Pirone Park Perimeter Path Holiday Decorations

Would you like to help the Ayer Parks Department decorate the perimeter path at Pirone Park this holiday season?  We would like to set up a collection of Christmas trees and snowmen along the walkway, and thought it might be a fun activity for families and individuals of Ayer to jump in.  Here’s how it works:

• The Parks Department will be making plywood cutouts of Christmas trees and snowmen, about 4’ tall and 2’ wide, for people to decorate. 
• Participants can decorate their cutout any way they like, with the proviso that they use materials and techniques that will allow them to stand out in harsh conditions for a month or more.
• Those wishing to participate can contact the Parks Department via email at parks@ayer.ma.us to reserve a cutout and set up a time to pick it up (only one cutout per family please).  The cost to participate will be $20 and you choose between a tree or snowman and be asked to give the $20 when you pick up your cutout.  You will also need to fill out a brief form with contact info.  Those who participated last year and still have their trees/snowmen can use them again if you like.
• There is a limited supply, so once we run out, we will need to discontinue distributing them. Reserve your cutout ASAP to guarantee you will get one. Participants must return their decorated cutouts by December 1^st.  The Parks Department will set up the decorated trees and snowmen once they are returned.
• The decorations will remain up through the school holiday break, then be taken down some time after that.  Those wishing to reuse their cutouts for next year can pick them up after January 8.

We hope you and your family will want to join the fun!  If you have any questions, feel free to call Jeff Thomas at the Parks Department office at 978-796-5915.

Thank you
