Summer Campers Say Thanks

To the Editor:

During the past several years, Mr Howard Lasher has been instrumental in raising over $70,000 for the Campership Fund. Through his efforts, many children, whose families could not otherwise afford it, have been able to enjoy the experience of summer day camp. In honor of Mr Lasher’s dedication to the children of Newtown, the day camp was named Camp Lash.

The Newtown Parks & Recreation Department, on behalf of the nearly 150 children who were able to take advantage of this scholarship fund, would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr Lasher for his continued support and commitment to our community.

Sincerely,

Barbara Kasbarian, Director
