NEW SCOTLAND — William Z. Childs, 20, of Voorheesville, was arrested on March 19 for second-degree criminal trespass, a misdemeanor, according to a release from the New York State Police.

The Voorheesville Dionysians are producing a “Mary Poppins” musical that is, as director Robert Whiteman put it “entertaining on the surface” but rife with complex relationships to explore beneath.

Last Friday evening, March 10, Voorheesville Elementary held a Dance-a-thon at the High school to help raise funds for the new playground.

It was a perfect setting for the Voorheesville Blackbirds last Saturday evening. The regional championship was played at home, before an enthusiastic crowd, and the team was 19 and 0.

Francis Reilly believes his years as a teacher and his years mentoring teachers will help him to be a compassionate business administrator for the Voorheesville schools.

It was business as usual for the Voorheesville boys’ volleyball team in the Class C/D sectional semifinal and final.

Cynthia Elliott doesn’t mind another month’s delay on her 2015 application to have a venue for parties on her Brownrigg Road property, saying, “ I want the board to have an opportunity to reach their best decision.”

Excitement in the quarterfinal games led the Berne-Knox-Westerlo girls’ and Voorheesville boys’ basketball teams to heart-wrenching losses in their respective semifinal games on Monday and Tuesday evenings.
