Some of them were holding signs advertising the free car wash (with donations encouraged), to all parking areas* while others dispensed the soap and water. Also there was coach Kelly King, who explained money collected during the car wash would go into a fund to buy uniforms and pay entry fees for competitions. The co-ed squad, with 16 girls and three boys, is looking to become national champions for the Leicester second time in three years (the squad took home the championship in the spring of 2012). The road started, as it has for quite a few years, with a four-day trip to the Pine Forest Cheerleading Camp in Pennsylvania last month. Four members of this year’s team — Victoria Carcamo, Darian Kenneway, Adrian Novas and Joe Perron — were named All-Americans at the camp, King said. Harvest Fair 2013

LEICESTER — Boy Scout Troop 201 held its annual yard sale Saturday, Aug. 31 across from Cumberland Farms on Main Street (Route 9) in Leicester, near Walmart. Scoutmaster Ken Choquette said the yard sale is always held Labor Day weekend. It is one of the major fundraisers for the troop, based at Mary, Queen of the Rosary Parish in Spencer. On sale were items donated by Scouts’ families and local residents, Choquette said, along with items left over from the flea market at the church’s annual International Bazaar. Proceeds are used for programs, trips and equipment for the Scouts, he said. A lasting tribute to ‘Buddy’ FINIAL OF TOWN HOUSE BELL TOWER TO BE COVERED IN GOLF LEAF

BY NICK ETHIER SPORTS STAFF WRITER LEICESTER — After finishing the 2012 season just one point shy of reaching the Central Mass. District tournament for the first time in 10 years, the Leicester High field hockey team was admittedly disappointed. “They're still holding onto it. It was a big deal,” Wolverines head coach Kristina Looney said. So now Leicester's goal for 2013 is the same: to qualify for dis- tricts. “Their attitudes are great. They went into the season really confi- dent [and] they've been playing really well as a team,” Looney said after the Wolverines defeated Southbridge High, 4-0 on Sept. 9, to improve to 2-0-1. “Everyone seems to have a skill that fits in perfectly on the field.” Leicester has opened it season with a 1-1 draw with Oxford, a 2-1 decision over North Brookfield and the Southbridge victory.
