Dawn Kenney
Dawn Kenney at LOMA on March 14
Dawn Kenney and Friends are the featured performers at the next LOMA (Lincoln Open-Mike Acoustic) in the Tarbell Room of the Lincoln Public Library on Monday, March 14 from 7-10 p.m. Dawn brings her love of bluegrass, country, folk and gospel music all woven together to create her own unique genre-defying sound. She has shared the stage at Carnegie Hall with the likes of Sarah McLachlan and Loreena McKennitt and she’s played a showcase in Nashville at the IBMA World of Bluegrass. Her Reverbnation page features some of her songs including One Step Ahead of the Rain.
LOMA is a monthly event. Performers can sign up at the event or email Rich Eilbert at loma3re@gmail.com for a slot. Names of those who signed up by 7:15 are drawn at random. We have a sound system with mikes & instrumental pickups suitable for individuals or small groups.
Conservation Commission seeks members
The Lincoln Conservation Commission seeks volunteers to serve on this seven-member board. Commissioner appointments are made by the Board of Selectmen and the terms are for three years unless the appointment is to fill out a previous commissioner’s term. The time commitment includes an evening meeting every third Wednesday as well as site visits, which are often held on the same day as the meeting and are typically held on weekday mornings. You will also be asked to participate in a Subcommittee or serve as a liaison to another board or organization.
The Conservation Commission’s work is diverse, but much of it is focused on wetlands permitting and open space management. Those with professional skills in reading and understanding construction plans are especially desirable, so a background in fields such as engineering, construction, architecture, or surveying is helpful. Also, those with legal experience or a strong environmental background (such as biology or botany) would help round out the current group of commissioners.
If interested, please submit the Volunteer Application form on the Town of Lincoln website to the Board of Selectmen’s office. Attendance at our meetings prior to appointment is strongly recommended for any interested applicant. See schedules and agendas for upcoming meetings as well as minutes of past meetings on the Conservation Commission web page.
