Society program

The program had been scheduled earlier in the year but a storm forced cancellation of the meeting. President Len Greaney hopes to introduce the recipient of the college Jane Holt deFrees Scholarship.

The meeting is open to anyone interested. Plans will be made for the yard sale to be held Saturday, June 7, at the Lufkin School Museum, Rumford Center. At that time, the museum will also be open to the public.
