Terrific Season at Pool
Summer at the Mirabella Pool (North End Pool) has been a terrific season, especially when the weather was cooperative.
On a good hot day, the popular pool is filled from one end to the other with swimmers, sunbathers, families and friends enjoying themselves in the public pool, organized by the Nazzaro Community Center.
There are still some days left in the summer to enjoy the local pool.
The pool staff, as usual does a fantastic job.
Kids get a kick out of NEAA Soccer Program
For several years the North End Athletic Association (NEAA) has provided an educational and very active soccer program at Puopolo Park on Commercial Street.

Like all NEAA programs, the soccer program is coordinated by volunteers.
Take the time to get your children involved with this outstanding program, that starts Saturday, September 17.
Joi Salon hosts fundraiser for NEAD
It’s always nice to see local businesses getting involved with raising funds for local non-profit organizations.
Joi Salon, 2 Atlantic Avenue, did just that, holding a “Joi of Summer†fundraiser for North End Against Drugs (NEAD) providing a wide-range of services for a donation that will be used for the association’s youth, family and teen programs.
The salon also provided numerous great prizes, light fare and refreshments for those that made donations.
           Joi Salon has done this several times.
