Selectmen Extend Water Meter Deadlinefor Mobile Home Parks
by S. Aaron ShamshoyanAn extension has been granted for two mobile home parks that failed
to meet a requirement implemented by selectmen to replace individualwater meters by June 1.
Mobile Courts and Suburban Park were granted an extensionuntil July 15, 45 days after the required deadline, to upgrade eachmanufactured home’s meter to an electronically read one, or be billedbased on the park’s master meter.
“The mobile home park owner does not have the ability to back billor charge back for water usage from a previous quarter,” said TownManager Keith Hickey to selectmen. “We’ll have to get the balancethat haven’t connected or reconnected.”
Hickey said Suburban Park had 19 meters waiting to be convertedout of 27 accounts where Mobile Courts had 87 accounts and only
four left.Attorney Thomas Morgan, representing Suburban Park, said the delay
had been caused by finding a plumber to complete the project.“Unlike mobile courts he doesn’t have any working staff he can
assign to the job,” Morgan said about the park owner. “ It’s largelyplumbing, rather than meter pit, that has to be converted.”
Morgan said it was a challenge to find another plumber to do the job and the only one agreeing to do the project wouldn’t guarantee acompletion date until mid July.
“I have tried to get other plumbers, but I have found not everyplumber wants to crawl under a manufactured home,” he said. “Wecan’t get him to agree to a completion date earlier than July 15.”
Hickey said the town’s billing process would be affected if theconversion wasn’t completed by June 30, adding the parks’ bills mayneed to be delayed.
Selectman Stephen Campbell said he supported the extension butsaid he wanted the project to be completed by the end of June toalleviate billing problems.
“Everyone was given sufficient notice,” Campbell said. “In businessif you got a deadline and you have a problem meeting a deadline, youfind other alternatives.”
Selectman Pat Hargreaves agreed with Campbell that the projectshould be completed within the month. Hargreaves motioned toextend the deadline for the two parks until June 30.
Selectman Michael Lyons said the plumber would only guarantee thecompletion of the conversion by July 15 and that it would be sufficient.
“I’m good with July 15,” he said. “Don’t come back with anotherone.”
Morgan said the park owner wasn’t originally aware of the requiredneed as they met a previous requirement to install individual metersto each of the homes. He added the readings could be recorded andsubmitted to the water department to meet the June deadline.
“I want the readings on June 30 in the water department, so they cansend the bills out when they need to. Period,” said Selectman EverettMcBride.
Lyons proposed an amendment to the motion to extend the deadlineto July 15. The amendment passed with Campbell and Hargreaves inopposition. The motion was also approved with the same vote.
Hickey said a bill will be sent to the park owner based on the mastermeter for any accounts not converted by the deadline.
by Jay HobsonSchool district officials had an official groundbreaking ceremony
in the cafeteria of the high school on May 28 for the $75 millionrenovation project.
Although the ceremony was held inside due to impendinginclement weather, shovels were put to earth outside brieflyafterward.
Superintendent of Schools Michael Delahanty thanked theresidents of Salem for backing the project with their votes in thelast election in March.
“So far there has been a new retention pond and the start of anadditional parking lot,” Delahanty said.
School Board Chairman Michael Carney also spoke, thankingthe community as well as others.
“Some will say that a new building does not make a qualityeducation,” Carney said. “I agree, but as Dr. Fran Vandiver of
the University of Florida said, ‘Buildings do not determine thequality of a student’s education, but if they can make it possiblefor that education to be responsive to the need for collaboration byteachers and students to utilize technology not as a gadget but asa means to develop 21st century skills, then the building can be a
great asset to the learning process.’”He went on to say that the groundbreaking ceremony celebrates
the beginning of a three-year construction project that willculminate with a renovated and reconstructed Salem High Schooland CTE Center.
“A building that everyone in Salem will be proud of, a buildingthat will have the latest technology, state-of-the-art sciencelaboratories, updated classrooms and improved athletic andperforming arts facilities. In short, a facility that is designed to helpprovide our students with a 21st century education,” Carney said.
SHS Principal Tracy Collyer said that the project was “historical.”“Your individual efforts and those of our partners helped us to
collectively achieve the simple goal of providing a safe and modernfacility which the students of Salem will have the opportunity toexcel in academically,” Collyer said.
Collyer said that she asked several students what a renovated
SHS would mean to them; she was told that already great programswould be even better.
“All those I spoke with said that they would have a building thatthey could be proud of and would bring our community closer,”Collyer said.

SHS Breaks Ground on Renovation Project
by Bob Gibbs Just as the Mall at Rockingham Park was
closing on a Sunday evening four armed menwith handguns, high-powered assault rifles,and IEDs (improvised explosive devices) tookseveral employees of the mall hostage. AsSalem Police were called out to control thesituation, it became clear that more manpowerwas going to be needed.
The Southern New Hampshire SpecialOperations Unit was called to respond to thescene.
This was not a real situation, but atraining exercise for the local police and firedepartments as well as the SNHSOU. TheSNHSOU unit is responsible for providinga specialized police response to the ninemember communities. Made up of speciallytrained officers from Salem, Londonderry,
Windham, Hudson, Hampstead, Pelham,Raymond, Litchfield and Derry. These townshave pooled law enforcement resources forthe purposes of forming a Regional SpecialOperations Unit. The unit is managed and runby a Board of Directors, which encompassesall of the member agencies’ chiefs of police.The communities involved have signed anInteragency Mutual Aid Agreement and haveformulated a comprehensive set of standardoperating procedures that regulate and governthe unit.
Cumulatively, the unit is responsible forproviding a specialized police response to thenine communities. An example of specializedpolice response would be to serve a high-risksearch warrant, or serving a high-risk arrestwarrant where there is likelihood that theperson(s) sought may be armed. The bulk of

Surviving the Ups and Downs
Step into Dad’s Shoes for a Minute
Yard is ‘Picture Perfect’

I have been caring for mydad and just feel like I ambeing mistreated verballyby him. Do you have anythoughts? Ann, Salem
It is unfortunate that yourdad is showing his anger
and frustration toward you.I have always said “we hurt those we love the most.” Ibelieve this happens because of unconditional love. Yourdad feels safe enough with you that he is able to releasehis inner most feelings. I believe most seniors don’tconsciously abuse their children. They are looking attheir lives, their losses and need to vent these emotions tosomeone.
You may want to step into your dad’s shoes for a minuteby asking some of the following questions: Has he losthis spouse, friends, or close family members? Is he nowretired with no one to share his free time with? Is he inchronic pain? Is he having memory issues? Is he facingphysical changes with himself? If you say ‘yes’ to any ofthese issues you have to then ask yourself why wouldn’t hefeel frustrated.
The key for you is to accept what he is going throughand be mindful of how his losses are impacting you with
your own thoughts of the future.If you can acknowledge whereyour dad is, if you can share yourthoughts, fears and love with himplease do so. If the verbal abusecontinues, you have to try to nottake every comment he makespersonal ly. You may want to askanother family member to helpyou by talking to dad or staying
with him to give you a well-deserved break. You may need to have your dad see hisdoctor to assess his mental health.
You may also want to research help in your community.If he becomes involved in a senior center or adult daycenter, both of you, may benefit. The socialization andinteraction with others may be of help to him. A littleseparation from him may help you with your caringresponsibilities. Home care or an alternative livingsituation may be options you will also want to consider.The caregiving journey is one full of ups and downs,curves and straight-aways. You need to remember to takecare of yourself in order to take care of Dad.

by Bob GibbsOn Friday, May 29, the sixth annual SSG Edmond Lo pasta dinner
fundraiser was held at the Salem High School cafeteria. The fundraiserraised over $6,000 for the Lo scholarship. The event was catered bySeals, and the Salem JROTC, along with Chief Puzzo, volunteered asservers for this special event to honor one of Salem’s lost Americanheroes.
Live music was provided by David Lacroix, Tim Corcoran, KevinElliott, Paul Iannazzo, Sharon Lee Wojcik-Healey, Karl Armano, SeamusMcLaughlin, and Steve Z for the dining entertainment of the near-capacity crowd.
A raffle drawing was held for contributors to win some of the manygift certificates that were donated by the more than 30 local businesses.There also was a 50/50 raffle as a part of the evening’s event.
The SSG Edmond Lo Memorial Scholarship Fund was establishedby the family of Staff Sergeant Edmond Lo, a 2004 graduate of SalemHigh School. Its mission is to provide annual scholarship awards toSalem High School JROTC students who personify the academic andleadership qualitiesthat Edmondexhibited throughouthis career.
As a member of the JROTC program, SSGLo was commander ofthe drill team, colorguard, and OperationSquadron. TheRochester Instituteof Technologyoffered a full three-year scholarship,but Edmond wasdetermined to servehis country.
“We called him Mr.Dependable. Everytime we needed something, he was there,” said Chief Master Sgt.Thomas Puzzo SHS’s JROTC leader since 2002.
On June 13, 2009, our country suffered a great loss when Edmondwas killed in action while in Iraq supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.He was deployed with the 797th EOD Company to Baghdad, Iraq, forhis second tour of duty with the U.S.Army. He provided EOD support to the25th Infantry Division in multi-nationaldivision north where he bravely andselflessly eliminated IED’s.
SSG Lo had been trained at FortHood, Texas. Fort Hood is the largest
active duty post in the U.S. ArmyService and is usually bustling withactivity, but on March 12, 2010,there was a moment of silence at theEOD headquarters as the dedicationplaque naming the building to TheSSG Edmond L. Lo Memorial Buildingwas unveiled. During the ceremony,Lt. Col. Geoffrey Stevens reflected onEdmond’s strong character by callinghim “one of our finest.” Edmond wasalso remembered by Sgt. 1st Class BradGrimes as someone who was kindhearted and well liked.
The plaque on the wall of EODheadquarters reads in part: “Forhis actions, SSG Lo was awardedthe bronze star, a purple heart andthe combat action badge. SSG Loepitomized the army values of personalcourage, duty and selfless service on
June 13, 2009, as an EOD team leader.He fearlessly responded to a hazardousmission to ensure coalition forcesmaintained freedom of maneuverduring Operation Iraqi Freedom.”
The cadets of JROTC are a hard-working team, building leadershipskills and representing the schooldistrict with pride and dignity.
Every year, the Lo familyawards scholarships to deservingstudents who are selected in ablind process by SHS teachers.
This year’s winners of SalemHigh School’s 2015 SSG EdmondLo Scholarship award recipientsare Daniel Poucher, Kyle Poucherand Jonathan Zywusko.

The Word Around Town... Letters to our Editor
Recognizing the Importance of Traditional Marriage
Our country will soon hear the Supreme Court’s decision regardingtraditional marriage. is will be one of the most momentous decisions tobe handed down by these United States justices. Religious freedom, one
of our most treasured rights, could be compromised. Instead of followingthe “politically correct” path, let us be the shining light that recognizes theimportance of traditional marriage as an essential pillar of our society.
On Saturday, June 13, we invite all of Salem, NH and the surroundingcommunities to offer a prayer asking the Holy Spirit to enlighten theseSupreme Court justices. St. Joseph Church, 40 Main St., Salem, NH, willbe open as a gathering place for this purpose. We invite people of all faithsto “drop in” between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. to offer a personal prayer, pray with a small group or meditate on scripture. For more information pleasesee our website at www.saintsmaryandjoseph.org.

Hillary Clinton Comes to NH on June 15 Want to measure the gulf between the citizen-first mentality of Hillary
Rodham Clinton’s proposed presidential policies vs. those of the increasingnumber of GOP challengers lining up to oppose her? en just check outher comments at a house party here in Amherst last month. While the TedCruzes, George Patakis and Jeb Bushes spend their time denigrating all theeffective programs that they are planning on slashing as the Republican Partycontinues their anti-humana tilt further and further to the right, Clintoninstead spoke of her worthy platform including equal pay for women (whoearn 78 cents on the dollar nationally compared to men), funding SocialSecurity and preventing its GOP-desired privatization, and protecting the Affordable Care Act, one of president Barack Obama’s signature triumphsthat has benefitted millions of Americans and will continue to do so as longas voters prevent a Republican presidential victory in 2016.
And New Hampshire citizens are going to be able to gauge HillaryClinton’s viewpoints and proposals in a big way very soon. e goodnews is that two days after her Saturday, June 13, campaign kickoff rally
in New York and a stop in Iowa,Clinton is planning on visitingthe Granite State at an as-yetunspecified location(s) on Monday, June 15. is will be her largestNew Hampshire engagement sinceannouncing her candidacy on April 12, after running two small
invitation-only events for more intimate gatherings.e Hillary Clinton platform, including but not limited to the issues
mentioned above, is to maintain military pressure on the terrorist ISIS
group decimating the Middle East and threatening our shores, safeguard gaymarriage from the ravages promised by most of the GOP contenders, restorevoting equality to African Americans, severely damaged by the SCOTUS2013 ruling striking down most of the Voting Rights Act, and continue tohelp fund the Bill Clinton Foundation, her husband’s charitable corporationthat a large portion of Hillary’s speaking fees go to.
Clinton is and always has been a political centrist, which galvanizesmany of America’s most objective current-events watchers, liberal andconservative alike, while simultaneously rankling the far-left progressivebase. In the next 17 months the latter group is going to have to face thefact that her electability is going to hinge on a more nuanced approach than jumping on the many bandwagons, some feasible, some not, that they’realready clamoring for her to champion. And these topics will include issuesencompassing everything from the environment, trade and economic causesand overseas military concerns. e aim in next year’s campaign will be toremind all Americans, Republican, Independent and Democrat alike, of theGOP-led collapse of the last decade, and make them understand that thefailed policies of that unlamented era are being espoused by most if not all ofher Tea Party-hamstrung Republican challengers.
e progress that the United States has made in six and a half yearsunder outgoing president Obama can’t be allowed to collapse back to the
four-corner nightmare of the Republican-dominated George W. Bush era.e “bottom 98%” in November 2016, which includes most of us, hasto understand that there are an amazing number of conservatives across America who have steadfastly ignored and continue to deny the obviouseconomic, social and military progress that the Democratic Party hasaccomplished since January, 2009 when Obama took offi ce. And theirnumbers include many gender-conscious voters who under no circumstances would vote for Hillary Clinton despite her obvious experience, fitness andelectability for the job. is makes America’s election year 2016 a watershedevent in a historical sense, as well as for us to make sure that Clinton, abattle-tested, knowledgeable and ultimately caring candidate that willfurther our citizens’ lives instead of regressing them, is elected.

SHS Sophomoreto Beautify FirstCongregational
Churchsubmittedby BridgetDetollenaere, 1stCongregationalChurch, Salem
The road tobecoming anEagle Scout canbe a long oneand not all whostart the journeyfinish it. ForKieran Edwards,16, of Salem, his
journey began asa Cub Scout atthe age of 6 andwill hopefully beculminated withan Eagle ScoutCourt of Honor.
The son of Laura and Glen Edwards has completed all theBoy Scout requirements leading up to Eagle Scout. From firstlearning all about the use of knots, knives and saws and scoutingbasics as a Tenderfoot, he has moved up the ranks of Scouting towhere he is now a Life Scout. As a Life Scout he had to earn 21merit badges, 13 of which are required badges before he couldput in his application for Eagle Scout. The application itself isa formidable process. He had to decide on a service project,put together a project proposal which must prove planning,development and leadership will take place and how his serviceproject will benefit the recipient of the project. His proposalthen went before district approval. It has been approved andon May 9, he will begin work on repairing & moving the sign infront of First Congregational Church, Salem.
“This church has been a big part of my life,” said Edwards. “Iwanted to give something back to it that would help save thechurch money.”
The sign will be moved away from the church ramp for bettervisibility for both directions of traffic on Lawrence Road. Hewill also landscape around the new location, repair the lightthat is directed toward the church steeple, and mark out newhandicapped parking spots in front of the church.
With the help of Jim Ackroyd, one of the church’s buildingtrustees and an Eagle Scout himself, Edwards has planned whereto move the sign, obtained the necessary permits, and had DigSafe mark where not to dig. He has sought donations from CyrLumber, Dunkin’ Donuts, Market Basket, and Romanos and hasrecruited other Scouts in his troop to help with the manual labor.Aaron Lancaster of AJ Electric of Haverhill, Massachusetts, hasassisted with all the electrical needs.
Edwards’ Eagle Coach Jim Ackroyd has high praise for this fineyoung man.
“I have been working with Kieran for a couple of months onhis Eagle Scout project and I cannot believe how things havegone, Ackroyd said. “He is mature beyond his years and knowswhen it’s time to get going. If I ask him to make sure somethingis done, I don’t feel the need to check up on him. This entire
journey has been a pleasure for me as we have reminisced about
my own project, oh so many years ago. Kieran has on severaloccasions added more items to his list of things he would like toimprove at the church. We are truly blessed to have him in ourcongregation. I am sure he has great things ahead.”
Kieran hopes to have the work completed by June when hewill submit his final report to the Nutfield District Eagle Board. Ifall goes according to plan, he will have his Eagle Scout Court ofHonor and receive his Eagle Scout Award before the end of the
year.An active member of First
Congregational Church, theSalem High School sophomorealso enjoys soccer, hiking,camping, playing the saxophonein the school band and traveling.

all classrooms and staff from the school, as well asparents, to take a tour through their room and checkout biographies of famous people while studentshosted a Biography Wax Museum. Students weredressed up and “frozen” as statues of their chosenpeople.
The Biography Wax Museum has been a specialproject of Mary Fisk school second grade teacherChelsea Ford for the past five years in the SalemSchool District.
“I started theBiography WaxMuseum at SouleSchool whereI taught fourthgrade, and havecontinued thisresearch unit insecond grade

Ford said that she has had a“whole collection of charactersin the past six years- from HarryHoudini to Barack Obama,Shaun White to Pocahontas.”
“Students from upper gradeslove coming back each yearand seeing all the people theycan identify. It has been sucha fun project to celebrate ourlearning,” Ford said.
Students choose one famousand influential person in historyand research this person usingpicture books and onlineresources.
“Second graders were taughthow to collect their informationon a graphic organizer, andused these facts to write abiography research report,” Fordsaid.
Ford said that one way thatstudents presented their reportswas by creating a life-sizeportrait of their chosen person.
The students displayed
these cut-outs in chronologicalorder around our second gradeclassroom.
Gianina Cayabyab, 7, saidthat she enjoyed studying abouther famous person who wasPocahontas.
“I used books and went onpebblego (www.pebblego.coman educational website) andGoogled her. I borrowed thecostume from my friend, and mybig sister Alissa braided my hair,”Cayabyab said.
Peggy Ni, 7, was Sacagaweaand Daniel Nasan was HenryFord, complete with a modeltruck in his hand.
The students from the othergrades passed through and were
amazingly quiet as if they werein a real museum.
“It really has been a wonderfullearning experience as well as afun activity,” Ford said.

Welcoming a
Season of New Hopes
Spring, my favorite time of year ... a time of new
beginnings, renewal, and growth. After our long
winter, spring offers a time full of potential. Many
of the qualities of spring also convey what hospice
is about – celebrating life, honoring the journey, and
savoring the moment.
Over the years, I’ve seen first-hand how hospice
care can enrich people’s lives by meeting patients’physical, social and emotional needs with compassion.
Hospice isn’t about giving up hope, or thinking that
a season is coming to an end. It’s about creating new
hopes and carrying out wishes for comfort with honor
and joy for the life that remains. It allows for time to
strengthen relationships, create new memories and
cherish special times with family and loved ones.
As spring unfolds and the days of summer begin,
remember that hospice care is a positive step in
affirming the value of life for the season ahead.
For information about the benefits of hospice, please
call 800-933-5593.

spreads because it is popular among the Syrianand Iraqi of the Sunni sect. If Iraqis do not stopISIS the US can do nothing but sink further intoa quagmire. US is making more Muslims flockto ISIS. Bombing and giving away equipment isuseless. What needs to be done is to separatethe Sunni Muslims who support ISIS to theirown country. Let Saudi Arabia fund the newgovernment as they are now funding ISIS.”
“Thumbs down to the small minded individualwho states that ‘traditional marriage to be for thegood of children and society.’ I know several gaymarried couples with children, and they havebetter, more stable loving relationships than some‘traditional’ couples I know. God created allpeople, and all people are perfect in God’s eyes.Heaven forbid your child or grandchild is gay.Times are changing. Maybe you should focus onwhat is going on in your own home rather thanconcern yourself with something that is none of
your business.”
“Thumbs down to Hampstead Area WaterCompany. We have a community well servingmultiple neighborhoods, the well house iscontinuously having power issues, and at timeswe have had no water for multiple days. It’s justnot right not being able to flush your toilet orwash your hands. Over the past several years,neighborhood residents haverequested via a written petitionand individual phone calls for agenerator to be installed and yetwe have had no response fromHampstead Area Water. We paythem to test and manage ourwater and they have been failingmiserably.”
“Thumbs up/Thumbs down tothe ignorant person against samesex marriage. Get with the timesand you can get the bible to sayanything you want pro or conon a subject. It is close-mindedpeople like you that give religion a bad name.”
“Thumbs down on Millville Street. Can’t even
decorate a garden area and someone steals adecoration from the front of my own lawn! Inoticed the frog gone when I mowed my lawn.Stolen is a light green frog (ceramic) sittingholding a coffee cup - this was a sentimentaldecoration. My daughter (US Army SPC) gavethis to her Dad (now deceased) for a Father’s Daygift when she was a teen. He loved frogs andcoffee ... collected garden statues and ceramics
frogs. I am hoping someone is reading this andit is returned. I am upset that I can’t decorate the
front of my lawn and I have put this frog on thegardens my deceased husband built every year inhis memory. Just want the frog holding a teacupback.”
“Thumbs down to the landscape company thatwas working at the condos on the corner of Mainand Geremonty for blowing all the leaves out ontothe sidewalk of Main Street.”
“Thumbs down to the two old men who neededto stand around and chat it up at the dump onTuesday while there was a line of people waitingto get in. Take it somewhere else.”
“Thumbs up to Hillary Rodham Clinton onthe announcement of her presidential campaignkickoff. The free-to-the-public rally will take placeon Saturday, June 13, in New York’s Four FreedomsPark on Roosevelt Island. This is a fitting openingvenue, given both her well-known, lifelong
admiration for Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt aswell as the fact that her husbandBill spoke there at its dedicationthree years ago. Clinton’sspeech will describe her visionof continuing and improving onthe dramatic comeback Americahas made over the past six years,a vision decidedly different fromthe negative ‘end Obamacare/ outlaw gay marriage/privatizeSocial Security/Medicaid’doggerel coming from most of theRepublican challengers so far.”
“Thumbs up/Thumbs down.Oh brother, now Keller wants
to study (in secret) if we need a Public SafetyDirector as an addition to staff, try a $200,000-plus per year job. Chairmen Keller, please stopthis nonsense.”
“Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Here’s an ideafor Salem, establish an ‘Innovation Free Zone’ forSalem. The BOS would meet there and any big
ideas that cost taxpayers lots of mullah would beforbidden. Big thinkers cost big bucks. Hint tothat big thinker Keller; put those 23 million ideasof yours where they belong. For your assistancethere is a receptacle located at 101 Shannon Rd.That receptacle is aptly named the thumbs downdumpster.”
“Thumbs down to living in the United States.Why? That would be like living in Walmart, with
all its bean bag chairs and bicycles. The UnitedStates is a corporation folks. 28 U.S. Code § 3002
(15) (A) Definitions - ‘United States’ means - aFederal corporation.’ Don’t believe me? Look itup. So why are our soldiers killing and dying for acorporation? What about the police? Makes youstop and think.”
“Thumbs up to the lady fromSally Sweets Way speaking asan abutter at the Zoning Board.She won the day with a 4-1 voteagainst the requested variancewith Bernie Campbell for thelone vote. By the way, whatis up with Bernie Campbelllimiting the number of publiccomments during the boardmeeting? If Bernie Campbelldoes not have the time to listento what people have to say thenhe should step down from theZBA.”
“Thumbs up to the sweethomeowners on Green AcreDrive that put out a smallbench, trash can and even a potof flowers to brighten the day forthe children at the bus stop - and they don’t evenhave children.”
“Thumbs up to Salem for keeping their manholecovers so low. We do front-end alignments.Business has never been so good. The only way itcould get better is if they placedsome old railroad ties across theroad. Thanks Salem.”
“Thumbs up to the readerwho wrote in concerning theperson running a business fromtheir residence. We have thesame problem on Haigh Ave.
in Salem. It is definitely aneyesore. I only have to driveby the house. I feel bad forhis neighbors living right nextto it. Maybe the town shouldtake a ride by and see what’shappening.”
“Thumbs up to the three young men on bicycleswith lacrosse sticks crossing from Bridge Streetover Main to School Street last Thursday afternoon(two of you had orange t-shirt s). You waited forthe walk signal and when it changed to allowyou to cross you looked left for eastbound MainStreet traffic. Thankfully you did so because a tanNissan traveling at a high rate of speed ran the redlight and had you just proceeded, one or all ofyou would have been struck. I hope you parentssee this and know you’re all very smart.”
“Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Hey what is up
with Ron Belanger? Is he pro-business, pro-voter,or pro-Ron? Choices, choices, choices.”
“Thumbs up/Thumbs down to theConservation Commission. We appreciate themvolunteering their time to serve on the board andtrying to help the town. Lately, we only hearfrom the members ‘what I want to see happenwith this project’ rather than what is ‘best for thetown or for the abutters.’ One member actually
puts his hand on his to chest and says ‘this iswhat I to see.’ It’s not about what they want but
what is best for the town. They also lose focusfrom what he should address and start talkingabout other issues that aren’t relative to thediscussion.”
“Thumbs down. When will the town of Salemget a Technical School built to retrain residentswho have electronic skills and background andneed to enter into the workforce again and whowere laid off due to the bad recession. That’swhat Salem needs, not more restaurants.”
“Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Brook Villagedeserved kudos under new management. Itlooks so neat and landscaping is perfect,new shutters and new makeovers! LancelotCourt is also looking much better and they are‘owner’ condos. So, Rockingham Commons,what’s up? Brook Village is putting you guys toshame! We’ve been inside all three complexes.Rockingham Commons, you’re still in the 80sinside and outside! Kensington Place is ‘ultra’ -we’re proud to live here!”

our work has been the service of drug search/arrest warrants. Theunit also responds to situations that rapidly exceed the normalcapabilities of the member communities’ law enforcement resources,such as a barricaded gunman/hostage-taking incidents among others.
The unit has been training to respond to criminal terrorist incidentsand is working closely with the Southeastern NH HazardousMaterials Mutual Aid District, Hazmat team in furthering that goal.
Joint training operations are conducted on a regular basis among theunits to promote tactical interoperability.
Also, taking part in the training tonightwas the Salem Fire Department, withacting Fire Chief Paul Parisi observingthe actions. In the case of a real action,the fire department could be called tothe scene to provide EMS as well as firesuppression.
As Chief Parisi stated the EMS teams arenow expected to go into warm zones ofaction to aid injured civilians and police.These are areas that have been secured forthe moment but may not be totally clearedof danger.
For the training this night, severalmall employees and volunteers acted ashostages and terrorists. Several of theactors were secured to chairs, while otherswere kept in a confined area of the mallfood court.
Also, empty propane tanks with wires
were used tosimulate theexplosive devices.
Organized bySalem Police SgtSmith and SgtKeating, the groupof more than 35
specially trainedofficers wasorganized arounda communicationsand supportvehicle. Only afew of the teamhad any idea ofwhat the situationinside was going to
be like.The unit sets up a unified command made up of officers from the
towns and departments that are involvedin the action.
The officers all suited up in protectiveequipment, including helmets, many alsocarried a full complement of the toolsthey may need for any given situation.All of the officers were given special
training rifles andblank ammunition.Having been giventheir orders, the teamsbegan to make theirway into the mall.
A large part of thetraining exercisesis safety. Eachofficer involved issearched for any realammunition thatcould get accidentlyused in the heat of thebattle. Also, each oneof the actors that is given a weapon is checked.For the safety of all involved, there are alwaysofficers on the scene, but not involved in thetraining, that are armed with real and lethalmunitions.
In a real situation, often the officers would not all be on the sceneat the same time. Therefore, in this training exercise the officerswere sent in to the scene in small groups, as if they were arrivingfrom their own home communities.
First into the scene were un iformed Salem police officers whowere the first to encounter the armed terrorists, played by trainingofficers. From their placements, they could see one of the armedmen along with a hostage. The hostage was duct taped to a chair
and placed between two IED’s.The Special Operations unit began to go in. Making their way
inside they encountered a terrorist that was using hostages in anattempt to get out of the mall. The terrorist began to open fire onthe police and the running hostages. The terrorist was shot andincapacitated. Although the hostages were wounded, all eventuallywere carried or helped out.
The Special Ops unit continued to make its way closer to thescene. Once the terrorist was contacted by Special Ops, the terroristdemanded a cell phone. At first, he demanded to speak to thepresident of the United States. Eventually, he did make contact witha police negotiator located in the operations vehicle on the scene.
The terrorist beganto shoot his hostages,as they tried to escape.This caused the specialops unit to attack thescene and take out theterrorist.
During the frontalattack one of theofficers was shot. Theother officers wereable to drag the injuredofficer to safety.
Once the bad guyswere cuffed andsecured, the specialops unit made a sweepof all the storefrontsensuring that they hadeveryone and the areawas safe.All this took over two
and a half hours. This was a controlled situation where no one washurt. However, the men of the Southern New Hampshire SpecialOperations Unit showed that they are prepared for the time whenthe real thing might happen.
