In Peace Tracks, high school youth in the United States and other countries collaborate to compose, perform, record, and produce original songs and music videos about issues their generation is facing and the positive change they want to create. Participants develop skills in communication, collaboration, songwriting, video editing, and creating, recording, and mixing music. Each Peace Tracks session culminates in a live-streamed concert featuring the bands’ songs and music videos.

This year's Peace Tracks includes students from Jordan, Morocco, the Palestinian Territories, and the United States. This will be one of many Peace Tracks exchanges with students and countries across the globe. To find out how you can get involved in future sessions email sandra@peacetracks.org.

This is progress and I am glad to see the Select Board moving in the right direction.  However, a majority of voters at last Monday's Special Town Meeting voted to recommend that the Select Board immediately cease its lawsuit against the Westwood Land Trust.
What is the citizen's petition about? I checked the town website, and the only information I could find on town meeting articles was from last year. The public hearing dates for 2026 are posted as February 24-25.
Apparently, you need to submit a public records request through the town's FOIA portal. Â What a shame, since it should have been posted to the town website upon certification of petition signatures.
Westwood Minute has obtained a copy of the petition and has added a short description of it to the article. A copy of the petition is attached below the article.
