School budget gets passing grade from budget committee

Overwhelmingly supports budget; opposes all-day kindergarten

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — What a difference a year makes.

Last year on Sunday, Feb. 13, during a fourhour meeting, the Municipal Budget Committee voted to cut the 2011-12 school budget by 11 percent after several votes and different

proposals that included everything from a 16 percent cut to a token $1 cut.

Fast forward a year to last Thursday night: The school board's proposed 2012-13 budget sailed through with budgeteers praising the school board for its effort. They supported the budget 15-2 (Ray Shakir and Doug Swett in see BUDGET page 16

Vending machines at schools may change WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The government’s attempt to reduce childhood obesity is moving from the school cafeteria to the vending machines.

The Obama administration is working on setting nutritional standards for foods that children can buy outside the cafeteria. With students eating 19 percent to 50 percent of their daily food at school, the administration says it wants to ensure that what they eat contributes to good health and smaller waistlines.

The proposed rules are expected within the next few weeks.

Efforts to restrict the food that schoolchildren eat outside the lunchroom have long been controversial.

Representatives of the food and beverage industries argue that many of their products contribute to good nutrition and should not be banned. Schools say that overly restrictive rules, which could include banning the candy sold for school fund-raisers, risk the loss of substantial revenue that helps pay for sports, music and arts programs. A study by the National Academy of Sciences estimates that about $2.3 billion worth of snack foods and beverages are sold annually in schools nationwide.

Supreme Court agrees to hear affirmative action case

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The Supreme Court on Tuesday agreed to hear a major case on affirmative action in higher education, adding another potential blockbuster to a docket already studded with them.

The court’s decision in the new case holds the potential to undo an accommodation reached in the Supreme

Court’s 5-to-4 decision in 2003 in Grutter v. Bollinger: that public colleges and universities could not use a point system to boost minority enrollment but could take race into account in vaguer ways to ensure academic diversity.

Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, who wrote the majority opinion in Grutter, said the accommodation was

meant to last 25 years.

The court’s membership has changed since 2003, most notably for these purposes with the appointment of Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., who replaced Justice O’Connor in 2006. Justice Alito has voted with the court’s more conservative justices in decisions hostile to the use of racial classifications by the government.

Growing concerns in Greece over new bailout ATHENS (NY Times) — Even as the European Union signed off Tuesday on a sweeping new arrangement to help avert a Greek default and stabilize the euro, many people here on the streets saw no end in sight to their country’s woes.

“They don’t want to kill us but keep us down on our knees so we can keep paying them indefinitely,” said Eva Kyriadou, 55, as she stood in a square in downtown Athens where the smell of tear gas and the smashed facades from last week’s violent riots still lingered.

Indeed, the deal was reached amid a growing air of stalemate and concern. Greece’s foreign

lenders expressed doubts that the new austerity measures the Greek Parliament passed last week — including pension cuts and a 22 percent cut to the private-sector benchmark minimum wage — would actually be implemented, at least before early national elections as soon as April.

Others are concerned that in the fine print of the 400-plus-page document — which Parliament members had a weekend to read and sign — Greece relinquished fundamental parts of its sovereignty to its foreign lenders, the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund.

Iran warns of pre-emptive action in dispute

LONDON (NY Times) — As tension grew in its nuclear dispute with the West, Iran was reported on Tuesday to have struck an increasingly bellicose tone, warning that it would take pre-emptive action against perceived foes if it felt its national interests were threatened, and laying down new conditions for oil sales.

The warnings came as Tehran also appeared to place limits on a visit by a team of United Nations nuclear officials, saying the investigators would not go to nuclear facilities, despite earlier reports that its members had sought permission to inspect a military complex outside Tehran.

In a further extension of a dispute with the European Union over an oil embargo due to come into force on July 1, Tehran also outlined what were termed conditions for future sales to European customers. Iran said Sunday that it had cut off sales to Britain and France and warned on Monday that it might extend the ban to other members of the 27-nation European Union.

Mild winter raises syrup concerns TEMPLE — A mild winter across the Northeast is injecting extra uncertainty into maple syrup season, but many producers say they’ll just go with the flow, whenever it starts.

Temperatures have been up and snowfall totals have been down throughout the region this winter, raising some concern for the maple syrup crop. But syrup producers said the weather during the six-week season when sap flows matters more than the weather leading up to it.

“The mild winter, I’m sure, has some effect on the trees and the soil and the microorganisms and so forth, but as long as you get those freezes and thaws during the actual sap flow season, those are what control how much sap you get,” said Brian Stowe, sugaring operations manager at the University of Vermont’s Proctor Maple Research Center.

Below-freezing nights followed by warm days are necessary to start the sap flowing from maple trees, a period that usually begins in late February or early March. But those conditions arrived early in some areas, prompting producers like Ben Fisk, of Temple,

to start collecting and boiling sap Feb. 2, more than a month earlier than he did last year.

“We made syrup the earliest we’ve ever made syrup this year,” said Fisk, 23, a fifth-generation producer who has been making maple syrup since he was 5. “This time of year, there should be three or four feet of snow, and it should be cold out and we shouldn’t even be thinking about making syrup for another couple weeks.”

Although Fisk was happy to get a jump start on the season, it could end early, too, if prolonged stretches of warm weather result in budding trees.

“I’ve had more phone calls this year than I’ve ever gotten before. Everyone wants to know what everyone else is doing. ‘Is it time?’ ‘Should we tap?’” said Helen Thomas, who set the 1,700 taps on her family’s farm about a week earlier than usual.

With so little snow, she worries that all it will take is one warm day in March to trick the trees into thinking spring has arrived. Once trees start to bud, the sap develops an “off” flavor, effectively ending the season.

Sordi, a selfless leader

As town meetings draw near, much of the focus is on budgets and warrant articles.

Less often considered are the elected officials who set policy, review and scrutinize those budgets. Every board representative deserves thanks for serving their community, but every once in a while an individual proves so invaluable it becomes hard to imagine orderly operation of a local government body without him or her. Budget committee chair David Sordi is one of those officials, and we would like to recognize him for his selfless service and leadership.

Policy and budget discussions have ranged from tense to explosive over the past year. As a result of the 2011 school budget battle, 15 candidates ran for eight vacant budget committee seats, adding to the 11 sitting members.

Many of the candidates and sitting members had starkly different views on budgeting and community needs. As chair, Sordi was tasked with steering this fractious committee, something that looked to be an impossible task.

The budget committee, already the largest board in Conway, looked poised to founder as it launched into its review of the 2011 revised school budget. Sordi, however, rose to the challenge and succeeded in leading the committee to one of its most productive years in memory.

The board did its job with finesse, showing careful consideration lacking by committees in recent years. Even some of those looking to abolish the budget committee have praised the board under Sordi’s leadership, praise we wholeheartedly agree with.

Sordi has proven a fair and effective board chair capable of reining in the personalities and egos (of which there are many) to get the job done. He treats every member with respect regardless of their views, and he does not allow the conversation to get sidetracked or hijacked by issues outside their purview.

Sordi’s term on the budget committee comes to a close this year. He has indicated he will not run for a second term. While we were disappointed to learn of his decision, we are hopeful his tenure will serve as an example to future boards. This community was lucky Sordi put his name on the ballot three years ago. Selfless leadership is a rare find.

This tour commences at the police station, East Conway Road and travel westerly, continuing on to Green Hill Road. When you come to the stop sign in North Fryeburg, take a left.

Follow this road all the way to the gate. After arriving at the

gate, turn around, head south on Route 113. Be brave, continue to travel south on Route 113 until you are on the East Conway Road again. Follow East Conway Road back to the police station. If your vehicle is still in one piece, maybe you will consider finding a way to rebuild, restructure and redesign these roads suitable for all means of travel.

Misuse of ‘installing’ aids avoiding delegation oversight To the editor: Commissioner Solomon’s letter of Feb. 14 rambles on relative to the efficiency of the pellet boiler system versus oil or propane. No one questioned that premise. It’s a given. I have no idea why she wasted so much space on it.

According to Commissioner Solomon: The word “installation” has now become a concept. I wonder, is that something like, “what does (is) mean?”

The basic question remains: Why did the commissioners use the word “installation” to describe what has now become a $375,000 contract with BPS that totally excludes everything connected to the actual installation process of the pellet boiler system?

The question is even more interesting, knowing the commissioners knew full well that the original $325,000 purchase contract of the Biomass Pellet Boiler System ... included all aspects of installation. There was no mistaking what they wanted us to believe; they went so far as to justify part of the expense of the BPS installation contract by stating that a crane would have to be rented to move the boilers during installation. As further proof of their intent, here are the exact words as stated in the county’s Notice To Bid: “Carroll County Commissioners are seeking proposals for the Installation of a Biomass Wood Pellet Boiler System.” Why, when they were reminded of the fact that the original Biomass Inc. purchase contract included installation, did they stammer and finally utter ... oh BPS is not installing the boiler, they’re just hooking it up. And when that was proven to be in the original Biomass contract as well, they finally admitted they were not installing or hooking it up, all they were really doing was preparing the space.

I believe the true reason for the misuse of the word “installing,” is as

follows: The words “installing the boilers” established a concrete connection to the $23.5 million bond previously approved by the delegation for the construction of the new nursing home.

As long as the commissioners could claim a connection to the original construction project, they needed no additional approval from the delegation to spend the $2 million unused portion of the bond. That’s exactly why they did not request approval from the delegation to spend the $375,000 for work on the old nursing home. If the funds were to be used to “install” the boiler system — which was, after all, a part of the original project — no further delegation approval for use of the funds would be required. However, it would not have been quite so clear cut to claim the “rehabilitation of the old building” was connected to the original bond project and therefore might have required additional approval — which, probably would not have been granted without a proper competitive bid process, in accordance with applicable statutes ... if granted at all. That my friends is exactly what they didn’t want. It is my contention that the commissioners are a little too chummy with BPS. Let me call your attention to the municipal budget act, specifically RSA 33: 3-a, which stipulates, once a bonded project is completed, in order to spend any portion of any unused funds remaining from the project it must first be approved by two thirds of all members of the county convention. In theory, as long as they could keep their pet projects married to the new nursing home they had an almost $2 million slush fund they could spend without any additional approval whatsoever. And that’s what it’s all about.

Rep. Frank McCarthy, Carroll District 1 Conway

I realized my obligation as a volunteer takes precedent To the editor: Hello, everyone. Since the Fryeburg selectmen have decided to lift their “speak no evil” to The Conway Daily Sun, I assume that it applies to me too.

So I’m writing again. For two reasons. The first is because of all of the people who have spoken to me, praising my letters (Everyone especially loved the letter to my Dad) and asking me when I was going to write again.

I’m humbled.

There are two second reasons. Dave Smith and Chet Charette. Although there was nothing in the Bridgton News concerning the “special town meeting,” The Conway Daily Sun managed to get the word out in time for some people to go and speak. (Thanks, Conway Daily Sun!) As volunteers for us, Dave and Chet spoke of integrity and responsibility.

And when I volunteered for the budget committee, I swore an oath and vowed to do my best to watch over our tax money (It turns out that the budget committee is the only oversight of our selectmen and town manager!) I was proud of my four generations here.

Until I got involved.

My first year on the budget committee I spent listening. What I heard was

a bunch of guys reacting to what had already happened, then rubberstamping everything.

I decided that for 2009, I was going to be proactive, not reactive.

That’s when the personal attacks started, being accused of “harassment,” making assumptions and “negativity” by some in town government.

Eventually, being sick of the attacks, and dishonesty, I stopped going to meetings.

Then I decided to go to the “slum” meeting. And when I heard Dave and Chet speak, I realized my obligation as a volunteer to our town takes precedent over my dislike of personal attacks and lies.

So I thank you Dave, Chet, Rachel, etc. for giving me reason to do my best and not quit. It’s people like you who deserve better than what we have in our town government. I have my civic pride back.

And, as far as the “small special interest group,” they are showing their true colors by backing this “slum” deal.

Get involved. Pay attention! I’ll try to keep everyone posted the best that I can.

There’s plenty of fun things to do off the slopes and trails in MWV

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — After a great sunny start to February vacation week, when skiing conditions were described as very favorable, Accuweather.com’s Ski Weather Forecast for Wednesday predicted fair skiing conditions, with possible snow and rain showers and highs in the 40s.

Cloudy skies were predicted for tomorrow, and rain or snow is likely for Friday.

FILING from page one

Last year record numbers turned out to file for various seats. The municipal budget committee, which had as many as 10 vacancies two years ago and often struggled to maintain a quorum, attracted considerable interest for its eight openings. Fifteen people filed for those seats while 11 others sought one of two seats on the board of selectmen.

Current selectmen Larry Martin and Mike DiGregorio have indicated they're leaning against not running for reelection for their two three-year seats on the board.

Four one-year seats are available on the budget committee (Kelly DeFeo, Maureen Seavey, Ray Shakir and David Sordi are the incumbents and Sordi said he does not plan to run again).

State law prohibits full-time employees of the town or the school system from serving on the budget committee.

A three-year term on the police commission is available, but current incumbent David Doherty announced Tuesday he plans to run again for a sixth term.

Four people ran for the threeyear seat last year. Candidates for police commission shall be residents of the town of Conway for at least five years immediately preceding the date of their election and shall not hold nor be

a candidate for any other political office of the town of Conway during their term on said committee.

There are two three-year seats on the planning board (Steven Porter and Steven Hartmann are the incumbents) Three three-year terms as library trustees are opening up (incumbents are Linda Fox Phillips, Dorcas Deans and Barbara Douglas).

Other town positions include: Town clerk/tax collector — one three-year term (Quint is the incumbent).

One one-year term as town moderator (incumbent Rebecca Oleson).

One three-year term as trustee of the trust funds.

One six year term as supervisor of the checklist (William Reilly is the incumbent).

On the school side of the ballot, there are a pair of threeyear seats on the Conway School Board (incumbents are Randy Davison and Syndi White).

Other school positions opening up include one-year terms for moderator (incumbent Doug Burnell), treasurer (incumbent Ted Sares ) and clerk (incumbent Rhoda Quint is the incumbent).

Voting for offices takes place at the Conway Community Building in Center Conway on April 10 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

BUDGET from page one

the minority) and never offered an alternative figure to what the school board is proposing.

The total proposed operating budget excluding special articles is $31,901,212 (the default budget is $31,855,122). Last year's adopted budget was $32,958,413. Conway's share of that price tag is $15 million with the sending towns (Albany, Bartlett, Eaton, Freedom, Jackson, Madison and Tamworth) picking up the rest of the tab. The school board has over 20 warrant articles, totaling $1,586,419, that are not part of the presented budget.

Dick Klement, the school, board's representative to the budget committee, explained a decrease in health insurance rates by nearly $500,000 and a drop in special education costs contributed primarily to the dip in the proposed budget.

"I don't see how we can turn it down," budgeteer Bill Marvel said and praised the school board. "For the overall budget I'm impressed."

"Me too," Dave Sordi, budget committee chairman, said. "I think the school system did a very good job. It's very good news."

Ted Sares, also of the committee, agreed.

"They managed (their budget) as opposed to the town who just let it happen," he said.

"I think it's a big difference to the school's favor, they actually did management — they weren't robotic."

Marvel was pleased to see the drop in health insurance, but cautioned the chief culprits in a rising budget tend to be staffing.

"Increasing in personnel is the worst impact we can make on a budget," he said.

After the budget was approved, Shakir wondered if this was "the appropriate time" to offer an amended figure, but Sordi informed him the vote already had been taken.

The budget committee endorsed 18 of the 20 warrant articles it was charged to oversee. Committee members did not support articles No. 17 and 20.

No. 17 is for $166,794 for three teachers at $54,098 each and $1,500 per school for supplies and equipment to establish a fullday kindergarten program in each of the three elementary school. It is supported by the board 4-3 (Randy Davison, Klement and Rick Breton in the minority).

The budget committee voted 9-8 not to support the article with Maury McKinney, Greydon Turner, Betty Loynd, Maureen Seavey, Mike DiGregorio, Brian Charles, Kelly DeFeo and Klement in the minority.

"I want to make a point, I went to all-day kindergarten 50 years ago," Loynd said prior to the vote.

Joe Mosca, who did not support the article, said he never attended kindergarten but still put himself through a master's program "Personnel is our biggest expense," Marvel added. "We have got to get a handle on it.

We can not continue to expand curriculum beyond this communities financial capabilities."

Swett pointed out he attended half-day kindergarten 77 years ago.

"Conceptually and philosophically I'm for it," Sares said, "but I think the school board should have kept this in the budget and presented it that way." see next page

Klement explained a warrant article was the only way the board could bring the item forward because it failed to garner support by the school board's budget committee (it was a 4-4 tie — the committee is made up by all seven school board members plus Jane Gray, of Eaton, who is the SAU 9 chairman).

The school board itself voted 4-3 to support the article. Klement said had the school's budget committee supported full-day kindergarten, the item would have gone directly into the budget "This was the only mechanism to get it here," Klement said.

"It wasn't necessarily the within the town of Conway that caused it to fail," Sordi pointed out. "If this passes it will be forced upon (sending towns Albany and Eaton) even if they don't it. They will have to pay for something they don't necessarily want."

DiGregorio, the selectmen's representative to the budget committee, wondered if Gray had consulted with the Eaton and Albany school board representatives to see if they wanted all-day kindergarten or not.

"I'm not sure that was ever done," he said.

Budgeteers also narrowly defeated Article No. 20 which is for $98,166 to provide for four academic teams at Kennett Middle School. It is supported by the school board 4-3 (Davison, Klement and Rick Breton in the minority).

The budget committed voted it down 8-7-2 with McKinney, Loynd, Seavey, DeFeo, DiGregorio, Charles and Klement in the minority and Mosca and Turner abstaining.

Klement explained the board's budget committee was in a 4-4 deadlock on the item, which would have killed it, but the board followed the same path as Article No. 17 and made it a warrant article.

"The SAU member (Gray) vote came from a woman whose devotion

to education could not be challenged," Marvel said. "She's been on school board's since most of the people in Conway have lived. She is convinced this can be managed and not have an adverse effect on education."

Article No. 16 — for $22,548 to fund 30 percent of the student advocate position at Kennett High — received the smallest amount of support of any of the articles the budget committee endorsed. The voted was 9-8 in favor of it with Marvel, Mosca, Karen Umberger, Sares, Danielle Santuccio, John Edgerton, Shakir and Swett in the minority.

The post was previously funded through an Ed Jobs grant, which is no longer available. It is supported by the school board 6-1 (Davison in the minority).

School spending frustrates Bartlett residents, officials

to make the point that its getting out of hand, a suggestion the selectmen rejected.

“We can only do what we can do from our end,” selectman Gene Chandler said.

Chandler did acknowledge the school’s approach to spending irks him as well. “It’s been very frustrating over the years,” he said.

“Maybe they could have held off on a bus for a year,” said Pat Roberts, the Bartlett fire chief. People lost their homes, he said, the least the school could do is “show a little compassion.”

Roberts, the second highest paid employee at the town, earns less than 24 teachers at Josiah Bartlett Elementary.

Selectman Doug Garland joked at one point that the town budget hearing was sounding more like the school budget hearing. Even with the budget going up, he said, “we are still lower than most of the small schools in the valley.”

If people want to complain, he said, “show up and vote.”

That was a constant message, one Grant echoed.

“Just show up and vote,” he said. “People need to show up.”

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

BARTLETT — Criticism of the school budget overwhelmed questions of how the town spends money at the Bartlett budget public hearing last Thursday.

Several residents and officials voiced frustration over school spending, pointing out that, while the town has reduced its budget, the savings will be eliminated if the school budget and warrant articles go through.

The school’s proposed 2012–2013 budget is down roughly $150,000 compared to last year, but if all the warrant articles pass overall spending will go up more than $158,000.

The town, meanwhile, is looking at an overall budget that is $360,000 less than last year once federal grants related to Irene repairs come it.

The dichotomy raised a number of complaints from residents.

Scott Grant, a former school board member, said the town should increase its spending at a similar rate to the school just

The position was previously funded through a Carl Perkins Federal Grant which is no longer available. Supported by the board 7-0.

Insuring that special gift

BY DAVE MASON Ah, the sweetness of Valentine’s Day! Hopefully you enjoyed a wonderful day with your loved ones. Amidst the celebrating, don’t forget that if your gift giving (or getting) included an expensive present, you should check to see that you have proper insurance coverage, should anything happen to it.

Generally speaking, standard homeowners and renters insurance policies cover personal possessions; however, there might be a limit on the amount covered for theft. According to the Insurance Information Institute, “Items such as jewelry, furs, collectibles and precious stones are limited to $1,000 to $2,000.”

To make sure your valuables are properly insured, you might want to look into a jewelry floater. Suppose that beautiful ring slips off your finger. Under this additional coverage, “mysterious disappearance” is typically included, which means that while nothing can replace sentimental value, you would be financially protected.

Whether it’s a new set of golf clubs or a beautiful necklace, take these steps to best protect your gifts: * Contact your agent and find out if you have adequate coverage in place. * Keep a copy of the store receipt, and forward a copy to your agent. * Have the item appraised. Premium is based on appraised value. * Take a picture of the item. * Add the item to your home inventory.

Diamonds might last forever, but you might not be able to hold onto them that long. Don’t risk heartbreak over an under-insured piece of jewelry.

BRIEF CASE

White Mountain Survey marks 35th year, changes its name White Mountain Survey Co. Inc. is celebrating its 35th year in business this month.

When the company was founded as a sole proprietorship in February of 1977, the services performed were primarily boundary retracement surveys, subdivisions, septic system designs and other services typically expected of a land surveying business at that time.

Since those early days, the company has evolved to become a full-service land surveying and civil engineering office accustomed to handling any land development project from a simple septic design or boundary survey to the most complex commercial or municipal site planning.

The company is locally owned and locally staffed. The average tenure of all staff exceeds 17 years and the average tenure of the licensed staff exceeds 25 years.

"In order to more accurately reflect the services we provide, we are pleased to announce that effective immediately, White Mountain Survey Co. Inc., has changed its name to White Mountain Survey and Engineering Inc.," states a press release. "This name change does not affect any of the services offered nor does it signify any changes in personnel, but it will help those unfamiliar with our services to more readily understand how we can assist them.

"We pride ourselves in keeping up to date with changing land development regulations," the press release continues. "Our reputation and success rate with securing approvals from the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services and local planning and zoning boards is extremely high."

If you need assistance with any land surveying or civil engineering services or if you require local or New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services permitting relating to land development, contact James F. Rines, president of White Mountain Survey and Engineering Inc., at (603) 539-4118 Ext. 315 or e-mail him at jrines@whitemountainsurvey.com.

Sled dog team to attempt history-making ascent of Mount Washington Auto Road PINKHAM NOTCH — An intrepid team of sled dogs and mushers from the Muddy Paw Sled Dog Kennel of Jefferson will attempt to tackle the Northeast's highest peak on either March 7, 8 or 9, depending on weather conditions.

This will be only the fourth-ever attempt of such a feat and the first time ever in winter. The Muddy Paw mushers and dogs will be following in the historic "paw prints" of Arthur Walden and his famed Chinook team, who were first to summit in 1926, fol-

lowed by the first and only woman, Florence Clark, in April 1932 and then Carl Brown in April 1992.

This event has been undertaken in an effort to not just make history, but raise awareness and funds to help support the more than 130 sled dogs that the Muddy Paws kennel have rescued and care for.

Muddy Paw owners Karen Tolin and Neil Beaulieu have been taking in rescue and second-chance hussee SLED DOG page 22

Panelists and members of the Kennett High Jobs for America’s Graduates program at a focus group last week.

Employers help Kennett High students focus on job market and opportunities CONWAY — Kennett High students who are members of the New Hampshire Jobs for America's Graduates (JAG) program participated in an employer focus group last week, learning about local industries and how to prepare for today's job market.

The event was one of many held statewide, thanks to a $45,000 grant from the Walmart Foundation.

The specific purpose of the grant is "expanding existing relationships and building new relationships with employers and institutions of higher education through a range of activities within an 18-month period."

Some 400 youth will benefit over the 18 months of the grant, according to a press release. NH-JAG students receive intensive career and job readiness preparation, motivational activities through the JAG Career Association, school-to-work transition services, academic remediation, and job and college placement, including ongoing support for a full year

after leaving school.

The employer focus group at Kennett was held in the Mount Washington Valley Career Technical Center's Mineral Spring Cafe. Employers represented included: * Machining and welding: Andrew Shaw of Andy Shaw Design. * Banking: Allen Gould of TD Bank. * Hospitality: Steve Lambert and Rob Graffam, of Red Jacket Resort. * Child care: Jackie Sparks, executive director of Children Unlimited. * Health care: Meg Philllips, director of human resources for Memorial Hospital. * Construction: Charlie Allen, of Glen Builders.

"The employer focus group was a huge success," said Erick Anderson, coordinator of Kennett High see JAG page 22

kies and giving them a home and job for life while supporting their care with year-round dog sled tours.

The couple took their passion for rescue and the rich history of dog sledding in New Hampshire and formed a board of local mushers to create the non-profit N.H. Sled Dog Rescue, History and Education Center. This new non-profit will focus on rescuing northern breed dogs in need, preserving N.H. sled dog artifacts, and educating the public on the history of dog sledding and the care of northern breeds.

In addition to the one team making a summit attempt, an unprecedented opportunity will be offered on two additional sleds. Two guest seats will be auctioned to the highest bidder for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ascend halfway up Mount Washington and experience the world above treeline on a dog sled.

Local school children will also be involved, as they write letters to the observatory staff members on the summit (which will be delivered by the sled dog team) and follow the track of the mushers to the summit.

"It will be exciting to see this adventurous episode of Mount Washington Auto Road history brought to life after all these years. This is not an endeavor to be taken lightly and those involved will certainly earn their place in the history books," said Howie Wemyss, general manager of the Mount Washington Auto Road and Great Glen Trails.

Taking into consideration the changeable conditions on Mount Washington, safety of all two- and four-legged participants is of paramount concern. Muddy Paw Sled Dog Kennel's veterinarian, Dr. John Anderson, DVM of Lancaster, will be supporting the dog teams on the day of the event, and staff members of the Mount Washington Auto Road, Mount Washington Observatory and the Mount Washington State Park will be on standby for any emergency circumstances.

For more information, check out www.dogslednh.com or e-mail Muddy Paw Sled Dog Kennel at info@dogslednh.com. Individuals or companies wishing to sponsor the teams or be involved in the auction for the two available seats should contact Karen Tolin at (603) 545-4533.

the students really connected to and learned a lot from," Anderson continued. "We hope to grow these relationships with employers into opportunities such as apprenticeships or internships for the students to continue their growth as young adults."

NH-Jobs for America's Graduates has over 20 years experience and has served over 20,000 middle and high school students who have multiple barriers to success. The core objectives of NH-JAG are to enable students to graduate from high school and move successfully into the job market, college, or in many cases, both.

The Walmart Foundation grant expands opportunities for employment and higher education at a time of the highest unemployment rate among teenagers in American history.

“Now more than ever, we are looking for ways to address the dropout crisis and youth unemployment in the nation by providing opportunities for young people to complete their high school diploma and prepare them for college and careers,” said Michelle Gilliard, of the Walmart Foundation.

New Hampshire Jobs for America's Graduates operates in two middle schools, nine high schools and one out-of-school program in the state, The results have been consistent over the past 30 years, including a 90 percent-plus graduation rate and overall rates of success of 80 percent-plus for students 12 months after leaving school – on the job, in college, or some combination.

10th annual Hot Chili Cookoff and Chilly Stroll returns to North Conway CONWAY — Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce's 10th annual Chili Cookoff — a Chilly Stroll returns to North Conway Village with lots of hot stuff from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, March 3.

The deadline for entering the event with the chamber was last Friday.

This year's event will once again feature the International Chili Society's District Sanctioned Cookoff that is open to ICS members only. The event will also feature an open People's Choice Class.

The ICS event will feature three categories: red (traditional red chili); chili verde (green chili), and salsa.

The winner will qualify to compete in the Last Chance Cookoff at the ICS World's Champion Chili Cookoff to be held in Charleston, W. Va., in October. Judging is to be done by an official ICS chief judge and official scorekeeper.

The People's Choice division is open to non-ICS cooks. Entries in that class will be judged on a combined total of attendees' votes and judges' votes. In addition to cash prizes and trophies for the top entries, trophies will be awarded for third place, and in the following categories: best chili booth theme, best cornbread in the valley, and best crazy hat.

Participants purchase a passport and take a walk see CHILI page 26

Mild winter means early start to maple season Although early, the maple season in New Hampshire has begun. Due to the non-winter weather this February, sap has started to run in some parts of the state, and sugar makers have begun the annual ritual of converting the clear sap into "liquid gold" — maple syrup.

Gov. John Lynch has declared March 24-25 New Hampshire Maple Weekend. Maple Weekend is an

annual open house held by the maple producers of the state. Nearly 100 sugar houses will be offering samples of syrup, maple products and refreshments. Some locations will have petting farms, pancake breakfasts and other family activities.

Rotary club makes donation to White

Chocolatefest Feb. 26 Mountain Community Health Center

I’m not a chocolate fanatic. It’s something I enjoy but not something I have to have. I’m also willing to share it. I tell you this because it reminds me of two old friends I had. They were both extraordinary women.

They were good wives and mothers, kind spirited, and generous to a fault – except when it came to chocolate.

I remember one weekend when they both came up north with their families and on the way up Cathy’s husband stopped at a candy store and bought some rather exceptional chocolates to share with us. Having arrived and settled in, these two moms let each of their children select a piece of chocolate but when the children became distracted with other things, these two fine, generous ladies proceeded to hide what remained of their treasure. Now, if one chose to, I suppose one might assume or perhaps even believe that these two fine, generous mothers hid the chocolate in order to save their children and even prevent them from overindulging. I know better!

Speaking of “chocoholics” I should tell you that Jill has a Gibson day trip planned that involves a good deal of chocolate. It’s the annual Inn to Inn Chocolate Tour sponsored by the Mount Washington Valley Ski Touring & Snowshoe Center. The Gibson van will leave the center at noon on Sunday, Feb. 26, and stop at more than 13 chocolate venues. The cost is $40 which includes the bus tour and samples of chocolate confections at each venue. As Jill likes to say, chocolate is so much more fun with friends. Call 356-3231 to reserve a seat on the bus.

Looking ahead, on Thursday, March 1; 1-3 p.m.

Osher Lifelong Learning Institute will hold its spring class preview and party. Anyone who is over 50 is invited to learn about their programs and register for classes. The free program is at Granite State College, 53 Technology Lane, Conway. Food and raffle prizes will be offered! Conway OLLI, a membership driven organization, will be offering 21 affordable workshops and classes for the fun of it from mid-March through June. Class presenters will be present to share information about their upcoming classes. Members can also take classes throughout New Hampshire all year. Tuition assistance for courses is also available. Call 513-1377 or 447-3970 or go to olli.granite.edu for further information. see GIBSON page 29

CONWAY — The Rotary Club of North Conway recently presented a check to the White Mountain Community Health Center in the amount of $2,500.

When the Rotary learned of the deep cuts by the state to the local health center, they pledged this amount each year for three years.

White Mountain Community Health Center Executive Director Patricia McMurry said, “Multiyear support such as this is important as we recover from a major decline in state financial support. Recovery is a process and will take upward to two years. We are so appreciative that the Rotarians support our efforts.”

Peter Pelletier, president of the North Conway Rotary will be featured in a Bi-State Primary Care Association video at a legislative and business meeting in February talking about the importance of White Mountain Community Health Center to the local community. He points out the health center is good for the local economy through employment of residents who are patrons of local businesses. He also said that White Mountain Community Health Center, through a sliding fee scale, provides affordable health care to employees of small businesses in the valley who lack health insurance.

Rotary is an organization of business and professional leaders united worldwide who provide

207-935-6910 • 603-662-7086

humanitarian service. The members represent a cross section of the community’s business and professional men and women. The Rotary Club of North Conway, yearly completes over thirty programs to improve our community and is also involved in projects worldwide.

Author Ted Sares presents ‘Shattered’ in Jackson Feb. 22

JACKSON — Local author Ted Sares will be giving a program on his latest book, a collection of true crime essays at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 22, at Jackson Public Library.

This is Sares’ fourth book. He has also written “Boxing Is My Sanctuary,” “Planet Boxing” and “Reelin’ in the Years.”

“Shattered” is a collection of essays on true crime, but there’s a twist – because Sares has a personal connection to each of

them. Sares’s book delves deep into lesser-known cases, like those of Chester the Molester Turner, the New Orleans Sniper, and the New Bedford Highway Killings.

The book has been well received. John Kelly, President of S.T.A.L.K. Inc. (System to Apprehend Lethal Killers) says, “‘Shattered’ is an unusual recipe for a delicious read. This book is based on well-researched factual accounts of some of the

Copies of “Shattered” will be available for purchase and signing by the author. There will time for questions following the presentation.

My husband John and I spent a memorable day on Monday, Feb. 20, hiking to Sabbaday Falls in the White Mountain National Forest. It was a beautiful day for a hike, but better than that, it was a beautiful day for a wedding. Our son, Joshua, and his gorgeous fiancee, Krystal Stanton, were married at noon with the frozen waterfall and ice-encrusted river in the background. He was as handsome as always and she looked like an ice princess. She sparkled brighter that the sequins on her wedding gown. They were married by Jessica Zarenko, owner, along with her husband Bruce, of the Cabernet Inn in North Conway. This wedding was the first she has performed as a Justice of the Peace. She helped to make the day very special and we’d like to thank her for being a part of their special day. We’d also like to thank Megan Bailey, their photographer, also from North Conway, who risked life and limb to take some amazing shots on icy terrain. Congratulations Josh and Krystal. We love you.

North Conway Library holding Cabin Fever raffle CONWAY — Despite the long wait for snow and true winter, there is little doubt in anyone’s mind that this winter will soon feel endless and it might become hard to fight North Country winter ennui. The North Conway Public Library is preparing to step into the breach and rescue you from the perils of cold, dark boredom with the aptly named Cabin Fever Raffle.

The library has three baskets of blah-fighting goodies just waiting for you to win one of them. For those who want to sink in and savor the cozy goodness of long winter days and nights, there is the “Sit By the Fire Basket” which contains two large mugs, a variety of cocoas, teas, coffees, marshmallows, scones, cookies, chocolates and, a good book to read while cozying up with the fire. Perhaps best of all in this basket is a gift certificate for a homemade apple pie, to be baked by Kearsarge Pie Company’s own Cathy Dowling. All you’ll need is a fire to sit by, and maybe your bunny slippers.

If you prefer to hunker down and do you best to personally escape the discontent of winter, the “Spa Basket” might be more your cup of tea. This relaxing basket contains soap, bath salts, shower gels, lotions, GIBSON from page 27

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is easy to tell where you stand on an issue, because you have no problem communicating your true feelings. This could lead you to a dicey social situation today. It’s safest to avoid discussing religion and politics.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). To avoid realms that are novel but unnecessary, silly but useless, delightful but trifling, you’ll have to reel yourself in.

But should you? Great joy is likely to come from what’s unnecessary, useless and trifling.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You love a challenge. Your desire to overcome the odds may indeed be the secret to your success. Just be sure you’re really choosing worthy challenges instead of making ordinary things harder than they have to be.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

There are powerful indications that good fortune and continued blessings will come from a partner, especially if your partner happens to be peaceful, companionable and considerate.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your social mojo is dialed up. You’ll somehow avoid the quills of spiky personalities, warm up the cold ones and break through to the distant ones. You’ll bridge gaps and bring people together.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 22).

You’ll be more direct than ever when it comes to getting what you want. It’s as though you’ve been circling around a prospect for years, and now you’ll finally home in on it. Your talent for attracting helpful people and funding is highlighted in March, July and November. April brings an important union.

Taurus and Aquarius people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 4, 48, 20, 14 and 16.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Even though you’ll find a prospect intimidating, you’ll take the initiative to connect and go forward. It starts with a handshake. You’ll turn strangers into friends.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Drug companies are careful to point out (usually with a fast-talking announcer) that medication may have side effects.

You’ll see other instances in which socalled solutions may bring with them a host of other problems.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s a day of small but meaningful wins, the kind you will be able to build on in the near future. Set your sights on an interesting goal that you can achieve with what you have and know right now.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s one thing to be humble; it’s quite another to devalue your achievements. Speak up, especially since there are those around you who will take credit for just about anything, including whatever you don’t take credit for.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Too many things in life are uncontrollable, so we develop habits to keep us in the comfortable rhythm of a pattern that we can more or less predict. Your rhythm may be thrown this morning, but a habit gets you right back in the groove.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You may want something that you know, intellectually, does not make a lick of sense for your life. Somehow that knowledge doesn’t squelch your desire. Would it harm anyone to let yourself have the fantasy for now?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You are constantly thinking of new ideas, ruminating on your next creation and reconfiguring the various ingredients of your life into a novel recipe. Your spirit of innovation makes this day delicious!

In 1973, the United States and China agreed to establish liaison offices.

In 1980, the “Miracle on Ice” took place in Lake Placid, N.Y., as the United States Olympic hockey team upset the Soviets, 4-3. (The U.S. team went on to win the gold medal.)

Page 34 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, February 22, 2012

by Abigail Van Buren

EX-GIRLFRIEND WANTS TO REMAIN FRIENDS, BUT WITHOUT BENEFITS

DEAR ABBY: I dated a guy named “Jake” for two years.

He was my first love and he meant everything to me. Well, things happened and he broke my heart.

After a year of not really talking, Jake is now texting and calling to convince me to be his “friend with benefits.” He tries to sweet-talk me by calling me pet names. Of course, I say no over and over each time he asks on the phone. But the minute we come face-to-face or hang out, I just give in.

There will always be a soft spot for Jake in my heart, and I don’t know what to do. I want to stay friends because he’s important to me, but I don’t want to be his FWB. It brings back painful memories.

How do I say no? Am I overreacting? Should I go with the flow because it’s not a big deal? I feel like I’m in a script for a bad movie. -- WANTS TO MOVE ON IN HOUSTON DEAR WANTS TO MOVE ON: Your ex-boyfriend appears to be a super salesman. The best way not to buy what he’s selling is not to listen to his pitch. The sooner you accept you can’t be “friends” because you lose control whenever you see him, the sooner you’ll be able to write a happy ending to this drama. As long as you sleep with Jake you will not be able to replace him with someone who can give you what you want and deserve, which is a real relationship.

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend of three years, “Patrick,” is smart, successful and wonderful in every way. He dresses extremely well with attention to detail. Many of his friends call him a “metrosexual.”

Patrick never had braces as a child. Now, as an adult, his teeth have caved in and are very unattractive. It surprises me that he would let his teeth go or hasn’t noticed how crooked and deformed they are. I’m afraid to mention it in case it would hurt his feelings. As we are thinking about marriage, the prospect of having to look at Patrick’s bad teeth, that will likely worsen with age, is a deterrent.

Am I being petty and superficial or should I suggest adult braces? Patrick can more than afford them and isn’t afraid of pain or going to the doctor. My own lower teeth could use some work, so maybe I could suggest we both get braces.

I’m not sure what to do. -- BRACING FOR AN ANSWER IN BOULDER DEAR BRACING: By all means talk to your boyfriend about the condition of his mouth as well as good dental health.

If his teeth are as crooked as you have described, his bite is probably also off -- which can cause jaw problems when he’s older. Your idea of getting braces with him is a good one, and I agree it’s worth pursuing because you won’t appear to be criticizing him. I hope he heeds your suggestion.

DEAR ABBY: My landlord likes to wander around the yard and driveway wearing only a towel around his waist. Sometimes he goes out of his way to talk with me while “dressed” that way. Should I be concerned? -- CALIFORNIA RENTER DEAR RENTER: Probably not, unless his towel “slips,” or California experiences more gale-force winds such as the ones that occurred last December.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — A pair of Kennett Middle School students — Andrew Doherty and Zoe McKinney — took top honors in a 3.5 kilometer skate race in North Conway’s Whitker Woods recently. It was a good day for Mount Washington Valley skiers, as Josiah Bartlett Elementary School took team honors on the day in a six school field.

Doherty won the boys race, topping a field of 29 other skiers in a winning time of 10:41. Teammate Kyle Alber was second, 10:46, while Josiah Bartlett’s Jackson Ross-Parent rounded out the top three in 11:12.

Josiah Bartlett took the top team spot with a score of 383, just nipping Kennett, 381, followed by Kingswood, 281; White Mountain, 175; Interlakes, 15; and Moultonborough, 85.

For the girls, Zoe McKinney bested a 32-skier field to win in 1:20. Mary Kretchmer, of Kingswood, was second, 11:36, followed by Nina Badger, of Josiah Bartlett, third, 11:41.

Interlakes won as a team with 359 points followed

by White Mountain, 354; Moultonborough, 352; Kingswood, 290; Kennett Middle School, 263; and Bartlett, 192.
