THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, DECEmbEr 2, 2022 Page 15 THE SOUNDS | FROM PAGE 13 of a hefty, terrorized animal,” the story continued. It’s been 47 years since that harrowing experience. But I can still remember my first reaction was to rush into the restroom, then I ran out, my heart pounding wildly as I tried to make sense of things. “The front door wouldn’t quite open for the reporter’s escape. But doe’s destination was the front window…..” I wrote. After smashing that window, the doe sprung across Spring Street right into the front window of a sporting goods store. The doe shattered the front window of Goff’s Sports Inc. but did not penetrate inside the building because of a backboard for a parka display. Witnesses said they saw a hoof kicking around. The doe was temporarily stunned and lying down in the street. A passing mailman thought the deer was dead. But, when he went to touch it, she sprang up quickly and took off down the street and into the woods. When I got back to the office, my editor told me I was all over the local radio station in North Adams. So he wanted me to write a first person story for the front page about the opening day of deer hunting season in Massachusetts. I remember I was still shaking an hour after the incident as I began writing my story, which was headlined “Doe invades Spring Street. Deer season opens with a crash of glass.” Since that incident, I’ve had many close encounters in my car with deer, one time having to jam on my breaks on Nantucket Island to let a family of six cross the road. But, fortunately, I never hit a deer. Knock on wood. “Holly Jolly” coming to The Kowloon The Kowloon Restaurant announced that the Holly Jolly Holiday Party with the Platters® Very Merry Christmas Show is slated for Friday, Dec. 16 at 8 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Showtime is 8 p.m. The Platters are set to perform live in concert – playing all their hits and holiday tunes.

Wreaths Across America On December 17 at noon the Parson Roby Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (MA0136P) is sponsoring their second Wreaths Across America event, helping both Riverside Cemetery and the Old Burying Ground Cemetery to remember and honor veterans by laying remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country’s fallen heroes. “To sponsor your wreath(s) at $15 each or to volunteer to help place wreaths on December 17, please visit www. wreathsacrossamerica.org/ MA0136P or use the QR code. There will be a brief ceremony at noon to honor all branches of the military followed by laying wreaths on our fallen heroes. Invite your friends and family to join us in honoring our servicemen and women. The cut-off date to order is Nov. 28. “2021 was our first year sponsoring this event, which had over 360 wreaths sponsored. The community really stepped up and we are grateful for all the support we received. However, there are more than 1500 veterans’ graves in Riverside and we are hoping that between the community and businesses there will be enough sponsored wreaths to cover all those graves this year.” The Daughters of the American Revolution’s mission is to preserve American history and secure America’s future through education and promoting patriotism.
