Good morning, Lowell.

The Lowell Cultural Council awarded $1,125 for the Cambodian New Year Celebration at Butler Middle School on March 6, where over 250 families watched more than 50 students perform traditional Cambodian dances in an eight-week afterschool program in partnership with Angkor Dance — a collaboration spanning 31 years.

Paul Pires returned in 2025 as Executive Director of the Lowell Regional Water Utility to oversee 40 employees maintaining 215 miles of water pipes carrying up to 13 million gallons daily.

He shifted work in-house, saving hundreds of thousands in contractor costs (boosting worker pride).
