TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER 

UPTON — Some 1,750 family 

and friends wished 222 graduates 

of Blackstone Valley Regional 

Vocational Technical High School 

well Saturday, May 17, in the 

Fitzpatrick Competition Center. 

Graduations at Valley Tech in 

recent years have been held outside, 

but the weather continued 

rainy into Saturday morning and 

it was decided to have it inside. 

Some 1,350 seats were set up in 

the center and another 400 in a 

nearby area. 

Addressing the class of 2008, 

Fitzpatrick said: “You have helped

DOUGLAS — In what was a do-ordie 

election for local Democrats, 

incumbent Paula Brouillette defeated 

Republican Eben Chesebrough 

for a three-year term on the Board 

of Selectmen. 

With Brouillette’s return to the 

board by a close margin of 555-524, 

the selectmen’s Republican majority 

maintains a 3-2 edge in most 

votes, with Brouillette usually in 

the minority. Brouillette and fellow 

Democrat Mitchell Cohen see eye to 

eye on many issues, while John 

Bombara, Selectmen Chairman 

Michael Hughes and Scott Medeiros 

are often aligned on the other side. 

Had Chesebrough won the election, 

that would have meant four conservative 

voices on the board against 

one liberal. 

At the same time, it must be said 

that the labels “conservative” and 

“liberal” are not always appropriate 

definers of policy stances. For 

example, it is not at all certain how 

Chesebrough would have voted on 

any number of issues. He favored a 

stronger industrial base, but then so

did Brouillette. Sometimes it is the 

tonality of a general view that tilts a 

general opinion toward interpreting 

a candidate as “liberal” or “conservative.” 

For example, Hughes 

has been hesitant to take every position 

advocated in particular by 

Bombara. Hughes has in fact shown 

a sensitivity to Bombara’s feelings 

on a position Hughes eventually 

may win Bombara over from. 

And Brouillette is the founder of 

the Four Town Study Committee, 

involved in an ongoing assessment 

of policy toward industrial-commercial 

development along the 

Route 146 corridor in Douglas, 

Northbridge, Sutton and Uxbridge.

NORTHBRIDGE — Two years and 

almost $9.5 million later, 

Alternatives is ready to cut the ribbon 

on its ambitious Whitin Mill 

restoration project. 

A ceremony will be held at 10:30 

a.m., Friday, May 30, at Alternatives, 

50 Douglas Road, Whitinsville. 

While the project remains a work 

in progress (though many of its features 

have been complete for some 

time), next week’s event is a way to 

formally announce that the doors to 

Alternatives’ multi-faceted community 

complex are open to the public. 

“We’re finally just going to say, 

‘we’re open,’” said Executive 

Director Dennis Rice. 

For three decades, Alternatives 

has served hundreds of people with 

developmental and psychiatric disabilities 

through its 45 residential 

and employment programs across 

the region. Now, with the advent of 

the Whitin Mill project, the nonprofit 

agency is seeking to forge a 

closer connection with the community 

at large. 

“There’s a great deal of interest,” 

Rice said. “That a human service 

agency would take on a project like 

this is a new paradigm. We want to 

engage the community and build a

Approximately 500 people attended 

the Annual Town Meeting May 13 

and 14 at the high school. 

Approved by voters after several 

weeks of negotiations to resolve an 

impasse between the proposal recommended 

by Town Manager Jill 

Myers and the School Committee’s 

original request, the budget 

includes substantial reductions in 

municipal and education spending. 

Voters did approve transferring

Alternatives to host Valley Friendship Tour 

TRIBUNE ALMANAC 

NORTHBRIDGE — Valley 

Friendship Tour, Alternatives’ annual 

fund-raiser, will be held at 8 a.m., 

May 31, at Alternatives’ Whitin Mill, 

50 Douglas Road in Whitinsville. 

Participants can travel along one 

of six non-competitive routes ranging 

from a mile to 50 miles. Routes 

are open to walkers, runners and 

cyclists. 

Following the event, participants 

will enjoy a complimentary lunch 

and live music by Heritage String 

Band. Both teams and individuals 

are welcome; pre-registration is $20, 

while registration day-of is $25. 

Teams that are formed by community 

organizations, and raise more 

than $1,000, will receive half the 

money they raise to be returned to 

their organization as part of a community-building 

effort. It’s truly a 

fun day for a great cause! 

The tour has become a staple in 

the local community’s annual 

events. Longtime supporter and former 

Board Chair Scott Rossiter, said 

of the tour, “Years ago, Valley 

Friendship Tour was my first long 

bike ride, so I look forward to it 

every year. It’s grown so inclusive 

over the years with something for 



NORTHBRIDGE — It was the 

farewell meeting for Selectmen 

William Audette and John Davis 

Monday night, May 19. 

Davis said he had served the community 

for 30 years in many capacities, 

but being a selectman was very 

difficult. Audette called it “quite a 

ride.” 

Selectman Joseph Montecalvo 

wished them both well. He said he had 

enjoyed arguing with them although, 

everyone.” 

Maryann Newton, of Gaudette 

Insurance Agency, Inc., said, “Being 

a member of ‘Gerry’s Gang’ is special 

because we walk in memory of 

Gerry Gaudette, who loved 

Alternatives. The walk provides me 

an opportunity to give a little something 

back to my community while 

enjoying the company of family and 

friends. It also reminds me just how 

blessed I am to have two healthy, 

beautiful children.” 

Since its inception, Valley 

Friendship Tour has raised more 

than $1 million. 

“We currently have over $60,000 in 

sponsorships from wonderful partners 

and we hope that, with the help 

of the community, including corporate 

teams, we can more than double 

this amount to support our programs,” 

said Dennis Rice, executive 

director of Alternatives. 

Proceeds from the Valley 

Friendship Tour enable Alternatives 

to purchase much needed adaptive 

equipment and furnishings for their 

programs, continue the Community 

Bridging Grant program, and support 

health and wellness initiatives.

he said, he wished they had agreed 

with him more often. 

It was also a moment of poignancy 

in that Selectman James Marzec 

recently lost his mother. He thanked 

all of those who had expressed their 

condolences to him. Davis extended 

his sympathy, mentioning he had lost 

parents recently, too. And Audette has 

had his personal challenges, having 

missed several meetings because of 

illness. 

It was a rough three years for 

Audette and Davis. A group of petitioners 

tried to hold a recall election 

to remove them from office. 

The main reason given by the 

petitioners was that they 

objected to the way Audette 

and Davis went about parting 

ways with former Town 

Manager Michael Coughlin. 

Although the petition failed to 

gather enough signatures, the 

attempt cast a broad shadow 

and either engendered or 

responded to an atmosphere of 

dissatisfaction among a substantial 

portion of residents. 

Still, last Monday’s meeting 

was also given to action. The 

board reversed an earlier negative 

decision and agreed to 

allow the Northbridge Youth 

Soccer Association to play out 

its remaining regular-season

schedule on the new fields behind the 

high school. That will be through 

Sunday, June 8. After that, construction 

is expected to be going on to correct 

a faultily designed major soccer 

field. Brian Burke, town representative 

of the Northbridge Youth Soccer 

Association, said the only games at 

issue were (and now are) to be played 

the weekend of May 31-June 1 and 

June 7-8. Selectmen also voted 3-2 to 

allow a 21 percent raise in the rate 

charged sewer users starting July 1. 

DPW Director Richard Sasseville 

said there are about 3,400 users of the 

sewer system. He said the reasons a 

raise is needed is because of the 

increased cost of operating the wastewater 

treatment plant, debt service, 

sewer projects, the rising cost of electricity, 

hauling and disposal of sludge 

made more expensive by the increasing 

cost of diesel fuel, and the upward 

costs of maintaining the treatment 

plant and of chemicals used in the 

processing of wastewater effluent. 

Voting for the new rate were 

Audette, Davis and Marzec. Opposed 

were Charles Ampagoomian Jr. and 

Montecalvo. The latter two argued the 

jump in the rate was too precipitous. 

Davis and Marzec argued that it is 

better to pay as you go rather than 

depleting reserves. The sewer department 

has reserves of $350,000. 

Sasseville said each 3 percent 

increase in rates 

reduces the amount 

required from 

reserves by $50,000. 

He said the average 

additional impact on 

users would be $100.80 

a year. He also said 

some 1,400 users get a 

lower rate because 

they produce 800 

cubic feet of sewage 

or less per quarter. 

Their annual $200 bill 

will go to an average 

of $242. The average 

bill in town will go 

from $480 to $580.80. 

• Selectmen authorized 

Town Manager 

Theodore Kozak to 

sign an understanding 

with the school 

department about 

details of moving and 

maintaining the local 

cable television access 

operation from 

Church Street to the 

high school. The 

change could take 

place in a year, but no 

later than then fall of 

2009.

Multi-talented Warchol to leave behind legacy 



NORTHBRIDGE — With his 

white mustache and piercing yet 

composed gaze seemingly 

omnipresent and unending, 

teacher-historian-coach-bee 

expert Kenneth Warchol will be 

giving up seven positions when he 

retires next month after a 35-year, 

multiple career. 

In all of the major posts he has 

held, Warchol has achieved the 

status of an institution. With that 

has evolved an image of maturity 

that belies the fact this is a man 

still in middle age who is so 

accomplished it is hard for anyone 

outside his family to realize he 

was once a kid just like all 

the other students he teaches 

and coaches. 

In fact, for the first four tears of 

his life, Warchol spoke mostly 

Polish on the western heights of 

Rockdale where he grew up. His 

late father Walter Warchol was in 

the Polish Underground that 

fought the Nazis in World War II 

and, hiding in a barn and peeking 

through a crack in the slats, he 

once saw Hitler giving a pep talk 

to his troops. Although his father 

preferred Polish to English, 

Kenneth Warchol said his mother, 

the former K. Helen Minor, who is 

bilingual, spoke English to him so 

that the transition to public 

schools went fairly smoothly. But 

he is still adept at Polish and when 

he was taking tests in the Army 

in the mid-1970s, he scored a 92 

on a Polish exam, higher than 

many government specialists in 

that country. 

He was named the 

Massachusetts Teacher of the 

Year in 1994, was the recipient of 

the Massachusetts Bee-Keepers 

Association Award in 1987 and 

won the Henry Sullivan Award as 

the Massachusetts Advisor of the 

Year for his 28 years of working 

with Student Councils. 

Warchol looks like a baseball 

coach in a Robert Redford film or 

like the stepfather of Anne of 

Green Gables. He is someone 

seemingly too kind in nature to be 

competitive. But that is all appearance. 

The reality is he has been 

super-competitive all of his life. 

He is a strange mixture of wanting 

to win and yet seeming really 

not to care about that in favor of 

the friendships he has forged with 

many of the nearly 2,000 studentathletes 

he has coached. 

But the numbers tell a story of 

remarkable dominance as a track 

and cross-country coach. His 

overall record as a coach is 668 

wins, 375 losses, and two ties. That 

has included 14 SWCL girls’ track 

championships, three girls’ track 

district titles and two runnerup 

finishes, nine girls cross country 

titles, and five boys’ cross country 

championships. In all, Warchol 

has coached 14 undefeated teams. 

The girls’ track mark under his 

mentorship is 247-96-1. Girls’ cross 

country is 236-123, and boys’ cross 

country is 185-156-1. 

A splendid track star at 

Worcester State College in the 

early 1970s, Warchol proved to 

have the speed and endurance of a 

Forrest Gump in his Army training, 

winning his brigade’s top 

honors for physical fitness.

track,” Warchol reflected, “I was 

in the best shape in my life. I 

did the 400, 200 and long and 

triple jump.” 

He said large numbers from the 

101st Airborne Assault Unit were 

wiped out just before he finished 

his training, and he figured he 

was tabbed as a replacement during 

his time at Ft. Campbell, Ky. 

“We had jungle training and air 

assault training with helicopters,” 

he recalled. “They had converted 

the 101st to an air assault unit. I 

was rappelling 150 feet down a 

rope the helicopter dropped while 

hovering just above treetops. That 

was in August of 1973.” But when 

he finished his training and was 

about to be flown to Vietnam, the 

bombing of Hanoi and the Paris 

Peace Talks, he said, changed 

things and all deployments to 

Vietnam were halted. 

He no sooner got out of the 

Army than he received a call from 

former Northbridge School 

Superintendent Harry Simonian 

asking him to become a long-term 

teaching substitute for Elizabeth 

Balmer, who had set a high standard 

at Northbridge High with 

her background as a headmistress 

at the Foxcroft School in Virginia 

and her time with the U.S. Foreign 

Service in Canada. 

He had already obtained a master’s 

degree in History at 

Assumption College and had 

started on a doctoral program in 

history at Clark, but he was married 

to the former Deborah Smith 

of Webster and the job seemed 

attractive. The couple has two 

daughters, Lindsay, who graduated 

from Boston University, and 

Keri, a graduate of Anna Maria 

College. 

So, he implied, college tuitions 

have kept him from joining 

the ranks of Bill Gates and 

Warren Buffet. 

Warchol no doubt would have 

made a fine college professor, but 

it was Northbridge’s gain that he 

decided to stay here. 

You have to go and sit in the middle 

school auditorium to believe 

what Warchol brings off in his 

teaching of the American 

Revolutionary era to eighthgraders. 

He has established a dramatic 

format wherein one student 

plays the role of newscaster while 

others take on the roles of George 

Washington, John Adams, 

Thomas Jefferson, Alexander 

Hamilton or James Madison. The 

kids get into the issues — 

Hamilton and his backing of a 

national bank, the sometimes 

acidic relationship between 

Adams and Jefferson, the 

maneuvering of Washington, the 

surprising genius of Madison. In 

fact, Warchol breaks up his 

eighthgraders into groups that 

compete against each other. 

Eighth-graders relish the chance 

to reel off arguments attributable 

to one or another of the original 

actors appearing in “The 

Federalist Papers.” 

They do the same thing with the 

Jacksonian era. 

Warchol said he likes to leave 

his students guessing what his 

own opinion of a Washington or a 

Jefferson is. 

Kenneth Warchol will retire as a teacher next month. 

“Was George Washington liberal 

or conservative? It’s not what I 

think,” he tells his students. “It’s 

what you think.” 

The same goes for Iraq, he said. 

“You can really influence kids,” 

he said, “and I don’t think I should 

impress my views on them. I’ll 

present both sides.” 

“They do enjoy arguing one 

side or the other,” he said of 

his students. 

“‘Based on the decisions 

Washington made, was he an 

effective president?’” Warchol 

said he puts to his students.” 

“I see many graduates at weddings 

and functions 20 years 

later,” he said, reflecting on the 

roughly 5,000 students he has 

taught over the years. “‘You 

remember me?’ they ask. ‘Of 

course I do,’ I say.” 

“The amazing thing is they 

remember the plays we did,” 

Warchol reflected. “Games about 

the Civil War, Strategic battles. 

They remember these things. And 

I role-play. I put on a white wig or 

a top hat. I’ll be Jefferson, or 

Jackson or Paul Whitin.” 

“I’m against sheer memorization,” 

Warchol said of his 

approach to teaching. That is not 

the way to understand history, 

he said. 

“You need to have the students 

buy into the character,” he said. 

“Have them study their views and 

characters.” 

He said he realized the newscast 

format was a big hit with the kids 

as soon as he tried it. 

“We started with a newscast and 

added a play,” he said. “It brings 

history to life.” 

“Twenty-five years later, graduates 

come up to me and ask: ‘Do 

you still do your newscast play?’” 

Warchol knew at 14 he wanted to 

become a teacher. His first experience 

imparting information to 

others was when he was on the 

road to becoming an Eagle Scout.

“I instructed other Scouts,” 

he said. 

Maybe the next best thing to 

walking on water is to be able to 

pull out a tray of thousands of 

bees while wearing only a T-shirt 

and never get stung. 

That has been Warchol’s 

experience. 

Beekeeping goes back six generations 

in the Warchol line. His 

father tended beehives in Warsaw 

during World War II. 

Warchol is certified by the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture as 

a federal bee inspector. He checks 

out some 2,500 beehives during 

the summer. 

“It’s mainly in Central 

Massachusetts,” he said. 

Sometimes he gets out his microscope 

to inspect beehives for 

viruses. 

“It’s a great diversion from 

the classroom,” he explained. 

“It frees up your mind for the 

classroom. It’s partly why I don’t 

get burnt out.” 

While many of the beehive owners 

he visits have been stung 

numerous times by their bees, 

even when wearing long sleeves, 

Warchol said he wears a T-shirt 

and no protective gear and has 

never been stung. 

“They call me the ‘bee whisperer,’” 

he said with a smile. “Bees 

don’t get on me. It may be because 

I’m not afraid. It’s like a dog that 

senses fear in someone [and 

reacts]. Like my dad. He was never 

stung, either.” 

He said it is fascinating to watch 

how bees come together to seal a 

leak in a honey-cell frame. 

Some people who may not know 

about Ken Warchol’s coaching or 

his bee expertise may well be 

aware of his dedicated work as an 

historian. He brings a passion and 

professionalism to the way he 

pursues history. 

Chairman of the Historical 

Commission since 1981, when former 

longtime local historian and 

commission chairman Peter 

Hackett died, Warchol was behind 

getting three places in town designated 

“historic” — the center of 

Whitinsville, Rockdale, and the 

Linwood Mill. He wrote and edited 

a town brochure with guides to a 

walking tour that takes in most of 

the historic houses in town, with 

comments on their architecture. 

He fostered completion of a 116- 

page, pictorial history of the town, 

guiding an approach in which 

photographs of certain structures 

were taken in 1989 from the same 

spots photographs were snapped 

in 1889. 

Warchol is also proud of the 

many student councils he has 

advised over the years. In fact, his 

student councils in 1987 and in 

1990 won state championships. 

So now, with Warchol stepping 

down, some seven positions will 

have to be filled: boys and girls 

cross country coach, girls track, 

boys and girls winter track, 

Student Council advisor, history 

teacher, and chairman of the 

Historical Commission. 

Warchol said he plans to keep 

busy with his beehive inspections 

at least into this fall. 

Then, he said, he may decide to 

run for some public office, like 

selectman or school committee. 

If you did a kaleidoscope of 

him, Ken Warchol would have to 

appear in a different role on each 

of four mirrors — as George 

Washington wearing a white wig 

in an eighth grade history class; 

looking down at his stopwatch 

during a track meet; digging into 

archives to discover something 

about history; holding out bare 

arms to grasp a beehive frame. 

It bespeaks a remarkable 

complexity of talents not likely 

soon to be seen at your neighborhood 

theater.

Memorial Day 

and reflection 

For many Americans, the final Monday 

in May marks the unofficial beginning 

of summer, a long weekend and a convenient 

opportunity to fire up the barbeque 

for the first time since last summer. 

None of this reflects the true meaning of 

Memorial Day, which will be observed this 

year on May 26. Remembering the men and 

women who gave their lives in battle has, of 

course, been the significance of the holiday 

since it began being observed during the Civil 

War. 

Memorial Day takes on added importance 

when the nation is at war, as is the case today. 

To date, more than 4,000 Americans have 

made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq. 

Notwithstanding that they volunteered for 

military service, and regardless of what one 

thinks of the war’s merits, these brave, mostly 

young men and women should be in our 

thoughts and prayers this coming weekend. 

Ask a child what Memorial Day is all about 

and you’re likely to hear more about that day 

off from school and cookout than remembering 

our war dead. There is, however, a readily 

available way to correct this misconception: 

Attend your town’s Memorial Day ceremonies. 

Many families line the streets for the 

annual parade of vehicles, marching bands 

and dignitaries, but far fewer attend the concluding 

ceremonies. It’s at these ceremonies 

that men and women, many of whom understand 

first hand the horrors of war, offer powerful 

instruction about the day’s real magnitude. 

So enjoy the time off and throw the burgers 

and dogs on the grill. But also take time to 

teach your children that Memorial Day is 

essentially about remembering those who 

fought and died in our name. 

IN PERSPECTIVE 

Any inkling that the nation’s mainstream 

media has been doing a better job of providing 

both sides of a story has been thwarted 

these past several months by coverage of the 

Clinton-Obama battle for the Democratic presidential 

nomination. 

In what has turned out to be the closest primary 

campaign in modern history, little has 

been made of the disenfranchisement of millions 

of voters in Florida and Michigan. 

Instead, there has been a de facto coronation 

of Obama by many networks and national 

magazines. 

We wonder if the same negligence would be 

taking place if Obama were expected to win 

handily in those two states.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR 

Food collection a success 

To the Editor: 

On behalf of the Northbridge Association 

of Churches Food Pantry, we would like to 

thank all who were involved with the 16th 

annual food drive sponsored by the National 

Association of Letter Carriers on Saturday, 

May 10. 

This year, through the generous donations 

of Northbridge residents and with the help of 

postal employees, youth group members 

from Fairlawn Christian Reformed Church 

It must be devastating 

for Hillary Rodham 

Clinton to see her 

chances of becoming the 

Democratic nominee fade 

into oblivion. 

It has to be beyond infuriating 

to have the media 

that once so blindly worshipped 

and adored her 

mischievous better half 

turn on her and declare 

with such confidence — to a country 

that, as far as she is concerned has not 

yet had the final word — that the die is 

cast, and hers’ is now an unstoppable 

plunge into defeat. 

This is supposed to be the time at 

which the planets should have been perfectly 

aligned to signal her messianic 

arrival. This is the hour for which she 

was born; this is supposed to be her 

moment. And who would dare presume 

to take that away from her? 

The answer to that is a no less ambitious 

contender named Barack Obama. 

And to have her rival even begin to consider 

planning a victory rally (and mere 

news pundits like Tim Russert or 

George Stephanopoulos in essence 

declare that she should no longer stay in 

the game) must conjure up feelings and 

thoughts in her mind too inappropriate 

to put into words. 

So it is only a matter of time before 

she or her husband drops some kind of 

bomb. It’s almost inevitable. This may 

just be the most opportune time to 

expose that scandalous news from 

Obama’s past Hillary once claimed she 

was in possession of. The suspense is 

part of what is making this whole race 

for the nomination in the Democratic 

Party — which seems to be experiencing 

an identity crisis — so interesting to 

watch. 

One wonders how many undecided 

voters will simply become angry and 

disgusted enough from witnessing this 

no-holds- barred brawl for raw power 

between two presumably well-bred 

human beings. They could simply refuse 

to vote, or perhaps even better, vote 

and many other volunteers, more than 4,700 

pounds of food was collected and delivered to 

the pantry. 

As a result, we will be able to assist many 

local families in need for weeks to come. 

Thanks again for your support of this ministry.

Republican. That remains 

to be seen. One can only 

hope. 

But there is no doubt that 

this entire spectacle has 

left an awful taste in the 

mouths of many who had 

embarked in this journey 

with rather modest expectations 

of what was promised 

would be a race 

marked with the utmost 

civility and decor, rather than the grand 

comedy of errors it has turned out to be 

thus far — especially from two candidates 

who solemnly pledged a new era of 

politics free from character assassination 

tactics. 

The political paparazzi are poised to 

catch the next odious gesture from 

either candidate. The pundits are dissecting 

every word, analyzing every 

nuance, and seizing upon any passing 

remark with even a smidgen of potentially 

racist or misogynist undertones. 

As for Hillary, her strategists are very 

likely brainstorming, working feverishly 

to avoid making her campaign look 

like an exercise in futility, and digging 

dirt at a frenzied pace, while the clock is 

ticking and the candle burns at both 

ends into what probably will be a long, 

hot summer. 

But Hillary is not known to be of the 

sort who graciously accepts defeat with 

dignity — and very few Democratic 

hopefuls have recently displayed a good 

loser mentality anyway. 

Coupled with the fact that she has 

devoted her whole earthly existence to 

reaching this summit, the next few 

weeks will undoubtedly bring some very 

entertaining, and perhaps shocking surprises 

from her camp. After all, what 

has she got to lose now? 

And who can forbid her tenacity, when 

the alternative would be to forever 

regret having allowed fate to get in the 

way of a destiny she had so painstakingly 

orchestrated. 

Miguel Guanipa, of Whitinsville, is a 

Tribune columnist. 

‘This is 

the News’ 

Occasionally about writing. 

someone asks me 

Not all that often. 

My first impression is to be flattered. Because 

writing as an act includes the products 

of the greatest genius and the most routine 

news releases. 

It spans Herman Melville, Emily Dickinson, 

Walt Whitman, James Agee, William Faulkner 

and a few others among American 

writers of genius. 

So it can be intimidating to pronounce on 

something even those greats were loath to 

pontificate about. 

First of all, to learn the length and breadth, 

the nuts and bolts, of the world of journalism, a 

student can 

profit from 

majoring in 

journalism. Nor 

do I have any- 

MUSINGS 

thing against 

journalism 

s c h o o l s . 

However, there 

is an argument 

THOMAS 

MATTSON 

among many 

news people unfavorable to journalism as a 

college major. The reason for that, I think, is that 

learning a trade, whether for the print or broadcast 

medium, can be narrowing at a time in life 

a student should be gaining a wide base of 

knowledge. 

A broad exposure to knowledge is helpful for 

two reasons, one practical, the other not so 

practical, at least on the surface. 

Believe it or not, wide reading and conversation 

make reporting, editing and photography 

more interesting, both for the journalist and for 

the reader. But even more important than that is 

that an attachment to the highest and best 

thought of mankind can become a kind of 

engine that drives the parochial onto a 

hydraulic lift. That, in turn, can keep even a 

mechanical journalist from getting bored. 

While much of the makeup of a newspaper is 

dictated by events, meetings, and announcements 

that come from outside, features, 

columns, headlines, photographs and 

captions require something from within 

the newsperson. 

It is my belief that persons with a formal 

journalism background get out of the gate 

faster than persons who major in English or 

philosophy or religion or music or art, but I also 

think the latter majors serve people better over 

the long haul. 

There is a great prejudice in this country in 

favor of strictly vocational education. It all 

seems so no-nonsense in a tough world. I think 

it is because of this emphasis that almost no 

American can speak with references to a body of 

knowledge common to a well-educated Brit. 

In fact, even the way Americans 

approach what is called “the creative arts” 

is redolent of vocational command lacking a 

sense of freedom. 

So many of the political pundits, with a few 

notable exceptions like David Brooks, have 

street smarts but no intellectual background to 

draw upon. For one thing, they just about never 

refer to anything further back in history than 

1992. It does get boring listening to them talk 

about the presidential nomination races. They 

can point only to hard numbers from day to day. 

Even some of our most revered, National 

Public Radio philosopher-pundits leave one 

with no memorable insights after an hour’s 

conversation. It is almost uncanny. 

Although I would prefer that anyone who 

wants to go into journalism try something else 

first — like medicine, law, engineering, or the 

N.B.A. —I do not want to discourage someone 

from becoming a journalist. But it is just that I 

would like to see more journalists with 

expertise in at least one field. By expertise, I 

mean exposure to a discipline in a serious way. 

It could be in business. It could be trying to 

become a composer of classical or of some other 

kind of music. It could be working 

for and among the have-nots either in this 

country or elsewhere. 

I worked for two dailies, one for less than a 

year out in California, and then for 21 years at 

another daily. And I have worked for a weekly 

for more than a dozen years. 

I remember how excited I was when I wrote 

stories for my high school newspaper. I did not 

work on my college paper, although some who 

did became nationally famous. 

One of the things I like about newspapers is 

the sense of making something new each week. 

You win some and lose some. But I think if I am 

critical of people rushing into a news career, I 

would not want to deny some of the positives of 

working on a newspaper. 

Chief among these, I think, is the interest you 

naturally have in what other people do and say. 

And it gets you out of yourself. 

Some critics say they go to a meeting and the 

newspaper report about it is nothing like the 

meeting. The reason for that is that if you print 

every word said at a fairly typical two-hour 

meeting, it could well total 60 or more pages, or 

18,000 words. I know that from talking with 

court reporters who do take down every word. 

The newspaper article may be three pages or 900 

words. In other words, five percent of what was 

said. So there has to be some selectivity. 

Finally, what an enterprise a town is. 

And what a privilege to convey its 

daily unfolding. 

Then, too, some of us early on fell under the 

spell of Edward R. Murrow and Eric Sevareid. 

When Murrow began his broadcasts with 

“This is the news,” we were enthralled.

OPINION 

Keep the cards coming 

As many of 

you may 

already know, 

this newspaper — 

along with its other 

free sister publications 

— is in the 

midst of a campaign 

to solicit signed 

requests to ensure 

continued delivery 

to your home. 

Basically, it works 

like this: For some time now, you’ve 

gotten the paper — mailed free of 

charge — and an ad of some varying 

form reminding readers to 

return a coupon or card (it must be 

signed), or else delivery will cease. 

Cutting through all the rumors 

and speculation, what this basically 

means is, at a time when the 

newspaper industry in general is 

struggling (some admit it candidly, 

others like to pretend all is well, 

while taking jabs at and spreading 

misinformation about their competition), 

there is a way to mail the 

paper at a rate drastically lower 

than what is currently charged. 

Self-serving? Certainly. 

It would, for example, help put 

our dedicated and longstanding 

group of local papers in a better 

BIRD’S 

NEST 

WALTER 

BIRD JR. 

position to deal and 

cope with a drastically 

changed journalism 

market. It 

could mean being 

able to hire more 

reporters or get 

more resources to 

continue putting out 

the best possible 

product. 

And that certainly 

isn’t without value 

to you, the reader. 

See, for every one coupon/card 

you sign and return saying you 

want to continue receiving the 

paper, the company can mail out 

two copies — one to you and one to 

another residence. Ostensibly, if 

we were to get back 50 percent, plus 

one, of all the cards and coupons 

sent out, we could continue to mail 

papers to every home, every week. 

That, of course, would be our 

pleasure. 

Now, that may or may not be realistic. 

But here’s what’s so great 

about what’s happening with 

Stonebridge Press newspapers. 

Wherever that number stops, 

whether it’s 20 percent, or 30, or 

whatever — businesses (our customers) 

can rest assured that the 

paper is being read by that many 

people. Why? Because they took the 

time to request it. And when you’re 

a paper that depends on ad revenue 

to exist, you need to give your customer 

the most bang for their buck. 

Other papers will tell you they’re 

delivering more papers, so therefore 

the customer should stick with 

them. Not so. 

What they don’t tell their customers 

is that, in many cases, bulk 

drops at select locations inflate 

their delivery numbers. So, while 

the number may be bigger, there 

really is no way of knowing how 

many people are actually reading 

the paper. 

Here, as a business owner, you 

will know exactly how many people 

are going to see your ad week 

in, week out. They didn’t just have 

the paper mailed to them — they 

asked for it. These readers will, 

guaranteed, be looking through the 

paper. They’ll see the ads. 

So far, we have received thousands 

of cards/coupons in 

response to our campaign. In many 

cases, there have been handwritten 

notes of appreciation and support 

attached. That means a lot to us, 

here. Believe me, you have no idea. 

It’s an often-thankless job, newspapering 

is. There is no real 

barometer of success. You hope 

you’re having an impact; you hope 

people like what you’re doing. The 

truth is, we really only here from 

folks when they have something to 

criticize or want to point out a mistake. 

For example, one requester card 

came across this desk, and it was 

clear the individual did not wish to 

continue receiving the paper. 

Written on the card was: “Your 

paper is quite good, but I like opinion 

columns and couldn’t take 

every week of Bird simply “trashing” 

all Democrats.” 

Ah, it’s always good here in the 

Bird’s Nest to know we have fans. 

That’s OK. It’s more than OK. A 

newspaper should never stop striving 

for perfection, and you the 

reader are the only real barometer 

we have. 

Reading some of the comments 

that have accompanied the dozens 

upon dozens of cards and coupons 

has been nothing short of inspirational. 

When, in Connecticut almost 

three years ago, we launched the 

very first free issues under our slogan 

of “Every Home, Every Week,” 

we pledged to be local, local, local. 

We have striven to remain true to 

that commitment. As the months 

and years have passed, we’ve 

pulled other papers into the fold, 

going from paid subscriptions to 

free delivery. 

Yes, we are slightly changing the 

“Every Home, Every Week” slogan. 

With your help, though, we could 

conceivably continue to reach 

every household. 

No matter what, the mission will 

never change. We will cover local 

news and sports, offer local photos, 

and reach out to you, our reader, to 

submit your story ideas, your photos 

and anything else that is near 

and dear to you in your community. 

We will also continue to offer up 

Opinion pages that deal with the 

local and the not so local, so long as 

they’re issues we feel are of interest 

to our readership. 

So keep the cards and coupons 

coming. Tell your friends. Tell 

them to tell their friends. 

And feel free to attach a comment 

or two on the card to let us know 

what you think or your free, local 

newspaper.

Remembering not to forget 

Yogi Berra might put it this way: 

“Sometimes we forget to remember.” 

Which is a shame, of course, because 

remembering is one of the greatest pleasures, 

and sweetest joys, of being human. (They say, 

of course, that elephants NEVER forget, but 

really, what’s an elephant got to remember? 

How many bananas it had for breakfast and 

when to wander off to the elephant graveyard? 

Clutter up an elephant’s Daybook planner 

with PTA meetings, play dates, doctor’s 

appointments, and soccer practices and then 

let’s see if its memory is still any good!) 

Back in the mid-nineteenth century, 

Americans were urging one another to 

Remember the Alamo; a century ago it was 

Remember the Maine; in 1941, it seemed 

impossible that we might ever forget the “day 

which will live in infamy.” In the 21st century, 

we’ve rallied around remembering 9/11. 

But with Memorial Day on the near horizon, 

I’ve been pondering recently some of the simple 

pleasures of remembering. Actually, I was 

on the way home from an event where I’d just 

helped about 80 teens enjoy a “Make Your 

Own Sundae” ice cream treat. They put us (socalled) 

adults in charge of the toppings in 

order to control the disbursement of bananas, 

pineapples, hot fudge, butterscotch, nuts, and 

such. I was manning the whipped cream and 

maraschino cherry stations, literally the end 

of the line in this assembly routine. 

What impressed me about the experience, 

however, was the uniform gratitude, and 

politeness, of the kids. All but two (they must 

be the exception proving the rule) offered sincere 

thanks for a squirt of whipped cream and 

a plop of a cherry on their sundaes. They said, 

“Thank you,” I said, “You’re welcome,” and 

the ice cream and toppings pretty much disappeared 

in a matter of just a few minutes. 

What does any of this have to do with 

remembering? Or Memorial Day? Well, 

Memorial Day used to be about honoring a 

select group of very special people, those 

who’ve rendered service to all of us enjoying 

freedoms and opportunities in America today. 

We’ve expanded the holiday somewhat — now 

including ALL of our departed loved ones in 

our weekend remembrances — and somehow 

we’ve diminished it as well, with the local 

parades and the ceremonies going vastly 

underattended. 

That’s what I mean, I guess, about our forgetting 

to remember. 

Because remembering to give thanks (as 

with the ice cream sundaes) ought to be an 

essential part of our Memorial Day celebrations. 

We didn’t get where we are today as a 

nation without the efforts, achievements, and 

selfless sacrifices of countless predecessors, 

some well-known and very dear to us, others 

unsung or unknown but equally generous in 

their personal contributions. 

And no matter where we are in life, gratitude 

needs to be part of our personal remembrances. 

Whatever our personal trials and 

challenges in life, we’re still HERE, aren’t we, 

enjoying countless blessings and freedoms in 

the greatest nation on earth? (Sure, America 

is imperfect, because it’s made up of millions 

of imperfect, and unyieldingly contrary, individuals, 

but so what? You never hear of people 

trying to sneak into Mexico, or Haiti, or 

Afghanistan by the hundreds of thousands 

seeking better lives and greater opportunities 

for themselves and their families!) 

Those freedoms and opportunities we sometimes 

take for granted didn’t come cheaply, or 

without sacrifices on the part of many who’ve 

come before us. And even if those people are 

way too many to mention (here), they’re not 

too many to remember, if we practice our 

remembering individually and celebrate it 

together. 

One of the things I discovered by way of the 

ice cream event is that simple gratitude 

engenders even greater giving. Sincerely kind 

words (and acts) inspire us to want to “pay it 

forward,” to look for ways to return the favor, 

to do even more for those who are truly grateful, 

even for those of another generation. 

Whatever Memorial Day ends up meaning 

to the next generation of Americans, I hope it 

includes a sincere appreciation of what they 

(and we) have been given, and of those who 

have given it to us. “Forgetting to remember” 

also means forgetting to give thanks, and history 

has shown us the tragic results of such 

ingratitude and memory loss. 

May our Memorial Day be blessed with 

sweet remembering, sincere thanks, and honest 

gratitude for those whose sacrifices and 

service afford us all the opportunity to continue 

to remember.

Uxbridge Town Meeting says no to power plant 

VOTERS 

continued from page A1 

to a higher level of services.” 

Facing a $1.2 million deficit for fiscal 

2009 as early as last summer, selectmen 

charged Myers with submitting a balanced 

budget proposal to Town Meeting. 

Key to the budget agreement approved 

at Town Meeting was the School 

Committee’s vote a week earlier to reduce 

its previous request of $18.5 million to 

$17.7 million. Prior to the panel’s vote, 

School Business Manager Donald Sawyer 

and Finance Director David Genereux 

spent weeks hammering out an accord 

that both sides could live with. The plan 

closed the budget gap in part by saving 

$200,000 through a temporary elimination 

of the school/town building maintenance 

account, $83,000 from combined school 

and 

municipal 

operations and $100,000 by way of a 

reduced health insurance line item. 

MATH 


Superintendent Daniel Stefanilo said he 

obviously wasn’t pleased with the school 

budget cuts. 

“But we’re doing fine,” he said. 

Savings were also incurred last week 

after the town’s 45 non-union employees 

agreed to increase their health insurance 

contribution from 20 percent to 

25 percent. 

Myers credited the non-union employees’ 

decision. 

“It’s one of those things that helps 

lessen the impact to taxpayers,” she said. 

Earlier in the process, Town Hall and 

the school department had narrowed what 

was initially a $757,000 budget disparity 

when they reached a settlement regarding 

the allocation of state Chapter 70 funding. 

The town’s total budget represents a .97 

percent decrease from FY ’09 levels. The 

municipal budget is down $197,182, 

or 3.59 percent and school spending drops 

1.79 percent. 

Along with reduced spending for the 

school department, the budget’s effect 

includes the loss of three full-time and 

four part-time municipal employees, a 

reduced police overtime account and the 

elimination of annual funding for a new 

police cruiser. 

• The citizen-sponsored article that 

sought to revise a two- decades-old prohibition 

against power plants received a 

majority of favorable votes — 277 to 219 — 

but fell far short of the two-thirds majority 

required to amend zoning bylaws. 

Tyngsboro-based DG Clean Power wanted 

to build a 360-megawatt, natural 

gas-fired power plant on a 20-acre parcel 

in the industrial park off Route 146A and 

had offered the town a $25 million, 20-year 

payment in lieu of taxes deal as an incentive. 

The so-called “peaking unit” would 

have operated only about 1,000 hours a 

year to supplement the region’s energy 

grid, according to the company. 

“We just walked away from that money,” 

said local attorney Gerald Lemire, who 

represented DG Clean power here. 

“I’m disappointed, but we made a good 

faith effort.” 

The amendment would have changed 

the wording of the bylaw to permit power 

plants with less than a 500-megawatt 

capacity. Opponents of the amendment, 

however, voiced concern that the proposal 

had not been thoroughly scrutinized and 

that loosening the prohibition could make 

the town vulnerable to additional power 

plant projects. 

“The misinformation was mindboggling,” 

Lemire said. 

The firm will not persevere with the 

attempt to build a power plant here, 

according to Lemire. 

“Their position is that the citizens have 

spoken,” he said. 

• Voters rejected a petition article that 

would have authorized the Board of 

Selectmen to call a special election 

for consideration of a $1.2 million 

tax under-ride. 

NMS math students score big at contest 

Only the top 15 students were 

handed awards from among the 

300-plus entrants from some 20 

public, private and parochial 

schools in Central Massachusetts. 

The other three middle school 

students, all of whom got an award 

by scoring an 11 out of a possible 12 

points, were Amber Brock and 

Thomas Stanovich, both eighthgraders, 

and Cheyenne Huffor, a 

seventh-grader. 

The awards were won by the 

individual students as opposed to 

the school. 

Directed by math teacher 

Kathleen Mancini, the 

Northbridge Middle School took 

36 students to the contest. There 

was no limit to how many students 

came from a particular 

school. They worked in 12 teams 

of 3 apiece. The questions were 

answered in three cases by individual 

students and in one round 

by a school team. 

Mancini teaches Algebra I and 

II. 

The contest ran from 3:15 to 5 

p.m. April 15. 

Jameson was a bit nonplussed 

by his performance. He said he 

wants to be an engineer. But he 

also confessed he needs to bring 

his grades up. He may have discovered 

strengths he didn’t know 

he had, to have finished right 

at the top. 

“You can win by yourself 

or with the school,” Brock 

explained.” 

If our team won,” said 

Stanovich, “it would have been 

Northbridge. All four of us 

got awards because of individual 

performances.” 

Each round had three questions, 

and they became increasingly 

difficult, according to 

the students. 

The first 10-minute individual 

round had three questions about 

Algebra I. Individual Round Two 

was about arithmetic, and 

Individual Round Three was 

about geometry. The fourth 10- 

minute component was a team 

round. A reception and an awards 

ceremony concluded the event. 

“We are all in Algebra I or II,” 

said Brock. “Cheyenne takes 

Algebra I.” 

Algebra II is a juniorlevel 

course. 

Amber, who wants to be a 

medical engineer, said she favors 

Algebra II. She expects high 

school to be harder than middle 

school. 

Stanovich said he is interested 

in engineering, but likes history 

and geography, too. 

Perhaps surprisingly, Stanovich 

did not think Chinese or African 

history had much in the way of 

interesting rulers. 

There is nothing “exciting” in 

their history, he felt. “No figureheads.” 

The one exception he could 

think of was a ruler in Ghana 

around 900 A.D. 

“According to the Home Page 

Web site of Ghana, the Republic of 

Ghana is named after the medieval 

Ghana Empire of West Africa. The 

actual name of the Empire was 

Wagadugu. Ghana was the title of 

the kings who ruled the kingdom. 

It was controlled by Sundiata in 

1240 AD, and absorbed into the 

larger Mali Empire. (The Mali 

Empire reached its peak of success 

under Mansa Musa around 1307.) 

Geographically, the old Ghana 

is 500 miles north of the present 

Ghana, and 

occupied the 

area between the 

Rivers Senegal 

and Niger. 

Some inhabitants of present 

Ghana had ancestors linked with 

the medieval Ghana. This can be 

traced down to the Mande and 

Voltaic people of Northern Ghana- 

Mamprussi, Dagomba and the 

Gonja. 

Anecdotal evidence connected 

the Akans to this great Empire. 

The evidence lies in names like 

Danso shared by the Akans of 

present Ghana and Mandikas of 

Senegal/Gambia who have strong 

links with the Empire. There is 

also the matrilineal connection.” 

“I hope to go into engineering, 

either structural or mechanical,” 

Stanovich said. “I know a mechanical 

engineer who said he uses calculus 

every day outside his job.” 

“If you can do it without a calculator,” 

Mancini told us, “you 

can use one.” 

Looking ahead, Jameson said he 

prefers chemistry or biology. He is 

headed to St. John’s next fall. 

For Huffor, the most attractive 

subjects are history and the life 

sciences. 

“Language Arts is so easy,” she 

remarked. She said she does a lot 

of reading and wants to be a pediatrician. 

“I’m fortunate in having this 

class,” said Mancini. “They’re 

strong academically, but they’re 

14-year-olds.” 

“I can be relaxed with them,” 

she said. 

Summing up the reason she 

does so well, Brock said: “I don’t 

like to fail.” 

“Amber is determined,” added 

Mancini. “Mike is laid back. 

“I’m somewhat of a perfectionist,” 

Amber acknowledged. 

Mancini reflected on the growth 

of participation in the St. John’s 

competition. 

“Four years ago,” she said, ‘I 

had six students [entering the 

contest]. This year it’s 36.” 

“You get to talk with friends on 

the bus and eat cookies there,” 

Brock pointed to two of the 

perquisites of competing in math. 

“Sixty-five eighth-graders out of 

200 take algebra I or II,” Mancini 

said. “And 25 seventh-graders take 

Algebra I.”

A water turbine, which will produce up to 50 kilowatts of electricity, will be 

located in the same location under the Whitin Mill (lower left corner of photo) 

as the original was in the early 19th century. 

Dennis Rice reveals an internal section of Alternatives’ geothermal climate control system. 

Alternative energy included in Alternatives’ mill project 

MILL 


million of which is being paid for via an 

almost-completed capital campaign — the 

refurbished Whitin Mill also includes a riverfront 

community plaza, space for local 

artists, client residences and a performance 

center. Plans also call for an eatery to be 

located on site. 

The most far-reaching component of the 

project, however, combines the mill’s grand 

history with state-of-the-art technology: In an 

effort to become energy-self-sufficient and 

environmentally friendly, Alternatives has 

gone alternative, so to speak. A renewable 

energy system that combines solar, geothermal 

and water power is expected to make the 

complex completely self-reliant as soon as a 

hydroelectric turbine is installed at the mill. 

Activation of the hydropower system has 

been delayed while Alternatives waits for 

government approval, according to Rice. 

“We will have to raise the water of the 

dam, which effects things, but it will be put in 

this summer,” he said. 

The turbine installation is being paid for 

with a $324,000 grant Alternatives secured 

from the state’s Renewable Energy Trust. 

The turbine, which will produce up to 50 kilowatts 

of electricity, will be located in the 

same location under the building where a 

more primitive form of hydropower created 

a manufacturing empire two centuries ago. 

“Once the turbine is installed, 88 percent of 

our electricity needs and 100 percent of our 

heating and cooling needs will be met,” Rice 

said. 

In the meantime, 32 photovoltaic panels on 

the roof of the administration building are 

already providing 5 percent of Alternatives’ 

energy needs. In addition, five geothermal 

wells that were drilled up to 1,500 feet under 

the parking lot and plaza utilize constant 55- 

degree temperatures at that depth to provide 

seasonal climate control. The wells circulate 

water into heat pumps that cool in the summer 

and heat in the winter. 

“Every room has a heat exchange unit,” 

Rice said. “It’s basically just a matter of circulating 

the water.” 

The geothermal project cost $307,100. 

Nonetheless, Alternatives’ entire alternative 

energy system is expected to pay for itself 

over time. 

Rice explained the renewable energy project 

would also provide environmental benefits, 

reducing the agency’s carbon footprint 

by more than 25 percent over the next two 

years. 

Alternatives is also exploring converting 

the heat created by the asphalt parking lot 

into electrical power. The agency is working 

in conjunction with Worcester Polytechnic 

Institute to develop what could become the 

first such pilot program in the state. 

“It would be like a huge photovoltaic 

panel,” Rice said. “If it happens, we would be 

making more electricity than we could use. 

We would sell it back to the grid.” 

In recognition of the renewable energy 

project, Worcester Business Journal honored 


Alternatives with a Central Mass. Green 

Award on May 21. 

Rice described the Whitin Mill project as a 

way to give back to a community that has 

supported Alternatives since 1976. 

“By taking a leadership role in being 

green, in historic preservation, in supporting 

the arts, we want to be seen as supporting a 

community that provides opportunities to 

our clients,” he said. “We see this as a reciprocal 

approach to engage the community.” 

The grand opening weekend at 

Alternatives will kick off at 7 p.m., Thursday, 

May 29 with a concert by the Claflin Hill 

Brass Quintet and Blackstone Valley 

Community Chorus on the plaza. 

In addition to the ribbon cutting ceremony 

on May 30, awards will be handed out at 1 

p.m. to local middle school students who participated 

in the “Going Green in the 

Blackstone Valley” poster contest. 

At 7 p.m., there will be a screening of 


left to right: The historic Whitin Mill gears overlooking the dam on the Mumford 

River. Solar panels on the roof of Alternatives’ main office building. 

“Front Wards, Back Wards,” a PBS documentary 

about the history of Fernald State 

School. A panel discussion will follow. 

On Saturday, May 31, Alternatives will host 

its annual Valley Friendship Tour.

Berkowicz is named Northbridge’s ‘Unsung Heroine’ 



NORTHBRIDGE — Carol Berkowicz, of 

Hillside Lane, balances her cyberspace technical 

know-how with a hands-on approach to 

improving society. 

For her many contributions to causes 

throughout Massachusetts, Berkowicz has 

been named one of the state’s 287 

“Community Unsung Heroines” of 2008. 

As such, she also represents Northbridge. 

She was honored along with 286 other 

“Unsung Heroines” May 14 at the 

Massachusetts State House. The 

Massachusetts Commission on the Status of 

Women (MCSW) supported the project. 

“Congratulations to her,” said Town 

Manager Theodore Kozak. “She’s a real asset 

for the state and the community and I hope 

she will continue to prosper in her endeavors 

on behalf of both.” 

Berkowicz attended Blackstone-Millville 

Regional High School and obtained a bachelor’s 

degree from the University of 

Massachusetts at Amherst, where she 

majored in education. She also studied computer 

science and program management at 

Central New England College. 

She taught elementary school for two years 

after college. 

“I saw what was going on with computers,” 

she said, “and I changed my mind [about 

teaching].” 

Berkowicz has worked for the Computer 

Science Corp. five years. Before that she was 

employed at EMC and Data General. 

“I telecommunicate,” she said. “It saves me 

a lot of gas. It’s an hour and a half to 

Waltham. 

Berkowicz is active on the Northbridge 

Democratic Town Committee and helped 

found the South Worcester County chapter of 

the Progressive Democrats in Massachusetts 

organization. 

“We started it a year ago in Webster,” 

Berkowicz explained. “We meet quarterly. We 

pick out issues we want to work on and bills 

we want to [support].” 

A member of the Duval Patrick Committee, 

she said she and others are trying to get information 

out to communities about bills and 

NORTHBRIDGE — In the fall of 2007, the Whitin Community 

Center (WCC) was awarded a matching grant of $20,000 from 

Fallon Community Health Plan’s Community Benefits Program 

for a new Youth Outreach program called BOOST. 

Through the Whitin Community Center’s Annual Fund Drive in 

the winter, the WCC was able to raise the matching $20,000 through 

generous donations from individuals in the community. 

The BOOST program is a new, pilot program, designed to 

address the needs of at-risk youth ages 12-17. The first session was 

held this spring. BOOST incorporates fitness and nutrition 

through the use of games, music, sports, yoga, and other activities. 

This program also addresses making healthy and informed choices 

in partnership with Family Continuity Programming of 


Carol Berkowicz has been named an “Unsung Heroine” by the state’s Commission on the Status of Women. 

also about activities of the governor, the 

House and the Senate. 

She said she sends out information to one 

person in each town of Southern Worcester 

County and then they send the information to 

others, and so on for a geometric progression. 

Berkowicz has organized several peace rallies 

over the past few years, some of them at 

Plummer’s Corner, the intersection of Route 

122 and Church Street. 

“I’ve supported Barack Obama for president 

ever since I saw him at the 2004 Democratic 

Convention in Boston,” Berkowicz said. “I 

believe he’s honest, down to earth, and speaks 

the truth. I think he has good ideas for the 

country.” 

Berkowicz also thinks Obama has brought a 

lot of youth in to vote at primaries. She thinks 

they will stay involved over the long term. 

Berkowicz has worked at voter registration 

in cities, including in New Hampshire. 

She said she is “a big advocate of patients’ 

rights in nursing homes. I’m interested in 

how they care for the people.” 

WCC BOOST graduates six 

Whitinsville. 

On May 1, six youths graduated from the first session of BOOST: 

Alex Mailhiot, of Douglas, Darien Masterson, of Whitinsville, 

Brian Figueroa, of Whitinsville, Walter Fernandez, 

of Northbridge, Joe Boulette, of Whitinsville, and Ezekiel DeLeon, 

of Northbridge. 

These elite six finished 10 weeks and 40 hours worth of programming. 

They will be given a free one-year membership to the 

Whitin Community Center as a result. They will also be invited 

back to the next session of the BOOST program in the role of 

group leaders. 

“These youth have worked 

hard to learn the importance of 

Jay Gilchrist, of the Milford Democratic 

Town Committee, nominated Berkowicz with 

more than a little enthusiasm. 

“She’s been a political activist for years,” 

Gilchrist said of Berkowicz. “Her father was a 

union man and she grew up with that background.” 

He was impressed with the extent of the e- 

mail list Berkowicz maintains. 

“And she knows where anyone is [at a given 

time],” he said. 

People easily congregate around her, 

Gilchrist said. “So she can mobilize people in 

ever-increasing numbers because she is so 

well-informed,” he said. 

“Carol often speaks about how politics 

affect us now,” he added. 

He said Berkowicz is “willing to work alone, 

but doesn’t have to — she always finds ways to 

energize a large group of volunteers to work 

with her.” 

Gilchrist admired the way Berkowicz has 

cared for her mother and a sister. 

He described Berkowicz as “a ringleader of 

activity” in the best sense. 

“I’ve known Carol for several years now,” 

said Gilchrist in his nominating letter to the 

Massachusetts Commission on the Status of 

Women. “And I’m continually impressed with 

her determination in overcoming obstacles 

with the endurance of a marathoner.” 

“All of us have the challenge of staying on 

our feet as companies lay off employees and 

you have to scramble to start over,” Gilchrist 

said of her. “Mission accomplished.” 

“All of us have an obligation to be politically 

informed citizens,” he said. “Many are. 

Carol is at the top of the list…” 

“Many take on the duty to actively support 

our democracy — to really know what our representatives 

are involved with and get 

involved in the many volunteer tasks that get 

the right people elected and support their legislative 

efforts that truly and responsibly benefit 

the many over the few,” Gilchrist declared. 

“Massachusetts women have always been in 

the forefront of advancing the status of 

women,” said the MCSW. “Today thousands of 

women across the Commonwealth perform 

unheralded acts of kindness on a daily basis 

that make our neighborhoods, our cities and 

our towns better places to live.” 

fitness, nutrition, and appropriate behavior in their lives. We 

look forward to watching them grow as role models for their 

peers,” said Katie Lloyd-Evanski, WCC wellness director 

and BOOST instructor. 

The next sessions of BOOST are June 23 to July 24 and July 28 to 

Aug. 28. Each session in the summer is five weeks long and 

participants will attend Monday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 

1 p.m. each week. 

Please contact Lloyd-Evanski at (508) 234-8184 for additional 

information. There is no fee for this program.

FAMILY TIES 

TAFT STUDENTS EXPLORE 

ANCESTRY WITH SONG AND DANCE 

BY ANDY LEVIN 


UXBRIDGE — Second-graders connected 

with their roots last week. 

Students combined song, dance, art, food 

and history at the Taft School International 

Fair held Friday, May 16. 

Parents crowded into the gymnasium to 

watch one of two mid-morning performances 

of “All Around the World,” then toured 

the hallways to view student art projects 

and taste traditional foods. 

“Oh, my goodness, they are having a wonderful 

time,” Taft School Principal Paula 

Montesi said of the kids’ culmination of 

months’ worth of research and rehearsal. 

“They perform it, and so it enhances their 

learning.” 

Second-grade teacher Stephanie Davis 

came up with the idea for the International 

Fair six years ago and has since served as 

the event’s coordinator. Students 

researched a branch of their ancestral heritage, 

presented an oral report and practiced 

song and dance routines for hours 

with physical education teacher Bonnie 

Dimmick and music director Gretchen 

D’Andrea.

Ireland, Scotland, China, Thailand, 

Africa, France and Canada were some of 

the cultures students studied, according to 

Davis. 

“It’s truly an interdisciplinary unit,” she 

said. “We have music, the arts and culture 

all represented.” 

Including several high school students 

who helped the second-graders with their

about 200 youngsters were involved in the 

program. 

“They thrive — they get so excited about 

it,” said Judy Lanoue, a food services assistant 

who helped coordinate the 

International Fair. “It runs the gamut, from 

Special Needs to Gifted and Talented students. 

They live it, so they learn more about

SPORTS 

Hockey team ‘brewin’ up winning formula 

GROUP OF FRIENDS FORMS NUCLEUS OF LOCAL SQUAD 

BY JOHN RADZINSKI 

SPORTS STAFF WRITER 

Very quietly, a group of 

hockey players from the 

Blackstone Valley are building 

a dynasty. 

They call themselves the 

Brewins, and this past April, 

the team, comprised of players 

from Uxbridge, 

Whitinsville, Auburn and 

Hudson took home the 

CAN/AM Challenge Cup in 

Lake Placid, N.Y. The team 

won its second cup in three 

years after winning the tournament 

in 2006, and then 

placing third in ’07. 

One of the players from 

the team is Tim Tabor, a resident 

of Uxbridge who 

makes horseshoes by day, 

but is known by his alter ego, 

“Mr. Assist,” by night. Or 

you can call him by his more 

formal title, the Brewins’ 

team captain. 

Tabor, who plays right 

wing, leads a team of 

Central Massachusetts residents, 

including starters 

Jason Willett of Auburn, 

Harry Grafton from 

Shrewsbury, Joe Capello 

from Whitinsville and Don 

Garcia of Hudson. Tabor 

and his band of players 

made their first appearance 

in Lake Placid in 1985, and 

with just a few changes 

every year, Tabor and the 

same basic core of longtime 

friends have been back to the 

CAN/AM Challenge Cup 

every year since. 

“It’s been a core group of 

us that started the team. 

There’s 15 or 16 of us that 

have stuck together for some 

time. We’re a close-knit 

group and we do everything 

together, like play golf, 

watch Red Sox games, etc.,” 

said Tabor. 

The Brewins are part of a 

21-plus league that reaches 

as far out as Ontario and 

Pennsylvania. All told, there 

are approximately 60 teams, 

according to Tabor, that participate 

in the cup tournament. 

Although most of the players 

of the Brew Crew are 

now in their 40s, what they 

may lack in athleticism they 

had in their 20s and teens, 

they more than make up for 

in teamwork and moxie. 

“We’ve played together for 

a long time and we know 

each other so well. We know 

where we’re going to be on 

the ice at all times,” said 

Tabor. “Younger teams see 

we’re all in our 40s and they 

think they can beat us, but 

then we say we’re open to 

any challenge on the ice.” 

Certainly, their actions 

speak as loud as their words. 

In 2007, as reigning champions 

of the CAN/AM 

Challenge, the Brewins 

returned home with a 

bronze medal and vowed that 

2008 would be different. It 

was either gold or bust. 

The Brewins didn’t just 

win gold, they dominated. In 

their four-game playoff run, 

they outscored their opponents 

by a combined 21-6, 

including a 3-0 shutout of 

their opponent, the 

Wannabes, in the championship 

game. 

Their goalkeeper, Kary 

Zate, was phenomenal, 

Tabor says. He has posted a 

1.5 GAA in the tournament 

and has been a pivotal key to 

success since being anointed 

goalie last season. Zate had 

big shoes — or skates, as the 

case may be — to fill. Their 

previous goalie, Rory 

Hewett, retired after winning 

gold in 2006. 

“In the gold medal game, 

we went up 3-0 and with Zate 

in the net, we knew we’d 

win,” said Tabor. 

Part of the thrill of winning 

the tournament lies in 

the venue, the same arena in 

which the 1980 USA hockey 

team upset the Russians. 

The arena, which was made 

famous by coach Herb 

Brooks and the so-called 

“Miracle on Ice,” has given 

goose bumps to Tabor every 

time he has stepped out onto 

the surface. 

As an homage to that infamous 

game, Tabor, who was 

standing atop the first place 

step on the podium about to 

accept his gold medal, gestured 

to his teammates to all 

stand on the platform with 

him, just as Mike Eruzione 

did 28 years ago in the same 

arena. For Tabor, it was one 

of the more unforgettable 

moments of the tournament. 

Along with holding down a 

full-time job and playing for 

the Brewins, Tabor is also 

organizer for “Hockey Night 

in Auburn,” a five-team 

league that plays its games 

at Horgan Arena in Auburn. 

As the founder and operator 

of the league for the past 

three years, Tabor is responsible 

for scheduling, directing 

referees, and organizing 

rosters. 

“It’s a lot of work, but I get 

a little extra money, and even 

more than that it’s fun and 

it’s a fantastic night,” said 

Tabor. 

The Brewins play regularly 

in the New England 

Senior Hockey League, 

which meets at the New 

England Sports Center. For

Valley Tech says goodbye to 222 

VALLEY TECH 


quality, competency-liked vocational-technical 

education. Your actions 

over the past four years have illustrated 

compellingly that a vocational-technical 

enterprise like Valley 

Tech must strive to be mentioned in 

the same breath as top-tier high 

schools from anywhere.” 

By building associations, 

Fitzpatrick told the graduates, “you 

can foster corrective action on some 

of the urgent imperatives which 

confront business and society 

today.” 

For today more than ever, he said, 

“we need connections and ties of 

human understanding and compassion. 

We are a world fraught with 

ethnic and religious conflict. We 

must work together to discover new 

strategies and solutions.” 

But graduation ceremonies, while 

joyous, can also be sad, he said. 

Because a class that has become an 

integral part of school life is leaving. 

“Over the next several years,” he 

said, “you will face new challenges 

and obstacles, but you have proven 

you know what it means to succeed. 

You have mastered sophisticated 

vocational-technical skill sets and 

demonstrated an ability to excel in 

diverse academic environments.” 

Fitzpatrick urged the class members, 

in whichever paths they 

choose, “to do so with the confidence 

and determination which originally 

brought you to Valley Tech. 

He said those enrolling in college 

need to devise a short and long-term 

educational and financial plan. 

“The present college non-completion 

rate across our country is atrocious,” 

he said. “Far more students 

drop out than finish.” 

“Despite the many challenges and 

obstacles you will face over the next 

several years,” he continued, “you 

have mastered your vocational-technical 

competencies and you have 

demonstrated your ability to excel 

in academic settings.” 

“Henry David Thoreau once said: 

‘Do not worry if you have built your 

castles in the air. They are where 

they should be. Now put the foundations 

under them.’” 

“You know exactly what he meant 

because you experienced firstthand 

what it is like to build something 

special right here at Valley Tech,” 

Fitzpatrck said, referring to the 

recent building and enrollment 

expansion. 

“However,” he added, “the bricks 

and concrete are not what make the 

school. The return on that investment 

comes from the growth of our 

students and their achievements.” 

“This year,” he said, “Valley Tech 

continued to gain state and national 

recognition as a model school system.” 

“That acclaim is only deserved 

because your distinct capabilities 

put you above so many of your 

peers,” Fitzpatrick said, “and if you 

continue to cultivate those talents, 

you will find your future transition 

into the competitive global workforce 

environment a seamless one.” 

Fitzpatrick paid tribute to the 

football team, led by tri-captains 

Aron Sweder, Bobby Pizzarelli and 

Juan De Leon, which won the 

school’s first Super Bowl championship. 

And he lauded the girls’ volleyball 

team, led by Amanda Mahar, Erica 

Webster and Kaitlin Henault. The 

team finished the regular season at 

20-0 and won two more matches to 

capture a state vocational title. 

Fitzpatrick also touted the performances 

of students in academic 

matters, too. 

“In Math League meets, as delegates 

to the model United Nations, 

in speech contests, and in Skills 

USA competitions,” he noted, “you 

have set yourselves apart… Kaitlin 

Henault and Timothy Lapan have 

earned the right to represent Valley 

Tech and Massachusetts at the 

Skills USA National 

Championships in Kansas City in 

late June… We wish them the best of 

luck in their grand finale as Valley 

tech students.” 

He then asked those graduates 

who have enlisted in the Armed 

Forces or who seek military training 

to stand. 

“In these most uncertain times,” 

Fitzpatrick said, “when you may be 

called overseas, we collectively 

thank you in advance for your service 

to this country. Please be safe 

and Godspeed.” 

“Remember what American poet 

Maya Angelou said: ‘You can only 

become truly accomplished at something 

you love. Don’t make money 

your goal. Instead, pursue the things 

you love doing, and then do them so 

well that people can’t take their eyes 

off you.” 

One of the things Fitzpatrick likes 

to do is to introduce to his student 

body role models whose backgrounds 

are highly unusual, colorful, 

individualistic and yet which 

ultimately lead to community service. 

Indeed, Rep. George Peterson, R- 

Grafton, House Minority Whip, did 

a lot of different, interesting things 

before he became a state representative. 

He began by talking about his 

father, who went right into the Air 

Force after graduating from high 

school during World War II. He later 

worked at Norton a couple of years, 

then created several patents for 

loom works at Crompton Knowles. 

At Bay State Abrasives, his father 

created more than a dozen patents 

for grinding wheels. After 35 years 

there, he retired as a senior engineer. 

“When he was met with a challenge,” 

Peterson said of his father, 

“he would learn how to master new 

technologies or techniques. Among 

them were a blast furnace, a wood 

steamer, silk screen printing, lobster 

tanks and biological filters (he 

built for son George), and Ferro 

Cement Boats (hand spot welder).” 

Peterson himself graduated from 

Grafton High School, then studied 

arbor culture at the Stockbridge 

School at UMass Amherst. 

He was drafted into the Army during 

the Vietnam era. After that, he 

became a commercial fisherman. 

He sold seafood from the back of a 

truck. His first year he grossed 

$20,000. Several years later he did 

$500,000 worth of business. Then he 

managed a retail hardware store. 

Finally, he became a heavy equipment 

operator before he became a 

state representative. 

Everything he has ever done, he 

said, he has been able to use as a representative. 

“The days of working in one 

career or for one employer [all your 

life] are probably gone,” he said. 

“With technology changing so fast, 

you will need to change career paths 

several times during your lifetime.” 

“The best advice I can give to 

you,” Peterson said, “is always be 

ready to learn, do the best you can 

with whatever you are doing, and 

sometimes take a chance on a new 

idea that comes tour way.” 

Valedictorian Brittany Kinhart, of 

Milford, who concentrated in 

Business Technology and will 

attend Westfield State College, drew 

a picture of the changes in perceptions 

of vocational education over 

the years. 

“Twenty years ago,” she said, “if 

you were to ask someone what they 

thought a vocational-technical 

school was, they would probably 

have said it is somewhere for students 

who were falsely labeled as 

underachievers.” 

“Today,” Kinhart said, “that is 

rarely the case. Now voke-tech 

schools have students from a variety 

of races, religions and ethnic backgrounds. 

Both females and males 

now compete to be admitted to a 

voke-tech school. Voke-tech schools 

are now a place for students who 

take their education seriously.” 

“Over the past three years,” she 

said, “60 to 70 percent of Valley Tech 

grads have stated their post-graduate 

plans include college.” 

“I think that I’m ready to be leaving 

high school,” said Student 

Council President Ethan Connors, 

of Uxbridge. “I know part of me is 

excited and part of me is unsure, 

but either way, I know I’m ready. I’m 

not going to forget what I learned at 

Blackstone Valley Tech, the experiences 

I’ve had, the people I’ve met, 

or the friends I’ve made. I’m going to 

take those things with me. I may be 

moving forward today, but I’m not 

moving away. This place, the people 

here, I will always have that. That 

feeling is not ever going to graduate.” 

Connors is enrolled at Worcester 

Polytechnic Institute, but is also a 

candidate for the U.S. Naval 

Academy. 

Nicholas Ushinski, a drafting student 

from Millbury who was president 

of the National Honor Society, 

integrated at least 20 song titles 

from The Red Hot Chili Peppers 

Band into his speech. 

“Whatever you do,” Ushankski 

urged each of his classmates, “don’t 

become a useless work drone at your 

job or at college.” 

“Hang out with friends at a ‘coffee 

shop,’ go hiking through the 

‘Backwoods,’ or go step on the ‘Wet 

Sand’ at the beach — do something 

to break the normal day,” he exhorted, 

using song titles from his 

favorite band, The Hot Chili 

Peppers. 

If you don’t, he more or less told 

them, “not only will people think 

you’re boring, but you’ll think 

you’re boring, and then you’re going 

to hate what you do even if you are 

working ‘Out in L.A.’ Do something 

for the rest of your life that will 

make you look forward to every day. 

Join a theater group and do some 

acting; form a basketball team with 

some of your friends to meet after 

work. ‘Throw away Your Television’ 

so you’re not at home all day. Do 

something so you don’t become a 

drone because that is not what the 

BVT class of ’08 is about.” 

Ushanski will attend UMass 

Dartmouth in the fall to major in 

mechanical engineering. 

Class President Lauren Gray of 

Uxbridge, a Cosmetology major at 

Valley Tech, will attend 

Bridgewater State College in the 

fall. 

“This year,” she said, “we’ve gotten 

further in our relationship as a 

class by going a little off the radar, 

rather than coming together at the 

‘planned’ events.” 

“With our early morning cookouts 

and parking lot barricades,” 

she said, “who knew a little rebellion 

could make us this close?” 

Neither Edward Elgar in 1901, 

when he first conducted his then 

new composition “Pomp and 

Circumstance,” nor Theodore 

Roosevelt, when he gave his 1910 

“Man in the Arena” speech, could 

have foreseen how popular the composition 

and speech would become 

to high school seniors throughout 

America for the next century. But 

there is such a thing as universal 

taste for excellence, and both men 

have earned their fame. 

Lauren Gray quoted Roosevelt to 

good effect. 

“Yes,” she echoed Roosevelt, “we 

will experience our fair share of 

failure. We will stumble, and we will 

look back and realize we could have 

done better, but our skin will have 

felt the dust and sweat, especially in 

those more physical shops, and our 

essence will have withstood the cruelty 

of the social stadium.” 

‘The critics will have their judgments, 

but not a cause. They will 

have had no failures, but they will 

have also had no successes. We will 

have devotions they will never 

know.” 

“Our time in high school has been 

remarkable,” Gray said, “and I 

would like to think we’ve all ‘dared 

greatly.’” 

“We’ve all wanted to prove to ourselves 

we’ve taken those steps into 

the arena and deserved what we 

have achieved so far in our lives,” 

she concluded. “We aren’t critics, we 

are champions, and we are the graduating 

Class of 2008.” 

But the Class of 2008 had better 

not rest on its laurels. 

A sophomore, Debora Dias, 

brought down the house with her 

unique rendition of the National 

Anthem. 

Principal Richard Brennan introduced 

each speaker, and announced 

a number of achievements by the 

graduating class. School Committee 

Chairman Michael Peterson presented 

the diplomas, and each student 

shook hands with Fitzpatrick 

and posed for an official photograph 

with the long-time school director.

Memorial 

Day 

Memorial Day is a United 

States public holiday that takes 

place on the last Monday of 

May. It was formerly known as 

Decoration Day. This holiday commemorates 

U.S. men and women who 

died in military service for their country. It 

began first to honor Union soldiers who 

died during the American Civil War. After 

World War I, it expanded to include those 

who died in any war or military action. 

Today, many Americans use Memorial Day weekend 

to also honor family members who have passed away. 

Many people observe this holiday by visiting cemeteries and 

memorials. A National Moment of Remembrance takes place at 3 

PM. Another tradition is to fly the U.S. Flag at half-staff from 

dawn until noon local time. 

Memorial Day was originally observed on May 30, and some 

advocate returning to this fixed date. However, many other 

Americans enjoy the guaranteed three-day weekend that comes 

with observing the holiday on a Monday. Memorial Day is popularly 

viewed as the unofficial beginning of summer in the United 

States, while Labor Day is considered the unofficial end of the 

season. 

Remembering all who served 

with patriotism and pride...

After the election, Brouillette 

noted the result was that the

“I will continue to push issues

She said one example of the 

importance of diversity is in 

“how we look at development

NORTHBRIDGE — The 

Whitinsville Water Company 

(WWC) has commenced flushing of 

water mains and hydrants. The 

mains and hydrants are flushed 

each year to remove the accumulated 

sediment on the inside of the 

mains and to ensure that the 

hydrants are working properly. It 

will take approximately six weeks 

to complete the flushing. The 

majority of work will take place 

from 10:30 p.m. through 6 a.m. 

During the flushing, you may 

notice discolored water or air in 

the lines. The degree of discoloration 

and amount of air will be 

affected by the street where you 

live. The discoloration will go 

away shortly after the flushing. 

The material that causes the discoloration 

is iron, manganese and 

sediment that are naturally occurring 

in the water. These materials 

are always in the water mains but 

become suspended during the 

flushing process. Although the 

discoloration is not aesthetically 

pleasing, there is no harm to your 

health if the water is consumed 

when discolored. However, you 

may wish to always keep a container 

of water available for drinking 

purposes during the flushing 

process. 

If you notice the water is discolored, 

avoid doing laundry (especially 

white clothes) until the 

water clears. 

If there are any questions, please 

contact the office at (508) 234 -7358.

The end of this month marks the 

beginning of the growing season. 

Soon backyard gardens and farmer’s 

markets will be rich with the fresh scents 

and tastes of the season. From clusters of 

wild blueberries and lettuce sprouting 

from the ground, to swelling watermelons 

and bright red tomatoes ripening on the 

vine, gardener anticipate a bountiful crop 

of homegrown fruits and vegetables. But 

the area’s fresh produce isn’t only hailed 

for its extraordinary flavor. From fighting 

the effects of aging to relieving aches 

and pains, medical research proves fresh 

produce is a valuable weapon in the 

fight for good health. Read on for some 

fascinating food facts. 

• Watermelon: The Refreshing 

Health Food 

Watermelon is a staple of summertime 

cookouts and the popular fruit is packed 

full of some of the most important 

antioxidants in nature. In fact, recent 

research has shed new light on its potential 

health benefits. Watermelon is an 

excellent source of vitamin C and a very 

good source of vitamin A, notably through 

its concentration of beta-carotene. 

Watermelon also contains high concentrations 

of lycopene, an antioxidant that may 

help reduce the risks of cancer and other 

diseases. Moreover, lycopene gives watermelon 

its red color and in some cases, the 

redder the watermelon, the more lycopene 

it contains! Found only in select fruits and 

vegetables, lycopene is very effective at 

trapping cancer-promoting agents called 

free-oxygen radicals. In addition, watermelon 

is fat free, nutritionally low in 

calories and considered an ideal diet food! 

• Did you know? The watermelon is 

technically a vegetable, as it is a member of 

the cucumber and squash family. 

• Blueberries: King of Antioxidants 

Who can resist sprinkling blueberries over 

a bowl of morning cereal, or just popping a 

few fresh blueberries into your mouth? 

One of nature’s most amazing and 

powerful anti-oxidants, blueberries offer a 

variety of health benefits, from to lowering 

cholesterol to building up urinary tract 

health, improving vision and much more. 

Research conducted at the USDA center 

has found blueberries rank hands down 

number one in antioxidant activity! 

The blueberry’s secret weapon is its 

deep-blue pigment, which is a potent 

phytonutrient that acts as an antioxidant 

and anti-inflammatory. 

Research suggests that blueberries may 

reduce the build-up of the bad cholesterol 

that contributes to heart disease. And 

according to a report in the New England 

Journal of Medicine, blueberries help 

prevent infections in the urinary tract in 

much the same way that cranberries do. 

Research reveals blueberries may also 

reduce the build up of so called ‘bad’ 

cholesterol that contributes to 

cardiovascular disease and stroke, 

There are ongoing studies that are finding 

that blueberries can help memory, 

concentration and co-ordination. 

Blueberries can also help relieve both 

diarrhoea and constipation because they 

are rich in the soluble fiber pectin. What 

more could you ask for? 

• Did you know? Wild blueberries 

contain more antioxidants that cultivated 

blueberries. 

• Tomatoes: The Garden’s Pharmacy 

Love tomatoes? 

Here are 

TAKE 

some more 

THE 

great reasons 

HINT to enjoy the 

ripe, red fruit! 

KAREN Researchers 

TRAINOR have discovered 

tomatoes 

may actually 

have the same effect that aspirin has on 

circulation. Studies in Scotland revealed 

tomatoes may help reduce circulatory 

problems in the heart, brain and 

elsewhere. It seems tomatoes contain a 

powerful substance that prevents blood 

clots from forming. The scientists call it 

the “tomato factor.” It interferes with the 

clumping of platelets in the blood, 

reducing the risk of clot formation in 

blood vessels. The “tomato factor” is found 

in the yellow jelly surrounding the tomato 

seeds. In one study, platelet activity was 

reduced by more than 70 percent with only 

four tomatoes! Tomatoes are another deliciously 

rich source of the powerful 

antioxidant lycopene. 

Lycopene has been found to also lower the 

risk of colon cancer and stomach cancer, 

and inhibits the growth of other types of 

cancer cells. And research shows tomatoes 

may also help to reduce the risk of heart 

disease. Tomatoes are a good source of 

potassium, niacin, vitamin B6, and folate. 

As if all this isn’t enough, tomatoes are 

rich in Vitamin C, which helps the body to 

produce collagen, an important protein 

skin, scar tissue, tendons, ligaments, and 

blood vessels. And the Vitamin K, found in 

tomatoes helps to maintain healthy bones. 

• Did you know? You should seek out the 

reddest tomatoes, which indicates 

the highest amounts of beta-carotene 

and lycopene.. 

• Broccoli: Fiber-Rich Food 

There was a reason mom told you to finish 

all the broccoli on your plate. The green 

vegetable is rich in fiber, carotenoids, and 

vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin K. Due 

to it’s high levels of vitamin C, beta 

carotene, and fiber, broccoli is a powerful 

antioxidant that is believed to prevent 

damage to cells caused by free radicals, 

which are believed to be a factor in 

cancers, Alzheimer’s disease, heart 

disease, arthritis, and in the aging 

process itself, 

Additional research reveals Broccoli 

contains sulforaphane, a substance that 

has been shown in animal studies to 

dramatically reduce the number, size, and 

reproduction of malignant tumors, as well 

as delay the onset of these tumors. In fact 

broccoli has been named the food most 

likely to prevent colon cancer! Want more? 

The high fiber content of Broccoli is also 

believed to be benefit those with diabetes. 

And broccoli also has as much calcium 

as milk, a hefty weapon for those at risk 

for osteoporosis. 

• Did you know? The word broccoli 

comes from the Italian “brocco” meaning 

arm branch.

NEWS BRIEFS 

WCC BOOST graduates six 

NORTHBRIDGE — In the fall of 2007, the 

Whitin Community Center (WCC) was awarded 

a matching grant of $20,000 from Fallon 

Community Health Plan’s Community 

Benefits Program for a new Youth Outreach 

program called BOOST. 

Through the Whitin Community Center’s 

Annual Fund Drive in the winter, the WCC 

was able to raise the matching $20,000 through 

generous donations from individuals in 

the community. 

The BOOST program is a new, pilot 

program, designed to address the needs of 

at-risk youth ages 12-17. The first session was 

held this spring. BOOST incorporates fitness 

and nutrition through the use of games, 

music, sports, yoga, and other activities. This 

program also addresses making healthy and 

informed choices in partnership with Family 

Continuity Programming of Whitinsville. 

On May 1, six youths graduated from the 

first session of BOOST: Alex Mailhiot, 

of Douglas, Darien Masterson, of 

Whitinsville, Brian Figueroa, of Whitinsville, 

Walter Fernandez, of Northbridge, Joe 

Boulette, of Whitinsville, and Ezekiel 

DeLeon, of Northbridge. 

These elite six finished 10 weeks and 40 

hours worth of programming. They will be 

given a free one-year membership to 

the Whitin Community Center as a result. 

They will also be invited back to the next 

session of the BOOST program in the role of 

group leaders. 

“These youth have worked hard to learn the 

importance of fitness, nutrition, and appropriate 

behavior in their lives. 

We look forward 

to watching them grow as role models 

for their peers,” said Katie Lloyd-Evanski, 

WCC wellness director and BOOST instructor. 

The next sessions of BOOST are June 23 to 

July 24 and July 28 to Aug. 28. Each session in 

the summer is five weeks long and participants 

will attend Monday to Thursday from 11 

a.m. to 1 p.m. each week. 

Please contact Lloyd-Evanski at (508) 234- 

8184 for additional information. There is no 

fee for this program. 

Authors to discuss 

Acadian-inspired novel 

REGION — Authors Ann Davidson and 

Terry Thibodeaux will discuss and sign 

copies of their book “Catherine’s Cadeau” 

at 7 p.m., Tuesday, June 10, at the Upton 

Senior Center. 

Do you know anyone who is a LeBlanc, 

Bourque, Belliveau or Cormier? 

Perhaps one of these is your own last name. 

If it is, you are most likely of Acadian descent, 

and probably are already very familiar with 

the Acadians — your ancestors who came 

from the marshlands of western France to the 

“New World” and settled the coastal areas 

of the Canadian Maritimes in what was 

then Acadia. 

Over several generations their population 

grew and their culture thrived, until one of 

the tragic events of early North American 

history ripped them from their homes in 1755: 

Le Grand Derangment (the Deportation 

Of the Acadians). 

That fall, thousands of Acadians were summoned 

to their village and declared prisoners 

of the British Crown. After they gathered 

their own harvest to feed the soldiers who captured 

them, those who hdestroyed in late 

autumn storms. Still others stopped at ports 

down the east coast of the British colonies. 

Exiles that landed in overcrowded ships in 

Boston Harbor were unloaded sick and destitute. 

Documents show that they were divided 

up and sent to many counties in 

Massachusetts. In Worcester County, 

Acadians appeared in the towns of Upton, 

Sutton, Uxbridge, Grafton, Oxford, Mendon 

and Westboro during the fall of 1755. 

“Catherine’s Cadeau” tells the story of 

Monique LeBlanc, a young Cajun from 

Louisiana. Having studied the history of her 

Acadian ancestors during her last term at 

Louisiana State University, she is invited to go 

to Nova Scotia with her cousin Michelle and 

Michelle’s new husband, Jacques. They are 

the Lafayette Duo and are to be the featured 

performers at Le Festival Acadien in Halifax. 

Monique decides to take a trip to the 

Annapolis Valley for a day. When she visits 

Grand-Pre Park that evening, she vanishes 

without a trace. Readers are taken with 

Monique on her journey back to the days 

before and during “Le Grand Derangment” of 

the Acadians, when they were forced into 

exile. Readers will also wonder, along with 

Monique’s friends and family, if 

return to the present alive. 

she will 

“Catherine’s Cadeau” is co-written by Ann 

Davidson and Terry Thibodeaux. Davidson, a 

native of the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia, 

has been a resident of Upton for over 25 years. 

Thibodeaux is a professor of communication 

at Sam Houston State University in 

Huntsville, Texas. 

Also speaking will be Bruce Caissie, of 

Northbridge, past president of the Acadian 

Cultural Society of Fitchburg. 

The Acadian Cultural Society has worked 

since 1984 to preserve Acadian history, culture, 

and genealogy, publishing a quarterly 

newsletter called “LeReveil Acadien.” (“The 

Acadian Awakening”) Information on the 

society can be viewed online at www.acadiancultural.org. 

Ladies Workout Express 

to host teens 

NORTHBRIDGE — According to the 

American Council on Exercise, the percentage 

of children and adolescents who are 

defined as overweight or obese has tripled 

since the early 1970s. 

This alarming rise in the overweight and 

obesity epidemic is due in part to the more 

modern society that we live in, but mostly 

because the problem has not been confronted 

where it starts: In the early years. 

Today, 15 percent of Americans ages 6-19 are 

clinically obese and another 15 percent are 

considered at risk of becoming obese. That is 

why Ladies Workout Express 30 Minute 

Interval Circuit Training Centers are kicking 

off their sixth annual FitTEEN® program. 

In five previous seasons of FitTEEN®, 

approximately 95,000 teenagers ages 13-17 

signed up all over the country for the program, 

allowing them to have access to a health 

club for the entire summer at no charge. 

Beginning June 1, teenagers will again be able 

to sign up to use Ladies Workout Express in 

Whitinsville free of charge until Sept. 1. 

The simplified, time-efficient workouts at 

Ladies Workout Express are specifically 

designed to meet the needs of today’s women 

wanting a straightforward way to fitness. 

Using only resistance training on a circuit of 

hydraulic machines and rest stations, this 30- 

minute express workout has been developed to 

get results, fast. 

Through easy access to fitness, an opportunity 

is created to confront these conditions 

and prevent unnecessary disease and disability 

that obesity brings about for a teen’s future. 

Through additional education and awareness, 

teens can be empowered to make healthy 

lifestyle choices. Taking action early on can 

have a profound effect on increasing the quality 

of life in young adults. 

“Our goal is simple,” says Nina Bedard, 

owner of Ladies Workout Express 

Whitinsville. “We want teens to have a place to 

go to begin what we hope will be a long and 

successful relationship with the health and fitness 

industry that will make them healthy, 

energetic and productive adults.” 

For more information on the FitTEEN® 

program, please contact Ladies Workout 

Express at (508) 234-0411. To take advantage of 

the offer, please be sure to bring along a parent 

or guardian for initial consent.

OLV SEQUELS 

UXBRIDGE — April vacation was a busy 

time for some students of Our Lady of the 

Valley Regional School. 

Participating in a library activity, these 

students chose a favorite book to read 

over vacation and then wrote a short sequel 

about what they thought might have 

happened in the next story. 

It was a fun way to exercise reading 

and writing skills and those who participated 

received certificates and a prize for 

each grade. 

WCC to hold theater auditions 

NORTHBRIDGE — Monique Boucher, 

director of Outreach for the Whitin 

Community Center, has announced that 

auditions for the Youth Outreach Program’s 

summer theatre production, “Saga of Dead 

Dog Gulch” by Joy Kurtz, will be held at the 

Rockdale Youth Center from 6-8 p.m. on 

Tuesday, June 3. 

The Rockdale Youth Center is located at 2219 

Providence Road in Rockdale. 

Rehearsals will then be held Monday through 

Wednesday evenings from 6-8 p.m. at the 

Rockdale Youth Center. The performance 

dates are scheduled for July 25 and 26. 

The Whitin Community Center’s free 

Summer Youth Theatre program exposes 

participants ages 8 and up to the theater arts, 

from beginning to end. The objective of this 

eight-week intensive, mini-program is to 

provide children from any town in the 

Blackstone Valley with an exciting opportunity 

to learn about the theater arts. The 

program is designed to expose children to the 

theatrical arts from all aspects, from acting to 

choreography, to promotion and set design. 

Each child who participates has to agree 

to the rehearsal schedule, as well as a 

behavioral contract. 

It is the hope of the Whitin Community 

Center that by providing this unique 

opportunity to explore the theatrical arts, all 

participating children may grow personally 

not only in self-confidence, but that they may 

also develop artistically, and socially while 

learning from positive role models. Prior 

theatre experience is not a requirement, and 

we enthusiastically invite newcomers. 

Anyone interested in sponsoring this 

production or volunteering to assist with 

production, set design, or promotion, 

is encouraged to contact Boucher at 

(508) 234-0272. 

The Whitin Community Center, the 

Blackstone Valley’s only full-service family 

recreational non-profit organization, initiated 

the Youth Outreach Program in 1996 in an 

effort to open the door to all children, independent 

of fee or membership, to enjoy the 

benefits of a weekly recreational program on 

Saturdays. That program has been expanded 

in the years since to include a Summer Youth 

Theatre Program, an after school Youth 

Center in Rockdale, the Mentoring 

Partnership, and the BOOST program. The 

goals of the Youth Outreach Program are to 

encourage children, ages 5-18, from all 

socio-economic backgrounds to play together, 

to develop friendships, to build self-worth, 

to develop a sense of fair play, team 

spirit and cooperation in a safe and 

supervised environment.

River Valley National Heritage Corridor 

announce the line up of Thursday Night 

Walkabouts for the summer season. 

Each Thursday this summer the park 

rangers or one of their volunteer partners 

will offer a free interpretive program somewhere

for residents and visitors to explore a part of 

history or the natural beauty of the 

Blackstone Valley.

“We really enjoy doing these Walkabouts 

because it gives us a chance to take people to 

some of the often overlooked jewels of the 

Blackstone Valley,” Ranger Kevin Klyberg 

explained. “Some of these tours are old 

favorites, but they give us a reason to do 

some more research and learn new stories to 

share about each special place.” 

All of the programs are on Thursday 

nights and are free. They begin at 6:30 p.m.

and forever. Sacred Heart of 

Jesus, pray for us. St. Jude, 

worker of miracles, pray for 

us. St. Jude, helper of the

PRAYER TO THE 

BLESSED VIRGIN 

(Never known to fail). Oh 

most beautiful flower of Mt. 

Carmel, fruitful vine, 

splendor of Heaven, Blessed 

Mother of the Son of God, 

Immaculate Virgin, assist me 

in this my necessity. Oh Star 

of the Sea, help me and 

show me herein, you are my 

mother, Oh Holy Mary, 

Mother of God, Queen of 

Heaven and Earth, I humbly 

beseech you from the bottom 

of my heart, succor me in 

this necessity. There are 

110 NOVENAS 

none that can withstand your 

call. Oh, show me herein, 

you are my mother. Oh, Mary 

conceived without sin, pray 

for us who have 

recourse to thee. (3 times) 

Holy Mary I place this cause 

in your hands (3 times). 

Sweet Mother I pray for this 

cause in your hands. (3 

times). Holy Spirit, resolve all 

problems, light all roads so 

that I can attain my goal. 

You gave me the divine gift 

to forgive and forget all evil 

against me in all instances of 

my life, you are with me. I 

want this short prayer to 

thank you for all things as 

you confirm once again that I 

never want to be separated 

from you even in spite of 

material things. I wish to be 

with you in eternal glory. 

Thank you for your mercy 

toward me and mine. The 

person must say this prayer 

three consecutive days. 

After three days the request 

will be granted. This prayer 

must be published after the 

prayer is granted. Thank you.

Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles an Alternative 

to New Cars When Times Are Tight 

BY KEITH GRIFFIN 

A certified pre-owned 2006 Audi A6 could be a strong alternative to a new car. 

Let’s take a break from new cars 

this week and look at almost-new 

cars or, as they’re commonly 

called nowadays, certified preowned. 

These are vehicles that 

meet strict requirements, go 

through an in-depth inspection, 

and are warrantied by the manufacturer. 

They are incredibly hot commodities 

as new cars have been 

priced out of the market for people 

as sub-prime loans have dried up 

for both homes and used cars. 

(Many people used to finance 

expensive vehicles with home 

equity loans.) But, there is some 

confusion out there about what 

constitutes certified pre-owned. So 

let me clear up some of the misconceptions. 

Let me start off by announcing 

that I have recently begun writing 

about used cars for About.com, 

which is owed by the New York 

Times. The website is 

usedcars.about.com and it contains 

information on all aspects of 

used cars from buying to selling to 

researching them to deals of the 

week. I hope you take a moment to 

stop by and maybe even register 

for the weekly newsletter. 

OK, now back to the main topic: 

certified pre-owned. These are 

vehicles that have been through a 

special inspection process by new 

dealers. (Manufacturers set the 

standards.) Certified pre-owneds 

come from a variety of places 

including lease programs, tradeins, 

and vehicle auctions. 

Typically, manufacturers allow 

vehicles that are 5 years old or 

newer with 60,000 miles or less to 

be certified if they pass inspection. 

(The number of inspection 

points can range from 115 for Ford 

to 300 for Audi.) Porsche sells certified 

pre-owneds up to 6 years old 

and 100,000 miles. Ford cuts off 

sales at 4 years and 50,000 miles. 

For luxury car makers, certified 

pre-owned can be the best way to 

keep their cars out among the public. 

Audi, for example, recently 

announced that its certified preowned 

sales were up 56.4 percent. 

It is the first manufacturer I know 

of that is lumping in its certified 

pre-owned sales with new car 

sales. In effect, companies are now 

taking credit twice for selling the 

same car. 

Certified pre-owned used cars -- 

when purchased properly -- are a 

great deal for you. Financing can 

be cheaper. The cars are typically 

in better shape and some manufacturers 

offer generous warranty 

protection. 

Once a used car gets its certified 

seal of approval, it gets an extended 

warranty and the dealer tacks 

on a higher price because the consumer 

gets perceived peace of 

mind. In effect, certified preowned 

can be defined as reconditioned 

new cars at less-than-new 

prices. 

The important thing to note is 

certified pre-owned vehicles are 

only sold by new car dealers. 

Independent car sellers may try to 

sell a vehicle as certified preowned, 

but these vehicles aren’t 

backed by manufacturers. Instead, 

these warranties are backed by 

insurance companies. These companies 

don’t make money by paying 

claims, so keep that in mind 

before buying what is supposedly 

a certified pre-owned vehicle from 

an independent car seller. 

There’s a company called 

IntelliChoice that annually ranks 

the top luxury and non-luxury certified 

pre-owned programs. 

Programs are rated on a set of criteria 

that consumers identify as 

having the most value, such as 

extended manufacturer warranties, 

title verification, certification 

inspection process and roadside 

assistance in addition to special 

financing and return 

exchange policies. 

Volvo tops the list for luxury preowned 

programs. Frankly, I’ve 

always thought Volvos a bit overpriced, 

so maybe that’s why 

they’re so popular as used vehicles. 

And, I wouldn’t buy a 

Volkswagen built in the last few 

years unless it had a strong warranty. 

The IntelliChoice survey for 

2008 points out Hyundai is ranked 

third after taking last place in 

2008. It’s no secret I’m a fan of 

Hyundai. So, I’m not surprised to 

see it doing so well. 

What’s important to remember 

about certified pre-owned used 

cars is they are just like any other 

used vehicle. You need to make 

sure a complete inspection is done 

by an independent mechanic. 

After all, the certification is really 

only as good as the dealership 

issuing it. The manufacturer 

backs the certified pre-owned 

vehicle, but you don’t want your 

car to be tied up in the garage for 

repairs – even if somebody else is 

paying for them. 

As I mentioned above, certified 

pre-owned cars are more expensive, 

but they can actually be less 

expensive because manufacturers 

will sometimes offer lower interest 

rates on the loans and you’re 

most likely not going to have to 

spend money on mechanical 

issues. 

Another way to save money on a 

certified pre-owned is not to buy 

the Carfax report. All manufacturers 

require these vehicle background 

reports be done as part of 

the certification process. 

Auto Review 

A certified pre-owned 2007 Honda Accord could be a good value, but you may have to look far and wide to find one.
