Community Plant Sale
Thank you to Tori Amos & Shelby Amos (and their sweet kids) for all the work they put into this LPIF Fundraiser. We were gifted a check in the amount of $450 from the Amos Family to put in our General Fund for future events/projects in the community. Shelby’s dream is have a community garden in Linden. We support him and his family 100%. Again, thank you for making this Plant Sale happen and believing in the mission of LPIF.
Upcoming Tie-Dye Event in Downtown Linden
Waiting on more rubber bands to come in. Who is up for rubber banding t-shirts for our July Tie-Dye event in downtown Linden? I know it seems early, but trust me… July 17 will be here in the blink of an eye.
If 10 people could band 15 assorted size shirts, we would be good to go. Reach out below and tell me if you can help. I will get back to you by PM on the details of what is needed. I would like to see this done by June 20.
Also going to need help with the event. Both with the tie-dye shirts and the rock painting. I will have sign up sheet put up the first week on June.
Teacher Appreciation Week
Linden Pay it Forward gifted our Linden Teacher’s lip balms this year for Teacher Appreciation Week. We also held a gift card drawing. Ten $25 gift cards were gifted. Thank you every TRIBE member who donated to make this event happen.
Pete’s Memorial Bench
It was an emotional tribute. Thank you to everyone who was able to attend the dedication of Pete’s bench. The planters donated by Allen Woodworking were beautiful. Police Chief Sutter did a great job presenting the bench on behalf of the Linden community.Thank you Becky Nemecheck for preparing the tribute and Denise Courser-Miller for delivering the bench. As always, a shout out to Hanna Ball for making this newsworthy.
The kids really appreciated all of the poles and $ that were donated to Linden Pack 111 Cub Scouts. They had a blast. Thank you.
From DEN LEADER Jeff McClintic
Project Teacups for Seniors was a success. Thank you Denise Courser-Miller, Kathy Girgen, Marlene Craig, Jan Vaughn Sutherland for your efforts in making the project a success. I’m sure we will make a lot of ladies feel special!FYI…we had extra flowers so we sent them over to Shirley’s Cafe.
