A big thank you to those who paid their 2008 dues. And a bigger thank you to those who brought their overdue dues payment up to date. Thanks for taking care of this obligation.

A reminder that our Strawberry Festival is coming up on Saturday, June 21. As it stands now, we will be having it at the "new" church, the Southern Baptist, on the corner of Summer and Main Streets. Yes, the former Unitarian Church. The new congregation has welcomed us.

The usual Strawberry Shortcakes with real whipped cream will be served until 3:00 PM unless we run out. Also available will be hot dogs, coffee, and soda. There will be a plant table, Society items for sale, bric-a-brac, floral arrangements and other tables.

Desserts are always appreciated at our meetings. We had some wonderful ones at our last meeting. Thanks to those who donated. We will have the coffee pot on as usual.
