REMINDER
Awana
Clubs at Epsom Bible Church will begin our 2015-2016 season on
Thursday night September 17th. This will be our 29th year of having
Awana Clubs and we are thankful for the things God has accomplished
through this program in previous years.
Our
Clubs are open to all children in the Epsom area, and we would love
to have your children attend. You do not need to be a member of, or
attend, Epsom Bible Church, for your children to attend. Come to
Club on the 17th or any Thursday evening thereafter between 6:15 and
6:30 PM. Club starts at 6:30 and we end the evening at 8:00. Epsom
Bible Church is at 398 Black Hall Road, approximately 3/4 mile past
the Epsom Central School on the same side of the road (look for the
big sign out front). If you have any questions or would like more
information call Kim or Paul Sanborn at 798-5050 or email at:
[email protected].
On
Wednesday, September 23 at 7:00 PM the Epsom Public Library will
host Fred Marple as he brings his one-man show of Yankee humor,
music and assorted nonsense to the Library. Marple is the
unofficial spokesman for the mythical town of Frost Heaves, NH, and
he’s on a one-man campaign to put Frost Heaves back on the map.
“It’s a one-man crusade because everyone else has real jobs,” says
Marple. As part of the evening’s entertainment, Fred will introduce
some of the local businesses in Frost Heaves, including the Frost
Heaves House of Pizza and the Bait and Beauty Salon, featuring the
Shampoo and Shiner special. He’ll also introduce a few of the
town’s notable citizens, including Sophie Hamilton, 94-year old
organist at the Frost Heaves Community Church (“She’s slowing down,”
says Fred), Homer and Elmer Cratchet (two brothers who are a few
crackers shy of a full box) and Edith “Telegraph” Wyer, town clerk,
among others. Please join us for what looks to be a fun evening.
News For Epsom Seniors
Did you
know there are two Senior Centers serving Epsom seniors? One is in
Pittsfield and you are invited to our Open House on Thursday,
September 24th, from 10 am and 2 pm.
Why
participate at a Senior Center? The answer varies by the
individual. Some like the exercise and yoga classes for bone
building and flexibility. Other folks attend an art class or a
dramatic or musical program. Many like the craft and quilting
clubs. Others enjoy the games and social events. This summer we
hosted perfect summer day lake tours of Squam and Winnipesaukee.
Lunches
are served daily for a nominal fee and for the home-bound, there are
delivered meals. The Pittsfield Senior Center can provide
door-to-door transportation to the Center and to appointments and we
have extensive information about other elder services. Visit our
Open Houses and learn more.
The
Pittsfield Senior Center is on the ground floor of the Pittsfield
Community Center on Main Street. It also serves Barnstead,
Chichester and Loudon. Call Carol Schiferle at 435-8482
for additional information or ask at your library for this month’s
newsletter. Be sure to also visit the
Suncook Senior Center and explore their resources and programs.
They are currently located at the Epsom Bible Church at 398
Blackhall Road and can be reached at 485-4254.
Adah Murray of Epsom, daughter of Sharon Burnston, was
awarded her PhD in School Psychology from Penn State University.
Adah is a graduate of Epsom Central School, Pembroke Academy, and
the College of William & Mary.
