The Amish and Mennonite families in our community around the Finger Lakes Live Steamers are huge supporters of our club. Please see the story below and if you are able to help we know they would greatly appreciate it.Family in Need: Many of you heard about the horrific crash on August 9th in the Finger Lakes Region when a Mennonite family of seven were thrown from their buggy near Benton, NY when a car collided with them (Photo by Lucas Day/Finger Lakes Daily News). The mother and father, along with all five children, sustained a multitude of injuries. The horse was euthanized at the sight of the accident, the buggy was destroyed—four medical helicopters responded and transported the family to Strong Hospital in Rochester. Bob Ament alerted me of a GoFundMe page to assist this family and already over $10,000 has been raised. Neighbors have been helping with the family farm, the local community has stepped up in a big way. I’m including the link to the fundraiser here. The medical bills this family faces are enormous, they need help on many fronts. Any act of generosity from my followers here would be greatly appreciated. And thanks to Bob Ament for spearheading this effort. Here’s the link:

So sorry to hear this but your health comes first
I too am saddened by the closure but may I suggest posting videos of members running their units (Covid safe of coarse) in its stead? I for one would still love to see them running. Even the O gauge. Thank you.
Stay safe we will see you next year!
Sorry to hear Fall Open House is also cancelled. We were really hoping schedules would be back to normal by then.
Had to be but still sad
Staying safe is more important. Can’t wait to visit next year.
Sad
Looking forward to next year!
