UPTON DAILY 
Hi Jennifer: I really enjoy receiving these updates and look forward to living in Upton later this year. I grew up in Natick and have lived in California since 1979, but am retiring soon and it’s time to move “home” to Massachusetts. Upton seems like a wonderful community and these emails help me understand what’s going on in Upton and the surrounding communities.
Keep up the good work!
Joan
