To the Editor:

I would like to thank all the committee members and volunteers who participated in the Otisfield Winter Carnival. It was a great success.

We are fortunate to live in a town where multiple organizations come together for this community event. I would like to thank the Otisfield Volunteer Firefighters’ Association (OVFA) and volunteers for setting up and creating the games for the morning activities. There were some creative new games this year. A big thank you to the Social Outreach Committee, Spurr’s Corner Church, the Dyer family, and the multiple volunteers that cooked and baked all the amazing food for our lunch.

Having Andrew of the Silver Circus entertain the children and adults during lunch was very successful. There was much laughter and audience participation throughout his entire performance. Great job Andrew.

The East Otisfield Baptist Church Provided Make and Take Crafts along with Cookie decorating at the town office. Thank you to all who volunteered and baked for this activity. The children enjoyed sledding our little hill that was created this year. The cardboard sleds that were created were amazing. What an imagination the children who created them have.

A big thank you to the OVFA and volunteers for all the work in cooking and serving the Italian theme dinner and the big clean up of the community hall. All donations raised have gone to the recreation area and the fuel assistance program of our great town. The Winter Carnival cost was paid for by money raised from the OVFA plant sales.

Finally, a huge thank you to all who participated in the variety of activities throughout the day. Your involvement and enthusiasm made the Otisfield Winter Carnival a huge success…
