A leg of Newry’s rebirth is lost

Sources at Newry are reporting the closing of the Newry General Store and Cafe, and they say the closing was sudden.  The business was to have been a center point for next month’s celebration of Newry community’s 130th year.  Parisa Fitz-Henley says the anniversary celebration will still take place, although some adjustments are necessary.  At a later date, 101.7/WGOG NEWS will have those details.  As for the closing of the store and cafe, a message being conveyed is that the closing is due to unforeseen circumstances and will be in effect for an indeterminate time.
