I finally moved to Worcester and I am ready to be social.

I’m looking for groups of people who enjoy hiking, painting (or any art for that matter) video games, fishing, foodies, coffee shops, jazz/other music and trivia.

Looking for any and all recommendations. Looking forward to finally meeting you all :D

Today the team announced their partnership with the Islanders had come to an end. Currently the Blue Jackets, Mammoth, and Sabres are without ECHL teams.

Does anyone know of a place reliably hiring part time

I can only work about 25 hours a week, I can not drive. This is what's stopped me from pretty much everything

I've been applying everywhere I can think of and have had interviews but nothing has called back 💔

Would love recommendations

I have a party at the end of June. I’m looking for a local caterer that isn’t insanely priced. I checked out fireflies in Malboro and thinking maybe them but I’m looking for other options. We were originally gonna go with Miss Teas catering but that was waaaaay too pricey. We’re looking at $20-$30 per person type of place.

Hello I am looking to bike from the union station to work and was wondering what it’s like to bike around Worcester as I am not too familiar with its roads and if there are designated bike lanes. Are there people who usually bike as a form of commute? If so how safe is it and what are some things to keep in mind?
Thank you!

My manager is allowing us to take time out of the workday to volunteer in our communities. I’m planning to volunteer in the afternoon of 6/22, ideally 1pm to 4-5pm. Besides shopping for community fridges and picking up trash in parks, does anyone have suggestions? I’m located in Worcester and looking to keep travel to a minimum so that I can spend as much time volunteering as possible. Thank you!

Hi, anyone have good recommendations with a particular gutter cleaning company? Would love to hear about good experiences.

I'm a Worcester resident who lives in an apartment complex that has a private parking lot. I have reached out to the property management and their ever changing managers several times without response or resolution.

Vehicles keep parking in the access aisle (the hashed area next to accessible parking and at sidewalk ramps) which is not only illegal, it's inconsiderate to the individuals to require those areas be free of obstruction for accessibility. The repeat offenders are the two maintenance vehicles and contractors who come into property. Others are food deliveries, residents "running in real quick," or people moving in/out.

I made a few attempts to be civil and speak directly to drivers...just a "oh hey, that's actually not a parking spot but there are a bunch of them available" with a smile and wave. I've sent emails and photos to management. I've filled out the MA Disability Parking Abuse forms.

There are a number of disabled residents in my building, myself included. I've personally witnessed that this has created loading issues for a resident in a wheelchair. I've had difficulty loading/unloading my service dog into my vehicle, and my partner, who has CP, nearly fell trying to navigate over the curb since he couldn't get to the sidewalk access ramp.

I don't want to be That Person but I'm at my wit's end. Does Worcester PD actually care about this? What if the vehicle is moved by the time they respond? Will the property management company get fined for lack of response?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ICE just busted into Dan’s rockin cafe and took someone as they were ordering.

Is anyone interested in a woosox ticket for tonight that I cannot make? It is row 5, section to the right of home plate. 10 dollars if anyone is interested!
