Greetings!
School
is out! It's time for beach vacations and
bar-b-ques! But for some small business
owners in Gardiner it's time to gear up for the
tourist season. College students are
replaced by retirees, skiers by climbers.
No rest for the weary. With all that in
mind, we promise to make this newletter short
and sweet.
We
have some exciting events just over the horizon
- and before you know it winter will be
back!

GAB
News
 Our first scholarships
were presented by GAB President, Leitha M.
Ortiz-Lesh, to two graduating seniors from our
local school districts: Michael Nelson
from Wallkill Central School District (pictured
here with his parents David and Melissa); and
Joseph Ridgeway from New Paltz Central School
District. Michael will begin school in the
fall at Universal Technical Institute in Exton,
PA in his pursuit of a career as an auto
technician. Joseph has already taken his
DOT exam to reach his goal of becoming
a Union Welder. These career choices
require tools and supplies that come at a
very high price. We are happy to be able
to assist these future entrepreneurs in
realizing their dreams.
