Carol and Bob Sadlon held back-to-back screenings of Ang Lee's Taking Woodstock at The Moviehouse in Millerton on Thursday, August 27, to benefit the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation, which does such good work for the residents of Berkshire, Columbia, Dutchess and Litchfield Counties. Between the shows, there was a reception in the theater's upstairs gallery, where an original 1969 "Three Days of Peace and Love" Woodstock poster was auctioned off for $1,800.
