An email has been sent out to all departments inviting children of faculty to come trick-or-treat at our complex. I will provide units with bags of candies, and signs that you could put on your door to invite the children to knock. Of course you can go the extra mile and answer the door with a costume on and dancing to Michael Jackson's "Thriller" - whatever works for you.
If you are the parent of a trick-or-treater and you have questions, email David.Lukofsky@dartmouth.edu for more details.
These will be available at our North Park "Exam break" brunch this Saturday December 1st. Food will be available from 10:30-noon in the North Park Laundry Room.

This Sunday is special - it will be 10 days that spring has begun and most importantly it is the day that Australia moves its clock back one hour. In honor of this special moment for our friends down under, we will unite for a *Spring Time BBQ*!
When: Sunday, March 30th, 12:30pm - 2:30pm
Where: Outside North Park Laundry Room (it's spring!)
What: A spring BBQ
Menu: Hotdogs, veggie dogs, condiments... and diet Coke (back by popular demand)
All of us are being served with a nice big cup of spring weather and I'm sure we are enjoying it. A common activity during a non-global warmed New England spring season consists of going deep into the woods, drilling a hole in a Maple tree and drinking the liquid inside. In fact, the act of 'sugaring' consists of taking Maple sap and boiling it down to maple syrup. Boiling it some more thickens the water even more and makes Maple taffy (also known as Sugar-On-Snow). Further boiling gives Maple butter.
To honor this natural wonder, all North Parkers are invited to partake in the NP Sugar-on-Snow Party!
What: North Park Sugar-on-Snow!
When: This Sunday!
Residents of North Park Graduate Housing are encouraged to recycle. Here are some pointers.
