Our Picnic and Kayaking Event at Lincoln Woods State Park was a lot of fun! It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and a good time was had by all — even our “Mascot” Au Pair Bear. Since he accompanies us to many of our meetings and events, we’ve decided that it would be appropriate to give him a name, and have initiated a contest to name the bear. The name and the contest winner will be announced at our September cluster meeting in Smithfield. At that meeting we plan to have our annual birthday party/gift exchange and do some apple picking. Autumn will be in the air by then, the leaves will have begun to show their Fall colors. It is sure to be a memorable and fun day!
