The New London Hospital Days midway was all lit up Friday night July 31. Paul Howe photo.
Name released
Still no police report on cause of the accident
It has been over a month since the crash
that killed one local teenager and seriously
injured two others, and the state police have
finally named two of the injured boys, but
still have not released the final results of their
investigation.
In a press release, police identified the
driver of the vehicle as Benjamin Cook, 18,
of New Boston and a passenger as Aaron
Hodgdon, 18, of Weare. Both received serious
injuries in the July 3 crash. Strangely, police
still have not officially named the third teenager, 17-year-old Trevor Gonyer of Dunbarton,
who died at Concord Hospital shortly after the
crash. Friends and family identified Gonyer as
the victim weeks ago.
The three teens were being pursued by New
Boston police officer Stephen Case at speeds
up to 85 mph. The accident occurred near Cold
Springs RV, more than 2 miles from the New
Boston town line and beyond the pursuit limits
of the department's policy.
Motorcyclists seriously injured in Franklin collission
Two motorcycle riders were airlifted by
helicopters to hospitals last Thursday morning
after colliding with a tractor-trailer. According to
Franklin Fire Department Captain Bruce Goldthwaite, when rescue crews arrived at the scene
on South Main Street they found two adult
motorcycle riders with “significant injuries” on
the road. Neither motorcycle rider was wearing
a helmet. The pair was taken by ambulance to
Franklin Regional Hospital, where they were
flown to “Level 1 trauma facilities. The tractor
trailer driver was taken by ambulance to the hospital where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries. Franklin police, assisted by the New
Hampshire State Police Tactical Reconstruction
Team are investigating the accident.

Committee to study the withdrawal of Franklin Schools from SAU #18
At Monday's City Council meeting SAU
#18 Superintendent of Schools Daniel
LeGallo and Franklin School Board Chair
Tamara Feener informed the Council that
they are forming a committee to study the
possible withdrawal of Franklin schools
from SAU #18, consisting of Franklin and
Hill. Recently Hill voted not to send its students to Franklin High School and Franklin
has adopted an Open Enrollment Plan.
State law provides that any school district may vote to create a planning committee to study the withdrawal from a School
Administrative Unit. The question shall
be placed on the warrant of a special or
annual school district meeting. The planning committee shall consist of two local
school board members, appointed by the
local school board, and five public members representing the community at large,
appointed by the school district moderator.
The committee shall:
(1) Study the advisability of the withdrawal of a specific school district from a
school administrative unit in accordance
with this chapter, its organization, operation and control, and the advisability of
constructing, maintaining and operating a
school or schools to serve the needs of such
school district.
(2) Estimate the construction and
operating costs of operating such school or
schools.
(3) Investigate the methods of financing such school or schools, and any other
matters pertaining to the organization and
operation of a school administrative unit.
(4) Prepare an educational and fiscal
analysis of the impact of the withdrawing
district on any school districts remaining
in the school administrative unit and a proposed plan for the disposition of any school
administrative unit assets and liabilities.
(5) Consult with the department of
education regarding any unique issues and
resolve such issues in a timely manner and
submit a report or reports of its findings
and recommendations to the several school
districts within the existing school administrative unit.
If the planning committee recommends
the withdrawal from the SAU it shall
prepare a plan for organization or reorga-
nization and submit a copy of the proposed
plan to the several school districts and shall
hold at least one public hearing. The state
board of education has 60 days to review
the proposed plan to determine whether or
not it complies with the law. If I all requirements have been met, it shall forward the
plan to the school district clerk for a vote at
a regular or special school district meeting.
SAU #18 Superintendent of Schools Daniel LeGallo (l) and Franklin School Board Chair Tamara Feener
(r) addressed the Franklin City Council Monday night.
Playground builder critical of Henniker committee
David Verbeck from Grassroots Playscapes recently presented the Henniker
Playground committee with drawings of an
outline of a new playground.
He told the committee it was a mistake
to remove all the old equipment and later
informed a resident privately that it was
equivalent to throwing $150K away.
He also criticized the latest Primex
inspection report, as not being a safety

report but rather a list of items that don't
meet current codes. He cited the example
of Entanglement Hazards at the top of the
swings.
A child could possibly shimmy up those
slippery poles and get up there, and if he
worked at it, he could even hang him- or
herself from there; but I don't think that's
a level of safety the committee ought to be
insisting on.

TAKE YOUR MEDICINE
Few classes of drugs have had such a transformative effect on the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) as have statins, prescribed to reduce
total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, some clinicians have ongoing
concerns regarding the potential for lens opacities
(cataracts) as a result of statin use. In an article
in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology , researchers report increased risk for cataracts in patients
BY SARAH CHAPIN
treated with statins. However, because the overall
risk is low and because cataract surgery is both effective and well
tolerated, this association should be disclosed but not be considered
a deterrent to use of statins when warranted for CV risk reduction.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved a new use for
Jakafi (ruxolitinib) to treat patients with polycythemia vera, a chronic
type of bone marrow disease. Jakafi is the first drug approved by the
FDA for this condition. Polycythemia vera occurs when too many red
blood cells are made in the bone marrow. Patients may also experience an increase in white blood cells and platelets. An overabundance
of blood cells can cause the spleen to swell, bleeding problems and
blood clots in the veins near the skin surface (phlebitis). In addition,
it puts patients at increased risk of stroke or heart attack. Jakafi’s
new use in intended to treat polycythemia vera patients who have
an inadequate response to or cannot tolerate hydroxyurea, another
medicine often prescribed to reduce the number of red blood cells
and platelets in the blood. Jakafi works by inhibiting enzymes called
Janus Associated Kinase (JAK) 1 and 2 that are involved n regulating
blood and immunological functioning. The drug’s approval to treat
polycythemia vera will help decrease the occurrence of an enlarged
spleen (splenomegaly) and the need for phlebotomy, a procedure to
remove excess blood from the body.

Two Dynamic Duos teamed up for Bow's Sunday night concert
In the first duo is the Bow Rotary
Club and Bow Men’s Club teaming up to
provide another fantastic evening of food
and music.
The Bow Rotary Club hosted it’s 4th
of 6 free concerts this summer on Sunday
night at 6pm at the Bow Gazebo. Each and
every week the concerts are held, the Bow
Men’s Club faithfully joins the Rotary and
feeds the masses. They provide free popcorn – a tasty treat whose ever so tempting smell draws you in for more. They also
sell steamed hot dogs with an assortment
of fixings, not to be beat, as well as chips
and beverages. It’s a match made in heaven. Much like this past week’s performers
– our second duo…
The crowd was lulled, swayed and
romanced by two fine a cappella groups:
The Concord Coachmen and The Laconia
Chordsmen. An entertaining array of
oldies but goodies was performed in the
styles of barbershop, doo-wop, gospel,
jazz and pop to the pleasure of all. The
concert climaxed with both groups joining
together to perform “God Bless America.”
It was an evening not to be missed.
Coming up this week, on August 2nd,
The Mink Hills Band, a New Hampshire
based acoustic band whose selection of
music includes Bluegrass, Swing, Folk
played On august 9th its the Freese Brothers Band. Be sure to bring your lawn chair,
your friends and family, even your dog (on
a leash) if you would like and an appetite
for enjoyment on a beautiful summer’s
night.
P.S. Did we mention, it’s free?! The
concert starts at 6pm, but get there early
to grab a good spot on the lawn and get in
line for the fabulous food provided by the
Bow Men’s Club.

Diana Sterling retires from Fire Deparment
Fire Chief Robert Vezina announces the retirement of our dear
friend and beloved member Diana Sterling. Recognized for her unconditional dedication, grace, and congeniality, Diana was presented an
engraved crystal award. “She
will be deeply
missed, but we
can only feel
happy for her
after 20-years
of service to
the citizens of
Weare,” stated
Chief Vezina.
Diana joined
the Department
in 1995 after
she received
a phone call
by then Fire
Chief Chester
Rhodenizer.
She recollected
the story during her award
presentation.
“Punky, as
Chief Rhoden- Diana Sterling. Ann Dinsmore Photo.
izer was better
known, had called stating I had won a trip to the Caribbean,” recalled
Diana. Since she did not recognize the caller she asked who was
calling. Chief Rhodenizer revealed his real purpose for the call and
asked if she would like to work for the Weare Fire Department. “That
was the beginning for working with the Weare Fire Department,” she
laughed. The Weare Fire Department wishes her well and anticipates
that she will enjoy her free time.

The recent announcement that the New
Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee has
taken jurisdiction over the proposed Antrim
wind farm coupled with the approval of
an Antrim cell tower reminded me of the
above phrase. Opposition to these modern
technologies centers around the belief that
they are ugly and spoil the pristine views
that surround us.
It makes you wonder where we would be
today if the same attitude prevailed over a
century ago, when these poles were erected.
Letters to the Editor
The following letter was sent to the
Chair of the Henniker Community School
Board, The SAU #24 Superintendent and
the Principal of the Henniker Community
School.
I am of the opinion that despite the
best efforts of members of the Playground
Committee, the overall situation regarding
repairs and/or replacement of the playground has deteriorated.
On the good side, I heard the first
person to talk any sense about the project
since I became aware of the issues early
this year, at the Playground Committee
meeting last Wednesday (7/29). Dave
Verbeck of Grassroots Playscapes criticized the recent Primex inspection report,
which cited entanglement hazards in areas
unreachable by children in the normal
course of play. He also told the Committee
that he thought the recent removal of the
large composite structure was a mistake.
He told me privately it was like throwing
away $100-150K.
He also presented some drawings of
some ideas for a new playground. They
certainly weren't plans, but they seemed
like a good starting point for developing
some plans, but they didn't lead to any
related discussion at the meeting.
You may remember, I have urged
several times that repairs be made to the
Large Composite Structure pending the
construction of a new playground. The
original manufacturer was not needed,
there are a number of carpenters and
metal workers in Town fully capable of 
www.granitequill.com | august 7, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 13
making the repairs that would have been
required.
Mr. Verbeck pointed out that according to playground safety standards, there
is also a head entrapment hazard in the
smaller structure in the upper playground.
When the next inspector cites it, are you
going to remove it, too?
While it is true that normal maintenance has and is being done in the
playground, it is absolutely clear that no
significant effort has been made to remedy
the deficiencies cited in the July 2014
inspection report (except for the action
the Superintendent initiated after meeting
with me and viewing some photos). Was
there a desire to fail the Primex inspection
in order to increase pressure for a new
playground? (Most organizations prepare
for inspections by fixing every deficiency
possible before the inspection.)
In my experience, inspection results
are negotiated, and the report of a single
inspector is seldom accepted by either
side as gospel. Was there any negotiation between School District leadership
and Primex leadership? Any offer by the
District to remedy the most significant
hazards?
I am uncomfortable with the informal
arrangement that has been made for the
Henniker PTA to hold donations made by
the public for a new playground. First and
foremost, I don't believe Ben Fortner has
instituted the tight financial controls he
says he has. My check for both membership and a $100 donation towards the
playground has not cleared the bank in
over two weeks. I'm not familiar with the
exact law here, but I do know the general
rule is that such funds should be deposited into a bank or other such financial
institution promptly. Over two weeks and
counting is not prompt.
I am also concerned that there is no
written agreement between the school
district and the PTA regarding the use
of donated funds. Mr. Fortner has quite
rightly made clear that his responsibility
is to his membership and board. What if a
significant sum of money is collected but
the PTA doesn't agree with the plan for
the new playground, and won't release the
funds?
I urge the SAU to seek other options
for holding these funds, and as a minimum
to have a plan in place to transfer the
funds to a school district account at the
next school district meeting. I'll feel better
if I know the SAU business manager is
'babysitting' the funds.
I'm concerned the Playground Committee itself is off the tracks. Peter Flynn
calls himself a facilitator, and that he is,
but I thought he was appointed as a school
board Playground Subcommittee chairman. The Committee needs the leadership
of a strong leader who has some vision
about the task ahead. It is my observation
that despite the best efforts of some excellent members, the Committee as a whole is
struggling to find its way.
Moreover, I don't believe the meetings are being properly noticed nor are
the minutes being publicly posted so as
to be available to everybody in the school
district, in accordance with the RSAs. One
of the problems with the first plan is that
the public felt excluded.
I don't believe Mr. Flynn was authorized to say to an interested citizen attending a Playground Committee meeting that
that person can consider him- or herself
a member of the Committee, as he did. I
believe the authority to appoint subcommittee members rests with the full Board.
My knowledge about education theory
is very limited. But is there not some
educational theory or framework that addresses the purpose and need for playgrounds at elementary schools? Aren't we
looking for a place to do more than simply
bum youthful energy? What are the goals
of a good playground, and what's needed
in order to meet them? Shouldn't the Playground Committee be starting with that
information in hand?
Given the gravity of the playground
situation, I find it inexplicable that the
Board did not meet in July, just because
it hasn't met regularly in July in the past.
Isn't there some urgency here?
Was there to be no discussion of the
Primex report, just casual acceptance?
I've gone on too long here. I have the
feeling my comments are not particularly
welcome, but want to make a record of my
thoughts before I fade away from this project. I'll be attending a funeral service for a
high school classmate Wednesday evening,
so I will not be attending your next Board
meeting.
Very truly yours,
John V. Kjellman, Henniker

Town & School explore collaboration 0n 1941 Building
The New London Selectmen met
with the ad hoc committee on the 1941
building to discuss a memo from the New
London CIP Subcommittee that urged
the Selectmen to investigate acquiring
the 1941 building and site for use by the
Town of New London. The 1941 building has been empty since 2008 when the
new Kearsarge Regional Middle School
opened in Sutton. Emilio Cancio-Bello
and Andrew Pinard, members of the ad
hoc committee, explained that the School
Board is very interested in making decisions about what will be done with the
1941 building as the cost to maintain the
building is excessive, and is not a good
use of district funds. It was noted that
if the building and land were to be sold
to the Town of New London it would
require a vote of the district as the School
Board does not have the authority to sell
the building and property.
The selectmen noted that the town
does not currently have any definite plans
for the building and property, rather, the
town’s CIP Subcommittee has indicated,
based on its review of town facilities and
the needs of the various departments and
groups in town, that the town should acquire the property for the future use by the
Town. The ad hoc committee’s position at
this time is that if a group that is compatible with being on the campus (a use that
meets the requirements for being so close
to a school) is not found in the near future
with a definite plan to use and maintain
the 1941 building, it will likely be razed.
A discussion was held on ways the
town and the school district could collaborate on the use of the land and facilities
(the cafeteria and attached classrooms)
in the future, once the 1941 building is
removed.
The ad hoc committee will bring this
matter before the School Board at its next
meeting and will get back to the selectmen with the School Board’s position on
the matter.
The annual Wilmot Townwide Yard Sale is set for Saturday, Aug. 22. Deadline to register – to

WeddingWire, the nation’s leading online wedding marketplace, has named E. Ann Poole, Justice of the Peace as a winner of
the prestigious
WeddingWire
Couples’ Choice
AwardsTM 2015.
The annual awards
program recognizes the top five
percent of wedding
professionals in
the WeddingWire
Network of over
200,000 wedding
professionals who
demonstrate excellence in quality,
service, responsiveness, and professionalism. Unlike
other awards in the
wedding industry, E. Ann Poole
the WeddingWire
Couples’ Choice AwardTM is solely based on recent reviews from
newlyweds and their experiences working with their wedding professionals. Awards are determined by a combination of excellence in
four factors: overall rating (quality), total number of reviews (quantity), review performance from 2014 (recency), and consistency of
reviews from year to year (consistency). For engaged couples, the
award symbolizes legitimacy, reliability, and a proven track record of
success. “I’m thrilled to receive this award in recognition of my work
as a wedding officiant,” said Poole. “I especially want to thank my
past clients for taking the time to submit a review. I truly appreciate
the positive feedback that helped me earn this award.”
Newport Pastor leaving after 5+ years
Pastor Craig Cowing is leaving the South Congregational Church
after serving as pastor to the congregation for five and and a half
years. Cowing is taking a position at Rocky Hill Congregation
Church in Rocky Hill CT. This will be his last week in NH. Many in
the art field may know Cowing for his Iconic Religious paintings, or
for his playing of the Tibetan singing bowls. Every third Friday Pastor Cowling would host an hour of meditation and contemplation
at the church and collect donations for the Newport Food Pantry.
One of his last pastoral duties was the memorial service for Newc
Eldridge who passed away earlier this month. The memorial service
celebrating Newc’s life was at the South Congregational Church in
Newport, NH on August 1.
Highway equipment committee disbands
The Henniker Select Board recently voted to hire Kevin Cahill as
Clerk of the Works for the construction of the new highway garage
with a salary not to exceed $14,900. They also voted to disband,
reluctantly and with thanks, the Highway Equipment Committee as
their charge has been completed. The committee’s final acts were to
recommend to the Board that they accept Trident Insurance’s payments for the 2002 6-wheeler and the 1992 10-wheeler for a total of
$91,500, and to continue to negotiate with Trident on their offers for
the three remaining trucks. The Select Board agreed. It was noted
when asked about the safety of the vehicles that an independent
party was testing to make sure that all facets of the repairs were
done to make sure that they pass all safety requirements.

Bow exploring sites for Public Safety Bldg
The Bow Planning Board has begun exploring potential sites for
the proposed Public Safety building. One site is located farther up
the hill on the same 17-plus acre property at 1 Knox Road that was
proposed for the building last year, so as not to interfere with the
gazebo and sledding hill, according to Pike. Board members and a
neighbor hiked on a snowmobile trail to walk the proposed site’s
boundaries.
The second proposed site, which measured about two acres
was about 350 feet up the trail to where the ground was relatively
flat with a backyard on Turee View Drive which was barely visible through the trees. That places the site within 100 feet of the
nearest neighbors on Jonathan Lane, or twice the minimum buffer
required. It was estimated that buffers to the nearest properties
on Turee View Drive and Heidi Lane were 250 feet and 400 feet,
respectively. Test borings hit neither ledge nor groundwater in this
location. He also said that he believed a 20,000- to 25,000-squarefoot facility with parking could fit within an acre.
It was recommended the request for proposal mandate a 100foot buffer on all sides, and that the town forester develop a plan to
remove large trees from the buffer zone to encourage the growth of
underbrush.
Henniker Board awards Canal Bridge bid
The bids came in on the Western Avenue Canal Bridge, with
M.A.Bean coming in considerably less than anticipated. They specialize in concrete deck replacements and were given a good recommendation by both other towns and Henniker resident and engineer
Jennifer McCourt. The Board voted to award the bid to M.A.Bean for
$265,000. In a related matter, they received a letter from the DOT
advising them that they could go ahead with the Western Avenue
steel bridge replacement.

Triumphant return home for Goffstown Special Olympian
A Goffstown Special Olympian
returned home to a huge celebration on
Wednesday. Hayden Meattey, 20, won
big at the Special Olympics World Games,
winning gold in the 800-meter walk and
a bronze medal in the 400-meter walk.
Meattey is a member of Goffstown High
School's Team Uncanoonic. “Awesome,
(I’m) really proud,” Meatty said. “I was
shocked and excited.”
“It is so exciting. It is so exciting.
It brings tears to my eyes that I am so
proud of him,” said Linda Hatchet, the
Goffstown High School special education facilitator. “He just works so hard in
everything that he does.” Meattey said he
had a blast while he was in Los Angeles
for the games, but he's glad to be home.
Tornado damage in Warner
A tornado about 100 yards wide traveled
a distance of .4 miles and touched down
near Route 103 and Exit 9 of Interstate 89 in
Warner last Thursday.
It crossed Split Rock Road and lifted off
the ground prior to Kearsarge Mountain
Road, but not before a section of a roof of a
large storage building was torn off the building and trees were damaged.
Part of the roof was located about 200
yards from the building, but part of the
rest of the roof had not been immediately
located. There were no injuries reported as a
result of the tornado.

Henniker awards Wastewater Plant bid
Ken Levesque spoke about the Wastewater Treatment Building
and how the roof had started to shrink, pulling the flashing and causing leaks. Although Melanson was the low bidder, they had added
additional costs for curb nailing and Mayo Roofing had not. The difference was about $700.00. Because owner Larry Mayo lives in Henniker and over the last 3 years had visited the building several times
to help repair leaks, the Select Board voted to award the contract to
Mayo Roofing, not to exceed $34,860.
