State Representative David Biele

Powerful morning at the topping off ceremony of the FieldHouse+ yesterday on Columbia Point.

Words cannot capture the dignity, grace, strength and leadership of the Richard family in bringing this building into reality.

Grateful to the Boys and Girls Club of Dorchester, the Martin Richard Foundation, Iron Workers Local 7, the Boston Building Trades, the Marr family, and partners for their work and support.

Honored to work with colleagues in government to support this project and its vision which will benefit generations of youth in a welcoming, immersive space.

Proud to join this year’s presentation of scholarships from the Tim “Doc” Cook Foundation to local youth alongside Gold Star families, veterans, neighbors, and colleagues. Each year, the Foundation hosts events to raise awareness regarding post traumatic stress amongst veterans and educates local youth through the scholarship program.

A special thanks to Joe Cook and his family for their leadership and sharing their story.

Congratulations to this year’s recipients, keep up the great work and stay engaged!
