As we move further into 2012, we thought we'd try out a new daily feature, highlighting a single photo highlighting various news and events taking place in Westwood. 

Many, though not all, of the photos from the Photo of the Day series will come straight from our Neighborhood Gallery, to which you can upload your own photos of events, celebrations and scenes from inside the Westwood borders. 

This week marked the end of January 2012, but it also marked the end of a longstanding career for Westwood's Executive Assistant Ellen Hurley, who retired on Wednesday after 25 years of service. 

Be sure to check back each day, Monday through Friday, for a new photo and if you've got photos you'd like to submit, send them our way and we'll be sure to feature them! 

Also be sure to check out the Westwood Patch Neighborhood Gallery and upload photos at any time!
