To the Editor: I write today as a concerned citizen and taxpayer after experiencing the recent deplorable cooperative board annual meetings. I have never before seen such an orchestrated display to quell free speech and open discussion. On each of the “big” topics a line of ...

To the Editor: HPM Insurance would like to congratulate the Milford Fire Department for its hard work in making the residents and businesses of Milford a safer place to live and work. It may seem obvious that any town’s fire department makes a community safer; however, ...
To the Editor: On Saturday, May 3, please join the Milford Improvement Team and the Milford Masons in giving Milford a good outdoor spring cleaning. As the snow banks have receded, trash has reared its ugly head in our beautiful town. We will start the day at Keyes Field at 9 a.m. with ...
To the Editor: Another maple season has ended and while Mother Nature made it a bit difficult with all her snow and freezing temperatures, we made it through. We would like to thank Thom Davies and Pete Smith from Beaver Brook for giving us the unique opportunity to expand our hobby and ...
To the Editor: As we approach the 118th Boston Marathon, I would like to extend a hearty job well done to Stan Vancellette, of Amherst. Stan has not missed a Boston Marathon in 37 years. This is an astonishing feat, as he has run through issues that would have stopped many other runners. ...
To the Editor: Never stop rediscovering! Today, small businesses are struggling and surrounded by economic doom and gloom, and business growth and business survival is critical to our entire nation’s economy. Today as consumers, we import more than we export and job loss from this ...
To the Editor: I am sending along this letter to the editor as Wilton’s oldest living former selectman for several reasons. My deep pride for my community. My wife and I still own property in Wilton, which is not large enough to raise beef cattle but is big enough for the both of ...
To the Editor: Last week, some residents of Wilton, Lyndeborough, Temple, Amherst and Milford took the first steps in the creation of Harwood’s Farm Market, a food cooperative, which will be in Wilton but serve the entire Souhegan community. Energized by the Transition Town Network, ...

To the Editor: This week, seventh grade students at Lurgio were given a survey titled “Search Institute, Profiles of Student Life: Attitudes & Behavior”. This survey was optional and names were not to be included. There were about 158 questions that even my own son ...
To the Editor: How would you react if someone approached your seventh-grader and asked her how many times she’s had “sexual intercourse,” “gone all the way” or “made love”? Any good parent would have them arrested as a ...
To the Editor: I watched with the usual disgust as the Bedford School Board refused to provide answers to parents and taxpayers about why an intrusive, completely inappropriate survey was administered to children as young as 11. Every single person on that school board, as well as the ...
To the Editor: After seeing the “BurmaShave” style signs on the way to the transfer station and knowing one of the 2013 Town Council’s goals was to increase recycling in Bedford, I decided to analyze my home’s waste stream in hopes of encouraging a ...
To the Editor: I thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Rapsis’ “Basically Bedford” column about the good and bad of sidewalks. I was particularly entertained by his musing on litter – the debris that seems to multiply as the snow banks recede and the trash talk ...

To the Editor: I have never written to the local paper until today and knew very little about Common Core until the SAU presentation at the end of January. As I researched Common Core, I couldn’t help but notice online videos of parents across America speaking at school board ...
To the Editor: It is most unfortunate that the Representative Levesque chose to personally attack my husband in her recent letter to the editor. Moreover, it is extremely troubling that she would think it is proper to outrageously assert that my husband, a newly elected co-op school board ...
To the Editor: My name is Niko Martin, and I am a seventh-grade student at Hollis Brookline Middle School in Hollis. I am writing to you because I believe same-sex marriage should be legal in all parts of America. If I couldn’t marry the person I loved, I would feel like an outcast ...
To the Editor: Have you ever driven past the Hollis Primary School and noticed the lovely Tee Pee that is set up every fall? This is a part of the Native American presentation that is an annual event for our first-graders. And it is funded completely by the Hollis Elementary PTA. As a ...
