Augmenting Clark’s discussion will be videos about Vermont’s maple sugaring industry, which will be shown continuously throughout the day. Fred Bradley will demonstrate how early maple sugar makers boiled sap in a cast iron kettle over an open fire. “Outdoors on the green, in between the historical society building and the church, we’ll have a tripod setup that shows how people made maple syrup,� David Wright, vice president of the Middletown Springs Historical Society, said. “People used to boil in the woods. They would set up camp and stay because the boiling process could take a long time.� Wright said the historical society, which was founded in

1969, has been hosting the maple festival for more than two-and-a-half decades. “It’s one of two big fundraisers, the other being the strawberry festival,� Wright said. Besides examining the history of the maple sugaring industry, the festival will also feature a silent auction of items donated by local merchants and craftspeople, as well as maple sap buckets painted and decorated by students from area schools. In addition there will be children’s activities, raffles featuring more than 50 items, a variety of maple desserts including “sugar on snow� and maple cotton candy and maple syrup for purchase. Admission to the festival is free.

Throughout the day, of course, members of the community are encouraged to pick up a “sap map� and tour various area sugar houses to see how maple is produced.

Additionally, Green Mountain College will offer tours of its biomass plant at 12, 1 and 2 p.m., and the Poultney Public Library will hold a story time for children at 11 a.m. The day will conclude with a free, maple-themed community dinner from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Foundation Church in East Poultney; all money and food donations will go to the local food shelf. “This is going to be a great year as always,� Broughton said.

/HWWHUV ARC in Rutland dances are important ARC Rutland Area, an organization that works with citizens with Developmental Disabilities and their families wants to say, “Thank you Rutland Lodge of Elks #345 for again having sponsored a Valentine Barbecue and Dance for approximately 90 members, family and friends of ARC Rutland Area on Sunday, Feb. 16.� We would like to thank Brian Gaura, Carolyn Ravenna, Pat Farley, Dave Sears and all other helpers of the Elks for making this party happen, from decoration to cooking. If you see our food servers: Donna Gillen, Shannon Sherer and Denise Joyal; or beverage servers: Bob Poquette and Terry Stevens; be sure to tip your hat to them as well. Thank You all for giving of your time. Our DJ, John Saltis’ Penguin Production created a fun atmosphere for dancing. The continued dedication and support of the Elks is greatly appreciated. Socializing at the dances, brings health to the body and mind. The Valentine’s BBQ Dance would not have happened without the Elks sponsorship. The hall was decorated lovely and brought a great sense of care to the day. Having an opportunity to dress up, go dancing and say “I love you� was a wonderful Valentine’s Day gift. Elks, we applaud your community giving. ARC Rutland Area continues to advocate for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families by providing five dances/events a year; a representative payee program to help individuals with their finances so they stay in stable living conditions; advocacy support for adult individuals, parents, and

siblings of children with disabilities, where folks can speak up for their needs; and resources and referrals for anyone calling for information. We are thankful to those who voted yes to ARC Rutland Area on the March, it will ensure we can continue offering all these supports to individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. Some people believe holding a party geared towards people with developmental disabilities is segregation, but when you see the room full of Red, White and Pink, and people laughing and dancing and so joyous to be with their friends, I believe differently. I believe at that moment, this group of individuals was with their friends doing what they wanted to be doing; having fun in their community. ARC Rutland Area members, families and friends were acting on a desire to be with their peers, so we, with the Elk’s help, kindly set up the opportunity to do so. There are many reasons why these dances are important, but the one that stands out for me is when a self advocate said, “without these dances we wouldn’t have anything.� Here people are able to practice their social skills, make new friends, or get reacquainted with old ones. They are able to work on their Circle of Supports and talk about their goals. Even if some don’t dance, they had to move to get to the hall. This activity has various aspects that are helpful to a person with developmental disabilities’ life, it is not “just� a dance. Call 775-1370 to learn more about ARC Rutland Area. Lisa S. Lynch Executive Director

Castleton Seniors thank area residents Castleton Community Seniors, Inc. extends a sincere thank you to the residents of Castleton, Fair Haven and Hubbardton who approved the Community Center appropriations for 2013-14. The Castleton Community Center helps seniors and disabled residents of western Rutland County remain independent. Over 4,800 rides were given last year for doctor’s appointments, dialysis, adult day care, therapy, food shopping and senior meals. In addition, 1,408 meals were served to seniors from Castleton, Fair Haven, Hubbardton and surrounding towns. The Center walking trail and

exercise programs promote healthy living and our Wellness Center features programs designed to promote healthy aging for older adults. Educational and recreational activities help keep our seniors active and improve their quality of life. Our summer camp for children provides a quality educational and recreational activity for local children. The Center is supported through town appropriations, donations, grants and the hard work of our members and volunteers. We are grateful to all who support our mission of service. Jo Ann Riley Director

Twig remembers

Mary Bruten In 1955 my dad had been working at the Rutland Herald while at the same time running a small print shop with his brother out of my Uncle John’s cellar. The opportunity to purchase the newspaper he had worked at while he was in high school arose and he jumped at it. It was two newspapers and a lot of printing to do, so he asked for help and I jumped at it. Every Wednesday I would hitchhike over to help put out The Fair Haven Era and The Poultney Herald and every week I would try out a new restaurant. Calvi’s Dairy Bar,

town most of your life, you get to see the people go through their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and like the last time I saw Mary at the Laundromat a few months back, she was aging gracefully in her 80s. God bless, Mary Bruten. Now one year from now that first Jack Morris “westernâ€? will turn 60 years. I guess Willy Nelson really knew what he was talking about back in 1959 when he wrote—“well it’s been so long now, since you left me, but it seems like yesterday, ain’t it funny how time slips away‌.â€?

Carbotti’s, Cliff Dockum’s (where Wooden Soldier is) and finally the famous “Western Sandwich� at Jack Morris’ Little Skinny Main Street Eatery (where Chris Howe’s law office is). The sandwich was as advertised—double egged. Plenty of ham and onion, and so thick that you had to trim the edges so you could handle it. Put that up against a tall chocolate milk and you had a meal fit for a young king. Add a cute, petite waitress and you had the answer to an impressionable 12-year-old’s dream. When you live in the same

Don Pritchard Now here was another one of those young men who answered the call of their country in the early 1940s after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.

Young men flocked to the recruiting offices to join the effort. Don wanted to receive the proper combat training, so he joined the marines. His proudest moment came

when the war was finally over and he came home to Poultney in his dress blue U.S. Marine uniform. May God be with you, Don Pritchard.

The Caldecott Awardwinning picture book is about a very odd and magical day in an ordinary town. “Studying this wordless picture book not only enhanced our students’ visual literacy skills, but it allowed our entire learning community to enjoy a great story together,� School

Librarian Kelly Ahlfeld said. Mettawee Literacy Specialist Kim Donaldson agreed. “Our readers also honored the inspirational children’s book author Dr. Seuss with this all school read and marked the mid-way point in this year’s ‘Books and Beyond: The Art of Reading program,’� she said. The two provided suggestions ahead of time to teachers in order to guide visual, literacy strategy discussions in each class. “It’s not unusual to walk into a classroom and see students reclining with books, wrapped up in a cozy quilt with a great

Organization seeks Fair Haven host families PAX Community Coordinator Kimberly Eckhardt invites local families to “Share Your America� with a high school exchange student from one of 70 European, South American, Asian, or African countries during the upcoming school year. Sponsored by PAX-Program of Academic Exchange (PAX), these students arrive to the U.S. in August, and will be attending school at Fair Haven Union High School. PAX students are between 15 and 18 years old, have studied English for at least three years, and are motivated to learn more about the U.S. by attending high school and living with a host family. PAX students are eager to experience American activities—backyard barbecues, birthday celebrations, and holidays—with their host families. They are covered by comprehensive medical insurance and have their own spending money for incidentals. Volunteer host families provide PAX students with a bed, a

quiet place to study, a seat at the dining table, a warm and supportive home environment, and encouragement to engage in everyday American life. With their exchange students, host families experience such activities through fresh eyes while also learning about the exchange student’s country and culture. All types of families— single parents, young couples, retirees, and parents with teenagers—are welcome to host. Founded in 1990, PAX is a non-profit educational organization and one of a select few U.S. Department of State designated Exchange Visitor Program’s chosen to participate in its prestigious U.S. government-sponsored FLEX, YES, and A-SMYLE programs. Each year, more than 1,100 teenagers visit the U.S. as PAX exchange students. For more information, contact Kimberly Eckhardtat 802824-3792, via email at keckhardt08@gmail.com, or visit www.pax.org.

March 9-15, 2014 What has 59 million living American alumnae and is still going strong after 102 years? Girl Scouting! On March 12, more than 12,300 Girl Scouts from across New Hampshire and Vermont join Girl Scout sisters nationwide in celebrating the 102nd birthday of Girl Scouting in the U.S. For more than a century, Girl Scouts has stayed true to founder Juliette Gordon Low’s vision of building girls of courage, confidence, and character. Girl Scout Week begins with Girl Scout Sunday on March 9, and ends with Girl Scout Sabbath on March 15. “During Girl Scout Week, we renew our commitment to making the world a better place,� said Patricia Mellor, chief executive officer of Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains. “We know that if a commitment to helping others is learned early in life, it leads to a lifelong commitment.� Locally, girls from Girl Scout troop 30439 have been busy these last couple month’s earning badges, selling cookies and making memories. “The girls have been working hard at the cookie booths,� Troop leader Stacey Dean said. “They are learning skills like money management, giving correct change and counting money. With these skills they earn themselves financial badges.� Dean has been troop leader for the last four years and has seen the girl’s progress more and more every year,

along with the number of girls in the troop increasing. “We started with about 6-8 girl’s and now we have 14,� Dean said. “They have come a long way, they are really eager to learn new things such as group participation skills.� In 1912, Juliette Gordon Low founded Girl Scouting in Savannah, GA., with one troop of 18 girls. She believed that all girls should have the chance to develop physically (she hung sheets around a court so girls could play basketball in bloomers), mentally (through business education and civic service), and spiritually (girls still earn faith awards). From its inception, the movement taught girls the art of hospitality, civic and community service, kindness to animals, money management, and how to survive in the woods. Before women had the right to vote, Girl Scouts could earn an Aviation Badge. Now, a Girl Scout has piloted the Space Shuttle! Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains serves more than 12,300 girls thanks to 5,100 trained and dedicated volunteers. See www.girlscoutsgwm.org or call 888-474-9686 to join, volunteer, sign up as an alumna—or see where to buy cookies, while they last! Troop 30439 meets on Tuesday’s in the spring at 6 p.m. at the Fair Haven Legion and anyone interested is welcome to join.

Morris named RAVNAH hospice director Rutland Area Visiting Nurse Association & Hospice (RAVNAH) and Rutland Regional Medical Center (RRMC) have hired Juanita Morris, MSN, APRN-BC as Director of Palliative and Hospice Services. Morris will be responsible for overall management and oversight of the RAVNAH and RRMC Hospice and Outpatient Palliative Care program. In addi-XDQLWD 0RUULV tion, she will serve as the RAVNAH liaison to the State and National Hospice & Palliative Care Organizations, and other local, State and Federal entities. Morris has over 20 years combined experience in nursing, counseling, and healthcare management. She brings with her a comprehensive diagnostic and clinical background in multiple specialties, including hospice, palliative, primary

care, geriatric, surgical, cardiac, and psychiatric care. Prior to RAVNAH, Morris was a nurse practitioner simultaneously at North Adams Commons and Sweet Brook of Williamstown Rehabilitation and Nursing Center, both in Massachusetts, where she provided hospice and palliative care to patients, collaborated with visiting nurses, and facilitated patient transitions within and between health care settings. In her new role, Morris will use her demonstrated leadership in the community to manage, market and grow the combined Hospice and Palliative Care programs. “Juanita brings energy, experience and a unique perspective to RAVNAH, and we are thrilled to have her join the team� says RAVNAH CEO Ron Cioffi. “Hospice and Palliative

care are extremely important in the spectrum of health and are greatly beneficial to the well-being of our patients. With Juanita’s strong background in hospice care, she and her team will be there to provide a broad range of support services to our patients and their families during what can be a trying and difficult time.� Morris received her Masters of Science/Adult Nurse Practitioner from Russell Sage College in New York, her Masters of Social Work from the State University of New York, her Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from North Adams State College in Massachusetts, her Associates of Science in Nursing from Castleton State College, and her Associates of Science in Human Services from Berkshire Community College in Massachusetts. A long-time resident of Manchester, Vt., Morris enjoys spending time with her husband and daughter, reading, traveling, and is looking forward to taking up yoga in the near future.

and enjoy towards the cost of your wedding!

All you have to do is fill out the official entry form below and mail it in. One lucky person will receive $250 in gift certificates to use at any of the advertisers in Manchester Newspapers’ 2014 Bridal Book. The Bridal Book is available throughout the region right now. Deadline for entry is Friday, April 25, 2014. The drawing will be held on Monday, April 28, 2014.

The conference explores pressing global issues and considers possible solutions by initiating conversations that foster collaborative relationships and innovative ideas. The goal is to empower students to take action locally, regionally, and globally. The conference will be followed by an evening of student presentations related to Global Studies and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) topics. Both the conference and the follow-up presentations will complement national initiatives and provide high school students with the opportunity to explore pressing global issues and consider possible solutions. The international GIN organization bases their conferenc-

es on the book High Noon: 20 Global Problems, 20 Years to Solve Them, by Jean-Francois Rischard, which outlines the most urgent issues that people must address. While many of these GIN conferences take place around the world, this is only the second one to take place in Vermont and is one of only a few occurring in the United States this year. The keynote speaker is Kristen Carlson, formerly the senior political reporter at WCAX and currently director of media at Green Mountain Power. Students will then participate in multiple breakout sessions, volunteer opportunities, and a closing ceremony. For more information, visit global-issues-network.org/rutland2014.
