in the contest creating the logos and Raising Multicultural Kids (RMK) generously agreed to fund prize money for the top 5 designs. The HRC and RMK selected the top 5 entries and now we are asking the Easton community to vote for their favorite design. The

of our volunteers, where you can share stories or experiences, chat about current events, or just make small talk. This is also a great way to get to know some fellow seniors in town. If you are interested in enrolling to receive calls, please call the COA
