In looking forward to this fall’s local elections, we all likely know how important financial planning is for Granby’s fiscal health. For the Board of Finance, I’d like to recommend Jim Lofink to voters as a thoughtful, experienced Granby policy leader who has consistently demonstrated his value in promoting intelligent and informed public discourse—exactly what we need to balance tax burdens with service needs.

In June, Granby lost a town treasure.

Carol Laun was the curator and archivist for the Salmon Brook Historical Society, a volunteer position she had held for decades. Although Carol was from Milwaukee, she took on the role of preserving Granby’s history as if her roots were here.
