Hello all, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
The club has had a very busy fall, work crews have been out in full force and continue with the mild weather to do trail work. They have built 5 new bridges, cut brush, cleaned culverts, staked, roped fields, and installed new signposts, which have advertisements for our sponsors. Please take notice and support those services that support us. Our big trail project this year was to install 2 new bridges out behind Frudenberg-NOK, across from Hannaford. This trail we call our Services Trail because it goes to gas stations and restaurants. Last year we could not get there easily because of the water, going over, not under the bridge, now the problem is solved. The little bridge down at Profile Falls on Corridor 11 had washed away, so we replaced it. We re-decked the bridge out behind the Medical Center and put a bridge over a long-time water hole under the power lines.
The Club also had been doing some fundraisers this summer we held our 3rd annual Newfound Classic Car Show. We also had our second online 32 Auction where we raised a lot of money for the club. Thank you to all the help with those. We have well over 2000 VIP hours this season and we still have grooming to do.
The Guys have been getting the groomers ready, new batteries, oil changes, etc. getting everything ready for that first big storm.
We had a great turnout for our annual Christmas party and potluck. Don’t forget we have meetings in Jan, Feb, March, and April. We look forward to seeing you.
We sold a special shirt during the Auction for our 35th year, we still have a few if anyone is interested, they are $20 contact Lucy Ford 603-744-5497
We have shirts and sweatshirts in stock, and we will be selling them at the Newfound Country Store in Bridgewater.
Don’t forget to join our club and get your voucher. You can do this on the club web site, or the NHSA website. Unfortunately, I can no longer do it for you but the process is easy and you get the voucher instantaneously.

Welcome to our 35th year. .
The club has been hard at work getting ready for the 3rd annual Car show the Newfound Classic. Beth has been hard at work with her group.
getting many items for the raffle baskets that we will give away at the show. If we are unable to have the show due to rain, we will be having an online auction and all the baskets will be auctioned off at that time. I would like to thank all the donors for supporting the club. Once again Beth has outdone herself.
We have received Grant and Aid for the trail to services and will be looking for help Nigel will be posting trail work dates and times as needed. Don’t forget every hour of time donated is worth a point in the VIP program, 25 points gets you a shirt, 50 points gets you a sweatshirt, and 75 will get you a vest this year. Any time spent doing anything for or with the club is worth points. Come join the VIPs.
Club Membership this year has changed, I sent out renewals not knowing that the NHSA was going to drastically change the portal and make
it harder and more costly for me to do your membership. If you have sent in your membership already, I have signed you up, but if you have not, I ask that you do it yourself in the NHSA portal. Go to https://tinyurl.com/AlexandriaLedgeClimbers
follow the instructions and if you have any questions or problems call the NHSA directly.
Thank you.
