VOLUME 13, ISSUE 40 PO Box 75, North Waterboro, ME 04061 • 247-1033 • news@waterbororeporter.com FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2015 FREE www.waterbororeporter.com LOCALLY OWNED & OPERATED New service for local children with autism By Brigit McCallum brigit@waterbororeporter.com Six-year Lake Arrowhead Community resident Tim Folley has started a new local practice to serve children with autism, their parents, caregivers and teachers. His new practice, called Social Significance, is an agency that helps caregivers make successful choices in helping children with autism succeed in school, and in the environments of their lives. One of only 130 board Certified Behavioral Analysts in Maine, Folley’s initial plan is to begin working with caregivers in their own environments, eventually to move into a business space in Waterboro, and down the road, to create a center for working with autistic children and those who care for them. A veteran of working with people with behavioral issues, in schools, psychiatric hospitals, residential schools, in-home and in community agencies, Folley says he wanted to be a teacher, but felt he could have a better effect working with the psychological dimension of what people struggle with. “I bring all that experience to a small geographical area and I think this is something I can offer to local families and schools.” said Folley. Most recently on the staff of Community Partners of Biddeford, working with adults with developmental disabilities, Folley describes the professional practice of behavior analysis as ranging from treatment of individuals with autism and developmental disabilities, to behavioral coaching and behavioral psychotherapy. Most of his experience is working with children, and at this time, because state laws have changed to require insurers to provide families with individuals with autism increased benefits, he felt it was a perfect time to move in a direction he’d been hoping to move in. Until recently, what benefits were provided to insured families, only covered children up to the age of ten. The new insurance regulations require coverage of up to $36,000 a year from birth to age 21. And, as a state that ranks high in autism rates, more services will be needed as insurance coverage increases. Folley is signing up with insurance providers to become a member of their networks, has formed an LLC, hired an accountant and a medical billing specialist versed in autism claims and is getting policies in place. As all of this is progressing, Folley has also been hired part-time as a consultant to the Fryeburg and Conway, New Hampshire school systems, which is making it possible for him to transition into full-time work with autism. Folley holds a Master’s Degree in Educational Psychology from USM and is applying as a remote student to Southern Illinois University’s doctoral program in Applied Behavior Analysis. He will be teaching a 40-hour Registered Behavior Technician course for high school graduates through Massabesic Adult and Community Education starting in January.

Massabesic High School science teacher Kerra Gearinger recently received a Sponsor Recognition Award of $750 in the Ocean Awareness Student Contest. Over 20 of Gearinger’s students submitted to the contest, which challenges students to combine art, science, and environmental advocacy to give our oceans a voice. “The ocean has fascinated me since I was a child. Therefore, it has been a privilege for me to share that passion with my students. My oceanography class displayed a true sense of dedication and work ethic to allow their artwork to Kerra Gearinger, MHS science teacher COURTESY PHOTO come to life for a great cause. We were able to discuss, research, and eventually create wonderful pieces of art highlighting the impact humans so greatly have on our oceans,” said Gearinger. This year, the contest prompted students to consider “Our Oceans, Our Plastic” to direct attention to the growing international problem of ocean plastic pollution. While the contest has run for the last four years – focusing on issues such as right whale conservation and sea bird restoration – this is the first year that the contest has been open to middle school students. Bow Seat Ocean Awareness Programs, the international ocean conservation non-profit that hosts the contest each year, plans to give out over $50,000 to the winners of the middle and high school divisions of the contest. Submissions ranged from essays and stories exploring the cause of plastic pollution, to (Continued on page 4) Open for business Tim Folley, of North Waterboro, has started a local agency, called Social Significance, to help people with autism.

Waterboro Selectwoman TammyJo Girard knows firsthand about the experience of domestic abuse from her work with the Saco Police Department, and during October, wears a purple scarf and speaks out to make others aware. Caring Unlimited in Sanford is York County’s Domestic Abuse center for providing care to women and men experiencing abuse. Domestic abuse and violence are the most common causes of injury to women in our society-exceeding the number of injuries from auto accidents, muggings and rapes combined. According to Caring Unlimited, in Maine, where domestic violence is the leading cause of homicide, more than 20 percent of all reported domestic assaults happen in York County. REPORTER WATERBORO At the recent 12-Town Group meeting at Waterboro Town Hall, Girard read Caring Unlimited’s statistics for the town of Waterboro thus far this year. The town provided 476 hours of service to 44 clients from Waterboro in 292 different activity sessions. These services include legal, group, safety planning, shelter and transitional services, according to Girard. She also shared the results of a study released by the Violence Policy Center to draw attention to the toll of domestic violence, which says that Maine’s rate of 1.47 women killed for every 100,000 women living in the state is higher than all but eight other states. The jump to the ninth position in the study was a sharp rise from Maine’s rank of 22nd in a similar study in 2012 and 23rd in 2011. Caring Unlimited is a member organization of the Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence. It has a 24-hour hotline that can be reached at 1-800-239-7298 or for other matters, contact Sherry Edwards, community response coordinator, at 490-3227, ext. 105. Activity at Carle’s Corner Ice Rink Activity has started up again at the skating rink site at Carle’s Corner/the Taylor House Museum property. Sandi Binette says, “The season is coming fast and we’re gearing up for a great season of skating. We’ll be on site laying our water lines so that the ice can be maintained on site. This entire project is local business and community sponsored. The warming hut, that is also a replica of Leavitt’s Store, was recently painted by Gary Richards with paint donated by Plummer’s Ace Hardware. Next, folks will be digging for water and electricity. Those interested in helping out can like the Carle’s Corner Ice Rink page on Facebook and keep a look out for helping days. There will be upcoming projects and rink set up in the next two months and volunteers are always welcome. Library news Starting in November, craft nights will be held the second Monday of the month from 6 to 8 p.m. Patrons and all other interested folks are free to drop in and join in. The November activities will feature cards for Thanksgiving and paper crafts also. All ages including adults are welcome. The downstairs meeting room is getting a complete makeover, and will hopefully be ready for use by December or January. The air quality is now fine. An inside wall has been taken down to make the room larger, a new sink and cabinet are being installed, as well as a drop ceiling with new lighting. The old rug is being taken out and new flooring will be laid. It will become a usable space once again, which staff and patrons alike are all looking forward to. For close to a year, story time has been crowded upstairs, and the popular craft programs have interfered with patrons’ use of the tables and reading room. A number of scout and other community groups will soon have a place to meet again.

The artists and their work will be featured in real-world exhibition and distribution projects that will be coordinated with Bow Seat’s international partners over the coming year. Each project will aim to spread awareness of plastic pollution and ocean conservation to the public by engaging the public with the teen’s art, poetry, writing, and films. “Jacques Cousteau said that people protect what they love,” says contest founder Linda Cabot. “While science and technology are critical to understanding our planet and deciding what to do next, alone they aren’t enough to inspire long-term cultural shifts. Humans aren’t purely rational creatures. That’s why we need to convey creative narratives like stories, poetry, film, and visual art – they engage our emotions and our heart. We need to use our heads and our hearts so that we can protect this planet that we love,” said Cabot. The high school winners of the contest can be viewed online, and the 2016 Contest will open in November and run until next June.

This year, the team has played a split varsity/junior varsity schedule, compiling a respectable 6-3 record. On Saturday, Oct. 10 the Mustangs hosted Gardiner who brought both their varsity and junior varsity squads to Massabesic middle school. In the junior varsity portion it was all lady Mustangs as they took all three contests despite fall- ing behind 10-6 in the opener. In that game, Massabesic rallied for a 25-16 win. In game two, the Mustangs built a 16-7 lead behind the strength of superb serving from both captains, Sydney Pepin and Haleigh Couture. They closed out game two with a 25-11 win and they built a 16-4 lead in game three, on their way to a 25-7 rout, again with spot-on serving by the senior pair of Pepin and Couture. Gardiner took the varsity portion of the match-up 2-1. They pounded the Mustangs in the opener 25-6, running out to a 10-1 early lead, but Massabesic, again behind the service of Pepin, jumped out to a 6-0 lead in the middle game. Gardiner came back, tying the score at 8-8 and the contest see- sawed back and forth the rest of the way until Brandt asked for a timeout with the Mustangs trailing 22-19. The lady Mustangs came up big coming out of the timeout, and pulled even at 24, but the next two points went to Gardiner and the Mustangs fell 26-24. Game three was another seesaw affair early as Pepin and Couture again lead the Mustangs out to an early lead. Gardiner again turned the tide and they lead 10-7 when Brandt asked for another timeout. Once more the message must have been sent as Massabesic settled down and ripped off 10 of the next 12 points to pull ahead 17-12. They cruised the rest of the way to a 25-15 win.

CROSS COUNTRY Girls tops; boys second at home meet Wisina, Cloutier take silvers By Michael DeAngelis Emma Rutledge had a hat-trick and Logan Champlin and Sophia LaFrance each had a pair of scores to pace Massabesic to an easy 8-3 win over host Windham in varsity field hockey on Saturday, Oct. 10. The Mustangs (10-3) carried the play for much of the contest, pouring 36 shots on goal in the process, and leaping out to a 4-0 lead at halftime behind scores from Champlin, a pair from Rutledge, and what turned out to be the game-winner from Abby Staples with just under 11 minutes left before the break. Sophia LaFrance got the Mustangs on the board at 17:39 of the second half, lifting them to a 5-0 lead, but Windham got on the board three minutes later. LaFrance got her second to make it 6-1 and Rutledge finished out the hat-trick at 14:21. Windham got the next two scores, but Champlin and LaFrance, who had hooked up to start the scoring, closed it in the exact same fashion with the latter assisting the former. Friday, October 16, 2015 PAGE 7 PHOTOS BY MARY/MEME Boy Scout Troop 320 The lady Mustangs were first with 21 points (2,3,4,5,7), placing seven runners in the top 10, as Gorham (55) and Thornton Academy (60) battled for the runner-up spot in a cross country meet held in Alfred on Friday, Oct. 9. Gorhams Anna Slager took the gold with a time of 19:54, but the next four to cross the finish line on the Mustangs’ home turf were all from Massabesic. Emily Wasina was second with a 20: 59, Kylie Johnson (21:24) was next, Roshelle Morrison (21:32) fourth and Maquila DiMastrantonio (21:39) fifth in what turned out to be a big pack battling hard for spots two through ten. Proof of that was witnessed by Mustangs Emily Cyr (ninth) and Hallie Benton (10th in 22:34) who weren’t far behind Johnson’s third place time, and adding a nice piece of team depth. Gorham finished first with 35 points, edging the Mustangs who were next with 47 (2,5,9,15,16) and well ahead of Cheverus’ 72 and Thornton Academy’s 83 in boys’ cross country. Josh Veroneau was first in 17:47, Mustang Troy Cloutier was second with an 18:05, Isaac Libby was fifth and Adam Cloutier was ninth. Both Massabesic teams will head to the western class A regional meet will on Saturday, Oct. 24 in Cumberland. The lady Mustangs won the event last year and they were runner-up to the Scots the year prior.

This funding is provided through the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), a partnership program that provides matching funds to states and local communities for conservation of parks and open space “The LWCF is America’s most successful conservation and outdoor recreation program. The LWCF has been instrumental in establishing and maintaining outdoor recreation space in Maine and across our nation. These important investments will help protect and preserve a number of Maine’s parks and recreation facilities that are vital not only to our communities, but to our way of life,” said Senators Collins and King. The LWCF is a partnership program that provides matching funds to states and local commu- Waterboro sidewalk project meeting nities for acquisition, development, and conservation of parks and open spaces. Despite strong support bipartisan support for the LWCF, on Sept. 30, the authority to collect revenue into the LWCF Fund expired. “While the program will continue to be funded under the shortterm funding agreement beyond the Sept. 30 expiration date, we must act quickly to make certain this critical program is properly supported,” Senators Collins and King continued. “We have long advocated for a permanent reauthorization of the LWCF to ensure that this important connection to our nation’s conservation effort in Maine and across our country is not lost. We will continue to work with our colleagues on both sides of the isle to permanently extend our nation’s premier federal conservation program.” Senator Collins and Senator King are both cosponsors of bipartisan legislation that would permanently reauthorize LWCF, S. 338. In September, a bipartisan coalition of 53 senators led by Senators Collins, Patrick Leahy (DVt.), Richard Burr (R-N.C.), and Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), and joined by Senator King, authored a letter calling on Senate leadership to permanently reauthorize and adequately fund the nation’s premier federal conservation program, now in its 50th year. In June, Senators Collins and Steve Daines (R-MT) offered an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2016 Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill which was approved by the Senate Appropriations Committee and passed as part of the reported bill. The amendment adds another $13.9 million for the LWCF Program, bringing it in line with the current funding level. In a Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee hearing earlier this year, Senator King called on Congress to permanentREPORTER www.keep ly reauthorize and fully fund the program, and in July, he voted in support of a bill that would also RIEFS reauthorize the program.

Guns are traceable all the way back to the manufacturer just like cars. The operator of a motor vehicle cannot obtain a license without training and passing a test. Many major cities require a battery of psychological tests to determine eligibility in law enforcement. Purchasing guns should not be an easy task. He who owns the gun should bear responsibility for the weapon. This should be as simple as acquiring a driver’s license, and failure to act responsibly should carry a cost. As of Oct. 6, there have been 298 mass murders in the US this year. Nearly 10,000 people have died from guns. Isn’t it time we enact Federal Regulation without disarming America?

Held at Sable Oaks Golf Course, the event raised more than $20,000 for the children’s hospital. “The Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital is truly honored to have the support of our local Ace Hardware locations,” said Kate Richardson, BBCH Development Manager. “BBCH cares for more than 50,000 children each year from every corner of the state. By choosing to support the children’s hospital in such a generous way, these Ace stores are undoubtedly supporting children in their very own communities and families who are customers in their stores.” Each year, through a national partnership with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, Ace locations are encouraged to raise funds for local children’s hospitals through a variety of campaigns including five-gallon bucket sales and candy bar sales. This year the Southern Maine Ace Dealer’s Group, 16 locally-owned Ace locations, chose to go the extra mile TO ADVERTISE, CALL: 247-1033 or email news@waterboro reporter.com and planned the golf outing to raise additional funds for BBCH. “After my granddaughter, Teagan Grace, was born three months premature at 1 lb. 7 oz., I spent a lot of mornings, lunch times and evenings visiting the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at The Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital,” said Tom Skelton, President of Maine Hardware in Portland. “The staff and doctors were the most wonderful caregivers I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know. At a Maine Ace Hardware Dealers meeting I brought up how I thought we could organize a golf tournament to raise more significant funds than the standard bucket sales and candy bar programs at our stores had driven. I was proud of the efforts and hard work that we all put in, and absolutely thrilled with the outcome, especially considering it was our first year. ” All funds will be used to advance the care provided at BBCH. From well-child visits to specialized medical and surgical treatment of complex, life-threatening illnesses and injuries, The Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital offers comprehensive, family-centered care from an exceptional team of doctors, nurses and other medical professionals. Participating local locations included Plummer’s Ace Hardware stores in Buxton, Limerick and Waterboro.
