Q: So, you get some professional athletes – Bruins and Red Sox. A: Yes. Absolutely. Q: You get any presidents? A: We’ve had the governor in here – no presidents, at least none that I’m aware of. The governor has been in – the Speaker of the House – you know, some of the big politicians [of Massachusetts]. Q: So, this place has been a fixture in the community for 25 years. Anything special you do for the town? A: We do fundraisers for the schools. We help them. We pass out some flyers, and they give them to as many people as they can and get them to come in that night, and they get 15 percent of the money that they bring in. And we do some donations and gift cards and stuff like that for the schools – hockey or basketball – we’ll donate if they are having a fundraiser so they can raffle those off. Q: And I guess you’ve had a number of town residents work here over the years. A: Yes. Q: How many people would you say from Saugus work here right now? A: Probably six or seven. A lot of my kids are from Lynn. They come from Saugus and some are from Revere, Melrose and other communities in the area. Q: Do you have any culinary programs you offer here for kids? A: No. We go to the job fairs when they have them, but no culinary programs. Q: But, over the years, you’ve had a number of Saugus kids work here? A: Oh yeah. Q: How many would you estimate? A: Over 25 years, maybe a couple of hundred. Oh yeah, easily. Q: So, any kid from town who wants to work here, they can come down. A: Yes. If they make good eye contact and they smile, that’s ASKS | SEE PAGE 5 NEW LIONS MEMBERS WELCOMED: Pictured from left to right are Vice President George Meimaris, Lioness Corinne Riley, new Lion Fran Carlino, Past District Governor Jeanine Gentleman, new Lion Alan Thibeault and Lion Gene Decareau.
