At their annual spring luncheon in May, the Schuyler Hospital Auxiliary named their Volunteer of the Year and voted in new officers.
Betty Vinti was named Volunteer of the Year for taking magazines and books around to Seneca View residents weekly, assuring that November Splendor attendees sign the historical “doctors’ dance” book, and helping out with a variety of events and activities.
Vinti is a long-time Auxiliary member and current Historian, and does so much more in the community – including supporting the Schuyler Health Foundation, the Montour Falls Memorial Library, the Schuyler County Humane Society, the Clemens Center, The Arts of the Southern Finger Lakes, and Orchestra of the Southern Finger Lakes.
For the Endless Mountain Music Festival, she has served as Director, Vice President, and board member. She is an adjunct professor at Keystone College in La Plume, PA; and a former adjunct instructor with Penn State and Mansfield University, teaching subjects including writing, speech, communications, literature, and business writing.
Officers voted in at the event include: Sharon Malick, President; Sally Armbruster, First Vice-President; Kitty Shallenberger, Second Vice-President; Anne Myers, Secretary; and Rita Tague-Carmony, Treasurer.

what our patients are saying
“I have to say the last couple visits that I’ve had here have been wonderful. About a month ago I had an EGD and the staff were amazing! Explained everything in detail and made me feel at ease. I was very nervous and the nurse I had was very comforting. Tonight we had to take my son to the emergency room and they were awesome with him! We got right in. “
“I have had many occasions visiting CMC for myself and family. We have never had a bad experience there at all. Last October I had surgery and the nurses were amazing especially my night nurse. Thank you to all CMC staff for doing what you do every day with a smile.”
“I have been a Hemo dialysis patient for almost Five years. Prior to dialysis and during dialysis I have had several trips to the ER, due to other health issues & was admitted to CMC more than a few times. Each and every time I’ve been there, whether in patient or out, I have been treated with respect, professionalism, and efficiency. I give this hospital 2 thumbs up!! Thank you CMC for taking care of me all these years!!”
“The staff and accommodations at Cayuga Birthplace are amazing!!! This is what it I imagine it would feel like to be a celebrity getting VIP treatment. I wish I could stay longer – even the food options are 5 Star! The amenities are great. Everything is clean and designed beautifully. Not a single complaint, only praises!”
