Injured man rescued in Weybridge Cave Aug. 6

By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@ denpubs.com WEYBRIDGE Ñ Fire and rescue crews in Addison County helped rescue an unidentified man who spent up to 14 hours in a Weybridge Cave Aug. 6. The limestone cave is the largest solution cave in Vermont, according to several sources. It is also considered the second largest cave of its type in the New England states.

Emergency crews arrived at the cave site during the early evening hours of Aug. 6. The man suffered several injuries including a broken ankle. He was transported to Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington rather than nearby Porter Medical Center in Middlebury.

One of Vermont’s most experienced cave explorers, Rick Pingree of Rutland, has been cautioning the public about entering caves for years. Ò Caves are popular spots for local young people. But it’s dangerous to go alone and unprepared. Never enter a cave without a hard hat, three light sources, sturdy boots, and a plan to get out. Let someone know where you are going, too,” Pingree told the Eagle last year. However, Pingree noted at the time, to never enter a cave without asking permission first.

Weybridge Cave contains many chambers on descending levels.

The natural feature is geologically significant for its dripstone formations.

Aurora Middle School prepares for first day MIDDLEBURY — Last week, students and teachers of the Aurora Middle School met to prepare their new private school.

The seventh and eighth grade school will be located at 56 North Pleasant St. in downtown Middlebury, sharing space with Havurah, the Jewish Community of Addison County.

Aurora Middle School’s mission is to provide a challenging academic environment with an interdisciplinary, thematic curriculum that fosters creativity and personal growth.

Students and teachers worked together, organizing their library, moving in furniture and transporting academic supplies. They were excited for a donation of six Dell Laptop computers from Middlebury College’s Library Information Services. The students and teachers also repainted shelving and tie dyed lab coats.

Members of the school community will meet again on Friday, Aug. 16, to further organize their school in preparation for opening day on Sept. 4.

Aurora Middle School has limited spaces in seventh and eighth grade.

For more information, call 802-388-2637.

New Aurora Middle School seventh grade students Megan Thomas-Danyow, Sarah Hunt, and Aedan Taylor—along with teachers Elaine Anderson, Frankie Dunleavy Yeaton, and Danielle Levine—are preparing for the first day of school in Middlebury.

Moffat to coach Castleton ice hockey program CASTLETON Ñ Castleton College Associate Dean for Athletics and Recreation, Deanna Tyson announced that former Plattsburgh State assistant hockey coach Steve Moffat has been named the new Castleton men’s ice hockey coach.

“We are very excited to have Steve join our staff,” Tyson said. “His time at Plattsburgh has been marked by success both on the ice and off. I have no doubt that he is the right person to build off the strong foundation already established in our men’s hockey program.”

Moffat has been a member of the Plattsburgh men’s ice hockey staff for the last 13 years, including the past ten as Head Coach Bob Emery’s top assistant. His chief responsibilities included recruiting, game-film breakdown, assisting with game and practice preparation, as well as monitoring the academic success of student-athletes and team travel.

“I am incredibly thankful for the opportunity to lead the Castleton hockey program,” Moffat said.

“I want to thank (President) Dave Wolk, (Dean of Administration) Scott Dikeman, Deanna Tyson

Moffat has been a member of the Plattsburgh men’s ice hockey staff for the last 13 years. and the entire search committee for believing in me and providing that opportunity. I would also like to thank Coach Emery for his leadership and support. Spending 17 years as a player and coach learning under one of the most successful coaches in the country has given me the experience and knowledge to lead a program like Castleton, which in just ten years has emerged as a national contender.”

On the ice the Cardinals have won at least 19 games in each of the past six seasons and reached the NCAA National Tournament in five of the past

six years, including an appearance in the NCAA Division III National Championship game during the 2007-08 season. Plattsburgh has also won five SUNYAC Championships in Moffat’s ten years as the top assistant. As a graduate assistant he helped the Cardinals to an NCAA Title in 2001.

Moffat was a two-time All-American forward at Plattsburgh and finished his career with over 100 goals and 200 total points. He graduated in 1998 with a bachelor’s degree in sociology and earned his master’s degree in school counseling from Plattsburgh in 2002.

After his graduation in 1998, Moffat played professionally in the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL) for the Northeast Division champion Columbus Chill in 1998-99. The following season, he helped the Florida Everblades clinch the ECHL’s best record and 2000 Southeast Division crown.

Moffat takes over for Alex Todd who resigned to become an assistant coach at Division I University of Nebraska-Omaha in July.

RUTLAND Ð On Wednesday, Aug. 21, from 6-8 p.m., Mount Saint Joseph Academy in Rutland will hold a cookout for all interested students and families at historic Saint Peter’s Field, located on River Street in Rutland. Hamburgers, hot dogs, and salads will be served.

MSJ Principal Sandra Wilkes, faculty members, coaches, and families will be on hand to answer questions about the private school.

If your family has a student who will be in seventh grade or above next year, please consider attending. The event will give you the opportunity to see first-hand the community atmosphere that characterizes MSJ. No RSVP is required, but you may call the school at 802775-0151 for more details.

While at the Mount, nearly all Mount Saint Joseph Academy students participate in extra-curricular activities, while still taking a rigorous college preparatory curriculum. The MSJ class of 2013 won numerous accolades. The graduates received an average of over $100,000 in college aid.

Located at 127 Convent Ave. in Rutland, Mount Saint Joseph Academy is a college preparatory Catholic high school founded in 1882.

MIDDLEBURY Ñ Do you have a gun around the house that you would like to dispose

of safely and with the assurance that it won’t end up being used in a crime or suicide in the future? That’s a question being asked by a Middlebury minister and the town’s police department.

Middlebury’s Champlain Valley Unitarian Universalist Society, in cooperation with the Middlebury Police Department, will be sponsoring a gun disposal incentive program for residents of Addison County this month. Bring your gun to the police department any day during August with evidence that you are a county resident and the police will issue a voucher good for a $50 check from the church, payable in September. Ò We give half of our offering each month to a charitable activity,” said Rev. Barnaby Feder, CVUUS’s minister. “We have been trying to expand our thinking this year about what types of services we support with our donations. For instance, in June, we decided to support cultural vitality in Addison County by donating to the Festival on the Green. It seemed to us that donating in August to a gun disposal effort would be a good follow-up to the forum on guns sponsored by the Middlebury Area Clergy Association in March that was held in our sanctuary.”

One takeaway from the March forum was that Addison County residents on all sides of the gun debates support the goal of making gun ownership and use in our region as safe as possible, according to Feder. Getting guns that are not being used out of circulation for good can reduce the risks of an accidental shooting in the home or of the gun being used in a suicide, he noted.

“Suicide by gun is a major health issue nationwide and easy access to guns is a concern for health officials even in a state like Vermont where hunters and gun users have an admirable safety record,” said Feder. He added that giving unwanted guns to the police instead of selling them on the private market may also protect a gunowner from unwittingly contributing to crime in other states.

Police and other police departments in the area have in the past routinely accepted guns for disposal.

New Haven duo finds expression through wood, watercolors BRANDON Ñ Husband and wife artists Dale Hastings and Jess Whitney of New Haven, Vt., are committed to sharing their work at local farmers markets—in Rutland, Brandon and Middlebury to mention a few. They are also enjoying their retirement years better by being both creative, engaged in everyday living, and on the go. Ò We are so fortunate to work from our retirement home,” according to Jess. Ò Dale and I incorporated a constructive, creative work space when designing, building and landscaping our home here in rural Vermont. We created and crafted every detail as we honed our art and craft skills. Our work space now nourishes our creativity and is the perfect environment for us to spend our time producing hand crafted wooden boxes, jewelry organizers, cutting boards and watercolor paintings, et cetera, for art and craft markets and shops.”

At a recent Friday morning farmers’ market event in downtown Brandon, Dale was hard at work at his booth making finely sawed U.S. coin jewelry which he displays alongside his artisan wood products.

Dale uses a saw with a micro-fine blade to cut out images from U.S. quarter and other denomination pieces—such as eagles and state symbols; the various pieces, in turn, make for eye-catching jewelry worn by men and women.

Jess’s original watercolor paintingsÑ featuring jawdroppingly beautiful botanicals and landscapesÑ are displayed alongside Dale’s work at their farmers market displays. Ò Whether paintings or woodcraft, we offer competitively priced handmade keepsakes you will be proud to own or give as gifts,” Dale said.

Dale noted that his woodcraft also includes jewelry boxes, flag display cases, recipe boxes, cell-phone charging station boxes, jewelry organizers, jewelry holders, kitchencutting boards and original watercolor paintings.

He uses mostly Vermont wood with a few sustainably harvested exotics—cherry, oak, white oak, red oak, mahogany, sipo, spalted maple, birdseye maple, curly cherry, black walnut, and others.

Dale’s work is nearly perfect, as far as we can tell; his attention to woodworking details must be seen to be believed. It’s hard to find a single flaw when examining his jewelry storage and organization boxes, flag-display cases, and other wood products.

“We like doing the farmers market circuit in the summer,” Dale noted, “and we do our best to keep our New Haven shop supplied with handcrafted wood items. April is the beginning of the eight months we produce our hand crafted boxes. Then, starting in No-

vember, we concentrate on the holiday market, then reorganize and rest a bit to get ready for April.”

According to Jess, “Heartfelt feelingsÑ thoughtsÑ for family and friends, experiences and books inspire our work.

We are both retired, energetic and love designing, creating and the challenge of working each day to make something very special to make heirloom quality keepsake gifts.”

From the Editor

Waiting for the next Irene

or many baby boomers, and those younger, the idea of hurricanes reaching far northern New England is something we never thought much about until recently.

Sure, there have been hurricanes—such as the 1938 titan, now known as the Great New England Hurricane, and the fierce remnants of Hurricane Floyd in 1999Ñ that were on the margins of our weather history, but nothing in our collective memory was quite like Irene and Sandy.

August 2011 and Tropical Storm—nee Hurricane—Irene changed our smug sense of extreme weather invulnerability. Well, not so with today’s climate change.

You can check this stuff in our regional weather records, but until Irene, the 1938 storm was the only tropical cyclone to hit the Vermont bull’s eye.

So, the big question now confronting Vermonters is—how easily will we endure the next Irene? It’s the proverbial 500-pound gorilla in the room. Based on supercomputer weather modeling showing the new climate trends, there will be more northern-trending hurricanes in our future. It’s now clear—Irene and Sandy were not the last cyclonic monsters to drop-in on us.

Experts are saying the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season promises to be strongly active and a potentially nasty.

According to NOAA, “the hurricane season starts in June and runs until the end of November. The peak of the season ranges from midAugust through mid-October sometimes longer.” So, here we are, approaching mid August and between six and nine hurricanes are being forecast through this November.

The NOAA 2013 forecast is predicting three to five major hurricanes, each with winds greater than 110 mph. “The chance that 2013 will be more active than normal remains at 70 percent,” according to NOAA’s website.

August 17, 2013

NOAA has reported that the Atlantic Ocean is warmer than normal, coupled with increased rainfall in West Africa, again reflecting the changes in our atmosphere underway.

“This fits with a larger 25-to-40-year cycle of hurricane activity that meteorologists have seen over the decades,” according to an A.P. news report in June of this year.

As a footnote to this, we’re still seeing local news accounts of the lingering effects of Irene in Vermont.

About a month ago, this newspaper filed a report about a volunteer group in the Ludlow area that was cleaning up flood debris from the 2011 superstorm. Irene may have been two years ago, but when it comes to today’s new breed of tropical storm, it’s never really over; Irene’s effects may linger for many decades.

Ok, with all that said, here’s our question to you: Are you prepared for the next Irene?

Let’s not wait for government to make things better; instead, take ownership of your own safety as much as you can.

You can start preparing for the next Irene by assembling a basic disaster supply kit. Also, look around your homestead for potentially dangerous thingsÑ such as tall trees that are too close to the house or power lines, as well as yard debris (high winds can transform lawn chairs and tables into deadly missiles). And are you too close to a river or creek which may surge during a tropical storm? Do you have an emergency escape plan?

Former Philadelphia Phillies outfielder turned evangelist Billy Sunday used to say, “There’s still time, brothers and sisters—there’s still time.”

Yes, there’s still time, but don’t wait too long for the next Irene.

You can find out more about preparing for tropical cyclones by visiting FEMA’s “Get Ready” website at www.ready.gov/hurricanes.

Lots of fun at Field Days

newmarketpress@denpubs.com NEW HAVEN Ñ For attendees of the 2013 edition of Addison County Fair & Field Days, nearly every day of the Aug. 6-10 event had plenty of sunshine and comfortable, late-summer daytime temperatures.

Except for a big rain storm Aug. 9, this year’s visitors to fairgrounds in New Haven didn’t have to spend too much time huddling inside exhibit halls and food tents waiting for a lull in the

weather action.

Field Days 2013 included several popular attractions—Horses, Horses, Horses, a traveling carnival show which sported smart, well trained miniature horses, Rosie’s Racing Pigs, with fuzzy little hams running a penned-in track at breakneck speeds, and enough dairy and other agriculture shows to support the claim of this event being Vermont’s largest agricultural fair.

According to a few midway booth workers we sampled, fairgoers didn’t open their wallets as much as they did in recent years; no matter, attendance appeared strong. And judging by

the brisk sales in steak sandwiches, candy apples, fried dough, fresh lemonade, and various souvenir trinkets, everyone seemed to find a perfect level of fun. In the final analysis, fun is what Field Days is all about.

The fair concluded at dusk Aug. 10 with the annual spectacular display of fireworks which always wows the crowd. So, it’s farewell Field Days, at least until they do it all over again—and probably even betterÑ in August 2014.

Here are a few photographs of this year’s Field days to add to the memories.

COUSINS — The bright sunlight was in the eyes of the Valley cousins at Addison County Fair & Field Days this year. Twins Jack and Ben Valley of Grand Isle, joined by little cousin Ethan Valley of Burlington, visited the fairgrounds with their grandmother Marian Valley of Swanton. They liked climbing aboard the many sizes of tractors displayed at the fair. “ I like bringing the boys to the Addison County fair because it’s a real agricultural fair,” Mrs. Valley said.

VERMONT EAGLE — Like Michelangelo working in cellulose, chainsaw artist Brett Sargent of Lincoln sculpts the mascot of the Vermont Eagle out of a white pine log at Addison County Fair & Field Days. Sargent likes to use softwood—either pine or hemlock—to create larger-than-life statuary with great detail.

Carleton said many learning experiences abound, a short distance from the three program sites.

Among the interesting Vermont people and places students visit, and then report on, includeÑ Patrick MacManaway, president of the Dowsing Society of Great Britain, Al Martin owner of Point Bay Marina, John Cohn, a computer scientist at IBM Vermont, Naomi Tatro, a psychic, Aaron Jackson, a pitcher for the Vermont Lake Monsters, Joe Citro, popular Vermont author,

Tony Galley, a cartoonist and art teacher, Frank Pakulski, an owner of an historic collection of exotic and classic cars, Chief James Waden of the Shelburne Police Department, Dr. Gary Solow, veterinarian, Cathy Hurst, manager of the Saint Michale’s Playhouse, John Quinn, Vermont State’s Attorney and private pilot, and guitarist Ben Lee. Carleton said she and her fellow teachers are committed to the educational mission of the Shader Croft School. Ò Our goal is to help students develop effec-

tive literacy and communication skills by valuing student’s interests and connecting them to the world around them in a real and meaningful ways,” she said. “It’s a nurturing place where children are helped to facilitate their own interests and learn about them.”

HINESBURG Ñ Students of the Shader Croft School, a private non-profit literacy school based in Hinesburg, provides hands-on literacy and communications learning for students in grades six through eight.

The school, which offers classes at sites in Hinseburg, Shelburne, and Williston, provides young people with a variety of “real-world” learning opportunities According to instructor and artist Katie Carleton, the school focuses on adolescents struggling to develop competencies in the area of literacy.

“The school and summer learning program began in 2000 by Steve Hyde and Eric Mortensen,” according to Carleton. “They were colleagues at Edmunds Middle school in Burlington. They founded the school especially for students who were just beginning to discover both themselves and the challenges of adult living that lay ahead.”

Co-founder Hyde is a graduate of both the Harvard Graduate School of Education (Mind, Brain and Education) and University of Vermont’s School Counseling graduate program.

Hyde has been a middle school counselor and mathematics teacher since 1982. He has a special academic interest in cognitive-neuro science.

On a recent mid-summer outing, Carleton and a fellow Shader Croft instructor led a group of students on a fun learning and discovery field trip to a commercial garden in South Starksboro.

At Marijke’s Perennial Gardens Plus, owned and stewarded by Marijke Niles, students learned about growing grape vines, tending flowering shrubs, as well as how various insectsÑ good and badÑ affect plant life in Vermont. They also learned about how climate affects Vermont’s trees, shrubs, and animal life.

The students visited Niles’ gardens as part of the school’s unique four-week program centered on trips around the state. Students select, organize and lead the outings. Ò They received reading instruction to prepare them for this adventure; then they will spend many hours learning how to write about what they just did so they can share their experiences with classmates, family, and friends,” Carleton noted.

Several students were busy asking Niles about the various bugs they collected on the leaves in her high-altitude garden center located at 1,500 feet above sea level in the foothills of the Green Mountains. They also inspected giant glacial erraticsÑ ancient bouldersÑ which are scattered around Niles intriguing outdoor garden center.

State investigates misuse of pesticide in Rutland area RUTLAND — The Department of Health and the Agency of Agriculture, Food & Markets continue to investigate the possible misuse of a pesticide in the Rutland region

by AAA Accredited Pest Control company.

The Agency of Agriculture summarily suspended the license of AAA Accredited Pest Control in July.

The company is suspected of using a chemical (chlorpyrifos) to treat for bed bugs and other insects. Chlorpyrifos has been prohibited for indoor use by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency since 2001.

The State has obtained customer records from AAA from 2012 that show 150 residences, in addition to the 61 originally identified, that were sprayed with various pesticides.

The state sent letters to those residents on July 8 asking permission to collect samples in homes for laboratory testing.

The state is offering the testing at no cost.

“We’re asking for everyone’s assistance and patience, and we are grateful to the residents who have had their homes tested so far,” said Health Commissioner Harry Chen, M.D. “We’ve been working closely with state and federal agencies and while the scope

Visit www.denpubs. com for breaking news and photo galleries updated daily

of our work has expanded, our approach is the same. We want to test the homes and then determine the best course of action to address any possible health concerns.”

Chlorpyrifos can remain in a home even if it was treated months or years ago. Symptoms of short term exposure can include runny nose, tearing, increased saliva, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Long term symptoms can include problems with memory or sleep.

The prohibited pesticide was detected in 20 of the 61 homes tested to date.

Recommendations for clean up will be based on the amount of pesticide detected by laboratory testing. Test samples will be collected during the next several weeks.

If you have questions about health effects, protective actions, or to have your home tested call the Department of Health at 800-439-8550 or 802-652-0357.

If you feel sick after pesticide has been used in your home call your doctor or the Northern New England Poison Control Center at 800222-1222 or chat online at www.nnepc.org.

If you have questions, dial 2-1-1 to call Vermont 2-1-1, United Ways of Vermont.

ate of Saint Michael’s College in Colchester.

Demers grew up in the restaurant and catering business; working summer jobs through high school and college. The restaurant where she worked during college offered her a management position upon graduating. Afterward, she worked for several corporate restaurants including 99 restaurants and TGI Fridays before getting her lucky break with a Vermont ski area.

Demers worked at Stratton Mountain Resort for two years prior to her arrival at Okemo.

MacPherson said Chef Scot Emerson joined Okemo in November 2011 as executive chef of Coleman Brook Tavern. He came to Okemo from the Wilburton Inn in Manchester where he was the Restaurant Manager. Prior to that he was with Stratton Mountain Inn and the Equinox Resort.

Emerson graduated from The Culinary Institute of America and has worked with the Culinary Olympic Team. He has had the honor of cooking for the Queen of England.

Okemo’s MacPherson said that Emerson created the Farmto-Table initiative at Okemo by partnering with local businesses and food producers—taking the dining at Coleman Brook Tavern to new heights.

“Under Emerson’s supervision, Coleman Brook Tavern experienced a record-breaking winter. He recently was featured in the Vermont Fresh Network’s winter edition. He traveled to New York City to cook for members of the media as part of Vermont Ski Areas Association’s “A Taste of Ski Vermont” at the Kitchen NYC, a premiere full service, state-of-the-art kitchen studio located in midtown Manhattan. Since Emerson’s arrival, Coleman Brook Tavern has become a member of the Vermont Fresh Network and the American Culinary Federation,” MacPherson noted.

“Being part of the Okemo family has been a wonderful experience,” Emerson said. “We have a great culinary team across the mountain and I look forward to getting to work with the other managers more closely.”

Local H.S. students win college’s achievement award

COLCHESTER Ñ A group of local high school students were awarded the 2013 Saint Michael’s College Book Award for Academic Achievement with a Social Conscience.

Winning the award from the Eagle circulation area are: •Olivia Bloomer of Sudbury, a student at Otter Valley Union High School.

•Sonia Howlett of Cornall, a student at Middlebury Union High School.

•Rowan Kamman of Vergennes, a student at Vergennes Union High School.

•Jonah Lefkoe of Middlebury, a student at Middlebury Union High School.

•Phoebe Plank of North Ferrisburg, a student at Vergennes Union High School.

The award recognizes students who demonstrate a commitment to leadership in volunteer service and academic achievement. Saint Michael’s, located in Burlington, Vermont, one of America’s top 10 college towns, was founded on the belief that serving others is part of its Catholic tradition, and through the award seeks to honor those who demonstrate the true spirit of volunteerism.

Award recipients, named at schools throughout the country, are high school juniors who are inductees of the National Honor Society or an

equivalent school-sponsored honors organization.They must demonstrate a commitment to service activities in high school or community organizations, taking leadership roles in these activities.

Winners were presented the book, “First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers” by Loung Ung, a 1993 Saint Michael’s College graduate who has become a widely acclaimed author.

In the book, Ung gives an autobiographical account, from a child’s perspective, of surviving captivity during the genocidal Pol Pot regime in Cambodia. Loung Ung, born in 1970, is a Cambodian-born American human-rights activist and lecturer. She is the national spokesperson for the Campaign for a Landmine-Free World. Between 1997 and 2003 she served in the same capacity for the International Campaign to Ban Land Mines, which is affiliated with the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation.

In her book, Ung reveals an indomitable spirit in the face of profound suffering, including the loss of both her parents and two of her siblings. She has written a riveting memoir about a family’s survival, and in turn, about the development of her ongoing crusade for a landmine free world.

Loung Ung, a 1993 Saint Michael’s College graduate, has become a widely acclaimed author.

Rutland on track to becoming solar capital of New England

By Jenna Wang

newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND Ñ Canadian-owned Green Mountain Power recently set out on a project to make Rutland County the Solar Capital of New England.

This quantifiable goal stands at 6,250 kilowatts, the largest installed solar capacity per capita in the Northeast. In addition to the innovative and enthusing aspects of the project, the results will yield great benefits to the Rutland area. Foremost, the solar panel farms will create even more clean, renewable sources and the use of homegrown resources and labor will infuse money into the local economy.

GMP has already gotten a running start with projects like the Creek Path Solar Farm as well as smaller, individual projects. Recently, they awarded the College of Saint Joseph a solar farm, to be built by Positive Energy atop the roof of the college’s athletic center. While the farm at CSJ is to be built this fall, GMP is also seeking a permit to build on Rutland City’s longclosed landfill, a project named “Stafford Hill Solar Farm.”

College of Saint Joseph Solar developer Positive Energy was selected by GMP to build its first rooftop solar farm at the College of St. Joseph. The numerous bid winners for these projects reflects excellent competition, but for CSJ, “Positive Energy provided a very competitive quote, using American-made materials, local labor and some creative thinking, and won the contract over a solid field of respected bidders,” said Steve Costello, GMP’s vice president for generation and energy innovation.

Positive Energy will build the system with assistance from students in the Green Mountain College Renewable Energy and Ecological Design major, and will use materials largely sourced from Rutland-area suppliers. Their project proposal included roof-friendly rubber feet for the solar array ballasts, made from recycled tires.

Utilizing recycled materials and internal resources whenever possible has always been a Positive Energy core operating principle.

“I am very pleased that a company with local roots and local workers won the bid for the project,” College of St. Joseph President Rich Lloyd said. Ò As the college grows and develops its connections to GMP, the economic value of our efforts

Map of the Stafford Hill Solar Farm on the site of the former Rutland City Landfill. to the community will only multiply.”

The project also supports Vermont’s renewable energy goals, which include reliance on renewable energy for 90 percent of the state’s electricity needs by 2050, 20 percent through projects in Vermont’s Sustainably Priced Energy Development Program by 2017.

GMP hopes to complete the project this fall, and will own and maintain it under a 25-year lease agreement with CSJ. GMP will credit the college for 10 percent of the project’s output, and the remaining energy will go onto the local electric grid and will be consumed by local customers.

The project name, tied to the college itself, follows GMP’s practice of naming its Rutland solar farms after positive attributes of the community. Despite the imminent attainment of the solar capital goal, GMP is reaching above and beyond, continuing to talk with numerous solar developers, non-profits and local businesses about power purchase agreements and other potential projects in the city.

Stafford Hill GMP recently applied for a Vermont Public Service Board permit to build the Stafford Hill Solar Farm on the City of Rutland’s long-closed landfill.

The 2.3-megawatt solar farm will be located off Gleason Road, behind the Stafford Technical Center and Rutland High School.

“Stafford Hill would be the first solar

project in Vermont to repurpose a dormant landfill,” said GMP President and CEO Mary Powell. Ò There are not only tremendous renewable energy benefits, but substantial benefits for our customers and the state of Vermont in finding ways to make productive uses out of landfills and other brownfields, which would otherwise present only liabilities.”

GMP expects to put the project out to bid later this summer, and hopes to build the project in 2014.

The project will cover about 9 acres, including 7,800 solar panels that, in peak sunlight, could supply enough energy to power about 2,300 typical homes.

GMP designed the project in collaboration with Sanborn, Head and Associates, a consulting firm that has had significant experience with solar projects on landfills. Ò We are hopeful that the project will provide a blueprint for developing similar sites across the state that could provide additional benefits to Vermont,” said Steve Costello, GMP’s vice president for generation and energy innovation.

Stafford Hill, named for the Stafford Technical Center and former U.S. Senator Robert Stafford, keeps with GMP’s plan to name its local solar farms after positive attributes of the community Senator Stafford is considered one of the Senate’s top all-time environmentalists, and Stafford Tech has been a solid partner on multiple GMP projects.

Bike tours help Land Trust display preservation work

By Gail Callahan

newmarketpress@denpubs.com CHARLOTTE — It’s not everyday that a community celebrates a 250th birthday, but last year was Charlotte’s turn.

To mark the event, the Charlotte Land Trust, a body charged with the business of conserving the natural, scenic and agricultural areas in town, sponsored a series of bike tours throughout local neighborhoods.

The event proved to be so popular that the Land Trust, formed in the mid 1980s, decided to offer the venture again this summer.

According to the non-profit Charlotte Land Trust member Mary Volk, maps showcasing the routes were available at Charlotte Town Hall, on the group’s website and signs around the community were also visible around the time the annual Town Party took place last month. However, Volk noted this year’s tour took on a slightly different hue from last year’s.

“We published maps of the routes for people, and this time the routes are all self-guided,” Volk said. “It’s been very informal, and it’s a way to draw attention to the Land Trust’s work.”

The organization’s website noted that CLT became incorporated well over a decade ago, helping to preserve a number of “notable natural resources.” Its mission is to preserve, protect and enhance the historic and rural beauty of the area by conserving agricultural lands, forests and wild areas.

Because the tours were self-guided, Volk noted there was no way to track how many people are participating, but she added that last year’s event drew about 50. She said there were two routes; an 11-mile ride and a longer 19-mile tour. Those who hopped on their bikes, strapping on their helmets did ride

Cops investigate Bristol assault

BRISTOL — On Aug. 6, Vermont State Police officials reported that they investigating a domestic assault that occurred on Burpee Road in Bristol.

After the assault the accused, Arnold Fuentes, 35, of Bristol fled and his whereabouts are unknown at this time.

Fuentes is currently operating a 2002 Ford Taurus gold or tan in color unknown registration.

If you have information regarding this incident, contact Vermont State Police at 802-388-4919. Information can also be submitted online at www.vtips.info or text CRIMES (274637) to keyword VTIPS.

through some of the town’s most scenic areas, while also glimpsing paths conserved by the CLT. Frances Foster, who served as CLT president for 13 years, also emphasized that the tours serve as a springboard for people to enjoy nature, while enjoying the lands conserved by the organization. “It was unique to put up signs, telling people about the tours,” said Foster. “It highlights the conserved lands, and that’s the selling point.”

According to the website, CLT has acquired 11 conservation easements on local land, totaling 400 acres, since the 1990s; these are monitored by our organized Stewardship Program. The local trust has also assisted the Vermont Land Trust, the Lake Champlain Land Trust, the Nature Conservancy, and other conservation groups with numerous projects in town.

At various times, CLT has had paid staff, but for the past decade, it has operated as an all-volunteer organization with a board of approximately ten people. The accomplishments of CLT have only been possible through the support, energy and commitment of many Charlotters.

Although Charlotte has grown over the last quarter century since the Charlotte Land Trust has become active, it still retains much of what makes Charlotte a special place to live and work.

For more information on CLT, visit www.Charlottelandtrust.org.

The Charlotte Land Trust Board of Directors also took part in a recent bike tour. Board members included Laura Crandall, Frances Foster, Marty Illick, Tim King, Kate Lampton, Jane Lawlis, Edd Merritt, David Pill, Jessie Price, Larry Sommers and Mary Volk.

s you can imagine, the staff at the Rutland County Humane Society goes through a lot of supplies feeding and caring for the animals in the shelter.

We are currently in need of certain items so if you’d like to make a donation for the animals they’d really appreciate it.

The shelter needs dishwashing soap, hi-efficiency laundry detergent, 33 gallon trash bags, 15 gallon trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, pig ears, large rawhide bones and bedding for the animals (new or used comforters, quilts, blankets, sheets, bath towels and hand towels).

The animals and staff would be very appreciative of donations of any of these items! If you have any questions please contact the shelter at 802-483-6700.

Thank you for your continued support.

TITAN Two year old. Neutered Male. American Shelter Dog. I’m a big boy who is handsome and strong. I love to play with squeaky toys and tennis balls and have enjoyed my time with the staff while they play catch with me and my favorite toys.

I know how to “sit” and I really enjoy being with people. I’m an active fella who would do well in a family that likes outdoor activities because lots of exercise and play time will be important for me.

Are you looking for a cuddly love bug to add to your home?

Well look no further.

I am a very beautiful and unique looking girl who is ready to provide my new family with loads of love.

It was really nice being in a home environment and I cannot wait to have those luxuries forever. I am not a big fan of other cats so a single cat household may be the best option for me.

August 17, 2013 ELIZABETH Six year old. Spayed Female. Domestic Short Hair Orange Tiger.

I bet you have never seen a kitty quite like me. I am super unique with a half orange face and a half black face. I am just like Halloween. In my new home I am really hoping I can stay inside so that I don’t end up as a stray again. I am a very laid back girl who should fit into any home quite nicely. I have never lived with other cats before but a friend might be nice in my new home.

HAWK Six year old. Neutered Male. American Shelter Dog. OK, so I’m a little big to be a lap dog but I don’t care. I’ll start by putting my front 2 paws on your lap and before you know it, I’m a lap dog. I’m super handsome and really enjoy being with people. I will lean into you so I can get as close as possible and hope I’ll get an extra pat or two.

I know how to Sit and Shake (with both paws) and enjoy looking out the window to see what’s going on in the world. And when I’m ready for a snooze I’ll curl up at your feet for a nap. I’m as handsome as can be and will be your best buddy.

U.S. Forest Service collecting food for families in need

RUTLAND — Employees of Vermont’s Green Mountain and New York’s Finger Lakes National ForestsÑ two national forests jointly administered from headquarters in Rutland— have launched a bi-state effort to feed local families in need.

The food drive, known nationally as Feds Feed Families runs through Aug. 28 and will benefit local food shelves in Vermont and New York.

Teaming up with local social service organizations, food shelves, and the Rutland Price Chopper, the Forest Service has set a goal of reaching 1,000 pounds of donated food by the end of August.

Recognizing that this has been a been a difficult year for many families in Vermont, New York and elsewhere, the Forest Service is stepping up in an effort to provide much needed food to families before the winter months.

Each Forest Service office in Vermont; Rutland, Manchester, Middlebury and Rochester will participate in the food drive. The Hector Ranger District on the Finger Lakes National Forest in New York will also be working to gather food for a local food shelf. In addition, the Rutland Price Chopper has joined in the ef-

fort, offering to collect food items from patrons at their Rutland location. Ò We are always looking for ways to support local organizations in and around the communities that we live and work in,” said Mary Doke, acting forest supervisor for the Green Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. Ò Our efforts in Vermont and New York are threefold—we get to contribute food to local people in need, we get to raise awareness about issues like hunger and homelessness, and we get a chance to showcase other dedicated partners who have the common vision of helping people who live

in our communities.”

Employees in Vermont and New York began will begin donating non-perishable food items this week.

To contribute, employees and the public can bring non-perishable food items and drop them off MondayÐ Friday between the hours of 8 a.m.–4:30 p.m. at one of the Vermont U.S. Forest Service locations listed below.

Contributions can be made 24 hours a day, seven days a week at the Rutland Price Chopper. Each year, while many American families go hungry, more than 100 billion pounds of

the homes we lived in were heated with Natural Gas. In the 20 years we lived in Western New York we never had any kind of problem with Natural Gas. It was dependable and far less expensive that oil.

Hundreds of thousands of homes in Western New York are heated by gas without incident. Miles of natural gas pipelines in that region has proven to be safe.

I also support Vermont Gas Systems plans Addison County because I believe that they will help keep and attract jobs in the region. Say what you will about the International Paper Mill in Ticonderoga, the fact is as a region we need to keep those jobs.
