December 9, 2010 BAH
At Adirondack Bank

The Trenton Chamber of Commerce held its annual Christmas Business After-Hours on December 9. Once again this year, the event was a fundraiser for the Foothills Rural Community Ministry.

The event sponsor was Adirondack Bank of Holland Patent and Adirondack Bank Insurance. A number of people showed up at the branch with new, unwrapped toys for the “Adopt a Family” program through the Foothills Ministry. Guests were asked to bring a toy for their admission rather than the usual $5 entry charge. A basket raffle was held for a variety of gift baskets generously donated by local businesses. And again this year, Adirondack Bank matched all of the proceeds at the door and from the raffle and more than $1,200 was raised and donated to Foothills to be used for the Food Basket Program.

Representatives from the organization were on hand to receive the donations and toys.

Thank you to all of our members and everyone involved in making this such a successful event.

Guests enjoyed delicious foods and beverages and of course networking. Special thanks to Kelly Smith and her staff at the Holland Patent branch of Adirondack Bank for their efforts.

Also at the Business After Hours, the winner of the fuel raffle was announced. Bill Bandych of Barneveld held the lucky winning ticket and has chosen to receive 100 gallons of fuel oil provided by Remsen City Fuels. More than $1,000 was raised for the chamber with this annual fundraiser. Thank you to all members for selling tickets and to those who supported us.
