Local man who robbed Sanbornton General Store faces jail timeBY DONNA RHODES
SANBORNTON — Aric Camire of 522 New Hampton Rd. in San-bornton pled guilty in Belknap County Superi-or Court to theft by un-authorized taking with a deadly weapon after an April 8 armed robbery at the Sanbornton Gen-eral Store.
Sanbornton Police Chief Steve Hankard revealed last week that Camire was found guilty of the felony charge by Judge Larry Smukler, and now faces jail time, as well as several other conditions as a result of his actions this past spring.
Camire was credited with 97 days of pre-tri-al confinement and re-manded to the Belknap County jail to complete his 12 month sentence, where work release, consistent with adminis-trative regulations, was approved for him.
During that time however, Camire was ordered to participate in drug and alcohol treatment and coun-seling programs and to remain compliant with any recommended men-tal health treatment and counseling.
Upon his release from
jail, he will be placed on probation for a period of three years and will also need to participate meaningfully in any pro-grams as outlined by his probation officer. Viola-tions could result in the probation/parole officer authorizing a minimal jail time of one to seven days, and could result in the revocation of his pro-bationary status.
Camire is furthered ordered not to have contact with two undis-closed persons involved in the case nor is he to enter the Sanbornton General Store at any time in the future.
On the night of April 8, Sgt. Justin Howe re-sponded to a call con-cerning a person dressed in dark clothing, a hood, mask, and wear-ing gloves. That man entered the store then went behind the counter while the clerk was busy in the back of the store.
“On surveillance vid-eo, the subject is seen placing a silver item, which appeared to be a firearm, into his back pocket as he walked into the store,” Hankard said at the time.
The video also showed the suspect ripping the cord from the store’s telephone as he tried to
open the cash register.Hankard said a pa-
tron of the store saw what was transpiring, yelled at the suspect and then chased him out the front door and into the
woods across the road. In a cooperative Mu-
tual Aid response by oth-er surrounding towns, Camire was tracked by a K9 unit from Gilford and Tilton Officer Jeremiah
Trott who later arrest-ed the man at his home. The gun, which was dis-carded in the woods, was also recovered by San-bornton police the next day along with other ev-
idence.“Everyone involved
did a really good job, as did the County Attor-ney’s office, which pros-ecuted the case,” said Hankard.

Proposed weight limits prompt questions in SanborntonBY DONNA RHODES
SANBORNTON — Local heavy equipment owners filled Sanborn-ton’s Town Offices last week for a public hear-ing on a proposed weight limit for trucks which travel the town’s road-ways, and in the end, a reasonable compromise was proposed by those who live and operate large trucks in the town.
Selectman Johnny Van Tassel opened the hearing by saying there would be no decision made that night; the board simply wanted to hear from residents about the topic.
“We’re looking for information to help us come up with a decision to care for the taxpayers, and for the people who use our roads,” said Van Tassel.
Right away, hands were raised as residents who own large trucks asked to speak on the subject.
The subject of weight was upsetting to many who felt some trucks could be singled out unfairly if the Public
Works and Police De-partments were asked to monitor the roads for overweight vehicles.
“You could chose trucks you want to target and overlook those you don’t,” said Earl Leigh-ton. “(DPW) goes along the edge of the road and you’re overloaded all the time. You’re the biggest contributor.”
Selectman Dave Nick-erson agreed with Leigh-ton’s sentiments, saying later in the hearing, “Our town trucks are overloaded with every stinking (snow) storm. We’re doing the damage, too.”
Others were con-cerned that if they had to bring a logging truck or loaded dump truck home at the end of a work day, they could be subjected to being overweight if a proposed 80,000 pound limit was set. The idea of taking out bonds to cov-er any damage their ve-hicles might do by sim-ply traveling to or from work would be cost pro-hibitive in an industry already being squeezed under many state and federal regulatory fees.
Resident and contrac-tor Michael Beane spoke in defense of local truck-ers while acknowledg-
ing road damage caused by long term logging and construction jobs in the town, which is where he perceived the real prob-lem to be.
“Subdivisions and logging operations should put up a bond. I’m not going to fill out the paper work (for a bond) every time I have to bring a truck home, though,” Bean said.
He said bonding is a common procedure in the worlds of construc-tion and trucking when long term projects are underway. The contrac-tor or truck owner pur-chases a bond in what-
ever amount the town determines for a job, depending on its size and location. If no dam-age is done at the end of the project, the contrac-tor gets his money back from the insurance com-pany for the bond. But, if the town needs to repair a road due to heavy traf-fic cracking or damag-ing a paved or dirt road they have the bond mon-ey to fix it at no cost to the taxpayers.
The select board, as well as DPW Director Brian Bordeau, agreed that bonding on projects would be a reasonable solution to consider
and Assessing Assistant Robb Jutton, who first brought the idea of a weight limit to the board, said he was glad to hear all the men had to offer on the subject.
“It’s my ‘bad’ to put it on weight. If there’s a project in the town go-ing on and it’s as simple as that, we could go with a bond. I guess I’m guilty of overcomplicating it all,” said Jutton.
Van Tassel thanked all who attended for their valuable input, and said a final decision would be made at a later date.

Voices from Sanbornton’s past to visit next Historical Society meeting
S A N B O R N T O N — On Thursday, Sept. 11 at 7 p.m., the San-bornton Historical So-ciety will present a time travel journey through the voices of “C H Lane, Tavern Proprietor”; “Hannah Lane,” his daughter; and “Pearl Colby,” early 20th Cen-tury school teacher. Actors and narrators include Vicky Abbott, Evelyn Corliss Auger, Linda Salatiello, and David Witham. Their lives span most of the 19th Century and some of the 20th Century in
Sanbornton as a town which included both in-dustry and agriculture, varied social life and culture.
Evelyn Auger, who has written and pub-lished much local his-tory, will play “Han-nah”(born circa 1830) reminiscing about her childhood at the Tavern. Linda Salatiello will act the part of Pearl Colby, school marm early in the 1900’s. Salatiello has considerable experi-ence with living history as a Lane Tavern guide and researching many
of the history programs for the Historical Soci-ety. She has a Masters in History from Clark University, Worces-ter, Mass./lrove David Witham,current Presi-dent of the Board of the Sanbornton Historical Society is an experi-enced guide at Shaker Village,
Canterbury. A grad-uate of Keene State Uni-versity and a lifetime teacher and school ad-minister, he grew up in
Laconia. He will play C H Lane.
Vicky Abbott, who has taught primary grades for 40 years be-fore her retirement and run her own pre-school, also has much experi-ence with playing roles involved in early San-bornton as a Tavern guide. She farmed on land which was central to the development of early Sanbornton and her adult children still
farm on that land. She will introduce the other characters as she makes discoveries in an old at-tic.
Refreshments well be served by members af-ter the program.
The Sanbornton His-torical Society provides its education programs free to the public. It is a 501c3 nonprofit organi-zation organized in 1952.

PET OF THE WEEK ISISBeautiful, elegant,
queenly, purrfect and apt descriptive words for this stunning Choc-olate Pointe Siamese cat – whom we called Isis after she was brought to New Hamp-shire Humane Society as a stray, back in the winter.
Those mysterious azure eyes will never reveal her entire sto-ry, that she came into the shelter on Meredith Center Road, Laconia, in the middle of winter, with nary a mark of the cold on her. Never claimed, no calls look-ing, already spayed, the mystery deepens. Quickly we realized she had some gastric issues. Again, thanks to top notch veterinary care,
and now, pastoral care including daily mas-sage, probiotic therapy, a raised food dish and a special diet… Isis - holding court happily in our medical depart-ment is doing just fine.
Tolerant of some dogs, preferring to be the only cat – and com-pletely snuggly to any human, she is ready for her second chance – a permanent forever home. Those inter-ested in adopting Isis should call 603-524-3252 to learn more about her care and to meet her in person. Shelter is open Tues/Thurs/Fri/Sat/Sun. for more informa-tion about Isis, and spe-cific hours of business, check www.nhhumane.org

To the Editor:I would like to ask those residing in House Dis-
trict 4 (Sanbornton & Tilton) to vote for Brian Gal-lagher in the Primary election on Sept. 9. Upon win-ning the Primary, he will be one of the candidates on Election Day, Nov. 4, to become one of our new representative to the New Hampshire House of Rep-resentatives.
It’s rare that we find a candidate with Brian’s qualifications willing to server our community. Bri-an has an excellent business background as a past Manager & Business Administrator for two New
Hampshire SAUs, holds an MBA Degree in Manage-ment,
and has also served in the New Hampshire Bud-get Office and New Hampshire Office of Courts in the past.
I know that his business experiences will help in representing all the 3,200-plus residents of Sanborn-ton & Tilton in House District 4.
Please make it your business to vote on Primary Day, Sept. 9.Bill WhalenSanbornton
To the Editor:There’s a saying we used in the Army for guys
like Bill — “Would you like a little cheese with that whine?”
First of all, Bill, you provided bad information in your [letter], misrepresenting the law and com-pany policies. Yes, HB 1629 was passed in August 2012, but the veterans indicator didn’t go into effect until this past July 1, so you might consider a little reaction time for starters. Also, the indicator is only used for receiving benefits and services under New Hampshire law, and does not suffice for a military ID. Furthermore, Home Depot and Lowe’s provide a discount for active, reserve, and retired military members with a military ID, and for those with a Veterans Administration ID indicating “Service
Connected” on the face of the ID Card. You indicate in your article that veterans who have applied for a disability, which is not correct.
Lastly, the two companies do not discriminate against other veterans, as they provide the discount to all on Memorial, Veterans, and Independence Days. So again, please stop whining and asking for an asinine boycott of the stores. I recommend you visit them on the specified days you can take the discount and say “Thank you!” If that does not seem reasonable to you, why don’t you write the company headquarters and ask them nicely to consider your request.

To the Editor:My choice for District 2 Belknap County Commis-
sioner is small business owner Richard Burchell. The district includes the towns of Barnstead, Bel-mont, Gilmanton, and Tilton. He understands the economic pressures on the people throughout the County.
Richard also understands that in order to develop positive working relationships you must first build
trust by listening and respecting others. We need to elect County Commissioners who will promote good will with the County Delegation to get Belknap County moving forward again.
Please vote September 9th for Richard Burchell for County Commissioner, on the Republican prima-ry ballot.

To the Editor:The Belmont Public Library just completed a
hugely successful summer reading program, and we couldn’t have done it without the support of our com-munity and some very generous local businesses. We were able to offer 13 Fizz Boom Read programs for the 134 children who signed up for summer reading.
We’d like to give a big thank you to all the par-ents, grandparents, and caregivers who brought their kids to the library this summer, to the won-derful performers who put on dynamite shows, and to the following area businesses who donated goods and services to the program: Belmont Parks & Recre-ation, Big Lots, Brookside Pizza, Canobie Lake Park, Coca-Cola, Funspot, Market Basket, Portland Sea Dogs, Santa’s Village, Subway and Water Country. A special thank you goes to the folks at Brookside Piz-za, who sponsored a delightful performance by Lind-say and Her Puppet Pals, gave a free slice of pizza to every child who signed up for summer reading, and
then delivered pizza for 50 children and parents at our closing party on Aug. 15.
We were also fortunate to receive a Kids, Books and the Arts grant from the New Hampshire State Library for our kick-off performer, Peter Boie, who drew a crowd of 100 with his “magic for non-believ-ers.” Funding for Kids, Books and the Arts is pro-vided by the Jack and Dorothy Byrne Foundation, CHILIS, Cogswell Benevolent Trust, and is support-ed in part by a grant from the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts as well as funds administered by the New Hampshire State Library provided by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Thank you to every-one who helped to make this a very special summer at the Belmont Public Library!

To the Editor:There once was a time when Congresswoman
Carol Shea-Porter would say she stood up for Gran-ite Staters in Washington. Her campaign slogan even was “for the rest of us.” Just like her days of holding town hall meetings, that jingle is now a thing of the past. The truth is that Washington special interests and party leaders have changed Carol. She’s become an extremist liberal elite who refuses to meet with her constituents at a New Hampshire town hall, but
will go to Napa Valley, Calif. to wine and dine at fundraisers with Nancy Pelosi and billionaires like the radical Tom Steyer.
Shame on you, Carol Shea-Porter. New Hamp-shire’s Fist Congressional District isn’t for sale to billionaires in California’s wine country.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORn
September 4, 2014
www.sundaypaving.comPO Box 1136 • Wolfeboro Falls, NH 03896
To the Editor:The duties of New
Hampshire state repre-sentative are to be acces-sible and listen to con-cerns of voters on both sides of an issue in his district.
Recently, outside the entrance of the Sanborn-ton Transfer Station (dump), Dennis Fields was set up with lots of his campaign signs. I thought this was my op-portunity to ask some questions of the candi-date. I asked questions regarding the proposed Northern Pass Hy-dro-Quebec/PSNH proj-ect.
To my amazement and shock, Dennis Fields was not interested, and would not give me the opportunity to express what I learned from
going to all four scop-ing meetings (Concord, Plymouth, Whitefield and Colebrook). I even spoke with Washing-ton’s Department of En-ergy and attended open houses and asked ques-tions of the other side.
He admitted that most people do not want the Northern Pass at all, but he’ll be the one person voting for it, ignoring what the people in his district want.
If the Northern Pass happens, organic farm-ers will no longer be or-ganic, which is quite an ordeal to be awarded. We are going to lose a lot more jobs than the few temporary jobs prom-ised by Northern Pass, and suffer the perma-nent loss of New Hamp-shire’s beauty.
As for PSNH, they have outsourced its bill-ing to Texas. How many jobs were lost by that move?
Hydro-Quebec has taken back its own na-tive lands to dam and flood to the size of New Hampshire. Dennis Fields didn’t care if peo-ple here in New Hamp-shire lost jobs, nor what was happening in Cana-da. I suggest he go online to learn more.
Dennis Fields is there to represent our voices in Concord.
Dennis Fields re-fused to listen to me, and walked away.
As a voter, I deserved to be heard. Do not vote for Dennis Fields.
S. SakempSanbornton
To the Editor:I recommend, without
reservation, that San-bornton & Tilton citizens vote Brian Gallagher for State Representative.
I have known Brian since the 1980’s, when our children became friends, and we later served together on the Sanbornton Budget Committee. His work and community experi-ences more than qualify him as the State Repre-sentative for Sanbornton and Tilton. His resumé reads like a job descrip-tion for State Represen-tative.
1. He is educated with a BA in Political Sci-ence, an MBA in Man-agement, and an AOS in accounting.
2. He is experienced with 12 years in the New
Hampshire State Bud-get Office, eight years in New Hampshire Su-preme Court Adminis-trative Office, and six years as Business Ad-ministrator for several local school districts.
3. Involvement at Town level: in elected positions: he served on Town Budget Commit-tee, Library Trustee, and Trustee of The Trust Funds. He currently represents Sanbornton on the Winnisquam Re-gional School District Budget Committee.
4. As a community volunteer, he served as a soccer coach through the Sanbornton Rec Commission. He cur-rently serves as an ac-tive volunteer in several positions at his church.
In these times when
government officials tend to overspend bud-gets, choose which laws to enforce, overstep or bypass the Constitution & thereby threaten not only our form of govern-ment, but threaten our Constitutional rights, we need to start the fix at the local level. We need Brian Gallagher to rep-resent Sanbornton & Til-ton in Concord. He will vote in the best interest of our towns. He has the experience and knowl-edge in State & Munici-pal levels of governance, laws, budgets, and plan-ning. Vote Brian Galla-gher for State Represen-tative on Sept. 9!

David DeVoySanbornton
To the Editor:To the residents in
District 7 (Gilford, Laco-nia, Belmont, Franklin, Northfield, Andover, Canterbury, Boscawen, Salisbury and Webster):
My name is Kathy Rago, and I am running for State Senate because I believe that our state government needs ca-pable people to provide careful fiscal analysis and a willingness to make tough decisions. As an accountant and a CPA, a prior House Representative and a mom of three great kids, I know how important it is to create a careful budget and live within our means. According to multiple news sources, New Hampshire stands on the precipice of an-other $100 million short-fall due to overspending in Concord.
Since 2006, we have not only had three dem-ocratic majorities, but also severe overspend-ing problems. It seems reasonable to assume that if re-elected, these same law makers will be incapable of living within the extremely accurate revenue projec-tions provided to them and once again over-spend your hard-earned money. No one thus far predicts that the current overspending will top that of the 2008-2010 bi-ennium, when the dem-ocratic majority over spent by approximately $800 million, but this must stop! Increasing the gas tax and other fees to try and offset this out-of-control spending is not right and our tax-payers deserve better.
Who will look out for the working families that are already struggling and hold Concord ac-countable? I will.
The first thing we will need to do is intro-duce careful cost reduc-tions in all departments to stem the bleeding. But soon after, we will need to take actions to jumpstart our economy to build a welcoming business environment, grow jobs and get us out of this awful stagnation. When we, once again, welcome businesses to the state...and when we provide an environment for businesses to grow, we will see more people hired and fewer having to leave our state to find suitable employment. How do we get there? We need to cut business tax-
es (currently third high-est in the country), we need to reduce or eliminate burdensome regulations without jeopardizing safety or our environment, we need to get our energy costs under control and finally we need to stop wasteful spending. (Per-haps you’ve heard me speak about the wasteful $79,000 door in the state-house?). But absolutely everything should be on the table for review to jumpstart job growth in our state.
I ask for your vote on Nov. 4 so that we can, once again, place an “Open for Business” sign in New Hampshire.
Kathleen Lauer-RagoCandidate for Senate
District 7
To the Editor:Seldom do I weigh in
on candidates during a Republican prima-ry. Usually, I have found the Republican prima-ry winner, whether or not he/she was my first choice, to be far better for the taxpayers than
the Democrat candidate.This year, howev-
er, there is a primary race in Belknap Coun-ty that doesn’t fit that scenario. State Rep. Dick Burchell is run-ning against an incum-bent for a County Com-missioner seat. Since the
two of them each have extensive voting re-cords, it’s easy to see the significant contrast in how they represent their constituents, particular-ly in fiscal issues.

TILTON — Mr. Phil-ip Michael Labnon, 88, a resident of the New Hampshire Veteran’s Home, Tilton, passed away peacefully, sur-rounded by family, on Wednesday, Aug. 6, 2014.
Phil was born in Ber-lin on Sept. 4, 1925, the son of Morris and Rose (Hebbep) Labnon. He attended Berlin schools until enlisting in the U.S. Marine Corps in 1943, where he proudly served the 5th Marine Division in Iwo Jima. Upon his Honorable discharge in1946, he
returned to Berlin to work for his family’s businesses.
Phil loved hard work and the quiet of the out-doors where he spent many days fly-fishing and hunting. For many years, he was the care-
taker at Phillips Brook Lodge in Stark. The lodge was his second favorite place to be, the first being the race-track.
Family was always important. Phil cared very much for his fam-ily. He would often express how proud he was of his children and grandchildren. He of-ten reminisced about days gone by with fami-ly and friends, and had great stories to tell. We were blessed to have him and his stories with us for as long as we did.
Phil is survived by his brother, Rob-ert “Bob” Labnon of Berlin; his three sons (David Labnon and wife Trish of Wilton, Douglas Labnon, Cocoa Beach, Fla., and Darren Labnon and wife Mary of Cocoa, Fla.); two daughters, Donna Sul-ley and husband Scott, Portsmouth, and Di-ane Wyman and Garry Dominguez of Kittery Point, Maine; grand-children Strider Sulley of Portsmouth, Scott Wyman of Cocoa Beach, Fla., Clay Wyman of Kittery, Maine, Emily Wheeler of Boca Grand, Fla., Ashley Labnon of Peterborough, Kev-in and Derek Labnon of Cocoa, Fla., and Jasmine Dayna Boyd of Cocoa Beach, Fla.; great-grandchildren Michaela and Stone Sulley of Portsmouth, Ella May Diaz and Grey Wheeler of Boca Grand, Fla., and many nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his wife, Jeannette (Lavoie) Labnon; son, Dana M. Labnon; par-ents, Morris and Rose (Hebbep) Labnon; brothers Ralph “Navy” Labnon, Richard “Arab” Labnon, and Raymond Labnon; and sisters, Emily Labnon and Josephine Weston.
The family of Phil wishes to express their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the staff at the New Hamp-shire Veteran’s Home for their warmth and wonderful care they provided to our father and grandfather.
A brief service will held on Wednesday, Sept. 10, 2014 at 11 a.m. at the New Hampshire Veterans Cemetery in Boscawen. Arrange-ments are in care of Paquette-Neun Funer-al Home, Northfield ( w w w . n e u n f u n e r a l -homes.com).
Expressions of Sym-pathy may be made in Phil’s name to the Res-ident Fund, NH Veter-an’s Home, 139 Winter St., Tilton, NH 03276.
LACONIA — Mela-nie (Gober) Sitar, age 55, a former longtime resident of Tewksbury, Mass., recently of La-conia, passed away unexpectedly from a spontaneous brain hem-orrhage at the Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Med-ical Center in Lebanon on Friday, Aug. 29, 2014.
She was the beloved wife of retired Tewks-bury Fire Department Captain and current Tilton-Northfield Fire & E.M.S. Department Chief, Michael W. Si-tar, Jr., with whom she would have celebrated their 32nd wedding an-niversary on Dec. 18.
Born in Cam-bridgeshire, England on March 29, 1959, Mel-anie was the daughter of James W. Gober of Hampstead, who sur-vives her, and the late Marian (Imlauf) Gober.
Melanie was raised in Billerica, Mass., at-tended Billerica schools and graduated from Bil-lerica Memorial High School in 1977. Follow-ing high school, she at-tended the Lowell Gen-eral Hospital School
of Nursing, where she received her Degree as a Registered Nurse in 1982.

WINNISQUAM ECHO September 4, 2014
On Sept. 8, we observe National Grandparents Day. If you have grandchildren, they will hopefully mark this occasion by sending a card, making a call or, best of all, paying a visit. But however your grandchildren express their feelings for you, you undoubtedly have a very big place in your heart for them. In fact, you may well be planning on including your grandchildren in your estate plan. If that’s the case, you’ll want to do the best you can to preserve the size of your estate — without sacrific-ing the ability to enjoy life during your retirement years.
Here are a few sugges-tions to help you achieve this “balancing act”:
Expect market volatili-ty — and don’t overreact. If you’ve been investing for a while, you know that vola-tility in the financial markets is normal. In fact, it’s not unusual for the market to drop 10%, or even more, in a year. Try not to over-react to this type of vol-atility. For example, don’t immediately sell investments just because they’ve had a down year — they may well bounce back the next year, especially if their fundamen-tals are still strong.
Diversify. It’s always a
good idea to diversify across a range of investment vehi-cles — stocks, bonds, gov-ernment securities, certifi-cates of deposit (CDs) and so on. While diversifica-tion can’t guarantee a profit or protect against loss, it can help reduce the effects of volatility on your portfolio.
Maintain a cash cush-ion. During your retirement years, you may face unex-pected expenses, just as you did when you were work-ing. To help pay for these expenses without being forced to dip into your long-term investments, try to maintain a “cash cushion” that’s sufficient to cover six to 12 months’ worth of liv-ing expenses.
Limit withdrawals from your investments. To keep your investment portfolio intact for as long as possible, set limits on your annual withdrawals. Your with-drawal rate should be based on a variety of factors — age at retirement, other sources of income, lifestyle choices, etc. A financial advisor can help you calculate a with-drawal rate that makes sense for your situation.
Delay your generosi-ty. It can be tempting to provide for your grandchil-dren — and perhaps even
your grown children — as soon as you can. But you need to balance this impulse with the financial challenges that two or three decades of retirement can bring. It’s not being “selfish” to take care of yourself first — in fact, by doing everything possible to remain financially inde-pendent, you will be helping your family in the long run.
Don’t delay creating your estate plan. If you are com-mitted to leaving a generous legacy for your grandchil-dren, you need a comprehen-sive estate plan. And it’s best to create this plan as soon as possible, while you are men-tally and physically healthy. You may never become incapacitated, of course, but the future is not ours to see. In addition to starting early with your estate plan, you’ll need to assemble the right team, including your finan-cial advisor, legal profes-sional and tax expert.
You might enjoy receiv-ing attention on National Grandparents Day. But you’ll get even great-er pleasure out of knowing that you’re maximizing your efforts to leave the type of legacy you want for your grandchildren — while still enjoying the retirement life-style you desire.

hours as the protests wore on, and they, too, were happy to be back on the schedule, work-ing for a company they love and believe in.
Outside the Tilton store, employee protest signs of the past five weeks were quickly re-placed overnight with posters thanking cus-tomers for their loyalty.
“We wouldn’t have been able to do this with-out our customers,” one employee said.
“Welcome back!” could be heard time and time again as custom-er service representa-tives, cashiers and more greeted the hordes of shoppers heading for the newly restocked shelves.
“We had crews in here stocking the shelves up again at 6:30 Thursday morning, and people were waiting at the door for us to open at 7,” said Store Director Michael LeClair. “It’s time to get back to work. We’ve got fresh seafood and pro-duce again, and it’s busi-ness as usual, like noth-ing ever happened.”
LeClair was greet-ed by many customers as he made his way through the aisles, each expressing how happy they were to have the store up and running again. Many added that they were proud of the way in which Market Basket employees unit-ed in their support for someone they believed in — their boss.
“Congratulations, and thank you. What you all did took a lot of guts. It’s too bad there’s not more out there like you,” said one custom-er as he shook LeClair’s hand.
For Michael McGin-ley of Gilford, news of the purchase by “Artie T.” was something he
has long awaited, too. His company, McGinley Development, Inc., has been in discussions for more than a year to bring Market Basket to Plym-outh’s Riverside Land-ing on Tenney Mountain Highway. The DeMou-las family feud put any agreement on hold, but with a resolution in the
works, McGinley now looks to move forward with those plans.
“I continue to commu-nicate with them, and my hope is that Plym-outh will soon get a re-newed look for the place-ment of a new Market Basket store in the very near future,” McGinley said.

outcome.“The board was very
impressed with how they did in the process, and we’re very proud of them both,” said Cormi-er.
On hand to pin a new badge on their husbands were Destiny Buffing-ton and Carolyn Henry, while family, friends and fellow officers looked on.
Cormier then pre-sented special awards to
not only a few of the offi-cers on his department, but one officer from the Northfield Police De-partment as well.
“Once a year, I like to recognize those who go above and beyond in their service. I think it’s important to recognize them, and even though I know they don’t want a pat on the back, they’re going to get it,” he said with a smile.
On the afternoon of Dec. 26, 2013, Patrolman Abe Gilman was called upon to investigate re-ports of a suspicious male dressed in black and walking through yards in a Tilton neigh-borhood. Cormier said Gilman took the initia-tive to follow the tracks which led to a house that had been broken into. There a suspect was found hiding beneath
the bed and his arrest brought that as well as other burglary cases in the area to a close.
Also recognized were Patrolman Richard Ort of the Tilton Police and Northfield Officer Adam Seligman who worked together after a person made a threat to commit suicide at Chili’s restau-rant. The person’s ad-dress was not known but the threat was very real and, working together, the two officers were able to track her down.
“They located her in Northfield, and we were told she wouldn’t have made it if they hadn’t found her,” said Cormi-er.
Officer Jeremiah Trott was also congrat-ulated for his outstand-ing service to the Town
of Tilton, which has led to 187 criminal investi-gations, 233 arrests and 254 prisoners booked for crimes in the communi-ty.
“He’s one of the hard-est chargers we have, and he goes nonstop. He does so much work in an eight hour shift, it’s mind boggling,” Cormi-er said.
While the chief said all his officers work in-credibly hard day in and day out, the final award of the night went to Offi-cer Jesse Renauld.
Cormier said that while Renauld was off duty and dining at a Con-cord restaurant on Aug, 5, a man began to choke. As employees raced to dial 9-1-1, Renauld per-formed the Heimlich Procedure on the man
and was able to clear his airway before medics could arrive.
“For your quick ac-tions that night, I would like to present you with the department’s Life Saving Award,” Cormi-er said.
On hand to see Re-nauld receive the award was the victim, Paul Smith, who is a member of the Manchester Fire and EMS.
In addition to family members, Chief John Raffaelly and members of the Northfield Police Department, an officer from the Sanbornton Po-lice and a representative of the New Hampshire State Police also attend-ed the ceremony to con-gratulate their fellow officers.
jewelry, traditional cos-tumes, books, art work, clothing and all sorts of artistic trinkets.
There were also class-es and crafts on both days for children to en-joy and a community meal that was held each night.
But, the steady beat of the drums from the cen-ter of the Arbor was the biggest draw all week-end long.
“This year, we scaled back to just one group, Four Wind Drums, who have been very loyal to us over the years. They do a fabulous job,” said LIHA president Jim Knight.
From elders to young adults, teen to tots, those who have been raised in the ways of the Indian culture danced both day and night, pausing peri-odically for special cere-
monies and meals. Twice each day, the
Grand Entry took place, when elders, veter-ans and police officers were honored. There were also other dances throughout the week-end, like a special Jin-gle Dance, Shawl Dance and a Medicine Dance, each of which were done with special regalia and meaning.
This year’s Head Dancer was Ron “Little Cloud” of Somersworth.
“He came here last year for the first time, and led the little kids’ celebration. We were so impressed that we asked him to come back this year to head up the danc-ing under the Arbor,” said Knight.
“Little Cloud” is of Micmac heritage, and was both pleased and surprised to have been
selected as Head Danc-er. He was dressed from head to toe in Native American regalia. His chest plate was made of traditional bone and beading, his suede moc-casins were enhanced with bells and fur, his fan was made of turkey feathers and even his face paint held meaning.
“Indians painted their face to intimidate people,” he explained. “The black represents war and the white rep-resents peace.”
Children of all ages take part in many of the dances and 10-year-old Gunner of Franklin was excited that he had been acknowledged on a higher level this year. His grandmother Joan, an Abenaki from San-bornton, said Gunner has grown a lot and was finally ready to take on
the responsibilities asso-ciated with the ceremo-nies.
“He has a bear spir-it, and they used to call him ‘Little Bear’ when he was younger, but now he’s ‘Cub,’” she said. “He’s been coming here all his life and he’s ready to dance.”
Gunner’s friends Kol-by and Corey of Laconia danced with him around the Arbor and said they all look forward to the Pow Wow each Labor Day.
“It feels great to be here. It’s part of our reli-gion,” said Kolby.
Corey said they all stayed in tipis for the weekend and felt a real connection with nature and their heritage but Gunner said he found an even deeper meaning to the experience.
“For me, being here
makes me feel connected to my dad who lives in Colorado,” he said.
Knight said atten-dance was a bit lower this year but the week-end was still another huge success with more vendors than ever and a lot of camaraderie amongst all who took part.
Bill Laflamme of LIHA said the organi-zation also works close-
ly with local scouting groups. He said the Won-alancet Cub Scouts re-cently came to the Dulac Land Trust for a gather-ing and in 2016 LIHA will host the district’s scout-ing jamboree.
Anyone who would like to book a scouting event at the Sanbornton location is asked to con-tact LIHA through their Web site, www.lihanh.org.

The Lindsey Frank Memorial Motorcycle Ride, which took place on Saturday, Aug. 23, draws hundreds of motorcycle enthusiasts to Hart’s Turkey Farm Restaurant, right next to Laconia Harley-Davidson. As part of the ride, Laconia Harley-Davidson also celebrated its annual charity raffle by presenting the Lake Winnipesaukee Sailing Association in Gilford and David’s House in Lebanon with $15,000 each.

Laconia Harley-Davidson raises $30,000 for Lake Winnipesaukee Sailing Association & David’s House
MEREDITH — Thanks to Laconia Har-ley-Davidson’s Street™ 750 Charity Raffle, two lucky New Hampshire nonprofits received $15,000 each in critical funding and two lucky New Hampshire motor-cyclists each received one of Harley-David-son’s hottest new bikes. In raising $30,000 during the raffle, Laconia Har-ley-Davidson delivered $15,000 each to the Lake Winnipesaukee Sailing Association (LWSA) in Gilford and David’s House in Lebanon. The LWSA is developing an adaptive sailing pro-gram to allow those with mental and physi-cal disabilities to enjoy sailing’s therapeutic benefits. David’s House serves as a no-cost home away from home for families with children receiving treatment at Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock (CHaD). Laconia Har-ley-Davidson has raised $185,000 in the past six years in support of a number of New Hamp-shire nonprofits.
This year marks the first time Laconia Har-ley-Davidson has donat-ed two motorcycles for its charity raffle. Raffle winners Arthur Brungot of Kingston, and Michael Boulanger, of Meredith, each won new Har-ley-Davidson Street™ 750 motorcycles – Har-ley’s much-anticipated new motorcycle featur-ing agile handling and blacked-out Harley-Da-vidson custom style. The
Laconia Harley-David-son charity raffle has previously benefited the Loon Preservation Soci-ety, the New Hampshire Food Bank, The Winni-pesaukee Playhouse and the Boys & Girls Club of the Lakes Region.
“We kicked off Laco-nia Motorcycle Week in style this year by provid-ing riders with the first chance in New England to get a look at the brand new Street™ 750 motor-cycle, while at the same time making an impact in our community,” said Anne Deli, owner of Laconia Harley-Da-vidson. “We are thrilled to be able to deliver much-needed funding for these two fantastic nonprofits, who are both doing such meaningful work helping those in need. And we are equal-ly pleased to be able to
hand over two of Har-ley-Davidson’s hottest new motorcycles to our two lucky winners.”
Gov. Maggie Hassan helped kick-start Laco-nia Motorcycle Week and the Street 750 Char-ity Raffle by purchasing the first of 3,000 raffle tickets at a June State House event flanked by a dozen Harley riders and nonprofit volunteers.
At the June event, Governor Hassan stat-ed, “New Hampshire’s motorcycle industry is critical to our economy and our vibrant commu-nities, attracting thou-sands of visitors to our state, creating jobs and making a difference in people’s lives. I thank Laconia Harley-David-son for their efforts to spur economic develop-ment and commitment to Granite State nonprof-
its, including David’s House and the Lake Winnipesaukee Sailing Association that provide outstanding services to the communities that they serve.”
Raffle beneficiariesThe LWSA has spent
the past three decades working to make sure anyone who wants to learn to sail can do just that. Recently they have partnered with Sail to Prevail, a national adap-tive sailing leader, to de-velop its own adaptive sailing program. This first-of-its-kind program in New Hampshire will help people with a va-riety of disabilities - in-cluding injured veter-ans, those with autism and the developmentally disabled - experience the
therapeutic benefits and the joy of sailing. The LWSA runs its programs out of a newly-purchased waterfront facility in Gilford and it relies al-most entirely upon tax deductible donations from supporters. The specialized, adaptive boats for the program range in cost of $50,000 - $60,000 each. Ultimately, the LWSA, which teach-es about 150 kids to sail each summer, is aiming to compile a fleet of four or five specially outfitted boats.
“For the LWSA, the opportunity to partici-pate in the 2014 Laconia Harley-Davidson char-ity raffle has evolved into a real partnership between unique enti-ties,” said Tom Mullen, President of the Lake Winnipesaukee Sailing Association. “Without benefactors like Laco-nia Harley-Davidson, we could never bring our unique programming to the folks that need our services. Laconia Harley-Davidson recog-nizes this fact and they consistently give back to the people of New Hamp-shire in many important ways. We are proud to be associated with this out-standing business.”
David’s House (www.davids-house.org) is a Lebanon-based nonprof-it that has been provid-ing all the comforts of home for families with children undergoing treatment at CHaD since
1986, serving more than 13,000 families as guests. There is no time limit on a family’s stay, as most families do not know when they can go home.
The organization has forged a unique bond with Laconia Harley-Da-vidson. David’s House hosts the annual Lindsey Frank Memorial Motor-cycle Ride, which kicked off from Hart’s Turkey Farm Restaurant in Meredith—right next to Laconia Harley-David-son—to David’s House on Saturday August 22nd. The impact of the Memorial Motorcycle Ride, along with the particularly meaningful service David’s House provides, inspired this year’s partnership.
“The funds raised from the Laconia Har-ley-Davidson charity raffle are coming to us at a critical time,” said Jaye Olmstead, Devel-opment Director at Da-vid’s House. “We just completed our first full year of operating 20 bed-rooms after opening four additional bedrooms last summer. As expected, our expenses rose with our occupancy. This fundraiser is providing needed resources that will allow us to continue offering a no-cost home-away-from-home for more families than ever before who are going through incredibly chal-lenging times.”

budgets that would have increased the amounts assessed the towns, and ultimately the taxpay-ers, by nine percent in 2013 and eight percent in 2014. The Delegation, with Dick playing a strong role, had to prior-itize competing budget items to keep the hit on the taxpayers to a more reasonable amount.
Likewise, Dick’s op-ponent and his fellow Commissioners pro-posed a $42 million re-
placement of the County Correction Facility. In spite of much criticism of greatly exceeding re-quired standards result-ing in the huge cost, the Commissioners have declined to reduce the scope, though Dick’s op-ponent now says his pro-posal will come in at $30-$35 million. Many other similar facilities that meet all required stan-dards have been built at far less cost. Dick has looked at this extensive-
ly, and I look forward to a much more realistic and taxpayer friendly solution when Dick be-comes a Commissioner.
Republican voters in Belmont, Tilton, Gil-manton, and Barnstead are urged to turn out on Sept. 9 and vote for Dick Burchell and keep fiscal soundness in Belknap County.

Brenda Ganong pres-ents a check in the amount of $10,000 to LRGHealthcare Vice President of Clinical Services Marge Kerns. Hundreds of supporters took part in the 2014 Brenda’s Ride.

LACONIA — Six-teen-year breast cancer survivor Brenda Ga-nong recently hosted the 12th Annual Bren-da’s Ride with Friends: Fighting Cancer One Mile at a Time. The day was a huge success, rais-ing $10,000 to benefit On-cology patients at Lakes Region General Hospi-tal.
Brenda’s Ride started in 2003 with just 35 par-ticipants and has con-tinued to grow over the years. Nearly a hundred motorcycles convened at the Weirs Beach Lob-ster Pound the morning of Aug. 2, setting off for a beautiful ride to Wa-terville Valley. Lead by Alton and Gilford Police Department volunteers, the convoy arrived back at the Lobster Pound
mid-day for a cookout, raffles, and live music courtesy of Matt Langley and band AXIS.
“We were thrilled with the great support from our generous spon-sors, all of the bikers who came for this year’s ride, and those friends who stopped by for the cookout and afternoon festivities. I am also in-credibly thankful to the Lobster Pound and our amazing team of volun-teers,” explains event founder/planner Brenda Ganong. “Brenda’s Ride continues to thrive, and knowing that we’re help-ing patients right here in our own community is very rewarding.”
Proceeds from Bren-da’s Ride are used to as-sist Oncology patients in a number of ways,
to help lighten the fi-nancial burden during an already very tough time. Funds have been designated to: help with co-pays for ports (neces-sary to be put in so they can receive their drugs); assist with co-pays for prosthetics; and to pur-chase gas cards and cab vouchers to get patients to appointments. In one case a recliner was pur-chased for one terminal-ly-ill patient who could no longer sleep in a bed.
Brenda’s Ride wel-comed several high-lev-el supporters including $1,000 Gold Sponsor Winner’s Circle Auto Sales; $500 Silver Spon-sors Brady Companies, Electrical Concepts, Fire & Iron Station 138, Loo-ney Bin, Nick, Roche Realty, and The Tamposi
Family. In-kind donors included the band AXIS, Binnie Media, Body Covers, Crown Design, D’Andrea Foods, Gilbert Block, Great Eastern Radio, Laconia Har-ley-Davidson, Northeast Communications, Rein-hart-Agar (Brad Pres-ton), South Shore Quali-ty Meats, Tylergraphics, Weirs Beach Lobster Pound, 1350AM Radio, and our local police de-partments (Alton & Gil-ford). Support also came from Shirt Sponsors, auction donations, and many businesses gener-ously donated goods and
services to the event.“The staff and pa-
tients at LRGHealthcare are deeply grateful to Brenda and John Ga-nong and all of their friends and family who continue to make each Brenda’s Ride such a success,” states LRG-Healthcare Vice Presi-dent of Clinical Services Marge Kerns.
“The folks at the Lob-ster Pound always go above and beyond for this event. Brenda has the most bighearted friends and LRGHealth-care is very fortunate to be the beneficiary and a
part of this great day,” says Kerns.
LRGHealthcare is a not-for-profit health-care charitable trust representing Lakes Region General Hospi-tal, Franklin Regional Hospital, and affiliated medical providers. LRG-Healthcare’s mission is to provide quality, com-passionate care and to strengthen the well-be-ing of our community.

The new classBears turn to fresh faces
Senior setter Erica Doubleday (9) is one of just five returning players for the Bears as they set to open their Division III regular season schedule Friday night.
BY JEFF LAJOIE
TILTON – It was a remarkable era for the Winnisquam Regional High School volleyball team. The senior class that graduated this past spring compiled an in-credible 69-10 record in four years, winning two state championships and a state runner-up in that span.
Put with the loss of eight seniors, including standouts like Hannah Chapin and Carissa Archibald, this year's Bears lineup will have a decidedly different look than the familiar squads of years past.
“It's a very big chang-ing of the guard,” admit-ted Winnisquam head coach Mike Livernois, whose team lost in the Division III state cham-pionship match to Nute last season. “But I'm very optimistic at this point. I like the team a lot and they've come to-gether well so far.”
Winnisquam does re-turn five players from last year's runner-up squad. Senior co-cap-tains Erica Doubleday (setter) and Becky Rapo-za (outside hitter) will be anchors in the lineup, and Livernois is count-ing on the duo to help set the tone.
“Erica I think got a lot of valuable experience last year,” said Liver-nois of Doubleday, who totaled an impressive 506 assists as the start-ing setter last season. “She had to step into the spot that Elyssa Clair-mont left and she man-aged to put a lot of balls up last year that got hit. Now we're not quite as experienced at the hit-ting spot but I thought Erica had a really nice season stepping in for someone who had big shoes to fill. She'll have to be a catalyst and a big leader for us.
“Becky did a lot of work over the summer and I think she's going to surprise people,” Liv-ernois continued. “She's hitting the ball really well.”
The junior trio of Meghan LaBelle (defen-sive specialist), Jaila Re-millard (outside hitter) and Marissa DeBlasie (outside hitter) round out the returning core, and all three should ex-pect to see their roles beefed up this fall.
“I think we'll be better than people think by the time the season is done,” said Livernois. “We're going to have some growing pains but we're a very fast and very ath-
Despite graduation losses, Raiders aim big
letic team. We're going to do some things dif-ferently because of that. Someone like Jaila Re-millard has a chance to
be a fantastic offensive and defensive player. She has a chance at five foot 10 to alter a game at the net.”
Junior Dakota Aus-tin will figure right into the lineup at weakside hitter while classmate Kaylyn Dion will play
substantial minutes as a defensive specialist. Fellow junior Lindsay Raymond will also work her way into the outside hitter mix, while Ma-cayla Skeats rounds out the junior newcomer class. Sophomore Nicole Matcheski is also new to the varsity squad.
“Even though I've only got five returning players, three of those new players – Dakota, Kaylyn and Lindsay – in most years would've played as sophomores,” said Livernois. “We had so many seniors last year that it didn't make sense to have them up and sit on the bench. They're pretty experi-enced, and they're do-ing a nice job. We are a little more experienced than people might think because we have people who have played a lot of volleyball.”
Livernois pointed to the success of the JV team, which finished 15-1 last year and won the JV tournament at year's end.
The regular season is slated to kick off on Friday night with a road trip to Hillsboro-Deer-ing before Moultonbor-ough Academy comes to Tilton for the home opener on Sept. 8.
Senior right side hitter Louisa Bergeron leads a returning offensive attack for the Raiders.
BY JEFF LAJOIE
BELMONT – It was a magical year for the Belmont High School volleyball team in 2013. The Red Raiders jumped out to a fantastic start, finding themselves atop the Division III standings for awhile in September. Come playoff time, Bel-mont knocked off Farm-ington in the first round before being edged by Sunapee in the quarter-finals to finish the year with a sterling 12-6 over-all mark.
Things certainly have a different look on the floor this year however, as five seniors were lost to graduation, including 1,000 assist setter Megan Bailey and 500 dig libero Jessie Bergeron.
“It's definitely going to be different in the fact that some of these kids are very young,” said
second-year head coach Melissa Miner. “We'll have some new players put into that first string role. Having said that, I see such greatness and hard work from them that they're stepping up to the plate and they de-serve these spots. I felt like last year we were really strong but we still had a lot of unfinished work. Me being a new coach last year, now this group has had me for one year and they know the changes I've made and we can really work on those. That familiarity is going to help us in the long run.”
Despite losing five seniors, this year's Bel-mont roster also has five seniors, and all saw time on the varsity last sea-son. The back row will feature libero Alex Lugar and defensive specialist Jackelyn Robarge, as the
pair will look to continue Belmont's strong history of serve receive.
“It's hard to replace your libero but Alex Lu-gar is doing a really good job taking over that role,” explained Miner. “Her passing is amazing, she moves to the ball and her serve is a bullet. I'd like her to take a little more control of that back row but other than that, she's going to be one of our stronger players, espe-cially in serve receive.”
Senior right side hit-ter Louisa Bergeron headlines an offensive unit that should be solid, with outside hitter Shan-non Conway and middle hitter Shea Callahan also back as seniors. Junior Andreya Murphy (out-side hitter) is also back on the squad.
“Louisa Bergeron has gotten even better and she's stepping up into that right side role so I expect a lot from her,” Miner explained. “Shan-non has embraced her role and she's a much stronger hitter this year in the fact that she's re-ally going for it this year
and she's crushing the ball.”
The Raiders have four sophomores on the varsi-ty team, as Emily LaFlam (setter), Shannon Davies (middle hitter), Saman-tha Lugar (defensive specialist) and Madison Lacharite (outside hitter) will all look to contribute right away. LaFlam will step into Bailey's slot as the team's starting set-ter, while Davies has also impressed in the middle and should contribute right away.
“I saw something in (LaFlame) last year as a freshman... she had those setter hands,” Miner said. “She's progressing. She's very strong, she can get the ball wher-ever she wants it to go. She still has some more development to be at the level that Megan was at but she's absolutely on her way there.
“Shannon Davies blew us away with what we saw last year,” the coach continued. “She can crush the ball and she's also a good passer and will contribute in serve receive which is unusual
for a middle hitter.”Freshman setter Mer-
ri Joy Dahlberg rounds out the roster for Bel-mont as the lone member of her class on the team.
“A lot of these kids have great potential,”
began Miner. “If we can put it all together then I expect great things from them.”
Belmont is scheduled to open its regular sea-son run on Friday night against Farmington.
Drouin, Raiders open new seasonBY JEFF LAJOIE
BELMONT – Behind the lead of junior Caleb Drouin, the Belmont High School golf team returns its entire line-up from last season this fall, as the Red Raiders will look for that varsi-ty experience and con-sistency to help trans-late into victories and a trip to the Division III state championship in October.
“We're going into the season with basi-
cally the same crew as last year so talent-wise we're looking good,” said BHS head coach Kevin Charleston, whose team was slated to kick off the regular season with a match on Sept. 2. “Compared to last year, we're a better team.”
Drouin was the team's number one player last year as a sophomore and will re-turn to that slot, as he shot an 81 at the state championship and ad-
vanced to the second day of competition as a result.
“He basically spent all summer working out and playing gold so his game is pretty sharp,” said Charleston of Drouin. “He'll defi-nitely be our number one.”
Behind Drouin, sophomore Nicole An-tonucci and senior Brandon Pearl will like-ly provide the second and third scoring per-formances. Antonuc-
ci played in the girls' state championship as a freshman, and her game got markedly bet-ter as the season wore on. Pearl is a steady veteran who has played in multiple state cham-pionship tournaments.
“Nicole played very well during preseason and at the end of last year, she was shooting in the low 40s a cou-ple of times,” began Charleston. “Playing in

the girls' state tourna-ment last year I think really sparked some-thing in her and she's super motivated.”
Junior Mike San-born also returns and is likely next in line for the Raiders, while soph-omore Trevor Hunt and freshman Wyatt Paquin round out the six-member squad. Teams are able to trot out seven players for a match with the top four scores counting.
“If one of our top four has a bad day, hopeful-ly those two guys can fill in and post a score that we need,” Charles-ton said.
Belmont posted an 8-12 overall record during the regular sea-son, just missing out on grabbing one of the top 12 slots in D-III to qual-ify for the state tourney as a team. The Raiders were able to send Drou-in and Pearl as individ-ual players.
“I would think it's

pretty reasonable to try and qualify for the state tournament as a team,” the coach explained.
The D-III state cham-pionship is slated to be played at Waukewan Golf Club in Meredith, and the event will take place just three days after the annual In-ter-Lakes Classic sta-bleford scoring tourney is also held at Wauke-wan. The round should be a good tune-up for the Raiders, though Charleston said most of his kids have expe-rience playing at the club.
Belmont will once again play its home matches at Canterbury Woods Country Club.
Expectations high for hockey Bears
Senior midfielder Erin McNamara returns for Winnisquam after earning All-State Second Team status last season.
BY JEFF LAJOIE
TILTON – A promis-ing core returns for the Winnisquam Regional High School field hockey team this fall, as fourth-year head coach Cherie Snow's team lost some key contributors but will still have plenty of varsi-ty experience back as the Bears were slated to open their Division III sched-ule earlier this week.
“I have a lot of return-ing players with strong skills and talent,” said Snow, whose team was scheduled to open up with Gilford on Sept. 2 be-fore playing White Moun-tains this Friday. “I also have a good sophomore group as well as strong freshmen. I am looking at the freshmen to step in and fill some big shoes.”
Winnisquam finished
an impressive 10-4-2 last year, earning the seventh seed in the Division III playoffs and knocking off Laconia (3-0) in the pre-liminary round to earn a shot at rival Gilford in the quarters. But a road tilt saw the Bears suffer a 3-0 defeat, sending the Golden Eagles into the Fi-nal Four for the first time in 15 years.
The Bears will certain-ly have a few holes to fill, as All-State First Team selections Kendra Lo-nergan (goalkeeper) and Rachel Willcutt (defense) both graduated. Loner-gan earned a selection to the Twin State team this summer, and she was a multi-year starter be-tween the pipes for Win-nisquam. Willcutt was the anchor of the defense, and her presence in the back will also be sorely
missed.Winnisquam does
have a solid senior class returning this fall how-ever, led by midfielder Erin McNamara. The speedy McNamara was an All-State Second Team selection in 2013, and she also earned All-State honors as a sophomore in 2012. Classmate Alys-sa Clogston (back) also returns, while senior for-wards Mackenzie Byers and Haley Poirier round out the Class of 2015. Ju-nior Madison Langan is the lone member of her class, and she returns to the squad as a midfielder and back.
The sophomore class is quite large, with sever-al members making key contributions as fresh-men a season ago. For-ward Lauren Bolstridge played big minutes last
year and she returns, while Erin Atherton (for-ward), Cora Kelly (mid-field), Samantha Wood (back), Molly Tinker (midfield/forward), Jen-na Roy (back) and Haley Milton (goalkeeper) com-plete the group.
Just like last year, Snow will have a strong group of freshmen at her disposal, as Makenzie Snow (back/midfield), Emily Decormier (mid-field), Hallie McNamara (midfield), Cailey Clogston (back) and Riley Toupin (goalkeeper) are all on the varsity roster.
“Overall the team will be strong and very competitive,” predicated Snow. “We are looking forward to a competitive and challenging season. Our goal this year is to make it to the Final Four.”

Spike in numbers key for golf Bears
Winnisquam senior Dan McCall will look to help pace the Bears on the links of Den Brae this season.
BY JEFF LAJOIE
TILTON – After a down year num-bers-wise, things have bounced back for the Winnisquam Regional High School golf team. Fourth-year head coach John Larsen has double digit players to work with, which has in turn made competition for playing time much more interesting during the preseason.
“It makes a huge dif-ference from a team standpoint,” said Larsen of the added numbers. “As with any sport, as I told the kids, it provides us with the ability to have competition with-in the team. If we have five kids playing on a regular basis and the rest of the kids battling for that sixth spot, that's fine with me.”
The Bears will have a trio of seniors to rely on at the top of the lineup, as Marshall Bordeau, Dan McCall and Ri-ley Campbell make up the Class of 2015 on the squad. Campbell was one of two players from Winnisquam who com-peted at last year's state championship tourna-ment, with departed se-nior Jordan Dahl post-ing a top 10 finish before he graduated. Both Bor-deau and McCall return
to the team after not playing last season.
“Having those guys back... just the leader-ship and having guys who have played before and know what's going on out there,” said Lars-en.
Junior Brandon Bor-by is the lone member of his class, while soph-omore David Bolstridge returns and has im-pressed during the early going. Classmate Josh Shevlin also returns after playing his fresh-man year.
“David Bolstridge mustn't have put the clubs down all summer long because his drives are straight and he's the most relaxed kid out
there,” Larsen lauded.Four freshmen are
also on the roster, as Thomas Trowsdale, Chris Hanson, April Rivers and Josh Me-dynski round out the Bears.
Winnisquam will play its home matches at Den Brae Golf Course in Sanbornton this fall, moving from former home Lochmere.
“Den Brae's a good course, I think it's un-derrated,” said Larsen. “Because it's a nine-hole course, I think people push it to the side. But for us, some of the kids are members there and (GM) Gordon (Craig) and his staff treat the kids really, really well.”
