Winter Driving Tips Drive according to road conditions. Give more distance between cars, slow down, and allow yourself more travel time. Give extra time and space to stop in bad weather. Do not rely on the estimated time of arrival your GPS gives you. Remember: speed limits are set for ideal conditions; Clear snow and ice from your vehicle. Make sure you clean all windows, mirrors, lights and the roof. Wait for any foggy windows to clear up so your visibility isn't poor. Good visibility keeps yourself and others safe; Check road and weather conditions frequently. Choose the route you'll take ahead of time and check the weather forecast to make sure you know what to expect before you hit the road.
Keep Active This Winter with Boccia! Boccia is an inclusive Paralympic sport that can be played by anyone, with or without a disability. Originally designed for people with severe cerebral palsy, it is now enjoyed by players with a wide variety of disabilities. It's easy for a beginner to pick up quickly, but builds intensity and complexity as players hone their skills. This Town Recreation program runs on Thursdays from January 16 to March 5 Ages 6-9, $40, (5:30pm - 6:15pm) Ages 10-14, $40, (6:30pm - 7:30pm) Ages 18+, $40, (7:30pm - 8:30pm)
