Dear Editor: On behalf of the entire Canton Knights of Columbus, the scholarship committee would like to thank everyone who attended “Comedy Knight.” We especially want to thank all the performers who so graciously gave their time and talents for our kids. To Chris Bert LeDuc, Frank Santorelli, Kenny Rogerson, Craig Murphy, Lenny Clarke and […]
Dear Editor: I wanted to take a moment to recognize the commitment that the town officials of Canton have to the well being of the town. As many of you know, town meeting can be a very contentious time as boards work hard to present their views of our best course of action as a […]
Dear Editor: On Sunday, May 1, inspired by 5-year-old Mylee Lebowitz, many Canton citizens gathered at 557 Pleasant Street, a location that many natives know for something sweet. A bake sale was held on the front lawn of Cheryl Isaksen’s home to benefit the Canton Food Pantry. I personally made the trip from my school […]

Dear Editor: Once again, I would like to express my family’s and the committee’s sincere thanks and gratitude for all the walkers who came out for the annual walk in memory of my sister. After a long night of rain, wind, thunder and lightning, the sun broke through, allowing for great walking weather (thank you, […]
Dear Editor: I would like to comment on the proposed town meeting article to create a deputy chief position within the police department. It is the position of the selectmen and chief of police that the position exists but is unfilled. I would point out that the position was replaced by two lieutenants; subsequently, a […]
Dear Editor: I am writing to let you know about an amazing event the children and parents of Cheryl’s Home Daycare are having on Sunday, May 1. It is called Cheryl’s Kids Give Back! It will be held at 557 Pleasant Street from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. This exciting idea came from my 5 […]
Dear Editor: On Saturday, February 12, the Luce School CAPT held our “Project Playground” event at the Knights of Columbus. It was an evening filled with good food, music, raffles, and auctions, with all of the proceeds going to benefit the Luce playground fund.
