How Full is Your Life?
By Joyce Beairsto


Children from the Sunday School of the Congregational Church of North Barnstead (UCC) will share their thoughts about a full life on Children’s Sunday, June 6th at 10 A.M.


Using this as a theme, the children will review the important things we need to fill our lives such as humor, patience and faith. Scripture readings and sharings by the children with Barbara LeGrow will help the congregation understand how they feel about “what things we should fill our life up with.”


The Children’s choir and the “teen band” will perform.  The “band” will play: “Until the World” by the Afters and “ Be My Escape” by Relient K.


The Church is at 504 North Barnstead Rd. Come and learn from the children.

 


 

State Issues Cyanobacteria Warning For Locke Lake, Barnstead


An elevated cyanobacteria cell concentration has been measured in Locke Lake, Barnstead. Samples revealed that the state standard of 50% or greater of the total cells from the bloom were identified as the cyanobacteria Anabaena circinalis. As a result, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) has issued a cyanobacteria warning for those who recreate on Locke Lake. This warning is not based on a toxin evaluation and is intended as a precautionary measure for short term exposure. DES advises lake users to avoid contact with the water in areas experiencing elevated cyanobacteria cell conditions typically where lake water has a surface scum or blue-green flecks. DES also advises pet owners to keep their pets out of any waters that have a surface scum or blue-green or bright green flecks.

 
Lake users should be on the lookout for cyanobacteria surface scums. Recent sightings report congregations of the blue-green scum on the lake’s edge.


DES routinely monitors public beaches and public waters of the state for cyanobacteria. DES monitors public waters issued cyanobacteria warnings on a weekly basis until the cyanobacteria standards are again met. Cyanobacteria are natural components of water bodies worldwide, but blooms and surface scums may form when excess phosphorus is available to the water. Some cyanobacteria produce toxins that are stored within the cells but released upon cell death. Toxins can cause both acute and chronic health effects ranging in severity from skin and mucous membrane irritations, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea to liver and central nervous system damage for humans and animals.


The May 25, 2010, warning will remain in effect until additional samples reveal cyanobacteria levels have diminished.


Visit the DES Beach Program website at:

 http://des.nh.gov/organization/divisions/water/wmb/beaches/index.htm for photos and more information about cyanobacteria. Updates on advisories and warnings may be obtained at http://www2.des.state.nh.us/Advisories/Beaches/.


If you notice anything resembling cyanobacteria, please refrain from wading, swimming, or drinking the water. Keep all pets out of the water and contact DES immediately. Please call DES to report a cyanobacteria bloom at (603)419-922.
