Missing Sodus If you had the chance to see the Larry Moss's balloon display, please let me know what it was like. It sounded like the festival was going to be a lot of fun. And if you have any pictures you've taken at events, please send them along to me as well. Pictures are always fun to look at. On July 21 the Sodus Bay Heights Golf Club had their 6th Annual Golf Tournament. The tournament is in memory of Randy Aceto who tragically passed away on August 30, l997 in a boating accident. Randy of Ashley Insurance in Williamson was a fellow businessman and friend to many. A Memorial Scholorship has been established at the Williamson Central School.

Did I forget anything? If you have information you'd like to see posted in the column, please send it along to me and I'll be happy to add it for you: Have a great week. Have fun helping the kids reach their goals in the reading programs . When it's nice out gather a handful of books and spend some time reading. It's amazing how many you can go through in a short time and it's enjoyable to read outside. A great one to look for is Jackalope by Janet Stevenson and her sister Susan Stevenson Crummel. They have an amazing sense of humor. Copyright
