But  Shumlin  stuck  to  environmental  issues  in  his  inaugural,  and  urged  the  Legislature  to  support  several  of  his  initiatives  within  that  context,  includ-­ ing: Â&#x2021; $Q (QHUJ\ ,QQRYDWLRQ 3URJUDP to  replace  the  SPEED  program,  that  would  create  incentives  for  utilities  to  help  customers  save  money  and  cut  fossil  fuel  use  through  energy  inno-­ vation  projects.  These  would  include  projects  calling  for  utilities  to  provide  OHDVLQJ RU ÂżQDQFLQJ RSWLRQV WR KHOS FXVWRPHUV GR GHHSHU HIÂżFLHQF\ LP-­ provements,  or  install  cold-­climate  heat  pumps,  solar  water  heating  and  geothermal  or  biomass  heating,  for  example.  The  new  EIP  program,  if  implemented,  would  result  in  more  than  1,000  new  jobs,  save  Vermonters  â&#x20AC;&#x153;hundreds  of  millions  of  dollarsâ&#x20AC;?  on  their  energy  bills,  and  cut  greenhouse  gas  emissions  by  around  15  million Â

&ULWLFLVP $ UHĂ&#x20AC;HFWLRQ RQ XV The  commentary  in  the  aftermath  of  Gov.  Peter  Shumlinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  third  inaugural  speech  this  past  Thursday  is  at  once  fascinating,  nonsensical  and  madden-­ ing  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  but  also  enlightening  as  a  mirror  of  our  political  culture.

Many  critics  were  quick  to  pounce  because  the  governor  failed  to  elabo-­ rate  on  health  care,  economic  growth,  education  reform  or  the  $100  million  EXGJHW JDS WKH VWDWH LV IDFLQJ LQ WKH QH[W ÂżVFDO \HDU 1HYHU PLQG KH VDLG KH would  take  up  those  issues  in  his  budget  address  this  week.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  criticism  for  criticism  sake,  and  part  of  the  culture.  More  interesting  were  those  within  the  media.  VTDigger  noted  that  while  the  governor  had  snatched  victory  from  the  jaws  of  defeat  earlier  in  the  morning  with  the  Legislature  deciding  the  election,  by  afternoon  (after  the  speech)  the  governor  â&#x20AC;&#x153;had  already  lost  ground.â&#x20AC;?  The  speech  wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  vi-­ sionary,  the  analysis  said,  just  stuff  on  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  to-­do  list  that  he  gussied  XS WR VRXQG JRRG 1R ELJ GHDO WR DGGUHVV WKH QHHG IRU FOHDQLQJ XS WKH water  in  Lake  Champlain  (a  perennial  problem  that  no  other  governor  has  tackled)  or  to  reimagine  ways  to  stir  more  growth  in  the  renewable  energy  sector  while  lowering  the  energy  bills  for  thousands  of  Vermonters.  Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  all  part  of  the  initiative  he  started  a  few  years  ago,  and  heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  just  adding  to  it.  (The  initiatives,  by  the  way,  made  national  news  and  cast  the  state  as  a  OHDGHU %XW QR PDWWHU ZKDWÂśV really  important  about  the  governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  speech,  the  analysis  said,  is  what  he  didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  say.  Fascinating,  but  do  tell.  +H GLGQÂśW UDOO\ WKH /HJLVODWXUH WR VWRNH WKH VWDWHÂśV HFRQRP\ DQG ÂżQDOO\ solve  the  one  thing  the  election  had  been  about,  the  analysis  continued,  which  was,  of  course,  affordability.  That  is,  the  commentary  continued,  the  governor  didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  explain  how  he  was  going  to  make  Vermont  more  afford-­ DEOH WR VWUXJJOLQJ UHVLGHQWV RYHU WKH QH[W WZR \HDUV 1RU GLG KH H[SODLQ KRZ he  would  reduce  the  property  tax  burden,  or  keep  health  care  costs  down,  or  grow  jobs,  or  reduce  crime,  or  part  the  waters  or  bring  the  Progressives  under  control.  (Ok,  I  made  up  those  last  two  items,  but  you  get  the  point.)

BAKRIGES  &  CHEPAITIS In  1941  the  artist  Henri  Matisse  was  ill,  bedridden  and  unable  to  pick  up  a  paintbrush.  He  found,  however,  that  he  could  maneuver  scissors  through  prepared  sheets  of  brightly  colored  paper.  He  referred  to  this  technique  as  â&#x20AC;&#x153;painting  with  scissors.â&#x20AC;?  Inspired  by  what  was  then  a  still  young  musical  idiom,  jazz,  Matisse  used  the  ideas  of  rhythm  and  repetition  with  bursts  of  visual  improvisation  to  create.

This  appreciation  comes  full  circle  in  the  original  jazz  compositions  of  Chris  Bakriges  inspired  by  Matisseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  visual  work  and  as  rendered  by  Bakriges,  a  jazz  pianist,  and  the  as-­ tonishingly  wide-­ranging  talent  of  jazz  violinist,  Stanley  Chepaitis.  Both  musicians  are  founding  members  of  a Â

number  of  ensembles,  and  have  per-­ formed  internationally.

Bakriges  and  Chepaitis  will  per-­ form  these  original  jazz  compositions  at  the  WalkOver  Gallery  and  Concert  Room,  15  Main  Street  in  Bristol,  on  Saturday  at  7:30  p.m.  Images  of  Matisseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  work  that  inspired  the  com-­ positions  will  be  projected  during  the  live  performance.

Tickets  are  $15  in  advance  and  $20  at  the  door.  Reservations  and  infor-­ mation  at  453-­3188,  ext.  2,  or  walk-­ over@mac.com.

Sen.  Claire  Ayer,  D-­Addison,  said  she  is  very  happy  that  state  govern-­ ment  â&#x20AC;&#x153;is  getting  serious  about  the  lake.â&#x20AC;?  Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  also  pleased  with  the  governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  emphasis  on  enforcement  in  terms  of  environmental  regula-­ tions.  Ayer  noted  it  was  20  years  ago  that  the  state  put  in  place  a  series  of  environmental  regulations  governing  farm  practices,  yet  â&#x20AC;&#x153;we  are  having  the  same  conversations  (about  non-­

compliance),  in  some  cases  with  the  same  farmers.  I  think  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  time  to  put  a  little  teeth  in  it.  This  wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  be  popular,  but  I  am  happy  to  hear  about  Current  Use.  Those  are  tax  dollars  that  all  of  us  payâ&#x20AC;Ś  and  I  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  want  to  pay  for  environmental  disservice.â&#x20AC;?

Ayer  said  she  is  a  fan  of  increas-­ ing  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  energy  portfolio,  but  believes  the  Legislature  should  have  more  conversation  about  how  such  projects  are  sited. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  think  it  has  to  be  more  of  a  pro-­ cess  that  rewards  the  host  communi-­ ties  for  doing  this,â&#x20AC;?  Ayer  said.

Ayer  is  looking  forward  to  hear-­ ing  the  new  direction  that  Shumlin  wants  to  pursue  for  health  care  reform.  The  governor  recently  suspended  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  march  toward  a  single-­payer  in-­ surance  system,  citing  newly  released  ¿QDQFLQJ GDWD $\HU LV FKDLUZRPDQ RI the  Senate  Health  Care  Committee  and  will  thus  play  a  big  role  in  the  health  care  conversation  going  forward.

The  countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  senior  senator  was  not  impressed  with  the  manner  in  which  single-­payer  advocates  voiced  their  concerns  and  demands  at  the  Statehouse  on  Thursday.  Protestors Â

chanted  slogans  inside  and  outside  of  the  House  Chambers  before,  and  af-­ ter,  the  governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  speech.  They  also  unfurled  banners,  and,  among  other  things,  demanded  the  scheduling  of  D -DQ SXEOLF KHDULQJ RQ ÂżQDQF-­ ing  for  a  single-­payer  plan.  A  beefed  up  Statehouse  security  force  arrested Â

more  than  two-­dozen  protestors  after  the  dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  festivities  were  complete.

Ayer  was  disappointed  with  the  pro-­ testorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  tactics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  think  it  might  have  been  counter-­ productive,â&#x20AC;?  she  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  really  think  they  played  their  hand  to  hard  and  I  think  they  played  it  too  fast.â&#x20AC;?

Ayer  said  protestors  never  ap-­ proached  her  beforehand  about  sched-­ uling  a  public  hearing  on  Jan.  29.  She  DGGHG 9HUPRQW KDV DOUHDG\ GHÂżQHG within  Act  48,  that  health  care  is  a  hu-­ man  right. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No  phone  calls,  no  emails,  nothing  about  that  (Jan.  29)  date,â&#x20AC;?  she  said.

Some  of  the  reason  for  the  bounce-­back  is  due  to  the  Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  schedule  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  their  losses  came  to  D-­I  Rutland  and  to  a  pair  of  tough  New  York  teams,  Lake  Placid  and  North-­ east  Clinton.

But  senior  captain  Justin  Stone,  who  paced  the  Tigers  vs.  Stowe  with  two  goals  and  an  assist,  said  the  team  is  playing  better  because  they  have  put  in  the  necessary  effort.

Then  in  the  second,  the  Tigers  out-­ shot  the  Raiders,  12-­2,  and  scored  four  times.  Three  times  crashing  the  net  paid  off,  and  the  fourth  was  a  Stone  solo  effort.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody  just  woke  up,â&#x20AC;?  Stone  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  saw  what  was  working  and  got  it  done.â&#x20AC;?

At  1:37  Leno  backhanded  home  a  rebound  of  a  Stone  shot.  The  Ti-­ gers  pressed,  and  Whitaker  denied  Crowingshieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  backhand  from  the  slot,  and  Morgan  Huestis  shot  the  rebound  just  over  the  bar.  Whitaker  later  gloved  a  Crowningshield  bid  from  his  doorstep.

Stowe  carried  play  for  a  few  min-­ utes  in  the  middle  of  the  period,  and  Ryan  preserved  the  tie  by  stopping  Jackson  Felis  and  Lively.  The  Tigers  kept  close  watch  on  Haggerty  and  kept  him  off  the  board,  in  part  thanks  to  marking  by  Jerry  Niemo.  Then  the  Tigers  took  charge.  Lalonde  (three  assists)  worked  the  puck  into  the  right-­wing  circle,  and  Marty  Niemo  outmuscled  two  defenders  to  get  the  puck  into  the  slot,  where  linemate  Eli  Tucker  one-­ timed  it  into  the  lower  left  corner  at  10:14.  At  12:46,  it  was  4-­2.  Defender  Krystian  Gombosi  sent  the  puck  to-­ ward  the  right  end  of  the  Stowe  blue  line.  Stone  levered  himself  past  a  Raider  along  the  boards,  curled  into  the  slot  and  whipped  the  puck  into  the  near  side.  The  Tigers  applied  a  back-­breaker  at  14:59  on  a  power  play.  Defender  Andrew  Gleason  shot  from  between  the  circles.  Whitaker  stopped  the  shot,  but  the  rebound  popped  to  the  onrushing  Gleason,  who  tucked  the  puck  inside  the  left  post.

Bartlett  said  the  Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  plan  of  clearing  the  zone  quickly  and  sim-­ ply,  getting  the  puck  deep  and  work-­ ing  hard  paid  off.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  were  under  their  sticks,  we  were  in  their  faces  and  we  were  on  their  hips,  and  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  what  we  said  at  the  beginning  before  we  went  out:  If Â

ESSEX  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  The  Middlebury  Union  High  School  girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  hockey  team  won  twice  last  week,  including  a  big  road  victory  against  the  defending  Divi-­ sion  I  champions  by  the  defending  D-­II  champion.  MUHS  moved  to  D-­I  this  winter  after  winning  D-­II  this  past  season.

The  big  news  came  on  Friday,  when  the  Tigers  defeated  Essex,  2-­1.  Essex  (6-­3)  took  the  lead  mid-­ way  through  the  second  period  on  an  Amanda  Sinkewicz  strike,  but  the  Tigers  struck  back  with  two  goals  13  seconds  apart  later  in  the  period.

Tulley  Hescock  tied  the  game,  with  an  assist  from  Carone,  and  then  Andi  Boe  netted  the  unassisted  game-­winner  almost  immediately  afterward.  The  Tigers  outshot  the  Hornets,  25-­11.  Hendy  made  10  saves,  and  Essex  goalie  Vika  Simons  stopped  23  shots.

The  Tigers  will  host  North  Coun-­ try  on  Monday  night  in  a  game  re-­ scheduled  from  Jan.  3,  and  Rice  will  visit  MUHS  at  5  p.m.  on  Saturday. Â

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND

Addison Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Humane Society

Pet Pages

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  Amelia!  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  9  years  old  and  came  to  Homeward  Bound  in  December  as  my  owner  was  moving  and  couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  keep  me.  I  was  an  indoor/outdoor  cat  in  my  previous  home,  so  may  enjoy  some  outside  time  in  my  new  one.  I  get  along  with  other  cats  and  children  of  all  ages  and  love  being  around  people;  but  also  like  having  time  to  myself.  I  can  come  off  a  little  VK\ DW Âż UVW EXW DP YHU\ VZHHW

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  Mia!  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  a  beautiful  13  year  old  who  is  a  true  snuggle  bug!  I  came  to  Homeward  Bound  at  the  beginning  of  December  with  my  two  housemates.

Out  of  the  three  of  us,  I  am  a  little  shyer.  I  come  around  quickly  though  as  I  love  to  be  pet  and  held!  I  am  extremely  sweet  and  HDV\ JRLQJ DQG DP UHDG\ WR ¿ QG D KRPH to  relax  and  be  loved  in!

Meet Sasha!

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  Ozzy!  I  came  to  Homeward  Bound  at  the  end  of  December  as  the  home  I  ZDV OLYLQJ LQ ZDVQÂśW WKH ULJKW Âż W IRU PH , was  getting  along  with  the  other  male  cat  in  the  house,  but  not  the  female.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  a  very  sweet  boy  and  love  to  snuggle.  I  will  never  turn  down  a  belly  rub,  theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  my  favorite!  I  can  be  very  vocal  when  I  want  attention  and  am  just  an  all  around  great  guy!

Polly  &  Mable  are  two  sweet,  snugly  little  guinea  pigs.  They  were  brought  in  as  their  owner  was  allergic  to  the  hay  they  must  eat  daily.

Polly  loves  to  be  held!  She  will  snuggle  up  under  your  chin  and  even  gives  kisses.  Mable  is  a  little  timid  when  Polly  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  with  her,  but  she  will  happily  settle  in  on  your  lap  if  she  is  there  too.  They  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  bite,  tolerate  baths,  and  are  good  about  getting  their  nails  trimmed.

Sasha is a snowshoe Siamese. She was rescued by some friends several years ago and I took her in. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now about eight years old and is very affectionate. She lives with two other cats and none of them like each other, but we manage reasonably peaceful coexistence most of the time.

Sasha and the male, William, square off quite often and she usually seems to win â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at any rate, when one is chasing the other it is usually Sasha doing the chasing.

Your pet wants to be FAMOUS Submit your

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  Scarlett!  I  have  beautiful  long  brown  hair  that  makes  my  green  eyes  pop!  I  came  to  Homeward  Bound  at  the  beginning  of  December  after  being  found  as  a  stray.  I  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  mind  their  company  but  keep  to  myself  more  than  some  other  my  other  feline  friends.  When  people  come  into  the  room  though,  I  get  right  up  to  see  them.  I  love  being  brushed  and  having  the  attention  on  me!  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  Tigress!  I  came  to  Homeward  Bound  originally  in  June  2014  as  my  owner  had  too  many  cats,  but  was  adopted  out  in  November  to  a  great  family.  Unfortunately,  they  had  a  dog,  and  I  ended  up  not  liking  him  very  much!

I  do  get  along  with  other  cats  though,  and  wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  mind  another  feline  friend  in  my  new  home!  I  absolutely  love  to  play;  string,  balls,  toy  mice,  anything  that  I  can  chase!

Pet Pages Cold  weather  dangers  for  pets By  M.  KATHLEEN  SHAW,  DVM Temperatures  are  dropping,  and  with  the  colder  weather,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  time  to  think  about  the  dangers  this  pres-­ ents  for  our  pets,  both  indoors  and  outdoors-­only  ones.  By  taking  a  few  commonsense  precautions,  you  can  help  reduce  the  cold  weather  dangers  to  your  pets.

Although  some  pets  are  condi-­ tioned  to  cold  weather,  veterinary  experts  agree  that  you  should  bring  outdoor  pets  indoors  if  the  temperature  drops  below  20  degrees  Fahrenheit.  Puppies,  kittens  and  short-­haired  pets  should  not  be  left  outside  for  extended  periods  anytime  the  temperature  goes  below  40  degrees.  For  pets  with  long  hair,  proper  grooming  is  essential  to  help  them  maintain  a  layer  of  warming  air  within  their  coat.  Pets  who  are  heav-­ ily  matted  cannot  keep  themselves  warm.

If  your  pet  must  stay  outdoors,  be  sure  to  provide  shelter  for  your  pet;Íž  they  can  suffer  from  frostbite  and  hypothermia  just  like  we  do.  A  petâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  outdoor  house  must  have  at  least  three  enclosed  sides,  be  elevated  off  the  ground,  and  contain  generous  amounts  of  bedding  such  as  straw  or  hay.  In  cold  weather,  bigger  is  not  always  better.  A  house  just  big  enough  for  your  pet  will  warm  up  faster  and  retain  heat  better  than  something  that  is  too  big.  Your  outdoor  pet  will  need  access  to  fresh  water  that  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  frozen.  Use  heated  water  bowls  and  replenish  them  frequently.

Cats  love  to  warm  up  underneath  car  hoods.  If  cats  have  access  to  your  car  outdoors  or  in  your  garage,  be  sure  to  pound  on  the  hood  of  the  car  prior  to  starting  it.  Many  cats  are  killed  or  grievously  injured  by  fan  belts  and  moving  engine  parts. Â

Another  danger  that  cars  present  to  pets  in  cold  weather  is  antifreeze  poisoning.  If  you  suspect  your  pet  has  consumed  any  antifreeze  at  all,  call  your  veterinarian  immediately.

Consider  keeping  dogs  on  a  leash  when  they  go  outside.  Each  winter  we  see  cases  of  dogs  that  have  gone  off  exploring  â&#x20AC;&#x153;frozenâ&#x20AC;?  lakes  or  streams  and  fall  through  the  ice  into  the  frigid  water.  Inside  the  house,  monitor  all  pets  DURXQG ZRRG EXUQLQJ VWRYHV Âż UH places,  and  space  heaters.  These  can  cause  severe  burns.  Younger  pets  romping  through  the  house  can  knock  objects  into  these  heat  sources  DQG FDXVH D Âż UH VR PDNH VXUH to  â&#x20AC;&#x153;pet-­proofâ&#x20AC;?  the  areas  around  them.  With  the  colder  darker  m o n t h s ,  m a n y  p e o p l e  l i k e  t o Â

Students of the Week from area High Schools Otter Valley Union High School Mount Abe Union High School Otter Valley Union High School is proud to name Katy McCarthy of Pittsford as its Student of the Week. Katy is the daughter of Lisa and Stephen McCarthy.

Katy has consistently been on the honor roll. Currently she is enrolled in AP Biology, pre-calculus, AP Literature and AP European History. She is also completing an exploratory ELO, or external learning opportunity.

Last spring she joined the Lutra chapter of the National Honor Society.

Since freshman year she has achieved excellence in several subjects, including three consecutive years of Spanish.

Katy is heavily involved in the Otter Valley Walking Stick Theater department, recently performing in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chicagoâ&#x20AC;? as June while also choreographing several of the numbers. Currently she is co-directing a one-act play with fellow thespian Andrew Jerome, which will be performed with the rest of the student-directed one-acts in February. She is the current Otter Valley Student Council president, and has been actively involved with student council since freshman year.

She has worked for the past two years at Keithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Country Store in Katy  McCarthy Pittsford as a cashier. The job has been a great opportunity for her to O.V.U.H.S. learn so much about her community and the world around her, and learn practical things that will stick with her throughout college like responsibility, accountability, etc.

Outside of school Katy enjoys reading and spending time with her family. .DW\ VD\V ´, KDYH OHDUQHG WKDW KLJK VFKRRO PXFK OLNH WKH UHVW RI OLIH LV D EDODQFLQJ DFW ,W¡V QRW HDV\ WR Ă&#x20AC; W LQ HYHU\WKLQJ WKDW has to be done, but it is worth it at the end of the day.â&#x20AC;?

Katy has recently been accepted to both the University of Vermont and Fordham University.

Mrs. Dardeck calls Katy â&#x20AC;&#x153;responsible, enthusiastic, and a pleasure to work with,â&#x20AC;? while Mr. Dwyer describes her as â&#x20AC;&#x153;exuberant, lively, engaged, dynamic and versatile.â&#x20AC;? Mr. Gerrior says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Katy has a wonderful rapport with people of all ages. â&#x20AC;Ś She has excellent written and verbal communication skills, and is extremely organized, reliable and computer literate. Katy can work independently and is able to follow through to ensure that the job gets done. She accomplishes these tasks with great initiative and with a very positive attitude.â&#x20AC;?

Everyone at Otter Valley wishes Katy the best in all her future endeavors.

Mount Abraham Union High School proudly names Isabel Brennan its Student of the Week. Isabel lives in Monkton with her parents, Bonnie and Kevin Brennan. She has an older brother, Ian, who is attending college in Colorado.

Isabel has been on high or highest honors throughout high school. She is co-secretary of the National Honor Society at Mount Abe. She is working toward the Challenge Diploma. This year, she is taking advanced courses including AP Calculus, AP English, Advanced Environmental Science, and French 5. She has been an active member of the Mt. Abe Environmental Action Group since ninth grade.

Isabel has played soccer all four year at Mount Abe and was on this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s D-II state championship team. She is also a four-year basketball player and was on the D-II state championship team in grades 10 and 11.

Isabel works at the Bristol Bakery and CafÊ in Hinesburg. She has been a member of the Monkton Maples 4-H Volunteer Club since ninth grade. She has helped out at the Monkton recycling center, volunteered at many local food shelf and holiday dinners, helped the Addison County fair vendors, Isabel  Brennan and has raised money for various local organizations.

M.A.U.H.S. In her spare time, Isabel enjoys hiking and snowshoeing in the mountains, running, biking, skiing, attempting to sail, playing basketball, spending time with friends and family, and singing along to Meghan Trainor and Taylor Swift.

Isabel says she learned from high school â&#x20AC;&#x153;that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endless options and opportunities in life, and you have to learn to choose the ones that are right for you. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t live for others, live for your own happiness.â&#x20AC;? Her biggest piece of advice to other students: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Become best friends with the lunch ladies. Also, the procrastination outlook of saving homework until the last minute so youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re older, therefore wiser, doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work as well as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d think.â&#x20AC;?

After high school, Isabel will attend St. Lawrence University, where she will play basketball and study environmental science and environmental law.

Math teacher Heather MacDonald says of Isabel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;She is a leader among her peers and uses the drive and work ethic she has learned through sports to shine in all areas of her life.â&#x20AC;?

The Mount Abe community is proud of all that Isabel has accomplished and wishes her the best at St. Lawrence.

Otter Valley Students of the week receive a gift certificate from the Book & Leaf Bookstore. Mt. Abe Students of the Week receive a free pizza from Cubbers. Students of the Week from ALL area high schools will receive a gift certificate from Vermont Book shop.

Students of the Week are chosen by school teachers and administration.

Andrea, Bill & John wish all students a bright future.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud to support all area students and want to say â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thanksâ&#x20AC;? to those who volunteer with us!

Thank you to the many community members who purchased Helping Hands Food Boxes through our local Hannaford Food and Pharmacy. This program is one of the many ongoing initiatives that Hannaford offers to address hunger and build a healthy community. Every year, The United Way of Addison County is enlisted to distribute the boxes to food pantries throughout Addison County. This year, Hannaford shoppers contributed to a critical need in our community by donating 224 Helping Hands Boxes to six organizations: Have a Heart Food Shelf, Whiting Community Cupboard, Starksboro Food Shelf, Vergennes Food Shelf, CVOEO Food Shelf and HOPE Food Shelf. We would like to express our appreciation to RSVP volunteer Stuart McAninch who was instrumental in coordinating and transporting Helping Hands Boxes to these locations throughout the holiday season.
