1. The Framingham Interfaith Clergy Association invited residents to attend the re-scheduled Framingham Coming Together, a community forum tonight from 7-9 p.m. at the Memorial Building.
The free event is “an opportunity to share stories in the community around the violence and loss of life in the tragedies of Ferguson, New York City and around the country.”

The Tour stops at Suburban Athletic Club in Framingham tonight from 6 to 7:30 p.m. The public is invited to attend.
The Turf Tour event will feature a Revolution Academy coach run clinic for children and appearances by select Revolution players and club mascot Slyde.
After the clinic, fans will have the opportunity to meet the players, who will pose for photos and sign autographs. The Battalion – the official “street team” of the Revolution – will be on hand with giveaways. Attendees will have the opportunity to win tickets to the Revs’ home opener on March 21.
