A Glorious Day in Princeton

Sunday, October 5th was a banner day for Princeton. With the sun breaking overhead while much of the surrounding area was covered by clouds, a well-attended and enthusiastic crowd celebrated the preservation of the Four Corners land at the junction of Gates, Old Colony and Thompson Roads. State Representative Lew Evangelidis presented Selectmen Alan Sentkowski and Joe O'Brien a citation from the Commonwealth. Above, Lew congratulates everyone involved on their hard work and perseverance in seeing the project to completion, in spite of many obstacles and set-backs.
The red tractor, with a bed full of children attached, pulls in at Four Corners.
Wachusett Mountain can be clearly seen from the hill at Four Corners where the ceremony was held.
Deb Cary's name could be synonymous with the "driving force" or "engine" behind this project, as a number of speakers pointed out. Lew Evangelidis looks on and listens.
Congressman Jim McGovern, using good humor, is the last speaker to address the crowd on this glorious afternoon.
