Summarization
Fairfield University has announced they are retiring the #30 jersey of Capalbos' in honor of his memory. Jimmy McGrath was honored at the Fairfield Prep and Notre Dame-Fairfield hockey game where he was remembered fondly. There was a Connecticut Post and Insider CT investigation into Bridgeport's handling or lack thereof open records requests. Horseshoe crabs have been dramatically declining in Connecticut and a bill to prohibit hand-harvesting has been encouraged by the ConnPost. A discussion began between the ConnPost, Connecticut politicians, and public health advocates about the importance of local reporters, the need for CR boxes to help improve air quality, and a bill to cap rental fees for new construction. Finally, calls for comparisons of Connecticut and Florida and their differences were highlighted and Floridians were said to be happier.
