Vergennes Words for Thirds
Members of the Vergennes Lions Club last month handed out dictionaries to the 30 third graders at Vergennes Union Elementary School and to the 17 combined second- and third-graders at the Addison Central School. This program has been going on for a number of years in Ferrisburgh with the donors there being the local Grange. When Brandon-Forestdale Lion Mary Shields switched from Ferrisburgh to Vergennes this year, she suggested the Vergennes Lions might want to give the other children in the Addison Northwest School District the same opportunity. Her previous club has been doing this for a number of years in the Brandon area, and teachers there say the dictionaries help the students in their learning. The Lions Club members who handed out the dictionaries, with the individual students names in them, said it was one of the most enjoyable things they have done. The Lions talked about what their organization does locally, statewide and around the world through it’s 1.4 million members. The students were very attentive, asked good questions, and many commented on what their own family does to help others.

Family fun at Bayside Park
Colchester Lions Club, in partnership with Colchester Parks & Recreation, sponsored the annual Easter egg hunt at Bayside Park. Children were separated by two age groups: 4 and under hunted Lower Bayside Park, ages 5 -8 hunted Upper Bayside Park. Over 3000 eggs were 'stuffed' 'hidden' and 'found' during this event. The 'Easter Bunny' arrived, giving photo opportunities for the children making memories that will last for a long time. The Colchester Lions Club also hosted its annual food drive for the Colchester Community Food Shelf, collecting just shy of 250 pounds of food, with an undetermined amount of cash donations.
The Colchester Lions Club would like to thank the Colchester High School Honor Society and the Colchester Boy Scout Troop 601 for their assistance over the weekend. The club would also like to thank the St. Michael's Fire and Rescue for having a 'special connection' to the Easter Bunny. Thanks to Colchester Parks and Recreation for their continued support of this great event. Please see Colchester Lions Club Facebook page for more photos.
