Brandon mosquito district expanding to include Pittsford By LEE J. KAHRS PITTSFORD — After years of discussion, the town of Pittsford is dipping its proverbial foot into the local mosquito control pool. The Pittsford selectboard unani- mously approved joining the Brandon Leicester Sudbury Gos- hen Mosquito Control District as a
member town. The board on May 18 accepted the district’s invitation to join as a member and will participate in lar- val sampling, data collection and larvacide application effective July 1, for an annual contribution to the BLSG of $15,000. Pittsford will also be advertising
for two volunteer members and an alternate to the BLSG Board. Pittsford Town Manager John Haverstock said in an interview that the board opted not to participate in the spraying of adulticide that the BLSG does each summer to control mosquitoes. Rather, Pittsford will ¿UVW IRFXV RQ WUHDWLQJ VZDPS DQG
wetland areas with larvacide, to see if that will be enough to control the mosquito population. “We opted not to do adulticide spraying,” Haverstock said. “Voters approved larvacide dipping, data collection and treatment as needed. It’s a more modest approach and uses all safe material.”
For several years like clockwork, summer has brought mosquitoes to Pittsford and residents complain and ask about joining the BLSG. But Pittsford is known for keeping a lid on municipal spending and voters would not approve appro- priations for mosquito control. (See Pittsford, Page 3)

Adults  take  cue  from  students A  recent  decision  by  the  4th  right  of  all  our  Vermont  students.  U.S.  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  No  Vermonter  should  fear  that  FRQÂżUPHG WKDW  transgender  stu- his  or  her  identity  —  whether  dents  should  be  able  to  use  the  VH[XDO UDFLDO OLQJXLVWLF RU FXO- bathroom  that  is  consistent  with  tural  —  should  lead  others  to  do  their  gender  identity. him  or  her  harm.

the  lives  of  some  of  our  students. Change  is  hard,  and  our  schools  are  at  the  forefront  of  this  change.  Our  public  schools,  more  than  any  other  institu- tion,  are  tasked  with  forcing  us  to  have  the  hard  conversations  about  what  it  means  and  what  it  looks  like  to  live  in  a  pluralist  democracy  that  is  working  to- ward  shared  goals.  We  love  them  and  we  hate  them,  because  they  are  vehicles  for  our  aspirations,  as  well  DV UHÀHFWLRQV RI RXU FKDO- lenges.

Letter  (Continued  from  Page  4) the  lottery,  27  percent  of  people  make  a  donation  while  45  percent  do  so  when  they  are  given  lottery  tickets  and  a  chance  to  win  a  prize.  This  makes  perfect  sense  (even  to  an  economist). Well,  what  about  the  amounts  donated?  For  those  448  people  who  made  a  donation,  the  average  amount  given  was  $9.81.  What  is  interesting  here  is  that  the  donors  in  the  lottery  treatments  gave  $8.72,  on  average,  while  those  who  did  not  have  the  chance  to  “play  lottoâ€?  gave  an  average  of  $15.05.  That’s  right,  people  without  the  chance  to  win  a  cash  prize  gave  more. Now  this  clearly  does  not  “jibeâ€?  with  standard  economic  theory,  so  what  can  be  going  on  here?  A  book  I  just  got  in  the  mail  from  a  former  adviser  of  mine  provides  a  good,  DQG YHU\ HIÂżFLHQW H[SODQDWLRQ All  you  have  to  do  is  read  the  title:  “The  Moral  Economy:  Why  good  incentives  are  no  substitute  for  good  citizens.â€? From  a  non-Âstandard  (i.e.,  be-Â
havioral)  economics  point  of  view,  what  can  happen  is  that  incen- tives  can  sometimes  “crowd  outâ€?  pro-Âsocial  behavior  like  giving  to  charity.  For  people  who  wish  to  fo- FXV RQ KHOSLQJ RXU EHQHÂżFLDU\ WKH lottery  and  its  prize  can  make  the  fundraising  effort  seem,  for  lack  of  better  term,  “icky.â€? In  other  words,  many  people  want  all  the  money  to  go  to  the  charity  and  are  not  interested  in  winning  a  prize,  especially  if  that  prize  reduces  the  amount  going  to  charity.  In  fact,  some  of  our  donors  in  the  lottery  treatments  refused  their  tickets.  These  people  are  warmed  by  the  perception  of  them- selves  as  doing  good  and  don’t  want  this  self-Âimage  muddied  by  other  incentives  like,  in  this  case,  wanting  to  win  a  cash  prize. Putting  this  altogether,  the  punchline  is  that  although  the  lotteries  increased  participa- tion  substantially  —  and  this  is  clearly  good  for  the  amount  raised,  because  the  donations  were  substantially  lower  in  the  lottery  treatments,  perhaps  because  of  this Â

SALISBURY  —  The  five-Âyear  campaign  to  restore  the  tower  of  the  Salisbury  Congregational  Church  was  in  the  home  stretch  this  spring  when  it  hit  a  new  snag.  The  clock  and  bell  stages  were  repaired  last  season,  and  the  bell  rang  out  over  the  village  for  the  ¿ UVW WLPH LQ \HDUV RQ &KULVWPDV Eve.  However,  painters  scraping  the  spire  this  spring  discovered  that  it  was  also  in  serious  condi- tion.  Funds  were  diverted  from  painting  and  other  repairs  to  deal  with  the  emergency.  The  church,  which  has  raised  some  $220,000  for  its  project  with  grants  from  the  state  of  Vermont  and  the  Walter  Cerf  Fund,  with  the  sale  of  its  parsonage,  with  fund- raising  projects,  and  with  the  gifts  of  friends,  finds  itself  still  depen- dent  on  its  angels  to  complete  the  necessary  work  of  conserving  this  Addison  County  landmark.  New  angels  have  appeared  to  help  in  this  effort  through  the  donation  of  an  elaborate  doll- house  to  be  raffled  this  summer. Â
The  eight-Âroom  structure  was  constructed,  decorated  and  completely  furnished  over  a  period  of  eight  months  by  octogenarian  Claudette  DeVercelly  of  Altavista,  9D WR EH UDIĂ€ HG WR EHQHÂż W KHU KRPH church. Virginia  friends  of  the  Salisbury  church  rallied  their  acquaintances  to  win  the  dollhouse  with  the  purpose  of  sending  it  north  as  a  gift  to  help  the  Salisbury  steeple  project.  The  dollhouse,  which  will  be  on  display  throughout  the  summer,  is  now  poised  to  serve  its  second  fundrais- ing  role,  and  ultimately  to  make  some  child  or  hobbyist  very  happy.  Raffle  tickets,  which  can  be  purchased  from  church  members,  are  for  sale  at  $5  apiece  or  four  for  $20.  The  raffle  will  take  place  at  11  a.m.  on  Sunday,  Aug.  28.  (Ticketholders  need  not  be  pres- ent  to  win.)  Beyond  the  immedi- ate  winner,  there  will  be  many  more,  for  the  proceeds  will  help  preserve  a  local  treasure.

Scraps  (Continued  from  Page  1) “It  could  be  melon  rinds  or  pineapple  tops  or  pieces  of  cheese.  There’s  a  whole  variety  of  things  out  there.â€? For  a  decade  Blue  Spruce  has  put  cow  manure  and  used  cow  bedding  into  its  Cow  Power  digester,  which  collects  methane  and  burns  it  to  generate  electricity.  The  pilot  project  with  Casella  involves  collecting  food  scraps,  breaking  them  down  into  a  slurry,  and  putting  that  slurry  into  the  digester,  which  will  harvest  methane  that’s  created  as  the  organic  matter  decays.  Just  as  it  does  with  methane  from  animal  waste,  the  digester  will  convert  methane  from  the  food  waste  into  electricity.

THE  BLUE  SPRUCE  Farm  in  Bridport,  which  already  boasts  a  wind  turbine  and  methane  digester  to  turn  cow  manure  into  electricity,  is  extending  its  commitment  to  sustainability  by  using  food  scraps  in  the  digester. Courtesy  photo
incorporating  food  waste  into  their  digesters,  Blue  Spruce  built  a  receiving  area  for  food  scraps  before  Act  148  was  even  passed,  said  Audet.  The  receiving  area  is  simply  an  underground,  square  concrete  pit  that  connects  to  the  digester.  A  look  down  a  trap  door  shows  typical  used  cow  bedding-Âplus-Âmanure  digester  slurry  waiting  to  make  its  way  through  the  system. Blue  Spruce  expects  to  begin  receiving  a  steady  diet  of  food  scraps  from  Casella  in  August,  but  right  now  Casella  is  still  working  out  the  kinks  in  this  pioneering  processing  and  delivery  system. One  of  the  main  challenges  is  churning  food  scraps  into  a  clean  slurry. “We’ve  done  this  long  enough  to  know  that  as  much  as  you  train  your  customers,  somebody’s  going  to  throw  the  occasional  plastic  bag  in  there.  Or  maybe  some  forks  are  going  to  fall  off  the  plate  or  rubber  gloves,  hairnets,  things  like  that,â€?  Webb  said.  “So  what  we  want  to  be  able  to  do  is  pull  that  stuff  out  before  LW JHWV WR WKH ÂżUVW VWDJH RI WKH SURFHVV which  will  be  a  grinder.â€? Audet  said  that  quality  control  on  the  intake  side  of  the  process  is  critical,  because  Blue  Spruce  has  to  deal  with  what’s  left  over  after  the  methane  extraction  process,  including  spreading  some  residue  on  their  land. “When  they  came  to  us  and  they  asked  us  to  take  the  food  scraps  we  were  like  ‘Whoa!’  because  people  aren’t  going  to  know  how  to  throw  their  food  away  and  make  sure  there’s  not  other  junk  in  it,â€?  she  said.  (See  Blue  Spruce,  Page  17)

A  GROUP  OF  city  boosters  got  together  and  hung  some  new  banners  on  Vergennes’  Main  Street  earlier  this  month.  Shown,  from  left,  are  Jory  Raphael  (who  designed  the  banner)  with  his  son,  Tatum  Raphael,  Mayor  Bill  Benton,  Vergennes  Partnership  President  Renny  Perry,  Jeff  Fritz  (banner  sponsor),  Michelle  Tis- bert  (Banner  Committee  chair)  and  Karen  Wisell  (banner  committee  member).
New  Main  Street  banners  unveiled VERGENNES  —  What  a  difference  a  new  banner  makes!  The  Vergennes  Part- nership  designed  and  purchased  10  new  brightly  colored  ban- ners  to  be  displayed  on  Main  Street,  as  part  of  its  mission  to  enhance  the  economic  viability  and  preserve  the  beauty  and  character  of  down- town  Vergennes.  2Q 0D\ D JURXS KXQJ the  new  banners. “This  was  a  true  team  ef- fort  and  one  of  those  dream Â

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND
Addison County’s Humane Society .LWWHQV 10-Â12 weeks, males & females. Kitten season is upon us! Homeward Bound has several adorable kittens available for adoption, with more be- coming available regularly. All kittens are spayed/neutered, have seen a vet- erinarian and received all of their initial vaccinations, and are litterbox trained.
.DWKHULQH 1 year, brown tiger, spayed female. Katherine is a sweet, affectionate, playful young cat who was found wander- ing the streets in Florida with a broken leg. She has since mended, and made the long trip to Vermont to find a home amongst the Green Mountains! We don’t know what her experience is with dogs, but she is living peacefully with other cats in our cat com- munity room. Katherine is a lovely gal who would make a wonderful addition to your family!

6QRZEDOO 13 years, white & orange, neutered male. Snowball is a very sweet and affectionate cat who loves to sit on your lap for snuggles. He lived with other cats, but would prefer that his new home not have dogs or young children (he was afraid of the toddler in his previous home). If you are age 55+ you can adopt Snowball with a dona-Â tion in lieu of his adoption fee!
1HPD 12 years, Lhasa Apso/Poodle mix, spayed female. Nema may be be 12 years old but shhh- don’t tell her– she doesn’t know. This sweet girl acts half her age! She is affectionate, LOVES to give kisses, gets along well with other dogs, and seems to do well with cats, too. If you are age 55 and older you can adopt Nema with a donation in lieu of her adoption fee through our Senior-Âto-ÂSenior program!
)UDQN 3 years, Mastiff mix, neutered male. Frank is a great big (70 lbs!) happy-Âgo-Âlucky dog who just LOVES to play with toys! He is a very smart young pooch who knows commands sit and shake, and is currently working on down and stay. Frank is a medium energy dog who would enjoy hiking, long walks or romps in a fenced yard followed by plenty of snuggles on the couch. He would do well with an active family who would take him along on their adventures!
&HDVDU 1 year, Lionhead rabbit, neu- tered male. Ceasar is a friendly young rabbit who doesn’t mind handling. He is looking for a home where he can live can live inside and eat lots of carrots and lettuce!

Aurora students green up 17 miles of Trail Around Middlebury MIDDLEBURY  —  Aurora  students  on  May  7  continued  a  longstanding  school  tradition.  Students,  parents,  one  grandpar- ent,  teachers  and  alumni  gath- ered  early  in  the  morning,  with  hiking  provisions  and  Green  Up  bags.  Throughout  the  day,  the  group  hiked  the  Trail  Around  Middlebury,  filling  bags  with  trash  they  found  along  the  trail.  Director  and  co-Âfounder  Susan  Vigne  estimated  this  was  the  13th  year  of  the  tradition.  Each  year,  students  get  to  know  different  sections  of  the  trail  better,  while  discovering  hidden  dumping  sites  along  the  trail.  At  one  section,  students  found  a  half  dozen  old  tires  and  rusting  scrap  metal.  Each  year,  they  are  hosted  with  refreshments  at  the  halfway  mark  by  the  Caliandro  and  Drexel  family,  an  Aurora  alumni  family.  Prior  to  the  hike,  students  worked  to  obtain  donations  or  pledges  for  miles  walked  or  bags  of  trash  collected,  contributing  to  Aurora  School’s  scholarship  and  field  trip  funds.   Over  celebratory  ice  cream  cake  at  the  end  of  the  long  day  of  hiking  and  greening  up,  Vigne  said,  “I’m  proud  of  the  eight  students Â
AURORA  SCHOOL  STUDENTS,  trash  bags  in  hand,  gather  on  the  morning  of  May  7  before  heading  out  onto  the  Trail  Around  Middlebury  on  Green  Up  Day.  Eight  students  at  the  Middlebury  school  completed  the  entire  17-Âmile  TAM  loop.
this  year  who  completed  all  17  miles.â€?  The  students  included  third-Âgrader  Oscar,  fifth-Âgraders  Ronen  Silberman  and  Melody Â
Berenbaum,  sixth-Âgraders  Henry  After  finishing  the  entire  Swan  and  Celia  Taylor,  and  gradu- 17-Âmile  loop,  first-Âtime  finisher  ates  Celeste  Berenbaum,  Nico  Swan  proudly  exclaimed,  “I  can  Brayton  and  Aidan  Taylor.   do  it  all  again  right  now!â€?  Taylor, Â
who  has  hiked  portions  of  the  TAM  since  she  was  very  young,  finished  the  whole  hike  for  the  first  time  this  year.  When  asked  how  she  felt  physically,  she  said,  “Exhausted.â€?  When  asked  how  she  felt  mentally,  her  answer  was  “proud.â€?   Art  Berenbaum,  father  of  Melody  and  Celeste,  has  joined  Aurora’s  TAM  Trek  since  both  of  his  girls  were  very  young.  When  asked  what  he  thought  of  the  tradi- tion  and  hiking  with  his  family,  he  remarked,  “It’s  fabulous  —  a  nice  bonding  time.â€?  Aurora  teacher  Dan  Sobel  agreed  and  remembered  when  Melody  was  so  young  that  she  needed  to  be  carried  early  on  in  the  hike.  Now,  she  is  a  consis- tent  finisher  along  with  her  sister.  The  girls’  mother,  Pam,  hikes  portions  and  provides  support  at  checkpoints  along  the  way.  As  weary  but  satisfied  hikers  began  to  head  home,  Vigne  clapped  mud  from  her  well-Âworn  sneakers  and  reminisced,  “After  more  than  a  decade  of  greening  up  the  TAM,  while  it’s  sad  to  still  see  trash,  it’s  really  satisfying  to  see  my  students  do  their  part  to  help  keep  the  community  beautiful.â€?
