newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — Across the USA, Habitat for Humanity provides affordable shelter nearly a half million Americans who might not otherwise afford what many of us take for granted—owning our own house. Locally, Habitat for Humanity of Addison County, Inc. has quietly provided housing for many families with the help of its local volunteers carrying hammer and nails to make dreams come true. And it’s an organization that rarely toots its own horn. That’s why the recent announcement of a $5,000 donation to the Addison County Habitat chapter, from the People’s United Community Foundation, the philanthropic arm of People’s United Bank, was a welcome surprise. “The donation from People’s United Community Foundation will assist in paying for the construction of our second of four houses we are building on a parcel of land in Cornwall,” said Bob Coffey, president of the Addison County Habitat affiliate. “Without the generous support of People’s United Community Foundation and other organizations, our mission to provide affordable housing to deserving families would be seriously jeopardized.” “We are pleased to support Habitat for Humanity and their housing project in Cornwall,” said Michael Seaver, of People’s United See HABITAT, page 14

BARRE — Thunder Road co-owner and founder Ken Squier received the prestigious Buddy Shuman Award during the 2012 NASCAR NMP Myers Brothers Award Luncheon in Las Vegas, Nev. The award is given to an “individual who has played a key role in the continued growth and success of Cup racing.” “Ken helped bring not only a voice, but also a face, to Cup racing,” said Michael Proud, director of marketing for Federal-Mogul who sponsored the award. “During every race there are dozens of drivers out there battling for track position. He was the first to bring those drivers’ personalities into the race coverage. That was a huge step that helped make the sport much more accessible for millions of fans.” The owner of Radio Vermont and former CBS broadcaster was the 56th winner of the Buddy Shuman award. The award is in memory of former NASCAR Grand National driver and chief technical inspector Louis Grier “Buddy” Shuman, who

Unionizing vs. Kids L

umped in among the hot-button issues in the resurgence of the union movement in the “rust belt” state—we include here the Middle Atlantic and New England regions—comes the idea of unionizing childcare workers. This topic is a hot one at the moment in Vermont, with providers and organizers pairing up or squaring off. At first glance, the idea of unionizing childcare providers might seem like the “right” thing to do for the workers, but like similar concepts, it’s worth examining the issue a bit closer. One local childcare provider who clearly opposes the idea of unionization is Martha Sullivan DeGraaf. Ms. van DeGraaf is a registered childcare provider living in Vergennes. She doesn’t like the idea of unionizing childcare providers for a variety of sound reasons. Unionizing childcare services really focuses on the providers, not the children; it promises increased pay, increased reimbursement rates, and professional development and training. “Very seldom do we hear discussion about child development or improved early education,” according to Ms. van DeGraaf. “As an independent childcare provider, I am able to set my own rates.” VanDeGraaf makes a valid point: Using her local childcare service as an example, she provides fair rates for today’s cashstrapped parents. They think her rates are reasonable while the pay is enough for vanDeGraaf to earn a living. “With a union,” vanDeGraaf said, “all these will be added to the costs of doing business. If I were forced to pay dues, or agency fees, I would be forced to impart some of those fees on my clients. How is increasing the costs of doing business and having to pass along some of those costs

going to benefit the children or families I serve?” VanDeGraaf isn’t the only local childcare provider who opposes the idea of unionization in her service sector. Unfortunately, other providers like her are reluctant to have their names appear in print as coming out against unions—we’ve asked to quote them and they declined unlike vanDeGraaf. “I am all for professional development and training to better myself as a provider, but there are programs available through the state that are not mandated or regulated by a union,” vanDeGraaf said. “The state pays for providers to become nationally accredited; it pays higher reimbursement rates for achieving quality standards and offers low cost or free workshops, classes and certifications that help me further the development of children. These same programs offer assistance opportunities to parents to reduce the costs of childcare.” From what VanDeGraaf has seen elsewhere, she doesn’t believe unions will always operate in the best interests of her little charges. “Education and growth benefits for children fall by the wayside in union discussions,” she said. “I believe a union will create more regulation and demand on me and consume valuable time that would otherwise be spent on the development of children.” Anytime we hear of teacher strikes at local schools, it always negatively impacts students and their learning environment. So, here’s an opportunity to keep unions away from Vermont’s childcare sector. Besides, politics—which is what unions seem to be about—have no place in the playpen. Lou Varricchio

Don’t worry, be happy

come from a long line of worriers. As a youngster and even as an adult I found it difficult to understand why mom would worry about the smallest of things. When you’re young, life’s an adventure. Each day brings new opportunity. Today it may have rained but tomorrow is sure to be sunny and bright. Tomorrow was always a new day, full of opportunity, new events that would shape the day and the world. Change was good. Change was exciting. Change was welcomed. So why is it that as you age, not only do things start to sag, hair grows grey and recedes and your concern for things both in your control and beyond, begin to weigh heavy on your mind? Change is not so good. Change brings turmoil and confusion. Change is uncomfortable and triggers resistance. Mom, and her mom before her, would stress out over the big news of the day as well as the every day tasks. Tested by the great depression, two world wars, an evolving cold war, Korean Conflict, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, assassinations, riots in the street and political corruption, they had plenty of big things to worry about. Looking back their world went from one major crisis event to another. Despite their fears and concerns there was always an optimism that things would turnout okay. There was a happiness that calmed the underlining fears. They had faith, they had family, they had a society that somehow gave them an inner confidence. They were told that they had nothing to fear but fear itself. So they went about the tasks of the days building their lives and their future, focused on their jobs, their family and their dependence on each other. As I age I find myself more stressed than in my early years. Not only do I worry about the big issues of the day, national and international events, but even the little things seem to be a greater concern than they once did. There are plenty of major issues to fret about as the world

turns and there is always any number of little things in life to bring about Dan Alexander heartburn Thoughts from and sleepBehind the Pressline less nights. Is worrying about life’s ups and downs hardwired into my DNA, a hereditary trait, or is it just a function of aging? Or, does it come about as you begin to realize your plans for the future don’t always work out given the ebb and flow of an ever changing landscape and with those you share the world. A recent survey revealed that a resilient attitude may be the secret to aging successfully. In fact they believe a positive attitude may be more important to aging than good physical health. So there may be some truth to the old wives tale of worrying one’s self to death. So the bottom line is this; Mayan calendar predicting the end of the world on December 21st of this year; fiscal cliff looming on the horizon; financial struggles; personal concerns; what to write in next week’s column…. Hey, bring em on. There is little we can’t overcome if we approach things with a positive, can do attitude. If we’ve learned anything through out time there will always be issues beyond our control and as mere humans we are fallible, destined to trip up. We only make things worse for ourselves if we dwell on the negative. We need to be responsible for our actions but we only go around once so we need to make the most of what we’ve been given, keep our focus on the future and our optimism high. Life is short. Every day is a gift, which is why they call it the “present.” Dan Alexander is associate publisher of New Market Press. He may be reached at dan@newmarketpressvt.com.

VUHS students recognized for leadership By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com VERGENNES — Students of Vergennes Union High School were abuzz about the pending annoucement of the school’s annual leadership awards—the DAR Good Citizen’s Award and the HOBY Youth Leadership Award. Students didn’t have to wait long to learn the names of the winners, according to VUHS’ Angela Gilbeau. Edward Devino III chosen for DAR Good Citizen’s Award, Gilbeau said. DAR is sponsored by the local Daughters of the American Revolution, Seth Warner Chapter. “Each year a senior is chosen for the DAR Good Citizen’s Award by faculty members nominating three seniors and then the senior class elects one of those three as their Good Citizen,” Gilbeau said. “We are proud to announce the 2013 Good Citizen is Edward ‘Eddie’ Devino. Congratulations to Eddie. He will also compete for a scholarship sponsored by the DAR Good Citizens committee by writing an essay and submitting a resume of his high school activities and achievements.”

Intended to encourage and reward the qualities of good citizenship, the DAR Good Citizen’s Award recognizes a student that possesses the qualities of dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism to an outstanding degree, Gilbeau noted. Actor Hugh O’Brien, who played lawman Wyatt Earp on television during the 1950s and early ‘60s, always had a soft spot for recognizing good things done teens. That’s why his HOBY Youth Leadership Award has been recongized by many schools nationally. “Every year, each high school in the United States may choose one sophomore to represent it at the state’s Hugh O’Brien Youth Leadership—HOBY—Conference,” Gilbeau said. “This year, Vergennes Union High School’s HOBY ambassador is Wesley Miedema.” Gilbeau said Miedema was nominated and selected for the honor based on his demonstrated and potential leadership skills and traits. “Wesley will attend the four-day HOBY Conference next spring where he will participate in seminars and meet with leaders in the fields of education, government, and the professions to discuss present and future issues,” Gilbeau said.

New resources available for community broadband use MONTPELIER — The Vermont Council on Rural Development is sharing toolkits and lessons learned from the e-Vermont Community Broadband Project. The resources will help rural communities in Vermont and throughout the United States make better use of online tools for community and economic development. One year from now, all Vermont households and businesses will have access to broadband service. The majority of Vermont has the infrastructure in place to provide a connection to high speed Internet. The access provides rural Vermonters with unprecedented opportunities for everything from business growth to continued education to civic engagement and community communications, but only if we know how to make best use of it. E-Vermont’s models for how communities can take advantage of these new opportunities online are now found at www.e4vt.org. Over the last two years, the e-Vermont project has brought seven partner organizations to 24 communities across the state to help build the skills needed for a digital age. Initiatives have ranged from connecting 1,294 Vermont students with one-to-one computing through Digital Wish to building online neighborhood conversations for over 8,500 subscribers in Front Porch Forum to creating a web presence for 15 municipalities with the Snelling Center for Government.

"I've had the opportunity to work one-onone advising more than 150 business owners in the last two years - they're tackling everything from basic establishment of an online presence in the way of websites, Google Places pages, e-mail marketing and Social Media to in-depth e-commerce strategies and mobile media development. In every corner of Vermont there are businesses ready to have a strategy for online tools, they just need some assistance getting started," said Pat Ripley from the Vermont Small Business Development Center, "I'm able to help them tie online tools into their fundamental business goals." Eric Sakai, dean of Academic Technology at the Community College of Vermont reflects on the Internet Interns program, a successful partnership launched with the Vermont Department of Libraries as part of eVermont. “We have seen the enormous mutual benefit of placing trained CCV students in town libraries in their communities, helping patrons of all ages and backgrounds with essential Internet tasks.” Interns built assistance around what sparks individuals’ interest in learning computer skills, things like finding recipes popular or opening e-mail accounts to talk with family. There’s a lot of holiday time activity such as making plans with relatives or learning to use a new technology present. Many people just don't want to feel left behind. Specific topics include how to create public Internet access, teach basic Internet skills,

start using online tools for business, integrate technology into the classroom, encourage civic engagement, begin communitywide online conversations, design beginnerfriendly websites, and build digital archives of local history.

Find the e-Vermont report and community toolkits online at www.e4vt.org. For more information, contact e-Vermont project director Helen Labun Jordan at Helen@vtrural.org or 802-225-6091

Jackson returns as Maple Run’s sponsor By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — Runners from around New England who participate in the Middlebury Maple Run, the Sweetest Half were thrilled upon hearing the news that the annual 13mile-long spring run has retained its most loyal supporter. Members of the organizing committee for the Middlebury Maple Run, the Sweetest Half announced last week that Ingrid Punderson Jackson Real Estate of Addison County will return as the race’s title sponsor. Punderson Jackson is the wife of internationally recognized artist Woody Jackson. “Supporting the race really is a pleasure for us. The Middlebury Maple Run is so awesome and I love that it draws people from all over the region—and the country,” said Punderson Jackson. “Plus, we love that the race is so well run.” The Maple Run’s organizing committee also let it be known that, in addition to Ingrid Punderson Jackson Real Estate, it is looking for additional sponsorships. Funds generated by the 2012 Middlebury Maple Run were donated to a number of local charities—$6,500 was distributed among the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as well as Addison County HOPE, Homeward Bound Animal Welfare Center, Helen Porter Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, Girls on the Run, the Middlebury Police Department, and the Middlebury Volunteer Ambulance Association. According to Punderson Jackson, the 2013 run will be held Sunday, May 5. The Maple Run, she noted, is one of New England’s “mustdo” races. And based on the Run’s growing popularity, an estimated 800 to 1,000 runners will take part in the upcoming athletic event. Publicity from the Maple Run committee noted that local lodging properties, restaurants and merchants reap benefits from the Maple Run. “Approximately 40 percent of the runners have been from out of state—the majority from neighboring New England states and New York,” according to a recent news release. The Addison County Chamber of Commerce is a big cheerleader the Middlebury Maple Run; it injects at least $100,000 into the local economy during the days leading up to, and during, the event. Members of the organizing committee for the Middlebury Maple Run, the Sweetest Half, announced that Ingrid Punderson Jackson Real Estate will be returning as the race’s title sponsor.

Lt. governor kicks off ‘State House Challenge’

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — Lt. Gov. Phil Scott (R) presented the Vermont Disaster Relief Fund with a $1,000 personal donation today as part of the Relief Fund’s “State House Challenge” kickoff event. The “State House Challenge” is part of a campaign to remind Vermonters that many of our neighbors are still suffering from the impact of Tropical Storm Irene. Approximately 500 Vermont families continue to live in damaged homes that present a health and safety risk. The VDRF estimates that it needs to raise an additional $3 million to fully

meet the need, Scott said. The idea behind the “State House Challenge” is to give state leaders an opportunity to lead the way in this renewed fundraising push. The campaign challenges legislators, statewide elected officials, lobbyists and the political press corps – all of the “State House stakeholders” -- to contribute to relief efforts and give more visibility to the ongoing need. Scott’s $1,000 donation is one he pledged to the Fund this past October, to coincide with a 10-day statewide bicycle tour that was part campaign event, part “staycation.” Scott felt it appropriate not to accept his official

salary for that time that he was away from his office, and decided to put those foregone funds toward Vermont’s Irene victims. “My bike tour gave me an opportunity to see the state up-close, and at a slower pace than you can from a car,” Scott said. “One of the big impressions I had from that tour was the number of homes still dislodged from their foundations, the amount of debris still in rivers, and so forth, a year after Irene. I felt a strong need to contribute to this ongoing effort to make sure every Vermonter is restored to preIrene security.” Scott also noted that Vermonters can continue to purchase “Vermont Strong” license plates from the Lieutenant Governor ’s Office.

Middlebury and Other Addison County Locations.

MIDDLEBURY — The Christmas holiday season will be especially busy for opera lovers this year, as three Metropolitan Opera productions will be broadcast at Middlebury’s Town Hall Theater in December. Elina Garanča, who wowed local audiences last year as the sexy, impetuous Carmen, returns to the screen this year in a very different role, the male character Sesto in Mozart’s “La Clemenza di Tito”. The pants role is at the heart of Mozart’s tale romance, treachery and forgiveness in ancient Rome. “La Clemenza di Tito” is one of Mozart’s final masterpieces, seen here in an acclaimed production staged by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle. Verdi’s “Un Ballo in Maschera” (“The Masked Ball”) is considered by many to have one of his best, most thrilling scores. Marcelo Álvarez stars as the conflicted King Gustavo, Sondra Radvanosky is Amelia, the woman he loves, and Met favorite Dimitri Hvorostovsky is Amelia’s suspicious husband.

from page 1 Community Foundation, and the president of People’s United Bank in Vermont. “Quality housing is something all Vermonters need in order to raise their families. Through this Habitat for Humanity project, four new families are able to achieve this goal.” While $5,000 may not sound like a lot of money when it comes to building an upscale solar-powered house along the lake, it means a lot to local Habitat volunteers who focus on modest, affordable housing. Take a look: you can see their handiwork all around Addison County. They’re the unsung heroes who are making a difference in our community. For them, $5,000 under the Christmas tree is the best gift ever.

Surviving are a son, Robert J. Naylor, II of Sudbury, and a daughter Leslie Naylor Kelly of Brandon. He was predeceased by his wife, Alta Wheatley Naylor in 2001. The Rev. Albert Baltz, chaplain of the Vermont Army National Guard, will officiate at a private ceremony for family and friends.

Castleton Crackers merges with Woodstock cheese maker By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com CASTLETON — One of Rutland County’s most successful cottage businesses is in the midst of change. Castleton Crackers, owned by Whitney Lamy, is merging with Vermont Farmstead Cheese Co. of South Woodstock. Lamy made news of the business merger official at the new Vermont Food Center on West Street in Rutland Dec. 8. In 2011, Vermont Farmstead Cheese closed on financing $2.5 million of Series A Preferred Stock. Proceeds from the stock financing helped improve and expand its South Woodstock operations. Vermont Farmstead Cheese products are sold in over 160 stores in six states. The firm has earned over a dozen awards in various national cheese competitions. “As an artist and baker, I am fascinated by the origins of many of the foods we eat today which led me to look ‘outside the box’,” Lamy has said about her popular crackers. “In the early 1800s Josiah Bent from Massachusetts decided

“As an artist and baker, I am fascinated by the origins of many of the foods we eat today.” Whitney Lamy, Castleton Crackers to make a lighter and thinner version of Hardtack, a soldiers and seafarers staple. Bent rolled out sheets of dough, baked and hand ‘cracked’ them. I have been rolling out crackers this original way in my Castleton, Vt.,kitchen for family and friends for years.” Lamy graduated from the University of Massachusetts in 1980 and started her career as a newspaper graphic designer. “From there, I went to running a historic, federal-period mansion that was also a rental facility in Salem, Mass., for eight years. My role there was function director. I did every-

thing from designing brochures to working with caterers,” she told the UMass Amherst alumni publication in 2010. “In 1992, my husband Philip, who is also a graduate of UMass Amherst, was offered a professorship at Castleton State College, so we moved to Vermont.” Lamy has always used all-natural ingredients in her crackers. “We mix, roll, bake them and then crack them by hand creating beautiful rustic looking crackers,” she says on her website. There are no plans to change ingredients or baking procedures. The crackers have no trans fats, artificial content, or preservatives. Castleton Crackers have been receiving serious praise in recent years. Food critic Florence Fabricant of the New York Times recently sampled Lamy’s crackers and approved. “The folks in Castleton have nailed the texture perfectly: sturdy enough for spreading and dipping, but flaky enough for nibbling like potato chips,” Fabricant said.
