Gilford High School Seniors Prepare
Gilmanton Year-Round Library For
Summer
Gilmanton Year-Round Library thanks Gilford High School students who
devoted their day on May 25th to preparing the Library grounds for
summer. Emily Watson, Christoph Duenn, Daniel Minukehin, Tyler
Haddock, Zach McNutt, Seth McNutt, Chester Fox, Megan Pleeter,
Rachel Colbath and Nicole Allen
May 25th was a fine day for the Gilmanton Year-Round Library thanks
to ten diligent Gilford High School seniors who worked from 9:00 am
to 2:00 in the afternoon. They mulched trees, shrubs and the 80 foot
perennial garden in front of the Library and planted bushes. They
raked out stones from grass left by snow plowing, carted away weeds
and garden debris, washed all inside and outside windows and raked
and weeded the long path from the road to the Library.
The Gilmanton Year-Round Library community extends thanks to the
cheerful, hardworking GHS seniors, who participated in this
community service project. They worked all day with only a quick
pizza break, to make the Library and grounds picture perfect and
ready for summer library patrons.
At the end of the day, Kristie and Steve Owens brought three flats
of cream and rose colored African daisies from Coles Garden Center.
After planting the flowers, all agreed the flowers added a touch of
color to an already perfect setting.
