Orangeburg, NY – Elf Carolyn and the dedicated members of the Orangeburg Fire Association are collecting backpacks and school supplies for young children (ages 4-12) in Rockland County. The drive will take place on Saturday, August 10th, 2024, from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Orangeburg Fire House, located at 61 Dutch Hill Road.
