Report of Tourist Information Booth To the Town of Gorham, N.H. We hereby submit our report of the Gorham Information Booth for the summer and fall months of 1967. The booth was open for a longer period this year having started the weekend of June 3-4, and operated on a regular season from June 10th through September 10th, making an additional three weeks on the regular season. It continued to operate fall weekends through the long Columbus Day weekend, being open Sept 16-17; 23-24, Sept. 30.-Oct. 1, Oct. 7-8; and October 12-13-14-15, 1967. Hours of operation continued the same, 8:30 A.M. to 8:30 P.M. June 3 through Sept. 10th, and 9:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. during the fall weekends. The booth remained at its new location on Gorham Common and was improved by the addition of public restrooms. The telephone company installed a pay booth nearby. On the whole the booth was not as busy this season as they were in 1966 but because of the longer operating season more tourists were serviced by 375 cars and 983 persons. Hawaii was the only one of the fifty states not represented. The ten Canadian provinces were again represented as well as thirty-two foreign countries, being an increase in foreign countries of thirteen over last year's figures. Possibly Expo 67 in Montreal was responsible for this increase in foreign tourists this year. Details are as follows:

Report of Recreation Commission

To the Inhabitants of the Town of Gorham:

The Recreation Commission, a five-man board appointed by the Selectmen, is in its eighteenth year of operation. The Gorham Rec- reation Department is now in its eleventh year-round recreation program. The 1967 attendance records show an increase in the number of people who have found varied and attractive activities in the Dept. program—some programs have increased while others have decreased but a balance has been maintained and new activities have been added. The great majority of the participants in the program have shown their appreciation for opportunities they have had in this respect through continued participation, and through letters and remarks directed to the Recreation Dept. during the year.

Once again this year, we have endeavored to fulfill any requests made of us within the limitations of our abilities and budget appropriations. Through the cooperation and continued interest of the various individuals, organizations and departments who have helped, by working together for common good and the improvement of our leisure time opportunities, it has been possible to submit this report of our progress during the past year. We solicit your continued help and cooperation through the years to come. Our most sincere thanks to one and all.

Respectfully submitted,

TED D. WALKER, Supt. of Recreation MAURICE A. THURLOW, Chairman REUELL A. LEAVITT GEORGE BLUNDEN PHILLIP K. ROSS, JR.* JOHN DALPHONSE*

**Given Senior Life Saving Tests only.

***One Beginner taught the preliminary phases of swimming- other five were given corrective instructions on stroke and kick technique (new style).

The swimming pool was open 70 days, 26 of which the weather was inclement or cold. For this reason many children did not con- tinue with their lessons and were not tested at the end of the season. 65

Cascade children were transported to the swimming pool Tues- day and Thursday mornings for swimming lessons and afternoons Monday through Friday for general swimming. The 11th Annual Swim Meet was held August 14th. TOTAL ATTENDANCE—26,921
