Pennies count - Brockport Rotary President Andy Pacitto (l) looks on as Jerry Hagadorn displays a coffee can filled with $20 in pennies that he donated to the Salvation Army. After donating folding money, Hagadorn asked if Pacitto would take pennies. He then traveled five miles back home to retrieve the pennies. The Brockport Rotary, Lions and Kiwanis Clubs work successive Sundays in December and enjoy a friendly competition to determine who raises the most money. Last year Rotary won. These moneys eventually come back to the Brockport area to serve the local community.
