A hodgepodge for your Friday

Hello and Happy Friday!

Just a reminder that there is an overnight (2AM-8AM) street parking ban in effect until April 1.

As testing and finals season near, I also wanted to highlight a homework club hosted by one of our residents. Kim Holt offers homework help and a casual but structured place for (mostly) elementary and middle school students to hang out. Students have a chance to complete the day’s homework, get some extra help, and gain some enrichment. The club is held after school on Wednesdays, and it is free, though donations do help keep the program going.

You can get more information by emailing Kim.

Finally, the Woburn Public Library (offered jointly with Burlington) will be offering a 10-week citizenship preparation course from March 4-May 6 (Saturdays) from 10-12. For more information and to register, click here.
