Tuesday

It's Garbage Day!

51.6 degrees and clear.

From WKTV: Wall to wall sunshine will continue Tuesday as a large area of high pressure parks itself over the area. This high pressure center will also bring with it some warmer temperatures. It will still feel a lot like August tomorrow with highs in the mid to upper 80s. The good news is, there won't be much humidity to deal with. Wednesday looks like a carbon copy of Tuesday's weather with sunny skies and temperatures in the mid to upper 80s.
Our next weather maker will be a weak cold front expected to pass through sometime Thursday.

Mark Masca's blog post, yesterday, is titled:
"November Can't Come Soon Enough!"

I received the following information from Joan Stedman, with a request to share it with you:

AYSO (American Youth Soccer Organization)

In the Waterville area the AYSO program is transitioning to a new Administration team consisting of:
Joan Stedman – Regional Commissioner (404-1732)
Roberta Williams – Assistant/Referee Administrator (841-8257)
Colleen Emerson – Coach Administrator (841-4723)
Kelly Machold – Registar (841-8378)
Stacy Stockbridge – Treasurer

The AYSO program is based on “5” Principles:
Everyone Plays – Balanced Teams – Positive Coaching – Open Registration – Good Sportsmanship

AYSO is a Volunteer Organization – we are still in need of coaches, referees, and team volunteers. Training and certification is provided free of charge. Please sign up to help!!

If anyone is still interested in registering a child please contact Kelly, (there’s still time).

I wanted to send out a special “thanks” to Lori Engle for all her years of Service!!

Pete Kane's Hops

At Sarah Schachtler's, last year .....

and the Falks', on Putnam Street.

WHY GROW HOPS?

(humulus lupulus)

And it's all about Waterville

where hops were introduced in 1820;
where many implements essential to hop production were invented;
where the Hop Exchange was established,
and where the world's first liquid Hop Extract was developed.

*******

More to come.

My thanks to Rich Lewis, who has sent me a couple of interesting photographs that I'll publish in a day or two!

It's been a little hectic, here, and I'm somewhat overwhelmed with things to do re: Bandstand business - but what a wonderful problem that is!!

Please bear with me 'til the Groundbreaking Ceremony on the twentieth: after that, my life will get back to normal, again!

Perhaps!

Have a great day, everyone!

SCHOOL STARTS ON THURSDAY!
