SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING

So if you see something you know shouldn't be there or someone's behavior that doesn't seem quite right say something.

Describe specifically what you observed, including: Who or what you saw; When you saw it; Where it occurred; and Why it's suspicious.

Students and staff should report anything suspicious to a staff member or administrator. They can also re-port anonymously to the Easthampton Police Depart-

ment tip line at

https://www.easthamptonpd.com/anonymous-tip.html

Help support them represent Massachusetts in DC http://www.westernmassnews.com/clip/14167099/easthampton-students-

unteered at Maple

Congratulations to Ms. Davis for

winning the Mill 180 Park gnome

mascot competition

This fall Mill 180 Park put out a Call to Artists to de-sign a gnome to be the mascot for their indoor park. They were looking for both 2D and 3D sub-missions. Ms. Davis sub-mitted a 3D design in glazed ceramic named "Garden Harvest Gnome" and won first prize in the 3D category. The design features a gnome sitting on top of Mt. Tom, holding some vegetables and art-making tools with a pipe wrench at his side. These elements were all includ-ed as a nod to the City of Easthampton and its di-

verse history including the mill industry, the local renaissance of the Arts and finally the park's hydroponic vegetable cultivation. If you are curious about the contest, the information is here: https://www.mill180park.com/2017/11/28/design-gnome-competition/
