Newtown Community Center has announced plans for the return of Spooktacular Drive-Thru, an event that was very popular during its inaugural offering in 2020.
Ahead of the removal of a sugar maple within the patio of C.H. Booth Library, readers are invited this week to pick up a craft kit to celebrate all that the tree has provided.
While the Newtown Ecumenical Workcamp Servants (NEWS) stayed close to home for another summer, the group is again ready to begin planning for a road trip.

"Democrats are for defending women, youth and our most vulnerable"
If this is the case, why is it so hard to then define what a woman is for Democrats? Democrats can't define what a woman is but we must have a woman president....ok
Why do Democrats want to have MEN in WOMENS environments? (sports, locker rooms, bathrooms, etc)
Why do Democrats want to masquerade the butchering of young boys and girls by calling it "gender affirming care"
