Sue Motycka performed our chapter's annual laying of a beautiful wreath made by Emmy Lou at the grave of Eunice Cobb Stocking, Still Hill Cemetery, Glastonbury. A few words were said and we observed a moment of silence to reflect on how difficult the family's Christmas must have been in 1777. Bree played "Our Country 'Tis of Thee" on a small bowed psaltery. It was a beautiful day.

We had a wonderful presentation tonight by Alex Kendziorski on Painted Wolves Conservation. We learned a lot about these amazing creatures. If you are interested in making a personal donation to support the conservation efforts in Africa then please consider one of the following organizations:

Painted Dog Conservation - www.painteddog.org - donate page https://donate.wildnet.org/?fund=Painted_Dog__
Endangered Wildlife Trust - www.ewt.org.za - donation can be done from the US, but takes longer.
Wildlife ACT - wildlifeact.com - donate button https://wildlifeact.com/donate/

Wildlife ACT also does fantastic virtual classes about tracking of animals - and poachers - that is great for getting a perspective into what conservation involves.

This weekend there is a Kindle free giveaway of Alex's books:
Alex has written three novels to support the efforts of Painted Wolves Conservation. Please log in Friday - Sunday and download the trilogy. Hopefully, if people enjoy the books, they can spread the word in social media, on Reddit, and elsewhere, so the books can become a useful fundraiser. The organizations above have been the recipients of all the money made from Alex's books.

They are the things we pass by each day in a blur. The lonely bell, the silent memorial or a crumbling foundation. Each Wednesday through the late summer and fall, we will bring you the silent and forgotten history of Glastonbury .
