Saturday, March 30, 2019, 7 pm at Warner Town Hall.
Throughout the summer of 2014, a corporate food fight played out in dozens of communities impacting tens of thousands of workers and the economies of three states. When the faction of the Market Basket board headed by Arthur S. Demoulas fired his cousin and arch-rival Arthur T. Demoulas as long-time CEO of the successful supermarket chain, it set off a firestorm that sparked one of most unique corporate dramas in American history. It’s what the New York Times called the last stand for the middle class.
FOOD FIGHT is the story of the battle to save Market Basket, and about the power of ordinary, passionate people to rewrite corporate history.

Historical Society and School House Cafe are recreating the dinner
provided to the hundreds of skiers who came by train from Boston on the
“Snow Train.” Beginning in 1931 ski clubs from Massachusetts and
Dartmouth came to ski on the hills of Warner. By the late 1940s Boston
area businesses were enticed to bring their workers to ski, skate,
slide, and dance in Warner for their annual employee outings. The John
Hancock Life Insurance Company alone brought over 1,400 employees north
during the winter of 1955. Organizations, school and church groups all
pitched in to host these large events. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif;">Turkey
shortcake dinners with biscuits, potatoes, squash, Warner River coffee,
and apple pie were served at various locations around town. This same
dinner will be served at the Warner Town Hall. After dinner, local
historian Rebecca Courser will regale the diners with the history of the
“Snow Train, “ Warner’s ski slopes, the local businesses who got
involved and of the people who pitched in to make the weekends
successful, from kids to grandparents.</span></div>

2019, the MKIM will host the Dawnland StoryFest for the very first
time. The Dawnland StoryFest was begun five years ago by its original
creator/producer – storyteller Papa Joe Gaudet - and was held at the
Mariposa Museum and Cultural Center in Peterborough, NH for its first
four years, growing its audience size every year. This year, the
Dawnland StoryFest is celebrating its 5<sup>th</sup> anniversary in a
new location and under new sponsorship. As the only Native American
Museum in New Hampshire, the Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum in Warner, NH
is the perfect location for New Hampshire’s only Native American
Storytelling Festival. In its 26+ years of existence, MKIM has become a
vital cultural and educational locus of activity and support for the
Indigenous people of New Hampshire</span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">There
is a traditional storytelling season for the Native Peoples of the
Northeast. From the first frost in of autumn until the last frost in
springtime, winter is the cozy storytelling time of year. The purpose
of the Dawnland StoryFest is to share traditional Native American
stories during the heart of the Winter Storytelling Season in an
atmosphere that invites audience members to not only listen to these
ancient and wonderful stories, but to also have the opportunity to learn
about the traditions associated with Native American storytelling while
also learning more about Native American cultures. There will also be
opportunities for attendees to get up and practice telling a traditional
Native American story in a warm and supportive environment, if they
come to the Dawnland StoryFest prepared with a story to share. In a
way, the Dawnland StoryFest is a hybrid event: it is a storytelling
festival meant to entertain while also being a storytelling conference
meant to educate. This is actually typical of Native American
cultures. Because of the strong oral traditions that developed in
Native American societies over the millennia, storytelling became the
primary method for educating the next generations. And stories needed
to be engaging in order to capture the attention and imagination of the
listeners, so they would learn the lessons that were embedded in each
story. And sometimes a story has to be heard many times over the years
in order for the lessons to be learned - good thing they’re entertaining
stories!</span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"></span></div>

addition to new sponsorship in a new location, there is another first
for the Dawnland StoryFest this year – the featured storyteller for the
day is a woman. Anne Jennison is a New Hampshire-based storyteller who
comes from countless generations of folks who have lived in the
Northeastern Woodlands. But Anne’s worldview - and voice as a
storyteller – has also been shaped by having lived in many far-flung
places around the world as well as the New Hampshire Seacoast. While
Anne is a dyed-in-the-wool New Englander with both European and Abenaki
heritage (Metis) who comes from a family with a strong oral tradition,
she has also had rigorous training in her art form. With Master’s
degrees in both Storytelling and in History, Anne brings a wealth of
knowledge - polished by 30 years of experience as a performing
storyteller - to her retelling of timeless Native American stories. </span><span style="background: #FAFAFA; color: #050000; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt; line-height: 200%;">Additionally,
six other experienced storytellers will also be featured at this year’s
Dawnland StoryFest: HearsCrow (Narragansett), Darlene Kascak
(Schaghticoke</span>),<span style="background: #FAFAFA; color: #050000; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt; line-height: 200%;">

Simon Brooks as the MC. The very modest admission fee for this event
is $5.50. <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>Free admission for Native Americans.

note: The Dawnland StoryFest 2019 is geared toward adults, including
young adults, who are interested in learning more about Native American
Storytelling traditions. This event is not really suitable for young

festival.</span><span style="color: #050000; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .1pt; line-height: 200%;"> <span style="background: #FAFAFA;">This event is funded, in part, by a grant from the NH Humanities.</span></span></div>

Double Knitting - design and knit a reversible hat (warm and beautiful)</div>
<div>
5-6 Weeks; Thursdays starting <span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT766_com_zimbra_date">January 24</span> </div>

9:15-11:15 am </div>
<div>
at the Sugar River Bank, Warner, NH</div>
<div>
$50 (includes 12 hours instruction, pattern, design resources, private help!)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This
is a wonderful technique that few knitters know how to do. It involves
two color knitting and attention to detail but the results are beautiful
and practical.</div>
<div>
1. In class one: we will discuss materials and
design. You will design your own picture pattern from resources I will
bring or a color design you have seen that you would like to
incorporate.</div>
<div>
2. Then you will shop for your materials, which will include two contrasting yarn colors. I will supply the pattern.</div>
<div>
3. In class two: we will learn the technique of double knitting on a swatch.</div>
<div>
4. Class three: We will begin your own, one of a kind hat.</div>
<div>
We should be able to complete the project in 5 weeks but have an extra class built in if needed.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This class is limited in size.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This
is a fun class that will challenge and increase your skills! You can
carry the lessons in design and the double knit technique to future
projects.</div>
