We appreimageciate all who attended last week's meeting at the Wayland Police Station. Our sincere gratitude goes to Chief Ed Burman for once again welcoming us into their conference room. Special thanks to Janot Mendler de Suarez and Christopher Reynolds, along with Scarlett Hoey, Executive Director of the Wayland Museum and Historical Society, for an engaging presentation about the upcoming Wayland Festival, set for October 4, 2025. This promises to be a remarkable community celebration, and we look forward to exploring ways to get involved.

Kudos to Richard DeVito and our amazing volunteers for another successful Kids Fishing Derby! Your dedication brought joy to many young participants. We also want to recognize Mark Messina for leading the Seedlings for First Graders project with tireless effort and heart—thank you to all who lent a hand.

We now look ahead to two important events this week, and encourage every member to take part:
