A Peabody lawyer is doing what she can to
help the most vulnerable students, the “silent
victims,” as she calls them, get the services
they need.

Her business has exploded since the onset
of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Parents were fighting for special services

discontinued, it’s that much worse,”
said Milman. “On good days, these families

away and families at home, they are in an

‘Eatery 58’
to provide
plenty of
food for
thought
By Anne Marie Tobin
Sometimes all it takes is a little creative
vision and a can-do attitude to go from
trash to treasure.
In 2012, Ed Greeley was looking for
a new location in Peabody for his home
remodeling and cabinet business, New
England Cabinet. He found a suitable
space in a former tannery on Pulaski
Street. At the time, a handful of businesses,
ranging from antiques dealers
(some would say junk dealers), painters
and craftsmen occupied the building. Only
20 percent of it was leased, but Greeley
saw potential to turn the building into an
up-and-coming place in the community.
Eight years later he did just that, turning
the once junk-filled old building into Mills
58, arguably the hippest spot in Peabody
to work, eat and, maybe sometime in the
near future, to live.
Greeley’s latest project at Mills 58 is
“Eatery 58”, an upscale indoor/outdoor
food court and marketplace that is scheduled
to open Sept. 1.
This is no ordinary, run-of-the-mill
food court.
“We could very well be the hottest spot
in all of Peabody,” said Greeley. “You can
eat anywhere you want, but none of them
has anything like we are offering in terms
of the variety and atmosphere. We’re
more than an eatery, we’re a marketplace

where people come in to buy
jellies and flowers and homebaked
and home-made items.
It’s a total experience.”
The court will feature homemade
pasta, a seafood bar with
baked haddock, clams and fried
scallops, vegetarian selections,
coal-fired, brick oven pizza,
a grill station with gourmet
burgers, steak and turkey tips,
specialty coffees (ground on
premises), smoothies, and, of
course, assorted desserts and
sweets, including gelato.
The restaurant will be owned
and managed by Frank Martino,
Sr.
“When I designed the space,
I interviewed several companies
who submitted letters of
intent to fill the food kiosks,
but I knew his son Frank, Jr.,
who owns Capitocoffee, and
we hit it off to the point where
they will be operating all of the
food venues. Opening in the
new COVID normal allows
us, luckily, to tailor the whole
system to be COVID-safe and
make it a comfortable place
where people can feel safe.
Greeley said a portion of
the food court will be used for
farmers’ markets from time to
time. He said the furniture was
delivered last week and an executive
chef (whose name has not yet
been announced) has been hired.
Originally built in 1890,
Mills 58 now is home to approximately
75 businesses.
Fitness centers, nail and hair
salons, photography studios,
antique and consignment stores,
a used bookstore, a test kitchen,
and even a day care center.
Greeley admits that signing
on as a tenant, and later, purchasing
the building in 2018,
was a gamble.
“No doubt, as the place was
in total disrepair and nobody
in his right mind would have
done what I did,” Greeley said.
“I don’t think too many developers
see the economic sense
of the investment, so it was an
advantage for me that I understood
the building as I had been
a tenant. I was able to wrap my
head around the imperfections.
It wasn’t a plan, but I kind of
knew what I was getting myself
into. But I’m happy to say
that, even though going in as a
tenant was a huge gamble and I
spent more money than I should
Northeast Arc goes to the mall
have, I’ve given the community
something to be proud of.”
Next on the agenda for
Greeley is resurrecting a plan to
build residential loft units.
“We weren’t successful the
first time around, but with
COVID, things are different
now, so we plan to revisit that
this fall,” said Greeley. “With
so many companies letting
employees work from home,
building more office space
doesn’t make business sense.
I feel it’s better to build residential
and mixed use, so we
hope to begin talking with the
city soon.”

The Northeast Arc is going to
the mall, as in Liberty Tree Mall,
the site of a new store named
“Parcels,” which is scheduled
to open in early August.
The Arc’s Resident Director
of Innovation and Strategy Tim
Brown, said he is excited to
be able to be able to offer customers
a one-stop shopping experience
at the expansive 1,000
square- foot store.
“We wanted to create one

we have a great location next to
the movie theatre and food court,
giving us great foot traffic.”
Thousands of unique products
will be offered at Parcels, among
them being bed and bath items,
speciality jams, cutting boards

Brown said he conducted a
nationwide call for products
and internet searches to identify
inventory and that nearly all the
inventory is affordable.
“Most products are brand
new to this area and cannot be
purchased anywhere else,” he
said. “I haven’t seen them in
any downtown shops, so we’re
confident most of the items will
be one-of-a-kind type things
that are incredibly affordable.”
Featured items included jalapeno-infusion
fruit jams and
mustards from Texas Sweet
Heat Jam Co.
“The company has a large
southwest distribution and their
jams and mustards are very reasonable
at only $9 and have a
great variety,” said Brown. “We
are starting with about eight flavors
until we can taste-test them
in the hopes of adding more.”
Brown said he is working
with 20 different suppliers, most
of them out of state. An Arizona
business woman with autism will
be providing wine and shopping
totes and tea towels. A young
business woman with Down’s
syndrome from the Midwest will
be providing her own line of pet
food and products.

are Gracie’s Doggie Delights,

impossible situation and their
kids are regressing. People
don’t understand their dayto-day
struggles, but yet people
are concerned with when their
nail salons will be open.
“For special ed families, it’s like
learning how to fly a plane while
it’s in the air and not even close to
being able to think about landing
because it’s still in the turbulence.”
Milman’s goal is simple:
to help parents, children, and
schools see that children receive
the guidance, education
and services they need.
“Schools didn’t have measurable
goals to begin with, so they
were already in a bad place, and
now we are in a pandemic,”
Milman said. “There is so much
more to be done. It starts with
changing things for one family
and that spreads. I came up
through ranks as a teacher and
worked for the state education

department, so I have sympathy
for the schools, but not nearly
as much as I have for families.”
When the pandemic struck,
Milman, like millions of
Americans, wondered whether her
business would survive. A former
Lynn EMT, Milman thought she
might have to reinstate her license
in order to pay the bills. Instead,
her business took off.
“I was in panic mode and
afraid that I was going to be out
of work, but the opposite happened,”
Milman said. “I have
had an amazing number of interesting
cases, like schools saying
they have to have meetings,
kids who have landed in hospitals
after 911 calls and nobody
knowing where to place them.”
Milman has seen a big uptick
in families seeking private residential
schools for their children,
many of whom lost critical services
Milman said they need, not
just to learn, but to live.
“Families say, ‘you haven’t met
my child’s needs, find a place that
can,’” she said. “It’s tough enough
For the second time in 2020,
customers of the Peabody
Municipal Light Plant (PMLP)
are getting a rate cut.
PMLP recently announced
that new Purchase Power & Fuel
Cost Adjustment (PP&FCA)
rates went into effect this month
and will remain in place through
the month of September.
“Each quarter, the PMLP
sets the rates charged to its customers
through changes to the
Purchased Power and Fuel Cost
Adjustment (PP&FCA),” said
Peabody Municipal Lighting
Commissioner Robert O.
Wheatley. “The PP&FCA is adjusted
based on PMLP’s cost
to purchase power, which we
get from a variety of different
sources, as well as other factors.
Having a diversified portfolio
helps to keep costs to our customers
stable over time and as
low as possible. The decreases in
costs that we are realizing today
are in part based on investments
made by the Peabody Municipal
Lighting Commission over time.”
The rate cut will save money
for residential and small commercial
customers, PLMP
stated in a recent press release.
The typical residential customer’s
bill will decrease by 1.5
percent, from $50.47 to $49.70
for a 500-kWh monthly usage.
A commercial customer who
uses 2,000 kWh per month will
see its bill decrease by 1.6 percent,
from $237.99 to $234.20.
Industrial customers will see a
slight increase of 0.6 percent
PMLP and the commissioners
of the Peabody Municipal Light
Commission (PMLC) said they
are very pleased to see lower
rates to help ease the financial
burden that many PLMP customers
face, especially given
the present COVID-19 crisis.
PLMP is governed by PMLC,
an elected five-member board.
The PMLC works with the
PMLP management team to
achieve PMLP’s goal of providing
reliable electric service to its customers
at the lowest possible cost.
The rate cut comes on the
heels of last quarter’s rate reductions
when rates were reduced
across all classes.
All told, since Jan. 1 of this
year, rates for residential customers
have decreased five
percent, giving a ratepayer with
monthly usage of 500 kWh an
average bill that is below $50.
The press release stated that
PP&FCA is adjusted quarterly to
reflect changes in the actual cost
of power purchased by PMLP,
as well as other factors. PMLP
says it is committed to continue
to monitor rates closely over
the next three months and will
adjust them accordingly in the
fourth quarter of 2020.

Administrative Assistant Candace “Candy” Levesque, left, and
Food Service Manager Grace Clarke working the concession
stand at an Essex Tech football game in 2018. Levesque will retire
next month after working at the school for more than two decades.
FOR THE WEEKLY NEWS
DANVERS — After a more
than-23 year career at Essex
North Shore Agricultural and
Technical School, Candace
“Candy” Levesque of Peabody
is retiring in August.
Superintendent Heidi Riccio
announced the Essex Tech administrative
assistant’s August
18 retirement this week. The retirement
of a longtime member
of the Essex Tech community.
“Candy has seen our district
undergo major change, in particular
the 15-year merger which
led to the opening of Essex Tech
as we know it today in 2014,”
Riccio said. “As such, she has
a wealth of knowledge of our
history. She’s been an integral
member of our community, and
a joy to work alongside. We will
miss her deeply, and wish her a
happy retirement.”
Levesque joined the school in
February 1997 when the district
was known as the North Shore
Regional Vocational School.
She first served as the administrative
assistant to the Student
Services coordinator and the
Special Education director.
In 1999, she became the executive
secretary and office
manager for then-Superintendent
Director Edmund W.
Barry Jr. She’s continued to
serve in that capacity since
then for four Superintendent-
Directors, including
Superintendent Riccio.
“My mother has always been
such a great role model for us,
showing that working hard,
being dedicated and always believing
in yourself allows you
to accomplish anything,” said
her daughter, Amanda Crosby,
who graduated from Essex Tech
in 1999 and studied marketing.
“I am who I am today because
of all the values she instilled in
me. She was there from the beginning
of the North Shore and
Essex Agricultural merger when
it was just an idea to it becoming
a reality. She has given so much
to the Essex North Shore community.
As an alumni, I am sad
for the community that she is
retiring as it truly is a loss for
them, but as her daughter, I am
ecstatic for her for all that she
has accomplished and what the
future holds for her.”
During her time, Levesque
has proved her value as a vital
member of the team as the
school underwent significant
changes. Starting in 1999,
Levesque helped then-Principal
(and later Superintendent-
Director) Amelia O’Malley
and Superintendent Director
Barry work with elected officials
on the merger of North
Shore Technical High School,
Essex Agricultural High School
and the Peabody Veterans
Memorial High School vocational
programs. Once the
merger was complete, the
Essex North Shore Agricultural
and Technical School District
opened in 2014.
“Fred Rogers once said,
‘Often when you think you’re
at the end of something, you’re
at the beginning of something
else,’” said Levesque.
“I’ve been grateful to work
with everyone at Essex Tech
for the last 23 years and to see
the entire community grow.
Vocational education offers
students an exceptional, unique
opportunity and it’s been an
honor to be a part of their experience.
I will miss everyone
dearly, but look forward to this
next chapter in my life.”
A retirement party may be
held for Levesque at a later date
depending on the state’s guidance
pertaining to social distancing
and large gatherings.

Fenwick’s Miano heading to Nichols
By Mike Alongi
Despite missing his senior season on the mound
this past spring, Bishop Fenwick’s Jake Miano is not
done playing baseball. Recently, the two-sport athlete
announced that he will continue his baseball career at
Division III Nichols College next season.
“I think Nichols is going to be a great fit for me,” said
Miano, who also played football at Fenwick. “I took a
trip there last August and spoke to the coaches, they
were very straightforward with what they expected
from me and I loved what I heard. Plus, I think it’s
going to be a great academic fit for me as well.”
Miano had a stellar 2019 season as a junior, going
5-0 with a 1.94 ERA. He also earned the win for the
Crusaders in the Division 3 North title game against a
strong Lynnfield team.
Miano ended up taking the momentum from that
North title game right through the summer and into the
fall season, when he was captain of a Fenwick team that
went to the Division 6 Super Bowl. In fact, Miano was
initially considering also playing football at Nichols,
but in the end he decided that would be taking on a little
too much.
“At the time when I was considering playing both
sports, I didn’t think I was done with playing football
because I was hurt and missed some time my senior
season. But in the end, I thought hard about it and decided
that it would just be too much to play both sports

for him.
in addition to keeping up with my schoolwork.”
The baseball team was hoping that the momentum
from last season would continue right through to spring,
but the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the season before
it could get started.
“Jake basically won that game for us in the Division
3 North final with how he pitched,” said Fenwick coach
Russ Steeves. “We were looking forward to another
great season this year. He was going to be our No. 1
pitcher and also a team captain. It’s a shame that we
didn’t get to play.”
“It stunk missing the season, but at the same time you
can’t dwell on it,” said Miano, who plans to study sports
management at Nichols. “It unfortunately happened to
everybody, so you just have to keep moving forward.”
Miano has moved forward to a new horizon this
summer, as he’s been taking part in the new upstart
Essex County Baseball League. The league has unofficially
taken the place of American Legion baseball in
the area this summer, as all American Legion games
have been canceled for the entire summer.
“You have no idea how good it feels to be back out
on the field, I can’t describe it,” said Miano. “It was
getting rough just sitting at home playing video games
and stuff. To be able to get back out and play has been
so great. There are a few tweaks to the games because
of COVID, but it’s just great to be out there playing.”
Miano plans on heading to Nichols in August to
begin his collegiate career, with new rules in place for
both his academics and athletics.
“Right now I have the option to go to school and participate
in a 50/50 schedule, where 50 percent of the
students go to class one day and the rest stay in their
dorms and do Zoom classes on the same day. Then we
alternate,” said Miano. “I’m leaning towards doing
that. I’d love to get the first semester out of the way and
not fall behind early.”

A gap year may outwit COVID-19
By Stacey Leasca
TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
LOS ANGELES — Janak Bhakta, a
soft-spoken 17-year-old from Tustin,
had big plans for 2020. He wanted to
spend time away from academics to
learn, grow and mature by traveling the
world. Then the coronavirus pandemic
struck and turned those plans to dust.
“The ideal plan was to travel internationally,
but obviously that’s not going to
happen,” Bhakta says about his planned
gap year. He filled out applications for
Outward Bound Costa Rica and NOLS
Baja, two leading outdoor and leadership
organizations, but both programs
were canceled due to travel restrictions
and health concerns.
Bhakta was still able to find the perfect
fit with the Colorado-based High
Mountain Institute, which puts gap-year
participants in national parks to assist in
local conservation efforts. This new plan
will cover only the first few months of
Bhakta’s yearlong journey.
“That’s what I’ll be doing for the
fall and then the winter,” he says. “The
spring is still up in the air.”
Bhakta is far from alone in wanting to
take the year off from higher education. As
more and more colleges and universities
move online because of coronavirus safety,
the appeal of a year off has been growing
as well. An April survey commissioned by
the American Council on Education shows
that one in five college students was unsure
about their plans for re-enrolling in
school for the fall. Although taking a gap
year isn’t high on young Americans’ to-do
lists, the current COVID-19 climate has
left many wondering if a year off from academics
is still an option.
Here’s what those interested in socially
distancing from college for a year
need to know.
WHAT IS A GAP YEAR?
As Ethan Knight, a gap-year alumnus
and executive director of the Gap Year
Assn., a Portland, Ore., nonprofit accreditation
and standard-setting organization
for gap-year programs, explains
it, a gap year is a “semester or a year
of experiential learning typically taken
after high school and prior to college
or post-secondary education in order to
deepen one’s practical, professional and
personal awareness.”
According to Knight, a growing
number of people are searching for “gap
year” online as an alternative to going
back to school right now.
“We were seeing a 300% traffic increase
on certain pages and, broadly
speaking, roughly 150% increase over
the whole site,” Knight says of the traffic
to the Gap Year Assn. website, gapyearassociation.org.
However, he wants to make one thing
clear: that his own definition of a gap
year may be too rigid. He says a gap year
doesn’t have to be taken so literally as a
one-year commitment.
“It’s not one size fits all,” Knight says,
noting that young people can spend
a few months, a semester, or a year or
longer on a gap experience.
“Gap year gets thought of as a thing,
and I like to suggest that it’s more a
recipe,” he says, adding that a good gap
year has four basic ingredients: a healthy
heaping of volunteering, a bit of internship
experience, a dash of paid work and
a sprinkling of “free-radical” time.

12, 2020 in Tustin, Calif. Bhakta is taking a gap year during the coronavirus
pandemic and will be traveling around to different national parks to assist in
conservation projects. (Jason Armond/Los Angeles Times/MBR)
“Leave a little bit of space for the unknown,”
he says, “because, partially,
what you’re doing is exploring whether
this thing that you love to do could potentially
be the thing that you’re paid to
do for the rest of your life.”
Also, there’s one more important thing
to note. You don’t have to be a teenager
to take a gap year. If you feel you need
a transition, no matter what stage of life
you’re in, odds are there’s a program for
you. Just ask Samantha Warfield, a representative
for the Corporation for National
and Community Service, which runs
AmeriCorps, the program that’s essentially
synonymous with the American gap year.
“You don’t have to be 18 or a college-age
student to do AmeriCorps,”
she says. “We have lots of programs for
everyone.”
WILL MY SCHOOL ALLOW
A GAP YEAR?
There is one major caveat students and
parents must consider before committing
to a gap year, and that’s whether a chosen
college or university will allow it.
This year, many schools are taking
away the option to defer, or they’re
adding in-depth rules for freshman deferrals.
Cal State Fresno, for example,
will allow incoming freshmen to defer
until spring 2021, but students aren’t
permitted to take college or university
classes at other schools during this time.
If they do, their deferral will be voided,
and those individuals will have to reapply
as transfer students.
The University of Southern California
(where, full disclosure, this reporter
works as an adjunct professor) is a bit
more stringent. As its undergraduate admissions
website explains, “In specific
cases relating to medical issues, religious
obligations or required military/
national service, admission deferrals
may be available. However, deferral requests
for other reasons will not generally
be granted.”
WHAT PROGRAMS ARE
AVAILABLE?
Although galavanting around the
globe this year on a quest for self-discovery
may not be possible, there are
still solid options available for those
wishing to take a gap year.
“We believe every American should
have a chance to serve,” Warfield says.
“If you decide to give a year of service
through something like AmeriCorps,
we’ve got something for you.”
That list of programs available through
her organization includes the wellknown
AmeriCorps NCCC, through
which participants perform such work
as clearing trails at national parks or
building homes for those in need. It also
includes AmeriCorps State and National,
which acts as the “matchmaker of national
service.”
Those who are actively seeking service
programs or work can search
through hundreds of options on the
AmeriCorps State and National website.
Open programs currently include photography
volunteers in Vermont and data
analysis volunteers in Washington, D.C.,
as well as mentors for middle-school
students in central Texas. Interested gappers
can also search for programs still
accepting applications through the Gap
Year Assn.’s search portal.
However, that’s far from an exhaustive
list of options. Students such as
Mateo Bolado from Berkeley, Calif., are
exploring career options through internship
programming online and in person.
“As more and more of my friends decided
to go to college, I kind of just followed
them,” Bolado says. “But as soon
as I got to school, I felt this deep sense
of regret.”
Before the coronavirus pandemic took
hold, Bolado knew he wanted to take
time off to discover more about himself
and his potential future. He’s currently
working as a virtual intern for a biotech
company and exploring options for the
spring, including global travel and language
immersion programs.
“COVID only made me feel more secure
in the decision I made,” the infectiously
self-assured 19-year-old says.
CAN I MAKE MONEY?
This month, the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York released an analysis that
said taking a gap year could cost people
$90,000 of lifetime earning potential by
delaying college, thus their careers, a
year. However, the analysis didn’t take
into account the social and mental benefits
of a gap year. Nor did it take into
account the fact that you can still make
money or earn college credit while
taking a gap year.
Knight and Warfield want to make it
clear that taking a gap year for travel,
learning or service isn’t reserved for the
elite who can afford it. It’s an opportunity
for everyone, and people can find
housing and paid work too. As Warfield
explains, there are several AmeriCorps
programs that come with monthly stipends.
That extra cash can come on top
of free housing and a daily food stipend.
When people complete their gap year
of service, they’ll also become eligible
for a Segal AmeriCorps Education Award,
which can be used to pay for qualified
higher-education costs. That could include
traditional two- or four-year schools or
certification programs, or the award could
be used to pay back student loan debt.
Beyond cash, gap year participants
may also be able to obtain college credits
for their time. The Gap Year Assn. works
with organizations that qualify through
its stringent accreditation program to
offer college credit at Portland State
University in Oregon. According to
Knight, students can earn up to 12 semester
credits through their gap year,
depending on what program they select.
WHAT WILL I REALLY GAIN?
Ask anyone who’s ever taken a gap
year about his or her experience, and
odds are you’ll sit through a list of
positives. Beyond personal anecdotes,
there’s hard data to back up their claims.
According to a survey by the Gap
Year Assn. and Temple University in
Philadelphia, those who participated in a
gap year on average had shorter times to
graduation and higher GPAs compared
with national norms. These results appeared
long-lasting into adulthood.
Another possible bright side to a gap
year? According to the survey, 86% of
gap-year participants reported that they
are satisfied or very satisfied with their
jobs; 63% reported participating in the
2014 election cycle; and 89% reported
participating in community service —
all far outpacing national averages. Also,
more than 80% of survey participants
said they’d recommend taking a gap
year to someone considering it.
The survey authors concluded that
these benefits make it imperative that
gap-year programs appeal to and recruit
more diverse participants. The survey
found that the majority of its participants
were white, native English-speaking
women from families with an estimated
household income of more than $100,000
a year. Additionally, 35% of gap-year participants
attended private schools.
The survey also found that gap-year
participants considered “being in a new
and different environment” the most
meaningful part of the experience.
Bolado says that was paramount in his
decision to ta ke a gap year.
“In the journey into adulthood, there’s
so much anxiety and so much worry,” he
says, noting that many of his peers find
comfort in the straight-to-college path
with their lives a bit more plotted out for
them. For him, this is a year, despite the
coronavirus, to become m ore “mature,
curious and motivated.”
“I gave myself a year to mature and
become a little more independent,” he says,
“and then go back to school with the right
mind-set.”

Northeast Metro
Tech offers virtual
summer instruction
COURTESY PHOTO | NORTHEAST METRO TECH
Staff put together kits to help make the virtual program more
interactive for students.
W A K E F I E L D —
Superintendent David DiBarri
and Department Head of
Humanities Joseph O’Brien Jr.
are pleased to announce this
year’s Summer Enrichment
Program will be held virtually
due to the COVID-19 pandemic
and begin next week.
Starting Monday, July 13,
more than 180 students, including
ones from Lynnfield and
Peabody, will be taking part in
the two-week program designed
to give incoming freshmen an
insight into the programs offered
at Northeast Metro Tech.
While this program is usually
held in person, this year’s will
be held virtually using Zoom
and Google Classrooms due to
the COVID-19 global health
pandemic.
However, the overall design
of the program will mirror the
way it’s been held in the past.
Students will cycle through six
of the eight different programs
over the next two weeks: automotive
technology, baking, cosmetology,
culinary arts, design
and visual communications,
drafting and design, electrical
work and STEM.
Learning will be two-fold.
Teachers will create a Zoom
presentation to give students
insight into each program and
then lead students in an interactive
lesson using at-home
kits created for students that
were dropped off at their homes
earlier this week. For example,
students trying out the electrical
program demonstration
will use a 9-volt battery to turn
on a light, those in the drafting
and design program will design
a home and those in the culinary
program will be given the
recipe and tools needed to bake
bread.
Students will also be given
Google Chromebooks and a
summer reading assignment as
part of the program.
“The amount of students who
have signed up for this year’s
programs shows just how important
it is in preparing them
for the fall,“ said O’Brien,
who heads the program. “The
staff working on the Summer
Enrichment Program have been
doing a great job getting everything
prepared and creating
interactive kits so students can
have a hands-on experience
while partaking at home to
gain more insight into the work
they’re interested in.”
This is the 20th year that the
Summer Enrichment Program
has been held.
“Joe and the rest of the staff
who put together this program
for our newest students
have really taken this challenge
head on and created an
amazing opportunity for the
incoming freshmen to have
this experience while we continue
remote learning due to
the COVID-19 pandemic,”
Superintendent DiBarri said.
“We look forward to welcoming
students at the start
of the program next week and
hope they have an incredible
experience.”
Anyone with questions
about the program can contact
O’Brien at jobrien@northeastmetrotech.com.
