Ballard was presented a
retirement award for her
I would like to say Thank You to Jan Scanlon for
volunteering to maintain tire plants in all the planters in
town. Jan has been doing an excellent job of keeping
our planter boxes watered and well maintained. With
the weather getting hotter this is no easy chore to do.
Jan’s dedication to this project is remarkable and I
hope everyone takes notice of how nice the plants look
this year. Thank you Jan for taking on this project for
us. Your time and work are so appreciated.
