The Twin Lakes Resort located in Hurley was the setting for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ulster County’s (CCEUC) Annual Dinner and Silent Auction on Friday, October 29, 2010. CCEUC teamed up with the Ulster County Farm Bureau once again for a combined annual event.
Each year, CCEUC recognizes individuals for their commitment and honors them with the Friends of Extension Award. This year’s Friends of Extension honorees were Richard Oldrey of Clintondale, Domino Farms of Accord, Steve and Julie Noble of Kingston and Ulster County Community Action Program of Highland accepted by Outreach Director, Tammie Brice and Ulster County Community Action Program of Ellenville accepted by Outreach Director, Rosemary Melendez. Certificate of Merit Awards were also given to the honorees from New York State Senator, John Bonacic.
The dinner and auction is a fund raiser to help CCEUC continue to bring community programming to Ulster County. The silent auction featured services and products showcasing nearly 50 businesses throughout Ulster County. The auction raised $2,000 for the association. Live entertainment was provided by Hudson Crossing.
