    Back to School Supplies: If you have kids in one of our town's elementary schools or at ASFMS, chances are you'll need to stock up on school supplies before summer ends. Here at Coventry Patch, I'm compiling lists of required and suggested supplies from Coventry teachers just in case your copy at home goes missing, but I could use your help! If you've received your child's supply list, feel free to email a copy to lauren.costa@patch.com or even send a picture message of the list with your phone to (401) 369.1676 so that I can share it on Patch. Thanks so much in advance!

    Community Garden Help: The Coventry Community Garden, organized and overseen by longtime resident Gail Tatangelo, is in great need of volunteers to assist with planting, weeding, watering and harvesting through the summer months. If you're interested in volunteering time to the garden that provides healthy food to Coventry residents in need, email Gail at gail660@verizon.net. Feel free to stop by the garden across from Town Hall to lend a hand!
