Annual Easter Egg Hunt A Hopping Success!!
The Ninth Annual Common Fence Point Improvement Association Easter Egg Hunt
took place in the park on Saturday, April 4, 2015 at 1:00 pm. It was a
windy, blustery day, but enthusiasm was high!
Children in three age groups
filled their baskets with plastic eggs with candy inside.
Some eggs had numbers inside them that indicated a prize. A visit from the
Easter Bunny offered photo ops for families. Special thanks to Tracy Boyd
and Marilyn Napier for selling raffle tickets and giving out the prizes.
Thanks to Samantha Jefferds, Nick Johnson, Hollie Johnson, Kristen Fontaine
and Jessie Jefferds who filled all the eggs. Thanks to Jacob Kimes, and Owen
Hamilton, along with Samantha, Nick and Hollie for putting all the eggs out. And a big thanks to Jackie Shearman for making this happen!

"
Free To Breathe" Zumbathon raised $7,500
On March 28th, CFP friends and neighbors came together to celebrate our neighbor, Leanne Gablinske, and support her daughter, Hailey Gablinske, in raising awareness for Lung Cancer. Hailey raised over $7500 for the
Rhode Island Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Here is a link to a short slide show (set to Zumba music, of course!) of the festivities. You'll see a lot of familiar faces:

A Note from Hailey: "For those who don't know me, my name is Hailey Gablinske and I'm a senior at Portsmouth High School. Four months ago, I came home to the heartbreaking news that my mom had been diagnosed with lung cancer. It was a long road watching my mom suffer through countless chemotherapy treatments, radiation, blood transplants, and several other procedures. As her only child and the only other person living with her, it ripped me apart to see her deteriorate day by day. As the months progressed, the cancer found it's way to four other places in her body: liver, spine, blood, and brain. Up until a month ago when she was admitted to Rhode Island Hospital, my mom lived without home care and tended to herself and her disease as much as she humanly could. Needless to say, she was one hell of a fighter. Although she endured an amount of suffering that most of us will never grasp, not once did she complain or allow anyone to pity her. On December 5th, the disease got the best of her body and I lost my best friend. Although the process was more than painful to watch, I am beyond thankful for the nurses and doctors at Rhode Island Hospital who guided my mom through the last two weeks of her life. These professionals worked to make my mom as comfortable as possible while also fighting for her until the very end. In memory of my mom, I hosted a Zumba Fundraiser in order to give back to the Rhode Island Hospital Comprehensive Cancer Center. My hopes for this senior project is to raise Lung Cancer Awareness by having fun and giving back to a good cause as Zumba was one of her favorite things to do. All proceeds will be donated to the Rhode Island Hospital Comprehensive Cancer Center.
