Please plan your trips accordingly. The Sandwich Transfer Station is now using single- stream recycling. Single- stream is new and different from how we have collected recyclables for the past 29 years, and like anything new, there are some questions as- sociated with it. Single- stream recycling makes it al- most as easy to use the recy- cling bin as it is to use the trashcan. Transitions can be difficult, especially when you may only visit the Trans- fer Station a few times a year. We ask that everyone give the Transfer Station Staff and each other a little extra patience and understanding as we work through these new procedures.

In addition to the lack of sidewalks, shoul- ders are not consistently wide enough to provide ade- quate safety for bicyclists or pedestrians.” The report said the group had looked at alternatives to sidewalks on Route 25, in- cluding possible off-road links to the schools and drop- off locations for students in more rural areas to walk or bike. The Police Department and the Advisory Group also reviewed the trails around the schools. The trails going from Moultonboro Academy to Laconia Savings Bank was the only one decided to be safe due to no lighting, su- pervision, and visibility on the other trails. Sidewalk installation is the biggest project recom- mended by the report, call- ing for sidewalks within a one-mile radius of the schools especially on Routes 25 and 109 and Blake Road. Other recommendations on the plan carry lower costs to no costs, including having drop-offs, where parents will drop off students at a central location so they can walk or bike the rest of the way to school.

However, composites are tech- nically much more difficult and time consuming to place than amalgam (silver) fillings. As a result they are more expensive. There are also some limitations with regard to placement in larger cavities on back teeth – in that context, they may not be as strong as other alternatives such as amalgam or gold fill- ings.

On Saturday, area stu- dents took the stage as part of Kids on Stage’s spring production entitled “I Won’t Grow Up.” The theme of this spring’s play was growing up with songs such as “I Won’t Grow Up” and “Let Them Be Little” with skits on responsibilities, prepar- ing for the future, and en- joying life through the process. The play was open to stu- dents in grades three through five, though more younger students signed up for the play than older stu- dents.

Sanders wielded a blow-up guitar and played rock star during some num- bers. After the perform- ance, he got to keep his guitar. “It was really fun,” he said. “It was very interest- ing, I think it’s just an amaz- ing feeling.” Hannah Finnegan of Moultonboro was the oldest performer at 11. Finnegan sang her fa- vorite song “Son of a Preacher Man” and con- tributed vocals to other songs in the production. This was her third Kids on Stage experience and she said she enjoyed working with the cast of younger students. “I’ve never had the younger kids look up to me and ask me what to do,” she said. “It’s thrilling to see her sing and this is her passion: singing, dancing, being on stage,” said Hannah’s moth- er Stephanie Finnegan. “It’s nice seeing her up there doing something she really enjoys doing. “ Kids on Stage is part of Moultonboro’s Recreation Department. Students can take part for a small tuition, though scholarships are available. Kids on Stage puts on two shows a year, one in the spring and another in the fall.

Ellen Ward, chair, and Lisa Bladecki, co-chair, are responsible for the Fresh Air Fund in the Lakes Region and are available to provide guidance to host families who reside here. The purpose of this pro- gram is to give inner-city kids a chance to explore as- pects of life that they aren’t familiar with, to experience new things and to breathe some fresh air. In order to qualify for the Fresh Air va- cation the children must re- ceive free or reduced lunch in NYC. Currently, there are thou- sands of children ready to be set up with families, but there are not thousands of homes for them to be matched up with. “It’s not all glitz, glamour, and fun,” said Ward empha- sizing that even the small things can have a very posi- tive influence on a child.
