Baldwinsville Volunteer Firefighter Jeffrey Bordwell raises Canton Woods Senior Center’s new flagpole with the flags of the United States and New York State attached as Ed Barlow (center) and Frank Lushia, the president and vice president of senior activities at Canton Woods, respectively, watch. Many attended the ceremony held Friday May 20 including Sen. John DeFrancisco, who presented the center with the New York State flag, and Assemblyman William Magnarelli, who presented the center with the United States flag. “These flags will fly proudly over our center,” Barlow said. To kick off the ceremony, Mayor Joseph Saraceni read a proclamation to the crowd dedicating May as Older Americans Month. “Take time this month to honor our older residents,” Saraceni said.
