Summer Plans:
It’s not too early to be thinking about summer plans for your children such as camps and other recreational opportunities. It’s especially important for Franklin County residents who might be looking for financial assistance to support these plans. The Warner Fund offers such support but the deadline for applications is April 1st. If you are interested in a Warner Fund application or more information please contact me at 527-0565 or dennys@sacsvt.org.
