WISHES FULFILLED! ~ ~ ~

* Three angels stepped forward in response to our request for help funding free books for children visiting physicians. Mary Hill, of Olde New England Books in Newfane, Betsy DeFinis, a Reading Recovery teacher in Norwalk, CT (who has a second home in Townshend), and Josephine Coleman, a librarian at the public library in Springfield, VT, all showed their devotion to their literacy-related vocations by donating toward this cause.

* Wendy Bruso of Jamaica, VT hosted Debbie Myers, an Albany Medical College student, during her rotation at Dr. Tim Shafer's office. Walter and Elaine Meyer of Townshend have also been hosts for Dr. Shafer's students. Additional hosts are always appreciated.

* Doris Hayden of Newfane has agreed to take over for Audrey Pogonowski as volunteer coordinator for the Couriers. Audrey and her husband have moved back to Connecticut, and we wish them the best, and thanks for a job well done. Doris would appreciate hearing from anyone who is interested in being a Courier, which entails driving to Brattleboro and back --once a week, once a month, or any schedule that works.
