Geology and the birth of Cheshire New time
set for annual ceremony
By Joy VanderLek The Cheshire Citizen
Part one of a two-part series about the history of the town. Even as a small child, Laurie Sanders loved to endlessly explore the wetlands near her family’s Mountain Road home. All that exploring played a pivotal role in Sanders’ connection to the environment and her career. “The natural world here [Cheshire] formed who I am, said Sanders, Cheshire’s first environmental planner. Sanders is now co-director of Historic Northhampton, a museum and education center in Massachusetts. Sanders returned to Cheshire’s First Congregational Church, Oct. 24, to give a presentation called “The Natural and Cultural History of Cheshire: Viewed Through an Ecological Lens.” Delving into the interaction between people and the environment — how one affects the other — became amazingly interesting to her, Sanders said. “Why is Cheshire so different from surrounding towns?” Sanders asked, rhetorically. “To understand you first need to understand the bedrock geol-
This year, the annual Veterans Day ceremony honoring veterans will take place at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 11 inside the First Congregational Church (on Church Drive). This event is co-sponsored by Cheshire Veterans Council and the Town of Cheshire.

Escapee said he was in costume By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff
MERIDEN — Still in his prison uniform, an escaped Cheshire Correctional Institution inmate convinced a passerby to give him a ride and a change of clothes Halloween night by telling him he had been at a costume party, court documents state. Luis Clarke, 25, of Wallingford, was charged with first-degree escape and third-degree larceny after his arrest Wednesday night, Oct. 31, in Meriden. He was arraigned Thursday, Nov. 1. According to a Department of Correc-
tions report, Clarke broke out of prison on Oct. 31, stole a pizza delivery driver’s car from Maplecroft Plaza and called his former girlfriend with a stolen cell phone. “Clarke stated he recently became depressed after breaking up with his girlfriend, who is also the mother of his child. (She) ended their relationship and stopped accepting his calls from prison,” the report said. During the nov. 1 arraignment, the girlfriend and child waited for Clarke’s appearance in the courtroom and left immediately afterward in tears. Clarke frequently glanced in her
direction while the proceedings took place. Clarke appeared shackled and in prison clothes before Judge Gerald Harmon, who found probable cause for the charges. Clarke is scheduled to appear in court again on Nov. 30. Clarke was scheduled for release on Dec. 17, 2019. The DOC report said during a recreation time Wednesday evening, Oct. 31, Clarke stayed outside when inmates were called in. Other inmates in the low level security area who saw what he was doing See Escapee, A16
Because Veterans Day falls on a Sunday this year, the Cheshire Veterans Council decided to change the traditional 11 a.m. ceremony so it would not conflict with Sunday morning worship services. Cheshire Veterans Council consists of the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Army Air Force Roundtable of Connecticut and Disabled American Veterans. Among the speakers are Julie Anderson, head of Cheshire Academy, who will speak about Eri Woodbury. Woodbury received the Medal of Honor for his combat action in the Civil War and later became headmaster of the academy. Woodbury is one of Cheshire’s two residents who were awarded the Medal of Honor; the other is Marine Corps Col. Harvey C. Barnum, who earned his medal for combat action in Vietnam. Route 10 through Cheshire, from the Medal of Honor Plaza to the police department, is named Medal of See Ceremony, A14

5 things to know about fall hiking NET hiking series
MERIDEN — As the leaves fall and temperatures cool, hiking local trails bcomes a popular pastime for outdoor enthusiasts. Here are five things to know about fall hikes from city resident and Connecticut Forest and Park Association communications director BEA Martin Gosselin. UT IFU

Anywhere along the trap rock ridge is recommended for viewing foliage. Gosselin suggests visiting Castle Craig and East Peak, as well as Chauncey Peak in Giuffrida Park by way of the Mattabesett Trail.
A total of nine hikes were scheduled this season on the New England Trail (NET), part of the National Park System. The trail is about 271 miles and runs from Long Island Sound in Guilford up to the Massachusetts-New Hampshire border.
map can also be helpful along with a compass. Safety tips While there are fewer sightings of wildlife during the colder months, Gosselin still warns hikers to be aware of their surroundings.
Earlier hikes included the Metacomet trail in Plainville, Mount Higby in Middletown and the new Mount Pisgah trail in Durham. Gosselin said more than 100 people have participated in this fall’s hiking series.
“You do have to be cautious on some of the trails at this time of year because of hunting,” Gosselin said.

A major upset, in three movements By Ryan Conchado Special to the Record-Journal
GUILFORD — The Guilford field hockey team stunned undefeated and No. 1-seeded Cheshire in the Saturday’s SCC Tournament championship game, wresting away a crown that seemed destined to be worn by the Rams. Against a team that had allowed just one goal all season, Guilford scored three and won going away, 3-1. “We definitely didn’t play our best,” said Cheshire coach Eileen Wildermann. “There were some disciplinary things that we weren’t getting done, like winning 50-50 balls and worrying about external
things that we can’t control. We had distractions and those things can’t get in the way of a play.
With less than two minutes and down two goals, for the first time this season, defeat was inevitable for the Rams.
”Plus, Guilford played phenomenally.”
Cheshire goalie Lexie Hemstock, who has 17 shutouts on the season, was very busy throughout the game with 14 saves. One came on a breakaway.
Guilford play was highly aggressive throughout the first half. The Indians controlled the ball for a large portion of the half, kept the pressure on the Rams’ defense and forced eight penalty corners. With 15:24 to go in the first half, Guilford struck first.

“It’s hard,” said Wildermann. “The year we won the state championship we had one loss. One loss is such a motivator, so I think while you don’t want it to happen in the SCC championship, that’s always motivation. “There are no undefeated teams in the state anymore, and that’s good. Everyone knows what is at stake and that gave us some definite motivation.”

Hand halts Rams’ 2-game streak by Hand led to a punt, setting Cheshire up at the Tiger 35-yard line.
By Peter Dewey Special to the Record-Journal
After a Hand personal foul, Griffin found Tim Krutz for a 20-yard touchdown pass, cutting the lead to 49-14 with just under a minute to play in the third quarter.
CHESHIRE — The Cheshire football team was unable to upset or even slow down defending Class L state champion Daniel Hand on Friday night, losing 49-14 at Alumni Field.
After winning the toss and electing to defer, the Rams defense came up with its biggest play of the day. On a fourth-and-6 from the Cheshire 45, Hand muffed an exchange between quarterback Phoenix Billings and running back Colin McCabe. Cheshire recovered at midfield. However, on a third-andlong, Cheshire quarterback Colby Griffin was intercepted by Julian Banerji, who returned it inside Rams territory. Billings went to work quickly, finding Christopher Bartosic for a 31-yard completion down the sideline to put Hand at the Cheshire 15. Billings finished off the drive with a swing pass to McCabe for a seven-yard score. Cheshire returned the kick-
off to its own 40-yard line, but was unable to pick up a first down for the second consecutive drive. Hand, meanwhile, added to its lead on the ensuing drive. McCabe took a backward swing pass for 15 yards into Cheshire territory. Billings then found Ian Butler for 15 yards before running it in himself for a 16-yard score to put Hand up 15-0. Cheshire’s offensive struggles continued on its next drive. The Rams got two runs from Jake McAlinden to set up a third-and-2, but a false start and then a dropped pass led to another Jotham Casey punt. McCabe continued his big day, this time sprinting down the left sideline for a 50-yard touchdown. A failed two-point attempt kept the score at 21-0 with 10:23 left in the half. Cheshire picked up its inaugural first down with 10 minutes to go in the first half on a quarterback keeper by Griffin. However, the Rams were unable to get much going after that, giving Hand the ball back with 8:54 remaining in the first half. Billings continued to light it up, rushing for 42 yards deep into Cheshire territory on a read-option, then hit Butler with a touchdown pass from 24 yards out. Butler did damage on the defensive end as well. He
picked off Griffin and took it all the way to the house, putting Hand up 35-0 with 5:55 remaining in the first half. Hand added to the lead with a pair of rushing touchdowns before halftime — Jesse Lutz from 15 yards and McCabe from 41 — to take a commanding 49-0 lead.
Cheshire got on the board in the second half behind running back Ryan Mancl. The sophomore took a handoff 19 yards for a score after being set up by a couple completions from Griffin. “We’ve been talking about it all year: These kids don’t quit,” Drust said. “They believe in each other.” A couple of fumbled snaps
“They show up every day and keep working hard and that’s all you can ask for as a coach. You just want guys who genuinely care about each other and genuinely care about the program.”

“[Daniel Hand] is a good football team,” Cheshire head coach Don Drust said. “They’re a team that you can’t dig a hole against. You start to make mistakes and they cause it to spiral into bigger mistakes and you can’t do that. We got beat.”

“Obviously, the outcomes haven’t been exactly the way we wanted them, but I give [our team] a lot of credit,” Drust said. “Never do they once get down on each other, never once do they get down on themselves.

Cheshire was unable to get much going on offense and, after an initial stop on Hand’s opening drive, allowed seven consecutive scores and trailed 49-0 at the half.
Christian Russo later set up the Rams inside the Tiger 20 with a 41-yard run, but Hand picked up a trio of sacks to end the threat.

plates created rift valleys and formed Cheshire’s geological history and the Connecticut River Valley, said Sanders. Sandstone and traprock ridges make up the Connecticut River Valley. Magma filled in the sills and cracks. “The sills become the Hanging Hills of Meriden and the west ridge in Cheshire,” Sanders said.
brickyards were located there. Some ponds left sandier soils. “That’s a great place to put a cemetery, and that’ s exactly where Cheshire Street cemetery is,” said Sanders. In areas of thin glacial till, there are glacial erratic boulders. You can see them on Coleman Road and at Doolittle School. These chunks of basalt were carried off the Hanging Hills of Meriden,” she said.
Constructed on “a high hill” the First Congregational Church was centrally located and built on land donated by the minister, said Sanders. This was years after the town’s first church was built on Lanyon Street, in 1723. The land to create Hillside Cemetery was also donated. It was glacial till, but located close to the church.
One mill, however, known for a time as Rag Hollow, was settled by the Mix brothers. They produced spoons and invented a buffer using rags, hence the name. The area surrounding the reservoir “became sort of its own little village, it was so successful,” said Sanders.

pretty horrible to live in. This spurs the social reform and recreation movement, and the word vacation surfaces in the American vocabulary. Frederick Law Olmsted often visits his uncle’s house in Brooksvale, Cheshire. As an adult, he becomes a leader in landscape architecture and a voice for escaping to the healthy countryside. Sanders shows a picture of Prospect Park in Brooklyn, and then compares that picture to one of Brooksvale farm vista. The resemblance is uncanny. Cheshire becomes a summer getaway destination. People go to their summer homes, or stay at the taverns, or the popular Wallace Hotel, which was open until the 1890s. What can you do in Cheshire, she asked. You can fish or swim. You can go to Roaring Brook waterfall. You go to farmer Cook’s house and go through the forest to see the falls. In 1899, Nathaniel Parker Willis, a high-paid magazine writer at the time, wrote a poem about Roaring Brook in Cheshire.

phone in the car, which Clarke had found and used to call his girlfriend. The inmate also used the phone to contact friends and relatives through Facebook. They advised him to surrender, according to the report. An off-duty FBI agent saw Clarke on Route 68 and after hearing news reports of the escape reported it to police. After getting lost and leaving the car at Cheshire Academy, Clarke was approached by a man who the DOC report doesn’t identify. Clarke, bloody from climbing through the prison’s razor wire, told the man he was dressed as a prison inmate for a Halloween party and had gotten into a fight. He asked the man for a ride to Bristol.
The man said he’d take him to Meriden and offered him a change of clothes. The man also called an Uber for Clarke. Police had been using the stolen cell phone to track Clarke, according to the DOC report. DOC fugitive recovery officers and other police caught Clarke as he was getting into his ride near the Stop & Shop in Meriden. Clarke is classified as a low risk offender and was sentenced to 18 months at CCI for a probation violation. On Oct. 31, the Department of Justice said Clarke would be internally reviewed for placement on high security status. “I would like to thank our law enforcement partners

and commend the swift response from our fugitive unit that apprehended Clarke in less than three hours,” DOJ Commissioner Scott Semple said.

Wilcox Tech earned a share of the Connecticut Technical Conference boys soccer championship last week and senior Kelvin Cortez, as he has been throughout his career, was the driving force. The Indians scored 10 goals in the CTC tournament; Cortez was in on seven of them. He had a hat trick and two assists in the quarterfinals vs. Cheney Tech, then scored one goal in both the semifinals vs. Platt Tech and finals vs. Bullard Havens.
Cheshire’s rally from 2-0 down against Amity on Saturday night capped a second straight run to the SCC volleyball championship for the Rams, and Julia Bartiet was one of their clutch performers. The junior middle blocker piled up 11 kills, four blocks and three aces in the championship match against the Spartans. Bartiet also had six kills and six digs in the semifinals vs. Guilford after knocking down nine kills in the quarterfinals vs. Lyman Hall.

The area’s top cross country runner in 2018? Brendan Mellitt of Cheshire. The junior was the only area runner to qualify for the State Open, where he matched the 16:36 he’d logged in finishing eighth in the Class L meet. In placing 15th at the State Open, Mellitt qualified for this Saturday’s New England Championship in Manchester, N.H. Mellitt also made All-Conference First Team placing seventh in 16:26 at the SCC championship meet.
Only a sophomore, Meghan Hammarlund has already built a considerable resume in the Southington swimming program. She added to it last week at the CCC West Championships at Cornerstone Aquatics in West Hartford. Hammarlund claimed the 100-yard backstroke crown and broke her own school record in the process with a time of 1:00.81. Hammarlund was also part of the first-place 200 medley relay and finished second in the butterfly.
BEN PIERCE
JULIA PODCHAISKI
Ben Pierce made sure the Maloney soccer team would go into the Class L state tournament riding high. The senior scored four goals in the 5-1 rivalry win over Platt on Oct. 29. The gave Pierce, Maloney’s leading scorer as a junior and sophomore, eight goals and five assists on the season. In the tournament, Pierce and the Spartans are looking to follow up on last year’s run to the quarterfinals. They opened Tuesday at Bristol Eastern.
Senior Julia Podchaiski has been leading the Sheehan girls soccer team all fall, be it scoring goals or setting them up and, in the big picture, setting the tone as captain. On Monday, in the opening round of the Class M state tournament, Podchaiski pocketed two of Sheehan’s 11 goals – yes, 11 – in a shutout victory over Platt Tech that propelled the Titans into their second-round date with Nonnewaug in Wednesday’s second round.
