Jennifer A. Lemire of Wiggin & Nourie in Portsmouth has been elected President of the Board of Directors of Ballet New England, a professional dance company and school based in Portsmouth that recently celebrated its 25th anniversary. Lemire also serves on the boards of both the NH Trial Lawyers Association and the NH Women’s Bar Association. She is a past president of the Rockingham County Bar Association and past chair of the Exeter Area Chamber of Commerce. She was admitted to the NHBA in 1995. Tessier Honored by Manchester Water Works Thomas J. Tessier of Christy & Tessier in Manchester and a member of the Board of Water Commissioners for 23 years, was recently honored by the Manchester Water Works for his significant contributions over the years. Tessier began his connection with the Water Board while a student, working summers while in high school and college. He became a member of the Board of Commissioners in 1974, following his father who served on the Board for 18 years. Tessier has been a member of the NH Bar Association since 1963. Geiger Joins Energy Alliance Council Susan Geiger, of Orr & Reno in Concord, and a member of the NH Bar since 1980, has been appointed to the Advisory Council of the New England Energy Alliance. This new organization includes a diverse group of energy providers, business and trade organizations, labor unions and others who are concerned about potential energy shortages and the impact on New England. Geiger is a former commissioner of the NH Public Utilities Commission. Rick Weinstein’s Bridge Playing in the News Merrick (Rick) Weinstein, an attorney with Divine & Nyquist in Manchester and a member of the NH Bar since 1983, continues to be “hooked” on Contract Bridge. His participation in formal bridge competition was highlighted recently in the Hippo Press, an entertainment newspaper circulated in the Manchester and Concord areas. “It’s a great social activity,” said Weinstein, who placed second in a state tournament in 1998—although he says that was a “fluke” and that he hasn’t played that well before or since.
