EDITORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S NOTE 6

The Hilligoss Family Route 11 Potato Chip Adventure Little did I realize that I would find inspiration in a bag of potato chips. My sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite food, bar none, is the all American potato chip. If allowed, Dale would eat chips for breakfast, lunch and dinner and every hour in between. Really. I am not exaggerating. So while taking a pit stop on our way down to our annual family vacation, I picked up a rack card for the Route 11 Potato Chip Factory Tour - crossing my fingers that it might be a cool day trip and score thumbs up from our moody teenagers. Mostly, the kids determine the vacation activity agenda. Since we have been coming to Massanutten, VA for the past few years, we have pretty much done all of the activities on the resort property. Over coffee, Tony and I decided that today would be the day that we would venture out and take an adventure. Dale and Lindsey were not sure if they were excited about going to a potato chip factory but they finally dragged their lazy butts out of bed, when they realized that the alternative meant being bored all day in the condo. Finding Route 11 Potato Chip Factory turned out to be an adventure in taking the road less traveled. In the scramble to get everyone out the door, I left the rack card

with the directions so I looked it up on my iphone. Unfortunately, my navigation system didn’t recognize their address and my car doesn’t have a built in compass. Even with our google map apps, we weren’t sure which direction was north or south on a particular route – yes we are both really directionally challenged. We felt like real losers calling the factory to get directions. After 4 calls to the factory and a detour due to a covered bridge under maintenance… we finally arrived! From the 2 windows, we could see the frying, drying, seasoning and bagging process, which was pretty cool. Spotting the samples, I quickly indulged, deciding that a bag of the Sweet Potato Chips were ALL MINE! Dale loved the Dill Pickle flavor, Lindsey – the Salt & Vinegar and Tony had his culinary taste buds heading for more of the Chesapeake Crab flavor. Of course, the four of us all wanted to buy large bags of our favorite flavors. The staff must have thought we were crazy arguing over what bag to buy until I saw the ultimate compromise: The Route 11 Mini Combo pack. The only flavor missing in the combo was the Mama Zuma’s Revenge. It must have been our lucky day since they were making it while we watched! While we waited for a bag to come off the line, Tony spoke with Mike (one of the owners). The chips were still warm in the bag and we couldn’t wait to try one. We popped open the bag as we headed off to Pixie’s Café, a small locally owned restaurant that Mike recommended that was not far, in the historical downtown area of Mt. Jackson. Within 5 seconds, I realized why they named it Mama Zuma’s revenge - the delay in habenaro heat hit me hard! After just one chip, I started running to the car to retrieve my water bottle, clearly the wimp of our bunch. I was so glad that Mike had recommended Pixie’s. We had accidently drove through the downtown area earlier while trying to find their factory on the detour. Immediately I noticed the old timey movies theater marquis, an old home turned art gallery along with a mix of local shops with bric-a-brac. Within 5 minutes of getting seated, Mike showed up with a woman and sat at the table next to us. Since Tony had been talking with Mike at the factory so the two of them instantly started chatting again – surprising to me, since Tony is not typically a chatty Cathy. We all started laughing when Mike asked, “why we were running in their parking lot… were we all that hungry or in a hurry to leave their factory”? Enjoy your summer and happy trails to where-ever your next adventure takes you!

Our Featured Artist for June!

Patrick Henry

rom afar, I have admired the clean and highly stylized methods of local Berlin Artist, Patrick Henry. A native of the Eastern Shore, Henry’s work and collections have centered around Eastern Shore themes, expertly taking the viewer back in time. You probably have noticed his works as they adorn the walls of many hotel lobbies and restaurants in Ocean City and Berlin. This past December, I was lucky to get a sneak peak at his newest collection before it went off to the “My Piece of Earth” Opening in Baltimore – a tremendously successful event for him. He even showed me many unfinished pieces that will showcase cities around America, a new collection in the making with a brand new direction, inspired by his travels. You will love these works! Henry takes the viewer to places These newest works are still in his studio, tucked away off the main drag in Berlin in a location I promised not to reveal as he is very busy getting ready for his appearance as Berlin’s Artist of the Month – this month! Henry is transitioning into new works – very energetic and contemporary. His newest series is titled “About Berlin. Many of these and his other current works will be at Baked Dessert Café during the month of June, in historic downtown Berlin. The best place to get a sneak peak on Patrick Henry’s newest works is on facebook. Go to his facebook page “Henry Fine Arts Gallery.” By the way, if you picked up a signed print in the past, be aware that going forward Henry will only be selling original oils and commissions.

Editor’s Tip: I heard that fine art is appreciating faster than the stock market. When you see fine art you love, BUY IT!

The

Healing Rose

a woman goes through the W hen trauma of Breast Cancer, she

Sensory Garden

often feels alone, overwhelmed and confused by all of the medical terms and immediate changes in her life. Many people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to realize that multitude of physical and emotional scars that arise after breast cancer, such as frozen shoulder, limited arm movement, scar tissue and depression. There is a little known chronic illness program that has been run by Leigh Ann Eagle, Health & Wellness Director at MAC Inc. for the last 7 years. Leigh Ann is extremely passionate about helping breast cancer survivors. Her program offers integrated therapies that help a woman after she has had breast surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. When Leigh Ann meets a woman, it is at the beginning of healing. Her program offers wellness, nutrition, fitness, chiropractic services, which are provided by Dr. Marisa Carey (with Physical Therapy privileges), swimming and NOW a

healing garden. This spring, 24 breast cancer survivors will learn how to plant, water, weed and harvest organic vegetables while learning sustainability gardening techniques. Unique to this garden is that each woman agreed to have her biomarkers analyzed to determine the best vegetables needed to nourish her body chemistry. The program looks at the whole person (not just one organ or one system) and believes in finding the root cause of disease and sickness, not just treating the symptoms. Leigh Ann explained that often, the toxicity of the chemotherapy causes a woman to develop an overly fatty liver. She also mentioned that some foods can cause the human body to make too much or too little of certain hormones that can create havoc on the body recovering from cancer. Using a team approach, they have developed a plan to change out the vegetables to match the growing season, as well as the biomarkers of the survivor. When you have cancer,

what you eat matters. The Healing Garden is really a garden within a garden. This spring, fruit trees and a butterfly garden will be planted. The bees that are attracted will help to pollinate the organic herbs and raised bed gardens. Bamboo tee-pees, which were designed so that no one has to reach far into harvest, have been erected to support the pole beans that will climb the trellis in the weeks to come. 12 raised beds with 3 varying heights and maximum 4 feet across offer accommodations for the survivors, all designed with a comfortable woman’s arm reach in mind. Brightly colored paint stirrers mark each end of the bed with the names of the survivors who lovingly working their garden. Two women share one raised bed. Purposefully, the beds are not irrigated; rather, the women pull hoses and water them, working together or at their own pace – all part of the therapeutic nature of this garden. Heather Martin is their Organic Gardener and Verna Lankford is their Master Gardener for this project. Lucky for me, they were both working with survivors the day I stopped by.

Verna is a survivor too and I could overhear her speaking with a new survivor on various tips for coping with the after effects of breast cancer. The women are encouraged to bring their children too! It was easy to see the therapeutic impact already happening – these women were already gaining physical and emotional strength from their efforts in the garden. To bring the garden full circle, MAC Inc. is bringing in guest speaker Laura Pole - Oncology Nurse, Cancer Fighting Chef, and writer of Eating for a Lifetime: Cooking for People with Cancer on September 12, 2014. Learn about the role of nutrition throughout the cancer experience during this fun and informative class. Laura Pole will also demonstrate cooking with organic vegetables. Tickets are $25 and limited to the first 75 sold. If interested, contact MAC Inc.’s Health and Wellness Director Leigh Ann Eagle at (410)742-0505 ext. 136. This project would not be possible without the funding by Susan G. Komen, Rural Maryland, the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore Women’s Fund, and the work of many volunteers. The composted organic soil was generously donated by Blue Hen Organics of Delaware. To continue this project at MAC Inc., please contribute your dollars and time to their next big event, the Healing Rose 5K run/ 1 mile walk, A Woman’s Journey Through Cancer. This event will be held on September 13, 2014 at MAC Inc., which is located at 909 Progress Circle, Salisbury, Maryland.

LEGAL CORNER LEGAL CORNER LEGAL CORNER LEGA

“JUST ASK ANN” Dear Ann, I’m totally stressed out financially and don’t know whether to keep trying to pay my mortgage or not and don’t see any way to keep up with my credit card bills. I don’t know if I want to talk to a lawyer because I don’t want anybody else to know about the trouble I’m in. I’ve looked online and seen some, I guess they’re called debt consolidators, and kind of feel more comfortable going online, you know instead of face to face. And I think I’d feel more comfortable that way so nobody around here would know my business. But I don’t know whether to trust something online and send my money there either. Anonymously, what do you think? “Anonymously” 22

Dealing with a mortgage default or with unpaid credit cards can be a legal problem and might have a legal solution. So, first, let’s talk about attorney-client privilege. In almost all circumstances, when you meet with an attorney privately to talk about this kind of issue, attorney-client privilege applies. This means that the attorney you talk with must keep your conversation confidential and may not tell anybody else about the financial problems or other legal issues discussed. Even if your husband or your mother asks, the attorney cannot share your private information without your permission. Attorney-client privilege applies whether the attorney charges you for the private consultation or whether it is “free”. But notice that I used the term “private” twice in one paragraph. If you start sharing your personal information with an attorney you happen to meet at a party or see at church, you are not speaking to your attorney privately. A ‘public” conversation with an attorney is not protected by attorney-client privilege. The attorney might not say anything to anybody; but someone who overheard your conversation is not prohibited from telling others about it. Also always keep in mind that emails, which are written communications, are not always private. And social media such as Facebook and Twitter are never private. I have many consultations with new clients that begin, “I just didn’t want to come in here

NER LEGAL CORNER LEGAL CORNER LEGAL CORNER L and face you with this.” But to me it’s very important that I meet my clients “face to face”. There is a valuable “personal-ness” in a face to face conversation that is almost impossible to create online. And I find that by talking things over personally my clients often gain a different prospective and reassurance. Of course, I am an attorney, not a “debt consolidator”. Some of the clients I speak with have had satisfactory results with credit consolidators or debt consolidators. Some have had very bad experiences. The primary benefit you seem to see in resorting to an online debt consolidation service is anonymity. From my point of view, that is also the worst downside. If you are dealing with a company in the “cloud”, never face-to-face, how do you know who you’re really dealing with and whether they will be dealing fairly with you? If an online company takes your money and fails to provide the services you need, how can you get your money back? And what is your recourse? But, if you consult a local attorney instead, you are likely to run into her at the grocery store or Centre here. And, you know where that attorney’s office is. If there is a problem, the place to solve it will be right here. There is another important point: By definition, an online debt consolidation company is not an attorney admitted to the practice of law in this state. If the debt consolidation works, expect an affordable monthly payment plan or lump sum settlement to be negotiated. If it doesn’t work, expect a foreclosure on your

home or a lawsuit. You need an attorney who can go to court for you here to help you deal with a pending foreclosure or a lawsuit. I have heard some very sad stories from people who kept sending the out-of-state debt consolidator monthly payments until their homes were sold at foreclosure or their wages were garnished. Don’t be embarrassed about your predicament or blame yourself. In this economy with so many job losses and such stagnation, many people are finding themselves in financial quagmires they never expected. Such financial stress can be overwhelming and can lead to other equally overwhelming stresses in your life. Try not to let it lead to bad decisions. Good luck, Ann Ann Shaw is an attorney practicing in Salisbury. She has more than twenty years’ real estate, business law, and bankruptcy law experience. Each month she will address one submitted question of general interest. Responding to any question in print does not create an attorney-client relationship.

START SAVING TODAY FOR TOMORROW’S COLLEGE BILLS Another school year is drawing to a close. If you have young children, you might be planning for their summer activities. But you also might want to look even farther into the future — to the day when your kids say “goodbye” to their local schools and “hello” to their college dormitories. When that day arrives, will you be financially prepared to pay for the high costs of higher education? Consider this: For the 2013–2014 academic year, the average cost (tuition, fees, room and board) was $18,391 for an instate student at a four-year public college or university, and $40,917 for a private school, according to the College Board. And these costs may well be considerably higher by the time your children enter college. Of course, these are just the “sticker” prices; some families pay less, thanks to grants and tax benefits, such as the American Opportunity Tax Credit and the Lifetime Learning Tax Credit. Still, you may encounter some hefty college bills down the road. But college is still a good investment in your child’s future. Over an adult’s working

life, an individual with a bachelor’s degree can expect to earn, on average, nearly $1 million more than someone with only a high school diploma, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. So you’re saving for a good cause. Unfortunately, you may not be saving enough — or you might not be making the most of your savings. To save for college, more parents use a general savings account than any other method, according to Sallie Mae’s How America Saves for College 2014 study. These types of accounts carry two significant drawbacks: They typically earn tiny returns and they offer no tax advantages. However, you do you have some attractive college-funding vehicles available, one of which is a 529 plan. Your 529 plan earnings accumulate tax free, provided they are used for qualified higher education expenses. (529 plan distributions not used for qualified expenses may be subject to federal and state income tax and a 10% IRS penalty.) Furthermore, your 529 plan contributions may be deductible from your state taxes. But 529 plans vary, so be sure to check with your

‘Totally Tangerine’

contributed by Ginny Rosenkranz

eum chiloense ‘Totally Tangerine’ is an herbaceous perennial that has bright, five-petaled flowers with a clump forming dark to olive green pinnately lobed foliage. Hardy in USDA zones 4-7, this new cultivar is sterile, allowing it to bloom 5 times more than the usual cultivar, producing hundreds of blooms throughout the season. The flowers begin blooming in the late spring and continue into the heat of summer with pale apricot to tangerine colored petals on strong fuzzy stems that grow 2 – 2 ½ feet tall and 18 inches wide. Full sun will give the best flowers, and a rich but well drained, neutral pH soil will insure a healthy plant. Geum ‘Totally Tangerine’ is a butterfly magnet and resistant to both rabbits and deer. Great for small gardens, English cottage gardens or rock gardens. Aphids are the most common insect pest, with black vine weevil, leafminers and spidermites seen occasionally. Diseases include Botrytis, downy mildew, powdery mildew, root rots and rust are the occasional disease problems.

Coming to Salisbury!

June 20, 2014 - 8:00 pm Bill Cosby’s Comedy Central “Far From Finished” Tour o not miss the iconic Bill Cosby on his D sell-out Comedy Central “Far From Finished”Tour. One of America’s most beloved

comedians of all time, Bill Cosby, whose comedy transcends age, gender and cultural barriers, is making a rare appearance at the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center on Friday, June 20 at 8 p.m. Cosby has captivated generations of fans with his comedy routines, iconic albums and best-selling books, including "Fatherhood," "Time Flies" and his current bestseller, "I Didn’t Ask to Be Born, (But I’m Glad I Was.)" Bill Cosby broke television’s racial barrier with "I Spy," becoming the first African American to co-star on a television series while winning three consecutive Emmys. He created and produced the Emmy-winning

cartoon "Fat Albert" and the "Cosby Kids," which began airing in the 1970s and was made into a film in 2004. The show, based upon Cosby’s childhood in Philadelphia, was designed to educate and entertain. The former Navy serviceman’s illustrious list of accomplishments includes roles on the children’s educational show "Electric Company" and creating and producing the Emmy award winning "Little Bill," which is based on his bestselling book series. Cosby has received the Kennedy Center Honors, the Presidential Medal of Freedom (America’s highest civilian honor), the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor and the Marian Anderson Award. Among his many awards for his stand-up comedy albums are five Grammy Awards, eight Gold and five Platinum records.

Perhaps Cosby’s greatest contribution to American entertainment and culture is "The Cosby Show," about a close-knit, upper class black family. Cosby said his intent was to portray an American family. Time magazine called the show “an encouraging sign of maturity in matters of race.” "The Cosby Show" dominated the No. 1 spot for years, earning nearly unanimous critical praise.

Life magazine described the program as “a gentle, whimsical, warmhearted” show whose “delicious ordinariness of its pleasures and tribulations has given millions a fresh, laughter-splashed perspective on their own Tickets on sale now at Wicomico Youth & Civic Center, http://www.wicomicociviccenter.org/events-listings/ bill-cosbys-comedy-central-tour-far-from-finished 410548-4900 x142. $38.50 to $84 plus fees.

lackwell Library at Salisbury University created a unique approach to a community hunger problem. Why not pay library fees and fines with food? Blackwell Library hosted â&#x20AC;&#x153;Food for Finesâ&#x20AC;? in May. Students and community users with late fines accrued in the past 30 days may help feed the hungry by bringing in non-expired canned and other non-perishable food to the Circulation Desk. Each item of food waived $2 in fines owed, with a maximum of $10. Donations need not be limited to fine amounts. The offer was valid only on SU fines. 34

Of course, community borrowers from Wicomico, Somerset, Worcester and Dorchester counties were encouraged to participate. At the time of this printing, food was collected and will be donated to Hope and Life Outreach (HALO) Ministries. They will continue to accept donations throughout the month of June.

his spring the Wednesday Morning Artists have been busy turning six solid wood white Adirondack chairs from "Plain Jane" to artistic splendor.

You can see the chairs and their locations at WednesdayMorningArtists.com. With each chair is a silent auction bidding sheet, enabling perspective buyers to record their bids. In mid-May, the chairs were moved to before the Dorchester Center for the Arts where the silent auction will continue until Opening Night on June 7, 2014.

The event will include childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activities, health information, snacks and door prizes. Admission is FREE to the public.

In Maryland, more than 1.3 million residents volunteer each year, providing valuable skill, expertise and time to local organizations supporting everything from disaster relief to environmental clean-up and much more! Volunteering can provide a wide range of benefits such as building a stronger connection to the community, enhancing skills, making a difference in the lives of others, networking with potential employers and meeting service learning requirements.

nflexible Ir egulations

giving ‘GREEN’ a black eye Contributed by Tom Horton

get so tired of the almighty dollar dominating our society that I sometimes forget: While the sustainable world we environmentalists seek is about so much more, economic sustainability is crucial. Which brings me to farmer Ted Wycall, of Greenbranch Organic Farm on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Ted’s delicious food is a beacon of hope in a landscape of industrial farming with its impacts on Bay water quality. His free-range chickens, grass-fed beef, organic veggies, and pork from hogs that root acorns in his woods are a path we greenies favor for the planet—a local economy that is good for the soil, good for our health.

His little farm store hums with customers glad to pay more than supermarket price for the food, for the Earth. Ted had planned to expand, in this, his seventh year of farming the land he inherited from his grandfather. But recently, with frustration and some bitterness, he said he is close to moving to Montana, where he went to college, where “there are almost no rules.” Rules have hammered farmer Ted recently, thwarting his expansion, locking him in to a future, as he sees it, where the living he’s barely making is “all I’ll ever have.” Ironically, the rules are those we environmentalists labored to pass to restore the

Chesapeake Bay: requiring cleaner septic tanks, less stormwater runoff and a halt to the buildup of phosphorus in farm fields. Ted’s plan was to increase sales and production to boost his income—“about what a (Wicomico) county teacher makes,” enough to live on, but not to retire, or pay the latest $8,000 tractor repair. He would have moved his 54-foot-square market onto 60 acres that link his farm to a busy road, where more customers would stop. But highway officials said he’d have to spend $50,000 for a “deceleration lane” for his roadside market, never mind that nearby crossroads don’t have any. He could avoid that by running an access drive off a side road; but the impervious surface of that driveway, plus that of his market building, would entail stormwater

pollution expenditures of more than $20,000, plus weekly paperwork he has no time for. He’d actually be removing more impervious surface (old farm buildings) than he’d create; but because those buildings predate stormwater regulations, he’d get no credit for that, the Maryland Department of the Environment confirmed. A state-of-the-art septic tank to handle wastes would be $15,000 or more. They can be built for much less, but regulations require such systems be certified. This has winnowed the field to a few outfits that provide only top-of-the-line units. Ted’s requests to substitute a waterless, composting toilet, used extensively by groups like the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and National Park Service, were rejected by the county. So was his argument that new greenhouses he needs to expand on his current farm be exempted from stormwater rules: “You are a continued on page 48

developer,” said a dismissive e-mail from a county official. He also fears being stymied from spreading the composted leaves from his woods to build his soil’s organic content by proposed rules limiting phosphorus in farm soils. His soils test high in phosphorus (though not high enough to feed his veggies), a legacy of commercial chicken farming by his grandfather. “I don’t think anyone should have the right to pollute, because that violates other rights like the right to clean water,” Ted said. “But my land is flat and so well-drained that there’s no standing water, let alone runoff even after 6– to 8-inch rains. Regulations should target pollution effectively, not crush people like me.” I’m not about to endorse making Ted a poster child for trashing these rules. I support every one of them. But his shaky economic situation, all too common among sustainable farmers, should give us pause. If we want what Ted offers, it will take more than shopping green at Greenbranch Farm. It will mean working through unintended consequences of our regulations; it will mean engaging more actively with supporting the systems of food production we say we want, and ending subsidies to those we don’t. It’s an overdue reassessment that goes beyond the greening of agriculture, to green

energy, green transportation and green housing, said journalist Heather Rogers in her provocative and highly recommended book, “Green Gone Wrong.” The sustainability solutions we’re embracing, consuming “green” products, often ignore the more difficult tasks of reforming a fundamentally unsustainable economy that dwarfs our good intentions. “No matter how much we as consumers want local, ecologically responsible food, the people who make it may well go extinct,” she concludes. As for Ted, he will soon have to sell his new land, which ironically could become a seven-unit housing development under Wicomico’s zoning that is allegedly designed to protect farming.

THE

BLACKSMITH BAR & RESTAURANT

Serving Eastern Shore Eclectic By Ron Pilling

alking into the side door of The Blacksmith the other evening I couldn’t help but think of all the other dining establishments that had tried and failed in this out-of-the way spot in Berlin. There was a recent grill specializing in hot dogs, a deli before that (I think, it’s getting kind of hazy now) and who knows how many other restaurants since the last horse was shod in the low, nondescript building. Other local eateries, in other locations, had pursued the “special-twist-on-Eastern-Shore-cuisine” theme, some with some success, others without, probably because diners weren’t quite ready for a BLT with a fried tomato on raisin bread. But The Blacksmith has what it takes, and arrives when Berlin’s restaurant scene is burgeoning. Chef Tony Gilbert, and co-owners Justine Zegna and Drew Evans opened The Blacksmith to packed houses in late March. There is no regular, fixed, menu, and no plans to ever have one. The handwritten menu that was presented to us had just

enough ingredients that we recognized that we didn’t feel like complete culinary ignoramuses, seasoned with some that were totally unfamiliar. What is “smoked watermelon?” It’s exactly what you would think. Squash ketchup? I still couldn’t say, except that it isn’t Heinz. A “Bahn Mi?” I had to Google that, and it turns out that it’s what the Vietnamese call bread, French in this case, but I doubt that anyone in Ho Chi Min City is eating theirs wrapped around a chunk of scrapple and some pork shoulder. How about “Saba?” Googled that, too, and quickly decided that it was not the Sacramento Area Bicycling Association, but a few lines down I learned

that it’s a sauce comparable to thick Balsamic vinaigrette. Drizzled over Roasted Baby Artichokes, it’s pretty good. Emphasis is on using local ingredients in interesting ways. This isn’t all that unusual nowadays – every town has a restaurant that serves up “sustainability” alongside its daily special. The seafood comes mainly from the lower Eastern Shore, vegetables from local farms and beer from Burley Oak Brewery, a mostly- ale house that is a Berlin favorite. It can be intimidating, trying to look like a sophisticated eater while secretly wondering if a Cauliflower 3Way is really an entrée or if you think you’ll like hay oil. But the casual atmosphere has a tempering effect, and

given that most of the plates that passed us on their way to other tables had burgers on them, (double burgers, on a locally-baked brioche roll, with barbecued pickles) we were pretty comfortable with our choices. And yes, a Cauliflower 3Way is an entrée, a very good one, and chimichurri is not the name of a song from Mary Poppins. But you’ll have to Google that for yourselves.

Girdletreeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Historic Barnes Bank Six miles south of Snow Hill, on the way to Pocomoke, stands a quiet town named Girdletree. In the past Girdletree had been a thriving community and George L. Barnes, a prosperous merchant of the community, saw the need for a bank. The bank was built in 1901 and opened in January, 1902, operating under George L. Barnes & Company and closed in the 1930's. The Girdletree Barnes Bank is one of only two small banks remaining in Worcester County. It serves today as a museum, exhibiting items and memorabilia from this rural community's past. While no longer actively involved in banking pursuits such as issuing business checks and protecting and investing one's fortune(s), a large walk-in vault is being restored - so you can see how it might have been done in the (not so distant) past. The structure is brick with stone sills. The roof is slate with metal cornice trim and cresting. The museum is open May through September on Wednesday and Saturday from 1:00 - 4:00. In addition, group tours may be scheduled.
