Cavendish approves $2,000 to cover shortfall for MidSummer’s Night Salsa

The Cavendish Select Board voted unanimously Sept. 14 to provide $2,000 to organizers of the MidSummer’s Night Salsa to cover a remaining shortfall from the July street event. Town Manager Rick Chambers told the board the event’s expenses totaled $5,930.47, organizers raised $2,710 in ticket and food sales and received $1,300 in donations, leaving a $1,920.47 deficit; Shannon Devereux moved to send the $2,000 previously approved and Dave Norton seconded the motion. "They submitted an expense summary and this covers the balance," Chambers said.
