Selectmen debate a beverage cart
at North Hill Golf Course
By Susanna Sheehan, Clipper Staff

Is a cart that drives around
the town-owned North Hill
golf course serving beer and
wine to golfers a good idea for
Duxbury?
Two of the three Duxbury
selectmen indicated this week
that they were opposed to this
“beverage cart,” although the
board postponed voting on the

At the age of 9, Innocent
Opwonya was stolen from his
home village in the middle
of the night by Ugandan reb-
els. He was spirited away to a
camp deep within the jungle
with other young boys, where
training consisted of being
shot at with live ammunition
–– those who could dodge
were good enough be made
into soldiers.
“I thought that was the end
of my world,” he said.

North Hill seeks beer cart
continued from page one
erages Control Commission is-
sued a ruling making beverage
carts legal in Massachusetts as
long as they follow the ABCC
guidelines.
The beverage cart would
be used only during leagues
or outings, which are when
groups of golfers, like those
involved in a fundraiser, take
over the entire course for a
certain time period, said John-
son’s attorney Stephen Fol-
lansbee.
The cart, which would also
sell snacks and soft-drinks,
would not be used everyday
or on weekends, said Follans-
bee. It would be restricted to
the course and would not be
allowed on public ways or in
the parking lot. When an out-
ing finished, the cart would
be emptied and put away, he
said.
The driver of the cart
must be TIPS certified, which
means he or she is trained in
the responsible sales, service
and consumption of alcohol.
According to Follansbee,
golf courses in Pembroke and
Quincy have authorized alco-
holic beverage carts and there
is an application pending for
one at the South Shore Coun-
try Club in Hingham.
“North Hill is in compe-
tition with other courses, so
without this cart, the course
will be at a competitive disad-
vantage,” said Follansbee.
Town Counsel Robert
Troy said in considering this
application, selectmen must
to decide whether a beverage
cart would serve the public
and weigh that against the po-
tential liability for the town if
the alcohol was abused and an
accident happened.
An ABCC memo to li-
censing authorities, such as
the town of Duxbury, states:
“Through our efforts together,
we can be sure that each li-
cense serves the public need
Friends of Tarkiln to hold
chocolate and jazz party
Please join The Friends
of Tarkiln for An Evening
of Chocolate and Jazz on
Saturday, April 10 from
6 p.m.-9 p.m. at The Art
Complex Museum, 189 Al-
den St.
Residents are invited
to the ACM to indulge in
chocolate creations by local
caterer Simply Divine, ac-
centuated with champagne
while being inspired by the
creative works of art dis-
played in the museum’s gal-
leries. Listen to the flavorful
musical stylings of the Dick
Raconteur Jazz Trio while
sampling delicious appetiz-
ers and perusing our silent
auction. Many unique items
will be offered, including
beautiful pieces of art by
award-winning local artists
and is operated only in such
a manner so as to protect the
common good.”
Selectman Jon Witten op-
posed the cart: “I think it’s just
a bad idea.”
“It’s a public course and
that raises the standard,” Wit-
ten added. “I’m dubious that
this is in the public’s interest.”
“Since it’s a public course
and our name is on it, we’re
endorsing the action by allow-
ing it,” said Selectmen Chair-
man Betsy Sullivan. “We have
a restaurant there already. I
don’t think it’s the business we
should get into. People don’t
get smarter as they have a few
drinks.”
Witten was troubled by the
idea that children who learn to
play golf at North Hill could
be exposed to the beer cart.
“It’s a public course. Kids are
there all the time,” he said.
According to the ABCC
guidelines, if there is a public
way crossing the golf course,
obvious signs must be posted
stating “no alcoholic bever-
ages permitted beyond this
point” at appropriate locations
in conspicuous places.
Selectman Christopher
Donato noted that neither the
police department nor the di-
rector of inspectional services
commented negatively on the
beverage cart application.
“It’s a nine hole golf course
and I’m not sure how much
you’re going to drink on nine
holes,” said Donato. “Based
on the guidelines given to us
by the ABCC, I’m comfort-
able with this.”
Selectmen postponed their
vote until April 26 because
Troy wanted to notify the court
of Johnson’ application for the
beverage cart.
Currently, the town is in-
volved in litigation with John-
son Turf and Golf, Inc. John-
son, who managed the course
for ten years, sued the town in
2008 after losing the manage-
ment contract to Calm Golf
as well one-of-a-kind hand-
made items and special
weekend trips.
Tickets are $40 each
and all proceeds will sup-
port the restoration of the
1871 Tarkiln Community
Center for its reopening this
summer. Tarkiln has been
named to the National Reg-
ister of Historic Places.
Tickets are on sale now
at Westwinds Bookstore,
Duxbury Wine and Spir-
its, Folk Art Antiques and
Eagles Nest Landscaping/
Hall’s Corner and will be
available at the museum the
night of the event. Tickets
are also available by call-
ing 781 934-0872, or email-
ing Fundraising4Tarkiln@

ferred.
Duxbury Clipper 3
of Rockland. Johnson’s law-
suit claims that Calm Golf is
unqualified and that the town
conspired against him. Johnson
was able to obtain a successful
injunction against the town in
Middlesex County court that
has allowed him to remain in
control of North Hill under the
terms of his last contract.
“By order of the court, he
is allowed to run the course
as it was run under the last
contract,” said Troy. “Are we
meddling with that? We need
to tell the court about this as a
courtesy and give them time to
review and respond.”
Follansbee agreed saying:
“I think this is a valid con-
cern.”
According to the ABCC,
the applicant for a beverage
cart license must provide doc-
umented proof that he has a le-
gal right to occupy the grounds
of the golf course. This per-
mission includes a lease, an
occupancy agreement, a letter
of agreement or a contract.

a new three-year lease between good through 3/30/10

the DSU and the town. For the


past three years, the DSU has
leased the back portion of the
historic building from the town
for one dollar. The DSU pro-
vides after-school programs
for middle and high school stu-
dents. This year it also offered
activities for Alden students
because of the new school start
times.
Town Manager Richard
MacDonald and the DSU rep-
resentatives will work out the
terms of the new lease, which
will include new language
that allows the Post Program
to use the building under the
Student Union’s direction.
This program helps older spe-
cial needs students from Dux-
bury and Marshfield prepare
for the workforce with classes
on socialization skills and job
coaching. The Post Program
pays the Union for the space,
which it occupies before the
schools let out. The DSU has
agreed to give the town a small
percentage of the revenue from
the Post Program to pay for
wear and tear on the building;
the rest will be used to help
offset its expenses.
The Wright building now houses the Duxbury Student Union and the
Duxbury Rural and Historical Society’s archives.
In other business, selectmen:
• Introduced the new man-
ager of buildings and
grounds, Douglas Dondero
of Kingston. Dondero was
raised in Duxbury and his
father served on the Board of
Selectmen many years ago.
Dondero owned a landscap-
ing business in Duxbury in the
mid-eighties and nineties and
he has been involved in land
management for over three
decades. Dondero received a
bachelors of science in nat-
ural resources from UMass
Amherst in 1982.

votes and Friend
Weiler of

down this year after 29 years
running Duxbury’s Town
Meeting.
Hunter has been on the Fi-
nance Committee, Fiscal Ad-
visory Committee and several
other town boards. He also
claims to have only missed
one town meeting in the last
15 years. Weiler is a former se-
lectman, who has also served
on the Finance Committee and
other boards and currently sits
on Fiscal Advisory.
“I really believe that every
registered voter has a right to
speak and should be heard at
Town Meeting,” said Hunter.
However, he believes that
the process can use some tin-
kering.
“We need to do something
to speed up the Town Meeting
process,” he said.

Weiler said he thought
the current system was work-

to make sure citizens were
informed about articles and

started.
“It has served the town

recent fears of “stacking the

of a particular issue get like-

don’t stick around once their

homemade or bakery good-
ies such as cookies, brown-
ies, squares, cupcakes, quick

There is an enormous
need for home-style baked
goods for the spring baskets.
Please consider baking from
scratch or purchasing from
a local supermarket bakery.
These goodies add a personal
touch to the baskets and are
very much appreciated by the
recipients!

financial needs continue to
grow each year. Donations
from residents allow them to
continue to offer assistance to
our less fortunate neighbors.

Fire station, crematory on ballot
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
justin@duxburyclipper.com
The two ballot questions
facing Duxbury voters carry
two starkly different moods
into the polls on Saturday.
One question asks voters
for $2.6 million dollars to re-
place the town’s 30 year old
c r e m a t o r y,
Duxbury
located
Mayflower
in
votes
C e m e t e r y.
Despite be-
ing the more
expensive
of the two debt exclusions on
the ballot, it seems to have
community support because
the crematory brings in over
$600,000 per year for the
town. (A debt exclusion is a
temporary tax override that
comes off the tax rolls when
the project is paid for.)
“I feel that it’s vital for the
town,” said Cemetery Super-
intendent Patricia Pappas. “It’s
overdue.”
Duxbury’s crematory is
the busiest in the state and
with the demand for crema-
tions increasing, as well as
competition from other towns,
proponents say its more vital
than ever to replace the build-
ing.
“It’s a vital part of the busi-
ness,” Pappas said. “You’re
talking about people’s loved
ones.”
Requiem concert benefits scholarship
South Shore Conservatory
presents the Millennium Re-
quiem on April 2, 7:30 p.m, at
the Ellison Center for the Arts
in Duxbury. Proceeds from the
concert benefit the Mary Casey
Stohn Piano Scholarship,
which has been established
to honor the life and work of
Mary C. Stohn.
Mrs. Stohn was a dedicated
Trustee of South Shore Con-
servatory and was instrumen-
tal in the campaign to build the
Ellison Center for the Arts. She
served on the committee that
presented the 1998 premiere
of the Millennium Requiem,
which was composed by her
close friend and piano teacher,
The new building will pro-
vide an updated crematory ––
the current version of which
dosen’t meet safety and other
standards –– and additional of-
fice space.
“It’s going to be updated,
it’s going to be handicapped
accessible,” said Pappas.
The crematory will also
be located in a more desirable
part of the cemetery, allowing
funeral directors to access the
building off Mayflower Street.
Pappas said this will be less
disruptive to mourners.
The second ballot ques-
tion, which seeks $292,000 in
design funds for the fire sta-
tion, is the latest in a series of
proposals that have been ap-
proved at Town Meeting, then
rejected at the ballot box.
Proposals for separate pub-
lic safety stations for police and
fire, as well as a combined sta-
tion, have all been discussed,
tabled, and discussed again. At
Town Meeting, a visibly frus-
trated Fire Chief Kevin Nord
told voters he was “between a
rock and a hard place.”
“This station needs to have
something done,” Nord said on
Tuesday. “We’re spending a lot
of money trying to maintain
something that could be torn
down ... it’s wasted money.”
Nord said that the firefight-
ers do a good job maintaining
the exterior of the building,
Duxbury resident Larence H.
Smith.
The Millennium Requiem
will be performed by Bonnie
Pomfret, soprano, Andrew
Garland, baritone, and Hui-
Min Wang, piano. The pro-
gram also features Mr. Smith’s
composition of Ave Maria,
sung by Beth MacLeod, mez-
zo-soprano, accompanied by
the composer.
Tickets to the concert may
be purchased online at sscmu-
sic.org, by phone at 781-749-
7565, ext. 30, or in person at
South Shore Conservatory. A
wine and cheese reception fol-
lows the concert. Donations to

that a combined police and fire

“For some reason it’s be-
lieved police and fire go out

“It’s incredibly wrong, we
have two distinct missions.
I have more of a relationship
with the water department than
the police department.”
He said that he hopes the
project is approved so the de-
partment can move forward.
“I’m frustrated because I
think people need to make a

Speakers from Invisible Children are surrounded by the members of
the African Service Project, a club at Duxbury High School whose
existence was sparked by the Invisible Children documentary. DHS
students saw clips from the video and heard from a former child
soldier at the PAC Friday morning.
Students hear the
‘Invisible’ stories
continued from page one
years-long civil war drew
children into the ranks as kill-
ers. Scores of children, known
as “night commuters,” would
leave their homes at night and
sleep huddled in bus stops or
community centers to avoid
abduction.
The scene of hundreds of
children crammed into a bus
stop was caught on camera
by three college students from
California who traveled to Af-
rica in 2003, hoping to make a
movie. Their work, “Invisible
Children,” documented the
plight of children in Uganda
trying to survive amid poverty
and war.
A shortened version of the
film was shown to Duxbury
High School students on Fri-
day morning in the Perform-
ing Arts Center. “Invisible
Children” had been shown
previously to Susan Sulli-
van’s class on the Holocaust
and Genocide, and sparked
an interest in students that
eventually blossomed into the
African Service Project. The
project has partnered with
Invisible Children’s fundrais-
ing arm, Schools for School,
and has raised thousands for
schools in Uganda.
“It really is a youth move-
ment,” Sullivan said on Fri-
day.
Innocent eventually ran
away from the rebels, al-
though his first escape attempt
failed and his captors beat him
within an inch of his life to
discourage other boys from
leaving.

country has been ravaged by
Africa’s longest-running war

Selectmen talk finance, vision
continued from page one
other for the open seat made
available by the departure of
one-term selectman Jonathan
Witten, who choose not to seek
re-election.
Zachmann, a 27-year resi-
dent of Duxbury, said he felt
selectmen have not been pro-
active enough in planning for
the town’s financial future. He
called for
more leader-
Duxbury ship from the
selectmen on
votes the issue of
fiscal respon-
sibility, and
cited the section of the Town
Manager Act that outlines the
responsibilities of the select-
men including being “the goal
setting, long range planning
and policy making body of the
town.”
“If selectmen had done
that over the last twenty years,
we wouldn’t be in this pickle,”
Zachmann said. “The Board of
Selectmen didn’t provide the
leadership they should have
all along.”
Dahlen, who has lived in
town since he was eight years
old, believes that Duxbury’s
leadership has been solid. He
said that if elected, he would
like to start a “visioning
group” that meets annually to
chart the town’s future with
the public’s input. He felt the
town should have “an actual
plan” that answers the ques-
tion: “What do you expect to
get for your taxes?”
Dahlen said he felt that un-
der the direction of Town Man-
ager Richard MacDonald and
Finance Director John Mad-
den “the finances of Duxbury
have started on a new track,”
but acknowledged there is
always room for improve-
ment. If elected, Dahlen said
wouldn’t hesitate to question
the budget if he found some-
thing unusual. For example,
Dahlen asked why the police
department needs a snowplow
and a four-wheel drive truck
when the DPW already has
this type of equipment.
Both men felt the town
must move forward carefully
when it comes to proceed-
ing with large capital expen-
ditures, such as a new police
and fire station and new school
buildings.
Zachmann took issue with
the ballot question that will ask
voters to approve a debt exclu-

sion override, or temporary tax
increase, to fund $292,000 for
plans for an updated fire sta-
tion. Instead, he felt that the
town should get serious about
a combined fire and police fa-
cility.
“It only requires basic
common sense to see that a
combined station is less ex-
pensive,” Zachmann said,
adding the idea that there is no
available land on which to lo-
cate one is “ridiculous.”
Dahlen said he was initial-
ly against spending money to
renovate the 1967 fire station
because he believed the town’s
priority should be a new police
station, however, he said after
meeting with Fire Chief Kevin
Nord recently, his views have
changed.
“I really wanted to see the
police station first but the town
needs to do something at the
fire station,” said Dahlen, add-
ing that if residents vote down
this project at Saturday’s elec-
tion, there will be no money
to create plans or do anything
else for twelve more months.
He said he’d be supportive
of a combined station but he is
not in favor of purchasing land
to make this happen because
of the additional expense.
Dahlen said that town
residents must understand that
they share some responsibil-
ity for their rising real estate
taxes.
“We have to control our
own spending,” he said. “We
voted for those overrides [for
capital projects like the reno-
vated pool] that have raised
our taxes.”
Calling the proposed capi-
tal items like a new high school
“budget busters,” Zachmann
said the town must rethink
its wants and needs. He cited
a recent report that stated if
the town does not replace its
schools in the near future, it
will cost Duxbury millions in
repairs to the buildings.
“Doing nothing to the
schools doesn’t cost $75 mil-
lion,” Zachmann said. “Doing
nothing costs nothing.”
Zachmann said the town
wanted and is paying for the
Performing Art Center, but it
is underused and should be
“aggressively managed and
marketed” to bring additional
revenue into the town.
“I would like a real long-
term capital plan, but one that
shows how we’re going to pay

Dahlen said the town

Two seats up for grabs
continued from page one
All four of the candidates
talked about the high quality of
Duxbury Schools, some even
saying the schools were the
reasons they moved to town.
However, all the candidates
saw room for improvement.
“I think
our schools
are at a cross-
Duxbury roads,” said
votes Magnuson.
“I’m running
for School
Committee
because I think our academics
should be on par with our ath-
letics and music programs.”
McLaughlin said she’d
like to see monthly budget re-
ports made public for greater
fiscal accountability.
“Once we have an ap-
proved budget, there should be
no shuffling around,” she said.
“Money that’s allocated should
stay where it’s allocated.”
Brayer, a member of
Duxbury’s Finance Commit-
tee, agreed and noted that the
School Committee only ap-
proved a portion of the school’s
total budget.
“The School Commit-
tee is accountable to you the
tax payer, and it is the School
Committee’s job to hold the
superintendent accountable,”
she said.
Buell said the the district
needs to work on better com-
munication.
“We’re asking a lot of our
students, we’re asking a lot of
our teachers, and we’re really
challenging our taxpayers to
invest in the students and the
teachers,” she said. “People
need to know what they’re in-
vesting in ... The old ways of
communicating and educating
have changed.”
The School Committee
this year has been faced with
a number of hot-button issues,
perhaps the most notable of
which was a split decision to
change the school start times
at DHS, DMS and Alden. The
decision was made by a 3-2
vote, and this election could
shift the balance of power as
Cipolletti and Wong both vot-
ed for the change.
However, all four candi-
dates –– even if they weren’t
happy about the change ––
said they wouldn’t be looking
to reverse the decision unless
compelling evidence surfaced.
McLaughlin defended her-
self against what she called a
rumor that she was running
solely on this issue.
“I have never been against
a later high school start time,”
she said. “I was just against the
process – or the lack of process
– leading up to this issue.”
She noted that a survey of
teachers at all three schools has
been done but that the district
is still waiting on a parent sur-
vey. She was hesitant to say, if
the issue came before her as a
member of the School Com-
mittee, how she would vote.
“That would be hard for

vigilantly assessing the situa-

Brayer also thought it
would be premature to im-
mediately flip the times back.
However, she said the schools
should look at all the data,
including tardy and absentee
numbers in addition to the par-
ent survey.
“We do want keep the stu-
dents first in all of our deci-
sions,” she said. “I wouldn’t
just go ahead and change the
vote, but I would look at all the

The candidates also ad-
dressed the seemingly deep
schism on the current board,
saying that healthy debate is
a good thing –– as long as it
remains respectful.
“It makes for better dis-
cussion of the issues,” said
Brayer.
Buell said that she didn’t
think the numbers of a vote
mattered, and that dissension
was to be expected in any open
debate.
“The important thing is
once the vote is taken that ev-
erybody gets behind the new
policy and supports it,” she
said.
Magnuson offered a simi-
lar thought.
“Regardless of the vote,
whatever the decision is, that’s
the decision by the school
committee. I think the mem-
bers then need to fall behind
and support the policy,” he

association.
I believe I bring practical fiscal and
managerial experience to the job of Library
Trustee. I am currently vice chairman of the
Board of Directors of the New England Cen-
ter for Homeless Veterans. I am past chair-
man of the National Board of Regents, Center
for Leadership Development, US Chamber of
Commerce. I have served as a director of the
Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange
and am the past president of two business as-
sociations: the New England Society of As-
sociation Executives and the National CPA
Societies Executive Association. I am a re-
tired captain in the US Coast Guard Reserve.
These positions have helped me to learn how
to bring disparate individuals and groups to-
gether to work towards a common goal.
Why are you running for Library Trust-
ee?
Our library is the centerpiece of our com-
munity. We have an outstanding staff and a
strategic plan crafted by patrons, staff and
trustees to guide us and give us the vision to
make this a world-class library. The plan is
our benchmark from which to evaluate and
improve library services.
If re-elected, I have three immediate
goals: protect our core services, give our staff
the fiscal resources they need to continue the
outstanding job they do and continue the im-
plementation of the library strategic plan to
the degree possible, given our current fiscal
constraints.
I want to continue to be part of the change
that is taking place in Duxbury and I hope that
you will give me an opportunity to continue
to work on behalf of our town. Please vote on
Saturday, March 27.
Editor’s note: Mr. Flynn was the only un-
opposed candidate to return a statement for
this special supplement. He will be on the bal-
lot with Laura Sullivan. There are two open
seats on the ballot for library trustee.

G
Board of selectmen

D OODRICH
uxbury’s citizens will soon be con-
fronted with demands that we ac-
cept enormous tax increases to pay
for what proponents, including former mem-
bers of the Board of Selectmen, claim to be
essential upgrades to or replacements of build-
ings allegedly already too
deteriorated for continued
use.
Yet we are in this situ-
ation only because the
Duxbury Board of Select-
men 1) failed to ensure
that our town and school
buildings were properly
maintained 2) failed to
support balanced operat-
Will Zachmann ing budgets with suffi-
cient surplus funds set aside for future capital
needs and 3) failed to meet its first responsibil-
ity under the Town Manager Act of 1987: “The
Board of Selectmen shall serve as the goal set-
ting, long range planning and policy making
body of the town.
We finally have a Town Manager willing to
do the hard work needed to repair the damage
of two prior decades of mediocrity and mis-
management. We now need a board of select-
men that will join him in that effort – not under-
mine his good work by pushing another round
of ill-considered spending paid for by huge tax
increases. In short we need the Board of Se-
lectmen, finally, to do its job, too.
Why are you running for Board of Select-
men? I am seeking this position to ensure that
the Duxbury Board of Selectmen supports and
enhances, rather than undermines or subverts,
Town Manager Richard MacDonald’s work to
bring real transparency, prudent planning, fiscal
discipline, and honest policy to Duxbury town
government. MacDonald was not the Select-

he was my pick from the start. I clearly said so
in my Duxbury Clipper column at the time.
Richard MacDonald is an intelligent, dedi-
cated, hard-working, independent-thinking,
capable leader who is doing an excellent job
for us. Yet some former office holders seem to
be more interested in a town manager who will
do their bidding than they are in one who will
do his job. They are more interested in a town
manager they can count on to promote their
own agenda and advance their own interests
than they are in one who honestly takes care of
all the people’s business. They see town gov-
ernment as a means to get special advantages
for a privileged few – not as an obligation to
serve all the citizens equally. They are not sup-
porting me in this election. I owe them nothing
– and I support the town manager.

T
en years ago we moved to Duxbury be-
cause of the town’s rich history, recre-
ation, and commitment to high quality
public education. I care deeply about maintaining
and improving the quality of the education that we
provide to our children. We have a commitment to
our kids to strive for excellence,
and prepare them for success in
the 21st century.
I have spent almost 30 years
as a manager and a banker. My
work experience was built upon
leadership, integrity, communi-
cations, and analytical decision
making. I also have significant
nonprofit board and volunteer
experience with a variety of or-
Gary Magnuson
ganizations, including groups
that are focused on child and family issues. However
my most important and rewarding job has been that
of a parent. My wife Sarah and I have experienced
the Duxbury schools through our two children, who
are DMS and DHS students. This yielded first hand
knowledge of the wonderful programs that are avail-
able, as well as some opportunities for improvement.
Our schools should achieve award winning academ-
ics along with our athletic and musical achievements.
T
oday’s students are children of the 21st
century. They will not succeed by merely
learning content—for content is rapidly
changing. Our children need to acquire skills that
will enable them to learn, unlearn and relearn the
evolving subject matter. The skill set is familiar:
reading, writing, researching,
presenting, collaborating, creat-
ing and problem solving, but the
tools and methods are changing.
Teachers use the subject matter
content to teach these skills and
using technology becomes a
means to that end.
Since I have children at
multiple levels I have a broad
Mary Lou Buell perspective on Duxbury
schools. As a teacher I am in the
trenches of 21st century education every day. I ex-
perience first-hand the challenges and the solutions.
In my role as Chandler school council co-chair I have
witnessed how helpful it is to have a parent who is

C
olleen Brayer’s campaign is focused
around three platform points. Students first
is the top priority in her campaign.  Brayer
understands our district continues to have students
who are underachieving, and is committed to imple-
menting initiatives that meet the children where they
are, and guide them to achieve
their best.
Fiscal clarity has been high
on Brayer’s radar. She believes
that, “having a clear picture of
the total costs of running our
schools only improves the re-
lationship between the schools
and the community, and will
colleen brayer
lead to the best education for
our students.”
Accountability is the third
priority in Brayer’s platform.  She knows that open
communication is the hallmark of a good organiza-
tion, and that open meetings are the committee’s obli-
gation to the taxpayer.
Brayer says, “I am ready for the workload and re-
sponsibility that being a School Committee member
brings.  I am confident my experience on the Finance
Committee and background in accounting and small
business management will benefit the town.  There is
nothing more important than the hiring of the right
superintendent.  We need to make sure that this per-
son cannot only lead, but can also collaborate with
all the stakeholders.  Our new superintendent will not
only control the quality of our schools (which directly
effects our home values), but also more than half of
the town’s budget.  Our children’s futures rest upon a
thorough and thoughtful search, and I will be an asset
to that process.”

and a member of the town’s finance committee for

experience will be an asset as we face the challenge
of hiring the right superintendent and the feasibility

Students first is my top priority as our district
continues to have students who are underachiev-
ing. I am committed to implementing initiatives that
meet the students where they are and guide them to
achieve their best.
I will insist on fiscal clarity. By looking at the to-
tal costs of running our schools, we can improve the
relationship between the community and the schools.
Ultimately, this will lead to the best education of our
students.

look forward to being accountable to you – the tax-
payer.

lence in education.
The selection of a superintendent will be one of
the most important decisions the committee will make
in the next few years. I want to ensure that we hire
a strong educational leader with the skills and ideas
needed to keep our schools on the path to excellence.
Today’s economic environment impacts our budget
and we need to operate efficiently, while also con-
tinuing to invest the resources required for academic
excellence. My financial expertise will be a valuable
asset as we develop a fiscally responsible plan to ad-
dress our aging buildings. I will bring experienced
leadership, level headed decision making, financial
expertise, and a commitment to collaboration to the
School Committee to help meet these challenges.
The School Committee will be hiring a new su-
perintendent. This person will be responsible for
creating the best possible conditions for cultivating
our children’s minds for future success. The new
superintendent will be expected to maintain quality
schools with limited federal, state and local funding.
Just as 21st-century skills are driving the curricu-
lum, they should also be the driving force behind the
budget. We need clear analysis on what works and
what doesn’t – and then we need to apply it. The most
important factor in whether or not our students learn
is the classroom teacher; the school committee needs
to commit to providing high quality professional de-
velopment opportunities for our faculty members.
In the next few months Congress will pass a re-
vised national education law. The School Committee
will likely need to adjust policies to comply with new
guidelines. Duxbury residents are educated, pas-
sionate and committed citizens who should be called
upon to share their collective wisdom with the school
department as we develop policies and practices to
promote our children’s success.

Candidate questions
School committee
Duxbury as a community demands a high level of academic performance
from its schools on things like college acceptances and MCAS scores. How
do you feel Duxbury performs relative to similar towns, and how would you
provide leadership on this issue if elected to the School Committee?
Gary Magnuson
T
here are many different cri-
teria to measure our success,
including MCAS results, SAT scores,
college placement, and other awards
and recognition. Our MCAS and SAT
results are good,
but they lag be-
hind the results
achieved by the
best school sys-
tems in Massa-
chusetts. While

comparisons are
interesting; our
kids will be com-
peting with students from across the
country and around the world. As a
parent of a DHS senior, I have learned
that colleges and universities are very
competitive international destinations.
Our kids’ success will depend not just
upon their own abilities, but also on
the rigor and quality of our academic
programming as compared to other
schools. We owe it to our students to
help them be better prepared to com-
pete on the global stage in the 21st
century.
The School Committee should
provide leadership through a com-
mitment to innovation and continu-
ous improvement. We should estab-
lish quantifiable goals, identify a peer
group of high performing schools, and
track appropriate measurement cri-
teria. The School Committee and the
Superintendent should be accountable
for these goals. With the help of par-

oversight – assessing options, evaluat-

resources.
So, where do we stand? Published
MCAS is the easiest to review. For
Duxbury, I would summarize recent
results as generally positive, but with
clear room for improvement. It is also
notable that recent results have been
better for our older kids (grade 7 and
above), than the younger ones.
A standard measure of MCAS
success is the combined percentage
of children scoring “Advanced” and

ents, we should identify new initia-
tives for development and funding that
will help us meet these objectives. Ex-
amples of potential new programming
include an outdoor science program/
classroom, Mandarin as a language
option, foreign language immersion,
global student programming, and in-
tegrated multi-discipline educational
programs. A renewed commitment
to math and science is needed at all
ages. We should empower the math
and science department heads to help
establish new science, technology, and
engineering programming in all of our
schools. One example might be partic-
ipating in FIRST, which is a national
mentor based program that builds sci-
ence, engineering and technology skills
for students K-12. We should leverage
our parents and community members
to help form alliances that could bring
innovative educational programs to
our schools in partnership with the
private sector. The new environmental
science course sponsored by Battelle
Labs is an excellent example of such
a partnership.
Duxbury is a community that un-
derstands the value of first-rate public
education. We have a quality school
system which compares favorably ver-
sus many towns; however we owe it
to our children to strive for academic
excellence. Our schools should have a
record of academic achievement that is
comparable to our athletic and musical
prowess. With leadership, collabora-
tion, and commitment to improvement
we can move our schools from good
to excellent.
Above grade 7, our kids do a little bet-
ter – consistently 15-25 percent above
state averages, and in a range similar to
our neighbors. Comparing results from
2008 to 2009, in the lower grades prog-
ress was inconsistent ... small improve-
ments in some areas, small declines in
others, while grades 7-10 showed mod-
est but consistent improvement.
Continued improvement requires
the complementary efforts of differ-
ent groups. I anticipate that our new
superintendent, along with the admin-
istration and teachers, will present us
with wonderful, innovative ideas for
academic improvement. They are pro-
fessional educators and I trust their
expertise. The School Committee, in
turn, should consider each of these
objectively and carefully, avoiding the
urge to cheerlead for any particular ap-
proach or trend.
More important, however, is what
we on the School Committee do after
a program is implemented – and it is
in this area that I think we sometimes
lose focus. In these days of rising stan-
dards and tightening budgets, effective
prioritization will be more critical than
ever. To be successful, we will need a
rigorous process of continual reevalua-
tion and reallocation of resources. We
need to identify what works and what
doesn’t. Making such decisions will
require defining milestones for success
before a program is implemented. We
then need to be willing to direct more
resources to those programs that are
successful and to pull back from those
that fall short.

Traditional measures for ranking
school districts, like MCAS scores,
place Duxbury in the top 15-20 per-

districts. Our overall rankings are
deceiving given the fact that our
lower grades perform in the average
range and get consistently better un-
til high school when MCAS results
place us in the top 5-10 percent. Our
scores—in addition to what I have
observed as an elementary parent—
tell me that Duxbury takes the “slow
and steady” child-centered approach
which fosters a love of learning that
sustains our teens during the more
challenging academic years.

tool determines if our children are

using this tool?”

Use our professional development
to incorporate their successes into
our schools.
• Analyze the high scoring dis-

help us better understand where they
are spending their money, and possi-
bly help direct our future budgets.
• Implement project-based learn-
ing: a hands-on, practical application

ability to process information.
• Evaluate MCAS scores to: in-
dividualize student instruction based

best practices for teachers, so all of
our students can achieve a proficient

Candidate questions
Board of selectmen
Under Duxbury’s strong Town Manager Act, selectmen are somewhat removed from the day-
to-day operations of town management. If elected, how would you provide leadership from a
policy and long-term visioning standpoint?
Will Zachmann
B
y making sure the Duxbury Board
of Selectmen lives up to its respon-
sibilities – diligently exercising its
powers under the Town Manager Act. First of
these is that “the Board of Selectmen shall serve
as the goal setting, long
range planning, and policy
making body of the town.”
Since the Act was adopted
in 1987, the Selectmen
have set few goals, done
hardly any planning, and
made little policy.
It is not that the se-
lectmen have not worked
hard or done useful
things. They have dealt well enough with is-
sues brought before them. But they have not
provided the forward-looking leadership that is
the first duty of the Board of Selectmen. They
have been reactive rather than proactive. They
have not set priorities that ensure prudent use of
our financial resources. They have not planned
adequately for our capital requirements. This
is why we now face the specter of shocking in-

I
strongly support the Town Manager Act,
which the state legislature approved in
1987 at the town’s request. The act describes
the powers and duties of the town manager
and board of selectman, specifically for setting
policy and managing the
town. The motivations for
adopting the Town Man-
ager Act were to profes-
sionalize town govern-
ment and depoliticize both
the appointment of town
personnel and the day-
to-day operation of town
departments. Under the
Town Manager Act, “The
Board of Selectmen shall serve as the goal set-

body of the town, recommending major courses
of action to the town meeting, and adopting
policy directives and guidelines which are to be
implemented by officers, boards, committees,
commissions and employees of the town.” Ac-
cordingly, the board of selectmen has routinely
taken a leadership role on major warrant articles
at town meeting. It also has supported the Fis-
cal Advisory Committee’s work on developing
a long-range capital plan; appointed a Public
Safety Committee to review space needs in the
fire and police departments and recommend a

f the roof on your home leaked buckets of water during
every rainstorm, would you refuse to fix it?
Just like your home, the buildings and facilities in
Duxbury are an investment. And the fire station (which is on
the ballot Saturday) and the police station (which sadly isn’t)
are investments the town needs to take care of.
Asking the police and fire departments to protect the town
in their current facilities is a little like hiring someone to cut
your lawn and then giving them a butter knife. We can’t ask
these folks to do their jobs unless we give them the proper
tools. Taxpayers have a right to ask that their money be spent
wisely, to be sure. But there is only so much longer these needs
can be deferred and delayed.
Voters in Duxbury have established a precedent of
approving design fees before the project in its entirety. The
drawback to this is that it adds an extra year of delays if the
fees are rejected at the ballot box –– all the more reason to get
this done, now.
When the voters said the cost for two separate stations
were too expensive, the town listened and went back to the
drawing board, coming up with a plan for a combined station.
When people said they didn’t want to see cemetery land used
for combo station, the town acquiesced again. It’s time to
stop saying no. Vote to approve the fire station design fees on
Saturday and let’s move this whole process forward –– it’s long
overdue.

and should leave the operations to professionals,
meaning administrators and teachers. Duxbury
over the last few years has seen the necessary
bright line between the board and the profes-

likely be a watershed moment for Duxbury

pulled it all together with their committee, were

We raised nearly $6,500 that evening

FROM THE ARCHIVES
It was interesting to see how the Clipper summarized the Town Meeting in a cartoon in March of
1971. There were further details in the paper, but the cartoon highlighted the most popular articles
that were up for vote.
Crematory makes financial sense ––––––––––
I
am writing to stress the importance of
voting yes on Question 2 on next Satur-
day’s ballot, to support the construction
of a new crematory. Generally, new building
construction costs us money, but in this case, it
actually saves us money. Duxbury’s crematory
currently supplies the town with over $600,000
of essential annual revenue after expenses,
without which the town would either have to
raise taxes or cut services. However, the crema-
tory no longer meets environmental codes and
is likely to be shut down in the near future. We
cannot afford to lose that revenue. Should the
town vote to build a new crematory, the aver-

ity shown making 125 bag lunches for our guests
at the Table. (Clipper photo, page 21, Mar 17).
Caf workers situation far from resolved –––––
T
he recent headline “Caf workers con-
tract resolved” in the March 10 Clip-
per was unfortunately misleading. It
conveyed the message that the town of Duxbury
school cafeteria workers’ employment situation
is resolved and moving forward. Not so, and far
from so! It is now dire.
After depriving many of these workers of
health benefits, and reducing their pay for the
last six months, the situation has now gone from
selectively unfair treatement to far more abusive
conduct. Plans are now in the works to terminate
the jobs of these 30 long term, loyal, local em-
ployees, scheduled for June 30. Bids have been
solicited, and received, by the town/school de-
partment to replace these loyal employees by
new, unknown workers of some out of town “for-
profit” company.
They are being victimized, at a time when
jobs are so desperately needed.
This action is curiously being “sold to the
public” as a valid cost reduction plan. Yet at the
same time these demeaning, devastating actions
are being pursued against these defenseless em-
ployees, the other employees (i.e., the admin-
Duxbury Clipper
age tax bill would see an uptick of $46 the first
year and successive lesser amounts annually
over the life of the 15-year, $2.6 million bond.
That construction cost seems like a bargain to
me compared to other building construction
costs being bandied about. From the moment it
opens its doors, the new crematory is projected
to cover its expenses and debt service and still
deliver critical revenue to the town. It will cost
us more in taxes to replace the crematory’s lost
annual revenue than it will to build a new cre-
matory. Please vote yes on Question 2.

istrative staff, teachers, and other town/school
employees) have received salary increases, and
will again next year. Blatantly transparent “false
economy!” This selective, shameful ploy is seen
by many residents as unfair and unacceptable,
and should not be allowed to happen.
And, the very concept of privatizing the
cafeteria operations is inappropriate and inequi-
table. Not only do those who support it ignore
the human cost to the current loyal workers, but
are ignorant of the true cost of going that route. A
well-managed, locally controlled, “not for profit”
operation is by far a better strategy, also for our
school children. And if privatizing is good for the
low paid, low cost cafeteria operation, why then
is it not being pursued for the really big expense?
School operations, such as the administrative
staff, teachers, etc.? The reasons are obvious.
Let us expect that the new school committee,
with its new members, will regain control of this
misguided action. It must be ended promptly, to
stop further waste of money and to end the abuse
of these loyal employees.

Between a rock
and a hard place
O
By Andre Martecchini,
n Saturday, March 12, Town Meeting supported
Article 15, to authorize spending up to $292,000
for design plans to renovate the Tremont Street
Central Fire Station. The next hurdle is to get approval of a
debt exclusion override at the March 27 town election.
The Public Safety Building Committee has worked
hard for three years trying to put the best option to upgrade
the fire station before the voters. After much study by this
committee and a consulting architect, we believe that the
renovation scheme we presented at Town Meeting is the most
cost-effective solution that meets the current operational
needs of our Fire Department.
Some voters may believe that we don’t need the upgrade.
For those that feel this way, we ask that you come by the
fire station, meet with the fire chief, and see first hand the
conditions that the department must work under. There
are numerous unsafe conditions that do not meet today’s
building codes, there are no separate facilities for our
female staff, the building is not handicap accessible, there
are no decontamination facilities to allow the firefighters/
paramedics to decontaminate themselves and their equipment
when they are covered in blood or exposed to other toxic
substances, medical supplies are not properly stored and
secured, and there is a woeful lack of space to properly store
and maintain the department’s expensive equipment.
Some may question the cost, which in today’s economy
is completely justified. Although the department would
welcome a brand new station with more apparatus floor space
and amenities, the committee has worked hard to balance
the “wants” versus “needs” of the department. The most
pressing needs of removing safety violations, improving the
crew quarters, increasing storage and maintenance space, and
making the building code compliant will be achieved. The
fire chief feels that the proposed building will be more than
adequate for several decades.
And there are some who still believe that the better
solution is a combined police/fire station. The committee
seriously studied this option, and concluded that a combined
facility will cost significantly more than renovating the fire
station and building a new police station. First, there simply
isn’t town-owned land available in close proximity to the fire
station to build a combined facility. The fire station needs
to be close to its current location to maintain response times.
Lot coverage and zoning requirements, restrictions being in
a Zone 2 aquifer district, vehicle circulation requirements for
both departments, requirements mandated by state law for
prisoner handling and stormwater management regulations
would require approximately four acres of land. We explored
using the only parcel available that met the criteria, by
studying a piece of cemetery land, but the Cemetery Trustees
did not support this proposal and there was a general public
outcry to using this historical property. Another alternative
we explored was to purchase or take by eminent domain
several properties adjacent to the fire station to enlarge the
property. This option would require an estimated minimum
cost of $1,000,000 for property acquisition with the potential
for litigation and about $150,000 to relocate the fueling
station. Second, the committee and its consultant discovered
that there is relatively little cost savings in a combined
facility. There are very few shared spaces, as police and
fire have two very different mission statements. In fact there
is more interaction between the fire, water and building
departments, with almost daily interaction. Some facilities
like a lobby, training classroom, and septic system could be
shared, but these are not the expensive parts of the facility.
The bottom line – a combined facility will be significantly
more expensive than what we are proposing.
The committee has dramatically scaled back the fire
station building renovation program to lessen its fiscal impact
for the taxpayers. We feel that this is a prudent approach that
will meet the needs of the fire department for many years
to come. The town has been making numerous short-term
repairs in recent years until the voters decide what to do next.
The time is now to undertake this critical project, and we ask
for your support at the polls.
Mr. Martecchini is the Chairman of the Public Safety
Building Committee. This letter is supported by committee
members Georgia Blatterman, Paul Brogna, Neil Johnson,

Water Everywhere: A program for Brownies and first grade
Daisy Scouts is being sponsored by Cadette Troop 80331 on
April 10 from 6-8:30 p.m., in the Parish Center at Holy Family
Church. Participants will earn the Water Everywhere Try-it (the
Daisy Scouts will be able to place this on their Brownie uni-
form in the fall). Girls are invited to wear their pj’s (optional).
Registration is required and space is limited. Flyers have been
emailed to the troop leaders with a tear off registration form at
the bottom. The cost is $10 and includes many fun-filled activi-
ties, the Try-it and a snack. Checks should be made out to Troop
80331 and can be mailed to Joan Riser at 69 Heritage Ln. or
dropped in the Girl Scout Box by the front door.
Easter Bags: Please be sure to bring your completed Easter
bags to Holy Family Church this weekend and leave them in
the Parish Center so they can be distributed next week with the
food baskets.
Lump-Sum Distribution?
As families across the country watch their retirement savings and stock
portfolios anxiously, it is easy to get distracted by short-term worries
about the economy. But it is important to keep
the long term in mind, too. At some point, many
people with retirement or employer-sponsored
investment accounts will find themselves faced
with the decision of what to do with a lump-sum
distribution. This can happen when you change
jobs and cash out a 401(k), or when you retire.
In either case, it is important to think through
your options.

It doesn’t get any better
Holdgate named MSSADA Athletic Director of The Year
By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor
sports@duxburyclipper.com
The people of Duxbury
expect the best from their
town when it comes to educa-
tion, sports, and quality of life.

1&

Therefore, the next time you
get an urge to cast a stone at
the administration of the DHS
sports program, your com-
plaints may fall on deaf ears.
Why do you ask?
Just ask the members of
the Massachusetts Second-
ary Schools Athletic Direc-
tors Association (MSSADA),
who last week voted Duxbury
High School Athletic Direc-
tor Thom Holdgate the 2009-
2010 Athletic Director of the
Year in Massachusetts.
“I was really surprised at
being named the recipient of
this award,” said Holdgate. “A
lot of times this is given to an
AD that has done a great job
over a period of time and is
about to retire.”
Holdgate was chosen from
a group of outstanding nomi-
nees throughout the state by a
selection committee comprised
of a retired superintendent, a
retired principal, and two re-
tired athletic administrators
with significant experience in
the field at the local, district,
state, and national levels.
Holdgate, who is in charge
of the second largest athletic
program on the South Shore,
was a unanimous selection,
having represented the state of
Massachusetts at the Eastern
Regional Athletic Director of
The Year competition earlier

University with a B.A. in his-
tory and american studies,
Holdgate also holds his M.S.
in sports administration from
Ohio University. He attained
his certified athletic admin-
istrator’s status in 2003 and
his certified master athletic
administrator’s designation in
2007.
He was the director of
athletics at Nantucket High
School from 1999-2002 before
leaving for Duxbury where he
has served in a similar capac-
ity since the fall of 2002.
During his tenure at Nan-
tucket, Holdgate founded the
Lighthouse Conference after
the dissolution of the Cape and
Islands League in 2002, and he
has served as chairman of both
the Cape and Islands League,
as well as the Patriot League.
He is also credited with starting
halls of fame at Duxbury and
Nantucket to honor achieve-
ments of alumni, coaches, and
other contributors.
At the state level, Hold-
gate currently serves on the
MIAA District C Committee,
the Eligibility Review Board,
and chairs the MIAA golf and
softball committees, following
stints on the MIAA Sports-
manship Committee from
200-2002. After serving as the
secretary of MSSADA from
2007 through 2009, Holdgate
is currently the organization’s
third vice president.
Holdgate has been recog-
nized for his accomplishments
with a number of awards that
include being named the Pa-
triot League and District C

Award winner in 2009, as well

Defense the key to Dragons’ lacrosse success
By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor
sports@duxburyclipper.com
It’s that time of year when
Duxbury lacrosse fans wonder
if their team can do it again.
Spoiled by six consecutive
state titles and seven in the last
eight years, there is always
talk of the players Coach Chris
Sweet lost and how he’ll re-
place them. Somehow he does
and the team keeps winning,
but every year it seems that
the emphasis is on a different
phase of the game.
No longer is there the Max
Quinzani scoring machine or
the accurate passing of Derek
Sweet that brought oohs and
aahs from the crowd. This
year’s squad is counting on an
experienced defense to bring
title number eight, and the un-
derclassmen-laden team to get
some experience under its belt
while maintaining Duxbury’s
winning tradition.
The 2010 squad won’t be
an offensively explosive team
like in past years, but the key
will be to keep opponents in
check with an array of game-
tested defenders.
“We’re a very talented
team from the goalie on out,”
said Sweet. “Senior captain

good we’re going to try and

utes this season because he is

While both netminders

team in the state, it certainly
helps to have a defense in front

of them that brings size and
experience to the table.
Senior captain JB Marston
returns, along with sophomore
Max Randall, who started ev-
ery game as a freshman and
plays at a level beyond his
years. Joining the veteran
duo will be junior Peter Wil-
lauer, who has been one of the
biggest surprises in the pre-
season.
“His progression from last
year has been remarkable,”
said Sweet.
Marston made the switch
from an attack in youth la-
crosse to defense at the high
school level and everyone
seems to be happy about it.
“He has made so much
progress since switching that
I now consider him one of
the premier defenseman in
the state,” said Sweet. “While
Randall may not have the flash,
he is as solid a player as you
are going to find back there.”
Complementing the start-
ing three is a trio of players
that has Sweet’s confidence
that they too can continue to
play aggressive defense when
they come in the game.
Sophomores Jay McDer-
mott and Matt O’Keefe, along
with senior Jake Kearney, will
rotate in and out among the
starters.
“I don’t think you’ll see
much of a drop-off when they
come into the game,” said
Sweet. “We have depth back
there and have six really strong
players in front of the net.”
Juniors Christian Connol-
ly and Clark Demos round out
the defensive corps.
After a couple of years of
strong midfield play, Sweet

BACK TO BUSINESS: Head Coach Chris Sweet can concentrate on trying to lead the Dragons to their
seventh straight Division I State lacrosse title.
thinks this year’s offense may
be coming more from his at-
tacks. Despite that shift in
thinking, it doesn’t mean the
midfield is taking a back seat
to anyone.
Senior captain John Ric-
ciardi, junior Brian Barry, and
senior Nick Woodgate will be
the Dragons’ first line, while
senior Lance O’Donovan,
senior Rick Armstrong, and
sophomore Chris Williams
have landed the number two
spot.
“Ricciardi is a good two-
way player and may be the fast-
est kid on the team, while Bar-
ry has shown to be a strong on
the ball with the ability to get
off his shot. I guess you could
say Woodgate is the lunch pail
type of player who isn’t afraid
to do the dirty work out there,”
said the Duxbury coach.
The second unit could sur-
prise offensively, as they all
have speed and are athletic.
The third line of juniors
Matt Hallisey and Stephan
Krall, along with sophomore
Jon Gomer, is another group
Sweet says show potential and
hopes they can get it going
early.
“Hallisey had a good year
on the football field and I’m
hoping that enthusiasm comes
along with him. I really think
he can develop into a scorer,
while Krall has made big
strides from last season and
is proving to be very athletic.
Gomer comes from a family of
lacrosse players and has been
one of the pleasant surprises
of camp. He has some good
moves when he has the ball.”
Sophomores Mitch Bar-
rington, Tim Harrison, and
Cam Mullins will also see
some playing time, as Mullins
has shown some good passing
skills in the team’s two first
preseason wins.
Senior Sam Reinhart and
sophomore Adam Fitzgerald
are also expected to get a shot
at some playing time in the
midfield.
With the offensive em-
phasis shifting up front, the
pressure will be on the seven
attacks to put points on the
board.
Junior Kane Haffey is the
team’s leading scorer, who re-
turns for 2010, while sopho-
more Seamus Connolley and
classmate Paul Hellar round
out the starting three.
“Haffey is smart, has a
good shot and is quick around
the net, while Hellar is loaded
with raw talent and has all
the potential to be a big-time
5
scorer,” said Sweet. “Connolly
is really big for an attack. It’s
something we rarely have on
our team and its makes him
dangerous up front.”
Sophomores Sam Sweet
and Will Siefert will get plenty
of scoring chances early in
their high school careers, with
junior Tim Matthews joining
the duo up front.
“Sam has good distributing
skills, while Siefert is a solid
all-around attack with good
dodging ability. Matthews has
been a complete surprise and
has shown he looks like he’ll
be a good addition to our front
line,” say Sweet.
Senior Dan Blackwell also
looks like he’ll get some play-
ing time up front.
Despite having so many
underclassmen on the team,
Sweet doesn’t think it will be
a problem when he goes up
against teams that have more
junior/senior-oriented teams.
“I’ve found that despite
having a lot of these kids
around for the past couple of
years, they still have a lot to
learn. But they are fast learn-
ers too.”
Having had their consecu-
tive win streak against Massa-
chusetts schools end at 99, the
pressure is off for this year’s
squad and makes life a little
easier for Sweet.
“It did become a distrac-
tion as we went along, but
we are proud of what we did.
We’ll just have to try and start
another one,” said the Drag-
ons’ coach.
This Saturday the team
will travel to Connecticut for
the annual Daniel Hand Pre-
season Tournament.

Holdgate AD of The Year
continued from page one
Duxbury Superintendent
of Schools Sue Skeiber was
quoted as saying, “With all
his affiliations, and as direc-
tor of an athletic program that
has won 15 state titles in seven
different sports, one would
wonder how does one person
accomplish all of this? The
answer is simple. Thom is an
individual who is committed
to a role that athletics can play
in the lives of young men and
women. He devotes his ener-
gies to providing them with
the finest programs available.
He is one of a kind and Dux-
bury is very fortunate to have
someone like Thom directing
its athletic program.”
Even opposing AD Bill
Johnson of Silver Lake had
high praise for his car-pooling
partner.
“I got to know Thom from
riding with him to all of our
MIAA and MSSADA meet-
ings. I told him I did him a
big favor by joining the Pa-
triot League so he could get
a couple of extra wins every
season,” Johnson said with
a smile. “But I do have to
say that Thom has been light
years ahead of the rest of the
athletic directors in the Patriot
League with his understanding
of technology. I can call Thom
and ask him to get a consen-
sus of how other ADs around
the league feel about a subject
and less than a minute later it
A SHOW OF SUPPORT: Duxbury coaches, administrators, and
family were there for the award presentation. They included Harry
Taylor, Friend Weiler, Andrew Stephans, Tim McPhillips, Thom
Holdgate, Megan Holdgate, Joan Holdgate, David Holdgate,
Kathy Davis-McDonough and Diana Meyers-Pachla.

shows up in my e-mail. He’ll
be typing away on his laptop
at our meetings and the rest of
us are there with notepads and
pencils.”
Holdgate was presented
the award by Walter Sargent,
the Executive Director of
MSSADA, and he received
a standing ovation from the
crowd that included his par-
ents, Joan and David Hold-
gate, along with his expectant
wife, Megan.
A large contingent of cur-
rent and former DHS admin-
istrators was on hand and in-
cluded DHS Principal Andrew
Stephans, former DHS Assis-
tant Principal Ron McCarthy,
Assistant Football Coach and
varsity track coach Harry Tay-
lor, DARE officer and girls’
varsity hockey coach Friend
Weiler, Assistant Principal Di-
ana Meyers-Pachla, Assistant
Principal Kathy Davis-Mc-
Donough, and DHS Physical
Education teacher and Head
Trainer Tim McPhillips.
“I would also like to thank
all the parents and contribu-
tors to the DHS program that
make my life easier,” said
Holdgate. “With all the finan-
cial restraints we have with
the budget, they go the extra
mile to make sure our athletes
have everything they need to
be competitive. Having a win-
ning program certainly raises
our profile out there and helps
immensely in allowing me to
win an award of this nature.”

“C

the world in

Passport Club, a geography
program created by teacher
Lynn Erikson of Washington
State and brought to Alden
school this year by Duxbury
PTA parent Shannon McK-
enzie. It is a lunch club that
meets once a month in the
school’s multi-purpose room
next to the Performing Arts
Center. And while members
don’t have to travel far from
their classrooms to get there,
by the end of the school year
the children will have memo-
rized many different countries
all across the globe. This year
approximately 160 kids are
participating and two teachers
are trying it class-wide.

Two Duxbury residents

this special tea party during
their lunch period. Karen Weh-

She showed maps and pho-
tos of the country her family
called home for the past nine
years. Wehner helped bring
clarity to the often misunder-
stood relationship among the
British Isles, United Kingdom
and England. She went on to
explain the relationship be-
tween the monarchy and the
parliament and the parallels
between Boston and Lon-
don. The children could feel

Fourth Friday film series

The Duxbury Free Li-
brary’s next film in the Fourth
Friday Film series, “Volver”
directed by Pedro Amnodovar
will screen on Friday, Feb. 26
at 7 p.m. in the Merry Room,
library lower level. Anyone
with questions about Pené-
lope Cruz’s talent as an actor
will have all the answers after
watching this film. Almodó-
var treads familiar ground and
works with some of his favor-
ite actresses—including Car-
men Maura, Lola Dueñas, and
Chus Lampreave—to create a
film of genuine emotional res-
onance. The film is rated R.
Film screenings are pre-
ceded and followed by lively
discussion led by Prof. Man-
drell. Admission is free and
refreshments are available.
March 26: Songcatch-
er (USA 2000) dir. Maggie
Greenwald. 109 mins. PG-13.
Although somewhat anach-
ronistic, the music and Janet
McTeer’s pitch-perfect perfor-
mance more than make up for
whatever is less than apt for
the period. With Pat Carrol
and Aidan Quinn, as well as a
surprisingly affecting Emmy
Rossum in her first feature
film.
April 23: Ma vie en rose /
My Life in Pink (France 1997)
dir. Alain Berliner 88 mins.
Rated R. A family with a secret
that it tries desperately to keep
under wraps. Eventually, ev-
erything comes out—doesn’t
it always?—and everyone has
to make a choice about what is
important to them and why. A
subtle and sweet film with 13-
year-old Georges Du Fresne
in a remarkable debut perfor-
mance.
May 28: Next Stop Won-
derland (USA 1998) dir. Brad
Anderson. 104 mins. Rated
R. Who says that a mother
doesn’t know best? Who bet-
ter to place a personal ad for
her single daughter in a local
paper? Yet another romantic
comedy with the advantage
of terrific writing, outstanding
performances, and a Boston
location. Not to be missed.
