This name came from the herb moss pink, or wild ground phlox, which is one of the earliest widespread flowers of the spring. Other names for this month’s celestial body include the Full Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, and among coastal tribes the Full Fish Moon, because this was the time that the shad swam upstream to spawn.

Park Street Auditorium

Park Street Auditorium

"The Park Street School Auditorium in Springfield, Vermont was built in 1930; the Stock Market had just crashed, Prohibition was in its tenth year, and the word Nazi was the name of an obscure political party in Germany. In the Springfield Reporter, the headlines were about the school's expansion, which included a new auditorium, gym, library, and mezzanine: “Most Modern Building in Vermont is Equipped With Every Device to Increase Efficiency of Students and Staff.” The addition carried a price tag of $465,000, just under $6 million in today's money." - Johanna Sorrentino
