Sargent Chairman JFK Library Foundation Dear Friends, Co-Chairs Paul and Sandy Edgerley Sixty years ago, in his Inaugural Address, President Kennedy set forth a vision for America. David H. Long Chairman and CEO Liberty Mutual Insurance He asked that his fellow citizens commit to serving their country, define their own call to greatness, and join him in rising to meet the challenges of the times with cour- age and hope. His words and deeds have echoed throughout the decades, continuing to inspire people of all ages and from all walks of life. While we cannot gather this year at the JFK Presidential Library, we are thrilled to come together in a new way and continue the Foundation’s tradition of celebrating President Kennedy’s belief that public service—and those who make it their life’s work—can be a force for good in our world. Never has it been more important for young people to realize their power to make a difference, and the JFK Library is honored to play a role in our national efforts to instill the ideals of civic engagement and service in tomorrow’s leaders. Thank you for your partnership and for joining us as we pay tribute to the quality that President Kennedy most admired—courage.

    JM Electrical Company, Inc. completes work at Warrior Ice Arena, the Boston Bruins practice facility August 08, 2016 - Owners Developers & Managers Brighton, MA JM Electrical Company, Inc. has completed project operations at Warrior Ice Arena, the Boston Bruins practice facility at the Boston Landing development. The project is the latest in a string of prominent jobs complete by JM, including the 85,000 s/f Hanscom Air Force Base Middle School and the 333,500 s/f PricewaterhouseCoopers building in the Seaport. Warrior Ice Arena - Brighton, MA “As our company grows, the projects are becoming more complex and our success with those jobs is fueling additional growth,” said John Guarracino, project manager of JM Electrical. The company installed power and control wiring for the ice rink’s refrigeration system and pre-packed mechanical rooms. In addition, JM wired the leak detection system, added sensors associated with the ice battery tank, and installed cooling towers, dehumidification units and associated air handling units. Work at the arena site began in December, 2014 and JM began installations in January of this year. It is adjacent to a 10-story office building, part of a 15-acre Boston Landing project. “There were many components associated with the ice rink system in the arena,” said Jay Rourke, project manager at NB Development Group and general manager of Warrior Ice Arena. “It was a pleasure working with JM, as the company’s staff is so skilled and experienced in the field.” The arena seats 660 fans, keeping with the intimate experience for those who will attend events there.

  • JFK Forever Stamp to Be Dedicated on Presidents Day February 20 Ceremony at Presidential Library
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Mark Saunders January 9, 2017 202.268.6524 [email protected] usps.com/news JFK Forever Stamp to be Dedicated on Presidents Day February 20 Ceremony at Presidential Library WASHINGTON — The U.S. Postal Service will commemorate the centennial of President John F. Kennedy’s birth by dedicating a Forever stamp in his honor at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston. The 10 a.m. February 20 Presidents Day ceremony, free and open to the public, will kick off the 6th Annual Presidents Day Family Festival. There is a fee to enter the library and museum to attend the festival. Children 17 years old and under are free. The stamp features a 1960 photograph by Ted Spiegel of Kennedy campaigning for president in Seattle. The artwork accompanying the stamp, showing Kennedy in a reflective pose, is a 1970 oil painting by Aaron Shikler (courtesy of the White House / White House Historical Association). The Forever stamp, available only at the event on Presidents Day, will be available nationwide in Post Offices February 21. In late January, customers may pre-order the stamps for delivery after February 21 at usps.com/shop. The public is asked to share the news using the hashtag #JFKStamps. “Our family is honored that the Postal Service is commemorating my grandfather with this stamp,” said Jack Schlossberg, grandson of John F. Kennedy. “As we mark the centennial of his birth, we hope that the stamp will be an enduring symbol of President Kennedy’s call for service, innovation, and inclusion, and his belief that we each have the power to make this world a better place.” Kennedy’s Legacy Born May 29, 1917, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the 35th president of the United States.
