Why It Matters

Stay Connected at the Gilmanton Year-Round Library

 

We all know that seniors can often live in isolation – this is especially true in the winter months.  Happily, the Gilmanton Year-Round Library recognizes this and ensures that the Library has plenty to keep senior citizens connected and engaged.  In today’s world it is helpful to seniors to have access to family and friends who may live a distance away. The Library has Internet access so people can stay connected.  The Library also offers ancestry.com, a popular program for many adults. The librarian is available to offer assistance to those who may need to learn some aspects of computers.

 

On the fourth Monday of each month, a movie is shown at 1: OO pm. It is a great opportunity to enjoy a new movie or an old classic with neighbors and friends right here in town.  A weekly craft group meets on Tuesday afternoons. Bring your most recent project to work on and share ideas with other crafters. Other programs are held throughout the year – just call the Library at 364-2400, go to the website www.gyrla.org or receive the monthly e-newsletter to keep informed of upcoming events. 

 

Stop by the Library to read the newspaper, check out a new book or movie, or chat with neighbors. It is the library’s goal to offer programming and services to meet the needs of all our community members. If there is a program or activity you would like to have available, contact the Library – new ideas are always welcome.

Supporting Karen Testerman for US Senate

 

I am supporting Karen Testerman for the office of US Senate to replace Jeanne Shaheen. After getting to know Karen, I have discovered that she shares the same values that I do. I am pro-family, pro-constitution, and believe in less government intrusion in our lives. The most outstanding thing I discovered about Karen Testerman is her integrity: she means what she says and says what she means. I can be assured that I will not get the lip-service I presently receive from Jeanne Shaheen. Karen certainly won’t vote against my values, and then run into hiding as Jeanne Shaheen has done.

 

Karen believes that healthcare is between a patient and the doctor, and would work to dismantle Obamacare.  Like me, Karen believes in a strong military to protect the American people, as the US Constitution so plainly defines as the responsibility of the federal government.

 

Not only is Karen in favor of correcting the failed policy of Obama on the economy, she is also in favor of producing good, solid jobs through energy.

 

Common Core is an educational disaster and nightmare, and Karen would fight to remove the “dumbing-down” of our children. She, like me, believes that the right to defend our freedoms with firearms is a citizen’s right, not a privilege granted by the federal government.

 

Jeanne Shaheen has been an Obama puppet. There is no other Republican candidate I can see in the race that will stand up and fight for us, our state, and our nation as I believe Karen will.

 

Please join with me in making a solid change for New Hampshire by voting for Karen Testerman for US Senate.

Gilmanton Fire Department Receives Defibrillators From Gilmanton Fire Association

Chief Hempel (L) receiving defibrillators from

Association President, Lt. Dennis Comeau.

 

On January 15, 2014, Association President Lieutenant Dennis Comeau presented two defibrillators to Chief Paul “Joe” Hempel of the Gilmanton Fire Department.

 

The defibrillators, which were purchased by the Association for the department and will go on one of our engines and our forestry unit. The funds were raised by our fundraisers, which include the collection of monies from NASCAR race fans.

 

“People have been very generous to us over the years” said Dennis Comeau, “we exist to give back to the Town of Gilmanton and the Gilmanton Fire Department. These funds were raised and earmarked for the purchase of equipment that would benefit both the department and the community as well.”

 

Chief Hempel said that the equipment was a great gift and they have already been mounted in the trucks. “Anything that we can get to help us do our jobs helps us tremendously.

 

The fact that these expensive machines are donated makes it even better. The members of the Association give a lot to the Town and the Department and a lot of what they do goes unnoticed. The equipment that the Association buys or donations that they give, comes strictly from monies raised through donations and not tax money.

 

The Association is made up of firefighters and medical personnel of the Gilmanton Fire Department.

Gilmanton Landowners,  

Effective January 1, 2014 a foundation only permit is available.  A public hearing was held on December 2,2013  and the Board of Selectmen approved it.  The fee is $100.00 and covers inspections and administrative costs.

 

By offering a foundation only permit a landowner can excavate and install an approved septic system before framing begins. Prior to building a home the foundation will be inspected for integrity. Should you decided to go this route, please remember that exposed ground can produce a lot of frost... and frost can damage a poorly drained foundation. Speak to your excavating contractor for advice. With the foundation in place an operational inspection can be made by the State of New Hampshire environmental services. A septic design is only valid for four years.

 

Brought to the Selectmen by Selectmen Brett Currier, we all thought it was a great idea. Get a start on the earthwork before mud season. 

 

Sincerely,

Don Guarino
