Thanks to Sunny O'Malley for contributing this news to Westwood Minute.
The Aaron Guild Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) will be holding their Annual Garage/Estate Sale on Saturday, April 29 from 9:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. on Barlow Lane in Westwood (the first house on the right on Barlow Lane, just off Route 109). For sale will be household items, jewelry, kitchen utensils, bric-a-brac, toys, books, tools, small furniture, and estate items. Come early for the best selection! For more information on the sale, call Sunny O'Malley at 781-326-7799.
The proceeds will be used to support DAR's patriotic, historic, and educational endeavors, such as the Good Citizen Award given to ten deserving High School Seniors from the area who were chosen as Good Citizens by their classmates and teachers. At graduation in June, each will receive a check from the Aaron Guild Chapter. The Chapter also donates the magazine "American Spirit" to four public libraries in the area: Canton, Norwood, Westwood, and Walpole.
The Aaron Guild Chapter of the DAR is made up of members from the towns of Norwood, Westwood, Walpole, Canton, and Medfield, as well as other nearby communities. The Daughters of the American Revolution are a patriotic service organization, open to any woman over the age of 18, regardless of race, ethnic background, or creed, who can prove direct lineal descent from a soldier, sailor, or patriot rendering material aid to the American Revolution. The Aaron Guild Chapter welcomes new members. Those who are interested in joining can call Sunny O'Malley at the above phone number for more information.
I completely agree. Washington St. also has some terrible patches, especially the handicap ramps. I don’t understand why the DPW is responsible for clearing sidewalks in front of homes and businesses. It seems that those should be the responsibility of the property owner.
The sidewalks on High Rock and Hartford have been pretty treacherous this winter too. I didn't contact DPW about it though.

A true hero, though I'm not sure about the naming of the intersection after him. We already have a school named after him. Is there no one else who dedicated their life to this Town that the intersection could be named in memory of?
Thanks for the comment. Perhaps other candidates for a named intersection might be considered by the Select Board if presented with a petition or similar process as what was used here.
