They are the almost 70 members of the Mass Fury,a semi- professional football team that for the last four seasons has called Leicester home. It’s a team that has worked its way up the New England Football League divisional ladder, starting in the Maritime (A-level) Conference in 2006. In 2007, the team won the league championship with a perfect 10-0 record. Last year, the Fury moved up to the North Atlantic (AA) Conference. They finished 8-4 and won the division before losing in the playoffs. The 2009 season has the Fury sitting with a 6-1 record (2-0 in preseason and 4-1 in the regular season). Their only loss came Aug. 1 at the hands of the North Shore Generals, 24-0. They have since rebounded to top the Connecticut Gamblers, 20-14 in overtime, and the Hollywood East Outlaws, 36-27. The Fury have not lost a game played in Leicester so far this year. While most of their contests are at Community Field, they had a chance last month to play in Becker College’s Alumni Stadium. That game July 25 came against their rivals, the David Dore photos Leominster Razorbacks, and featured a goal line stand in the The Mass Fury defensive line put on a goal line stop against the Leominster Razorbacks during a game July 25 at Becker College.

AUBURN — A Step Ahead, a childcare center located in Auburn, celebrated a decade of success Saturday, Aug. 22, at North American Martyrs Church with a Family Festival. The attendees of the event were A Step Ahead students past and present and their families. Auburn resident Christine Ganong start- ed the childcare center in 1999 on Pakachoag Street. The center provides care to children six weeks to 6 years of age.

Sarah Dawson enjoys a drink with one of her former A Step Ahead teachers, Cheryl Bermingham of Dudley.

Auburn residents Grace Beauregard, Jillian and her mother Melissa view a book with a collection of photos from the A Step Ahead center over the years.

Teresa A. Franco photos Joey Harris of Leicester at the family festival. Children participate in the various activities and games at the family festival.

Christine Ganong’s first students, Matthew Topo and Quinton Wong at the festival. Attendees of the A Step Ahead family festival play tug of war.

Bulk mailers send- ing fewer items is one reason that figure has fallen, Power said. Customers using online bill paying services, instead of buying stamps to send checks, also accounts for the drop, she said. Individuals are also using e-mail more fre- quently for personal communications, she said. “People don’t write letters as much any- more,” Powers said. Local post office officials at Charlton, Sturbridge and Webster post offices refused to comment on the idea, saying they were not allowed to. Ending Saturday delivery would not be a first for the postal service, In 1957, the Postal Service took that step citing budget constraints, according to the U.S. Postal Service’s Web site. As a result, mail was not delivered to homes Saturday, April 13, but after public outcry, President Dwight Eisenhower signed legislation to boost the post office’s budg- et and restart Saturday delivery. Saturday delivery in 6,091 cities also ended in 1964 to save cash. Service was restored in 1966 with then President Lyndon Johnson pledging to increase funding for the Post Office. Delivery for cities that generated enough postage income to pay for the service was authorized in 1863, according to the U.S. Postal Service’s Web site. A year later, delivery started in 65 cities, and by 1900 it was available in 796 cities. AUGUST 26, 2009 ☎ TOWN-TO-TOWN CLASSIFIEDS ☎ A STONEBRIDGE PRESS PUBLICATION ☎ 1

It Takes a Trip To Spain To Prove How Great the Dodge Journey Really Is

BY KEITH GRIFFIN

Summer’s annual sojourn to Spain has left me with an epiphany: for Dodge to flourish it must become known as the diesel domestic auto line. A week spent with a Dodge Journey with a 2.0- liter common rail diesel engine has left me convinced that Dodge could have a home run on its hands if it brought diesel power to these shores. The primary reason I keep push- ing for diesel are the fuel econo- my numbers. The Dodge Journey is rated in England (the closest comparison I could find) at a com- bined 44.8 mpg. Get it out on the highway and it is rated at 55.4 mpg. This is a vehicle that seats seven people (four adults and three children). Possibly, just possibly, there is one complaint most Americans would have with this engine: it’s not powerful by our avaricious thirst for thrust. The 2.0 CRD is The Dodge Journey is an amazingly versatile crossover vehicle that packs a lot into what seems to be a small package, but really isn’t. rated at 138 horsepower at 4800 rpm and 229 lb. ft. at 1750 rpm.
