Switch Skate Park Rolling To Reality 

Osprey on Clipper City Rail Trail

IPSWICH – The dictionary of 

skateboarding terms defines “switch” 

as riding in the opposite direction 

than usual, in the opposite stance, 

while making it look normal. 

The word Switch is also a nickname 

for this town where the new Switch 

Rideable Sculpture Park is being 

built. 

That double entendre is typical of 

the creativity behind a new 5,000 

square-foot skate park that a group 

of grown-up skateboarders and 

entrepreneurial artists are building in 

Bialek Park near the park’s frontage 

on Linebrook Road. 

Using a $30,000 grant from 

the Essex County Community 

Foundation and the Barr Foundation, 

the builders – Alex Pechilis, T.J. 

Sadowski, Phil Todisco and Luke 

Butler – have begun constructing 

phase one of Switch. Phase two and 

three, which would add another 

10,000 square feet to the skate park, 

are being planned but are currently 

unfunded. 

Switch is not just another skate 

park, a “quick fix” 

to a community 

problem, Pechilis 

said. 

“It is much 

more,” said 

Kerrie Bates, 

director of 

the town’s 

R e c r e a t i o n 

and Culture 

Department. 

The Switch 

R i d e a b l e 

Sculpture Park, 

owned by the 

town, will be a 

permanent mixed-media hardscape, 

made of poured concrete, sculpted 

metal and organic materials. In 

addition to being a rideable concrete 

“canvas” for skateboarders and 

skaters of all ages and abilities, it will 

serve as public performance venue, 

an outdoor arts studio and gallery. 

Sadowski, who created the nonprofit 

Sculpture in Open Spaces, is 

planning an array of interactive art 

along walls of the skate park. The art 

will rotate every few months to keep 

it interesting for those who come to 

skate, bike or spectate. 

Barbara Monahan, an organic 

landscape designer and member of 

the Town’s Public Art and Shade 

and Beautification committees, is 

designing the landscaping around 

the park using native plants. 

In future phases, Switch may have 

a stage and seating to accommodate 

concerts and theater productions. 

There is even some discussion 

of having a farmers’ market near 

Switch.

NEWBURYPORT – It still may 

be year or more before the 1.5- 

mile extension of the Clipper City 

Rail Trail is fully open. But those 

who currently use the trail along 

the Merrimack River waterfront 

can now enjoy a sculpture that 

celebrates a once-threatened 

species, while paying homage to 

the city’s industrial heritage. 

The sculpture, entitled “Osprey: 

Pandion Haliaetus,” by artist 

Wendy Klemperer, depicts a 

larger-than-life raptor clutching 

a fish in its talons as it lands on 

a large granite post. It is made of 

discarded steel rebar that the artist 

scavenged from scrap yards and 

construction sites and repurposed 

into the image of a bird that has 

recovered from a drastic decline in 

the 1950s and 1960s. 

Geordie Vining, the city’s senior 

planner, who is heading the project, 

said, “Wendy’s Osprey sculpture 

captures the grace and strength of 

a wild bird of prey, and, at the same time, 

its rusted old steel and rebar brings to mind 

the landscape’s history of an abandoned 

railroad corridor and industrial waterfront. 

I think it captures the beauty and resilience 

of wildlife, and maybe even the essence of 

our own relationship with the waterfront 

here in Newburyport.” 

For Klemperer, “Industrial refuse is 

transformed to living form,” she said in a 

statement about the sculpture. 

One of about two dozen sculptures along 

the rail trail and the harborwalk, the osprey 

sculpture stands across the river from a 

nesting platform in the marsh. 

The sculpture, positioned between the 

U.S. Coast Guard station and the American 

Yacht Club, is a few strides from the 1,200- 

C 

foot Riverfront Trail Gap behind the city’s 

wastewater treatment facility. Because

Wendy Klemperer and her osprey sculpture 

the trail crosses contaminated soil, trail 

users are banned from that section and 

must now detour around the wastewater 

treatment plant onto Water Street between 

Joppa Flats and the yacht club. 

This portion of the trail has been 

closed to pedestrian Barnes-Dieresta and NDN 5.04_5.5.pdf bike usage 1 1/2/2019 since

contractors discovered a 130-foot section 

that contained the cancer-causing chemical 

PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), which 

was deposited there when the railroad 

Step in 

used the corridor. 

According to Vining, the plan is Dr. to 

James 

remove the polluted soil at a cost are of boar 

$250,000 to $275,000, then build medical up

it and the river. 

The berm is now in the design 

phase, Vining said. 

The senior planner said he 

hopes to raise the money and have 

the contaminated soil removed by 

the end of summer. When that is 

done, the trail can be opened for 

bikers, walkers and runners until 

the construction of the berm 

begins, probably in another year. 

The city has asked the state and 

federal governments for funding 

to remove the contaminated soil. 

Vining recently also asked the 

city’s Community Preservation 

Commission for $250,000 to help 

with the total project. 

The city estimates it will 

cost $1,386,600 to remove the 

contaminated soil and build the 

berm. Mayor Donna Holaday 

has proposed a budget item of 

$1.6 million for the rail trail next 

year in the capital improvement 

budget. 

The extension of the popular 

rail trail, which winds from the 

waterfront through the city’s 

south end neighborhoods, is 

an important piece of the city’s 

repurposing of the riverfront from 

a past industrial marine use to 

a current recreation and tourist 

attraction, Vining said earlier. 

“This paved graded trail with 

multiple attractions will be within 

Continued from page 1 

The large Bialek Park is 

a well-used facility with 

several athletic fields and a 

playground. 

“We expect The Switch will 

appeal across cultural divides, 

drawing residents, visitors, 

artists, athletes, performers 

and spectators from across 

Essex County,” reads the 

Switch application to the 

Essex County Community 

Foundation. 

The application predicts that 

Switch will allow “Boarders 

momentum and trajectory, 

perfecting balance, grace and 

style, while musicians play 

and painters paint.” 

To Pechilis, who with 

Butler owns Full Circle 

Independent Builders, Switch 

will be the next generation in 

the evolution of skate parks. 

Since the first skate parks 

were built on the West Coast 

decades ago, they have been 

for town officials a solution or 

“quick fix” for the problem of 

skateboarders using shopping 

centers, municipal buildings 

and other public places to 

Osprey on Clipper City Rail Trail 

easy walking distance of the 

downtown for thousands of visitors 

and immediately accessible for 

thousands of residents from nearby 

thickly settled neighborhoods,” he 

wrote in a statement. 

“The trail user’s views and 

experience of this extraordinary 

opening of the tidal river, bounded 

by the extensive natural beauty of 

the salt marsh on the other side 

and the barrier islands and the 

open ocean at its mouth, will be 

unique and special. This area of 

the river is part of the designated 

Great Marsh Important Bird 

Area, one of the most significant 

bird areas in Massachusetts and 

New England, and trail users 

will see large numbers of migrant 

waterfowl and raptors. The trail 

will also provide a platform to 

watch scenic seasonal boat traffic 

on the river.” 

The osprey sculpture is 

Klemperer’s second on the 

waterfront. Her “Black Elk,” also 

made of rebar, has stood since 

2005 at the western end of the 

boardwalk. Her work has been 

displayed at the Newburyport 

Art Association’s Range Light 

Sculpture Park. 

Klemperer lives and works in 

Brooklyn, NY and Nelson, NH, 

and her work, which reflects a 

lifelong fascination with animals, 

is on display in scores of public 

Switch Skate Park Rolling To Reality 

ride. 

Well-planned, Switch is 

designed to appeal to a new 

generation of skateboarders, 

who enjoy music and art 

as well as racing around 

hardscapes. It is its own 

subculture, the team of 

builder/skateboarders said. 

Pechilis and other Ipswicharea 

skateboarders used to 

hop the MBTA train to 

Newburyport, walk the 

mile and a half through the 

industrial park to the Nock 

Middle School, where in 

2001, the city Youth Services 

Department built one of 

the North Shore’s first skate 

parks. 

Friendships forged while 

skating behind the Nock 

are paying dividends now, 

as they contribute to the 

construction of the Switch, 

Pechilis said. “People have 

been so generous” with 

donations of supplies, labor 

and skills. 

The city is also assisting 

through the Department 

of Public Services, which is 

currently building a drain to 

settings and private collections 

around the world. Her website is 

www.wendyklemperer.com. 

After a severe decline in the 

osprey population in the middle 

of the last century, it has enjoyed 

a slow resurgence, although there 

are new chemical threats to the 

species. Several nesting pairs

and Salisbury, and according

Star Party with the North Shore Amateur Astronomy Club 

Monday, July 8. Join us at 7:00 p.m. for a few celestial themed crafts. At 8:00 p.m. there will be a slide 

presentation with North Shore Astronomy Club’s Star Party Leader, Brewster LaMacchia. Mr. LaMacchia’s 

topic is: A Lunar Journey: Back to the Future. In the 50 years since humans first walked across the lunar 

surface we’ve developed a much better understanding of when and how the moon formed, and what it’s 

been up to for the last 4+ billion years since it formed. A number of recent lunar missions have shown the 

potential for finding water on the moon, which is critical for establishing the infrastructure for continued 

exploration as well as commercialization. We’ll look at these developments and what the future may hold 

for Earth’s closest cosmic companion. At approximately 8:45 p.m. we will move outside to the adjacent 

field for observation through Club telescopes. This event is best for ages 10 and up. No registration 

required, free and open to the public. Rain date is Tuesday, July 9, same time. Hamilton-Wenham Public

Cape Ann Botanicals 

Celebrates One-Year Anniversary 

Ipswich and Newburyport, MA - June 17, 2019 - While CBD products are widely known today, 

much less was known about them by the public even last year, which makes the upcoming one-year 

anniversary of Cape Ann Botanicals especially gratifying to Owner Spencer Kalker. 

“When we first opened, some people thought we were ‘a pot shop,’” he said. “Nothing could be 

further from the truth.” 

In order to build his business, which includes locations in Ipswich and Newburyport, MA, Kalker 

said he felt he needed to go well beyond simply offering hemp-derived CBD products. 

“A strong education component is a big part of what we do, because there is still a lot of confusion 

and oncern about cannabis,” he said. 

Hosting educational events throughout the year, Cape Ann Botanicals also provides nursing services 

and wellness packages through a Registered nurse, who in turn helps make product selections. 

Kalker said a committed staff has helped make this first year “a big success.” 

“Everyone who works here believes in the life changing benefits of CBD to help people,” he added. 

“I’m proud of our work and commitment to focus solely on the medicinal properties of CBD.” 

To celebrate one year in business, Cape Ann Botanicals will launch a new loyalty program to attract 

new customers and retain past ones. “It’s a great program that rewards repeat customers in a number 

of different ways,” he said. “I’d like to think we are building a community here, so it is important we 

give back to folks who give to us.” 

In reflecting on the past year, Kalker said he believes they have created an accessible space that 

welcomes entire families to learn and experience for themselves “what might be possible for them 

with CBD.” 

“This first year has been rewarding and surprising,” he said. “It’s been terrific how the community 

has supported our business and staff. and we are so grateful for this support.” 

Cape Ann Botanicals is located on 8 Central Street in Ipswich and at 49 Pleasant Street in 

Newburyport.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Get 

your facts together and become familiar 

with them before you have to face 

up to that interview. The better prepared 

you are, the easier it will be to 

make that important impression. 

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) New 

information might warrant changing 

your mind about a recently made decision. 

Never mind the temporary confusion 

it might cause. Acting on the truth 

is always preferable. 

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Creating 

a loving atmosphere for those you 

care for could pay off in many ways. 

Expect to hear some unexpected but 

very welcome news that can make a 

big difference in your life. 

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Stepping 

away from an old and seemingly 

insoluble problem might be helpful. 

Use the time to take a new look at the 

situation and perhaps work out a new 

method of dealing with it. 

LEO (July 23 to August 22) You’re 

still in a favorable goal-setting mode. 

However, you might need to be a little 

more realistic about some of your 

aims. Best to reach for what is currently 

doable. The rest will follow. 

VIRGO (August 23 to September 

22) A setback is never easy to 

deal with. But it could be a boon in 

disguise. Recheck your proposal 

and strengthen the weak spots. Seek 

advice from someone who has “been 

there and done that.”

LIBRA (September 23 to October 

22) Coming up with a new way of 

handling a tedious job-regulated chore 

could lead to more than just a congratulatory 

memo once the word reaches 

the “right people.” Good luck. 

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 

21) What you might call determination, 

someone else might regard as 

stubbornness. Look for ways to reach 

a compromise that won’t require a 

major shift of views on your part. 

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to 

December 21) You’re still in a vulnerable 

mode vis-a-vis “offers” that sound 

too good to be true. So continue to be 

skeptical about anything that can’t be 

backed up with provable facts. 

CAPRICORN (December 22 to 

January 19) Thrift is still dominant this 

week. What you don’t spend on what 

you don’t need will be available for 

you to draw on should a possible (albeit 

temporary) money crunch hit. 

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 

18) Staying close to home early in 

the week allows for some introspection 

about your social life. Sort out 

your feelings before rejoining your 

fun-time fellows on the weekend. 

PISCES (February 19 to March 

20) It can be a bit daunting as well as 

exciting to find yourself finally taking 

action on a long-delayed move for a 

change. It helps to stay with it when 

others rally to support you. 

BORN THIS WEEK: Your love of 

home and family provide you with the 

emotional support you need to find 

success in the outside world.

Health & Wellness 

BY J. PETER ST. CLAIR, DMD 

I understand that periodontal 

disease is a major cause of tooth 

loss in adults, but is there anything 

I can do about it? 

Gum disease—periodontal 

disease—often progresses slowly, 

without pain, over a long period 

of time. This is one reason why it 

is common among older adults. 

The longer the disease goes 

undetected and uncontrolled, the 

more damage it causes to gums 

and other supporting tissues. 

Although periodontal disease is 

caused by bacteria, other factors 

can increase the risk or severity of 

the condition. These include food 

left between the teeth, smoking, 

smokeless (spit) tobacco use, badly 

aligned teeth, ill-fitting bridges or 

partial dentures, poor diets and 

some systemic diseases such as 

diabetes. 

Although periodontal disease 

is common, it can be controlled or 

arrested. In its early stages, it can 

be reversed. Treatment of advanced 

cases may require surgery. Look 

for these warning signs and see 

your dentist if you notice any of 

them: bleeding gums when you 

brush; red, tender or swollen 

gums; gums that have pulled away 

from the teeth; pus between your 

Remember when we were kids 

and summers were spent riding our 

bicycles around the neighborhood? 

We’d screech around corners, never 

worrying about balance or falls. 

Now, as seniors, most of us don’t 

have that exercise option. 

But that doesn’t mean we have to 

stay off bikes altogether. We only 

need to add a wheel. 

Three-wheel bicycles, known as 

trikes, are becoming more popular 

as the boomer generation ages. These 

Brighter Smiles... 

COMMON ADULT QUESTIONS – PART 2/4 

teeth and gums when the gums 

are pressed; loose teeth or teeth 

that are moving apart; any change 

in your bite; any change in the fit 

of your partial dentures; constant 

bad breath or bad taste. 

My dentures don’t feel as 

comfortable as they once did. 

Before I see the dentist, should I 

try some different products myself 

to try to improve them? 

Your dentures were made to 

fit precisely. If they are cared for 

properly, they do not change 

shape. They can become loose due 

to natural changes in the gums 

and bone supporting them. As the 

jawbone begins to shrink, so do 

the gums. In addition, the teeth 

wear over time and become less 

effective during chewing. Most 

dentures should be replaced every 

5-8 years. 

When your dentures do not fit 

properly, see your dentist as soon 

as possible so adjustments can be 

made. Professional relining of the 

denture may extend its lifespan. 

Do not try to change the fit 

of your dentures yourself. This 

can damage them and make them 

unrepairable. 

If I have full dentures, do I 

really need to see the dentist as 

often as before? 

Even if you no longer have 

your natural teeth, you should 

see your dentist once a year for an 

oral examination. The dentist will 

examine your mouth to check for 

any problem with the gum ridges, 

the tongue and the joints of the jaw, 

Senior Scene 

Our Biking Days Aren’t Over 

bikes have one wheel in the front 

and two in the back, and most often 

come with a big basket between the 

back wheels to hold groceries or a 

small dog. 

Most of the trikes are single speed, 

but some come with three or seven 

speeds to make starting and slight 

inclines easier. Some trikes come 

with an electric motor, and you’ll 

need that if you live in a hilly area. 

One warning about the trikes, 

however: If you rode a regular twowheel 

bike when you were young, 

you no doubt learned about balance 

and leaning. Trikes don’t work that 

way. To ride one of these safely, you 

need to sit upright. 

If your doctor says yes to a bicycle 

of any kind, do lots of research 

as well as screen for oral cancer. For 

a variety of reasons, many older 

adults are more susceptible to oral 

diseases, including oral cancer. 

About 95 percent of all cancers 

are found in people over age 40. 

However, many of these cancers 

are treatable if detected early. Oral 

tissues are also checked for signs 

of other diseases that can first 

manifest themselves in the mouth. 

I am currently taking 

medication that my physician 

prescribed for me. Can this affect 

my dental treatment? 

When your dentist asks for your 

medical history, be sure to provide 

complete, up-to-date information 

on your health. Inform your dentist 

if you have experienced recent 

hospitalization or surgery, or if 

you have recently been ill. Also tell 

the dentist the names, doses and 

frequency of any medications you 

are taking, whether prescription 

or over-the-counter products, and 

the name of your physician. This 

information will help the dentist 

to select the most safe and effective 

method of treatment for you.

before you buy. Especially look at 

YouTube videos. Check out trikes 

at a legitimate bicycle shop. Don’t 

order one online unless you know 

exactly what you’re getting. 

For many of us, though, the idea 

of riding any kind of outdoor bicycle 

is out of the question, either because 

of health, or busy streets or lack of 

storage space. There’s something to 

be said for indoor exercise cycles. 

They come in either upright (like a 

regular bicycle) or recumbent, which 

leans slightly back. Recumbents are 

closer to the floor, so the likelihood 

of falling is reduced. 

The best thing about indoor 

cycles: It doesn’t matter what the 

weather is.
