Here is my statement of the week: Everyone in Eaton and many surrounding communities, loves the Little White Church. No matter what event you are planning, a wedding, a funeral, a baptism, an afternoon concert or an evening of musical delight, you will want to hold your event at the LWC. The peace, serenity and love that surround you in this hallowed hall will make you laugh, cry, have hope, feel joy, reminisce, and bring you pleasure and happiness. That is why we all love our beautiful beacon full of light.

Now, with that said, on Wednesday, April 5th starting at 5:00 p.m., there will be a fund-raising event for the Little White Church at the Snowvillage Inn. The church board is planning to build a parking lot and this, along with donations and other fundraisers, will make this important project a reality. Jen and Kevin will give back some of the proceeds of the evening dinner revenue to the LWC. Former Eaton residents, Kathy and Dean Williams, are our premier sponsors for this event. We are grateful to all of you for your contributions. There will be a 50/50 raffle and a very interesting silent auction. We will have affordable and premium items as well. For instance, a downtown Portland apartment for a weekend, a private Dana Cunningham solo concert, original art work and crafts, a fine wine collection, and even an original acrylic oil of the LWC by Karen Brisbois. Man, it does not get better than that. Please make your reservations soon (603 447-2818). We hope to see you and we always appreciate your support of the church. (Thank you, Patricia, for this pertinent information)

Here comes a report from Beth Griffin about April, spring, and Easter chocolate. Now who doesn’t like chocolate? As Beth is looking at a big picture of luscious, creamy chocolate candies, she says “Let chocolate feel this vibrant on your tongue when you taste it. I don’t know about you but when I taste something, I want it to transport me to a place of WOW! Life’s too short to experience the mediocre. Rebirth. Renewal. That’s what this season is all about. Order now in time for Easter. Do what makes you smile and Happy Spring.” Beth’s mailing address is Your Soul Full Kitchen, Beth Nagle Griffin, P.O. Box 221, Eaton Center, NH 03832.

Again this year the Eaton Conservation Commission has funds available to pay part of the cost for Eaton children between the ages of 6 and 14 to attend Tin Mountain Conservation Center summer camps. If interested please contact Judy Fowler at 447-5635 before May 10th.

Please attend the next Eaton school board meeting on April 3 at 6:00 p.m. at the Eaton Town Hall. State Representative Glenn Cordelli will be the featured speaker discussing educational options and funding now available from the state level. Honorable Cordelli heads up the education committee in Concord and has been a proponent for school choice options that best fit student and parents’ needs.

Some people have been asking about who will take over at the Eaton Village Store for Rose and Bill after they leave next month, and I do have an answer for you. Maggie Flynn and her boyfriend Jimmy Yamartino will be doing the honors. I asked Jimmy if he cooked and he said, “NO, Maggie will be taking that over and I’ll be doing everything else.” I had a fun laugh at that. We have all known Maggie since she was born and when she lived at the Snowvillage Inn. We’ve followed her fabulous skiing career in high school and in Mountain Meisters week by week and have loved her enthusiasm, her winning smile, and her beaming personality. Jimmy is super nice and full of fun, too, and I think they’ll do a great job. They will be starting in May. When I know more, I’ll let you know, and I will do a more extensive interview then. Welcome, Maggie and Jimmy.
