Officials discuss commerce on town property From Staff & News Reports

MIDDLEBURY — It wasn’t exactly a business friendly mood at the Middlebury Select Board public hearing Oct. 25. The Board set out to discuss proposed updates to its vending ordinance, now renamed “An Ordinance to Regulate Commercial Activity on Public Property.”

Opening the hearing for public comment, Board chairman Brian Carpenter said that the proposed ordinance update shifts the focus from regulating the conduct of certain types of street-level commercial activities to a general prohibition against all commercial activity of any kind on all public property and rights-of-way within Middlebury’s geographic boundaries.

Carpenter noted that, while the new language is intended to make clear the town’s position regarding the use of public spaces for commercial activity specifically, it does not regulate such activity on private property nor does it preclude the Select Board from writing and adopting future ordinances to address allowable uses of town-owned land.

Board member Donna Donahue, who worked on the draft ordinance, added that the proposed changes are focused primarily on public safety and creating rules regardContinued on page 9

Astronomers restore classic telescope

By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com

CASTLETON — There are few scientific areas where amateurs still can make serious contributions. The fields of meteorology, paleontology and astronomy are the sciences which come to mind.

For example, amateur weather buffs record vital data and make one-of-a-kind environmental observations, amateur fossil hunters discover new species on a regular basis, and amateur astronomers not only discover new asteroids and comets, they also help build important optical and electronic instruments for studying space.

Now, thanks to a group of Rutland-area amateur astronomers, known as the Green Mountain Alliance of Amateur Astronomers (GMAAA), a derelict campus telescope has been restored and returned to its original design purpose—a delicate instrument for studying the Moon, planets and a host of deep-space celestial objects.

GMAAA President Ron Lewis of Brandon, along with fellow astronomers Patrick Porch and Cale Shipman, became the leaders of a backyard effort to restore an underutilized 1960svintage refractor on the campus of Castleton University.

According to telescope collector and amateur astronomer Dave Komar of Culpepper, Va., the Rutland County astronoContinued on page 16

Ballot error could lead to revote in Rutland

Ronald “Bushey” Boucher

RUTLAND — Staff members of Vermont’s Office of the Secretary of State are racing against the clock to send out 606 corrected absentee and early voter ballots because the name of a Republican candidate for the state House of Representatives was listed incorrectly.

Ronald “Bushey” Boucher notified state officials Monday that his name had been misprinted on ballots for the two-seat Rutland-2 district. The name appeared as “Ron Boucher.” Boucher had requested on his Certificate of Nomination in April that his name be printed as “Ronald “Bushey” Boucher. His last name is pronounced “bushy.”

“People know me as ‘Bushey.’ It’s on all my [campaign materials]. This is a serious error.

People can’t even find my name in the phone book, so how will they know who I am on the ballot?” he told Watchdog.

Boucher’s name was correct on the primary ballot, as well as on a second category in the general election. Boucher is running for the Vermont House of Representatives as well as the local office of Wallingford’s justice of the peace.

Will Senning, director of elections and campaign finance in the Secretary of State’s office, said he is not sure how the mistake was made. “We’re still determining if it was a human error or a software error in the computer system,” he told Watchdog.

Boucher said he was happy with election officials’ quick response. The Secretary of State’s office was notified of the error on Continued on page 14

Mountain crossings at Appalachian Gap

By Lou Varricchio

lou@suncommunitynews.com

BRISTOL — When it comes to making the Appalachian Gap crossing—from Addison County, through a southern sliver of Chittenden County, and on into Washington County—Vermont’s Route 17 may be the shortest distance between geographic points.

The approximately 12-mile-long route over Vermont’s rugged mountain terrain is fun to do during summer and autumn months, but it can be hairy during the winter months depending on ice and snow cover.

Climbing up the western sloe of the mountain from Bristol, then turning northeast off of Route 116, Route 17 climbs to Appalachian Gap then descends, in a series of switchbacks, to Mad River Glen and on to Route 100 in Waitsfield.

The highway, a mud bog before it was paved during the 1960s, is an exhilarating passage over the steep front of the Green Mountain range.

Enroute, the driver passes through forestland, meadows, and even a moose-frequented bog—with glimpses of steep cliffs, deep ravines and roaring brooks.

Once known as McCullough Turnpike, the road was built in When it opened in 1958, cars sloshed through the muddy road surface of what is today Vermont‘s Route 17 over Appalachian Gap to Mad River Glen.

Prior to World War II, Vermont State Forester Perry Merrill enlisted unemployed Vermont men through the U.S. Civilian Conservation Corps. He spearheaded a project that began hewing a roadway out of the Green Mountain wilderness. It would take 25 years before the road was completed over the mountains.

The first phase of the road plan was to connect Route 100 with the Mad River Glen ski area to help promote the local economy.

The original leg of the turnpike started on the eastern slope of the mountain in 1933.

It took longer than planned to run a dirt route over the ridge via Appalachian Gap—the narrow pass between the Champlain and Mad River valleys—and down slope to the Bristol area.

Work on the road was completed by 1958.

For those old enough to remember, at least in the days before the turnpike was paved, the route was muddy in the spring and a slip-and-slide adventure in winter, at least until the road closed for the winter.

Asphalt paving finally made the highway easier to maintain and keep clear of ice and snow.

No matter, it’s no small task to keep Route 17 open during Vermont’s long winter nap; warning signs to drivers about winter driving hazards are aplenty. But it’s really the hardworking highway crews that deserve kudos for keeping the valleys connected for at least half the year—rain, sleet, snow or sunshine.

The gap also attracts R.V. tourists, leaf peepers, and motorcyclists during the fairer months for the sterling view. From the top of the gap, the high peaks of the Adirondacks stand like a distant wall on the western horizon. The pass is actually inside the boundaries of Camel’s Hump State Park.

“On the east side, Appalachian Gap is drained by Mill Brook, which drains into the Mad River, the Winooski River, and into Lake Champlain,” according to the Vermont State Parks website. “To the west, the gap is drained by Beaver Meadow Brook, which drains into the Huntington River, another tributary of the Winooski River. Lake Champlain drains into the Richelieu River in Quebec, thence into the Saint Lawrence River, and into the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.”

Commuters make up a good part of the travelers on today’s Route 17 as is evident by busy carpool parking lots on both sides of the gap. There’s even talk of an E.V. charging station for hikers and commuters over the gap.

Starksboro center’s youth wilderness camp

By Lou Varricchio

lou@suncommunitynews.com

STARKSBORO — The non-profit Common Ground Center has been recognized for its wilderness-based winter vacation camps on its 700-acre site in Starksboro for stidents from the counties of Addison and Chittenden.

Last year, the two-day program was opened to students in third to sixth grades and included activities such as snowshoeing, animal tracking, snow shelter building, sledding, nature crafts and of course hot cocoa.

Participants learned to identify signs of wildlife such as porcupine, bobcat and deer under the supervision of experienced outdoor education professionals. CGC is uniquely positioned to offer such a program again with a comfortable solar-heated lodge just a short walk away from trailheads leading to hundreds of acres of trails and animal habitat.

“Kids love exploring and playing in our forests and fields, and we have a lot of fun revealing all the magic that nature has to offer,” Emily Gibbs, CGC program coordinator, told the Eagle last year. “If your child loves to play in the snow this is the camp for them.”

Common Ground Center was founded in 1994 as an inter generational summer family camp program focused on nature, arts, music, wellness community and fun. The Center has since expanded to offer year-round school field trips programs and facility rentals.

Last year was the first year that Common Ground Center made its unique offerings available directly to Addison and Chittenden youth. In an effort to make registration as hasslefree as possible, families registered for the program through Common Ground Center or via the Bristol, Hinesburg, Shelburne, Williston, Charlotte and South Burlington recreation departments last year.

“Parents have to solve practical childcare questions during school breaks and we thought we could lend a hand while offering something really different and exciting” said Connor Timmons, CGC executive director, “So many kids spend a lot

of their vacation week indoors or in front of a screen; we’re hoping to change that.”

For details about this season’s activities, contact the Common Ground Center office at 802-453-2592.

Invoking the Fifth, yet again

A

few weeks ago in this editorial space, we told you about Judicial Watch’s case against U.S. presidential candidate and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. We weren’t surprised that this case received scant attention in the mainstream media.

No matter, we promised to update our readers on the progress of this Washington, D.C., U.S. District Court lawsuit.

Back in August, U.S. Judge Emmet Sullivan granted Judicial Watch’s request to depose both Mrs. Clinton and a former State Department official regarding Clinton’s non-state.gov e-mail system The deposed State Depart official John Bentel, the ex-director of information resource management, was ordered

by Judge Sullivan thanks to the tireless efforts of the judicial watchdog group.

The Eagle learned last week that yet another witness in the troubling Clinton e-mail matter asserted his Fifth Amendment rights during a Judicial Watch deposition Oct. 24.

Bentel answered over 90 questions with the all-too-familiar Clintonian phrase, “On advice from my legal counsel, I decline to answer the question and I invoke my Fifth Amendment rights.”

According to Judicial Watch, “Bentel, on advice of Obama Justice Department and personal counsel, refused to answer any questions about whether Hillary Clinton was paying his legal fees, offered him employment, or other financial incentives.”

Judicial Watch deposed seven former Clinton top aides and current State Department officials, including Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin.

Last week, and under oath, Mrs. Clinton answered Judicial Watch’s question regarding her non-government e-mail system. Not much came to light that hasn’t been said before using clever phrasings and the usual “I don’t recalls”.

“The fact that yet another State Department official took the Fifth highlights the disturbing implication that criminal acts took place related to the Clinton e-mail and our Freedom of Information Act requests,” Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton told the Eagle.

What more can we say about Mrs. Clinton’s obvious malfeasance and betrayal of the public’s trust?

Current polls indicate that the former First Lady may become our next President—but only if voters don’t wake up in the nick of time to pull a different lever on election day.

Let’s not forget that there are seven other candidate choices—with more than 15 percent of general election ballots—for U.S. President in 2016.

Letters

PutinÕ sÊ responseÊ toÊ HillaryÊ ClintonÊ To the Editor: Frank Pagano’s letter makes good sense, really, calling Clinton on ill-founded statements.

Except for his second and last paragraphs.

Given Mr. Pagano’s appeal for proper use of reasoning in drawing conclusions, characterizations like “recklessly provoking a nuclear-armed adversary”; “a conflict with Russia” and “the ad hominem attack on Russia was irresponsible and dangerous” are a bit of the kettle calling the pot black, yes?

Putin is supposed to watch Clinton and be thinking, “Oh, I am so mad at her talking nasty about us: I’m going to get even with her by dropping a bomb somewhere?”

Nightmare over, or just beginning

M

any feel that as this election nears the national nightmare will soon be over and life can get back to “normal”, if there is such a thing.

I like to be positive about things but I fear the nightmare may only get worse, regardless of who is elected.

We know both candidates are Dan Alexander flawed. We know both have very Thoughts from high negatives with the public.

Behind the Pressline And we know our population is split on just who is worse.

Therefore, I’m not sure either candidate will be the primary instigator of the new nightmare, but instead I think, like most nightmares, it will be self imposed.

We’ve allowed ourselves to paint the candidate of our choice as a saint and the candidate we opposed to be Satan himself/herself.

Unless we “let the election go” once it’s over, accept the new president as our Commander and Chief, we will make life even more of a nightmare by not accepting the wish of the majority.

We hear of some who have threatened to leave the country, some are threatening a civil war and others vow civil disobedience.

The reality is most candidates fail to deliver on their promises.

So much of what you think either candidate will do may never come about or it won’t receive congressional approval, even if they try.

Our nation and her people are strong. We’ve survived poor administrations before, but if we allow ourselves to become further polarized, we will have allowed the politicians to change who we are, from a united nation to a country that no longer respects the rule of law.

It’s imperative that we the people never allow our politics or political leaders to pit us against each other, to the point of taking to the streets. As citizens we must demand greater transparency in government and be more aware of fact from fiction.

We must demand a non-partisan media or information center that helps keep us truly informed. It’s the only way we can keep an ever growing government completely in check.

If we as citizens fail in our civic role we risk great peril and uncertainty for future generations.

When you go to the polls next week choose wisely and may God Bless America.

Season of thanks, helping begins in Ferrisburgh

By Lou Varricchio

lou@suncommunitynews.com

FERRSIBURGH — The holiday season is coming early in the Ferrisburgh area this year and it is most apparent at the North Ferrisburgh United Methodist Chruch. For local church members, ‘tis the season of giving not receiving—and the sooner it starts, the better.

Church attendees enjoy several ways of giving back as the best way their expression of faith can celebrate the birth of Jesus.

This means thinking of community residents needing the most encouragement.

First, church members start with their annual new towel set donations designed for the HOPE Christmas Shop in Middlebury.

“This year we gathered the most towel sets ever—over 50 sets,” according to Christine Steadman, the North Ferrisburgh UMC’s administrative assistant. “The women of the church decorate the towel sets with festive ribbon and bath supplies. We know that families who cannot otherwise afford to purchase a gift at Christmas will get to choose a beautiful towel set for loved ones from the HOPE Christmas shop.”

Steadman noted that members also prepare to gather nutritious food items for Addison County families in need and who will not have a Thanksgiving meal without North Ferrisburgh UMC’s help.

“We finish up with gifts for over 30 children and teens in need,” according to Steadman.

“For the Thanksgiving meals and the gifts for youth in need we work with a local Addison county social worker,” she noted. “Our church families will take their children shop-

ping for a child of similar age and our youth will purchase gifts for teens in need. Last year, when our social worker delivered the socks, warm hat and other items the church teens had picked out. The teen who received the gifts was amazed. ‘These are so cool,’ he exclaimed. We find that the teens know just what a fellow teen would enjoy. Christmas

comes early for us because we find joy in helping others in this season of love.”

The North Ferrisburgh UMC’s craft group makes fleece lap robes and then collects other items so every church shut-in receives a Christmas gift.

“We do intergenerational Christmas caroling at our local nursing homes, too,” accord-

ing to Steadman. “Christmas is a great time to encourage others.”

CSJ’s Perry Evergreen Slate acquires N.Y. operation named Coach of the Year

By Lou Varricchio

lou@suncommunitynews.com

RUTLAND — College of St. Joseph’s women’s soccer head coach Teresa Perry has been named Yankee Small College Conference Coach of the Year.

The first-year coach brought her strong values and work ethic to practice and games every day, teaching her studentathletes that success is not just measured in wins and losses.

Perry’s leadership and drive will be paramount in the success of the women’s soccer program going forward.

Perry, a CSJ alumna, joined the College’s new program in spring 2016, bringing years of experience coaching at both the collegiate and high school levels.

Prior to taking the helm at CSJ, Perry was the assistant coach at nearby Green Mountain College, an NCAA Division III school.

POULTNEY — Evergreen Slate Co., Inc., the largest domestic slate company in the USA—operating a large quarry located in Poultney, Vt.—has acquired the Vermont Natural Colored Stone operation from R.J. Finlay & Co. According a business news statement by Evergreen Oct. 27, the purchase includes New York quarries, a mill, and block storage buildings developed by Vic Genier.

The new acquisition also includes quarries and farmlands known as the McGann Farm which connect the Granville, N.Y., area slate properties to Evergreen’s Calder Quarry in Poultney.

Evergreen officials said that they believe the 2016 acquisition is the largest “contiguous producing properties” in the slate belt which straddles the southwestern corner of Rutland County, Vt., and Washington County, N.Y. Evergreen officials said that R.J. Finlay is a new shareholder.

Daniel Monfried, president and CEO of R.J. Finlay said, “This continues our investment in New England... (and the) building material businesses. We are supporters of Evergreen’s efforts to bring more slate and related-building materials under a common ownership umbrella and look forward to a great partnership.”

According to Evergreen Sales Manager Philip Prehoda, “These properties generated several million dollars per year in annual revenue when they were fully operating, and we look forward to restoring them to that level...”

In 2012, Evergreen began an architects and facilities managers initiative. The effort involved slate-roof contractors and focused on the design and specification of natural stone in projects around the USA, as well as the quarrying and milling natural stone.

Vermont’s first African-American candidate for Lt. Gov. speaks

By Lou Varricchio

lou@suncommunitynews.com

MIDDLEBURY —Randolph “Randy” Brock III, 73, is among Vermont’s most visible and articulate Republicans. A long-time and respected public figure in the Green Mountain State, Brock served as the Vermont auditor of accounts (2005-2007), as a member of the Vermont Senate (2009-2013), and was the 2012 nominee for governor of Vermont, losing to Gov. Peter Shumlin (D).

This year, Brock is running for the lieutenant governor seat against controversial State Sen. David Zuckerman (D).

Naturally, the race for lieutenant governor hasn’t received the level of coverage as the race for governor, but there’s clear tension between the two opposing candidates as evidenced by recent commercials aired by both the Brock and Zuckerman campaigns.

The Eagle interviewed Brock recently regarding the campaign and how it’s shaping up in the remaining weeks before Election Day. The Eagle: Your radio ads, for example, are pretty stern about your opponent’s cavalier use of “racism” and humor in various campaign-related discussions. Could you explain your concerns?

Brock: David Zuckerman has had to apologize intemperate and immature statements made throughout this campaign, most recently when he diminished the efforts of the Vermont Air National Guard in the hours following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. He made anti-Semitic remarks and furthered hurtful stereotypes and constantly shown a lack of understanding and a desire to use the difficult and sensitive issue of racism to curry political favor in this campaign.

Earlier this fall, David hosted a party to talk about racism. He promised “music,” “a good time” and a “cash bar” and used the event to pass out campaign signs and literature. He also allowed a paid campaign staffer to circulate allegations of racism against me, personally.

I, personally, have felt the sharp pain of racism. I know what it’s like to be sent to the back of the bus and forced to drink out of a “colored” water fountain. To play politics with race is unacceptable. His actions were offensive, demeaning and downright inappropriate of anyone who seeks public office.

The Eagle: If elected lieutenant governor, would be your top-5 “go to” issues for your office? What would you like to accomplish in your first term?

Brock: I’ve said throughout this campaign that my focus would be squarely on creating a vibrant economy here in Vermont and working to create more and better paying jobs.

We need to change the attitude of government. Vermont is open for business. Tone a the tope and tone at the middle is very important. Working with businesses, not against them. Having an ongoing dialogue with our employers and understanding what can make our state less competitive are

Randy Brock important tasks that I’d be uniquely qualified to do on behalf of Vermonters.

We need to modernize state government by promoting innovation from within to reengineer, streamline, remove layers and empower state employees so we’re getting better return on investment for our tax dollars.

Finally, we need greater transparency and accountability in government. We need look no further than the disastrous management of Vermont Health Connect to understand that mismanagement not only wastes tax dollars, but it puts Vermonters at risk. State government needs to be held accountable for its actions.

The Eagle: If you serve under a Democrat governor, how would that work? Would you be a rubber stamp? How can a lieutenant governor, block an opposing governor’s agenda if it truly challenges your core beliefs?

Brock: In either case, if elected I’ll reach out and work with our next governor on the important issues that are facing Vermonters. The official role of lieutenant governor is fairly narrow, which allows for greater freedom to advocate

for specific policy initiatives. I’ll speak out when I feel a certain policy needs better scrutiny, and I’ll speak up and be counted when I feel something deserves my support. I will not be a rubber stamp for any governor, as the lieutenant governor is elected independently and therefore carries its own mandate from Vermonters.

The Eagle: How does the role of Vermont Lt. Gov. resemble or differ from other lieutenant governors.in our neighboring states?

Brock: The role of lieutenant governor varies substantially. Some have two year terms, some have four. Some run independently of the governor like we do here in Vermont, while some run as a ticket with their party’s nominee. Some have great power, like in Texas, while some states don’t have one at all. In Vermont, official duties are simple: preside over the Vermont Senate, and in the case of an emergency or tragedy, step in to assume the role of Governor.

The Eagle: In what ways has the Shumlin administration either helped or hindered business development in the state?

Brock: From the push for universal health care, to growing regulations and mandates on businesses; from the dysfunction of Vermont Health connect to an ever-rising taxes and fees, the current administration has adopted policies that hinder Vermont businesses.

Perhaps most detrimental is the uncertainty that has been created over these last few years. Vermonters and employers need to be able to understand what’s ahead, yet with each passing session those challenges change due in large part to anti-growth, tax and spend agenda of the legislature. From permitting, to regulation to mandates–Vermonters need a break.

The Eagle: How new things would Lt. Gov. Brock bring to the office?

Brock: I would continue a long tradition of competence, probity and integrity in the office of lieutenant governor. I’d preside over the Senate fairly and without bias, and I’d work closely with legislators and the administration to work to build a vibrant economy for our future. I’d work to bring new businesses here to Vermont by serving as an ambassador to that community and I’d work with state employees to look under the hood of state government to find efficiencies and ways we can better serve the people of Vermont.

I’d serve every day, with an open door and an open mind, because that’s what Vermonters expect and deserve.

The Eagle: Thank you.

Electric Vehicle charging station in Hinesburg HINESBURG — The next generation is embracing electric vehicles. Students in the Money Energy Power class at Champlain Valley Union High School came up with the idea as a 2016 class project to put in an electric vehicle charging station at CVU. The students worked with Green Mountain Power to install the station that is now in service.

GMP’s commitment to a comprehensive statewide EV charging network will help increase Vermont’s energy independence and contribute to cleaner air and lower carbon emissions. GMP has installed charging stations in 31 locations, ten of which have a D.C. Fast Charger.

CVU is the first school to partner with GMP to place a charging station on site. The four who contributed to the project were Burke Spillane, Colin Osbahr, Jack Reynolds and Jarrett Slote.

“CVU students are so aware of the importance of changing how we use energy,” said Glenn Fay, CVU science teacher who worked with the students on this project back in January. “And it is impressive how they take action to change the world. We appreciate GMP partnering to make this a reality.” “ It was so exciting to work on this project and see it come to fruition,” said Burke Spillane who worked on the projct. “This shows we can make a difference, help the environment and build a better world.”

“The location at CVU is perfect for a charging station. Many people work, study or have business at CVU and can conveniently charge their vehicles,” Carlson said. “Everyone wins – the students see how they can be effective, and Vermonters save money and reduce fossil fuel use through GMP’s innovative products and services like these chargers, all while we continue to provide reliable, clean and cost-effective power.”

The charging station at Champlain Valley Union High School serves all electric vehicles including Chevrolets, Toyotas and Nissans (Tesla owners need an adapter) with a dual port level 2 station that provides up to 24 miles of charge per hour.

T he GOLM holds the record for the largest blood drive in American history, collecting 2,350 pints in one day in 2013. The drive transitioned into a 12-day event in 2014.

The GOLM - 12 Days of Giving will be held: Nov. 29 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the home of Castleton University President Dave Wolk; Nov. 30 from noon to 6 p.m. at U.S. Army Reserve on Post Road in Rutland Town; Dec. 2 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Rutland High School; Dec. 3 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the American Legion in Rutland; Dec. 5 from noon to 6 p.m. at West Rutland Town Hall; Dec. 6 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Burr & Burton Academy in Manchester; Dec. 7 from noon to 6 p.m. at Holiday Inn in Rutland Town; Dec. 8 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Dia-

mond Run Mall; Dec. 9 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Fair Haven Union High School; Dec. 10 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Furnace Brook Wesleyan Church in Pittsford; Dec. 12 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Rutland Elks Club; and Dec. 13 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at College of St. Joseph.

The annual drive is organized and sponsored by Castleton University, Green Mountain Power and Catamount Radio.

With the new lineup, the GOLM has seven host communities, and organizers plan to expand to more towns in coming years.

“In addition to saving lives, the GOLM has always been about bringing together the greater-Rutland community,” said GMP Vice President Steve Costello, one of the organizers. “Adding new towns to the lineup gives residents and workers in those communities an opportunity to donate and participate with less travel, and build community bonds where they live and work.”

Catamount Radio’s Terry Jaye, a West Rutland native, said the addition of his hometown last year stoked excitement in the community and drew nearly 100 donors. He’s hoping for another good year in West Rutland, and for solid numbers from Pittsford, which is hosting part of the drive for the first time.

Advocate says distracted driving can be fatal

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

MORIAH — Karen Torres’ father was run over by a distracted driver, and she was at Moriah Central School recently to relate his story to students.

Her voice shaking at times as she described the horrific crash, Torres talked with high-school classes in the school auditorium.

Her father, Pat Mapleson, was a highway worker struck by a distracted driver in a work zone, she said.

“A man was drinking a bottle of water and he dropped it,” Torres said. “He reached over for it.

When he looked up, he’d entered the closed lane in the work zone.

He killed a worker, and that worker was my dad.”

The fatality occurred in 2006, she said, as her father and his crew were filling in potholes on Sunrise Highway in Eastport, New York when a cement truck entered the work zone.

A driver in one of the maintenance trucks saw what was happening and yelled to warn workers.

“My dad ran to the left, literally into the path of the truck,” Torres said, as a photograph of the crash site flashed on the screen behind her. “He (the driver) reached for that water bottle. It was just two seconds.”

Her father was seven months from retirement, she said.

“The last thing he said to me was, ‘I’ll see you Sunday, sweetheart.’

And what’s really hard is that, Sunday, where I saw him next he was in With the truck that killed her father on the screen behind her, Karen Torres told Moriah Central School students about the cement truck his coffin.”

She described the pain she felt that ran him over because the driver reached down for a fallen water bottle. Her father was a State Department of Transportation when she found out what had hapworker filling in potholes.

pened.

“It never goes away, ever,” Torres said.

Students sat in silence as Torres spoke, and showed photographs of the scene.

“It’s so important,” she told students. “Now is when you pick up your bad habits while driving. It can save lives.”

She told students about wrecks caused by people using their cell phones while driving.

Drivers are 20 times more likely to crash while texting, Torres said.

“People are dying,” she said. “You can’t do this while driving. It’s gotten so out of control.”

Torres said she was driving recently and saw a woman with kids in the car eating a bowl of cereal while driving.

“God forbid she’d kill herself and her children,” she said.

Moriah School Superintendent William Larrow said Torres’ talk was enlightening to many students.

“You hear all the time about people who have accidents while texting,” he said.

Torres’ visit was sponsored by the Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee and the National Safety Council.

A Long Island resident, Torres has a website at All4UDad.com that tells what happened to her father.

Traveling from high school to high school, Torres said she’s shared the story of her father’s tragic death with thousands of students.

“This crash was 100 percent preventable and I felt strongly that I needed to do something,” she said.

“I started my own distracted driving awareness program and became a safety advocate and a public speaker.”

Event depicts British retreat from Fort Ticonderoga A Fort Ticonderoga living history program will flash back to 1777

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA – A new living history program at Fort Ticonderoga will showcase British soldiers, loyalists, and Native American allies who were cut off from the rest of the British line after the surrender of British forces at Saratoga in November 1777.

Short of food and supplies, and facing the

inevitable decision to withdraw to Canada, the British and their allies prepared to evacuate Fort Ticonderoga, the “Gibraltar of the North.”

The program is Saturday, Nov. 12 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the fort. A musket demonstration at 11 a.m. will provide military perspective from the loyalist forces.

Programs and demonstrations highlight the weapons, tactics, and trades of the British garrison in the late fall of 1777.

Tours will explore the decision to evacuate the soldiers back to Canada and the choice to destroy Ticonderoga in their wake to leave

nothing useful for Continental Army forces.

“These soldiers, recruited from loyalist refugees, were the eyes and ears of British army along Lake Champlain,” fort Chief Executive Officer Beth Hill said. “Whether New England fowlers, native trade guns, or old French Muskets, we’ll show the arms of the loyalists and discuss fighting for king and country without a home.

Another musket demonstration at 12:30 p.m. will interpret the German Brunswick soldiers. German soldiers made up nearly half of the British army in 1777.

The event will also feature lectures on the

myths of the Hessians in the American Revolution, and explore the story of the soldiers from the Duchy of Brunswick who served at Ticonderoga.

Admission to the event is $10 for the general public and free to Fort Ticonderoga members, Ambassador Pass holders, and children age four and under. For the full event schedule, visit fortticonderoga.org, or call 585-2821.

ABOVE: The “Now Left to Their Own Defense” event will show German and British military re-enactors leaving Fort Ticonderoga. The living history event takes place Saturday, Nov. 12.

Ferry suspends operation early due to low water Low lake levels have forced the ferry to stop

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

SHOREHAM — The low water level at the Ticonderoga Ferry Landing and adjacent State Boat Launch Site has forced the Ticonderoga-Shoreham, Vt. ferry to suspend operations.

Ferry co-owner Alison Matot said the ferry shut down at the end of the day on Oct. 17 due to low lake levels.

“We are sad to say that our season will be ending,” she said.

“We are unable to run due to the low lake level. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.”

The ferry is owned by Michael and Alison Matot, and normally runs from May through the end of October.

But not this year.

“It is terrible,” said Alison, who was the certified operator over the weekend. “I’m having a tough time landing and taking off (Sunday) with six cars on the barge.”

The cable ferry operates on Lake Champlain between Ticonderoga and Shoreham, Vt. On Lake Champlain, which is a foot below normal water level elevations for this time of year, most boat launches currently provide three feet of water depth, but one exception is the Ticonderoga Boat Launch, including the ferry landing, which is currently at just two feet.

Due to the ongoing drought conditions in New York state, many bodies of water are significantly below average water levels for this time of year, according to the state Department of Environmental Conservation.

Elect

While many public boat launches are still useable by shallow draft boats, boaters launching larger, deeper draft boats may have difficulties on many waters, the DEC said recently.

At Bartlett Pond, the water source for the Town of Moriah, the level is also very low.

“We can ask people to conserve; we don’t need to go into a (water usage) ban at this point,” Moriah Town Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said at the latest Town Council meeting.

The town flushed fire hydrants recently, but didn’t do every one, officials said, to conserve water.

Continued from page 1

‘TIS THE SEASON— ‘Tis the season for deer hunting at Vermont Field Sports in Middlebury. The retailer, located on U.S. Route 7 south of downtown, is welcoming local hunters gearing up for archery season-part 2, Dec. 3-11, Youth Deer Weekend Nov. 5-6, rifle season Nov. 12-27, and muzzleloader season Dec. 3-11. Pictured: Field Sports’ Manager Greg Boglioli (left) helps a customer pick out the right accessory for the woods.

Monday, and ballots with the correct name were received by town clerks on Wednesday.

“They’re taking my concern seriously,” said Boucher.

But he said he still might call for a revote if he feels the results are skewed by a lack of time for absentee voters to fill out the corrected ballots.

Boucher would have to protest the matter in Superior Court, and a judge would have to deem that “alleged errors or fraud was sufficient to change the result of the vote,” Senning explained.

Absentee and early voters make up a little more than 10 percent of all registered voters in Rutland-2, comprising Clarendon, Proctor, Tinmouth, Wallingford and West Rutland.

Some corrected ballots were sent to voters by standard mail on Oct. 26, and the rest are following on Thursday. With less than two weeks until the election, Senning said voters

may not be able to return their corrected ballots in time.

However, votes cast for Boucher with the original ballots will still be counted as a vote for him.

This was explained to voters in a letter accompanying the new ballots, which pointed out the misprinting of Boucher’s name. Town clerks will then sort through absentee ballots and replace the original ballot with the corrected version. Absentee packages have an identification card on the inside of the packet, separate from the sealed ballot. This prevents double voting, while keeping the vote itself anonymous.

Terry Burke, the Rutland County Republican chair, said he was discouraged by the error.

“We depend on the state to get these things right... It could be costly,” she said.

Boucher is running in the two-seat district against incumbents Thomas Burditt, R-West Rutland, and Dave Potter, D-Clarendon.

Rutland man arrested linked to Killington robbery

By Lou Varricchio

lou@suncommunitynews.com

RUTLAND — On Oct. 23, Vermont State Police troopers based out of the Rutland Barracks, along with Killington Police Department, responded to a burglary that had occurred in Killington.

Upon arrival, police determined that the home had been broken into while the home owner was inside the residence.

On the following night, police reported that a second burglary had occurred in the same area as the first incident.

Before the second burglary, troopers were able to stop a vehicle seen leaving the area, and obtain a registration number. The vehicle in question then left the scene.

The VSP investigation led to a residence in Rutland City, At the residence police located Coy Hill, 34, of Rutland. Hill was arrested for violation of his conditions of release.

A search warrant was subsequently obtained for the residence. The warrant was executed on Oct. 26 and the items that had been stolen from the burglaries were located.

Hill was charged with two counts of burglary, and one count of burglary to an occupied dwelling. Hill was lodged at Marble Valley correctional center for lack of $25,000 bail.

Whiting man cited

RUTLAND TOWN — On Oct. 30, at approximately 1:54 a.m., troopers from the Vermont State Police Rutland Barracks were dispatched to a motor vehicle crash with injury on Post Road in the Town of Rutland.

Troopers located a 2004 GMC Sierra off the north side of Post Road, against a tree. The truck sustained severe damage to the front bumper area and rear passenger side.

The Vermont Eagle • November 5, 2016 | 15

Investigation revealed Craig Bilodeau, 27, of Whiting, was operating the GMC westbound on Post Road, when he failed to navigate a shape curve, and went off the north side of the roadway.

As a result of the crash, passenger Alexander Bellone sustained a deep laceration to his right eyebrow area, and required transportation to Rutland Regional Medical Center for treatment.

While a trooper was speaking with Bilodeau, he displayed several indicators of impairment.

Bilodeau provided a sample of his breath for a preliminary breath test, that indicated his breath alcohol concentration was 0.111 percent. Bilodeau was subsequently taken into custody for suspicion of DUI and transported to the State Police Barracks in Rutland for processing.

Bilodeau was issued a citation to appear in Rutland Superior Court Criminal Division at a later date and released to a sober party.

Panton fire update

PANTON — On 10-24-16 at approximately 0339 hrs. the Vergennes Fire Department responded to a reported structure fire at 874 VT Route 22A, in Panton, VT. A passerby had called in the fire. Upon the arrival of the first fire personnel, the home was found to be completely engulfed in flames. The home was completely destroyed and partially collapsed during firefighting efforts. Damages are estimated at approximately $150,000. The three occupants were injured in the fire. Harold Neel suffered minor burns. Susan Idle, who was living at the residence, suffered 2nd and 3rd. degree burns and was transported to the University of Vermont Medical Center. Muriel Neel perished in the fire.

The Fire Chief, Jim Burar, contacted the Vermont State Police and requested an origin and cause investigation of the fire. Detectives from the Vermont State Police Fire Investigation Unit along with Investigators from the Division of Fire Safety responded to the scene to conduct the investigation.

Investigators have determined that the fire cause is undetermined at this time and the circumstances not to be suspicious. The fire started at the rear of the residence on an exterior deck. A smoking area was located within this area. The fire spread quickly due to the high wind conditions.

The investigation is ongoing at this time. Anyone with any additional information is asked to call Det./Sgt. Thomas Williams at 802-773-9101 at the Rutland Barracks.

Telescope

Continued from page 1 mers hit a “home run“ with their loving work on restoring the Castleton telescope.

“Castleton is home to a rare, 1960s vintage Unitron Model 620, 6-inch diameter, photo-equatorial refractor,” according to Komar. “It is one of only three complete Model 620s available for public viewing in the world.”

Komar pointed out that the ‘scope’s maker, the Unitron USA telescope company of Commack, N.Y., was founded by Lawrence and Ellen Fine in 1952. The husband and wife team died in an airplane crash in 1978 and most of their early company history apparently died with them.

While the Fine’s company exists today as distributor of microscopes, it still offers a brass telescope model although it is pricey and sold mostly for science-related award ceremonies.

“It all began with the history of Nihon Seiko Kenkyusho, Ltd., the (Japanese) company the Fines selected to supply their telescopes and accessories,” as Komar described it. “Very little has been documented about the company, and from what I have been able to determine... (the telescope side of the Fine’s business) faded quietly into the night (after their death).”

Many astronomers have a “thing” for Unitron telescopes; they were well made devices and continue to retain high market value after disappearing from the market in the 1980s.

“Castleton University’s telescope is also the only Unitron Model 620 with an operational weight driven clock drive,” according to Komar. “This instrument was discovered during NEAF, the Northeast Astronomy Forum, in 2015.”

NEAF is the world’s largest astronomy and space exposition held each April at SUNY Rockland Community College in Suffern, N.Y. “Members of the Green Mountain Alliance of Amateur Astronomers, who are responsible for maintaining the telescope, stopped by the NEAF 2015 classic telescope booth and identified themselves. Later, I had an opportunity to visit and observe with this ‘scope during a trip to Vermont in October...”

During the 2015 academic year, the Vermont astronomers

enthusiasm expressed by not only the Castleton University trustees, but those of other colleges as well,” Komar noted.

“The group’s recent actions has resulted in an increased interest on the part of the school administration,” Komar noted.
