Thanks to our Warm Clothing Drive Volunteers!
Scenes from our Warm Clothing Drive held November 7, 2015 at the Enfield Community Center.
Lots of donated clothes, lots of volunteers and lots of happy shoppers. Thank you all who helped!
Surplus Vegetables
As gardens are winding down, Christine Jespersen’s (Family and Consumer Science Teacher at MVRHS) cooking classes are looking for surplus vegetables and fruits to preserve. Extra large zucchinis, rhubarb, and frozen berries are a few of the sought after items, however every year they try to include more vegetables into the labs. Any extras (cucumbers, beans, beets, etc.) are gratefully accepted!
Also, if you have any canning jars that you no longer want, Christine’s classes will gladly take them off of your hands. Jam and jelly size are great, but any size would be welcome. The jars will be used to make jam and jelly by the clothing and textiles students to sell as a fundraiser for their NYC trip. The fundraiser was a huge success last year and a wonderful experience for the students.

Sponsored Artist Collaboration
Mascoma Students, pictured here with local fiber artist Rebecca Powell and teacher David Shinnlinger, have constructed a loom to be used to weave a 6’ x 8’ tapestry to grace the walls of the new Media Center. The design for the tapestry was created Chris Morse’s art students under the guidance of Mrs. Powell. Over the next year, students across the District and community members will be welcomed to work on the tapestry together with the artist. Collaboration is truly the fabric of our community.
