Jeff Stone had a buck for Joe Adrignola not winning the 50/50;
Larry Murphy for saving $1400 on a car he just bought at Irwin
Motors and for wife Rose being happy; Roger Webster for being
back, living in the USA, and finding $20 in Hawaii; and Roger
Ballantyne for Rose Murphy telling him that she is happy.

Nute, Mayhew Program
You have a terrific way of making our Tuesday! Thanks for the
great news, Don! Laconia Kiwanis has been so supportive of what's
happening here for the boys. We could not do it without you
-- and that's the absolute truth! Please pass along my thanks
to everyone. It may be too late for folks over there to hear
this but...We ARE having an Island volunteer day this Saturday,
May 7th. If anyone has any interest -- I know Larry Murphy has
been terrific about this -- please do have them give me a call.
Franklin Rotary will be out with six folks and I'm sure they'd
love the company and we could certainly use a few more hands.
As we move through the month here, I'll be sure to give Paul
Cotton more advanced notice should we find more jobs where we
could use more hands. Thank you, Don, for offering the help.
If anyone is likely to be interested in a fall project, I'm sure
we'll have a few then too as we close up the Island. Be great
(and thanks again). (w) 744-6131, jim@mayhew.org
