Momentum in Full Swing for <strong>Holliston</strong> in Bloom<br />
May was a very busy month for<br />
<strong>Holliston</strong> in Bloom! Thanks to all<br />
the volunteers who came to our<br />
Spring Clean-up at Blair Square/<br />
Rail Trail on May 7. Despite the<br />
cool, damp weather, we had a total<br />
of 23 people - of all ages, including<br />
Girl Scout Brownie Troop<br />
89238. A mild winter and many<br />
hands helped make the clean-up a<br />
breeze!<br />
The HBA Spring Festival was<br />
very well attended on May 14<br />
and the weather was picture perfect.<br />
<strong>Holliston</strong> in Bloom gave out<br />
over 200 marigold seedlings who<br />
wanted to bring home the town<br />
flower. The uber-talented (and<br />
winged) Tate sisters Sammy and<br />
Maddy worked their fairy magic<br />
with face paints and brushes. Even<br />
a couple of adults sat down to get<br />
the special treatment! Our Fairy<br />
& Toad Garden contest attracted<br />
its first toad abode this year. Our<br />
young participants all waited anxiously<br />
for the judging at the end of<br />
the day and each won a prize.<br />

On Sunday, May 15, a group<br />
of 20 volunteers descended on<br />
the <strong>Holliston</strong> Police Station for the<br />
second phase of Brandon Battick’s<br />
Eagle Scout project. Brandon’s<br />
project included renovating some<br />
existing beds, and creating new<br />
beds near the entry and exits of the<br />
Police Station. Phase I involved<br />
removal of grassy areas and overgrown<br />
shrubs at the foundation,<br />
and adding compost to the new<br />
beds. Several <strong>Holliston</strong> in Bloom<br />
PHD’s (professional hole diggers)<br />
joined Eagle Scout Brandon Battick,<br />
Boy Scout Troup 72 along<br />
with several parents, Selectman Jay<br />
Marsden and his family, and Mark<br />
Ahronian of Ahronian Landscaping<br />
at the <strong>Holliston</strong> Police Station.<br />
New perennials and annuals were<br />
planted in the large beds, new<br />
shrubs replaced the overgrown<br />
rosebushes, plants were to Officer<br />
Johnson’s memorial under<br />
the Moon Tree, mulch was spread<br />
onto the new and existing beds,<br />
and another team also weeded<br />

the rear slope. Upon completion<br />
of the work, Lieutenant Denman<br />
presented a Certificate of Appreciation<br />
from Police Chief Moore.<br />
All plantings were donated by the<br />
Huntington/Cohen family, Ahronian<br />
Landscaping, and <strong>Holliston</strong><br />
in Bloom.<br />
We want to thank Michelle<br />
Savino for her generous support<br />
for our Fashion Show on May 22<br />
at Upper Town Hall. Her salon<br />
not only styled all the hair fashions,<br />
they donated raffle prizes and<br />
wine, and also coordinated the entire<br />
show. We also appreciate our<br />
friends at Fine Feathers in Medway<br />
for providing the fun fashions and<br />
accessories for the models, Dave<br />
