So this Sunday is the big day! Do you watch the Super Bowl in your house? I may not be a fan of the teams each year, but I am a fan of the commercials! I am team commercial.  I have loved commercials ever since I was little, my mom used to call me the commercial kid! So we will have a low key party here with our boys.  But before the Super Bowl, my family has always watched the Puppy Bowl. It is absolutely adorable  at 2 p.m., on Animal Planet.

If you love animals like we do, you will want to hear about this next fundraiser.  JT's Cycle in Cobleskill has put together an amazing fundraiser for the Animal Shelter of Schoharie Valley.  They are raffling a motorcycle! For $20 you get a ticket and help animals in need! JT has had his business for 20 years this year! He is located next to the CRCS school bus garage,  in the old V.F. W. building.  Stop in to see him, support his business and grab you ticket today. 

Snowmobile riders :The property located at 857 West Hill Rd in Worcester is not part of the snowmobile trail, but people are riding on it again this year. This property is an active, year round shooting range. The property owner is tired of the trespassing, doesn’t want to see anyone get hurt, and has just put up trail cams to catch people riding the property and to pursue trespassing charges. ( This is the orginal message posted on The Sharon Pathfinders Facebook page.)

I hope you are all staying safe, warm, and happy!♡♡♡
