Today's riddle: What did one strawberry say to the other strawberry? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. PHOTO GALLERY: Making memories at Marblehead summer camps (marbleheadcurrent.org) — Marblehead kids have been soaking up summer at local camps, from JCC programs to the Y and Children's Island, with everything from foam parties to relay races. A new photo gallery captures the smiles, friendships, and big moments that defined camp life in town this season.
2. Preparing the Evacuation (wanderer.com) — Marblehead gets a brief spotlight this week through Elbridge Gerry, the town's representative in the Continental Congress, who received a hopeful but worried letter from George Washington in August 1776. The piece mainly recounts preparations for the British attack on New York, including evacuation plans, naval skirmishes on the Hudson, and debates over the future national seal.
3. Minot Goaltender Anderson makes NCAA Commitment (nahl.com) — Marblehead's own goaltender Chase Anderson has committed to play NCAA hockey for Williams College, keeping his career in his home state. After a rookie season with the NAHL's Minot Minotauros, he'll join a program coming off its second NCAA Tournament appearance.
4. Paul C. Lakschewitz (wiscassetnewspaper.com) — Marblehead readers will note that Paul Lakschewitz is survived by his niece Emily Lopez and her husband Carlo, who live in Marblehead with their children. His obituary reflects a life rooted in Belmont, a long Hilton career in Los Angeles, and cherished summers in Southport, Maine, surrounded by extended family and close friends.
