Inside Easter Egg hunt because of weather
April brought so many smiles in my life early Saturday morning and later Saturday afternoon. My family and I had the opportunity to be able to help with two local, free egg hunts. One was in Cobleskill and the other in Seward. All in all there were over 3,000 eggs total hidden and collected on Saturday. I love to give back to the community. I am teaching my boys to give back so your community continues on. Thank you to those who put on the events and those who came to the events!
This Saturday, April 11, is the last pancake breakfast for the season. The Zion Lutheran Church of Seward is hosting from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. The church is located at 114 Mesick Avenue Cobleskill. Bring your hungry belly and they will have food ready to fill it up. Thank you to those who help put this on. Thank you to the patrons that show up.

Today, BottleRocket Creations offers a variety of beginner-friendly workshops, including stained glass, blown glass orbs and ornaments, as well as resin and glass décor. Each experience is designed to bring out the artistic side in everyone—no prior experience needed.
Workshops can be hosted as stand-alone events that attract new patrons to local businesses or incorporated into private celebrations such as birthdays, holidays, and special gatherings.

The next Seward Town board meeting is April 13, at 6:30 p.m. located at the town hall. The next CRCS school board meeting is April 13 at 6:30 p.m., located at the Middle School library. This is a big one about the budget. Over the past year, I have tried to become a more concerned citizen. If you wish to attend either meeting, you are welcome to do so.
