To the Editors,
We wholeheartedly support and recommend Jeff Kubick for Groton Dunstable School Committee. Although our own two children have graduated and moved on to higher education and professional life, we still care deeply about our community and feel Jeff would be the best choice. We have...
Dear Editor,
Last weeks editorial in the Groton Herald probably left many folks scratching their heads and while I'm reluctant to get sucked into a flame-throwing contest with the Editor, the tone and misrepresentation of the facts necessitates a response. The matter in question revolved around an...
