GREENâS GRANT â Thirty-one Gorham High School seniors enjoyed an in-person commencement at which they were awarded their diplomas at 6 p.m. on Friday evening at the base of Mount Washington, thanks to the generosity of the family-owned Auto Road and Great Glen.
This was the second-year in a row that a far more spectacular venue was used, so that attendees could enjoy the more relaxed social-distancing measures now considered suitable for COVID-19 when outdoors.
The Gorham Police Department, the Sheriffâs Department, Gorham Fire and EMS, and state police escorted the Class of 2021 motorized parade with three vehicles allowed to accompany each family, starting north of town, through downtown, and then turning south on Route 16 to an unpaved parking lot.
Mountaineers best Blue Hawks for first win
February 11, 2021BERLIN Following a disappointing 0-4 start to the season, the Berlin-Gorham girls hockey team won its first game of the season this past Wednesday at the Notre Dame Arena.

Goals by four different Lady Mountaineers would lead the way for coach Craig Bartoli as Olivia O Neil would register 18 saves in her first career varsity victory between the pipes.
