Dunn School Multi-Age Class Fundraiser

The grades 3, 4 and 5 multi-age class of Ms. Vermillion and Mrs. Petersen at the Dunn School will be selling student-made art projects to raise money for the Make A Wish Foundation. The students have been working with local artists in residence to create their artwork. The main purpose of this class project has been for the students to learn about the importance of giving back to their community.

The students' artwork will be on sale at the Fiddlehead Center for The Arts International Art and Cultural Festival on the Pineland Campus from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, May 14. Delicious homemade baked goods will also be available.

Please stop by the non-profit tent to see the results of the students' hard work and to help them support their chosen charity. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Make A Wish Foundation.

Don Hutchings and his Beans

At Monday's Council Workshop Meeting, Planning Board member spoke to the Council about how to listen to the citizenry. He said that his full jar of beans, which, when rattled, made no noise, represented the majority of the electorate in Gray. He shook a second container of beans containing just a few. When rattled, that container made a lot of noise. Mr. Hutchings said that that container represented the few people who come to meetings and speak and state their opinion all the time. The Council should listen to the silent majority he said.

He then offered his opinion on the zoning change for Depot Road, where he lives.
