June 2020 • Issue #6 • Chebeague Island Council Calendar

On the Cover The cover this month features several of our Island COVID Crusaders! The Food Pantry has become an invaluable resource to so many of us this spring. The access to fresh fruit, vegetables, flour, and sugar (aside from the always crucial Doughty’s Market) has been such a gift that we wanted to send a special thank you to the crew that makes it possible every week. Featured in the photo left to right is Eliza Jane Adams, Jen Corson and Denise Hamilton. Not seen in the picture but always at the Pantry is Polly Wentworth. Thanks to all of you! Look for Eliza Jane Adams to be handing out free wildflower seeds next to the Food Pantry everyWednesday. A bright and cheery addition! Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone on the island and missing the island this month. We will get through this together and see you all soon. Be safe and stay home. About the Calendar The Calendar is published monthly by the Chebeague Island Council. Available on-line at Chebeague Island News (www.chebeague.org) or www.islandcalendar. weebly.com and mailed to every occupied residence on the island, for a small additional fee, it can also be delivered by first-class mail to Island Council members who are off island at the time of publication. The Calendar welcomes submissions from its readers, including letters and thank you notes, but it cannot publish anything that is political in nature, libelous, or obscene. All submissions should include the author’s name and contact information.. Without exception, the deadline for submissions is noon on the 20 th day of the month preceding publication.
