Pembroke Express 12_03_2010

There were less plas-tic bottles left be-hind on the Hobo-

mock soccer fields this season — and even fewer bottles end-ing up in a landfill — thanks to Pembroke Boy Scout Chris Campbell.

For his Eagle project, the 16-year-old Scout built and installed four frames along with recycling bins at the edge of the fields, providing soccer viewers with a proper place to

dispose of their plastic bottles.With the soccer season end-

ing, the frames — built with hinges so they can collapse — will be taken down and stored until warm weather, and soc-cer fans, return. But already Campbell’s project appears to have met its goal.

“People have commented that the fields are cleaner and that there aren’t as many bot-tles left behind,” Chris’ mom, Mary Campbell, said.

Longtime Board of Health member Lisa Cullity took over this week as the town’s new health agent, saying she hopes

to be out in the commu-nity in her new role, ed-ucating resi-dents about public health issues and encouraging recycling.

Cullity, who has served on the Board of Health for 14 years, stepped down from her seat in October, expressing

interest in the recently open health agent position.

Former health agent Fred Leary, who served the town for 17 years, was let go on Oct. 19. He had been on sick leave for almost a year, with Building Department employ-ees, Board of Health members and others filling in while he was absent.

The board received eight applications for the job and in-terviewed all eight candidates, chairman Tom Driscoll said. On Monday, the three-member board unanimously voted to appoint Cullity to the position.

Pembroke Police and Fire responded to two separate mo-tor vehicle crashes within a week at the busy intersection of routes 53 and 139. The inci-dents, although with very dif-ferent sets of circumstances, left business owners with an eerie feeling of coincidence.

Circle Furniture co-owner Harold Tubman said the vi-cinity is well-traveled; how-ever, the area is protected by an edged sidewalk and several poles at the front of his build-

ing. He was both surprised and bewildered by last Wednes-day’s crash when Gail Webb, 56, of Pembroke drove her vehicle into the front of his building, which was refaced less than two years ago.

In meeting with the build-ing inspector, Tubman said he has been told there was struc-tural damage to the front win-dows and the boards below the casings will have to be re-placed. He said it was too ear-ly to tell, but estimates he had

Deck the halls! Tree Lighting is Sunday, Dec. 5, 2:30-5 p.m. on the Town Green

Friday, December 3, 20102 Pembroke Express – Your Hometown Newspaper!

By Mike tropeano, express contriButor

Each year, the Pem-broke Chamber of Commerce’s an-

nual Tree Lighting ceremony on the Town Green continues to grow, becoming one of the largest events of its kind on the South Shore. Committee chairwoman Kathleen Kee-gan and her holiday helpers have prepared a fun-filled af-ternoon of sing-a-longs, story time and cookie decorating. The day also has a serious side, with residents joining the Pembroke Military Sup-port Group to honor members of the military serving world-wide with ties to the commu-nity. Those in attendance also may register for the National Bone Marrow Registry and take advantage of New York Life’s Child ID program. The event is free, with donations welcome to support the event or the Pembroke Food Pantry.

How did you get started in the Pembroke Chamber of Commerce? I have been in Pembroke for 16 years with my husband, who grew up in town, and when I got into real estate about eight years ago, I thought it was a good idea to join.

What is the role of the Chamber? It is to help busi-nesses in our community suc-ceed. The focus is mostly on business-to-business connec-tions, although I like the com-munity work that the group does. I think there is a good balance.

Why is it important to have a town-level organiza-tion? I think the main focus is helping Pembroke. There are other good organizations such as the South Shore Chamber of Commerce, but they have a broader reach and purpose. We are about Pembroke. There are some times we need to expand and partner with a group from Hanover or Marshfield.

What is planned for this year’s tree lighting cer-emony? The event is Sunday, Dec. 5 from 2:30-5 p.m. on the Town Green. There are so many things going on. The day starts with the Military Sup-

port Group placing ribbons on the service tree. Later we will have chili, popcorn, hot dogs, hot chocolate and sweets from Sweet Fordy’s. We will also have hayrides, cookie decorat-ing, story time from the Pem-broke Public Library in the community center and marsh-mallow roasting. The Kiwanis will be selling Christmas trees for their scholarship fundrais-er, with somebody having the chance to win a free Christmas tree. Santa will be flying in on a fire truck to throw the magi-cal switch and meet the kids.

How much work is it to plan an event of this size? This is my third year as chair-person for the event. I have been working with past chair-man PJ Lowe for several years on the event. We started at the end of August. This year has been awesome. We have a group of about 12 people who have been helping prepare. It has been great to have people step up, coming up with good ideas and taking ownership of

each station. What other community

events does the group do? One of my favorite events is the chamber’s Christmas party, which is the Friday be-fore the tree lighting. The cost is $30 and covers dinner and entertainment. This year we are at the Brimstone Tavern and somebody will win a 42-inch television. We also had a softball game this fall, which was against the police and fire departments. We have done some educational events such as having a lunch with the de-velopers of the Center Plaza.

How can somebody join the group? They would start by going to pembroke-chamber.org and click on the membership tab. Our dues are $75 per calendar year. If somebody were to join in De-cember, their membership fee would include this month and all of 2011. The dues support all of our events and the mem-bers’ meetings; we try to meet monthly.

Selectman Greg Hanley asked those designing the land-fill cap to consider ways Pem-broke can reclaim the land in the future, possibly using the land for soccer fields or other recreation.

The board agreed to have project engineers Environ-mental Partners set aside an approximately four-acre sec-tion of land at the site for fu-ture recreational field use. The plan will be submitted to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection for review later this month.

The town is under an ad-ministrative consent order with the state to have the old landfill, which closed in 1989, sealed off by the end of 2011.

Residents at the October special Town Meeting voted to allocate $2.8 million for the project, which will be bor-rowed through a low-interest loan through the state revolv-ing fund.

In his presentation to se-lectmen, project manager Carter Fahy said the landfill shape would remain similar to the way it looks today, plus a three-foot “cap” of light clay, soil and DEP-approved fill ma-terial to seal off the landfill’s contents. Studies have shown the contents are not hazardous.

The town will be able to use street sweepings and other materials currently stored at the Department of Public Works’ Monroe Street gravel pit as fill between a layer of clay and the top layer of loam, Fahy said.

Workers will have to close the access road from Hobo-mock Street to the recycling center for a period of time to cap the land underneath before replacing the road, Fahy said. Engineers are proposing that residents access the recycling

center at that time via a gravel road near the Pembroke High School parking lot on Learn-ing Lane. Work is not set to begin until school has closed for the summer.

Environmental Partners is in the process of completing final design documents and plans to submit them to the DEP by mid December, Fahy said.

“They’re saying they’ll have a one-month review process. We’re expecting the DEP’s approval sometime in January,” he said.

The company also must have a hearing with the Con-servation Commission because of neighboring wetlands.

Fahy said he anticipated awarding a contract for cap construction sometime in Feb-ruary, with work starting in late spring.

After hearing current plans, selectmen talked about the fu-ture of the town-owned land.

Hanley said Pembroke Youth Soccer had been look-ing to build new fields in the Hobomock Street area and said the landfill site could offer an area for that expansion.

“If DEP would allow for

active or passive recreational uses on the land capping, I would assume it would enhance your plan as well as possibly enhance grant opportunities in the project,” Hanley said.

He said he felt the town should have been exploring recreational possibilities from the beginning and that incor-porating plans into the design could have allowed the town to close the landfill and pre-pare for the future for the same amount of money.

Environmental Partners engineer Mark White said lay-ing out a specific field design in the current cap plan would add time and cost to the proj-ect now, but he agreed they could designate three to four acres of level land, possibly near the front of the site, for future field use.

“In our meetings with DEP, we’ve been talking about post-closure uses with them,” White said. “So those options are definitely open.”

Also Monday, selectmen discussed recycling center op-erations with concerned citi-zen Jim McCollum, a member of the disbanded Solid Waste and Recycling Committee.

received were near $50,000 in damages, including inside and outside the building.

Tubman said he was thankful no individuals were on that side of the building at the time of the crash, though Tara Donavan, a designer for the store, was at the desk adja-cent to the gaping hole caused by the vehicle.

Donavan said the sound of the vehicle coming through the wall was loud, startling and caused a great deal of particle board to be thrown into the air, leaving a chalky taste.

“I stayed where I was. I screamed. It was like watch-ing something in slow motion because I saw the ceiling begin to crack as she came into the showroom. Things were flying and it sounded like an explo-sion,” Donavan said. “Then she began to back up once she realized she had come into the building.

“The woman [Webb] ini-tially seemed to be in shock. I tried to ask her if she was OK,” Donavan said. “She did come and sit down. The paramedics transported her later.”

Webb will be summonsed to court, according to Pem-broke Police Lt. Mike Jen-ness. She was charged with OUI liquor, OUI drugs, negli-gent operation of a motor ve-hicle and failure to drive in the right lane.

“Upon interviewing the driver, who was still sitting behind the wheel, officers de-tected an odor on her breath. She stated to officers she was in pain and was subsequently

transported for medical atten-tion to the Jordan Hospital,” Jenness said.

Because of possible inju-ries, she was not arrested at the scene but will be summonsed to answer to the charges.

Less than a week later, on Monday Nov. 29 at 10:57 a.m., a female operator was trans-ported to the hospital follow-ing an accident on Washington Street in which her vehicle overturned.

“A female reported to po-lice she was traveling south on Route 53 in her GMC sport utility vehicle when another vehicle suddenly swerved in front of her,” Jenness said. “The two vehicles collided, resulting in the Dodge truck overturning onto its side in the parking lot in front of Alumni Sports Café.”

Jenness said a medical is-sue caused the driver of the second vehicle to swerve into the southbound lane.

She was taken out of the

truck through the front wind-shield by firefighters at the scene and transported to the hospital. No further informa-tion was released on her con-dition or what type of medical issue she was suffering from.

The driver of the SUV was not seriously injured.

Police are investigating the incident.

Patrick Gibbons, owner of Alumni Sports Café, said that accidents occurring in nearly the same spot and the same time of day were definitely just a coincidence. He headed out-side his building to check on the operators of the vehicles Monday following the crash but said fire personnel had al-ready begun to assist the oper-ators. The Alumni was closed on Wednesday and Thursday because of the holiday, and Gibbons did not know much of the details of the next-door incident.

“It’s never happened be-fore,” Gibbons said.

When ➢ Sarah Morrisey re-ceived a puppy one Christmas, she was delighted. She had been devastated when her previous 15-month-old dog died from arrhythmia. Sarah’s father tried to replace her pet with another white German shepherd puppy, but he was unable to find one. A breeder he talked to in Green-field put him in touch with an-other breeder who was looking for a good home for a 17-month-old white shepherd, a home that would have time to give this dog some attention. And so, an easy-going white German shepherd named Quiz became part of the Morrissey family. Sarah attend-ed training classes in Plymouth with Quiz. This past September, Sarah, 9, entered Quiz in the American White Shepherd As-sociation Show in Greenfield. Quiz became a reserve winner and then earned second place. Quiz helped Sarah earn the title of Best Junior Handler. Quiz weighs 80 pounds, is friendly, well-behaved and loves to play fetch and go for walks. Sarah’s brother, Billy, 11, would like to participate in the K-9 Good Citi-zen Program with Quiz.

Air Force Airman Dylan ➢T. Morse graduated from basic military training at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas. He is the son of John and Jen-nifer Morse and is a 2010 grad-uate of Pembroke High School.

Don’t miss the Hobomock ➢Holiday Extravaganza on Sat-urday, Dec. 4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Hobomock Elementary School. According to Barbara Devine, there will be something for everyone. There will be ven-dors, crafters, a cake walk, a kids shopping area with all items un-

der $10 and gift wrapping avail-able. An assortment of gift bas-kets, all with their own theme, will be raffled off. One of the baskets will be filled with food items and will be donated to the Pembroke Food Pantry. In addi-tion, lunch will be served, and you will have the opportunity to visit with Santa. All proceeds go to the Hobomock PTO for enrichment programs and field trips. For more information, call Barbara at 781-294-9273 or Ka-tie DiNardo at 781-294-7325.

The Pembroke Education ➢Foundation was started in 2003 following budget cuts. Folks around town formed a nonprofit to raise supplemental funds for Pembroke schools by way of grants. On Nov. 15, 18 grants to-taling $13,257 were awarded to support initiatives in the town’s five public schools. To continue with these grants, the foundation is planning its next fundraiser. Casablanca Night will be held March 5 at the Pembroke Coun-try Club. The foundation is look-

ing for volunteers for this event and will train anyone wishing to man the craps, roulette or poker tables. To see how you can help, call Kelly Ross at 781-293-4653 or visit pembrokeeducationfoun-dation.org.

The Pembroke High School ➢boys cross country team won the Division 2 state championship for the second consecutive year. The Titans’ Wesley Gallagher won individual state champ hon-ors after placing first with a time of 14:20 on the 2.9-mile course. Gallagher ran well at the Gard-ner Municipal Golf Course. It took all of Pembroke’s runners to earn the title. Ryan Kelly came in third in 14:27, Bren-dan Adams was sixth in 14:43, and Ryan Moran was 22nd in 15:19. Congratulations to all!

The holiday season is upon us. After Black Friday and Cyber Monday, there will still be

shopping trips to the malls and specialty stores before Christmas. It is a hectic time of year between shopping, deco-rating, cooking and baking. However, I try to make time to do something special during this season for those who are not as fortunate as others. I make sure I send a check off to “Toys for Tots” and I try to participate in as many local causes as possible. If you are trying to get into the true Christmas spirit and are looking for someone to help, you may be interested in the following sug-gestions: The Pembroke Food Pantry is always in need of food and paper products (781-293-4107); the Giving Circle is col-lecting pajamas in both children and adult sizes (781-294-1147); and St. Thecla Parish has a Giving Tree just inside each door of the church with suggestions of gifts they could use and will be delivering to families in need (781-826-9233). And now let’s see what’s going on around town.

Even in a tough economic environment, with a little foresight and creativity, there are many ways you can support worth-while endeavors and gain satisfaction knowing you’ll be able

to contribute for the long term.

Regardless of your income level, you can continue to support your favorite phil-anthropic organizations by donating through life insurance. When you name your chosen charity as the beneficiary of your policy,1 you are contributing to a worthy cause and can benefit from po-tential tax deductions.

There are several methods of gifting life insurance as a charitable donation:

This ben-efits the charity and gives the donor a bonus in the form of income tax benefits. Premiums on such a policy are deduct-ible to taxpayers who itemize their deductions. Consult a tax professional for details.

As policy owner, you retain the right to make changes to the policy including changing the beneficiary. While premium payments are not tax deduct-ible, upon the donor’s death, the estate receives a charitable estate tax deduction for the proceeds, as allowed by law.

If you own a policy with cover-age that is no longer needed, you may consider donating it to a charity. The donor could irrevocably assign or transfer the policy to a charity as owner and beneficiary. This gift is gener-ally not subject to gift tax, and, in most cases, may be eligible for a charitable income tax deduction.

This is a complex planning option for donors with unproductive appreciated assets, such as real estate. This transaction can be structured to benefit the donor, heirs and charity. Consult an attorney or accountant for advice.

HOLA! Nick and Casey Perry recently went on a one-year anniver-sary trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico, where Nick enjoyed reading his Pembroke Express while floating in the pool.



Campbell, who referees Pembroke Youth Soccer games at the fields, said he also has noticed a change.

“Usually the trash cans would be full, but now they’re only about half full by the end of the week,” he said.

Campbell was inspired to build the bins by his dad, James Campbell, a member of the Pembroke Youth Soccer board. His dad was talking with Gary and Paula Parker, who manage the snack bar at the fields, about how much plastic was being thrown away.

“They were expressing a need for recycling bins and that there was a lot of plastic. I needed an Eagle project, so it just worked out, I guess,” Campbell said.

Much of his project in-volved fundraising. Campbell said he needed about $1,000 to buy materials for the frames as well as the blue recycling bins. He held a car wash to raise funds and also received dona-tions from the American Le-gion, friends and family mem-bers and local businesses.

Girl Scout Daisy Troop 80169 also pitched in, donat-ing the proceeds from a lem-onade stand set up at the soc-cer fields to the project.

This summer, Camp-bell and a team of volunteers built, painted and installed the frames with five blue barrels at four locations around the fields. The bins also were lent out for the August Pembroke Arts Festival on the Town Green.

Campbell created a sched-ule for recycling pickup, with the job being shared by both

Boy Scout troops and Pem-broke Youth Soccer.

“I made a schedule for the fall season of this year and the spring season of next year, and then Pembroke Youth Soc-cer is going to pick it up after that,” Campbell said.

Campbell, a sophomore at Cardinal Spellman High School, said working toward Eagle Scout status just felt right.

“It seems like Scouts wouldn’t have had as much purpose as it would with Eagle status,” he said. “It re-ally seems like I have finished Scouts.”

Campbell has completed all his badgework toward the Eagle award and now has to submit paperwork on the proj-ect for council approval. He hopes to have it approved by the end of January.

A soccer player since he was just a Mighty Mite in the Pembroke Youth Soccer pro-gram, Campbell will continue to see the fruits of his labor as he returns each season to ref-eree. He plays soccer for Car-dinal Spellman and also runs track, winning Rookie of the

Year for the 2009-10 winter season. Campbell also enjoys snowboarding and is a mem-ber of Venture Crew 72.

He plans to attend college after graduation and wants to enter the military, possibly working toward a career in military intelligence or com-munications.

Driscoll said Cullity’s re-cord of community involve-ment and interest in starting a recycling education program in the schools were among the reasons she was chosen.

“We also liked the fact that she wants to be out there in the community representing the Board of Health,” Driscoll said. “The Board of Health over the last couple of years has had a rocky time. We’re looking to move beyond that. We want to become a standout board in the town.”

In December 2008, former Board of Health employee Maureen E. Wolter pled guilty to stealing about $28,000 in recycling center receipts and admitted to destroying town record books during an audit of the health department in April 2007.

The board also faced ac-cusations of mismanagement last summer, when then board member Scott MacInnes and clerk Gail McSweeney said they had noticed “discrepan-cies” in office records. The selectmen, town administrator and police chief said at the time they did not feel there was any evidence of wrongdoing. A full audit of the health office was conducted in February 2009.

Cullity, who was on the board when these issues were raised, said she will work to move the office forward and promised to make her records organized and accessible. Ide-ally, she said, if the budget al-lowed, the Board of Health should computerize its records.

“We have over two dozen filing cabinets filled, just in the Board of Health office, of active material — never mind what would be the equivalent upstairs in the attic of at least another 20 file cabinets of ma-terial,” she said. “When that is your method for keeping the information, I can guarantee you at some point something’s going to get lost, mismanaged, misfiled, mislabeled. As health agent, I will keep all my re-cords organized, and they will be on the computer.”

A licensed electrician, Cul-lity became certified in Title 5 septic system regulations through the board. She plans to complete her ServSafe certifi-cation, for food service inspec-tion, this week.

“She’s served on the Board of Health for 14 years, and that says a lot to me. That tells me that she really cares about the town, cares about the resi-dents, cares about our health,” Board of Health member Liz Cytrynowski said. “She’s very knowledgeable as far as a wide range of issues like EEE. She’s worked in the food service in-dustry for years. She knows the codes. She knows Title 5 in and out; in fact, she wrote many of the local upgrades for Title 5 in the town of Pembroke. Lisa re-ally covers the gamut as far as

all the different things a health agent needs to know about.”

Cytrynowski said she was impressed by Cullity’s record of civic service, helping with events such as the annual Tree Lighting and Taste of Pem-broke, and by Cullity’s perfor-mance at Town Meetings.

“I’ve seen Lisa in ac-tion. I’ve seen her at Town Meetings, presenting ar-ticles, arguing for or against articles. She’s well spoken; she’s a great communica-tor,” Cytrynowski said. “She knows the town of Pembroke inside and out. She has a very good rapport with key people in the town that you need to be in constant communication with as the health agent.”

Cytrynowski said she also felt Cullity would help the town fight a project in Brock-ton that seeks to draw drink-ing water from Silver Lake to cool a natural gas power plant. Board members told selectmen Monday night they were very concerned about the issue and planned to be involved as it moves forward.

“[The Brockton power plant project] will affect Sil-ver Lake, Furnace Pond and possibly Oldham Pond — not only the wildlife habitat and recreation on those ponds, but

it also could affect the springs underneath that feed our town wells,” Cytrynowski said. “This, to me, is inconceivable. We can’t let this happen. And I have faith that Lisa Cullity will be instrumental in prevent-ing that from happening to the town of Pembroke.”

Cullity officially started the position Tuesday, though her contract is still being nego-tiated, Driscoll said.

He noted that by hiring Cullity, who has been out of full-time work for about two years, the town could receive a federal tax credit. Under the federal Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act, em-ployers who hire unemployed workers in 2010 may qualify for a 6.2 percent payroll tax incentive, which basically ex-empts them from their share of Social Security taxes on wages paid to these workers.

The pajamas may be deliv-ered to the Jack Conway sales office at 50 Mattakeesett St. on Friday, Dec. 10 from 6-8 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 11 from 10 a.m. to noon. A cookie and punch reception will be held during donation hours.

The Giving Circle, which was created in March by Pem-broke resident Donna Dono-van and four of her friends, has already raised thousands of dollars to benefit the Pembroke Fuel Assistance Fund and the Pembroke Food Pantry. Previ-ous fundraisers have been held at the women’s houses, but Circle member Terri Schreiber suggested going town-wide with their holiday pajama drive. Another member, Donna Frano, manager of Jack Con-way-Pembroke, immediately offered her office as the collec-tion site for the donations.

“Our CEO, Carol Bulman and Chairman Jack Conway are thrilled to have us partici-pate in this event,” said Frano. “I’m hoping my office will be piled high with pajamas.” According to Frano, the Pem-broke Giving Circle came about when a group of “quint-essential soccer moms” missed seeing one another when their children grew up and left for college.

“We really missed getting together for PTO meetings, sports events and dance prac-

tices,” Frano said. “So Donna created the Giving Circle to help us reconnect and do some good for our community at the same time.”

Donovan got her idea for the charitable effort after read-ing about a national movement about 10 years ago in which groups of women put money into a fund and donated it to worthy causes.

“Our Fall Open House was

held in my home, and it raised almost $2,000 for the Pem-broke Fuel Assistance pro-gram,” Donovan said. “Each of our events helps a specific cause within our commu-nity, and then we move on.” For more information on the Pembroke Giving Circle or to donate to the holiday pajama drive, call Donna Frano at 781-294-1147 or e-mail [email protected].

The Pembroke Express is now accepting nominations for the 2010 Citizen of the Year.

The Citizen of the Year is a person who has gone above and beyond the call of duty to serve our town and the larger community. The Citizen of the Year need not be a Pembroke resident if their contributions largely occurred in Pembroke. Conversely, the Citizen of the Year may be a Pembroke resident whose greatest contribution might have occurred outside the town’s border.

Nominees will be accepted through Friday, Dec. 17. We will select three fi-nalists and then choose one Citizen of

the Year from among them. Nominations should include your name, any connection

to the nominee and reasons why this person is special. Please be as specific as you can and include as much information as you know. Your submissions will be kept confidential.

Send all nominations to [email protected] or mail to Pembroke Express, P.O. Box 1656, Duxbury, MA 02331.

I read about the “trash issues” in Pembroke the suggestion of curbside recycling is never mentioned? It would seem to me that this is the best way to increase our town’s percentage of recycling while decreasing

our solid waste tonnage. While, I’ll admit, the newly renovated recycling center looks great, it is not convenient. The conve-nience of curbside recycling would surely encourage more people to recycle.

The Pembroke Public Library will present “Christ-mas Traditions: A Slideshow Discussion About Christmas in America” on Tuesday, Dec.14 at 7 p.m. Christmas traditions evoke a sense of old-fashioned celebrations of church, family and home. Since the Middle Ages when the Holy Family was depict-ed in magnificent oil panels used as altar screens to the present, this celebration of the birth of Jesus has been commemorated in many dif-ferent ways.

In a lavishly illustrated slide lecture, Anthony Sam-marco will outline the his-tory and tradition of how Americans have celebrated Christmas. Once banned

by the Puritans of Massa-chusetts Bay Colony, the early aspects of this tradi-tion began by the Revolu-tion with greens and holly. The 19th-century Christmas tree, introduced by German immigrants, and the first Christmas cards printed by Louis Prang of Roxbury have spawned a tradition that is now part of our cul-ture. This slide lecture traces traditional celebrations, with both history and a wry satir-ical approach to shopping, decorating and celebrating.

The Friends of the Pem-broke Public Library spon-sor this free program. The library is located at 142 Center Street. For informa-tion, call 781-293-6771.

The Pembroke Associa-tion for the Performing Arts will hold its annual silent auc-tion in conjunction with the high school’s winter concerts on Wednesday, Dec. 15 and Thursday, Dec. 16.

At the silent auction, par-ticipants will have the chance to bid on sports memorabilia, restaurant certificates, tickets for sporting events, jewelry, gift cards to local and national store retail stores, golf four-somes to area courses, deco-rative items and more. The

opening bids will start at 25 to 30 percent of the item’s full value, so the savings will be tremendous.

Bidding will begin each night at 6 p.m.; the concerts begin at 7. All bids will close at the end of the intermission during the second evening of performances. Come do some holiday shopping, support the award-winning performing arts programs at Pembroke High School and enjoy holi-day music performed by tal-ented local youth.

Leavitt’s second year as football captain came to an end Thursday when Pembroke played Silver Lake on Thanksgiving. He will spend the winter season play-

ing for the basketball team before finishing his athletic career at Pembroke High School on the tennis court. He shared his thoughts on …

… choosing a college. I’m looking into pharmaceutical science because I want to get my doctorate in pharmacy, so I’ve applied to most of the pharmacy schools around the area. Probably my top schools right now are North-eastern, Mass. College of Pharmacy, UConn and Long Island University.

… becoming a pharmacist. Math and chemistry are two subjects that have always interested me, and I like helping.

… his favorite sport to play. My favorite is probably football. I just like being around the team and I realized now as a senior that it’s a sport I’m not really going to play again, which made this more special.

… his other sports at PHS. I did track my freshman and sophomore years to stay in shape, but I played tennis last year and I’m going to play bas-ketball again this year. I used to play tennis with my dad and grandfather kind of as a joke, but I always liked the sport. Basketball I’ve played since the fifth grade.

… his favorite sports memories. This year, it was definitely the Middleboro and Hanover games when we came back to win and just being in the running for the Pa-triot League championship.

… how he spends his spare time. I just like hanging out with my friends, stuff like that.

… his goals after high school. Actually, I’ve been in-terested in coaching football, so I’ve been looking into do-ing that. Maybe after a couple of years of pharmacy, I might look at being a teacher, too.

The Pembroke boys cross-country team has said all sea-son that their goal was a spot at this year’s Nike Nationals in Portland, Ore.

Mission accomplished. Running as Titans Track

Club, the team finished sec-

ond at the Nike Regional Qualifier at Bowdoin Park in Wappingers Falls, N.Y. to earn an automatic bid to the national race.

It was a really tough goal to have, but it’s been what they’ve wanted all year,” head coach Greg Zopatti said. “It’s unbelievable.”

Ryan Kelley and Wes-ley Gallagher earned second team All-Regional honors with their respective 11th and 12th place finishes, and Bren-dan Adams just missed third team with his 22nd-place fin-ish. JoJo Vercollone returned to form in the race with a big kick in the final mile to fin-ish in the top 60 with captain Ryan Moran and helped keep Pembroke in front of third place Haddonfield Running Club from Haddonfield, N.J. by nearly 40 points.

“JoJo probably ran by at least five guys at the end,” Zopatti said. “All the guys ran hard. They gave 1,000 percent right from the pistol.”

Sixth and seventh runners Johnny Valeri and Jesse Fine also finished in the top 100 for the Titans, who led the race halfway through before top-ranked Christian Broth-ers Academy, also from N.J., charged down the final stretch to win by 47 points.

“In a big race like this, that is pretty close,” Zopatti

said. “The boys maybe came out a little too hard, but they really wanted this and they all ran great. I think we can beat CBA next week.”

The Titans head to Port-land at the end of the week for Nationals, and Zopatti said just because they have reached their goal doesn’t mean they are not going to compete at the National race.

“We don’t want to go all the way there to finish 22nd,” he said. “We are looking to finish in the top 10.”

Silver Lake expected an-other Thanksgiving Day rout of the Titans when they hosted the annual Turkey Day football game this year. After the Lak-ers jumped out to a 22-0 lead, it seemed that would be the case yet again. But the Titans refused to go quietly this year.

Unfortunately for Pem-broke, they were down too much, and Laker quarterback Mitch Graziano was too hard to stop.

The Titans reeled off three straight scores to pull within a point of the Lakers in the third quarter, but Graziano and the Lakers responded with three late scores to hold on and hand the Titans a 42-28 loss.

Down 22-8, the Titans broke out the Wildcat forma-tion with Jon Hooper lined up as quarterback and marched down the field. After a 30-yard run by Hooper, Luke Nagle hit Matt Allen with a pass that put the Titans in the red zone. Two plays later, Hooper rum-bled into the end zone from six yards out to pull the Titans back within a touchdown.

Less than a minute later, Hooper picked off Graziano and ran the ball back 35 yards for a touchdown that drove the Titan fans into a frenzy with their team now down only one point.

Graziano responded by running the Lakers deep in to Pembroke territory, and all but put a dagger in the comeback

on a fourth and 7 from the Ti-tan 11 yard line when he rolled out of the pocket and hit Tyler Llerena in the end zone with 5:28 to go in the third quarter.

On the next Pembroke drive, Laker Tommy Lennon picked off Nagle, and Grazia-no burst through the Titan de-fense for a 25-yard touchdown run that put the Lakers up by two scores with 5:18 left in the game.

The Titans fought back again and came within a touch-down when Hooper ran into the end zone for his fourth touch-down of the game with 1:47 to play. But the Lakers recovered the onside kick and got the first down they needed to run out the clock.

Graziano scored a garbage touchdown in the final minute of the game, but by that point the Titans were out of timeouts and Silver Lake was running down the remaining seconds.

While Graziano got the glory, being named the Lakers’ offensive MVP for the game, Titan head coach Bob Bancroft said it was Silver Lake’s offen-sive line that won the game for them.

“They did a great job blocking for him,” Bancroft said. “We couldn’t really get to him.”

Bancroft added that the fi-nal touchdown was not indica-tive of the second half that his team played and the heart they showed to come back from their early deficit.

“I’m happy with the way we came back,” he said. “We had some great drives, except they started with a 22-point lead. Those first two posses-sions killed us.”

The Titans have both Hooper, who was named their offensive MVP, and defen-sive MVP Dan McCourt com-ing back next season along with Nagle and a large class of sophomores who cut their teeth with the team this sea-son. While Bancroft said it is exciting to have that much tal-ent coming back, he gave the seniors credit for turning the program around this season and keeping the Titans in the game against the Lakers after their early problems.

“They’ve played hard all year, and I think they’ve turned the personality of this team around,” he said. “There is no way last year’s team would have come back from that. “Now, we have to take the next step.”
