Daily Five: Chilly Rain, Deck the House and Lifted Hearts

Here's your Daily Five, Montville.

 

1. Expect showers in the morning tapering off to drizzle in the afternoon with a high around 50; not cheery in any way. Then again …

2. Where’s the new Patch I told you about? The new design launch was delayed until sometime well after the holidays. Good call, Patch!

3. The Board of Education meetings scheduled for tonight have both been canceled.

4. You have voted for your favorite decked out holiday house in Montville   as part of Patch’s Deck the House contest. Patch will choose 24 finalists from all our entries across the country. From Dec. 18 to Dec. 27, vote for your favorite and that person could win $100,000 for his or her local school district. All you have to do is visit this page to browse a gallery of the finalists and cast your vote beginning Dec. 18. On Dec. 28, we’ll announce the grand prize winner of our Deck the House contest.

5. As hard as the past few days have been for all of us, we cannot possibly imagine the deep grief the families of the 26 slaughtered at Sandy Hook Elementary School are suffering. Our collective hearts go out to them. But we all have to keep moving. And Christmas is just a week away, so let’s try and lift our hearts and be the best us we can be as a way to honor their memories.
