We all get curious about things from time to time.
Like how many full pizzas could we make with all the leftover slices from a given day at pizza shops around Concord? What are the day-to-day duties for Mayor Bouley? And what do people actually think about the Insider?
And those are just a few random things that popped into our heads as we sat down to write this intro to what can only be summed up as the Curiosity Issue.
Throughout the paper we have put together some stories about things that either we have been curious about on our own, news tips we have been given or questions from readers over the last couple months. The best part though is that this is just a sampling of what could have ended up in this issue. There’s only so much space and time in a week.
We had never picked a peach and wanted to know what to look for. Who knew the first full-term youth poet laureate lives in Concord?
As you will soon see, we put together quite a little collection for this issue.
We had never noticed the yellow siren horns strategically placed around town, but did our best to find out what they are. You’re welcome, Jeff.
When Bob Reals told us about how he was letting a family from Bhutan use his front yard for a garden that there would actually be another person two blocks away doing the same thing.
We had seen the sign for WeCycle, but had no idea what it was. If you’re in need of finding info from Concord newspapers during the Civil War era, we’ve got you.
But like we said, there’s a lot more out there for us to learn more about – we even have a few more ideas up our sleeves.
If you’ve seen something in Concord (or Bow) that you’re curious about, shoot us an email to news@theconcordinsider.com with all the details.
If we get enough requests to go along with our own curiosities, we’ll put another issue together in the future. Thanks and keep reading.
