This Week in Woodbridge

This is the third week that I am writing a This Week in Woodbridge entry. During the past few weeks, my thoughts about this column have been slowly changing. Initially, I was reading through the regularly scheduled events listed on the Woodbridge Town Website, and supplementing it with additional information that I’ve been receiving. Now, I’m putting that information in the
Woodbridge Citizen Calendar. I’m also reading through the Woodbridge Town Library Calendar. People with other information about what is happening around Woodbridge are encouraged to send information to editor at woodbridgecitizen.com. This column will continue to evolve as more information becomes available.

On Sunday evening, Ridgefield First Selectman and possible Gubernatorial candidate Rudy Marconi will be the guest on Woodbridge Resident Fiona Hynes' Internet base radio show. In previous shows, Fiona has interviewed former Stamford Mayor and possible Gubernatorial candidate Dan Malloy, and in 2008, State Representative Candidate Marc Garofalo. Additional candidates and elected officials are being lined up for future shows and candidates and elected officials are encouraged to contact Fiona’s parents to schedule an appearance.

Monday, the library, the schools, and town offices are closed in observance of Martin Luther King Day. Residents are encouraged to find ways of participating in a day of service. In the evening there will be a benefit concern for relief efforts in Haiti at Woolsey Hall on the Yale Campus in New Haven.

Tuesday there will be no school at Beecher Road as the teachers participate in teacher workshops. However, there will be arts, crafts and stories for children four years and older at the town Library. In the evening, there will be a panel on getting organized at the town Library. The Woodbridge Board of Education will hold its monthly meeting and the GATA subcommittee of the Cable Area Council 2 will hold its monthly meeting.

Wednesday there will be events for toddlers at the library during the day, and a career networking meeting at the library in the evening.

Thursday there will be a music program for pre-schoolers at the library in the morning and a book discussion about Jane Eyre in the evening. The Woodbridge Board of Selectmen’s Investment Sub-Committee Meeting will meet at town hall at 5 PM, followed by the Board of Finance at 6 PM and the Conservation Commission at 7 PM.
