The Hillsboro-Deering School District, along with other schools across the state, is receiving addition-al Adequacy Aid dollars due to the recently signed compromise State Budget. In Hillsborough, the board has decided not to incor-porate the money into the school budget and instead return the funds to taxpay-ers, which they hope could reduce the tax rate.
At their last meeting, the Board discussed at length the many options and implications for use of the funds, expected to be about half a million dollars. School District counsel Chris Pyles brought three
RSAs which could be ap-plied, one to set up a special trust fund, one to allocate the payment as “unantic-ipated funds,” and the last to call a special meeting for public discussion.
There were more ques-tions than answers, and Superintendent Bob Has-sett said he’s gotten little guidance from the State, even after viewing a recent webinar on the subject.
“I don’t know the an-swers to these things yet,” Superintendent Hassett re-sponded to questions about the process from the board, “and to me that’s very trou-blesome.”
One of the Board’s con-cerns was the timing – the money hasn’t yet arrived and the exact amount is
not known, although Has-sett suggested it could be enough to cover a list of facilities upgrades that are part of the fi ve-year plan, about $580,000. The prob-lem with that, however, is that each project would need, at a minimum, to be started before the new budget begins on July 1, 2020. Upgrading the High School hot water system and installing air condi-tioning for the server room would be part of the list. The board agreed that it was too late to coordinate these projects, and the Fa-cility Director, James Bai-ley, agreed.
“I almost feel like we should return the money this year, and plan for it

The United Church of Christ in Wash-ington has called Rev. Elizabeth “Beth” Simmons as its new Pastor. Rev. Beth be-gan her ministry October 1 and will lead worship at the church’s 10 a.m. Sunday service.
Rev. Beth most recently served as Pas-tor for 5 years at the Community Church of Francestown. Previously, she served as Associate Pastor at the First Church of Christ, UCC, in Longmeadow MA. Rev. Beth was ordained as a Minister with full standing in the United Church of Christ (UCC) in 2010. Rev. Beth received her Masters of Divinity degree from the Union Theological Seminary in New York City and her Bachelor’s degree from Al-fred University in New York State.
“I am passionate about authenticity. Over some time of personal and spiritual growth, I have come to see that the best and most faithful way to reflect God’s glo-ry and light into the world is to be who God has created and called you to be,” said Rev. Beth. “This applies to congregations as well. Living and doing ministry authen-tically requires reflection, self-knowledge,
and vulnerability, and does not exclude opportunities for change and growth.”
The church was established in 1780 and is one of three historical buildings in Washington Center on Route 31.
“We are engaged to witness and par-ticipate in Beth’s ministry and leadership and are excited to welcome her as our first female pastor,” said Church Moderator Donna Anderson.

next year,” Board Member Chris Bober said, which in the end is what the Board voted unanimously to do.
Rich Pelletier warned, “People expect to get a check for a hundred bucks,” which is a very
rough guesstimate of how much savings taxpayers could see in their next bill.
The funds will ar-rive, the Board hopes, in November, and then the Department of Revenue Administration will use
a number of factors, like district revenues, appropri-ations, and state funding, to set the school tax rate, which is reflected in the next tax billing, coming out in November. The in-crease in funding is only for the 2019-20 and 2020-21 budget years.

Today was the day for the new bridge on Route 9 to open, clearing up some of the congestion anyone who has travelled to and from Keene has suffered for many months, but the Department of Trans-
portation (DOT) just an-nounced a delay of anoth-er 3-4 weeks.
The $13 million dol-lar project, slated to wrap up next year, will rebuild two miles of roadway be-tween Sullivan and the Granite Gorge Ski Area.
According to DOT Administrator Mark
Moran, there were huge rocks the size of build-ings that needed to be broken up, and the soil was very dense.
It’s hoped that the bridge will be ready by Thanksgiving and the detour through Sullivan can end.

Weare Fire Rescue re-cently hosted all second grade students at the fire station as part of Fire Pre-vention Week.
During their visit stu-dents got an up close look at a fire engine, learned how to call 911, and the importance of escaping a home fire quickly and making sure everyone knows the “meeting place” outside the home.
“They see a firefighter dressed in turnout gear,” said Fire Chief Robert Vez-ina, “which can be scary for little kids.”
Fire safety education isn’t just for school chil-dren. Teenager, adults, and the elderly are also at risk in fires, making it import-ant for every member of the community to take some time every October during Fire Prevention Week to
make sure they understand how to stay save in case of a fire.
Proclaimed in 1925 by President Calvin Coolidge, Fire Prevention Week is observed each year during the week of October 9th in commemoration of the Great Chicago Fire, which began on October 8, 1871, and caused devastating damage.

To invite a grandparent or grand friend to school always makes for a grand day at Center Woods Ele-mentary School. This year was no exception. Students invited grandparents and special friends to come to school for a visit and lunch.
Some students used
scavenger hunts to help them tour guests to various spots in their classroom, while others conducted in-terviews with their guests for future writing projects, and others showed off the many things they’d learned so far this school year.
Lunch in the cafe was
“bring your own” or buy the school’s pizza lunch. The Weare PTO is a great sponsor of this event pro-viding coffee and snacks for visitors while they wait to meet up with their stu-dents and dessert for all.

New England College Biology Professor Dr. James Newcomb spent all day visiting in every 3rd and 4th-grade classroom on October 16 working collaboratively with the Henniker teachers to support students learning about heredity and classi�cation. Professor Newcomb showed students how to use speci�c characteristics to identify trees and worked in small groups showing students how to organize seashells using color, size, and texture. Henniker third and fourth-grade students now know what ‘Gastropoda’ and ‘bivalve’ mean (two scienti�c terms used to classify seashells). In prior years, Professor Newcomb collaborated with the Henniker teachers when their science standards were comparing plant and animal cells. He would invite the Henniker students into the NEC lab so they could see the di�erence using the College’s microscopes. (Caroline Morono photo)

Ed Raymond, Fire Chief came to the Select-men’s meeting to discuss the new Fire Truck that was voted in at last Town Meet-ing, for a pre-pay figure of $543,000. This quote is for 30 days from now and once the contract is official, the pre-pay needs to be paid in 15 days. This would make the month of June 2020 as the delivery date. A committee was formed and they came up with the same truck the fire depart-ment has now, a Pierce. The only difference being the compartment. This is a rescue and pumper combi-nation.
Once the new truck has arrived, all radios and equipment will be stripped
from the one being retired and traded in for approxi-mately $5,000.
Questions arose if quotes had been request-ed from different vendors to which was answered in the negative The reason no bids were sent out, ac-cording to Raymond, is the whole fire department staff is familiar with the Pierce, the way the pump is set up and the engine has the very same color coding as the truck they are now using plus, Pierce stands behind their equipment. Raymond said those reasons are why he would request a waiver to the bid process.
There is a plan designed in case a catastrophe oc-curred in a community, how would they cope and be able to move forward. This is a plan, Continuity
of Operations Plan (COP) which was formed by Fed-eral and State Agencies and they are pushing for com-munities to join. At this time, after a survey was taken it found only about 10% of New Hampshire communities have a COP. Ed Mical, Emergency
Management Director stated he has a contractor who for Five Thousand ($5,000.00) dollars will do both, the Cop plan and the Emergency Management. Mical advised there is a Grant available for a 50/50 match which he needs to apply for now with funds awarded as they become available. Mical also said there is a Grant line item for Five Thousand ($5,000.00) dollars in the budget which would be reimbursed.

Donna Boucher, Newbury resident came before the Selectmen questioning the trucks, particularly 10 wheelers, using Village Road. Cal Prussman, Highway Administrator, advised Boucher that these are town trucks hauling material for pav-ing South Road. He also commented that this is a Class V road and people cannot be told that they cannot drive on it. Po-lice Chief, Brad Wheeler will look into the usage and speed on the road by having a speed monitor and counter installed for this purpose.
Prussman went on to say they are re-
claiming Birch Grove Road. They are also working on procuring a cost figure to pave Bay Point Road beginning at Bay Point Bridge. Permits have been applied for but have not been received for them to do the necessary work on Bay Point Bridge.
Another concern was brought up by Margo Steeves, resident, is the burning of the brush at the Transfer Station. Joy Nowell, Selectman explained the Depart-ment of Environmental Services (DES) is coming to check this out. Ed Thorson, Chair indicated the DES does not like the burning and the town is looking into chipping and removal instead of burning. Dennis Pavlicek, Town Administrator,

Following up on a re-quest, the Bradford Select-men will be looking into costs related to the instal-lation of a cross walk at the Bradford Kearsarge Ele-mentary School. A concern was also brought up that there should be one at the li-brary. Question of whether a Public Hearing would be required before this can be acted on was brought up.
John Pfeifle, Select-man, will be following up on a cost increase for a 5 year disposal contract with Naughton & Son for ser-vices at the Bradford Trans-fer Station. Lois Kilnapp, Transfer Station Manager questioned if the Revolv-ing Recycling Fund could be used for security which will be checked up on by
Karen Hambleton, Town Administrator.
The latest up-date on the continuation of the Town Hall re-construction/repair is John Belanger’s propos-al to insulate the basement ceiling. Jason Allen, Se-lectman suggested now that the granite facing has been installed on the foundation the backfill should be done. At this time, Road Agent Hall, could get the huge boulders broken up that had been excavated from the basement area when the building was raised up.
Road Agent Steve Hall provided an update of the Highway Department’s work schedule, includ-ing Horizon Engineering, from Littleton reviewing the water run-off problem on Cochran Hill. The se-lectmen were in unanimous agreement to purchase the
2019 salt from Granite State Mineral. It was mentioned by Hall that this budget line item will increase in 2020. Another topic of conversa-tion was the three venders for gravel, each having dif-ferent product mixes. Hall would like to take advan-tage of purchasing small amounts to see which mix would be the most effective product for Bradford roads. All three Selectmen were in full agreement to let Hall use his best judgement as long as it was within bud-get.
Hall advised The Brad-ford Highway Department has just hired a new em-ployee, Rick Churchill who began his new duties on Wednesday, October 15. Churchill, a Bradford resi-dent, will be the new Equip-ment Operator/Mechanic.

At the last Bradford Fire Depart meeting in late September, present Chief, Mark Goldberg stepped down and the whole De-
partment voted unani-mously to replace him with Gary Dion from Newbury as temporary Fire Chief.
Dion previously worked
in other towns, most re-cently in Londonderry and is currently employed as a Paramedic with the New London Hospital.

listed the eighteen names that make up the Commit-tee that will be meeting and discussing the best solution of the brush and leaf problem. He also indi-cated there have been addi-tional quotes to dispose of them, but they shall wait to see what ideas the newly formed committee brings forth for solutions.
It was moved and carried unanimously to spend $4,000 to purchase a storage shed to house salt, snow blower and probably the golf cart used by the Beautification Committee. Judy Hale, resident, asked if this shed would include a ramp for the golf cart to en-
ter and exit on. The funds to be used to pay for the shed will come from the Line Item in the General Government Budget.
A purchase order was approved by the board and signed in the amount of Three Thousand Eighty Eight ($3,088.00) dollars to Granite State Glass to re-place the glass in the meet-ing room door that was broken by a vehicle hitting it. This money will be re-imbursed to the town by the person involved with the breaking of the door.
Brad Wheeler, Police Chief’ advised a cruiser is going to auction and next year they will be looking
to replace a vehicle that has 90,000 miles on it.
On Sunday, October 27, 2019 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. the Town of Newbury Recreation De-partment, is hosting their 3rd Annual Trunk or Treat activities at the Town Of-fice Building from 10 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. Join for a morning of family fun, including games and lots of trunk-or-treating.

Owners and bakers, Allison Ferguson and Jozelyn Cutler, former-ly substitute teachers at the Hillsboro-Deering Elementary School, had always talked about sell-ing baked goods, and last
winter their ideas jelled with support from their husbands – Ed and Curtis respectively – and other family members.
Allison and Jozelyn both pitched into the ren-ovations, using skills they didn’t even know they had, to get the renovation process finished.
“Last year we joked about it,” Allison recalls.
“I worked at the school, and when I had my youngest I had to leave,” said Jozelyn. “And I started baking at home to supplement my in-come.”
Each day their menu varies and they post what will be available the next morning on their Face-book page. So stop by any morning from 7 – 2 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, and 7 – 4 p.m. Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
“We’re getting a feel for what people want,” said Allison.
So let them know what whets your appetite, and don’t forget to stop in for tomorrow’s Grand Open-ing to participate in some raffles and take advantage of sale prices on their mugs and T-shirts.

Auditions for the Children’s Stage Ad-ventures production of “The Sword Called Excalibur” will be held at 3:15 pm, Mon-day, November 11th, at the Antrim Town Hall. Immediately preceding the audition, at 2:00 pm, will be a theatre workshop open to all participants at no additional cost.
Approximately 40 local children, grades kinder-garten through 8th, will be cast to appear in the show with CSA Actor/Educators Johnny Gordon and Heather Cooperman.
The performances will take place at the Antrim Town Hall at 6:30 pm on Friday, November 15th, and at 10:30 am on Satur-day, November 16th.
The play begins as a group of hard working vil-lagers and neighboring for-est creatures hails the ar-rival of the troubadour. The troubadour begins a tale, which magically transports the village back in time. The story comes to life as the young local actors take on the roles of wizards and knights. They will become Sir Ector and his subjects, Mor-gan Le Fay and her scheming partners, young Arthur, young Kay and their trusty dog, Cabal. The play continues with forest creatures teaching Cabal lessons about cu-riosity, Merlin and his apprentice wizards training Arthur to be king, and a group of bandits living in Sherwood Forest show-ing Kay a thing or two about fairness. A tournament and festival carry the story to its end when Arthur draws the sword from the stone and is crowned King.
Children planning to audition should arrive by the scheduled starting time of 3:15 pm and plan to stay for the entire two-hour session. No advanced prepara-tion is necessary to take part in the audi-tions. Children planning to participate in the theatre workshop beforehand should arrive by 2:00 pm.
Rehearsals will be conducted from 3:45 pm to 8:15 pm every day of the week prior to performances. Although not all cast members will be needed at every ses-sion, those auditioning must have a clear
schedule for the entire week, and if select-ed, be able to attend all rehearsals for their role. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the conclusion of the audi-tions. The first rehearsal will begin about 30 minutes after the auditions. A light snack will be provided for the children staying for this first rehearsal.
Cast members scheduled to rehearse for both two-hour sessions on any given day will be asked to bring a sack meal or snack, to be eaten during the half hour break between sessions.
Heather Cooperman, from Columbus, Ohio, and Johnny Gordon, from West-field, Massachusetts, will be this year’s team of Actor/Educators from Children’s Stage Adventures. This is Heather’s and Johnny’s first tour together, though both have extensive backgrounds working with children in theatre.
2019 – ’20 is Children’s Stage Adven-tures twenty-first year touring across the northeast US and Canada, with 70+ resi-dencies scheduled. Based in Sullivan, NH, CSA is a non-profit organization support-ed in part by charitable donations. This coming year, hundreds of cast members will take to the stage, to the delight and ap-plause of their families, friends, communi-ties, neighbors, and teachers.
The residency in Antrim, NH is made possible by the Antrim Recreation Depart-ment. Come out and support the youth of your community while enjoying a great show.

The Lady Hillcats split a pair of games this week, shut-ting out Interlakes 1-0 on Monday and then falling to Bish-op Brady 7-4 on Wednesday.
Interlakes controlled the first half on Monday on their turf field. However H-D picked up their intensity and went after every ball in the second half. Eva LaValley touched a corner kick from Kendra Warren into the goal with less than a minute left for the win.
Grace Atkins had 12 saves in goal backed up by de-fenders Abigail VonDette and Maggie Carter. Kimberly Nadeau and Morgan Racine played well in midfield and Zoe Kemp and Abigail Johnson played well in offense.
Against Bishop Brady Hillsboro-Deering scored 2 goals in the first 5 minutes of the game; Warren (from La-Valley) ripped a shot from about 25 yards out that went in just under the bar. A minute later Racine (from Nadeau) beat the goalie who came way out and took a shot that bounced in. Brady responded with 5 unanswered goals to finish out the half.
In the second half LaValley touched in a great cross from Racine 3 minutes in and when Nadeau got tripped in the box Warren nailed the PK. Each time though Brady matched with one of their own to hold on to the game.
Coach Sue Else praised: “We are so proud of these girls, this team!!! They played their best game so far, the passing and movement off the ball was outstanding. They played with good technique and tactics and amazing heart today. We are proud to be Hillcats.”
Boys SoccerHillsboro-Deering’s Boys Soccer team won 1-0 shut-
out over Monadnock on Monday. The lone goal came on a great shot from Kieren Kenny from about 20 yards out. Logan Clough came up big earning the shutout with seven saves one of which was spectacular.
VolleyballThe Lady Hillcats split a pair of games this week. Last
Friday they got their second victory defeating the Stevens Cardinals 3-1 and then on Wednesday they fell to Masce-nic 3-0.
Football The Hillsboro-Deering-Hopkinton Redhawks football
team lost to Trinity by a score of 36-21 last Saturday in a tight game. The Redhawks were up 14-13 at half-time, and
21-13, after the 3rd quarter. Trinity took advantage of a few mis-tackles to take the lead in the 4th quarter.
Colby Quiet scored 2 touchdowns, and played well on defense. Jack Mor-rall had an excellent game on both sides of the ball, with 59 yards rushing, and a 40 yard fumble recovery touchdown. Dylan Barrett ran for 47 tough yards on 12
carries, and Max Costello did a great job managing the Red-hawks offense, while filling in at QB for injured Michael Oberheim.

Dear Editor;
Recently the state leg-islature was able to pass a compromised state budget in which there was an in-crease to state education aid being sent to many districts around the state. This is wonderful news as many districts have been operating with decreased state aid for many years.
Due to the fact that this aid was sent to districts after budgets were set (at voting day in March of this year), it becomes a tricky situation that many school boards have had to deter-mine what to do with the
additional funding. If we wanted to ac-
cept these funds to use we would need to make quick decisions as we would (1) need to determine WHAT we would want to use these funds for- what did we not account for in our current budget? (2) We would need to move quickly and have a special meeting to ac-cept the state aid. Letting the taxpayers make the final decision with a vote. This would cause a delay with the state setting the tax rate because should the district decide NOT to ac-cept the state aid then these funds would go back to the
towns. It is not clear what this impact would do to our tax bills as the state sets the tax rate; but holding up tax bills was not something we wanted to do especially en-tering the fast approaching holiday season.
This was not an easy decision that the Hill-sboro-Deering School Board (HDSB) takes light-ly. We needed to make sure that whatever decision we made, we were doing what was best for our overall community.

Benjamin David Fauteux Benjamin David Fauteux, 23, of Washington, NH passed away unexpectedly on Friday, October 11, 2019 due to a house fire a week before his 24th birthday. He was born on October 18, 1995 in Nashua NH, to Bon-
nie Fauteux-LaCasse and Dick Fauteux. Ben went to Washington El-ementary and Hillsboro-Deer-ing School District. He worked at Pats Peak as a full-time employee and made snow during the winter months. Benjamin loved his job. He loved working outside in the fresh air, night or day,
rain or snow. Ben was a fun, loving father to his beautiful son Emer-son, who was his greatest joy in life, his little ray of sun-shine. There was nothing more important in his world to him than his “lil fishing buddy.” Benjamin was a family man. He loved with all his be-ing and cherished every moment with his son, family and friends. He could put a smile on your face at any time of day. His laugh could fill the biggest room with smiles. He enjoyed many hobbies, but most of all spending time with those he enjoyed those hobbies with. On his free time he was always outdoors; fishing, kay-aking, hiking or camping. He loved all the seasons we have, even when they’re a bit off. Benjamin was strong, hardworking, loyal, loving, passionate, smart funny the list goes on. He will be so deeply missed by all those he crossed paths with. He was a forgiving brother, a loved son, a caring uncle and an awesome friend. Ben will be missed by many. He leaves behind his mother Bonnie Fauteux-LaCasse, his two older brothers Derek Ellstrom and Caleb Fauteux, his nephew Nicholas Peter Ellstrom, his little sister Emi Lou Fauteux and many, many, many, friends. Service and burial will be held at the convenience of the
family. The Holt-Woodbury Funeral Home & Cremation Service Hillsboro, NH is assisting the family. For more log on to www.holtwoodburyfh.com
Ariel Lynn HillAriel Lynn Hill, 23, of Hillsborough, NH died October
16, 2019 at her home.Ariel was born on May 2, 1996 in Peterborough, NH to
Peter B. Hill, Jr. and Dena M. (O’Brien) Tatro.Ariel (Earl) was a loving,
vivacious, funny, passionate woman who lived fiercely and poured her whole heart into everything she did. Whether it was her love for her fami-ly, the latest way to prank her siblings, her obsession with giraffes, or her determination to be the best mother she could be; she gave her passions her
heart and soul. Her sense of humor and love of silliness leave her family and friends with many great stories and plenty of laughter to bring smiles through the tears of los-ing her.
Ariel’s brilliant smile, (rare though it could be,) would light up your soul when you saw it. Her mischievous look, (seen much more often,) predicted either trouble, fun, or more often both and can frequently be seen when you look at her son.
To all those who are mourning the loss of our beloved girl – when you think of Ariel, celebrate the good mem-ories you have of her. Remember that life can be fragile and short – hug each other, say “I love you” often, forgive each other as soon as you can, and live life to the fullest every day.

Author/Illustrator Irene Buchine will be the featured guest at the Weare Public Library’s Community Coffee on Thursday, November 7, at 10am. Irene brings the chal-lenges of childhood depression into the light through her own personal experience and thoughtful reflection. In Ce-lia and the Little Boy, a young girl faces a bewildering di-lemma when she discovers a little boy hiding in the dark-ness. The author remarks that, “My hope is that this book will open a dialogue between children struggling with de-pression and those who care about them.” From struggling
with dyslexia to raising a child with depression, Irene has known what it is like to be unseen, marginalized and help-less. Irene holds a Master’s in Education and worked in early childhood settings for more than a decade. Her inter-est in art and communication led her to start a successful design and marketing studio. In 2006, Irene began writing memoir and returned to her love of illustration, sparking the creation of Celia and the Little Boy. Books will be available for purchase and signing after the event. Join us for story time for adults and a discussion of this most time-
ly topic. Plus, of course, coffee and refreshments.Community Coffee is a monthly event, help the first
Thursday of each month, that brings together community members and people of interest in an intimate and casual atmosphere. All are welcome. The Weare Public Library is located at 10 Paige Memorial Drive in Weare, NH.

As a kid, I took Halloween seriously. I mean, heck, there was only one day out of the whole year where candy was free and Halloween was it.
Making the most of the night was paramount to sugar success. We had a limited amount of time be-fore our neighbors shut off their porch lights and went to bed so we had to work to be both prudent and prag-matic with our time. I prepared for the holiday with a Type-A approach.
The following information is true. I sort of wish it weren’t.
Back in the day, I started planning our candy ac-quiring route mid-October. I studied the layout of our neighborhood, counted blocks and houses in order to map out the most expedient trick-or-treating course so my friends and I never had to backtrack or cross the street more often than necessary. Any extra steps in our path meant added time and effort. Our goal was be shrewd, systematic and successful in our candy collection. Further, we started at the corner farthest from my house and worked our way inward so that at the end we’d be home. I thought it was ingenious – not to mention efficient.
Thinking back it sort of was. I was a kid before my time.
After returning from our candy procurement we set about the task of sorting. My sister and I spilled our sacks onto separate ends of the living room and began grouping and counting. Seven Kit Kats, 14 Skittles, nine Laffy Taffy, a popcorn ball and so on. Each different type had its own pile on the floor.
When we finished sorting and counting our loot, the trading began. I liked Reese’s, my sister preferred Snickers so we’d make a few swaps to bulk up on our favorites. It goes without saying that during the sort-ing and trading process we both partook in a sam-pling of the merchandise.
At the end of it all it was clearly time for bed but we were sugared up and sleep was elusive. My head hit the pillow and I counted – not sheep but mini can-dy bars waiting for me in my sack.
My sister and I had the same routine every Hal-loween, but the day after Halloween and the days fol-lowing we differed in our approaches to our respec-tive stashes. My sister was a normal child. She ate her candy. She enjoyed it. By mid-November her bag was empty or nearly so. There may be been a couple of packs of Smartees left, but that was it.
I was not a normal child, as can be evidenced by my complex route routine on Halloween night. I’d worked very hard for my sack of candy. I’d planned and schemed for weeks. Every mini bag of M & M’s had been earned with my own blood, sweat and tears.
So I did what any abnormal, Type-A, candy-fo-cused kid would do. I hoarded my goods. I rationed them carefully, nibbled sparingly. I hesitated to open any Reese’s because I was saving the best for last. November passed, as did January and March. Sum-mer came and went and still my bag remained not empty. Of course I made a decent dent and savored the occasional Reese’s, but come the next October I still had candy, and on Halloween I often had to toss out the remnants of the last year’s stash in order to make room for the incoming.
I’m no longer Type-A – on Halloween or any oth-er day of the year. But I miss the planning days of a type-A kid on Halloween. There was a certain joy to it. A controlled joy.
I do enjoy passing out candy on Halloween night. I suppose there’s some sort of control issue wrapped within the bars of chocolate I’m giving out. But I al-ways make sure to give kids (the young ones especial-ly) a hefty handful. After dark, we turn out the lights and I finally experience what I’ve been waiting for all day: the savoring of one last late night-Reese’s.

school year (2019-2020) to our current school budget. We discussed this as a board in great detail, consulted with legal, other communities and the NH School Board As-sociation and we decided that given where we are in the calendar the only items we could even consider pursuing would be capital improvement projects (campus/building improvement) and none of these items are show stopping critical items or items that would impact student safety or learning. The board felt that we would return the funds to the community this year.
The board understands that this decision may or may
not be one that you agree with but we wanted to make sure that the HD community knew that this was not a light hearted decision. We thank you for your support and look forward to you continuing to support our schools. Please feel free to outreach to any of us for questions or concerns.
