Chow Down at a Bedford Pasta Dinner this Week!
Here are five things you should know today!
1. Do I get meatballs with that? The Bedford Crew Club is holding a pasta dinner fundraiser on Friday night, May 17 from 6-8:30 p.m. at the Old Town Hall. For only $10/person ($12 at the door, $5 for under 5 years) you get Pasta, Meatballs in Marinara Sauce, Salad, Rolls, Boneless Chicken Breast, Dessert, and a Beverage! All the food is cooked and prepared by the fabulous Denise Ricciardi. In addition to the best meatballs in town, there will be music and door prizes! For more information or to purchase tickets, email Lori Ashooh at lashooh@comcast.net.
2. Spring cool-down continues. Much like yesterday, there's no rain likely in the forecast, but today's predicted high temperature, according to Weather.com, is only 63 degrees with a 10-percent change of precipitation. Never fear, though. Temperatures are expected to gradually rise back into the low 80s by Friday.
3. Shoutout for strawberries! The fourth-annual Bedford Strawberry Festival, organized by the Friends of Town of Bedford Cemeteries, is scheduled for Saturday, June 1, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the athletic fields near the performance state at the Bedford Memorial Pool on County Road. In addition to exhibitors from local service organizations and town entities, there will be local artists and craftsman, face painting and, of course, a strawberry shortcake eating contest to benefit the Stevens-Busewell School project.
