Readers Share the Needs of a Local Nonprofit

Here at Marlborough Patch, we take social media pretty seriously.

The platform is one way we look to interact with you, answer your questions and get to see what's on your mind. Social Media Saturday is a weekly feature where we highlight your questions and thoughts you've shared on Facebook, Twitter and other media throughout the past week.

We'll also point you to some new and interesting pages you may not have known about before.

Highlights of the Week:

Currently, we've got 664 fans liking us on Facebook, which is a great thing. We've also got 494 followers on Twitter, with numbers growing every day. Here are some highlights of what took place this week:

• For the second time in recent weeks, Marlborough nonprofit Furnishing Options . This story was shared on Facebook multiple times throughout the week. Share it again, and hopefully we can get this deserving organization some of the items they need. 

• Just as the , one resident expressed concern over the high land fees involved with owning a trailer home in the city. You can see her comments on our Facebook page. 

• If you follow us on Facebook or Twitter you know that whenever there is breaking news in Marlborough you'll hear about it first through our social media outlets. Such was the case this past Wednesday morning when a multi-car crash backed up traffic on 495 for some time. 

Social Media Page of the Week

While we've featured The Coffee Loft in this spot before, we thought it appropriate once again because Saturday evening the business will continue to host their grand opening exhibition. According to their Facebook page, the first night of the event was a great success.
