300th Anniversary celebration in Schoharie, NY looking for teamsters…

This came through my email this week…

“The Schoharie 300th Anniversray is this September 7 – 8 – 9. We would like to know if you can help us get the word out to the DAP Net folks. We are looking for draft powered vehicles to transport people from place to place. We have no money as our community has been devasted by the flood last fall so we would like to know who would be willing to help out. All we need is for them to register and provide a certificate of insurance. Drivers can charge what ever they want for people to ride. Drivers will have an ID Badge so folks know they are registered and insured. If there are folks who would like to provide draft animal demonstartions I am sure we can accommodate them. Anyone interested can email me rsherman4@nycap.rr.com for more information. Thank you so much!

This is the valley that suffered extreme Irene damage (see photo http://middleburgh.com/FLOOD.HTM), and was the bread basket of the Revolutionary War. Many farmers suffered huge devastating losses, entire fields of vegetables, corn and late alfalfa were lost, not to mention hundreds of animals and a few barns (fires started when 18′ of water reached the haylofts, and rescue workers could not get to barns). Many communities suffered terrible loss, but after months of rebuilding and still more to go, this community has much to celebrate. I donated a good amount of produce last fall to feed families and volunteers, please consider helping this community if you are close enough to participate with this celebration, they are good people and will greatly appreciate your efforts.
