Vigilant Guard event, July 25 MIDDLEBURY — More than 5,000 emergency responders will take part in Vermont’s largest ever emergency exercise July 25. Individuals involved in emergency response on the local, state, and federal levels will be tested in the face of extreme circumstances as part of Vermont’s Vigilant Guard catastrophic emergency exercise. The simulation will play out in 50 locations throughout Vermont and include state agencies, local communities, 16 hospitals, the Burlington Airport, and the Vermont National Guard among many others. Three years in the planning, its goal is to evaluate performance and identify gaps that may exist in the state’s response to a catastrophic event. The exercise will begin on July 25 and take place over nine days. Emergency Operations Centers at several state agencies and the National Guard will be activated at different times during the week, and the exercise will culminate with a 53 hour aroundthe-clock activation at the State Emergency Operations Center involving all agencies. National Guard vehicles will be on the road and in the sky during the event, and hundreds of members of the Guard will perform emergency tasks for which CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com
MIDDLEBURY — If there ever was a “secret” to living to the age of 100, Lucien D. Paquette is more than willing to admit it probably has something to do with a watchful Providence and—maybe, too—fresh beet greens from his backyard garden. Lucien was born at home, Aug. 14, 1916, on a dairy farm in Craftsbury, Vt., to devout Roman Catholic, French-Canadian immigrant parents. CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

Adam Meyers
MIDDLEBURY — Several area businesses will be teaming up to raise money for the Middlebury Fire Department on Saturday, July 23, as part of a fundraiser in honor of former fire fighter, Adam Myers. Adam Myers was a dedicated member of the Middlebury Fire Department until his tragic death in a car accident on July 20, 2011. Myers left behind a wife, two sons, and many friends and family along with a legacy of community service. The fifth annual Adam Myers Memorial Fundraiser for the Middlebury Fire Department will be a weekend-long event made possible by the generous contributions of organizations such as R.k. Miles, Storm Cafe, Two Brothers Tavern, Goodro Lumber, Vermont Shade and Blind, Otter Creek Brewing, Woodchuck Cider, Drop-In Brewery, American Flatbread, Marble Works Partnership,
Artist Mike Mayonne and many more who have donated cash or items to be raffled off in Adam’s memory to benefit the Middlebury Fire Department. Friends and family will be traveling from across the country to honor Adam’s memory and to support the MFD. Ryan Emilio, one of Adam’s former colleagues on MFD, tried to explain just how much Adam Myers meant to the Fire Department: “Adam was in integral part of our technical rescue team and a huge champion of everything we do here at the Department. His hard work, dedication and enthusiasm can never be replaced and will never be forgotten.” Holmes Jacobs, a friend and former employer of Adam at Two Brothers Tavern reiterated how big a loss Adam’s death was to the community. “Adam was a wonderful individual. He was a devoted and CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Exchange Street sidewalk plans include room for bicycles MIDDLEBURY — At the June 28 Middlebury Select Board meeting, the Board approved the submission of a grant application being prepared by the Regional Planning Commission to seek funding for the completion of Phase III of the Exchange Street Sidewalk Project, from Catamount Park to the intersection with Route 7. The town’s VTrans Bike/Ped Program grant award was sufficient to fund a portion of Phase III of the project and extend the sidewalk from MacIntyre Services to the entry to Catamount Park. In response to Board and community input during a review of the designs for Phases I and II of the project, the Select Board agreed to pursue additional funds in 2016 for the design and construction of a shared-use path for the final portion of Phase III. At a width of 8 feet, versus 5 feet for a traditional sidewalk
design, a shared-use path would be wide enough to accommodate both pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Doug Henson of Lamoureux & Dickinson, an engineering firm, will provide an update to the Board on the conceptual design for Phase III of the project at a meeting July 12. At that time, the Board will explore the feasibility of extending the shared-use path concept further south on Exchange Street.

Scott vs. Lisman
epublican voters are about the select their candidate for Governor of Vermont. Much like the national GOP primary run, the choice is between the establishment and the outsider. According to a recent Vermont Business Magazine report, “(Lt. Gov. Phil) Scott received the endorsements of all Vermont Republican legislators with the except State Reps. Donald Turner, Doug Gage, Mary Morrissey, Job Tate, and Paul Dame...” But on the flip side of the GOP gubernatorial coin, opponent Bruce Lisman appears to be more blunt when compared to Scott; he has a detailed approach to addressing the state’s energy, tax, financial and health care crises—and all without carrying the Shumlin administration’s baggage that Lt. Gov. Scott bears. Scott is seen by many core Republicans as reluctant to take on what many Democrat and Progressive Vermont voters have been passionate about—transform-
ing the state into a large-scale solar- and wind-farm experiment. However, Scott has expressed negative views about the on-again, off-again proposed carbon tax, an issue which is likely to reemerge in the capitol after the election. Lisman’s support of a temporary moratorium on industrial-scale solar and wind projects, is a plan which makes folks such as New Haven Select Board Doug Tolles—and a growing number of others like him around the state—pleased. Regarding gun rights, Scott received an “A” grade from the National Rifle Association, indicating he has a pro-gun rights voting record. But Lisman has also shown himself to be a strong advocate of gun rights, too. So be it. It’s almost zero hour. So, when the poll booth curtain is drawn, the decision will be up to the voter.

Enough already
nough already with the senseless shootings and assassinations of innocent law enforcement officers. To what end do protestors think this will, in any form or fashion, help their cause to lessen police suspicion of black individuals? Brave men and women fight everyday to preserve our freedoms. Many have given their lives defending the American Flag so that protesters may burn that same flag in defiance of what our nation stands for. Dan Alexander While many do not agree with that act of Thoughts from defiance, we respect their right to demonstrate their frustrations, by desecrating the Behind the Pressline symbol of our nation. But ambushing and killing police officers because you disagree with their methods is nothing more than a cowardly and despicable act of murder and treason. Every government leader and every protest group must strongly condemn these acts and the individuals who carry them out. Furthermore organized groups that encourage or even claim to understand or sympathize with the killing of any government officials, and who repeatedly chant death rhetoric and incite these actions versus allowing the judicial system to deal with heavy handed police officers who have overstepped their authority, should be outlawed as subversive terrorist organizations. The time has long since passed to put an end to these actions, as each of these events only increases the chance that law enforcement will be more on edge when conducting an arrest and the likelihood of another unthinkable fatal shooting. The entire process is only making matters worse and unless it is controlled it will only escalate further with more lives destroyed on both sides of the racial divide leaving families and communities in complete bewilderment over why these death could not have been prevented. As I write this column Sunday night, we are hearing reports of 30,000 paid protesters converging this week in Cleveland to protest the at the Republican National Convention. Reports are protesters will be paid to show up and paid an additional stipend if they get arrested. I can’t imagine a worse recipe for disaster. I hope by the time you read this column those protests resulted in no deaths or injuries. Given the intensity of growing anger in this nation around the political posturing of both sides, it seems we are evolving into a highly combustible environment and cooler heads must prevail. I can see no purpose in protesting at a political convention. The only way to accomplish a political outcome in our democracy is at the voting booth and if that outcome doesn’t suit you then your alternatives are through our court system or looking for a country more in step with your personal views. Respect for our laws and law enforcement must prevail or we will find ourselves no better off than the lands governed by terrorists in third world counties. It’s up to those of us who abide by the law to remain steadfast in encouraging peace and order within the accepted norms of society. It starts and ends with respect and faith in our system, for without it we are left with nothing but anarchy. Dan Alexander is associate publisher of New Market Press.

McClaughry: In response to Alan Betts To the Editor: Let me respond to just two of the many charges —about my recent commentary in the Vermont Eagle—made by Pittsford’s self-promoted “leading climate scientist” Alan Betts in a letter to the Eagle. One is his assertion that my claim that the “climate skeptics are dedicated defenders of science” is “a big lie at its most infamous.” On the contrary, the scientists who are forcing Betts & Co. to defend their claims about catastrophic anthropogenic global warming are the ones who are keeping Science honest. Every respectable scientist welcomes critiques of his or her work, and makes their data available for public inspection. But to Betts, the science is settled. Anybody who casts doubt on, say, that great scientist Michael Mann, is an ignorant “yahoo”, or tool of the fossil fuel industry. Silence. This is the scowling face of tyranny, not science. It’s amusing that Betts should anoint Michael Mann as a “great scientist.” Mann invented – literally – the hockey stick graph that so thrilled Betts & Co. and the IPCC in 1999. But Mann wouldn’t release his data because “you only want to attack it.” When it was pried out of him, it turned out that his claim was based on a handful of ancient bristlecone pine tree rings, he had discarded data that was inconvenient, and his data management algorithm was deliberately designed to produce a hockey stick curve no matter what data was entered. That’s why the IPCC tiptoed away from it in their ensuing reports. What Betts needs to come clean on is his demand that the Obama administration use the Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO, passed to prosecute the Mob) to prosecute fossil fuel companies, notably ExxonMobil, for the vague offense of something like “knowing in 1985 that climate might change and thereby change the company’s prospects for drilling in the Arctic, and not making their analysis public.” This is part of the political attack on Exxon Mobil by cli-
mate warriors, clearly launched in an effort to find something to file charges on, that will force the fossil-fuel companies to settle for billions of dollars in (spurious) damages. Such political attacks have nothing to do with anybody’s freedom of speech, says Betts, and he’s irate that even a critic as insignificant as John McClaughry is still at large. Well, I’m irate that Betts & Co. (government funded, of course) are trying to get a friendly federal government to silence scientists, organizations, and companies who dare to dissent from their political dogma. In addition to my two science degrees, I have one in political science. One thing I learned – not in grad school – was to be very careful about calling people liars. Some will resent it, especially if they’re not lying. I’ll leave it at that. John McClaughry Ethan Allen Institute Montpelier

Police Beat Driver turns himself in to police RUTLAND TOWN — On July 12, members of the Vermont State Police responded to a property damage crash on Post Road in Rutland Town. Witnesses at the scene advised that a blue Dodge Caravan had struck a utility pole, then left the scene. Witnesses were able to provide a Vermont registration number to the responding trooper. A short time later, the vehicle was located at the registered owners address, however, the owner of the vehicle could not be located. The vehicle was observed to have moderate damage to the right side, consistent with colliding with the utility pole. Debris from the pole were also seen inside the vehicle. The vehicle was subsequently seized from the residence in order to gain additional evidence. On July 13, the registered owner, and operator at the time of the crash, Neil Hayes, 47, of Rutland, contacted the VSP regarding the crash. Hayes was subsequently arrested and charged with leaving the scene of a crash
Distracted driving behind Route 7 crash NEW HAVEN — On July, 14, at approximately 8:38 a.m., Vermont State Police dispatch advised troopers of a three-car motor vehicle collision near the intersection of U.S. Route 7 and State Route 17 in New Haven. Upon arrival, State Police troopers met with operator 1, identified as Peter Lynch, 24, of Burlington. Lynch advised police that prior to the collision, he was travelling southbound on Route 7 at approximately 40 mph when he could see vehicles slowing ahead of him. Lynch said that he slowed to about 15-20 mph near the intersection with Route 17 and that he briefly glanced down to grab his bagel from the passenger seat. When he looked back up the vehicles ahead of him were completely stopped. Lynch stated that he attempted to stop, but collided with the vehicle in front of him. State Police subsequently spoke with operator 2, identified as Becky Quesnel, 40, of Ferrisbrugh. Quesnel advised police that prior to the collision, she was travelling southbound on Route 7. Quesnel said that the vehicle in front of her slowed and then came to a complete stop as they approached the intersection with Route 17. Quesnel advised that she slowed and came to a stop and that she was subsequently rear-ended. Lastly, State Police spoke with operator 3, identified as Cecile Gebo, 70, of Vergennes. Gebo advised police that prior to the collision, she was travelling southbound on Route 7 when she noticed a vehicle in the northbound lane waiting to turn onto Route 17. Gebo said that she slowed and eventually stopped to let the vehicle turn. Gebo told police that she was subsequently rear-ended by the vehicle behind her. All vehicles involved sustained moderate contact damage. Lynch was not injured, while Quesnel and Gebo were treated for soreness. State Police do not believe alcohol or drugs played a factor in the collision.
Accident on Burr Pond Road SUDBURY — On June 22, Vermont State Police responded to a site on Burr Pond Road in Sudbury for a report of a two car motor vehicle crash. Upon arriving on scene, vehicle 1, operated by Sophia Bloomer, 16, of Sudbury, was halfway off the road, in the eastbound lane, and blocking traffic. Vehicle 2, operated by Brittany Pierce, 23, of Hubbardton, was facing east on the shoulder of the westbound lane. Both motorists advised police that they were uninjured, however, neither vehicle was operable. Bloomer was traveling west and crossed the center line. While attempting to regain her lane she was impacted, in the eastbound lane, by Pierce, who was traveling east. The impact caused Bloomer to spin and go off the roadway, and Pierce to travel across the roadway and go off the highway. Police reported that the reason for this crash was Bloomer crossed the center line. The lack of injuries was partially attributed to proper seat belt use, police said.
Wanted Brandon man arrested BRANDON — Acting on a private tip reporting a Vermont “wanted” person, Vermont State Police troopers responded to Branbury State Park located in the Town of Leicester. Upon arrival, a State Police K9 Team was deployed and located the accused in a crowd of people. The accused, Adam Hornbeck of Brandon, was taken into custody without incident. The accused admitted that he had cut off his FSU-GPS tracking device to prevent his location from being known. Hornbeck was lodged at Marble Valley Correction Center located in the City of Rutland, VT.

$15 minimum wage met with skepticism in Vermont Vermont Watchdog Report By Michael Bielawski mbielawski@watchdog.org
Moreover, a 2013 survey of San Jose businesses found that 42 percent cut staff when the city raised the minimum wage to $10 per hour a few years back. Another 45 percent of businesses reported cutting back hours, and 66 percent said they raised prices. Galbraith’s campaign opponents warn that governmentset wages hurt businesses, leading to a host of negative economic consequences. Republican Bruce Lisman opposes the $15 minimum wage because he thinks it will hurt small businesses. “We’re a small business state — 96 percent of the businesses in this state are

MONTPELIER — Vermont gubernatorial candidate Peter Galbraith (D) is making a $15 minimum wage a centerpiece of his campaign, but Republican opponents and one local economics professor say the wage could hurt Vermont’s economy. Galbraith, a former state senator and U.S. diplomat, has touted the higher wage in television ads and press releases, as well as at a recent debate. The Democrat from Townshend proposes raising the wage to $12.50 immediately, then upping it to $15 in increments. “I’m totally committed, and have been for a long time, to the higher minimum wage,” Galbraith said during last month’s debate in Irasburg. “When I was in the Senate I pushed legislation to introduce a minimum wage of $12 by 2015. I’m sorry that it didn’t happen.” Galbraith argues that the minimum wage didn’t increase unemployment during the Great Depression of the 1930s, and says a $15 minimum wage today, when adjusted for inflation, is less than what the wage was in the 1960s. In 2014, Gov. Peter Shumlin signed a law increasing Vermont’s minimum wage to $9.60 this year, $10 in 2017 and $10.50 in 2018. The law’s ceremonial signing occurred at a popular bread company which had no employees affected by the wage hike. Sara Solnick, chair of the economics department at the University of Vermont, has concerns with mandatory wage increases. “To say it has no negative effects depends entirely on how high you raise the minimum wage,” she said. Solnick, citing New York Times writer and economist Noam Scheiber, said a feasible minimum wage would be one that doesn’t exceed 60 percent of the median wage. As the theory goes, a state with a median hourly wage equivalent to $25 per hour can handle a $15 minimum wage. Vermont’s median hourly wage, which is $17.81, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, misses the mark. In California, where Gov. Jerry Brown (D) signed a $15 wage into law this year, businesses claim they will be forced to lay off employees to survive the higher economic strain. Officials surveyed 1,000 businesses in Los Angeles and found 96 percent planned to raise prices to make up for increased labor costs.
classified as small,” Lisman said. “Sixty percent of the people in the state work for a small business, and (those businesses) are run on very tight margins.” Lisman supports the Earned Income Tax Credit, instead, calling it “the best anti-poverty tool we have in the country.” Lt. Gov. Phil Scott, also a Republican candidate for governor, has operated a construction business for more than three decades. Scott, speaking at the Irasburg debate, said raising the minimum wage forces businesses to raise wages at all levels of the organization. “If there’s a $15 minimum wage, then my (current) $15-anhour folks are going to want $18, and my $18-an-hour folks are going to want $21, and my $21-an-hour folks are going to want $24. That just ratchets up the cost of living. Who’s going to pay for that? You are,” he said. Matt Dunne, a Democrat gubernatorial candidate and former state representative, said the state minimum should keep pace with the cost of living. “The reason that I voted for putting in the index year after year is so that people couldn’t block legislation that would allow us to get so far behind, which is what happened be-
tween the ’70s and today.” Dunne suggested that by not raising the minimum wage, we are all forced to provide government benefits to low-wage earners, including the Earned Income Tax Credit, childcare subsidies and Medicaid. Scott said the Legislature tied wages to the cost of living index years ago, and did so with a promise that it would fix the issue. “Well ten years later, we are having this conversation again,” he said. Sue Minter, another Democrat running for governor, did not return Watchdog’s requests for comment on the minimum wage. However, her campaign website says she supports a $12.50 minimum wage by the year 2018, with an eventual rise to $15. “Raising the minimum wage will provide greater economic opportunity to help lift working Vermonters out of poverty and provide better lives for themselves and their families,” the website states.

Basin Harbor’s Champ’s Challenge marks a milestone
VERGENNES — It was clear sailing for the 10th Annual Champ’s Challenge for Cystic Fibrosis at the Basin Harbor Club in Vergennes July 17. Last weekend’s event marked a significant milestone for the Addison County sporting event for a good cause. The event offered a scenic 40-mile and a 8-mile cycling options as well as a 5K run/walk through the private Basin Harbor Club property. Participants were treated to a lakeside BBQ lunch reception provided by the Basin Harbor Club with raffle and give-away drawings. All proceeds benefited the Cystic Fibrosis Lifestyle Foundation (CFLF) providing Recreation Grants that provide financial assistance to patients nationally to directly fund exercise-based activities. The event was founded in 2007, after the CFLF Founder Brian Callanan, an adult with cystic fibrosis (CF) living in Burlington, rode his bicycle over 2,000 miles from Canada to Key West to raise awareness and funds to help others fighting the disease. While this feat was an extreme accomplishment, the challenge was extra-ordinary in demonstrating to the CF population that
physical limits once placed upon patients were being shattered. Every summer, Champ’s Challenge is organized by a committee of dedicated volunteers—along with the CFLF Director Brian Callanan and Program Coordinator Erin Evans also an adult with the genetic lung disease. Evans describes the event as “the largest single source of grassroots fundraising for CFLF each year. It is a tremendous inspiration to witness the excitement and passion of the volunteers and cyclists at this event each year.” Affecting more than 30,000 people in the United States, cystic fibrosis is known primarily for its thick and sticky mucus that clogs the airways and blocks the secretion of pancreatic enzymes required for digestion and nutritional absorption. Basically, eating and breathing are significantly compromised for people with the disease, making survival nothing short of a challenge. Dr. Thomas Lahiri, CF center director at the University of Vermont Medical Center said, “This is an incredibly well organized event, supporting a cause that has direct impact on the lives of patients fighting this disease every day of their life. I
have supported Brian as both a patient and a leader in the community through the CFLF since its inception, and am a proud supporter of the cause and this event.” Callanan gives credit to exercise for his excellent health at the age of 39. “Whether cycling the East Coast, hiking and snowboarding at more than 12,000 feet, or distance swimming in the salt-water ocean, I thrive on the benefits of increased airway clearance, improved appetite, elevated energy and overall sense of self-esteem. Maintaining normal lung function at my age is virtually unheard of. I want to inspire others with CF to strive for a life that is full and rich, with a mindset that does not subscribe to limitation.” Evans also believes in the power of active lifestyle in managing her CF. As a varsity athlete in soccer, basketball and softball during high school, she accomplished her first century (100 miles) bike ride in 2008. As part of her ongoing commitment to exercise in changing the face of CF, she regularly cycles, runs, plays softball, racquetball and practices yoga.

Region’s Bigfoot sightings date to pre-colonial times By Lou Varricchio
lou@suncommunitynews.com
MIDDLEBURY — Starting in 2014, the Eagle began its series of occasional reports and updates on Bigfoot sightings in Vermont and nearby New York. The Eagle visited with a Bigfoot enthusiast who helps track down reports of the famous deep-woods creature. While skeptical biologists and zoologists do not believe such humanoid creatures exist, enthusiasts are actively engaged in collecting scattered evidence for such an elusive, large apelike animal locally. Here in northern New England—as well as upstate New York and French Canada—the legendary Bigfoot is sometimes known by its ancient Algonquian Indian name, Wejuk— pronounced wee-juck. According to the Skeptic’s Dictionary online, “The scientific community discounts the existence of Bigfoot, as there is no evidence supporting the survival of such a large, prehistoric ape-like creature. The evidence that does exist points more towards a hoax or delusion than to sightings of a genuine creature.” No matter what the staff of the Skeptic’s Dictionary write, serious Sasquatch enthusiasts living in the Vermont-New York area are true believers; they are most likely to be member of an organization known as the Northern Sasquatch Research Society (NSRS). Bill Brann heads up NSRS from his home in Hudson Falls, N.Y. According to Brann, the organization began more than a decade ago. “Actually, our mutual interest and experience with Sasquatch sightings goes back nearly 40 years now,” Brann said. Brann has collected a considerable archive of Bigfoot-related material from Vermont and New York, especially plaster casts of footprints and eyewitness reports. Few historians or folklorists have bothered
to collect bigfoot tales, but Brann and other NSRS members are keen about documenting these things, past and present. ”In 1603, Samuel de Champlain reported several native stories about Sasquatch—Wejuk—sightings along the St. Lawrence River,” Brann told the Eagle. “The Native Americans of that time were calling the creature, in their native language, Stone Giant or Hairy Wildman. In the 1700s, colonial frontiersman Robert Rogers and his Rangers were pursued by some thing in the north woods. One of Roger’s Rangers claimed the creature had legs as large as spruce logs.” Brann said that settlers in Vermont in the early 1800s described an animal called Old Slippery Skin or Old Wet Skin. “Was it (really) wet or greasy looking? We don’t know, but the thing knocked over fence rails, kicked manure piles, threw rocks, even chased cattle and goats,” he said. “Today, we use the western American Indian name Sasquatch, even Bigfoot. Now as you get into the early 1900s, you then start encountering reports of the animal in the Adirondacks, too.” Brann said that the most famous Bigfoot encounter in our region occurred 40 years ago this August. In August 1976, less than 2 miles across the Vermont stateline in Hampton, N.Y., three men encountered what they claim was a Bigfoot creature. This event has been reported— and reenacted—in books and several television documentary films in the intervening years. It was former Whitehall, N.Y., Police Officer Brian Gosselin, along with his brother Paul Gosselin and Marty Padick, who had the close encounter with the thing on Abair Road in Hampton 40 years ago. But when it comes to Wejuk—aka Sasquatch—sightings there always appears to be problems. As an example, Brann said that retellings of the 1976 Hampton, N.Y., incident by the entertainment media haven’t always been respectful of the eyewitnesses and their accounts.
Members of the Northern Sasquatch Research Society collect information about Bigfoot sightings in Vermont and the Adirondack region; sightings date back to pre-colonial days.

“It’s always about the individuals and how they want to interpret things,” Brann said “For example, I co-authored a book, entitled ‘Monsters of the North Woods’, but I didn’t edit it. There are things in the book that shouldn’t be there and things said that were never said... We’ve been down this road too many times to get the truth out. Fifty years from now, historians will get it wrong because the contemporary accounts are wrong. It’s important to get it right (the first time).” According to Brann, the region from far southwest Rutland County—including the Poultney River watershed—and on into the Lake Champlain corridor, is a significant lo-
cation for several Wejuk sightings over the years. “This is an area with very dense forested tracts and swamps,” Brann said. “Brian (Gosselin) likes to describe this region—especially the land between Lake Champlain and Lake George—as being like the Amazon. He says, ‘from (West Haven), and once you cross Lake Champlain (and South Bay), you have a stretch of forest that goes clear up to Ticonderoga—and that’s just one mountain range. Northeast of Whitehall, East Bay stream is like the Amazon. There are places for Bigfoot there—miles and miles of wilderness, big swamps, mountains, and caves.’”

TB in Vermont: risk vs. benefit By Timothy G. Cook, M.D.
The Vermont Eagle • July 23, 2016 | 13
Guest viewpoint
As a practicing physician I am obligated to discuss risk versus benefit for any course of medical treatment. It is in the spirit of this obligation that I addressed the Rutland City Board of Aldermen, and the public, on July 5. So far, only the benefits of a refugee resettlement program have been seriously discussed, yet public health risks have been ignored. In my discussion I referred to information from the Vermont State Department of Health stating that about one-third of the approximately 900 refugees resettled in Vermont since 2013 have been diagnosed with latent tuberculosis. Latent TB is not infectious, however approximately 10 percent of those carrying it will at some point in time convert to the active and infectious form of the disease. A simple extrapolation of these numbers indicates that if Rutland were to receive 100 refugees, there is a possibility that three or more of these individuals could introduce active, infectious tuberculosis
into the Rutland community. The plan for resettlement contemplates a similar number of new refugees entering the community each year as it is a long term program. Recently, the Vermont Department of Health has admitted that there have been a total of three cases of refugee-associated active TB diagnosed in the last seven months and 17 refugeeassociated cases diagnosed altogether since 2003. This number may not seem like a lot, but when you compare refugee-associated versus U.S. born-associated cases, active TB occurs in one out of 370 refugees while in the same 13 year timeframe it occurs in one out of 22,846 U.S.born Vermont residents, or at a rate 60 times greater. I finished my discussion by suggesting that the city owes the public a thorough discussion of this potential risk before moving forward with the resettlement. Do Vermonters have a right to ask if there is a risk to this community based upon the above statistics? Shouldn’t that answer come from the Vermont Department of Health? And if the City of Rutland admits there is a risk, why, exactly, is this program worth taking that risk? What is it exactly that the citizens of the city get out of having such a risk imposed upon them without their knowledge? At the end of my discussion I gave my e-mail address and invited anyone to provide answers to the above questions. Thus far, nobody has offered any answers, which to me speaks volumes about the situation we are facing. Therefore, I again invite anyone, either on this editorial page, or directly to my email at timothygcookmd@gmail.com, to provide answers to these very reasonable questions.

Lucien Paquette at home in the garden in Middlebury.
Lucien Paquette From page 1
Between later serving as a county extention agent, Morgan Horse Farm superintendent, agricultural educator, and founding father of Addison County Fair & Field Days, he and his late wife Loretta settled in Middlebury and raised 12 children, all following their 1945 marriage. The big family was close and most members enjoyed their father’s work, county fair time, gardening and alpine skiing. Standing in his lush, backyard vegetable garden along Weybridge Street in Middlebury, just one month before his 100th birthday, Paquette— a retired University of Vermont Extension Agent (1940-1982), UVM Morgan Horse Farm superintendent (1951-59), and founding father of Addison County Fair & Field Days (starting in 1946 to present)—talked with the Vermont Eagle and waxed philosophical and agricultural. Lucien also talked about his grape arbor and unique grape fruit pie recipe, using his own homegrown grapes. All of Lucien’s seven siblings were born in the family’s Craftsbury farmhouse, built in 1910. The Paquette homestead became the residence of Lucien’s younger brother Wilfred. He died at age 95, just shy of his older brother’s 100th year, early this July. “My brother Wilfred died in the house in which he was born,” Lucien said. Just before his 1935 graduation from of Craftsbury Academy and Senior High School, Lucien applied to—and was accepted by—the University of Vermont as an agricultural science major. “I graduated in 1940,” he noted, “with a B.S. degree in agriculture, magna cum laude.” During the 1960s, Lucien achieved a master’s degree in agricultural extension education with studies at both Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin. He attained the status of professor and taught in an adjunct capacity. “My interest in agriculture came from growing up on a dairy farm,” Paquette said. “Even while I was an undergraduate I started a poultry business on the UVM campus in Burlington. There was a vacant UVM poultry building so they let me use it. I bought hens, they laid the eggs, and I started an egg route in Burlington. At that time I bought my first car—a pre-war, two-door Chevrolet.” A short-time later, Lucien was asked to interview for the County Agent’s position in Grand Isle. Needless to say, he was offered the job. Now he was between a rock and a hard place. Continue on in Extension Service work or continue to develop a burgeoning, successful, entrepreneurial egg business. Meanwhile, one of Lucien’s brothers, Leonel, was teaching agriculture in Craftsbury. The brothers consulted. Leonel and

his wife took over Lucien’s expanding egg business. Ironically, Lucien’s business legacy continues today. Starting in 1940, Leonel Paquette moved the egg business from the old UVM building to Colchester. He created Shadow Cross Farms located at 1348 Blakely Rd. Now, Leonel’s son continues the egg business delivering Grade-A, farm-fresh eggs and a full-line of dairy products to restaurants and stores around the Burlington area. After serving as UVM’s Grand Isle County Extension Agent in Agriculture and Youth from 1940 to 1946, during all of World War II, he also coordinated a selfless wartime effort making cotton mattresses in the town hall for needy county residents still enduring the lingering effects of the Great Depression. In January 1946, Lucien was invited to apply and become the County Agent in Addison County. “In 1946 I applied for the Addison County position at the invitation of UVM Dean of Agriculture Joseph P. Carrigan,” he said. “Joe was one of the first UVM Extension Agents; the program started in 1914. In fact, he was Addison County’s first agricultural extension agent.” Settling in to the job of extension agent in Middlebury, Lucien developed successful programs for farmers as well as gardeners. His regular broadcasts of farm and garden news on WFAD-AM was heard on just about every house and barn radio from the 1960s into the ‘80s. But it was at the start of his tenure that Lucien had realized that the effects of wartime rationing were still holding sway in Addison County. “Farmers and homemakers were restricted; somethings, such as farm equipment, were not available,” he said. “They had to go through a local county rationing board if they wanted to get a tractor because more than one person wanted that one tractor that was available. Tractors didn’t have rubber tires; they had steel wheels because rubber was needed for the war effort.” It was post-war shortages which spurred Lucien to create a “field days” program in Addison County. As Lucien pointed out, Addison County’s former fairgrounds, located on the site of today’s Mary Hogan Elementary School in Middlebury, had already closed; local farmers had lost a place to gather, socialize, and exchange ideas while seeing new farm equipment on display. “I did a similar thing earlier with the 4-H Club in Grand Isle,” he said. “It was different from Field Days, but it was the basic idea—a demonstration day for farmers to see and experience new equipment, techniques on a farm.” Within a year of war’s end, Lucien observed that things previously unavailable to farmers and homemakers were slowly returning to market. “Wouldn’t it be good to let people learn about these new
things? So I contacted local business people. Everyone liked the idea. They would pay a fee to exhibit their wares. So, the first year we had a two-day event in July, later it was moved to August. We set up a tent on Munger Street in East Middlebury that was 100 feet long. We did that for several years rotating the site between five farms.” His idea was to hold Field Days on an active farm where equipment could be operated. Both men and women worked with equipment demonstrations even cooking, canning, and other demonstrations, too. “Of course, today, Field Days has grown and we have a permanent site in New Haven, but it has pretty much stayed the way I envisioned it. Today, Addison County Fair & Field Days is noted as the largest agricultural fair in Vermont. We’re proud of the fact.” Lucien also pointed out that he started the popular handmowing competition at Field Days in 1978. Other rural fairs around the nation have copied the old-time event. According to Anya Huneke of New Haven, “One of the (Field Days) contests (that) stands out (most) for its unique, nostalgic nature—it’s the hand mowing competition, started by Lucien... For decades, he has run the hand-mowing contest at the fair, for fun, but also to remind people of a simpler time in farming. When Lucien started the fair back in ‘48, there were no rides, no hand-mowing contests, only about 2,000 visitors, and a mission of educating the public about agriculture. Now, there is much more to do for the 40,000 or so visitors, but the core message has stayed the same. Lucien’s children grew up at this fair, and now his grandchildren are doing the same.” At the start of thiis year’s Addison County Fair & Field Days, Lucien will be honored by the fair board and friends of the annual event in the new exhibit building which bears his name. The fair’s founding father is the center of attention and rightfully so in 2016. For the senior citizen whose secret to longevity might be best boiled down to a watchful Providence and eating gardenfresh beet greens, life is meant to be lived, celebrated, and cherished. In 2012, Addison County Right to Life’s Marie Dion presented Lucien, an ACRTL charter member, with a plaque for 30 years of exemplary and dedicated service. As treasurer and community outreach volunteer of the local chapter, Lucien received the award having just suffered a broken hip at the time. “Many people ask me, ‘What’s your secret to long life?’ Well, I don’t feel that I have any secret. I love my (red) beet greens a lot—I cook them in water. But I don’t do anything special, I am a man of faith; it all comes from up there,” Paquette said, pointing to a cloudless, blue sky above him. “I have been blessed.”
