Five Things: EG Football Fever

Avenger Football playoff game: POSTPONED! Because of the snowy/rainy weather, tonight's game has been postponed 24 hours. After a near-perfect regular season – including a win Thanksgiving Day against Narragansett – the Avengers take on Moses Brown tonight at 6 p.m. at Carcieri Field. The Booster Club is promising free cowbells to the first 60 students (after all, you can never have enough cowbell).

After-football fundraiser: After the game, head to the brand new Orange Leaf frozen yogurt shop at 1000 Division Street, where 20 percent of sales Wednesday night will be donated to the Avenger Football team. The store will be open until 11 p.m.

December break Rec signups: EG Parks and Rec will be offering three days of trips and activities for area children, in grades 1-6, during the December Vacation week. Children may either sign up for a whole day of activities or simply a trip or a project. Registration begins today by mail. Walk-in registrations will not be accepted until Nov. 28. Camper-ships and reduced fees are available for those on public assistance. Flyers and registration forms were passed out at the local elementary schools and are available at the office, the Town Hall, the East Greenwich Free Library, or on the web at www.eastgreenwichri.com. The department will continue to offer a full day program for the youths needing all day care. The office will be open at 8:30 am and close at 5:00 p.m. The children will participate in the scheduled trips and activities. No alternative activities are planned, so sign up now to secure a spot.
