Woonsocket Radio News Room

We are happy to announce our first “Just for Kicks” soccer experience program for Woonsocket residents and/or taxpayers only.

 

Covid has managed to take a lot away from our kids and while a full program wasn’t able to be put together by the wonderful people of Cracovia Soccer this year (due to the restrictions at the time of the planning phase) they have reported that they will be returning next year!

 

This program is designed to fill a void, in the meantime, and get those with little to no skill hopefully up to par with those who have played before.  We hope to “catch them up” and not have them lose yet another year of fun, skills and development.   We will be working on skills and drills with some experience with scrimmages.  This program will likely be too slow for those with more intermediate/advanced soccer skills. 

 

Space is limited so register soon!

 

As we work to grow our contact lists I ask that you SHARE this email and information with your family, friends, co-workers, clients and residents. 

We rely on word of mouth to continue to make our events/ programs successful and known to everyone, as we simply do not have everyone’s contact email!

 

Lastly, we ask that if you are not following Woonsocket Parks & Recreation on Facebook, that you do so!  We post all of our most current information and updates on there so that we do not inundate you with emails!

 

Be well and hope to see you soon!

Liz 😊

A Park that is Used is Never Abused

 

  
Former President Trump is back in court as his criminal hush money trial continues. Former Michael Cohen associate Gary Farro is now on the stand. This comes after jurors heard testimony from former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker who gave details this week on how he protected Trump from negative stories leading up to the 2016 presidential election. Meanwhile, the judge in the case has said he'll consider four more Trump gag order violations being alleged by the prosecution.       President Biden is willing to debate Donald Trump ahead of the November presidential election. During an interview today with radio host Howard Stern, Biden said he doesn't know when, but that he'd be happy to debate Trump. The comment comes as the Biden campaign has declined to commit to a debate for months.        The Biden administration is making it clear to House Speaker Mike Johnson it's up to state governors to decide if the National Guard should be brought in to combat pro-Palestine protests on college campuses. Johnson called on President Biden to call in the National Guard after visiting Columbia University on Wednesday. The Speaker said "there is an appropriate time for the National Guard" if the protests aren't contained quickly.       The U.S. is calling on China to stop supporting Russia's war on Ukraine. Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing today. Blinken told reporters he raised concerns with Chinese officials over the country's support for Russia's military. He added that Moscow would struggle to sustain its assault on Ukraine without China's backing.       Saturday is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. It's an opportunity for folks to safely dispose of their prescription drugs that are no longer needed. The goal is to keep prescription painkillers from being misused.       The NFL Draft continues tonight with rounds two and three. A record 23 offensive players were taken in the first round yesterday. Top players still on the board include Cooper DeJean, Jer'Zhan Newton, Kool-Aid McKinstry and Ladd McConkey. USC quarterback Caleb Williams was taken with the first overall pick by the Chicago Bears.
