Superintendent thanks A-P-W community for supporting Stuff-A-Bus
Without the United Way, the PTSA and the business and individual donations, the required supplies would not be available. And without the dedicated and hardworking members of the APW staff and the local community, the event could not happen.

Bev Wilcox Remembered
Bev Wilcox, a friend of ours and certainly a friend to many others, recently passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. Bev worked as a greeter at the Granby Wal-Mart so it seems fitting that as people walked through the front door, they observed a small table upon which a vase with flowers and her name tag ~ BEV ~ was placed at the spot where she would have stood.

Quality Workforce In Fulton
The recent announcement by Mayor Woodward and the city of Fulton Common Council of the upcoming retirement of our City Clerk/Chamberlain Jim LaBoda and his replacement by the current DPW Water and Sanitation Commissioner Dan O’Brien has prompted me to review some of the many adjustments that have been made over the last few years to our city workforce that were necessary through operating cutbacks by attrition and the operating flexibility of some of our departments.

Midway Drive-In Theatre Rebuilding Fundraiser A Huge Success
I’m pleased to report to you that our initial weekend fundraiser/T-shirt sale at the Midway and Harborfest was a fantastic success. The support from the community was amazing and my girls from Troop 10101- so dedicated – so professional, exceeded their goal for T-shirt/bracelet sales by selling out of product on Saturday (1,300 T-shirts and 1,000 bracelets) and then resorting to taking orders for additional shirts on Sunday.

Midway Drive-In Seeks Help Of Community To Rebuild
While we have been questioning the future of the drive-in there has been a seemingly endless stream of automobiles pulling over to the side of the road or pulling into the driveway with folks getting out of their cars to stand quietly and to gaze upon the mangled screen tower, as though at a wake paying their final respects; many capturing photos for remembrance. There has been an amazing outpouring from the community through personal emails, visits at the theatre and through social media.

An Open Letter To The People Of Our Community In The Diocese of Syracuse
Yet another headline: 52,000 unaccompanied children caught crossing the border since October. I read it again and reflect on each word: 52,000…unaccompanied…children…caught…crossing…border. It does not seem to make sense. Questions immediately come to mind. What are the children running from? Where are they running to? Where are their mothers and fathers?
