The
Else Cilley Chapter, NSDAR, held its July meeting at the Nottingham
Square Schoolhouse. Following a picnic lunch with a delicious
strawberry dessert and berry punch provided by hosts Lynne Sweet,
Deanna Rush and Norma Perkins, State and Chapter Chairman Lynne
Sweet presented a program on the National Society’s Project Patriot
Program. Mrs. Sweet explained how care packages, including helmet
liners, cool ties, powders, wipes, candy, cards, etc. are sent to
troops serving in Iraq, donated by Chapter members. Her
power point presentation showed the phone cards and supplies donated
to chaplains at Landstuhl Military Hospital in Germany. Troops
transported to this hospital arrive injured with only the clothes on
their backs. The project Patriot Committee sees that these brave
soldiers wake up to a phone card at their bedside table and that
clothing will be available when they are out of bed.
A business
meeting followed discussing plans for the reception for member
Treasurer General Sarah Voll to be held at the Nottingham Square
Schoolhouse on Sunday, August 15th from 2-4 p.m. and the chapter’s
participation in Nottingham Day in September. Women interested in
joining the DAR and being a part of the many projects involving
Education, Patriotism and Historic Preservation sponsored by the
Else Cilley Chapter, NSDAR, are encouraged to visit our web site

Summer
Fun
“No
Place Like Home”, on right, took home bragging rights for first
prize at the annual boat parade. The Hawaii theme boat, left, which
put everyone in the mood for a luau with tiki lights, captured
second place.
The
annual boat parade sponsored by the Northwood Lake Watershed
Association, for many years a favorite celebration of summer at
Northwood Lake, was held again on July 31, following a number of
years of its absence. It was an enthusiastic and creative crowd who
decorated boats of all varieties and toured the lake for everyone to
enjoy. Participants competed for prizes and enjoyed a wonderful
picnic at the town beach.
First prize went to Wizard of Oz/No
Place Like Home, a theme remembering the 2008 tornado which
unleashed destruction on the west end of Northwood Lake.
