The Oriskany Falls Rotary Club gathered together on Wednesday evening to check and prep the wreathes that will beautify the Oriskany Falls, Madison, and Bouckville area.  They shared this information and reminder that makes each light a bit more beautiful.
Thank you!
 The Rotary wreathes are nearly 40 years old, and will light up Madison, Oriskany Falls and Bouckville. Our friends at Heritage Farms refurbished our bulbs and greens in the past couple of years. This years Rotary International theme is Rotary Connects the World. As you look up this year, think of all the lights around the world that connect humanity in service.Ours will light up our little corner of the world, once again.
