Even as the cloudy sky grew darker and thunder boomed overhead, crowds of spectators stayed put on lawn chairs and picnic blankets they brought until Superintendent Michael Emmett officially called off the festivities.

Although Valedictorian Kristina Tougas and Salutatorian Bryant Malloy didn’t have a chance to address their classmates, Board of Education Chairman John Cascio still wished the graduates well.

WHS valedictorian looks to use talents to aid environment

By CAROLINE KRAWCZYNSKI CORRESPONDENT

At the age of 17, Kristina Tougas finished up her senior year at Wethersfield High School as Valedictorian of the Class of 2013.

While graduating at the top of her class already makes her special, Kristina is unique for other reasons, too. She has talent and passion for both math and art — two areas require not only different skills, but use separate parts of the brain.

Kristina has found a way to blend these two academic focuses

into a future pursuit. This fall she “My best memory was being will attend Columbia University on the swim team and I will to study environmental archi- probably miss that the most,” tecture. Through her work she she says. wants to help improve and protect the environment.

“My family motivates me to do good,” says Kristina.

“My brother is into preserving the environment and I would like to follow KRISTINA TOUGA that path, too.” In addition Wethersfield High School valedictorian to being a scholar, Kristina is also an athlete. She was on the Wethersfield High School “I had a really good experience swim team for four years and here.” graduated as captain.

Kristina loved to spend time in

a pool so much that she decided to get certified to be a lifeguard.

That is how she spent the last four summers—lifeguarding at a local pool. This year, she even taught swimming lessons.

Despite being busy with school work and recreational activities, Kristina also contributes immensely to the community.

She was part of the Wethersfield Rotary’s Interact Club at the high school, an opportunity for teens to help

Families in Wethersfield who struggle financially are usually able to have good meals around the holidays thanks to the generosity of their neighbors, but this time of year it becomes a bit more difficult.

Gov. Malloy flies gay pride flag over home following DOMA ruling

HARTFORD — A rainbow flag, symbolizing gay pride, is being flown over the governor’s official residence in Hartford.

The flag was raised Wednesday after the U.S. Supreme Court voted to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act. Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy has been a strong proponent of samesex marriage and gay rights. He hosted a gay wedding last weekend at the residence for one of his top advisers.

In a written statement, Malloy said he implores “every state to give full faith and credit to valid same-sex marriages” and that every Connecticut resident “deserves to have their marriage recognized as they travel among the states.”

While Connecticut has recognized same-sex marriage since 2008, Malloy said the federal DOMA prevented the legally married couples from being recognized by the U.S. government.

Retired Commissioner Michael Starkowski given honorary UConn alumnus award STAFF REPORT

Michael Starkowski, retired Commissioner of the Department of Social Services, has been awarded the 2013 UConn Alumni Association Honorary Alumni Award.

This award is presented to non-alumni whose past, present and potential impact on the University community qualifies them for alumni status.

While Mike Starkowski is a Central Connecticut State University graduate, he loves UConn basketball so much that he named the state’s signature health care initiative for the school’s mascot. The 35-year veteran of public service developed and implemented HUSKY (Healthcare for Uninsured Kids &Youth), which now includes free or low-cost services for Medicaid and other eligible adults, in 1998.

During his tenure at the Department of Social Services, Mike oversaw more than 90 health and human service programs that provided services to more than 750,000 people. He involved UConn School of Pharmacy students in plan selections for seniors participating in Medicare Part D and developed a nationally recognized Medication Therapy Management Demonstration program for high-risk Medicaid recipients. He recently was appointed a member of the UConn School of Pharmacy Advisory Board.

UConn basketball is a family affair for Mike and his wife of 30 years, Karen, and their two daughters and five grandchildren, all avid fans. He even found ways to integrate his love of the teams with his work, arranging promotional sites at men’s and women’s games so fami-

lies could learn about HUSKY and sign up. Fittingly, he officially retired April 4, 2011, the night of the men’s basketball team’s latest national championship. Of this member of the UConn Foundation Founders Society, Alumni Trustee Richard T. Carbray Jr. wrote, “I can’t think of a more dedicated fan and highly recommend Mike for this honor.”

Starkowski will be honored at the Alumni Association Awards Celebration Friday, October 11 at the UConn Storrs Campus, and the following day at the UConn Homecoming Game at Rentschler Field in East Hartford.

About the University of Connecticut Alumni Association The University of Connecticut Alumni Association strengthens lifelong bonds among all members of the UConn family by inspiring pride and providing quality programs and services that enhance the diverse university community. Founded in 1888, the UCAA is a group of former students and friends who care about UConn’s future. The goals of the UCAA are to connect 230,000 alumni worldwide, support students, and strengthen UConn. Membership is open to all alumni and friends of the University.

Taekwondo students head to national championships

By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER

Nine Rocky Hill kids are among a group of 10 headed to the Junior Olympics to test their martial arts abilities among others from across the nation.

They make up the Team Light of the World, and are taught by Head Master Tae Woo Lee and Ilseong Oh, two instructors at the US Olympic Taekwondo Academy, which is located on New Britain Avenue. The group is heading to Chicago, Ill. July 2 for the week-long 2013 USA Taekwondo National Championships.

Ages 9 through 16, the students have been in training for the last 10 months, but this week has been particularly strenuous, with practices running three hours every day.

“They’re excited, but miserable right now because preparation, mentally — gets pretty exhausting,” Master Lee said Monday while four of his young pupils were warming up for training, which hones their reaction, speed

and strength.

They learn breaking, sparring and forms, and if there’s anyone who could prepare them to compete among the best youth in the nation its Master Lee, a 4th degree black belt who built a taekwondo program for the U.S. Army’s 2nd Infantry Division in Korea, and has also medaled in the Korean Open and the International Championships.

But competition is not at the core of his teaching; students learn how to improve on their own, they don’t simply strive to be better than the rest.

“The most important thing about this program: it takes not just training — but there has to be a strong bond, relationship, between the coach and athlete,” he explained. “We have to trust each other.”

To qualify for the Junior Olympics, they have to get through state and regional championships first. Last year, Nicole Felice, 16, of Rocky Hill, won a Gold Medal in breaking and forms. While she was a green belt

Several members of the US Taekwondo Academy in Rocky Hill are heading to the Chicago, Ill. for the week-long 2013 USA Taekwondo National Championships.

then, now she’ll be proudly wearing a red belt — second only to a black belt, which marks the highest level of skill.

“I hope to get more learning experience in the ring by sparring

with different people; I want to get better if I‘m not already the best,” said Nicole, who likes to push herself to see how much she’s capable of.

It will be Rocky Hill resident Christian Cannata’s first year competing at Nationals, although he’s been doing the sport at different studios nearly his whole life.

“I started when I was 5 and at other places,” said Christian, 13, who has been working with Master Lee for 2½ years now.

“I’m very excited because it will test me to see if I can really be the best; I really want to be the best in the United States,” he said Monday.

This will be Nicholas Vestergaard’s fifth year at Nationals.

“I just hope to be a national team member by the time I’m 15,” said Nicholas, 11.

“That’s what the Junior Olympics is geared toward — making future national champions — Olympians,” Master Lee added.

The Olympic Taekwondo Academy is located at 41 New Britain Ave., Rocky Hill. (860) 436-9566.

WHS graduates all smiles, despite shortened ceremony Continued from Page 1

to study, eat right, study … find time to do your laundry, study, stay out of trouble, study, and text your parents in between classes,” he joked with the class, before challenging them to show compassion for others, in the same vein as the “26 Acts of Kindness” initiative that grew out of the school shooting in Newtown this past winter.

Cascio also presented the two Board Chair Awards, which are traditionally awarded to those students who show particularly high performance and effort throughout school.

Patrick Neilen and Antonio La Rosa were this year’s recipients.

Upon hearing his son’s name called, Joe La Rosa’s face suddenly lit up, as he was busy taking photos off to the side of the stage.

“I didn’t know he was getting this!” said La Rosa, who was looking forward to Antonio’s solo with the WHS Choraliers, who were scheduled to sing “It’s Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday” before the ceremony ended early.

“I’ve had three children go through the school, Antonio is my last,” he said.

But like the rest of the elders in the audience, he was all smiles when parents and grandparents were asked to stand and students broke out in applause, thanking them

On Monday evening, graduating Wethersfield High School students, their families and friends gathered at Wethersfield Cove for the school’s graduation ceremony. Unfortunately, rain and thunder storm shortened the ceremony.

for all they did to bring them all the way from childhood to high school graduation.

The 2013 WHS Commencement was broadcast live and be viewed online at WCTV14.com.

Wethersfield resident Patricia Hirtle spotted this black bear last week. She has taken to calling him or her “Wethersfield’s teddy bear.” She noted that the bear, “walked through the Woodward’s backyard to the Hirtle’s driveway, leaving paw prints with DNA. The Ziter’s bird feeder was the next target for a quick snack, before he trekked farther onto other friendly parts. Cautiously we await his return.” Although she and many others were excited to see the bear, authorities advise caution, and insist that no one approach any bear.

Tourism Matters!

Rocky Hill is blessed with several facilities in town that attract visitors from around Connecticut, indeed, from all over the nation. Many times I have witnessed cars with out-of-state license plates waiting in line for their turn to board the nation’s oldest ferry. One only needs visit the parking lot at Dinosaur State Park to see yet more out of Towner’s who come to Rocky Hill to visit these wonderful recreational tourist attractions. But let’s not forget the opportunity to attract tourist to Rocky Hill that our wonderful park system represents. Under the guidance of Parks & Recreation Director Lisa Zerio, our parks are full of activities that allow our residents to re-create the beauty of Nature in a public forum, often joined by people from outside Rocky Hill, who inevitably spend their money in Rocky Hill establishments. True also of those visitors and tourists who come to the recently cleared trails of Dividend Pond Park, and now Buckley Park, projects undertaken by volunteers under the supervision of Ed Chiucarello, in conjunction with the Park and Rec. Dept. Reality is – the more our town’s resources are developed into “destination locations” that attract money-spending people from outside Rocky Hill, the more opportunities exist to drive commerce to our local merchants.

Free Keeney Kooler concerts in July Wethersfield Historical Society has announced the performers for its free concert series in July.

The concerts will be Tuesdays July 9, 16 and 23 at 6:30 p.m. on the front lawn of the Keeney Memorial Cultural Center, 200 Main St. Bring your lawn chair, your family, your friends and your favorite snacks and enjoy some great music. There is free parking. In the event of rain, the concerts will be held indoors in Keeney Hall.

July 9: The band Number 9, a Beatles tribute band, will perform music from that iconic band, including some tunes not often heard in performance. This group has accumulated a repertoire of over 100 Beatles songs and is now performing all over the state. They cover a wide range of Beatles music from the exciting early years to the beautifully crafted and seasoned material of the later years.

July 16: The Jolly Beggars bring with them the rich tradition of Celtic folk music and storytelling. They will present their rich harmonies and expertise on guitar, mandolin, tin whistles, mandola,

banjo, bass, spoons and more, interspersed with traditional stories from Irish folklore.

During this performance Wethersfield Historical Society will hold the opening of our newest exhibition Connecticut State Prison Open Storage, a collaborative community exhibition that will explore the tenure of the prison while in Wethersfield 1827-1963.

July 23: The Tirebiter Band, an all-time favorite returns to our stage. Celebrating its 40th year with the same incredible energy and humor, they will present a varied repertoire from Swing Era to classic Rock ‘n Roll. The Hartford Advocate Readers’ Poll recently awarded Tirebiter the designation “Best Band” and the Hartford Magazine Poll awarded the “Best Band” accolade for several years running.

The Wethersfield Museum inside the Keeney Memorial will be open during the performances. The Keeney Koolers are generously supported in part by a grant from the Robert Allan Keeney Memorial Fund at the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving.

CCHD offers advice to keep summertime cookouts safe

Before lighting the grill, be sure to keep sanitation and food safety in mind. Be sure to wipe down and disinfect all surfaces.

Hand washing is the key to prevent any food borne illness; wash your hands for 30 seconds with soap and warm water before preparing and handling food and after handling raw meat, fish, poultry or eggs.

It is also important to practice good hand washing techniques after using the restroom, after handling children and before you eat.

Wash all fruits and vegetables before preparing, and use separate utensils and plates for cooked and uncooked foods to avoid cross contamination of foods. Make sure that there are plenty of clean utensils and plates, and do not use the same platter and utensils for raw as well as cooked foods. Harmful bacteria from raw meat and poultry can contaminate well-cooked foods and cause illness.

Temperature is very important to food safety, so use a food thermometer to check

temperatures. It is important to keep hot foods hot (at least 140 degrees F) and cold foods cold (below 45 degrees F). When defrosting meat, use a microwave oven and cook immediately, or allow the meat to defrost slowly in the refrigerator until it is ready to be cooked. Similarly, marinate foods in the refrigerator, not on the counter where warm temperatures will allow bacteria to thrive. Be sure to boil any marinades for at least three minutes if they contained raw meats and planned to be reused. When pre-cooking or partially cooking meats in the oven or microwave, be certain to put the partially cooked meat on the grill immediately, and cook all food thoroughly.

Safe minimum temperatures for meats, fish and poultry are as follows: Whole poultry — 165 degrees F; poultry breasts — 165 degrees F; ground poultry — 165 degrees F; ground meats — 160 degrees F. Beef, pork, lamb and veal (steaks, roasts and chops) — 145 degrees F and allow to rest for at least three minutes.

WETHERSFIELD EVENTS CALENDAR CONTESTANTS SOUGHT FOR MISS POLONIA CT 2014 PAGEANT: Contestants are sought for the Miss Polonia CT 2014 Pageant. All woman ages 17 to 27 of Polish descent are encouraged to register at www.misspoloniact.org or in person at the MPCT Office in Plainville. Appointments can be made by calling Bogusia or John Gladysz, state coordinators at (860) 883-2277 or email short bio with a recent photograph (headshot) to misspoloniact@ gmail.com. The pageant will take place Oct. 12 in Hartford. The winner will represent the state of Connecticut at the Finals Miss Polonia USA in New York City.

CRCOG MEETING: The Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) and the Towns of Bloomfield, Newington, Rocky Hill, West Hartford and Wethersfield invite all to a public meeting to discuss projects, programs and other measures the towns and region can take to prevent or lessen the damages caused by natural disasters such as flooding, hurricanes,

blizzards, tornados, drought, wild fires, and more. CRCOG is working with the towns to update a Natural Disaster Mitigation Plan which will help our communities deal with and reduce the losses caused by natural disasters.

We would like your ideas. The meeting will be held Tuesday evening, July 2, at 7 p.m. in the Bloomfield Volunteer Ambulance building at 12 Southwood Drive, Bloomfield.
