O’Shea Mansion on Washington<br />
Street — where work<br />
is underway to convert the<br />
155-year-old property into a<br />
bed-and-breakfast complete<br />

“It’ll be little things like<br />
that,” he said. “You don’t typically<br />

Since Greeley bought the<br />

worked to renovate the historic<br />

Welch School<br />
work ready<br />
to begin<br />
By anne Marie ToBin<br />
After many years of hopeful planning,<br />
the construction phase of the William A.<br />
Welch Elementary School renovation<br />
project is about to begin.<br />
Local elected officials, members of<br />
the school community, and invited guests<br />
stood by proudly as the city broke ground<br />
on the $30 million project last week.<br />
“Today is a wonderful day – the weather<br />
is perfect, and we’re ready to mark the<br />
beginning of a new chapter for the Welch<br />
Elementary School,” said Welch School<br />
Building Committee Chair Beverley<br />
Griffin Dunne. “The Welch School Project<br />
is designed to give a new life to the<br />
building behind us, but most importantly<br />
to allow this building to continue on in<br />
providing a safe, nurturing environment<br />
to the children of Peabody.”<br />
Dunne said that 60 percent of the cost<br />
will be reimbursed by the Massachusetts<br />
School Building Authority (MSBA). The<br />
project includes updated classrooms, a<br />
larger library, a new main entrance, a redesigned<br />
nurse’s office, enhanced<br />

City officials and elected leaders dig in at the Welch School<br />
ground breaking.<br />
security and new windows, air<br />
conditioning and ventilation, and<br />
HVAC systems. Construction is<br />
scheduled to start this summer<br />
with completion expected by the<br />
fall of 2024.<br />
The project’s architect is Boston-based<br />
DiNisco Design Inc.;<br />
the project manager is Dore +<br />
Whittier of Newburyport, and<br />
the construction manager is Milton-based<br />
Consigli Construction.<br />
“Thank you all for working so<br />
hard on this project, for working<br />
for so many years to make this<br />
possible,” Dunne said.<br />
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt,<br />
Jr. echoed Dunne’s words, saying<br />
the project has been something<br />
the city has worked on for a “very<br />
long time. This is something that<br />
brings a lot of happiness to all of<br />
us. To have this moment makes<br />
me think about all the people who<br />
gave so much and made magic<br />
happen here even during some difficult<br />
and challenging moments.”<br />
Among those in attendance<br />
were State Sen. Joan B. Lovely,<br />
State Reps. Tom Walsh and Sally<br />
Kerans, Superintendent of schools<br />
Dr. Josh Vadala, Welch Principal<br />
Michelle Massa, City Council<br />
President Ryan Melville, Ward 2<br />
Councilor Peter McGinn, School<br />
Committee member Jon Swanson<br />
and MSBA Executive Director<br />
Jack McCarthy. McCarthy said<br />
the MSBA is “proud to be a part<br />
of Peabody’s tomorrow.”<br />
Several Welch students shared<br />
their thoughts on what the project<br />
means to them.<br />
“I’m excited that in fifth grade<br />
we will be in a brand new room<br />
(and) we will be graduating from<br />
a new school,” said second grade<br />
student Priscyla. “Hopefully, the<br />
new building doesn’t make anyone<br />
confused. I think it’s going to<br />
be a fantastic new building.”<br />
Second grade student Mason,<br />
said he is excited to be getting a<br />
new cafeteria and new windows.<br />
“Maybe we will get new food<br />
too,” he said. “We are getting new<br />
windows so that we can see better.<br />
I can’t wait to see the seasons<br />
change in my new classroom. Our<br />
class would like to thank everyone<br />
for making a great new school.”<br />
Emily Sanon, a fourth grader,<br />
said she is excited about having<br />
air conditioning and safer playground<br />
conditions.<br />
“It could stop students from<br />
sweating and complaining about<br />
the heat (and) we will have a better<br />
and safer playground that will<br />
better fit everyone to play,” she<br />
said.<br />
Bettencourt said Dunne has<br />
been a “strong advocate” for not<br />
only the Welch School, but all city<br />
schools.<br />
Dunne, whose four children<br />
attended Welch, said the school<br />
opened its doors in 1973 and that<br />
“once you’re a member of the<br />
Welch School family, you’re part<br />
of a pretty special group.” She<br />
said that the school has a rich tradition<br />
with many graduates going<br />
on to enjoy successful careers in<br />
the trades, business, and education.<br />
“Welch School students have<br />
gone on to do great things and to<br />
give back to our community and<br />
especially to education. That’s a<br />
great tribute to the work that goes<br />
on the building behind us, and<br />
we’re very happy to be able to<br />
give this building and the Welch<br />
School family many more happy<br />
years ahead. This school touches<br />
the future, and will continue to do<br />
so for many more generations.”<br />
Bettencourt thanked Massa<br />
and the Welch School staff and<br />
students.<br />
“You’ve all made the difference<br />
and we are grateful to have<br />
you,” he said. “It’s going to be<br />
challenging these next couple of<br />
years as we work through this<br />
project. It’s going to be an uphill<br />
project at times and I know it’s<br />
going to put a lot on all of you, but<br />
it’s going to be an outstanding result<br />
when we are finished. I can’t<br />
wait for the day when we are all<br />
back here for the ribbon cutting,”<br />
said Bettencourt.<br />

The North Shore summer<br />
public safety kids camps, formerly<br />
known as the D.A.R.E.<br />
program, are back after a<br />
two-year hiatus due to the<br />
COVID-19 pandemic.<br />
The camps are free and<br />
will be conducted by the Essex<br />
County District Attorney's<br />
office at the Higgins Middle<br />
School in Peabody. Children<br />
entering the fifth grade in the<br />
fall are eligible.<br />

Former O’Shea Mansion<br />
redevelopment well underway<br />

Revolutionary War. The project<br />
is six months ahead of schedule,<br />
Greeley said, and will come in<br />
under the $6 million budget he<br />
first laid out.<br />
While Greeley is the visionary<br />
behind the overhaul of the<br />
building, which the city seized<br />
in 2015 after Gloucester-based<br />
Empire Design & Development<br />
bought the building with plans<br />
to raze it and replace it with<br />
apartments and shops, he gives<br />
all the credit for the work being<br />
done to revitalize the property<br />
to his crew.<br />
“These guys are bringing<br />
this property back to historical<br />
significance and prominence,”<br />
he said during a Wednesday<br />
afternoon tour of the construction<br />
site. “These guys are taking<br />
the vision I had in my head and<br />
these guys are making it a reality.”<br />
“Truthfully, I’m like an<br />
over-glorified secretary,” Greeley<br />
quipped.<br />
The building was first constructed<br />
in 1867, Greeley said,<br />
but has roots going back at least<br />
a century earlier, as 2 Washington<br />
St. is the former home of<br />
the Bell Inn & Tavern, where<br />
a group of North Shore farmers<br />
met about a week before<br />
the battle of Concord and Lexington<br />
in 1775. A tree planted<br />
outside the property marks the<br />
place where the farmers gathered,<br />
Greeley said.<br />
“It’s really the landmark that<br />
makes the property special because<br />
of its historical significance,”<br />
he said. Bringing back<br />
that historical significance is<br />
one of Greeley’s primary goals<br />
with the project. “There’s a significant<br />
amount of pride in being<br />
part of a project that brings<br />
back about a historical property<br />
to bring its relevance and its<br />
prominence and we’re proud to<br />
be a part of it.”<br />
“It’s important to Peabody,<br />
probably as important to the<br />
city as any [building] based on<br />
its historical challenges,” he<br />
said.<br />
Thus far, Greeley and his<br />
team have already spent $1<br />
million on restoration for the<br />
project, restoring and repairing<br />
numerous moldings, mantles,<br />
walls, exterior siding, and<br />
the buildings’ roof, which had<br />
holes in it that allowed for rain<br />
and snow to come in and filter<br />
through the building. The<br />
project is ahead of schedule, he<br />
said, and should be completed<br />
in a year.<br />
“The trajectory we’re on,<br />
we’re going to have a two year<br />
project done in one and a half,”<br />
Greeley said.<br />
Mayor Ted Bettencourt<br />
praised Greeley for creating a<br />
“destination” for people from<br />
across the region.<br />
“This project surpasses even<br />
our fondest wishes for what<br />
would become of the beautiful<br />
O’Shea Mansion,” he said.<br />
“It will complement the many<br />
other shops and restaurants in a<br />
revitalized downtown Peabody<br />
and will preserve the precious<br />
Revolutionary history for which<br />
the mansion is renowned.”<br />
Public safety camps (former<br />
D.A.R.E.) back this summer<br />
from 8:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., the<br />
first from July 25-29 and the<br />
second on Aug. 1-5.<br />
Police from the following<br />
communities are expected to<br />
participate: Lynnfield, Peabody,<br />
Danvers, Beverly, Ipswich,<br />
Lynn, Marblehead, Gloucester,<br />
Salem, Saugus, and Swampscott.<br />
Salem State University<br />
police will also participate.<br />
The program features workshops<br />
on several topics including<br />
gang resistance, the prevention<br />
of violence, environmental<br />
awareness and decision-making.<br />
The program's focus is on<br />
team building.<br />
Greeley is confident that<br />
rooms at the estate will fill up<br />
quickly once it officially opens<br />
its doors.<br />
“[These] rooms will be some<br />
of the nicest rooms in the North<br />
Shore,” he said. “Anyone with<br />
any knowledge of that comfort<br />
is going to want to come back.<br />
I’m not concerned with being<br />
able to fill these rooms.”<br />
All four floors of the mansion<br />
will be revitalized by<br />
Greeley and his team — with<br />
the basement level serving as a<br />
speakeasy with live music, the<br />
first floor featuring indoor and<br />
outdoor dining, and the second<br />
and third floors containing four<br />
rooms apiece — complete with<br />
a bridal suite on the third floor.<br />
Catering<br />
available<br />
SU•CHANG’S<br />
Fine Chinese Cuisine<br />
The carriage house at the back<br />
of the property will contain<br />
three luxury apartments.<br />
The property will feature<br />
modern touches — like the seethrough<br />
walkway in the entry<br />
— to complement the historic<br />
features.<br />
“The property has its own<br />
personality, we’re not doing<br />
away with its personality,”<br />
Greeley said. “We’re staying<br />
with a traditional restoration in<br />
conjunction with modern improvements.<br />
He described the envisioned<br />
finished product as “a little bit<br />
of modern meets a little bit of<br />
historical.”<br />
Greeley said the project<br />
could not have gone ahead<br />
without the help of Mayor Bettencourt<br />
and the city council.<br />
“If it weren’t for the mayor,<br />
I doubt this structure would still<br />
be here,” he said. “The mayor<br />
and his city council went<br />
through an awful lot to keep this<br />
building intact. I’m fortunate to<br />
be a part of that.”<br />
Greeley looks forward to<br />
welcoming in those who helped<br />
keep the O’Shea mansion upright,<br />
and push his proposal forward,<br />
back to the property once<br />
it’s finally opened.<br />
“Our goal is to open those<br />
doors and have everyone who<br />
fought come in,” he said.<br />
When he purchased 2 Washington<br />
St. from the city, Greeley<br />
also acquired 12 Washington St.<br />
and 16 Washington St. Greeley<br />
plans to tear down the former<br />
St. Paul’s Episcopal Church at<br />
12 Washington St., replacing it<br />
with ample parking for staff and<br />
guests of the bed-and-breakfast.<br />
“We’re part of something<br />
that’s larger than ourselves,” he<br />
said.<br />

Savvy Senior: Adaptive Clothing<br />
Takes the Stress Out of Dressing<br />
DEAR SAVVY SENIOR:<br />
What kinds of clothing options<br />
are available to mobility challenged<br />
seniors who have a difficult<br />
time dressing?<br />
LOOKING FOR MOM<br />
Dear Looking,<br />
The chore of dressing and undressing<br />
in traditional clothing<br />
can be difficult, time-consuming<br />
and even painful for millions of<br />
people with certain health and<br />
mobility problems. Fortunately,<br />
there’s a wide variety special<br />
clothing, known as “adaptive<br />
clothing,” that can help with<br />
most dressing challenges. Here’s<br />
what you should know.<br />
What is Adaptive Clothing?<br />
Adaptive clothing is specially<br />
designed garments for people<br />
with mobility issues, disabilities<br />
and cognitive challenges who<br />
have a difficult time getting<br />
dressed. This type of clothing incorporates<br />
discreet design features<br />
to make dressing and undressing<br />
easier, while still having<br />
the outward appearance of typical<br />
clothing.<br />
Depending on your mom’s<br />
needs, here are some of the many<br />
different types of adaptive clothing<br />
options that could help.<br />
For self-dressing seniors who<br />
suffer from Parkinson’s or other<br />
disabilities that affect dexterity,<br />
there are pants, shirts, dresses<br />
and outerwear made with Velcro<br />
or magnetic closures instead of<br />
buttons and zippers, which are<br />
much easier to fasten and unfasten.<br />
But be aware that magnetic<br />
closures are not suitable for those<br />
who have pacemakers.<br />
For those who are disabled or<br />
who have limited range of motion<br />
and need assistance dressing,<br />
there are adaptive pants with<br />
zippers or snaps on both sides of<br />
the pants that are easier to pull<br />
on. And a wide range of rear closure<br />
shirts, tops and dresses with<br />
Velcro or snap fasteners in the<br />
back for those who can’t raise<br />
their arms over their head.<br />
For wheelchair users there are<br />
higher back and elastic waistband<br />
pants that don’t slip down,<br />
as well as pants with fabric overlaps<br />
at the seat to allow for easier<br />
toileting access.<br />
For people with tactile sensitivity,<br />
there are garments you can<br />
purchase that have soft and<br />
stretchy fabrics without tags and<br />
are sewn with flat seams to help<br />
preventing chafing.<br />
And for seniors with Alzheimer’s<br />
disease there are one-piece<br />
jumpsuits that have a back-zipper<br />
access to prevent the wearer<br />
from disrobing inappropriately.<br />
Where to Shop?<br />
Because each person’s dressing<br />
needs and style is so specific,<br />
finding appropriate adaptive<br />
clothing can be difficult.<br />
Recently, mainstream clothing<br />
stores like JCPenney (jcpenney.<br />
com), Target (target.com) and<br />
Tommy Hilfiger (usa.tommy.<br />
com) have started offering a line<br />
of adaptive clothing for adults<br />
that combines fashion and functionality,<br />
but their instore options<br />
are limited. To get a bigger<br />
selection, visit the store’s website<br />
and type in “adaptive clothing” in<br />
their search engine.<br />
You can also find a large selection<br />
at online stores that specialize<br />
in adaptive clothing like Buck<br />
& Buck (buckandbuck.com) and<br />
Silverts (silverts.com). Both of<br />
these companies have been selling<br />
adaptive clothing for decades<br />
and offer a wide variety of garments<br />
to accommodate almost<br />
any need, condition or style, for<br />
independent self-dressers and<br />
for those who need help.<br />
Some other adaptive clothing<br />
sites you should visit include Joe<br />
& Bella (joeandbella.com), Ovidis<br />
(ovidis.com), and IZ Adaptive (izadaptive.com),<br />
which sells clothing<br />
primarily designed for wheelchair<br />
users.<br />
And, if your mom is in need of<br />
adaptive footwear, Velcro fastening<br />
shoes (instead of shoelaces)<br />
SPONSORED BY<br />
461 Boston Street, Unit B1 Topsfield<br />
silverliningsolutions.com<br />
have long been a popular option<br />
and can be found in most local<br />
shoe stores.<br />
Some other new lines of adaptive<br />
shoes that may interest her<br />
include Kiziks (kizik.com) and<br />
Zeba (zebashoes.com), which<br />
make fashionable sneakers and<br />
comfortable walking shoes that<br />
just slip on, hands-free, along<br />
with Billy Footwear (billyfootwear.com)<br />
and Friendly Shoes<br />
(friendlyshoes.com), which<br />
makes uniquely designed zip-on<br />
shoes.<br />

“Our fourth graders here today<br />
represent some incredible<br />
work that's taking place at our<br />
[schools] and I'm very proud<br />
of the hard work that went<br />
into this,” said Mayor Edward<br />
A. Bettencourt, Jr. before the<br />
awards were handed out.<br />
Students from the winning<br />
teams from all eight elementary<br />
schools received plaques and<br />
citations from Mayor Bettencourt,<br />
state Sen. Joan B. Lovely,<br />
and state Reps. Thomas P.<br />
Walsh and Sally P. Kerans. Students<br />
also received a congratulatory<br />
letter from U.S. Rep.<br />
Seth Moulton. The winners received<br />
a Barnes & Noble gift<br />
card courtesy of PMLP.<br />
“You could see their enthusiasm<br />
exude from them,” said<br />
John Maihos, PMLP human<br />
resources and community relations<br />
director. “If we can encourage<br />
a student to think about<br />
science — that’s a plus.”<br />
Maihos said the science fair,<br />
supported by PMLP, would not<br />
have been possible without the<br />
help of the Peabody elementary<br />
school teachers and administrators,<br />
who were also praised at<br />
the ceremony.<br />
After the awards, pastries<br />
made by the high school culinary<br />
department were available<br />
for those in attendance.<br />

Peabody and South Lynnfield<br />

Our Ask the Expert question<br />
of the day is answered by<br />
Why should you<br />
have a primary<br />
care physician?<br />
Answered by Dr. Bernard Bettencourt<br />
The right doctor can have a positive impact on<br />
your health and well-being. Choosing one in your<br />
health plan can save you money as well.<br />
What is a primary care physician?<br />
A primary care physician (PCP) serves as your<br />
main doctor and is your first stop when you need<br />
care. When you see the same doctor over time,<br />
they can:<br />
• See the full picture of your health. They know your health<br />
history and can connect the dots quickly if you have a health<br />
issue.<br />
• Save you time and money. A PCP helps you stay healthy with<br />
preventative care and can help manage chronic conditions and<br />
medications.<br />
• Coordinate your care and treatments. PCPs help ensure tests<br />
aren’t needlessly repeated, your medicines work well together,<br />
and your other doctors agree on your health needs.<br />
• Help you avoid costly ER visits. Call your PCP first when you<br />
have an illness, minor injury, or flare-up of a chronic condition.<br />
They can advise you where to go for care. However, if you<br />
believe you are having a life-threatening emergency, or your<br />
health is in serious jeopardy, call 911 immediately.<br />
• Assist you after hours. Many PCPs now have evening and<br />
weekend hours. Some may also offer telehealth virtual visits.<br />
What are the different types of primary care<br />
physicians?<br />
There are three types of primary care physicians.<br />
Family practitioners and general practice doctors<br />
treat people of all ages. This type of doctor might<br />
be a good choice if you want to keep your family’s<br />
care “under one roof.” Internal medicine doctors,<br />
also called internists, treat adults and may have<br />
special knowledge about certain health problems.<br />
If you have a long-term health condition, an<br />
internist who specializes in your issue may be a<br />
good fit. Finally, pediatricians specialize in caring<br />
for children, from birth to early adulthood.<br />
What should I consider when choosing a primary<br />
care physician?<br />
Every doctor is different. Take time to find a doctor<br />
who makes you feel comfortable, listens to your<br />
needs, and explains things clearly. It’s also<br />
important to find out if the doctor:<br />
• Is part of your health plan’s network. You’ll pay less out of<br />
pocket for your visits, preventative care screenings, vaccinations,<br />
and annual physicals. If your doctor is not in your plan’s<br />
network, you may not be covered at all.<br />
• Has the training and background to treat your health<br />
problems.<br />
• Has an office in a convenient location, close to your home or<br />
work.<br />
• Holds office hours that work with your schedule.<br />
• Offers telehealth options, such as text, email, phone, or video<br />
visits.<br />
You can visit different doctors in your plan’s<br />
network to find the one who is right for you. If<br />
you’re not happy with your first choice, it’s okay.<br />
You may be able to change your primary care<br />
doctor depending on your plan.<br />
Having a primary care physician as part of you<br />
and your family’s healthcare team is important to<br />
coordinating your care and keeping your healthcare<br />
costs affordable.<br />

Culture Club unveils racial justice mural<br />
By AnThony CAMMAlleri<br />
Cherry Blossoms paved the<br />
stairs leading up to Peabody Veterans<br />
Memorial High School’s<br />
upper lobby last Wednesday night<br />
when their culture club unveiled<br />
its new mural for racial justice,<br />
“Hope Springs from Groundbreaking<br />
Roots.”<br />
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt,<br />
Jr. and School Committee Member<br />
Beverley Ann Griffin Dunne<br />
were among those seated in the<br />
approximately 18-person crowd<br />
as club Co-Presidents Jada Martinez<br />
and Carissa Furtado pulled<br />
back the decorative sheet obscuring<br />
the mural.<br />
The mural, which students<br />
spent more than two years painting,<br />
depicts a cherry tree with<br />
paper flower blossoms attached<br />
to the branches and paper butterflies<br />
taped around the trunk. The<br />
tree’s roots, meant to symbolize<br />
the roots of the fight for racial justice,<br />
are marked by the names of<br />
Emmett Till, Rosa Parks, Malcom<br />
X, and others.<br />
Among the butterflies are the<br />
names of those who lost their lives<br />
due to injustice, and on the flowers<br />
are the names of those who inspire<br />
hope for future equality.<br />
Following the unveiling, the<br />
culture club surprised Martinez<br />
with her own cherry blossom<br />
flower to tape to the mural.<br />
“Personally, I feel like the biggest<br />
accomplishment for me was<br />
receiving my flower, but also,<br />
people’s reactions,” Martinez said.<br />
“Having such a supportive community<br />
of people who are learning<br />
and trying to understand what it’s<br />
like being a part of a community.<br />
Especially with Black Lives, and<br />
what our culture and community<br />

Secretary Tolulope Adeniyi stand next to the newly unveiled<br />
mural that was painted by the club after months of remote<br />
planning.<br />
means to us, I think the reaction<br />
that we got here today was so<br />
heartwarming and fulfilling.”<br />
Furtado said that she was<br />
stressed with the idea of finishing<br />
the mural, and excited to see<br />
the two year project successfully<br />
completed.<br />
“Making the mural, I was like<br />
‘oh my God, we’re never going<br />
to finish it,’ because it was such a<br />
daunting task, but having finished<br />
it, and being here, makes me really<br />
happy and really excited for students<br />
to see it,” Furtado said.<br />
Club Co-Advisor Mary Henry<br />
said that she was proud of the students,<br />
and that their passion for racial<br />
equality sends a strong, hopeful<br />
message to the community.<br />
“I feel like it couldn’t have<br />
gone better if we tried. I think that<br />
the community sees what these<br />
kids stand for and it’s powerful,<br />
and it’s beautiful, and it’s hopeful,<br />
and it’s strong,” Henry said.<br />
“The fact that they were able to<br />
come up with this concept out of<br />
nothing, and it was student-driven,<br />
it’s just incredible and it’s<br />
something we’ll remember for<br />
the rest of our lives.”<br />

Chris Vasquez, general manager at La Siesta Restaurante in Peabody discusses ways to utilize<br />
students from the culinary programs at Peabody Veterans Memorial High School and Essex<br />
North Shore Agricultural & Technical School at his restaurant on Tuesday.<br />
City dishes out help to local<br />
restaurants, culinary students<br />
By Anne MArie ToBin<br />
The city, in partnership with<br />
the Peabody Area Chamber of<br />
Commerce (PACC) is stepping<br />
up its efforts to help restaurants<br />
that continue to struggle in the<br />
face of a stubborn pandemic and<br />
tight labor market.<br />
The partnership's mission<br />
is to connect local restaurant<br />
owners with the culinary program<br />
directors from Peabody<br />
Veterans Memorial High School<br />
(PVMHS) and the Essex North<br />
Shore Agricultural & Technical<br />
School.<br />
A kick-off networking event<br />
took place Tuesday in Wiggin<br />
Auditorium at Peabody City<br />
Hall. PACC Executive Director<br />
Beth Amico said the program is<br />
expected to provide mutual benefits<br />
to all participants.<br />
“This initial forum is designed<br />
simply to establish relationships<br />
between our member<br />
businesses and culinary staff at<br />
Peabody High and Essex Tech,”<br />
said Amico. “Ultimately, we<br />
hope to create an employment<br />
pipeline between the schools and<br />
the restaurants which will benefit<br />
students and business owners<br />
alike.”<br />
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt,<br />
Jr. said that when Amico<br />
reached out to his office, he<br />
enthusiastically embraced the<br />
concept. He not only invited<br />
the high school's culinary staff<br />
members to attend the forum,<br />
but also offered to host the event<br />
at City Hall.<br />
“Many of our restaurants in<br />
Peabody are small, family-run<br />
businesses which have really<br />
struggled in recent years,” Bettencourt<br />
said. “Now they face<br />
staffing challenges heading into<br />
the summer. I think it’s important<br />
that we continue to support<br />
them during these difficult times<br />
while also helping to provide our<br />
students with real-world industry<br />
experience.”<br />
Champions Pub owner Phil<br />
Mitchell said he is a huge fan of<br />
the program. He said he has used<br />
culinary students from North<br />
Shore Community College in the<br />
past, but all of them were unsuccessful<br />
due to space constraints<br />
of the Champions kitchen and its<br />
high-pressure environment.<br />
"This is a great program,<br />
a tremendous opportunity for<br />
many restaurants that typically<br />
have larger kitchens and line<br />
cooking, but we simply don't<br />
have the space," he said.<br />
"We have one guy manning<br />
all stations, and really no place<br />
for anyone else, so for us, we are<br />
just not a good match. Having<br />
said that, I am certain there are<br />
many places who will be great<br />
matches for these students. For<br />
them, it's a win-win for everyone<br />
and while it doesn't work for<br />
us, I encourage other restaurants<br />
to get involved as it can have<br />
huge benefits and it's a chance<br />
to support your fellow business<br />
owners and give kids jobs at the<br />
same time."<br />
Peabody Children’s<br />
Museum has a new<br />
executive director<br />
By Anne MArie ToBin<br />
Ali Haydock has been named<br />
executive director of the new Peabody<br />
Curious City Children's Museum.<br />
"I am thrilled by the opportunity<br />
to lead the Children's Museum<br />
during this exciting time of formation<br />
and growth,” said Haydock,<br />
the current director of development<br />
at Citizens Inn. "I love serving the<br />
Peabody community and look forward<br />
to working collaboratively<br />
to create something wonderful for<br />
local families and children."<br />
The Children's Museum has<br />
been in the works for nearly eight<br />
years. The museum took a major<br />
step forward in February when<br />
the Finance Committee approved<br />
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt,<br />
Jr.'s proposal for financing for the<br />
museum, which is to be located at<br />
the former TD Bank building at 10<br />
Main St. The committee approved<br />
the creation of two full-time positions,<br />
including executive director,<br />
and also authorized the city to<br />
enter into a five-year lease of the<br />
property. Bettencourt has estimated<br />
the museum will have a budget<br />
of approximately $550,000 per<br />
year.<br />
Bettencourt said the museum<br />
has been a priority for him since<br />
2014. He feels that Haydock's diverse<br />
background makes her the<br />
perfect candidate to launch the<br />
new initiative.<br />
"We interviewed a number of<br />
very well-qualified applicants for<br />
executive director, and we feel that<br />
Ali will really thrive in the role,"<br />
said Bettencourt. "In addition to<br />
her extensive fundraising background,<br />
Ali excels at volunteer and<br />
event management, marketing,<br />
and grant writing. She has a proven<br />
track record which is ideally<br />
suited to launch and lead this exciting<br />
new venture."<br />
During her tenure at Citizens,<br />
Ali led a development team<br />
which more than doubled the<br />
organization's fundraising totals<br />
in less than five years. She also<br />
managed a grant program which<br />
secured $475,000 from the Commonwealth<br />
of Massachusetts and<br />
$100,000 from the Cummings<br />
Foundation.<br />
Working with the state departments<br />
of Public Health and<br />
Housing and Community Development,<br />
Haydock helped to secure<br />
an additional $200,000 per year for<br />
Citizens' shelter programs.<br />
Haydock received her undergraduate<br />
degree from the College<br />
of the Holy Cross in Worcester<br />
and an MBA in non-profit management<br />
from Boston University's<br />
Questrom School of Business. She<br />
began her career teaching children<br />
with autism at the New England<br />
Center for Children in Southborough.<br />
In that role, she served as<br />
a liaison for parents and as case<br />
manager for students in the residential<br />
program.<br />
In 2012, Haydock embarked<br />
on a career in fundraising as a<br />
development assistant at Harvard<br />
University. She was subsequently<br />
named associate director of<br />
development at Massachusetts<br />
General Hospital where she coordinated<br />
the annual MGH Golf<br />
Classic and helped raise $300,000<br />
from over 30 event sponsors.<br />
While at Mass General, Haydock<br />
implemented a volunteer<br />
management process to manage<br />
two high level volunteer councils,<br />
the President's Council and the<br />
MGH Fund Leadership Council.

Tanners slug into state semifinals<br />
GIRLS SOFTBALL<br />
By Mike Alongi<br />
The Peabody softball team<br />
may have taken a little longer<br />
than usual to get the bats going,<br />
but in the end the No. 9 Tanners<br />
started clicking and ran away<br />
with an 11-1 win over No. 16<br />
Newton North in a Division<br />
1 tournament Round of 8<br />
game Friday evening at Kiley<br />
Brothers Field.<br />
Avery Grieco led the offensive<br />
attack for the Tanners,<br />
going 2-for-3 with a home run<br />
and three RBI. Kiley Doolin<br />
went 1-for-2 with two RBI,<br />
while Logan Lomasney (2-<br />
for-4), Emma Bloom (2-for-<br />
4), Abby Bettencourt (1-for-4)<br />
and Gina Terrazzano (1-for-3,<br />
double) each notched one RBI.<br />
Jess Steed (2-for-3, triple) and<br />
Isabel Bettencourt (1-for-4)<br />
also added hits in the win for<br />
Peabody. The only player in<br />
the lineup who didn’t notch<br />
a hit — Penny Spack — still<br />
reached base three times and<br />
scored a run.<br />
“The way we hit towards the<br />
end of the game is how I know<br />
we can hit, so I’m glad we finally<br />
were able to get the bats<br />
going as the game went on,”<br />
said Peabody coach Tawny<br />
Palmieri. “Every girl in the<br />
lineup contributed to the win<br />
(Friday), and that’s a huge confidence<br />
booster for us.”<br />
Abby Bettencourt also<br />
picked the win in the circle for<br />
Peabody, tossing a complete<br />
game and allowing one run on<br />
just two hits with three walks<br />
and four strikeouts. She took a<br />
no-hitter into the sixth inning.<br />
“She’s just so steady for<br />
us out there, we always have<br />
confidence in her when she’s<br />
pitching,” Palmieri said of<br />
Abby Bettencourt. “She was<br />
mixing up her pitches and really<br />
keeping them off balance.”<br />
After Abby Bettencourt<br />
worked through a 1-2-3 top<br />
of the first inning, the Tanners<br />
came out in the bottom of the<br />
first and got right to work.<br />
It all started with Bloom’s<br />
one-out single, then Spack<br />
drew a walk and Grieco was hit<br />
by a pitch to load up the bases.<br />
That opened up the door for<br />
Doolin, who hit a hard ground<br />
ball to shortstop. The Newton<br />
North defender attempted to<br />
make the play at third base,<br />
but the throw got away and allowed<br />
two Tanners runners to<br />
come home and make it a 2-0<br />
game.<br />
Newton North put together<br />
a threat of its own in the top<br />
of the second, putting two<br />
runners on with one out. But<br />
Abby Bettencourt worked her<br />
way out of the jam, forcing two<br />
straight groundouts to get out<br />
of the inning unscathed.<br />
Peabody’s Isabel Bettencourt makes contact with the ball.<br />
The score remained there<br />
until the bottom of the fourth,<br />
when Peabody was able to<br />
push two more runs across.<br />
Doolin drew a walk to open up<br />
the inning, and after a ground<br />
out from Logan Lomasney<br />
moved her over the second,<br />
Terrazzano stepped into the<br />
box and ripped an RBI double<br />
off the right center field wall<br />
to make it 3-0. Steed followed<br />
that with a single that nearly<br />
drove in another run, but<br />
Terrazzano got caught in a rundown<br />
between third and home.<br />
But it didn’t end up mattering<br />
too much, as Abby Bettencourt<br />
stepped into the box next and<br />
knocked Steed home with an<br />
RBI single.<br />
From there the Tanners<br />
turned on the faucet.<br />
Grieco smashed a two-run<br />
homer in the bottom of the fifth<br />
to push the lead to six nothing,<br />
and after Newton North finally<br />
pushed across a run in the top<br />
of the sixth, the Tanners exploded<br />
for five runs in the<br />
bottom of the inning.<br />
A two-run single from<br />
Doolin and RBI knocks from<br />
Bloom, Grieco and Lomasney<br />
rounded out the scoring<br />
for Peabody before Abby<br />
Bettencourt moved 1-2-3<br />
through the Tigers order in the<br />
top of the seventh to seal the<br />
victory.<br />
Following the win Palmieri<br />

gave the team a day off, before<br />
returning to the field to<br />
prepare for its semifinal game<br />
against No. 4 Wachusett Reg.<br />
regional on Tuesday.<br />
“We’re (going to be) ready<br />
for the challenge,” said<br />
Palmieri. “The biggest thing<br />
for us is to not take anyone<br />
lightly, and we’re going to<br />
approach this game the same<br />
way we’ve approached every<br />
game this season.”

Moynihan Lumber marks 30 years<br />
of celebrating student achievement<br />
Moynihan Lumber observed<br />
its 30th year of honoring its<br />
North Shore Student Athletes<br />
of the Year program by<br />
bringing back one of the first<br />
winners of the scholarship.<br />
Peabody Mayor Ted<br />
Bettencourt was given the Post-<br />
Graduate Award and served as<br />
the featured speaker at the luncheon<br />
at Salem Country Club<br />
Tuesday.<br />
Arianna Bezanson of<br />
Danvers High and Tyler Knox<br />
of St. John’s Prep were the<br />
two winners of this year’s<br />
scholarships.<br />
Bettencourt, from Peabody<br />
High, was the 1991-1992<br />
winner along with Lauren<br />
Maney of Lynnfield High. Both<br />
ended up going to Holy Cross,<br />
and they remain good friends,<br />
Bettencourt said. The girls’<br />
winner that year was Lauren<br />
Maney of Lynnfield, who was<br />
unable to attend the luncheon.<br />
“I remember the pride<br />
I felt winning the award,”<br />
Bettencourt said. “I also remembered<br />
my parents, sisters<br />
and brothers. It’s a family<br />
thing. The love and support<br />
from my family matters.<br />
“This award meant a tremendous<br />
amount to my mother,”<br />
he said, “that it was for student<br />
achievement too.”<br />
Bettencourt congratulated<br />
Moynihan Lumber for<br />
“keeping a 30-year tradition<br />
alive. There is something special<br />
about this award.<br />
“I have always been a lover<br />
of local sports,” he said. “I<br />
keep track of all the scores, and<br />
get to as many games as I can.”<br />
“This award means something,”<br />
Bettencourt said.<br />
“It means something to me,<br />
my family, and to the North<br />
Shore.”<br />
Moynihan also presented<br />
Bob DeFelice with a lifetime<br />
achievement award. DeFelice,<br />
of Winthrop, retired after a<br />
54-year career as a coach,<br />
including 30 as the baseball<br />
coach/athletic director at<br />
Bentley University. He is in<br />
nine halls of fame.<br />
“This has been a great life<br />
for me, being involved in<br />
athletics,” DeFelice said. He<br />
joked that he was sitting at a<br />
table of Marblehead people<br />
“who didn’t enjoy their lunch<br />
very much,” and also said he<br />
had to sit next to his big brother<br />
Frank, another coaching legend<br />
on the North Shore.<br />
Others honored included basketball<br />
referee June Murphy and<br />
Independent Newspaper Group<br />
reporter/editor Cary Shuman,<br />
both receiving the Lifetime<br />
Commitment/Community<br />
Award; Marblehead assistant<br />
athletic director Mark Tarmey<br />
and Manchester-Essex coach<br />
Margaret “Muffin” Driscoll,<br />
Lifetime Commitment/Schools<br />
Award; and Lynn Cable TV<br />
broadcaster John Hoffman, Fan<br />
Award.<br />
A special presentation was<br />
given posthumously to longtime<br />
Peabody High athletic<br />
secretary Kathy Strange,<br />
who died last winter. Strange<br />
was also given the Lifetime<br />
Commitment/Schools Award.<br />
Former AD Phil Sheridan<br />
accepted the award in her<br />
memory.<br />
Bezanson, a girls soccer<br />
player, won the first of the<br />
monthly awards of the school<br />
year, last September. Coach<br />
Jim Hinchion, who introduced<br />
her, said he has known<br />
her since she was six years old<br />
and could tell that she was a<br />
good athlete, and that she was<br />
extremely competitive -- two<br />
traits that only grew as she got<br />
older.<br />
The Falcons won the<br />
Northeastern Conference all<br />
four years she played for them.<br />
But beyond accolades, what<br />
impressed Hinchion was her<br />
leadership abilities.<br />
“She is a leader in every<br />
sense of the word,” he said.<br />
During her senior year,<br />
Bezanson scored 22 goals and<br />
finished with 34 points.<br />
“She carried us on her back<br />
to the state quarterfinal,” he<br />
said.<br />
Among her highlights this<br />

of Moynihan Lumber at the North Shore Student-Athletes of the Year at Salem Country Club<br />
on Tuesday.<br />
year, she was the team MVP, an<br />
all-star in the NEC and Eastern<br />
Mass, was on the All-American<br />
Team, and is the Gatorade<br />
Player of the Year nominee<br />
from Massachusetts. She will<br />
be attending Colgate in the fall<br />
and majoring in biology. She<br />
hopes to become a surgeon.<br />
Knox, or “Knoxie,” as coach<br />
Manny Costa called him, was a<br />
special wrestler. He’s the third<br />
St. John’s wrestler to win the<br />
yearly Moynihan award — the<br />
other two being Ryan Malo and<br />
Costa’s own son, Hunter.<br />
This year, en route to a perfect<br />
season that took him to the<br />
national championship, Knox<br />
— a junior who has already<br />
committed to Stanford —<br />
didn’t even allow a point until<br />
the New England quarterfinals.<br />
He is currently ranked seventh<br />
in the nation in his 120-pound<br />
weight category.<br />
Equally impressive, said<br />
Costa, was Knox’s 4.39 GPA.<br />
“Already, he’s had three Ivy<br />
League schools looking at him,<br />
but he got a call from Stanford<br />
and went out there,” said Costa.<br />
“And he called me and said the<br />
place seemed right for him. So,<br />
after he’s done here, he’ll be<br />
going out to Stanford.”<br />
Knox, Costa said, “respects<br />
the sport of wrestling as much<br />
as possible. The objective in<br />
wrestling is to pin your opponent.<br />
I’ve seen him begin<br />
matches with a handshake, pin<br />
his opponent, and then get up<br />
and shake his hand again.”<br />
The awards ceremony has<br />
been held every year since<br />
1992 except for 2020, when<br />
it was canceled due to the<br />
COVID-19 pandemic.<br />
