In a unanimous vote during a caucus meeting Tuesda

In a unanimous vote during a caucus meeting Tuesday night, the Newport City Council unanimously elected Councilor Charlie Holder as the city’s new mayor. Councilor Lynn Ceglie was elected vice-chair, positioning her as the second-in-command on the council.

The decision comes as the council transitions to a new term, with Holder and Ceglie set to guide Newport through a period of both challenge and opportunity. The selection reflects confidence in Holder’s ability to spearhead upcoming initiatives for Newport’s historic community, which has long attracted both residents and tourists with its coastal charm and cultural richness.

Holder, who has served on the council since 2020, expressed gratitude for the support of his fellow councilors, promising to uphold the city’s traditions while also pushing for forward-thinking policies.

Ceglie, a long-time council member, echoed Holder’s sentiments, pledging her support for Newport’s future and her commitment to teamwork on the council.

Celebrate the holidays with Newport’s vibrant wa

Celebrate the holidays with Newport’s vibrant waterfront community as it shines brightly for the 25th Annual Illuminated Boat Parade on Friday, Nov. 29, at 6 p.m. This beloved event invites everyone to join in a dazzling display of holiday spirit with boats adorned in festive lights parading through Newport Harbor.

What began 25 years ago as a small, community-based event founded by former Harbormaster Jake Farrell has evolved into a major holiday tradition. Newport Yacht Club now proudly hosts the parade, creating a cherished experience for locals and visitors alike.

The festivities kick off as vessels of all shapes and sizes line up south of the Goat Island Causeway, preparing for a scenic route that will light up the downtown waterfront. Boats will proceed east past Newport Yacht Club—where the judging panel awaits—and continue south along the harbor, making their way past Bowen’s Wharf, @bannisterswharf, and Perrotti Park before circling back.

The event is free to the public, making it an accessible family-friendly celebration to welcome the holiday season. Spectators can catch a prime view of the illuminated boats from several locations around Newport Harbor, including Perrotti Park, Bowen’s Wharf, Bannister’s Wharf, @thequenchernewport, @wharffishhouse, @diegosnewport, @wharfsouthernkitchen, and the Newport Yacht Club, which opens to the public for the evening.

Adding to the fun, the vessels will compete in several categories: Best Decorated Sailboat (commercial and recreational), Best Decorated Powerboat (commercial and recreational), Best Decorated Fishing Boat, and the coveted Tim Mills Team Spirit Award, named in honor of late harbormaster Tim Mills, who was a long-standing advocate of Newport’s waterfront and this annual tradition. The awards ceremony will be held at Newport Yacht Club at 7:30 p.m. following the parade.

🚨 A motor vehicle accident involving a moped ca

🚨 A motor vehicle accident involving a moped carrying a toddler passenger has left two individuals injured and led to serious charges for the driver. On Sunday night around 9:30 p.m., Newport Police and Fire Rescue responded to a call at the intersection of Spring and Dixon Streets, where they found 31-year-old Charles Fenwick with an apparent leg injury after his moped collided with an unoccupied parked vehicle.

A witness at the scene was holding an 18-month-old toddler who had also been on the moped. Emergency responders transported the child to Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Providence, where they remain in stable condition. Fenwick was taken initially to Newport Hospital for treatment and was later transferred to Rhode Island Hospital. His injuries are not life-threatening, officials said.

Following the incident, Mr. Fenwick was charged with Child Endangerment, Driving Under the Influence resulting in Serious Bodily Injury, Reckless Driving, and Refusal to Submit to a Chemical Test.

Newport Police detectives are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the crash and will provide further updates as they become available.

In an unforgettable NEWMAC showdown, Salve Regina

In an unforgettable NEWMAC showdown, Salve Regina pulled off a heart-stopping comeback to secure a 21-14 victory over WPI! After trailing 14-7 going into the fourth quarter, the Seahawks came alive with QB Anthony Bellizzi leading the charge. Bellizzi connected with Josh Letellier for TWO massive touchdown passes, including the game-winner with just 24 seconds left on the clock! 🤯🔥

Letellier was unstoppable, making two acrobatic grabs for 158 yards and two TDs, shrugging off defenders and even drawing pass interference calls (which the Seahawks happily declined!). On the ground, Justan Luzzi powered the offense with 101 rushing yards on 23 carries, including an 18-yard score that set the tone early on. That’s FOUR straight games of 100+ yards for Luzzi! 💪

The Seahawks’ defense showed up big-time, with Nick Bostrom recording six tackles and a sack, and Jack Zingaro securing the win with a clutch interception on WPI’s final drive.

WPI played tough all game. QB Mike Ingraffia racked up 171 passing yards, a rushing TD, and John Chau added another score on the ground to put WPI in front late in the third. But the Seahawks kept fighting, making this one for the books! 📖

Final Score: Salve Regina 21, WPI 14

The Seahawks close out their season next Saturday, Nov. 16, as they host Norwich in what’s sure to be another exciting game.
