Vermont’s rodeo season under way

By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com CAsTLeTOn Ñ Pond Hill ranch in Castleton is about as close to open range as it gets up here in Vermontana. While the green Mountain state may be about as far east of the Mississippi as you can go in many ways, the fact is that horses and cattleÑ even cowboys and sheepmenÑ have always been a part of VermontÕ s northernfrontier heritage.

Dating back to the early 1900s, Pond Hill ranch was founded by the OÕ rourke family and began as a draft horse and cattle operation. nearly a century later, it remains an OÕ rourke operation and has grown to become a genuine 2,000-acre ranch complete with free-roaming broncos, unusual cattle stock, and weekly rodeo shows.

Harry OÕ rourke, Jr., and his wife Josephine expanded the original family ranch during the 1930s; they added horses and more acreage to the spread. Today, five OÕ rourke siblingsÑ Debbie, Dick, Judy, CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

Adam Myers: the Middlebury firefighter who died in 2011 will be remembered July 26 .

MIDDLeBUrY Ñ For those Addison County residents who knew him or worked along side him, Middlebury firefighter Adam Myers was a hard worker, caring friend, and devoted family man.

MyersÕ untimely death in 2011 is still sending reverberations through the community. The dedicated firefighter—who believed deeply in community serviceÑ died in a car accident July 20, 2011. He left behind a wife and two sons, and many friends he touched in the area. since 2012, friends and businesses in the Middlebury area have been helping keep MyersÕ memory and spirit of service alive through a special fundraising event in July. Two Brothers Tavern in downtown Middlebury is also involved and will host a music event July 26.

First dubbed the Adam Myers Memorial Fundraiser in 2012, several local businesses have gone on to team up to raise money for the Middlebury Fire Department.

The annual activity, which not only remembers the volunteer and community

member, honors all the men and women who serve in fighting fires and saving lives around Middlebury. Ò Adam was in integral part of our technical rescue team,Ó according to ryan emilo, a member of the Middlebury Fire Department. Ò He was a huge champion of everything we do here at the department. His hard work, dedication and enthusiasm can never be replaced and it will never be forgotten,Ó For their first time supporting the memorial effort, a genuine recognition of loss, as well as spirit of community, motivtes the involvement of sponsors.

Holmes Jacobs, co-owner of Two Brothers Tavern in Middlebury, considered Myers a good friend. Jacobs was also his employer at the tavern. Ò Adam was a wonderful individual,Ó Jacobs said. Ò He was a devoted and loving husband, father, and friend. His civic service to the community will be missed on so many levels. We are proud to honor his memory, and dedication to the community, by raising money for something he cared so deeply about.Ó

IBM and Montpelier Pride, pain and presidents

L

ast weekÕ s bad news about the potential sale of IBMÕ s high-tech manufacturing facility in essex, Chittenden County, probably wasnÕ t much of a surprise to observers of MontpelierÕ s current no-business-as-usual policy.

Despite huge investments made in Vermont by IBM over the years—consider the firm’s hundreds of area high paying, skilled technical and office jobs, plus its providing business to many local servicesÑ the writing-on-the-wall was clearly visible for several years.

We suppose everyone can share the blame, if you want to call it that.

Vermont gov. shumlin wasnÕ t exactly showing signs of severe distress over the news last week.

Pulling out the stops to keep a big Ò ungreenÓ corporation here is a little out of character for the governor anyhow.

But then we donÕ t blame it all on the governor or Montpelier (weÕ ll get to that later) entirely.

ThereÕ s blame and then thereÕ s the enexorable march of time and change.

But let’s look at IBM, first.

As AmericaÑ now mostly a consumer, not a maker of thingsÑ rapidly declines, having outpriced itself from its once dominant position as a world leader in electronic manufacturing, we have seen others with drive, vision and commitment to R&D fill the market void. remember the IBM P.C., the pioneering personal computer?

Lenovo, a Chinese company bought the once proud and mighty Big Blue P.C. division in 2005.

At the time, that got us wondering about the real long-term viability and health of IBM on the international stage. DonÕ t forget, it was as recently as the early 2000s that IBM visibily touched our everyday business livesÑ but it seems, at least to the casual observer, no longer. so, we agree in part with critics of such big business: Large U.s. businesses all too often want it both ways: profits with no risk of loss. We’re not saying that only about IBM; the company has been a good neighbor here, but we’ll admit their first commitment has never been to Vermont workers.

Like any for-profit entity in the bloody Cretaceous seas of the business world, the bottom line is naturally number one.

LetÕ s get back to MontpelierÑ True, the governor told reporters last week that he was on a Ò heightened state of alertÓ regarding what IBM was or wasnÕ t going to do regarding essex in the coming weeks. so, then why depart on an out-of-state political trip and a vacation so soon after the news? WhatÕ s with so many elected get out of Dodge. (Alas, this editor doesnÕ t want to appear too cynical; after all the governor may be working a new deal, with a new high-tech employer, on the phone from one of his $5 million properties. no matter, gov. shumlinÕ s concern doesnÕ t come across as genuine, especially when he hasnÕ t had a lot of nice things to say about IBM over the years.

•When he headed up the Vermont State Senate, then State Senator Shumlin called an IBM executive Ò a liarÓ regarding energy policy.

•IBM officials have been clear about state transportation and infrastructure improvements that are vitally needed to help keep and grow their business. So, one of the first things newly elected Gov. Shumlin did a few years ago was to pound the final nail in the Circumferential Highway project coffin.

•On the subject of energy and doing business in Vermont, under Gov. Shumlin’s leadership our electricity costs have jumped from being among the lowest in the northeastern region to now one of the highest in the entire UsA. ItÕ s not just a few critics saying this. In a recent WCAX-TV interview, Vermont economist Art Woolf said, Ò Our electric rates are pretty highÑ very high by national standards, and they are going up, whereas nationally they are flat or down, that’s an issue...” reacting to the IBM news last week, gOP chair David sunderland didnÕ t mince words: Ò In this time of economic uncertainty in our state, the lesson for Vermonters may be that policies enacted in Montpelier have real consequences for our state. Decisions about who we elect as our chief executive, and who we elect to represent us in Montpelier, have an impactÑ sometimes a profound impactÑ on our lives, our incomes, our families and future opportunities.Ó Trying to save threatened IBM jobs at this point appears moot. ItÕ s time to cut our loses and move on.

or sounded together to play a chord. The carillonneur plays by striking a keyboard with black and white keys and foot pedals that can help produce different kinds of sound. each key is connected by wire to a bell clapper so different bells are rung depending on which key is struck.Ó sacheli also provided us with a brief history of the amazing Middlebury bells: Ò It is a 75-step climb up to Mead Memorial ChapelÕ s bell tower. With 48 bells, MiddleburyÕ s instrument is considered a traditional carillon,Ó sacheli noted. Ò The pitch of MiddleburyÕ s heaviest bell is e in the middle octave. It weighs 2,300 pounds, roughly the same as the Liberty Bell. In 1915, the instrument was begun with eleven bells by the Meneely bell foundry in Watervliet, n.Y. nine bells remain from that work. In 1986, the instrument was enlarged to its present size with bells made by Paccard-Fonderie des Cloches in Annecy, France. The enhanced carillon was presented in 1986 as a gift from then Chairman of the Board of Trustees Allen Dragone Õ 50 and his wife Jane. 27 bells remain from that work. In 2001, 12 bells were recast or replaced by Meeks & Watson of georgetown, Ohio.Ó For the many fans of the collegeÕ s annual carillon program, hereÕ s a tidbit you may not be aware of. Of course, you may never get a glimps of it, but one of the bells is inscribed with a Lord Tennyson poem: Ò Ring in the valiant man and free the larger heart, the kindlier hand! Ring out the darkness of the land, ring in the Christ that is to be!Ó The 2014 Carillon series includes the best of the bell artists.

Middlebury College’s carillons ring in July 4

lou@addison-eagle.com MIDDLeBUrY Ñ The sound of American freedom will ring out loud and clear on the Middlebury College campus starting this July 4. This yearÕ s Independence Day will kick off the summer-long beautiful sounds of ringing bells of the 29th Annual Middlebury College Carillon series.

Free performances get underway Friday, July 4, and will continue Friday evenings during most of the summer starting at 5 p.m. The carillon bell events are centered around the collegeÕ s historic Mead Memorial Chapel bell tower.

According to Liza sacheli, director of the collegeÕ s Mahaney Center for the Arts, Ò each year, musicians from around the world come to Middlebury to perform in the ChapelÕ s soaring tower, high above the college campus. All of the concerts are free and open to the public, and can be enjoyed on the steps of Mead Chapel or on the surrounding lawns.Ó Carillon bells first captured the pop culture’s imagination with the 1953 Hollywood film, “Niagara”, which starred Marilyn Monroe and Joseph Cotton. The Hitchcock-like, Technicolor thriller was filmed on location at Niagara Falls; there the action centers around Cotton’s dark character luring Monroe’s flirty, femme-fatale character to her death under the big carillon bells of the rainbow Tower on the Canadian side of the falls. so, what exactly is a carillon? Ò A carillon is a musical instrument typically housed in the bell tower of a church or other municipal building,Ó according to sacheli. Ò Its sound is produced by at least 23 cast bronze, cupshaped bells, which are played serially to produce a melody,

Bristol’s annual Outhouse Race is fun, wacky BrIsTOL Ñ every year, to celebrate Independence Day, the great Bristol Outhouse race runs in a straight line from the crosswalk in front of st. Ambrose Catholic Church on West street to the finish line at the traffic light.

There can be up to four outhouses entered per heat and there are usually four heats. The actual course length has never been measured.

A registration table is set up under a tent on the west side of the announcerÕ s stage in front of Holley Hall. next to the announcer is a large poster showing the number of heats, the entries for each heat and the ticket color assigned to each entrant, and as the race progresses, the winner of each heat. The heat assignments are made in a random drawing. The winner of each heat then moves on to the final heat to determine who will be the World Champion Outhouse racer.

Members of the crowd can bet on their favorite entrant in a heat by buying tickets ($1 each) of the color assigned to that entrant for that heat. All tickets are numbered and double, so the purchaser gets one half and the seller retains the other half.

What follows is a sample outhouse race scenario: Suppose in the first heat that the entrants are teams W, X, Y, and Z. Team W has been assigned the red ticket color, team X has been assigned the blue ticket color, team Y has been assigned the white ticket color, and team Z has been assigned the orange ticket color. You wish to bet that team X will win this heat. You then buy a blue ticket from a pair of ticket sellers (who are volunteers helping out the Five Town ggg Club, the sponsor of the great Bristol Outhouse race) one of whom is wearing a sandwich board listing the names of the entrants for this first heat and the ticket color assigned to each and the other who collected money and makes change. There is generally no shortage of ticket sellers nor enthusiasm for ticket purchases.

The first heat is run, and team Y is declared the winner. Team Y was assigned the orange color, which means that your blue ticket

can be properly discarded, along with all the other blue tickets, red tickets, and yellow tickets sold for the first heat.

Do not despair: there are three more heats and a final heat to come, and your dollar, along with all the other dollars wagered on this race, will go to help defray the costs of next years Bristol 4th of July Celebration. The orange tickets sold for the first heat are placed in a marked envelope.

This process is repeated for each remaining heat, with ticket sales occurring during a 15-20 minute interlude between the heats.

Once all heats have been run, the winners of each heat are assigned a ticket color for the running of the final heat, which runs exactly like the preliminary heats described above.

At the conclusion of the final heat attention is turned to the judgeÕ s stage.

All orange ticket stubs from the first heat are dumped into a container, stirred, and one stub is pulled out. The number on this ticket is read over the PA system and the person who holds the matching color and number wins a $25.00 cash prize! At this time a nice trophy is presented to the members of team X, the winning team from the first heat. This process is repeated for the other three heats.

The winning ticket for the final heat, where the World Champion Outhouse racer is determined, wins a cash prize of $75, and the winning team receives a nice trophy that is somewhat larger than the rest!

A trophy is then presented to the team, as selected by a consensus of the race organizers, who has the best decorated outhouse.

Right: Every year, to celebrate Independence Day, the Great Bristol Outhouse Race runs in a straight line from the crosswalk in front of St. Ambrose Catholic Church on West Street to the finish line at the traffic light.

of representatives. He mounted the rostrum and addressed the gathered dignitaries. Ò Hold on, Harry,Ó growled the gruff, bald speaker, sam rayburn of Texas, Ò I have to introduce you.Ó Truman spoke without the brilliant Harvard phrases or the polished eloquence of FDr, but he spoke from the heart to millions of hearts: He pledged to carry on the war on two continents to eventual victory and unconditional surrender of Germany and Japan. He promised to fulfill the commitments made by his four-term predecessor. His speech was a great success, applauded on both sides of the aisle.

He concluded with these words: Ò At this moment, I have in my heart a prayer. As I have assumed my heavy duties, I humbly pray Almighty god, in the words of King solomon: give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people that I may discern between good and bad, for who is able to judge this thy so great a people. I ask only to be a good and faithful servant of my Lord and my people.Ó The hushed House Chamber erupted in thunderous applause. It was said of Franklin D. roosevelt that he was for the people. But Harry Truman was the people. He was a humble man because he knew the dangers of pride. Pride goes before a fall, he knew. He read that somewhere.

Bomoseen back in the 1960s, but was subsequently moved onto the ranch to better accommodate growing audiences. eight rodeo events, held each saturday evening at 8 oÕ clock, are offered between July 4 and Labor Day for up to 2,000 visitors.

While the rodeo season is short up here in northern territory, roping, riding, steer wrestling, bull riding, and much more, are offered to eager audiences. Many rodeo attendees are either repeat visitors or curious first-timers. If you’ve never seen a rodeo event, chances are a Pond Hill show will make you a lifelong fan.

The OÕ rourkes handle all aspects of ranch operationsÑ from livestock to live entertainment. For example, Harry and his siblings can often be seen on horseback either checking out riders, giving riding lessons, inspecting cattle and horses, or working cleanup at saturday rodeo events.

If youÕ re simply a fan of westerns, country and western music, want to ride a horse, or are just curious about rodeo, Pond Hill ranch is close to home, and itÕ s guaranteed fun for the whole family. so, saddle up and head westÑ to Pond Hill ranch!

Check It Out: The ranch is open daily during the summer 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. rodeos are held every saturday, at 8 p.m., between July 4 and Labor Day. The ranch is located in Castleton just south of Castleton state College, off old route 4, at 1683 Pond Hill ranch rd.

Mt. Independence: Turning a retreat into victory July 4-5, 2014

By Lou Varricchio

lou@addison-eagle.com OrWeLL Ñ Vietnam. Iraq. Afghanistan.

Most Americans arenÕ t especially fond of military withdrawals; thereÕ s something that smacks of defeat in the very act. But fear notÑ apparently, thereÕ s a large group of Vermonters who find a little known 18th-century military withdrawal something toÑ wellÑ celebrate.

According to elsa gilbertson, regional Vermont historic site administrator, the July 5-6, 1777, withdrawal of the northern American Army during the revolutionary War was actually a good thing; it utimately led to the mammoth American victory at saratoga just three months later. gilbertson said that Americans retreated from their fortifications at Mount Independence in Orwell, and Fort Ticonderoga across the Lake Champlain narrows, as the British under Lt. gen. John Burgoyne drew near.

To celebrate the 1777 American withdrawal from the lakeside fortsÑ letÕ s call it the successful, strategic prelude to the saratoga victoryÑ a small group of revolutionary War reenactors will honor the 237th anniversary of the retreat with a forced march of their own this July 3-4.

Ò They will follow in the footsteps of history, leaving the Mount Independence state Historic site on Thursday, July 3, about 10 a.m.,Ó according to gilbertson. Ò The public is invited to send them off on their approximately 26-mile-long hike... They will arrive in time for the Battle of Hubbardton revolutionary War Living History Weekend, July 5 and 6, honoring the anniversary of the July 7, 1777, battle.Ó The public can be on the lookout for the costumed walkers as they march down Mount Independence road, Old stage road, route 144, Hortonia road, and Frog Hollow road, then ending up at the Hubbardton Battlefield State Historic site in Hubbardton on Friday, July 4.

We caution readers: British spies found along the soliders marching route will likely swing from the nearest elm tree. (Uh, weÕ re kidding, of course. TodayÕ s British allies are always welcome guests here in Vermont. All is forgiven.)

The Mount Independence state Historic site, a national Historic Landmark, is one of the best preserved revolutionary War archaeological sites. It is located near the end of Mount Independence road six miles west of the intersection of Vermont routes 22A and 73 in Orwell.

It has an air conditioned museum, six miles of trails, and is open daily through Oct. 13, 9:30 to 5:00. Call (802) 948-2000 for information.

Check It Out: The Hubbardton Battlefield

state Historic site preserves the location of VermontÕ s only revolutionary War battle. It is on Monument Hill road six miles off VT route 30 in Hubbardton or seven miles off exit 5 on Us route 4 in Castleton. The site is open Thurs-

days through sundays, 9:30 to 5 p.m., through Oct. 13. Call 802-273-2282. For more on the state-owned Historic sites visit: www.historicsites.vermont.gov. You can join the Vermont state Historic sites on Facebook.

If it wasn’t for the withdrawl of American forces from Forts Ticonderoga and Independence in July 1777, the October 1777 victory at Saratoga may not have happened. Artist John Trumbull captured America’s shining moment through his famous work, “Surrender of General Burgoyne”, 45 years later.
