      <image:title>ABOUT US - OUR HISTORY</image:title>
      <image:caption>This annual community tradition was created by Sal LaMattina, who recognized the need for increased pride in the community of East Boston. In the late 1980’s, many East Boston residents were becoming disenchanted with East Boston and moving to other towns. In many of the community meetings and individual conversations at the time, residents spoke about not having the pride in their community that they once had. People looked back to the days of Wood Island Park with many family picnics and recreation activities with a sense of sadness that this was not here in East Boston in the late 1980’s. Determined to bring back the pride to East Boston, Sal LaMattina organized the first Eastie Pride Day in 1989. Community people from many agencies and countless individuals were quick to work together for the good of East Boston. People put aside differences that usually would keep them apart throughout the year to work side by side in planning and carrying out a wonderful day for the community. More than 30 years later, the same holds true. The East Boston community is rapidly changing but throughout all of this change – the good and the bad – it is important now more than ever to remind residents what we all have in common – our love and pride for East Boston.  In the years since Eastie Pride Day began, it has now become a staple event in the neighborhood – kids and adults alike look forward to the event every year. The local business community steps up to support the event through a combination of financial and in-kind donations. Dozens of residents dedicate their day as volunteers – scooping slush, handing out balloons, preparing food, cleaning/setting up the park, etc. Youth perform dance routines and karate demos, sharing their talent with their neighbors.</image:caption>
