Supporting Local Businesses Has Never Been More Important

Supporting Local Businesses Has Never Been More Important

Shopping locally is now

more crucial than ever

The importance of shopping locally has

been emphasized with increasing urgency

in recent years. Events like Small Business

Saturday and Plaid Friday have brought

some much-needed attention to the importance

of shopping local, which is even more

crucial now as so many small businesses try

to survive the pandemic.

A poll from the trade group the National

Federation of Independent Business reported

that about half of all the businesses in the

survey reported a 25 percent drop in sales

since the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus,

and roughly one in five businesses have

seen sales decline by more than 50 percent.

If the economic climate does not radically

improve, 20 percent of small businesses

won’t survive.

According to NBC News, small businesses

employ 60 million people in the

United States, almost half of the nation’s

private-sector employees. In addition, small

businesses generate tax revenues that help

communities by funding schools, maintaining

parks and contributing to public safety

programs. However, based on research from

the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, even

before COVID-19 spread across the world,

only 20 percent of healthy small businesses

had sufficient cash reserves to continue to

operate if they experienced a revenue loss

for two months. Some have been shuttered

for much longer.

Individuals looking for everything from

clothing to home improvement services to

office supplies can look to small businesses

to fill those needs.

• Look for small businesses for any and all

of your shopping needs. Chances are items

sold by big box retailers also are sold by

small businesses. When the options are the

same or similar, purchase from a small business

instead of its big box competitor.

• Readily provide recommendations of

small businesses with which you have done

business. Too often people are quick to complain

about places that have failed them, but

those same people don’t think to say kind

words about companies that went above and

beyond. Share great experiences on social

media or through word of mouth.

Talk to small businesses owners first

if you have an issue. It’s tempting to go

directly to social media to complain about

something, but such complaints can have

a dire impact. Always take issues to the

manager or business owner first to see if a

resolution can be reached. A manager may

not be aware of an issue at all. Give small

businesses a chance to make it right before

taking things public.

• If you own a small business, rely on

other small businesses to fulfill your needs.

Order supplies from fellow small business

owners, seek the help of local financial

advisors and tax professionals and use local

suppliers and delivery personnel.

Small businesses have experienced unprecedented

setbacks due to COVID-19. By

supporting small businesses, communities

can help them regain stable footing.

A Return to Community

By Dan Groberg, Executive Director - Montpelier Alive

The sun is shining again in Montpelier! As

vaccination rates rise and COVID counts fall

in turn, we can begin to look forward to a

summer together again in community. After

months apart, we can’t wait to come together

and enjoy an incredible lineup of fun events.

Here’s some of what you can expect in the

months to come:

Montpelier Alive’s Art Walk, supported by

orthfield Savings Bank, will take place on

June 4th, August 6th, and October 1st. Art

Walk provides a fun and casual way to experience

art, meet local artists, and explore downtown

Montpelier shops, restaurants and galleries.

You can pick up an Art Walk guidebook

and begin your walk at any of the presenting

venues (look for the Art Walk balloons!). June’s

Art Walk will feature 19 venues, a COVID-era

high, including two new venues. The event

features a variety of art, ranging from vinyl art

by Matt Denton on display on Rebel Heart to

pandemic inspired collage by Sally Smith on

display at umping aindrops. Several venues

will reopen to the public for the first time since

the pandemic began. The walk begins on Friday,

June 4, and viewing times vary by venue.

For more information, visit www.montpelieralive.org/artwalk.

June and July bring two opportunities to celebrate

the incredible diversity of our community

On Saturday, June 19th, 5-8pm, there

will be a commemoration of Juneteenth with

a celebratory evening on the State House

Lawn. he celebration and reections will be

focused on the word ‘Liberation’ as organizers

share Black History in ermont and make

space to discuss the continued impacts of

systemic racism in our state. This community

event will include food available for pre-order

from Black businesses and home cooks and a

slate of speakers and performers from across

the state. On Saturday, July 3rd from 5-8pm

on the State House Lawn, Shidaa Cultural Ed

ucation and Echange will host an evening of

music and dance celebrating community and

diversity. Enoy an array of performances and

delicious food from local vendors.

August and September bring events for the

whole family!

On six Thursdays at noon starting Thursday,

Fires are Prohibited at Fishing Access Areas

With the beginning of

summer upon us and the

increase in shore fishing, the

Vermont Fish and Wildlife

Department reminds people

that open fires are prohibited

at all Vermont fishing access

areas and state wildlife management

lands.

Open fires and their remnants,

create unsafe areas for

other anglers and boaters to

use and enjoy. The remnants

of these fires are also

unhealthy for the animals and

fish that live in the adjacent

waters. Fish and Wildlife

cleans up the toxic waste left

by open fires on state lands

annually at considerable

expense.

“Vermont State Game

Wardens will be strictly

enforcing the open fires and

camping rules at state fishing

access areas this summer,”

said Lt. Keith Gallant.

FINANCIAL FOCUS

Don’t let investments go on vacation

• • •

Now that we’ve gained

at least some space

from the COVID-19 pandemic,

summer travel is

heating up. But while you

might be eager to hit the

road, you won’t want your

investments to take a vacation

– you need them to work hard for you

consistently. But how can you make this happen?

Here are some ideas:

• Know your destination. “If you don’t

know where you want to go, then it doesn’t

matter which path you take.” This bit of wisdom,

paraphrased from the classic children’s

book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,

may be appropriate for, say, hikers exploring

a new landscape. But as an investor, it matters

a great deal which path you take. If you

only dabble in investing, occasionally putting

some money into one investment or another,

it will be difficult to build a portfolio thats

consistently working in your best interest.

It’s important to create a long-term investment

strategy based on where you want to go

in life – that is, how long you plan to work,

what sort of retirement lifestyle you envision,

and so on.

• Match goals with investments. Some

investments are designed to achieve certain

goals. To illustrate: When you contribute to

an IRA and a 401(k) or similar employersponsored

plan, you’re investing for one

specific, longterm goal a comfortable retire

ment. While you can tap into these accounts

for other purposes – though doing so might

incur immediate taxes and penalties – they

are designed to provide you with income during

your retirement years. Similarly, you may

have other investments for other purposes,

such as a 529 education savings plan. Here’s

the key point: Goals-based investing, by its

nature, can help ensure your portfolio is always

working on your behalf, in the way you

intended.

• Invest for growth. Ideally, hard work produces

results, and one of the main results you

want from your investments is growth – that

is, you want your investments to appreciate

in value so they can eventually help you meet

your goals. But if you are overconcentrated in

vehicles such as certificates of deposit Cs

and government securities, you may end up

lowering your growth potential. That’s not to

say that CDs and Treasury bills are in some

sense “lazy.” They can provide you with

income and help you reduce the impact of

market volatility on your portfolio. But to

achieve most of your goals, you’ll need a reasonable

number of growth-oriented investments

working for you, with the exact percentage

based on your needs and life stages.

• Check your progress. How else can you

ensure your investments aren’t just taking it

easy? By checking up on them. If you follow

a buy-and-hold strategy, your portfolio

shouldn’t require many changes if it already

reflects your goals, risk tolerance and time

horizon. Too much buying and selling could

jeopardize your ability to follow a consistent,

long-term strategy. However, “buy and hold”

doesn’t mean “buy and forget.” By reviewing

your portfolio at least once a year, you can

determine if your investments are performing

as they should. If they’re not working for you

as you’d like, you may need to make some

changes.

If you’re traveling this summer, relax and

enjoy yourself – but keep those investments

working hard.

Meet Amy and Kat, CVHHH Clients

and Spring Appeal Honorary Chairs

Central Vermont Home Health & Hospice

(CVHHH) is pleased to introduce Amy Lee

and her five-year-old daughter Kat to the

community as Honorary Chairs of its Spring

Appeal. Kat has been a client of CVHHH’s

Maternal-Child Health team since she was a

newborn. As Amy wrote in her appeal letter to

Central Vermonters, “Kat and I have been on

a very special journey together, and CVHHH

has been by our side the entire time.”

When Amy was 24 weeks pregnant with

Kat, her second child, doctors diagnosed Kat

with a rare heart condition. Doctors told Amy

that Kat would very likely not survive birth.

Five years later, Kat is an active preschooler

and receives regular medical nursing assessment

visits, care coordination with community

providers, case management, and medication

management support at home from

CVHHH’s Maternal-Child Health team. Kat

also receives music and dance therapy, which

helps her express her emotions in a creative

and fun way. Amy says that CVHHH’s nurses

have been an invaluable support system and

sounding board for her. “The nurses have

been amazing at staying in touch with me and

checking in. Even though they are coming for

Kat, the nurses always ask how I am doing.

It’s been nice to have people to talk to.”

Funding Available for Mental Health

and Suicide Prevention Care

The Vermont Community Foundation is

seeking proposals from community-based

organizations in support of Vermonters’

access to mental health and suicide prevention

care. This new opportunity is made possible

by a generous gift from an anonymous

fundholder. Eligible applicants are community-based

organizations that are currently

deploying evidence-based, culturally competent

mental health and prevention supports

and services either directly or in collaboration

with an experienced mental health community

partner.

While primary providers of health and

mental health services should not be the lead

applicant for these funds, we strongly encourage

collaborative projects that engage such

agencies in the work that is being led by those

community-based organizations that serve

populations most put at risk during the

COVID-19 pandemic. Programming must

include suicide prevention, intervention, and/

or postvention strategies. Programs open to

Amy says that she and Kat love their MCH

nurses and that both she and Kat formed

bonds with every nurse. “I know they truly

care about Kat’s wellbeing,” Amy said. Amy

admits that when she returned home from the

hospital with Kat five years ago, she was

unaware that CVHHH offered such a full

range of services for mothers and babies. She

says the services have changed their lives.

“CVHHH provides for so many people in so

many good ways,” Amy said.

Contributions to CVHHH’s Spring Appeal

can be made at www.cvhhh.org/donate.

all Vermonters are eligible, however, priority

for funding will be given to those organizations

serving the most vulnerable Vermonters

disproportionately impacted by COVID-19,

including those who identify as LGBTQ+,

new Americans (asylees, refugees, English

Language Learners), BIPOC Vermonters,

seniors, veterans, and those impacted by substance

use disorder.

This program will award grants of up to

$10,000 for a 12-month project period.

Applications will be accepted through 5:00

p.m. on Monday, July 12, 2021.

This funding is not intended for new startup

programs or for applicants without a history

of serving the populations identified

above. Potential applicants are encouraged to

to applying at kwiberg@vermontcf.org, 802-

MSAC Thanks Web Industries for support of Remembering

Our Veterans Event May 28!

Huge thanks to local business, Web Industries (formerly

known as Cadcut), for their sponsorship of our annual event in

advance of Memorial Day, back from a 2020 pandemic pause!

Not only did Web Industries generously cover all expenses for

the luncheon for eighty Veterans, their families, and other

older adults who attended, they also provided five employees

to serve the luncheon curbside from our facility!

In addition to the delicious BBQ meal, attendees enjoyed

fanfare of flags and gratitude, plus not one but TWO live

bands as they drove around the senior center to pick up their

curbside meals. Out front on Barre Street, the MSAC

“Swingin’ Over Sixty” band played in the courtyard. On the

side near meal pick-up, guests enjoyed traditional music on

banjo, guitar and fiddle, played by local musicians Kathleen

Moore, Chris Hollis and Alec Ellsworth, pictured in photo. If

Alec’s name is familiar, it’s because he’s also our Parks and

Trees Director and City of Montpelier co-worker of MSAC

staff! Finally, huge thanks to FEAST Manager Sarah Lipton,

Americorps member Andrew Gribbin, volunteer Carole Baker,

and countless others who pulled together this special event.

Vermont Student Anti-Racism Network Donates Anti-Racist

Books to Elementary Schools

The Vermont Student Anti-racism Network (VSARN) is

a youth-led group founded last summer to bring a diverse

group of students together from around the state to advocate

for anti-racist educations. We endeavor to make an impact by

undertaking projects in schools, such as encouraging curriculum

changes, statewide school policy reform, and promoting

anti-racism in our K-12 schools. It is important for kids to be

aware of racism at a young age especially in Vermont; with

only 5.8% of the population being nonwhite it is easy for race

to be overlooked in school curriculum, but racism affects everyone.

According to survey data we collected from over 200 current

high school students in Vermont, 78.5% of Vermonters

believe they did not receive a substantial elementary school

education on race and racism. Furthermore, only 16% of Vermonters

believed that they had beneficial conversations on

racism in school and only 26% of students said that the characters

in their elementary school classroom books had diverse

representation. These results propelled us to action.

One of our current projects is helping to educate kindergarten

through 4th grade students about racism and inclusion in

school systems throughout Vermont. The Book Project started

off with a $1,000 grant from Vermont Community Foundation

(VCF). That money was used to buy 25 sets of 5 different children’s

books about racism and inclusion. Our books include

the following:

• My Daddy, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by Martin Luther

King III

• Ambitious Girl by Meena Harris

• A Kids Book about Racism by Jelani Memory

• The Youngest Marcher: The Story of Audrey Faye Hendricks,

a Young Civil Rights Activist by Cynthia Levinson

thanks to Galaxy Books for the donation! VSARN students

developed lessons and activities for each book with kindergarten

teacher Alyssa Lasher and librarian Anne Brabazon.

In April we did a pilot in Ms. Lasher’s kindergarten class in

Hinesburg using the book My Daddy, Dr. Martin Luther King,

Jr. by Martin Luther King III. We have done a variety of lessons

since, and are excited to continue the project until the

summer and hopefully beyond.

One parent from The Oak Grove school followed up after a

lesson to “Thank the kids who came to class to teach today for

helping contetualize racism for the first graders.

As we continue this project, we hope to help young minds

develop anti-racist beliefs that they will carry with them

through life. We believe that we need to start at the youngest

age to promote anti-racism in our youth; raising anti-racist

youth is the route to changing society.

We’d welcome any schools to get involved. Teachers or

school staff please reach out to us at antiracismvtschools@

We’d also love any VT students to join the group; we are in

a transition period right now, moving towards new projects for

the summer. Please contact the email above to tell us you’re

Governor Phil Scott and Senator Bernie

Sanders Announce Nearly $4 Million In

Grants for Youth Summer Programs

Governor Phil Scott, Senator Bernie Sanders

and Vermont Afterschool announced the

recipients of the Summer Matters for All

Grant Program. A total of $3.85 million was

awarded to about 100 programs in 13 counties

to expand access to summer enrichment opportunities

for K-12 youth this summer.

Governor Scott has put an emphasis on

helping Vermont kids recover from the pandemic

and the isolation it caused, including

creating opportunities for them to safely reconnect

with their peers and their communities.

“As we emerge from the pandemic, we

must do all we can to help kids gain back

what they lost, especially those social connections

and the important development that

comes along with it,” said Governor Scott.

“I’m pleased to have worked with Senator

Sanders and all our partners to put this grant

program forward, which will help make sure

there are more accessible, educational and fun

options for kids and families this summer.”

The grants, funded by federal dollars secured

by Senator Sanders, were awarded

to a variety of programs, including summer

camps, libraries, municipalities, teen centers,

nonprofit social services organizations

and more, to expand the number of weeks

and slots, as well as to increase affordability

and accessibility of summer programs. These

offerings will supplement school-based programs,

as districts in Vermont received federal

funds, which are also eligible for this work.

The funds will also lead to more partnership

options for local school-based programs.

“As we prepare to close out what has been

one of the most challenging school years in

the modern history of our nation, it is good

news that we are making significant progress

for our young people,” said Senator Sanders.

“Not only are we doing better in terms of the

pandemic – with all Vermonters twelve and

older now able to be vaccinated – we are now

investing millions of federal dollars into local

communities for summer activities that will

help thousands of students. The grantees who

will be receiving these funds for their summer

programs are key to ensuring our young

people have the great summer they deserve.

By making their programs free or low-cost,

addressing transportation needs, and finding

opportunities for older students – like expanded

employment options – these organizations

are tackling the maor barriers faced

by so many working Vermont families during

the summer months. I thank each and every

one of the people who have worked to make

today possible and look forward to seeing all

you are able to do this summer.”

In total, the funds will create 31,650 new

summer program slots over the course of the

summer, lead to a total of 238 new weeks of

summer programming and decrease the average

weekly cost to families by $162. Additionally,

55 of the grant recipients will offer

transportation; 100 will offer low or no cost

programming for eligible students, and 90 are

ensuring access for all kids, including those

with disabilities or unique needs.

“Summer is the perfect opportunity to help

kids reconnect and recharge. We are incredibly

grateful to our state leaders and policymakers

for their commitment to the development

of the Summer Matters for All Grant

Program. With this funding, communities

and youthserving organizations across the

state will be able to create a great summer

for Vermont children and youth that will help

them make new memories and emerge from

the pandemic strong, resilient, and hopeful,”

said Holly Morehouse, Executive Director of

Vermont Afterschool.

campaign, visit: https://www.vermontafterschool.org/summermatters/.

grant recipients will be available here: https://

of any era who served in any capacity

was like to serve their country. Non-veterans

are encouraged to attend and listen. This event

is non-political, and all perspectives are valued.

sharing our stories. Attending these gatherings

is a reminder of the community we wish

to embrace after military service.”

Raymond K. Johnson, Sr.

BARRE TOWN - Raymond

Keith Johnson Sr., 82, of

Osborne Road passed away peacefully at

1:40 a.m. on Saturday, May 22, 2021, at

the McClure Miller Respite House in

Colchester, VT with his loving wife of 48

years, Donna; son, Raymond Jr.; daughter,

Louise; and granddaughter, Gianna

at his side, maintaining a constant vigil

of love, care, kindness, and comfort

throughout his stay. In return, Raymond shared his unique

sense of humor and many Texan stories with staff, family, and

friends. His gentle smile and contagious laugh were only

second to his positive attitude and outlook on life.

Born on March 16, 1939, in Lamesa, Texas, he was the son

of Pauline Kee Johnson of Lamesa, Texas and Othal Ray

Johnson of Lindale, Texas. Raymond was very proud to be a

Texan and proud of his multi-generational hard-working family.

His maternal grandfather was Captain Enoch Magnus

Sparks, a Veteran of the Confederate Army who was honorably

discharged in 1868. Raymond’s paternal grandmother,

Mary Crow Johnson was a native Cherokee Indian of whom

Raymond greatly admired and was proud to have as part of

his heritage.

In Raymond’s early years, summers were spent in East and

West Texas where he enjoyed farming, working in canneries

with his cousins and crop-dusting in 2-seater airplanes. Drag

racing was always on the list of boyhood fun as were the

famous Louisiana Hayrides where he and his friends saw

Buddy Holly and Elvis perform.

Raymond’s grandparents taught him Bible Studies, and this

contributed to his love and respect for God, country, and fellow

man. After WWII, his father, Othal was honorably discharged

from the Army and moved the family to Carlsbad,

New Mexico where Raymond graduated from high school.

He later attended a branch of New Mexico State University.

Raymond was always described by his peers as being selfmotivated

and self-sufficient. He was employed by US Borax

Company for nine years as the payroll manager for the extensive

employees associated with the Potash Mines. He obtained

his real estate license at the age of 19, assisting fellow miners

in purchasing suitable housing. A few years later, he accepted

a position at St. Francis Hospital in Carlsbad, NM where he

became the office manager of all accounts. Raymond served

in the Army National Guard of New Mexico for 4 years. His

other civic duties included serving as president of the local

Little League organization and he was also a member of the

Elks Club.

In the late 1960’s, Raymond moved to Memphis, Tennessee

to accept a position with Wallace E. Johnson, the founder of

Holiday Inns of America. Raymond was hired as the Vice

President of Medical Development Services, Inc, which

served as the medical division of Holiday Inn. Raymond oversaw

the construction and management of various specialty

hospitals and long-term care facilities throughout the

Southern States. He was instrumental in the licensure of the

first federal medicare long-term facility in Wilmington,

North Carolina. Upon completion of Doctors Memorial

Hospital, a surgical hospital in Spartanburg, South Carolina,

Raymond met Donna M. Grippo, RN, BSN, the Director of

Nurses. Raymond and Donna married in 1973, they later

moved to Vermont where he became co-owner and partner of

Health Care Services in Berlin, Vermont.

In 1979, Raymond and Donna founded Hospitality Homes,

residential care homes located in Vermont and New

Hampshire. These residential care homes served many individuals

enabling people to live supervised, yet independent

and productive lives. Their motto was “Share a home, share a

life.”

Raymond’s enjoyment of Vermont was found in biking,

downhill skiing, snowmobiling, boating on Lake Groton,

brush hogging the fields of the family home in Barre and cutting

wood on his 100 acres.

Raymond’s love of life and pride in family continues

through his wife, Donna of Barre; son, Raymond Jr., of

Burlington; daughter, Louise and “apple of his eye” granddaughter,

Gianna, both of Milton; as well as his sister, Linda

Johnson Hansen and husband, Rich of Monument, Colorado;

nephews, Kelly Farmer and wife of Tokyo, Japan; and Shawn

Farmer and family of Modesto, California.

Family and friends may call on Thursday, June 17, 2021,

from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. – a eulogy will be delivered at 6:00

p.m. – in the Hooker Whitcomb Funeral Home, 7 Academy

Street, Barre. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on

Northern Vermont University’s Lyndon Campus

to Host Annual Veterans Summit

The Ninth Annual Veterans Summit will be held on Northern

Vermont University’s Lyndon Campus on Monday, June

14. Veterans, military families, and anyone who cares about

veteran’s issues are invited to attend. The event includes

speakers, breakout sessions, exhibitor booths, and a vaccine

clinic for veterans who would like to receive either the Moderna

or Janssen COVID-19 vaccine. The Veterans Summit

will be held outdoors at NVU’s Veterans Park, rain or shine.

The event, typically held in March each year, was able to be

rescheduled for June 14 as the shift in COVID-19 guidance

from the Vermont Department of Health allowed the campus

to begin to reopen to community events.

“Great things happen at the summit because veterans, their

family members, and stakeholders get together to share valuable

information and to support one another,” said Thom Anderson,

NVU Associate Dean of Academic Programs, U.S.

Marine Corps veteran, and Veterans Summit organizer. “The

exhibitors provide a wide array of services and resources. The

speakers and presenters bring fresh insights, expertise, and inspiration.

There is something of value for everyone.”

Speakers at this year’s Veterans Summit include keynote

Vets Town Hall continued from page 7

Sebastian Junger (War, Tribe) with the aim of increasing communication

and understanding between veterans and civilians

in their communities. The first event of this kind in Vermont

was a ovember urlington town hall spearheaded by

local event coordinator Kristen Eaton, with support from

• • •

• • •

speaker John Hojek, a US. Marine Corps veteran who served

in Iraq. Hojek, who will complete a master’s in clinical social

work this month and is also an NVU-Lyndon alum, has

worked with several veterans’ health care organizations, and

will discuss his ourney to finding his purpose to this work

in honor of those he served with. Dr. Laura Gibson, Associate

Chief of Behavioral Health Services at the White River

Junction VA Medical Center, will address attendees on behalf

of the Veterans Administration and will share information on

available services.

Other breakout sessions will explore “Options for Living

with PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, and Substance Disorders:

Three Perspectives and a Chance to Ask Questions,” “Veterans

Career Opportunities — Employment and Education,”

and “Choosing the Right Care for Your Brain and Pain: Understanding

the eurology of Pain and PTS, the enefits of

Physical Medicine, and How to Find the Care that Helps You

Meet Your Goals.”

Government Overreach Gone Too Far

By House Minority Leader Pattie McCoy

Being first sometimes means coming in last. Vermont has

sure had a lot of “firsts” over the years--the first state to abolish

slavery; the first state to allow civil unions for same-sex

couples; the first state to allow the importation of lower-cost

prescription drugs from Canada; and so on. These are good

firsts. But not all “firsts” are created equally.

A bill before the Vermont Legislature, S.79, would make

Vermont the first state in the nation to have a statewide, government-run,

centralized registry of all privately owned

homes being rented out. This unnecessary expansion of government

into your lives would cost the state over a million

dollars each year--but don’t worry, because proponents want

to pay for that by levying a new fee on as many as 80,000

Vermont homeowners, in the midst of our economic recovery.

Brilliant, right?

From my time as a municipal clerk to my service in the

Vermont Legislature, I’ve seen the hand of state government

slowly creep further and further into the lives of everyday

Vermonters. I liken it to this: Imagine, for example, living

next to a volcano with lava flowing ever so slowly as to cause

no initial alarm--but before you know it, your house, your

driveway, and your whole property are surrounded by it.

That’s precisely what Vermont government has become--a

steady flow of lava encroaching upon every one of us. And we

Graduation Wishes to the Class of 2021

By Deb Paul

Who were you when you started school and who are you

now?

Class of 2021, this moment marks the end of “childhood”,

a defining moment in life that helps you shape your future.

The Class of 2020 had to overcome challenges unprecedented

in modern history, and they got a tremendous amount

of attention and an outpouring of love.

It’s time for the class of 2021 seniors to receive just as

much attention as their predecessors.

Many 2021 graduates had very little contact with their

classmates. While some attended in-person classes off and on,

others completed their coursework in person. All what makes

school fun was so different than what anyone was used to.

Young people who weathered the storm of the pandemic

are to be admired they were amazingly resilient, pushing

through to the conclusion of their education.

You are being asked to step into the future with even more

purpose, vision, passion, and hope for the future.

I wish I could tell you I know the path forward, I don’t, and

there is so much uncertainty out in the world. What I do know

is that using the same guts and imagination is what will sustain

you through what is coming. It’s the resourcefulness that

you have learned, along with how to deal with the fear of

By G. E. Shuman

So, a few months ago my wife and I

got a new bedroom. No, we didn’t

move, but all of our children seemed

to have. Our house, a century-plus old,

four-bedroom Dutch cape in Barre City,

suddenly had three empty bedrooms.

After many years of sharing a double bed, Lorna decided

that she wanted a king sized one. I guess I should have realized

then that the honeymoon was over. Anyway, I had convinced

her to simplify and purge a lot of things she once

considered ‘collectibles’, so getting a new bed seemed like a

small price to pay. We mutually decided to only move things

that we really cared about or needed into the new bedroom and

found that most of the accumulated collections in the old room

were things we had been given, but when and by whom was

anybody’s guess. (Sometimes having a less than perfect

memory may be a blessing.)

We succeeded in repairing walls, painting, and getting the

new bed in only a few weeks, the house probably groaned a

sigh of relief at shedding those hundreds of pounds of ‘stuff’.

The first few nights in our new bed, had strange thoughts. I

don’t sleep well anyway, and suddenly found myself out of

reach, literally out of ‘touch’ with Lorna. One night, while

lying on that bed, missing my wife who was only five or ten

or twenty feet away, I literally thought of an evolutionary tale

I once read about giraffes growing long necks so they could

reach the highest leaves on the trees, (That seems more like a

tall tale to me. Get it? A ‘tall’ tale?) I wondered if my arms

would get longer sleeping in this bed, so I could at least touch

my wife’s hand. I mean, we weren’t going to have more kids,

but this was ridiculous.

should be deeply concerned by it.

Putting aside the intrusion into Vermonters’ lives, this bill

simply doesn’t make logical sense either. Consider this: the

legislation creates 6.5 new taxpayer-financed, state government

positions at a total expense of $850,000 for compensation.

I’m no mathematician, but by my calculation, that works

out to more than $130,000 annually in pay and benefits for

each of these 6.5 new bureaucratic positions. According to the

U.S. Census Bureau, the median household income in

Vermont was less than $62,000. This proposal should be

insulting to each and every Vermonter struggling to make

ends meet.

Put simply, this latest legislation is another attempt to

unnecessarily expand the scope of bureaucracy into the private

lives of Vermonters. There’s no compelling reason to

create a new registry, financed by a new fee on Vermonters, to

support new taxpayer-funded bureaucratic jobs.

Thankfully, the Vermont House Republican Caucus was

able to delay this legislation from being considered--for the

time being. But, rest assured, the Democrat Majority in the

State House is eagerly awaiting its turn to rush it through next

time the Legislature convenes.

I encourage all Vermonters to let their state legislators

know how they feel about this proposal.

Please Help Calais Road Crew

With no compromise, and with few meetings, the Calais

Selectboard successfully defeated the IBEW Union proposal.

I have been with the Calais Road crew for almost six years

and am currently taking home less pay than I was 35 months

ago. Another Road crew employee hired 2-1/2 years ago now

makes less than the last two hired. Of those two, one has

already left.

I received a letter from the Calais Selectboard yesterday

offering a 46 cent per hour raise. This still places me far under

what my counterparts in surrounding towns make and I consider

it unfair. I will be circulating a petition that will demand

that the Calais Selectboard to follow the Union’s pay rate

proposal with retro benefits back to 23 months ago - when the

union was first called.

I am good at my job and you can see my work all over

town. People stop to thank me all the time. It is simply too bad

that fairness is not part of the Selectboard’s discretion.

stepping into the unknown. This makes your class shine above

all others.

Your class has risen up to the challenge of the virus and you

now have an opportunity to create and define the new normal,

using your abilities and leadership to demonstrate pride and

joy for the person you have become.

The pandemic can take away the ceremonies and parties,

but it cannot take away the pride you have in yourself.

From the parent’s perspective, graduation is a reminder of

the passage of time. The trusting eyes of a newborn, the small

hand held on the first day of school is how we will always see

you, depending on us for help out in the world to fix and solve

problems. As parents we rarely see ourselves getting older

until something momentous happens like hearing the name of

your child announced at graduation.

It’s exciting, it’s serious business, the life we make for

ourselves is the only one we have so don’t waste it. For both

parents and students, graduation is a rite of passage; it marks

a transition. Not much is more exciting or scary than that.

Think of what has brought you to this wonderful occasion.

Be safe. Be bold. Mistakes are inevitable.

You will define a new normal. You will combine the tools

of today with the technology of tomorrow to create a happier,

healthier life for us all.

The bed is one of those platform ones that is about the size

of a tennis court, and just changing the sheets seems akin to

putting new sails on a three masted schooner or something.

That bed is totally comfortable. That much I will concede.

The mattress is fourteen inches thick and made of some foam

stuff that I am convinced is a combination of rubber, playdoh,

silly putty, and morphine. Believe me, you feel NOTHING

when lying on that mattress. You can even get up and leave

the room without jiggling or disturbing your partner. What fun

is that?

There is an adage that says “absence makes the heart grow

fonder”. There is another one that proclaims: “out of sight, out

of mind.” I was not exactly out of sight in that bed, but if you

had poor vision, I might have been.

I was beginning to think I was getting paranoid about this

whole thing. The bed is very nice, and Lorna seems happy

with the new, uncluttered room. I guessed our new nighttime

long distance relationship would be okay.

Do you remember, as a kid, making a telephone using two

tin cans and a piece of string? I’m thinking of surprising

Lorna with one of those some night. “Hello. Can you hear me

way over there?”

Every morning, looking in the bathroom mirror, I realize

that my wife looks younger than I do, and I’m thankful for

that. (If she didn’t, I might not care that she sleeps on the other

side of that new bedroom.) She’s still very pretty, very smart,

and even still fits in the earrings I bought her in high school.

At night Lorna keeps her phone way over yonder on her

nightstand, and mine is on my nightstand. I may just call her

some night soon to see if she’s busy.

Discrimination

By: Evan Benoit (gr 7), Alex Clark (gr 6),

Adim Benoit (gr 3) Homeschooled, Montpelier, VT

Discrimination,

Not imagination.

It happens in this nation.

White people would grin

At an African American.

An American Latin

Always felt flattened.

They were never prepared

To get compared

To black human beings

And even some Europeans.

Started after the attacker

Had killed George Floyd

To create a big void

In the social mind

Because we were blind

To not see discrimination,

Mayor’s Report – May 2021

Residents and Neighbors,

The Memorial Day event was held

in-person in City Hall Park at 11 a.m.

on Sunday, May 30th. There wasn’t a

parade this year, but flags were flown

at half-mast from sunrise to noon and

many residents were able to attend. I

want to thank Jeff Bergeron and his

crew for making sure that maintenance

to City Hall Park and the cemeteries

was completed by this date.

The City’s streets crew has shifted emphasis to Perry Street

for sidewalk and water main work prior to paving. Crosswalk

painting on Ayers, South Main, Summer and adjoining side

streets are complete. Over the next two weeks, stop-bars on

those streets should be completed as well as starting crosswalks/stop

bars at the lighted intersections with Parkside/

South Main, then Elm/Summer, and Summer/Maple streets.

Weather permitting, the areas of VT62/North Main, North

Main/Elm, South Main/Prospect are expected to be completed

shortly after that. Camp Street has had drainage structure

repairs completed. Temporary patching will be completed due

to delays in paving, but paving quote solicitation is underway.

Pool construction progress is on schedule with testing and

operator training the week of June 14th. A firm date for the

Ribbon Cutting and Opening has been set for Sunday, June

27th. Replacement of the pool house roof will still need to be

completed.

Council approved naming the clarifier section of the

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)

too precious a thing to be buried in books.

Men should hold it up in front of them every single

“Liberty’s

day of their lives and say: ‘I’m free to think and to

speak. My ancestors couldn’t, I can, and my children will.’

Boys ought to grow up remembering that.” —Sen. Jefferson

Smith

In 1939, it was not clear that the American way was the best

way.

The Great Depression led reasonable people to question

capitalism. Soviet communism seemed like a tantalizing alternative

to some. Fascism was on the march in Europe.

In this context, “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” isn’t a

childish civics lesson. It’s a passionate argument that 18th

Century Enlightenment values are still relevant in the turbulent

20th Century.

This is a smarter and more vital movie than I was expecting.

The story begins with a senator dying just before an important

vote. Jim Taylor – the richest and most powerful man in

the state – has secretly bought up a bunch of cheap land on the

river. Taylor’s senatorial stooge Joseph Paine (Claude Raines)

has proposed a bill that will spend millions of federal dollars

to build a dam, making Taylor even richer.

All Taylor needs is for the newly appointed junior senator

to play ball and back the dam. Too bad for him that the new

guy is an incorruptible boy scout. Our hero is Senator

Jefferson Smith (played by a very young and skinny Jimmy

Stewart).

The climax is a gripping battle between good and evil. Boss

Taylor and Sen. Paine are about to expel Smith from congress

based on false charges. Senator Smith is outnumbered 95 to 1.

But he uses the filibuster to stand up for himself and shine a

spotlight on the truth.

“Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” hardly feels dated at all.

Director Frank Capra argues that there are two big problems

Support BUUSD June 9th Budget

Support the BUUSD Vote. Sometimes there is a perfect

storm and I think we find ourselves in one now. After over a

the CHILDREN OF BARRE. As an older person with grown

kids without children, we are WILLINGLY supporting the

budget. We may not like it, but hope you will feel with us, that

our children are worth it. After the budget passes, get involved

so you understand how the money is spent, and maybe you

can be part of solutions to make BUUSD even better, but

keeping fiscally sound. Don’t take your frustrations out on our

kids. VOTE YES on the BUUSD budget - absentee or on

in American politics. There are super rich guys who have way

too much power behind the scenes. And these same super rich

guys control the media and use the news to scandalize and

destroy people who won’t submit to them.

The scene where Sen. Smith realizes that the reporters he

trusted have made him look like a buffoon is priceless. Smith

stares daggers up at the press booth and begins punching any

reporter he can find.

Frank Capra’s argument about what makes American society

great is well thought out and not obvious. America’s most

essential core values are freedom and individuality, not

democracy.

This is a hugely important distinction. Senator Smith was

appointed, not elected. Six years earlier, German voters

elected the Nazi Party in a free and fair election. In 2021, it is

possible that a majority of citizens might vote to punish or

expel Chinese-Americans. If you wrongly believe that democracy

is more important than liberty, you might actually go

along with it.

“Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” is a great and important

movie. Capra observes that voting is a choice; you can take it

or leave it. But when you hear an American stand up and say

something unusual and unpopular, you need to support her and

defend her freedom of expression with all your might.

Yes!

Attention Car Lovers

The Vermont Antique and Classic Meet is back this year

and will be bigger and better than ever! Scheduled for August

13 through 15th the 64th annual event is presented by the Vermont

Automobile Enthusiasts and is one of the largest antique

and collector car shows in New England.

Located at Farr’s Field on US Rt. 2, west of Waterbury village,

the three day show has many attractions to enjoy missed

at other car shows. For example there will be hundreds of antiue

and classic cars on the field for the three day event. Some

will be judged hoping to win a class trophy and others just

show their cars for everyone to enjoy. Show cars can be as

old as 1900 and up to 1996, the last year a car can be legally

registered as an antique.

The numerous classes of vehicles to be judged include everything

from brass vehicles from pre to classics from

the 20’s and 30’s to many 50’s through the 80’s and 90’s.

There is much more for anyone’s interest in automotive history.

The huge flea market is filled with antiue car parts and

anything else connected to the hobby. For example you will

find antiue sales brochures, repair manuals and repair items,

toy cars, wheel covers, you name it. Then there is the Car Corral

where antique and classic cars are displayed for sale. If you

are looking to sell or buy a collector car the Car Corral is the

place to visit.

The three days of the show include an antique fashion competition,

show car parade through downtown Waterbury, street

dance and much more. Admission to the show is only $12 per

person and kids 12 and under are free. Spectator parking is

free too.

troupes—returning and new acts including singers, musicians,

and dancers; medieval encampments, fight demos, horseback

archery, equestrian games, a joust and so much more.

But the Vermont Renaissance Faire lets you get in on the

action, too. Watch a period archery tournament and then try

your hand on the archery range.

isit over fifty artisans and craft vendors from across er

mont and New England, a mead garden, and food from around

the world. Patrons can indulge their appetites with tasty treats

and handmade crafts. Yes, there will be turkey legs!

Spend a special day with your family meeting artists, storytellers,

wizards, time travelers and even a unicorn.

Vermont Renaissance Faire takes safety seriously: We will

follow and enforce all state and federal guidelines in place at

the time of the event.

The Faire is produced by Wolfgaard Productions, LLC, a

Vermont-based company that operates a number of unique

genre-based events including the Winter Renaissance Faire,

the Vermont Steampunk Expo, the Vermont Living History

Expo and the Sci-Fi & Fantasy Expo.

“My fellow Presenters in the Brotherhood and I are extremely

excited to be appearing once again at the incredible

Vermont Renaissance Faire. This event is great fun for the

whole family and we love meeting all of the wonderful patrons

who come visit us in our encampment and see our shows,

says Sir Brian De Catton of The Brotherhood of the Arrow and

Sword. This fantastic group brings their vast knowledge of

medieval history and Historical European Martial Arts to the

Faire through performance and hands-on opportunities.

ARIES (March 21 to April

19) Lots of possibilities

begin to open up by midweek.

Some seem more

appealing than others.

But wait for more facts to

emerge later on before you consider which to choose.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Bravo to the determined

Bovine. While others might give up, you continue to

search for answers. Expect your Taurean tenacity to begin

paying off by week’s end.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might want to consider

stepping back from the task at hand for a while. This could

help you get a better perspective on what you’ve done and

what still needs to be done.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your keen Cancerian insight

should help you determine whether a new offer is

solid or ust more fluff n stuff. The clues are all there,

waiting for you to find them.

L uly to August eing ignored is difficult for

any proud Leo or Leona. But pushing yourself back into

the spotlight might be unwise. Instead, let things work

themselves out at their own pace.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Trying to uncover a

colleague’s secret under the pretext of showing concern is

ill-advised. Control your curiosity in order to avoid raising

resentment in the workplace.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Expect to hear good

news about a loved one. Also, be prepared for some changes

in several family relationships that could develop from

this lucky turn of events.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Some surprises

are expected to accompany a number of changes that will

continue through part of next week. At least one could involve

a romantic situation.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) You

might be upset by some of your critics. But most of your

associates continue to have faith in your ability to get the

job done, and done well.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A workplace

goal that suddenly seems out of reach is no problem for the

sure-footed Goat, who moves steadily forward despite any

obstacles placed in his or her way.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Uncertainty

about who is right and who isn’t might keep you from

making a clear-cut decision. Wait until you know more

about what you’re being asked to decide.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Be careful to keep

your emotions in check when dealing with a demanding

personal situation. You need to set an example of strength

for others to follow.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have an extraordinary ability to

rally people to do their best. You would be a treasure as a

teacher.

GRADS & DADS 2021 | FABULOUS FINDS

Celebrating from Afar

Ideally, we want to celebrate Father’s Day in the presence of dear old dad. However, living

in different locations on the globe can make it difficult. Even if you will be apart this holiday,

there are several ways to make your father feel appreciated

VIRTUAL GATHERING

Modern technology makes it easier than ever to stay connected

with our families from afar. Take advantage of videocalling

software to set up a dinner date or conversation. If a

meal is in the cards, consider a gift certificate or even calling

his favorite restaurant and purchasing a delicious dish. Make

sure to host the call in a quiet environment so you can both

have quality one-on-one time. Don’t forget to consider time

zone differences, you may have to adjust your schedule to

ensure the dinner is a success.

MAKE FUTURE PLANS

You can give your dad something to look forward to by

planning a something for the next time you are in town. You

should consider activities he is fond of and plan an exciting

day around the event. Here are some ideas that dads will

love.

A day on the links at his favorite golf course, or a new

location he wants to experience;

A fishing trip with epert guides to reveal the sweet spots

on the lake; and

Tickets to a sporting event to see his favorite team.

THEME BOX

Think of your father’s favorite interests to create the

perfect care package for his special day. ou can fill it with

DVDs of his favorite shows or movies, drinks or foods, or

gear for his favorite hobbies.

Father’s Day Quotes

If you’re having trouble finding the words

to tell your father how much he means to

you, these wholesome quotes can give you

inspiration. Whether you write them in a card

or recite them in person, these words will go

straight to his heart.

“I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever

met was my father’s equal, and I never loved

any other man as much.” — Hedy Lamarr

“Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone

special to be a dad, and that’s why I call you

Dad, because you are so special to me.

— Wade Boggs

“Lately all my friends are worried they’re

turning into their fathers. I’m worried I’m not.”

— Dan Zevin

“My father gave me the greatest gift anyone

could give another person. He believed in me.”

— Jim Valvano

“Being a daddy’s girl is like having permanent

armor for the rest of your life.”

— Marinela Reka

“It’s only when you grow up and step back

from him — or leave him for your own home

— it’s only then that you can measure his

greatness and fully appreciate it.”

— Margaret Truman

“No man stands taller than when he stoops to

help a child.” — Abraham Lincoln

“I cannot think of any need in childhood as

strong as the need for a father’s protection.

— Sigmund Freud

Luna came back to us when her

elderly owner could no longer care

for her, and the transition was

initially very upsetting for her, but

she has now settled in, and is

showing us her loving side. She

would probably do best in a quiet

home, without kids or dogs, and

may even prefer to be the only cat.

Planned communities designed

with lifestyle in mind

People move for many reasons, including a desire to be closer to

family or after accepting a job offer. Last year many were spurred by

a “you only live once” mentality as life and the world as we knew it

suddenly changed. As people consider where to move, master planned

communities are garnering more and more attention.

The National Association of Realtors reported that, starting in

March 2020, one in three adults substituted some or all of their typical

work for telework, compared to one in 20 who worked remotely

before the pandemic. The uptick of remote work made many people

consider moving. North American Moving Services indicated that Illinois,

New York, California, New Jersey, and Maryland are the top

states people have been leaving, while Idaho, Arizona, South Carolina,

Tennessee, and North Carolina have welcomed the most new

residents.

While master planned communities once were considered realms

for retirees, such areas also can be great for families, and not all MPCs

are age-restricted. Many buyers are attracted to these homes because

of the sense of community fostered by living in close proximity to

neighbors and sharing a number of exclusive amenities. According

to Ideal Living magazine, many people flock to MPCs for social

outreach. MPCs often have events for residents, including farmer’s

markets, food truck nights, concerts, and other community gatherings

within the communities. Furthermore, MPCs often are built around

golf courses, water parks, nature paths, and other features that physically

connect the residents to one another in unique ways.

According to the financial information resource The Motley Fool,

MPCs have more in common with small cities than traditional subdivisions.

These communities have extensive educational, recreational

and commercial features. They often have their own school systems,

shopping areas, fitness centers, and business districts. Some are gated;

most require an entry pass to use facilities. MPCs can be convenient

for anyone who doesn’t want to travel far away from home for most

of their daily needs.

Furthermore, thanks to exceptional conceptualizing and design,

these communities continue to evolve to offer residents in demand

services. For example, many builders in MPCs are now including

homes that feature designated spaces for home learning and remote

working in their floor plans.

RCLCO Real Estate Advisors says home sales among their topselling

MPCs in 2020 in the United States were 20 percent higher than

in 2019. Communities that top the list are located in Florida, Nevada,

Utah, Texas, and North Carolina.

Building a sense of community takes on new meaning when people

relocate to master planned communities. These developments push

lifestyle and active living to the forefront.
