More updates from 2010: City of Worcester and the Worcester Animal Rescue League

The September 8, 2010 TV spot produced by NECN/Worcester News Tonight was just one of many media stories generated by New England regional outlets -- print, radio, and TV -- on the topic of a Pitt Bull Dog Ordinance proposed by members of the Worcester City Council, and the WARL's opposition to the initiative. At WARL we posted to our web site many more links to stories published on the subject. It truly was a sizzlin' summer at WARL with Executive Director Allie Simone regularly in the media spotlight, testifying at City Council meetings, and giving tours of the League to interested reporters and city officials. Also, many responsible dog owners turned out in great numbers in support of the League's position. It was a great opportunity to educate about the pitfalls(!) of Breed Specific Legislation, and WARL and it's relatively new director were jettisoned into the public eye like never before.

Culinary Underground School for Home Cooks on New England TV

During last October's Grand Re-Opening at their new Route 9 location, Culinary Underground was visited by NECN/Worcester News Tonight's Katie Daly. Students were thrilled to have their "15 minutes of fame" as you can see here.

Subsequently, The Boston Globe, MetroWest Daily News, Worcester Magazine, The Telegram & Gazette and others were queueing up to talk to the chefs and the students, and hopefully get a little (and literal) taste of what's cookin' at this expanding enterprise.

A little updating from last year, a very productive one!

The Telegram & Gazette covered Rainbow Child Development Center's Girls Night Out once again, and we were so grateful for their support. It was a fun night with new and old friends, with wonderful wares on display and terrific hosts at The Manor to care for us.
