The Chamber of Southern Saratoga County’s Chamber Angels Committee would like to thank the following individuals for helping to fulfill the needs of 385 children during the 2010 holiday season. The success of the program would not have been possible without the help of many dedicated “angels” and we stand to applaud each and every one of you. We wish to extend a special thank you to the Clifton Park-Halfmoon Fire District #1 for donating the space for drop off and distribution of the gifts; to the staff and employees of Time Square in Clifton Park Center and the Mechanicville Community Center for their assistance with the “giving” trees and to all the anonymous people who took ornaments off the trees and returned beautiful gifts. A special thank you goes out to Wayne Beale and his entire team at Bentleys, The Rusty Nail and The Mill for their “Halo” sponsorship of the Chamber Angels Fundraising Event in November. This event raised the funds needed to shop for children without a direct sponsor.
