So rather than cave in, the Town Manager took matters, and a lawn mower in his own hands,” Manoogian wrote. Along with the text was a photo of Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree with a lawn mower cutting the grass. Crabtree said the Town – not WIN Waste Innovations – has been mowing the lawn at Town Hall in recent weeks. When questioned about the criticism, WIN insisted it had nothing to do with the disappearance of the signs from the Town Hall lawn. “WIN Waste sponsored the landscaping at Lawrence A.

But Urban said the company’s ability to contribute to various community projects – including the landscaping project – has been affected. “The Town choosing not to sign the Host Community Agreement (HCA) that was negotiated over 18 months and approved by the Board of Selectmen in April 2023 has already increased the cost of ash disposal for our business, a cost that would have been avoided had we had the HCA in place and continued to safely manage all of the ash onsite as we have for decades,” Urban said. “We strive to operate as ef425r Broadway, Saugus Located adjacent to Kohls Plaza Route 1 South in Saugus at the intersection of Walnut Street We are on MBTA Bus Route 429 781-231-1111 We are a Skating Rink with Bowling Alleys, Arcade and two TV’s where the ball games are always on!

We are eager to discuss with the Town the many ways our company supports the community and how we can continue backing the organizations and causes that benefit from our partnership,” she said. At a recent Finance Committee meeting, Crabtree said it’s not within his purview to sign the HCA approved by selectmen on a narrow 3-2 vote. “So when the state allows it, the Board of Health would have authority looking at site modification,” Crabtree said. The past two state environmental secretaries have said expansion of the ash landfill isn’t possible under the state’s current regulations. Furthermore, the HCA approved by selectmen last year has no leMOWING THE LAWN AT TOWN HALL: A recent photo of Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree cutting grass.

If the state loosens the regulations at the ash landfill and the town manager negotiates an agreement with WIN Waste, Saugus would receive $20 million over the next 20 years while WIN Waste could continue use of the ash landfill, according to the HCA supported by a majority of the selectmen. All things considered, Crabtree said he has no authority to commit to an HCA that assumes that state and local regulations allow expansion of the ash landfill. Urban said WIN continues to sponsor various projects in Saugus. “Meanwhile, this year we have been proud to serve as a major sponsor of the Memorial Day celebration, making a $5,000 donation to Saugus veterans and leading the parade,” Urban said. “We also recently served as the primary sponsor of SBEC’s Unsung Hero celebration once again — a $3,500 investment. This year, WIN Waste has supported school yearbooks, an extracurricular trip for middle schoolers, athletic banners, Saugus baseball and hockey, local softball and baseball leagues, the police department and the fire department. In fact, during the last year alone, WIN Waste has invested more than $300,000 in support of Saugus community needs such as funding to support school and student needs, athletics, the Lions Club, celebrations at the Senior Center, the holiday tree lighting celebration, and, of course, Bear Creek Wildlife Sanctuary. “We hope to continue working together to go beyond the essential waste services we provide and remain a proud partner to our host community in the future.” St. John’s Community Garden enters its fourth year of growing vegetables and relationships By The Rev. John Beach “If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.” - Frances Hodgson Burnett, “The Secret Garden” A reader’s perspective I n the spring of 2021, during the height of Covid, St. John’s Church initiated a community garden. All interested persons were invited to help in the cultivating and nurture of vegetables, which would be given to those who are food-insecure in Saugus. It was one of the few opportunities to gather with townspeople in a common task. It also served as a corrective for the crippling loneliness which was one of the tragic side-effects of the pandemic.

Vogler S augus Public Schools Superintendent Michael Hashem will be a super proud dad tonight when he attends the 153rd Commencement Exercises for Saugus High School. His daughter Rachel, treasurer of the Class of 2024 and a National Honor Society member, will be among the 178 Saugus High students receiving diplomas. The graduation ceremonies get underway at 6 p.m. at Christie Serino Jr. Memorial Stadium. This will mark the second time in three years that a Saugus High graduation has been extra special for Hashem and his family. Two years ago, when he was serving as Saugus High School Principal, Hashem’s daughter Mikayla Chelsea – one of the graduates – sang the National Anthem. She was also a National Honor Society member in that year’s class and headed to the University of Massachusetts Amherst to study Theater.

Its fruitfulness can be observed not merely in the vegetables which are grown, but in the relationships which have been nurtured. We are grateful for the kind and gentle souls from different backgrounds who have contributed to this project. All are warmly invited to help us during this spring/summer. Several of us will be gathering on Friday and Saturday morning, May 31 and June 1, between 9 and 10:30 a.m. We will be planting seedlings at that time. Volunteers are also welcome to come any Friday or Saturday morning for the rest of the summer to help weed and nurture the crops. If these times are difficult, arrangements can be made for other days. When we work together as a community, we discover something life-giving and sacred. We are living in a time when anger, fear and contempt fill our ears and assault our eyes every day. It is important to remind ourselves that we can reclaim our humanity by working in the dirt. Editor’s Note: The Rev. John Beach has been the priest at St. John’s Episcopal Church since May of 2020. In the spring of 2021, he set out on a mission to transform the yard behind the St. John’s Episcopal Church Rectory into a community garden to help fight food insecurity in Saugus. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, his second goal was to provide town residents with an opportunity to become a community in an outdoor setting that provides for physical distancing. This summer will mark the fourth growing season for the garden, which continues to grow relationships in the community.

Vogler N ear the end of last Saturday’s (May 25) Memorial Day observance in Riverside Cemetery, Saugus honored Donna Whittemore-Farris – one of its Gold Star Wives – with the state’s new Medal of Fidelity Award. Whittemore-Farris is the widow of U.S. Army veteran Everett Farris, who served in the Vietnam War from February 1966 to February 1969. Whittemore-Farris blames his death (2010) on exposure to chemicals, which left him paralyzed years after his Vietnam service. He was a decorated veteran who served in the Anti-Tank Company of the 169th Infantry Regiment. 50 “The Medal of Fidelity is among the first medals of its kind presented by the Commonwealth to recognize veterans who have lost their lives as the result of service-connected illness and injuries,” Saugus Veterans Services Officer Paul J. Cancelliere told the crowd during the special presentation. Cancelliere noted that the Gerry D’Ambrosio Attorney-at-Law Is Your Estate in Order?

He was married twice: fi rst to Rose in 1619, and to Barbara in 1623 in the colony. He had no children from the fi rst marriage, then had fi ve children from the second. Standish served as a military leader for the colony. He learned the local Indian language and led several military expeditions against hostile tribes of the area. Standish organized the deployment of the colony’s cannon. In 1627 he was among the Pilgrim leaders who bought out the colony from British investors. In 1628 he helped break up the religious group of Thomas Morton at Merry Mount, because the Pilgrims considered it too unpuritanical. Morton was a businessman in the colony and authored a book, “New English Canaan,” that ridiculed the Pilgrims’ strict, religious lifestyle, and it became the first book banned in America. Morton established the Wollaston Company and he was considered as a sharp tongued Anglican who poked fun of his strictly religious neighbors, and he erected a maypole where his friends danced around. The Puritans cut down the maypole in 1627, arrested Morton and exiled him to the Isle of Shoals.

Morton remained anti-Puritan, and he appears in a novel of Nathanial Hawthorne, “The May-Pole of Merry Mount,” and was later entered into the opera “Merry Mount” in 1934 by Howard Hanson. Standish also served as assistant governor and treasurer of the Plymouth Colony from 1644 to 1649. He left Plymouth for Duxbury in 1631 and remained there until death. In Longfellow’s poem “The Courtship of Myles Standish,” he asked John Alden to propose marriage to Priscilla Mullins, although there is no historical evidence to support the story. He was ostracized for his short stature and encountered much criticism for his quick temper. He was a leader at his time in history, but his actions do not equate to what the current views are. Today he is both honored and vilifi ed for his lifestyle.

Vogler A fter a dog bit her on the right hand at Veterans Park last Saturday morning, Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta didn’t get to walk in this year’s Memorial Day Parade with her fellow selectmen. “Yes, I always walk. I lost so much blood, and I was lightheaded, so I was afraid to walk,” Panetta said in an interview last weekend. “They wanted to rush me to the emergency room by ambulance, but I wanted to participate in the parade. I never missed a Memorial Day parade. It is important to show your respect to the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifi ce for us to have the freedoms that we enjoy today,” she said. Determined to participate in the parade, Panetta got a ride to the staging area at Anna Parker Field on Essex Street instead of going right to the hospital, she received a “ridiculously painful” tetanus shot. Medical staff bandaged up the wound and prescribed some medicines for the pain. Panetta said she doesn’t know how many Memorial Day parades she has marched in over the years, but doesn’t recall ever missing any. “Even when my son was a Boy Scout, I used to march in the parades with him,” she said. “I marched in the parades Clark Moulaison, a studio associate at SaugusTV, and Joe Matterazzo, from the staff of AM radio station WMEX of Quincy, assisted Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta after she was bitten by a dog at last Saturday’s Memorial Day parade.

Members of the Parson Roby Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) had room for her in their fl oat. “I appreciated that the DAR let me sit in the fl oat this year,” Panetta said. Panetta went to Riverside Cemetery for the annual Memorial Day observance after the parade had ended. When Panetta finally did go to the when I was on the School Committee. I marched in all the parades as a selectman. So I really can’t count,” Panetta said. Panetta was greeting people at Veterans Park on Saturday morning at the time of the dog attack. She happened to notice a handsome black lab in the crowd. “The owner was sitting in a foldable chair,” Panetta recalled. “The black lab was by his side. When I walked by, I said ‘what a nice dog.’ He stood up for me to pet him, and when I did go to pet him, he bit me,” she said.

(Photo courtesy of Debra Panetta) By Laura Eisener A large crowd turned out at Town Hall Auditorium last week at the Garden Club Annual Fundraiser to hear author Neal Sanders’ program, “Gardening is Murder.” The talk was a very humorous reminder of the realistic frustrations of gardening, the challenges of finding useful gardening advice on the internet, and a tonguein-cheek account of the development of the garden he and his wife share in Medfield, Mass. Neal and Betty have been well known in the gardening world for decades. The program title was also an allusion to Neal’s “retirement” activity of Writing.

Some observers said they thought Panetta had dropped her cell phone on the sidewalk. “At first, we didn’t know what happened,” said Clark Moulaison, a studio associate at SaugusTV. Panetta stood close to the black lab, holding her hand. Then Moulaison noticed blood spots sprayed on the sidewalk. “All of a sudden, we saw her hand bleeding and we rushed over to try to help. We tried to stop the bleeding,” Moulaison said. Joe Matterazzo, from the staff Club members Kitty Amara, Laura Taglieri and Helen Fahey serve coffee at the Garden Club Fundraiser.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, MAy 31, 2024 Page 9 The Sounds of Saugus By Mark E. Vogler Good morning, Saugus Today’s a special day for 178 seniors who will be graduating from Saugus High School in a ceremony set for 6 p.m. at Christie Serino Jr. Memorial Stadium. I got to spend about two hours this past Wednesday night (May 29) at the school’s annual Scholarship and Academic/Services Awards Night. It’s clear from my observation that the class includes a lot of talented and exceptionally bright students with promising futures ahead of them. I’m looking forward to spending a few more hours late this afternoon and early this evening (Friday, May 31) milling around on the field and trying to get some interesting human interest stories about the Class of 2024. I’ll be searching for twins who are graduating and finding out if somebody has a birthday or a very special story to tell. I also like looking at the creative artwork on a few graduates’ mortar boards. There are always a few interesting stories to tell if you look hard enough. Stay tuned. Good luck and congratulations to the young men and women and their families who are planning for the graduation milestones of their lives. Savor the moment and make the most of your high school or college education. Use it wisely to plan your professional careers.

Volunteers to help serve shortcakes and potential vendors are asked to email the Historical Society president at LDELD@shore.net. This week’s “Shout Outs” It’s always nice to receive multiple nominations from our readers who wish to publicly recognize outstanding contributions by town residents for the betterment of Saugus, or great local achievements. This week we have two from frequent Saugus Advocate contributor Joanie Allbee. In her first one, Joanie heaps high praise on Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta: “Hello Saugus, I’d like to give a shout out! “From beginning to end of the Saugus Memorial Day Parade there was a wounded woman with battle strength determination. She showed Soldier strength dedication in the face of a battle wound. “Onward to completion of the parade was the only option this lioness looked to. With fortitude and focus she crossed the finish line. Only then, she stopped to look at the urgency of her situation at hand. “This lady I speak of is …Debbie Panetta! Wishing health and speedy recovery!” Joanie offered a second Memorial Day “Shout Out” for a deserving Saugonian: “A ‘Shout out’ to Joyce Vecchiarelli for her thoughtful action of passing out water bottles at the Memorial Day Parade. Joyce was set up in front of Rossetti Insurance in Cliftondale Square giving bottles of water to anyone in need.

Vogler) H undreds of spectators enjoyed the sunny and warm spring weather as they gathered along the parade route last Saturday (May 24) for Saugus’ Annual Memorial Day Parade, coordinated by the Saugus Veterans Council with assistance from the Town of Saugus. The parade began at Anna Parker Field, traveled down Essex Street toward Cliftondale Square, down Lincoln Avenue, onto Central Street, to Winter Street and into Riverside Cemetery for the Memorial Day Ceremonies. Dean Pedersen, retired Navy captain from the Chaplain’s Corps, was this year’s keynote speaker. Radio listeners around Greater Boston who were tuned into WMEX 1510 AM out of Quincy got to hear the parade and ceremony at Riverside Cemetery live in what was a fi rst for the parade. Saugus TV Studio Associate John Prudent again prepared a special Memorial Day video capturing Saugus veterans, which was displayed on truck that traveled in the parade. Guy Moley, the man behind local charity car shows, arranged a collection of classic cars in the parade. A new electric trash truck from WIN Waste Innovations – a major sponsor of last Saturday’s (May 25) parade – was near the front of the procession.

Page 12 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, MAy 31, 2024 Saugus Gardens in the Spring Here’s what’s blooming in town this week to make your walks more enjoyable By Laura Eisener I t seems impossible, it’s the first day of June already! While visiting Helen Fahey this week, we got to enjoy the car parade of the 2024 graduates as they went down Central Street. Today is unofficially the first day of summer. I wonder how many graduates’ memories of this day will include the plants blooming in their home garden, the tree they stood under for their graduation photo, the flowers in their bouquet or other details of this big milestone in their lives. Mine include the light purple irises blooming in my mother’s garden, where I stood in my cap and gown while she took my picture before heading off to Stocker Field, where the graduations were then held. Two kinds of irises, the official flower of the Saugus Garden Club, are also in bloom right now. Bearded irises (Iris germanica and hybrids), socalled because of the fuzzy nectar “guide” on the flowers, come in a wide array of colors and may be one solid color or include several colors. The bright white one, “Immortality,” which has five blossoms on it today, may rebloom in late fall. Siberian irises (Iris sibirica) are primarily shades of purple and white, although a pale yellow can also be found, and they have no fuzzy “beards.” The pungent bulbs we might all have in our refrigerator drawer are close relatives to some beautiful flowers that This light purple globe allium is a perfect complement to the catmint in Helen Fahey’s garden. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) are as useful in bouquets as they are in the perennial border. While we often think of onions, garlic, leeks and chives as having a less than delightful smell (unless we are anticipating dinner), there are many ornamental varieties with pleasantly scented blossoms that can play a dramatic role in our gardens. Helen Fahey, a garden club member who lives near Saugus Center, invited me to see the varied blossoms of a collection of alliums, also called ornamental onions, she has blooming in her garden now. Onions are true bulbs, similar to tulips, and these species can add a surprising element to most garden borders with their tall stemmed, often spherical, flower clusters. Black garlic, also called “Black Garlic” is one of several ornamental alliums blooming in Helen Fahey’s garden in the Saugus Center neighborhood. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) broad-leaved leek (Allium nigrum) is an heirloom variety cultivated since at least 1752. It has less of an “oniony” scent to the leaves and stems than most alliums, which has earned it a popular place in bouquets and flower crowns. Like several other ornamental varieties, the flowers actually have a pleasant fragrance. In this species, the flowers are usually white or pale pink, and the clusters are not perfectly spherical. The ovaries at the center of each blossom are noticeably green when in full bloom. “Star of Persia” (Allium christophii) is an intriguing species from the Near East with light purple star-shaped flowers that have a metallic sheen, and a somewhat flattened flower cluster. Quite a few of the ornamental onions have perfectly round clusters of flowers, and, therefore, are known as globe alliums. The largest of these is a hybrid variety, “Globemaster,” with flower clusters up to 10” across. The tallest is an Asian variety, giant allium (Allium giganteum), which may have a stem 6’ tall and a 4-6” flower cluster. Since alliums, like other Peonies and bearded irises are garden favorites blooming all over town this week. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) spring to early summer bulbs, have foliage that becomes dormant a month or so after blooming, they may be most effective grown among other perennials whose foliage helps disguise or distract from the yellowing leaves later on. In Helen’s garden, some of these alliums find a perfect companion in catmint (Nepeta faasenii), which has a small light purple flower on a narrow stem and grayish green leaves at ground level. Cat“Star of Persia” allium has an intriguing metallic shine to the starry flowers. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) Among the “flowers” around town are the 2024 graduates – here are some of the graduation garden decorations on Tonya Chadwick’s lawn near the Saugus Iron Works National Historic Site. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) mint is also one of the hardy, rabbit-resistant perennials that blooms the longest over the growing season. Since most neighborhoods in Saugus have a large rabbit population, it is worth noting that rabbits, deer, woodchucks and other herbivores usually don’t care for onion family members. Members of this family are toxic to dogs, cats and horses, so they should be kept out of reach of pets. Editor’s Note: Laura Eisener is a landscape design consultant who helps homeowners with landscape design, plant selection and placement of trees and shrubs, as well as perennials. She is a member of the Saugus Garden Club and offered to write a series of articles about “what’s blooming in town” shortly after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. She was inspired after seeing so many people taking up walking.

I usually do a Google search on a symptom, drug or health condition when I want to research something, but with so much information out there I’m not sure what I can trust. Skeptical Sal Dear Sal, You’re wise to be skeptical! There’s an overwhelming amount of health advice on the internet today and it can be hard to tell what’s credible. To help you sort through the online clutter and locate reliable, trustworthy health information, here are a few tips to follow, along with some top-rated sites you can turn to with confi dence. Savvy Searching First, know that Google or Bing is not always the best place to start a search. You’ll increase your odds of finding reliable health information if you begin with websites run by government agencies (identifi ed by URLs ending in .gov), medical associations (often .org) or academic institutions (.edu). Commercial websites (usually ending in .com), such as drug or insurance companies who may be trying to sell you their products, are usually not the most trustworthy options. To fi nd out who’s sponsoring a site and where the information came from, click on the “About Us” tab on the site’s home page. Also note that good health and medical information changes all the time so check the date that information was published to make sure it’s current. Some other areas you need be wary of include online symptom checkers and artifi - cial intelligence (AI) tools. While symptom checkers do off er potential diagnoses that could fi t your set of symptoms, they are often inaccurate, and tend to err on the side of caution says Ateev Mehrotra, MD, professor of health care policy at Harvard Medical School. AI tools, like ChatGPT, can also be wrong or generate false but scientifi c sounding information. You also need to be cautious about using medical information from social media, online forums or YouTube. Comments in these places may sound authoritative even if the authors have no medical training or expertise. Top Health Sites While there are many excellent websites that provide reliable health and medical information, one of the best all-purpose sites that’s recommended by Consumer Reports for researching symptoms and conditions is MedlinePlus (medlineplus.gov). A service of the National Library of Medicine, the world’s largest medical library, and part of the National Institutes of Health, MedlinePlus provides high-quality, trustworthy health and wellness information that’s easy to understand and free of advertising. Here are a few additional websites, recommended by the Medical Library Association and others, to help you find reliable information on specifi c diseases, conditions and treatments. Cancer: National Cancer Institute (cancer.gov), American Cancer Society (cancer.org) and National Comprehensive Cancer Network (nccn.org). Heart disease: American Heart Association (americanheart.org), National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (nhlbi.nih.gov). Diabetes: American Diabetes Association (diabetes.org). Alzheimer’s disease: Alzheimer’s Association (alz.org) and Alzheimers.gov. Public health and vaccines: Center for Disease Control and Prevention (cdc.gov). Alternative medicine: National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (nccih.nih.gov) and the National Institutes of Health’s Offi ce of Dietary Supplements (ods.od.nih.gov). Any research you do online before seeing a doctor, be sure to save or print your fi ndings out on paper, including the site you got your information from, so you can review it together. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book. ior

I was able to visit Kowloon and experience the welcoming and warm atmosphere during a team outing last month.
