THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, MAy 12, 2023 Page 17 THE SOUNDS | FROM PAGE 16 21; the REZONING OF CLIFTONDALE SQUARE. All residents are welcome to attend and speak if they wish on this very important issue. “Of all the things I have worked on during my time as a Town Meeting Member this Rezoning of Cliftondale Square is the biggest. An overwhelming majority of the residents who live here, including myself, are against it. I got 100 telephone calls against it and only 1 telephone call for it.” Want to “Shout Out” a fellow Saugonian? This is an opportunity for our paper’s readers to single out – in a brief mention – remarkable acts or achievements by Saugus residents or an act of kindness or a nice gesture. Just send an email (mvoge@comcast.net) with a mention in the subject line of “An Extra Shout Out.” No more than a paragraph; anything longer might lend itself to a story and/or a photo. An Earth Day fundraiser Earth Day is actually over. But the Saugus River Watershed Council will be holding an “Earth Day” fundraiser at Prince Pizzeria on May 25, from 4 to 8 p.m.– either in person or takeout. People who want to contribute to causes organized by the environmental group can purchase Prince vouchers, including one for a slice of the Saugus River Watershed at $25. This includes the popular Take ‘n Bake pizza in three-pack boxes. Kindergarten registration information Saugus Public Schools has announced that Kindergarten registration packets for the 2023-24 school year in the Saugus Public Schools are already available.

The screenings will be held on Wednesday, June 7, and Thursday, June 8, and will last about 20 minutes. There is no deadline for registration; however, we ask that students register by May 19 to allow for staff and program planning. Saugus moved to a free, allday kindergarten model for the 2021-21 school year to better prepare students academically, socially and emotionally. A halfday option is not available. Students must be five years old by Aug. 31, 2023, in order to enter kindergarten in the fall of 2023; there are no exceptions. For more information, please contact the VELC at 781-2318166. Seeking Sachem Sports Historical Data If you are knowledgeable about the Saugus High Sachem Boys and Girls sports team prior to 1969, Saugus Public Schools could use your help. The School District is looking for data on Saugus High Sachem Boys and Girls sports teams prior to 1969 that won a conference, regional and/or State Championship. “For example, we need data on the 1966, ‘67 or ‘68 Saugus varsity cross country team that won the State Championship,” Saugus School Committee Member Dennis Gould wrote in a press release this week. “We need the team, the year and what championship they won.
