Weathersfield News April 6, 2016
I'm not sure what we did to upset
Mother Nature but just when we thought is was Spring she threw us a curve ball
and brought back Winter. My skier friends are all moaning about it being too
little to late. Me, I'm just worried about my berry bushes and fruit trees that
were starting to form their buds, are they going to get frozen?
Before the snow
came, I hope you all had a chance to enjoy some yummy hot dogs at the Weathersfield
Proctor Library on Saturday. Our new Library Director is a HUGE Red Sox fan and
decided to serve up some hot dogs and talk about this much anticipated Red Sox baseball
season.

If you didn't get enough yummy food at the Library, the Ascutney
Volunteer Fire Fighters served up a Pig Roast on Saturday night. (Heard it was
delicious.)
And in case you missed it, our local Celebs-Ernie and Cookie Shand
were featured on last Thursday's WCAX-TV Super Senior segment. http://www.wcax.com/story/31612656/super-senior-ernie-and-cookie-shand
Weathersfield,
you are officially on the cool map! And speaking of cool, rumor has it that
there will be nine teams competing this year at the Annual Town Challenge on
Apr. 16. I'm looking at them all and trying to decide who to put my money on
(it's a fundraiser for the Library!)
