• Teen Author Self Publishes (wanderer.com) — Somerset residents might recognize 15-year-old Miss Somerset’s Teen, Bree LeFavor, who’s turned her passion for swim safety into a self-published children’s book now available on Amazon. The Old Rochester Regional High School student draws on her own near-drowning and boating scare to teach kids about staying safe at the beach, and she regularly visits local preschools to share her message.
