GFWC Taunton and Raynham Jr. Woman's Club participated in the Lion's Club Dighton Art Festival
event at Araujo's Farm and Greenhouses. Children were invited to decorate a star ornament and attach it to an evergreen tree to be donated to Homes for Troops and dedicated to all veterans for Christmas. Patrons could also sign Christmas cards which will be distributed to veterans.

Historical Tidbit:
School Recess
"Students today would find it difficult to understand one of the policies stated in the 1868 town report, '...fifteen minute recess each half day for each scholar. In no case shall boys and girls have their recess at the same time.' "
From: The History of Raynham, Patrice White

How to Rake Without the Ache!
Never continue to do one task using the same hand and the same repetitive motion. It can lead to aches and a weakened posture that can cause injury. Switch hands while raking, spending a few minutes on each side of the body so both get worked and neither gets overworked.

From their website:
"
After being part of many other “official” networking groups in the past I knew the ins and outs of what works and what doesn’t. I saw first- and how strict, rigid, corporate, and EXPENSIVE being a part of these other groups can be. The only requirement I was adamant on was that OUR group will be fun, relaxed, efficient, and FREE!" ~ NGUSA Founder Brendon Elliot
Come check out the Raynham Meeting of Networking Group USA.

Yes, You Can!
You can design your own life, you can change those habits that are holding you back, you can build a better life for yourself.
Small changes that help your mind, your body or your spirit make a big difference. Take on one bad habit at a time, something you think is holding you back.
The amount of time it takes to change a habit varies from the person, the circumstance and the habit itself, but prevailing wisdom says it's somewhere between 2 - 3 months.
Here are some tips:
- Set clear goals. Make sure the behaviors you want to change are specific, measurable, and attainable. ...
- Make a realistic plan. Set yourself up for success by making sure you have practical ways to reach your goals. ...
- Avoid making too many changes at once. ...
- Think positively. ...
- Change for yourself, not anyone else.
