About 400 elementary- and middle-school students taking part in the Shenendehowa Inventors program will display their inventions at the former Cotton Market store at Clifton Park Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
I’m glad the rants of small group didn’t prevent this necessary service from helping the community. With only 6 parents opting out of the 8th grade class, it shows a desire to move forward and educate the next generation to break this cycle of STD’s and teen pregnancy.
Since the early 1970's, The National Family Planning Program, had been strongly supported by all Democratic and Republican administrations, until recently. It has also received broad bi-partisan support in Congress.. Each year, publicly funded programs help avert 1.3 million pregnancies and 632,000 abortions. As far as “parental rights“, this program is optional, no one is forced to take it. The class is only given to those kids who’s parents sign to opt-in to the program. With Montgomery County having the second highest teen pregnancy rate in the state, this program is needed. It would seem that this small group is trying to keep Planned Parenthood classes from those parents who do want this program.
Gloversville has it all!!! (Unfortunately, it also has a few negative residence.) You can live in a small city and yet be 10 minutes away from hunting, fishing, hiking, golf courses, and a huge winter sports area. It truly is a year round haven for outdoor life. Lakes, ponds, rivers, trails, mountain views and cool running streams. A 29 mile long lake is just 15 minutes away which once held the worlds record Northern Pike. Snowmobiles, cross country skiing, ice fishing, down hill skiing and snowshoeing in winter… Sailing, fishing, hiking, golf, in summer. Less time driving to places and more time outdoors!
