Rain doesn’t stop Marlborough’s Labor Day events

Hearing on redevelopmentIntelin Hudson draws public opposition

MARLBOROUGH – A rainy Sept. 5 didn’t stop hearty holiday revelers from celebrat ing Marlborough’s 70th Labor Day Parade, preceded by Marlborough Lions Club’s longtime Bed Race. Marchers, bands and float riders en dured rain while traveling the 1.7-mile parade route. The route also served as a campaign trail for political candidates –though less than in past election years, noted parade director Melanie Whapham. “Maybe it’s because we now have mailin ballots and lots of people have already voted,” she said. “Maybe candidates feel there’s no need to be on the streets the day before the Whaphamprimary.”feels that Navy Reservist Matt Sargent deserved to be recognized as grand marshal for his varied efforts honor Labor Day | 14 sports | 27 net gains volleyballAMSA offirstMarlboroughbeatsinscrimmageseason

Harvest season is in progress in many of the grape growing regions of the Northern Hemisphere and marks the culmination of back-breaking work in the vineyards. Local traditions associated with bringing in the harvest are particularly strong in France. There the vehicle transporting the last grapes to the winery is decorated with flowers and accompanied by much joviality and fanfare. For consumers, the completion of harvesting signals the beginning of production of new batches of wines that will eventually be released for wine enthusiasts to enjoy. Wine festivals that showcase both old and new wines are open to the public (usually for a fee) and are brimming with tasty food options and lively music.

Entertainment for this year’s Greek Festival at the Saints Anargyroi Church on Central Street included the Boston Lykeion Ellinidon Dance Group.

By Maureen Sullivan Senior Reporter

MARLBOROUGH – It was a weekend to yell “Opa,” in dulge in baklava, gyros and lamb shanks, and celebrate all things Greek at the annual fes tival hosted by Saints Anargyroi Church on Central Street. “We love to have our neigh bors here,” said the church pas tor Father Gregory Christakos. “This is our community at its best.”The “neighbors,” whether Greek or Greek “at heart,” staked out their spots in the dinner line just before noontime on Sept. 3, and they soon feasted on classic Greek fare such as kabobs and stuffed grape leaves. Just outside, volunteers grilled batches of lamb and chicken kabobs. One volunteer said that over the course of the three-day fes tival, between 700 and 1,000 pounds of chicken, lamb and pork would be served.

For George Papamitrou, church member and volunteer griller, the festival is well worth all the “It’sprep.getting everyone to gether and have a good time,” he said.Inside, on the other side of the dinner line, homemade baked goods awaited those in the mood for dessert. “The bake sale is second to none,” said church member Maria Argiriadi, who was help ing out at the marketplace of Greek-themed apparel and otherOutside,items. younger visitors could play in a bounce house, have their faces painted and create works in sand art. For Philippos Paschalides, a freshman at Brandeis Univer sity and lifelong member of the church, the festival is a way to highlight Greek culture. “It shows who we are,” he said.In addition to the food and activities, the festival featured Greek music by DJ George Re gan, live music and Greek danc ers on Saturday and Sunday, tours of the church and a raffle. The church offers services inperson and online.

8 Seniors on the move

One of the most important things we can do to improve the lives of our elderly loved ones is finding them an excellent home care aid. To begin, determine whether home healthcare itself is enough to meet the needs of your loved one. Once you have done so and it is time to start interviewing, search for an agency that includes a Patient’s Bill of Rights or similar document that lays out the expectation of care. The agency should be licensed by your state, and ideally, has been around long enough to provide many, many references. Ask about employee back ground checks, and be sure the agency’s range of care will meet your future needs as well. All eldercare services are local and services can vary widely from state to state and region to region. If you are caring for a senior but do not live nearby, make sure you look for re sources in the state or area where your loved one lives.

Mind, Body, Spirit a.m. – 11 a.m. We know it can be confusing to call something acupuncture when it doesn’t involve the insertion of needles, so let us explain! This type of treatment does everything that acupuncture does except that we use more gentle, non-insertive techniques to stimulate the acupuncture points. Using acupressure tools, laser pens, gentle e-stim, magnets and pressseeds, we can just as effectively support the healing of the 10 and under crowd! We can also see kids older than this for non-insertive treatments if they are not ready for the acupuncture experience. When they are ready many of these young people are also excited and eager to try the traditional acupuncture points. We call them ‘taps’ to help take away the stigma of needles. Almost universally they report that it did NOT hurt and they are always VERY proud that they tried something new.

Gary Kelley REALTOR®

I’m an early to bed and rise guy, and I’ll often drop in early before the dinner rush, and inevitably end up talking real estate with someone. Real es tate is something we all share… Once someone has my ear, they’ll often lean in and ask me in a lowered, conspirato rial tone of voice…. “When is the housing market going to crash?” And why wouldn’t they, with all the housing stuff in the news creating FUD…. fear, uncertainty and doubt. Long-term readers know I worked for years at Fidelity Investments, and Fidelity re ally reinforced with their em ployees not to time the market and to take the long view. From that perspective, real estate is a great investment – over time it goes up. That said, I didn’t buy my home as an investment per se. I do things at my house to increase my enjoyment (like painting the inside of my garage (pro tip – use exte rior paint)). A painted garage makes me happy….and does little to increase my home’s value.I’m not seeing a crash (er, major market shift) in the fore seeable future. The rapidly ris ing interest rates on homes did have some touching the brakes for a minute…as does any rapid change (stock market, world turmoil,First-timeetc.).buyers are out in droves because they are tired of living in their parents’ base ment. Housing inventories are up…compared to recent mem ory…and are still below preCovid levels – during Covid not as much building took place. Home inspections are back, and I welcome this knowl edgeable extra set of eyes. We still see multiple offers….just not crazy times. Step one for a buyer is getting financing in place, assuming you are not paying cash. Understanding the financial strength of your mortgage company is impor tant as some smaller players are struggling to make it. Sellers are needing to reset their expectations. A house selling overnight in February 2022 for cash, no inspections, and no contingencies is not a good comparison for this market. Sorry, that ship sailed. You can still get a fair price for your home provided the home is priced accurately…. and at this time listings on the market need to be included in the analysis. That’s where a Realtor® can help….for pricing a home correctly and for input to anWhileoffer.I’m not sensing a major market shift (i.e.: crash) we are in a period of market turbulence. We’ve seen tur bulence before and will again. No need for FUD. This is where working with a solid team with deep resources for your specific situation can make a huge dif ference.Here is free app for your phone/tablet tied directly to the MLS giveyourEstate.”TV830snap.com/Gary-Kelley.https://www.homeGaryisheardonWCRNAMand/orseenonWMCT-discussing“AllThingsRealIfyouneedadviceonsellinghomeorbuyinganewone,usacallat508-733-6005.
