Turning lemons into lemon ‘aid’

August 18, 2014 By Larisa Hart, Media Editor

On Friday, August 1, Halifax kids turned lemons into lemon “aid”!  The aid is for Halifax Open Play Space, known to all who love it as “HOPS”.  The kids set up lemonade stands throughout Halifax and turned in their proceeds to the HOPS fund to help purchase new playground equipment.  Friends of HOPS have been enthusiastically fund-raising with canisters at town meeting, Hop for HOPS road race,  lemonade stand at Halifax in Lights, and in September will host a meat raffle, “Chops for HOPS”.  Chairman of the HOPS committee Jonathan Selig says that they have raised almost $50,000 toward their $200,000 goal, and hope to have their thermometer set up soon so townspeople can watch them as they work toward it
