that Dynegy Energy Services has been selected as the supplier for its Community Choice Power Supply Program. This Program is a municipal aggregation which enables local government to combine the purchasing power of its residents and businesses to provide them
with an alternative to National Grid Basic Service. The aggregation rate is $0.10287/kWh, below the November 1, 2020 – April 30, 2021 National Grid Basic Service rate of $0.12388/kWh. Standard supply customers will collectively save over $600,000 in this six-month
period. Over the 3-year term of the agreement, Easton customers will collectively save an estimated $2.2 million in electricity costs.

Fairs. We are excited to bring the community together as we continue to support the young people in all things musical. The town of Easton has a phenomenal music program, from elementary through high school, producing award-winning groups in Jazz Band, Marching
Band, Orchestra, Show Choir and Chorus. For many young people music, art and theatre is the connection they need to stay in school. It has been proven that music enhances mathematical ability, and that creativity fosters intelligence. For many young people
the Arts overall is their pathway to college. TEMPO (The Easton Music Parents Organization) provides the assistance needed to ensure these programs continue and grow, enabling more students to participate in music activities. TEMPO is a non-profit organization
dedicated to supporting music programs at all levels of the Easton Public Schools from elementary to high school. The Virtual Holiday Fair will run through December 22<sup>nd
