“Still More Cats”, Sharon’s newest band with Michael Barsanti, Anne Mapplebeck
and Peter Neri, will play for the Sharon Food Shelf Fundraiser on Saturday, June
4th. Held at The Seven Stars Center, doors open at 7 pm with festivities going
to about 10 o’clock. There will be baked goods for sale. This is a non-alcohol
event. A small admission fee of $5 -$10 is requested and if folks want to bring
a donation item for the Food Shelf, these are the items needed most: mustard,
ketchup, pickles, relish, paper towels, toilet paper, dish detergent, foil and
plastic wrap. Come kick up your heels and have some fun! There will be an open
house at the Food Shelf (in the Lighthouse across from the Sharon Congregational
Church) from 6-7 on Saturday, June 4th. For more info call Peter at 763-7067.

Peggy Willis has suggested publishing a Sharon cookbook. What a wonderful idea with the 250th Anniversary of the Town approaching! Patty Swahn has agreed to head up the initial organization efforts. Anyone with recipes can contact her via email (pbys64vtnc@gmail. com) or they can leave anything at her home on the front porch.  If you would like to include a short history or anecdote with the recipe, it would make it much more interesting.

Please consider a generous donation to assist in the recovery efforts in Japan. Gifts may be made at your local UCC congregation (Sharon Congregational Church UCC) marked for “Pacific earthquake/tsunami” with the request they be sent through the Vermont Conference office in Randolph. They will send 100% of your contributions on to Wider Church Ministries of the national UCC. Donations may also be made out and sent directly to Wider Church Ministries, 700 Prospect Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44115.  It is also possible to give directly through the Vermont Conference UCC website or through the national United Church of Christ offices website . Thank you.
