On April 26 Boy Scout Troop 222 of Petersburgh provided Scouts and a leader to assist the members of the Petersburgh Veterans Memorial Community Center (PVMCC) serve a lasagna dinner to the public. The Scouts helped set up tables and chairs, worked with the cooks to serve over 100 dinners, cleared tables and cleaned up afterwords. Local Legislator Stan Brownell and his wife stopped by along with many other elected officials and Veterans from the area to support the cause and enjoy a wonderful lasagna dinner.
[private]The dinner was made possible by generous food contributions from Stewart’s, Price Chopper, Starry Ridge Farm and a number of local bakers.
Nearly $900 was raised from ticket sales and donations, including the $53 that Tim Church won in the 50/50 raffle. The Hall is still actively looking for donations for the Honor Roll. If anyone would like to donate directly to the fund you may send your checks to the:
