Local 4-H teens win at Big E
Students, faculty, others join in Climate Strike
4-H Dairy Club awards By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
Local Vermont 4-H teen dairy members won big at the “Big E,” capturing several championships in both fitting and showing and conformation. Thirty 4-H members represented University of Vermont (UVM) Extension 4-H at the regional dairy show, held Sept. 14-15, at Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, Massachusetts. All earned a spot in the delegation for their outstanding performance at the Vermont 4-H dairy show in August. Several fitting and showmanship classes for juniors (ages 12 to 14) and seniors (ages 15 to 18) were held to accommodate the large number of entrants from the six New England states. In these classes the judges looked at how well the competitors handled themselves and their animals in the show ring. Local 4-Hers placed as follows in their respective fitting and showing classes: SENIORS: Group A: Abigail Reen, Lincoln (second); Ellie Ramirez-Richer, Shelburne (second) Group D: Brianna VanderWey (ninth) and Averi Salley (tenth), both from Ferrisburgh See BIG E » pg. 2

MIDDLEBURY | Numbering in the hundreds, students from Middlebury College, as well as those from local middle and high schools, assembled peacefully in College Park in downtown Middlebury on Sept. 20 for the international Climate Strike. Holding up slogan posters, Earth Day flags, local residents also joined-in with students in their desire to bring increased awareness to climate change by stopping the use of fossil fuels. The global strike, inspired by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, was coordinated in Middlebur y by the Middlebury College campus Sunday Night Environmental Group. Area students, teachers and other local residents took part. A similar climate strike action took place internationally in 2015. The Middlebury portion of the international Climate Strike had various environmental and social-justice groups backing it.

The adult climate strike coalition in Vermont, and elsewhere in the U.S., was coordinated by Bill McKibben’s 350.org and March On organizations. The Middlebury event, which saw similar public gatherings take place across the state, kicked off what promised to be a week of action to publicize what strikers perceive to be a planet-wide climate crisis. Chanting, “We are unstoppable, another world is possible,” students of the college’s Sunday Night Environmental Group, led the strikers assembled in College Park. The Sunday Night Environmental Group promotes climate justice on the campus of the “little Ivy League” liberal arts college; it was instrumental in organizing the local strike. “Welcome to the Middlebury Climate Strike; this is so amusing” one of the Group’s student organizers said. “Today is the coalescence of a year’s worth of student walk-outs and student strikes for climate justice. We’re standing in solidarity here with students and workers around the world... See CLIMATE STRIKE » pg. 2

Vermont Electric Cooperative (VEC) is now offering a $250 bill credit to members who purchase a Level II electric vehicle charger.

Climate Striker
To the editor: The climate strike on the Eagle’s front page? You beat the Wall Street Journal by two days! Well done. In years ahead, Vermonters will marvel that even a dwindling number of acolytes paid attention in 2019 to climate huff-puffery from the “True North”. Because it’s Vermont’s innovators, including many Eagle readers, who are already on the cutting edge: the 100s of folks installing cost-saving solar panels and electric heat pumps are just one sign of what’s to come. As our nation moves toward an economy that works for all, who can doubt that Vermonters, as ever, will take the lead?

The exhibition “Conjuring the Dead: Spirit Art in the Age of Radical Reform”, on view through Jan. 11, 2020, at the Sheldon Museum of Vermont History in downtown Middlebury, will present spirit photographs and original spirit drawings from the museum’s collections acquired by Solomon Wright Jewett (1808-94). Jewett, born and raised in Weybridge, became a sheep farmer and legislator in the 1800s. Jewett was a believer in Spiritualism. In time, he began to call himself a “Shepherd of Vermont and California”, “Indian Healer”, and “Doctor of Magnetism”. He claimed supernatural powers could cure ailments and bring people back from dead.

This looks like the largest mobilization for climate justice ever; it’s huge and exciting. But any effort of climate justice must stand for decolonization, prioritizing racial justice, native resistance, liberty and self-determination. We’re standing here on stolen Abenaki ground. Let’s hold a moment of silence. We demand an end to fossil fuels... I want to quote Bill McKibben: ‘Strike because the people who did the least to cause this crisis suffer

“We’re thrilled to celebrate the Middlebury Performing Arts Series’ 100th anniversary season in 20192020,” according to Liza Sacheli director of the Mahaney Arts Center. The comments appear on the Performing Arts Series website. “Our centennial season toasts the return of some of our favorite artists from the past while also inviting new voices that will take us well into the future. “Our anniversary coincides with other milestones that are reflected in the programming—commemorating Beethoven’s 250th birth year and
raising women’s voices in honor of the 100th anniversary of women’s right to vote—plus we’ll premiere new works, debut new artists, and connect with performers vital to the series’ development. “The Performing Arts Series enhances Middlebury’s curriculum and ignites cultural and creative exploration by presenting a diverse spectrum of world-class performances and residencies for the greater Middlebury community.” According to Coyne and Sacheli, in the spring of 1919, the Middlebury College trustees had a vision for an entertainment and lecture series

Snake Mountain Cruisers raise funds for Camp Ta-Kum-Ta. By Lou Varricchio STAFF WRITER
BRISTOL | The annual Better L8 Than Never Car Show, also known as the Bristol Auto Show, was held Sept. 23 in the Bristol recreational field. The popular, annual event is cohosted by the Addison County Chamber of Commerce and the Snake Mountain Cruisers car club. Bruce Many, president of the Cruisers, said that he estimated over 350 attendees this year when compared to 300 at last year’s event. “It gets better and better each year,” he said. He noted that the return of new categories, for modern and foreign “tuner” cars; these categories help attract even more participants including younger people who don’t have the funds for maintaining rare and classic vehicles. “It was a big success. We had a record breaking number of vehicles and raised funds for Camp Ta-Kum-Ta,” according to Many. Representatives from Vermont’s Camp Ta-Kum-Ta, including Miss Teen Vermont Danielle Trottier ,(see photo), were on hand to accept generous donations from car show attendees. Camp Ta-Kum-Ta provides challenging, extraordinary experiences in a safe and loving environment for children who have or have had cancer and their families. The camp exists for Vermont and northern New York children, (including other out-of-state children who are treated in Vermont), at no cost to their families. Included in this year’s auto show were various trophy winning categories: Best in Show, Modern Muscle Class, Tuner Class, Snake Mt. Cruisers Host Club Winner, Camp Ta-Kum-Ta Choice, Shoreham Upholstery Best Interior Award, Club Participation Award, and Top 30 Winners. Antique car owner and exhibitor Benji Benjamin of Bristol said he’s a faithful attendee with his 1931 Ford Coupe. “I wouldn’t miss this event for the world,” he said. The names of show winners were not available at press time; they will be published in next week’s issue of the Eagle. ■

FALL H ME IMPROVEMENT Easy ways to clean up leaves
A
utumn is marked by colorful foliage and plummeting temperatures. Once those leaves reach peak color, they fall from the branches and collect on lawns, necessitating cleanup projects. For homeowners with big yards, such a project can be tiring and time-consuming. However, there are ways to make leaf cleanup easier. One of the easiest ways to clean up leaves is to reach for a lawn mower rather than a rake. The mower will cut leaves down to smaller
sizes, creating an effective mulch that can add nutrients back into the lawn. Davey, a lawn and landscape solutions service, says that mowed leaves also can be collected in a mower bag and added to garden beds or compost piles. For those who prefer manual raking, select a rake with tines that will not skewer the leaves in the process. Big rakes also can make faster work of gathering leaves into piles.
What causes curled ~T : ~ shingles? BATHS TUB&SHOWER REPLACEMENTS
The home improvement resource The Family Handyman advocates for the use of a lawn sweeper. This is a manual device that has a rotating sweeping brush that gathers up lawn debris and leaves into an attached hopper bag. Like mowed leaves, the bag can be emptied into a compost pile or distributed where needed.

Raking leaves onto a large tarp is another option. Once it’s full, the tarp can be taken to the curb where many towns will collect the
Leaves will fall in autumn, but luckily homeowners have various methods at their disposal to tame the mess. ■
No homeowner wants to look at the exterior of his or her home and see roof damage. Such damage may lead homeowners to think they need a new roof, a potentially costly expense that can quickly throw household budgets into a state of disarray. According to the HomeAdvisor, the average homeowner spends a little more than $7,600 installing a new roof. Various factors, including the size of a home and the type of roof homeowners prefer, will affect the cost of a roof replacement. In addition, homeowners who see roof damage can rest assured that not all roof problems will necessarily require a replacement roof to be installed. Curled shingles are a problem many homeowners have encountered. This particular problem is not always indicative that a roof is on its way out. In fact, the home improvement resource This Old House notes that, as asphalt shingles age, their corners often begin to curl downward or upward. Homeowners who notice this early enough can glue down the curled section of each shingle that’s beginning to curl. Some shingles may be curling because they’re defective. Fortified Roofing, a New Jersey-based roofing company that specializes in the repairing and replacing of various

roofing configurations, advises homeowners to contact a local roofing professional to diagnose the cause of the curling. Doing so quickly can prevent curled shingles from contributing to more widespread damage. Moisture and poor ventilation may be contributing to curled shingles as well. Homeowners with attics in their home may see curled shingles on their roofs because moisture is building up in their poorly ventilated attics. In addition to causing damage such as curled shingles, a poorly ventilated attic allows moisture to build up, potentially contributing to mold growth. Mold presents a host of additional problems, including some that can adversely affect the health of a home’s inhabitants. Improper roof installation also may be the culprit behind curled shingles. When a roof is not installed correctly, shingles may not be aligned or nailed down in the right way. This might be what’s causing shingles to curl on recently installed roofs. Curled shingles are unsightly and can pose a significant threat to a home if not addressed promptly. Homeowners can protect themselves and their roofs by working with skilled roofing professionals, who can diagnose issues like curled shingles and offer the right solutions. ■

Furniture storage/display opportunities Cabinet Hardware Jig makes it easy to install knobs and pulls on drawers and doors.
Finding more space to store and display all the “stuff” used for day-to-day living, as well as life’s pleasures, can be an adventure that ends with everything in its perfect place. Woodcraft can help you with a few ideas to kick-start your space hunt and then suggestions for tools and supplies to make your storage projects successful.
SHORTCUTS & SAFETY To save time when building drawers, check out the Ready-to-Use Prefinished Birch Drawer Sides at Woodcraft. For some really madeto-order storage units, use WoodRiver Cubby Cube Connectors. Available in three configurations — cross-brackets, T-brackets or L-brackets —these handy connectors allow for quick and easy construction of multiple cube storage using 3⁄4”-thick material in any size you need.
Small tables with enclosed storage underneath, chests and trunks that provide seating, benches with builtin storage, beds with built-in space underneath or in the headboard, and kitchen islands with concealed nooks are all options to manage “stuff.” In the kitchen, add drawers to the space (toe-kick) beneath lower cabinets to store rarely used items. Shelving and bookcases, either builtin or freestanding/open or enclosed, will transform unused wall areas or sections of large closets into instant storage for a wide range of items. Nooks cut out of the wall and covered by pictures offer one of many concealed storage options that also include nooks or drawers in the sides of enclosed staircases. The ideas for storage and display projects are endless and can be found through Internet searches and on Woodcraft.com in books like “Stanley Built-Ins & Storage” by David Schiff, in the Woodcraft blog, and in free videos and articles.
PLAN FOR PAINTING UP FRONT “When choosing where to develop storage and display space, you have the opportunity to rethink the colors in rooms where changes will be made,” Woodcraft Public Relations Manager and blogger Lori Harper said. “By using paint in building, buying or repurposing stor-
age pieces, you can change or supplement an existing color palette.” Woodcraft stocks a wide selection of finishing and paint products, including the versatile General Finishes Milk Paint, General Finishes Flat Out Flat Topcoat, Black Dog Salvage Furniture Paint, and Black Dog Salvage Guard Dog and Show Dog Topcoats.
BUILDING MADE EASY Pocket-hole joinery is a quick, easy way to join wood pieces for building projects. Kreg makes it simple with a pocket-hole jig for every application to create very strong joints. Check out Festool’s CXS Compact Drill Driver Set for drilling pocket holes and adding pocket screws, as well as handling other day-to-day drilling and driving challenges with comfort. Tight spaces, dark spots, and corners are no
match for it. For projects that require using nearly invisible fasteners, the industrial strength Grex 23-gauge Headless Pinner leaves only the tiniest of entry holes, making it ideally suited for finishing work, detailed woodworking, light wood assembly, decorative trim, dowel and joint pinning, and picture frame assembly. To provide air pressure for the pinner, Rolair’s JC10PLUS Compressor is a good choice. The oilless machine features a 1 HP, single-stage, two-cylinder motor/pump and a stainless steel reed valve that runs on low RPM for optimum quiet operation. Building drawers is easy with the Kreg Drawer Slide Jig that supports drawer boxes while mounting slides to the drawer. The jig works with ball-bearing, epoxycoated, and undermount slides for perfect positioning
every time. Whether you’re boring shelf pin holes in a new entertainment center or adding adjustable shelving
in an existing cabinet, the Kreg Shelf Pin Jig will help you get the job done quickly and accurately. The Kreg

NOW OFFERING HEAT PUMPS AND WHOLE HOUSE BATTERIES Bristol Electronics is proud to announce that they are a factory authorized & trained installer of Fujitsu cold climate heat pumps and Sonnen whole house batteries. If you have been considering solar, heat pumps or whole house batteries, please give us a call to discuss your options.
Homeowners Recommendations For over 20 years we have had a goal of owning a solar system. Bristol Electronics helped us to reach that goal by installing a (16) panel system. All of our goals were met. The price was right. The installation and quality of work was professional. Most importantly, we have not had to pay an electric bill since the installation. Chris mentioned that I could use a roof rake to remove snow from my array but I taped a cloth mop to a 20’ closet rod that I had hanging around. I store it under the array and when the array is covered with snow I use it to gently brush the panels off. My array starts producing power quicker and I am very happy with my electric bills. If we buy the electric car that we have been thinking about, we will have Bristol Electronics return and add to our system, and cover the cost of the added electricity. Solar has been a good investment for us.
John & Beverly Teer – Monkton, VT When I made the decision to install solar panels to power my small farm and residence, there was no doubt that I would turn to Bristol Electronics for help. Having worked with Chris and her team for satellite television service, I was confident that the same professionalism, expertise, quality workmanship, competitive price structure, prompt and courteous service, and continued support would be forthcoming. Such was the case and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the result.

Knight joins Vermont Futures Project By Lou Varricchio EDITOR
MIDDLEBURY | Wendy Knight, a resident of Addison County and the current chief marketing officer for Knight Wendy Knight. Photo provided Automotive, a family-owned business, was named to the Vermont Futures Project Board of Directors last month. As commissioner of Vermont Tourism and Marketing since 2017, Knight directed a 10-person marketing team to promote Vermont as a place to live, work and visit. She designed and implemented a first-in-nation economic development tourism program (“Stay to Stay Weekends”) aimed at encouraging visitors to become full-time residents, which is part of the Scott Administration’s innovative talent attraction efforts that has resulted in extensive national media coverage and the successful relocation of new residents. During her term as commissioner, Knight also served as the vice chairwoman of the Vermont Outdoor Recreation Economic Collaborative. She is a graduate of Cornell University. “Attracting new workers is essential to growing our economy,” Knight said. “I’m thrilled to join the VFP board and hope that my public sector experience and communications expertise can support their mission of making economic growth a priority for Vermont.” ■

The historic “Aluminum Overcast”, a World War II-era B-17 Flying Fortress owned by the EAA-Experimental Aircraft Association of Wisconsin, arrived at the Southern Vermont Rutland Airport last weekend. The antique bomber was seen over Addison County on Sept. 22 en route to Keene, New Hampshire. On the way, the B-17 tipped its wings over the Monkton farm of 99-year-old B-17 veteran pilot Roger Layn. Layn was unable to make the special flight, but EAA pilot Rex Gray made a special fly-over especially for the World War II vet. Photo by Lou Varricchio

~tain Hollow~ I am Cha Cha and I am hoping to dance my way into your heart. I arrived at RCHS on Aug. 23 from a busy shelter in Georgia. I am a super fun southern belle with lots of personality. I like to take walks, play with squeaky toys or just curl up on your lap and watch a little TV. I do tend to get excited and when I do I can be a little nippy, so I would prefer a home with no children. As with older guys like myself I do have a couple of minor health issues my new family will want to keep an eye on. When you take me for a walk you may see me favoring my left hind leg. I did make a visit to the vet

I am Zeus, King of the Shelter. Just kidding. I do like it here though they have tons of toys. I was brought in by my owner on Aug. 10 because where they lived doesn’t allow dogs anymore. I’m a high energy Pitbull who will need lots of play time. I tend to love my toys so much that I tear them up so I see a shopping trip in the near future. I also love to prance around and chase butterflies. The nice people here have caught me doing it quite a bit and it always get a giggle. I have had some unpleasant encounter with other dogs here. So I may be happier in a home by myself. I have no idea how I’d be with cats since I’ve never met one. If I sound like the bundle of energy you’d want to take home then come see me at Rutland County Humane Society. ■
