First, today's weather:

Sunny and cooler today. High: 67 Low: 50.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Bedford who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Bedford Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top 3 stories today in Bedford:

1. When you visit the Bedford Public Library, venture to the lower level to find new artwork on display. A collection of prints by former Bedford resident and UNH graduate, Philip D. Neugebauer is on display. He is known for his architecture, animal, and plant drawings. (Bedford (NH) Public Library via Facebook)
2. Adam Sandler, affectionately called "The Sandman," is coming home to Manchester in October. Sandler will bring humor and songs to the SHNU Arena as part of a 15 stop North American tour. The star of “Happy Gilmore” and “The Wedding Singer” will perform alongside a surprise guest, at the Saturday, Oct. 22 show. Sandler grew up in Manchester’s North End and graduated from Manchester High School Central in 1984. You can spot him around the Queen City during his hometown visits. Tickets for the show go on sale at noon on Friday. (Subscription/The Union Leader)
   
3. Help clean our beautiful rivers! Volunteer for the 36th Annual River Clean-Up on Friday, Sept. 16 through Sunday, Sept. 18 with OARS, a nonprofit, science-based organization with a mission "to protect, improve and preserve the Assabet, Sudbury and Concord River watersheds for all people and wildlife." OARS relies on the support of volunteers and local businesses to keep the rivers, streams, ponds, and trails in the watershed clean. Sign up here to volunteer. (Lowell Sun)
