Delightful weekend, weather-wise, but I have noticed the Vermont Alert for excessive heat this coming week. Apparently, there will be a pause in our lovely, cool nights that enhance sleeping.

Shade and hydration are important in order to stay safe. This seems like an ideal time to jump in the lake, which can be done at Camp Plymouth State Park on Wednesday, 6:19 when you attend the annual strawberry festival. Admission is free at 5 PM, but it may be worth paying the price of admission to be there all day!

Just some quick reminders that although the Town office will be closed on Monday, 6/17, the select board meeting will still be held at 6 PM.

Or if you would prefer a different type of gathering, the Plymouth reading group will be meeting at my house at 6:30 on Monday 6/17 to discuss Russian winter by Daphne.

Mark your calendar for the upcoming events at the Calvin Coolidge historic site. On 7/2 the Coolidge cup speech and debate tournament will be happening. On 7/3 there will be the annual Coolidge foundation meeting and summer dinner. As usual, there will be the Fourth of July celebration at the notch with the parade to the the Calvin Coolidge gravesite including the placement of the presidential wreath in honor of his birthday.
