Attleboro



ATTLEBORO - A close election, anxious candidates and telephones ringing off the hook with people giving numbers and taking numbers combined to create a well-intentioned, but botched effort by the election office to get information out quickly on election night.

The attempt caused one candidate to think he won and another to think she lost.

The opposite was true for at-large city council candidates Mark Cooper and Kim Allard.

To all who volunteered their time, efforts, and services: On Aug. 21, 2009, the Attleboro Police Association held it’s annual Senior Citizens Cookout at the Elk’s Club in Attleboro. Due to the efforts of volunteers comprised of members of the Attleboro Police Association, civilian employees of the Attleboro Police Department, and others, this year’s cookout was a great success.

Thank you to all 23 volunteers, police personnel and civilian alike, who dedicated your time and efforts on one of the hottest days of the year to make this event run smoothly and efficiently. Your combined efforts ensured that all 237 seniors in attendance were served and treated with the utmost care.

ATTLEBORO - Wild and fast-paced hilarity will fill the auditorium at Bishop Feehan High School soon when the school's theater company presents "Rumors" for its fall production, which runs from Friday through Sunday.

The farcical play by Neil Simon has been done at Feehan before with much success, according to longtime theater director Alden Harrison, but presents a challenge this year.

"The challenge this year is that we have a new cast of students that are not as experienced as some of our members in the past," Harrison said. "However they are working extremely hard and grasping and trying to understand their characters."
