Dec. 17th Holiday Spouse Night

Come and enjoy the fellowship of the season at T.J. Smith's, and bring your spouse or significant other! We are hoping to have musical entertainment from one of the EBHS choral groups, and we'll have a good old fashioned Yankee Swap for those who wish to participate! Meeting starts at 6:30 p.m.

For those who wish to participate in the Yankee Swap, please bring a wrapped gift with a value close to $10. Wonder if any of the "cherished" gifts from past Yankee Swaps will re-appear???

Naughty or Nice??

Rumor has it that Santa appeared in the parade this past Saturday after a visit to the South Pole ... perhaps that accounts for his strange accent? Scouts snapped this photo of Santa and an E.B. Kiwanis member ... wonder if she was naughty or nice????

Christmas on the Common - A Great Success!

Despite the soggy weather, the townspeople turned out in droves again this year to partake of the festivities. The parade route was crowded with excited small children (and big children, too) anxiously awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus, rumor has it Santa was fresh off an excursion to the South Pole this year!

PP Charlie Muise - Man of the Year!!

Our own PP Charlie Muise was honored last night as Rotary's Man of the Year. No one was more deserving of the honor than PP Charlie, though he would be the first to say he didn't do anything to deserve the award! There was a strong Kiwanis presence at BSC for the award ceremony, with 18 members & guests coming out to show support for PP Charlie.

PP Bob Dennis gave PP Charlie's testimonial
