The Patriots captured a Greater Boston League title, placed second in regionals and earned fourth in the Massachusetts Large Coed Division at the state championships during the fall season, a performance strong enough to qualify them for Nationals in Orlando at the end of March. And this winter, the Patriots came back with another strong showing at the GBLs and now prepares for state and national level competitions. For a program that has steadily built momentum under coaches Kayle Pezzuto and Sabrina Sloan, the opportunity to compete on the national stage represents both validation and unfinished business. Balancing academics with demanding practices across both fall and winter seasons, the team has leaned on resilience, deep-rooted bonds and leadership from a senior class determined to leave its mark.

To our Residents: Thank you for bunkering down during the storm surge and allowing our crews to do the necessary work to clear the majority of our streets within 24 hours. More importantly, thank you for your resilience and community spirit. It has been heartening to see neighbors helping neighbors, clearing snow, cleaning catch basins, and checking in on one another or providing warm shelter during power outages.

The bills would require the disclosure of AI use in political advertisements and would ban deceptive communications about a candidate or about the electoral process within three months of an election. “As artifi cial intelligence continues to reshape our economy and many aspects of our daily lives, lawmakers have a responsibility to ensure that AI does not further the spread of misinformation in our politics.

The National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a storm that contains large amounts of snow or blowing snow, with winds in excess of 35 mph and visibilities of less than a quarter mile for an extended period of time, at least three hours. All of these criteria were met, with winds averaging well over 50 mph for most of the storm. In the South Shore, winds were recorded at a record 83 mph on Cape Cod, the force of a Category 1 Hurricane. Despite sporadic power outages caused by the combination of heavy wind, downed tree limbs and subsequent downed power lines, there were little if any outages reported or addressed in The Advocate readership communities. Snow emergencies and the parking bans that accompany them were declared in all four communities, while Mass. Governor Maura Healey declared a state of emergency in Massachusetts at 12 noon on Sunday, ahead of the storm, and it remained in place through Tuesday evening, expected to be lifted by late Tuesday ahead of Wednesday morning. Classes were scheduled to resume in all four communities as information available just before Advocate press time. Local Department of Public Works (DPW) crews worked around the clock, beginning Sunday evening and well into Tuesday and Wednesday, battling the blizzard and its aftermath. DPW crews — assisted by a bevy of outside contractors — were out in force in all four communities, ahead of the storm on Sunday, laying down sand and salt, preparing the roads for the impending Nor’easter. By early Monday morning, at the height of the storm, DPW plows and other apparatus were out on the main roads working on clearing them and making them passable. For the fi rst time in recent memory, Massachusetts experienced the brunt of the massive storm, with several communities in the South Shore smashing previous snowfall records with over three feet of snow. The city of Fall River, Mass., had the highest snowfall in the state and among all Eastern Seaboard states with a whopping 41-inch snowfall.

Malden led the list and got whacked with over two feet of snow — 20.0 inches in all — from the Nor’easter’s start, around 11 p.m. Sunday night, February 23, until the storm subsided, with snow halting around 8:00 p.m. Monday, February 24. While Boston Logan Airport recorded 17.3 inches of snow, Everett had 17.1 inches, Revere had 16.5 inches and Saugus recorded 16.0 inches. All four readership communities hire a number of outside snowplow operating contractors when storms hit, and despite a regional shortage of snowplow drivers, all initial reports from the four communities is that all did a commendable job clearing out from the fi rst recorded blizzard in four years. t was the fi rst bona fi de blizzard since 2022, according to the National Weather Service (NWS). Though the snowfall added up to an amount not even the greatest number for this calendar year, it was still a substantial amount: just about 17 inches for Boston overall. This was the second major storm to hit the Eastern Seaboard in as many months, with this past January 25-26, 2026, Winter Storm Fern cascading some 23.2 inches on the region, helping push that weather event to become the eighth largest storm of all-time in the Boston area. As for this past week’s Blizzard of 2026, it was certainly “a doozy,†as Mass. Governor Maura Healey declared in her major press conference on Monday afternoon, just after the peak of the blizzard. The NWS reported that snowfall totals in Boston reached 16.9 inches at 7 p.m. on Monday, placing it in the Top 20 largest storms at that moment. Who knew that in the Advocate readership area Malden would own the “jackpot†number of snowfall totals, with the most inches of snow in both the Greater Boston region and Middlesex County overall: a whopping 20 inches! See listing below. The other three communities served by The Advocate all fell into the Greater Boston area’s Top 10 for this storm, with Everett (17.1 inches) not far behind Malden in total snowfall and Revere (16.5 inches) and Saugus (16.0 inches) just after Boston in their community snowfall totals. As of January 2026, Boston’s Top 10 snowstorms are led by the 2003 Presidents’ Day Storm (27.6 inches) and the 1978 Blizzard (27.1 inches).

Voters deserve to know that what they are seeing and hearing is real. I am grateful to Speaker Mariano, Chairman Hunt, Chair FarleyBouvier, and our colleagues for their leadership in advancing these critical protections to safeguard our democracy.†“Integrity in our elections is essential to our democracy. These pieces of legislation require that the public be notifi ed when AI is used in a political campaign and prohibits the unlawful use of AI to create fake ads. I am pleased to support both of these bills,†said State Representative Jeff rey Rosario Turco (D. Winthrop). An Act to Protect against Election Misinformation prohibits the distribution of deceptive communications within 90 days of an election, which includes: • Audio or visual media which depicts a candidate with intent to injure their reputation or deceive a voter into voting for or against them. • Media that concerns the safety or regular operations of an election with intent to disrupt the integrity of the electoral process. THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2026 An Act enhancing disclosure • Content with the intent to mislead voters as to the date and time of an election; the requirements, methods, or deadlines to vote; the certifi cation of an election; and the express endorsement of a candidate or ballot initiative by a political party, elected offi cial, nonprofi t organization, or another person. The bill authorizes a political candidate whose voice or likeness appears in a materially deceptive audio or visual media to seek injunctive or other equitable relief prohibiting the distribution of the media, or to bring an action for damages and attorney’s fees against the party that distributed the media. Exemptions for the 90-day prohibition include: media outlets who air the ads or report on the ads as part of a newscast as long as they clearly acknowledge that there are questions about its authenticity; websites, newspapers, magazines and periodicals; and satire and parody. Revere Launches Parks and Recreation Commission, Elects Jacklyn Damiano as Chair By Th e Advocate T he newly formed Parks and Recreation Commission met for the fi rst time this week. Members voted to elect Jacklyn Damiano to chair the commission. Parks and Recreation Department Director Michael Hinojosa will serve as an ex-offi cio member of the commission. The City Council was initially reluctant to create the commission for fear that it might interfere with Hinojosa, who councillors agreed does an exceptional job of organizing activities and managing the city’s recreational resources. However, it was decided that the commission could engage the community, give residents a vehicle for input and bring new ideas to the Parks and Recreation Department. Adriana Borriello, the activities coordinator for the Parks and Recreation Department, told the new commission that public engagement is one area where they could be helpful. “We would love something along those ideas to help us. We’re always striving to incorporate public opinion and what the community would like to see more of. We struggle to get our information out there,†Borriello said. Often residents say they didn’t know about events. The department needs help informing residents about what city-sponsored recreational activities are being off ered. Commissioners, who bring a wide range of experience to their posts, all agreed that the commission could help expand recreational opportunities which will contribute to the quality of life in Revere. The commission agreed on conducting an audit of recreational resources and activities in part to better understand what the city has to off er and partly to look at the scheduling for fi eld time for youth soccer.

Violations are punishable by a fine of not more than $1,000. “With the rapid advancement in new media technologies, it is important that we have proper safeguards in place to ensure this technology is not abused or manipulated to intentionally mislead voters,†said House Minority Leader Bradley H. Jones. “House Bill 5094 provides for greater election transparency by mandating the full disclosure of any artifi cial intelligence-generated synthetic media used in politPage 7 ical advertising and establishing monetary penalties for violations. Promoting the responsible use of new technologies in campaign advertising will help to ensure that voters have access to reliable information, so they can make an informed decision about whether to support a candidate.†An Act to Protect against Election Misinformation passed the House by a vote of 154-3. An Act enhancing disclosure requirements for synthetic media in political advertising passed the House by a vote of 157-0. Both bills now go to the Senate for consideration. PLEASANT ST.

Expires 3/31/26. mmigration attorney Diann Slavit Baylis announced that she is running for Governor’s Council in Massachusetts’ 6th District. Slavit Baylis, a resident of Marblehead, took out nomination papers this week from the Secretary of State’s Offi ce, and plans to collect nomination signatures throughout the district. The Governor’s Council is an elected body in Massachusetts that provides advice and consent on the Governor’s judicial appointments, pardons and commutations, and warrants for the state treasury. The Council also plays a role in the certification of statewide election results. The 6th district encompasses parts of Boston, most of Cambridge, the cities of Chelsea, Everett, Lynn, Malden, Medford, Melrose, Revere and Somerville, and the towns of Lynnfi eld, Marblehead, Nahant, Reading, Saugus, Stoneham, Swampscott, Wakefield, Winchester and Winthrop. “We need judges with knowledge, integrity and compassion at every level of our judiciary, and I will be a voice for that on the Governor’s Council,†said Slavit Baylis. “What many people don’t know is that critical decisions impacting the lives of children who enter the country unaccompanied, like the clients that I have represented as immigration counsel, are being made in our state probate courts. This is a dangerous time for immigrant families. We must ensure that people appointed to judgeships understand immigration law, and that they will stand up for the constitutional rights, safety and best interests of immigrants and immigrant children.†While most immigration proceedings take place in federal immigration courts, Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, a path to citizenship for unaccompanied minors, is determined at the state level through the probate courts. Slavit-Baylis, a lifelong resident of the North of Boston region, is a graduate of Merrimack College and Suffolk Law School. She has a long history of public service, including volunteering for the Lawyer of the Day program at Essex Probate Court. Earlier in her career she served as Deputy Campaign Coordinator for the Massachusetts Democratic Party, and she is currently an active member of the Marblehead Democratic Town Committee. Slavit Baylis has also supported the work of the Massachusetts Coalition to Prevent Gun Violence, having testifi ed at legislative hearings and spoken at State House rallies to urge action on much-needed gun violence prevention legislation. “I come from a tradition of public service,†said Slavit Baylis, the youngest daughter of former Haverhill Harbormaster William “Red†Slavit. “There is important work to be done on the Governor’s Council, and I look forward to engaging voters in a conversation about their priorities, and what I can off er them as their Councilor from the 6th District.†׉ Ú7cassandra://BG-ixjYBfRm4D7_IpaYQPDsdLLY19tc8-3nDFlV1avcÍ/èÍ`ÌÔÍ×i qÕFOT]×¢|ð׉EÚÈTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2026 Page 9 CHEERLEADERS | FROM Page 1 As the Patriots prepare for Orlando, Pezzuto refl ected on the journey, the growth of her captains and what lies ahead. What were the highlights from the fall and why? During the 2025 fall season, our team took home the GBL title, second place in the region, and fourth in the Massachusetts Large Coed Division. They missed placing at States by one-tenth of a point. They took that and let it drive them to come back better winter season. What were the highlights from the winter and why? On Sunday, Feb. 22, we competed in the Greater Boston League Championship. Our team scored the highest we have seen since taking over this program. We look forward to seeing how the team places at regionals on March 1 and states on March 8. What can you say about the team’s improvement over the course of this school year? This team has overcome so many challenges over the years, and they are ready to hit the ground running this season. Their determination, teamwork and resilience are unmatched. We have always said one of the most rewarding aspects of coaching this team is their bond. Many of our athletes have been cheering together since elementary school, and getting the opportunity to coach a team with such a deep-rooted bond is a privilege. As a coaching team, Sabrina and I pride ourselves on upholding respect and kindness as our core values, and these kids radiate both of those things on and off the mat. Who were the captains and what did they bring to the team? Geovanny Acetty: Geo has been on the team since we took over this program. His growth, attention to detail and work ethic are things that have truly made an impact on this program and will be felt even after he graduates. He is a true star on and off the mat and, more importantly, he is an incredible person. Briana Capunay: Bri is someone over the years who has truly come into herself.

(Photo courtesy of JJ Jones Jr.) has grown so much not only as an athlete, but as a person. She is not the loudest, but she always leads by example and never gives up when things get tough. Nick Freitas: Nick is new to our team this year, but he fi ts in like he’s been around forever. The second he joined the team; he led without having to be told. He has a way about him that motivates everyone around him, and it is clear that he wants the best for everyone and the program. Nick is someone who will leave an impact on this program even when he graduates. We have learned so much from him and are grateful he found his home at RHS cheer. Jessica Farro: Jess is someone who has a way of bridging the relationship between coaches and teammates. She is respected by her peers, while also being someone who, as coaches, we can count on. When dynamics get diffi cult, she is always able to break through and lift spirits. We are grateful to get to coach her for another year following this one. What’s ahead for the team? This March, we will be traveling to Orlando, Fla., to compete on the national level. This is such a deserving group of kids, and we cannot wait to watch them shine.

With a 2-1 victory over Northbridge in the fi nal game of the season, the co-op closed at 7-12 overall, a massive leap from last winter’s 1-19-1 campaign. That improvement didn’t happen by accident. Revere’s Frankie Annunziata delivered in the biggest moments, scoring both goals in the fi nale. Mystic Valley’s Varun Chawla and Everett’s Ben Saia each dished out two assists, keeping the pressure on throughout the game. In net, Everett goalie Ray Blauvelt was lights out again, making key late stops to protect the onegoal lead. Seniors Charlie Govastves (Everett), Chris Argueta (Revere) and Lyndsey Sylva of Everett all turned in strong performances in their fi nal outing, helping steady the group in tight moments. Under coach Craig Richards, the co-op steadily built confi - dence this winter — competing harder, defending with more structure and fi nishing games that slipped away a year ago. The record shows the progress. Revere girls basketball earns tournament bid behind depth and balance T he Revere High School girls basketball earned the No. 35 seed in the MIAA Tournament and will travel to face No. 30 Central Catholic of Lawrence (8-12) in a Feb. 25 preliminary round matchup. The Lady Patriots punched their postseason ticket by securing their 10th win of the season — a 52-18 victory over Northeast Metro Tech — marking a milestone year for a roster that blends experienced seniors with rising underclassmen. Against Northeast, Revere exploded for 31 points in the fi rst quarter. Shayna Smith (10 points) and Allyson Ollivierra (nine points) set the tone early. Off the bench, Asmaa Azeroual added seven points and 10 rebounds, Destiny Borges-Kelley controlled the glass with 11 rebounds, and Ajsi Balla contributed seven boards as coach Liz Lake rotated players freely in the second half. The week also included competitive losses to strong programs. In a 50-36 setback to Danvers, Ollivierra poured in 17 points, showcasing her perimeter range, while Addison Ulwick added 12 points and seven rebounds. Danvers (19-1) was paced by Angie Djoko (14) and Sienna Lynch (10). Revere followed with a tightly contested 52-48 loss to Medford (12-8). The Lady Patriots held a 26-19 halftime lead before foul trouble and a third-quarter surge from Medford shifted momentum. Ollivierra fi nished with 19 points and Ulwick added 16 in the eff ort, while Medford’s Siena Fauci scored 24. Throughout the season, Revere has leaned on Smith’s scoring presence, Ollivierra’s shooting, Ulwick’s rebounding and interior toughness, and increasing bench production from players like Azeroual, Borges-Kelley and Balla. That depth helped carry the Patriots through the grind of the regular season and into tournament play. Now, with postseason basketball ahead, Revere headed into Central Catholic battle-tested and confi dent — a team that has grown steadily from December through February and earned its opportunity.

The era of the purely aesthetic lawn is over; the future is about the high-performance, consciously-designed landscape. “Your yard is no longer just a patch of grass; it’s strategic investment, a sanity-saving sanctuary, and a vital link in your community’s connected ecosystem,†says Kris Kiser, President & CEO of the TurfMutt Foundation. “In 2026, outdoor living will become smarter and more personalized than ever before. Intentionality is the new foundation of American landscaping.†The TurfMutt Foundation predicts these essential shifts will defi ne green spaces in the coming year: • The 365-Day Landscape Homeowners are rejecting a one season yard. To maximize their investment and enjoyment, the “backyarding season†now spans all four quarters. Winter is for smart planning and equipment maintenance or new purchases; spring and summer to plant and enjoy outdoor activities; and fall to make critical improvements for the year ahead. This strategic, year-round approach relies on localized knowledge like using the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map to select the right plants for the right place. • Right-Sized, Purpose-Driven Zones Every square foot of a 2026 yard must have a function. Even smaller urban areas will be maximized with features like living walls, container gardens, and raised beds. For larger properties, the trend shifts toward creating distinct “outdoor living zones†for entertaining, exercising or working, and a greater emphasis on productive hobby farms and large, well-managed garden plots. The key is curating an environment that enhances a homeowner’s lifestyle. • Precision Tech-Guided Gardening Guesswork is out. Driven by data, homeowners will integrate AI tools and smart apps small, dense pocket stands of trees and shrubs meant for their microclimate within their own yards. This trend directly mirrors growing public demand for easily accessible neighborhood mini parks, walking trails and community green spaces. It reinforces the idea that the personal yard is a vital piece of a larger, connected ecosystem. • “Prosumer†Purchases Homeowners will demand high-performance tools that off er commercial-grade power and durability, refl ecting a new to level up their outdoor spaces.
