Equine-Based Retreat for Healthcare Workers helps Alleviates Trauma YORK COUNTY As the first few weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, Sarah Armentrout, co-founder of Carlisle Academy, anticipated a need. “Our frontline healthcare workers—our healers—are going to themselves need time to heal from the daily trauma they are enduring,” she said. “And you know, ours horses like to work. Like everybody else, they want a meaningful occupation.” Founded in 1998 by Sarah and her husband Nick, Carlisle Academy is a working farm and center for horse-based therapeutic techniques. For centuries, horses have been used in forms of physical and cognitive therapy and Carlisle typically offers a range of equine activities. But in light of the pandemic, their usual season of activity was cancelled. In frequent staff meetings over Zoom, which Sarah noted was a rather uncomfortable fit for their outdoorsy team, they contemplated how to get back to work in a way that would give back to their community. On August 24, Carlisle held their first half-day retreat for groups of hospital workers in York County. The retreat featured

Church Celebrates Arrival of Pumpkins! YORK Each year, First Parish Church York enthusiastically celebrates the start of fall with the arrival of the pumpkins. Their journey begins on farms in the southwest where Hopi, Zuni and Navajo families cultivate and harvest the crops, then load them into tractor trailers that transport them to partner organizations in the far corners of the country. As a partner organization, First Parish Church is responsible for creating and managing

the Pumpkin Patch. Volunteers from the congregation and wider community join forces to make this annual fundraiser a success. While the largest portion of proceeds from the sales are returned directly to the farmers, the remainder supports First Parish’s missions and ministries in York and beyond. The needs this year are greater than ever. This year the pumpkins are scheduled to arrive on Saturday, September 26 with the pumpkin patch open for business on Sunday, September 27 at 11 a.m.

proceed with the project. Part of the procedure to gain approval is to enter into a formal agreement with the town that will define implementation and maintenance of the park. In addition to this responsibility of FOYDP, the organization is engaged in raising tax deductible donations and creating public awareness of the need for a community dog park. Research has shown that dog parks

provide an integral component to local community culture and well-being for not only dogs and their owners, but for the community at large. There is ample evidence of this when looking at the vast numbers of communities that have established dog parks as part of community life. Interested people can find out more by visiting www.friendsofyorkdogpark.org.

No Pause For Paws, Advocates Forge Ahead YORK Friends of York Dog Park (FOYDP), a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, is a group of York residents who have a vision of a community dog park for a safe and controlled environment. To build a place where dogs and their owners can meet for off leash exercise and play is their goal. Following many communities’ leads in providing such a facility, FOYDP has been working for the past 18 months to publicize their goal to build a community dog park. With on-going discussions with York town officials, FOYDP has gained the approval to locate a dog park on town-owned property as long as all costs are managed by fundraising and do not draw from tax-payer dollars. Even with this independence of funding FOYDP has had to seek state and local approvals to utilize land for a dog park. Concerns for environmental and logistical impacts have been addressed. After

exhaustive research for a location FOYDP was given approval by the selectmen to explore the use of a portion of 17 Bog Road (current location of the Mackey Ice Rink). After DEP and local code enforcement input and Civil Consultants Engineering site work, a suitable placement for the fenced in park has been established. On Wednesday, September 9, FOYDP hosted a public opening to the site to introduce the plan. This informal event was a precursor to a formal hearing before the board of selectmen for hopefully the final approval to

Two Communities to Talk About the Importance of Voting SOUTH BERWICK South Berwick and Tuskegee, AL, residents will join in a historic voting project for a joint bicentennial anniversary celebration on September 22, focusing on the importance of voting and highlighting interviews with 100 people from each town. The online event “Together We Vote: Two Communities, One Nation” features a nineminute video that will be released on Youtube with residents of both communities talking about the importance of voting and obstacles they have faced to voting. The answers from the two communities do more than any history book to illustrate their different experiences as Americans. Among those interviewed in Tuskegee were Lily McNair, president of Tuskegee University, Bernard Lafayette, an original freedom rider with the late Rep. John Lewis, and Douglass Washington Morris, a descendant of Booker T. Washington and Frederick Douglass.

Residents of Tuskegee often recalled when the city’s voting districts were redrawn so only white people would get to vote for city officials or the dangers older residents faced when trying to register to vote. Residents in South Berwick which is about 90 percent white, recalled the burden of bad weather or the challenge of childcare responsibilities when asked what barriers they had faced to voting. These voters were among 100 residents from each community interviewed about the importance of voting as part of a joint bicentennial project of the

~ News ~ ...VOTING from page 4 Tuskegee-South Berwick Sister City relationship. As part of the Together We Vote project, residents in these communities came together to create a book of all 200 interviews and the summary video about voting, the latest joint effort of the four-year-old sister city relationship. The project was launched to encourage citizen engagement in the election and to honor the 200th birthdays of both Alabama and Maine, the 22nd and 23rd states. It will be officially unveiled at a Zoom at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, September 22. The date was chosen because it is National Voter Registration Day. Residents of both towns are invited to join the Zoom, or watch on FaceBook Live for the one-hour virtual event that will include a performance by musicians from each town, a showing

of the Together We Vote video, readings from a handful of the 200 interviews and an emphasis on the importance of voting. A handful of the interviews were conducted via ZOOM due to COVID-19. The Together We Vote book opens with a quote from the late Rep. John Lewis and a 1961 photo of him with Bernard LaFayette, a Tuskegee resident interviewed for the project and included in the final video. LaFayette and Lewis were among the initial Freedom Riders, a group of civil rights activists who took bus trips through the American South in 1961 to protest segregated bus terminals. Those who want more information should email togetherwevote200@gmailcom. The launch will be available on facebook live.

State of Maine Voters Have Options STATEWIDE If you are not yet registered to vote, you need to submit a Maine Voter Registration Application! Visit the official Maine Secretary of State website at www.maine.gov/ portal/government/edemocracy/elections_voting.html for

any forms and instructions you may need. Nevertheless, Maine law allows you to register and vote in person on election day, November 3 this year. As for absentee ballots, being absent may have been a bad thing in school, but in the era of COVID-19, it is a safe

alternative to voting in person. To do so, you must request an absentee ballot and return it to your city or town clerk no less than one week before election day. To request one online, go to https://apps.web.maine.gov/ cgi-bin/online/AbsenteeBallot /index.pl.

11, 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. each day. Guests will be treated to antique trolley rides on a heritage railroad to the museum’s very own pumpkin patch, where guests select a pumpkin to take home. Back at the visitor’s center, families can paint their pumpkins

and participate in other COVID-safe family activities, including craft-in-a-bag, a cookie walk, photo scavenger hunt, and outdoor exhibits and displays. Lunch service this year will be available by Texas Grace Kitchen. To hold this event this

season, Seashore Trolley Museum has changed the traditional format and is taking extra precautions. “The event will be held over twice as many days this year to spread out our guests,” states the museum’s Executive Director Katie Orlando. “Trolleys that typically hold 50-100 guests will hold no more than 20-25 guests; pumpkins will be socially distanced at the patch; and no carnival games will be held at the field this year. Trolleys are cleaned before and after each ride, and masks are required in our visitor’s center, on the trolleys, and when social distancing isn’t possible indoors and outdoors.” It is unknown how the pandemic will impact Halloween this year, so even though it’s a little early to celebrate, the museum is encouraging guests to come in costume! Prizes will be given out each day for “Best Costume” and “Best Mask.”

~ Arts & Entertainment ~ Encore Presentation of Gray Family History SOUTH BERWICK On Thursday, September 24 at 7:30 p.m., John Demos, an archivist for the Counting House Museum in South Berwick, will present his talk on researching a line of the Gray family of South Berwick, and this time the presentation will be online. Learn about the discovery of a 17th-century Scottish homestead location and a 19th-century sawmill site. Participants will sign up on the Old Berwick Historical Society’s home page, and receive an email two days before the lecture for the presentation link. Free for members, suggested $5 donation for non-members. George Gray, born in Scotland, is believed to have

fought the English in the battle of Dunbar in 1650. After the battle, some of the Scottish prisoners were sold into indentured servitude to English possessions, including the English Colonies. Historians believe that was how George Gray arrived in New England, and went on to settle in South Berwick. Sparked by an interest to find more information about his homestead in South Berwick, once in the Gray family, Demos spent a year looking through documents and maps. During this lecture, titled “George to John - Six Generations in South Berwick: Digging in the Archives and the Ground,” he will talk about the Gray family his-

tory and discuss his search in archives at the Counting House Museum, in county records, and the surprising discovery he found in his own yard. An exhibit of his findings can currently be seen at the Counting

House Museum. The stories of the Dunbar prisoners are featured in the exhibit Unwilling Immigrants: From the Scottish Battlefield to the New World, 1650. The Counting House Museum is currently open by appointment only on Wednes-

days and Saturdays. The Old Berwick Historical Society’s 2020 lectures are generously sponsored by Kennebunk Savings and supported by historical society members and donors. More information is available by calling 207-384-0000 or going to www.oldberwick.org.

The Those Gone But Not Forgotten Walking Tour will take a trip back to the formation of early York, exploring the customs and symbolic rituals that accompanied burial in colonial America. What do the gravestones tell us about the deceased, be they rich or poor? Loyalist or Revolutionary? Ravaged by old age or taken as a child by illness? Visitors will learn about York’s earliest colonial citizens. Who were these people who ventured from their homes across the ocean to settle in this sparselypopulated land? With more than 100 gravestones still standing in York’s Old Burying Ground, the tour reveals much more than the location and

FINANCE & CAREER $9 Million in Relief for Homeless WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senator Susan Collins, the Chairman of the Housing and Urban Development Appropriations Subcommittee, announced that the State of Maine has been awarded a total of $8,836,614 in the second installment of funding to prevent and respond to COVID-19 among individuals and families who are homeless or receiving homeless assistance. This funding, awarded to the City of Portland and MaineHousing, was allocated through the CARES Act. In April, Senator Collins announced more than $16.5 million in the first installment of funding to support affordable housing, reduce homelessness, and bolster COVID-19 prevention and response efforts throughout the state.

“During this uncertain time, we must ensure that our most vulnerable populations receive the support and resources they need to stay safe and healthy,” said Senator Collins. “This important investment will help Maine’s state agencies and local governments as they continue to care for homeless individuals and families through-

out our state.” This funding, awarded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program, will support additional homeless assistance and homelessness prevention activities to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19.

Lung Association Plans to End Youth Vaping for Students AUGUSTA In Maine, 30.3% of high school students used e-cigarettes in 2019, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)’s 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Vaping harms developing lungs and overall health and may place people at an increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19. Now, when protecting lung health is more important than ever,

the American Lung Association today announced a broad plan to end youth vaping. “As kids prepare to head back to school, more students may experience social pressure to vape, while others may begin to vape in response to stress, including stress related to COVID19,” said Lance Boucher, Senior Division Director of State Public Policy for the American Lung Association in Maine. “We’re already facing what the Surgeon

I Just Want My Teeth Cleaned!

We Are Covid Ready: You’re In Good Hands Comprehensive Cleaning & Free Oral Exam No Judgment * No Pressure * No Stress Environment

General refers to as a ‘youth vaping epidemic.’ Our communities need support, and as the nation’s trusted champion of lung health, the American Lung Association is proud to offer Maine schools, parents and students proven approaches to end youth vaping in our communities and state.” The American Lung Association’s comprehensive plan to end youth vaping encompasses education, advocacy and research, and has four components: “Get Your Head Out of the Cloud” public awareness campaign with the Ad Council equips parents with the facts about e-cigarettes and support

conversations before kids start to vape. The campaign includes free educational resources and guides, conversation starters and facts about vaping at www.talkaboutvaping.org. Vape-Free Schools Initiative to help school administrators and educators address the surge of youth vaping through guidance in implementing a comprehensive tobacco use policy, an alternative to suspension program for students found non-compliant with existing tobacco use policies, as well as offering a voluntary youth-centered tobacco cessation, including vaping cessation assistance, for youth wanting to quit tobacco use for good. Participating schools will be recognized as part of the American Lung Association Vape-Free Schools

Initiative in their communities and with parents and staff. Targeted advocacy plan to advance proven e-cigarette policies at local, state and federal levels. In Maine, key priorities include increasing tobacco taxes on all tobacco products, ending the sale of flavored tobacco products, and maintaining strong funding to the state’s tobacco prevention and control program. $2 Million research investment to understand the effects of vaping on developing lungs. The organization is also partnering with Northwestern Medicine in a $25 million National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded grant to study the longitudinal lung health of millennials, including the longterm impact of vaping.

Drivers Should Not Hang Masks on Mirrors STATEWIDE With varying requirements across Northern New England to use masks/facial coverings in public, many motorists are keeping masks in their vehicles. A common observation finds motorists hanging masks from the rear-view mirror as a convenient way to keep them handy. However, a mask or any other object hanging from a mirror can partially block your field of vision, increasing the risk of a crash. “Having a clear field of vision is extremely important to your safety when on the road,” says Pat Moody, manager of public affairs for AAA Northern New England. “Items such as masks, air fresheners, parking placards or anything else that reduces your ability to see things around you is a safety hazard and in many states the act is against the law.” In Maine, state laws include Title 29-A - Motor Vehicles And Traffic Chapter 19 - Operation Rule #2: “A person may not operate a motor vehicle with an object placed or hung in or on the vehicle, other than the required or provided equipment of the vehicle, in a manner that obstructs or interferes with the view of the operator through the windshield or prevents the operator from having a clear and full view of the road and conditions of traffic.” Minimum fine of $325.

Health & Fitness Dental Health Is Important For Overall Health Worried about the health of your teeth and gums during COVID-19? For those of us on the “older” side, this feels like déjà vu. In the early ‘80s when the first reports of a “new illness” surfaced in the research literature, we didn’t know if the virus was transmitted by blood or saliva. It’s hard to imagine it now; hygenists didn’t even wear gloves or masks for every patient back then! Dental professionals have always followed universal precautions for infection control and strict safety protocols when the crisis of the decade was AIDS, and the

$3.1M for Environmental Priorities WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senators Susan Collins and Angus King announced that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has awarded the Maine Department of Environmental Protection a total of $3,170,745 to support a variety of environmental programs through the Performance Partnership Grant program. The federal funds will be used to administer environmental programs for air, water, and toxics throughout the state and direct resources to address environmental and public health concerns. “The success of Maine’s economy is heavily dependent on the protection of our air and water,” said Senators Collins and King in a joint statement. “We welcome this continued funding, which will enable the Maine Department of Environmental Protection to continue their work to preserve marine and land environments and ensure Mainers continue to have access to clean, safe air and water.” The Maine Department of Environmental Protection will use the Performance Partnership Grant funding to support air monitoring activities, continue implementing a comprehensive water monitoring strategy covering lakes, rivers, estuaries and wetlands, continue the development of biological assessment techniques for lakes and wetlands, and implement a beach monitoring program. This award also includes funding from the EPA’s Wetland Program Development Grants, which will protect, manage, and restore Maine wetlands.

same rules apply for COVID-19. Today you can feel safe knowing that thousands of people nationwide have received routine dental procedures in the last few months without incident. Expect to be asked pre-screening questions and having your temperature taken the day of your appointment. Most offices are recommending pre-rinsing with hydrogen peroxide to knock down the viral load and are now wearing Level III or KN95 masks plus a face shield and using high speed suction to reduce aerosols by as much as 95%. Check with your office to learn more about their specific protocols. Dental offices are now open and are providing services that are critical to the overall health of our patients. Dental professionals are on the front lines of health care, noting that their knowledge of the oral-systemic link has made all aware of the oral health

We’ve tripled our retail space, plus we finally have a separate receiving area where donations can be sorted and priced. This beautiful antique farmhouse provides cozy digs for up to 20 kitties. Next year the Carriage House will be transformed into a Cat Cafe. A spacious upstairs room with open beams will be our Adoption Room, where 8-10 kitties waiting for immediate adoption can romp and play and meet their new families. Outside, we have an acre of land with a pond filled with cattails (natch) and woods that are home to an abundance of woodland creatures

Open for In Store Shopping!

We’re so excited to begin this new chapter in Safe Haven’s journey. We can’t wait to introduce you to our newest location! And please continue to shop at our original shop at 1517 Post Rd, at the Wells Plaza until it closes permanently next March. Scaredy Cat School will eventually move to Cattail Farm, along with shop cats Kanga, Chilly Willie, Hootie and Itty Bitty Boo Boo. They will have free roam of the entire barn, yet still have the comfort and safe familiarity of their schoolroom until they acclimate to their new surroundings. Both of our thrift shops are seeking donations of fine furnishings, cottage and farmhouse décor and accessories, fun eccentric items like musical instruments, old radios, unique and fanciful items. Jewelry, art, old china, pottery, trinket boxes, cat motif, colorful or handsome throws and pillows are also welcome. Call 207-229-8314 to schedule a donation time.

Maine arrangements are entrusted to the Johnson Funeral Home in North Berwick, where condolences may be expressed at www.johnsonfuneralhomeme.com.

In addition to sending flowers to the funeral, there is a growing trend to send flowers to the home of the bereaved after the service. Some people also send flowers to the church in memory of the deceased. Flowers create a background of warmth and beauty which adds to the dignity and consolation of the service. Those who have attended services where there were no flowers have noted that something was

missing – that the funeral was depressing. The funeral meets the bereaved’s need for support. Death throws people into despair and depression by separating them from one who has provided love, companionship, and security. The funeral and customs provide the means by which those close to them can give their support and share their suffering. The funeral period provides for the expression of sorrow. Only through talking about the past can the bereaved person realize the extent of the relationship with the deceased, and accept the loss and suffering. Only through weeping and talking to good listeners can they release their grief and feelings of guilt and hostility. Experts in grief therapy believe that it can be expressed best through rites, rituals, and ceremonies. The ceremony deals primarily with intellectual concepts and doesn’t fully engage the

FUNERAL HOME

Kittery, ME

As my friend Todd Van Beck recently wrote in an article: Flowers are sent to funerals for several reasons. Flowers are a means of expression. It is often difficult for those mourning a death to put feelings into words. Flowers are a visual expression of love, sympathy, and respect. They are a way of lending support and sharing the burden of grief.

NORTH BERWICK – Beverly A. Randall of Lebanon Road, passed away peacefully on September 12, 2020 at Varney Crossing with her family by her side. She was born in North Berwick on October 8, 1941, one of nine children born to Raymond and Esther (Verge) Staples. Beverly graduated from North Berwick High School in 1959 where as a cheerleader, she met her future husband, Richard (Buzzy) Randall. After their marriage, they moved to Fort Bragg, where he was stationed, eventually coming home to North Berwick where they raised their family. For 42 years, Beverly was a

May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be adored, glorified, loved and preserved throughout the world now and forever. Sacred Heart of Jesus, pray for us. St. Jude, worker of miracles, pray for us. St. Jude, helper of the hopeless, pray for us. Say this prayer 9 times a day, by the 9th day your prayers will be answered. It has never been known to fail. Publication must be promised and done.

Bernier-Gelinas We are often asked by the families we serve, here at JS Pelkey & Son and Bernier Funeral Homes, why certain expressions and traditions exist in the funeral service industry. One of the most often asked questions is “Why send flowers to a memorial service or funeral, aren’t they just a waste of money?” Well nothing could be further from the truth.

Beverly A. Randall, 78

CNA for Varney Crossing Nursing Home. She had a special gift in her bedside manner with the patients and caring for people in general. Beverly loved finding a good deal, whether it be at Mardens or a yard sale. Thru the years she enjoyed crafting different things like hooked hugs and ceramics. She enjoyed gardening, picking berries and her birds. Beverly baked for everyone and was famous for her zuchinni relish. Most importantly, Beverly loved her family. Her children and grandchildren came first in her life and they shared a special bond. Beverly was predeceased by her husband Richard Randall; brother Mike Staples; two brothers-in-law, Wayne Avery and David Wilson; and sonin-law Stacy Haskell. Surviving are her daughter Melanie Taylor of North Berwick; son Mark Randall of Lebanon; three granddaughters, Shelby Taylor of York, Ashley Randall of Sanford, and Amber Randall of Berwick; four great-grandchildren, Tucker Ballou, Jaxon and Colby Brochu, and Logan Boidi; four

There are three points to be stressed, finally, in connection with the tradition of funeral flowers. First, the role of flowers are both symbolic and aesthetic. They add great value to the richness and meaning of the ritual. Second, flowers represent sympathy extended to the bereaved. Third, flowers are sent to both the living and the dead. They are sent to the living as comfort and as tokens of respect for the deceased. We, at the JS Pelkey & Son and the Bernier Funeral Homes, hold the value of the work our local florists do in very high regard. We always encourage the families we serve to contact a local florist directly. Certainly there are national floral outlets that can be reached with a simple Google search but, honestly, the quality of these products are often substandard. Simply click the “Send Flowers” tab on our website and you will be directed to our list of trusted florists. Please call us about any questions with which we may help.

Dear Chris, You will need Word (or another program that can read and edit Word Files) installed on your new laptop, however, you don’t absolutely have to purchase a new copy for the new computer. If you purchased Office 2013 on a disk, you should be able to install it from the disk on your new laptop. If your laptop doesn’t have an optical drive, you can either use a usb optical drive, or copy the contents of the disk onto a USB data stick (on another computer that has an optical drive) and install Office from the data stick. If you purchased Office in the form of a small card with the product key on it, you would have used your Microsoft account to download and install Office. You can always go and download it again at: https://setup.office.com/ Just sign into your Microsoft account, and all the office products you have purchased will be listed. If the first two options don’t work for you, you can purchase Office, or just Word again. Just make sure that you register it with your Microsoft account, and that you save your account information so that you can re-download it in the future. Another option would be to use free, open source office software. My favorite is LibreOffice at www.libreoffice.org. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady, Your column is terrific. Thank you! I just purchased a 2-in-1 laptop that has Windows 10 as the operating system. My issue is how do I open and edit my Word documents I’ve saved onto a USB drive from my older computer? They were all saved using Microsoft Word 2013 version. Do I need to purchase Word (Office) again and download to my new computer in order to open, edit and re-save these documents on my USB Drive ? I only use Word in the Office set of programs (not Excel, not Powerpoint, etc.). Thanks, Chris
