Nonresidents happy
Selectmen report New London is in "good shape"
The New London Selectmen held their annual Nonresident Taxpayers' meeting on Monday
and to the delight of those attending, announced
that it would be opening the Transfer Station
on Sundays. The Board reported that it had
advertised for a Sunday position at the Transfer
Station which it hoped to fill by next month.
Selectman Tina Helm said she couldn't promise
a specific timeline, but stressed the Board was
trying to be attentive to their needs.
The general message given was that the town
is in "good shape." The three Board members
alternated updating the group on various issues,
including the goal of having have a community
center in the 1941 Building with a combination
of Public and Private funds, the status of the
Elkins Project to upgrade sidewalks and make
the area safer, fixing cracks in the Pleasant
Lake Dam and to repair the Pleasant Lake Boat
Launch. Lamson Lane property owners were
happy to learn of plans to replace culverts and
remove trees to prevent future washouts.
Weare woman sentenced to one year in jail
The Weare woman who stole about $80,000
from her employer's company while it was in
bankruptcy will spend the next year in jail.
Renee Pelletier, 60, begins serving the sentence
at the end of the month and has been ordered
pay restitution to her former employer, Modern
Excavation and Development, a small company
in Merrimack. Pelletier pled guilty to stealing the
money, using more than 500 illegal transactions
over a three year period.
The evidence showed that she forged owner
Christopher Dunn's signature on more than 315
checks issued to her personal creditors and to
"Cash" and also used the company's checking
account to make another 233 online transactions
to pay off her debts.

Strum Ruger donates firearms to the NRA
An exclusive collection of rifles and pistols now have a home at
the National Rifle Association Headquarters Range thanks to a special donation from Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. Numbering eight
guns in all, the collection will be made available when hosting special
events and guests. “Ruger is delighted to provide these firearms to
the NRA Range,” said Chris Killoy, Ruger’s Vice President of Sales
and Marketing. “The staff at the range do a fantastic job for all of us
when they introduce media personnel, politicians, and other visitors
to safe and responsible firearms use.” While the range has always
had plenty of ammunition, their inventory never included firearms.
For events held at the range such as the Youth Education Summit
and the annual Veterans Day Shoot, NRA employees would offer
up their personal firearms. Thanks to Ruger, such a sacrifice is no
longer necessary. “The NRA Range staff is thrilled with the donation,” said NRA Headquarters Range Manager Michael Johns. “Now
Ruger will be the first trigger everyone pulls at all of our events.”
Sugar River donates to Mitchell Park
MainStreet Warner, Inc. recently received a donation from
Sugar River Bank to apply towards the completion of the stage and
amphitheater in the Jim Mitchell Community Park. Steve Gratton, Board member of MainStreet Warner, Inc. states, “The bank’s
show of support for this project means so much to us, as we near
the stage’s completion and prepare for the park to provide the
Main Stage for this year’s Warner Fall Foliage Festival in October.
Our small town bank, Sugar River Bank, is the epitome of what a
community bank can mean to its residents. They know us, they care
about this community, and they are really here for us."
Sunapee may receive FEMA assistance
Sunapee Road Agent Scott Hazelton reviewed the bid proposals for Winn Hill Road and Trow Hill Road with the Selectmen.
Four companies submitted proposals for engineering and design
services. Hazelton, said he has money in his budget left over from
the completed paving projects, to put towards one of these projects,
and recommended putting this money towards Winn Hill Road,
which was on this year’s paving schedule. Hazelton is also working
with FEMA on the recent storms and washouts as the Town may be
eligible for costs to assist withthe Trow Hill design.

Henniker Community School & John Stark to share Chinese teacher
The U.S.-China Teachers Exchange Program, established in 1996 by the National
Committee on U.S. China Relations with
funding from the Freeman Foundation, will
bring Ms. Zhang Yang to the United States
to teach Chinese language and culture at
the Henniker Community School and John
Stark Regional High School in the coming
school year. Zhang Yang is one of 10 Chinese teachers traveling to the U.S. for this
program. There are five American teachers
traveling to China to teach English this year
in this exchange program.
“We are ever so pleased to welcome Ms.
Zhang to our faculty team for this school
year,” said John Stark Principal Christopher Corkery. “In addition to having her
continue Chinese language instruction for
our world language students, we are looking
forward to having her infuse cultural lessons
across our curriculum by co-teaching with
other faculty members. 21st Century Skills are universal and
the perspective Ms. Zhang can offer our
school community is invaluable,” continued
Corkery. She is expected to arrive in New
Hampshire just prior to the opening day of
school on August 28 and will reside with a
local family.
“The idea to be part of this exchange with
the National Committee on U.S. China Relations came about more than 10 years ago in
Henniker because of our Artist in Residency
program,” said HCS Principal Katherine
McBride. “After that first very successful
year, we decided the logical progression
would be to share a Chinese Exchange
teacher with John Stark. This way our students have the opportunity to be exposed to
Chinese language and cultural opportunities
through their high school years,” continued
McBride.
The cost for the Henniker Community
School and John Stark Regional High School
to host a Chinese Exchange Teacher through
this program is $5,000 and is shared equally
by the two districts.

With sunny skies and low humidity it
was a perfect day for the Hillsboro Lions
Club's Annual Golf Tournament on Saturday. Off to a shotgun start, the 56 golfers finished their 18 holes and sat down
to a fabulous lunch provided by Angus
Lea owners Curt and Linda Niven.
According to chairs Karen Booth,
Barbara Hays and Ann Mooney, an
abundance of sponsorships by local
merchants allowed the Lions to raise
over $6,000 for its community service
projects such as Christmas Baskets,
Downtown Holiday Lights, HDES Audio
& Sight Testing, RIF and the Senior
Citizen's Dinner.

Sunapee High School Class of 1953 reunion
In 1953, eleven seniors graduated from Sunapee High School. J.D. and Carol Colcord of Warner hosted a 60th high school reunion
at their home on July 20th. Seven alumni from as far away as Utah,
Colorado, Florida, Massachusetts and New Hampshire gathered
together to reminisce about their experiences over the years and
show off grand and great grandchildren photographs. The celebration included a cook-out and a green and white decorated cake with
the school colors, green and white. A group photograph was taken to
memorialize the event.

People who take immunosuppressive drugs to treat
lupus do not necessarily increase their cancer risk,
according to new research led by scientists at the
Research Institute of the McGill University Health
Centre (RI-MUHC). This landmark study, which was

addresses long-standing fears of a link between

lupus medication and cancer. Systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE), commonly known as lupus, is an autoimmune disease
in which the body’s immune system attacks healthy tissue such as the
skin, joints, kidneys and the brain, leading to inflammation and lesions.
Previous research has suggested that lupus patients have an increased
risk of developing cancer, particularly lymphoma. Lymphoma is a type
of blood cancer that occurs when cells called lymphocytes, which
usually help protect the body from infection and disease, begin
growing and multiplying uncontrollably, leading to tumor growth.

Warner man killed in Florida accident
A Warner motorcyclist was killed in Florida last Friday after hitting a truck that pulled in front of him. The Florida Highway Patrol
reports that a GMC 1500 pickup being driven by Andrew N. Crone,
26, of Bradenton was northbound on U.S. 41 and began turning left
onto 53rd Avenue West, through a solid yellow light. Riding southbound on his 2000 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, Travis L. Podgis,
28, of Warner, N.H., laid his motorcycle onto its side, but could not
avoid striking Crone's truck. Podgis, who was not wearing a helmet,
was thrown from the motorcycle, and later pronounced dead at a
local hospital. Charges are expected to be filed.
Whaleback ski area sold at foreclosure
Whaleback Mountain ski area has been sold at foreclosure
auction to the bank holding the mortgage on the property. As first reported in the Valley News, Randolph National Bank was the sole bidder, offering the reserve price of $848,000 for the 154-acre property.
The ski area, which first opened as Snowcrest in 1955, was renamed
in 1968, and closed in March for lack of new investors. Bank officials
say several people are interested in purchasing and reopening the
facility. According to John Schiffman, who tried to raise money to
run the area, Whaleback will be operating again this winter.
Warner sued over civil rights violation?
Warner Selectman Chairman David Hartman recently moved to
go into nonpublic session at 8:15 p.m. under RSA91-A:3 II (e), legal.
In attendance: Chairman Hartman, Selectman Clyde Carson, Selectman David Karrick, and Town Administrator Jim Bingham. During
the short session Bingham informed the Board about a possible civil
rights claim. No further details are available

Newport Historical Society explores the history thru postcards
Before everyone had cameras (and
then cell phone cameras), postcards
captured the local sights and made them
available inexpensively. Friends and
relatives could send photos of their town,
local celebrations, and sometimes, its
people, with a short personal note, for
only a one or two penny stamp. The sentimental value of these photo souvenirs
of your own town, or your own vacation
trip, meant that postcards were saved
over the years.
This volume of treasured postcards
from earlier times, and people’s love of
accumulating these glimpses of the past,
lead to the hobby of postcard collecting,
called Deltiology, the third largest hobby
today.
Larry Cote purchased two Newport
postcards in the early 1980's and was
intrigued with the history of his town
that they presented. The two postcards
comprised his entire collection until 1993,
when he met Hal Campbell, a long-time
avid collector of postcards from all of the
towns in the area. Today Larry has about
800 postcards from the Newport, Guild,
Kelleyville and Corbin Park.
On Tuesday, August 13, Larry will
give a slide presentation on the history
of postcards, and their value in capturing
local history. This talk will be held in the
Richards Library Ballroom, from 6:307:45. There is NO admission charge.

Group maintains Mt Kearsarge trails
A group of NH teenagers have been working on trail maintenance on Mount Kearsarge. Members of the Student Conservation
Association, they are dedicated to protecting and restoring national parks, marine sanctuaries, cultural landmarks and community
green spaces in all 50 states. As its mission, SCA hopes to build
the next generation of conservation leaders and inspire lifelong
stewardship of the environment and communities by engaging
young people in hands-on service to the land. The N.H. corps sent
30 student members to Bear Brook State Park in January, and in
April, members began conservation work throughout the state.
For the past two weeks, a nine-member team has been working on
Mount Kearsarge, clearing brush from the paths, making sure the
drainage ditches stay clean, and making sure the trails are in good
shape.

Colby-Sawyer's 5K Dash & Stroll set for September 14th
Colby-Sawyer College will host its eighth
annual College-Community 5K Dash &
Stroll, a non-competitive fun run and walk,
on Saturday, Sept. 14. Community members
of all ages are encouraged to participate free
of charge. Registration will take place on the
event day on the college’s Front Lawn (rain
location: Thornton Living Room in Colgate
Hall) beginning at 9 a.m. The start time for
walkers is 10 a.m. and 10:15 a.m. for runners.
The route for runners and walkers begins at
Colgate Hall and winds through New London's downtown and residential areas and
back to campus.
Light refreshments will be available. In
keeping with the college’s commitment to
sustainable living, the Dash & Stroll will be a
zero-waste event with recycling available and
plant-based cups and napkins that can be
composted after use.
Colby-Sawyer President Thomas C. Galligan Jr., an avid runner who created the event
in his first year at the college, encourages college and community members to participate
in the Dash & Stroll. The event celebrates the
close relationship between the college and its
neighboring communities, which began more
than 175 years ago when residents of New
London established New London Academy.
“The Dash & Stroll is a wonderful way to
bring college and community members together for a fun and healthy event,” said President
Galligan. “Everyone can go at their own pace.”

Mount Kearsarge is known to most from the Rollins State
Park side in Warner, which is only a half-mile walk from the
summit. On the other side of the mountain is Winslow State
Park, with a longer climb and an excellent spot for a picnic on a
summer day. Located at 475 Kearsarge Valley Road in Wilmot,
it is easy to find. From Route 11, follow the signs up to Winslow
on the snaking road with switchbacks and gorgeous views.
The road narrows away into a sort of tunnel of trees where
you will find a little toll house. The charge is $4 for adults and
$2 for children ages 6-11. Those who are over 65 or under 5
can go to Winslow for free. In the parking lot, lined with birch
trees, there is a gazebo where you can see as far as Vermont,
with the White Mountains and nearby lakes and ponds in the
foreground. Swing sets and a children's play area is located in
the center, and there are nice picnic tables with grills set up for
your use. There is a bath house and port-a-potties set up in the
parking area.

Pats Peak announces improvements for 2013-2014 season
Pats Peak enters into its 51st consecutive ski and snowboard season under the
same local family ownership. There are
exciting improvements in store for the
2013/2014 season with a new triple chairlift to service four new trails and one glade
as part of the Cascade Basin expansion, a
new area with 100% snowmaking coverage; (6) additional energy-efficient snowmaking guns; more rental equipment; and
the installation of geothermal heating.
Kris Blomback, General Manager, commented, "We always strive to provide our
guests with something new and exciting
every season. This season we are excited
to showcase our largest expansion." This
summer Pats Peak installed a new triple
chairlift as part of their Cascade Basin
Expansion. This will bring the number of
chairlifts to six, giving Pats Peak the largest
uphill capacity in the region to assure a
great day on the snow.
Cascade Basin is a completely new area
on the "backside" of the main mountain.
For the 2013/2014 season, the new area
will consist of four new ski trails as well
as one new glade. The trails will have
100% snowmaking coverage to continue
to provide quality snow surfaces. Future
options include more terrain, night skiing
and additional terrain parks.

It's Up To You To Complete The Loop
A few weeks ago we published a story
outlining how the Hillsboro Lions Club
spent over $17,000 on several community
service projects as a way of giving back to
the town. On page 5 of today's issue, you
will find a story on the Club's Annual Golf
Tournament which raised over $6,000 to
fund those projects this year. We all, or at
least most of us, know that money doesn't
grow on trees.
In addition to the golfer's registration fees, the vast majority of that $6,000
came from the generous sponsorships
(donations) of local merchants that
consistently support the Lions, Chamber,
Guest Editorial
Hillsborough Pride, Boy & Girl Scouts and
our churches. This is not unique. Lions,
Rotarians and others are doing the same
in Antrim, Bennington, Henniker, Weare,
Hopkinton, New London, Sunapee, Newport, Peterborough and Andover.
Local merchants support the groups
which support the community. Now it's up
to you to close the loop by shopping local
to support these merchants, our friends
and neighbors. It is funny how that works,
but they can't give anything back if they
don't get it in the first place. Please think
of that the next time you plan on spending
precious dollars out of town.

Repealing ObamaCare is worth doing right
ObamaCare is an awful law. It’s falling
apart under its own weight, and President
Obama has already been forced to waive key
provisions several times to prevent the law's
disastrous consequences from fully hitting
us. Repealing ObamaCare is good idea, and
Congress should do everything it can to get
rid of it. Unfortunately, the push to defund
ObamaCare through the appropriations
process just won’t work.
Utah Senator Mike Lee is gathering allies who promise to oppose any Continuing
Resolution to keep government operating
unless it defunds the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act, known as ObamaCare.
Federal programs are authorized and defined
in statute, but zeroing out federal funding
has the effect of repealing that statute, since
there is no one being paid to administer or
enforce it. House Republicans voted repeatedly to repeal the law wholesale last year,
and once again this year, but Majority Leader
Harry Reid will never let such a repeal come
to a vote in the Senate.
I’ve covered Reid’s complete failure
to run the Senate before, but it’s worth
mentioning again because its the reason why
Congress has been unable to pass the Appro-

John Shadegg, and Senate efforts to curb
wasteful spending from the like of John
McCain and John Sununu, Congressional
Republicans lost credibility with their base.
By 2010, discontent with bailouts, boondoggles, and deficits fueled the Tea Party
movement.
Without credibility, many Tea Party voters seek purity. They want Senators like Lee,
Paul, and Cruz to hold the line, no matter
what. In this case, they’re holding the wrong
line. It doesn’t help that conservative organizations are eager to raise money on the false
promise of ending ObamaCare.
Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn, the Senate’s most hardline fiscal hawk and leading
ObamaCare critic, recognizes that blocking a
CR won’t get rid of the law. If the Senate were
to vote on defunding the law, it’s conceivable
that a few shaky Democrats would take the
opportunity to distance themselves from the
disaster they created. But without the President’s support or a 2/3 of the House and
Senate, such a road would leave much of the
federal government shut down and ObamaCare fully funded.
I’ve not been shy criticizing Reid and
New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen
for their willingness to ignore the rules and
traditions of the Senate. I’m just as willing
to chide Lee and his colleagues for their
failure to understand how the Senate works.
Senate Republicans should demand an up or
down vote on ObamaCare repeal, and Reid
and Shaheen should be branded as the real
obstructionists for refusing to allow one.
But refusing to federal programs in order to
repeal an unrelated law just doesn’t make
sense.
Daniel Webster, then a New Hampshire
Congressman, tried to end the War of 1812
by defunding it. The resulting backlash stymied his Presidential ambitions for the rest
of his life. Webster paid a heavy price for his
futile effort. Lee, Paul, and Cruz may learn
that same lesson.

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
I would like to respond to Karen Testerman’s letter published 2 August. Major
Nidal Husan’s e-mails were monitored
under the Bush administration. At least 19
were copied.
Benghazi was obviously never discussed
electronically. Boston was never discussed
electronically.

THE
priations Bills that fund the federal government. Instead, the House and Senate have
agreed to a series of short-term Continuing
Resolutions to keep the government running.
Lee is one of 11 Senators, along with
60 House Republicans, who’ve said they
won’t approve another CR unless it defunds
ObamaCare, even if that means a government shutdown like 1995.
Repealing ObamaCare outright, defunding it, or simply waiving its requirements like
the President did for the employer mandate
are worth pursuing. But Lee’s strategy is both
short-sighted and politically foolish.
First of all, failure to pass a Continuing
Resolution won’t shut down ObamaCare. As
New Hampshire Senator Kelly Ayotte pointed out, the law is funded through mandatory
spending, not the year to year discretionary
spending covered under Appropriations Bills.
A shutdown would close National Parks, but
the HHS employees implementing ObamaCare so badly would still get paid.
So why are Lee, and Senate firebrands
Rand Paul and Ted Cruz, threatening a last
stand against ObamaCare that is doomed to
fail? I blame George W. Bush.
It’s become cliché for the left to blame all
manner of problems on the former President,
and the current Administration certainly isn’t
shy about pointing fingers towards the ranch
in Texas five years after taking office. But we
can trace the origins of the current push by
some Republicans to defund ObamaCare or
shut down government to the Bush Administration.
While Bush’s first budget to Congress
was pretty good, and the Bush tax cuts in
2001 and 2003 helped speed an economic
recovery that led to booming federal revenues. But in the aftermath of 9/11, Bush
deferred almost entirely to Congress to make
budget decisions. Appropriators turned to
unprecedented amounts of earmarks to push
through unprecedented spending that rose
even faster. Deficits skyrocketed, and spendthrifts like Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama
were able to campaign as stewards of fiscal
responsibility.
Despite some vocal opposition from
House conservatives like Jeff Flake and

Volunteers needed for Food Pantry Garden
The 2013 garden is going full swing. All
the vegetables are growing very well. There
is a good harvest of lettuce and tomatoes,
peppers, cabbage, herbs, kale and collards.
Come by the garden on Bear Hill Road see
how nice the garden looks. Hillsborough
needs someone to take over this endeavor
for the year 2014, as this is the last year Harry & Jacki Morehouse can manage the Food
Pantry Garden. The Food Pantry Garden
was started in 2008 by the Scott family on
Bear Hill Rd. and has continued successfully
under the management of Harry & Jacki
Morehouse.
If you like playing in the dirt, growing
veggies, flowers and herbs for The Food
Pantry in Hillsborough you will love this
rewarding volunteer position. The vegetables grown provide a good direction to
better nutrition for the clients receiving food
at the Food Pantry. The Food Pantry Garden
is of vital importance to this community,
not only as physical nourishment, but also a
spiritual one.
You will have the opportunity to meet
new people, learn something new every day
and know that you are helping people to
a better diet. Also, Harry & I have noticed
that we are in better physical condition
since volunteering at the FPG. If you are
interested in taking over the garden you
are invited to join us for the 2013 season.
Please call us at: 464-4016 or email [email protected].
Suspended Weare lieutenant James Carney retires
The Town of Weare is in the process
of replacing its Police Chief and now
faces another key vacancy in the Department. Lt. James Carney, who has
been on paid administrative leave since
March, has retired effective July 1st. The
town had accused Carney of having an
intimate relationship with an employee,
transporting alcohol in a police vehicle,
failing to enforce the department’s sexual
harassment policy, coercing employees,
getting into physical altercations with
police and civilians, and sharing confidential personnel records. However, his
attorney, Tony Soltani, claims Carney
was a whistleblower who brought a series
of complaints to selectmen, including
incidents of sexual harassment, abuse of
authority by officers, the falsification of
reports and perjury.

side of the story from Jane Smedley and Julia Brisbane
who claim residents did bring their dogs there but they are
always well behaved and under control. Their words were
echoed by New London Recreation Director Scott Blewitt,
who said the dog owners are being responsible. After hearing those reports, the Board decided to table discussion of
the dog issue for now.

reported the department, to date, has responded to about 180 calls, of that about
75% were medical emergencies. Seven
firefighters graduated from the Fire Academy in February. A new heart monitor
was purchased for $11K. Through a donation provided by Mary and Eli Cogswell
the department was able to purchase a
chest compression tool.
The department is in the process of
applying for a grant for replacing about
20 self breathing apparatus. Typically
they cost about $8K each; the current
ones are about 20 years old and not in
compliance. Selectman Carson asked if
the grant is not successful will the expense be in the 2014 budget. Ed said no,
he would begin replacing them slowly.
Dispatch is going to start Pre-Alert
in August which means any medical
emergency that comes into 911 during
the 4 minute question series the call will
be pre-toned allowing the volunteers to
get to the station quicker, there will also
be a cell phone text message to those fire
department members who sign up for the
text message.
The new rescue vehicle will be ready
in about 3 weeks. Chairman Hartman
asked why Warner does not transport
to Concord Hospital. Ed said the start
up cost is about $150K plus a special
transport license, plus extra personnel.
The Chief said the arrangement with
Hopkinton is more cost effective. There
will be a future discussion regarding a
new fire station.
Henniker Rotary Club President Jay Burgess thanks Todd Bookman, Healthcare Reporter for
New Hampshire Public Radio for his presentation to the club.

Club Soda appearing at Henniker's Angela Robinson Bandstand
Appearing for the first time at the
Angela Robinson Bandstand on August 20
is Club Soda. This four piece band based
in Concord, NH has got it all going on. All
four members are highly skilled musicians,
singers and performers, playing a wide
variety of Top 40, Classic Rock, Dance and
a sprinkle of 70’s Disco - making every show
full of fun. A Show Band with high energy,
dynamic harmonies, powerful instrumentation and true professionalism, they have
been a mainstay at parties, dance clubs and
special events for over 30 years, entertaining
audiences throughout New England.
The band includes founding member,
Carl Smith, one of the most versatile voices
in New England. Carl sings lead and plays
keyboards and you’ll think you’re listening
to the original artist when you hear him;
Richard Bickford, also from Concord, serves
as the group’s “musical director” and has a
real flair for arrangements.
He sings lead and plays lead and bass
guitar as well as writing original songs; John

Hancock Meeting House. (Union Leader/Megan Pierce photo)
Restorations for Hancock's Meetinghouse
Members of the Hancock Meetinghouse Restoration Fundraising Subcommittee met Wednesday night to plan for a $1
million renovation campaign. Committee member and architect
David Drasba started the process several years ago when he secured an LCHIP grant to study the building. Uniquely in Hancock,
the church and the town share ownership of the building, so the
committee has representatives of both groups. According to Pastor Judy Copeland the building is in good shape considering its
age. The 100-year-old slate roof should be replaced. The building
was erected in 1821 and moved across Main Street to its present
location about 1850. The Committee hopes to update the electricity
and heating system and add handicapped accessible bathrooms
and a platform lift to replace the chairlift along the curved stairway
which leads to the church sanctuary.While it serves as a church on
Sunday morning, the multi-function building has also been used
for concerts, fundraisers, and as Town Offices, Town Meetings and
for voting.
Female hiker injured on Mt. Kearsarge
New Hampshire Fish and Game officials say a Mount Kearsarge
hiker injured her leg and required assistance after her dog pulled
her as they were descending a trail. Twenty-three-year-old Erin
Parnell of Lebanon had hiked to the summit on Monday. She was
making her way back to the parking at Winslow State Park when
she lost her footing and twisted her ankle. She was able to hike
down the Barlow Trail for about a quarter of a mile, but needed
help after that. Rescuers from the Wilmot, New London and Sutton
fire departments responded and she was taken to a hospital.
Mature, reliable, crew members wanted to join our
fast-paced team. FT or PT, all shifts.
Must be flexible and able to work weekends and
holidays, enjoy working with the public.
Apply at 258 W. Main St., Hillsborough.
No phone calls, please.
