newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND TOWN — A theft at Dick’s Sporting Goods Store in Rutland Town was erroneously linked to a Bridport man, according to the Myrick family of Bridport. The retail store theft, which occurred July 18, had been first reported by Vermont State Police as being linked to the registration number of a truck owned Wright Myrick of Bridport. It was later learned that both the truck and registration had no connection to Wright. The registration number and the truck linked to the July 18 theft was not Myrick’s; the police report was an error apparently made by an eyewitness and since corrected in official records.

Welch supports employee privacy on social media sites By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com U.S. Rep. Peter Welch cosponsored legislation July 25 to curb the growing practice of employers requiring prospective or current employees, as a condition of employment, to provide access to password-protected social media accounts like
Facebook and Twitter. The Password Protection Act of 2012 (H.R. 5684) would prohibit compelling or coercing employees to provide access to data stored in private accounts. “Employees have a legitimate expectation of privacy when using Facebook or Twitter. This legislation will prevent fishing expeditions into employees’ private lives,” Welch said. “While an em-
ployer may have a valid concern about the business impact of an employee’s online activity, demanding passwords and unfettered access to private accounts is an over-the-top solution.” Recent news reports have highlighted a disturbing increase in the number of employers asking prospective employees to reveal usernames See PRIVACY, page 11

MIDDLEBURY — Saturday, Aug. 4, will mark the second annual Middlebury Summer Festival and Vermont Beer, Wine, and Cheese Festival in Middlebury’s Marble Works business complex. If last year ’s festival is any judge—with over 4,000 attendees—next month’s event will beat 2011’s stunning, first-time record. The festival runs between 3–7 p.m. This year ’s festival will build on the overwhelming success of the inaugural year in 2011, according to Bryan Phelps, chairman of the festival committee. “The festival will feature over 30 of Vermont’s best breweries, vineyards and distilleries as well as 15 of the state’s top artisanal cheese makers,” according to Phelps. “This turn-out represents a 50 percent increase over the previous year ’s exhibitors. In addition, there will be food vendors, and food producers providing samples and showcasing their products.” Phelps also said that “at no time in the history of Vermont has such See MIDDLEBURY FESTIVAL, page 11

HINESBURG — Local rock, jazz and folk bands can vary from “very fine” to “don’t call us, we’ll call you.” As an example of “very fine”, Middlebury’s new Latin-jazz combo, Mogani, is a band that deserves a lot more attention than it gets. Its mid-life musicians are playing exciting, come-alive tunes with a combined experience level that is impressive, at least to this reviewer. We envision Mogani going places, if given the chance by local fans to get the ball rolling. Another local band in the “very fine” category is Wolcott, this time on the other side of the age spectrum—an all-teen group that has it’s stuff together. This band, which consists of four CVU seniors, has been playing together since 2007; all the practice time really shows. Th band members are Albert Brown on bass, Drew Cooper on rhythm guitar, Garrett Linck on lead guitar, and Thomas Keller on percussion and vocals. In a competitor newspaper ’s 2011 review of Wolcott’s selftitled C.D., the band's music was described as “...Early ‘80s

post-punk [channeled] through the garage of a Hinesburg homestead.” That’s cute of them to say, but this Hinesburg band deserves more serious praise. Wolcott’s most recent bookings are proof positive that the band has legs. It has performed in the Burlington area including Nectar's, 242 Main, the Monkey House, the Old Lantern, and for several private parties. The Hinesburg Community School adopted the “buy local” mantra, too, when it showcased the band recently. Coming up, you can enjoy the Wolcott boys performing as part of Higher Ground's Northern Exposure series on Wednesday, Aug. 1. The band is second on the program that to play, between 9:20-10 p.m., in the Showcase Lounge at Higher Ground at 1214 Williston Rd. in South Burlington. (Frankly, Wolcott should have been in the number one slot, but we’ll forgive Higher Ground for its oversight this time.) The Wolcott show is suitable for all ages and tickets are $6—available either from a band member or at the door. It’s about time the area is showing its support for a group of talented, young local musicians—three cheers for Wolcott. For advance tickets, contact either Garrett Linck at linckinator@gmail.com or Thomas Keller at thomaskeller@cvuhs.org or 734-4565.

One nation under God
Summer’s fleeting light
F
our weeks have passed since July 4 and the idea is beginning to set in hard with me: summer time is running out. The days, now past their solstice prime, are quicker than the eye. Darkness, merely one month ago, came later in the evening; now dusky shadows slide quickly across the lawn, inexorably drawn to autumnal cardinal points. Now, I am astounded at how the sounds of early summer’s rebirth have transitioned into an audible fever pitch—a fever pitch of nature’s year at a mid-life climax, marking the remaining weeks of our all, too short northern-latitude summer. At the arrival of August, the season is at a crossroads. Summer has been filled with change, but I haven’t seized the season and enjoyed all the long hours of daylight, or taken a walk in the woods after sunset, or rode my bicycle along Creek Road, or caught a crayfish in the Middlebury River across from the MacIntyres, or took the plunge at Dog Team Falls. During the early 1900s, British biologist John Lubbock praised the idea of simple relaxation, that well-deserved form of rest earned only after a hard-day’s work. Lubbock must have turned a few Victorian heads when he said, “to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.” Indeed—if only I could squeeze a few more drops of summer into a glass; I’d take a full day to sip its nectar and lie on the grass and watch the clouds float across the sky. Perhaps that’s why a Vermont summer is a bittersweet thing. We savor every moment of what little summer we’re given. What glorious summer is behind us now is what I call lost time—time never to return. And what weeks lie ahead are all that remain of this summer’s fleeting youth. God willing, when my time is nigh, I’d like to make my grand exit during high summer; it would suit the Tom Sawyer lurking in my soul. And maybe there’d even be a narcissistic moment of melodrama akin to the final words of polar explorer Lawrence “Titus” Oates. Oates, who accompanied Robert Falcon Scott’s ill-fated British expedition to the South Pole 100 years ago, vanished in an antarctic whiteout. His last words, recorded for posterity in a companion’s journal, supremely captured my notion of lost time which—for all of us, at some time or another— must extend, from here and now, into eternity. The reflective, pipe-smoking Oates stepped outside of a frozen camp tent on March 16, 1912, in a sub-zero storm. But unlike the mortal remains of his fellow expedition members, his body was never found. “I am just going outside,” he told his tent mate, “and may be some time." So, let me play a few more hours in the fading light of summer. I am just going outside and may be some time. Lou Varricchio

N
o other country in the world enjoys the freedoms and the prosperity that we do in the United States. The grand experiment, launched so many years ago, was to create a country free from tyranny with each person free to pursue life, liberty and happiness under the selfevident truth that all are created equal and endowed by their creator with unalienable rights. The concept that we are “One nation under God” continues to be challenged by groups offended by the concept that so many hold dear. One such group is the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF). This group has skillfully used the freedoms we enjoy to create an educational, watchdog organization that is made up of “free-thinkers,” agnostics and atheists that aim to keep church and state separate through what they claim is “persuasion and education.” Recently it forced the leaders in the city of Steubenville, Ohio with the threat of a lawsuit aimed at changing their official logo because it included a silhouette of a cross from the Franciscan University Chapel. Despite the fact that the Franciscan School is one of the leading employers in the area and one of the most recognized entities in the city, the fact that they are religiously based apparently means that their contribution to the community should not be recognized. Organizations like FFRF are now taking advantage of cash strapped communities and governments who fear lawsuits while struggling with evershrinking budgets. Most recently, and without discussion, Essex County New York Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Douglas decided to abandon the practice of prayer before the board’s monthly meetings after reading a newspaper editorial suggesting that prayer had no place in government. The editorial was responding to recent discussions in Washington County, N.Y. over the wording of the prayer offered by their official chaplain, causing the New York Civil Liberties Union to threaten suit. In this case, without NYCL even asking, chairman Douglas led the retreat to abandon prayer, instead of investigating other modifications so as to make it acceptable. When you look at the sacrifices made by the early citizens of this country, and those throughout the ages who fought and died for these freedoms, I have to wonder how they would have reacted to the threat of a lawsuit? The King of England, with his world-powerful army and navy, didn’t cause our early leaders to back down from what they believed to be truth, right and just, but today all it takes is a small minority armed with a few lawyers and constitutional interpretations to end long-standing traditions. We need leaders who lead the charge, not the retreat. Make no mistake about it, respect for a supreme being is woven into the fabric of our country and is worth preserving in our government institutions as well as our private lives. What is the first thing we turn to when tragedy strikes as it did recently in Colorado or following 911? It’s our faith and hope that there is more to life than just this world we inhabit for a short time. There must be room in this country and its
government for all forms of religious and spiritual beliefs: Christian, Hindu, Judaism, Buddhist, Jehovah’s Witness, Muslim, Mormons, Scientologists, Pagans, Atheists and Dan Alexander many, many others. We should Thoughts from be able to agree that we each Behind the Pressline have strong feelings for our beliefs but we must respect each other’s right to honor those beliefs as each sees fit, without hindering or overtly offending the other. I understand and agree with the Establishment Clause that prohibits our government from establishing an official religion or showing preference among religions or between religion and non-religion. The Free Exercise Clause prohibits the government from burdening an individual’s ability to exercise his or her religious beliefs if the burden does not arise from neutral law of general applicability but instead infringes upon a particular set of beliefs. But the common denominator to nearly all religious belief is the belief in a Supreme Being. We use different names when we refer to this “Being” and have established unique customs, but the belief in something larger and more universal than our own immediate environment is what this country stands to protect, not diminish. There is room for non-believers, but their rights should also not infringe on the vast majority in this country who do practice their faith in an outward manner. In turn our government officials should not have to hide their beliefs, nor should communities be restrained when demonstrating pride in their faith-based community members and the symbols they use to represent that faith. In my opinion, a country with no faith basis, made up of non-believers, is just as intolerable as a country endorsing a single religious faith. This country’s diversity and melting pot has served us well through the centuries. Our courts need to quit attacking religion and slowly chipping away its importance in our society. Newspaper editors that call for no prayer should stay focused on the First Amendment and the freedom of speech and freedom of the press because once our religious freedoms are legislated away restrictions on those other cherished freedoms won’t be far behind. As for Mr. Douglas in Essex County, N.Y., why not consider a moment of reflection prior to board meetings, encouraging the members to consider the issues they are about to undertake and look for wisdom and guidance from a source of their own choosing? We frequently ask for God to bless America both in song and prayer. I hope those blessings continue to provide our leaders, our courts and all Americans with the wisdom to accept and tolerate our difference while growing our love and respect for the country we all call home.

The bear, the fawn, the mountain B iking up the mountain, back of my house. Heart rate 125 or so, where I want it to hang through the ride. From the woods on my right, down-slope and a whole step off the dirt road, I hear thunderous crashing and crushing and cracking. My concentration switches from work to observation. I fix my gaze and focus and expect to receive the image of a moose, but see nothing but forest. My focus refocuses low and finds the culprit of the thrashing. It’s a bear, running hang bent for election, 12 times harder than Barack and Mitt, down slope, showing amazingly great speed relative to what seems only fair ability to keep from tangling it’s legs and tumbling. Must be two years since my last bear sighting. It’s always exciting sighting a bear, but this ride-time sighting is extra rare. Watching the bear flee from my sight and scent invigorates me. I mimic the bear and flee. In less than a heart beat my heart rate peaks at my goal -130 beats per minute. Seeing a black bear running faster than you ride will do that.

square foot pasture stands a fawn neck deep in steam, staring at me. I stop. I always do running, biking, mowing, when I see a deer. I stare back. We are still, staring at each other. The fawn’s narrow face and translucent ears are beautiful. My heartbeat slows from the post card perfect sight. Still still, the fawn quietly says, “Hey.” Still, straddling my bike I answer, “Hey.” Through the steam and after a summer of fading the fawn’s barely visible spots look like dust picked up from brushing against the leg of a work table at an abandoned sheet rock factory. A poor description perhaps, but's what came to mind after mounting my bike’s saddle to continue my ride. The fawn watched me go. It didn’t scare. It knows I live in the house on the property where nibbling greens along a tractor path has become a favorite summer activity it shares with it’s Ma.

Chinese students tour Addison County by bike By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — Thirty Chinese middle school and high school students, plus 13 local student ambassadors from Middlebury Union Middle School and Middlebury Union High School, embarked on a 16-milelong tour of Middlebury and Weybridge on July 25. The bike trip was organized by several MUHS teachers and provided by Sojourn Bicycle Tours and Active Vacations of Charlotte. Arranged by the Middlebury schools through the Spiral International Institute at the University of Vermont, the Chinese students arrived in Middlebury July 23 and stayed with local host families. The foreign students represent four schools in the cities of Chongging and Guiyan City. During their stay in town, the students have been studying English at MUHS and enjoying physical exercise and computer time. Michele Magnano, a mathematics teacher and activities director, said that, since arriving on July 23, the visiting students has spent afternoons exploring the Vermont countryside. Students embarked on a bus trip to Lake Dunmore and Kingsland Bay State Park, an alpine chair-lift ride at the Sugarbush Mountain Resort, a fun scavenger hunt, a visit to Waterbury and downtown Burlington, and lunch at Shelburne Farms. Chinese teacher Melody Rong Quan, in her early 20s, has been teaching English for four years in her homeland. However, this summer was her first trip to the United States. “This has been a wonderful time and a great learning experience for the students,” she said. “I love Vermont and its people. Everyone is very friendly; we would love to come back someday.” The July 25 bike tour—with teacher Rong Quan reserving her own bike—started in the parking lot at MUHS. There, the Asian stu-

According to Sue Rand of Sojourn Bike Tours, she and her husband—Doc Seubert, a MUHS English teacher and athletic coach— roughed out a tour route that would lead from the high school, across Court Street (Route 7) through Buttolph Acres, over the pedestrian path of the under-renovation Pulp Mill Covered Bridge, and on to Monument Farms Dairy in Weybridge and back into town. The high point of the 16-mile tour includ-
ed a tour of the Morgan Horse Farm in Weybridge. “The kids were really fast on the bikes,” said Sojurn tour leader Luke Krish. “We covered a lot of ground in a very short time.” After a few hours on local back roads, the bikers returned safely to the MUHS parking lot via downtown Middlebury. Back at the Sojurn chase van, the students returned their tour bikes and spent happy moments, among themselves, recounting—in Chinese and broken English—the just-ended trek. Next summer, according to Magnano, it’s hoped that Middlebury students will travel
to China for the first time, although there are details to iron out. MUHS Principal Bill Lawson supports the student exchange concept based on the success of the UVM Spiral International Institute program. The MUHS trip to China will occur in addition to welcoming additional Chinese students next summer. MUHS is always looking for families to host visiting students. Those interested in hosting a Chinese student next summer should contact Chris Bonavita at the high school at 382-1123.

Water, wastewater budgets approved in Middlebury MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury Select Board approved the proposed Fiscal Year 2013 Water and Wastewater budgets as proposed. While the approved budgets do not require increases in utility rates this year, staff noted the use of $59,000 in surplus funds in the wastewater department from previous years to avoid an increase in sewer rates in FY13. Staff also noted that rate increases may be required in the next fiscal year in order to fund capital projects. Contract for Green Mountain Place Utility Upgrade Project Awarded: The Board awarded the bid to the low bidder, Markowski Excavating, Inc., with a bid price of $273,113.70, with four members in favor and three opposed. Fire Facilities Project Update: Fire Facilities Committee Chairperson Patrick Shaw reported that the work on Stations #1 and #2 is progressing nicely, on schedule and on budget. Epoxy Floor Finish in Fire Stations 1 AND 2 approved: The Board approved the addition of epoxy floor finishes to increase longevity of the concrete floors and provide a safer wearing surface. Epoxy floor finishes were initially included in the project, but removed due to budgetary concerns. With the favorable bids received on the construction projects, there are uncommitted contingency funds available to cover the $65,000 change order for the epoxy floors. Standing Seam Metal Roof approved for Station 2: With an eye toward longevity, the Board approved a change order for Station 2 to allow for a standing seam metal roof (with an estimated life of 50 years) rather than an asphalt shingle roof (with an estimated life of 20 years). The $14,000 additional cost for the standing seam roof is available in the contingency for the project. Agreement with Vermont Emergency Management for Technical Rescue Team Response Approved: The agreement formalizes the current understanding between VEM and the Town and provides compensation for the Town's response to calls by the Technical Rescue Team.
Correspondence Regarding Boundaries of Fire District 1: The Board received a letter from two property owners of East Middlebury questioning the inclusion of their properties in the boundaries of Fire District 1. Members of the Fire District's Prudential Committee provided supporting documentation on the legal boundaries of the District and the Selectboard, which sets the Fire District boundaries under state statute, decided to take no action at this time unless evidence refuting the boundaries of the District or a petition requesting a change in boundaries is received. Report from Middlebury Business Development Fund Advisory Board Meeting of July 16: The Advisory Board reviewed the draft work plan for the Business Development Director; discussed the data collection and analysis need to support the statement of need for fundraising; and reviewed the revised timeline for recruitment of the Director and fundraising so that the anticipated completion of fundraising coincides with the beginning of the interview process for the Director. The Selectboard noted that additional steps recognizing the role of the Selectboard in hiring for this important position need to be incorporated in to the timeline for recruiting the Director Report from Recreation Meeting of July 18: Attendees of the recreation meeting discussed summer programs and pool operations and possible improvements for future years. The Recreation & Parks Director job description was also reviewed and input on the description is welcomed and encouraged. The job description will be revised and the position advertised in the late summer/early fall, with the goal of filling the position in the mid winter of 2012/2013. The Recreation Advisory Board is in the process of being recreated as the Recreation Committee: The new committee will include: two Selectboard members; one representative of the Ilsley Public Library (which has recreation-related programs); one representative of the Addison County Teens; one resident of East Middlebury; and two residents at large.

on the Recreation Committee, residents should contact the Town Manager's Office, 388-8100, ext. 201. The Selectboard will consider letters of interest in serving on the Committee at its next meeting on Aug. 14. The Recreation Committee will meet on Thursday, Aug. 16, at 5:30 p.m. Town Offices/Community Center Steering Committee Meeting of July 24: The Committee heard about support available from Efficiency Vermont as the Town considers the construction of a new Community Center and renovation and rehabilitation of the gym. Efficiency Vermont stressed the importance of including planning for energy efficiency and consumption early in the conceptual phase of the project. The Committee also discussed reaching out to the community to encourage public participation in the project planning process. There are currently two new task forces for the project that are being formed, the Finance and Fundraising Task Force and the Municipal Gym Task Force. Residents should contact the Town Manager's Office, 388-8100, ext. 200, to find out more about or to express interest in serving on these task forces. The Board accepted the Downtown Improvement District Commission's recommendation to award the bid for a parking study in the Downtown to RSG for $10,000. The study will take place in August, with a final report anticipated in mid-October. Homestead Policy Task Force: The Homestead Policy Task Force recommended that the Town assess a flat fee for latefiled homesteads, rather than the current 8% penalty on taxes due for the late-filed forms. Performance Bond Policy Task Force: The Task Force has met twice and drafted a proposed policy, which they will continue to refine to make a recommendation to the Board. The Task Force is considering use of the State's pre-qualified contractor list and the dollar amount threshold for requiring performance bonds, particularly whether the State's threshold of $100,000 is a valid benchmark as it was set some time ago, and perhaps the dollar amount should have increased with inflation. Note: This Middlebury Select Board meeting report was prepared by Kathleen Ramsay, assistant town manager, in the public interest.

Addison filmmaker agrees to state fraud allegation in Ponzi-like scheme ADDISON — On July 25, Vermont officials announced that Vermont filmmaker Malcolm “Mac” Parker, a resident of Addison, has agreed that he defrauded investors in an independent movie project. Parker was in civil court when he agreed to the state’s allegation of fraud, according to the state. A total of $28 million from Parker ’s investors was allegedly involved. In the alleged Ponzi-like scheme, the money collected was used to pay off previous investors and Parker ’s partner, Louis Soteriou. The civil allegations were made by the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation. Earlier this year, Parker pled guilty to federal criminal charges of “conspiring to commit wire fraud and filing a false tax document”. Currently, Parker is awaiting sentencing. Soteriou, Parker ’s partner, is also facing federal criminal charges for his involvement in the alleged investment scheme.

Upcoming Shrine football game crowns king, queen By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com The real meaning of Shrine Football has always been found in the smile of a child, a patient in one of the Shrine Hospitals. When the 59th Annual Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl is played today on Dartmouth College’s Memorial Field the children in the Shrine hospital will be represented by a King and Queen, just as they have been every year since 1954. Their majesties this year are Tatyana Malikowski of Windsor and Justin Lawson of Barre. Tatyana is the daughter of Carl & Carolyn Malikowski and Justin is the son of Teddie Lyn Lawson. Tatyana was born in 1998 near Kandalaksha, Russia. She was adopted in March 2003 and moved to Windsor. She will be a 7th grader at Windsor Jr. High School this coming fall. While living in Russia, Tatyana developed a severe form of rickets and after her arrival in the United States she was accepted as a patient at the Shriner's Hospital in Springfield, Mass. There expert care was provided by Shriner's pediatric endocrinologist and orthopedic surgeons until Tatyana's rickets were corrected. Today she plays soccer and softball and her hobbies include astronomy and listening to music. Justin was born in 1996 with clubfeet and from the day he was born his feet and legs were in a cast. His grandfather, though, had a friend who was a Shriner and with his help Justin was admitted to the Shrine Hospital

Shrine football king Justin Lawson of Barre in Springfield. Right away he began to make weekly trips to Springfield and around the year of age of one he underwent surgery; and he continued visits to the Shrine Hospital for several years with more surgery at the age of five. His mother and grand parents have said, “Having all the visits, surgery and the travel costs covered by Shriner ’s was a blessing to our family and we will always be grateful.” Justin now has normal feet and enjoys wrestling, snowboarding, soccer and having an active childhood.
long community celebration. Teams compete for fundraising, speed and spirit in outrageous attire, songs, cheers and chants. Vermont’s favorite musical acts perform throughout the day including Burlington Taiko, Jeh Kulu, MaidenVermont, and Sambatucada. At midday there is a Breast Cancer Survivor race followed by a traditional flower ceremony when the breast cancer survivor teams honor those who have died. It all builds up to the Final Five championship races beginning at 3:30 pm to see who will go home with the
coveted Citizens Bank Champ Cup. Admission is free for spectators. Watch the races, eat good food, and enjoy music, song, dance, children's activities, silent auction, a Hornbeck Boat raffle, and more!

Changes in winter fuel assistance program MONTPELIER — Heating fuel dealers that participate in the Vermont Fuel Assistance Program can expect several changes this coming winter. The existing rule that allows dealers to use 17 percent of the current fuel benefit to pay for a customer ’s back balance will likely be eliminated. There is also a proposal to limit crisis fuel to one delivery if a customer receives seasonal fuel assistance and two deliveries if they do not. What is not going away is the fuel dealer discount, which last year was set at 10-cents per gallon or the dealers cash discount, whichever was greater. Oil and propane dealers will not be alone. The largest fuel assistance supplier in the state will also have to lower their prices for fuel assistance customers. Section 13 of Act 136 requires the Public Service Board to ensure that Vermont Gas Systems provides a discount to their fuel assistance customers, just as heating oil and propane marketers have done since 2008. However, it is unclear if that discount will be set by the Public Service Board in time for the 2012-2013 heating season. Several other changes that were expected have been delayed another year. The fuel assistance office had considered
a margin over rack leveraging program to dictate the price charged to fuel assistance customers, however, this is no longer under consideration for this winter. Also delayed are the much discussed fuel assistance “web portal” and payment after delivery system. The web portal would eliminate refund reports and allow the state to pay dealers after they deliver, not before. While there won’t be a web portal this winter, the fuel assistance office is going all digital. In November, participating fuel dealers will receive a password protected email with a spreadsheet showing their fuel assistance customers and benefit amount, along with lump sum payment from the fuel assistance office. At the end of the season, dealers will email back a spreadsheet showing how the funds were accounted for. Early projections for the 2012-2013 heating season puts the average fuel assistance benefit at $543 per home. This is compared to the $900 per home average last winter. Why the decrease? Congress is expected to hold the line on funding at $3.4 billion, of which approximately $19.5 million goes to Vermont.

WASHINGTON, D.C.— Ten 4-H teens from three Vermont counties had a chance to get acquainted with "Uncle Sam" recently through participation in Citizenship Washington Focus (CWF) in Washington, D.C., one of the largest national citizenship education programs for youth. The Vermont 4-H'ers, along with delegates from several other states, attended the June 30-July 6 session, one of seven weeklong sessions scheduled this summer at the National 4-H Center, Chevy Chase, Md. Their visit was coordinated by University of Vermont Extension and funded in part by the State 4-H Foundation, local county 4-H foundations and donations. CWF helps young people, ages 15 to 19, better understand how government functions at all levels and how to effectively use local government processes to address issues when they return home. The state delegation learned about the bill writing process that takes place in the House of Representatives and spent a day on Capitol Hill to participate in a Congressional session and meet with agricultural staffer Jake Oster from U.S. Representative Peter Welch's office to discuss agricultural concerns relevant to Vermont. In addition, the teens participated in programming and committees that explored current issues including youth labor in agriculture, food labeling, renewable resources and federal funding for arts programs in schools. They also learned about the nation's history and what they can do to become better citizens and community lead-

Arrest from page 1 During the initial investigation, it was learned that an altercation occurred between several members of a group of people attending a bonfire and a male that drove up to the group. Police said that the suspect, Joseph Bolduc, 25, of Burlington, allegedly left the scene before law enforcement arrived. Troopers from the New Haven Barracks immediately initiated a search for Bolduc. Detectives from the Vermont State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation responded to both the residence and the hospital. They were assisted by members of the Vermont State Police Crime Scene Search Team. With the assistance of Vergennes Police Department, Bolduc was taken into custody in Ferrisburg after assaulting a state trooper. Bolduc was arrested July 28 on multiple charges including DLS-criminal, DUI 3 refusal, leaving the scene of an accident, negligent operation, resisting arrest, and attempting to disarm a law enforcement officer. Other charges will be forthcoming. Bolduc will be lodged on a no bail hold at Marble Valley Regional Correctional Facility. Bell was transported to the Vermont Office of the Chief Medical Examiner where an autopsy will be performed. At this time, the official cause and manner of death are pending the completion of the autopsy. No other information was available at press time.
Lost and found: ‘70s glass ‘time capsule’ found BELLOWS FALLS—A message-in-a-bottle that was set adrift in the White River in 1977 was found by teen July 19. The time capsule’s contents, a handwritten not and exposed to three decades of water, was still partially legible. Justin Shepard, 14, of Bellows Falls found an open bottle with a handwritten message signed by its creator, Sean Keown. The bottle was set adrift in the river in Rochester, Now 35 years later, its finder has tracked down the owner with some assistance. Shepard said the bottle did not have a cap or cork, but he was able to discern the writer ’s name as Sean Keown. According to Keown, who tossed the bottle with its message into the White River more than 70 miles from where it was found, said he and a friend launched several bottles from Rochester during the summer of 1977. Keown’s message included a promise of a small reward to whomever discovered the bottle at some time in the future. Being a student enrolled in the local elementary school in 1977, the bottler was thinking candy, maybe a soft drink. Now Keown is rethinking the reward and may offer cash to Shepard.
