Weston COA Releases Summer Newsletter With July and August Programs

The Council on Aging's July/August newsletter landed Thursday morning, the most substantive town-hall item in an otherwise quiet midsummer news cycle.

TOWN HALL

The town's Council on Aging released its July/August 2026 newsletter, which outlines upcoming programs and services for Weston seniors over the coming two months. Residents can download the full newsletter directly from the town's document center at https://www.westonma.gov/DocumentCenter/View/42773/JulyAugust-2026-COA-Newsletter-PDF.

ELSEWHERE IN THE NEWS

Today's most locally relevant item from Weston Patch is headlined "🌱 Patch AM: Want to hear Weston author Kerri Maher discuss her most personal novel?" The newsletter item points readers to a calendar listing for an event called Music of America's Foundation, where Weston author Kerri Maher is scheduled to appear, per Weston Patch (read it at https://patch.com/massachusetts/weston).

A broader Massachusetts story also surfaced: "Federal Gas Tax Suspension Considered: Here's How Much MA Drivers Would Save," covering how disruptions to oil markets tied to the conflict in Iran are driving pressure to suspend the federal gas tax, which could affect what Weston commuters pay at the pump, per Weston Patch (read it at https://patch.com/massachusetts/newton/2026-july-4-events-guide-newton).

No fresh Weston-specific coverage appeared from the MetroWest Daily News or The Boston Globe in this cycle.
