BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN In depth experience in manual physical therapy and Conway’s Leanne Smith is fi red up and ready to go the Feldenkrais Method to guide you to health, as she gets ready to compete in the women’s super G balance & freedom from pain. today in the Vancouver Winter Olympics at Whistler Connie Slater, PT, GCFP Mountain. 637 Main St. Fryeburg • 207-935-9200 It was supposed to be Smith’s fi nal event of the Games, but after a strong showing in the slalom por- tion of Thursday’s super-combined, she may have earned another event, the slalom, planned for Friday. Smith, 22, the daughter of Paula and Joe Smith of Conway, fi nished 21st overall and was the third American fi nisher in Thursday’s supe- combined. The event combines downhill and slalom. “I talked with Joe (Thursday night), and one of the ski technicians said the coaches really liked her slalom,” Dave Gregory, Smith’s former coach on the Mount Washington Valley Ski Team, who was on the slope for the downhill portion of the super combined race, said. “I know the team is looking a little thin in that event right now. As of (Thursday night) no one knew if Leanne or Alice McKinnis would get that fi nal slalom start. It could very well go to Leanne, especially after she skied so well Thursday.” Gregory plans to watch Smith race today in super G and then return home to Intervale the following day. Smith was planning to leave the Games tomor- row, too. “She’s supposed to head to Aspen on (tomorrow) for NorAms and then head back to Europe for World Leanne Smith hopes to medal today.

NBCOlympics.com also offers video, but after the result. Gregory is looking for strong showing from Smith today. “She’s got her fi rst Olympic event under her belt and it was a solid performance,” he said. “I’m sure she’ll be on a mission Saturday (in the super G). She was at a tremendous disadvan- tage in the super com- bined not having been able to run the downhill the day before. (Satur- day) the playing fi eld is totally level; no one has seen the course before- hand. I think she’s really going to be motivated the rest of this season.

The Bartlett Historical Society celebrated the 80-year history of the town’s 13 active ski clubs at a talk held Jan. 17 at the Hickory Hawks in Glen that was jointly hosted by their neighboring club, the Innitou Ski Runners. Among the 13 clubs represented at the forum were the Penguins (left) of Route 302, the Polecats (right) of Route 16-A, and the Skidaddlers (below) of Route 302.

BARTLETT — Cheap lodging. Like-minded people who love to ski. Sitting around the fi replace after a day of skiing. Rambling old converted farmhouses. Hearty meals. Great social gatherings. Even once-a- year spring ice bars. That’s the popular image of ski clubs. But a larger picture about ski clubs and their role in the local economy over the years emerged at a well- received talk on the history of ski clubs organized by the Bartlett Historical Society and presented at the old Glen Depot by the Innitou Ski Runners and Hickory Hawks Ski Club last month. All of the 13 active ski clubs in Bartlett par- ticipated, and it was a standing-room-only event lourie of the Lawrencians; Leo Ryan of the Hickory Hawks; at the amateur and club level.

Begin- ner terrain would have extended onto the lower slopes of Mount Tremont, and a ski touring trail was planned from the summit of Mount Saunders to the abandoned townsite of Livermore. It is unclear why this 1964 plan did not take shape, but by that time planning was under way for Attitash. Among the original people involved with Attitash were Phil Robertson, recently retired as manager of Mount Cranmore, and Thad Thorne, a veteran of the 10th Mountain and Wildcat. Robertson had exten- sive ski area experience. He had been involved with the original over- head cable lift in the valley (one of the fi rst two in the country), installed at the Moody Farm in Jackson in 1935. (The designer of the lift, George Morton, was a Bartlett mechanic and engineer who later invented the Skimobile.) As manager at Cran- more Robertson had a hand in the development of the earliest ski area grooming system known in the United States. Attitash opened in Jan- uary 1965, calling itself “the red carpet ski area” for its customer service focused on limiting lift lines by limiting ticket sales. In an era of 30- or 45-minute lift lines this was an appealing phi- losophy, but was quietly dropped by the end of the decade.

from preceding page that they went on to be pretty good neighbors,” said Ryan, now a resident of Jackson. He regaled all with many a tale, including that the late Bartlett icon Hellen Hayes once served as their club’s cook for many years. “She was our ‘frat house mother,’ ” laughed Ryan, always one for the telling of a good story. “She had just retired when I came along, and we thought she might start taking it easy. Well, she stopped by, saying she had picked up our mail at the post offi ce. She was then 90, and she was driving senior citizens around Bartlett to their medical appointments!” ••• Mount Washington Valley in general, and Bartlett in particular, has seen a concentration of the clubs over the years, said presenting speaker Jeff Leich of the New England Ski Museum at the Jan. 17 gathering. Leich, of North Conway, and a Dartmouth grad- uate, said he was never a ski clubber but that he “married into the Prospectors Ski Club.” He provided an overview on Bartlett’s role in ski history and of the Eastern Inter-Club Ski League — including that the fi rst freestyle competition in the country was hosted at Attitash by Peter Pinkham (now of Pinkham Real Estate) in 1966, Attitash’s second year of operation. He also said that Eastern Inter-Club Ski League is “best known in ski history circles for hosting the fi rst World Cup in the United States at Cannon Mountain in 1967.” “Putting on a World Cup has got to be a tremen- dous undertaking, and it’s got to be the last time that a ski club put on a World Cup,” quipped Leich, adding, “It also was the last time that one person swept a World Cup, as did future 1968 Olympics Among Bartlett’s old ski areas was the Intervale Ski Area, located behind the New England Inn off Route 16-A.

from preceding page back to the 1950s. There are no fast food joints only small family style restaurants and dinners with names like Grandma’s Place. Old fashioned tourist camps can still be found along the highway. Sadly, many of these are falling into disrepair. Tourist cabins are rapidly disappearing from the landscape and before to long they will only be a memory. I won- dered, as I drove by these places, if it might not be a good idea for someone to document and photograph them before they go the way of the dodo bird. This may not be a bad idea for a book; I bet there are some good stories that could be told. Once past Whitefi eld you come down into the Con- FREE STANDARD necticut River Valley. This day the river was the DELIVERY,HOOK-UP & same color as the sky, a slate gray. Just like here HAUL-AWAY in our valley there was not a lot of snow. Last years corn stocks poked through the thin layer of snow giving the fi elds a yellow stubble. Across the river all appliances & floorcare the Green mountains of Vermont looked just as gray as the river. I passed several places on the river where I knew there was some good fi shing to be had. The river didn’t look all that inviting this day. Abandoned farm houses next to faded gray barns with caved in roofs dot the landscape. Not that long ago this valley was home to dozens of large diary farms. A few farms still manage to hang on and I passed by one very active one that raised beef cattle. The large farm house was painted and the barn and other out build- ings were in fi ne shape; a rarity these days. Lancaster is a lovely little town with a wonderful main street that reminds me of my home town in Maine. There are few vibrant Main Streets left anywhere in America thanks to the invention of the mall and the box store. Lancaster is just rural enough to have escaped these infl ictions. I hope that it always stays that way. As I said it was a gray day and I guess it made me feel that way as well, but that all changed when I turned onto, the appropriately named, Fish Pond Road and arrived at the Grimes home. I spent the next couple of hours with Ken and Mary talking fi shing and of course fl y tying and that will brighten up anybody’s day. But that, as they say, is a story for another day.

But that is only a small part of the benefi t, said partner Tom Kugel of Café Noche. “While donations are a part of the program, educating visitors and locals alike about our natural beauty and the steps that are being taken to save it is a big reason to be part of the program,” Kugel said. Larry Baima and Leslie Fletcher, owners of The Thompson House Eatery said they decided to participate in this program “because of a committed personal interest in the preser- vation of the beautiful spaces that make our living environment so special. It is also a vital part of maintaining our customer base, people who enjoy the outdoors, cyclists, skiers, hikers, climbers, and walkers. We think it is important to remind people that nothing will always be ‘just as you remembered it’ unless we make sure that it is, especially when it comes to poten- tial development of scenic places.” When asked why he decided to join the Contribute To Place program, Cort Hansen of Ragged Mountain Equipment said, “To help support local land conservation efforts along with helping maintain the valley view resources.” While there were some chal- lenges at the beginning, Hansen said, “All the employees are very sup- portive of the effort and vocal in their endorse- ment of the program with customers. Several customers have voiced support for the program and our involvement with Upper Saco Valley Land Trust and told us that they were pleased that we were involved.” Steve Mannik of Attitash Grand Summit Hotel recently said, “Our guests come to the area to play outside.

HOME OF THE WEEK MORTGAGE$ Getting homebuyer tax credit may be harder than you think

BY WILLIAM KUGEL As we head into the heart of “tax season” one of the most frequently asked questions I am get- ting this year is about the new Homebuyer Tax Credit. Those that have recently purchased a home need to know the mechanics of how to fi le and receive their tax credit. Those who are still contemplating a purchase (within the upcoming deadline) are asking for details as well. In this article, I will address the signifi cant bits of infor- mation each will need to know. First, let me review the key deadlines ahead for those who have not yet purchased a home and have a desire to take advantage of the new tax credit. You still have time. You can avail your- self of the tax credit if you are “under contract” to purchase a home by April 30 of this year and will close the transaction by June 30.

CONSTRUCTION from page 53

the Northeast and an 8.9 percent increase in the West. Construction was up a smaller 1 percent in the South and 3.2 percent in the Midwest. The strength in January pushed construction activity up by 21.1 percent from the pace in Janu- ary 2009. Last month’s building rate the fastest pace since July. Construction of single-family homes rose by 1.5 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 484,000 units while construction of multi-family units increased 9.2 percent to an annual rate of 107,000 units. The National Association of Home Builders said Tuesday that its housing market index rose by two points to 17 in February after having fallen for two consecutive months. That increase in sentiment was likely infl uenced by a number of favorable developments includ- ing a report earlier this month that the nation’s unemployment rate fell in January to 9.7 percent, still high, but lower than the 10 percent of the pre- vious month. In other favorable developments, mortgage rates are hovering around 5 percent, pushed down by a Federal Reserve program to buy mortgage-backed securities. And builders say they are also seeing a boost in the demand for homes coming from a government stimulus program. That program pro- vides tax credits of up to $8,000 for fi rst-time home buyers and up to $6,500 for current homeowners who decide to move. Bob Jones, chairman of the home builders, said builders were “slightly more optimistic that the housing recovery is fi nally beginning to take root.”
