New Thompson Center at PMA

Cant be Seen from Lowell Road, but Wait til Fall

While the 1927 building still is majestic and powerful, the new center is four stories tall, but, as it starts at field level, it reaches the 2nd floor of the school with a new elevator going to the top floor of the school.

cant see that the progress on the Thompson Center for
Athletics and Performing Arts at Presentation of Mary
Academy is 60 percent completed. While the pictures
show what you cant see from Lowell Road, a meeting
with Tim Burke, construction superintendent from
Bonnette, Page & Stone of Laconia, confirmed precisely
what progress has been made.
While it is still just the steel superstructure, the rubber
roof was being installed Tuesday morning; it is beige in
color to reflect the sun for better heating and cooling
of the build. Burke mentioned that all the concrete for
the floors will be poured in the next couple of weeks,
and the blocking will most likely be completed before
school starts. While the glass front of the building will
be the last to be installed, the building will be closed in
before winter arrives in Hudson.
Burke mentioned that, once the exterior was done,
the interior walls and mechanical system would go in
very fast. BPS uses local contractors when possible

Dave Herbert is the building inspector for the town
of Hudson, who was at PMA Tuesday to check some
plumbing connection that will be under the gym floor
when the building is complete.
While the gym itself is over four stories tall, its roof
line is at the second-floor level. This allows access to
new bathrooms and concession stands from the athletic
field on up a very small grade. There are walkways
from every floor to the new elevator, which is large
enough from all public safety needs that might arise in
either building.
A new driveway and pathways are taking shape, and
extra care has been taken to match the bricks on the
upper sections of the school and the granite blocks that
formed the foundation.
PMA Principal Sister Maria Rosa commented, I am
extremely pleased with the progress of the project and

complex in November in time for the basketball season

A tree branch fell from behind the backstop at Corning Field last winter. I cut the branch down and kept it for
firewood to use in my wood stove. Imagine my surprise, while splitting wood the other day, when I found a baseball
lodged in the branch. How long has it been there? Did it get placed there or was it a foul ball? It has a story to tell;
its too bad that trees cant talk.

Hudson, Litchfield High School Graduates Awarded

Cumberland Farms Believe & Achieve Scholarship
Cumberland Farms announced on Wednesday
that 130 talented high school seniors have been
awarded Believe & Achieve scholarships to
help them attend college in the fall of 2017.
Among the winners are Alvirne High School
graduate Benjamin Desrochers of Hudson,
and Campbell High School graduate David
Simoneau of Litchfield. Both Desrochers and
Simoneau will attend the University of New
Hampshire.
Since the launch of Cumberland Farms
popular scholarship program over a decade ago,
the company has provided more than $1 million
of critical financial assistance to over 1,100
college-bound young adults to help them realize
their dreams of achieving a college education.
As part of the companys commitment to
nurturing the future of young people, the
Believe & Achieve program provides $1,000
scholarships annually to 130 eligible graduating
high school seniors across its service area.
This year Cumberland Farms has awarded
$130,000 in Believe & Achieve Scholarships
to 48 students in Massachusetts, 24 in Florida,
11 in New York, 13 in New Hampshire, 12
in Connecticut, five in Maine, eight in New
Jersey/Pennsylvania, six
area have attended a wide range of colleges
and universities, including Harvard University,
Yale, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Purdue, University
of Massachusetts, Clemson, Florida State,
University of Michigan, Princeton, University
of Florida, Rochester Institute of Technology,
New York University, University of Miami, and
more. To learn more about Cumberland Farms

Giving back to the communities we serve
is a critical part of our company mission; we
had this in mind when we started the Believe

school. I am so tired of people disregarding
the rules of the road. They are there for a
reason. One of these days a car is going to
crash into a person riding a bike, and its
going to be the bikers fault.
I dont know if the Hudson Police need
to do more bike safety classes for everyone,
not just children, but something needs to be
done. I know that the schools are all about
the drug prevention, but I think they need
to focus more on bike safety because the
amount of kids I see in Hudson and Nashua
just not following the rules of the road is
way too many.

Newly Created Position of Land Use Director Expands

on Town Planners Duties
On Aug. 30, George Thebarge will mark his first day on the job
as the land use director for the Town of Hudson, a newly created
position. Thebarge replaces Town Planner John Cashell, who
worked for the town for 14 years, leaving in February to take over
the planning directors position in Georgetown, Mass. Thebarge,
with a starting salary of $98,500, will gain added responsibilities
beyond the previous town planners position. Thebarge was one
of three candidates being considered by the selectmen for the land
use director position. Thebarge was unanimously accepted by the
Hudson Board of Selectmen on July 25 as the towns first land use
director.
As land use director, Thebarge will supervise and coordinate the
daily operations of the Land Use Division through coordination of
the planning, engineering, zoning, code enforcement and economic
development activities of the town. He will also serve as the town
planner. Under the direction of Town Administrator Steve Malizia,
Thebarge will provide supervision to employees in the planning,
engineering and zoning/code enforcement departments.
In his capacity as town planner, Thebarge will advise the planning
board, citizens, board of selectmen, town administrator and town
staff regarding land use planning issues. Additionally, he will serve
as the lead person for the towns economic development efforts;
supervise the processing of all applications for planning board
review; supervise the management of the towns master plan and
capital improvements programs; prepare the budgets; coordinate the
technical activities of the departments; and answer public inquiries
and complaints as needed.

But the Triumph Renown wasnt the only

1964 Winchester London Taxi, last years
best in show, drew a crowd of admirers.
Winchester London Taxis were made from
1963 through 1972. There used to be very
strict taxi rules in London. One expectation
was that the roof had to be high enough,
so a man wearing a top hat could sit
comfortably without removing his hat. Each
taxi had to reach a 25-foot turning radius,
and have a limousine configuration. This The cab of a 1941 Coca Cola Ford delivery truck tilted to give mechanics access to the engine

owner had a photo album done of the before-
and-after restoration as well as a photo of the
truck delivering Coca Cola to stores back in
1941. Although the freight cabin was gone, the
rest of the truck had been carefully restored. Lots
of conversation rolled around finding the rusted
hulk of this truck abandoned in a field, getting
permission to move and then the months to
restore.

As well as antique British cars, there were newer British cars. The
row of Lotus vehicles parked together drew much interest. Next to
a 2011 Lotus Evora sat the owner enjoying an ice cream cone. You
must have great knees, said a viewer who noticed that the Evora
had little ground clearance. Will a tennis ball even roll under that
