On Saturday, December 9, Wallenpaupack Area High School’s Volunteers in Paupack assisted with the festivities downtown. Volunteers gave tours of the Vault240, an “Exclusively Inclusive Members Only Club” that is part of the Settler’s Hospitality Group. Volunteers also gave tours of the historical Downtown Hawley Partnership building and assisted with horse and carriage rides.
The Paupack Press held a bake sale to raise funds for team jackets. Reporters volunteered time to bake and donate to the sale.
