VUHS students organize local foods feast

By Hannah Mueller

hannah@willowell.org VERGENNES — One day last week, everything on the lunch menu at V ergennes Union High School arrived from Addison County farms.

From the bacon quiche and veggie chili to the whole wheat br ead and apple crisp, all ingredients were local at the sixth-annual Local Foods Feast sponsored by the high school’s Nutrition Committee, Café Services foodservice c ompany, a nd t he Walden Project.

Marcy Langlais is a senior in the W alden Pr oject; the full-time outdoor alternative pr ogram hosted

by Vergennes High School.

Marcy has been instr umental in organizing the local lunch for the past three years, and has a number of r easons for dedicating her time to the event.

“The Local Foods Feast is an important event because it helps raise awareness about what’s right in your backyar d,” Langlais said. “It gets kids involved in cooking and learning about the food they eat, it supports the local economy and makes connections in the community stronger, and helps strengthen the connections between students and staff.”

The Walden Project garden, maintained by students, contributed about five pounds of garlic, eight pounds of leeks, and more than thr ee pounds of kale to the menu.

Other participating farms this year included Gleason Grains, the Last Resort Farm, Monument Farms, Otter Cr eek Farm, Lalumiere F arm, O livia’s Croutons, Flower Power , Misty Knoll Farm, and Champlain Orchards.

Real maple syrup? It’s the law—almost From Joe Milliken

newmarketpress@denpubs.com WASHINGTON, D.C. — A new bill co-pr oposed by V ermont U.S. Senators Patrick Lahey (D) and Bernie Sanders (I), along with H.R.3363 Maple Agriculture Pr otection and Law Enfor cement (MAPLE), would make it a felony to sell counterfeit maple syrup, as well as increasing the penalties o f t he e xisting l aw f rom o ne y ear i n prison to five.

In order to protect the integrity of Vermont's signature product, which r etails for ar ound $50 a gallon, the bill will help discourage a gr owing number of businesses and individuals who ar e producing phony maple syrup and selling it as the real thing. This is a serious thr eat to the state's economy, which str ongly depends on its natural food resources.

Vermont Maple Syr up is cr eated fr om maple tree sap and has no artificial ingredients, and last year it accounted for roughly $30 million in sales for the state. V ermont Maple Syr up pr oducers work hard to produce a high-quality natural food product which bears the state's name, ther efore it is important to uphold the integrity of the pr oduct and to make sure consumers are buying a genuine syrup that is actually produced in Vermont.

Maple syrup is particularly susceptible to adulteration due to the high dif ferential in cost between cane/corn syr up ($0.40/lb) and maple syrup ($2.75/lb) on the bulk market.

Manager Cherish Hulst of Dakin Farms in Ferrisburgh stands by her employer’s Vermont maple syrup products.

plan, with inflationary increases in wages, benefits, heating, vehicle fuel, electricity and fixed costs, such as insurance. The $8.5 million proposal reflected a $230,000, or 2.8 per cent, increase in spending fr om FY12, which translates to a 3.4 cent increase in the property tax rate. The Board challenged the administration and department heads to reduce the proposed spending plan by at least $100,000, which would shave the property tax rate increase to less than 2 cents.

In other news, the Select Board is seeking candidates to fill a vacancy on the Design Advisory Committee.

For those without such a ries of individual stories that ar e naturally interrelated. It’s light and fun and captur es long backstory to refer to, the book still feels true as it chronicles the lives of the workers that feeling of tourist-town locals getting and the sometimes complex political maneuthrough it all very nicely.

Pritchard never says the book is located in vering that goes on in every small town.And there’s plenty more similarities to ferret out.

His little town who work there. The book opens as the seaat land’s end on the peninsula has different- son is about to get under way , with all the last-minute prep work being done feverishly named str eets but the locale is still very familiar. The fishing boats steam out past the ly. The owner, Dutch Dugan, wants to be the Hensche Islands to get to the Whalen Banks best; his wait staf f just want to get thr ough for good fishing. Ther e is a St. Peter ’s the season. The cooks ar e likely to swing punches, and the bartender is the guy you Church, and annual Blessing of the Fleet, want serving you drinks and keeping it all Herschel’s Guest House, Big Jim the town going, all night. The piano player is married manager, Vodka Man, the town dr unk who decides to run for selectman, the giant fire in but has eyes for a lonely but lovely waitre ss.

The customers just want their food perfect the middle of town, the dr ug stor e with its and fast — and to get away with acting out fountain wher e plenty of big decisions get made on the side, and a very nice r endition rather badly. And mostly they do.

But Dutch has some problems, including a of town meeting, complete with the painful shady character who wants to provide “proand ancient folding chairs, a fast food zoning bylaw and a big dust-up over nude tection” that Dutch is sur e he doesn’t need.

Could be, he’s wrong.

The other stories unfold at the same time.

There’s Big Jim, who’s trying to keep his power base going despite heavy opposition from certain selectmen, and a pesky legal problem that will put him in bed (metaphorically) with the chief of police.

The other story is Jody Maguir e, a young guy who comes to town and wants to get a berth on a fishing boat. His ability to cook finally wins him a spot, but things take a bad turn out in the fog with a hold full of bales of illegal smoke.

Does Big Jim dodge the bullet? Does Jody get away clean? Will the piano player finally hit the right chord with the waitress? Will Dutch survive the newspaper review by the mystery diner?

There ar e a couple of sudden deaths but even those feel familiar , like they ar e the stuff of local legend. And though this is not a deep story emotionally, Pritchard manages to give some of his characters unexpected depth. Their inner dialogue is often very compelling.

To get a taste for his writing, here’s what Pritchard says about the town at 3A.M., and those still out and about: “Whether the stragglers wandering up Bay Street from the bars and r estaurants, the young men and women sailing along, ghostlike, on clicking bicycles, or the men loitering under thepiers with vacant, hungry expressions . . . nothing

‘Funny Girl’ in Middlebury a funny play

est endeavor. The curr ent production did not disappoint, but jtsquire@chcb.org rather, it surpassed my elevated expectations.

MIDDLEBURY—Vermont is In reading the program notes, well known for many things, such as maple syrup, cheese, lo- I discover ed that “Funny Girl” evived on cal beers and wines, and fall fo- has never been r Broadway, due in no small part liage. Per haps lesser known, but equally as impressive, is our to the extraor dinary Barbra Streisand, who embodied the wonderful regional theater.

On any weekend, ther e ar e lead role through 1,800 perdozens of productions across formances.

Tackling a musical of this the state. Recently , I had the magnitude takes a lot of chutzpleasure of seeing one of these pah, and the cast and cr ew did events, the Middlebury Comso with gusto. munity Players’ pr oduction of The or chestra was excellent, “Funny Girl,” with Kim Anderas wer e the sets and lighting, son in the leading r ole, at the and the casting was spot-on, Town Hall Theater in downparticularly the r oles of Eddie town Middlebury.

Ryan (played by Leif Erickson), I have seen Anderson perMrs. Brice (played by Linda form in Stowe Theater ’s “The Brownell) and Flo Siegfield Wild Party,” so I was looking forward to seeing her in this lat- (played by Glenn Andres).

At the center of it all is the story of stage comedienne Fanny Brice, played by the very talented Kim Anderson.

Anderson’s quirky comedic mannerisms wer e r eminiscent of Carol Burnett, and her expressive face captured the highs and l ows o f F anny B rice’s b ittersweet life. Last, but not least, was her fabulous, soaring voice.

I would imagine it would be intimidating for any stage performer to even think about walking in Barbra Streisand’s footsteps, but as the dir ector Doug Anderson noted, ”…Kim is fearless.” She embraced the challenge, singing such classics as “People” and “Don’t rain on my Parade” with a fullness and timbre all her own. These ar e huge songs, meant to be sung in a huge voice, and Kim (in the

parlance of stagecraft) “absolutely nailed it.”

As I h ad m entioned e arlier, Vermont is well known for a variety of things. Regional live theater, particularly this pr oduction of “Funny Girl”, should be on everyone’s list. Seeing a show of such high caliber in the historical town of Middlebury , Vermont, r eminds me once again of richness and bounty that is our small state.

So, her e ar e your mar ching orders: Go see the show.

“Funny Girl” will play a total of eight performances. Her are the remaining curtain calls: Nov. 25 and 26 at 8 p.m., with 2 p.m. matinees on Nov. 26 and 27. Tickets are $20 (except for opening night) and may be purchased at www.townhalltheater.org, 802 382-9222, or at the THT Box Office.

By the time Labor Day or lls around we feel like we know these people at least well enough to buy them a drink or stop for a chat at the Stop & Shop.

The story could have used a stronger conclusion, but like summer, sometimes a book just winds down and ends. And that’s ok, too.

Pritchard has worked and/or written for The New York Review of Books, the New York Free Press, and Cavalier. His novels include “Benny’s Mission”, “Thr ee Sexes in Search of the Cr eddlebones”, “Symphony”, and “The Thrift Shop Mur ders”. His collection of short stories, “T erminal Vibrato”, is available from Beaufort Books.

In addition, Pritchar d’s work has appeared in the International Philosophical Quarterly, Psychoanalysis and Psycho-therapy, the Kenyon, New England, and Wisconsin Reviews, and elsewhere; he has had nine productions of his plays in New York City.

He is the author of “The Elements of Style: Updated and Annotated for Pr esent-Day Use,” and a poetry collection, “Making Up for Lost Dreams.”

“Restaurant” is available at Vermont book stores and online at Amazon.com.

From the Editor

I’m just a regular guy

A Kreskin on my mind I I

was a teen when the Amazing Kreskin burst upon the television airwaves in the very late 1960s.

He appeared on popular talk and variety programs ranging from “The Steve Allen Show” and “The Mike Douglas Show” to the “The Tonight Show” and his own syndicated Canadian T.V. show.

Remember “Tonight Show” host Johnny Carson’s Great Karnak comic character—knows all, sees all? Well, Carson based his weird oriental magus on Kreskin.

Fast forward to 2011. Kreskin is alive and well. He is in his late 70s and continues to perform—a physical feat, in and of itself, amazing. Just last week, I found myself in Kreskin’s sphere. His astounding mental skills were on display—live and on stage—in little ol’ Vermont.

The Amazing Kreskin appeared at the Tupelo Music Hall in White River Junction, Nov. 25 to a sold-out theater. He warmed up the eager audience with a neat trick: he hid his paycheck for the night’s show. Next, he offered $50,000 to anybody in the audience who could prove that he employed paid secret assistants or confederates in any phase of the evening. (I could have used the $50k but I was not up to the task of proving Mr. Kreskin wrong. No one else in the audience could find the check or detect covert helpers.)

Always mystifying audiences, it’s clear to see that Kreskin continues to cast a long shadow in the entertainment world.

In 2009, actor Tom Hanks produced, and co-starred with John Malkovich, in “The Great Buck Howard” which was evocative of Kreskin’s life. And after 50 years of performing, Kreskin has seen a new lease on life—he has a whole new cult following recent appearances on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon”, Howard Stern, David Letterman, and recently re-

tired Regis Philbin.

It’s hard to define Kreskin—mentalist, visionary, super mind—but one thing the man doesn’t like to be called is psychic.

He never claims to possess paranormal or clairvoyant powers. Who needs supernatural puffery when the truly amazing things at work for Kreskin are all within the realm of science, theatrics, and humanity.

Born George Joseph Kresge in 1935 (location unknown, but some say New Jersey), Kreskin modeled his mentalist act after the famous newspaper comic strip “Mandrake the Magician”.

“By the time I was 12, I was already performing, doing private parties. I was always at home,” Kreskin said.”I didn’t go travelling because my parents couldn’t afford it. I spent time with aunts and uncles in New Jersey. I had relatives in Bethlehem and Allentown, Pa., and I spent weeks of my summer with them.”

It was in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley—which happens to be my hometown—where George Joseph Kresge began to develop his Amazing Kreskin persona.

The young mentalist’s stage routine— part magician, part mental marvel— clicked with audiences. Soon, his stage and screen appearances mounted and his successes have continued ever since.

When asked to sum up his amazing rise in the international show business world, Kreskin said, “If my name is forgotten in years to come, I can only hope that I have taught people to wonder.”

Thankfully, Kreskin and his sense of wonder are with us still.

Letters to the Editor

Rutland Boys & Girls Club open house

To the Editor: We want to express our deep appreciation for the gener osity that our community has once again shown the Boys & Girls Club of Rutland County. Now is the time of year when our vital solicitation appears in mailboxes; and with the challenges of the slow economy and T ropical Storm Ir ene, we appreciate the dif ficult choices our donors face.

As members of the boar d, we can attest that your contributions ar e put to the best use. The club’s sole focus is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. The club’s professional staff is a bridge to hope and opportunity for these kids.

Without the club and our rich array of after-school and vacation period pr ograms, many of our children and youth might spend this time alone at home or hanging out on the streets. Research shows that after-school hours are the time that unsupervised young

people are most likely to engage in risky behaviors.

We offer a well rounded curriculum, activities, healthy meals and a safe and positive environment for ages 6 to 18; including an innovative daytime pr ogram to serve older teens that ar e not in school and need guidance and support to get back on track.

We encourage you to come see how our donors’ gifts are put to good use.

Please stop in for an open house at 71 Merchants Row, 4-6 p.m. on Dec. 19 or any day.

You are also welcome to visit our location at 25 Rossiter Street in Brandon.

Think of the Boys & Girls Club as an investment in a future we all share.

Interspersed between the lessons, Advent and Christmas music is performed by the Middlebury College Chapel Choir, under the dir ection of Jef f Buettner , or sung by the congr egation. College Or ganist and Professor of Music Emeritus Emory Fanning provides the accompaniment, as well as music before and after the service. The carillon atop the

chapel welcomes people with the sound of bells ringing down the hillside. Middlebury College Chaplain Laurie Jordan leads the service.

This year ’s anniversary pr ogram includes music by T omás Luis de V ictoria, Pavel Chesnokof f, W illiam Matthias, Herbert Howells, and David Willcocks. Special guest performers for this anniversary service include tenor Dan Marcy, an Affiliate Artist with the Middlebury College Department of Music; The Snowflake Brass Quartet; and a violin quartet.

The service is based on the Advent Service of Nine Lessons and Caro ls that has been celebrated every year at King’s College, Cambridge, England since 1918, and is broadcast to millions worldwide on Christmas morning through BBC W orld Service Radio. It was originally planned by Eric MilnerWhite, the Dean of King’s College Chapel. He had been a W orld W ar I British army chaplain, and became a liturgical pioneer who was convinced that the Chur ch of England needed more imaginative worship. Though the music changes each year, the backbone of the service—the prayers and lessons—has r emained virtually unchanged since those days.

The first Middlebury service took place in 1971, under the dir ection of Emory Fanning and Chaplain Charles

P. Scott. They wer e convinced that the college’s music department was up to the challenge, and that the community would welcome this colorful and moving celebration. One of the readers that first year was a Middlebury College senior named James H. Douglas (later one of Vermont’s most popular Republican governors), who read the Nativity lesson from the second chapter of Luke.

Douglas will return this year as a reader for the 40th anniversary services.

Middlebury’s Lessons and Car ols was made famous by two public television specials. Christmas in Vermont: A Celebration of Lessons and Carols was filmed in 1984. And in 1988, V ermont Public Television produced A Vermont Christmas, narrated by actor Bur gess Meredith and filmed in Middlebury and on the College’s Br ead Loaf campus. Each production was rebroadcast, over several years, by over 200 public television stations nationally.

Both services of Lessons and Car ols for Advent and Christmas are free and open to the public, but each year , generous donations are collected for HOPE (Helping Overcome Poverty’s Effects), Elderly Services, and Addison County Home Health and Hospice.

Copper theft causes collateral damage at Foote Mansion

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com CORNWALL—Vermont State Police officers are currently investigating a burglary that took place at the historic Foote Farm Mansion on Vermont Route 125 in Cornwall. The mansion, currently for sale, has made its mark in local and television history.

Built in 1890, the Foote mansion has been a popular photographic landmark along Route 125 between the Lake Champlain Bridge and Middlebury.

The house remained a derelict for many years and was locally known as the Ghost House. It is best known, by film historians, as the mansion that originally inspired the 196466 Addams Family television series house; however , the Foote house never appear ed on the show . A similar period mansion in Exeter, N.H., was eventually used as the television show’s model.

Lincoln-based builder James Apgar had been remodeling the Foote mansion for the past seven years. He noticed the damage and theft Nov. 22.

According to police, sometime between Nov . 2 and Nov .

22, an unknown person or gro up of persons forced entry into the unoccupied building and stole copper fr om the basement.

In the pr ocess of stealing high-priced copper fittings, a water pump and pressure tank were damaged; the resulting basement flood caused considerable damage.

A VSP news report said the estimated loss of the burglary and vandalism is between $3,500-$4,000.

Vermont has experienced an epidemic in copper thefts with several cases linked to the illegal dr ug trade in the region.

According to Keith Jentoft, a spokesperson at RSI Tech-

nologies, a European company which produces security systems used by industry to pr event copper theft, “skyr ocketing prices for copper have made what was once a minor nuisance into a major pr oblem costing over $1 billion a year .

Pipes, wir es, cables, gutters, flashing ar e being torn fr om walls and buildings. Roof-top air units are being stripped of their copper coils. Thieves target copper in vacant buildings or difficult to secur e areas,often without power or communication lines.”

Jentoft noted that the collateral damage done by thieves ripping out pipes and wires far exceeds the actual cost of the copper stolen.

Environmentalists win as ATV state land rule repealed RUTLAND—The Vermont Agency of Natural Resources filed its Final Proposed Rule with the Vermont Secretary of State and the Vermont Legislative Committee on Administrative Rules Nov. 23. The agency has decided to r epeal its 2009 r ule that permitted the use of ATVs on state land.

Following a public hearing this year, and the review of thousands of comments, V ermont ANR has decided to pr oceed with the repeal of the ATV Rule. The result, in plain English, means ATVs will be banned fr om state lands.

Vermont ANR Secr etary Deb Markowitz said, “After weighing the substance of the comments and concerns about the legality of the original rule we decided to move ahead on the r epeal. We have also taken concr ete steps to addr ess the V ermont ATV Sportsmen’s Association legitimate need for limited connector trails across public land.”

Under the separation of powers in state government, a state agency may only adopt a rule if it has been given the power to do so by the legislature.

As a check on the executive branches’ rulemaking authority all rules go to the Legislative Rules Committee befor e they become effective.

Markowitz said “in 2009, LCAR voted unanimously to object to the ATV rule. They strongly believed that ANR did not have the power to adopt the r egulation. Because we cannot point to clear authority to adopt this

Maple syrup from page 1 “Adulteration of any food product is a concern because consumers should get what they pay for ," T im Perkins said in a r ecent interview .

Perkins works at the University of V ermont/Proctor Maple Research Center (UVMPMRC).

"There a re s everal d ifferent types of adulteration of maple syrup. The simplest is dilution or substitution of maple syrup with a cheaper sugar source, a second type is artificial lightening of syrup and there are others as well. Fortunately we have good methods to detect adulteration of maple syrup."

In conjunction with the Vermont Agency of Agriculture and the International Maple Syr up Institute, UVMPMRC investigates suspect syr ups and do random samples of various

rule, the regulation is vulnerable to legal attack, with little likelihood of pr evailing in court.”

The rule is being challenged in the Washington County Superior Court by the Conservation Law Foundation.

Markowitz said, "it does not make sense to try to defend the ATV Rule in court given that LCAR has alr eady determined that no authority to adopt the rule exists.”

Approximately 2,000 members of the public commented that ANR should not r epeal the ATV rule.

Only 1,000 members of the public expressed support for ANR’s pr oposal to r epeal the ATV Rule.

Those in support of the r epeal commented that ATVs have significant adverse impacts on the environment.

“There is no question that ATV riders, under the leadership of VASA, are more organized and awar e of the r ules governing ATV riding that they have been in the past, and that ther e may be limited situations wher e crossing state land is appr opriate,” Markowitz said, “but ATV riding can cause environmental damage, especially when ATV riders do not follow the law; and right now, the state does not have the resources to permit it to enforce against illegal ATVs.” Markowitz said her agency is working with VASA to use existing authority to provide license agr eements for limited use of state property.

syrups pulled fr om stor e shelves. "It doesn’t seem to be a widespr ead pr oblem within the maple industry proper (bulk, wholesale or major r etail markets)," Perkins said.

"It is mor e of an issue of those who lurk on the fringes and sell moderate quantities (gallon to 5-gallon containers) to individual customers. In that case, 5 gallons of maple syr up would be worth about $150 on the bulk market, but 5 gallons of corn syrup would cost only $22.

That’s a pretty big incentive to do the wr ong thing, therefore we need an equally big penalty to pr event people fr om doing the wrong thing ."

UVMPMRC has yet to find an established maple business that is cheating customers, but it has occurr ed in the past. However , it is still important to be vigilant and for the penalty to be large enough to be a deter-

"Given that it is so easy to sell via the internet, an unscrupulous person could possibly do fairly we ll before being caught, and t he penalty would be minor in relation. By putting mor e teeth into the law , it might dissuade those who try to cheat the system."

Space-time and beyond “Man... can go up against gravitation in a balloon, and why should he not hope that ultimately he may be able to stop or accelerate his drift along the T ime-Dimension, or even turn about and travel the other way.”—H.G. Wells Does 21st century physics permit time travel? Yes, if you consider that many of today’s ideas about time travel involve space, hypervelocity r ockets, standing the known universe on its ear, and the expenditur e of vast amounts of energy.

The first (and, so far, only) proven time- travel idea is called reletavistic time dilation. It was presented by Albert Einstein’s special r elativity equations in 1917.

The now famous “twin paradox” is often used to illustrate how time dilation works.

Let’s consider 20-year-old twin sisters Megan and Molly. Megan trains as an astronaut and prepares for a fiveyear (shiptime) r oundtrip interstellar voyage aboar d a nuclear-fusion power ed

rocketship. She climbs aboard, zooms of f into the outer limits, and leaves her twin Molly far behind, back on Earth.

Five years past aboard Megan’s rocketship as the brave astronaut r eturns for her return glide to Earth. But back on Earth—according to sister Molly’s life—30 years have passed.

Meanwhile, Megan’s rocketship lands on Earth with lots of fanfare.

Back h ome f rom h er s tar trek, at age 25, Megan rides in a limo down New York City’s Broadway for a gigantic homecoming parade.

Meanwhile, twin-sister Molly, who accompanies her in the parade limo, looks very depressed and considerably older at age 50.

Why the bizaar e 30-year

age spread between the twin sisters? What happened?

Time dilation, a kind of one-way time travel into the future, works on the pr oven idea that clocks in fast-moving vehicles run slower than their coounterparts on the ground.

Thus, Megan’s spaceship clock ran a lot slower than Molly’s Earth clock, especially as sister Megan’s spaceship began to accelerate at near-relativistic speeds. And that’s why Megan aged 30 years versus Molly’s 5 years.

Time dilation and the twin paradox was proven in October 1971 when experimenters Joseph Hafele and Richard Keating used four sets of identical cesium atomic clocks to test Einstein’s equations. Their now famous experiment is

Seeing

known as the Hafele–Keating experiment.

Identical atomic clocks were flown in two jet airc raft around the world, while their twins wer e left on the ground at the U.S. Naval Observatory.

In a nutshell, flying eastward (the dir ection of Earth’s r otation), the clocks aboard the jets lost 59 nanoseconds compar ed to the gr ound clocks. Over great distances and at far higher velocities—like our story of twins Megan and Molly—the time dif ference would be even greater.

There are a growing number of fascinating time-travel theories that use modern physics: consider Godelian time travel, T aub-NUT-Misner spacetime, cosmic strings, Mobius time, and many others.

To add spice to H.G. Wells’ time travel quote presented at the beginning of this column, physicist Michio Kaku has boldly stated that, “time travel is now simply an engineering pr oblem.”

We’ll explor e mor e about the emer ging field of timetravel theory, and its link to space-time, in the coming weeks.

MIDDLEBURY—Three members of the Middlebury College field hockey team were honored when the NFHCA (National Field Hockey Coaches Association) released its AllAmerican teams.

Junior Lauren Greer (North Hampton, N.H.) earned a spot on t he f irst t eam, c lassmate M argaret S outher ( Scarsdale, N.Y.) was a second-team honor ee, while junior Charlotte Gardiner (Lar chmont, N.Y.) was named to the thir d team.

The group helped lead the Panthers to a 17-4 r ecord in ’11, with a trip to the NCAA Championship game.

Greer, who was also named the NESCAC player of the year, led the team and the nation in scoring. The junior’s 4.1 points/game were tops in Division III, while her .76 assists were second and her 1.66 goals were fifth.

Greer set single-season r ecords at Middlebury for goals (35), assists (16) and points (86) this fall, while also owning all three career scoring marks (73-31-177). Greer was a threetime NESCAC player of the week, scoring two or more goals 13 times this season. The junior has figur ed in over 64 percent (50/78) of her team’s goals this season, including 15 straight from October 1st-8th.

Souther was a first-team All-Region selection after earning second-team All-NESCAC honors. The junior defender helped anchor a Panther defense that allowed just 1.16 goals/game this season, including six shutouts. The Middlebury defense allowed more than one goal just six times in 21 games this season. Souther also got in on the of fense this season (2-8-12), finishing seventh on the team with a dozen points. Both of her goals came in an October 9th win over Babson, while she earned two assists in back-to-back wins over Williams.

Gardiner, a first-team All-NESCAC and All-Region selection, had a steady season up front for the Panthers. She finished the season third on the team in goals (7), assists (9) and was third in points with 23.

Gardiner scored two goals in a game twice this season, a Sept. 17 win at Colby as well as an Oct. 22 victory over Bates.

She also added a pair of helpers in the Bates game for a sixpoint effort. She ended the season with a pair of assists in an NCAA semifinal win over Bowdoin.

Feast

from page 1

Marcy Langlais is a VUHS senior in the Walden Project. She helped spearhead the school’s Local Foods Fest, serving food from Addison County farms.

The school’s food service contractor, Café Services, regularly purchases produce from the Walden garden, Lalumiere, and Champlain Or chards, among other local businesses. Or ganizers of the Local Foods Feast see it not as a one-time event, but a celebration of a trend towards incorporating more local foods into lunches everyday.

Walden students pr epared the food during the week befor e the Feast, and served up turkey vegetable soup, a squash-potato mash, local salad, and other dishes from behind the lunch counter. Jake Thompson, Nick S ymula, and Tobias Yandow played acoustic music for students during the lunch as part of the “local culture” aspect of the celebration, which students instituted last year.

Marcy Langlais noted some positive changes from last fall’s feast. “Ther e was mor e student involvement. Students knew what to expect mor e and wer e less surprised to see the local food than they were last year. We got the menu up beforehand to give them a better idea.”

Posters of the menu listing the participating farms were visible in the hallways the week before the feast.

Another addition since last year was a fundraiser component.

Langlais is spear heading a composting initiative at the school, the goal being to transport food scraps to the W alden garden, compost them, and send fr esh pr oduce back to the school.

Students made vanilla ice cream with Monument Farms milk and berries from the Last Resort Farm and teacher Kim Lunna’s farm, and sold servings in or der to support the composting project.
