Heard that the Bristol Police Department is almost finished contacting businesses to be included in their 2013 calendar, but if a business has not been contacted and would like to be included, it’s not too late to call the police department at 848-4464.



Heard that it is illegal to leave items outside the Goodwill box in the Harding’s Grocery Store parking lot in Bristol. Items that won’t fit in the box should be taken to a Goodwill Store. Donors receive a receipt for their tax-deductible donation.
