The East Bay Recovery Center, the East Bay Community Action Program and the Warren Prevention Coalitiom with the support of staff from the People's Credit Union hosted a free community cookout Thursday, Sept. 18, to aid those in need and homeless.

The event took place at the recovery center's Railroad Avenue location. Featured fare included coffee and doughnuts, hot dogs, hamburgers, potato and macaroni salad, watermelon and chips.

Representatives from EBCAP's family development department were in attendance to discuss the resources and programs available to those who seek assistance.

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
