BAKE SALE & FLEA MARKET FOR ST. FRANCIS HOUSE

The North End Friends of St. Francis House will hold our 6th annual Bake Sale and Flea Market on Friday March 19th and Saturday March 20th at the Nazzaro Community Center at 30 North Bennet St.  The event will go from 8am to 6pm on Friday and 10am to 2pm on Sat.  We will have all kinds of homemade baked goods and wonderful pastries and cookies from all of the bakeries and pastry shops in the neighborhood.   We will also have Mary Romano’s world famous eggplant sandwiches, meatball and sausage sandwiches.

We will also have tons of great flea market items for you to buy.  We will also be collecting spare change.  No amount is too small (or too big).  If you would like to send in a donation, make checks payable to St. Francis House and mail to John Romano 247 Burlington Avenue, Wilmington, Mass. 01887.  All of the proceeds we raise those two days and collect ahead of time will be matched by an anonymous donor, so your donation counts twice as much as you give.  For more information call John Romano at (617) 880-9901 or e-mail at patjr@comcast.net.

North End Dog Group Survey

DateWednesday, March 3, 2010

The North End Dog Group has become a very active constituency within our neighborhood, especially as they work toward the creation of a dog park.  They are doing a survey and asking neighborhood dog owners to participate. Anya Potter leads up the dog group and shares the following message.

Dear Dog Members,

As responsible dog owners, we are always trying to ensure that our dogs get proper socialization and exercise. A number of people have expressed interest in a dog park. That said, the first step in doing so is to get an idea of what the community wants and needs. Below is a link to a survey. It is brief and it would be greatly appreciated if you can take some time to fill it out. Also, please forward to friends who may not be in the dog group. You do not need to be a supporter of a dog park to complete it. The link is:

Thank you in advance for your time and keep warm and dry these days!

Best,
Anya
