The Next Generation of Volunteers:
Newton Elementary School 2nd grade students, who have been using the Strafford Area Lions Club Pond for Nature Study this year, spread a newly delivered load of sand this month.
Their teacher, when asking if her students could help, said, "We've been talking a lot about taking care of our community and looking for ways to help in our community.
This feels like a tangible thing to do for the second graders to feel like they are helping take care of a place they love."
