CST Impact Reminiscent of SLV
"CST Landscaping and Stormwater Discussed", June 28th edition ofThe Cricket; Matt Connor of Hancock Associates, explaining the scope and nature of the proposed project, said, "As you can see, we don't have many neighbors." This should sound familiar to alert citizens, because Geoff Engler often made the same statement in regard to the impacts of SLV's proposed 40B project on the other side of Upper School Street. I do not mean to put CST into the same basket with SLV, as they (CST) appear from all indications to be good corporate citizens with a strong environmental ethic, but in both cases this statement refers to the absence of human habitation nearby.

BHS Baseball & Softball Enjoy Great 2024 Seasons
THIS ARTICLE IS DEDICATED TO BILL WALTON AND BILL RUSSELL. TWO GREAT CELTIC CHAMPIONS. SPEAKING OF CELTIC CHAMPIONS, YOUR BOSTON CELTICS ARE 2024 NBA CHAMPIONS. On May 27th, 2024, the sports world got news that a hero had passed of cancer at 71 years young. Bill Walton, who in his own right was an unbelievable athlete. An MVP, a sixth man of the year and a multi time champion with both the Portland Trail Blazers and my beloved (hopefully soon to be world champions), Boston Celtics. Walton’s post player profile wasn’t shabby by any means. A great scorer and an uncanny ability to be a significant playmaker from the block. Something that we’ve only seen a couple of times. Bill Russell before him, Hakeem Olajuwon at the same time as Walton and Nikola Jokic today.
