call our community home. Lately, we have been let down by these industries. We all remember the promises that the federal prison project made. They were going to hire local New Hampshire people to build their facility. I was lucky enough to get in on a relatively small portion of that project, but what I saw there shocked me. With so many of my friends, neighbors and fellow ironworkers out of work, I could not believe the amount of out of state workers brought in to build that prison. I saw folks from Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, Vermont, North Carolina, Virginia, Arizona, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Georgia, South Carolina, New Brunswick and probably many others. I am sick of being walked on by these out of state contractors. If New Hampshire is where they want

be blessed with the singing of The Praise Team form the Community Bible Church in Berlin. This is a family event so bring the family for part or the whole day. Since 1856 Milan Community United Methodist Church, an historical evangelical church, proclaims the Crucifixion, Resurrection and Coming Again of Jesus Christ as “The Way the Truth and the Life”. If you have any questions regarding the church or event please call pastor Bill Simpson (Senior Pastor) or Pastor Janet Young (Pastor of Family Ministries) at (603) 4493344. to build, then it should be New Hampshire people hired to do the work. RMT’s claim that the wind turbine project requires specialty workers is a cop out. We have the skilled workforce to erect those turbines. In fact we have over 250 ironworkers who have completed three year apprenticeships that cover every specialized aspect of wind turbine erection. The Lempster wind farm and the turbine at the Grand Mountain View Resort were both erected without incident by local workers. If RMT doesn’t think we’re good enough to work for them, maybe we should ask if they are good enough to be here. Let’s not allow what happened at the prison to ever happen again. RMT and Brookfield Renewable Power, this isn’t how we treat our neighbors in New Hampshire. William McCullough Stark
