Margaretville Remembrance Day - Hurricaine Irene 08 30 12 from VeccVideography on Vimeo.

"On Thu., Aug. 30, the village of Margaretville came together to reflect on the Irene floods. Local videographer Jess Vecchione produced the video above, using footage taken at the ceremony. In it, she juxtaposes shots of the incredible devastation wreaked on the village of Margaretville a year ago with the voices of prominent local citizens talking about where Margaretville is today. Middletown supervisor Marge Miller talks about why the ceremony of remembrance was held: "We really needed something to say, 'We've made it, we're here, we still have struggles and concerns, but we're getting there.'"
