Minuteman Press offering time capsule kits
Steve Weber, co-owner of Minuteman Press locations in New London and Norwich, has been handing out thousands of free COVID-19 Time Capsule kits to organizations and school districts throughout the region. The idea is to allow children ages 7-13 a chance to record their memories of the pandemic and to keep them occupied with activities and games.
The giveaway is part of the nationwide Minutman Press initiative Bounce Back USA. For information on the local effort, visit the Facebook group BounceBacknewlondon, call (860) 701-9171 or stop into the New London shop at 147 State St.
