Hunger hasn't gone away. Neither can we.
That's the slogan of the annual Interfaith Mini Walk for Hunger which has been going on for over a decade. This year, participants will follow the traditional 3-mile, family-friendly route, beginning at Westwood's Temple Beth David.
Come join others with shared values and walk in solidarity to help those who are food insecure. This event is a fundraiser for Project Bread, an organization seeking to alleviate hunger in Massachusetts and which ensures that our neighbors have the food they need.
Interested in making a difference in the community? Just sign up, then show up and meet other participants at Temple Beth David at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, October 22nd. Register individually or as an organization (visit link or scan below QR code).
Also consider bringing non-perishable items for local food banks. They will be collected at the beginning of Walk Day.

Sunny, with a high of 91 and low of 63 degrees. Sunny in the morning, partly cloudy during the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
This needed to happen 5 years ago. But now the real wrangling begins as MPT will fight to get as much $$$ as they can from the state as possible”just compensation.”
I appreciate all of the work and time that the FS1 Steering Committee and Select Board have put into this process. I've also noticed a big difference in communication around this from the town on Facebook and Westwood Wire. This feels like a much different process than the first time around.
Combing the FS1 vote with the general election makes a ton of sense, and in fact, makes me wonder why not do this will ALL elections instead of holding town elections in April?
Just a reminder that you can e-mail the FS1 Committee at FS1Committee@westwoodma.gov with questions/feedback, etc.
Two different votes for the Project?
First one in October for 'site selection, budget, and funding sources' for a new FS1.
Then, a November vote for 'designing, constructing, equipping, and furnishing' of a new FS1.
Seems repetitive.
