Expires 9/4/2014
by Mike Vinci
If one were to rise before the sun and
travel to 1 Cross Street on any given day,
Mike Peters could be found, his day already
in full swing. At about 5:30 a.m., Mike
begins his work on his familys farm stand,
Peters Farm, a locally beloved and famous
business in Salem.
After cleaning out the stand, which is
tall and red, complete with a rustic gravel
parking lot sectioned off by logs, Mike begins
loading his white truck with the produce that
will be available on the shelves that day.
He and his brother, John, drive to all of the
familys plots of farmland, located in Salem,
Methuen, Mass., Sandown and Chester, in order to collect the
vegetables, fruits and owers that are sold in the stand. Much of the
produce sold each day is picked that morning or during the day.
Peters Farm opens at 8 a.m. every day and will stay open until
7 p.m., weather permitting, from June to October. However,
the family business itself has been open and operating for over
100 years. Mike and Johns grandparents came to America from
Armenia and began working on a farm which had cows, chickens
and other products. The family began to grow vegetables in
the 1950s and opened a tent to sell their produce in the 1960s.
Eventually, they converted the barn that they owned into a stand
in which to sell their goods. That was the
genesis of the Peters Farm that the residents
of Salem know today.
Renovations made to the stand in recent years
have made the business a modernized version
of the traditional store-type that it is. There
arent too many places like this left around
here, said Mike Peters, who stopped to speak
for some time between runs in the familys white
pickup truck, which can always be seen driving
back and forth from plot of land to the store
throughout the day. Before departing again to
get more veggies, he was kind enough to offer a
ride home, an act which one might guess a guy
like Mike Peters would offer to anyone.
The store stands near Soule Elementary School, where Mike ran
a basketball camp for many years, getting to know many of the kids
and parents in the area. The Peters familys familiarity with many of
the shoppers who frequent their farm stand actualizes how deeply
ingrained their establishment is into the town of Salem. The century
of work that the family has put into their business has made Peters
farm into a well-known spot for Salem residents. Their history is as
rich and plentiful as the fruits and vegetables that they stock on their
shelves. This is one of the places in Salem that reminds residents of
the history which built much of what they see each and every day.

Driving through town will soon be a smoother task as crews work
to rebuild failing roads and maintain others.
Over the next ten years, all failing town roads will be
reconstructed, if selectmen maintain the 10-year road program
approved Monday night.
Town Engineer Robert Puff presented the updated plan to
selectmen, saying of the 182 miles of roadway in town that 27 miles
would be rebuilt and 44 miles maintained.
Puff said all roads identied in 2012 requiring reconstruction are
now in the plan. We have no out year capital work, he said.
A funding plan will need to be maintained for the plan to work,
and capital reconstruction completed.
Puff said the plan called for $4.615 million in 2012 with an
annual 3 percent increase. He said that funding level was necessary
to maintain road conditions throughout town.
If the funding prole isnt maintained, this plan wont be
reached, he said.
The best way to take care of our streets is to spend money on
maintenance, Puff said, adding reconstructing the road is extremely
costly.
The plan calls for more than 75 percent of funds to be used to
reconstruct roads leaving the remaining monies to be used for mill-
and-overlay maintenance work.
The Road Stabilization Committee uses a Pavement Condition
Index to assess road conditions. Roads rating below 61 require
reconstruction.
The plan calls for parts of Main Street and North Policy Street
to be reconstructed in 2015. The following year, the rst half of
Haverhill Road, along with Town Farm Road and South Shore Road,
will be reconstructed.
In 2017, the remainder of Haverhill Road would be completed as
well as other roads including Stanley Brook Drive and Northwestern
Boulevard. Puff said Zion Hill Road reconstruction had been
pushed until 2018.
But the plan could change over the next few years, as increased
requests for roadwork by residents will become formalized.
Puff said currently residents informally ask for their roads to be
moved up in the plan, and the committee reviews the request, but
said he would like a formal process.
A form will now be available to residents for requests to have
their streets xed sooner. The committee will then formally review
each request and decide if alterations should be made to the plan.
Industrial roads have also been added to the plan, including
Northwestern Blvd., and are now being looked at in a group. Puff
said the roads are of increased cost, being wider than standard
roads.
Selectman Everett McBride said it was important to maintain these
roads increased width so that large vehicles could easily use them.
I would urge that we keep them the same, McBride said.
Puff said a majority of work over the next three years will be on
heavily traveled roads, but in 2018 emphasis will be placed on
reconstructing neighborhood streets.
At that point, the program takes a signicant turn and were in
the neighborhoods almost exclusively, he said. If you are on a
road that needs to be reconstructed, we will be getting to you in this
10-year plan.
Puff said aggressive maintenance of Route 28 will deter major
reconstruction costs, allowing the plan to continue.
The board unanimously approved the plan, which will require
voter approval in March.

Efforts to extend the bike path program into Salem got a
giant boost recently when the New Hampshire Community
Development Finance Authority announced its annual
tax credits grants list. The Friends of the Salem Bike-Ped
Corridor were in Concord to hear that their application for
$125,000 of tax credit funds was approved by the CDFA.
Reacting to the notication, FSBPC Co-chair David
Topham said, This announcement is the most exciting
news weve had since the TE grant for this project was
approved in 2010. This means that when these credits are
sold to the business community, we will fulll our local
match obligation in order to get phase one of the corridor
off the drawing table and into the eld. The net proceeds,
coupled with private donations already received, will meet
the $229,410 requirement of the federal grant.
We appreciate the letters of support, the enthusiasm
shown for the tax credit effort and the help from the Town
leaders as we pursued the grant. But our job has really just
begun. Funding this rst phase will allow us to connect to
the soon-to-be-completed nal leg of the Windham Rail
Trail and will extend the bike-ped corridor into Salem down
to Rockingham Road, across from Pentucket Bank. But,
for this to really be a success, we plan to continue building
southward, eventually connecting to the existing trail in
Methuen.
According to Steering Committee Chairman Larry Belair,
Many people have worked hard to get this project to
this point, but none more than David and his Co-chair
Linda Harvey. Since 2007, they have put their time,
talent and treasure into making this happen. Sometime
next year, families from Greater Salem will begin to use
this transportation and recreational amenity. And, thanks
to the generosity of Salems business community and
many private citizens, they will be able to travel safely up
through Windham and Derry. We are making plans to
raise additional local funds so that the work already started
on a section just west of North Broadway, phase two can
be completed down to the portion installed by Joe Faro of
Tuscan Kitchen. From Main Street in Salem to downtown
Derry, thats our near-term goal.
The design of the North Broadway phase is well
underway. Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. was selected
earlier this year as the project design engineering
contractor. When the design is approved, bids will be
sought, a contractor will be chosen and, if all goes well,
physical construction work will begin in the spring of 2015.
Anyone interested in more information, donating funds,
participating in the tax credits program or providing help
can contact FSBPC leaders David Topham at 898-9926,
Linda Harvey at 898-5285 or Larry Belair at 898-4909.

The Salem School Districts Summer Theater Program made their
way down the yellow brick road during The Wizard of Oz at
Salem Highs Seifert Auditorium on July 18. As the culmination of
the three-week programming workshop the cast of more than 50
students ranging from grades 2-9 performed the spectacle to many
audience members who were eager to watch the musical.
Participants of the program had not only learned the basics of
musical theater three hours a day for three weeks prior to the event
but also camaraderie with their fellow performers.
Since the Summer Theater Programs humble beginning 15
years ago it has provided fun constructive enrichment offerings
and inspiration to hundreds of Salems interested youth. Valerie
Carino, for instance, who played Dorothy, has been participating
and beneting from the theater program since 2009. Each year
she keeps coming back to perfect the skills she has already learned
and also to learn more from instructor Paula MacKinnon who has
devoted years of her time to Salems theater programs such as the
Break-a-Leg Players of the Woodbury School.

Salem Junior Legion Finishes 1-2 in Tournament
by Jacob Gagnon
On Friday, July 25, the Salem Junior Legion team shut out
Bedfords Junior Legion squad in the winners bracket game of the
postseason tournament.
Salem eliminated Bedford with a 6-0 win to advance in the
tournament, powered by a terric pitching performance from
Kristian Harris. Harris hurled a full seven innings and allowed only
one hit and three walks while striking out seven Bedford batters to
earn the victory on the mound.
First baseman Brad Baldinelli led at the plate, going one-for-
two with a pair of runs batted in (RBIs) and one run scored while
drawing a pair of walks. Connor Abraham, the designated hitter
for Fridays game, also collected two RBIs, going one-for-four at the
plate for Salem.
On Saturday, July 26, Salem played Rochester Junior Legion
team at Gill Stadium in Manchester with the hopes of advancing
even further. After 12 innings of play, Salem lost, 16-10, despite
collecting 13 hits. Salem committed six errors in the contest and
allowed 20 Rochester hits.
Salem used ve different pitchers throughout the marathon of a
game. The starter, David Robertson, allowed six runs on ten hits
while walking two and striking out three batters over eight innings
of work. In his two innings of relief, Riley Kuegel excelled, striking
out three batters and allowing no runs and only a single hit. Bryce
Haynes then allowed two runs on three hits in one inning of relief.
Jake Sheply, who would take the loss for Salem, allowed eight runs
(four earned runs) on four hits in two-thirds of an inning. Christian
Golden nished off the inning and did not surrender another run for
Salem.
Baldinelli had another strong game at the plate, collecting
two RBIs with two runs scored in a one-for-four hit performance.
Baldinelli, again, drew two walks. Right elder Andrew Calandra
struck two RBIs by going three-for-six on the day. Abraham batted
in two runs while going one-for-one in the game. Connor Suech,
the catcher, recorded an RBI with a three-for-six performance at the
plate.
Salem returned to Gill Stadium the following day, Sunday, July 27,
to play Lebanon Junior Legion team. Salems bats cooled in their
third and nal game of the tournament as Lebanon earned the win,
9-3.
Abraham started the game, hurling four and one-thirds of an
inning and allowing seven runs (four earned runs) on six hits while
walking two and striking out four Lebanon hitters. Abraham would
take the loss on the mound for Salem. In relief, Johnny Sapia tossed
an inning and two-thirds, allowing one run on three hits and two
walks. Golden nished up in the nal inning giving up one run on
one hit while walking two batters. Lebanon knocked in ten hits total
in the game.
Sheply led Salem at the plate, going one-for-one with a pair of
RBIs and a run scored. Suech was responsible for Salems other RBI.
Salem could muster only three hits in the contest.
Despite the disappointing nish in the tournament, the junior
teams young talent proved that they will be able to lead the Salem
Legion teams of the future.
New Athletic Director Eyes Positive Progress for Salem Athletics
by Jacob Gagnon
David Rozumek, who has been a familiar
face at nearly every Salem High School athletic
competition over the last six years, has retired
from his role as athletic director for the Blue
Devils. Taking his place as of this summer is Scott
Insinga, who was named Salems new AD in May.
Rozumeks excellence on the job will leave a void
that Salem believes Insinga can fulll.
Insinga, who served at Nashua South High
School as an athletic coordinator prior to joining
Salem, has vast experience with both student-
athletes and high school athletics that should
serve him well with the Blue Devils. Insinga has
taught and coached for nearly 30 years, all while
maintaining the same philosophy regarding high
school athletics. We want to make high school
athletics as positive an experience as possible,
said Insinga. The student-athletes will learn
much more about themselves and their teammates
by going through a season which will create
lifelong knowledge on how to handle adversity,
success and teamwork.
Salem Highs new AD shares many of the same
qualities that allowed Rozumek to excel in the
position: integrity, ethics, working knowledge
of high school athletics through experience as a
coach, and dedication to his role.
I have competed against Salem on the eld
many times as a coach and I understand how
much athletics means to the families here in
Salem. We will work very hard to keep that as a
staple of our philosophy, said Insinga. I am very
much family orientated as I value and cherish my
own family time.
For Insinga, the job is about fostering the growth
of student-athletes not only in their respective
sports, but also in the classroom. Athletics are
merely the vehicle for which kids can learn many
qualities and skills that will help them in life,
including overcoming adversity, the importance of
hard work, and collaborating with teammates to
achieve a common goal. Those qualities are just
as valuable off the eld, court, or mat as they are
on them.
Insingas goals are based on the success of
the student-athletes and the Salem High School
athletic teams. That success, however, is not
based solely on the win and loss record at the
end of each season, but how much each student-
athlete and team has improved, how much they
have learned, and how hard they worked. Insinga
is focused on positive progress for his teams over
championships.
I have high hopes for all our sports, and,
hopefully, we can get all our student-athletes
through their seasons healthy and be as
competitive as possible. Its not about wins and
losses but the positive progress all programs will
make over the season, said Insinga. I will assist
athletes and coaches in any way to achieve their
goals toward making that positive progress.
Insinga has the mentality, experience, and
qualities of a caring and successful leader for Blue
Devil athletics. There is little doubt that he will
continue to make his own positive progress in
Salem.
