Fort Mountain Trailwinders
On Thursday, July 16th the Fort Mountain
Trailwinders installed their first donated bridge on the multi-use
recreational trail system in Epsom. Within minutes of the ribbon-cutting
ceremony, a biker rode through the new bridge.
The 16 foot bridge,
donated by Harber Construction, was placed over a wet spot on the multi-use
recreational trails behind the Epsom Bible Church on Black Hall Road in
Epsom. The bridge was built by members of the Fort Mountain Trailwinders,
Epsom’s snowmobile club.
The ceremony honoring Joe and Lori Harnois of
Harber Construction for their generous donation was attended by members of
the snowmobile club as well as representatives of the church. Epsom Bible
Church, who owns the land where the bridge was placed, has been a supportive
landowner for many years.
A plaque has been attached to the bridge as as
reminder to all hikers, bikers, horseback riders and snowmobilers that local
businesses such as Harber Construction support the community through their
sponsorship of recreational activities.

The Epsom Historical Association debuted its new cookbook “Kitchen
Memories” on Sunday July 12th, complete with samples of selected recipes, at
the Epsom Public Library. One hundred of the cookbooks were sold during the
day, and the remainder were sold within days of the event.
The 170 page
cookbook features submitted and other recipes along with related historical
photos from the Association’s digital archives, with some old remedies from
various sources.
Complete with a helpful index, the book is divided into
seven categories: Appetizers & Dips: Breakfast, Brunch and Breads; Cookies
and Bars; Desserts; Main Dishes and Casseroles; Salads, Sides, Soups and
Stews; and finally, This & That. The book also has an index, a list of
contributors and list of credits, common recipe substitutions and measuring
equivalents chart.
The committee, which completed the elegant in
appearance cookbook, included Carole Brown, Margaret Porter, Nancy Claris,
Mary Frambach, Betsy Bosiak, and graphic design, Bridget Remare.
The
outstanding response to this wonderful cookbook has forced a second printing
to be ready by Epsom Old Home Day. Copies can also be found in select area
shops. Cost of “Kitchen Memories” is $14.95 For more information contact the
Epsom Public Library at 736-9920 or the Epsom Historical Association at
