Hawthorne Annual Meeting (Just A Wee Bit On The Frugal Side)

Photo By John Hoff

Hawthorne is a frugal place. We used last year's sign placard, simply changing the year with Whiteout and Sharpie, plus sawing off the bottom; which had the name of last year's guest speaker. Some...

...decorative leaves spread about, a few eye-catching little scarecrow men, and nobody was the wiser. Until now! The inside dope revealed, right here, baby.

Note how one of the scarecrow men is pointing to the placard, providing useful information. The other scarecrow stands prepared to physically intervene if trouble should arise.

He looks ready to tell some criminal to hit the road...Hawthorne is re-vitalizing, baby!

This meeting was packed with people, and this year's board vote had the excitement and energy of a precinct caucus. I'm told the turnout was much more than last year.
