Lamont regains ‘nuclear free’ status

Weeks after the “Welcome to Lamont” sign was featured in the Washington Post and the Gazette, the town’s iconic “Nuclear Free Zone” addendum was put back on the sign post. Mayor Steve Lacey informed the Gazette of the sign’s return Monday morning. The sign was hung back beneath the town’s unique “Welcome to Lamont” sign and its hash-mark population count. The Welcome sign was featured last month in the Travel section of the Washington Post after Judy Dugger, an attorney from Fairfax, Va., with ties to Lamont, submitted a picture.
