  • ‘Chet’ the spruce gets a home in Chepachet

    1 week ago | nrinow.news | Dick Martin

    GLOCESTER – Chepachet Village has a new permanent addition: a 10-foot-tall Norway spruce tree planted at the Kent Field Pavilion. Planting and naming of the evergreen came about through a joint effort between the Town Council and the Department of Public Works. “It is suggested that this tree would be a symbolic tree for future generations to enjoy and should be given a name for future reference,” said Council President William Worthy.

  • Planting on Memorial Day: A biweekly excerpt from Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Sanity

    1 week ago | nrinow.news | Dick Martin

    There is something about planting on Memorial Day. It isn’t just that my grandfather never dropped a plant in before that day, but it is something more than that. Any New England farmer worth his salt can tell you that Memorial Day marks the day to start planting. Not one day earlier, as some have discovered in the past the hard way, with things like late frosts and unexpected snowstorms.

Normally, a little over 200 voters turn out for budget referendum questions.

  • Mothers: A weekly excerpt from Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Sanity

    4 weeks ago | nrinow.news | Dick Martin

    Mother’s Day is coming fast. It reminds me how lucky I was to have a good, caring mother who watched out for me all her life. Mothers are like that. Sometimes, of course, that watching out part was a bit of a problem. Not that I did anything bad, but, as boys will, I got into my share of trouble. All part of growing up, I say. Always, it seems, she was keeping an eye on me. Take the time we were at Cook’s Pond, for example. I was all of three or four and not exactly a fish in water.
