Monday Essentials: Bow Hunting Discussion and Puppies Up for Adoption

Welcome to our new post "Monday Essentials" where we bring you five things to know about the week ahead. Here is what's coming up in Burlington: 

1) End of the heat

 Last week's heat wave is finally over. This week we can expect more comfortable temperatures, according to the National Weather Service. Most days this week will have a high temperature near 79 or 80 degrees. There is also a chance of rain and thunderstorms from tonight through Wednesday. 

2)  Bow hunting

Bow hunting for deer in the Landlocked Forest has been approved by the Board of Selectmen but the details on the rules have yet to be ironed out. Join the discussion this Wednesday at 5 p.m. in the Town Hall Annex basement meeting room when the Board of Selectmen subcommittee on the subject, led by Selectman Daniel Grattan, meets to continue the dialogue. 

3) Puppies up for adoption
