Peter Lamb, Chair of the Antrim Recreation Commission asks voters to approve lighting Shea Field.
Let There Be Light
Antrim voters approve lighting Shea Field
In the only ballot vote of the evening, voters
approved spending $95,000 as the first phase
of installing lights at Shea Field. Recreation
Commission Chairman Peter Lamb argued that
after several years of unsuccessfully searching
for additional land for athletic fields, the lights
would solve the problem by providing additional playing time on the existing fields. Resident
Janet McEuin argued against the article, saying
other projects deserved the funding and wondered if the money could be raised thru grants.
Recreation Director Celeste Lunetta
answered that funds were available for those
other projects and grants and donations would
be sought for phase two of the project. In the
end, the project was approved 69-44. See other
Antrim Town Meeting results on page 6.
Bow voters establish a full-day kindergarten program
Bow residents overwhelmingly approved
a petitioned warrant article establishing a fullday kindergarten program at Bow Elementary
School even though it lacked the endorsement of
either the school board or the budget committee.
By passing the $359,036 kindergarten appropriation, owners of a $250,000 home will pay an
additional $85.13 annually.
In 2014, the district formed a kindergarten
committee to explore the viability of full-day
kindergarten. The committee reported that it
was in favor of switching to full-day for the 201516 school year. Danielle Albushies, a parent who
served on the committee, told the crowd that
76 percent of children enrolled in kindergarten
nationwide are in school all day. Forty-one
percent of New Hampshire’s kindergarteners
attend full-day programs in districts including
Hanover, Hopkinton, Boscawen and Penacook.
Some residents, including Don Berube opposed
the article, especially because it did not have the
backing of the school board. “I don’t want to pay
for people’s day care,” he said. “I don’t see where
the extra instruction makes children that much
more of a student in the following year after
kindergarten.” In the end, the measure passed
by a 197 to 129 ballot vote. Other meeting votes
are reported on page 3.

The drug Stelara (ustekinumab), used to treat the
skin condition psoriasis, may also be effective against
Crohn’s disease, according to a new study published
in the New England Journal of Medicine. Crohn’s disease patients with moderate-to-severe cases of the
debilitating inflammatory bowel disease experienced
improvements after six weeks of treatment, the team
noted. Roughly 700,000 Americans are currently afBY SARAH CHAPIN
fected by Crohn’s disease, which can cause diarrhea,
intestinal bleeding and weight loss as well as complications, such as
bowel obstruction and abscesses. There is currently no known cure for
the condition.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Jetrea (ocriplasmin),
the first drug approved to treat an eye condition called symptomatic vitreomacular adhesion (VMA). VMA can contribute to eye problems if the
vitreous (jelly in the center of the eye) starts to move away from the macula (a part of the retina responsible for reading vision). This movement can
lead to damage of the macula due to pulling or tugging on the macula.

Statin use is associated with protection from esophagus cancer, according to a new meta-analysis of existing clinical studies exploring the cancer prevention effects of statins presented by a Mayo Clinic researcher,
Dr. Siddharth Singh, at the American College of Gastroenterology 77th
Annual Scientific Meeting in Las Vegas, NV. An analysis of a subset of
patients with Barrett’s esophagus, a pre-malignant condition associated
with chronic acid reflux, revealed that in this higher risk population,
statin use was associated with a significant 41 percent decrease in the
risk of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus.

New London Police Chief Ed Anderson presented commendations to officers James MacKenna (l) and Eben Lamson (r) for their life saving efforts.
New London Police Officers receive commendations for saving lives
At Monday's Select Board meeting,
New London Police Chief Ed Anderson was
proud to present Life Saving Commendations to two of his officers, James MacKenna
and Eben Lamson. On February 21st at
about 12:30 p.m., Officer James MacKenna
received a call from a male subject who
advised 911 that he was going to commit
suicide. MacKenna arrived at the residence
and knocked with no response, but he was
able to see a male subject through one of the
windows. The man was covered in blood
and unconscious. When MacKenna forced
entry into the residence he found the man
on the floor bleeding from a self-inflicted
knife wound to the chest. Officer MacKenna
was able to apply pressure to the wound to
stop the bleeding until emergency personnel
arrived on the scene. He was transported to
the hospital and has since recovered.
On March 7th at about 1:00 a.m., Officer
Lamson was patrolling Main Street when he
observed a young man who appeared to be
impaired, walking down the side of the road.
The man was not dressed appropriately for
the severe cold weather conditions. Lamson
attempted contact with the subject to check
his well-being but he fled.
Lamson pursed the subject but he was
able to elude apprehension. Officer Lamson
continued searching for the subject until he
was called off for a high priority call. After
clearing the call Lamson returned to the
area where the subject was last seen and
continued his search. With perseverance
and dedication, Officer Lamson was able
to locate the man lying in the snow unconscious, suffering from hypothermia, and
severe frostbite. Lamson then carried the
man out of the snow to emergency medical
personnel. He too has since recovered.
Bow School District and teachers union at impasse
Bow residents did not have a chance
to vote on a new contract between Bow
teachers and the district as the two had
reached an impasse. A statement posted
on the district's web site reads, “The Bow
School Board and the Bow Education
Association did not come to agreement
during negotiations for a new Master
Contract by the statutory deadline of
February 9, 2015.
Therefore, the provisions of the 20122015 contract will continue in force for
2015-16 and there will be a new round of
negotiations next year,” Muriel Hall, co-
chair of the Bow Education Association
took a more critical tone, saying, “Having
your teachers under contract is important
to move forward,” she said. “I think you
have failed your dedicated, hardworking
teachers in Bow.”
Voters did approve the school board's
$27.08 million budget, over a budget reduced by the budget committee at $27.05
million. They also voted to add $250,000
to a capital reserve fund for renovations
at Bow Elementary School and $24,510
from the agreement with Dunbarton to an
existing capital improvements fund.

Hundreds of Bow residents were in the dark Saturday night
after police say a driver under the influence crashed into a car and
a utility pole. Bow police say John Fisher, 57, of Allenstown, was
driving south on Route 3A in the area between Vaugh Road and
River Road in Bow when he allegedly tried to pass the car in front
of him and hit the car. The driver of that car suffered a shoulder
injury and was treated at the scene. According to the Bow Police
Fisher then smashed into a utility pole, significantly damaging it.
Nearly 900 Unitil Power customers were without electricity Saturday night. Fisher has been charged with Driving While Intoxicated.

New truck & security system in Goshen
The town of Goshen will be getting a new police truck and
security system after less than 40 residents gathered at the Goshen
town hall Saturday night. Goshen Police Chief Ed Anderson
explained to the sparse crowd that the original plan for the current
police truck was to be traded in 2016, but the current vehicle has
rust and transmission issues. Anderson stated it is more economical for the town to trade in the truck, use money from capital
reserve, and ask for an additional $7,000, than to keep the current
vehicle, fix it, and replace next year. After a ballot vote, the new
truck passed 22-15. Additionally, the town passed a new security
system for the town hall, library and fire station. This includes fire
alarms and security cameras for approximately $25,000. All other
articles passed overwhelmingly.
www.granitequill.com | March 20, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 5
Henniker voters support both the Highway and Fire Departments
It took over two hours of debate on the
article and two proposed amendments, but
Henniker voters eventually approved a $1.2
million warrant article to cover the anticipated costs of rebuilding the town’s highway
garage and replacing its fleet of five plow
trucks and a road grader.
Officials had been assured that insurance will cover the replacement cost of the
garage, provided it is rebuilt in place on the
same footprint. However, any enlargement
or improvements to the former antiquated
structure would not be covered. In addition, because of the age and condition of the
destroyed vehicles, the insurance company is
only offering $386,000 towards a $1.2 millions replacement cost if all new vehicles were
purchased.
The selectmen plan to purchase a mixture
of new and used equipment so that some
of that $1.2 million can be used to improve
the garage. Highway Superintendent Nate
Hadaway reassured voters saying, “We’re
going to explore every option we can to limit
the tax burden.” Amendments to reduce the
amount to $1 million and to delay voting until
a future date were overwhelmingly defeated.
An amendment to add the words "up to" to
the price of $1.2 million was approved and
the amended article passed by a vote of 118 to
58, sufficient to reach the required two-thirds.
Voters also approved the $4.45 million
operating which reflected a slight increase of
$300,000 over last year. By a vote of 179 to
24 voters agreed to a lease/purchase agreement for a fire department pumper truck.
Fire Chief Steve Burritt had agreed to
withdraw the request for the truck after the
highway fire but selectmen urged him to
retain it. Finally voters approved $364,000 to
reconstruct the red-listed Canal Bridge. With
reconstruction of the Western Avenue bridge
set to begin, all traffic, including heavy trucks,
would be rerouted over that bridge.
Hillsborough Highway Forman Bill Goss urges his fellow Henniker residents to support rebuilding
the town's Highway Department.
Petitioned article seeks sale of Newport's Parlin Field
A petitioned warrant article, signed by 79
Newport voters, would have the town sell the
Newport Airport, except for one acre known
as Corbin Bridge Park on the south side of the
Corbin Road.
It gives the selectmen authority to sell
"for such price, and upon such terms, as the
selectmen, in their prudential discretion
may determine, based upon sealed bids."
The airport, known as Parlin Field, includes
a 3,450 foot paved runway and a 1,950 foot
turf strip. The town holds leases to two 10bay T-hangers, and the property contains two
other private hangers and the building housing The Little Red Baron Restaurant. Town
Manager Paul Brown has expressed some
concerns about the petition, including if one
acre is enough for the park. He believes more
study is needed before the article goes to the
voting public.

Antrim voters approve complete warrant
There were ten articles on Antrim's Town Meeting Warrant last
week and all ten were approved. In ballot voting on Tuesday, the
four proposed zoning amendments won overwhelming approval.
Thursday evening voters convened at the town gym and approved
the town's $4,005,544 operating budget without question or debate. Approved was a five-year lease/purchase of a 10 wheel dump
truck for the highway department. The amount was amended
down from the $207,941 originally requested after the selectmen
announced that they had secured a better price.
Articles calling for $25,000 to restore windows at the Tuttle Library, $315,000 for additions to the Highway, Recreational Fields
and Fire Department Capital Reserve Funds. $25,000 for Reassessments and $12,000 to support the Teen/Community Center
were passed on voice votes. The final approval was of a 20-year
lease with NHSolarGarden to construct a solar array at the Sewer
& Water Department.
ConVal voters approve budget & contract
ConVal school District voters approved the $44,746,514 operating budget and the $426,596, three-year collective bargaining
agreement for teachers and paraprofessionals which only funds
the 2015-16 year. Next year, the board and union will renegotiate the second and third years of the agreement, factoring in the
merit-based pay being introduced and the effect of the Affordable
Care Act.

Sestercentennial Celebration continues at Hopkinton's Town Meeting
Hopkinton’s annual Town Meeting began
in a festive mood as Selectman Ken Traum
led his collegues, dressed in colonial attire,
to their seats ringing a bell and shouting
“hear ye, hear ye, town meeting is about to
begin.” Residents were treated to stories of
yesteryear including the appointment of a
fence viewer and election of a hog constable,
not to mention the tables full of birthday
cupcakes, all part of the town's Sestercentennial Celebration. The $6.12 million operating
budget passed easily in spite of Chairman
Jim O’Brien's admission that Hopkinton’s
taxes are higher than all but one surrounding town. Residents also voted to approve
$225,000 for repairs to the East Penacook
Road bridge.
Selectman George Langwasser outlined
the many problems with the bridge, which
is a major route to the transfer station and
has not been repaired since 1985. Hopkinton
hopes to replace the bridge in 2017 at an
estimated cost of $200,000, but according to Langwasser, delaying repairs would
only increase the cost later, and if the bridge
needed to be replaced and state aid was not
available, the town would be responsible for
an estimated $1 million.
Sunapee has ambulance service
Town Manager Donna Nashawaty
wanted to make it clear that the Town of
Sunapee has a contract with Newport on one
side and the New London Ambulance Service
on the other side.
They both back each other up and the
mutual aid for that will not stop. She wanted
to make sure the citizens realize that Sunapee
was not in the same boat as the other communities, where Newport is not backing up
New London Ambulance. The update is that
the mutual aid agreement has been extended
until July 1st.
The Hopkinton Selectmen came to Town Meeting dressed in colonial attire in honor of the town's
continuing Sestercentennial Celebration.

Jim Wheeler gave the New London Selectmen the bad news
regarding the inspection of the Academy Building that he, Richard
Lee and several others made last Friday. The clapboards in one section were removed which revealed extensive dry rot which appears to
be increasing and demands immediate remedial attention. Lee had
received an earlier bid of $150,000 but after the inspection, Wheeler
doubts that will be sufficient and suggested a figure of $200,000
to $300,000. The figure could go much higher but officials will not
know until all the clapboards are removed and the repairs begun.
Select Board Chair Janet Kidder suggested borrowing $200,000 to go
with the $117,000 currently in a maintenance fund, which hopefully
would allow some money to be used for the Fire Department floor
and Whipple Memorial Hall. Peter Bianchi expressed concern that
$200,000 would not be enough. The Board is awaiting firmer figures
including the cost of borrowing at its next meeting.
Trust gives $759,477.63 to New London
The New London Selectmen recently held a Public Hearing to accept a bequest from the Estate of Mary D. Haddad of funds to be used
for the purchase, preservation, and maintenance of open land, park
land, forest land and trails or paths for the benefit of the citizens of New
London. The Board gratefully accepted the $759,477.63 in the fund.

The section of Stagecoach Road that is located south of Dexter’s

few weeks due to severe muddy conditions that were observed on
Wednesday March 11, 2015.

Deering rewards its on-call Fire and Rescue personnel
Deering voters actually added $10,500
to the Selectmen's proposed operating
budget, bringing the total to $1.91 million.
The additional funds are to be used to
increase the on-call pay for the fire and
ambulance departments.
Deering Fire Capt. Pat Murdough gave
voters a recap of fire and rescue salary
information for Antrim, Henniker, Hillsboro, Weare and Deering, with Deering
having the lowest.
"We are trying to get back on a level
playing field,” he said. He said the increase
would make the pay of the emergency re-
sponders comparable. Also approved was
a $20,000 study of the fire department
designed to establish its equipment and
building needs for the next 20 years.
Other articles will also be paid for
through expendable funds, including:
$50,000 accounting software, $5,000 for
the police department equipment replacement fund, and $3,000 for the police
department ballistic vest fund.
Peterborough woman injured
Wilma Genet, 80, of Peterborough, was
transferred to UMASS Memorial Medical
Center in Worcester, Tuesday, for a head
injury, after being hit by a pickup truck at
the Peterborough Shopping Plaza.
Police reports indicate that as Genet
parked and was leaving her vehicle, she
was hit by a pickup truck being operated by
Anthony Trombley, 21, of Antrim. Genet
then fell and hit her head. According to
Capt. Ernie Belletete, Genet was apparently

Barbara Corson presented a very interesting program about the
Hannah Wallace quilt which was made in 1840 when Hannah would
have been almost 60 years old. The Hannah Wallace quilt was purchased
by the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. Barbara
then displayed her beautiful “Patriots in Petticoat’s” quilt. This was a
“block a month” year-long project.

Well School's Bobcat Bill passes the House
A bill which would make the bobcat New Hampshire's official
wildcat has cleared the House of Representatives on a voice vote.
Students at the Well School in Peterborough proposed the legislation
after studying the animal and learning about how bills become law.
Last year's fourth grade and the current fourth grade from the private
elementary school came to the state's Legislative Office Building in
February and convinced a house committee to back the legislation.
They did with a unanimous "Ought to Pass" recommendation. That was acted upon by the full House on Wednesday with a voice vote.
Now, House Bill 423 will head to the Senate for consideration and if
they agree, it will go to the governor to be made law.
Francestown Police Chief resigns suddenly
With the sudden resignation of Francestown Police Chief Stephen
Bell coming only days prior, it was the topic of speculation at Saturday's town meeting. Although several reidents had questions, no
answers were given as Selectman Scott Carbee announced that there
would be no discussion of it at the meeting. Residents also questioned
why there were no Francestown police officers at the meeting, which
was monitored by two State Troopers, who were paid $30 an hour to
be at the meeting, in case they were needed. A motion to reduce the
police budget by $50,000 in light of the vacant Chief's position failed.
In other matters, voters approved the $1,623,200 operating budget as
well as $70,000 for an exhaust treatment system for the Fire Station
and $30,000 to paint the town office.
MV Kearsarge & MV Mt. Sunapee leases
Peter Fenton, owner of the MV Kearsarge & MV Mt. Sunapee met
with the Sunapee Selectmen to discuss the Lease Renewals. The MV
Kearsarge has a three year contract and the MV Mt. Sunapee has an
annual contract. The only thing that is up every year is the cost of that
particular year’s lease based on the Consumer Price Index. Fenton
asked if the MV Kearsarge lease could be held to the same payments
for the next three years. The MV Kearsarge paid $10,156 in 2014, and
the MV Mt. Sunapee paid 7,692. Chairman Gallup said he could be
amenable to that if the Town could get some participation from the
Fentons towards some of the dock repairs. The repairs pertain to the
middle section of the docks, not the sections that either one of the
boats are tied up to, so the Fentons do not understand why they would
be responsible for these repairs. After much discussion, the Board
voted 3-1 to authorize the renewal of the MV Kearsarge and MV Mt.
Sunapee contracts with the 1.4% adjustment.

Washington Meetinghouse & Safety Complex articles lack 2/3 majority
It was standing room only at Washington's Town Meeting Saturday at Camp
Morgan Lodge. Of the 33 warrant articles
offered, only three failed, and one was at
the request of the Public Works Director.
The major discussions centered
on two large bond issues. One for
$1,752,000 to rehabilitate the Meetinghouse/Town Hall and the other for
$1,667,000 to construct and equip a
new safety building. Moderator Barbara
Gasket suggested that discussion and
voting be held on the Meetinghouse until
after discussion and voting on the safety
complex. Although some wanted to know
the results of the first before voting on the
second, a majority in attendance agreed
with the Moderator.
Although both projects had been
refined and the dollar amounts reduced
from last year, the results were the same.
Both articles received a majority vote but
neither received the needed 2/3 majority.
Voters disapprove the $440,600 General Government budget, the $368,570
DPW budget, $37,000 to lease an excavator, $18,000 for dock replacement and
$100,00 to the building capital Reserve
Fund.
Carolyn Russell urges Washington voters to approve restoration of the town's historic Meetinghouse.

Publisher’s Perspective
During this Town Meeting cycle,
The Messenger, on behalf of the citizens
of Antrim, Deering and Henniker and
Washington, has been pleased to provide
gift certificates for meals at Tooky Mills
and The Appleseed to the hard working
highway crews in those towns. Setting
aside the Henniker fire, this has been a
brutal winter and these men have worked
tirelessly to keep our streets clean and safe.
They deserve our thanks and appreciation,
and this gift was designed as a small token
by Leigh Bosse
of that.
We had planned to do the same for the
Hillsborough crew, but unlike their counterparts in Antrim, Deering, Henniker,and
Washington, the Hillsborough Selectmen,
at the insistence of Wendy Brien-Baker,
would not allow it. As she later remarked,
"It's about Bosse getting credit at Town
Meeting." It's definitely not about who
gets the credit, it's about someone saying
thanks. If we knew how she felt, we would
have let her make the presentation.
Letters to the Editor
Dear Friends and Supporters of the
Hillsboro District Food Pantry:
This is a follow up to a recent press
release in reference to what would have been
the fourth year that our local food pantry
has participated in the Feinstein Challenge.
Unfortunately, I was just informed that
the Feinstein Challenge will no longer be
promoted by the Feinstein Foundation. As
of January 6th of this year, a decision was
made by their organization to use the million
dollar grant monies offered to food pantries
that participated in the Feinstein Challenge
elsewhere.
This is disappointing news for the
Hillsboro District Food Pantry because,
although the Feinstein Challenge has gone
away, the need has not gone away. Last year
the Feinstein Challenge generated $14,253
in donations which was the value of cash
received plus food items donated valued at
$1 per can or per pound during the months
of March and April, months that typically
see a decline in donations. I encourage those
who so generously give to the food pantry to
continue to do so in absence of the Feinstein
Challenge, and thank you for your continued
support.
Ernest E. Gould Jr.
Hillsboro District Food Pantry
******************************************
Dear Editor:
I wish to thank the people that have supported me over the years and I have enjoyed
trying to make Hillsborough New Hampshire
a better place for everyone. It was a lot of
work. I never missed a meeting even though
my original plan was to replace two Tuesdays
a month with Selectman's meetings. I did
not plan on training sessions and being the
Selectman's representative to the Planning
Board which the new selectman is appointed
to for one year. Because of different situations I was the Selectman's representative to
the Planning Board for three years and never
missed a meeting. Unfortunately the people
I was trying to help do not vote. My voting
base has not changed much in three years.
In a town of 6000 with over 3000 voters the
turnout at this election was very poor and
people going to town meeting was less than
3%. I have always voted in every election and
gone to every town meeting. I lost the election by about 31 votes.
I have had a lot of people come to me
with complaints. This has been said many
times by many people that more people need
to get out and vote. Well across the state and
country we need people willing to give up
some time and help with some of the things
that need to be done. Voting does not take
much time. We have positions in town that
only need one or two hours once a month
and some that are twice a month. I encourage YOU to help make a difference and get
involved.

Electricity Deregulation: What a Long
Strange Trip It’s Been
A new and very large challenge landed
this week in the Senate Energy and Natural
Resources Committee I serve on. It’s a complex issue with many
interconnecting parts
that is intended to
complete New Hampshire’s long-running
effort to deregulate our
electricity market, with
the goal of lowering
electricity rates for
residential consumers
and businesses.
First, however, we need to go back at least
20 years to understand how we got into our
current situation. Back then fully-regulated
utilities like Public Service Company of NH
received monopoly power from the State to
build power plants that generated electricity delivered through the poles and wires
they also owned. We had no choice who we
bought power from. That was dictated simply
by our location. The rates charged were set
by the State Public Utilities Commission and
designed to allow the utility a fair return on
their investment. And, while there was no
competition in the market, there was plenty
of controversy.
Many will recall that construction of the
Seabrook Station nuclear plant put Public
Service Company of NH under great financial
strain, to the point that PSNH defaulted on
Seabrook-related bonds and eventually went
through bankruptcy. Those traumatic times
caused many to ask if there wasn’t a better way to design an energy market. A way
that would redirect the risk of building and
maintaining the very expensive power grid
we need away from ratepayers and toward
private investors.
The answer was electricity industry
deregulation, which was approved by state
lawmakers 20 years ago. The idea being
to separate power generation from power
transmission and from energy sales, and
encourage market competition that should
drive down cost while insulating ratepayers
from investment risk.
Not surprisingly, there were challenges.
Before PSNH would sell Seabrook Station
they sought to recover so-called “stranded
costs,” arguing that they made the investment with oversight and approval from state
regulators, so they should either be allowed
By District 8 State Senator Jerry Little
to continue earning a return on that investment or compensated for stranding it. It was
a strong argument, and the agreed to solution
was to allow them to recover the stranded
costs. That was facilitated via proceeds from
a bond that would be paid off by ratepayers.
New Hampshire was not alone in the effort to deregulate and bring market forces to
bear on the electricity market. Many states,
including every state in New England but
Vermont, deregulated. Then energy market
manipulations like ENRON hit the news.
State lawmakers stood on the deregulation
brakes and stopped PSNH from selling their
remaining fossil fuel and hydroelectric power
plants.
The state then ordered PSNH to install a
“scrubber” on the stacks of its coal-burning
power plant in Bow to reduce emissions into
the atmosphere. The price tag (which PSNH
was told they’d be allowed to recover from
ratepayers) was estimated at $250 million
dollars. The actual cost turned out to be $425
million and hearings were begun at the State
PUC to determine how much of the amount
above estimate they’d be allowed to recover
from ratepayers.
Which brings us to today. Many of the
companies that have come to compete in New
Hampshire’s energy market would like the
state to complete its long march to deregulation and level the playing field, which means
they want the state to order PSNH (now
known as Eversource) to sell off its remaining power plants. But that’s not going to
happen quickly with an open PUC docket and
potentially a lawsuit over recovery of the costs
of the scrubber. Holy Groundhog Day! We’re
back to stranded costs impeding NH’s long,
slow walk toward deregulation.
But now we have a model to follow.
Another agreement, similar in ways to the
previous one mentioned above, was recently announced. This week the Energy and
Natural Resources Committee received an
amendment that, among other things, makes
changes to state law to allow refinancing of
debt incurred by Eversource nee PSNH to install the scrubber. If approved, the refinancing will avoid about $300 million of interest
expense ratepayers would otherwise shoulder
and set the cost of the scrubber ratepayers
will ultimately pay at $400 million. In return, Eversource will sell its remaining power
plants, putting New Hampshire on what may
be the final leg of its 20 year journey to a
deregulated energy market.

Generous Grants fund Newport schools' RABBIT reading program
Generous grants from the Jake Maxfield
Connection and the Richards-Towle PTO
have made it possible to expand the annual
Newport Project RABBIT (Read A Book Because It’s Terrific). The program has grown
its literacy quest and is offering a series of
book giveaways to Newport students in
Grades 5 and 6 at Towle School as well as the
Richards School program serving Preschool
through Grade 4 with readings by visitors to
the school and book gifts to each student.
Fred Maxfield, Co-Chair and Rebecca
Bates, board member from the Jake Maxfield
Connection, a non-profit group dedicated to
educational scholarships, community service
and literacy support for young learners, visited Towle School on Wednesday, March 12 for
the kickoff giveaways. Hosting the event were
Principal Phil Callanan; Crystal Robertson of
the Richards-Towle PTO; and Paula Johnson, Newport School District Administrative
Assistant and coordinator of the 2015 Project
Rabbit program. Each classroom was called
to the Towle School Media Center where
displays of books were presented. A brief
welcome from Robertson, and students were
on the loose to read covers and turn pages
before making their final selections. “The
kids were really excited about the books,
and we are so thankful to the Jake Maxfield
Connection and the PTO for making this opportunity available,” said Johnson.
Fifth Graders at Towle School choose books at Project RABBIT - Carter Trybulski (foreground), (l-r)

NSDAR honors Henniker's Milli Knundsen
The month of March being “Women’s History Month” it is fitting
this medal and certificate should be given to Milli Knudsen of Henniker. On March 14, 2015 the Reprisal Chapter NSDAR of Newport
presented to Milli this award. The DAR’s criteria for this award is;
a woman past or present who is Intellectual, Educational, Social,
Religious, Political, Scientific, and Cultural in their daily lives. Milli is a
retired school teacher, an author of local historical materials, a speaker
and a genealogist who is also the consummate volunteer. In between
her many hours of volunteering as the NH Cold Case Unit’s Para Legal
and all around assistant, she is now working at the NH State Medical
Examiner’s office at Concord Hospital and as a secretary at her Church
in Henniker. The list of her volunteer works over the years would
cover this newspaper's entire page.
Student takes alternative spring break
Many college students hit the beaches over Spring Break, while
others spent their time away from classes in the mountains or the big
city. For Kristopher Bosela, of Warner, participating in Ithaca College's
Alternative Spring Break program, going to such locations didn't mean
he worked on his tan. The Alternative Spring Break gives Ithaca College students the opportunity to grow personally and professionally by
working at a variety of sites, ranging from the coasts of North Carolina
and Virginia to inner-city Washington, D.C., to Native American territory in New York. The annual program is run by the Office of Student
Engagement and Multicultural Affairs. Bosela, a junior clinical health
studies major in the School of Health Sciences and Human Performance, traveled to Kiptopeke State Park in Virgina, to work with the
Department of Parks and Recreation on maintenance, rebuilding and
beautification projects.
Complaint over Goffstown poll worker
Goffstown's Warrant contained a petition article from Scott Gross,
a former chair of both the school board and the board of selectmen,
which asked voters to change Goffstown’s form of government from
Town Administrator to Town Manager, which he said would make
the town’s government more efficient. Although the article failed,
503 yes votes to 1,134 opposed, resident Bill Wynne complained to
the selectmen that Gross had worked at the polls at Goffstown High
School from 6:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. last week. Later, Rodney Stark, the
Town Moderator, said there was no legal issue preventing Gross
from working the polls.

before spring sports begin. Skill development is a priority in our
program. All our coaches are USA Hockey certified. We offer Learn to
Skate and Learn to Play programs in addition to Mite, Squirt, Peewee
and Bantam travel teams. Our home rink is Lee Clement Ice Arena at
New England College in Henniker, NH.

bantams and $650 for mites. Learn to Skate is only $50 and Learn to

provides jerseys and socks for the season so there are no uniform

# 1 Coe-Brown 50 #6 Goffstown 46
Division II Championship
The undefeated and top seeded Coe-Brown girls’ basketball
team won the Division II state championship game when senior Jenny Schlim blocked the Grizzlies' Molly McQueeney's
layup attempt with under five seconds to go, preserving a
two-point lead. The Bears went on to win 50-46 on Saturday
night at Southern New Hampshire University after Haley
Ruth hit two free throws with 1.3 seconds left. Coe-Brown
finished a perfect 22-0. They entered the season as the favorite by returning five senior starters and two All-State players.
Sarah Doherty had driven all the way to the basket from the
top of the arc and laid it in to cut the Goffstown deficit to 4846 with 1:39 to go. Rene Roggenbuck led Goffstown with 12
points and 20 rebounds.
#6 Goffstown 43 #2 Milford 23
Division II Semifinals
Kathryn Howe made five 3-pointers and led all scorers with

Division II Semifinals
Brady opened the game on a 15-2 run and a 6-0 run opening
the second quarter made it 41-16. Marcus Haynes scored a
game-high 21 points for Goffstown in defeat and teammate
Casey Gervais added 13 rebounds. The Grizzlies opened the
third down 19 and fell behind by 27 before an 11-0 run of
their own cut the defect to 13 points.
BASKETBALL
#10 Goffstown 82 #15 St. Thomas 71
Division II Quarterfinals
The Grizzlies hit 58% other second half shots erupting for 52
points advance to the semifinals against third seeded Bishop
Brady. The Grizzlies shot 46 percent for the game and 12 for
23 from the 3-point arc. Robbie Girardin, who scored 15, and
Mike Bailey, who scored 9, got them all from beyond the
arc. The Saints led 16-12 after one and 32-30 at the half. But
Goffstown hit its first five shots of the second half and pulled
out to a 47-37 lead they would not relinquish.
HOCKEY
#3 Berlin-Gorham 6 #2 Stark-Hopkinton 5
Division III Semifinals
The winning goal came 2:47 into the extra period when a
faceoff in the Stark-Hopkinton zone shot straight at the Generals keeper, popped up over his shoulder and landed softly
on the ice before Berlin-Gorham’s Trevor Labrecque tapped
the puck over the goal line. Trailing 4-0, Stark-Hopkinton
appeared to be 15 minutes away from the end of its season.
But with 11:06 remaining, the Generals began to rally. Stark’s
Robbie Ferguson forced a two-on-one break out with Callahan Loos. Ferguson worked the puck in deep and passed
off to Loos, who promptly flipped the puck by the Berlin
goalie for a short-handed goal. A few minutes later, the same
tandem continued to cut into the lead. Ferguson found Loos
who netted his second goal to bring it to within 4-2 with 8:49
remaining. Two minutes later, Kyle Kolehmainen passed to
Ryan Hawkes, made it 4-3 with 6:38 left. Adrian McCarthyTiella fed Hawkes who deflected it in for the tying goal with
5:13 remaining. With under three minutes to go Ferguson
broke away for the go-ahead goal with 2:36 left. With just 14
seconds left Berlin-Gorham’s Nathan Trull found the back of
the net for the tying goal, and sending the game to overtime,
where Labrecque’s goal proved to be the deciding factor.
