Lantern Walk a success!

Thank you to all those who participated in this years long awaited Town Forest Lantern Walk on October 16th. The Town Forest Committee is most grateful to Tom McMann, Cubmaster, Troop 153, Rick Reuss, Director, Holbrook Emergency Management Agency, and all the Cub Scout leaders, especially Karen Santorelli from Pack 56. Also, the following Friends of the Holbrook Town Forest: Debbie Baio, Dale and Matt Lewis, and Jen Crosby, for their generous donation of materials and snacks. We also wish to thank all the boys and girls from scouting and the South School Ecology Club, under the direction of Mrs. Cathy Cripps, and the many parents and families who participated in making over 200 lanterns, many from recycled materials.
We couldn’t have asked for better weather; the evening was dry, the moon was high, and a light breeze rustled the leaves. This was the perfect backdrop for the 60 plus visitors walking the lantern lit paths, and experiencing the Town Forest in a new way. We were then were led in campfire songs by Mr. McMann, and had a snack. Thank you again to all who helped to continue this spectacular community event!

We hope to see you in the forest,

Patricia Greely, Chair

We will be making really cool lanterns to hang in the forest. If you bring 2 bottles you can make one to carry and one to hang in the forest!
