FEBRUARY 2017 CHEBEAGUE ISLAND COUNCIL CALENDAR
Notes from the Hall
This month is our ever-popular Thanksgiving in February
Community Lunch sponsored by Island Electric. We will also
have two weeks of soup lunches sponsored by David Scrase
and Melanie Gustafson. A new feature of the Wednesday get-
togethers is cards at every table so that diners can express their
thanks to our terrific donors.
We are very excited about our upcoming Baked Bean and Bingo
Night on March 4. This event is being sponsored by Maine
Island Energy and promises to be a rip-roaring night of fabulous
comfort food and old-fashioned fun!
We are also trying to be as “green” as possible by using
recycled paper goods (including coffee cups and lids) that are
also compostable. Most of our non-meat scraps and leftovers
gleaned from plates and bowls go to Sam’s chickens and come
back to the community in the form of Chebeggs. But now we are
also trying to reduce our footprint by serving food in containers
that can be added to your home compost pile.
Thanks so much for your continued support! See you at the Hall!

Island Commons gatherings (a.k.a. parties!) are
our way of welcoming the Chebeague community
into our “home” to share good food, good
company and good times. Turnout is always high
(100+ at the last two events). We’re planning
a “Good Bye Winter/Hello Spring” open house.
Watch for details in the next Calendar!
Your Annual Appeal donations make it possible
for us to continue serving our island elders. We
couldn’t do it without you! Thank You to all who
have given so generously this year!
We are also accepting secure online donations
through our new website:
www.islandcommons.comWhat a difference our new van has made… our residents are out and about,
tooling around the island in warmth, comfort and safety!
