October 24, 2022 by Bob Brown Leave a Comment

The Natick Community-Senior Center has made available a video from this past week’s Finding Natick Info session, which includes a whirlwind tour of where to get town information, from news to events to social services.

Speakers included Town Moderator Frank Foss, Town Clerk Diane Packer, Natick CSC Social Worker Debbie Budd, Natick Cultural Center’s Athena Pandolf, and myself, on behalf of Natick Report. The Community-Senior Center’s Sharon Kirby moderated.

We appreciated the invitation, and the questions from those who attended live. If interested in catching up, here’s the recording.

Golden Tones chorus back in action

August 8, 2022 by Bob Brown Leave a Comment

The Golden Tones chorus, a singing group consisting of dozens of retirees from about a dozen area communities, will be performing an outdoor sing-along at the Natick Farmers’ Market on Natick Common this Saturday, Aug. 13 from 12:15-12:45pm.

This will be the group’s first public performance since March of 2020.

That concert will be followed by an indoors open rehearsal on Tuesday, Aug. 16 from 11am-12:30pm (call 508 318 6318 for details).

The Natick-based group, which has been around since 1988, has no auditions and invites anyone who wants to sing with the group to do so. No choir experience or ability to read music needed.

Golden Tones performs throughout the MetroWest area.
