Stoneham Patch readers agreed that the proposed skating rink and winter carnival should be set up in town during the winter.
Not a single reader opposed town proposals that would bring a skating rink and a winter carnival to Stoneham during the winter.

Fellow reader Tara L concurred, saying: "This would absolutely benefit the town and I hope it moves forward!" Reader Rob Carfagnini wrote in, saying: "I think it's a great idea!

Hey Stoneham—with this "Stick Your Camera Out the Window Art Project," we're hoping to create a mosaic that documents what this storm looks like all over the town of Stoneham. But we need your help. Please take your camera or cellphone, stick it out a window or doorway and take a photo or a video. Then upload it to this article. You can sign in with your Stoneham Patch account or your Facebook account. It's easy, just click the "Add" link below the photos and follow the directions. Be sure to include a caption for your photo that lets others know where the photo was taken. The more specific you are the better, but simply mentioning the roadway in Stoneham is fine too. Let's have some fun with this and see what we can create together. Stay…

In his third year with the Club, he was elected by the Board…
