From left, Brazilian exchange students Victor Lukenchukii, 16, and Lucas
Skavinski, 14, are some of the many students Barbara Langill helps in her spare
time as a host.
When international students come to
Lynnfield as part of the foreign exchange program
Educatius, Barbara Langill is one of the
first people they meet.
Although the former youth minister has
always enjoyed mentoring young people,
Langill only joined the program three years
ago, starting out as a host mother before
soon moving on to a regional coordinator
position.
After hosting her first student - a boy
from Italy - she said she was inspired to
help other Lynnfield families connect with
Educatius students.
“They’re always looking for host families
to recruit, and (my husband and I)
had a wonderful experience,” Langill said.
“I really liked the program and felt it was

New town assessor has a taxing job
By Anne Marie Tobin
POSTAL CUSTOMER
LYNNFIELD, MA 01940
Lexington's loss is Lynnfield's gain
with new town Assessor Michael Golden
bringing property assessing experience
and private sector appraisal skills to his
new job.
Golden's responsibilities encompass
assessing town property at full and fair
market value under the parameters set by
Proposition 2½, the state's property tax
limitation law.
Five years experience as the Town
of Lexington's assessor saw Golden
manage two assistants and assess more
than 14,000 properties. He was the Town
of Weston's assistant assessor from
2013-2015 and compared the western
suburb to Lynnfield with roughly 3,400
properties in each community.

"Working in Lexington and

Lynnfield is like those two communities,
a blend of old and
new," Golden said.
The Reading resident initially
applied for the Lynnfield assessing
post four years ago.
"I didn't get the job I think
because I didn't have management
experience. Weston has a
small office so I never managed
a staff," Golden said.

ESSEX MEDIA GROUP
The state of Massachusetts
in collaboration with the
Department of Veteran Services
has obtained commemorative
Vietnam Veterans books titled;
“A Time to Honor.”
Dedicated to Vietnam War
veterans and their families, the
book includes stories of service,
duty, and sacrifice pays tribute
to all Vietnam veterans in recognition
and appreciation for
their service 50 years ago.
“A Time to Honor “ approaches
the Vietnam War in
a uniquely personal way, focusing
on individual stories of
the men and women from every
state and service who fulfilled
their duty.
These stories offer a glimpse
of what the war was like from a
ground level, personal perspective.
A quote from the inside cover
says it all: “It is well past the time
to welcome these men and women
home, to remember their service,
and to honor their sacrifices”.

"So far it's been good. I have
all my passwords and usernames,
so now I just need to get
up to speed on Lynnfield in general
and inventory," he said.
Golden worked in 2013 for
the Town of Stoneham and
Patriot Properties, a major property
inventory firm.
"A friend of mine Dave
Nugent, who played football
at BC, brought me in to see his
bosses at Whittier in Boston.
I wasn't keen on a commute to
Boston, so he recommended I
talk with Dave Brown, who had
a family business in Stoneham,
and he took me on board (of assessors),"
Golden said.
He loves his short commute
from Reading to Lynnfield and
back home where Golden and
his wife, Kelly, have a son,
Shawn, a senior who hopes to
play hockey in college.
Golden's hockey reputation
almost overshadows his professional
experience.
He is a former Hobey Baker
Trophy (best college player in
America) finalist in 1987-1988.
He was drafted by Edmonton in

While attending the University
of Maine, Golden was traded
to the New York Rangers and
signed a contract with them.
"I had never really had an
injury, but the summer before
I started with the Rangers, I
fractured my left ankle. It happened
one week before the start
of camp. That wiped out my
rookie year and I only played 18
games," Golden said.
A skating injury to his left foot
translated into a prolonged recovery
including seven weeks in
Massachusetts General Hospital.
He lasted one more year

Hit the ice at MarketStreet for February break
One of the regions most popular outdoor
skating rinks, the MarketStreet
Rink features a classic 50 by 100 foot
skating area with a warming hut to ensure
skaters and spectators stay toasty
in even the chilliest of weather.
Located on The Green, the heart of
MarketStreet’s community events and
gatherings, near lululemon, J.Crew and
Zinneken’s Belgian Waffles, the rink
will be extending its hours for February
school break.
It will also host two special themed
skates - a Princess Skate, Saturday,
Feb. 15, 10 a.m.-noon and a Superhero
Skate, Saturday, Feb. 22, 10 a.m.-noon.
Kids and families can meet and greet
their favorite princesses and superheroes
while enjoying complimentary
snacks, crafts and a movie inside
Capital One Cafe. The Warming Hut
will also be serving complimentary hot
chocolate. Any superhero or princess in
themed clothing skates for free!
Capital One Cafe will also host
LANGILL,
From Page 1
important that it continued here.”
Educatius partners directly
with high schools in 16 countries
and connects international
students with host families in 22
states across the U.S. According
to the program’s official website,
it’s one of the largest in the world
dedicated exclusively to providing
international education
opportunities for high schoolers.
Many applicants request to be
placed in Lynnfield, which receives
funding for the program
through an educational grant.
Langill speculates the reason
for this is because of the town’s
close proximity to Boston - a
city known for its passionate
sports fans.
“We have a lot of kids who
are sports fans and who are fans
of the Patriots or the Celtics, so
here sounds good to them,” she
said. “They want to be close to
the city.”
Six students, five from Brazil
and one from Vietnam, are currently
enrolled at Lynnfield
High School, while two have
already returned to their home
countries upon the completion
of their half-year programs.
Lynnfield High School principal
Bob Cleary in a January
interview said the school sees
an average of about seven
Educatius students each year,
with Brazil, Germany, Italy,
China, and Vietnam among the
most popular countries.
Before new students become
acquainted with Langill, however,
they must complete a rigorous
application process. The
program then sends Lynnfield
High School profiles of applicants
who request to be placed
there, and, once final decisions
are made, Langill sets out to do
her job matching students with
approved families.

She welcomes the world
Because she recognizes
hosting an exchange student
is often a daunting challenge
for all involved, Langill works
closely with host families to
help them prepare. To ensure
each space is up to standard,
she visits homes beforehand
and takes pictures to send back
to students.
“We put pictures of the family
in, too,” she said, adding that
small touches like this can help
alleviate anxiety students often
feel about their impending trip.
Once they arrive, Langill
works hard to ensure every
child feels welcome in their
new home.
“Especially in the beginning,
I meet with them a couple times
to answer any questions. We
have a little orientation so they
can ask us anything they might
be embarrassed to ask their host
family,” she said.
“I really enjoy learning about
different cultures and hearing
the kids’ experiences and why
they come here. They’re usually
very excited to be here and
they’re nervous about (missing)
their family.”
Some students have many
questions about American culture
and look to Langill for
guidance.
“They want to know what
people are wearing in school,
what lunch will be like - a lot
of students don’t have lunch at
school in their countries. They
go home to eat,” she said. “Even
the plumbing is so different in
some countries.”
For several students, this
will be their first birthday
away from family. To curb
any impending homesickness,

Educatius Northeast team’s
January Star of the Month -

home, which is conveniently

Lynnfield High School.
“I have them come over after
school. We do cupcakes, and I
make a card and all the other
students sign it. I try to make
sure they’re happy,” she said. “I
want them to be able to call me
if they have any issues.”
So far, the program has
been a successful endeavor for
Lynnfield.
At its January 21 meeting,
Lynnfield’s School Committee
voted unanimously to continue
the district’s participation in the
program and agreed to accept up
to 10 Educatius students during
the 2020-2021 academic year.
“The program works really
well and we have had kids come
back and visit after deciding to
go to college here,” Cleary said
in January.
“It gives our kids a great experience,
too, in that they see
what they have and what everybody
else has. We even had students
come for a half year who
wanted to change to full year.”
Cleary also reported minimal
problems from students
and host families and credited
Langill’s hard work.
“Since Barbara Langill has
taken over, she has done a dynamite
job and we have a number
of families still hosting multiple
kids year after year,” he said.
As for Langill, she just
wants to make sure the experience
is an enriching one
for Lynnfield’s students, both
American and international.
“To have kids interact with
other cultures is so important
for (promoting) diversity,”
she said. “When I worked as a
youth minister, part of our job
was to get kids out of Lynnfield
and go on youth mission trips.
If you’ve only lived here and
you’ve only experienced this,
you have no idea what’s really
happening in the world. I think
this is important.”
Love is
in the air!

How to reduce the risk
of a heart attack
By Margaret Ward
February is often considered
the month of love, with couples
and family members sending
heart emojis, heart-themed
cards and heart-shaped chocolates.
But what's a better gift
to your loved ones than taking
care of your heart?
February is American Heart
Health Month. And while you
might first think of it as routine
campaign — it’s becoming
more important than ever.
Cardiovascular or heart disease
is the leading cause of death in
women and men, with obesity
and diabetes, which increase
a persons's risk of heart attack
and stroke, on the rise.
While the statistics are
alarming, don’t panic. Research
shows that lifestyle changes
can greatly reduce your risk.
Here’s what you need to know:
What is American Heart
Health Month?
It's a time to raise awareness
about the serious dangers of
heart disease and help people
work to reduce their risk of
heart attack, stroke and other
related complications.
The American Heart
Association promotes its wide
array of resources and partnerships
to provide people with
tools to reduce high blood
pressure, stress, help them eat
better, exercise and other key
changes.
Why American Heart Health
Month is so important:
Heart disease is responsible
for about one in every four
deaths in the U.S., claiming the
lives of more than half a million
people each year. About
735,000 Americans will have a
heart attack this year.
The numbers are scary, but
the steps to reduce your risk
are simple and clear.
How to reduce your risk
of heart disease and heart
attack:
The CDC outlines the top
lifestyle changes to make to
avoid heart complications.
They include the following:
• Quit smoking, this includes
e-cigarettes
• Maintain a healthy weight
• Eat a healthy diet and avoid
trans fats
• Start moving
• Treat your other health
conditions, especially if you
have high blood pressure, high
cholesterol and diabetes.
The main takeaway? A person’s
lifestyle plays a huge role
in increasing or reducing their
risk, explained Dr. Suzanne
Steinbaum, a cardiologist at
The Mount Sinai Hospital and
a volunteer medical expert for
American Heart Association’s
Go Red for Women.
“All of these different components
are really what leads to
heart disease. This is all driven
by lifestyle. In my mind, that’s
very empowering because
you get to actually change the
outcome of your life based
on how you live daily,” said
Steinbaum, who serves as a
national spokesperson for the
American Heart Association.
Lastly, know the signs of
heart attack and stroke.
“It’s always about baby
steps. It’s never too late, let’s
just start there. It’s never too
late to start eating healthy, it’s
never too late to start moving.
But you certainly don’t start by
running a marathon, you start
by walking around the block,”
she said.
Start walking around
the block daily.
Or find a low-impact, beginner
workout video for free
online. (Check out this guide.)
“We have become a truly
sedentary culture and the risk of
that is significant,” Steinbaum
said. “We see that if people
get up from their desks every
hour, even for a few minutes,
it decreases their risk. So I say
to everyone, you don’t have to
go the gym and go crazy, but
you do have to get up and do
something. And even walking
shows benefits.”
In addition to physical benefits,
aerobic exercise such as
walking, jogging or biking is
shown to increase cognition
and brain function in adults of
all ages.
Eat whole foods and limit
all sugary drinks.
This includes diet beverages,
and while you're at it, steer
clear of fried food and processed
food.
What does that mean on a
day-to-day basis?
WEEKLYNEWS.NET - 978-532-5880 FEBRUARY 13, 2020
“If you look at a package and
you can’t pronounce some of
the words that are in the ingredients,
don’t eat it. If there's a
lot of chemicals, it’s processed
and it’s not good,” Steinbaum
said.
Eating vegetables gives
your body vitamins, minerals,
antioxidants and fiber. Some
healthy options? Consider
steamed vegetables with lean
protein such as chicken or fish,
whole wheat pasta with vegetables,
snacks such as nuts or an
apple with peanut butter or almond
butter that’s not heavily
sweetened.
“Whole foods help in stabilizing
sugar levels, decreasing
cholesterol and blood pressure,
they are really functionally
helpful to us,” Steinbaum
explained.
Reduce your stress.
There is an “enormous
amount” of literature linking
chronic psychological stress
to heart disease, noted Joel
Dimsdal, distinguished professor
emeritus and research
professor in the department of
psychiatry at the University of
California San Diego.
In his analysis of scientific
literature, he noted one study
that found people who felt
chronic or “permanent stress”
at work or at home were more
than two times more likely to
develop a heart attack.
In addition, being depressed
increases your risk, noted
Steinbaum, as it raises your
body’s level of inflammation.
“It needs to be managed
whether through lifestyle, medication.
Depression increases
risk of heart disease four fold,”
the cardiologist noted.
So what do you do about it,
when you feel anxious or helpless?
First and foremost, you
can always call, text or chat
with someone 24/7 to get immediate
mental health support.
Secondly, consider seeing a
professional counselor, therapist
or even talking with your
doctor. There are most likely
affordable or free options in
your community, or people
who can point you to someone.
In addition, consider adding
meditation, exercise, prayer
and more time with friends into
your schedule.
“Heart health is not something
to blow off,” Steinbaum
said. “Again, it’s never too
late.”

DANVERS — Northeast
Arc, a not-for-profit organization
that helps children and
adults with disabilities become
full participants in the community,
has received a grant from
the United States Department
of Labor’s Office of Disability
Employment to increase employment
opportunities for
people with disabilities.
The second-largest of 700
Arcs in the United States,
Northeast Arc was one of five
Arc chapters selected across
the country to participate in
the project.
The National Expansion of
Employment Opportunities
Network (NEON) initiative is
designed to develop strategic
plans to increase integrated
employment opportunities for
people served, including those
with significant disabilities and
mental health disabilities.
“Our application for the

development of innovative
small businesses to provide
training,” said Tim Brown,
Director of Innovation and
Strategy, Northeast Arc. “As
minimum wage and health care
costs increase, we need to ensure
employers will continue to
consider people with disabilities
when making job offers.”
The grant will provide subject
matter experts to work
with each organization to help
develop strategic initiatives
and plans.
The Northeast Arc’s goal is
to work with these experts to
translate its current employment
model successes to include
people with more significant
disabilities. Arc also plans
to evaluate current small businesses
and training programs,
recommend changes, and identify
new models to explore.
The plan also calls for developing
tools to evaluate
five-year regional employment
trends so the organization can
implement training to better
prepare people for the future.

Swimmers make splash in sectionals
By Anne Marie Tobin
It was a banner day for Lynnfield/Wakefield boys
swim team senior captain Antonio Anastasiades Sunday
at the MIAA Boys North Sectional Championship meet
at the Zesiger Sports and Fitness Center on the campus
of Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Seeded fourth, Anastasiades knocked nearly five seconds
off his seed time to win the 200 individual medley
in 1:57.05 and also placed second in the 100 breaststroke
in 58.33.
“Antonio had a great meet,” said coach Jeff Boyd. “I
wouldn’t want to face him at states – he is locked in. I
can’t wait for next weekend.”
The 200 medley relay team of Ben Sykes,
Anastasiades, Alex Kent and Spencer Little also
advanced to the state meet next Sunday at Boston
University. The team posted its best time of the season
(1:52.53) and finished 28th.
“The boys relay was awesome,” said Boys. “They

21st in 2:06.55. The 400 freestyle relay team of
Sadhvi Sreeram, Caitlin Hooper, Michelle Marder and
Liz Sykes finished 19th in 4:12.82.
“The girls all swam really well, that last relay (400

that relay swam their best time, so that was a nice way
to end the season.”
Antonio Anastasiades also took second in the 100
breaststroke.
Magwood helps Pioneer icemen sweep week
By Dan Kane
and Anne Marie Tobin
Sometimes, all you need is a
chance to prove your game. Just
ask the Lynnfield boys hockey
team senior goalie, Anthony
Magwood.
Magwood got the start of
his varsity career Senior Night
against Saugus on Feb. 5 at
McVann-O’Keefe Rink.
Magwood did not disappoint.
He made 16 saves and notched
the first shutout of his career with
a 6-0 win over visiting Saugus at
McVann-O’Keefe Rink.
“This is my 19th year of
coaching and I can maybe count
on one hand count the times that
I’ve been this proud of a kid,”
Lynnfield coach Jon Gardner
said. “A great teammate, a battler
gets his shot and let’s face
it, early on he made four or five
spectacular saves. His first shot
as a varsity goaltender was a
breakaway from their captain.
Just phenomenal. Such a good
story and I’m so proud of him.”
Newburyport 5, Lynnfield 2
At Henry Graf Rink Thursday
night, Sam Pifko and Alex
Buonopane scored one goal
each in the loss for the Pioneers.
Nate Alves, Danny Mack, Pat
Barrett and Brenden Henehen
notched one assist each.
“The (Henry Graf Skating
Rink) is a rink that’s a tough
place to play in I don’t care
who’s on the other team. It’s a
house of horrors,” said Gardner.
“We knew that Newburyport
(would) be gunning for us too
because we gave it to them here
(at McVann-O’Keefe).
Lynnfield, dropped to 10-6-2,
had one week to prepare for its
final game of the season Feb. 19
against Gloucester at Talbot Rink.
“We will have finished the
season with three road games,
and all of them are tough tasks,”
Gardner said.
Lynnfield 6, Saugus 0
Sam Pifko also had a game to
remember with three goals and
an assist. Jack Hammersley,
John Simonetti and Phil
Berquist scored one goal each
for Lynnfield. Danny Mack
dished one assist.
“Pifko has just been pouring
in the goals,” Gardner said.
“He’s honing in on 20, he’s at
19 now. He likes to score in
bunches, has a couple hat tricks
and a four-goal game. He’s
going pretty good.”
The Pioneers special teams
stepped up midway through the
first. After killing off a Saugus
power play, Lynnfield went on
a man advantage. Mack made
the most of it with a cross-ice
pass right to Hammersley, who
buried it to make it 1-0.
The penalty kill continued to
be one of Lynnfield’s strengths,
with the Pioneers killing off two
more penalties, including a brief
5-on-3 chance in the second.
Midway through the period,
Pifko put away a rebound to
make it 2-0. Just 13 seconds
later, Simonetti finished a Pifko
feed to stretch the Lynnfield
lead to 3-0.
Pifko wasn’t done yet. He
made it 4-0 with another goal
just seconds before the period
ended.
The third period was more
of the same with goals from
Berquist and Pifko.

Tanners win tough battle vs. Beverly
By Harold Rivera
PEABODY – When you step into the
state tournament, you go in knowing
that you’re bound to play battle-tested
opponents. Thus, Saturday’s 4-3 win
over Beverly at McVann/O’Keefe Rink
was an important one for the Peabody/
Lynnfield girls hockey team.
On the one hand, the Tanners earned
a Northeastern League Hockey win and
improved their chances at earning a high
postseason seed with two more points.
On the other hand, Peabody was tested
from start to finish by a well-coached
Panthers team.
“We needed to be able to challenge
Beverly” Tanners coach Michelle Roach
said. “We had an okay first period. We
knew we had to have an even better
second period because we couldn’t sit
back. If we sit back against a team like
that, we’re going to regret it.
“Overall I’m happy with the way we’re
playing, our response and the way we
close things out. I can see where we’ve
improved during the season. We’re
fighting for league positioning and state
tournament positioning, which are both
crucial. Getting a home game is ideal for
us because we play well at home.”
Jennifer Flynn and Sammie Mirasolo
guided the Tanners’ offense with two
goals each. Flynn also logged two assists.
“I think Jenn’s working fantastic,”

Peabody/Lynnfield’s Hannah Gronko attempts to block a shot from Beverly’s
Sadie Papamechail.
Roach said. “If I had to pick one player
who has consistently stood out to me
over the last couple games, it would be
Jenn Flynn. She has come up in crucial
situations, whether she’s back checking,
penalty killing, (or) putting pucks in
net.”

evened the score at 1-1 with five minutes
to go in the opening frame, shortly after
the Panthers killed off a penalty.
Mirasolo had the last word in the first
period, scoring her first goal of the game
to give Peabody a 2-1 edge at the first
intermission.
Beverly knotted the score at 2-2 on
Emma Thibodeau’s goal just 44 seconds
into the second period. Peabody
recaptured the momentum on Mirasolo’s
second tally two minutes later. It remained
a 3-2 game for the next 10 minutes
until the Tanners closed out the
period with a crucial shorthanded goal
from Flynn. Beverly goalie Madison
Delano made the save on the initial shot
but Flynn stuck with the play, cleaned
up the rebound and fired it home to give
Peabody a 4-2 cushion.
“That pressure on the shorthanded
goal that she got, she went in, she
worked hard and she pressured,” Roach
said of Flynn. “She got the chance, she
waited and put the puck in.
“She’s someone that we can use consistently
in these high-pressure situations
and she comes out on top.”
Beverly’s Amanda Forziati made
things interesting by cutting the lead to
4-3 with 30 seconds remaining in the
game. But it was too little, too late and
the Tanners (11-5-1) hung tight for the
4-3 win.

Wrestlers are looking to pick it up
With the regular season in the rear view mirror, the
Lynnfield/North Reading wrestling team is looking to
step it up a notch in the postseason.
The Black and Gold kicks off the tournament
season Saturday at the Division 2 North Sectional
Championship meet at Masconomet (8 a.m.).
Coach Craig Stone has high hopes for several wrestlers,
starting with his three senior captains -- Stuart
Glover (138 pounds), Timmy Leggett (132 pounds) and
Sean McCullough (182 pounds).
McCullough has lost only two matches this season
(one of them when he wrestled up to 195 in a quad
match) and currently sports a record of 41-2. Earlier
this season, he passed Tom Arseneault (129) in career
wins and now stands No. 2 all-time with 143. Eric Kerr
is the career leader with 162.
Glover (34-8) and Leggett 33-8) are also coming off
outstanding seasons.
“All three captains are in decent weight classes that
have two or three very good wrestlers, so all three are
capable of moving on to the Divisional and All-States
meets,” said Stone. “Obviously, I follow the rankings,
so I would also say that we have a few other kids with
decent records who have an outside shot of placing and
advancing.”
The top four wrestlers in each weight class at
Saturday’s sectional meets advance to the state divisional
meet Feb. 21-22 at Milton High School.
McCullough enters the postseason coming off a
five-pin, 5-0 week, four of them coming at Saturday’s
Haverhill Dual Meet Tournament. Last year,
McCullough became only the second wrestler in the
history of Lynnfield/LNR wrestling to qualify for the
New England Championship meet (Kerr was the first),
punching his ticket with a seventh-place finish at the
All-State meet.
“We had a much-improved season,” Stone said.
“We have 12 kids who have winning records this
year, so I am just ecstatic about that.”
Haverhill Dual Meet Tournament
LNR 54, Excel Charter 30
The Black and Gold (16-15) opened the tournament
on a high note, defeating a team it had lost to last season.
“(It’s) always nice to beat a team you lost to the previous
year,” Stone said.
Winners were Christian Real-Costa at 113 (3:14);
Leggett at 132 (1:35); Glover at 138 (1:13); Cam
Randazzo at 145 (1:41); Ryan McCullough at 160
(1:23); Dan Ryan at 170 (1:32); Giovanni Colucciello
at 182 (1:41); Sean McCullough at 195 (1:32) and
Brandon Ouellette at 220 (11 seconds).
Lawrence 60, LNR 24
The match was closer than the score suggests as LNR
gave up 24 points in forfeits.
Leggett (2:49 pin) and Sean McCullough (48 second
pin) were the only winners.
“We did not match up well,” said Stone.
LNR 42, Weymouth 40
In the consolation bracket, LNR’s match against
Weymouth was back-and-forth. Greg Camier clinched
the victory with a pin in 1:53 at 220 pounds. Other winners
were Glover (1:04); Matt Howell at 145 (forfeit);
Randazzo (1:29); Ryan McCullough (25 seconds);
Sean McCullough (1:23) and Aidan Carucci at 195 (19
seconds)
Boys basketball keeps tourney hopes alive
The Pioneers boys basketball
team (7-10) kept its tournament
hopes alive Friday night
with a 55-43 road win over the
Vikings.
Jack Ford (17 points), Clay
Marengi (11 points) and Luke
Martinho (10) were in double
figures.
Triton led 16-14 after the first
quarter, but the Pioneers leveraged
a huge advantage at the
free throw line, making 9-of-11
attempts to break the game
open in the second quarter.
Martinho and Blake Peters hit
big three-pointers in the frame.
By the time the dust settled, the
Pioneers had outscored Triton
21-5 to lead 33-21 at halftime.
Trailing 44-28 going into the
fourth quarter, the Vikings cut
into the deficit over the final
eight minutes, but it was too
