As you know, the Spring 2010 Free Keene Fest is this Sunday at Railroad Sq. in downtown Keene from 11a-4p. If you are coming out, please bring some non-perishable food for the Free Keene food drive to be donated to the Community Kitchen. Also please bring any books you’d like to donate to the Cheshire jail library. (Preferably pro-liberty books.) Here’s the forum thread about this event.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Thank you to everyone who came out last weekend, I had a great time! They are finishing up next weekend, and we could really use your help wrapping up. MoCo Arts is a non profit, community-based, family-centered organization sharing the gift of dance primarily with children in the community. 
Details on volunteering can be found here, and I’m inviting Free Keene readers out, Saturday October 3rd, from 12pm-4:20pm. This is a total volunteer effort, so wear your panting clothes and bring supplies if you have them. Hope to see you there!
Robin Hood of Keene doesn’t rob anybody, but does like to help out those in need: particularly patrons of downtown Keene whose parking meters have expired. By adding extra coins, Robin Hood saves those patrons from the hassle and extra expense of parking citations given by the orders of the Crown of Keene and distributed by his sheriffs. After all, what business does the Crown of Keene have demanding money to park your car in a public place?
I’m one of Robin Hood’s merry men, and I’d like to tell you a story that happened to me the other day while carrying out Robin Hood’s mission. Two fellow merry men and I were checking the meters around Central Square when we found an expired one in front of Pepper Pete’s Hot Shop. I put in some coins, deposited a note on the car’s windshield to alert the driver, and was on my way. But as I left, I noticed Pepper Pete come out of his store and stand on the sidewalk. He said nothing but I was alert, because in the past Pepper Pete has accosted some merry men, accusing them of acting illegally and berating them for soliciting money.
I walked to the end of the street, finished my metering duties, and returned from whence I came, passing Pepper Pete again. Again, he said nothing. I was a little suspicious, so after I turned the corner, I stopped and peered back down the street through the window of the corner shop. I saw Pepper Pete walk to the car that for which I had deposited coins and remove my note.
The last Sunday of the month is quickly approaching us and you know what that means, it’s time again for the Free Keene Food Drive.
Last month we managed to collect just slightly over 300 cans & assorted food for the Community Kitchen in Keene.
Let’s see if we can break 350 cans this time around!
Join us this Sunday, at Vendetta 43 Central Square in Keene to help feed the hungry.

Thank you to all that contributed to the Free State Food Drive yesterday over at Vendetta. We managed to collect 197 items of food, far exceeding my goal of 150!
That brings the grand total up to 301 items of food donated to community kitchen.
You can check out some pictures here.
Come out join us on May 26th For Social Sunday and another Free Sate Food Drive.
