Medway Will Show Its Pride
Saturday, May 16
By J.D. O’Gara
Medway Pride Day is upon
us! Saturday, May 16th, Medway
residents can come out, greet
each other and enjoy games,
food, activities and the offerings
of local organizations and businesses at the Medway Middle
School on Holliston Street.
There will also be a variety of
crafters with tables, offering
unique items for sale.
The day will begin with
some great activities, after the
Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts
lead the Pledge of Allegiance at
10 a.m. As is tradition, at 10:30
a.m. will be the children’s bike
parade right on the Medway
Middle School track. This event
is for children in pre-school
through fourth grade.
This year, Roy Cervantes, owner of Grace
Bicycles (1574A
Washington St., Holliston), which is sponsoring the bike parade,
will be on hand a bit before the
Medway Pride Day, and its signature Bike Parade for pre-schoolers
through 4th graders, will take place this year on Saturday, May 16 on
the grounds of the Medway Middle School.
parade, from 8:30-9:30 a.m., to
do a bicycle safety check for the
kids. Young bicyclists interested
in participating should
contact Nicole at [email protected].
Include child’s Name,
Age, Grade, and Shirt
Size, because there are
t-shirts for the first 50
kids to sign up!
Those who come early will
also be uplifted, quite literally, by
a treat from Remax. The Remax
hot air balloon will be at the event
from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. Although
there will be a charge (undecided
at the time of this writing), all
proceeds will benefit charity.

Spectra Natural Gas Pipeline Still a Proposal
Atlantic Bridge Project Would Affect Medway, Norfolk,
Franklin, Bellingham and Walpole
By J.D. O’Gara
The word on the proposed natural gas pipeline dubbed the Atlantic Bridge Project, a proposed
expansion of the Algonquin Gas
Transmission (Algonquin) and
Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline
(Maritimes) systems by Spectra
Energy, is that the project has been
downsized, but residents who live
along Spectra’s current right of
way, who have natural gas pipelines abutting their property, may
want to take the initiative to follow the progress of this proposal,
right now in the preliminary filing
stages with FERC (Federal Environmental Regulatory Commission), filed under FERC docket
PF15-12.
The project proposal initially
called for a new 30” natural gas
pipeline to run alongside an existing, several decades old, smaller
natural gas pipeline, running
through property in the towns
of Millis, Medway, Bellingham,
Franklin, Norfolk and Walpole.
Since the downsizing, however,
Millis currently has been dropped
from the proposal and the initial
proposed impact on the other
towns reduced.
As of late March, Spectra
has reduced the Atlantic Bridge
Project capacity from 222,000
dekatherms per day (“Dth/d”) to
approximately 153,000 Dth/d.
The Q-1 System Loop, which
includes local towns, has been reduced from 10.2 miles of pipeline
to 3.1 miles of pipeline in recent
filings.
Allison Potter, Assistant to
the Town Administrator, Medway, confirms that a portion of
the proposed pipeline in Medway
has been dropped by .68 miles,
although .35 miles are still proposed along the Bellingham line
in her town. “It’s permitted at the
state level, so the town is generally
not involved,” she says. “They will
apprise us from time to time what
they’re doing or if there are any
changes.”
Marylee Hanley, director of
Stakeholder Outreach, Spectra
Energy, insists that the Atlantic Bridge Project is “in the very
preliminary stages. We’ve just
made our pre-filing with FERC,
and we are evaluating potential
routes. Because of the volumens
of gas the customers have signed
on for, there are no facilities required in Millis, although the proposal includes Medway, Franklin,
Bellingham and Norfolk” with a
“small amount” in Walpole. She
assures, “Once we have made
our certificate filing, there will be
more specific maps,” and more
“open houses” in the community
will take place.
Hanley insists readers know
that Spectra Energy has operated
the Algonquin Gas Transmission
in the region for over 60 years
“providing clean, reliable, safe,
domestic natural gas to the region.” That gas, she says, comes
from four possible areas, the Gulf
of Mexico, offshore Nova Scotia,
the Rocky Mountains or the Marshales Shale. Hanley maintains
that the gas Spectra transports
“must meet or exceed all gas quality specifications.”
Hanley believes if Spectra receives approval from FERC, that
the public will support the project
“because it is going to use existing
rights of way, therefore has much
less impact to the environment and
minimizing impact to landowners,
the environment and the community.”
Hanley says Spectra has held
“numerous landowner information meetings in the month of
March.”
Some local residents, however, are concerned that not all
landowners have been informed,
and that resident turnout for these
meetings has been minimal.
James Hill, a Franklin resident
since 1977, went to the March 16
meeting in Franklin. Hill became
concerned at the meeting, as he
said it wasn’t well attended by
Franklin residents, with Spectra
and FERC representatives far outnumbering town residents.
“The company has to get a
sign off from property owners and
abutters of the pipeline,” says Hill.
“Interestingly, they won’t release
to anybody who the abutters and
property owners are. That makes
me uncomfortable. I get the feeling that they really want to get this
through without a lot of controversy.”
Rep. Jeff Roy, whose district
is Franklin and Medway, attended
that meeting, his second.
“I’ve been trying to get an
understanding of what exactly
they’re planning to do,” says Roy,
“and the most important thing
at this stage was in identifying
who the landowners were who
ALL YOU CAN EAT
were going to be affected by this
pipeline. A lot of the conversation I had was focused on has everyone along the line in Franklin
and Medway been made aware
of this? I received assurances that
they have, but I did watch a Fox
News report and heard that the
first time one abutter heard about
it was when news reporters were
at the door.”
When he offered to himself
notify his constituents who were
abutters, Spectra refused, saying it
was a matter of privacy.
Roy, who does not argue that
there is a need for energy sources
in New England, says,” I could sit
down at the Registry of Deeds and
look at town records, and it would
take me a matter of time to identify the abutters, but I’d have to
go to each parcel along multiple
towns. It’s next to impossible. I’ll
feel more comfortable if everybody has notice and this process
unfolds in a fair and public way,
and that everybody who wants to
be heard has an opportunity to be
heard.”
Hill thinks that not only abutters, but “everyone in the town
should be aware of this. I get robocalls all the time; I wouldn’t mind
getting a robo-call about this. It
would affect the whole town if
there’s an accident or explosion.”

athletic teams - to help us with
this,” says Medway Pride Day
Committee member Susan Alessandri, who had looked at old
Medway Pride Day programs
and had seen that Remax and its
balloon had been in attendance at
past events. “I happened to go up
in a hot air balloon last summer,
and I thought it was pretty cool,”
she says. “If the weather is right,
they can definitely come out to the
event. They don’t ask anything,
just ask that you charge for the
ride and give it to charity. Fingers
are crossed for great weather!”
Alessandri notes that the
Roaming Railroad, out of Connecticut, will once again travel
through Medway Pride grounds,
and Lil’ Folk Farm, from Hollis-
ton, will offer pony rides. Kids can
also play in foam provided by the
Medway Fire Department.
Musical entertainment, will
take place all day long, until 5
p.m., and the event will feature
face painting, hair braiding and
an obstacle course, as well as lots
of opportunities to shop local and
learn about local nonprofits.

or Medway Town Hall. This year,
Medway resident Alex Kevork
won the logo contest. The buttons
and t-shirts, as well as a car magnet that says “Mdwy” will also be
on sale at the event, and every 30
minutes, emcees will announce
another button raffle winner.
Pride Day also gives residents
an opportunity to buy local, as
businesses showcase products and
generate sales, while they show
their pride in the local community.
As for organizing, Alessandri
says that just five volunteers make
the event happen each year. All on
the committee are relatively new,
with the veteran of the group having participated for just four years.
Still, these five organizers couldn’t
do it without the volunteers to man
booths and activities the day of the
event.
“We depend on a lot of youth
groups and students,” says Alessandri, “and there are a lot of town
employees who help us out. They
are wonderful.”
If you are involved with a
local youth group and looking
for creative ways to raise money,
volunteer your members to staff
the children’s carnival games and
activities at Medway Pride Day.
Funds raised at Medway Pride
Day Committee are donated to
non-profit groups, such as the Boy

Hill has gotten a number of
residents together to discuss concerns. Among the concerns:
• The age of the pipes currently
in the ground – In fact, Scientific American (January 23,
2015) cites
• a study published by the National Academy of Sciences
suggests that Boston-area
natural pipelines are leaking
more methane than previously
thought and contributing to
global warming
• Suspicions, due to such coverage as in Boston Globe
(3/23/15), WBUR (3/11/15,
and Huffington Post, that LNG
supplies in Everett meet demand most of the time in this
Local Town Pages www.millismedwaynews.com Page 5
area, and that ultimately the ultimate goal of these pipelines
is not to supply LNG to this
area but to get it to Canada,
where it can be exported
• Additional leeway required on
each side of existing pipeline
to accommodate the new, infringing upon abutters’ use of
their property
• Concern over the encouragement of a decades-long commitment to an energy source
that, when obtained through
fracking, does harm to the
environment versus seeking
alternative sources of energy
safety concerns over possibility of explosions, pollution
hazards
Spectra Energy’s proposed
Atlantic Bridge Project still requires FERC approval. Accord-
ing to the FERC document “An
Interstate Natural Gas Facility on
my Land?”, the pipeline company
(in this case, Spectra Energy) will
need homeowner permission to go
onto private land, unless a certificate is issued by FERC. In the case
of Massachusetts, where landowners own mineral rights, the company can ultimately go to court to
obtain any rights to the property
through eminent domain, at which
time a court decides compensation
for the homeowner.
To keep apprised of this
project’s status, visit FERC.gov
and enter the docket no. PF15-12.
You may also go to the Spectra
Energy website at spectraenergy.

Bridge Project.”

Glen Ellen Country Club - Public Course, Private Quality
Anyone can play here. That’s
what Eileen Aviza, General Manager of the Glen Ellen Country
Club, wants the community to
know about the beautiful 250acre expanse of landscape, that
comprises this 18-hole course on
Orchard Street in Millis. Glen
Ellen, which is managed by Niblick Golf, Inc. has grown to be
regarded as offering the best golf
around. Pristine greens, knowledgeable professionals, attentive
staff, top notch food and an array
of amenities, and best of all, “The
Glen,” as it’s come to be known,
is open to the public and right in
your own backyard.
“As a member at The Glen for
over 30 years, I can easily say that
in the last three years, the play-
ing conditions of the
golf course, the level
of services provided
by the staff and the
overall experience of
being at The Glen, are
better than they have
ever been,” says Steven Potter, owner of
Steven Potter Design.
Chris Smith, Director of Fidelity
Institutional Risk
Oversight, has been
a member for 15
years. “I have seen
the course conditions
improve every year,”
says Smith. “Today, I consider
the conditions to be the best of
any public course in the Metrow-

est, and better than many private
clubs. The staff works tirelessly to
keep these conditions up year over
year. This is not the same place it
was 15 years ago. If you haven’t
been here in a while, you will be
surprised.”
Aviza credits Glen Ellen Country Club’s golf superintendent Jeff
James and his grounds crew for
that difference. “It’s his hard work
that actually changed the view of
this golf course,” she says. The
condition of our golf course is
what really drives people here and
keeps them coming back.
“One of the reasons I came
here is the conditions of the golf

Ellen’s Head PGA
Professional Rik
Lynch. The greens
are in great conditions, they’re
always fast. The
fairways are always
in impeccable condition.
What’s
more, the pro shop
is stocked with top
quality merchandise and offers club
repair.” The property also boasts an
all-natural practice
range and shortgame area and offers junior golf
camps and lessons for those folks
who want to improve their game.
That’s great news for the golfers, who can call or go online to
book tee times or purchase annual
single, couple and family memberships. The Glen Ellen Country
Club also offers pool memberships, and this year, a new Associate Pool & Golf membership
that allows other members of the
family to enjoy the pool, 6 tennis courts, mini-golf, 3 volleyball
courts, basketball, bocce, soccer, a
playground and horseshoes while
one member traverses the course.
“It’s very unusual for a public
facility to have this many private
amenities at their venue,” says
Lynch.

“It’s a very family-oriented
environment here,” adds Aviza,
noting that memberships have no
initiation fee or monthly minimums.
The Glen boasts a full function
facility, and the breathtaking location is the perfect background for
a wedding, shower, Bar Mitvah,
birthday party, charity event or
corporate outing.
“Our terrace room accommodates up to 120 people and has a
deck that overlooks the property,”
says Aviza, “and our main ballroom holds up to 350 people. We
also have Executive Chef, Paul
DelBuono, right here on the property. None of the food is catered
out; everything is made-to-order
fresh.”
Glen Ellen’s function manager, Meghan Masteron attends
to every detail, from the menu to
the room setup, to special requests
from guests, says Aviza, and a
very loyal, versatile seasonal staff,
completes the package.
“Every single function guest
tells me how great the food is or
how great the service has been,”
says Aviza, “That’s because it’s
not about the quantity for us, it’s
about the quality.”

Living Buddha Nature - Teaching Love,
Compassion & Kindness
By Marjorie Turner Hollman
Ed Williamson has a simple philosophy: love, compassion and kindness. “That’s
the mission of this place,” he
noted recently when we visited Living Buddha Nature
in Millis to talk with Williamson and learn more about
what the center has to offer
area residents. Williamson,
owner of Living Buddha Nature, has studied for more than
25 years with top masters in
Karate, Kobudo and Tai Chi.
Living Buddha Nature Arts
and Wellness Center is at
969 Main Street, Centennial
Place, right next door to the
Millis Public Library—the
entrance and parking is in the
back of the building, where
they share the large parking
area with the Millis Library.
Living Buddha Nature’s
space is uncluttered, the walls
simply decorated by local
artists who have the opportunity to display their work
while adding to the beauty of
this welcoming space. Living
Buddha Nature displays a rotating selection of art by local
artists, which not only adds to
just to fill the space.”
“People come here to find
ways to make their life better,”
Williamson said. “We have
group classes: meditation;
yoga; Tai Chi and Qigong;
music; dance; belly dancing;
the beauty of the space
but provides a venue for
artists to get their work
out in front of the public.
Open since last June,
2014, Living Buddha
Nature has five separate
spaces, plus a studio
space for group classes.
“I thought it was too big
at first, “Williamson said.
“Then people started
getting interested in being
involved in the center, and
I wanted to be able to grow.
I have, however, taken my
time finding the right people
to teach and practice here. I
don’t want to compromise
healing through sound—
drumming, crystal bowls,
didgeridoo, and chanting.”
The center also offers music
concerts, and Sunday morning meditation sessions. The
Sunday meditation proceeds
all go to local
charities.
Williamson
was pleased to
recently invite
Ed Schaeffer to
join the growing list of people
who offer classes
and therapies at
Living Buddha
Nature. Schaef-
Nia Movement; 5 elements
fitness groups, which involves
hands-on stretching and manipulation. Our two massage
therapists are available by appointment. Harmony weavers

fer was the
physical therapist at Boston
Sports Club in Franklin for
25 years until it closed quite
recently, and now the people
of Millis have Schaeffer’s
knowledge and expertise right
here in town.
“Teachers come to me and
ask what our rules are,” Williamson said. “I shrug and say,
‘Turn off the lights when you
leave. Shut the door.’ I keep it
simple. But what I do expect
from teachers is for them to
teach what they know, not
what they don’t know. You
can always tell if someone
simply read something in a
book. I ask that they teach
from their hearts, from their
experience. If you just teach
what you know, it’s enough.
Students know if the teacher
is teaching something that is
real.”
Williamson is a long-time
tai chi practitioner, and leads
classes in the discipline Tuesday nights. He shook his head
at the thought of those who
might take a weekend class
and become “certified” to
teach various disciplines in
the healing and energy arts.
“If that’s how it works, then
I’m a very slow learner,” he
smiled.
There
are classes,
events
and space
being used
by practitioners at
Living Buddha Nature
every day of
the week, and
yet there is a
sense of calm
when you
walk in the
door. Part of
the philosophy
of the place
is that trying
new things is
a safe thing
to do. “Every
first class here
is free,” Williamson explained. “How do you know
if the class is for you if you
haven’t tried it? Living Buddha Nature means living a life
of love, compassion and kindness. We want to be a center
to help people discover, learn
and practice the arts of life.
If I can help people aspire to
that, it’s a good thing.”

them a call at (508) 376-2333.

Nothing to Lose....But Pounds
When 41 year old Stefanie
Youssef walked into New England Fat Loss on October 29,
2014 it was a bittersweet day. She
was confronting the reality of her
excess pounds and the effect her
weight was having on her physical
health, but was also excited to take
that first step towards a healthier
lifestyle.
“It was a sad day,” Youssef said.
“I didn’t have the motivation, but
getting there is the first step, then
actually seeing that [body] scan
and how unhealthy my body was,
was enough motivation for me.”
Although now motivated,
Youssef was a little skeptical on
that first visit as she had unsuccessfully attempted many other
weight loss plans. Will it work?
How much is too much to invest in
losing weight? When she learned
more about the program and its
guarantee, however, there was no
turning back.
Youssef did not need to take
advantage of the guarantee. In her
first 40 days, which fell during
the holiday season, she shed 31.6
pounds. She was so impressed
with the program; she joined for a
second 40-day round and lost approximately 20 more pounds! As

of April 12, 2015 she has dropped
over 80 pounds and has incorporated an exercise program into her
new lifestyle.
“I just joined karate with my
two kids,” Youssef said. “It feels
good to be exercising again.”
In addition to the guided program and her personal commitment to her health, Youssef credits
the New England Fat Loss staff
as a significant factor in her success. Their consistent support and
encouragement gave her valuable
tools to successfully reach her
goals.
“Dr. John checks in with you
every single day,” Youssef said.
“My primary care physician
doesn’t even do that. The enthusiasm at the office is also really
nice. They genuinely want you to
be healthy.”
Through the education she
received from New England Fat
Loss, Youssef is now aware of her
personal fat burning and fat storing foods and continues to make
beneficial menu choices that will
direct her to her goal weight.
Youssef’s successful journey

Millis Alum Fulbright Scholar!
Millis High School would like
to congratulate Molly Alper (MHS
Class of 2011) who has received
a prestigious Fulbright Scholarship. The goals of the Fulbright
program are to promote “international good will through the exchange of students in the fields of
education, culture, and science,”
and to provide “opportunities for
students and young professionals
to undertake international graduate study and advanced research.”
Fulbright Scholarships are highly
competitive with fewer than 5%
of applicants receiving awards.
Molly, who recently graduated
from Loyola University in New
Orleans where she was a doublemajor (Spanish and Sociology),
was selected from a field of over
70 highly qualified candidates
who applied to work in Argentina. Molly will be working at a
human trafficking shelter to create
a report outlining ways to improve
social services for victims of
human trafficking. Her research
will be published in both English
and Spanish. According to Molly,
Make Her Mother’s Day
Beautiful This Year
“Not only am I excited for the
adventures and experiences that
await me through the Fulbright,
but I am thankful for the Millis
Spanish Immersion program that
helped open doors to this opportunity.”
Millis High School is proud to
congratulate Molly and her family
on this outstanding achievement.

On May 20, Chris Herren Will Speak on
Heroin Abuse
By J.D. O’Gara
The Millis Lions Club wants to
save individuals from addiction,
and this month, they’re presenting
a program at Millis High School/
Middle School to help prevent
your family from becoming part
of the statistics. On May 20 at 7
p.m. at Millis High School, the
Millis Lions invite parents, teachers, and young adults alike to
come and listen to Chris Herren,
of the Herren Project (theherrenproject.org), as the former NBA
player, now clean and author of
Basketball Junkie, talks about his
fall from grace and his personal
struggles and triumphs over heroin addiction.
“The main reason for us to
actually do this project within
our club is there have been several members that actually know

people who have died.” says Millis Lions President Debbie Hayes,
who felt compelled to educate the
community about this problem.
Herren, she says, often visits students to talk candidly about heroin
addiction, but others in the community, says Debbie, need to hear
his message as well.
The Herren Project was
formed in 2011 to increase education and public awareness on the
dangers of substance abuse and
to assist one person, one family
at a time through a combination
of treatment navigation, educational initiatives, mentoring, and
public awareness. Drug-free and
alcohol-free since August 1, 2008
Chris Herren has refocused his
life to put his sobriety and family
above all else. He attends meetings to support his substance free
lifestyle and often speaks before
groups trying to overcome addiction to share his experiences and
road to sobriety.
“Even though we’re a small
community, we’re not immune
to the heroin plight,” says Millis
Fire Chief Rick Barrett. “We’ve
had several heroin deaths.” Barrett says that over this past winter,
the number of overdoses in Millis, from all drugs, not just heroin,
ranged about two to three a month,
with an upward tic for those aged
25 and older.
“This is a bigger problem than
just Massachusetts,” says Chief
Barrett, who attended a meeting
in Washington, DC with a group
of Norfolk County fire chiefs to
discuss the problem “The issue
is big on the radar in Washington
– opiate addiction, prescription
medications, pharmacies not cross
referencing, doctors over prescribing these medications.”
“We all look at this community
as being this safe, quiet place to
live, so fact we might have a heroin problem actually floored me,”
says Hayes, who says that even
students she knows from the community, peers of her daughter’s,
are “strung out.” Part of the problem, she says, is how inexpensive
heroin is.
“Sadly, it’s increasing, and it’s
affecting every demographic in
the area, wealthy or financially
challenged, it doesn’t matter,”
adds Diana Faust, Region Chair
of Zone S for The Lions Club
District 33K.
According to Norfolk County
District Attorney’s office, in Norfolk County, in 2013, 64 people
lost their lives to a drug overdose,
and another 60 had lost their lives
to overdose by November of the
next year. The Millis Lions website, www.millislionsclub.org,
cites a January 2015 Milford Daily
report that 103 people, or 70% of
those who died from drug related
deaths in Middlesex County last
year died from heroin overdoses.
DrugAbuse.gov statistics report
over nine million individuals in
our country are addicted to heroin,
and that an estimated 23%, nearly
one in four, of those who try heroin become dependent on it. In
2011, 4.2 million people over age
12 had tried the drug.
The Millis Lions Club believes
education is the key to prevention.
The presentation by the Herren
Project is one way it’s reaching
out to the community, and the
second part is by providing information packets to attendees of the
event, including specific information for families and friends of
those suffering with addiction.
The Millis Lions are asking
the community to help bring this
awareness program to town and
help prevent as much pain as possible by funding the effort on a
crowdfunding site at Indiegogo.
com. 100% of all monies raised
will go to fund this program. At
Indiegogo.com, search for “Millis Lions – Stop Heroin and Substance Addiction.”
On their website, the Millis
Lions Club acknowledges that it
can’t solve this problem without
your help, and that every one of
us knows someone affected by addiction.
Lions Clubs International in
general, and the Millis Lions
Club in particular, give back
100% of all monies raised to
their local and surround communities. For more information

LIVING HEALTHY
Lasers and the Eye
By: Roger M. Kaldawy, M.D.,
Milford Franklin Eye Center
Lasers can be very useful in
treating many eye problems. From
helping patients eliminate the
need for glasses to cosmetic procedures of the eyelids, lasers have
been very valuable in performing
bladeless eye surgery while producing precise and safe outcomes.
The world of eye surgery was
revolutionized when in 1946, a
German Ophthalmologist used
the first laser to treat the retina.
Laser is light amplified by stimulated emission of radiation. This
produces photons acting in synchrony, with high power and precision.
Health risks from the use of
laser pointers
Lasers can be very helpful as
a bladeless surgical device, but a
note of caution: Laser pointers in
hand-held, pen-like devices that
project a beam of laser light are
rapidly replacing the traditional
wooden pointers used by lecturers
during presentations. However,
these pointers can be misused,
for example, by students in classrooms or by children at home, and
this has generated safety concerns.
There have been reports of temporary blindness, disorientation and
headaches by bus drivers, airline
pilots, police and teachers. Manufacturers are now using similar
low powered laser devices in toys.
Never look at a laser pointer and
never point it at someone. Serious
eye injury (sometimes permanent)
can result.
Laser use in Diabetes
In some cases of diabetic eye
disease, small blebs can form on
the blood vessels of the retina.
These can later cause bleeding and
blurry vision. An Argon Laser can
be helpful in treating these blebs.
The same laser can treat the entire
retina in a scatter fashion when
more proliferation of abnormal
blood vessels is noted.
Laser use in Glaucoma
The laser can be used in a focused beam of light to treat the
drainage angle of the eye. This
surgery makes it easier for fluid
to flow out of the front part of the
eye, decreasing pressure in the
eye. Two types of laser eye surgery exist to open up the drainage angle of the eye: Argon laser
trabeculoplasty and selective laser
trabeculoplasty.
Laser use after cataract surgery
The lens capsule is the thin
bag that holds the intraocular lens
implant in position after cataract
surgery. This capsule becomes
clouded in about 25% of cataract surgery patients. This causes
blurry vision and is also known as
secondary cataract. A YAG laser
can create a small opening in the
center of the capsule, allowing
light to enter the eye through a
central clear area. The procedure
is painless, requires no anesthesia,
and has very little risk.

Adult Day Care: Helping Seniors Stay Home Longer
Most of us don’t envision
spending our golden years in a
skilled nursing home or assisted
living. This is largely due to our
emotional connection to our
home where we have memories,
where we moved as newlyweds
and where we have watched our
children, grow making memories
sometimes over the course of decades. Sometimes, that was the
last place we were able to see or
spend time with our spouse who
has passed away.
Regardless of the reason, that
connection is often a basis for
who we feel we are. Beyond the
emotional attachment, there is
also the financial attachment to
the home. It’s paid for, and the
equity in our home is often a
major part of senior’s financial
security during the retirement
years. The longer one stays at
home the less overall expenses
paid out to assisted living or nursing home on average.
On average, 1 in 3 men and or
women over age 65 will suffer a
fall each year. These falls often
require a hospital stay and which
frequently lead to a rehabilitation or long term care stay for
the extended recovery time from
strains or broken bones. Unfortunately, a fall is often the precursor
of a general decline in a senior’s
health, forcing them to consider
living options other than their
own “home.” Fortunately, there
are other options such as making changes to the home adding
safety rails, and ramps etc.
Adult day care is also another
option for people who are not
quite ready to move to a long
term care facility or assisted living. This option allows individuals to put off the move yet receive
the care and support they need
during the day. Adult day centers provide hot nutritious meals,
often both breakfast and lunch
as well as a snack. Additionally,
these types of facilities provide
activities, entertainment, and
sometimes transportation to and
from. Some even provide rides
and a staff person to go with the
individual to doctor appointments.
“I was constantly worrying
about my dad unless I was there
with him,” Cindy Smith said.
“I was running myself ragged,
trying to be there helping him,
trying to work and keep up my
own family life and home,” adding, wasn’t working.” That is
when a friend mentioned the
idea of adult day care to her. At
first it seemed a little strange but
as I started thinking about it the
idea grew on me. I could have
someone with my dad during the
day and my siblings and I could
check in on him at night. It was
the perfect solution.
Your local adult day care center is Hopkinton Health Center
located at 25 South St. F, Hopkinton and open Monday-Friday;
8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and may be covered by some insurance benefits

New Medway Baseball Coach
Coppinger Sets Sights On
Tournament Berth
By KEN HAMWEY
Mike Coppinger is Medway
High’s new baseball coach, but
he’s hardly new to the Mustangs’
program.
At Medway High, Coppinger
was an all-star pitcher, throwing
three no-hitters during the two
years he served as a captain. After
a successful career at Merrimack
College, the 29-year-old Coppinger became an assistant for the
Warriors before taking the juniorvarsity coaching reins at Wellesley

“Devin hits for power, is a good
fielder and has a strong arm,’’ Coppinger said. “He’s a tough out at
the plate. Jake is fast and will be
used as a backup.’’
Others who are ticketed for
infield duty are junior Andrew
DeCristoforo, senior Jack Travers
and sophomore Dan Monaghan.
“Andrew has good hands and has
some power,’’ Coppinger said.
“Jack can fill in at first base or as

Junior Tyler Monahan played

sophomore Matt Brown in reserve. “Tyler has a strong arm, his
instincts are good and he hits for
power,’’ Coppinger noted. “I’m
confident he’ll handle our pitching
staff well. Matt has been injured
but he should be returning soon.’’
The outfield is being patrolled
by a trio of juniors — Joe Downing, Jeff Wenzel and Jeff Costello
— with sophomore Sean Petinge
in reserve. “Joe hit .330 last year,’’
Coppinger recalled. “He moves
fast, is aggressive on the bases and
hits for power. Wenzel was our
leadoff hitter last year. He’s got
good speed, can bunt and works
pitchers for walks. Costello is
strong, has a powerful arm and is a
quality hitter. He’s a well-rounded
player. Sean likely will be used at
first, in the outfield or as a DH.
He’s a tremendous athlete who can
run and hit for power.’’
Besides Leland on the mound,
Coppinger lists juniors Pat Harrigan and Seth Coppinger (coach’s
brother) as the second and third
hurlers in the rotation with
Costello available when he’s not
in the outfield.
“Pat is a lefty who has a good
fastball, curve and change-up,’’
said Coppinger. “He was 3-1 last
year with an E.R.A. of 3.30. He’s
strong and has good control. Seth
throws hard, relying on a fastball,
curve and change-up, and Costello
has a steady arm and good control.
We’ll use him in relief, too.’’
Still planning on coaching
AAU baseball and assisting his father, Ted, with Medway’s Senior
Babe Ruth team, Coppinger rates
defending state champion Bellingham and Westwood as the top
teams in the TVL.

Millis Softball Keeps Climbing
By Christopher Tremblay
Much like most of the Millis
athletic programs, the Softball
team plays in the Tri Valley
League against some of the
top teams in Division 1 and 2
during the regular season, but
when it comes time to postseason play, the Mohawks do
battle with other Division 3
teams.
Last spring, Millis went
7-15 on the field earning themselves a spot in the Division 3
South Softball Tournament
where they eventually fell to
Nantucket 6-4 in the Quarter
Finals. This year Coach RJ
Maturo is hoping that his girls
can improve upon their tournament performance.
“It has been a long time
since a Millis softball team has
been able to win seven games,”
he said. “I’m hoping that we can
finish .500 this season (it’s been
some 30 years since a Millis team
has done so) and earn our spot in
the tournament. I’m also looking
for this team to be more competitive.”
From their seven win season
Millis will return 12 athletes
that should make a difference.
Sophomore Carley Wenzel will
be looked to as the ace of the
staff when on the mound and is
also one of the Mohawks’ best
hitters posting a .457 batting
average last spring.
“She is a tremendous athlete, who has been playing
summer ball, and the coaches
there couldn’t believe she
was only a freshman in high
school,” Maturo said.
Other pitchers for the Mohawks will be junior Abby
Wine, who will play third base
when she is not on the mound,
and freshman left-hander
Emily Malewicz. According
Coach RJ Marturo is proud Millis
to the Coach, Malewicz should

when he’ll be able to use her.
Offensively sophomore centerfielder Abby Pyenson (.367) will
give the Mohawks a left-handed
bat in the leadoff spot. Although
quick out of the box and a threat
once on the base paths the Coach
has been truly impressed with her
defensive play in the outfield.
“She is one of the best I’ve ever
seen,” Maturo said. “What she did
for us at the end of the season and
into the tournament was amazing.
She had two diving catches that
she turned into double plays.”
Junior Emma LaCroix, a three
year starter at shortstop and sophomore catcher Sam Cullen will also
supply Millis with some offensive
power. LaCroix batted .411 and
had the Mohawks only home run
last season. She also has good
range in the field and will hit in
the two hole for Millis giving the
Mohawks a nice one-two punch at
the top of the order with Pyenson.
While Cullen will provide some
offensive power at the plate, she
has come a long way since her
freshman season last year with her
defense behind the plate.
Along with LaCroix, four-year
players Colby Zitoli (left field)
and Ashley Goes (first base) will
also captain the Mohawks to what
Maturo hopes is a historic season
for Millis.
“I am proud of what this team
has accomplished during my four
years. We are no longer the laughing stock of the TVL, but I still
want to make this team better,” the
coach said. “We have a lot of kids
who have been with us and the
younger kids coming up have been
playing travel ball, going to camps
and have coming together nicely.
We could seriously be fighting for
a league championship, maybe not
this year but definitely in the near
future.”

Millis Beautification Day Saturday, May 9
By B.A. Hilton
If you want to make a difference and show pride in Millis,
then circle Saturday, May 9, on
your calendar. Join other volunteers for the 11th Annual Millis
Beautification Day, from 8 a.m.
to noon, rain or shine. This year’s
town-wide cleanup is taking place
a month later than usual. “Meteorologists said we might
still have snow-covered ground in
mid-April,” said Bonnie Hilton,
Co-President of Millis Garden
Club and event Co-Chair. “We
never considered canceling our
clean-up. Civic beautification is
one of the main goals of the Millis Garden Club and MBD is the
highlight of our year.”
Co-sponsored by the Millis Garden Club and the Millis
Lions Club, Millis Beautification
Day brings the community together for a few hours to rake,

weed and remove litter. “With
milder May temperatures, we expect at least 200 volunteers to turn
out,” said Millis Lion Bill Lawson,
Co-Chair of the event. “We get a
great cross section of volunteers -scouts, church groups, town board
and commission members, junior
ROTC members. Even folks from
other towns join the Garden Club
and the Millis Lions Club.” Many students from the Millis public schools – from athletic
teams to the newly formed Millis
High School Leos —along with
their teachers and parents make a
huge impact. Organizing the students for the second consecutive
year are junior Sagar Desai and
senior Louis DePace.
Maryann Ziemba, Millis High
School social studies teacher and
event steering committee member,
observed, “Millis Beautification
Day has become a special tradition for our students. Millis young
people are a key part of this collaboration to make Millis brighter
than the day before. It’s a favorite
community service day for them.
They see the immediate, positive
effects of their clean-up efforts.”
Last year, community volunteers made a big difference. They
filled 200 leaf bags, 140 bags of
trash, and 5 small dump truck
loads of brush and dead trees.
“Our budget was already limited before this winter’s storms,”

said Jim McKay, Assistant Director of the town’s Department of
Public Works. “Snow removal
costs this year have been dramatic.
The Garden Club and the Lions
Club do Millis a great service by
organizing this event. We could
never accomplish this much on
our own.”
Early in May, event organizers
will identify sites to be cleaned
up. Sites usually include the busiest public roads, town parks, areas
around the schools, the Veterans
Memorial Building, and recreation
spots like Richardson’s Pond. “Litter is a community problem. People don’t think about it when they
toss their cigarette butts and trash
along the roads. They’re decreasing property values and reducing
our quality of life,” said Hilton.
“We love hearing after the event
about how nice the town looks because of our clean up. We’d love
it even more if people didn’t litter
at all.”
For the first time, this year all
volunteers are asked to bring reusable water bottles.
In the U.S., we consume 1,500
bottles of water per second. “Per
second,” emphasized, Hilton. Only
20% of those bottles get recycled.
“We could have a tremendous positive impact on the environment by
switching to drinking tap water.
We just have to change our habits
& outlook,” said Hilton.
More volunteers mean more
sites. And the work goes more
quickly. “We build community
spirit and pride when town residents come together and help,”
said Lawson. “This is a great opportunity to make the town look
nice, and we save tax dollars. It
takes just a few hours on a Saturday morning. And it’s a nice way
to meet others.”
Registration on Millis Beautification Day begins at 7:30 a.m. at
the registration tent on the grounds
of Veterans Memorial Building on
Main Street. Thanks to the generous support of local businesses,
coffee and refreshments are provided. All workers must bring and
wear gloves and are encouraged
to bring their own rakes. Advance
registration is recommended, but
not mandatory. Site assignments
will be made at registration. For

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Launches Second
“Good to Know” Advertising Campaign #GoodToKnow
Campaign focuses on brand
awareness, agent expertise and
consumer diversity; $50,000
Sweepstakes announced in conjunction with HGTV and hit TV
show Fixer Upper
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, part of the HSF Affiliates LLC family of real estate
brokerage franchise networks, and
Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Page Realty have launched
a new national advertising campaign to increase brand awareness
and demonstrate agents’ expertise
through the real estate process.
The multi-media campaign,
produced by BBDO Minneapolis, positions Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices as a brand
that’s “Good to know” when selling or buying homes. It features
a poignant television spot that
captures the emotional gamut of
the home-sale process. The spot,
titled “Calls,” includes vignettes of
home sellers who get the call from
their Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices agents with the news
their homes have sold.
“You immediately sense clients’ relief, excitement and elation as they receive and share the
good news with loved ones,” said
Gino Blefari, CEO of HSF Affiliates. “Our message captures the
honesty of the selling process and
demonstrates the true value of our
knowledgeable agents.”
The campaign casts a diverse
set of home sellers to ensure the
commercial reflected real-life experiences and emotions, including
a single mother, empty nesters and
same-sex partners. “We celebrate
the diversity of our clients,” explained Kerry Donovan, Berkshire
Hathaway HomeServices vice
president for Marketing. “Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices is
in business to help everyone with
their real estate goals and dreams.”
The campaign launched¬
March 16 with 30- and 15-second spots airing on HGTV, along
with print and digital segments
in industry trade publications. As
part of the campaign, Berkshire
Hathaway HomeServices will
sponsor HGTV’s popular show
Fixer Upper featuring remodeling
and design pros Chip and Joanna
Gaines, and will launch the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
$50,000 Sweepstakes in conjunction with the show. From March
30 through mid-June, viewers
simply register at www.50kFixUp.
com for a chance to win $50,000
toward a home improvement or
renovation project. The prize will
include a design consultation with
the Gaineses.
“We’d love to see the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
$50,000 Sweepstakes winner
come from our market area,” said
Paul Rao, Broker-Owner of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
Page Realty in Medway.” “We
urge our clients and local residents
to log on to www.50kFixUp.com
and register.”
Finally, the Gaineses will appear in specially produced short
videos featuring design and renovation tips to maximize home-sale
potential. Those tips will appear
on HGTV and related digital
properties.
“We’re excited to be featured
on HGTV and work with Chip
and Joanna Gaines,” said Donovan. “HGTV is incredibly popular among our key demographics
and Chip and Joanna have one of
the hottest shows on the network.
We anticipate another big step this
year for Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ brand awareness.”

Franklin Student Wins National Gold Medal in Music
CONGRATULATIONS, PREM PENDKAR!!
A number of students from Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios, located in Franklin
and Millis, participate in the Royal
Conservatory Music Development
Program (RCMDP) assessment
sessions each year. The RCMDP
assessment process represents an
extremely exciting opportunity
for students, on a national level,
to demonstrate the skills that they
have honed through continual
practice. Locally, assessments are
held at Encore Music Academy
and Recording Studios, which
is a Founding School and a re-
gional assessment center for this
international program. Student
participants come from all around
the New England area, many traveling from as far away as Maine,
Connecticut, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Rhode Island, and the
Cape. The adjudicators travel
from all across Canada in order
to administer the exams. Not only
do the adjudicators judge students
based on ability to perform on the
instrument of their choice within
their skill level, but they also administer academic assessments in
music theory, harmony, history,
and analysis.
The Royal Conservatory Music
Development Program provides
a recognized national standard
of success in music study from
beginner to advanced levels. It
inspires excellence through individual student assessments that are
central to the Program, while also
supporting teachers with highquality and innovative resources.
The RCMDP allows students to
measure and celebrate accomplishment and track their progress throughout the country. All
students and teachers across the

Steve Bullock
United States are invited to participate, and Encore Music Academy
and Recording Studios is proud to
be able to offer these opportunities
at the school and through outreach
to the surrounding communities.
Prem Pendkar, who lives in
Franklin and studies both voice
and piano at Encore, has been
awarded the National Gold Medal
for 2014 in Level 3 Voice. The
RCMDP awards Gold Medals to
the students who have achieved
the highest score in the country
within their specific skill level
for each instrument on the Music
Development Program assessment. Prem, now 10 years old, has
been studying voice and piano at
Encore for over two years. Under
the guidance of his vocal instructor, Lisa Ostrow, Prem began his
studies in voice using the curriculum of the RCMDP right from
the start. Lisa Ostrow, a director
and co-owner of Encore Music
Academy and Recording Studios,
had this to say: “Having already
earned High Honors With Distinction, (which requires a score of 90
or higher), in three levels of vocal
study with the RCMDP, and High
Honors in two levels of piano,
Prem’s National Gold Medal is
a true testament to the dedication
he brings to his music studies, the
level of support he receives from
his family, his innate talent, and
his tremendous desire to achieve.
We here at Encore could not be
more proud of his accomplishments. And, best of all, Prem is
an absolute joy to work with - fun
and funny, and incredibly bright.
We are very proud of him, as we
are of all our students.”
In December, 2014, Prem received High Honors With Distinction on his Level 4 vocal
assessment with a score of 90. He
will be taking his Piano Level 3
assessment this May.
For the assessments, students
are graded on proficiency in the
following areas: Performance;
technical requirements; aural
skills; rhythm; and, sight-reading
ability.
Encore will be hosting another
round of regional assessments this
spring and is very much looking
forward to the opportunity to meet
and interact with young musicians
from all over the Northeast.
Encore Music Academy and
Recording Studios, located at 3
Bent Street in Franklin, MA, and
352 Village Street in Millis, MA,
is a Royal Conservatory Music
Development Program Founding
School and an official assessment
center.

To all of My Patients in
Medway, Holliston, Millis and
Surrounding Communities
I would like to take the opportunity to express my
sincere appreciation for your patronage over the
past 23 years. It has been my pleasure to help
when you had a need for physical therapy.
Ortho Sport Physical Therapy has been acquired
by Teamwork Physical Therapy.
During my time in Medway, I have been fortunate
to have become friends with many of my patients.
To those who are members of the “Hotel California Club,” thank you for your loyal support.
I will continue on at Teamwork Physical Therapy
for the next few months. Please feel free to contact
me with any questions or concerns.
Again, my heart felt thanks to all of you that made
Ortho/Sport Physical Therapy a success.
Teamwork is an extremely professional and conSincerely,
scientious organization. I am confident that the
level of care you receive will be equivalent to what
you are accustomed to at Ortho/Sport.
Nick Passaretti
T
eamwork
would like
to congratulate Nick
on his retirement
from the physical
therapy profession.
Teamwork is excited to continue
Nick’s work serving the Medway
and surrounding communities with
outstanding personalized physical
therapy. Please visit our website
for further
information.
Teamwork would
also like to welcome
Nate McMahan as
our clinical
director in the
Medway clinic.
Nate grew up
locally and is excited to become
part of the community once again
with his wonderful wife and daughter. Nate’s father has coached at
Medway High School for several
years and Nate looks forward to
delivering the best care to the
people of Medway.
