8 seconds of New Boston royalty
BUSY BUSY BUSY—Somebody sure made a splash this evening.
NEW ENGLAND NEWSPAPER & PRESS ASSOCIATION announced its Newspapers of the Year yesterday. Pleased to report that The New Boston Beacon was on the podium in the specialty publication (monthly) category as a Distinguished Newspaper. The Providence (RI) Business News captured the top spot.
NEW BOSTON’S OLDEST CITIZEN, 100-year-old Betty Poltrack, lit the 278-year-old Molly Stark Cannon as today’s third and honorary starter.
MOLLY STARK CANNON was fired three times today. Here’s the second firing. Happy Fourth of July. Be safe and be cautious tonight.
New England Better Newspaper Awards
Some good news to report as New Boston Beacon editor Keith Gentili was recently honored by the New England Newspaper & Press Association. Gentili was named a 2020 Serious Columnist of the Year.
Sounds like spring on McCurdy Road.
