Letter: Santa's boat arrival a success

Anonymous The Salem News The Salem News Thu Dec 20, 2012, 04:00 AM EST

To the editor:

On behalf of the Beverly Harbormaster Department, I would like to thank all those who participated in Santa’s arrival by lobster boat to the Beverly Harbor Center on Saturday, Dec. 15. I would particularly like to thank Edith Serpa of the Elliott Street Dunkin’ Donuts, Janice Preston of Casa De Moda Gifts, Stop & Shop, Sterling and Swift Limousine Service and Shaw’s. I would like to extend a very special thank you to Capt. Mike Malewicki of the fishing vessel Janie M., Capt. Dana Rowand of the fishing vessel Red Devil, and finally Capt. Larry Tamilio and the Tamilio family. This event would not be possible without the contributions from these individuals and local businesses. This event continues to support local fishing families and the waterfront community each year. Your time and support is greatly appreciated.

Thank you again for all your continued support and best wishes during the holiday season!

Mark Souza

Deputy harbormaster

Our view: SwampWalk a welcome addition

Don't let the relatively short distance of the new Danvers SwampWalk fool you -- the third-of-a-mile boardwalk came about as a result of hundreds of hours of volunteer work, and the region is better for it. The wooden walkway passes through the swamp

Column: From Silicon Valley, advice for graduates

For many college seniors these days, the thought of approaching graduation is burdened by fear of unemployment and lack of direction. This isn't helped by the fact that almost every day someone asks what we're doing next. As a graduating senior at a

Column: A victory for town workers

Former U.S. Speaker of the House and Massachusetts titan Thomas "Tip" O'Neill famously said that, "All politics is local." Perhaps no greater demonstration of that slogan of democracy exists than the Town Meetings that occur in municipalities across

Letter: Historic vistas need protection

To the editor: I've been noticing a common thread of appropriate concern in the local area over proposed new commercial buildings. One of our neighboring towns to the south is buzzing about a big, new building downtown that is blocking ocean views fr
