The Bear Den from Cub Scout Pack 85 in Chichester, NH is proud of
their recent community service project. Saturday, June 11th, Colby
Mitchell, Iain McCormack, and Carter Pillsbury along with their Den

on learning the importance of protecting our environment for present
and future generations. Pack 85 will be honoring the boys for
their great accomplishment at our monthly pack meeting on June 23rd.
Out Of
Your Attic Thrift Shop News Submitted By Carol Hendee
We need
your help. Our volunteer refrigerator stopped volunteering!
We used it to keep water, yogurt, and lunches cold for the ladies.
If anyone can donate a dorm sized refrigerator, we certainly would
appreciate it. We just do not have money in the budget to
replace it.
Here is a feel good event; a lady and her small
child had been out all morning on a Saturday going to yard sales,
looking for a bike. We picked up, from a free pile, a Disney
Princess bike and marked it $5. They found the bike at our
store and the price was right. It was all the lady had to
spend! There was much joy in that purchase!
Good News!
Starting Monday June 20th, Ruthie will be at the desk 8-12, along
with Wendy and Kerrie. This means we will be open 6 days a
week! Mon. 8-12, Tues. and Thurs. 8-4, Wed. 11-4, Fri. and
Sat. 10-4. Make a note and save these hours. These hours
give you time to drop off donations and shop at our bargain prices.
Stop in at 345 Suncook Valley Hwy, Chichester, or call 247-7191.

Raymond
Jenks delivered the Commencement Address beginning with a moment of
silence for four adults of importance to the school and moving on to
high points of his class’s journey through Chichester Central. A
class computer video of the Roaring 20s had the flickering feel of
moving pictures from that era. The traditional video presentation of
pictures of each graduating student was shown to great applause from
the class members and the audience at large.
Mrs. Stiles and
others presented awards. The Kempton Ricker Award went to Fiona
Mara. The Commander of Post 110 in Epsom presented American Legion

Chapman received the Irene Ricker Awards. PTO President Carol

Mrs. Stiles announced the eight students whose scores in the
Scholastic Challenge were above the National Average: Lyla Boyajian,
Sarah Hubbard, Raymond Jenks, Emma Donzello-Jewett, Fiona Mara,
Brendan Murray, Grace Sargent, and Kasey Williams. Lyla Boyajian
received a medal for having the highest score in the school and a
