Waitsfield bank robbed—again

WAITSFIELD Ñ Vermont State Police detectives arrived on the scene of another armed bank robbery in Waitsfield at the Northfield Savings Bank.

At approximately 4:20 p.m. May 4, an armed individual displayed a gun and demanded money at the same bank that suffered a robbery on April 28.

Witnesses described the suspect as a male, scruffy beard, medium build, dark clothes, a winter hat, and tan jacket.

The suspect left the bank on foot and is suspected to have left the area in a tan Toyota Corolla, possibly with another individual.

The car went west on Bragg Hill Road in Waitsfield. It is unknown at this time if the two robberies are related.

Anyone with any information about this incident or having seen the suspect in the area please contact VSP detectives at the Middlesex barracks at 802-229-9191.

Complete START YOUR ENGINES streets law may hike road repair

By Bruce Parker Vermont Watchdog Report RUTLAND CITY — A one-mile road repair estimated at $263,910 could rise as high as $629,561 if lanes are added for cyclists and pedestrians, according to an analysis from the City of Rutland Department of Public Works.

In the Ò complete streetsÓ estimate for Dorr Drive, the standard approach to reclaiming and paving the two-lane, 25-footwide road between River Street and the city line would cost $263,910.

But since the passage of Act 34 in 2011, all municipal road projects must consider use by cyclists and pedestrians. That means Dorr Drive may need to be widened to provide bike lanes on each side of the road.

Man arrested for assault

RUTLAND — On April 26, troopers from the State Police Barracks in Rutland responded to a report of a physical altercation at a residence located on River Road in the Town of Killington.

A VSP investigation found that Charles Ray Dean, Jr., 33, of Hot Springs, N.C., put his hands around the neck of a household member impeding her ability to breathe.

Dean was subsequently arrested for first degree aggravated domestic assault and transported to the State Police Barracks in Rutland for processing.

After processing Dean was lodged at Marble Valley Regional Correctional Facility for lack of $25,000 bail.

MIDDLEBURY — Long-time horse owner Heidi Littlefield of Fairfax said that there’s something about Vermont and horses that is magical. Littlefield, who is a Vermont Eagle newspaper account representative, said that her having to retrain her horse, using natural horsemanship-round pen training techniques, has taught her many lessons about life and herself.

Littlefield’s relationship with her horse “Bud”, a National Show Horse (Arabian x Saddlebred), has so inspired her that she is in the process of writing a nonfiction book about her experiences with the human-horse connection.

While not revealing the title of her lifestory memoir with “Bud”, Littlefield hopes that the book will be published sometime within the next year or two.

So, why the Vermont love affair with horses?

For horse observer Littlefield, the Green Mountain State is inextricably linked to Justin Morgan’s famous breed, the Morgan horse, among the USA’s first horse breeds of note.

Kenneth Maurice: Revealing heaven and earth in stone

By Lou Varricchio

lou@addison-eagle.com

N

ative Vermont sculptor Kenneth Maurice, owner of Vermont Stone Sculpturing, LLC, has a rare talent, a gift of transforming inert stone into magnificent works of art.

From religious statues, outdoor fountains and sculpted figurines to war memorials, family busts and pet memorials, this Vermont master has touched the heart and soul of creative expression in stone.

Beginning at the age of nine, Maurice learned to sculpt stone under the expert guidance of Italian master craftsman Alcita Santoni, among others.

As a youth, Maurice worked cleaning up the dusty work floor at his father Leo Maurice’s Barre-based Maurice Memorials business. There the future artist collected Ò groutÓ , waste rock, to began his unique, lifelong creative and passionate journey with stone. There the future artist learned a rare profession that he carried on after three generations.

By the age of 15, Maurice sold his first stone work; at age 19 he began sculpting for Rock of Ages, Vermont’s worldfamous granite operation.

Like most sculptors working in the classical tradition, Maurice understands exactly what Renaissance master Michelangelo meant when he said, Ò Every block

of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it.Ó Forever grateful to his father for not only introducing him to the world of stone, but also by being the most important mentor in his life, Maurice carries on the family tradition. He has since made name for himself and is a sought after sculptor working on both commercial and private commissions. Now with the assis-

tance of his wife, who manages the sales side of Maurice’s business, Ò I learned both art and the science of anatomy,Ó Maurice says. Ò As an anatomical artist I strive for movement in my work. That’s why I like settings, scenes, as well as portraits.Ó Recent stone work by Maurice demon CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

M

any of us are getting excited about putting in our gardens and planting our flowers but the Rutland County Humane Society would like to remind you of a few things to keep in mind if you have pets. Poisonous Plants: Rhododendron and azaleas for instance are toxic to both dogs and cats.

Mushrooms and other Cycads (the Sago Palm is a popular houseplant in this category) can cause liver failure. Other dangerous plants include lily of the valley, oleander, foxblood and kalanchoe can damage your pet’s heart. Fertilizer: Carefully choose your fertilizer if you have pets and follow instructions carefully about when to let your pet outside unsupervised after spreading it. Cocoa mulch: That wonderful chocolate smell is tempting to dogs but it poses the same health risks chocolate can when consumed.

Insecticides: Always store pesticides carefully and use carefully. Follow the manufacturers’ label and don’t place where your pets can be exposed to or ingest them. Garden Tools: The hazards are obvious but the dirt caked into sharp tools pose a risk for tetanus to you and your pet. If your pet ingests something you think may be toxic, contact your veterinarian. There is a pet poison hotline that can be reached at 888-426-4435. There is a charge for the hotline service. Have a safe spring with your pets.

State Police warn of fentanyl deaths PITTSFORD — Recent news reports of heroinrelated overdoses, some leading to death, are spurring concerns in Vermont communities that fentanyl is present in some of the heroin being soldlocally.

The Vermont State Police confirm that since 2014, there have been a number of fentanyl-related deaths and overdose incidents in various areas of Vermont. Additionally, pure fentanyl has been seized in several investigations of various natures.

According to VSP Capt. J.P. Sinclair, the fatal fentanyl overdose incidents have been in Burlington, St. Johnsbury, Royalton and one is suspected in Williston, with lab results pending. In at least some instances, the fentanyl-laced heroin or pure fentanyl is being sold with various packaging.

Sinclair noted that there has also been concern over a batch of heroin making its way through the New England-area marked “Ronald ReaganÓ.

At this time, there has only been one seizure

of this particular suspected fentanyl-laced heroin product in Vermont. That incident was over a month ago, and the packets recovered were empty, thus making it impossible to test for the presence of fentanyl.

The Vermont State Police recommends that anyone using heroin on a daily basis be extremely careful of the product they buy. The use of a fentanyl-laced batch of heroin, or especially pure fentanyl, can easily lead to overdose and death, due to fentanyl’s powerful effect. The presence of fentanyl in Vermont is gradually becoming more common, along with the dangers associated with its use.

According to the Vermont Department of Health, fentanyl is an opioid drug that is up to 50 times more powerful than heroin, and much deadlier. Even a very small amount of pure fentanyl, just a few grains, can stop your breathing and kill.

Naloxone can reverse the effects of opioid poisoning. Naloxone is effective against heroin and fentanyl, but greater amounts may be needed to reverse a fentanyl poisoning.

The Health Department continues its work to equip citizens with emergency overdose rescue kits containing naloxone as part of its opioid overdose prevention pilot program.

From the Editor

Trade and the standard of living Are we prepared for what lies ahead?

Since 2009, we’ve seen the rapid rise of executive power (and political arrogance) within the U.S. government. The current flap in Washington over TPA, Trade Promotion Authority, is a case in point. It is a thoroughly corrupt and disgusting thing to behold.

While we haven’t heard a peep about TPA coming from Vermont’s delegation, we think it’s a terrible idea that will seriously hurt American industry. We suspect that there might be some behind-the-scenes grumbling, but that our Green Mountain Trio’s loyality to Obama will prevent any meaningful opposition in order to save U.S. workers and jobs.

The Obama administration, making no bones about it, designed TPA to eliminate Congress’ constitutional authority to debate trade deals and amend such legislation.

TPA reinforces Obama’s heavy hand and his lack of transparency. Just witness national constitutional controversies such as Obamacare, illegal immigration, and the Iran “treaty”.

U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R. Alabama) has been one of the few, outspoken critics of the administration’s recent trade manuevers. Sessions is a powerful, informed member of the Senate (he’s the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s immigration subcommittee), so his opinion carries weight. But will Sessions’ voice matter with powerful political forces and business interests in play?

We believe TPA offers a teachable moment a la “Clinton Cash”—that is, we’re actually seeing the rewarding of wealthy foreigners, who have invested in our corrupt political system; they are about to get a rich payback in the form of lopsided trade deals which benefit their workers and national economies.

“Not only will Congress have given up the 67-vote threshold for a (trade) treaty and the 60-vote threshold for important legislation,Ó Sessions said in a commentary appearing in the Daily Editorialist May 5, Ò but it will have even given up the opportunity for amendment and the committee review process that both ensures member participation.Ó There are other, equally serious reasons to be worried about Obama’s TBA. Yet again, our trading partners get a better deal than the American worker. And that’s reason enough to turn TBA inside out and show it for what is, a sham.

Simply put, TBA is terrible for the American worker, both union and non-union worker. And it will mean ever deeper U.S. trade deficits with even more imported products flooding the marketplace.

Right now, Barclays Bank has estimated that the U.S. trade deficit has been a serious factor in slowing economic growth in the first quarter of 2015; it will only get worse under the Obama plan in years to come.

According to Reuters, “Since the NAFTA and South Korea free trade pacts were implemented, U.S. trade deficits, which drag down economic growth, have soared more than 430 percent with America’s free-trade partners… Obama’s 2011 trade deal with South Korea, which serves as the template for the new Trans-Pacific Partnership, has resulted in a 50 percent jump in the U.S. trade deficit with South Korea in its first two years. This equates to 50,000 U.S. jobs lost.”

TBA will also fast track Ò green cardÓ immigration taking yet more jobs away from citizens. Ò In 2011,Ó Session said, Ò the United States entered into an agreement with South KoreaÑ never brought before CongressÑ to increase the duration of L-1 visas, a visa that affords no protections for U.S. workers.Ó Is it fair to ask how many wealthy South Korean businessmen contributed to Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign?

We agree with Senator Sessions when it comes to Obama’s fast-track trade wheeling and dealing with the Asians: “Our job is to raise our own standard of living here in America, not to lower our standard of living to achieve greater parity with the rest of the world.Ó The Eagle

W

e’ve watched the threats continually increase over the years. This nation and others have watched as embers of terrorism surface quickly and then fade into memory, almost as quickly as they appeared.

The concept of living with terrorism is one we’ve had to accept, but are we now on the verge of seeing more isolated attacks from within?

Last week top U.S. officials and lawmakers intensified concerns about the growing threat of jihad-inspired terror Dan Alexander attacks against the United States, after the recent thwarted Thoughts from attempt in Texas and the dire FBI warning that followed.

Behind the Pressline “I think there’s been an uptick in the stream of threats out there,” Texas GOP Rep. Mike McCaul, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, told “Fox News Sunday.” “We’re seeing these directives on almost a daily basis. It’s very concerning. Terrorism has gone viral.”

McCaul’s comments follow the May 3 attack by two gunmen outside a “Draw Muhammad” event in Garland, Texas.

Tweets by one of the two gunmen, killed by police in the attack, appear to link him to radical Islamic terror groups. Internet chatter purportedly tipped off officials about a possible attack on the event organized in such a fashion to nearly ensure some form of violent protest if not exactly what happened.

FBI Director James Comey said the attack highlights the difficulties the FBI faces, as social media serves to facilitate communication between terror groups and potential homegrown extremists sympathetic to the movement.

He also warned that the Islamic State terror group has thousands of English-language followers on Twitter, including many here in our midst in the U.S. The group also is increasingly steering followers into forums that allow for encrypted communications that can be harder for law enforcement officials to access. Ò The siren song sits in the pockets, on the mobile phones, of the people who are ISIS followers on Twitter,” Comey went on to say. “It’s almost as if there’s a devil sitting on the shoulder, saying ‘Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill,’ all day long.”

As time moves on the nation’s law enforcement agencies are in the position of finding a needle in a haystack and from all we’ve come to understand it may only be a matter of time before this reaches a level commensurate with what we’ve been warned, now that the terror threat is one of the highest we’ve seen.

If we do in fact find ourselves in a new environment and the likelihood of these attacks are imminent, what options or steps can be taken to safe guard those dear to us?

Are these potential attacks something to fear or are we just at a point where the likelihood is just one of life’s inconveniences that we accept as everyday life? As odd as that sounds unless we take steps to resolve these issues, we have no other choice but to accept them in our midst; crazy radicals who will pop up from time to time, seeking to destroy innocent life.

General George Marshall said it best after the end of World War II: “The only way human beings can win a war is to prevent it.Ó As a nation we must find new ways to demonstrate leadership and sufficient resolve to keep the lid on an ever growing tumultuous world. We must find solutions to deal with these events should an outbreak find its way onto our soil.

Radical jihadists must be seen as a deadly disease that must be wiped out and the sooner the better.

Why we support the Vergennes school budget Guest Viewpoint

As Directors of Vergennes Union High School, we write to urge the voters of Addison, Ferrisburgh, Panton, Vergennes and Waltham to vote in support of the proposed Fiscal Year 2016 budget. We believe the proposed budget delivers value to our community in the following ways: •In order to prepare our students for careers and college education, the proposed budget reflects a commitment to maintain a robust curriculum and programs typical of a comprehensive high school and progressive middle school. A high quality school system is a critical factor in making the ANWSU communities a desirable place to live and work.

•The proposed budget reaches the right balance between cost and value. Using actual enrollment data and a prudent class size policy, the proposed budget reflects a reduction of 4 full time equivalent staff across various content areas, without reducing the academic programs offered to students.

•To compete in an era of declining student numbers and school choice options, VUHS must be innovative, nimble, and attractive to both students and highly qualified faculty. The proposed budget supports these goals, along with a commitment to improving educational outcomes for all our students.

The proposed budget reflects an accurate forecast of the true cost to operate the programs and facility, and corrects the mismanagement by former administrators that resulted in deficit spending in prior years. Some of that increase in cost is offset by increases in other sources of revenue, such as state aid, resulting in what is called Ò total educational spendingÓ .

The increase in total educational spending for FY ’16 as compared to the current year is projected to be 1.02%. We believe this is a responsible proposal, worthy of support.

For more information about the proposed budget, contact Superintendent JoAn Canning at 877-3332, or contact one of us (see www.vuhs.org/boardinfo).

Please be sure to vote on Tuesday, May 5. Should you need one, an absentee ballot can be obtained from your town clerk.

Thank you for your support.

Fish are biting in Addison, Rutland counties FERRISBURGH — There’s lots of good fishing in Addison County and many anglers are awake early to travel to their favorite access points along lakes, ponds and streams.

For angler Brian Balch of Waltham, fishing is both recreation and a form of natural meditation. The Eagle caught up with Balch along the South Slang, a wide branch of wetlands coming off Lake Champlain, early in the morning last week. The narrow causeway, across a marshy expanse, is located near where the Little Otter Creek empties into the lake. Ò I grew up in Underhill,Ó said the native Vermonter. “I’ve been fishing for many years. I like coming out here. It’s a beautiful day, a little breezy, with lots of ducks, geese and other waterfowl.Ó Balch enjoys catch-and-release fishing and apparently doesn’t need to bring home a trophy of his prowess. Ò Today I am using a spinner,Ó he said, describing the type of lure he likes to employ to attract fish. “This is a good spot for bass and pike.Ó This year in Vermont, bass catch and release season began April 11 and continues until June 12. Trout and salmon season, also started April 11 but continues through the summer and part of the autumn until Oct. 31. The 2015-16 Walleye season, which started May 2, continues on until March 15, 2016 (except for the Chittenden Reservoir and the Connecticut River). Then there’s largemouth and smallmouth bass season still ahead, June 13 to Nov. 30.

According to outdoor guides Brian Zinger and Brian Cadoret of Stream and Brook Fly Fishing based in Middlebury, fishing season is looking good.

Zinger and Cadoret publish the Vermont River Report online. They give a thumbs up for Addison County streams: “The Otter Creek tribs are in great shape!

The smallmouth run is going to heat up any day now. Our guide M.T. caught a nice one yesterday while nymphing for Steelhead.Ó And while veterans know the ways and start casting their lines early in the season, newcomers and visitors can still participate in the sport. Getting a fishing license in Vermont is easy. Residents and nonresidentsÑ touristsÑ sign up for licenses every year by the hundreds each year.

According to Cheri Waters of the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department the easiest and fastest way to get a fishing license

is visit the department’s website: www. vtfishandwildlife.com. Ò We sell a lot onlineÑ maybe 30-35 percent of all licenses are purchased on our website,” Waters said. “You can go right to the website, look for the kind of license you want, pay by credit card, and then print out the license at home, That way, if you live out-of-state, you can start fishing as soon as you arrive.Ó Waters noted that it’s just as convenient to visit one of the state’s 250 licensed agents around Vermont for licenses and all the gear you’ll need to start fishing Vermont’s healthy waterways. Ò In Addison and Rutland counties there are many agents who can help you get started,Ó she noted. Ò Places such as Vermont Field Sports, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and many convenience stores—to name a few—make it easy to go fishing.”

Fire investigators looking into Rutland Town fire RUTLAND TOWN —On May 1 the West Rutland and Rutland Town fire departments responded to a fire at 770 Rutland Rd. on the Rutland Town-West Rutland town line.

On the scene, firefighters found a 40-by 80-foot metal building that had heavy black smoke throughout the building.

Firefighters were on scene within five minutes of the alarm and conducted an aggressive interior attack and dampened down the fire.

The business at the location, owned by Dan Kearney, Sr., had closed for the day; no one was in the building. The fire was called in by a passerby.

Mutual aid was received by Rutland Town, Proctor, Clarendon, Ira, and Rutland Regional Ambulance. Damages are estimated to be around $250,000.

West Rutland Fire Department officials requested assistance in investigating the origin and cause of the fire from The Vermont Department of Public Safety Fire Investigation Unit. On May 4, two investigators from the unit responded to the scene and conducted an investigation.

The fire is listed as undetermined but not considered suspicious at this time.

Horses in Vt From page 1

Farm and the National Museum of the Morgan Horse, located in Addison County, celebrate the long and proseprous history of the famous Morgan breed.

Beyond the fame of the Morgan breed, Vermont has been a major player in the horse gameÑ with a few ups and downs over the years, since the 18th century: The Battle of Bennington, fought during the American Revolution, was triggered when British troops attempted to steal a stableful of the rebels’ finest steeds,

www.addison-eagle.com near the site of today’s Bennington Monument.

In recent times, Vermont dairy farmers have cashed-in on the horse industry with a very unusual, yet valuable exportÑ hay.

At least a half-dozen Addison County farmers truck hay, several times a year, to a select number of large Arizona ranches. Then, the tractor-trailers return home, after making the 5,100-mile roundtrip trip, empty and ready to be filled again.

But at the heart of the new landscape is the fact that Vermont has seen a major increase in horse ownership by wealthy exsuburbanitesÑ so-called lady and gentleman farmers. They buy up defunct dairy farms or build new horse-only barns and paddocks on multi-acre, rural tracts.

Littlefield has notced the changes in Vermont. She approves of more horses in the state.

“I’d have to say that Vermont’s most popular horses for owners are the Morgan horse, the Quarter horse, and the Arabian horse,” she noted. “Any horse farm you’ll visit in Vermont will most likely showcase at least one of these three breeds.Ó And then there’s the lush, green beauty of the Vermont backcountry landscape in summer where horses seem to belong naturally—not unlike old England’s rolling horse country.

Lessons and trail rides Another area of growth in Vermont is leisure horseback riding and riding lessons.

Danielle LaBerge of East Middlebury satisfies her passion for horses as a caretaker at the Kingsland Bay Stables in Ferrisburgh.

The stables are owned by Kelli Cole and managed by Mandy

Published by New Market Press, Inc. Brigan.

Last week, LaBerge started her stable workday early by exercising two horses, Baby and Calvin, along Hawkins Road, near the shore of Lake Champlain. Ò Kingsland Bay Stables has 13 horses and we provide riding lessonsÑ in English and Western traditionsÑ as well as trail rides,Ó according to LeBerge. Ò We also board horses.Ó LaBerge owns a horse, too, which is kept on a farm in Salisbury; she concurs that the connection between humans and horses is an ancient and a deep one.

“You get to know each horse as an individual,” she said. “They have their own personality.Ó As soon as the summer season begins on Memorial Day, the stables will see a flock of locals and tourists interested in horseback riding. Blessed with a picturesque location adjoining Kingsland Bay State Park, trail rides include breathtaking views of the lake along evergreen scented trails.

Getting back to Littlefield—her forthcoming book will explore what individuals can apply to everyday life from the deep link found between horse and owner.

“Horses keep you honest,” Littlefield said. “I had heard this expression before, but I didn’t really get it until I realized that these beautiful animals do indeed pinpoint our moods; they seem to know just where we’re at during the day. And then there’s the innate quality of a horse—that’s why so many experts agree with Winston Churchill: ’There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man.’”

Stonecutter From page 3

strate a magnificent talent he considers to be “a gift from God.” A privately commissioned 48-ton stone obelisk of St. Pope John Paul II stands in a cemetery in Chicago. The likeness to the late pope is amazing. The work transcends mere stone; the sculpture expresses both the deep spirituality and the brilliant intellect of the world’s first Polish pontiff.

The themes of death and resurrection are never far from many of Maurice’s memorial works. ÒI was born a Roman Catholic,Ó he notes. ÒI grew up around the Mass and the rosary. I think that’s why I am attracted to do a lot of this work. An occurrence of a fallen sculpture at my father’s place of business affected me deeply, but more so when my father forgave me of the accident. Then, while on his deathbed, my father blessed me and encouraged me to continue this work. So all my work is to God’s glory and to my loving parents. I find a closeness to God when I carve. There’s consolation in what I do.”

Another notable work is Maurice’s “Global War on Terror MonumentÓ in Randolph. In 2010, the work was dedicated to Vermont’s veterans fighting in the post-9/11 world of international terror attacks.

According to former Gov. Jim Douglas who helped dedicate the granite monument, ÒV ermont has a long history of answering the call to arms to defend our nation, and this memorial recognizes those who volunteered and gave their lives in our defense.Ó It’s also worth mentioning that Maurice’s stunning recreation of 19th -century artist Franklin Simmon’s classic likeness of U.S. President Grant rivals the original in spirit as well as detail. Today, the Vermonter’s 68-inch tall commissioned work stands in Georgetown, Ohio.

As a stone sculptor, Maurice has developed his own methods regarding both the creative and mechanical sides of his art.

“I get up at 7 a.m., seven days a week, and work,Ó he says. ÒI may get inspired at 3 a.m. So I get out of bed and sketch my ideas.Ó ÒI may go to the quarry look for blocks already quarried out,Ó he notes. ÒI look at different grades of stone and the grains in them. I am very particular. If I am not, the stone can break.Ó When an idea moves to fruition, Maurice always remains hands on.

For example, while Maurice’s brother takes his drawings and transforms then into CAD-CAM renderings, the renderings are then used by the artist when he begins a work.

When he’s not on assignment at a commercial site, such as Rock of Ages, you’ll find Maurice at work in his own, propane-heated studio shed. And even an artist of Maurice’s caliber is faced with the demands of multitasking.

“I’ll often pick up stone at the quarry in my own truck and drive it back to my Williamstown studio,Ó he says. ÒB ut even then I am working on multiple jobs, traveling between multiple sheds at various memorial companies.Ó To solve a few unique challenges, Maurice has had to invent his own tools, too. ÒF or example, I devised my own eye tools, steel bits that help me create the corneas which help to bring stone eyes alive.Ó Now as far as the human form goes, Maurice likes to return to the emphasis on anatomy. Why? Perhaps because no skilled stone sculptor can truly measure up. As the Vermont artist believes, you must first master an understanding of what lies beneath the flesh before you can sculpt the human or animal form.

“You have to know what the bones, the muscle, the sinews do underneath the skin,Ó he stresses. “You must know this in order to breathe life into the work.Ó If, as pop culture philosopher Marshall McLuhan once said, Òt he medium is the message,Ó then Kenneth Maurice prefers

Vermont’s native rock as his major medium.

“Granite is what I grew up with, so I am very fond of Barre granite and Bethel white granite,Ó Maurice says,Ó but I also work with Vermont marble as well as imported material.Ó

The Vermont Eagle • May 16, 2015 | 9 But in the final analysis, art is business and so the artist recognizes this unabashed fact. ÒI always think about how I can be more competitive,Ó Kenneth Maurice says. ÒW ith cheap, imported memorials around now, you have to set yourself apart. That’s why I go directly to the consumer with one-of-a-kind works of art. Imported works to order show their cheapness after a few yearsÑr ust, cracks, disappearing polish. This is, after all, an artform, not a commodity. VSS offers sculptural services to the monument industry and to individuals worldwide. Very competitive prices for all kinds of sculpture.Ó What more can be said? “Of sculpture,” according to artist Chuck Close, Òi t occupies real space like we do... you walk around it and relate to it almost as another person or another object.Ó He must have been thinking of the exquisite works of Kenneth Maurice.

Ferrisburgh summer camp had famous alumni FERRISBURGH — Few public-access areas along Lake Champlain rival the beauty of Kingsland Bay State Park. This historic park includes a protected scenic bay, swimming beach, boat ramp, picnic tables, walking trails, cliffs and woodlandsÑ all on 264 acres on the shore of Lake Champlain in Ferrisurgh. Historic Hawley House, built in 1790 from the stone rubble of the original Fort Ticonderoga, is a favorite locale for weddings and family gatherings.

But before there was Kingsland Bay State Park there was Ecole Champlain. Today’s park occupies the site of what had been one of the nation’s most exclusive girls summer camp, a camp which in its prime rivaled the nearby Basin Harbor Resort in amenities.

Ecole Champlain, where blue-blooded American and Canadian girls learned to speak French while paddling canoes and preening on the tennis courts, stood on the modern state park site from 1924 until 1974. Except for a few camp structures still standing, all that remain of Ecole Champlain are memories.

But even before Ecole Champlain there was human activity along Kingsland Bay. Today’s state park is an historic site which dates to the 1790s.

The grand and towered Hawley House mansion, which welcomes visitors at the park’s entrance, served as an inn for travelers crossing a ferry that used to link the bay with Grog Harbor, N.Y., starting in the 1790s. During part of the War of 1812, the local militia used the house as an armory. Still later, Catholic monks converted the Hawley mansion into a monastery. The monks added an ornate bell tower to the building under which they chanted vespers by the fading light of the setting Sun across Lake Champlain for several years.

By 1924, Kingsland Bay had emerged from 133 years of relative quiet. The Catholic Church sold the property and in stepped Dr. Edward Collins, a French language professor at Middlebury College. Collins created Ecole Champlain as a place girls from ages 5 to 17 could build strong minds and bodies. Later, after Collins died, his daughter Ruth Collins and husband E. Sheridan Chase ran the camp.

Ecole Champlain in Ferrisburgh attracted the daughters of well known families into the 1970s.

Photo by Cynthia Newberry Martin

Later still, five Chase children operated the camp. The upscale summer camp was last operated by Alyce Ò BabeÓ Schaetze until

its final summer season, 1973. In 1974, the property was sold to Frank and Ginny Brown of Woodstock. A seasonal summer stock theater and restaurant was operated out of Hawley House for a few years, but then the original 350 acres was broken up with the lion share being purchased by the State of Vermont and the remainder going to private parties.

Back in 2014, when the Eagle first visited the story of Ecole Champlain, Carl and Janet Cole of Ferrisburgh shared fond memories of their association with Ecole Champlain. Ò My parents learned about the camp from friends,Ó said Janet, who attended the summer camp during the 1948-49 seasons. Ò It was a beautiful place for young girls to learn many things.

We were housed in either cabins and tents and there were many counselors and tutors available for instruction and guidance.

Even in those days, tuition costs were for the elite. For example, during the summer of 1965, tuition was $1,800.Ó Janet Cole treasures her deep connection with Ecole Champlain; she was both an alumna and a paid Latin tutor at the camp.

Janet’s husband Carl, owner of Carl Cole Realty in Vergennes, met Janet at the camp during the 1960s when he was employed as a camp staff member. The Coles recall that the camp maintained strict discipline (later slightly relaxed) and included Sunday services for Catholics and non Catholics at the camp.

“The Catholic girls were bussed to St. Peter’s in Vergennes every Sunday morning although nondenominational services were held at the camp on Sundays,Ó Janet recalled.

A day at Camp Ecole was long and vigorous. Girls reported to reveille at 7 a.m. and started breakfast by 7:45.. Daily cleaning and inspections were held and girls were expected to report to their assigned, 45-minute classes which include French language instruction, additional language and arts classes, and instruction in everything from horseback riding (European style) and sailing to canoeing and tennisÑ and more. A giant stable, now part of the property of Camp Greylock on the bay, housed up to 85 horses for camp use. Even today, horseback riding is a popular past time around Kingsland Bay. Ò Economics were the primary reasons for the closing of the camp,” according to Carl, “Alyce’s divorce caused friction and a split in the camp shareholders and that really precipitated things. That’s when attendance dropped 40 percent. There were approximately 80 or 90 counselors with 300 girls; the ratio was pretty high. It came at a time when teenage girls were rebelling and just not going to summer camp. The Brown’s business sold off the land to the state which included the waterfront portion.

The camp’s farmhouse and stable were the last to go.”

Through the years, Ecole Champlain had its share of celebrity family girls in attendance. Among them were Roosevelt girls andÑ •Carolyn Lee Bouvier Radziwill, sister of First Lady Jackie Kennedy Onassis attended the camp. The sisters mentioned the camp in a rare book they coauthored in 1951, titled “One Special SummerÓ .

•Suzy Watson, daughter of champion professional golfer Tom Watson attended her arrival at camp by seaplane is still fondly recalled by camp alumni.

•Carol Maytag, the daughter of washing machine mogul Robert E. Maytag, •Cynthia Newberry Martin, author of the celebrated novel Ò The Painting StoryÓ attended and worked as a camp counselor.

She was enchanted by her time in Vermont and returned to attend Vermont College of Fine Arts where she embarked on her literary career.

While Ecole Champlain is gone, it’s era of outdoor elegance lives on in what is preserved at Kingsland Bay State Park today.

Kinglsand Bay State Park opens for the summer season in time for the Memorial Day weekend. Call 802-877-3445 for details.

Rutland approves plan for college expansion RUTLAND Ñ The Rutland City Board of Aldermen approved a request from College of St. Joseph to waive a substantial initial water allocation fee and to stabilize the college’s water and sewer bill over the first five years of the college’s expanded usage.

The Community and Economic Development Committee unanimously voted earlier in the month to recommend that the Aldermen approve the deal. Ò We are grateful Rutland Redevelopment Authority and the Board of Aldermen are supportive of CSJ and our anticipated growth and expansion,Ó said CSJ President Richard Lloyd.

CSJ is anticipating a need for a new dorm and dining hall, as well as changes to pathways and entryways in the next several years.

The city has adopted a number of business incentive policies over the past several years, which can serve to lower initial costs and incentivize business growth and expansion for new and existing businesses. Ò The water usage incentive was developed to encourage just the type of investment CSJ is currently planning. The city looks forward to continuing to support and encourage the college, and

other new businesses, to invest and grow in Rutland City,Ó said Rutland City Mayor Chris Louras.

The Water/Wastewater Rate Reduction Incentive that CSJ was awarded was developed last year as a means of reducing costs for qualifying businesses utilizing more than 1,000 gallons per day. The incentive utilizes Rutland City’s robust water and wastewater infrastructure and is a unique benefit the city can offer to new high volume water users.

The Rutland Redevelopment Authority serves as the economic development entity for Rutland City and works to facilitate growth and expansion for Rutland businesses. Ò We are thrilled to be able to assist College of St. Joseph in their expansion plans. Rutland City strives to be the most business friendly destination in Vermont and this is an example of our willingness to help new or existing businesses to grow and succeed,Ó said Brennan Duffy, RRA Executive Director. Ò The planned investment being considered by CSJ will have a long term positive benefit to the city as new students and positions are created. We are pleased to be able to assist the college and allow their expansion planning process to continue,Ó said Board of Aldermen President William Notte.

The analysis from the Department of Public Works puts price tags on three options for complying with that law.

In option A, widening the road to 28 feet will cost $418,078. The configuration includes two 11-foot-wide car lanes and two three-foot bike lanes on the sides.

Options B and C also feature 11-foot car lanes, but they provide additional shoulder width for cyclists and pedestrians. Four-foot-wide shoulders raise the total cost to $514,961; five-foot shoulders spike the estimate up to $629,561 Ñ a 139 percent increase above a standard repair.

Making room for bikes and pedestrians is optional under Act 34. But municipalities that do not make accommodations must provide a written defense of the decision. Moreover, rejecting complete streets options could jeopardize a city’s ability to obtain road grants.

Wendy Wilton, treasurer for Rutland City, said decisions about Dorr Drive ultimately come down to money. Ò If $600,000 falls from the sky from the coffers of the state of Vermont, we could do it. But if we don’t have the money, we don’t. Our whole paving budget is about half-a-million bucks.”

Wilton, who enjoys cycling and frequently walks to work, said Dorr Drive’s location may also influence the outcome.

“It’s right between a hillside and a river. … There isn’t a lot of space to move it out, so you’d have to build the land up. I can imagine it would be outrageously expensive.Ó Jeff Wennberg, Rutland’s public works commissioner, said the repair of Dorr Drive hinges on obtaining a $175,000 Class 2 roads grant from the Agency of Transportation. If the city gets the grant, Wennberg says, his department will request bids based on the least expensive complete streets configuration — the 28-foot-wide road with 11-foot vehicle lanes and three-foot shoulders. Ò If the bids come in for the complete streets option at a cost that the city believes is affordable, and warranted by the benefit derived, we will choose that option,” Wennberg said.

At a cost of $418,078, that choice is 58 percent higher than simply restoring the road to its current 25.4-foot width and leaving out bike lanes.

Such considerations are not unique to Rutland.Last year in Burlington, an estimate for adding bike lanes to a 0.8 mile stretch of North Avenue came in at between $300,000 and $400,000. Burlington’s mayor said a pilot version was closer to $50,000.

ROAD REPAIR: Implementing complete streets provisions could raise road repair costs between 58 percent and 139 percent, according to one recent estimate.

Wennberg said he supports a complete streets concept for Dorr Drive, but he admits money is a big issue. “(The city) recognizes and embraces the benefits that may result from implementing complete streets concepts in city projects. However, we also recognize that, as a result of adding complete street features to a project, the overall cost may increase, creating financial difficulties. … Financial reality demands that the city lives within its budgetary constraints.Ó
