Wethersfield residents echo state, national trend favoring Democrats

By ERICA SCHMITT Staff Writer

Democrats in the national, state and local races swept Wethersfield’s election ballot Tuesday, winning across the board.

Almost 13,000 residents came out to the polls this Election Volume 53, No. 40

50 Cents

Day, with the Presidential race representing the highest number of votes.

7,166 voters chose the ObamaBiden ticket, while Romney and Ryan cut it close with 5,553 votes.

Wethersfield voters echoed the statewide trends, 52 percent selected Chris Murphy for U.S. Senate and 64 percent chose John Larson for Congress.

While the vast majority of town is located within the 28th District, a small portion of Old Wethersfield and the neighborhoods along the town’s eastern border fall within the 28th District.

3 proposals, 3 different possibilities for Wilkus Farm

By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER

The town is exploring three very different options for the house, aging barns and land at the Wilkus Farm property: continued farm use, a housing development or a

simple homestead.

It’s all up to the Town Council, who reviewed the three proposals at their meeting Wednesday after asking the public their opinion on who the town-owned property should be sold to.

CORRECTIONS An article in the Oct. 26 edition of the Wethersfield Post should have read that Beautifully Inspired Women’s Magazine is a bi-monthly publication.

“The Wilkus Farm was a very big issue for the community so the council feels getting public input on its future is important,” Town Manager Jeff Bridges said Tuesday.

The deal includes the 1.8 acre property at 138 Willow St. where the structures sit, as well as an additional 10 acres of the adjacent land for farm use, if desired.

Ron Drisdelle of RJD Development did not make a monetary offer, but instead proposed a land swap. The developer of a nearby Wethersfield neighborhood, Drisdelle also currently owns 4.2 acres on 214 Goff Road where plans were already approved for a five-lot subdivision valued at $325,000. The applicant has asked to trade this property for the Wilkus site, along with an additional 30,000 sq. ft. of the adjacent open space. His plan is to tear down the farmhouse and outbuildings and develop a six-lot subdivision on the land.

Marked by a desire to retain the property’s agricultural history comes an alternative plan from a third-generation Wethersfield farmer, whose intention is to completely remodel the house and barns for the storage of farm equipment.

His asking price is $205,000 without the right to develop the site, or $220,000 with the right.

Also included was a list of repairs to be made on the home structure and outbuildings.

This applicant made it clear his intentions for the property are purely agricultural, even submitting photos of his well-maintained tractors and farm equipment he hopes to store there. The adjacent 10 acres would be leased out for growing hay.

“In the future, I would also like to possibly plant and sell pumpkins, vegetables, compost and firewood,” reads his application letter.

Finally, the third asking price is $182,000, from a couple who have been town residents for over 30 years and own a masonry/construction company. They praised the historical value of the property in their application, discussing their intent to renovate the home for their daughter to live in.

“We would like to eventually improve and reuse the barns for storage and to house antique cars,” it also reads.

This is the third time the town

has solicited bids for the Wilkus Farm property, as it lacks necessary resources to upgrade the buildings.

To ensure a sufficient amount of consideration has been given to all proposals, no timeline has been set for the council to make a decision.

However, the hope is that the process can be wrapped up fairly soon as it has been more than a year since it was first put up for sale.

“We know people have invested

a lot of time and money into this, so it’s in the best interest that a decision be made expeditedly,” Bridges explained.

More than 800 take part in 3rd annual Jamie’s Run

By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER

For the Knotts family, Cove Park is a very special place.

Not because of its proximity to charming Old Wethersfield or the peaceful water views, but for the connections made there once a year that bring them closer to their daughter, the late Jamie Lynne Knotts.

After Jamie passed away in 2010 of a rare liver tumor at just 5½ months old, her family knew the best way to let her spirit live on would be through helping other families experiencing childhood illness.

From this grew the idea for a fundraising event, and soon sprouted Jamie’s Annual JK 5K

Run. This past Sunday marked same faces every year and also the third annual event and the to know every year we branch best year yet for Jamie’s cause — out farther and farther and bring the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center — where she lived her last happy moments with her family.

Over 800 people ran Sunday, helping to raise close to $30,000 — quite an amazing feat for a fundraiser that has only been in the works three years.

“We continue to be overwhelmed by the outpouring KURT KNOTTS of support from people we Jamie’s dad know and people we don’t know,” Kurt Knotts, Jamie’s dad more awareness to finding cures,” said this week. he added.

“There’s lots of waves, lots of Among the hundreds of parhugs, it’s wonderful to see the ticipants are many of the Knotts’

family members, who travel all the way from Colorado, Virginia and North Carolina to be at the event. There are also lots of volunteers that help make the day a success, including the entire University of Hartford Baseball Team, whose coach brings the guys along not only to walk, but also to help set up early in the day and clean up later on.

Live music, free food, hot cider, games and amusements also kept everybody enjoying the fun throughout the day.

It’s a lot of work to put on but, Knotts says, it’s all worth it.

“The whole experience of care at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center is just amazing,”

“The whole experience of care at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center is just amazing. They take care of the whole family, not just the patient.”

Knotts explained. “They take care of the whole family, not just the patient.”

He and his wife, who have a 5½ year old son Braeden and a 1½ year-old daughter Dana, consider the staff at the center like family, and look forward to presenting the check every year.

“It’s just a wonderful place were proud to still be a part of,” he added.

Rocky Hill voters favor Democrats, but turnout was low 72.1% of eligible voters turned out, 2008 saw 84%

By ERICA SCHMITT

Staff Writer

Voter turnout at Tuesday’s election was significantly lower in Rocky Hill than it has been in prior presidential elections.

This doesn’t echo the state trends, with nearly 80 percent of voters coming out to the polls across Connecticut.

The town’s election results do, however, emulate statewide results, with Democrats winning across the board.

Obama and Biden won over 56 percent of the town, U.S. Senator

Chris Murphy, 53 percent.

A total of 8,434 Rocky Hill voters made it out to the polls this year, or 72.1 percent of those eligible.

“That was very low,” Republican Registrar of Voters Patricia Bayer said Wednesday morning.

In both the 2008 and 2004 presidential elections, about 84 percent of voters in town exercised their civil rights.

Bayer’s take on the considerably lower turnout this time around is that the aggressive campaigning took a toll on residents.

“I think a lot of people were put

off by the negativity of all the ads this year,” she explained.

“I think a lot of people were put off by the negativity of all the ads this year.”

PATRICIA BAYER Republican registrar of voters

Those who did come out to the polls expressed faith in Congressman John Larson by a landslide, with 73

percent approval. John Henry Decker received 25 percent of the vote.

The same could be said for state Sen. Paul Doyle, who took 62 percent of the town’s vote; Joe Dinunzio, 38 percent.

Likewise with Rep. Tony Guerrera, who will continue serving Rocky Hill in the House of Representatives, after 77 percent approval, including 3,292 of those votes from the Working Families party.

On another note, both of the town’s referendum questions passed with flying colors.

The second phase of the Metropolitan District Commission’s Clean Water Project was approved

by 5,207 votes and turned down by just 2,033.

This will allow the appropriation of $800,000,000 in bonding, grants and loans to continue efforts to tackle area sewer overflow and nitrogen removal, decreasing levels of pollution in the Connecticut River and its tributaries.

Rocky Hill’s $10 million preservation of Farmland and Passive Open Space initiative passed by a 17 percent margin, with approval from 67 percent of voters.

Victories in Conn. reduce GOP influence in New England Connecticut voters helped Democrats make gains in the U.S. Senate and dimmed hopes of stopping the continued losses of the GOP in New England.

Democrats picked up one House seat in New Hampshire and may

pick up a second. In Massachusetts, Sen. Scott Brown, a Republican lost a seat to Democrat Elizabeth Warren.

Former Maine governor Angus King, an independent who will likely caucus with Democrats, won the seat of retiring Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe.

Democrats needed a net gain of 25 new seats to take back the House of Representatives, lost to the GOP in 2010.

Late Tuesday, it was unclear how many House seats Democrats would gain. But not likely enough to take back that chamber, lost to the party in 2010.

Connecticut’s Senate race between Rep. Chris Murphy, D-5th District, and Republican Linda McMahon was one of about a dozen competitive races that would determine which party would hold control of the Senate. Murphy won the seat.

The continued Democratic control of the Senate allows Blumenthal to remain part of the majority party there and gives him a better chance at promoting legislation. He’ll now be joined by Murphy.

The election of Democrat Elizabeth Esty to the 5th District congressional seat helped her party in the search for more House seats.

Esty’s win also means Connecticut’s delegation to the U.S. House remains Democratic.

Rep. Chris Murphy’s win of retiring Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman’s Senate seat also means Connecticut will send two Democrats to the Senate, the other being Sen. Richard Blumenthal.

Democrats won at least two additional seats in the Senate and possibly three. That still falls short of the 60-vote majority needed to end a filibuster or other parliamentary methods used to block legislation.

Wethersfield, along with the seven other towns involved in the Metropolitan District Commission’s Clean Water Project, approved the second phase of the 15-year project in the ballot’s single referendum question.

The $800 million issue was especially favored in Wethersfield, winning the approval of 9,007 voters, with just 2,871 people in opposition.

This will allow for the bond, grant and loan money to be appropriated to continue efforts in area sewer overflow and nitrogen removal, decreasing levels of pollution in the Connecticut River and its tributaries.

CCHD offers residents advice on avoiding, coping with strep throat

You wake up one morning from a full night’s sleep and you can’t help but notice that your throat feels like it is on fire. Drinking a tall glass of water, brushing your teeth, even the normal morning cup of coffee will not quench the burning inferno in your throat. Upon look-

ing in the mirror, you discover little white spots coating the back of your throat and find that it is painful to swallow. This season, don’t let strep throat keep you from your fall festivities.

Strep throat is an infection in the throat and tonsils caused by Group A streptococcus bacteria (called

“Group A strep”). This bacterium causes an infection which usually affects children ages 5 years to 15 years, but can happen to anyone. The bacterium usually lives in the nose and throat and is generally spread through contact with droplets from an infected cough or sneeze. Strep throat can also

∎ Over the counter medications, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) It is important to note that strep throat must be confirmed through a test at your physician’s office.

Many people think that just looking at the appearance of the throat is enough to diagnose, but it is not.

Once tested positive, your physician may give you antibiotics, which can reduce the length of time you are sick and reduce symptoms. Antibiotics can also prevent the spread of germs to family and friends.

People with confirmed cases of strep throat should stay home from work, school or day care until they have taken antibiotics for at least 24 hours. As always, the best method of prevention is to wash hands with warm water and soap for 20 seconds, or the length of time for two rounds of “happy birthday.”

For more information about strep throat or any other public health issues, please contact the Central Connecticut Health District, serving the towns of Berlin, Newington, Rocky Hill and Wethersfield at www.ccthd.org or by calling (860) 721-2822.

be caused by a variety of different factors, including allergens; environmental irritants, such as cigarette smoke; and chronic post nasal drip.

Symptoms of strep throat usually occur two to five days after coming into contact with an individual who is sick and can be mild or severe.

These symptoms may include sore throat, which usually starts quickly; severe pain when swallowing; fever (101 degrees F and above); red, swollen tonsils that may have white patches or streaks of pus; tiny red spots on the back of the palette, headache, nausea, vomiting, swollen lymph nodes, body aches and rash.

Treatments for strep throat can vary, but many helpful remedies include the following: ∎ Drink warm liquids, such as lemon tea or tea with honey ∎ Gargle several times a day with warm salt water (1 teaspoon of salt in 1 cup water) ∎ Drink cold liquids or suck on frozen Popsicles ∎ Suck on hard candies or throat lozenges ∎ A cool mist vaporizer or humidifier

With Sandy, Nor’ester, many schools have already used all their snow days

By JAQUELINE RABE THOMAS

connecticutmirror

As the state copes with the impact of an early November nor’easter, many school districts have already used up all their scheduled snow days — and it’s not even winter yet.

State officials hope districts won’t be forced to cut into their spring or other scheduled breaks, but they say it’s too early to determine if they will be granting districts waivers to the state law that requires schools be open for 180 days each year.

“It’s just too premature to address that issue now,” Education Commissioner Stefan Pryor said Wednesday as snow began to fall in downtown Hartford. snow days Source: State Department of Education For many school officials, these back-to-back school closures are déjà vu. Last school year, about one-third of the school districts in the state exhausted their snow days following Tropical Storm Irene and an early snowstorm that left thousands without power for weeks.

The department wrote to districts at the time telling them they

were going to wait and see how fierce or mild the winter was before determining if waivers would be necessary.

“Luckily, it was a mild winter. But we don’t know what it’s going to be like this year yet,” said Robert Rader, executive director of the state’s school board association.

As the state heads into this storm, the State Department of Education reports that 45 school districts — or almost one-third — closed for five or more days from Hurricane Sandy.

Rader reports it is standard practice for the overwhelming majority of districts to build five or six snow days into their calendar.

“It snows in New England. This shouldn’t be a surprise. These hurricanes though, they are something districts are not used to,” he said.

Last year, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said the natural disasters the state faced were not enough to convince him to back down on the requirement.

“Children deserve a quality education regardless of the weather conditions,” he said.

But Malloy did leave the possibil-

ity that spring and summer breaks will not need to be cut into, mentioning longer school days to make up the difference could be a possibility.

“Changing vacation schedules, elongating days, cancelling other holidays, I think that’s a better way to assure the children of Connecticut get the quality education they so richly deserve,” he said.

Thirty other states besides Connecticut have the 180-school day requirement, with the remaining states allowing districts to have longer school days to meet the hours of instruction requirements, according to the Education Commission of the States.

If Connecticut does change it’s mind and decide to relax this requirement, it would not be the first time a state has had to rethink their requirement because of natural disasters.

Webb-Deane-Stevens offering authentic 18th century Thanksgiving feast

Connecticut residents can be thankful that one of their forebears, a Miss Juliana Smith of Sharon, Connecticut, penned a letter in late 1779 describing in great detail the sumptuous Thanksgiving dinner enjoyed that year by her extended family, friends and neighbors. Smith’s letter was part of the research that led to the creation of an equally lavish bill of fare for the upcoming second 18th-Century Thanksgiving Dinner at the WebbDeane-Stevens (WDS) Museum, in Wethersfield, designed by culinary historian Paul Courchaine and WDS Executive Director Charles Lyle.

On Sunday, November 11, 2012, from 12 noon to 2:30 p.m., Mr. and Mrs. Silas Deane will host an authentic Thanksgiving feast for up to 140 delighted guests, commencing with a wine and hors d’oeuvres reception and 18th-century music (One of the wines served will be Madeira, considered a patriotic drink during the Revolutionary War as it wasn’t subject to British taxation and wouldn’t help fill England’s coffers). Guests can explore the Silas Deane House and engage the Deane family and their servants as they prepare for dinner.

At 1 p.m. a servant will ring the dinner bell and invite the guests to join their hosts in the Webb Barn for the feast. The authentic 18th-century menu, based, in part, on Juliana Smith’s 1779 letter, will include venison pie, roasted goose and turkey, chine of pork, pottage of cabbage, leeks and onions, Marlborough puddings and several vegetables. During dessert Courchaine will discuss details of the Smith’s Thanksgiving menu and the choices made for this year’s bill of fare.

In her fascinating letter of 1779, available courtesy of the Centerbrook Historical Society, Smith noted the sacrifices made by all during the American fight for independence, and said of her Thanksgiving repast, “Of course we could have no roast beef. None of us have tasted beef this three years back as it all must go to the army, and too little they get, poor fellows.” In her rare and articulate account, Smith further explained how state residents’ “resistance to an unjust Authority” had brought about suffering in Colonial Connecticut.

Tickets for the 18th-Century Thanksgiving Dinner are $75 per person, and include a wine and hors d’oeuvers reception, 18th-century music and an optional tour of the three historic homes at the museum following the event. Reservations are required and available by calling (860) 529-0612, ext. 12.

WDS will also offer Thanksgiving tours every weekend throughout November. Guides will highlight Thanksgiving traditions in Colonial America in one-hour tours of the three meticulously restored homes at the museum. Thanksgiving Tours - Weekends throughout November: Saturdays, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., Sundays, 1 to 4 p.m. $10 per adult; $9 per senior over 60, AAA member and active military; $5 per student and children (5-18), $25 per family (2 adults + children).

Terriers dominant in 55-21 victory over Bristol Central ByDAVE GREENLEAF Correspondent

033549

Going into Friday’s game against Rocky Hill, the Bristol Central Rams had a pretty simple game plan – establish a running game and use the offense to keep the ball away from the high powered Terrier running attack.

And for the first ten minutes the plan worked pretty well. But then the twin running threat of Chris Young and Alex DeNardo took over for the Terriers and suddenly the game was out of reach. Rocky Hill went on to a 55-21 victory over the Rams at Muzzy Field to improve to 7-1 and keep their postseason hopes very much alive.

The Rams came out of the blocks strong, putting together a long 80-yard march that used up nearly six minutes and put them on top 6-0 after a four yard TD run by Tyler Burrow. But it took the Terriers only 40 seconds and two plays to counter that long drive as DeNardo broke loose for a 43 yard scoring run The Rams came right back with an 80-yard Andrew Laviero to Keon Walton pass and run for a score and Burrow ran for two to put Central up 14-6 with five minutes left in the

opening period. But it was all Rocky Hill the rest of the way.

Young and DeNardo combined to carry the Terriers to the Central four. The Rams’ defense stiffened and forced Rocky Hill to take four plays to cover the final four yards.

The score came on a one-yard run by Young to tie the game at 14-14 after one period.

The Terriers put the game away with four touchdowns in the second quarter while their defense found the key to stopping the Rams. Young scored on runs of 20 and 57 yards and DeNardo took it 11 for a score.

Rocky Hill capped the period with a 33-yard pass from Troy Syme to Tommy Seaver as time ran out in the half.

In the same period, Laviero was sacked four times and the Rams had only one play go for more than three yards.

“We had a short week to prepare for this one,” said coach Sal Cintorino, “but we thought we had a decent game plan and for a while it was working. We wanted to move the ball on the ground and use our offense to keep the ball away from their backs. We moved the ball pretty well from the start but those are two

of the best backs we’re going to see this year.

“We needed to bend but not break,” he added. “We needed to slow them down and swarm to the ball. We knew that Young has averaged over 15 yards a carry and that his yards after initial contact were phenomenal. He played right to his average tonight. He did exactly what we were concerned about.” Young finished the game with 200 yards and four touchdowns on 12 carries.

He scored on runs of 43 and 13 yards in the second half. DeNardo carried eight times for 115 yards and a pair of TD’s. Neither played in the final period.

“We made some critical mistakes,” Cintorino added, “and they certainly took advantage of them. They don’t run many pass plays and we thought we were ready for what they do, but we made a big mistake and let one get away at the end of the half.”

“Rocky Hill is 7-1 for a reason,” he added. “They have played very well all year and they have some very good players. They made us pay for every mistake we made.” The Rams were able to put up some good offensive numbers, but the six quarterback sacks by the Rocky Hill defense took

a toll on the overall statistics. Burrow carried 27 times for 89 yards. Laviero completed six of 12 passes for 137 yards and two touchdowns. Walton caught two passes for 117 yards and a pair of scores.

The loss drops Central to 2-6 and dooms them to a sixth straight losing season. Central travels to Storrs

next week to take on an improving E.O. Smith club. “We just need to take advantage of every day we have from now to Thanksgiving,” said Cintorino. “EO Smith has been getting better each week. We just have to get focused and take it one day at a time to finish the season on a positive note.”
