Berlin Teen Center is closed, for now BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN—The Teen Center at St. Barnabas Church at the corner of Main and High Streets in Berlin has been a cool place to hang out and teens are doing their best to keep it that way. Budget cutbacks forced Tri County CAP to close the Center, but a teen committee is working hard to raise money to keep the Teen Center alive. The committee includes Alan Laflamme, Dakota Montminy, Adam Pelkey,

Barry Camp reopening celebrated BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN – The reopening of the Barry Conservation 4-H Camp was celebrated Saturday with a good crowd on hand to see the restored youth conservation camp. At the end of the 2009 season, the future of the camp was in doubt. The buildings had deteriorated and Fish and Game, which operates the camp in conjunction with UNH 4-H had no money to refurnish it. The camp was unable to open for the 2010 season. But over the past year, a volunteer effort has raised $40,000 in cash plus hundreds of hours of volunteer labor to refurbish the camp. For the first time in over a year, this week the camp is back in use. A group of teenagers are at the camp taking a Natural Leaders Course designed to inspire them to become environmental and community leaders. Five other camp programs are planned for this summer. When the camp closed, one of the first groups to jump to the rescue of was the Belknap County Sportsmen Association. “We had sent kids to the camp and when they closed it, it was very disappointing,” said Association President Mike Normandin. The club contacted Fish and Game and set up a meeting with Fish and Game Executive Director Glenn Normandeau and 4-H officials. Together they set a goal of raising $50,000 to refurbish the camp using volunteer labor and setting up an

endowment for future upgrades. Normandeau suggested they start by adopting the recreation hall and refurbishing that first. “We just started there,” said Normandin. The transformation over the past year is visible. All of the buildings have new metal roofs, the floors, ceilings, and exteriors have been painted, drainage has been improved, the electrical systems have been upgraded, and there are new footlockers. The fire pit has been upgraded, a new shooting range was added, and the swimming hole was rebuilt. The Belknap County Sportsmen Association alone donated 408 hours of labor last year. Other clubs were solicited to adopt the six cabins and commit to maintaining them for a period of five years. The N.H. Trappers Association had 20 volunteers who donated three weekends. Inmates from the Northern N.H. Correctional Facility did the cleaning and landscaping. Former Berlin building inspector Maurice Levertue did the electrical upgrading to bring all the buildings up to today’s codes. Raffi Painting of Berlin painted all of the buildings, working into the night to get the buildings done in time for the grand re-opening. Berlin firefighters donated their time to build two sets of stairs. Scores of people across the state sent donations especially after newspaper columnist John Harrigan made a plea for see CAMP page 7

GRS Board gets advice on collective bargaining BY MELISSA GRIMA THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

GORHAM — The Gorham Randolph Shelburne Cooperative School Board received advice from its attorney about what collective bargaining conflicts exist and how they should be managed in advance of this year's negotiations. The administration took heat in the public forum last year for the perception

of a conflict. That perceived conflict came when voters asserted that SAU 20 Superintendent Paul Bousquet had engaged in the collective bargaining process with the teachers' union. Members of the public went so far as to seek an injunction against the vote at March's annual meeting, which was dismissed by a Superior Court judge. see ADVICE page 6

Dead Python actor stars in new film

LOS ANGELES (NY Times) — You can kill him, cremate him and (ostensibly) kick his ashes around the stage at a comedy festival in Aspen. But you can’t keep a funny guy down. Graham Chapman, whose death from cancer in 1989 forever closed the door on a full reunion of the Monty Python comedy troupe, will soon be back in what might be the next best thing: he will star in a 3-D animated version of his absurdist memoir, “A Liar’s Autobiography: Volume VI,” with most or all of the surviving Python members performing roles that are cut together with Chapman’s voice from a taped reading made shortly before he died. Produced and directed by Bill Jones, Ben Timlett and Jeff Simpson, who are based in London, the project continues a chaotic afterlife for the creators of “Monty Python’s Flying Circus,” a BBC comedy series whose run ended in 1974. They have resurfaced in films, on Broadway and in a 1998 appearance at the Aspen Comedy Arts festival, during which Terry Gilliam of the group kicked over what appeared to be an urn containing Mr. Chapman’s ashes. (In fact, those were scattered elsewhere.)

CHICAGO (NY Times) — A jury on Monday convicted Rod R. Blagojevich, the former governor of Illinois, of trying to personally benefit from his role in selecting a replacement for President Obama in the United States Senate. Blagojevich, a Democrat whose former aides say once saw himself as a presidential contender some day, was

found guilty of 17 counts of wire fraud, attempted extortion, bribery, extortion conspiracy and bribery conspiracy. He was acquitted on one charge of bribery, and the jury deadlocked on two counts of attempted extortion. The verdict appeared to be the conclusion, at last, to the spectacle of Blagojevich’s political career, which began

its spiraling descent shortly after Obama was elected president in November 2008. A month after Election Day, Mr. Blagojevich, who under state law was required to name a senator to replace Obama, was arrested, and federal agents revealed that they had secretly recorded hundreds of hours of damaging phone calls by him and his advisers.

Bachmann is in, officially WATERLOO, Iowa (NY Times) — Representative Michele Bachmann of Minnesota formally opened her candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination on Monday, presenting herself as a forceful conservative who will confront the party’s establishment and not compromise on principles to capture grass-roots enthusiasm that has risen up in opposition to President Obama. “I seek the presidency not for vanity, but because America is at a crucial moment,” Bachmann said.

PUBLIC NOTICE The North Country Health Consortium, a nonprofit organization located in Littleton, NH, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a lease with Androscoggin Valley Home Care Services, a non-profit organization located in Berlin, NH. The lease provides for office and clinic space for North Country Health Consortium and the Molar Express program in an amount not to exceed $1,950 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2011, $8,400 for FY12, $8,700 for FY13 and $9,000 for FY14. Margo Sullivan, a Director of the Board of North Country Health Consortium, serves as the Executive Director for Androscoggin Valley Home Care Services. This Notice is provided in compliance with New Hampshire RSA 7:19-a.

“I believe that we must make a bold choice if we are to secure the promise of our future.” Bachmann made the announcement in her childhood home of Waterloo, where she hopes that her Iowa roots will provide an advantage over her rivals in the state that opens the Republican nominating contest early next year. She introduced herself as a candidate with broad appeal, acknowledging the spirit of Tea Party activists, but pointing out that she hails from a long line of Democrats.

BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — Scores of opposition figures met publicly Monday in Damascus for the first time since Syria’s anti-government uprising began. The officially-sanctioned gathering underlined the changes the rebellion has wrought in Syria as well as the challenges ahead in breaking a cycle of protests and crackdowns that have left hundreds dead. The gathering was remarkable foremost for its rarity — a public show of dissent in a country that has long conflated opposition with treason. But it also cut across some of the most pressing questions in Syria today: whether a venerable but weak opposition can bridge its longstanding divides, whether the government is willing to engage it in real dialogue and whether it can eventually pose an alternative to President Bashar alAssad’s leadership. The meeting offered no answers, but in speech after speech, participants insisted the three-monthold revolt could only end with Mr. Assad’s surrender of absolute power.

I love grapes and grape juice myself To the editor: It was very interesting to read Faith Kingsley’s response to my “sour grapes” letter of June 22. It was also very gratifying to know that I was able to get her “sweet grape” defensive juices flowing. In her letter, she wrote that she wasn’t sure if I was a Red Sox fan or a Yankees fan. To enlighten her, I was a huge Boston Red Sox fan until September 28, 1960. That was the day one of my two boyhood idols (Maurice “The Rocket” Richard was the other one) played his last game for the Red Sox. It was very painful for a young boy to constantly read stories by Boston sportswriters who always made it a point to vilify baseball’s greatest hitter. Over the years, because of Boston sports writers and TV talk shows, I have devel-

oped an intense dislike for all Boston sports teams. As a matter of fact, I abhor them! I must respectfully decline Kingley’s invitation for me to jump on the Bruin’s bandwagon. It would be hypocrisy if I was to do so. She wrote that it was filling up fast, but there will probably be plenty of room on it again next year. I don’t know if she was being dis-respectful, facetious or they were typographical errors, but the Montreal team name was misspelled nine times in her letter. Maybe her brother, the Montreal fan, can teach her that its Canadiens and Canadians. I hope you enjoy the Stanley Cup for a year and after that you’ll need to keep the faith, faith! P.S. I love grapes and grape juice! Ron Marquis Gorham

Teaching the Dismal Science Attitudes toward President Obama have changed drastically since last year here in western Maine. I just finished correcting my final batch of about six dozen elderly interviews which I’ve been assigning to students around here for 30 years. There will be no more since I’ll become a former history teacher after Friday. Students select someone 70 years old or older, ask the 20 questions I give them, and then ask 10 they make up themselves. One assigned question asks who their favorite president was and why. The other asks who their least favorite president was and why. Answers to the first question have always varied widely with no president getting a majority. However, a plurality each year for the entire 30 years has gone to Franklin Roosevelt. As for why, the typical answer has always been that “He got us out of the Depression.” Last year, President Obama got quite a few endorsements for favorite president — about fifteen or so if I remember correctly. Most people said things like: “He’s turning the economy around,” or “He’s going to help the little guy,” or “He’s very smart.” This year, however, only three people indicated that Obama was their favorite president. Instead, he got about 15 votes for least favorite — second only to Richard Nixon. For the past three years or so, George W. Bush was selected by about 15 people for least favorite president but he was only mentioned three times this year. Evidently people in western Maine hold Obama responsible for our weak economy, even though he’s has been blaming Bush for nearly three years now. The bloom is definitely off the Obama rose if my informal annual polling is any guide. One lesson from all this is that James Carville’s “It’s the economy, stupid” advice to his client Bill Clinton in the 1992 campaign sustains today. More recent histories like Emily Schlaes’s “The Forgotten Man,” question the enduring myth that President Roosevelt “got us out of the Depression.” She makes a strong case that his New Deal policies worsened and prolonged the Great Depression rather than ended it. Roosevelt surrounded himself with big-government control freaks who were fervent believers in the ideas that came to be known as Keynesian economics after the late British economist John Maynard Keynes. They borrowed and spent with the notion that they were priming an economic pump,

or jumpstarting an economic engine which would rev up under their hyper-regulatory direction. They went off the gold standard and set the value of money by fiat. The Federal Reserve went along, just as it is going along with Obama’s new-New Deal now. None of it worked, but Roosevelt seemed to be doing something. He convinced enough people in his fireside chats that happy days were here again, even if they weren’t. President Obama and his economic team are using the same tactics and getting the same results. Keynesian economics didn’t work for Roosevelt and they didn’t work for Johnson, Nixon, Ford, or Carter either. What’s it called when someone tries the same thing over and over, expecting a different result? Reagan, by contrast, believed in the ideas of Frederick Hayek, who suggested that government should stay out of business affairs and let markets work things out. My students studied the conflicting economic ideas of Keynes vs Hayek this year and how they’ve played themselves out in the 20th century. John Papola and Russ Roberts put together a clever rap video outlining the conflicting ideas of the two economists, the refrain of which states: “They’ve been going back and forth for a century. ‘I want to steer markets [says Keynes];’ ‘I want them set free [says Hayek].’” My students loved it so much they were singing it in the hallways by their lockers after class and showed it to their parents on Youtube. Then last month, an equally clever Round Two was produced. Lots of ideas were packed into the lyrics and imagery in each and both moved very fast, but they were great motivators in my quest for students to learn principles of what many refer to as the “dismal science” of economics. My hope is that at least some of my charges will go away with a conceptual understanding of what government’s role in the economy should be. Maybe that will at least partially offset the enduring myth that Keynesian economic policies worked under Franklin Roosevelt. Voters, meanwhile, are trusting their own judgement on how those ideas are working out under President Obama. Let’s hope that’s reflected in the 2012 election results.

Mine has been gone for many years but I still have good memories to be thankful for. I am a Father to two teenage daughters and one teenage son whom I care about not only now, but how their decisions today will affect rest of their lives (even when I am no longer alive), and where they will spend eternity. Please give me the right as a parent to know when my two teenage daughters (and one teenage son) need me the most! Already I must be notified and give permission if they go on a field trip and provide a note for them to be given any type of doctor prescribed medicine, so why should I not know if they will be taken on a field trip to visit a doctor to get an abortion?! There are always exceptions of parents that can not be trusted, but do we penalize all law abiding and more importantly responsible and loving parents, or for that matter all law abiding and responsible citizens for the actions or inaction of non-law abiding and irresponsible citizens?

I have always been there for my children since they were born, to watch over them when they were babies, change diapers, help with feedings, and to make sure that they had everything that they needed (and yes things they didn’t need as we all probably spoil our children at some point to have what we would have wanted, but at least we get to enjoy it through their eyes) to enjoy a happy, healthy, loving and productive life, so please do not keep important information about my daughter’s life, when she most needs the advice of her parent along with the advice she will get from strangers. Whatever your beliefs or values, please uphold the law and rights of the N.H. citizens that you have been entrusted to represent and vote for HB329! Shawn T.

Thank you so much for your belief in and continued support of NFHP! Thank you to all who attended! All events at NFHP are for the community to enjoy! What a great day it was, in spite of the downpour at the end of the afternoon. Plan B had some equipment that was in questionable condition after the downpour but managed to get up and playing in no time! Thank you for the entertainment, it was superb! It was a beautiful day, the volunteers were incredible, the Chicken Wing BBQ competitors were amazing, the Horseshoe Tournament, played by serious yet friendly competitors, was a very pleasurable way to pass the day, the River Day exhibitors were remarkable, the horse and wagon and river boat rides were a hit and smiles were seen everywhere you looked. River Day/ WINGZILLA is one of the many events hosted by NFHP and fast becoming a signature event! Thank you to all who participated! Special thanks to all the newspapers that publish our letters and press releases! River Day/WINGZILLA was a great day, two awesome events, on the same day, at the same location!

Bousquet's wife is a teacher in the district. He clarified at the annual school meeting, and in the press, that those making the assertions were wrong and he had had taken part in the support staff contract negotiations, but that business administrator Pauline Plourde had served as the SAU representative for the teacher contract negotiations. Since the town voted down the proposed multiyear extension for the teachers brought forth at that time and the contracts are being negotiated again, the district sought legal counsel since the matter is complicated by the fact that Plourde's daughter works for the district as a teacher. In a letter dated June 9, the district's attorney Barbara Loughman, of the Wolfeboro firm Soule, Leslie, Kidder Sayward and Loughman, smoothed out the complication with advice regarding the board members and administrators with family ties in the unions. Loughman states that she LISTENING from page one

believes that Plourde may continue to negotiate with the teachers' union while Bousquet negotiates with support staff. The attorney explained that Bousquet and school board member Greg Corrigan are both ineligible to negotiate with the teachers because both are married to teachers and therefore the negotiations have the potential to affect their personal household incomes. Plourde's daughter, however, resides in a separate household, which means there is no direct financial interest for Plourde, she explained. In light of that difference, Plourde is not compromised in the negotiation by a pecuniary conflict of interest, Loughman wrote. “In conducting collective bargaining negotiations, the school board is not acting in a judicial or quasi-judicial capacity. Instead, the school board is acting in its executive/legislative capacity. That means that, unless there is a direct financial interest in the outcome, there is no conflict of interest,” the attorney said. on engineering aspects of this project. Bergeron has hired landscape architect John Wacker and economic consultant Stuart Arnett. to work on the project team. Arnett will be scheduling on-site visits with Main Street businesses at the meeting.

the cause in his Sunday News column. “It’s really great to see how it all came together,” said Normandeau. “People in the outdoor community came together to restore the camp,” said Judy Stokes, public affairs division chief for Fish and Game. Executive Councilor Raymond Burton called Saturday a day of celebration and cited the restoration of the camp as something positive in government. He read a proclamation from the state honoring commending the work of the Belknap County Sportsmen Association. Dale Carruth, president of the N.H. Chapter of Safari Club International, presented a $5,000 check to the Camp Barry fund. Judy Silverberg, conservation eduction program supervisor for Fish and Game, noted it is the young campers who will benefit from the resto-

ration of Camp Barry. She said they will learn skills and enjoy the outdoor experience because Barry Camp exists. Silverberg was presented with a plaque recognizing her persistence in getting the camp re-opened. In closing Normandin said his club initiated the effort with a good deal of blind faith that other clubs would respond. He said the response was great. Now he said they are now stewards of the camp and must continue to fund-raise to keep up repairs to ensure the camp’s future. The Barry Conservation Camp was originally built in 1976 by the Youth Conservation Corp. In 1986, it was renamed Barry Camp in honor of former Fish and Game Executive Director Charles Barry who was present Saturday. The dining hall was added in 2002. Camp Barry is located next to the Fish and Game York Pond Fish Hatchery on White Mountain National Forest land.

understood what a friend-in-need the church has been to teens. Scott proposed that the Duke's planned "comeback concert," Sunday, at the Northern Forest Heritage Park, could be a fundraiser for the Teen Center. The teens as well as Tri County CAP personnel readily agreed. The concert raised a little more than $1,000 for the center. But that was just for starters. The teen committee is planning bake sales. They're thinking about a dinner and silent auction. Maybe they'll do a car wash. They're tossing

around several more ideas. They welcome input. All this planning will have to be done during impromptu meetings because the doors officially closed on the Teen Center at St. Barnabas on Friday. However, Teen Center manager Lynn Dion says they can meet at St. Barnabas. As volunteers, she and St. Barnabas Rector Fran Gardner-Smith have offered to help advise the youngsters, but it won't be quite the same. For several years teens aged 13-19 who are still in school have been welcome at the Teen Center from 2:30 to 6 p.m. every school day and from 1-6

p.m. on vacation week days. They could play games at the Play Station or Foosball at the Foosball bench. Several computers were available for Internet research or games or movies. Several tables with chairs were available for those who had homework to do. And there were also fruit drink, fruit and snacks and comfortable chairs to lounge in for conversation or reading. The teens who came regularly understood that the Teen Center "is built upon four pillars: Caring, Responsibility, Honesty, Respect" and for some it became "like a family." But now that family won't be there

for them this summer and possibly longer, unless the teen committee and Tri County CAP have success in their search for funds. "Whatever happens," says Dion sadly, "the Teen Center won't be open this summer, just when the teens could most use a place to feel at home and to chill out." Those who would like to contribute to help save the Teen Center, can contact Tri County CAP at 30 Exchange Street, Berlin. The Teen Center is one of the Tri-County CAP Youth Alternatives Programs. What happened to the funds that supported the Teen Center in the past? "The Berlin Teen Center has lost what was usually a secured funding resource during this past year," said Kathy McKenna, director of volunteer programs for Tri County CAP. "Incentive Funding, which is State Incentive money channeled through the Division of Children, Youth and Families to the counties, has undergone drastic changes," she continued. "This ever dwindling pool of funds, to the point on non-existence today, was heavily counted on by the Teen Center. "The Teen Center is a piece of the Youth Alternatives Program and although Youth Alternatives applied for funding for both components of their program only one was funded. This was due to both fund availability and the fact that the Teen Center only serves a portion of the county," McKenna said. "Other smaller revenue line items including the City of Berlin, in-kind donations and fundraising fall extremely short of the required cost to operate the Center. "Although some attempts to secure funding through other resources have been unsuccessful to date we are grateful to the NH Charitable Foundation and our sponsoring agency, Tri-County CAP for support this year," she said. "We will be looking at restructuring the purpose and activities of the Teen Center during the summer months and apply for funding that will allow us to reopen next fall and offer the youth in our area more opportunities to engage in their own development and that of their community," McKenna concluded.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis what makes you happy. When your heart sings, everything else in your life sways to the rhythm. Nothing beats the feeling. It’s like you suddenly know why you were born. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You check in with people and let them know that you care about their happiness. If there’s anything you can do to increase the satisfaction of those around you, you do it, and it doesn’t feel like work to you at all. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll notice the needs and contributions of others, so mention what you see. Your comments will foster a mood of involvement and connection. There’s a culture of caring that is building all around you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Fear is quite often self-preserving and lifesaving. So don’t berate yourself for feeling afraid, even if others are not afraid of the same thing. Perhaps your wariness shows greater intelligence. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Most people are too focused on themselves to give you the praise and encouragement you so deserve now. It will boost your self-esteem to imagine what others would be saying if they were more perceptive and tuned in to you. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 28). You achieve a heroic level of maturity. You forgive the past and rewrite it to support the success story of your future. Through wisdom and discipline, you attain a goal in July. Romance is alive in August. Your social schedule is packed with fun in September. Invest in yourself in October. Financial gain comes in April. Aries and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 25, 2, 15 and 1.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You care a great deal -- perhaps even more than is healthy for you or effective for the situation. Consider dialing it back. What would happen if you let go just a little? Trust in life’s process. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may not be entirely happy with the way you come across when the pressure is on. Give yourself credit anyway. You’re being much too hard on yourself these days. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). At this point, it would be nice to have a friend to help you understand your life -- someone with objectivity, wisdom, emotional intelligence and a gift for gentle communication. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some jobs take only a matter of seconds, and yet you still can’t be bothered. That’s because you’re so focused on what matters to you now. You can always clean up the rough edges later. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your sense of self-worth will improve when you consciously decide to raise it up. Write down 10 things you like about yourself, and carry the list in your wallet. It’s more valuable than money. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are genuinely interested in others -- where they are coming from, their stories and what they know. So you don’t think first about how it all applies to you; you just listen. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will be somewhat disappointed in the actions of those around you. They can’t help that their perceptions are so different from yours, and they are only acting on what they know. Still, you feel the need to educate them. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Do

ON FAMILY’S VACATIONS, THREE’S COMPANY AND FOUR’S A CROWD

DEAR ABBY: My son is single and enjoys vacationing with us every summer. He pays all his expenses. My married daughter has become jealous. Her financial situation is such that I would have to pay her expenses if she were to vacation with us. We also have a compact SUV, so when our luggage is in the car, there’s room for only one other person besides my wife and me. Am I showing partiality to my son, who does not have a spouse to travel with and is able to pay his own way? Most years I guess we could afford to take my daughter and pay her expenses, but I feel her financial situation is the result of her own poor planning. -- DAD IN DES MOINES DEAR DAD: I can see how hearing about the enjoyable trips your son shares with you every summer might sting when your daughter hears about them. But does she expect that you include her husband on these trips and pay his way, too? And what about the driving and luggage arrangements if her husband accompanies her? Also, if you invite only her, how would her husband feel about being left behind? A more practical alternative would be to figure out some other activity you, your daughter and her spouse can enjoy together that doesn’t involve travel. DEAR ABBY: I’m a widow in love with a wonderful man. We have decided to live together for a few months before getting married. Had we done this with our former spouses, we could have avoided marriages that led to divorce. My mother has always said living together before marriage is a good idea. That was, until I told her my fiance and I plan to. She went ballistic! She said it’s OK for others, but not

HER daughter. Her main concern is what people may think or say to her. I told her to simply say, “It’s my daughter’s business, and she’s old enough to make her own decisions.” I’m upset by Mother’s reaction. She seems to think that because she gave me life she has the right to run it. I’m a mature, responsible adult who can make her own life decisions. What do you think? -- SHACKING UP IN SYRACUSE DEAR SHACKING UP: I think that as a mature, responsible adult, you need to do what is right for you. Your mother comes from a generation when standards were more straitlaced and judgmental than they are today. So remember she loves you, forgive her for “going ballistic” and agree to disagree. DEAR ABBY: I am madly in love (infatuated?) with my surgeon. I had a bilateral mastectomy and he saved my life. The cancer is gone. It has been almost a year, and I need to return for a checkup. I haven’t stopped thinking about “Dr. Dreamy” this entire year. We are both in our 40s; I’m single, he’s single. Would it be unethical if I act on my feelings and let him know? Should I get another doctor? Or do I just go to the appointment and “grin and ‘bare’ it”? Help! -- “GEORGE” ON MY MIND IN PHOENIX DEAR “GEORGE” ON YOUR MIND: You have nothing to lose by baring your soul as well as the rest of you at the time of your checkup. However, if there is mutual interest, it would be unethical of Dr. Dreamy to become involved with you while you are his patient.

Exciting things happening at the Gorham Public Library GORHAM -- There have been many exciting happenings at our Gorham Public Library over this past year! We’ve expanded our reading room by moving it to the east wing of the library. This move provides us with a larger area to display our newspapers, periodicals, audiobooks, movies, puzzles, White Mountains Collection, and reference section. Our patrons now have more quiet and comfortable space to read, study, or log-on to our free Wi-Fi. Over the past several months, we have been making the transition to a fully automated system. Through the effort of volunteers and staff, patrons can access Membership Services and the entire Catalog on-line at https://gorham.biblionix.com/. Patrons are now able to renew as well as reserve books on-line. Looking for the latest release?
