Chenango Council of the Arts Cancels Pig Roast

The Chenango County Council of the Arts had a fundraiser planned for May 19 to raise funds for the grants for teachers program, but due to unusual circumstances the 2nd annual pig roast will not be held.

Executive director of the Chenango County Council of the Arts Victoria Kapel says it has already reached 84 percent of their goal and will not need the pig roast this year.

Over the last 10 years the Arts Council has given nearly $30,000 to area schools. Kapel says enjoy the Sunday off, but remember to send in your donation to 27 West Main St. in Norwich for arts related programs in local schools.
