Even as someone who doesn’t especially like to cook, I accepted the challenge from Justine Rogers and had a great lunch, met some new people, caught up with some old friends, learned some culinary tricks and just had a good time. There’s room for more next month! – Lil

Pick up a copy of the next cook book at the library, sign up for a recipe you love and join us for lunch on July 26th at 11:30am.
When people start talking about “these kids today”, keep this young man in mind. He started as a Cub Scout like this:
Teen led project maintaining snowmobile/hiking trail for Eagle Project
Paul C. Beliveau, Jr. 18, son of Paul and Evelyn Beliveau, was awarded the rank of Eagle Scout on May 4, 2016. Paul is a member of Troop 299 in Walpole, chartered with the Daniel Webster Council and the Boy Scouts of America through the Walpole Fire Department. Before crossing over to the troop as a fifth grader, Paul was a member of Cub Scout Pack 299.
In early December Paul led a group of friends and family to maintain a snowmobile/hiking trail in Walpole for the Hooper Hill Hoppers. They removed dead trees that posed hazards to riders and hikers, repaired a bridge, cut back brush and trailside growth and affixed safety signage.
Paul is a 2016 graduate of Fall Mountain Regional High School. He will be attending the Honors College at the University of Massachusetts Lowell in the fall to study Mechanical Engineering and Robotics.
The Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Paul Beliveau will be held Sunday, July 10, 2016 at the Walpole Town Hall, 34 Elm Street at 3 PM. The Public is invited to attend.
And if you attend, this is the young man you will see today:
Congratulations, Paul. – Lil

Have you noticed the new flags that are now unfurled on the Common? Thanky uo to all involved in assuring that this was done.
Janet Wilson wanted to give you the times for Picnics on the Porch as well as to remind you that this is a weekly event. – Lil
PICNIC ON THE PORCH
Hooper Golf Course June 21, 2016
The porch at the Hooper Mansion will be open for picnickers beginning on Tuesday, June 21, at 5:30- 8 pm. Please bring your own picnic, beverage, utensils, etc. It will be open every Tuesday for the season.
This is a great way to enjoy the “good old days” of socializing with friends, enjoying the view, reminiscing… and please plan to carry out your own trash! It’s up to us to keep the porch as beautiful as we remember it.
The porch holds about 50 people: first come, first served.
