Korn closing still moving forward

By Mark Dionne Town Times

District 13 officials, and, particularly, the Board of Education’s subcommittee called the Utilization Committee, continue to study the possibilities and methods surrounding closing Korn Elementary School after the 2015-2016 school year.

Part of those plans involve public engagement.

At the Utilization Committee’s Aug. 6 meeting, committee members discussed public outreach, which will soon include a completed Frequently Asked Ques-

tions document and a community forum to be held in early October.

At the end of the last school year, the Utilization Committee released what it called an “Interim Report,” partially to narrow the focus from the different responses to declining enrollment to a single approach and also to engage the public.

The Utilization Committee, chaired by BOE member Bob Fulton and made up of BOE members Merrill Adams, Norm Hicks and BOE chair Kerrie Flanagan, See Closing / Page 6

Democrats From Page 1

initially put forth a slate of six total candidates. By contrast, the Durham Republicans put forth a slate of 18 candidates.

Out of 4,936 total registered voters in Durham, 1,136 are registered as Democrats and 1,380 as Republicans.

While the number of registered voters favors Republicans, the voting results in Durham have leaned even more significantly to the GOP in recent elections.

The Democrats are adding a seventh candidate, Christine Geraci, to their slate. Geraci is petitioning onto the ballot and will challenge incumbent Wendy Manemeit for the position of Town Treasurer.

Geraci holds an MBA in Business Management and has worked as a corporate accountant. “[H]aving a financial job in the government sector would be fantastic and something I have always desired,” Geraci said via e-mail. “We absolutely love the small community of Durham and I would be thrilled to help our town!”

“I’m super impressed with her,” Dede Levy said of their addition to the Democratic slate.

peatedly noted the difficulty in finding candidates for First Selectman, saying that the candidates are often a rare combination of professionals who are both retired but still willing to work full time.

The previous contest for First Selectman in Durham was not close. In 2011, Francis defeated Roger Kleeman by a margin of 1,653 to 557.

Although there will be other candidates for the Board of Selectmen, even if they win more votes than Francis, they will not win the office of First Selectman.

The Democrats have nominated incumbent Selectman Steve Levy, Dede’s husband, for Selectman.

The Durham Republicans endorsed Rob Raney over incumbent John Szewczyk at their meeting, but Szewczyk has made plans for a Republican primary to determine the party’s candidate.

The Democrats’ nominating committee, made up of 7-9 members of the Democratic Town Committee, searches for candidates for each election.

Martin French, incumbent Tax Collector, chairs the committee. According to Dede Levy, the committee looks for people who

know the town and would make good candidates but it can be hard to find candidates for the mostly unpaid positions.

“What would happen to this town if people didn’t want to volunteer any more?” she asked.

Dede Levy said it was disappointing to come up empty searching for a candidate for First Selectman, which is a paid position, because she thought Francis would be vulnerable this election year, partially because of unhappiness over the failed solar farm project.

The switch from Szewczyk to Raney for Selectman candidate also showed an opportunity for a close contest, according to Levy.

“The divisiveness in her own party makes her vulnerable,” she said.

The Durham Republicans use a caucus system for their nominations, but Dede Levy likes the committee approach. “I think caucuses can be difficult ... you don’t know what can happen,” she said. The nominating committee takes recommendations, and nominations can also be made from the floor.

Area animal shelters are coming together to participate in national adoption event, “Clear the Shelters,� in cooperation with NBC Connecticut.

As part of this effort, on Saturday, Aug. 15, numerous shelters both across Connecticut and the entire United States will offer reduced adoption fees to encourage more families to take in homeless animals. “Summer is a horrible time for adoptions in any shelter,�

Berlin Animal Control Officer Jan Lund said.

The Clear the Shelters initiative started last year. “It was at our sister station in Dallas Fort Worth and it was

a huge success, so it’s going national this year. The purpose of the event is to raise awareness of the importance of animal shelters and to get animals out of the shelters,� said Laura Gremelsbacker, NBC Connecticut director of community and public relations. The Connecticut Humane Society and many other groups are taking part in the event. “We are full with animals and we hope this event makes people aware that Connecticut has many shelters and rescues and we need their help,� Lund said. “Berlin Animal Control has had four dogs and three cats abandoned in the last five

Flirting with other people’s houses

all I can do to not wander from room to room, to head upstairs, to poke my nose into every nook and cranny.

Which would be a bit awkward if I’m meeting the residents for the first time.

I want to know the house’s story, intimately. Who passed through here in days gone by? A family? Was he a farmer? Did she darn socks and churn butter? Did children run through the halls?

Did the cold creep into the walls and shadow them the whole winter long? Did they gather every night around the fire and spin yarns? Who occupied this chair upon which I now sit? Within five minutes of coming through the front door, I am drawn into their lives.

Then, of course, there are those magnificent houses on the beach. I don’t know anyone who has a magnificent house on the beach, so I must be content with conjuring up a life within its walls as I walk by. And conjure I do. Fantasies tumble around in my head, one after another. Oh, I see they have a big porch facing the water. That’s where I’ll meet the day, stretched out in that plush chaise lounge, sipping green tea. I’ll watch the night give way to the day. I’ll let the morning sky dazzle me with its show.

Well, provided I didn’t stay up too late the night before watching a Netflix movie.

I’ll have lunch out here, too, Medically supervised

I’ve been cheating on my house. Well, in my head anyway. But let’s just keep that between us, okay?

Normally I am very content with my 980 square feet.

It’s my palace, my sanctuary, my place to recharge (from what, I’m not sure). I love it here. But then I cross the thresholds of other people’s houses, and I want to live there. I’m especially enamored with houses that were born in a much earlier time, like the 1700s or the 1800s.

and I’ll spend entire rainy days out here, reading. In the afternoon I will walk the few steps to the water and swim for hours, as I am wont to do. Even the nights will hold treasures, as I can look out those picture windows that wrap all around the house and I can see the moon dancing on the water.

As you may have surmised by now, my days of swimming and porch-sitting and reading hint at having won the lottery, with no worries whatsoever regarding how to keep body and soul together.

I actually do have a dream house. We all have one, don’t we? A friend of mine used to live in it, and I have never been able to get it out of my head. It’s nothing so grand as a mansion on the beach, but it matches my spirit perfectly. It’s of a modest size, with floor-to-ceiling windows that make me feel like I’m outside, even when I’m not. There are scads of birds flitting about and a deck and a raging river and a Buddha statue sitting by the river and huge sliding glass doors in the master bedroom that open out to the woods. I will have my morning tea on the deck, and then I’ll get to work writing that bestselling novel. It’s my fifth one. (And yes, I would be happy to sign a copy for you!)

A revaluation of all properties in the town of Durham is currently being undertaken by the Assessor’s Office. The Town has contracted Tyler Technologies Assessment and Tax Division, CLT, to perform a revaluation of all real property within the Town.

The last revaluation was done 5 years ago. Because property values have changed over time, inequities have emerged. The State of Connecticut recognizes the need for periodic revaluations and currently requires all cities and towns to perform a revaluation every five years.

The CLT Project Supervisor has met with the Assessor to review the procedures and schedule the necessary activities required for a successful revaluation.

Officials continue to move forward with plans to close Korn Elementary School in 2016. | Mark Dionne / Town Times

Closing Kathryn Veronesi, who regularly attends the Utilization Committee meetings, said that Memorial could accommodate four fourth grade classrooms as a temporary solution. “It will be tight [but] our feeling is that it will be a good move for a year,” Veronesi said.

The Interim Report supports closing Korn after 20152016, reading, “Based on the educational programming needs of our students as well as the existing building capacity and current enrollments it is clear that Korn School can be closed at the end of the 2015/16 school year.”

As that quote suggests, Fulton and Flanagan always make sure to indicate that the educational needs of the students are part of their planning.

Questions about class sizes have been part of the public feedback.

At the Aug. 6 meeting, officials emphasized that class sizes were always a concern of the BOE, regardless where those classrooms are. Projected Contemporary class sizes for third and fourth grade range from 17 to 20.

“We’re staying at the low end, with the numbers we have,” Veronesi said.

The Utilization Committee will continue to meet in advance of the public forum, with scheduled meetings on Thursday, Aug. 20, Thursday, Sept. 3, and Tuesday, Sept.

22. The committee meets at 6 p.m. in the Central Office Building.

From Page 1

has already endorsed moving D13 to a configuration of two K-5 schools, one 6-8 school, and one high school.

This configuration, which would involve closing two schools, is known as “Option C-3,” from the study issued

by Drummey Rosane Anderson in Sept. 2014.

The full BOE has not voted on closing Korn after this coming school year, although there have been no strong objections from board members at past meetings to the idea.

At the end of the previous school year, members said they wanted more public awareness before voting on closing a school.

A vote on closing Korn would likely take place in October, after the community forum. In November, school administrators have to begin planning their budgets for the following school year.

If Korn were to close, the Contemporary Program’s 2015-2016 second graders would remain at Brewster school for their third grade year. The 2015-2016 Contemporary third graders would move from Korn to Memorial school for their fourth grade year.

If it is not closed, Korn, which has a maximum number of 12 classrooms, is projected to use seven classrooms in 2015-2016. Future projections reduce the classroom need at Korn to five.

“I figured we’d hit 10,000 because when you ask Durham to step up, they do,” said Library Director Trish Connolly. “Almost 13,000 is incredible.”

Connolly previously said that the challenge was picked as a summer event to shake up the summer reading program and because it appeared to be an event that has not been done.

Library staff could not find a similar program at other libraries.

Connolly said she has spread the word of the program among other libraries and will submit it to the Connecticut Library Association, which recognizes notable programs.

“The staff did an exceptional job this summer,” Connolly said.

The top five young adult readers during the program were Owen Lussier, Rebecca Denhart, Augustine Mercugliano, Sadie Leiler and Catherine Mercugliano.

The top five adult readers were Janet Yura, Danielle Helenski, Carleen Rothert, Darren Fleck and Rosemarie Naples.

summer’s superhero theme with kids and some adults in costume.

Todd Brodeur of frisbeeshows.com put on a frisbee demonstration and led children in frisbee dancing. The party also featured a Mr. Magic show, Perk on Wheels and an ice cream truck, face painting and carnival-style games.

The party ended with raffle drawings using the tickets readers collected during the program.

Some readers elected to drop their tickets into a charity jar instead of a raffle jar, with each ticket triggering a $1 donation from the Teen Advisory Group’s bake sale and an anonymous donor.

The charity jar tallied nearly $800, which will be donated to Book Aid International, a group that supports libraries in poor areas of Africa.

The motto of Book Aid International is “Books Change Lives.”

Sports

A memorable week for local players On Friday, July 24, 12 members of the Coginchaug Intermediate (50-70) baseball team and their coaches participated in the Opening Ceremonies of the Little League East Regional tournament in East Northport, Long Island.

That would be the start of a week of baseball like nothing Coginchaug Little League had ever been a part of before.

This was the first baseball team from the league to ever play in an East Regional event. Coginchaug softball teams participated in East Regional tournaments in 1974 (Durham LL), 1993 and 1995.

In Long Island, the Coginchaug Intermediate baseball team got a first-day bye, so following the ceremonies, the locals got a look at the co m p e t i t i o n , w i t h fo u r other games played that afternoon.

Some of it looked awfully good, especially the New Hampshire and Commack (NY) teams that were in their pool.

Coginchaug opened play against Lincoln-Sudbury (MA.) Chris Onofrio put Coginchaug up early with a two-run homer in the top of the first. Nico Kulpik and Carmine Andranovich had hits in the top of the third, and both scored to give Coginchaug its second lead at 4-3.

But Lincoln-Sudbury chipped away over the next four innings, and Coginchaug failed to find enough offense as it fell 7-4.

Hugh Barrett and C.J. Sokol pitched for Coginchaug in the loss.

Game 2 was against an undefeated Manchester West Side (NH) team that came in pretty confident, and awfully loud.

Manchester West Side took a 5-0 lead after three innings, with three early home runs, but D.J. Arnold

returned the favor in the bottom of the third with a solo homer, and one inning later Kulpik singled to plate Sokol to make it 5-2.

The New Hampshire boys would strike back with four runs in the top of the fifth.

Coginchaug made a late seventh inning rally on an Onofrio double that would score Kyle Kupec, Arnold and Barrett, but the comeback fell short, and Manchester West Side walked away with an 11-5 win.

O n o f r i o , Ku l p i k a n d Holden Starr pitched for Coginchaug.

Up n ex t , Co g i n c h u a g would face a winless Warwick Continental (RI) club, and showed up ready to pick up the first Connecticut win in the three-year history of the Intermediate level East Regional tournament.

Coginchaug scored seven runs before there were two outs in the top of the first, including RBI hits by Kulpik and Andranovich. Coginchaug added more in the top of the fifth on a solo homer

by Ben Mariani.

C.J. Sokol threw a complete game as the Connecticut team beat Rhode Island 12-4.

From there, Coginchaug faced the host team and eventual tournament champion, Commack North/District 34.

Commack North/District 34 rolled 20-0, allowing just one hit, by Andranovich, in the fifth inning of the mercy-shortened game.

Commack North/District 34 was the real deal. The team went on to represent the East Region at the Intermediate World Series in Livermore, California, and made it all the way to the U.S. title game, losing 4-3 to Wellington, Florida.

West Seoul, Korea defeated Florida in the World Series final.

This marked the second time in the last three years

that a Coginchaug team ended its season with a loss to a team that later made it to the U.S. championship; a tremendous accomplishment for a small league in

central Connecticut.

The Coginchaug boys had an amazing week in Long Island.

From go-kart racing, to an afternoon at Jones Beach,

along with hotel pool time, and a few great team dinners, it was an experience that they and their families will not soon forget. – Press Release

The annual Art Bra runway show and auction will return at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 20 at the Oakdale Theater in Wallingford.

Like the past events, Art Bra 2015 will showcase artistic and whimsical brassieres created special for the evening. Funds generated at Art Bra 2015 benefit the charity After the Storm, founded by Christine Willet of Middlefield. After the Storm supports programs for cancer patients at hospitals in central Connecticut.

This year one of the bras accepted for the show was created by Durham artists and is dedicated to several local people lost to cancer. Titled “Durham’s Angels,” the bra was created by Ronda Berens, Roberta Pascarelli, Corinne Tawa and Gina Turner.

Sunflower maze at Lymans features 350,000 plants Pulling a wooden cart with a spool of mesh fence on top of it through a small dirt path in between four-foot sunflower stems, Ansonny Ramos and Lorenzo Parke recently worked to lay four miles of fencing at Lyman Orchards.

Soon the sunflower maze would open and Ramos and Parke, two farm employees, were working on finishing touches.

Along with installing fencing on both sides of the path, employees worked to smooth out the two-mile pathway and remove rocks.

A lot of work was put into designing and creating the maze, said John Lyman, owner of Lyman Orchards.

“It’s very intricate,” he said.

Th e s u n f l owe r m a ze started in 2007.

“We saw good success from our corn maze and we wanted to extend the sea-

son doing another crop,” Lyman said. “Sunflowers are so unique, so we decided to give it a shot.”

While most of the sunflowers weren’t in bloom at the time of this interview, Tim Burt, Lyman Orchards director of marketing, said he expected them to “pop up” and grow another two feet before the grand opening Aug. 1.

Sunflowers are sterile, said Lyman, meaning they don’t have pollen and are less likely to attract bees.

The maze attracted nearly 11,000 last year.

Lyman Orchards donates $1 of every admission ticket to the pediatric cancer unit of the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center in Hartford.

Since the maze started, more than $44,800 has been raised for the hospital.

Each year, the children at the hospital choose the design for the maze. This year, more than 350,000 yellow and red sunflowers create the head of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Lyman uses a Utah-based

design and cutting company called The MAiZE. The sunflowers were planted in the beginning of July, said Lyman.

Along the way, people will encounter boards with trivia about dinosaurs.

Choosing the correct answer will send people in the right direction, while

the wrong answer might get them a little lost.

“It’s educational as well,” said Burt.

On average, it takes about 20 to 30 minutes to navigate the maze.

The Sunflower Maze is open daily through Sunday, Aug. 23, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

comes to numbers and requirements. Major fairs must have rides and a certain number of them. Major fairs also adhere to a minimum number of animals exhibited and/or entered into competitions — sheep, cows, chickens, rabbits, et cetera. They also comply with a certain number of overall contests, competitions, and exhibits.

The larger fairs are where people will find animal and tractor pulls, a midway with rides, commercial vendors, a home arts section with baked goods, vegetables, canned items, needlework and the like for exhibit and judging.

Local fair requirements mimic those of major fairs, however, the rules are not as strict or extensive.

It’s a lot of work in the small span of time that makes up fair season. Why does Dimmick do it? “We do this for the fun of it. We put on a good show for the people,” he said.

The 75-year-old Dimmick is a retired Central Connecticut State University geology professor, he’s also a certified geologist and has sat on his town’s Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission board for four decades. He also helped create that panel.

Some may connect with him from one of his speaking engagements — his presentations have been booked with numerous organizations, clubs and functions.

As an agricultural fair inspector, Dimmick is a member of the non-profit Association of CT fairs, and chair of the Classification Committee. The association provides oversight to its member CT Agricultural Fairs. It’s a group that’s been around 100 years, said Dimmick. His qualification for working with the group is simple, according to Dimmick, “I’m upright and breathing,” he said laughing.

He also explains that it is a volunteer position.

“I love fairs,” Dimmick said. “It’s in my blood,” he added, waxing about his youth and his initiation into agricultural fairs. Living in See Dimmick / Page 13

New Jersey for a time when he was a young boy, Dimmick remembers being the youngest member of the Rabbit and Cavey Association. At the tender age of nine, he was recruited as the night watchman for the Dutch rabbits during the Morris County Fair. He recalls spending his time chasing after escaped rabbits and putting them back into their cages.

After settling in Cheshire in the early 1970s, he eventually found himself joining the Cheshire Grange, due in large part, because they had a fair.

He, of course, eventually was put in charge of the rabbits. He has served as chaplain for that grange since 1995.

“I’ve had to shoot coyotes and deer that were hit by cars,� Leiler stated. “Once we had a bear get into a collision with a car but it ran off into the woods and was never seen again.�

She says that bear and moose sightings are uncommon in Cheshire but have been seen on Route 70 near Interstate 84.

Leiler also has seen her fair share of interesting animals that she has been called out to capture. She has encountered peacocks, emus, a horse, a pig and even a monitor lizard. “The lizard was in a drainage pipe and very unfriendly,� Leiler said. “It was not a good experience.�

The majority of rabid animals she comes into contact with are raccoons and skunks. She said it is not uncommon near the end of the fall season to encounters foxes sick with mange that have no fur. Often times these foxes are suffering from a painful illness and need to be mercifully put down.

The Durham Town Green Revitalization Project Committee is holding a fund drive to improve the appearance of the green. Many trees have been lost or are in poor shape and the turf needs improvement.

In an earlier press release, we had stated that fundraising inserts would be placed in all Durham tax bills. Unfortunately, our inserts were not compatible with the machine that stuffs the tax bills. Therefore, most taxpayers did not receive the fund drive information in their tax bill.

If you would like to make a donation to the revitalization of the Durham Town Green, send donations to the Durham Town Hall, Attn: Finance Dept, P.O. Box 428, Durham, CT 06422.

Checks should be made payable to The Carl Otte Natural Resource Fund. Questions can be directed to Tina Gossner, (860) 349-9997.
