In small towns across America, the corner store is the heart of the community: the place to get everything you need, from gasoline to groceries to a hot lunch to the latest gossip.  Pawling’s Family Quick Stop is no exception, and maybe even more so, thanks to its owner Henry Schaber.       Lots of people in town know Henry.  Henry supports the local sports teams, gives many Pawling teens their first jobs, and is an active executive...

125 years in the making and the Pawling Shakespeare Club’s Birthday Bash on December 2nd did not disappoint!  With nearly 100 guests in attendance, food was plentiful (thanks to Vinny’s Catering), costumes worn by club members and guests alike were truly awesome, and the entertainment was fun, at times rollicking, and always engaging. Co-chaired by Carol-Lee Kantor and former club president Marie DeLorenzo, the auditorium in the Lathrop building at Lakeside Park was transformed into a...
