Charities Well Represented at 300th

A series of charities brought their message of giving to both the 300th Anniversary and Arts and Crafts festivals in Middleburgh. Storm Aid 2011 has been raising thousands of dollars for affected residents of four Upstate counties since Irene and was represented by various members.

So was Fields of Grace Outreach, which has helped many lives with its Rooms of Hope program. Also represented was Project Hope.
