Best Week Ever Kenny Manley is definitely having the Best Week Ever after winning the draw for the Rotary's Grocery Grab this past weekend! Kenny was running for a family that is doubled up due to a house fire earlier in the year. The total of goods grabbed equalled $728.25 plus a gift card for a holiday meal from McKeever's Price Chopper! Money raised from the event will go to local scholarships and community projects.

Coming Soon Watch for renovations to begin at our McKeever's Price Chopper after the first of the year. The store won't be closing during renovations, but sections may be blocked off while updates are being made!
