BY DONNA RHODES [email protected] TILTON — The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has gone viral on social media this summer, so when Sean Clark, a stock clerk at New Hamp- shire Veterans’ Home, received the challenge, he decided to ramp things up to include his co-workers, many of whom came out in sup- port of the cause. The Ice Bucket Chal- lenge calls on people to dump a bucket of ice water over their heads and video tape it for so- cial media sites. In doing so, they then challenge three of their friends to do the same within 24 hours or donate $100 to ALS research. Most do both the ice bucket and also make a donation. Since the challenge hit the Internet this sum- mer, donations to ALS have spiked consider- ably, raising more than $13 million already for the foundation and their teams of scientists who are searching for a cure. “When my friend Kyle called me out on Facebook, I decided to call on my friends from work to get some dona- tions together and join me. It happened fast — we had only 24 hours to do it,” Clark said. In all, more than a dozen employees of NHVH stepped up to the plate last Friday af- ternoon, making dona- tions as well as allowing buckets of icy water to be dumped over their heads to draw attention to ALS. Among those were IT Support Technician Kris Hillson, House- keeping Supervisor Lin- da LaDuke, Mechanic Foreman Jason Trefrey, Facilities Engineer Jon Bossey, members of their departments, and Commandant Margaret “Peggy” LaBrecque. LaBrecque added to the challenge by decree- ing that whoever raised the most money for ALS would get to dump the bucket over her head. While Hillson raised the most in individual donations from employ- ees, the honor of soaking the commandant was passed to Gilford resi- dents Paula Bertholdt and her husband Bill, who currently resides at NHVH. Before the challenge took place, the couple had matched Hill- son’s $100 donation. “We wanted to do something and we like to support people helping people, as they do here each and every day. My husband’s in a wonder- ful place right now so we pitched in,” said Paula. Bill, who is Vice Pres- ident of the Residents Council, said he chipped in $60 and his wife added another $40 as her part of their joint contribution. “My wife and I kicked in for the pleasure of soaking the Comman- dant. She’s quite a lady,” he said with a smile. Before the Bertholdts doused her though, LaBrecque got to chal- lenge others to do the same for ALS. “We call out Golden Crest Nursing Home, the Merrimack County Nursing Home and the Tilton and Northfield fire and police depart- ments,” she declared. With residents gath- ered in the central court- yard to watch, a count down was held and then icy torrents of water took the breath away from all who volunteered for the challenge. ALS was first discov- ered in 1869 by a French scientist, but it was not until 1939, when famed baseball player Lou Gehrig was diagnosed with the disease, that it became known both na- tionally and internation- ally. Since that time other famous people, such as Hall of Fame pitcher Jim "Catfish" Hunter, Sen. Jacob Javits, actor Da- vid Niven and Sesame Street creator Jon Stone have also been stricken by the disease. Known as Amyo- trophic lateral sclerosis or, more commonly, Lou Gehrig’s Disease, ALS is a progressive neurode- generative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. In later stages of the disease it causes total paralysis and eventually death. Labrecque said none of the current residents at NHVH have been di- agnosed with ALS, but finding a cure for the dreaded disease is still important to all in the medical field and society as a whole. The Bertholdts weren’t done with their contributions for the day though. As Alice Brown, assistant to the commandant, totaled up the donations, she an- nounced they were just shy of $500. The couple then reached deeper in their pockets and came up with an additional donation to help Clark and his fellow employees reach that goal.

Summer reading program ends on a magic note in Sanbornton PHOTO BY DONNA RHODES Magician Greg McAdams of the Greg and Axel Magic Show holds up the Super Hero banner five-year-old Jacoby helped create during a special presentation for the Sanbornton Public Library’s summer reading program. BY DONNA RHODES [email protected] SANBORNTON — The Fizz Boom Read sum- mer reading program for children came to a mag- ical end last week when the Greg McAdams and his dog Axel visited the Sanbornton Public Li- brary for a little slight of hand and a whole lot of laughs. McAdams is a magi- cian who has traveled the state’s library circuit for many summers, enter- taining children and en- couraging them to read. His dog Axel, a Husky/ Pyranees mix that he res- cued from a shelter in Ar- kansas, now travels with him as part of the Greg and Axel Magic Show. In Sanbornton last week, McAdams was dressed in safari gear when he arrived for his magic show. He ex- plained to the boys and girls that he and Axel were also secret agents who were trying to find two bad book worms, brothers “Fizz” and “Boom.” At night the dastardly duo have been eating books and steal- ing library cards in an attempt to keep children from reading over the summer. Axel himself was a victim of the book worms when they stole his treasured library card. Before hunting for Axel’s card though, McAdams had a little fun with the crowd of more than 60 boys and girls. He brought out Axel’s favorite coloring book and asked the children to help him color the pictures inside by pull- ing the colors off their own clothing. They each whispered a color into their hands then threw them through the air to reach the book. After a few “mistakes” on McAd- am’s part, they were able to magically color all the pages. When they tried to pull their colors back through, their magic was a bit too strong, and they ended up erasing all the pictures completely. “Well, now I need you all to take an imaginary pencil in your hands, say the word ‘pictures’ and draw them back in,” McAdams told the audi- ence. Right before their eyes, all the drawings re- appeared. Two helpers were also selected from the crowd to perform another mag- ic trick. Five-year-olds Jacoby and Vanessa added four specially let- tered kerchiefs into a cloth bag. After tapping the bag with their magic wands, they were able to turn the letters H-E-R and O into a large super hero banner. Super Special Secret Agent Renaldo the Flea hopped off Axel’s head to perform a little magic, too, amazing boys and girls with his strength as he held up a piece of rope that was “more than a hundred times” bigger than himself. Besides the magic and laughs, McAdams brought along some of Axel’s favorite books and recommended them to all the boys and girls. Among the titles were the books in the Captain Underpants series, as well as “Detective Dino- saur,” “Spy School,” “If Dogs Could Talk,” and “Secret Agent Splat,” which is about a cat who solves a mystery at his house. “Axel says there’s no way a cat could ever be a secret agent like him though,” McAdams said.

Before the concert started, though, it was announced that a fundraising campaign is now underway to help replace the cedar shingled roof of the 21-year-old bandstand. BY DONNA RHODES [email protected] TILTON — As the Un- cle Steve Band rocked Is- land Park on the Tilton/ Northfield town line last Sunday night, the hun- dreds who enjoyed their bluesy rock tunes also showed their support for the free concert series by dropping money in a can- ister to help repair the bandstand’s leaking roof. “This (the Alan and Savina Memorial Band- stand) was built in 1993, and is really in need of some help,” said Allison Hartwell-Stewart, who heads up the concerts for her now deceased parents. “We’re hoping there will be an outpour- ing of support from the community to get this done.” Island Park lies di- rectly on the town line in the middle of the Winni- pesauke River, and was given to the towns of both Northfield and Til- ton by Charles E. Tilton in the late 1800’s. While accessible only from Main Street in Tilton, both communities share ownership and responsi- bilities for the property. Prior to last week’s concert, Hartwell-Stew- art approached select- men in both towns about the issue with the struc- ture and each board lent their support to her ef- forts to repair the roof.

Timberman Triathlon draws thousands to Gilford
A group of runners sing as they reach the finish line of the Timberman Triathlon.
BY ERIN PLUMMER
GILFORD — Athletes from across the globe gathered in Gilford for a weekend of physical challenges during the Timberman Triathlon.
Thousands of athletes and spectators descend-ed on Gilford for the weekend-long Timber-man events. The week-end kicked off on Satur-day with the Timberman Sprint competition. On Sunday, competitors then took part in the Iron-man 70.3 Timberman tri-athlon. Each competition began at Ellacoya State Park with courses that went through Gilford and further parts of the Lakes Region.
Race Co-Director Au-dra Tassone-Indeck said there were around 3,000 athletes participating in the weekend’s events, a number consistent with previous years.
On Saturday competi-tors took part in a three-tenths of a mile swim, a 15-mile bike ride, and a three-mile run.
On Sunday morning, athletes got on their marks for the Ironman 70.3 triathlon. Competi-tors did a 1.2 mile swim in Lake Winnipesaukee, rode their bikes 56 miles from Ellacoya down to Canterbury and back, then took part in a 13.1 mile run from Ellacoya to Smith Cove and back.
Tassone-Indeck said the weekend was incred-ible, commenting on the support of the commu-nities. She said the com-munities’ police and fire departments were great-ly supportive as was the state for allowing use of Ellacoya and Gunstock Mountain Resort for event and parking space.
“All the communities
are just wonderful to work with and we’re in-credibly thankful,” Tas-sone-Indeck said.
On Sunday, the 70.3 race started at 7 a.m. and the last finishers came in around 4 p.m. and the event ended with an awards ceremony.
The top female and male Pro finishers were both Australians.
The top finisher over-all was 34-year-old Leon Griffin, a native of Aus-tralia living in Boul-der, Colorado. Griffin completed the swim in 24 minutes, 38 seconds; the bike in two hours, 10 minutes, and 21 seconds; and the run in one hour, 16 minutes, 44 seconds. He had an overall finish of three hours, 43 min-utes, and 46 seconds.
This was Griffin’s third Ironman Timber-man race, the previous two years he came in sec-ond place.
“Third time’s a charm,” Griffin said during the awards cere-mony.
Griffin said had a flat tire during the bike race and did not expect to win. Tassone –Indeck said the projected first place win-ner Andy Potts then got a flat and ended up finish-ing fourth.
“I had a little bit of luck on my side,” Griffin said. “There was definite-ly an opportunity to grab the win and I did.”
Overall, Griffin said it was a great race.
“New Hampshire is such a beautiful spot,” Griffin said. “Great race, great organization over-all.”
He said in the past couple years, he has made some friends and connected with some sponsors from this race. He also thanked the vol-
unteers and everyone who helped out with the race.
“I’ll definitely be back for number four,” Griffin said. “I’ve got two sec-onds, maybe I’ll have two firsts.”
Igor Amarelli of Brazil was the overall second place finisher and the second place finisher in the men’s division.
Chris Leiferman of Boulder, Colo. was the third place finisher, Andy Potts of Brook-lyn, N.Y. took fourth place, Travis Hawkins of Brooklyn, N.Y. came in fifth, and Matthew Curbeau of Natick, Mass. came in sixth in men and seventh overall.
Melissa Hauschil-dt was the top female finisher and the sixth place finisher overall. The 31-year-old from Queensland completed the swim in 26 minutes, 41 seconds; the bike in two hours, 21 minutes, and two seconds and the run in one hour, 22 min-utes, and 39 seconds for a total finish time of four hours, 12 minutes, and 52 seconds.
Hauschildt said there was one moment when she was biking and was convinced she was at least in second place. Then she looked up and realized she was in first.
Hauschildt congratu-lated everyone who took part in the race and made it the success it was.
“The race wouldn’t go ahead without you guys,” Hauschildt said.
She also congratulated her fellow competitors.
“Congratulations to everyone who competed today, well done,” Haus-childt said.
The second place women’s finisher was
Linsey Corbin from Or-egon. Valentina Carval-lo of Argentina placed third, Amanda Stevens
of Oklahoma took fourth place, Dede Griesbauer of Boulder, Colo. came in fifth, and Kirsty Smith of
New York was sixth. The top three finishers

Special guest brings cool treats to Senior Center’s Music Night
Photo by Donna rhoDes
State Sen. Jeanie Forrester (right, center) dished out some hot fudge to go along with the ice cream and other toppings she brought to the Tilton Senior Center last week. Helping Forrester at the free ice cream social were Kylee and Jae-ann Rock of Tilton.
BY DONNA RHODES
TILTON — Music night at the Tilton Senior Center was even a bit sweeter than usual last Wednesday, when State Sen. Jeannie Forrester dropped in to host an ice cream social before the entertainment got un-
derway.This is Forrester’s
fourth summer of bring-ing free ice cream to se-nior centers throughout her district and she said there is nothing political about her visits.
“For me, these ice cream socials are simply a chance to talk to the
seniors in the district, whether it’s personal or something they’re con-cerned about. It’s great to spend some time with them and we can get to know each other a little better,” Forrester said.
As she and helpers Kylee and Jae-ann Rock scooped the ice cream, of-
fering hot fudge, whipped cream and some of the numerous toppings she brought to go along, peo-ple chatted casually with Forrester and thanked her for her generosity.
Besides Tilton, For-rester has already made stops in Plymouth and other towns in the north-ern area of State Senate District 2. She said she will next be heading to Bristol and a few other senior centers for more ice cream socials before the summer is over.
Over the weekend she also hosted her annual “Thank You” cookout at the Wickwas Lake Grange #292 in Meredith Center, where lunch was provided at no cost to those who attended.
“I just like doing
something nice for my constituents, and we have a great time at the cookouts,” Forrester said.
Tilton Senior Center hosts a Wednesday night cook out each week for a small donation. The din-
ners are open to seniors from all area towns and everyone is welcome to enjoy the music af-ter their meal. The se-nior center is located on Grange Road, just off Route 3 in the Lochmere district of Tilton.

sons of Doric-Centre Lodge #20 are continu-ing their public break-fasts and bake sales on the fourth Saturday of each month from 7 to 9:30 a.m. at the Masonic Building, located at 410 West Main St. (Route 3/11 West) in Tilton (where "The Ark" day care center is). Put it on your calendar and come socialize with friends each month.
This month's break-fast will be held on Sat-urday, Aug. 23. They serve a full breakfast,

open for public tours and information. For more information about the breakfasts or about the Masons, contact Woody Fogg at 524-8268.
Opinion
To the Editor:In the year 2012, the
state legislature passed legislation allowing vet-erans to have their vet-erans status indicated on their drivers license thus providing us with a photo I.D. proving our service to our country. A veterans photo I.D. is something that major
stores always require before they will provide a veterans discount.
Unfortunately, Home Depot and Lowe’s will not accept the new li-cense with honorable veteran’s status noted on the card for an every-day veterans discount at their stores. They only accept active, re-
tired, reserve I.D.’s and cards issued to veterans who have filed a med-ical claim against the V.A.
So what about all the other veterans who served, but do not meet the store’s criteria? The answer is sorry, no dis-count without the re-quired documentation!
Our New Hampshire driver’s license is not acceptable!
We and the State of New Hampshire should boycott both of these stores until they change their discrimi-natory policy!
What do you think?Bill WhalenSanbornton
To the Editor:I’m running to rep-
resent you in the legis-lature from Northfield and Franklin Ward 3. As I see my opponents’ campaign signs appear, I wonder what possible re-cord they think they can run on? A fair assess-ment of their voting re-cord shows that they’ve been on the wrong side of every major economic issue affecting our lives. The economy – and jobs – should have been Job #1 for our represen-tatives in Concord. It hasn’t been.
Last week, I wrote that the Democrats in Concord passed no bills that would help businesses. Of 130 bills passed last session, none improved the business climate. None made it easier for businesses to expand, create jobs, or
increase employment. There is one bill the
right legislature could pass next January that has proven to increase jobs and wages. It’s a bill the current crop of Democrats refuses to consider. My opponents are part of the problem.
States like New Hampshire that have seen stagnant job growth have also seen their young citizens leave to find good wages and good job opportunities in states that provide an attractive business climate. As a financial planner I am trained to look for long term trends. Examining the years 1990 - 2012, I see states that passed this legislation gained 42 per-cent in employment and states without it gained only 19 percent. Eight of the top ten states in job
growth had passed this legislation while 9 of the bottom 10 states did not.
During that same time, 35 states saw in-creases in labor income while 15 suffered income declines. Half of the states that saw increases in income had this leg-islation in place. Sixty percent of the states that saw declines did not have this legislation. A study that controlled for economic conditions compared states’ wages and found that states with this legislation averaged six percent higher wages. Another study focusing on eco-nomic growth found, on average, an 11 percent improvement in states with this legislation.
It’s clear to me that passing this bill is crit-ical to increasing jobs and increasing wages in
New Hampshire. While it’s not a silver bullet, it would put us on the path to regaining the New Hampshire Advantage. If we are going to grow our way out of the bad financial times we’ve been stuck in during the years the Democrats have controlled the state finances, passing this legislation is a necessary first step.
This key legislation is called Right To Work. But I call it “Good Wag-es, Good Jobs, and Good Sense.” My Democrat opponents have voted against it every time it’s been introduced. I prom-ise you that, if elected, I will vote “Yes.” I support good wages and good jobs. I will work for you to bring back the New Hampshire Advantage.

In May, when this deligthful buff colored cat arrived, she wasn’t feeling that great. Even though she has front paws that resemble oven mits, and she is a color most prospective adopt-ers gravitate towards, Mugsy wasn’t ready for adoption. Imagine our surprise when her med-ical workup revealed levels in her blood four times the norm! We started Mugsy on medi-cation and food to treat her thyroid condition and sent her to a foster home to help her recov-er.
Happily we can re-port, with special diet adhered to, Mugsy is
now cruising in the nor-mal range. Her outcome is the kind of ‘save’ that happens regularly at your local shelter here in Laconia. As long as Mugsy keeps to her diet, we feel she has every right to enjoy a second chance.
Could we assure her the top spot in your home- she deserves to be the one and only after all she has endured.

BY SEN. JEANIE FORRESTER
District 2
At the end of every legislative session, I begin my formal visit to each of the Select boards in the 27 towns in District 2. Even though I send out a written legisla-tive update to keep town officials informed as to what’s happening in Concord, it is important to make a per-sonal visit. This visit keeps me up-to-date on what’s going on in their community and gives them an oppor-tunity to ask me questions. From my smallest town of Ellsworth to my largest town of Meredith, Selectmen and constituents have always welcomed me and for that I am truly grateful.
A couple weeks ago, I visited the Sanbornton Select board, and among the issues we discussed was the re-cently passed legislation relative to flood control re-imbursement, which has a direct financial impact on Sanbornton.
As background, in 1957 the Merrimack River Val-ley Flood Control Compact was established between New Hampshire and Massachusetts in order to deal with the devastating impact of loss of life and property due to regular flooding downstream. The agreement was to build large dams along the Merrimack River watershed in order to control flood waters and protect property. This agreement involved 18 New Hampshire communities including four District 2 towns (Bristol, Hill, New Hampton, and Sanbornton).
In order to build these dams, land in towns that were needed for flood control was taken by the U.S. gov-ernment. In some communities, entire villages were flooded, cemeteries moved, and farms lost. Once it be-came government land, the towns lost the taxable rev-enue on the land forever. An agreement (the Compact mentioned above) was approved by New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and the U.S. government that spelled out how the communities would be compensated for the value of that lost land--Massachusetts would be re-sponsible for 70 percent and New Hampshire would be responsible for 30 percent. Per the agreement, the val-ue would be determined annually and New Hampshire would compensate the communities and then seek re-imbursement from Massachusetts for their 70 percent.
Years ago, Massachusetts stopped reimbursing us and we were not aggressive about getting reimbursed, but the state kept their commitment to the communi-ties by covering the lost tax revenue.
In FY 2012/13, the governor’s recommended budget funded only the state share (30 percent), which meant that the towns did not receive the 70 percent share that the state had historically paid.
Thanks to the initiative in the Senate, the next bud-get required the state to fully compensate the towns under the compact.
Also under the Senate’s initiative, the legislature passed a bill directing the New Hampshire Attorney General to aggressively pursue getting past funds owed from Massachusetts. The Attorney General was successful in negotiating a settlement on the arrearage owed by Massachusetts in the amount of $1,112,377, which was the “full and final payment of all asserted liabilities under the Compact for all years prior to and including FY 2012” which ended on June 30, 2012.
Now that New Hampshire was successful in getting the past due funds, we had to create legislation to get the money back to the towns. So, the next piece of Sen-ate-initiated legislation (SB370) called for the full reim-bursement to towns from the settlement monies. This would have made the towns whole for the two years in which only 30 percent of the money was provided for the lost land and tax revenue.
The bill passed the Senate and was promptly killed by the House Finance Committee. In an effort to hold true to our commitment and get these funds back to the communities, the Senate added the language of SB370 onto HB1282 (relative to prepaid contracts for home heating fuel). The House did not agree with the added language and the bill ended up in a committee of con-ference (a meeting where House and Senate members negotiate final language of the bill).

It’s not so very long now to the leaf-peeper paradeNORTH COUNTRY NOTEBOOK
It probably doesn’t hap-pen as much as you’d like, but from time to time, you have some extra disposable income. When this hap-pens, how should you use the funds? Assuming you have adequate emergency savings — typically, three to six months’ worth of liv-ing expenses — should you pay off debts, or fund your IRA or another investment account?
There’s no one “correct” answer — and the priority of these options may change, depending on your financial goals. However, your first step may be to consider what type of debt you’re thinking of paying down with your extra money. For example, if you have a consumer loan that charges a high rate of interest — and you can’t deduct the interest payments from your taxes — you might conclude that it’s a good idea to get rid of this loan as quickly as possible.
Still, if the loan is rela-tively small, and the pay-ments aren’t really imping-ing on your monthly cash flow that much, you might want to consider putting any extra money you have into an investment that has the
potential to offer longer-term benefits. For instance, you might decide to fully fund your IRA for the year before tackling minor debts. (In 2014, you can contribute up to $5,500 to a tradition-al or Roth IRA, or $6,500 if you’re 50 or older.)
When it comes to mak-ing extra mortgage pay-ments, however, the picture is more complicated. In the first place, mortgage interest is typically tax deductible, which makes your loan less “expensive.” Even beyond the issue of deductibility, you may instinctively feel that it’s best to whittle away your mortgage and build as much equity as possible in your home. But is that always a smart move?
Increasing your home equity is a goal of many homeowners — after all, the more equity you have in your home, the more cash you’ll get when you sell it. Yet, if your home’s value rises — which, admit-tedly, doesn’t always happen — you will still, in effect, be building equity without having to divert funds that could be placed elsewhere, such as in an investment. In this situation, it’s import-
ant to weigh your options. Do you want to lower your mortgage debts and possibly save on cumulative interest expenses? Or would you be better served to invest that money for potential growth or interest payments?
Here’s an additional con-sideration: If you tied up most of your money in home equity, you may well lose some flexibility and liquid-ity. If you were to fall ill or lose your job, could you get money out of your home if your emergency savings fund fell short? Possibly, in the form of a home equity line of credit or a second mortgage, but if you were not bringing in any income, a bank might not even approve such a loan — no matter how much equity you have in your house. You may more easily be able to sell stocks, bonds or other investment vehicles to gain access to needed cash.
Getting some extra money once in a while is a nice problem to have. Still, you won’t want to waste the opportunity — so, when choosing to pay down debts or put the money into invest-ments, think carefully.

What’s Smarter -- Paying Off Debts or Investing?
Photo by John harrigan
Soon scenes like this off Old Cherry Mountain Road in Carroll will offer a riot of color, but comparatively few people will ever see it.
This is a hard thing to have to remind anyone about, what with so many people wondering where summer went or wheth-er we even had one, but foliage season is nigh. The first kissing frost, for denizens of higher eleva-tions, is a matter of a cou-ple of weeks away, maybe sooner. It may even have happened already by the time this hits print.
The old wry joke about life in the northern half of New Hampshire is that it’s seven weeks of sum-mer and seven months of winter, which is about right, depending on your elevation. Come to think about it, a great deal in life depends on elevation, augmented by your state of mind. At elevation 1553, just shy of the 45th Parallel, I’ve already had a couple of early morn-ing brushes with frost — within a few degrees. And I’ve been running chill fires on and off all summer. This is where my state of mind comes in, which is, summed up, that it’s all part of the wonderful warp and woof of life.
Now, heading into September, it all begins heading down toward the narrow end of the funnel — all the gardening, all the working up of fire-
wood, all the bush-hog-ging and Christmas tree plantation trimming and mowing, all the getting the hay in and stalls and manure pits cleared and ready, all of the myriad other things that spell obtaining the fruits of summer’s labor and in the meantime becom-ing deadly serious about getting ready for winter. While we get ready to have fun at the various agricultural fairs around the region, we also think about whether it’s time to think about moving the firewood in or where we’re going to put this year’s snow.
Leaves are already turning on “stressed” hardwoods in the north-ernmost parts of the state — the diseased or dying. But even without that, it’s just about time. The “color line” begins in the highest regions of Pitts-burg and begins its inex-
orable creep south. When that creep begins is, well, just about any day now.
Although “foliage sea-son” is a very open-end-ed season, in most peo-ple’s minds it’s October. One of the many selling points for the Dixville Races, a half-marathon, relay races and fun-walk event to be run for the 38th year this coming September 27 (northrec.org or coolrunning.org), has always been that on race day the foliage often is at or near peak.
Every foliage season, I listen to the traffic re-ports and see the stories about traffic jams and long lines at gas stations and restaurants, and wonder why it happens.
There is so much of New Hampshire to see that it could absorb a hundred times the fall-fo-liage traffic volume with-out a shrug. It is simply a matter of getting off the
beaten track — or more to the point, knowing how to get off the beaten track.
Every fall, hundreds of thousands of people head north, lemming-like, on I-95 or I-93 or I-89 to see
the foliage. Some may, at the state’s tourism peo-ple’s oft-repeated advice, venture onto a few well-known (and well worn) side-roads, all known quantities with very well-known names. But
most venture not very much farther than that.
But there is so much more, such a vast terri-tory to see. How to reach the traveling public, and get the word out that the SEE NOTEBOOK, PAGE A11

TILTON — Edward J. Rose, 88, a resident of Tilton for most of his life died at his home in Tilton, Sunday, Aug. 10, 2014, with his family at his side.
Ed was born in East Boston, Mass., Jan. 16, 1926, son of Antho-ny and Lydia (Lucius) Rose. He attended paro-chial schools in Stone-ham, Mass. He left high school in 1943 to enlist in the Coast Guard.
Following his dis-charge, he moved to Tilton to attend Tilton School. He was em-ployed at the former Scott and Williams in Laconia, for 25 years, culminating in the posi-tion of production con-trol manager. He went on to work 14 years with the State of New Hamp-shire Department of Em-ployment Security. Ed was a longtime active member of the Ameri-can Legion, Post # 49 in Northfield, VFW Post # 1698 in Franklin and Franklin Lodge of Elks, BPOE 1280. He served on the Tilton-Northfield Fire Department and Rescue Squad for sever-al years, and was active coaching Little League for J. P. Stevens. He enjoyed woodworking, hunting, fishing and time spent with family and friends, often gath-ering at the cottage on Lake Winnisquam. For several years he was active with the Tilton 49’ers Drum and Bugle Corp. Following his re-tirement, Ed enjoyed an-
tique cars and spending time at Foxwoods. He attended several USS Leonard Wood reunions at many U. S. locations. Ed enjoyed football and watching games on TV…as long as his team was winning!
Ed served his coun-try with honor with the U. S. Coast Guard from 1943 to 1946, discharged as Radioman, 3rd Class. He was later called to active duty with the U. S. Navy during the Ko-rean War, serving for 10 months. He was the recipient of numerous medals and ribbons. Ed was very thankful he had the opportunity to have taken the Honor Flight to Washington, DC in October, 2013. He remembered his return to the United States as his ship sailed under the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco on VJ Day, hearing the thun-derous crowds scream-ing with joy. Ed was a longtime parishioner of St. Mary of the Assump-tion Church in Tilton, now part of St. Gabriel Parish.
In addition to his parents, Ed was prede-
ceased by his brothers, Lawrence and Joseph Rose, and sister, Marie King.
He leaves his wife of 65, years, Beverly J.

In conference, the House offered half the funds and would not budge—House members on the committee were willing to let all the flood control money go back into the general fund, thereby denying the towns the money they were owed. This was dis-appointing and frustrat-ing for all those Senators who worked so hard to get this money--money that is rightfully owed--back to the towns. With
the risk of the entire bill being killed, the Senate was forced to accept half payment for the towns.
The Massachusetts reimbursement for FY 2013 has not yet been set-tled by the Flood Control Commission, and munic-ipalities are still owed re-imbursement for FY 2013. However, the Department of Revenue Administra-tion did make full pay-ment to municipalities for FY 2014 and will do so again for FY 2015 per the
requirement in HB1282. It is important that the
state keep the promises it made to the 18 commu-nities who gave up their land and tax revenue for the overall good of New Hampshire and Massa-chusetts. To that end, I will continue to work with others to assure these communities re-ceive all funds owed them now and in the future. (This is a perfect example of why I have concerns about proposed projects
that are for “the greater good”—promises made, but not kept, and commu-nities suffering for it.)
As always, I want to hear from you. If you have a concern you’d like to share, an event you’d like me to attend, or a problem you think I might be able to help with–please call or email (271.4980 [o] or [email protected]).

Central NH VNA & Hospice offers bereavement support groups
REGION — Central New Hampshire VNA & Hospice is offering seven-week Bereave-ment Support Groups in two locations begin-ning in September 2014. One group will meet in Laconia on Tuesdays (early evening) and the other group will meet in Wolfeboro on Thurs-days (early evening). Each group consists of a series of one and a half hour meetings held each week for seven weeks.
Support Groups give people the opportuni-ty to discuss and learn ways of coping with their loss, to gain the support of others in safe and caring ways, and to learn about the grief process. Although grief is a unique experience through which each per-son finds his or her own way, there are common threads we all share when going through grief.
Pre-registration is re-quired, but the support group is offered free of charge.
To register for the group or for more in-formation, call or email James Miller, Hospice Bereavement Coordina-tor to schedule an ap-pointment.
Phone: 524-8444, ext. 2390 / 569-2729, ext. 256

Ask SCOREUnderstanding the what’s and why’s of advertising
Have you ever seen an advertisement and thought that something similar might well ben-efit your small business? Well, it just could. Or, it could backfire and be a complete waste of mon-ey.
That’s because ad-vertising is but one el-ement of a business’s overall marketing strat-egy. True, it has many facets—print, billboard, online, broadcast, direct mail, etc.—but each ele-ment and the message it conveys has been care-fully developed with a specific purpose in mind. In other words, image is not always ev-erything.
Veteran advertising executive and SCORE mentor Tom Patty says a sound small business advertising strategy is built on three fundamen-tals:
Know what you are trying to accomplish. There are several dis-tinct stages to a custom-er’s decision process, also called the “Pur-chase Funnel.” You need to decide what part of
that process you want to influence, and the best way to do it.
Select a medium. Know who you want to reach, and where they get their information.
Know what your mes-sage is. That message has to tie into what your target audience values. Is it responsiveness, quality, convenience, or something else?
Make sure you can measure it. You need something that you can “see,” such as more calls, greater use of cou-pons, traffic in store, etc.
Patty adds that en-trepreneurs should not waste time and energy on things that don’t mat-ter—stationary typeface, color of business card. Instead, they should fo-cus their message on what truly sets their business apart.
“Orient your message to how your product/service solves someone else’s need,” he says. “Ef-fective messages are also simple and fun, but the focus should still be the benefit to the customer.”
As for finding the most effective medium for your ads, Patty ad-vises against looking to online as a “magic bullet.” It’s best to start small, perhaps with a few keywords on Goo-gle AdWords. And don’t
overlook “conventional” channels such as print, broadcast, or direct mail. If that’s where your po-tential customers are, your well-developed ads should be there too.

business, contact SCORE Lakes Region by calling 524-0137 or log on to www.scorelakesre-gion.org and link to Free Counseling. Experi-enced business advisors are available to offer free and confidential advice.

Book signings at Annie’s Book Stop Aug. 23 & 26LACONIA — Mere-
dith author Peter Miller will be at Annie’s Book Stop in Laconia on Sat-urday, Aug. 23 from 11 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. to per-sonally inscribe copies of his three published books. “Jane Varney Durgin – Trick Rider, Quaker Preacher, Op-ponent of Slavery – Her Life and Times,” pub-lished in June, is a bi-ography of the Lakes Region’s legendary free spirited Quaker, whose originality and courage set her apart.
“So Fade the Lovely,” an off-beat mystery set in the Lakes Region in 1967, combines humor, a love story, and touches of small town life with suspense. “Seven Can-terbury Tales Retold” is
a collection of short sto-ries told by pilgrims as they travel to holy sites in Europe and the Far East. The stories, writ-ten in verse, range from the comical to the pro-found. Miller’s current work-in-progress, a nov-el titled “This Train Is Bound for Glory: A Sto-ry of the Underground Railroad in New Hamp-shire,” will be published when it is completed. There will be an oppor-tunity to talk with Miller about his books and the writing process while he is at Annie’s.
Join us on Saturday, Aug. 23 at 1-2:30 p.m. with local author Thaia-dora Katsos Dorow who will share her experienc-es with Lyme disease. She wrote the book,
“What’s the Big Deal About Lyme? Published by LuLu Books” and written about her strug-gle with one of the fast-est spreading infectious diseases. Not many peo-ple understand the dis-abling and irreversible neurological damage the disease will impart. She and her two children suffer with Lyme. The book chronicles her dai-ly struggles living a life with Lyme while educat-ing the reader about the complexities of the dis-ease, intricacies of sup-porting a loved one who is diagnosed, the politics surrounding appropri-ate care, and the impor-tance of prevention. She is pictured below hold-ing her book.
On Tuesday, Aug. 26 at 5:30 p.m., Kathy Wordwood will be here signing copies of her book, “Habits, Hosts and
the Holy Ghost.” At its heart, Habits, Hosts and the Holy Ghost captures forgotten memories of attending a Catholic school in the 1960's.The stories are based on actu-al events and life-chang-ing experiences of the author and fellow class-mates. Enjoy the tales of Maureen Mary Mull-doon whose Irish family prayed novenas, lit can-dles and said rosaries for the girl's promising vo-cation as a nun. But once she enters St Timothy's Catholic School and dis-covers the not-so-nice side of the Sisters, Mau-reen soon changes her mind. Friended by Ste-ven O'Hara, a rambunc-tious classmate whose mission is to infuriate the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, Maureen's daily experiences of pa-rochial school becomes full of surprises!

“It was the consensus of our board to see the Is-land concerts continue,” said Tilton Select Board Chair Pat Consentino. “We’re getting ready to send out requests for es-timates and we will help in any way we can within the realm of both towns.”
In order to allow things to continue for the remainder of the summer concert series, Tilton Selectman Jon Scanlon went out last week and made some temporary repairs to the leaking roof. He was assisted by Billy Lawrence of Bryant & Lawrence Hardware in Tilton, which gave him a discount on the special nails necessary for re-pairs to some of the cedar shake shingles.
To kick off the fund-raising last Sunday how-ever, Hartwell-Stewart and her family began selling music cd’s from both her mother Savina and some of the groups who have performed at their concerts. They also sold commemora-tive pewter ornaments of the Island’s bandstand named in her parent’s memory. Money raised from those sales will help in purchasing the supplies needed as well as the labor involved to replace the roof.
Last weekend’s crowd was a great example of how much everyone ob-viously enjoys the con-certs, including those from outside the two towns. Besides other residents from nearby Franklin, Hill, Belmont and Laconia, several Sanbornton residents also attended the event, which was co-sponsored by their very own Heri-tage Farm and the Swain family that operates it.
Another important annual sponsor has been the Thomas Salatiello Family Trust out of San-bornton, and Tom him-self was on the Island last Sunday night to enjoy the music and camarade-rie of the evening.
“I give a lot of credit to Allison for continuing the concerts her father started. It makes a differ-ence and I value what it does for the entire com-munity,” Salatiello said.
Other key sponsors have been the Towns of Tilton and Northfield, Gale Insurance Compa-ny, Franklin Savings Bank, Kenny Partridge Construction, Kris Mein-hold, and the Tilton/Northfield United Meth-odist Church who are operating the food con-cessions this year.
There are two Sunday night concerts left in the 2014 series and donations for the roof project will be gratefully accepted at each event. Other in-quiries on contributions may be made through the Alan & Savina Hart-well Memorial Band-stand page on Facebook.
“This bandstand and concert series was Al-an’s gift to all of you, the people of Tilton and Northfield. It has stood here proudly since 1993 and become an icon and a place where people can come together for friend-ship, fellowship, fun and good music,” Hart-well-Stewart said. “We need your help to make the necessary repairs. We hope you have en-joyed the series and will come to the summertime concert series for many more years ahead.”
Fizz and Boom had left a locked book behind at Sanbornton’s library. Once they got the lock opened, Axel’s missing library card was discov-ered, hidden away inside the cover.
After thanking them for their help in find-ing Axel’s stolen card, McAdam’s encouraged the boys and girls to con-tinue their work in keep-ing Fizz and Boom out of their library.
“The way to do that is to keep reading,” he said.
Craft time followed the show and those in the summer reading pro-gram were able to turn in their completed read-ing logs to receive a free
book. Library Director Marcia Haigh said those who hadn’t finished the challenge to read ten ti-tles still had time to do so before school starts.
Information on how to bring Greg and Axel’s
magic and fun to birth-days, school assemblies, fairs or other events can be found at www.mcad-amsmagic.com. A per-centage of each booking benefits other rescue an-imals like Axel.

Belmont softball core enjoys fine summerREGION – Talk about
a dominating summer.The 14U Bay State
Brats had a blistering tournament season on the diamond scene, as the club, which featured several local standouts, won a whopping five championships includ-ing the NSA Massachu-setts State title.
The Brats are an elite fast-pitch team based in the Merrimack Valley (Mass.) and Southern New Hampshire. The squad also won five tour-naments in 2013, compil-ing a record of 48-6-1.
The 2014 team wound up with an impressive 36-5 record during the busy summer season. The Brats outscored their opponents by a 388-
83 mark in those games, posting 15 shutouts in the process. The team went 5-1 in earning the Massachusetts State ti-tle.
The Brats had sev-eral local players from Belmont on the roster, including high school varsity starters Nicole Antonucci (third base) and Shannon Davies (pitcher/outfield). Juli-anna Estremera (pitch-er/outfield) and Jor-dyn Lavallee (outfield) were other Belmont residents to contribute, while Franklin’s Hailey Haskins was also a ma-jor component. Belmont High School varsity head coach Bill Clary was once again on the coach-ing staff for the Brats.

Solid summer comes to a close for Nor’Easter programBY JEFF LAJOIE
REGION – With the 2014 Nor’Easter Clas-sic in the rearview, the summer schedule came to a close recently for the three Nor’Easter soft-ball club teams that are made up predominantly of Lakes Region athletes.
“As for our Classic, we had a great day of softball on (day one) and (day two), 64 teams represented from every state in New England,” explained Nor’Easter president Fern Beaudet, who also coaches the 16U team. “On (day three), we were able to play our games up through our 11:30 a.m. games... then the rains came along with thunder and light-ning which flooded most of the fields.
“The only fields we could salvage were the three fields in Meredith for our 12U division,” he continued. “After the Nor’Easter staff de-termined the fields in Meredith were safe to play knowing there was still lots of work ahead of our volunteers, the 12U volunteers and coaches were determined to see the tourney come to a completion. After lots of hard work preparing the fields, we were able to finish all the games for our 12U division. All in all it was a great weekend of softball even though our 14U, 16U and
18U were cut short on Friday for the first time in the history of our 17 years of our Nor’Easter Classic.”
The Nor’Easters field-ed three clubs this sea-son, with teams in the 12U, 14U and 16U age groups during the sum-mer.
The 12U team went 1-2 in pool play at the host tournament last month, beating South Maine Frenzy (3-1) for their lone victory. In single elimi-nation draw on Sunday,
the team pulled out a solid win over Methuen Blue (9-1) before falling to the Worth Firecrack-er Red Hots, 6-1.
“The 12U team had a very competitive sea-son playing some of the toughest teams from New England in many of their tournaments,” said Beaudet. “The 12U team had many new faces on this year’s squad. They started out the season slow but came together as a team towards the end of the season to put
together some good qual-ity wins in some tough tournaments.”
The 14U team had a tough outing at the Nor’Easter tourney, go-ing 0-3 in pool play before dropping an elimination game to eventual run-ner-up Bay State Brats.
“Like the 12U team, our 14U team had many new faces with players from towns all around the Lakes Region,” Beau-det explained. “With a brand new coaching staff and new players,
the 14U team played tough all season even though they ended up with many players with injuries during the sea-son causing them to play shorthanded in many of the tournaments.”
The 16U team was unable to find out what might have been in the Nor’Easter Classic, as weather halted their fi-nal action. The squad went 1-2 in pool play, beating N.H. Comets White by a 4-2 margin for the win. In elimina-
tion bracket play, the squad blanked the NE Diamond Gems White, 7-0, but after two in-nings against Metrow-est Thunder in the next round, weather brought the day to a close with the score 0-0.
“This team had a core of seven players return-ing and with the addition of five new players, the team jelled really quick-ly,” said Beaudet of the 16U squad he coached. “After only two outdoor

practices to start the season, the team was able to win their first tournament, the Roch-ester Slammers Classic, beating a very tough N.H. Lightning Blue team in the final game, 3-1.”
After playing tough in three other tourna-ments, the 16U Nor’Eas-
ter team pulled out a solid outing in the Bow Turn 2 Classic. The club went 2-0-1 in pool play, and they followed that up with three wins on Sunday to earn a berth in the championship game. That run in-cluded a 5-4 win over a tough N.H. Comets Blue team in the semifinals (5-4). In the finals, the Nor’Easters dropped what wound up being their fourth game of the day to the Southern Maine Flame, settling
for a runner-up berth. All told, the squad com-piled a summer record of 16-12-1.
“All and all it was a very enjoyable sea-son for all Nor’Easter teams,” said Beaudet. “The Classic was again a success because of all the hard work from all of our Nor’Easter par-ents and volunteers. A big thank you to all of our parents and volun-teers.”
The Nor’Easter Club is looking forward to
putting together four new competitive teams for 2015, and tryouts were slated to begin last weekend at the Belmont High School softball field. For those who could not attend, there will be a second tryout scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 23 also at BHS.

Looking back to 1974One of my favorite
parts about writing for a newspaper is looking back at history. Our of-fice in Meredith has mi-crofilms of old copies of our papers, especially of the Meredith News, which dates back to the 1800s. While I’m not able to find every single year, I can get a pretty good glimpse into life at a particular time with re-cords from the 1930s and onwards.
I use some of these microfilms for historical feature stories, and they became quite helpful in a story I did this past winter on the rivalry be-tween Inter-Lakes and Moultonborough Acade-my on the girls’ basket-ball side.
When I was looking through some old film last week in prepara-tion for a future piece, I decided to dig through a paper from this week in 1974, just to see what kind of things were mak-ing news in the late sum-mer days 40 years ago. It’s crazy how much has changed, but reading
through the Aug. 22, 1974 edition of the Meredith News was pretty enter-taining. Here are some highlights from that week.
The front page of the paper had a bolded headline discussing the population growth in Meredith over the pre-vious year. From 1973 to 1974, the population in town grew 20 percent, from 3,075 residents to 3,681. That’s a gain of 606 people in just one year, a huge number for a small town. The 2010 census put the popula-tion at 6,241 in Meredith, meaning the population has doubled in about 40 years.
Another front page blurb mentioned that New Hampshire Gover-nor Meldrim Thomson Jr. and his wife were heading to Meredith later that week, with a breakfast meet and greet scheduled at Hart’s Tur-key Farm. In case you were wondering, danish, donuts, juice and coffee were on the menu. Ev-eryone was invited.
Adventures in Sports Reporting
By JEFF LAJOIE
The beginning of the 1974-75 school year was approaching, with the first day slated for Sept. 4. Freshmen at Inter-Lakes High School were told to report to the cafeteria on opening day, while soph-omores were to head to the gymnasium. Juniors are to report to the mu-sic room while seniors had to head to infamous Room 30.
Perhaps my favorite running feature in each week’s Meredith News back in those days was called ‘In And About Meredith.’ This week-
ly bulletin board was described as informing ‘the happenings of inter-est in your family, of the trips and vacations you have enjoyed, of your guests, parties, etc.’ Res-idents were encouraged to call the paper at 279-4516 to leave tips on the happenings. That phone number is still active at our office to this day, 40 years later. Here’s a sam-pling of some of the ‘hap-penings:’
“Mr. and Mrs. Ed-ward Bernard of Water Street were hosts to a cook-out Sunday eve-
ning. Guests were Mr. and Mrs. Alan Peterson and sons, Phil and Jeff, Tim Lawton, Bill, Sandy and baby, Star Lawton.”
“A dinner party at the Holiday Inn in Ports-mouth was given to Mr. and Mrs. John Haddock by their six children honoring their 25th wed-ding anniversary. Those attending from Meredith were Mr. and Mrs. Er-nest Ladd and daughter Linda and Mrs. Jean Morrill.”
“Mr. and Mrs. Wil-liam “Timer” Morrill gave a spaghetti dinner for the Tri-State Softball Team at their home on Eaton Parkway recent-ly.”
One last thing in the paper that struck me
was the results for golf action at Waukewan Golf Club. Just like we run in our paper in 2014, there were Thursday Twilight match results in 1974. On that partic-ular week, The Wedges overwhelmed The Driv-ers, 13 ½ to 4 ½ to assure a spot in the finals of the league. Jack Enright took low gross honors with a 2-under 34, while Leland Collins posted the low net with a 30.

Northfield’s Chapin came on strong for Keene StateBY JEFF LAJOIE
KEENE – After star-ring at Winnisquam Regional High School early in his career, Northfield’s Trevor Chapin made the move to the prep route, fin-ishing his high school days at New Hampton School. Chapin recent-ly closed out his first year at the collegiate level this past spring, where he took his tal-ents south and played at Keene State.
The infielder made his mark during his freshman season with the Owls, as he appeared in 12 games for a team that finished the year 10-20 overall, 3-11 in Lit-tle East Conference ac-tion. Chapin registered 43 plate appearances during the season, as he accumulated a .263 batting average. He had 10 hits in 38 official at bats, scoring three runs while clubbing two doubles and four runs batted in. He drwe five
walks to aid a healthy .349 on base percentage, and his slugging per-centage registered in at .316.
Chapin had his first collegiate hit in the team’s third game of the season on March 15. In a 6-4 loss to Wheaton Col-lege, he went 1-for-3 at the dish.
He had a pair of two hit games on the season, both coming late in the year when his playing time increased signifi-cantly down the stretch.
Chapin had two hits in games against Southern Maine (April 25) and Daniel Webster (April 27), as he started the team’s final nine games at third base. The team went a respectable 4-5 in their final nine games with Chapin drawing starts, and he clubbed two RBI in a tight 4-3 loss to Springfield Col-lege that tied the game at 3-3 at the time.
The Owls are coached by veteran skipper Ken Howe.

Northfield’s Trevor Chapin batted .263 as a freshman infielder at Keene State this spring, drawing starts in the Owls’ final nine games of the season.
Men’s league champs crowned in LRFFLMEREDITH – The
Lakes Region Flag Foot-ball League’s men’s summer adult league held its Super Bowl games on Aug. 11 and winners were crowned champions in each of two divisions.
The grown-up ver-sion of the exciting NFL flag youth league fall and spring program (boys and girls ages 4-17; lrffl.com), the LRF-FL’s summer league had a total of 12 teams participating in the pro-gram’s fourth summer of action. All games were played on the In-ter-Lakes High School turf field.
All of the teams made the playoffs, with the 12 teams divided into an “A” and “B” divi-sion. The “A” division consisted of the top six teams based upon their regular season record, while the “B” division was made up of teams seeded seventh through 12th based upon their record. The playoff games were spread out over three separate nights to enhance the competition.
The round one games saw plenty of colorful
action, with the “A” division third-seeded team Ramrod facing the sixth-seeded Globo Gym Purple Cobras, and the fourth-seeded Frank-lin’s Finest battling the fifth-seeded Seed Easy Company.
The “B” division third seed CJ Avery team took on the sixth seed Off At Church team, and the number four seed Vipers met the fifth-seeded Frog Rock team. The top two seeded teams in each di-vision waited upon the outcome of the round one games to see who their opponent would be as they battled for a trip into the Super Bowl game. The round one teams battled for their playoff lives; all the players knew it was win and advance, or lose and the season was over.
The round two games did not disappoint ei-ther, with each of the remaining teams doing their best to make it to the big game. In the “A” division the top seed Farina Iron team took on fourth-seeded Franklin’s Finest (in a re-match of a week one battle) and the two seed
White Lightning team took on the three seed Team Ramrod in the first meeting of the sea-son for these two teams.
The “B” division round two match-ups saw the one seed War-riors against the four seed Vipers for the first time this season, and the two seed Turn Down For What battling the three seed CJ Avery team. Turn Down For What met CJ Avery in the first week of the reg-ular season, with Turn Down For What win-ning a shootout, 48-46.
The “A” Division Su-per Bowl featured the top seed and undefeat-ed Farina Iron team (6-0) taking on the three seed Team Ramrod (6-1), whose only loss of the season came at the hands of Farina Iron in week six of the regular season. The first half saw both teams come out on fire, and Team Ramrod got a QB sack in the end zone to take an early 2-0 lead and after taking over on of-fense, quickly scored a touchdown and extra point to go up 9-0.
Farina Iron’s offense began to click midway
through the half, and the score at halftime was Farina Iron 25, Team Ramrod 22.
The second 22-min-ute stanza saw Farina Iron’s offense come out firing on all cylinders, and the defense began to put the kibosh on Team Ramrod’s offense. Final score saw Farina Iron win their first LRFFL Men’s Summer League
Super Bowl after their second trip in a row to the big game, 63-28.
The “B” Division Su-per Bowl saw the three seed CJ Avery team (3-4) playing the four seed Vipers (3-4) for the championship. CJ Av-ery was on a three game winning streak, and the Vipers had won two in a row going back to the regular season and the

first round of the play-offs. With both teams looking to extend their winning streak, CJ Av-ery took a 26-6 lead at the half and outlasted a scrappy Vipers team, 38-18.
It was CJ Avery’s sec-ond Super Bowl win in three seasons, having won the 2012 “A” divi-sion Super Bowl.
A special thank you goes out to all the teams that joined for the 2014 season: Farina Iron, CJ Avery’s, Team Ramrod, Vipers, White Light-ning, Franklin’s Finest, Easy Company, Globo Gym Purple Cobras, Warriors, Turn Down For What, Frog Rock and Off At Church.
