Remembrances and Awareness at Walk of Tears
Turf Field Closer to Reality
By Grace Allen On a bright, clear Sunday morning in early May, over 100 King Philip and Franklin High School students took part in the annual SADD Walk of Tears. Held in memory of Maura Howard, a graduate of KP High School, and Amy Callaghan, a graduate of Franklin High School, both victims of drunk driving, the Walk raised over $2000 for SADD programs and scholarships at the two high schools. On July 31, 1994, Maura Howard of Norfolk was killed KP students Drew Dunne and Paul Kelley lead the Walk of Tears when the car she was riding schools, the walk would bring SADD has now become the in was struck from behind by a together the two athletic rivals voice of substance abuse predrunk driver.

be diverted towards the abatement. A new running track, bleachers, state-of-the-art lighting and press box, as well as the initial prep work for a turf field were still put in place. A group of private citizens then committed to move the project forward but it stalled due to the economic conditions at the time. KP High School remains one of just a handful of schools in the Hockomock League and in the area without synthetic turf. KP frequently has to bus its athletes to other schools for practices and games because the grass is often unplayable. The MIAA has moved playoff games away from KP because the field does not meet tournament specifications. According to Barbara Snead, Steering Committee Co-Chair, “A turf field would allow us to use the field 24/7 and put our students on par competitively with the other Hockomock League teams as most of them have turf.” The KP Marching Band currently rents equipment such as lifts

By Grace Allen At Norfolk’s annual Town Meeting, residents approved an article that authorized the town to provide $207,000 for its share of the proposed turf field at King Philip Regional High School. Now either Plainville or Wrentham voters have to approve funding for the field at their town meetings before the project can move forward. The school district’s agreement with the towns spells out only two of the three towns have to approve the expenditure. Plainville Town Meeting is June 1, while Wrentham Town Meeting is June 8. The KP Warrior Turf Field Project Committee has raised almost half of the funds necessary for the project, in both cash and inkind donations. The group is hopeful that after years of planning and fundraising, the turf field portion of the athletic complex will soon be a reality. When King Philip High School was renovated in 2007, a turf field was initially factored into the plans for the athletic complex. However, asbestos was discovered in the high school and the funds earmarked for the field itself had to

Electric Youth first debuted in England and France in 2013 and this season’s itinerary marks a return to those countries after last summer’s tour of Austria and Italy. Selected annually by audition, the group is chosen for superior musicianship, stage presence, and triple threat accomplishments in voice, dance, and acting. This season’s ensemble of performers, ages 15-17, studies multiple
dance disciplines, voice, and acting at FSPA.

King, Diana Ross, The Temptations and Van Morrison. EY’s show band features Kenny Hadley on drums, Bill Miele on bass, Artie Montanaro on trombone, Walter Platt on trumpet, Ken Reid on tenor saxophone, Ben Whiting on baritone saxophone, John Wilkins on guitar, and Raye Lynn Mercer on piano.

and Ben Whiting. Hallie Wetzell is Electric Youth’s Vocal Director. Choreographers include Mercer, Casey Andrade, Cheryl Madeux, Nick Paone and Kellie Stamp. Electric Youth has released six professional CDs and toured Europe 11 times, with performances at England’s Arundel Festival, Disneyland Paris, professional theaters in Bristol, London and Windsor, and such renowned venues as Sanremo’s Ariston Theatre and Vienna’s Konzerthaus, Musikverein and Schonbrunn Palace. EY has also headlined Fourth of July shows for U.S. troops and their families stationed in Italy at Camp Ederle, Camp Darby, and Aviano Air Force Base. The ensemble has performed on Royal
Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas, on Fox-TV and WBZ Radio, and at Fenway Park, Gillette Stadium, Mechanics Hall, the Smithsonian Museum Theater and the United Nations.

Tavern at Wrentham Celebrates 5 Years The Tavern at Wrentham marked its five year anniversary in May with a week of celebrations that included dinner specials, live entertainment, and a complimentary buffet. Owner Doug Smith said he wanted to show his appreciation to valued customers, entertainers, staff, and others within the community. “I couldn’t be more pleased,” said Smith of his success. Smith acquired the old “Tom’s Tavern,” a popular bar and restaurant on Shears Street, by offering the highest bid at auction for the land and building. After making extensive interior and exterior renovations, including a new septic system and enclosing the tented deck as a permanent function room, “The Tavern at Wrentham” opened for business on May 20, 2010.
Since then, a steady stream of customers, music shows, trivia, karaoke, painting parties, and private functions has made the the Tavern a lively and popular venue for food and good times. A success story despite the economic climate of the past few years, The Tavern at Wrentham is grateful for community support. The Tavern at Wrentham is located at 263 Shears Street in Wrentham. It features a full bar and family-friendly dining, including soups, salads, pizza, seafood, pasta, burgers, and a kids menu.

FPAC Presents Original New Musical, Zero Franklin Performing Arts Company (FPAC) presents an original new musical, Zero, on June 12-14. Performances will be staged Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30 and Sunday at 2 p.m. at THE BLACK BOX, FPAC’s theater, music, and event venue in downtown Franklin. Zero is an energetic and experimental show that incorporates music and dance to tell the simple story of a fool’s journey through life. Notably, the tale will not be presented as a normal narrative. Rather, the fable will be told through 21 distinct scenes, each inspired by the symbolism of a card from the major arcana of a tarot deck. The show will evolve throughout the rehearsal process, but the audience can expect to see magic, video projections, puppetry, innovative choreog-
raphy, stunning visual effects and evocative music inspired by cultures from around the world. The musical’s hero, Zero, will encounter joy and loss, fear and wonderment, and will take audiences along for the ride. Franklin’s Nick Paone is the creative force behind FPAC”s newest musical and both directs and appears in the production as well. A prolific FPAC performer and director, the versatile Paone has been featured this season as Captain Hook, Scrooge, and Harold Hill in Peter Pan, Humbug! and The Music Man, respectively. Humbug!, Paone’s contemporary musical adaptation of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, has become a cherished part of many FPAC holiday seasons. Nick is the founder of FPAC’s annual summer Whatever Theater Festival and directs the festival’s One Acts
and presentations of Shakespeare on the Common. In addition to Paone, area performers featured in Zero include Jason Barney, Lily Barney, Julia Buccella, Brooke Collins, Aaron Frongillo, Ali Funkhouser, Kelly Irwin, Jocelyn Jones, Sydney Leach, Catherine LeClair, Lindsey Sparages, Hallie Wetzell, Lindsey Wyner, Melissa Wyner, and Peter Wyner of Franklin; Colie Vancura of Medfield; Alan Mercer of Medway; and Griffin Wilkins of Walpole. Musical direction is by Hallie Wetzell, THE BLACK BOX, the home of the Franklin Performing Arts Company (FPAC), is located at 15 West Central Street. Tickets are $26.

Cruising To a Successful Weight Loss New England Fat Loss Client Clocks Many Miles to Achieve His Goal East Wareham resident Jeff Monast admits he was initially hesitant to commit to the one hour drive to join New England Weight Loss (NEFL). Once he met Dr. John and the NEFL staff and learned about the program, however, the commute was a minimal factor to achieve his weight loss goals. “When I first heard it was so far away, I thought, that really stinks, but after my experience, it is well worth the drive,” Monast said. According to the forty-two year old Monast, the stimulus to walk through that door on April 15 far outweighed any inconvenience. He was experiencing lack of energy and was intrigued with their 20 to 40 pounds lost in 40 days guarantee. “I don’t know what clicked in my head, but I honestly couldn’t recommend it enough,” Monast said. “I’ve been fighting my weight since I’ve been 10 years old, and I honestly did not think it would be this easy to lose the weight. While being interviewed on day 23 of his first stage, Monast had dropped 34.9 pounds, already within reach of that first significant goal. The food combinations, daily weight reports and office visits guided the way, but Monast
also found Dr. John’s assistance invaluable. “I knew I would have no time to prepare meals during one weekend and we went back and forth with ideas,” Monast said. He is very accessible.” Monast is thrilled with his success of the Phase 1 portion of the program, but is motivated to enter the next stage. Through an extensive diagnostic process, the NEFL team will identify specific foods to work with his individual body chemistry and trigger additional weight loss. “Once I get through the 40 days, they give me a list of my personal weight-burning foods that are good for my body makeup,” Monast said. “I’m pretty excited to see what they are.” From the beginning, nothing has come in the way of Monast reaching his weight loss goals: not miles, time or commitment. His true drive, however, comes from his family. “This is a lifestyle change, not a diet, and my number one reason is because I have a beautiful wife and two beautiful children that I want to be around a long time for,” Monast said. Your journey can begin today! New England Fat Loss offers two convenient locations: 22 South Street, Suite 204, Hopkinton and 188 Needham Street, Suite 255, Newton.

of the consequences of destructive decisions. Said Dunne, “Hopefully we can reach some students.” In the past, the group’s activities have included staging a mock car crash with local emergency personnel, a graphic and shocking reminder to students of the dangers of drunk driving. Paul Kelley, a junior at KP and this year’s SADD vice-president, says SADD tries to teach teenag-
ers that resisting peer pressure in the moment will benefit them in the long run. “We try to let others know that you are accepted for doing the right thing,” said Kelley. Wrentham Police Chief James Anderson believes “SADD promotes a better quality of life in the community.” He said the group uses peer to peer monitoring to empower young people to make positive decisions in their lives. “I can tell you the students are dedicated and motivated to spread the message while not being judg-
mental towards others,” said Chief Anderson. In a 2014 survey, the National Institute on Drug Abuse found rates of cigarette smoking, alcohol use, and prescription and synthetic drug abuse by children and teens had actually declined. Groups like DARE and SADD hope young people are getting the message, but know their work is never finished. “The goal is to hopefully save lives by reminding kids to make the right decision and I’d like to believe that we have accomplished this a few times,” said Dunne. Both Kelley and Dunne said they were pleased at the number of people at this year’s Walk of Tears. Although 100 people officially registered for the event, many more came out in support. This year the sports teams at KP showed up in force, which pleased the organizers. “As a DARE counselor I always believed in the values that are presented by these groups,”

said Dunne. “I think SADD has had an impact on a lot of people at KP.” The Howard family spoke briefly at the start of this year’s walk. They are grateful the Walk of Tears has continued for the past 20 years and remain committed to raising awareness about the hazards of driving drunk. They say the walk has raised tens of thousands of dollars for scholarships at both high schools, and hope more parents will encourage their children to join SADD. Both Tom and Maureen Howard, Maura’s parents, are members of MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving), and Tom Howard has been asked to serve on the board of MADD’s northeast region this year. Maureen Howard has a bumper sticker on her car that reads, “I’m MADD Because a Drunk Driver Killed My Daughter.” The SADD Walk of Tears rotates annually between KP High School and Franklin High School.
The advisors may change and new student leaders emerge, but the message remains the same. “We hope that those who walk remember to never drink and drive,” said Maureen Howard.

When facing a divorce, remember...
Some Relationships Last a Lifetime. Before engaging in an expensive divorce filled with conflict and animosity, consider how your choices will impact you and your kids - now and in the future.
Norfolk Community Federal Credit Union went WILD celebrating our Eleventh Annual National Credit Union Youth Week April 22-24, during Spring vacation. The credit union’s goal is financial education, including preparing our young people for the financial challenges they will meet as they grow and mature. Our commitment to serve our younger members reflects our belief that financial education has the greatest
impact on young people when basics such as money management, saving and investing and wise use of credit are taught early. For the eleventh year, Youthweek highlighted how young people earn, spend, save and manage their own money. Norfolk Credit Union encouraged the children to open an account and begin saving by offering the children free giveaways. The three-day free celebra-
tion was open to the public and the “Wild About Saving” theme was celebrated with a festive safari atmosphere including fun activities and goody bags for all the children. The children enjoyed making animal sand art creations and lion heads using curly pasta. They also got to decorate animal picture frames and tried to break into the play vaults by using the correct four digit code. Tickets were awarded for each activity

Creative Storage Solutions For Kitchens and Baths By Alex Yavarow One of the most common questions I get as a designer is regarding clever organizational options and creative storage solutions for kitchens and baths. People want to take advantage of as much space as possible, especially space that would otherwise be wasted. This is particularly true in the kitchen and bathroom, where there are often several items that need to be stored, but at times, limited space
Ballet Jazz Tumble Hip Hop
to do so. Here are some of my favorite space saving storage solutions in cabinet design. When I am putting a kitchen layout together, one storage solution I always try to incorporate is the toekick drawer. I think this feature is my favorite hidden storage solution because it takes advantage of space that is otherwise ALWAYS wasted. The toekick drawer is a drawer underneath the cabinets in the kick space (where

your toes go when you stand close to your cabinets). Though the drawer is short and located at the ground (and therefore, not super convenient to access), it still can serve a mighty purpose. I have seen the toekick drawer used as a place for flat baking sheets, a place for batteries and flashlights and the like, and a place for placemats and table linens. One client even used it as a junk drawer but liked that it was on the ground and slightly inconvenient to access, which made her have less junk in her junk drawer! The toekick drawer is the ultimate way to make “dead space” usable! Another hidden solution in the kitchen is the Wall Message Center. This 3” wide cabinet is meant to go on the end of a cabinet run. Instead of using a 3” wide filler piece somewhere along the cabinet run, this 3” wide cabinet end piece makes up the extra inches needed to complete the run, while also providing a very functional purpose. When you open the cabinet, the Wall Message Center features a white board, a place to hold pens and pencils, key hooks, and slots for the mail and other miscellaneous items. This can keep clutter off of the counters and make the kitchen organized and clutterfree! Another culprit for wasted space in the kitchen is in drawers. Take a look at your silverware
drawer at your house. Most likely, you have a cutlery divider of some kind, but take a look at how much space there is above the cutlery to the top of the inside of the drawer. Often, standard kitchen door/ drawer base cabinets in kitchen cabinetry have a drawer that is deeper than what needs to be stored. A solution? The Wood Tiered Cutlery Divider Drawer. This drawer insert takes advantage of the unused space in standard drawers by allowing for 2 levels of storage for silverware. The dividers are on a glide system, so you can just slide the top one back when you need to access the lower. Yet another excellent use of space! Of course, storage is needed in places besides the kitchen. My favorite solution in the bathroom is the brand new Mirror with Pull Out Storage, from Decora Cabinetry, a brand of Masterbrand. This is an answer to many issues in the bathroom when it comes to storage. While medicine cabinets certainly serve a purpose, some are bulky and lack style. With this
Alex Yavarow
mirror, you can coordinate the stain or finish to match your vanity. On either side of the mirror, there are pull outs so you can store many of your bathroom needs without taking up precious space on the counters or in the vanity. Genius!

The many benefits of hiring a professional landscaper
OPEN
FOR THE SEASON
LSH’S WA GREENHOUSE
The flowers are blooming, and the grass has begun to grow anew, making spring a great time for homeowners to once again turn their attention to landscaping. Those who aren’t looking forward to dusting off their lawnmowers and rethreading their string trimmers may want to hire professional landscapers to tend to their lawns and gardens. A recent joint study by the National Gardening Association, Residential Lawn and Landscape Services and the Value of Landscaping found that homeowners spend roughly $45 billion per year on professional lawn and landscape services, as nearly 30 percent of all households across the United States use at least one type of lawn or landscape service. The rising use of lawn care services is indicative of homeowners’ appreciation of the convenience and craftsmanship professional services can provide. While the impact professional landscapers can have on a property’s aesthetic appeal is considerable, homeowners also benefit from working with professional landscapers in various other ways. · Time savings: One of the biggest benefits of leaving lawn care to the professionals is the

amount of time it will save for the average homeowner. Lawns generally need to be mowed once per week during the spring and summer seasons and, depending on the size of the property, that can take an hour or more. Add the time it takes to clean up clippings, mulch landscaping beds and edge the property, and homeowners can expect to devote a significant chunk of their weekends to caring for their lawns. Lawn services employ a few workers who make fast work of the job, leaving homeowners time to enjoy their weekends however they see fit. · Reduced risk for injury: Maintaining a landscape is hard work, and those unaccustomed to this type of activity may find themselves winded or at risk of injury. Improper use of lawn equipment also is a safety hazard. Leaving the work to professionals can help homeowners avoid strained backs, lacerations, pulled muscles, sunburns, and any other dangers that can result when tackling landscaping projects. · Financial savings: On the surface, hiring a landscaping service may seem like a costly venture. However, after crunching some numbers, many homeowners realize that doing the work themselves may cost more in the long run than hiring a professional landscaping service. Homeowners who decide to go it alone must purchase expensive equipment, and those lawn tools will require routine maintenance, which costs additional money. Inexperienced homeowners may incur extra fees to “fix” mistakes
that occur during the learning process. Each year, new seed, fertilizer, mulch, pesticides, and other supplies also must be purchased. But professional lawn care services typically charge a set fee per month, and that fee covers the maintenance of both your property and the equipment needed to keep that property looking great. · Know-how: Many professional landscapers know how to address lawn care issues that may arise throughout the year. They will know how to deal with dry patches of lawn or poorly draining areas, and they also can make recommendations on plants that will thrive under certain conditions. · One-stop shopping: Certain landscaping services provide many different options for prospective customers. Basic lawn cuts may be one package, but there also may be services for seasonal seeding, weeding, leaf clean-up, and winterizing. · Consistent maintenance: Homeowners who frequently travel or spend much of their summers away from home often find that lawn care companies are a wise investment. Established weekly schedules ensure the landscape always will look its best whether homeowners are home or out of town. Spring is a great time for homeowners to decide if hiring professional landscaping services is in their best interests. The time and money saved, as well as impact professional landscapers can have on a property, makes landscaping services a great investment for many homeowners

Did you know? While it might be tempting to lower mower blades when summer temperatures reach their hottest, it is possible to cut grass too short. Homeowners who want to cut back on the time they spend mowing their lawns under the hot summer sun should avoid lowering their mower blades too low, as doing so can cause significant damage to the lawn. Lawns that have been cut too low are less capable of surviving drought and are unlikely to thrive. When grass is cut too short, the stem tissue from the grass is exposed, and that exposure
can lead to unsightly grass that turns yellow or brown. Grass that is cut too short also may suffer from weaker roots, which in turn makes the grass weaker and less likely to grow in strong. In addition, weaker grass is more susceptible to weed growth, which can be both a nuisance and an eyesore. When mowing, homeowners should remove no more than one-third of the grass blade. Mowing at this height will promote strong roots and protect the grass when theweather gets especially hot in the summer.

Contributed by Kristi Paradis, Physical Therapist Assistant Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab, Inc. Dynamic stretching is a relatively new concept in the realm of warm ups and flexibility. Dynamic stretching simply means stretching while moving rather than static stretching which is stretching by holding the position for 30 seconds. So what’s the difference between Static and Dynamic and when should they be used? Dynamic stretches serve a variety of purposes prior to working out OR participating in a physical chore like shoveling or yard work. They activate the muscles used during a workout, increase mobility, and increase body awareness. Static stretches cause an inhibition of the excitability of muscle tissue. In other words it relaxes the muscles, the exact opposite of what you need prior to working out or performing a high level chore. These should be done after exercise or physical activity. Studies show static stretches, though safe, decrease performance IF performed prior to activity; but, dynamic stretching increases muscle power and performance. Therefore, dynamic stretching before exercise is essential. By performing a series of slow, controlled movements you are firing muscles in a way that mimics how you will use them in the coming minutes or hours of exercise. If done right, you will feel a nice stretch, along with a slight rise in heart rate as blood flow

LIVING HEALTHY Preventing Eye Injuries at Home By: Roger M. Kaldawy, M.D., Milford Franklin Eye Center Summer is upon us, and everyone is busy in and around the house. Protecting your eyes from injury is one of the most basic strategies to keep your vision healthy throughout your life. You may be somewhat aware of the possible risks of eye injuries, but are you taking the easiest step of all to prevent 90% of those injuries: wearing the proper protective eyewear? If you are not taking this step, you are not alone. According to a national survey by the American Academy of Ophthalmology, only 35% of respondents said they always wear protective eyewear when performing home repairs or maintenance; even fewer do so while playing sports. Eye Injury Facts and Myths Men are more likely to sustain an eye injury than women. Most people believe that eye injuries are most common on the job — especially in the course of work at factories and construction sites. But, in fact, nearly half (44.7%) of all eye injuries occurred in the home. More than 40% of eye injuries are caused by projects and activities such as home repairs, yard work, cleaning and cooking. More than a third (34.2%) of injuries in the home occurred in living areas such as the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, living or family room. More than 40% of eye injuries every year are related to sports or recreational activities. Eyes can be damaged by sun exposure, not just chemicals, dust or objects. Among all eye injuries, more than 78% were in people not wearing eyewear at the time of injury. Of those reported to be wearing eyewear of some sort at the time of injury (including glasses or contact lenses), only 5.3% were wearing safety or sports glasses. You might think that the family home is a fairly unthreatening setting. However, medical statistics tell a different story: nearly half of all eye injuries each year occur in and around the home, and homebased injuries are increasing each year. This alarming trend is why the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American
Society of Ocular Trauma now recommend that every household have at least one pair of ANSI-approved protective eyewear for use during projects and activities that may present risk of injury. Common Eye Injury Risks in the House: • Using hazardous products and chemicals such as oven cleaner and bleach for cleaning and other chores (accidents involving common household products cause 125,000 eye injuries each year). • Cooking foods can that can splatter hot grease or oil. • Opening champagne bottles during a celebration. • Drilling or hammering screws or nails into walls or hard surfaces like brick or cement; the screws or nails can become projectiles, or fragments can come off the surface. • Using hot objects such as curling irons around the face; inadvertent contact with the user’s eyes can cause serious injury. • Loose rugs and railings or other hazards that could cause falls or slips. Common Injury Risks in the Yard: • Mowing the lawn. • Using a power trimmer or edger. • Clipping hedges and bushes. Common Eye Injury Risks in the Garage or Workshop: • Using tools (power or hand). • Working with solvents or other chemicals. • Any task that can produce fragments, dust particles or other eye irritants. • Securing equipment or loads with bungee cords. For all of these activities, it’s important to remember that bystanders also face significant risk and should take precautions against eye injuries, too. This is particularly important for children who watch their parents perform routine chores in and around the home. Bystanders should wear eye protection, too or leave the area where the chore is being done. Preventing Eye Injuries at Home Wearing protective eyewear will prevent 90% of eye injuries, so make sure that your home has
at least one approved pair and that you and your family members wear the eyewear when risks come into play. There will still be occasions when accidents and injuries happen. Consider taking some of these safety steps around the home to diminish the risks even more: • Read the labels of chemicals and cleaners carefully, and don’t mix products. • Secure rugs and railings. • Cushion sharp corners and edges of furnishings and home fixtures if you have children or the elderly in your house. • Check the lawn or the outdoor area where you will be working for debris that can become a projectile. • Keep your tools in good condition; damaged tools should be repaired or replaced. • Make sure that all spray nozzles are directed away from you. • Use grease shields on frying pans to protect from splattering. Our center and ophthalmologists have state of the art equipment to diagnose and treat many eye problems, including eye injuries. Learn how to recognize an eye injury and get appropriate care if you or a family member is injured at home, even if you think the injury is trivial. We are now able to better understand and manage these problems and continue our mission to provide world class eye care for the entire family.

KP Boys Tennis Hopes for Kelly-Rex Title By Christopher Tremblay Staff Sports Writer After holding the KelleyRex Division Championship of the Hockomock League for two straight seasons, Mansfield knocked King Philip (13-5 overall and 11-5 in the Hock) out of the top spot last season. This year the Warriors boys’ tennis team is looking to take back its title, but Coach Laurie Puddester knows it’s not going to be an easy venture. “All seven of our starters from last year were seniors, so this sea-
m
son it’s going to be an entirely new lineup on all five courts,” the KP Coach said. “Our goal once again is to recapture the KelleyRex, but the league is going to be strong throughout so it’s going to be tough.” Having such a solid division from top to bottom, KP is going to have to take things one step at a time. As they try to climb back to the top of the Hockomock mountain, the Warriors will be lead by Polish exchange student Michal Kozuchowski in the number one

singles position. It hasn’t been easy going thus far for the exchange student as he has not been able to take the court on a regular basis thus far. “Michal has been sick and has played in only one match so far (a three set win over North Attleboro’s top player),” Puddester said. “He has played tennis before but on clay courts. He’ll give his opponents a different look using a variety of tennis strokes, but he has had to make adjustments to play on hard courts.” Freshman Cole Ginter will primarily square off at second singles, but has had to make the jump into the number one spot during Kozuchowski’s absence on two occasions. The freshman has held his own at first singles going 1-1 where he lost a close 3-2 match. According to the Coach, it’s only the second time that she has started a freshman at this level. Ginter has a lot of tournament experience and has shown that he is a solid all-around player.
Junior co-captain and threeyear player Garrett Schneider is currently holding down the third singles position. Although third singles is Schneider’s for the time being, who knows what the future holds. First singles has produced three different tandems in three matches thus far this season. While there have been just as many pairings as there have been matches, senior co-captain Ed Washington has been the only steady piece. Washington has paired with Justin Rohan (his latest partner), Schneider and Ryan Gemelli. “Ed has been the staple having played with three different partners. He has been the key to our first doubles team’s success,” the Coach said. “In addition to being named the team’s most improved last year, he’s really easy to play with and definitely compatible with the different players.” Washington’s leadership skills have led the first doubles team to a 2-1 record with victories over
North Attleboro and Attleboro while falling to perennial powerhouse Sharon. Puddester has been lucky enough in the early goings to have a relatively deep bench giving her the ability to switch up the second doubles team with whoever is playing better prior to the match. In the mix to play at second doubles are juniors Ben Smith and Ronit Singh and sophomores Gemelli and Sam Collela. “I have the luxury of having four solid doubles players,” Puddester said. “So we will take it day by day and see where it falls.” The Warriors have themselves yet another solid team to challenge for the league championship, but unfortunately the competition has moved their game up a notch this season. And although still early, Puddester believes there will be a lot of competitive matches this spring that will go down to the wire with the victor taking it 3-2.

KP Softball Squad Aiming For Tourney Success By Ken Hamwey Staff Sports Writer The King Philip softball team had a 16-4 record last year but was eliminated from tourney play in its opening matchup, bowing to Weymouth after compiling an 11-game winning streak to end the regular season. The Warriors may have been too optimistic or over-confident then but Norm Beauchemin, KP’s third-year coach, firmly believes that several key ingredients for playoff success must be prevalent if his Warriors are to advance deep and be contenders for a sectional or state crown. “Our pitchers need to be healthy, timely hitting is a must and our defense has to be dependable,’’ said Beauchemin whose squad was 12-2 and good enough for a tourney berth. “Things like luck play a role, too. But, team chemistry and bonding are vitally important. You need everyone on the same page. Jelling as the tourney approaches is usually a good thing but last year that wasn’t the case.’’ The Warriors, who have seven starters back from last year, are versatile, can hit for power, play small ball, excel on defense and rely on superb pitching. “We’ve got speed on the bases, too,’’ Beauchemin said. “I also like our experience and depth. One area we can improve on is the left-onbase statistic. We sometimes leave too many runners on base. ’’ If the Warriors’ goal of going deep into the tourney is to bear fruit, then its pitching has to continue as its prime strength. Junior Kali Magane (10-1), senior cocaptain Renee Poirier (1-0) and sophomore Jen Hutnyan (1-1) are the key starters. “Kali mixes her pitches well,’’ said Beauchemin. “She threw a perfect game against Attleboro and has had a no-hitter and four one-hitters. Her control is excellent (8 shutouts and 132 strikeouts in 71 innings) and her best pitches are her fastball, drop, change-up and screw ball. Renee is a power hurler with good control of her fastball and change-up, and Jen relies on a drop, good location and control.’’ The KP infield has lots of versatility with interchangeable parts.
Division, it’ll make nine consecutive times that the Warriors have achieved that objective. Beauchemin is convinced that games against teams in a highly-competitive Hockomock League is good test and a gauge for success in the tourney. “Teams in the Hockomock League, especially the KellyRex Division, are strong from top to bottom,’’ he said. “Anyone can upset you on any given day.’’
Poirier will play first base when she’s not pitching, Magane patrols second when mound duties aren’t on the agenda, junior Ashley Hession plays shortstop and Jen Hutnyan will spend more time at third than on the mound. Senior co-captain Casey Hutnyan has played first, second and third base. Junior Caeli Bench is available at first, third and also behind the plate or on the mound and junior Molly O’Brien is another solid infield reserve. “Poirier is a solid hitter (.500 batting average) and fielder,’’ Beauchemin said. “She had two homers in her first seven at-bats. Magane was our No. 1 hitter last
year at .450. Hession is a tremendous fielder. She’s got a strong arm and great range. Jen Hutnyan has power (4 home runs and 13 RBIs) and makes solid contact and Casey Hutnyan is scrappy and gets her share of walks. Caeli can play anywhere. She’s a power hitter (.500 batting average) and a good fielder. Molly is a reserve infielder who is steady at bat.’’ Senior Melissa DiPhilippo is KP’s catcher. A first-year starter, she works hard. “Melissa improves every day and she’s solid on defense,’’ Beauchemin said. “She’s got good instincts. Her onbase percentage is .400.’’ The Warriors outfielders are
fast, possess strong arms and can hit. Senior Maddie O’Gryzek plays left, junior Christa Wagner patrols center and senior Brianna Sebio is in right field. “Maddie is a three-year starter who has a strong arm, runs the bases well and makes contact as a hitter,’’ said Beauchemin. “Christa is exceptionally fast and relies on a strong arm. She’s a quality contact hitter. Brianna is another threeyear starter. She reads the ball off the bat well, has a strong arm and is a tremendous hitter (.550 batting average and no strikeouts in 51 atbats). She had two 4-for-4 games in our first six outings.’’ If KP wins the Kelly-Rex
Beauchemin points to his squad’s 13-0 victory over nonleague foe Coyle-Cassidy as an early key for the Warriors. “We lost two straight, to Taunton and Bishop Feehan,’’ he recalled. “Shutting out Coyle-Cassidy was big because it stopped a losing streak and got us on track again.’’ KP’s tourney future looks good but Beauchemin is convinced that team chemistry is the key — even more important than peaking at the right time. “I don’t care if the players like the coach,’’ he said. “As long as they like each other.’’

revenue they earn in Wrentham to fund Wrentham Cable Access as a gift to the community. There are no additional costs associated with residents’ bills. Through association with these two cable providers, residents who are not subscribers may still use the tools that WCAC offers. WCAC does not actually produce any of the programming it airs. The shows come from residents. Frank Whitehead, the Executive Director of Wrentham Cable Access, says that WCAC is there, “to allow residents to realize their visions.” The studio is able to provide those aspiring to create their own shows with assistance in planning, set design, equipment training, or personnel who can assist with taping in order to bring the program to life. There is hardly any limit on what a resident might produce. “If they’re interested in bowling they can do a show about bowling. If they’re interested in art they can create a show teaching someone to draw,” says Whitehead. Frank Whitehead first volunteered at Wrentham Cable Access in 1992. Since then he has not
only created programs himself, but now manages all aspects of the station’s operations from scheduling programs to teaching classes. Residents can attend classes at the cable station on topics in filming, video editing, the use of Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, and more. These classes are usually determined at the beginning of any given month, but individuals can contact WCAC for one-onone sessions in order to suit their learning styles or their schedules. Whitehead recalls one particular instance where he assisted a man in creating a memorial video for his late daughter. “We helped him clean up the photos and create a beautiful montage so people coming in could see her.” Wrentham Cable Access also airs bulletins in between their usual programs across their channels. These bulletins can be of general interest, notices of government meetings, community groups and organizations, school notices, or information for senior citizens. Any resident representing an organization, club, or committee can request a bulletin so long as it follows WCAC’s policies.
More than just cable, WCAC has the most extensive community events calendar posted on their website. “It’s really quite amazing,” says Whitehead. The community calendar is powered by Google, so any resident with an Android device may get the calendar to their phone or tablet. The calendar includes everything, including notices that might not be posted in a bulletin on one of the channels. Residents can find out about events from swim meets to church meetings. Wrentham residents can purchase copies of many of the station’s programs, such as sporting events or government meetings, on VHS or DVD. WCAC can also assist residents in converting home videos into a DVD format. WCAC serves to provide all media assistance that the community could need. WCAC is the entity that maintains the equipment and ensures the channel runs smoothly, but without the community and residents there would be no Cable 8; Wrentham decides what it should be.

What to Do If You Haven’t Filed an Income Tax Return 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.
Filing a past due return may not be as difficult as you think. 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
Payment Options - Ways to Make a Payment There are several different ways to make a payment on 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 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 shortterm 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 late-payment 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. • A user fee will also be charged if the installment agreement is approved. The fee, normally $105, is reduced
Host Families Needed for Summer Exchange Students By Grace Allen Norfolk resident Ross Gilleland is hoping to place several exchange students with local families this summer. Working with the Chicago-based non-profit group CCI (formerly called the Center for Cultural Interchange), Gilleland is trying to find homes for students who want to experience life in the Boston area. According to Gilleland, these students just want to be part of an American family and have no expectations beyond a safe environment, three meals a day, and their own bed. CCI will provide $75 a week to help offset costs. Families with no children, younger children and empty nesters all make great hosts, says Gilleland. Gilleland, the advisor for the KP International Club, has helped facilitate both short and long-term placements since 2012. The parent of a former
and current KP student, Gilleland says the school administration has been very supportive of his efforts. In addition to the summer placements, Gilleland is looking for host families for the next school year. For more information about hosting, contact him at 508-431-4191 or rossgilleland@yahoo.com. The following students are looking for a summer host family: Gaia M. – A 17-year-old from Italy, Gaia is requesting a host family with a teenager. She enjoys watching movies, hanging out with friends, sports, aerobics, photography, and swimming. She needs housing from June 14 to July 11. Beatrice G. – An 18-yearold from Italy, Beatrice enjoys sports, cooking, going on walks, and movies. She needs housing from June 21 to July 25.
Teresa P. – A 17-year-old from Italy, Teresa likes playing the saxophone, hiking, and tourism. She is requesting a family with a teenager and will need housing from June 14 to July 12. Andrea L. – A 15-year-old male from Italy, Andrea enjoys playing the piano, rowing, and music. He is also requesting a home with a teenager and will be here from August 2 to August 22. Jules D. – A 16-year-old male from France, Jules likes soccer, football, and tennis. He needs housing from July 5 to August 2. Julien B. – A 20-year-old male from Belgium, Julien enjoys fitness, swimming, and hanging out with friends. He needs housing from July 5 to August 2.
to $52 if taxpayers agree to make their monthly payments electronically through electronic funds withdrawal. The fee is $43 for eligible low-and-moderate-income taxpayers. What Will Happen If You Don’t File Your Past Due Return or Contact the IRS It’s important to understand the ramifications of not filing a past due return and the steps that the IRS will take. Taxpayers who continue to not file a required return and fail to respond to IRS requests for a return may be considered for a variety of enforcement actions. If you haven’t filed a tax return yet, please contact us. We’re here to help!

Time for Some Financial “Spring Cleaning” We’ve arrived at spring, the time when many people spruce up their homes, yards and other parts of their surroundings. This year, why not extend that practice a little further and give your financial and investment environment a good “spring cleaning”? Here are a few suggestions for doing just that: Reduce duplication. If you’ve ever worked to “de-clutter” your home, you may have discovered a lot of extraneous items. Did you really need three blenders? Did you have more remote control devices than you did televisions? As you look through your investment
portfolio, you might also find some duplication, perhaps in the form of multiple stocks of companies in the same industry. You might want to consider whether you’d be better off by reducing this concentration and using the proceeds to broaden your investment mix to create new potential for growth, income or a combination of both. Repair your “roof.” As part of your exterior spring-cleaning efforts, you might examine your roof to determine if you need to repair or replace any torn or missing shingles. After all, a strong roof is essential to protecting your

home. And your financial foundation needs protection, too — so, review your life and disability insurance to ensure they are still adequate to meet your family’s needs. You also might want to consult with a financial professional for ways of dealing with the potentially devastating costs of an extended nursing home stay or another type of long-term care. Plant some “seeds.” Spring is a good time for re-seeding parts of your lawn that may be bare. Once you’ve planted the seeds, of course, you’ll need to water and fertilize them to encourage growth. As you look over your financial landscape, you may also find areas that are somewhat barren. For example, you might be adequately funding your own retirement goals through your em-
ployer-sponsored retirement plan and other investments, but are you putting away enough money for your children’s college education? If not, you might need to “plant some seeds” for potential growth by investing in a college savings account, such as a 529 plan. And you may need to continually “nourish” your plan by contributing money each year. Update your “furnishings.” When you bought and arranged your home’s furnishings, they might have been perfectly suited for your needs. But now, many years later, your situation may be quite different. Perhaps you’ve said goodbye to grown children who have struck out on their own, so you might want to make new uses for old rooms. And maybe your old “stuff” just isn’t as com-
fortable as it was before, or the layout of your furniture isn’t as efficient. Whatever the case, it may well be time to update your environment. And the same thing can happen with your financial “house.” To reflect changes in your family situation, employment, economic circumstances, retirement goals and other factors, you will need to periodically review your financial strategy and your investment portfolio, and make adjustments as needed. Tidying up your living space may help improve your overall outlook on life. The same might be said of a financial spring cleaning — and you won’t even need a mop.

The King Phillip Grade 7 Girls A Team was recently crowned state champions at the Massachusetts State Championship Tournament of Champions. The team was the number one ranked 7th grade girls team in the entire Metro West Basketball League (a league of 84 seventhgrade girls teams). They finished the regular season as the Division I South District Champions with a record of 10 wins vs. 2 losses. Next, the team reached the Division I finals of the Metro West tournament before losing a hard fought contest against Walpole. Based on their outstanding regular and post-season success, the players and coaches were invited to play in the Massachusetts State Championship Tournament of Champions at Mass Premier. Once again, the girls played in Division I against some of the top competition in the state. In the preliminary round, King Phillip defeated Franklin and a team from Pentucket which hadn’t lost in over 45 games. The team then advanced to the “Gold” winners’ bracket of the tournament where they defeated a talented team from Groton-Dunstable. After defeating all of the top teams from Mas-

Franklin, Bellingham & Wrentham Relay at KP 6-12/13 By J.D. O’Gara The Relay For Life of Franklin, Bellingham and Wrentham will take place on Friday, June 12 this year, and it is happening at the King Philip Regional High School, at 201 Franklin Street in Wrentham. The event, in which relay teams keep members walking all night to point out “cancer never sleeps,” raises money for the American Cancer Society. It will begin at 6 p.m., and the night will include additional opportunities for the public to donate. According to American Cancer Society’s Event Coordinator Mike O’Brien, as of mid-May, 386 members of 53 teams had signed up for this region’s relay, and the total raised at that time was over $22,000. “We raised $107,000 last year, even though it rained throughout most of the event,” says Christine Walsh, who has participated for four years and is once again one of the organizers, along with Bridget Rymanowski. Walsh’s mother and family friends have been touched by cancer, but she points out, “it’s not a death sentence, anymore.” Teams camp out at the track, bringing their own food. Each year, several traditional ceremonies take place at the Relay for Life. The event will begin at 6 p.m. with an opening ceremony, followed by a Survivor lap at 6:45, which will lead into a Survivor Reception at 7 p.m. Another feature of the night will be the luminaria lap. “That’s at 9 p.m. on Friday night,” says Walsh. “Bags line the track dedicated to survivors, people fighting cancer, and those lost to cancer. It’s one silent lap to remember everyone we’ve lost.” The night features a number of
fun laps as well, and the theme this year is movies. “Teams have asked me and designated a movie for their team – we have Despicable Me, Frozen, Grease, and so we’ll have a lap where we celebrate their movie theme. We also have laps for American Pride lap, Holidays, Decades, Superheroes,” she says, as well as a “Miss Relay,” lap in which boys dress in drag. The night includes a DJ, and other entertainment coming this year includes a 7 a.m. Zumba class and possibly America’s Best

Defense and yoga, says Walsh. “I also have a dance company coming – Feet in Motion,” she says. Mix 104.1 will also be present, with an ice cream truck. “We’ll be having the survivor reception inside KP this year,” says Walsh. “They’re letting us use their field house.” Walsh says that several local businesses donate for this reception. “In the past, we’ve had the Commonwealth Barbecue in Wrentham, Café Asisi, and the Rome Restaurant in Franklin,” she says. This year, Walsh says, registration for the Relay for Life is completely free. “You don’t have to sign up for a team,” she says, but it was more of a hassle for American Cancer Society to keep track of it. They
think we’ll get a greater amount of people in.” Teams, she says, also fundraise at their campsites, and walkers get lap beads for each lap they take. The event is open to the public all night, but those under 18 need to have a chaperone after 11 p.m. King Philip, says O’Brien, “have been absolute fantastic hosts as far as helping us promote the event and getting kids involved and logistically has worked well with us.” He points out that the school actually sought him out to hold the event. “It’s been amazing – KP has been great,” says Walsh, “they’ve gotten anything we needed, and their principal encouraged each of the student groups to have a Relay team.” Each participant that raises
