During the month of February, the Canton police department hired two new police officers, Mark Selander and Matthew Keepin. Officer Selander served with the Hartford department for twenty years and retired as a Detective before joining the Canton police department. Officer Selander has specialized training in Advanced Counterfeit Identification and Identity Theft Investigation. Mark has an Associate Degree in Criminal Justice from Tunxis Community College, Farmington, CT and lives in Granby, Connecticut. He is currently assigned to the patrol division and is working with the department’s field training officers. Officer Matthew Keepin graduated from Endicott College in Beverly, Massachusetts in 2007 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminal Justice. Officer Keepin has prior work experience as a Youth Counselor while working at the Connecticut Junior Republic School in Litchfield, CT. Matthew lives in Bristol, CT and entered the Connecticut Police Officers and Standards Training Academy in Meriden, CT on February 19, 2010.
Canton Chief of Police John Murphy is very pleased with the addition of two highly qualified officers which will address staffing vacancies within the department.

SAVE COLLINSVILLE’S TREES
Thursday, February 25, 2010 at 7p.m.
Room F Library/Community Center
40 Dyer Avenue
Canton, CT 06019
Collinsville is losing trees. As years pass, the giants we’ve taken for granted along roadsides and in yards are succumbing to disease and becoming brittle with age. Many must come down for public safety reasons. Large limbs have crashed through house roofs, crushed porches and taken down power lines. In the next few years more trees will face the chain saw.
Trees have been an integral part of the village’s charm ever since Samuel Collins planted elms along newly formed streets in the 1840s. A 1926 Collins Company publication boasted of “streets shaded with beautiful trees.” While visiting over a decade ago, Connecticut big tree expert Ed Richardson marveled at Collinsville’s sylvan variety. But Collinsville’s trees are not only beautiful, they support property values, help cool our homes in summer, and provide habitat for birds and other creatures.
The public is invited and encouraged to come and hear Department of Environmental Protection Urban Forester Chris Donnelly talk about how we can sustain Collinsville’s tree population through good planning. He’ll talk about inventories, pruning and planting as well as grant opportunities to help ensure Collinsville’s trees flourish for generations to come.

I just discovered that tomorrow (Saturday Dec. 5th) at 7:30pm Marco Benevento Trio will be playing at Downright art and Music in Collinsville. Opening for Marco Benevento Trio will be a local band called the McLovins.
Marco Benevento Trio is an experimental Jazz group, I’ve included some youtube clips to help give you an idea of their music. I’ve also grabbed a clip of the McLovins. From what I’ve read they are a local High School band that play several covers and their own material. I listened to a few tracks on youtube and they seem worth checking out.
Downright Music and Art is located at 41 Bridge St. Collinsville, CT. It’s near the bridge in Collinsville, near The Crown and Hammer Pub and in the same building as La Salles Market.
