Memories bring Scout project to full bloom<br />
EAST BROOKFIELD — Tyler Davis and about 20 other people<br />
spent their day Saturday, Sept. 25 sprucing up the area<br />
around the Memorial Town Complex.<br />
The building holds special significance to the 15-year-old<br />
not only because it is his hometown’s Town Hall, but also<br />
because he attended classes there when it was known as the<br />
Memorial School.<br />
Tyler’s Eagle Scout project consisted of installing three<br />
birdhouses in trees around the Memorial Town Complex and<br />
a picnic table, putting a fresh coat of mulch and some fall<br />
flowers such as cale and mums in two flowerbeds — and putting<br />
three benches in one of the flowerbeds, and putting<br />
plants at the front and side entrances (near the library and<br />
police station).<br />
Tyler held a car wash in June at the East Brookfield fire<br />
station to help raise money to bring his Eagle Scout project<br />
idea to fruition.<br />

Family Fun comes to St. Joseph’s in Leicester<br />

Church hall. It featured food, raffles, craft tables, baked goods, plenty of children’s games (including a “bounce house”) and<br />
