Journal:Canton Rents New Kayaks

Kayaks for Canton

 Mary Ann Ashley, Village Trustee is making a splash for the Canton Recreation Department. Mary Ann has donated her $3,500 yearly trustee salary to pay for the kayaks and life preservers to be used at the Canton Beach. I commend her efforts and believe she run for election because she cares for her community.

 I not sure but she was on or is still on the School Board for a few terms. Canton is a tight community and it is tough for outsides to make inroads but Mary Ann has done a great job and will do a her best for the residents of Canton.

 Mary Ann was quite a few years behind me in school but she is make a positive impact on her community. Good Luck Mary Ann!

Excellant gesture by Ms Ashley -- Kudos for leadership !!

If only Ogdensburg council members had that UNselfish attitudes and would donate their salaries back to the community . They do so very little for it anyway.

Many OTHER organizations with much larger budgets and responsibilities have Board members that volunteer more time and effort to the betterment of the city and receive NO salary or stipend, but do it for public service .
