Dog Owners Asked to Follow New Rules at Town Fields

Let’s Give Child Protective Workers The Tools They Need

reP. maureen terry

As your representative, I can’t think of a responsibility that weighs heavier than the wellbeing and safety of the kids in our community and through-out the state. It’s our shared respon-sibility, not just among public officials and parents, but all of us. Maine people care deeply about our children and, because of that, we need to take a hard look at how we handle child welfare and how we can make the sys-tem better.

The last time Maine overhauled our child welfare system was after the 2001 death of five-year-old Logan Marr while she was in foster care. It was something that never should have hap-pened. The state took Logan out of her mother’s home only to place her in a fatally dangerous situation. After the tragedy of Logan’s death, reforms were put into place, including more super-visory and casework staff, quality tar-gets for safely reducing the number of children in care, increased family and community involvement and a commit-ment to placing children with relatives. After these reforms were implemented, Maine’s Office of Child and Family Services was praised as among the best in the country.

Tragically, as we all found out last year, that’s not where the story ends. Sixteen years after Logan’s death, two Maine girls, Marissa Kennedy and Kendall Chick, died at the hands of their caregivers, even after involvement from OCFS at multiple points. We all want to know what went so wrong that cost Marissa and Kendall their lives.

The Department of Health and Human Services is conducting an internal investigation, and the Legislature has asked the Office of Program Evaluation and Government Accountability to investigate as well.

What seems clear is that a system that was working well a decade ago has buckled under short-staffing and increased caseloads for child protective workers. In the first year of Governor LePage’s first term, the number of child protective workers in Maine dropped while the ones who remained saw their caseloads double.

These workers must have the sup-port and compensation they need to do what is a challenging job under the best of circumstances. DHHS’s proposal to hire 75 more casework-ers is a good start, but it can’t wait for new training to be implemented. We need them yesterday, and we need to raise wages for all child protective caseworkers.

I’ve had the opportunity to speak with two state workers on the front lines of our child welfare system. They both confirmed that there is a signifi-cant lack of temporary homes to place children when they are removed. One worker sat for hours with a child in a car while they waited for a temporary placement.

The governor recently suggested that the state should abandon the prac-tice of working with families to keep kids at home whenever possible. Of course, staying in an unsafe situation is never in the best interest of a child, but when caseworkers have manageable caseloads, they are able to get families

the help they need to stay together. Keeping children at home whenever possible and placing them with rela-tives when it’s not was a key reform that came from Logan’s death. Instead of simply repealing this evidence-based reform, we should give department staff the resources they need to make this policy work as it was intended.

We also need to look at factors that may be contributing to the increase of cases of child abuse and neglect around the state. The rise in the num-ber of parents struggling with opiate use is a problem we have to address. They need access to proven treatment. Expanding MaineCare as approved by Maine voters will help.

Under the governor’s watch, the number of Maine kids living in deep poverty has grown at eight times the national rate. Cutting support for these kids has done nothing to keep them safe. As part of last year’s biennial bud-get, I supported a package that will help families living in poverty build a better life for their kids.

If you believe a child is in danger, please call 1-800-452-1999 to report it. Let’s work together to keep Maine kids safe from harm.

Dear Editor,Where is the “Community” I knew

when I was growing up? The days when we had a volunteer fire depart-ment on our street and the auxiliary to go with it that got together to learn to use a hose from the truck, or pump water from a spray tank for a grass fire, without having to have three towns involved to extinguish a fire in a back-yard fire pit?

The family community “Potluck” din-ners that were real; we ate what people brought even if it was all pies, where it included the family rather than hav-ing the kids off to some town orga-nized sports program in order to keep them from being bored. This ends up separating families even more, because there are so many places to go at once they can’t possibly attend all fairly or evenly.

Who are my new neighbors? I don’t know, either I or they have been too busy to stop and find out. Or perhaps

they have moved away, after all, they were here for a year, and I hardly saw them at home at all other than when the kids were waiting for the bus, and even that didn’t last very long since they had to get a car to participate in programs to keep them occupied and not bored at home roaming the fields and forests.

I don’t recall too many AK47s around the neighborhood, perhaps an occasional 22 pistol for shooting rats at the local dump, but even then, not too many were used on schools. Maybe I’m just too old to appreciate the idea that the town knows better how to raise our children than a good old fashioned family where at least one of the parents was home at least part of the time and not out working so the “family” could have more boats, snow-mobiles, and four-wheelers to “enjoy” this short life span we humans have.

Letter to the Editor Continued from Page 2

Dear Editor,Around the world, 746 million

people live in extreme poverty, on less than $1.90 a day, and nearly 1 billion people suffer from hunger. 17,000 children under the age of five die from preventable diseases every single day.

Increasing foreign aid can drasti-cally reduce global poverty and save millions of lives. It is a humanitarian imperative. It is also in the United States’ strategic and economic inter-ests.

Former presidents, Secretaries of Defense, and Joint Chiefs of Staff have all asserted how vital foreign aid is to national security. Foreign aid can prevent conflict, weaken the appeal of terrorist groups, and foster inter-national peace and security. Helping people and countries out of poverty also strengthens the U.S. economy. By promoting the development of foreign economies, foreign aid creates new markets and consumers and increases the demand for American goods, creat-ing needed jobs here at home.

Many Americans believe that the United States spends 20% of its budget on foreign aid, and believe this should be reduced to 10%. In reality, less than 1% of the U.S. budget is spent on for-eign aid.

Increasing foreign aid would drasti-cally reduce global poverty and greatly benefit the United States and the world as a whole. However, the Trump administration has proposed drastic cuts to the foreign aid budget.

Organizations like the Borgen Project, a nonprofit organization work-ing nationwide to combat global pov-erty, are fighting to prevent this from happening. But they need your help.

I urge you to contact our lead-ers, Senators Collins and King and Representative Pingree, to support the International Affairs Budget and increase funding to the poor. Every call, email, and letter our members of Congress receive can make a differ-ence. Each of us has the ability to make the world a better place.

Gorham now has another choice when searching for the perfect gift. Upcycle Maine Home Furnishings opened in May at 102 Main St, in the space between Burger King and Goodwill. Visitors to the store will find anything from paintings, jewelry, soaps, and specialty wine glasses to more unique craft pieces that have been reclaimed, repurposed and rede-signed.

Owner Stephanie Sands has been refinish-ing furniture and crafting repur-posed items into home decor for about four years. She was originally selling in a couple of local shops and attending craft fairs, but in the summer of 2017, she decided that she’d like to open a space of her own.

With limited business experience, Sands first viewed the retail space in November of 2017. She loved it but thinking of the phrase her mom had ingrained in her, “If it was meant to be it will all work out,” she decided to hold off for the winter and take time to research and make connections with people who could help her start a small business.

At that time, she was attending Southern Maine Community College finishing up her degree in Criminal Justice. She found that SMCC offered many helpful resources in learning the first steps of opening a busi-ness. In addition she reached out to SCORE Portland, a nationwide nonprofit organization dedicated to the formation, growth and success of small businesses. There, she found mentors who were able to answer questions and guide her in the direc-tion of starting a successful business.

Sands chose Gorham because of the reasonableness of the overhead and the growth that the town is cur-rently experiencing. “When I met

the owners of the building I’m locat-ed in, I knew that this was the right spot for me. They were friendly and willing to give my starter business a chance and support me to grow it. For that I’m very grateful.”

Currently, Sands provides a space for about 30 artists and crafters to showcase their work. As a result, there are many different unique home decor and gift items. She also offers custom sign making, custom orders and a furniture refinishing service. Her vendors are located

from New Gloucester to Kennebunk and she takes pride in keeping the shop filled with locally crafted items that support Maine’s small business growth.

Sands believes the items curat-ed for sale in

the shop set Upcycle Maine Home Furnishings apart from other shops. In addition, she said the relation-ships she has developed with other local small businesses such as The Vintage Heart in Gorham and Pumpkin Seed Designs in Westbrook, has further supported the growth of small businesses in the area. These relationships are shown both through referring customers to one another’s shops and also through cross promoting one anoth-er via social media platforms.

“My hopes are to get the word out about the shop to the residents of Gorham and surrounding areas and be able to continue to support the 30 vendors that are selling their work for years to come!”

Upcycle Maine Home Furnishings is open Sunday 10-4, Monday 10-4, Thursday 10-6, Friday 10-6 and Saturday 10-6. It is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday. To learn more, visit Sands on Facebook & Instagram @UpcycleMaineHomeFurnishings, email [email protected] or call (207) 233-4968.

Saving for Education? Consider a 529 Plan

FINANCIAL FOCUS

eD Doyle

Do you know about 529 savings plans? If not, you are not alone. While these plans have been around since 1996, many people are still unaware of them. And that is unfor-tunate, because a 529 plan can be a valuable tool for anyone who wants to help a child, grandchild, friend or other family member save for educa-tion expenses.

Here are some of the key bene-fits of a 529 plan:

Potential tax advantages – A 529 plan’s earn-ings are not subject to federal income taxes, as long as with-drawals are used for qualified elementary, secondary and higher education expenses of the designated beneficiary, such as your child or grandchild. You will be subject to ordinary income taxes, plus a 10 percent federal penalty, on the earnings portion of withdraw-als not used for qualified education expenses.

High contribution limits – Contribution limits are gener-ally quite high for most states’ 529 plans. However, you could possibly incur gift tax consequences if your contributions, plus any other gifts, to a particular beneficiary exceed $15,000 during a single year.

Ability to switch beneficiaries – As the old song goes, “The future is not ours to see.” You might name a particular child or grandchild as a beneficiary of a 529 savings plan, only to see him or her decide not to go to college after all. But as the owner of the plan, you generally may be able to switch beneficiaries whenever you like, right up to the point when they start taking with-drawals. To make this switch non-taxable and penalty-free, you must designate a new beneficiary who is a member of the same family as the original beneficiary.

Freedom to invest in any state’s plan – You can invest in the 529 plan offered by any state, regard-less of where you live. But if you invest in your own state’s plan, you

might receive some type of state tax benefit, such as a deduction or credit. Additional benefits also may be available.

Flexibility in changing investments – You can switch investment options in your 529 plan up to twice a year. Or, if you would rather take a more hands-off approach, you could select an automatic age-based or target date option that starts out with a heavier emphasis on growth-orient-

ed investments and shifts toward less risky, fixed-income vehicles as the benefi-ciary approaches school or college age.

While a 529 plan clearly offers some benefits, it

also raises some issues about which you should be aware. For example, when colleges compute financial aid packages, they may count assets in a 529 plan as parental assets, assum-ing the parents are the plan owners. To clarify the impact of 529 plans on potential financial aid awards, you might want to consult with a col-lege’s financial aid officer.

One final note: In previous years, 529 plans were limited to eligible colleges, universities and trade schools, but starting in 2018, you can also use up to $10,000 per year, per beneficiary, from a 529 plan to pay for tuition expenses at public, private or religious elementary and secondary schools. Not all states recognize elementary and second-ary school expenses as qualifying for 529 plan benefits, so consult your local tax advisor before investing.

Education is a great investment in a child’s future. To make that edu-cation more affordable, you might want to make your own investment in a 529 plan.

Late summer into fall is a great time to view other gardens. There are many garden tours to whet your appetite. Most have a donation fee that supports a worthy cause. On an overcast Saturday in July, five friends and I shared a beautiful, inspiring day on a planned garden tour. The one public garden on the tour that would be a treat for anyone to enjoy is the Children’s Garden at Fort Williams where walking paths wend their way through a great display of well-estab-lished blooming perennials.

Touring home gardens gives avid gardeners a chance to see an endless number of creative ways to incorpo-rate vegetables, shrubs, perennials, annuals and hardscape. Homeowners found ways to include reflective areas, water features and hillside plant-ings. Conservation was a reoccurring theme. Lots of interesting foliage plants complemented the blooms of annuals and perennials. Shady areas planted with unique trees added a coolness to sitting areas. Most gardens held treasures of the past. Collections of special interest were tucked in nooks and spots of interest. Natural areas for birds and insects were left untouched. Whether the yard was newly developed or a family’s second or third generation garden it was tended with love and affection.

Container plantings of annuals added spots of color that could be seen from areas inside the homes as well as drawing the eye to spe-cial outside areas. Hummingbirds hovered over the tubular flowers of hosta and lobelia blossoms. Even lawns that were manicured and irri-

gated were mowed at a higher than normal height for their general sum-mer health. Healthy lawns encour-age ground-feeding birds and give a viewer a place for the eye to rest. Specimen trees, dwarf conifers and dwarf flowering shrubs added visual balance to the landscape.

As gardeners what we think and what we know is often challenged when visiting other gardens where “rules” are often bent with success. We found hostas happily growing in the sun with roses and a healthy tri-colored beech tree growing in deep shade.

It will certainly be on the calendar to visit more gardens each summer. The visitors to my garden the last two weeks in July have enjoyed one of the most colorful times for sum-mer bloom. Keep an open mind and a curiosity for new ideas or planting combinations when visiting other gar-dens. Pause to reflect on the garden-er’s vision and their unique design.

In appreciation of our waning sum-mer days, enjoy the smell of rain, the bees busy in the garden, and all the beauty that nature has given us. My grandchildren are calling from my garden. They have just “picked their weight” in wild black raspberries growing in the wildwood. With faces smeared with purple and buckets full, they assure me there are still more left for jelly making.

A Memorable Week at Camp 911

Photos courtesy of Gorham Police Dept.

Participants of Camp 911 learned about the equipment used during rescues, basic first aid, and how to splint. The kids also had a visit from the MRAP vehicle (Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected) and were able to check out the inside with Gorham’s very own Sgt Young.

“What I liked best about Camp 911,” Olivia Nault told her father, “was getting on the Portland Fire Boat and going to the Animal Rescue League,” but she had a hard time choosing because all five days were chocked full of adventure and new experiences.

A joint project of the Gorham Police Department and the Gorham Fire Department, the first 2018 session of Camp 911 gave kids in grades 3-5 an

opportunity to learn what police offi-cers, firefighters, Maine wardens, and even Gorham Police Department’s K-9 dog, Sitka, do to keep them safe. They learned basic fire aid and how to keep themselves safe on bikes, in the water, or in case of fire. They went swimming and ate pizza.

Thanks to the enthusiastic hard work of School Resource Officer Mike Coffin and Firefighter Dale Leighton, the 28 children enrolled in Camp 911 had a memorable week learning valu-able skills while having fun.

This was the second year for Camp 911. This summer, there will be an additional session for middle school age campers from August 13 to 17. Registration is through Gorham Recreation Department, although the program is nearly full. The older children will participate in many of the same activities, but will have more hand-on experienc-es. They will help cut up a car with Jaws of Life and learn some tech-niques of evidence collection.

Drue Nickerson (right), the owner of 320ink, is shown with Peter Wentworth, the former owner of NESA. Nickerson intends to move all NESA production into his current production facil-ity in the Gorham Industrial Park, where the company moved five years ago, and will continue operations under the 320ink name.

Gorham Middle School Student Council representatives wrapped up the year by making blan-kets for the Linus group to give to children in local hospitals. In addition, the representatives also walked over to Village School to read to the K-2 students for Read Across America Day. They left behind a collection of books for classrooms to enjoy and ended the day by walking to Cumberland Farms to enjoy a slushy treat.

At Village Elementary School, staff believes in creating a warm engaging learning environment. Teachers are always looking for ways to include the Gorham com-munity by offering opportunities to enrich students’ lives.

As the Gorham community con-tinues to grow, staff needs to be cre-ative in accessing space. Sometimes looking right outside the window is all you need. And that’s just what Village did. They began with a vision of a cozy outdoor reading space for all Village students to embrace and love reading.

The project started with the creation of a page on www.donorschoose.org. In less than a week, it was fully funded. When the word got out about the project the collaboration began with the slogan, “From little things, big things grow.”

Some of the community sup-porters included: thirteen donors from Donor’s Choose; Dan Dupuis; Erin Webber; Gorham Educational Foundation; Gorham Sand and Gravel; Hammond Lumber; Heather Whitaker (GMS); Linda Faatz and Gorham Gardening Club; and Megan Dermody.

Village staff felt so fortunate to have so many dedicated families and little helpers work on this proj-ect. Village students will look for-ward to using this outdoor reading area for years to come.

Recycling through Color

Photo credit Martha Farnham

The Village Elementary School PIE group collected 394 markers to send to Cray-ola for recycling through their ColorCycle program. The program was initiated to help kids understand the importance of their role in protecting the environment. Through this initiative, students in K-12 schools across the continental United States and parts of Canada can collect and repurpose used Crayola markers. ColorCycle is also a great opportunity for teachers and their students to explore eco-friendly practices through stan-dards-based lesson plans that are avail-able to teachers to enrich instruction and promote lively class discussions. Pictured is first-grader Tessa Farnham with the markers before they were sent off to Crayola.

Maine School Immunization Requirements Reminder

Gorham times staff

A reminder that starting in the 2018-2019 school year, all students entering, advancing, or transferring into seventh grade and twelfth grade in Maine public and private schools must have proof that they have the age appropriate meningococcal vaccines (MCV4) sero-groups A, C, W, and Y.

One dose of MCV4 is required for all students entering seventh grade. Two doses of MCV4 are required for students entering twelfth grade, with a minimum of eight weeks between dose one and dose two.

If the first dose of MCV4 was admin-istered on or after the sixteenth birth-day, a second dose is not required. If

a student entering twelfth grade is 15 years of age or younger, only one dose is required.

Parents are encouraged to make an appointment for their incoming sev-enth and twelfth grade children to get a meningococcal vaccination as soon as possible. Children will need proof of this vaccination in order to attend a Maine public or private school this fall.

Parents may opt-out for medical, reli-gious or philosophical reasons by filling out an exemption form. Contact the Gorham School Department for more information.

For further questions, contact the Maine Immunization Program at (207) 287-3746, (800) 867-4775 or by email at [email protected].

A group of generous and philanthropic young people organized and performed a benefit concert at the Gorham School of Music on July 13. The “Not a Rock Concert” rock concert featured four young bands from area towns: Toxic Playground, The Chives, The Cough-lin Brothers and FBb (Fletcher Brothers Band). The collective group selected the Gorham Schools’ Backpack Program as the recipient of the $300 raised from the event.

Remember When: Gorham Playhouse Theaterwilma GoulD Johnson

Contributing Writer

The roar of the MGM lion brings back memories of watching movies at the Gorham Playhouse Theater. The Gorham Playhouse opened in 1940 and was located on State Street, just beyond what was once Barden’s Drug Store and Dot’s Restaurant, and is now Gorham House of Pizza. First known as the Gorham Theatre, it was renamed Gorham Playhouse in 1943, the same year the town voted to allow Sunday movies.

The building was small in size, seating approximately 400, with a larger middle section and two smaller side rows. As you entered the lobby, the ticket booth was on the left and concession area on the right. Popcorn, ice cream cones and candy were sold for a nickel in the 50’s.

Saturday afternoons featured very well-attended shows for chil-dren. The cost of admission, which was 50 cents in the 50’s and 60’s, would now be considered pocket change. If you had a quarter, you could attend the movie and have enough candy to go home with a stomachache. Some of the young boys in town worked in the projec-tion booth and others were hired to clean up the popcorn and candy wrapper mess.

During the evening movies, at

9:50 p.m., an announcement was made to remind the college girls that it was time to leave so that they could return to their residence hall before closing time. As the mid 1970’s approached, the theater was closed and a request to reopen it a year later was denied. The the-ater was also used for Mass for the Catholic Church on Sunday morn-ings until the present church was built. In the late 1970’s, the build-ing was renovated into office space.

Prior to the opening of the Gorham Playhouse, silent mov-ies were shown in Allen Hall, in the upstairs of Burnell’s stationery store on the corner of School and Main Street (recently vacated by The Gorham Growl). Marian Sylvain lived in Gorham and was a very well known pianist who knew how to adapt the music for silent films. Talkies followed the silent movies and began somewhere around the late 1920’s or the early 1930’s.

Today, most people enjoy watch-ing Netflix in the comfort of their own home but may still have good memories of attending their local movie theaters and watching such movies as “Gone With the Wind,” “A Streetcar Named Desire,” “The African Queen” or “An American in Paris.”
