SEMINARS A SUCCESS
As usual, there were a pair of well-attended seminars on racing topics: Friday was on “Chevy Thunder,” the history of Chevrolet’s small-block V-8 engine, introduced in 1955, with the basic architecture still in use today. Panelists included moderator Ray Evernham, racer Dale Earnhardt, Jr., former GM racing head Herb Fishel, NASCAR’s Dr. Eric Warren, and racers David Hobbs, Brian Redman and George Follmer.

The Francestown Transfer Station has reopened its swap shop. The transfer station is also doing away with “summer hours” due to lack of use, and is re-enforcing its checks-only policy, Town Administrator Jamie Pike said Tuesday.
The Swap Shop had closed due to COVID-19 concerns, but is reopening on a 90-day probationary basis with strict guidelines in place, according to a press release from the town. Only two people are allowed in the room at a time, and no electronics, items with broken or missing pieces, liquids, paints, or stains are permitted.

Dublin will continue its Town Meeting tradition next year, after voters resoundingly voted to keep the town’s current format, rather than switch to ballot voting.
In a drive-in Town Meeting at Cricket Hill Farm on Saturday, voters said “no” in a 118-20 vote on an article which would have implemented the voting system known as “SB2,” which allows voters to debate and amend articles at a deliberative session, and then vote on all issues at a later date at the polls. John Morris, who submitted the petition article, said ballot voting allows more people to be involved in the process of town government.
