BERLIN — Congresswoman Anne Kuster discussed food insecurity at Berlin City Hall, received an update on the Nansen Ski Jump renovation and visited the Gorham Community Forest during her three-day annual North Country tour. She also met with conservationists at the AMC Highland Center in Pinkham Notch (see related story on page 3).

The congresswoman heard complaints that no Coos County projects were selected in the recent Northern Border Regional Commission funding round. The commission, a federal-state partnership that awards funding for economic and community development in northern New England, recently awarded $4.4 million in federal funds to New Hampshire projects.
