100_3305.JPG Sam and Janelle Samantha is the first of our kids to leave this season, as she's off for a family vacation and then on to school at University of Vermont. We got her to pose with Janelle during her final shift before leaving. 100_3306.JPG Balloon Kid This kid didn't seem too impressed with the ballon animal! 100_3307.JPG Mrs Timmons Team member John's mom (on the right) sat outside talking for so long that we wandered out and told her we either needed to take a photo or charge her rent! 100_3309.JPG Enjoying Myself Mrs. Timmons' friend seemed quite content to just enjoy a quiet evening with some ice cream. 100_3310.JPG Snap! Melissa and Amanda, taking advantage of a lull in the customer traffic to break up some gingersnap cookies for our attempt at Pumpkin Gingersnap ice cream. 100_3312.JPG Cake Lady Maggie has been whipping out ice cream cakes at an amazing pace. (Sometimes, she even needs to get out of bed and be showered by noon to keep up with the demand!) 100_3314.JPG Melissa and Katie Katie is camera shy, but I managed to get her to pose with the shy, withdrawn Melissa! 100_3316.JPG Late Season Additions We lost all of our North Reading team members this season to other opportunities -- all except for Katie that is! So, when we decided to hire a couple more hands to help us through the fall, we had her give us a couple of recommendations. Unfortunately, they're both named Rachel, which causes some confusion! But on the bright side, they're also both very pleasant and seem like wonderful additions to the team! (Katie is on the right...) 100_3317.JPG Hot Maggie! This woman's name is Maggie, and she came all the way from Manchester, NH with her husband Dave after reading about us in Boston Magazine! She's a fitness instructor, and is definitely in great shape! You can check out her website at: maggiefit.com. 100_3318.JPG Maggie and Dave What a Saturday night these two had planned -- a stop at Mad Maggie's, then off to Jordan's Furniture in Reading for the I-Max show! 100_3403.JPG Janelle Janelle is one of our team leads, and as one of the first to head off to college this season, I asked the kids working with her to take a few photos. She's a little shy (NOT!), so we've got a few! 100_3404.JPG Best Scooping Technique Janelle, demonstrating her best scooping technique. 100_3405.JPG Yearbook Photo Janelle got into posing -- this is the yearbook pose! 100_3406.JPG Great Smile Janelle has one of the best smiles on the team, as she demonstrates here. 100_3407.JPG Amanda Amanda is hard at work, scooping up a dish of Coffee Oreo. 100_3409.JPG Serious Janelle It's unusual to get a shot of Janelle with such a serious focus. 100_3412.JPG Frappe Princess Janelle, mugging for the camera while whipping up one of our delicious frappes. 100_3414.JPG Mmmmmmm! These three look like they can't wait to dig into these delicious dishes. 100_3416.JPG Pink and Stink Maggie made this cake up for team member Ashley, who had it made up as a joke for a couple of friends of hers. 100_3418.JPG Sun Burger's Gary Sundberg, of Sun Burgers Snack Shack, Grand Isle, VT. I took a day off to drive up and visit with him and his wife Patty on this day. (No, wise guy, that's not Patty, that's the dog!) 100_3419.JPG He Wears It Well! This guy really "gets into" his ice cream! 100_3420.JPG Good Medicine Nothing makes a broken arm feel better than a trip to Mad Maggie's! 100_3430.JPG Great Smiles These two were happy to break out their best grins for our camera crew! 100_3432.JPG Lucky Kelsey! Look at the great cake Kelsey got for her 13th birthday! Someone must love her! 100_3436.JPG Emily Team member Emily, on one of her last shifts before heading off to Smith College. 100_3438.JPG Clown Car! This group drove up in this beautifully preserved car -- I don't know how they all fit! 100_3439.JPG Shy Rachel! New team addition Rachel P. gets a lot of teasing, because she *loves* the least loved job of the rest of the staff -- mopping up! We tried to get her picture while mopping, but she was too camera shy, so we only got a shot of her butt! 100_3444.JPG Team Shot On one of the last summer shifts, I got Charlotte, Melissa, and new team member Rachel S. to get together for a group shot.
