Lighting Up The Holidays
Every year Larry St. Onge (Operations Supervisor in 902) with his family and neighbors go
to work like Santa’s elves to prepare their
home for the holiday season. Their display of
lights is a destination for many families in
Southeastern Massachusetts and Eastern
Rhode Island and this year was no exception.
But it’s not just about lighting up their home, its about
lighting up the lives of others as well.
Last year Larry’s light display raised a total of over
$2,200. Donating $1,100 to
both Make a Wish and the
local food pantry. The
ECSA matched those donations spreading Christmas
cheer to both.
This years numbers were not in yet but we expect
more of the same - Thousands of visitors and thousands of dollars to worthy causes.
Thank you Larry for making a difference.
Remember, only active members are entitled to the ECSA benefits

vRide From Attleboro - Good Deal
Theresa Iafrate is putting together a new vanpool to QP on first shift.
The van would start in or near Attleboro, have a pick-up point along I95 between Pawtucket and North Providence, and then on to work.
We need a total of 6 people, and at least one of these six would drive
from Attleboro to the pick-up point, where Theresa or others could
swap in to drive the rest of the way down. The program would cost a
little more than $50/week, (taken pre-tax for additional savings), but
you will get a $100 reimbursement each month.
Only the first 6 people will be able to make this deal happen, so
please act quickly if you want to take advantage of a commute that
costs less than $5/day.
If you’re interested, click on the link to find out more information.
