We are counting down to Independence Day but did you know that there is one federal holiday before then? Nope, it's not Flag Day - that's not a federal holiday. It's Juneteenth! Juneteenth is a federal holiday and an important celebration of American freedom. Please check out the excellent opportunities for honoring the holiday that have been organized by the Keene Human Rights Committee.

Keene kicked off its Juneteenth Freedom Day celebration Friday with the unveiling of a self-guided trail that commemorates Black history and the struggle for freedom and equality.

I couldn't be more thrilled to share that the Keene Cheshiremen Chorus are going to be performing at Monadnock 250! They have been singing in the Monadnock area for 75 years, so it's really special to have a piece of Keene's history and culture to celebrate the day. They will be doing a performance on Railroad Square and then roving around Main Street and the downtown area. Thank you to the Cheshiremen for taking part!

All with Life experiences and looking for clarity. Men are welcome any Tuesday evening, 6:30 pm start, at the United Church of Christ, Keene NH - you are invited! https://www.cheshiremen.org/ Do it, for you.
