Westwood's Select Board has announced and approved dates for two upcoming events of interest to many in town - Westwood Day 2023 and the annual, tradition of a Westwood Little League Parade. Get ready to mark your calendars!
Westwood Day will be held September 23, 2023, rain or shine. Event attendees and organizers have experienced both wet and sunshine -- this year, we'll hope for more of the latter!
The Westwood Little League Parade will be held on Saturday, April 29, 2023. Organization leaders expect the format to the similar to past years, with the addition of a DJ and music. Parade participants will gather at Hanlon School, leaving that location at 9:00 a.m. The parade ends a short distance away at Morrison Field, where there will be a ceremony and activities like a dunk tank. The softball league is also expected to join in the activities at Morrison Field.
Updated 3/11/2023. A typo in the date for the Westwood Little League Parade has been corrected from a "1" to a "2". The correct date is April 29, 2023.
I am in complete support of the refurbishing and reopening of Norwood Hospital. I was working at Saint Elizabeth during this time. When steward took over our HOSPITAL group, Caritas Christie. They decimated not only our hospitals, but also two hospitals in the tiny nation of Malta.
Moderate or heavy snow showers, with a high of 38 and low of 24 degrees. Don't forget your umbrella! Sunny in the morning, ice pellets in the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
Senator Rush is correct re: the ambulatory services. One only has to drive on RTE 109/Westwood to see the number of out of town ambulances going through town at all times of the day. Then they have to get to Boston or Needham.
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.
