SALISBURY | On April 11, at approximately 12:50 p.m. the Vermont State Police responded to a two car, motor vehicle crash, on US Route 7 in Ferrisburgh. An initial police investigation indicates that John Prushko, 63, of Middlebury, was traveling south at in a 2002 Volkswagen Jetta an unknown speed when he traveled left of center. Prushko continued into the northbound lane and struck the rear axles of trucker Alfred Williams’s tractor-trailer rig causing it to overturn. Williams subsequently came to a position of rest, partially off the road, in the culvert adjacent to the northbound lane of travel. Williams, 24, attempted to avoid the motor vehicle crash but was unable to do so. Prushko was taken by ambulance to the University of Vermont Medical Center for treatment of his injuries. Route 7 was closed for several hours as a result of the motor vehicle crash. Prushko was reported to be in stable condition. By 5 p.m., Route 7 was open to one lane of travel but traffic delays continued in the area until after 9 p.m. The lights of emergency vehicles on the highway were visible to several passengers aboard American

LUCKY | 4-year-old neutered male Pit Bull.

If you have a toy, a tennis ball – you name it – I’ll be your best friend. I think toys are the best and I’m not picky, but I do have to admit that I really do enjoy tennis balls. I will happily catch one in mid air and then sit so you can toss another one for me. Those plush squeaky toys are lots of fun, too. I’m super smart and I already know Sit, Shake, High Five and Drop and boy do I like treats so I think you can teach me more commands and maybe even some tricks. After I am tired from walks, hikes and play time I will curl up at your feet for a well deserved nap. I’m a handsome fella with adorable white markings on my nose that make me pretty cute.

I’m an outgoing fella who loves playing in the snow. It’s such fun and I do need lots of exercise and play time so romping in the snow is good way for me to start. Walks, hikes and play time will be great, too. I’m a great size for going on family outings and adventures so I hope they take me along. I like lots of different kinds of toys and I’ll even fetch with myself (I’m pretty talented, right?). I’m also as

I’m an adorable gal with striking colors which set me apart and make me unique. I love timothy hay, green leafy vegetables and fruit, too. Oh, and I do like my treats. I’m not used to being held a lot and I am timid and skittish so please know that about me. If you’ve never had a guinea pig as a pet please do some research before you think about adopting. I came to RCHS with my friend Spring but we do not need to go home together. My hair goes in lots of different directions so sometimes it looks like I’m having a bad hair day but it’s not really.

Maybe she’s born with it? Maybe it’s Maybelline. Maybelline is a gorgeous red and white pup who was definitely born with it; she got her looks from genetics, not cosmetics. Maybelline is an energetic, affectionate young dog who wants nothing more than to be her person’s shadow. Maybelline loves to ride in cars and enjoys playing with her human. Maybelline is very smart and learns tricks and commands incredibly quickly. She would like a home where she will have many appropriate outlets for her energy and would love to have a guardian who works from home or could take her to work with them. In order to make the perfect match for Maybelline, we require that she be adopted into a home without cats and with an experienced dog owner.

Since I was a stray I have no known history with dogs, cats or children but I do think children might be too much for me.

New group in BLSG Insect District EAGLE EDITOR

SALISBURY | A new group of residents has formed to address the serious concerns of disease-carrying insects in their region. Moosalamoo Woods & Waters is the newly formed group in the Mt. Moosalamoo massif area spanning Addison and Rutland counties. Members include residents of the towns in the BLSG Insect Control District, which consists of Brandon, Leicester, Salisbury, Goshen, and now Pittsford. According to recent news statement re-

leased by the group, the first campaign is focused on mosquitoes, along-time scourge in the Moosalamoo area. “BLSG is the only insect control district in Vermont permitted to spray pesticides along town roads to kill adult mosquitoes,” according to the group’s news statement. “Following Pittsford’s recent Town Meeting Day vote to join the BLSG district, the new group wants to make sure Pittsford residents and all citizens within the BLSG district know how to opt out of pesticide spraying if they are concerned about the health or environmental risks.” According to MW&W’s Chris Fastie, “The BLSG Insect Control District allows prop-

erty owners to request that no spraying occur on roads adjacent to their property. Property owners can opt out of spraying by mailing a letter with a copy of the property’s tax map.” Fastie noted that Moosalamoo Woods & Waters also hosts an informational website with an area map showing the district at mwwvt.org/tax-maps. Fastie noted that letters requesting that pesticides not be sprayed on a property must be mailed, along with the map showing the location of concern, to the BLSG Insect Control District, P.O. Box 188, Brandon, VT 05733, by early April. For other details, contact Fastie at mwwvt.org@gmail.com or 352-9028. ■

» Sawyer Cont. from pg. 1 The teen stood accused of planning a shooting at Fair Haven Union High School (FHUHS). The court ruling stated that there simply was not enough evidence to hold Sawyer in jail without bail. The panel of judges ruled that, “the sole question before this court is whether the evidence of guilt is great that defendant attempted to commit any of the four charged crimes given the definition of ‘attempt’ under Vermont law. We hold that the weight of the evidence is not great that (the) defendant has committed any act or combination of acts that would satisfy Vermont’s definition of an attempt to commit any of the charged crimes. We reverse the trial court’s holdwithout-bail order and remand for further proceedings.” The court panel ruled that each of the four counts that Sawyer was charged with was linked to his alleged attempt to commit a mass shooting at FHUHS. “The first count alleges that defendant attempted to cause bodily injury to another with a deadly weapon in violation of 13 V.S.A. §§ 9 and 1024(a)(2),” the court stated. “The second count alleges that defendant attempted to commit first-degree murder in violation of 13 V.S.A. §§ 9 and 2301. The third and fourth counts allege that defendant attempted to commit aggravated murder in violation of 13 V.S.A. §§ 9, 2311(a)(3), and 2311(a)(7). The attempted aggravated

attempted first-degree murder count carries the potential for life without parole.” The judges also said that under Vermont law, the state’s legal team did not present sufficient evidence to conclude that the “evidence of guilt is great” enough so that Sawyer would be “presumed incarcerated” rather than released prior to trial. “In closing,” the trio of judges declared, “we note that the judiciary’s role is confined to the interpretation and application of the law as it currently stands. Beginning with Hurley over a century ago, this court has consistently held that preparation alone does not satisfy the high bar required to prove an attempt. The legislature is tasked with enacting such laws as the people of Vermont think necessary. This court is bound to apply the law in agreement with statute and this court’s own earlier decisions. The legislature can, if it chooses, deviate from this long-established standard by passing a law revising the definition of attempt.” ■

From the editor

Mud season, ready or not Last week, the Green Mountain Club (GMC) announced the “official” return of mud season to the Green Mountains. Maybe where you live, it still looks more like winter than spring, but there’s a logical method to the GMC’s reasoning. According to the club’s annual mud season news statement, “the wet soils on and around hiking trails are very susceptible to erosion at this critical time of year. To protect fragile soil and surrounding vegetation, some trails may be closed by the land manager during this time.” That’s why hikers walking on saturated soils

or on the sides of trails are asked to beware: they can cause damage to surrounding vegetation and negatively impact the natural drainage of trails. “It can take hours for a volunteer or trail crew to fix what takes just moments to damage by hiking on muddy trails,” Jessica Savage, FPR’s recreation program manager, told the Eagle. “In between spring showers, we are all ready to hit the trails after a long, cold winter. But even as your yard is drying out, soils are still thawing at higher elevations. Saving your mountain hikes until the trails are dry will ensure a better, longer hiking season for all.”

Guest viewpoint

“Dry trails at lower elevations, dirt roads, and recreation paths all provide excellent opportunities for spring activities,” said Mike DeBonis, the club’s executive director. “Until the end of May, consider hiking on south-facing slopes and lower elevations where the sun can dry out the trails sooner.“ So take heed of the GMC’s warnings: The period of snow melt and muddy trails varies considerably depending on elevation, solar orientation, snowpack, and spring rainfall. If a trail is muddy, be kind and find an alternative area for hiking. — The Eagle ■

HOPES FOR LAKE CHAMPLAIN POWER LINE, CLEANUP MONEY STILL ALIVE –

The New England Clean Power Link power line project that could deliver more than $200 million to Vermont to clean up Lake Champlain is still alive, supporters say.The fully permitted project would deliver more than 1,000 megawatts of low-carbon Hydro Quebec electricity to southern New England via an underwater cable. The Link appeared dead after the State of Massachusetts backed a rival project in New Hampshire. When that project was rejected by Granite State regulators, Massachusetts supported a Maine alternative. But the Maine project lacks regulatory approval and is opposed by leading environmentalists and energy companies. “They don’t have their permits, and we do,” Gov. Scott said. “They’ll come back to us.”

HOUSE APPROVES PAYING STATE DEFENSE LAWYERS TO HELP IMMIGRANTS –

The state that limited its cooperation with federal immigration police last year is poised this year to pay state defense lawyers to help immigrants in federal court. S.237, permitting (taxpayer funded) state-employed public defender lawyers to provide legal counsel to immigrants, received preliminary approval by the Vermont House 97-40 on April 10 and will soon go to Gov. Scott for his signature. S.237 “requires that needy persons be provided with representation concerning immigration matters,” said its statement of purpose. Rep. Lynn Batchelor (Derby) explained her “no” vote: “The problem is not if someone is legal or illegal. It is the state’s lack of money to support this bill at this time.” Rep. Kathleen Keenan (St. Albans City) also voted no: “Having heard appropriations’ testimony about the financial difficulties the defender general has providing needed statutory services I am very hesitant to add additional work, nor do I expect state employees to work without pay or expense reimbursement. Leaving children in unsafe homes as we do now due to inadequate resources does not justify adding new additional workload at this time.” An amendment was expected to be offered April 12. H.758, prohibiting housing discrimination based on immigration status, was introduced Jan. 30 but did not

survive Crossover. A statement by Gov. Scott limits Vermont‘s cooperation with the federal government regarding immigration law enforcement. A March 2017 state law limits the role of local police in federal immigration enforcement.

PROSTITUTION BILL DEAD IN HOUSE JUDICIARY –

H.733, an anti-prostitution bill requested by Rutland City police and all Rutland City legislators, has not been discussed in House Judiciary since it was introduced Jan. 30. H.733 “proposes to expand the definition of prostitution to include a broader range of sexual conduct.” At present the only sex act covered under state prostitution law is intercourse. H.733 defines several other sex acts-for-hire as prostitution. The bill was reportedly requested by Rutland city police as a way to crack down on suspected houses of prostitution. None of the House Judiciary members interviewed this week by Headliners were aware of H.733, much less knew why it hasn’t been discussed. So it’s impossible to know if sex trade support by advocacy organizations like the Women’s March play a role. On April 7, the Women’s March tweeted in response to the federal shutdown of the Backpage.com website: “The shutting down of #Backpage is an absolute crisis for sex workers who rely on the site to safely get in touch with clients. Sex workers rights are women’s rights.”

– the lead advocates for carbon tax and carbon pricing – last week sent legislators a letter saying not a peep about carbon tax/pricing but urging support of “the decarbonization study funded in H.924 (the budget).” Bill would study “good time” for inmates, require marijuana dispensary criminal background checks “only every three years” – House Judiciary this week will discuss S.222, updating miscellaneous judiciary procedures, including: A study and report to reinstitute the practice of “earned good time” for inmates in the Corrections Department. Medical Marijuana dispensary owners, principals and financiers “shall be required only every three years” to have fingerprints taken, their out-of-state criminal history record reported, and criminal history investigated by the FBI.

STUDY VIDEO GAME/SCHOOL VIOLENCE CONNECTION –

HR 23, a resolution to study the connection between excessively violent video games and school shooting, is set to be introduced into the House. “This legislative body requests the Executive Branch to use available funds to examine the connection between excessive video game playing and the propensity to engage in gun violence and to propose restrictions on the rental or sale of violent video games to persons under a designated age for legislative consideration during the 2019 session of the General Assembly,” says the proposed resolution. The lead sponsor is Doug Gage (Rutland City), who is joined by more than 100 co-sponsors from all three parties and the independent caucus. ■

CARBON TAX NOW CALLED “MARKET DECARBONIZATION” –

A Northeast Kingdom legislator on House Appropriations committee reportedly protested vehemently at a recent community gathering when a citizen asked why the proposed 2019 budget funds a study of carbon taxation. The legislator stood and loudly proclaimed that there is no funding to study a carbon tax. Perhaps the confusion is understandable. House Appropriations – pressured by the Scott administration and many voters to not fund a carbon pricing study – has changed the name of the unpopular study to “market decarbonization.” See page 111 of H.924: “Study regulatory and market decarbonization mechanisms: The Joint Fiscal Committee shall contract for independent professional assistance to analyze the costs and benefits for Vermont of adopting and implementing policies to reduce GHG emissions caused by Vermont’s consumption of fossil fuels. There is $120,000 appropriated … for this study.” Lest anyone miss the name switcheroo, Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility

Students sweating out math competition By Gail Bergman

SPECI A L TO THE EAGLE

MIDDLEBURY | A combination of math smarts and creative thinking has added up to a top spot in a major national math competition for five Middlebury Union High School seniors. The students – Ezra Marks, Laura Whitley, Julian Schmitt, Bastiaan Phair and Janet Barkdoll of MUHS – have advanced to the finals in the popular MathWorks Math Modeling (M3) Challenge, the only competition of its kind which this year drew more than 4,175 11th and 12th grade participants from across the nation. The Middlebury team will head to New York City on April 30 to compete against five other finalist teams at Jane Street, a quantitative trading firm. Using mathematical modeling, the students had 14 hours in late February to come up with a solution to a real-world issue – food insecurity in the United States. The Challenge problem posited that food wasted in households, cafeterias, restaurants, and grocery stores is not “trash,” but might be thoughtfully repurposed. Teams were ultimately asked for model-based strat-

egies to quantify, reduce and repurpose the most food for the least cost. More than 900 participating teams from across the U.S. submitted papers detailing their recommended solutions. “Food insecurity affected 12.3 percent of U.S. households in 2016, roughly 42 million Americans. These households had difficulty putting enough food on the table,” said Alisha Coleman-Jensen, Ph.D., Economic Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. “Food insecurity is related to poor health among adults and children, and poorer educational achievement among children. It has real impacts on families and individuals.” Organized by Philadelphia-based Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) and sponsored by MathWorks, M3 Challenge – now in its 12th year – spotlights applied mathematics as a powerful problem-solving tool and motivates students to consider further education and careers in math and science. Approximately 37 scholarship prizes totaling $100,000 are up for grabs, with the champion team receiving $20,000. In addition to MUHS, the five other finalist teams hail from high schools in Lincolnshire, Illinois; Los Altos, California; Osprey,

Florida; Lincroft, New Jersey; and Waxhaw, North Carolina. “I am really impressed with these students’ work and with how beautifully they function as a group,” said Perry Lessing, mathematics teacher at MUHS, who coached the school’s students in preparation for the 14-hour challenge. “They did all the preparation for the Challenge on their own and I did not see them at all on the day they spent on the paper. I remember noticing the clock at 11 pm that night and wondering if they’d gotten their paper in. I know their friendships have deepened and that they have learned tons about making a group play to each of their individual strengths. I’m excited to be bringing them to New York and I’m super-curious to hear what they have to say. This is a great opportunity all around.” Team member Ezra Marks appreciates the real-world applications of math that M3 Challenge provides. “It was exciting to see how classroom mathematics could be applied to suggest solutions to the problem of food waste in our community and the United States,” he said. “Our team worked well together, both collaboratively and individually, brainstorming as a group, splitting off into individuals and pairs, then reading and editing each other’s work. M3 Challenge will be happy to know we ate all the food we brought with us, leaving no waste on the day of the Challenge. Participating in the Challenge has given us a greater appreciation for the connection between computations and real-world applications of math.” ■

A trip down Armory Lane

MIDDLEBURY | The Middlebury Selectboard approved 911 Coordinator Beth Dow’s request to rename the private road Armory Lane, in the Residences at Otter Creek complex, to Amory Lane. In a memo to the Board explaining the reason for the request, Dow noted that, while the road had been officially designated Armory Lane in 2006, over the years, through clerical errors and changes in management at the Residences, the name had morphed into Amory Lane on street signs and Google Maps. A representative at Vermont 911, advised of the discrepancy, had recommended the simplest solution would be for the Selectboard to change the road’s official name. ■

Gloria Grace Rader

MIDDLEBURY | Gloria Grace Rader, 92, died peacefully April 1, 2018, at her home at The Residence in Middlebury. She was surrounded by family and friends. Born July 25th in College Point, New York, she was the daughter of the late Frances Henrietta Renart and Thomas Louis Garrett. At age 17, she married her life-long love, the late William A. Rader. In 1952, they moved to Shoreham where they built their home. They celebrated 65 beautiful years together before his death. Together, they owned and operated a much-loved family camp resort, ‘Hand’s Cove Cottages’ for many years. They also owned and operated the Three Minute Ferry in Orwell and Fort Ti Ferry in Shoreham. In ‘retirement’, they launched another business, an apple orchard. Local workers and grandchildren who worked in the orchard would be called to ‘luncheon’ by the Ti Papermill horn and all would gather to enjoy lemonade and sandwiches together. Later in life while living at The Residence at Otter Creek, she made new friends among the staff, many of whom she considered family. Gloria enjoyed socializing and sunshine and doted on her pets. She is survived by her children and large extended family of spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren: son William and his wife Rhoda of Shoreham; son Glenn and his wife Katherine of Bow, NH; and daughter Marylou and her husband Richard of East Dover. She leaves eight grandchildren, two step grandchildren, and 17 great-grandchildren. She lived a long and blessed life. She will be missed by many. There will be a private family service to celebrate her life. Memorial contributions may be made to Addison County Home Healthcare and Hospice, 254 Ethan Allen Hwy, New Haven, 05472. Arrangements were under the direction of Sanderson Funeral Home, 117 S. Main St., Middlebury. ■

Scott signs gun-related bills last week By Lou Varricchio EAGLE EDITOR

MONTPELIER | Gov. Phil Scott signed three gun-control bills into law at the Vermont State House on April 11. The first bill signed by Scott was S.221 which authorizes the state to petition the court for an extreme risk protection order to remove a person’s access to weapons, including guns, if he or she poses an imminent danger to self or others. This is a lifesaving tool that can prevent gun tragedies, such as suicides or murders, before they occur.

The second bill signed by the governor was H.422 which gives more power to law enforcement to remove firearms from the scene of a domestic violence crime, with due process. More than half of all domestic violence related fatalities in Vermont are committed with a firearm. This law will better protect domestic violence victims and their children. The third bill signed into law was S.55 which includes gun safety provisions relating to universal background checks; age of purchase and safety training; bump stocks; and magazine capacity. Scott was joined by members of his administra-

tion, legislators and victims’ rights and domestic violence advocates as he signed the three bills. “As I processed this information, I was shocked. Just 24 hours before – even in the aftermath of Parkland (Florida) – I thought, as the safest state in the nation, Vermont was immune to this type of violence,” Scott said. ”As I’ve said many times throughout my political life, public safety is the top priority of government – a responsibility I take seriously as governor. Sitting there, I realized, only by the grace of God did we avert a horrific outcome. Had this potential shooter followed through, overnight, we

would’ve gone from one of the safest states in the country, to among the deadliest.” Scott seemed to be honestly shaken by the Fair Haven incident. “The reality of how close we came to a tragedy like Florida forced me to do some soul searching,” he added.” I’ve hunted and fished my entire life. I’ve got a safe full of guns, including the one I got when I was 13... I believed, since we were such a small, tightknit state, that we were different and somewhat insulated from the violence the rest of the world was seeing. But I was wrong. And that’s not always easy to admit.” ■

Rutland County ranch has broncos and rodeos By Lou Varricchio EAGLE EDITOR

CASTLETON | Dating back to the early 1900s, Pond Hill Ranch in Castleton was founded by the O’Rourke family and began as a draft horse and cattle operation. Nearly a century later, the ranch remains an O’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. The O’Rourke’s ranch is about as close to open range as it ever gets up here in “Vermontana”. While the Green Mountain State may be as far east of the Mississippi as you can get, the fact is that horses and cattle—even

cowboys and sheepmen—have always been a part of Vermont’s northern-frontier heritage. Harry O’Rourke, Jr., and his wife Josephine expanded the original family ranch during the 1930s; they added horses and more acreage to the spread. Beginning in the early 2000s, five O’Rourke siblings— Debbie, Dick, Judy, Harry and Colleen and families—were managing the ranch. “We primarily buy and sell horses,” Harry O’Rourke first told the Eagle back in 2012, “so we buy and sell animals and also lease horses to camps, resorts, etc. We do a lot of traveling for the ranch.” Currently, over 800 Pond Hill horses are scattered across the region providing pleasure riding for tourists and other enthusi-

asts in New England and New York. “New England has an English riding tradition,” according to O’Rourke, “But our tradition here is Western although we offer both styles of horseback riding.” At the Castleton ranch, visitors can go on an exciting trail ride, view an operating ranch close up, or simply shop at the ranch tack shop for a new Stetson or a pair of boots. In addition to providing Vermont’s best trail ride—through open meadows, woods, and across a Taconic mountain ridge—Pond Hill Ranch boasts Vermont’s only professional rodeo, part of the American Professional Rodeo Association and National Rodeo Association. The ranch’s rodeo show had its start at Lake Bomoseen back in the 1960s, but was subsequently moved onto the ranch to better accommodate growing audiences. Eight rodeo events, held each Saturday at 8 p.m., are offered between July 4 and Labor Day. While the rodeo season is short up here,

roping, riding, steer wrestling, bull riding, and much more, are offered to eager audiences. If you’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 it’s guaranteed fun for the whole family. So, saddle up and head southwest—to Pond Hill Ranch. Hours and directions: 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 Road. For details or the arrange a trail ride, call the ranch at 468-2449 or 468-0578. ■ Editor’s note: This 2012 Eagle story was reprinted at the request one of our seasonal readers.

A cosmetologist and juried jewelry artist, she worked with Joyce Roberts, a parishioner and thrift store manager, to select and prepare the clothing and accessories from the thrift store for the fashion show. “The items in the store have been loved; why not love them again?” Doran commented during the show. All fashion ensembles modeled in the show were for sale on racks after the show. There were eight “scenes” in the show that featured fashion ensembles that went with the theme: nature, gardening, denim, patriotic, beach, sports, formal and hats. a “great” community builder, Roberts said of the parish’s first fashion show. “It has drawn people in and shown we are reaching out to bring something to Fair Haven.” Rev. Pittappillil agreed. “This is an outreach to other people. … Nourished by the Word of God, we are an extension of Christ’s charity.” Parishioner Rosie Doran called the fashion show “fabulous” and added, “The spirit that has been generated has brought such a sense of community to our little parish, and the clothes are great.” Our Lady of Seven Dolors Thrift Store is open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. ■

She and her husband, Paul, a retired airline pilot now on a different kind of runway, were among 20 models in “Thrifty Fashions,” a fashion show presented April 10 by Our Lady of Seven Dolors Thrift Store. The event drew more than 100 people to the former St. Mary School, across the street from the church. “I knew this was going to be fun and good publicity for the thrift store,” Monnie Patten said. The thrift store “is a ministry” and volunteers “come joyfully,” said Rev. Antony Pittappillil, pastor. “They come with a passion for serving and making our parish known to other people.” He sat in the front row for much of the fashion show, applauding and laughing heartily at some of the antics of the models. He also stood to videotape the show. “I’m impressed,” he said of the organization of the event, the participation and the willingness of people to volunteer. “I figured I’d put my jitters aside” and be one of the models, said parishioner Peter MacDonald who had never modeled before. “It’s a little outside my comfort zone, but I decided to go for it.” He didn’t look a bit uncomfortable on stage as he hammed it up for the audience. Models ranged in age from one year to about 80 years. Parishioner Bonnie Doran was the producer of the fashion show and described for the au-

Make believe sports arena is for real By Kathy Aicher

SPECI A L TO THE EAGLE

RUTLAND | Rutland-based College of St. Joseph, the first college in New England to offer a varsity level eSports program, now has a brand-new state-of-the-art eSports arena. The arena is located on the first floor of St. Joseph’s Hall, and is equipped with 5 gaming computers loaded with top titles, LED lighting, webcasting and a giant viewing screen for both spectators and team strategy revision. Each gaming station is outfitted with a mechanical keyboard, headset, gaming chair and 24” screen. Chris Towle is eSports director and team head coach, and has been instrumental in the development of the program and its new venue. Launched in the fall of 2017, the eSports program is part of the college’s athletic department and, says Coach Towle, is held to the same high standards as CSJ’s other athletic programs. “Our digital athletes have access to good coaching and a training facility, just like any sport at the college,” said Towle. “Our goal

with this new program is to reach the next generation of student who is competitive, smart and tech-savvy.” Towle noted that participation in eSports teaches critical life skills such as team building, communication and multi-tasking, in addition to strengthening game knowledge and reaction speed. “It enhances the campus culture, and gives students the chance to improve their personal performance both in and out of the classroom. It’s really an innovative pathway for students to flourish academically, socially and professionally.” CSJ joins more than 70 colleges across the country with varsity eSports teams recognized by the National Association of Collegiate eSports (NACE). The CSJ team, the Archangels, practices three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30p.m., and spectators are welcome. The team is currently organizing scrimmages with other collegiate teams, and some CSJ players have been competing in locally-run online tournaments. ■

Rutland Olympian to be immortalized in stone From Staff & News Reports THE V ERMONT EAGLE

RUTLAND |Andrea Mead Lawrence, a Rutland native and America’s only Olympic skier to win two gold medals in the same year, will be the subject of the fifth sculpture in a series highlighting local and regional history. The sculpture, part of a series planned by the Carving Studio and Sculpture Center, MKF Properties, Vermont Quarries, and Green Mountain Power’s Rutland Blooms, will be underwritten by Casella Waste Systems and will highlight Lawrence’s Olympic record and long environmental career. “Andrea has been an inspiration to generations of Rutland County skiers, and environmentalists across the country,” Casella chairman and CEO John Casella said. “She began her Olympic career at the age of 15, won two gold medals at the 1952 Olympics at the age of 19, and became a leading environmentalist after her skiing career was over. “She brought the same focus and passion to her environmental work as she brought to skiing,” Casella said. Lawrence is widely considered one of America’s best winter athletes. Sports Illustrated ranks her as Vermont’s no. 1 athlete of all time, and according to her 2009 obituary in the New York Times, Olympic documentar-

ian Bud Greenspan deemed her “the greatest Winter Olympian of all time.” The Times reported that accolade was based on her skiing and subsequent environmental career. “She was the epitome of success,” Green Mountain Power Vice President Steve Costello said. “She learned to ski at Pico Peak, which her parents owned, and within five years of her first official race, she was in her first Olympics at the age of 15. Four years later, she was a double-gold winner, a feat no American skier has matched since, but her greatest legacy is what she did after retiring from racing.” Mead Lawrence became an environmental activist in the West, working for decades to preserve important environmental assets, and in 2003, she founded the Andrea Lawrence Institute for Mountains and Rivers, a nonprofit group focused on preserving the Sierra Nevada range. In 2011, two years after her death, Congress passed and President Obama signed the Mount Andrea Lawrence Designation Act, renaming a 12,240 elevation peak along the John Muir Trail, Mount Andrea Lawrence. Steve Shaheen, a Brooklyn-based sculptor who will be leading a team to create the monument, says he is inspired by Lawrence’s quote following her gold-medal runs in 1952, which will also be inscribed on the marble: “There are few times in our lives where we become the thing we are doing.” “I see an exact correlation between ath-

letics and artistry,” saidShaheen, “when you hit that Zen moment where everything else disappears, and the line between creator and creation becomes indistinguishable.” CSSC Executive Director Carol Driscoll said the series had already exceeded her initial hopes, with expectations for five sculptures to be complete and installed by fall. “When we started this effort barely a year ago, I really hoped we could complete one piece each year,” Driscoll said. “The way the business community has rallied around the effort has been inspiring, and we’re so thankful for the support of John Casella and Vermont Quarries on this project. We couldn’t do this without profound community support.” Quentin Andrea Lawrence, Andrea Mead Lawrence’s daughter, said the sculpture was an honor her mother would be proud of. “She often called herself ‘A good Vermont Yankee,’ remaining devoted to Rutland and the Green Mountains of her childhood,” she said. “Although she fell in love with the open spaces of the American West, she always attributed her passion for environmental justice to the joys of growing up playing on Pico Peak, as well as the streams and forests of her childhood home. We as a family are very happy to see that she will be remembered in this honorable tribute and hope that her memory will inspire many generations to come.” The series also includes a planned sculp-

The Ann Story, 54th Regiment and Lawrence sculptures will be carved this summer and early fall. ■

Boards tell downtown story By Lou Varricchio EAGLE EDITOR

MIDDLEBURY | According to a recent Middlebury Bridge and Rail Project Update report, Jim Gish, community liaison for Middlebury’s “big dig” project, two large storyboards are were erected last week just outside the Middlebury Post Office facing Main Street. According to Gish’s report, “...Highway Division Chief Matt Cram and our highway division crew took time off from their usual work maintaining Middlebury’s 87 miles of paved and unpaved roads to install the storyboards in the center of downtown. The two boards are designed to provide locals

and visitors with a visual overview of the Middlebury Bridge and Rail Project and with details of the 2018 construction plan.” Gish noted that Middlebury’s Postmaster Joe Laramie ok’ed the siting of the boards; they are located near where the temporary footbridge connects the sidewalk between the National Bank of Middlebury and the main post office. “One of the most interesting visuals is a photograph of the intersection of Main Street and Merchants Row in the early 1900s drawn from the vast collection of the Henry Sheldon Museum,” Gish reported. He made a special note to thank Joann Langrock for help with historical research. Gish also invited public comments and questions via email at: jgish@townofmiddlebury.org. ■

Two large storyboards near the Middlebury Post Office tell the history of downtown and the new rail and bridges project.
