Pancake supper began at 6:00 pm.  Sausage, applesauce and pancakes were served with the best maple syrup ever.

*100 new books were ordered and received, with $90.00 worth of books already sold.  Books available at Wells Village Library, the Wells Country Store and Earth & Time Studio & Gallery for $15.00.

*Discussion of this year’s 6th Grade essay Contest was concluded with the topic being the Vermont Constitution.  Cash prizes remain the same as last year: 1st-$50, 2nd-$35, 3rd-$20.  Trish will contact 6th grade teacher Amanda Crowningshield with topic, contest rules and rubric to be used to judge the submitted essays.

*A request was made on the FB page for information about a schoolhouse in East Wells.  Since there are three school houses in East Wells, more information is required as to which building the request is about.

Our next meeting will be Wednesday, June 5th, with a potluck supper.  A nominating committee will be selected to prepare for our annual meeting with elections in August.

A possible program for June may be by the Liebig  Nursery.


Meeting adjourned at 7:20 p.m.
