We have a letter from John Adams about Independence Day celebrations! (OK, so he didn’t actually send the letter to the News Review. It was sent in 1776 to Abigail Adams, his wife.) But see the back page of this week’s issue for a selection of photos from this year’s festivities at Buddy Attick Park. Have a look at the paper here.

Click here to read about a musical production called, “The Cookie Caper”, performed by Greenbelt Creative Kids. There are several more performances at the Community Center, so you haven’t missed it yet.

And congratulations to Fiona O’Brien, a Dora Kennedy 8th grader, who won a place on the USA Gymnastics Acro National Team!  Read all about it!
