Last weekend SWC and NNYP volunteers staffed tables at the ADK Spring Expo, in Saratoga. The large show offers us an opportunity to share what we are about with hundreds of interested visitors and also to acquaint ourselves with other clubs, organizations and public entities that all have the common goal of promoting enjoyment of outdoor activities. It was a wonderful two days and I want to say “thank you” to everyone who volunteered. Read more.
