After 31 years, Newington Hardware to close its doors

By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER

It’s not the greatest timing, as the State Department of Transportation’s milling and paving project is blocking New Britain Avenue, but people are still weaving their way in to Newington Hardware & Power Equipment to say goodbye to Al Brown.

The fate of his hometown hardware store will likely be sealed by the end of October, as chain saws and screwdrivers fly off the shelves in a total liquidation sale.

In the 31 years they’ve been serving the community, Brown and his wife Linda have turned customers, who come from New Britain, Newington,

Who says you can’t still spark change in this country from a political and educational standpoint at 93 years old?

Former Newington High School science teacher “Woody” Warren is doing just that.

A distinguished veteran of four wars who was once in command of 20,000 soldiers, Warren has a lot of knowledge to share. And he makes sure that his words reach those who are highest in power, so they may have a fighting chance at igniting a pledge of change he calls the “Help Save our Values” crusade.

In a letter he wrote to President Barack Obama this August, Warren asked the President along with state, town and federal officials — to reevaluate their commitment to democracy. Specifically their pledge to uphold the principles of freedom, See FORMER, Page 6

CRCOG Executive Director Lyle Wray hopes that Newington will indeed receive a piece of the pie – in terms of the federal funding that may or may not be issued for remediation.

“We’re going to try and help them on that,” he said Wednesday. “We want to work with all the towns in the rapid transit corridor as well as the rail line on a regional basis, with common issues such as Brownfield sites and the relationships among stations.”

Wray also eluded to some exciting things happening early next year, including the release of an individual report for each of the bus stations, outlining its market potential. There are currently consultants at each site performing evaluations.

“Transit-oriented development studies are being done right now under federal grant money to determine the potential for development at each station,” he explained.

Updates on new advancements will be reported in coming weeks.

As CTfastrak — one of the most controversial projects undertaken in the state in recent memory — moves forward, much of the public attention has focused on the negative; but recent updates shed a more optimistic light on the New Britain-Hartford busway with two planned stations in Newington.

This week’s commentary from Newington and state officials working on plans at Newington Junction and the corner of Fenn Road and Cedar Street indicates a collaborative effort on all sides.

11 Xavier students are named merit scholar winners

Area Chambers of Commerce look to enter collaboration on promotions, fundraisers, more

By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER

The people who have Newington,Wethersfield and Rocky Hill business owners’ best interests in mind are beginning a collaborative effort to enhance the opportunities they are provided.

For the very first time this week, all of the executive directors and presidents of each of these towns’ Chambers of Commerce met in person.

A few of them have met before, but not all, and they were pleasantly surprised to draw many parallels in their daily duties. This is just the first step in a partnership that will bring many tritown business events to fruition.

“I think it’s a very positive thing,”Wethersfield Chamber Executive Director Ellyn Laramie said Wednesday. “We just have so much in common geographically and businesses that overlap, we wanted to figure out what we can do as a team to promote business in our area,” she added.

The purpose of the recent meeting was to brainstorm ideas for tri-town programs and activities for the coming year. Although nothing is set in stone just yet, the chambers have some exciting opportunities up their sleeves.

They already hold ‘Business After Hours’ events at companies in their respective towns,

with the intention of connecting fellow business owners for networking opportunities. However, the goal is to increase the variety and amount of tri-town events.

In a show of unity and cooperation, the group is meeting again next Wednesday, Oct. 3 — where else, but the Glastonbury-Rocky Hill Ferry.

“We really want to show all of our memberships how we are working together,” explained

Golden Kielbasa golf tournament raises funds for local vets

By LIZ NEWBERG STAFF WRITER

purchase of American flags in the veterans section of New Britain’s Fairview Cemetery,” Buden said.

The reason for the tournament’s success is simply because, as a city, New Britain cares deeply about its brothers in arms, the organizer said.

“New Britain is a tremendous supporter of veterans’ causes as a city,” he said.

Alan Ladd, of Berlin, served as a medic in the U.S. Marines and the Navy. He said being in the service was the best time of his life and that it can be a great experience for high school graduates who don’t know what they’re doing after high school.

“They can learn a trade or a profession and take some time to decide what they want to do,” Ladd said.

“If they want to go to college, they can do that on the G.I. Bill, like we all did,” he said, referring to his group of four golf partners at the tournament.

Connie Swanson, a Berlin resident and former U.S. Marine who fought in Korea, agreed that joining the service was one of the best times of his life but said he thought our soldiers should all come home.

“We shouldn’t be anywhere fighting,” Swanson said. “Have to take care of our own. We have our own problems we should be taking care of right here.”

But the fact is that American men and women are overseas fighting for us and when they come back it can be harder to fit back into the community they left behind.

“Every veteran is a little different,” Jimenez said. “It’s sometimes harder to get back into a community because you’ve been away so long and things have changed.

Adjusting is a big part of when you get out, especially since a high percentage of us went right out of high school and we quickly have to mature in the military and then to have to adjust in a regular living situation again is tough.”

The green hills and bucolic vistas of Timberlin Golf Club played host to Friday’s fourth annual Golden Kielbasa Veterans Open charity golf tournament.

Playing on the last day of summer, golfers, many of whom were veterans and former service men, teed off under perfect temperatures and sunny skies — a stark contrast to the conditions many have experienced as veterans of foreign wars, including Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.

This year, the event honored New Britain’s own Manny Jimenez, a Marine who lost his left arm and suffered other serious injuries when a IED exploded during a routine foot patrol in Afghanistan in 2010.

For Jimenez, events like the Golden Kielbasa mean the sacrifices he and other veterans have made are not forgotten.

“I’m honored,” Jimenez said.

“It means that there are tons of people in the community who care about veterans and what happens to them when they return home and are doing a lot to show their support.”

For 65-year-old Vietnam veteran Dean Buden, of Newington, the event has become like a kind of reunion, but with the added importance of helping fellow veterans.

“This is a way for us to help out a lot of vets who can’t help themselves,” Buden said.

Whether it’s trying to get benefits or not qualifying for a job because of a disability, veterans deserve the country’s support, he said.

The event is garnering more and more support. According to organizer Dennis Buden, two years ago they raised $200 for veterans’ causes. This year they added two major corporate sponsors, Farmington Bank and AT&T, to the mix, and had 120 golfers sign up.

“We expect to raise $10,000 for the Hardware City Chapter of Liz Newberg can be reached at (860) the Disabled American Veterans, 225-4601, ext. 243, or at lnewberg@ Purple Heart Homes and for the newbritainherald.com.

They may not be basketball superstars or on Newington High School’s Honor Roll every quarter.

But maybe they make grandma lunch every Sunday, mow the elderly neighbor’s lawn, or volunteer at the Lucy Robbins Welles Library.

The bottom line is — they’re good kids.

Far too often, young people are the subject of some police story about a silly act of teenage rebellion. “Those damn kids,� they say.

But besides the straight-A students or prodigy-athletes, they’re rarely featured in a positive light by the media. In conjunction with the Newington Youth Adult Council and Newington Human Services, we’re hoping to change that.

The Newington Town Crier is putting out an invitation for Newington residents to nominate “Good Kids� in the community.

Winners will be featured in a monthly Town Crier column. The only stipulation: they attend one of the town’s elementary schools, middle schools, Newington High School, or the Transition Academy.

And they must be a do-gooder.

You know, the type who climbed an old oak tree to rescue a young child’s cat, taught a baby sister how to ride a bike, or donated their lemonade stand money to the homeless shelter. “We spend a lot of time working on the negative but we should also spend time on the positive,� Tim Manke, Chairman of the Youth Adult Council said of the proposition, which he and others on the Council cooked up. “There are always police reports with bad things, but we find that there are a lot of kids doing outstanding things in the community that nobody knows about. We’d like to have some vehicle for them to be recognized,� Manke added.

The McDonald’s on the Berlin Turnpike in Newington held a fundraiser to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Connecticut and Western Massachusetts. The two-week long “Fill Ronald McDonald’s Shoes” fundraiser involved the sale of paper cutouts of Ronald McDonald shoes which customers wrote their names on and posted inside the restaurant. The shoes were sold for $1 and all proceeds benefitted the local RMHC chapter. The restaurant raised nearly $1,500. A grand total of over $106,000 was raised by all participating stores in Connecticut and Western Massachusetts.

One-hundred-and-fifty years ago nearly 700 Connecticut men, including men from New Britain, Bristol and Burlington, were killed or wounded during the Battle of Antietam — a crucial turning point in the U.S. Civil War. The public is invited as Connecticut Commemorates the Battle of Antietam during a twoday event held Sept. 29 and Sept. 30 at Wickham Park in Manchester.

Killed in the battle were Capt.

Newton Manross, from Bristol; Capt. Jarvis Blinn, from New Britain; and Pvt. Gideon Barnes, from Burlington.

This, the second in a series of major events, is sponsored by the Connecticut Civil War Commemoration Commission, The Travelers Companies, Inc., and the Connecticut Humanities Council. Attendance is free, though the park charges $5 for parking.

Capt. Jarvis Blinn of New Britain was one of 38 members of the 14th Connecticut killed or mortally wounded at Antietam.

ian re-enactors will highlight the event, along with dozens of educational and commemorative activities developed for families, educators and historians. In addition to cavalry and artillery drills, firing demonstrations, infantry load and fire competitions, and cannon firing, visitors are invited to stroll throughout the hundreds of tents where the re-enactors will cook by campfire and sutlers (merchants) will sell their wares as they did 150 years ago.

Central Connecticut State University is the primary partner of the Commission, which consists of members of more than 90 state and local government agencies, museums, media and historical and cultural groups. CCSU History Professor Matthew Warshauer is co-chairman of the Commission and a lead organizer of the Battle of Antietam event.

“In addition to the re-enactors, this year we’ve invited the Connecticut National Guard,” Warshauer announced, and added “We’re pleased that 50 guard members will be taking part in the encampment to help make the connection between those who volunteer to serve their country today and those who volunteered 150 years ago to protect their way of life.”

Food vendors and displays from the Connecticut Historical Society, New England Civil War Museum and others will be set up outside the encampment in other areas of the park.

Newington falls in epic match against New Britain NEW BRITAIN 3, NEWINGTON 2

By CARL JOSEPHSON STAFF WRITER

NEWINGTON — It was a wild one between the New Britain and Newington girls volleyball teams Monday, as the Hurricanes were down early but found a way to pull out a five-set victory.

New Britain won the match 3-2 (25-23, 24-26, 25-27, 25-12, 15-13), a thriller that went about as far as it could possibly go.

“It’s huge,” New Britain head coach Michelle Abraham said about the big win. “We are looking to get our eighth win this year because last year we missed the state tournament by a game. To beat Newington in Newington is huge.”

Newington came out of the gates fast, taking a 15-8 lead in the first set, but the Hurricanes stuck with it and ended up pulling out the first set 25-23.

The second set went to the

(25-23, 24-26, 25-27, 25-12, 15-13) At Newington HIGHLIGHTS—New Britain: Faith Ford 12 kills, Annette Mesa 15 digs, Alexis Sulewski 9 blocks, Mariah Rosado 15 digs, Ginelle Martinez 11 digs. Newington: Alicia Greenalch 23 digs, Erika Mortensen 31 assists, 10 digs, Alex Marques 10 kills, 2 blocks, Gabrielle Gratchev 12 digs, Sarah Horvath 10 kills, 2 blocks.

Records: New Britain: 3-2, Newington 0-5

Indians, although New Britain tried to make another comeback in that set. Newington was up 23-18, but the Hurricanes were able to tie it up 23-23, but Newington did not let that set get away from them.

The third set may have been the craziest of the match, as both teams went back and forth trading leads.

Newington, again, took a wild set 27-25, but the Hurricanes did not roll over. In fact, they played even harder.

“I think in the second and third game we started playing scared instead of smart,” Abraham said. “I

team could not pull out their first win of he season, but he took a lot of positives away from the game.

“One of the biggest things that we had been working on since preseason was our serve-receive,” Douglas said.

“Today we had a few receiving errors, but for the most part it was on.”

The Indians had some big hitters in the match, which really impressed Douglas. Alex Marques, Stasha Greenalch and Sarah Horvath all had 10 kills in the match.

A crazy match between New Britain (3-2) and Newington (0-5) had to end with a winner, and unfortunately for the Indians they could not pick up that first win.

told them to have confidence in their we got on top they didn’t let their teammates and their own ability, and guard down.” the fourth game showed it. When New Britain owned the fourth set with its back up against the wall, winning it 25-12 to force a fifth and deciding set.

Both teams traded leads in the fifth, but New Britain completed its comeback, winning the set 15-13.

“We were trying to play every point like it was game point, but we kept falling short in those two sets that we lost,” senior Faith Ford said.

“We had a lot of lapses, but when we walk to remember the child we love and have lost started playing to our full potential I was very impressed.”

Ford finished the match 12 kills, while Mariah Rosado and Annette Mesa each added 15 digs to their team’s credit.
