Sadly, as I’ve driven through town I’ve noticed a very disturbing trend: Signs supporting candidates (mostly Democrats) are either being thrown to the ground or removed altogether, only to be replaced with ones supporting candidates of other parties. What offends me most isn’t that these acts are illegal and be- ing done in support of candidates desiring to hold public office, but rather that they appear to be intended to suppress choice of governance. As one who values the right to vote freely amongst the highest privileges Americans enjoy, I am disheartened to see such nasty and juvenile behavior by individuals who perhaps fear that their candidates cannot win on their own merits and resort instead to trying to quiet the wonderful op- portunity we have in the upcoming local election.

The evening will include live music, and a wine expert on-hand.

Dessert may be followed by a hard cider to celebrate the harvest season. “This is not your usual wine pairing,” said John. He said it is meant for people to enjoy a Senior Holiday Luncheon Returns Senior citizens residing in the Carmel Central School District are invited to the an- nual Thanksgiving luncheon prepared by the Carmel Central School District’s Food Services Department on Thursday, Nov. 19, at the following times and locations: From 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. at George Fischer Middle School and Matthew Patterson Elemen- tary School; from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Kent Primary School; and from 11:45 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Carmel High School.

Stacy Labriola had everyone singing Halloween songs to get in the festive spirit.
