Every year, our local civic organization, the Hillsdale Ruritan Club, as a community project, serves watermelon for the Hillsdale Elementary School's Annual Back to School Night. Parents and students come to school in the evening to meet the teachers and visit their child's classroom. Everyone also has the opportunity to tour the school and meet the Principal and her staff.
So tonight we set up tables in the school parking lot, backed up a pick-up truck loaded with watermelons, then cut and served watermelon to students, parents, and teachers. We club members also ate our share of watermelon.
Everyone enjoyed the watermelon and the opportunity to meet friends and neighbors in the community. A great time for socializing in an informal setting . . . and the kids all had fun spitting watermelon seeds!
