Today in 1919
Seventeen workers in the area die when a large molasses storage tank in Boston’s North End neighborhood bursts, sending a 40-foot wave of molasses surging through the streets at an estimated 35 miles per hour. In all, 21 people died and 150 were injured. The incident is variously known as the Boston Molasses Disaster, the Great Molasses Flood and the Great Boston Molasses Tragedy. Some residents claim that on hot summer days, the area still smells of molasses.

Spring 2016 Golf Tournament
Updated On: Jun 16, 2016

Congratulations to Ed SellersMike Brian, and Al Debelius (New Penn) for their first place win in the Local's bi-annual golf event held Saturday, June 11th, at the Hog Neck Golf Course in Easton, Md.

Teams teed off at 8:30 a.m. in a modified shotgun start format, finishing the 18-hole course at the same time in just under five hours. The weather, though a little windy, cooperated with the golfers; warm sun and cool beverages made for a perfect day on the course. Libations and lunch under the club's shaded outdoor pavilion topped off the day.
