Our school pro- grams actively engage students in their own exciting and enriching learning process. We hope that stu- dents participating in this program will come to realize that communication, cooperation, sacrifice, and determination are necessary components in seeking justice and liberty. The American Revolution was one of the most daring popular movements in modern history. The Colonists were challenging one of the most powerful nations in the world. The Colonists had to decide whether to join other Patriots in the movement for independence or remain loyal to the King. It became a necessity for those that supported independence to find ways to help America win its war with Great Britain. To make the experiment of representative government work it was up to each citi- zen to determine the guiding principles for the new nation and communicate these beliefs to those chosen to speak for them at the Continental Congress. Those chosen to serve in the fledgling govern- ment had to use great statesmanship to follow the directions of those they represented while still find- ing common ground to unify the disparate colonies in a time of crisis. This symbiotic relationship between the people and those who represented them was perhaps best described by John Adams in a letter that he wrote from the Continental Congress to Abigail in 1774.

  • Postcard from Outer Brewster : 1 D : Wed, 15 Feb 2006 08:03:44 -0600
    Postcard from Outer Brewster : 1 D : Wed, 15 Feb 2006 08:03:44 -0600 There seems to be some confusion as to whether Outer Brewster Island in the Boston Harbor Islands National Park and Recreation Area is an isolated, bleak, lonely, abandoned former industrial site in the middle of nowhere, or a beautiful sanctuary for both wildlife and visitors right in the heart of our great new national park. The situation was complicated somewhat by the recent appearance of a grainy black and white photo- graph which was mistakenly captioned Outer Brews- ter Island, but was in fact another island altogether. To help clarify the matter, and to help you better un- derstand the impacts of the AES proposal to site the largest LNG terminal and storage depot in the country in our Boston Harbor Islands national park, beginning today we are distributing a series of photographs of this spectacular place. Attached (and included )you will find the first in this series, a beautiful photograph by Jeremy D’Entremont, which shows historic Boston Light in the foreground and Outer Brewster Island in the back- ground. Please distribute this image widely - to friends and family, decision makers, opinion leaders, co-workers, elected officials and their staffs, etc. Please credit photographer Jeremy D’Entremont for letting us use his fine work. If you would like a higher resolution version for publi- cation, please contact me by return email. Thanks for your attention to this important matter. Postcard from Outer Brewster : 2 D : Thu, 16 Feb 2006 06:25:00 -0600 Thought you’d like to see this article from today’s Boston Globe.

  • Winthrop Boat Ramp to Lovells Island, Boston Harbor. 9:45Am – 2:30Pm
    7_15_2020: Winthrop Boat Ramp to Lovells Island, Boston Harbor. 9:45am – 2:30pm. NSPN Wednesday Lunch Paddle. Bob L in white Explorer, Nancy H, Jane C, Sue H, Prudence B, Al C, Amy C, and Michael H. HT 7:45am 8.3ft, LT 1:46pm 1.8ft, tidal range 6.5ft, near neaps. 65F air, 3-5 foot moderate period swell, larger in Presidents Road channel, winds NE >10kts. Overcast, then clearing. This was a leisurely paddle through the inner harbor islands. It included some discussion of geological features that will be topics in an upcoming NPSN geology paddle. The launch site at the Winthrop Boat Ramp (Ferry Station) is great – a friendly harbormaster and plentiful parking steps to the put-in. Because all registered paddlers were present we launched about 15 minutes early into an overcast, wet and cool morning. Figure 1 shows the ground track for the paddle. Figure 1: Ground track for 7_15_2020 paddle from Winthrop Boat Ramp to Lovells Island (blue line) Approximate offset for President Roads current (red arrows). As we rounded Point Shirley, I was struck by the dead quiet. There were very few planes taking off from Logan Airport, and what a joy! I remember earlier paddles here cursing the continuous roar of jets, one after another, and wondering where the heck everyone was flying to when paradise existed just below them. Well, COVID is not worth it in exchange; but the peace that descended on this little corner of Boston Harbor was wonderful. Over the airport we saw a spectacular view of Boston framed by a clouded sky.
