The event will take place on Sunday, August 21, 2022, from 1:00-3:00pm. at Clay Historical Park, 4939 Route 31, Clay. Farfaglia’s books have covered memorable events such as the Blizzard of ’66 and its impact on Central New York; the Nestlé factory in Fulton, for decades the largest
chocolate-making facility in North America; the muck farms of Oswego County, one of
the few places in the world where this organic-rich method of farming takes place; and
the Oswego County Search & Rescue Team, the first professional volunteer search
team in the Eastern United States.
“I select topics for my books that are not only unique to Central New York but will also
evoke rich memories,” said Farfaglia. “In the case of the Blizzard of ’66, I interviewed
200 people who managed their way through the storm. With the Nestlé book, I talked to
workers from every department that produced the one million pounds of product
produced daily during the factory’s heyday. I research my books’ topics for accuracy, of
course, but equally important to me is to hear from those who know my subject
firsthand.”
Farfaglia illustrates his books with photographs that also tell a topic’s story. During his
Clay Historical Association presentation he will share a slideshow showcasing the
blizzard’s impact, the art of chocolate-making, search & rescue team efforts and farming
on muck land. The program will also include the opportunity for questions and
comments from the audience.
“I look forward to spending time with the Clay Historical Association to discuss my
previous books and to offer a sneak preview of my new book, due out in October, which
covers Historic Snowstorms of Central New York. For this book, I searched as far back
as the 1780s to uncover stories of how local folks survived some of our biggest winter
storms. I can’t wait to share what I discovered!

Music for the Mission is a non profit organization formed by Joe Stanley of Joe Stanley Law and his team 4 years ago. They partner with and support organizations such as the Rescue Mission, Salvation Army, ARISE, Urban Mission and more.

People have lost their homes. They’ve lost their jobs, their livelihoods, their dignity. Look at the person sitting next to you. This person is educated, bright, maybe lives in the suburbs, supports a family of four.One misstep and your neighbor could be reaching out to The Mission next month for help. There are many wonderful causes and charities you and your business can donate to. Today we ask you to consider helping to fulfill the most basic of human needs: food and shelter.

“We’ll keep fighting and doing everything we can to get this man what he rightfully deserves… his own identity!” says Joe Stanley. “There are countless stories I’ve learned and I’ve worked to help make right or make some measure of difference over the years. We have to put a face on the homeless and the hungry. It’s not just happening to ‘that guy or that bum’. Many of these people had productive lives, families, homes. A loss of a job, a bad divorce, the loss of a spouse, there are so many reasons why this happens to someone. No one is immune! You just can’t sit back and think ‘it’ll never happen to me’.

Let’s fight this together because that is the only way we will win this battle!

Joe Stanley

Founder of Music For The Mission
