from The Friends of the Blue Hills

Why would you wake up early on a Saturday morning to pull weeds?

What if we said the Blue Hills ecosystems depended on it?

For three Saturdays in June, we will be helping DCR remove invasive species. These are weeds from another part of the country or world that do so well here they kill off the native plant species, depleting the supply of native plants, disrupting the habitat and food supply of everything connected to it in the ecosystem, including insects, wildlife and other plants. By helping to remove these plants, we’ll increase the biodiversity of the ecosystems – meaning more native species will thrive – and the Blue Hills will be home to healthier flora and fauna.

And if you’re still not convinced, well… we’ll provide coffee! Please RSVP for details, including location: 781-828-1805 or judy@FriendsoftheBlueHills.org .

Dear Parents and Guardians:

report to the Pierce auditorium at 1:30 PM tomorrow and the show will start at 3:00 PM.
If you purchased tickets for Thursday evening’s show, we will be honoring those tickets at
the Saturday matinee, June 6th, 2009. If by chance you purchased tickets for the Thursday
evening performance and are unable to able to make the Saturday show, simply contact
Assistant Principal, Anna McReynolds and we will be happy to reimburse you for the cost of
the ticket.
Again, I apologize for this disruption and truly appreciate your flexibility and ongoing
support.
Sincerely yours,
