Dear neighbors and friends,
The weather is starting to break and it's great to see more and more people enjoy our beautiful campus. We're excited to have the Easter Egg Hunt back this year and hope you'll come out with your children and grandchildren to enjoy our annual event. The students love this event as a way to give back to the community.
If you follow the College's social media, or happened to walk by East Cottage, you may have noticed a new resident. After losing our dog Nika a year ago, we have welcomed Koda to the family. We're working on training and getting her vaccinations up to date, but we hope to see you soon on a walk.
Best,
Andrea E. Chapdelaine
President
