Alderman Cleaver
Yes, thank you.
President Wilshire
You bet.
Alderman Cleaver
First of all Happy Thanksgiving to all, to all the City Employees, all the Aldermen and everybody associated
with this call. Secondly, | would like to recognize Alderman June Caron for all the fantastic work she’s been
doing for the Nashua Senior Center. | think she doesn’t get recognized for all the effort she puts forth
there. And lastly, I’d like to say that the building at 55 Franklin Street was originally built by Nashua
Corporation. As you research test center laboratory for new products and a lot of fantastic work was done
there by very smart people in creating products that we sold all over the world. So that building has a lot of
history, just like to point that out. Thank you very much.
President Wilshire
Thank you, Alderman Cleaver. Anyone else? I’m sorry, | missed Alderman Caron. Alderman Caron and
then Alderman Clemons.
Alderman Caron
Oh well thank you. Thank you for those kind words Alderman Cleaver. At this time | want to say Park &
Recreation Department Kelly, Jeff, Sue and all the other employees and Mayor Donchess for helping us
celebrate 50 years of the Park Recreation Senior Outing which took place last Sunday at Stellos Stadium
with a drive by pick up dinner that was provided by Fratellos. And it was fabulous and | did get some phone
calls and emails from people saying that it was great that we were able to do this. Hopefully next year, we
will be able to celebrate 50 + 1, | can’t believe that it’s been 50 years of that event which started because
(inaudible) who was the Recreation Director at the time, felt that we had to find a way to thank our seniors
for being here, for being part of the City for so long and it was a way of saying thank you. So | just wanted
to give a shout out to them because it was cold out there, but it was nice, everybody was happy and |
myself appreciated it very much. And to all my colleagues and everyone throughout this City, please have
a safe, happy Thanksgiving. Thank you.
President Wilshire
Thank you. Alderman Clemons?
Alderman Clemons
Thank you very much. | was going to comment on what Alderman Cleaver was saying. | actually had, back
in the day, a radar detector that was made in that Franklin Street Building so it was definitely a pretty cool
place. But in any case, | want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving no matter how you are spending it,
please do it safely and make sure that you are adhering to all the guidelines. But most importantly don’t eat
too much, save some room for dessert. Thanks.
President Wilshire
Anyone else? Alderwoman Lu?
