Thank You

Barbara Muir would like to thank the people who donated pet food to be given to the Windham Food Pantry on June 30. The food is very much appreciated by both the animals and their humans. With your generous help, there are some very happy and tummy-filled cats and dogs in town. Thanks so much.
