OCTOBER 2025 CLARION — CLOSING DATE SEPTEMBER 22, 2025

Yes, October issue – the tenth month of a very fast year for me. And, it is time again to send your submissions for the next CLARION — inputs are due for the October issue a week from now, by 5 pm Walpole Time, Monday 22 September. The files will go to the printer shortly thereafter – so do not miss out. With school back in session, and fall activities picking up there should be more to share with you in this issue and the rest of the year. Make sure to visit the CLARION website for contact information, and article and advertising submission details.


Your early submissions help as I start developing the layout well before the closing date. If you have some “news” send it along. I also like to have on-hand material of interest that is not time-sensitive to fill space to round out a pleasing issue. So, if you would “like to be in print” and have something to write and share (images as well), send along for possible inclusion space permitting. Please do remember, it is the advertisers in each issue that make this community publication possible, so please support and thank them.


If you have any questions, or interest in placing an advertisement, reaching over 1900 Walpole, North Walpole and Drewsville addresses, I welcome your inquiries, so please do get in touch with me. Advertising information and contact information is on the CLARION website.


Thank you, RAY BOAS, Publisher

ZONING BOARD MEETING WEDNESDAY 16 JULY – PLAN TO ATTEND

On Wednesday July 16, 7:00 pm at Town Hall, the Zoning Board will hold a Public Hearing concerning a neon sign, with changing information at the former Agway Store located at the intersection of Main Street onto Rte 12.  With a new owner, Blue Seal, other new signage has been approved, but Walpole’s sign provision No. 3 states “…oscillating, rotating flashing, neon, or other tubular gas signs are not permitted except when used for public safety purposed by a governmental entity.” The applicant is requesting an exception to this ordinance.

There is concern the neon sign is not only contrary to the current ordinance in our rural community, but it would present a safety issue when drivers are looking at the sign rather than the fact they have to merge from Main Street onto Rte 12.

It is important at a Public Hearing that residents attend and express their views, particularly when an exception to Walpole’s established regulations is requested.

Again, attend the Public Hearing Wednesday July 16, 7:00 pm at Walpole Town Hall.
