School vacation went by in a flash. Thanks to some awesome friends, Eliot was able to go to a trampoline park, swimming and an inside overnight in a tent. These friends have some brave parents to take on this rambunctious group of boys.
Last year for Eliot’s birthday at our house we had a group of boys and I vowed not to do that again. They are great kids but lots of energy and a bit rough. Birthdays during the cold weather are tough. I was blessed to have a summer birthday and outdoor cookouts were a great option. Now I must come up with a more suitable birthday option for this year. There is bowling or possibly just a couple of friends taking in a movie.
I’m thankful to have Fridays off so I will be able to chaperone the fourth grade field trip to the Maine State House and Blaine House. I think fourth grade has been my favorite so far with some amazing field trips that I have been able to attend.
Baking was limited this past weekend and I only managed to make a banana bread and some no bake cookies.
Just a reminder that the Select Board meets on the first and third Tuesdays, currently the time is 3pm.
Nomination papers will be available starting Monday, March 2nd for a 3-year term on the Select Board. Nomination papers are available now for a 2-year term on the School Board and the Planning Board is still looking for someone to fill an alternate position. Please contact the Town Office if you have any questions.
Send me your news to newrynews24@gmail.com and I’m happy to add it to my column.
I’m adding a beautiful picture of the blue sky, white snow and lovely barbed wire fence as a reminder that spring is right around the corner. These views never get old and I’m always stopping to capture another photo. I’m also thankful that we didn’t receive 32” of snow as some of my friends did in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
