've always believed that Worcester sits apart from other Northeastern cities due largely to its eclectic nature. In fact, if you add up the amount of times I've written “eclectic” in various articles over the years, you could probably ﬁll this magazine twice through. Still, the city exhales individuality and is unique in that each small group within the greater community works together to form a more impactful whole. This week's cover story takes a look inside one such community – one that created the Worcide DIY skatepark. There have been some hurdles along the way, and there are more to come, but the community as a whole has stood behind the work, hosting fundraisers on behalf of the Worcide crew. The future of the skatepark is uncertain at best, but given the opportunity, Worcide has the potential to become a huge part of the legacy of our city.

Bravehearts get down to the business of baseball in Worcester

STEVEN KING

Walter Bird Jr.

he Worcester Bravehearts have been taking care of business on the field, putting together a 9-3 start to their inaugural campaign in the Futures Collegiate Baseball League (FCBL) going into a game Wednesday night, June 18. From the looks of it, the entire organization is taking care of business quite nicely since reeling off an undefeated start six games into the 2014 season - the Bravehearts’ first with the four-year-old FCBL. There is reason to believe that will continue - and we are not just talking baseball business. With plans to host the national team from Taiwan in July, Bravehearts ownership is in talks with the Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce, Worcester State University and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Boston about tying that visit in with an international business summit right here in Worcester. The Bravehearts are running on all cylinders as they do battle in a league that could not be much more different than the CanAm League, for which the now-defunct Worcester Tornadoes toiled on the same ball field where the Bravehearts now play in white and blue. The six-game winning streak that started the season was a good start. And setting up a visit from a Taiwanese baseball team to Worcester will not look too shabby on the resume, either. It does not mean the

team will do what the Tornadoes did, and win a championship in their first season. It does not mean there will be no glitches here and there - like learning how to properly roll out a tarp to protect the infield from rain, or making sure the right music is being played in between innings and at-bats. The early returns are in, however, and they are overwhelmingly positive. A family that made its bones running a tent rental and catering company - and rented one of its tents to the Tornadoes - is now running the show at Hanover Insurance Park at Fitton Field. The city appears to be getting behind them; the sour aftertaste from the rather inglorious ending to the Tornadoes’ time in Worcester is abating. That, says FCBL Commissioner Chris Hall, is because of the example being set by John Creedon Jr., owner of the Bravehearts, and his family - one he said started from Day 1. “You had the first game, it was raining hard and there’s a giant puddle in the right field,” says Hall, who was at a recent game that saw the Bravehearts fall to the Brockton Rox. “As hard as [the Creedons] work, they were not complaining about it. Everything was done with a smile on their face. It’s like they look forward to the challenge. You’ve got 1,000plus people coming, it’s opening day and to

BUSTED A FISH TO FRY: Police on Thursday, June 12 arrested 37-year-old John Pinard after responding to a call from Price Chopper at 221 Park Ave. at 6:30 p.m. Pinard allegedly attempted to leave the store with approximately $308 worth of shrimp and, when confronted, allegedly rammed the manager with a shopping cart and threatened to stab him with a hypodermic needle. Pinard was charged with assault with a hypodermic needle, armed robbery, larceny over the value of $250 and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (shopping carriage).

have it rain like that. They were like, ‘How do we get things done?’ I’ve been to a couple games. People are having a good time, the entertainment’s good. They’re always trying to get better.” In terms of baseball operations, Hall ranks the Bravehearts a 10 on a scale of 1-10, if for no other reason than the food being served up

by a family that knows a thing or two about feeding people. “I’ll tell you what, they look like one of the most well-fed teams in the league, by far,” Hall says with a laugh. “A lot of teams are fighting with the Creedons on that.” As far as game day operations and on-field performance, Hall puts the Bravehearts at a 9. “Remember,” he says of the Creedons, “these guys have not done baseball before. You would never know by the on-field product. There are some talented kids.” Therein lies the No. 1 attraction for fans - the talent. You can build a ballpark, but if you field it with the Bad News Bears, they most certainly will not come. Hall believes the Bravehearts have perhaps a half-dozen legitimate future Major League Baseball (MLB) draft picks - and he should know, The FCBL had 23 current or former players taken in this year’s MLB draft. Who on the Bravehearts might you see donning a MLB jersey in the not-so-distant future? Hall mentions right-handed pitcher Aaron Civale, Northeastern University player and product of East Windsor, Conn. Civale was on the

A MOTOR VEHICLE MEDDLER: Police on Thursday, June 12 responded to a call on Canterbury Street of a man breaking into a motor vehicle at 2:10 a.m. Upon arrival, the police found two civilians restraining 44-year-old Jose Rosado. Rosado, who allegedly broke into three other vehicles, was found with possession of a wrench, pliers and several electronic items. He was charged with four counts of breaking and entering into a vehicle during the nighttime with intent to commit a felony, possessing a burglarious instrument, receiving stolen property over $250 and willful and malicious destruction of property.

mound for the Bravehearts Tuesday night, June 17 in their comeback win over the Nashua Silver Knights. It was the first of two straight outings to the ballpark for Hanover Insurance employees and their families. Right-handed hurler Aaron Doughty of Greenwood, Ind. is another player turning heads in the early going; ditto outfielder and Hopedale native Ian Strom and infield Darian Ramage of Glendale, Ariz. “Strom is very impressive,” Hall says. “If he continues on the progress he’s on now, in his junior year he’ll hear his name early [in the MLB draft]. That’s a kid that’s got the ability to definitely play at a higher level.” Adam Barrett was suitably impressed with what he was seeing during his first time at a Bravehearts game. A resident of Brookfield who was at the game as part of the Hanover night, was with his girlfriend, Nicole D’Altilio, his parents and his 87-year-old grandfather, Eugene Barrett, who hails from Islip Terrace, NY and now resides in Auburn. “Tonight’s been a good game with good pitching,” Adam Barrett says, adding he used to attend Tornadoes games. “I came and saw Jose Canseco strike out four times once. I think [the Bravehearts] have done a good job. Honestly, I like this. It’s fun and it’s good to see some potential major leaguers.”

As for the business that was enjoying a night out at the park this week - and who is sponsoring the park playing host to the Bravehearts - enthusiasm is running on high about what is going on at the foot of College Hill after a year when no baseball was played there. “We are thrilled that baseball is back in Worcester,” says Patty Eppinger, wife of Hanover Insurance president and CEO Fred Eppinger. “It is a great team, they have great management. This should be a fantastic summer.” The city - both from a business standpoint and fans through the turnstiles - appears to be doing its part to help sew the Bravehearts into the fabric of Worcester baseball. According to General Manager Dave Peterson, the team has averaged over 1,200 fans per home game; that is not bad, but his hopes are higher - in the 1,800 range. The Bravehearts welcomed 2,101 fans Tuesday night, and were hoping for at least that many the following night. There were 2,433 kids in the seats for a recent day game put on for city schools. And while he is not saying just how much revenue the team has pulled in since Opening Day, Creedon says the early ﬁnancial signs are good. “I mean, this is a business,” he says, “so we’ve got to make sure we’re proﬁtable,

and so far so good. We’re on target, we’re certainly pleased with the way things are going.” Hall, too, says his league’s newest entry, and the city it represents, has put its best foot forward - and he singles out one person in particular for his efforts. “[Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce President and CEO] Tim Murray is in the background working,” Hall says of the former lieutenant governor, who is also a member of the advisory board. “He is an utter professional. I have met some really good presidents of chambers of commerce along the way. Nothing disparaging to them, but he is a shining star. What he’s trying to do to help the baseball team through the business community and school community is far and beyond anything I’ve seen from anyone before coming from a city government. He’s a hall of famer, right now. He believes in it. He knows it’s good for the community.” Reach Walter Bird Jr. at 508-7493166, ext. 322 or by email at wbird@ worcestermagazine.com.

Walter Bird Jr.

There is no such thing as the perfect person. He or she simply does not exist. There is, however, very much such a thing as the “right person” and with each passing day and week, City Manager Ed Augustus Jr. is looking more and more like that person. The problem is, the people in charge of hiring a city manager - his bosses on the City Council - have sat on their hands ever since he signed a nine-month contract to replace ex-City Manager Mike O’Brien. The excuses have flowed like so much sewer runoff into Lake Quinsigamond: “He made up his mind.” “We don’t want to put him on the spot.” “It’s not our job to go to him. He needs to come to us.” Really? Once more, let us remind councilors that they are “boss” of the city manager. It is absolutely their job to go to him - about anything that concerns them. And the fact that on Oct. 3 he is scheduled to bolt City Hall and return to the world of academia at the College of the Holy Cross, should most definitely concern them. The Telegram & Gazette’s Nick Kotsopolous pointed out recently how much praise Augustus received after walking into a potential firestorm and, with the seasoned work of a pro, quickly doused the flames before they even broke. That was a meeting on the controversial Tatnuck Square project, which could not have been any more mucked up than it was. And there was Augustus, right out of the gate, apologizing and admitting it was wrong for folks to have been kept out of the loop. Here’s the thing: All but maybe two members of the council have said they want Augustus to stay as manager. Why, then, at every meeting, as the expiration date on his time here draws ever near, do they say nary a word? Because they don’t want to put him on the spot? Augustus is a big man - figuratively and literally. He stood up to Tatnuck Square residents who were ready for a pound of flesh. He crafted a city budget that accomplished the virtually impossible - satisfied the school department. He expanded the highly-popular Wheels to Water program. He decided it was time to reintroduce a cafe to City Hall, even though it pissed off every businessman within a stone’s throw of the building. And, get this, he along with other key city personnel pulled off an almost flawless visit by President Barack Obama to the city - no traffic nightmares, as had been predicted. Only one minor arrest. By all accounts, the President was more than impressed all around with the city and the graduation at which he spoke. If, in fact, they believe Augustus is the right man for the job, it could be interesting to see which councilors have the courage of their convictions.

TWO LOSE OUT ON GOVERNOR: The center of

attention at the 2014 Democratic State Convention in Worcester was the governor’s race, with ﬁve hopefuls vying to be included on the Sept. 9 Primary ballot. Going in, Attorney General Martha Coakley seemed resigned to ﬁnishing second behind Treasurer Steve Grossman, even though she leads him in general polling. Those expectations bore out, as Grossman received 35.2 percent of the votes, while Coakley managed 23.3. What stunned many was the strong Convention showing of Don Berwick, the former administrator of the Centers for Medicate and Medicaid Services (CMS). He almost leapfrogged Coakley into second, with 22.1 percent of the vote. Berwick is polling in the single digits, however, and is not expected to mount a serious challenge at the Primary. Losing out on bids to at least land on the ballot were Juliette Kayyem and Joe Avellone, the latter of whom was Mayor Joe Petty’s pick. Avellone delivered an issues-based speech on opioid addiction, and it did not appear to grab hold of delegates. Grossman, meanwhile promised instate tuition and drivers’ licenses for all immigrants, which went over quite well with the crowd.

NOT THEIR KIND OF PARTY:

US Sen. Ed Markey, after walking away Friday night, June 13 with the endorsement of the Democratic State Convention, took a moment with Worcester Magazine to reflect on the unexpected defeat of Republican Eric Cantor. The House Majority Leader suffered a stunning loss to Tea Party-backed challenger David Brat. It has sent alarms through both the Republican and Democratic parties, in particular because Cantor was seen as an ally to some - if not all - of those in favor of immigration reform. The development puts Republicans in a fine fix, because while some, like Jeb Bush, have pushed to appear more moderate, the Tea Party has rebuffed such candidates. “Reports of the demise of the Tea Party’s influence on the Republican Party were greatly exaggerated,” Markey says. “We learned how powerful the Tea Party is.”

{ worcesteria } MEZCAL-EBRATION: Many restaurants and bars around the DCU Center beneﬁted mightily

from the visit of some 6,000 or so folks to the city for the Democratic State Convention. We don’t have hard numbers (One report pegs the Friday night haul of restaurants and clubs at $1 million), but Niche Hospitality’s Mezcal, a popular Mexican food destination at the foot of the Major Taylor Boulevard Garage, appeared to do mammoth business, especially on day one of the Convention, Friday, June 13. After the Convention convened, folks spilled out onto the streets and made their way to the plethora of after-parties being hosted by candidates and party ofﬁcials. Mezcal remained jammed throughout the night - but despite the high volume of customers, they did not run out of their out-of-this-world guacamole, which was being wolfed down even as employees were clearing tables and stacking up chairs at the end of the night, er, morning.

A CONVENTION RITUAL: There are some among the state Democratic Party who question how blue the blood runs inside Guy Glodis’ veins. One thing is certain, he knows how to throw a party. The one-time state rep, state senator and Worcester County sheriff held court at Ritual on Main Street after the ﬁrst night of the Convention. Business leaders such as Rob Branca were spotted, as was retired Public Works chief Bob Moylan. 17th Worcester District state rep contender, and former At-Large City Councilor Mike Germain was also on the scene, as was Worcester Register of Probate Steve Abraham, who faces a challenge to his seat by Republican Stephanie Kotseas Fattman. Her husband, of course, Republican state Rep. Ryan Fattman of Webster, is running against longtime state Sen. Richard Moore of Uxbridge. While this reporter arrived a bit late, none of those spied inside Ritual were observed enjoying the shot luge set up in the corner. PRICE WARS: We mentioned recently how the city’s Major Taylor Boulevard parking garage started out charging $20 for parking on the day of Barack Obama’s visit to the city. The price was dropped to $10 after it was pointed out to City Hall. Fast-forward to Friday, June 13 with the Democratic State Convention in town. The price for parking was only $5. INTERNET BLACKOUT: So you’re a member of the press covering the historic visit of a

president to the second largest city in New England and after all the pre-entry hoopla of being patted down, waved at by security wands and having your computers, cell phones and other stuff of importance sniffed by dogs - you finally find your way to media row, only to be told there is no Internet connection. Zilch. Nada. Zero. We’re talking media outlets from across state and country - and no Internet access. Apparently, the multi-million-dollar renovation of the DCU Center has not included an upgrade to Internet service. At some point, a Boston Globe scribe started whispering the code, which he says he got from a CNN guy. Obviously, the media hounds dutifully logged on - and you could almost hear the WiFi speeds grind to a halt. Word to the city: That final phase of construction and renovation that is supposed to include a sky bridge from the Hilton Garden Inn to the DCU? Umm, can we get some better WiFi first? Just a suggestion.

DOOR KNOCKS CAN WAIT: Many contenders for state office were inside the DCU Center for the Convention - which, of course, means they were not out knocking on doors and wooing potential voters. There are several interesting races shaping up in Worcester, among them the looming showdown between incumbent Democratic state Rep. Dan Donahue in the 16th Worcester District, and Josh Perro. Both were at the Convention, separated in seats by only a few rows (Donahue appeared to be backing Avellone as governor, while Perro was going with Grossman. Moses Dixon was there and Mike Germain was no doubt bopping around. Doug Belanger was there as well. All three are hoping to replace outgoing Dean of the Delegation John Binienda in the 17th Worcester District. Mary Keefe was there and word was Phil Palmieri was inside the Convention Center. They are headed for a Primary in the 15th Worcester District. One non-candidate of note: John Fresolo was seated near Perro. When this reporter, looking to rest his feet for a few second, unknowingly sat behind him, Fresolo started huffing and puffing, and said: “What are you doing here?” Then he stood up and refused to sit back down. KEEFE CASH: Worcesteria stepped in it recently when it reported that Keefe had just

$4,000 and some change in her campaign account. Palmieri, meanwhile, boasts in excess of $60,000. Well, it always pays to make sure you are reading the right reports when perusing the state Ofﬁce of Campaign and Political Finance website. Turns out Keefe ended last year with $20,925.95 in her war chest. She says that number should now be in excess of $30,000.

he helicopters were the first sign that he was really keeping his promise. They hovered over the city, blades fwap-fwapfwapping, coaxing us out onto our lawns to peer skyward. Only a sitting president, regardless of party affiliation, could stir such excitement in citizens of every age. And make no mistake – no matter how cynical we may be, however skeptical and “Old Yankee” in our inherent distrust of politicians, there was no denying the energy that pulsated throughout the heart of the commonwealth. When word came that President Barack Obama would deliver the commencement address to the 2014 graduating class of Worcester Technical High School, jaws dropped. Those jaws dropped a few inches more when Obama’s motorcade sped through the city streets. I was in the press box when President Clinton and Vice President Gore came to Worcester back in December of 1999, as a heavy-hearted city mourned the loss of six firefighters. Senator Ted Kennedy delivered words of comfort that embraced us: Teddy knew all about loss. I remember weeping through speeches that day. Worcester was not so star struck then; the weight of those deaths kept us from any revelry - we felt special for all the wrong reasons. This time, we were pumped for a celebration. I’m not so jaded that I can’t admit there’s a thrill in pinning a White House press pool badge to my dress. The DCU Center vibrated with anticipation as local news celebs milled about, checking sound and Internet connections. T&G columnist Dianne Williamson and I played it old-school with notepads and pens. DW scouted out a couple of great seats in the section reserved for President Obama’s traveling press corps. Five

minutes later, after our IDs were inspected, we were ousted by a real no-nonsense White House press corps member. She wasn’t smiling at our shenanigans. After a bit, we realized that three seats at the end of that section weren’t reserved, so we waved Clive McFarland down to join us. Apparently we were no threat to security from our vantage point, so we were allowed to stay. Pam Cross from WCVB-TV was holding court a few seats away from us, and I was reminded of that cold-as-hell morning back in ’99, when the press lined up pre-dawn outside the thennamed Centrum. That was when reporter Mike Macklin ate most of the doughnuts provided for the media, and I got a good hard look at Victoria Block at sunrise. This time,

Thank you, Mr. President the only comparable sights were glimpses of Jim Polito and Christina Andrianopoulos. My biggest worry was that the circus atmosphere would detract from the real reason for The Event: WTHS seniors were graduating. My concerns were unwarranted. The Tech kids were so electriﬁed by the presence of the President that their pride and sheer joy outshone any adult on stage. The President returned their affection with a commencement speech totally geared toward happy teens. This was no solemn and dull call to the duties of adulthood. Say what you will about the man – you may not have voted for him, or perhaps you did – twice – and are currently disappointed with his tenure as leader. But damn, Obama

Shhhhhh!

has an infectious grin. The man can make you feel as if in a crowd of 5,000, he knows you are there, listening. That was his gift to the Tech kids, as he stayed and shook the hands of 301 graduates as they received their diplomas. More than a few attendees expressed surprise over my appearance at the ceremony, most likely because in the past I’ve questioned the policies that placed Tech at the top of the heap. For me, there was no question to ponder that day. As an educator, I saw only the faces of kids, young adults ﬁlled with chest-thumping pride and optimism, heading out into the world and feeling good about their chances to conquer it. This time, I left the press box smiling.

WORCIDE

WORCESTER DIY SKATEPARK ASKS FOR CITY SUPPORT By Joshua Lyford with photos by Steven King story starts on page 12

{ coverstory } continued from page 11

Skateboarding can be considered one of the most straightforward representations of American freedom. Grabbing hold of a board, pushing down the street and leaving life’s struggles behind are the things that dreams are made of. The Worcester skateboarding community has taken that concept and run with it, creating one of the city’s best hidden gems: Worcide, a concrete skatepark built in an entirely do-it-yourself fashion. Located between downtown and the Canal District at the end of Washington Street, a dead-end road just behind the popular food and bar area of Green Street, Worcide is an ever-evolving product created seven years ago by a group of dedicated skateboarders who took it upon themselves to transform what was once a wasteland into something positive and sightly, brick by brick. For members of the local skateboarding community, Worcide has made their dreams a reality, while creating something for future generations of skateboarders. The park is the sort of haven that embodies characteristics that represent the skateboarding lifestyle: from the level of sheer fun, to the dedication it takes to elevate a local skateboarding community, to the freedom that comes with the creation of one’s own skatepark. To visit Worcide and soak in all of the DIY ethics it stands for is to glimpse into a world crafted by dedication and hard work, while the overall atmosphere is that of lighthearted fun and friendship. The painstaking attention to detail that has made Worcide a local treasure is simply a labor of love for park builders. The project has been kept quiet over the years, but now, as support for the park grows, garnering attention, there is a fear that it could all be destroyed at any moment.

LAYING THE GROUNDWORK

By deﬁnition, Worcide is a skatepark, but that does little to describe what it has become and what it has provided the skateboarding community and the greater Worcester community at large. The brainchild of a few enthusiastic individuals, the DIY park found its legs in the spring of 2007. At that time, the relatively small area beneath a train bridge at the end of Washington Street was covered in several feet of garbage and utilized mainly for heroin-using junkies to get high. Now, some seven years later, the locale is a destination for skateboarders from all over the Northeast and is set to become

legendary. Adam Kacprzicki and Fletcher Zona, both of Worcester, have spent their lives skateboarding, from the streets and skateparks of New England, to wherever else their cars could take them, they have dedicated their lives to chasing the fun and freedom that skateboarding has always afforded them. They didn’t know it at the time, but a trip to Philadelphia to ﬁnd what sort of skateboarding spots the city had to offer would give way to a much larger and more focused project back home in Worcester. After ﬁnding a concrete jersey barrier that had been propped backwards and covered in cement to form a fun and unique quarter pipe, Kacprzicki and Zona decided then and there that Worcester needed a similar spot for itself. “We skated that spot for hours and we

• JUNE 19, 2014

were just like, ‘Man, Worcester needs one of these,’” Kacprzicki recalls. From this humble beginning began the search for a spot the two could call their own. That spring, they set out to ﬁnd such a place. Crisscrossing Worcester streets with their skateboards across their backs and bikes beneath their feet, Kacprzicki and Zona eventually found the bridge over Washington Street and the neglected space below. They came back with a bag of Quikrete cement and, under the train bridge, made the ﬁrst transitions, laying the groundwork for what would become Worcide as it stands today. “This is our legacy,” says Kacprzicki. “What we are doing is literally set in stone. This could be there for decades, this is our mark on the city. Hopefully what we’ve done will be here long after we’re gone and inspire other people one day.”

During the first few years, progress was slow. With little knowledge of how to build a DIY skatepark, Kacprzicki and Zona had to learn quickly or risk wasting their time on a fruitless pursuit. Issues with less-thandependable contributors and the expense of concrete and other materials were very real. These struggles plagued Worcide for years, until last summer when one local skateboarder would come along and help give the park a renewed purpose and energy. Jamie Dube, of Worcester, has spent his life on a skateboard. He had worked on a similar DIY spot of his own on Kilby Street in Worcester, only for the project to be shut down by local authorities. Undeterred, Dube steeled himself to continue creating, and already familiar with Worcide, set out to help make it the go-to spot for local skateboarders and a destination for others. “This place was halfway there and we wanted to keep going,” says Dube. And of the location, he says, “We just wanted to be under the bridge so we could skate in the rain.” From here, the Worcide project took a more productive turn with concrete pours coming fast and furious. With Dube on board, other contributors stepped up their game, and a renewed interest filled the entire core group who call Worcide home. “Everyone has figured out their job pretty much,” states Zona. “But, without Dube, we just couldn’t do it. He is sort of like our foreman.” With a renewed fervor, everything seemed to change. Last summer alone, a handful of skateboarders that made up the core crew, as well as sometimes dozens of others built roughly five new ramps and were armed with a plan for the future. Members of the crew have a good relationship with each other and while they may not always agree on what they should build, they participate in a sort of rudimentary democracy in deciding what should be established.

For those committed to Worcide, there is no down time. From when the ground thaws in the spring, to the ﬁnal days before the winter freeze, the crew is pouring concrete, forming ramps and working long hours to continue building up the park. Even in the winter months, the crew prepares for warmer weather by building forms to pour with, which are then used to set the transition for quarter pipes or coping, building gutters and doing any of the make-ready work they can to prepare for the building and skating season. The winter also allows for planning which ramps will be most suitable for the location and desirable to skateboarders. Members of the crew build forms, lay rebar (or whatever they they can use to achieve the same result) and pour concrete with their own hands. It became clear early on that while the will was there, along with the manpower to create, the funds needed for materials were less readily available.

decided it was time to get involved, as well. How to fund a project like Worcide was something builders had to learn quickly. Money was being donated, but was not necessarily being allocated effectively. That changed as crew members realized that money is a key factor in making just about any project idea a reality. They began fundraising efforts by organizing punk shows at local venues – three shows in the past year alone helped raise thousands of dollars. Art shows and fundraisers were also held at which donations in the form of cash (going directly toward the purchase of concrete) and bags of Quikrete were accepted. As the local community was stepping up with cash and Quikrete, Colonial Ramp Technologies’ Doug Moore helped out by donating 30 feet of rebar, as well as his own time and building knowledge. Several who build and skate at Worcide work in construction and obtain any job site leftovers they can, including ﬁll. Local skate shop Eastern Boarder has donated money. “That money is being put into the right hands and it’s going where it needs to go, it’s going into concrete,” says Dube. Worcester resident Dan Lasata, a skateboarder for over 25 years, sees the positive potential in DIY parks like Worcide. “Every time I’ve gone there, there is no

garbage, it’s always swept, and there is always something being worked on to make it better,” Lasata says. In support of these efforts, Lasata will hold “Rollin’ – an Art Show for Skateboarding in Worcester” at Eastern Boarder skate shop this Saturday, June 21, from 6-10 p.m. Lasata’s goal is to get more kids interested in skateboarding and the Worcester DIY park. Rollin’ will raise money by way of a silent auction with 50 percent of proceeds going toward building complete skateboards for underprivileged youth in the area, and the remaining 50 percent going toward material for Worcide. “You have a skater-built park that is maintained, and it’s been a positive addition to the downtown area, driving out the druggies and transients. We wanted to make sure those guys were supported,” Lasata says. The event will showcase artwork by artists hailing from the Worcester area, including Scott Boilard, and from as far away as New Hampshire and Florida with art by Jasmyn Ali and Chad Cardoza, respectively. “Skating to me is just a part of who I am,” says Lasata. “We all go through phases in life. Skating is the one thing that’s always stayed around. Whether it’s bombing a hill or just rolling around doing pop shuvits, it always feels like home.”

PART OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD The original reason to build Worcide was

straightforward: To create something skateboarders enjoyed skating, period. As the project gains momentum, some community members, like Lasata, are ﬁnding other positive outcomes. “We’re cleaning up an alley and you’re not going to have those people, these junkies, shooting dope,” Dube says. “Look at Green Street – you’ve got The Center, Smokestack and The Banner. They all have open windows and patios. No one wants to watch an army of junkies walk by. They had to ﬁnd a new place to go, that has to affect business.” Zona agrees. “It’s one less dangerous place in the city.” Plus, he says, “It gives kids a place to go, it gives us and our friends somewhere to go and something to do.” This fact is not lost on local business owners, many of whom have supported the crew in whatever small ways they can. From bringing water and material, to spreading a good word, a number of businesses are casting a warm light on the DIY park. AMC Demolition, Inc. is one such business. Founded in 1997, the company, which resides directly next door to Worcide, has built a relationship with the crew and considers itself a supporter of the skateboarders’ endeavors. “I think it’s positive,” says Steve Marble, one of the founders of AMC Demolition. “It

{ coverstory } keeps them busy and it’s a lot of work. There are no problems and it’s a good use of the space.” The demolition company, like many of the area businesses, have had issues with breakins and junkies, before the space was put to more positive use. “When we first moved in here, the junkies were everywhere,” Marble remembers. “They just aren’t here anymore. With those guys down here, it keeps the others out of there.” Given the issues of the past, it took awhile for Marble to believe that the group behind Worcide was not just a gang of hooligans unloading trash under the bridge. “The first time they were here I actually called the cops on them,” says Marble with a smile. “People used to come down and just dump trash and I thought that’s what they were doing. The cops told us they were trying to build a park. They’ve been good, no damage. It works out well for us, we’ve had people -try to break in on the weekends (before the park was built) and it’s good to have people down here.” “Back when this first started, the (surrounding) businesses said, ‘Hey, keep an eye out for sketchy stuff,’” says Worcide builder Derrick “D-Ball” Baskowski. “And we said, ‘Yeah, we’ll keep an eye out for you,’ that’s just the neighborly thing to do.”

Ambulance, also located on Washington Street, has provided containers for needle pick up. After signiﬁcant improvements to the once decayed area, local youth have come to appreciate the beneﬁts of the skatepark, says longtime skateboarder and Worcide supporter Brian Jarosz. “There are a lot of underprivileged kids who come around and get to learn, you know?” says Jarosz. “They would have never gotten to do this if this wasn’t here. It helps the whole community.”

GREY AREA Adam Kacprzicki, left and Jamie Dube, right, level the foundation for a concrete quarter pipe at Worcide. Still, it is a lot of work for builders to try and keep the area welcoming. They are constantly cleaning trash dumped by anonymous visitors and the effort to clean up the heroin needles is an ongoing one. According to Kacprzicki, Dube and Zona, junkies have tried to destroy the ramps and steal the metal to sell to scrapyards and take

tools, including an expensive pallet jack. The crew once found an entire bucket of used needles, recalls Zona. The Worcester Regional Environmental Council (REC), taking note of the work being done and the struggles the crew faces, has provided trash bags, a dumpster and man-power to help clean the area. MedStar

With all of the enthusiasm surrounding the Worcester DIY park, there is one roadblock that could greatly inﬂuence the future of the park. That is, the land on which the park is built is not in any way sanctioned by the city. While crew members say the police presence in the area has shown appreciation for the cleanup being done, city government does not acknowledge Worcide’s presence. This adds up to a potentially big problem. “It’s a ﬁne line,” says Dube. “This spot was clearly nothing before. This was a place where people came and got high and got drunk, but as long as we don’t blow it, this will keep going and [the police] said they

Adam Kacprzicki skates a quarter ramp he helped build at Worcide

Worcester, the second largest city in New England, only has one skatepark (not counting Worcide). In contrast, many other New England cities – both large and small – have several. There are six skateparks of varying quality a short drive from Providence and many more in Rhode Island. Connecticut is known to have some of the most well built and unique skateparks in the Northeast in such a concentrated area, that an afternoon’s drive can yield a half dozen concrete parks. Worcester’s lone skatepark is less than ideally located in Green Hill Park and the layout is not exactly exemplary; its design leaves a lot to be desired.

{ coverstory } don’t have to come scrape junkies out of here anymore. Even if the city has to come down and they have to send someone in to look at everything, that’s fine. We just want this to be a legitimate thing and know that it’s going to be here.” Currently, the don’t-ask-don’t-tell policy works well for builders, area businesses and seemingly police officer patrolling the neighborhood, but with the amount of man hours and out-of-pocket expenses poured into the site, the crew is hoping for straightforward answers from city officials. They have reached out to the city on several occasions in an attempt to legitimize the park, but were met with little response. Meghan McGee lives in Worcester and acts as an unofficial spokeswoman for the DIY project. She corresponded via email with CSX representative Leslie Scherr back in March of 2013 and City of Worcester Assessor Bill Ford in November of that year. McGee was met with conflicting answers: Ford stating that the property belongs to CSX and Scherr stating that the company only has an easement to cross the road, no power over the property itself. The line of communication fizzled after these initial emails, leading to more questions. A police officer, who did not wish to be named in this story, told the builders to keep the spot as under the radar as possible. But, with community support and planned fundraisers, those involved just want to know what will come of their efforts. “We want to know, I want to find out now instead of later,” says Dube of the fate of Worcide. “I want someone to look at this and tell us that we have a problem or that it’s cool. I want to find out now instead of later, I want to know what’s going to come of it.” Part of the issue is that the area under the bridge is, quite literally, a grey area. A Google search shows the location as a barren grey zone under a CSX railroad bridge. The city of Worcester and the CSX company seem unable to establish who has control of the property and while CSX remains quiet on the matter, it has been willing to take several steps toward allowing the park to flourish. The train conductors will stop and wave at the crew, and the company – during a bridge reconstruction project two years ago – reinforced the bridge with massive stone walls, built right up to the edge of an existing ramp with fences around the sides. Considering the size and scope of the remodel, CSX could have easily put an end to the skateboarders’ endeavors. The city’s Department of Public Works and Parks also seems diligent not to interfere with what has been built. During snow cleanup, the DPW&P has been known to plow snow to just outside of the park, but not within, and has not taken the measure of pushing jersey barriers at the entrance of the park to the back, which would make use of the property impossible. Still, at this stage of the game, the crew is all too conscious of the Sword of Damocles

dangling above their heads. “It’s a gamble, you are constantly on a double-edged sword,” says skateboarder and Worcide contributor Ed Debari. “Are you gonna throw money at this and lose it or are you gonna make it legit and have more to skate?”

best: build ramps on a shoe-string budget, turning an underused parcel of the city into a recreational mecca. “This place is an actual skater’s perspective on what they want to ride,” says Kacprzicki. “This isn’t a company coming in and designing what the town tells them to without getting input from the scene. Even in certain parts of the country, people skate a different way. With a DIY spot, it’s up to the scene to decide what works for them.” DIY parks exist all across the country at different levels of legitimacy. FDR in Philadelphia, Pa. and Burnside in Portland, Ore. are probably the most well-known and established DIY skateparks in the United States, but other parks have been built up by their local community and have made an

incredible name for themselves. Washington Street in San Diego, Calif. is a mind-blowing project, organized by the skating community, that has successfully made the jump up to being officially recognized, forming a nonprofit operating with official land use permits and insurance. These parks offer inspiration for Worcester skateboarders, many of whom have traveled the country and seen these spots for themselves, soaking in the hard-earned lessons of building something for yourself. Worcide has the potential to join the ranks given time and resources. “Everyone is doing this all over the country, there are so many new places popping up everywhere now,” says Jarosz. While all these parks share similar attributes – each residing under bridges and each created by the respective cities’ skateboarding communities – each has its own feel and layout. Worcide utilizes the quintessential New England feature, cobblestones, that once made up Washington Street. The flat bottom between ramps are rough cobblestone that once crisscrossed all of early Northeastern cities. They are now smooth with concrete, but the aesthetic and feel remains. “I love the cobblestones,” says Kacprzicki. “That is such a New England thing and it is so smooth … you don’t usually get to skate on cobblestones.” Only time will tell what is to come of the Worcide DIY skatepark, but the enthusiasm and community support for, and the fun being had at Worcide cannot be denied. Given the opportunity, the crew wants nothing more than to keep Worcester’s skateboarding community safe and sound, while providing something ambitious and unique for skaters to utilize for decades to come. “It’s great to be down there,” says Zona of the park. “It’s great to go down there and see my friends have a great time and to see little kids having a great time. Just to know that you are doing something that you love to do and everyone enjoys it. I mean, we’ve been there for seven years, from when you couldn’t even see the back of the bridge, but that is the most satisfying feeling. It has had a huge impact on all of us.” “I think it’s basic human tendency to create,” adds Baskowski. “Whether that’s art or a sky scraper or a skatepark, I think we all want to leave our mark on society.” You can keep up with everything going on with the Worcide crew at facebook.com/ worcide.worcester or on Instagram @Worcide_diy. If you skateboard, or appreciate those that do and the work that goes into the construction of a place as unique as this, head down to Washington Street and see what is happening for yourself. Be sure to swing by “Rollin’ - an Art Show for Skateboarding in Worcester” at Eastern Boarder, 358 Shrewsbury St., Worcester, on Saturday, June 21, from 6-10 p.m.

NOLA Jazz & Blues Festival continued from page 19

All it takes is one man to move mountains, or just to get things done on a large scale. One person’s energy can really stir things up. Such is the case with Paul, or “Paulie,” Collyer, creator and founder of the annual Paulie’s NOLA Jazz & Blues Festival, right here in Worcester, Mass. In its seventh year, this year’s festival, complete with live musical performances and food and beverage vendors, will take place Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 20-22.

When it comes to musicians featured as part of this year’s lineup, Collyer says, “I hate to call any of them headliners, because every one of them is a top act.” Among the biggest names on the slate are pianist Marcia Ball, Buckwheat Zydeco and the return of George Porter Jr. & Runnin’ Pardners. Hosting Marcia Ball, who has been nominated for ﬁve Grammys throughout her illustrious career, is a real coup for Collyer. “She is one of the top in the business, and we’re very lucky to have her.” As for Buckwheat Zydeco, Collyer tried to get the group to perform at last year’s

festival, but Stanley Dural, Jr., whose stage name is Buckwheat Zydeco, was ﬁghting throat cancer. Now he is in remission and back on the road. Being the only zydeco act to ever win a Grammy, Collyer enthusiastically says, “We’re very happy to have [Buckwheat Zydeco] for the ﬁrst time.” George Porter Jr. is one of Collyer’s personal favorites. “The nicest guy in the world,” he declares. “He chats with everybody, and you know, takes pictures with everybody, yet the guy is music history.” Porter Jr. is a founding member of the legendary Meters, and he has worked with the ultimate music royalty, including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. Worcester’s version of the NOLA Jazz & Blue Festival has in past years been held off Chandler Street, however, this year the event moves to the city’s Canal District, at the corner of Greet and Harding streets, next to Kelley Square. Other festivals, including stART on the Street, have utilized this location. Collyer says he made the decision to move the festival based on practicalities, noting the Pleasant Street location did not afford him enough room to take care of all the essentials, including portable toilets having to be set up outside of the immediate area, across one of the side streets. Plus, as Collyer says, “The Canal district is starting to become synonymous with entertainment in the city. I think this is part of the evolution of that whole area down there.” The festival will have an enter-exit policy, allowing guests to experience all the Canal District has to off, Collyer says. “We want people to go out and enjoy the foods in the neighborhood,” he says. Friday night’s lineup includes Roomful of Blues, Mem Shannon and the Membership, plus 14-year-old guitar phenom Bobby Paltauf and his band. Saturday will bring in Big Al Carson and the Blues Masters, Billy Iuso and the Restless Natives, The Honey Island Swamp Band, Eric Lindell & the Sunliners, along with Porter Jr. and Ball. Local performer Big John Short will be a special guest throughout the weekend. Others performing as part of this year’s musical lineup include horn player Glen

David Andrews, who happens to be a cousin of Trombone Shorty and will hit the stage on Sunday. “Glen David is just astronomical,” gushes Collyer, and says in addition to his performance, Andrews asked him to have pink ribbons in support of breast cancer awareness. For the past few years, Andrews has been one of the closing acts at the New Orleans Jazz and Blues Festival. As Collyer put it, “You just don’t close out that fest unless you’re big stuff.” Andrews performs on Sunday, along with Buckwheat Zydeco. Sunday’s slate also includes Big Chief Juan Pardo and the Golden Comanches. Another ﬁrst-timer, they really personify the New Orleans culture, with the traditional garb and sound of their home city. Little Freddy King, supplying a dose of guitar blues to the lineup, will also perform on the last day of the festival. He has “really cool lineage,” says Collyer. “His cousin is Lightnin’ Hopkins!” Rounding out the Sunday lineup is a group of UConn students called the Funky Dawgz Brass Band. A bundle of ﬁery energy, these young men capture the sound of the “second line” bands of New Orleans, and funkify that sound to a new level. Lately, they have been performing with Andrews, according to Collyer. Paulie says he was purposefully looking for a deeper New Orleans sound this year. He wanted “a lot of horns…a lot of old New Orleans songs. “It had been very guitar heavy the last couple of years. Sunday especially is going to be a real New Orleans afternoon,” says Collyer, promising that for those who have yet to travel south, “You’re going to feel like you’re in New Orleans.” Don’t miss this year’s Paulie’s NOLA Jazz & Blues Festival on Friday, June 20 beginning at 6 p.m.; Saturday, June 21 beginning at 11 a.m.; and Sunday, June 22 beginning at 11 a.m. at the corner of Green and Harding streets. Tickets are available at the event and at brownpapertickets.com and are priced as follows: $20 for Friday night only, $30 for a one-day pass good for Saturday or Sunday, $50 for a two-day pass good for Friday and Saturday or Friday and Sunday, $60 for a twoday pass good for Saturday and Sunday, $80 for an all-weekend pass.

Remembering Where We Came From Chelsey Pan

of the trials and tribulations gay people have historically faced in their fight for equal rights, as well as a celebration of life and the inherent differences in all of us, highlighting the dichotomy between “how amazing and magical life is, and how oppressive we can be to each other.” Cadwell remarks that in this regard, the rainbow flag is really a flag for all people, in that “it is about being the full spectrum of who we are.” Cadwell has previously performed “Wild and Precious” exclusively in Boston and adjacent towns. Ashley Emerson Gilbert, a founding member of Airspray Worcester, attended one of his shows and found herself riveted by the story, after which the group contacted Worcester Pride about bringing the show to Worcester. Worcester Pride, an organization dedicated to working with the community and increasing visibility for LGBTQ members in Worcester, had been searching for an adequate event to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Stonewall. They contacted the Worcester Historical Museum regarding a

“It wasn’t a smooth coming out, it was more of a blasting out,” describes Steve Cadwell of his experience coming out as a gay man in the early ’70s. During a period of intense societal and legal oppression, Cadwell describes homosexuality as “the love that dare not speak its name.” Forty years later, the rainbow ﬂag is impossible to ignore.

In honor of LGBTQ pride month and the 45th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, an event widely regarded as the catalyst for the Gay Rights movement, Airspray Worcester and Worcester Pride will present, in conjunction with the Worcester Historical Museum, Cadwell’s theatrical memoir, “Wild and Precious.” The event will coincide with the ﬁrst year anniversary of the Supreme Court ruling that rendered the ban on same-

sex marriages unconstitutional. “Wild and Precious” follows Cadwell’s life from growing up in idyllic rural Vermont to coming out as a gay man during a period of signiﬁcant societal oppression and becoming an active member of the Gay Liberation movement, ultimately ﬁnding love and his own happy ending. Along the way, this theatrical memoir recounts major

events in the LGBTQ history of the second half of the 20th century such as Stonewall, the early AIDS epidemic and the 2004 decision legalizing same-sex marriage in Massachusetts, grounding it in his individual struggles with sexuality and self-identity, all while attempting to answer the question: “What does it mean to be a man?” His performance serves as both a reminder

Upon hearing about this show, Peter Bacchiocchi, Worcester Pride vice president, remarked that â&#x20AC;&#x153;we just thought it was a great and ďŹ tting way to bring together the community to celebrate what really is an important event.â&#x20AC;? The importance of community is echoed amongst each group involved in the event, as well as in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild and Precious.â&#x20AC;? The second act of Cadwellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance demonstrates the recognition that in spite of each personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s individual turmoil, no one is alone in that. This performance is also intended to bring together three diverse city groups and align gay and straight people alike in one broad, community-embracing and story-sharing night. Cadwell describes the show as â&#x20AC;&#x153;like sitting next to each other on an airplane and really getting to hear anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you are a member of the LGBTQ community or you know someone or have a close friend or relative that is, then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll deďŹ nitely touch your heart. You can deďŹ nitely identify with the struggle that he went through, becoming the person that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become today,â&#x20AC;? says Bacchiocchi. The three Worcester organizations are collectively cosponsoring the show, providing lights and other materials in order to allow

Cadwell to perform his theatrical memoir for free. This will be Cadwellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst performance in Worcester, and while the show is open to the public at no cost, the museum will be soliciting donations of upwards of $5, proceeds of which will go entirely to Worcester Pride to fund their upcoming 39th annual Pride Parade. The museum is also currently requesting donations of photographs, documents and other paraphernalia relating to the LGBTQ community to add to the museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archive of LGBTQ history, which was established in the early â&#x20AC;&#x2122;90s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild and Preciousâ&#x20AC;? encourages people to remember that their own personal stories are an important part in understanding LGBTQ culture and history,â&#x20AC;? remarks Chad Sirois, Communications Manager for the Worcester Historical Museum, who encourages individuals to make appointments to record their own personal oral histories, as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you want to go on a little trip Thursday night, come to the show!â&#x20AC;? says Cadwell. See a performance of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild and Preciousâ&#x20AC;? at 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 26, in the Worcester Historical Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fletcher Auditorium, 30 Elm St. Worcester.

Evolution through color

Opened June 18, the Worcester Art Museum presents its newest exhibit, “Abstractions in Blue: Works From the Wise Collection.” This exhibition is featured in the museum’s Japanese Gallery and showcases artwork generously donated to the institution by Joanne and Douglas Wise of Grantham, NH, who traveled extensively in Japan and lived in Tokyo for four years from 1978-1982. On display through January 2015, “Abstractions in Blue” exposes visitors to an array of

contemporary Japanese artistic concepts through the showcase of 10 different works created between 1973 and 1996.

Although each work is separate and distinct, the thread that links each of the 10 contemporary pieces in this exhibit together is the incorporation of blue tones and hues in each work. These colors are surprisingly different than the traditional “Japanese palette,” which typically features numerous shades of reds, yellows, oranges and blacks. “Abstraction in Blue” explores the evolution of Japanese contemporary art through the use of color and a variety of media. These 10 works were created by nine Japanese artists with varying levels of professional training and varying shades of Western inﬂuence. While some of the artists traveled and trained in the United States and Europe, others formally attended art school in Japan. These different experiences have allowed each individual piece to reﬂect a varying level of

cultural experiences. These include a shift from traditional Japanese artistic manifestation in the form of printmaking and calligraphy, to boundarypushing expressions of cultural commentary that incorporate ceramics, fabrics and watercolors, among others. “‘Abstractions in Blue’ invites active learning about the works’ art historical context, but also provides the chance for a meditative, Morioka, Kansuke, Japanese, born 1941, 82 - 5N, 1982, reflective viewing A.P, photo serigraph, 17.75 x 23.75 inches (image), experience in which 21.5 x 29 inches (sheet), Gift of Kansuke Morioka via one can consider the aesthetic harmony of The Wise Collection, 2011 these powerful works,” the exhibit.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Jumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the shark Jim Keogh

Of all the ďŹ lm genres that work least well as sequels, comedy leads the pack, and as a subset, â&#x20AC;&#x153;bromancesâ&#x20AC;? are the most problematic. Just consider recent history, which includes the likes of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anchorman 2: The Legend Continuesâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hangoverâ&#x20AC;? follow-ups, none of which came close to the inspired lunacy of the originals. Most comedy sequels are the equivalent of a guy with Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s telling the same joke over and over because somewhere in the dusty recesses of his brain he recalls that it once got a laugh.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;22 Jump Streetâ&#x20AC;? is another limping attempt to extend the race one more lap. It does OK; there are laughs. Jonah Hill being drafted into a slam poetry contest and then improvising an ode to slam poetry is hilariously meta. And nobody plays stupidwith-a-wink quite like Channing Tatum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;22 Jump Streetâ&#x20AC;? has a good time at its own expense, playfully acknowledging its retread roots with a sly self-awareness. If the movie was an hour long, all of the above would be sufďŹ cient. Yet at nearly two hours, â&#x20AC;&#x153;22 Jump Streetâ&#x20AC;? struggles to ďŹ nd fresh material in its premise of undercover cops Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) posing as students to bust a school-based drug dealer. In 2012â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;21 Jump Streetâ&#x20AC;? the boys went back to high school. Here, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve graduated to college to catch whoeverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peddling a deadly new drug on campus. Jenko tears it up as a football star and popular frat brother; Schmidt is forced to hang with the emo bunch, which at least lands him in the welcoming bed of a gorgeous art student named Maya (Amber Hill). Only in a bro-dominated industry could someone legitimately conceive a scenario where Jonah Hill hooks up with a Beyonce look-a-like. (Granted, it does set up a clever visual of Hillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s walk-of-shame across the quad the following morning.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;22 Jump Streetâ&#x20AC;? is most interested in the evolving friendship between Schmidt and Jenko, overplaying the gay-subtext jokiness to the point of distraction. We get it. Schmidt feels betrayed by Jenkoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friendship with the school quarterback and sulks like a spurned lover. Jenko suggests an arrangement that sounds suspiciously like an open marriage, even if the only pumping heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually doing

with the quarterback involves iron. Every bit in the ďŹ lm seems overlong by half. Jillian Bell (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Workaholicsâ&#x20AC;?) has some fun as a tart-tongued student who points out that the cops are clearly older than their fellow students, but does so in a never-ending series of hit-or-miss lines. Ice Cube, reprising his role as Schmidt and Jenkoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commanding ofďŹ cer, seems bored with his own perpetual outrage over their antics. The boys get high,

Five Loaves Bakery

Five Loaves: Simply delicious Michael Brazell

Quietly the small town Spencer, Mass., just 20 minutes from Worcester, has built up a cadre of terriﬁc restaurants, and Five Loaves at 13 Mechanic St. is yet another gem. With a focused menu of reasonably priced entrees, delicious desserts and a half-dozen small plates, the restaurant excels in every facet of a meal.

Dining on a Thursday night, Lillian and I called in and made early reservations as the restaurant recommends on its website. We were sat right away by a friendly hostess and immediately fell in love with the décor; Five

WORCESTERMAGAZINE.COM

Loaves feels as though you have stepped into someone’s home, as the tiny dining room has barely a dozen tables, with home decorations adorning each wall making the interior feel cozy, unique and never kitsch. Our server, Phillipe, brought out a basket of fresh bread and butter and explained each of the items on the menu in grave detail. Five Loaves changes its menu weekly, with only about six or seven dinner entrees in a given week. Lillian and I started with an order of the roasted red bell pepper hummus ($7), a rich, creamy and deep crimson-colored hummus made without tahini sauce, that had a tremendous texture to it. It was an excellent start to the meal, though we would have liked more bread crisps to accompany the dish as we quickly exhausted the six or so that we started with. Lillian debated between two items on the dinner menu, a caramelized onion, bacon and smoked gouda mac and cheese ($16) that sounded sublime, and the black skillet bistro steak with port wine garlic butter ($18). She settled on the bistro steak and was not disappointed, as a perfectly-cooked charred steak, with some pink in the middle, arrived atop a bed of whipped mashed potatoes and grilled veggie medley. The

seasoned cut of beef was delightfully marbleized and the reduced port wine sauce was deliciously rich. Similarly, I had a hard time deciding between the coffee rubbed pork tenderloin, served with an apple-fennel slaw ($18), and a glazed meatloaf ($15), but Phillipe led me in the right direction, encouraging me to give in and order the meatloaf. I still thank him for urging me in that direction, as two thick slices of barbeque glazed, baconwrapped meatloaf with a decadent pan gravy drizzled on top were simply delicious. Also served with both whipped potatoes and mixed vegetable (and extra $3 for both sides, though worth it as the potatoes were light and creamy, while the grilled squash and zucchini were the right foils for my meat-heavy dish), the meal was ﬁlling but not overbearing, just the right size. I was fearful of a meat overload when I heard “bacon wrapped meatloaf,” but the bacon was more the consistency of a slim prosciutto than necessarily a thick slab of bacon, which blended perfectly into a seasoned meatloaf slice that instantly

{ dining}

transported me right back to my grandmother’s kitchen. Lillian and I were well fed but not stuffed, so we both ordered dessert, a specialty for Five Loaves because it sun lights as a specialty bakery during the day. My bread pudding with sweet raspberry sauce and a heavy dollop of whipped cream was delicious, and Lillian’s slice of ﬂourless chocolate cake was a chocolate lovers dream. Prices at Five Loaves are beyond reasonable. Dining on a Thursday, we were pleased to ﬁnd that our order of hummus — and all items on the small plate menu — are included with the order of two entrees. Given that the restaurant is BYOB and sits across the street from a local liquor store, diners need not worry about dropping coin on alcohol either. In total, our bill came to just over $50, with a meal that could have very easily cost twice that. Having left with full stomachs and a fat wallet, we have put Five Loaves on our short list for favorite local restaurants outside of Worcester.

erryvale Vineyards in California MERRYVALE.COM has been owned by the Schlatter family since 1983. It is housed in the first winery constructed after prohibition in Napa Valley. Like most wine-making families, the goal is to produce great wine vintage after vintage. Production is carried out in a state-of-the-art solar-driven facility that produces wines that are environmentally-friendly, a selling point these days. The Merryvale label includes three wines of special note: the famed Merryvale Profile, Silhouette Chardonnay and the Napa Cabernet. These are premium wines that have consistently garnered praise. The winery also produces fine bottlings of chardonnay, merlot and pinot noir. I recently tasted the 2010 Napa Cabernet and the 2012 Starmont (Merryvale’s second label) Chardonnay. The Napa Cabernet is a blend of cabernet, merlot, malbec and cabernet Franc. Deep purple in color, this wine has blackberry, plum and vanilla flavors and a long, persistent finish. This wine is still very young so decanting is advisable. Foods that pair well include meat dishes. The 2012 Starmont Chardonnay from the Carneros region is a pricefriendly, everyday white that can be enjoyed with food or on its own. The wine is a vibrant gold with apple, mandarin and pear flavors. It is medium-bodied with good acidity and a clean finish. It retails for about $20. So what’s the secret to building a successful winery that has spanned over three decades? First, it’s dedication to quality and innovation. OF THE WEEK Merryvale’s philosophy is to create elegant wines in a Barefoot Cellars, European style by using sustainably-grown fruit and winemaking techniques that ensure excellence.

Do you have a favorite restaurant in Worcester? I have not been out yet because our games end so late. After games we will get a nice spread from the concession stand. The owner is a caterer so we are treated pretty well. Where is your favorite place to be at Fitton Field? I like to be in the dugout, next to everyone. I am in the zone when I am on the bench with my glove on my knee next to my teammates. It keeps me focused and ready to pitch. What do you do in your off time? I love being around baseball. I go to [my host family’s son’s] games a lot. I also love giving back to younger kids. When you are my age, they really look up to you. What are your feelings on Jake the Lion? I love Jake; he is great. He always seems to be doing something crazy to excite the fans. When he sees us he always gives us high-ﬁves, so I enjoy seeing him. What are your plans for after college? I would love to keep playing baseball. I hope that someone gives me a chance to keep playing. -Anthony Rentsch ($10 for Fruitlands Museum members). 7:15-8:30 p.m. Fruitlands Museum, 102 Prospect Hill Road, Harvard. 978-897-9969 or concordband.org.

CLASS IT UP!

What symbolizes the kickoff to summer for you? Is it the opening of your pool? The last day of your child’s school year? Or is it the dragging out of the patio furniture? For me, it’s when I see my neighbors out and about! I have the best neighbors a person could ask for and it’s the funniest thing that I rarely run into them outside during the cooler months. However, I know it’s definitely summer when I see them almost every single day. And, especially, when I am invited over to sit and chat and have a beverage on their patio furniture. There really is nothing like sitting, sharing and laughing with some really good people on a warm summer evening. I also look forward to seeing their grandchildren’s chalk drawings on the driveway. The colorfully drawn flowers and houses make me smile. Have you had your kickoff to summer? Are you planning any parties? We have a couple of great suppliers in this week’s Special Events Directory. How about getting that flower garden in shape or your pool? We have many qualified providers for that too! Whatever it is that you need, we have the service providers for it! Please do check them out and when you utilize them please do let them know that you saw them here. Enjoy your summer kickoff! Always grateful…. Keep It Classy!

Keep it Legal

Paul Harter A hypnotist, DJ, investigator and ordained minister, Paul Harter has pretty much done it all. His parents both performers, his mother having traveled with the Rockettes and his father once a musician with Les Brown’s Band of Renown, Harter began performing, himself, at the age of 2, singing “Alvin Wants a Hula hoop.” He did impressions, Frankie Fontaine from the Jackie Gleason Show, then Jerry Lewis and all of his characters. Destined to perform, Harter loves a good audience. He will host a Vegas-style hypnotism show at The Lucky Dog Music Hall on Thursday, June 19, from 7-10 p.m.

You are a hypnotist, magician, DJ, karaoke host and entertainer. What is it about working with a live audience that keeps you coming back? Getting someone to be amazed, astonished, to smile, to laugh. To be able to take them away from everything that’s made them feel bad that day.

Hypnotist, that’s not a real common occupation. How do you become a hypnotist? I actually came into it backwards. Both of my parents died from smoking. I wanted to do something about it, to get people to stop smoking. I was talking to a friend of mine, Dr. Renkie, a psychiatrist in the city, who suggested that I become a hypnotist. I was intrigued and bought every book I could find to teach myself and when that didn’t work I went to school for 18 months, got my certification as a clinical hypnotist. I was always intrigued with Pat Collins the “Hip Hypnotist.” I watched his shows on Showtime. I was a DJ at the Oxford Tavern, they were looking for something different so I suggested a hypnosis show. I’d been doing it for friends and relatives at get-togethers and parties so I made it big and official and did my first show.

How do you hypnotize someone? Can everyone be hypnotized? What you see on TV and in the movies is a fallacy. The swinging pocket watch, the twirling eyes, it’s not real. The most effective hypnosis is called instant induction and that’s what I’ve studied and that’s what I’ve perfected. I can usually put a person under in less than a minute, sometimes 20 or 30 seconds is all I need. Everyone can be hypnotized, everyone goes under at different levels. People that say they can’t be hypnotized hit a stage of hypnosis every time they sleep, you have to have

a good night sleep. You get hypnotized every night, sweetheart. The way you go under is called an anchor. “Stare at my nose,” that one focal point is an anchor. In my shows I use seven to 10 anchors and people don’t even know it. There are 350 different anchors that you can use if you name them all one-by-one. There are multitudes of ways that people can go under. You create a dichotomy, you frustrate the analytical side and you let the creative side come out. As soon as that happens you’re under.

Can things can go wrong? Yes, if you’re not trained and you don’t know what your doing. There are three different types of personalities that can violently show up under hypnosis session. I had it happen to me at one show. This guy’s trigger was chair and I said “OK everyone’s going to sit back in their chair” and this guy went crazy, he got up picked up his chair and threw it across the stage, he was yelling and screaming. I held the show for about a half an hour, I had to put him deep, deep, deep under, bring him back out, bring him back out, bring him back out. When I knew he was not in a psychotic state, I had security get him the hell out. Then, we started the show again. People come to my show and think they know how to do it but they don’t see how I take them out. People come out individually. Some people take longer to come out, some people come out very quickly. Just because you see what I do doesn’t mean you can go home and do it.

Tell us about your Vegas days? I love Vegas, wish I were there. Under contract I can’t play anywhere on the strip, so I don’t. I had a very bad agent, he was a good agent until he wanted to quit and quit

with as much money as he could. He took it out of us performers. There were 27 different acts that he represented, all for Board Gaming. When they took down the Stardust and two other places, everyone that was preforming there, all the bands, all the DJs, everyone that worked for Board Gaming was no longer allowed to work on the strip. We all signed exclusive contracts for eight years, four months into our contracts we were gone, done, not allowed to perform anywhere else on the strip. I started off at the Tropicana then I was at the Boardwalk. A lot of my work was private parties. Which paid better, got me to stay longer.

What’s your best Vegas story? One of them I can’t tell because it involves a lot of naked women. I guess this is the weirdest one. There was a bar where everyone who worked the strip hung out at. I had just ﬁnished doing two shows and my agent found me, asking me if I was ready to go to work. It was 4:30 in the morning. We went to a club, security was tight, all the doors were locked and it turned out to be a private party for an artist formally known as (Prince). His entourage and a lot of Hollywood types showed up, it was his birthday. It seemed like everyone showed up to be seen then left. He’s not a nice guy and not very well liked. I got to meet quite a few people, it was deﬁantly an experience. I’ve never seen anyone take over a club like that where people were asked to leave and the doors were locked.

You investigated the JFK assassination? Yeah I did that for years. I got far enough into it that I got my phone bugged for a short time. There were four people in Massachusetts state government that were part of the investigation. We had a State Police sharp shooter who was brought in by the Warren Commission to try to recreate the shots and he couldn’t do it. There was a medical examiner, he was a skeletal bone fracture specialist and nothing that he did for the Warren Commission was on record because he said, and I’m basically quoting, all the x-rays from the skull fractures indicate a shot from the front. He said it had all the distinguishing marks of a dum dum bullet, which explodes as it hits, which would make everything you see in the Zapruder ﬁlm accurate.

What made you start your investigation? In 1976 I remember watching Geraldo Rivera on “Good Night America” and

STEVEN KING

Two minutes with...

seeing the Zapruder ﬁlm for the ﬁrst time. I started reading Mark Lane’s books, watching “Executive Action,” that movie with Burt Lancaster and that’s what got me started on it. When I was old enough to start looking into things myself, I started to. I started when I was about 20.

What is the Church of Fred? My dad’s name was Fred. Way back when the Internet started going crazy, there was a big fad for $25 you could become a minister and you wouldn’t have to pay taxes. There was a ministry in Massachusetts called the Church of Fred. Once I found out the name, I gave my $25 and became an ordained minister just so I could hang the certiﬁcate on the wall. I thought it was way too coincidental and had to do it for shits and giggles. Later on, a friend who had been coming to my karaoke show for years said he was getting married and asked if I would do his service. I married them right here at the Lucky Dog. The service was strange. They were kinda goth, into having pierced lips and noses and ears and eyelids, pierced everything. I required two things: take to vows seriously regardless if I’m a joke because we were going to sign state papers accordingly, and you have to light a wedding candle to show that you actually mean it. They did but they brought in a candle that was spiked with dead bugs.

What kind of stuff do you have going on in the near future? Right now I’m working at Mike’s Moon Walk Rentals, setting up jobs for Mike and myself. He takes care of all the machine rentals and I take care of all the entertainment. If someone needs a DJ, a hypnotist, a clown or a balloon artist, I’ll take care of that. -Steven King, Writer and Photographer JUNE 19, 2014 • WORCESTERMAGAZINE.COM
