Members of the Retired Senior Volunteer Program were recently recognized for their service to the Children's Center at Chautauqua County Family Court in Mayville.
The center is funded by a grant from the Unified Court System and operated by the Family Services division of Chautauqua Opportunities Inc.
"We would like to publicly thank our awesome volunteers here at the Children's Center," said Debby Ruland, site supervisor. "They work with the children in such a heartwarming way; it's just a joy to watch them develop special relationships. They are simply the best."
