Segment Content / Focus Description

Mayor's Celebrity

Softball Game

On One North Main you often see Mayor James Harrington appear in our segments.  For example, many of you may remember the Mayor peddling around on a low ride bicycle or just last week the Mayor appeared on our segment “Cribs”.  Well this week the Mayor is at it again, this time athletically as he continues the tradition started by the previous mayor – a charity softball game.  Here now on One North Main a look at that recent night.

 

Marvelous Margin Hagler

Benefit Appearance in Brockton

Brockton is “The City of Champions” and the nickname is all encompassing and just doesn’t reflect one aspect of our city.  But recently one of our national, perhaps international, champions came back to Brockton for a fundraiser.  Marvelous Marvin Hagler came back to the City for a fundraiser with his name to benefit Massasoit Community College and the Save Our Sports program of Brockton.  BCA was there to record the boxing and several interviews and here now on one north main we let Mr. Marvelous Marvin Hagler share is thoughts on the night.

 

Brockton Neighborhood

Health Center Groundbreaking

It all started back in 1992 as a concept to benefit the citizens of the city and finally the Brockton Neighborhood Health Center began providing services in 1994.  Well a lot has changes since then, the center expanded rapidly and has grown into a multi-site clinic; however, its mission of providing desperately needed health and dental services to low-income and marginalized populations in Brockton and surrounding communities has never changed.  And now the center will have a new home in downtown Brockton and One North Main was on hand at the ground breaking.

 

Night Out Against Crime 2006

 

For almost a decade the police, the DA’s office, the Mayor’s office, fire department and concerned citizens have dedicated a night in Brockton to provide diverse resources to educate and protect our cities most important export, our children.    As organizers will tell you its not that one night out against crime will solve every problem, but the night is meant to remind and reinforce to be the stepping stone to bring one night into two, two into a week, and a week into forever to provide a safe, nurturing environment for the children in the City of Champions and beyond.
