Old Sandwich Road Race gives half marathoners a chance to finish “Boston Strong”

April 24, 2013 //  by admin

OSRR waives entry fee for Boston Marathon participants who were unable to finish due to tragedy

PLYMOUTH, MA…

Many runners dream of not only participating in, but completing the Boston Marathon. Due to circumstances beyond their control, many Boston Marathon participants were unable to cross the finish line. Though it’s impossible to bring that opportunity back, the Old Sandwich Road Race (OSRR) is trying to make it better by waiving the $50 entry fee to participate in the half marathon for those who ran in the Boston Marathon and could not finish.

“An entire region had its heart broken with the devastation that came with the events at this year’s Marathon. But one of the blessings that came with this tragedy is how everybody pulled together to both capture the perpetrators and begin the healing,” said Steve Dubin, communications director for the Old Sandwich Road Race. “This gesture cannot undo the damage that was done and the lives that were lost. But in a small way, it’s part of the healing process.”

One person, Julia Daly, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, has already accepted the OSRR’s invitation.

“Words cannot describe how I felt that day. I was running to raise money for Dana Farber Cancer Institute. My disappointment in not being able to finish meant very little compared to what was going on just a few miles ahead of me,” said Daly. “I’m grateful to have my family, friends and self come out of that day healthy and alive. I think the best way to honor those who perished and were hurt is to keep running and that’s what I plan to do in Plymouth this June and back in Boston next year.”

Boston Marathon runners can RSVP by e-mailing the following information to the OSRR Race Director at runosrr@gmail.com:

  • First and last name
  • Address
  • Age on race day
  • Cell number
  • Email address

The fourth annual Old Sandwich Road Race takes place on Sunday, June 2. Beyond the half marathon, OSRR includes a 5k and 10k. While the race may not have the history of the Boston Marathon, the course does.

Originally a trail used by the Wampanoag Native American tribe, Old Sandwich Road later became the nation’s first true public road and a stagecoach route to ferry passengers and mail back and forth between the Massachusetts towns of Plymouth and Sandwich. Today, the road remains pretty much as the Pilgrims left it–a wide, scenic, dirt road bordered by beautiful tall pine trees and towering oaks. It offers perfect views for runners and a dirt road surface that’s far kinder to the body than asphalt or cement.

“Besides history, the OSRR has a national and international flavor as well. As well as drawing runners from 28 states and four countries over the past two years, we had our first international winner—Kenyan Moninda Marube—setting a course record for the half marathon of 1:08:13 and winning a $3,000 winner-take-all purse,” said Dubin.

In addition to the winner-take-all purse for the half marathon male and female winner and special edition finisher’s medals for all half marathon participants, this year’s race includes:

  • Newest available timing technology.
  • Sponsor gift pack – Over $500 in discounts and coupons.
  • Great top finisher and age group awards.
  • Personalized finisher announcements.
  • An awesome high quality tech shirt!
  • Free food to all runners and their screaming fans!
  • Full uniformed Boy Scouts manning the water stops.
  • Professional, broadcast finish announcer.

OSRR’s early bird rate for the 5k ($22), 10k ($35) and half marathon ($50) ends on May 1. Prices will increase for runners registering at later dates.

The Old Sandwich Road Race benefits area charities, including The Home for Little Wanderer’s South Campus in Plymouth. The Baird Center School is a year-round residential and day school treatment program for youth aged 10-18 with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, educational and psychiatric issues.

What’s missing in bottled water for kids? Plenty.

April 18, 2013 //  by admin

Dr., Richard E. Wolfert, DMD
“The Toothboss”, Dr., Richard E. Wolfert, DMD

SOUTH WEYMOUTH, MA

Give parents a choice between soda, a juice box or a bottle of water for their children and most would probably go for the bottle water. What many people don’t realize is that opting for bottled water, though better for their children than soda or sugar-loaded fruit juice, is missing a key ingredient their children need: fluoride.

“A lot of people prefer bottle water or filtered water over tap water because of the taste. But tap water in many communities, including Weymouth, provides a source of fluoride that’s critical for growing strong, healthy teeth,” said Dr. Richard E. Wolfert, DMD, also known as “The Toothboss”, has a dental practice located at 1121 Main Street in South Weymouth.

According to the American Dental Association, children should consume fluoride through drinking water or supplements in the following amounts:

  • Birth to six months – none
  • Six months to three years – .25 mg/day
  • Three to six years – .5 mg/day
  • Six years to 16 years – 1 mg/day

“Fluoride is incorporated into developing teeth and that hardens the tooth and makes it more cavity-resistant. That’s why many dentists have younger patients take fluoride supplements, whether they live in a community where the tap water has fluoride or not,” said Wolfert.

To find out whether or not your town is a fluoridated community, the Massachusetts Dental Society has a map on their website, www.massdental.org. You can also call your town’s Water Department.

“Fluoride and fluoridation are important for the prevention of cavities. If your child is under 10 and not taking fluoride supplements, you should consult your dentist,” said Wolfert.

Dr. Wolfert’s practice is located at 1121 Main Street in South Weymouth, Massachusetts, and accepts most insurance plans. They also accept payment from most PPO and indemnity plans, including Blue Cross/Blue Shield and Delta Dental.

For more information on The Toothboss, visit Dr. Wolfert’s website at www.toothboss.com or call 781-335-0604 to schedule a consultation.

About The Toothboss

The Toothboss offers: comprehensive examinations (written treatment and treatment plan provided); cosmetics; crowns, bridges and tooth-colored restorations; partial and full dentures; periodontics (early cases treated); oral surgery; restoration of conventional and small diameter implants; and emergency services (24-hour emergency phone number available).

The Toothboss accepts most insurance plans. They also accept payment from most PPO and indemnity plans, including Blue Cross/Blue Shield and Delta Dental. They also accept all major credit cards and have arranged payment plans through CareCredit.

To schedule an initial consultation, please call 781-335-0604. For more information, visit www.toothboss.com.

Old Colony Elder Services Announces Multi-Community “Mayors for Meals ” A Huge Success

April 16, 2013 //  by admin

Mayor Linda M. Balzotti delivered a meal to Diane Damon

Old Colony Elder Services (OCES), a private, non-profit agency designated as an Aging Services Access Point (ASAP), recently held Mayors For Meals in the communities of Brockton, East Bridgewater, Plymouth and Stoughton.

Mayors For Meals is part of the Meals On Wheels Association of America’s March For Meals national campaign. Elected officials, law enforcement officers, Council On Aging (COA) Directors and OCES representatives from the four communities participated in the event to show their support for their community’s homebound and hungry seniors.

OCES’ Mayors For Meals event was held on Wednesday, March 20th in Brockton and Stoughton. Mayor Linda M. Balzotti and Diana DiGiorgi, Executive Director of OCES, delivered noon-time meals to Brockton area seniors. Selectman John Anzivino, Karen Hall, Director of Stoughton COA and Courtney Niebauer, Nutrition Program Manager at OCES, delivered the meals in Stoughton.

On March 21st, Mayors For Meals was held in East Bridgewater. Police Chief John Cowan, Sergeant Steve Brown and Officer Tallitha Connor of East Bridgewater Police along with Nancy Hill, Director of East Bridgewater COA; Timothy Valentine, Assistant Executive Director of OCES; and Courtney Niebauer, Nutrition Program Manager of OCES, delivered the noon time meals.

Mayors For Meals was held on March 26th in Plymouth. Chairman of Plymouth Selectman Matt Muratore along with Constance DiLego, Director of Plymouth COA and Timothy Valentine, Assistant Executive Director of OCES, delivered the meals to Plymouth seniors.

She continued, “We have seniors who are homebound and unable to manage their grocery shopping or attend one of our congregate meal sites. The Meals On Wheels program is absolutely essential to them, as they would otherwise not get a nutritious daily meal.
