WESTBOROUGH - A chance for the town to purchase a 15.42-acre parcel at 0 Ruggles Street will appear on the fall Town Meeting warrant. During its Sept. 13 meeting, the Select Board voted to execute a purchase-andsales agreement for the site, which is near Fales Elementary School. The site is divided into three parcels.
NORTHBOROUGH - Zach Newbould, who is a 19-year old Northborough native, began humming before he could talk. Now, he is competing on season 22 of “The Voice” under the coaching of Camila Cabello. “I love to write music and to be able to tell people my stories. It [singing] is a great way to show your emotion, rather than speaking a story, that way you can almost like, yell your story out, so people can really feel what you feel,” Newbould said. “I love that the emotion I have can be translated to other people.” Newbould attended Algonquin Regional High School where he participated in the school choir for two years. “I didn’t feel like I could tell a story when I was in choir and harmonizing wasn’t something I was into,” he said.
Newbould belts out “Use Somebody” by Kings of Leon on “The Voice”.
