As the seasons change and move through to the inevitable North Country winter, we at Half-Shire also are hard at work preparing the building and grounds for the cold. Two new high efficiency propane furnaces will be installed in the main hall in the next week. These units come to us largely through the Pulaski Community Fund which awarded our organization $3,000 towards their purchase and installation.

The leaves are turning on the trees across the eastern shore region, and our rural roads and communities are drawing an increasing number of weekend tourists. The salmon have come up the Salmon River and other area stream in great number, and despite lower water are making it upstream.

The annual meeting of the society was sparsely attended with only 21 present. President Doyle was unable to attend as he was forced into work and Vice President Monette was out of town. So, Trustee Margaret Kastler ran the meeting.

On Monday September 17 the Society will host an open house reception put on by the Pulaski Lions Club to mark their 50th anniversary. The group, formed in 1961, has been headquartered at Half-Shire on the second floor since 2001.
