By Bella diGrazia ITEM STAFF Two dozen people, with a wide range of po- sitions in Swampscott, signed up to make the town more age-friendly. After two months of seeking volunteers for the Swampscott for All Ages Committee, co-chairs Robert Powell and Heidi Whear are ready for the next step. The committee, partnered with the University of Massachu- setts-Boston Gerontology Institute and Cen- ter for Social & Demographic Research in Ag- ing, will implement a ve-year plan to make the town an age-friendly, age-ready commu- nity, says Powell. “Over the years of my ministry, I have been privileged to be with many wonderful peo- ple experiencing the joys and challenges of aging,” said Pastor Ian Holland of the First Church Congregational. “As a society, and as a town, I think we can do more to support one another. The committee, and the informal group that preceded it, is comprised of people with deep experiences working with seniors and broad expertise in the complex issues facing them, and I am very excited to learn from them as well.” Along with Holland, the committee in- cludes Swampscott Fire Chief Kevin Breen, a police of cer, a realtor, members of exist- ing boards and committees throughout the town, an audiologist, and members who have experience dealing with affordable housing.

The kids real- ly worked hard tonight.” Classical kept the effort going in the second half, hold- ing the Witches scoreless in the third before the bench came in to finish the rest of the game. Junior Lindsey Valeri and sophomore Sajada Dean each had five points in the fourth quarter. “It was good that tonight we were able to get 12 kids into the game,” Sawyer said. “All of those kids work hard in practice too. They probably get tired of playing against the starters and now they had their opportuni- ty to go out and show what they are made of. I was happy to see them execute. They executed what we wanted to do both offensively and defensively. That’s important for them and for us as a program.” The Rams (4-2) have another NEC matchup next Tuesday night (7) when they travel to Beverly. “They’re a really good team,” Sawyer said of the Pan- thers. “They’re well coached and a tough team.
