Proctor’s Vermont Marble Museum receives award By Joe Milliken
newmarketpress@denpubs.com PROCTOR — The Vermont Marble Museum here recently won the prestigious Omni Intermedia Award for its documentary about the history of marble used for the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers in Arlington National Cemetery. The international media Omni Intermedia Award is given to outstanding media productions created within the previous three years. The local museum won the Silver Award in the entertainment category for its video creation, “America’s Eternal Flame: The Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier,” an 11-minute documentary produced by independent filmmaker Kurt Supancic as part of an exhibit honoring the famous tomb. Last fall, the museum put together the exhibit and created the documentary as part of the presentation. Supancic, who lives in Colorado but is a Proctor- native, is also a freelance writer, video editor and gaffer and has worked in screenwriting, commercial video production, short films and video editing. The documentary script was written by Catherine Miglorie, who is the director of the Vermont Marble Museum and also writes a weekly column for the Rutland Herald dubbed “Marble Minutes.” The film focuses on the history of the marble and transporting it from a marble slab to the tomb by railroad. The marble used from the tomb actually came from a quarry in Colorado, which was owned by the Vermont Marble Co., and was shipped by rail to Proctor for carving. From there, it was shipped to Arlington. “The Vermont Marble Museum is very pleased and proud to have won this award, ...Turn to page 9 to read more on the Marble Museum

KILLINGTON Ñ Aspen East Ski Shop here recently hosted the town premiere of a film about extreme skiing, snowboarding and other mountain sports on nationwide tour. Shown at The Summit Lodge, “The Story” was broadcast as part of Ski Channel’s Film Tour. The showing was partially sponsored by Killington’s municipal Economic Development and Tourism Department. Aspen East is an awardwinning ski shop known for its products and services by ski companies nationwide, has hosted numerous local author book signings including Karen Lorentz and Linda Greenlaw, the captain of the sister ship of the Andrea Gail, which was featured in the book and movie ‘The Perfect Storm,” and Reeve Lindbergh, the youngest daughter of aviator Charles Lindbergh. “The Story” is a family-orientated film featuring Lindsey Vonn, Bode Miller, and XGames star Bobby Brown and was shot on location from Mount Everest, Nepal, Chile, Argentina and the Antarctic Peninsula. The movie takes the viewer on a trip down steep, first-descent slopes and visits to first-class ski resorts such as Deer Valley, Jackson Hole and Mammoth Mountain. “The film tells the story of incredible people doing incredible things in incredible places,” said Steve Bellamy in a recent press release. Bellamy is the CEO of Atonal Sports, which owns the Ski Channel. “The reason we made the film is because the stories of these athletes are so good that they just have to be told. Such a large portion of skiers give up everything to do what they do. Even though the action in the film is as gnarly as anything you will ever see, it is the stories of these athletes that really captivate me.” Thrilling highlights of epic skiing, snowboarding and river surfing are exhilarating as the film looks into what drives the athletes who devote their lives to the snowy mountains. It is the first film shot for the Ski Channel’s first national movie tour. A second film was then featured titled “Shane and the McConkeys,” a documentary about the life of Shane McConkey, a skiing pioneer who died during a wingsuit ski base jump in the Italian Dolomites in the shoot in 2009.
