More than 50 Federal Street Neighborhood residents and friends gathered on Sunday, May 15 for a Spring Fling. The Fling had something for guests of all ages: sidewalk drawings, food, beverages, prizes and good company!
Thanks to Suzie Weldon and Tom Frary who rolled out the sidewalk and street at their house for the event.
Special thanks to Lori Hart prepared a presentation about the city’s traffic calming plans for our neighborhood. Lori shared the city’s plans and the FSNA Traffic Calming Committee’s suggestions for improvement. They are all located on this website. If you have not done so, please review the plans, the FSNA response and complete the short survey. It is important that the city receives proper feedback so that our neighborhood has the best traffic calming solution!
A big shout out to Jenn Lucht brought us wonderful entertainment: Joe Barbato on keyboard, Mark Early on Sax and Gray Sargent on Guitar. Of note is that Gray used to play in Tony Bennett’s band! We were honored to have them all and encourage friends catch additional performances at the Backbeat Brewing Company in Beverley and the Mayflower Restaurant in Ipswich.
Also of note are the event’s sponsors who allowed us to have a drawing for some great prizes!
All of our young sidewalk artists received a Russ Treadwell’s Ice Cream coupon.
