Seven-Score and Ten Years
Ago... July 7, 2013 — Hopkinton resident and avid photographer and American Civil War buff John Collins captured this scene at a reenactment of the Battle of Gettysburg this past week, where in July of 1863 Union troops stopped the advancing Confederate Army, and according to some historians, turned the tide of the war. President Abraham Lincoln paid tribute to the fallen Union soldiers months later, memorializing the place with a speech that began, "Four-score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in..." To see what a sepia-toned photographic print from that period might look like, mouse-over the image. |

The 4th Annual Heather Lynne Siebert Memorial Ride Laconia Harley Davidson, Meredith, New Hampshire July 13th, 2013
Heathers Ride and Friend's 4 Eva
were founded in November of 2009. We are a charity
organization focusing our efforts on raising money for
the Heather Siebert Patient Support Fund located at
Boston Children's Hospital. The Fund helps family's with
children who are patients of the GI/Nutrition Services.
So far we have raised over $25,000 and affected over 50
family's. The fund helps family's with expenses that are
not covered by insurance such as lodging, food and
clothing, just to name a few, all in an effort to allow
the parents to remain with their children when they are
hospitalized. (Photo from last year). The inspiration
for Heather's Ride is Heather Siebert, who bravely
struggled with
a global system auto immune disease that began in 1997,
a disease so rare that they called it Heather's
Syndrome. The Hopkinton native graduated in 2004
and passed away in Oct. of 2009. In 2012 we added The Heather Siebert
Memorial Scholarship Fund at the Hopkinton High School
and we are very proud to have awarded two $500.00
scholarships to two very deserving students. How do we do this? Motorcycles, and
lots of them!!! The 4th Annual Heather Lynne Siebert
Memorial Ride will be held on July 13th at Laconia
Harley Davidson in Meredith New Hampshire. We will take
approximately 100 motorcycles on a great ride around our
Lakes Region. We will have coffee and breakfast foods
during registration, a great stop at one of our areas
top tourist destinations and when we return to Laconia
Harley Davidson, live music by The Tim and Dave Show, a
free lunch and lots and lots of prizes. Please visit our web site for more information. Heathersride.webs.com

Serendipity July 5, 2013 — Blood's Pond is almost always a good place to find wildlife upon the water. The scene is not serendipitous because the photographer stumbled upon it. He did not. It is serendipitous because while photographing the great blue heron on the right, the cormorant, a diving bird, came out of the water to hold its wings out to dry, and in doing so, took its place in a position that conforms with a classic rule of thirds of artistic composition. |

Hopkinton Man Rides to End Alzheimer’s
Hopkinton, MA (July 2, 2013) – Andy Andrews of Hopkinton will participate in the 2013 Ride to End Alzheimer's Saturday, July 13. Andrews will ride in support of his dad Herb. “My dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in the fall of 2010,” said Andrews. “I am committed to make a difference in the battle with this devastating disease. Not only for my dad in hopes that he will have the quality of life he deserves; but for me, my wife and my children.”
This year will be Andrews' second year participating in the Ride. “I would like to think I became a cyclist after training for my first ride; the 2012 Memory Ride. Since then I have ridden almost 3000 miles and recently completed the Harpoon B2B in June 2013,” said Andrews. The 43-year-old plans on riding the 100-mile century route beginning in Devens, Massachusetts.
“I hope there is cure for all forms of dementia within my lifetime so we can say goodbye to the helplessness that is associated with watching a loved one suffer without the ability to help.”
“This disease is tremendously difficult for the people affected and for their families. The Ride to End Alzheimer's not only raises much needed money for research but also raises public awareness and understanding,” said James Wessler, President/CEO of the Alzheimer’s Association, Massachusetts/New Hampshire Chapter. “We are truly grateful to Andy Andrews and all of those participating in the Ride for their commitment to finding a cure.”
This year the RIDE to End Alzheimer’s is a kickoff to the international Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) to be held in Boston July 13-18. AAIC attracts thousands of top researchers from around the globe to share their cutting edge research. Some of those researchers will also take part in the RIDE.
Alzheimer's currently affects more than 5 million Americans. The RIDE to End Alzheimer's is the largest cycling event to support research of treatments and eventually a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. Anyone can donate to the Andy Andrews or other riders online at alzmass.org/RIDE.
The Alzheimer’s Association provides services and programs for those with Alzheimer’s, their families and professional caregivers in the form of support groups, a 24/7 Helpline, care consultation, advocacy, research, and educational programs. The RIDE to End Alzheimer’s is part of the Association’s RUN TRI RIDE to End Alzheimer’s program. Information about all programs is available at alz.org/MANH. Contributed content |
