Thrifting Items for a Good Cause
Cleaning out? We're seeking donations of those items you no longer want and are just taking up space in your home or garage: home decor, small appliances, books, music, toys, puzzles, games, jewelry, linens, kitchenware, tools... almost anything! But no glassware, clothing, or furniture. Please bring items to the March 28 breakfast, or contact finnishcenter@yahoo.com or 978-407-9690 (text or voicemail). Someone will contact you to make other arrangements.

Sauna Week Fun
By Jane Potsaid
At the recent February Saima Park breakfast we recognized and celebrated sauna week along with Finns in Finland and across the United States by a scavenger hunt to our sauna which many people had not seen. People checked off interesting places and artifacts on the walk to and in the sauna. The hunt for items then continued to the library where more items could be found. Participants were surprised there were so many interesting things to see and history to learn. We plan to repeat the activity when it's a nice warm day. Scrub up!
A Special Thank You…
