Expires 7/13/2014
by S. Aaron Shamshoyan
A grant from the Lancaster Fund will help cover the cost to bring
a large memorial to Salem, paying tribute to fallen soldiers.
Selectmen approved the request Monday for $2,500 by the
Salem Veterans Association, which is working to raise nearly
$18,000 and bring a Vietnam Memorial replica wall to Grant Field.
Were expecting a very, very large turnout, said Douglas
Micklon, Salem Veterans Association president.
Mickon said the 300-foot-long wall will arrive by truck October
15, and assembly will take place the following day.
On October 15, were planning to have the wall at the rest area
on 93 North in Salem, he said, adding a police escort would lead
the wall to Grant Field.
The memorial, an 80 percent scale replica of the one in
Washington, includes police, re, World War I, and World War II
tributes.
Were trying to make this a very large town event, Micklon
said, adding the memorial will be open to visitors 24 hours a day.
Selectmens Chair Patrick Hargreaves excused himself from
the board along with Selectman Stephen Campbell, as they are
involved with the association. Hargreaves initiated the discussion
about bringing the memorial to town, and has taken a lead in the
fundraising efforts.
A grant of this type is for a special initiative, special project,
said Selectman James Keller. This is very much once in a
lifetime.
Micklon said the wall offered an opportunity for people to see
a powerful memorial who may not be able to make the trip to
Washington. Its very emotional, he said.
Selectmen approved the request on the heels of another
proposal coming last week which was denied for not meeting
withdrawal requirements.
A request from Salem Family Resources - Success by 6 was
ultimately rejected when selectmen determined the money
would be used as part of the operating budget, which is against
guidelines.
The board had previously determined monies would only be
used for special projects beneting the community.

Cover Costs for
Memorial Replica
Additional State Funds
for School Renovation
will Save Taxpayers
$3 Million
by S. Aaron Shamshoyan
An additional $3 million from the state will help offset the cost to
renovate Salem High School, reducing the impact on residents.
Originally scheduled to receive $10.77 million to cover about
62 percent of the renovation costs to the Career and Technical
Education Center, the district will now receive a 75-percent match
from the state.
We learned last week there was a successful vote of HB 1350,
Salem Superintendent Michael Delahanty said, adding a failed vote
in Plymouth meant more money was available for Salem.
As a regional school, other communities had to support the
bond, he said, noting Ashland opposed the project. Were the
only district thats getting money right now.
Prior to Plymouth rejecting a renovation, Whiteeld voted down
a proposed project. Schools are only eligible for the funding every
23 years.
The money wont mean a larger project, but a reduction to
the tax impact. Delahanty said originally the project would cost
taxpayers about $64.8 million and now the cost will be just over
$61 million.
We cannot exceed the $74.7 million that the town has
appropriated for the project, Delahanty said.
But exactly how the additional funds will be used has not yet
been determined.
Delahanty suggested using the $3 million to offset the amount
needed in the third-year bond in 2017, saying the anticipated
interest would be higher than the rst two years. He said reducing
the third bond by that amount would lead to an additional $4.3
million in savings from interest.
The current plan calls for three bonds of about $21 million to be
withdrawn from January 2015 through 2017.
Dover will be eligible to receive funding from the state for a
CTE renovation in 2015, but awarding of those monies would not
impact Salem.
Delahanty praised Senator Chuck Morse for his efforts in getting
the bill passed.
He [Morse] had to use some persuasion and some strong
understanding of legislation, Delahanty told school board
members Tuesday.
Board members will determine this fall how to best distribute the
additional funds. Renovation of the building is projected to start in
the summer of 2015.

Units from the Salem Fire
Department held training exercises at
the buildings of 41 Main Street that
are scheduled for demolition. The
buildings are owned by Joe Faro of
Tuscan Kitchen who generously offered
them to the town for training. The re
and police departments will be doing
training at this site until the owners
contractors raze the buildings.
Members of ladder 1 under the
command of Lieutenant Brian Murray
trained on opening the roof of a
building. The reman used the ladder
truck, chain saws, and axes to make
their way through the roof of the
building. In the case of a real re,
opening a hole in the roof would be
done to exhaust smoke and heat from
the building.
Lt. Murray stated that this building is
an example of an older building made
with solid wood studs. Newer buildings, built with
manmade materials, can be more hazardous due the
volatility of the products used. Much of the material
is made with glue-like material that can actually
melt causing toxic fumes build to up inside of the
building. The man made materials also become less
stable than solid wood building materials which
often will be the cause of a roof or wall collapse
during a re.
Whenever buildings are erected or updated the
re department always attempts to take a tour of the
building in order to get a sense of what the building
is made of and of the basic layout of the building.
Lt. Murray stated that it would be a good idea to
contact the re department whenever putting up
a new building. The tour can help save lives and
property in the case of a re or other emergency
situation.

Salem Lions Club
Walk for Hunger Tops $10K
by Bob Gibbs
The Salem Lions Club reached
its goal of raising more than
$10,000 through its 1K Walk for
Hunger. The money will support
the food pantries overseen by four
Salem churches. The churches
benetting from the fundraiser are
The Triumphant Cross Lutheran
Church, St. Josephs Church, St.
Marys and the Pleasant Street
Methodist Church.
Walkers from the four churches,
as well as the Rockingham
Christian Church and Salem High
School Honor Society, all took
part in the walk that began at the
Pleasant Street Church went to
the Fisk school and returned to
Pleasant Street. Following the
walk, the Lions Club provided
food and drinks.
The walk began with a short
speech from Kay Panciocco,
a Pleasant Street Church food
pantry volunteer for more than 20
years. Ms. Panciocco said she has
loved every minute of the time
she has spent at the food pantry,
helping those that need the help
of others. Joining the group of
walkers were Father Tom Frink of
St. Mary and St. Josephs Church,
and Salem State Representative
Bob Elliott.
Leading the group of Lions
in this fundraiser were Lion
Manny Silva, and Lioness
Phyllis Marchulaitis who
were credited with doing an
outstanding job, as did all the
members of the club who gave
of their time, money and of
themselves.

Pleasant Street United Methodist Church
The fundraising campaign on behalf of the Food
for the Hungry Food Pantry of the Pleasant Street
United Methodist Church to raise funds for a new
Hope Center building has received a major boost
through a generous donation from Pentucket
Bank. Bank President and Chief Executive Ofcer
Scott Cote was on hand to accept the thanks of
members of the Food for the Hungry food pantry
which will be occupying the proposed new
building to be constructed on the church property
at 8 Pleasant Street in Salem.
The Food for the Hungry Food Pantry has been
in operation for many years, and serves over 50
families weekly, providing food and personal care
items to those in need. The pantry is operated by
volunteer members from the church as well as the
greater Salem community. In 2013 the Food for
the Hungry Food Pantry received a
Pillar award from the Greater Salem Chamber of
Commerce for outstanding community work by a
non-prot entity.
The food pantry currently operates from
space within the Pleasant Street United
Methodist Church building. In 2012 plans
were developed to construct a new building to
better accommodate the pantry and its needs for
storage space and service area, along with other
community outreach ministries of the church.
The plans for the building were approved by the
Town of Salem Planning Board in the fall of 2013.
It is anticipated that construction could begin
soon with site work preparation. The estimated
construction cost is approximately $400,000.
Fundraising has been underway since the
summer of 2013. In response to an appeal,
Pentucket Bank graciously committed $15,000
toward the construction. Pentucket Bank,
headquartered in Haverhill, Mass., has two
branches in southern New Hampshire, including
one on North Broadway in Salem. Bank
President Scott Cote, a Salem native, has fostered
a signicant community outreach effort by
Pentucket in all its service communities and
was recently recognized by the Greater Salem
Chamber of Commerce as its William A. Brown
Businessperson of the Year.
Anyone interested in the Hope Center project,
or donating to it, can go to www.hopecenter-

The Salem Animal Rescue League has selected Hannah Therrien
of Merrimack as the recipient of the 2014 Hayes Family Scholarship.
Therrien is the rst-ever recipient of the scholarship.
We were thrilled with the number of accomplished scholars
who applied from across southern New Hampshire and northern
Massachusetts. Given the impressiveness of the applications we
received, we are very encouraged that the next generation of
veterinary health professionals will be very strong. All at SARL wish
to congratulate Hannah on her scholarship and her impressive works
throughout her educational career, said SARL Development and
Community Relations Director D.J. Bettencourt.
Hannah Therrien is a senior at Merrimack (NH) High School. She
plans to attend Colorado Mountain College in Glenwood Springs,
Colo., where she will pursue a career as a veterinary technologist.
At Merrimack High School, she was accepted into a selective,
college-level regional veterinary science program and earned high
honors. In addition to her life-long passion to study, help and care
for animals, Hannah is an accomplished dancer who has engaged in
extensive missionary and volunteer work.
Despite the growing cost of attaining a college level education,
it is critically important for students to strive for excellence in higher
education, said SARL Board President Elizabeth Dobbins. This
scholarship reects SARLs strong commitment to education, and we
are excited to make an investment and offer assistance to such an
accomplished young woman in her pursuit of a career caring for the
physical welfare of animals. We have no doubt that Hannah will
make us proud and become a leader in the veterinary profession.
The scholarship of $500 was established in the fall of 2013 in
honor of Valorie Hayes. Valorie was a long-time member of SARLs
Board of Directors who served for many years as its director of
Marketing and Community Relations. Over the years, the support
and commitment to education from the Hayes family has been vital
to SARLs growth and its ability to expand services to the community.

Its up to the Voters
Recently this disturbing quote surfaced: Your dead kids dont trump my
Constitutional Rights.
Joe Wurlsebacher (better known as Joe the Plumber from Sara Palins
time) actually stated these right wing beliefs.
Erica Laferty, whose mother, Dawn Hochsprung, was the principal of
Sandy Hook Elementary and one of 27 victims of the massacre, responded,
Im sorry my loss inconveniences you, Joe. But youre the one whos out of
touch. Wurzelbachers comments, Laferty wrote, encapsulate the ID of
the small faction of extremists who are infuencing our countrys gun laws.
In a shocking way, Wurlsebachers eight words Your dead kids dont
trump my Constitutional Rights encapsulates what the NRA and all of the
politicians who vote against stricter gun laws are saying.
Every week in NH we seem to have another police of cer shot, another
domestic dispute, another shooting of some kind or another.
Nationally, weve just had the Santa Barbara shootings. Ive visited Santa
Barbara and it is the dream of where Id want my son or daughter to go to
college - a beautiful, peaceful environment.
If I had young sons/daughters - at this point I dont know what I would
do. Between campus violence and rapes ... its a tough decision as to
whether to let your young people go out into the world or try to keep them
safe at home.
NH, with its lenient gun laws and less than adequate funding to help
people with mental health issues, is ripe for a real disaster.
Te Santa Barbara story could be a UNH story.
NH, at the very least, must change its Republican right wing/free state
anyone can carry gun laws and start vetting gun owners.
We have been less than well served with our current representatives in
Concord. We must have representatives and senators in Concord who
will take on the Republican Tea Party/Free Stater contingent and stand for
stricter gun control in NH.
We must have representatives and senators in Washington like Annie
Kuster and Jeanne Shaheen who will vote for stricter gun control laws.
Its up to us - the Voters - to make this happen.
Dee Lewis, Salem
NH Alliance for Retired Americans Weighs in
When it comes to support for the senior safety net, New Hampshires two
senators could not be more diferent. Te Alliance for Retired Americans
produces a voting record to show how committed our elected representatives
are to retirees and older Americans. Votes chosen for 2013 were (http://
retiredamericans.org/issues/congressional-voting-record): Seniors Program
Cuts, Health Care Repeal, Estate Tax Repeal, Anti-Retiree Budget,
Mandatory Beneft Cuts, Limit Victims Rights, Limit Voters Rights, Cut
Emergency Phone Service, Pro-Retiree Budget, and Cut Nutrition Programs.
Senator Shaheen received a score of 100 percent, which did not surprise
the New Hampshire Alliance for Retired Americans, since we have had
opportunities to speak with her in person both in her of ce and at events
around the state, and to hear her pledge her support for the programs that
not only beneft us, but our children and grandchildren now and in the
future.
Senator Ayotte received a score of 10 percent, which, sorry to say, did not
surprise us. She has, her staf tells us, been much too busy to meet with us
at her of ce, despite repeated requests. Individual members have attended
events she held, despite the short notices, but have not gotten any questions
answered.
We at the New Hampshire Alliance for Retired Americans believe that all
New Hampshire retirees and all New Hampshire citizens who care about our
retirees or hope to be retired someday should have this information. Please
visit our website, http://nhallianceforretiredamericans.blogspot.com, for

We are a Republic, not a Monarchy
Whether you are for or against the release of fve Taliban for Bowe Bergdahl
doesnt matter. Te fact is that it was illegal without the consent of
Congress. Obama signed that legislation himself. We are going to have
troops in Afghanistan until the end of 2016 so it hard to believe that they
wont be responsible for more casualties.
If Bowe Bergdahl was so concerned about the Afghan children, then
he should have joined the Peace Corp. and not the Army. Personally, my
sympathies are for the children whose parents had to leap from the World
Trade Tower.
Do you remember the Mel Brooks movie when he says, Its good to be
king? I believe Barack Obama says that to the mirror every morning. He
does whatever he wants and if you dare question him you are either a bigot
or a rightwing wacko.
We are a Republic, not a Monarchy. Its time for those who swore an oath to
defend our Constitution to stand up and do it.
Was there a Rose Garden ceremony for the parents of those 6 to 14 soldiers
who died trying to fnd Bergdahl? I must have missed it.

Kudos for a Job Well Done
I am writing this letter of thanks and appreciation for many of the
residents of Sand Hill Road and Pond Street. Tis letter is to let you know
what an incredible job Mike Gover, Supervisor, and Doug Robbins, Project
Manager, and the entire crew of Busby Construction have performed and are
currently fne tuning to our roads and personal property.
Teir attitude, conscientiousness, work ethics are something rarely seen
in todays work force. Examples of this are simple if you open your eyes
and watch how they perform. Tey speak to property owners about their
concerns, wants, and outcome of their property to make sure they are
satisfed with the end result. Along the way, the road crew picks up trash,
i.e.: beer cans, Dunkin Donut cups, cigarette butts, etc. thrown by people
driving through our roads, and debris from their work. Whenever you look,
their people are working at doing the best to get the job done and done
precisely.
Te town should be proud to have contracted with such a splendid
company and group of people. I sincerely hope Busby Construction will
continue to gain contracts throughout Salem, making not only the residents
proud of their town and surrounding area, but also making town enticing to
others and to move here and make this their home.
Once again, kudos to Busby Construction!
Chris Bamford, Salem
Defending the Right to be Left Alone
Te most important right, the one that bothers many in the rest of the
world and is the best demonstration of freedom is the right to be left alone.
Our freedom, created by our founding documents, is maintained due to our
innovation, productivity, property ownership, and earned wealth (however
little). Te result was we were allowed to spend time enjoying life. We
worked , we played, had friends and family times, and life went on. You
really didnt worry about being messed with or that government was looking
over your shoulder waiting for the slightest misstep. Sure you paid taxes but
thats life. Everyone seemed to be in the action of maintaining a free society
and we were all left alone to our own devices.
Te Americans who could work, seemed to be able to work, most of the
time and those reliant on government were in poverty and represented 10-15
percent of society as a whole. Remarkable when you look at other countries
where unemployment has been 40 percent or more for years and every day is
a fght for fnding food, water, energy, and even shelter for ones family.
Recently, the government reported 86 million Americans work and pay
taxes and 114 million live on the handouts from the government 148
million if you count government paychecks. What? In America? Te
place where everyone participates and knows whats going on so they can
aford to have time to use on entertainment? Every taxpayer is supporting
approximately 1.75 people. As you walk around to day pick two people
(outside your family) and you support them too! What the heck?
I heard that factoid reported and thought, even if half true, because they
are, after all, government statistics and can be manipulated, this is insanity.
Let that fact sink in. I am very fearful for our country. No longer are the
majority of Americans the producers, too many are the leeches. We used to
be able to have a balance that enabled the economy room to spin of money
to reinvest. Now we accumulate debt at a faster rate than the economy can
sustain over time. When you wake up
and think about it, that statement is
very logical and very scary.
Whos to blame? Us. We were
given the ability to have the best
life of all and we have allowed our
Unionized Bureaucracy to squander
it. We have allowed the ruling class,
mostly through so-called progressive
(i.e. socialist) ideals, to run things
into the ground in the interest of their
wealth and power. Every country has
them. Ours, for the frst 150 years

kept their heads on. And the country ran in a way no
other country in history did. We raised our standard
of living to be vastly superior of what went before as we
invented automation and other human advancements.
Now they fddle and diddle while prices for energy
doubles, weekly groceries double, and the dollar is worth
3 cents after 100 years of government largesse for war, the
poor, and burgeoning government union wages. We have
a right to be angry.
Great leaders like Harry Reid, who has been in
Congress forever and made millions on a $175,000
salary is the best example. Te entire Congress is made
up of these fools professional politicians who are out
for themselves bribed by their cronies and existing in
the rarifed air of the wealthy who know better than we
peasants. We have recreated the big stupid government
found in most countries on the planet. Only people
dedicated to the original Constitutional America should
be elected. Tis year, vote against every single incumbent.
Ten we start America again.

Is Scott Brown Hiding Something?
If you havent yet decided that money and politics are
a bad mix, you need look no further than Scott Browns
recently reported association with a shady start up frm
in Florida for proof. All he needed to earn a seat on the
board and stock valued at $1.3 million was a partial term
in the U.S. Senate, plans to run again, and a willingness to
lend his name to the company.
We may never know what, if anything, Brown promised
the owners of that frm, but it defes logic to believe
that there was no expectation of reciprocal action by
Brown. Nobody just gives away that much value without
expecting to gain from it.
In 2012, Mitt Romney arguably lost his chance for the
presidency when his infamous 47% remarks revealed his
cynical perception of nearly half the countrys population
as parasites, mooching of of job creators.
What then is Scott Brown? Is he worthy to serve us in
the Senate, or is he just one of Romneys 47% disguised
in an expensive suit, getting his free stuf from wealthy
business people instead of in the unemployment line
like so many who lost their jobs because of an economy
devastated mainly by the actions of banks too big to fail?
And if Brown had nothing to hide, why did he so
abruptly end his association and return the stock? I think
Ill stick with Senator Shaheen. I dont have to worry
about her judgment or integrity.

Salem Native Relives History by
Serving Aboard USS Constitution

James Green,
Navy Ofce
of Community
Outreach
A 2005 Salem
High School
graduate is part
of a hand-picked
Navy crew
serving on the
worlds oldest
commissioned
warship aoat,
the USS
Constitution.
Petty
Ofcer 2nd
Class Stephen
Getchell serves aboard the 216-year-old
Boston-based ship named by President George
Washington to honor the Constitution of the
United States of America. Famously known as
Old Ironsides, the Constitution is a wooden-
hulled three-masted heavy frigate that originally
launched in 1797 as one of six original frigates
authorized for construction by the Naval
Armament Act of 1794.
Getchell, 27, said he is honored to have
been selected to serve on the ship that is rich in
history and successfully held off the British Navy
in the War of 1812.
The history of this ship is amazing, said
Getchell. Being able to serve on the same ship
that some of the early American heroes served
on is an honor.
Constitution actively defended sea lanes
against global threats from 1797 to 1855. Now
a featured destination on Bostons Freedom Trail,
the Constitution and her crew offer community
outreach and education about the ships history
and the importance of maintaining a strong
Navy to hundreds of thousands of visitors each
year.
Seventy-ve sailors make up the crew aboard
USS Constitution. These sailors routinely
interact with the public talking about their jobs
aboard Constitution, their previous duty stations,
Navy rules and regulations and life aboard a
Navy vessel.
It is an honor to serve on the USS
Constitution, the worlds oldest commissioned
war ghting vessel, but I am even prouder to
serve alongside its 75-member crew, said Cmdr.
Sean Kearns, Constitutions 73rd commanding
ofcer. Each sailor selected to serve on the USS
Constitution has a unique story to tell, like that
of Old Ironsides. The mission of todays Navy
is not much different than in 1797: protecting
and defending America on the worlds oceans.
The Constitution is scheduled to conduct
several sailing demonstrations in Boston
Harbor this summer prior to entering a three-
year dry dock maintenance period. The
ships rst sailing, commemorating both the
Battle of Midway and the 70th anniversary of
D-Day, was scheduled for June 6. The popular
Independence Day sailing, open to the public
via lottery, will occur on July 4.
Serving on the Constitution is a humbling
experience, said Getchell. Just thinking about
the history under your feet when you are aboard
Constitution is almost hard to believe.

The 46th annual Dollars for Scholars ceremony was presented
to an excited crowd of friends, family, and proud recipients on the
night of Thursday, June 5, in the Salem High School auditorium.
Frank Stewart, president of the local chapter of the now-national
Dollars for Scholars organization encouraged the outgoing seniors
to give back to their communities and to return as alumni for
scholarship ceremonies in the future. President Stewart thanked
the board of directors for their service and expressed gratitude
to the Salem community for helping so many students achieve
a higher education over the years. The Dollars for Scholars
organization, which started in Salem in 1968, used a new
paperless application system based entirely online for the rst
time this year. Guest speaker Tracy Collyer, the current principal
at Salem High, gave well-spoken advice to graduating seniors
on their time in college and how to approach their futures. The
board of directors, as well as several former recipients of various
scholarships, was in attendance to celebrate the yearly awards.
Twenty-nine graduating seniors were given various scholarships
based on academic accomplishment and nancial necessity.
The awards for 2014 totaled $50,000, with the 46th year total
amounting to $1,673,145 handed out to more than 1,600 students.
Applause followed each student, many of which received multiple
awards for their hard work. Joshua Fox, who earned the Mark E.
Sambataro Memorial Scholarship, as well as two other awards,
plans on attending the University of New Hampshire in the coming
year. Joshua intends on studying political science and continuing
his education into law school afterwards. He, as well as all others
in attendance, was ushered into the cafeteria for a meet-and-greet
complete with refreshments after the ceremony. Once inside the
dining hall, the graduates were introduced to those who made their
scholarships possible.
Corey Nowak, another recent SHS graduate, received the
Scott Dupont Memorial Scholarship which is assigned to creative
students, as well as three other scholarships. Corey plans on
putting his awards to good use at the Rochester Institute of
Technology where he will study electrical engineering. He posed
for pictures with family and spoke with teachers, board members
and trustees in the high school cafeteria.
Funding for the annual Dollars for Scholars event is raised
through donations as well as a walk-a-thon, main-a-thon and a
poker night at Rockingham Park.

The Salem Exchange Club, as in the
past, recently gave out four scholarships to
local students. The rst two went to David
Smolenski and Brianna Lumb. They received
the A.C E. (Accepting the Challenge of
Excellence) scholarship. This program has
two key objectives. First, it helps encourage
students to overcome their hardships and get
back on track toward a high school diploma.
Secondly, the award recognizes those
students who are often overlooked for their
accomplishments. This special recognition
serves as a powerful example to all the
students that hard work and perseverance
really do pay. The scholarships were for
$1,000 and in addition each student received
a plaque.
In addition, two more students, Ryan
Fredette and Crystal Napoli, received
Freedom Shrine Scholarships. Each applicant
had to submit a project that was the basis
for the judging. The Freedom Shrine is an
impressive display of a collection of historic
document replicas that serves to remind all of
us of the great efforts that have been to ensure
our freedom. Both the Boys & Girls Club of
Salem and the Kelley Library have Freedom
Shrines.
The mission of the Exchange Club is
working to make our communities a better
place to live. For more information visit

Congratulations to Salem High School
Graduating Class of 2014
from all of us at
submitted by Alex Dubois, Pelham High School Senior
Have you ever wanted to see police dogs in action? Have
you ever wondered how much training they and their respective
ofcers undergo? Did
you ever think about
their different tactics
in ghting crime? Mrs.
Dubes Criminology class
at Pelham High learned
the answers to all this
and more on May 20.
The class was paid a
special visit by ofcers
Paul Benoit and Dan
Nelson of the Salem
Police Department,
along with their four-
legged counterparts,
Trigger and Till. Trigger
and Till are both black
German shepherds.
Ofcer Benoit began
the presentation
by explaining the
differences between
passive and active alert.
Trigger is trained for
passive alert, which
means when he searches
for contraband or other
items, he scratches the
surface and sits while
the ofcer uncovers it.
Ofcer Nelson explained
that this tactic is used
when there is a threat
of a bomb. Till, on the
other hand, is trained for
active alert, in which he
rapidly searches and digs
and claws until he nds
what he is looking for.
Active alert issued mostly
in narcotic searches and
other drug raids. Ofcer
Nelson said that the
canines primary function
is to be a locating tool.
The next few minutes
were open for general
questions. Chantal Roussel asked if either of the ofcers has
ever been bitten by their dogs, to which they both replied,
yes. They explained that the dogs struggle to be the alpha
dog, which is the position of the ofcers, and thus may attempt
to take out their frustrations toward them. However, Ofcer
Benoit quickly chimed in and said that he still loves his dog and
working with him every day is truly a magical experience.
Dylan Faust asked if there was any special equipment they
needed to use with their dogs. Both ofcers were kind enough
to pass around their muzzle and tracking harnesses.
To everyones surprise, the dogs even have their own
bulletproof vests. Mrs. Dube asked if the ofcers would rather
have a human partner or a dog partner, and surprisingly they
preferred to have the
dogs by their side.
The second half of
the presentation was
extremely unique and
interesting. The class
was able to witness
the police dogs in
action. Ofcer Nelson,
protected by a sheath
over his arm, was
taken down by one
of the dogs. The dog
did not stop until he
had completely ripped
the sheath off his arm.
A mere few seconds
later, the ofcers
arm already showed
signs of bruising and
swelling. Secondly,
Ofcer Benoit (also
wearing protective
armor) played the role
of a eeing suspect. He
ran across the eld, but
was caught and taken
down almost instantly.
This was a live
demonstration of the
dogs second function
as an apprehension
tool.
This presentation
was a very special treat
for the criminology
students, and they are
all very thankful that
the ofcers took time
out of their day to come
and see them. Casey
Gendreau, who hopes
to pursue a career in
law enforcement, said,
It was a very insightful
experience, but I think
I would rather have a
human partner to help me.
Tia Floyd said It was way different than I thought it would
be, and now I realize how much work canine ofcers have
to put in. Everyone enjoyed the presentation, although Mrs.
Dube was a bit frightened by the dogs. She said that shows
how much she enjoys making her class interesting for her
students, especially since this is her last year teaching before
she retires. Mrs. Dube also invited an FBI agent and School
Resource Ofcer Brian Kelley to come and speak to the class.

Salem High Receives
National Student
Council Award
submitted by Salem High School
Claire Brady, an Ofce Technology
teacher, was selected as the Salem
High School Staff Member of the
Month for April. In the words of
several students who nominated her:
Not only is she a great teacher, she
is a great role model. She comes
to school every day with a smile on
her face and a positive attitude. She
always makes my day brighter!
Mrs. Brady getting only
this nomination would be an
understatement of her efforts. She
devotes her time and efforts to benet
the people around her academically
and personally. She has made
such an impact in my life, and Im
sure many others. She helped me
overcome my fear of public speaking
and encouraged me to run for a state
ofcer of FBLA which required me to
make a speech in front of 400 people.
She motivated me to have condence
in myself so I listened to her, made
the speech, and won the position.
Mrs. Brady is a great teacher
who encourages people to follow
their dreams. In class she is great
with helping any students with any
problem, whether its personal, class,
or school related. I cant think of a
teacher that deserves it more.
Mrs. Brady has taught me skills I
will carry with me throughout my life,
including typing and
ling. I have never seen Mrs. Brady
be anything less than enthusiastic and
cheerful.
Lisa Massahos, a paraprofessional,
was chosen as the Salem High School
Staff Member of the Month for May.
Her nomination by a staff member
stated, Lisa is such a valuable asset
in and out of the classroom. Lisa has
been in my class many times. Her
dedication to the students doesnt stop
after the 90-minute block. Not only
does she take the initiative to do the
assignments herself so she can better
help the students, she has
also taken assignments home to
better modify them for students. She
has helped students before and after
school countless times. She urges
them to study or complete work with
their free time throughout the day
Her day does not simply begin
at 7:15 a.m. and end at 2:10 p.m.
Lisa encourages and supports every
student she comes in contact with
to do their best. Lisa is an active
participant in many of Salem High
Schools activities. As advisor to the
freshman class she runs class council
meetings, attends many of the events,
and helps run events. Lisa is always
willing to help out the other classes
as well. For example she is the go
to person for the annual Battle of the
Bands concert. Even though this isnt
the freshman event, the other advisors
knew that she can be counted on to
help run the event. Lisa is a valuable
asset to the Salem High School
community, and I am very pleased to
be nominating her for Staff Member of
the Month.
Deb Wilmarth, support staff for
the Area Directors and the Computer
Lab supervisor, was selected as the
Salem High School Staff Member of
the Month for June. Her nomination
by a staff member stated, Deb is
the central gure in all class council
activities whether it is her class
the Class of 2014 or the other
classes. Other class advisors rely on
Deb immensely for ideas and for the
organization of events such as the
Freshman Reception, Mr. SHS, the
Talent Show, and other fundraisers.
She is a living oral history and
operations manual of these school-
wide student social events. These
events would be far more difcult and
stressful without her involvement. I
can think of no one more deserving
of this honor than Deb Wilmarth.
Congratulations to Mrs. Brady, Mrs.
Massahos, and Mrs. Wilmarth for their
well-deserved recognition.

This month the young entomologists in Grade 1 studied
the life cycle of butteries. Students observed the tiny
caterpillars grow fat and fuzzy, then watched as they
eventually made their chrysalis. After checking each
morning for two weeks, they were excited to see that
the butteries had begun to emerge from the chrysalises.
Flowers were placed in the buttery tents and students were
able to see the butteries drink nectar. First graders learned
a lot about the buttery cycle and created diagrams to
illustrate this. Finally the day came when it was time to set
them free. They took the butteries outside and watched
them y away.
There are also many future gardeners in Grade 1. They
planted marigold, green bean and pumpkin seeds, watered
them and watched their growth from seed to healthy
young plants.
First graders used their map skills during a recent trip
to the Stone Zoo. While there they had to use the zoos
map to nd information about the animals. Everyone had
a wonderful time answering the scavenger hunt questions.
Ask your child what a Zebu is and what is the purpose of
its hump? It was a great way to learn about many animals
theyd never seen before.
Grade 1 teachers and students would like to express a big
thank you to our many volunteers for their generous help
throughout the year. We really appreciate the many things
you did for us! It has been an exciting year at Barron.
Everyone has learned many new skills, worked very hard
and had lots of fun. Now everyone is looking forward to
new challenges and adventures next year. Heres hoping
everyone has a fun-lled summer!

Why is Your Dad the
Best Dad in Town?
Dear Dad,
The reason that you are the best dad in town is because you let me ride the lawn mower. You also help
me when Im hurt or need help with something. You help me in cub scouts; you got me an xbox 360
with different games. You even got me a dog names Dunkin. That is why you are the best dad in town.

submitted by Farmers Market Chef Susan McLean
Make it a really happy day for dad and spoil him this weekend
by preparing him breakfast. Two favorite recipes from the Salem
NH Farmers Market include Maple Smoothies and Egg Sandwich
Cupcakes.
Egg Sandwich Cupcakes? Yep. Baked in mufn tins, theyre great
for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner or snack. The genius of mufn
tins provides portion control.
You can make the cupcake with either a gooey yolk or a fully
baked egg.
If you want the gooey yolk, pre-bake bacon at 400 degrees for
about 10 minutes or cook in heated saut pan for about 3-5 minutes
each side. You dont want crispy bacon yet. Baking will help get
the bacon crispier quicker while you bake the eggs but still remain
pliable for molding in the mufn tins. Bake this version for about 15
minutes, until whites are fully set.
If you want a fully baked egg, which is great for movable feasts
(like picnics), dont pre-cook the bacon and cook the cupcakes for
30 minutes.
Maple Smoothies are super simple and super yummy. Whipping
the yogurt brings it to a smoothie consistency without adding any
other liquid. Add some chopped maple pecans for added protein.
All products for these two recipes are available at the market.
Buy local. Eat local. Visit the Salem NH Farmers Market on
Sundays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. hosted at Lake Street Garden
Center. Debit, credit and EBT accepted. Visit us online at

Thumbs down to the planning committee for
allowing a new building to be built so close to Rt.
28. Rt. 28 South has benetted from a center lane
for turning, and who cant predict that somewhere
down the road Rt. 28 North is going to need one
too? By allowing that new building across from
the Credit Union to be built so close to the road,
you have killed that possibility and created a
permanent bottle neck for that section of Rt. 28.
Thumbs up to Salem Police Ofcer Greg
Pepper and his beautiful daughter for their
generous gift to a young boy with a need. You
saw what needed to be done and did it without
a second thought and asking nothing in return.
You made Mom cry happy tears and a boy smile
from ear to ear. Your thoughtfulness touched our
whole family. Thank you for
having such beautiful and giving
hearts.
Thumbs down to Congress.
The reason that veterans are
dying waiting at the DVA is
congress has neglected to fund
the department. There is no
money for humane care for
veterans who fell through the
US deplorable social safety
net. The idea that managers
hide the congress neglect of
veterans means the department
goes along with the congress
delinquency that harms needy
veterans. We can re the
managers, we need to change
congress. The rst reaction is
more funding something that
Senator Ayotte has opposed.
Congress: stop talking about department managers
who hid your wrongdoing. Act!
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Whoever is writing
these letters about NH licenses, cops, etc., please
answer this ... If a person is cited for speeding at
40 mph in a 30 mph zone, now does a cop run
after him in a cruiser at exactly 44 mph? Isnt that
over the speed limits, chasing? Just asking - about
the same danger as the person cited?
Thumbs up/Thumbs Down. I have been a big
supporter of Ron Belanger on the Planning Board
for years but I dont like him talking over other
people. Ron, give other people a chance. Jane
Lang has been a pleasant surprise but I hope she
doesnt let it go to her head.
Thumbs up to Miss USA
contestant, Pennsylvania,
who announced shes a
product of rape. True, not all
children conceived through
rape have the same love of
family and ability to do what
shes accomplished. Then
again, neither do children not
conceived by rape. Narcissistic
abortion clinics and others
have you believing nothings
more important than ones self
even if it means irreversible
consequences for others, just for
money and genocide. With the
evil and hardships in the world,
sometimes its difcult to see
God. But, if your hearts in the
right place, looking at the end of
the story, the best outcome of all,
you can see. Love.
Thumbs down to Senator
Ayotte, Republican chickenhawk:
Why should American soldiers
serve? Your unreasonable fear of
the Taliban would deny safety to
US POWs. You are afraid that dealing with Taliban
will make the goatherds more willing to attack the
US. Think; unrestricted drone strikes, with innocent
woman and children casualties, are far more likely
to endanger national security than letting a few
Taliban out of Gitmo to go back to their desert.
Why are you so fearful? Do you think Americans
are cowards?
Thumbs down to Republican chickenhawks:
Slanders about Sergeant Bergdahls release are
slanders against all American soldiers of all
wars. To infer that bringing home one American
soldier is not worth releasing a few detainees from
Guantanamo, imply that military casualties were
wasted when trying to recover a captured American
soldier, convict a soldier as a deserter with no
process at all, and whine about the presidents short
discussion. Chickenhawks would leave Sergeant
Bergdahl behind to sooth their terror over Taliban
detainees. American soldiers are disrespected by
the chickenhawk attacks against Sergeant Bergdahl.
They are bleeding veterans health, too!
Thumbs down to asocial
behavior. Men in costume
who want to lock you in a cage
because youre not carrying a
piece of plastic when traveling
to the store. Really? Who gave
you authority over another man?
Town employees in costume who
think they can stop you and frisk
you for a taillight out. Really?
File a claim against that man.
No man has authority to stop you
unless youve done harm to him
or another man.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. When will parents
learn? They talk at the house, at the table, out in
restaurants all about persona business of their
relations, co-workers and neighbors, etc., with
small children. Dont they realize these children
repeat it all to the person(s) they talk about?
Even if they say dont tell they tell! It makes it
very hard for the child to be in the middle. All
is repeated no matter what you say - so stop it!
Grow up!

Blessing and BBQ:
a Good Combination
submitted by Louise Landry,
Derry Salem Elks
Last Saturday, June 7,
Father Tom Frink from St.
Joseph Church blessed
approximately 40 bikes at
the Derry Salem Elks annual
Texas BBQ and Blessing.
More than 100 people
attended the festivities,
enjoying good food, weather
and a blessing for a good
motorcycle season.
submitted by Deacon David Costello
Even though its getting close to the end of the
academic year, the students of Salem High School
have not been sitting on their laurels. The Salem
Student Council recently held an ice cream sundae
sale as well as a senior citizen breakfast.
The proceeds of the sundae sale and the tips
they received from the seniors who attended the
breakfast came to a grand total of $363.55, and they
generously donated these fund to Saints Mary and
Joseph Christian Service. Saints Mary and Joseph
Parish, a Catholic parish which comprises all of the
town of Salem, uses these funds to assist individuals
and families who are in crisis and may need help in
paying their rent, utility bills, or some other family
need.
Salem Student Council members Kristen Foster, left, and
Yao Long present the check to Deacon David Costello for the
parishs use in helping those in need.

Additional Jail Time Tacked on to Salem Mans Sentence
submitted by Salem Police Department
A Salem man accused of ramming three police cruisers and
injuring two ofcers during a March pursuit will spend three years
behind bars while his case continues on. Luis Figueroa, 30, of
Salem, was sentenced last month to serve a year in state prison as the
new arrest violated the terms of his parole for a Hillsborough County
drug sale conviction.
On June 4, a Salem judge tacked another two years on to that
sentence. Figueroa appeared before Judge Robert Stephen in the
10th Circuit Division-Salem court and admitted his actions in March
violated the terms of his probation for convictions entered last year
for reckless conduct, disobeying a police ofcer and endangering
the welfare of a child. Calling Figueroa a menace and threat to the
public, Salem Prosecuting Attorney Jason B. Grosky urged Stephen to
sentence Figueroa to the maximum time he could: two years and 50
weeks in jail tacked onto the end of his state prison sentence.
Figueroas lawyer, Hank Brennan, asked the court to extend his
clients incarceration by not more than six months. Stephen ordered
Figueroa, when he completes his parole sentence, to serve an
additional two years in jail for the probation violations. The judge
remarked that Figueroa is fortunate his actions in March did not
result in a police fatality.
One Salem police ofcer sustained a concussion after Figueroa
rammed his cruiser head-on at high speeds, and another sustained
a strained neck. Beyond causing almost $20,000 in damage to
three police cruisers, Figueroa allegedly collided with a number
of vehicles parked outside the Tiffany Road apartments. The case
started with a motorist calling in an erratic driver along Interstate 93.
The suspect vehicle was found a short time later on Tiffany Road with
Figueroa, apparently passed out behind the wheel, his foot on the
brake and the vehicle running.
That case is pending grand jury indictment with bail set at $1.5
million cash.

Summer Brings Sun and Fun but also Risks
by Paula Faist MS, LSW,
Silverthorne Adult Day Center
Dear Paula,
Do you have any suggestions on how
to protect our older relatives during the
summer season? Linda, Pelham
Some of our seniors are grandparents to
graduates and some of these graduates are
out and about traveling or moving from East
Coast to West Coast. Grandparents may
not be keeping up with the movements and
travels of their grandchildren. So they may
get a call from someone claiming to be their grandchild, stating they are
in trouble please send money and dont tell mom/dad. As many of us
know this is an ongoing scam, but one that a grandparent who loves their
grandchild may fall for. Please advice your relative(s) to not respond to a
call like this and make a report to the police.
Summer for most of us is also a great season full of family cookouts,
outdoors fun and longer, sunny days. When it comes to summer health
risks, dehydration is something all of us need to watch out for, especially
our seniors. A recent University of Chicago Medical Center study found
that 40 percent of heat-related fatalities in the U.S. were among people
over 65. During the summer months, people are more likely to fall victim
to dehydration. Many medications elders are on may make them more
susceptible to dehydration. Staying hydrated keeps the blood pressure
stable and organs healthy. We need to make sure that our loved ones are
drinking enough water, especially if they have been out walking or doing
any kind of exercising. Some signs of dehydration are a dry mouth, cramps,
headaches, fatigue, and dizziness.
To avoid dehydration you can provide
your loved one with uid, at least eight
8-ounce glasses per day. Thats about 1.9
liters which is pretty close to The Institute of
Medicines recommendation of 3 liters for
men and 2.2 liters for woman. Just keep in
mind that the 8-by-8 water rule should be
reframed as: Drink at least eight 8-ounce
glasses of uid a day, because all uids
count toward the daily total.
Some suggestions would be to offer uids
on a regular basis throughout the day. Encourage your loved one to drink
8 ounces of uid when they take their medications. Keep water bottles
available where ever your family member is, whether they are out on
the patio, or living room chair, bed, etc. Make sure the drinks are not
caffeinated or alcoholic.
While seniors are out in the sun it is also important to make sure they are
wearing some type of sunscreen so that they will not get sunburned. As
we age our skin becomes more frail and sensitive so the extra protection is
needed. Sun lotion, a lightweight long-sleeved shirt will give some extra
protection from the sun. Sun may not work well with some medications
so you should talk with your relatives physician about your loved ones
medication. Dont forget the sun visor, baseball cap (Boston Red Sox, of
course) and sunglasses.
Paula Faist, MS, LSW, is president of the NH Adult Day Services
Association and program director of Silverthorne Adult Day Center.

As in the past, the Salem Relay for Life has chosen a
theme, and this years theme is Hope.
So what better person to pick as this years honorary
chairperson than Hope Micklon who is currently battling
colon rectal cancer which is the second deadliest form of
cancer. It was Jane Lang, a member of the relay committee,
herself a cancer survivor, who recommended her.
Hope talked about how just as many women get colon
cancer as men. Also, the number of people over 50
surviving rectal cancer is decreasing while more of those
under 50 are surviving. Why is that? It is believed people
under 50 are waiting too long before they get tested and
diagnosed.
Hope wants people to have a good time at the relay,
come out and support the event. Her wish is for American
Cancer Society to push for more testing and for people
to know the signs. Hope had the signs but didnt do the
standard test. This years lap themes are holidays, and she
is looking forward to the last lap which is the birthdays.
Hopes parents, Doug and Stephanie, have been very
supportive of their daughter as she goes though her battle
with cancer. Hope one day plans to return to work at
Salemhaven.
In the past she has supported their relay team. This years
event is being held on Saturday, June 21, from 11 a.m. to 11
p.m. The entire community is invited to participate. Walk
the track with relayers, play games, enjoy refreshments
and help nish the ght against cancer. Contact Bianka
Beaudoin at SalemNHRelay@cancer.org or 471-4112 with
any questions regarding the event, such as becoming a
sponsor or participant.
Hope Micklon, this years Honorary Chairperson Salem
Relay for Life, exemplifes this years theme of hope.

Softball Squad Stunned in Semis by Dover
by Jacob Gagnon
The Salem High
School Softball team
needed a spark. After
a tremendous 16-2
regular season that
earned them the
second overall seed in
the NHIAA Division
I Championship
Tournament and a
preliminary round
drubbing, 10-3, of
Nashua North High
School, the Blue Devils
found themselves in the
hole against Concord
High School on
Saturday, June 7.
Salem was trailing,
3-1, with Concord
runners on rst and
second base, and
nobody out, when
pitcher Rachel Towler
entered the game. Towler, as she has done all season long, provided
that spark to ignite the Blue Devils.
She gave us the lift after they (Concord) had gone up on us 3-1,
said Head Coach Harold Sachs. That was the lift we needed when
she shut them down. That kept us in the game and we had a little
explosion.
Salem seized the opportunity that Towler provided with an
offensive eruption, scoring 12 runs on 22 hits. It was a much
different story from a year ago when the Blue Devils were eliminated
by the Crimson Tide, 4-2, in the semi-nals of the championship
tournament.
Ashley Conway led Salem with an incredible performance at
the plate. Conway collected four RBIs and went ve-for-ve in the
contest. Senior Amanda Bickford went three-for-four in the game
with a pair of RBIs. Classmate Brittany Wallace also went three-for-
four at the plate with two RBIs. Holly Peterson, Sam Cloutier, and
Mikayla Pacy all went two-for-four on the evening and contributed
with an RBI apiece.
Just the way we hit the ball today is something. We havent had
that kind of hitting in the tournament in a long time, said Sachs. It
makes all the difference in the world. It takes a lot of pressure off of
the pitchers, and it takes a lot of pressure off the defense.
Pressure or not, Towler continued to deal on the mound for the
Blue Devils. She hurled ve innings, allowing one run on three hits
and two walks with an amazing 10 strikeouts. With the win, Salem
advanced, once again, to the semi-nals. Following the quarternal-
round victory, Sachs plan for his team was simple: Rest, rest, and
then get ready to play again Tuesday night. The hard work was
over; it was now time to perform.
On Tuesday, June 10, the Blue Devils met the third-seeded Dover
High School at Southern New Hampshire University. Towler took
to the mound and again hoped to be Salems saving grace. While
Towler did keep the Green Wave off balance, she also had trouble
nding the plate. After three no-hit innings, Dover capitalized on
Salem mistakes in the fourth inning of play.
After walking the rst two batters, Towler allowed the rst Dover
hit of the game to load the bases and proceeded to walk in the rst
two runs of the ballgame. Kathleen Dawson entered the game in
relief, inheriting a bases loaded situation. Dovers pitcher, Molly St.
Germain cracked a triple that went all the way to the wall to clear
the bases and give Dover a 5-0 lead.
It was a devastating moment for a Salem squad that had worked
so hard to return to the semi-nal game of the tournament. Still, the
Blue Devils persevered. In the bottom of the fourth inning, following
a base hit from Brittany Wallace and a double from Montana Davis,
Holly Peterson hit a sacrice y to score a run for Salem. It would
be their only score of the night.
Salems offense, which had been red-hot entering the game, had
cooled. Although they were able to hold Dover scoreless in the
nal three innings, the Blue Devils bats could not muster any runs
despite outhitting their opponents, 9-5.
Bickford nished her high school career with a terric game at
the plate, going three-for-four in the contest. Conway continued
to compete at the plate with a two-for-four hit night. Peterson was
responsible for the only RBI of the game on her sacrice y.
While the Blue Devils will be losing four talented seniors
following this game, they will have a lot of returning varsity players
who have gained both experience and motivation for next season.

Baseball Team Bounced in Preliminary Round by Alvirne
Spotlight Turns to Spring Athletes on Awards Night
Girls Lax Ousted
by Astros, 18-10
by Jacob Gagnon
Until the nal buzzer sounded, ending their season, the Salem High School girls
Lacrosse squad continued to chip away at Pinkerton Academys insurmountable lead.
In the end, it was too little, too late, as the Blue Devils were bounced from the NHIAA
Division I Championship Tournament in the semi-nal round.
Salem earned the sixth seed for the tournament with a solid regular
season record of 9-8 and winning seven of their nal 10 games. In the
quarternal round of the tournament, the Blue Devils upset the third-
seeded Nashua North High School, 16-11.
On Saturday, June 7, Salem traveled to Pinkerton Academy to meet
the second-seeded Astros. The Blue Devils hoped to maintain their
momentum and score another upset. Despite Salems best efforts,
however, Pinkerton grabbed a strong 12-4 lead at the half that they
would relinquish.
Five different players contributed to the score for Salem. Elizabeth
Twomey, Lissa Perry, Ashley Matthews, Ashely Hayes, and Kiley Keenan
all collected two goals apiece in the loss.
Even in defeat, the Salem High Girls Lacrosse team can enter the
offseason knowing that they had given it their all each time they played.

Te Blue Devils were shut out against the Broncos in the postseason game.
by Jacob Gagnon
Following a losing skid, the Salem High School Baseball team was
able to nish their regular season strong, winning two of their nal
three games. The Blue Devils nished the regular season with a
9-11 record that earned them the tenth seed for the NHIAA Division
I Championship Tournament.
On Friday, June 6, the Blue Devils traveled to face the 7th-seeded
Alvirne High School. Unfortunately for Salem, Alvirnes Tyler
Brown, one of the top pitchers in the division, hurled a gem. Brown
maintained a no-hitter against Salem until the top
of the fth inning.
Despite their struggles, Salem stayed in the
game with the Broncos. There was no score
until the fourth inning. Following a walk and a
throwing error, a Bronco triple scored the rst
run of the game. A single, two at-bats later, gave
Alvirne a 2-0 lead that they would continue to
build on as the game progressed.
C.J. Beaulieu hurled ve and a third strong
innings for the Blue Devils. Salem would
surrender seven runs when Beaulieu was on the
mound, but only two of those runs were earned.
Beaulieu allowed six hits, three walks, and struck
out ve Alvirne batters. In relief, Dom Palermo
pitched two-thirds of an inning and allowed no
hits, one walk while striking out one Bronco.
Brown, the opposing pitcher, tossed seven innings
en route to a one-hit shutout win. Brown walked
two batters while striking out eight Blue Devils.
Salems only hit of the game occurred when
the score was still blank, as right elder Kyle
Nagri crushed a double. The Blue Devils would
strand Nagri at second and could not record
another hit against Alvirnes Brown. The following
day, on Saturday, June 7th, the Broncos scored a 7-1 win over
Timberlane Regional High School to advance to the semi-nals of
the tournament.
Even during Salems struggles throughout the season, they
continued to push forward with the hopes of making the postseason.
With a number of talented players returning next season, Head
Coach Dan Keleher will get the opportunity to work toward bigger
things with this group of talented and persevering ballplayers.
by Jacob Gagnon
On Monday, June 9, Salem High School honored the hardest

Lauren McGregor was given the Blue Devils top honors as she
was awarded the Spring Outstanding Female Athlete. Erika Smith

Vermont All-Star Game later this month. Charles Peters was named
the top male scholar-athlete of the spring.
Peters was also awarded with the Blue Devil Sportsmanship
Award for the boys volleyball team. The other Sportsmanship Award
