hearts of kindness return to Town Common
"For the second time, hearts adorn the Franklin Town Common, strung up from tree to tree to celebrate both Valentine’s Day and Random Acts of Kindness Week.
Uxbridge High School adjustment counselor Alison Ciccone saw the positive impact of the project a few years ago and decided last year it was time to bring it to Franklin.
The project has been going on for seven years in Uxbridge, but it’s Franklin’s second year being involved, she said. In Uxbridge they hung over 1,000 hearts, while in Franklin they hung about 500 this year, but the movement is certainly growing, she said."

BFCCPS to perform "No Strings Attached"

When Carl, a teenager, wants to run away from home, he applies for a job with the mysterious Professor Pinecone and his traveling magical marionette puppet show. He quickly discovers, however, that the position comes with all kinds of strings attached. Once he feels the magical jolt in Professor Pinecone’s handshake, he embarks on the audition of his life.
In this play-within-a-play, Carl becomes Pinocchio and improvises his way through the story, meeting some familiar characters — including a cricket with an attitude (“I’m Gonna Bug Ya”), the devious fox and cat (“Easy Money”) and the memorable Blues Fairy (“Blues Fairy Mama”) — as well as some new ones. With the help of this eclectic cast, Carl stumbles upon life’s lessons as he’s forced to make important decisions. After a string of poor choices (which makes his nose grow and ultimately leads him to make a donkey of himself), he finally does something good for a change by saving Geppetto from the mouth of a giant shark."Continue reading the article online (subscription may be required)
