According to Fish and Game officials, it appears speed may have been a factor. William McKean, 40, was riding near the Kelsey Notch lookout trail when he went off the trail at a curve, striking a boulder and landing in a drainage ditch. McKean was treated at the scene, before being taken to Androscoggin Valley Hospital in Berlin with serious but non-life threatening injuries to his chest, back and lower leg. Two injured in Weare rear-ender Two drivers were injured in an accident on Route 114 Saturday morning. Police reports indicate that Roy Blanchette, 78, of Weare, rear-ended a car driven by Molly Bums, 18, also of Weare as she was attempting to turn into Dimitri's plaza about 10:30 a.m. According to Officer Brandon Montplaisir, both drivers were taken to Concord Hospital for injuries that were not life-threatening. www.granitequill.com | June 17, 2011 | The Messenger | Page 3 Newport graduates told to explore, dream, discover The historic Newport Opera House has hosted many a sold out performance and it was no exception for the Newport High School Graduation. The class of 89 seniors, forced inside by threatening skies, lost none of their spirit during the impressive ceremony. The Peer Pride Award, to outstanding underclassmen was presented to Leanne Rubchinuk and Zeb Swenson. Class President Nicholas Sullivan urged his classmates to "Never take a minute of life for granted," and quoting Mark Twain told them to "Explore, Dream, Discover." Class Essayist Emily DiPadova struck a similar theme, "Go confidently in the path you chose. Live the life you have imagined," she said. Valedictorian Malia King reminded her classmates "Winning is not a sometime thing. Winning is an all-time thing. Winning is a habit." Salutatorian Joseph Tremblay took a lighter tone, telling the audience about the many friendships he made at the school, and how you distinguish a friend from a best friend. A friend, he said, "will bail you out of jail, while your best friend, sitting beside you, will say, Damn that was fun." It would seem that Newport's Class of 2011 received a quality education and had fun doing it. ON THE Cover: Newport High School's graduation was forced inside, but spirits remained high.

New London names Town Administrator At their last meeting, the New London Selectmen welcomed Kim Hallquist, the candidate who was chosen to fill the vacant position of Town Administrator. Hallquist was one of 87 applicants for the position and it was determined that she was the best. Chair Mark Kaplan indicated that she had met with the administrative team and the department heads and was anxious to get started. She will begin officially on June 20. Hallquist currently works for Local Government Center as a staff attorney. Prior to that, she was the Town of Carroll’s administrative assistant. She indicated that she enjoys municipal work and said she was looking forward to working with citizens again. New Principal at Newport Middle/High • “PURECOMFORT” Heating Oil and PREMIUM PROPANE Delivery Newport Middle/High School has a new principal. Mark Christensen, the assistant principal at Winnisquam Regional High School in Meredith was approved for the position by the School Board at its last meeting. The 40-year-old father of three boys will replace Barry Connell. At Winnisquam, Christensen was the English Department's curriculum director, the summer credit director, and assistant principal, which put him in charge of the school's disciplinary policies. Christensen administered a unique behavioral program that allowed students to provide community service in lieu of in-school suspensions. A New London resident, he grew up in Amherst, and graduated from Milford High School. He formerly served as director of career and technical education at Plymouth Regional High School, taught at Nashua South High School and been an adjunct professor at Hesser College. He also worked with the state's community college system in both Manchester and Nashua, and served on the Kearsarge Regional School District Board. He holds a Doctorate in educational leadership from Plymouth State University/Argosy University in Sarasota, Fla.; a C.A.G.S., also from Plymouth State; a master's degree in business administration from Rivier College, and a bachelor's degree from Notre Dame College. www.granitequill.com | June 17, 2011 | The Messenger | Page 5 Hopkinton graduates told to 'Get Lost' As the members of Hopkinton High School's Class of 2011 entered the Durgin Arena, they lined each side of the central isle to "Clap In" the faculty as a sign of respect and appreciation for their teachers. Once on the stage, Class President John Wescott welcomed his classmates with a challenge to reinvent themselves, by deciding to succeed or not. Each of the 73 seniors took a moment in the ceremony to thank those who helped and supported them. Kate Sintros, a social studies teacher and class advisor gave the graduates four must-dos for the rest of their lives: Broaden your horizons; become an informed and active citizen; find something you love and a way to get paid for it; and stand up for what's right, "even if it means standing alone." Valedictorian Chloe Bohlman told how she learned about responsibility from her horse, which was plagued by constant injury, while Salutatorian Rebecca MacK- enzie quoted Robert Frost's line about two roads diverging in a yellow wood but felt that her life feels more like a series of rotaries and stop lights. Either way, straying off course, she told her classmates, is not always a bad thing. "Get a little lost on the way," she said. "It will bring you where you need to be." To close the ceremony, the faculty lined the central aisle to "Clap Out" their charges as they begin a new phase in their lives. Hopkinton High School Class of 2011 OPEN HOUSE CELEBRATION!!

Gardasil already is approved for the same age population for the prevention of cervical, vulvar, and vaginal cancer and the associated precancerous lesions caused by HPV types 6, 11, 16, and 18 in females. It is also approved for the prevention of genital warts caused by types 6 and 11 in both males and females. • • • Patients with diabetes, kidney disease and anemia who don’t respond to treatment with the anti-anemia drug darbepoetin alpha, sold under the name Aranesp, have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease or death, according to a study which appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine. The study showed that darbepoetin alpha works no better than a placebo for improving cardiovascular and kidney outcomes, but it did lower the risk for blood transfusion and resulted in modest improvement in patient-reported outcomes among people with diabetes, kidney disease and anemia. However, people receiving darbepoetin alpha had nearly a twofold higher risk for stroke. Cancer deaths were also higher among people receiving the drug. • • • Brought to you as a public service by: HENNIKER PHARMACY • (603) 428-3456 P.O. Box 718 • Proctor Square • Henniker, NH 03242 Photo and text by Rich Dahlgren While covering the Memorial Day program in Warner on May 30, 2011, I discovered that a visitor, a mother snapping turtle was calmly going about her business of laying eggs in a field adjacent to the Ela Bridge at the Warner River. The tossing of a wreath into the river was the culmination of the program coupled with a volley from the Post 39 firing squad. Even the noise from the firing squad did not deter her as she went about her task of depositing her eggs in the sandy soil near the river. Once she was discovered, a crowd gathered as the Memorial Day festivities had drawn to a close and the participants were returning to the Legion Post on Kearsarge Street Extension. I hope that “mother turtle” was successful in her efforts and that she will be a good mother to the babies after they’re born. Three finalists vie for Weare Principal The Weare School Board recently hosted the three finalists for a public meet-and-greet before offering one of them the job of principal of Center Woods Elementary School. The candidates were asked to make a statement of introduction and then answered questions from the audience and the School Board. Stacy Maghakian works in the Litchfield School District. Her goal is to enhance school culture and hopes to introduce a character education program at the school. Jessica Potter, is the current assistant principal at Weare Middle School and has been in the Weare School District as a student, teacher and administrator for 22 years. Jeffrey Drouin is the current assistant principal of Barnstead Elementary School. His goal is to "provide the highest level of education in a safe and respectful environment" A decision is expected soon. Hopkinton has a new Recreation Director The Hopkinton Selectmen have announced the appointment of Jessica Bailey as the town's new Recreation Director. Bailey knew what she wanted to do while growing up watching her mother run youth centers on Air Force bases. Bailey graduated from UNH and holds a bachelor's degree in recreation management and policy with a minor in business administration. She has worked in recreation for nearly 12 years, and was the recreation director in New Durham. Bailey was one of 52 candidates for the position. From that the applicants were narrowed down to 10 candidates, and the committee interviewed five of the 10 candidates and recommended three to the Selectmen. www.granitequill.com | June 17, 2011 | The Messenger | Page 7 Sgt. Russell Durgin - gone but not forgotten The cold damp weather failed to deter residents of Henniker and surrounding towns from honoring the memory of a fallen hero. On June 13th 2006 Sgt Russell Durgin gave the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan. 5 years later family and friends gathered together to remember and honor not only their home-town hero but also to celebrate the life of the boy with the smile on his face. The day began with an 8:00 a.m. Mass at St. Theresa's Church followed by a procession, led by members of the Patriot Guard, to Durgin's grave, where his mother lay fresh flowers as bagpipes played. After a few words of thanks from his mother Jean, and reflections by Susan Peterson of the NH Blue Star Mothers, the procession resumed through downtown Henniker, pausing to place a wreath at the Sgt. Russell Durgin Memorial Bridge on Route 114. The group then gathered at Russ's home to share memories and refreshments. Bennington has the power Police Chief Steve Campbell reports that Bennington has received two generators. Campbell, who also serves as the town's Emergency Services Director, said that the town has installed a permanent generator at the Town Hall and has also received a portable generator, which will be helpful for the Fire Department during winter calls when its equipment may freeze up after a power loss.

Innovation and the ability to be an agent of change topped the list, receiving 33 votes. Others included communication with 24, experience with 21 and personal with 14 votes. DeBenedictis led other focus groups with staff and faculty from Newport and Croydon schools and held an evening public session. He will then compile the results into one list for the eight-member SAU 43 School Board to consider in the process of hiring the new superintendent, who is expected to come on board by June or July of 2012. Kathy Hubert, one of the business leaders, made it clear what she was looking for. "We're waiting for superman or superwoman,"she said. No rush to hire Antrim's Town Planner Charles Levesque and Jesse Lazar from the Antrim Planning Board met with the selectmen to again request that the vacant Town Planner position be filled quickly. Levesque said the board needed staff help to do the research needed in drafting a new ordinance on wind farms. Chair Mike Genest said that, assuming SEC takes jurisdiction over the current met tower application, the town could hold off hiring a planner by using the Southwest Regional Planning Commission for assistance. The board also plans to increase the Planning Assistant's hours and hire clerical help to free up more of her time for planning functions. Two girls hurt in Warner ATV accident According to the NH Fish and Game officers, two teenage girls were injured in an ATV accident in Warner. Officials say 16-yearold Kelsey Ruff was operating the ATV on Sunday when she lost control and rolled over. She and her passenger, 17-year-old Sara Cobb, were both taken to Concord Hospital and treated for injuries that were not life-threatening. It appears that speed was a factor and neither girl was wearing a helmet. State law requires all riders under the age of 18 to wear helmets and eye protection. Operators under 18 also cannot carry passengers on an ATV due to increased vehicle instability. www.granitequill.com | June 17, 2011 | The Messenger | Page 9 Area educators join the best of the best The 18th annual NH Excellence In Education Awards (EDies) Ceremony was held recently at The Center of NH Radison Hotel in Manchester. Area educators receiving honors included: Chester Bowles, Region 14 Applied Technology Center in Peterborough who was chosen as this year's Career and Technical Director of the Year. Bowles stated that the success of the Center comes from the enthusiasm of the students, the efforts of the teachers and the continued support of the community and that he is a mere catalyst that helps bring these groups together for the benefit of all.

This will enable us to provide exact location information to dispatch agencies should an emergency arise. This process involves going to each structure in the town and collecting the actual X, Y coordinates, all posted addresses, and any new roads that we do not currently have in our data. If addresses are not clearly posted, we may need to verify resident or utility information. Should the need for this arise, we will always be in a clearly marked state vehicle and all employees have ID’s and carry information cards with the bureau contact information. After the collection process is complete we work closely with the town to ensure that the information gathered is complete and accurate. Upon acceptance by the town, paper and digital maps are generated for the town. 6 Warner Road • Warner, N H 603-746-5260 If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact the Bureau at (603) 527-2069.

Messenger readers are well aware of the shortcomings of the Hillsboro-Deering School District. Currently ranked as the fifth lowest high school in the state, the district has now undertaken a major effort to turn things around and improve its status as a School In Need Of Improvement. But, that is only part of the story. Recently, several events have highlighted the positive aspects of our schools and the communities that support them. 1. The Hillsboro-Deering DECA Team again received a 1st Place ranking in international competition, for the second year in a row. 2. The Hillsboro-Deering Music program returned from a Cleveland festival with 1st Place trophies in Chorus, Band and Red White and A-Cappella 3. Three weeks ago The Messenger listed the names of 47 H-D students who were members of the Superintendent's Club, which required four terms of straight A's for membership. 4. Two weeks ago The Messenger contained a lengthy list of H-D underclassmen who attained academic excellence in various areas of study. 5. Last week's Messenger contains an equally lengthy list of seniors whose academic achievement ranks with any school in the state. 6. The same issue contains a listing of scholarships awarded in excess of $150,000 to H-D graduates. 7. This week's Messenger lists 15 H-D students who were named NH Scholars. 8. H-D senior Kiah Walker was recognized as a National Merit Scholar. As in the case where things go wrong and there is plenty of blame to go around, in this instance, there is plenty of credit to be given: 1st: To the students themselves, for their God given talents and their dedication and hard work. 2nd: To their parents, who expected them to succeed, nurtured an atmosphere of personal responsibility, and gave them the love, discipline and support they needed. 3rd: To the people of Hillsborough, Deering, Washington and Windsor who have consistently provided one of the most generous scholarship programs in the state. 4th: To the faculty and staff of this school district who have aggressively challenged their students to strive for the best, to be the best they can be and accept nothing less than success. As we work to improve on our weaknesses, let us take a moment to reflect on our successes. In short, Congratulations to us all. Residents doubt wisdom of Bradford equipment lease Rob Messer believes the Bradford Selectmen have made a sizeable mistake with the equipment rental contract. Rob stated that he has never seen a rental of equipment set up for the summer; it is usually on an hourly basis. If the equipment is used for 10 hours, there is a huge amount of money used for the rental. If for 1000 hours, then the rate is not very much. When the town has done large projects in the past, these have gone out to bid to construction companies, as recently as the Center Road project. There are local excavators that have zero work. Putting jobs out to bid would save the town more money. John Mock stated that there are five excavators here in town, a lot of them out of work, and they all pay taxes in this town, and the Selectmen voted to hire the Road Agents excavator by a vote of 2 to 1. John advised he feels the Selectmen are setting a very poor precedent. It is not good for the town, and not good for the tax payers, and it should not happen. True Then • True Today To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. ~ Thomas Jefferson www.granitequill.com | June 17, 2011 | The Messenger | Page 11 Sugar River Bank, headquartered in Newport, New Hampshire, recently announced the promotion of three key staff members to the position of Assistant Vice President.

Bennington man to spend a year in jail James Remillard, 20, of Bennington was sentenced to one year in prison in Hillsborough County Superior Court on Friday, after pleading guilty to charges of negligent homicide and vehicular assault relating to a car crash that claimed the life of 16-year-old Rebekah Warren of Antrim last year. Remillard was also sentenced to 3.5 to 7 years in jail on the negligent homicide charge. That sentence was suspended, on the condition of good behavior. Once out of jail, Remillard will face two years of probation and have to complete 200 hours of community service. He will also have to pay the Warren family $12,266.60 in funeral expenses, lose his license for seven years and must complete a driver safety course before having his license restored. Elkins Subcommittee set to meet June 20 Interim Town Administrator Linda Hardy gave the Selectmen a list of 15 people interested in being on the Elkins subcommittee. Nate Miller, who works with the Upper Valley Lake Sunapee Region Planning Commission and was involved with the plans that helped New London win the grant would like to be included. Selectman Peter Bianchi felt someone from the Board of Selectmen should be on the committee. Tina Helm didn’t think it necessary to have representation by the Board of Selectmen, but that it would be good for them to attend some of the meetings. Bianchi said that the people want to get started with coming up with ideas before October, when the money is ready and an engineer is hired. June 20th was determined to be the date the committee would meet. d Memb e rou r Email: [email protected] Phone: 603-504-8425 P New for 2011: Athletes age 45+ may enter Track Events Awards of Gold, Silver, Bronze Medals and Fourth Place Ribbons www.NHSeniorGames.org Olde Hearth Chimney Services Chimneys & woodstoves professionally inspected cleaned and repaired, chimney caps U.L.
