Today's riddle: Riddle: David's parents have three sons: Snap, Crackle, and what's the name of the third son? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• CBRE facilitates $17.3 million sale of Stop & Shop at Simsbury Commons (nerej.com) — A key Simsbury Commons anchor just changed hands, with Stop & Shop's long-term lease and recent store investment signaling the grocer plans to stay put on the busy Route 44 corridor. The $17.3 million sale underscores investor confidence in Simsbury's retail market and its draw from affluent Hartford-area communities, while nearby national chains continue to bolster the center's regional pull.
• Avon/St. Paul drops defensive battle against Simsbury, 20-6 (bristolpress.com) — Simsbury's football team ground out a 20–6 win over Avon/St. Paul, sealing the game with key interceptions and two touchdown passes from quarterback Braeden Siano. After a tight first half and several defensive stands, Simsbury's defense clamped down late, and the Trojans now look ahead to hosting Bloomfield on Thursday, October 1, at 6:30 p.m.
• Jill J. Baldwin (gazettenet.com) — Friends and former neighbors in Simsbury are among those mourning Jill Reed Jersey Baldwin, who died September 8 in Hatfield, Massachusetts after a long, brave journey with Parkinson's disease. Remembered for her warmth, creativity, and advocacy, she built deep friendships in Simsbury and Granby, supported Parkinson's patients statewide, and leaves a legacy of family devotion and community service across Connecticut and Massachusetts.
