Town block party Nov. 19 — The StarBright Civic Collective is planning a block party for town residents to be held Nov. 19 on Colonial Ridge Club beach property on Old Ocean Avenue.
The foundation, which has raised more than $300,000 for safety and other projects in the town, recently added to its donation of a police drone by providing a drone parachute that will protect private property and innocent bystanders were the drone to go into free fall. The organization also provided a hook for the drone that can be used to carry a life ring to a swimmer in distress.
