Builders Club Participates in Heart-a-thon

Again this year, the Monticello Middle School Builders Club members showed that they have warm, caring hearts by participating in the annual WSUL/WVOS Heart-a-thon.

They sold paper hearts and raised $85. This was a huge accomplishments considering the number of days that school was either cancelled or dismissed early due to inclement weather during the past few weeks, making it more challenging for them to perform their "sales pitch" to family, friends and teachers, but they persevered and did a great job.

Al Frangipane, the "Heart Man" representing Catskill Regional Medical Center (CRMC), was a guest at the Feb. 15 Builders Club meeting and thanked the members and their School Advisor, Bill Oefelein, for their contribution. The money will go toward an important piece of equipment in the Harris and Callicoon sites of CRMC.
