Little Miss Mapleton pageant informational meeting set for tonight

16 years ago

    There will be an informational meeting for any parents interested in having their daughter(s) participate in this year’s Little Miss Mapleton pageant. If your daughter lives in Mapleton, Chapman or Castle Hill and is between the ages of 6-9 years old, please plan to attend this important meeting Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 6:30 p.m., downstairs at the Lion’s Hall. 

This year the pageant is scheduled for April 25. Please keep in mind that you (and your daughter) are not committing to anything by simply attending this meeting! If you have any questions, please contact Jennifer Buzza at 760-9115.

Castle Hill Grange Hall Preservation Society
    The Castle Hill Grange Hall Preservation Society is selling candy bars. It has always been a great fund-raiser thanks to everyone’s sweet tooth out there.
    The society is looking for volunteers to please give them an hour of your time once a month to help keep the building operating. The fund-raisers they have are just paying their expenses and leave them with little else to do their projects. If you have enjoyed voting, going to town meetings, their suppers, having a reasonable hall to rent right in your own town, and other events, please consider helping to keep their organization going for future years. Dues for a working member are $10 per year, or $15 for non-working member, or $100 for a lifetime membership. Their meetings are the fourth Tuesday of the month from February through November.
    They are requesting that anyone who has knowledge of a veteran who served in the military between 1903 to the present to write or call Natalie Maynard, 2877 State Road, Castle Hill, Maine 04757 or 764-4878. They need names, dates, and any information you can give them so they can place the names on a sign or in a book in the future. The person must have been a resident of Castle Hill at the time of service.
    Their next meeting will be Feb. 24, 2009.
