Adam and his family can see, firsthand, the overwhelming amount
of support they have behind them. Close friends Cody St. Clair,
Tyler McCrady and Colin have all donated blood to Adam to help
further progress his recovery. Adam is known as such a happy
individual among his peers. The impact this horrific accident
has had on our community is so substantial; Tyler tweeted, I just
keep calling Adams phone to hear his voice on his voicemail
Just pick up buddy so I dont gotta keep doing this Please So
many of Adams friends are eager to show him their support that
every day he maxes out the number of visitors he can have.
Finally, on Saturday, after being in a medically induced coma
for 24 hours, Adam spoke. He has battled through three tough
surgeries so far, the most recent being on Monday, all of which
have reportedly gone as well as they could. He was moved from
the ICU to the orthopedics wing on Tuesday, beginning his long
road to recovery. Adam may not be able to walk on his own in
the near future, but that will not stop his spirit from continuing to
impact the community in the positive and gracious way it always
has.
A GoFundMe page called Pray For Adam was started here:
https://www.gofundme.com/2kf5u5j8 by good friend Kimberly
Martin, to help the family pay for Adams care, and anything
related to Adams recovery. After just one day of being open,
over 150 people had donated well over $11,000 to Adam and the
Hayward family, and his page had already been shared over 1,000
times on social media. This is a simple way to show your support
to the Haywards in their time of need - every little bit helps. Please
find it in your heart to donate anything you can spare for this
wonderful family, through the link above. Letters and cards can

home on this site from Zachariah Hardy and, just a few years
before this postcard, replaced it with this house which was
modern for that time. John Gillis, and later his estate, owned
much of the land in the area of Central, Gillis and Fulton
Streets. Following the passing of their parents, Georgina and
Helen continued to live here. Helen passed at the age of 78
and Hanna Georgina at the age of 77; both passing on the
same day in 1925 as they became victims in a double murder
which occurred in their home. Their funeral service was
held at the Congregational Church on Central Street with an
atmosphere of simplicity, reverence and sadness.
By 1934, this was home to Michael and Sophie Stanapedos.
Michael passed in the late 1960s and Sophie continued to live
here until the 1980s. In 1983 it was purchased from Sophies
estate by John Sarris and remodeled into an office building
appropriately called Sophies Place.
The house on the left of Central at the corner with Gillis
Street has been a Connell Family home for over 75 years.
Occupied by Frank and Mary Connell, it is now owned by the
family of his son, Philip J. and his wife, Lucille.
This postcard is from my private collection, being mailed to
my great-grandmother in 1907. It will soon be on file at the
Historical Society.

Kudos to Editor-in-Chief
for Excellent Media Exposure to
Aug. 13 Art Show
The members of the Litchfield Historical Society wish
to extend our deep appreciation to Editor-In-Chief,
Len Lathrop, for the extensive pre-event publicity the
Hudson~Litchfield News provided in the weeks leading
up to our Aug. 13 Art Show. Attendance was excellent,
given the daunting heat, and many remarked upon
having seen the articles Publisher Lathrop edited.
This past weeks wrap-up article and accompanying
pictures gave those who were unable to attend a sense of
what had transpired, along with the HLN website review
and accompanying pictures.
Attention to small town events, whatever the venue, is
never overlooked by Len. We are fortunate to have him
as a local publisher, and as a friend to all things Litchfield
and Hudson.
Gail Barringer, Litchfield
Thumbs down
HLN has chosen a new direction for printing their
thumbs column, and that will effectively makes this the
last uncensored thumbs comment.
So here is another view, before the newspaper evolves
into another bias Candyland theme park. It seems to be
the American Evolution though, so I want to ask every
reader just one question. Are you always happy with
what you see around you?
It is unfortunate that a lot of people have lost the
ability to communicate, whether its looking at each
other in the eye while talking, or as it is soon to be in
this case, through the press. It is unfortunate that the
living being standing right in front of you, takes an easy
second place to your phone. Thumbs Down to that !
If HLN did not allow their submissions for print to be
incognito, then we all would correct the wording of our
comments ourselves, and would reduce the Thumbtacks.
It is unfortunate that HLN will only further our
divide, since they are convinced that printing only happy
thoughts will be beneficial to a healthy community.
Keith Potter, Litchfield
Whos Fighting
for These Victims?
Theres rarely anything that gets me
enraged. I dont really care about most of the
stuff that happens today. Its over-discussed
and over-analyzed by people who dont have
lives. However, this topic does not get talked
about enough, and it is one of the very few
things that I genuinely get really upset about.
Im a huge fan of documentaries. I find
them fascinating and informative. About a
year ago I watched a documentary called
The Invisible War. I highly recommend
watching it. It came
out in 2013 and it won
numerous awards,
including a 2014 Emmy
for Best Documentary,
a 2013 Emmy award
for Outstanding
Investigative Journalism
- Long Form, as well as
a few others.
Watching this
documentary literally
made me sick to my stomach. It was about
women who got raped while serving our
country. Ive never heard of this problem
before. Its not that I didnt believe that it
existed, it just wasnt a thought that had ever
crossed my mind. I had never seen any news
stories about it, which is weird, because even
a year ago I thought that I was pretty wellinformed. After some research I realized that
I wasnt as informed as I thought. It turns out
that there are a lot of major issues that are
just not discussed in the media; so, I feel as
though its part of my job to draw attention to
these types of issues.
A good number of sexual assault victims
in the military are male, not just female.
Many sexual assault cases go unreported.
Its difficult to get proper statistics because
both male and female victims often will not
report the assault. According to defense.gov
the number of sexual assault victims in the
army in the year 2014 was 20,300. In 2013
about 62 percent of women reported the
sexual assault. Social retaliation accounted
for the largest form of perceived retribution,
but 32 percent said they faced professional
retaliation and 35 percent experienced an
adverse administrative event after reporting
an incident, according to defense.gov.
Any percent of professional retaliation is
unacceptable, and 32% is way too high
when reporting a sexual assault case.
The worst part was if the woman who
was raped by a fellow soldier reported it
and had the rape kit done, that evidence
would suddenly become lost. The male
soldier would get away with rape. Thats
disgusting and thats a shame. These men
and women are serving our country, and to
treat them that way is one of Americas dirty
little secrets. I do support our troops, and I
am thankful for all the good that they have
done, but just because one wears a soldiers
uniform should not excuse them from raping
a fellow soldier.
Many times if a woman tries to pursue
a case against a fellow officer, especially
a superior, she could be the one facing
repercussions. Seriously? Thats terrible.
Not only is the woman the one who got
raped, but if she goes forward with the claim,
its a very real possibility that she is the one
who will get in trouble, not the man. Im
sorry, but I thought this was America, not
the Middle East? Why should these women,
fighting for our freedom, be subjected to
sexual harassment and sexual assault, and
then subjected to more pain when they try
to charge their attacker? Its just a really big

The Fox loves football, and for that all
sports, but the time and energy spent on the
hiring issue was eye opening. Resolution
came when the teachers union president
signed a memorandum of understanding
during the middle of the week that maybe
put the hiring of football coaches at Alvirne
on the fieldbut should it have? The Fox
has questions: 1) Why is the number of
coaches, and what they get paid, part of the
Hudson teacher contract? 2) This teachers
contract passed last
March and starts
with the beginning
of the 2016-2017
school year and
lasts for five years,
so the pot of money
to pay coaches is
set for five years
and will remain
the same? 3)
Based on the list
of coaches and
their compensation
amounting to a
certain sum of money, did the school board
vote to allow the Alvirne principal and
Athletic Director to do what they want
as long as they dont exceed that bottom
line? 4) Do the shareholders/taxpayers
get to vote (rhetorical)? 5) How can you
have staff being paid who are not teachers
or members of the union? 6) The school
board member who worked on the teacher
contract did not even know about these
attachments. She said she was not aware
at the last meeting, and she proclaims she
doesnt like the amount of money spent on
sports as compared to the arts. 7) Does this
all mean that, if an activity is not wanted
by the students
and the club is
disbanded, those
funds can be
used for a new
activity?

Amendment I:
Freedom of Religion, Speech,
Press, Assembly and Petition
Passed by Congress Sept. 25, 1789. Ratified Dec. 15, 1791. The
first 10 amendments form the Bill of Rights
Congress shall make no law respecting an
establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech,
or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to
assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress
of grievances.
With that definition in your brain, let me say, it is
not that your Hudson~Litchfield News wants to control
anything that people want to say, but understand that we
are responsible for your words when we print them, or
maybe we wont be, but the cost of lawsuits is starting
for a small paper and the pockets are just not as deep
as they were almost 35 years ago when the prior owner,
Fidel Bernasconi, started the thumbs up and/or down
column. Yes we are continually being sued or threaten
to be sued for comments that are anonymous; and after
almost 16 years of being the gatekeeper of thumbs, there
are things you dont see: the same person every week
calling in seven to 10 thumbs about the same thing or
a restaurant owner threatening to meet me in the office
parking lot to show me that I am a punk; a Litchfield
public service administrator whose lawyer put us on
notice that if his clients name or a reference to his client
is made, that we will be in court. Yes we have a case
pending in Hillsborough Superior Court from a school
board member in Windham; the paper has expended
$5K already to get ready for this case. Do you want to
know about the families who are having a nasty divorce
and that all men are scum?
If you have a problem, make your submission to the
paper as a letter to the editor, then you are responsible
for what you are saying; put your name to it. In 16 years
I have printed every letter from readers from the town
where we send papers and will continue that policy.
And in closing, Mr. Corey King, about your Facebook
postings:
Showing only thumbs up comments in your
thumbs up, thumbs down section starting in
September,
defeats the
purpose. I
thought
you were a
fair minded
publication. I no longer think so based upon this move
and youre all about me section from Nicole. Youre
just another liberal rag that wants to suppress the
opposing view with the power of your podium. Well
done ... We are well on our way to a communist society.
And you are just helping it along under the guise of
being positive. Hypocrites!
Your second posting is about the same, but Ill let
people read: Only printing thumbs up comments in
your thumbs up thumbs down section defeats the
purpose. We need opposing views. I thought you
were a fair publication, but no longer think that with
this along with your bratty all about me section. You
are just another liberal rag spreading your hypocritical
propaganda. You are contributing to the rot of our
culture.
While I respect your name being on your Facebook
post, your letter to the editor will always be printed - lets
see how the 60 day trial goes - so far there have been
four positive comments and two negative ones, and a
visitor to the office where we had a great discussion,
but he knows I am wrong and a salute to Mr. Potter who
put his name on his comment, which is in this weeks
letters.
Disagree with what I do as the publisher and we can
discuss it, but right now the buck stops with me. Now if
you want to be the publisher for a day (that really cant
happen), but if you want to be
the publisher forever I have
a piece of paper on my desk
with a number on it.

change.
Langlais asked about the town side; she offered
that she didnt know water, sewer and current state
of the police station. She thought that the students
should help on the town side; they live here and
early involvement could keep them here as Hudson
residents when they are adults.
Coutu mentioned that it pained him to say, on
the town side, that we are going to the voters again
for a Lowell Road Fire Station to replace the Burn
Hill Station. It is a public safety issue and Coutu
explained why the new station is important and
why it is a great plan. He feels it is a matter of
educating the voters. Fire stations are on Main
Street in every town and in Hudson that is Lowell
Road.
Coutu asked about a yer through the school
system, as at last weeks selectmens meeting, they
saw the Boy Scouts looking for help to get a yer
into the school. Lavoie explained the decision was
made to end a lawsuit.
Milbouer talked about cross-promoting using
social media . She felt the town needs a Facebook
site, which Coutu stated the town has. She wants
to cross selectmen and school board sites and use
Survey Monkey - she thinks that e-mails are more
important than a take-home yer.
Coutu mentioned that is a piece of the puzzle
that the town can do better than they have.
Milbouer mentioned that the school board has
a great reach to the parents and their e-mail
addresses.
Another topic Coutu mentioned that sewer and
water issued and talked about the warrant questions
are asked to both utility users and non users, while
the change or service while only the service users
pay the tab . The issue about the space problems
at the police station was mentioned; demands
on police and fire are growing as the community
grows. That conversation led to the need for a new
municipal complex and why it is needed.
Coutu would like the town and school boards
to join together for a unified IT staffing and a
centralized purchasing agent for both boards.
Can we have a student government day?
Students will replace the town government for a
day, including a selectmen meeting suggested.
Milbouer wanted to know if the Board of Selectmen
could have a student on their board?
While Langlais drew the meeting to a close,
everyone thanked each other for being there and
hoped many of the things discussed could be put
into practice. The next meeting might not happen
until after budget season.
A postscript that must be noted: while everyone
worked together on camera, there was quite the
conversation afterwards in the parking lot with
some hurt feelings from members of both boards.
As tough of a job it is for those volunteers to put
their hearts and souls into their involvement with
these boards and then to be rebutted by their own
members, it must be upsetting.
HCTV has edited the tape of the meeting and has
it playing on channel 21 and 22.

Li Ying and I will be hosting two foreign students for the school
year. The boys will be arriving this week and there will be lots
to do to get them settled in and set up with school. That is why
we have decided not to have Dinners this weekend (Aug. 26 &
27), With so much to do, we feel we will not be giving 100% to
the dinner menu for lack of time. Dinners will resume again
early September.
We will still have our Breakfast and Lunch as usual
so come on by and see us.
Thank you for your understanding.

A+ Ideas for Supporting Classroom Learning
(BPT) - Proud parents across the country are
watching their children head back to the classroom for another exciting school year. The knowledge they gain in class will help set them on a
path to success. However, learning shouldnt stop
when the school bell rings at the end of the day.
Education should be a driving factor of family life, says Michelle Cote, founder of Bricks
4 Kidz, an award-winning summer camp and
after-school program. Parents hold the key to a
childs success by supporting classroom learning
and extending educational efforts to the home
and beyond.
Cote offers simple ideas for parents to help support school lessons and instill a lifelong love of
learning in their children.
Know the teacher: Teachers spend as much
time in a week with your kids as you do. Build
a relationship with them by sending check-in
emails, attending conferences and volunteering. Be proactive about asking where your child
excels and what areas they may need additional
help.
Facilitate homework: Encourage good study
habits by creating a comfortable homework space
with adequate supplies and few distractions. Be
an active partner in your childs homework and
assist when needed. Brainstorm project ideas,
answer questions and quiz kids before tests.
Practice school lessons: With a fun, no-pressure approach, go over
what your children learn in school. Have a conversation each day
about what they learned, liked and loathed. Then go over important
lessons to help your child better understand the material.
Connect lessons to life: One of the best ways to help kids under-
stand classroom lessons is to connect the material to everyday experiences. Practice fractions while cooking. Chat about biology while
gardening. Head to the beach to talk about marine habitats and why
the tide changes.
Choose enriching activities: Select after-school activities that
emphasize cognitive development while building self-esteem in a

Fantastic fats
Did you know the brain
is about 60 percent fat? That
means when your kids eat
healthy fats, it can support brain
function. Pack snacks with
nuts, seeds and avocado. When
cooking, replace unhealthy
hydrogenated oils with healthier
options such as extra-virgin olive oil or coconut
oil. Eat more meals with cold-water fish like
salmon to get more omega-3 essential fats, which
play an integral role in promoting cellular health
and brain development.

Class Action Law Suit Filed
by Len Lathrop
Are we so foolish to think that no one doesnt know what
a concussion is, with all the media information out there and
especially the controversies currently coming out of pro football?
The Mayo Clinic defines it as A concussion is a traumatic
brain injury that alters the way your brain functions. Effects are
usually temporary but can include headaches and problems with
concentration, memory, balance and coordination. Although
concussions usually are caused by a blow to the head, they can also
occur when the head and upper body are violently shaken. These
injuries can cause a loss of consciousness, but most concussions
do not. Because of this, some people have concussions and dont
realize it.
Concussions are somewhat common, particularly if you play
a contact sport, such as football. But every concussion injures
your brain to some extent. This injury needs time and rest to heal
properly. Most concussive traumatic brain injuries are mild, and
people usually recover fully.
Mayo Clinic is not really close to Hudson but their definition was
first on the web, and this story is about the efforts underway to help
treat the problem here in Hudson and across the state. When you
break your arm, you have a lot of pain, an x-ray is taken and the

Local artist Jason DeBow had an art exhibit at the Rodgers Memorial Library last Tuesday, Aug. 16.
Many people came to support the Hudson native and current resident artist. He had about 40 different
pieces on display at the library. DeBow creates watercolor-based paintings. He fell in love with colors
so about five years ago he decided to pursue his dreams about becoming an artist. He soon became
very serious in his art and started painting a little bit every day. DeBow paints a variety of things such as
nature, portraits, animals, and more.
DeBow is an Alvirne graduate and the only art classes he took were when he was a student at Alvirne.
DeBow said that he and his friend would goof off all week in art class and yet somehow would turn in a
great project; the teachers would be upset because they were forced to give him an A. DeBow has lived
in a few places such as Arizona and California but has found himself back in Hudson.
The band Cow Hampshire Folk played music during the art show. The band is from Manchester and
plays throughout southern New Hampshire. You can find them on Facebook and look them up on
YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/user/CowHampshireFolk.
If you are interested in purchasing one of DeBows works or having him do a portrait you can find him
on Facebook.

it had almost everything you can think of, well
beyond the big hair and the catchy tunes of the
80s. Watching young thespians perform songs
and have lines that marked the era before they
were even born was entertaining, still they never
took you so far away from the theme of As You
Like It that you forgot the Shakespeare libretto.
As You Like Its Orlando, played by Tyler
Gagnon, fights with his older brother, Oliver,
portrayed by Bradley Garcia, over their fathers
inheritance. After Oliver tries to have professional
wrestler Charles, Joe Lavoie in the real world, kill
Orlando, Orlando turns the tables and defeats his
sibling but has to leave the kingdom. With more
family issues Duke Frederick, played by Madalyn
Persons-Cutting, sees her daughter Celia (Isabel
Beakey) about to be banished, she disguises
herself as a man as she leaves her cousin Rosalind
who becomes Ganymede, played by Cassie
Shelley.
Their travels and the people they met and fell
in love with showcased all 15 student actors and
their talents. Even the famous 1980s whipped
cream zit skit was there (Remember John Belushi
in Animal House?).
Director Denis called the production a team
effort and thanked everyone involved for making
it absolutely fabulouslike, totally fabulous!
Other actors were Hayli Ruiter as Adam; Alyson
Zaker as Le Beau; Casey Wiliamson a Touchstone;
Georgie Gentile as Audrey; Curtis Klemme as
Jacques; Dena Hoffman as Lord Martext; Corinne
Prestia as Phebe; Jessica Taylor as Jaques de Boys;
and Dahlia Thibeault as Dennis. Some of the
actors even did double duty as crew members.
Crew members were as follows: Jennifer
LaFrance as tech director; Corinne Prestia as
choreographer; Marianne Hedges with costume

A Time of Change
by Lynne Ober
When former Hudson School
Superintendent Bryan Lane gave his
resignation, the Hudson School Board
was already searching for a new Assistant
Superintendent as Dr. Phyllis Schlichter had
previously resigned.
Phyllis Schlichter and her husband, Bo
Schlichter, former Litchfield principal, are
one of New Hampshires education power
couples. Both love students and working
with students, but both were seeking other
opportunities. Bo has been retired for five
years and Phyllis credits him with making
working easier for her. If something needs
to be done in the house, Bo can take care
of it. She talked about the many ways that
having him at home allowed her to pursue a
more complex and time-consuming career in
education.
Im certified as a Reading Specialist, a
Speech Pathologist, an Audiologist, as well
as an administrator and superintendent,
she explained. When asked what her plans
were when she resigned, she admitted that
she didnt have specific plans other than the
desire to be able to spend the summers with
her two young granddaughters, who live in
North Carolina. It was impossible to take the
summer off with the Assistant Superintendent
position and even more so now that Im the
Interim Superintendent. I think I will work,
but in a position that gives me summers off.
When Lane resigned Phyllis Schlichter
agreed to stay for a year as Interim
Superintendent. She noted this was a
relatively easy transition as she already
knew staff and parents in the district. I
had established relationships and although
I currently have a different level of
responsibility, I knew what needed to be
done. Schlichter said the good thing about
the district is working with so many talented
staff. If I dont know something, I can easily
find someone who does know the answer,
she smiled.
Although most things are set for the
beginning of the school year, Schlichter
said they were still getting a number of late
student registrations. Approximately 230
first graders and 150 kindergarten students
have registered, with more parents coming in
each day. Overall Hudson pupil enrollment
continues to go down.
When asked why school district staff was
not reduced with the smaller number of
pupils, Schlichter said that more opportunities
were being offered to students and cited
Project Lead which begins pre-engineering for
middle school students. This makes it easier
for them to transfer into some of our high
school programs.
But thats not the only reason cited.
Schlichter said that many students are not
as well equipped to enter school as they
were five years ago. One of the missing
pieces is parents sitting and reading with
children prior to the start of kindergarten.
That, coupled with more expectations for
