Free Clothing Swap
In an effort to help manage the cost of clothing for our community
families, the Epsom Bible Church will be holding a free clothing
swap on Saturday, October 4th, from 9-12 noon at 398 Black Hall Road
in Epsom.
You may bring donated clothing beginning at 8:30 am. All clothes
need to be clean and in good repair, and separated by size and
gender. Both adult and children’s clothing are accepted. Clothing
will begin to be sorted for donation bins at 11:30, so please come
early.
Clothes will be sorted and distributed to tables by the person
dropping them off. Once clothes have been sorted and distributed,
you are free to begin gathering clothing in the sizes you need. You
do not need to make a clothing donation in order to take clothing
for you and your family.
Any clothing left at the end of the swap will be delivered to a
local charity drop off site. Volunteers for the clothing swap are
appreciated. Clothing will begin to be sorted for donation bins at
11:30, so please come early.
We will have coffee and donuts.
Call Joanne Randall at 344-8843 for more information or if you are
interested in volunteering.
Epsom Food Pantry
Well we have had another busy week. But before I write about that I
want to rectify a mistake I have made on a name. The name is Wendy
Kitson not Kitchen and she has been just wonderful about getting us
freezers and I am sorry but it seems in my later years(now) my
hearing isn’t all it should be so when chatting with me speak just a
little louder. Now on to the good stuff. Wendy got us a second
freezer so we are in great shape that way. Also our friends from the
Lions Club have donated 50 pounds of potatoes and our next order
from the Elks comes Thursday. We are just so fortunate.. to have
such generous supporters of the Pantry. Now Liz told me that when
doing up the paperwork for reporting that we provided 1400 meals in
the month of July to our members. And the fresh veggies are coming
in so that gives us some nice treats for members who do not have a
garden. This is also our month for the USDA shipment so we should
have a nice full Pantry. Again many thanks to Ken and Liz for all
they do and to all our wonderful volunteers.
Until next time,
Priscilla
Letter
Thank You
This morning, I dropped off a few herbs and veggies from my gardens
for the Epsom Food Pantry. Volunteer Kenny Brown showed me around
our new community Pantry. I was so impressed. It is organized,
clean, well stocked (including lots of fresh fruits/meats/veggies
and personal items). I hope all residents are proud of this resource
and feel more secure in the fact that it is available to any
resident who may, some day, be in need of good nutrition.
On behalf of all Epsonians, I want to thank all the volunteers who
work at our Pantry. A special “thank you” to Priscilla Thompson
whose persistent hard work made ours, a great Food Pantry.

Let’s continue the quick guide to the Republican primary with our US
House race. The two main candidates are Marilinda Garcia and Gary
Lambert, with Jim Lawrence also serious but not getting much
traction.
Marilinda Garcia is a four-term State Representative from Salem. She
co-chaired the House Republican Alliance (the conservative caucus)
with me last session, and also served with me on the finance
committee. She has an exemplary voting record and prime sponsored
several significant bills to bring competition and transparency to
healthcare costs in New Hampshire. For example, she sponsored the
bill to sunset the Certificate of Need board, a bureaucratic
roadblock which protects hospitals from competition. Despite her
youth, she has won numerous awards and accolades, and has earned
three degrees including a master’s from Harvard.
Gary Lambert is an attorney and retired marine colonel. He served
one term in the state senate and did not run for reelection. During
that term he only prime sponsored four bills, the most significant
of which dealt with certification of dental hygenists. His voting
record was spotty. He was the deciding vote to retain the Regional
Greenhouse Gas Initiative, a tax on electricity used to fund a hefty
bureaucracy and energy efficiency projects for both government and
commercial users.
Jim Lawrence is a former three-term State Representative who has
been out of office for six years. He does consulting for the Dept.
of Defense and had a good voting record. I’ve not met him.
Marilinda is the easy choice for me. Like Carol she has the sense to
sponsor bills that can pass while moving in the direction of less
regulation and increased competition. Gary just seems to be running
on his military service record, not his legislative record.
