The Twin Lakes Resort located in Hurley was the setting for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ulster CountyÂ’s Annual Dinner and Silent Auction on Friday, November 13, 2009. CCEUC teamed up with the Ulster County Farm Bureau once again for a combined annual event.
Each year, CCEUC recognizes individuals for their immeasurable hours of volunteering and honors them with the Friends of Extension Award. This yearÂ’s Friends of Extension honorees were Phillies Bridge Farm in Gardiner, Peggy Lapp of Accord, Chester Karwatowski of West Shokan, Lucky C Stables, Inc. in New Paltz and SUNY Ulster in Stone Ridge, which was accepted by SUNY Ulster Vice President, Ann Marrott.
The dinner and auction is a fund raiser to help CCEUC continue to bring free community programming to Ulster County. The silent auction featured services and products showcasing over 50 businesses throughout Ulster County. The auction raised $2,310 for the association. Live entertainment was provided by Rich Hines and the Hillbilly Drifters.
