Save That Stuff Tour

The Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA) and its partners from ABM had the opportunity to tour Save That Stuff in Charlestown, MA. Founded in 1990 by Erik Levy, Save That Stuff is a waste collection facility that offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional waste disposal methods. Save That Stuff helps educational and governmental institutions like the MCCA uphold commitments to corporate social responsibility, sustainability, and cost control. The MCCA has worked with Save That Stuff for 10 years to reduce our convention centers’ recyclable waste. In a typical year, the MCCA recycles an average of 774 tons between the Hynes and the BCEC with Save That Stuff!

Springfield’s MassMutual Center to see $93 million in upgrades

State officials announced a $93 million, five-year package of upgrades to the MassMutual Center, calling it a commitment to the economic development of the city and to keeping the successful minor league Thunderbirds Hockey team in Springfield.

 

The upgrades, announced Thursday, include some improvements that are underway, such as a refurbished concession area. Other improvements that are important, but less visible to visitors, include work to the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system, as well as the fire alarm and sprinkler systems.

 

“This historic investment will modernize the facility, improve accessibility, enhance the experience for visitors and ensure the MassMutual Center remains a destination for conventions, sporting events, concerts and community gatherings for years to come,” Gov. Maura Healey said.

“There’s nothing more rewarding to me than seeing a city-kid on a boat for the first time — smiling, confident, and amazed after catching their first fish. To keep our program running, we rely on the generosity and support of programs like the MCCA’s Community Partnership Grants. Their commitment to community programs, particularly youth programs, makes our small operation and all those smiles possible.”

Watch them whip. Gen Z is leading a line dance revival in Boston.

In the back of The Harp, a sports bar across the street from North Station, a blonde woman in denim shorts and cowboy boots grabbed her friend’s arm. “This is it!,” she exclaimed, pulling her companion onto the dance floor. It was a Thursday at 10:30 p.m., and “Burn It Down” by Nickleback had just come on at full volume.

 

Under colorful flashing lights, about 30 young Bostonians stomped their boots in unison and did a high kick with a little clap. Some people sang along; one dancer with a long dark-brown ponytail, wearing a white miniskirt and sneakers, called out the steps for a couple of beginners stumbling along in front of her.

 

The soccer fans at the front of the bar watched the World Cup with a mass of Gen Z line dancers bobbing in the background.
