Airman Assists First Responders KITTERY It was late in the afternoon on the Saturday of February Drill, and Major Clint Reed of the 265th Combat Communications Squadron was just leaving his office. The Mount Desert Island native had hung around a little late to go over some details with his officers, but was anxious to be headed south towards his family’s home in Kittery. “I decided, after talking with my family, that we would all meet at a restaurant in Kittery near our home to grab some dinner,” Reed said, leaning back in his chair. Reed’s family had arrived at the restaurant just before him, and when they saw him drive up, they headed inside to get a table. “I parked my car and started walking up,” Reed said. “As
Major Clint Reed of the 265th Combat Communications Squadron made the Maine Air National Guard proud in performing CPR on a woman in Kittery last weekend.
I walked past the small bakery that’s directly beside the restaurant, a woman comes out and says, ‘Does anyone know CPR?’” Reed quickened his pace and covered the 30-40 yards to
the bakery only to find an elderly woman lying prostrate on the ground just inside the door of the bakery. Reed carefully entered the bakery and a bystander told him that the woman had simply dropped to the ground very suddenly. The bystander was seated on the floor next to the victim, holding her hand. “I asked her how long [the victim] had been down, “Reed recalls. “She told me it had only been a minute or two, but I could almost immediately see that [the victim] was not breathing and I was unable to locate a pulse.” Amongst the bystanders was a woman who identified herself as the victim’s daughter, and Reed quickly motioned for her and the rest of those assemSee REED page 20...

help raise funds to end childhood hunger. Featuring chef James Walter of Five-O, James Beard Awardwinning chef Rob Evans of Duckfat, and chef Derek Bissonette from the White Barn Inn, all proceeds raised from the evening will support Share Our Strength’s efforts to end childhood hunger in America. The event will include a cocktail reception, an auction and a multi-course dinner developed and prepared by Walter, Evans and Bissonette. This evening marks the first time the three chefs have collaborated exclusively on a dinner. “Rob was instrumental in launching Share Our Strength’s efforts in Maine nine years ago,” said John Woods, who coordinates Share Our Strength’s activities in Maine. “We are so very grateful for these three talented chefs to come and share their time and talent to help raise funds that will be used to connect children across Maine struggling with hunger with the nutritious food they need.”
“Dining at Five-O, Duckfat or The White Barn Inn is a singular experience. To have all three chefs together in the same kitchen on the same night will be something special,” noted Five-O President Jeff Porter. One in five children in this country struggles with hunger, including more than 62,000 kids in Maine. However this is a solvable problem. Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign is ending childhood hunger in this nation by ensuring all kids get the healthy food they need every day by connecting them to nutrition programs like school breakfast and summer meals and by teaching families how to cook healthy, affordable meals at home. “In a nation as rich as ours there is no place for childhood

Nonprofit Wins First Innovation Prize at Yale School of Forestry SOUTH BERWICK An innovative nonprofit founded by a South Berwick man has been recognized with a prestigious first-time award from Yale University for its successful work protecting tropical forests while creating an income for threatened rural communities in Central and South America. GreenWood, founded by South Berwick resident Scott Landis, and its Honduran counterpart, Fundación Madera Verde, received the first-ever Innovation Prize from the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies. Landis also founded Madera Verde, but it
is now an independent Honduran nonprofit. The $5,000 prize was awarded by an international panel of judges based on a joint presentation by the two partners at the 20th Annual International Society of Tropical Foresters Conference, held Jan. 30 to Feb. 1 at Yale. The Yale prize recognizes GreenWood’s development of a “Green Broker Network” - a unique, entrepreneurial approach to forest conservation that cultivates sustainable business relationships between rural forest producers in Central and South America
