Collecting Books: Spread the word! There are book collecting stations at Arlex, Ace
Hardware, and Sunoco. We will be collecting books till April 5th!
300 Float: We have decided that we are going to build a lattice in the Farming
section. Also if anyone has a smoke machine they would like to bring to the next
meeting which is on March 24 at Mrs. Kelly's House, 24 Forest Street in
Lexington. Mrs. Kelley also found a 8ft tall Flagpole with a metal base to put in the
Freedom section of our Float. So far for volenteers for standing in the float we have
Jake Douvas signed up for farming, James Laurenzi for Freedom, and Annie Douvas
and Sara Lehman (maybe) signed up for family. A local dentist, Dr. Coppe, has
generously offered to supply all costumes needed for the float. Shaun and James
McLaughlin have also volunteered to bring 3 bales of Hay for the float. We also will
be getting fake grass for the family section.
Extra Community Service Opportunities: Sean has asked if anyone would like to
help out at the Estabrook School if you would like to get some extra hours. Email
him at melonPgis.net for further instructions. Ms. Kelley also needs help taking off
lights on from the tree in the center for more information you can email her at
beverl, a�,Lgmail.com for more information.
Next meeting: Our next meeting will be held on April 11th, 2013 at 7:OOPM at the
Cary Memorial Building in the Estabrook Room.
