Halloween Party 2007

Grounds Committee

The Grounds Committee met Tuesday night and plans have been made to meet at the Club at 10:00 AM on Tuesday, October 2 to prepare the grounds for the spring. If you are interested in doing some outdoors work, please feel welcome to come. We would like to start plants that provide food for our animal sisters and brothers. We are also planning to create a pumpkin patch come spring. During the winter we are planning to do some events and fundraisers so as we can purchase the supplies we need in the coming spring.

On Sunday, November 4, members will be cutting wood left over from the forestry program across the street from the club. If anyone has a splitter we can use for the day please let me know, you can email me at heatherfields57@Yahoo.com or call me at 508-471-5157

Thank You!

This beats smoke signals eh?
