Lighting Up The Holidays

Every year Larry St. Onge (Operations Super- visor in 902) with his family and neighbors go to work like Santa’s elves to prepare their home for the holiday season. Their display of lights is a destination for many families in Southeastern and Eastern and this year was no exception.

But it’s not just about light- ing up their home, its about lighting up the lives of oth- ers as well. Last year Larry’s light dis- play raised a total of over $2,200. Donating $1,100 to both Make a Wish and the local food pantry. The ECSA matched those dona- tions spreading Christmas cheer to both.

This years numbers were not in yet but we expect more of the same - Thousands of visitors and thou- sands of dollars to worthy causes. Thank you Larry for making a difference.

vRide From Attleboro - Good Deal

Theresa Iafrate is putting together a new vanpool to QP on first shift. The van would start in or near Attleboro, have a pick-up point along I- 95 between Pawtucket and North Providence, and then on to work. We need a total of 6 people, and at least one of these six would drive from Attleboro to the pick-up point, where Theresa or others could swap in to drive the rest of the way down. The program would cost a little more than $50/week, (taken pre-tax for additional savings), but you will get a $100 reimbursement each month. Only the first 6 people will be able to make this deal happen, so please act quickly if you want to take advantage of a commute that costs less than $5/day. If you’re interested, click on the link to find out more information.
