Yesteryear The Hospital Aid Street Fair: Not to Be Missed in Any August By Barbara Neville Wilson Visiting the Lakes Region? Act like a native and plan your first weekend in August around the Hospital Aid Street Fair. Since 1938, the annual Street Fair has drawn families and guests, grandparents, children, and now grandchildren and greats to Brewster Field in Wolfeboro to grab fantastic bargains, ride amusement rides, eat magnificent Fair food, bid on auction items and support the efforts of —what was originally called—the Ladies’ Aid of Huggins Hospital. (Today the Hospital Aid Street Fair is organized and run by the Hospital & Community Aid Association, Inc.) The Aid was established in 1907, even before the hospital was officially dedicated. Its mission was ìt promote the interests of the Huggins Hospital by providing as far as possible such articles as are necessary for the comforts of the inmates. A mere seven years later, the Aid had completed a porch addition to the new hospital and installed both an elevator and a dumbwaiter to the original structure. Activities were financed through whist parties, food sales and dances. The Aid’s primary responsibility was stocking the Linen Room. It was
no small task in a world that was not yet “consumable.” Among the items delivered by the Aid to the hospital in 1931 were 68 hand towels, 36 dish towels, 24 pillow slips, 18 baby dresses, 12 surgeon gowns, 36 johnnys and 24 bedpan covers. The total bill came to $794.88. The ladies played a lot of whist! By the time Ethel (Clow Dye) Black took leadership of the Aid in 1938, however, whist parties and food sales were not sufficient to meet the growing

hospital’s demands. The community was expanding and expectations for the hospital, which Ethel’s father cofounded and where her husband served as surgeon, were vastly different from when the institution opened. Ethel suggested the Aid put all their efforts into one fundraiser and suggested a Street Fair similar to one she had heard of in Massachusetts. The first Street Fair was held for one day, Fri., August 19, 1938, from 10 in the morning until midnight. The husbands
of the committee members built sixby-six-foot booths, and attractions included children’s games, Beano, fortune telling, chuck-a-luck, concerts by the Wolfeboro and Camp Wyanoke Bands, and an evening auction. Major raffle prizes included a man’s Gladstone Bag and a woman’s Fitted Overnight Case. Then as now, local businesses, professionals and institutions were generous in supporting the Fair. Vince Rogers, headmaster of Brewster Academy, graciously allowed the use of the Field and charged no rent. Being a wise Yankee, Ethel arranged to share the Field—and thus the cost of mowing—with Camp Wyanoke for their annual West Point style Parade and Band Concert. The first Street Fair ended with a profit of $900 ($400 more than the Aid’s stated goal), and a list of suggested improvements for the next year. From that time forward, profits from the Street Fair have supported Huggins Hospital through the purchase of necessities, comforts, and tools and equipment that a rural hospital like Huggins could never afford on its own. Hospital Aid records list a range of donations made, from flannel sheeting for the operating room back in the days

In at least one year, members provided Christmas lights and favors to brighten the hospital during the holidays. The Fair has always been a community affair. On August 4, 1939, The Granite State News editorialized, “People who buy a new car every year, who are never

satisfied unless they have the latest model radio; who demand the newest styles in clothing, in furniture and in lighting fixtures, seem to think that a hospital should get along with x-ray, laboratory, sterilizing and operating equipment that was new and modern 15 years ago…That is, they think this until some member of their immediate family is hospitalized for a major operation or serious accident…It really does not matter much whether a family has a car that is one year behind the latest model. But it may make a difference of life or death to them whether or not their hospital has equipment that is modern and efficient.” While the editor, Ralph Carpenter II, reminded his neighbors to give generously to the hospital, his wife was already hard at work, sharing charge of the Children’s Attractions that year. Over the years, the roster of workers included particular names over and over, and eventually the names of those same people’s children and grandchildren. For example, Dee Rowe Moyer first worked with her parents, Gerry and Trudy Rowe in the mid-1980’s and her three children, Amy, Andrea and Glen helped. By the time the family retired from the Clothing Tent in the early 2000s, Andrea and Amy’s children had been helping, too! In an interview in 2000, Ethel Black’s younger brother, Skip Clow, and his
wife, Ruth recalled travelling the 500 miles from Tonawanda, NY to work at the Fair numerous summers. It was never a chore, they said, because they had so much fun. There were some drawbacks, though. Skip had never been lucky, but he did win at chuck-aluck once. He walked proudly around the Fairgrounds with a fistful of change until he ruefully realized he had to donate it all back to the Fair. “My sister was running the show, you know.” Even animal families have carried the Street Fair tradition from generation to generation. In 1950, a kitten was donated to be sold. Fred Clow II bought her. By the next Fair, she had kittens that were sold at the Fair. Bud Booth bought one, but apparently no one in the family wanted to admit they loved her, so they joked, “We’ll chloroform her tomorrow.” “Chloro” became a beloved member of the family. Her kittens were sold at the 1952 Fair and she, herself, won a prize as “Best Behaved Kitten” at the ever-popular pet show. Through the years, groups and institutions have given generously to Street Fair efforts. The First Congregational Church has frequently allowed its facilities to be used for meals. Traditional chicken barbecues, smorgasbords and lobster boils have been run by groups as diverse as the

Carpenter School’s stage was scene to plays put on by girls from the short-lived Valley Camp on Pleasant Valley Road in the 1950s. Campers from Kehonka ran the Riggidy-Jig Lane children’s attractions for a number of years, and longtime summer visitors from camps continue to contribute numerous hours to the Fair. The Fair has had a long and successful run and generally profits rise year-toyear. However, in 1942 war rationing almost brought the Fair to a halt. Some felt the lack of summer visitors would affect profits adversely. The hospital had to run, war or no war, so the Aid persevered and afterwards declared that year’s Fair “a success beyond any expectations.” In 1955, polio forced the Aid to cancel popular children’s activities like Riggidy Jig and pony rides and encouraged children 14 and under to save their money for another year when they could return to the Fair. In the early years, the date of the Street Fair was determined by the Farmer’s Almanac and its weather predictions for August. Unfortunately, this led to a run of years in the ‘50s

when the Fair gained the nickname “The Farmer’s Friend” for its proclivity for bringing rain with the Fair. Now a permanent date has been set: the Street Fair takes place the first full weekend (Fri-Sat) in August, rain or shine. People plan volunteer hours or vacations around Street Fair dates, and the tents are waterproofed, so a little rain only cools things off as fairgoers search for bargains and greet old friends. What started as a one-day effort in 1938 has now evolved into a yearround effort by hundreds of volunteers. The two Street Fair barns on Route 109A will be emptied the week before the Fair as tents are set up and filled on Brewster Field, but by the following week, people already will be dropping things off for next year’s Fair. Street Fair chair Jane Wass and her indefatigable crew will begin sorting and tagging and, if recent history is a barometer, they’ll hold several barn sales even before next year’s event. The barns simply can’t hold all the generosity the area offers! So when in the Lakes Region, do like the natives do: Plan Friday and Saturday, August 7 and 8 from 10 am to 10 pm around the Hospital Aid Street Fair. You’ll love the bargains, the rides, the food, the friendly folks, but most of all, you’ll love the good you do while having fun!

Freese Brothers at Cate Park The Friends of the Wolfeboro Community Bandstand welcome the Freese Brothers Big Band as another season of free summer concerts on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee continues. The concert takes place on Sat., Aug. 8, at 7 pm at the Wolfeboro Community Bandstand in Cate Park in downtown Wolfeboro. Jack, Bill, George and Courtland Freese, four brothers who began playing music together in a familyperforming troupe, formed the band in 1982. The band’s purposes were to support and encourage the development of the musical talents of the public,
particularly young musicians, and its members, and to foster an appreciation for music of all eras. Band members live and work throughout the southern and central part of the Granite State and come from diverse professional and musical backgrounds. The group includes talented high school students. The variety of members blend years of experience together to create a distinctive sound that helps to define the Freese Brothers Big Band. The band members are all volunteers, and the performance fees help to maintain the band equipment, pay travel expenses and support a

The band’s program consists of a wide mix of music, as they blend Big Band and swing classics, as well as top tunes from every decade since the 1940s. The music of Glenn Miller and Duke Ellington blend gracefully with Manhattan Transfer and the Beatles and Norah Jones and Brian Setzer. The band has played throughout New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts and Vermont, including gigs at Loon Mountain and band shells across the Lakes Region. The band has also performed at two governors’ inaugural balls and helped out a number of worthy causes, as well, along the way.
The Friends of the Wolfeboro Community Bandstand are happy to provide Saturday evening concerts in the bandstand in Cate Park on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee for yet another summer season. The concerts take place every Saturday night in July and August and begin at 7 pm. Concerts are free and open to the public, though a pass-the-bucket offering is taken to help the Friends of the Community Bandstand continue to offer the concerts each summer. For more information on the concert series, see the bulletin board near the bandstand in Cate Park. In the event of bad weather, a sign will be posted on the bulletin board near the entrance to the park near the town docks or at wolfeborobandstand.org.

One design for a simple cold frame that participants will learn to build. place on Wed., August 5 at G.A.L.A.’s office at 3 Pork Hill Road in Ossipee. A cold frame is essentially a bottomless box with a covering of glass or clear plastic sheeting. These coverings are called “lights” because they collect the warm sunshine to heat up the plants contained inside the frame. If you construct a moveable “box” it can be placed directly over a portion of your garden bed to protect plants that are growing in the ground. Otherwise you can build a permanent cold frame to plant specific hardy crops. Cold frames give growers a jump on spring planting and a longer harvest in the fall. In the spring they provide a place to start seedlings and in the fall they provide additional thermal collection and weather protection. Even in the summer crops can be grown in the open frames where they are protected from winds and can grow faster than unprotected crops. Those who have harvested and eaten a salad of fresh greens in February or have flowers blooming well past frost, know the attraction of using cold frames. There are many different ways and methods of using cold frames including over wintering dormant

plants, giving seedlings an early start, hardening off young seedlings, and extending the season past frost. Here are ten important cold frame considerations: 1. Location: Place in a spot that receives ample amounts of sunshine. A south-facing wall works best. The ideal location is also slightly sloped to allow water to flow away from the cold frame. 2. Protection: Consider placing against an existing structure (home, garage, fence, etc.). A home will add warmth, but the main thing goal is protection from wind and other elements. 3. Soil: Prepare topsoil by sifting out unusable rocks, grass, etc. Aerate the sub-soil with a pitchfork. Mix compost in. 4. Insulation: Set the cold frame into the earth a bit for added insulation. If there are multiple days below freezing, throw old blankets or burlap bags on top of the cold frame. Uncover when the sun arrives. You can also use polystyrene sheeting along the inside

A scene from last year’s New Hampshire Boat Museum Alton Bay Boat Show.
The Vintage Boats Are Coming! If you love antique and classic motorboats, the New Hampshire Boat Museum’s 39th Annual Alton Bay Boat Show is the place for you. Held on Saturday, August 8 starting at 9 am and running until 12 noon, the show is located at the Alton Bay Public Docks on Lake Winnipesaukee. The event is an informal, nonjudged vintage boat show open to all antique and classic boats; no advance registration is necessary. There is no cost to enter a boat or to attend the show as a spectator. The show offers a great opportunity to view some of the most beautiful boats on Lake Winnipesaukee. Attendees can vote for the People’s Choice Awards, given to the top three entries. The boat show is part of a number of activities taking place in Alton on August 8, which is also Alton Old Home Day.
Typically seen at the Alton Bay Boat Show are iconic brands such as ChrisCraft, Lyman, Garwood, Hacker-Craft, and Century. The boats range in style from Runabouts, Cruisers, to Triple cockpits. The Alton Bay Boat Show is supported by the following businesses and families in Alton Bay: Andrews Marine Service, Bay Side Inn, Sandy Point Beach Resort and Restaurant, Shibley’s At the Pier, Gary and Marianne Smith, Gilford Home Center, J. P. China Restaurant, Stanley Elevator Company, Dean and Teresa Puzzo, Dorothye S. and Reuben Wentworth, and West Alton Marina. To learn more about the Alton Bay Boat Show, visit www.nhbm.org or call the New Hampshire Boat Museum at 569-4554.
walls. Bubble wrap can also be placed on the inside window. 5.Material: Use cement blocks or untreated wood that will not decompose, such as cypress, cedar, or hemlock. 6. Size: three to four feet are a good width for a cold frame. Anything larger will make it difficult to harvest back rows. Popular dimensions are three by six feet and four by eight feet. A minimum height of eight in. is desirable (12 in. is better). 7. Structure: Build the frame to fit the window, higher in the back than the front. Add weights to keep the window sashes from blowing open during strong winter storms. 8. Propping: During days of over 45 degrees, include a way to prop open the window for ventilation. 9. Reinforcement: Use wooden or metal stakes to abut the sideboards for
increased rigidity. 10. Moisture: Be sure to check soil moisture and keep beds properly watered, as the evaporation process is quickened with a cold frame. Workshop participants will learn all of these considerations in more detail as well as specifics of three different designs and which hardy crops do well in cold frames. Participants can choose to come simply to learn about the cold frames, or for an additional materials fee, they can build a cold frame onsite to take home. The Extending the Growing Season with Cold Frames workshop takes place from 6 to 8 pm, at the G.A.L.A.’s office located at 3 Pork Hill Road in Ossipee. Admission for the workshop is $15.00. (If a participant would like to construct and take home a cold frame there is an additional $30 materials fee.) Pre-registration is required at www.galacommunity.org, or by calling 539-6460.

The Sweet Life of a Beekeeper By Sarah Wright Photos courtesy Fred Martin Everyone loves honey, but whether we’re spreading it on toast, or adding it to tea, we don’t give much thought to the beekeeper that gathered it from the hive. Who are these brave souls who risk getting stung so we can all enjoy one of nature’s best sweeteners? I started wondering how the process works, and decided to talk to a local beekeeper from the Wolfeboro Farmer’s market. Fred Martin started beekeeping nine years ago, and he’s since turned his hobby into a successful business called Carriage Hill Honey. When Fred was growing up, an older man in his neighborhood was a beekeeper, so Fred had some knowledge about beekeeping from the neighbor. But life took over, and beekeeping was placed on the back burner. It wasn’t until Fred was close to retiring that he decided to become a beekeeper. He started with three hives his first year, and the bees produced 30 pounds of honey. According to Fred, that’s not typical, with most first-timers having less honey in their first year. After that encouraging harvest, Fred gradually grew his business to 20 hives and now averages 50 pounds of honey per hive. Let’s talk about bees for a minute. We all see them buzzing around our yards every summer, but how much do we know about the life of a bee? First of all, there are 200 kinds of pollinator bees in New Hampshire. That’s a heck of a lot, but the breed of honeybee used by most beekeepers isn’t actually native to this country. Early settlers from Europe first brought the bees over, and the bees originated from Italy, although there are some Russian bees out there, too. (I’m trying to imagine how they transported the bees on the ships back in those days. Must’ve been interesting!) In the summertime, when hives are at their full capacity, they can contain 60 to 65,000 bees. However, all that foraging for pollen takes a toll, and most of the bees only live for four to six weeks. When the queen bee lays eggs again in the fall, those bees will live through the winter. Beekeepers make sure to leave some honey behind in
the hive, so that bees can survive those long, cold months. It doesn’t sound to me like there’s much hibernating going on. The eggs hatch at different rates. Female bees take 21 days to hatch, male drones hatch in 24 days, and a new queen will hatch in 16 days. What do you need to become a beekeeper? Well, first off, it’ll take between $300 to $500 dollars. You’ll need a hive with at least 10 deep frames, brood chambers where the queen lays her eggs, a smoker and some other hand tools, a bee suit, and some gloves. I’ve always wondered how that smoker works, and when I asked Fred to explain it, I was surprised by the answer. “The smoke actually makes the bees think that their house is on fire,” says Fred, “so they go down into the bottom of the hive and start eating the honey, storing it in their bellies.” While they’re busy trying to survive, Fred can open the hive to check on his bees. When he’s harvesting the honey, there are other options to keep the bees away. Some beekeepers use a strongsmelling spray to drive the bees deeper down into the hive. This tactic only takes about 10 to 15 minutes. If you don’t mind waiting longer, there’s also the bee escape hatch method. Open it down below and the bees will fly out within 24 hours. A screen will prevent them from climbing back in. The next step is to access the “liquid gold.” A special extractor spins,
causing the honey to drip to the bottom where it’s strained. I’ve tried Fred’s Carriage Hill Honey and it’s delicious. He sells two kinds: Wildflower honey and Blueberry honey. Wildflower honey is most common locally, simply because bees generally pollinate all kinds of flowers. Fred gets Blueberry honey from hives placed in commercial blueberry patches in Maine. It’s a win-win situation, because the bees will help pollinate the crops on the farm as they make their honey. Clover honey is common at supermarkets, because farmers in the Midwest plant large crops of clover for their bees. Other regional varieties include one of Fred’s favorites— Buckwheat honey, typically made in New York, which has a strong, molasses-like flavor. Orange groves and Tupelo gum trees in Florida produce Orange blossom and Tupelo honey varieties. Fred has even tried Cranberry honey! I asked Fred what question customers ask him most often, and it’s not “Do you get stung a lot?” Well, that might be what kids ask (and yes, he has been stung quite a bit). But most people are concerned about how the bees are doing, since the plight of the honeybee hit the media. “People are more aware of the importance of bees,” says Fred. “About 30 percent of the food we eat depends on pollination by bees.” Fewer bees
would equal less food at supermarkets and higher prices. What is affecting the bee population? “Beekeeping is more difficult now than it was 30 years ago, because there are more viruses,” says Fred, “but the number-one problem that beekeepers encounter is the Varroa mite. The mites attach themselves to the bees and feed off their blood. This opens up wounds on the bees. There are ways to control the mites, but it’s a constant battle.” We can probably all guess what the other issue is for the bees. It’s pesticides. “Pesticides are killing bees, and the Big-Box stores are selling plants that contain pesticides,” explains Fred. “If a bee pollinates that plant, it’ll die.” What’s the average consumer to do? Purchase plants and flowers from local greenhouses and nurseries, and support your local beekeeper! Fred has been selling his Carriage Hill Honey at the Wolfeboro Farmer’s market for five years, and also does some local craft fairs in the fall. When he harvests his honey, he scrapes away the wax to use in other products, like lip balm, lotion bars and soap. Fred’s hand-poured candles are also very popular. They last five times longer than regular candles, have a natural honey scent, and help to clean the air as they burn, making them hypoallergenic and great for people with asthma or allergies. Fred has always been interested in the medicinal benefits of honey products, called “apitherapy,” and since he was a child, would use honey to help heal cuts and burns. If you’re interested in finding out more about beekeeping, or would like to sample some Carriage Hill Honey, visit Fred at the Wolfeboro Farmer’s market on Thursdays at Clark Park from 12:30 to 4:30 pm. You can also sit in on a meeting of the Winnipesaukee Beekeepers Association, which meets on the first Thursday of the month at the Tuftonboro Town House at 247 Middle Road. Meetings are held from 6:30 to 8:30 pm. For more information on the association, contact Olivia Saunders, field specialist, UNH Cooperative Extension, at 447-3834 or email Olivia. saunders@unh.edu.

A Musical Mission By Kathi Caldwell-Hopper Photos courtesy New Hampshire Independent School of Music Noelle Beaudin is on a musical mission. It encompasses jazz concerts in a yurt and a young people’s summer music camp so popular it has a waiting list. And there is also the year round music instruction and the professional musicians’ concerts all over the Lakes Region planned for the future. The idea for a music school began about 10 years ago when Noelle, a professional musician who graduated from the Boston Conservatory of Music as a classically trained pianist and composer, decided to start the New Hampshire Independent School of Music. “I was the executive director of the Upper Valley Music Center, and I was living in Center Harbor and commuting to my job,” she recalls. “It was a fantastic job, but after living in the Lakes Region for five years, I realized this area had nothing like the Music Center.”
Noelle saw a need and an opportunity and began to contact local musicians and music teachers. There was enthusiasm for her idea of a music school in the Lakes Region, and a board and nonprofit status was achieved and the New Hampshire Independent School of Music was born. Noelle serves as program director for the school. The first project was a day camp for students during the summer. Following this, Noelle branched out with year round music ensembles. The big goal at the outset was an overnight music camp. “This is our tenth year of presenting the Lake Winni Music Camp, which is held at Geneva Point Center in Moultonboro. It takes place two separate weeks and has become so popular there is a waiting list of students who want to attend.” Geneva Point is a great place for the music camp, which is for children ages 10-18. Classes are held near the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee with no more than 60 students total attending. No auditions are required and the focus is
The Yurt, where jazz concerts take place. on ensemble playing and collaboration, things Noelle believes in with a passion. She says when a person plays as a professional musician, they do not always get to decide whom they perform with and they cannot always choose the music. The idea of placing together a group of students of varying ages and musical abilities teaches kids to collaborate and learn to work together. The results are great, if the waiting list and the careers of former campers is anything to go by. Some have gone on to careers as professional musicians,
while others are music teachers. No matter what field they have gone into, the solid music camp week at Geneva Point led the way to bigger and better things. According to www.nhisom.org, “The school is the only non-competitive Summer Music and Recreational Camp for musicians ages 10-18. The mission of the music camp is to create long-lasting musical friendships. We accept no more than 60 students; no auditions are required. We are one of

• Musical Mission Continued from page 30 the only Summer Music Programs that continues to grow year after year because our program focuses on ensemble playing and collaboration. Our Faculty is a diverse set of musicians and music teachers that have been working with young musicians in both private and public education for over 30 years.” Noelle crafted the goals of the camp by looking back at her own musical career. “When I was younger, I could have practiced a lot more and I wasn’t so good under pressure. Competitiveness is difficult. This camp focuses more on an ensemble musical experience vs. being highly competitive,” she explains. For example, Noelle says the camp has kids as young as 10 or 11 that look to older campers as mentors. “That is why the camp is a success,” she says. “We don’t stratify the kids, but rather place them all together and they learn to work together on music. That is what being a real-life musician is like.” Spending a week on Lake Winnipesaukee, surrounded by budding and professional musicians is a dream-come-true for campers. Young musicians choose from a variety of workshops, including Open Rock/Jam Bands; Advanced Jazz Ensemble; Celtic Group; Beginner Guitar Workshop; Classical Ensemble; Harmony and Voice; Ya Gotta Play the Blues; Gypsy Jazz; Beginner Drumming; Classical Orchestra, Piano Duet, String Orchestra and more. One of the aspects of the music camp
experience is performing. Students present a Friday night concert, this year on Fri., August 14 at 6 pm in the Chapel building at Geneva Point. The concert features all of the music done at camp and it is extremely lengthy but quite amazing. (A Saturday morning concert is at 10:30 am and features only the larger ensembles due to time constraints.) As part of a belief in bringing music to the Lakes Region, and a desire for campers to perform for a live audience, the concerts are free and open to the public. Noelle has branched out over the years, and one of the popular offerings of the school is Jazz in the Yurt. “This is our second year of Jazz in the Yurt concerts. The yurt was one of the reasons we bought the place – it’s perfect for intimate jazz concerts. The property also has an in-law house that we use for the music school at times. It is located at 420 Holderness Road, in Sandwich,” Noelle says. The Jazz in the Yurt concerts offers the public an opportunity to hear and experience jazz in an intimate listening environment. The concerts feature the Tom Robinson Trio, along with occasional guest artists. Each concert has a theme and focuses on the music of a particular composer or time period. “The Yurt concerts are sold out ahead of time and we get people from all over – Bristol, Wolfeboro, Alton, Laconia and other towns. The jazz is presented by quality, professional musicians,” Noelle explains.

August Events at the Libby Museum The Libby Museum in Wolfeboro will host an unusual art show during the month of August featuring Town of Wolfeboro employees’ hidden art and creative talents. Included in the August show will be well-known talent, Stephanie Blackstone, who has been painting for over 35 years. Stephanie completed her training at the Portland School of Art, (now called Maine College of Art) in Portland, Maine. She majored in painting and received a BFA in 1984. Since then, Stephanie has painted hundreds of landscapes around the Lakes Region and the White Mountains, as far away as Acadia National Park in Mt. Desert, Maine. Stephanie works in oils, drawings
and pastels. A new project that she has taken on for this exhibit is compiling a book of portraits of Town of Wolfeboro employees that will include over 40 creations when finished. Also included in this show will be watercolors of David Ford, and a Victorian dollhouse by Terry Tavares. When making arrangements to have her dollhouse on display, Terry Tavares described the history of the dollhouse in this way to Libby Museum director, Lauren Hammond, “I have worked for the Town of Wolfeboro Planning and Development Department for eight years. This dollhouse was a Christmas present three years ago. I told my husband I wanted a dollhouse to build and he bought the biggest one he could

find. It was overwhelming at first, but the more I worked on it, the better it looked. You have to think ahead while building a dollhouse. I had to remember that once it was glued together, I wouldn’t be able fit my hands in to change or add to it. So I had to be sure of what I wanted it to look like before I could glue anything together. We did some calculations and figured out that there are about 4,800 shingles on the roof. I couldn’t find what I wanted, so I hand cut each shingle from large craft sticks (tongue depressors). I handmade all the bedding, along with the curtains, pillows and knitted blanket. “Most of the furniture was given to me as gifts, or I picked up pieces at yard sales. I also made some from kits. All of the paint was from leftover paint projects in my home along with craft paint from other projects. I have always loved miniatures. And this is the largest project I have done so far. This is still a project in the works. I still see things I want to do with it. I think when it is done it will have lights and more decorations. I even have some Christmas decorations to put in for the holidays.” Lastly, a moose painting by Betty Brown of the Libby Museum’s new moose will be raffled off to benefit the Museum without Walls outreach program. The new work of art will be raffled off to a lucky winner on Columbus Day weekend. Raffle tickets may be purchased at the Libby museum. On Thurs., August 6, the museum will present “Native American Identification Night” with Dr. Robert
Goodby from 7 to 8 pm. The program is sponsored by the Friends of the Libby and is open to the public. Similar to Antiques Roadshow on PBS, the program is intended to help you discover an authentic artifact that you may own. Those who plan to attend can bring their own Native American artifact and Dr. Goodby will try to identify it using his years of experience. Is it just a rock or do you have an authentic Native American treasure? You might find that you have a 5,000-year-old spear point in your possession! Goodby will also identify and talk about the artifacts in the Libby Museum collection. Dr. Robert Goodby is the Associate Professor of Anthropology at Franklin Pierce University and is a Native American Archaeologist. Goodby has had several impressive roles in the anthropology and archaeology fields that include, but are not limited to, being an author of more than 100 technical reports on New England prehistoric archaeology, serving as past President of the New Hampshire Archaeological Society, as well as being an appointed member of the New Hampshire Native American Affairs Commission by NH Governor John Lynch. Dr. Goodby enjoys providing hands-on training in archaeological excavation and has a familiarity with and appreciation for the 11,000 years of Native American history in the Monadnock Region. For questions on upcoming exhibits and programs, call the Libby Museum at 569-1035. The museum is located at 755 North Main Street in Wolfeboro.

• Musical Mission Continued from page 31 The concerts are just one more way to meet the commitment to bring great music of all kinds to the Lakes Region. Expanding on the Jazz in the Yurt concerts, there also will be performances at the Mead Base Conservation Center in the Sandwich area. Noelle is building partnerships with local businesses and organizations, and the Mead concerts will do just that. “We will have two concerts in partnership with Mead Base, on August 29 and September 19,” she says. “Mead is near Sandwich Notch and it’s a beautiful center and area. It gives a historic connection between arts and nature in New Hampshire.” On August 29, the concert will feature a trio that usually performs at the Yurt – the Tom Robinson Trio with guest soloist Orlando Pandolfi, a jazz vibraphonist. The September 19 concert offers the Tom Robinson Trio with special guest soloist Randy Roos, guitarist. When the last vestiges of summer are gone, the Music School will continue to organize and present classes and concerts. It is part of Noelle’s ongoing effort to bring quality music to the Lakes Region on a year-round basis. “The population is so large here in the summer, and it falls off in the winter months,” she explains. “I originally hoped to do a structure similar to other music schools with year-round events, but it is hard to achieve due to funding. This year, we are focused on raising money to fund lessons and ensemble classes for groups in need. “There are kids and adults in the area that would like private lessons but cannot afford them.” she says. Partnering with different venues, such as a local church, and the Mead property, the school is bringing concerts to a larger audience. Noelle feels that if the concerts are spread over
the Lakes Region, it will be easier to people to attend one in their town, even if the weather is bad in the winter. A list of performance dates will be up on the school’s website and Noelle promises to bring music to the area with a focus on classical, jazz (true jazz, she says – not swing which is another category) and vocal music. All performances will feature professional musicians. All student performances are done in partnership with others and are free. For example, if a local Rotary club wanted children to sing, it would be free. It is a way to give back to the community and also give youngsters performance experience. Private music classes take place year round at the studios of music teachers and sometimes at the school’s studio
space in Sandwich. The number of instructors varies – at the summer music camp there are 10 full-time faculty members and eight interns, plus counselors and assistants. During the year, there are five full-time teachers. The age range of the students taking lessons varies from age four to 76, underscoring the importance of music over a person’s lifetime. When asked why music is important, Noelle elaborates, “Honestly, music is the only thing you can do creatively whereby if you make a mistake you just have to go with it. Music in its true form is performed live. The energy and focus is all on creating something in a live setting and when you do that, it is amazing what the brain does. When students collaborate and really try, it is a time when I see them work through
so many problems all at once.” She continues, “The arts are valuable. We hear that all the time, but do we really know what that means? I hear so many kids say they can’t take piano lessons because they have volleyball or another sport. But then I meet their counterparts – maybe someone who is 50 years old - that say they gave up music lessons for sports when they were younger and wish they hadn’t. When you are 80 years old, you might not be able to play a sport but you can still play music with others or by yourself. When times are tough, music will make you happy. As a musician, a person can learn to read a new language, transfer that language to their fingers when playing an instrument and communicate it telepathically to the audience.” The future is bright and busy for the New Hampshire Independent School of Music. The main focus will be getting funding for students – that is number one. Noelle will also be building up a children’s choir. “I would like to see a professional children’s choir in the Lakes Region. They could work in conjunction with adult choirs,” Noelle says. Clearly, Noelle is on a musical mission. If you like all kinds of music, if you want to support the efforts of young musicians and hear quality jazz in an unusual yurt location, if you truly love and believe in music, keep an eye out for the work Noelle is doing. There will be concerts and many ways to support budding musicians and even older folks who might be picking up an instrument for the first time or playing music after not pursuing it for years. Whatever the instrument or the person’s age or ability, Noelle knows the music is always worthwhile.

Twelfth Night Comes to Sandwich Local theatre company Advice To The Players (ATTP) has returned to Sandwich to present Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. The show runs on August 4 at 7:30 pm at the Sandwich Town Hall Theatre. “I’m really proud of all the work everyone is doing,” shared director and veteran ATTP company member, Candace Clift. Twelfth Night is one of Shakespeare’s most captivating plays and features intrigue, raucous comedy, and a cast of characters who speak beautiful truths that resonate in today’s world. The company is staying true to their mission with a cast of professional actors, teens, and locals. Twelfth Night cast members hail from all corners of the state to be part of this production. New Hampshire native, and ATTP newcomer, Kimberly Miller, is thrilled to join ATTP’s acting ensemble for the
Kimberly Miller and the ATTP Company rehearse Twelfth Night. first time in the role of Olivia. “This is a dream summer,” commented Miller. “I get to do what I love, in the cool,
fresh air of northern New Hampshire; performing with a creative and talented group of people, bringing one of
Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies to life! I am incredibly grateful and can’t wait to share the play with audiences.” Miranda Posner, who graced the stage with ATTP for many years, is returning in the role of Viola—after an eight-year hiatus. Actor Andrew Codispoti will embody the foolhardy Andrew Aguecheek, alongside company favorites and new friends. The Twelfth Night performance was held at the Fairgrounds Stage in early August, but there is still time to see the show on August 4 at the Sandwich Town Hall Theatre at 7:30 pm. Stop by Advice To The Player’s new home at 12 Main Street in Sandwich to purchase tickets from 12 noon to 6 pm on Wednesdays through Sundays and from 10 am to 6 pm on Saturdays, or purchase tickets at www.

Predator-Prey Day at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center People are at the top of the food chain (luckily for us), but that doesn’t mean other predators are anything to scoff at! As a matter of fact, prey is fantastic too. On Sat., August 8, from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, Squam Lakes Natural Science Center in Holderness will be celebrating both, with a day of fun for the whole family. At this exciting, educational event, visitors will have a chance to play games, make crafts, and listen to Up Close to Animals lectures. During these talks, naturalists at the Science Center will
share interesting facts and present live animals to viewers. Up Close to Animals lectures of the day include mountain lions, coyotes, peregrine falcons, barred owls, and bats. Visitors will also be able to play on the Gordon Interactive Playscape, an amazing playground that teaches about predator-prey relationships. Those playing in the Playscape may act the part of a red squirrel as they face obstacles, which simulate the real-life challenges red squirrels face as prey. The Playscape
includes a 13-ft. slide, a giant bird’s nest, a rope swing, and much more. Guests should be sure to visit this recent addition to Squam Lakes Natural Science Center. Predator-Prey Day is also Holderness Day. This means that Holderness residents will be admitted for free. For other guests, the cost of Predator-Prey Day is included with trail admission. August 8 is also Annual Meeting Day for members from 8:30 to 10 am. Members are invited to attend the Annual Meeting free of charge. They will be able
to take a look at the new Water Matters Pavilion, an exhibit all about water and the critters that survive on it, and enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast on the deck. The business meeting will start at 9 am. Squam Lakes Natural Science Center is located on Route 113 in Holderness, an easy drive from exit 24 off I-93, and is open daily from May 1 through November 1. For further information about the Science Center, call 968-7194 or visit www.nhnature.org.

August 5 and 6, from 10:30 am until approximately 4:30 pm, Wolfeboro’s Wright Museum of World War II on Center Street in Wolfeboro will hold its second annual Film Festival. This season the Festival will focus on Hollywood films dealing with WWII. Wright Museum executive director Mike Culver has selected some of his favorite WWII-era Hollywood films for your enjoyment. Films will be run in the Museum’s theatre, shown in succession with a 15-minute intermission in between (there will be a 30-minute lunch break). On August 5, the films shown will be: The Great Dictator, 1940, with Charlie Chaplin; To Be Or Not To Be, 1941, by Ernst Lubitsch; and Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon, 1942, by Roy William Neill. On Aug. 6, the films will be Lifeboat, 1944, by Alfred Hitchcock; To Have And Have Not, 1944, by Howard Hawks and The Best Years of Our Lives, 1946, by William Wyler. Culver holds a doctorate in interdisciplinary studies and has taught university courses on film, art and literature. Seating will be on a first-come-first seated basis; call 569-1212 to make reservations. Viewing of the Film Festival is free with museum admission. Last Shots for Patton’s Third Army will be presented on Tues., August 4 at
7 pm by author Robert Fuller. (Doors open at 6 pm.) Author Fuller has identified the circumstances and individuals who fired the last shots for every unit in the 3rd Army in the closing days of WWII, and provides a comprehensive history of the 3rd Army from its inception during WWI. He includes a brief overview of General Patton’s career, adding a very interesting and revealing segment in which Patton explains in some detail how he expects each type of unit to fight and how these various units will integrate their efforts. The book is filled with anecdotal and factual events related right down to the platoon and squad level, with individual soldiers’ stories told in their own words. This book will be a “must read” for anyone interested in the 3rd Army, in the soldiers who served on the ground during WWII and to the general WWII audience. Robert P. Fuller has been interested in military history for many years. He holds B.S. (ed.) and M.S. (ed.) degrees from the University of Maine. Admission is $8 per person and free for Wright Museum members. Space is limited and RSVPs are strongly encouraged to ensure sufficient seating for all attendees. Call 569-1212 to reserve your seat today. The Wright Museum is located at 77 Center Street, Wolfeboro, NH.

Neil Simon’s Coming-of-Age Story on Playhouse Stage One of America’s most prolific and beloved playwrights, Neil Simon, may be best known for his early works like Barefoot in the Park and The Odd Couple. But it was later in his career that he began writing some of his most critically acclaimed plays, including Lost in Yonkers, which is playing at The Winnipesaukee Playhouse in Meredith through August 8. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize and called “the best play Simon ever wrote” by the New York Post, Lost in Yonkers is a bittersweet coming-of-age story which, like many of Simon’s plays, draws from his experiences growing up in New York City. Set during World War II, two young
brothers, Arty and Jay, are left by their traveling salesman father to live with their stern Old World grandmother, a childlike yet loving aunt in search of life-changing romance, and a smalltime mobster uncle. The original production of Lost in Yonkers played 780 performances at Broadway’s Richard Rodgers Theatre. Gene Saks directed Irene Worth, Mercedes Ruehl and Kevin Spacey (all of them won Tony Awards for their performances). Simon wrote the later screenplay for the 1993 film directed by Martha Coolidge, starring Richard Dreyfus with Worth and Ruehl repeating their roles. The Winnipesaukee Playhouse welcomes back Donna Goldfarb, a NH
Theatre Award Winner in 2010 for her role as Bubbie in Crossing Delancey. She will be playing the matriarch of the family and will be joined by Molly Parker Myers, Nicholas Wilder, Rebecca Tucker and Jason Plourde, who will be playing her children. JohnMichael Breen and Jordan Quisno play her grandsons, Arty and Jay. Marta Rainer, a guest director from New York City, directs the production. Rainer, who grew up a stone’s throw from Yonkers, says, “Lost in Yonkers invites us to consider, as we laugh through tears: where do we find the tools for courage when we must show our troubles some moxie? As Arty and Jay navigate their family’s complex history and delicate future, we cheer for
them, and recognize our own journeys through them. It’s a pleasure to return to the Winnipesaukee Playhouse to explore this richly human, highlyacclaimed script with such generous theater makers.” Lost in Yonkers will be performed at The Winnipesaukee Playhouse campus in Meredith. Tickets can be ordered by calling 279-0333 or at www. winnipesaukeeplayhouse.org. The Winnipesaukee Playhouse also offers free educational programs: “Symposium” a pre-show presentation offering insight on the play from 6 to 6:45 pm on Tues., August 4 and “TalkBack Wednesday” a post-performance Q&A with cast and director on Wed., August 5.
Odds Bodkin Coming to Wolfeboro Public Library The Wolfeboro Public Library will close its Every Hero Has a Story summer reading program with a special performance by Odds Bodkin, a master storyteller, musician, author, and educator, hailed by Billboard Magazine as “a modern-day Orpheus” and by The New York Times as a “consummate storyteller.” The free family program will be held on Sat., August 15 at 10:30 am at Anderson Hall on the Brewster Academy campus in Wolfeboro. Bodkin will share two Little Heroes stories. The Wise Little Girl, a Russian folktale, tells the story of a seven-yearold girl who bravely answers riddles posed by the Tsar in an effort to save
her father. In the Italian fairytale The Little Shepherd, a hard-hearted boy goes on a wild adventure with animals and witches to find a mysterious girl who is hidden in a singing apple. Odds’ vivid character voices, uncanny vocal effects, and compelling action keep kids and adults imagining and smiling. Plus, there is the joy of listening to original music on a 12-string guitar and Celtic harp. Mr. Bodkin is renowned for his
huge repertoire of folk tales from cultures around the world, an extensive collection of Greek myths, American and New England folklore, ghost stories and teaching fables, all performed with live original music, character voices, vocal effects and narration. Twice the subject of Lincoln Center Institute in New York’s Window on the World, he has performed at The White House and across America at schools, museums, universities, special performances and festivals. His many
recordings and picture books have won Indie awards, Parents’ Choice Gold and Silver awards, Storytelling World awards, the Dove Foundation award, Booklist’s Editors’ Choice, and the New York Public Library’s “100 Best Titles for Reading and Sharing” award, among others. Wolfeboro Public Library is able to present this free performance thanks to the support of the Friends of Wolfeboro Public Library, Q. David Bowers, the Marsh Family, and anonymous donors.

Summer Loon Cruises on Squam Lake Every Monday and Friday at 3 pm (until August 28), visitors to the Squam Lakes Natural Science Center in Holderness have an opportunity to view beautiful loons and learn about them from a Loon Preservation Committee (LPC) biologist. Participants will take a 90-minute guided tour on a Science Center pontoon boat, and visit loon nests and other locations where resident loons are frequently seen. Those on the cruise may even get a glimpse of a loon chick swimming next to one of its
parents, or riding on a parent’s back to warm up. The Science Center provides binoculars, so guests can take a closer look at the mesmerizing birds. The experience is further enhanced by information provided by the Science Center naturalist and LPC biologist. The biologist guides the tour and shares interesting facts about loon biology. She will be able to answer such questions as “Are loons related to ducks?” and “Do loons mate for life?” She will also share props to help illustrate her points, such as a life-
sized replica of a loon egg. Guests will learn a little about the lake itself, as the Science Center naturalist discusses the formation of the lake by glaciers. The biologist will speak about the Loon Preservation Committee’s efforts to aid the local loon population. While the loon remains a threatened species, New Hampshire’s population has more than tripled with the help of the LPC’s research, loon nest-building, educational activities, volunteer gathering, management, and more. All Squam Lake Cruises are 90

Popular Winter Farmers’ Market Seeking New Home The Tilton Winter Farmers’ Market has satisfied the local food needs of thousands of area residents for the past four years, and is currently seeking a new home to expand its operation. Market Manager Joan O’Connor is actively looking for a creative, community-spirited partner who can provide a site and site-related services for the coming winter season, December 2015 through March 2016; she is also considering expanding to a year-round market. “I’ve been so grateful for four years for the support of the Autoserv Dealerships of Tilton,” said Joan O’Connor. “They stepped up and did a really good thing, not only for the Tilton com-
munity, but for communities far and wide.” (Autoserv offered O’Connor a reasonable lease of the market’s former location on Route 3 in Tilton, but has recently found a year-round tenant for the space.) According to O’Connor, the ideal indoor market location would have great road access and visibility, be 12-15,000 square feet with at least 75 parking spaces (plus 50 for vendors), and will be minimally heated. Although the market has had great success in the Lakes Region, O’Connor is expanding her view to include other parts of the state. “I can take this anywhere,” said O’Connor. The market was named Editor’s Pick for the
Joan O’Connor, with Patti and Rick MacMillan from Breakwind Farm, at the 2015 Tilton Winter Farmers’ Market.

Best of New Hampshire 2013 awards in New Hampshire Magazine. “We had 50 vendors in the Tilton space, but I have a waiting list of 100 vendors wishing they could get in, not to mention a steady stream of 1,200 to 1,600 customers coming through every weekend. For a business interested in doing something great for their community and for local economic development, as well as assuming a high-profile leadership role, this is a win/win.” O’Connor also seeks donations and financial support for the expansion and relocation initiative. Joan O’Connor, a resident of Henniker, New Hampshire, has long been active on both agriculture and farmers’ markets initiatives in the state. She
founded the successful Concord Winter Farmers’ Market before moving on to Tilton four years ago, and has been active as a volunteer on a variety of issues affecting small farms and producers in the state. Interested citizens or business owners who have thoughts about a location for a thriving indoor farmers’ market, or businesses and individuals interested in providing financial support, should contact Joan O’Connor at 496-1718 or by email at joconnornh@yahoo.com.

Barbershop Harmony Returns to Alton Bay! After a break of several years, the Alton Bay Barbershop Jamboree returns to Alton with its main event scheduled for Sat., August 15 from 7:45 to 11 pm at Prospect Mountain High School. This will be the songfest’s 55th year performing in Alton. As part of Alton’s Old Home Week celebration from August 7-16, the Barbershoppers are scheduled to perform in a variety of locations throughout Alton and
Alton Bay, including the Alton Bay Bandstand and the Senior Center at Pearson Road. In addition, informal singing is sure to pop-up all over town during Old Home Week! This year’s Jamboree is co-hosted by Alton Parks and Recreation and the Lakes Region Chordsmen. Admission for the main event on August 15 is $10 (children under age 12 are free), and portions of the proceeds will support community programs.
Katherine Edie Quilt Raffle for Ashland Library The Friends of the Ashland Town Library are raffling a quilt made by the late Katherine M. Edie (19502014) of Ashland. Her daughter, M a r y Katherine Edie, donated the quilt to the Friends. Katherine Edie, who took up quilting in her later years, loved to make quilts, to teach quilting, to try out new patterns and to donate quilts to worthy causes. Besides quilts for family members and friends, she made quilts for children in the Plymouth homeless shelter and women in the Voices Against Violence shelter. Katherine also made quilts for children who had lost their belongings in house fires. A Vietnam Navy veteran herself, Katherine made several quilts for the N.H. Veterans Home in Tilton. She worked with other quilters at the Church of the Holy Spirit in Plymouth
DOCK HARDWARE
to make charity quilts. Over the past decade, she made and donated four quilts to the Friends of the Ashland Town Library for raffles. The Friends are now pleased to offer another of her quilts to the public. The quilt being raffled has a colorful geometric pattern with a border of stripes and a floral print. A different floral print serves as the backing. The quilt is 65 by 72 inches in size, and is now on display at the Ashland Town Library. Tickets for the raffle are $1 each or six for $5. They may be purchased at the Library or by mail from the Friends of the Ashland Town Library, P.O. Box 660, Ashland NH 03217. The winning ticket will be drawn at the Ashland Town Wide Yard Sale on September 19. (The Friends will ship the quilt to an out-of-town winner.)

Holes For Hunger Golf Tournament in August Mark your calendar now for the Holes for Hunger nine-hole night golf tournament, which will be held at the Indian Mound Golf Club in Ossipee on Sat., August 29 at 5:30 pm to raise money to feed local children. The event will be the world’s first Lite4Nite Golf Tournament using a revolutionary, real golf ball that hits and plays just like a Titleist Pro V1 and lights up forever using space age technology. (The Lite4Nite golf ball
is replacing the original Nitelite golf ball produced by Nitelite Golf of Tuftonboro.) Thousands of Nitelite tournament fundraisers have been held in the U.S. and in foreign countries. The new Lite4Nite golf balls have been tested and endorsed by Jonathan Rivers, Director of Golf, Indian Mound Golf Club; Paul Tessier, Head Golf Pro, Bald Peak Colony Club; Justin Barkley, Head Golf Pro, Waukewan
Golf Club; Todd McKittrick, Head Golf Pro, Manchester Country Club; Gordon Swennes, Head Golf Pro, Wentworth By The Sea Country Club and Kevin Bullard, two-time winner of the Remax Long Drive Championship. (Kevin drove the Lite4Nite 400 yards.) The cost of the tournament is $68.00 and includes Lite4Nite golf balls, a golf cart, and lighted accessories and a cook out before the shotgun start. The tee time is 7:40 pm on Sat., August 29. A
closest to the pin and putting contests will be held prior to tee-off. Trophies and prizes will be awarded. Checks for registering yourself or your team should be sent to: End 68 Hours of Hunger, PO Box 1026, Wolfeboro Falls, NH 03896. If you do not play golf, but would like to help feed local children, your contribution is greatly appreciated.
Rickie Lee Jones Transcends Musical Stereotypes At 7:30 pm on Thurs., August 6, The Flying Monkey in Plymouth presents Grammy winning singer-songwriter Rickie Lee Jones. She is known as “The premiere song-stylist and songwriter of her generation,” (according to The New Yorker’s Hilton Als), with a
“transcendent” voice and phenomenal stage presence. As MOJO writes, “When beatnik kitty cat Rickie Lee first blew minds in’79 with Chuck E.’s In Love, it was obvious that an artist of startling talent had arrived…as she evolved, she wisely

shed the theatrics and focused on her art.” Though she’s stepped brashly across genres, Jones’ core music tends to fit somewhere into the folk-jazzR&B vein. The duchess of coolsville has always had the ability to blow away fans and critics with more than coolness, with simply extraordinary musicianship. Critics wax poetic about her vocals, which adapt to the music with appropriate brittleness or rock-hard precision – and have only gotten better as she’s honed her continually evolving singer-songwriter magic. As The Independent writes of Jones’ vocals, “It is a voice from a dream, elusive,
yet familiar, transcendent, a messenger from another place…stunning.” Rickie Lee has been hailed as a “virtuosic performer,” and the “natural successor to Joni Mitchell.” There is no mistaking that she is one of the most inspired voices in the modern American musical landscape. Don’t miss an intimate evening with the woman who transcended music, first becoming a pop culture phenom, and then maturing into nothing short of a poet.

We are now contracting for Winter Paint & Restoration Work Call about our Special Winter Storage Pricing for Winter Work
With more than a dozen 4,000-foot peaks surrounding Waterville Valley, New Hampshire, hiking contestants are being asked to climb five of the peaks in a single weekend in a fun hiking challenge. This is Waterville Valley’s 5 Summit Challenge, a 20,000-foot total that is almost the height of the highest point in the U.S., Alaska’s Mount Denali. The event, nicknamed The Denali Challenge, will be held August 14 through 16 at the resort in the middle of the White Mountain National Forest. Waterville Valley’s proximity to some of New England’s highest peaks makes it a great location for the event. Participants in the 5 Summit Challenge will hike (or attempt to hike) five peaks. There will be a choice of 13 mountains to climb and the five peaks chosen must equal 20,000 ft. or higher. This year the peaks are: Tecumseh,
