13-year-old boy hit by school bus Police say they don't expect to file charges

Sugarhouses across the state opened their doors for the annual Maple Open House Weekend, including here at Bixby Hill Sugarhouse in Essex, where attendees were treated to an inside look at how the good stuff is made. ABOVE: Laurie Jordan, co-owner of the sugarhouse, talks to some attendees last Saturday. BELOW: A collection of taps hang in the sugarhouse on Bixby Hill Road.

HOW SWEET IT IS

A 13-year-old boy was in “critical but stable condition” after being hit by a school bus last week, police said last Friday.

Emergency personnel were dispatched to Sand Hill Road near Tanglewood Drive around 3:30 p.m. on March 22 for the reported crash. The boy was then transported to the University of Vermont Medical Center for “unspecific injuries,” police said.

Police now say they don’t plan to release the boy’s name given his age, nor do they plan to provide any further updates to his condition.

Last week, police named the Mountain Transit bus driver as 57-year-old Muriel Ramos of Fairfax and said both he and the children on the bus were uninjured.

Based on statements from Ramos and other witnesses, police said there was no indication Ramos was speeding or engaging in any other improper driving.

On Monday, Sgt. Rob Hall said the investigation should soon be complete, and he didn’t expect any charges to be filed.

Vermont Systems plans expansion after earning Army contract

By COLIN FLANDERS

Finishing near the middle of the pack was 13-year-old Noah Sanderson, a seventh-grader at the Albert D. Lawton School in Essex Jct. He earned a spot on the stage in Colchester after beating out his classmates at a spelling bee open to the entire student body.

“I just like spelling words,” Noah said in an interview on Monday.

His mom helped him prepare for the school’s bee by quizzing him on words each day. Still, he said he got lucky — one student Noah thought was a shoo-in was dealt a particularly difficult word in an early round and eliminated.

The win at ADL also offered sweet redemption for Noah. He tried out for the school’s spelling team in fifth grade but didn’t get a

An Essex-based software company is planning a hiring spree after earning a U.S. Army contract earlier this month worth millions of dollars.

Vermont Systems Inc. secured a contract to upgrade its current software system that manages recreational activities on U.S. military bases.

The software, known as RecTrac, registers families for recreational programs, tracks concession sales at venues, signs up for fitness center memberships and reserves tee times for the dozens of base golf courses, among other services.

Though the military has used RecTrac since the early ’90s, VSI’s database has until now been managed by each garrison.

“What they found is what they were lacking is standardization,” said Giles Willey, VSI’s president and CEO. “They’re finally figuring out they can’t do it themselves.”

Under the new contract, VSI will expand its operation to provide full data management and analysis to help the Army’s headquarters better understand the performance of its recreational services. VSI will also be ramping its software support to a 24/7 model.

Eventually, VSI will end up with a single enterprise database

Kids s-p-e-l-l way through state bee

By MICHAELA HALNON Twenty-eight spellers sat in neat rows on the stage at the St. Michael’s College McCarthy Performing Arts Center last Wednesday afternoon, each hoping to s-p-e-l-l their way to victory.

Raghav Dhandi, a student at Main Street Middle School in Montpelier, took home the top prize in the Vermont Scripps Spelling Bee after correctly spelling “slavering” — letting saliva run from the mouth, according to the judges’ definition.

He’ll head to Washington, D.C. in May for the national spelling bee and face off against spellers from across the country. Scripps is expecting a record number of attendees, according to their website.

With a little help, DIY print studio looks to be one-stop-shop for local indie publishers

By COLIN FLANDERS Like so many artists, Stephanie Zuppo takes “do it yourself ” less as a Pinterest board and more of a life motto.

To date, the 27-year-old Philadelphia transplant has personally marketed self-published comic books, ran a convention database for comic cons and zinefests and founded the first (and only) allfemme comic newspaper in Vermont, “The Ladybroad Ledger.”

Now, with the help of the Essex Hub for Women in Business, Zuppo is taking on a whole new challenge: A DIY print media studio to support small-scale opera-

tions with almost anything an indie publisher — from bookbinders to writers to printer makers and zinesters — could want, all on a budget they can afford.

If that’s the mission statement for Words & Pictures, its leader is smack dab in the execution phase: drumming up members and outfitting the studio. But staying affordable means keeping costs low overall. And that means getting creative.

“Everything is kind of cobbled together,” Zuppo said last week in the studio, which overlooks Main Street from above Martone’s.

“Total bootstrap operation,” chimed Kristin

Humbargar, founder of the Essex Hub, the parent company of the Main Street Studio and its new companion.

“Exactly,” Zuppo said. “Which I think fits the theme of the DIY, zinester lifestyle.”

Indeed, much the mish-mash of furniture and equipment was either donated, like the sink from the sandwich shop downstairs, or nabbed on the low off Craigslist.

The studio currently boasts an embroidery machine, light table, sewing machine, color printer, laminator and a slew of other equipment.

With a bit more time to prepare for the state competition, Noah said the spelling study sessions took on a new form. His mom taped words up around their house, allowing him to see and practice unfamiliar words as he completed daily tasks.

“I annoyed everyone in my family, especially my brother, by saying them at random times,” Noah said.

Along the way, he found a few spelling tricks. In German words, for example, he noticed the letter “E” often comes before “I,” except in a few instances.

He said he was surprised by the low difficulty of the first word at the state bee, “bagel,” but thought the difficulty skyrock-

eted from there. Noah was eliminated after incorrectly spelling “taj,” a tall cone-shaped cap worn by dervishes, according to Merriam-Webster.

That word proved to be tricky even after the bee ended. Noah said he misheard the judges when they offered the correct spelling of the word at the competition and repeated the misspelling any time a friend asked what word stumped him.

Noah plans to try again next year and said he’ll watch the national spelling bee on TV this spring.

His favorite word? Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, a lung disease caused by inhaling fine dust.

The 45-letter word also serves as his email password. He’s allowing The Reporter to print that information, noting no one knows which of his email accounts the login is associated with.

LocaL STUDIO from page 1 munity artist studios, morphing a bunch of old desks into a screenprinting table.

There’s still a way to go. Words & Pictures’ public Amazon wishlist highlights a wide array of necessities, from a new color printer to some tape dispensers and a first aid kit.

And, of course, there are a few more ambitious items, like a Riso Duplicator, also known as a Risograph, which is apparently a copier-looking-machine that recreates a handmade look and feel with the efficiency (and cost effectiveness) of a modern printer.

Zuppo is now amid a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for further start-up costs; as of Monday, they’d raised over a third of the $6,000 goal.

Still, Zuppo said they are most looking forward to when the studio is full of

life.

They got an early look at the space’s potential during a bustling release party for The Ladybroad Ledger earlier this month, and four full-time members already call the space home: Zuppo, cartoonists Iona Fox and Jesse DuRona and folklorist Andy Kolovos, who pay up to $250 a month for 24-hour access to a dedicated studio space.

Zuppo also envisions up to 15 floating members that could work during specific hours for $50 a month.

While co-working spaces have become an increasingly popular trend across many professions, there’s an added practicality for artists, who often cross mediums and disciplines within even a single project.

“It's like a constant learning experience,” Zuppo said. “Everyone kind of has their own thing that they're good at, and when you bring it all together, we just kind of bounce things

off each other, learn from each other, critique. It just makes for a better product.”

For Zuppo, who has a master’s in comics from the Center for Cartoon Studies in White River Jct., Words & Pictures represents an entirely new challenge. But the concept gels with Humbargar’s vision for Essex Jct.: a place for people to cocreate and co-work in their own community.

Her reach now extends from her Pearl St. hub to the two locations looking down on Main Street, and last year’s SteAmfest is shaping up to become an annual event. One day, Humbargar hopes, these spaces might even prop the village up as a destination for creatives and enthusiasts — the northern comic center of Vermont, perhaps.

“I don't think people have even envisioned yet what Essex can sort of hold in terms of the creative aspects,” she said. "The potential is huge."

Vermont Systems, Inc. plans to hire up to 25 new employees after earning a contract with the U.S. Army that's expected to bring in millions of dollars in new revenue.

that serves every U.S. military base around the world. To get there, the company plans to hire up to 25 new employees across nearly all the company’s areas to supplement the 95 that currently work out of its Essex offices. It’s already prepped for the expansion, purchasing the land and building next door, and Willey hoped to begin a 5,000-squarefoot addition sometime next month.

He estimates the contract is worth between $3 to $4 million in revenue the first year and up to $9 million once the changes are fully implemented a few years later. He said that will add about 25 percent to the company’s yearly baseline.

Some changes to military contacts will benefit VSI, too, Willey said. This year, the U.S. Department of Defense moved from a five- to a 10-year model and adopted an hourly pay scale instead of requiring contractors to stay on its proposed price. That means in addition to the annual maintained

payments, VSI will be compensated for all “ancillary” services, Willey said, like trainings and webinars.

“The more they want out of us, the more they’re going to pay,” he said, though he noted the government will save some money with the contract, too, thanks to a centralized system.

VSI began in 1985 after Giles, then a 22-year-old recent college grad, and his father, Bob, left a banking software company to start their own business. A month later, Willey’s sisters joined the family business.

Three decades later, VSI serves 1,100 municipal customers, including Essex and Essex Jct. It was recognized with the 2018 Governor’s Excellence in Worksite Wellness Award.

In those early days, Willey said his biggest concern was ensuring there was enough payroll for his family. Soon, he will be worrying about more than 100 people: “The bigger it is, the bigger the problem,” he joked.

“But I guess the bigger the joy, [too],” he said. “I get juiced coming to work every day.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Local control is key to public education success

By Martha heath

T

wenty years ago, Vermont made a firm commitment to retain local control of decisions about school spending. This carefully considered choice came in the wake of the Brigham decision in 1997, when the Vermont Supreme Court ruled the state’s education funding system was unconstitutional. The decision made it clear the state had the ultimate responsibility to ensure the Vermont’s schoolchildren had equal educational opportunities.

To satisfy the court, the legislature crafted a funding system that recognizes that we are all responsible for educating all of the children in the state.

At the same time, the system affirms spending decisions should be made locally by those closest to and with the best understanding of the needs of the children in the community.

Lately, though, Montpelier appears to be backing away from this important commitment to local decisionmaking.

In December, the governor asked local school boards to match him in holding spending growth for next year to 2.4 percent or less. School boards

responded, and at Town Meeting votes across the state, 95 percent of our local communities passed budgets that held that spending growth to 1.5 percent, far below what the governor had requested.

Now the governor is asking that another $40 million be cut from these approved budgets.

His request shows a puzzling disregard and lack of respect for the work done by local school boards and communities. The governor would never question the decisions local voters make when they go to the polls to elect state officials and legislators. Why is their judgement in passing local school budgets not sound?

Act 46 initially dictated schoolspending levels by imposing tax penalties on communities that exceeded prescribed growth limits. The result was a breach of one of the fundamental principles of the current funding system: districts with the same spending per pupil have the same tax rates. Fortunately, the penalties were repealed.

School consolidation exercises require large amounts of time for hundreds of volunteer school board and community members. This work is on top of the task boards have guiding the annual operation of our public school

systems.

Constant change is making this task ever more difficult as boards have been working to respond to requirements regarding consolidation discussions, proficiency based learning and personalized learning plans. These requirements are important yet time consuming. To add to the challenge this year, the governor is asking for money to be cut from already passed school budgets and the legislature is contemplating a change in the school funding system that would impact budgets already passed. Isn’t it disrespectful of local voters to change the rules of the game after budgets are finalized?

School boards, school board members and local voters are a critical part of our successful public education system in Vermont—one of the best in the country. To continue to make it better, it is important that state policy makers respect the work that is done at the local level and work with school boards instead of making their jobs more challenging. Our children’s future depends on it.

Martha Heath is the chairwoman of the Essex Westford School Board and a former state rep from Westford.

reP. DYLan GiaMBatista Last week was an important week in the 2018 legislative session. The FY19 state budget (H.924), and a bill to change how we fund education (H.911), both passed the House.

These bills will now move to the Senate. If history is any guide, the passage of the budget and education bills suggests we are entering the final phase of the session.

Given that I serve on the House Education Committee, I will focus this column on H.911, the bill the House last week passed to change how we fund education. Additional updates are on my website, www.vtdylan.com.

H.911 bill was developed to address persistent calls from Vermonters to reduce our reliance on property taxes to fund education. Another external factor that prompted action was the federal tax changes that became law this winter. The House Ways and Means Committee drafted the bill to make income tax changes in combination with changes to the way we fund education.

In short, the bill proposed updates to Vermont's tax code, including the creation of a new income tax surcharge that would raise $59.1 million in FY19 to be dedicated to the Education Fund, with the rationale that this revenue stream would offset property taxes. Under the new framework, a school district's education savings would vary based on their level of pupil spending – lower spending districts would receive more of a reduction than higher spending districts.

After extensive review and conversations with school board members and others, I joined a tri-partisan group of legislators to vote against this tax bill. Every year we have a legislative debate about education finance and property tax reform. Many of our neighbors, and many in Montpelier, propose different solutions. This bill failed to achieve real reform. Instead, it proposed a short term change to solve property tax pressures that were created by political decisions during last year's veto session.

This year, our school boards—including the EWSD Board—responded to political rhetoric in Montpelier by passing budgets that grow far less than what many at the State House, and the governor, asked for. This restraint follows a decade of our local schools and educators taking on more and more obligations that once belonged to the state.

I cannot vote for a bill that proposes yet another temporary change, and additional cost-shifting to local school districts, when our local volunteers and educators have made permanent, real reforms for the benefit of educating our kids in changing times.

Short term thinking is not sufficient if we are going to address challenges in our education system. My nonpartisan vote was a vote against another year of kicking the can down the road. reP. LinDa MYers Reporting a week after action on the floor of the House of Representatives is always difficult since news of what happened in Montpelier has most likely been read and absorbed, but the deadline for The Essex Reporter is such that your legislators must look backward for this column. This column was supposed to run in the March 22 issue of The Reporter, but it apparently got lost in the netherworld of

tiM AShE (d/p) | phil bAruth (d) dEbbiE inGrAM (d) | Ginny lyonS (d) ChriS pEArSon (d/p) | MiChAEl SirotKin (d)

electronics so a lot of this column is “old information.” I assume whomever has the column scheduled for this week will fill you in on what happened in Montpelier this past week.

In my column of March 22, I reported on the legislative week of March 13-16 which was a busy one for those of us dealing with many bills in committee as well as voting on the floor of the House. Bills had been filed for “crossover” before legislators went to Town Meeting break, so a large number of bills were waiting to be offered on the floor when we returned on March 13. When bills appear for floor votes, they must be voted on two times, called second and third reading. During the four days of the week of March 13, your representatives voted on a total of 68 times, for 35 bills, for second or third reading. Each bill had be introduced and explained by a presenter, and the presentations often take a long time. The presentations are followed by questions from House members and amendments may be made before a final vote. All of this means that your legislators spent many hours discussing the pros and cons of the bills before us.

I serve on the House Commerce and Economic Development Committee. A lot of bills we generate do not get the press of the bills from Appropriations, Education or Judiciary. Our bills deal with insurance, banking, and other business issues. But during the March 13-18 week I had the pleasure of presenting two bills of which I am quite proud in that I helped craft and then introduce them on the floor.

These bills, H.767 and H.919, will benefit students, working Vermonters and employers in an effort to make our State a place where jobs will be available and our students and young adults will have the training to do well in the workplace.

H.767, called the ThinkVermont Innovation Initiative, was created to respond to the growth needs of Vermont small businesses by funding strategies that accelerate small business growth. H.919, called “An Act Relating to Workforce Development,” will commit to a redesign of Vermont’s workforce development and training system through a “Career Pathways” plan that will enable young Vermonters to train seamlessly from secondary to postsecondary experiences and to be successful in a full range of education options, including registered apprenticeships. Both bills were passed unanimously by members of the House.

I feel both H.767 and H.919 will go far in benefitting the economy of our state. But I have to say that in serving in the Legislature for almost 17 years, I consider H.919 one of the most important bills I have ever had the pleasure of crafting and introducing.

As you read this on March 29, I anticipate my committee will have reported on another bill of importance to thousands of Vermonters, H.482, which sets standards and limits on debt collectors in regards to credit card debt. H.482 establishes a clear path that debt collectors must follow to allow those in debt a reasonable method of paying what they owe. The bill has the support of Vermont Legal Aid that came to my committee to ask for help for Vermonters who find themselves in deep water in regards to credit card debt. This bill, while not eliminating this debt, looks to be a pathway to helping those who find themselves in trouble.

OBITUARIES & IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of autuMn Lee Whitehouse 10/7/1986 – 3/29/2005 Autumn, while your spirit and love lives on in the lives you touched during your short time on earth, 13 years ago today became the saddest day of my life.

The tears in my eyes can be wiped away but the ache, emptiness and sadness in my heart will never go away. You are always in my thoughts and forever in my heart. I miss you so much.

All my Love, Mom

"The Autumn of Life" The autumn leaves can dazzle us with their magnificent colors: deep red, purple, yellow, gold, bronze, in countless variations and combinations. Then, shortly after having shown their unspeakable beauty, they fall to the ground and die. The barren trees remind us that winter is near.

Likewise, the autumn of life has the potential to be very colorful: wisdom, humor, care, patience and joy may bloom splendidly just before we die.

As we look at the barren trees and remember those who have died, let us be grateful for the beauty we saw in them and wait hopefully for a new spring.

– Henri J. M. Nouwen

Bancroft: Do better As a community that has been traumatized by gun violence in our schools, all of us can relate to the horror of recent mass shootings in Florida and elsewhere. It has, therefore, been inspiring to see young people in Essex and around the country stand up to the gun lobby and say "enough."

Sadly, one of our state representatives, Robert Bancroft (Essex/Westford), is prioritizing the gun lobby over the safety of our children. Last week, Mr. Bancroft voted against commonsense legislation

(S.55) that would close some loopholes in our state’s gun safety laws.

I voted for Mr. Bancroft twice and am a supporter of the second amendment, but if our state representative cannot find it in himself to support the very modest gun safety measures pending in the legislature, it is time for a change. We simply cannot have elected officials who prioritize the gun lobby over our children’s right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. steve schmida Essex

Celebrating spring

By Lou ann PioLi Coordinator, Essex Area Senior Center Spring is the season of rebirth, renewal and regrowth, and the refreshing energy accompanying that anticipation is palpable these days at the senior center.

In the past couple of weeks, we’ve had a number of folks stroll in to see what we were about, many saying they didn’t know we existed or that we were such an active center. As our membership is growing with new and renewed interest, these first weeks of spring seem like the perfect time to share some information about our Essex Area Senior Center that folks may be interested in.

The center has been in existence for more than 30 years, beginning as space that the Village of Essex Jct. allowed seniors to use for crafts, games and socialization. Dedicated volunteers took responsibility for the day to day operation. In 2014, with membership reaching more than one hundred and a vision for growth and expansion, the volunteers requested that a part-time position be created to handle the growing operation. The position was placed under the Town of Essex Parks and Recreation department, a reasonable way for both the village and town to share support of the senior population. In July 2016 the Essex Area Senior Center became an official department of the Village of Essex Junction, and in January 2017, the part-time senior activities coordinator position became full-time.

Today the center continues to grow with new members and programs/activities every day. Membership has reached 300-plus, and dedicated volunteers still play an invaluable role for smooth, daily operation and new activities. In addition to the typical card and board games often offered at senior centers, we also feature penny bingo, seated yoga and tai chi, a very active knitting and crocheting group, monthly book club, weekly luncheons, Wii bowling, an ever-growing group of Mah Jongg players, several “drop-in” times for whatever members choose, and many special events and programs throughout the year. Our summer and fall trips have also been extremely popular. This year we’ll be headed to Depot Theater in Westport, N.Y., Burton Island and Winnipesaukee Playhouse among others. We’ve recently added monthly Thursday Topics featuring guest speakers such as Wayne Crandall presenting a must-experience dementia simulation, Jessica Early from Sen. Sanders’ office speaking on senior advocacy, staff from Age Well informing us of the plethora of services and resources they offer and Rich O’Donnell from Ready Funeral Home with information on end of life planning.

We have an active program committee which welcomes and encourages new members and new ideas. Our center relies heavily on membership, donations and our fund-raising efforts to sustain our programs and activities, and we are ever-grateful for the support we receive in our community. If you are 50 years of age or older, searching for something new and refreshing to usher in this spring season, please do come by and visit the center. Many members refer to the center as their second home. We nurture a warm, welcoming environment and would be more than happy to have you join us!

Some upcoming events: The luncheon at CTE cancelled twice due to weather is now scheduled for April 11. February tickets will be honored. Thursday Topics on April 12 will feature a panel from VT Dept. of Financial Regulation speaking on scams and frauds. Free and open to the public. Mah Jongg Tournament will be Sunday, April 15. Contact Lou Ann at 876-5087 for more.

At that time, amateur size telescopes will have some reasonable views of Martian surface features. This talk is designed for visual amateur observations through telescopes of 4" - 8" aperture and will cover all aspects of observing Mars.

SPORTS

The Essex Reporter • March 29, 2018

SPORT SHORTS

By JOE GONILLO Congratulations to our boys’ hockey team and coaches on winning the 2018 Division I State Championship last week. Essex led from start to finish and left no doubt who is the best team in D-I. Thanks to the snow, they played the game the day spring sports began and overlapped winter and spring sports a bit; I don’t remember that happening before. Quick notes on the D-II final, the start of MLB this week, helping a friend, some spring sports information and of course Happy Easter!

A 5-0 blowout of Spaulding in the state finals firmly affixed the Hornets as D-I state champs. Head coach Chris Line and staff – Dean Corkum, Tyler Peckham and Kerry Weibe – deserve a lot of credit, as do the boys, on their success this season. Eleven days after the regularly scheduled state final, Essex was ready to play from the opening second. Five different players scored, including three goals in the first period. Grady Cram (from Waylon Almeida), Ryan Young and Sam Gibbs (from Young and Cram) opened the scoring. Maverick King (from Jared Almeida) and Jonah Janaro (from Cram and Waylon’s second assist) put a bow on the game, season and state title. Sam Foster stopped 17 shots in the championship shutout with the defense playing nothing short of marvelous. Not a bad season for a rookie coach and former Hornet!

Another former Hornet, and current Lyndon Institute

hockey coach, Chris Meunier brought his Viking team to the finals versus top-seeded Woodstock. Despite a valiant effort, LI could not stay with their undefeated opponents and fell 4-0 in the finals. Taking home the runner-up trophy, they had a great season. Meunier returned to the Essex rink with his LI captain, Krystof Vanek, who played in the Rotary Classic All Star game . In a family affair, the coach gave his player a ride over to his old stomping grounds for practice and for the game. They bunked at brother Jay and family’s home.

Congratulations to the following Hornet hockey players who were named to the 2018 Rotary All-Star Hockey Classic: Hannah Barrett, Kaitlyn Butkus, Kylee Hope, Hannah Palmer, Sam Couture, Maverick King, Issac Johnson, Nate Theriault and Ryan Young (see our pictures of the event by Kyle St. Peter online at essexreporter.com). Loved that Montpelier/UVM hockey star, and 2018 U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist, Amanda Pelkey dropped the puck! Barrett and Theriault both scored in their respective games.

Congrats to Hornets’ girls’ varsity basketball players Kylie Acker, Olivia Duncan and Emmalee Smith who were named to the 2018 Dream Dozen team.

A quick reminder that spring sports Meet the Coaches Night landed on the schedule for Wednesday, March 28 at 6:30pm in the auditorium. Remember you need at least one parent/guardian, plus the student athlete, of course, to be attendance.

Another former Hornet, current Mt. Mansfield Union educator Katie Goodwin coached the South Burlington Wolves girls’ hockey team this winter. SB went deep into the playoffs - nice job. Goodwin was also a coach in this past weekend’s Rotary Classic.

Check out the recent update re our friend Azzie’s recovery and situation submitted by his daughter Katrina.

Azzie has had another good week of recovering. Overall,

he is feeling well and rejuvenated in his zest for life. Very encouraging indeed! He had his weekly sinus check-up…… besides his doctor check-ups, Dad has also still been receiving loads of visitors to check in with him. I cannot express enough how much my father truly cherishes all of the people who have been in so special to him throughout his life.

Azzie truly does thrive when he is surrounded by all of his loved-ones. So, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Cards and well wishes may also be sent to 96 College Parkway, Apt. 2, Colchester, and the site for donations once again is gofundme.com/supportazziesrecovery.

My Final Four picks: Virginia – out in a BIG way, North Carolina – also gone home, Duke - gone in OT and Villanova is my last man standing. Still rooting hard for the UCONN Huskies on the women's side, but Mississippi State looms as a huge opponent for them.

I also worked in some Sarasota golf with former Essex semi-pros Don Hathaway, Ernie Dudley and Randy Steel. I had the most swings on a tough, humbling course that was highlighted by some incredible wildlife - especially eight Florida alligators populating one huge swimming hole / pond. I’m back home by the time you are reading this, but I caught the Yanks Sunday in Port Charlotte versus the Rays.

Sadly, I still think the Red Sox may win the East with the Indians and Astros taking their divisions. Yanks and Mariners should be WC teams. Washington, Chicago, LA win with D-backs and Brewers in WC game.

Happy Birthday wishes to nephew, and Navy SEAL trainee, Derek Hathaway, nephew, and Westford resident, Wyatt Stark, nephew, and business mogul, Nate Bechtel, Ramunto’s Mackenzie Mazza, Hornet gymnastic coach Lucy Lincoln, former Hornet gymnastic coach Alicia McCurley, ex-Hornet Nate Federico, Melissa Tomko Paquett, Lee Morrett, Brent Ames and highly talented soccer official, and good friend, Sonja Fiarkowski Duncan.

GODSPEAK: I’m going with Austin Dillon winning the Daytona 500 (and his tattoo story), plus the rise of Aric Almirola, who may join Bowyer in Victory Lane very soon.

KEN’S CALL: I was leaning toward Harvick because three straight wins is surprising for anyone.

But gotta go with Bowyer now, because his win came after several weeks of decency.

And, since we’re asking, the biggest letdown?

GODSPEAK: It has to be Chase Elliott. He was ready to win in 2017 and now he does not have the car to win in 2018.

KEN’S CALL: Gonna go with Bubba Wallace. He got our hopes up after Daytona, but he hasn’t found top gear since.

Feud oF the week JAMIE MCMURRAY VS. AUSTIN DILLON: McMurray was minding his own business and Dillon clipped him and spun him into the wall. It was the only yellow flag for an incident all day.

GODWIN KELLY’S TAKE: McMurray is not the vindictive type, but this one might have gotten under his skin. We won’t know for sure until Bristol three weeks from now.

MARTINSVILLE THREE THINGS WE LEARNED

Clint Bowyer was so excited about snapping a nagging 190-race losing streak, he nearly wiped out his No. 14 Ford in Turn 3 of the cool-down lap. “Finally to get the No. 14 in Victory Lane is just a weight off the shoulders,” he said. “You start to question if you can get it done or not.”

2. Mr. Second Place

Who picked Martinsville in March?

For most any driver, three secondplace finishes over four consecutive starts would be big news. Not for Kyle Busch. “I wouldn’t say it’s one particular thing that we can pinpoint, we’ve just been beat by somebody kind of hitting it a little bit more than we have,” Busch said with a shrug.

Settle down, this was a bit of a fluke. The race was scheduled for March 25. On March 25 the previous year, the Martinsville high was 73 under sunny skies. So don’t blame anyone beyond Jack Frost. Also, at least we got plenty of cool pictures of a racetrack under a blanket of snow. Repurpose them for Christmas cards later this year.

3. Snow day The NASCAR Cup Series took a rare snow-day off Sunday. Martinsville Speedway was full of white powder, making it impossible to race. The last time NASCAR had to postpone a race for snow was all the way back to 1993 when Atlanta was blanketed by spring flakes.

Will the Chevrolets find it?

THREE THINGS TO WATCH 1. Chevrolet, ole’!

Chevy is seeing red right now. Look for Team Chevrolet and the General Motors Nation to work through the NASCAR Cup Series off-week to get more consistent speed into the new Camaro body. With a few exceptions, Chevrolet’s performance has been dreadful. It took seven-time Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson five starts before scoring his first top-10 finish. “Each week we have been getting a little bit better,” he said.

2. No, says Edwards Every time Carl Edwards gets asked the question “Are you planning to return as a Cup Series driver?” the answer is always the same — “No.” During a recent interview on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Edwards drove a stake through the heart of comeback rumors. “I don’t have

Can it be a Clint year?

WINNER: Kevin Harvick REST OF TOP 5: Martin Truex Jr., Kyle Busch, Chase Elliott, Jimmie Johnson FIRST ONE OUT: Ricky Stenhouse Jr. DARK HORSE: Erik Jones DON’T BE SURPRISED IF: Harvick emerges from a three-way battle with Truex and Busch to win his fourth Cup race of 2018.

Compelling questions ... and maybe a few actual answers

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but yes, let’s hope we see more of Clint Bowyer among the latelap leaders and occasionally in Victory Lane. He’s a guy who’s popular with fellow racers and anyone who misses the days when all the racers were a little gritty and not afraid to let their hair down in public. There’s a lot of Jethro Bodine in Clint Bowyer, and that’s a good thing for us onlookers.

1. Streak, broken!

Few winners in NASCAR’s recent history were as happy and relieved as Clint Bowyer was Monday in Martinsville.

The polite thing to say is, “of course, the season is young.

They’ll catch up eventually.”

But the truth is, they’ve been mediocre on nearly all manner of track so far, and that’s a very bad sign. And I mean “mediocre” compared to your Taurus. Compared to the actual competition, something less than mediocre.

C u p S ta n d i n g S

Chevy drivers Chase Elliott, left, and Jimmie Johnson are trying to figure out how to get more speed out of the new Camaro body. [AP/RALPH FRESO] any plans to come back,” he said.

Edwards did hint at a possible hard turn into politics. “But there’s nothing planned any time soon,’ he said.

3. No longer with us OK, the header sounds ominous, but the subject matter is this: race drivers who have won at Texas over the last 10 years but who are no longer

racing. So over the last 10 years, dating back to 2008, the drivers who won races at Texas and no longer drive are Carl Edwards, Jeff Gordon, Matt Kenseth, Tony Stewart and Greg Biffle. The next stop for these guys is the NASCAR Hall of Fame, most certainly.

Jacob Yao. The results are expected in a couple weeks, and up to two high scorers from each participating high school in Vermont will take the national exam on April 21 at St. Michael's College. The national exam consists of a written exam and two lab practicals.

Around 1,000 students from around the United States will be taking the national exam, and the 20 high scorers will attend a twoweek camp at the Air Force Academy in Colorado. From there, a team of four is selected to represent the USA at the International Olympiad in Slovakia in July. More news when the results come in.

School Calendar Note: Parent/Teacher Conferences are on Friday, March 23 (no school for students). No appointment needed.

Science Olympiad: Congrats to the EHS Science Olympiad team for an outstanding performance at the Vermont State Championships on March 10.

Kate Connolly and Katherine Lewis won the gold for anatomy and physiology, Isabelle Petrucci and Katherine Lewis won silver for disease detectives, and Petrucci and Nguyen Le won bronze for chem lab.

Chemistry Olypiad: On March 6, 14 Essex High School students took the challenging Chemistry Olympiad 2018 local exam.

The students were: Zachary Preston, Santhosh Rajendran, Grace Lu, Samson Schultz, Adam Friedman, Abigail Monahan, Isabelle Petrucci, Nathan Wu, Henry Wu, Jeremy Brennan, Brennan Moreau, Abigael Gleason, Hannah Poquette, and

Art donation: Students at Thomas Fleming took part in an art fundraiser with the company Square One Art this fall. The PTO agreed to donate half of the profits from merchandise sold with individual student art worked reproduced on it. The timing of this project coincided with the hurricanes that impacted both Houston and Florida. Seeing the images of the impact of the hurricanes, they inspired students to create artwork with the themes of shelter and food. Thanks to the student's hard work and parent support through purchases of student art, it allowed Fleming to donate $1,000 to Braeburn Elementary in Houston. The students decided helping their art program made the

most sense and it was very empowering for the fourth and fifth grade students to know they can make a difference in another community. It also was a real world example of the power of art to help and heal. Braeburn is displaced for this year and recently found out their building was so badly damaged that the building will have to be demolished and they will be displaced for an additional year. Fleming sent photos of its students sending greetings to Texas and they recently shared photos of some of their students.

Volcanoes: As part of a recent earth science unit, students in Nichole Guntulis and Kate Lee's classes at Fleming built (and set off) volcanoes.

EWSD to host a community conversation around school safety: The Essex Westford School District, in partnership with Voices For Education, will host a conversation and information session focused on school and community safety on Monday, April 2 from 6:30-8 p.m. in the Essex High School cafeteria. Fol-

lowing the event that took place in Parkland, Fla. and the recent threats we have seen in our own district, EWSD would like to invite our families and the public to discuss how we can work together to create a safer community. The safety of the children and staff is a top priority for the district and an ongoing topic that

has only been amplified of late.

As part of the forum, EWSD wants to hear your concerns around school and community safety, share the safety practices and procedures that are currently in place or planned at the school/district level, and also provide an opportunity for participants to generate ideas about how the we can all play a role in making our schools and community a safer place to live and learn.

All are welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served.

FOOD

Ring in spring with a festive cake Spring chicks cake with lemon & coconut

By NANCY MOCK, hungryenoughtoeatsix.com Ingredients For the cakes: Nonstick vegetable oil spray 2-1/2 cups + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus extra for flouring pans, unbleached 6 tablespoons cornstarch 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup plus two tablespoons unsalted butter, softened 1-1/2 cups granulated sugar 6 large egg whites, at room temperature 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1-1/4 cups milk, at room temperature For the lemon syrup: 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup lemon juice For the coconut "grass": 1/2 of a bag shredded coconut, 7 ounces Green food coloring Frosting: 3/4 cup butter, 12 tablespoons, a little softened 1/2 cup vegetable shortening, like Crisco 1/8 teaspoon salt 6 cups confectioner's sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup 2% milk Yellow food coloring 1/3 cup lemon marmalade Instructions 1) Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round spring-form pans or cake pans. Cut a round of parchment paper to fit into the bottom of the pan. Grease and flour the parchment paper.

2) In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

3) In the bowl of a large stand mixer, beat the softened butter with the 1-1/2 cups of granulated sugar for about 5 minutes: the mixture should be fluffy and pale yellow in color. With the mixer running on low, slowly pour in the egg whites and vanilla, and mix them into the butter-sugar mixture.

Add to the mixing bowl a third of the flour mixture and run the mixer until it is just combined. Add in half of the milk and mix this in too. Repeat these steps with another third of the flour mixture, then the rest of the milk and then finally the last of the flour mixture. The batter should be smooth.

4) Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans. Bake the cakes for 30 minutes.

5) While the cakes bake, prepare the lemon syrup: to a small saucepan add the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and the lemon juice. Stir these together and heat the mixture over medium heat. Stir occasionally while you bring it to a boil. Once it's boiling, reduce the heat slightly and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring it occasionally. After 5 minutes, remove the pan from the

heat. Allow it to sit and cool slightly while the cakes finish baking.

6) After the cakes have baked for 30 minutes, check them by inserting a toothpick or wooden skewer into the center - it should come out clean.

If necessary, bake the cakes a few minutes longer until the tester comes out clean. Remove the pans from the oven and place them on a cooling rack.

Use a pastry or silicone brush to brush the tops of the cakes with the lemon syrup. Stop when the tops of the cakes seem moistened - you will not need all of the syrup. The remaining syrup can be poured into a jar and refrigerated for up to two weeks (or you can discard it.)

7) Allow the cakes to cool completely. Remove the cakes from the pans and peel off the parchment rounds. Wrap the cakes in plastic wrap and refrigerate the layers for at least 1 hour or up to two days.

While the cake layers chill, prepare coconut and frosting: 1) Place the coconut in large gallon-size Ziploc bag. Add in a few drops of the green food coloring plus 1 teaspoon of water. Seal the bag and gently squeeze it to mix the green through the coconut. Repeat as necessary with more green food coloring and water until you get the shade of green you want, to look like grass on the cake. Keep the coconut sealed in the bag until you're ready to use it.

2) To prepare the buttercream, beat together the 3/4 cup of butter and the 1/4 cup of vegetable shortening in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix in the salt. Beat in 1 cup of the confectioner's sugar, followed by a little of the milk. Continue alternating the sugar and milk until all of the sugar has been mixed in. Add in the vanilla and beat the frosting until it is light and fluffy.

(You may not need all of the milk.)

3) Scoop out 1 cup of the frosting and place it in a small bowl. Add in a few drops of the yellow food coloring and mix it in with a fork. Continue adding food coloring until you get a nice shade of yellow that is bright and chick-like! (If the frosting gets too soft add in a little confectioner's sugar.)

Assemble the cake: 1) Remove one cake layer from the fridge and unwrap it. Place it on a round cake platter. Spread about 1 cup of the buttercream over the layer and to the edge all the way around. Make the frosting even across the layer with a slight rise around the edge. Spoon the lemon marmalade over the frosted layer and spread it evenly to within two inches from the edge.

Remove the second cake layer from the fridge, unwrap it and place it on first layer. Spread a thin layer of buttercream over the top as a crumb coat.

Spread a thin layer of frosting as a crumb coat over the sides as well. If there are gaps between the layers, use buttercream to fill them in. Spread the remaining butter cream over the sides and over the top layer, Touch up and fill in gaps along the sides or in places where cake is showing.

2) Spread some green coconut over the top of the cake and gently press it into frosting. Sprinkle more coconut over the top so it looks fluffy.

If cake top is not quite flat, build coconut up at edges and make it flatter through center where the chicks will be.

3) Place the reserved, yellow frosting in a piping bag with a #12 tip.

Or, place the yellow frosting in a medium Ziploc bag, and snip off one corner to make about a 1/4" opening. To make a chick, pipe a mound of yellow frosting onto the coconut (for the chick body) and then on top of this a smaller mound (for the head.) If the yellow frosting is too soft and not holding its shape, refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes until it is more firm. Repeat these steps to make several chicks over the top of the cake (I did nine and had frosting leftover.) Push two chocolate sprinkles into each head to create two small, black eyes on each chick. Place the triangle sprinkle under the eyes with the corner sticking up and out slightly to make a beak on each head. Place a yellow oval sprinkle on the top of each head, on its side and sticking up to look a like a Mohawk.

4) Slice the cake and serve. Keep leftover cake in a covered cake storer for up to three days. Serves 10 people.
