In Appreciation of the Soup's On Committee

A great big THANK YOU to the Forbes Hall Soup’s On crew for their gustatory delights every Wednesday for the past six months. Not only were we able to sample such a wonderful variety of soups and home-made breads, but the dessert goodies alone were 5 star. This weekly event throughout the winter and early spring allowed for great community connections and camaraderie. Speaking personally, I was delighted to meet several new-to-our-island residents as well as be available for face-to-face quick informal meetings for fire department issues. I am also sure many others took advantage of the convivial lunch atmosphere and found advice, concern, and assistance and new friendships through the connections made over a steaming bowl of soup and a hot cup of coffee. The weekly volunteers who make this event such a huge success are wonderful and I hope that others will join their merry band in the Fall to continue this valuable work.
