COA now at old library
The COA’s move to its temporary home at the old library at 7 Fairbank Street is complete. Tuesday hot lunches will be at St. Theresa’s church, and Thursday lunches will be at the old library. The phone number, 978-456-4120, and email address remain the same. Parking at the old library is very limited, so all trips leave from St. Theresa’s parking lot.
