There were cupcakes and a receiving line at Granby Town Hall Saturday, to thank State Senator Darrel Aubertine for quickly getting the town a grant to fix up three dangerously deteriorated bridges. The town leaders then took Aubertine on a quickie field trip to show him what the money has bought.
There’s still more to say about this weekend’s clash between state ranked football teams Fulton and New Hartford, and the student journalists at RaidetNet Daily are saying it today. Also, a look at the effort that goes into making high school Open House look good, the weekend’s NFL picks and more.
