Lights, camera....action! Local residents to shoot film in area A pair of local residents have teamed up to write a short film based in Vermont. An original short film, “Van Money,” is an offbeat, shenanigan-filled, wild ride that celebrates friendship, light-hearted skullduggery, and the creators’ vastly beautiful home state of Vermont. Writers Katharine Maness and Timothy Velsor, each native Vermonters, as well as longtime friends and artists, are excited about their screenplay collaboration that blends the genres of comedy, action, romance, and drama in one fell swoop with a clever plot and dynamic characters. “It will all be filmed in Vermont,” said

Maness. “It’s important that we’re getting to film here. We want to show that there’s good art outside of L.A. and N.Y. In the movie, Vermont is a character, not just a setting.” The partners will start filming on Feb. 27 in and around Winhall, Stratton, and Manchester. The two describe “Van Money” as a heist movie with a lot of heart. “Our mischievous gang of thieves sets out to do one last job that will set them up for better things in life, but when one of them is forced to confront his tortured

Fish Continued from front page to change, based on ticket sales, but it is projected that the two highest paying species – Northern Pike and Bass – will both hold a cash prize of $250. Other fish species include crappies, yellow perch, chain pickerel and brown bullhead. The scales will be closing for the weekend at 3 p.m. on Sunday, which is a strict deadline, so anglers are reminded not to dilly-dally around when making their way back to the store. “That means the fish have to be in by 3 p.m.” said Stephanie Bartlett, who helps her boyfriend Jody Gale coordinate the event. With temperatures plummeting below zero on a few occasions this week, the ice is perfect for ice-fishers.

“The ice is pretty good. Thankfully it got cold when it did.” Bartlett explained. The amount of snow that the area saw early this week could have put a damper on ice development, but the frigid temperatures have made up for that. This year’s derby takes place in memory of Tom Cram, who was very devoted to the derby and the outdoors in general. This is only the second year in the event’s 22 year history that Cram will not be able to supply his assistance. “It’s in memory of Tom Cram, he was really big into the youth hunting and fishing around here,” Bartlett said. The Lake Hortonia Derby is the second installment of a four part fishing derby series in the greater Lakes Region. The Lake Champlain Down Home Fishing Derby was the first, the Lake Hortonia Derby is second, the Lake Bomoseen Fishing Derby will be third, and the series concludes with

the Great Benson Fishing Derby. “They started doing it as a whole series a couple years ago and it works out pretty good,” Bartlett said. “It gets people to buy tickets.” The overall winner of the four derbies will take home a hefty $500 cash prize. Scoring is based on a points system, with a first place fish earning five points, second place fish earning three points, and third place fish earning one point. In addition, each ticket purchased earns the angler another point. Tickets for the derby are $20 and can be purchased at Tom’s Bait Shop in Castleton, Ed’s Bait Shop in Benson, Dave’s Bait Shop in Sudbury, or Lake Hortonia Country Store. Kids under the age of 12 fish for free. More information on the ice fishing derby can be found by calling the Lake Hortonia Country Store.

Movie Continued from front page past, obstacles pile up in their way,” said Maness. The script features a trio of thieves who plan to do “one last job” before giving up their criminal ways. Their plan is to steal a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon, then sell it on Craiglist for $1,800 “or best offer.” The van in question is owned by the arch-enemy of one of the characters. In real life, Maness and Velsor found the Vanagon for the film in Manchester – by searching Craigslist. The van was named “Betsy.” “Betsy has been a Vermont van her entire life,” said Maness. “She was first purchased from Kinney Motors in

Woodchuck Continued from front page breads, pies, cookies, cakes, cupcakes, apricot squares, chili and maple baked beans. The church will also be selling maple syrup, maple sugar cakes, maple pepper and tasty jams. The cookbook “Temptations from the Pews” will be available for sale, as well as RADA cutlery. After browsing the crafts, guests can enjoy watching the challenging firemen’s games set up by the West Pawlet Fire Department. Visiting fire companies show up to compete in various scenarios, which are different each year. “We change it up a bit every year,” organizer Dave Hosley of the West Pawlet Fire

Rutland. We’re her third owners.” She noted that the “Van Money” script references several classic heist movies, including “The French Connection” and “Fast & Furious.” Their goal is complete the film by late 2015, and submit it to several short film festivals for 2016. Maness said the plan is to keep the total length of the film around 25 minutes. While she is currently deeply involved in writing and production, Maness said that acting is her first love. “I wanted to be an actor since I was seven or eight years old,” she said. “I started my own production company because of a lack of interesting female roles.” Her partner Tim Velsor’s passion is film production. “Tim has longed to be a film-

maker for years,” said Maness. The two have been friends since middle school. “Van Money” is being produced by Who’s Asking Productions, founded in 2013 by Maness and Samantha Leonard, of East Dorset, who is a 2007 Burr and Burton graduate. Leonard participated in BBA theatre productions during her two years there. She went on to graduate from Vassar in 2011 with a B.A. in Anthropology and Sociology, and a Minor in Hispanic Studies. Maness, of Pawlet, is a 2006 graduate of the Long Trail School (Dorset, Vt.) where she was a devoted member of the school’s theatre group, Actors Anonymous, throughout her six years there. After graduating, Maness moved to New York City to pursue acting, and

Department said. He noted that anywhere from five to eight fire companies usually compete for plaques and a Telescope chair for first prize. Rupert has won the competition more than any other company, and has also participated every year since the event’s inception. Companies also come from as far as Benson, Dorset, and

Fort Edward, N.Y. While West Pawlet would like the other fire departments to register in advance, many show up that day unannounced. “It’s a fun afternoon,” Hosley said. “You never know who the competition is going to be. It’s a way to get guys together who usually only see each other when things are bad.”

Coaches vs. Cancer event a success

Registration for the Great Benson Fishing Derby is now open. The event, which is sponsored by the Fair Haven Rotary Club, will be held Feb. 21 and 22 on all Vermont waters. Besides fishing, the event features a number of raffles, including a “cold hard cash giveaway.” Anglers can register for the event by completing the form at the bottom of this page and mailing it to Fair Haven Rotary, PO Box 606, Bomoseen, Vt. There are three registration options: For $25 interested participants can sign up the derby, raffle and cold hard cash giveaway; for $20 they can register for the raffle and cold hard cash

The Poultney Coaches vs. Cancer event was a resounding success. The winter sports team of Poultney High School Coaches vs. Cancer weekend was held on Jan. 23 and 24 at Poultney High School in Poultney to benefit the American Cancer Society The games raised over $4,000. “I am so proud of the student-athletes and how they rallied together to help with such a great cause. It is amazing how they came together for support of Coaches vs. Cancer and realize that they can make a difference, even coming from a small school. The atmosphere and emotions that were displayed all weekend were the epitome of Poultney Pride,” stated Assistant Principal, Joe DeBonis. “The amount of money we raised is unheard of for a

giveaway; and children younger than 12 years can sign up for the child’s fishing derby and raffle for only $5. Interested participants can choose to have their ticket stub mailed to them, pick them up at derby headquarters at Crystal Beach or if they aren’t fishing, arrange to be contacted if they win a raffle prize.

Coaches vs. Cancer game and well beyond what we could have hoped for,’’ varsity boys basketball coach Alphonso Howlett said. This year the event hosted six games pairing r teams against Green Mountain Union High School, Fair Haven High School, and Manchester Elementary School. “We were truly competitors on the court but we certainly worked together off the court to raise money for the event”, said player Kaleigh Brown. Poultney’s opposing teams helped raise $1,500 in support of the ACS. The players rallied around the Coaches vs. Cancer event because one in two men and one in three women will be touched by cancer. “That is a huge percentage of our community and this event is just one small way in giving back,” said player, Alex

Wade. In addition to supporting lifesaving American Cancer Society research, education and advocacy, the money raised by the Coaches vs. Cancer event will be used to support patient service programs. Programs such as Road to Recovery, which provides free round-trip transportation for cancer patients to doctor visits and treatments, and Reach to Recovery, which helps breast cancer patients cope with their diagnosis, treatment, and recovery, will benefit from the Coaches vs. Cancer game. The Coaches vs. Cancer program empowers coaches, their teams, schools and communities to join the fight against cancer. Since it’s inception, more than $87 million has been raised to help the American Cancer Society’s mission.

The top pike, bass and trout each earn $500, the second for each earns $250, the third for each earns $125 and the fourth largest for each earns $75. “They have to have their fish in by 3:15 p.m.” said event organizer Stan Patch.

The Castleton Lions Club boasts “everything we raise goes back into the community,” and this derby is no exception.

The Castleton Connection

A conversation with Pam Rampone, Part 2 By Joe Mark Back home in Clevedon, she found that every house was required by law to have blackout curtains, and England was full of newly arrived foreigners. C-3 boats—“old banana boats,” she called them—continuously delivered war refugees from Antwerp. Her only sibling, a brother two years older than she, had become a bombardier with the RAF. He made it home safe. With her strong math skills—“I was a very good mathematician”—and almost all the men at the front, she easily got a job in accounting at the gas company. “When the man came back at the end of the war, I gave him his job back.” That’s when she discovered that, compared to him, she’d been paid “peanuts!” Housing was scarce, so she and her mother moved into a rustic gamekeeper’s cottage on an isolated hill outside of town. With no electricity and only oil lamps for lighting, it was at least a mile “off the beaten path.” Pam recalls walking through the woods to the road and then biking to work at the gas company. She met Al when she was 17. He was a medic and briefly on leave in England. The Red Cross threw a big party that

they both attended. After he him through the bars. returned to France, they wrote each other. Before long, he got another leave, a “seven-day pass,” and took the boat to Southampton to make a surprise visit to Clevedon. Arriving at “the Keeper’s Lodge” late one evening, he threw pebbles at her window. She looked out, and there he was. She said, “Where’d you come from?” He said, “France. Will you marry me?” She said yes. Before the end of his leave, they not only married but also squeezed in a two-day honeymoon at a B&B. Unfortunately, having missed the Pam, during her days on the Parole Board boat that was to take him back to France, Al was now AWOL. “He is such Six months later, after an a chicken.” Afraid of getting awful 14-day voyage on the SS caught by the MPs, “He’d dodge Zebulon B. Vance, another into every hallway or alley to “banana boat,” she arrived in avoid them.” Of course, that Staten Island and was met by just made him easier to notice, her new mother-in-law. and quickly he was picked up They lived with Al’s parents by the MPs and thrown in the on Long Island before moving “jug.” Pam was allowed to kiss to Dayton, Ohio. Pam got a job

as a bookkeeper at Standard Register Company. On returning to the East Coast, Al began a master’s program at Adelphi; Pam started having babies. Four were born in New York. They came to Castleton after Al accepted a teaching position at the college. Initially they lived on Main Street, where babies five and six were born. When the Prices decided to sell their Frisbee Hill Road home, Pam and Al jumped at the chance to own some land. Over the years they’ve had horses, sheep, goats, llamas, and a donkey. Seven years after marrying, as soon as she was eligible, Pam renounced her loyalty to Great Britain’s King and Queen and became a U.S. citizen. Once all the kids were through school, Pam began a life of civic engagement. As she puts it, “I started to mess around in the Republican Party.” She was business manager for Dick Snelling’s gubernatorial campaign and considers former Governor Jim

Douglas a good friend. A volunteer for the Vermont Children’s Aid Society, she was named to the Vermont Parole Board, where she served 12 years, including six years as chair. In 1986 she was president of the New England Council on Crime and Delinquency and organized the group’s 1987 conference. She was also appointed to a committee that evaluated candidates for judgeships. In the mid-80s, she became one of the first female members of the Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services. This required travel to bases all over the country and frequent meetings at the Pentagon. Importantly, Pam chaired DACOWITS’s subcommittee on the utilization of women in the military. In that capacity she testified before the Armed Services Committee and was instrumental in increasing opportunities for women. That’s an impressive list of contributions, Pam! Congratulations and thanks. Joe Mark and his family moved to Castleton in 1980, when he took a position at Castleton State College. He served as dean of students and then, for 28 years, as academic dean before retiring in 2012.

TIME IS ALMOST UP.

The Mettawee Community School held its annual National Geographic “School Level” Geography Bee on Thursday, Jan. 29, and West Pawlet’s Ben Park was named the winner. Participating for his third time, Park earned the title of 2015 National Geographic Bee winner at the Mettawee Community School and a chance at a $50,000 college scholarship. The school bee at which students answered questions on geography, was the first round in the 27th annual National Geographic Bee. Mark Rampone, who oversaw the event, said that Mettawee has competed in the National Geographic competition for 17 years. The National Geographic Bee is a competition open to students in grades four through eight to encourage learning about the world’s peoples and places. At Mettawee, a PreK-6 elementary school, over 50 fourth, fifth, and sixth graders competed in the classroom rounds. The top finishers from those rounds, answering six or seven questions correctly, went on to compete in the school level Final Round. This demanding Final Round competition was held on the stage in Mettawee’s multipurpose room before the whole school and numerous parents. Kelly Ahlfeld, school librarian, read out the questions and moderated the event. Amy Helmetag, MCS’ art teacher acted as the time keeper.

Mark Rampone and Principal Brooke DeBonis congratulate the top three finishers in the 2015 school level National Geographic Bee: Audra Marcus, second place (L), Champion Ben Park andLucy Farrell, third place. (Photo by: Kimberly Donaldson) Two examples of National Geographic Bee questions were: International - “To walk in Lisbon’s Alfama district and to stay at a beach resort in the Algarve, you would travel to what country?” Answer: Portugal; National - “The first successful airplane flight at Kill Devil Hills, is commemorated on the quarter of which state - North Carolina or Iowa?” Mettawee’s eight competitors, from grades 4-6, were very focused. After nearly an hour of questions, like the ones above, and the final correct answer given, Park had won for a third time. Audra Marcus was the runner-up and Lucy Farrell came in third. MCS Principal Brooke DeBonis congratulated the contestants and with Rampone

awarded certificates immediately following the competition. School champions, like Park, will now take a placement test to gain admittance to the State Level Bee. Up to 100 of the top scorers on the placement test in each state will then be eligible to compete in their home state on March 27. Vermont’s State Level Geographic Bee will be held at Middlebury College. Mettawee Community School Final Round Participants: Ben Park grade 6, Audra Marcus grade 6, Lucy Farrell grade 5, Tristan Hyatt grade 5, Willow Hughes-Muse grade 5, Emily Bell grade 4, Andrew Jaarsma grade 4 and Tim Southworth grade 4. Finalist Jade Marantz grade 6 was absent.

Twig remembers

Martha Towers Professor Roger Brown, walks into the CSC snack bar and comes directly to our table. He is looking for guys who have time left on their G.I. bill benefits to help him start up a new Associates Degree Program in public administration. There are six vets at the table and four who qualify. Now, Roger Brown was a pretty special guy to us vets. He was always going out of his way to help us and direct us to help. He was this nice warm little guy that you liked to be around. He got two more guys and in the fall we were off and running. First semester was all classroom. Second semester found me as Assistant Town Manager to Peter Clavelle in Castleton. If ever a question that had to do with history in Castleton, they would always call in Martha Towers. Well, I got in the habit of that and if I was writing an article for the Promoter and I needed a little

help on some Castleton info, I’d go out and ask Martha. Fifteen years later I am painting houses and I somehow become part-time handyman to caretaker to handling finances for a failing old lady named Marcella Jackson. One day I knocked on the door – no answer. I called around the yard – no answer. Now she had a dog (wolfhound) with these long jowls that I called Wolfgang Von Breedakoff. He scared the hell out of me so bad that I carried a hammer in my belt when I was painting. If I saw him out in the yard, I’d let him know I was ready and I’d sing my own parody of a song from the musical “Hair”. I’d sing – “Wolfgang Von Breedakoff you’re a dirty little snot, come and see my hammer” and he’d go off about his business. So with no answer, I went and fetched my hammer and went in. And there resting peacefully in her favorite chair a rocker (that would sometimes

rock on its own – I still have it) was Marcella. No pulse, so I ran to my neighbor E.A. Mallory’s to see what to do. Cliff Camp (who purchased Mallory’s Funeral Home) was out of town so he called Owen McShane who was covering for Cliff. Owen and I were friends from a Bethel family connection years ago. We zipped her up into a black bag and carted her out. You know what they say about dead weight. Now that little lady weighed about 85 lbs. Yet it felt like my end of the bag was almost 100. I had been in contact with her niece from Rhode Island for about six months and she and I made the arrangements. I gave the eulogy and told just what I had learned about life from this lovely little lady and I gave three examples. 1) I’m painting a fence and over in the corner I hear “Marvelous, wonderful, why they should have been architects.” Oh, oh, she’s losing it! I go over and she

shows me this beautiful cobweb (a painter’s enemy). The way the sun was hitting it brought out this stunning array of colors. The old art teacher begins pointing out the perfect dimensions of the structure. 2) Marcella would sit on her steps, copy the rill of a bird and match every call and then on to the next bird. I’ve always been a whistler so I gave it a whirl. Sure enough, I had a new game. One day she came out and said “Why Twig, I didn’t know that you could talk to the birds.” I said, “Neither did I ‘til right now.” 3) When I first started working there I would hear sounds “tap tap, chip, chip, tunk, tunk.” One day I followed and there she was with a hammer and home tool (spoons, knives and whatever) chipping away at this huge piece of Dorset soapstone that Junior Poalino had sawed in half and hefted up onto an old sewing machine stand and she and God were fashioning these lovely

goddess stone “Penguins.” Now where in the world was this little Fair Haven guy going to witness that back in the late 1970’s? When I finished my tribute, the funeral director announced that three ladies who were students of hers in the 1930’s would like to render a vocal version of an old song about a “Bird in Flight” from the turn of the century. Martha had called and asked and I said, “Yes, and I have the perfect spot for it.” What came next was just astounding. With not a spring chicken in the bunch, the cracking of those aged chords with a bit of stage nerves gave the affect of three rounded cherubs, atop the golden gate beckoning their friend and drama teacher to “the land of pleasant dreams.” Thanks again and God bless Martha Towers.

Children invited to Pember Library Derby winners announced By Derek Liebig Children are invited to discover the Pember Library in Granville, N.Y., this Saturday. The library will offer a “Take Your Child to the Library Day” from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Feb. 7, an event being held at 600 libraries in 44 states as an initiative aimed at increasing usage and awareness of libraries. This will be the first year the Pember Library has participated in the event, founded by Nadine Lipman, a children’s librarian from Waterford, Conn., in 2011.

“I saw it advertised and I decided it would be something cool to partake in,” said Ardyce Bresett, Pember librarian. She said the goal is to increase the number of people who frequent and use the library, particularly children. To that end, organizers have scheduled a variety of childfriendly activities aimed at showcasing what the library offers. “There will be all sorts of fun thing to do,” Bresett said. Beginning at 10:30 a.m. there will be a special reading of “Library Lion” in the children’s room. The book, written by Michelle Knudsen and illustrated by Kevin Hawkes, follows a lion who shows up to the library one day for story time. The story is intended for children ages 4 to 7 years. Older or younger children, or those who prefer a different story, are free to read a book with the parents or check out a book to read on their own at home.

“Children can sign up for a (library) card and they’ll receive a special library card sleeve,” Bresett said. Kids will also have the opportunity to make their own bookmarks. Linda Newman will bake cupcakes that children will then have an opportunity to decorate beginning at noon and from 10 a.m. to noon kids can create valentines that Judy Daigle has arranged to deliver to military veterans in Bennington. There will also be a library treasure hunt. Bresett said every child that completes the treasure hunt will be entered into a chance to win a stuffed lion. “We are hoping that after visiting the library everyone will decide which day works best for their family and that will be their Take Your Child to Library Day all year long,” Bresett said. Admission to the event is free. For more information, call 518-642-2525.
