RESPOND Gala, Firefighters Breast Cancer T-Shirts

1) RESPOND Gala
Somerville's RESPOND, Inc. holds its annual gala tonight. Former Middlesex County District Attorney Gerry Leone will give the keynote address. It's at 6 p.m. at the Hotel Marlowe in Cambridge.

2) Somerville Firefighters T-shirts Support Breast Cancer Causes
Local 76, the Somerville firefighters union, has designed a line of pink T-shirts in support of breast cancer awareness. Firefighters will be wearing them on the job, and they're selling them to the public, too. They cost $25, and proceeds will be donated to Dana-Farber in the name of a firefighter's wife who's currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Call (617) 623-8866 or email tross@somervillelocal76.com if you want a T-shirt.

3) Union Square Leader Opposes Zoning Proposal
If you didn't catch it, Mimi Graney, executive director of Union Square Main Streets, wrote an interesting blog post about a proposed zoning change in the neighborhood that, she says, would diminish the area's burgeoning commercial growth. Read the blog here.
