Corrections

A story in the Friday Gazette about Hospice of Martha’s Vineyard’s 30th anniversary reported incorrectly on the relationship between Island Hospice and the Vineyard Nursing Association. The VNA sometimes provides nursing staff for Island Hospice, but is not affiliated with it.

Each week the folks at Cinema Circus show a series of short films on Wednesday evenings at the Chilmark Community Center. The films begin at 6 p.m. but at 5 p.m. the circus, complete with jugglers, face painters, stilt walkers, food and music, gets underway.

An advanced screening of the films is arranged with a young Island cineaste, plucked from the age bracket of the target audience. In a world with few certainties, the kid critic is the critic to trust.

This Is a Test, Only a Test

The Town of Tisbury will be testing the Emergency Notification System on Thursday, June 30, at 6 p.m. Please be advised that this is only a test of the system and in no way represents an actual emergency. Should there be an actual emergency the message would clearly define the nature of the emergency.

The purpose of the test is to ensure that in the case of an emergency in which there is a need to disseminate critical emergency-related information, the town wants to be certain that the system works as designed.
