The Northern Strand Community Trail – a project that was 30 years in the making – reached a milestone this year when sections connecting Saugus with four cities (Everett, Lynn, Malden and Revere) were completed, enabling bicyclists and walkers access from inland to the coast. Many people of all ages have been enjoying the bike trail for a wide range of reasons: recreation, exercise, nature watching, and simply as a safe and convenient way to get around town for errands, work, school and appointments. “I would like to thank Governor Baker, Lieutenant Governor Polito, and Secretary Card from the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs for their support of this important regional initiative,” Saugus Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree told Malden Mayor Gary Christenson addresses the crowd.

Among those celebrating the project’s completion with Town Manager Crabtree were the mayors of Everett, Lynn, Malden and Revere – top area elected officials who are connected to the bike trail project. Paving that began in 2020 now allows people to bicycle on paved paths from Everett to Lynn, mostly along the original Saugus Branch Railroad right of way. There are signposts showing mileage, informational signs and crossing lights at many grade crossings as well as benches and bridges to make using the trail comfortable and pleasant. The trail – spearheaded by Bike to the Sea, Inc. in 1993 – is built in a continuous 7.5-mile stretch through Everett, Malden, Revere and Saugus. It also includes Lynn.

Center for Civic Education and Malden Reads sponsor informative and valuable learning project (The following info is courtesy of the Massachusetts Center for Civic Education (MACCE) and the Malden Public Schools.) T he Salemwood Elementary School 4th grade English Language Learners (ELL) class, which has 21 students from six diff erent countries, learned about rules, laws and democracy with the assistance of Malden Reads and the Massachusetts Center for Civic Education (MACCE). This civics-based pilot program was introduced by the Malden Public Schools as a model project for these Grade 4 students, based upon fi ve lessons in the textbook “We the People: The Citizen & Democracy.” This was combined with the Malden Reads involvement with activities from community representatives, who shared their experiences of coming to the United States and their adjustment to life in America. Students learned about important issues relevant to their own community This allowed the students to learn important issues about government and included activities relevant to their school and community of Malden. This project used the expertise of two Malden teachers, Alan Rodriguez and Violet Walsh, who worked with these ELL students. Students from Afghanistan, Brazil, China, Haiti, Venezuela and Vietnam learned about each other – their similarities and diff erences. Through various instructional approaches, the students learned the values of rules at home, school and the community and then about the need for laws through their city, state and nation. They then learned about diff erent types of governments – rule by one, rule by the few and rule by all – distinguishing between good and bad types of governments. They learned about democracy and its benefi ts as well as its costs. Finally, they studied the importance of balancing rights with responsibilities. Community representative visits coordinated by Malden Reads For each of these important lessons, there were visits by community representatives who supported the importance of why rules, laws, democratic values and principles are important to them through a myriad of activities to which the students were introduced. The students met people who lived in Malden whose native countries were China, Vietnam, Syria and Venezuesionate community involvement; to Roger Desrosiers, President of the Massachusetts Center for Civic Education, for his time and effort to this project. Many thanks also go to Malden Mayor Gary Christenson who supported this program by attending the fi nal day and presenting the students Mayor Gary Christenson commended the students and teachers from Salemwood School’s ELL 4th Grade class which participated in a civics-based education program sponsored by Malden Reads and the Massachusetts Center for Civic Education (MACCE).

The students were provided age-appropriate books, such as “She Persisted: Claudette Colvin,” written by Malden-born author Lesa Cline-Ransome, in which themes related to empathy, overcoming discrimination and using one’s voice were reinforced. The integration of community with learning about the importance of terms like majority, voting, elections and more through these interactions solidifi ed their learning. Theme of civic participation leads to civic education The overall theme of civic participation with concepts from the materials provides a great introduction to civic education. The opportunity to have persons outside their school yet within their community provide support and identifi cation was important in their realization of why they should learn about their new government. Malden Reads and MACCE have made a major commitment to these goals and know that, through the eff orts of the teachers in developing and presenting these lessons, the students will realize the signifi cance of civic strength, and the foundation for greater understanding will be established. MACCE thanks the Malden Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Ligia Noriega-Murphy, for her recognition of the importance of civic learning. Thanks go as well to Victoria Mulkerin, Malden Public Schools (MPS) Director of Literacy and Title I, for her infl uence and great interest in pursuing this pilot program. Also included are thanks to MPS ELL director Jen McCabe, Salemwood Principal Van Huynh; to the teachers, Alan Rodriguez and Violet Walsh, who were engaged and extraordinary; to Linda Zalk, Education Director for Malden Reads, for her pasand teachers with certifi cates for their successful conclusion of this vital project. As teacher Alan Rodriguez said at the end of the pilot program, “If this pilot can work with ELL students, it defi nitely can work with all students in the 4th grade.” AUTOTECH DRIVE IT - PUSH IT - TOW IT!

New data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services shows that ARPA’s historic investments provided Massachusetts with $314.4 million for its Child Care Stabilization Program, funding 6,530 centers caring for 202,400 children in the Commonwealth. “Democrats know that child care is essential to families and the economy. We made a historic investment to keep care centers open, lower child care costs for families, and help parents return to work,” said Assistant Speaker Clark. “Additionally, the American Rescue Plan allowed child care providers to invest in their staff and tackle the ongoing workforce shortage that we face across the care sector. This law was critical to our recovery and ensured that the early education sector we all rely on survived the pandemic.” In Massachusetts, the ARPA child care stabilization funding The ARPA Child Care Stabilization Program has provided vital relief for child care centers and families across the nation: 1.

Malden Community Electricity is an alternative to National Grid’s default supply. While National Grid can only go out to bid twice a year, Malden Community Electricity has more fl exibility to get more competitive rates. Energy will still be delivered by National Grid, but residents get the potential benefi ts of a lower cost because of the City program. Additionally, the City will increase the amount of renewable energy used in the standard plan for Malden Community Electricity customers. “Malden Community Elecing forward. This program will provide a great service to residents, while supporting our community’s desire to be more sustainable and resilient.” Malden expects to submit its Malden Green Logo tricity will be a great for our residents and for the planet,” said Mayor Christenson. “Malden is glad to be joining many communities around Massachusetts in seizing this opportunity, which will give our community more control over our electricity rates and increase our use of renewable energy.” Councillor-at-Large Carey McDonald is chair of the City Council’s ad hoc Energy Efficiency Committee and a member of Malden’s Energy Effi ciency and Sustainability Commission. He stated, “I am proud to see Malden Community Electricity movplan to state regulators before the end of the year. Ultimately the timeline for the program to start will be determined by when the Commonwealth approves the plan, which is expected to be in 2023.

My grandparents were immigrants from Lithuania, one step ahead of the Cossacks, who settled in Boston’s West End. In 1947 Frank was a crewman on Exodus 1947, the ship that tried unsuccessfully to bring thousands of Holocaust survivors to Palestine. The Exodus traveled from Baltimore and, while attempting to run a British blockade near Haifa, was halted and boarded. Two teenagers and an American sailor were killed. More than 100 were wounded, including my uncle, who was clubbed nearly to death. Eight months after the incident, the State of Israel was born. The story provided inspiration for the Leon Uris novel “Exodus” and later the movie with Paul Newman and Sal Mineo. My uncle returned home and earned a master’s degree in Library Science from Simmons College. In 1957, he was a block captain of the Committee to “Save the West End.” Eventually displaced to Medford, he worked for years at the Medford Public Library and served as Director from 1969 to 1989. • Throwback Thursday on Friday: Malden High School class of 1967 (greatest graduating class ever?) – check out some of the alumni that would later go on to make Malden the outstanding city we live in today: Offi cer David Brooks, “Bonesy’s” big brother Peter “Panama” Carroll, Gina’s dad and Pearl Street Bakery’s (the late) Al Aretusi, former Ward 4 Councillor Billy Coleman, Outreach worker Paul Collyer, Ward 2 Councillor Paul “Hoss” Condon, Vietnam War hero, the late Kevin “KC” Crowe, Joe Danca (Danca Insurance), Joe Della Gatta (best pizza maker at DiPietro’s ever), Tommy Doucette, Walter “Figgy” Figelski, Larry Gersh (Remember Larry’s antique/junk shop in Malden Square?), Henry Gennetti, Democratic consultant extraordinaire Mike Goldman, Gayle Greenwood, Offi cer Mike Hardiman, Ed Hichborn, the late Bobby Hyde, Wayne MacKay, Angela Molinari of the Pearl Street Molinaris, recently retired Malden Retirement Board Director Kevin Morrison, Amerige Parks’ (and Jimmy Cahill’s brother-in-law) Joe Repucci, (YMCA legend) Major Smith, Jean (Hall of Famer) Tomasello and Susan Vatalaro. That is one great class. “In the year 2525 if Malden is still alive....” With all due respect to Zager and Evans, whose brilliant but gloomy take on the future leaves one with a sense of dread as we travel down the road of life, I predict right here and now, on the pages of the Malden Advocate, that Malden will survive as it always has. Predictions for the year 2525, 508 years into future Malden: • Gary Christenson will be in his 227th term as Mayor of Malden – kept alive through the miracle of modern science much like the 1962 sci-fi horror fl ick “The Brain That Would Not Die.” • The newest City Hall building is located on Pearl Street and is called “Peter Caso City Hall” after Facebook sensation Peter (‘All About Malden’) Caso’s close but no cigar, valiant but unsuccessful, underdog run for mayor in the year 2026.

In three separate incidents reported to the Middlesex Sheriff’s Office, individuals working in the medical field reported receiving calls telling them they had failed to appear as expert witnesses in court matters. The scammer, or scammers, utilized a fake name and identified themselves as a member of the Middlesex Sheriff’s Office. In one instance, a scammer told one professional that they may have to pay $10,000 in fines and fees.Fortunately, none of those who reported the calls to the MSO lost any money. “Often times these arrest scams revolve around a failure to appear for jury duty or pay taxes, but these calls are the first reported directly to the MSO involving a failure to appear as an expert witness,” said Sheriff Peter J. Koutoujian.“For in the state Senate since 2014. He will be facing Republican Ed Dombroski in the November election.

Separate weekend fatalities claim lives of Malden residents State Police investigating fatal crash in Boston Advocate Staff Report A t approximately 9:40 p.m. on Saturday, Troopers from the State Police-Tunnels Barracks and State Police-South Boston Barracks, along with Boston Fire and EMS, responded to a crash between a vehicle and pedestrian on Route 93 in Boston in the area of the South Bay shopping center. The pedestrian – Mark McAuliffe, 49, whose last known permanent address was in Malden and was, reportedly, homeless – suffered fatal injuries. A preliminary investigation revealed that the victim was attempting to cross Route 93 in the area of exit 15 from west to east. The pedestrian crossed the southbound lanes and the median and then entered the northbound side, where he was immediately struck by a 2019 Toyota Highlander sport utility vehicle in the left lane. The impact threw the victim back across the median into the left travel lane of the southbound side. The Toyota operator, a 53-year-old man, stopped immediately and called 911 to report the crash and was cooperative with investigating Troopers. At this time there is no indication that the operator was driving in a reckless manner or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Reportedly, no charges related to the crash are expected. The investigation into the facts and circumstances of the crash is ongoing and is being conducted by Troop H of the Massachusetts State Police with assistance from the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section, State Police Detective Unit for Suffolk County and State Police Crime Scene Services Section.
