CENTER HARBOR — An Ashland man who fell overboard into the waters of Lake Winona on Sunday morning passed away despite the valiant actions of Craig Lutz of Center Harbor who saw the mishap from shore and promptly went to the rescue.
After being pulled from the water, Spencer Hadlock, 66, was taken first to Lakes Region General Hospital then to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center where he passed away. A statement released to the news media by New Hampshire Marine Patrol Monday evening did not specify the time or cause of Hadlock’s death. see WINONA page 11

The third annual Bow Wow Fest was held on Saturday and drew more than 100 dogs of all shapes and sizes and well more than 100 people. The event, supported by Melcher & Prescott, raised funds for both the further construction of the recreational trail as well as a critical surgery for the new Gilford police dog. Organizer Claire Hebert said $1,500 was raised for the operation, which was collected from event registration fees, private donations and the sale of special treats created by My Coffee House. Above, talent and costume contest judges Kyle, Gretchen and Patrick Gandini evaluate the skills of dogs as they pass. Gretchen Gandini is the executive director of the WOW Trail organization.
