DHART Training Seminar Takes
Flight in Hudson
Volume 27 Number 13 October 2, 2015 16 Pages

The command center for DHART is located in Lebanon, and the Command Center looks very similar
to the Hudson Fire Departments Dispatch.

You may never hear the whir of the rotors of the
helicopter en route to save your life.
Hudson LZ Command calling DHART 2.

Hudson Fire, read me.
Got you on. Clear. Two minutes distance to

We are located Hills House. The site is clear.
There is a dumpster in the rear. It is secure.

DHART 2 - Thank you.
As Firefighter/Paramedic Tom Sullivan exited the
cab of Engine 4, he said, Stay behind me.
As we walked to the edge of the field and
faced the 75-foot-by-75-foot LZ (landing zone),
the DHART 2 (Dartmouth Hitchcock Advanced
Response Team) Medical Helicopter had begun to
circle the fields of the Hills House in its approach
to the LZ. One pilot and two medical personnel
staffed the helicopter and were traveling to
Hudson for a hands-on training seminar with the
Hudson Fire Department and an Alvirne High
School class.
Joining the HFD was teacher Jane Colavitos
health sciences and tech students. With the
Hudson firefighters, they too were offered the
opportunity to sit, climb, and ask any and all
questions of the DHART 2 professionals about
their job and service to our community.

18 minutes.
The 40-foot helicopter with a 9-foot main rotor
length cruises at a speed of 140-155 mph. It is
equipped with a search light and fix lights on the
skids. When traveling at night, DHART personnel
wear night vision goggles to assist them.
The LZ (landing zone) needs vary from
daytime and nighttime. During the day, an area
75-feet-by-75-feet is necessary, while nighttime
requirements are larger: 100 feet by 100 feet. The
final call to land the helicopter or not remains at
the discretion of the pilot, and the helicopter is
authorized to land on New Hampshire roads and
highways when needed.
Emergency personnel are taught to make sure
the LZ is free of obstructions and debris. This
instruction would include the back of pick-ups,
dumpsters, items attached to car racks, and items
within boats. The aircraft will generation down
winds between 90 to 100 mph, explained Saur.
The take off and the landing are the most
dangerous, he continued. That is when most
accidents occur. Firefighters are encouraged to
wet down loose dirt and are taught that we do
not fly over parked vehicles. Power lines are our
nemesis. At night, tie a flashlight to a telephone
pole and point the light up the pole so that we
can see it. Make sure the hoses attached to the
beds of your trucks are also strapped down. And,
plastic bags. If a plastic bag gets caught in our tail
rotor, the helicopter will just spin, and that will
not be good.

Lumberjacks Slice, Saw, and Slam through Tree Trunks


by Doug Robinson
The scene on the lawns of the Hills House looked surreal as world
class woodsmen, men and women, came to Hudson to claim
bragging rights for being the best at their craft.
The lumberjack language is unique to their craft. Competing in
events such a Mens Standing Block, Womens Underhand,
Mens Singlebuck, Jack and Jill Crosscut, and Springboard,
these athletes performed their skills with severely sharpened steel
saws.
Contestants who participated in the show came from all over New
England and Canada. This years competition added the famous
Frying Pan Toss.
When not watching the chips fly or the chainsaws roar, children
were entertained with the making of model cars, which they could
take home. Londonderrys Home Depot supplied the supervision
and materials for this fun project.
During the show, the professional lumberjacks taught the audience
the difference between a cross cuts and an underhand cut, and what
a single buck is.
Dave Johns, while holding the microphone to announce the events,
entertained the audience with his knowledge of the lumberjacks,
the dangers of being a lumberjack, as well as the strategies that went
into being a world-class lumberjack.
Both men and women competed, separately, and together.
The crowds are great this year, commented Hudson Historical
Societys President David Alukonis. This is a great turnout.

World Champion Woodsman, Mike Sullivan, Conn., climbs the pole and easily
wins the competition as he slices through the top portion of the tree.

Pelham resident Jessica Edwards teams up with Hudsons Ben Marshall as they cut through
a 15-inch pine log, not once, but twice, in only 16 seconds.
The competitors spent the day
as they participated in the third
annual lumberjack event. The
public watched as lumberjacks
sawed through the girth of a
15-inch-thick pine tree in just
16 seconds. They also watched
lumberjacks notch a 16-foot
vertical tree at 4-foot intervals as
they climbed, only to axe through
the top one foot.
The show was conceived by
Alvirne High School 2007
graduate, Ben Marshall. Since
his graduation, Ben went on to
attend the University of New
Hampshire, where he continued
his love for the sport by joining
his colleges lumberjack team.
He spends his winters at Disney
World putting on shows and
he travels throughout New
England competing against other
woodsmen. He has competed in
12 states.
Last weekend, he was the
hometown hero and the

hometown favorite. The crowd


cheered as Ben took to the field to
compete in the underhand chop.
Here, competitors stand on the tree
block using a five-pound singlebit axe, competitors chop through
a horizontal aspen log 12 inches
in diameter and 28 inches long.
Timing begins on the signal Go
and ends when the log is severed. A
new world record was set in 2006
by Jason Wynyard with a time of
15.94. New in 2007, competitors
moved from the underhand chop
to the standing block chop for one
continuous timed event known
as the Endurance Event writes

Garrett Frohman Begins Eagle Scout Project


to Beautify Library Park
by Doug Robinson
Pressure washers and paint scrapers have been
attacking the dog house, gazebo, and bench
at Library Park as potential Eagle Scout Garrett
Frohman has begun to brighten and beautify the
park.
This past weekend, Frohman, family, and friends
arrived at the park and began the preparation to
improve the park.
The Hudson Board of Selectmen approved the
project in a meeting during an earlier meeting.
Scout Frohmans project consists of scraping
and repainting the bench, irrigation house,
and gazebo at Library Park, in Hudson writes
Frohman. His efforts are to beautify the park for
the many service events that occur at the park.
To date, Froham has already aligned 10 to 15
people to partner on the project. Scouts will be
effectively trained onsite before project work will
begin continues Frohman.
Frohman has almost reached his fundraising
goal of $400 by hosting a car wash.
He estimates that his work will continue for
another four weekends until he has completed his
Eagle Scout project.

Hudson Polices Drug Take Back


is a Tremendous Success
by Doug Robinson
The Hudson Police Drug Take Back Program provided residents an opportunity to clean
out their medicine cabinets in a safe and orderly manner.
The Drug Take Back Program conducted by the Hudson Police Department is held
during the same time as the National Drug Take Back Program. It is a great opportunity a
great opportunity for those who have accumulated unwanted, unused prescription drugs,
to safely dispose of those medications writes NH.gov.
The Drug Take Back program accepts all solid dosage pharmaceutical products and
liquids in consumer containers. These include all controlled and non-controlled drugs,
over-the-counter medication, and liquids such as
cough syrup. Medications may be disposed of in
the original container or by removing them from the
original container, and dropping them directly into the
collection box. Liquids should remain in the original
container.
In addition to the drug box at the Hudson Police
Station, the HPD also set up a collection site at
the Hudson Walmart. Each month, the collection
box at the HPD needs to be emptied twice, due to
the publics response to safely getting rid of their
unwanted drugs.
This past weekend, the HPD collected in excess of
four good-sized boxes that will be delivered to the
DEA drop spot, and then burned.
We are filling boxes at a rate of one per hour,
commented HPD Officer Allison Cummings at the
Walmart.
Residents bring plastic bags filled to the
brim with medications no longer needed

BOS Approves Police Lieutenants


Position to Oversee
Detective Division
by Doug Robinson
We will staff the
position by covering
the delta between the
position of a patrol
officer and lieutenant,
stated Hudson Police
Chief Jason Lavoie.
Then, next year, we
will go to warrant for a
new patrol officer. This
way, I work within my
budget for this year.
The Hudson Board
of Selectmen voted
unanimously in favor
for the addition of
supervision, once
Captain Bill Avery
reviewed the job
description of the
lieutenant, and
spoke of the ongoing
responsibilities of
those in the detective
division now.
With the scope of the work that is handled
in the detectives office, which is shown on the
attached organization sheets, there is a need to
create this position, wrote Chief Lavoie, in his
September to memo to the BOS.
Currently, the Detective Division for the
Hudson Police Department has four detectives,
with a supervising sergeant. Each detective has
an ongoing list of criminal cases that they are
working on, stated the chief.

The proposed lieutenants position as written,


lists 27 bullets of responsibilities to which he must
answer to Captain William Avery.
The detective division not only handles all the
criminal cases, they also handle and process:
evidence, computer forensics, grand jury, criminal
analysis, terrorist liaison, polygraphs, pistol
permits, task force, crime scene investigations,
drug forfeiture, drug court, sex offender list, sexual
assaults response team, and background checks.

Remember
Hudson When ...
The Ice Break
submitted by Ruth Parker
How many of our readers remember the ice break in the Merrimack River? Not
many years after the wooden bridge was built at Taylor Falls, an ice jam and high
water pressed so hard against the Hudson pier that there were fears for the safety
of the bridge. To avoid this danger in the future this ice break was erected in 1834.
Placed in the river on the Hudson side just north of the bridge this ice break has
protected three bridges against surging ice flows: the wooden bridge, the iron bridge,
and the concrete bridge. It was removed during the construction of the Veterans
Memorial Bridge, the northern span of our current twin bridges. Photo from the
Historical Society Collection.

Mutual Aid Called to


Battle Woods Fire

submitted by David S. Morin, HFD Public Information Liaison


At 4:26 p.m., Sunday, Sept. 27, a resident walking in the woods off
of Kimball Hill Road notified Hudson Fire Alarm of a brush fire on a
path leading into the forest. Hudson Medic 1, operating just down
the street from the fire, reported a large column of smoke coming
from the area of the fire and responded to the scene. Medic 1s crew
walked some distance into the woods and found a brush fire one to
two acres in size.
Firefighters initially used hand tools and backpack pumps to work
the fire area until 700 feet of hose could be run into the woods to
supply forestry trucks. The fire involved a thick layer of leaves and
underbrush. Due to the size of the fire mutual crews were called in
to assist fighting the fire.
Multiple hand lines were stretched around the fire to bring the
flames under control at 5:42 p.m. Extensive overhaul and wetting
down of the fire area continued for an additional one and half hours.
Firefighters returned to the scene on both Monday and Tuesday to
extinguish flare ups of pockets of fire that were burning deep in the
ground.
Twelve firefighters, officers and chief officers from the Central,
Burns Hill and Robinson Road fire stations staffing one squad, one
tanker, one ambulance, and two command vehicles from Hudson
and fire companies from Nashua, Windham, Londonderry and
Pelham responded to the scene.

The Word Around Town...


Letters to
our Editor

submitted by Rep. Eric Estevez


State Representative Eric Estevez (R-Pelham), has made fighting the
states drug crisis one of his top priorities.
Considered to be the strongest and most comprehensive anti-drug
bill ever filed in state history, Rep. Estevez filed bill LSR 2016-2347
titled: relative to the penalty for possession, use, or sale of fentanyl.
If passed into law, dealers that lace drugs with deadly fentanyl will
face a class A felony if convicted. Current state law does not include
fentanyl in its anti- drug statutes.
According to the latest statistics from the state medical examiners
office, New Hampshire recorded 321 drug-related deaths in 2014.
There may be more, but the state is still awaiting the results of
toxicology tests in other deaths.
Of those 321 deaths, 97 were caused by heroin alone or a
combination of heroin and other drugs. Another 143 of those deaths
were related to the painkiller fentanyl, either by itself or combined
with other drugs.
In 39 cases, heroin and fentanyl appeared together.
Estevez considers his efforts to combat the drug epidemic in the
state a moral responsibility.
The bill holds drug dealers that lace drugs with the deadly fentanyl
accountable for their actions, said Estevez. It will also provide (a)
deterrent not to deal in New Hampshire.
He continued, This bill will not solve the heroin epidemic, but is
a start in the right direction. If this bill can save a life, it is a success.
Rep. Estevez acknowledges the hard work and dedication by law
enforcement including New Hampshire Attorney General Joseph
Foster and Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey. The war
against drugs requires a team effort, said Estevez.

Thanks for all of the Fuss


On behalf of my entire family, I wanted to take the time to thank everyone
who came to support us at my grandfathers funeral on Sept. 21. He was an
amazing man who will be missed by so many, and that was evident in taking
a quick peek around St. Johns on Monday morning. The amount of support
we have received is absolutely overwhelming, and makes an extremely difficult
situation just a little bit easier. From the superintendent, to the principal, to
the police officers, coworkers, friends, and family- every person in that church
reminded us of how loved he was by all.
To Leo Dumont, for all you did to help with the planning and coordinating
of everything- from scanning the pictures to put on the website, the obituary,
the beautiful remembrance candles, parking, assisting with everything big and
small. Nothing is easy about this situation, but having a contact so kind and
helpful doesnt hurt.
A huge thank you to the HPD for all you did to help honor my grandfather
in exactly the way he deserved, but never would have expected. Somehow, you
made our family even prouder than we already were that my brother has joined
the department, and we are so grateful for all you did- its something we will
never forget. My grandfather was so proud of Cody, and all that you did truly
meant the world to us.
Lastly, to the staff of The White Birch in Hudson who put on a great event
for us at such a tough time. It gave us all the opportunity to gather with our
friends and family to remember my grandfather, and we truly do appreciate
your services that day.
Im sure my grandfather was up there sipping his Sambuca while looking
down and wondering what all the fuss was about - which is just one of the many
reasons why he was one of the very best men Ive ever known.
Again, a huge thank you to everybody who has sent a text, made a call,
cooked a meal, and just been there for us. It means more than you know, and
will never be forgotten.
Jenna (Lambert) Hatfield, Hudson

Liberty Utilities Pitches


Expanding Service to
Hudson and Windham
by Barbara OBrien
Liberty Utilities has filed a request to obtain a copyright from the
New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission to expand their services
into portions of Hudson and Windham. The request was filed on
Aug. 31 and asks that Liberty Utilities be permitted to expand their
electricity distribution services and natural gas lines into these two
areas.
Mike Lecada, representing Liberty Utilities, said the location for
the expanded lines is still somewhat fluid at this point. Lecada
said he anticipates it will take several months for the Public Utilities
Commission to complete the review of the companys request.
Should Liberty Utilities be granted permission for the expansion
of services to Hudson and Windham customers, construction could
begin as early as the spring of 2016, with service available to
customers by the winter of 2016-2017.
Liberty Utilities is planning to present a full presentation to
Windham Selectmen later this month; most likely on Monday,
October 5, at the Community Development Building, next to the old
town hall on North Lowell Road. The selectmens meeting will begin
at 7 p.m. and will be open to the public.
Lecada assured town officials that the company intends to keep
any construction off the road, in the right-of-way, wherever possible.
He also said Liberty Utilities would be responsible for all patching
of any roads that might need to be disrupted. We try to be as
least disruptive as possible, Lecada emphasized. If approved, the
project would begin in the area of Mammoth Road and adjacent
neighborhoods.

Hibernation has
not yet Begun
The Fox has not started his hibernation early, while it might
have seemed that way. A multitude of personnel changes at the
Area News Group has had the Foxs feet moving in a multitude of
directions. While many politicians might be hoping the Fox Den
had collapsed on him, it did not.
Watching the Hudson Selectmen on Tuesday nights have had his
ears up. Prepared statement from Selectman Coutu following a
workshop meeting. Should Selectman McGrath apologize or not,
that is the question. Why does she have the battle flag flying for
the town planner? Sorry, his office doesnt have a window or he
does not have a full-time secretary. But watching what the town
planners in Windham, Pelham and Salem do for development,
both infrastructure and economic, especially Windham, Hudson
should ask for their job description to model Hudsons after.
Next we have to say goodbye to Captain Todd Hansen of the fire
department after 31 years. Can this be seen as the start of a fire
department personnel transition?
The next question is ... Why is the Hudson School Board
holding non-public meetings on Thursday? I guess only time will

The Fox understands that there is a letter from the Windham
Selectmen chairman to the Hudson Selectmen, but the content is
still secret. Maybe it will be reviewed in the selectmens workshop
on Tuesday.
While the paper thumbs column is full of complaints about
the noise from the Londonderry Gun Club, which abuts some
Litchfield residential homes, down in the south end of town is
the Hudson Fish and Game Club, who are good neighbors. They
do many great things like the Thanksgiving dinners that they and
their community friends prepare for. I believe the number was
1,600 last year. This month they have are doing a fundraiser for a
resident who has cancer and needs some help. Hudson Fish and
Game members will always step up when there is a need.
Have questions for the Fox, give him a call.

NH Delegation Pushes
for More Public Input
in Pipeline Permitting
Process
submitted by the Office of Senator Jeanne Shaheen
Thursday, Sept. 24, New Hampshires Congressional Delegation
renewed its request to the Department of Energy Inspector
General to address specific concerns about the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commissions permitting process for interstate natural
gas pipelines. The inquiry comes as the delegation continues
to seek greater consideration of public comments by Granite
State residents and communities potentially impacted by Kinder
Morgans proposed Northeast Energy Direct natural gas pipeline.
The letter to the Inspector General, from Senator Jeanne
Shaheen (D-NH), Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Representative Ann
McLane Kuster (NH-2) and Representative Frank Guinta (NH-1),
calls for a response to detailed questions raised in a July letter
regarding how FERC will meaningfully take into consideration
the concerns of New Hampshire residents impacted by proposed
infrastructure projects.
New Hampshire residents and stakeholders remain concerned
with how public input is considered during FERCs permitting
process for energy infrastructure projects, the Delegation wrote:
it is imperative that the public play a prominent role in the
permitting process.
The Delegation goes on to outline five specific questions on
how the Inspector Generals review of FERCs permitting process
will take into account ways to improve communication with
impacted residents and communities, take into account the
comments and concerns of New Hampshire residents and ensure
that any project is in the public interest.
The New Hampshire Delegation has called for more public
meetings in communities that could be affected by the proposed
pipeline and has expressed concerns about the ability of impacted
residents to contribute to the federal review process of Kinder
Morgans Northeast Energy Direct natural gas pipeline.

FFA Conducts Dog and Cat


Vaccination Clinic

Good Samaritans Assist in Locating


Driver of Car Involved in Crash
submitted by Hudson Police Department
On Thursday, Sept, 24, at about 7:23 p.m., members
of the Hudson Police Department responded near 203
Lowell Road for a two-vehicle collision. It was reported
one of the vehicles fled the scene. Upon arrival,
Hudson Police began an investigation into the crash.
Witnesses reported the license plate of the vehicle that
fled and one witness followed the vehicle, which had
heavy front damage, east on Pelham Road. Pelham
Road is completely closed near 36 Pelham Road for a
bridge project. The witness and other Good Samaritans
blocked the vehicle there, at the closure, until officers
arrived moments later.
During the initial stages of the investigation, it was
determined a 2012 Toyota Camry, driven by Ryan
Spring, 25, of Pepperell, Mass., was traveling north
on Lowell Road near Oblate Drive. He was the lone

Having come in first in the NH
competition as well as first in the
regional competition, the students
earned their slot to compete
nationally in the Veterinary Science

October 2015.
Member of the first-place team

Liberty Utilities Pitches Expanding


Service to Hudson and Windham
by Barbara OBrien
Liberty Utilities has filed a request to obtain a
copyright from the New Hampshire Public Utilities
Commission to expand their services into portions of
Hudson and Windham. The request was filed on Aug.
31 and asks that Liberty Utilities be permitted to expand
their electricity distribution services and natural gas
lines into these two areas.
Mike Lecada, representing Liberty Utilities, said the
location for the expanded lines is still somewhat fluid
at this point. Lecada said he anticipates it will take
several months for the Public Utilities Commission to
complete the review of the companys request.
Should Liberty Utilities be granted permission for
the expansion of services to Hudson and Windham
customers, construction could begin as early as the

State Representative Eric Estevez (R-Pelham), has
made fighting the states drug crisis one of his top
priorities.
Considered to be the strongest and most
comprehensive anti-drug bill ever filed in state history,
Rep. Estevez filed bill LSR 2016-2347 titled: relative
to the penalty for possession, use, or sale of fentanyl.
If passed into law, dealers that lace drugs with deadly
fentanyl will face a class A felony if convicted. Current
state law does not include fentanyl in its anti- drug
statutes.
According to the latest statistics from the state medical
examiners office, New Hampshire recorded 321 drugrelated deaths in 2014.
There may be more, but the state is still awaiting the
results of toxicology tests in other deaths.
Of those 321 deaths, 97 were caused by
heroin alone or a combination of heroin and

other drugs. Another 143 of those deaths were related to


the painkiller fentanyl, either by itself or combined with
other drugs.
In 39 cases, heroin and fentanyl appeared together.
Estevez considers his efforts to combat the drug
epidemic in the state a moral responsibility.
The bill holds drug dealers that lace drugs with the
deadly fentanyl accountable for their actions, said
Estevez. It will also provide (a) deterrent not to deal in
New Hampshire.
He continued, This bill will not solve the heroin
epidemic, but is a start in the right direction. If this bill
can save a life, it is a success.
Rep. Estevez acknowledges the hard work and
dedication by law enforcement including New
Hampshire Attorney General Joseph Foster and
Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey. The
war against drugs requires a team effort, said Estevez.

most likely on Monday, October 5, at the Community

North Lowell Road. The selectmens meeting will begin

Lecada assured town officials that the company
intends to keep any construction off the road, in the
right-of-way, wherever possible. He also said Liberty
Utilities would be responsible for all patching of any
roads that might need to be disrupted. We try to be
as least disruptive as possible, Lecada emphasized.
If approved, the project would begin in the area of

At the same time, a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado was
also traveling north on Lowell Road. The Chevrolet
was driven by Brent Gelinas, 51, also of Pepperell.
He was the lone occupant of the Chevrolet. The front
of the Chevrolet struck the Toyota in the rear causing
heavy damage to the Toyota. Spring was treated at the
scene by the Hudson Fire Department for a non-life
threatening injury. He refused any further transportation
to a hospital. He was seatbelted at the time of the crash.
During the continuing investigation, it was further
determined Gelinas was impaired. He was arrested
for Driving While Intoxicated, a class B misdemeanor,
and Conduct After an Accident, a class B Felony, due to
personal injury to another. Gelinas was bailed on $500
cash. He is scheduled for arraignment on Oct. 8 at the

During a Senate floor speech on Tuesday, Sept.
22, U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) repeated her
calls for President Obama to nominate a permanent
inspector general for the U.S. Department of
Veterans Affairs. The VA inspector general is
responsible for providing independent oversight
and investigating claims of misconduct. Last week
Senator Ayotte attended a Homeland Security and
Governmental Affairs Committee hearing about VA
mismanagement and heard from whistleblowers
who had been retaliated against for reporting abuses
within the VA, as well as Deputy IG of the VA Linda

counsel, and a VA official.

really shocking failures, including veterans being
denied care after being placed on secret wait lists,
experiencing extended delays for benefits or endless
wait times for appeal reviews or action on claims,
said Senator Ayotte during her floor speech. These
failures are outrageous and that words used a
lot around here but this truly does define what is
happening in our VA.
Senator Ayotte has raised the lack of a permanent
VA watchdog at multiple hearings. In June, Ayotte
said it was unacceptable that the administration has
failed to nominate a permanent IG at the VA since
2013. At this weeks hearing, Ayotte highlighted the
need to protect whistleblowers who are doing their
job and protecting veterans. She also reiterated the
fact that there is bipartisan concern about the lack of
a VA inspector general, and that the president should

act without delay on a nomination.


It is just absurd that it has been 631 days that we
havent had a permanent inspector general at the
VA If the president really cares about getting this
right, then hell nominate a permanent inspector
general, said Ayotte at Tuesdays hearing. I think
it says a lot that people on both sides of the aisle
have asked him to do that and were 631 days into
it. I think our men and women in uniform deserve
better than that, so that [they] can have permanent
leadership on this very, very important oversight
issue.
Recently, Senator Ayotte cosponsored the
Department of Veterans Affairs Accountability
Act of 2015 (S.1082), which would authorize the
VA to penalize or terminate employees based on
misconduct or poor performance.
At the beginning of September, Senator Ayotte
led a bipartisan letter to the president in light of a
recently released report that found 307,000 veterans
died while their applications to be enrolled for
health care from the VA were pending. The letter
called on the administration to nominate a potential
IG to stop the mistreatment of the nations veterans
and help rebuild trust in the agency. In June, Senator
Ayotte signed a similar letter to the President, led by
Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI).
Additionally, Senators Ayotte, John Boozman
(R-AR) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) introduced
legislation last Congress to address vacancies
of presidentially-nominated IG positions. The
vacant Inspectors General Act would require the
nomination of a candidate to each IG position
within 210 days of a vacancy or the authority to fill
the job would be transferred to Congress.

Exploring Hurricanes And El Nio


by Joseph DAleo, Certified Consulting Meteorologist (CCM)
We had a sunny, dry, at times hot late summer and more pleasant
though still too dry early fall. It has been my experience that in dry
summers and early falls, sometimes we make up for the deficits very
quickly with 5 or more inches of rain in a short period of time often
associated with a fall tropical event or noreaster.
By the time this is published, models suggest we will be playing
that kind of catch up, with a series of heavy rain and a potentially
bigger newsmaker event. One of the series of storms that will
sweep through the east this week delivering heavy rain has tropical
characteristics and has been named Joaquin. The pattern has been
reminiscent of 1991, which is remembered for Bob and Grace
(which was entrained into what was called the Perfect Storm) or
even to some degree Sandy in 2012. There will be a big blocking
high pressure to the north. This creates more wind and wave action
and keeps the storm from escaping out to sea. In both 1991 and
2012 summers, El Nios were trying to develop. It succeeded in
1991 but fell apart in 2012. This year is more like 1991, in fact even
stronger.
What Is El Nio?
In Spanish, the term El Nio refers to the Christ Child (literally
The Boy). El Nio was so named because most years some
warming in the Pacific near South America was often noticed around
Christmas. It is an event where warmer than normal water develops
near the equator from near the dateline to South America. La Nia
(The Girl) is the opposite of El Nio and characterized by colder
than normal water in the same locations.
The normal state of the equatorial oceans in the Pacific is a plume
of relatively cool water along the equator extending west from
South America. This is due
to the pressure patterns in
the subtropics that produce
the trade winds that reliably
blow from the northeast in
the Northern Hemisphere
and southeast in the southern
hemisphere converging near
the equator. As they push
water west, colder deep water
rises up near South America
and is carried by the winds
west right along the equator.
Periodically (on average
every four years or so), these
equatorial winds weaken
allowing warmer water piled
up in the western Pacific to
slosh east, leading to El Nio.
See the El Nio warm plume
on the equator this week on
top compared to the cold
water in the La Nia in the fall
of 2010.

Weather Whys
and Climate Wise
storms increase the winds blowing to the east in the sub tropical
Atlantic in the high atmosphere, which disrupt storms that try to form
in the Atlantic tropics.
However, they dont preclude the chances of storms developing
further north and closer to the mainland off the east coast. Bob and
Sandy developed near the Bahamas and strengthened further north
where they created much mischief.
Hurricane Bob developed in mid August in 1991 in the central
Bahamas and quickly reached hurricane status. The eye of
Hurricane Bob passed over Rhode Island and then out to sea south
of Boston. We lost power in much of southern and eastern New
England including here in southern New Hampshire.
Hurricane Bob brought sustained hurricane force winds to coastal
communities of Rhode Island and most of southeast Massachusetts
with many other areas receiving gusts to hurricane force east of the
Connecticut River. Peak wind gusts to 125 mph were recorded on
Cape Cod as well as in Connecticut.
Hurricane Bob caused a storm surge of 12 to 15 feet, as observed
at the head of Buzzards Bay. Cove Road, in Mattapoisett, Mass.,
had 29 of 37 homes destroyed, while Angelica Point, Mass., lost

32 of 35 homes along the shore. Extensive beach erosion occurred


along the shore from Westerly, R.I., eastward. Some south-facing
beach locations on Marthas Vineyard and Nantucket islands lost up
to 50 feet of beach to erosion.
Sandy came ashore in southern New Jersey in late October
2012, bringing 80 mph winds and a roiling wall of seawater as it
moved inland and north toward New York City. It sent 90 mph gusts
through the Wall Street canyons and water surging to a record 13
feet in Lower Manhattan, flooding the subway system and prompting
Consolidated Edison to cut power to part of the area to avoid storm
damage. Manhattans FDR Drive was under water south of 20th
Street.
Water from West Street cascaded like a waterfall into the
Brooklyn Battery Tunnel.

The Holland Tunnel was also said to be flooded. Subway tunnels


and stations flooded Monday evening as water rushed through
Battery Park and other areas.
The 13.88 foot-storm surge at the Battery surpassed the old record
of 11.2 feet in the great hurricane of 1821. That 1821 hurricanes
surge occurred at low tide. The surge in 2012 came at high tide and
with a full moon, which added 5 feet of sea water.
Interestingly, the 1821 hurricane was the last of five tropical
storms to target NYC from 1815 to 1821 during the Dalton solar
minimum, a period similar to the current quiet sun period that began
the last decade during which Irene and Sandy hit in successive years
and now Joaquin threatens again.
In the end we could see a significant storm develop or simply see
Joaquin absorbed by a storm coming from the southwest adding
more moisture and delivering more rains.
In the next stories, we will recount whatever happens this week
and tell you how El Nios and the quiet sun affect our winters. And
yes, we will look ahead to this winter.

Home Improvement Projects Perfect for Fall

Home improvement projects can add


value to a home and do-it-yourselfers
know the sweat-equity that goes into such
projects can give homeowners a greater
sense of pride in their homes. But no two
home improvement projects are the same,
and homeowners should know that certain
projects are best tackled during certain
times of the year.
Fall is a great season to work on your
house, as the weather is often at its most
agreeable once the summer heat has
gone and before winter weather arrives.
The following are a handful of fallfriendly home improvement projects for
homeowners looking to improve their

Take Control of Mold Growth


(MS) -- Moisture buildup can increase the
probability of mold growth. For homeowners,
mold growth can lead to poor indoor air quality
and worse.
Using a modern insulation material, such as
spray foam insulation, in crawl spaces helps
reduce airborne irritants and promotes better
indoor air quality.
Properly insulated crawl spaces control moisture and air seal and save on energy bills while
improving occupant comfort.
The United States Department of Energy
suggests homeowners properly insulate the
crawl space within their homes to protect from
two main problems. Firstly, by maintaining an
acceptable temperature within the crawl space
during winter, homeowners can avoid cold,
uncomfortable floors above. Secondly, removing

excess humidity in crawl spaces during the warmer summer months can decrease the chances of mold growth or
buckling hardwood floors above.
Spray foam insulation, like that available from
innovators like Icynene, can help reduce the likeliInterior & Exterior Top Quality Work

Every autumn, trees and shrubs take on their


brilliant display of reds, oranges, purples, and
yellows that mark the end of the growing season.
Fall foliage may make for ideal photo backdrops
and scenic days in the countryside, but closer to
home leaves may be more of a hindrance than
an aesthetic pleasure.
The hundreds of leaves that adorn the maples,
oaks and other trees near homes will eventually
fall as autumn turns into winter. Some will float
down to lawns, while others will get lodged in
gutters and downspouts, posing problems that
can cause substantial and potentially costly
problems for homeowners.
Homeowners know that gutter cleaning is an
important part of fall home maintenance, but
they may not completely understand why. Gutter
cleaning can be a messy and time-consuming
project, making it a project many homeowners
are apt to put off. Waiting to clean gutters can
lead to considerable problems, so its best to
tackle the job well in advance of the winter.
Gutters guide rainwater and runoff from the
roof so it drains properly away from homes.
When gutters are clogged with leaves, a number
of problems can occur.
Leaks: Water will take the path of least
resistance. When clogged gutters do not allow
the water to drain away properly, water will find
other ways to the ground. It may work itself right
into the walls and ceilings of the home. In addition to damaging walls and ceilings, moisture inside the home can promote mold growth. It also
makes interior spaces more appealing to pests.
Excess weight: Gutters are meant to hold the
weight of traveling water and not much more.
Gutters filled with leaves and other debris can

quickly become heavy. This stresses the entire


gutter system and can cause the gutters to fall off
of the home entirely.
Nesting areas: Clogged gutters can serve as
nesting areas for insects and birds. Mosquitoes
and other insects lay eggs in pooling water.
Gutters can quickly become breeding spots
for harmful pests. Furthermore, birds may nest
in gutters, creating unsightly messes and more
damage. Seeds that sprout in clogged gutters can
grow unchecked.
Ice-damming: Left untreated, pooled
water and leaves in gutters can freeze over.
Blocked water can back up and push against
the roof, lifting shingles and destroying the
roof in the process.
Foundation trouble: Clogged gutters
also may contribute to flooded basements and cracked foundations. Leaking
water will pool around the foundation,
expanding when frozen and causing
cracks in basement and crawlspace
walls. It also can cause driveways
and other cement areas around the
home to sag and crack.
Gutter cleaning should be scheduled in the spring and fall of each
year. Homeowners can hire guttercleaning services to handle the job
or do the job themselves. Rinse the
gutters with water from the hose afterward to ensure good run-off. Take
the time to seal any leaks as well.
This routine maintenance can save
homeowners many headaches and
prevent some very expensive repairs.

Thumbs up to carbon. Remember back in
elementary school when the teacher talked about
plants. How plants need carbon dioxide to stay
alive and they give off oxygen. Well, a single tree
can produce enough oxygen to support several
people. One acre of trees annually consumes
the amount of carbon dioxide equivalent to that
produced by driving an average car for 26,000
miles. I only drive 8,000 miles per year, so you
can have my extra oxygen. That same acre of
trees also produces enough oxygen for 18 people
to breathe for a year. On average, one tree
produces nearly 260 pounds of oxygen each year.
Two mature trees can provide enough oxygen
for a family of four. Without carbon dioxide the
plants and trees will die. Now I know why the
trees are so green and the weeds are everywhere
even during this hot summer! Its Carbon.
Thumbs down to the blue
minivan on Lowell Road on
Tuesday, Sept. 22, who went
around me when I was trying
to let someone out of the
diner parking lot at the lights

missed the kindness lesson in
kindergarten! Next time youre
trying to take a left across two

out! No matter how late you are
theres always time for kindness!

Thumbs up. Regarding the pipeline, if
its passing through your property it will be
underground and you will be receiving a royalty.
Why would you be against it? If its not on your

you be against it? We need diversified energy
for competition in pricing. There are thousands
of miles of above and underground piping in this
country for oil and gas with very little damage.
I dont understand the No Pipeline signs. Why
dont we also take down all of the telephone poles
with the electric power lines and go back to oil
lanterns. I may be wrong, but thats my take.

Thumbs up. We appreciate


that you considered dry conditions and checked
with PD/FD before Labor Day party fireworks
in Litchfield. But, why do you assume parties
must conclude with fireworks? We guarantee
not all neighbors were happy about the loud
bangs. Please understand that the noise disturbed
the peace of others. Noise doesnt stay on your
property and can be heard for miles. Please
consider others so you dont insinuate big booms
into quiet evenings others are trying to enjoy.
Thank you.

boys or girls up for Scouting on Thursday. If you
missed it, for Cub Scouts call Jack at 289-0378.
For Girls call Amanda at 627-4158.
Thumbs up to the person who tossed a full Bud
Light can on Kienia Road. I picked it up for you,
along with the rest of the cans. Would the person
tossing the ziplocks full of cigarette butts carry
them home, please? Im sure your spouse isnt
fooled and knows you are still smoking.

Thumbs up to Leo for his excellent job at


setting up the stage and the podium for Heroin in
Hudson. Many people have worked behind the
scenes to make this a successful event.
Thumbs up to remembering that you should
not put plastic bags in your recycle bin because
they gum up the machines at the recycling plant.
Thumbs up to recycling, which saves us money
in Hudson! Every pound you recycle saves a
pound of trash! (Perhaps you can carry home that
water bottle instead of tossing it on the side of the
road?)
Thumbs up to using the entire outdoors as

butts wherever we want. Lets fill Robinson pond

Thumbs down to the HLN for their most recent


article regarding an Alvirne teacher. They are a
hurting family who is trying to heal and you are
not helping at all. This isnt STAR magazine, find
something better to do with your time.
Thumbs down to whoever keeps complaining
here about Market Basket each week. We get it.
You dont like Market Basket. Enough already.
Thumbs up to pointing out the noise issues at
the gun club. Its 2015 and Litchfield is no longer
a mostly empty, rural farm town. Times change
and your right to make noise ends where my ears
begin. If the gun club wanted to stay isolated,
they should have bought up the adjacent land,
otherwise they should be subject to the same rules
about noise as everyone else.
Thumbs down to Bernie Sanders and all
liberals that base their whole careers on lying
to stupid people. He is a socialist that wants 90
percent income taxes. College isnt free, only
the people that work will pay for the people that
dont. What else is new? Wake up, the more
you vote democrat, the more they are taking
away your entitlements, vets, heroin programs,
social programs, all that money goes to your
bureaucratic administration not you. Wake up!
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. A local daily
newspaper says Panhandling ordinance up for
new vote and hopefully in Hudson too. Talking
with friends, we do not understand the problem
with establishing an ordinance. Simply put:
Require charity groups to acquire a permit for a
minimal cost prior to standing on medians and
soliciting donation. Panhandlers would have to
show that any donations they received would
be subject to IRS regulations. This would not
preclude the firemen from a Boot Drive or
legitimate panhandlers form soliciting. All that
would be needed is proof of IRS compliance, a
guaranty of no traffic restriction, and a minimal
permit cost. Sounds simple - right? Why havent
our elected officials proposed it?
Thumbs down for the very light print in your
newspaper. My eyes are fine, but still have a lot
of difficulty reading as Im sure others do. Id like
to see you darken the print.

Thumbs down to the Bears organization for


not providing yearbooks for the teams this season.
We pay a lot to have our kids play on these
teams; its the least you can do to provide them
with a yearbook of memories. They dont cost
you any more than $5 each especially since you
buy in bulk. First you took away trophies, now
yearbooks. Kids could care less about a paper
certificate... You have lost a lot of good people
already the past few years. The state needs to step
in and get this program back on its feet!

Thank you.
Thumbs down to First Student Bus Company
for bringing all of the sixth graders late to LMS,
and for blowing off parents when we tried
calling to ask questions. You are uncaring and
insensitive.
Thumbs up to all the businesses who got
behind Heroin in Hudson and helped getting the
word out by placing the advertisement on their
business signs. And that is why Hudson is a great
community. Everyone works together for the
betterment of each other.

Thumbs up to JoAnne at the HLN. May all the


success you wish come your way!
Thumbs down to the remaining three Alvirne
High School football captains, you should lead the
team with respect instead of speaking and acting
in a derogatory manner towards your teammates
and peers. These individuals need a lesson in
humility! If you were all so great you probably
would not be 0-3.
Thumbs up to sitting outside with a cup of
coffee and enjoying a gorgeous early Autumn
Saturday morning in Litchfield. Thumbs down to
the non-stop gunshots from the shooting range
that totally ruin it. Its 8:30 a.m. people. This
nonsense has got to stop. What are our town
representatives doing about this?

Residential-Commercial

would have thought to yourself that your robbing
a family with little kids and like most people you stole things we worked hard to get. Did you
ever think that the iPad you stole may have had
family pictures on it of our children being born, or
the time we got our first puppy (yes the one that
barked at you)? Dont worry; karma will get you
in the end. It always does. So to the people of
Hudson who live near Whippoorwill Golf Course
- lock your cars!

Thumbs up to improving the quality of life


for Litchfield residents. When we moved in 15
years ago, noise from the gun range was limited
to rifle shots a few weeks before hunting season,
and was a reminder of how lucky we are to live
in rural NH. In the past three years the noise
HAS increased to be year-round, daily, and nearly
constant blasts from automatic weapons and
house-shaking explosive targets. Membership at
the club has gone up 500 percent in the last few
years. Its not the trees, its the guns.
Thumbs down to the Hudson pet food store
owner who has a display shelf of live fish in
bottles so small they cant even turn around! How
can you pretend to love animals, and pretend to
do whats right for animals, when you keep them
in these conditions? I will never return to your
store, simply because it makes me feel awful to
support this type of blatant animal cruelty!

for the Hudson Lions Club who were out there
diligently last Saturday on the 19th of September
picking up all the trash along Lowell Road. I just
wish theyd get those stick handles for them so
they dont have to constantly bend over all the
time. This hard work is really, really appreciated.

Annual Golf Tournament for CASA


of NH Continues Legacy of Giving
submitted by Carolyn Cote, Director of
Communications, CASA of NH
Friends, family and colleagues of late CASA of
New Hampshire Board Member John Zahr gathered
at Passaconaway Country Club in Litchfield on Sept.
16 for the fifth annual John Zahr Memorial Golf
Tournament. Participants enjoyed a round of golf
for a good cause followed by a barbecue lunch on a
warm and sunny late-summer morning.
Through event sponsorships and team registration
fees, combined with raffle ticket sales and a Red Sox
suite live auction, the tournament raised more than
$30,000 for the John Zahr Memorial Endowment
fund established for CASA following Zahrs sudden
passing in 2010. Since the tournaments inception
in 2011, it has raised more than $170,000 for the
endowment fund.
Zahr was president and CEO of Harvey
Construction and an active member of CASA of New
Hampshires board when he was killed in a bicycle
accident in Ashland. His wife, Marcia, and his
son, John, continue to carry on his legacy as active
members of CASAs Board of Directors.
CASA of New Hampshire is a statewide, nonprofit
organization that recruits, trains and supports
volunteers to advocate in court on behalf of the
states abused and neglected children. CASA strives
to protect every abused childs right to live, learn
and grow in the embrace of a loving family. CASA is
always in need of new volunteer advocates who wish
to have a positive impact on a victimized childs life.
For more information, or to apply as a volunteer, visit
www.casanh.org or call 800-626-0622 to speak with

submitted by Angela Auger, Spirit Coordinator, Hudson-Litchfield Bears
Four weeks ago, 66 NH cheer athletes, ages 11-14, attended tryouts
for the first NH Elite cheer team. Three certified judges scored the
athletes to select two teams made up of 18 athletes, a red team and
a blue team. These athletes participated in jumps, dance, standing
tumbling, running tumbling, and stunting.
The Hudson Litchfield Bears are proud to announce that Molly
OKeefe (red team), Amelia Riley (red team), Julia Alves (blue team),
Gwen Grondin (blue team), Ashley Ladebauche (blue team) and Lillia
Szewczyk (blue team) will be representing Hudson-Litchfield on the
NH Division 14 Elite Team. They will compete at the national event
in December in Florida. Congratulations to all the athletes that were
selected.

Sunday, Sept. 27, the Hudson Litchfield Bears Flag Football team played
against the Nor-Rock Vikings. The team played very well to a 2-2 tie
against the Vikings. Coach Jeff Conrow and his 3-U team were there to
support the young Bears Flag squad. The flag team was ecstatic with the
showing of the 3U team!
The Vikings had the ball first and scored very soon into their possession.
They were a very quick and fast-paced team with good discipline. The
Bears scored on their next possession with a QB sneak by Tegan Moreschi.
Then a defensive battle took place by both teams not giving up any more
points till the next half. The defensive line with three big bodies up front
consisting of Joseph Sperazzo (Austin Weaver) Jacob Bryan (Tyler Boland)
and Chase Noone (Zach Slingerland) held the majority. Stacked up behind
them were Aidan Mulligan (Aiden Bradish), Mason Hernandez (Adam
Willett) with Tegan Moreschi (Gio Pirotta) in the safety. We had some
fantastic flag pulls by Adam Willett and Patrick Weaver.
The second half was just as exciting watching the two teams slug it out.
Not too long into the second the Vikings blasted up the middle to score their
second TD. With a quick pep talk to the young Bears from Coach Richie
Sperazzo and Alex Baldwin, a new spark emitted from the team. With their
game faces on, they marched up the field, and Aiden Mulligan punched
through the Viking defense for a TD to tie it up with time running down.
The Vikings got the ball back for
a victory drive, and were stopped
dead in their tracks by a stellar
Bear defense!
Till next week ...

Coach Richie prepares the next play.

Every
Monday
from midSeptember
until the
end of May,
pickup
volleyball
takes place
at the multipurpose
room at the
Memorial
School.
Yes, they keep score and they shake hands after a set is
complete. On Monday the game started three people on each
team, but by 7 oclock the teams were 5-on-5 with a substitute
waiting to fill in. It is rally scoring with a set going to 26 points.
Some of the players have been playing for 20 years. Casey
LaPlant has been opening the
doors and setting up the net
since 1990. While there wasnt
anyone keeping track of digs,
aces, or kills, the players were
hitting the ball so it banged off
the floor. Dont think of a group
of adults just having fun, but a
group of adults having fun and
wanting to win. They refereed
their own points and made sure
that everyone was ready when
it was time to serve and the
score was announced, but that is
where the socialization stopped.
Play was hard and fast and not
for the faint of heart. There were
some very skilled players there
on Monday night.
Dont look for a group picture
of the crew there on Monday.
As LaPlant put it, Here to play
not to be in the paper. I played
with these folks long enough to
know that.
The pickup group is always
looking for new players. For
more information, email casey@
smbservices.net.

A Long Night for Broncos


and their Fans

Alvirne Girls Soccer Getting Results

by Mike Bourk
The Goffstown Grizzlies put up 350 yards of offense in the first half jumping out to
a 37-0 lead en route to a 51-14 dismantling of Alvirne. The Grizzlies were devastating
both on the ground and in the air. Lightning-fast halfback Connor Bourque amassed
166 yards on just eight carries in the first half while scoring two touchdowns. Goffstown
quarterback Casey Gervais completed eight of 14 passes for 139 yards and two
touchdowns. The Grizzlies scored on six of their seven first-half possessions.
Alvirne senior fullback turned halfback Ethan Rainville was a workhorse for the Broncos
in the first half rushing for 65 very tough yards against a stout Goffstown defense. The
Broncos as a team could only muster 69 total yards on offense in the first half. Alvirne
senior quarterback Danny Brown missed the game after suffering a shoulder injury last
week on the second play from scrimmage against Manchester Central.
On the defensive side defense Bennett Parkinson, Mike Giuffrida and Mason Miller
each had some nice open field tackles in the first half, but the overall tackling wasnt quite
as good as good as their effort first two games where they lost each by a single score.
No doubt about it, youre not going to bring down those (Goffstown) kids with arm
tackles. Weve got to do a better job tackling and holding our blocks longer in order to be
competitive in Division I, said Bronco Head Coach Tim Walsh.
After the game, Coach Walsh had this to say about the teams injuries, I thought would
be a tough game for us. On offense we were missing our starting quarterback, halfback,
and tailback. We were also missing a few guys on defense. Overall I thought Hayden
(Callery) did a decent job filling in at quarterback against Goffstown who is one of the
top teams in the state. Hayden was our JV quarterback last year, and hes improving with
each day of practice.
In the second half one bright spot for the Broncos was junior halfback, Kishon
Chapman. Chapman ran for 120 yards on just nine carries. He also scored both Bronco
touchdowns. Senior Jake Jemmons Emmons had the final score for Alvirne, a two-point
conversion rush.
The next game for Alvirne (0-4) will be Oct. 2 when they host the Bishop Guertin
Cardinals (2-2).

The Lady Broncos finished another successful week
with a win over Manchester Memorial and a tie against
the Warriors of Winnacunnet. The Broncos continued
their four-game road trip at Winnacunnet versus the
Warriors on Tuesday with a 1-1 tie.
There was no scoring in the first half as both teams
fought in the midfield for possession. Both sides had
some chances, but Sammi Giannelli and the Alvirne
defense were able to turn away all the Warrior attacks.
The second half started well with Alvirne breaking the
ice early on a cross from Emily Lizotte and great finish by
Danielle Ross to put the Broncos ahead. The lead was
short lived as the Warriors turned up the pressure and

scored on a rebound off a Giannelli punch and


high corner finish for the tying goal. That was all
the scoring in the game, but Alvirne remained
unbeaten in their last two games.
Next up was Manchester Memorial on Friday.
The Broncos were looking to extend their streak
and finish the week on a high note. They were
able to do just that by defeating Manchester by a
score of 3-0. Alvirne controlled the play for most
of the game with any Crusader attack thwarted
by the Bronco back line of Olivia Bertrand,
Lexi Prescott, Jamie Calvagna and Erin Rosier.
The Broncos spread out the scoring with Kayla
Julianno to Kristen Decost, Tana Tufts to Danielle
Ross and Kristen Decost to Emily Lizotte to close
out the scoring and salt away the victory. This
win pushed
their current
unbeaten
streak to three
games.
The Lady
Broncos tried
to keep the streak alive
against Bishop Guertin
on Monday, their
fourth away game in

row. It was a staunch

The Cougar Den was alive on Friday night as they had a rematch
against Mascenic High School. In the first game of this season the
Ladies from Campbell had traveled to New Ipswich to open against
the Vikings where the Cougars defended Mascenic, three sets to
one. With many of the Cougar fans at the football game, the Vikings
seemed to outnumber the Cougars fans, but based on the noise that
was not true. It should be mentioned that Mascenic is the only team
to win a set against the Lady Cougars, in that opening game. The
7-0 record held by this lineup is only matched in NHIAA Division
3 by Winnisquam who the Cougars wont face until Oct. 15 in
Winnisquam.
In Fridays game, Sophie Scafidi added 25 assists bringing her
career total to 1,022, which, with Val Boucher reaching 500 digs,

was recognized between the second and third sets with both
young ladies receiving a game ball and flowers. Scafidi also had
eight service points with three acres. Boucher had 12 kills and
23 digs in the battle. Gabi Sott recorded five kills and 18 digs,
and Taysia Boyson had 13 service points, five aces and 28 digs.
With her 1,000 assists, Sophie Scafidi is the first Campbell
volleyball player to reach the milestone. What was great about
number 1,000 is that the four seniors that have played together
the longest contributed to the play. Taysia Boyson served the ball.
When it was returned, Val Boucher (500-plus digs) passed it to
Sophie who set Olivia Martinage who killed it. While Sophie is
proud of her accomplishment the goal she is working towards is
a state championship. The Cougars have been close every year.

Cougar Den Comes Alive as Volleyballers Break Records

Varsity Coach Colin Walker and JV Coach Conner Lane with Sophie Scafidi #10,
and Val Boucher #2. Scafidi passed the 1,000 assists plateau,
while Boucher has recorded over 500 digs.
This core group of seniors has only lost five games since their
freshman year with three of those losses coming in the playoffs
On Tuesday, Campbell preserved their undefeated record when
Portsmouth Christian at Dover brought their 4-3 record into
Litchfield. Portsmouth Christian at Dover is only the second team to
win a set from the Cougars. Scoring was 25-21, 25-17, 21-26, 2517. In the action Gabi Sott had 21 kills, with Val Boucher providing
14 service points, three aces and 17 digs. Sophie Scafidi added to
her school record number of assists with 38. Olivia Martinage made
10 kills, and Taysia Boyson eclipsed the 500 career digs mark with
30, making her total 519.
The ladies got on the bus for their next three matches traveling to
Wilton-Lyndeborough on Wednesday, Hillsboro-Deering on Oct. 2
and then to Moultonborough for a match on Oct. 7.

Tough Part of the Seasons Schedule is upon Bronco Volleyball

Bronco Volleyballs record of 4-5 places them
at 12th in a field of 20 schools. Suffering losses
this week to Nashua North (3-2) and undefeated
Merrimack (9-0) and winning over Dover (6-3),

the Ladies are still in the chance for some post


season playoff games.
Nashua North was in Bronco territory last
Wednesday, and went back across the river with
a 3-1 victory. Scoring for the Broncos were Paige

Kezia DeLaCruiz - six kills, seven digs; while
Halie Martineau had 32 assists and three block
assists; and Vivian Susko, 13 digs. Set scores were
19-25, 25-22, 12-25, 22-25.
Last Friday the team took the bus to Dover,
from where they brought home a win in a fiveset contest. The bus trip to Merrimack was not
as successful, as the powerhouse handed the
Broncos a loss in four sets. Bronco Malory

Coronis led the team with 10 kills followed by


Amanda Wetmore - six kills, two blocks and Paige
Simoneau - six kills, 17 digs, and three aces.
Scoring went as follows: 18-25, 20-25, 25-20,

New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic
Association offers competitive bass fishing in
the fall for high school students. The Campbell
Cougars team is made of Sam Munnelly and Mike
Douglas. Going into the final they were 13th in
a field of 36 teams. They reached this plateau
by catching five fish in the last round of fishing.
They had a large mouth bass that weighed 2.0

pounds, and their five fish weighted a total of


8.78 pounds.
The final fishing tournament is being held this
Saturday, Oct. 3 beginning at the Winnisquam
State Boat Launch on Lake Winnisquam. Due to
a scheduling conflict these young fishermen had
to choose between taking the SATs or fishing;
both of these CHS students will be taking the test.
