Check out the current issue of the Senior Scope! There is a great article about our new Veteran’s Wall and Veteran’s coffee hour 🇺🇸❤️

Some walls hold photos. This one holds something harder to name. Our July story visits the new Veterans Wall at the Acushnet Council on Aging and the Tuesday mornings that matter just as much.

With temperatures on the rise, we want to make sure everyone is aware of the cooling center options available in town.

If you or someone you know needs a place to cool down, please take advantage of these resources. Stay safe, stay cool, and remember to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated.

With the heat this week becoming dangerous, The Town of Acushnet has several options to help you stay cool!
