The Message for the Week relinquishes any responsibility for the consequences of this letter. We reserve the right to refuse any letter.
As many may have read in last week's issue of The Message, long time editor Paul Larochelle has left the paper to take a full time position in law enforcement, a profession he'd been in many years ago. Paul will be sorely missed here, as he has been such an integral part of The Message for the last two decades. Several e-mails and phone calls over the past week have let us know that many of our readers will miss Paul also.
New board members Cynthia Martin and Erin Boxer have something in common, their first brush with the programs of the Springfield Area Parent Child Center left them genuinely impressed and confident in knowing that the organization was something they wanted to support.
The awards and accolades for Springfield High School senior student athlete Grant White continue to roll in.
Despite a tough year for his Bellows Falls Union High School football team, it must have been a nice ending to the season for coach Bob Lockerby, who not only coached the South squad to a win in the eighth annual Vermont Senior Bowl, (see story and photos below), but he also got to coach his son David in football for the first time, who is a senior defensive back for nearby Vermont Academy in Saxtons River.
Nutcracker returns to COH
This holiday tradition fills the opera house with many area families. Some area families create childhood memories at Nutcracker parties in their homes before or after the ballet. One family gets dressed in their best and enjoys Nutcracker Suite tea with cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off, of course, and each child receives an ornament for the tree and after the party pictures are taken in front of their tree. Bring your cameras and have your picture taken at Claremont Opera House after the show with Clara, The Sugar Plum Fairy, The Cavalier, and the Snow Queen and create your own holiday tradition.
