ELECTION | FROM PAGE 1 in two Essex County political races. Incumbent Essex County Clerk of Courts Thomas H. Driscoll Jr., of Swampscott, faces James FX Doherty, of Salem, a former Beverly city councilor-at-large. Driscoll seeks his fi fth six-year term. The Republican ballot for next week’s primary has no candidate listed for the Clerk of Courts offi ce. So voters will have a chance to determine who sits in the clerk’s seat for the next six years. In the race for Registry of Deeds for the Essex Southern District, Eileen R. Duff , a Gloucester resident and current Governor’s Councillor, faces opposition in the Democratic Primary from Joseph Michael Gentleman III, of Peabody. The winner will face Jonathan Edward Ring, of Rockport, who has no opposition in the Republican Primary. John O’Brien retired last December after 47 years at the Southern Essex Registry of Deeds, citing health reasons. Dorothy Hersey, who has worked for 19 years in the Southern Essex Registry Offi ce, was appointed to complete O’Brien’s six-year term. She did not seek the offi ce.

Voters should enter the Taylor Street entrance at 295 Central St. There are seven positions on the ballots for Tuesday’s primary for the Democratic, Republican and Libertarian parties. But the choice of candidates is limited in next week’s election, particularly for the three state legislators who represent Saugus. State Rep. Donald H. Wong (R-Saugus) will not face competition for another two-year term in the Ninth Essex District in the state primary. And nobody is seeking to challenge him in the general election. Wong, who has represented Saugus since 2011, has faced no opposition during the last two (2020 and 2022) elections. State Rep. Jessica Ann Giannino (D-Revere) – whose 16th Suffolk District includes Precincts 3 and 10 in Saugus – also faces no opposition in the primary or the general election this year. She was uncontested in winning re100 Salem Turnpike, Saugus, MA 01906 WINWASTESAUGUS.COM election two years ago. She has been a state representative since 2020. State Sen. Brendan P. Crighton (D-Lynn) also has no opposition. He’s been a state senator since 2018. Barring the emergence of write-in candidates in all three races, Saugus voters can expect to see the three legislators represent them on Beacon Hill for two more years. U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Salem) faces no competition in next month’s primary and has no ballot opposition from Republican candidates in the general election. He has served the Sixth Congressional District since 2015. Terrence W.

As of Aug. 7, there were 22,154 total registered voters in Saugus. That included 4,928 Democrats, 2,110 Republicans, 14,852 unenrolled and 59 Libertarians.

Department of Conservation & Recreation (DCR) to scout potential sites for the placement of an air quality monitoring station in Rumney Marsh Reservation. Crabtree joined Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta, Selectman Michael Serino, some members of the Saugus Board of Health, Town Meeting member Peter Manoogian, Director of Public Health John Fralick and several residents during Aug. 19 site visits in the Rumney Marsh area to tour two possible sites to locate the state-of-the-art air quality monitors.

The walk begins with registration at 9 a.m. followed by the start of the walk at 11 a.m. The release of doves in honor of those living with ALS and those who have lost their courageous to the disease will be held prior to the start of the walk. The Angel Fund for ALS Research is a nonprofit charity dedicated to supporting the ALS research of Dr. Robert Brown, Jr. and his team at UMass Chan Medical School in Worcester. ALS, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, is a progressive, always fatal neuromuscular disease which leads to muscle productive meeting and MassDEP will now proceed to a feasibility phase to determine the location that best meets logistical needs, such as having an electrical source present and suffi cient access. MassDEP is working with the Saugus Board of Health and the town to fi nd a location to install air quality monitors that are designed to measure fi ne particulates and carbon-based emissions. These monitors will provide real-time air quality data that the public can access via MassDEP’s MassAir Online database and the EPA’s Air Now database. MassDEP is responsible for maintaining 24 stations across Massachusetts that collect air quality data. This data is then submitted to the EPA to ensure Massachusetts air quality complies with the regulations of the Clean Air Act. When MassDEP published its 2023 report listing the stations Saugus offi cials are shown meeting with the Mass. Dept. of Environmental Protection (Mass-DEP), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Mass. Department of Conservation & Recreation (DCR) to scout potential sites. where air quality would be monitored for the next year, the agency heard during the report’s comment period from residents in Saugus, Lynn and Revere who suggested establishing a regulatory air monitor station in Saugus. MassDEP is tasked with managing the site in East Saugus. MassDEP’s Air Assessment Branch Deputy Division Director, Sean Dunn, explained that one monitor at the Saugus site would measure fi ne air particulates of 2.5 microns or less and 10 microns or less; the other monitor would measure carbon emissions, such as diesel and wood smoke. MassDEP plans to utilize federal funding from the American Rescue Plan Act to pay for the air quality monitors housed in Saugus. The goal behind the Rumney Marsh site visits was to identify an area that is feasible, acceptable to DCR and representative of public exposure, Dunn explained. He called the Aug. 19 meeting a “great step forward,” adding that he would like to get the air quality monitors installed as quickly as possible – if all goes well with site feasibility determinations. Town Manager Scott Crabtree said he was impressed to see elected and appointed town officials, residents and MassDEP and EPA representatives come together to make signifi cant progress on the siting of air quality monitors in the Rumney Marsh area. “This was a very professional and organized meeting and I think we made some positive headway,” Crabtree said. “The community asked for air quality monitors in Saugus and we are trying to meet that need. We look forward to the Commonwealth getting these monitors up-andrunning that will provide residents with informed data on air quality conditions in our community. It’s always great for the town to collaborate with state and federal agencies for a common goal.” weakness and as it progresses, results in total paralysis and the inability to speak and swallow while the mind and senses remain intact.

Summer Concert Series ends with best showing By Laura Eisener T he last concert of the summer season at Saugus Iron Works featured JumpStreet, a versatile band who played a mix of classic rock, R and B, and Pop, happily taking requests from a large and lively audience. The park service staff counted 190 people in the audience, many of whom had attended most of the concerts over the summer. Among the first songs was JumpStreet Band played to the summer’s largest crowd for the final Wednesday night (Aug. 28) concert at the Saugus Iron Works National Historic Site for the season. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) Neil Young’s “Rockin’ In the Free World.” One from the ’60s, “Walk Away Renée,” by Michael Brown, Bob Calilli and Tony Sansone, got a warm response, as did “To Love Somebody” written by Barry and Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees. The Rolling Stones’ “The Last Time” seemed an appropriate choice for the final summer concert. The Steve Miller Band song “The Joker” brought back many memories. When someone asked for a song by Van Morrison, the band came up with a few, starting with “Domino,” a tribute to R&B artist Fats Domino, and going on with Van Morrison’s “Brown Eyed Girl” before they had wrapped up that set. There was a beautiful sunset, and many flocks of birds flew by overhead. The audience was thrilled by “Whipping Post” written by Greg Allman and played in several versions by The Allman Brothers Band; although they did not do the entire 22 minute version of the song from the double live album “At Fillmore East” it was enthusiastically received by the audience. Finally, the song they chose to end the night was the “Let’s Get Together” written by Chet Powers but made famous by The Youngbloods, which asks us all to “Come on people now, smile on your brother, everybody get together and try to love one another right now.”

They set the mood with their first song, “Peaceful Easy Feeling” written by Jack Tempchin and recorded most famously by the Eagles. In addition to playing some tunes they had chosen ahead of time, the band asked for audience requests and did their best to satisfy everyone. “Two of Us” and “Blackbird” were two Beatles hits, the latter requested by an audience member. Gene and Arlene Decareau, who have been married for 71 years, requested “When I Call Your Name,” written by Vince Gill and Tim DuBois. Gordon Lightfoot’s song “Sundown” got a lot of applause.

Page 12 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, AUGUST 30, 2024 Sixth Annual Cars & Cops Show benefits injured first responders By Tara Vocino A pproximately 250 cars lined the parking lot at Blessed Sacrament Parish on Saturday for the 6th Annual Cars and Cops show. “There are smiles for miles,” event organizer Domenic Montano said. “We’re at capacity.” The car show benefited The Greg Hill Foundation, which helps injured first responders. Each car had a suggested $20 entry fee. Many police departments came, including Princeton, State Police, New York, Methuen, Revere, Peabody, and Maine. Blessed Sacrament Parish donated the lot. Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta, who is a women’s guild member at the parish, said it’s a wonderful cause. “It’s bigger than last year,” Panetta said. Raffles donated to the cause. Larry Slaven won the fire pit as a raffle prize. “I’m excited that I won,” Slaven said. “I will use it in my yard.” Lowell resident Robert St. Hilaire won the scratch ticket and movie basket as a raffle prize. “I came from nothing and want to give back,” Hilaire said. Montano said they haven’t had a final total on the amount raised, as of press time.

There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. $650,000 FOR MICROLOANS TO BUSINESSES (H 4800) House 155-2, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $650,000 (reducing funding from $1.5 million to $850,000) for loans to small businesses. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $650,000 was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary due to the availability of alternative resources,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “This operating funding overlaps with alternative capital funding in the fiscal year 2025 Capital Investment Plan intended to support this purpose. Specifically, capital grants for Community Development Financial Institutions will be utilized to complement this funding in support of small businesses and microbusinesses.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $650,000. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Donald Wong Yes $7.5 MILLION FOR PROGRAMS TO ENCOURAGE STATE COLLEGE GRADUATES TO BECOME PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS (H 4800) House 134-24, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $7.5 million (reBeacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen ducing funding from $10 million to $2.5 million) for programs to encourage graduates of the state’s public colleges to work as public school teachers. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $7.5 million was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “The amount as adjusted here, in combination with the available balance from fiscal year 2024, is sufficient to meet projected demand and result in no reduction to fiscal year 2025 spending for this item.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $7.5 million. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Rep. Donald Wong Yes No $875,000 FOR COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS PROGRAM (H 4800) House 154-4, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of the entire $875,000 for a statewide college and career readiness program implemented by JFYNetWorks, a nonprofit corporation, to provide online instructional curricula to help students meet the Massachusetts state standards at each grade level and reduce learning loss and achievement gaps. The program would also prepare students for required assessments and college placement tests in middle school and high school. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $875,000 was eliminated. “I am vetoing this item because it is not consistent with my House [budget] recommendation,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. (A “Yes” vote is for the $875,000. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Donald Wong Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL MATERNAL HEALTH (H 4999) – Gov. Healey signed into law a maternal health bill that would require certified professional midwives and lactation consultants to be licensed; encourage the creation of more freestanding birth centers; establish a grant program to address maternal mental health and substance use disorder; expand the statewide universal postpartum home visiting program; and mandate that insurers provide coverage for postpartum depression and major depressive disorder screenings for perinatal individuals. “Massachusetts is home to the best health care, but there was work to be done to improve birth options and health equity for families across the state,” said Gov. Healey. “These important expansions in the law will help make it both safer and easier to start and grow a family here in Massachusetts, while making sure that women can make the best health care decisions for themselves.” “Massachusetts is renowned for its world-class hospitals and health care facilities, and this legislation builds on that legacy by prioritizing maternal health care needs and providing expanded childbirth options for the commonwealth’s residents,” said House Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading).“In addition to creating a formal licensing process for certified professional midwives and lactation consultants, this legislation will offer expectant parents access to a wide range of services to ensure a successful pregnancy and childbirth, including universal postpartum home visits and postpartum depression screenings.” “I am proud that this important legislation will take positive steps toward addressing the disparities in maternal healthcare,” said Sen. Patrick O’Connor (R-Weymouth). “Strengthening access to physical and mental health in Massachusetts will provide a more inclusive support system that keeps parents and children healthy as they embark on their new journey. Every single family in our commonwealth deserves high quality care and support. Not only are we safeguarding the health of new families, but also laying a stronger foundation for future generations.” “These investments are part of our commitment across agencies to eliminate disparities in maternal health care that have led to worse outcomes in some communities and for people of color – especially Black birthing people,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Kate Walsh. “We are taking specific steps in designated communities to support the most disproportionately impacted residents and help provide much needed access to equitable perinatal and postpartum care.” EARLY IN-PERSON VOTING IS OPEN FROM SATURDAY, AUGUST 24 THROUGH FRIDAY, AUGUST 30 -Early in-person voting in the upcoming September 3 state primaries kicked off Saturday, August 24 and runs through Friday, August 30. Under Massachusetts law, all cities and towns in Massachusetts are required to offer early voting. Secretary of State Bill Galvin recommends voters check their city or town’s early voting schedule to find out what days and hours they can vote early. “With the primaries being held on the day after Labor Day, some voters may prefer to vote by mail or to vote early, especially if they have children going back to school that day,” Galvin said. “The early voting period gives you the chance to vote on whichever day you prefer, at your convenience.” Voters who applied to vote by mail, but have not yet returned a ballot can still vote in person, if they wish. Those who have already returned their mail-in ballot will be marked off on the voting list and will not be able to vote again. For more information, go to www.VoteInMA.com to find your community’s early voting locations and schedule. $3.75 MILLION TO ADDRESS OPIOID CRISIS - The Healey administration announced $3.75 million in grants to 18 grassroots organizations to help reduce the harm caused by the opioid epidemic in communities disproportionately impacted by overdose deaths. The grants are awarded through the Mosaic Opioid Recovery Partnership, a new grant program designed to support underserved communities and populations that have experienced a high rate of opioid-related overdose deaths. “Too many Massachusetts families have been devastated by the impacts of substance use disorder and we have been doing everything in our power to reduce overdoses and save lives,” said Gov. Healey. “These awards underscore our commitment to equitable access to necessary resources for prevention, recovery and treatment programs in communities disproportionately impacted by the opioid epidemic.” “These grants ensure that opioid settlement funds are invested in community organizations that are working at the grassroots level but face challenges in competing for grant funding,” said Undersecretary of Health Kiame Mahaniah. “We’re hopeful that these diverse organizations will now have the ability to build on their substance use disorder programming while centering the voices of the community they know so well and who have been directly impacted by the overdose crisis.” MBTA’S INCOME-ELIGIBLE REDUCED FARE PROGRAM BEGINS ON SEPTEMBER 4 - The MBTA announced that expanded access to reduced fares for income-eligible riders begins on Wednesday, September 4, 2024. This new program provides riders who are aged 18-64 and have low income, with reduced one-way fares of approximately 50 percent off on all travel inclujding MBTA buses, subways, commuter rail and The RIDE. The online application is available at mbta.com/income-eligible The application can be completed in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Haitian-Creole or Vietnamese. The launch also includes the availability of in-person support at five locations around the MBTA service area. For more information, call617-222-3200. QUOTABLE QUOTES “Our audit found that, under prior leadership, the Convention Center cherry-picked when it was convenient or not convenient to follow public records law, Chapter 30B, alongside its own policies and procedures with regard to state procurement and contracting. Deeply troubling is also the fact that prior leadership violated the law in executing a $1.2 million non-disclosure agreement – concealing allegations of racial discrimination.” ---State Auditor DiZoglio upon the release of her audit of the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority. “Absenteeism is really a manifestation of an unmet need. Schools offer counseling, extracurricular activities, meals and the chance to learn with and from students’ peers. If students aren’t there, they can’t benefit from these opportunities and are missing out on so much more than their education.” ---Massachusetts Education Secretary Patrick Tutwiler announcing the Healy administration’s“Your Presence is Powerful” campaign as part of its continued efforts to reduce chronic absenteeism and support students getting back into the classroom where they have access to a variety of supports, including universal free school meals and mental health services. “Yes, a median sale price of $650,000 was a new all-time high for the month of July, and month after month prices are setting new records, but price gains are smaller than they could be. Interest rates are more than double where they were two years ago, and I’m certain prices would be even higher without those changes.” ---Cassidy Norton, Associate Publisher and Media Relations Director of The Warren Group announcing the median single-family sale price in the Bay State rose to $650,000 – an increase of 6.6 percent from the $610,000 price tag in July 2023.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, AUGUST 30, 2024 Page 15 Strong participation, new leadership mark Saugus High’s fall sports season By Dom Nicastro S augus High School is entering a new chapter in its athletic history under the leadership of firstyear Athletic Director Matt Serino. A former athletic director at Winthrop High School and a Saugus native, Serino is enthusiastic about returning to his roots and leading the Saugus sports programs into a promising future. “Being from here, it was an easy decision to come back,” Serino said, reflecting on his return to Saugus. His transition from Winthrop to Saugus comes at a time when the fall sports season is just around the corner, and he has already been impressed by the participation numbers across various sports. “I like to think we’re in a pretty good spot,” he noted. “We’re over 40 kids in football, which I always look at as a great thing. Anytime you can have a varsity JV for football, that’s fantastic.” Serino highlighted the strong participation numbers in other sports as well. Both the boys’ and girls’ soccer programs have seen significant turnout, with boys’ soccer boasting over 50 athletes and girls’ soccer approaching 40. The volleyball program, which made the tournament last season for the first time in program history under Coach Mikayla Niles, had nearly 60 students trying out, while cheerleadBEACON | FROM PAGE 14 HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible latenight sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding ing has over 20 participants. “I’m thrilled with where we’re at now, and I’m hoping that only goes up as school starts,” Serino added. A significant change in the coaching staff this year is in the girls’ soccer program, where April Martinez has taken over from veteran coach Chris Coviello. Saugus was a perennial tourney contender for the last several seasons under Coviello and was at or near the top of its division in the Northeastern Conference. Serino praised Coviello for his contributions, noting, “Chris is the epitome of what you’re looking for in a coach. He’s an awesome guy, and now for him to pass that torch on to April, it was almost too good of a fit.” Martinez, who has deep roots in the Saugus soccer community, is expected to continue the legacy left by her predecessors. “April’s father was [former coach] Ted Moriello, and she was involved in the program as a graduate from here,” Serino said. “She had a relationship with Chris, so it wasn’t like she was just walking into something she wasn’t aware of. She had a very good understanding of the program, the needs, and even the kids.” The football team, led by Coach Steve Cummings, had a promising start last season before being derailed by injuries – ultimately missing the playoffs. However, Serino sees potential in this year’s younger team. “Now he’s got some kids that maybe he wasn’t anticipating getting a lot of playing time last year that had to step into those roles,” Serino said. “I’m excited to see if they can build off of last year.” Volleyball is another program on the rise at Saugus High, led by Saugus alum Niles. Last year, the team made it to the tournament and competed fiercely within their conference. “Mikayla is awesome,” Serino said. “Her kids are motivated, they’re hungry, they’re working hard every day, and they definitely want to play for her. She’s been a great asset to our coaching staff.” Looking ahead, Serino has his sights set on strengthening Saugus’s athletic programs further, including the potential revival of the Saugus hockey team as a standalone program. Currently part of a co-op with Peabody, Serino hopes to see Saugus hockey return to its former glory. He was part of a couple state titles as a player himself. “The end goal is we always want to be able to provide our own teams,” he said. “I don’t think it’s a question of if that will happen; I just think it’s a question of when.” Serino acknowledged that rebuilding the hockey program would require a concerted effort from the community to keep local talent at Saugus. “We need our kids to stay at Saugus, and we need them to commit to wanting to the end of an annual session. During the week of August 19-23. the House met for a total of 30 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 15 minutes. Mon.

He is determined to showcase the school’s strengths to keep students and families engaged in the community. “We’re always going to try and showcase our building, our facilities, ALS | FROM PAGE 4 and refreshments for all registered walkers. Kings Bowl of Lynnfield, an annual supporter of the walk, will again provide refreshments for registered walkers, as will Main Street Grille and Taphouse, and Shaws of Wakefield. The Angel Fund will also honor those who have ALS and those who have lost their battle with the disease with the Faces of ALS®. Any participating team or individual who would like to honor a loved one with a poster along the walkway should send a high-resolution photo to theangelfundals@gmail.com by our educational system, and our athletic system as best we can,” he said. “The goal is to give people the ability to make a sound decision.” As the fall sports season officially kicked off on Aug. 26 with the golf team taking on Swampscott at Cedar Glen, Serino is optimistic about what lies ahead. “We’ve got a great group of coaches, and the kids are motivated and ready to compete,” he said. “I’m looking forward to seeing how they perform this year.” September 1st. Donations to the Angel Fund for ALS Research can also be made online, or can be sent to The Angel Fund, 649 Main Street, Wakefield, MA 01880. All donations should be made payable to The Angel Fund for ALS Research. Walkers are encouraged to create their own webpage to raise money online.

Page 16 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, AUGUST 30, 2024 The Sounds of Saugus By Mark E. Vogler Good morning, Saugus Sure seems like an odd way to begin the school year, at least from a scheduling standpoint. Saugus Public Schools just welcomed students back on Tuesday. But beginning today (Friday, Aug. 30), there will be no school till next Wednesday (Sept. 4) as most kids will get to enjoy what looks like a five-day weekend on paper. “I realize that at first it may be slightly strange,” School Superintendent Michael Hashem wrote in a recent Community Newsletter posted on the School Department website. “But we are allowing for a long Labor Day weekend for everyone and accommodating the election given that our schools are polling locations,” the superintendent further explained. Three days of school, and five days off. Back in the day when I was attending Swansea Public Schools in Southeastern Massachusetts, summer vacation usually ended the day after Labor Day, a National holiday that’s observed the first Monday in September. But for many years now, a lot of kids are back in school the final week of August. The State Primary Election Tuesday The Town of Saugus and every community across the state will hold the state Primary Election on Tuesday, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Registered voters in each of the town’s 10 precincts are eligible to vote on one of three ballots: Democratic Party, Republican Party or Libertarian Party (only write-in). Meanwhile, today (Friday, Aug. 30) is the final day of In-Person Early Voting in the Community Room of the Saugus Public Library. The voting runs from 8:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Please see the story in today’s issue for polling locations and the field of candidates. Back To School Celebration Tuesday The threat of inclement weather forced the cancellation of the “Back To School Celebration” originally scheduled for this past Monday (Aug. 26) from 4-6 p.m. at the Belmonte School Field at 25 Dow St. But the event – which is being sponsored by The Boys & Girls Club of Saugus and WIN Waste Innovations – has been rescheduled to Tuesday (Sept. Books may be dropped off at the Library’s Main Circulation Desk during normal business hours. Please do not place donations in the outdoor book drops. The New Friends, a nonprofit organization, is a group of people with an interest in improving the Library building, programs, services and collections. The New Friends sponsor activities and provide services that benefit and stimulate interest in the Saugus Public Library by: • Presenting free programs for all ages at the Library • Purchasing museum passes for use by Saugus Public Library patrons • Purchasing books, videos, magazines and equipment for the Library • Funding the Library’s online events calendar and museum pass reservation software • Holding used book sales and the on-going used book sale in the Community Room in addition to other fund-raising events to benefit the Library • Becoming Library VolunFIREFIGHTERS WITH KIDS: Left to right: Captain Billy Cross and Firefighter Matt Massone of the Saugus Fire Department were a big hit with kids during their Aug. 15 visit to the Saugus Iron Works National Historic Site.

(Courtesy photo to the Saugus Advocate by Amy Melton) 3) from 4-6 p.m. at the former Waybright Elementary School at 25 Talbot St. The location for the “Back To School Celebration” was switched because the Belmonte Middle School will be used on Tuesday as one of the town’s polling places. School-age kids are welcome to join the afternoon, as they gear up for the new school year. There will be a police cruiser and fire truck for kids to explore and a giant corn maze. Saugus’s very own Nick’s Pizza will be there. There will also be a Bouncy House. Free school supplies will also be available while they last. With a good weather forecast for Tuesday, it should be a fun way for kids to wrap up a long holiday weekend and end their summer on a happy note. Vacations count on good health Sorry if your emails or phone calls went unanswered during the last two weeks, when I was away on vacation. I always say there’s no such thing as bad time off. And the best part of going on vacation is having good health so you’re able to enjoy it. As vacations go, I’d have to consider this one, one of my least favorite ones. I came down with a pesky summer cold on my first day off. Summer colds can be the nastiest and toughest to shake. I had to cancel most of my plans to spend time with friends. But, I was fortunate to have the time off to get over the cold, rest up and do some walking outside during this beautiful autumn-like weather we’ve been experiencing recently. This week was my first week back, and I look forward to my favorite season – The Fall. The highlight of my week was getting a postcard from the UMass Amherst Foundation inviting me to join other members of the UMass Class of 1974 on our 50th “Golden” Anniversary. I’ve already registered for the event in late September. Should be fun to reconnect with college classmates and friends I haven’t seen in years. Founders Day Sept. 14 Founders Day, one of the most popular town events of the year, will be a week later this year. It’s usually observed on the first Saturday in September. This year it will be observed on Sept. 14 instead of Sept. 7. If you are new to town, this is a great event to make new friends and learn more about your community. If you are a town resident who has never been to a Founders Day or who hasn’t been to one in years, this is a great opportunity to visit with your friends or get reacquainted with friends you haven’t seen in years. Founders Day Book Sale Sept. 14 The New Friends of the Saugus Public Library are preparing for their annual Founders Day Book Sale, which is set for Saturday, Sept. 14, in the library’s Community Room. The Friends are requesting donations of gently used adult hardcover and softcover adult, young adult and children’s books; no text books, encyclopedias or pamphlets. And please... Donate clean and newer books only; no tattered pages, odors, stains or faded/ battered/dirty covers! teers Thank you for your support of the New Friends of the Saugus Public Library.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, AUGUST 30, 2024 Page 17 Saugus Gardens in the Summer Here’s what’s blooming in town this week to make your walks more enjoyable By Laura Eisener S andy Mears planted her Summerific ‘Valentine’s Crush’ hibiscus – also known as rose mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos) – just last fall, and it is already rewarding her with dinner-plate-size blossoms this summer. Rose mallow, or hardy hibiscus, is one of the largest flowers of any native plant. Its flowers can be red, white, various tints of pink or white/pink with a red center. Semi-double varieties are also available now. A relative of the cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis) pictured in this column August 16 is the great blue lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica), which is growing next to the Appleton-Taylor-Mansfield House at Saugus Iron Works. Both species are native to New England as well as farther north and south, but the cardinal flower is more common than its blue relative. Great blue lobelia is most often a true bright blue, although it can also be purple or white, and hybrids between this and the Cardinal flowers are occasionally available in specialty nurseries. Both like moist soils and shady locations, although they can thrive in sunny spots if the soil is consistently damp. I am sure the great blue lobelia at the Iron Works was deliberately planted in the Iron Works garden, although the goldenrod bloomA snowy egret observed a duck take flight on the Saugus River near the Northern Strand Community Trail on Tuesday morning. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) ing next to it is almost certainly a volunteer. Tall goldenrod (Solidago altissima, formerly S. canadensis), also known as late goldenrod, is one of the most familiar of about 150 species known as goldenrod which grow across much of the United States, Canada and northern Mexico. Almost all goldenrods are yellow flowering perennials that bloom in late summer, although one relative, known as silverrod (Solidago bicolor) or white goldenrod, has white flowers. They are common meadow plants. People used to believe they caused hay fever, although the culprit is far more often the less conspicuous common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia), also known as Roman wormwood, which blooms around the same time in similar locations. Both goldenrod and sunflowers are actually members of the Aster family (Asteraceae), and both have similarly constructed flower heads although the size of the flower heads are quite different.

(Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) Poison ivy berries are ready to attract birds, and some foliage is beginning to show its fall color. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) A bee forages in the blossoms of a blue lobelia at the Saugus Iron Works National Historic Site. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) brought me down to the rail trail, where the osprey (Pandion haliaetus) pair were in their nest. A snowy egret (Egretta thula) waded in the water of the river, and several ducks flew by. Snowy egrets are the smaller of two all-white heron relatives that are often seen in the Saugus River, the other being the great egret (Ardea alba) – also sometimes called the white heron. Both of these birds were once endangered due to the popularity of collecting their feathers for ladies’ hats during the late 19th century. Two Massachusetts women, Hariette Hemenway and Minna B. Hall, held tea parties to convince other socialites to forego the use of feathered hats, laying the groundwork for what became the Audubon Society, and leading to the outlawing of the plume trade. Now populations of these species and others have rebounded considerably. One of my neighbors and a couple of my clients have suffered from reactions to poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans) this summer, encountered when working in their gardens. Poison ivy berries are food for a variety of bird species, but the seeds pass right through them and readily grow wherever the bird made its next pit stop, leading to new poison ivy coming up unexpectedly in gardens, along paths and roadsides and in the woods. It is important to note that poison ivy leaves may change color and size through the seasons and may be shiny in spring but less so later in summer. Be wary of any vines with three leaflets unless they have thorns, which poison ivy would not have. The sap contains an allergen that affects many people. Right now, most poison ivy is still green, but some may be starting to turn red.

Dear Savvy Senior, What are the early signs and symptoms of diabetes? I’m 60 years old, and in pretty good shape, but was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. What did I miss? Diabetic Dan Dear Dan, The signs and symptoms of INHERITED IRA REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS T he IRS recently finalized its regulations on inherited IRA Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) in July of this year. This area of the tax law has become more and more complicated. The Secure Act involved major tax legislation relating to RMDs when dealing with benefi ciaries other than spouses, minor children, beneficiaries less than 10 years younger than the decedent IRA owner and disabled or chronically ill benefi ciaries, who are referred to as eligible benefi ciaries. The other group of benefi ciaries is referred to as ineligible designated benefi ciaries (i.e. the non-spouse, et al benefi ciaries). An example would be your child. Under the old rule, a child could stretch out the RMDs over his or her life expectancy. This would allow for great tax effi ciency as the distributions could be stretched out over 20, 30 or even 40 years. Under the Secure Act, your child is required to deplete the IRA account within 10 years following the year of your death. This is a massive change in tax law. The new regulations now make it clear that if you reached your Required Beginning Date (RBD) at the time of your death, meanpletely depleted by the end of the 10th year following the year of your death. It should be noted, that depending on one’s tax position, it may very well be benefi cial to actually withdraw funds from the IRA account ratably over that 10 year period to reduce Uncle Sam’s tax bite allowing you to remain in a lower federal tax bracket. The IRS has waived RMDs ing you had already reached the age where you are required to begin taking your RMDs, your child would not only be required to deplete the account by the end of the 10th year following your death, your child would also have to begin taking annual distributions from this IRA account in years 1 through 9, with RMD calculations based upon his or her own life expectancy. This was unclear in the IRS’ previously proposed regulations. In the event you had not reached your RBD and were not required to begin taking your RMDs, your child would not have to take any distributions during years 1 through 9. However, the entire IRA account would have to be comwith respect to inherited IRA’s for calendar years 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. However, the RMDs must commence in calendar year 2025. If you inherited an IRA from someone who died in 2020, the account would still have to be depleted by the end of 2030, notwithstanding the fact that RMDs are not required to be taken until 2025. This rule would not apply to surviving spouses and other eligible benefi ciaries. These rules are complicated to say the least. There are diff erent rules applying to estates and conduit Trusts that have been named benefi ciaries of IRA accounts. Joseph D.

That’s why testing is so important. Here’s what you should know. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention more than 38 million Americans have diabetes today, and another 97 million have prediabetes, but many of them don’t even know they have it. Type 2 diabetes is a disease that develops slowly over decades. Most people have prediabetes for a long time before the disease becomes fullblown diabetes, and even then, it progresses gradually. Diabetes occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. This excess blood sugar damages blood vessels and aff ects circulation, putting you at risk for a host of ailments, from heart attack and stroke to blindness, kidney failure and nerve damage. Signs and Symptoms So how can you tell if you have diabetes? The earliest signs, which are usually subtle, including urinating more frequently (often at night), being thirster and hungrier than usual, weight loss without trying, feeling very tired, having dry itchy skin and blurry vision. And the symptoms that can indicate advanced diabetes and long-term damage has occurred includes cuts or sores that heal slowly, having more infections than usual, and pain or numbness in your feet or legs. Who Should Get Tested? Because prediabetes typically causes no outward symptoms, and the signs of early type 2 diabetes can easily be missed, the only way to know for sure if you have it is to get a blood test. Everyone age 45 years or older should consider getting tested for diabetes, especially if you are overweight with a body mass index (BMI) above 25. See CDC.gov/bmi to calculate your BMI. If you are younger than 45 but are overweight, or have high blood pressure, a family history of diabetes, or belong to an ethnic group (Latino, Asian, African or Native American) at high risk for diabetes, you should get checked too. To help you determine your risk for diabetes, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) has a quick, online risk test you can take for free at Diabetes.org/ risk-test. Diabetes Tests There are three different tests your doctor can give you to diagnosis diabetes. The most common is the “fasting plasma glucose test,” which requires an eight-hour fast before you take it. There’s also the “oral glucose tolerance test” to see how your body processes sugar, and the “hemoglobin A1C test” that measures your average blood sugar over the past three months. It can be taken anytime regardless of when you ate. Most private health insurance plans and Medicare cover diabetes tests, however, if you’re reluctant to visit your doctor to get tested, an alternative is to go to the drug store, buy a blood glucose meter and test yourself at home. They cost around $20. If you fi nd that you are prediabetic or diabetic, you need to see your doctor to develop a plan to get it under control. In many cases lifestyle changes like losing weight, exercising, eating a healthy diet and cutting back on carbohydrates may be all you need to do to get your diabetes under control. For others who need more help, many medications are available. For more information on diabetes and prediabetes or to fi nd help, join a lifestyle change program recognized by the CDC (CDC.gov/diabetes-prevention). These programs offer in-person and online classes in more than 1,500 locations throughout the U.S. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.
