Maritime  Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  annual  youth  rowing  race.  Vergennes  Union  High  School  took  first  place  in  the  novice  four-­oar  division.

With  more  than  140  kids  in  longboats  and  as  many  specta-­ tors  on  the  dock,  this  event  is  a Â

highlight  of  the  rowing  season  on  Lake  Champlain.  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Champlain  Longboats  student  teams  will  continue  to  participate  later  this  fall  at  rowing  events  in  Massachusetts  and  on  Otter  Creek.

rowed  in  a  series  of  six  combined-­ time  heats.  The  exciting  conclu-­ sion  to  the  five-­hour  event  is  the  mess-­about  where  rowers  are  mixed  randomly  and  compete  in  one  last  Burlington  Breakwater  sprint. Â

Introductory workshop in audio editing starts Nov. 15 MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Radio  producer  Erica  Heilman  will  offer  a  two-­day  introduction  to  digital  audio  editing  on  Friday  and  Saturday,  Nov.  15  and  16,  at  the  Vermont  Folklife  Center  headquarters  in  Middlebury.

Audio  stories  have  the  capacity  to  open  a  window  into  another  world,  and  they  can  be  shared  in  a  number  of  ways.  They  can  be  broadcast  on  the  radio,  streamed  online,  combined  with  images  to  create  audio  slide-­ shows,  or  used  to  transform  a  stand-­ ing  exhibit.  Recording  audio  is  increasingly  easy  in  the  digital  world,  and  digital  audio  editing  tools  make  it  easy  for  individuals  and  commu-­ nities  to  create  rich  and  provocative  sound  stories.

This  two-­day  workshop  offers  participants  an  introduction  to  the  techniques  of  digital  audio  editing.  2Q WKH ¿UVW GD\ SDUWLFLSDQWV ZLOO receive  a  quick  course  in  recording  technique  and  then  hit  the  streets  of  Middlebury  to  conduct  short  interviews.  Back  in  the  classroom,  these  recordings  will  be  used  as  raw  material  to  edit  together  short  audio  pieces.  By  the  end  of  two  days,  attendees  will  have  the  skills  to  begin  working  on  their  own  sound  stories  at  home.

This  workshop  is  intended  for  students;͞  community  members;͞  VWDII PHPEHUV RI QRQSUR¿W FXOWXUDO community,  and  social-­service  agen-­ cies;͞  as  well  as  professional  research-­ ers  interested  in  learning  more  about  digital  audio  editing.  No  editing  experience  is  required,  but  partici-­ SDQWV VKRXOG EH FRQ¿GHQW FRPSXWHU users.  The  workshop  is  taught  on  Macintosh  computers,  using  a  digital  editing  program  called  Soundtrack  Pro.  The  fundamental  skills  devel-­ oped  will  be  transferable  to  any  audio  editing  platform.

Instructor  Erica  Heilman  is  an  award-­winning  radio  producer.  Her  work  has  aired  on  NPRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Day  to  Dayâ&#x20AC;?  and  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hearing  Voices,â&#x20AC;?  KQED  San  Francisco,  WGBH  Boston,  935 DQG RWKHU SXEOLF UDGLR DIÂżOL-­ ates  nationwide.  Erica  also  offers  deep  experience  incorporating  audio  editing  and  production  within  an  educational  setting,  having  worked  with  high  school  students  as  a  part  of  Vermont  Folklife  Centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Youth  Radio  Vermont  program.

Biological  check  stations  will  be  open  from  9  a.m.  to  7  p.m.  on  Nov.  9  and  10.  Youth  hunters  who  bring  their  deer  to  a  biological  check  station  may  have  their  deer  examined  and  aged  by  a  biologist.  Youth  hunters  visiting  a  biological  check  station  on  those  dates  will  receive  a  youth  hunter  partici-­ pation  patch  and  successful  youth  hunters  will  also  receive  a  2013  Ver-­ mont  Hunter  Cooperator  Patch.

Workshop  teaches  writing  effective  job  descriptions MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  The  Addison  County  Economic  Development  Corp.  and  the  Vermont  Small  Business  Development  Center  on  Nov.  13  will  host  a  workshop  titled  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Job  Descriptions:  A  Job  Worth  Doing  Right.â&#x20AC;?

The  workshop,  the  latest  in  the  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Strengthening  Your  Businessâ&#x20AC;?  series,  will  help  business  owners  and  employees  learn  to  focus  on  making  the  job  description  the  foundation  of  nearly  every  human  resources  function.

Many  experts  feel  that  the  job  description  is  the  mother  of  all  HR  processes.  Everything,  from  recruit-­ ment  and  training  to  performance  evaluations  and  compensation,  stems  from  the  job  description.  Learning  to  understand  all  of  the  various  parts  of  the  employment  life-­cycle,  and  how  the  job  description  touches  them,  will  help  employers  take  the  job  descrip-­ tion  from  a  compliance  exercise  to  an  important  part  of  an  employee  devel-­ opment  plan.

An  up-­to-­date  job  description  can  be  used  for  recruiting,  performance  management  and  compensation.  This  workshop  will  review  practical  tips  on  how  to  use  the  description  in  these  key  processes  and  how  to  easily  keep  it  updated.  Attendees  will  learn  how  and  why  to  create  and  maintain  job  descriptions  that  involve  employees, Â

managers  and  HR  staff.  Those  who  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  have  a  job  description  process  yet  will  receive  basic  templates  and  support  in  starting  or  restarting  the  process.

It’s against the law to discriminate when advertising housing related activities.

Particularly on sites like Craigslist.

And it’s easier to break the law than you might think. You can’t say “no children” or “adults only.”

There is lots you can’t say. The federal government is watching for such discrimination.

Let us help you sift through the complexities of the Fair Housing Law. Stay legal. Stay on the right side of the nation’s Fair Housing Law. Call the Addison Independent at (802) 388-­4944.
