As you all probably know, I get most of the fodder for my mailbag and calendar items from various newsletters and emails I get from agencies around town. And I DO know that many of you rely on my blog to find out what’s happening in town.
BUT I don’t hear about everything (I was whining about that a few days ago, I think), and even if I do, sometimes the information doesn’t make it into my blog in a timely manner. So I recommend that if you want to get event news straight from the source, you should also sign up for things like the Town of Webster newsletter, the Webster Public Library newsletter and the Webster Recreation Center newsletter, all of which will be emailed to your inbox every month.
And just last week, I was thrilled to see a new source of information added to that feed: the very excellent Village of Webster newsletter.
The Village has been publishing this newsletter now for almost a year. It’s called The View From Main Street and it’s always been available online, but I keep forgetting to go to the Village website to check it out. So I was very happy to see that it will come to ME every week.
And this newsletter is very excellent, as I said. It’s always packed with information about events and new businesses. This week, for example, there are features about the Fireman’s Carnival; three new businesses which have opened or will open soon; a nice piece about Village Trustee Jude Lancy, who will soon be moving out of town to explore new adventures (and play with her grandkids); another nice piece about former Webster Village Band Director Tom Indiano, who passed away in June; plus news from the Webster Museum and about the Jazz Fest coming up in August.
Check it out for yourself. Here’s the link to the newsletter, and this link will take you to past editions. If you’d like to sign up to get the newsletter in your email box monthly, click here.
