‘It seemed like an eternity’

Life more meaningful after tornado scare

By Dawn De Busk Staff Writer Pete and Martha St. Jean were huddled with their dog in the tiny bathroom of their cottage while a tornado’s path pummeled their summertime paradise.

Moments earlier, “as the rain picked up in intensity, we proceeded to close the windows and sliding door,” Pete said.

As she glanced out the slider, Martha watched a large pine tree fall on the lake side — just a few feet from their A-frame cottage.

Meanwhile, Pete saw only the dark shadow of it. The glass of the slider seemed like it might shatter so they hurriedly took refuge in the bathroom, he said.

The tornado happened so quickly that the couple didn’t really have time to think about whether they would live or not. They heard the booming sound of another THANKFUL TO BE ALIVE — Pete and Martha St. Jean, of Hampton, N.H., stand in tree — an old oak as it came front of their summer cottage that was in the path of a tornado on Saturday. crashing down on their front (De Busk Photo) porch.

Lakes Region Explorer expands to Saturday

By Dawn De Busk Staff Writer NAPLES — A familiar sight along Route 302 from Windham to Bridgton and all the areas in between, the Lakes Region Explorer is now on the road on Saturday.

As of July 1, the regional bus service added Saturday to its weekday schedule, according to the Regional Transportation Program (RTP) Director Jack Deberadinis.

“We are starting a Saturday

service,” Deberadinis said.

Prior to July 1, the bus service was offered only Monday through Friday.

The bus goes into Portland, where people can use their transfer ticket to ride any of the Portland lines. RTP

established the bus service in 2014.

“We have placards in the bus that give the times of the Saturday service. We think that is an important part of the service and it will generate more riders,”

Foe to friend: WWII POWs worked on farms

By Dawn De Busk Staff Writer HARRISON — As a teenager, Hank Lunn did not save his spare change for candy sticks or gum or soda pop.

Instead, he sacrificed those little luxuries and saved up his money to buy war bonds.

“We changed from playing war to being in war. We saved our money for war stamps —– no nickels for soda pop,” Lunn said.

Hank Lunn was 13 years old when he and his family’s Sunday night dinner was interrupted with the radio broadcast that the Japanese military had bombed Pearl Harbor.

Prior to Dec. 7, 1941, Lunn — like most Americans — had learned to have a dislike for the Japanese and also the Nazis, the Germans.

“We were propagandized. We knew all about the Japs,” he said, apologizing to the audience if they were offended by that word.

The images of the Japanese depicted them with slanty eyes, buck teeth and bowl-cut hair, he said.

Additionally, the cartoons of the

Japanese military showed them holding up their weapons with “babies at the end of the bayonets.” Similar caricatures showed the German Nazis having speared babies with their bayonets, Lunn said. The neighboring farmer, who frequently came over to visit Lunn’s family, referred to the enemies as GD Stalin, GD Hitler, GD Axis. Those were conversations Lunn heard around the dinner table. He mimicked the adults’ sentiments, understood their hate of the enemy overseas. Hating Japan and Germany was an American attitude even before Pearl Harbor was attacked.

“So, when it came time to support the war effort, we were hot to go,” he said.

Lunn gave a presentation called “WWII Prisoners of War: From Foe to Friend” at the Harrison Village Library on June 28. More than 80 people showed up and were seated for the midweek afternoon discussion.

Deberadinis said.

“We had 8,800 boarding this year. We can expect 10,000 or more, especially with the Saturday service,” he said. “It is building and we will get to where we need to be.”

For some people in the communities along the bus route, there was some con-

cern about the status of the bus. That was after Naples nixed the bus budget during the annual town meeting in early June. Some people wondered if the bus would no longer stop in Naples.

Some folks would be surprised to hear that the Lakes Region Explorer is expandBUS, Page 6A

Withdrawal: A matter of control?

By Wayne E. Rivet Staff Writer SEBAGO — When (or if) Sebago residents consider whether to withdraw from SAD 61 and start their own school system, Dr. Mark Eastman says the main question will be, do taxpayers want local control.

The if is whether Maine’s Department of Education approves of the withdrawal agreement that now sits on the commissioner’s desk in Augusta.

If the commissioner

approves the agreement, the next step will be a public hearing.

The agreement was sent to Augusta on June 19. Dr. Eastman, who is serving as the Withdrawal Committee’s consultant, told about a dozen residents attending a recent committee meeting that it is unlikely it will take the full 60 days.

“We are hoping for a clean return,” Eastman said.

“The language is fairly standard.

Surprise tornado, storm wallops area

(Continued from Page 1A) The sights and sounds of the tornado were so intense it has been hard to shake it from their minds.

“It was our first and last tornado, hopefully,” Pete said.

The tornado that tore through the Bridgton Marina campground around 6:15 p.m. on Saturday was one of four confirmed by the National Weather Service (NWS). Some say that seven tornados touched ground in Maine on the first day of the seventh month. But, according to NWS, only four were officially verified.

The NWS’s summary of the July 1 tornadoes in Maine indicates that one was spotted on Sebago Lake at 2:25 p.m.

The tornado on Big Sebago had a wind speed of 65 to 75 miles per hour; its path was 50 yards wide by 1.9 miles long, the NWS said.

The second confirmed tornado touched ground around 4:40 p.m. at Moose Pond in Western Bridgton. At that point, the wind speed of the tornado had increased to

100 mph, and its path had expanded to 250 yards wide by two miles long. The damage, which included downed utility poles and lines, caused the closure of Route 302.

“Meteorologists surveyed several areas of damage along a path beginning at the Shawnee Peak ski resort extending northeast across Moose Pond, including the causeway on U.S. Route 302.

The damage was found to be consistent with a tornado and is accompanied by earlier received reports of a rain-wrapped tornado crossing Route 302 at the Moose Pond causeway,” the NWS website said.

The tornado made contact with Maine earth about two hours later in Denmark.

Again, the NWS confirmed it was a tornado.

“Meteorologists surveyed damage along the southwestern shore of Moose Pond in Denmark. Dozens of trees were snapped or uprooted in a path crossing Mountain Road and extending into Moose Pond. Damaged trees fell onto at least one vehicle,

multiple cabins, and at least one boat and nearby dock, causing substantial structural damage,” the website said.

Around dinnertime the tornado hit two more lakeside areas and was confirmed

by NWS meteorologists, who discovered “extensive damage resulting from a tornado that formed over the southeast portion of Highland Lake.

The tornado moved onshore, snapping and uprooting several large trees, some of which fell onto structures and vehicles. There was a report of one minor injury due to a person being cut by glass.”

“The tornado appears to have briefly lifted before setting back down on the west shore of Long Lake in the vicinity of Obelazy Lane, where a campground was particularly hard hit. This area received extensive damage resulting from numerous large soft and hardwood trees falling onto cars, A-frame buildings and camping vehicles,” according to the NWS. “Despite the widespread damage, no injuries were reported in this area.”

“This tornado was rated a BUSY DAY for tree service personnel as they cleared away debris in the aftermath of Saturday’s tornado high end EF1 with winds up action.

(Photo by Alexa Baumgardner) to 110 mph. This was based on large hardwood and softwood trees being snapped at

the base of the trees. Some trees were [more than] two feet in diameter,” the NWS stated.

At the Bridgton Marina campground, there was a strong sense of community that arose out of the poststorm chaos and destruction.

Additionally, those summer residents — all of whom survived the storm without bodily injury — experienced a newfound fondness for life, for being alive.

“All of a sudden, I am appreciative of each day,” Pete said.

“I feel lucky. I feel fortunate for friends — that they weren’t hurt worse. There were no fatalities. We were lucky,” Martha said.

“Some of the trailers were crushed but the people weren’t there. The couple who was inside [their home] when the tree came down on it, they weren’t hurt,” she said.

The St. Jeans commented on the coming together of the people who survived the path of the tornado. They also praised the first responders who checked on everyone’s welfare and coordinated the evacuation.

“Now, there is more of a sense of community. The people with less damage to their camps up on the hill have helped us remove trees.

CANOE WRAPPED AROUND a tree reveals the devastation a tornado can do. Usually, such scenes happen in the Midwest but on Saturday, four confirmed tornadoes touched down in Maine.

(De Busk Photo) certified emergency shelter at the Stevens Brook Elementary School — mostly because they had a pet.

Instead, the St. Jeans drove the two-plus hours back home to Hampton, N.H. Martha said she simply wanted to be in her own home, where she felt safe, comfortable and there was electricity and running water.

“We had to evacuate because the weather was questionable,” Pete said, later adding “the final insult” was a torrential but short-lived downpour as they drove across the Naples Causeway.

“We were able to get out of here and put it all behind us,” Pete said, adding it was difficult to sleep at night.

“We kept playing over and over the event in our heads.”

“We kept remembering the sights and sounds of the tornado,” Martha said. “And just realizing how fortunate we are.”

On Monday afternoon, Pete was still surveying the damage in their front yard.

One flower planter was intact; another had been ripped from the exterior wall and landed right side up.

Inside the cottage, carpenter ants scrambled across the floor — having been displaced from the colony that had lived in the tree that now lay across the porch. “We didn’t have ants before,” he said, stomping on the insect as it headed into the bathroom, where 48 hours earlier the couple had endured the tornado.

On the beach, the campground owner and manager Rusty Parent was saddled with way more maintenance than usual. He said sections of the campground are still open. In fact, there are 65 fully-functioning sites and only 16 are no longer inhabitable without some work.

“It’s a mess over there.

I just got a quote from a logging company and you wouldn’t believe it,” he said.

His truck was still pinned under branches and he hadn’t had time to rescue it. But that’s not a big deal because “it’s a 2003 GMC with 100,000 miles on it,” he said.

“I am more concerned about the land. I’ve been here since I was baby. I look around” and get emotional, he said.

“I hate to lose these trees,” he said, adding that the one nearest him was about 150-years-old, based on the number of rings.

The tornado was still wrapped around his brain, he said, and he was operating on maybe one hour of sleep a night since Saturday.

“I was in the middle of it.

My body felt it. It wrapped around me, the pressure, it was like it took the breath out of me,” Parent said.

By Dawn De Busk Staff Writer NAPLES — It wouldn’t be the first time a senior citizen stood before Naples selectmen and asked for a better way to sign up for recreation department trips than doing it online.

Bob Hennick, 81, said he learned about an upcoming Senior Trip to Cabbage Island at the Senior Lunch held at the Casco Community Center. The Senior Trips Program is shared by both the Naples and Casco recreation departments; people from both communities participate frequently in the senior trips.

But, according to Hennick, the Casco Recreation Department is much better at getting the word out and allows for in-person, onpaper registrations for senior citizens.

He asked if the Town of Naples could do the same thing. Plus, he asked if someone could display upcoming events on a bulletin board

so that people could find out about it.

Signing up online is a hassle, he said. He could not even get the registration form to print out.

The biggest drawback is that he has to provide his credit card number, Hennick said. Paying to participate in the senior trip is something he would rather do at the Town Hall.

“Can’t we just make the registrations simple,” Hennick said.

About three of four years ago, the town started using Blue Sombrero as the program to accept payments for Recreation Department sports leagues and other offerings, Selectman Bob Caron II said.

Naples Town Manager Ephrem Paraschak said, “As far as online registration, if someone comes in in person, we allow them to fill out a registration form” and pay for it at the front desk. He did add the process was more PAPER Page 7A

(Continued from Page 2A) with a group of friends — labored to remove the trees from the parked vehicle of a person who hadn’t arrived for the summer yet. All around, people joined forces to battle the damage.

“The road was impassable” on Monday morning, Pete said. Central Maine Power “did a great job. They cleared the road by the afternoon. A lot has transpired over the last 36 hours.”

Sometime after the tornado had passed on Saturday and after Pete and Martha had emerged from the bathroom, they tried to get out of their home but a fallen tree was blocking the door.

They did not hear their neighbors screaming if they were alright. From the neighbors’ perspective, the tree had crushed the home.

Finally, the St. Jeans exited from the sliding glass door, climbing over trees that once stood vertical. Pete walked over to his vehicle.

A tree trunk hung horizontally above it and, luckily, the weight of the tree was supported by another truck in the guest parking spot.

“The pickup that got crushed saved three cars,” Pete said.

Pete retrieved a power saw but the battery-pack was dead. For some reason, he had parked his Pathfinder nose out, he said. His SUV needed to be moved before the other cars could come out. He gave up on cutting away the branches and drove out anyway, theorizing that the rig was 11 years old and a few scratches did not matter as much as having a way out to get home.

That night the couple refused to ride a bus to the American Red Cross-

Firehouse Chatter Young people entering the fray JS: Your name seems familiar to me. Haven’t I seen it in the HFD who we work with a lot on mutual aid calls?

ML: My dad is in Harrison Fire. He’s an 11-year member.

JS: How did you get the idea for the movie?

ML: We were sitting at the dinner table in October and my dad mentioned that a lot of firefighters are “aging out.” He also said there was a lack of incoming members to fill the gap. I decided to combine my love of film-making with that issue.

JS: The shortage is not just in Maine or the United States or the fire service. The younger people are just not volunteering. Why do you think this is?

ML: That’s a really good question. I love volunteering.

I do a lot at the high school.

I can’t really say why young people aren’t volunteering.

That’s kind of what I was trying to address with the film.

JS: I’ve seen your film a few times and think it’s a really good recruiting tool.

Do you think the lack of volunteers could be caused by the fact that young people are so busy with social media (Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, etc.) that they don’t have time for the real world?

They’re living in this imaginary world. Do you think I’m being too harsh?

ML: I somewhat agree with that. But, I also think that social media is a good thing. That’s how I’m distributing my film, on Youtube.

Maybe it will catch people who are tied up with social media. The film has been posted on some fire departments’ Facebook pages.

JS: Although you’re not in the fire service, what do you find most interesting about it?

ML: There are so many jobs. You don’t have to run into a burning building. It’s cool. There are many things

By Jay Spenciner For some years now, many of us in the fire and EMS (emergency medical service) fields have observed a steep decline in the numbers of young people entering our departments and services.

We’ve speculated as to the causes — people work much harder, new computer games, less interest in helping the community anymore and others.

I hoped it might provide some insight if I interviewed a few young people connected to the services; and so I have.

Mitchell Lisowski of Harrison has created a film on why people are attracted to the Harrison Fire Department.

Mitchell is an 18-yearold senior at Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School.

The film was his senior project. He will be attending the University of Connecticut after he graduates to study digital media design.

Bus service expanded

(Continued from Page 1A) ing, instead of cutting back.

Naples’ decision to not fund the bus service this year will not impact the scheduled stops in the town, Deberadinis said.

“We will continue the three stops in Naples,” he said.

“This is a regional service, not just a service for a particular town,” he said.

“The idea is that folks get on in each town. Individuals get on the bus and come into the communities for recreation and tourism.”

The Naples stops will continue as scheduled and the bus will still use the American Legion Post 155 parking lot, he said.

“First of all we respect the town’s decision to not fund the bus,” Deberadinis said.

“We appreciate that there

were a number of individuals who voted for the bus.”

“I do want to point out that Naples American Legion has been very generous and helpful to the bus service. They provide the winter home.

They have an area to park the bus overnight and they plow the area. It is a distinct benefit to park in that area that is plowed out everytime it snows,” Deberadinis said.

“It is not like we don’t get any support from Naples.

From the beginning, the American Legion has been supportive and provided the bus with a place to park.

There is a true value in having that,” he said.

Another question community members have asked is if the other towns will have to pay more to cover Naples’ share.

“Will we ask other towns

to cover funding? Absolutely not. The other four towns have made their decision. We asked for a certain amount from each town. The fact that Naples won’t fund it this year won’t affect any other towns,” he said.

More importantly, the regional bus service relies more on federal government funding than it does the money from the towns it serves. In other words, most of the money comes from the federal government.

“All public transportation is dependent on government subsidies. Our fiscal year is October through September.

It just happens to coincide with the federal government’s fiscal year,” he said.

“The key piece of funding comes from the Federal Transit Administration (FAA.) They are late this year

ANOTHER DAY ON THE ROAD for the Lakes Region Explorer, which will now offer Saturday service.

(De Busk Photo) announcing the allotment they will make,” he said.

He stressed that the Explorer will continue to make the three stops in Naples and not bypass the

town.

“We hope to talk to the new administration [in Naples] this coming year and ask them to fund it next year,” he said. “We think it is

best to wait for a new town manager.”

Foe to friend: WWII POWs worked on potato farms when we saw it was one of ours,” Lunn said.

It was when the war was over in 1945, and 2,000 prisoners of war (POWs) were sent to Houlton Airforce Base that the wheels were set into motion that would cause local farming families to see the enemy in a different light.

Victory in Europe (VE) Day happened on May 8, 1945, when the German armies formally surrendered to the Allied troops. For some

time, the WWII POWs, who had been captured in Africa and in Normandy, were sent to concentration camps in England.

“The U.S. was sending food to the English and to the POWs in England. Someone in Washington, D.C., had a good idea” to use the USS Liberty ship to transport food to England and pick up the German prisoners and bring them to back to America, Lunn said.

One young man in particular, Willi Kitzing, became a friend, he said.

“Germany took kids out of school. Some of these men were 16 or 17 years old.

They said, ‘Just as soon as we could, we surrendered.

Russians were coming over the border and we’d rather be captured by the Americans.”

“The number of POWs assigned to a farm was based on acreage. When they were not digging potatoes, the men sawed wood. That is what they did in the winter,” Lunn said.

The POWs, who chose to work, earned 14 cents a day.

“The Maine POWs had it really well. We were committed to the Geneva Conventions Act. They had haircuts, dental and medical care. They could go to the base canteen and buy near beer. The U.S. provided them with musical instruments,” he said.

Before the handful of POWs arrived at the farm, Lunn and his father had an important conversation in which Lunn asked his dad why they were picking potatoes when the POWs could do that for them.

His father answered, “It’s our farm. That’s your row.

Teach them how.”

One problem was that the prisoners were required to pick only 25 barrels a day.

Concentration camps were established “all over the United States” for 425,000 POWs, he said.

After the war, there was a shortage of farmers since most young men had enlisted and were still in the military. The POWs were sent to wherever the crops were, he said.

“Two thousand of them were in Maine and eight POWs ended up working on the farm,” Lunn said.

Given that poundage, Lunn’s dad did not think the crop would be out of the ground before frost. He offered the POWs a smoking deal.

For every additional barrel of potatoes beyond the 25 mark, his dad would give out a Lucky Strike cigarette. If someone harvested 45 barrels, he would give them a pack of Luckies.

“Boy, you should have seen those potatoes fly,” he said.

When the young POWs showed up with their meals of bologna and blended meat sandwiches, Lunn’s mom shook her head, saying the sandwiches were not enough to sustain farm work. So, she doubled up on the casseroles – whatever the family was eating, she made more for the POWs who worked on the farm. Meals included frosted cupcakes. Come to find out, Lunn’s mom was not the only farmer’s wife who fed the prisoners. Her kindness did not stop at the kitchen table.

“When they came into the house, they would stand in front of the woodstove. They took off their boots and some of them had no socks,” Lunn said, adding his mom would go to the sock and mitten drawer and secretly put socks and mittens in their boots.

“That belief of helping and caring for others wasn’t new,” he said. “We fed them and we got to know them.”

The man Lunn befriended, Willi, was 19 or 20 years old. When he saw Lunn’s 10-year-old sister, Gail, he pulled out a photo of his sister, who looked very similar and was about the same age.

Lunn’s sister ran upstairs and returned, presenting Willi with a package tied with red twine. Inside were doll clothes — to send to his sister. The next day, Willi gave it back and said accepting gifts was not allowed. For some reason, the moment had great emotion attached to it.

Lunn watched “the enemy standing in the kitchen crying with my sister.”

Another time, his sister was driving the tractor (A 1939 Massy-Harris Digger) across the soft, tilled field.

The POWs watched her bouncing up and down in the seat like she was on a bucking bronco. Suddenly, she bounced out of the seat and fell out of sight — between the seat and the wheel — with the tractor still rolling. One of the POWs scrambled to her rescue, stopping the equipment and most likely saving her life, Lunn said.

As time passed, the friendship between Lunn and Willi grew stronger. In fact, when he returned to France, they stayed in touch through letters. Many POWs willingly returned to Maine to visit.

In August 1945, the United Stated dropped the atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. “I was never able to talk to the men about that — that we had used the A-bomb.”

By the end of 1945, the Liberty ship took the German POWs back to Europe. The French people who had lived through the war were not as kind to them as Mainers had POTATO, Page 7A

Withdrawal: A matter of control?

(Continued from Page 1A) Based on his past experiences with the withdrawal process, Eastman fielded a variety of questions and clarified several issues.

They included: • How many votes at the November referendum will it take to withdraw? Answer: Two-thirds of the number of votes cast that day.

• What will it cost to run a school system? Answer: Dr. Eastman said a lot of work has been done to develop cost estimates, but there is no crystal ball that can tell the committee exact costs two years down the road, from when the group first started work on this effort. If the withdrawal is approved, the Sebago School Administrative Unit (SAU) starts July 2018.

Some numbers are firm, such as debt payment to SAD 61, as well as tuition costs to send students to the middle and high schools.

One resident questioned what Sebago’s financial responsibility would be if SAD 61 moves forward with a Crooked River project.

Sebago Director Joe McMahon said that while the project has yet to resurface for discussion at the SAD 61 board level, it is likely a matter of time that the issue is looked at once more. He noted that the price tag could be in the $8.1 million range.

If Sebago rejects withdrawal, it would be in line with the other three towns to take on this debt. If Sebago withdraws, the town would not be financially responsible for the project.

Under the proposed agreement, Sebago would, however, be held financially responsible for projects at LRHS and LRMS since the town sends students to those schools. At this time, no major projects are planned.

Dr. Eastman noted that the amount of money Sebago would receive, as its share of Capital Reserve funds from SAD 61, is not known. Sebago would receive 14.3% of that fund

Chatham’s Got Talent exhibit

CHATHAM, N.H. — The celebration of Chatham’s 250th year continues on Saturday, July 15, with Chatham’s Got Talent: an Exhibit of Hobbies and Collections, and a Chinese auction. Jeanne Eastman, president of the Chatham Historical Society, which is putting together the event, says, “Everyone has hobbies. Hobbies aren’t perfections or even necessarily profitable, but what you do for fun. I am so excited to see this display of our townspeople’s interests and skills. I expect it to be really impressive.”

The exhibit is open for folks of all ages from Chatham and neighboring towns to contribute. Items for the exhibit can be delivered ahead of time or during the event, which will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 15, at the lawn of the old schoolhouse in Chatham Center on Route 113B. Call 603-694-3388 or e-mail chathamnhhistoricalsociety@gmail.com for more information.

Some hobbies are performed, so there will be a small stage for those who sing, recite poetry, juggle, perform magic tricks, etc.

Eastman says, “We have some locally well-known musicians planning to play, and I think there are also

at the time of withdrawal.

SAD 61 recently pared that fund down, using money (on voter approval) on a variety of capital improvement projects such as upgrading of parking spaces at Songo Locks and Lake Region Middle School, and resurfacing of the high school track (by doing it this summer, the district saved $100,000).

Some unknowns include how to approach hiring a superintendent and how to address special education and fine art services.

Dr. Eastman said the SAU could seek out a retired superintendent, who is looking for a part-time situation.

Quickly, Dr. Eastman ruled out the possibility that he might be a candidate.

“There are a lot of good folks out there,” he said. “I will not be a candidate.”

As for special services, Sebago would likely look to contract with either SAD 61 or another outside organization. Sebago could take the approach of “sharing staff” with either SAD 61 or other schools for music and art.

Areas that Dr. Eastman will be “looking for some guidance on” include nursing and guidance services.

He noted that the agreement with SAD 61 allows “school choice” for 20% of Sebago’s student population.

That figure increases to 25% during the 10-year agreement with SAD 61. Who would be allowed to look beyond SAD 61 is another question to be considered — one possibility is a lottery.

“The Withdrawal Committee has been sensitive to the fact that people here have fairly strong ties to Lake Region High School. They were Lakers and want their kids to be Lakers,” Dr. Eastman said.

Sebago would also likely consider adding Pre-K, as well as retaining sixth grade rather than students going to the middle school.

• What will present Sebago Elementary teach-

While Dr. Eastman said there hasn’t been a lot of noise of staff transferring out if Sebago forms its own school system, Johnson suggested that the town reach out to staff to see if they have any questions.

“We need to reach out before they make any decisions,” she said.

The new Sebago SAU would offer staff the same contracts they presently hold with SAD 61.

Since few people have attended Withdrawal Committee meetings (which are open to the public), member Lisa Johnson feels a strong informational campaign is needed.

“There is a lot of misinformation and a lot of fear out there,” she said • If a new school system is created, what else will need to be done? For one, a school committee would need to be created and the town would need to decide how many members would be used. One likely configu-

Aug. 10: Public posting of first public hearing — date, time, location for SAD 61 and all municipalities to discuss merits of the proposed withdrawal agreement.

Aug. 21: Absolute latest date for first public hearing; statute allows 30 days to report results of the hearing to commissioner. lots of people who will be surprising us with their performances.” Anyone who would like a few minutes on stage can make a reservation ahead of time at the above number. “Or they may decide at the last minute that, yes, they do want to play their harmonica for the crowd, or do their cartwheels, or loon calls. Whatever their skills are, this is the time to share!” says Eastman.

The Historical Society has received donations of many items and services related to hobbies for the Chinese auction including two nights at the AMC Cold River Camp

Sept. 9: SAD 61 and Withdrawal Committee submit results of first public hearing and final agreement to commissioner for approval or possible changes.

ration would be a five-member board, rather than three since it allows more people to work on committees than all the work falling on the shoulders of three people.

Dr. Eastman said if the referendum passes in November, among the first orders of business would be to hire a superintendent and develop a budget.

• What will the current SES building need in the future in terms of maintenance, expansion? SAD 61 would turn over all records in regards to maintenance.

One suggestion was to have an independent contractor evaluate the structure.

While the negotiating process between Sebago and SAD 61 “took a little longer than we would have wanted, but that’s the point of negotiations, there is give and take,” Dr. Eastman said the town is in “good shape” as it continues its path toward a November referendum vote.

“Keeping people informed is critical,” he added.

different environment where kindness could take place.

My mother and father, until their last days on this earth, remembered with fondness the POWs.” Lunn said, as a historian, he sees both the political his-

tory and the humanitarian aspect of that time period. He recalled the men who were prisoners of war marching and singing a lot. One of their favorite songs was, “Oh, give me land, lots of land. Don’t fence me in.”

They’re my biggest inspirations and I want to help save lives.

JS: Do you plan to join a fire department when you finish school?

LG: It’s just interesting the way fire progresses and how it acts. Also, there’s definitely a bond between everybody that I really like.

Talking with...Mike Rand Mike Rand is 22 and is in his first year in the Bridgton FD. He grew up in Bridgton and went to LRHS. He’s planning to take Firefighter 1 and 2 in the near future.

JS: Why did you join the fire department?

MR: I’ve always had a thing about helping people. My grandfather was a fire chief for South Paris and my dad was on the fire department here in town. There’s just something about trying to help someone when their whole world is collapsing around them. If one person can help them, then that can change how they see what just happened. They can say, “Hey, someone does actually care about what’s happening to me.” If I can help one person, then I’ve made a difference; if I can help two, that’s awesome.

JS: What do you enjoy about being in the fire service, other than helping people, if anything?

MR: I like being around people, who one minute can be sitting around joking, having fun, then the tones go off and everything stops and we’re out the door. We’ve got work to do. I love being around the people at the fire department.

They’ve helped me a lot since I’ve started. They’ve given me pointers. I’ve learned so much in under a year.

JS: Do you enjoy the comraderie?

MR: Yep, I do. It’s a giant family. I mean, I’m still new, but I don’t get treated any differently than someone who’s been in the department for 20 years. I just want younger kids to realize that without a fire department, without a police department, without EMS, a lot of things would be at risk of being lost. It’s hard to find people who actually want to be volunteer firefighters. It’s not about money; it’s about helping people in your community. I love this town and I want to help it as much as I can.

Talking with...Kate Whitaker In Denmark, first responders provide emergency care to patients while awaiting United Ambulance to arrive from Bridgton. It is part of the Denmark FD. Kate Whitaker, 29, is a first responder for the Denmark Fire Department.

JS: What got you interested in being a first responder?

KW: I’ve always been interested in the medical field. I have my medical assisting associate’s degree. Chris (Chris Wentworth, DFD Chief) came to Katelyn and me and said Denmark needs first responders and I jumped right on that.

It’s something I was thinking about in my younger years. And now, I had the opportunity.

JS: What about the first responder and medical field appealed to you?

KW: I like helping people, especially in this community.

It’s a great community here, very family driven, very close. I want to be a part of that.

JS: Do you have any relatives in the medical field or the fire department?

KW: My grandmother was a nurse, but nobody is in a fire department.

JS: You probably realize there is a great lack of firefighters and first responders in your age category. Why do you think?

KW: Yes. I feel like people my age these days don’t really have that care for community. Not that they don’t care. It wasn’t instilled in them as much as it was in me. I feel our generation is more into the party scene, busy, going to cities, not staying in the small communities.

JS: Do you have any thoughts on how we might attract younger people to our departments?

KW: Just tell them the truth, I guess, what they get out of CHATTER, Page 8A

The Bridgton Community Band continues its summer concert season on Wednesday, July 12 at 7:30 p.m. at the bandstand behind Rite Aid. The band is pleased to present John Knox as its second guest conductor.

Born and raised in Saco, John began playing trumpet at age 10 and continues to play in a number of community bands. His trumpet teacher, John Trull of Old Orchard Beach encouraged him to join Painchaud’s Band in Biddeford while attending Thornton Academy, providing him with the opportunity

to play with many accomplished musicians in York County.

John attended the University of Southern Maine at Gorham as a music education major. He always kept a trumpet close at hand and became associated with the Kora Shrine band, as well as several other community bands — Westbrook, Chandler’s, Bridgton and Portland Commandery, serving as its director for several years.

Trumpet performance is his first love, and he looks forward to assisting the Bridgton

HIRAM — Allen F. Crabtree III will share stories from his book, Uncle Charlie’s Tapeworm: and other Effingham Yarns, on Saturday, July 8, at 1:30 p.m. at the Great Ossipee Museum, 20 Historical Ridge in Hiram (off Rte. 117 and Schoolhouse Rd., across from the Fire Dept. in Hiram village). This is a joint program hosted by Soldiers Memorial Library and the Hiram Historical Society. The Historical Society will hold a business meeting before the program at 1 p.m.

The stories come from Allen Crabtree’s father’s oral history, which focuses on the years 1916 to 1921 when he lived in Effingham, N.H. Then ten years old, Allen Crabtree Jr. finds a completely new world when he moves with his parents from the city to the wilds of a small New Hampshire farming community. Allen vividly relates stories about his neighbors and how he learned hard work on the family farm and how to work in the woods, fish, hunt, and trap in the hills and streams. He also tells of the fun he had 100 years ago and a way of life that is no more.

Allen F. Crabtree III is a blueberry farmer, collector of old books, and author who lives in Sebago. His latest book, Go Take a Hike — Hiking Tips and Outings for Seniors in Western Maine and the White Mountains, was published in May 2017.

The program is free and open to the public, and light refreshments will be served. More information, call 625-4650 or 625-4762.

(Continued from Page 7A) it, helping people. Instill the sense of community in them.

Talking with...Katelyn Callaghan Katelyn Callaghan, 30, is a first responder and firefighter for the Denmark FD. Her father, uncle and brother are all firefighters. Her grandfather recently retired after many decades in the DFD. She has been in the department for two years. She mentioned to me that she feels that the fire department is “in her blood.” I can certainly understand why she feels that way.

JS: Why do you think that not that many from your age group are in fire departments or EMS? KC: I think it’s the world we live in now. I don’t think young people have the time. It’s not like 10, 20 years ago when a call came in, you could just leave work and go. Also, a lot of people are now working farther away from home.

JS: I think what you’re saying is true, but…

KP: And, I don’t think the young people understand the services out there. It’s not that they don’t care. I think when they’re in high school, there should be more stuff put out there about these services. I think there might be more people inclined to do it at a younger age. I don’t think young people understand what it takes to have the resources and services we have. I don’t think young people know there’s a need for it. I’d like to think people want to help people and their community. Back when my brother was in school, they did a junior firefighter (program) and I know it takes a lot of effort and energy for someone to head it up and manage it, but if you look at our department now, most of our younger members did the junior firefighting program. I feel if they get involved younger, kids are looking at their futures. They can put it on their college resume. I think, especially boys, and I don’t want to limit girls, you know I’m here, but parents should encourage it. It will keep them out of trouble. They’ll have structure. They’ll have responsibility. I don’t think high school is too early.

JS: I know some of the area fire departments have tried junior firefighting programs, some more successfully than others. But, it might not be a bad idea to put in a renewed effort in this area, perhaps with some new approaches.

Obviously, those young people with first responders in their families are our best prospects. But, we need more than that. We must attract new blood. Otherwise, in the near future, many towns may be choosing between paid, full-time firefighters or not really having fire coverage.

The First Congregational Church of Bridgton, located at 33 South High St., is proud to announce the second concert in its summer series, to be held at the church on Sunday, July 9, at 2 p.m. The concert has a patriotic theme and will feature The Promise Singers and local trumpeter, Jerry Emerson.

The Promise Singers, a group of women who were looking for an outlet to get together and sing, chose the name of their group from the title of the song, I Am A Promise. When they first started performing they sang mostly sacred music but over time they have evolved to include both sacred and secular music scored for soprano, alto, and tenor voices. The group Learning about “tree cookies” currently consists of 13 vocalists and has had diverse members throughout the years, most having retired at a fairly advanced age. Jayne Hamaty, soprano, states that, “we have been through illnesses, babies, grandbabies, and a host of other life-changing events. Our love and care for each other is always present.

Our weekly rehearsals in the fall give us a chance to stay connected and support each other. We have been a group for 40 years. Members are from the surrounding towns of Bridgton, Denmark, Fryeburg, Brownfield, and Cornish. Our Christmas concerts, held in Denmark and Bridgton, are highly-anticipated by our loyal followers.”

The concert is free and open to the community and light refreshments will follow in the church’s Fellowship Hall.

HARRISON — The Sebago-Long Lake Music Festival is excited to open its 45th season on Tuesday, July 11, at 7:30 P.M. at Deertrees Theatre in Harrison.

Designed by music director and renowned pianist, Mihae Lee, for its quality and variety, the Festival’s concerts have garnered a reputation for presenting extraordinary concerts performed by internationally acclaimed artists in a beautiful woodland setting with superb acoustics. The Festival has been lauded by the Portland Press Herald: “Backstage at the Deertrees Theatre in Harrison opens onto the Maine woods, the theater itself has some of the most remarkable acoustics in New England, and the chamber music one would expect to hear at Lincoln Center.”

The opening concert’s program, Inspiring Mozart, offers works that are delightful, lively, and triumphant.

Bookending the first half of the program are two charming and beloved pieces Mozart wrote for clarinet and horn.

Mozart-Adagio for Piano Trio by renowned Estonian composer Arvo Pärt is an effective transcription of the adagio from Mozart’s early piano sonata in F Major, as well as a wonderful study of Mozart’s influence reaching far into the future. The Fauré Piano Quartet, a blockbuster masterwork that pulls out all the stops, will conclude Tuesday night’s concert pulling. Everyone is welcome to

For babies requiring extensive resuscitative measures at birth, the new baby monitors will allow clinicians to monitor their vital signs. The new monitors will also allow the staff to send data for consultation electronically to specialists at other facilities, potentially avoiding the need to transfer these infants to other hospitals for more advanced treatment.

Community picnic

The Ecumenical Group of Bridgton, consisting of the area churches, is coming together to provide an evening of free food and music for the community of Bridgton on Wednesday, Aug. 2, from 5 to 7 p.m. (possible rain date of Thursday, Aug. 3).

This community picnic is being held to get back to the summers of the past, evoking a time when happy gatherings were frequently held at the local park. Residents only need to bring their lawn chairs and the love of a summer evening to sit back and enjoy the beauty of Maine.

This year, local folk band Alternate Endings has agreed to donate their services to enhance the event. Vanessa Jones, the band’s spokesperson, is a skilled fiddler and violin player who joins the rest of the band, which includes a mandolin and bass.

Anyone who enjoys free food, great music, and a beautiful summer evening in Maine should come out and join the community fun!

They are currently looking for sponsors from local businesses to cover the cost of sandwiches, which will be provided

by Subway and include a selection of veggie, ham, and turkey along with chips. The Ecumenical Group will be serving cookies for dessert and Hannaford will be providing water for those who attend. Suggested business sponsorship is $100, however, every little bit helps. Business that wish to contribute to this event or would like more information should contact St. Peter’s From left to right: Father Craig Hacker, Father Peter Lewis, Ian VanLeewen, Pastor Cathy Canton, Pastor Emily Episcopal Church at 647-8549.

Goodnow, and Pastor Vance Jordon.

What a great way to spend the Fourth!

41st annual Bridgton 4 On The Fourth Race

As a race director, Jim Cossey always strives to produce a “smooth” race. For the most part, he achieved the goal.

“Excellent race in great weather. Started on time and there were no major issues. The first time ever attempt to limit access to the front of the start pack was successful and will be continued with some adjustments for future races,” he said. “The Race Committee and almost 100 volunteers did a great job!”

Rob Gomez, 38, also did a great job in his first appearance running Bridgton. Having moved to Windham, Gomez put together the fastest winning time since 2010, breaking the tape on Depot Street in 20 minutes, 18 seconds.

Heather Mahoney, 34, of Westford, Mass. was the fastest woman, completing the fourmiler in 24 minutes, 15 seconds.

As he does each year, Cossey provided the following interesting facts about the 2017 race: • 2,235 race bibs were sold • 88 no-shows • 100 runners did not finish • 2,047 finishers • Runners from 40 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico participated • Runners from 17 other countries participated • 671 campers participated — a new record number.

The message from Trumpland

Until a recent evening, I had never met a self-described Trump supporter. Maybe it is because I move in excessively liberal circles — but I have lots of self-described conservative friends who eschew the Trump label. Or maybe it is because hidden or secret Trumpites of my acquaintance simply wanted to avoid derision or obloquy.

Whatever the background, the other evening I found myself chatting with a woman who readily admitted to membership in the president’s clan of supporters. Asked why or what drew her in, she replied something like, “because I believe people ought to take personal responsibility for their own well-being.” The conversation, also joined by a Trump opponent, quickly became a debate over health care proposals (of which more I write in a paragraph or so).

Growing up in the solidly Democratic, FDR-loyal state of Georgia, all of my relatives were anti-New Deal Republicans.

Littered landscape

To The Editor: Of all the frustrations that afflict us in our daily lives, roadside litter might be low on our list. Nevertheless, its senselessness provokes many of us, especially those who work for community betterment. Whether intentional or accidental, littering is criminal behavior but not easily enforced. What can be done about it?

It has been shown that having trash cans available cuts littering behavior significantly.

How about a campaign to promote litter containers in cars?

Several models of varying capacities can either sit on the car floor in the back seat or hang from the front headrests.

They’re available from large box stores, but these items could and should be sold at gas stations and rest stops. You can also make your own car trash container.

Medicare nugget

By Stan Cohen Medicare Volunteer It is important to know whether your hospital overnight stay is designated inpatient or outpatient.

Under traditional Medicare, if you are overnight as an outpatient, [example: for “observation”] the hospital will bill outpatient services, like radiology and laboratory services, under Medicare Part B. That includes physician’s services even if the physician was not your primary care doctor.

You may then owe coinsurance (usually 20% of Medicare’s approved amount for that care). Those coinsurance charges may be covered by your Medicare supplement insurance, but if you have a Medicare Advantage plan you will need to ask the plan if there will be any copays charged to you.

On the other hand, you are an inpatient if your attending physician has formally admitted you as an inpatient. While an inpatient your physician services will be billed under Part B, but the hospital charges will come under Part A. If you are a hospital inpatient, you must first meet the Part A hospital deductible of $1,316. Once you meet the deductible, you pay zero dollars for the first 60 days of inpatient care in each benefit period. You may owe daily hospital charges for stays longer than 60 days. The Part A deductible and long-stay hospital charges may be covered by your Medicare supplement insurance.

If you don’t know how your hospital stay has been classified (inpatient or outpatient) — ask.

Watch out, litterbugs! Penalties include fines (from $100 to $25,000), litter cleanup, payment of damages, public service, and/or license suspension, depending on the amount of litter.

Encouraging citizens to pick up roadside trash is another way to suppress littering because the presence of litter seems to increase the likelihood that more litter will be deposited. Fortunately, there is good news on the roadside litter front. The two-ounce liquor bottles, sometimes referred to as “nips,” have been added to the returnable bottle list and will require a five-cent deposit as of January 1, 2019. This will encourage people to turn them in for refund or donate them

to the many nonprofits that organize fundraisers collecting returnable bottles and cans.

From personal experience picking up roadside trash, I would say that about one-third of the litter can be recycled or returned for cash.

Why do people lie?

Indeed, one of the attendees at the “Polarization” meeting railed on and on about the millions of dollars the Koch brothers were spending on Republican ventures, not realizing, ironically, this individual was just accentuating and contributing to this “Polarization.” The discussions have to be about issues, not partisanship.

I will go to the July 10 meeting and take notes for future reference.

Commemorating the Fourth of July

In advance of Independence Day, U.S. Senator Susan Collins issued the following statement: “On Independence Day, we give thanks to that founding generation of Americans who risked all to overcome tyranny so that they, and all the generations to come, could live in freedom. We also express gratitude for the many Americans since who have answered the call to serve and sacrifice for the ideals of our founding.

To be an American, whether by birth or by choice, is a precious gift. As citizens of this great nation, we can all be proud of our heritage and confident in our future.

The principles of July 4, 1776, still speak to us and to all humanity. Now, as then, we pledge our lives and honor to freedom’s defense. And we will always believe that freedom is the hope and the future of every land.”

To The Editor: Mr. Trump’s tweeting yesterday was a continuation of his outrageous behavior that threatens not only our country, but the peace of our entire planet. Our Congress and courts must do the right thing. We the People are growing very impatient with this evil that has overshadowed our land.

We do not have to know why Mr. Trump is our president any longer. All we need to know is that any benefit that he can bring to our nation is far outweighed by his moral deficiency — his evil.

He needs to immediately resign or be immediately removed by the vice president, a Cabinet majority, and Congress as per the 25th Amendment. http://americanfreepressmedia.blogspot.com/2017/06/ americas-incredible-leader. html Michael Corthell Bridgton

This move has been a couple of years in the making. We don’t, however, plan to break our ties to Bridgton — at least, not right away. We’ve renewed our subscription to The Bridgton News and I’m committed to contributing to the Earth Notes column through the end of this year.

After that, we’ll see. I’ll also be writing letters to the editor from time to time, like this one.

As Donald Trump’s fraudulent election shows, popular majorities seldom elect tyrants. Even with the help of massive voter suppression campaigns in Republicancontrolled states, and the unprecedented, illegal cyber warfare of Vladimir Putin’s Russian government, Trump still was able to poll barely 44 percent of the popular vote. All his boasting about a massive landslide is just more pathological lying. His percentage of the electoral vote ranks 43rd out of the 50 presidential elections in American history. But, as Trump’s cynical enablers have said, facts don’t matter if your supporters believe everything you say.

Contrary to popular belief, the German people did not elect Adolf Hitler and the Nazis to power. In fact, Nazis never polled more than 37.3 percent of the popular vote in any fair election under the Weimar Republic. That was their share in 1932, while winning barely a third of the seats in the Reichstag. Even in the hastily called election of 1933, which was rife with voter intimidation by S.A. Brownshirt thugs, they still were unable to gain a majority, polling 43.9 percent of the popular vote (almost exactly the same percentage as Trump), and finished well short of a majority of Reichstag seats.

I hike for the cheeseburger

(Continued from Page 1D) beyond Berlin and west almost to Vermont. It borders Bethel and Plymouth, New Hampshire. North Conway, that bastion of retail and development interests, is collared by the White Mountain National Forest. Judging from the hikers I meet on the trail, people actually travel from all over the U.S. to hike, take in the view, and eat cheeseburgers.

So, from my driveway in Lovell, I can’t see the reasoning behind stopping the expansion of the Baxter State Park holdings with a national monument. Yet Governor Lepage is opposed to this gift of land. The paper industry and its lumber requirements will never return, but a means to preserve the ecosystem and incubate an industry has dropped in our laps.

I’d like to see Hannaford and the Magic Lantern conduct a survey on how many customers pass through their doors because they are using the national forest. I’d like to ask the 30 nearby summer camp businesses how much they rely upon the national forest. When I mow my lawn I am a few miles in three directions from national land and I don’t feel abused or ignored. I still see logging trucks on Route 5, residential contractors are busy, and retail is thriving.

When I rafted the Grand Canyon I noted with some astonishment that its status as a federal acquisition was fought vigorously in the 1890s. The mining, and ranching interests lobbied hard to stop the process. It was opposed in the Supreme Court as an overly aggressive federal government supplanting local interests. I suspect some of the adversity came from not wanting to be dominated by a central gov-

ernment. I get that. In the present, however, is there anyone who disagrees that protecting that vast expanse was, and is, an integral part of the fabric of our nation. I would speculate that the business activity that has grown up along the Grand Canyon route far outweighs the economic loss from mining and timber. In 1908, 44,000 people visited one of the two rims of the canyon. Last year it was five million. That’s a lot of cheeseburgers, not to mention views.

Our governor called the Baxter area “mosquito-land” (way-to-go for endearing yourself to the area’s residents!). In the 1890s, some in congress called the Grand Canyon grab “pork barreling.” The Arizona governor called it “brilliant.”

He must have seen something more than our Governor does.

Maine is the most forested state in the continental United States, but there is nothing to guarantee it will remain so. I read somewhere that all of the state has been clear-cut a least three times since colonists arrived. A Federal Park is our means of guaranteeing a setting for our future generations.

You only go around once! Enjoy the Saco. Hike the national forest. Watch the 4th of July parades. Commune at your local fire department bean supper. All this is only ours if we continue to value it.

SUNLIT TREE TRUNK — The light-colored bark of this tree trunk appears to be illuminated, especially when the direct sun hits it. In Maine and other North American locations, the increased sunlight hours are evident both in the wooded areas and in neighborhood gardens. In equal measures, the number of tourists and summer residents has increased along with the daylight hours.

(Continued from Page 2D) nowhere near a majority of Americans voted for Trump or support him today, his mindless tribe of white, male, Christian supremacists continues to drag the United States ever closer to authoritarian tyranny. Trump’s latest ploy is trying to get all the states to submit their complete voter rolls to the White House, despite the fact that they have no legal right to do that. It’s a transparent attempt to compile a national database to be used in rigging future elections so that Republicans can’t lose. Thankfully, most states have refused to comply, even states Trump carried easily, like Mississippi. If you aren’t interested in honest elections in the future, support Trump and his enablers. They’ll take care of it.

Veteran columnist Ruth Marcus recently wrote that tyranny unfolds “slowly until, perhaps too late, the change becomes blindingly apparent. So it is with Trump’s dealings with the media, and the effective disappearance of public accountability. Authoritarianism does not announce itself. It creeps up on you.” The moral of this story: Those who will not resist creeping tyranny deserve to be ruled by it.

Ignoring the Declaration

To The Editor: Why do Progressives throw the Declaration of

(Continued from Page 1D) always-feared racial equality that seemed an inevitable byproduct of government by radical Democrats. Sooner or later, it was thought, as government largess was spread about, the racial lines would fade and benefits for some would be transformed into benefits for all on the basis of equality of citizenship. I don’t say that the Trumpite lady I met was so motivated — although some in the anti-Obama camp were surely so persuaded. No, she seemed to draw the line not along racial lines, but on societal division — those who can and will cope with life’s aggravations and those who don’t want or bother to struggle.

Take health care, for example, as our conversation did. The Trump lady seemed to think that if a fellow citizen suffered from an accident or serious illness, he/she should have taken well beforehand the precaution of buying insurance against such an event. She acknowledged that a small child or aged person on hard times might be exceptions to the rule of individual responsibility, but not the able-bodied citizen. One less IPhone or TV set; instead, regular insurance payments.

There is lurking in this doctrine the fragmentation of our solidarity as a nation. We believe in and are willing to pay for the common or public goods of national defense, anticrime measures, or educational spending (within limits to be sure).

But health care appears to an exception to this rule of helping

fellow citizens, especially those who can’t help themselves.

Other developed (and some developing) nations have organized themselves for single government-provided health care at less cost and comparable quality to us. Why not America? Why is it that we will gladly pay taxes to haul away the trash of others but not to patch up their wounds?

Perhaps it is that health care is the most important common good and, hence, not to be entrusted to government hands generally deemed to be incompetent. We see what can happen to postal mail that is lost or slow in semiofficial hands; we don’t want that to happen to our treatment in the hands of a [government-hired] physician. Meanwhile, don’t dare touch our Social Security or Medicare.

We see this philosophy in the Republican-devised bill (1) to replace Obamacare with a reduction in the number (mere millions) of persons receiving Medicaid benefits, and (2) the companion gift of reduced taxes on the wealthy, which were designed to pay for those benefits. It is the fulfillment of the dream of Trumpites to elevate with one swoop the doctrine of self-responsibility and the avoidance of taxes. It is a negative form of nationalism (America First!) that celebrates solidarity against the world beyond our borders but scants the world of neighbors within.

Henry Precht is a retired Foreign Service Officer.

Independence under the bus? From the Progressive (Democrats and Republicans) point of view the Declaration of Independence limits the powers of government because it recognizes that property underwrites liberty and that our rights come from “…

Nature and Nature’s God…” not from the government.

On the Fourth of July, each year we celebrate the Declaration of Independence, which is our Founder’s case against power and wealth being concentrated in government rather than the People.

This central theme of the Declaration of Independence was a radical departure from the status quo of governmentrun tyrannies. Today, faced with progressive tyranny, it is still a radical concept — our rights are God-given and not at the whim of politicians, judges, or bureaucrats.

Government is incapable of respecting all people’s rights simultaneously; it can only give rights to some by taking them from others.

This is a blatant violation of the whole concept of the Declaration of Independence and is why the Constitution allows government only a few, limited powers.

Our rights are imbedded in our being and cannot be taken away by government functionaries. Life, liberty, and property (pursuit of happiness) are the basis for our Constitution’s limits on government power. More importantly, our rights are unlimited so long as we don’t use our rights to deny others their rights.

Broken trust

To The Editor In reference to the story appearing in the June 29, 2017 issue of your paper, the president of Bridgton Hospital, David Frum, is quoted as saying, “Rightsizing of the hospital is the right way for them to get ahead of the impending financial pressures.”

Everyone knows that change is difficult at the best of times, however it does depend how the change is

implemented that makes the difference. Perhaps, this is the right choice for the hospital. I realize that the hospital is a business, but from a family with a loved one that has been a patient of Dr. Hans Boedeker for eight years, this is so irresponsible from our viewpoint.

Obviously, these cuts were thought and planned out ahead of time. So my question to those responsible for these actions is this: did you think these doctors would roll over and do another 120 days without opposition?

Perhaps, you should have taken into consideration that some of the “chosen ones” would choose to walk. Then and only then would you have had another doctor ready to step in and continue

Opinions the care of these patients, sadly there are many.

This is a department where people’s lives are on the line. Your choices affect not just this department. We are involved with another doctor/department at Bridgton Hospital that is involved in your cutbacks. Our thoughts and feelings cover all these doctors. And really, if these doctors are nearing retirement, is it your right to help them make the choice when they will retire! I have hopes they will rebound and become “Doctors Strong.”

I cannot say enough thanks or give enough appreciation and praise to the gals that work in the Bridgton Hospital Oncology Department. Their professionalism has always shined,

but while dealing with this heartbreaking news, these gals put their shock, hurt and sadness aside and immediately started notifying patients by phone as quickly as each case warranted.

We love you girls and also gratitude of thanks goes out to the Central Maine Medical Center Oncology Department. They also have reached out to us with as much promptness as possible. We have the deepest and utmost respect for Dr. Boedeker. More importantly, we trusted his judgment in guiding my husband through many types of cancer, not just one. We also trusted CMMC and we feel that trust has been broken by the action that has been taken and the way that it was handled.

by Donald Trump. Even though “crude and egotistical,” Trump comes across as the friendly gadfly you might meet at a “corner bar.”

Voters therefore tune out “mainstream media” reports about Trump’s shortcomings and love it when he “hits back.”

What nonsense.

Obviously, Trump has a following, including McLaughlin and the people he runs with. But majorities of Americans — and Mainers — continue to reject Trump. He collected three million fewer popular votes last November than Hillary Clinton, a deeply-flawed candidate, who suffered the dual misfortune of Vladimir Putin’s intentional sabotage and James Comey’s hamhanded interference.

New health care unfair to Mainers

(Continued from Page 1D) whether at home or in a nursing home. Maine has already had several nursing homes close and family caregivers cannot be expected to shoulder more care responsibilities.

Finally, the Senate bill would cut $58.6 billion from Medicare, making it harder for Medicare to pay for services in the future. The bill repeals a 0.9 payroll tax on high-income individuals that was designed to help make sure Medicare remains solvent. This disturbing proposal in the bill would impact over 296,000 Mainers, including younger individuals with disabilities.

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) issued their analysis of the bill on June 26. Their report states that if the BRCA passes, 15 million Americans will lose their health care coverage in just one year. By 2026, 22 million will lose their health insurance. Placing the nation’s most vulnerable residents in such an untenable position becomes even more egregious when one considers that the BRCA calls for tens of billions in tax breaks for drug and insurance companies and wealthy Americans.

AARP Maine is opposed to this deeply-flawed legislation. Volunteers and local residents recently participated in meetings with both Senator Collins and Senator King where, together, we expressed our concerns. We continue to urge both Senators to reject this or any other health care plan that would have a negative impact on millions of Americans and hundreds of thousands of Mainers. We need legislation that is about health and about care. This bill is neither. Call your senators today and urge them to stand strong for Maine.

The ‘Fireworks Bandits’

Some of my favorite Fourth of July memories are when my Aunt Loretta and my cousins Todd and Troy would come to visit my family in North Kenai, Alaska.

Back then, in the ‘70s, the fireworks regulations were fairly lax and hand-built fireworks stands popped up along the road sides like lupine or fireweed.

About a decade later, some legislation was passed which allowed for a monopoly on fireworks sales. The law designated one place south of Fairbanks and north of Anchorage where fireworks were sold. That place was Gorilla Fireworks in Wasilla, right off the George Parks Highway where no one could miss it.

On Independence Day, Gorilla Fireworks is open 24 hours, and the operation is open year-round. The business offers “bush orders” for those people in too isolated of a region to make the trip to Wasilla.

Anyhow — long before Alaskans had to travel hundreds of miles to get their fireworks fix — there were temporary fireworks stands in every little community, including mine.

One smart entrepreneur set up the pyrotechnics stopand-shop right across from the local grocery store in our hometown.

I remember all of us were sitting in the car staring at the goods: the fountains that were as tall as a toddler, the round containers that displayed a drawing of the parachute that would unfold and fall from the sky, the coiled black snakes that we children were allowed to light on our own.

That’s when my aunt shared with us what I thought was the best idea. She said we should all put bandanas over our faces and tell the attendants to get out of the booth and move away from the stand. Then, she would ignite the entire fireworks stand and we could stand back and watch the show.

At age 10 or 11, my aunt’s off-the-wall suggestion seemed like a fun and fabulous thing to do. We would be the fireworks stand bandits, a gang travelling from stand to stand, detonating the colorful and the noisy all at once.

The fact that it was an entirely unsafe (and illegal) activity did not enter my young mind.

Later that night, everyone got a scare when my younger brother and my cousin tossed some firecrackers into the fire pit by the lake. No one knew which way to run. My mom thought nails were shooting at us, from some building materials that had been tossed into the fire. It was the two boys who had made the mistake of thinking that firecrackers in the fire might be funny. But, it was all of us children who heard the long lecture on safety.

Another time, my brother was using matches to light a few fireworks and he was about 12 feet from our 500-gallon gasoline tank. I think that some gas had spilled on the ground.

From her viewpoint in the kitchen, my mother looked and started shouting for my brother to run because the ground had caught fire. Luckily, the gas fumes burnt off as quickly as it started and my sibling was out of harm’s way.

(Perhaps, it was incidents like those that concerned lawmakers who decided to limit and control fireworks purchases.)

However, other than those two times, my parents always oversaw the lighting and igniting of fireworks. Even sparklers were done under supervision.

The daydream of being a fireworks stand bandit stuck in my mind with so much detail. What a gang that would have been. Not! Mainers are more lucky than Alaskans when it comes to being able to view fireworks displays. In Alaska, the July sun stays up late and there is only a short period of darkness where pricier fountains and skyward displays can be seen.

Fourth of July with our cousins was about staying up really, really late like past midnight. Independence Day was about being the first person to grab the parachute that fluttered down like a moth with wing damage. It was about jumping off the dock, swimming or taking the boats across the lake not just once, but multiple times. It was about eating an abundance of food at various times throughout the day.

The Fourth was one of the few times we were allowed to drink soda pop instead of Kool-Aid or Tang. Rarely were we able to finish a whole can. The carbonated Coke or 7UP was a huge treat we associated with holidays.

Come to think of it, celebrating the holiday today is not much different that it was in the 1970s. The Fourth of July is about families getting together at a time when children are out of school and adults are off work. There is a special feeling that comes with having a house full of people who are related to you. As children, there is nothing better than the promise of an exciting day and the chance to stay up past bedtime. As adults, the exciting days, late nights and fantastical fireworks probably still rate high on the scale of July 4th favorites.

Letters

(Continued from Page 4D) gin nearly identical to the national one.

At the time of the election, many ordinary Americans dared to hope that Trump might spur the sort of economic change he talked about during the campaign.

We now know his promises were threadbare, and presidential approval polls reflect that unhappy reality.

The Trump agenda consists of goodies for the rich and powerful, accompanied by continued “crude and egotistical” bluster. The Trump administration’s abuses of executive power and ethical

lapses have sunk to a sorry level without precedent in American history.

McLaughlin may enjoy having a clown hold the highest office in the land, but he might pay more attention to the international context.

Trump has cozied up with America’s most dangerous adversaries while repeatedly insulting our democratic allies. He puts at risk the stable world order patiently constructed over the past 70 years by presidents of both parties — Truman, Kennedy, Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and Obama. Perhaps, the White House is not the right place for the colorful character who hangs out at the corner bar.

This week’s game solutions

RAYMOND — William (Bill) Towle, 80, died at home of esophageal cancer on Friday, June 23, 2017.

He was born in Richmond, but grew up attending Auburn schools, graduating from Edward Little High School in 1955.

He received a four-year scholarship to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), graduating in 1963 with three degrees in aeronautical engineering. In 1958, he married his best friend and lifelong mate, Faith Webber. When he was granted a Fulbright Scholarship to Delft University in the Netherlands in 1960, they went abroad together. That experience initiated a wanderlust that continued to influence the rest of his life.

Bill always said he had three careers. The first job, based on his major at MIT in the field of aeronautical engineering, was in Los Angeles. Before starting a family, Bill and Faith spent several months traveling abroad exploring Italy, Greece, Yugoslavia and Egypt. After their two sons were born, they decided to return to New England to be nearer their families in Maine. Bill was still in the same field but became increasingly restless for a new and different challenge.

When he learned that the World Health Organization (WHO) was looking for people with his kind of Operations Research experience, he saw an opportunity to start a second career living in a third-world country where he could contribute to improving the health care system and this benefited many lives. In 1972, Bill’s family moved to New Delhi, India. For five years, he worked with the public health ministries of several Southeast Asian countries, including Thailand, Nepal, Indonesia and Bangladesh. His main focus was in Thailand, and it was there that he felt most fulfilled by what he had accomplished.

After leaving India, they spent a brief time in the Washington, D.C. area. During those years, Bill worked mostly in various African countries as a consultant. He also continued his lifelong desire for new learning opportunities by earning a master’s degree from Georgetown University. When Bill learned about an interesting job at WHO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, he and the family agreed to launch on yet another new adventure. They moved to the Geneva area in 1972 and remained there until Bill’s retirement in 1996.

Bill decided to return to his roots in Maine when he retired. At age 60, he was not ready to stop working, so he began his third career — portfolio management. He had already been investing for family members for quite some time, but friends (noting his success in this business) offered to become paying clients. He became certified, and faithfully practiced a fiduciary approach to investing. Via word of mouth, his client list grew and became a rewarding career for him.

Bill continued to work for his clients even after his cancer diagnosis until the end of May 2017.

During his 21 years back in Maine, Bill also became very interested in forestry. He and Faith own a fairly large parcel of woodland, and Bill very much enjoyed working in his woods. He joined the Woodland Owners of Maine (formerly SWOAM, Small Woodland Owners Association of Maine) and served on its board as treasurer, as well as on the land trust board. They were also one of his pro bono clients.

During those last 20 years, Bill and Faith decided to continue their love of visiting and discovering new countries and cultures.

They made a “bucket list” and were able to travel to many fascinating destinations — Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, China, Hungary, Turkey, Iceland, Ireland, Scotland, Labrador and Newfoundland.

Music was important in Bill’s life, both classical and jazz. He formerly enjoyed sports such as tennis and golf, but his favorite was cycling, exploring as many Maine back roads as possible. He was also a lifelong fan of the Boston sports teams. Another hobby was collecting wine. He was never active in politics, but he did work to support ranked choice voting and has always supported groups that work for human rights, especially women’s rights. He was a humanist and a pragmatist.

Family was always very important. After Faith, Bill’s two sons were his best friends. Losing his younger son, Steve, at age 36, in a skiing accident was extremely painful. The four adult children have remained close and supportive, a great joy to Bill. He enjoyed the short time he was able to enjoy his five grandchildren and regretted that dying meant he would not live to know their destinies. Bill had a very special life, full of fascinating experiences and fulfilling opportunities. He will be missed by the many whose lives he touched.

Instead of flowers, please make a donation in Bill’s memory to: Androscoggin Home Care & Hospice, 15 Strawberry Ave., Lewiston, ME 04240.

Beverly R. Cox SEBAGO — Beverly R. Cox, 83, of Sebago, passed away on Monday, June 26, 2017, surrounded by family.

Beverly was born in Cheshire, Connecticut, on Jan. 3, 1934, the daughter of George and Daisy Reinhard. Beverly moved to Naples with her family as a child, where she met her husband Richard.

They were married for 57 years, and she passed on the same day as Richard, two years later.

Beverly worked for the Town of Sebago for 23 years as Town Clerk, Treasurer and Tax Collector. She was a member of the Sebago Fireman’s Ladies Auxiliary and spent countless hours volunteering for Sebago Days. Beverly was also a very active member of her church, North Sebago United Methodist Church, where she was well-known for her homemade pies at church suppers. Beverly most enjoyed family gatherings, hosting many of them over the years. She and Richard enjoyed camping in Jackman. They operated a Christmas tree farm in Sebago in their retirement years.

She is survived by her children, Wendy Cox and John Mains of Naples, Darrell Cox and Tracy of Sebago, and Jeffrey Cox and Cindy of Sebago; four grandchildren, Justin Cox and his wife Bethany and great-grandson Jace, all of Naples, Aaron Cox, Lauren Cox and Jared Cox, all of Sebago; brothers, Brian Reinhard and Donald Reinhard of Naples, Marvin Reinhard of Baldwin and sister, Marilyn Wormwood of Westbrook. She was predeceased by her husband Richard and her parents.

A funeral service will be held at 10 a.m., on Saturday, July 8, 2017, at the North Sebago United Methodist Church. Refreshments will be served immediately after the service. Burial will be private.

Arrangements are made by Hall Funeral Home in Casco. Online condolences may be left for the family at hallfuneralhome.net
