Good Morning Lead (and friends of Lead)!
Is there anything as summery as the sound of lawn mowers in the late afternoon? I can’t believe we finally made it!
Have you seen the beautiful trees in our parking lot at the Visitor Center? And the lilacs that are just about to pop? For some reason it kind of surprises me that summer is here without any effort or planning on our part – it’s just something that happens. And thank goodness it couldn’t get canceled! The trees are so fragrant and make me so unbearably happy. They only last a week so be sure you get a good look at them next time you drive through town!
____ Here’s what’s going on around town
Friday, 5/29 – 10am We’ll continue with our Feeding Lead program. No need to pre-qualify, if you could use some food just come and grab it. Thank you so much to our sponsors and volunteers. We’ll continue this week and next and then we will disperse the funds to other local associations in Lead.
Tuesday, 6/2 – 9am Lead Beautification is inviting everyone to come help plant flowers around town! They REALLY need help, and are hoping to have a good turnout for the hundreds of flowers they plant around town. Please meet at the Visitor Center parking lot at 9am with your own garden gloves, trowel and any other tools you might need and they will make a plan and disperse.
