interested in science.
“I’m here to show you a cool
piece of science,” said ‘mad scientist’ Alex Salhany, who uses
the moniker Dr. Protist. “Pun
intended.”
Carbon dioxide freezes at
negative 90 degrees Fahrenheit –
t would be a major surprise if
Keith Davies did not know
every rock and every bend of
every river in the Northeastern
U.S.
When Ludlow resident Davies,
coordinator for the Chicopee 4
Rivers Watershed Council, guided
the group paddle to Indian Leap on
Saturday, he displayed this encyclopedic knowledge. For Davies,
each rapid, each rock and even the
depth of the water has a story to
tell.
The group paddle was meant to
raise awareness of the unique geographical features on the section of
the Chicopee River between Indian
Orchard and Ludlow. According to
lore of the area, during the King
Philip’s War, a group of Native
Americans jumped from the steep
cliffs along the river rather than
face capture by the attacking settlers. From this event, the area
derives its name – Indian Leap.

LUDLOW – “True teachers are
those who use themselves as
bridges over which they invite their
students to cross, then having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create
bridges of their own,” said Nikos
Kazantzakis.
Much like the aforementioned
quote, during her almost 40-year
career in the Ludlow Public
Schools, Diana Roy was not only a
bridge for many students, but for
colleagues as well. Roy's gift as an
educator meant she inspired others
to become the architects of their
dreams, and as a result, a plethora
of new bridges have been constructed by those she touched.
It was this dedication and selflessness in her role as the Director
of Curriculum and Learning that

LUDLOW – Scouts were
recently recognized at a special
ceremony and they celebrated
those efforts “Like a Girl.”
As part of Ludlow Service
Unit’s 2016 Bridging and
Recognition Ceremony, Scouts and
leaders shined a spotlight on the
accomplishments of the town’s
young ladies while offering a focus
and a special presentation aimed at
instilling pride and kicking out old
stereotypes.
“To do something ‘like a
girl’…to throw ‘like a girl’, to play
‘like a girl’…what does that actually mean?” Scouts from Troop
12814 asked in a video they created as part of the Power Girls Up
campaign. “Girls can do anything.”

LUDLOW – Of the many fascinating pieces of local history and
art that can be found in the
Hubbard Memorial Library, the art
gallery near the entry way is
among the most gripping. The naturalistic paintings that adorn the
walls of the art case show areas of
Ludlow
and
Western
Massachusetts with the richness of
someone who has lived there.
When Ludlow resident Lois
Kalesnik turned 80 years old, she
says, she decided to reinvent herself as an artist. Having done arts
and crafts for her whole life, the
logical step for Kalesnik was to try
her hand at painting. Most of her
paintings that appear in the
Hubbard Memorial Library – she
also has an exhibit in the
Wilbraham Public Library – deal
with local subjects and settings.

“All of those pictures have a
story behind them,” Kalesnik said.
For Kalesnik, she says, most of
those stories revolve around her
memories and connections to the
local landscape.
“I did a painting for my son and
his wife of a sugar house,” she
said. “It came out really good, so I
started painting other things. My
family thought they came out kind

LUDLOW – James and Jill Byrne
bid on an auction package at the
Ludlow Community Center Randall
Boys and Girls Club Annual Auction
event in April, held at the Ludlow
Country Club. The auction package
included an ice cream themed basket, as
well as naming rights to an ice cream
with ingredients of the winner’s choice
at Elsie’s Creamery. This package was
generously donated by Karen Randall
of Randall’s Farm and Greenhouse,
who is a sponsor and long-time supporter of the Ludlow Community Center
Randall Boys & Girls Club.
The ice cream was named “Susan’s
Delight” in honor of Susan Jaciow,
originally from Ludlow, who died in
2013 from cancer. Susan’s family and
friends described Susan as a fun-loving,
“delightful” outgoing person. Susan’s
favorite color was purple.
James and Jill said they wanted to
honor Susan in a fun way. The ice
cream ingredients include purple black
raspberry ice cream with fudge swirls
and delicious raspberry cups. The ice
cream is now available at Elsie’s
Creamery and can be found on their
menu as “Susan’s Delight.”

The
Family, fun, and festivities frontline annual event
Christ the King Church
hosts picnic
By Timothy LaRoche
Staff Writer
LUDLOW – Christ the King Church will
hold their 31st annual Family Picnic on
Sunday, June 26.
“The Polish food is the big draw,”
Thomas Pichey, picnic chair, said. “I would
say we probably go through nearly 900 to
1,000 meals.”
This year’s picnic features such traditional
Polish food as pierogi, golumbki, kausta and
kielbasa, and standard American offerings –
such as hot dogs, hamburgers, French fries,
grinders, chicken barbeque and fried dough.
Take-out orders will be available on all food
starting at noon.
Pichey says that during meetings that took
place over the past four months, organizers
for the picnic have prepared more than
12,000 pierogis and 2,400 golumbki, 300
pounds of kielbasa and seven huge containers
of kapusta. And, as is the case with past picnics, the women from the parish will prepare
baked goods.
On average, the event draws close to
1,500 people. The picnic will also feature
some games and activities for children,
although, Pichey says, the picnic is mostly
catered to adults.
John Steven’s Doubleshot Polka Band
will perform from noon to 4 p.m., followed by music from Lenny Gomulka and
the Chicago Push from 5 p.m. until closing.
John Steven’s Doubleshot, from
Kingston, Pennsylvania, performs highenergy polka music for a number of occasions, polka festivals notwithstanding.
According to the band’s website, they aim
to spread the love of polka to a younger
generation.
Lenny Gomulka on the other hand, who
has called Ludlow his home since 1990,
plays in his own “Push” style of polka,
combing traditional and innovative elements.
“You can just see the crowd building
around 3 o’clock waiting for him to come
on,” Pichey said of Gomulka’s following in
the area.
The picnic will be held at the church at 15
Warsaw Ave. in Ludlow from noon to 9 p.m..
All proceeds of the picnic will go to maintaining and repairing the parish.
ERC5 seeks a thriving downtown Springfield
By Timothy LaRoche
Staff Writer
HAMPDEN – A thriving downtown
Springfield is key to reinvigorating all of
Western Massachusetts – at least that’s what
a number of members of the East of The
River Five Town Chamber of Commerce
believe.
At their annual meeting held this past
Friday, a renaissance in Springfield business
was the main point of discussion. More than
235 people, representing more than 100
businesses from the five aforementioned
towns gathered at the GreatHorse Country
Club in Hampden to discuss the future of
the Western Massachusetts business environment. The ERC5 serves Ludlow, East
Longmeadow, Longmeadow, Hampden, and
Wilbraham.
Seth Stratton, a representative from
MGM, was one of the highlighted speakers
of the day. As the work on MGM’s
Springfield project – which is projected
to cost $950 million dollars – continues,
Stratton says that the suburbs and surrounding
communities
around
Springfield will reap many benefits of
the project.
“The way to focus on the surrounding
communities is to focus on Springfield,”
Stratton said, joking that one of his primary
roles in the company is helping pronounce
the names of Massachusetts towns. “MGM is
very serious in understanding not only
Springfield, but the region.”
The idea of regional business collaboration was central to the meeting, and it was
especially relevant to members of the chamber, which advocates for and helps businesses
network and promote themselves in the
region.
Edward Zemba, second vice chair and
CEO and president of Robert Charles

NO REFERRAL OR APPOINTMENT NECESSARY.
Photography in East Longmeadow, also
spoke to the idea of regional thinking.
“It’s important that we not only think
regionally, but that we act regionally,” Zemba
said. “We deserve big picture thinking in
Western Mass., and if we don’t advocate for
it, who will?”
But although the casino was the main
topic of discussion, such speakers as state
Sen. Eric Lesser, D-Longmeadow, also
commented on the need for other large projects in parts of the state away from Boston –
most of which, he says, never experienced
the same degree of resurgence following
2008’s economic depression that Boston
did.
In much the same way as Zemba and
Stratton, Lesser says the key to developing
the region can be achieved through developments in Springfield. In addition to the casino
project, Lesser supports the creation of a
high-speed rail line connecting Springfield to
Boston.
Although some critics of the highspeed rail line have called the project
“unrealistic”, Lesser says that the project
has more potential than it is often given
credit. He cited the $3 billion project to
expand a four-mile section of train tracks
through Somerville as an example of the
state placing more emphasis on its eastern
reaches while neglecting Western
Massachusetts.
“We need strong voices advocating for
Western Mass.,” he said. “I’m proud to represent all five communities [of the ERC5].”
A number of business leaders from the
five communities were honored at the

meeting as well – such as Ludlow
Attorney Carmina Fernandez, who was
largely responsible for arranging the meeting.
“I love you guys, it’s like a family,”
Fernandez said upon accepting her award.
Nancy O’Connor, executive director
for ERC5, was also praised for her work
in recruiting new membership to the
chamber.
“This is who we are, this is part of the fabric of that makes us up,” Dennis Lopata,
ERC5’s president said. “And part of that is
Nancy O’Connor.”
In her 100 days in her role in the ERC5,
she has already recruited 28 new members.
“It is easy to engage people in an organization that is growing and is interesting and is
strong,” O’Connor said. “If you like to have
fun, if you like to celebrate success, this is the
place to be.”
Speakers from the ERC5 also thanked
GreatHorse Country Club for the use of
their facilities. The club, which overlooks a
swath of Massachusetts and Connecticut,
catered the event in their $45 million banquet hall. The luxury club is just one of the
projects that attendees praised for its commitments to developing Western
Massachusetts.
“GreatHorse could have chosen anywhere,” Zemba said. “But they chose
Western Mass.”
As the meeting and dinner ended, chamber members were guided on tours of the
country club. The platinum sponsors were
personally toured by GreatHorse General
Manager Brian Smithwick.

Children’s Summer
Reading Program kicks
off in Ludlow
By Timothy LaRoche
Staff Writer
LUDLOW – The Hubbard Memorial
Library kicked off their children’s summer
reading program in style last week.
Children filled the upper-level of the
library last Tuesday, running around and taking part in the various activities setup for
them. Participants were able to make such
crafts as Father’s Day crowns, reading goggles, and tie-dye pieces of paper. Most popular of the creative activities, however, was the
cookie decorating table, at which children
dumped various colored sugars and sprinkles
on top of sugar cookies.
Maybe it was the sugar that fueled much
of the fun, or maybe it was the potential to
earn prizes from the raffle. Whatever the
reason, children who attended the event
jumped at such activities as a bean bag toss
– the target was painted to look like a bookshelf – and face painting by library volunteers.
Hannah Zaitz, one of the library volunteers, took requests from the children who sat
at her story time section. Alongside her puppet helper, Smokey the Dragon, who acted
out the stories while her handler read aloud,
Zaitz gripped her audience with such tales as
those by author Mo Willems.

The duo read children’s stories aloud to a

At the tail-end of the event, raffle prizes
were given away. For the first few lucky
winners, the library donated posters to fit
in with the theme of summer reading.
Later on, the winners received tickets to
the Majestic Children’s Theater in West
Springfield.
Children’s Librarian July Siebecker says
the Majestic Theater donated the tickets for
the kickoff party. This summer, the theater
will present such plays as “The Frog Prince:
A Musical” by Robert Kinerk and Samuel
Beebe, “A Little Princess” by Frances
Hodgson Burnett, adapted by Stephen Petit

much colder than the freezing point of water.
When carbon dioxide’s frozen form – more
commonly known as “dry ice” – hits room
temperature air, it sublimates, which means
its skips the liquid form altogether and turns
directly into a gas. This causes the piece of
dry ice to appear as though it is shrinking. It
also causes the water in their air to condense
around it, creating a dense, white fog. This is
where the fun comes in.
Protist performed such tricks using this
property of dry ice as filling balloons and
holding pieces of the substance – always with
thick gloves, for safety – to a spoon to make
it “sing.”
“A magician and a scientist will do things
that shock amaze you,” he said. “Magicians
never reveal their tricks, but a scientist will
always reveal their tricks because we want
you to learn and understand.”
As the demonstration began, Protist invited a volunteer to the front of the group. He
took a small bottle from his table and squirted
its contents on his volunteer, leaving a large
blue stain on her clothes. He did the same to
himself, in solidarity. But as the two stood in
front of the room talking, the stains began to
fade until neither were visible, even on
Protist’s white lab coat. Not to break his
promise to explain his “tricks,” he detailed
the properties of acids and bases.
When the blue substance, which is a base,
came into contact with the carbon dioxide
from their breathing, which is an acid, the
stains were neutralized and disappeared.
Later in his presentation, Protist demonstrated the color changing properties of red
beet juice – which is known in scientific
communities as the universal indicator,
changing color depending on the acidity of
whatever substance with which it comes into
contact. The children in the room gazed as
Protist swirled a container of the substance,
changing its color by adding dry ice.
But if one were to describe the mood of
the room as excitement when Protist performed his color changing tricks, then it

event was the dry ice shower. “I like the way the bubbles exploded,” she said. “It was cool.”

perfumed the room with the scent of vanilla.
And when he walked around the room to
spray the fog in the participants’ faces, they
reported that it tasted like cream soda.
Gabriella Scibelli and her sister Brianna
said that the introduction of the “dry ice
burps” was their favorite part of the event.
Protist described it as a “healthy alternative to
soda” with all of the taste and none of the
calories of the sugary drink.
The cap off the demonstration, Protist
filled a candy cane shaped section of PVC
piping with hot water, dry ice and soap. The
result: heavy, fog-filled bubbles that fell to
the ground or popped on the heads of the
children in the room.
After Protist made several laps around the
room to distribute the bubbles, he ended with
encouraging words for the aspiring scientists
in the room.
“Science is all around us,” he said.
Dr. Protist uses his dry ice shower to make bubbles filled with fog.

past year, it’s apparent that the town’s
young ladies are truly capable of quite a
bit. Take Cadette Makenzie Mastorakis
from Troop 11139, for example.
“As leaders, as Scouts, we have a
love/hate relationship with cookies and
cookie time, but it’s part of what we do.
As a unit, we sold 19,614 boxes of
cookies, and one girl, as she has year
after year, set a goal and smashed
through it, yet again. Makenzie
Mastorakis is our Top Cookie Seller
one more year in a row having sold
more than 1,400 boxes of cookies,” said
Paul. “She’s a determined youth and
she truly is the ‘girl to be’.”
Paul also offered up thanks to parents and their families on all of the initiatives and endeavors embarked upon
in the past year, including collecting
561 pounds of food in the past 10
months for their open pantry project,
the backpack project for at-risk youth,
flagging of graves in Ludlow, and purchasing two picnic tables for [Girl
Scout] Camp Bonnie Brae in Otis.

Virtually
romantic
I
t was on the internet, so it must be
true…right? We’ve all seen something online
at one point or another and accepted it as fact
without looking more into it, but as it turns out,
not everything you see is going to be reality.
I was pounding away at
the keyboard the other night
when I received a notification on Facebook. It was a
friend request. I needed a
break anyways, so I decided
to take a closer look and see
who it was from.
The inner-monologue
went a little like this:
Hmmmm…well he’s actually pretty cute. And he’s in
the U.S. Army…he kind-of looks familiar…did
he just create a new profile? Wait, is that all the
photos he has? No one has liked any of them
yet…why? He’s really cute. Where’s he from?
Arizona…oh I have friends and family out there,
maybe we have mutual…not a single mutual
friend. His other friends are all women…from the
area…hmmm. Oh, and he’s single.
Because I don’t just “accept” anyone who
sends a request, I Googled his name, location and
profession and BINGO! Results immediately
emerge. As it turns out, my skepticism from this
single Romeo was a good thing. The first thing to
pop up was a warning about an online romance
scam from the military. Though the scams usually involve online dating websites, they have been
increasingly popular on Facebook too. According
to the Army’s Criminal Investigation Command,
apparently anyone involved with online dating
site or receives a friend request from an individual claiming to be a U.S. soldier currently serving
in Afghanistan – or elsewhere – should execute
extreme caution. Right after I received the friend
request, four others came in right after from individuals with lengthy names that I could not pronounce.
Some things to look for according to the
Criminal Investigation Command, include:
• They ask for money. A real soldier will not
need access to your bank account, money
shipped by Western Union or Money Gram.
• Be very suspicious if you never get to actually speak with the person on the phone or are told
you cannot write or receive letters in the mail.
Servicemen and women serving overseas will
often have an APO or FPO mailing address.
Internet or not, service members always appreciate a letter in the mail.
• Many of the negative claims made about the
military and the supposed lack of support and
services provided to troops overseas are far from
reality - check the facts.
• Be aware of common spelling, grammatical
or language errors in the emails.
• Be very suspicious of someone you have
never met and who pledges their love at warp
speed.
If anyone of these suggested things seem
familiar, here’s where to go for help:
Report the theft to the Internet Crime
Complaint Center (IC3) (FBI-NW3C
Partnership).Online: http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
Report the theft to the Federal Trade
Commission. Your report helps law enforcement
officials across the United States in their investigations. Online: ftc.gov/idtheft
By phone: 1-877-ID-THEFT (438-4338) or
TTY, 1-866-653-4261 By mail: Identity Theft
Clearinghouse, Federal Trade Commission,
Washington, DC 20580
Report the fraud to the Federal Trade
Commission on Nigerian Scams. Email:
[email protected].
Even though it was flattering to receive a
request from some random “cute guy in the military,” it was only virtually romantic. Do you like
a man in uniform? Scammers hope you do. Think
before you accept.

Basketball hoops are a slam-dunk
To the Editor:
I would like to publicly thank Dr.Steve
McDaniel for creating a new basketball park for
our towns teens out if his business parking lot. Dr
Steve has placed four basketball hoops in his lot.
He has even placed lights up. I am not sure how
many people are aware of this, but I know my
high schooler and his friends have been there many
times. I like knowing he's having fun with his
friends, while being safe and sound. This area is
visual to the street so not only can parents drive by
it is easily seen by police as well. There's few
places left for our teens after dark, and we are
grateful for the court he has created.
Thank you Dr. Steve McDaniel

ROY
The Register gets the royal treatment…
Teaming up with a group of Baird Middle School seventh and eighth graders while
school was out of session for April vacation, The Register helped explore the city of
London. From April 15 to April 25, students visited must-see locations throughout
London and outside of the city, including the The Royal Observatory, Buckingham
Palace, Tower of London, Big Ben, Stonehenge and Windsor Castle.

Outstanding Achievement for English
Learners.” Quite appropriately, this award
will recognize English learners determined to
successfully bridge language and culture barriers to flourish in the U.S.
The announcement of this award was
made at the recent eighth grade Promotion
and Awards Ceremony held on June 6.
Langone shared that the award was kept
secret from Roy until she heard his
announcement at the ceremony.
Langone said that as Roy’s June retirement quickly approached, the Baird Middle
School family wanted a way to honor her
contributions to the district, both as an
English teacher at Ludlow High School and
BMS, and as the current director of curriculum and learning, since 2011.
At her recent retirement celebration,
Roy shared that during her career she has
taught grades 7 to 12 English in the
Ludlow Public Schools. She explained
that her teaching career with the LPS
began when she accepted a position as a
substitute teacher in 1976. In 1977 she
was appointed as an English teacher at
LHS but spent the majority of her career
(27 years) at Baird Middle School.
“This award recognizes an English
Learner, who, by the completion of Grade 8,
has made significant progress in moving
toward spoken and written proficiency in
English,” said Langone. “I chose to honor
Mrs. Roy in this way in recognition of her
groundbreaking efforts in the Ludlow Public
Schools on the part of English learners
throughout her tenure as Director of
Curriculum and Instruction.”
The Register says ‘Ciao’ to Italy…
The Register took another trip to Europe. This time the paper accompanied a group
of 22 locals on a tour of Italy, led by Jim Martin of Ludlow (far right with tour manager Gary Bowling). The travelers are pictured here at Leonardo da Vinci Airport in
Rome after completing 13 days of touring, which included Rome, the Vatican,
Pompeii, the Sorrento Coast and the Isle of Capri, Florence, Pisa, Venice, Verona
and the Alpine Lake Region. Some members of the group also had dinner with
singing tenors in Rome or enjoyed a Tuscan feast in a 14th century monastery near
Florence. As one passenger stated, it was the “dream of a lifetime” to finally see the
Dome of St. Peter’s, the Colosseum of Rome, the ruins of Pompeii, the Leaning
Tower, the canals of Venice, and the beauty of the Alps, to name just a few of the
highlights.
Diana Roy, Prinicpal Joseph Langone, and
Assistant Prinicipal Mary Dobek speak at
the podium.
Roy was extremely proud and humbled by this award, stating, “To say I was
honored at having an eighth grade award
named after me is an understatement.
That this award is to recognize the
achievements of an English Learner
brought tears to my eyes. I have enjoyed
watching the development of students
who have come to us from countries all
over the world. I look forward to returning to the Baird Promotion Ceremony
each year to meet these students and congratulate them for their achievement!”
There is no doubt the Ludlow Public
School district will feel a void when Roy
retires at the end of the month on June 30.
This award, however, will be a yearly
reminder of how, for nearly 40 years, Diana
Roy, was a resplendent teacher, administrator, friend, and colleague, and a strong and
faithful bridge to so many.
KALESNIK
from Page 1
a good time. We had a strange winter, so
I ended up painting about 40 pictures.”
Two of her paintings that are featured in
the library show a tree that has been broken
and splintered a few years ago when it was
struck by lightning. Kalesnik’s grandson took
a photo of the tree, which she used as the
basis for one of her pictures to showcase the
sunset behind it.
“You see so many purples and blues in
the tree, which is really phenomenal,” she
said.
Other paintings in here exhibit show such
Western Massachusetts landmarks as the
bridge by Mount Holyoke College in South
Hadley, where, she says, she used to play as a
child. She also included paintings of Cape
Cod and some places in the United Kingdom
in her exhibit.
Although she has never received any formal training for her painting – she says she
learned to paint through trial and error, perfecting her process with each new project –
her work features strong leading lines that
seem to guide the eye along the horizon line
toward her subjects.
“If I don’t like what I have, I just paint
over it and do it again,” she said. “It’s very
rewarding.”
Nature features prominently in her work,
and, she says, she wants to create artwork
that would allow the viewers to become
immersed in the scene.
“I paint pictures of the things I love,” she
said.
Kalesnik’s paintings can be viewed in the
art case next to the entrance of the Hubbard
Memorial Library until the end of June.

The
Summer reading programs at Hubbard Memorial Library are open to all ages. Maintaining a daily practice of reading during the summer
is the only way to make sure readers don’t lose the literacy skills they worked so hard to acquire during the school year. Students often have
required or recommended reading, which is easier and more comfortable to handle if there is a structure for regular reading already in place.

ummer reading means enjoying
reading! Whether reading on their
own or being read to, kids love the
relaxation of reading during the summer.
The library has programs for all ages to
encourage summer reading:
THE PRE-READERS PROGRAM for
children who are not yet reading on their
own or who are just beginning to read,
THE READER’S PROGRAM for independent readers in elementary school, and
THE YOUNG ADULT READING PROGRAM
for middle and high school students.
As part of the program, kids will get a
bag with their reading program materials,
and will keep track of their reading on a
reading log, with the goal of reading for at
least 42 days (six weeks) of the summer.
Participants who complete this goal can
hand in their logs by Friday, Sept. 2 for an
envelope of prizes, including certificates
for free pizza, ice cream, cookies and other treats from local restaurants, plus other
prizes, including two tickets to the Aug. 25
Pawtucket Red Sox game!
CHILDREN AND TEENS who hand in
their completed log by 4 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 24 will also have a chance to win
the raffle for the grand prize, two tickets
to the Big “E” for pre-readers, a $75 gift
card to Bounce Springfield for elementary
school-aged readers, or a three-month
membership to Central Rock Climbing
Gym for young adults.

But the idea behind the group paddle was
that if the C4RWC can introduce residents to
the area, which is tucked away near the railroad tracks on Water Street in Indian Orchard,
those residents may take an interest in the area
and eventually work towards preserving it.
“I think if an area like this gets enjoyed
through paddling, then the opportunity to
engage people to do something regularly is
possible,” Davies said. “I think as we establish paddling maps, a side goal is always to
create a couple key people who will serve as
that trail segment steward team.”
If residents take an interest in their local
ecosystem, Davies says, they will want to
take stewardship over it. For the six people
who participated in the group paddle, stewardship and environmental protection was

floating along the shoreline.
“If we attract more people, we can do small
community groups,” Davies said. “We’ll work
with a coordinate a handful of groups and have
established places we can meet.”
Fire pits – likely the handiwork of local
teenagers – were visible along the banks of
the river, as were some shopping carts submerged in the water and graffiti spray-painted
on the rocks and ledges. At one point, in a
bend in the river near a cliff, there was even a
submerged pickup truck in the water.
However, trash wasn’t the only thing that
participants saw during the paddle. Various
types of wildlife – most notably, a bald eagle
– were visible in quitter areas of the river. A
flock of geese flew overhead, as did a heron
and a cormorant. And two turtles looked particularly comfortable basking in a sunny

The main draw to the area, however, is a
view of the falls under the bridge connecting
Ludlow to Springfield. However, the rapids
prevented many of the paddlers from getting
close enough to the falls for optimal viewing.
Before the paddle began, participants
cleaned some of the trash that was scattered
along the boat launch, and the area was left
slightly cleaner than it was found.

Ludlow Police Arrest Log
The Ludlow Police Department
responded to 352 calls for service from
Sunday, June 12 through Saturday, June
18. The department’s police officers
made 11 arrests or summons/warrant
arrests. There were three domestic
assault crime arrests. Per Massachusetts
law, no names of persons arrested for
domestic violence charges can be publicly disseminated. There were no arrests
for a mental health warrants and no person was placed into protective custody.
There was also one juvenile summons.
Those arrested or summonsed will
appear at future dates in court and are
innocent until proven guilty. The following were custodial arrests.
John Giasullo has graduated from the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy.
SPRINGFIELD – State Fire Marshal
Peter J. Ostroskey and Massachusetts
Firefighting Academy Director George D.
Kramlinger announced the graduation of
the second class to complete the
Massachusetts Firefighting Academy's
forty-five-day Career Recruit Firefighting
Training Program at the new Springfield
campus on June 7. The 22 graduates, all
men, represent the nine fire departments
of: Ludlow, Agawam, Amherst,
Easthampton, Holyoke, Northampton,
Springfield, West Springfield, and
Westfield. Among those from Ludlow Fire
is John Giasullo.
“This is an exciting day to see these
recruits complete their training at this new
facility," said State Fire Marshal Ostroskey.
"This rigorous professional training provides our newest fire-fighters with the basic
skills to perform their jobs effectively and
safely," said Ostroskey. "Being able to provide training closer to where western
Massachusetts fire-fighters live and work
has long been a goal of the Department of
Fire Services and the fire service leadership.”
The Massachusetts Firefighting
Academy (MFA), a division of the
Department of Fire Services, offers this
program, tuition-free.
This is the second recruit training program to be held at the Department of Fire
Services' Springfield campus. The state
bought the former Springfield Fire Training
Center from the city and recently completed
a $13.4 million renovation and construction
project on the 6-acre complex
Today's firefighters do far more than fight
fires. They are the first ones called to respond
to chemical and environmental emergencies,
ranging from the suspected presence of carbon monoxide to a gas leak. They may be
called to rescue a child who has fallen
through the ice or who has locked himself in
a bathroom. They rescue people from stalled
elevators and those who are trapped in vehicle crashes. They test and maintain their
equipment including self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA), hydrants, hoses, power
tools, and apparatus.
At the Massachusetts Firefighting
Academy they learn all these skills and
more from certified fire instructors who are
also experienced firefighters. Students learn
all the basic skills they need to respond to
fires and to contain and control them. They
are also given training in public fire education, hazardous material incident mitigation,
flammable liquids, stress management, confined space rescue techniques, and rappelling. The intensive, nine-week program
for municipal firefighters involves classroom instruction, physical fitness training,
firefighter skills training, and live firefighting practice.
Basic Firefighter Skills
Students receive classroom training in all
basic firefighter skills. They practice first
under non-fire conditions and then during
controlled fire conditions. To graduate, students must demonstrate proficiency in life
safety, search and rescue, ladder operations,
water supply, pump operation, and fire
attack. Fire attack operations range from
mailbox fires to multiple-floor or multipleroom structural fires. Upon successful completion of the Recruit Program all students
have met national standards of National Fire
Protection Association 1001 and are certified
to the level of Firefighter I and II, and
Hazardous Materials First Responder
Operational Level by the Massachusetts Fire
Training Council, which is accredited by the
National Board on Fire Service Professional
Qualifications.

Salon Accents celebrates
10 years of style

By Timothy LaRoche
Staff Writer
LUDLOW – When most people experience major milestones in their lives, their
first order of business is usually to get a
good haircut.
Lisa Taylor, owner of Salon Accents on
247 East St. in Ludlow, says the connection she forms with her clients during
these personal moments is one of the reasons she started cutting hair, and it is one
of the reasons she continues to do so
today.
Salon Accents, which she co-owns
alongside Lee Morrow, celebrates its 10th
anniversary this year.
Taylor opened Salon Accents in 2006
after working at a salon in Springfield for
14 years. She also worked as an educator
for Paul Mitchell, a cosmetics company,
exhibiting new products at schools and
businesses throughout the area. Her time
as an educator, she says, helped her start
her own business.
“My experience with that is what really
enabled me to do my own thing and want
to create a unique environment and work
together as a big team,” she said.
A bridal shop that burned down in a fire
and was rebuilt owned the building that
Salon Accents currently occupies.
“I remember seeing it and looking in
the window and thinking, ‘oh, this might
be good,” Taylor said.
When the salon moved into the storefront, Taylor says, she was fortunate to
bring many of her clientele from her ventures in Springfield with her.
“We had a lot of years of experience,”
she said. “So that’s what I think helped
everyone come here and grow with us.”
In the decade since Salon Accents
opened, the store hired five additional
employees – Joanne Merriam, Nicole
Afonso, Jennifer Rooney, Kelly Booth and
Brittany Hurst.
Salon Accents is a Paul Mitchell Focus
store – meaning it exclusively sells Paul
Mitchell products, which entitles the store
to new products and offers from the company. The salon offers hair, nails, waxing,
hair extensions, color and keratin treatments.
In addition to the regular services, the
salon holds “ReNewvenation” events
throughout the year. Audrey Rose of AgeLess Weigh-Less in North Woburn comes
to the salon to offer Botox, Dysport, and
Dermal
Fillers.
The
next
“ReNewvenation” event will be held
from 5 to 9 p.m. on July 9.
The salon will also hold their third
annual “Spruce Up for Summer” event
June 13 to benefit the Relay for Life of
Ludlow. Costumers can choose any two
services for $25 during the event – including manicure polish changes, pedicure polish changes, paraffin facial and hand treatments, brow and lip waxing, bang trims or
style refreshes and “Colors of Hope” purple hair extensions. All proceeds and tips
during the event will be donated to the
Relay.

LUDLOW – Unlike the high
school baseball regular season,
which takes almost two months to
complete, the American Legion
regular season goes by very quickly.
The Ludlow Post 52 baseball
team is scheduled to play 15 games
in a span of 25 days.
The Post 52 squad entered
Tuesday’s road game against the
Springfield Eagles with a 1-2 overall record.
Their only victory so far this
season was a 6-3 home win versus Greenfield, last Monday
(June 13). They lost, 12-0, at
Pittsfield Post 68 in the season
opener and 12-4 against
Westfield Post 124 at Whitney
Park, last Wednesday.
“We started the Legion season
by facing three very good baseball
teams,” said Ludlow manager Bob
Bohl following the Westfield game.
“Most of these kids are first-year
Legion players and we’re still trying to figure things out.”
The members of this year’s
Ludlow legion baseball team are
Chris Charest, Zach Chipman,
Owen Cocchi, Justin DeBarge,
Gianni Demerski, Tim Denault,
Nick Devine, Ryan Frangie, Tod

we don’t get it straighten out quickly, we’re going to have a very long
season.”

LUDLOW— The Ludlow
Renegades, who are the defending
Full Count League champions,
were trailing, 1-0, against the
Easthampton Bulldawgs entering
the bottom of the sixth inning.
The Renegades managed to
score four runs with two outs in
that frame leading to a 4-1 win in
the first meeting of the season
between the two original members
of the league, at Ludlow High
School, last Saturday.
The come-from-behind victory
was Ludlow’s fourth win in a row
improving their season record to 41.
“This is a big comeback win for
us against a very good
Easthampton baseball team, who’s
always very tough to beat,” said
Ludlow player/manager Nick Frost
“We now have a 4-1 record and
we’re also in first place in the
league standings.”

Tri-County: PeoplesBank perfect out of the gate
By Gregory A. Scibelli
[email protected]
HOLYOKE – In 2016, it continues to be
the same story for PeoplesBank in the TriCounty League. Lots of offense, great starting pitching.
Last Tuesday night, the Bankers were at
home, and needed only six innings to take out
DiFranco Realty 13-1 at Mackenzie Stadium
in Holyoke.
Peoples would take a 7-0 lead after four
innings, and the offense quieted down after
they went through three of DiFranco’s pitchers, but the offense picked back up in the
sixth inning when they put another crooked
number on the board with six runs.
When the sixth run scored on an infield
hit by Joe Ferry, the game was called in favor
of the 12-run mercy rule. It is the third time in
six games this season the Bankers had won a
game by the mercy rule.
One thing that has made Peoples so successful this year is the ability to be focused
throughout any type of game, blowout or not.
“This is a veteran team,” said coach Fred
Perry. “They have been here before and they
stay in every game.”
DiFranco did have a brief lead when they
scored a run in the first inning against new
Peoples pitcher Seth Sypniak. Sypniak is no
stranger to the pitching mound at Mackenzie
Stadium. Sypniak was a varsity starter for
Holyoke High School. He was best known
for giving the Knights a lot of complete game
efforts. He also pitched last year for the South
Hadley American Legion team.
Holyoke native Seth Sypniak pitches for PeoplesBank on
June 14.
Sypniak had a couple of hiccups in the
first two innings, but turned in a fine performance as he went through four innings, not
allowing any runs in the second, third, or
fourth.
He would be lifted in favor of Matt Kirk,
who pitched two scoreless innings, and was
very impressive in the sixth, when he struck
out the side with good velocity, and an effective curveball.
“Kirk joined our team last year,” said
Perry. “He has a lot more confidence this season. He’s a really good kid.”
After Kirk left the game, the offense

went on a tear in the bottom of the sixth
inning.
It started with Ferry reaching on a single
up the middle. Then, in a strange play, leadoff
hitter Tommy Bouvier lifted a sky-high popup right in front of the plate. The ball went
above the lights, and no one could see it. It
would land about 20 up the first base line. It
rolled toward foul territory, but stayed for an
infield hit.
David Clark, last year’s league MVP,
socked a double to deep center to score two
runs and make it 9-1. With two more runners on base, Ted Lerud hit another high

innings against just six hits.
Anthony Romanelli (1-0, Marist) earned
the win after throwing a scoreless seventh
inning that began with controversy. On the
first at bat of the inning, Nighthawks’ Charlie
Concannon took a 1-0 pitch down the first
base line that the field umpire ruled foul.
Upper Valley manager Nick Cenatiempo
protested the call, but to no avail after the
umpires convened for more than a minute,
and confirmed the foul call. Concannon
popped out on the next pitch.
Setup man Tyler Smith (Canisius) ran into
trouble in the eighth when he issued consecutive 2-out walks, but forced Upper Valley’s
Brian Mims to ground out to end the threat.
Tyler Lyne (Merrimack) notched his first
RBI of the summer on a ninth inning single
to give Blue Sox closer Sam Donko some
insurance.
Donko (VCU), the NCAA leader in saves
this year with 20, pitched for the first time
since his college season ended on May 26.
He retired all three batters he faced to earn his
first save for the Blue Sox.
“It felt good to be back in a real game,”
Donko said. “Being out there facing batters
in games that matter is a feeling you can’t
really explain. I was a little concerned with
my location today because I haven’t been out
there, but I figured it out and did what I was
supposed to do.”
Infielders Kipp Moore (Murray State) and
Cam O’Neill (Holy Cross) recorded two hits
each to continue their impressive starts to the
summer. They are now batting .378 and .375,
respectively.
The Blue Sox continue a three-game road
trip Tuesday when they face the Sanford
Mainers at 6:30 p.m. at Goodall Park. Alex
Alex Tuohy delivers a pitch for the Blue Sox.
HOLYOKE – Four Valley Blue Sox (6-3)
pitchers combined for a four-hit 2-0 shutout
Sunday at Maxfield Sports Complex against
the Upper Valley Nighthawks (4-5) to
improve the Blue Sox road record to 5-0.
Erik Ostberg (Hartford) delivered the
game-winner for the second straight night,
slicing an RBI-single that landed on the left
field line to bring home Hezekiah Randolph
(New Orleans) in the eighth inning.
“You just have to come up with a little
luck sometimes in big spots,” Blue Sox manager John Raiola said. “We were able to do
that today. The more you continue to put
guys on base, that’s all it takes. An error, a
broken bat, or a ball on the line leads to runs.
That’s fortunately what we had tonight.”
Starting pitcher Mark Washington
(Lehigh) allowed the four Upper Valley hits
in six innings of work. In two starts this summer, Washington has thrown 13 scoreless

up as a base hit. Ryan Franczek scored on
the play with the catcher not covering the
plate.
Zach Goodwin-Boyd would double a run
in, and Pete Hogan singled in a run before
Ferry’s singled ended it.
With the win and a 7-0 shutout of
Wilbraham Funeral Home, the Bankers are a
perfect 6-0. They were scheduled to face
Teddy Bear Pools on June 16, but face their
first big test of the season when they meet
Easthampton Savings Bank at home on June
17 at 7 p.m. at Mackenzie.
Mutiny
surrender three
unanswered
goals in loss
to Valkyries
REGION – The New England Mutiny
had an opportunity to end their two-game
weekend road trip with another win after
taking a 1-0 lead against the TSF
Academy Valkyries. Unfortunately for
the Mutiny (4-2), the Valkyries (1-2-1)
would score three unanswered goals to
ruin the visitor’s weekend plans and
notch their first win of the season by a 31 score.
“We are on a streak of not playing well,”
said Mutiny owner Joe Ferrara, Jr., whose
team takes on East leaders New Jersey Copa
F.C. (5-1-1) in their next game. “We have
put ourselves in a position with our backs
against the wall and now we face the top
team in our conference. There aren’t any
excuses left and its gut-check time for all of
us.”
New England got on the board in the
23rd minute, as Abby Sotomayor tapped
her pass to Rachel Ugolik 30 yards out
from goal. The Mutiny veteran would fire
her shot past TSF goalkeeper Bjonda
Ademi for the 1-0 lead. Nickolette Driesse
would almost even the score just a minute
later for the hosts, but her shot sailed wide
of goal.
Natalie Melillo would tie the match at 11 for the Valkyries in the 35th minute, as she
chipped her shot over New England keeper
Anne-Marie Ulliac as she ran out to stop her
scoring opportunity. The score would remain
tied as both teams went into halftime. It
wouldn’t take long in the second half for
TSF to take control of the match, as Driesse
would beat Ulliac high on her free kick in
the 48th minute.
The Valkyries would run away with the

Murphy are the only returning starters from
last year’s squad, which qualified for the
playoffs with a 12-4 regular season record.
According to Bohl, all of the Senior
Legion teams in District 2-3 will qualify for
the playoffs because Amherst doesn’t have a
team this year.
“Every team will make the playoffs this
year because Amherst dropped out of the
league,” he said. “We should be a much better baseball team by that point of the season.”
Chipman, who’s a tall left-hander, had a
little bit of trouble finding the strike zone in
his start against Westfield. He allowed a total
of six runs on six base hits and issued five
walks in three innings.
“Zach is a very talented young baseball
player,” Bohl said. “I really think that he’ll
become a very good legion pitcher in the
future.”
Pariseau, who’s a righty, also gave up six
runs on eight hits over the final four frames.
Westfield (2-1), who’s managed by longtime Pathfinder varsity baseball coach Don
Irzyk, held a 10-0 lead entering the bottom
of the sixth inning.
Ludlow scored three runs in that frame
on a line-drive double to right center by
Chipman, a groundout to second base by
DeBarge, and a ground ball single to left
field by Jacob Presnal.
Chipman also drove home Ludlow’s

Harper-Cook (Tennessee) will make his second start as Valley looks to stay unbeaten on
the road.
Ostberg plays the hero on Stars Wars
Night as Sox earn walk-off win
Erik Ostberg (Hartford) walked off in the
12th inning to lead the Valley Blue Sox (5-3)
to an 8-7 comeback win over the
Winnipesaukee Muskrats (3-5) on Star Wars
Night Saturday at MacKenzie Stadium.
With two strikes, Ostberg drove a curveball past the second baseman to bring home
the winning run Brodie Leftridge (Tennessee)
from second, giving the Blue Sox their first
home win of the summer.
“They had been throwing that breaking
ball with two strikes a lot tonight,” Ostberg
said. “So I was kind of sitting breaking ball
there, and lucky enough, I took it up the middle.”
The walk-off single capped a 3 for 6
evening for Ostberg, who is 7 for 13 over his
past three games and batting .385 for the
summer.
“I’m having a great time with these guys,”
Ostberg continued. “I’m feeling great with
my swing. I’m playing with a little chip on
play away from holding onto the lead,” said
Mitchell, who also played baseball at Granby
High School. “I also thought both starting
pitchers pitched very well today.”
Earning the victory in the pitcher’s duel
was right-hander Dimitri Bryant, who made
his first start of the season for Ludlow. He
allowed one run, which was unearned, on
three base hits with eight strikeouts. He also
issued three walks.
“This was the first time that I’ve pitched in
a game in about two months,” Bryant said. “It
feels very good to get the win, but I really
didn’t have very good command on my slider, so I threw mostly fastballs. I’m very glad
that my teammates scored those runs for me
in the sixth inning.”
Bryant, who was a freshman member of
the AIC baseball team this past spring, made
eight relief appearances for the Yellow
Jackets. He allowed a total of eight runs (7
earned) in ten innings.
One of Bryant’s college teammates is
Alex Lafayette, who was the Renegades starting catcher against the Bulldawgs.
Easthampton left-hander Brandon
Marcoux, who lives in South Hadley and
attended Hopkins Academy as a school
choice student, only allowed two base hits in
the first five innings.
The Renegades comeback rally began
when Nick Garde, who’s started in right field,
ripped a single into center field leading off the
bottom of the sixth inning. After the next batter flied out, Garde stole second and he
advanced to third on an infield hit by second
baseman Dan Brunetti (2-for-3).
With two-outs in the inning, Nick Frost,
who was the designated hitter, drove home
Garde with a single tying the score at 1-1.
Then a double to left field by first baseman
Geoff Frost plated the go-ahead run.
Shortstop Jeremy Levertu capped off
Ludlow’s big inning with a two run double
that landed just fair inside the right field
line increasing the lead to 4-1.
Bryant retired the first two batters in the
top of the seventh before Easthampton
shortstop Tim Nieves hit a fly ball to right
field, which was misplayed for a two base
error. The next batter hit a foul pop-up
which was caught by Lafayette for the final
out of the ballgame.
Both teams left several runners in scoring position during the first three innings
before Easthampton took a 1-0 lead in the
top of the fourth inning.
Right fielder Brian Hayes leadoff the
frame by hitting a grounder to the first baseman, which should’ve been the first out, but
he mishandled it for an error. Hayes crossed
the plate with two outs following a double
to left field by Todd Vishaway.
The Bulldawags watched their 1-0 lead
slip away two innings later.
The two teams are scheduled to meet
again on July 8 at Granby High School.
my shoulder a little bit because I think I can
really do some damage in this league, and
that’s pretty much the plan. I’m feeling really
comfortable and happy.”
After the Muskrats scored the go-ahead
run off Shane Ennis (1-0, West Virginia) in
the top of the 12th on a Michael Alescio
suicide squeeze, Leftridge responded with
an RBI double to tie the game for the fifth
time.
The two teams combined for 12 runs in
the first five innings, but relief pitching kept
the game tied until the Muskrats executed the
squeeze. Four Blue Sox relievers combined
for one earned run over the final 7 1-3
innings.
“The relievers came in and did a really
good job,” Blue Sox manager John Raiola
said. “We walked a few too many guys, but
it’s still early, and we’re trying to iron things
out. That was a real good character win.
Really good fight and I saw a lot of really
good things.”
Following three losses at MacKenzie
Stadium to open the season, Valley manufactured its first home lead of the summer off a
first inning Kipp Moore (Murray State) RBIsingle.
The lead was short lived as the Muskrats
used four hits and two walks in the third
inning to build a 4-1 lead.
Chris Starcun (AIC) responded for the
Blue Sox with a bases-clearing triple to even
the score, boosting his season RBI total to
nine.
The fourth inning featured Hezekiah
Randolph (New Orleans) ripping the furthest
hit ball at MacKenzie Stadium this season for
an RBI double off the center-field wall.
Winnipesaukee scored two more in the
fifth to knock starting pitcher Alec Tuohy
(SUNY Buffalo) out of the game, but Jacen
Nalesnik’s (Lehigh) RBI single in the bottom
half evened the score once again.
The Blue Sox had an opportunity to take
the lead in the eighth when pinch runner
Brodie Leftridge (Tennessee) stole second
and third base with no outs, but Muskrats
pitcher Jorge Jimenez retired the next three
batters.
In the tenth, Endy Morales (West Virginia)
worked out of a jam, leaving Winnipesaukee
runners on first and third.
Valley hits the road tomorrow to face the
Upper Valley Nighthawks in the first ever
meeting between the two franchises. Mark
Washington (Lehigh) will make his second
Blue Sox start tomorrow at 5 p.m. at
Maxfield Sports Complex in White River
Junction, Vermont.

“Brangman is a sneaky player, who

head coach Federico Molinari. “He’s working hard in practice and it shows on the
field.”
Western Mass starts a four game home
stand, beginning with AC Connecticut this
Friday, June 24, 7:30 p.m. at Lusitano
Stadium. AC Connecticut is in sixth place
with a 2-3-2 record. The Pioneers beat AC
Connecticut earlier in the season with a 2-1
road win.
“AC Connecticut is a well-coached team
that plays hard for 90 minutes,” said
Molinari. “At the beginning of the year I
would have said I would be happy to be in
first place with five games left in the season.
“Now, I am not happy, I am concerned
about keeping our place. We are gelling as a
team and getting results, and that cannot
stop. Every team wants to beat us and take
our spot. We cannot get comfortable on the
field, we have to press the attack and defend
with all our heart.”
Friday’s game is also Williams

105.5 WEEI Springfield and Budweiser.
There will be prizes and giveaways, along
