Many villages and neighborhoods across the city have “listserves” or Google Groups for linking residents together for talking about everything from neighborhood development projects, to lost dogs, to recommendations for babysitters. They are a great way for neighbors to stay in touch and know what’s happening in the area.
A new one’s recently been set up in Newton Highlands. Anyone can join, so if you’re interested in keeping a tab on what’s going on in the Highlands, go to https://groups.google.com/d/forum/newtonhighlands and sign yourself up.
If you know anyone who would like to join but doesn’t have a Google account, the way to do it is by sending an email to [email protected]
