Visitors enjoy annual ‘Taste’ Camp Sloper honors supporters By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff

YMCA Camp Sloper held its Member Appreciation Picnic at the camp on July 25. The honorees were: Most Frequent Y’er for attendance in 2018 Nicholas Leadbeater; Volunteer of the Year, for his work in 2018, Paul Sirois; Hall of Fame 2019 honorees, Terri Connellan, Barbara Glaude, Pat and Bethany Rosin. The event also celebrated the life and generosity of YMCA donor George Moore. See more photos, pages 55-56.

Visitors to the Taste of Southington were able to enjoy food, history and music under clear skies Thursday, Aug. 8. The celebration, held annually at the Barnes Museum downtown, was originally planned for Wednesday, Aug. 7, but postponed as organizers saw thunderstorms in the forecast. Marie Secondo, museum curator, said all but two of the food vendors made the new date. Previous years have been hampered by rain. Paula Fontana was glad for the weather and a chance to try pizza from Craft Kitchen, one of nearly a dozen food vendors who had tents along the walkway on the Barnes Museum lawn. She got macaroni and cheese

pizza and was impressed. “I wanted to come and try the food,” she said. Among the food vendors was Sherman’s Taphouse, a Center Street restaurant

that opened in May. General manager James Welch said the restaurant brought wings, a customer favorite, and a dessert to the tasting. See Taste, A10

Spin Doctors to play festival By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff

The ‘90s rock band Spin Doctors will perform at this year’s Apple Harvest Festival, the second national band to take the stage in as many years at the town’s signature celebration. Last year, Bowling For Soup performed. At a July 25 Member Appreciation Picnic, Rose Moore accepts an award on behalf of her late husband George Moore, who was acknowledged as the donor of the year, from Mark Pooler, CEO of the Southington YMCA. Photos by Patrick Matthews

Chris Palmieri, Apple Harvest Festival committee and Town Council chairman, announced the band during Monday’s council meeting.

“Last year’s band was 2000s, now it’s ‘90s,” Palmieri said. “It’s a little different demographic. I think it’s going to be great and we’re going to welcome a lot of people to the festival.” Spin Doctors’ hits include “Two Princes” and “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong” from the early 1990s. The band broke up in the late 1990s but re-formed in 2001. It has toured and released albums since. John Barry, a Town Council

member, said the response was great to the presence of a widely known band at last year’s festival and that the crowds were packed to hear Bowling for Soup. “People loved it, it was so well attended,” Barry said. Festival leaders chose a nationally recognized band for last year’s festival, which was the 50th. Palmieri said he was looking forward to another popular band playing in October.

Abandoned puppy receives care, needs home Police are investigating suspected animal cruelty after a Good Samaritan found a puppy abandoned on West Center Street — near the Eightmile River State Access Area — early Thursday afternoon, Aug. 8. Police said the puppy, described as a male beagle mix, was lethargic and showed signs of severe neglect when the department’s animal control officer responded around 12:30 p.m. Police brought the puppy to a local veterinarian for emergency treatment. The circumstances that led to the puppy’s abandonment have yet to be determined. Police are asking anyone with information to contact Detective James Armack by

calling 806-378-1649 or emailing him at jarmack@ southingtonpolice.org. Linda Pleva, treasurer and vice president of the statewide animal law advocacy group, Desmond’s Army, said cases of animal abuse appear to be happening more frequently — or at least are being reported more often than in the past. Pleva urged those who have an animal they can no longer care for to surrender them in a responsible way. “We have many shelters in Connecticut, many of which will take in a cat or a dog,” Pleva said. “There’s also your local animal control officer. That’s part of their job, to take surrenders for people who can no longer take care of an animal.” In the Southington case, Pleva said she hopes first and

1. To qualify for the advertised APY, you must enroll your new or existing Platinum Savings account in this offer between 07/08/2019 and 08/30/2019 by speaking to a banker and requesting the special rate. Offer is subject to change at any time, without notice, and is available only to Platinum Savings customers in the following states: CT, DE, FL, NJ, NY, PA. In order to earn the Special Interest Rate of 1.98% (Special Rate), you must deposit $25,000 in new money to the enrolled savings account and maintain a minimum daily account balance of $25,000 throughout the promotional interest rate period. “New money” is money from sources outside of the customer’s current relationship with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or its affiliates (which includes all deposit, brokerage and loan/credit accounts). The corresponding Annual Percentage Yield (APY) for this offer is 2.00%. The Special Rate will be applied to the enrolled savings account for a period of 12 months, starting on the date the account is enrolled in the offer. However, for any day during that 12 month period that the daily account balance is less than the $25,000, the enrolled account will not be eligible for the Special Rate and will instead earn the applicable Standard Interest Rate for a Platinum Savings account. As of 05/31/2019, the Standard Interest Rate and APY for a Platinum Savings account in CT, FL, NJ and NY with an account balance of $0.01 and above is 0.05% (0.05% APY); and for a Platinum Savings account in DE and PA with an account balance of $0.01 to $99,999.99 is 0.05% (0.05% APY) and with an account balance of $100,000 and above is 0.10% (0.10% APY). Each tier shown reflects the current minimum daily collected balance required to obtain the applicable APY. Interest is compounded daily and paid monthly. The amount of interest earned is based on the daily collected balances in the account. Upon the expiration of the 12 month promotional period, then-current Standard Interest Rates apply. Minimum to open a Platinum Savings account is $25. A monthly service fee of $12 applies in any month the account falls below a $3,500 minimum daily balance. Fees may reduce earnings. Interest rates are variable and subject to change without notice. Wells Fargo may limit the amount you deposit to a Platinum Savings account to an aggregate of $1 million. 2. Available in-branch only; you must speak with a banker to request the special rate. Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is effective for accounts opened between 07/08/2019 and 08/30/2019 and requires a minimum of $25,000 in new money brought to Wells Fargo. “New money” is money from sources outside of the customer’s current relationship with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or its affiliates (which includes deposit, brokerage and loan/credit accounts). Public Funds and Wholesale accounts are not eligible for this offer. APY assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. Interest is compounded daily. Payment of interest on CDs is based on term: For terms less than 12 months (365 days), interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or at maturity (the end of the term). For terms of 12 months or more, interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. A penalty for early withdrawal will be imposed and could reduce earnings on this account. Special Rates are applicable to the initial term of the CD only. At maturity, the special rate CD will automatically renew for a term of 6 months, at the interest rate and APY in effect for CDs on renewal date not subject to a Special Rate, unless the Bank has notified you otherwise. 1., 2. Due to the new money requirement, new accounts may only be opened at your local branch and you must speak to a banker to request the special rate offers for both new and existing accounts. Wells Fargo reserves the right to modify or discontinue the offer at any time without notice. Minimum new money deposit requirement of at least $25,000 is for this offer only and cannot be transferred to another account to qualify for any other consumer deposit offer. If you wish to take advantage of another consumer deposit offer requiring a minimum new money deposit, you will be required to do so with another new money deposit as stated in the offer requirements and qualifications. Offer cannot be: • Combined with any other consumer deposit offer. • Reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded. 3. The Portfolio by Wells Fargo program has a $30 monthly service fee, which can be avoided when you have one of the following qualifying balances: $25,000 or more in qualifying linked bank deposit accounts (checking, savings, CDs, FDIC-insured IRAs) or $50,000 or more in any combination of qualifying linked banking, brokerage (available through Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC) and credit balances (including 10% of mortgage balances, certain mortgages not eligible). If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the bonus interest rate on all eligible savings accounts, and discounts or fee waivers on other products and services, will discontinue and revert to the Bank’s then-current applicable standard interest rate or fee. For bonus interest rates on time accounts, this change will occur upon renewal. If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the remaining unlinked Wells Fargo Portfolio Checking or Wells Fargo Prime Checking account will be converted to another checking product or closed. © 2019 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Education funds to be transferred into savings By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff

The Board of Finance voted Surpluses from the 2018-19

fiscal year can be carried forward into future years thanks to a state statute. While it’s been in place for several years, this is the first year Southington has used the method. Schools’ Superintendent Tim Connellan said the leftover funds can go to address a “growing list” of deferred projects. He cited the replacement of the 30-year old Southington High School auditorium curtain at a cost of $25,000 as an example. Connellan has been trying to get the replacement funded for five years. “Those are things that we as a community haven’t been able to fund through the op-

erating budget but they are things that have to be done at some point in time,” he said. “We have the opportunity to do some things to our buildings that are needed and that are going to need to be done at some point.” Tony Morrison, a Republican finance board member, had concerns that the amount of leftover funds wasn’t final and that Connellan wasn’t sure which projects would be funded. Connellan said the board would set priorities once it knew the exact amount of money carried forward. Morrison suggested the board wait until September

“It’s hard to approve something if you don’t know how much it is and what it’s going to be used for,” he said. “If you don’t need the money immediately there’s no emergency.” Connellan said none of the projects would take place before September. Changes to the amount would come back to the finance board for approval. “I think it’s covered, I think it’s well thought out, wellplanned,” said Susan Zoni, a finance board Democrat. jbuchanan@record-journal.com 203-317-2230

Rogers Orchards peach fest Sunday and bakery items.

Rogers Orchards is open for its 210th season, offering visitors fresh produce like peaches, tomatoes and corn. “All things are looking good here and we’re excited to have another harvest,” copresident Peter Rogers said. The 400-acre farm started with growing apples, which is still its main produce, but the harvest season always starts with peaches. Rogers said this summer’s heat and humidity has been good for the crops. “They respond really well and I think given how hot it’s been… it’s just going to add flavor to the stuff that we (offer) here,” he said. The farm has two countrystore locations – 287 Meriden-Waterbury Turnpike and 336 Long Bottom Road. Both offer the same produce

Victoria Germano, retail manager, said peaches, corn and apple cider donuts are her favorites. She has been working for the family-run business for nine seasons. “Everything here is treated with care,” Germano said. “We want people to have a great experience coming in … and (leave) with smiles.”

The store currently has Harbelle and Garnet Beauty peaches, and will harvest about six other varieties through September. Apricots and plums grown on the farm are also available this time of year. Pears, nectarines and some apples will be available next month.

Instead of proceeding based on what you’ve heard from others, doing nothing, or enlisting a non-lawyer referred by a nursing home, you can hire an elder law attorney. Here are a few reasons you should at least consider this option: • No conflict of interest. When nursing homes refer families to non-lawyers to assist in preparing the Medicaid application, the preparer has dual loyalties, to the facility that provides the referrals and to the client applying for benefits. To the extent everyone wants the Medicaid application to be successful, there’s no conflict of interest. But it’s in the nursing home’s interest that the resident pay privately for as long as possible before going on Medicaid, while it’s in the resident’s interest to protect assets for care or for the resident’s spouse or family.

Local woman killed in Plainville crash hicle significantly off the roadway, Plainville Police Sergeant John Quilter wrote in a statement. Quilter said Santana appeared to have been ejected from the vehicle and was found deceased prior to the arrival of first responders. Plainville Fire Chief Kevin Toner said the time of the crash was not known on

Sunday afternoon, but multiple residents reported to him that they heard sounds of a crash early Sunday morning.

SOUTHINGTON – Police charged a New Haven man with breaking into a Meriden-Waterbury Road gas station last year and stealing more than $3,000 worth of cigarettes.

Ledge Road was closed for several hours while the vehicle was removed and evidence was collected. The road has since been reopened.

James Jones, 52, of New Haven, was charged last week with third-degree burglary, third-degree larceny and first-degree criminal mischief.

Police said Jones used a cinder block to break into the Gulf Gas Station and Convenience Store last August. A total of 34 cartons of cigarettes were taken.

PLAINVILLE — Police identified the woman killed when her vehicle crashed through a guard rail and went down a steep ridge as Southington resident Denise Santana.

Santana, 35, was the sole occupant of a vehicle found at the base of the ridge after police were notified of damage to a guardrail in the area of 102 Ledge Road at approximately 3:27 p.m. on Sunday.

Seen & Heard: Plenty of summer left to savor By Olivia L. Lawrence The Citizen

It seems every conversation in recent days has started something like this: “I can’t believe it’s August already” or “summer has gone by so fast.” Some people have theories about this. The wet spring that extended into June cut off a typically nice piece of summer, the hot spell in July kept us from our favorite activities. A few mentioned

that time seems to be going faster now that they’ve reached a certain age. By the time these words are in your hands, August will be halfway over. Let’s not even mention Labor Day or back-to-school – there was that one time a slightly irate reader complained that by speaking of such things in August we weren’t savoring summer, we weren’t living in the moment. Point taken.

With all of that in mind, perhaps there is a way to make summer linger, to take in those last glorious golden days and indulge ourselves with the fun, the laziness, the steadfast belief we had as children that all of this wonderfulness can go on and on.

To help with that illusion or, less cynically, to make the most of the summer days that are left, here’s a reminder about a few of the best things to take advantage of as the season winds down. It ain’t over yet, folks.

Summer

Police crack down on ATVs

From A7

Southington police will be patrolling town and Water Department land in an entirely reasonable effort to curtail illegal ATV and dirt bike use. They are not out to spoil anyone’s fun; they are simply trying to keep irresponsible riders of those machines from spoiling town trails and dams. Illegal riders damaged trails and dams at local reservoirs this past spring when the ground was muddy. Tearing up the grass on dams leads to erosion that could eventually cause the dams to fail. Damage from recreational riding must be repaired, and that costs the taxpayers money.

ty when illegal riders are hurt. ATVs and dirt bikes aren't allowed on public or Water Department land and can only be ridden on private land with the owner's permission. Illegal riders of these machines are a problem in many Connecticut towns, where they play cat-and-mouse with local authorities. Southington is well justified in going after them.

In addition, residents who seek to peacefully enjoy hiking on the town’s openspace parcels sometimes find their recreation ruined by hard-charging ATV, dirt bike and quad riders. "Somebody's out there with family, walking through," said police Lt. Stephen Elliott. "They don't really want a quad tearing by them." Therefore, police will be conducting extra patrols on ATVs in an attempt to make arrests. Elliott said he hopes the word gets out that police will be cracking down. "Maybe they won't be there and won't go there," he said. "There's a preventative part of this, too." The Water Department is providing the police with ATV “hotspots” based on where tracks and damage often occur. These incidents also expose the town to potential liabili-

Sears, visiting from North Carolina, got a tour of the museum for the first time Thursday. They remarked over the antique stove, washing machine and other kitchen tools. Schaaf said she’d like to come back for a full tour. She moved to Southington about a year ago and Thursday was also her first time attending the Taste of Southington. The two had set up their chairs for Music on the Green, which was also moved from Wednesday to Thursday. After the tour, they were heading to get something to eat. “We checked out all the food first,” Sears said.
