More than 1,000 families who delivered sick babies sometime during the last six years also experienced a heartwarming gesture that made their world a little brighter during that otherwise difficult time. This is thanks to the women of the GFWC Newington/ Wethersfield Woman’s Club, who in 2006 embarked on a mission to stitch blankets for babies in the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Making progress in the years since their very first blanket delivery, they surpassed their milestone goal of 1,000 blankets by two just last month. “It’s an incredible feeling — Volume 53, No. 57

we are just so in awe of the wonderful things that happen in the unit; the people are so special and it’s an honor to be a part of,” said Edyie Steimer, the club member who started it all. Struggling with breathing difficulties, heart defects, prematurity and other birth complications, the babies there are often not expected to live more than a few days. Having a special blanket to swaddle them in or keep bedside can be a tremendous comfort to scared and overwhelmed parents, according to Milena Frazer, a registered nurse who has helped facilitate the program since its beginning. “The families are usually shocked and upset, stunned by having to come there, so Edyie’s blankets offer something that just reminds them that this is their baby ... it’s going to be okay,” Frazer said around this time last year, when the club

were before. Violations will result in a $50 penalty. “I think this is a good change; I have no problem moving forward with it,” Mayor Steve Woods said Tuesday. He said the action was similar to when the council addressed the town’s blight ordinance last year, as a way to target repeat offenders. “These are people who throw snow into town right-of-ways, causing a hazard to vehicular traffic … the habitual abuser,” he explained. The amendment also brings the town up to state statutes, permitting a lien on property owners to be imposed after 30 days instead of the current 60 for those who don’t clear snow from sidewalks in a timely manner. The proposal was reviewed by the town’s highway department staff, who gave their approval with only one wording change. As it was written, the amendment required people to acquire the consent of property owners before plowing or depositing snow in a road that adjoins their property. The change requires people to instead obtain the town’s permission before doing so. Per the town charter the new ordinance will go into effect 15 days after it’s published. Town

NEWINGTON TOWN CRIER
Town hires agency to manage National Welding site development By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER
At their meeting Tuesday, the Newington Town Council authorized the town to hire the Capitol Region Development Authority to manage the revamp of the blighted National Welding property, but is still deciding whether or not to enter into a contract with the state to use a $2 million grant for the project, estimated to cost over $4 million. Because the site is adjacent to CTfastrak’s Cedar Street Station that’s now being built, it poses an opportunity for “transit-oriented development” — a term locals have long feared the implications of. Tuesday’s resolution authorizing the town manager to enter into an agreement with the CRDA to administer the $2 million grant and handle the demolition, abatement and then redevelopment of the site passed 6-2. Republicans Maureen Klett and Dan Dinunzio disapproved, citing a lack of information about the selection process. “There’s nothing to compare to; they were brought to the table like they were the only game in town,” Klett said of the agency, which managed the construction
of the CT Convention Center and other large-scale projects in the Hartford area. Economic Development Director Andy Brecher discussed with the council the town’s other options, which would have been to hire more town staff to execute the project or another agency. But, he said, both alternatives would be more expensive and the CRDA has the most experience in handling every facet of the project. “I think they’re the best people we can really find to do the job,” Brecher said, later adding, “How many other firms are involved in projects worth hundreds of millions of dollars? The only one in the state right now is the CRDA.” A portion of the grant money would be used to cover $75,000 in fees the agency will charge for services, and the remaining $50,000 charged over a 12-month period was already set aside in the town’s Capital Improvements Fund for disposition of the site. Councilor Terry Borjeson, who chairs the CTfastrak Corridor Advisory Committee, assured fellow councilors the agency “is out there to help us, not tell us what to do.” “What a bargain, to get the
expertise of this group,” he added. “It’s in the best interest of townspeople that we move forward with this.” At their next meeting in two weeks, the council will discuss the next part of the process — accepting the long-awaited financial assistance proposal from the state Department of Economic and Community Development. “After many months we were finally able to get DECD to produce a document; we want to take this money,” Brecher said Tuesday.

Baby blanket milestone reached by GFWC Woman’s Club Continued from Page 1
reached 826 blankets. Through day-long workshops in the time since, members were able to hit the 1,002 mark. Over the years eight or nine others have accompanied Steimer to the hospital to meet the families and give them a blanket. They buy all their own fabric and make them in pink or blue, washing each in Ivory soap before they reach little hands. “Most of the time prospective parents have no idea they’re going to deliver early and their baby will be in intensive care,” Steimer said. “This is a total shock to them, not the way they planned and it’s scary, so this is a welcome comfort.” A small tag on the package denotes the club’s name and Steimer’s home address, so she has received many thank-you letters.
Of the countless touching moments she’s had with families over the years, one in particular came to mind recently. “There was a dad with twin boys — two little peanuts,” she remembered. “He had tears in his eyes and said, ‘It is so heartwarming to know there are people who really care about these babies.’” Now that club members have reached their goal, it just means the future will hold more blankets and more memories like that. “It will continue as long as I am able to do it, because it’s always a new experience every time I go,” Steimer said. “It was just meant to be.” Erica Schmitt can be reached at (860) 225-4601, ext. 210, or eschmitt@newbritainherald.com.

the kids were taught to yell “Bravi!” if they enjoyed what they heard. Screams immediately echoed through the school’s gym where it was held, as the students practiced their new call for praise. “They were really fantastic,” second-gr ade teacher Antwanette Hatten commented afterwards, ushering out grades back to their classrooms. As the school’s Cultural Arts Coordinator, Hatten leads a committee of five teachers and several parent volunteers in choosing various performance acts for the school community to enjoy, but also to learn from. “It’s a challenge, because we want to expose the kids to different things they wouldn’t normally be exposed to,” she explained. “How many kids have ever heard opera
before this?” Throughout the 2013-14 school year they will experience five performances through the program. Last year they had the opportunity to watch dancers from China take the stage, and this year they will see professional storytellers and puppeteers. “It’s always something new each time,” Hatten said. “We also want to do a program that ties into values like working together, being a team player and showing respect.” Funding for cultural arts programming in Newington schools was included in the Board of Education’s 2013-14 budget.

PET OF THE WEEK: CHARLIE Hi there, I’m Charlie. I’m a bit of a shy boy, so I take a little time to warm up to you. When I do relax I’ll be putty in your hands. I had a rough start in life; I’m 4 years old and I lived in a home where my humans didn’t have enough time for me. But I’m doing great here at the Connecticut Humane Society, now that I can get some individual people time. All I wanted was a little love and attention. I would do best in a quiet home with older children (12-plus) and adults. I haven’t met younger children yet, but if you like me and have young kids who are respectful and cat-savvy, I’d love to give them a try. I haven’t met dogs yet, but a dog-test can easily be done here at the Connecticut Humane Society. I am at the Newington shelter. Remember, the Connecticut Humane Society has no time limits for adoption. Inquiries for adoption should be made at the Connecticut Humane Society, located at 701 Russell Road in Newington, or by

Mardi Gras-like Fasching ball at Hartford Liederkranz Feb. 22 joined in the ’50s and later also presided over the club. Hartford was home to the clubhouse back then, before members left in the ’70s and built a new facility on North Mountain Road in Newington, where it still stands today. “That was a time when we had almost 500 members,” Hecht remembers. “Those were the good old days, when it was really fun.” Nowadays club membership is no higher than 150, so events like “Fasching” are open to all. Current club President Mike McKeon will be tending the bar next Saturday. And probably not in costume, he says. “You don’t have to wear a costume, but I think most people probably will,” he says. “Hopefully, we’ll get at least 60 to 70 people.” The Austrian Boys are performing — a nod to the club’s founding fathers, who were actually of Austrian descent. “We still have a combination to some degree; early members were Bavarian Germans,” said McKeon, who is mostly Irish, himself.

You don’t have to be in New Orleans to celebrate Mardi Gras. Inside Newington’s Hartford Liederkranz German club they may call it by a different name, but it’s still the same festive occasion of dressing up, dancing, eating and drinking. The tradition of “Fasching” has been celebrated in Germany since the 19th century, and it’s loosely translated to “the celebration on the Eve of the fast.” Carnivals and parades light up city streets for days — even weeks — until Ash Wednesday, when the Catholic practice of Lenten fasting or abstinence begins. “Some towns do it a little more elaborately than others,” says Anna Hecht, treasurer of the Hartford Liederkranz and a second-generation German-American. It’s elaborate at the Liederkranz, which is hosting its annual masquerade ball next Saturday, Feb. 22. Anyone is welcome to make a reservation that evening — presenting the general public a rare

The public is invited to join members on the dance floor at the Hartford Liederkranz on Feb. 22 for “Fasching” — the German tradition of celebrating before Lent, similar to Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
opportunity to check out the club. Typically, outsiders have to be invited by members to monthly dances or Friday night socializing, which happens twice-monthly. But because they are getting older and many are far-removed from their German heritage, members are looking for some new blood
to revive the club and carry on its traditions. “We’re not as active as we used to be; we would love to have some new members,” said Hecht, whose father immigrated to America from Germany in the 1920s and once served as club president. Fritz Hecht, her late husband,

A few lots down the road is the Hartford Saengerbund, another German club. Their founders hailed from Northern Germany, according to McKeon. These days, some people choose to be involved with both clubs. “We try to coordinate our events so they don’t conflict with theirs; we don’t want to step on each other’s toes,” he said of the Saengerbund. “We kind of depend on each other. A lot of their members come here for dances.” The annual Fasching masquerade ball will be held Saturday, Feb. 22. Traditional German fare will be served for dinner from 6 to 7 p.m., and dancing will follow from 7 to 11 p.m. The dinner and the dance are priced separately at $12 each, per person. To make a reservation, call or email First Vice President Eileen Blair at (860) 989-2430 or egbean@comcast. net. The Hartford Liederkranz is located at 800 North Mountain Road in Newington.

Afternoon a fine time for hockey as Indians romp, 5-0 By CHRIS MCLAUGHLIN STAFF WRITER
NEWINGTON — While head coach Dave Harackiewicz wasn’t sure how his team would respond to playing in its first afternoon game of the season, last Saturday’s 5-0 rout over Farmington-Avon-Windsor showed why the Indians are one of the top teams in the conference. The Newington-BerlinManchester Indians dominated Farmington, controlling the game from the opening puck drop, and by the midpoint of the second period, the game was well in hand. “We came ready to play today,” Harackiewicz said. “We played three strong periods, we won a lot of battles down low, and we had
a lot of energy. This was our first afternoon game, so we didn’t know what we would get, but we had a lot of energy and speed and we used it well today.” Though the Indians offense erupted in the second period, it took awhile for them to get on the board. Shot after shot was snagged or deflected by Farmington goalie Nick Walmer, but eventually the Indians found the back of the net. Dan Roberts got NewingtonBerlin-Manchester on the board with 1:40 left in the opening period, and shortly after a penalty gave the Indians a power play. After not capitalizing on the man advantage for the remainder of the first period, it seemed the Indians would have to
wait until the Generals were back at full strength to get something done. With one second left on the power play, however, Roberts sneaked one past Walmer for his second goal of the game. Once the first two went in, the floodgates opened for the Indians. Shortly after the second goal, Luca DiPaola rocketed one past Walmer, and the sophomore forward wasn’t done there. Barely over a minute later, DiPaola struck again to give the Indians a commanding four-goal lead, and prompted the Generals to change goalies.
