We are looking for volunteers to help man the booth at the moose lottery friday and Saturday.
If you able to help please email Judy Gibbs with the hours you will be there. Right now we need a few blocks filled. This will be like the Acton Fair and in the same building we would have at the fair. There is no charge for getting in while helping. We are looking for 2 people for each time frame.
Email [email protected] if your are going to show up and help.
I know this is a last minute thing. We were hoping the newsletter would have gotten more volunteers to sign up. Thanks and have a great day

10th Annual Kid’s Ice Fishing Derby
A HUGE THANK YOU! To all the YCF& G members that volunteered to get ready for the Kid’s Ice Fishing Derby. It takes a village to set up, drill holes, plow, sand, get firewood and cleanup.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU, as always, to the Board Members that show up & get it done; Walter Sullivan, Adam Truesdale, and Alan Gibney for your valiant efforts to tackle moving the snow & slush off the ice! (Brought his 4 X 4 Farm tractor from home)

A HEARTFELT THANKS FOR THE CONTINUED SUPPORT:

Thank you to all the families that came out to participate. It is always great seeing everyone, watching the kids running up to the table to measure their fish, first- time ice fishing experience for a couple of kids this year, making new friends, enjoying the outdoors makes the few days of prep and the 4 am alarm going off on a Saturday morning worth it!

Thank you; Nina, Debbie, Mark, Melody, Iris, Lydia, Buck, Madi, Hanniah, Isaiah, Logan, Wade, Finnegan, Griffin, Ireland you make it all worth it.

Enjoy the pictures! (Please add your own, I think Melody & Finnegan “snuck by” our camera)
