In  the  Vergennes  area,  Addison  Northwest  Supervisory  Union  is  cur-­ rently  seeking  volunteers  for  its  Act  46  Study  Committee  (deadline  for  volunteers  is  Monday,  Sept.  7).

Addison  Central  Supervisory  8QLRQ RI¿FLDOV LQ 0LGGOHEXU\ formed  the  ACSU  Charter  Com-­ mittee  earlier  this  summer  and  the  ACSU  is  on  track  to  qualify  for  the  accelerated  merger  and  its  concomi-­ WDQW ODUJHU ¿QDQFLDO LQFHQWLYHV 7KH ACSU  Charter  Committee  plans  to  GUDIW D XQL¿FDWLRQ FKDUWHU E\ 'HFHP-­ ber  to  forward  to  the  State  Board  of  Education.

In  the  Bristol  area,  Dawn  Gris-­ wold,  chair  of  the  Addison  Northeast  Supervisory  Union  and  Mount  Abra-­ ham  Union  High  School  boards,  said  all  of  the  boards  representing  the  in-­ dividual  schools  in  the  district  have  approved  the  creation  of  a  union-­ side  committee  to  study  Act  46.  The  heads  of  the  various  ANeSU  schools  and  the  ANeSU  Executive  Commit-­ tee  met  in  early  August  to  discuss  Act  46  and  its  potential  impact  on  school  governance  and  operations.  ANeSU  school  boards  are  tentative-­

Returning  to  Vermont  in  2002,  Dunne  was  elected  to  the  Senate  for  two  consecutive  terms,  during  which  he  also  served  as  assistant  director  of  the  Nelson  A.  Rockefeller  Center  for  Public  Policy  at  Dartmouth  College.  In  2006,  he  ran  for  lieutenant  governor  of  Vermont,  losing  to  incumbent  Re-­ SXEOLFDQ %ULDQ 'XELH ,Q KH UDQ LQ WKH ÂżYH ZD\ JXEHUQDWRULDO SUL-­ PDU\ UDFH DV D 'HPRFUDW ÂżQLVKLQJ IRXUWK LQ D WLJKW UDFH DPRQJ WKH WRS four  candidates.  Since  2010,  Dunne  has  worked  as  a  Google  executive,  UHSUHVHQWLQJ WKH ÂżUP DV LWV QDWLRQDO KHDG RI FRPPXQLW\ UHODWLRQV &HUWDLQO\ Dunne  has  done  well  in  a  distinguished  career  as  a  businessman,  political  leader,  head  of  a  national  organization  and  now  an  important  player  in  of  RQH RI WKH QDWLRQÂśV OHDGLQJ WHFK ÂżUPV /LVPDQ RQ WKH RWKHU KDQG KDV QHYHU KHOG SROLWLFDO RIÂżFH EXW KH KDV EHHQ actively  involved  in  politics  for  the  past  four  years.  Raised  in  a  middle-­ class  Vermont  family,  Lisman,  68,  was  born  in  Burlingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  North  End  and  graduated  from  UVM  in  1969,  after  which  he  moved  to  New  York  City,  ZKHUH KH VWDUWHG DV D ÂżOH FOHUN WD[L FDE GULYHU DQG EDUWHQGHU WR PDNH HQGV meet.  He  joined  Bear  Stearns  in  1984  and  worked  his  way  up  to  serve  as  FR KHDG RI *OREDO (TXLWLHV IRU \HDUV 7KH ÂżUP FUDVKHG LQ WKH *UHDW Recession  of  2008.  A  year  later,  Lisman  left  the  city  to  live  full  time  at  his  Shelburne  home.  About  four  years  ago,  Lisman  formed  the  political  orga-­ nization  Campaign  for  Vermont,  which  has  been  an  active  player  in  trying  WR LQĂ&#x20AC;XHQFH VWDWH SXEOLF SROLF\

B

oth  candidates  will  face  tough  primary  races  against  established  po-­ litical  leaders.  Lisman  faces  incumbent  Lt.  Gov.  Phil  Scott,  who  appeals  to  the  moder-­ ate  mainstream  on  both  sides  of  the  political  aisle.  In  a  state  where  you  can  vote  in  either  political  partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  primary  race,  that  favors  Scott.  Money,  how-­ ever,  favors  Lisman.  A  well-­funded  candidate  in  a  close  primary  race  could  eke  out  a  victory  as  Shumlin  did  in  2010  when  he  outspent  other  candidates  by  as  much  as  3-­1.

Dunne  faces  current  House  Speaker  Shap  Smith,  who  has  earned  ku-­ dos  for  his  political  skills  as  Speaker  for  the  past  six  years  as  well  as  his  deft  approach  in  balancing  the  moderates  of  his  party  with  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  more  liberal  Progressives.  Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  political  record,  nonetheless,  also  presents  a  KDQGLFDS DV DOO SROLWLFDO OHDGHUV UXIĂ&#x20AC;H IHDWKHUV DPRQJ YDULRXV FRQVWLWXHQ-­ cies,  costing  them  as  many  votes  as  supporters.  The  wild  card  candidate  is  Democrat  Sue  Minter,  54,  current  Vermont  Secretary  of  Transportation,  who  says  she  will  announce  whether  she  will  run  for  governor  shortly  after  the  Labor  Day  weekend.  If  she  enters  the  race,  she  also  presents  a  fresh  face  as  a  rising  political  leader  and  will  ben-­ HÂżW IURP WKH SRSXODULW\ VKH JDLQHG DV WKH IDFH RI 97UDQV LQ WKH ZDNH RI Tropical  Storm  Irene.  In  a  three-­way  race  among  three  capable  and  popular  Democrats,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  anybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  race  to  win.

O

n  the  Republican  side,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  easy  to  categorize  the  race  as  one  can-­ didate  with  money  against  the  other  with  popularity,  and  if  former  Republican  candidate  Rich  Tarrant  is  any  indicator,  the  road  for  Lisman  wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  be  easy.  But  Lisman  also  has  the  luxury  to  devote  his  undivided  at-­ tention  to  the  campaign,  and  he  has  listened  to  a  wide  group  of  Vermonters  on  a  wide  variety  of  issues  over  the  past  several  years.  He  gets  Vermont  in  a  way  Tarrant  never  did.  Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  also  focused  on  a  tight  business-­oriented  agenda:  job  growth,  quality  education,  affordable  health  care,  government  accountability  and  ethics,  lowering  the  cost  of  living,  and  government  competency  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  pocketbook  issues  that  draw  supporters.  Assuming  Scott  opts  to  run  for  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  top  job,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  be  a  close  race  to  follow.

Letters to the Editor Solar  array  a  better  choice  than  fracking  for  energy I  was  raised  in  rural  upstate  New  York  and  saw  some  of  the  prob-­ lems  that  come  with  fracking.  As  a  result,  I  have  a  great  appreciation  for  alternative,  clean,  renewable  power,  like  solar  power.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  not  an  engineer,  but  I  try  to  see  and  think  about  whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  go-­ ing  on  around  me.  With  fracking,  the  water  being  used  is  4,000  feet  down,  but  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  it  still  part  of  the  hydraulic  cycle?  Someday  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  be  up  here  with  our  regular  drinking  water.

Even  drilling  test  wells  to  look  for  gas  can  cause  problems,  such Â

as  the  time  a  driller  got  his  gear  hung  up  600  or  700  feet  down.  He  tried  using  extremely  high-­pres-­ sure  water  to  dislodge  the  obstruc-­ tion.  Instead,  the  pressure  forced  itself  out  through  the  fractures  in  the  limestone  shale  formations.  Homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  wells  became  gey-­ sers.  It  was  a  mess,  and  it  ruined  the  local  drinking  water  supply.  My  family  and  I  all  agree  that  solar  is  an  important  part  of  a  clean  energy  future.  We  agreed  that  an  unused  portion  of  our  prop-­ erty  would  be  a  great  location  for  a  Community  Solar  Array  (CSA). Â

We  hope  to  help  the  environment,  reduce  our  own  carbon  footprint  and  help  others  in  our  commu-­ nity,  who  may  not  be  able  to  put  solar  panels  on  their  property,  do  the  same.   Having  worked  with  SunCommon  to  develop  a  site  plan  while  discussing  it  with  my  neighbors,  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  excited  about  the  possibilities.

Currently,  the  site  is  inaccessible  and  not  suitable  for  development  or  farming.  I  go  out  twice  a  year  and  brush  hog  it,  but  now  Sun-­ Common  will  take  care  of  that.  (See  Letter,  Page  5)

Letters to the Editor Many  helped  Back-­to-­School  Shops  thrive  over  years I  would  like  to  take  this  opportunity  to  thank  our  wonderful  community  for  the  years  of  support  to  the  Back-­ to-­School  Shop.  For  12  years  this  project  supplied  low-­income  families  with  children  in  grades  K-­9  with  needed  school  supplies  in  a  â&#x20AC;&#x153;shopâ&#x20AC;?  format  in  Middlebury,  Vergennes  and  Bristol  during  two  days  before  the  beginning  of  the  school  year.

This  would  not  have  been  possible  without  the  kind  of  local  engagement  and  interest  that  we  have  consistently  HQMR\HG 7KH JHQHURXV ÂżQDQFLDO VXS-­ SRUW IURP RXU GRQRUV ZDV VXIÂżFLHQW to  run  the  shop  from  year  to  year  without  any  additional  grant  writing.  The  two-­day  shops  were  run  by  en-­ thusiastic  volunteers  who  organized,  unpacked  (and  then  repacked  supplies  at  the  end)  and  came  to  help  in  the  three  shops.  One  volunteer  for  each  child  helped  with  the  â&#x20AC;&#x153;shopping.â&#x20AC;?  The  event  was  always  a  joyful  experience.

Danforth  Pewter  let  us  use  storage  space  in  their  building  from  year  to  year.  The  Middlebury  Union  High  School  football  team  showed  up  cheerfully  every  August  to  bring  the  stored  boxes  down  from  the  attic  space  and  transport  them  to  Middle-­ bury  Union  Middle  School  for  us  to Â

distribute,  and  then  returned  to  take  the  leftover  items  back  up  the  three  Ă&#x20AC;LJKWV RI ULFNHW\ VWDLUV LQWR VWRUDJH The  Little  Pressroom  has  helped  not  only  with  printing  but  also  with  volunteer  time.  The  Ben  Franklin  Store  has  ordered  certain  items  for  us  at  cost.  Local  churches  have  been  very  generous.  The  schools  have  been  consistently  cooperative.  The  United  Way  has  been  our  umbrella  organiza-­ tion  and  helped  us  in  countless  ways.

I  would  like  to  give  special  thanks  to  Bonnie  McCardell,  without  whose  original  vision  and  commitment  this  whole  project  would  not  have  hap-­ pened.  The  general  feeling  for  this Â

project  has  always  been:  â&#x20AC;&#x153;This  is  our  community,  these  are  our  children,  our  schools  and  our  future  citizens  who  need  a  bit  of  our  time  and  sup-­ port,  letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  do  it.â&#x20AC;?

It  is  good  to  know  that  the  idea  of  the  shop  will  continue,  albeit  in  a  dif-­ ferent  form  through  the  schools,  and  that  we,  as  a  community,  can  continue  to  help  the  children  who  need  it.  To  all  of  the  good  people  who  have  been  engaged  in  the  Back-­to-­School  Shop  over  the  years  I  would  like  to  offer  my  sincere  thanks.  It  would  not  have  been  possible  without  you.

Dunneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  candidacy  sets  up  a  Democratic  primary  contest  with  at  least  one  other  candidate,  House  Speaker  Shap  Smith,  who  announced  his  bid  for  governor  last  month.  A  third  potential  contender,  Sue  Minter,  the  secretary  of  the  Agency  of  Transportation,  is  mull-­ ing  a  race  as  well.

It  is  the  responsibility  of  the  town  school  board  to  appoint  a  qualified  person  to  fill  this  vacancy  until  an  election  at  a  special  meeting  or  the  next  annual  meeting  is  held.

Dunne  said.

Dunne  has  been  making  noises  about  a  run  since  June  and  has  engaged  in  a  self-­promotion  campaign  via  email.  He  registered  as  a  candidate  for  governor  in  July.  Several  times  a  week,  he  blasts  recipients  with  a  testimonial  from  an  individual  supporter.

But  Dunne  said  he  wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  prepared  to  make  his  candidacy  public,  until  he  found  â&#x20AC;&#x153;the  right  team,â&#x20AC;?  and  raised  enough  money  to  get  started.

To  gauge  the  interest  of  voters,  the  campaign  is  holding  19  community  organizing  events  in  all  14  counties.

Dunne  says  he  wants  to  â&#x20AC;&#x153;really  listen  to  peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  concerns  and  where  they  see  opportunities.â&#x20AC;?

He  will  make  a  formal  announce-­ ment  at  the  end  of  September.

Dunne  served  four  terms  in  the  House  and  two  in  the  Senate.  He  ran  an  unsuccessful  campaign  for  lieutenant  governor  in  2006.

As  a  result,  there  was  no  â&#x20AC;&#x153;golden  ticketâ&#x20AC;?  or  confetti  storm  to  fete  the  2  millionth  rider.  But  the  organiza-­ tion  dispensed  goodie  bags  during  a  â&#x20AC;&#x153;free  fare  dayâ&#x20AC;?  on  Aug.  25.  ACTR  also  passed  out  free  doughnuts,  coffee  and  games  at  its  bus  shelter  on  Merchants  Row  in  downtown  Middlebury.  Staff  and  organization  directors  boarded  buses  to  thank  rid-­ ers  for  their  support  throughout  the  years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  are  really  proud  of  this  mile-­ stone,â&#x20AC;?  ACTR  board  Chairman  Adam  Lougee  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  have  seen  growth  not  only  in  the  number  of  riders,  but  in  the  number  of  commu-­ nities  we  serve.â&#x20AC;?

The  growth  of  ACTR  has  been  swift  and  exponential,  particularly  during  Moultonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  13-­year  tenure.

He  noted  that  back  in  2002,  ACTR  was  staffed  by  11  full-­time  employ-­ ees  and  22  volunteers,  working  with  an  annual  budget  of  roughly  $700,000.  The  organization  now  has  a  workforce  of  33  full-­time-­ equivalent  positions,  a  network  of  44  volunteers  and  an  annual  budget  of  around  $3  million.

By  the  end  of  2001,  ACTR  had  delivered  a  total  of  200,000  rides  in  its  history.  That  number  had  jumped  to  a  million  in  2009,  and  has  again  doubled  in  just  six  years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  I  got  here  (in  2002),  there  were  only  eight  ACTR  bus  stop  signs  in  the  entire  county,â&#x20AC;?  Moulton  recalled.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now  there  are  more  than  90.â&#x20AC;?

Three  years  ago,  ACTR  was  ZHGJHG LQWR UHQWHG RIÂżFH VSDFH LQ the  Community  Services  Center  on  Boardman  Street.  Two  years  ago,  VWDWH DQG IHGHUDO RIÂżFLDOV KHOSHG FXW the  ribbon  on  a  new,  $4.3  million  public  transportation  hub  building  off  Creek  Road  that  easily  accom-­ PRGDWHV $&75ÂśV VWDII DQG EXV Ă&#x20AC;HHW ACTR  currently  offers  the  Mid-­ dlebury  Shuttle  Bus;Íž  the  Tri-­Town Â

Shuttle  (serving  Middlebury,  Bristol  and  Vergennes);Íž  the  seasonal  Snow  Bowl  Shuttle;Íž  the  Burlington  Link  Express  (between  Middlebury  and  Burlington  via  Vergennes);Íž  the  Rut-­ land  Connector  (through  Brandon);Íž  and  the  Route  116  Commuter  (be-­ tween  Middlebury  and  Burlington  via  Bristol).  The  organization  still  arranges  rides  for  individuals  who  either  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  live  along  one  of  the  set  routes  or  are  physically  unable  to  ride  a  bus.

Moulton  took  some  time  last  week  WR UHĂ&#x20AC;HFW RQ WKH YROXPH RI ULGHV WKDW ACTR  has  dispensed.  And  he  noted  that  there  is  a  deeper  story  behind  the  numbers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  lot  of  rides,  and  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  lot  of  community  impact,â&#x20AC;?  Moulton  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  are  helping  people  have  access  to  work,  schools,  grocery  stores,  medical  appointments,  can-­ cer  treatments,  dialysis  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  and  all  of  these  things  are  included  in  those  2  million  rides.  The  collective  im-­ pact  of  2  million  rides,  in  my  mind,  is  just  enormous,  in  terms  of  differ-­ ence  we  have  been  able  to  make  in  hundreds  and  hundreds  of  peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  lives.â&#x20AC;?

Moulton  relishes  the  individual  stories  he  hears  from  regular  users  of  ACTR  services.  For  example,  he  cited  the  case  of  a  local  single  mom  who  must  leave  early  for  work  but  takes  comfort  in  knowing  that  her  disabled  child,  accompanied  by  a  companion,  will  safely  get  to  school  thanks  to  an  ACTR  bus.

A  substantial  percentage  of  ACTR  riders  are  youths  and  senior  citizens,  according  to  Moulton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In  general,  our  population  is  ag-­ ing,  and  it  is  creating  more  mobil-­ ity  issues  for  people,â&#x20AC;?  he  said  of  the  local  demand  for  public  transporta-­ tion.

7E RE STILL KEEPING BUSY WITH ENTRIES FOR THE 'ARDEN 'AME 7E DO STILL HAVE A FEW CATEGORIES WITH NO ENTRIES AT ALL SO YOU COULD STILL BE A WINNER !RE YOU GROWING PUMPKINS RUTABAGAS OR TURNIPS "RING YOUR BIGGEST ONE BY TO ENTER IN OUR 'AME We had a visitor from far away in Sudbury last week. "RUD ,EEDOM said he was in Middlebury anyway and wanted to come in and enter a tomato into our Game. It was the biggest one weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen at 18.75 inches around! That means he takes over the frontrunner spot! $ONNA "EZANSON came back to see us last week with lots of beautiful vegetables. She brought in some very pretty rainbow chard to show off and a lovely curry squash. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have categories for them, but we love to see new things. She also brought in our first cantaloupe of the summer that measured 18 inches around. Of the many carrots she came in with, the largest one was 13 inches long and 8.25 inches around. The potato was 5.5 inches long and 9.5 inches around. Her beet was large enough to take over the lead! The beet was 15 inches around. Her pepper was 12 inches around by 12.25 inches around. All her amazing veggies were grown in her garden in Weybridge.

!NNA "ERG and her dad, Eric, have never played our Garden Game before, but we remembered Anna from her winning entry in a past coloring contest weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had.

Anna and Eric said their garden in Middlebury hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been amazing this summer, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mostly due to them not being very good gardeners. We know that canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be true, since the cucumbers they brought in were so impressive! They looked very different, but measured to be exactly the same size. They were 25 inches long and 8 inches around. They take over the lead for the category!

'ARY -ILLER stopped by to show us a super long green bean from his garden in Middlebury. His record setting bean from 2013 was 34.75 inches long. This one was very close at 33.5 inches long! Gary has been enjoying playing our Garden Game and still holds many of the frontrunner spots.

3ARAH -C'RATH and her daughter stopped in last week to show us a massive zucchini she grew in her garden in South Starksboro. The giant vegetable was 20 inches long by 22 inches around. It was not quite big enough to take over the lead. Sarah said she has a couple more like this one at home, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not sure if they are larger.

+ELLEY -ILLS has been a player in our Garden Game before. She came back this year with our first cauliflower of the summer. She grew it in her garden in Pittsford. It was 16.5 inches across. We think it will be tough to beat!

2OGER 3CARBOROUGH made it in just in time last week to be entered into this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s frontrunners.

He brought in a big yellow pepper from his garden in Leicester. Roger said he has been watching the beets in his garden to see if he has one large enough to take over the lead. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worried he planted them too close together, so theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be long and not very big around. The pepper he brought in was big enough to take the lead at 16.5 inches around by 12.5 inches around.

Since  it  began  producing  shows  15  years  ago,  Town  Hall  Theater  has  been  blessed  with  four  photog-­ raphers  who  have  chronicled  nearly  every  production:  Trent  Campbell,  Cindi  Duff,  Max  Kraus  and  Ernie Â

Then,  at  8:30  p.m.  on  Friday,  the  Justin  Perdue  Group  will  perform.  This  adventurous  band  delves  into  everything  from  ballads  and  blues  to  modal  jazz  and  funky  soul  with  their  unique  repertoire  of  original  compo-­ sitions,  standards  and  post-­bop  jazz.

HORSES  CAN  MAKE  wonderful  companions  to  those  who  understand  their  behavior  and  how  to  UHPDLQ VDIH DURXQG WKHVH PDJQL¿ FHQW DQLPDOV

Horses  are  beautiful,  large  and  powerful  animals.  Though  some  people  grow  up  around  horses,  many  have  had  just  brief  encounters  with  horses  or  enjoyed  them  from  afar.  Unpredictable  and  awe-­inspiring,  horses  require  constant  care,  and  those  who  interact  with  horses  should  know  how  to  act  around  horses  to  reduce  their  risk  of  injury.

Contrary  to  popular  belief,  all  horse-­related  accidents  do  not  happen  when  riding  a  horse.  While  many  injuries  result  from  falling  off  of  a  horse.  Injury  also  can  occur  during  routine  daily  horse  chores  such  as  feeding,  grooming  and  tack-­ ing.  Even  the  smallest  or  most  mild-­ mannered  horses  have  the  potential  to  hurt  someone  if  they  are  scared  or  startled.  While  no  one  should  ever  fear  a  horse,  certain  recommenda-­ tions  can  help  you  avoid  kicks,  bites  or  trampled  feet  when  interacting  with  horses. Â&#x2021; 8QGHUVWDQG WKH DQLPDO Understanding  horses  can  reduce  your  risk  of  injury.  Horses  are  prey  animals  in  the  wild,  and  they  are  genetically  predisposed  to  outrun-­ ning  predators.  Domestic  horses  PD\ VWLOO KDYH WKDW Âż JKW RU Ă&#x20AC; LJKW behavior  ingrained  in  them.  Should  a  horse  become  startled,  it  may  react  by  running  away.  The  goal  is  to  remain  calm  and  quiet  around  a  horse.  Sudden  moves,  especially  when  the  horse  is  getting  to  know  you,  can  cause  a  horse  to  kick  out  or  shy  (jump  sideways).  Â&#x2021; 5HFRJQL]H LQMXU\ LOOQHVV RU discomfort.  All  bets  are  off  if  a  horse  is  sick  or  injured.  Pain  can  cause  any  animal  to  act  out  of  character.  A  horse  in  pain  may  be  sluggish  or  unresponsive,  while  another  may  act  aggressively.  Be  extra  careful  around  sick  horses  or  when  engaging  in  any  activities  that  may  make  the  animal  uncomfortable.  Check  the  horse  for  injuries  or  soft  spots  before  groom-­ LQJ 3RRU Âż WWLQJ WDFN FDQ PDNH D horse  uncomfortable,  and  the  horse  may  attempt  to  nip  at  you  or  the  tack  when  tightening  the  girth.  Â&#x2021; 8VH SURSHU UHVWUDLQW $FFRUGLQJ

to  Blue  Cross  for  Pets,  horses  should  be  tied  up  when  they  are  being  groomed  or  tacked-­up,  even  if  they  are  in  a  stable.  This  enables  you  to  PRYH TXLHWO\ DQG FRQÂż GHQWO\ DURXQG the  horse.  When  grooming  a  horse,  make  sure  the  animal  is  wearing  D ZHOO Âż WWLQJ KHDG FROODU DQG WKDW the  lead  rope  is  secured  through  a  loop  attached  to  the  tying  up  ring.  Horse  handlers  should  remain  calm  EXW FRQÂż GHQW DURXQG KRUVHV DV WKH animal  will  get  its  cues  from  its  handler.

Dundon’s art shows 25 years of horse motifs MIDDLEBURY — The Na-­ tional Museum of the Morgan Horse (NMMH) in Middlebury announces a new exhibit of equine pottery and art titled “Back in the Saddle: 25 Years of Horse Play.”

This exhibit featuring a variety of work by Stacey Stanhope Dundon includes oil paintings, functional dinnerware, and decorative large-­ scale horse heads. The show opens on Friday, Sept. 11, with a recep-­ tion from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., and will run until the end of November.

The opening reception will be a Middlebury Arts Walk event.

Dundon is a potter who teaches at the Middlebury Studio School and at Stratford House Pottery in Orwell. She is a featured artist at the Brandon Artists’ Guild and several other galleries throughout Vermont and Georgia. Her pottery is well known for its bold style, which has a wood-­cut look. It is hand thrown and salt fired;; the decoration is done using wax resist and painting in the negative areas.

After the wax dries, she paints a black slip over the whole piece.

It is then high fired in a reduction kiln with just enough salt added to create a slight sheen. Her work often features horses, farm animals and landscape scenes.

This spring, when Dundon was helping her parents move out of their house in Georgia, she discovered some work she had completed as an MFA student at Wichita State University in 1995: full-­size ceramic horse heads.

When she saw them, she instantly thought of sharing them with the community by installing them at NMMH. NMMH’s mission is to educate the public about the Morgan horse and its importance in Vermont and United States history. Amy Minch-­ er, NMMH Director, is excited about the collaboration, “Stacey’s collection of horse-­related art will fit perfectly with the museum’s other pieces. The horse heads in particular are so detailed that they will give visitors the experience of seeing the closest version to a live horse.” Dundon will also have some work available for sale at the museum.

Located at 34 Main St. in Mid-­ dlebury, the NMMH is open from Tuesday through Friday, 1-­5 pm. and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

For more information, call the museum at (802) 388-­1639 or visit the museum’s Facebook page to find out the latest information about events and exhibits.

HORSE-­THEMED POTTERY is featured in a multimedia exhibit of works by Stacey Stanhope Dundon opening at the National Museum of the Morgan Horse in downtown Middlebury on Friday, Sept. 11. A reception will be held that evening from 5-­7 p.m. during the Middlebury Arts Walk.
