Graduates thank those who gave support By Devin Leith-Yessian The Citizen

After years of poring over tests and papers, the approximately 230 graduating Berlin High School students reveled in their achievements and thanked all those who supported them at the class of 2018 commencement ceremony on Sunday, June 24. Speaking before hundreds of family members and friends

See the complete list of graduates on page 14. gathered at Central Connecticut State University, valedictorian Ashley Bryant shared a memory of her father, Eric Bryant, slowing his pace in a road race to encourage her to finish. While her father came in last, he helped his daughter find the

strength to rush ahead to the finish line.

Berlin High School class of 2018 President Briana Lennehan said her peers have proven themselves to be motivated to learn from their mistakes.

"Without my dad on that day 6 years ago, I don't think I would have crossed the finish line at the ESPN 5K. And without my whole family for the last 18 years, I definitely would not be standing up here today,” Bryant said. “So I leave you all with the hope that you remember not only what you have done to get here, but also all of the peoSee Grads, A6

are family, food,” and not wealth, Biederman said.

A few years after quitting his job as an engineer, West Hartford resident Brent Biederman has brought a long abandoned farm back to life on the Chamberlain Highway.

He named the farm after his grandfather, who grew up on a chicken farm.

Rooster Rise Farm, 1301 Chamberlain Highway, will have its first open house on Sunday, July 1, with organically grown produce, cheese and chocolate for sale. The farm is just south of Southington Road. Farm Manager Clayton Beckett plants peppers at Rooster Rise Farm in Berlin. Devin Leith-Yessian, The Citizen

“The things you need in life

For its first summer in operation, Biederman plans to have 30 to 35 unique crops, planted on three of the farm’s approximately 27 acres. Green beans should be the first to sprout. He has also planted radishes, peas, peppers, tomatoes, melons and onions. After years of laying vacant, Biederman has spent two years converting the fallow

land and aging buildings into a productive farm, with help from Glastonbury resident Clayton Beckett, who manages Rooster Rise and another farm near UConn. “The property was very much in disarray,” Biederman said. Since many of the crops will not be ready for harvest in time for the open house, Biederman is looking to partner with farms to purchase their produce to show what they hope to grow into. “We’re looking to revive See Farm, A17

Tariffs lead to price hikes, uncertainty for area firms By Mary Ellen Godin Record-Journal staff

Area steel manufacturers face uncertainty and are passing higher costs to customers after exemptions on the Trump administration’s steel and aluminum tariffs expired. “We’re paying more now in tariffs,� said Chris Ulbrich, CEO of Ulbrich Steel & Specialty Metals Inc. in Wallingford and North Haven. “We buy from Europe and that’s a 25 percent increase.� Exemptions for materials from Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and the European Union expired June 1. The tariffs have brought higher prices for many manufacturers and construction firms, and considerable uncertainty for both importers and domestic manufacturers of steel and aluminum. The 25 percent steel and 10 percent aluminum tariffs enacted earlier this year were seen as a way to stop coun-

tries such as China from “dumping� steel into the U.S. market. Dumping is a practice of undercutting U.S. prices, often with support from government subsidies, and it has led to a sharp decrease in domestic steel production. The additional tax is expected to bring more business back to U.S. steel and aluminum mills, but the companies that buy steel, mainly manufacturers and construction firms, have started to feel the sting of higher domestic prices and supply disruptions. Ulbrich and others said domestic suppliers aren’t prepared to handle the increased volume. Ron Dziema, owner of Specialty Metal Fabrication Inc. on Cheshire Road in Meriden, and David Hunt, president of Berlin Steel, said the domestic steel mills began raising their prices before the tariffs were ordered. Prices have now increased by as

much as 40 percent. One of the largest steel mills in the country, Nucor Corp., which has an operation on Toelles Road in Wallingford, announced last week it expected significant earnings increases in its second quarter ending June 30. The company is headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina.

“Our improved earnings are the result of much stronger market conditions that we believe have been positively impacted by deregulation, tax reform and higher, stable oil prices,� the company said in a financial statement to investors. Stock prices at the end of the current quarter are expected to be double the $1 per diluted share

price last year at this time. For commercial builders, who have also been hit with 20 percent tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber, the cost of rebar and other metals already have gone up 15 to 20 percent from early this year. “These tariffs will translate See Steel, A8

If, for the good of the people, Connecticut can charge a set fee when you get a driver’s license to maintain state parks, and an environmental fee of a few dollars is tacked on to your receipt every time you buy a can of paint, I'm pretty sure a vet could charge a small, regulated, set fee and issue a dog license and submit accurate documentation to the town.

The Berlin boy’s skill and determination have led him to victory in several competitions and even earned him a spot in the 2018 U.S. Kids World Championship this summer in North Carolina. But before heading south for that tournament, the soonto-be Griswold Elementary School fourth grader hit the links Tuesday, June 19 with some of golf’s elite players at the Travelers Championship in Cromwell. Meyers was one of the youngest of the 40 golfers selected to participate in this year’s Eversource PGA TOUR Player Experience for Junior Golfers at the TPC River Highlands. “It’s like a dream. I’m so excited to get some tips from the pros,” Meyers said. “It’s unbelievable that I get to play with some of the best

players in the world, at the greatest golf tournament of the year.” Meyers was selected for the Player Experience based on a personal essay about his golf experience and how he could benefit from the opportunity to participate. In addition to playing with some of the pros, Meyers and the other participants attended private golf clinics, a Q-and-A session with the elite players, and a dinner reception. “This is an excellent opportunity for these young golfers. They are learning and developing lifelong skills through the game of golf from some of the games’ best,” said Eversource President of Corporate Citizenship Rod Powell. “We’re committed to serving the neighborhoods where we work and live and that includes supporting the health and well-being of the young people in our communities, which is why we are so proud to sponsor the Player Experience.” — Press Release

Invest in the future To the editor: Our schools are the reason so many of us moved (or moved back) to Berlin. Our town isn’t “small,” but we have maintained a “smalltown feel.” Our schools have an excellent reputation and accomplish so much with a tight budget; our students feel known, supported. Having neighborhood elementary schools is where this sense of community support begins. We should never stray from that. Many communities in districts that eliminated neighborhood schools in favor of

a pre-K-2, 3-5 model (or something similar) were not happy with the results. Tight-knit faculty at such schools resented the way it broke up well-functioning teams; parents resented having their children on long bus rides and having to drive 15-20 minutes across town, to and from school. And there is little doubt in our minds that students lost something special with that model: the opportunity to attend school with older siblings and neighbors, and the chance to build relationships with, learn from, and be inspired by older students in their schools. Each elementary school in our district provides the

same educational foundation with its own unique flair. Each school is like a family. Would any of us break up and reorganize a family just to save money? We likewise hope that our town would never consider eliminating neighborhood schools. One of the most troubling current trends in education is districts trying to run schools like businesses. That model does not work.

We love our children’s school. It feels like “home” to us. Our town would do well to remember that you cannot put a price tag on that feeling of community and support. Isabel Meagher Dorothy• FHA Foster Berlin • VA
