Scituate resident and former Firefighter recognized for Random Act of Kindness and Sunny Disposition.

DATELINE: PLYMOUTH, MA…

Brian Poitras, a Scituate resident and a recent retiree of the Lowell Fire Department, once again did not hesitate when help was needed. 

While visiting the Scituate Senior Center, Brian was chatting with acquaintance Anne Tucker Roberts. 

Anne mentioned that she was concerned that during a hot and humid spell in July her air conditioner was not functioning.  Service companies were not responding to her telephone calls or were scheduling her out for several weeks. Anne and her 85-year-old husband, John, were not only uncomfortable, but at risk.

Out of the kindness of his heart, Brian ventured into his own basement, brought up a spare portable unit and installed it in the Roberts’ home.

“It is a story of what this country has lost. He has renewed my faith that people really DO care about others!” noted Anne.

Thus, Brian Poitras is the first to be recognized by the Sunny Disposition campaign sponsored by Plymouth Solar Energy.  In addition to recognition, Brian will receive a $50 gift certificate to Strega Café, one of Plymouth’s finer restaurants.

Know someone who has recently performed a random or intended act of kindness?

Could be something as simple as taking out the trash for an elderly neighbor.  Or helping with heavy lifting of a new couch.  Or sharing an extra plate of homemade brownies.

Plymouth Solar Energy is recognizing Sunny Disposition winners monthly.  The winner will receive dinner for two at one of Greater Plymouth’s leading restaurants and a spiffy pair of sunglasses.

Mining the Golden Age of Podcasting. PR Works, based in Plymouth, Massachusetts announces podcasting services.

Experts and listeners agree, we are in the Golden Age of Podcasting. More than half of American homes tune into a podcast regularly. Why not YOURS?

Given this high audible trend, PR Works, based in America’s hometown of Plymouth, Massachusetts, has launched a podcast service. The service ranges from establishing a Podcast strategy to recording and editing the show to promoting it. 

“Podcasting allows you to control the message, control the medium and tap into new clients, strategic partners and referral sources,” notes PR Works Founder Steven V. Dubin, a Plymouth, Massachusetts resident.

He added, “Podcasting is another story-telling channel and the one-to-one audience it creates is powerful. Where most get stalled is in having a clear niche topic and managing all the details of technology, arranging guests, editing the raw footage, uploading each segment to YouTube and the many podcast portals and then promoting the podcast to expand the audience. We help boil that down and get it done.”

Here are some of the considerations to podcasting.

First, the “Why”? 

Are you doing this to position yourself as “the” expert? Book prospects as guests and build those relationships? Generate solid content for social media? Enhance SEO? Provide useful information to your core audience?

Your answer to ALL of the above should YES!

Second, the theme?

What is your unique programming theme? Do you expand upon family business, start-up business, mid-market business? Are you focusing on a niche? Young families? Senior living? Middle-age madness? Choose a theme and build upon it.

Third, the Title?

The title of your podcast should give a hint about the content and entice us in. No surprise about what “Planet Money” is about. “Football Weekly” tells it all. You could get clever, but you don’t want to be obscure and leave us guessing.

Fourth, Scheduling?

Most new podcasters can’t keep up a pace of more than once a month. That being said, it is worthwhile to record the first three segments all at once. In our binge watching/listening world, give your audience a good dose of what you do. 

It is best to develop a schedule and editorial outline of segments for each business quarter.

Fifth, Guests?

Let’s face it, unless you are stand-up comedian or experienced performer, you probably can enhance broadcasts with a guest or two. Guests add insight, variety and color. 

The challenge is to book them, prepare them, obtain background materials, etc. That is a critical part of the process.

Six, the Technology?

How will you record? How will you upload to key podcast portals (Spotify, Itunes, etc.).How will you promote each episode? PR Works has reviewed a wide range of platforms and came up with an inexpensive and thorough solution that includes developing a vlodcast (video of the podcast) and the audio podcast at the same time.  Thus, you are bolstering a YouTube channel and reaching out via key podcast portals.

Seventh, the Promotion?

Now you’ve gone to all the trouble of creating a podcast, how do you get it out there?

Social media posts, e-newsletter, news release and blog posts help move it along.  These messages should ALSO be prepared and customized for your guests to share with their audiences.

Ready to go “live”?  5-4-3-2-1.  For additional information about podcasting, contact PR Works at www.PRWorkZone.com, (781) 582-1061, 18 Main Street Extension, Suite 409, Plymouth, MA.

Don’t do Divorce alone. Divorce workshop offers support and practical direction.


It’s impossible to understand how painful divorce is, if you haven’t been through it.

The newly formed Divorce Support Group provides a safe, welcoming place to work through your feelings with other people facing similar challenges. Together, we explore denial, fear, loneliness, friendships, guilt/rejection, grief, anger, and whatever else arises. We will also discuss practical ways to take care of yourself. 

The workshop is scheduled for eight Thursdays,  6pm – 7:30 p.m. March 7 and includes March 7, March 14, March 21, March 28, April 4, April 18, May 2 and May 9 at the Maverick Wellness, 67 Coddington Street, #209, Quincy MA 02169.  Cost is $240 for the 8-week session.  Group support works best when members can commit to attending all the sessions.  Participants are encouraged to sign up only if  they believe they will be able to attend all the sessions.

This small support group (limit is 6-8 members) will provide a safe, accepting space to discuss the emotional challenges of your divorce, talk with people who “get it,” and learn from each other.

Specifically, the workshop explores practical ways to take care of yourself, cope with stress, how to talk with your children, meeting with your lawyer, ways to co-parent with your ex, feelings around the family home, personal belongings and more.  

The workshop was developed and will be led by Frances T. Spillane, a divorced mother of two children and recently remarried.  She is an LMHC and Life Coach who supports clients in creating meaningful, fulfilling lives.

“When I look back at my divorce, I often wonder ‘What was wrong with me?’”  She added, “Why did I try to do it all alone?  Why didn’t I ask for more help? Why didn’t I do more to help myself?  Why didn’t I find more support?  What was I thinking? Having survived that gauntlet, I developed this workshop.”

Fran is on her third career.  Prior to becoming a therapist, she was a tax accountant, then a stay-at-home mom. Her own journeys through transition give her a deep sense of empathy and compassion, as well as the knowledge that change provides the opportunity to create a more joyful life. Her authentic and unconditional positive regard for clients supports their honest exploration of their most important issues.

Fran practices in Attleboro and Quincy, MA.  She earned her M.A. at Bridgewater State University, and her B.A. at University of Notre Dame.

Serving Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Southern New Hampshire, TLC Supply is a “one-stop-shop” renowned for their comprehensive hardscape and masonry building materials used in commercial and residential construction. The company celebrates the versatility of natural stone thin veneer in their expanded showcase of design possibilities at their showroom.

Natural thin stone veneer is ideal for both commercial and residential projects. It is a genuine quarried stone with a thinner profile as it has been precisely cut or split. It lends timeless elegance to entryways, feature walls, facades, columns, fireplaces, and outdoor kitchens.

TLC Supply’s showroom features a wide range of stone types, colors, and textures sourced from trusted quarries. Granite, Quartzite, Bluestone, Fieldstone, Limestone and Sandstone are several different types of stone offered at TLC Supply.

Natural stone thin veneer is available in a variety of cuts, shapes and patterns, allowing for a custom look that complements any architectural style. Each shape provides a distinct aesthetic, from rustic to contemporary. Natural stone thin veneer collections encompass warm earth tones, cool grays, and mixed color blends to complement any architectural style from classic New England homes to contemporary designs. 

“Natural stone thin veneer is lighter and easier-to-install, yet it has the same durability, texture and color as traditional stone,” explained Rolanda Ross-Le, Vice President and General Manager of TLC Supply. “Essentially, contractors and homeowners can obtain the beauty of real stone without the weight, cost, or structural limitations of full-bed stone veneer, making it ideal for a variety of applications.”

Taking to the road to build social and vocational skills. LEARN Academy of Scottsdale, AZ, awarded new van.

SCOTTSDALE, AZ… LEARN Academy, formerly Chrysalis Academy, a state-approved private day school in Scottsdale serving students with autism and related disorders in grades K-12, has received a donation of a new van to enhance student learning opportunities beyond the classroom.

The new minivan, valued at $80K, was donated by the Chrysalis Academy Parents Association (CAPA), a non-profit organization that helps support the unique and special needs of the students, as well as contributes to their supportive learning environment.

The 12-person van accommodates five to six students along with support staff and will be utilized throughout the week for school-related activities. Operating within a 10-15 mile radius of the campus, the vehicle will provide transportation for both education and community-based experiences.

As the school’s first official transportation, the new van enables students to travel beyond the school campus to work on activities of daily living, communication, life, and vocational skills.

For high school students, the van is used for vocational training, providing transportation to businesses where they can gain essential skills and job experience. These opportunities may include positions such as stock associates, cashiers, and other community-based employment roles.

The van is also used to transport younger students on field trips to restaurants, stores, and other outings, helping these students gain experience in their community beyond the school environment. They will be exposed to new settings and new social opportunities. Students will have opportunities to strengthen communication skills, learn how to make purchases, order food, exchange money, and engage appropriately with community members.

“Many of our students need the extra help of our support staff, and we’ve received positive feedback from parents who are thrilled that their children are able to get out in the community and obtain success beyond the home and school environment,” said Abbie Tavizon, M.Ed, BCBA, LBA, Site Administrator for LEARN Academy Scottsdale. “The new van facilitates an important opportunity for students to engage in the community and develop necessary skills for success.”

Outside the Box. Mark’s Moving & Storage Introduces Reusable Moving Crates for Easier, More Efficient Home and Office Relocations

Mark’s Moving & Storage, Westborough, MA, is making residential and commercial moves more efficient and environmentally friendly with the availability of durable, reusable moving crates designed to simplify packing, protect belongings, and reduce waste.

Unlike traditional cardboard boxes, moving crates are constructed from heavy-duty plastic that provides superior protection for valuable items during transport. Their uniform size makes stacking easier and safer, while integrated handles allow for convenient lifting and carrying. Because the crates arrive ready to use, customers can eliminate the time and expense of purchasing, assembling, and disposing of cardboard boxes.

For businesses relocating offices, moving crates help streamline the packing process and minimize downtime. Employees can quickly pack workstations into secure, stackable containers that are easy to label and transport, helping organizations resume operations faster in their new location.

Homeowners also benefit from the convenience of reusable crates. The sturdy containers protect household belongings from crushing and moisture, making them ideal for everything from kitchenware and books to electronics and décor. Once the move is complete, the crates are simply picked up, eliminating the hassle of breaking down and recycling cardboard boxes.

“Moving is stressful enough without worrying about flimsy boxes or piles of packing materials,” said a spokesperson for Mark’s Moving & Storage. “Our reusable moving crates provide a cleaner, stronger, and more convenient solution that saves time while helping customers enjoy a smoother moving experience.”

The reusable crate program complements Mark’s Moving & Storage’s comprehensive portfolio of residential and commercial moving solutions. From local and long-distance moves to packing, storage, warehousing, records management, and international shipping, the company provides customized services to meet the unique needs of homeowners, businesses, and organizations throughout the region.

Mark’s Moving & Storage is also committed to giving back to the communities it serves through its nonprofit division, Mark’s Northeastern Furniture Foundation. Established in 2011, the 501(c)(3) organization repurposes discarded furniture and distributes it to charities and individuals in need. Working with community partners, the foundation has donated more than 1 million pounds of furniture and distributed thousands of pieces to local organizations, including the United Way of Tri-County and Household Goods.
