it for the last few years,” said Jon Satz, whose Wood’s Market Garden in Brandon sells berries, along with many other vegetables, herbs and

2011 after Hurricane Irene, though it stayed in the southern regions. Blue-berries and raspberries are particu-larly vulnerable, according to UVM Extension berry specialist Vern

local growers learned about the pest

“In 2012, it was in most of New England,” he said.But the pest’s reach into northern

Vermont and the Champlain Valley last year was spotty. That was at

least partially because some of the crops that are most susceptible, like late-season blueberries and fall rasp-berries, are not as common because of early frost.“I would say almost everyone

who did fall raspberries got it, but raspberries are not a big part of your typical northern New England farm,” Grubinger said. Nonetheless, the Champlain Val-

By XIAN CHIANG-WARENBRISTOL/VERGENNES — Lo-

cal schools will be out for the sum-mer this week, but in community centers and summer camp programs across the north-ern half of Addison County, the Addison Northeast Super-visory Union Food Co-op will be hard at work providing free, healthy lunches to children for the third year running.“Last year we fed

an average of 300 kids per day,” said ANeSU Food Co-op Director Kathy Alexander. “This year we’ve expanded from 9

to 12 locations and we would love to serve 400 kids a day. We have also extended our program one week — last year it just felt like too long a

time between the end of our pro-gram and the start of school.”The lunches are

available to any child regardless of family income.Who pays for

these hundreds of free lunches? Not Addison County taxpayers (at least not directly). Alex-

ander explained that the federal gov-ernment will reimburse the ANeSU Food Co-op for all of the expenses

because under the federal Summer Food Service Program, in districts where over 50 percent of students are signed up for free and reduced meals, the government guarantees every child in the district a lunch for every day that school is out.The trouble in some areas is that

few organizations are set up to ad-minister summer food programs that have that kind of reach. In Addison County, the ANeSU Food Co-op is well situated to do so.“Our program is set up to deliver

meals,” Alexander said. “It’s what we do, we feed kids. If anyone has a kid that needs to be fed, we try to feed them.”Because the summer program is

zero-cost, it is not just limited to the

Sarah Holmes did some research on Africa earlier this year, she was as-tonished with some of the things she read.“I looked up a video on Africa that

showed how kids there are not being treated as well as they are here,” she said. “There are sicknesses there that are preventable, but they don’t have enough money.”So Sarah, a 3rd-grade student

at Cornwall’s Bingham Memorial School, brought the dilemma to her young classmates and teacher Janne Giles to see what they could do.Some brainstorming led to a logi-

cal and tasty idea: Why not compile and sell a cookbook, a food-related vehicle to raise money for nour-ishment and medicine for African children who are ill and don’t have enough to eat?Sarah took the idea and ran with

it. With a little help from her teacher and classmates, Sarah put together a letter this past March requesting reci-pes from Cornwall students in grades kindergarten-6.Her letter pointed out some alarm-

ing statistics: An African child dies every minute from malaria;; one in four African children have never been to school;; and more than 300,000 children worldwide (mostly in Af-

Vermont has taken the lead by

proposed health plan rates through

its insurance exchange, Vermont

Health Connect. Providing ac-

cess to quality health care is criti-

cal for all Vermonters who need

medicines essential to combat life-

altering conditions. But while the

state health exchange

seeks to provide uni-

versal coverage for all

residents, there remain

barriers to access for

thousands of patients

whose ailments are

often the most severe.

The goal of “insur-

ance for everyone” is a

good one, but the real-

ity is for many patients

it will come at a cost

that will squeeze them

even further in an al-

ready tight economy.

Barriers to access come in many

different forms. Cost shifting in a

way that could negatively affect

patients is what we’re seeing in the

exchange, but there are many more

roadblocks a patient could face.

Known as “step therapy,” insur-

ance companies — as a regular prac-

a medication other than what their

physician prescribed before cover-

ing the original medicine.

Fortunately for patients in Ver-

mont, some relief is on the way

against these egregious practices.

Your doctor is the person who

knows you the best. He or she

knows what your condition is, what

your medical history is and, there-

fore, what the right medication is

for you. No one else

should have the au-

thority to tell you what

treatments you should

follow, especially

someone who has nev-

er met you.

For people with can-

cer or other chronic

illnesses, the medi-

cine their physician

prescribes can be a

lifeline. But currently,

insurers can make pa-

tients fail on multiple

medications through step therapy.

That means more trips to the doctor,

if those drugs fail to help you, more

co-pays for all the prescriptions,

and more suffering for the patient.

For someone with cancer, time is

not on your side.

Another trend by insurers is the

requirement for a patient to take

a medication not approved by the

FDA for their condition, before the

patient can receive a medication

originally prescribed by their phy-

sician. That’s not health care, and

it’s not safe.

The use of step therapy is on

the rise. According to the Phar-

-

tute, in 2012, about 65 percent of

requirements to control costs of

pharmaceuticals, compared with 50

percent just two years earlier. But

Vermont joined several other states

this year in passing legislation to

limit the step therapy a patient is

required to go through. The legisla-

-

lin, will ensure patients have access

to the medication their health care

providers prescribe by limiting to

one the number of times a patient

has to fail on a different medicine

than what was initially prescribed.

The bill also ensures patients are

not required to take a medication

not approved by the FDA for their

condition.

-

lin, we owe our gratitude to Reps.

Sens. Virginia Lyons and Tim Ashe

for their help in shepherding these

important protections for patients

through the Legislature. This was

the right thing to do for patients to

to keep costs down.

Children should get vaccines before entering school

Some health care barriers remain

Community Forum

This week’s writer is Kelly Stoddard, director of govern-ment relations and advocacy in Vermont for the American Cancer Society Can-cer Action Network.

Though many children get their

proper vaccines before they enter

kindergarten, there are a few

families that refuse due to fear

or religious beliefs. This is not

acceptable;; for if those families

move elsewhere, an outbreak of

the disease they weren’t vacci-

nated for could cause an epidemic.

vaccinated children in Vermont

not seem like a lot, but those

children could be those that risk

contamination in communities.

The “herd effect,” or “herd immu-

nity,” states that if 85-95 percent

of the community is immunized,

then it will protect the other 10-15

percent from illness. However, as

seen in the 2012 statistic, Vermont

is at the bottom end of this range.

This means we are nearing closer

to not being able to protect the

community as a whole, so getting

vaccinated is vital for the health

of our community.

Last year, a bill was debated on

that proposed that all children en-

tering kindergarten be vaccinated

regardless of beliefs if the school

they are entering has an immuni-

this bill should have been put into

effect. By not vaccinating your

children, it is a danger to others

around you. Kids with special

needs that can’t get vaccinations

for medical reasons are endangered

by unvaccinated children. This

could cause death for not just your

child who isn’t vaccinated, but oth-

ers around them.

Yes, there is fear that children

that get vaccinated are at risk of

autism, fevers, pain, and multiple

injections done in a short time

period. However, just last April,

the Journal of Pediatrics per-

formed a study, looking for evi-

dence of a link between vaccines

They found no evidence, and lead

researcher Dr. Frank DeStafano

assures parents and children that

the vaccines are safe. There is also

fear of getting a fever after the

immunization. A fever after get-

ting a vaccine is actually a good

sign because it shows that your

immune system is cooperating.

These excuses are unrealistic and

only spread fear of an actual good

thing that us lucky Americans

have available.

So — those that are enrolling

children in kindergarten this com-

ing fall, do the right thing and get

your children vaccinated and help

protect our community.

urging caution. Nearly 100 drown-ing deaths have occurred in Vermont between 1985 and 2012 in natural water settings such as lakes and rivers, including at six popular swimming holes: Huntington Gorge, Huntington (more than 15 deaths);; Cobb Brook, Jamaica (12 deaths);; Bolton Potholes

Johnson;; Twin Falls, Saxons River;; Hamilton Falls, Westminster;; and New Haven River, Bristol.“There’s always a risk of drowning

while swimming, but if the water is high and fast these swimming holes are far from safe, and everyone should stay away under these conditions,” said Health Commissioner Harry Chen MD. “As an emergency room

of drowning, and in most cases these deaths are preventable. Swim holes are one of our cherished natural resources,

but we need to better inform people about the serious risks involved.” For the past several months, a group

dedicated to swimming hole safety has been meeting to discuss ways to improve safety and increase aware-ness about the risks of high water. The group is made up of representatives from the Vermont River Conservancy, the Burlington Legacy Project, Place Creative Company, the Health Department, the Agency of Natural Resources, including the Departments of Environmental Conservation and Forest, Parks and Recreation, Bruce Seifer, and attorneys Mark Kolter, Brian Dunkiel and Ken Schatz. The group is working to identify

causes of drowning deaths and deter-mine actions that could prevent inju-ries — such as posting warning signs, working with landowners and local businesses near drowning hazards, providing online access to information

showcases paintings by local artist Joan Curtis in an exhibit titled “At One with Nature: New and Revis-ited.” In describing the show, the artist speaks of wanting to extend an earlier theme: imagining (on a visionary level) that human beings could learn to co-exist with earthly climate changes and increasingly dramatic weather events.In a new series of paintings, titled

“Peaceable Kingdom,” that opens on Friday, Curtis depicts us — again in a fantasy vision — living at peace with the animal world and with wild creatures in danger of losing tradi-tional habitats.The exhibit runs through Sept. 2.

Brandon Music is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily (except Tuesdays), with their café serving lunch and af-ternoon tea from noon to 5:30 p.m. Call 465-4071 for more information, or visit brandon-music.net. THE SOUNDING BRASSAs part of the Music at the Mills

four to nine members, performs an eclectic variety of musical pieces, including light classical, popular standards and early 20th-century tunes originally composed for min-strels and the vaudeville stage. In many cases, the band has adapted arrangements intended for larger groups, and it also performs pieces that have been re-written from orig-inal piano works.The Sounding Brass musicians

are drawn from all parts of Addison County and they perform in part or together in various other local groups.Admission is $10, with all pro-

ceeds going toward the building res-toration.ROGER BOOK EXHIBITFriday marks an unprecedented

day for the Compass Music and Arts Center in Brandon — it’s the day

Friday to Aug. 18, the center will present “Breaking the Ice,” featur-ing the work of abstract expression-ist Roger Book. An opening recep-tion will be held on Friday from 5 to 8 p.m.Book’s journey as a painter didn’t

begin until the age of 43, when he decided to take a risk, leave his career in retail, and attend Green Mountain College in Poultney. He graduated with a B.F.A. degree and went on to earn a master’s degree in painting from the Rochester Institute of Technology.For more information, visit

cmacvt.org, call 247-4295 or email [email protected]. CMAC is located at 333 Jones Drive in Brandon.TWO BROTHERS TAVERNThere will be two live musical

Bristol BeatBRISTOL — A number of Mount

Abraham Union High School student artists have been featured in area art exhibits in recent months. In March, 11 were featured at the “Emerging Artists” show at the Art on Main Gallery in Bristol. The student artists were Maddy Chester, Fiona Cole, William Kittredge, Eliza Letourneau,

Jessie Lyons, Rider MacCrellish, Reed Martin, Emma Ober, Rachael Orvis, Morgan Salter and Alicia Stone.

During the month of April, the Walkover Gallery in Bristol hosted the Advanced Placement Studio Art Show. This exhibit recognized the hard work of talented Mount Abe junior Addy Campbell and senior Amanda Vincent. Addy and Amanda followed a rigor-ous curriculum in their AP Studio Art class, which culminated in the submis-sion of an extensive portfolio of at least 24 pieces of art work to the College Board as well as the art exhibit at the Walkover Gallery. Addy Campbell was also selected

for exhibition at the Annual Burlington Yoga Conference held at the University of Vermont in May. Congratulations to all of these talented students.In other news at Mount Abe:

shot 36-33, Valley went from a 63 on the front nine to a

story was Scott, who won nine of 10 events he en-tered this spring, including the Met-ro Conference two-man best-ball tour-nament on May 31 with Sweeney;; the two combined to shoot even par at that best-ball event, with Sweeney con-

tributing several birdies, Walch said. Scott also won the South Section-

The Tigers’ decisive surge on Friday began after MMU’s Alison Chivers took advantage of a failed Tiger clear and broke in alone on MUHS sophomore goalie Bai-ly Ryan to make it 5-3.The Cougars won the draw, but the

Tigers forced a turnover and freshman Emma Best scooped one of her game-high 10 ground balls before setting up a goal by sophomore middie Katie Holmes at 4:16.A minute later, junior attacker Kiera

Kirkaldy picked up an errant pass and fed sophomore middie Julia Rosenberg cut-ting into the fan, and Rosenberg made it 7-3. At 2:45, junior middie and co-captain Emily Robinson cashed in a behind-the-net feed from junior attacker Paige Viens, and it was 8-4.The Cougars then got what could have

been a momentum-changing goal at 1:13, when Marina Bowie connected for her third of the half.But the Tigers got the ball back with

seconds to go, and tossed to Emily Kier-

on the left side of the fan, and she threw the ball over two defenders to Kirkaldy on the far side, and her 20-foot shot hit the twine as the horn sounded to make it 9-4.Sophomore middie Sophia Peluso then

puddles, and we weren’t connecting,” Rob-inson said. “But I just think we had a lot of heart going into this, and we wanted this, and we showed that.”Balanced scoring boosted MUHS. Nine Tigers recorded

points: Peluso (three goals, assist);; Robinson, Rosenberg and

Kiernan (two goals and an assist apiece);; Holmes (two goals);; Best and Kirkaldy (goal and assist each);; junior attacker Julia Cluss (goal);; and Viens (two assists).“That was one of our team goals,” Robinson said. “We want-

ed a lot of different scorers today.”Coach Kelley Higgins also pointed to the Tiger defense’s

continued improvement on stopping solo runs, a problem high-lighted when Champlain Valley’s Kate Raszka scored 11 times vs. MUHS on May 15.On Friday, the MUHS low defense of senior Tiffany Dan-

yow and juniors Hannah Hobbs and Olivia Carpenter, with help from the Tiger middies, rarely allowed the Cougars uncontested looks at Ryan.“We’ve been working really hard, probably since the CVU

game … on slowing down the fast break, sliding over at the right time, that kind of thing, just the timing, and when to go, when to stay,” Higgins said. “And I just think even in these wet, slippery conditions they kept their heads about them and played really smart.”Of the three goals managed by MMU after the break, two

came from Jess Glenn on free positions, not in the run of play. Meanwhile, the Tigers continued to get good looks at MMU

At the other end, Ryan made 11 saves, some of them routine as the Tigers pressured Cougar shooters. But some were chal-lenging, none better than on Hope Denison on a second-half

cross-crease pass.“Baily came through,” Higgins said.The Tigers struggled at times to clear their own end, but Hig-

gins said the problem is correctable: They were rushing passes, some from Ryan, back into pressure.“Even at halftime we talked about it,” Higgins said. “We did

a much better job of it in the second half.”Overall, Robinson said the Tigers will be ready on Tuesday

for the Patriots, a team they defeated on the road early this sea-son, 15-13.

BRATTLEBORO — The Middlebury Union High School boys’ lacrosse team’s attempt to upset No. 4 Brattleboro in

the Colonels went on a 6-1 run to end the half, taking a 6-2 lead into the intermission.The Tigers rallied back in the third quarter, scoring three

after scoring on a two-man advantage.MUHS rallied once again with less than four minutes to

play, when Bobby Ritter found a cutting Higgins in front of the crease at 3:49, slicing the margin to 10-8.With 2:08 to play, the Colonels went on the offensive as

sailed just over the outstretched stick of a Tiger defender and right into the pocket of a cutting teammate who sank the close range shot.Just 30 seconds later, Higgins scored his second goal of the

game after a Tiger shot bounced off Brattleboro goalie Rom-

shot from the right wing to pull MUHS once again with two.

Tigers were unable to come up with the ball in a muddy scrum in front of the net.With less than a minute to play, Ritter attempted to pass

the ball inside to Keenan Bartlett, but as Bartlett turned to

offensive threat the Tigers were able to muster.

Sam Usilton tallied two goals and an assist for the Tigers,

to make it 5-0.Meanwhile, Paquette was mowing down the Raiders.

Through six innings, she allowed only one batter to reach, Dakota Clark, who singled cleanly in the third, and the Com-modores played errorless ball behind her. Paquette said she felt strong and was hitting her spots. “I was going in there ready to attack, just like our motto is.

And I feel like I trust our defense behind me,” Paquette said.The defense did not play well in the seventh, when after

a single, and Gonzales walked Brown, Plank and Aunchman to force in a run before Clark relieved her and worked out of trouble.In the sixth, VUHS added two runs off Clark. Chaput

“great performance” on the mound, and he appreciated their approach at the plate.“My kids are very aggressive. We have preached attack,

he nor they are taking anything for granted. “At this point, my kids are ready for anything, but we’re

not looking past anybody,” Sullivan said. “It’s always one pitch, one inning, one game at a time. So we’ll just go and practice for a couple days and try to get prepared for Lyndon or Otter Valley and go from there.”

who will become co-principal of the Thatcher Brook Primary School in Waterbury. Hackett emerged as the top choice.A Proctor resident, Hackett cur-

rently works as a reading interven-tion teacher at the Rutland Town School and as afterschool site coor-dinator at the Clarendon Elementary School. She is no stranger to this area, having served as director of the Addison County branch of the Building Bright Futures early child-hood program from August 2007 un-til March of 2009.

She’s happy to return to the area and head a school with which she is very impressed. Hackett made a daylong visit to Bingham Memo-rial School on June 4, during which she sat in on classes in each grade and met with community members. During that visit she encountered what she said were caring, enthusi-astic and high-achieving students;; a “dedicated and knowledgeable staff”;; and parents and community members who are clearly invested in their local school.“I was very impressed with the

involvement of the community,”

Hackett said.While she will serve primarily as

an administrator at Bingham Memo-rial, Hackett is prepared to do some

roles when called upon.“At small schools, you need to

jump in as needed,” Hackett said. “You wear many hats.”She and her husband Jimmy, an

electrician, will continue to live in Proctor with their dog, Seamus.

year Cornwall contract on July 1.She’s eager to get to work with

what she perceives as a very inquisi-tive student body.“The students here really want

to come to school,” Hackett said. “What more could a principal ask for?”Cornwall School Board Co-

chairwoman Maureen Deppman said she was impressed with Hack-ett’s background and interview on Thursday.“Susan has an extensive back-

ground in education and an un-derstanding and knowledge of the Common Core,” she said, referring to a set of education standards. “She understands the key elements in re-lationships between and among stu-dents, teachers and parents. I was impressed at the parent meeting that Susan was able to remember names and interests of our children from her daylong visit. Susan is student-focused and approaches each sce-nario with care and student learning

at the center. “She has strong curriculum-de-

velopment skills and experience with supervision and evaluation of teachers. Susan clearly displayed her sense of humor and her commit-ment to teaching, leading and learn-

and willing to learn from her own experiences and others. Susan was knowledgeable of our school. She is willing to discuss new ideas while also preserving the culture of the Cornwall school.“Her skills and abilities shared

in the interview process clearly matched the criteria of the hiring committee,” Deppman continued.Reporter John Flowers is at

class was able to visit

Rokeby to view the new

special exhibit, “Free

and Safe: The Under-

ground Railroad in Ver-

mont.” The exhibit has

the history of Rokeby’s Robinson

family, who were Quakers, and to

highlight their commitment to the

Underground Railroad. The ex-

and invites visitors to follow in the

footsteps of Simon and Jesse, two

fugitives from slavery who were

sheltered at Rokeby in the 1830s.

There are several interactive ex-

hibits designed to teach about what

it was like for the slaves to escape

and hide from the lynch mobs.

There is an exhibit about the trade

and agricultural boom that Ferris-

burgh experienced in the 1830s. It

was considered the “Merino wool

craze.” There are many displays

of books that the Robinson Family

both wrote and owned.

In addition, the exhibit has a

timeline that highlights the church

on the corner of Route 7

and Middlebrook Road

with the maple trees

in the front. Frederick

Douglass, the famous

abolitionist, spoke on

the steps of this church

as part of the “100 Con-

ventions” sponsored

by the American Anti-

Slavery Society. Born a

slave, he escaped when

he was 18 years old by

impersonating a sail-

or. He eventually went on to be a

trusted aide to President Lincoln.

education center and all the exhib-

its, call the museum at 877-3406 or

Chimney Point to offer new hands-on programsADDISON — At the Chimney

Point State Historic Site in Addi-son, site interpreter Karl Crannell on Saturday, June 15, will offer the

monthly third Saturday programs, “Blast from the Past: How They Made It in New France.” The program runs be-tween 1:30 and 3:30 p.m. June’s program looks at the French soldiers who served at the French fort at Chimney Point in the 1730s and their clothing.The French soldiers

were issued a white coat as part of their an-nual clothing allowance. Before they could wear their new

-

lor. The previous year’s dirty and threadbare coat was mended and

turned, which means taking the coat apart and reassembling it with the clean side of the cloth facing out. The new coat was worn only on spe-cial occasions, while the old coat became part of the soldier’s everyday dress.Using a completely

cut-apart coat, Cran-nell will demonstrate the techniques used by 18th-century tailors to

coat into something a French soldier would be proud to wear. Visi-

tors will be invited to try their hand at hand-sewing and some might be

asked to try on parts of the coat to

discuss some of the recent archaeo-

us about the long and important French history at Chimney Point.The July 20 program will focus

on military engineering.The Chimney Point State Historic

Site is located at 8149 VT Route 17, at the foot of the new Lake Cham-plain Bridge. It presents the history of the three earliest cultures here — Native American, French Colonial, and early American. Call 802-759-2412 for information. Admission is $3 for adults and free for children under 15. The site is open Wednes-

days through Sundays and Monday holidays through Oct.14, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.For information about Vermont’s

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND ANIMAL WELFARE CENTERWhat a handsome boy! I’m Dexter, one of the many

special and sweet dogs here at the humane society.

my surroundings, I’m very sweet and love to get attention. I like to go for walks, and I’ve improved greatly on my leash skills. I also love to play fetch! I’ve had a rough go of things before I came to be at the shelter, so I will need for my new owners to provide me with leadership and a good routine. Once I bond with you, I will make a wonderful friend!

I can be selective with other dogs and I seem to be shy around cats. I have no known experience with children.

I have so much potential and am so deserving of a loving and trusting home. Come meet me today and see what a special and cute boy I am!

Hi, my name is Roger. I’m a young, smooth, brown and black coated bunny who loves to play! I’m very handsome and sweet too!

I’m a young boy at only 1 year old, so I’m playful, fun and love to run around and stretch my legs! I would be a good playmate for another bunny buddy. I enjoy being petted, and I also enjoy treats such carrots, parsley and yummy greens.

Please come meet me today. I’m such a handsome boy!

spired to help following a personal visit by Dr. Charles F. MacCormack, former president and CEO of Save The Children, and a Middlebury Col-lege student from the African nation of Burundi. Save The Children assists children in Africa.She asked each student to consult

with their folks and return with a fa-vorite dinner and dessert recipe.Before too long, she had received

more than 30 recipes — and we’re not talking about pedestrian fare.The little book outlines the ingredi-

ents and cooking directions for com-

fort-food classics and gastronomic delights, such as West African peanut soup, breakfast risotto, chickpea cur-ry, “Grandma Condino’s meatballs” and rosemary roasted chicken with potatoes. Featured desserts include key lime pie, peanut butter cup cook-ies and lemon pound cake.Sarah took the completed recipe

to press on Friday, book sales had ex-ceeded $200. Most of the purchasers

to date have been students’ families, though Sarah sold some additional copies at her older sister’s lacrosse game in Middlebury.Sarah is eager to try some of the

It’s against the law to discriminate when advertising housing related activities.

Particularly on sites like Craigslist.

And it’s easier to break the law than you might

think. You can’t say “no children” or “adults only.”

There is lots you can’t say. The federal government

is watching for such discrimination.

MIDDLEBURY — In recogni-

tion of Dairy Month, Roger All-

bee, former Vermont secretary of

agriculture, will present a talk on

the history of dairy in Vermont on

Friday, June 14, at 6:30 p.m. at the

Sheldon Museum in Middlebury.

The talk is presented in conjunction

with the Sheldon’s current exhibit

“From Dairy to Doorstep,” a part-

nership with Historic New England.

Admission is free but donations are

welcome.

Allbee is chair of the University

of Vermont College of Agriculture

and Life Sciences Advisory Board.

He was Vermont secretary of Ag-

riculture, Food and Markets under

Gov. Jim Douglas and in 2012 was

inducted into the Vermont Agricul-

tural Hall of Fame. Allbee was an

early advocate for buying local and

direct from the farmer. He received

his B.S. in agricultural economics

from the University of Vermont,

and a master’s in agricultural eco-

nomics from the University of

Massachusetts. He has completed

the Cornell University Agricultural

Executives Program, and the Har-

vard Business School Agribusiness

Seminars.

Allbee’s career in agriculture in-

cludes a stint as executive director

of the USDA Farm Services Agency

for the state of Vermont and a long-

time consultant in agribusiness and

international trade. He co-founded

AGTECH, an agricultural trade

and export concern that was the

-

berries and cranberry products in

Hungary and the Czech Republic.

As secretary of agriculture, Allbee

administered one of the agencies

with the most diverse and publi-

cally watched responsibilities in the

state of Vermont. Under his leader-

ship, the agency oversaw animal

health and welfare;; agricultural de-

velopment, weights and measures;;

water quality and nutrient manage-

ment;; invasive and exotic pests and

and fertilizer testing;; milk and meat

and food safety;; and international

trade and policy.

It has been said that his work on

the Vermont housing and conser-

vation board brought a “working

landscape” perspective to farmland

conservation. He linked tourism

and economic development to agri-

culture in a very public way.

previously he was a member of

the U.S. House of Representatives

committee on agriculture and ex-

ecutive director of the USDA Farm

Service Agency in Vermont. Al-

bee developed strong relationships

with Quebec and France — both of

which celebrate and promote their

place-based foods. He was lauded

application for Vermont products.

Allbee was also vice president

and senior staff of the former Farm

Cornell University Extension spe-

cialist. Today he is a senior scholar

in residence and adviser on agricul-

ture and food systems to the presi-

dent of Vermont Technical College,

an author, and an opinion columnist

of the well-known “What Ceres

Says” blog. Allbee resides in Town-

shend.

MIDDLEBURY — “It seems like we opened just yesterday,” says Town Hall Theater executive director Douglas Anderson. “It’s come as a shock to all of us that we’ve been at this for 5 years. I guess time passes when you’re having fun.”Once it opened in the summer of

2008, Town Hall Theater quickly changed Middlebury’s cultural

and social landscape. Not only has it provided a state-of-the-art home for the performing arts, but it has also become a center for a variety of community events, such as fundraisers for area nonprofits, weddings, conferences, meet-ings, book readings, classes and even the Middlebury Union High School junior prom. It’s a performing arts center but also

a vibrant community center — something its creators envisioned all along.“A town needs a big room,” says

Anderson. “We try to put no limits on what can happen in this build-ing.” Big-name performers like Ed Asner and Judy Collins have played THT — as well as school children and local performers big and small.

To celebrate the 5-year land-mark, THT is bringing back performers who brought down the house in productions since the building opened. On the bill are Kim Anderson (“Funny Girl”);; the cast of “Annie”;; Judith Dry (“Gypsy”);; dancer/choreographer Patty Smith;; bluegrass wonders The Connor Sisters;; pianist Diana Fanning;; the Hadippa Dancers;; Nikki Juvan (“The Music Man”);; Leigh Guptill (“Smokey Joe’s Café,” “Middlebury Does Soul”);; the Maiden Vermont chorus;; Chuck Miller and the house band;; and many more. To meet the demand for tick-

ets, the gala performance will be presented twice, at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Saturday, June 22.Between the performances, part

of Merchants Row will be roped off to create space for a street party, complete with food, music and a birthday cake. Those attending the

5 p.m. performance will exit the show directly into the street party. Those attending the 8 p.m. perfor-mance will come early (around 6:30 p.m.) to the street party and then move into the theater for the performance.“The street party gives us all a

chance to whoop it up a bit,” says Anderson. And there’s a lot to cheer. Seven Days recently wrote that “Addison County’s shire town is becoming one of Vermont’s premiere cultural destinations.” Town Hall Theater is a real grass-roots success story, and the model for many other communities who are trying to restore and revive their historic theaters.Tickets are $35, and include the

show and food at the street dance. Tickets are available at www.

townhalltheater.org, (802) 382-9222(noon-5 p.m., Monday-Saturday) or at the door, if available.
