This year’s fair was dedicated to retiring state Sen. Stephen Brewer (D-Barre) for his many years of support for 4-H.

DOUGLAS — Douglas Boy Scout Troop 134 camped outside the Second Congregational Church in Douglas, Aug. 8-10. During the weekend-long event, the Troop, who has a strong outdoor program and is dedicated to youth leadership and development, displayed their outdoor skills and equipment for town residents. Canoes, tents and camping gear were among the items on display. Activities included bridge lash- ing, music, make your own pizza, and Dutch oven apple crisp. The Troop even held an Eagle Scout Court of Honor on behalf of Josh Galego, the Troop’s newest Eagle Scout. The Scouts also donated more than $200 to the church’s food pantry through their “Pennies for the Pantry” program, and presented a check made out to the pantry to Pastor Chris Baker on Saturday evening. Pastor Baker thanked the boys for their generous contribution, and mentioned that an increasing number of people have been in need of the pantry recently. He followed with some history on the origins of the Scout Law and Oath. The Scouts and leaders of Troop 134 are very thankful to the church for providing space for the event, providing the Scouts with an opportunity to assist the church and the community. Special thanks to Pastor Chris Baker for making this opportunity a reality. For boys interested in learning more about Troop 134 or Cub Scout Pack 134, with which the Troop partners, please feel free to visit during one of the upcoming open house/registration events scheduled to take place Monday, Sept. 8, and Thursday, Sept. 11, from 6:30-7:30 p.m., at the Mumford Don Marchand, left, and Tony St. Pierre, right, present a check River Lodge, located at 7 Depot Street, Douglas. for the food pantry to Pastor Chris Baker, center.

Spend 2 Days exploring BERNINA State of the Art Sewing Machines, Sergers and Software September 12th &13th In Celebration of Courtesy photos 20 years partnership Eagle Scout candidate touts with Bernina water pollution initiative 12 Stafford St. NORTHBRIDGE — On Aug. 17, David Charlton, MA 01507 Lewis, Eagle candidate for Troop 155 508-248-6632 Northbridge, led a team of volunteers www.charltonsewingcenter.com to raise awareness for water pollution. David and his team of 14 volunteers were split into teams around the town where they placed decals on sewer drains that read “don’t dump, leads to river.” It is David’s hope that by marking these drains, people will think twice before using them to throw garbage and other household items. David worked with Save the Bay in Rhode Island to get the decals and pamphlets to distribute to hoto eprints vailable homeowners in the area. David met with Jim Shuris, DPW director to determine P R A the placement of drains in the towns, and to strategically decide which ones would be best to mark. Together, the team marked over 200 drains in town. Call for details 508-764-4325
