Town Tree Lighting Celebrated (virtually) Tuesday Night
Through a Facebook Live Video Feed, the Town’s tree was lit by the Board of Selectmen on the steps of Town Hall Tuesday night. First Selectman Jim Marpe addressed the online crowd: “It’s disappointing that we don’t have hot chocolate with a lot of kids, and the [Staples High School] Orphenians are not here with us to celebrate - but nevertheless, despite COVID, and all the challenges that we had this year, we still want to continue on with a thing that gives us some happiness and some joy in the holiday season.”
Pizza Night in Westport
Outpost Pizza, 333 Main Street, was busy tonight as owner Joe Dedovic (center) helped manage the flurry of take-out orders. In between deliveries and orders, Dedovic said “all I had to do was turn the key, the community did the rest” when he opened the shop in November. Hours for the father-son-owned pizzeria are Monday-Saturday, 11:00 AM until 10:00 PM.
