Citizen of the Year
The Newport Area Chamber of
Commerce officially honored David
Lantz (r) as its Distinguished Citizen of
the Year during their Annual Banquet
last Thursday night. Lantz, who
owns MJ Harrington’s Jewelers was
recognized for his time and energy
spent in making the Newport area
a better place. Lantz said he was
honored. The Chamber also voted
Steve Smith (l) of WCNL as its new
president. Smith was also master of
ceremonies for the event.
Patricia Hamel was inside the house when the roof collapsed, but escaped without injury.

Games Downunder
Three hundred US high school track
athletes have been invited to Australia
for Games Downunder. Of those 5 are
from NH with 3 from Hillsboro-Deering.
Ian Robie (l) will enter throwing events
while Hannah Murdough ( c) and
Brehna Savoy ( r) will enter running
events. A recent Spaghetti Supper
raised almost $700 for the "Track Trio",
but more is needed. Look for future
events to help defray the cost.

A Henniker family is homeless after the
roof of their home caved in under the 30
inches of snow, that weighed nearly one
ton, which was more than Carl Hamel's roof
could bear. No one was injured when the roof
caved in, but the house is no longer suitable
to live in. The Hamel family lived in the
home for 32 years.
Hamel was preparing to clear snow from
the roof when he heard a noise. "I could hear
it crack and it just went," he said. "The roof
just collapsed."
Hamel was standing in the driveway
when the roof collapsed, but his wife Patricia
was inside the house. He said everything the
family owned is damaged. He said it's a total
loss because he does not have insurance.
Members of the community have come
forward with financial donations and
clothing.
Ed Andersen is New London's new Police Chief
The New London Selectmen have
announced that Edward G. Andersen has
been appointed Police Chief tile Town of
New London. Andersen began his career in
law enforcement in 1997 when he was sworn
in as patrolman for the New London Police
Department. He rose through the ranks and
was named Acting Chief in April 2013. The
Board spent several months conducting a
search for the permanent police chief and had
several well qualified candidates interested in
serving. A three step interview process was
utilized where candidates were interviewed by
a board of law enforcement officials; a citizens
committee and finally by the Selectmen.
Andersen was selected as the person best
able to lead the Department based in large
part on his demonstrated commitment to
the citizens of New London over the past 16
years. The Selectmen look forward to working
with Chief Andersen as he assumes his new
role. The Board will announce the date for
the swearing in ceremony when it becomes
available.

Mistrust apparent between Warner Selectmen and Fire Department
The Warner Selectmen discussed the
three cost scenarios for the proposed fire
station:
• $2.7 million is the base construction;
complete construction on the first floor
and limited completion on the second
floor; the elevator would also be installed.
• $2.4 is for less construction on the
second floor. The elevator would only have
the shaft and mechanical room, no walls
on the second floor but the mechanic’s
would be installed and blocked off.
• $2.9 million is for the full complete
construction.
When Selectman Clyde Carson
asked if this cost includes a pellet boiler,
Administrator Jim Bingham said no, that
would add another $100K. Carson does
not want to see the Town take another
shortcut on energy efficient heating.
Bingham said the design does include
radiant heat on the first floor in the bay
area.
Carson said there are still questions
regarding the site selection, and Hartman
does not feel that the Department of
Environmental Services who approved the
permits looked at the long-term erosion
problem on the site; DES only determined
that there will be no impact to the existing
wetland area on the property.
Selectman Karrick wondered if the
Fire Department is taking this seriously,
to which John Leavitt said that he found
Karrick's comment interesting because
he has heard the same from the Fire
Department, are the Selectmen taking
it serious. Bingham said they have
recognized that, since the fall there have
been 3 or 4 meetings and it was said at

Statins — the popular class of cholesterollowering drugs used widely to prevent recurrent heart disease or stroke as well as risk for
having a first cardiac or stroke event — appear
to cause few side effects, according to new research reported in Circulation: Cardiovascular

Finasteride, a drug used to treat enlarged prostate and male
pattern baldness, also reduces a man’s risk of prostate cancer
by nearly a third, according to a large new study published
in New England Journal of Medicine. The findings on nearly
19,000 men also overturn earlier concerns that treatment with
finasteride — the agent in the prostate drug Proscar and the
hair-loss drug Propecia — might promote the development of
more virulent prostate cancers in men who contract the disease, researchers said.

Diabetic patients taking oral fluoroquinolones, a frequently prescribed class of antibiotics, were found to have a higher risk
of severe blood-sugar-related problems that diabetic patients
taking other kinds of antibiotics, according to a recent study
published in Clinical Infectious Diseases. The increased risk was
low, but clinicians should consider the higher risk when treating
diabetic patients with fluoroquinolones, especially moxifloxacin,
and prescribe them cautiously, the study’s authors concluded.

Fluffy Monsters benefit Dunbar library
The Fluffy Monsters DI Team has donated $140 to the Dunbar

from a dance held in January. The Fluffy Monsters are known
by day as Emma Cranage, Andrea Rental, Kaitlyn Eylander,
Erin Panella, Alex Matzkin and Emma Ask. They’re fourth and
fifth grade pupils at Grantham Village School. Team manager is
Aurora Matzkin. According to the girls, they chose the Destination
Imagination Service Learning Challenge because they had such
a good time with it last year. They chose to raise money for the
library because they want to help the library expand and they
chose to host a dance because they love dancing.
Goffstown boy gets bone marrow transplant
Dozens of people turned out for a Saturday fundraiser for
2-year-old Aybel Martin, the Goffstown boy who is fighting a rare
form of leukemia. Aybel has been recovering at Boston Children's
Hospital since he underwent a bone marrow transplant two weeks
ago. His family says it is grateful for the support it has received.
Donors came to Nashua at Martha's Exchange on Saturday to
raise money for Aybel. Aybel's bone marrow donor is not known
but is believed to be a 21-year-old woman from the United States.
It will take about three months until doctors know if the transplant
will cure his cancer.
iPad believed stolen from Franklin student
Franklin police were trying to track down the person
responsible for stealing an iPad Mini from a student with autism.
Officers said someone stole the device from a car parked on Canal
Street on Saturday around noon. The iPad belongs to a child with
autism, and it is the primary way he communicates. The family
later found the iPad . A local businessman had already offered to
replace the device.
Singer/storyteller Odds Bodkin visits H-D Middle School
On Thursday, February 20th the
Hillsboro Deering Middle School hosted
Odds Bodkin at their School Community
Meeting.
Bodkin spent two hours singing and
playing his guitar, but also showing
students an array of pictures which tied
the story of the Greek gods to the real
science of the earth. He began with a
song depicting the “Clash of the Titans”
and how the gods of Olympus came to
be. He went on to make the connections
between how the Greeks viewed the world
and used math to build their empire and
explain the natural phenomenon around
them. Odds Bodkin has been singing and
telling stories to students of all ages since
1982. Thanks to Shelley Cutter, 6th grade
science teacher who submitted a grant
proposal to the Duncan-Jenkins Grant
Fast action saves woman's life
Goffstown Police Officers Tom
Defosses and Konrad Jaworowski
responded to a 911 call within three
minutes and helped save the life of a
woman in a suspected heroin overdose.
When they found an unconscious,
19-year-old woman who was not
breathing, the officers immediately
began administering CPR and attached
an automated external defibrillator to
the victim. They continued CPR until
the woman was revived, and they stayed
with her until Goffstown fire and rescue
arrived. The overdose and alleged heroin
possession are still under investigation
and police would not release the name of
the woman.
Committee and their generous donation,
we were able to get Odds here to sing,
tell and show our students about Greek
Mythology, Geology and the science
behind gravity, volcanoes, plate tectonics,
and the history behind how our rivers,
mountains and continents were formed.
This was an extraordinary experience
for the HDMS students to be exposed to
the talents of Odds Bodkin.

New Claremont grade system draws fire
Criticism at Wednesday’s Claremont School Board meeting of
the district’s new grading system has prompted a review. The
new system replaces the traditional letter grade system — A
through F grading — with levels such as proficient, proficient
plus and proficient with distinction.“It’s based on competency,”
said Middletown McGoodwin,
Superintendent of SAU 6. The new
system was implemented throughout
the SAU in the fall of 2012, after a pilot
program, he said. The idea behind
the new system is to measure what
students are actually learning by
determining the level of competency
they are at in a subject. Different
teachers focus on different areas of
a subject, he said, and often give a
SAU 6 Superintendent
letter grade based on varying factors.
Middleton McGoodwin.
“With an A, B or C, a student receives
a B from one teacher and a different
teacher in the same subject would give the student a different
grade,” McGoodwin said. Some parents and teachers said the
new system is confusing and not consistent with other schools
and higher education. In McGoodwin said he will contact parents
and staff this week and ask them to complete a survey regarding
the new system. Then in March a committee to evaluate the new
grading system will be formed.
Bradford woman injured in fatal crash
Police say a Mitsubishi 300 GT driven by Nghia Huynh, 37,

into the northbound lane and hitting a Hyundai Sonata driven
by Bernd Eslner of Germany and causing Patricia Poliquin, 55, of
Bradford to hit Eslner’s Hyundai. Huynhs 17 year old terminally
ill son, Kobe, was pronounced dead at the scene. Nghia Huynh,
was transported to Elliott Hospital and Patricia Poliquin was
transported to Catholic Medical Center for evaluation. Nghia
Huynh was arrested at Elliot Hosptial and charged with DWI.
Claremont man injured in VT accident
A Claremont man crashed his Honda Civic on I-91 on Sunday.
Police say Kyle Shaban 23, was traveling north on I-91 in Windsor
when his car hit a wet icy patch in the passing causing him to lose
control and go into the median and then went airborne. Shaban
and his passenger each received minor cuts but refused treatment.
Shaban was issued a written warning for traveling too fast for
conditions and not wearing a seatbelt.
Weare students are heading to the polls
Students at both Center Woods Elementary School and Weare
Middle School will be voting Tuesday, March 11 from 4-7 PM at
the Weare Middle School.While their ballots will look similar to an
official town ballot, they’ll be voting on such “kid” issues as whether
or not they would like to see their school principal in a student jump
rope challenge or if they would like archery offered in all grades.
Voting will be held at Weare Middle School, the same location
as voters 18 and over will be going to cast their vote on Election
Day. Kids will be voting in the lobby while town voters will be
in the gym. “We want our students to grow up to take their civic
responsibilities very seriously; we want them to know their vote is
important, and that it counts. said Principal Potter.

provoking contest at the New Hampshire
Department's finals in the 2014 High
School Oratorical Program held at The
New Hampshire Institute of Politics at St.
Anselm College on Saturday, February 8,
2014. This year, there were six contestants
vying for top prize and the chance to
represent New Hampshire in April at the
National level. The contest consisted of two parts: the
first, a 10-minute prepared oration on
any part of the Constitution; the second,
one of four Amendments, one of which
was chosen by lottery; the choice was
Amendment 4 - “the right of people to be
secure in their persons, houses, papers
and effects, against unreasonable searches
and seizures shall not violated, and no
warrants shall issue, but upon probable
cause, supported by Oath or affirmation,
and particularly describing the place to
be searched, and the persons or things to
be seized.” Prior to this time, none of the
candidates knew which Amendment would

Felicia Starr asked the Bradford Selectmen if in fact the Town
Meeting will be held at the Highway Department. When told that
it would be, she questioned the heating and child care. John Pfeifle
stated that everyone cannot fit in the school so the Board looked
for a place that would hold voters. Transportation will be provided
by the bus company who will pick up and deliver from and to the
school, post office and Pizza Chef. They will also have a vehicle to
pick up walkers, which is donated by Mount Sunapee. Cilley Lane
will be closed to traffic unless handicapped and it will be lighted. The
parking ban on Main Street will be lifted for parking there. Child
care has not been taken into consideration at this time. Felicia also
questioned where the money would come from.
Celebration of Weare's 250th Anniversary
Heleen Kurk, Weare 250th Committee, told the Board that their
Chili and Chowder Fest held on February 8th was outstanding with
a full house of all ages in attendance. The historical slide show of
east Weare was well prepared and well received. The committee’s
January Winter Field Day was attended by 200 people despite the
frigid temperatures. Mrs. Kurk’s hope is that the Selectmen will
attend different occasions throughout the year-long celebration.
The next event, The Other Side of the Midnight Ride, will be held on
March 22nd at 7:00 p.m. at the Town Hall. The event is sponsored
by a grant from the NH Humanities Council and will be a program
by Joan Gatturna telling the story of Rachel Revere’s view of Paul
Revere.
Bow voters asked to approve $13.1 million for safety complex
In 2012 Bow voters approved funding
the design of a new public safety building
but, last year defeated a bond for $7.7
million to build it by 48 votes. This year’s
proposal has been reduced by about $1
million by cutting about 5,000 square feet
of space.
This year there are three warrant
articles dealing with the issue. Article
3 asks for $6,796,000 to build and
equip a public safety building for the
fire, ambulance and rescue, police and
dispatch services.
Article 5 seeks $4,640,000 to renovate
the fire station and the community center,
while Article 6 requests $1,724,000 to
renovate the existing police station. Each
article calls for $30,000 to be raised by
taxation with the remanded in bonds and
each requires a 2/3 vote.
Claremont's new cell service

Technology. Owen Smith Regional Vice
President of External and Government
Affairs for AT&T says Claremont’s towers
have been upgraded or the new service. The
Launch is part of AT&T’s project velocity
a 3 year investment plan announced in
the fall of 2012 to expand and enhance
its broadband Networks. Smith says the
LTE allows to consumers to do more

Publisher’s Perspective by Leigh Bosse
Criticism misguided - apology needed
For the second time in less than a year,
the Concord Monitor has reprinted an
editorial from the Valley News critical of
the Attorney General and New London
officials for their handling of the egregious
actions of former Police Chief David
Seastrand. While I agree that the Attorney
General's office has mishandled the
matter and labeled its determination not
to bring criminal charges "Disgusting" in
last week's Publisher's Perspective, I find
the Monitor's and Valley News' attack on
New London officials un- justified and
misinformed.
The editorial states, "We reach this
conclusion based on a recent release of
documents by the Attorney General's office
and the official reaction in New London
to their disclosure." It quotes Select Board
Chair Tina Helm with saying that the
selectmen were intent on moving on and
probably would not discuss the matter
again. In particularly harsh commentary
it continued, " Town Administrator
Kimberly Hallquist joined the crowd intent
on burying their heads in the sand, saying
that she had not read news accounts of the
allegations contained in the documents
and had no intention of reading the
attorney general's report itself. "I'm not
interested in it. I don't have to read it."
Of course they don't have to read it.
it is a useless rehash of long known facts,
only spiced up with more salaceous
details. The newspapers' painting of
a picture of disregard and inaction by
New London is entirely the opposite of
what happened. The fact that the town
acted quietly doesn't detract from the
fact that their reaction was immediate,
comprehensive and effective.
Once the initial allegations were made,
the Selectmen called on Merrimack County
Sheriff Scott Hilliard and his Chief Deputy
to undertake a complete review of the
New London Police Department to insure
these incidents could not occur in the
future. Under the able direction of Acting
Chief Ed Anderson, extensive audio and
video monitoring and recording systems
were installed throughout the station and
in the cruisers, ensuring that no detainee
or suspect would be unobserved with a
single officer. New policies were put in
place, and training upgraded, resulting in
a revitalized, professional law enforcement
agency. Rather than condemning their
actions, The Monitor and Valley News
should congratulate New London for its
swift and appropriate actions.
Brian Beihl - Antrim's Bully
Antrim resident Brian Beihl has
called for the resignations of Select Board
Chairman Gordon Webber and Town
Administrator Galen Stearns. Just what
grievous offense has the pair committed?
Did they misappropriate public funds? No.
Did they hire a relative for a town position?
No. Did they assault a town employee? No.
Their only transgression is that they dared
to render a personal opinion, an opinion
contrary to Beihl's
Beihl is upset that Webber and Stearns
appear in a video, paid for and produced
by Eolian Renewables LLC. which appears
on the Eolian Renewables website. While
acknowledging that Webber and Stearns
have a "right to be passionate about a cause",
in their capacity as private citizens, they
apparently lose that right as public officials.
It matters not to Beihl that the video
in question was made in 2012, prior to
Webber's election as Selectman or that
Webber has consistently held that position
for the last few years, even campaigning
for Selectman on that issue and being
overwhelmingly reelected.
Beihl concludes that "No public official,
however in favor of a project, should ever
appear to advocate for a private company."
Did it ever occur to Beihl that Webber and
Stearns are doing exactly what we expect
of public officials, advocating for the best
interest of Antrim? Leaders are supposed
to lead, not sit quietly as events pass us
by. While I personally believe these wind
projects are boondoggles, economically
viable only because of taxpayer subsidies, I
admire Webber and Stearns for having the
courage to speak their minds. It is also worth
noting that their position has been ratified at
the last few Antrim Town Meetings.
While Beihl's distorted views of
democracy and his bullying tactics are
deplorable, it is even more disturbing that
he is a Boy Scout leader and may pass that
attitude on to them.

Dear Editor:
I have worked with Alan Urquhart,
mostly the Hillsborough Economic
Development Commission, and he has been
a positive influence with great ideas. He
has shown leadership skills that are very
important for the position of selectmen and
also a compassion for the individuals in
our community. He has a vision of growth
for our town that is what Hillsborough
needs. This is some of the many reasons
why I am supporting Alan and I'm asking
for your vote for Alan Urquhart as a
Hillsborough Selectman.
Dennis Roberts, Jr. Hillsboro Ford
****************************************
To The Editor:
I have attended town meeting in Deering
for 42 years. In 2005, 2008 and 2009 we
were asked to VOTE on SB2 as our form of
town meeting. Again this year SB2 will be
brought by petition to the voters. A public
hearing was held for the SB2 petition on
February 19th unfortunately only 7 people
were present at the hearing. There were
none of the petitioners in attendance to
present the petition.
Town meeting for me has always been
a time for the community to get together,
discuss issues and vote on matters of debate,
the discussions and arguments on the floor
are always educational and entertaining.
Town meeting is the purest form of
democracy. Everybody has a voice - every
voice is heard and every voice counts. If
you don't like the terms of a warrant article,
you get to motion a change. If you don't
understand an issue, you get clarification
on the spot. With SB2 only a handful of
residents choose to attend the deliberative
session, where they decide what goes on
the ballot, then you wait three weeks to
vote. The rest of the voters merely go to the
polls cast a vote with misinformation or are
uneducated to the articles they are voting on.
For reference the HD deliberative session
had 144 people in attendance. There were 20
people from Deering in attendance and 3 of
them were ballot clerks. (approx combined
pop. 6800) Deering pays almost half of its
tax bill to the school.
How sad that we would choose to give
up our freedom for the conveniance of
casting a ballot, rather than hearing our
neighbors and voicing our own opinions.
Town meeting should be seen as the heart
of our town, that pumps blood to the vital
organizations and committees that keep
our town running. It is a time for people
to become involved on committees and to
introduce yourself to new neighbors.
I would strongly urge you to get out and
vote "NO" to SB2 !!! Lets keep our rural
character and our town meeting.
Lou Ellen Beard, Deering
****************************************
SB2 IS WRONG APPROACH
The petitioned Article #3, so called
SB2, will be voted on by printed ballot
during the day on March 11 from 7:00 A.M.
to 7:00 P.M. In the SB2 system of Town
Government there is a deliberative session
held 30 days before a vote by printed ballot
on all articles in the Town Warrant. That
is the only time the voters get to hear an
explanation of the proposed budget and all
Warrant Articles and the time that changes
may be made. The Annual Town Report will
NOT be ready so there is no chance to study
the expenditures as compared to the new
proposals before attending the Deliberative
Session.
One of the arguments in favor of SB2 is
that special interest groups (for instance,
Fire Dept.) pack Town Meeting when they
want a particular article to pass. Is that any
different than the 106 voters out of about
6,000 Hillsborough and Deering voters who
made a $1,000,000.00 cut in the school
budget in 2013 or the educators and friends
that packed the school Deliberative Session
in 2014 and defeated proposed changes with
over 100 voters?
The Hillsboro-Deering School District
has been operating under SB2 for many
years now but has it really reduced the
School expenditures? But more importantly,
it has not improved the educational quality
of our schools.(See local newspaper stories
in the Feb. 21 issues) If SB2 did not help
the school, why would anyone expect that
system to help the Town of Hillsborough?
For more than 200 years our present form
of Town Government (the Annual Town
Meeting) has been very successful.
Let’s keep what has worked very well
for so long a time. Vote NO on Article 3 on
the printed ballot and preserve the most
democratic form of government yet devised
in this nation.

Letters to the Editor
ional High School represent a new and
creative way to provide competitive
compensation and benefits to teachers and
staff. Health insurance is one of the biggest
and least controllable costs associated with
staffing a school. Traditionally, school
employment contracts included several
health insurance plan offerings, which
required a district to build a budget that
included the possibility that all employees
would choose the most expensive plan. This model did not allow the School Board
or employees to control health insurance
costs and effectively required the district to
absorb annual premium increases dictated
by the insurance carrier. As a result, every
year it was harder to pay competitive salaries
and wages without increasing property tax
rates to unsustainable levels. The proposed
contracts aim to break that cycle.
For the first time, the contracts provide
that a single high deductible health plan
will be offered to teachers and support
staff. The premium for this plan is lower
than next year’s anticipated cost of the most
expensive plan previously offered. This
will result in savings to the district and
teachers and staff. The annual deductible
is $5,000 for a family plan and $2,500
for a single plan. To insulate teachers and
staff from the impact of these annual costs,
the district has agreed to fund the annual
deductibles by making contributions to
every employee’s health savings account. Over the terms of the contracts, the cost of
paying the district’s share of the premiums
and funding the annual deductibles will be
less expensive than the old method of paying
for health insurance. The premiums will be
lower, and, because it is highly unlikely that
every employee will spend his or her entire
deductible every year, the district will not
have to fully fund the deductibles every year. The result will be a savings to the district
and greater control over dollars used to pay
salaries, wages, and benefits. These anticipated savings allowed the
School Board to include reasonable and
much deserved raises for teachers and
support staff in their respective contracts. They also made it possible to restructure the
way raises are distributed to compensate
teachers and staff for their professional
growth and retain experienced employees.
Under this new approach, teachers
will attain a professional level salary after
13 years of teaching experience. Less
experienced teachers earning salaries at
the lower end of the pay scale will receive
higher percentage increases each year than
more experienced teachers who are closer to
attaining a salary at the top of the pay scale. Teachers who are at the top of the salary
schedule will receive a $1,000 increase for
each year of the contract. The term of the
teacher’s contract is three years.
The term of the support staff contract
is two years. It includes a completely
retooled five-step pay scale that provides for
advancement every two years. In the second
year of the contract, employees on the salary
schedule will receive a 1.5% cost of living
adjustment and those already at the top of
the schedule will receive a 2.5% cost of living
adjustment. The contract also provides a
financial incentive for paraprofessional staff
to obtain the highest level of certification in
their field.
Both of these contracts are the product
of thoughtful and creative negotiations
that went on throughout the fall and early
winter. The School Board, the teachers,
and the support staff took up the challenges
of managing the costs of delivering a 21st
century education and providing competitive
salaries and benefits in a fiscally responsible
manner. Each of these contracts breaks new
ground to help meet those important goals. Their adoption by the voters on Voting Day,
March 11, will help ensure the continued
vitality of John Stark Regional High School.

Two New England sports icons host 'Calling All Sports' on the Pulse
A pair of New England sports icons have
reunited on WTPL, The Pulse 107.7 FM.
Bob Lobel and Upton Bell are co-hosting
"Calling All Sports" each Saturday from
10am-12 Noon. Few broadcasters have
the passion, knowledge and experience
of either man. To have them both on the
same show guarantees that the listener will
be both informed and entertained.
Lobel, the current co-host of Sports
Legends New England, is a former
sportscaster for WBZ-TV in Boston.
He anchored the sports segments on
evening newscasts and hosted the weekly
programs Sports Final and Patriots 5th
Quarter.
Check out BobLobel.com for Bob's
blog, photos and memories from Bob's
historic career. Bob spent three decades
anchoring sports at WBZ-TV (Ch. 4) but
confessed radio is “much more fun” than TV. Bell became co-host of WBZ's Calling All
Sports with newcomer Bob Lobel in 1978. His successful broadcast career includes
sports talk shows on WBZ, WEEI, WDLW,
WTAG, WHDH and WSBK-TV and
WNEV-TV. In the late eighties, Upton,
the son of former NFL Commissioner Bert
Bell, worked in professional football from
1961-1975. He started with Baltimore
Colts and eventually became General
Manager of the then Bay State Patriots. His
first duty was to rename the team, the New
England Patriots, to compass the entire
region. At 33 years old, Bell was the NFL's
youngest General Manager. You can read
more about Upton at uptonbell.com.

Hopkinton Board considering school consolidation
The Hopkinton School District is
refining a consolidation plan which would
educate its students in two buildings.
Currently students are assigned to three
buildings; the Middle/High School, Harold
Martin School and Maple Street School.
Under the proposal, students in grades
four and five would move from the Maple
Street School to Harold Martin, school,
with sixth grade students transferred to the
Middle/High School campus. The plan is
contingent on additions to Harold Martin
and the Middle/ High School being able
to accommodate the increased number of
students. .
At the March 8 School District Meeting,
the school budget will include $50,000
for architectural designs of the new
facilities.The final proposal is expected
to be presented to voters in 2017, with
construction to begin in 2018, the same
year when the 1999 Maple Street School
and the Middle/High School renovation
bond expires. If completed, the plan would
allow Maple Street School to be used for
other purposes.
Generator donated to Weare Fire Department
Fire Chief Vezina informed the Weare
Selectmen that Russ Fischer, of Fisher
Generator Service of Henniker, has five
generators that he would like to donate to
local fire departments. Chief Vezina feels
that the town should accept this generous
donation. The generator is large enough
that it could provide benefit during long
time outages for in-home oxygen use, plus
all the other things they provide emergency
power for. They do have some apparatus
mounted generators and a couple of
portables that are serviced annually and
this would be a great addition. The Chief
said that some of the generators they have
are mounted to apparatus, this one would
allow them to drop it at the scene and leave
it. The Board accepted the donation.
Henniker 6th graders in
Lena Merrick's class built

Henniker students learning about Japanese pottery
The 6th graders in Henniker have been
working with potter Shana Brautigam
of Rooted in Clay in Rindge, NH, as part
of the artist in residency program at the
school. This year’s area of study is Japan
and the students crafted handmade tea
bowls and caddies that were fired in a
traditional electric kiln.The students used
those tea bowls at the end of the week to
sample several teas including traditional
Japanese Green tea in a simulated tea
ceremony. While working with Ms.
Brautigam the students also learned about
Japanese raku pottery and the process of
firing outside to achieve the unique finish
of raku. The 6th graders made 9 large
group project vases that they fired outside
in the school courtyard.
The Artist in Residency program about
Japan will continue for the 6th grade the
week of March 17 as students work with
Burlington Taiko and Japanese cultural
artist Motoko. The public is invited to
a free performance with the artists and
students on Thursday, March 20 at 7 PM
in the HCS gym.
Greenfield voters asked to support 3rd full-time cop
Greenfield voters will decide whether
or not to fund a third full-time police
officer or a part-time one. A warrant
article requests $40,813 to support
the Police Department's request for a
third full-tiine officer. Should it fail, an
additional $12,500 would be added to the
part-time wage line in the police budget.
