Champions Continued from front page After the half, the Devils exploded for 18 points and held an insurmountable 40-26 advantage after three quarters. Jones said the team was motivated to play well against Arlington after suffering two regular season losses, including a two-point loss at home during which they shot less than 20 percent from the floor. “We knew we could play them better,” Jones said. “We were on a mission from that point on.” Jones credited the team’s

calm and patient focus as the key to their success throughout the season. “We played as a team. All the kids knew their role and did their jobs,” he said. “I was a basket of nerves, but they were on task and they kept me calm.” Poultney which finished the season with an 18-5 record, benefited from a schedule littered with contests against larger schools. “We played a lot of Division III schools, which I think helped us out. It definitely made us a stronger team,” Jones said. Since the game, the girls have been basking in the spotlight. Jones said one of the girls said she loves living in a small

town because she feels like a “rock star.” “The community has been awesome,” Jones said. “They’ve been getting the all star treatment.” Jones said they are hoping to host an assembly or banner raising ceremony at the school sometime before the end of the month so that the girls can celebrate with the rest of the student body. “It’s a historic thing. I’m very proud of them.” Jones said.

Maple Continued from front page Commerce and the Poultney Downtown Revitalization Committee. “Maple Fest is geared to bring people into the area for fun and entertainment and celebrate the maple season,” event chairwoman Pam Mikkelsen said. Admission to Maple Fest is absolutely free, and with the exception of a few shopping and dining opportunities, patrons can enjoy an entire weekend of fun without spending any money. “It’s completely free. If you don’t want to spend money, you don’t have to,” Mikkelsen said. The event, which has been known to attract several hundred people to town and is one of its largest annual events, showcases Poultney’s maple sugaring industry. Throughout the weekend, several of the community’s sug-

arhouses will open their doors and welcome in guests to observe their sugaring operations. “There are seven sugarhouses in Poultney participating in the event,” Pam Green of Green’s Sugarhouse House said. “Each one has their own unique charm.” At Green’s, visitors will have the chance to see the entire sugaring process from tree to container. “You can see buckets, taste sap from the tree and see the pipeline,” Green said. “We’ll tell them about the whole process.” The Green’s will lead guided tours of their operation and show how the sap travels from the tree to their stainless steel wood-fired evaporator where it’s transformed from sap into syrup. There will also be a number of nature trails guests can explore and tasty treats such as maple sugar on snow and maple flavored cotton candy. Elsewhere, G & P Sugarhouse will welcome the public to their sugarhouse for the first time. “This is the first year we’ve been open to the public,” Paula Manchester, the ‘P’ in G & P Sugarhouse said. Manchester said it’s been a late start to the season, but temperatures were expected to more conducive to the flow of sap during the week and they were hoping to have some sap ready for processing by this weekend. “If the sap starts to flow, we’ll have tours and samples for guests this weekend,” she said. The other sugarhouses open

to the public are: Brayton and Foley Sugarhouse, Marshall Maples, Poverty Hill Sugar House, Riverside Maples, and Wood Family Sugarhouse. Back in the village, organizers will host a number of family-friendly events in and near Main Street. “It’s basically the same format as previous years. There will be a number of activities on Main Street from St. Raphael’s to Green Mountain College,” Mikkelson said. Organizers have created two separate maps to help people find their bearings during the weekend. One indicates the location of participating sugarhouse and the other the location of specific activities. Both will be available at the Stonebridge. One of the most popular activities will be held at Green Mountain College. “The Interactive Family Games at GMC were something that were started last year and proved to be a big hit,” Mikkelsen said. “It’s aimed at kids and is basically a watereddown education of how maple sugaring works.” “It’s (Maple Fest) really an event geared to bring children to,” she added. Like any festival focused on an edible product, Maple Fest offers plenty of ways to enjoy some culinary treats. A Maple Pancake Breakfast will be held from 8 to 10 a.m. at the Methodist Church and will feature authentic maple syrup from local producers. Another savory event is the fourth Annual Maple Bake Off

See MAPLE, pg. 3

The Lakes Region FreePress - March 18, 2011 - 3

Maple Continued from page 2 Contest at St. Raphael’s Parish Hall. Residents are invited to bake a maple inspired treat which will be evaluated by a panel of judges and awards will be presented to the top three dishes. Mikkelsen said in the past, the contest has included an apple-maple treat, pies, and scones, to name a few. “There’s nothing super unique, but they’re all very good,� she said. The American Legion will also host a Family Dinner from 4 to 5:30 p.m. and 5:30 to 7 p.m. The menu is set to include a baked maple ham. Reservations can be made by calling Robin at 236-8801. Other attractions include the Maple Fest 5K Run, Horace Greeley sightings, a Bag Sale and Silent Auction, poetry readings by the Poultney Theater Group, maple-centric movies at the Tiny Theater, Nature Walks, and more. “In my opinion, run first and then have breakfast. If you have children, go to the college and then walk up Main Street toward the church. It’s a good place to be between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. for lunch, and dessert from the Maple Bake Off.� Most importantly, enjoy yourself. “The focus is to have fun,� she said. “That’s the whole point.�

Maple producers in Vermont and New York opening doors By Derek Liebig

guests will have the chance to sample products, tour sugarhouses, and participate in a number of other activities including pancake breakfasts and horse drawn wagon rides to name a few. Eight producers from Washington County are expected to participate in the event. They include: Grottoli’s Maple in Middle Granville; Rathbun’s Maple Sugar House in Whitehall; Wild Hill Farm in Salem; and Sugar Mill Farm in Greenwich. Others include Rascher’s Sugar House in Shushan; Mapleland Farms in Argyle; Highland Maple Farm, also in Argyle; and Dry Brook Sugar House in Salem. For more information, visit www.mapleweekend.com. Vermont and New York are two of the largest maple producers in the world after Canada. According to USDA reports, Vermont produced 890,000 gallons of syrup in 2010 while New York produced 312,000 gallons.

Poultney isn’t the only place to enjoy the maple harvest this weekend. Producers in both Vermont and New York will open their doors to the public as each holds its own statewide maple celebration. The Tenth Annual Vermont Maple Open House Weekend will be held Saturday and Sunday, March 19 and 20. The public will have the opportunity to visit sugarhouses throughout the state where they can learn more about Vermont’s first agricultural crop of the year. Most sugarhouses will allow guests to tour their facilities and learn more about the maple sugaring process and many will provide samples of their products. Sugarhouses from Rutland County who are participating in this weekend’s event include: Green’s Sugarhouse in Poultney, Thelma’s Maple Sugarhouse in Brandon, Smith Maple Crest Farm in Shrewsbury, and Sugar and Spice Restaurant in Mendon. The New England Maple Museum in Pittsford also has a number of activities planned. To learn more, visit www. vermontmaple.org. Across the border in the Empire State, New York’s annual Maple Weekend actually spans two weekends: March 19-20 and 26-27. Much like their counterparts in Vermont, New York maple producers will open their doors to the public and

Invisible Continued from front page story of Tony, a young boy from Uganda who struggled to survive in war-torn Uganda and how the Invisible Children’s organization has changed his life. According to Sandra Kuehn, a World Geography teacher from FHUHS, representatives

from Invisible Children will screen their new film and will be joined by a youth from Uganda who will share his story and answer questions about his experiences. Schools for Schools is a club organized by students in connection with Invisible Children that is trying to help Ugandan youth. “The focus is to raise money and awareness of the fact children are treated in an inhuman

way,” Kuehn said. Kuehn said a friend introduced her to the Invisible Children organization and the plight of Ugandan children who are taken from their homes and forced to serve as children soldiers in the Lord’s Resistance Army, a rebel group led by Joseph Kony. “It fit into my curriculum,” she said of the videos. “I showed it to my students who were concerned and wanted to do some-

thing to help.” She said after showing the video, several of her students decided to take on the project of raising money to help the children and they hosted a Battle of the Bands event last year that raised $250. They also invited Invisible Children to Fair Haven last fall, where representatives and children who grew up in Uganda told of their experiences. The event proved so popular

that organizers decided to host another event for members of the community. Doors are scheduled to open at 5:30 p.m. and dinner and refreshments will be available for purchase. The film will be screened at 6 p.m. after which a former Ugandan youth will relay his experiences to those in attendance and answer questions. Admission to the event is completely free and items from Uganda and the Invisible Children will be for sale with proceeds used to assist in efforts to set up roadblocks to Kony and the LRA.

Letters Thank you Dear Wells resident: We appreciate your approval of our ballot item that requested $12,000 for the future of the lake. As indicated at the Town Meeting on Feb. 28,we have a plan to restore Lake St. Catherine, starting with the southern portions, to its proper accustomed use. We are in the process of applying for permits to implement hydraulic dredging and an aeration program in the near future. Our first permit will be for portions of the northwest and the eastern shore of Little Lake. But our plan calls for continued efforts to help all parts of the Lake system to be restored to the multiuse, accustomed use we have known in the recent past. This restoration process will improve the beauty of the lake, the aquatic life environment, and the recreational uses of the lake. The process we have started will take many years to accomplish and not all areas can be treated first. But through a multi-year process of treatment, we expect to see comprehensive improvement. Please continue to support us by renewing your membership. If you have not joined us yet, consider joining. More information is available at our web site: www.lakematters.org -- or write us at the above address. Our strategy calls for a balanced treatment program with increased reliance on environmentally safe methods of aeration and hydraulic dredging. We have researched and personally observed these treatment methods on nearby lakes. These examples show lakes being successfully brought back from even worse conditions than we now face. Your continued support is the key to making the restoration of Lake St. Catherine happen. Whether your home is right on the lake or whether you are a Wells resident who looks forward to using the lake more in the future, we call upon you to continue to trust that our lake strategy and our ongoing endeavors will reward you many times over. Thank you again for your confidence, your encouragement, and your financial aid . . . fr the sake of the lake. The Directors Lake St. Catherine Conservation Fund Inc

If you go south at Castleton Corners and take your first left at Brown’s Corners, you will see a farm at the left. This is the spot where Bob and Verona Brown raised their kids. The oldest boy was named after his dad and was a couple years behind me in school. As a kid, you would always find him tagging along with dad. It was through a friend of his dad’s, Dugar Jones, who was from Mawah, N.J., that little Bobby got the bug for driving truck. Dugar owned a huge trucking concern back home, but he also had a summer camp on Lake

Bomoseen. As you get older, you can get busy with life and get out of contact with old friends and this is especially true of a truck driver who is constantly on the road. Well, every now and then he would seek me out and we would rehash old times. We both had some great stories from our early 20s when we were young and foolish.

God bless you Bobby Brown – Safe Trip. Twig Canfield

In memory of Fred Warren The U.S. military years leave us with great memories on really good times and new friends from all over the country. During those formative years you are instilled with a special pride for having served in that particular branch of the Armed Services. It lasts a lifetime and that is why at a parade you can see grown men with tears down their cheeks as their band passes by. There was a perfect picture of fun-loving Fred in his uniform in the obituary. Fred was very proud of his Navy years and his accomplishments and spoke about them quite often. But they just pale in comparison to the many friends he

has made and left behind right here in his hometown area. God bless you Fred. And stand tall and straight when that big parade passes by. Twig Canfield

30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

Shumlin to discuss education at dinner By Derek Liebig

UNWANTED VEHICLES & SCRAP METAL YOU BRING IT IN OR WE’LL COME PICK IT UP

call Rotary Club member Chrispin White at 287-4330. According to White, the annual dinner benefits the club’s charitable endeavors, particularly in the area of education. “It serves as our annual fundraiser for the high school and elementary schools,� White said. Because of the evening’s educational focus, organizers try to select a speaker well versed on topics of education. “We try to get someone on the state level who can really talk about education,� White said. “He’ll (Shumlin) discuss his vision of education for the state of Vermont over the next several years.� White said education is more important that ever with impending budget cuts and the discussion of consolidating supervisory units.

“Education is a big topic,� he said. White said a member of the local Rotary Club contacted the governor’s office to see if he would be interested in speaking and he was. In the past, proceeds from the dinner have been used to purchase various teaching tools, such as an electronic smart board. White said they typically alternate the school that receives benefits. Last year’s event benefited the elementary school. Shumlin is Vermont’s 81st governor. He began his political career in 1980 at the age of 24 as a member of Putney’s select board. Later he served as a member of the Vermont House of Representatives before representing Windham County in the state senate. He lives in Putney.

The Slate Valley Museum, in celebration of the immigrant Irish community of the Slate Valley, will be having a day of Irish inspired activities in honor of St. Patrick’s Day! From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday, March 19. The Slate Valley’s Irish community helped spur the infant quarry industry into its most productive period. Many of the Irish immigrants to the Slate Valley were skilled quarrymen from County Tipperary, County Kilkenny and County Clare. Slate had been produced in these countries since at least the 13th century, but the slate industry remained small. Still predominantly dependant on agricultural, the blight on the potato harvest between 1845 and 1851 caused widespread famine, mass mortality and large-scale emigration to American, impacting farmers and quarrymen alike. Many of the Irish who came to the Slate Valley were different than the typical immigrant from Ireland. Like the Welsh, they had developed valuable industrial experience and skills from working in quarries in Ireland. Several of them became owners of slate mills and quarries, particularly in the northern part of the valley around Fair Haven, Castleton and Poultney. This successful core of Irish immigrants attracted other Irish immigrants

seeking opportunities through family and local connections. Although never as numerous in the quarries as the Welsh or the later Eastern European workers, the Irish formed an important ethnic community in the Slate Valley. To celebrate this heritage and the beginning of spring, the Slate Valley Museum will have a day of Irish tea and food and a showing of “The Quite Man”. Visitors will have the opportunity to see SVM’s award winning exhibit “The Dream and the Reality: Immigration and Assimilation in the Slate Valley of New York and Vermont 1840 – Present” which explores the immigrant experience in the Slate Valley through the themes of culture, economics, and education. Learn how these different components drove thousands of immigrants (including those from Ireland) to leave their homeland for the Slate Valley. “The Quiet Man” is a 1952 American Technicolor romantic comedy-drama filmIt was directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne, Maureen O’Hara, Victor McLaglen and Barry Fitzgerald. For more information, call the museum at 642-1417. For the most up-to-date information on programs and events at the Slate Valley Museum, follow Facebook and Twitter.

New Fair Haven Town Manager "on the job" By Derek Liebig The town of Fair Haven is under new management. Pawlet resident Peter Hathaway was recently hired by the Fair Haven Select Board to serve as the community’s town manager. Hathaway, who was one of five finalists chosen for the position by a community search committee last month, had his first day on the job last Monday. Although Hathaway is new to the rigors of town management, he brings plenty of other managerial experience to the position. “I’ve worked in non-profit management for the last five to ten years,” Hathaway said during an interview last week. “I

have a graduate degree in public administration and have been interested in public service since I was in college.” According to former Select Board member Ron Adams, Hathaway was chosen as the strongest candidate by the Select Board. “You’ll never find a candidate that meets all the criteria but his background as a business manager made him a great choice,” he said. According to Adams, Hathaway possesses a strong knowledge of business, computers and accounting. “He’s also very good at public relations,” Adams added. Hathaway said his managerial experience and people skills are his greatest traits. “I consider myself a people person and

I’ve always had the ability to work with and through conflict,” he said. He admits to having a lot to learn, particularly familiarizing himself with the community and its officials. “I’m a new comer so the hardest part is going to be getting to know all the people,” he said. “There’s always going to be some learning that happens on the jobs,” Adams said. “The only part he has to learn is the infrastructure of the town. He will be out in the field as we move forward and will learn more about public works, the sewers, etc., etc. His main job is to manage the town.” Hathaway singled out several projects he’s hoping to tackle including the completion of

repairs on the deck of a local bridge. He’d also like to continue work on the Beaver Wood’s energy project, a biomass facility that’s been proposed in the area. “I’d like to continue the great public budgeting Fair Haven has maintained as well,” Hathaway said. “It’s one of the few towns in the area with a budget surplus.” The need for a new manager arose after the former manager moved away from the region. “The previous town manager, Serena Williams, had an opportunity to move and live in Florida,” Adams said. “As we speak she’s sitting in Florida.” During the hiring process, each member of the select board hand picked two names to serve on a ten person citizen commit-

tee that was tasked with reviewing the 23 applicants who applied for the position. “The committee determined the criteria and choose five applicants to recommend to the select board,” Adams said. The select board then interviewed the five candidates and ultimately chose Hathaway to fill the position. According to Adams, Hathaway was unanimously selected as the strongest candidate by both the citizen committee and the select board. “That’s very flattering,” Hathaway said. “I’m hoping I can live up to all the expectations.” Hathaway’s contract is good for the next three years.

New York Times writer to speak in Rutland David Sanger, the Chief Washington Correspondent for the New York Times, will be the featured speaker next month at the Annual Meeting of Rutland Regional Health Services Board of Corporators.

Sanger, a best-selling author who has written extensively on foreign policy, nuclear proliferation, the presidency and economDavid Sanger ics, is a 1982 graduate of Harvard College. He has been part of two Pulitzer Prize winning teams reporting on the Challenger disaster and the difficulty the Clinton Administration had controlling the export of US technology to

China. More recently, Sanger has written about the nuclear crisis in Japan, an apparent setback in Iran’s nuclear power reactor, the role of the military in Middle Eastern countries where popular uprisings have toppled or threatened autocratic regimes and the success of a joint US-British effort to eliminate Libya’s ability to make weapons of mass destruction.

The Lakes Region FreePress - March 18, 2011 - 11

Life of two Vermont explorers to be examined Don Miller will unfold a tale of the rugged endurance, tenacity and courage of two young men from Bennington beginning at 2 p.m., Sunday, March 20and presented by the Bennington Historical Society. This program, held in the Ada Paresky Education Center located on the second floor of the Bennington Museum, is free and open to the public. Daniel Harmon and Simon Fraser, both from Bennington, were explorers during the early nineteenth century. Both men were born during the American Revolution and each left Bennington and moved to Montreal where they worked for the same fur trading company. They both represented the North West Company in the far

reaches of western Canada during the first 20 years of the nineteenth century. They explored the land leading to the Pacific Ocean with Fraser mapping much of the wild territory he covered, while Harmon kept an extensive journal on the Indians and wild life of northwest Canada. Their exploration of this region took place before Lewis and Clark made their much more famous trip, and they stayed longer, nearly 20 years. However, unlike Lewis and Clark, it is believed that Fraser and Harmon never knew each other, and both were all but forgotten by history. Don Miller, a Connecticut Yankee by birth, is a former president of the Bennington Historical Society, and Chair of the Bennington Museum

Board of Trustees. He moved to Bennington several years ago and quickly became part of the community. John Spargo, the first director and curator of the Bennington Museum, wrote a book about Harmon and Farser. After reading it, Miller felt that the lives of these two local explorers should be better known. The Bennington Museum, located at 75 Main Street (Route 9), Bennington has the largest public collection of Grandma Moses paintings in the world as well as the largest collection of 19th century Bennington pottery. In the other seven galleries, the museum presents a 1924 Wasp Touring Car, one of only twenty produced, military artifacts, one of the earliest ‘stars and

stripes’ in existence, fine and decorative arts, and more. On view through May 30 is “Founding Documents, 1761-1791 Archival Treasures Highlighting the Founding of Vermont’s Earliest Community” and “Bennington Collects IV, the Curated Edition.” The museum is just a short ride from Manchester, Williamstown, and eastern New York, and open February through December every day but Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $10 for adults, $9 for seniors and students over 18. No admission is charged for younger students or to visit the museum shop and café. Visit the museum’s website www. benningtonmuseum.org or call 802-447-1571 for more information.

New art exhibit opens at Feick Fine Arts Center "Crimes of the Heart" theater production starts tonight New Exhibit at the Feick Liza Myers presents her show Promises Kept at the Feick Fine Arts Center March 18-April 15. Liza refers to herself as a citizen of the western hemisphere, having lived, studied and traveled on both continents and beyond. "Visionary realism" is the term she uses to describe her paintings, using information from acute examination of the natural world to create a personal reality. Light, color and shadow inform us of a complex world of mystery and beauty. A reception for the artists will be held Friday, March 25 from 5-7 p.m. at the Feick.

GMC Theater Presents Crimes of the Heart The Green Mountain College theater program will present the comedy Crimes of the Heart March 18-20 in Ackley Theater. Directed by GMC professor Paula Mann, showtimes are 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2

p.m. on Sunday. Admission for the general public is $10. This is a Pulitzer Prize winning Southern Gothic comedy about a dysfunctional trio of sisters, Meg, Babe, and Lenny, who reunite at Old Granddaddy's home in Hazelhurst, Mississippi after Babe shoots her abusive husband in the stomach and is out on bail. Although past resentments bubble to the surface as each sister is forced to deal with the consequences of the "crimes of the heart" she's committed, they find, in surprising ways, that their support and love for each other overrides the past and promises a brighter future. The GMC production includes Victoria Sarver '11 and Jacqueline Petroski '11, Michael Shulman '12, Justice Buckmaster '14, Mia Nassivera '14 and Andrew Bullard '14. The play was written by Beth Henley and performed on Broadway in 1981. The 1986 film

A painting by Liza Myers which is on display at the Feick Fine Arts Center at Green Mountain College. adaptation was directed by Bruce Beresford and garnered three Academy Award nominations, including one for Henley for Best Adapted Screenplay.

Green Mountain College announces for-credit summer agriculture program Green Mountain College has announced dates for its third summer farm intensive program for college students interested in exploring traditional techniques and cutting edge research in sustainable agriculture. The 12-credit summer intensive program Farm Life Ecology: A Field and Table Intensive, runs for 13 weeks from May 23-August 19, with a July 4th break July 2-5. For the first time the College is also offering half-sessions for 6 credits from May 23-July 2 and July 7-August 19.

"Modern agriculture is heavily reliant on fossil energy sources and we'll need to find ways as a society to incorporate more energy-efficient solutions to growing food," said farm manager and program director Dr. Kenneth Mulder. "Students in this program get a chance to manage our campus farm while gaining a rigorous foundation in sustainable agriculture." Green Mountain College's Farm & Food Program has already built a strong reputation as an active research center for sustainable agriculture. Over the past three years, the program has received nearly $250,000 in grant funding to further develop the College's fossilfree agriculture initiatives. "The Farm and Food Intensive combines a rigorous classroom experience with individual research projects and

hands-on farm work," explained Mulder. "Students also get a chance to participate in some pretty exciting research that will teach them to run farms that are productive, profitable, and environmentally sustainable." Students in the program will manage all aspects of Green Mountain College's 22-acre Cerridwen Farm while receiving a curricular focus in three core areas: the fundamentals of organic crop and animal management; efficient integration and management of diverse farm systems; and development and utilization of appropriate technologies in agriculture. Program participants live in residence halls at GMC. Their home base is the Solar Harvest Center, which features newly renovated kitchen facilities. Here students prepare communal meals that include produce they grow and harvest from the farm. "Cerridwen Farm has become an agricultural lab of sorts, and our students contribute to that research," said Philip Ackerman-Leist, director of the College's Farm & Food Project and associate professor of environmental studies. "Like traditional ag programs students will learn a lot about agricultural practices and systems. They'll also learn how to be part of the current food revolution that is transforming farming and how we view food."

FHUHS hosting video from the Invisible Children It’s been a great week in Slaterville. With over 130 in attendance for our 8th Grade Open House (despite the poor weather), and our Student Council helping answer questions and guiding school tours, the excitement with the Class of 2015 was keenly felt. It was terrific to meet many future students and parents as well as hear the many nice comments on many FHU topics. The Slater Boys’ Basketball team is on the way to Barre after back-to-back home playoff victories. The desire, positive aggression and skill are tremendous to witness first-hand so I encourage all who are able to attend the upcoming games. After the Vergennes win, a group of their supporters stayed after to speak

The screening and group discussion will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Food and drink will be available to purchase starting

Students busy with math, reading Math, literacy, learning and fun were the focus of a coteaching lesson prepared by Mrs. Miller and Mr. Eddy. The lesson began with the grade 8 and grade 1 children pairing up to read “The Foot Book� by Dr. Seuss. The students then helped trace each other’s feet. After both feet were cut out the older students guided the younger students in measuring the length of each foot in both inches and centimeters. They used both rulers and Cuisenaire rods as tool to measure with. The students arranged the feet in sequence from longest to shorter and compared lengths. So take a peek in either the middle school or first grade hallway and see the long and short of it! We measured our feet It was pretty neat The book was fun Now we’re done!

The judges were blindfolded and only allowed to ask yes or no questions of the character so they could guess their identity. If the judge guessed incorrectly, the student would earn a point. The students prevailed and won by stumping the judges. As always, a great time was had by all. Special thanks to all of our judges.
