We are residents of Danbury and are writing in support of Mario Ratzki’s re-election as State Representative. We need more people like him in our local government. He works hard for the towns he represents. We love that Mario participated in a group to support broadband expansion. Yes, it is a work in progress, and […]
Many thanks to Representative Mario Ratzki for recovering much-needed flood plain money and for the State Route 127 paving upgrades. Re-elect Mario on Tuesday, November 4! Bob and Leslie Irving Salisbury
Last weekend was the 100th Grange Fair Day in Danbury. Mario Ratzki walked in the parade, ran in the bed race, and was probably present at several other events. The next day he came to our Old Home Day church service in South Danbury. Mario has helped us in our broadband expansion efforts, and he […]

2014 showed what it's like without our celebration
There was a TV commercial in the 1970s that said, “You can’t fool Mother Nature.” She fooled us on the Fourth of July 2014. Due to the rains associated with Hurricane Arthur, this year’s parade and outdoor events on the Village Green had to be canceled. Andover is very fortunate to have a rich history […]
On Friday morning, February 28, we woke to our smoke-filled home that started as a chimney fire which unfortunately turned into a three-alarm fire. Andover and 11 other towns responded in the bitter cold, putting their lives on the line going in and out of the house, doing everything possible to put out the fire. […]

This family lost their home and all of their belongings on February 28 due to a fire that originated in a recently-cleaned chimney. […]
