    Parade celebrates the nation
    Grand Marshals Frank J. Corso and Eric Pimer sit by the reviewing stand after leading the city’s Memorial Day Parade up Campbell Avenue. After a one-year hiatus due to COVID-19, the parade made it back on schedule now that the state is moving toward lifting most of the restrictions imposed during the pandemic. A large crowd lined the 1.5-mile parade route, and some late-season cold and rain left the area just before the march stepped off.

  • Big win!
    Big win!
    The West Haven High School baseball team won the first ever Ray Guarino game to close out the regular season. The Blue Devils topped Hamden, 7-2, to win the game, played to honor Guarino, who played for West Haven under George Hanchette, and coached the Hamden Post 88 American Legion team for seven seasons. Guarino is a well-respected baseball man, who completed his first year as an assistant at the University of Bridgeport. He coached as an assistant at Yale for many years. The 45-year old has been battling cancer for two years, and the game is a collaboration between Hamden and West Haven to show their appreciation for the impact he’s had on the programs.
