Several people called the newspaper office on Tuesday wondering just what was going on at the gas station kitty corner from City Hall.
Those “goings on” were the filming of a movie using Burlington as a backdrop.
The movie, and the people behind it are the subject of a front-page story in this week’s Standard Press.
Copies of the newspaper will be available at retail outlets and Thursday and subscribers will receive their copies with Thursday’s mail. Click here to arrange for weekly delivery: SUBSCRIBE
