The Saugerties PTA and PTSA once again brought the excitement with the Harlem Wizards vs. members of the Saugerties staff basketball game at the High School gymnasium. Hundreds of Sawyers and their families packed the stands for not one, but two action-packed games this weekend, all to support Cahill Elementary and the Jr./Sr. High School.
