I am looking to rent or house-sit next year (Sept-May/June). I will be in graduate school at Antioch and I only really need a studio or a single room. If you are looking to rent something to a responsible, friendly person, let me know. I don't smoke and don't have pets.

Please contact me at aseidenberg@comcast.net if you have something available.

Thanks!

Anthony Pollina will be in Putney at the United Church on Tuesday, May 20 at 6PM. He will lead a discussion of the issues that are important to the people of Vermont.
This will not be a campaign rally. Anthony will be here to listen to your ideas of how to make this a better state, no matter your political persuasion.
There will be a home-made dinner in the church hall before the meeting.

Many, Many thanks to all of the volunteers that helped with the last community supper hosted by iPutney.

Brattleboro Music Center: Camp Allegro

Location: Putney Central School

Jazz & Small Ensembles, Chorus
Orchestra, Music Listening, Recreation

Camp Allegro is a 10 day camp for 9 to 12 years olds, studying a musical instrument. This is a unique opportunity for the young musicians to perform and be coached in both small & large instrumental ensembles.

Camp Allegro is an all around wonderful experience, a chance for young instrumentalists to enjoy full, rich days, to grow as musicians and to make new friendships.

Do you have some old wood stove ashes from the winter that you'd like to donate to the Putney Central School/community garden? We're looking for clean ashes to use for raising the pH and adding calcium to our soil. Ashes from cordwood and newspaper only, please, as scrap wood, trash, and treated paper products can contain toxins. Contact Abe at 387-5357. Thanks very much!
