Op-Ed
OP-ED: What do you want to do with Kearns? What are you willing to pay?
|
We’ve seen only one proposal for using decommissioned Kearns School, an asset owned by the town. Maybe that is because the town has done a poor job of ascertaining Granby residents’ usage preferences.
Op-Ed

Wells Road students support anti-puppy mill bill at the Capitol
|
On March 1, some fifth grade students took their capstone research and knowledge to the Connecticut Legislative Office Building to show support for a bill currently under consideration. Several students who are passionate about eliminating puppy mills, wanted to shed light on both the horrible conditions adult dogs and puppies are forced to live in as well as the inhumane treatment that may result in health problems as they get older.

14th Annual Granby Youth Lacrosse Jamboree is April 28
|
Granby Youth Lacrosse will hold its 14th Annual Bantam Jamboree on Sunday, April 28, at Salmon Brook Park. Teams of third and fourth graders from surrounding towns will compete in games and participate in a free clinic sponsored by the Dodgers and Titans, local club lacrosse teams.
This tournament is run almost exclusively by high school students, giving them community service hours, leadership opportunities and a chance to give back to the youth lacrosse program that they grew up with.
All proceeds from this tournament will go towards scholarships for two graduating HS lacrosse players, as well as charitable organizations.
