Cederbaum Seeks Fortune By Patrick Coleman
my stuff,” Cederbaum explains. “Unfortunately, I wasn’t picked that day.”
Last month all of Wrentham had a chance to check in with Sam Cederbaum, a former elementary school teacher with the town. Cederbaum, in his first year as principal in Douglas, MA, fulfilled a lifelong dream of appearing on Wheel of Fortune and while he didn’t win the top prize, he took home $9,500. “I have actually been trying to get on the show for years,” Cederbaum says. The popular educator says he would regularly fill out online applications trying to get on the game show. He even attended a “Wheelmobile” last October when it visited the Warwick Mall in Rhode Island to conduct a recruiting session. “I joined a few hundred other Wheel fans for the chance to get on stage and show them
But his perseverance paid off. The Wheel of Fortune staff kept all the applications they gathered in Warwick. That led to a special threehour “invitation only” audition in Newport, RI in early January. There he played a series of simulated games and had to take a written exam. “We were told that if we were selected to be a contestant we would receive a letter in the mail within two weeks,” he says. “Two weeks came and gone with no letter. While I was disappointed, I wasn’t surprised because I knew that the number of contestants chosen each year was minimal compared to the number that actually auditioned.” Pictured: Sam Cederbaum fulfills a lifelong dream to be a contestant on Wheel of Fortune.

The mail must have been running a little slow to the Cederbaum house because two days after the two-week mark an envelope with a Wheel of Fortune return address arrived. “I was ecstatic,” he says. Cederbaum, with approval from work, was able to turn his appearance on Wheel of Fortune into a two week vacation in California for his entire family. They took off to the West Coast for a February 27 taping of the show. His day on the Wheel of Fortune set started early with a shuttle picking him up from his hotel at 7:45 in the morning. Once at the studio, he was briefed on the day’s agenda and received a refresher course on the game’s rules. That day, six shows were filmed and Cederbaum’s was the fifth one

taped. “Walking out onto the soundstage, my first impression was, ‘Wow! I can’t believe I’m really here,’” he said. “It was very surreal. We took turns practicing at the wheel, so we had a feel for it before our actual taping.” During the game, Cederbaum played standing right next to Pat Sajak, theWheel of Fortune’s longtime host. He also noted the studio, the actual wheel and the puzzle board all looked much smaller to him than it does on television. He was impressed that Vanna White, the show’s hostess, made a point to visit all the contestants, provide some advice and wish everyone good luck. “It was awesome to get to meet Vanna,” he said. “I had an amazing time and was able to cross something off my bucket list. It was the chance of a lifetime and I loved every minute of it.” (This article is from The Wrentham Times, www.wrenthamtimes.com)

Delatorre Takes Third As spring turns into summer and the flowers blossom here in Massachusetts, we are starting to see a certain striped insect flying busily around our flowerbeds. That’s right; it is honey bee season. Across the world, honey bees are some of the most important pollinators in the world responsible for pollinating many plants in agriculture. In recent years, however, honey bee numbers have been declining rapidly and scientists struggling to find the cause. The decline is now more commonly known as colony collapse disorder. This did not discourage 11th grade King Philip student Orvill Delatorre from conducting his own research however. With the help of his family and school teacher Mrs. Ann Lambert, Research and Innovation class teacher at King Philip Regional High School, he investigated how smoke and humidity could affect insect behavior and whether it could play a role in the problem that is Colony Col-

lapse Disorder. Delatorre’s hard work and effort in his project happily paid off and he won the 3rd prize in the Massachusetts State Science and Engineering Fair. His promise earned him the Biogen Idec Award as well as the 2014 Prentice Hall Book Award. With the prize money, he plans to do further research into the unsolved mystery of bee disappearance. He will join the scientific quest to solve the puzzle that is colony collapse disorder. His research suggests that water vapor (humidity) and smoke, common factors in our environment today, may affect the way insects communicate through pheromones. Pheromones are, in essence, scents that insects, including honey bees, create in order to communicate different signals. Delatorre’s research shows that water vapor molecules may interfere with this communication system making signals from insect to insect difficult to receive. The research also
found that smoke particles from pollution as well as smoke treatment from beekeepers may stick onto the surfaces and the hairs of insects. Delatorre now plans to continue working in future research using his previous findings and prize money to do it. As research by scientists focuses on this research it is very important to remember how we humans interact with the environment around us. Colony collapse disorder is something that has been seen in recent times and it is important to know what the effect of losing our main pollinators would be. The effects would be severe for many plants would not be able to reproduce were it not for them. Though the cause for CCD has not been found, it is a big area of research that needs funding and public awareness. Research such as the studies done by Delatorre remind us all that we must bee very nice to the environment: including the pollinators such as honey bees.

School Grounds Spruced Up By Patrick Coleman It was a combined effort among Wrentham FOREST, several local companies and Wrentham PTO to beautify the elementary schools and clean up some of the dangerous tree limbs hanging precariously from above.
The work was done on the first Saturday of May and involved the relocation of an evergreen tree, much needed pruning, mulching of garden beds around the Delaney School and removal of invasive plant species that started to call the bus loop home. And it wasn’t just a few hours of community service, it was a long full day of hard, back breaking work. “They started around 7:30 in the morning, and stayed until 4,” says Marj Immomen, Wrentham FOREST volunteer. This wasn’t the first time Wrentham FOREST and PTO partnered to clean up the school campus. Four years, the two groups joined forces do similar work. “That was really a great day,” Immomen says. The success of that effort still in the back of her mind, Im-
momen rallied the groups once more. “I had in my mind doing some kind of big project at the school,” she says. The result was the combination of volunteers with the experience and skill of several professional landscapers and arborists.
Landscape America took on the task of relocating an evergreen from the Wrentham Elementary School campus to the edge of Sweatt Fields, right near the rock commemorating the Longest Baseball Game. The landscape crew did the
entire tree relocation by hand digging to avoid damaging the area with heavy equipment. They also spent part of the pruning crabapple trees in front of Delaney. Additional pruning was done by Green Trees Arborcare and the local company removed several dead tree limbs hanging dangerously above the school’s bus loop. There was also a number of dead trees that were removed from the area. Terra Prima Landscape Service provided assistance with tree work and removal of invasive plant material.
tree limbs. The gardens are in better shape with new mulch and the entrance to Sweatt Fields has a nice tree to welcome guests. Immomen hopes to make some more improvements by turning the volunteer
day into a yearly tradition. “We hope to make this an annual thing,” she says. (This article is from The Wrentham Times, www.wrenthamtimes.com)

Wrentham Family Opens Heart and Home The Meguras, of Wrentham, MA, have become more than just a family of four in the summertime; they become a Fresh Air Fund family. Karen, her husband Michael, and their two children have been inviting Naazir, a 12-year-old of Queens, NY, to their home for the past two years, and they look forward to another summer filled with laughter and outdoor fun. “We’ve had a truly wonderful and rewarding experience hosting a child through The Fresh Air Fund,” Karen Meguras said. “You are offering a child experiences that they might not otherwise have.” The Fresh Air Fund is an independent, not-for-profit agency
host families in rural, suburban and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada.
that has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children
from low-income communities since 1877. Each summer, over 4,000 children visit volunteer
After finding out about The Fresh Air Fund through a co-worker three years ago, the Meguras decided to host a child as a way of giving back to their community. “We wanted to instill in our teen sons the importance of volunteering and doing something for others,” Karen said. The Meguras spend their time with Naazir biking, fishing, swimming and enjoying a number of other outdoor activities. “My family loves nature and the great outdoors,” Karen explained. “We also want to offer Naazir new experi-
ences, so last year we took him to Newport, RI for a sailboat tour of the harbor. He also drove a go-cart, learned archery and played miniature golf. This year we’re looking forward to a trip to Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket.” When asked to recall a particular memory with her Fresh Air son, Karen described the passion Naazir has for swimming. “Last year he and my sons were swimming in the lake behind our house and as I sat in the boat watching all of the fun, I was struck by his laughter and giggling in the water. I think the best thing we can do for him is to give him opportunities to
swim, whether in a lake or the ocean. He loves it.” The Meguras keep in touch with Naazir throughout the year, checking in on holidays and special occasions. He has a close relationship with the Meguras two sixteen-year-old sons, Evan and Matthew, and updates them on events going on in between his visits. When asked what she would say to a prospective host family based on her own experience with The Fresh Air Fund’s Volunteer Host Family Program, Karen said, “Do it. I’ve learned it’s the simple things that we sometimes take for granted which have the most impact, like the sound of insects
chirping on a quiet night, the brightness of the stars in the sky, catching a fish for the first time and building a campfire. Every child deserves these simple pleasures.” The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, not-for-profit agency, is always seeking host families to enable as many New York City children as possible to benefit from a summer experience outside of the city. To learn more about how to become a host family in Wrentham, please contact Susan Danson, the local volunteer leader, at 617-6996585, or visit The Fresh Air Fund online atwww.freshair.org.

Great New Exterior Products For Your Home With spring upon us, it’s time to assess the exterior of your home and plan home improvement and maintenance projects. Whether it’s a fresh coat of paint, a new deck, replacing rotting boards, or even new siding, there are many excellent choices for discriminating home owners. Here’s a look at some of the latest and greatest products to consider for your home.
Siding: While there are still countless wood painted homes in New England, vinyl siding and cement board are growing in popularity. The latest versions of these products are far superior to products that were on the market 10 or 15 years ago. Vinyl siding comes in dozens of styles and colors, with simulated wood grain and even a faux wood shingle look. You have to actually touch some of these products to determine whether they are real wood or not. For many new homes, and for residing existing homes, many builders and contractors are opting for fiber cement board, such as James Hardie. Fiber cement comes in many beautiful colors, and when installed by a qualified contractor, can last many years and require little or no maintenance. Fiber cement also comes in a primed version that can be painted to any custom color you choose and will hold paint extremely well. One caveat – make sure you hire a certified contractor that has been trained to install the product correctly. A poor installation will lead to a job that won’t last as long, and will look terrible after only a couple of years. Not just anybody can install fiber cement, so don’t hire a handy man for this type of project. Decking: When composite decking and vinyl railings hit the market, they were a great idea but were not really ready
for prime time. The first generation of decking would often warp and discolor, and there are many decks around now that are giving composite decking a bad name. Today’s composite decking, however, has evolved into beautiful premium products that simulate various species of decking such as Ipe and Mahogany. The newer products are resistant to fading, warping, and staining and will look great for many years. Coupled with a hidden fastener system, a composite deck can be a stunning upgrade to your home. The new composite railings are also a great choice and are available in many colors and styles and require virtually no maintenance except for perhaps a rinse once or twice a year. If you have an old deck that is structurally sound, it is usually an easy and affordable upgrade to retrofit new composite decking and railings to the existing framing, which is a very popular project this year. Windows and doors have also come a long way. New construction and replacement windows are generally clad with high quality, maintenance free exteriors and come prefinished on the interior, or paintable to match your existing trim color. A window upgrade will also greatly increase the comfort of your home while helping you reduce your carbon foot print and save money on your heating and cooling bills. Doors are also an excellent upgrade to consider. A fiberglass front door is extremely efficient and can be stained to look just like mahogany or various other wood species. Of course, there are still a lot of beautiful wood homes in New England, and they are not going anywhere anytime soon, so we would be remiss if we didn’t discuss paint. Manufacturers have developed ultra-premium exterior coatings

that provide exceptional protection while also adding lasting beauty. Benjamin Moore Aura and Sherwin Williams Duration are two of the better products on the market. If you are considering painting your home, keep in mind that these products are amazing, but they are not a cure all. Many homes with severe peeling problems have structural and/or moisture issues that need to be remedied prior to a quality paint job to ensure the new coatings will work properly. It is not as easy as simply scraping or grinding away the old paint layers. If there are underlying problems causing peeling at your home, it’s important to diagnose them and use building science to solve the problem. On a stable substrate, such as pre-primed clap board with no moisture problem, ultra-premium coatings can last 10 or 15 years between paint jobs, putting them
right on par with fiber cement siding, which also should be coated after roughly that period of time.
It’s a great time to be planning an exterior home improvement project, and with today’s advanced products, you’ll certainly get a great return on your investment over the course of time, since the latest products project to require a lot less maintenance over the course of time, and should look great for many years.

The development of the artist has been fast. His interest and desire to take photographs and make art didn’t really hit Sherman until his sophomore year of high school. “It probably was when I started sophomore year with Mrs. Carneiro,” Sherman says.
King Philip senior Austin Sherman has something in common with well-known artists and writers like Andy Warhol, Truman Capote, Joyce Carol Oates, Sylvia Plath and Stephen King. They all share a Scholastic Art & Writing Award, an organization that has recognized the creativity of teenagers for over 90 years. This year, Sherman joined elite company by winning a national gold medal for his drawing Yin & Yang and will travel to Carnegie Hall in New York City on June 6th to attend a special Austin Sherman pictured with his art teacher Cathleen Caraward ceremony. neiro What did the talented artist do when he learned his drawing won a gold medal? “I freaked out,” Sherman said.

The push out of his comfort zone worked since his piece stood out among the 255,000 submissions. Less than 1 percent of the works submitted receive gold medals. The fact that he won with a drawing is impressive because of the shear number of submissions he competed against and because Austin Sherman’s Yin & Yang earned the KP senior a around KP, prestigious Scholastic Art & Writing Award.

In the fall, Sherman plans to attend Savannah College of Art and Design and study photography, but he plans to continue to develop his other talents. “I want to major in photography,” he says. “I want to do something with illustration, use my painting and drawing skills.”
His teacher is just excited for the senior’s next phase at college saying he is ready for the challenges his professors will put on him. She also commended Sherman’s parents for their support of his passion for photography and art, and she knows his future is bright. “This is his life,” Carniero says. “I can’t wait for him to be in his medium and major in college and to have professors get a hold of him. There is no stopping him.”

LIVING HEALTHY Weight Loss Through NRF Technology Explained: Dr. Johns Technology is a scientific breakthrough that allows the body to communicate its needs without any guessing. Comparisons to the baseline allow for analysis to determine biological preferences, biomarkers out of range, and areas in which the body may be deficient or unbalanced. NRF technology takes a hormonal fingerprint to determine
the exact blueprint a person needs to bring their body into an optimal state of fat-burning or health. NRF technology is so advanced and specific, it can determine hormone imbalances. Once these hormones are balanced and the metabolism is re-set, fat loss becomes easy. Currently, only Dr. Dirk Johns is certified to use this technology in Massachusetts. As more
people become aware of the state of the art technology, they are traveling from greater and greater distances. There is no longer any need to go another day being overweight! NRF technology will determine EXACTLY what your body is missing, and allow you to lose 20-40 pounds or more in 40 days. Call for an appointment today! 508-634-2444

registration will open at 7:30. The officially measured 5K is a fun, scenic route through a beautiful residential section of Norfolk. Runners and walkers can pre-register through May 31st at www.racemenu.com/ events/35181-Taylor-s-Triumph or by mailing in a registration form. Registrations will also be accepted on the day of the race. Last year, more than 550 participants attended the first Taylor’s Triumph and the event was a true reflection of what makes Norfolk a special place to live. First-time 5K runners and walkers, young teens and pre-teens, older adults and experienced runners all joined together to celebrate Taylor and support the Manning family. This year, we anticipate an equally enthusiastic outpouring from the community and hope you will join us for this wonderful event. The Taylor’s Triumph 5K will
include water stations, refreshments and live music! All participants are encouraged to wear Taylor’s favorite color “pink.” Participants will receive a commemorative t-shirt and runners will be “chip-timed.” Entry fees are $30 for pre-registrants and $35 for same day registrations. All proceeds will be used for the construction of the Taylor Manning Memorial, an accessible water park at Camp Jewell, a YMCA camp beloved by the entire Manning family. Taylor was a bright, energetic child who excelled in dance and school. She attended both the Norfolk Elementary Schools and Ursuline Academy where she made many enduring friendships. She had a passion for adventure and loved travelling the country and abroad. She was close to her family and enjoyed spending time with her brother Jack, currently a 7th grader at KP Junior High. Please join the Norfolk community at Taylor’s Triumph to remember Taylor and celebrate her life!

LIVING HEALTHY Diabetes and the Eye By: Roger M. Kaldawy, M.D. Milford Franklin Eye Center The longer a person has diabetes, the higher their chances of developing diabetic retinopathy. This disease of the retina can occur with all types of
diabetes. This is now a leading cause of blindness in American adults and the most common diabetic eye disease, affecting an estimated 4.1 million adults over the age of 40 in the United States. If left untreated, diabetic retinopathy can lead to blindness.

Diabetic retinopathy occurs when prolonged periods of high blood sugar levels cause damage to the small blood vessels in the retina at the back of the eye. The retina is the film at the back of the eye, which receives light images and sends them to the brain. A healthy retina is essential for good vision. These blood vessels initially become leaky when damaged by high sugar in the blood, and then may become blocked off. The leaky vessels can lead to spots of bleeding on the retina. In addition, fluid and exudates (fats) escape from the leaky blood vessels on to the retina. This may also cause swelling, known as edema of the retina. The blocked vessels can starve the retina of oxygen, leading to the growth of new abnormal vessels from the retina, and damage to the retina due to lack of oxygen (ischemia).Good control of diabetes by controlling the blood sugar level helps to reduce the chances of developing retinopathy. Risk factors for diabetic retinopathy include poor blood sugar control, protein in your urine, high blood pressure, the longer you’ve had diabetes and high cholesterol and triglycerides. There are three main types of diabetic retinopathy: nonproliferative, proliferative and maculopathy. These are not

different diseases, but they are different stages of the same condition. This means the type you have may change as the disease progresses. It’s also possible to have more than one type at once. In non-proliferative retinopathy (also called background retinopathy), small areas of swelling in the blood vessel walls form blebs (microaneurysms) on the retina. Other tiny yellow patches of hard exudates (fats from the blood) and other areas of bleeding (hemorrhage) appear as dots and blots. This type of retinopathy is not sight-threatening, but needs to be monitored by your ophthalmologist. Proliferative retinopathy is the most dangerous type of diabetic retinopathy. It causes no symptoms until it is very advanced. In proliferative retinopathy, some of the tiny blood vessels in the retina become blocked. In response to this lack of blood in the retina, new abnormal blood vessels grow. Although these new vessels are trying to help by bringing in more oxygen, they are fragile and may bleed into the eye (vitreous hemorrhage), stimulate the formation of scar tissues that can cause the retina to peel away from the back of the eye (detachment) and cause a reduction in vision. If these new, abnormal blood vessels were left untreated,

they could eventually lead to blindness. Furthermore, these abnormal blood vessels increase the likelihood of a type of glaucoma that is very difficult to treat. The area of the retina we use most is called the macula. It provides our central vision and is essential for clear, detailed vision. In maculopathy, the hemorrhages, exudates and swellings occur in the macula. This may interfere with vision, particularly for reading and seeing fine details. The diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy is made by examining the back of the eye (retina), using special instruments. Diabetic retinopathy will not affect vision until it is at an advanced stage. This means it’s usually detected by routine checks, making regular eye examinations a must for people with diabetes. It is crucial for all people with diabetes to be screened for diabetic retinopathy on an annual basis. Diabetic retinopathy is not entirely preventable, but it’s clear that long-term good control of diabetes helps to reduce your risk. If you smoke, stop smoking. Check and control your cholesterol and blood pressure. Do not miss screening eye appointments. Diabetic retinopathy treatment can vary from observation, to laser treatment to more recent high tech interventions (intravitreal anti VEGF injections) designed to stop the growth of new abnormal blood vessels. In rare cases eye surgery is necessary. Our center and ophthalmologists have state of the art equipment to diagnose and treat many eye problems, including diabetic retinopathy. We are proud to have a dedicated retina specialist in our practice, specializing in the treatment of diabetic eye disease. With the addition of the new specialist, we continue to bring to our practice world class eye care closer to home. For more details, see our ad on the front page.

LIVING HEALTHY Day of Yoga By Patrick Coleman This Spring, the Gillette Stadium Field House changed from an indoor football practice field to a giant yoga studio, home to hundreds of yogis hoping to help Boston Children’s Hospital and Citizen Schools. The gathering was for Yoga Reaches Out and among the participants were several from Wrentham including yoga instructor Julie Elpus. Elpus is a 200-hour registered yoga teacher. She teaches from her Wrentham home studio, Inner Bliss Yoga, at Tranquil Souls Yoga in Franklin and at USMMA in Bellingham. She also teaches when needed at other local studios. For Elpus, combining her passion for yoga with a desire to help people was a win win. Each participant pledged to raise $250 and shared their collective interest in yoga at the Patriots indoor practice facility. “I love this event because it brings together a group of almost 1,000 people, under the roof at Gillette Field House, who share a common bond of yoga, and who want to
participate in seva, the sanskrit word for selfless service,” she said before the day of yoga. “It is a day of inspiration, personal stories, wonderful teachers, great vendors, giveaways and amazing live music.” The past two years Elpus was a participant on other people’s teams, but this year she decided to form her own. “My goal was to recruit a team of 10. I am really blessed to have amazing, dedicated and inspiring students who I thought would be excited to experience the day as well. And, lo and behold, I recruited 10,” she says. The Wrentham residents on the team included Tara Brengel, Heather Cunningham, Michelle Gray, Anne King, Pauline Lotito, Laurie Sutherland, and Judy Wilk. The other three members included Wrentham native and current Providence resident Nicole Dreyer, Kristen Nanos of Franklin, and Renee Bellinger,of Milton. “Most of these gals practice yoga with me, and the rest have just seen my outreach on Facebook and decided to join in,” Elpus says. Collectively the team raised $3,500.
The event is very special for Elpus, and she says the day leaves her with a strong sense of community. “The best memories I have from over the past two years are thinking about pausing during my yoga practice, to just look around the room, at all the brightly colored yoga mats, the sound of collective breathing amongst the participants, who are all ages and backgrounds, and just feeling such overwhelming love, peace and connectedness,” she says. “It has been a place for me to have mini reunions with fellow yogis who I trained with, and also a place to make new connections as well. I am excited to shared this experience with Team Inner Bliss this year.”

Murray Conquers Adversity, Shines For KP Baseball Team By Ken Hamwey Staff Sports Writer Michael Murray is a senior at King Philip Regional whose athletic history deals with facing lots of adversity and overcoming huge roadblocks by staying positive. His story is a study in perseverance. He’s also got a nice profile — it’s a profile of courage. When he could have surrendered to setbacks, he relied on determination. Instead of asking why he had to battle three serious injuries and a bout with cancer, he stood tall during his rehab stints and never went negative. Murray has a strong will and he’s someone who can teach all of us some rewarding lessons about real-life situations. During his career at KP, the 5-foot-10, 185-pounder has been limited to a meager 2½ quarters of varsity football, one full season of indoor track and less than two full years of varsity baseball. His injuries, starting as a freshman, include a fractured collarbone, a torn ACL in his right knee as a
junior, and a severely sprained MCL in the same knee as a senior. He was diagnosed in February of his freshman year with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a form of bone cancer. He underwent seven months of chemotherapy, surgery followed and now he’s cancer-free since.

the Warriors to qualify for tourney play.
Murray, an honor student with a GPA of 3.6, insists he’s rallied back to compete because of the support he’s received from KP students and also his teammates in football and baseball.
“When I played my sophomore year, we were 8-12,’’ Murray recalled. “Last year, even though I sat out, I was at most of the games since I was a captain. We didn’t fare well, going 1-19. But, this season has been better but unfortunately we won’t be in the playoffs. I’m pleased I stayed healthy this season and was able to contribute. It’s a good way to finish my KP career but I really would have liked to qualify for the tourney. That was my top priority.’’
“When I was dealing with cancer, the football team was so gracious,’’ he said. “I also cherish the support I got from the baseball guys and the entire student body. Everyone really reached out to me.’’

KP had a 7-11 record with two games left as the deadline approached for Local Town Pages. If the Warriors win their final two games, they’d fall one game short of qualifying. In his role as captain, Murray is quick to offer help if a younger player requests it and he’s quick to lead by example. Relying on an athletic philosophy of “doing my best to get us in a position to win,’’ Murray lists his role models as his parents (Lorraine and John) and the KP community “for their support and encouragement.’’ Michael Murray’s story is remarkable. He’s displayed courage and tenacity and he’s also relied on faith. He could easily be called “the comeback kid.’’ But Michael Murray is more. Much more.

Primavera, Serves Up Help By Christopher Tremblay
“After eight straight years of my daughters (Stephanie and Kendra) going through the system here I began thinking about coaching,” Primavera said. “I knew that I would be retiring from the FDIC soon and wanted to find something that was fun, interesting and challenging. That’s when I approached Bob.”
When King Philip High School’s longtime girls tennis coach Bob Goldberg notched the 600th win of his illustrious career for the first time in his 42 years coaching he had something that he has never had before – an assistant coach. Gary Primavera has volunteered his services to give the KP legend a hand this spring. “When it comes to tennis, schools usually don’t have enough money for both a coach Gary Primavera volunteers for KP Tennis. and an assistant,” Goldberg said. “Gary came to me and volunteered his knew who I was,” Primavera services.” said. “I knew a few of the girls, Primavera actually approached but nothing of their personality Goldberg a year earlier; unfortu- until this year.” nately King Philip had a policy that would not permit an adult from coaching their own child. Last season Primavera’s daughter Kendra was a senior on the squad so he would have to wait a year, but that was ok for the now assistant tennis coach.
“I was ok with not coaching right away. Last year I started showing up more frequently at games and practices, so the girls
Having grown up playing tennis for Gaithersburg High School in Maryland, Primavera got involved in coaching when his two daughters decided to pick up tennis rackets for the first time. In 1989 Primavera moved to Massachusetts and not knowing anyone in the area he stopped playing tennis for about 15 years, but the coaching bug was still in him.
Although Goldberg has shown that he is fully capable of coaching a girl’s tennis team, he was more than happy to have Primavera give him a hand this spring. “He gives me another set of eyes. In tennis you can have up to five matches going on at the same time. This allows me to split everything up in terms of watching the girls and coaching them,” Goldberg said. “Besides Gary can coach as well as I can and that’s a plus to the program.” When Goldberg was asked about Primavera being his successor, the longtime coach didn’t know if he’d want it. “He just retired, so I’m not even sure if he’d want to. I do know he can coach,” Goldberg

said. “Besides I don’t even know when I’m retiring, I take it one year at a time and don’t even think about it until midDecember.”
Although coaching is something Primavera would like to do down the road, right now he’d much rather be an assistant.
Primavera was unsure of what he would do if Goldberg did decide to finally hang up his racket.
“I’d rather be an unpaid assistant to Bob than a paid coach without him,” Primavera said. “We get along great together and if he’s still happy coaching, then I’m happy volunteering.”
“The camaraderie on this team is unlike anything that I’ve ever seen and they love Bob,” Primavera said. “If I was asked to take over the program – I would probably want to, but you never know. This is my very first day of retirement; you never know what’s going to happen.”
Although there’s nothing written in stone and he would have to apply for the position if and when Goldberg decided to leave coaching, King Philip would be wise to go with a successor who studied under the legend.

Be Prepared for the Changing “Seasons” of Your Life challenges, including the following:
By Mike Kerrigan A few days ago, we observed May Day, a celebration of spring. And, after a long and hard winter in many parts of the country, most of us are ready for sunshine, warmer temperatures and the hopefulness that spring always symbolizes. But as winter gives way to spring, we are also reminded that our lives have “seasons,” too — and it pays to be prepared for all of them. So, as you move into the “retirement season,” you’ll need to prepare for several possible
Outliving your resources — The idea of outliving one’s financial resources is certainly not one we want to face. In fact, in a poll of people ages 44 to 75 sponsored by Allianz Life Insurance, 61% said they fear depleting their assets more than they fear dying. The best way you can overcome anxiety about running out of money is to invest and plan. Contribute as much as you can afford to your IRA and 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan — and when your salary goes up over time, increase your contributions. As for the “plan” part, try to envision the type of lifestyle you want during retirement, and then estimate how much this lifestyle will cost. Once you reach retirement, you will also need to do
some planning — specifically, you will need to calculate how much money you can afford to withdraw from your investments each year. Becoming disabled — Onethird of all people between the ages of 30 and 64 will become disabled at some point, according to the Health Insurance Association of America. If you became disabled, even temporarily, the loss of income could prove devastating to your financial security, and that of your family’s. To avoid this worrisome scenario, you may want to consider disability insurance. If your employer offers this coverage as an employee benefit, take it — but don’t assume it will be sufficient. Many times, an employer-sponsored disability policy will only cover a shortterm disability and may have a long waiting period for benefits to kick in. Consequently you
may need to purchase your own disability insurance policy to supplement your employer’s coverage. Requiring long-term care — Unfortunately, many people eventually require some type of long-term care, whether that involves a stay in a nursing home or the assistance of a home health care aid. This type of care is expensive, and Medicare only covers part of it. Just how costly is long-term care? The national average for home health aide services is nearly $45,000 per year, and a private room in a nursing home is nearly $84,000 per year, according to a recent survey by Genworth, a financial security company. To meet long-term care costs, you could self-insure, but that might be prohibitively expensive. But failing to do anything about meeting long-term care costs could result in the need for your
grown children or other family members to get involved in some fashion — and that is something you no doubt wish to avoid. Fortunately, you can find solutions. To learn about appropriate protection vehicles, consult with your financial advisor. With some thoughtful planning, constant vigilance and timely action, you can meet all these challenges — and enjoy all the seasons of life in which you find yourself.

The King Philip Parents’ Network would like to acknowledge and thank the many community groups, businesses, and individuals that have generously contributed to our organization. We would also like to thank the KP Administration for its unwavering support. Because of that support, we have accomplished an incredible amount this year, all while organizing and hosting our traditional events and activi-
ties: the Father/Daughter Dance, Staff Appreciation Week, and the All Night Party.
This past year we have purchased and installed the new message board near the tennis court entrance, as well as additional picnic tables outside the cafeteria. We are proud to have funded and distributed teacher mini-grants so educators can implement special projects to enhance the classroom experience for KP students. Recently, we increased the dollar amount of the scholarships we give to graduating seniors, and spearheaded an Academic Wall of Fame to acknowledge the top students. Finally, we were pleased to financially support KP Principal Dr. Lisa Oliveira in her Dancing with the Wrentham Stars effort for the King Philip Warrior Turf Complex.
We are grateful for the KP families that joined the KPPN and volunteered their time and talents this year. Their membership dues, as well as several successful fundraisers, have enabled our activities to continue and helped implement additional projects. Thanks to the efforts of our treasurer and Covidien employee Eileen Green, we were also awarded a grant as part of Covidien Grants Volunteer Incentive Program (VIP).

Filing a past due return may not be as difficult as you think. your taxes. Payments can be made by credit card, electronic funds transfer, check, money order, cashier’s check, or cash.
Payment Options - For Those Who Can’t Pay in Full
By Jeffrey Schweitzer Taxpayers should file all tax returns that are due, regardless of whether full payment can be made with the return. Depending on an individual’s circumstances, a taxpayer filing late may qualify for a payment plan. It is important, however, to know that full payment of taxes upfront saves you money.
Here’s What to Do When Your Return Is Late Gather Past Due Return Information Gather return information and come see us. You should bring any and all information related to income and deductions for the tax years for which a return is required to be filed.
Payment Options - Ways to Make a Payment There are several different ways to make a payment on
Taxpayers unable to pay all taxes due on the bill are encouraged to pay as much as possible. By paying as much as possible now, the amount of interest and penalties owed will be lessened. Based on the circumstances, a taxpayer could qualify for an extension of time to pay, an installment agreement, a temporary delay, or an offer in compromise. Taxpayers who need more time to pay can set up either a short-term payment extension or a monthly payment plan. A short-term extension gives a taxpayer up to 120 days to pay. No fee is charged, but the latepayment penalty plus interest will apply. A monthly payment plan or installment agreement gives a taxpayer more time to pay. However, penalties and interest will continue to be charged on the unpaid portion of the debt throughout the duration of the installment agreement/payment plan. In terms of how to pay your tax bill, it is important to review all your options; the interest rate on a loan or credit
card may be lower than the combination of penalties and interest imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. You should pay as much as possible before entering into an installment agreement.

It’s a Sign of MARKETPLACE the Times...
BUILDER/CONTRACTOR
The town of Franklin continues to experience a seller’s market. Listings are in great demand, and we presently have 3.8 months of resale listings on the market in our town. When the number of listings are fewer than 5 or 6 months, it’s indicative of a seller’s market.
DON’T SIGN ANYTHING... UNTIL YOU SEE US. IT COULD SAVE YOU

POSSIBLY THOUSANDS.

Every real estate agent competes to the best of his/her ability to secure a new listing, and the most prevalent factor determining the direction of each listing is the “quality of marketing” that will be provided. Online and offline marketing methods are necessary today in order to provide the homeowner with the exposure that each seller deserves to receive. The latest and greatest of current marketing methods is accomplished with equipment known as the “drone.” Drones are new to the real estate community but certainly not to the military. The Kuney-Todaro Team members are providing video and high definition photos for slide shows of each listing from a height well above the tree tops on house lots. This enables buyers to view everything that surrounds each listing. It provides a panoramic view of an entire property displaying not only the home but all exterior improvements such as pool areas, tennis and basket-
ball courts. It reflects all of the surrounding wooded areas and the entire neighborhood from above. Both buyers and sellers appreciate this type of exposure, and in the near future, this will be standard practice for all real estate agents. This is just another sign of the times, and the burden is on the potential listing agent to provide the best method of exposure for each and every homeowner.

home MARKETPLACE Home Improvement Projects Recouping More at Resale In its annual Cost vs. Value Report that compares the cost for 35 popular remodeling projects with the value those projects retain at resale, Remodeling magazine found that the overall average costvalue ratio has improved for the first time in six years. Costrecouped percentages increased for all 35 projects examined for the 2013 survey, a remarkable turnaround from just a year earlier, when only three of the 35 projects saw an increase in cost-recouped percentage. Replacement projects proved especially beneficial for homeowners, who likely also benefitted from a real estate market that finally started to stabilize after an extended period of economic uncertainty that heavily influenced both buyers and sellers.
While an economy on the rebound no doubt benefitted homeowners looking to recoup as much of their home improvement investment at resale as possible, other factors likely contributed as well. For example, homeowners surveyed for the 2013 report who added a backup power generator recouped more of their investment than in previous years. That’s likely because heavily publicized storms, such as Superstorm Sandy in late 2012, have forced homeowners and prospective homeowners to place a greater emphasis on being prepared for such storms.
such a project recouped 79.3 percent of the project’s cost, placing it just ahead of a garage door replacement, which recouped an average of 75.2 percent of its cost.
After years of many home improvement projects recouping little of their initial costs at resale, the tide finally seems to be turning for homeowners. More information about the
2013 Cost vs. Value Report is available at www.remodeling. hw.net.
