    Anyone can go, Lunch is a fee, and not sure how much food over what we told them will be left.

    Yes there should be some jugs, if you want call our warehouse and they will bring some for you. 413-625 2900 Carolyn Wheeler, she will bring some if she has room otherwise the warehouse is only 5-10 minutes down the road and they will open up for sales and pickup.

    Default Feedback

    Hello to anyone who attended todays Mass Maple Meeting, I would love to have your feedback and suggestions on how the whole day went. We had over 150 for lunch and more that attended. our largest turnout for as long as I remember. it shows the you members see change happening in the association.

    as I told you all, the Board of directors represent you... we get our ideas from you.. Thank you all for a successful year, good luck this season

    We have 4 new board members,
    Cynthia Cranston -Ashfield
    Chip Williams-Deerfield
    Andy Schmidt-Windsor
    And Our Pat Delaney(ClanDelaney)-Belchertown

    On another note, I enjoyed serving as your president for the last two years and I will be passing the baton to our next president to be elected at Tuesday's board mtg.
    I'll serve one more year on the board, so I'm still around
