Neighborhood Yard Sale – Saturday, May 30, 2015 (8am – 1pm).
Several homes in the neighborhood of Flagg Road and Deerfoot Road will be holding yard sales this Saturday. There will be baby gear, toys, household items, and small furniture.
I love my town but am wondering when they are going to fix the roads?? I’ve hit some bad potholes recently.
I recently saw a few guys painting lines around trouble areas on roads all around town. I think in the near future we’ll see the roads repaired.
Looks like soon, at least for some. There are spray painted lines around a number of the worse spots on 85 and a few other roads. I’m assuming those lines are indicators that they are going to replace those spots soon. Not sure how extensive the repairs are across town, but it does look like they are starting the process.
The Algonquin Regional High School girl’s lacrosse teams will hold a car wash and bake sale from 9am – 2:30pm this Saturday at the Transfer Station.
The girls are raising money to pay the $2,600 it cost to rent indoor practice space used for their tryouts this spring.
Thank you!

Does anyone know the laws concerning dogs on leashes in Southborough. There is this beautiful big black dog around Middle Road that is always off it’s leash.
I took this from the Animal Control Officer website:
LEASH LAW
All dogs in Southborough must be in control at all times. All dogs found to be in violation and picked up by the Animal Control Officer will be subject to a fine of $15.00 plus boarding fees.
