Letter: Thanks for attending the Flea and Fair

Posted

To the editor:

On behalf of the Bristol Historical & Preservation Society, I wish to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone who came out for our Annual Flea and Fair this past weekend. We were delighted to host over 50 vendors and to attract such an interested and attentive audience, especially on a weekend with so many other things to do.

I especially want to thank our local businesses, whose response to our request for donations of raffle prizes went way above and beyond the call. In the end, thanks to their generosity, we were able to offer over 50 prizes to our lucky winners. There are too many businesses to thank here, but we have them listed on our website at www.bhpsri.org.

Please take a minute to look over that list and do what you can to support them. Bristol is so lucky to have these businesses and the wonderful people behind them in our community.

See you next year!

Catherine W. Zipf

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
