Preston lost an index finger in a maple
sugar accident in the spring of 1998.
“How’s the little guy gonna
tie his skates with no finger?”
When asked what went wrong, members of
the auxiliary had differing opinions. Warden has been accused
by fellow executive member Martha Burns of gross incompetence
for organizing the bake sale on the same day that the new
Ikea catalogue was sent out. For her part, Burns has been
accused of skimming from the cashbox while nobody was looking.
Meanwhile, both Warden and Burns agree that more money could
have been made if all members of the Auxiliary had refrained
from the traditional “tasting of the goods” before
the sale.
“It’s a dumb tradition,”
said Burns. “It totally eats away at the profits.”
