Students enjoyed a fact filled tour of the State House and were introduced to State Representatives who shared information about their jobs. When they returned to their classrooms, Mrs. Morono's students broke up into different sections and tried to pass a bill. First the student State Representatives came up with the idea to create bike lanes on all NH streets, but the student Senators turned it down saying it was too expensive. Then the student Representatives tried another bill—no candy at school. The student Senators talked at great length and decided to pass it on to the student Executive Council and student Governor. In the end, the student Governor (Nathan Nelson) vetoed the no candy bill, saying, "Kids have to have candy!" “Field trips like these make social studies text book readings come to life,” said 4th grade teacher Caroline Morono. “Visiting the State House helps our 9 and 10 year old 4th graders better understand the meaning of state government. Some students leave the trip thinking that they might like to be a State Representative, Senator, or Governor some day,” concluded Morono. Business Admin. hired The SAU#43 School Bar has authorized Superintendent Cindy Gallagher to hire Terry Wiggin of Ashland for the business administrator’s position. Wiggin met with board members prior to the vote in a non-public meeting taking questions and answering concerns.She will replace outgoing business administrator Bonnie Sandstrom who will leave at the end of June.

Young New Boston Center New Boston, NH 03070 SINCE 1995 603-487-2239 Towle students break Pasta Walk record Records are made to be broken, and that held true for fifth and sixth grade students at Newport's Towle Elementary School who recently contributed 507 boxes of pasta to the Newport Food Pantry, breaking the former record of 469 boxes. They walked from the school to the Food Pantry to deliver their goods.Leading the group was a pair of sixth graders, James Carnevale and Ben Spivey, who won the honor by answering the most questions correctly in the Rich Chappell Memorial Pasta Parade Trivia. As a reward, they were the parade grand marshals and both got to wear a pasta hat along the parade route that passed through the downtown area. Before his passing, Chappell, director of the Food Pantry, said the highest need for a food item in the summer months is dry pasta. This was the third year for the pasta walk. Antrim accident by driver's inattention HARDWARE Mon-Sat 8-5 • Sun 9-3 The Weare Food Pantry was successfully moved to its new location at 613 South Stark Highway, on Saturday. Moldy test results canceled the original plan to move into the basement of the Holy Cross Episcopal Church. The pantry now occupies the former Classic Armorer store and now has space for both the pantry and a thrift store, whose proceeds could subsidize the pantry. The Pantry is now open for business and is actively seeking donations of both food and marketable items for the Thrift store. The Weare Selectmen have authorized some start-up funds, and the Goffstown Rotary Club made a generous $200 donation from its recent car show, but your contributions are needed now. Antrim Police believe driver inattention was the cause of an accident. According to reports, Megan Lafleur, 25, of Antrim, was driving southbound on Concord Street on the morning of June 10 when her 2006 Pontiac drifted across the center line, coliding with a cement truck owned by Central Concrete of Henniker and driven by Robert Junkins, 52, of Deering. Junkins swerved to avoid a head-on collision. The car then went back across the southbound lane, off the road, and landed in a ditch. Lafleur was then taken by ambulance to Monadnock Community Hospital, where she was treated and released that day. Junkins was uninjured. Police do not believe alcohol, speed or weather to be a factor, and no citations have yet been issued, but investigation is ongoing. www.granitequill.com | june 26, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 7 Sean Kelly sworn in as Weare's new Police Chief as new era begins Flanked by members of the police department, Keith Lacasse, Chairman of the Weare Selectmen, swore in Sean Kelly as the town's new Police Chief, beginning a new, and hopefully more positive era for the Department. Saturday afternoon's ceremony included town officials, family, friends residents and law enforcement personnel from several departments. Kelly's wife, Barbara, pinned the gold chief’s badge on his jacket before he addressed the assembled. “Ethics and morality is not a job, it is a lifestyle,” Kelly said.“I know in my heart and soul that I owe a great debt of gratitude to the people in this room and the many more that have touched my life in preparation for today.” After thanking his parents for teaching him right from wrong, and his children, for putting up with a dad who missed a lot of their activities, he praised his wife, Barbara, "the absolute love of my life. I can’t possibly pay her back or thank her enough for everything she has done over the years to bring me to this moment.” Concluding the ceremony Kelly cut a cake shaped like an officer’s hat with a replica of the chief’s badge. VFW restoration put on hold The Town of Bennington has delayed a proposed $300,000 renovation of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Hall in order to pursue an LCHIP grant for the project. The grant would cover up to half of the cost, with the town contributing 25% in funds, and the rest in in-kind volunteer work. Peter Martell, of the Energy Committee asked the town to delay foundation work until the LCHIP grant had been submitted and the property reviewed by LCHIP supervisors, as starting work before that could affect the town’s chance for being awarded the grant, he said. Sean Kelly cuts the ceremonial cake concluding his induction as Weare's new Police Chief.

Damages is estimated at over $100,000. The Fire Department received a 911 call from a neighbor saying there was black smoke coming from the house. The tenants, Michael Briscoe, his two young daughters, Sierra and Sarah, and his girlfriend, Amy Whitney, were not home at the time. According to Fire Chief Richard O’Brien, the fire started on the first floor in the living room on their side of the duplex and spread rapidly to the second floor and into the attic and into the other unit, which was unoccupied. Firefighters from Bedford, New Boston, Weare, Dunbarton, Hooksett and Manchester assisted at the scene. Michael Briscoe and his daughters had lived at the duplex for two years. His girlfriend had just moved to the house from Newmarket the week before, and her two children were supposed to move there soon.

Mariposa Museum "YES Competition" ConVal students Tierney Thompson, Emma Johnson, and Courtney Jones delivered the winning presentation at the Third Annual Mariposa Museum and ConVal High School YES Competition on May 28th. The team won a $3,000 grant from the Mariposa for the non-profit organization they represented, Autism Speaks. The YES program, an acronym for Youth Empowered through Service, is supported by the Mariposa Museum, board member James Kelly, and C&S Wholesale Grocers of Keene in a unique collaboration with ConVal under the direction of Social Studies Department Chair Nancy Gagnon. Other student teams reaching the final round at the Mariposa in May included: Douglas White and Thayer Taft, representing The Birchtree Center in Newington, N.H., Joshua Bartsch and Brett Kasim representing The Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter, and Isobel Sylvian and Reilly McCarty representing EduGo.

Also from The Granite Quill: IN New Hampshire Your Guide to What’s Happening in the Granite State Senior Lifestyles A Guide for New Hampshire’s Active Seniors Publisher’s Perspective by Leigh Bosse Guinta Must Go Messenger readers know that I am a proud member of the Republican Party. I strongly support its core principals of limited government, personal liberty and individual responsibility, and I will not sit by and see those principals tarnished by anyone of any party. Congressman Frank Guinta has admitted to violating campaign finance laws by diverting over $300,000 of his parents' money into his election campaign account in 2010, and has been lying about it for five years before the proof came out. For this transgression, he should im- mediately resign. This is not a matter of a politician voting incorrectly on a piece of legislation. It is not a matter of being too liberal or too conservative. Frank Guinta is a crook and no measure of personal or party loyalty can be allowed to trump the principal of public accountability. By his actions, Guinta has shattered the public trust and will never be reelected. He will be defeated, hopefully in a Republican primary, if we are to retain the seat. He needs to resign now, so that a special election can be held this fall. Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: On Saturday, May 23, 2015 my daughter’s ex-boyfriend thought it would be a great idea to drop off my grandson and daughter’s belongings at the top of our driveway when we weren’t home. Apparently people that drive by my house on a regular basis felt it was a free for all and they were entitled to stop and take whatever was there for themselves. These items WERE NOT FREE for the taking! These items belonged to my grandson and daughter. How could anyone of you think these items were being tossed away like garbage? Toys, laptops, cameras, clothes, etc. Shame on all of you for being so greedy. You did not hit the lottery that day. You became a criminal. Do the right thing and bring back what you stole. Lisa Demers, Windsor **************************************** Dear Drivers, My most valued possession is inside the trailer behind my truck. He stepped into that rolling steel box because I asked him to, and he trusts me. He's a living, breathing creature, and all 1,200 lbs of him are precariously balanced on four small hoofs as my truck and trailer wind down the road. My horse is not a boat or camp trailer, and I cannot stop quickly or turn sharply without risking his safety and even his life. Know that I will do just about anything to avoid hitting the brakes with a horse in my trailer. When I make those wide turns, I need them to prevent my horse from scrambling. Please give me room and time to turn. And that large distance between me and the car in front of me? It might look like enough room to fit three tractor trailers, but it’s actually the distance I need to stop softly and safely without my horse falling. Those times when we’re headed up a hill, my speed is as fast as I can go. My foot has the accelerator pressed to the floor, and no matter how hard you try, your Honda can’t push us up this hill. I promise I’ll move to the right lane when it becomes available or pull over if I find a safe spot on the shoulder, but until then I ask for your patience and some space. Lastly, my set up weighs 3 tons, and that much weight prevents me from swerving. When you pass me going 80mph uphill on a blind corner, you don’t just put my horse at risk: Your risky driving threatens the lives of the oncoming driver, my passenger, me, you, and everyone in the cars behind us. So next time you see a horse trailer, assume a loved animal is in there. Please give some space, and offer some patience. By driving safely, we’ll all get where we’re going. Thank you, Ann Poole, Hillsborough **************************************** www.granitequill.com | june 26, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 13 Seconday School Of Excellence As reported earlier in The Messenger, New Hampshire Excellence in Education Awards (EDies) has selected Bow High School as the 2015 recipient of the NH Secondary School of Excellence Award. Relevance and engagement, rigor and high standards, personalization of the learning environment, whole community involvement and empowered educators ... these educational indicators — when done well — can turn a pretty good school into a GREAT one. The EDies Board believes strongly that this is exactly the case at Bow High School. Superintendent of the Year The New Hampshire School Administrators Association has selected Jerome Frew as the New Hampshire Superintendent of the Year. Frew is the outgoing superintendent of the Kearsarge Regional School District that represents the towns of Bradford, Newbury, New London, Springfield, Sutton, Warner and Wilmot. His distinguished career encompasses many statewide positions, including the presidencies of NHSAA and the New Hampshire Association of School Principals. He has also been the recipient of the Distinguished Service Award and the James Desmarais Outstanding Service Award presented by the NHASP. Mark Joyce, executive director of the NHSAA, noted, “Jerry is a wonderful example of an outstanding educational leader and embodies our motto of being a ‘Champion for Children.’” School Nurse of the Year The New Hampshire School Nurses’ Association has selected Pamela Murphy, R.N., as the 2015 School Nurse of the Year. Murphy has demonstrated outstanding abilities in her specialized role of school nursing for 18 years. She is the much-loved school nurse of Peterborough Elementary School, bringing much to the role with her nursing ability and knowledge, but also her deep and personal care for all those around her. Her accomplishments are many, including introducing “Monadnock Healthy Teeth” into the school district, serving her community with her involvement in such programs as Operation Santa, as well as her involvement in the development of the now well-established School Kids in Peterborough (SKIP) program, which is a before- and after school program providing needed supervision and nutrition for students in the area. Christa McAuliffe Sabbatical Award The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation has chosen Heidi Pauer to receive this year’s Christa McAuliffe Sabbatical Award. Pauer has taught in the Bow School District since 1997 and is currently teaching English/ Humanities at Bow High School. During her sabbatical, Pauer will be a creativity coach traveling to multiple schools in New Hampshire presenting workshops, providing one-onone coaching and alternative assessments for high school teachers of all subjects. Her plan is to reach more than 14 different schools and impact hundreds of students in each subject area. Her enthusiasm is contagious but does not begin to describe the energy she brings to her classroom, and now she will be able to share her unique approach to better teaching and learning across the state. Her belief in Christa McAuliffe’s “Reach for the Stars” mantra will serve her well in expanding her own successes to others. Alexander J. Blastos Distinguished Service Award The New Hampshire Association of School Business Officials has chosen to recognize Michael Trojano upon his retirement for his many years of service as a successful business administrator in Henniker, Milford and Sunapee school districts. Since the beginning of his career, Trojano has been an active member of the N.H. Association of School Business Officials, serving on the executive board and on a variety of committees in the organization. He also served on the New Hampshire School Health Care Coalition for 10 years prior to his retirement. He is well deserving of the Alexander J. Blastos Distinguished Service Award. Susan Janosz Technology Impact Award The New Hampshire Society of Technology in Education has selected William Carozza as the recipient of its Susan Janosz Technology Impact Award for 2015. Carozza was a classroom teacher at the elementary and secondary levels for 13 years before becoming an elementary school principal 17 years ago. Since 2000, he has been the principal of the Harold Martin School in Hopkinton. He also has served as an adjunct faculty member of the University of New Hampshire and New England College. Carozza is past president of the New Hampshire Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development, and during his term, the organization won the 2013 ASCD Affiliate Excellence Award. He has also served as president of the N.H. Council for Social Studies and was recently appointed to serve on the U.S. Department of Education’s NAEP Principals’ Panel. Carozza has conducted many workshops at regional and national conferences on integrating music within the curriculum.

At Monday's meeting, the council made two amendments clarifying that a resident district must accept responsibility for any payment for a student before enrollment at a Franklin school and that no students in Franklin will be allowed to attend open enrollment. The first adjustment, which provides financial security to the district, was met with no opposition. But the second adjustment drew an objection from Councilor Scott Clarenbach. “I have a difficult time believing that we’re making an unlevel playing field here, and we’re saying that we’ll take any students who want to come but we will not allow our students choice,” he said. “We’re the first ones. We’re setting an example by saying, ‘We want your students, we don’t want any of our students to leave.’ ” Franklin Mayor Ken Merrifield de- fended the change, stating that it is a way of protecting its school district. Newport Chamber officers; Director Mike Smith, VP Jan McMahon and Director and Past President Steve Smith manned the beer tent during the 2nd Annual Brewfest, as part of the Annual Chamber Day on the Common last Saturday.

Recently the Planning Board's Capital Improvements Plan subcommittee sent a memo to the selectmen unanimously urging the Board to take steps to reacquire the facility. In part, the memo reads, "Based on the comprehensive tours of town facilities and identifying the critical needs for both municipal and community users and combined with a lack of other available and cost effective sites, the subcommittee recommends to the New London Board of Selectmen that they enter into negotiations immediately to reacquire the 1941 building and site." The memo continues, "Future development and growth including what to do with the police department and recreation department and whether or not the building would be torn down or renovated could be decided after the site was acquired. The memo cites the fact that when other school buildings are no longer used they are reverted to the towns they are located in for $1, but beginning the nego- tiations is the first step. It is estimated that it would cost $250,000 to tear the building down and several million to renovate it. New London's 1941 school building.

The town-wide prayer vigil was held at Butler Park in the center of town at 2 p.m. Sunday. Community members gathered and prayed for the nine people that were shot and killed during a bible study at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church. Dylann Roof is charged with nine counts of murder in the death of the parishioners. Parishioners from several local churches joined the vigil, including Smith Memorial Congregational Church, Hillsborough United Methodist Church, Washington Congregational Church and the Deering Congregational Church. On the same day in Charleston, Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church held its first Sunday service since a gunman shot and killed eight parishioners and church’s head pastor Rev. Clementa Pinckney. The interim pastor for the historic black church says funeral services for most of the victims will be held later this week. The Rev. Norvel Goff also confirmed that funeral services for Pinckney will be held Friday.
