Monday




It's Garbage Day!

25.7 degrees and Sunny!

WKTV predicts that we can: "Expect abundant sunshine today, with temperatures topping off in the low 50s. A slow moving storm system will pass south of the region, giving us a few extra clouds tonight and tomorrow. Overnight lows still expected to fall into the mid 20s."



"Filtered sunshine for tomorrow and a bit warmer. Highs in the upper 50s. The weather improves even more for Wednesday with sunny skies and highs near 60. Quiet, dry, sunny, warm weather is expected to continue into the weekend."

Puddles of Blue Scilla are appearing - this one is across the road from the pond at the foot of Grant Hill.




Members of the DPW replaced a lamp post in front of Foodking on Thursday morning. The original had been damaged first by one delivery truck and finally finished off, last Fall, by yet another!

A SPECIAL STORY




April is Organ Donor Month, and "Mickey" is on the Road again!

Just about everyone knows that Mickey Mantle was once a great baseball player, but they probably don't remember that, shortly before his death in 1995, he received a liver transplant and that he established the Mickey Mantle Foundation to raise awareness of Organ and Tissue Donation.

Likewise - just about everyone in Waterville knows that Don Brown - the one who, along with his son, Don, is a disk-jockey; who drives Swanberg residents to appointments and serves on the Community Memorial Hospital Emergency Response Team - sometimes drives a pinstriped T-bird with the Yankee logo on the hood and Mickey Mantle's fabled #7 on the back, but they probably don't know why .......................

IN THE MAIL

from Karen Fox:

The Memorial Park School PTA is following up on the recent successful Parents As Reading Partners program with a Scholastic Book Fair and an Academic Fair.
The Book Fair will be running at MPS from April 21st through the 24th. The times will be Tuesday, 10:00-1:00; Wednesday, 10:30-2:30 & 6:00-8:00; Thursday, 11:30-3:00 & 6:00-8:00; and Friday, 10:00-2:00. A wide variety of books that will appeal to all ages will be available for purchase.
The Academic Fair will be held Thursday, April 23, from 11:30-8:00. MPS students will be entering projects based on books they have read either on their own or as a class. The projects can reflect any area of the curriculum. The Academic Fair will provide the community with a cross-section of the academic program at MPS, and will provide the students with the opportunity to proudly display their work.
The MPS-PTA encourages the school and local communities to visit and take part in both of these events. Memorial Park School is located at 145 East Bacon Street, Waterville, NY.



FOR THE RECORD





ENJOY THE SUNSHINE!

Have a Great Day!
