To Rabbi Freelund, I welcome you and thank you for your inspiration. Your words nourish our soul. To our introductory singers, I thank you and to our High School students, what an incredible performance. Plato said "where there is youth, there is hope". What a fine example of that this evening. Town Councilors, School Committee and Housing Authority Members, Madam Town Clerk and Town Collector, fellow Town employees, distinguished members of our Legislative Delegation, County and Fire District Officials, ladies and gentlemen: The state of our.community reminds me of the opening of A Tale of _ Two Cities,where"it was the best of times. It was the worst of times". We live in a time filled with great contradictions and extremes, from good to bad. Ladies and gentlemen, the challenges we face today are not new. Our regional economic downturn is not our first, nor will it be our last. With A , the cyclical nature of our national, state and local economy, our upswing }' over the recent past was inevitably to be followed by a downturn.A time i 1' of great fortune followed by a time of great challenge and adversity. Adversity. We have seen it and lived it all before. In the 1780's when most Barnstable residents couldn't even.pay their taxes they were so poor, we had to ask for forgiveness from the State.We've lived through the great depression, through world wars, through 9/11 and through inevitable economic cycles. Barnstable residents have enjoyed the good times and sacrificed through the bad. I am not here tonight,to.paint a rosy picture. This economic down- turn is global in nature, runs deep in our community, is volatile and is . • likely to rebound slowly. Like almost every other community in this country, we are facing challenges not seen in some time. But rest assured, I am not here to complain about our challenges. I " am here to talk about our future.Not where we are,but where we're going. Not dwelling on the challenges we face, but contemplating the possibili- ties of our time. Not pointing fingers at Washington or Boston, but turn- ing within for the answers we need. Change is the law of life. Those who look only to the past or present are very likely to miss the future of I' Barnstable.We are a strong and resilient community that will get through this period of-adversity and end up stronger for it. We continue to be a community of strong minded and creative citizens. Citizens who, in their own lives, know something about adversity. Citizens who refuse to wallow in the challenges dealt to them, but insist in fighting for a brighter future ' for their families and for their community. We will meet a few of our • neighbors this evening who have lived through their share of challenges. They have met them head on and are shining examples of what is good and decent about Barnstable. Individuals who know that things do not just happen—things are made to happen. Their strength, their successes, • their stories make all of us proud to call Barnstable our home. Tonight we will hear their stories. And in so doing, hear all the testimony we need to get us through these difficult times. There is a Latin saying, Ad Astra Per Aspera. You'll see it tonight when you join us at our reception in the Astro Park. There, inscribed on - -2009 ANNUAL REPORT 13 i ti TOWN MANAGER REPORT a granite bench, we are reminded of our challenge, Ad real challenges. We meet them tonight and we meet their Astra Per Aspera. It means, to the stars through difficulty. family, a family whose core values include a love of God It encapsulates the resilience and determination displayed and a loving family giving them the strength that got them by our residents over the years and reflects the adversity through a tumultuous time, a time that most of us can't and the promise of our present and future.

Reviewing the reasons for such an increase, brought to our attention, that due to the economy,lost jobs,health insurance and prescription coverage,numer- ous veterans have sought help and coverage with this department and the VA. We help veterans obtain benefits under two programs,one being with the VA and one being under the town's Chapter 115 Program through Veteran's Services. Under the VA program we assisted over 6,336 veterans this year and helped them obtain over$6 million in financial assistance from the Federal Government. We also assisted 1,325 veterans in the enrollment of the VA Health Care System so that they can get their prescriptions from the VA for a reduced rate and be seen. medically by specialists within the VA Healthcare system. Under the Chapter 115 program the Town of Barnstable spent over$300,000 directly to needy veterans who required our help.The number of veterans seeking this help was 540 and they received help in such areas as ordinary living, heat, medical, hospitalization, doctor, medication, dental and other related medical costs. Our goal is to assist all our veterans in obtaining any and all the benefits they might be eligible for and to get those benefits to the veteran as quickly as possi- ble. We encourage all veterans who might be seeking some assistance for veterans benefits to contact our office immediately so we can get the paperwork in place. Respectfully submitted, w s Sidney L.
