Residents are certainly spoiled for choice if they wish to participate in village life. I have made a few changes to the layout of the mag—mostly regarding size of text which I know has been an issue for some. If I have got it wrong—no doubt you will let me know! I’ve added a crossword with a Stebbing flavour , and although largely cryptic, I’ve tried to include a few easy ones to get people started. It would be good to get some different setters if anyone wants a go. Read, enjoy and have a very, very good Christmas.

Fans will be able to see footage of the amazing surprise during the award ceremony which airs on Sunday 30th March from 5:00pm. The inaugural award was created especially for the band, who was the UK host of the award show in 2007. It recognises the band’s outstanding 10 years in the music industry entertaining a generation of kids. “Back in 2007 we were the UK hosts of Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards handing out the blimps rather than receiving them," said McFly’s Tom Fletcher. "McFly's ten years have been insanely awesome and having the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles award us Favourite Band of the Decade has to be one of the highlights. Cowabunga dudes!” It was announced this week that Top 10 iTunes selling artist Aloe Blacc and new band American Authors will take the stage and perform at the epic award show, taking place at the Galen Centre in Los Angeles.

Voters making selections in their own branch categories list only film titles on their ballots, not the individuals responsible for the various achievements. For that reason, as well as for reasons of printing time and convenience of using this pamphlet, full credit rosters are not provided for the listed films. An exception to the above exists in the four Acting categories, where simply listing titles would not provide enough voting information. Actors Branch members filling out their Nominations ballots must indicate both titles and the particular performers they are voting for. For that reason, the Reminder List provides a listing of up to fifty cast members for each film. Pictures eligible in the Animated Feature Film, Documentary Feature and Foreign Language Film categories are also eligible in the Best Picture category, provided they meet the qualifications for the category. Foreign Language films are eligible for awards in other categories provided they meet the requirements of Awards Rules Two and Three.

Because of vandalism beyond repair to the original Bow Center sign, the Heritage Commission, under the leadership of Chairman Gary Nylen, sought to design, build, and erect a new sign. The project began early in 2011, and it was completed in November, 2011. The Heritage Com- mission would like to thank the following residents for their many volunteer hours to make this project a reality: Carol Colby did all of the original artwork including laying out the map design and doing theoriginal painted folk art to depict the various historic features unique to this intersection. Don Berube transformed the original oil painting onto an aluminum plate suitable for this type of signage. Matt Bailey routed the signage on the top and bottom and painted it. Young Furniture Manufacturing Company provided the structural framing for the sign. Charlie Griswold, President of the Men’s Club, along with Gary Nylen proudly assembled the new sign for residents and visitors alike to enjoy.
