February is American Heart Month, a time when all people—especially women—are encouraged to focus on their cardiovascular health. Anyone can raise awareness about the risks of heart disease and the importance of identifying and managing heart-related health conditions. Here are a couple of websites with information you can use: https://www.cdc.gov/heart-disease/php/heart-month/index.html and on Facebook: Million Hearts®
Do you have any used eyeglasses hanging around? We’ll take them! Please bring them to the Police Station (located in the Public Safety Building at 12 Union St), Market Basket (Pond Street / Rte.126), the VFW (at 311 Pleasant Street), or the Town Hall (Main Street).
