New  rain  garden  changes  landscape  in  many  ways By  GAEN  MURPHREE MIDDLEBURY  —  “People  keep  stopping  us  and  asking  questions,�  said  Lauren  Slayton  and  Justin  Willis,  the  two  landscapers  planting  out  the  new  rain  garden  in  the  Riverfront  Park  at  the  Mar- ble  Works  in  Middlebury  early  this  month. Straight  down  the  bank  from  the  park,  Otter  Creek  rushes  toward  Lake  Champlain.  Every  grain  of  soil  and  every  drop  of  water  that  runs  off  the  Marble  Works  parking  lots  and  rooftops  and  into  the  river  contributes  its  own  very  small  part  to  the  very  large  problem  of  Lake  Champlain’s  phospho- rus  pollution. “Basically,  during  a  rain  event,  the  entire  south  parking  lot  used  to  sheet  across  the  park  and  go  directly  into  the  river,�  said  Ryan  Emilio,  of  the  Marble  Works  Partnership.  (See  Rain  garden,  Page  14)

By  JOHN  FLOWERS MIDDLEBURY  —  Vermont  author  Howard  Frank  Mosher  draws  much  of  his  literary  inspi- ration  from  the  people  and  places  in  his  native  Northeast  Kingdom.  But  he  occasionally  strays  to  points  north  or  south  for  complementary  charac- ters,  as  he  did  with  his  latest  book,  “God’s  King- dom,�  which  includes  a  cast  member  loosely  based  on  Alexander  Twilight  of  Middlebury  Col- (See  Mosher,  Page  27)

Letters to the Editor PSB  actions  tarnishing  landscape An  open  letter  to  the  Vermont  Public  Service  Board  members:  Margaret  Cheney,  James  Volz  and  Sarah  Hofmann: How  tragic:  In  the  not  too  distant  future,  I  suspect,  more  solar  panels  than  cows  will  occupy  Vermont’s  PDJQLÂżFHQW SDVWRUDO ODQGVFDSH In  1970,  due  to  the  courageous  bipartisan  work  of  citizens,  legisla- WRUV DQG JRYHUQPHQW RIÂżFLDOV 9HU- mont’s  historic  Act  250  became  law  to  prevent  just  such  a  tragedy  as  increasing  indiscriminate  ski  area  expansion  loomed  in  a  threatening  fashion  similar  to  that  we  now  wit- ness  with  the  proliferation  of  solar  arrays.   This  valiant  effort  led  by  the  en- vironmentally  savvy  and  dedicated  Gov.  Deane  C.  Davis  “to  preserve  Vermont’s  natural  beauty  so  that  development  would  not  have  an  undue  adverse  effect  on  aesthetics,  scenic  beauty,  historic  sites  or  natu- ral  areas  and  not  imperil  necessary  wildlife  habitat  or  endangered  spe- cies,â€?  also  insured  that  a  develop- ment  must  “conform  with  any  local  or  regional  plan  or  capital  facilities  program.â€? This  followed  the  herculean  efforts  of  Ted  Riehle  of  Shelburne  and  his  devoted  band  of  energetic  campaigners  to  pressure  the  state  /HJLVODWXUH WR SDVV WKH QDWLRQÂśV ÂżUVW Billboard  Ban  law  in  1968;Íž  in  1971,  the  bottle  deposit  ruling.  In  just  a  short  few  months  you,  the  three-Âmember  Public  Service  Board,  at  the  behest  of  the  state  Legislature,  have  destroyed  the  work  of  hundreds  of  Vermonters  who  sought  to  maintain  the  natural  beauty  of  the  Green  Mountain  State  as  the  special  place:  “The  Beckon- ing  Country,â€?  where  the  natural  environment  had  earned  top  prior- ity.  “A  Place  of  Beautyâ€?  in  which  residents,  young  and  old  take  pride Â
and  tourists  seek.  Today,  a  creeping  hideousness  —  hundreds  of  thousands  of  ugly  glass  and  metal  panels  —  are  smothering  our  beautiful  state,  all  in  the  name  RI HQHUJ\ HIÂżFLHQF\ $Q LQIHFWLRXV plague  that  is  destroying  a  natural  beauty  that  cannot  be  replaced,  in  a  state  that  had  led  the  way  nationally  to  ensure  our  grandchildren  of  their  rightful  legacy. How  dare  you. How  could  you  be  so  insensi- tive  and  heartless  to  allow  this  to  happen  without  consulting  with  the  locals  before  these  eyesores  became  a  fait  accompli? That  Vermont  is  committed  to  HQHUJ\ HIÂżFLHQF\ WKHUH LV QR GRXEW —  but  never,  no  never,  in  our  wild- est  dreams  did  Vermonters  plan  to  “foul  their  own  nestâ€?  to  do  so. The  “common  goodâ€?  that  you  so  loudly  tout  is  nonsense:  So  much  of  this  environmental  exploitation  of  Vermont  only  yields  tax  credits  for  the  perpetrators  and  energy  credits  for  other  more  populated  states,  while  Vermont  endures  irreparable  damage  to  its  landscape. No  one  denies  that  we  need  to  EH PRUH HQHUJ\ HIÂżFLHQW ZH GR however,  need  to  be  more  creative  with  our  methods.  We  cannot  allow  expediency  to  overrule  common  sense  that  dictates  we  protect  Vermont  from  ruin  by  adhering  to  the  principles  of  Act  250  as  passed  by  the  Vermont  Legislature  in  1970  and  the  Billboard  Ban  in  1968. Mary  K.  Kerr Ferrisburgh Editor’s  note:  Mary  K.  Kerr  has  been  a  Vermont  resident  since  1965:  in  the  Mad  River  Valley  un- til  1986  when  she  and  her  husband  Joe  Kerr,  secretary  of  Civil  &  Mili- tary  Affairs  during  the  Gov.  Dean  C.  Davis  administration,  moved  to  Ferrisburgh.

If  you  have  something  to  say,  send  it  to:  Letters  to  the  Editor,  Addison  Independent,  58  Maple  St.,  Middlebury,  VT  05753.  Or  email  to  news@addisonindependent.com.

forward  or  honest  manner  —  if  at  all.  Storytelling,  it  seems,  has  overtaken  accuracy  as  journalists  strive  for  at- tention  in  a  crowded  digital  land- scape. We  can’t  let  FOX  News  get  us  down  —  not  when  people  like  Da- YLG %URFN KDYH EHHQ ÂżJKWLQJ WKLV misinformation  for  years.  Moreover,  despondence  is  only  going  to  hurt  the  progressive  agenda  in  the  2016  race.  What  will  help  is  an  increasing  number  of  Aggressive  Progressives  —  the  antidote  to  Lazy  Liberals  —  ready  to  meet  media  distortion  head- on,  do  their  own  research  and  counter  false  claims.  Aggressive  Progressives  do  not  base  their  view  of  Hillary’s  “unlaw- fulâ€?  email  practices  on  a  FOX  News  (or  even  New  York  Times)  report;Íž  instead,  they  listen  to  and  share  the  conclusions  reached  by  the  Justice  Department.  Aggressive  Progres- sives  do  not  get  riled  up  by  Carly  Fiorina’s  fervent  anti-ÂPlanned  Par- enthood  rhetoric  used  in  reference  to  a  graphic  video;Íž  instead,  they  recog- nize  that  the  video  was  intentionally  and  misleadingly  edited  to  smear  a  good  organization.  And  Aggressive  Progressives  don’t  just  correct  the  record,  they  take  one  step  further:  They  go  on  the  offensive.  Armed  with  the  facts,  Aggressive  Progressives  counter  the  false  and  bigoted  right-Âwing  dis- course  that  has  come  to  pollute  even  the  most  reputable  mainstream  me- dia  outlets.  Simply  put,  Lazy  Liberals  will  lose  in  the  2016  election,  but  Aggressive  Progressives  might  stand  a  chance.

A  BACKHOE  BEGINS  to  clear  soil  for  the  new  rain  garden  at  the  Marble  Works  park  overlooking  Otter  Creek  in  Middlebury  recently.  Rain  gardens  are  designed  to  hold  stormwater  so  that  it  can  soak  into  the  ground,  rather  than  carry  pollutants  into  waterways.

Gardens change the face of a community By  GAEN  MURPHREE MIDDLEBURY  —  Rain  gardens  are  designed  to  be  both  attractive  and  functional,  to  enhance  a  property  and  make  people  happy  while  they  do  the  dirty  work  of  trapping  and  ¿OWHULQJ VWRUPZDWHU WKXV NHHSLQJ pollutants  out  of  the  lake,  explained  LandWorks  landscape  architect  Pat-Â
rick  Olstad,  who  designed  the  2013  rain  garden  at  the  Marble  Works. Olstad’s  original  Marble  Works  rain  garden  is  based  around  native  plants  —  native  iris,  red  twig  dog- wood,  serviceberry,  Joe  Pye  weed,  and  others  —  and  is  designed  to  look  like  a  sort  of  naturalized  wet  meadow,  albeit  one  that’s  laid  out  in Â
gorgeous  undulations.  At  the  deepest  spot  are  plants  that  like  to  stand  in  water;͞  at  the  higher  edges  are  plants  that  like  drier  feet.  Olstad  designed  the  garden  around  snaking  drifts  of  plants,  with  attention  to  plants  that  would  look  good  across  seasons.  Even  now,  with  the  bushes  denud- (See  Plants,  Page  15)
Rain  garden  (Continued  from  Page  1) This  one  small  spot  shows  in  min- iature  why  Lake  Champlain  cleanup  requires  all  hands  on  deck  for  all  Vermonters  and  how  simple  looking  things  like  rain  gardens  can  be  impor- tant  parts  of  the  solution.  Emilio  said  that  only  about  half  to  a  third  of  the  runoff  from  the  south  lot  drains  into  the  existing  rain  garden.  So  the  Marble  Works  Partnership  wanted  to  create  a  new  rain  garden  to  catch  the  rest.  Last  year  they  rebuilt  the  curb  along  the  south  end  of  the  south  park- ing  lot  so  that  it  would  better  funnel  stormwater  into  the  rain  gardens  area.  At  the  end  of  October  and  beginning  of  November,  they  installed  the  new  garden  itself. “We’re  responsible  for  the  environ- ment  just  as  well  as  everybody  else  is,  and  that’s  a  big  parking  lot,â€?  said  Emilio.  “We’re  just  trying  to  do  our  part.â€? A  rain  garden  is  a  depression  —  this  one  was  clawed  out  by  a  small  EDFNKRH ² SODQWHG WR FDWFK DQG ÂżOWHU VWRUPZDWHU ,Q WKH ÂżUVW UDLQ JDU- den  was  installed  at  the  Marble  Works  in  a  partnership  amongst  the  Marble  Works  Partnership,  the  town  of  Mid- dlebury,  the  Otter  Creek  Natural  Re- sources  Conservation  District  and  the  Let  It  Rain  program,  with  some  public  donations.  It  was  designed  by  Land- Works  landscape  architects,  which  KDV RIÂżFHV LQ WKH 0DUEOH :RUNV DQG installed  by  volunteers.  The  new  rain  garden  is  being  in- stalled  by  the  Marble  Works  Partner- ship  alone.  Slayton  and  Willis,  the  duo  hired  to  do  the  actual  planting, Â
are  tweaking  the  original  LandWorks  planting  list,  adding  some  of  their  own  favorites,  along  with  plants  suggested  by  Greenhaven  Gardens  and  Nursery. Like  the  Marble  Works  complex,  many  of  the  towns  throughout  Ad- dison  County  are  built  along  rivers,  which  rush  down  off  the  western  slope  of  the  Green  Mountains.  Steepness  and  proximity  combine  to  rush  pol- lutants  and  eroded  soil  particles,  with  phosphorus  ions  attached,  directly  into  rivers  and  on  into  the  lake,  explained  Kevin  Behm,  assistant  director  of  the  Addison  County  Regional  Planning  Commission.  In  Addison  County,  certainly,  runoff  from  towns  and  other  developed  areas  doesn’t  usually  have  far  to  go  to  meet  a  conduit  to  the  lake. Not  only  that  but  the  rugged  Green  0RXQWDLQV WKDW GHÂżQH VR PXFK RI WKH state  also  mean  that  Lake  Champlain  has  what  experts  call  a  high  “water- shed  ratioâ€?  of  18-Âto-Â1.  According  to  the  Lake  Champlain  Basin  Program’s  “State  of  the  Lakeâ€?  report,  “For  every  square  mile  of  lake  area,  there  are  18  square  miles  of  land  area  in  the  water- shed  that  drain  into  the  lake.â€?  By  way  of  comparison,  the  “watershed  ratioâ€?  for  the  Great  Lakes  ranges  from  just  1.5  to  1  to  3.4  to  1.  That  means,  as  the  report  further  explains,  that  “acre  for  acre,  the  watersheds  of  those  lakes  have  a  much  smaller  impact  on  their  water  quality.â€?  So  in  Vermont  every  square  mile  that  drains  into  the  lake  has  an  impact  on  the  lake,  and  remediation  of  drain- age  problems  from  every  square  mile  also  has  a  great  impact.
“This  is  a  long-Âterm  problem,  a  long-Âterm  solution,â€?  said  Jim  Pease,  a  specialist  in  the  development  of  mu- nicipal  stormwater  management  pro- grams  for  the  state’s  Department  of  Environmental  Conservation.  INDIVIDUAL   ACTION Pease  stresses  that  thinking  about  stormwater  runoff  isn’t  just  something  that  towns  need  to  do;Íž  it’s  the  respon- sibility  of  every  Vermonter  in  the  Lake  Champlain  watershed.  Afterall,  the  EPA  has  ordered  Vermont  to  reduce  phosphorus  pollution  from  streets,  roofs  and  back  roads  by  22.2  percent  in  the  Otter  Creek  wateshed. According  to  Pease,  even  simple  things  like  rain  barrels  or  channeling  your  driveway  or  gutter  runoff  into  your  own  lawn  or  garden  or  even  tak- ing  your  gutters  down  entirely  can  make  a  big  difference. “People  make  fun  of  rain  barrels  because  they  only  hold,  what,  55  gal- lons,â€?  said  Pease.  “But  if  you  multiply  that  out  by  thousands  it  would  be  a  substantial  amount  of  waterâ€?  kept  out  of  the  lake. “If  it’s  a  22  percent  reduction,  that’s  a  lot  of  developed  land  that  has  to  be  better  at  managing  its  runoff,â€?  Pease  FRQWLQXHG Âł,WÂśV D YHU\ GLIÂżFXOW SURE- lem  because  you’re  dealing  with  thou- sands  of  properties  and  many,  many  sources  of  pollution.  It’s  not  like  the  old  problem  of,  well,  we  have  a  fac- tory  or  a  pipe  or  a  wastewater  plant  or  whatever  it  is,  and  we  just  have  to  get  WKDW Âż[HG :HÂśYH JRW WR ÂżQG D 9HUPRQW solution.â€?

40  years  ago,  and  Mosher  was  serv- ing  as  a  social  worker,  driving  a  bus  load  of  youths  through  the  Pulp  Mill  Bridge  when  the  vehicle  got  stuck.  A  Middlebury  constable  showed  up  and  drew  a  chant  of  “Throw  the  cop  in  the  riverâ€?  from  the  young  passen- gers,  to  Mosher’s  horror. Mosher  still  wonders  to  this  day  how  much  damage  the  bus  did  to  the  Pulp  Mill  Bridge,  which  of  course  has  been  rehabbed  several  times  since  that  incident. “God’s  Kingdomâ€?  also  features  stories  dealing  with  racism,  hunt- ing,  murder  and  romance  while  Kinneson  comes  of  age  in  rustic,  agricultural  northern  Vermont.  The  majority  of  those  stories  are  rooted  in  the  anecdotes  that  Mosher  has  voraciously  devoured  during  his  half-Âcentury  of  residency  in  the  1RUWKHDVW .LQJGRP SULPDULO\ LQ Irasburg.  He  has  collected  these  stories  talking  to  local  farmers,  teachers,  kids,  clergy  and  public  of- ¿FLDOV DPRQJ RWKHUV Book  fodder  has  not  been  limited  WR 1RUWKHDVW .LQJGRP IRONV DQG KLV fertile  imagination.  Mosher  grew  XS LQ XSVWDWH 1HZ <RUN DQG VSHQW a  lot  of  his  youth  in  the  company  of  his  grandparents,  who  operated Â
a  dairy  farm  around  25  miles  north  of  Syracuse.  He  recalled  how  his  grandparents  lived  in  a  decrep- it,  26-Âroom  farmhouse  that  they  shared  with  a  bevy  of  relatives  and  the  occasional  hobo  with  no  other  place  to  live. “We  had  no  central  heat,  no  elec- tricity  and  no  plumbing,  but  we  sure  had  stories,â€?  Mosher  said  with  a  smile. The  material  mushroomed  when  Mosher  and  his  wife,  Phillis,  moved  to  the  Kingdom  in  1964. “I  stumbled  onto  a  goldmine  of  stories  that  no  one  had  heard  be- fore,  and  I’ve  been  telling  them  ever  since,â€?  Mosher  said. The  ubiquitous  author  believes  he  still  has  two  or  three  books  in  him.  One  of  them,  he  said,  will  be  a  more  complete  history  of  Pliny  Templeton.  Another  will  explore,  more  deeply,  the  roots  of  the  Kin- neson  family. “It  was  a  very  fun  book  to  write,â€?  Mosher  said  of  “God’s  Kingdom.â€? Mosher  is  scheduled  to  talk  about  his  new  book  on  Tuesday,  Nov.  17,  from  7  to  9  p.m.,  at  the  Ilsley  Public  Library  in  Middlebury.

Pet Pages Keep  your  chickens  healthy  and  laying  all  through  the  winter (BPT)  —  When  winter  ap- proaches,  you  probably  take  steps  to  prepare  your  home  —  insulating  water  pipes,  sealing  windows  and  doors,  or  cover- ing  and  storing  outdoor  furni- ture.  If  you’ve  also  been  fol- lowing  the  backyard  chicken  trend  and  enjoying  fresh  eggs  all  summer  long,  you’ll  want  to  take  steps  to  care  for  your  À RFN ZKHQ WKH ZHDWKHU FRROV And  if  you’ve  been  consider- ing  getting  some  chickens,  but  think  you  have  to  put  it  off  un- til  spring,  think  again.  You  can  VWLOO VWDUW D Ă€ RFN RU NHHS DQ H[ isting  one  thriving,  and  laying,  throughout  winter. .HHSLQJ D Ă€ RFN RI FKLFNHQV has  grown  rapidly  in  popular- ity  over  the  last  several  years.  Nearly  RQH LQ Âż YH SHRSOH ZRXOG EH PRUH OLNH ly  to  raise  chickens  if  they  knew  more  about  it,  according  to  a  2015  national  survey  conducted  by  Tractor  Supply  Company.  Interest  with  parents  is  even  higher,  as  27  percent  would  consider  raising  chickens  with  their  families  if  they  had  more  information  on  the  hobby. Raising  chickens  has  many  advan- tages,  including  a  steady  supply  of  fresh,  nutritious  eggs,  greater  control  over  what  your  family  eats,  compan- ionship  from  the  birds  themselves,  and  an  opportunity  to  teach  children  how  to  care  for  animals  and  the  earth. To  help  distribute  this  information,  FKLFNHQ H[SHUWV DW 7UDFWRU 6XSSO\ &R RIIHU VRPH DGYLFH IRU NHHSLQJ D Ă€ RFN healthy  and  producing  through  winter  months.  Anyone  raising  chickens  this  winter  should  focus  on  four  areas  of  care: KEEP  COOPS  WARM  AND  DRY Chickens  are  fairly  resilient  and  can  tolerate  some  very  low  temperatures,  especially  when  they  huddle  together  for  warmth.  Helping  them  stay  warm  and  dry  through  winter  means  they’ll  be  safer  and  happier,  which  means  they’ll  be  more  inclined  to  keep  laying  eggs.  The  best  way  to  keep  chickens  warm  in  winter  is  to  keep  their  coop  dry  and  comfortable.  Wet  living  con- ditions  can  lead  to  disease  and  death  within  days.  You  can  use  tarps  to  help  keep  water  and  dampness  out  of  your  coop. The  general  rule  is  that  coops  need  to  be  slightly  above  freezing  to  keep  chickens  happy.  Keeping  your  coop  above  35  degrees  will  protect  your  chickens  from  cold  weather  and  keep  their  drinking  water  from  freezing.  Only  if  the  temperature  falls  below  35  degrees  should  you  consider  purchas- ing  a  heater  or  heat  producing  light  to  SURYLGH H[WUD ZDUPWK AIRFLOW  IS  KEY Ensuring  adequate  ventilation  is  a  critical  component  of  cold  weather Â
chicken  care.  Overly  warm  coops  can  not  only  interfere  with  chickens’  tol- erance  for  cold  weather,  but  can  also  lead  to  a  buildup  of  humidity,  which  creates  an  environment  for  harm- ful  mold  to  grow.  Cleaning  the  coop  regularly  helps  combat  mold,  while  HQFRXUDJLQJ DLUĂ€ RZ ZLWK VFUHHQV placed  on  coop  windows  can  facilitate  DLUĂ€ RZ GXULQJ WKH GD\ %XW UHPHPEHU to  close  those  windows  at  night  when  temperatures  fall. PROVIDE  LOTS  OF  LIGHT Some  chicken  breeds,  such  as  the  Brahma  or  Chantecler,  are  natural  win- ter  egg  layers.  However,  once  fall  molt  is  over,  many  birds  won’t  start  natu- rally  laying  until  January  or  February,  unless  light  is  added  to  the  coop.  As  a  result,  supplemental  lighting  is  vital  to  keeping  your  hens  laying.  Use  multiple  lights  to  achieve  an  even  distribution  of  light  throughout  the  year.  Incandescent  lights  are  generally  best.  To  encour- age  chickens  to  lay,  set  your  light  to  a Â
timer  that  goes  on  one  hour  before  sunrise  and  turns  off  one  hour  after  sunset.  Gen- erally,  a  40-Âwatt  incandes- FHQW EXOE ZLWK D UHĂ€ HFWRU positioned  seven  feet  above  the  ground  will  light  about  200  square  feet.  DIET  IS  KEY  3URYLGLQJ \RXU Ă€ RFN with  an  adequate  diet  will  EHQHÂż W HJJ IHUWLOLW\ RQFH breeding  season  begins  in  the  spring.  That  being  said,  your  chickens’  dietary  needs  will  change  during  fall  and  winter.  In  autumn,  begin  feeding  them  a  high- density,  vitamin-Ârich  feed.  The  additional  vitamins  will  help  provide  the  nutri- ents  birds  need  in  order  to  cope  with  colder  temperatures.  Blends  made  with  ZKROH JUDLQ DQG Ă€ D[VHHG DUH GHVLJQHG to  provide  enhanced  nutrients  in  your  À RFNÂśV HJJV Water  is  the  single  most  important  IHHGLQJ DVSHFW IRU D Ă€ RFN ,I HQRXJK fresh  water  is  not  available,  your  chick- ens  won’t  eat,  which  will  result  in  loss  of  egg  production.  You  can  also  add  a  water-Âsoluble  multivitamin  to  their  wa- ter  to  boost  egg  fertility.  Of  course,  wa- ter  can  freeze  during  winter,  so  change  your  chickens’  water  often  and  break  through  any  ice  that  forms.  If  you’re  having  trouble  keeping  water  liquid  in  the  cold,  consider  purchasing  a  heated  bucket  or  water  feeder. As  always,  when  working  in  the  coop  and  handling  birds,  be  sure  to  remember  safe  handling  practices  to  prevent  the  spread  of  disease,  such  as  washing  your  hands  with  soap  and  wa- ter  and  cleaning  the  tools  used  to  care  for  your  birds.

REAL ESTATE EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY
PRESIDENT  THEODORE  ROOSEVELT,  portrayed  by  Joe  Wiegand,  on  Nov.  4  paid  a  visit  to  The  Resi- dence  at  Otter  Creek  where  he  enjoyed  breakfast  and  shared  highlights  of  his  life  —  literally  making  his- tory  come  alive  for  70  members  and  friends  of  the  Middlebury  Rotary  Club.
Wiegand  brings  Roosevelt  to  life MIDDLEBURY  —  Theodore  Roosevelt,  the  26th  president  of  the  United  States,  visited  the  Mid- dlebury  Rotary  Club  at  its  weekly  meeting  on  Wednesday,  Nov.  4.  The  Residences  at  Otter  Creek  served  as  the  host  for  the  meeting. Well,  perhaps  it  was  not  the  ac- tual  TR,  but  a  darn  good  imitation  thereof.  Joe  Wiegand,  the  noted  re- prisor  of  Roosevelt,  gave  a  power- ful  performance  as  the  president  as  he  has  done  for  many  years  at  such  venues  as  the  White  House,  where  he  performed  for  President  George  W.  Bush;Íž  the  Renwick  Gallery  of  the  Smithsonian;Íž  and  the  American  Museum  of  Natural  History. Thoroughly  in  character  as  TR,  Wiegand  kept  the  audience  en- thralled  as  he  recounted  his  career  from  sickly  and  asthmatic  boy  in  New  York  City,  to  rancher  in  the  Dakota  Territory,  and  eventually, Â
to  the  presidency  of  the  United  States,  all  by  the  age  of  42.  As  an  interesting  fact,  TR  noted  that  he  had  many  connections  to  Vermont  and  the  local  area,  most  notably  being  in  Isle  La  Motte,  when  he  got  the  news  that  his  predecessor,  William  McKinley,  had  been  shot  in  Buffalo,  N.Y. As  TR,  Wiegand  described  the  state  of  the  nation  during  his  presi- dency  and  recalled  his  efforts  as  a  Trust  Buster  and  the  inspiration  for  the  National  Park  System.  As  President,  Roosevelt  led  the  way  LQWR WKH WK FHQWXU\ LQĂ€XHQFLQJ events  down  to  the  current  era. All  in  all,  Wiegand  did  a  magnif- icent  job  in  bringing  to  life  a  vital  and  fascinating  time  in  our  nation’s  history.  At  the  end  of  his  program,  Wiegand  broke  character  for  the  ¿UVW WLPH DQG DV D IHOORZ 5RWDULDQ from  Encinitas,  Calif.,  presented Â
WKH ÀDJ RI WKDW FOXE WR *HRII &RQ- rad,  the  president  of  the  Middle- bury  club,  and  offered  his  thoughts  on  the  contributions  of  Rotary  to  the  betterment  of  the  world,  espe- cially  through  the  ongoing  effort  to  end  polio. Wiegand’s  talk  was  supported  in  part  by  the  Theodore  Roos- evelt  Medora  Foundation,  The  Residence  at  Otter  Creek,  and  Middlebury  Rotary.  The  Middle- bury  Rotary  club  meets  each  Wednesday  at  Rosie’s  Restaurant  in  Middlebury  and  welcomes  new  members.  If  interested  in  learn- ing  more  about  Rotary,  contact  Middlebury  Rotary  Club’s  mem- bership  chair,  Scott  Needham  at  middleburyrotary@gmail.com  or  like  us  on  Facebook. Editor’s  note:  This  article  was  submitted  by  Middlebury  Rotarian  Liam  English.
Learn  about  Vt.’s  working  forests  at  Thursdays  panel MIDDLEBURY  —  “Vermont’s  Working  Forests:  Challenges  and  Opportunitiesâ€?  will  be  the  topic  of  a  panel  discussion  at  the  Vermont  Folklife  Center  in  Middlebury  on  Thursday,  Nov.  19,  from  5:30-Â7  p.m. The  discussion  complements  the  documentary,  “Portrait  of  a  Forest:  Men  and  Machine,â€?  which  is  now  on  exhibit  at  the  center.  The  ex- hibit,  which  combines  70  contem- porary  and  historical  photographs  with  commentary  by  the  logging  and  forest  products  community,  will  run  through  Jan.  9. Panelists  include  Michael  Sny- der,  commissioner  of  the  Vermont  Department  of  Forests,  Parks  and  Recreation;Íž  Paul  Costello,  execu- tive  director  of  the  Vermont  Coun- cil  on  Rural  Development;Íž  Jamey  Fidel,  general  counsel  and  director Â
of  the  forest  and  wildlife  program  at  the  Vermont  Natural  Resources  Council;Íž  David  Brynn,  founder  of  Vermont  Family  Forests;Íž  and  Tom  Yager,  head  forester  at  A.  Johnson  Co.  in  Bristol,  one  of  the  state’s  largest  mills. “This  panel  brings  together  some  of  Vermont’s  most  thoughtful  ob- servers  on  the  economic,  social  and  environmental  role  of  the  state’s  working  forests,â€?  said  Gregory  Sharrow,  co-Âdirector  of  the  VFC. “Vermont  is  enviably  blessed  with  a  high-Âvalue  hardwood  for- est,  but  we  also  face  a  daunting  list  of  challenges  from  forest  frag- mentation  to  loss  of  infrastructure  to  global  competition,â€?  Sharrow  added. “Forests,  from  recreational  use  to  logging,  are  a  billion-Âdollar- plus  industry  and  the  state’s  largest Â
manufacturing  employer,â€?  George  Bellerose,  the  exhibit  photo-Âdoc- umentarian,  noted.  “Forestry  has  VKDSHG 9HUPRQW VLQFH VHWWOHUV ÂżUVW cleared  the  land.  How  Vermont  will  look  in  the  future  will  continue  to  be  shaped  by  those  who  work  the  land.â€?  The  discussion  is  free  and  open  to  the  public.  Middlebury  Commu- nity  Television  will  tape  the  pro- ceeding  and  make  it  available  to  or- ganizations  interested  in  the  future  of  Vermont’s  forests. The  discussion  will  be  held  at  the  folklife  center  headquarters  at  88  Main  St.  The  exhibit  and  discussion  space  are  ADA  accessible.  Gallery  hours  are  10  a.m.  to  5  p.m.,  Tues- day  through  Saturday.  For  more  information  contact  Bob  Hooker  at  (802)  388-Â4964  or  bhooker@ver- montfolklifecenter.org.
