Scarecrow festival livens up Farmington Avenue By Ashley Kus
The Berlin Citizen
Eighteen funny, scary, and smiling creations lined Farmington Avenue this month in the hopes of being chosen as Berlin’s best scarecrow. The 11th annual Scarecrow and Fall Foliage Festival kicked off its street display at the beginning of October with businesses, organizations, and families from throughout town contributing their best scarecrow creations. This year’s big winner was a Cinderella themed scarecrow from Dance Legacy-Caroline’s Dance Center LLC. The scarecrow display, set up at T.D Bank on Farmington Avenue, consisted
of Cinderella in her signature blue gown, a giant pumpkin, a fairy godmother, and a banner reading “Bibiddi Bobiddi Boo.” Terri Noyes, a co-chairman of the festival and Berlin Parks and Recreation event coordinator, said the annual fall festival is a great way to get the community involved. “It’s nice to see what people come up with,” she said. “It takes a lot of hard work to create them.” This year’s scarecrow judges consisted of four people, one being the mayor, Rachel Rochette. Creations were placed in one of four categories: “A” being a scareSee Scarecrows / Page A10
For the 11th year, this month, a variety of scarecrow creations lined Farmington Avenue, including this recreation of the Burger family from TV’s “Bob’s Burgers” family, as part of the Scarecrow and Fall Foliage Festival.

More than that though, she said the event lifted the spirits of attendees. “It’s a fun family event and it’s nice Tails were wagging at Berlin’s third annual Bark for Life, Saturday, Oct. 17, to see the relationships of the canines as dozens of canines and their owners and their owners,” Kipphut said. She said the driving force behind the walked to benefit the American Cancer Society. The air was cold but the atmo- benefit are the volunteers.

Eversource warns of ‘green dot scam’ paid debit card, commonly referred to as the green dot scam, at a certain location. “These scams work by scaring customers and catching them off guard, hoping they’ll ignore their better judgment and make a payment or provide personal information,” said Penni Conner, senior vice president and chief customer officer at Eversource. “If any of our customers suspect someone is impersonating an Eversource representative – whether on the phone or in-person – even if they show identification, they should contact us immediately or call the local police.” Eversource representatives never demand instant payment over the phone and don’t require the use of prepaid debit cards.

dog cookies. “They’re cookies that are upside down hearts made into little pink bikini tops and then decorated with the breast cancer ribbon,” Leitao explained. All proceeds from the cookie sale went to Dirty Dog’s Bark for Life team. The business also raised money with paper paw prints that customers could buy with their dog’s name to be displayed around the store. A collection bucket was also set up for customers to donate money to the cause.
Leitao said more than $1,000 was raised. “We already have plans for next year on what we will do, what we will improve on, and what we will include,” she said. Bark for Life is inclusive when it comes to the cause. Kipphut said the event benefits canines going through cancer too. This is evident during the Bark for Life survivor lap, which takes place halfway through the day, when cancer survivors and their furry friends, some of whom have also fought cancer, take a special lap around the track. They receive applause from the other participants lining the track as they pass by. “This is basically a mini version of our Relay for Life where canines are invited,” said Kipphut, pointing out that the event got started after numerous requests came in to bring dogs to the Relay, which the ACS had to decline. Now, Bark for Life is a hit among the dog-lovers in town. “We have residents come out year after year to walk with their dogs,” Kipphut said. To donate, visit www.relayforlife.org/barkberlinct. Another Bark for Life event will be held Saturday, Nov. 1, at the Southington Drive-In.

For popular eateries, weekend business is their “bread and butter.” So when a local eatery recently got a phone call from someone claiming to be from Eversource, threatening to shut off their power in two hours unless they made an immediate payment, the owner panicked. After calling Eversource to confirm the status of her account, the owner realized she was the target of a scam. This type of scam continues to plague small businesses around the country and usually at the most inopportune times. Callers here in Connecticut, claim to be from Eversource and tell them their service is scheduled to be shut off, and then pressure them to make an immediate payment by purchasing a pre-

Dear Berlin Residents, In two recent letters to area newspapers, A Berlin Democrat mailer, and an angry rant at the Oct. 5th Town Council meeting, Democrat Deputy Mayor William Rasmussen has made statements that are purposely misleading and untrue. Republicans have been graded by the Berlin Democrats for an “F” for voting NO on the Tax Lien sales. But I could not in good conscience, vote for a plan to hire a law firm whose own attorney wrote the tax lien law, lobbied for it to be passed here in CT, oh and by the way, is the only law firm in CT that can perform these tax lien sales. We felt that this service should have been put out to bid to help keep the process honest. We have been given by the Democrats a grade of an “F” for not accepting Small Town Economic Assistance Program grants or S.T.E.A.P. grants. We voted NO for ONE grant for the possible boulevard or driveway for the proposed police station. Why should we accept money for a project that was soundly defeated by referendum by the taxpayers with no guarantee that this would be the location of the proposed police station? Republicans have voted for open space grants, sidewalk grants, and other STEAP grants prior to the police station boulevard/driveway referendum vote and will continue to do so. We have been graded an “F” to not accepting an $11 million dollar grant to help pay for the over budget high school project. Mr. Rasmussen’s two op-ed letters, have referenced this $11 million dollar figure. I have to ask, where did this figure come from? Just a simple internet search and a fourth grader can discover that the grant was $15 million. An article from the Berlin Patch, dated June 12, 2013, written by Robert Mayer, quotes former Mayor Adam Salina: “The reality is we were short $15 million and this legislative waiver will give us $19 million”. The actual legislative bill, Senate Bill No. 876 (from the January 2013 session), which states in part of Section 502, Part D, “Notwithstanding any provision of the general statutes or any special act, charter or ordinance providing that binding contracts not be entered into, or bonds issued, that exceed the approved appropriation, the town of Berlin may enter into binding contracts”……”provided such binding contracts or bond issues do not exceed such approved appropriation by more than fifteen million dollars……” . So I have to ask, was the project $11 million, $15 million, or $19 million dollars over budget? For someone who has stated he wants “just the facts” Mr. Rasmussen and the rest of the Berlin Democrats have gotten this wrong. The one thing to keep in mind, that this proposed legislation, whether it was born in our Town hall, or up in Hartford, was written to circumvent our Town Charter so that you did not have a chance to discuss this state grant either by referendum or a town wide hearing. All it took was a simple vote by the Town Council to accept this money. This precedent, will now increase all our taxes on a statewide basis, as almost every “renovate as new” school project across the State, since the Berlin High School bid, has been over budget, and most other towns have reached out to their legislators for their own “Berlin Bailout” for their over budget school projects. If I was to grade these recent comments and expensive mailed flier from the Democrats, I would have to give a grade of “F”. When you don’t respect other opinions or ideas, it is easy to give yourself and A! Remember in November to vote for Transparency, Responsibility, and Integrity, and vote for the team of Brenden Luddy, Dave Evans, Charles Paonessa, and Mark Kaczynksi. 29268-01

Little Free Library is open for business In conjunction with National Friends of the Library Week, The Friends of the Berlin-Peck Memorial Library donated a Little Free Library to the Town of Berlin. Little Free Libraries are everywhere, an international movement, engaging individuals, families, neighborhoods and communities. The premise is simple: take a book, leave a book. Berlin’s LFF will live at the Berlin Amtrak Train Station at 51 Depot Road. What better place to read than on a train ride? While the station and tracks are being renovated,
the LFF will remain inside the station. When construction is completed, it will be mounted outside so that travelers will be able to choose a free book at any time. The Friends will keep the box stocked with donations to their on-going book sale. “These little libraries not only make everyone smile, they get people excited about reading,” explained Berlin-Peck Memorial Library Director Helen Malinka. “It’s another way to get books into people’s hands, and that’s what we’re all about!” — Press Release

Obituaries Ronda Agostinucci She was co-owner of Valley Rehabilitation Center and practiced for over 35 years. Her specialty was TMJ therapy and she was considered one of the top therapists in the U.S. She taught at Quinnipiac in the Graduate Program for 16 years. Ronda was always rated highly as a professor and helped to shape the practice of many students. She formed a special relationship with her patients as well and many of them becoming friends after she retired. Ronda impacted the lives of many of her patients, often finding the best treatment option when people had lost any hope of recovery. She had special intuitive skills that transcended into her daily practice. Ronda also had a special relationship with the energy and people of Sedona, Arizona, where she had a second home. She introduced many of her family and friends to the area and built many lasting memories with each of them. She loved to hike the area and was affectionately called “Red Rock Ranger Ronda” for her knowledge of the area and her hiking skills. She formed close relationships with neighbors and

trio since grade school. They grew up together and have a tight bond as friends. They supported her throughout this time and were part of the family, always finding time to help. She also has a large group of high school friends who supported her during her illness, notably Peg and Frank Facciolo, MaryBeth and Mark McCarthy, Hank and Mary Matuszak, Ernie and Donna Pettinelli, and Vern and Sandy Pindar. There would often be celebrations to highlight a milestone in Ronda’s treatment or just to enjoy each other’s company. These were special moments that helped to keep Ronda’s energy staying positive. This entire group went to Sedona, Arizona on vacation and all looked to Ronda to lead the group through the area. It was a memorable experience never forgotten and very supportive of Ronda’s spirit. She approached every day by staying positive, thanking God for another day on this earth and doing her part to create the miracle. In a discussion with Deacon Joseph Kane she told him she was afraid to go to sleep because she did not know if she would
wake up. He said “Ronda, you will always wake up, it just may not be here.” This gave her great comfort over the last weeks of her life. She was deeply religious and inspired us all with her faith. Ronda felt she had a higher purpose on this earth. She had affected the lives of so many in a positive way, and was always excited to meet new people and talk. As she would tell of her experiences, everyone came away feeling influenced by her energy, spirit and love. She will continue to serve her purpose from heaven. Ronda will forever be in our hearts and a part of our lives. Calling hours will be 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 29, at Farrell’s Funeral Home, 110 Franklin Square, New Britain and again at 9 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 30, at the funeral home. A funeral Mass will be held on Friday, Oct. 30, at 10 a.m. at St. Joseph Church, 195 S. Main St., New Britain.

She found many of these in Sedona and traveled there often for healing. It was truly a gift to be a part of her experience and she shared it readily with everyone.

crow made by an adult or adult organization, “B” made by a business, “C” made by a child or children’s organization, and category “F” made by a family. First, second and third place are awarded to each of the categories, as well as one honorable mention. All creations were judged on use of materials, theme, construction, and creativity. Winners are awarded gift cards that can be used or donated to charity. Some local businesses and organizations that participated in making a scarecrow friend this year included; Good Cause Gifts, American Cancer Society-Berlin Relay for Life, Berlin Senior Center, Dance Step, Creative Clay Spot, and Ber-
lin-Peck Memorial Library. The Senior Center won first place for best adult organization. Their scarecrow was seated at a table in front of Dunkin’ Donuts sporting sunglasses, a hat, and a coffee cup. Bingo sheets were spread out on the table with a jar that read: “Bingo Money.” A big sign in front of the table introduced “Mabel the Sr. Center Bingo Queen.” In the business category, Town of Berlin Homemaking services was awarded first place for their scarecrow holding cleaning supplies and wearing a mop as hair. A bucket of supplies sat next to the homemaker scarecrow, which was displayed at Volunteer Park. The children’s organization category had many scarecrow
creators such as Berlin FIRST Robotics, and Berlin Lacrosse Association, to name a few. In the end, the New Britain Youth Museum at Hungerford’s scarecrow friend was the first-place winner. Several families and family-based organizations got involved as well. Raising Berlin took the first place prize in their category with their Lego-inspired display featuring two characters from The Lego Movie. The festival grows year after year with more businesses and organizations around town getting involved. Noyes says she and co-chair Rose Wollman got together to make the event possible 11 years ago and it has been an October tradition ever since.

Kensington Orchards Trail a feast for the eyes By Ashley Kus
The Berlin Citizen
New England boasts an array of colors this time of year as the leaves start to turn. Now they are reaching their peak with brighter and widespread colors. Berlin has many trails that are ideal for leaf peeping this month, such as; Beckley Quarry at Wethersfield Road, Bicentennial Park with the Metacomet Loop and Red trails, the Orange trail at Pistol Creek, and the Hatchery Brook Conservation Area, to name a few. The newest addition is Kensington Orchards Trail which gives hikers access to both the Hatchery and Bicentennial Park trails. The Orchards, located on the Chamberlain Highway, offers plenty of foliage to view while walking the various loops. Parking is available right off the highway. Larry Papandrea, a Berlin resident for nearly 30 years, was on his second walk through the trails Friday afternoon. It’s a nice walk,” he said, “not as rocky as other trails.” He said it’s a good workout and offers different views of Berlin, especially those of the surrounding farmland. With
The Kensington Orchards Trail offers breathtaking views for hikers. the trails’ hilltop location the views are endless, he says. The trail winds through the former Girl Scout Camp Meribrite and comes to a fork in the path with a map directing hikers to various trails. There’s a trail for easy, moderate and difficult walks. There are several “loops” or trails of different lengths, some reaching a mile in
length. The five loops are the Blue Loop, the Orange Loop, the Red Loop, the Yellow Loop and the Metacomet Loop in Bicentennial Park. All the trails connect at different points indicated by the map. Bill and Laurie Fuller, New Britain residents, were pleasantly surprised during their first day hiking the trails. “It’s nice, a lot bigger than

ness closes its doors before I use my gift card? A competitor or another nearby business may offer some sort of credit for the gift card to attract you as a new customer. Rule No. 1 is to use a gift card or certificate right away. You also want to use it as soon as possible because we tend to lose them. Typical estimates indicate 20 percent of gift cards are never redeemed. What if I don’t want the gift card? There are reputable websites where you can buy and sell gift cards and certificates. Some cards are worth more than others, but you can receive up to 70 percent of their value selling them online. If you want to purchase a gift card from one of these websites, you can find cards discounted up to 30 percent of their value.

Runners, fans flock to invitational
On Saturday, Oct. 17, the McGee Middle School cross country team hosted its 17th annual cross country invitational. Nearly 1,000 athletes from numerous area schools participated over two courses traversing Sage Park. The course for the sixth grade girls and boys teams was 1.7 miles long, and the course for the seventh and eighth grade teams, 2.2 miles. Participants enjoyed near perfect running conditions, as the weather was seasonably cool and clear, and were cheered on by hundreds of fans who, because of the design of the two courses, had several easily-accessible vantage points.

Football, girls soccer undefeated no more XC squads show speed at CCC’s By Nate Brown The Berlin Citizen
Football The Redcoats lost their first game of the season, to Avon, on Friday, Oct. 23 by a final count of 21-14. Despite a furious fourth-quarter comeback attempt by the Redcoats, it ’Coats proved to be Notes too little, too late as the Falcons’ touchdowns through the first three quarters turned out to be insurmountable. Quarterback Jack Lynch hooked up with wide receiver Jake Loiselle twice on long touchdown passes to account for Berlin’s scoring. Lynch found Loiselle for a 40-yard score with seven minutes remaining in the game’s final quarter. The junior under center found the
senior with a little over one minute remaining, this time from 30 yards out. Giancarlo Tufano converted both his extra point attempts. Lynch finished the game 23for-29 with 237 yards passing. Owen Taylor added 70 rushing yards on 16 carries, as Loiselle and Ryan Cop finished as Berlin’s top receivers with 80 and 60 yards, respectively. Nick Cardello led the defensive charge for the Redcoats, ending the contest with nine total tackles (two for loss) while Alex Fleeton (seven tackles) and Patrick Ladas (six) also made strong contributions. Berlin (5-1) will look to rebound in a Halloween showdown with Plainville (3-3) Saturday, Oct. 31 at Southington High School. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m.

Michaela Dehm recorded eight saves for the Lady Redcoats as Tess Atkinson scored the team’s lone goal. The girls ended their week on a high note, stomping on Bristol Eastern, 6-2, at Sage Park. Atkinson was on fire, scoring four goals in the contest while Michelle Grieco found the back of the net twice. Dehm hauled in three saves to help keep Berlin in control. Following the dismantling of the Lancers, Berlin has scored five or more goals in seven games this season and have never allowed more than two goals to an opponent in a game this year.

third and fourth, respectively, with scores of 134.00 and 129.75. Stephanie Humen and Olivia DeGroff both finished as double winners for the Redcoats. Humen finished first in the 50 meter freestyle in 27.58 and tops in the 100 backstroke with a time of 1:08.55. Both times marked season bests for the junior, and qualified her for the state championship meet in each event. DeGroff continued her impressive senior campaign, gaining top honors in the 100 butterfly and 100 breaststroke. She finished with times of 1:05.09 and 1:12.93, respectively. Although Berlin failed to finish off its foes, there were little victories along the way
as swimmers continued to shave seconds off in their individual events. Lauren Ferraguto was one of those benefactors, as she dropped more than eight seconds combined in both her 200 individual medley and 100 backstroke events, finishing with times of 3:06.52 and 1:24.80. Kailey Lacasse also impressed, setting personal bests in the 200 freestyle (2:33.70) and 500 freestyle (6:53.32). The girls will next compete in the CCC Divisional Championship, set for Tuesday, Nov. 3 (diving) and Wednesday, Nov. 4 (swimming).

The Redcoats saw their postseason hopes dwindle when a 0-2 week dropped them to 6-10 on the year. Berlin started the recent stretch by falling to Bristol Eastern in three sets, 25-11, 25-9, 25-19. Megan Pskowski led the way for Berlin with five kills and one block while Amanda Lee added 12 digs. The girls were then shut out by Platt on Senior Night (25-12, 25-8, 25-21). The team only managed five total kills in that one. Angie and Alex Perrone combined for 15 digs while Nina D’Amato recorded three aces. At press time, Berlin had two matches remaining, and needs to win both to qualify for the postseason.

fraud continues to be a problem, and offers these tips to avoid becoming the victim of gift card fraud: Inspect the card at the cash register – A growing problem is that criminals scratch away the wax on the back of the card to reveal its serial number, put it back into its packaging and empty the card with that information. If you can see the card’s number on the back, so can everyone else. Inspect gift cards bought from corner stores which may be on a rack away from the eyes of the merchant. The safest gift cards are found at the cash register. Avoid buying gift cards through classified ads – Buyer beware. You may end
