the bar There's a reason why multiple artists have said BNHP is their favorite venue to perform at in the country which is the perfect segue way into reason #3 maybe it's the close proximity to Lake Winnipesaukee maybe it's the giant Coronas they sell inside the venue But every show I have been to at the BankNH Pavilion the people are happy to be there and are embracing the gift of live music But every venue has it's strengths and it's weaknesses for the BankNH Pavilion the pros certainly outweigh the cons The biggest thing that people complain about on Reddit is the lack of accommodations near the venue and what a struggle it is to take a rideshare app due to the lack of drivers/cell service The venue really can't control the accommodations in surrounding towns If you don't mind a little more of a rugged experience camping at their campgrounds comes highly recommended It also gets you into the show earlier and takes care of the whole parking situation you could but it does not come highly recommended A user on Reddit who goes by the name Skate_603 said there is a rideshare pickup area near the venue but many times Gilford PD will close down the main road to the pickup area This results in pretty much all rideshare drivers (unless it's a scheduled ride AND at the pickup area an hour before show ends) picking up from the liquor store plaza I have splurged for the VIP parking a few times and it was 100% worth it It puts you a lot closer to the venue and it's much easier to get out after the show if all parties in your group want to partake in adult beverages and no one wants to be the designated driver Gallery Credit: Megan This is the age old question.\nRead More We LOVE going to shows at the BankNH Pavilion. It is one of my favorite concert venues for a multitude of reasons. I love that there are so many different booths and food options inside the venue.

Berlin-Gorham's Hudson Goulet (9) during a Division III boys' hockey semifinal on Wednesday at Plymouth State University’s Hanaway Rink to advance to its third finals appearance in four years Belmont-Gilford’s Evan Guerin (6) skates up the ice with the puck during a Division III boys’ hockey semifinal on Wednesday at Plymouth State University’s Hanaway Rink Last year the Bulldogs were upset in the quarterfinals of the Division III hockey playoffs with last year’s early tournament exit still fresh in their minds 4 Belmont-Gilford boys’ hockey team took a 3-0 lead early in the third period and held off a late Mountaineers (14-3-2) comeback as the Bulldogs defeated top-seeded Berlin-Gorham in the D-III semifinals at Plymouth State University’s Hanaway Rink on Wednesday night 2 Kingswood (15-3-1) at SNHU Arena in Manchester on Saturday for the D-III title This is their third finals that they’re going to in four years,” Bulldogs head coach Jason Parent said “I think last year’s early exit taught them that every game is a must-win situation and you can’t get anything for granted it’s what you learn the most from sometimes.” That loss Parent is referring to is last season’s quarterfinal defeat when his Belmont-Gilford team After a scoreless first period and a nearly-scoreless second Belmont-Gilford sophomore Max Ryder found the back of the net with 1:51 remaining in the frame to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead The Bulldogs wasted little time in the third period with Ryder netting his second goal less than four minutes into the third period and sophomore Jaxson Lien scoring 49 seconds later to make it 3-0 Belmont-Gilford did a good job possessing the puck and not letting the Mountaineers get near the Bulldog goal “I thought we played a solid game and we executed our game plan which was really just to get pucks deep as much as we could and capitalize on opportunities when they came to us,” Parent said But that all changed in the final three minutes of the game A tripping penalty was called on Belmont-Gilford’s Aiden Stafford with 3:13 left in the game and Berlin-Gorham opted to pull junior goalie Grant Williams (14 saves) for an extra skater setting up a 6-on-4 advantage for the Mountaineers Berlin-Gorham junior Hudson Goulet scored to make it 3-1 (assisted by juniors Boyd Poulin and Jordan Bledsoe) with 2:11 left Bulldog senior goalie Carson McGreevy made most of his third-period saves in a flurry over the next minute with Bledsoe finally getting the puck by him with 1:29 left to make it 3-2 (Goulet and sophomore Cooper Ladd assisted) Belmont-Gilford didn’t just learn lessons from last season’s tournament exit The Bulldogs had prepared for this moment in practice and Parent reminded them of that during a timeout in the final minute of play “We had practiced about 30 minutes of our last practice of 6-on-5 (in the scenario that we’re) up a goal,” Parent said We felt our best opportunity to win the game was to get control off the faceoff that gave us the opportunity to seal the win.” That’s exactly what the Bulldogs were able to accomplish winning the faceoff and eventually clearing the puck forcing Berlin-Gorham’s final shot in the closing seconds to come from near its own blueline Belmont-Gilford failed to beat the Mountaineers twice during the regular season The Bulldogs are in a similar situation with the No Belmont-Gilford took a gamble in its second meeting with Kingswood pulling the goalie late in overtime in hopes of winning a game that would’ve given the Bulldogs a higher seed

football team in the ACC became the first NH-born player in the Under Armor Next All-America showcase and recently signed with the University of Virginia Cavaliers’ football team in the ACC New Hampshire isn’t known as a football powerhouse a star is discovered and becomes a highly coveted recruit That’s the case of Phillips Exeter Academy’s Isaiah Reese who just inked a deal to play for the University of Virginia in the Atlantic Coast Conference He also recently became the first football player to represent the Granite State in the 17-year history of the Under Armour NEXT All-America Game a showcase game in Florida that features the country’s top 100 high school recruits I feel like the state of New Hampshire is finally getting recognized and I’m just really happy that I could be a part of that,” he said “I said that when I was at the Under Armor game maybe give a couple of kids some opportunities along the way.” Before transferring to PEA during the 2023-24 academic year Reese was named the NHIAA D-II Player of the Year while at Gilford High School explained that Reese was the one who approached the academy because he believed that it would give him more exposure and an opportunity to develop I’m learning more ways to become a better learner on the football field Because at this school we have a lot of NFL guys on staff,” Reese added He’s one of four senior homegrown Granite Staters who were key to PEA’s success this past season and all four are moving on to play Division I football next fall a defensive back from Hudson committed to Fordham University; Cody Szymansky a wide receiver from Salem committed to Towson University; JJ Bright who will stay close to play for Merrimack College Reese is the biggest standout of the bunch. At 6-foot-3, 221-pounds, the defensive back’s highlight tape is phenomenal he has demonstrated all the qualities a Power Five college wants from a high school senior Not only that but he’s also excelled in basketball and javelin during his time at PEA “One of the benefits about being at Exeter is we have coaches from all over the country coming to campus And so Isaiah certainly benefited from getting to meet college football coaches from East to West So that was certainly something that helped him get exposure,” Voulgaris said to attract so many of the coaches that have come to recruit him.” Reese’s most evident talent is his ability to read quarterbacks and offensive linemen and he agrees that his football intelligence is his biggest asset His size and strength allow him to rush the edge and pressure the pocket but he’s also speedy enough to cover receivers at all levels His highlight tape shows multiple plays where he makes good tackles on short passes and disrupts plays downfield Part of his defensive success comes from playing on the offensive end drawing attention from defensive opponents “The thing that makes Isaiah unique is we were able to put him in a multitude of spots on the football field which is really attractive to colleges,” said Voulgaris His abilities earned him multiple honors this past season including the Northeast Football Conference (NEFC) Defensive Player of the Year and he was named Exeter’s Most Valuable Player we’ve had him play at all three levels on the defensive side of the ball he’s played at the second level as a nickel and he’s played at the first level as a defensive end “So by being put into all those different situations it’s allowed him to see the game from different perspectives and influence the game from different perspectives.” All this led to the 19-year-old receiving offers from multiple D-I programs such as Boston College South Carolina and the University of Virginia the decision came down to which school wanted him most academics and which one could provide him the most opportunities to play I really felt like I needed to go where I’m wanted because that’s what’s going to benefit me the most and Virginia had that for me,” said Reese The level of football they played in the ACC is the second-best conference for football and then the coaching staff is really amazing.” He added that he’s most excited about the state-of-the-art coaching and facilities at Virginia following a meal plan and everything else that goes along with being in a premier FBS program “I’m really looking forward to the brothers that I’m gonna make at UVA because there’s no bond like football a couple guys who I played against with Deerfield really looking forward to working with him,” Reese said my goal is obviously to play as long as I can Belmont-Gilford sophomore forward Max Ryder (3) scored two goals including one in the last minute of the third period to lead the Bulldogs to a 3-2 victory

37 seconds left in the third period to send the game to overtime Belmont-Gilford senior forward Evan Guerin (6) scores a goal two minutes into overtime to lift the Bulldogs to the D-III boys’ hockey championship The Belmont-Gilford boys’ hockey team poses on the ice at SNHU Arena in Manchester after winning the Division III championship game Belmont-Gilford senior forward Evan Guerin picked the puck up in the neutral zone and had a touch of magic in his stick that he used to move seamlessly through Kingswood’s defense and around his back as he rounded the left-side face-off circle and approached the goal with speed and Guerin sent a powerful shot into the top of the net 4 Belmont-Gilford (14-4-2) to the Division III boys’ hockey championship with a 3-2 overtime victory over No 2 Kingswood (15-3-1) at SNHU Arena on Saturday and all I knew was we needed to do something here The Bulldogs needed some late heroics and completed the comeback after trailing by a goal in the second period to win its second upset of the tournament that I thought those guys were pretty gassed Their (defense) kept trying to rush the puck I thought that was maybe a little bit of a mistake on their part and maybe they should have hung back a little bit and rested and here we are,” Belmont-Gilford head coach Jason Parent said Belmont-Gilford opened the scoring in the first period with a goal by sophomore forward Max Ryder but was unable to find a goal for most of regulation The Knights came out in the second period with energy and slowly swung the momentum pendulum in their favor with strong defense Kingswood’s offense turned it up in the second period and quickly scored two goals with less than six minutes remaining The first came from junior forward James Rogers and the second was a combination play as senior forward Jackson O’Keefe passed it to his younger brother assisted by Guerin and sophomore forward Jaxen Lien His game-tying shot from the left side completely re-energized Belmont-Gilford going into overtime Senior goalie Carson McGreevy was also clutch in the win and his praises were sung loudly by his coach “They outshot us pretty heavy last time we played them But we’ve got the best goalie in our division maybe one of the best goalies in the state So we knew he was going to keep us in the game,” Parent said Belmont-Gilford achieved its second title win in the past four years after losing in the final in 2022 before winning it all in 2023 This year’s title caps a huge comeback season for the Bulldogs who went out early after getting upset in the quarterfinals last season Parent credited his coaching staff for helping to create an environment and team culture that attracts quality players that have played in three championship games in the last four seasons Rain giving way to foggy conditions overnight Brian Horvath appeared Wednesday before Judge Ryan Guptill in Laconia district court for a probable cause hearing in the Sept LACONIA — A Gilford man who allegedly shot and killed his brother earlier this month at their parents’ home will have his case moved on to Superior Court but until then he’ll be under house arrest in the place where the shooting occurred 9 arraignment and initial bail hearing for Brian Horvath Gilford police responded to a report that a person had been shot in the chest at 28 Timber Lane Horvath was subsequently charged with manslaughter and reckless conduct with a deadly weapon implied that the victim was Horvath’s brother but that identification was not conclusively made until Wednesday Under direct examination by Belknap County Attorney Keith Cormier who was the first officer to arrive at the Horvath home on Sept and Brian Horvath in the basement with David Jr “The victim’s face was blue and gray and he did not appear to be breathing,” Tomasetti said He added that there were two guns in the area near where David Jr.’s body lay — a black Glock-style handgun and a blue or teal colored Ruger handgun It was determined that the Ruger belonged to Brian Horvath while the other handgun belonged to David Jr While initially claiming that he was in the restroom when he heard a gunshot During a later interview with New Hampshire State Police detectives Horvath admitted he’d held the handgun that shot his brother Tomasetti said Horvath’s speech was slurred his eyes appeared to be “bloodshot and glassy,” and had the smell of alcohol on his breath when was taken to Gilford Police headquarters for a non-custodial interview and told investigators that he had consumed “two-and-a-half beers” before the shooting The Horvath brothers were “pretty unfamiliar with firearms,” Tomasetti said and had “no special training” in their use pointed out that the charge of manslaughter does not automatically carry a “no bail” condition asking the judge to free his client on personal recognizance and to order that he wear a monitor while continuing to live Guptill agreed that Horvath did not pose a threat to himself or others and granted the request on several conditions among them that Horvath only leave his parent’s house to go to work or to case-related meetings

Opens in a new window ©2025 BYU ATHLETICS Jernaro Gilford had no idea at the time but when he picked off Utah’s Lance Rice late in the fourth quarter in 2001 he did much more than seal BYU’s come-from-behind victory Gilford made an indelible impression on Bryan Kehl “I was a senior in high school sitting in the student-recruiting section That play was iconic,” Kehl told the “Y’s Guys” podcast this week He was such an incredible player and a great teammate Gilford is still making plays in the Cougars secondary — as the cornerbacks coach and newly promoted defensive passing game coordinator “He has maximized the output of the guys he’s had,” he said “The way we have covered on the outside and at the back end is unprecedented I would argue that we have never been so complete in our secondary tackling and (being) assignment sound and that is why they were so good last year.” BYU finished its 11-2 season tied with Texas for the most interceptions (22) and ranked No 1 in total defense and scoring defense in the Big 12 I was hoping for six wins and then they went through the roof “The best programs compete every single year What can I do to get better?” The former linebacker said about his approach to spring drills 21 tackles-for-loss and three interceptions at BYU (2002 Watching the Giants beat the Patriots on Feb 2012 in Super Bowl XLVI was a painful sight for Kehl to see New York’s 2008 fourth-round draft pick was released in 2011 and quickly signed by the lowly Rams “I still remember sitting at my parent’s house all by myself watching that game anger and resentment (with) all my buddies celebrating on the field,” Kehl said Adding salt to his emotional wound was the fact that it wasn’t the first time the Giants won the Big Game without him “I missed (the Super Bowl) twice because (New York) won it the year before I got there and they won it the year after I left,” he said Kehl played 72 games over six seasons in the NFL (2008-13) Among his 95 solo tackles was a hit he will never forget Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson took the handoff and the Giants rookie stuck him in the backfield for a loss “He got up afterward and tapped me on the helmet and genuinely said “It was one of those moments that was like He’s such a superstar and that interaction was cool.” Peterson retired after 15 seasons and remains No 5 among the NFL’s all-time leading rushers with 14,918 yards He would have had a few more had Kehl not dropped him in the backfield in 2008 Dave McCann is a sportswriter and columnist for the Deseret News and is a play-by-play announcer and show host for BYUtv/ESPN+.

treatment based on an individual’s vaccination status mother of three in desperate need of a kidney transplant says that’s exactly what Dartmouth Hitchcock is doing to her And her case has caught the attention of Speaker of the House Sherm Packard (R-Londonderry) Shannon Buttermore told NHJournal on Monday that administrators at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC) in Lebanon are refusing to allow her to even apply for a transplant because she declined to opt-in for a second COVID-19 vaccine shot in 2022 lawmakers passed the bipartisan Patients’ Bill of Rights legislation a measure signed into law in May 2022 specifying that a patient in New Hampshire “shall not be denied admission or services based solely on the patient’s vaccination status.” “I started losing kidney function in October,” said Buttermore who is facing a future of relying on dialysis treatment “I don’t understand how a hospital can just ignore state law.” attorney Michael Connett of Siri and Glimstad sent a letter to Dartmouth Hitchcock CEO Joanne M Conroy and other officials referencing Buttermore’s case and the state law that they believe covers it “DHMC’s vaccination requirement policy is in direct violation of New Hampshire law,” the letter states adding that the medical center’s own website includes a direct link to the law (Buttermore) is prepared to pursue any and all legal recourse available to her.” Siri & Glimstad is familiar with political battles and has been criticized in media reports as being “anti-vaxx.” Buttermore said she’s committed to a long battle She’s been fighting kidney-related ailments since she was six years old Doctors discovered a rare deformity causing waste from her bladder to be pushed into her kidneys She was placed on a transplant list and received a kidney from a deceased donor we are all on borrowed time,” Buttermore wrote in a 2016 blog post “I will eventually need another life-saving transplant.” and Buttermore once again needs a new kidney But Dartmouth Hitchcock won’t perform the procedure “We’ve sent demand letters (to Dartmouth Hitchcock) but they’ve gotten us nowhere,” she added Buttermore says she is not opposed to vaccines She says she’s received all but her second COVID-19 shot The gridlock has prompted others to get involved Jim Kofalt (R-Wilton) told NHJournal he learned about Buttermore’s ordeal and reached out to Packard on her behalf “We’re just trying to get Dartmouth Hitchcock to do the right thing.” Packard then sent a letter to Dartmouth Hitchcock demanding answers “While we understand the need to address complex issues surrounding COVID-19 and other potential illnesses DHMC must comply with state law,” Packard wrote see no justifiable reason for any further delay in revoking a policy that directly violates this statute “This concern will be closely monitored to ensure our citizens’ rights are protected and that healthcare access is available to everyone regardless of vaccination status,” Packard wrote Kofalt pointed out the statute “passed with the overwhelming support of both chambers” and added that Packard’s letter “expressed a widely held belief among legislators that we need to take a firm stand in protecting the rights of our citizens “DHMC needs to reverse its policy and comply with the law immediately.” Then there is the allegation that the hospital is violating state law The New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office told NHJournal it is looking into the case “The Attorney General’s Office is aware of the issue and we are carefully reviewing the situation and applicable law,” spokesman Michael Garrity told NHJournal a DHMC spokesperson declined to give a definitive answer about whether or not the facility is denying Buttermore care or if it is doing so because of her vaccination status “We are aware of Speaker Packard’s letter to Dr Conroy and understand the importance of the concerns raised,” the spokesperson said in a statement “We are actively engaging in comprehensive clinical discussions regarding this matter and plan to address it thoroughly A formal statement will be shared as soon as these discussions conclude.” the law’s vaccine provision was addressed during public hearings by New Hampshire Hospital Association representatives Melissa Blasek (R-Merrimack) sponsored the Patients Bill of Rights Bill and recalled that NHHA dismissed concerns that unvaccinated patients would be turned away without a specific state statute mandating otherwise “They insisted that something like this had no chance of happening that this exact scenario never happens,” Blasek told NHJournal “An American Medical Association representative even testified that doing so would be completely unethical.” who was a vocal critic of COVID-19 shutdown policies a nonprofit aimed at pushing back against government overreach She has been an active participant in Buttermore’s efforts told NHJournal she is also looking to apply for a transplant at Maine Medical Center “My reason for staying in this fight is so that Dartmouth Hitchcock doesn’t do this to other patients,” Buttermore said I’ve pushed so many buttons on this topic that I’m not sure I’d go through with a transplant at Dartmouth Hitchcock myself “I’ve already had such a rough experience with them I just don’t feel confident going there anymore even if I can.” EDITOR’S NOTE:
