HRCU Donates $15,000 to YMCA of Strafford County
Holy Rosary Credit Union (HRCU) recently donated $15,000 to the YMCA of Strafford County, providing funding for the newly opened facility’s capital campaign.
“We are so proud and honored to support the YMCA’s dream of building a location in Rochester,” said Brian Hughes, President and CEO of HRCU. “The YMCA is such a valuable asset in the community and to be part of its funding from the start is truly a privilege.”
The $2 million, 27,500-square-foot facility at 35 Industrial Way in Rochester opened its doors in January and since then has been offering comprehensive programs for the entire family to promote a healthy and active lifestyle.
The state-of-the-art facility includes a preschool child care center, youth and teen center, and a large multipurpose room for children's programs, called Kidz Gym. It also has a teaching kitchen to promote healthy nutrition. Additionally, it offers more than 13,000-square-feet of health and fitness venues, including yoga, cycling and group exercise studios, as well as free weights, cardio machines, strength building equipment, locker rooms, and lounge areas.

5 Green Tips from Green Lotus Yoga Studio and Green Alliance
This week’s tips come from Lona Kovacs of Green Lotus Yoga Studio in Dover:
1. There are a ton of things you can do with your old yoga mat! Cut it up and use pieces to line drawers and cupboards, to protect your knees in the garden, as pads for table or chair legs, or to make little mouse pads or jar openers!
2. Or, why not donate your mat! Nursing homes can use them to help make it easier for residents to get in and out of bed, and animal shelters are always looking for soft, durable surfaces to line their crates and make the critters more comfortable!
3. Why not repair your old clothes? At home, I've enjoyed taking my old garments and getting them repaired at a tailor, instead of getting rid of them.
4. Don't just compost food scraps! At our studio, we've started composting tissues and other paper products along with any food. As long as they're unbleached, their safe enough to be turned into garden-ready soil!
5. Look for gently used furniture, instead of buying new! Like the book case we just put into the studio! By seeking out perfectly good used furniture -- vintage pieces made from re-claimed railroad ties, barn-board, old pallets, etc -- you'll not only help keep it out of the landfill, you'll be saving money that can then be spent at local businesses!
Additional Dover 2023 Workshop Scheduled for May 1st
What will Dover be like in the year 2023? More importantly, what do Dover residents want it to be? These questions have been the central focus of a community-wide public engagement process that began on March 10. The “Dover 2023 – Building our Tomorrow” effort is designed to get the community thinking about where it is now, where it has come from in the past few decades and where it wants to get to in the future.
Christopher Parker, the City’s Director of Planning and Community Development, feels strongly that “developing a vision for our City is the key first step to building the community that we want to become.” This longer term perspective is particularly appropriate since Dover will be celebrating its 400th anniversary in 2023, and serves as the cornerstone to City’s master planning efforts.
A series of neighborhood meetings were held in March to get the community’s ideas about what Dover should be like in the year 2023. A second series of neighborhood workshops are being held in April in order to refine and prioritize the long term vision for the City. Kirt Schuman, Planning Board member and Chair of the Master Plan Steering Committee, remarked on the importance of the community’s role in developing the vision: “The Planning Board recognizes that the City’s vision must, at its core, reflect the community’s values and concerns, not just those of the Planning Board and staff.”
Recognizing that the March and April workshops were held in the evening, an additional Dover 2023 workshop has been scheduled for Tuesday, May 1, 2012 from 8AM to 10 AM in the Lecture Hall at the Dover Public Library. “We want to ensure that as many residents, business owners and property owners are able to participate,” says Tim Corwin, the Assistant City Planner. “Having a weekday morning session is a great way to provide an opportunity for those people who want to participate but who are not available in the evenings.”
The May 1st workshop will provide those who have not yet had an opportunity to participate in Dover 2023 with a chance to hear about the City’s long term vision and to provide their insights and perspective on where Dover should be headed in the next ten years.
The Dover 2023 visioning process will wrap up with a final community-wide event to be held on Saturday, May 5th at 9AM at the Dover Middle School cafeteria. “Everyone is encouraged to attend,” says Corwin. “Even if you weren’t able to make to any of the previous meetings, the May 5th meeting is the perfect opportunity for you to participate in the process and tell us what you want Dover to be.”

Service Credit Union donates to the Rochester Child Care Center
For more than a decade, Service Credit Union has contributed to the Rochester Child Care Center, this year the credit union donated $1,000.
Service Credit Union Chief Financial Officer Scott Wensley recently presented the check to Rochester Child Care Center Executive Director Christiane Casserly. Approximately 300 children, from six months to school age, attend the Rochester non-profit facility.
“We are thrilled to have received this donation from Service Credit Union,” Casserly said. “These funds will help us provide better services to the children here in the center.”
“Service Credit Union and the Rochester Child Care Center share a common goal of supporting the children in our community,” says Gordon Simmons, President/CEO of Service Credit Union. “We are proud to help the families in this city where we have two branches and a 24/7 Contact Center.”
Service Credit Union is a full service financial institution, offering a wide range of financial products to its members. With 38 branch locations including two staffed 24/7 contact centers, and full online banking services, Service Credit Union serves anyone who lives or works in New Hampshire (excluding Coos County), 4 towns in Cape Cod, MA., and all branches of the U.S. Military and Department of Defense employees and their families. With over $2 billion in assets, Service Credit Union has 21 branches in New Hampshire, one in Massachusetts, and 16 branches on U.S. military bases in Germany.
Raiche & Company CPAs, P.A. Newsletter
Here's what can happen. If your 15-year-old contributes $1,000 to a Roth IRA each year for four years starting now, in 45 years when your child is 60 years old, the Roth IRA would be worth about $33,000 if it earns a 5% annual return or $114,000 if it earns an 8% return. If your child contributes $1,500 for each of the four years, after 45 years the Roth IRA would be worth about $50,000 if it earns 5% or about $171,000 if it earns 8%. If the child contributes $2,500 for each of the four years, after 45 years the Roth IRA would be worth about $84,000 if it earns 5% or a whopping $285,000 if it earns 8%. You get the idea. With relatively modest annual contributions for just a few years, Roth IRAs can be worth eye-popping amounts by the time your child approaches retirement age.
Even though a child can withdraw Roth IRA contributions without any adverse federal income tax consequences, the best strategy is to leave as much of the account balance as possible untouched until retirement age in order to accumulate a larger federal-income-tax-free sum.

Volunteers needed to plant trees at Berry Brook
Volunteers are being sought to help plant trees at the Berry Brook restoration site on Saturday, April 28, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Volunteers will meet at Lowell Avenue and follow signs to the former water works facility. Volunteers are asked to bring water to drink, a packed lunch, gardening or work gloves, sunscreen, bug spray, a spade or shovel and buckets. Volunteers should wear work clothes and boots.
For more information or to let organizers know you are attending, call Melinda Bubier at 603-862-2818, or e-mail mindy.bubier@unh.edu.
The Berry Brook restoration project is part of Urban Watershed Renewal being implemented through water quality and stream restoration improvements that began in 2011. The Berry Brook Watershed represents a unique opportunity to work within a vibrant supportive community at a neighborhood scale, and measure watershed and ecosystem response in relation to impervious cover reductions. Impervious cover refers to surfaces such as parking lots, roadways and rooftops from which water runs off, instead of infiltrating into the soil. Impervious cover reductions are achieved by directing this run-off to treatment systems which allow for some infiltration and/or treatment of the stormwater run-off prior to discharging to Berry Brook.
The restoration project is a partnership between the City of Dover, the University of New Hampshire Stormwater Center, the Cocheco River Watershed Coalition, the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department, American Rivers, and funding by New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services.
Through a series of grants and matching funding from the City of Dover, the project will implement some of the major recommendations from the 2008 Watershed Management Plan for Berry Brook.

Dover Pride Clean Up Day 2012
Dover Main Street will host the 13th annual Dover Pride Clean Up Day on Saturday, April 28, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m.
The day will begin at 8 a.m. in the Cocheco Mills Courtyard in downtown Dover with a pancake breakfast served by the Dover Kiwanis Club. A registration table will be set up in the courtyard. Volunteers, armed with rakes, shovels, gloves and muscle, can register any time after 8:30 a.m. Wheelbarrows are always needed and volunteers asked to bring one, if possible.
Volunteers will be assigned a site somewhere in the downtown area. Event organizers will attempt best to match volunteer skills or special needs with specific sites. Each site has a captain who will be easily identified by their red bandana. Some sites require more physical strength, some are better for youngsters.
Whatever your talents, they will put them to work. Volunteers will weed, rake, plant, spread mulch, pick up debris and help make the downtown beautiful and colorful for the spring and summer. Volunteers will also be fortified by a roving refreshment stand offering coffee, soft drinks and water courtesy of Rebel Chef Cafe and Seacoast Coca Cola.
At the completion of the morning, everyone will be treated to pizza in the Courtyard, provided by Kendall Pond Pizza. The presentation of the Golden Pitchfork Award for the most enthusiastic group will take place as well.
For more information, e-mail director@dovermainstreet.org
To volunteer, visit http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0F49ADAF2CA57-dover.

So many families are overwhelmed by this devastating disease and they need our support. There’s several ways you can help - you can register to play in the tournament, become a sponsor or make a gift of a raffle prize.”

Rivermill at Dover Landing extends special rates to couples impacted by the closure of Blue Sky in York
Rivermill at Dover Landing, New Hampshire’s newest event space, was founded on the principle of providing flexible options for clients, providing an escape from the high pressure, one-size-fits-all approach to weddings and events. The partners of Rivermill are aware of the stress caused by the sudden closure of the Blue Sky and would like to extend a special offer to clients of the recently-closed property. Rivermill at Dover Landing is offering 25% off its standard room rental rates for clients from the Blue Sky who book their 2012/2013 event at the Dover venue between now and May 15, 2012. “The decision to present this offer took all of 5 minutes,” said Rivermill partner, Kirt Schuman. “Being a relatively new venue, we have some select dates available to make this transition as easy as possible for those affected by Blue Sky’s closure.”
Rivermill at Dover Landing sits in the heart of Dover’s emerging waterfront district and is the newest event venue on the Seacoast. With lofty ceilings, 1800s brick-and-beam architecture and tall, arched windows offering views of the Cochecho River, Henry Law Park and Dover’s historic City Hall clock tower, Rivermill is a distinctive location for weddings, special events and corporate functions. Rivermill is intimate enough for gatherings of 75 but large enough for a 350 guest wedding.
Rivermill at Dover Landing is located at Two Washington Street in the Picker Building of the Washington Street Mill complex in Dover. Blue Sky clients must provide proof of contract with Blue Sky and use one of several Rivermill preferred caterers for their event. Offer valid only on 2012 and 2013 events, subject to availability. For more information, please visit www.rivermillnh.com, www.facebook.com/rivermillnh, email info@rivermillnh.com or call 603-343-2192.
Laconia Savings Bank is now Bank of New Hampshire!
Laconia Savings Bank is proud to announce that they have changed their name to Bank of New Hampshire. “Laconia Savings Bank was established in 1831, right here in Laconia, the heart of New Hampshire. Over the past 181 years we have grown into a statewide organization with 21 banking offices throughout the state. We are very proud of our roots and needed a name that reflects who we have become.” explained K. Mark Primeau, President & CEO.
Laconia Savings Bank began as Meredith Bridge Savings Bank and changed its name to Laconia Savings Bank in 1869. In 1999, Laconia Savings Bank purchased nine Fleet branches, primarily north and west of Laconia. Since that time, Laconia Savings Bank has opened two new offices in Concord and offices in Bedford, Dover, Rochester and Manchester. The bank also acquired two Ocean Bank branches in Antrim and Hillsboro in 2008. “It is important for our customers and our communities to understand that we are not changing our corporate structure. We are still a mutual bank and we will not be sold. We are only changing our name.” K. Mark Primeau stated.
A brand equity study was conducted to measure the Bank’s brand awareness in different regions of the state and also the perception of the name Laconia Savings Bank outside of the Lakes Region. The results indicated that the name Laconia Savings Bank can imply that the bank is a “small bank on the lake” and the word “savings” suggests a small retail savings bank. In some cases, the name prevented consideration with businesses or individuals interested in wealth management products and services. Laconia Savings Bank, now Bank of New Hampshire, offers full service personal banking, business banking and wealth management products and services.
Bank of New Hampshire customers will not need to take any action as their existing checks and debit cards will continue to work as they always have. In the coming weeks, customers will see a new, yet similar logo. The Bank has retained the existing logo mark, the color and the tagline, New Hampshire’s Local Bank. Customers will see the same friendly faces, in the same convenient locations with the same products and services. The only thing that is changing is the name. The Bank will not relocate its headquarters outside of Laconia, which is centrally located within the Bank’s 21 offices.
Bank of Hampshire is the oldest and largest independent bank in New Hampshire. The bank has $1.1 billion dollars in assets yet maintains a community bank culture. Laconia Savings Bank was named Business of the Year in May 2011 by Business NH Magazine and has been named one of top 20 Best Companies to Work for three times, also by Business NH Magazine. “We believe that our customers are proud to be a part of New Hampshire. There is a long list of reasons to live here and we are proud to have chosen a name that reflects who we are, The Bank of New Hampshire. We intend to be here for another 181 years or more!” explains K. Mark Primeau.

Service Credit Union announces loans, shares and assets at outstanding levels for 2011
Service Credit Union once again reported outstanding results for another year of exceptional growth during its 55th Annual Meeting Thursday, March 29th at the Frank Jones Center in Portsmouth.
The credit union’s exemplary 24/7 live person service, state-of-the-art technology delivery, philosophy of exceeding members’ service expectations, vision and sound management are among the top reasons for consistent record-breaking growth year after year despite an unsettled economy.
New Hampshire Gov. John Lynch, the keynote speaker at the event, praised Service Credit Union for outstanding corporate citizenship and giving back to the state.
"I can't think of another company who has been more helpful to the state since I've been governor than Service Credit Union," Lynch said. “Service Credit Union is one of the biggest reasons why New Hampshire is so special.”
Lynch cited the leadership of Service Credit Union President/CEO Gordon Simmons for creating an organization which cares about its communities, members and employees. Whenever a natural disaster hits the state, the first phone call is from Service Credit Union, according to Lynch.
In addition, other speakers, Defense Credit Union Council President/CEO Roland A. "Arty" Arteaga, Portsmouth Mayor Eric Spear and New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Massachusetts Credit Union Leagues President Dan Egan, New Hampshire Banking Commissioner Ronald Wilbur and 157th Air Refueling Wing Commander Colonel Paul Hutchinson spoke to close to 300 members attending the annual meeting. Also in attendance was Brig. Gen. and Air National Guard Commander Carolyn Protzmann.
“Service Credit Union is the best in financial service and financial education for military members,” said Hutchinson. “Service Credit Union is a great model for success and we appreciate their efforts. They provide substantial support for the New Hampshire National Guard.”
Wilbur commented that more than 100 banks have failed and about 25 credit unions, while Service Credit Union has grown membership, increase their loan portfolio and assets.
Arteaga and Egan also commended Service Credit Union for their philanthropic efforts and growth.
The credit union’s assets, loans and shares reached unprecedented levels, and Service Credit Union paid out $15.2 million in dividends to its members. The loans outstanding were at their highest level in history for the credit union. Service Credit Union’s loan portfolio was at a record-high $1.3 billion while assets reached an all-time high of $1.9 billion.
New Hampshire credit unions as a whole saved consumers $56 million through lower rates on loans, better rates on savings and lower fees on accounts. That amounts to $293 per member household or $154 per member and 38% of the citizens of New Hampshire belong to credit unions.
A simple example of the credit union savings can be seen when comparing new auto loan rates. The average auto rate at credit union rates were more than 2.5% lower among all credit unions and 2.75% lower on loans at Service Credit Union than the average rate at a bank.
The largest credit union in New Hampshire, Service Credit Union also saw its membership increase to more than 161,000 in 2011. The credit union expanded its market in New Hampshire with an in-store branch in Concord and two traditional branches in Exeter and Hampton. Service Credit Union introduced several new products in 2011 including mobile apps with remote check deposit for the iPhone and Android, FinanceWorks, SMS text messaging and expanded E-statement access.
“In 2011, we realized record growth once again which allowed us to deliver to our member what they want when they want it, as quickly and efficiently as possible with little effort expected of them,” says Simmons. “This growth gives us the important opportunity to invest in convenience services and additional access points for our members. We have expanded our 24/7 banking to mobile apps, text messaging and remote deposit from your iPhone or Android cell phone.”
Service Credit Union originated right here in Portsmouth in 1957 by members who pooled their resources to benefit each other. Members’ resources are still pooled together for lower loan rates. Service Credit Union will continue to better serve the local communities and members as well as members worldwide through its new facility.
Spear commented that Service Credit Union “leads by example with a LEED-certified building” and have an economic goal to create wealth locally.
