Chester Rotarians raise funds for scholarships By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com CHESTER — When the Chester Andover Elementary School’s Parent Teacher Association asked the Chester Rotary Club to sell food at the organization’s annual End of School Year Picnic, the Rotary’s board of directors approved the project and committed to donate profits to the school’s Summer Camp Scholarship Fund. Rotarians, including Pat Budnick and Karen Trombley and others, sold hot dogs, cheeseburgers, watermelon, soda and more to the parents and children who attended the picnic. Budnick said, “The turnout of helpers was outstanding. There were times we could not have met the orders had it not been for all of the willing hands.” “It just goes to show what Rotary can do to help the community,” Trombley added. After all the bills were paid approximately $300 was raised. All of the money was presented to the school counselor, Nicole McEnany. “This is a wonderful contribution and it will go a long way to help local children,” McEnany said.

Cooler temperatures are expected to prevail around the Outlook region this week.

Keep the customer satisfied! Satin & Steel’s jazz-rock fusion By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com CASTLETON — Jazz-rock horn bands—typified by powerhouses such as Chicago, Blood, Sweet and Tears, Chase, Tower of Power, Don Ellis Orchestra, Buddy Rich and His Big Band, among others—reached their chartbusting zenith during the early 1970s. While they faded in popularity, they always maintained a fan base. Perhaps for certain babyboomers like me, there was that exciting fusion of cool and brash jazz, hard rock and blues with roots going back to the early swing bands of the 1920s. That same excitement, I believe, is being rediscovered by a younger generation weaned on hip-hop nihilism, repetitive rock, and the lack of pop in 21st century America. You can hear the music again. ...Turn to page 7 to read the full story
