The money was donated from the proceeds of the Annual Mother’s Day concert, which featured the Hudson Valley Winds performing Sergei Prokofiev’s “Peter and the Wolf,” Camille Saint-Saens’ “Carnival of the Animals” and Maurice Ravel’s “Mother Goose Suite. AFM musicians involved were: Marcia Gates, flute; Joël Evans, oboe; Larry Tietze, clarinet; Janet Lantz, horn; Jeffrey Marchand, bassoon; Ruthanne Schempf, piano; Nanette Koch, narrator; and Carole Cowan, artistic director.
