It’s Apple Picking Time in the Lakes Region! By Kathi Caldwell-Hopper “Surely the apple is the noblest of fruits.” Henry David Thoreau This is the time of year that apple orchard owners throw open their doors and invite an eager public to pick apples. For many, it marks the changing of the seasons from summer to fall. Farmers have been tending their apple orchards for months, through a variety of weather conditions. Apples are now ready for picking and families can enjoy an afternoon spent at an orchard with apple picking, wagon rides to the orchards, live music, cider donuts, baked goods and more! Cardigan Mountain Orchard in Alexandria (in the Newfound Lake area) is a wonderful orchard in a country setting; the original orchard trees were planted in the 1930s, producing a variety of apples. More trees have been planted over the years and it is a very scenic, must-visit-every-autumn Newfound Lake location. The orchard is open for pick-your-own apples with about 15 varieties. Choose from Macs, Gravenstein, Honey Crisp, Red and Golden Delicious, Empires and more. The orchard is in a beautiful setting with views and an old-fashioned atmosphere. Cider donuts are available during apple-picking season. The orchard is located at 1540 Mt. Cardigan Rd. in Alexandria; call 603-744-2248. The orchard owners also operate the Cardigan Country Store and the Or-
chard Bistro at 231 Lake Street in Bristol. The store takes one back to the days of old when country stores were the meeting place in every town. The store features apples, produce from local farms, creative work from artisans and craftspeople, as well as baked goods, preserves and more. The Orchard Bistro serves breakfast and lunch and on Friday and Saturday nights, dinner also is served. The store and Bistro are

open year round and the orchard will be open until approximately Halloween (call for updates). Butternut Farm in Farmington has many varieties of pick-your-own apples, including Macs, Cortlands, Honey Crisp, Gala, Fuju and more. They’re open every day except Mondays, from 9 am to 5 pm during the picking season. For the latest apple updates, call 603-335-4705. To reach the farm stand,
call 603-231-6066. Purchase apples or other treats at the stand, such as tasty homemade pies, donuts, apple cider, and other items. The orchard has a cider house with cider samples; you also can bring your own growler to fill with cider. Butternut Farm is located at 195 Meaderboro Road in Farmington and online at www.butternutfarm.net. Surowiec Farm at 53 Perley Hill Road in Sanbornton has been in the Surowiec family for many years. There are a number of varieties of apples available, including Macintosh, and Cortlands, Honey Crisp, Macouns and more. Cider and delicious homemade cider donuts also are available. The farm is open seven days a week from 9 am to 5 pm and can be reached at 603286-4069 or at www.surowiecfarm. com. Stone Brook Hill Farm in Gilford has apple trees on over 12 acres. It is a great farm, with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and beautiful views. Visitors can choose from several different varieties of apples including Macintosh, Cortland, Ginger Gold, and more. Enjoy an old-fashioned hay wagon ride into the orchard to pick your apples (on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 am to 2 pm), and then return to the farm stand and choose from a beautiful selection of mums and pumpkins for your fall decorating, among other items. Before you leave, don’t forget to buy some delicious cider. The farm is located at • Apples Continued on page 4

Open Wednesday through Sunday from 9 am to 5 pm, you can visit Smith Orchard at www.smithorchard.com or call 603524-1674 for more information. It is apple-picking time at Hackle-
boro Orchards at 61 Orchard Road in Canterbury. This great orchard has been around for over 25 years, growing high-quality fruits and vegetables.

Meadow Ledge Farm at 612 Rt. 129 in Loudon has something for everyone, from apples (in store and pick-yourown), to pumpkins, produce, crafts, baked goods, gift shop items, mums, and of course, their famous madewhile-you-watch cider donuts. While you wait for the wagon to take you to the orchard, enjoy the music of live bands; the schedule of music favors bluegrass, country and folk, and snack on your cider donuts while sitting at a picnic table. The family farm has been operating since 1974 and every year has a great variety of apples. Call 603798-5860. If you are out for a drive to look at the foliage, plan your trip around a visit to Romac Orchards at 1149 H Road in Acton, Maine.

The Hardtacks: “Songs from the Civil War Era” The Hardtacks will perform songs from the Civil War era on Tuesday, October 2 as part of the Wright Museum’s 2018 Lecture Series, sponsored by Ron Goodgame and Donna Canney. Entitled “Rally ‘Round the Flag: Songs from the Civil War,” the event will provide a musical look at the politics, personalities, and perspectives that remade a nation in the Civil War era. According to Mike Culver, Wright Museum executive director, the folksongs, ballads, and bawdy tunes from that era helped create a bond between the men fighting the war and the greater efforts that won the war between the states. “This kind of music, and the participatory elements of performance were crucial cultural practices that made for unity and the sense that the individual was tied to the nation at war,” he said. Audience members will be encouraged to sing along in an engaging,
exploratory forum as The Hardtacks bring new life to lyrics, documents, and visual images from primary sources. Through camp songs, parlor music, hymns, battlefield rallying cries, and fiddle tunes, they will examine the folk song as a means to enact living history, share perspectives and influence public perceptions of events. “Rally ‘Round the Flag: Songs from the Civil War” takes place form 7 to 8 pm. The Wright Museum’s Lecture Series takes place every Tuesday through the end of the season, which concludes on October 31. Admission is $3 for members and $8 for non-members. Seating is limited, and reservations can be made by calling 603-569-1212. The Wright Museum, located on Center Street in Wolfeboro, is open daily through October 31 from 10 a to 4 pm, Monday through Saturday, and noon to 4 pm on Sundays.

Livestock Talks where you’ll learn about the hard work and dedication that goes into raising animals, and Animal Fence Talks, a Team Wagon Competition, Oxen and Steer Trained Pairs, and a Hand Milking Demo. It’ll be another action-packed day at the Sandwich Fair! Finally, on Monday, October 8, there will be special pricing for seniors and free admission for members of the military who bring their identification cards. Exhibits will be open from 8 am to 5 pm, with rides opening at 9 am. Many animals will be featured in the 4-H Beef, Horse, Sheep/Open Sheep, Dairy, Working Steer, and Swine Shows. There will also be Ox Pulling and an Oxen Cart Obstacle Course. 4-H’ers will be on hand for Livestock Talks and Animal Fence Talks, and a Working Steer Cart Class Pull. Other pulls on Monday will include the popular Pickup Truck Pull and The Sugar Hill Snubbers Lawn Tractor Pull. For me, the most entertaining events are the Women’s Skillet Toss, and the equally fun Gentlemen’s Keg Toss (don’t worry, they’re empty!). Enter these crowd-pleasing activities and flex your arm muscles. Entertainment on Monday will be provided by MC’s Professor Paddy Whack and Joe Howard, with catchy tunes by the Ossipee Mountain Boys Band and Annie and the Orphans. Mo the Clown will be on hand again to made balloon creations for eager kids, and delicious
you like for just $20. My kids love the rides, with the bumper cars being their favorite. While they’re on the rides, I’m usually enjoying a caramel apple. It’s a fall tradition for me. We also enjoy looking at the interesting photos in the photography exhibit, and like to see which photos won a ribbon. There’s a Lego competition, too, and it’s cool to see the young entrants’ creativity. We also make sure to walk through the building with a variety of different chicken breeds and adorable bunnies on display. Children are amazed at the giant, award-winning pumpkin that sits nearby. It makes for a great photo-op! We never miss the Women’s Skillet Toss event, either. Traditionally, we’ll share a bag of fried dough nuggets, getting powdered sugar on our shirts while we marvel at the strength of the competitors. I’m looking forward to the memories we’ll create this year at the fair! Don’t miss it! The Sandwich fairgrounds are located at 7 Wentworth Hill Road at the junction of Routes 109 and 113, in Center Sandwich. The Fair offers free parking in a large lot off Squam Lake Road, and additional free parking is available at locations on Route 113. Fair organizers ask that you leave dogs at home, since they are not allowed at the fair. The rides and midway will remain open after the exhibits close, until the crowds thin out. For more information, visit the Sandwich Fair’s Facebook page or www.thesandwichfair.com or call the fair office at 603-284-7062.

By Sarah Wright One of the most popular fairs in the Lakes Region is during Columbus Day weekend, and it’s an enjoyable experience for the whole family! I’ve been taking my boys to Sandwich Fair for years, and we always have a great time.

Animals are featured in the Open Goat, Horse, and Beef Shows, and in the Miniature Horse Demonstration. The 4-H Dog Show will introduce a new “Stuffie” class this year for children too young to enter their own real dog. Children can enter their favorite stuffed dog instead, and a 4-H’er will be on hand to help them experience the fun of competition. Children will also enjoy watching the amazing Joe Howard, Magician, or receiving a playful balloon creation from Mo the Clown. The Granite State Disc Dogs will be on hand to show off some amazing jumps, with Ox and Steer Log Skidding, Pig Handling, and a Hand Milking Demo to round out the day. I’m curious to see what strategies the pig handlers use. I’m also excited to see Roderick Russell, the Mentalist and Sword Swallower. The 60’s Invasion Band will provide the soundtrack for the day of fun at the fair. Sunday, October 7 is not only Family Day, but it’s the most popular day, so arrive early! Exhibits are open from 8:30 am to 6 pm, and the rides and midway open at 9 am. You’ll see beautiful Gymkhana horses and the Single Horse Twitch event.

Fourth Annual NH Pumpkin Festival Celebrates Fall in Laconia By Rosalie Triolo “Pumpkin Festival started out as a gift to a community from its downtown merchants. It became a gift to the world.” In 1991 Nancy Sporborg founded Pumpkin Festival and ran the event from 1991 to 1995 and again in 1999 to 2000. Nancy lives in Keene, New Hampshire and is the creator of the Pumpkin Festival there. (Nancy is also the author of “It’s Not the Hike,” published by Bauhan Publishing LLC.) Let It Shine, Inc. is a non-profit organizer of the Pumpkin Festival in Keene, NH. The City of Keene passed along to the City of Laconia the idea of bringing together a community, the

spirit of family and friends gathering, the creativity, and the art of “making magic happen” with the Annual Pumpkin Festival. Approaching its fourth year of celebrating Pumpkin Festival, the Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce has added to and embellished upon those elements of ideas which originated in Keene. President of the Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce and Organizer of the Laconia, New Hampshire Pumpkin Festival, Karmen Gifford arduously works on making this event a success. The two-day event begins Friday, October 12 from 4 to 8 pm and Saturday, October 13 from noon to 8. As we spoke of some of the many Pumpkin Festival events, Karmen’s enthusiasm for her job and the Pumpkin Festival is evident. She began by describing a popular family event, The Zombie Walk. “Everyone, young and old alike, dresses up as a zombie, or they might have a favorite zombie. Hosted by the Downtown Gym, this family event involves a stroll through the streets of Laconia while the HAWK 104.9FM is live on site. Zombies are welcome to bring their own carved-out pumpkins from home, which will be placed on

the 34-foot high Pumpkin Tower. Some Zombies may prefer to purchase a pumpkin at the festival on Friday for a fee of $10.00 and carve it out at the carving station. The pumpkin will also be placed with other pumpkins on the Pumpkin (Jack-O-Lantern) Tower.” When asked how many people attend the New Hampshire Pumpkin Festival, Karmen explained, “We use a drone for an approximate count. Last year, there were over 40,000 Pumpkin Festival goers. The Pumpkin Festival attracts not only local Laconia citizens, but Festival lovers from surrounding towns and/or states come to enjoy the attractions, the food vendors, craft vendors and the magic of the event.” Whether you are an antique or classic car enthusiast, or perhaps muscle or jacked-up sports cars are more your style, there is a car for everyone’s preference at the Jumpin’ Jack Car Show on Beacon Street West on Saturday of the event from noon to 3 pm. The Belknap Mill, built in 1823, is an historic site and the official Meetinghouse of the State of New Hampshire. Additionally, it is the oldest unaltered brick textile mill in the U.S. The Belknap Mill also will be the sponsor of The Riverside Duck Derby. This wild race takes place on the Winni River, where hundreds of red-billed, bright yellow rubber ducks compete in a down-river, over-the-falls race to win prizes. To learn more about the history of the Belknap Mill, visit www. belknapmill.org. Love a challenge? Then you will want to participate in The Amazing Race, sponsored by Lake Opechee Inn and Spa. The Race consists of teams of four members each, who must decipher and solve clues, complete challenges, and beat the clock to win prizes. • Pumpkins Continued on page 8

She fell in love with them while visiting the Neon Museum in Las Vegas, propelling her on a journey to document 30 years of the golden neon age in New England. The book is not a complete catalog of all thing’s neon but rather a documentation of signs that were meaningful to people, reminding them of places that generated happy memories…the neon sign at Weirs Beach being one of them! Sarah Whelan possesses a master’s degree in criminal justice with 20 years of experience in the field. Her book, “The Struggle Within” is her first

novel. A Connecticut native, her book touches on many of the inequalities in the criminal justice system. Her motive for the book was not only to entertain and tell an interesting tale, but also to help readers gain a new perspective on injustice. She makes her living as a writer of both magazine articles and grants. Come and meet the authors on Saturday, October 6 from 11 am to 1 pm at Annie’s Book Stop, located at 1330 Union Avenue in Laconia. Complete your leaf peeping drive with a lively talk with these knowledgeable authors!
• Pumpkins Continued from page 6 The Laconia Harley-Davidson Hideout Stage in Veterans Square is the venue for Boston’s “All You Got” live music on both Friday and Saturday nights of the Festival. Laconia Eye and Laser is sponsoring an 18 Ft. Staircase Climb. Those who make it to the top will enjoy a birdseye view of the Festival, and while there they can take photos of the 34 ft. Pumpkin Tower. This is the third year Hiller Orthodontics will sponsor the Kids Tractor Pull. Kids will pedal kid-size tractors with sleds attached. The sleds are weighted with pumpkins. Pumpkins are added to the sleds as they progress along the track. Realtors sponsor Curling for Kids, which will feature future Olympic Curling participants! Kids are given brooms and pumpkins and taught how to sweep (brooms) the stones (pumpkins). All kid’s activities are non-profit. As Karmen said, “Pumpkin Festival is meant to bring the community together - businesses, families, civic groups, kids, and schools. It is Everyone’s
Festival.” When it’s time for lunch or dinner, you can stroll down a street where food trucks are lined up preparing delicious and tasty dishes for everyone. After eating, want to buy something special for yourself or a friend or loved one? There are craft vendors displaying their hand-crafted creations at the Festival. What is there to do after the Pumpkin Festival? If you want to stay in the Lakes Region for a while, there are hiking trails, foliage train rides, interesting places around Lake Winnipesaukee and Squam Lake to visit. The week after the Festival there is Pumpkin Chuckin’ at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Using catapults, air cannons or other devices of propulsion, pumpkins are launched high into the air and some obtain a distance of one-mile. You can view other Pumpkin Festival events, and places to stay, if you are planning to remain in the area, on the Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce website at www.lakesregionchamber. org. If you would like to bring your leashed dog to the festival, it is permissible, but you are required to bring a leash and a waste removal bag.

Wolfeboro Library’s Biography Book Group The Wolfeboro Public Library has announced its next book discussion group for all readers who are interested in the genre of biography/autobiography, as well as those who would like to explore reading these types of books. The meeting of the group will be held at 6:30 pm on Tuesday, October 16 at the library, with the chosen book being “Shirley Jackson – A Rather Haunted Life,” a 2016 publication by author Ruth Franklin that won the National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography. Still known to millions primarily as the author of “The Lottery,” Shirley Jackson (1916 to 1965) has been curiously absent from the mainstream American literary canon. A genius of literary suspense and psychological horror, Jackson plumbed the cultural anxiety of postwar America more deeply than anyone. In this book, Ruth Franklin reveals the tumultuous life and inner darkness of the author of such classics as “The Haunting of Hill House” and “We Have Always Lived in the Castle.” The New York Times book review stated, “With this welcome new
biography, Franklin makes a thoughtful and persuasive case for Jackson as a serious and accomplished literary artist; [Franklin] sees Jackson not as an oddball, one-off writer of horror tales and ghost stories, but as someone belonging to the great tradition of Hawthorne, Poe and James, writers preoccupied, as she was, with inner evil in the human soul.” The biography/autobiography book group meets every other month, with the focus on people from all time periods and walks of life. Unlike the library’s other two book groups, this one meets in the early evening, in order to give people with daytime obligations a chance to participate. Refreshments will be served at the book chat. Pick up a copy of the book at the library today – the library is located on South Main Street and is open Monday through Thursday 9:30 am to 8 pm and Friday and Saturday 9:30 am to 5 pm. For more information, call 603-5692428 or visit www.wolfeborolibrary. org.

Then Becky brought him out of it. “It’s strange because I was supposed to be the one trying to save her, but she was, all along, saving me. She told me not to give up, to keep writing and publish this crazy story I’ve been working on – Relapse. And to make another record. Eventually, I had no choice but to listen. Becky was bald and promising me that everything was going to be okay.” In the meantime, the two have spent a considerable amount of time in recovery, focused on the road ahead. Robert says that the only thing that mattered was the cure. The doctors have worked miracles. It’s a heartfelt story you’d have to hear to believe. They’ve disappeared to the mountains several times, gotten lost on purpose, and gained a lot of perspective while getting back to basics in the Adirondack wilds. There Robert finished the novel he says is, “Absolutely the most ludicrous thing you will ever read. But Becky endorses it.” He got a publisher, finished the
new record in Nashville - and there’s a whole new adventure about to unfold. The nationwide “Relapse + Revival” tour is about much more than promoting a book and a record. It’s a chance for the dynamic pair to see the whole country and have a grand adventure – just like Becky hoped for, when she was in treatment. Now Becky is in remission – and the future has never looked brighter! See Robert Hunter perform acoustically – live at Winnipesaukee Playhouse, brought to you by the Innisfree Bookshop in Meredith. The show will be on October 7 at 6 pm. Get a copy of the book Relapse with every ticket purchase and meet Becky, the courageous and tenacious girl, who inspired Relapse, revival and everything after. Admission is $25 in advance and $30 at the door and includes a copy of the book Relapse. Tickets are available online at www. winnipesaukeeplayhouse.org or by calling 603-279-0333.

Love’s Labour’s Found
Sandwich-based Theater Group Brings Shakespeare to the Region By Mark Foynes For nearly two decades, Advice to the Players has mounted big productions in a small but special place nestled in the foothills of the White Mountains. Since 1999, the Sandwich-based theatre group has specialized in bringing the works of William Shakespeare to the people of the region. Sandwich is a town of about 1,300 year-round residents, so it’s not a place you’d expect to find a thriving non-profit theater. Especially one as innovative and education-focused as Advice to the Players (ATTP).
Jessie Chapman is the organization’s executive director. She grew up in the area and has a long connection with ATTP, having attended several of its acting workshops prior to earning degrees from Plymouth and Brooklyn College. Since 2007 Chapman has been working with ATTP in various capacities - as an actor, a teacher, and an administrator. The organization is quite multifaceted. The core of its mission is to mount the kind of high-quality productions for which you’d ordinarily need to travel to Concord or Manchester - or perhaps

even Boston. This past season featured three major productions, which included King Lear and Love’s Labour’s Lost. Regarding the latter play, which completed its run last month, the ATTP website summarized: “The King of Navarre and his three companions swore off the company of women for three years to study and fast - but then the Princess of France and her three brilliant ladies arrive on a diplomatic mission and all is for naught. A hilarious comedy about love, principle, and the battle between the sexes.” Chapman said that each season ATTP also features a contemporary-era play that draws inspiration from one of the Bard’s works. The 2018 season featured a new play called The Taming. In it, the central character, the beautiful Katherine, “has political aspirations to match her beauty pageant ambitions. All she needs to revolutionize the American government is the help of one ultra-conservative senator’s aide on the cusp of a career breakthrough, and one bleeding-heart liberal blogger who will do anything for her cause.” Chapman said visionary founder Caroline Nesbit launched ATTP nearly 20 years ago. Having taught theatre at the progressive Community School in Tamworth for many years, she came to recognize that there was an unmet demand for quality drama in the area, and for Shakespeare in particular. Since Nesbit’s establishment of the non-profit theatre group, its mission has expanded to encompass other types of programming such as improv and music. “I continue to draw inspiration from her example,” Chapman said. For her part, Nesbit remains very much involved as ATTP’s artistic director, an instructor, and an actor.
In addition, ATTP helps inspire young people to appreciate live performance through a series of workshops that are integral to their approach to theatre. For example, its summertime Shakespeare Drama Camp, which offers “Performance-Based Programs for All Ages” takes place in late July. For children aged five to seven, the program introduces participants to the art of theatre through game playing; kids from eight to 12, can build on some basic elements by learning and performing a Shakespeare play; and for youth ages 12 to 15, they learn voice, movement, and stage technique. There’s also a Young Players’ Practicum in August for young thespians 13 and up, allowing them to further hone their skills and perform in an ATTP production alongside professional actors. “There’s a real mentorship aspect to it,” Chapman said. She noted ATTP’s youth programs offer “a place where teens can find their voice.” She added that the summer workshops and the opportunity to perform with professionals combine to serve as “something of a proving ground.” Chapman added that many of the youth form strong bonds with ATTP, go off to college, and return to Sandwich after getting some professional onstage experience, in effect creating a talent development pipeline. While it might seem like it would be an uphill slog to attract top professional talent from the region and beyond, Chapman said that it’s really not difficult at all. She cited a variety of reasons. Firstly, the timing of ATTP’s program helps fill gaps in • ATTP Continued on page 15

October 1, 2018 • ATTP Continued from page 14 actors’ work schedules. Additionally, the organization is networked with professional groups like the Shakespeare Theatre Association Actors Equity Association; these types of organizations often will refer actors to small organizations like Advice to the Players. And since ATTP has been inspiring young talent for 19 years, the theatre group has established a strong alumni network, with many former students having gone on to establish stage careers of their own. “With the actors who started here, there’s a particular sense of giving back,” Chapman said. In addition to educational programs that it offers onsite, ATTP has traveling outreach programs to schools year round. The website describes the inschool workshops as being designed to “engage students with Shakespeare’s stories and language in a variety of ways accessible to multiple learning styles. Our on-your-feet imaginative approach succeeds with students who have tons or no prior experience with Shakespeare—and everywhere in between.” Some schools take advantage of these traveling programs as a way to orient students prior to a field trip to attend an ATTP performance. Chapman added that an equally important part of ATTP’s mission is its commitment to community engagement. “Pretty much every play has a mix of professionals, actors from right here in the area, and students from our workshops,” Chapman noted. She added that there’s a remarkable amount of acting talent right in the immediate
8 pm. These impromptu gatherings are open to teens and adults; a $5 donation is recommended to help defray facility expenses. These are open sessions. According to the ATTP website, “[N]o experience or reservations needed, just show up... and do some improv!” In the same way, the site continues, “You don’t need to have done any improv before or even stepped on a stage! This is a just-for-fun program, for actors, comedians, storytellers, and none-of-the-aboves, and we’re all learning together.” The Concert Series at the Arts Center at 12 Main features musical performers playing in a wide variety of genres. The 2018 season, which ran from the end of June through August, featured classical piano, Celtic, jazz, lounge music, and Klezmer. Like the improv nights, admission is by donation.

While there are mainstays of the organization’s philosophy and approach, ATTP has evolved over time. Its opening of the Arts Center at 12 Main in Center Sandwich a few years back has allowed the organization to expand its programming, which now includes live music and improv nights. The venue also features gallery space to exhibit the works of local visual artists. The Open Improv Meetup at the Arts Center at 12 Main runs from January through June and takes place on the fourth Tuesday of the month from 6 to

• ATTP Continued from page 15 weekly summer concerts, ATTP hosts intermittent off-season performances in the fall, winter, and spring. As for the organization’s name, Advice to the Players derives from a famous speech in Hamlet where the Danish prince offers counsel to a group of traveling actors by exhorting: “You must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness. O, it offends me to the soul to hear a robustious periwigpated fellow tear a passion to tatters, to very rags, to split the ears of the groundlings, who (for the most part) are capable of nothing but inexplicable dumb shows and noise. I would have such a fellow whipp’d for o’erdoing.” Shakespeare’s Hamlet continued: “Be not too tame neither; but let your own discretion be your tutor. Suit the action to the word, the word to the action; with this special observance, that you o’erstep not the modesty of nature” “This emphasis on nature seems to be in perfect harmony with our philosophy,” Chapman observed, noting the scenic beauty of the local landscape. 2019 will mark ATTP’s 20th anniversary season. Tickets go on sale one month prior to opening night. Soon, ATTP will be updating its website, advicetotheplayers.org, although
Chapman confirmed that Taming of the Shrew and Measure for Measure will be part of the schedule. For more information, call 603-284-7115. If you or a child or grandchild want to perform: A hallmark of ATTP is its high level of community involvement. Chapman said the organization holds open auditions each spring in Sandwich. Dates have not yet been set, but will be announced with plenty of lead-time. To support the ATTP mission: The theatre group is a 501 (c) (3) notfor-profit organization that describes itself as a “unique company of theater professionals, enthusiastic community members and energetic teens that has been performing Shakespeare and offering workshops in New Hampshire’s Lakes and Mountains Region since 1999.” To fulfill its mission of cultural engagement, ATTP derives revenue from individual donors, corporate and foundational sponsorships and grants. Online donations can be made at advicetotheplayers.org/donate. As an aside for the orthographically astute: The careful reader may have noted the alternating spellings and usages of theater and theatre. Chapman explained that both are correct depending on the context. She noted that the word theater refers to the actual building; the actors therein practice the art of theatre. One therefore goes to the theater to enjoy and experience theatre).

Blue Brothers and Computerland at Capitol Center Alt-classical group Portland Cello Project is bringing a huge, orchestral ensemble (including brass, percussion, and guest vocals by Patti King of the Portland band The Shins) to the Capitol Center for the Arts in Concord, NH on Friday, October 26 at 8 pm to perform a night in homage to Radiohead. Expect an evening of unique renditions of classical Radiohead pieces that wander from truly epic to breathtakingly beautiful. Portland Cello Project first performed the record in its entirety in 2012 for the 15th anniversary of the album’s release. Ever since then, pieces of it have remained in the group’s repertoire as constantly evolving musical meditations. All of the cellists in the group are classically trained, and yet, all of them seem to find a unique connection between Radiohead and their musical foundation. The deep layers of sonic ecstasy are reminiscent of so much late-19th-century music of the Western Classical Tradition, but beyond that,
each of the cellists have worked to bring out subtleties they discover that hint at everything from Bach counterpoint at times, to rhythms they initially learned counting and performing Stravinsky. Remember The Blues Brothers? On Saturday, November 2, the Official Blue Brothers Revue is coming to the Capitol Center. The live concert combines the comedy and musical hits from the original 1980 movie starring John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. There have been many imitators, but there is only one duo in North America sanctioned by Dan Aykroyd and Judith Belushi to don the official hat and sunglasses and walk in the legendary footsteps of Jake and Elwood Blues. Discovered in Las Vegas, performers Wayne Catania and Kieron Lafferty capture the infectious humor and unbridled spirit of the Blues Brothers like no one since John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd walked the stage. Backed by a powerhouse band, they deliver a show to remember that is packed with classic hits from the Blues Brothers catalog,
THE CIDER PRESS Kitchen & Bar
including “Soul Man,” “Rubber Biscuit,” “Sweet Home Chicago,” “Rawhide,” and “Gimme Some Lovin’.” Judy Belushi, referring to the duo as anything but an imitation of the original act said, “Kieron and Wayne are not imitators, they live the music and embody the characters. They understand the spirit of The Blues Brothers and revel in the joy of being Jake and Elwood”. Tickets for the shows may be ordered by calling 603-225-1111 or online at ccanh.com. Tickets may also be obtained at the Center’s box office at 44 South Main St., Concord, NH, which is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 11 am to 6 pm. The award-winning Capitol Center for the Arts (ccanh.com) inspires, educates, and entertains audiences by providing a quality venue for the performing arts as well as a wide range

Today, the Capitol Center is home to the 1304-seat Chubb Theatre, the Spotlight Café, The Governor’s Hall ballroom, and the Kimball House, a Victorian mansion.

We Care Fundraising Seeks Non-Profit Partners for 2019 Concert Events Temple B’nai Israel’s “We Care” initiative was named in 2014 after sponsoring two successful concert events in 2013 in which the net proceeds benefitted Lakes Region Community Services and Central NH VNA & Hospice. The model of We Care fundraising includes two concerts each year, in May and October. One non-profit will be selected as the beneficiary for each event. We Care will provide the entertainment, venue, refreshments, logistics and marketing to promote the event. The non-profit will assist in marketing, using their supporters, database of clients and contacts. In addition the partner will run a social media fundraising event in advance of the concert, with the guidance and support of We Care. Since its inception, TBI We Care has raised more than $60,000 for the following organizations: • Lake Region Community Services • Central NH VNA and Hospice • Genesis Behavioral Health • New Beginnings • Voices Against Violence • Camp Resilience • Belknap House As planning begins for 2019, We Care invites small local nonprofits that would benefit from a team of experienced fundraisers to supplement their fundraising efforts. Requests for consideration can be submitted to info@
tbinh.org. The We Care team receives tremendous support from the more than 100 Lakes Region businesses who place ads in the Temple B’nai Israel sponsor book which is distributed at the two concert events as well as the annual Jewish Food Festival in July. In addition to the sponsor book special thanks go to 2018 event sponsors, Meredith Village Savings Bank, Miracle Farms Landscaping Services and Golden View Health Care. TBI We Care concludes its fifth year, and 10th concert, on October 27, bringing back to the area one of the country’s best folk-rock groups, and a We Care favorite: Gathering Time. The group’s seamless vocal blend, inspired guitar playing and precise percussion has deep roots in 1960s folk-rock, with a healthy dash of traditional folk in the mix. We Care has selected Central New Hampshire VNA and Hospice as a repeat beneficiary of the net proceeds from the Gathering Time concert. By purchasing a ticket for $27.50 you will enjoy great music, food, and drink while supporting Central New Hampshire VNA & Hospice. Complimentary snacks and desserts can be enjoyed at 7 pm and the concert begins at 7:45 pm. Purchase tickets at www.tbinh.org. Arrive early for best seats and great refreshments.

Start with Exploration, Find Inspiration at Parade of Homes Members of the Lakes Region Builders & Remodelers Association have worked together to present the latest in home building techniques and neighborhood designs at the 2018 Lakes Region Parade of Homes. “We are proud to show off the local building industry to the community each year during the Parade. Our premier builders and supporting trade professionals are the key to the success of this popular event,” said Brenda Richards, LRBRA, executive officer. “Whether you are in the market for a new home, getting ideas to remodel your existing home, or just want something fun to do, we invite you to be our guest at the 2018 Parade of Homes.” The Lakes Region Parade of Homes is set for Columbus Day weekend, October 6 to 8 from 10 am to 4 pm. This three-day “self guided tour” will showcase 11 beautifully crafted homes and a chance for the public to talk with builders about their building needs. Parade visitors will discover unique homes and floor plans, beautiful communities, the latest in interior design trends and home technology, exterior finishes and outdoor living, and landscaping that will inspire. This year’s homes offer another great mix of custom building options. They include four waterfront homes on Lake Winnipesaukee as well as homes with mountain views, spread out over six area towns including Wolfeboro, Moultonborough, Meredith, Ashland, Laconia and Gilford. There are two interesting build projects that are additions to the main properties and offer a variety of potential uses, including guest or in-law suites, office space or workshop areas and will excite visitors on ways to renovate or build creative spaces. Only one of the homes is for sale (home #10) and the rest are open for your enjoyment. The styles of builds vary from Adirondack, Cape, Classic New England Style and Colonial to a inspired home design from the well known architect Frank Lloyd Wright that will offer nostalgic design surrounded in a beautiful setting in Ashland. Visitors should pay attention to details at the Parade homes: • ENERGY EFFICIENCY: Be sure to ask the builders to give you details
The “Wingspread” residence, which sits high atop Squam River Landing. Built by Sippican Partners Construction, it is one of the stops on the Parade of Homes. (Courtesy photo) on home energy options including: appliances, insulation, lighting, space heating and cooling, water heating and windows and doors. • EXTERIOR SIDING: Be prepared for a variety of exterior finishes to check out including horizontal lap siding, board and batten putting emphasis on the vertical, creating a taller appearance and brick and stone adding texture. • KITCHENS: Although white will always be a classic color for kitchen design, homeowners are shying away from bland hues and injecting warm wood tones and neutrals (example: grays and blues), into the space to give it a warm, fresh and unique feel. • SMART TECHNOLOGY: When many people think technology, they think entertainment. But work extends much further than audio and video. Other important elements like central vacuums and home security can help protect the health and safety of your family. Even if a homeowner isn’t going to install home automation technology as part of their new home construction, planning for those needs down the road helps ensure that the proper wiring and systems are in place behind the drywall. • RICH COLORS THROUGHOUT THE HOME: Warm grays paired with camel, rust, and brownblacks, as well as earthy reds and yellows. (Check out House Parade #9 or House #11 with a dramatic mountain-scape mural.) • KITCHEN SINKS: The modern Farmhouse style will continue to flourish and homeowners are getting cre-
ative with more concrete, stone, copper and granite composite sinks in darker hues of gray, bronze or black. • LIGHTING: Light fixtures, including sconces, lanterns, pendants and chandeliers, are making a comeback as crafty home do-it-yourselfers outfit retro fixtures with new technology for a one-of-a-kind look. Remarkably, one in five homeowners are choosing “smart” lighting that can be controlled via a mobile device or computer. • CUSTOM MILLWORK: Specialty millwork and reclaimed wood walls and detailing will be showcased in many of the homes to create a beautiful ambiance. Visiting a Parade home is a great way to get a first-hand look of how you envision your new or renovated home will look and feel. Whether you see yourself having cookouts on the back deck, with a maintenance-free exterior, or a kitchen that becomes the gathering place at every party, exploring one of the 11 featured homes on this year’s tour is a great way to see into your future and possibly meet your new builder to make your dream home vision become a reality. Parade-goers will have 33 bedrooms to explore and over 30 bathrooms to view on this year’s tour! According to a recent 2018 U.S. Houzz & Home Study on Renovation trends, the home renovation boom continues with half of homeowners planning on projects to renovate in existing homes, with a median planned spend of $10,000$15,000. Kitchen and bathrooms lead for renovation work. Four in five renovating homeowners report that the
kitchen and master bathroom upgrades increased the value of their homes (81 to 83%), far more than any other renovation project. TINY HOUSE FOR SALE! As an extra tiny bonus, the Lakes Region Tiny House will be open for viewing all weekend long. There is no ticket required or cost to view the Tiny House and it is open to the public. The Tiny House is part of collaboration between the Lakes Region Builders and the Huot Tech Center to excite students about careers in the trades. Students from construction and plumbing classes spend the entire school year learning all aspects of building a home from scratch. The Tiny House sits on an 8’x24’ trailer and offers 272 sq. ft. of living area. This home was completed in the spring and is now available for sale. (The proceeds from the sale along with ticket sales from the Parade of Homes benefit LRBRA’s workforce development initiative efforts of inspiring the next generation of building trade professionals.” Tickets cost $20/per person and can be purchased at the first home you visit. One ticket is good all weekend and you can start at any home. To begin your home tour adventure, go to www.lakesregionbuilders.com for a map and directions or for a more interactive experience, download the Parade Craze “App” and search for Lakes Region Parade of Homes 2018. The “app” includes directions to all the homes; photos of the homes, information about the builders and tickets can be purchased on the “app” as well. Visitors can make comments on homes in real time, vote on their favorite features and engage in the experience. Presenting sponsors are Meredith Village Savings Bank, Belknap Landscape, and Dead River Company. Please be sure to check out all of the 2018 parade partners for this event. The Lakes Region Builders & Remodelers Association (LRBRA) is a not-for-profit, professional trade association chartered by the National Association of Home Builders. Volunteer members are dedicated to promoting, protecting and improving the building industry throughout the Lakes Region.

New school year, new season for Poetry Out Loud School is back in session and along with homework, fall sports and exam prep, students across New Hampshire are gearing up for the 2019 New Hampshire Poetry Out Loud program. Each year, up to 45 high schools and high school groups register to participate in the months-long program, giving approximately 10,000 students the opportunity not only to learn great poems by master poets, but also to sharpen their public speaking and presentation skills, making them stronger candidates for positions both in higher education and the workforce. Competitions begin at the classroom level and advance to school championships, which are followed by four regional semi-finals in late winter and the state championship at the N.H. State House in March. National finals, with one competitor from each state, are held in Washington, D.C. While thousands of students participate and not everyone advances to the next round of competition, students consistently report that learning and reciting poetry is an experience that changes their lives. There is no cost to students or schools to participate in Poetry Out Loud, which is organized by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation, and led in New Hampshire by the N.H. State Council on the Arts. A map of schools that participated in the 2018 program is available from the Poetry Out Loud section of the
NHSCA’s website, nh.gov/nharts. To learn more about 2019 New Hampshire Poetry Out Loud, including how high schools and school groups can register, visit nh.gov/nharts. For additional information, contact Julianne Gadoury, New Hampshire State Council on the Arts at 603-2710791, julianne.gadoury@dncr.nh.gov. New Hampshire’s Poetry Out Loud supporters include the Putnam Foundation – a donor-advised fund of the N.H. Charitable Foundation. Other partners include Brightspot Consultants, New Hampshire Public Radio, the Poetry Society of New Hampshire, the New Hampshire Writers Project, Slam Free or Die, the Frost Place, Granite State Ambassadors and the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire. The New Hampshire State Council on the Arts is a division of the New Hampshire Department of Natural and Cultural Resources. It began in 1965 with legislation designed “to ensure that the role of the arts in the life of our communities will continue to grow and play an ever more significant part in the education and welfare of our citizens.” Funding for programs is provided through state appropriations, a partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts and the Conservation License Plate fund. Learn more about the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts at nh.gov/ nharts.

Chillin’ While Grillin’
Columbus Day Grilling By Chef Kelly Ross Welcome to October. This is usually my favorite month of the year. Unfortunately, I also can’t help but think of the first line of Frank Sinatra singing My Way, as in “and now, the end is near.” It will be time for winter jackets, gloves, and boots before we know it. But for now, let’s enjoy what we have. Busloads of leaf peepers are already upon us and traffic is busy again after a couple of weeks of mellowness. Columbus Day Weekend will soon be here, so let’s share some fun ideas for grilling over the long holiday weekend. Although these items will be grilled, most of them will require some work in the kitchen prior and some can be prepped the day before grilling. As usual, it’s all about the sauce and/or marinade. One of my favorite side dishes is something that many people aren’t familiar with, and that is polenta. Polenta is awesome, and like anything else, it’s even better when finished on the grill. Polenta is a staple in Italian cooking and sometimes gets confused with grits, which is a famous southern dish. Both are made with cornmeal, but polenta is made with yellow cornmeal and grits are made from white. The process and the way they are used in cooking are much different though. Another thing people sometimes get confused about is thinking that
cornmeal and polenta are the same thing. Cornmeal is cornmeal and polenta is polenta. The main ingredients in polenta are basic - usually chicken stock or broth, cornmeal and parmesan cheese, but then you can add different ingredients to create it to your own taste and liking. One reason why some confuse grits and polenta is they can both be served right off the stove in a warm, thick but pourable concoction. Most polenta fans in my food circle prefer polenta not right off the stove, although I will always grab a spoonful or two because it is so good. The more popular presentation is to cook it, pour into a pan and refrigerate. Once it sets up, it turns into a solid brick of sorts. At this point, it is usually cut into squares or triangles, and then grilled or browned in a pan. I prefer the presentation and it is much more versatile this way. My first recipe is Grilled Pineapple Polenta with Prosciutto Shrimp. There is fresh pineapple in both the polenta and the shrimp’s marinade/sauce. They work extremely well as an appetizer or as a main course. Grilled Pineapple Polenta For the Polenta: 2 cups chicken stock. (Water can be used, but it won’t taste nearly as good) ½ cup cornmeal ¼ cup parmesan cheese salt/pepper 2 tbsp fresh chopped sage

For the Shrimp: 12 large/xl shrimp, peeled/deveined ½ cup fresh pineapple ¼ cup olive oil 2 cloves garlic, chopped fine ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes salt/pepper 6 thin slices prosciutto For the Sauce: 1 stick unsalted butter ¼ cup fresh pineapple chopped parsley, optional Let’s start with the polenta, as this should be made hours prior to grilling. I love polenta just as a snack, and it will last in your refrigerate for close to week. The process is simple, but you need to babysit it during the cooking process. Put the stock in a sauce pot and bring to a light boil over a medium/ high heat. Very gradually, whisk in the cornmeal. Stir constantly until it starts to thicken, bring the heat down to a simmer, and add the parmesan, pineapple, diced red peppers, sage, and salt and pepper, still stirring. Once incorporated and smooth, but thick, dump into a well-greased 9-in. square pan. With a rubber spatula, smooth the top to an even surface. Press a piece of plastic wrap over the top. Stab through plastic here and there to help let the heat escape, and pop into the fridge until it has completely chilled. For the shrimp marinade, puree the pineapple in a food processor, or if needed, chop it extremely fine. Put half of the pineapple in a small bowl and save the rest for the sauce. Add the olive oil, garlic, crushed red peppers, and salt/pepper and mix well. Add the shrimp and gently mix them into the marinade. Cover and let sit at room temperature for no more than a ½ hour. Now for the simple sauce, melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat until it just starts to burn a little. Take off the stove and add the crushed pineapple. Turn on the grill and get it to a solid medium heat. Make sure the grill is well greased with vegetable oil or pan spray. Take the prosciutto and slice the 6 pieces in half, lengthwise. Wrap each shrimp with a prosciutto slice. Grab the polenta out of the fridge and cut like brownies into 12 squares. Start grilling.

The polenta will generally take 2-3 minutes on each side, the shrimp about the same. Make sure the shrimp is pink throughout. Once off the grill, place a shrimp over each square of polenta, drizzle with the sauce, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. I feel confident this will make your day! The previous recipe had a somewhat tropical theme with all the pineapple, and so does the next one, but in a different way. This is a great appetizer that goes well with some great flavor combinations. Many people have heard of Chicken Satay, and there is no reason why you can’t use chicken in this dish, but this is a Pork Satay with a great coconut peanut sauce. To me, sometimes pork works better because it can usually be cut thicker, which gives it more grill flavor as it takes a little longer to cook than chicken. Pork Satay For the Marinade: 1½ cups coconut milk ¼ cup peanut butter 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice ¼ cup soy sauce 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 jalapeno, finely chopped 2 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro salt For the Sauce: ½ tbsp olive oil ½ cup finely diced onion 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped ¼ cup soy sauce 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice 1½ cups coconut milk 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp ground cumin 1 cup peanut butter; I prefer chunky for the sauce 1 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro The Rest: 1½ lb pork, cut into 1-in. dices wooden skewers soaked in water for at least ½ hour Mix all ingredients of the marinade and add the chunks of pork and refrigerate for 3-4 hours. For the sauce, heat the oil on a medium heat and sauté the onion for a couple of minutes and add the garlic

October 1, 2018 • Chillin’ Continued from page 26 and jalapeno and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce, lime juice, coconut milk, coriander and cumin. Combine well, then blend in the peanut butter and continue to stir and bring the sauce to a simmer. Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro. Skewer the pork and grill on a preheated medium grill for about 4 minutes on each side. If you wish, brush some of the sauce while grilling, but use the bulk of it once they come off the grill. Next on the agenda is one of my favorite gifts from the ocean, and one you don’t see come off the grill very often, and that is scallops. I love all shellfish, and scallops are another of those that are very versatile seafood treats that work in so many ways. You will need large scallops so they don’t fall through the grates of the grill. When it comes to sizing scallops or shrimp, the smaller the number, the larger the item. You will often see them listed like 20/30’s, which means you get 20-30 pieces per pound. You can also see them sized like U10’s or U15’s, meaning you will get less than 10 or 15 scallops per pound. These are what you are looking for when grilling. The grilling process is very simple, as is the sauce. These are like candy to me. These yummy treats are topped with a Lemon Salsa Verde that you are absolutely sure to find scrumptious. Like many recipes, use these as an appetizer or an entrée. This recipe is for 12 scallops. Shrimp with Lemon Salsa Verde The List for the Salsa Verde: ½ lemon, skin on, juiced, seeded and chopped 1 shallot, finely chopped 1 clove garlic, finely chopped salt/pepper 1 cup olive oil ¾ cup finely chopped fresh parsley ½ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro ¼ cup chopped fresh chives For the Scallops: 12 large bay scallops 2-3 tbsp olive oil salt/pepper Squeeze the juice from the ½ lemon into a bowl, then chop the lemon, skin on, very well and toss that into the bowl with the chopped garlic and shallot. Season with salt/pepper and combine
well and let stand for 5-10 minutes. Add the olive oil, chopped parsley, cilantro, and chives. Combine well and let stand until needed. This will yield a cup or so. For the scallops, peel off the side muscle, and lightly combine with 2 tbsp of oil and salt/pepper. Preheat the grill to a well-greased medium/high heat and place the scallops on one of the flat sides and grill for 2-3 minutes. With tongs, gently turn them over to the other side and grill for 2-3 more minutes. Each side should be lightly charred. Put them on a plate and drizzle the Lemon Salsa Verde over them and dig in. Depending on your crowd and what course you are using them for, you will likely want to at least double this recipe, as they will disappear very quickly. Lastly, let’s do a great chicken recipe. When I eat Chinese, one of my favorite dishes is a spicy orange chicken, and this is a healthier take on it. Instead of battered and fried bite-size pieces of chicken, I do this with bone-in thighs, which is my favorite part of the chicken, especially when grilling. The thigh is moister than the breast is, it is cheaper, and I personally think if has so much more flavor. That being said, there is no reason why you can’t use this recipe on any cut of chicken, bone-in or boneless, or pork for that matter. This recipe isn’t as sweet as the Chinese counterpart but has great flavor with a great tang to it. Great marinade and sauce!! Orange Chicken The List for The Marinade: ½ cup fresh squeezed orange juice 1 tbsp orange zest 1 ½ tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice ¼ olive oil 2-3 tbsp of hot sauce, buffalo sauce, or sriracha 2 tbsp Dijon mustard 2 cloves chopped garlic 3 ½ lbs chicken thighs The List for The Sauce/Glaze: 2 tbsp butter ¼ cup honey ¼ cup fresh squeezed orange juice 2 tbsp orange zest ¼ cup of your favorite barbecue sauce 2 tbsp Dijon mustard 1-2 tsp same hot sauce as above For the marinade, combine the juices, zest, oil, hot sauce, mustard and garlic and mix well. Put the chicken in a large Ziploc bag and pour the marinade
over the chicken. Squeeze the air out of the bag, seal it, and shake/mix well. Refrigerate and let the chicken marinade for 3-6 hours. Pull from the fridge 30-45 minutes before grilling. While the chicken has been pulled, start the glaze/sauce in a small sauce pan. Start by melting the butter over a medium heat, then gradually whisk in the honey, orange juice, the zest, barbecue sauce and the Dijon mustard. Crank up your well-oiled grill to a medium/high heat and place the marinated chicken on the grill and lightly glaze the tops of each piece. Close the grill and babysit, because you will likely get some good flames within a few minutes. Between the fat in the skin and the honey in the glaze, you should have no problem accomplishing a bit of char.
Turn after 4-5 minutes and glaze the cooked side of the chicken and repeat the process until cooked throughout. Make sure you save some of the sauce for the final product to glaze them at the dinner table. As I am reading back over this article, my mouth is watering and my tummy is growling. I think it’s time for me to poke around my fridge and freezer and fire up the grill. I hope you have the same feeling. Until next week, when I will be talking about some soups and sauces made from grilled vegetables and fruit, never forget to “Get Your Grill On” and while doing so, make sure you are Chillin’ While Grillin’.

Autumn Activities Around Sandwich By Diane Cook Johnson The 108th Sandwich Fair, held annually on Columbus Day weekend in Center Sandwich, NH will be on October 6, 7 and 8 with a midway sneak preview Friday night. This is a 3½ day event with something for everyone; there will be a few new events on certain days as well. After a long sabbatical, the fair welcomes back the Sugar Hill Snubbers Lawn Tractor Pull on Monday afternoon. Also on Monday, for the second year, there will be a Junior Oxen Pulling Competition, with the addition of a second Junior Class for kids age 12 and under. There also will be pony rides for the first time in several years, and for the third year in a row, the Granite State Disc Dogs will be performing three shows on Saturday. The Sandwich Fair offers something for everyone. The fair features animal competitions, antique tractor pulls, a traditional farmers market, helicopter rides (weather permitting), a full midway and numerous buildings filled with crafts, flowers, vegetables, photos, baked goods, etc. Stage shows will feature music and variety acts throughout the day, and they are included with the general admission ticket. Friday night features the ride preview, where you can pay one price and ride all you want from 4 to 9 pm. Rides, games and food are available. All other exhibits are closed until
Saturday morning. (The word on the street is that Gillette Amusements is going to introduce a fabulous new ride this year. It’s very tall and has swings!) Saturday features an antique auto show that begins at 8 am and concludes with a parade at 1 pm. There will also be numerous animal exhibits and competitions, including the Farmer’s Hitch. There will be a great day of acts on the stage as well. The 60’s Invasion Band, Roderick Russell – Mentalist and Sword Swallower, will each perform two shows, along with Joe Howard the magician. Sunday’s big feature is the Grand Street Parade, which kicks off at 1 pm. In the parade will be the Muchachos Drum and Bugle Corps, along with high school bands, Shriners in their mini cars, and numerous floats. Always at the end of the parade is the “parade of oxen”. It is an amazing site to see these beautiful creatures walking in unison. The theme of the parade this year is “Salute to the Troops”. Please plan to arrive in town early, as traffic gets quite congested by late morning. Other Sunday highlights are the FFA Woodmen’s Field Day competition, horse pulling, and several animal competitions. Entertainment on the stage for the day is The Stuck in Time Band, Jason Tardy Juggling and Comedy Act, and The Don Campbell Band. Monday is packed full of great things. Back for the first time in
several years is the Sugar Hill Snubber Garden Tractor Pull. This will start immediately following the pickup truck pull. If you have not seen this pulling before it is very enjoyable and entertaining to see souped-up garden tractors going head to head. The Women’s Skillet Toss, the Gentlemen’s Keg Toss and Oxen Pulling are a few other highlights. Don’t forget about the baked goods auction at 3:30 pm. All proceeds will be donated to a local food pantry. It is also 4-H Day. There will be numerous animal competitions going on in the rings throughout the day. You will be amazed at the hard work and dedication of the 4-Hers. Monday is also the day the fair honors military service members.

Spirits and Rockin’ October at Rochester Opera House The Rochester Opera House is presenting Lauren Rainbow, an Evening with Spirit on Saturday, October 6 in the historic theater in the downtown Rochester, NH area. Lauren Rainbow is an evidential medium dedicated to bringing healing messages from loved ones in spirit to those here in the living. During a spirit demonstration with Lauren you will witness validating, evidential connections with Spirit and her own unique style of heart-centered messages. A demonstration of Spirit with Lauren will bring tears of joy, lots of laughter and leave you feeling, perhaps, that we are indeed loved and supported by those we know in Spirit. Lauren is a happy medium, spiritual teacher, and sacred journeyer doing performances all over the world. As a medium she has toured the US and Canada, and as a Spiritual Teacher she has empowered many to develop their intuitive gifts. American RUSH Tribute: Lotus Land American RUSH Tribute: Lotus Land will take place at the Opera House on Friday, October 12 at 8 pm in the historic theater. With an unparalleled performance, the American RUSH Tribute Lotus Land brings the force of live Rush to life on stage. Enjoyed by die-hard Rush fans, musicians, and casual music listeners alike, the Lotus Land experience has been heralded as the ultimate celebration of RUSH’s musical craftsmanship and spirited performances.
With the true set-up and sound of the Canadian power trio, Lotus Land delivers the thrill that people expect when they see RUSH in concert. Their performances have wowed sold-out houses in premiere concert venues and their fan base continues to grow nationally and internationally Evil Dead The Musical Just in time for Halloween, Rochester Opera House Productions is thrilled to present Evil Dead The Musical from October 19 to 31. Evil Dead The Musical takes all the elements of the cult classic films, The Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, and Army of Darkness and combines them for one of the craziest, funniest, and bloodiest theatrical experiences of all time. Five college students go to an abandoned cabin in the woods, and accidentally unleash an evil force that turns them into demons. It’s all up to Ash (a housewares employee, turned demonkilling hero), and his trusty chainsaw to save the day. Blood flies. Limbs are dismembered. Demons tell bad jokes… and all to music. The songs in the show are completely off the wall as well. Titles like “All the Men in My Life Keep Getting Killed by Canadian Demons”” has had audiences rolling in their seats and screaming for more! You don’t need to be a fan of Evil Dead to love this show. You don’t need to be a fan of horror to love this show. You don’t even need to be a fan of musicals to love this show. As long as you like having fun…this show is for you. Is it scary? No! Is it gory? No. This is a pure comedy, start to finish. It
has fun with the horror genre, and in doing so appeals to a wider audience than you could ever imagine. Plus, it’s the only show with a “Splatter Zone” – a section of the audience that gets covered in fake blood. And with this combination of blood, jokes, cheesy effects, and really awesome musical numbers, Evil Dead The Musical is unlike any live show you’ve ever seen.
Reserve show tickets online or call the box office at 603-335-1992, Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 am to 5 pm and two hours before show time. The Rochester Opera House is located in City Hall, 31 Wakefield Street, Rochester, NH. Visit www. RochesterOperaHouse.com for more information.
