Good luck, have fun, and pray for sunshine!

Blessed Baby Boutique, Western Maine Mothers' Center, WIC of WMCA, and the Franklin County Children's Task Force will be providing a family tent at the Blueberry Festival. Available in front of the library, there will be a changing table, comfy chairs for nursing and feeding infants, and crayons and paper for toddlers.

This will be a free, quiet place for families to get out of the sun and action for a few minutes, change a diaper, and rest. FMI or to help us out, call Heidi at 778-6700.
