lcohol suspected A in Starksboro cycle accident
STARKSBORO — On April 28, at approximately 2 p.m., Vermont State Police troopers were dispatched to a report of a motorcycle accident off of Vermont Route 116 in Starksboro. VSP said the accident investigation suggests that operator, Tom Cardinal, 58, of Starksboro lost control of his friend’s Harley Davidson, drove off the road and through a barbed-wire fence. Cardinal was transported to Fletcher Allen Health Care with reports of a possible neck or back injury and severe lacerations to his face and head. Cardinal was wearing a fastened helmet at the time of the collision. DUI operation is suspected at this time but lab results are pending. Cardinal will be cited into Addison District Court for operating an unregistered, uninsured motorcycle with a criminally suspended license.

Firefi ghters extinguish brushfi re in Middlebury By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — A fast-moving brushfi re April 22 along Halladay Road in Middlebury required two fi re engines and a special brush truck, along with a team of fi refi ghters, from the Middlebury Fire Department. After approximately 15 minutes of work, the suspiciously set blaze was extinguished. The fi eld fi re occurred around 2:10 p.m. and was spotted by Holly Hathaway, a resident of Halladay Road. “The blaze looked suspicious to me,” Hathaway said, “with at least eight or nine little fi res set along the hillside on the east side of the road.” The fi res broke out just south of the town sewer-line cistern and quickly spread into Hathaway’s pony pasture. Hathaway said she no longer pastures horses in the fi eld. “My plan is to brush hog the fi eld, remove a wooden shed and old barbed wire fencing, and plant a row of sunfl owers,” Hathaway said. “So, I was pretty nervous about this blaze since every thing is so dry. Looks like this fi re got a jump on some of my work.” Hathaway said she last burned brush nearby on April 21, the last day residents were permitted to legally burn twigs and CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Smith, Amirault and Ismail will perform as the Standard Poodle Dance Collective. Amirault, an accomplished dancer in her own right, has been seen elsewhere without Smith. Amirault’s Kidz dance group has been a seed bed for young dancers in Vermont. And Kidz has been a staple of Burlington’s First Night event for several years now. Fellow dancer Ismail began her career across borders as well as in New York City, where she was affiliated with stars of the American Ballet Theatre. As a teen, Ismail began her professional career with London’s celebrated Ballet Rambert. Within a few years, she was a member of Les Grands Ballets Canadians in Montreal.

MIDDLEBURY — Before I saw talented, expressive Vermont dancer Patty Smith perform in 2010, the art of dance never crossed my radar screen much. So, when I heard Smith was going to perform at Middlebury’s Town Hall Theater, I was happy to receive a sneak peek at the event which is scheduled for May 8. Smith, respected for her award-winning art as well as for her choreographic instruction for children, received her early and classic training with Jan Veen of the Boston Conservatory of Music’s Dance Department. She was also a pupil of Mary Wigman, the celebrated inheritor of the German
modern dance scene. Smith is well known in New York and San Francisco circles as well. Along with Patty Smith will be her rising student dancers Karen Amirault and Shelly Ismail. Once again, Town Hall Theater will present Addison County residents with the best offerings in the northern New England performing arts scene. The Town Hall Theater’s own publicity about Smith describe her as “the elder stateswoman of the Vermont dance scene”. Of course May 8 won’t be Smith’s first appearance on the Middlebury stage. She has performed at Town Hall Theater as a solo and seen with her various students around Addison County and Rutland County. On Wednesday, May 8,

From the Editor
Life, money, Kung Fu journalism
A
s a journalist, it’s especially nice to hear from readers who have something nice to say about something I wrote in the newspaper. It’s rare, but when it happens it makes “one of the worst 10 jobs in America” seem worthwhile. (I’ll explain about that shortly.) In the past week, I received two positive comments about an editorial I wrote in this paper about the infamous Year Without a Summer, 1816. That’s not bad, considering the known fact of the tip of the iceberg; that is, if two people have nice things to say, there are many, many more who aren’t as forthcoming. But overall, as a battle-hardened community newspaperman—and I can speak only of myself and my work—it’s one job where complaints and self-appointed news experts are common place. Editors and journalists, who regularly stick their necks out in public, need big shoulders. They need an almost mystical sense of purpose—a Kwai Chang Caine “Kung Fu” inner toughness, a pinch of mindfulness and resourcefulness, and a big dollop of professional confidence. Sure mistakes happen—far too often, perhaps; but then it’s all par for the course of being in an all too human profession where the public demand for journalistic purity, even divinity, looms far larger than any gesture of forgiveness for errors. Recently, Business Insider.com reported that the job of newspaper reporter is among the 10 worst jobs in America. Also included in the worst list was broadcaster (T.V. and radio), waitress/waiter, butcher, meter reader, dairy farmer, lumberjack, soldier, dishwasher. According to Business Insider, “Reporters work long hours with high levels of stress to meet deadline. Their career prospects are shrinking as media companies consolidate. And for working longer hours than a business executive, you’ll get paid $35,275.” And what of the 10 best jobs in America, according to Business Insider? Here goes: mathematician, computer system analyst, online advertising manager, occupational therapist, audiologist, financial planner, dental hygienist, corporate H.R. manager, actuary, and software engineer. I certainly won’t dispute Business Insider’s findings about being a news reporter. It, like most jobs, involves a lot of work, skill, and time. But I am not overly impressed by the 10 best jobs; none of them appeal to me, personally, in the least. Over the years, I have never gone out of my way to inspire a young person to pursue the newspaper profession, unless, of course, they demonstrate the old-fashioned American work ethic, a firein-the-belly for news gathering, writing, snooping, have the physical strength, have the intellectual stamina, and are smart at managing daily life (and future retirement planning) on the profession’s few financial rewards. However, I must add that I work for an award-winning newspaper organization and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Another positive for me: Newspaper reporters, despite the obvious restrictions, can still find a lot of creative expression and there’s a good deal of job freedom if you have self discipline to get the job done—I would think there’s a lot more in this job than in most of the 10 best jobs mentioned above. Oh, and regarding Business Insider’s preoccupation with on-the-job stress—tell me, what job doesn’t have stress? From Wal-Mart to the White House, stress is part of work life in these United States. Honestly, for all the leather-upholstered luxury cars or hurricane-prone beach homes in Florida, you couldn’t pack my career flight bag with enough golden parachutes to ever want to be a CEO, CFO or IT manager. I sleep pretty well at night, thank you very much. Sure, sometimes I bring the job home, but not too often. That’s something I promised myself and my wife. So, in many ways the freedom and sense of discovery, plus meeting all kinds of people in the community, that a newspaper job provides is a kind of career perk. Plus, counting complimentary concerts I’ve attended, famous people I’ve encountered, a flight in an historic B-17 bomber, an upclose look at the rollout of a new NASA rocket, and other adventures near-and-far too numerous to mention, I can’t complain too much. In the end, happiness will never be found on the job. It also can’t be found in the endless accumulation of things or in the pursuit of existential sensations. There are greater things—good health, family, friends, a loving pet, soul-satisfying hobbies, community service, and spiritual/religious pursuits—which define who we are inside. It’s what true success means to me. Lou Varricchio

Truck crashes on Route 4 By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com MENDON — On April 26, at approximately 11:35 a.m., Vermont State Police responded to a vehicle crash near 1591 U.S. Route 4 in Mendon. A VSP report stated that Bruce Lasante, 75, of Mendon was operating a pickup truck eastbound on Route 4, when it veered off the eastbound road edge and into a highway runoff ditch before crashing into a Green Mountain Power utility pole. Drugs and alcohol were not a factor in the crash, according to the report. The Rutland City Fire Department and Rutland Regional Ambulance Service assisted at the crash scene. Green Mountain Power replaced the broken utility pole. Lasante’s truck was towed away.

leaves until the autumn season. When she saw the fires, Hathaway ran to a neighbor’s house located just south of the blaze. She said the neighbor, an unnamed local firefighter, was asleep at the time and knew nothing about the incident. He ran to the adjoining field within a few minutes and helped fellow firefighters when they arrived on the scene. One passerby in a pickup truck, suspecting the fire was an accident and getting out-of-control, had stopped and began extinguishing the blaze by beating on flames with a jacket. Another Halladay Road resident arrived, too, with a shovel and bucket. Both hasty attempts failed to contain the blaze. The site of the grass fire, just west of U.S. Route 7, was along a small dry glen with an unnamed, intermittent brook; the place is in the right-of-way of the proposed Vermont Railway-Omya quarry rail spur project which is now on hold. It is not known if the fire was intentionally set or if a cigarette was tossed out by a passing motorist. Steven Holmes, a northeastern fire warden and veteran firefighter, said the recent warm weather and dry conditions in both New England and the Mid-Atlantic regions have triggered numerous brush fires. “Humans are most often the cause of these brush fires,” Holmes said in a national news report April 21.

newmarketpress@denpubs.com BRIDPORT — Here’s a new agricultural term you won’t find in the dictionary just yet: “solar orchard”. So, what the heck is a “solar orchard” you ask? Of course orchards naturally are solar collectors; apple tree leaves convert sunlight, via photosynthesis, into bio-organic chemicals that produce new cells (plant growth) as well as the delicious fruit, a favorite on vermont kitchen tables, especially in the autumn season. Now Vermont Hard Cider Company, maker of Woodchuck Hard Cider, is adding to mother nature’s own energy harvest. The Middlebury-based cider maker is harvesting old man Sol through an thriving apple orchard in Bridport.

Williams is CEO of the nation’s number one hardcider maker. “Sustainability efforts like this are at the core of our mission,” Williams said. “To be able to tap into local renewable energy is good for our business, the local economy, and the planet.” Williams said his company’s 1.5-acre “solar orchard” site includes 26, Vermont-made pole-mounted AllSun Trackers. The big photovoltaic arrays follow the sun all day and convert sunlight into electricity, thanks to high-tech heliostats. “Woodchuck also purchases 25 percent of its power through Green Mountain Power’s Cow Power program, which converts cow manure to electricity,’ Williams added. “Combined with the new solar project, around 40 percent of Woodchuck’s power use is now renewable.”

VERGENNES — The Vergennes Lions Club has made several donations to area organizations in recent weeks. The club raises approximately $30,000 in funds throughout the year via raffles, an auction, food sales, etc. to help fund local organizations that provide services to area families. The Addison County young readers group received a donation of $250, with Margo Grace present to explain the program and the efforts made to get books into the hands of all Addison County children under the age of 5. The program is a part of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library with an annual cost of about $30 per child. Their goal is 85 percent, but they were only at 38 percent in 2012. More help is needed to be sure the goal is met. The club recently presented a check to the Addison County Special Olympics program in the amount of $750 to assist students from the Vergennes-Bristol area. Jim Wacker, program director, was present to receive the check.
Steve Pouliot, from the Vermont Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired, recently spoke to the club about their program and the numbers of citizens in the area served by their association. President Kitty Oxholm presented a check for $500 to assist their efforts. President Kitty Oxholm presented a check for $1,000 to Bixby Library Director Jane Spencer. Spencer thanked the club for their continued support. She mentioned that a number of Vergennes Lions serve of the library board of directors, and that other Lions help the library in other ways. At an April 17 club meeting, Robert Thorn, from Addison County Counseling Service, spoke about the numerous programs that his agency is involved with and how all of the county schools have school based clinicians working with students. Following Thorn’s talk, Oxholm presented him with a check for $300. The club started selling tickets for an annual car raffle, and are making plans for Memorial Day to earn more funds for the communities served. Tickets are available from any Vergennes Lions member.

Relief for property owners? By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com A BUCK A LIKE — Over the last three years, Woodchuck Hard Cider of Middlebury has planted more than 34,000 trees in areas devastated by natural disaster across the country. Woodchuck will again plant one tree through the American Forests Global ReLeaf program for every new Facebook ‘like’ or e-newsletter sign up. In addition, Woodchuck officials said they will give $1 per ‘Like’ and e-newsletter sign up to the Vermont Tree Fruit Growers Association. File photo
MONTPELIER — The unending rising cost of education in Vermont, versus declining enrollments, was addressed by the State House this week. Legislators approved a bill April 24, 110-24, that would—at least preliminarily—help reduce the never ending upward spiral of education spending. A final vote is expected soon. The idea is to provide some tax property relief for homeowners living in the state. Several weeks ago, legislators advanced and approved a state property tax rate increase of 5 cents. The 5-cent increase, according to House reports, was to fund the total $70 million increase in state school budgets.
Welch in Afghanistan this week
MIDDLEBURY — U.S. Rep. Peter Welch (D) departed April 28 on a congressional oversight trip to Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Turkey. Welch is participating in the trip as a member of the House Subcommittee on National Security, Homeland Defense, and Foreign Operations. This is his sixth trip to the region since he took office in 2007. Welch will join a bipartisan group of lawmakers in meetings with foreign leaders, American diplomats and U.S. soldiers. He will focus on the progress on ending the war in Afghanistan, the crisis in Syria and its impact on the region, including the related refugee crisis, as well as the use of U.S. drones in the region. Details of the trip are being withheld.

Modified Championship up for grabs at Devil’s Bowl By Justin St. Louis
WEST HAVEN — The race for the Bond Auto Parts Modified stock car championship at Devil’s Bowl Speedway will be tighter than ever as the season opens on Sunday, May 5, at the 101.5 “The Fox” Spring Green event. The field of ground-pounding, open-wheel NASCAR Whelen All-American Series machines has expanded in 2013 and includes nearly a dozen drivers with a shot at the crown. Though veteran Ron Proctor has won the championship in each of the last two seasons, the Charlton, NY driver knows that his No. 27 Timco Transportation/Charlton Oil machine is in the crosshairs in 2013. Proctor’s toughest challenger in 2012, Brandon’s Vince Quenneville will debut new sponsorship from Green Mountain Feeds and Black Diamond Builders at the Spring Green, giving him extra motivation to be up front, but Quenneville, too, will have his work cut out for him. A talented group of young racers is primed and ready for 2013, each driver capable of col-
lecting his first championship. Alex Bell of Cambridge, NY, Hunter Bates of Middlebury, and Olmstedville, N.Y.’s Jessey Mueller, combined for seven main event victories a year ago. Rookie of the Year, Vermonter Joey Roberts, will try to one-up an outstanding season that saw him collect 12 top-five finishes and a main event win. Thirty-five year racing veteran Leon Gonyo of Chazy returns after a winning campaign, and long-time Middlebury, VT favorite Todd Stone will return to Devil’s Bowl Speedway. Stone, who won the 2008 Devil’s Bowl Speedway championship in the track’s dirt-surface era, won the 100-lap Modified portion of the Vermont 200 Weekend at Devil’s Bowl last September. The Bond Auto Parts Modifieds are part of a weekend celebration of stock car racing in Rutland County, as Merchants Row in Rutland City hosts the second annual “Devil’s Bowl Downtown Fan Festival” on Saturday, May 4 from 9 a.m. to noon.

With snow gone, it’s time for some spring lawn care Dr. Leonard Perry, Extension Professor University of Vermont
Your lawn has just survived another long winter. In order to restore it to its former green glory, it will need to be raked, renovated, repaired, fertilized, and then mowed properly. First, if starting a new lawn, make sure there is good drainage. You cannot grow grass in standing water. Drainage may consist of ditches or, if underground, drainage pipe or tiles. Then rough grade the area. Add six inches of topsoil, if needed, for new lawns and depressions in established ones. A normal, well-drained soil may be adequate if fertilized appropriately. If not a fertile or welldrained soil, add organic matter. Figure on three bales of peat moss per 1,000 square feet, or the equivalent of other product such as compost. Then mix it thoroughly into the top six inches of soil. If poorly drained, you may need to add sand or even bury perforated plastic drain pipes. You may need to add limestone if the soil acidity or pH is below 6.0. To find out, you can do a soil test either with inexpensive kits from garden stores, or a more in-depth test from your state university. Kits for the latter are available at many garden outlets, and Extension offices. These university results are much more accurate than the home kits, and give you results on various fertility needs as well as recommendations. Soil testing can save you money by not applying fertilizer that’s not needed, which in turn can help prevent any runoff pollution. Prepare a smooth seedbed free of stones, hollows, and ridges for new lawns. Raking off the old leaves, sticks, and other winter debris gives your existing lawn a chance to breathe, as well as makes it easier to repair and reseed worn or dead spots (or those areas scraped by winter snow plowing). Broadcast a complete fertilizer, or one of the commercially mixed fertilizers specific to lawns. Use enough to supply two
pounds of actual nitrogen per 1,000 square feet. This translates, for example, to 10 pounds of 20-0-12 (nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium) or 20 pounds of 10-0-10. Or use 15 to 20 pounds of the organic 6-0-6. Since phosphorus (the middle number) is often present in sufficient amounts, and restricted for lawn application in some areas due to water pollution concerns, many lawn fertilizers no longer contain it. Uniform fertilizer application at the proper rate is essential for good end results. If you are using a spreader, follow the setting on the fertilizer bag or ask your lawn and garden dealer for the proper setting. If you are reseeding or sodding the lawn, the earlier you do it in the spring the better. Remember to prepare the seedbed well, and water the lawn thoroughly. A less frequent, heavy soaking of the lawn is better than frequent, light watering, but don’t let the germinating seeds dry out initially. When reseeding, choose the right mix for your growing conditions. Zoysia, for example, is not a good choice for northern New England as it will turn brown in cool weather. A common good mix may have Kentucky bluegrass, a fine fescue such as red fescue, and a perennial ryegrass. The latter grows quickly, so is good to overseed worn areas or to use in areas with lots of wear, as are the newer tall fescues. Kentucky bluegrass prefers sunny lawns in good soil, while fine fescues tolerate some shade. Broadcast seeds with a mechanical spreader using three or four pounds per 1,000 square feet. Any more than that is wasteful. Rake the seedbed lightly, using just the tips of the rake teeth. Go over the area with a lawn roller if convenient. Sprinkle the soil gently, and keep it moist until the seeds germinate. Mow once the grass starts to grow. Grass kept at a height of two to three inches can withstand heat stress better than closely cropped grass. This mowing height encourages deep rooting, so you don’t have to water or fertilize as often. Be aware that if you are using a combination fertilizer and herbicide, this may be taken up by any tree and shrub roots under

the lawn, and injure them, too. If you use residual weed killers that linger in the soil to prevent future weed growth, these may kill many soil microorganisms. This sometimes results in poorer soil, and thus, poorer lawn growth and vigor. If applying weed killers, be sure to properly identify your weed problem before you select an herbicide. Then select the least toxic product for the job, looking at application rates and potential toxicity to plants, animals, and humans. Read and follow all label directions carefully. Always use these products judiciously to avoid contamination of water supplies and lakes, streams, and other surface waters. Lawn pests, such as chinch bugs and Japanese beetle grubs, can be a problem in northern New England. The often advertised milky spore product is not very effective on soil grubs in cool climates. Instead, you should check into beneficial nematode products for these pests, or seeds enhanced with “endophytes” – beneficial fungi that help provide some pest resistance. A healthy lawn is the best cure for weeds and pests. If problems occur, such as insects and diseases, check with your local garden center for answers. Also check with your local Extension Master Gardeners, as some states have hotlines for questions (1800-639-2230 in Vermont, or master.gardener@uvm.edu). For special lawn treatments such as vertical cutting, dethatching, or coring to reduce soil compaction, you might consult a lawn care professional.

Rutland-area students receive scholarships By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND — Students from several high schools in Rutland County were on hand to receive scholarships awards presented by the Italian-American Club of Rutland at a special dinner and awards ceremony April 24. The event was held at the club which is located at 73 Grove St. The club’s scholarship fund is named in honor of the late John A. Renzoni of Rutland. Born in 1929, Renzoni passed away in 2009. He was an active member of the Rutland community who was especially proud of his Italian-American heritage. He “brought sunshine and laughter wherever he went,” according to daughter Teri Austin of Killington. The Renzoni awards recognize local high school students who have made contributions in the following areas: academics, community service, school involvement, as well as those with financial needs. “It’s always a pleasure to assist students with the next step in life,” John D’Esposito said. D’Esposito is chairman of the Renzoni Scholarship Fund and an educator at the Stafford Technical Center. The following awards were presented to students as part of the Renzoni scholarships: •$1,000: Noah Sgorbatti of Otter Valley Union High School. Sgorbatti wants to study computer science and is considering applying to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or Rochester Institute of Technology. •$1,000: Emme O’Rourke of Rutland High School. She will study speech at Ithaca College. •$1,000: Abigail Harvey of Mt. St. Joseph Academy will attend St. Michael’s College where she will study pre-medicine biology. •$500: Gabrielle Guastamacho of Proctor High School and the Stafford Technical center will attend Southern vermont College. The annual scholarships are presented to students considered from RHS, MSJ, and other high schools in Rutland County.

April flowers bloom in Rutland Rutland Blooms beautification By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND — April flowers are in abundance everywhere in Rutland. A unique citywide fundraising project, called Rutland Blooms, is being spearheaded by Green Mountain Power. The project is making a colorful splash in downtown Rutland City and is evocative of U.S. First Lady “Lady Bird” Johnson’s similar nationwide efforts during the 1960s. “Rutland Blooms seems to have tapped into a wellspring of community pride and spirit,” said Steve Costello, GMP’s vice president for generation and energy innovation. Costello said that the city beautification effort saw pledges “nearing $10,000, and a dozen more businesses and organizations have joined the 40 that had signed on when the campaign was announced April 8.” According to Costello, those who make cash donations will see their gifts used for seeds, plants and bulbs that will be planted around the metro area—from city entranceways, various public spaces, and at the sites of several non-profit organizations. Donations may be sent to: Rutland Blooms, care of Downtown Rutland Partnership, 48 Merchants Row, Rutland, 05701. Businesses, clubs and other groups interested in getting involved can call Chuck Piotrowski at 802-770-4088. AWARD DAY — The Rutland South Rotary Club awarded $13,500 in scholarships to female students from Rutland County. Students were presented with either $1,500 or $1,000 scholarships. Pictured are, front, Holly Bryne (Mill River), Carissa Elrick (Proctor), Olivia Cipriani (Proctor), and back, Jensen Burke (Mill River), Abigail Harvey (MSJ), Danielle Walters (RHS), Emily Andrulat (RHS), Gabrielle Guastamachio (Stafford Technical Center), Jenna Olson (RHS), Leigh Anna LaPlante (RHS), and Courtney Patterson (Stafford Technical Center). The winners were chosen based on a number of criteria including community service involvement, grades, and their interview.
