NEW DURHAM — Visitors to the New Durham 1772 Meetinghouse this Sat- urday as part of New Durham Day will have an opportunity to tour the struc- ture, once the seat of government and religious life. The Meetinghouse, surrounded by farms, taverns, stagecoach stops, a grist mill, and the first library, functioned as the Town Hall and the home church for Rev. Benjamin Randal, founder of the Freewill Baptist Church. Many elements of its past are visible today, especially in the hand-cut ceil- ing lathe and finishing work done in 1848. Signatures of past selectmen adorn one horsehair plaster wall. In addition to tours of the building, the Meetinghouse Restoration Commit- tee has created a display of information and pictures to follow the building’s progress toward becoming a heritage center, a proportioned 3D replica of the structure, and an array of Native American artifacts. Meetinghouse Park includes the historic Stone Pound, the town’s oldest cemetery, nature trails, picnic tables, a vernal pool, and a Story Walk, all of Courtesy which are open to the public. This was the New Durham 1772 Meetinghouse before a group of volunteers spearheaded a The Open House is from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. and includes an invitation to ex- town movement in the 1980s to save the building.

SECTION A, PAGE 4 THE BAYSIDER, THURSDAY, AUGUST 5, 2021 Olympic trivia It’s nice to have a distraction from the roller- coaster that was 2020, with the summer Olympics plastered all over television and social media. Watching athletes from all over the globe show off what they’ve been training for shows us all what can be possible when we set a goal. One of our own, Sports Editor Josh Spaulding, is in To- kyo as we speak covering the games. Keeping up with his adventures, of course, has been different than his time at the Olympic Games in previous years due to COVID protocols. With that said, we thought it would be interesting to share some Olympic trivia. In 1998, Surya Bonaly, a figure skater from France fell during the winter games in Nagano. Since she knew she lost a chance to medal, she decided to do a move that had been banned since 1976. She did a backflip and landed on the blade of one skate. No one has attempted the trick since then, making her Olympic performance, one to re- member. From 1912 through 1954, individuals could earn medals for art, as long as it was inspired by a sport of some kind. The art could include painting, lit- erature, sculpture or music. Eventually, this was tossed out, as most professional artists sell their work to earn a living. In 2002, during the Winter Olympics, speed skater Steven Bradbury of Australia was racing in the 1,000 meter short track finals and was lag- ging behind. During the race, the leaders crashed into each other, leaving Bradbury far enough be- hind to avoid the collision. He was able to skate by and win gold.

The first modern Olympic Marathon (26.2-mile Courtesy road race) took place in 1904. Most of the runners had never run that far before. One competitor Alton Garden Club gets warm welcome at Studley’s showed up to the start line in dress pants. Four- The Alton Garden Club would like to thank Studley’s Flower Gardens in Rochester for hosting our July meeting. David Meulenbroek teen out of the 32 racers were able to finish. One graciously shared the facilities and his knowledge with us regarding building and maintaining “Koi Ponds.” Studley’s has a racer, Fred Lorz who won, actually jumped in a car for 11 miles of it due to a cramp. Another wonderful koi pond for their customers to view and enjoy. He recommended the appropriate plantings for around and in the runner, Felix Carvajal ate a rotten apple halfway water. We even fed the many fish that lined up waiting for their treat. Following the meeting we had our own “cookie swap” through and stopped to take a nap. He finished provided by our members. If you can’t travel to a vacation location, we recommend stopping off at Studley’s Gardens fourth. The gold officially was given to Thomas located in downtown Rochester at 82 Wakefield St. The scenery is lovely, and the employees are willing to share their Hicks who was carried over the finish line having knowledge and answer your questions. Buy a lovely perennial plant as a souvenir for you to enjoy and remember for years hallucinations that he had 20 more miles to go. to come.
