Fifth Grade Tree Poster Contest269 viewsOld Hammondtown Elementary School student Cabot Van Keuren, 11, put together an idea so well that his painting for the Mattapoisett Fifth Grade Tree Poster Contest was judged to be the best among the 29 entries that can be seen this week at the Mattapoisett Library. Cabot’s poster, following the 2024 theme of “Healthy Trees, Healthy Towns,” will be entered in the annual statewide contest that was won last year by Old Hammondtown student Emma Lowe.

Tinkhamtown Chapel Christmas Choir Sing-Along269 viewsThe 70th annual Tinkhamtown Chapel Christmas Choir Sing-Along. Smiles and merriment abound in this small but cozy and inviting environment. Not a free pew was seen and all smiled. The chapel was built in 1889 and has been maintained by locals who care deeply for its continued standing and operation. Though I had never been, I felt embraced, comfortable, and at home. Photos by Sam Bishop. December 26, 2024 edition

Barbies263 viewsMany neighbors and friends have been asking about the Barbies. Due to virus concerns, we made a conscious decision not to create the display this year since it draws so many visitors of all ages to congregate near our gate. Instead, the Barbies are observing social-distancing guidelines with masks on, as this photo taken on July 4 illustrates. We hope that the full crew will be out next year.
