The kids, Paco Eldridge (front left) and Gabriel Labonte, and Erika Labonte, Thea Martin and Linsy Eldridge paid themselves $2 each and donated the rest to the food bank. ­ Submitted photo GREEN THUMBS: With a lot of hard work and dedication, volunteers helped build beds at the new Acton Community Garden at Rotary Park last Thursday. ­ Ted Tyler photo BOOMING BUSINESS: While hoards of eager shoppers checked out the goods at the 25-plus family garage sale on Dairy Drive on Saturday, Christan, 7, and his friends, sisters Megan, 7, and Chloe, 5, did a steady business selling lemonade. ­ Angela Tyler photo NEARER TO GOD: The roof of the major expansion of Bethel Christian Reformed Church began to take shape on Monday as crews began installing trusses. ­ Submitted photo ACE ATHLETES: Members of the St. Joseph's School Track and Field Team performed well at the recent Board-wide finals in Burlington last week.
