Get your GIS on

Click Here to check out the site.

That's short for Geographical Information System, and you can get yours on, now that Derry has launched an interactive mapping site.
Take some time to play around with the different layers and options. Find out who lives where, how much their taxes are, where walking paths lead, locate the nearest aquifer.
Then, email Doug Rathburn, Derry's IT Manager, and tell him what you think, or ask him how to make good use of this elaborate mapping system.

Spring cleaning time?
There are alternatives to yard sales.
Try Freecycle/Derry
an online community where you can offer that coffee table you no longer use to a neighbor in need, or find a fish tank to replace the one that just cracked that someone else has just sitting around. 

Although it's membership based, membership is free. There are ground rules, but as long as you're not giving away your first-born male child (or animals) most everything goes.
Go check it out.
