Last month, members of the Orenda Garden Club visited Universal Preservation Hall, located at 25 Washington Street in downtown Saratoga Springs, to present a donation check of $1,000 to Teddy Foster, Board President of UPH. Longtime supporters of this historic arts and community events facility, the Orenda Garden Club's most recent gift is designated for landscaping that will be done to the Community Plaza, which is the front of the venue. As "orenda" is an Iroquois name meaning "magic power", it is not surprising to learn that the Orenda Garden Club has bestowed its "magic" on many worthy local charitable causes, and member of the UPH Board are grateful for their ongoing support.
