WEEKEND FUN: Guitarist Performs, Inauguration, Tour of Mt. Auburn Cemetery, New Movie

By |

It is the first weekend of the new year; many of us may be thinking about simply relaxing at home, reading a book, doing a puzzle or catching up on our laundry. But there are some events of note that could get you to put on your coat and step outside. On Friday evening, there is an inauguration party for all our newly elected town representatives. Let’s go celebrate with them! Saturday afternoon, you could go stretch your legs at Mount Auburn Cemetery’s introductory tour. Even if you have walked there before, the tour can be informative. Head to the library on Sunday afternoon to hear a classical guitar performance by Jhon Alvarado. It’s the start of their winter concert series, and it looks great. Finally, the Majestic 7 theater is showing “Marty Supreme” starting Thursday, and it’s getting good reviews. If you want more family friendly films, there are a lot of good ones there now, including “Wicked: For Good,” “Zootopia 2,” “David,” and the “Spongebob” movie. So put your laundry in to wash and then head out on the town. You can dry it later.

JIM’S VIEW: Boy’s Basketball Gets in the Win Column Just Before The New Year

By |

Every team, no matter the sport, wants to get the new season off to a good start. That’s as close to a universal truth as there is in team sports. The Boys Basketball program, perennially tournament-bound and most often among the upper-echelon in D3, has been less than that to start the season, with four losses to Middlesex foes. Tusesday was the last chance in 2025 to record a win, and the Raiders did just that by beating non-league opponent Fenway, 59- 40, at the Victor J. Palladino Gymnasium.
