LOCAL REALTORS WORKING WITH STAY-AT-HOME ORDER
DIY face masks are easy, safe

MIDDLEBURY | Addison County’s real estate market is feeling the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic. With Gov. Phil Scott’s Stay Home, Stay Safe executive order many non-essential businesses are trying to make do under the new rules of the health crisis. According to Middlebury IPJ Real Estate broker Courtney DeBisschop, the 34 Main St. business is getting through the unusual event. “We are complying with the governor’s order to stay home and stay safe,” said DeBisschop. “No showings are being conducted or in-person meetings. We are still able to meet conduct business over the phone, but we are certainly limited. This is typically a very busy time of year for us so this will be a change.” What about the status of buyers and sellers in the area? “Both are pretty much on hold,” DeBisschop said. DeBisschop said that IPJ reported low inventory with quite a few buyers in the market before the virus hit. “(But) this is a much different problem unlike what happened in the mortgage crisis in 2007-08,” she added. “Once things get back to normal we are hopeful that confidence can be restored quickly.” At Emilo Real Estate, located at 173 Court St. in Middlebury, business is not

MIDDLEBURY | Do-it-yourself (DIY) projects are s up p o s e d to b e f u n and a way to be creative around the house. With the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, the DIY project has taken on a new twist. For example, how about assembling your own homemade anti-sneeze face masks? As efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 continue and with critical shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE), a team of nurses and health technicians at Community Health Network (CHN) has provided the public with fabric face mask instructions. The Eagle staff is happy to share this important DIY project with readers. The following instructions are courtesy of the clinical team at Community Health Network: 1. T-shirt face masksMaterials needed: Two pieces of tightly woven cotton fabric (examples: clean pillow cases or 100% cotton t-shirts). Cut to 9” X 6” (adult) or 7 ½” X 5” (child). Elastic options: Rope elastic, ⅛” wide flat elastic, or beading cord elastic. You need 7.5 yards of elastic for 25 masks (14” per mask). Other cord options: Bead lacing or parachute cord Preparation for ear loops: Elastic: Cut two 7” long pieces and tie a knot at each end (14” of elastic per mask). Do not tie a knot with flat elastic.
Nancy Foster: “It cer tainly is an interesting time.”

as expected. According to agent and owner Roxanna Emilo, “We have been told to stop all showings Understandably, we can send lists as we just have to have sellers send the photos or re active one that might have expired or terminated for a short time.” Emilo has contracts and her transactions are still continuing, but not in person. “We’re continuing to get property under contract, but we’ve been adding a coronavirus contingency that allows for things to be extended in the event that inspections, appraisals, etc cannot be completed due to complications
from the virus,” she said. Meanwhile, Emilo reports that inspections have stopped and appraisals are varying bank to bank. “Some drive-by appraisals are being approved,” she added. Emilo is understandably frustrated by the current atmosphere. “Personally, I do have three under contract and basically close to closing,” she said. “Folks are unable to look at the inside of properties so that makes it very difficult for buying. We are all doing our best to support each other and stay home as we are told.” Emilo is helping out the community in her usual way. “I go out to help a couple of elderly folks to get their groceries, pet food and do my own groceries and banking.” At present, Emilo has 147 listings on the market active for Addison County and 47 pending or under contract. “Things had been moving pretty quickly before this. The inventory was low while interest rates were getting better for buyers. As far as the future goes, it’s unknown on how long this is going to last. I’m home spending time with my son Wyatt; doing homework and catching up on household projects, but also sending listings and working on current active contracts.” See REAL ESTATE » pg. 3
State seeks volunteers as surge centers open

Joining other stores, Plexiglas ”sneeze shields” were installed recently along check-out lines in Hannaford Supermarket to protect cashiers and customers during the current crisis. ”When you’re in the grocery store, you should only touch items you plan to buy,” Lauren Sauer of Johns Hopkins’ Critical Event Preparedness and Response told reporters last week. “Don’t pick them up and read them and then put them back.” She also warned against hoarding which deprives others of needed store items. Gov. Phil Scott said grocery store employees are considered “essential persons” during the pandemic. Photo by Lou Varricchio
MONTPELIER | Vermont Gov. Phil Scott last week announced new steps in the state’s plan to prepare for a surge in COVID-19 cases, and in turn, the need for additional hospital and medical capacity. “We continue to expand our medical surge capacity to be prepared for what could be a significant increase in medical need in our state in the coming weeks,” said Scott. Scott said the state has coordinated with communities and hospitals statewide, and with Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in New Hampshire, to increase capacity in the event of a surge of COVID-19 patients who require medical care. In partnership with the Vermont National Guard (VTNG), the State is creating two additional high capacity care sites for surge: one in Essex Junction at the Champlain Valley Exposition (CVE), which will provide 400 beds staffed primarily by VTNG personnel; and another in Rutland County, supported by the Rutland Regional Medical Center, which will provide 150 beds. These sites will be operated in close coordination with health care providers and will only be used if hospitals exceed their capacity. See SURGE CENTER VOLUNTEERS » pg. 2

COVID-19: NO ROOM AT THE INNS
Cases increase; inns, hotels, motels closed unless exempted By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
MIDDLEBURY | Vermont Department of Health officials are still urging residents to stay at home and away from gatherings. Th e renewed call follows a total number of COVID-19 cases which increased by 28 to 321 cases in Vermont last week. Gov. Phil Scott (R) said that although we may all feel isolated at this time, we can, and should, connect with each other through technology, reading books, playing games and finding hobbies we enjoy. “We’re all in this together,” he said last week. All travelers coming to Vermont from out-of-state now must home-quarantine for 14 days, according to the Department of Health (see below). The Department of Health encouraged residents to use online resource such as healthvermont.gov/covid19 for the most upto-date information and guidance.
Lodging facilities are closed except for exemptions when supporting the state’s COVID-19 response. The Vermont State Police and local law enforcement will monitor lodging providers for compliance and work with the Attorney General’s Office on additional compliance measures if needed. Pictured: The Waybury Inn in East Middlebury was made famous by the 1980s TV sitcom “The Bob Newhart Show”. Public domain photo by N. Ravenel “If you need to go food shopping, to the
pharmacy or do other essential activities, keep
a distance of six feet between yourself and others. Six feet is about the length of a threeperson couch or a bed,” according to the state website noted above. “It’s ok to get fresh air, exercise outside and walk your dog, as long as you keep six feet away from other people.” At a press conference on March 30, Governor Scott announced new restrictions on travelers arriving in Vermont. Residents and non-residents coming to Vermont from outside the state – for anything other than an essential purpose – should home-quarantine for 14 days. Travel to Vermont by anyone from a COVID-19 “hot spot” is strongly discouraged at this time. Scott added that “travelers should follow the CDC’s Domestic Travel Advisory for New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, which advised residents of those states to refrain from nonessential domestic travel for 14 days.” Lodging facilities are closed except for exemptions when supporting the state’s COVID-19 response. Online lodging reservations are also suspended. The Vermont State Police and local law enforcement will monitor lodging providers for compliance and work with the Attorney General’s Office on additional compliance measures if needed. ■

Additional rapid reaction medical surge trailers containing material for 50 additional beds have been prepositioned across Vermont. In addition to the Vermont National Guard and health care leaders, the State is working to increase capacity through partnerships with home health providers, designated agencies, federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and more. “Rutland is proud to support these efforts to address increased medical need due to COVID-19,” said Claudio Fort, president and chief executive officer of Rutland Regional Medical Center. “Our teams are working closely with all of our health care partners to protect our staff and keep our communities safe.” Those with medical experience, or other health care background, and the ability to volunteer are needed to bolster the ranks of Vermont’s current health care workforce. The Vermont Medical Reserve Corps is seeking these qualified and experienced volunteers: Licensed and certified health care professionals; People with mental health, or other types of clinical or professional experience; H e a lt h c a r e a d m i n i s t r a t i v e

Emma Willard and the birth of the women’s education movement Middlebury educator made history By Lou Varricchio THE EAGLE
MIDDLEBURY | In the story of 19th century women’s rights and education, few pioneers match the accomplishments of Emma Willard. Although she was born in Berlin, Connecticut, in 1787, Vermonters, especially Middlebury residents, claim Emma as their own. And even though she left Middlebury and started a female seminary what would become the famous Emma Willard School in Troy, New York, she left an indelible mark on local history and education. According to Nina Baym’s study of the impact of Emma (Hart) Willard’s contribution to the development of American education, titled “Women and the Republic: Emma Willard’s Rhetoric of History”, her father was a humble, probably high I.Q. farmer who wanted all his children to learn to read and be freethinkers, especially on the subjects of God and religion. Early on, Emma’s father, Samuel Hart, recognized her developing love of books and learning about a variety of subjects. During the late 1700s and early 1800s, few women attended college or even graduated with basic diplomas. Most of a woman’s basic education was probably done at home with later, one-room schoolhouses emerging in New England rural areas. After chores, and around the Hart family table in Connecticut, nightly discussions included politics, natural philosophy, God and religion, even arithmetic. At age 15, Willard was enrolled in her first school, the Berlin Academy, in 1802,
Emma Willard House on the Middlebury College campus. In 1809, the same year 22-year-old Emma met and married 50-year-old Dr. John Willard, they built their famous two-and-a-half storied Federal-style brick house on Middlebury’s Main Street. The Willard house is now the home of the Middlebury College Admissions Office.

in her hometown. Within two years, the young polymath had outpaced the other students. By her 17th birthday she became the Connecticut’s first teenage teacher. By 1806, she became the youngest principal of the academy for one term. The following year, 1807, she accepted a teaching position at a school in Westfield, Massachusetts. Word of Emma’s teaching talents soon reached other academic officials in New England and she found herself accepting a position as principal of the Middlebury Female Seminary in Vermont starting in the fall of 1807. While in Middlebury, Emma learned that the former Addison County Grammar School had spun of a new institution, called Middlebury College, just seven years earlier. She recognized the importance of women’s education and dreamed about a unique school of her own designed especially for young girls.

Owner-broker Nancy D. Foster of Champlain Valley Properties, located at 70 Court St. in Middlebury, is hunkering down just like DeBisschop and Emilo. “It certainly is an interesting time. Real estate agents cannot show property—Governor’s orders. I think we are all working from home. I am on my computer and cell phone constantly trying to keep up with properties already under contract. Many things are having to be extended because of the COVID-19 situation,” Foster told the Eagle. “I am very hopeful that when we return to a more normal situation, real estate sales will be good again. But the job uncertainty is going to make purchasing a home very difficult for some people.” ■

“Stay at Home”...yes, but for how long? From the editor In case you missed it during last week’s COVID-19 pandemic news avalanche, Gov. Phil Scott issued an order clarifying the expiration date he set for two previous directives complying with his “Stay Home, Stay Safe” executive order until April 15 or beyond. According to a news release by the Office of the Governor, “this new order makes clear that any previous orders or directives that had an expiration date prior to April 15, are subject to the ‘Stay Home, Stay Safe’ order, which means they must follow the in-person operation closure guidance until April 15.”
This crisis can be extremely confusing if you’re not following the minute-by-minute blitzkrieg of COVID19 news coming at us both regionally and nationally. In fact, it can be mind numbing to follow that I am sure some folks must already be tuning out. No matter, we encourage readers to follow all of this or you may unintentionally run afoul of the law, especially those who are business owners. Regarding Governor Scott’s clarification last week, it was in regards to his orders about closing bars and restaurants for dine-in service, and the Department of Motor Vehicles for in-person operation, which would have otherwise expired on April 6. According to the April 3 news

release (penned by Scott aide Rebecca Kelley), “The April 15 expiration remains in place for the Governor’s declared State of Emergency and all addenda covering mass gatherings, postponing non-essential medical procedures, business closures and his ‘Stay Home, Stay Safe’ order. In consultation with the Vermont Department of Health, this time frame will be reevaluated as that date approaches. Today’s addendum also makes a technical clarification regarding non-congregate housing to meet FEMA reimbursement requirements for alternative housing arrangements already in place.” Sometimes, it’s easy to become cynical when it looks like this
pandemic is tailor-made for our government bureaucrats; they get to update and/or negate previous bulletins while making enough sweeping changes to our daily lives so that we end up all losing track of things in one big muddle. But fear not because to stay on top of this ever-changing health crisis, you can go online and be briefed on the latest of government directives.

Thoughts from behind the pressline
Hope and life after COVID-19 By Dan Alexander PUBLISHER
Publisher Ed Coats ed@addison-eagle.com
Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

We are all going through what seems like a disaster sci-fi movie from the 1970s. Nothing is like it ever was before. Our economy is all but shut down. Many are required to stay home and don’t go out unless its an emergency. Schools, events, entertainment venues, sports, and many businesses are closed, including churches, mosques, and synagogues at one of the holiest times of the year. We are now advised to wear face coverings in public for fear of catching or spreading the dreaded coronavirus. For the most part, our politicians are even trying to get along and work together, which is
scary in itself. For a significant portion of my life, this has been an eventful and holy week in celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. When I was young, going to church was an expected task. Having an excuse to not go was like getting a free pass. Now that we are being told by the church to stay away from gathering, it seems counter-intuitive given the crisis we face. Typically, when disasters occur, and concerns for death is imminent, are the times when we naturally turn to God for his saving grace and mercy. This pandemic will challenge each of us to consider the things most important in our lives. Family, friends, and protecting each other is taking precedent over the long-standing traditions of many religions faiths. This isn’t to say that God isn’t with us through this pandemic. I believe He is, but how each of us chooses to reflect on the meaning of this current
threat is personal. In the Book of Exodus, the Jewish faith celebrates the Passover when the Angel of Death was brought forth by Moses to convince the Egyptian pharaoh to release the captive Jews. We are told that many will die because of this new virus, yet each of us has willingly accepted the sacrifices of staying home while facing economic hardship. Others will work long hours while risking their own lives in the medical, public, or required service fields so that others will have a chance to survive. Those are the very definitions of having faith through self-sacrifice. In doing so, we provide hope to people here and around the globe. God asked no more than that from his Son, Jesus, when he willingly surrendered his life for the salvation of mankind. While we remain in this state of pause I wish you all good health and grieve for those lost to this virus. ■

From DIY FACE MASKS » pg. 1
Bead lacing or parachute cord: Cut them approximately 10” long (for adults). Instructions: For lacing or cord, follow same steps, substituting item for elastic. • Put right sides of cotton fabric together (use 2 pieces). Be sure that any fabric design is placed horizontally! • Cut fabric in one of two sizes: 9” X 6” (Adult) or 7 ½” X 5” (Child). • Starting at the center of the bottom edge, sew to the first corner, then stop. Sew the elastic with the edge out into the corner. A few stitches forward and back will hold this. • Sew to the second corner, stop, and bring the other end of the same elastic
to the corner and sew a few stitches forward and back. • Now sew across the top of the mask to the third corner, then stop. Again, sew one end of a piece of elastic with the edge out into the corner. • Sew to the fourth corner, stop, then sew in the other end of the same piece of elastic. • Sew across the bottom, leaving about 1 ½ - 2” open. Stop, cut the thread. Turn inside out. • Pin (evenly spaced) 3 tucks on each side of the mask. Make sure the tucks are in the same direction. • Sew around the edge of the mask twice (making sure to close the opening left at the bottom of the mask).
Your mask is finished. Video Tutorial (Elastic Loops) Watch a helpful video tutorial below for face masks with elastic loops: 2. Fabric tie masksMaterials needed: Two pieces of tightly woven cotton fabric (see above). Cut to 9” X 6” (adult) or 7 ½” X 5” (child). Why use a face mask during the current pandemic? This CDC photograph captured a sneeze in progress, revealing the plume of salivary droplets as they are expelled in a large cone-shaped array from this man’s open mouth, thereby illustrating the reason for buying or making a personal face mask.

Middlebury Agway: a correction Farmers are forbidden to spread manure on saturated ground that will runoff to surface water or ditches, or before major rain events. Pictured: Manure spreading in Addison County.
Photo by J. Kirk Edwards
Winter manure ban lifted for farmers this spring: If you still have capacity in your manure pit, wait for the optimal weather and field conditions for spreading. Do not spread manure on saturated ground that will runoff to surface water or ditches, or before major rain events. After spreading any nutrient (liquid or solid manure, compost, or fertilizer) be sure to keep accurate records of the manure or nutrients applied. Individual field conditions will vary significantly across the State from one region to the next, and farmers need to assess their fields carefully and take action to ensure that they are in compliance with the RAPs and are protecting Vermont’s waterways. Vermont’s winter manure spreading ban, which prohibits spreading between Dec. 15 and April 1, began in 1995. For more information about the RAPs, the winter manure spreading ban, or for recommendations regarding early season spreading practices, please visit: http://agriculture.vermont.gov/RAP ■
“Vermont smells more like Vermont this week” From Staff & News Reports THE EAGLE
MIDDLEBURY | Vermont smells more like Vermont this week. The state’s winter manure spreading ban ended April 1, but with another wet March having brought challenging field conditions to many parts of Vermont, the Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Food and Markets (VAAFM) is issuing a spring stewardship reminder to Vermont farmers and Custom Manure Applicators. The Required Agricultural Practices (RAPs) outline that manure cannot be applied to fields that are frozen or snow-covered, nor to fields that are saturated, likely to runoff, or are conducive to any other off-site movement regardless of nutrient management plan recommendations. VAAFM has the following additional reminders
By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
MIDDLEBURY | The Eagle would like to clarify and correct several items noted in a recent story about Middlebury Agway remaining open during the current pandemic. A typo in the first paragraph rendered COVID-19 as “COVID-10” which is incorrect; this error was ours. A new update to the story, according to Middlebury Agway’s Business Manager Jennifer Jacobs, is that while the store is allowing customers to shop in-store, management is requiring that they adhere to the CDC’s guidelines
of remaining six feet apart from other customers and store employees. The Middlebury store is also limiting the number of customers in the store at any one time. Marks on the floor are in place to help remind customers of the six feet rule near the checkout. In addition, the photograph used by the Eagle showed a Facebook posted view of the store interior that was taken n 2015; we regret not being clearer as to the date of the photo since it did not accurately reflect current conditions. The accompanying photo was taken last week and more accurately shows what social distancing in the store is like currently. We regret any confusion and misunderstanding. ■
