Due to renovations currently taking place at EHHS, the company’s performances were moved to Coginchaug. “Coginchaug was really our first choice because we’ve run smaller camps there based on the YPCCA model so they know us and they’ve been great in the past,” said Rachel Mansfield, the show’s director. “We, as a staff, are excited to be able to use the beautiful facility and the beautiful

On the evening of Monday, July 27 at the Durham Public Library, the Democratic and Republican parties in Durham met separately for their nominating meetings to select their candidates for the upcoming municipal elections. The Republicans selected incumbent First Selectman Laura Francis to run for a third four-year term. Francis is currently running unopposed for that office as the Democrats did not select a nominee for First Selectman. The Democrats selected incumbent Selectman Steve Levy to run for a second term as Selectman. According to the election rules, Selectman and First Selectman are different offices and candidates can only win offices that they run for. So even if Levy were to win more votes than Francis, he would win the seat of Selectman and she would remain in the office of First Selectman. Without a surprise candidate or

Town eager to tackle Lake Beseck’s out-of-control weeds By Mark Dionne Town Times

Seen from Route 147, Lake Beseck may look like it has returned to normal following the lowering of the lake’s water level in October of 2013 to facilitate a dam repair, but two new weeds are choking acres of water and waterfront

since the draw down. Middlefield officials and Mark June-Wells, the limnologist studying the lake, blame the draw down for creating an environment where the new weeds could thrive. Middlefield First Selectman Jon Brayshaw said at the regular Board of Selectmen meeting on July 21 that he has con-

tacted six officials from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection about weed eradication and that two state officials will tour the lake shore. By e-mail, Amy Poturnicki, chair of the Lake Beseck Ad Hoc Committee, wrote, “While everyone waits for CT DEEP to collaborate be-

tween their various departments, I’m receiving a spike in emails from waterfront residents who are becoming more anxious as the plants grow and obstruct navigation to and from boat docks, in addition to their waterfront views of the lake.” Brayshaw has also been in contact with a Massachusetts

company, Aquatic Control Technology, which performs aquatic weed control. “They have a process to chemically kill the cattails and they have a process where they can harvest,” Brayshaw said, describing two options that can be used individually or in See Weeds / Page 4

team bounced back quickly, however. Coginchaug crushed East Hartford 11-1 behind a brilliant game by starter Hugh Barrett, then overwhelmed Coventry 9-2 and 16-1 behind more fine pitching from Chris Onofrio and Nick DeMartino to win the Section II title and advance to the state final. Coginchaug trailed in all four sectional games, and the best-of-three state final series against Fairfield American would be no different. Barrett was the Game 1 starter, and after allowing a two-run homer in the bottom of the first, was dominant the rest of the way, allowing just one additional run in 5 2/3 innings of work, and ending one batter short of a seven-inning complete game to record the win. Nico Kulpik and Ben Mariani each homered in the win. DeMartino pitched in Game 2, and like Barrett, it took an inning to find his best stuff. He allowed a pair of runs in the top of the first,

but was flawless the rest of the way, going the distance in the five-inning mercy shortened game. D.J. Arnold hit a pair of home runs, and Richard Godbout also homered for Coginchaug. Barrett threw three runners out stealing. With the state title in hand, Coginchaug headed to the Little League East Region tournament in Commack, Long Island, where it was joined by teams from eight other New England and Mid-Atlantic states. This is the first time a Coginchaug team advanced to a East Regional since the 1995 senior softball team did so. The last baseball team from a District 9 (Middlesex and Eastern New Haven counties) town to participate in an event above the state level was the 1949 Middletown team that went to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. — Press Release

Coginchaug’s 50-70 team with the state championship banner.

It took 55 years, but Durham and Middlefield finally have a baseball state title in Little League. Sunday, July 20, the Coginchaug Intermediate (50-70) all-star team defeated Fairfield American 12-2 at Peckham Park to win the 2015 Connecticut 50-70 level championship. Coginchaug baseball teams had played in four Little League state championships over the prior three seasons, but were 0-8 in those games. This year would end differently, though. To get to the state final, Coginchaug would have to first win the Section II tournament, also held at Peckham. Despite high expectations, things did not start well for the team. The locals opened the sectional tournament with a 13-9 loss to Coventry, in a game they led 6-5 entering the bottom of the sixth. Starter C.J. Sokol pitched well enough to keep Coginchaug in the game, but a late eight-run rally by Coventry in the bottom of the sixth left the team with doubts if this was going to be another postseason 50-70 tournament that would not go Coginchaug’s way.

combination. The weeds are Phragmites australis and Typha latifolia. Both are perennials. The first is a tall reedy grass. The second is more commonly called a cattail. Lake Beseck is owned by the state. The CT DEEP ordered the draw down in order to repair the dam, so Middlefield officials are hoping the CT DEEP will pay for removing the subsequent weeds. Poturnicki said that the lengthy draw down created “the perfect environment for these stubborn terrestrials to establish and take hold.” Selectmen Ed Bailey, who also serves on the Lake Beseck Ad Hoc Committee, said, “Should DEEP not be prepared to do anything we

Although there are two different species of plants, they are growing as “a single community” and can be considered and treated together. According to the report, 11 to 17 acres of recreational area are covered by the weeds, with three significant patches and 20 smaller patches. The largest area of growth is curved along the lake’s southern border. Noting the impact the plants have already had, Poturnicki wrote, “The longer

Opinion With a little help from my friends Old friends. They’re the best, aren’t they? I’ve got three lifelong friends – people who have walked with me every step of the way since my arrival on this planet, or soon thereafter. I met the first one when I was a mere two weeks old. I say met, but I doubt if, at that tender age, I extended any amenities to her or gave any indication that I was pleased to make her acquaintance. I imagine I was too busy drooling and doing other baby things. Our mothers, along with another woman and her baby, used to wheel us in our baby carriages every day to the Guilford green. And all my life I heard from my mother how, as toddlers, the other two would sit quietly so that their mothers could visit, but I kept her busy chasing after me, as I ran ‘round and ‘round the monument that sits in the middle of the green. I don’t think she ever got over it. As this friend and I grew up, we spent many a rainy day playing board games, and many a sunny day walking into town to buy ice cream. We always went to the Guilford fair together, and we would watch the parade as it marched by her house. When we were teenagers we would swap clothes, and amazingly, the other’s apparel al-

ways seemed to be a perfect fit. I don’t think she’d be interested in the clown pants I wear nowadays, though. My next longtime friend and I met when we were both eight years old. His father and my stepfather worked together, and our two families quickly bonded. He lives in Illinois now, but we talk on the phone on a regular basis, and lately he’s been coming out this way for an annual visit. We often reminisce about our shared childhoods. Ice skating. Sledding. Chasing fireflies at night. Listening to the Beach Boys and the Beatles. Picnics. Badminton. Watching the fireworks every Fourth of July. Having pillow fights in his den, along with his younger brother. (My folks would come in to yell at me and admonish me to act like a lady. I don’t think I ever quite got the hang of that.) Our families would get together on New Year’s Eve, and when the grown-ups would kiss at the stroke of midnight, we, at the mercy of our

adolescent hormones, did not know what to do. Kiss? Not kiss? We probably just ended up punching each other in the arm. When we came home on our college vacations, the first thing we would do is call the other one, and maybe go out for a pizza or a movie, or drive down to the beach. He calls me his sister, and I call him my brother, and we used to say that whomever we married someday would have to be okay with our friendship. (They weren’t.) We still talk about anything and everything with each other. I met the third member of my merry little band when I was 10 years old. She’s the one who, along with me, had to sit out the class’ rendition of “Sweet Betsy From Pike” because the teacher thought we couldn’t carry a tune in a paper bag. I have fond memories of summer days and nights spent driving around in her convertible with the top down. We’d even have it down in the winter sometimes, with the heat blasted all the way up. Ah, youth! She likes to remind me of the time she went through a stop sign and was immediately pulled over by a police officer. She cried, he let her off, and I

A history lesson

To the editor: I may be naive. I never saw the Confederate Battle Flag as racist. Then again, I am not the P.C. type. Back in the day, slavery was common throughout the world, not just in the United States; slaves were both in the American North and the South. Slavery in the U.S. was a legal institution of “Chattel slavery,” which existed in the 18th and 19th centuries, and remained so from the time we gained our independence and before the end of the American Civil War. The main dispute between the slave states and the U.S. Federal Government was States’ Rights. This struggle focused heavily on the institution of slavery and whether the federal government had the right to regulate or even abolish slavery within an individual state. It must be remembered that in the slave states, slaves were considered property. The See Carr / Page 9 war had nothing to do with race other than that the vast majority U.S. slaves were black; it was about the Federal Government denying the right to property. he turned to Eddie Garcia and deadNow, to the point.

‘Paris’ a charming romp in the City of Light Director Ian Edelman calls it a “farcical satire,” producer Joseph Zolpo a “fish out of water caper,” but no matter how you look at it, Puerto Ricans in Paris is a charming laugh out loud romp into the City of Light with the Puerto Rican dream team: Luis Guzman, Edgar Garcia, Diagnosis: Rosie Perez and Rosario Dawson. Movies Puerto Ricans Tanya Feke, M.D. in Paris follows an unbelievable premise but that is what makes it all the more fun. A fashion designer hires two New York cops to come to Paris to track down a stolen handbag before counterfeits can be put on the black market. The fashion designers claim the French police are taking too long to get the job done. In truth, the movie is not about bags at all. It is really a story about friendship and uprooting yourself from the world you know. Guzman plays Luis, an out of shape New York cop who exudes charisma and a presumed ability to charm the

Diving off the jettys at the beach. Afternoons spent on her sailfish, and one time it capsized and we couldn’t get it back up and we were out there for hours (I had horrible visions of eating seaweed for supper and sharks circling us at night); someone finally towed us back to shore. Baking brownies and crooning along with the popular songs of the day (with nobody to make us sit them out!) when we were teenagers and our folks were out bowling together and at last, we could be left home alone. Exploring all the nooks and crannies of our junior high school, once we were released from its clutches at the end of the school day.

I haven’t known her all my life, but for 24 years, and that’s long enough. We are sisters of the heart. She is always there for me, always, and I know that if I was ill in the middle of the night, she would think nothing of hopping in her car and making the 45-minute drive to sit with me and put a cold washcloth on my feverish brow and make me a cup of herbal tea. I feel blessed to know people who have been there for all the seasons of my life, who have stayed the course, who hold some of my most precious memories.

primary in September where the nominee for Selectman will be chosen, and I ask for (the voters’) support.” To announce his candidacy, Raney was introduced by Francis on the steps of the Town Hall when she announced her re-election bid and their qualifications were both listed in announcements. After the party caucus, Francis wrote, “I am grateful for John Szewczyk’s service over the past eight years but look forward to working with Rob Raney. Rob will bring a wealth of business experience to the BOS. Rob is a devoted husband to Doreen, father of four, grandfather to nine and a friend to many. These are the relationships that drive his desire to serve and help his town stay strong.” According to Durham Town Clerk Kim Garvis, there are two upcoming dates for candidates not nominated at the party meetings to get on the ballot and Szewczyk has already taken advantage of one of them. By Aug. 5, candidates can apply to be a petitioning candidate for any position and appear on the ballot outside of party affiliation. According to Garvis, the Secretary of State’s office notified Durham that Szewczyk has applied to be a petitioning candidate for Selectman. Candidates have until Aug. 12 to petition for a party primary. Petitioning and primary candidates are also the two ways an opponent could emerge against Francis. Each party put forth a lengthy slate of candidates with the Republicans using a caucus system while the Democrats worked through their town committee. Garvis, the Town Clerk, is seeking another four-year term on the Republican ticket and, like Francis, is currently running unopposed. Republican Wendy Manemeit is seeking re-election as Town Treasurer and also running unopposed. Democrat Martin French is seeking a fourth term as Tax Collector, a position Republican Bonnie Ryder also hopes to earn. A complete list of candidates for both parties can be found on Durham’s website.

Fund drive for Town Green 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.
