Don’t ask. My sinus and ear are still in pain, so I’ll be going back to the doctor on Friday. In the months of February and March, I will be at the TownHall on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursays from 4 to 7 p.m. collecting taxes. If the weather is bad I will not be there.  If you need a weekend appointment, call first and set up a time with me.

There is a lot going on with Cochecton Youth Group. Check them out on Facebook under “New Cocheton Youth Commission.” CYC is looking for a new member. If interested give Sue a call at 845/866-0853.

I owe Barbara Drollinger an “oops, I’m sorry.” I told her that this thank you went in already. The members of the Narrowsburg Food Pantry, Toy Drive for local kids and St. Francis Outreach would like to thank everyone for their donations. All the donations are used at Christmas and throughout the year to help local families. God bless all who do volunteer work for our community. For those of you who did not know it, Barbara Drollinger started the food pantry in 1995, and the St. Francis Outreach Program in 2004. This world need more people like Barbara, and behind every woman is a great husband, thank you Bob.
