Dudley Charlton Lacrosse Playoffs Lacrosse Continues to Strengthen Our Community A program in its infancy but making a name for itself in short order.  The Dudley Charlton league began 4 years ago with the idea to develop players at a young age so they can continue and excel in high school and college.   A sport non-existent when I was this age but now Massachusetts has the largest National program based on the number of teams.  I did not know much about the sport but decided to participate at the coaching level this year and I have no regrets. Under the tutelage of Craig Pietz and Sue Dacey I have learned a high degree of respect for this dynamic sport. As of this writing the playoff picture has come together for most of the teams.  Shepherd Hill has already played several games while... 05/30/2014

365 Things to do in Worcester County - read the review for "Hotel on Marvin Gardens" in Charlton.  Every actor I know looks forward to reading the review of the play.  And I am no exception.  I relish in seeing my name in the paper with, hopefully good comments attached.  After all, the effort that goes into a production is amazing:  There are months of rehearsals, memorization of lines, development of character, the hunt for props and costumes, tedious Tech week and the opening night Jitters.  When you survive the list of preparation, the proverbial curtains are drawn and the play is out, the project is done.  One can not recreate it if the audience or the critic does not like the final result.  So, there is nothing left to do, but hold your breath and read the review, hoping that the ... 06/21/2011
