Berries, Berries and More Berries

I hate to be the one to repeat gossip, but I understand that Monadnock Berries will be at the Farmer’s Market today, (7/5) for the first time.  With them they are bringing, raspberries, red currants, gooseberries and even a few blueberries.  I heard that they will also have some berry plants for those who wish to start their own.  Better get there early because I plan to! – Lil

 

Y-Aspire has More Good News

Steve Fortier has issued this press release.  The Bingamans continue to have a positive impact on our community and its youth.  Thanks, Chuck and Sue. – Lil

Last month, Meeting Waters YMCA Executive Director Steve Fortier and Walpole Attendance Area Principal Sam Jacobs announced a new partnership between the two organizations. Starting on the first day of the 2013-14 school year, Meeting Waters YMCA’s after-school program, Y-ASPIRE, will serve the youth and families of the three Walpole elementary schools.

Community support was quick to follow. Just before moving to California, Sue and Chuck Bingaman offered their support to MWYMCA Board members Diane Myers-Miller and Antonia Andreoli to help the program get off to a strong start. Together, the four organized a fundraising campaign to secure some seed funding for scholarships and supplies. While that outreach continues, the initial response from the Walpole Foundation, the Bingamans and MWYMCA Board and staff members was so strong, Meeting Waters YMCA’s Board of Directors has decided to use some of the community support to lower program fees.

“New Hampshire’s ‘Child Care Scholarship Program,’ the subsidy program that uses federal dollars to support NH parents in accessing quality child care programs provides significantly less support compared to Vermont’s program,” explains Fortier.  “So, the initiative of Chuck, Sue, Diane and Antonia and the response from the Walpole Foundation and others is essential to us ensuring that all Walpole youth have access to our high-quality after-school program.”

Meeting Waters YMCA has used that support to subsidize a ten-percent discount on the program fees for the Walpole program. “This will leave a very small co-pay for parents on the upper end of the scale of the state Child Care Scholarship Program,” Fortier adds. “It makes the program even more accessible to all parents.”

The Y-ASPIRE program runs from the close of school until 6:15 for each of the 180 school days. It also runs for full days on all school vacations and most holidays, as well as for half-days on teacher in-service and other early release days. In all, the program operates for over 210 days between the first day of school and the last.

Each day of a Y-ASPIRE program includes physical activity and nutritious snack, both of which meet stringent Healthy Eating and Physical Activity national standards; assisted study time and a cooperative group project centered around monthly themes such as Different But the Same; Our Community; and Kindness and Justice. Through various activities, students in Y-ASPIRE develop “life skills” such as cooperation, problem-solving, group decision-making and leadership. They also learn more about themselves, their community and their world. Service learning projects benefit other community agencies as well as the ASPIRE participants. Monthly family events focus on family strengthening and health.

The new program in Walpole will be based in the multi-purpose room at Walpole Primary School. Bussing will be provided from North Walpole School and Y-ASPIRE staff will walk Walpole Elementary students to the Primary School each day.

For more information about Y-ASPIRE, visit http://www.meetingwatersymca.org or call their main office at (802) 463-4769.

Founded in 1895, Meeting Waters YMCA is a charitable (501-c-3), social service organization serving the Brattleboro, Bellows Falls, Springfield and Fall Mountain regions. It strengthens the foundations of community through youth development, healthy living, social responsibility and family strengthening.

Up-date on their Westward Journey

Received this picture from Sue Bingaman.  At least we know they got this far!  She indicated that it is a long way to California.  Perhaps she should have paid more attention to the Grade 5 teacher who taught her about the USA.  –  Lil

Walpole Recreation Center

There was a request for the pool hours, especially for adult swim.  It isn’t easy to find them but on Facebook I learned that Adult Swim is from 11:30-12:30 and 4:30-5:30.  General Swim is 12:30-4:30.  You can also call the pool, 756-3496, to verify this. – Lil DeCoste

Minutes of the Selectboard – 6/20/13

TOWN OF WALPOLE
MEETING OF THE SELECTBOARD
JUNE 20, 2013

CALL TO ORDER: Mr. Aldrich called the meeting to order at 3:48 PM in the Walpole Town Hall with three people present in the audience.
These are unapproved Minutes.
PUBLIC BUSINESS:
JIM TERRELL: Mr. Terrell reported that the new one ton truck has arrived. It was sent out today to have the Viking body put on. He talked to the person working on the new park area about a crosswalk and he determined that there is enough site distance therefore a designated crosswalk should work out well. Road paving will start on July 1st. The sidewalk project was started in North Walpole. Some maple trees that are dying are being taken down on Main Street in North Walpole and next year the sidewalk in that area will be replaced.
Bruce Russell requested permission to carry over one week of vacation time. The Selectboard approved this request. Mr. Rau is on vacation this week and Mr. Terrell will be on vacation next week. Mike Simonds will be the head man starting on Monday. He will have Mr. Terrell’s cell phone so he can be in touch with Mr. Rau and/or highway crew.
Mr. Terrell met with the representative from FEMA and worked out the figures on the “NEMO” storm. The Town spent $32,652; hopefully, they will be reimbursed 75% or approximately $24,489.
Mr. Terrell received a call inquiring about the status of the 3rd NH Turnpike near the intersection of Stage Road and County Road. He did some research and has determined that the little section of lawn in front of the house was never discontinued. The Town accepted the road back in the 1800s. Mr. Aldrich explained that he would not be in favor of discontinuing any portion of Town roads as they are usually a Town asset but this would just be to clean-up that small section of lawn. The Highway Department does not have an issue with discontinuing it therefore Mr. Terrell will write a Warrant Article to bring before the voters at the next Annual Town Meeting.

CALL TO ORDER: Mrs. Teague called the meeting to order at 7:03 PM in the Walpole Town Hall with four people present in the audience.
These are unapproved Minutes.
PUBLIC BUSINESS:
PAUL COLBURN: Mr. Colburn distributed copies of monthly reports on “Dairy Weight Report and 5 Year to Date Comparison” and the “2013 Summary Monthly Comparison 4th Month Ending April 30, 2013”. Many items are down slightly. He reported that they continue to work on the George Watkins Memorial Garden. He thanked the Highway Department for putting surpac around the burn pit; they built it back up. Mr. Colburn felt they should look into re-building the metal parts at the burn pit as the State has not yet set a date when the rules will be changed. The employees and Mr. Colburn went to the Recycling Conference. One of the items discussed at the conference was the fact that there is a new product that they will begin to collect; it is gable cartons that can be put in with the mixed paper. The building was built for the glass crusher but they need a door. LaValley’s donated some insulation and Matt’s Painting and Drywall donated sheetrock. Last month they shipped a load of cardboard, mixed metals and two loads of redeemable containers. Mr. Colburn will be visiting the Chesterfield Recycling Center on a Wednesday in the near future.
POLICE CHIEF MICHAEL PAQUETTE: Chief Paquette distributed copies of his Monthly Activity Report for May 2013. There were 10 Arrests; 3 Traffic Crashes; 13 Incidents; and 111 Calls for Help. The department is currently working on numerous investigations. Chief Paquette has sent two officers to become forensic interviewers as well as rifle instructors and armors. They continue to utilize the Radar Traffic Grant to combat speeders on State roads. He was proud to announce that a Walpole Officer instructed their first D.A.R.E. program at the Walpole Junior High as the students graduated the program on June 11th, 2013. It was a great group of kids and they took the program seriously.
Chief Paquette advised that the front deck on the Police Station was refurbished except for the staining. The new cruiser will be here in 2-to-3 weeks but it will be the end of July before it is on the road as the lights and other equipment will need to be installed. The county is trying to repair the radio reception by making changes on the repeaters. Chief Paquette would like to buy one of the new radios in the fall and a second one next year for the cruisers. It is a safety issue for better communication. The Selectboard approved some vacation time for Chief Paquette.
