ON THE COVER: Spring is here and what
better way to celebrate the season than
with a brand new, fresh Spring show. On
Saturday, April 30th, the Comm will debut
its first annual Greenhouse & Kitchen
Show. This year, Show vendors will
introduce visitors to new and innovative ways
to enhance their homes, inside and out.
Many of this year’s
exhibitors are new to
the Comm’s annual
spring show, including
Elena Colombo who
is known all over the
world for her custom
fire and wind features
and Mark Chuck,
2006 receipient of
the F. Lammot Belin
Arts Scholarship,
whose love of fish is artfully represented in
his unique decorative and utilitarian ceramic
ware. All of this year’s vendors come with lots
of fresh ideas and new approaches to design
as well as tips for healthy eating alternatives
and sustainable gardening. The Show kicks
off with a Launch Party on Friday, April 29th
beginning at 5:30pm in the Comm Lobby.
The Party is catered by Terra Preta and
local craft beers and wine will be served. All
proceeds from the Launch Party and Show
will benefit the new CommKids Interactive
Learning Center which opens in the Fall.

THE NEW ABINGTON
VISITOR CENTER AT
THE COMM
The Abington Visitor Center
at the Waverly Community House
is officially open! The Center
combines both educational and
recreational elements to offer
community members a place to learn
more about the region and what it
has to offer.
With this sentiment, the
Waverly Community House has
partnered with various local
businesses, attractions and
organizations in order to provide the
public with a modern educational
facility while increasing the exposure
of many of our valued community
neighbors within the Abingtons.
The Abington Visitor Center features
historic photographs, recreational
materials, informational brochures
and other displays intended to
highlight the Comm and all of the
Abingtons.
Guests will have the opportunity
to learn about the history of the
Waverly Community House by
viewing pieces previously housed in
its Archive Space. The Center will
continue to update and revolve its
exhibits and displays to accentuate
the history and vibrancy of both the
Comm and the Abington Community.

Throughout the year, the Waverly
Community House offers many volunteer
opportunities for you and your family
members. Volunteers come in all sizes,
shapes and age groups but the one thing
they all have in common is the gift of their
time to assist the Comm in making each
event here the best that it can be.
The Student Volunteer Registry was
established to make it easy for students
and youth leaders to find and complete
volunteer projects that instill in them a
sense of service and, at the same time,
benefit their community.
Volunteering at the Comm is FUN!
Whatever your talent, there’s a place for
it here. Whether you are good at baking,
fundraising, hospitality or sales or you
just want to make a difference in your
community and have some time to spare,
the Comm invites you to join our family of
volunteers and learn how rewarding it can
be!
For information on how you can help
the Comm, please contact Alexandra
