NORTH ROYALTON, Ohio Two PTA members for the North Royalton City Schools have been awarded the Ohio PTA Achievement Award after being nominated by fellow PTA members.
The Ohio PTA Achievement Award was created to provide an opportunity to celebrate individuals who have rendered outstanding service to children and youth.
In January, the North Royalton High School PTA presented this award to two outstanding volunteers: Laurie Weiser, who was nominated by Leslie Stetler and Ashley DeAngelis; and Debbie Sexton, who was nominated by Becky Cozzens and Cristina Hornik.
CATSKILL â In its sixth year, the Creekside Restaurantâs adopt-a-family fundraiser continues to celebrate the gift of giving.
Creekside is supporting 10 families and 33 children through the Matthew 25 Food Pantry this year. Patrons at Creekside and community members contribute to the annual fundraiser by purchasing a star and Creekside owner Sean Meagher matches the donations. This year, $2,400 was raised in donations, bringing the total to $4,800.
Although Creekside had to forgo some holiday traditions due to the pandemic, such as its ugly sweater contest, the fundraiser was a success, Meagher said.
âPeople were more generous than ever,â Meagher said.
The fundraiser kicked off around Thanksgiving and the stars are on display at the restaurant through Christmas, Meagher said.
