Three campers from Norwood Recreation's summer day camp, held at Father Mcaleer (Father Mac) Playground in Norwood, were transported to area hospitals with minor injuries on Thursday, June 11th, after a tree branch fell from a tree at the site, said the Town of Norwood in a press release later that day.
One child's lower extremity was trapped below the fallen tree limb, and Norwood firefighters worked to free the trapped child, according to Norwood Firefighters Local 1631 in a Facebook post. The child was transported to a local hospital. Westwood Fire Department personnel assisted in treating the other students, says the post.
Of the injuries sustained to "several campers," the most serious injury appears to be an ankle injury, said the Town of Norwood.
"Out of an abundance of caution, the Public Works Department will be conducting additional trimming and branch removal beyond their routine maintenance at the site," states the town in its press release.
Light freezing rain, with a high of 35 and low of 20 degrees. Sunny during the morning, overcast for the afternoon, clear for the evening,
To the Board (or what's left of it), this continuous behavior of placating the residents is insulting.
Please don't blame Joe. Everyone knows it has always been 2 against 1 since day one of his (elected) term.
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.
