Auburn
Saturday: At noon, the American Legion Post and the Chester P. Tuttle Post 279, escorted by the Auburn Police Department., will conduct a salute at all 13 veterans squares in town, starting with the first salute and wreath placement at Tuttle Square.
894 flags were put in the cemeteries on all of the grave markers for their fallen veterans.
There will be no parade and events on Sunday and Monday, said Town Manager Julie Jacobson.
“The parade and other events had been cancelled due to COVID restrictions, so even with the changes announced last week by the state, it was too late to plan any additional events,” Jacobson said.

DOVER Longtime Dover paramedic and firefighter engineer Jennifer Myers said she often thinks back to the lives she was able to save rather than the ones that she could not.
In June 2013, a three-alarm fire was reported in the four-unit building on Cushing Street. A 16-year-old girl called 911 around 2:19 a.m. and reported she was home alone and trapped on the second floor of the burning apartment building. I was working that night, Myers recalled. I drove the engine out of the South End station and quickly arrived on the scene, seeing her house engulfed in flames. That call will stay with me forever because we were able to get her out safely. I still keep in touch with her to this day, and check on her on the anniversary of the fire.
