DIY projects that can conserve energy around the house
Home renovation projects can pay numerous dividends. Renovations can have a positive effect on resale value,
make homes more livable for residents and, in some ways, make homes more affordable.
Renovation projects that aim to conserve energy can save
homeowners substantial amounts of money. Such projects
don’t often require considerable effort or even sizable financial
investments, which can make homeowners skeptical as
to just how much they can save after completing the project.
But the scale of a project may have little to do with how much
homeowners will save. For example, the U.S. Department of
Energy notes that a relatively effortless task like turning back
a thermostat between 7° and 10° F for eight hours per day can
save homeowners as much as $83 per year. A more laborintensive
task like planting shade trees saves homeowners an
average of between $35 and $119 per year.
When looking for ways to conserve energy around the
house and save money, homeowners need not necessarily
commit to expensive projects. The DOE notes that the
following are some energy-saving projects and details what
homeowners can expect to save after completing them.
While each individual project may not result in jaw-dropping
savings, homeowners who follow many of these recommendations
may end up saving more than $1,000 per year.
PROJECT: INSTALL EXTERIOR
LOW-E STORM WINDOWS.
What is it? Low-e windows reflect infrared heat back into
a home. Such windows are coated with an ultra-thin layer of
page 2 The WORLD November 18, 2020
metal that improves the window’s insulation ability.
How much can I save? Homeowners who install low-e
windows can save between 12 and 33 percent on their annual
heating and cooling costs.
PROJECT: SEAL UNCONTROLLED AIR LEAKS.
What is it? Air leaks let cool air in during winter and
warm air in during summer. Caulking, sealing and weather
stripping all cracks and large openings can cut back on air
leaks that are costing you money. The DOE recommends
hiring a contractor to seal any leaks on heating and cooling
ducts.
How much can I save? Homeowners who seal uncontrolled
air leaks can save between 10 and 20 percent on their
annual heating and cooling bills.
PROJECT: INSULATE THE WATER HEATER TANK
What is it? New water tanks are likely already insulated.
But homeowners with older hot water tanks can insulate
their tanks with a water heater insulating blanket kit.
How much can I save? Insulating a water heater tank can
save homeowners as much as 16 percent on their annual
water heating bills.
Even the smallest DIY projects can produce big savings.
More information about energy-saving home improvement
projects can be found at www.energy.gov.
UNDERSTANDING R-VALUES
Insulation recommendations are based on certain
factors that coordinate with regional climate zones to
increase energy efficiency. These factors are known as
R-values. The R in R-value stands for “resistance,” and
refers to how certain products resist the flow of heat
through walls, floors and ceilings. Products should reduce
heat escape so heat is kept on the right side of the wall. In
summer this means outdoors, in winter it means indoors.
R-values relate not only to insulation, but also to walls,
windows and other barriers. R-values also coordinate to
the type, thickness and density of the material being used.
The higher the R-value, the more resistant to heat the
product is. The U.S. Department of Energy coordinates
R-value to climate zones 1 through 7 (1: Tip of Florida;
7: Canadian border). A higher R-value is needed in Zone
7 and a lower R-value is necessary in Zone 1. Those
embarking on home improvement projects that involve
choosing between R-values are urged to speak with a
professional or to visit the Department of Energy website
(www.energy.gov) to determine which R-Value is ideal
for their homes.

As Covid-19 Cases
Rise, Governor Phil
Scott Announces New
Mitigation Measures
To slow the spread of COVID-19 as cases and hospitalizations
rise in Vermont and throughout the nation, Governor
Scott has implemented several temporary limitations on social
gatherings and business operations.
This news follows daily case counts of 72 reported on
Wednesday, 109 reported on Thursday and 84 on Friday, as
well as an increase in hospitalizations in Vermont.
“We’ve had tremendous success thanks to the hard work of
Vermonters, but we are at a pivotal moment,” said Governor
Phil Scott. “We have an opportunity right now to get our arms
around this record growth and return to the case stability
we’ve grown accustomed to, but we all have to step up and
recommit to following all current health guidance and to limit
our contacts as much as possible. At the same time, the State
is actively expanding testing and contact tracing protocols, so
we are even better positioned to hunt this virus down and stop
it in its tracks.”
To slow the spread, ensure hospitals are not overwhelmed,
help schools continue to offer in-person instruction and keep
as many Vermonters working as possible, the State has targeted
new mitigation strategies to address the areas that
appear to be driving the spread. Since October 1, 71% of the
cases associated with an outbreak are associated with an outbreak
from a private party or social gathering.
The following measures are effective Saturday, November
14 at 10 p.m., unless otherwise noted. The Agency of
Commerce and Community Development will provide additional
guidance as needed.
PUBLIC AND PRIVATE MULTI-HOUSEHOLD
SOCIAL GATHERINGS PROHIBITED
Attendance at all public and private social gatherings,
indoor and outdoor, including social gatherings incidental to
ceremonies, holiday gatherings, parties and celebrations, shall
be limited to participation with only members of a single
household. Individuals who live alone may gather with members
of their immediate family residing in a different household.
RESTAURANT HOURS AND SEATING LIMITS
Restaurants must close in-person dining at 10 p.m., but may
provide curbside and delivery service after 10 p.m. For inperson
dining, restaurants must seat only one household per
table, in accordance with existing capacity limits and the new
restriction on multi-household gatherings.
CLOSURE OF BARS AND SOCIAL CLUBS
Bars and social clubs will be closed for in-person service
until further notice. Curbside and delivery service is allowed.
PAUSING RECREATIONAL SPORTS
Youth and adult recreational sports activities, not related to
Vermont Principals Association sanctioned school sports, are
suspended until further notice.
TELEWORK REQUIREMENTS
All businesses, non-profits and government entities shall
reinstitute telework policies for all employees to the maximum
extent possible. In person meetings are strongly discouraged
and should be held by telephone or video conference
whenever possible.
CONTACT TRACING AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS
All restaurants and other businesses hosting non-essential
activities shall maintain a 30-day log of employee and guest
names and contact information in case contact tracing is
required by the Health Department. These individuals are
consenting to be contacted by the Health Department Contact
Tracing Team. Further, all Vermonters are directed to comply
with requests made by the Contact Tracing Team. Finally, college
students returning home in Vermont (from in-state and
out-of-state schools) shall quarantine for 14 days or seven
days with a negative COVID-19 test and testing is strongly
encouraged.
“We rely on data to guide each and every decision we
make, and that data has shown us a clear picture of a rising
tide that could have serious consequences,” said Health
Commissioner Mark Levine, MD. “Whether it’s friends or our
own family members, we need to limit any social activities to
our own households to protect all these people that we don’t
even know we’ve put at risk – where we work, where we
learn, where people live in situations that make them more
vulnerable. And we need to make these sacrifices now.”
These steps add to actions taken over the last several days,
including requiring quarantine for all non-essential out-ofstate
travel by Vermonters and for all travelers entering
Vermont from another state; expanding testing opportunities
for Vermonters; and increasing outreach to assess and encourage
compliance with travel and gathering guidance. Governor
Scott has also directed the state’s emergency response team to
prepare to execute existing surge plans, including re-deploying
field hospital sites as a precautionary measure.
Under Addendum 8 to the Amended and Restated Executive
Order 01-20, Governor Scott has also extended the State of
Emergency to December 15.

During the 10th annual Charity Sale, Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel and its customers collectively raised

Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Has Donated Over
$161,000 to the Vermont Foodbank and JCEO
Plattsburgh Foodshelf Over the Past Decade
On Saturday, October 24th, locals shopped
till they dropped, and raised more than
$22,000 to fight hunger in our area.
During the 10th Annual Charity Sale,
Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel and customers collectively
raised $22,283 for the Vermont
Foodbank and JCEO Plattsburgh Foodshelf.
“During the pandemic, the Vermont
Foodbank has nearly doubled the amount of
food it is distributing to meet the need,” says
Vermont Foodbank CEO, John Sayles. “We
are in the midst of a hunger crisis unlike anything
we’ve seen in our lifetimes, and it is
going to take all of us working together to
ensure that everyone in Vermont has enough
food. We are deeply grateful for the generosity
of partners like Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel
in helping ensure that our neighbors have
access to the food they need to thrive during
these challenging times.”
For the month of October, Lenny’s customers
were encouraged to make a $10 donation
to the Vermont Foodbank or JCEO
Plattsburgh Foodshelf in exchange for a custom
canvas tote bag and exclusive access to
the storewide sale. 100% of the donations
collected went directly to the non-profit organizations.
“Our customers have astounded us once
again with their generosity,” said Mark
McCarthy, Co-Owner of Lenny’s Shoe &
Apparel. “They are committed to making a
difference in the lives of our neighbors. To
date, we have donated over $161,000 to take
action against food insecurity in our area.”

Bringing Warmth to Vermonters
Experiencing Homelessness this Winter
Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel
has joined the Champlain
Valley Office of Economic
Opportunity to support people
experiencing homelessness
by donating 145 pairs of
warm winter boots.
When the pandemic began
earlier this year, much of
Chittenden County’s homeless
population was moved
from traditional homeless
shelters, where social distancing
is nearly impossible,
to the Holiday Inn Emergency
Shelter managed by CVOEO.
The Holiday Inn in South
Burlington is currently housing 145 individuals
experiencing homelessness, making it the largest
shelter in the state.
CVOEO has gone above and beyond providing
temporary shelter. They provide an array of

a COVID-19 vaccine, once one is produced and distributed to
the state.
The State has submitted responses to a series of questions
from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
laying out the framework for vaccine distribution and
Vermont’s preparedness. The federal government, which is
responsible for nationwide distribution of vaccines, still needs
to provide details on many logistics surrounding a potential
vaccine, and this interim COVID-19 vaccination plan will
evolve as new information comes forward.
A COVID-19 Vaccination Planning Team was convened in
July to begin this process and is responsible for fully developing
the vaccination plan. This team includes experts from the
Department of Health, Vermont Emergency Management, the
University of Vermont Medical Center (Vaccine Testing
Center and Pediatrics) and the Agency of Digital Services.
Assuming initial supply is limited, the State’s interim plan
lays out a phased approach, subject to change, as follows:
Phase 1
Phase 1a “Jumpstart Phase”
• High-risk health workers
• First responders
Phase 1b
• People of all ages with comorbid and underlying conditions
that put them at significantly higher risk
• Older adults living in congregate or overcrowded settings
Phase 2
• K-12 teachers and school staff and childcare workers
• Critical workers in high risk settings – workers who are
essential to the functioning of society and at substantially
higher risk of exposure
• People of all ages with comorbid and underlying conditions
that put them at moderately higher risk
• People in homeless shelters or group homes for individuals
with disabilities, including serious mental illness, developmental
and intellectual disabilities, and physical disabilities or
in recovery, and staff who work in such settings
• Staff, workers and occupants in prisons, jails, detention centers,
and similar facilities
• All older adults not included in Phase 1
Phase 3
• Young adults
• Children
• Workers in industries and occupations important to the functioning
of society and at increased risk of exposure not
included in Phase 1 or 2
Phase 4
• Everyone residing in the United States who did not have
access to the vaccine in previous phases

Hunters Asked to Help Collect Deer Biological Data
The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department is asking hunters
for help in a statewide initiative to gather more biological
data on the state’s deer population. Hunters who get a deer
during the November 14-29 regular deer season are asked to
provide an incisor tooth from their deer.
Biologists are collecting middle incisor teeth from all regular
season bucks in order to evaluate regional differences in
ages and antler characteristics as well as to help estimate
population size, growth rate, health, and mortality rates. Each
tooth will be cross sectioned to accurately determine the
deer’s age, and the results will be posted on the Fish and
Wildlife website next spring.
Tooth envelopes can be picked up at deer reporting stations
by practicing social distancing and wearing a face covering.
• • •
• • •
• • •
• • •
If you choose to report your deer online, you can still provide
a tooth by dropping it off at a reporting station by November
30, or by mailing the tooth along with the date of kill, your
name and Conservation ID to: Deer Project, Vermont Fish &
Wildlife Department, 271 North Main Street, Suite 215,
Rutland, VT 05701.
“Knowing the ages of harvested deer is critically important,
and more information allows us to make better management
decisions,” said Nick Fortin, Vermont Fish and Wildlife’s deer
project leader. “To produce accurate population estimates,
and to better assess our current management strategies, we
really need to get teeth from as many bucks as possible.”

Barre Mayor Lucas Herring sets out to replace the labels on the Sidewalk Butlers in downtown Barre
and near Currier Park with assistance from Porter and Miranda Walbridge, Spaulding students who
are members of OVX and SADD (Our Voices Xposed and Students Against Destructive Decisions)
working on youth tobacco prevention and community service to promote a healthy community for all.
Also assisting are Zoey Pickel, the Vermont Youth Tobacco Ambassador and Ann Gilbert, Director of
Central Vermont New Directions Coalition serving Washington County. Tossing cigarette butts in these
receptacles keeps butt litter off the streets and is better for the environment as Barre Department of
Public Works empties the Sidewalk Butlers and partners with Central Vermont Solid Waste Management
District for recycling.

Harriet Irene (Morse) Gallagher
Harriet Irene (Morse)
Gallagher, 87, of Calais,
passed away peacefully in her
home on November 5, 2020
due to complications of
Parkinson’s Disease. She was
born in Montpelier, Vermont
on February 27, 1933 to Ira
Morse and Eva Davis Morse.
Harriet grew up on her family
farm in Calais, and attended
Montpelier High School graduating
in the class of 1951. She
married Gregory Oscar
Gallagher in September of
1956, and together they raised
their three children in Maple Corner. Harriet and Greg shared
many years together until Greg’s passing in 2009.
Harriet was a lively woman with a keen sense of humor.
She loved all animals and had an affinity for the great outdoors.
Her greatest love and biggest hobbies revolved around
her horses and horseback riding; she’d never turn down an
adventure, from cross-country skiing (sometimes towed by
her dogs), to dogsledding, hiking, camping, and swimming, to
name just a few. She loved bluegrass music, and after learning
to play the fiddle in her 60’s, she enjoyed many years of playing
music with her friends at gatherings and with her granddaughter,
Madison. After retirement, Harriet and Greg
explored the U.S. and Canada in their motorhome that they
fondly called “Ol’ Betsy.” They particularly loved spending

away of natural causes on Thursday, Nov.
5, 2020, at Lincoln House with her family
at her bedside. Born April 27, 1926, in
Fort Myers, Florida, she was the daughter
of Walter Hosey and Hazel Marie
(Duvall) Tew. In her early childhood, the
family moved to Port Arthur, Texas, and
later to Houston where Gloria attended
grade school, and eventually to Fort Worth where she graduated
from R. L. Paschal High School in 1943. After graduating,
Gloria worked for a Montgomery Ward mail order house,
as well as for Mary Flake in the stenography pool. Shortly
after starting at Montgomery Ward, she was selected to be a
private secretary to Parks Cope, the industrial engineer for

Supply Co., Gloria became a hostess for the U.S.O., with her
former boss, Mary Flake. Gloria traveled to many clubs and
military bases as a U.S.O. hostess and it was at one of these
dance events that she met her future husband, Wayne Newton.
On Nov. 16, 1946, she and Wayne were married in Fort Worth,
Texas. They moved to Barre, Vermont, where they stayed for
a short while before moving to Bethel, and back to Barre.
During this time, they purchased a camp at Nelson Pond,
where they stayed during the summer months. Wayne’s
employer transferred him to Burlington in 1961 and then they
purchased a camp at Iroquois Lake, which they renovated and
thoroughly enjoyed from the last day of school until the start
of school in September. Gloria’s memberships included the
First Congregational Church of Berlin, Hedding United
Methodist Church of Barre, and a lifetime member of the
Order of the Eastern Star (OES) #57. In her spare time, she
enjoyed her time as a U.S.O. hostess, singing with Harmony
Inc. and the Barre Tones for many years, as well as sewing,
cooking, baking and knitting – 100 pairs of mittens for children
in kindergarten. Survivors include her sons, Douglas of
South Barre, Brian of Randolph Center, and Stanley Carroll
of Essex Junction, and their respective spouses, Leslie, Marge
and Mary; and Richard of Chandler, Arizona; Deane of

Hey MOM, GRAM, GREAT GRAM!
Wow, its been a year since
we said our last goodbyes. it
doesn’t seem possible that
so much time has gone by. It
seems just like yesterday when
we watched you take your last
breath, and even though it was
your last breath, its been hard
for us all to take one, hard to
speak your name without that pain
in our hearts and tears on our cheeks. YOU
were a much bigger part of us ALL than WE
even knew. A part that is missed daily, we
speak of you often, and use your sayings in
our daily lives. We point out to each other
when we each show a side of you. Our love
for you will never go away. You
surely made your mark on all
of us one way or another and
that is something we are so
grateful for.
We will not take up too
much more time, just Always
Know, You Are Loved, Remembered,
And Missed So
Very Much.
Love Your Children, Grandchildren &
Great Grandchildren.

Ann Meriweather
(Skeels, Wilkinson) Nielsen
MONTPELIER, VT - Ann Meriweather
(Skeels, Wilkinson) Nielsen, “Meri,”
passed unexpectedly in her home in
Montpelier, on November 4, 2020. If you
were lucky enough to have known Meri,
then you know that she gave a light to
everyone and everything in her path with
her immense happiness, optimism, kindness,
and beauty unlike any other.
Meri was born in Boston,
Massachusetts on August 15, 1940, to her parents Ann
Harima and Homer Griffith Skeels. The three of them moved
to Montpelier two years later. She lived the balance of her
childhood on Marvin and Hubbard Streets with her sister
Deborah Jane and her brother Frederick.
Meri married her first husband, Gordon Wilkinson on June
12, 1961. They were blessed with their two children, Lynn and
Michael Wilkinson, the highlights of her life.
Meri and Gordy separated, and though that was hard, Meri
continued to spread her love and light to both her children and
all of the lives that she touched.
On October 24, 1981, Meri married the love of her life,
Corbett Arnold Nielsen. They joined their families together
and became a blended family of six – Lynn, Michael, Cris,
Julie, Chad, and Jenne.
Meri and Corbett lived the majority of their days at their
home on Westwood Drive where they continued to build their
love story until their final days. The love that they shared was
amongst the most romantic of love stories, filled with passion,
friendly banter, and good old fashioned laughter.
Meri’s light has touched so many, and though there are too
many to list, know that she loved and cherished her family
and friends beyond measure. She will always be with us when
the sunlight shines and when the soft breeze blows. Her
memory will be carried on through the many wonderful stories
we share and the laughter they bring. Cheers to Mom,
Meme, Meri.
Meri is survived by children Lynn, Michael, Cris and
Chad; her son in laws Dana Griswold, Jerry Fitzgerald and
Frank Michaud; grandchildren, Jesica and husband Bryce
Woodard, Dakota Griswold, Tyler and Tara Fitzgerald, and
Emily Michaud, Corey and wife Lauren Michaud; and great
grandchildren, Makena and Brodie Woodard and James
Fitzgerald. She was predeceased by her parents, her sister
Debbie, daughters, Jenne Nielsen Fitzgerald and Julie Nielsen
Michaud and her beloved husband, Corbett “Corky” Nielsen.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made
to the Green Mount Cemetery, where Meri stood as vice
president for many years. A celebration of her life will be
announced in late spring of 2021.
Arrangements are being made by Guare & Sons Funeral
Home. Online condolences may be left at www.guareandsons.com.
Myrna Abbie Gray Whaples
1934 - 2020
Myrna Abbie Gray Whaples died peacefully
on November 5, 2020 at the
Franklin Country Rehab Center. She was
born at home on September 5, 1934 in
Plainfield, CT. She was the second
youngest of nine children. Myrna attended
Plainfield Grammar School (‘49) and
Plainfield High School (‘53). She attended
the Plainfield (CT) First
Congregational Church. Myrna met
Donald Whaples when he was home on leave from the Navy
during the Korean Conflict. They married seven months later,
on her birthday, in 1954. Myrna liked to say she earned her
MRS. They began a family in CT. Two years later, Myrna
moved to Ellicottville, NY when Don took a job working for
the Extension Service. In 1967, Don, Myrna and five children
settled into Barre, VT.
Myrna was an active member of the Barre Congregational
Church where she participated in their women’s group and
bible studies. During a brief period of time, she worked in a
local bakery. She loved being a stay-at-home wife and mother.
As a child, Myrna learned to sew through 4H and it served
her well. She loved picking out patterns and material to make
clothing. She created a number of matching Square Dance
Outfits for her and Don during their “do-si-do” days. One of
Myrna’s finest accomplishments was sewing her oldest
daughter’s wedding gown. Myrna enjoyed embroidery and
worked on many a pillowcase or tablecloth.
Myrna appreciated a good book and kept track of the titles.
It brought her great joy to pass that book along to someone
else who also enjoyed reading.
Myrna was proud to be a Plymouth Colony Descendant.
She was a member of the Rebeckah Hastings Chapter of the
DAR. While working for Johnson’s Bakery, Myrna served as
president of the Business Professional Women’s Foundation.
She and Don were members of the VT 251 motoring club
(bonus points if there was a yard sale in town).
Myrna understood the value of staying in touch with people.
She did a great job of corresponding with family and
friends by writing in her beautiful cursive. Consequently, she
received a vast amount of cards and letters back.
Myrna and Don moved to Essex Center in 2007. Don died
that year from ALS. Myrna was a remarkable caregiver during
that time. She then lived on her own in the apartment next
to her youngest daughter. She attended the local Methodist
church before moving on to join the United Church of

Scully; Bettie Jo, her husband John Rogers; Larry Whaples,
his wife Amanda; Gale, her husband Rick Weld; Walter
Whaples, his wife Kristine. Myrna leaves behind 12 grandchildren
and six great-grandchildren.
The family would like to thank the staff at Franklin County
Rehab Center for their generosity and “good kind care” during
Myrna’s stay. There will be no memorial service at this
time. If you would like to honor this wonderful woman, you

When It All Feels Wrong, Give Thanks Anyway
By Melissa Ruiz
Thanksgiving: it’s right in the name. A holiday for reflecting
on what we have been thankful for this past year, what we
are thankful for in general.
This year, however, this may be easier said than done for
some. The COVID-19 pandemic has made 2020 difficult, to
say the least, and it doesn’t seem to be showing any mercy as
we get into the holiday season.
Families have been kept from each other for months upon
months, creating a feeling of isolation for many. Work has
slowed down or shut down for many more, causing financial
insecurity. Tensions and anxiety have mounted for all citizens
surrounding issues of health and civil liberties, to name a few.
In the midst of such tumultuous times, it can be difficult to
remember that there are still things to be thankful for.
The CDC is not advocating for total isolation during the
holidays, but the organization does ask that families be mindful
of a few important safety measures.
Families should not host or participate in Thanksgiving
gatherings in person if they meet any of the following criteria:
If there has been a diagnosis of COVID-19 in the household
within two weeks.
If anyone in the household has been exhibiting symptoms
of COVID-19.
If anyone in the household has been waiting for COVID-19
test results.
If anyone in the house hold has been exposed to someone
with COVID-19 in the past 14 days.
If anyone in the household is at an increased risk of severe
illness from COVID-19.
The CDC also urges families to take into consideration, in
the interest of safety for all involved, community levels of
COVID-19, risk of exposure during any travel, location of any
gatherings (as far as ventilation and proximity of guests),
duration of gatherings and the number of people present during,
the health and behaviors of guests prior to gatherings
(ensuring that guests have been adhering to safety guidelines
thus far).
There isn’t any way around it. Things will have to be different
this year.
Let’s face it, sitting at the dinner table via facetime just isn’t
the same. Families all across the Granite State will likely be
facing that fact as their loved ones who may be learning or
working out of state may find themselves unable to fly home
for Thanksgiving dinner.
But we must try to be thankful that we will at least be able
to see our loved ones’ faces, be able to talk with them, and be
able to see with our own eyes that they are staying safe.
Menu planning and ingredient shopping, while stressful for
many, may have been a favorite part of the Thanksgiving season
for some. While grocery stores remain open as an essential
service, the experience may be dampened for those who once
enjoyed venturing around their favorite stores without having
to maintain six feet distance from other customers, or having
to follow one-way arrows through the aisles.
But we must try to be thankful that these stores are open,
that many offer online shopping with pick up service, and that
employees have been working so hard to keep the stores as
safe as possible for their customers.
The Macy’s Thanksgiving parade has been a Thanksgiving
staple for families all over the nation. But for the first time in
several decades it will not be held. At least, not in the way we
are used to. This beloved tradition that families look forward
to all year, the thing that would have been a more than welcome
escape from the dark year that has been 2020, will not

Statement From Governor Phil Scott On The Presidential Election
Governor Phil Scott issued the following statement:
“I want to congratulate President-elect Biden and Vice
President-Elect Harris. I also want to recognize this historic
moment as we see the first ever woman, and the first ever
person of color, reach the U.S. vice presidency. It is my greatest
hope they will be successful in uniting our country and
leading us forward through these difficult times.
“And regardless of who we voted for, each of us must do
all we can to heal our nation. We simply cannot go on with the
level of division and polarization we’re seeing. It is preventing
us from addressing our greatest challenges and strengthening
adversaries who want to dim the bright light of liberty
and economic opportunity that America represents in the
world.
“We are counting on President-Elect Biden to deliver the
principled, unifying leadership he committed to on the campaign
trail. We are counting on the Congress to find a better,
less partisan and more American path forward. And we are
counting on President Trump and his administration to honor
the will of the people, respect our democratic process and
commit to the peaceful transfer of power that is the very foundation
of our republic.
“For over 200 years our electoral process has stood as the
example to the free world, providing hope for people and
places where free elections are not guaranteed. We cannot let
our system fall victim to those who fail to live up to its values.
I want to be clear about this: Both Republican and Democrat
election officials in every state in the country stand by the
• • •
integrity of this process. Only legal votes are being counted.
“The voters have spoken. It is now up to each of us to rise
above the anger and divisiveness and to turn our focus to our
common humanity and love of family, freedom and country.
This is what real leadership would call on us to do – win or
lose.
“We can start by treating those with whom we disagree on
public policy or politics with dignity and respect, knowing
vigorous debate can still be civil. We can listen to, and learn
from, others – putting ourselves in another person’s shoes.
And we can work to find common ground rather than creating
conflict.
“Whether it is in our homes, churches, schools, sports or
the military – we teach our kids and young adults that character
and integrity matter. We must reapply these principles to
our public service. This is how we reunite in common cause.
“This is our moment in time to reclaim our moral compass,
move the United States forward and live up to our greatest
ideals: Equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for
every American.
“With every election, we are given a clean slate - a new
opportunity to rise to the challenge and accept the great
responsibility bestowed upon us by those we are elected to
serve. Let’s face that challenge together - moderates, conservatives
and liberals, Republicans, independents, and
Democrats - working together, respecting one another and
pulling in the same direction.”

“The Thin Red, White and Blue Line: Thanks to the Election
Workers Who are Showing the Resilience of Our Democracy”
By Patrick Leahy
The 2020 presidential election may be nearing an end but
it is not yet over, and it will be months before we know
the final results of some U.S. Senate races. But at a
time of heightened divisiveness and disillusionment in our
country, and in the midst of a worsening public health crisis
unlike any the world has faced in more than 100 years, we
should all take pride in the way that the thousands of poll
workers, vote counters, and state officials have conducted
themselves over these long days and nights.
We have seen the best of America, as they have carried out
their responsibilities with the utmost seriousness and care.
They have not been intimidated by threats or baseless claims
of fraud, even from the White House podium. They have not
succumbed to impatience or pressure. They have followed
their procedures methodically and meticulously, day after day,
hour after hour. It is the best evidence that, at its core, our
democracy is strong, despite relentless attempts by some,
including President Trump and members of his family, to sow
division and doubt, and even to incite violence.
It is the American people, and only the people, who ultimately
choose their leaders, by the simple act of voting. It is
not rocket science. It requires marking a box, and, for mail-in
ballots, sealing an envelope and dropping it in the mail. These
procedures have been in place for decades. President Trump
won in 2016 with the support of votes that were mailed in by
absentee Republican voters, and in some states he won by the
slimmest of margins. He voted in this election by mailing in
his ballot, so it is ludicrous to impugn the integrity of others
who mailed in their ballots. Each state counts those votes
Network (1976)
HHHH
Before the election, CNN featured a Coronavirus death
counter. Even when the pundits weren’t talking about
Covid, the body count was always on the screen.
This is an irresponsible thing for a news channel to do, and
I’ll tell you why.
A Covid death counter is more interesting when it is high
and when it is ticking ever higher – the faster the better.
Consequently, there are now higher-ups at CNN who want
more people to die. The problem with a body count is that it
requires fresh bodies, and it turns journalists into morbid
ghouls.
The best-case scenario with the CNN death tracker is that
they will simply inflate the number for ratings. If two sources
cite the body count for India as 110,000 and 150,000, CNN is
certain to publish the higher number because it is more sensational.
The worst-case scenario is that CNN – and its parent company
AT&T – will inflate the body count the old-fashioned
way: by killing people. If they could get away with killing us
for profit, they might just do it.
Is that far-fetched? The visionary movie “Network” doesn’t
think so.
“Network” is an articulate comedy that vividly condemns
network news and American media in general.
There might have been a time long ago when newspeople
tried to report the news, without political pressure or profit
motive.
By 1976, that idealistic notion was history. The line
between news and entertainment was already blurring. More
importantly, corporations were beginning to buy television
networks. Television news was becoming the propaganda arm
of the globalist establishment.
Faye Dunaway stars as Diane Christensen. She’s the forward-thinking,
amoral head of programming for struggling
network UBS. Diane will do absolutely anything for ratings.
Her reality show about a domestic terrorist organization – The
Mao Tse-Tung Hour – is already a hit.
Diane has a gift thrown right into her lap when drunken old
news anchor Howard Beale (Peter Finch) starts to lose his

be the same this year.
But we must try to be thankful that even though it will not
be the same, at least there will be something in its place. And
perhaps in its absence we can create new traditions, unique to
our own families, creating something to look forward to in the
years to come.
The list of reasons to dread this year’s holidays could go on
and on. But the same can be said for the list of reasons to be
thankful anyway.
Even though times are tough, we can be thankful that we

according to its own procedures, which vary from state to
state. And that is what they are doing, as their laws require.
There are multiple checks and redundancies in the processing
of each ballot to minimize the chance of error. We can be
proud that Vermont’s Secretary of State Jim Condos has
emerged as a national leader in providing clear guidance and
strong leadership in defending the right to vote.
One thing is clear: President Trump will again lose the
popular vote by a decisive margin. And the reason for so
many mail-in votes is obvious: the Covid pandemic.
Unlike any time in U.S. history, President Trump has called
for the vote counting to stop before all the votes are counted.
This is what dictators do. They stop the count when they see
they are losing. Thankfully, our president does not have that
power. He is not a dictator and he is not above the law. Yet
he has repeatedly insisted that only “legal” ballots should be
counted. What is he talking about? If he has credible evidence
of illegality, or even of significant, widespread errors in
the counting, why hasn’t the White House produced the evidence?
If such evidence existed, they would be the first to
produce it. They haven’t, and that speaks volumes.
The campaign for president lasted well over a year. The
accurate counting of tens of millions of votes takes time. That
time is nearing its conclusion, and we owe an immense debt
of gratitude to the poll workers, election officials and ballot
processors across the country for their dedication and vigilance.
They are among democracy’s foot soldiers – our thin
red, white, and blue line – who are demonstrating the resilience
of our democracy.
mind on air. “Bull**** is the reason we give for living,” Beale
explains. “And if we can’t think up any reasons of our own,
we always have the God bull****.” The news director wants
to fire Howard Beale; Diane wants to make him a superstar.
Howard Beale gets his own prime time show, and his
nightly rants are a profit bonanza for UBS’s parent company
Communications Corporation of America (CCA).
Profanity, rage, sacrilege, despair … this is all acceptable to
the network execs. But then Howard Beale crosses the line
and tells the real truth. One night, Beale exposes the fact that
CCA is doing a multi-billion dollar business deal with Saudi
Arabia and he urges his viewers to stop it.
“Network” reaches a crescendo of brilliant fury when the
Chairman of UBS brings Howard Beale into his office.
“There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only
IBM and AT&T and DuPont, Dow, and Exxon. Those are the
nations of the world today … We no longer live in a world of
nations and ideologies, Mr. Beale. The world is a college of
corporations, inexorably determined by the immutable bylaws
of business.”
These words were true in 1976 and they are doubly true
today.
I love this movie. It’s a cinematic cauldron of excitement,
pitch-black comedy, and wisdom.
The final scene is perfect. “Network” forces us to ask ourselves
whether a corporation cares whether we live or die.
Yes, of course they do. Usually, they want you to live and
give them money.
Sometimes, they would prefer that you die.
live in a time where healthcare advancements are being made
every day, that resources are still relatively easy to come by
(often without having to leave the comfort of our homes), and
so on.
Many events have been cancelled this year in the interest of
health and safety, but Thanksgiving, as far as what it stands
for, cannot and will not be cancelled.

Health Officials Call on People Who Attended Certain Events
in Northern and Central Vermont to Get Tested
The Vermont Department of Health is urging anyone who
participated in certain events in northern and central Vermont
to get tested for COVID-19.
Health officials said contact tracers have been unsuccessful
at getting all the information they need about people who
attended two Halloween parties on October 31, one in
Marshfield and the other in Milton. People who attended
those parties should be tested for COVID-19. In addition,
members of the bowling leagues that played at Spare Time in
Colchester on November 4 and 5 should be tested. To find a
testing site, go to healthvermont.gov/covid19.
The Health Department reported 72 cases of COVID-19
on Wednesday, Nov. 11 and 109 cases the day after, the
highest number reported since the start of the pandemic.
Health Commissioner Mark Levine, MD said that because
case numbers are up, the risk to Vermonters is also significantly
higher. In a news release issued on Wednesday, state
officials said rising number of clusters and outbreaks often
trace back to Vermonters traveling out of state, and to social
gatherings like baby showers, Halloween parties, deer
camps and other small gatherings where masking and

The state’s ability to contain the spread of COVID-19
relies heavily on the cooperation of Vermonters who have
tested positive and their close contacts, said Dr. Levine. “But
when the contact tracing team is not getting the information it
needs, then people who may have been exposed to the virus
and don’t know it might be unintentionally transmitting it to
others. That’s how an outbreak starts,” Dr. Levine said.
Left unchecked, single cases lead to community spread,
which leads to outbreaks, illness, hospitalizations and deaths.
It’s essential that each person takes precautions to avoid exposure
and do everything they can to prevent the spread to others.
Dr. Levine urged anyone who gets a call from the Health
Department to please answer and provide all the information
requested. “We need everyone’s help to do our job. And that
job is to protect the health of all Vermonters.”
The best way to stay healthy and prevent the spread of virus
is to follow the core prevention actions: Masks on faces,
6-foot spaces, Uncrowded places.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Your ruling planet, Mars, allows
you to assume a sense of command
that can help you turn a chaotic
workplace situation into one that’s
orderly, productive and, yes, even friendly.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Getting a relationship
that’s been stuck in a rut up and running again depends on
how far you want to run with it. Be honest with yourself as
you consider which decision to make.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be wary of rumors that seem
to be coming from everywhere this week. Waiting for the
facts before you act means never having to say you’re sorry
you followed the wrong lead.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A difficult personal matter
might prompt you to turn to a trusted friend to help you
sort through a maze of emotional conflicts. The weekend
should bring some welcome news.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Some of the new people coming
into the Lion’s life could play pivotal roles in future
personal and professional matters. Meanwhile, an old
friend might have an important message.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A delay in getting
things moving on schedule can be a blessing in disguise.
Use this extra time to do more research so you can buttress
any of the weaker points with solid facts.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You might need to
get involved in a personal matter before it becomes a serious
problem. Also, be wary of someone offering to mediate,
unless you can be sure of his or her motives.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Taking sides in a
workplace or domestic dispute could prolong the problem.
Stay out and stay cool. Then you can be friends with both
parties when things settle down.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A friendship
has the potential to become something more, and with
this week’s aspects favoring romance, you might feel that
this possibility is worth exploring.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) The new job
you want might require you to relocate. If so, keep an open
mind and weigh all the positives and negatives before making
your decision.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A new relationship
seems to be everything you could have hoped for.
Congratulations. Meanwhile, it’s not too early to get some
feedback on that new project you’re working on.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You might have decided
to get out of the fast-moving current and just float
around hither and yon for a while. But you might find that
the new opportunity is too tempting to turn down.
BORN THIS WEEK: You believe in bringing out the best
in people with kind deeds, loving words and recognition of
their “special” selves.

NATURAL HEALTH CORNER | JOSHUA SINGER
Have you known any centenarians?
I mean anyone who’s lived
over 100 years. There have been
studies done in different places throughout
the world where centenarians are more
common in order to better understand
longevity. We all wonder if this is simply
good genes or if diet and exercise really
do have to do with it.
SOCIAL HEALTH IMPACTS OUR LONGEVITY
Accessibility to good medical care is surely a factor.
Though aside from medical care, diet and saunas, what I
found most interesting when reading about these studies was
around the common theme of social health. Maybe you’ve
read some more recent research, but I’m remembering what
stood out from published articles written several years ago.
The social piece has stuck with me and seems significant to
all of us, something we can focus on along with our cholesterol
levels and recorded daily steps.
Most centenarians are living with others, even if able to
be independent. This is often with family members. They
have remained active in their communities; some even being
treated with respect for what they’ve learned from their life
experience. I’ve found that the elders in our country are often
not viewed with admiration or with curiosity for what they
can share with us. I see social health defined as how we “fit”
within our community, how we interact with those around us.
HOW DO YOU FIT IN?
Consider how you feel within the social context around
you. First, do you feel safe? Do you feel a part of something
bigger than yourself? Something even beyond your family?
Do you feel respected and cared about by your neighbors? Do
you respect and care about your neighbors? What activities
do you participate in or are even part of creating? People who
live long lives are often involved with social activities on
a regular basis, engaged with their communities. They balance
their at-home life with joining the larger group around
them. I imagine we’re like pack animals rather than isolated
ones, most effective when part of the larger group. And this
truly influences our physical, emotional, and mental health.
Whether you’re an introverted or an extroverted individual
will influence how you find your social balance.
Along with the physical concerns of a current worldwide
pandemic, the social limitations that this brings may also be
observed in our health. This additionally seems relevant as
I’m writing this a few days after the recent national and local
government elections, amongst other current global issues
one may feel passionate about. It sure is a heightened time
of division amongst us, becoming more solid with some and
more separated from others because of our similarities and
differences. We have mixed emotions of frustration because
of those differences and deeper, maybe hidden, pain because
of the separation. Can we have the differences without the
separation?
BACK TO YIN AND YANG
My daily view, observing others in a medical setting,
comes from the historical perspective of Chinese Medicine.
The understanding of Yin and Yang is at the heart of that
perspective. You can probably envision the Yin/Yang symbol
as two halves of one circle, with a curved line separating the
black and white halves. There’s a dot of the opposite in each
half. One may see this as a symbol of social health in these
times.
We can remember that we human beings, who may be divided
at times in our values or opinions, are a group needing
to work together for the sake of ourselves and everything else
around us. Even when we feel differently, we can still relate
to each other (like the dot of the opposite within each half) as
fellow human beings. We can easily lose sight of the similarities
amidst the passionate differences.
STRONGER AS A WHOLE
Often, physical illness can build the immune system and
make one stronger to fight future illness. Haven’t you seen
this in your growing children or grandchildren? The same
must be true for one’s social health. How we each manage
this time of social challenge in the larger world around us
will have an impact on our future well-being. Wouldn’t it be
helpful to seek out guidance from our local centenarians and
elders, as their experience may give perspective and steer us
in the direction of good health?

Family Caregivers – Essential to Vermont’s
COVID-19 Crisis Response and Recovery
November is National Family Caregivers Month, an opportunity
to honor family caregivers as the backbone of our home
and community-based support system for Vermonters who are
aging or living with a disability. According to the National
Center on Caregiving, more than 40 million Americans,
including 64,000 Vermonters, provide care for a loved one
who has a disability, is chronically ill, or is aging, and spend
an average of 20 hours per week providing care.
Every day, family caregivers manage health emergencies,
juggle priorities, and suffer isolation – and all that was before
COVID-19. The pandemic has brought even more challenges
as family caregivers handle caregiving in crisis. Loss of economic
security, staying home to avoid health risks, navigating
telehealth appointments and reduced access to respite services
all increase stress on caregivers and can lead to negative
health outcomes or moving a loved one out of their home.
The Department of Disabilities, Aging and Independent
Living (DAIL) works to support older Vermonters and
Vermonters with disabilities through a comprehensive system
of long-term services and supports, including supports for
family caregivers. Our diverse community partners provide
information and referrals, caregiver education and training,
and targeted funds for respite. Our partners have quickly
adjusted services and programs during the pandemic; for
• • •
example, conducting support groups online or by phone,
changing services to address isolation, and offering extra
funding to families and caregivers where possible.
DAIL has compiled a handout of some Remote Caregiver
Support Options available in Vermont here.
As the COVID-19 crisis continues this winter, family caregiver
support must be a priority, and DAIL is seeking to learn
more about what caregivers need to remain resilient in their
ability to support loved ones at home. We have recently conducted
a survey of family caregivers of older Vermonters in
preparation for our next State Plan on Aging, results soon to
be posted at asd.vermont.gov, and we will use this information
to guide programs and services going forward. In addition,
we look to reports for insights, like Caregivers in Crisis:
Caregiving in the Time of COVID-19, released in October by
the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregiving, which details the
increased stress and burden experienced by family caregivers
nationwide and recommends increased supports such as
access to clinical counseling for caregivers.
If you or someone you know is a family caregiver of an
older Vermonter, call the Area Agencies on Aging Helpline at
1-800-642-5119 to find out about caregiver support in your
region. Other Vermonters should call 2-1-1.
I.O.U a Drink: 1 in 4 Vermonters
Admit to Having Used Borrowed
Money to Buy Alcohol
• Over 1 in 4 people admit to dipping into their savings to
buy alcohol.
• 18% say they purchase alcohol on store credit.
• Over 1 in 10 admit they would leave off items from their
grocery list to buy alcohol instead.
• 21% of Americans say they have used money borrowed
from loved ones to buy booze.
• More than a third would still lend money to their loved one,
even if they knew it was for alcohol.
It’s no secret that drinking alcohol is not a cheap habit to
maintain, especially during this period of economic uncertainty
following the pandemic in which many Americans are
struggling to make ends meet. However, with the added emotional
stress, many people across the country are drinking
more* during this time, even with limited income. Due to the
addictive nature of alcohol, abusing it can lead to serious
financial complications**, such as personal debt to family and
friends, credit card debt, inability to pay bills and decreased
job productivity.
National Alcohol Debt: AlcoholRehab.com, a leading provider
of alcohol and drug addiction treatment resources, conducted
a survey of 3,050 adults (aged 21+) to see how many
purchased alcohol with borrowed money. It was discovered
that over 1 in 4 (27%) Vermonters admit to having borrowed
money to buy alcohol (compared to a national average of
19%).
Ongoing drinking over a prolonged period of time can
cause severe economic strain as when an individual begins to
abuse alcohol, it can broaden the gap between anticipated
earnings and expenses, and actual earnings and expenses**.
People who drink can quickly spend their way through the
family budget, which could be especially problematic during
these financially challenging times.
Broken down across the country, alcohol purchases seem to
have emptied the wallets of drinkers in West Virginia the most
with nearly half (44%) of people admitting to buying alcohol
with borrowed money. Comparatively, 5% of Kansans say this
has been the case.
The economic complications brought on by the coronavirus
resulted in more than 40 million*** Americans having lost
their job since the start of the pandemic. Given this, many may
be struggling to make ends meet in terms of paying bills to run
their households. In fact, a survey**** found that 30% of
people with retirement savings admit to having dipped into
these accounts since the start of the pandemic, with more than
half using the money to cover expenses. More worryingly, the
survey revealed that over a quarter (28%) of people admit they
have dipped into their savings to buy alcohol.
Booze or Bread? More than 1 in 10 (12%) drinkers admit
they would leave off items from their grocery list to buy alcohol.
Additionally, nearly 1 in 5 (18%) admit to having purchased
alcohol on store credit. Alcohol abuse can have
extreme economic consequences including an increased risk
of credit card debt. Utilizing credit cards to buy alcohol could
affect a person’s credit score if they are unable to pay it back
on time.
Alcohol abuse typically causes the person to make drinking
a priority in their life, which can exacerbate financial issues
and disrupt close relationships. One in 5 (20%) drinkers admit
they have borrowed money from friends or family to buy
alcohol.
Perhaps of even more concern, the survey found that 37%
of people say they would still lend money to friends or family,
even if they knew it was for alcohol. Often, this enabling
behavior reduces the possibility of the person taking accountability
for their actions. Even if it is with good intent, loved
ones of people with problematic drinking should refrain from
enabling this unhealthy behavior.
“Unfortunately, during this economically stressful time,
many have turned to a number of unhealthy coping mechanisms,
including drinking,” said Tabitha Johnson, clinical
director at Desert Hope Treatment Center and spokesperson
for AlcoholRehab.com. “Purchasing alcohol is not a worrying
action, but if your financial capabilities do not allow for that
purchase, and extenuating efforts are made in order to procure
it, it may be time to reevaluate your relationship with alcohol.”

Dogfight
By Wayne F. Burke
I wonder at the great squawk
made by crows
flying the tree-tops
until the hawk
flies from shadow
chased by a crow, like
a bi-plane against a B-52,
hard to say who
is chasing whom, the
hawk moves in big arcs
the crow
a straighter path
in blue sky
silent
after the hawk
flies
off.
fade
By Wayne F. Burke
late September afternoon and
the sun fading
fast, only a husk
of what it was
a month ago;
an ambulance sings a siren
song, to the
rescue
but not of
the sinking sun, done
for, tepid
pale
dim-bulb
could not melt
wax, but
still good for
a sunset,
pink & red.

On The Loss Of A
Loved One
By Timothy R. Barre
Let not your heart be filled
with sorrow
Instead, tomorrow --
Let it be enlightened with
more
- A new and everlasting joy
forever-more.
Death is but a word --
Sorrow -- minor pain
-- We shall have much to
gain!
Happiness is constant
And forever brilliant
-- You may think and wonder,
Search and hide
But, will you ever
Find the true meaning
inside?
Life goes on --
Farther than anyone can
imagine upon --
It is eternal!
Be joyful!
Let your heart be troubled
For only a short time --
Remember Thee --
God, will be there with you
To meet you in your bind...
On The Creative
Experience
By Timothy R. Barre
The writing and sharing
Of one’s thoughts
Might be conceived –
Careful planning
Thus proceed...
The limelight of fame
– Not quite a game,
The same for another
As all the rest.
Slipping away
Deeper away
Into life in itself
Truly an acquisition
Not premonition
For all with knowledge
Thus, then unknown,
Becomes familiar
With thy own “back bone.”
Love Thy Neighbor
By Timothy R. Barre
It is through giving
That we receive.
It is when we are in receipt
Of one’s special gift
That we can give in return
The greatest gift of all
I could tell you many things
I could dream my many
dreams
I could fly with the birds in
the sky
I can not tell you any single
lie
The greatest gift that I could
give
To you as I stand and live
Is to love thy neighbor
As I would have them love
thyself
It is love that keeps happiness
alive
- Love that keeps creation
- Love without deviation
In this world of ours –
Sense of meaning and purpose
Comes alive
This is the love that stays
alive.

Because of COVID-19,
the need is greater.
This holiday season, The Salvation Army expects to see a
greater need for our services – more than any in recent history.
Unemployment rates are expected to be 10%-11%, and based
on the increased service we’ve already provided this year due
to COVID-19, we need resources to serve up to 155% more
people with Christmas assistance.
Because of COVID-19, we must start earlier.
COVID-19 has not only created a bigger need for us to fill, it
has also decreased the number of traditional red kettles you’re
used to seeing on street corners and at store entrances each
Christmas season. In fact, we could see up to a 50% decrease
in red kettle funds this year due to several factors, including:
-Consumers carrying less cash and fewer coins
-More online shopping, which means less foot traffic in shopping
areas
-Unemployment rates
-Recent closures of some brick-and-mortar retail stores
-Our work this holiday season is going to be even more crucial
to serve the most vulnerable – regardless of race, gender,
sexual orientation, ethnicity, or gender orientation – in your
community.

Holiday Flavors
Divinity
Divinity is a marshmallow-like vanilla confection that is a fluffy white
cloud of deliciousness. It’s often dotted with dried fruit or nuts,
usually pecans or walnuts. It originated in the early 1900s in the U.S.
and is popular in the South.
These treats are really sensitive to
humidity, which may also lead to
its popularity at Christmas, when
humidity tends to be lower in the
South. Higher humidity means the
candy won’t set properly and will
stay sticky and gooey. Properly
done, divinity should be soft and
dry to the touch.
Recipe is from Betty Crocker.
2 2/3 cups sugar
2/3 cup light corn syrup
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup coarsely chopped nuts
1. Cook sugar, corn syrup and water (if it’s humid, reduce water by a tablespoon) in a twoquart
saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved.
2. Continue to cook, without stirring, until the candy reaches 260 degrees on a candy thermometer
or until a small amount of mixture dropped into very cold water forms a hard ball
that holds its shape while remaining pliable.
3. Beat egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks
form. Continue beating while pouring hot syrup in a thin stream into the egg whites, beating
constantly on medium speed. For the best results, you’ll need an electric stand mixer and a
ceramic or glass bowl, not metal. Add the vanilla and continue to beat until it holds its shape
and becomes slightly dull. It may become too stiff for the mixer.
4. Gently fold in nuts, then drop from a buttered spoon onto wax paper or nonstick foil. Work
quickly; the candy starts to set up fast. Let stand at room temperature for at least 12 hours,
turning candies once, until they feel firm. Store in an airtight container.
Tip: For an added boost of flavor, lightly toast the nuts before adding them to the candy. If
folding in the nuts is too difficult, consider scooping the candy out and topping each piece
with a whole pecan or pressing chopped walnuts into the surface of the candy. Remember
that these candies will be extremely hot and sticky, and you need to work quickly but carefully
to avoid burns.
Pralines
Recipe is from the New Orleans School of
Cooking. It makes 25-50 pralines, depending
on size.
1 1/2 cup sugar
6 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cup pecans (roasted optional)
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon vanilla
1. Lay wax paper over a towel, newspaper or a baking sheet. You can also use nonstick foil or
parchment paper. Grease the paper with a thin layer of butter.
2. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly, bring
it to the soft ball stage, 238-240 degrees on a candy thermometer or when the candy forms a
soft ball when dropped into ice water.
3. Remove the candy from the heat and keep stirring until the mixture thickens and turns
creamy and cloudy. The pecans should be suspended in the mixture.
4. Spoon the candies out onto the buttered paper. Work quickly; the candy sets up fast. Let
the candies cool and store in an airtight container.
Tip: To roast your pecans, bake them on a sheet pan in a single layer at 275 degrees for 20-25
minutes. The nuts should be slightly browned and fragrant.
Fudge
Even though fudge is usually chocolate, it can take on many
flavors, including brown sugar, peanut butter and vanilla. It
can also be enhanced with fruits, nuts and other flavors after
the candy is made but before It sets. Fudge shouldn’t be hard
and never crackly or crisp. Also, when you’re cooking, resist
the urge to scrape the sides of the pot into your candy mixture.
This can interfere with the proper crystallization of the
candy. It could not set up properly or be too brittle and hard.
Recipe is from Kraft. Makes about 40 servings.
3 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter or margarine
1 5-ounce can evaporated milk, or about 2/3 cup
3 4-ounce packages semi-sweet baker’s chocolate, chopped,
or 12 ounces chocolate chips
1 7-ounce jar marshmallow creme
1 cup nuts, optional
1 teaspoon vanilla

1. Line a 9-inch square pan with foil. Leave the ends extending over the sides.
2. In a three-quart saucepan over medium heat, add the sugar, butter and evaporated milk. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring
constantly. Cook for four minutes, or until a candy thermometer reaches 234 degrees, stirring constantly.
3. Remove from heat and add the chocolate and marshmallow creme. Stir until melted, then add the nuts or other add-ins and
vanilla, and mix well.
4. Pour into prepared pan and spread to cover. Cool completely. Use the foil handles to remove the fudge easily, then cut into
1-inch squares.
M 8:00 - 6:00, Tu 8:00 - 6:00
Tip: Interesting flavor combinations to try include white chocolate with peppermint extract, dark W chocolate 8:00 - 6:00, with Th 8:00 orange - 6:00 extract
and zest, and milk chocolate with mint extract. Caramel and cappuccino chips, if you can find F 8:00 them, - 6:00, also Sat work 8:00 great. - 2:00Be
careful when adding liquor or any other liquids; you don’t want to upset the delicate balance of the candy.

HOLIDAY FLAVORS | THE WORLD
Give Thanks This Season
With Vermont Specialty
Foods And Beverages
A time to give thanks and celebrate with family and friends,
Thanksgiving in Vermont puts locally sourced foods as a focal point
in our festivities. Vermonters are extremely lucky to have an array of
options from locally grown vegetables to farmstead cheese, and all
the delicious ingredients and treats you can imagine.
Scents of the Season
The long, dark days of winter are the perfect time to break out the
warm glow of candles. Keep reading for what scents to burn this
year and how to keep yourself safe while staying cozy.
O, CHRISTMAS TREE
Christmas-tree scented candles are always
popular this time of year. Magnify your
real tree with festive scents from Yankee
Candle (look for Balsam & Cedar), Williams
Sonoma’s Winter Forest, Threshold’s Frasier
Fur and Bath & Body Works’ Fresh Balsam.
HARD CANDY CHRISTMAS
Make your home smell sweet without
any of the work with these delicious smelling
candles. If you love the warm scent of
roasting nuts, go for Bee & Willow Home’s
Pistachio and Praline candle. Also look for
Yankee Candle’s Floral Candy and Christmas
Eve.
JUST DESSERTS
If candy isn’t your thing, there’s a ton of
toasty scents that’ll have your house smelling
like your favorite bakery in no time. Look for
White Barn’s Paris Café, with rich roasted
coffee scents mixed with sugared brioche and
vanilla. Also consider WoodWick candles’
Oatmeal Cookie, Pumpkin Butter, and the
Café Sweets Trilogy candle with vanilla, caramel
and biscotti scents. WoodWick candles
feature a special wick that pops and crackles
as it burns, making for a cozy, homey feel.
page 16 The WORLD November 18, 2020
WAX WARMERS
If you’re not a fan of open flame, you can
buy wax warmers in your local home store
and wax chunks in your favorite scents from
most major candlemakers. Just be aware that
you’re trading the danger of an open flame
for the danger of hot, melted wax. Both
things should be kept on stable surfaces and
out of the reach of children and pets.
CANDLE SAFETY
• Keep candles at least 12 inches from anything
flammable.
• Blow out all the candles when you leave
the room or go to bed. Avoid using candles in
the bedroom and in other places were people
may fall asleep.
• Use sturdy candle holders that won’t tip
over easily.
• Put candle holders on a sturdy, uncluttered
surface.
• Don’t burn a candle all the way down. Put
it out before it gets too close to the holder or
the container.
• Never use a candle if there’s oxygen in the
home.
• Don’t use candles during a power outage.

CHRISTMAS GREENERY | THE WORLD
Christmas Tree Tips And Tricks
Christmas trees are an iconic symbol
of the holiday season. Whether they are
personal trees nestled in the corner of
a living room for families to enjoy or
towering evergreens serving as the focal
point of a town square, Christmas trees
are a wonder to behold.
Many people have fond memories of time spent around
the Christmas tree sharing gifts and family traditions. Live
trees and their pine-like aroma can be especially nostalgic
trees to include in holiday plans. The National Christmas
Tree Association says that approximately 25 to 30 million
real Christmas trees are sold in the United States every year.
North American trees hail from all 50 states and areas of
Canada.
While freshly cut trees can be particularly beautiful and
aromatic additions to the season, they require a bit more
work than artificial trees in order to remain beautiful and
thrive throughout the holiday season. Maintenance can help
keep Christmas trees as perfect as possible.
• Even though it is tempting to buy a real tree as early as possible,
their shelf life is limited even with the best care. Dural
Christmas Tree Farm advises that, under the best conditions,
a real tree should last up to four weeks before drying out.
• Consider the needles when looking for a real tree. Pull your
hand toward your body along the branches. If many needles
fall off, the tree is past its peak.
• Think about the room in which the tree will be located.
Leave at least 6 inches between the tip of the tree and the
ceiling, accounting for the height of the tree stand as well.
• If needle retention is a goal, the Scotch pine variety has the
best needle retention and a high survival rate, lending to its
popularity, offers Precision Tree and Landscape. Douglas fir
and balsam fir are other durable trees.
• If possible, buy a freshly cut tree from a reputable nursery
or tree farm, advises The Old Farmer’s Almanac. Many precut
trees sold elsewhere were likely cut weeks before and
may not be fresh.
• Cut the bottom of the tree trunk before bringing it home to
facilitate the uptake of fresh water daily. Trees can absorb as
much as a gallon of water in a day, so make sure the tree gets
fresh water every day.
• Keep trees away from as many heat sources as possible and
away from direct sunlight to prolong longevity.
• According to Karabin Farms in Connecticut, to make a
Christmas tree last longer, boil a gallon of water and then
dissolve one cup of sugar in the water. Allow to cool. After
freshly cutting the trunk, pour in the warm sugar water.
Continue to add fresh, cool, plain water to the tree stand
afterward.
Once needles begin to fall off with frequency, the tree is
reaching its prime. Remove it so it does not become a fire
hazard.

HOLIDAY MEMORIES | THE WORLD
Making Memories
This holiday season, get little hands involved in making their own
ornaments for the tree using an old favorite recipe, salt dough.
MAKING SALT DOUGH
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup salt
1 cup cold water
Mix the flour and salt in a bowl and
slowly add water a few tablespoons at a
time until the dough is smooth and easy to
handle. Knead the dough for 10 minutes
and let rest for 20 minutes. Form the dough
into the desired shapes and bake for 2 hours
at 250 degrees. Allow to cool completely
before handling. Don’t forget to poke a hole
to string the ornaments for hanging.
WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR SALT
DOUGH
Doughnuts: Cut circles using a shot glass
or other tiny circle, then cut out the middle.
Adorn with teeny salt dough sprinkles. Bake
and paint your favorite delicious colors.
Christmas trees: Cover your tree with
tiny trees using no more than a tree-shaped
cookie cutter, some paint and some imagination.
Use bits of mosaic glass for extra bling.
Handprints: With a little imagination, tiny
handprints can become Santa (think of the
thumb as the trail of his hat) or a troll doll

(have the fingers be the wild hair). Or keep
it simple with a mitten and pressing a bitty
hand into it. Trim with faux fur.
Monogram it: Use cookie cutters to make
salt dough into your family’s initials.
Stars: Shine bright with a simple star.
Make it your own by cutting out the center,
using ombre paint, or using a simple dipped
paint. Or all three. Go big or go home.
Gingerbread everywhere: Make legions
of gingerbread men and women march all
around your holiday decorations. For a neat
garlanded look, punch two holes in the chest
to run twine through.
Your own twist: Make two thin rolls of
dough and twist them into candy canes. Or
three and braid it. Instead of using a hole,
wrap a ribbon around the crook to hang it.
MAKE IT SHINE
If the matte look of plain salt dough isn’t
your thing, you can glitter it up and cover
with a shiny decoupage glue.
After paint and before decoupage is also
when you want to add any embellishments
to your design, like sequins, microbeads and
metallics.
Making
Peppermints
There are few things more jolly and Christmas-y
than a bundle of tasty peppermint candies. In more
recent years, it seems like every flavor has shown
up in the shape of a candy cane.
Do we really need dill pickle candy canes?
This recipe brings you back to the holidays of yore. It’s not colored, either, so it’s up to you
to pick the colors for your minty candy treats. Peppermint candies and lollies can soothe a
sore throat and tame a winter’s cold. And they’re just tasty.
Remember to be very careful with this mound of minty molten sugar. Candy this hot can
cause severe burns.
PEPPERMINT HARD CANDY
Recipe is from Taste of Home.
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1-1 1/2 teaspoons peppermint extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6-8 drops of food coloring, optional
1. Line a 13x9 pan with foil. Grease the foil with a tablespoon of butter and set aside.
2. In a large, heavy saucepan, combine sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium
heat, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook for three minutes to dissolve the sugar crystals.
3. Uncover and cook over medium-high heat, without stirring, until a candy thermometer hits
300 degrees. You can also drop a small amount of the candy into ice water. If it’s ready, it’ll
form a brittle thread and you may also hear a cracking sound.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the peppermint extract and food coloring. You can divide the
candy into batches and color each one differently, swirling them in the pan, or you can pour
the candy into silicone molds. Just remember to hold your head back away from the pot when
you add the extract; the smell can be pretty strong.
5. Break the candy into pieces or unmold it. Store in airtight containers.
Tip: Dip stirring sticks into the candy and allow to dry on wax paper. Gift a bundle of the
sticks to stir into a throat-soothing cup of tea. You can also use this recipe in your lollipop
molds for a twist on the traditional recipe.
Pralines
The difference between brittle and pralines is a subtle one, but it comes down to two things:
the lower cooking temperature and the addition of cream or milk to the recipe.
Pralines can refer to many different kinds of candies. In Belgium, it’s a chocolate candy with
a soft filling. In France, it’s a harder candy made with almonds. But here in the U.S., a praline
is a creamy cross between brittle and fudge.
French settlers brought their praline recipe to Louisiana in the 19th century. Cooks, usually
free Black women, skipped the almond in favor of the more plentiful pecan. The women sold
the candies on the street as a way to make extra money. Food historians say pralinieres would
walk up and down the streets, singing songs about their homemade candy to bring in customers.
In some parts of the Bayou State, the name praline is dropped altogether for pecan candy.

Vermont State Dance Festival Adapts to Changing Times
By: Rebecca McGregor
Lyndon Institute Dance Instructor
VT State Dance Festival Founder and
Coordinator
This year the Vermont State Dance Festival
entered its 18th year of dance workshops and
performances not knowing how a pandemic
would impact the world of education and performance.
However, as every artist knows, flexibility and
creativity are the keys to success and forward
momentum!
In an effort to adapt, the festival unveiled a
new addition – a student choreographer’s scholarship
opportunity. This year Vermont dance
students could submit choreography they created
and performed for adjudication by higher
education dance instructors for a financial
reward which they can put toward their future
dance endeavors. The first recipient is senior
Amanda Bissonnette from North Country Union
High School. Amanda submitted a choreography
titled “Control.” The choreography was full
of dynamic and chaotic movements met by stillness, representing
both the sense of loss of control, as well as the essence
of regaining it out of necessity. Her intent was to depict the
need to stay in control and move forward during a time in
which so much is out of our control.
The festival is offering another adaptation: Zoom dance
workshops on the festival date, Saturday, November 21st.
This year two dance educators, Cydney Spohn and Joan
Wiegers, will provide online dance sessions for teenage dancers
at a minimal charge in contemporary dance choreography,
barre fitness, and career and employment opportunities in
dance.
Cydney Spohn (M.A.) is an educator, freelance artist, and
consultant for dancers and organizations. After a twenty-year
tenure as a professor of dance at The University of Akron
where she mentored and advised students with diverse backgrounds
and interests, Cydney founded Solutions In Motion to
Gobble Wobble Turkey Trot to Continue Live
The Gobble Wobble Turkey Trot, a family-friendly 5K race
to raise money for programs in the community, will continue,
with COVID-19 precautions for its 18th year on Thanksgiving
Day, November 26, from 8-10 a.m.
The Gobble Wobble Turkey Trot, a pre-dinner Thanksgiving
tradition for Central Vermont families, will take place this
year in Barre. Registration including the sale of commemorative
running shirts will be available online starting November
1. The deadline to order a shirt with a registration this year
was November 12. Runners must register ahead of time, to be
placed into socially-distanced groups with staggered start
times to ensure their safety. The final deadline for registration
is November 20th. The route begins and ends at the Barre
Town School. As usual, families with strollers and dogs on
leashes are welcomed. Costumes are encouraged. All participants
will be masked until they reach the starting line, and
from the end of their run back to their vehicles. Winners in

help dancers of all ages take their next steps and
prepare high school students for college readiness,
acceptance, and career success. Cydney
danced professionally with North Carolina
Dance Theatre and as a soloist with The
Pennsylvania Ballet. Her repertoire included
lead roles in Swan Lake, Cinderella, George
Balanchine’s The Nutcracker, Serenade, Agon,
Square Dance, and La Sonnambula, along with
works by Joe Goode, Lar Lubovitch, Doug
Varone, Paul Taylor, and Lynne Taylor-Corbett.
As a recipient of an Emerging Choreographer
Fellowship from the Pennsylvania Council on
the Arts and two Princess Grace Foundation-
USA awards, Cydney has been recognized for
her creative and performing career on national
levels. A high school graduate of the University
of North Carolina School of the Arts, Cydney
later earned both a B.S. in Economics (graduating
summa cum laude) and an M.A. in Education
from The University of Akron. Service contributions
include seats on the board of directors
of CORPS de Ballet International and the board
of advisors of the Thomas S. Kenan Institute for the Arts. Her
research has been presented at professional conferences and
published in the scholarly journal’s Research in Dance
Education and Arts Education Policy Review.
Joan M Wiegers (MFA, MA, Barre Certification) is the
creator and original Director of Plymouth State University
dance program is a master teacher/choreographer in New
England and beyond. Joan currently teaches 10-12 online
classes each week to all levels and ages. She teaches students
from New England to Asia and focuses on contemporary
dance at the Russian Academy of Dance in Newmarket,
Dance Inspirations in Concord, The Mill #3 in Ashland, and
The Farmstand in Holderness.

each of the categories will be announced on Facebook later in
the day.
Shirts will be available for purchase as part of the online
registration and donations will be accepted from runners.
Corporate sponsors are being featured free of charge this year
in thanks for their years of support. All funds raised from this
event support community mission work by the Barre
Congregational Church, including the Laundry Love program
that helps low-income families with washing, as well as
resources for those in long-term care facilities, holiday
resources and food assistance to unhoused community members.
Barre Congregational Church is an open and affirming
congregation of the United Church of Christ.

Smoke a Turkey this Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving hosts who want to smoke their turkeys outdoors
this year are urged to take a few trial runs and watch
some online tutorials before trying their hand at smoking.
Smoking relies heavily on controlling temperatures, which
can fluctuate dramatically and quickly inside a smoker. As a
result, smoking a turkey may require simple but frequent
adjustments to dampers so the temperature inside can remain
steady at around 225 F. Hosts who suspect they will be busy
hosting or preparing side dishes on Thanksgiving may want to
cook their turkeys in more traditional ways, such as baking
the bird in the oven. Those who can devote the time to controlling
the temperature on their smokers also should know
that the turkey will take much longer to cook in a smoker than
in an oven. According to the online grilling resource
Heygrillhey.com, cooks should plan to smoke their turkeys at
225 F for approximately 30 minutes per pound. That means
smoking a 15-pound turkey will require at least 7.5 hours
cooking time. That’s a significant factor to consider for people
who want to host Thanksgiving dinner outdoors this year. In
order to avoid serving smoked turkey after the sun has gone
down and temperatures have dipped, Thanksgiving hosts may
need to wake up especially early and fire up their smokers
around the break of dawn if not earlier.
“Vermont’s Largest
All-Santa Race!” Will
Now Be “Vermont’s
Largest Virtual
All-Santa Race”!
Due to the pandemic and the cancelation of all live public
events, the 2020 Ri Ra Santa 5K will be held as a virtual
event. This is a great way to safely celebrate the holiday with
family or friends while practicing social distancing.
The Ri Ra Virtual Santa event has two race distance
options, a 5K and a 10K. All participants will receive a Santa
Suit, their choice of one of three finisher medals, a Clif gift
pack and a face mask. New this year we have an Elf Mile that
can be fun for the whole family. All elf mile participants will
receive an elf hat. The Elf Mile race is priced at only $15 with
$5 going directly to the Vermont Foodbank. Both the Santa
race and the Elf Mile can be completed anytime up until
December 31st 2020.
The Ri Ra Virtual Santa 5K race headquarters will be at Ri
Ra Irish Pub and Restaurant located at 123 Church Street.
There will be scheduled race kit pick-ups at the restaurant.
Dates and times for race kit pickup will be announced in the
coming weeks.
The 2020 Ri Ra Virtual Santa 5K supports the Vermont
Foodbank and Camp Ta-Kum-Ta.
We are proud to announce that we have partnered with the
Vermont Foodbank to help give food and hope to kids, families,
and older adults struggling with hunger in Vermont.
“This pandemic is creating a food assistance emergency
unlike anything we’ve ever seen since we opened our doors
more than 30 years ago”, says Vermont Foodbank CEO, John
Sayles. “We’ve seen a huge increase in the number of people
in need of food assistance, and it is clear that the [Vermont]
Foodbank and our statewide network of food shelves and
meal sites will not be able to meet that need on our own. This
is why we are so grateful to have supporters like Ri Ra and the
amazing network of athletes participating in this year’s Ri Ra
Virtual Santa 5K. This support fuels our work!”
We are happy to share that we have also partnered with
Camp Ta-Kum-Ta for another year. Since 1984, Camp
Ta-Kum-Ta has provided a safe loving place where children
from Vermont and New York who have, or have had cancer
can play, swim, share, and heal. Camp Ta-Kum-Ta’s new
home in South Hero, Vermont will enable our children and
their families to grow in ways never thought possible. Over
the past 9 years, VR Pro has raised over $120,000 for Camp
Ta-Kum-Ta through our great working relationship.

Downgrading Cat’s Fresh
Food Diet
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I was furloughed from my job
in April and have been getting by on
savings and an unemployment
check. With no new job yet, I need to
drastically cut back expenses to get
through this winter. My cat “Silk” is
9 years old and eats a special diet of
prescription canned food plus fresh
pet food from the grocery. Will she
stay healthy if I temporarily replace her diet with a commercial
cat food? -- Henry in Worcester, Massachusetts
DEAR HENRY: Thank you for putting Silk first in your
household budget, especially in these tough times! Give
your cat’s veterinarian a call and discuss the situation.
Would a four- to six-month break from prescription canned
food be OK, and not threaten Silk’s health? The answer
depends on the condition for which she’s eating special
food.
You can probably stop buying those prepackaged fresh pet
foods for your cat, at least until you get financially back on
track. Instead, prepare a few days’ worth of fresh cat food
at home by steaming rice, peas and a protein like chicken
or tuna until fully cooked (do not add spices or salt) and
smashing together. Cool and store in the refrigerator.
Fresh food needs to be supplemented with a formulated cat
food so that Silk gets key nutrients during this time. The
veterinarian should be able to recommend an off-the-shelf
cat food, either dry or canned, that will meet her needs for
a few months. If she is taking medications as well, don’t
skimp on her medicines, and be sure to include them in
your budgeting.
Send your tips, comments or questions to ask@pawscorner.com.
PET OF THE WEEK
Meet Bugs Bunny! A young bunny who
came to CVHS when there were too many in
the living situation. Bugs Bunny and his rabbit
friends are familiar with other rabbits, with
indoor/outdoor exposure, and are familiar
with passing dogs and felines. The foster
home has older children who have been
helping to care for these rabbits as well, so
they've had a lot of good handling. Can you
add a little "hop" into your life?

Hunters Reminded of COVID-19
Safety Measures for Deer Season
Vermont’s regular deer season started
Saturday, November 14 and runs through
November 29. Vermont hunters are being
urged to keep COVID-19 safety measures in
mind and use the Department of Fish &
Wildlife’s online reporting system to report
their deer.
“As virus rates continue to increase both in
Vermont and regionally, it is important that
hunters follow all of the Vermont Department
of Health COVID-19 safety precautions
including wearing a mask, keeping six feet of
distance, and avoiding crowds,” said
Secretary of Natural Resources Julie Moore.
If a person living in Vermont chooses to
leave the state to hunt or spend time at an outof-state
deer camp, they must follow the
State’s travel policy by completing a quarantine
before returning to work, school or
attending public events. The Department of
Fish & Wildlife is also reaching out to individuals
who have purchased nonresident
licenses to provide them with information on
the State’s current travel policy.
The Vermont Department of Health is
actively discouraging even small social gatherings,
including getting together with friends
or extended family during hunting season at
deer camp. “Deer camps worry me if people
beyond immediate family members are gathering
to spend time together indoors or overnight,”
said Commissioner of Health Mark
Levine, MD. “People cannot know for sure
whether someone they are with or near has
been infected, especially those who are presymptomatic.”
“Deer camp is a strong and important tradition
for Vermonters,” said Moore. “But given
the rising numbers of new COVID-19 cases
in Vermont and regionally, it is critical for
hunters to hunt local this year, reduce visits to

stores and other businesses, and take special
cautionary steps if considering going to a deer
camp.”
Vermonters who choose to spend time at
deer camp with people outside their immediate
family are encouraged to get a COVID-19
test now, as well as seven days after returning
from camp, and avoid close contact with others
until test results are received. To see
options for testing near you, please go to
healthvermont.gov/covid-19/testing. Call
your health care provider if you develop
symptoms.
While activities like heading to camp or
gathering at check stations are often considered
an integral component of the hunting
season, extended physical or close contact
increases the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
Mark Scott, Director of Wildlife, asked for
people not to gather at big game checking
stations this deer season for their own safety
as well as others. “It is a great Vermont tradition
to hang out at a local check station to see
what hunters bring in and chat with community
members,” says Scott. “For everyone’s
safety, please avoid doing that this year.”
Building on the success in reporting turkeys
this spring using an online tool, the
Department of Fish & Wildlife will be reactivating
the online reporting system for hunters
to report their deer. “We are now offering
hunters an online reporting option for deer as
well as regular reporting at regional stations,”
said Scott. Hunters can go to the Vermont
Fish and Wildlife website for the link to the
reporting system.
Additional recommendations for protecting
the health of yourself and loved ones are
available on the Health Department website:
healthvermont.gov/covid-19/protect-yourself-others.
At least one automotive manufacturer has
taken a cue from NASA and offers drivers
what they believe to be the ultimate in passenger
comfort — zero gravity seats. These
seats, available on various Nissan vehicles,
are designed to maximize comfort while
reducing fatigue. In space there is no gravity
force, so people can assume a relaxed posture
that is comfortable and minimizes stress on
the body. The zero gravity seats mimic that by
trying to create a neutral posture position.
These specially designed seats offer continuous
support for the hips, pelvis, chest, and
back. The cushions also flex in response to
unique pressure points on the body. People
who frequently take long car rides or find
their body feels tired after sitting in the car for
long stretches of time may benefit from zero
gravity car seat technology. These seats
became a new feature in 2015 on various
Nissan models. Other vehicle manufacturers
also may have seats that offer similar support
systems.

COVID-19 ALERT
Infections are rapidly increasing
in Central Vermont
SAFETY IS OUR TOP PRIORITY
CVMC has systems and protocols to assure that our patients, Woodridge residents, and
staff are safe during a surge in cases.
Most recently, we have:
Restricted visitation to our facilities.
Doubled the number of Covid-19 tests CVMC is offering.
Weatherized the drive-through clinic where the majority of our Covid testing takes
place, allowing us to tackle the pandemic throughout the winter.
As always, we continue to screen all staff, patients, and visitors for signs and symptoms of
Covid-19, and require patients and staff to wear masks.
PREVENT THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 THIS HOLIDAY SEASON:
As the holidays approach, family traditions that involve travel, gatherings, and celebrations
become more common. This year, we encourage everyone to consider modifying those
traditions to be Covid-safe.
DISTANCE YOURSELF FROM OTHERS
Stay home and observe state restrictions on social gatherings and travel. Stay at least
six feet apart from people you do not live with.
WEAR A MASK
When you’re in public, indoors with people you don’t live with or outside when you
cannot always keep six feet apart.
WASH YOUR HANDS FREQUENTLY
Use soap and hot water, or alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
WE’RE HERE WHEN YOU NEED US:
IF YOU HAVE FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS: Stay home and contact the CVMC Covid-19
Hotline at 802-371-5310 to determine if a test is needed (Mon-Fri from 8 am-5 pm and
Sat/Sun from 8 am-1 pm).
SEEK EMERGENCY CARE WHEN YOU NEED TO: CVMC’s ExpressCare and Emergency
Department are open and ready to safely take care of you – no appointment required.
DON’T DELAY CARE: The providers you know and trust are here to deliver the same
high-quality care you expect, safely and conveniently, through video, telephone, and
in-person visits.
