World Cup in Rhode Island: Ghana’s Black Stars wrapped a recovery session at Bryant University after beating Panama 1-0, with the squad set to keep preparing in Rhode Island for the next Group L match vs. England. Local Culture & Community: Providence’s “Tartan Army” moment keeps growing, including the rise of Dawn the Duck—now a local celebrity with sponsors and a big social following—showing up at World Cup events and marches. Environment: RIDOH and DEM lifted the advisory to avoid Worden Pond in South Kingstown after testing showed low algae levels and no toxins following a harmful algae bloom. Public Health: A new study adds to evidence that the shingles vaccine is linked to a lower dementia risk, though researchers still aren’t sure why. Local Government & Planning: New Shoreham’s Planning Board is working through how Rhode Island’s retail cannabis rules translate locally, including where a cannabis establishment could go and what buffers would be required. Utilities: New Shoreham water and sewer budgets for the year starting July 1 include small rate increases, plus planned capital work. Sports (regional): The Newport Bermuda Race is set to start from Fort Adams, with live coverage beginning just after 2 p.m. Bermuda time.
