ONGOING<br />
• The Webster Fire Department has acquired<br />
a grant to assist the seniors in the community<br />
with updating smoke detectors and carbon<br />
monoxide detectors in their homes. With the<br />
economy as it stands we understand everyone is<br />
having financial difficulties but we feel home<br />
safety should not be compromised. In an effort<br />
to keep the citizens of our community safe the<br />
Webster Fire Department has dedicated the<br />
grant money for this purpose. This program is<br />
provided at no cost to the seniors in the Town of<br />
Webster. It would involve uniformed firemen<br />
with a valid ID coming into your home and<br />
mounting the detectors in the correct locations.<br />
Anyone who feels that this program would be a<br />
benefit to them should contact the Fire<br />
Department Monday through Friday at 508-949-<br />
3875 or a sign up sheet will be available at the<br />
local senior center on School Street.<br />
• Income Tax Preparation available through<br />
an AARP program. Call the center for an<br />
appointment. Circuit Breaker forms also prepared.<br />
• Fuel Assistance (WCAC) — call Worcester at<br />
508-754-1176, ext. 110 for an appointment.<br />
Meals are open to anyone 60 years and up, provided<br />
through the Older American Act for a nominal<br />
amount. The senior center has walkers,<br />
canes, bath chairs, commodes and wheelchairs<br />
for people to use.<br />
