First, hats off to John P. Casey, president, Electric Boat, for reaching a preliminary agreement to purchase Pfizer’s New London complex. This is a win-win move for our region and the State of Connecticut as it will create and retain high paying jobs. Kudos here.

A round of applause to the Capano Family for contributing to our region’s economic development with the grand opening of their new Clinton ShopRite location.  The Capano Family knows how to successfully run grocery stores as witnessed in their New London and Norwich ShopRites.
