The wife of a man deported to Guatemala earlier this year has created a GoFundMe page for help in relocating her family abroad. The "Reunite the Colindrs Family" page , created last week by former New Fairfield resident Joel Colindrs' wife Samantha, shows the family has raised nearly $9,000 of their $15,000 goal to make the international move.
After a contentious few years on the school board, the candidates running for the six seats up for re-election this November hope the board will have a fresh start. Voters will choose from nine candidates this Election Day to fill the four full-term and two half-term open seats on the nine-member Board of Education.
Much of the attention on the upcoming election has focused on races for U.S. President, Senate, House of Representatives and the state legislature. But when voters head to the polls on Tuesday, many will also be asked to elect voter registrars.
