 2. BRGN WELCOMES USEABLE DONATIONS:The Black River Good Neighbors’ thrift store and food shelf relies heavily on the generosity of its donors. The store sells donated merchandise and that allows us to provide free food and other assistance to those who need it. We deeply appreciate all of you who donate salable goods to us. You make our services viable. But not everyone is so kind. We cannot use items that really should go to the transfer station or some classes of items that for whatever reason we simply cannot use.

On a recent Sunday morning a grey hatchback backed up in our lot and, even though the donation shed was open and had lots of room, the driver and passenger dumped many boxes of smelly, broken and very worn items on the ground. The weather forecast called for rain, and rain it did. By the time our employees arrived on Monday whatever may have been useful was a junky mess. That gesture then cost us more than 33 dollars at the transfer station.

We don’t know whether these folks had a genuine intent to donate something useful to us, or if they were too cheap to pay the transfer station, but that really doesn’t matter. Their actions didn’t help us. We had to divert money from helping people to paying trash fees.

Our staff is ready to help with any donation. If they turn someone away it’s not because they are being mean. An item may have real value to the donor, but may still not be useable. Please come during store hours. Our staff can check out any donation and help determine what we can use. If you must come on Sunday, please use the donation shed. We want to help and we hate to turn people away.

3. RAISE THE ROOF CONCERT: BIG WOODS : Four voices, powerful medicine.  That's one way to describe Big Woods, the Vermont a cappella quartet of performers with a shared passion for close harmonies.  These veteran singers, musicians and composers will perform in Proctorsville's Raise the Roof concert series on Sunday October 14 at Gethsemane Church.  The pristine acoustics of the 1895 wooden church create the perfect setting for a cappella voices, making the music of Big Woods feel like hearing poetry on the wing.

 The group unites their diverse talents to perform music from traditions around the world and American roots genres---from heart stopping to foot stomping.   Big Woods is made up of Will Danforth, singer-songwriter and traditional acoustic artist; Becky Graber, director of the Brattleboro Women's Chorus and Animaterra Women's Chorus; Amanda Witman, founder of the wildly popular Brattleboro Pub Sing; and Alan Blood longtime bass singer for the Blanche Moyse Chorale, I Cantori and House Blend.  

 The concert begins at 4:00 at Gethsemane Church at 89 Depot Street.  Admission is $10.00 at the door.  What better way to spend a late fall Sunday afternoon.
