Your Friday evening update on Salem news
Good evening, Salem.
Like many of you, we’re winding down to spend time with family and friends over the holiday weekend. Our crew will be off Monday for Christmas.
We know your appetite for serious news right now is likely limited, so we’ve put together an eclectic mix of local stories today, including more about aggressive owls, a history of Salem’s former Nativity display, and an update on how St. Joseph’s Catholic Church is celebrating Christmas after a devastating fire earlier this year.
Look for some photos this weekend of the Salem Tuba Holiday tradition from Laura Tesler. And next week, our team will bring you a roundup of our favorite stories of the year.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate, and we hope your final days of 2023 are full of joy.
You can always find our latest reports anytime on our website.
