For the 47th year, members of the Charlotte Eleanor Englehart Hospital Auxiliary were on the streets of Petrolia, Wyoming and Reece’s Corners for TAG Days. The members were selling paper tax for a donation to show support for the Petrolia facility. Jane Cadman says last year $1,200 was raised during the one-day event.
