Don't forget your Mount Holly Calendar. More info here.

Another winter has arrived with lots of snow and more sure to come.

The Mount Holly Community Association needs your help finding someone or some company who would shovel the entry ways to the Library and Community Room.

This has proven to be somewhat challenging and we have not had any luck so far. We are reaching out to all the newsflash readers hoping you might have a suggested resource.
Maybe you want to have a little extra exercise?!

We will gladly pay for this service!!

Our historic building is a community center with many individuals and groups making use of the building. Without someone to shovel we are left with mounds of snow to traverse from the snow plow. If you were a little kid it would feel like a fun adventure but to most adults who use the building it is anything but fun!

Please reach out to mhcavt@gmail.com or contact Jennifer 614-668-5282 or Linda 802-345-1740. We hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks for your support as we make our way through another winter in Mount Holly!!

Christmas tree care

Here are two simple tips that will help your Christmas tree stay green and hold its needles longer:

1) Just before placing your tree in the stand, cut off about 2 inches from the trunk so there is a fresh wood submerged in the water. If you cut the tree the same day or have kept it in water since cutting this isn't needed. Of course, keep the stand reservoir filled with clean warm water through the holidays.

2) Do not place any fresh fruits like bananas, apples, or pears in the same room as your tree. Fruits emit a natural vapor of ethylene gas that stimulates ripening. The effect of this gas on a cut evergreen tree is to trigger it to drop its needles! Keep all fresh fruit well away from your live tree and you'll be sweeping up fewer needles.
