2. Director Don Grise posted a comment on the Ledyard Patch to remind people of the New York City bus trip on May 5. The trip is a good deal at $46 and people can find out more by calling the office checking www.ledyardrec.org.

And feel free to use the Ledyard Patch to post your announcements. It's super easy and fast, email jessie.king@patch.com for more information.

3. And, tonight is the last of this month’s Stitch and Dish. It’s at the from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. The library’s website says the knitting group is for new and veteran "stitchers" alike. “Whether you're a beginner or a devoted knitter already, you're welcome to join us! The "dish" is for talking, but if you'd like to bring a treat to share, that's fine, too! We hope this new group will be both supportive and fun.”

4. If this weekend is rainy, think about going to tag and bake sale coming this weekend at the Ledyard Congregational Church from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

5. There’s a public hearing tonight about a new ordinance, which would create a water pollution and control authority in Ledyard. Currently, the town council acts as the WPCA. What are your thoughts?
