Yikes! At approximately 7:10 this morning, Lakeville first responders responded to a motor vehicle accident on Highland Road, just before Bedford Street.

“Most importantly, we are grateful that there were no reported injuries. The accident did, however, cause significant damage to the stone wall, which is Town property.

The incident has been documented, and the Town will file the appropriate insurance claim to recover the cost of repairs to maintain our public property.” Lakeville, MA Fire Department

Every September 30th is a very speacial day for the St. Michael School community.

It is "Wear Red for Maddox" day. Maddox was a young SMS student who passed away from childhood cancer and on each September 30th, the school comes together for prayer in memory of Maddox. Then all students enjoy ice cream as a gift from Maddox's mom. What a beautiful way to remember Maddox!
