April showers bring May flowers, of course! However, despite the torrential rain and the loud snappy lightening, eight brave people turned out for our April meeting.
Our very reliable Treasurer, Nancy Beebe, had all her records in tip top shape for the Exec. Comm. Report. That amazing Norman Stitham has done it again. He published a booklet about our Grange, facts from years ago, answers to many questions, all laminated and bound. He has also made fabulous posters advertising our campaign to collect old towels, blankets, leashes, collars and cat and dog food to be donated to the rescue facility in Old Lyme. They do such a wonderful service rescuing animals.
Amy Winninger, our representative to the Cub Scouts, attended their Blue and Gold Banquet and presented the Scouts with a generous check. Our Grange has sponsored the Cub Scouts for many, many years.
Our food and plant sale, May 20 is well published. We hold it the same day as the church across the street holds their rummage sale. The flow of traffic is good.
The snow drops that came up in Feb. and got frozen in March, have gone by without opening their buds into flowers.
However, the daffodils seem to have survived and are showing yellow. Hooray for spring! |
