(Tribune News Service) After signing an agreement with the town, the USS Groton Sail Foundation on Wednesday presented the town with the funds to purchase state-owned land, near the Groton Public Library and senior center, that is proposed as the future home of a USS Groton Sail memorial. This is an important step in the process of making the Groton Sail Monument a reality, Town Manager John Burt said. I commend current and former members of the Groton Sail Foundation for all their hard work. The addition of the monument to our Senior Center and the Library will create a wonderful entryway to our Town.
