What now is known as the Purple Heart began as the Badge of Military Merit, established by George Washington on August 7, 1782. At that time, and for many decades afterwards, there were very few awards that common soldiers would receive in service of their country. Most awards, decorations, and medals were given to great commanders, aristocrats, or kings. Recognizing that the Continental Army was fighting a tough campaign, and that supplies were scarce and pay was low, Washington felt a need to boost his troops’ morale by establishing an award for valor and meritorious service. This established a precedent to award for both heroic actions in combat, and for merit, which is proper performance of military duties not related to combat. Washington presented the Badge of Military Merit, which consisted of a cloth purple heart to be worn over the left breast, to three sergeants in his army. It was re-designed and established as the Purple Heart in 1931 by General Douglas MacArthur. The Town of York continues to honor service members through events like the Memorial Day parade, Veterans Day events and high school programs. The Committee for Veteran Affairs is encouraging the public to attend the event and recognize these veterans who have sacrificed so much for the nation. The committee still needs to get in touch with any area veterans who have received a Purple Heart during their service to inform them of the ceremony and its details.

The TramutoPorter Foundation has announced the second week of September as National Compassionate Leadership Week. National Compassionate Leadership Week celebrates compassionate leaders by bringing attention to the proven benefits of compassionate leadership through use of empathy in action to garner the greatest impact. It shows through their own example that it is possible to be compassionate and deliver strong results at the same time. In fact, leading with compassion produces stronger results whether it be in business, education, politics, in families and communities.Founded in 2001 following the tragic loss of dear friends on September 11, the vision of the foundation has been to take the time to deeply hear the stories of those in need and tune attention to the challenges they face by moving from empathy to action. The foundation has been working on behalf of compassionate causes through programs such as a scholarship fund that supports students who have lived through and risen above adversity, the founding of a workplace dignity program in conjunction with the RFK Human Rights organization, the implementation of programs with the Lwala Community Alliance to address maternal, infant and pediatric mortality, and the collection
“We are excited for a celebration of loons to be this year’s theme. The call of the loon is a quintessential sound of summer for many New England residents, and because they spend time in both freshwater and saltwater habitats during different times of the year, they are species that is a barometer for the overall health of our waters and ecosystems” shares executive director, Kristen Lamb. Attendees will learn about important loon conservation work being conducted by regional state agencies and non-profits including Maine Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, Maine Audubon, Maine Lakes and Tufts Veterinary School Emeritus Mark Pokras.

As a grassroots effort, the Planeteers of Southern Maine is a group of individuals dedicated to helping create a sustainable future for the planet by encouraging action on climate change, clean oceans, and other environmental issues at the local level. “The Planeteers hope many will come through on the 17th to show their support for this initiative. We are hoping to collect 15,000 pounds of clothing during this upcoming drive, surpassing the 7,000 pounds collected last September and 11,000 pounds collected this past April. We are so grateful for the ongoing support received from the town and community. With ever increasing tons of textile goods being produced, we need more than ever to find ways to recycle them,” said Andrea Roth Kimmich, Founding Member of the work and miscellaneous bridge repairs.

The Route 1 On-Ramp project includes repairs to the Route 1 On-Ramp (Ramp H) bridge located at Mile 1.60 on the Maine Turnpike in Kittery.

KENNEBUNKThe Planeteers of Southern Maine, in collaboration with Helpsy, will host a clothing drive on Saturday, September 17, 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. Used clothing, footwear, accessories, and other household textiles will be collected during this event, to be held at the Kennebunk Transfer Station (next to the Treasure Chest), 36 Sea Road in Kennebunk. Collected clothing will be reused or recycled, keeping it Planeteers of Southern Maine. “Helpsy’s mission is to keep clothes out of the trash,” says its co-founder and CEO, Dan Green. “We are dedicated to changing the way people think about, dispose of, and buy second hand clothing in a world where more than 85% of clothes end up in the Accordingtrash.”tothe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, textile waste is the fastest growing waste stream in the United States, occupying nearly 5% of all landfill space. Helpsy is committed to working with grassroots organizations like The Planeteers in order to give clothing its longest life possible. Through its integrated businesses, Helpsy works to reuse, resell, and repurpose the clothing it collects – amounting to 29 million pounds of clothing collected in the last year alone. This is the equivalent to 560 million pounds of CO2 emissions and 14 billion gallons of water used to produce the clothing the first time around. Working to extend the life of clothing is crucial because it reduces the enormous environmental burden brought on by the industry’s production waste. As one of the largest textile collection companies in the U.S., Helpsy is unique in the second hand clothing space because the brand stands strong in its environmental mission: to keep clothes out of the trash by any means possible. Helpsy has multiple outlets to ensure clothing stays out of landfills, with an additional goal to support upcycling, responsible handling of overstock and returns and changing the way the fashion industry thinks of the clothing life cycle. 95% of all clothing, shoes and other textiles can be given a second life. 50% are reusable, 45% are Therecyclable.clothing drive will accept all clean, dry, and bagged clothing, home textiles such as curtains and tablecloths, and fashion accessories such as shoes, boots, wallets, belts, ties, hats, gloves and purses. Please use recycled plastic bags when possible. Torn, worn and/or stained items are also accepted as long as the items are clean and have no odor or mildew. Items not accepted include stuffed animals, pillows, rugs and carpet remnants, underlayments for area rugs, housewares, glass, electronics, furniture, building materials, scrap metal, appliances, mattresses, books or magazines.Organizers request no late or early drop-offs.

It was originally a devastating blow which was exacerbated by his drug and alcohol addiction. After several years of struggling, he was forced to look deeper into himself, at existence, purpose, and spirituality.“Thelossof my vision quite literally made me walk by faith and not by sight, and forced me to reevaluate my life,” he wrote. He is now three years sober and use the time as an opportunity to pause.IGB was created for people from all walks of life to ultimately help each other. The mission for the 501(c)3 nonprofit organization is to seek out and help those in need by utilizing a network of volunteers, sponsors, and contributors, recognizing that everyone is fighting a battle. Petrone and IGB raise funds through the annual walka-thon (renamed the bridge-athon), sponsors, donors, contributors, and through the sale of merchandise (smile.amazon. com, shop-local,www.igotbridged.com/andlocalmarkets).In turn, they provide free transportation to and from Gather Portsmouth via the Bridgemobile, assist in errands and the care of area seniors, gift foster children through the First United Methodist Church, collaborate with Gather Food Pantry, organize a coat drive during the winter, partner with Safe Harbor Recovery Center, deliver care packages to those in need, and provide hair cuts to those in need through the Paul Mitchell School.

He also learned that by helping others, we take the focus off ourselves. He wrote, “My long daily walks have helped me cope by clearing my mind and restoring some sense of freedom. Often, though, I’m stopped in my tracks before crossing Portsmouth’s Memorial Bridge when it lifts for passing boats. I’ve dubbed this experience ‘getting bridged’ which has become a metaphor for the unexpected obstacles life throws at us. But the metaphor doesn’t end there.” He then explained that ‘getting bridged’ doesn’t mean you’re stuck necessarily, but that you can instead

The primary goal of this workshop and others throughout the state is to facilitate discussion around potential regional and local food recycling solutions. As a host community, the DPW is excited to support both York and surrounding towns’ path toward food recycling and composting programs. York DPW is working with the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in collaboration with the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry, and with the University of Maine Mitchell Center for Sustainable Solutions. This is a chance to learn about the most up-to-date information on local food waste recycling initiatives. This half-day workshop will introduce the concept of local consolidated food scrap collection and management as an alternative to disposal in our landfills. Discussions will focus on developing tools to help communities promote “higher and better uses” for collected organics along with providing a pathway for successful initiation of food scrap recovery programs. Strategies learned will allow York and surrounding communities to reduce overall disposal costs, decrease reliance on disposal in landfills, improve community health and enhance local soil health and vitality. Food costs are rising, as well as labor and transportation costs. This means that landfill disposal costs will continue to be one of the largest and fastest growing line items in Maine municipal budgets. The state and local communities are developing proven solutions to significantly reduce food waste and landfill costs. Registration is required.

OGUNQUITCan discrimination exist in an America where everyone is black? That’s among the questions posted by “The Flying Ace” (1926), a rare surviving example of movies produced early in the 20th century for Black audiences in segregated cinemas. The rarely-screened movie will be shown at the historic Leavitt Theatre, 259 Main St, on Wednesday, September 14 at 7 p.m. Live score will be provided by silent film accompanist Jeff Rapsis, a New Hampshire-based performer and composer who specializes in scoring and presenting silent films.“The Flying Ace” was produced by Norman Studios in Jacksonville, Fla., using such theater performers as Laurence Criner, a veteran of Harlem’s prestigious all-Black theater troupe the Lafayette Players, as well as many non-professionals for minor roles. In the film, Criner plays Captain Billy Stokes, a World
War I fighter pilot known as “The Flying Ace” because of his downing of seven enemy aircraft in France. Returning home to resume his former job as a railroad detective, Billy is assigned to locate a stationmaster who has gone missing, along with the $25,000 company payroll. While investigating, Stokes begins romancing the stationmaster’s daughter, Ruth (Kathryn Boyd), causing a rivalry with another suitor which leads to a break in the case. With Ruth’s safety now at risk, Stokes’ dogged pursuit of the suspects leads to a climax highlighted by a dramatic airborne chase which calls upon his piloting prowess. Films such as “The Flying Ace” were shown specifically to African-American audiences in areas of the U.S. where theaters were segregated. Norman Studios was among the nation’s top film production companies making feature length and short films for this market from the 1920s to the 1940s.

Some of his earlier material is still instantly recognizable today. Take, for example this old gem: “Have you lived here all your life?” The answer: “Not yet.” Tim will be performing several traditional favorites, as well as showcasing new material that ties in a bicentennial theme. The state of Maine observed its bicentennial in 2020, in the midst of the pandemic, so Tim’s new material is only now being showcased. His cross-generational appeal is a unique and original style of storytelling and humor, one that stands the test of time with universally recognizable connections and common threads that stretch from the 1850s, to the turn of the century, to the 1950s and 1960s, to the present day. Even as far back as Mark Twain’s public humor performances, Maine audiences have always been known as some of “the toughest in the world.” Or as paraphrased by Tim, “If it isn’t that funny, you just don’t get it.” Or if someone didn’t “get it” during the performance, they may find themselves chuckling some hours later as the point of the story reveals itself. Tim’s performances always guarantee an evening of laughter and enjoyment for all ages. Tim joins in celebrating OPA’s 30th Capriccio anniversary by bringing with him 30 CDs, to be given away to the first 30 advance ticket purchasers. Winners will be selected according to the date purchased, regardless of whether online or in person. These 30 attendees will be given their CDs at the

Called “Maine’s Humorist Laureate,” Tim’s performance style is rooted in “Down East”style humor, which is similar to British humor in that it reflects a philosophical detachment from its subjects. Tim observes from familiar perches – country store, local gas station, porch swing, lobster dock – and speaks in local dialect, representing the many “personas” of Maine.

YORKFor anyone who has ever felt like they don’t belong, author Phuc Tran’s new novel, “Sigh, Gone,” shares an irreverent, funny, and moving tale of displacement and assimilation woven together with poignant themes from beloved works of classic literature. On Thursday, September 15, 7-8 p.m. in the community room at York Public Library, the author will discusses his latest book, sharing his personal story of immigrating to America with his family. In 1975, during the fall of Saigon, Tran immigrates to America along with his family. By sheer chance they land in Carlisle, PA, a small town where the Trans struggle to assimilate into their new life. In this coming-of-age memoir told through the themes of great books such as “The Metamorphosis,” “The Scarlet Letter,” “The Iliad,” and more, Tran navigates the push and pull of finding and accepting himself despite the challenges of immigration, feelings of isolation, and teenage rebellion, all while attempting to meet the rigid expectations set by his immigrant parents.Appealing to fans of coming-of-age memoirs such as “Fresh Off the Boat,” “Running with Scissors,” or tales of assimilation like Viet Thanh Nguyen’s “The Displaced” and “The Refugees,” “Sigh, Gone” explores one man’s bewildering experiences of abuse, racism, and tragedy and reveals redemption and connection in books and the punk rock movement. Against the hairspray-and-synthesizer backdrop of the 1980s, he finds solace and kinship in the wisdom of classic literature. In the subculture of punk rock, Tran finds affirmation and echoes of his disaffection. In his journey for self-discovery, Tran ultimately finds refuge and inspiration in the art that shapes, and ultimately saves, him. Tran has been a high school Latin teacher for more than twenty years while also simultaneously establishing himself as a highly sought-after tattoo artist in the Northeast. Tran graduated from Bard College in 1995 with a BA in Classics, receiving the Callanan Classics Prize. He has taught Latin, Greek, and Sanskrit in New York at the Collegiate School and was an instructor at Brooklyn College’s Summer Latin Institute. Most recently, he taught Latin, Greek, and German at the Waynflete School in Portland. His 2012 TEDx talk, “Grammar, Identity, and the Dark Side of the Subjunctive,” was featured on NPR’s Ted Radio Hour. He has also been an occasional guest on Maine Public Radio, discussing grammar, the Classics and Strunk and White’s legacy. He currently owns Tsunami Tattoo in Portland, where he lives with his family. For more information, visit talk-phuc-tran.brarycalendar.com/event/author-www.yorkpl.li-

KITTERYHaley Art Gallery’s 2022 season’s final exhibit, “The Rhythms Within,” will open on Saturday, September 17 and feature Murmurs of the Mirror series by Carlos Vega, paintings by Tom Glover, and metal sculptures and framed metal art by Chris Newcomb. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, September 17, 3-6 p.m. The exhibit remains on view until November 19. Tom Glover studied with John Laurent for over two decades, after meeting John at the University of New Hampshire. Glover’s work often involves thematic concerns and investigation from his world travels. Currently teaching at Sanctuary Arts in Eliot, he has taught at the University of New Hampshire, lectured at the University of Connecticut in the Fulbright Program to foreign educators and Science Education graduate students, and has been a panelist/lecturer on his own work, John Laurent’s, and the Ogunquit School of Art. His recent work is focused on birds, Fenway Park, Deer Isle, and abstract combinatory paintings which he describes as “concentrations of the piers, docks, flotsam and jetsam one finds along the coast of Maine and New ChrisHampshire.”Newcomb is an artist, author, actor, storyteller, and an avid gardener. He integrates his metal art by creating unique spaces. Plants, metal and steel sculptural elements, and whimsical figures turn ordinary spaces into “otherworld” spaces “to enjoy, to contemplate in, to simply sit and be.” He holds a BFA from East Carolina University and has worked on hand-built clay sculptures and vessels, paintings, foundobject sculpture, cartooning, and has taught Creative Movie Making at the Maine College of Art (MECA). In translating his primitive print images into steel, he says using a plasma cutter “seems like the most natural extension” of his hands and of any tool he’s ever used. Carlos Vega, a Chicano artist who lives between New England and the South of Spain, was raised on the border between Mexico and the U.S., and studied in Paris, New York, and Cambridge, MA. His work captures the hybridity of culture and spirit that is ever-changing in the Latinx community, one shaped and reshaped by places left behind and those to be found. Religion and spiritual belief – in all its manifestations and transgressions – are central to his work considering religion as much image, ritual, and the material, as an abstract belief. Vega works primarily with antique and vintage mirrors in historic frames that may tell their own stories. He further erodes the reflective surface of the mirrors to bring out what he believes the glass has retained of what it has seen. Some will imagine a collage, but he believes he is revealing portions of cultural and personal pasts. Other than existing images, he employs gold and other metal foil, paint, ink (oftentimes using a syringe that breaks through the layers of impressions), and powdered pigment. When not creating art, he teaches Medieval Spanish Literature at Wellesley College.
The gallery is open Thursdays to Saturdays 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is located at 178 Haley Road in Kittery. For more informaiton, call 617-584-2580 or visit www.haleyartgallery.com.

Blaze and Meet York County, a local social media promoter, collaborated on a limited release beer called “Bark Cream Ale” to support AWS.“Mike Nicholas from Meet York County approached us last year and asked us to collaborate on a beer to benefit AWS, and we were thrilled to be a part of it,” explains Chris Paradis, Blaze sales director. “This is our second summer releasing Bark for Woofstock at AWS, and we were blown away by the reception in the community. People were thrilled to have a light Cream Ale that helps all their favorite furry friends. We are looking forward to releasing it more regularly and to continue our support of AWS beyond the summer!”Available for a very limited time, Bark is a straightforward cream ale that is crisp, refreshing, and perfect for the weekend. It is for sale at area retailers and on tap at the brewery in Biddeford.

WEST KENNEBUNKThe Beagles Are Coming! Sunday, September 4 was a day to remember. In conjunction with the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and fellow Maine shelters and rescue groups, the Animal Welfare Society (AWS) of Kennebunk was at the airport on Sunday, September 4, to welcome the very last flight of beagles, part of the 4,000 beagles rescued from Envigo RMS LLC facility in Cumberland, VA, earlier this summer. AWS is honored to be part of such an historic rescue operation and is ready to help open hearts and homes to at least 20 of these dogs. Upon arrival at AWS, each beagle will be examined by a veterinary team and assessed by behavior and training specialists. The dogs will then spend two to three weeks with foster families, learning how amazing it is to be a companion animal. While in foster care, they will be taught the basics – walking on a leash, sleeping in a comfy bed, housetraining, socializing with other pets and people, and much more. It will be a time of

If an employee routinely works with people across multiple departments, it may be best to inform everyone through email, as it can be exhausting to break the news to each colleague individually. It is also okay to keep the diagnosis under wraps. In the latter case, it might still be wise to inform those the employee works with closely each day, as the news can help everybody prepare for increased responsibilities as treatment progresses and working full-time becomes increasingly more difficult. When discussing how to share the news with an HR department, be specific about how much to share, as one may only feel comfortable discussing details of the diagnosis with certain coworkers, such as an immediate supervisor. Be willing to accept help. It is easy for cancer patients to feel like they are suddenly seen as charity cases upon sharing the diagnosis with an employer and colleagues. But offers to help come from a good place, and patients would likely offer to help if the shoe was on the other foot and a colleague revealed a cancer diagnosis. It is all right to reach out to those willing to help when anything is needed if and when a difficult situation arises. In the meantime, thank them for their kindness and prepare to lighten the professional load as treatment begins.Sharing a cancer diagnosis with an employer and professional colleagues can be challenging. Working directly with a supervisor and an HR professional can ensure the process goes smoothly.

STATEWIDEIt is not uncommon for people to experience a range of emotions upon being diagnosed with cancer. Fear, sadness and even confusion are just a few of the feelings people may experience after receiving a cancer diagnosis. Eventually, those emotions tend to settle down, even if the questions about living with cancer are just beginning. Once the initial emotional whirlwind settles, adults recently diagnosed with cancer may start to wonder how to go about their daily lives. That includes what to do about work. Sharing a cancer diagnosis with anyone can be difficult, and some people may be nervous about revealing a diagnosis to their employer. Fears about how employers will react and the ramifications treatment could have on their careers may concern cancer patients. In recognition of that difficulty, the Cancer Treatment Centers of America offer these suggestions about sharing a cancer diagnosis with an employer. Be direct with the boss. The CTCA recommends cancer patients find a private setting to share their diagnosis directly. Supervisors should not have to hear the news through a secondhand source like social media or a coworker. Speaking to a higher-up directly can open lines of communication regarding expectations and how to confront the challenges that could arise down the road.Work with the Human Resources department. Human resources professionals can help cancer patients learn about programs the company may offer and the resources at their disposal as they navigate this sudden change in their lives. HR professionals also can offer insight into how the company has dealt with cancer diagnoses in the past, including information on flexible working arrangements, such as reduced hours or remote working options.Discuss how to share the news. Once the boss and the HR department have been notified, seek their input regarding how to break the news to colleagues.

YORKThe Alzheimer’s Association is inviting Mainers to join the fight to end Alzheimer’s.
The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s is a worldwide event, raising awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research. On walk day, participants honor those affected by Alzheimer’s with the poignant Promise Garden ceremony – a mission-focused experience that signifies solidarity in the fight against the disease. “We encourage people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds to help us take the first step toward a world without Alzheimer’s by joining us for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s,” said Drew Wyman, Executive Director of the Alzheimer’s Association Maine chapter. “This event helps us continue to provide resources and programs for Maine families affected by Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, and fund important research to end this devastating disease.” In 2021, over 300 York County residents joined the Main Beaches Area Walk to End Alzheimer’s, raising over $100,000. Over 200 residents from the Lewiston/Auburn area joined the Lakes and Mountains Area Walk to End Alzheimer’s, raising over $37,000. This year, the two walks have a collective goal of raising more than $150,000. more Maine people than ever are now eligible for financial assistance, which will largely protect them from these higher premiums.Thetax credits limit the maximum contribution that eligible consumers pay to a percentage of their income, helping protect them against premium increases. As a result of the extension of these premium credits, 59,000 Maine residents could save hundreds on health insurance premiums, including 15,000 small business owners and self-employed people who purchase individual coverage. Further, 14,000 additional Maine residents may have health insurance next year than would have it without the new law.

Billy Stokes was a Black male hero who would have never made it onscreen in a Hol lywood movie of the time,” Pugh wrote.Filmed in the Arlington area of Jacksonville, FL, “The Flying Ace” is a unique aviation melodrama in that no airplanes actually leave the ground. The mid-air scenes were filmed in a studio in front of neutral back drops. Although the film may appear crudely made by modern standards, in 2021 the movie was named to the U.S. National Film Registry by the Library of Con gress as being “culturally, histori cally, or aesthetically significant.” Of films produced for Black-only audiences in segregated theaters, very few “Thesurvive.Flying Ace” is unu sual in that it survives complete, and in pristine condition. The film was included in “Pioneers of African American Cinema,” a DVD collection released in 2016 by Kino-Lorber.

In No rman Studios films, the stories often take place in a world without the racial barriers that existed at the time. In “The Flying Ace,” Capt. Stokes is a pilot returning home from serving honorably in World War I – but Blacks were not allowed to fly aircraft in the U.S. military until 1940. In an essay for the San Francisco Silent Film Festival, critic Megan Pugh wrote that Capt. Billy Stokes “... is a model for the ideals of racial uplift, fulfilling aspirations that Black Americans were not yet allowed to achieve. At a time when Hollywood employed white actors in blackface to play shuf fling servants and mammies, the Norman Film Manufacturing Company... hired all-Black casts to play dignified roles. Instead of tackling discrimination head-on in his films, Norman created a kind of segregated dream world where whites – and consequently, racism – didn’t even exist,” Pugh wrote.“While it’s impossible to measure the influence ‘The

Short-term investments vs. long-term investments. A failure to understand the distinction between short-term and long-term investments is responsible for a large portion of consumer unhappiness with investments, according to Kaye. Examples of short-term investments are savings accounts, certificates of deposit, or fixed accounts. “Usually, any place to put money with a guaranteed rate is a shortterm investment,” he says. “This is because the investor does not usually want money to fluctuate in value if it’s needed too soon.” Kaye draws the line between short term and long term at about five years. He puts stocks in the latter investment bracket. “Due to the frequent ups and downs of stock investments, they are usually only a correct investment for the long term,” Kaye says. “Historically, after five years, the market may be up or even, but not significantly down.” Mutual funds. “Some people get mutual funds and individual stocks mixed up,” Kaye says. “The risk can be significantly different. A mutual fund is usually a much safer way to invest than buying only one or two stocks. It is an arrangement in which someone invests in about 100 different stocks all at one time, requiring only one minimal investment. With such a diversified investment, even if one of the companies –and these are large companies – went completely under, you might barely notice the difference in your overall investment. Each company could be only 1 or 2% of total “Knowinginvestment.”thebasicsof investing cannot be accentuated enough,” Kaye says. “An understanding of them is needed to navigate a field fraught with conflicting opinions and advice, and to build a stronger foundation for financial success.” For more info on Bob Kaye visit www.bobkaye.net.TheWeeklySentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by third-party sources. ment field, and those factors can be detrimental to someone trying to plan for retirement.” Kaye explains some key investment terms and how knowing them can help one avoid mistakes in retirement planning: Risk. People sometimes think an investment is risky if its value can go down. But Kaye says that logic may get potential investors in trouble right off the bat. “The stock market, which goes up and down, might be less risky over the long term than a savings account, which never goes down,” Kaye says. The reason? Based on historical averages, the stock market can increase eight times in value over a 20-year period. “A for loans of up to $2 million. Businesses that are approved and continue to meet program terms may be fully forgiven on the loans over a four-year period. The program is now actively accepting applications.

The grant program awarded $145,000, while donors with advised funds at MaineCF contributed an additional $474,000. MaineCF launched the grant program in 2020 and has awarded $914,000 to 24 projects in its first two years. The program focuses specifically on larger land acquisition and conservation easement projects and prioritizes proposals that create or expand access to land and water for underserved people and communities.Organizations that received funding include the Bangor Land Trust, to conserve 7.3 acres of Wabanaki homeland for cultural uses; Kennebec Estuary Land Trust, to acquire 8.2 acres abutting the Sewall Woods Preserve in Bath and extend the Whiskeag Trail system; and Somerset Woods Trustees, to expand Weston Woods & Waters in Madison and provide access to year-round outdoor recreation, sustainable forestry and environmental education. Last year, the Conservation for All grant program awarded 14 grants totaling $121,500. An additional 10 grants totaling $58,886 were made by donors with advised funds at MaineCF. Conservation for All focuses on programs and projects that help create equitable access to the outdoors, clean air and cleanGranteeswater. included Blue Hill Heritage Trust, to create an accessible section of trail on the Hundred Acre Woods trail in Brooklin; Rise and Shine Youth Retreat, to offer art, science and outdoor recreation for Afro-Indigenous people; and White Pine Programs, to build an intergenerational nature education program in partnership with the Kittery Community Center.

Financial literacy in America has long been lacking, spanning generations. It is a well-documented problem that begins with a lack of education on personal finance in youth, extending through the working years, when many workers suddenly find themselves illprepared for retirement. Yet, it’s never too late to address this shortfall of important knowledge, and for those trying to formulate a retirement plan, it starts with grasping some basic investment terms that many people find slippery, according to personal wealth manager Bob Kaye. Bob is the author of “How to Avoid Not Having Enough Money To Live On After Retirement: Making Smarter and Simpler Decisions for Stress-free Retirement.” “In my work with investors who are planning for retirement, I have found there is generally a limited understanding of investment terminology,” Kaye says. “They don’t want to appear unsophisticated, so they will not ask the questions they should“Theask.many types of retirement plans, tax statuses, etc., are complicated, and a simpler approach to learning them is needed. At the same time, there are conflicting theories, opinions and data in the investsavings account might increase only twice its value in the same period,” Kaye says. “That’s a big loss on the potential return for the person who chose the savings account. Often, the definition of risk to most people does not include short-term or long-term loss, which it should.”

From the top of Mt. Agamenticus to the sea, this focus area hosts the greatest diversity of plants and animals in the state, marking the confluence of northern and southern ranges for many sensi tive species. The focus area also includes local drinking water sources for thousands of people across three towns, and encom passes more than 60 miles of trails used for hiking, skiing, hunting, and other recreational activities.Kate Dempsey, executive director of the Nature Conser vancy of Maine, has been work ing with MtA2C since its early days and served as a keynote speaker at the celebration.

KITTERYEarlier this summer, the Kittery School Committee honored employees who retired at the conclusion of the 202122 school year. They are (from left) Laura Messersmith (read ing interventionist), Sandi Mac Dougall (kindergarten teacher), Kathy Eames (kindergarten teacher), and Jeffrey Powell (custodian). All four employees retired from Mitchell Primary School. Together, they have served the Kittery School Dis trict for 109 years. In the Kit tery School District, retirees are honored with a custom chair with 25 years in the District. With 15 years of service in the District, retirees are presented with a custom lamp. The Kit tery School Committee extends its most sincere appreciation to these four retirees. For more information, call Eric F. Waddell, Superintendent of Schools, at 207-475-1334.
Since 2002, the Mt. Aga menticus to the Sea Conser vation Initiative has worked toward a long-term goal of connecting 19,000 acres of con served land in sections of Kit tery, Eliot, York, Ogunquit, Wells and South Berwick that together make up the MtA2C Focus Area. This area encom passes the largest unfragmented coastal forest between the New Jersey Pine Barrens and Acadia National Park and represents the most biologically diverse region in Maine. It boasts more than 60 miles of hiking trails, protects drinking water for three towns and feeds clean water to rivers and popular beaches. To date, more than 15,200 acres have been conserved in the MtA2C FocusTheArea.eight MtA2C partners include: York Land Trust, Great Works Regional Land Trust, Kittery Land Trust, The Nature Conservancy of Maine, Maine Coast Heritage Trust, Wells Na tional Estuarine Research Re serve, Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge, and the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. For more infor mation, email Lisa Linehan, MtA2C Coordinator, at lisa@ kitterylandtrust.org, or visit www.mta2c.org.
“You’ve demonstrated how to be good partners for the long haul,” Dempsey said. “While people often focus on the money we all raise, or the acres we con serve, the hardest work is main taining trusting relationships with each other. Thank you for doing just Whenthat.”established in 2002, MtA2C was one of the first regional conservation col laborations of its kind in New England, with a unique capac ity to leverage the strengths of multiple organizations toward shared objectives. That col laborative approach has paid off. The 5,200 acres protected within the past 20 years repre sent more than 100 smaller-scale transactions that have each required close work with indi vidual landowners. Through deliberate and strategic efforts to protect land with high qual ity wildlife habitat and public access, these efforts have result ed in the permanent protection of popular hiking destinations such as Great Works Regional Land Trust’s Orris Falls Conser vation Area, York Land Trust’s Highland Farm Preserve, and Kittery Land Trust’s Brave Boat Headwaters Preserve. The longterm benefits of this work have become increasingly evident as development pressures have heightened in the region, and as the pandemic has driven record numbers of community mem bers onto trails to seek solace in nature.“By working together, MtA2C and its partners have achieved many great victories for land protection in South ern Maine,” said Lisa Linehan, MtA2C coordinator. “Instead of working in separate silos, we have collaborated and found strength in numbers. We are in credibly grateful for the many individuals that have played a part in our efforts over the past two decades.”Beyondprotecting popular hiking destinations and valu able wildlife habitat, the work of MtA2C also supports Main ers whose livelihoods rely on the land and the sea. In 2003, York Land Trust’s conservation ease ment on Sewall’s Bridge Dock in York marked a first-in-the nation use of an easement to protect a working fishing dock. And in 2012, Kittery Land Trust’s pro tection of the 302-acre Rustle wood Farm preserved the last remaining dairy farm in Kittery. As the coalition members look to the future, they recog nize that land preservation is key to slowing the effects of cli mate change on local, national, and global levels.
Tim Glidden, past presi dent of Maine Coast Heritage Trust, also served as a keynote speaker for the Anniversary event: “The audacity of creat ing a conserved landscape of this scale in York County is stunning. The founders of this effort saw the need. They heard the call. And they acted. If we are to have any hope of con fronting the challenges of our time including climate change, it is only through action at this scale that we have a chance. Our successors will all look back on this moment in another twenty years and be deeply grateful to you for all this and all that you have yet to achieve.”

As my friend Todd Van Beck recently wrote in an article: Flowers are sent to funerals for several reasons. Flowers are a means of expression. It is often difficult for those mourning a death to put feelings into words. Flowers are a visual expression of love, sym pathy, and respect. They are a way of lending support and sharing the burden of grief. In addition to sending flowers to the funeral, there is a growing trend to send flowers to the home of the bereaved after the service. Some people also send flowers to the church in memory of the deceased.

Flowers create a background of warmth and beauty which adds to the dignity and consolation of the service. Those who have attended services where there were no flowers have noted that something was missing – that the funeral was depressing.

There are three points to be stressed, finally, in connection with the tradition of funeral flowers. First, the role of flowers are both symbolic and aesthetic. They add great value to the richness and meaning of the ritual. Second, flowers represent sympathy ex tended to the bereaved. Third, flowers are sent to both the living and the dead. They are sent to the living as comfort and as tokens of respect for the deceased. We, at the JS Pelkey & Son and the Bernier Funeral Homes, hold the value of the work our local florists do in very high regard. We always encourage the families we serve to contact a local florist directly. Certainly there are national floral outlets that can be reached with a simple Google search but, honestly, the quality of these products are often substandard. Simply click the “Send Flowers” tab on our website and you will be directed to our list of trusted florists. Please call us about any questions with which we may help. of Tasker Funeral Service, Inc. 301 Main St., So. Berwick, ME 03908 207-384-2373 Central Ave., Dover, NH 03820
The ceremony deals primarily with intellec tual concepts and doesn’t fully engage the bereaved’s feelings in the patterns of com munity support which are psychologically beneficial. Flowers, however, express the inexpressible – they are symbolic.
The funeral period provides for the expres sion of sorrow. Only through talking about the past can the bereaved person realize the extent of the relationship with the de ceased, and accept the loss and suffering. Only through weeping and talking to good listeners can they release their grief and feelings of guilt and hostility. Experts in grief therapy believe that it can be expressed best through rites, rituals, and ceremonies.
FUNERAL HOME Somersworth, NH
We are often asked by the families we serve, here at JS Pelkey & Son and Bernier Funeral Homes, why certain expressions and traditions exist in the funeral service industry. One of the most often asked ques tions is “Why send flowers to a memorial service or funeral, aren’t they just a waste of money?” Well nothing could be further from the truth.
The funeral meets the bereaved’s need for support. Death throws people into despair and depression by separating them from one who has provided love, companionship, and security. The funeral and customs provide the means by which those close to them can give their support and share their suffering.

conservation community can help these beautiful bird s, and how everyone’s health and well being are directly connected to the health of the environment.
Open House activities will include: Self-guided tours of the Nature Center and Outdoor Ambassador Enclosures; envi ronmental education programs featuring the center’s animal ambassadors and educators; meeting friends from local re gional land trusts and organi zations; demonstrations from biologists and conservationists including loon raft building and monitoring techniques; raffles, food and drink, and the release of rehabilitated wild animals.

Sticking to a daily routine offers endless social, emotional and physical developmental ben efits for kids of all ages. Here’s how to make Back-to-School schedules stick. Seek their input. Kids are more likely to feel engaged if they are involved in creating their schedule, so seek their input on certain details, such as the timing of daily and weekly activities. For example, ask little ones if they would prefer to have quiet time or creative time before lunch. Once every one has settled on the specifics, parents and guardians can use a dry erase board or chalkboard to display the daily schedule. A large calendar displayed promi nently in the kitchen also works for the entire family. Be sure to hang it somewhere everyone can see, and consider including small icons or stickers for each activity to help young children make the connection between the words and their meanings. Sit down for dinner. With schedules flying off in every di rection, a set family mealtime can be hard to maintain. Weeknights can be hectic, so try and set a time for at least one evening where the whole family can eat together and catch up on daily events and ac complishments. Turning meal time into a family activity offers everyone a chance to reconnect, bond and share the best parts of their Tryday. fun tech. Technology can help everyone get on board with daily routines while en couraging them to take on new responsibilities and to care for themselves. Most teens and tweens already have their own lives wrapped up in their own phones, but a smartwatch de signed specifically for small kids features easy-to-use touchscreens and a variety of digital and analog clock faces to help teach time-tell ing skills. Some of these watches may also feature a playful “pet pal” that lets out a friendly bark at the top of the hour. The little ones can even personalize the “pet,” by naming it, “feeding” it, teaching it tricks, or playing in teractive games with it. A smart watch loaded with reminders for brushing teeth, potty time and nap time, can help kids stay on track and teach them healthy habits.Create rituals. Keeping sleep schedules consistent can make falling asleep and waking up easier for everyone. These daily routines can make the day go by much more smooth ly. Try singing a wake-up song each morning to get small kids moving. At night, make it a daily habit to read a book together. Slow down. While routines are essential, it’s all too easy to become overly programmed. Be sure every single day includes free, unstructured offline time where kids can play, imagine create, or just “chill out” for a few. A regular schedule can make for happier kids and a calmer household. Using a com bination of positive reinforce ment and tech tools can help kids enthusiastically take the reins of their own Articleroutine.provided courtesy of StatePoint Media.
