TAMWORTH — Voters at annual town meeting Wednesday said they don’t want a free Independence Day fireworks show if it has to be on June 27.
The meeting was held at K.A. Brett School. The Tamworth Community Nurse Association gave away free hand sanitizer and both the nurse association and the Cook Memorial Library offered pamphlets about the COVID-19 virus.
