With over 30 years of experience in the
automotive industry, Windham Mobil owner
and operator Doug Desautels has recently taken
measures to assure that his customers continue
receiving the best service at the best price. About
two months ago, Desautels opened up a second
location at 54 Haverhill Road in Windham; with
easy access approximately 100 yards past Ledge
Road, heading east on Route 111.
With two large bays that span the depth of the
spacious facility, Windham Mobil employs ve
Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) technicians;
each with a minimum of 10 years experience.
Were here to provide a good service for the
customer; customer satisfaction on every vehicle,
conveyed Desautels who opened his rst auto
repair business in October of 1995.
In addition to offering same-day service on
95 percent of the cars serviced at his Mobil
Professional Auto Repairs service center,
Desautels takes an aggressive stance on pricing,
saying that they will match competitors
pricing, and then taking it one step further
with a compelling offer: Well beat any
price. And while you are waiting for your
vehicle to be serviced, Windham Mobil offers a
relaxing waiting room with snacks and drinks.
However, if you cant sit and wait, no problem,
as they offer a shuttle van service to drive you
home.
Windham Mobil Expands to Meet Customer Needs
Windham Mobils newest location is at 54 Haverhill Rd in Windham(just past Ledge Rd. on the left side heading east on Rte 111).
Windham Mobil offers a full line of services, including timing
belts, AC, alignments, brakes, scheduled maintenance, radiator
ush, tune-ups and a host more. In addition, Desautels invites you
in for a free code scan to help address that dreaded check engine
notication as well as to check out his really good tire prices.
Adding to the customer-oriented approach, the original business
which is located at 18 Mammoth Road, is still going strong and now
operates as a quick lube. No appointment needed, just drive it
up and geter done, offered Desautels.
For more information on services and pricing, check the website

2410 or the Haverhill Road shop at 818-8430.

Windham Cable TV Chairman Margaret Case says
she is a very patient person, but, that being said, she
has reached her limit with the lackadaisical manner
in which school administrators have been dealing
with Windham High Schools cable access Channel
170. Case has been the chairman of the Windham
Cable Board for the past 25 years.
Not mincing her words, Case took school
administrators to task during the Windham School
Boards rst meeting of the new school year, held
July 1. Obstacles have been put in front of us
from day one, Case said, despite cable committee
members having spent $75,000 on equipment
for the TV studio at the ve-year-old high school.
Twenty-ve thousand dollars was spent on lighting
for the high school studio, alone, Case noted. And
what has resulted from the investment? Nothing,
Case said. As of the beginning of July, there were
only two slides appearing on Channel 170. The rst
tells viewers to have a nice summer. The second
congratulates the Class of 2014.

Summer strawberries always bring out strawberry festivals
and one of the best is held right in Pelham. Entertainment,
rafe baskets, a craft fair and great food with good
conversation was rolled into one happy day on the grounds
of Pelhams Senior Center on June 28.
This event raises money for the Pelham Council on
Aging, which, in turn, offsets the cost of the annual senior
Christmas party at Harris Inn.
Sara Landry, director of the Pelham Senior Center, and
her smile were everywhere throughout the gorgeous
day. Hot dogs were on the grill under the tent; the
table with strawberry shortcake with whipped cream
had a long line of customers.
Doug Thompson kicked off the entertainment with
his mellow guitar and musical presentation. Following
him was a magician who captured the audiences
attention. BJ Hickman drew audience members,
young and old, into his magic show. For the last hour
of the festival, the Granite Statesmen, who belong to
the award-winning Nashua Chapter of the Barbershop
Harmony Society, sang for the audience.

Sunny Day of Fun to Pelham Senior Center

The night sky was alive with the color of reworks over Windham
High School on Saturday, June 28. It may have been early, but
Windhams town-wide Fourth of July celebration drew a crowd of
about 1,500 residents sitting out in lawn chairs and blankets on the
front lawn of Windham High School. The evening was sponsored
by the Windham Recreation Department and ConvenientMD Urgent
Care in Windham.
Its been a good turnout with beautiful weather, said Windham
Recreation Director Cheryl Haas.
The reworks started at 9:20, but residents began gathering on
Windham Fireworks Enjoyed by All
the lawn of the high school earlier to listen to the rock and roll cover band,
the B Street Bombers. The group is based out of Massachusetts and has played
throughout New England. The long time cover band played songs from the 60s
such as Neil Diamonds Sweet Caroline.
Terryn Brunelle, 14, Molly Peters, 9, Zack Peters, 6 and Elizabeth Cote, 15,
made hand-knitted necklaces when they werent painting faces at the Strawberry Festival.
Anne Davis happily displays her caricature

languages by providing formal instruction and informal language
practice in an immersion environment. The goals of the NSLI-Y

MOMS Club
The MOMS
Club of
Windham
recently met at
the town beach
to start their new
scal year. A
big thank you
was extended
to the outgoing
executive board
as they passed
their materials to
the newly elected
ofcers. The MOMS Club is a local chapter of an international group
and MOMS is an acronym for the slogan Moms Offering Moms
Support. While the moms met, their children played together on the
beach and in the water.
The local chapter was organized over eight years ago and currently
has 63 members. We have a wonderful group of moms who
share the same purpose and principles of the MOMS Club, one of
which is to engage in activities to enrich the lives of children in the
community, said Suzan Messina, incoming president. Another is
to undertake and complete at least one charitable, humanitarian or
social welfare project related to children each year. This year we got
together as a group and sliced strawberries for the annual Strawberry
Festival to benet the Nesmith Library.
The MOMS club is open for new members. Suzan Messina
explained that the group is particularly helpful to new moms and
move-in moms. The group has a meal train that organizes several
days of delivered family dinners to a new mom. A series of monthly
activities includes a business meeting, a morning or afternoon
seasonal or holiday themed brunch or dinner potluck, and a MOMS
night out which recently has included trivia night, manicures and
pedicures, and paddle boarding on Cobbetts Pond. Other than the
MOMS night
out, all other
activities take
place during
daylight hours
and children are
welcome.
A monthly
newsletter is
electronically
sent to all
members
which includes
a calendar of
free events in
Windham and
surrounding
towns. Activities are planned each month exclusively for the MOMS
club which have recently included farm tours, apple, pumpkin, and
strawberry picking and morning and afternoon playgroups. Other
seasonal eld trips over the past year included learning the process of
making maple sugar in the spring, milking cows, and nding their way
through a 12-acre corn maze in the fall. Meeting places include the
local playgrounds, local and surrounding libraries for their events, or
the town beach.
The Windham MOMS Club has a closed Facebook page and
other group media to share information relating to
schools, services, and child-related matters. Their
goal for this scal year is to establish a babysitting
co-op. Other new executive board appointments
are Helen Carnes, administrative vice president;
Laura Luippold, membership vice president; Laura
Cousens, secretary; and Amanda Laws, treasurer.

The topic of how the landscaping and snow removal for the
Windham School District will be handled during the 2014-2015 school
year has been a volatile one for months. Earlier this year, controversy
erupted over whether the job should be done in-house or contracted
through an outside vendor. After several contentious discussions,
the majority of the ve board members decided the status quo of
contracting out the services would continue. Once that decision was
made, the bid process began.
In all, three proposals were received by the deadline, ranging from a
low bid of $234,900 from D.J. Landscaping, of Derry, N.H., to a high
bid of $312,000 from Clear Cut Landscaping, of Tyngsborough, Mass.
A third bid, less than the highest quote, but signicantly higher than
the low bid, was received from Boydens Landscaping of Pelham, N.H.
Boydens Landscaping, which has been doing the job for the past few
years, submitted a price of $302,900 for the 2014-2015 school year.
Boydens also has a contract with the town for landscaping and eld
maintenance.
It was anticipated that a decision on the contract would be made
during the June 3 school board meeting, but the issue was tabled that
evening. On June 17, following an unanticipated non-public meeting,
a motion was made by Vice Chairman Dennis Senibaldi to award the
new contract to Boydens Landscaping for $302,900 for the rst year
of a three-year contract. The motion was seconded by board member
Ken Eyring. Boydens bid was $9,100 less per year than that quoted
by Clean Cut Landscaping, but $68,000 more per year than the one
submitted by D.J. Landscaping.
Following a brief discussion, school board members voted 3 to 2
to award the contract to Boydens Landscaping. Voting in favor of the
contract were Dennis Senibaldi, Ken Eyring and Rob Breton. Voting
against the motion were Michael Joanis and Chairman Jerome Rekart.
Eyring said it was a very difcult decision for him to make as there
was a signicant difference in the bid amounts. Eyring said he feels
the decision to go with Boyden, despite the higher cost, is in the best
interest of the school district. Joanis disagreed, noting that over the
three-year life of the contract, the agreement with Boydens would

Windham Welcomes
New ZBA/Code
Enforcement Administrator
by Barbara OBrien
Windham School District Superintendent
Winfried Feneberg said he has received the
charter application for Windham Academy and is
in the process of studying the document, as well
as doing his homework on charter schools, in
general.
The application was prepared by members of
the Educational Choices Foundation, a non-prot
organization that was created last year. The ECF
was formed by the Windham Taxpayers Coalition,
after a sub-committee consulted educational
experts and came to the conclusion that a charter
school would be benecial to this community
for a number of reasons. Local businessman
Tom Murray, who was already in the process
of developing plans for a charter school in
Windham, has also joined forces with the ECF.
Members of the ECF include Sean Donahue,
Tom Murray, Chris Baker, Jim Fricchione and
Michelle Levell. The board of trustees for the
proposed Windham Academy would include nine
members: a professional educational expert from
the local community (one-year term), a non-parent
member (one-year term), three charter school
founders/major contributors (three-year terms),
three parents (three-year terms); and one member
of the Windham School Board (one-year term).
According to Donahue, the ECF was established
to prepare a charter school application for
approval. There are two ways in which a charter
school can gain approval, either by the local
school district or at the state level. Members of
the ECF prefer going through the Windham School
District, as doing so gives preference to Windham
students. The ECF also serves as an ambassador
or sponsor for the charter school and is tasked
with selecting the initial board of trustees for
Windham Academy.
Feneberg said that the Windham School Board
must weigh in with an opinion on the charter
school application no later than September 15 of
this year. It is anticipated that the issue will be
discussed publically during school board meetings
between now and the September 15 deadline.
Feneberg said that the charter school application
can be viewed on the school districts website.

Introducing the Womans Service
Club of Windham
Te GFWC-NH Windham Womans Club has fled
with the state for dissolution. It has re-incorporated
under the name of Womans Service Club of Windham.
Approximately 70 percent of the dues, plus meeting
and miscellaneous expenses, were going to the state and
national GFWC rather than being put to use here in
the town of Windham for charitable and educational
purposes. After many months of discussion and seeking
alternate solutions, the women of the club voted
overwhelmingly to proceed in this new direction. Te
Womans Service Club of Windham is now a registered
corporation with the State of NH, has been granted
Charitable Trust status with the State of NH, and is
currently pursuing 501(c)3 status on the federal level.
Nothing else has changed; we will still host bake sales
at elections, host Candidates Nights, sponsor the coat
drives, yard sale, and baby shower. We will still partner
with Helping Hands to provide Tanksgiving baskets
for those in need and partner with the town to provide
Christmas gifts for those less fortunate. We will still
provide two scholarships for high school seniors, camp
scholarships and end of year awards for the middle
school, and donations to the libraries at each of the
schools, and so forth. Now we will have more funds
available for these and other projects that help the
wonderful town of Windham we live in.

Action on Highway Trust Fund
Vital to NH Economy
At I-93 expansion site, Shaheen highlights importance
of infrastructure to tourism industry
submitted by the Ofce of U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) joined New Hampshire
ofcials in Windham on Tuesday, July 1, where she pressed
for continued funding for the National Highway Trust Fund
and support for infrastructure projects, such as the I-93
expansion. Shaheens visit to the New Hampshire Department
of Transportation I-93 eld ofce and construction site coincided
with the Fourth of July weekend, traditionally one of the
biggest travel weekends of the year. Based on current spending
and revenue trends, the U.S. Department of Transportation
estimates that the highway account of the Highway Trust Fund
will encounter a shortfall before the end of scal year 2014.
Depletion of the fund could result in the loss of $55 million in
federal transportation funds and more than 700 jobs in New
Hampshire alone.
The summer travel and tourism season is ofcially underway
and that provides an important reminder of the critical
relationship between our local infrastructure and our economy,
Shaheen said. The Highway Trust Fund supports important
projects, including the I-93 expansion, and hundreds of Granite
State jobs. A funding shortfall would result in project delays and
job loss that we simply cannot afford.
Our infrastructure plays an important role in virtually every
sector of our states economy, particularly during the summer
travel and tourism season, and I will keep working so we can see
action on the Highway Trust Fund that is vital to addressing our
infrastructure needs.
Shaheen has consistently fought to improve New Hampshires
transportation infrastructure for both public safety and economic
competitiveness. She worked with the New Hampshire and
Maine congressional delegations to obtain funding for the
replacement of the Memorial Bridge in Portsmouth and has
repeatedly called for the replacement of the Sewalls Falls
Bridge in Concord. She has also fought against cuts to the
Transportation Investments Generating Economic Return program
that encourages economic activity and jobs in New Hampshire
through important
infrastructure
investments.
Earlier this year,
she introduced the
Strengthen and
Fortify Existing
Bridges Act of
2014 (SAFE
Bridges Act) which
would establish a
program to provide
funding specically
dedicated to repair
and replace aging
and deteriorating
bridges.

Windham Selectmen have narrowed down a list of about 20 initial
goals to the dozen that they plan to focus on for the remainder of
the year. Im really excited about these goals, Vice-chairman Al
Letizio, Jr. said. This is some good stuff were working on.
Prior to narrowing down the goals, each selectman rated the
proposed ideas according to his opinion of their importance.
Afterward, the ratings were compiled and the list developed.
Considered to be the highest in priority is the repurposing of the
area in Grifn Park previously used for skateboarding. The skate
park was closed almost two years ago and dismantled this past year,
as a result of vandalism and the failure of some users to abide by
regulations. Currently, members of the towns recreation committee
are reviewing suggestions made by residents and will present any
nal concepts to selectmen sometime later this year.
The other goals, all of which received fairly similar rankings from
the ve selectmen include the following:
Adopting a 10-year operations plan for the town;
Enhancing the towns use of the internet and social media to
improve communication;
Reviewing the organizational structure of all town departments;
Updating the towns strategic plan for the next several years;
Reviewing possibilities for the use or disposal of undesignated
town-owned land;
Establishing a town-wide beautication program;
Reviewing the needs/condition of all town buildings and facilities;
Conducting joint workshops with other town and school district
entities;
Reviewing the status/condition of old Route 111;
Reviewing all State-owned roads given to the Town of Windham as
part of the Route 93 expansion; and
Reviewing all Class VI town roads in regard to possible
discontinuance.
Selectmen Set Goals with Skate Park Repurposing at Top
by Jillian DiPersio, Windham High School Intern
In the past few years, Jared Cassedy, director of the Windham
High School Concert Band, has taken the ensemble to new heights.
Now, it is Cassedys turn to be recognized: Cassedy has been named
a quarternalist for the Music Educator Award, presented by the
Recording Academy and the GRAMMY Foundation.
From more than 7,000 initial nominations, Cassedy was one of
222 music teachers from across the United States to be chosen
as a quarternalist. Despite the fact that there were numerous
submissions for other teachers in New Hampshire, Cassedy
was the only band director selected as a quarternalist from the
state. The award was designed to show appreciation to the best
music educators, of students from kindergarten to college, who
are committed not only to their students, but to keeping musical
education an integral part of school.
In the ve short years that Windham High School has been in
existence, Cassedy has developed the WHS band program into a
thriving, high-level group. In April 2012 the band traveled for the
rst time, performing at Riverside Church in New York City through
the World Strides Heritage Festival. After sweeping the awards
ceremony and receiving the coveted Adjudicators Award, they were
invited to participate in the World Strides Heritage Festival of Gold
at Orchestra Hall in Chicago, Illinois.
In March of 2013 they performed at this festival and once
more received the highest score, selected from their division to
play in the encore concert. In April 2013 they were also invited
to play at the National Association for Music Educators Eastern
Division Conference in Hartford, Connecticut. As a result of their
performance in Chicago, the band was then invited to apply for the
National Band and Orchestra Invitational Music Festival at Carnegie
Hall.
Receiving a score of 98.7, they were chosen from a pool of more
than 400 groups who scored a 95 or higher to perform at Carnegie
Hall in New York City.
Anyone could nominate a teacher to be considered for the Music
Educator Award, including students, parents, friends, colleagues,
members of the community, and school administrators. Nominated
teachers were then invited to ll out an application as the pool was
narrowed down to quarternalists.
The group of 222 quarternalists will be narrowed down to the
seminalists in September and, from there, down to 10 nalists.
One of these educators will be recognized at the Special Merit
Awards Ceremony during GRAMMY Week, 2015. The winner
will be own to Los Angeles to receive the award along with a
$10,000 honorarium. The other nine nalists will be given a
$1,000 honorarium, as well as a matching grant for their schools.
These honorariums and grants are made possible by the GRAMMY
Foundations Education Champions: Converse, Disney Performing
Arts, Ford Motor Company Fund, and Journeys.

This is a bunch of crap, was the comment
heard from one Windham resident during a
multi-hour discussion on proposed amendments
to the towns septic and wastewater regulations.
The issue had already been discussed several
times during prior meetings and been reviewed
by Community Development staff over a two-
year period. Still, when all was said and done,
selectmen chose not to take any action and leave
existing regulations in place.
What seemed to irk people the most is that
experts in the eld were recommending that the
town toss out the local regulations and abide
solely by regulations established by the New
Hampshire Department of Environmental Services.
In fact, Laura Scott, the director of the Windham
Community
Development
Department, said
she also believed
this was the best
recourse, although
she had not actually
proposed such an action. Scott said she didnt
propose doing away with Windhams regulations
on septic systems because she felt it might not be
palatable to town ofcials and some residents.
The issue of amending the local regulations
became even more complicated when Selectman
Joel Desilets suggested changing some of the
wording to the proposed amendments, resulting
in the discussion being spread out over several
meetings. Scott said she felt that the altered
wording would put a burden on homeowners
and could cause undue delays in septic system
replacements. Based on the proposed changes,
certain waivers would have had to go before the
Windham Board of Health, comprised of the
ve selectmen, instead of the health ofcer; a
process which could be time-consuming. Desilets
said he didnt think he had received sufcient
information from town staff regarding questions
he had presented to the Community Development
Department. I solicited input six weeks ago, he
said.
During the June 30 board meeting, Ken Walsh,
who said he has been installing septic systems
in Windham since 1982, urged selectmen not to
approve the proposed amendments. According
to Walsh, under the proposed amendments, the
cost to a homeowner would climb to $11,000, as
opposed to approximately $6,000 under the states
regulations. Do away with the town regulations
and let the state do the job, Walsh urged. It
will be a lot cheaper for homeowners, if you
do. Walsh told town ofcials that the NH DES
has the scientists needed to assure designs are
appropriate. The state does a great job, Walsh
said.
Windham Building Inspector Mike McGuire,
who is also the towns deputy health ofcer,
also supported Windham going with the states
regulations. The state has the last say anyway,
McGuire said.
Bill Evans, who said he worked for the NH
DES for 30 years, agreed that going with the
proposed amendments would wind up costing
homeowners a signicant increase. Taking the
time to explain the process to those in attendance,
Evans said his purpose in attending the meeting
was to help Windham not go backward. While
Evans acknowledged that individual towns in New
Hampshire have the right to enact more stringent
regulations than those required by the state, he
cautioned town ofcials not to hobble the town.
To do so would only hurt Windham in the
long run, he said, adding that it is much easier
to institute regulations than get them repealed.
Setting more regulations is not always for the
best, Evans said. You dont want to over-
excavate (by enacting more stringent rules). If
you do, Windham will wind up with a bathtub,
instead of an environmentally safe septic system.
If you make the rules in Windham more
stringent, it will wind up being more expensive for
homeowners, Evans concluded. I would hang
my hat on that.
Evans explained that the original regulations
governing septic system installation in New
Hampshire went into effect on July 1, 1967. Since
then, years and years of scrutiny have occurred,
resulting in what Evans said is a solid
technical basis for the states current
regulations, even in regard to houses
located on small lots. Weve learned
what works and what doesnt work,
Evans said.
Selectman Roger Hohenberger did
not place as much faith in the states regulations,
however, noting that the NH DES writes rules
for the entire state, not specically for the Town
of Windham. There are a lot of postage stamp-
sized lots in Windham, he said, noting the need
to protect Canobie Lake and Cobbetts Pond.
Theyre not omnipotent, Hohenberger said
of the NH DES. Hohenberger did not want to
amend the existing local septic system regulations,
however, for fear of adding to the nancial burden
for homeowners. Lets just keep what we already
have in place, he said.
Local engineer Karl Dubay urged selectmen to
follow the state rules; end of story. We need
to be realistic in setting and enforcing rules,
Dubay said, adding that passage of the proposed
amendments would wind up in some very, very
busy meetings for selectmen, attempting to deal
with unneeded waivers. Dubay said passage of
the proposed amendments would put a strain on
commercial development in Windham, as well as
on homeowners; thats not needed at all.
Engineer Stephen Keach, who has been in
the business for the past 30 years and has done
a great deal of work in the Town of Windham,
has witnessed the evolution of septic system
regulations over three decades. Keach said he
doesnt feel its even necessary for the town
to be in the septic system business, other than
inspecting the bed bottoms; something the State
DES does not do.
Local engineer Shane Gendron spoke about
the new innovative septic systems that are now
available. Under the proposed amendments,
the installation of these environmentally friendly
systems would require a waiver from the local
board of health. This makes no sense, Gendron
said, emphasizing how much better they are for
the environment and how much less space they
take up than the traditional system.
When questioned about what expertise he
has in the eld of septic system installation,
Selectman Desilets said he didnt intend to inhibit
development in the Town of Windham and values
the judgment of the experts who spoke before
town ofcials that evening. Im simply looking
for answers, Desilets said. This is a matter of
health and safety.
Although Selectman Bruce Breton made a
motion to strike the proposed amendments to
Windhams septic system regulations and to stay
with existing regulations, his motion received
no support. As a result, board members took
no action, other than to advise staff members
to continue looking into the ramications of
changing existing regulations. In the meantime,
all existing regulations remain in effect.

If you make the rules in Windham more stringent, it will wind up being more
expensive for homeowners, Evans concluded. I would hang my hat on that.

by Barbara OBrien
The Town of Windham is frequently referred to as the crossroads
of Southern New Hampshire, reecting the impact of two major
roadways crossing through its borders. A review of police and
re department logs indicates the large number of motor vehicle
accidents taking place on a fairly regular basis on both Route 111
and Interstate 93. In order to handle the escalating number of
incidents, the Windham Police Department has established its own
technical accident reconstruction team.
There are currently two ofcers assigned to the accident
reconstruction team; Sergeant Bryan Smith and Captain Edward
Fedele. Two more ofcers are expected to go through the six-
week training program this summer. Sergeant Smith has been
with Windham Police since 2005. He also serves on the Southern
New Hampshire Operations Unit (SWAT) as a sniper, is a eld
training ofcer and created the recent inaugural Windham Citizens
Police Academy. Captain Fedele has been with Windham Police
since 1998, starting out as a patrol ofcer, moving up to sergeant,
becoming a detective, then assuming the rank of
captain.
The technical accident reconstruction team
goes to work when a motor vehicle accident
results in serious bodily injury or death. Accidents
investigated by the reconstruction team also
include those involving motorcycles and/or
pedestrians. Determining the cause of an accident
involves a lot of mathematics, Smith explained.
Using applied mathematics, scaled diagrams are
created of the entire accident scene. The ofcers
must be very meticulous, Chief Gerald Lewis
commented. They have to get everything right
the rst time. They cant go back to the scene
again. Once a road is reopened and the ow of
trafc begins again, the accident scene has been
compromised and any evidence is obliterated.
Accident re-constructionists are called to the
scene by the patrol ofcer who initially handles
the call. Special team members note their initial
observations, speak with those at the scene and
take photographs. Nothing is moved until the
scene is documented, Smith explained. A 30-
page checklist is used to assure that nothing is
overlooked. A major accident can close roads
for hours, Chief Lewis noted.
A nail gun and spray paint are used to mark
areas of impact and other roadway evidence. A huge gouge in the
pavement often indicates the impact location, Smith said. The
amount of damage to the vehicles and where that damage occurs
tells us a lot, he added. We want to dot as many is as we can.
Differences in old roads and new ones also need to be taken into
consideration. Cars can stop quicker on new roads, because
theyre stickier than old roads, that are already worn down Smith
said, referring to drag factor calculations.
A lot of equipment used by the technical reconstruction team
is obtained through grant funding. This equipment is absolutely
necessary to do the job, Smith indicated. Assistance with accident
reconstruction is also received from Derry Police and the New
Hampshire State Police. The State Police (Troop G out of the Motor
Vehicle Division) has a specialist who is an expert at determining if
damages are pre-existing or occurred during the accident.
The real reconstruction starts after the ofcers leave the scene of
the accident and begin making calculations. Small Matchbox-style
vehicles, driven across diagrams, are actually used in determining
what happened at the accident scene. Also, newer vehicle models
have a black box that provides data on what occurred. These
black boxes tell us a lot, Smith said.
If a driver is charged as the result of an accident and bodily
injury or death is involved, the vehicles are impounded by police.
A complete background check is then done on any suspects or
victims, including a 24- to 48-hour timeline leading up to the
collision. In some cases, a search warrant is required to retrieve
certain information, including cell phone records. Typically, the
investigation into chargeable accidents takes about three months,
but can require four to ve months to complete. Its a long tedious
process, Smith said.
There has only been one fatal motor vehicle accident in Windham
in the last three years, Smith stated, referring to a collision that
occurred on North Lowell Road in 2011. Relative to the technical
accident reconstruction that takes place after a serious incident,
Smith said, Knowing what actually happened, what caused the
accident, can give closure to a family.

Windham Scout
Receives Community
Improvement Grant
by Barbara OBrien
Windham Girl Scout Madeline Reese has been honored by
receiving the 2014 Arthur Baker Community Improvement Grant.
Madeline, who will be a senior at Windham High School this
coming fall, was presented the award by Linda German of the
Windham Garden Club. The annual award is presented to either
a non-prot organization or an individual dedicated to beautifying
an area of Windham.
Madeline will use the $700 grant to improve the Windham Town
Forest. Plans include clearing brush; posting signs; building a
kiosk, complete with trail maps; and creating a phone application
providing information on the town-owned property.
Selectmen expressed their appreciation to Madeline for her
dedication and service to the community. Board members will be
apprised of the progress being made throughout the project.

WHS Concert Band Welcomes Incoming Freshmen
by Jillian DiPersio
The Windham High School Concert
Band is getting an early start this year
as they welcome in the Class of 2018.
On June 30 and July 1 director Jared
Cassedy invited the freshmen up to
the high school for band orientation,
preparing them for the rigor and
excitement of high school band before
having them join in with all of the
upperclassmen for rehearsals later this
summer.
Cassedy explains that the reason for
freshmen orientation is to allow those
students coming in from the middle
school program to transition a little bit
more smoothly into the high school program. Despite the fact that much
of the time is spent going over musical technique, Cassedy believes these
rehearsals help the students to get to know who I am as a director and what
my working styles like. Im able to hear them play and interact with them
and kind of hear from them what theyre expecting from the program.
The rst day of orientation was spent mostly reviewing music theory and
basic technique to be sure the students had a solid understanding of the
fundamentals of music before moving forward. Mostly just technical stuff,
because without that you cant go too far, freshman Henry Soroka says. He
continues, some of its a review but some of the stuffs just completely
new to me. Cassedy continued to review this material into the second
day before the group began going over some of the music the band will be
working on this coming year.
Another reason Cassedy runs freshmen rehearsals early in the summer
is to give the students the chance to form connections with some of the
upperclassmen. We have a lot of band leadership, a lot of upperclassmen
come in to work with the freshmen too so that enables them to create some
connections right off the bat, which is so crucial for students to alleviate that
stress coming into high school, said Cassedy.
Senior Cody Munroe, percussion
section leader, expresses, I think weve
got some real talented musicians coming
up and theyre denitely going to make
the band better. Itll be a good year.
Junior Cierra Cowan, directors
assistant, believes the freshmen have
great potential. They seem to already
know a lot about music, clearly a
testament to the great education
happening at the middle school, and
they seem like they have really great
personalities and Im looking forward to
working with them.
The WHS Concert Band has performed
extremely well in the past ve years,
especially for such a young program. Three years ago they traveled to New
York City for the Heritage Festival, sweeping the awards night and being
invited to perform the following year at the Heritage Festival of Gold. They
proceeded to perform in this festival at Orchestra Hall in Chicago Illinois
and received top scores in their division. This past year the group sent in an
audition tape and was selected out of hundreds of groups to perform in the
National Band and Orchestra Invitational Music Festival at Carnegie Hall.
This year Cassedy hopes to continue to cultivate that strong foundation
of excellence that weve been able to cultivate in these past years. So to
be able to maintain that and even more so develop and grow from that.
Even beyond this, his goal is for students to focus on their own individual
development as musicians and band students.
So far, it seems like the incoming freshmen are ready for that challenge
and have responded positively to the rehearsals this summer. Freshman Leo
Ducharme says that he is very excited for band this year and that Cassedy
is a pleasure to work with. Hes always a happy guy, and hes got a great
sense of humor. Likewise, freshman Alexia Rubin articulates that its good
that the people that are here actually want to be, and it just makes for an all
the more positive experience.
Bids Awarded for Fuel
by Barbara OBrien
The Fourth of July has just become history and many more weeks
of summer lay ahead, but school district administrators have already
approved contracts for the fuel that will be required when those hot
days dwindle down and school buses begin to roll.
On the recommendation of SAU #95 Business Administrator
Adam Steel, school board members unanimously (5 to 0) approved
three contracts for fuel for the 2014-2015 school year. Although
multiple requests for bid proposals had been submitted, only three
were received for #2 heating oil, one for diesel fuel for the school
buses and two for propane. The bids were opened publically on
June 17.
All contracts were awarded to the companies that submitted the
lowest bids:
#2 Heating Oil Dennis K. Burke Co. - $3.2133 per gallon
(high bid was $3.356 per gallon);
Diesel Fuel Dennis K. Burke Co. - $3.3612 per gallon (only
bid received);
Propane Palmer Gas - $1.72 per gallon (high bid was $1.91
per gallon; Palmer already owns the underground tank).
Voting in favor of the three contracts were Chairman Jerome
Rekart, Vice-chairman Dennis Senibaldi, and school board
members Ken Eyring, Rob Breton and Michael Joanis.
The town side of government will be piggy-backing on the
contract with Palmer Gas to save money on the purchase of
propane. However, selectmen decided not to join in with the
school district on buying heating oil. Instead, Town Administrator
David Sullivan will be contacting the vendor that the town
currently uses, to see if they can work out a better deal. According
to Selectman Bruce Breton, the current vendor, who was not
identied, assists with delivering heating oil to residents who are
having nancial difculties.

Since 2009, when Windham High School
opened its doors to students, Case has been
attempting to gain cooperation from three
different superintendents, as well as three
principals. Cable committee members are all
very frustrated, at this point, she told current
Superintendent Winfried Feneberg, who took on
the job a year ago. We shouldnt have to wait
months for answers to our questions, Case told
him. I think weve given the new superintendent
enough time to acclimate. Case said members
of the cable committee have volunteered to assist
with scheduling for Channel 170, but have gotten
no response from school administrators. We
know what were doing, Case said. Were not
just a bunch of little volunteers!
Noting that the cable board is the only
consistent player in the unfolding drama, Case
pointed out that there seems to be no end to the
changing players on the school side. Ive gotten
nothing but empty promises from the school
administration. Youve nally pushed me so far
that youve gotten my back up. All Ive gotten so
far is lip service, Case stated. Comparing herself
to a dog with a bone, however, Case said shes
not about to give up trying to turn Channel 170
into something people want to watch. According
to Chase, videos of the school district Christmas
concerts ran on Channel 170 for about six
months and, currently, the spring concerts are still
rerunning. There isnt even a schedule posted
on the site, so that people know what is showing
and when, she commented. Turning to the school
board, Case said, I dont want to stand up here,
sounding off. Its time the school board begins to
encourage some positive action.
Looking chastened, Feneberg responded that,
Clearly, this has not been tended to. I agree
this is a great resource and we should use it,
Feneberg said of Channel 170. Theres great
potential to engage students in the programming,
he said. School board member Rob Breton,
who was elected this past March, wanted to
know whos supposed to be in charge of the
programming. Feneberg said it is school staff that
is in charge of the high schools TV studio, but,
until just this past week, there was nobody who
was hired specically for this function. Based
on the passage of the 2014-2015 school district
budget, there is now a half-time TV coordinator in
place. The new budget went into effect on July 1.
This is a gap that needed to be lled, Feneberg
continued. I am hopeful that this will change the
landscape of Channel 170.
School board member Ken Eyring, elected this
past March, said he wasnt aware of the problem
with Channel 170. This is a huge resource,
Eyring said. The kids could be learning hands
on. This is an opportunity that could lead to a
future career, he added. This should be part of
the curriculum. Noting his own background in
this eld, Eyring said, I can assure you that I will
give you 100% attention; guaranteed.
On a motion made by Chairman Jerome Rekart,
school board members unanimously approved
appointing Eyring as the school board liaison to
the TV cable
board. This
isnt just lip
service,
Rekart assured
Case. Eyring
will serve as a
direct conduit
between
the cable
committee,
high school
staff and the
school board.
Channel 170- continued from front page
It was a typical enjoyable outdoor concert. We
do a lot of them and they are fun, said B Street
Bomber saxophone player Lou Garofalo.
Former U.S. Massachusetts State Senator
Scott Brown also showed up for the town-wide
celebration.
These guys are legends. Theyve been around
for a while and theyre great, he said about the
B Street Bombers. Anytime you can get the
selectmen to help with these events and all the
volunteers its good for families and brings the
community together.
The Windham Recreation Department decided
to put on the reworks a week earlier due to the
fact that many residents are out of town on the
Fourth of July and because of the reduced price of
reworks. The town went through RS Fireworks in
Londonderry for the celebration, and they were set
off over the Windham High School baseball eld.
They basically give us an $11,000 show for
$7,000 because we do it the week before, said
the Windham Recreation Committee Chairman
Dennis Senabaldi. The selectmen have been very
generous the last few years to give us the money to
do this event.
The reworks concluded a day of town
celebration in Grifn Park known as Windham
Town Day. The reworks began at the high school
a few years ago when a local anonymous town
resident funded all the costs for the rst year.
Inside the senior center, there was also
entertainment of a different kind. Free popcorn
was available, and who can resist the smell of just
popped corn? A large table lled with interesting
rafe baskets drew a lot of attention while others
looked at the various crafts for sale.
Pelham resident Susan Boucher was selling
rediscovered glass products. Many of these
bottles originally held liquor and would have
been discarded. Instead she recycled them into
beautiful one-of-a-kind pieces. Ive learned a
lot about glass etching, she smiled. Most of it
through trial and error.
Leslie Kennedy raved about Bouchers work.
Shes also made Relay for Life pins for me and
Ive raised about $160 with those pins. I give them
away and people make a donation. Susan is a
great asset in our community.
Another long line formed for hand-drawn
caricatures. Hudson resident S. Lianne Brown,
who describes herself as a self-taught southpaw
said she has drawn all of her life. Shes
always studied faces, their character lines and
relationships among faces. I was approached to
draw caricatures at an event, she said about how
she got started. Today she draws light-hearted
interesting caricatures of people.
I love my caricature, said Anne Davis. I
wanted one with my red hat.
Girl Scout Troop 10880 painted faces and made
hand-knitted necklaces between customers.
Most people sat at shady tables long after they
nished eating, enjoying the entertainment, the
gorgeous summer day and conversation with
friends and family. If you missed it this year, look
for it next year.

School Administration Grilled on Roof Repairs
by Barbara OBrien
Windham School District administrators have spent portions of the
last two board meetings trying to explain why they okayed repairs to
the roof on the SAU 95 building without putting the project out to
bid.
Its not the actual $10,904 repair cost that seems to have bothered
some residents, as the job is relatively small compared to the total
operating budget; its the process that has them upset.
The topic rst came up during the school boards June 16 meeting
when Windham resident and business owner Wayne Tarbox came
to the podium. Tarbox is the proprietor of Tarbox Roong; however,
he addressed board members as a taxpayer, not a roong contractor.
According to Tarbox, the school district is paying about $3,500 too
much to have the leaking roof xed. Why are you overspending so
much? he asked. At these prices, Id never get a job.
According to Tarboxs calculations, the cost should be between $3
and $3.50 per square foot, while the expense approved by school
administrators translates into $4.50 to $5 per square foot. This is
a lot to be paying, Tarbox said. As a taxpayer, it just struck me as
odd. The contract agreed to by school ofcials calls for a cost of
$4.79 per square foot.
School Board Chairman Jerome Rekart told Tarbox he would have
the administration look into the issue and get back to him at the
next meeting. As promised, on July 1, Tarbox returned to get some
answers. School board member Ken Eyring got the discussion going
by saying he was disappointed that SAU administrators hadnt
sought school board approval before signing the contract. Eyring
said he was confused as to why the administration wasnt reaching
out to local business owners in an attempt to save taxpayer dollars.
SAU 95 Business Administrator Adam Steel said it wasnt just the
shingles that were being replaced on the SAU roof, but additional
elements as well. Steel said he felt the $10,904 price tag was fair.
A bid process was not conducted on this project, Steel explained.
Instead, quotes were solicited from two companies in which the
administration had faith. Problems had developed previously, he
said, when a portion of the roof was repaired at Center School,
following the acceptance of the low bid. This caused Steel to feel
hesitant about going with an unknown company again, simply
because it had submitted the lowest bid. I was risk averse, at that
point, Steel added. Steel said he had told the maintenance director
to get a quote from a company we trust. As for going with the
lowest bidder versus staying with a company you trust, there is
some balancing that needs to be done, Steel stated. Under no
circumstances, do I ever make decisions that arent in the best
interest of the kids.
School Board Vice-chairman Dennis Senibaldi said he trusts Steels
judgment, noting that Steel is always concerned about whats best
for the students. Eyring said Steels explanation didnt satisfy his
concerns about the higher cost being paid. School board member
Michael Joanis said he felt district ofcials were on a slippery slope
by allowing other business owners to come forward, once a contract
has been made public, and claim they can do the job for less.
I would like to award jobs to local business owners, Joanis said,
but there is a process that needs to be followed. Joanis encouraged
local vendors to register with the SAU business ofce in advance.
Joanis also said he doesnt think it is fair for school board members
to come to meetings and say they talked with this business owner
or that business owner after the process is nished. Eyring took
exception with Joanis comment.
Superintendent Winfried Feneberg said he wasnt comfortable
going back and canceling the existing contract. To do so would
have a chilling effect on any future projects, Feneberg commented.
We need to honor those who did follow the process, he said.
Feneberg also thanked Tarbox for his input, saying administrators
could always strive to improve the process. Tarbox said he wasnt
attempting to take the job away from another contractor. Im simply
saying youre paying too much, Tarbox said. The extra money
spent on this roof could have been used for the kids, he concluded.
Local contractor Tom Murray also came to the podium, stating
that he feels Steel might need some guidance when it comes to
construction issues. After all, roong is not your forte, Murray told
Steel. Murray said he was in no way questioning Steels character
by making this suggestion. Murray also said he understands wanting
to continue working with someone whom you already trust. To
help solve the dilemma, Murray suggested that the school district
purchase a software package that would help determine costs on
a variety of construction projects. Murray also offered to assist the
school district in any way he could, not as a contractor, but, simply,
as a Windham resident.
Chairman Rekart said that, under current purchasing policies,
Steel acted appropriately. Moving forward, however, there will be
more oversight by the school board, he added. Plans are to review
and revise the purchasing policies wherever deemed necessary.
Policies concerning purchasing will be discussed during a workshop
on Tuesday, July 29, beginning at 7 p.m. in the Community
Development Building, next to town hall. This meeting will be open
to the public.

Windham Selectmen have thrown their support behind a proposed plan to improve the
landscaping and parking at the town-owned Searles School and Chapel, located on Range Road.
Long-time resident and active volunteer Margaret Case presented the plan to board members
during their June 30 meeting. The goal is to move ahead with the conrmed plan, Case told
selectmen. Case has been active in raising funds to renovate and repair the century old English
Tudor facility for the past year, after the majority of residents failed to approve a construction bond
in the amount of $100,000, even though the bond payments would have been raised through fees
charged to individuals and groups using the facility, and would not have cost taxpayers a dime.
The latest plan includes two parking lots and extensive landscaping, both of which will make the
area more attractive to those renting the facility, especially for outdoor weddings. Case emphasized
that the project will not affect the adjacent soccer eld. Were not touching the soccer eld, Case
assured town ofcials.
In addition, selectmen also approved local resident and engineer Karl Dubay as the Searles
representative to the Windham Planning Board. Dubay has volunteered his time and expertise
to this project. Selectmen approved Dubays appointment by a vote of 4-0. Voting in favor were
Vice-chairman Al Letizio, Jr. and Selectmen Roger Hohenberger, Bruce Breton and Joel Desilets.
Chairman Ross McLeod was not in attendance at the June 30 board meeting.

In New Hampshire, there can be a ne line between properties
categorized as a junk yard versus what is simply a junky yard.
However, its very important to note the difference because a junk yard
requires town approvals while a junky yard does not.
Few junk yards in the state are the classic commercial facility that you
might picture with rows of old cars, parts, crushed metals and heavy
machinery used for processing these materials. Its obvious that these types
of facilities are junk yards and that they require town approval.
Less obvious are the junk yards that come in the form of a private
property whose owner collects unlicensed vehicles, parts, scraps, or other
materials for personal use. If the amount stored out of doors equals the
bulk of two or more motor vehicles, the property is considered to be a junk
yard. Junky yards may contain the same types of material; however, in a
smaller amount.
A junky yard requires no town approvals and is not prohibited from
any zoning districts in town. The only places where a property owner is
not permitted to have a junky yard are in neighborhoods with restrictive
covenants that prohibit such usage.
Junk yards, on the other hand, are highly regulated. They are
prohibited from all residential districts, and permitted only in the Limited
Industrial District zone. They require screening, odor control, and
buffering from other properties. A junk yard operator must to obtain a
series of approvals to obtain a license and maintain legality in the Town of
Windham.
For more information on junk yards and the regulations governing
them in Windham, refer to, Section 708 of the Zoning Ordinance and
Land Use Regulations. These can be found on the town website: www.
windhamnewhampshire.com. If you have any questions feel free to contact
the Community Development at 432-3806 or stop by during normal
business hours 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Windham School Board members have unanimously
approved increasing the staff working at SAU 95. The
edgling school administrative unit began operations
a year ago, on July 1, 2013, following a split from SAU
28, which it shared with the Pelham School District, for
many years. Windham voters had approved the division
of the two school districts the prior year.
During a school board meeting last month, SAU
95 Business Administrator Adam Steel said that the
number of staff positions had been cut too short
when Windham went out on its own. Three positions
were lost during the division, Steel explained.
We need to bring back the part-time position of
administrative assistant, he told school board members.
Superintendent Winfried Feneberg, who has just
completed his rst year in Windham, agreed with Steels
proposal, stating that he feels the additional position
is an immediate need. It has been necessary to
pay a signicant amount of overtime to SAU staff this
past school year (2013-2014), due to the shortage in
personnel, he said. The average overtime paid this past
school year was about 10 hours per week.
School board members agreed by a vote of 5 to 0 to
hire a part-time administrative assistant for ve hours
per day, during the school year only, at a total cost of
$21,389. Voting in favor of the decision were Chairman
Jerome Rekart, Vice-chairman Dennis Senibaldi and
board members Michael Joanis, Ken Eyring and Rob
Breton. Referring to the success of the rst year of
operations of SAU 95, Rekart commented, This is one
of a very few course corrections we have needed to
make.
In other business, following a non-public session,
school board members approved a two-percent cost-
of-living adjustment to the salary of Superintendent
Feneberg. During the 2014-2015 school year, Feneberg
will be paid $134,130. The school boards decision to
approve the raise was unanimous (5 to 0). Resident Bob
Coole wanted to know where the money for the increase
would come from. Steel said the two-percent cost-
of-living adjustment is already included in the school
district budget, approved by voters this past March.

On Wednesday evening, July 2, a strong band of
thunderstorms moved through the area bringing with
it heavy rain and intense lightning. At approximately
6:09 p.m., Windham Fire and Police departments
responded to Orchard Blossom Road for a
home that had reportedly been struck by
lightning.
First arriving crews encountered a three-
and-a-half story wood framed building
which was occupied at the time of the
incident, with obvious damage to the front
upper portion to the exterior along the roof
and fascia board. As reghters made their
way into the home and into the third oor
and attic area, they encountered moderate
smoke conditions and smoldering re in
the attic space.
A working re assignment was requested
which brought additional towns from Derry,
Londonderry and Salem to the scene to
assist. Londonderry and Nashua provided
station coverage.
Fireghters were able to access and
extinguish the re using all-purpose re
extinguishers. Additional crews assisted
with ventilating the home from smoke.
The entire residence was checked using
thermal imaging cameras, and it was
determined that the re was contained to
the attic space area. Damage from the
lightning was contained to the exterior of
the home where it had entered, while some
of the insulation and wiring within the attic
received minor re damage. There was
no water damage and smoke damage was
light.
The re was brought under control in
less than an hour with crews remaining
on scene to assist with the investigation. The towns
building and electrical inspector, who was also called
to the scene, determined that the residents could
remain in the home. The re was investigated by
Deputy Fire Chief William Martineau.

A new policy in Windham provides a $35 stipend to
town employees who choose to use their own personal
cellular phones for work-related issues, rather than
being provided with a town-owned device. Selectmen
unanimously (5 to 0) approved the new town policy this
past month. According to Town Administrator David
Sullivan, many other communities throughout the region
are already using this method.
Not only is it more convenient for town employees to
have only one phone to use, but by offering employees
the $35 stipend to use their own phone, taxpayers are
actually saving $15 per month. If the town had to provide
an employee with a smart phone, the monthly cost would
be $50.
Not all employees will be receiving the stipend,
however. Its mainly management personnel, as well as
the police detectives, Sullivan commented. Employees
who are using their own cell phones for town business
could be subject to having some of that information made
public under the State Right to Know Law. To obtain that
information, however, a search warrant would have to be
court-issued.
Sullivan also emphasized the importance of employees
obeying any laws pertaining to the use of cell phones
while operating a motor vehicle, They must obey the
law, he said.
Selectman Roger Hohenberger said he is totally in favor
of offering the stipend to those employees who are willing
to use their own cell phones for town business. Im in
favor, if it means the town saving money, Selectman Joel
Desilets added.

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?
Thumbs down to people who feel the need to
gossip about others and spread falsehoods about
peoples reputations/pasts. Thumbs down to those
who believe such words and allow them to destroy
a special friendship. Remember, Whoever gossips
to you will gossip about you.
Thumbs down for not recognizing a student that
had an award for a year round sport with intense
training was committed to the sport for 13 years.
This student also had excellent academics with 22
college credits (wasnt recognized) for and received
an award from NCC for a free college course (given
in hallway of PHS) and 33 HS credits (one more than
the required 32). This sport lead to a professional
career upon graduation yet Pelham HS refused to
present the award from a USA sport that was sent to
PHS to be presented at the athletic awards banquet.
Narrow minded and too many mistakes PHS!
Thumbs up to the Pelham Memorial school
8th graders, you did it! Congrats! Thumbs up
to the Memorial School for the very nice and
thankfully short and sweet graduation ceremony.
However, thumbs down to several students being
unable to participate at graduation due to their
poor grades. As educators, the school should
have been able to do more for these students
to help their grades, to actually educate them,
long before this was an issue. Another thumbs
down to actually preparing the students for high
school, an innumerable amount of students have
attended the Memorial School for three years and
at the completion of the three years these students
still have no idea how to study independently,
write an essay independently, prepare for an
exam independently, or even take decent notes
independently. Please improve on preparing
students for high school with your incoming sixth
graders.
Thumbs up to the person who wrote Thumbs
down to school board member Ken Eyring in
Pelham~Windham News 6/20/14 regarding his
continuous whining about not enough time to
approve vouchers (which pay the Districts bills)
because you dont have time during business
hours to review invoices, not prepared to make
decisions at board meetings because you havent
made time to read your packet, you dont have
enough information. I also agree with this person
that this is unacceptable. I have and continue to
watch the school board meetings and numerous
times you state you need to research information,
look into information because you dont have the
time! I have to wonder about your organizational
skills because you cant prioritize the job you
were elected to do!
Thumbs down to Pelham Parks and Recreation.
Thumbs down for a group of motorcyclists who
have plans to cause damage on the property of
an elderly man and woman. Authorities have
been aware of who is behind this harassment and
potential hate crime.
Thumbs down to Pelham Parks and Recreation.
Thanks for taking all our money for your wonderful
art program youre going to start. You get our
children all excited and then turn around at the
last minute and pull the plug on the time and
everything else. You just blend
in with the rest of the town, dont
cha? Dont know what you
want - dont know what youre
doing. Just like the two little tiny
turnabouts. What a wonderful
town this is getting to be. Have
a nice day.
Thumbs down for the quote,
Million Dollar Trailers, what a
waste again. Why not return the
rentals? Clean up and utilize the
high school trailers we already
own. Nothing wrong with
them. Ive been in them. What
a waste of our taxpayer dollars
again. Dont ask the taxpayers
to replenish that million dollar
piggy bank. A trailer is still a
trailer.
Thumbs up to the
roundabouts in Pelham! I drive through them
every day without incident, and its not nearly as
confusing as the old intersection with the blinking
light which caused so many accidents!
Thumbs up to the Pelham Little League baseball
organization. I mainly writing a thumbs up
because you have to deal with morons who write
right thumbs down to youth sports organizations
and people who volunteer their time. Theres
absolutely nothing worse than parents that dont
get it!
Thumbs up. Two massive thumbs up for
Ken Eyring. Hes the real deal. Hes one of
us. Mr. Eyring was one of two men recently
elected to the Windham school board that ran
on greater transparency and scal responsibility.
Unfortunately, the other guy lied. I urge all
residents to attend the next school board
meeting. The management of $45 million of
your tax dollars is at stake. And if you do go
- please take a moment to shake Mr. Eyrings
hand, and thank him. Its rare to see a true
gentleman and patriot in elected ofce these
days.
Thumbs up to Ken Eyring for sticking to your
campaign promise of being scally responsible,
transparent, and working to get the best for our
schools and the town of Windham. Thanks for
holding rm and not buckling to the status quo
of our school board and district. We need more
people like you on the WSB who ask questions,
request information and read documents
before blindly rubber stamping everything the
administration asks for.
Thumbs down to the Pelham Police. I believe
the Pelham Police Benevolent Fund should
reimburse the Town of Pelham for the ride to New
Brunswick. The IRS says it costs 55 cents a mile
to operate a vehicle. Please send your payment
today for $990 to the town. No other town can
afford to do this but Pelham can? How arrogant
can you get? If the ofcers
wanted to go they should have
used their own vehicles and gas.
Very bad decision on the Chiefs
part and even worse that Mr.
Gleason supports it.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down.
I am writing in response to your
question about if you like or
do not like the roundabouts
in Pelham. I will begin by
asking why are they called
roundabouts? I grew up here in
NH and we always called them
rotaries or trafc circles. When
did we take a British term and decide we need to
adopt it? I agree that t there were problems with
that area but putting two rotaries in a row seems
to be a poor decision. If you have gone through
them when there are no police or workers there
you have to agree many are confused and most do
not yield. One might have been ok but two in a
row in my opinion is a disaster and I think a better
plan could have been adopted.
Thumbs down to Windham
Middle Schools required
summer reading list for
incoming 6th graders. Much to
my shock all the books I have
looked at are PG-13 rated with
very mature themes. The one
my 10 year old selected has a
disturbing description of the
death of a teens parents in a car
accident, sex scenes and many
expletives. Not so much as a
warning to parents. Welcome to
Middle School kids!
Thumbs down to the
supposed replacement pumper truck that is not
really a quote truck for a truck. This new truck
is a Mercedes replacing a Volkswagen. This new
$200,000-plus truck does everything but the
laundry. Its certainly no even exchange. Now,
the re departments budget is the budget and will
continue to be that budget forward.
Thumbs down. Big thumbs down to the
school landscaper in Pelham. Driving through
the local school system today while dropping
my children off at camp I noticed that the elds
that all have irrigation are browning out and
dying, the clover and weed situation is absolutely
horrible, but yet the Town Hall is in remarkable
condition, at least in the front. Im sure the back
of it is in the same condition as the school system
- horrible. And so I just want to know, with all the
money that you are getting from the taxpayers if
youre really happy about the conditions, because
theyre really horrible. And as a taxpayer, Im
very, very disappointed. I dont usually do thumbs
up/thumbs down but you denitely deserve it.
You need to pay more attention to the situation.
Thumbs down to the decaying and dying
tree in front of the Memorial School. That is a
safety issue and should be taken care of before
September before it lands on something or
someone.
Thumbs up to the NHDOT. My property is
along the I-93 corridor, directly impacted by the
current expansion. While the overall experience
has been at times negative, the New Hampshire
Department of Transportation has been accessible,
responsive, and transparent throughout. The
state Project Manager as well as the folks
directly supervising the project here in Southern
NH have gotten back to me with answers in a
timely manner and seem to honestly care about
minimizing the impact of the project upon
surrounding neighborhoods.
Thumbs up and Mega Kudos to the 11 year
old girl who sang The Star Spangled Banner at
Grifn Park on Saturday. It was the most patriotic
rendition I have heard in years! That child has a
God-given talent. Thumbs Up!

Welcome Back to the Hurricane Era of the 50s

by Joseph DAleo, CCM
Hurricane Arthur (as viewed from the International Space Station)
slammed the Outer Banks of North Carolina and then brushed New
England, contributed to the rains, well needed though untimely on
the 4th. Early this spring, we (weatherbell.com) predicted on this
page and on our site http://www.weatherbell.com/2014-hurricane-
season-forecast that there would be more threats than normal to the
east coast and New England this season despite the fact there would
be overall less activity in the deep tropics and fewer storms that
made their way from Africa (called Cape Verde storms). This was
because of cooler than normal tropical water, dusty, dry air blowing
off the Sahara into the high atmosphere, and increased vertical wind
shear because of a developing El Nio. This shear is in the form of
anomalous westerly winds at high levels that come east from the
warm eastern Pacic and blow the tops off of thunderstorms that are
trying to organize in waves moving west in the subtropical Atlantic.
The ocean from the Bahamas north off the east coast where the
Gulf Stream carries warmth Poleward, is warmer than normal and
is north of the unfavorable dry Saharan air and wind shear. We
forecast that old fronts or disorganized waves from the east would
get their act together often closer to the mainland like Arthur did.
Hurricane Carol, one of the worst New England storms, organized
over the Bahamas and slammed Long island and eastern New
England in short order in 1954.
Arthur developed last week just off the southeast coast and feeding
off the Gulf Stream, developed into a Category 2 hurricane crossing
the Outer Banks of North Carolina before brushing New England in
a weakened state. It brought some needed rains but is a potential
omen of storms to follow.
The oceans and sun are the primary drivers to the climate regimes
we nd ourselves in when it comes to hurricanes, tornadoes,
droughts and oods, heat and cold, and snowstorms. In terms of the
ocean, the current combination of a cool Pacic and warm Atlantic
Multidecadal modes is most like the 1950s. That was a period of
drought in the southern Plains like the past few years, and a decade
where six hurricanes created havoc on the Atlantic Coast. We had
Carol, Edna, and Hazel in 1954, Connie and Diane in 1955 and
Donna in 1960.
The ocean cycles average about 60 years and 60 years ago, was
the hurricane era of the middle 1950s.
A lesson from the 1950s is that you can have multiple landfalling
storms in a season, even ones with a normal number of Atlantic
named systems. As the Atlantic cooled, the urry of landfalling
storms ended in 1960 with Donna. The Atlantic warmed again in
1995 and the Pacic cooled after 1998. Floyd developed in 1999,
Isabel made landfall in the Mid Atlantic in 2003, Irene hit New York
and western New England in 2011 and Sandy, New Jersey and New
York City in 2012. Arthur made a close pass this week and there
may be more.
The Atlantic will cool within the next ve years in its 60-year cycle
and then both oceans will be cold. We can rest easier in the east in
the summer and fall. Our winter temperatures will accelerate down
though.
The 1960s and 1970s had the oceans go into their cold phase
and the sun turn relatively quiet and the globe cooled. A series of
volcanoes in the 1960s also contributed by creating an aerosol layer
high up that reduced sunlight. There was also a concern about what
was called the human volcano man-made particulates that were
also blocking sunlight. This is no longer an issue in the U.S. with
scrubbers on our coal plants and cleaner, more efcient cars, but a
real one in China and India.
Some leading scientists and the government then warned of the
possibility of a return to the little ice age conditions we experienced
from the 1600s to early 1800s. The CIA in a 1974 report said
There is a growing consensus among leading climatologists that
the world in undergoing a cooling trend already causing major
economic problems throughout the world. See this Leonard Nimoy
video from 1978. Climate experts believe the next ice age is
on its way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kGB5MMIAVA
Though Wikipedia will list reasons why this fear then never really
happened, you can see evidence here that it did. http://www.
populartechnology.net/2013/02/the-1970s-global-cooling-alarmism.
html.
These factors cooled the globe then, but then from 1979 to 1998
when the sun rebounded and the oceans cycled back warm, the
globe warmed again. Man has the arrogance to think we control the
planets climate. We do play a role with urbanization, deforestation
and locally where pollution is an issue but these effects are small
and localized relative to the main, powerful natural forcings. See
how U.S. temperature cycles match to these cycles in the sun and
ocean and not well with CO2, which has risen this whole period.
The solar has begun its downwards spiral after 1995, accelerating
after 2000 and the oceans have begun cooling. Global warming has
ceased for 12 to 20 years (depending on the data and region). As
the Atlantic cools and all these three factors synchronize, look for
temperatures to accelerate down. Throw in a major volcano (which
can cool the earth a half degree) and we will have to cue Mr. Spock
again.
We will cool like we did in the 1960s and 1970s, and, as we will
explain in the next story, then potentially like the early 1800s. This
will have major negative, even dangerous impacts on our region
especially given the unwise and ultimately very costly energy
policies of the EPA and state elected ofcials. Increasing energy
prices also cause the cost of all goods and services to rise, increasing
the stress further on those on xed income and the poor and middle
class. Dr. Frank Clemente of Penn State University explains the
risk here in this IEA report: http://instituteforenergyresearch.org/

In an era of escalated airline
ticket prices and extra travel
expenses, road trips have
emerged once more as a
popular and
cost-conscious mode of
vacationing for individuals and
families.
Nearly 80 percent of leisure
trips in 2012 were made by car,
says the U.S. Travel Association.
Fodors Travels advises taking
road trips across Canada in the
summer, when temperatures
average 74o F (23o C) and snow
and slush are a distant memory.
Various trips exist that can take
you through urban or rural
areas.
Those making road trips may
be concerned about keeping
costs down, particularly if
saving money is the catalyst
behind the road trip vacation.
The following are a few tips to
stretch dollars that much further
on your next road trip.
Dine out sparingly. Road
stops and drive-thru food
expenditures can quickly add
up during the course of a
road trip. Therefore, pack the
majority of the food you will eat
in a cooler. Not only will this
save money, it will mean food
is at the ready when hunger
strikes. Food need not be all
cold snacks, like sandwiches.
Frozen burgers or refrigerated
frankfurters can be cooked on a
camp stove or tossed on a grill
at a parks picnic area. Save
restaurant dining as a special
treat during the vacation.
Look for inexpensive
lodging. While on a road trip
you may need to compromise
some of the comforts of home
to save some money. Motel
rates are another trip budget-
buster. But by mixing overnights
at motels with less expensive
options you may be able to
mitigate costs. Camp out at a
safe campsite and purchase a
shower ticket so you can enjoy
a cheap, hot shower the next
day. Spend a few nights under
the stars; just be sure you have
the right gear. Some also like to
plan road trip routes between
where relatives live and make
pit stops at a friend or family
members home. When seeking
motels, try to bargain and see if
youre eligible for any rebates or
coupons due to age or military
status.
Map out cheaper gas stations.
Todays smartphones have apps
that enable you to nd nearby
gas stations. Such apps may
even shed light on which lling
stations offer the best prices on
gasoline.
Dont speed. In addition to
being illegal, speeding wastes
gas. Stick to the speed limit to
avoid potentially costly tickets
and improve fuel efciency.
Bring friends along. Friends
will not only make the trip more
fun, but they also can take turns
driving and sharing the costs
of the excursion.
Join a roadside assistance
club. Vehicle problems are
inevitable if you are a frequent
road-tripper whos driving an
older car. Avoid potentially
costly towing costs by joining
a roadside assistance club that
will pay for your vehicle to be
towed if necessary.
Have the proper
paperwork. Keep a current copy
of your car registration, license
and proof of insurance with you
on a road trip. This makes it
much easier to deal with trafc
stops along the way. Individuals
and their passengers planning
on visiting another country
should have their passports
available and follow the laws
regarding bringing food or
goods over the border to avoid
nes.
Road trips can be enjoyable
excursions that cost far less than
other vacations. Road-trippers
can stretch funds even further
with some handy tips.

Its no surprise 66-year-old Judy Newcomb is an active volunteer
in Windham, in particular with Fight 2 Finish Cancer. As a cancer
survivor, she feels its important to show her gratitude for good health
and support from her friends and family by making a difference
for others. Because of Newcombs commitment to giving back to
the community through her volunteerism and positivity, Windham
Terrace Assisted Living presented her with this years Senior Service
Award. Fight 2 Finish Cancer and Newcomb were each being
awarded a $500 gift from Windham Terrace Assisted Living as
part of the award, which Newcomb plans to donate back
to the team. Windham Terrace Assisted Living planned
to present the $1,000 check to Fight 2 Finish Cancer
during a special ceremony on July 8.
According to Lynda Brislin, executive director
at Windham Terrace Assisted Living, Newcomb
is the perfect person to recognize with
this award: This award is our way to
thank Judy for her countless hours of
generous service to our community.
She teaches us all how important
it is to give back and make a
difference. In addition, we
truly believe in the work
she and the rest of the
Fight 2 Finish Cancer
members
are doing to
help families
in Windham
and New
Hampshire.
We want
them all to
know how
much we
appreciate
their dedication and selessness.
Its an honor to be receiving the Windham Terrace
Assisted Living Senior Service Award, said Newcomb,
who worked as a rst grade teacher in the area for 35 years.
I will certainly accept this award on behalf of all of our volunteers
this is not all about me. Its about our cause and helping those who
are currently battling cancer through raising funds for research.
Fight 2 Finish Cancer is a team of 20 educators and instructional
assistants in Windham who raise money for the American Cancer
Society through Relay for Life and fundraising events, such as a local
road race and comedy nights. The group was organized nine years
ago by team co-captains Kim Chaffee and B.J. Martin when Chaffees
brother-in-law was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at age 31. Over
the years, the team has had to add names to its list of reasons why
they do what they do, including former students and a colleagues
5-year-old son. Fight 2 Finish Cancer has become one of the top
fundraisers for Relay for Life in New Hampshire and has raised
approximately $100,000 since its inception.
We feel like everyone has been touched by cancer
in some way, said Chaffee. Cancer knows no
boundaries and thats what makes it so scary.
Through our work, we feel like we are
helping everyone.
Newcomb says getting
involved with this
organization was
important
because she
could provide
comfort, inspiration,
hope and support to those
who are going through a battle
similar to the one she fought four
years ago with Hodgkins Lymphoma. I am
thankful for all the support I had when ghting my
battle, said Newcomb. We are all in this together, and
its important for those who are currently ghting to know they
have an army of people supporting them.
Chaffee says she cant think of anyone who deserves this award
more than Newcomb. She is the rst one to offer her help or to ask
how she can assist in any way, said Chaffee. She
is an incredibly dedicated, kind person.
I just love her.
Newcombs advice to those who are currently battling cancer is to
stay positive. Have hope, said Newcomb. This is just a bump in
the road. Have faith and keep moving forward.
The Windham Terrace Assisted Living Senior Service Award was
started in 2012 to recognize a local nonprot and one of its active
adult volunteers who is 62 or above for their good work in the
community. For the award, a cash gift is given during a
recognition ceremony at Windham Terrace Assisted Living.
Windham Terrace
is the premier assisted
living community
located in the quaint
town of Windham,
New Hampshire,
close to many shops,
restaurants, and
services. Located
just north of the
Massachusetts border,
it is a short drive from
the greater Boston
area. Medical care
and physician
care is easily
accessible with the
four area medical centers
located within ve to ten
miles. Windham Terrace
offers supplemental nursing
care as well, which stands the
community apart from assisted living
communities in Massachusetts due to state
restrictions. For more information, please see

Tucker Lippold
Named NH Player
of the Year
by Jacob Gagnon
The Windham High School boys Volleyball program
has blossomed into a NH state title contender in
a short amount time for a few reasons. First off,
Windhams supportive community has encouraged and
fostered tremendous student-athletes that have excelled
in various sports. Another reason is that Head Coach
Chris Baribeau is dedicated, focused, and capable of
building a championship-caliber team. And, of course,
there has been senior Tucker Lippold who, over the last
four years, has led the Jaguars to the top.
Lippold has been a four-year varsity starter as well
as a three-year team captain. Lippold made his case
as the states most valuable player in each game of
the season. On Friday, May 2, setter Lippold set a
milestone with his 1,000th career assist against Bishop
Guertin High School. Lippold continued to tear up
the competition, leading Windham to a 14-2 regular
season which earned them the second seed in the
NHIAA Championship Tournament.
After cruising through the competition, the Jaguars
were halted in the semi-nal round by third-seeded
Timberlane Regional High School. Lippold rolled
his ankle early on in the contest but still managed to
collect 19 assists with four blocks. Timberlane would
go on to lose to perennial champion Salem High
School in the nals.
While Windham is well on their way to a state
championship in the near future, the impact of the
players from the 2014 season will be felt for years
to come. Both Lippold and teammate Evan Todd
made First Team All-State. Andrew Lowman and Tim
Raymond collected Second Team All-State Honors.
To cap off the seniors nal terric season with the
program, Lippold was named the 2014 Player of the
Year for New Hampshire.

Annual Golf
Tournament a
Success
submitted by Holly Breton
The Windham Wolverines Football and
Cheer program hosted their fourth Annual
Golf Tournament Fundraiser on June 13 at
the Windham Country Club. The event was
a great success with more than 100 golfers
participating during the day and additional
guests attending the dinner and silent auction
in the evening.
The event was organized by Joanne Flynn,
director of golf at the country club. Ms. Flynn
has been working with our organization for
the past four years, and we are very grateful
for the clubs generosity and support, said
Windham Wolverines President Kerri Olenik.
Most people would be surprised at how
much it takes to run a youth football and
cheer program. This fundraiser, along with
a few others we have during the season, goes
towards the enormous operational expenses
associated with organization. Money raised
helps to offset the cost of registration for
families.
On behalf of the Wolverines membership, I
want to thank the businesses and families who
continually support our organization. We are
fortunate to have so many dedicated people
give their time and resources to enable our
program to be so successful.
The Windham Wolverines thank 2014

Pelham Pirates Take Hudson Babe Ruth Championship
submitted by New Hampshire Golf Association
In a tightly contested match where neither
golfer ever held more than a one-up advantage,
James McKee of Windham Country Club made
birdie on the third playoff hole to defeat Brandon
Gillis of Nashua and Souhegan Woods Golf Club
to win the New Hampshire Golf Associations
Junior Championship on June 25 at Campbells
Scottish Highlands Golf Club.
McKee took a one-up lead with a birdie on the
460-yard par 4 fourth hole, but Gillis evened the
match at the sixth when McKee conceded Gilliss
six-foot par putt.
The match stayed square through the 15th hole
with Gillis having several birdie putts in the six-
to 12-foot range over those holes but failed to
capitalize while McKee was getting up and down
and making steady pars.
Finally Gillis got a break on the 16th when
McKees par putt from four feet slid by.
One up with two to play in regulation, Gillis
promptly gave back the advantage when he
missed the green on the 17th from 50 yards. He
then left his pitch four feet short. McKee made
a three footer for par while Gillis missed to send
the match back to all square.
Despite ghting his putter almost all day it
saved him at the 18th when he made a 12-foot
comebacker. That was a clutch birdie putt
Brandon made to halve the 18th sending the
match to a playoff, said McKee.
Gilliss putter saved him again at the rst
playoff hole (the 17th) when he made a four-foot
par save having conceded McKees par.
McKee had it gured early I realized after
the front nine that this was going to be a putting
match. We werent making mistakes off the tee
too much and hitting the greens wasnt too much
of a problem and when we did we were able to
get up and down. It gets down to the putts you
have to make.
After halving the 20th hole (the 18th) with pars
they headed back to the 17th one more time.
McKee and Gillis both laid back on the 322-yard
par 4 with irons, and both hit the fairway.
On 17 I had that approach shot three times
today and I nally gured out how to hit it the
third time. I know how to hit it, and then I need
to make the putt to win, McKee recounted after
the round.
Make the putt he did. Gillis hit the green
ten feet right of the ag and McKees approach
nished six feet above the hole. After Gillis
missed it was all up to McKee to nally end it. I
had ve or six feet downhill with a subtle break.
It was great to see it go in.
The win was the rst of any kind for the
15-year-old McKee. A lot of hard work put
forward and to nally see that hard work pay off
today by being able to execute the shots under
pressure was really rewarding, he said after
being presented the winners trophy.
McKee is now off to try to qualify for the
U.S. Junior Championship in Trumbull, Conn.
where there are four spots up for grabs for the 60
entrants in the 36-hole event. McKee thinks the
NHGA Junior was a good prelude for that.
I didnt have a lot of time this week due to
nals at school. Ive been trying to build up my
endurance to play 36 a day, and this tournament
was a really good way to build it up, he said
looking ahead. I played 80 holes over three
days this week. Thats a lot of golf.

After playing a terric regular season in which the Windham
High School Softball team went 12-4 and earned the fourth seed
in the NHIAA Division II Championship Tournament, the Lady
Jaguars nished the season shrouded in disappointment. Windham
clobbered Hollis-Brookline, 12-6, in the opening round of the
tournament before being upset by the 12th-seeded Pembroke
Academy in the quarternals. Despite the regret of not extending
their postseason, the Lady Jaguars tremendous season was honored
with All-State recognition.
Senior Rachel Vades was named Second Team All-State as an
outelder after her solid season. Junior Cailyn Costa, also in the
outeld, received honorable mention. Sophomore Rachel Rogers
made Second Team All-State as a pitcher. Coaches Liz Roy and Jenn
Waldecker were named the Junior Varsity Coaches of the Year for
Division II.
Windham Head Coach David Hedge helped coach the NH team
to victory in the 6th Annual NH-Maine High School Senior All-Star
game on Monday, June 30, at Portsmouths Alumni-Wentworth
Field. The Granite State squad defeated Maine in both games of the
doubleheader, with scores of 12-1 and 12-5. New Hampshire still
trails in the series to Maine 2-3-1, but has won the last two series.
Although they did not achieve their ultimate goal, the Lady
Jaguars had a solid season that should be warmly remembered by
coaches, players, and supporters alike.

Area Stars Suit up for CHaD Football Classic
Pelhams Joe Slattery and Windhams David Crichton represented the East All-
Star Squad at the 2014 CHaD All-Star Game.
by Marc Ayotte
Several local high school gridiron stars were selected to play in the
recently played Third Annual CHaD East-West High School football
game held on the campus of St. Anselm College, Manchester, on
June 28. The marquee game featured the top graduating players
from around the state of New Hampshire during the 2014 season.
Among those selected to don the blue jerseys of the East
squad during the battle of the best, were: Joseph Slattery and
Chris Medeiros (inactive/injury) of Pelham, Jarred Lozowski and
Jason Martinez of Salem, as well as Christian McKenna and David
Crichton, who were the lone representatives from Campbell High
School and Windham, respectively. Crichton will be attending St. As
in the fall and will be suiting up for the Hawks.
Childrens Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock is a full-service
childrens hospital that cares for more than 60,000 children
statewide. The CHaD All-Star football game is one of the premier
fundraising events, and in the rst two years of its existence, raised
over $500,000 to go toward everything from well-care visits to the
most complex childhood diseases.
The Pythons Joe Slattery said, It was an honor to be chosen for
this game, but the three-sport PHS star also saw
the bigger picture. According to Slattery, Playing
for such a great cause made the game that much
sweeter. The money we raised for the CHaD
hospital is something I will never forget. It felt
good to represent Pelham one more time before I
head off to college.
The game had a special meaning for the Pelham
star who had his senior season cut short when he
suffered a season-ending injury in the playoffs.
It felt amazing to put on my pads again after
being sidelined and watching my team lose in the
quarternals, revealed Slattery. He addressed the
continued and widespread support he received
since his injury: My family and friends have
been by my side during the whole process of my
injury, and I cant thank everyone enough for
all the support they gave me. Slatz, as he is
affectionately referred to by his teammates, also
thanked his teammates and coaches for their
respective roles in a very successful career in
Python Country. In the fall, he will be attending
Nichols College of Dudley, Mass., where his
academic endeavors will include majoring in
business and minoring in sports management while
also playing baseball for the Bisons.
For Jaguar David Crichton, participating in the
All-Star game culminated an outstanding senior
campaign that also saw him capture a D-III
wrestling state championship on his home turf. I
was honored to be able to play in the CHaD game
and represent my school, offered the WHS star.
Crichton also noted the importance of the bigger
picture, acknowledging that ultimately, at the end
of the day, playing for the kids and raising some
money for them was paramount to the football
game itself. As one of the nest student/athletes,
and most respected individuals to graduate from
Windham this year, Crichton has plans on spending
a lot of time on the Hawks eld that played center
stage for the CHaD game; next fall I will be playing
football at Saint As and I couldnt be more excited.
Campbell High in Litcheld was also represented
with a single player in the form of outstanding signal-
caller, Christian McKenna. The CHS slinger, who
led the Cougars aerial assault on the way to a ne
regular season, in true team-rst fashion, credited his
mates for being the only representative to be selected
to compete in the event, while also acknowledging
that it was more than just about the game. It was an
honor being able to play in such an important game
for such a great cause. It was great to see many
members of the community help raise money for
the cause in my name, and I can thank my team for
being the only one picked because they made this
season so successful, reected the Cougar QB.
When asked what the most important thing he
took away from his CHaD experience, McKenna
continued to show that his feet were rmly planted
on the ground; understanding and indicating exactly
what was most important. McKenna observed
that one thing stood out; the gratitude from
those kids who (we) met from the hospital.
He continued by adding; the whole thing
was very humbling; seeing many kids who
may never be able to play football. In the
fall, McKenna will concentrate solely on
his education when he attends Wentworth
Institute of Technology with plans of studying
architecture.
Rounding out the local participants were
Salems duo of Jason Martinez and Jarred
Lozowski. Although Lozowski was unable
to be reached for comment, his Blue Devil
teammate shared his thoughts on the CHaD
experience. It was such a blessing and honor
to be even chosen for such a great game,
noted Martinez. The amboyant Salem RB,
like so many others before him, shed light on
the true meaning of the players involvement in the event;
I got to meet a lot of great kids and had a fun time doing it.
The best part of all was the reason we were playing in the rst
place; for the children being treated at the CHaD hospitals
and to raise money for such a great cause.
In the fall, Martinez will take his previous athletic and
academic accomplishments to Ol Durham town where his
aspirations are admirable. Next year I will be attending the
University of New Hampshire, undeclared - going towards a degree
in political science and also joining the pre law program. With
a bright future ahead of him, the former Blue Devil standout also
added; I will be playing on the football team as a preferred walk on,
which is another blessing and opportunity I will take advantage of.
