In the April Issue

Welcome to the April edition of the Monterey News, and welcome spring.
This issue begins with a recap of a very special Sock Hop at the Monterey Meeting House. There were so many photos that we will try to link a collection of them here shortly.
On page 2, we welcome back Bonner McAllester’s Wildlife Report, and on page 12 her essay (and drawing) concerning ladybugs as they seem to be sneaking into houses all across town.
The library and Knox Gallery, Bidwell House Museum, the Monterey Historical Society, the community center, and the meeting house all share upcoming happenings. The Monterey Native Plants Working Group hosts its Bittersweet Pull and Tree Crawl. There is no shortage of interesting moments ahead for us all.
Big news is the upcoming election for Select Board seat. Inside see candidate statements and letters of support.. As always, thank you for reading the Monterey News.
