Some shots that we took, or had submitted to us, from Cornwall and area.

Doug McNaughton thought it would be a great idea to begin a fundraising campaign for Hospice at McConnell Manor.  He was hoping to raise $5,000. His birthday is in September and asked if the Manor could designate September Hospice month. The money raised at special events and donations from residents almost tripled the initial goal. They were pleased to present $14,061.00 to Carefor Hospice Cornwall.
