During their Oktoberfest event, the Clarkson Democratic Committee honored Charles and Mary Edwards (left) for their community service in the Town of Clarkson. Theresa Alano (right) gifted her first place Bicentennial Quilt to the couple. Charles thanked his wife, Mary, along with Kermit and Pam Mercer, who were in attendance, while also naming many others who restored Clarkson Academy building to the educational center and open historical building that it is today. Past Clarkson Supervisor, Jerry Underwood, donated the materials for the new floors in the building. The Edwards also thanked Sheldon Meyers for his support through the years to the Academy and being the original organizer and current supporter of their 5K fundraiser.
