Fair Parking
We had a pretty successful parking this year. We collected over $3000.00 for parking, and after expenses we ended
up making over $2700.00. We had a fairly big expense in the new signs and the weather didn't co-operate on two
nights, but all in all we did well.

Our Club and The Salvation Army Cafe
Well it's September and we are at the time when we have to decide whether or not we, as a club, will continue to help support the Salvation Army Cafe. It seems that there only is a small group that comes to help out on our "once a month" day to cook and serve a meal to those who are less fortunate than us. Those that come to eat at the S A Cafe on a regular basis, look forward to our club coming in to cook for them.
some thought from this mornings meeting. It was always thought that this would br a great way to get to do something to do together with the Key Club on a regular basis. We are a service organization and we are to do services to our community and those who need help. This kind of activity would help strengthen our ties with our sponsored clubs. It is one thing to sit back and just write out checks and give them to this and that group, it means a lot more to say we did this to help this group or that one.
It's time to shit or get off the pot.
We are going to go ahead with The S A Cafe for September. We will try it again this month . What we want is a commitment from each and every member to help out at least once . or twice. It's only one Monday a month. Thats twelve days in a whole year. We know it's a bad time, 5 to 7 PM . But if you can't come to help set up and cook, at least you might be able to come to help clean up. We need people to commit to helping out one day or two days during the whole year. It's not that much time and it is a worthy cause. So sign up to do a day or two. Send me an email, or come to a meeting to commit.

Tiffany
Tiffany Pugliese was diagnosed with Wilm's Tumor in May 2005, when she was just 6 years old.
In November 2005 she found out she was cancer free, until May of this year when she relapsed and is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatments at University Hospital in Syracuse. Wilm's Tumor is a rare form of childhood
cancer that affects the kidneys. In 2005, Pugliese underwent a nine-hour surgery to remove one kidney along with her tumor, “which was the size of a grapefruit,” according to doctors. She had 42 lesions on her lungs and was
classified as having Stage IV cancer, the highest stage, which means the cancer has spread to another organ. After the surgery she had quite a long recovery. She underwent eight radiation treatments and 24 weeks of
chemotherapy.
She was cancer free for 18 months. However, in May, another nodule was found on her lung and a biopsy found she had a recurrence.
She's just 8 years old and this is extremely difficult for her, the cancer requires frequent hospital stays, often five days every two week. Pugliese suffers from fevers, low blood counts, and has to have many blood transfusions.
Pugliese will be entering third grade this year at Benton Hall Academy in Little Falls.
To help offset the costs of the treatment, a benefit is being held for Pugliese on Oct. 28 from 1-7 p.m. at the Best Western in Little Falls. The cost is $10 per ticket and children under 5 are free. There will be food, music, games,
raffles, door prizes, a Chinese auction, karaoke, a clown for the children, a kids' corner and more.
On Sept. 8 there is a Little Falls vs. Dolgeville football game at Little Falls and all proceeds from the raffles will go to benefit Pugliese.
On Sept. 23 the Holy Family Parish in Little Falls is holding a breakfast at the church from 9 a.m. to noon with proceeds going to Pugliese.
Oct. 20 will be “teeing off for Tiffany” which is a golf tournament in Little Falls with tee times at 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
Also at Benton Hall, there is a common cents program where at the end of each month the grade level that brings in the most extra change gets a prize. One month has been dedicated to Pugliese and the proceeds from that month
will be donated to her. The school will do “trick-or-treating for Tiffany,” where students dress up and collect donations for her, and also a “tree for Tiffany” where students and community members will be able to buy ornaments
off a Christmas tree with proceeds going to the Pugliese fund.
To make a donation to help Pugliese and her family, checks should be made payable to “Michelle L. Miller for benefit of Tiffany Pugliese,” and should be sent to 18 Gordon Ave., Herkimer, 13350.
For more information call 866-3145, 823-1582, or 823-3053.
