Welcome to Ward 3 former Boston City Councilor Andrea Campbell

We honored these young Lynners for their contribution to the Clean Lynn Poster Board Contest.

CONGRATULATIONS to The Golden Monkey Cafe on their ceremonial grand opening hosted by the North Shore Latino Business Association Inc. I am honored to be here and joined fellow City officials and the Lynn State Delegation to support a Ward 3 family for bringing authentic and delicious Cambodian delicacy to Lynn.

The “Ghost of Goldfish Pond” is up. Make sure to take some photos, or dance with him when you’re in the area. Yes, he moves around. Good work GPA.

Together with Mayor Jared Nicholson, I am proud to represent Lynn and my fellow Lynn Councilors at the Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA)’s fall series Legislative Breakfast Meeting held here in Lynn. It is cool to be with fellow City Councilors and officials from other towns and cities networking and learning best practices with them. Each year, the MMA hosts a series of meetings in communities across the Commonwealth to give local leaders, legislators, and MMA staff the opportunity to network in an informal setting and learn about and discuss issues of importance at the local and state level..

In honor of the 100th Anniversary of FIRE PREVENTION WEEK this week. I took a side trip (from my trip from Canada to Lynn) to the small and beautiful town of Barton, Vermont, and took a "selfie" of their fire station. You might be wondering what is the significance of this post. I will tell you why...... A colleague of mine on the Lynn City Council Councilor Buzzy Barton is a retired firefighter of close to 30 years with the City of Lynn Fire Department, he is also a resident of Ward 3. I did this because I felt like it would be cool to do something in his honor and to recognize also the men and women of our Lynn Fire Department, and all the firefighters everywhere. #FirePreventionWeek2022

A tour of the historic Rhodes Chapel at Pine Grove Cemetery Chapel. This is the second time this year the chapel was opened for the public to see. We need to save this landmark for our future Lynners to experience the beauty and history of our city’s past.

CONGRATULATIONS to the newly-elected Aborn Elementary School PTO officers.

What an awesome thing to do during your lunch break, which is to volunteer to build beds for the A Bed for Every Child organization whose mission is to ensure all children have a bed of their own regardless of their family’s income. I am proud to join Lynn Mayor Jared Nicholson and all volunteers and some Lynn residents to help out with this worthy project.
