Police Academy, Peabody style

By Anne MArie ToBin

If you’ve ever wanted to learn the ins and

outs of what it’s like to work in law enforcement,

then this fall’s Peabody Police Citizens

Academy is right up your alley.

The Academy is a unique 10-week program

allowing local residents to go behind the scenes

of the Police Department and get an insider’s

view of the daily duties of police officers, dispatchers,

clerical staff and others who work

within the department.

Captain Scott Richards, the founder of the

program, said the department is excited to resume

the program after the pandemic forced

cancellation of the spring session.

“We were a little bit on the fence about it,

but with everything going on, we felt it was important

to not only educate our citizens about

what we do, but also to hopefully dispel some

of the negativity that has been focused on the

police,” he said. “The program has always been

very enjoyable for us, and I think that people

come away with a newfound appreciation for

us.”

The program covers a variety of topics including

criminal investigations, State Police

They just don’t make ‘em like they

used to.

Whoever coined that cliche must

have had Theodore “Ted” Lazarakis

in mind, who celebrated his 103rd

birthday this month.

Not only is he the oldest military veteran

living in Peabody, he is also setting

a record of sorts as one of approximately

300,000 World War II veterans

still alive, and still able to talk about it.

“Being the oldest veteran is Peabody

is something I feel very good about

and kind of proud. I served for 4 1/2

years and was wounded twice, so I

consider myself lucky to make it to

103,” Lazarakis said.

“Ted is near and dear to our

hearts,” said Peabody Veterans Affairs

Director Steve Patten. “Ted is a great

American. Despite his small stature,

Ted stood tall and put his life on the

crime scene processing, crime

prevention, community policing

and motor vehicle stops, in which

officers are used as role players.

“We do it at night to show

how dangerous and unpredictable

motor vehicle stops can

be,” said Richards. “People

need to know the main thing

is to cooperate when they get

stopped. People get nervous, I

feel the same way, but you have

to stay calm, get past that and

comply and that tends to take

care of the situation.

“The overriding thing is if

you think you are wrong to have

been stopped, there is a forum

for that, but you have to comply

with the police. It’s not the time

to resist. Fighting or resisting is

not the answer.”

Other sessions include firearms,

detectives, school resource

officers, domestic violence

and canine policing,

featuring Akiba, a Belgian

Malinois who came on board

in January, and his handler,

Officer Corey Salvo.

Richards said the use of

force session, conducted by

Officer Mark Saia, a department

representative to the

North Eastern Massachusetts

Law Enforcement Council, allows

participants to learn about

tasers, bean bag guns and tactical

vests, cruisers and SWAT

vans as well as how rapid response,

dive and SWAT teams

operate.

“This class will be emphasized

this year in view of what is happening

these days,” said Richards.

Essex County District Attorney

Jon Blodgett is back to teach a

session on the court system.

“Initially we approached his

office just looking for a DA,

but Jon, a Peabody guy, insisted

on teaching the class himself,”

Richards said. “He talks about

some of the programs his office

has for offenders, and it’s just

an honor to have him.”

New this year is the CRASE

(Civilian Response to Active

Shooters Events) session.

“It will cover things like mass

casualty type things and active

mass shooters situations,” said

Richards. “We think it’s useful

because a lot of folks work in

crowded business situations and

can benefit from having this

knowledge.”

Added bonuses include a

complete tour of the police station,

as well as the department’s

shooting range where participants

have a chance to try their

hands at shooting.

Richards said a primary purpose

of the program is to enlighten the

public about the role that police

officers play in their communities.

“People need to understand

what police officers go through

to deter a potentially dangerous

situation,” he said. “We want

people to know that it’s an extremely

difficult job. We are humans,

not robots, and we want

people to understand the truth

of how we operate.”

The program, now in its fourth

year, is free and runs Wednesday

nights from 6-9 p.m., from Sept.

16-Nov. 18. This year, due to

social distancing requirements,

all sessions will be held at the

Northshore Mall in the former

Banana Republic storefront,

thanks to General Manager

Mark Whiting.

“Mark has been fantastic offering

us this space,” Richards

said. “He offered us a few

choices, and this one really fits

our needs perfectly.”

scholarship is awarded annually

to a medical school student

who resided and completed high

school in Essex County and has

an interest in cancer treatment

lives were impacted by cancer.

“I was quite excited and

grateful and I am honored to have

been selected among other accomplished

applicants of Essex

County,” said Camelo. “I recall

receiving the phone call and I was

just in shock that I was fortunate

enough to have been selected.”

Camelo graduated from

Johns Hopkins University with

a Bachelor of Science in biology

with a Spanish minor. He

was a member of the Phi Delta

Theta Fraternity and Blue Key

Society as well as acting as a

residential advisor. While at

Johns Hopkins, he volunteered

as a bilingual patient advocate

and also served as a medical

scribe at Lahey Clinic. He is

currently studying medicine at

at Cornell University.

Camelo said he was inspired

to pursue a degree in medicine

began after receiving an MRI

for tinnitus when he was 10

years old. After the MRI, his

doctor spoke to his family in

their native Spanish language.

Accustomed to translating

for his parents, Camelo had met

Latina nurses and healthcare providers,

but this was his first encounter

with a Latina physician.

From that moment on,

Camelo said his goal was to “to

empower patients within the

patient physician relationship”

and to improve cancer outcomes

for minorities and low-income

individuals in medically underserved

communities.

Although the son of two immigrants,

who did not attend

college, Camelo said “his background

was not going to hold

him back.”

Camelo worked on projects pertaining

to the metabolic characteristics

of Pancreatic Ductal

challenges of both diagnosing

a strong interest in gastroenterology,

cancer, and preventive

health. He said a professor once

commented that Camelo was

“eager to learn the challenging

material and techniques in the

lab and will make an excellent

and caring physician.”

While the presentation ceremony

was held virtually, BNCA

FROM PAGE 1

BY ANNE MARIE TOBIN

Things are starting to look a

little more like normal at City

Hall. Despite the drought, the

grass is still green and members

of the public are gradually

gaining greater access to the

building and city services.

The building opened to the

public, by appointment only,

last week. Beginning next

week, the city will offer expanded

services to give residents

more options in how

they transact their business.

The city plans to set up two

tents for service, sidewalk or

curbside-style, outside in front

of the building for residents

who are uncomfortable about

entering the building who

nonetheless need to communicate

directly with City Hall

employees.

“We have started to open

the building now and it has

been open for appointments

since last week. We’re not

getting many people, but it

was important to open for appointments,”

said Mayor Ted

Bettencourt. “The next step for

us is starting a program where

we will have two tents out front

with greeters along with people

who will take in information

and set up meetings with the

different departments or even

the different departments will

have people go out and meet

with people.”

The tents will be manned

Lazarakis earned a Purple

Heart and Bronze Star for

heroism after being injured

by German shrapnel

in Faymonville, Belgium in

January, 1945 at the Battle of

the Bulge, one of the bloodiest

battles of World War II. The

injury, evacuating fellow squad

members before being taken to

a Belgium hospital, where he

spent one month recovering.

A 1987 issue of “The Bulge

Bugle,” the official publication

of Battle of the Bulge veterans,

reported that more than half of

Lazarakis’ company, known as

“The Big Red One,” (Company

B, 16th Infantry Regiment, 1st

Infantry Division) were either

killed or injured.

Two months after rejoining his

company, Lazarakis was injured

in April, 1945 earning an oak leaf

cluster (equivalent to a second

Purple Heart) before being discharged

on July 24, 1945.

“He recovered both times and

went back to his original unit,

which is the way The Big Red

One operates,” his nephew Nick

Lazarakis said. “They wanted to

reassign him, but he wouldn’t

allow it. I think he nearly ended

up in the brig.”

The Newark, N.J., native was

drafted at the age of 23 in 1941

and sent to Fort Bragg, N.C.

for a one-year tour. After Pearl

Harbor was bombed in 1941,

Lazarakis was stationed at

Patterson, N.J. and then Iceland,

where he initially worked as an

artillery guard.

“He told me that out of the

blue one day someone came up

to him and asked him if he really

enjoyed standing around all

day, so he was eventually convinced

to go to military cooking

school,” Nick said.

After being discharged,

Lazarakis returned home

and purchased the Parkview

Luncheonette near Lynn

every day from 8:30 a.m. to 2

p.m. Bettencourt said if something

needs immediate attention,

“we’ll send it right up.”

For other requests, such as dog

licenses and marriage certificates,

Bettencourt said the business

will be completed within

24 hours of the request, adding,

“which is kind of what we’ve

been doing now anyway.”

“This is a fantastic way to

have City Hall reopen with

safety protocols in place,” said

City Council President Tom

Rossignoll. “It’s been a long

time coming and I know a lot of

people missed interacting with

the employees for a lot of reasons,

so this is a great way to go

about reopening.

Bettencourt said the tents

are just the first steps in what

he hopes will be a gradual reopening

of the building to the

public.

“What I’m hoping is we will

be able to get into the building

once the weather gets colder,

but the greeters will still be

there for the city,” he said

“It’s not going to be fully operational

where the doors are

wide open, but it’s going to

something offering much more

access every week. That’s why

having the greeters will be so

important, they are going to be

so instrumental.”

According to Bettencourt, all

departments are operating on

rotating schedules. A few offices

have been fully staffed including

the City Clerk’s office,

the tax collector’s office, the

health department and office of

veterans services.

“We’ve been open with

people in here every day so we

have been operating fully, the

only difference is the building

was closed to the public,”

Bettencourt said.

The move is just another in

a series of the city’s attempt

to resume pre-pandemic practices

for the conduct of city

business. In mid-August, the

School Committee voted to return

to in-person meetings. The

meetings, held at the Higgins

Middle School, are now broadcast

live on Peabody Access

Telecommunications (PAT).

On August 27, the City

Council followed suit and held

its first in-person meeting at

the Wiggin Auditorium since

late February/early March. As

with the School Committee, the

meetings are limited to committee

members and necessary

staff and are broadcast live on

PAT and are also available for

Common, serving three shifts

of General Electric employees.

At his side was his wife of more

than 50 years, Lillian, who died

in 2007.

Patten said that Lazarakis is

“wisdom personified.

“All combat veterans have

their stories, yet real heroes

like Ted can walk past you on

the street and you’d never know

it,” he said. “They don’t ask for

anything, but they’d do it all

over again without hesitation.

That’s who Ted is to me.

“He is one of our city’s treasures.

I don’t care who you are,

if you spend some time with

Ted you’re guaranteed to learn

something.”

“We celebrated in shifts because

Until recently, Lazarakis was

license last year.

All his nephew could say was

“what else would you expect

of the greatest generation of all

time?”

Lazarakis isn’t the only

member of his family to hit the

“I want to make it clear to

people that say, ‘how can you

isn’t open?’ That’s just not true,

City Hall is open, all of our employees

North Shore Community

Action Programs. Inc., which

provides financial support, food

and rental assistance to Peabody

residents, is getting help from

the Essex County Community

Foundation (ECCF).

ECCF distributed $5.6 million

in grant money to North

Shore Community and other

organizations in the spring and

early summer to offset financial

problems related to the

COVID-19 pandemic.

“ECCF has received an enormous

amount of support for

our Essex County COVID-19

Response Fund, and with that

support we were able to make

timely and impactful emergency

grants to so many nonprofits

during a critical time,” said

Carol Lavoie Schuster, ECCF’s

vice president for grants, nonprofits

and donor services.

Much of that support came

from the Massachusetts

COVID-19 Relief Fund, the statewide

philanthropic fund initiated

by First Lady Lauren Baker and

the One8 Foundation to support

those across the Commonwealth

most impacted by COVID-19.

This fund, which was resourced

by private philanthropy

and individual donors, worked in

concert with regional community

foundations to strategically fill in

where gaps are pronounced.

The Massachusetts

COVID-19 Relief Fund has now

transitioned from collecting centralized

funds to encouraging

direct donations to charitable

organizations across the state –

like ECCF and its Essex County

COVID-19 Response Fund –

that are making an impact.

But with its final wave of

$650,000 in funding to ECCF

in July, support from the

Massachusetts COVID-19

Relief Fund now totals more

than $4 million.

“The impact of this $4 million

on Essex County nonprofit organizations

working so hard to

help people weather this storm

has been incredible,” said ECCF

President and CEO Beth Francis.

Kristen Reed: Five ways to boost energy

It’s 3 p.m. and you’re only

halfway through your to-do

list, but until you get a caffeine

or sugar fix all you can

think about is a nap. If you’re

tired of feeling tired, you

are not alone. We’re being

groomed to accept lifestyles

that leave us hurried, hustled,

frazzled, busier-the-better,

and running on fumes. But,

if we don’t have energy, we

cannot live at our fullest potential,

no matter how much

money we have, how many

to-do’s we’ve crossed off our

list, or the things we own.

Energy is life!

If your demanding work

schedule and overload of personal

commitments have you

feeling exhausted, I’ve got

some good news. You can

quickly and easily boost your

energy and shed that fatigue

feeling with some simple

tweaks.

So, put down that coffee and

chocolate bar. To the rescue: 5

simple ways to boost your energy

all day. Pick one strategy

to commit to today!

Choose healthy

foods and water

Our nutrition plays one of

the largest roles in our energy

levels. Nutritious food choices

keep our blood sugar stable,

avoiding that sugar crash, and

can help boost our energy and

keep us fueled and ready to

tackle the day.

Omega-3 fatty acids found

in fatty fish, such as salmon

and sardines, chia and flax

seeds and nuts, can help you

feel energized. Dark, leafy

green vegetables are also

filled with vitamins and nutrients

and are an excellent food

to reach for when your energy

level is low.

On the other hand, eating

processed foods and sugar

makes us tired and groggy,

increasing cravings due to

the blood sugar roller-coaster

they induce. Hunger hormones

like ghrelin and leptin will be

yelling at you every couple of

hours, making you feel bad if

you don’t eat.

Dehydration is a major cause

of fatigue, since fluids transport

nutrients and oxygen to our

cells and organs. Make it a habit

to take your water bottle with

you all the time and aim for half

your body weight in ounces of

water per day to stay properly

hydrated.

Cut caffeine

I know what you’re probably

thinking: I need my

caffeine to have energy. But,

I’m here to let you in on a

secret-you don’t need it, and

can actually have more energy

without it. More often

than not, coffee creates a

jittery high, followed by an

energy crash that leaves you

Kristen Reed offers up five ways to boost your energy.

needing more and more, and

feeling hungry.

Caffeine stimulates adrenalin

release and blocks a relaxing

brain chemical called

adenosine. This jazzes up

your body and produces a

stress reaction. Once the initial

boost wears off you’re

left feeling even more tired

than before. After giving up

caffeine, you’ll likely find

yourself sleeping better,

feeling calmer and more relaxed

and having increased

sustained energy! While you

cut the coffee, some better-for-you

beverages include

iced or hot tea, matcha green

tea, and fruit-infused water or

sparkling water.

Breathe

We tend to take short,

shallow breaths through our

mouths and hold our breath

without realizing it, especially

when we’re stressed. If that’s

your breathing pattern, you’re

depriving your body of oxygen,

and less oxygen means

less energy.

Try to concentrate on deep

breathing a few times a day.

Breathe slowly and deeply

in and out through your nose

to a count of at least five. Be

mindful of your chest rising as

you inhale and falling as you

exhale. I also love the 4-7-8

breath, which is inhaling to a

count of four, holding for seven

seconds, and exhaling to a

count of eight. This intentional

breathing will become more automatic

throughout the day and

it will make a huge difference to

your state of mind and energy

level.

Earlier consistent bedtime

Did you know that being

sleep deprived can increase

your stress hormones by

about 40 percent? I don’t

need to tell you the downsides

of sleep deprivation,

you already know you feel

achy, slow, groggy, and tired,

and your risk for a variety of

health problems and diseases

increases.

Unfortunately, a large percentage

of people are walking

around in a constant state of

mild sleep deprivation, getting

six or less hours per night.

Or, for many people, they’re

sleeping for long periods, but

not getting enough of the deep,

restorative sleep that is what the

body really needs.

It’s no surprise that energy

starts with a good night’s sleep,

but in today’s busy world we’re

not getting enough. Adults need

eight to nine hours a night to restore

and regenerate their minds

and bodies, while children need

10 to 12 hours, and teens nine

to 10.

Try heading to bed a halfhour

earlier for the next few

nights, then add another halfhour

for a few nights. Continue

adding to your sleep until you

can wake up without an alarm,

feeling refreshed.

Move throughout the day

(bonus points if it’s outside!)

You don’t have to do hours

of cardio if you don’t want to,

and you can reap the benefits of

simple movements throughout

the day, short high-intensity

workouts, and long, enjoyable

hikes and bike rides.

When you’re too tired to

even think straight, exercising

is probably the last thing you

want to do, but it will give us

energy! The good news is that

any activity that gets your heart

pumping for more than 10 minutes

will increase oxygen to

your system, which will give

you more energy. It all counts!

If you’ve only got a few minutes,

you can still get in some

movement. Here are some

simple ideas:

Stand up and stretch at your

desk; take the stairs whenever

possible; walk during phone

calls and if you get any type of

lunch break, reserve half of it

for a quick walk outside—just

being in the fresh air is a great

way to feel revived.

Bonus tip:

Do an energy audit

Notice when you feel your

most energetic and your most

depleted. Are you a morning

person, waking up raring to go?

Or, do you find you need some

time to settle into the day and

hit your energetic groove in the

afternoon? Based on your personal

preferences, time block

and schedule tasks around your

most energetic times to optimize

your energy and work

with your body.

MEDFORD – During

Childhood Cancer Awareness

Month this September, the

American Red Cross encourages

eligible donors to give

blood or platelets to support

kids, teens and young adults

battling cancer, as well as others

in need of transfusions.

The National Cancer Institute

estimates that more than 15,000

children and adolescents in the

U.S. are diagnosed with cancer

each year. Childhood cancer patients

may need blood products

on a regular basis during chemotherapy,

surgery or treatment

for complications.

Cancer and cancer treatments

can put patients at risk for low

red blood cell and platelet

counts. Some types of chemotherapy

can damage bone

marrow, lowering the production

of red blood cells and platelets.

Cancers such as leukemia

and lymphoma attack the bone

marrow as well.

Blood and platelet transfusions

can enable patients to receive

critical treatments needed

to fight and survive cancer.

Blood and platelet donations

are needed to ensure blood

products are available for pediatric

cancer patients and others

throughout this pandemic. As

a thank-you, those who come

to give Sept. 4-8 will receive

a pair of Red Cross branded

socks, while supplies last.

Make an appointment to donate

by downloading the free

Red Cross Blood Donor App,

visiting RedCrossBlood.org,

calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-

800-733-2767) or enabling the

Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa

Echo device. Blood drives are

also essential in helping ensure

blood is available for patients

this winter.

To learn more and sign up to

host a blood drive this fall and

winter, visit RedCrossBlood.

org/HostADrive.

Who blood donations help

Ansley Gilich is an outgoing,

kind, funny and very smart

7-year-old who enjoys dancing

and singing with her family and

friends. Earlier this year, Ansley

was diagnosed with b-cell acute

lymphoblastic leukemia – the

most common type of childhood

cancer – and has needed blood

products during treatment.

“She is beautiful inside and

out and is kicking cancer’s

butt like the little warrior princess

that she is,” said Michelle

Gilich, Ansley’s mother, who

joined family to host a blood

drive to give back to other patients

who also need blood. “We

know there’s a need for blood

products due to the coronavirus

pandemic, and we want to help

as much as we can.”

Donors can do good and look

good this September when they

donate blood or platelets with the

Red Cross and get a free haircut

coupon from Sport Clips Haircuts

– a proud supporter of childhood

cancer research – during the annual

Saving Lives Never Looked

So Good campaign.

Those who come to give

blood or platelets Sept. 1-30

will receive a coupon for a free

Ryan Knight commits to Hartford

By Daniel Kane

PEABODY — When Ryan

Knight joined the Peabody baseball

team, it didn’t take long for

head coach Mark Bettencourt to

realize the kind of talent his team

was getting.

“Ryan has been starting in

our program since he was a

freshman,” Bettencourt said.

“It was clear he was a real impact

player right away and that

he was going to eventually play

college ball somewhere. It was

just a matter of where.”

Knight figured out the where

before the start of his senior

season with the Tanners this

spring, committing to play

Division I baseball at the

University of Hartford.

After the cancellation of his

junior season last spring, Knight

was glad to put the search for

a home at the next level to rest

and find a landing spot with the

Hawks.

“This whole coronavirus pandemic

made recruiting so tough,”

Knight said. “This summer, only

Division III schools could come

to our games and it was one of

the best seasons I’ve ever had so

that was frustrating. Fortunately,

my head coach did a great job

helping out and sending videos

of my tape to schools.”

Knight went on a number of

trips and tours before finding the

right fit.

“I went out and toured a

couple places before I finally

ended up at Hartford,” Knight

said. “I just loved it there. I love

the coaching staff, the program

and the campus is really beautiful.

It definitely seemed like

the right fit.”

The Hawks, who compete in

the America East Conference,

are coached by Justin Blood.

Bettencourt has no doubts that

Blood and Hartford are going

to be pleased with their newest

addition.

“I know coach (Blood) at

Hartford,” Bettencourt said.

“He’s going to be very happy

with who he’s getting. (Knight)

is a great player and person.”

Knight has made plays for

the Tanners in centerfield for a

number of years and brings a big

bat to the lineup as well.

“He has the discipline at plate

that allows him to not only hit for

contact but also hit for power,”

Bettencourt said. “His baseball

IQ helps on the bases and he has

all the fundamentals and intangibles

that a college coach would

look for.”

“His work ethic is through the

roof,” Bettencourt said. “The

leading by example is something

that always impressed me

about him. He’s not a big talker

or a rah-rah guy, he just comes

everyday and busts his tail. The

reason I really respect him is that

he’s not only good on the field

but also in the classroom. He’s a

good person. His baseball ability

is a mirror of the type of person

he is.”

During his time with the

Tanners, Knight also got to learn

from a number of gifted athletes

that helped him reach his full

potential.

“Being here (in Peabody)

helped me a ton,” Knight said.

“I learned a lot from (former

Tanners star) Jake Gustin

coming in my freshman year and

he’s at Bryant (University) now.

He really made me realize how

hard you have to work to get

where you want to be.”

While he might’ve missed

out on being on the diamond

last spring, Knight got to prove

his worth and play ball in the

Essex County Baseball League

that worked as a replacement

for a canceled American Legion

season this summer. Now, he’s

ready to set big goals for his senior

season.

“It definitely takes a lot of

pressure off committing to

Hartford,” Knight said. “Now

that I have where I’m going I

don’t need to worry about that

and can focus on this season.

Hopefully we make a big

comeback this year and I’ll be

shooting for league MVP.”

Peabody centerfielder Ryan Knight has committed to continue

his baseball career at the University of Hartford following his

senior season this coming spring.

Peabody a step closer to fall sports

By Anne Marie Tobin

The dominoes continue to

tumble as schools around the

North Shore make decisions

about fall sports. Peabody is

the latest district taking action.

Last Tuesday evening, the

Peabody Athletic and Wellness

Subcommittee voted unanimously

to move ahead with

fall sports in the Fall Sports I

season.

While the initial vote approved

the fall season for hybrid

students, the subcommittee also

voted to allow remote-learning

students to participate. The recommendation

still needs to go

before the School Committee.

Before the meeting, Peabody

Mayor Ted Bettencourt,

who also chairs the School

Committee, said he feels

strongly in favor of having a

traditional fall season.

“I see sports as an essential

part of your academic and

school experience,” Bettencourt

said. “It’s the same with the performing

arts, which is just as

important.”

Earlier, Peabody students and

supporters gathered at Higgins

Middle School last Tuesday

evening before the meeting

for a “Save Our Season” rally

to make their voices heard.

Many Tanner student-athletes

spoke up during the rally, including

several fall sports team

captains.

“It was kind of like we got

stripped of something we’ve

been anticipating for four years,”

said senior Amber Kiricoples,

a captain of the girls soccer

team. “We’re all best friends

and we’ve been waiting for this

moment to have our senior year

and be captains together. We’ve

had practices going, we were

ready to play and then all of the

sudden those were taken away

and now it’s everything.”

“There are other leagues

around us that get to play,”

said Aja Alimonti, another senior

captain on the girls soccer

team. “I know there are some

cities within (the Northeastern

Conference) that are hot spots

and they physically can’t play.

But you wait 12 years of your

life to finally be a senior, to finally

get recognized for all the

hard work you do, and now it’s

just kind of taken away.

“I hope the school committee

knows to be more sensitive to

our feelings,” Alimonti said.

“If you were still a high school

kid in our shoes, you would

100 percent vote yes. But if

you’ve already been through

high school, played sports, that

part of your life is over for you.

We’re about to experience the

last part of one of the best four

years of our lives. They’re just

making these decisions without

being sensitive to our feelings.”

“Generally, I think sports

is a huge incentive to go to

school,” said Kyle Joyce, a junior

captain of the boys soccer

team. “Waking up at five in the

morning just to get to school

at 7 a.m., playing or practicing

after school is the reason why

a lot of people look forward to

going. I’m not saying everybody

isn’t going to go to school,

sports is just a huge incentive.”

Less than two weeks ago,

Peabody students participated

in another rally -- along with

other NEC schools -- in downtown

Danvers to protest the decision

by the conference’s principals

to postpone fall sports

until the “Fall Sports II” season

in late February. The NEC principals

voted, 9-0-3, to postpone

all fall sports.

At the time of that decision,

there were five NEC communities

-- Lynn, Saugus, Salem,

Revere and Winthrop -- that

were designated as red districts

that would be forced to postpone

all fall sports until Fall

Sports II, which is February

through April.

However, since then, both

Saugus and Salem have moved

into the yellow designation that

would require a school committee

vote on whether to play

in September. NEC members

Swampscott and Peabody are

also designated as yellow, while

all the rest -- Beverly, Danvers,

Gloucester, Masconomet and

Marblehead -- are designated as

either green or unshaded.

Marblehead was the first

community to say that it would

explore avenues for holding

sports in the Fall Sports I

season, voting unanimously in a

school committee meeting last

week to give the principal and

athletic director permission to

do so. There has been no commitment

made by Marblehead

to play sports in the Fall Sports

I season, only to explore potential

ways to safely play this fall.

At the Peabody subcommittee

meeting, parent Matt

Smith said he has three kids

who played or will be playing

sports at Peabody High.

“My oldest son just graduated

and was a captain of a

spring sport,” Smith said. “He

said after the spring season was

canceled, all he cared about

was playing one more game

with his uniform, with his team.

It doesn’t matter if we play

Danvers six times, my kids just

want to play. In my house sports

is a big part of our household.”

“Helpful tips”

for a S-M-O-O-T-H

trouble-free move!

Designate a drawer for

essentials such as

sheets and towels for

quick access the first

night you move into

your new home.

Plan a garage/yard

sale before you move.

Fresh coffee, baking

soda, or charcoal in a

sock, placed inside

your refrigerator will

keep the inside smelling

fresh and clean.

Have something to sell?

We can help!

Find great

deals in the

classifieds!

Pack your current

phone book — it’s a

quick easy reference to

the folks back home.

Place pictures in

boxes between sheets

or blankets to give

them extra protection.

Pack plates vertically

— on edge — rather

than stacked.
