Hampton returned to her homeport in San Diego, Oct.

11, 2015 after her latest deploy-ment in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of responsibility where the crew executed the Chief of Naval Operations’ Maritime Strategy in supporting national security interests and maritime secu-rity operations. Hampton left her homeport March 14, 2015 and steamed more than 41,000 nautical miles during the de-

ployment. Port visits were con-ducted in Okinawa, Japan; Yo-kosuka, Japan; Sasebo, Japan; and Guam.

Additionally, Hampton participated in POLEX 2016 including surfacing through the ice at the North Pole on March 31. For more than a month prior to the surfacing, Hampton representing the Pa-cific Fleet, along with USS Hampton (SSN 768) from the Atlantic Fleet conducted mul-tiple transits, surfacing and diving operations through the ice, and tactical exercises under the ice. Together they traveled more than 10,000 miles under the Arctic ice.

PORTSMOUTH -Have you ever gotten car-

ried away when shopping for herbs only to arrive at your own garden with a flat of pots and no idea how to plant, harvest or use them? Let Lauriejane Kelley from Steeplebush Farm Herbs help you out. Visit Strawbery Banke Visitor Center (14 Han-cock Street, Portsmouth) on Tuesday, May 31 at 7 p.m. for her lecture on cultivating, har-vesting and using herbs. Her talk will include both well-known and unusual herbs. Learn what herbs need to thrive, when to harvest them for best flavor and color; how to dry them ef-fectively, and how to use them. This program includes a hands-on discussion of these plants with an opportunity to touch and experience their fragrant qualities. Bring a notebook and your questions! Potted plants will be offered for sale at the end of the evening.

This program is part of 2016 lecture series hosted by the Herb Society of America

Why Did I Plant This and What Do I Do with It?

NorthEast Seacoast Unit and co-sponsored by Strawbery Banke Museum. Admission is $9 ($7 for Strawbery Banke and Herb Society members). Pre-registration is required. To register, contact Rie Sluder at 603-642-7034 or email her at [email protected]. This e-mail address is protected from spambots. You will need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Kelley is the owner of Steeplebush Farm Herbs in Limington, Maine, where she has grown and worked with herbs for over thirty years. Her fascination and love of herbs began in 1978 with a gift of three herbs (chives, mint and artemisia) from a friend. That spurred an interest which has resulted in a collection of over

350 varieties of herbs and heir-loom perennials. Her days are filled with the care of her many gardens, harvesting herbs, crafting culinary products, drying flowers, and making wreaths, potpourri, and bath and body care products. Visit her website (www.steeplebush.com) for more information about her farm and products.

The NorthEast Seacoast Unit, one of forty-six regional units of The Herb Society of America, is a nonprofit orga-nization that focuses on the history, cultivation and uses of herbs as flavoring agents; medicinal, fragrant and dye plants; ornamentals in garden design; household aids; and economic plants supplying products for modern industry. They are committed to prac-ticing environmentally sound horticulture. To learn more visit their website at www.NorthEastSeacoastUnit.org or visit them on Facebook.

PORTSMOUTH After excelling in regional

and state academic tourna-ments, New Heights’ Savage Cabbages team has traveled to Knoxville, TN to compete in Destination Imagination’s Global Finals from May 25 – May 28.

Billed as “the world’s largest celebration of student creativity,” the international competition will include teams from 20 countries, including 41 from the Granite State. New Heights STEM Coordinator Wayne Moulton is traveling with the students this week, which begins with a 19-hour bus ride from Nashua.

The competition began on Wednesday afternoon where New Heights presented its solution to the “Get a Clue” challenge, one of seven open-ended challenges. The solution requires that students apply science, technology, engineer-ing and math (STEM) skills

in addition to skills related to improvisation, theater arts, writing, project management, communication, innovation, teamwork, community service and social entrepreneurship.

“The students — all 8th and 9th graders — have been working on and refining their solution since December,” Moulton added. “I’m excited to see how things go.”

According to Moulton, the students will also have “the incredible opportunity” to meet a variety of exhibitors at the competition, includ-ing companies like Microsoft, NASA, Disney, Google and others. The team will also have a chance to meet with their “Buddy Team” from China.

“We’ll exchange gifts, see each other perform, and learn about our cultures,” he said. “This is an opportunity for us and more than 1,400 teams and 8,000 students from around the world to experience something

HAMPTON -When Hampton’s 3rd

graders from Marston Elemen-tary School visit the Hampton Historical Society (HHS) at 40 Park Avenue in early June, they’ll tour the historic Leavitt Barn, which is now a history museum.

HHS volunteers disman-tled the barn, previously at the corner of Drakeside and Lafay-ette roads, in 2004, and reas-sembled it in 2007, after raising sufficient funds to preserve the 220-year old structure, which was in good condition.

As a history museum, the barn tells the stories of Hamp-

ruled the airwaves.“This event is a true com-

munity collaborative effort in the fight against hunger,” says Torey Kortz, Executive Direc-tor of the SHARE Fund, which operates Gerry’s Food Pantry. “Wings & Wheels is the largest fundraiser of the year for the Food Pantry and involves city government, businesses, civic and faith-based organizations, nonprofits, and youth groups all coming together to create a fun family atmosphere for all ages to enjoy.”

Admission is a donation to Gerry’s Food Pantry, the largest provider of free food resources in the local com-munity, alleviating hunger for thousands every year. Make your plans now to be at Wings & Wheels at Skyhaven Airport on June 4th! Generously spon-sored by Bank of New Hamp-shire, Pease Airport Manage-ment, and Hagan’s Motor Pool.

with life-changing potential.”Janice Hastings, director

of Development & Marketing at New Heights, said none of these opportunities would be possible without support from the community.

Our Destination Imagina-tion Global Sponsors include 53 community members and Highland Hardwoods from Brentwood,” Hastings said. “Their financial support is providing our youth with an incredible experience. We are incredibly grateful.”

Highwood Hardwoods’ Anne Holiday said they sup-ported the team, because they value and understand the im-portance of STEM program-ming.

“We were pleased to be able to support the New Heights DI team as they travel to Knoxville for the global competition,” she said. “We see this $7,500 donation as tuition to prepare our future work-force. We are thrilled with the programming and opportunity Hew Heights continues to pro-vide.”

As for how he thinks the team will do once all is said and done, Moulton said the sky is the limit.

“Dream big and do great things,” he said. “We encour-age our students to think posi-tively and this is no exception. We will do the best we can — and that’s all I can ask of our team.”

“We have on display the different tools that were used to make work more productive, and life back then a little bit easier,” said Ben Moore, HHS board member who serves as a guide for the elementary school barn tours.

PORTSMOUTH -Friends of Portsmouth

Harbor Lighthouses is holding a special event, “Lighthouses & Keepers: A Symposium,” on June 4, 1 to 5 p.m., at the Kittery Lions Club, 117 State Road, Kit-tery. The program will include:

Russ Lane Jr.’s documen-tary “Looking for a Hero,” about the rescue his father performed as Coast Guard lighthouse keeper at Whitehead Island in Maine in 1958.

Marian Gagnon will pres-ent her documentary “America’s Forgotten Heroine: Ida Lewis, Keeper of the Light.” The Em-my-nominated film brings to life the extraordinary story of Ida Zoradia Lewis, America’s most famous woman lighthouse keeper.

Frederick Mikkelsen will give a presentation titled, “Checked Main Light - Light-house Life in the 1950s”, on his days as a Coast Guard light-house keeper, Bob Trapani, Jr., executive director of the Ameri-can Lighthouse Foundation, and Jeremy D’Entremont, founder of

Lighthouse Symposium

Friends of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses, will speak about the mission of these organiza-tions to preserve our lighthouses and their history.

Proceeds will benefit the American Lighthouse Foun-dation and its local chapter, Friends of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses. Refreshments will be available, and a silent auction and raffle will be held.

Admission is $15 per person, $25 for two. A private tour of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouse is also offered 10 a.m. - noon.

Advance reservations are recommended, but not required. FMI: www.portsmouthharbor-lighthouse.org.

HAMPTON -Join the Hampton His-

torical Society History Book Group for its next discussion about women’s lives during and immediately following the Rev-olutionary War. The group will discuss “Founding Mothers” by Cokie Roberts. The meet-ing will take place on Sunday, June 5, at 4 p.m. at the Tuck Museum in Hampton. Barbara Tosiano, Director of the Hamp-ton Falls Free Library, will lead the discussion.

As always, Tosiano will prepare a baked item represen-tative of the time. Those who attend can enjoy Sally Lunn bread, named for its supposed creator, an 18th century Eng-lish woman. The comforting yeast bread is typically served in southern restaurants such as those in Colonial Williams-burg. All are welcome.

Having previously dis-cussed books about the Revo-lutionary War, World War I and World War II, the group decided to focus its next talk on people, rather than on an event,

according to Tosiano.“‘Founding Mothers’ will

give us the opportunity to talk about the many women who helped establish the country, including those who are better known such as Martha Wash-ington, Abigail Adams and Mercy Otis Warren,” said To-siano.

“Roberts also writes about lesser known women such as Deborah Sampson, who disguised herself as a man in order to fight in the war, and the Molly Pitcher ladies, who got their name from the water they dispensed from pitchers they carried on the battlefields,” she contin-ued.

Women took on all sorts of jobs, from running the farms and shops while the men were away fighting, to writing propaganda in sup-port of the war, to organizing boycotts of British goods.

Did you know that Martha Washington wore homespun dresses instead of dresses made from British

fabric to make a statement? Or that Mercy Otis Warren was a propagandist along with Sam Adams and Thomas Paine, and that she also wrote plays that were read, rather than performed, because of her Puritan religion? Or that the Molly Pitchers were really informal battlefield nurses? These are just a few of the in-teresting facts to be learned at the next History Book Group discussion.

History Book Group to Discuss “Founding Mothers”

Dear Computer Lady,I have backed up my files

and system on carbonate. Is this adequate before I install Windows 10? Thanks, A

Dear A,Yes, as long as you have

all your important files backed up on Carbonite, you will have them available to you in the event you lose files during the Windows 10 upgrade. I would check Carbonite first to make sure your files are available, then go ahead with the Win-dows 10 upgrade. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady,Hi ... I’m a long time fan.

Thanks for your newsletter and web site, great info! The other day I was listening on the radio to a tech show and the host said that once you get Win 10 that you no longer need a virus/malware protection program because they have “finally” made the Windows Defender do what it is sup-posed to do. And that it pro-tects the computer faster than any virus protector can and it works at the very heart of your internet connection. And that another virus protector would slow your machine down. I have never been without virus protection and am a little leery of removing my program. Can this work? Thanks in advance, Ginnie

Dear Ginnie,While the Windows De-

fender program that comes with every version of Windows is better than no antivirus, tests

show that it does not perform as well as many other security programs. If you want to see for yourself, you can check out the independent tests of Anti-Virus software at: http://www.av-comparatives.org/dynamic-tests/. I will continue to use my antivirus software with Win-dows 10. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady,In my windows 7 when I

click on the bookmarks tab at the top of my page, in the drop down list, I cannot delete any bookmarks. I use windows 7 classic shell, and Firefox. There was a time when I could right click on an un-used book-mark and then delete it, now I can’t. Nothing happens when I right click. Is there a way to fix it? Mary

Dear Mary,While I can’t tell you how

to fix this problem without first figuring out what is causing the right-click to stop working, I

can give you some other meth-ods of deleting bookmarks in Firefox. If you want to delete a single bookmark in Firefox, first, click on the bookmark to go to that page, then click on the star icon as is you were going to bookmark the page, and click on the button that says, “Remove Bookmark”. Another way, which also allows you to delete more than one book-mark at a time is to click on the Bookmarks button and click on “Show All Bookmarks”. Select one or more bookmarks to be deleted, then click “Organize” in the menu bar and “Delete” in the drop down menu.Elizabeth

The production, “Curious George: The Golden Meatball”, takes place on Friday, June 3 at 7 p.m. at the Rochester Opera House (ROH) in Rochester.

All-You-Can-Eat Meat-ball Day came just once a year. George had been waiting all month for that day, a day almost bigger than his birth-day! On Meatball Day, George helped his friend Chef Pisghetti cook some delicious meatballs, and serve them to the hungry crowd. But this year, the crowd had vanished! Something was keeping people away. Some-thing pretty big.

And that “something” was Phinneas T. Lightspeed and his speedy Meatballs O’Matic machine. In despair,

Curious George: The Golden Meatball

Chef Pisghetti vows to cook no more. Determined to help his friend, George goes on a mission to enter the Chef’s meatballs in the world-famous Golden Meatball Contest... in Rome.

With every swing and flip, George takes the audience through a fun-filled adventure in which he learns more about Rome... and meatballs... and the “secret ingredient” to cooking.

This production was originally directed and choreo-graphed by Marcia Milgrom Dodge (Broadway’s Ragtime, Theatreworks USA’s Suessical). The show features costumes by Tracy Christenson (Lortel nomi-nee for Theatreworks’ Seussical) with sets by Michael Schwei-kardt. Tickets are available at www.rochesteroperahouse.com, 603-335-1992, and two hours prior to showtime.

ROCHESTER -The Franklin Gallery at

RiverStones Custom Framing, 33 N. Main Street in Rochester, will host “Art and Life,” featur-ing works by Rochester artist Amy E. Kindler, for the month of June during regular business hours. Kris Ebbeson, the pro-prietor of RiverStones Custom Framing and manager of the Franklin Gallery, will host an opening reception on Saturday, June 4, noon - 2 p.m. The public is invited to see the exhibit and meet the artist. Light refresh-ments will be served.

Kindler has been a fine artist, craftsman, and interior designer since 1970. She received her B.F.A from Maryland Insti-tute College of Art and has taken advanced art courses at UNH and the Arts Students League in New York City. Her artistic career has included working as a set designer and scene painter, a toy sculptor and designer, and a 3-D animation artist. Kindler has skill in all paint mediums, most sculpture mediums, all

drawing mediums on many sur-faces, many printmaking me-diums, and varied craft experi-ence.

“I’ve been selling my art and taking commissions my whole adult life,” says Kindler. “My art includes portraits, fig-ures, landscape, animals, still life, interiors, spiritual art of an abstract manner, nature de-tails. I use oils, acrylics, water-color, gouache, pencil, colored pencil, pastels, oil pastels and conté. I also use leather as an art medium.”

“I like to think my work is organic,” continues Amy, “pur-poseful yet intentionally seek-ing asymmetric subtle passages, often only fragments of a greater whole. I also play with shadows and movement throughout the piece.”

Kinder’s vision is subjec-tive, but by no means random. She chooses images of hope, truth, unity, freedom and beauty.

“I wanted to write an ad-aptation of Hansel and Gretel which focused more on the re-ciprocal effects involving the mistreatment or manipulation of another human being during childhood or otherwise.

than one A Cappella group? That would be two A CAP-PELLA groups. So when Tuck-ermans at 9 returns June 3 to the “Friday LIVE at the First” concert series, [mix]tape will be there to get the party started. A portion of the show’s ticket sales will support ongoing res-toration work at Dover’s histor-ic First Parish Congregational Church. “We had a blast there last year,” says Tuckermans at 9 founder and baritone Mark Miller. “Can’t wait to get back, especially with [mix]tape open-ing the show. When we discov-ered them just a few months ago, we knew we wanted to col-laborate.”

Since 2004, Tuckermans at 9 – called “T9” for short by fans – has performed contem-porary a cappella versions of well-known pop, rock, blues, and light jazz, from mainly the 1960s to today. Voices make all the music, including what sounds like brass, electric gui-tars, and drums. Like T9, Sea-coast New Hampshire-based [mix]tape uses no instruments or pre-recorded tracks. Formed

in 2015, [mix]tape satisfies their audiences’ eclectic inter-ests by “[mix]-ing up” a broad range of music from the 1950s to the present, including rock, folk, jazz, oldies, doo-wop, and newer pop hits.

New material in the T9 pipeline includes Rockapel-la’s heart-tugging “Don’t Tell Me You Do”, The Beatles’ “A Little Help from My Friends” a la Joe Cocker, and the moody Motown classic “I Heard It Through the Grapevine”. Adds Miller, “We’ll also offer Lionel Richie’s ‘All Night Long’, ‘Drift Away’ by Dobie Gray, and a medley of hits by the indie band Fun.” [mix]tape’s reper-toire ranges from Ed Sheeran’s “Wayfaring Stranger” and Counting Crows’ “Big Yellow

Taxi” to “Mr. Sandman” and “Shut Up and Dance”. Round-ing out T9’s New Hampshire roster are soprano Ashley Gove (Nashua), altos Kam Dam-toft (Durham) and Fran Lipe (New Durham), tenor Walt Porter (Brentwood), bass Bill Hersman (Durham), and vocal percussionist Tim Bull (Hamp-ton). Sound technicians are Tony Berke (Exeter) and Kevin Consaul (Nashua).

Admission: adults age 18 and over $10, children age 17 and under $5, or $25 Family Package for up to two adults age 18 and over accompanying children age 17 and under. Tickets at the church office M-F 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. and at the door. T9 info: tuck-ermansat9.com and facebook.com/TuckermansAt9.

hibition opening this summer at the Children’s Museum of New Hampshire entitled “Everything Under the Sun” will feature art depicting families exploring and enjoying outdoor activities. The exhibition opens to the public on June 4 and runs through Sep-tember 4.

As parents, when we think of summer, we might think of our own childhood playing at the beach, hiking through the woods or digging in a garden. Who would have imagined that we now have to encourage our children to go outside to play? But it’s estimated that kids spend between 40 and 60 hours per week on electronic devices, and

The United Nations rec-ognizes play as a right of every child. The American Academy of Pediatrics states that “play is essential to development be-cause it contributes to the cogni-tive, physical, social and emo-tional well-being of children and youth. The AAP goes on to say that “even those children who are fortunate enough to have abundant available resources and who live in relative peace may not be receiving the full benefits of play. Many are being raised in an increasingly hurried and pressured style that may limit the protective benefits they

would gain from play.”Everything Under the Sun

will feature artwork that cel-ebrates the unhurried happiness of outdoor play. Participating artists include picture book illus-trations by Gina Perry, whimsi-cal creations by Taylore Kelly, watercolor art by Yong Chen, photography by Tara Hamer and Debra Woodward, and work by Barbra Albert and Michal Smi-glowski.

An opening reception is scheduled for Tuesday, June 7 from 5:30-7 p.m. and is open to the public. The reception is only open to adults as the chil-dren’s exhibits will be closed for the evening. Participating artist Yong Chen will be doing a wa-tercolor demonstration during

the reception. The opening re-ception is sponsored by Optima Bank and Trust.

“Everything Under the Sun” can be viewed in Gallery 6 during regular business hours at the Children’s Museum of New Hampshire: Monday – Satur-day 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sunday noon-5 p.m. No admission fee is required to view the gallery only. Regular admission applies

for families who wish to also ex-plore the rest of the museum.

The not-for-profit Chil-dren’s Museum of New Hamp-shire is located in the center of Dover and offers two floors of hands-on, interactive exhibits.

RYE -Ocean enthusiasts and

community members are in-vited to attend the screening of Green Fire Production’s film, The Great Bear Sea. The film will be followed by a discus-sion about the New Hamp-shire Coastal Risk and Haz-ards Commission Report and the first-in-the-nation Region-al Ocean Plan, at the Seacoast Science Center on Tuesday, June 7, at 6:30 p.m.

Along British Columbia’s north Pacific coast, the Great Bear Sea is a wild expanse of ocean where whales, wolves, bears and humans thrive in rich coastal ecosystems. The Great Bear Sea is also a place where worlds collide – a place full of historic conflicts, emerging struggles over ocean resources, and globally lead-ing solutions. Now, 18 First Nations and the Province of British Columbia have crafted marine plans for the Great Bear Sea to protect marine ecosystems and build sustain-able coastal economies.

The Great Bear Sea is the latest film in Green Fire Productions’ award-winning series, Ocean Frontiers. Ocean Frontiers films are screening across the country and around the world to rave reviews. The films leave audiences with

A public meeting on the Commission Report will be held at the Seacoast Science Center on June 1st at 7pm; visit nhcrhc.stormsmart.org/draft-for-comment for meeting details.

Wendy Lull, President of the Seacoast Science Center, said, “We are proud to host New Hampshire’s premier screening of The Great Bear Sea. As a non-profit marine science education organiza-tion, we want everyone to un-

derstand that a healthy ocean drives our quality of life. As so beautifully shown in the film, no matter where you live, what you do every day inf luences the health of the ocean, and ocean health impacts our daily lives—from weather, to what we eat, where we live and how we play. The Great Bear Sea heralds a new era of steward-ship, and we hope you will join us for the film, for the discus-sion, and for the future of our seacoast and sea.”

This event is hosted by the Seacoast Science Center, a member of the New England Ocean Action Network, a di-verse group of organizations, individuals, and industries working together to promote new approaches to ocean management in our region based on collaboration, co-operation and sound science,

and by the Blue Ocean Soci-ety for Marine Conservation, Conservation Law Founda-tion, Green Fire Produc-tions, Gulf of Maine Marine Education Association, The Gundalow Company, New Hampshire Community Sea-food, Shoals Marine Labora-tory, and Star Island.

PORTSMOUTH - The much anticipated

reveal of Prescott Park Arts Festival’s 2016 season lineup was announced to the public recently after the traditional weeklong sneak preview held at the concert series’ sponsor, the River House Restaurant. The summer concert series is na-tionally known for presenting distinguished and powerhouse musical acts from a dynamic range of genres in a unique pic-turesque outdoor setting along the Piscataqua River, all on a suggested donation basis.

This non-profit arts orga-nization is celebrating its 42nd season this summer by wel-coming an all-star lineup of ac-claimed artists to the Seacoast that includes The Tallest Man on Earth, Bela Fleck & Chris Thile, Dawes, Shakey Graves, The Wood Brothers, Judy Col-lins & Ari Hest, Taj Mahal, and more on the Wilcox Industries Main Stage this summer.

PORTSMOUTH -Optima Bank & Trust, a lo-

cally-owned, commercial bank headquartered in Portsmouth, New Hampshire has invested $4,500 in the health of Straf-ford County residents. Optima Chairman, President & CEO, Daniel Morrison and Executive Vice President, Pamela Morri-son made the check presentation to Goodwin Community Health CEO, Janet Laatsch.

The donation was made by Optima purchasing the last available tax-credits awarded to Goodwin Community Health by the Community Develop-ment Finance Authority, taking Goodwin all the way to its $150,000 tax credit goal. The investment will support Good-win’s ability to meet the com-munity need for increased access to quality, integrated health care for some of the most the vulnera-ble residents of Strafford County. Some specific projects include improving communication sys-tems between staff and patients, improving workplace efficien-cies and expanding health care access to additional patients.

Goodwin Community Health currently provides health care to over 9,000 individuals, 76% are 150% of the Federal Pov-erty Level or lower. Their target

population is low income and uninsured residents of Strafford County. The Center receives on average 65 new patient intakes per month.

“Everyone deserves to have access to quality healthcare and through this tax credit donation, we will make our investment go even further. We are proud to support Goodwin in becoming even more efficient so that they can continue to do what they do best,” said Daniel Morrison, Chairman, President & CEO of Optima Bank & Trust.

With the help of the CDFA contributions, Goodwin would like to purchase a health infor-mation exchange license that would be used to link other health care providers (two hospi-tals, mental health care provider) together and begin to develop a ‘community record’ that will en-hance care coordination, reduce patient frustration and increase efficiencies and safety around the prescribing of controlled sub-stances.

“On behalf of our staff and patients, we are grateful for the support of community minded businesses like Optima Bank & Trust in helping us to reach our

ambitious tax credit goals,” said Janet Laatsch, CEO of Goodwin Community Health.

“Thousands of area fam-ily’s depend on us for access to everything form prenatal care to dental and behavioral health care. We couldn’t meet the demand without the generous support from our community.”

Goodwin Community Health is the only FQHC (Feder-ally Qualified Health Center) in the Strafford County area to pro-vide access to primary, dental, prenatal, and behavioral health care as well as community well-ness and public health services. Find them on Facebook or at GoodwinCH.org.

STATEWIDE -Formed in 2014 as a means

to connect smaller museums, each with its own unique and world-class collections and arti-facts, the Experience NH Herit-age Museum Trail has been for-tunate to receive support from several organizations. Located in Dover, craft brewery 7th Settlement has served as one such supporter, contributing to the missions of two muse-ums on the NH Heritage Trail Museum.

Wes LaFountain, ex-ecutive director of Woodman Museum in Dover, said work-ing with 7th Settlement was a real pleasure.

“Josh Henry and Nate Sephton from 7th Settlement were invested in the project from its inception,” he said. “They donated a percentage of sales from their Woodman IPA to the museum and also hosted a packed launch party. It was a

part of the Festival,” explained the Festival’s President, Ben An-derson, “Regardless of means, anyone and everyone can enjoy the same magical and high-qual-ity arts entertainment at Prescott Park. Our mission to provide this asset to the community has been steadfast and true.”

Leading off the star-studded season is the founding member of the progressive blue-grass group Nickel Creek, Sara Watkins, on Wednesday, June 22. Following the release of her newest album, Young in All the Wrong Ways, Watkins makes way for the Seacoast to kick off her summer tour. In addition to singing and playing fiddle, she also plays ukulele and guitar, and played percussion while touring with The Decemberists.

Reservations for summer shows can be made through the Festival’s website at: www.prescottpark.org. Prescott Park Arts Festival, a non-profit or-ganization, is the Seacoast’s premier outdoor performing arts venue, offering a uniquely accessible experience of high quality live theater and music – no fixed admissions fees – in an idyllic natural setting.

win-win experience for two of Dover’s staples.”

LaFountain said 7th Set-tlement even provided Wood-man volunteers with the op-portunity to contribute to the making the beer itself.

“We identified flavors, desired combinations of hops (for our 100th anniversary we of course had to include some Centennial Hops) citrus notes,

color, and alcohol by volume,” he said. “Josh and Nate even let us help prepare the mix, pro-ducing a great beer for which we will soon have a second edition. The first is sold out al-ready.”

7th Settlement has also re-cently partnered with the Amer-ican Independence Museum in Exeter to create a special beer for the first of three events for

the inaugural Beer for History. 7th Settlement will also par-ticipate in the other events with plans to craft different brews to suit each event’s theme and time of the year.

Expressing gratitude at their willingness to work with the local community, the Mu-seum’s Rob Levey said 7th Settlement represents the best example of local corporate phi-lanthropy.

“7th Settlement is proof that giving back to the com-munity produces two-fold ben-efits,” he said. “What amazes me is that they were on board from the very beginning.”

Michael Culver, president of The Trail and executive di-rector of the Wright Museum of WWII in Wolfeboro, said such support is critical to its collec-tive mission.

“Each organization on The Trail is first and foremost a ‘local’ Museum that seeks to educate, inspire and entertain their community,” he said. “As non-profit educational institu-tions, our achievements are impossible without support like that offered by 7th Settlement.”
