Perusing the Stow Sentry this morning I came upon the following items of interest:

1) There is a volunteer opportunity for the club to Adopt a Spot by "planting, maintaining, weeding and dead-heading the plants within their assigned site every week during the the course of the program." Sites available at the moment are the SKIP Playground North side raised bed, Service Building Sign along City Center Blvd and Maplelawn Cemetery on Darrow Road. If anyone is interested in claiming a site for the club, let me know in the comments or by email. If we get enough participants I will set it up or if you would like to volunteer by yourself call arborist Sue Motti at (330) 689-5121 or email at smotti@stow.oh.us.

2) There are also 2 opportunities to help weed and mulch fire stations in June. June 16 from 1 till 3pm they will be at Fire Station #3 on Fishcreek and June 23 from 1 till 3pm they will be at Fire Station #2 on Hudson Dr. You are encouraged to bring your own tools if possible as they will have a limited supply. As before, you can leave a comment or email me and I can set it up as a club effort or you can contact Sue Motti, who's contact information is above in item 1).

3) Finally there are two chances to meet with State Rep. Kristina Roegner (R - Hudson), one in May and one in June. On May 14th (this Monday) Rep. Roegner will be holding office hours from 9 till 10am at the Hudson Library and Historical Society, 96 Library St in Hudson. No appointment is necessary, but you can make one by contacting Rep. Roegner at (614) 466-1177 or district42@ohr.state.oh.us. On June 4th Rep. Roegner will be at the SMF Library in the conference room from 9:30 till 10am to take questions and hear comments from the public.

If you saw anything interesting I missed, leave it in the comments or email me at stowrepublicanclub@hotmail.com.
