SOUTH NEWFANE — I've been in Newfane for 32 years, and this election has me very excited. Ann Golob, Katy Johnson-Aplin, and Jeff Chevalier will be a strong and very human team on the Selectboard.

Vote on Tuesday, March 1 for positive energy in Newfane!

Award-winning singer-songwriter Jason Anderson made his South Newfane debut to a packed room in 2018. Two years later, the stage was set for an encore performance when the world shut down. As COVID-19 ground life - and Anderson's touring plans - to a halt in 2020, he decamped to the internet, launching a series of online performances that allowed him to stay connected to family, friends, and fans around the world throughout the dark days of the pandemic.
