The Becket Beat is published by a group of Becket residents who see the need for a way to reach out to their neighbors; build community; share resources and events; post town updates; support local businesses and innovative endeavors; and most of all, celebrate the unique character of Becket and its residents. In short, it aims to keep the local public informed and connected.

Anthony, sought advice from Abraham Lincoln, and served as president of the Ohio Women’s Rights Association.
