The Holiday weekend is finally upon us, as is a nice stretch of good weather. As you make your holiday plans, make sure to check out the Lowell Sun and LowellSun.com for all your updates. And hey...if you're going away, make sure to pack the laptop!

Today’s sports section features all the high school action as the athletic seasons wind down. Barry Scanlon plays 10 Questions with Burlington High coach Jim Curtain, who’s been at it since the Eisenhower administration. And Paul Daley looks back at a century of racing at Rockingham Park as the old horse track turns 100-years old.

We’ll keep you posted on any breaking news. If you’re plain bored and just want to chat, we’ll have lots of topics for you to chime in on. Have a great holiday!
