| This is the first I time I became aware of the guestbook. I am ashamed to say that it is only because I was sending the information to a friend to brag about the Town of Bethel and how far we have come since he last visited us way back when. It is a wonderful idea and thanks for the opportunity to sign. |

| Still looking for anyone who may have known Barney Schechter in White Lake, NY about 1930’s. He owned a farm next door to Woodstock property and we believe the farm was called Schechter’s Guest House. If anyone has any information about Barney, his wife Minnie or daughters Fannie/Faye or Eva please let me know. |
