Are UPS and Amazon Holding Castletonians' Packages Hostage?
Notice from Castleton-on-Hudson & Schodack; General Discussion
It has become obvious that we need to take action to stop UPS from misdirecting our packages to the Amazon Warehouse where the mysterious person "Woods" allegedly signs for them and keeps them there for days or even weeks. It appears more than 100 Castleton residents have been affected. Some have had food deliveries delayed by a week causing the food to rot. Others have had expensive items withheld. Still others have not received gifts sent to them. This has to stop.
I have created an online petition here: https://www.ipetitions.com/.../stop-ups-and-amazon-from...
Let's continue to raise awareness and put pressure on managers and officials until this is resolved. I am tired of this happening to us all! Thanks.
We, the residents and supporters of Castleton, demand that UPS stop delivering packages addressed to residents to the Amazon warehouse, where they are kept for days or weeks. Our packages should be delivered to the places they are addressed to and signed for by the actual residents, not some mythical Amazon employee by the name of "Woods" who is always listed by UPS as the signatory for these misdirected deliveries. In addition, we demand that the Schodack Town Supervisor's Office, headed by Supervisor David Harris, investigate this egregious situation and act to resolve it with UPS and the Amazon warehouse management.
Hi Neighbors,

Vaxications
'Vaxications,' catch-up trips and pent-up demand fuel travel surge
From cruises to campsites, summer is already almost fully booked
By Harriet Baskas
A growing wave of relaxed restrictions, along with an increasing number of vaccinated Americans, is leading to a surge in “vaxications” and other trips, after a year of pandemic-induced lockdowns.
Mothballed restaurants, hotels and attractions, canceled cruise seasons and record low airline passenger traffic are making way for a brisk uptick in travel plans, with around half of Americans set to take a trip in the next three months, according to an analysis from the U.S. Travel Association.
“There is a substantial pent-up desire to travel. Families have not hugged or spent time together.”
Travel experts say anyone wishing to take a trip should be exercising caution, especially in light of the CDC's recommendation that travel be avoided where possible, even for passengers who are vaccinated.
