Subzero Heroes ice jump

HIGHLAND, NY — On Saturday, February 8, the Alzheimer’s Association Hudson Valley Chapter will hold its 10th annual Subzero Heroes ice jump at Berean Lake. Check-in begins at 10:30 a.m. and the jumping starts at 12 noon.

The event will kick off with a Zumba warmup exercise led by an instructor from Gold’s Gym in LaGrange. Participants will have access to a variety of refreshments, and the event will also feature a costume contest. Heroes must raise a raise a minimum of $200 to take the plunge; they will jump into the lake to show their support for families living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. 

Those who would like to support the cause by backing a Hero may visit www.subzeroheroes.org to make a donation. 

For more information, contact communications manager Dugan Radwin at dradwin@alz.org or 845/471-2655. For more information about the Alzheimer’s Association, visit www.alz.org.

‘It’s Milking Time’ donated to public libraries 

WAYNE AND PIKE COUNTIES — The Wayne/Pike Farm Bureau has donated the “FARM-tastic book of the year,” “It’s Milking Time,” to all of the public libraries of Wayne and Pike counties. 

Written by Phyllis Alsdurf, the book follows a young girl and her father through evening farm chores. With illustrations by Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher, the book provides an accurate description of a dairy farm, making it easy for children to understand where milk comes from.
