WEST BOYLSTON — Worcester County Sheriff Lew Evangelidis announced he has promoted Lieutenant Steven Foulkrod of Auburn to the rank of Captain. “The Worcester County Sheriff’s Office is pleased to announce the promotion of Lieutenant Steven Foulkrod to the rank of Captain. Captain Foulkrod will immediately begin serving in this important role and leadership position at our correctional facility. All promotions at the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office are based on merit, work ethic and a dedication to duty. Congratulations to Captain Foulkrod as he represents the best in the field of corrections today and will work hard to make us a better department,” said Evangelidis.

Jonathan is Age 5 and 6 starting to like to play sports and has recently tried basketball and soccer. Jonathan is doing very well at his current program, and has made great gains in following directions and communicating his thoughts and feelings. He has built strong relationships with all of the staff and likes to tell them that he loves them. He also gets along well with his peers. He is in a separate classroom with a high teacher-to-student ratio. His teachers say that he is doing “amazing” in this setting and he has started to spend time in a mainstream classroom. Violette is described as a happy child who likes to please the adults in her life. She is engaging and funny but also enjoys playing independently. Her pony and horses eating and playing favorite activity is coloring and drawing, as well as building with blocks and playing with dolls. She also likes to go outside to play at the playground. She especially enjoys playing in the sandbox and at the water table. Violette is currently attending preschool, where she receives extra supports to help her follow directions. Jonathan and Violette are very much looking forward to finding a supportive and patient family where they can live together again. An ideal family structure for them is an experienced two-parent family, either with no other children in the home or with children older than they are. Jonathan and Violette are ready for adoption and visit with their biological parents twice a year. Who Can Adopt? Can you provide the guidance, love and stability that a child needs? If you’re at least 18 years old, have a stable source of income, and room in your heart, you may be a perfect match to adopt a waiting child. Adoptive parents can be single, married, or partnered; experienced or not; renters or homeowners; LGBTQ singles and couples. The process to adopt a child from foster care requires training, interviews, and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you, and if so, to help connect you with a child or sibling group that your family will be a good match for. To learn more about adoption from foster care, call the Massachusetts Adoption Re- source Exchange (MARE) at 617-6273 or visit www.mareinc.org. The sooner you call, the sooner a waiting child will have “a permanent place to call HOME.” This space is provided by:

Saltwater fishing this past week had numerous anglers calling me about some great fishing experiences for stripers, fluke, and seabass. During our discussions, I asked them if they had encountered any bluefish. The answer was just what I expected. No! What has happened to our bluefish pop- ulation? For the past few years I have not caught a single bluefish on my boat.

AUBURN – Sweltering heat suited the 4th of July crowd well as Auburn celebrated Independence Day a couple days early on Sunday. As with previous years, the event sprawled over Pappas Recreation Area, with live music and brief introductory formalities at the bandstand, numerous food and other vendors along the street, and carnival attractions in one of the ball fields. Several candidates running for state and federal office strolled the crowd, as did some petitioners for November ballot questions. But for most of the thousands of people in attendance, it was a day for fun, family, friends, food and, later, fireworks.
