Excitement Builds for Family Picnic

       Coniglios are eagerly awaiting our first Family Picnic ever to be held at Beaver Island State Park.  The big event, due to Erie County's "fiscal crisis", was moved to Grand Island after many years at Akron Falls Park.

SWAP SHEET


       There are people of all ages in our family, and of course, we sometimes outgrow some of our things.  
       This spot is for anyone who has a toy, a bed, an article of clothing, etc. that may no longer be useful in your immediate family, and you'd like to sell, exchange or simply give it to a cousin who may still get some use out of it.   Tell me about it, and I'll post it here.
