Mae Maruski enjoyed her 88th Birthday Party held on April 29th, 2006.  She had lots of folks come to wish her well and it was also great to see her daughter Karen, and granddaughter Vicki.  She thanks everyone for their well wishes.

The Cub Scout Wolf Den 6 will be having a Mother’s Day Pancake Breakfast at the Pavilion in Cromwell on Sunday, May 14th serving from 7:30 AM to Noon.

The Forest Hill Cemetery Board held their Annual Meeting at the Pavilion in Cromwell on May 1st with 13 members attending.  An Election of Officers was held and the new President is Carolyn Krogh, Vice President is Roger Harp, Treasurer is Sam Clark, Secretary it Sheryl Smith and board members (Trustees) are Judy Koivisto, Kathleen Entner, Peggy Olson and Bob Peterson.

There are many plans for the cemetery, but the most urgent is how to keep the funding going.  With the high price of mowing and additional landscaping, it is necessary to ask the families to help out by donating to the Forest Hill Cemetery Fund.  Donations in any amounts can be mailed to Carolyn Krogh, 5459 Krogh Road, Cromwell, MN 55726.  Checks can be made out to Forest Hill Cemetery.  The board is also wanting to find at least one family member as a contact person from each person buried at the cemetery. This contact person could represent several deceased persons.  If you have questions or suggestions please feel free to call or write to any of the board members.  They are looking forward to hearing from you, especially those of you from out of the area.  They have also scheduled a Clean-up Day at the cemetery on May 13th from 9 - noon and the next meeting will be on June 6th at the Pavilion at 7 PM.

Baccalaureate will be at Bethany in Cromwell at 1:30 PM on Mother’s Day, May 14th.
