Presidents Message
First I wish all of Houghs Neck a Happy New Year, lets hope it is a healthy
and prosperous 2015. Please see the poster below for our Community Service
Day being held on the MLK Holiday. Zoe Anthonopoulos has worked hard on
this and looks forward to promoting Community Service. Our Annual Tree
lighting went well thanks to the Quincy Fire Department and the firefighters
from Houghs Neck for hosting, the Quincy Police Department for their
assistance and traffic control. Thanks to the Parks Department who provided
the stage, also to Mayor Koch, Quincy delegation representing the city council
and school committee, State Rep Chan and State Senator Keenen. Once again
the Houghs Neck Congregational Church presented a Living Nativity. Great
Job and thank you for the delicious goodies and Hot Chocolate. The Atherton
Hough School PTO held a polar plunge on January 3rd, and no I did not go in
the water. but over 50 people did and made the Polar Plunge a success. They
also held a bake sale to add to the fund-raising event. We are planning the
annual free skate night for February and then the Bunny Fun Day for late
March. The Community Council is looking for volunteers to assist with these
events if interested please email us at hnccbulletin@yahoo,com. I also wish to
remind everyone of the council’s Scholarship Fund. Every year we receive
more and more applications and our finances are raised through donations. So
please help us invest in the Necks future by your tax deductible donations to
the scholarship fund. Dave DiBona

The Annual tree lighting was held on December 7 at 5PM in front of the HN

by to pass out Candy Canes and the Legion Post 380 placed a wreath at the
World War II Memorial. The Houghs Neck Congregational Church Presented
a Living Nativity, where members of the church stood in three stations as

Joe Fasci sent this message along with his membership:
Fortunately I get back to Quincy almost every year for a month since 1992
to visit the Neck and attend the shipyard reunion banquet.
Always get a kick out of the Mayors election. For years the Neck had a
self styled, self elected Mayor Mr. Riley. One year I brought a buddy of mine
home for dinner, as we passed Mr. Riley’s place he called out, “Hey Joe aren’t
you going to introduce your friend to the Mayor?” When we returned to base,
my buddy was telling the fellows how he had met the most down to earth,
regular, friendly politican he had ever met. I never did tell him the true story.
Many of the present Neckers don’t know how close we almost lost the
neck to “Urban Renewal”. A meeting was held at the high school where men
up on the stage had flip charts showing how urban renewal would be done.
The maps were colored from pink (slight renewal) to maroon (complete
renewal). As they showed various sections of the city, the colors were pink
or light red. After calls of “Get to the Neck” they finally showed the Neck,
mostly maroon, complete razing. The crowd became noisy. Queenie got up
on the stage walking back and forth saying that of all places she had been, she
liked Houghs Neck best and if they came to tear her home down, she would
meet them with a shotgun! That was a great night for the Neck and the end of
urban renewal.
At one time the Neck was made fun of, even in the Quincy Theater Stage
Shows, the comedians would joke about the Neck such as: Good girls go to
heaven, bad girls go to Houghs Neck etc. Then a man would run onto the
stage waving a telegram which he handed to the comedian who looked at it
and said “Oh My God a big wind storm just swept through Houghs Neck” It’s
the first time in 20 years Houghs Neck has been swept. Of course there would
be remarks about clamdiggers.
People of my age (87) were fortunate when Father Hart came to to the
Parish. He did so much for the Neck especially sportswise. Great man. I kept
in touch with him over the years and when he retired I would visit him at
Regina Cleri on my annual visit. He always loved the Neck. Guess thats
enough rambling. I’m sure Frank M and Leo K could tell you more on these
subjects. Good bye for now Joe.
Birthdays. Anniversaries.
My favorite flower.
He never forgot anything.
Including making his funeral arrangements ahead of time. I’m thankful
that he took care of the details in advance and saved me the added anxiety
of having to make dozens of decisions at a difficult time. And because he
paid for his services in advance, my family was not left with a financial
burden, but with peace of mind knowing his wishes will be honored.
The professionals of Deware Funeral Home took care of all of the details
and helped us plan a fitting tribute to a life well lived.

Pack 6 Quincy - News
HOUGHS NECK CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
Interim Pastor. Felix Carrion
Sunday Service 10:00am Fellowship Coffee Hour following Service
Cub Scout Pack 6 News - The Pack meeting in November was
the Rain Gutter Regatta. The boys did a great job assembing and
decorating their boats for the race. The cubs demonstrated great sportsmanship
during the races by encouraging everyone in the race to do their best. This
race is a primer for the spring time Pinewood Derby which is the highlight of
the year for many of the cubs.
Some of the boys from The Pack went on a Hike to Pond Meadow Park in
Braintree, a 320 acre conservation and recreation area spanning the Towns of
Weymouth and Braintree. The park offers a wide variety of habitats, including
meadows, woodlands and marshes, Smelt Brook and its tributaries, and a 20
acre pond and dam that provide flood control to protect the Weymouth Landing
area. The park also provides several miles of walking trails, including a two-
mile paved bike path. While the
boys were at the Park they learned
about safe hiking and earned their
hiking belt loop.
Other happenings in the pack:
Wolf Den is going bowling to
O’Lindy’s to work on their Bowling
Belt Loop. Tiger Den is going to
the Quincy Sun on their “Go See
It” to expore and find out how a
newspaper is created. The whole
pack will be participating this month
in an art project to make Christmas
cards for the overseas troops. The
pack is working with a local teach
who is hoping to send over 3,000
cards from Quincy school kids.

Always up for a challenge, the boys of Troop 6 decided
that just camping in the cold wasn’t enough, and on
November 15-16, the scouts built shelters with branches
and leaves and pine boughs and slept the night in the woods of Camp Massasoit. You might remember
that weekend, it was the first time this year that it got
really, really cold. Like 18 degrees cold! Everyone was
well prepared, and a number of the boys were convinced
that their shelters were warmer than a tent would have
been, and they are probably right! We also had the first
ever Troop 6 Cook Off on this trip. Each patrol had to
cook their own food over the open fire and present it to

Chicken Parmesan and pasta, the Task Force Patrol had
a hearty American Chop Suey, but the winner was the
Border Patrol with an amazing Beef Stew. Congrats to
Jake Walsh, Patrick Lee, Chris Fournier, and Brendan

The troop continues to work hard on advancement, with
Brody Gillespie and Andrew Engren making Tenderfoot,
Jake Gordon, Kevin Toler, and Ryan Laroche all earning
Second Class and Jake Gordon, Ryan Laroche, Brendan
Cavin, Kevin Toler, and Chris Fournier all earned both
Rifle and Archery Merit Badges, thanks to Dick Striano
and the Weymouth Sportsman’s Club (THANKS!!!)
Congrats as well to Jake Walsh for completing his Family
Life Merit Badge. He should be a Life Scout soon!
There is also a big group of boys that are coming to the
meetings early every week to work with Rich Sutherland
on Communications Merit Badge as well.
In addition, John Bonfiglioli completed the majority of his Eagle project
last month! John raised over $800 through an 11+ mile Hike-A-Thon that the
scouts participated in. He then worked with Carl Reich to build an Osprey
tower for the marsh by Broad Meadows. On November 29th, with the aid of a
team of scouts and leaders, we put the tower up on the island in the middle of
the marsh. The tower stands over 12’ tall and will hopefully provide a safe and
secure nest for a family of Osprey this spring. You can see the tower clearly
from the end of Moffat Road. As part of the project, John is also providing
Broad Meadows Middle School with 3 pairs of high powered binoculars and
a teaching guide about why Osprey are important to the marshes and our
ecosystem. Congrats John!

45 of us! It was crazy, but a lot of
fun! We were also proud to present
the “Pop Josselyn” Award to Don

of dedication to the Troop and Pack.
They exemplify the type of service
that Pop would have been proud of,
and we are going to miss them, and
wish them well in their next great
adventure in North Carolina.
Our next bottle drive is January
10th from 9-12 in Labrecque Field

I’m happy to have 2015 arrive and
I’m starting the New Year plunging
into Quincy Bay in support of the
Atherton Hough PTO Polar Plunge.
They say these plunges are like a
cleanse for a fresh start. 2014 was a
year with ups and downs for sure. On
a personal note, I’m blessed to have
my mom’s recovery from a difficult
health year, a complete exterior
renovation of my home, and now
I’m anxiously awaiting my younger
daughter’s decision of where she’ll
attend college in 2015.
On the City side of things, we ended
the year with an abrupt announcement
from Steward Healthcare that
effective 12/31 Quincy Medical
Center would be closed. Despite an
agreement with the Attorney General,
Steward proceeded to close most
of the hospital but will continue to
operate an emergency department at
the hospital location. I am very proud
to have been born at Quincy Hospital
and know many share that sentiment.
I feel strongly that a city of our
size needs a hospital. Mayor
Koch has retained an attorney
to represent the City’s interest in
the Attorney General’s agreement.
While the MA Department of Public
Health allowed Steward to close
the hospital and operate a satellite
emergency department, we still
have many questions relative to the
process, why the timeline wasn’t
followed and what this means for
our community health care going
forward. I also met in December
with a group of neighbors on the
planning of the Houghs Neck
Maritime Center/Public Landing
project. The engineering firm will
begin their work on the feasibility
study in January and once complete,
I will host a neighborhood meeting
to share their findings. Louis had
proposed to subdivide their parking
lot from the restaurant for a condo
development concept that wasn’t well
received by the neighbors, feeling
they prefer not to have any more
dense development in the area. A
neighbor suggested the City acquire
the parking lot and Mayor Koch
and the Community Preservation
Committeee are considering the
idea. There is a pending application
with the Zoning Board of Appeals
to consider the subdivision which is
being continued at this time. There
appears to be two options, one the
ZBA votes against the subdivision,
then both the restaurant and parking
lot parcels could get sold for
development, which the neighbors
were explicit in not wanting a dense
development at those locations or
the city can acquire the parking lot,
attach it to the HN Maritime Center/
Public Landing Parcels which could
benefit from additional land and the
restaurant continues. I know many are
interested in the outcome, and I will
keep you posted as more information
becomes available. Ward One has
seen a lot of development proposals
in 2014. A lot of the work of a Ward
Councilor is working with neighbors
and developers to guide them
through the process of the Planning
Board, Zoning Board, Conservation
Commission and other boards whose
approvals are required. The upper
part of Ward One had the bulk of the
projects. The South Shore YMCA
opened in 2014 albeit they still await

approval from the MA Department of
Environmental Protection relative to
the demolition of their old building
and the South Cove Manor opened
on Washington Street. These two
non-profit organizations invested
$30 million each in their projects
on the periphery of our downtown.
The City offices of the Planning
Department, Information Technology
and the School Department moved
into Coddington Hall. It’s great to
restore this iconic historic building
and keep these departments in a
municipal building instead of paying
rent as the school department had
been doing. Landscape work and
the creation of a visitor parking
lot at Quincy High School is still
underway. The approval of 10-18
Merrymount Road and the former
Temple Beth El on Hancock Street
will bring 76 units of modern housing
in the downtown area. A developer
acquired the former Central Middle
School and is currently working on
their plans which will be introduced
to the community in 2015. TD Bank
is beginning the permitting process
for new construction at the site of
D’Angelos and Verizon Wireless on
Southern Artery. One I was pleased to
see is the demolition of the National
Grid Substation on Sea Street as it’s
much more aesthetic entering our
peninsula area. While these are all
large commercial scale projects, I
give the same level of advocacy for
residential improvements in helping
to guide homeowners through the
process. The City Inspectional
Services Department also offers
workshops every Thursday afternoon
from 2 P.M. to 4 P.M. for those
needing assistance in understanding
their home improvement projects.
For those who still have their
Christmas Trees, Sunrise Scavenger
will do another curbside collection
the week of January 12th. Park on

Atherton Hough PTO
PL Polar Plunge
On a chilly first Saturday in
January there were over fifty
brave souls that plunged
into the frigid waters at
the Maritime Center by the
Public Landing. The First
Atherton Hough School
PTO “PL Polar Plunge”
was well attended as there
were as many spectators as
Plungers. The committee
did a great job of organizing
the event, and publishing it
on social media.
Fundraising Chair Nancy
Cross would like to thank
the Quincy Police Marine
Unit for their assistance
and the members of the
unit for being in the water
to keep watch over the
group. Also thanks to the
Quincy Fire Department
for being on shore to assist
anyone needing help. To
City Councilor Margaret
Laforest for her help with
the event. A very Special
thanks to all the members
that donated baked goods
for the bake sale and to
Louis of Houghs Neck for
their donation of Pizza’s for
the plungers.
