kept the game close only allowing Fenway to score 12 points of their own. “The defense was definitely doing their job,” the coach said. “Offensively, inside or outside, we were getting good looks; we just couldn’t put the ball in the hoop. Fenway was a very talented group.”

Earth Friendly Initiatives in Medway and Millis By J.D. O’Gara

Earth Day is April 22, a good time to take a look at what’s happening with green initiatives in the towns of Medway and Millis. Holding the shared position of Energy Manager for both Medway and Millis thanks to a grant funded in part from Green Communities, a division of the Department of Energy Resources, Robert Weiss gives an update on just what’s going on to make Medway and Millis more green this year. “We have a number of projects in both Medway and Millis,” says Weiss, who has worked as a city planner in Newton and for Mass. Fair Share. He says that the two small communities compared to some in larger cities, “do live closer to the land out here,” and thus, tend to understand more of where their water comes from. That said, in Medway, says Weiss, “We are working on the Memorial Elementary School, installing an energy management system there, also known as a building automated system. This is going to reduce a lot of the usage in the building by controlling the heating and ventilation in

the building automatically. Room thermostats will be connected to computer system, so they’ll be able to balance source of heat and electric with the use of the building.” Memorial Elementary is the final school in Medway to have this type of system installed, and Trane Commercial will complete the work this summer. “The best part is, most of it is being paid for by the state, coming from the Green Communities grant,” says Weiss. That same grant is also paying for the replacement of 193 streetlights to LED lights in Medway. The town of Medway, says Weiss, is also looking at ways to further reduce its energy usage, in buildings and facilities, and increase the use of renewable resources. In Millis, says Weiss, the primary focus right now is getting the Green Community designation. 136 communities in the Commonwealth have this designation. Weiss outlines following five things Millis needs to do to be considered for the Green Community designation.

1. Solar siting bylaw: The Millis planning board is in the process of creating a solar siting by-law for large scale solar 250 kW or larger. 2. Expedition of the permitting process for solar: this makes sure the permitting for such a facility happens in 180 days. 3. More efficient vehicles for the town: Instead of reusing an old inefficient vehicles, town policy would need to be to get more efficient vehicle, says Weiss, not for every vehicle in town, but for a lot of town-owned vehicles used on everyday basis by employees. 4. Create an energy reduction plan: the town would reduce its energy by 20% in 5 years. Town and school buildings would get an energy audit, says Weiss, and Millis will figure out the best ways of reducing the use. “Because we’re a municipality, we can go through Eversource and Columbia Gas to do those audits – they’ve already gone through the process

of choosing contractors and consultants who understand energy use and demand energy reduction efforts – then when we get around to installing energy improvements, a lot of them will have rebates that come back to the town if the installation is energy efficient,” says Weiss. 5. The town will adopt what’s called a stretch code, which would require builders to achieve greater energy efficiency—new buildings would have to use 60% of the energy a similar house

would have used in 2006. Currently, says Weiss, the town is using a stretch code adopted by the state, but the one being considered for the town would give builders a bit more latitude in how they achieve the 60%. Like Medway, Millis is also replacing current streetlight fixtures with LED fixtures. “That will be a significant reduction of energy use for the town,” says Weiss. “The new lights use about a third of the energy that the old sodium vapor lights use.”

In order to get the chance to capture back-to-back titles against Fenway (the North’s #2 seed) the Mohawks had to first get past Quaboag, the West’s top seed. Leading by 15 at the half, Millis saw Quaboag go on a run in the third quarter to cut the score to 7, but before all was said and done in the quarter the Mohawks went on a run on their own to push the score back to 15 going into the final stanza. Assad was Millis’s leading scorer once again with 16, while Katy Golden added 13 in the victory. When Millis held the State Trophy for the first time last winter, they did so entering the Division 4 Central Tournament as the 15 seed with a 10-10 record. Once in the tournament, they went on an

impressive run defeating their opponents by an average of 17 points and upped that to 19 point average in the their two state tournament wins. This season, the Mohawks got into the tournament with a 14-6 record as the number 6 seed and increased their average win by 31.5 points in the Divisional Tournament and 9 in the State Tournament. In order to accomplish the historical event, Coach Fallon and his Mohawk team focused on playing Millis basketball. During the 14 win season playing in the TriValley League, Millis defeated the

likes of Hopkinton and splitting with Bellingham (whom won the Division 3 Central Title). “It’s a challenge to play well in the TVL against Division 2 and 3 teams, but the girls have been here before and came in very confident this year,” Fallon said. “Once in the tournament, you still have to play well, and for us, that begins with defense. Not having the size or the numbers, we have to be able to play defense or we have not shot of winning.” One of the keys to the pressure of the Mohawks defense is having Golden at the top of all Millis

presses. According to the coach, Golden is an athletic individual that disrupts the opposition. Offensively, during the regular season Millis was led by Assad (17 points per game) and Golden (13). Alyssa Fallon and Donehey were two more seniors that came off the bench to supply the Mohawks with the same spark as the starters would provide; allowing the coach to breathe easy. “The fact that I can bring athletes like Alyssa and Olivia off the bench that will give me the same type of play that my starters give is a great asset,” Fallon said.

April 1, 2015 Possessing a senior laden team this fall will leave Millis with a lot of holes to fill come next winter if the squad wants to make it three in a row and cement their legacy in the Millis record books. Fallon will return only two starters next season from this year’s Championship team. Coming back will be point guard Erica Mullally and TVL All-Star Golden and both will be relied on heavily on their leadership skills and experience. The Mohawks will also have other athletes coming back who are going to have to step up and fill a role if Millis is to three-peat.

Millis Woodworking Club Starts Fundraiser, Seeks Space The club has interest, and it has found some support, equipment and donations, but what the Millis Woodworking Club could really use is a space. On March 9, Paul Sims, advisor to the club, created a crowd funding page at http:// www.gofundme.com/oby6c4. He writes: “I am the head faculty advisor the the MHS Woodworking Club. Both myself and my co-advisor

volunteer our time to teach and instruct students ages 14 and up, in an after school program at Millis High School on how to safely use hand and power tools to create useful or decorative products from wood. While we have received support from the local and surrounding communities for

our day to day operations (Using Fundingfactory), we do not have the necessary funding to build a work shop for our students. We currently operate out of a science lab and the shared space is getting tight. We have even been offered a radial arm saw and a Delta brand table saw but again currently lack

the space or proper storage for such tools. Our students abilities and workshop space would also be utilized by the school’s drama club and dance team for set building and storage. I would appreciate any helpful suggestions on how to raise the funds any other way. Any sponsorships for the MHS Woodworking Club should have

the word sponsorship written on the check and not the work donation. Funds may be send to: MHS Woodworking Club Millis High School 245 Plain St. Millis MA 02054 Thank you.”

Come and Be a Part of the Cleanup! Volunteer Groups Sought for Annual Earth Day Charles River Cleanup By J.D. O’Gara The 16th Annual Earth Day Charles River Cleanup is scheduled to take place on Saturday, April 25, on various sites along the Charles River, including in your own neighborhood. Families, groups, and even eco-minded individuals are encouraged to join Charles River Watershed Association (CRWA) and partner organizations that join together to beautify the banks of the Charles River from Bellingham to Boston. CRWA’s Director of Communication and Advancement, Amy Rothe explains that eight different regions of the Charles mobilize for the effort, and a different coordinator manages each. Locally, our region is known as the Upper Watershed, managed by coordinator Bryan Dore. The Upper Watershed region, which encompasses Holliston, Medway, Millis, Norfolk, Franklin, Bellingham and Milford, is in need of volunteers The annual cleanup is part of American Rivers’ National River

Cleanup ®, which, thanks to its volunteers, has removed over 4 million of trash from America’s waterways. That includes 27 tons that about 3,000 volunteers pulled from the Charles River just last year, from small items such as cigarette butts to larger items such as tires and discarded appliances, says Rothe. “The trash that the volunteers pick up is removed from the waterways, where it could do ecological damage,” says Rothe. “A lot of times, when it rains, any garbage in the street will wash into the waterways, even if you think it can’t. We try to build awareness of what you put on the ground. Given the winter we’ve had, (the cleanup) will have a pretty big impact.” Rothe says volunteer engagement is another goal of the annual cleanup. “Our goal is to create a sense of stewardship that lasts beyond a single day event,” says Rothe. The cleanup, she says, connects the CRWA to volunteers, and several picnics are planned on those days near various cleanup locations.

At noon on that day, for example, Upper Watershed volunteers are welcomed to a picnic to take place outside Whole Foods, in Bellingham. “We still have a lot of open sites available. It’s not too late to sign up,” says Alexandra Ash, event coordinator for the Charles River Cleanup.

Groups, she says, can register at http://www.crwa.org/charles-rivercleanup. Someone will be designated as the head of each volunteer group, and the CRWA will provide them with cleanup supplies, including gloves and trashbags, and, while supplies last, official 2015 Charles River Cleanup t-shirts. “We do have sites available for individuals and families,” says Ash. “We have sites according to what

town they want to be in and whether they have children. Team leaders coordinate with Bryan to pick up supplies, and usually (volunteers) come and meet on the day of the event. We coordinate the trash pickup, as long as the bags are sort of left near the road in piles. It’s a great opportunity for scout groups, church groups and families,” she says.

Weight Loss Client Reveals Success on the Radio Milford resident Paul Braza recently discussed his triumphant experience with New England Fat Loss on the air with WMRC radio personality Ray Auger who has also shed extra pounds with the weight loss program. In this excerpt, both men praise New England Fat Loss and its staff while discussing their excitement with their new healthy body compositions.

Auger: It’s a tough time to maintain during the holidays. How did you do it? Braza: Willpower. Results speak for themselves. I lost 45 pounds, feel great, and have a ton of energy.

tion. So you know, drop 45 pounds, diabetes levels are down below where you need meds, everything else, cholesterol, all goes away as you take care of yourself and eat the right foods.

Auger: That first day was pretty amazing.

Auger: That list is different for everybody. Braza: Absolutely, it is.

Auger: When did you do the program? Braza: I started the end of August, pretty much up to Thanksgiving.

Auger: What made you want to do it in the first place? Braza: Diabetic levels were almost at insulin and getting way too big. XXL was fitting too tight [and I was] heading in the wrong direc-

Braza: Yeah, four or five pounds I think.

Small Engine Repair lawn equipment/snowblowers tuneups • repairs • blade sharpening Paul Whitty “fix it for less, good as new” pickup/dropoff service removal of unwanted equipment

Auger: They measure your body when you start and they tell you this is what you need to fix. Like apples could be great for me and not so great for you. Braza: Yes, that was probably the most interesting part because the foods that we used throughout the diet were not my best foods after the diet, because you go on the maintenance plan. I’m still three sizes down in pants, two sizes down in shirts. [I] still feel great and you can’t even believe the compliments from people and stuff like that. Auger: It boosts the spirit just going out in public and hearing this. Would you do it again?

508-404-3184 508-376-6242

Braza: Absolutely! If I need to drop another 35 pounds, I would probably hop right on the program one more time and bring myself down to that fighting weight. Auger: Talk about the staff a little bit at New England Fat Loss. Were they helpful through the whole program? Braza: Very helpful. Dr. Johns, you text him every day, he gets right back to you. Auger: That’s what’s really cool. He wants you to text him every day. Braza: With me, I had to send him my blood sugar level and my weight and he just kept on you. It works. Auger: If you had a rough day too, he gives you words of encouragement. Braza: And if you were at a plateau....he would tell you how to get off that plateau. And you would do what he said and boom, the next day you would see results.

Auger: Any last words you want to send to everybody Braza: For anybody who has any health issues out there, diabetes being one of the biggest ones..... and you’re body is carrying a lot of weight, I would say, go see Dr. Johns and let him do your analysis. Auger: We should stress that this isn’t just for weight loss, it’s a change in your health as well. Not just weight wise but cholesterol, diabetes; like my allergies went away when I first started the program. Braza: I was on blood pressure meds, all gone.

Auger: That’s great. Congratulations. Your personal passage to weight loss can start today!

Millis Resident Creates Public Forum Millis Public Forum Aims to Generate Community By J.D. O’Gara Kaplan Hasanoglu wants people in his town to talk. Millis resident, along with his wife, Sarah, since 2011, the Wisconsin native, who teaches at Dean and Emmanuel Colleges, has created the Millis Public Forum. “My primary motivation was, I was aware what was going on at the national level, and I got really frustrated at national politics and they way things are run. I had a choice between learning more and more and sitting there and shaking my fist at the TV or trying to do something about it. I also felt that there’s a difference between things at the national level and things at the local level, especially at the local style town government. Hasanoglu believes at the local level, “a lot of the problems and rhetoric associated with national politics begins to lose sig-

nificance.” For example, he says, both conservatives and liberals are pro-local business. “Helping local businesses puts money back into the community,” he says, “and saving tax dollars on energy improvements would, also. Doing things that promote a green community also lowers tax dollars. A lot of things that happen at the local level are win-win.” What’s also a win-win is the face-to-face interaction such events such as town meetings provide. Voters who show up, he says, can’t be apathetic. Building a sense of community, says Hasanoglu, is a way to counteract cynicism. “It’s much easier to say I don’t care about you if I’m sitting at my computer, but it’s harder when we’re meeting each other as citizens.” And that’s what he hopes to do.

Hasanoglu hopes to enhance the town process of government by facilitating discussion among residents, not just online at the website www.millispublicforum. org/, put together by resident Loring Edmunds, but also, and more importantly, he says, face-to-face. One of the things that might be nice is to have more discussion of the issues before an election,” he says. “Let’s get all the warrant articles out, and let’s have forums where people discuss them beforehand, so people know ahead of time and can make decisions ahead of time. Why not have it where we are in control of that process. What we need to do is create institutions that allow people to meet each other as citizens, rather than as competition with each other in the private sphere,” he says.

Millis residents are encouraged to join in the discussion at monthly meetings. The first, held in January, saw eight people, the next, in February, 12, and at the time of this writing, another was scheduled for March 25. This

month, the Millis Public Forum will take place on Wednesday, April 22, in room 130 of the Veteran’s Memorial Building. You can also stay apprised of Millis Public Forum meetings on Facebook and Twitter.

LIVING HEALTHY Doctor, I Have a Stye By Roger M. Kaldawy, M.D., Milford Franklin Eye Center

feel better once it ruptures and the pus drains.

A stye is a small bump that sometimes appears on the outside or inside of the eyelid. A stye is also referred to as a hordeolum. A stye develops from an eyelash follicle or an eyelid oil gland that becomes clogged from excess oil, debris or bacteria. Styes can be a complication of blepharitis, but also seem to be brought on by stress. If you have a stye, you may be suffering from watery eyes, pain, tenderness, itching, or redness. Your eye may feel bruised and sensitive to light. You may also notice a reddish bump on your eyelid. If your stye is severe, you may develop an internal hordeolum. Pus will build up in the center of the stye, causing a yellowish spot that looks similar to a pimple. If the stye is painful, it will

What causes a stye to happen? Clogged eyelid glands seem to be one cause of styes. If you suffer from chronic blepharitis, bacteria may often build up and infect the glands, making you prone to developing styes. Eye makeup sometimes causes styes. Some people notice the development of a stye during times of stress. Recent research is implicating the potential role of a parasite called demodex in the development of styes. Demodex, while normally a commensal mite living in the eyelid as a parasite and eating sebum and skin cells of many adults and more rarely in children, can and under certain conditions, proliferate and accumulate in the lid meibomian oil ducts rather than held in check by the im-

mune system. Mechanical blockage occurs as the density of mites increases and bacteria proliferate in this micro environment. Both mites and bacteria turn oil to paste blocking the egress of the meibomian oil and creating blockage and infection.

How To Avoid a Stye?

• Relax. Styes often develop in times of stress. College students cramming for exams often wake up with a stye. During times of stress, our bodies excrete certain chemicals and hormones that may play a role in developing styes. Because stress is unavoidable in life, it is important to find ways to reduce or prevent stressful incidents and strive to decrease negative reactions to stress. • Keep It Clean. Clogged glands that line the eyelid can become infected and possibly develop into a stye. Take time daily to properly clean your face, gently washing your eyelids to remove excess debris. Never fall asleep without removing makeup. Residue from cosmetics can easily clog the glands of the eyelids. • Scrub. If you are prone to blepharitis, an inflammation and infection of the eyelid, put yourself on a schedule of weekly or even daily eyelid washes. Pre-packaged and pre-medicated eyelid wipes are available in stores, mak-

ing it easy to scrub the eyelids to reduce or eliminate bacteria that cause blepharitis, reducing the chance of developing a stye. Tear-free baby shampoo applied to a warm washcloth is a less-expensive alternative and makes a great eye scrub. • Warm Compress. Right before bed, apply a warm compress or washcloth soaked in very warm water to your eyes for 5 to 10 minutes.

How to Treat a Stye?

Styes tend to linger longer than most people would like. The following steps might speed up healing time. • Warm compress: Lightly press a warm washcloth against your eyelid for 10 minutes. Try this up to 4 times a day. • Massage: Gently massage the affected area. • Apply eye drops: Medicated eye drops or antibiotic ointments may help with the infection. Your eye doctor will be able to tell which is best in your situation. • Demodex treatment: In some cases resistant to simple and consistent lid hygiene and other ointments, treating demodex mites may be needed, which consists of applying a cream called ivermectin and tea tree oil wipes.

What are the Complications of Styes? The longer a stye hangs around, the more likely it is to turn into a chalazion. A chalazion is a blocked oil gland that has become infected. A chalazion usually causes pain and inflammation, as well as a hard lump or bump on the eyelid. Your eye doctor may suggest lancing the chalazion for draining, and possibly a steroid injection to reduce swelling.

Stye Tips

While you may have a strong urge to squeeze or pop a stye, it’s probably best to allow the stye to drain on its own. Squeezing the stye may cause a severe eye infection. See your doctor if you have a stye for longer than two weeks and it is resisting your application of warm compresses. To prevent the possibility of infection, avoid wearing eye makeup or contact lenses until the stye completely heals. Keep your eye lid margins clean. Styes tend to be common. Our center and ophthalmologists have state of the art equipment to diagnose and treat many eye problems, including styes. We also have a fully equipped surgical suite in our office to lance the stubborn styes. We are now able to better understand and manage this problem and continue our mission to provide world class eye care for the entire family. For more details, see our ad on this page.

If you had met Susan a year ago and saw her today, you would have a hard time believing this was the same person. Eight months ago, Susan started attending Hopkinton Health Center 5 days a week. Susan, who is 62, learned of the program through her sister. Prior to going to the center her days didn’t have structure or enjoyment. According to Susan’s sister Jean Turcotte, Susan has been a happier person since starting at the center. “She is a lot more even keeled, more positive,” Turcotte said. “She is also more animated.” The staff doesn’t push her to participate; she feels safe, confident and comfortable, Turcotte added. Susan joins in regularly and even participated in a talent show recently. “We love the staff, because they have been very supportive of her needs and our wishes as her

family,” Turcotte said. “What they do is really important. They have well-rounded activities, discussions, problem solving groups… she loves every bit of it.” Mona and Keith have a similar story, and though they have become fairly independent since starting at HHC, they still come back for the activities, the support and the friendships they have made. “The camaraderie is good,” said Mona. There is a “good balance of different things,” said Keith, “It is a great change from being at home. Coming here is a great thing.” The couple also discovered something unique about the center, after a recent medical issue that Mona had. “A really important thing to know is when you come here, they will take you to the hospital or doctor if you need it,” Mona said emphatically. It was the caring staff at Hopkin-

ton Health Center who noticed the problem right away and personally drove her to the hospital. They even stayed with her in the emergency room. “I couldn’t have done it by myself,” Mona added. “The nurse here helped Mona find a new primary care doctor, too,” Keith commented, “They really helped a lot.” The couple also said that they find the staff is accessible and easy to talk to if you have a problem. “They’ll do everything they can to help to straighten it out,” said Keith. Adding that he thinks the social worker is excellent and he enjoys the groups they offer and exercise programs. “We will continue to come here, it’s a wonderful place to go,” said Mona, adding, “They take us different places like bowling, out to restaurants, even the Worcester Art Museum!” Hopkinton Health Center, located at 25 South St. F, Hopkinton, offers a day program for adults 60 and over that includes social activities, organized groups, outings, meals, assistance in personal hygiene, medication assistance and nursing services.

Medway Chief Tingley Updates Local Businesses on Public Safety Issues On February 19, Medway Chief of Police Allen Tingley addressed Medway Business Council (MBC) members at the Thayer Homestead. Chief Tingley provided a variety of information related to public safety issues in Medway with a recap of some statistics for the past year. The focus for the Town of Medway Police Department is community policing. In the past year, Medway Police responded to over 13,000 calls in over 125 different categories including breaking and entering, domestic violence, alarms, drug and alcohol related issues, and theft. Approximately $35,000 of stolen property was recovered. Chief Tingley indi-

cated that there are far more calls related to residential than business complaints, and that there were not many business break-ins. In addition to crime-related calls, Medway Police responds to all fire and ambulance calls to provide support. He also discussed a variety of scams that residents and business owners need to be aware of. There are aggressive IRS tax scams where scammers call or email indicating the person owes money and demanding financial account information or prepaid card information for payment. Unfortunately, many people across the country are falling victims to such scams. There are also utility

scams where impersonators try to obtain financial information, try to gain entry into a person’s home, or make threats that power will be shut off unless payment is made immediately. Residents and businesses should be suspicious of any such demands for immediate payment. Never provide financial information or funds to anyone without being able to independently verify

that the information is true. The police department can provide assistance with questions. Chief Tingley also requested the assistance of all business property owners in Medway in providing the police department with up-to-date business contact information. If there is an alarm or other incident at a business location after hours, the police want to be able to contact the business

Sports Millis Boys 4 x 400 Team Exceeds Hopes by Getting to All-States by

Christopher Tremblay

The track and field program at Millis High School is only about 8 years old, and despite the numbers being on the smaller side the boys 4 x 400 relay team accomplished something that will forever be on the record books. Participating in the Class D State Meet at the Reggie Lewis Center in West Roxbury, the Mohawks four raced into school history, shattering the old records. The team of Kyle Davis, Kyle White, Neil Simmons and John Frasca completed the relay in an

impressive time of 3:41.39. The best finish of 3:42 in boys the 4 x 400 relay came during the outdoor season, while the previous indoor record was 3:36.25. What was more impressive was that the Mohawk runners not only finished fourth in the race, but qualified to take part in the All State Tournament. “We entered the race as the 14 seed and did not plan on placing and going to the All-States,” Millis Coach Jay Dupuis said. “They way they had been running I told them that we could possible finish eighth and that would have been

quite an accomplishment, but to finish fourth, never thought it possible.” While the coach was talking logically, the runners were thinking otherwise. “We were not expecting it and didn’t enter the race with high expectations,” junior anchor John Frasca recalled. “Myself, I was having a great day in my individual events and just wanted to carry that momentum with me into the race. My teammates set me up nicely.” Davis, a co-captain of the team with White and the first Millis runner, had a strange feeling that something special was about to unfold at the Reggie Lewis Center. “I definitely thought that we could run a good race, but we really didn’t expect to break the school record and advance to the All-States,” he said. “John and I had never run together and we just happened to run the two fastest times at the race.” Throughout the season Dupuis would put together the foursome that would give the Mohawks the best opportunity to win. In addition to Davis, White, Simmons

and Frasca, Peter Koistinen was also a main contributor for Millis in the 4x 400. “At the Class D’s we once again went with the best group,” the coach said. “It was really close in the head to heads leading up to the race, and he was the odd man out. Peter really deserves to have his name on the plaque with the rest of the guys as he was very important to us during the season.” Dupuis thought that the group he went with was the right choice and prior to the race the four trained specifically for that one race. Although the coach was not expecting a trip to the All-States, he was very pleased that they did get to extend their season one more race. While the Mohawks were ecstatic to race one more time before the season came to an end, it was not the outcome that they were hoping for. Unfortunately, half of the team that helped set the record could not attend the All-State Tournament due to previous commitments. “We never thought that we would be in this situation. We entered the race seeded last and

finished last. No record breaking performance, but I was just as proud of the kids for making,” Dupuis said. “So many others would have liked to have been where we were. I’m not disappointed with their performance, I’m extremely proud that they got the opportunity to represent our school.” Millis may not have repeated what they accomplished at the Class D Tournament, but the runner would have liked to have had a chance with the same four runners who brought them glory. “Of course, it was disappointing not having the same four guys available that broke the record for All-States,” Davis said. “The competition was much higher, and I would have liked to see what we could have done. On the bright side, it was nice to reward Peter for sticking with us despite not getting to run in our record breaking performance.” The indoor track season may be over, but soon enough the outdoor season will begin and who knows what this talented group of runners will be able to accomplish once the snow is gone.

Sports Ex-Millis Coach Vows To Turn Around Nichols’ Grid Program By KEN HAMWEY Dale Olmsted knows his second year as Nichols College football coach will be a big challenge — much like his first year, that produced a 1-9 record. But, the former Millis High grid coach, who compiled a 26-9 record during his final three years with the Mohawks, will continue to roll up his sleeves and “right the ship,” like he did when Millis’ program was close to dissolving in 2009. “If it’s going to take long days to turn around the Nichols program, then that’s what I’ll do,” said Olmsted. “Our staff and the players will just keep working hard and do our best. We’ve got a plan with standards, and we’ll see it through.” Two numbers on the academic side that have impressed the college’s president and the athletic director, according to Olmsted, are the increase in football players’ GPA and the number of those who’ve left the program because of academic ineligibility. “We’ve gone from a 2.2 average GPA to 2.7,” Olmsted said. “My goal is to bring the 2.7 to 3.0. Before I took over, eight players previously had to leave because of ineligibility. Last season, we

lost only four but that’s four too many.” To improve the numbers in the win-loss column, Olmsted will need time and his superiors appear to be patient as he recruits the type of student-athletes the Bison are seeking. “We’re trying to add players who are talented in football and also in the classroom,” Olmsted said. “The most important attribute is character. That’s a trait that lasts forever. We want to turn out successful men in business, industry and in all walks of life.” Olmsted is now on the recruiting trail, aiming to add 45 freshmen from all over the country. He’s heading to Georgia and Florida, where he’ll attend recruiting fairs and showcase events. “I’ll sit down with high school coaches, then meet with students,” Olmsted noted. “I’ll answer questions about Nichols, and I’ll also see players go through drills. Some of my assistants will also be recruiting in California.” Nichols, which primarily is a business college, also offers majors in liberal arts, sports management and criminal justice. The college, located in Dudley, has increased its enrollment from 1,000 last year to about 1,250 in 2015.

Before Millis, Olmsted was an assistant for 13 seasons at four other high schools. At Walpole, he was a dependable aide who was part of three Super Bowl championships. He also coached at Dedham, Braintree and King Philip. “I definitely will seek players from the Bay State League, the Hockomock League and the Tri Valley Conference,” he said. “I’m very familiar with those schools.” One school Olmsted will continue to watch and admire is Millis. Six years ago, he and athletic director Chuck Grant started merger proceedings with Hopedale High and saved Millis’ football program, which had only 18 players out in 2009. He’s hoping that since the co-op plan has ended, Millis will be able to sustain itself. “I’m not surprised the co-op ended,” Olmsted said. “Millis was having success. New coach Dana Olson did a great job last fall, compiling an 8-3 record and getting into the playoffs.” Josh Pierre-Charles, Millis’ superb running back, is a prospect Olmsted would like to see in a Bison uniform. “I coached Josh and he’ll be one of the best running backs in the state next fall,” Olmsted predicted. “He’s a leader with great character.”

Hoop Fever – It’s Catchy! The basketball season may have ended, but not for the 4th annual Hoop Fever Basketball Camp. This program, for boys and girls ages 8-13, has been well accepted in all our neighboring communities as a great opportunity for learning and enjoying basketball during April School Vacation. This year’s camp will begin Marathon Monday, April 20th, in the late afternoon to allow for watching or attending the event. From Tuesday the 21st to Friday the 24th, the camp meets from 8:30 to 1:30. That includes a break for lunch except on Friday when we have our annual Pizza and Award Party. The program is designed so that youngsters learn the game,

play it in competitive situations and have a great time. Campers drill every day in the basics of the game; from dribbling to passing, from rebounding to defense, all designed to gain basketball concepts for better play and understanding the game. Games are 3x3 games, allowing all players to be part of every play. Everyone touches the ball and everyone experiences the fun of playing! The staff are all coaches from the college level to youth programs. They take their work seriously and try to make all players appreciate and develop a love for the game. Steve Curley is the director of the Hoop Group, Inc. A former Holliston resident, he is the Owner/Director of the interna-

tionally-known Red Auerbach Basketball School, now in its 55th season, as well as the All Cape Hoop Camps. The Program Director is Don Grimes, former Head Coach at Medway High School and currently a certified board official in two college leagues. Together with their staff, they bring a dynamic enthusiasm that generates to the campers making for a great week of basketball. Information on all the Hoop Group camps can be obtained either by calling (617) 899-5433 or online at www.superhoopcamps. com. Registration is limited, so sign up today and you can catch the Hoop Fever!

Ex-Millis, now Nichols Coach Olmsted is emphasizing academic as well as athletic excellence as he strives to transform the school’s stats.

Three other Millis players Olmsted often thinks about are Taylor Sack, Jon Baker and Bay Tangney. “All three suffered setbacks while I was at Millis,” Olmsted said. “Taylor was injured in a skiing accident and we were devastated because he was paralyzed. “That was hard for him, his family and the team. Both Jon and Bay suffered ACL injuries, missing most of one season.” Two of his Millis all-star linemen — Brett Angel and Jimmy Whitlow — are now assistant coaches on Olmsted’s staff. The 46-year-old Olmsted has advice for prospective college players. “Get your transcripts in order,” he emphasized. “Good grades are a big key,” he said. “Be responsible in all areas. At

Division 3 Nichols, we give only scholarships based on GPA and academic merit.” The last time Nichols had a winning football season was in 2007 when the Bison posted a 5-4 record. A winning record for Nichols, which competes in the New England Football Conference, is Olmsted’s ultimate goal, even if it means facing the likes of Coast Guard Academy, Curry, M.I.T, Endicott, Salve Regina, Western New England and Maine Maritime. “We’ll keep working diligently to right the ship,” he reemphasized. “But we won’t stray from our standards.”

Special Olympics in Holliston April 10 By J.D. O’Gara The Special Olympics are coming! On Friday, April 10th, starting at 9:15 a.m., about 80 Special Olympians from Holliston, Millis, Medway, Ashland and Medfield, from grades 3-12, will be honored as Holliston hosts the 5 Town Special Olympics School Day Games to its town. For the third year, these five towns are collaborating to make this event one these children will never forget. With open ceremonies kicking off at 10 a.m. at the Holliston High School Field House, about 30 Special Olympians will be from Holliston itself. Students will compete in track and field events, including a 45-meter run, an obstacle course, a throwing event, a standing broad jump, and even a one-push propel for wheelchair. Their day will even include a yoga station, a photo booth to commemorate the day’s activities and arts and crafts. “Newbie,” from New Balance, will also be there. “We have a really strong presence in terms of our student ath-

letes,” says Holliston Student Services Director Meg Camire. “Our community is really supportive of our student athletes, and it’s a real peer to peer event in terms of supporting the Special Olympics mantra, and really stressing the importance of inclusion.” Camire explains that, in Holliston, students from the Best Buddies program as well as Captains from the Captains’ Council are volunteering to buddy up with Special Olympians. Millis’s five Special Olympians also have volunteer buddies from Millis High School working with Them, says Susan Donovan, Director of Special Education in Millis. Teacher Allie Sears is helping the students train, and space to train has been donated by Kids Turf. All of the Special Olympians from the five towns are training with the aid of a video Holliston middle school physical education teacher Brandon Kwas prepared for them. From the video, students get a sense of what to expect and their coaches can help them with

their conditioning for the big day. And it’s going to be a great day. “The athletes get recognition that they typically don’t have an opportunity to ever have,” says Pat Montain, Holliston schools’ physical therapist, and the student volunteers “get an opportunity to help somebody they can really make a difference for. There’s just so much joy and so much excitement.” To begin with, there’s the parade. Student athletes will also be cheered on by their fellow students and will see inspirational posters for them made by fellow students. Participating in the parade, from Stoddard Park at 9:15 a.m., will be an honor guard, first responders from each of the five towns as well as the local SWAT team. The parade will run from Stoddard to Central Street, Washington Street and Hollis Street to the High School. At Holliston High School, Special Olympians will bring in the Olympic torch, lead the National Anthem and the Special Olympian’s oath. Holliston will welcome

“Our two guests are going to highlight the differences in ability,” says Camire. “One is a paralympian, but both are Special Olympians. I think the track and field event, because of adaptable equipment, will highlight the wide

Ladies Take Aim at Women on Target, May 30

T imoThy G ranTham ELECTRICIAN

Serving your electrical needs for new work, remodeling and repair. NO JOB TOO SMALL

Ladies – have you ever thought about trying your hand at recreational shooting? Ever been curious why people enjoy the shooting sports? Here is your opportunity to learn! Come join us for a women’s only instructional shooting clinic on Saturday, May 30 (rain date June 7). You will receive handson instruction in firearms safety, shotgun, rifle and pistol by the friendly and knowledgeable folks at the Fin, Fur and Feather Club in Millis. No previous experience is necessary; just the desire to learn and have fun.

This course will give you the necessary certificates to apply for your Massachusetts Firearms License – if you choose – at no extra cost. The $50 tuition includes eye and hearing protection, all materials, lunch and the Massachusetts Basic Firearms Safety certificate – a value of over $150! You must complete the eight-hour course to receive your certificate. This event is limited to 50 people and you must be at least 16 years old to participate. The Fin,

range of abilities.” “Everyone can access events and participate on their own level. There’s a wide range of kids that participate, kids that do varsity track and some kids in a wheelchair, so we set it up so all can have some sort of success at the event,” says Montain. At the games’ end, students will receive medals from the first responders from their town. In fact, this year, the children will be grouped according to their ability, rather than their age range. The day would not be possible without support from the community. “All of the towns work to get local donations,” says Montain. Medfield’s Matt LaCava, for example, got the support of National Best Karate, and the group has t-shirts donated at cost from another local business. T.C. Scoops has gotten into the mix, and the local Lions club supplies food for the day. Fiske’s General Store also donated a portion of its sales of its membership and membership renewals for the month of March to the 5 Town Special Olympic Event. The Holliston Education Foundation and Ashland Parent Advisory councils have donated, says Montain, who says donations are still being welcomed and appreciated.

Help “Jiggs “and Other PCS Cats at April 3 Bake Sale “Jiggs” is one of 16 cats that were rescued from a condemned home in our area. He is a handsome, shorthair, brown tiger who is not as outgoing as some, but with the love and attention from the PCS volunteers he is developing much more confidence. There is now doubt Jiggs loves to play and entertain himself as the toy basket is emptied and strewn all over the room when he’s out. We think Jiggs will definitely benefit from the company of another cat or two and a family that will give him the time he needs to get adjusted to new surroundings. If you are interested in meeting Jiggs or any of our other cats available for adoption please visit our website www.purrfectcatshelter.org for an adoption application or call the Message Center (508) 533-5855 to have one sent to you. Stop by the Purr-fect Cat Shelter annual Bake Sale on Friday, April 3rd, at Wal-Mart, in Bellingham from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Proceeds benefit all

cats and kittens at the Purr-fect Cat Shelter, who have been examined by a Veterinarian, spayed or neutered, tested for feline leukemia and FIV, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption. The Purr-fect Cat Shelter is a non-profit, no-kill, all volunteer organization providing care and shelter to homeless cats and kittens with the ultimate goal of finding permanent, loving homes for each cat.

Our Town Publishing Home of Local Town Pages Expands To New Location Will Focus on Being Small Business Specialists Our Town Publishing is excited to announce its new location in Gould’s Plaza at 74 Main Street in Medway. The new site will enable Our Town Publishing to open its commercial printing to the public. “It has been a long time since I had a retail location,” said owner Charles Tashjian. Tashjian was also the owner of Photosite, a photo lab in Millis in the Roche Bros. plaza. “I have always had a great relationship with my customers but when I saw that

digital printing was going to be the end of photo labs, I had already begun transitioning to offset printing and publishing by adding Our Town Publishing,” he observed. Tashjian added digital printing and graphic design, and has been helping his clients by creating everything from business cards, envelopes and brochures, to helping schools with program guides, yearbooks, and sports programs. Our Town Publishing was located at 163 Main Street in Medway

at the Stone Mill for 8 years. “We always helped anyone who came in, but we were not set up to help the everyday retail client,” Tashjian said. The new location at 74 Main Street has plenty of parking and a central entrance that makes it easy to just walk right in. Our Town Publishing is next to Yama Fuji Restaurant. Our Town Publishing is also the home of Local Town Pages, its newspaper division. In 2010, Tashjian launched his first newspaper, Medway/Millis, an every door direct mailed monthly newspaper.

“I had no idea how popular a local paper would be,” said Tashjian. “I wanted to bring back what I thought a local paper should be—a townoriented paper that would give the local organizations a chance to be heard. In other papers you would be lucky to read one or two articles about your town.” After the initial launch of the Medway/Millis paper, Tashjian started a Norwood paper and by the end of the year, a Franklin edition. “I must admit launching three papers in under a year was a lot to take on,” said Tashjian. Since then, he has added Ashland, Holliston, Norfolk/Wrentham and most recently, Hopedale. Local Town

Winter Camp Competition for Girl Scouts in the North East, with girls coming as far as from Vermont and Maine to compete. Girls compete in camp skills such as Woodsaw, String Burning, Constellation, Flag Pole Lashing, Travois lashing, Outdoor baking, Snowshoe Biathlon, Compass, Dog Sled Race, mystery event and flag. The girls also must try to meet two inspections. There is a trail in inspection and campsite inspection. Each year girls come to this event and compete in these camp skills. They sleep outside in tents. This year, the event was held just as a day event because of the dangerous winds of the blizzard. Not all events were run so that troops could head home ahead of the storm. Girls come as far as Ver-

The “Book Report” Redefined – Blogging About Books at Clyde F. Brown School Jason D. Phelps, CFB Principal

Everyone who went through elementary remembers the “book report” – the expectation to read a book (maybe your choice, maybe an assigned book) and then write a report about what you had read. In many classrooms in bygone days, students might even have had to stand in front of the class to read their book report aloud to their peers while the teacher listened and commented upon the quality of the work presented. Today, students in elementary schools are still expected to read books (for pleasure or for content

learning) and think about what they have read, reporting this information out in either written format or through a presentation – that hasn’t changed. What has changed in the classrooms of today, though, are the instructional methods and tools used to accomplish this task! At Clyde F. Brown School in Millis, students – grades PreK through 4 – have been participating in a school wide book sharing and “book blog.” Each month, Reading Specialists Marnie Doherty and Cathy Bernier-Garzon and Instructional Technology teacher Pat Granchelli, who serve as the Clyde

Millis Garden Club Ken Nichols Scholarship The Millis Garden Club is currently accepting applications for a $1,500 Scholarship to be awarded to a high school senior who plans to pursue a career in horticulture, agriculture, conservation, landscape design, environmental science or related fields. The scholarship, funded from raffle proceeds and other Club fund raising activities, is given in memory of Ken Nichols, who was a Millis Garden Club member and certified arborist. The deadline for applying for the 2015 Ken Nichols Scholarship is May 1. Applicants should have a B average overall. Interested seniors may obtain eligibility information and application forms from their school guidance department or t http://millisgardenclub.org/scholarship.html. Candidates should send completed applications, along with transcripts and references, to the Millis Garden Club, Scholarship Committee, Attention: Joan Nichols, PO Box 535, Millis, MA 02054. Applications and questions may also be emailed to joannichols365@gmail.com.

F. Brown “Blog Squad,” challenge students to read books of their selection, think critically about what they have read, and synthesize their thinking into a “blog” (short for “weblog” – a website that chronicles personal activities, experiences or opinions electronically and provides a forum for readers to view and comment upon what they have read). Recognizing that blogging is a skill that takes time to develop, students in grades PreK through 2 participate in reading and book sharing by going to the CFB Kidsblog website to download and print a form that they can write on and/ or illustrate; they bring these completed sheets back to school and share them with peers and teachers. In many ways, this experience provides students with practice in the fundamental skills of writ-

Millis Troop 74951’s team, made up also of some members of Troop 74941, earned first place wins for the Cadette division (grades 7-9th grade) Woodsaw, Pictured top L-R (Sofi Murray, Anna Pasquantonio, Flagpole lashing, Madison Schofield and Melissa Kennelly) (Troop Travois Lashing, 74951) Pictured Bottom L-R (Tess May, Olivia Lynch, Constellation, Irene Koistinen, Katy Golden) (Troop 74920) Mystery, Trail In Inspection.

These skills are further developed in grades 3 and 4, where students are given direct instruction about how to first organize their thinking about what they have read and then respond through a blog on the CFB Kidsblog website. Each month, a new challenge is issued – perhaps using an entertaining beginning, using rich vocabulary choices, or including detail in writing. Grades 3 and 4 each have a blog page on which students post their finalized entries about what they have read; all student are encouraged to use the blogs as a digital “clearinghouse” from which they can get ideas about what they might be interested in reading next, and are also encouraged to provide feedback about the writing that their fellow bloggers have accomplished. Classroom teachers and the “Blog Squad” select quality student-created blogs that are posted in the halls of CFB as visual references for all students as exemplars of strong, effectively written blogs. So is there still a place, in 21st

Century classrooms, for the book report? Book reports provide practice in synthesizing reading with writing, as do book blogs. Book reports provide practice in “presentation skills,” as do book blogs. They even provide a forum for giving and receiving feedback, as do book blogs. With book reports, as is the case with book blogging, the overarching theme is to is to provide students with engaging experiences that encourage reading and writing about what they have read. Book reports will continue to have a presence in elementary classrooms, however the instructional method may change!

Control. You can get that number when you call your local police. The Police should call animal control, but don’t assume as the Police may not. Depends on their procedures. TRY to get the animal into a safe place. A fenced in back yard, a garage, a breezeway, even your car. All of these have worked in our experience. Don’t put yourself at risk! Offer water. (Offering food, use this at your own discretion, some owners would not approve this since it reinforces the animals behavior to run away to your house. But, if the animal is malnourished or if its the only way to get the animal to a safe place then think about a treat. CONTACT THE OWNER CHECK for address or phone numbers on the pets’ collar! Call the owner! Leave a detailed message with your address and

your best contact number. Remember the owner may not answer, because they are out looking for their pet. DO what ever you can do to keep the animal safe until the rescue. IF there is still no response from all that you have tried, keep the pet safe and keep calling Animal Control/Police again who can take and hold safe until the owner arrives. Note below: Not all Towns have full time Animal Control Staff. The Police SHOULD then be at least responsive. Our pets are part of our family. In our case, Our pups ARE our kids. Don’t be afraid to call the police emergency number. Some web sites and police sites say only call 911 if its a human lifethreatening situation. 911.gov says if you don’t know if something is an emergency, then you should call 911 just in case. In my

opinion, a dog off leash can harm itself, other pets, someone’s property or children. Have I got your attention? Most towns have leash laws. A dog off leash Is breaking the law. If you still don’t like the idea of dialing 911, then dial the police business number. There are so many dangers out there: CARS, STREETS, RIVERS, BROOKS, BAD STRANGERS, etc - these can all be a danger to an unknowing and unsuspecting pet. On 3/13/2015, calling the Police was not enough. Please, follow these simple steps. Do what ever you can to save a most beloved life. Our pets are family. In loving memory of Count, our most beloved 2 year old Samoyed pup, Rick and Nancy Millis, MA

Millis COA April Events Reach the Millis Council on Aging at (508) 376-7051.

Prescription Advantage Each year thousands of seniors in Massachusetts reach the gap in their Medicare prescription drug coverage (Part D) that is often called the “donut hole.” This year, when Medicare beneficiaries (who do not get Extra Help) reach the donut hole, their Part D plan will pay 55% of covered brand name drugs and 35% of covered generic drugs. Although 55% coverage of a brand name drug might sound great, it’s really not that great if you take a brand name drug that costs $300. You will still have to pay $135. Prescription Advantage can help. Kathy Devine from the Executive Office of Elder Affairs will be at the Millis Senior Center on Wednesday, April 15th at 10 a.m. to explain. Please call to reserve your seat.

Protect Your Memory Forgetfulness happens from time to time, but sometimes it can be cause for concern.

This will be followed by six, 10-minute workouts designed not only to shape and tone your body, but aid in protecting your memory. The easy to follow exercises are performed with beginner, intermediate and advanced moves. No equipment is required (although you may want to bring an exercise mat for intermediate and advanced workouts). Come join us on Monday, April 13th at 1 p.m. Sign-ups are suggested.

Openings Supportive Day Group This is a specifically designed program for elders or disabled individuals suffering from mild to

moderate cognitive difficulties or who can not stay at home alone during the day. We strive to enrich the lives of each senior by being a part of the supportive team that allows them to remain healthy, happy and independent. Call Patty at 376-7051 for more information.

Computer Tutoring Spend some time in our computer center with Instructor, Dan Dion.

He is available every Tuesday and Thursday 10 to noon. Sign-ups are not necessary but are greatly appreciated.
