Duxbury Clipper 2010_11_08

By Luke Cronin, CLipper intern

The electrified whispers of children can be heard in the halls of Alden School during the peak of summer vacation, a rare sound to say the least. From Aug. 2 to Aug. 6 the educational program Club In-vention returned to Duxbury. Students are educated using a type of science-oriented learn-ing that fosters creativity and innovation.

Club Invention operates between 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m. The

camp had between 60-69 stu-dents (depending on the day), four counselors, four instruc-tors, a part-time assistant di-rector, and a director.

The four main classes of the day are SMArt:Science, Math and Art, Hatched, Power’d, and I Can Invent III. SMArt focuses on how science, math, and art are intertwined using tessellations as an example. Hatched is a virtual reality world where each child uses an

After seemingly endless discussion Island Creek North is finally moving forward.

At their meeting Monday night, the Board of Selectmen voted to approve a settlement agreement and the final com-pressive permit negotiated between the Zoning Board of Appeals and the developers of the Island Creek North hous-ing project.

The meeting capped sev-eral weeks of tense negotia-tions and many thought the is-sue settled at the last meeting, when the board met jointly with the ZBA to discuss the fi-

nal permit, but there were still some revisions that had to be approved by both sides. Then, the ZBA had voted 4-1 to ap-prove the permit, with Chair-man Dennis Murphy voting no.

The project has been in the works for several years, a 214-unit expansion of the existing housing complex on Tremont Street near the Kingston line. It will add units to Duxbury’s affordable housing index and will preserve the affordability of units in the existing devel-opment.

The project is under the auspices of 40B, also known

A man with outstanding warrants led police on a long chase Sunday that injured a State Police officer and dam-aged two Harbormaster’s trucks.

A Duxbury officer was in-vestigating a car burglary on Crooked Lane when he dis-covered stolen property in the possession of Cory Hatch, 21, according to a press release from Chief Matthew Clancy.

A computer check revealed that he was the subject of sev-eral outstanding arrest war-rants. Hatch fled the home on foot and ran into an occupied neighboring home. Officers, assisted by a Harbormaster’s Department employee, arrived almost immediately at the sec-ond home, the release said. Of-ficers searched the home, how-ever Hatch fled through a back door and stole the Harbormas-ter’s patrol vehicle, hitting an empty Duxbury Police cruiser on the way. Hatch fled onto Powder Point Ave., the release stated, where he then jumped from the moving truck as it ap-proached another Harbormas-ter’s vehicle. The stolen truck collided with a second Harbor-master’s truck that was being

operated by an employee of the department, however, the driver was not injured.

A manhunt then began in-volving Duxbury Police, State Police, Marshfield Police, Sci-tuate Police and the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department, and a reverse-911 message was sent to homeowners in the area.

At one point a State Troop-er spotted Hatch and gave chase. The trooper suffered a leg injury while scaling a fence and was transported to a local hospital by the Duxbury Fire Department for treatment, according to police.

At around 5 p.m., residents who had received the reverse 911 called police to say they had seen a man fitting Hatch’s description. Hatch was found hiding under a dock off King Caesar Road and was taken into custody without further incident by Patrolman Steven Amado, according to the re-lease.

In addition to the warrants already outstanding for his arrest, Hatch will face a host of additional charges related the car break, invasion of the neighboring home, vehicle theft and pursuit, police said.

A Duxbury High School graduate is among the thou-sands of people working to clean up the mess on the Gulf Coast caused by the Deepwa-ter Horizon oil spill earlier this summer.

Travis Roberts has been in Louisiana since early June, with the Coast Guard Reserve. A UMass Amherst public health student, he serves as a health service technician in the Guard, which he joined about two years ago. He serves one weekend a month, and two weeks a year in the Reserve.

Normally stationed at Wood’s Hole on the Cape, Roberts has been on the Gulf Coast since early June, work-ing as a safety officer.

“The entire operation is quite massive,” he said. “There are a lot of things that could be hazardous.”

He was eating at the UMass dining hall when he first received word that he would be deployed. Right away, he was excited to be able to help in the clean up ef-forts after the BP well leak.

“I was thinking ... this is going to be a big thing, chances are I’m going to get involved in it in one way or another,” he said.

Within 48 hours, Roberts was on a plane to Louisiana. He will be deployed for 60 days, and said he volunteered to go down with the first wave so he could resume his studies in the fall.

From the moment he stepped off the plane, he saw the impact of the spill on the people.

“The first thing I noticed, even before I saw a drop of oil, was how affected the locals had been,” he said. “Everyone from the taxi drivers on down, all the people.”

Many local fishermen and their boats were enlisted to help in the cleanup efforts. Roberts’ job as a safety officer is to inspect the equipment of both the locals and the govern-ment workers to make sure working conditions are safe.

“We have a great number of industrial hygienists, peo-ple from OSHA, department of labor. Make sure people are using the right respirators or whatever equipment they’re

using,” he said.Some of the air and water

samples Roberts takes are sent back to Duxbury, to be pro-cessed at Battelle Laboratories on Washington Street.

His day begins early, at 5:30 a.m. with a briefing from Coast Guard commanders. Some days he will work on shore in a lab, and some days he will go out on the water to inspect the skimming boats and other equipment.

“It’s a very organized sys-tem,” he said.

He even got to perform an inspection on one of the spe-cialized oil collecting boats developed by actor Kevin Costner.

“Nothing like that had ever been done before,” he said. “That was a cool oppor-tunity.”

Roberts said it’s difficult to say what the greatest danger to workers is, although he point-ed out the 100-degree heat is something safety personnel is constantly looking at.

“We look for everything,” he said. “Anything that can cause hazard to people ... We try to keep everyone safety conscious.”

He said that the mood among the workers is good, and the local people are start-ing to recover from the dam-age.

“People are happy to be down here even though they’re missing out on their summer,” he said. “This is the biggest emergency the coast guard has

had to deal with, maybe neck and neck with Katrina.”

He also said that many lo-cal businesses and emergency personnel are getting contracts to help with the cleanup.

“They care, they truly care. I think everyone in the country cares, but this is their life,” he said.

Roberts, who wants to work in the public health field when he is finished with school, is proud of the part he’s played in the cleanup efforts.

“It will be cool to say I was there, I had my boots on the ground,” he said.

DHS graduate and current Coast Guard Reservist Travis Roberts stands near a spotter plane the Coast Guard is using to hunt for oil off the Louisiana coastline. Roberts is working as a safety officer in the area affected by the BP oil spill.

The Duxbury manager’s union, which was formed in early 2008 and included many town department heads, has been dissolved.

Town Manager Richard MacDonald announced that SEIU local 888 no longer rep-resents the professional super-visory unit. They are now cov-ered under the personnel plan.

The union began in early 2008 as the Duxbury Profes-sional Employees Association (DPEA) and was led by then Police Chief Mark DeLuca and Library Director Elaine Winquist. Eventually, the group became part of SEIU, although DeLuca was not part of it.

The move created some tension in town, with union members accusing town offi-cials of dragging their feet in an open letter published in the Clipper. Some town officials felt the union could be divisive or conflict with established re-view procedures.

The Board of Selectmen voted to raise several admin-istrative fees at their meeting Monday night, citing declin-ing town revenues and the fact that many of the fees hadn’t been raised in several years.

Frank Mangione of the Fis-cal Advisory Committee gave his board’s recommendations. Most of the increases were mi-nor, but Mangione said many of them were long overdue.

“It’s time and effort,” he said of the justification for the fee hikes. “The town man-ager’s office has to put in a lot of hours completing these forms.”

The extra revenue raised from increasing the Board of Selectmen fees is only pro-jected to be a few thousand dollars, according to a spread sheet prepared by the town manager and his staff.

The board also voted to increase a number of building fees. Director of Inspectional Services Scott Lambiase said the fees are based on an es-timate of how much a home costs to build, per square foot.

“We’re just trying to be a little more realistic to what it actually costs to build the houses,” he said, adding that there is also a deficit in his de-partment’s budget. “We’re try-ing to bridge that gap.”

The increased fees in this department are project-ed to bring in an additional $27,258.07. All of the new fees will be effective start-

ing Sept. 1. Dahlen abstained from voting on the inspection-al services fees as he is in the construction business.

(For a full listing of the fee increases voted on Monday, see sidebar.)

In other business:• Resident Jim Sullivan

came before the board to ask for an update on the cafeteria workers whose benefits were cut last year. Dahlen said that the schools signed an agreement with the company Chartwells to privatize the school lunch program. He said that 23 of the workers have agreed to interview with the new company. Dahlen said the move would turn a $160,000 loss last year to a potential gain of over $100,000 in school budget “based upon the contract they signed.”

However, Sullivan was still angry that the workers were, in his opinion, treated unfairly.

“We teach our children not to be bullies ... these are the most defenseless employees on the payroll,” he said.

• The board approved an

event permit for a hunger walk, run by the Pilgrim Church, on Oct. 16.

• The Selectmen approved a gift of $250 from the New-comers Club to the Percy Walker Pool.

• The board appointed the members of the Crematory Building Committee as special municipal employees.

• The Selectmen called for a state primary election on Sept. 14. Voting will take place from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the middle school.

Duxbury is ‘No place for bullies!’The No Place for Hate Committee will confront the issue

of bullying in an assembly on Sept. 7 at the Middle School. 16-year-old Brigitte Berman, author of the book “Dorie Witt’s Guide to Surviving Bullies,” will be the featured speaker. Ber-man will also speak to interested parents and students at 7 p.m. that evening in the Middle School Auditorium.

“Dorie Witt’s Guide to Surviving Bullies” is a fictional ac-count of a girl, Dorie Witt, who deals with many challenges that today’s girls and boys face. Dorie endures the difficult transi-tion from grade school to junior high. She begins the school year with excited anticipation, but soon finds herself the target of bullies whose sole reason for living seems to center around making Dorie’s life miserable. Dorie blindly believes she can escape the torment of the bullies by being nice and ignoring their taunts. The resilient Dorie is able to withstand their re-peated abuse until she is delivered the final emotional blow from an unexpected source; her best friends. Dumped by her friends for a shot at class popularity, Dorie finds herself sinking into a world of depression, despair and isolation. Only when Dorie begins to trust herself, the adults in her life and her arch foe and sister, Luna, does life turn around. Dorie realizes that if she can hang tough in trying times, any situation can change for the bet-ter. Dorie emerges from her ordeal stronger, confident and with a fresh perspective. Dorie also offers realistic approaches to solv-ing problems and provides a “how to resource guide” from the unique point of a teenager and leaves us with the universal mes-sage of tolerance.

Berman wrote this book in eighth grade at the age of four-teen because she felt an urgent need to raise the consciousness and take action on the topic of bullying. She has spent the last year touring schools and communities speaking about all aspects of bullying.

Berman recently testified at the Massachusetts State House in support of bullying legislation and has spoken at such events as the ADL Women of Valor Luncheon, Walk for Respect and has been featured as a young entrepreneur for the Summit Series for Families.

The Board of Health would like to share the following information about mental health is-sues with the community:

What causes depression?There are several factors that can cause de-

pression:A chemical imbalance in the brainA family history of depressionSignificant life changes, or losses, such

as the death of a loved one, divorce, financial stressors

Illness or medicationSubstance Abuse-drugs or alcoholHow is depression treated?Medications: Antidepressants help restore

the chemical balance in the brain, which should allow a person to return to normal functioning. It is important to remember that these types of

medications can take four-six weeks before their full effect is felt.

Psychotherapy: Also known as “talk ther-apy,” allows a person to speak with a mental health professional about his or her condition, sharing past experiences, either alone or in a group. This type of therapy has been found to be very effective.

Practice Relaxation Techniques: Try deep breathing exercises, yoga, taking a walk, read-ing a book, meditation, writing in a journal or playing with a pet. Practicing relaxation tech-niques has many positive health benefits. It can lower one’s blood pressure, lessen pain, increase confidence, balance, and motivation, and decrease anxiety.

as the “anti-snob” zoning act, which allows developers to circumvent local zoning regu-lations.

After months of public hearings, the Zoning Board is-sued a comprehensive permit, but the applicants found sev-eral of the conditions unten-able and appealed to the state Housing Appeals Court. That’s when the Board of Selectmen stepped in.

Selectmen Chairman Shawn Dahlen was careful to point out that his board wasn’t directly involved with nego-tiations.

“We’ve never had a single word of input into this deci-sion,” he said. “We didn’t have anything to do with the final document.”

Although they couldn’t technically get involved with the details of crafting the per-mit, the Selectmen do have some authority to deal with litigation and they helped the ZBA and the applicant come back to the table. Both the Selectmen and the ZBA met in executive session, behind closed doors, with representa-tives from Island Creek over the last couple of weeks.

On Monday, Town Coun-sel Robert Troy met with the Selectmen behind closed doors for about 30 minutes before coming back into open session

to announce the final version of the permit.

Selectman Christopher Donato, who is the liaison to the ZBA, said he was troubled by the amount of discussion that took place in executive session, although he eventu-ally voted to approve the final permit.

He asked the members of the ZBA present on Monday if they would still have voted to approve the permit, even with the additional changes made since the last meeting.

“There are changes, I’m not troubled by them,” said ZBA Vice Chairwoman Judi Barrett.

“I think it’s a good effort by the ZBA, the applicant and town counsel,” added Michael Gill.

Murphy said he wanted to make sure there would be no further changes to the lan-guage in the permit.

Both Dahlen and Troy said that the document approved on Monday was final.

“This has been a long road,” said Dahlen. “I know how much time they spent dealing with this and I greatly appreciate it ... it’s a significant effort,” he said. He particular-

ly thanked Murphy, who wrote the permit. “I can’t even imag-ine the number of hours it took to cross as many t’s and dot as many i’s as you did.”

Dahlen also said that de-veloper Keith had been ap-proached by previous incarna-tions of the Board of Selectmen with the idea of expanding Is-land Creek.

“Even to this date I’m sur-prised that we are where we are on something that really has no negative feedback from the general public,” he said. “This is a great thing for the town of Duxbury.”

“The assisted living com-ponent is something we didn’t even dream of ... there is a desperate need for assisted liv-ing,” said Betsy Sullivan. She also complimented Keith per-sonally. “He is a good neigh-bor, he is an amazing commu-nity partner,” she said.

The project contains 214 units, and 314 total bedrooms. There are 108 rental apart-ments, 12 3-bed townhouses, 94 units of assisted living. The existing development contains 108 units.

The board voted 3-0 to ap-prove the final permit and exe-cute the settlement agreement.

Interfaith Council school supply and backpack drive

The TLC Backpack Com-mittee of the Duxbury Inter-faith Council is making plans for the preparation and distri-bution of backpacks and school supplies to our less fortunate neighbors in Duxbury. The goal is to provide new back-packs and new school supplies to the students of families facing financial hardships in grades K-12. Donations will help our future generation be equipped to learn and enjoy school. The cost of a backpack with school supplies varies by grade but on average is $100. The council is hoping to raise $6,000 in order to meet the needs. One hundred percent of all donations go back into the community.

DMF presents ‘Cinderella’

Children came all decked out in fancy outfits to this humorous opera. Cinderella’s Pumpkin carriage was on hand for children

to sit in. Katie and Ryan Johnson did just that.

The prince, Brad Fugate, does find his princess, Theresa Wakin, but he still has some questions for her.

Cinderella played by Theresa Wakin, signs autographs after the perfor-mance. The performers are from the South Shore Conservatory’s Opera by the Bay.

Giggles and rapt attention were displayed throughout the show by the audience.

All across Massachusetts, during the week of August 22 through 28, people are cele-brating Farmers Market Week. Come celebrate our own Dux-bury Farmers and Artisans Re-gional Market (DUXFARM), now in its second year at the Tarkiln Community Center on

Route 53, on Wednesday, Aug. 25. Several fun activities have been planned. Well-known storyteller, Lady Laura, will present an interactive fairy tale, Cinderella, at 1 p.m. 3D Guitars and Music of Pem-broke will offer local talent 2-4 p.m. including perfor-

mances on such instruments as the saxophone and guitar. And, for anyone looking for something new to serve, there will be 1some of our vendors’ favorite recipes which will be handed out for the occasion.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW: The children’s staff of the Duxbury Free Library visited Africa and are now on their way to the continent with the largest fresh water lake in the world and the only continent with every kind of climate. Place your guess in the jar when you visit the children’s department. World travelers who have completed their passport have until the end of August to pick up their free book courtesy of the Friends of the Duxbury Free Library.

avatar to help rebuild a world’s economy and marketplace. Power’d is a class that requires the students to use circuitry and build their own machine. I Can Invent III is a seminar dedicated to the instruction of dissembling and construct-ing one’s own machine. In the past, students have made Rube Goldberg machines to pop a single balloon.

The program is cost-ef-fective partially due to their innovative “Recycle Room” program. Students bring in old, broken machines to tinker with, whereas the counselors bring in materials such as old cardboard boxes, milk cartons, and cardboard tubes.

The last day of the week began with the Inventor’s Showcase. At the showcase, each junior inventor presented their creation to an audience of their peers and parents. There were four teachers assisting with the camp: Patti Maclen-nan, Laura Geigle, Katie Don-ovan, and Kelli Murray. In ad-

dition to those teachers, there were two junior instructors, both of whom were alumni of the program.

Program Director Krissy Chase is ecstatic about the direction that the program is headed. She believes the pro-gram instills a sense of curios-ity within the campers.

“They’re exploring scien-tific concepts and figuring out things for themselves” said Chase.

Club invention comes to Duxburycontinued from page one

Police get traffic grantThe Duxbury Police Department was recently awarded a

grant to fund local participation in national traffic safety mobi-lizations campaigns such as “click it, or ticket” and “you drink, you drive, you lose”. The award, granted by the Governor’s Highway Safety Division, will help to offset personnel costs as-sociated with Duxbury’s participation in the mobilizations.

“The most common complaint I have received as the new Chief in Duxbury relates to speeding vehicles and excessive noise created by motorcycles,” Chief Matthew Clancy stated in a release. “This grant award is just one step in a renewed traffic enforcement effort to be undertaken by Duxbury Police”

To further the efforts the department is creating a traffic en-forcement unit that will be charged with managing and tracking traffic complaints and reviewing traffic crash data for the pur-pose of directing and conducing proactive enforcement efforts. The unit will also be charged with developing educational pro-grams as well.

“Our goal is to make our roads among the safest in the re-gion” Clancy said.

Police: Vandalism on the rise

Typically summer time is the prime time for petty van-dalism. Complaints of mailbox destruction and spray paint tagging are typical events that police investigate in larger numbers during the summer months. Over the past two months Duxbury residents have been victimized on 3-4 occasions by early morning vandalism sprees. In order for the police to conduct an effec-tive investigation into these cases and to devise effective deterrent strategies we must be aware of all occurrences. The vast majority of victims do not report the event to law enforcement. Duxbury Police urge residents to notify police of such vandalism. They also urge residents to report any suspicious activity or suspi-cious vehicles they may en-counter to police, particularly late and night or in the early morning hours.

Seawall bill signed into lawLegislation allowing the Town of Duxbury to assess bet-

terments to help pay for seawall repairs in the Gurnet Road section of town has been passed by the Legislature and signed into law by the governor, Sen. Robert L. Hedlund (R-Wey-mouth) and Rep. Daniel Webster (R-Pembroke) announced.

The town of Duxbury voted at the Special Town Meet-ing in April to spend $263,205.71 on repairs for the 50-year-old seawall, which is cracked in several places and starting to shift. The vote also included a home rule petition asking the Legislature for permission to charge betterments to Gurnet Road property owners to defray the cost of the work.

The bill received initial approval by the House on July 7, and by the Senate on July 26. Both the House and Senate enacted the bill on July 27. It was signed by the governor last week.

“In the wake of the tragic events that occurred in the Gulf States during the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina, Duxbury’s residents have expressed a growing concern over their homes’ safety and future storm surges. Furthermore, these seawalls protect fragile marsh ecosystems as well as the roadways which provide these residents access to and from the main-land section of town,” said Rep. Webster, who co-sponsored the bill along with Sen. Hedlund and Rep. Thomas Calter (D-Kingston).

“Seawalls are the first-line of defense in protecting mil-lions of dollars worth of property and homes. I am pleased to see the Town of Duxbury being proactive and making repairs to this seawall before it becomes a larger problem,” Sen. Hed-lund said.

Students at the recently held Club Invention camp at the Alden School had fun with hands-on science experiments.

Some may think of com-munity access television as a refuge for rambling political rants or poorly-produced back-yard wrestling shows. But for the collaborative’s staff, those words on the wall outline the core principle behind what they do –– giving every citizen a voice and a camera.

Past the lobby is a hall-way lined with several edit-ing rooms, a clean modern meeting room, a training cen-ter complete with six com-puter workstations, and even a kitchen studio that serves as the staff lunch room –– or the set of a kitchen show.

PAC-TV moved to the new facilities two years ago, after a decade or so on Court Street in downtown Plymouth. For Executive Director Nancy Richard, who has been with PAC-TV since its inception in 1996, the studio is a place where residents can come to speak their minds or let their creative side show.

“It’s really supposed to be a reflection of what the community is,” said Carol McGilvray, who is in charge of membership and marketing for PAC-TV.

Asked why some towns are choosing to start indepen-dent nonprofit corporations rather than work with the ca-ble giants, Richard’s answer is simple: “The cable companies are refusing to do it,” she said.

PAC-TV is working with Duxbury to provide commu-nity access programing. Al-though the town’s new cable agreement hasn’t been final-ized, residents with the Veriz-ion FiOS service can already see the collaborative’s content on Channel 43. Comcast cus-tomers will get access when that company inks its new deal with Duxbury.

PAC-TV runs the edu-cational and government ac-cess channels for Plymouth and Kingston, which joined up in 1998. In Duxbury those channels will stay separate. Although not all Duxbury residents can currently see the PAC-TV channel, they are welcome to sign up as mem-bers or provide content.

Membership in PAC-TV is $30 a year, and includes an orientation and the ability to borrow equipment after taking a certification course (there is a refundable deposit for some classes).

“It goes through what ac-cess is, why access exists in the first place,” Richard said of the orientation. “It’s prob-ably the best spent $30 you can imagine.”

Richard said that people who produce their own con-tent are welcome to send their shows in, free of charge. She said they do accept some con-tent from out-of-town sources, but local residents of the three towns are always given prefer-ence.

The channel will have some reoccurring weekly shows and some specials. McGilvray said about 20-25 shows come in each week, and the time slots are first-come first-serve.

Shows can be anything –– a political forum, a cooking show, a history program –– whatever residents and mem-bers want to produce.

“Maybe [the members] have a creative bent and it gives them another outlet,” said McGilvray. “Sometimes I think they’re amazing at what they can actually create.”

The collaborative will also help produce PSAs for non-profits. They’ll often give the group a DVD and will help them upload the spot to You-tube.

“It’s part of our mission,” said Richard.

PAC-TV has a staff of nine, including several Dux-bury residents. Most have been with the company for five years or more.

Richard said PAC-TV’s commitment to access for all is ingrained in their employ-ees, many of whom serve on volunteer boards and commit-tees in their home town.

“That’s what PAC-TV is, a community service organiza-tion,” she said.

The class schedule for PAC-TV was not finalized as of press time, but should be up by the end of the month at pactv.org.

To the Duxbury Board of Health and the Editor of the Dux-

bury Clipper: I want to register a strong objection to the aerial spraying of our town. 1. I feel that it is a long term health risk to humans (low level carcino-gens are now rampant in our society and the cancer rate in humans and in their companion pets is rising steadily) 2. It is going to have a huge impact on the beneficial insect population: solitary bees and other polli-nators such as humming bird moths do not have any shelter from the spray (unlike honey bees). Butterflies, especially the much loved monarch butterfly, are suffering a huge population loss due to habitat decimation. Aerial spraying will likely kill many of the remaining individ-uals. 3. Amphibians, another class of animals at risk, are vul-nerable to this spray. My pond is full of bull frogs and green frogs this summer, buzy eat-ing mosquito larvae. They will

likely be killed or sickened. 4. Some of us own livestock that cannot be kept inside a closed dwelling when the spraying oc-curs. I have horses that live in a barn that cannot be closed. My neighbor’s cows are currently out to pasture. 5. Many of us have organic gardens (that have not gone through the expen-sive and lengthy certification process since we are not com-mercial enterprises) and will now have our produce tainted by a chemical spray. It is time for us to begin to acknowledge

that the short term removal of one health risk in our environ-ment (e.g. EEE) will introduce another greater and more long lasting one (habitat loss and cancer risk). It seems to me that this decision is short sighted and poses a risk far greater than generally understood. It is also virtually impossible to opt out of the spraying. Thank you for your consideration,

Hats off to Dan Kostreva. In the past three years he has turned his dream of forming a summer symphonic or-chestra into the Southeast Alumni Symphony Orches-

tra. On a shoestring budget he located a professional conductor and a group of talented musicians of all ages from Duxbury and the surrounding communities to play. Last Wednesday evening they presented a wonderful Pops concert to an enthusiastic crowd at the PAC. Bravo Dan, and I look forward to next summer’s con-cert.

Seeking help with bills ———

A victory for island creek North, townAfter what seemed like endless negotiations, the

expansion of Island Creek was finalized Monday night. It’s a project that has been a long time

coming for proponents of affordable housing in town, including many senior citizens who see themselves being priced out of Duxbury.

The Board of Selectmen appears to have successfully walked a tightrope in this matter, exercising their legal authority to manage litigation without interfering directly with another board’s authority, and in doing so Duxbury has avoided a costly appeal before the state. We appreciate Selectman Donato’s concern for some of the negotiations happening in executive session, but the snags between the developer and the town were down to small details before the doors were closed. Ultimately, Monday night was the result of different boards working together to look out for what’s best for the town.

A word of caution, however –– all throughout the process, we heard the refrain that a prior board of selectmen had asked the Island Creek developers to expand, as if that should have given the builders a golden ticket to proceed. John Keith’s good relationship with the town is a bonus, but it shouldn’t have had any bearing on the ZBA’s comprehensive permit process. Keith’s project, like any other, should have been vetted on its own merits.

And while we’re on the subject, we’d like to give the Zoning Board credit for their hard work on this project. Take it from someone who attended dozens of public hearings on Island Creek –– some of which lasted until midnight –– all board members seemed to believe that, in theory, this project was good for Duxbury. But the crowd of folks who attended the first few hearings seemed to think that good will was enough to approve the project instantly. That’s simply not how 40B projects work. The ZBA, as the comprehensive permitting authority, has a lot of details to sift through and even the good 40B projects take months or years to move through. The ZBA’s job is to look out for the town’s interests, and they have performed admirably in this case.

In the end, we have a project, built by a developer who has been a good neighbor, that will raise Duxbury’s affordable housing index and allow aging residents a more affordable alternative to stay in Duxbury, near their families and loved ones. On Monday night, everyone won.

By Dr. KimBerly melloni, Special to the clipper

The map of reported Lyme disease cas-es in the United States shows coastal Massachusetts as one of the most

dangerous areas in the country. And the inci-dence of Lyme disease is rising. We are running

fourth in prevalence be-hind New Hampshire, Delaware and Connect-icut. This is one race we don’t want to win.

Q: What can I do to prevent Lyme dis-ease?

A: Most commonly, Lyme disease is trans-mitted through deer tick bites. These ticks are often found on deer.

The ticks love living in areas with shrubs, scat-tered leafs and tall grass. The strongest preven-tion method involves covering your skin with tall socks, long pants and long sleeves. These are not exactly the preferred clothes of sum-mer. Insect repellent with 20-30 percent DEET is effective against ticks but not recommended for infants less than two months old. And keep this stuff out of your eyes, nose and mouth. Be sure to wash repellent off your hands with soap and water before eating. Perform a “tick check” when you get home. Ticks are often missed on the scalp and in the groin and armpit region. Put your clothing in the washer and dryer to kill any ticks that might have hopped on. In your yard, keep shrubs and bushes away from play areas and equipment. Pest control companies can spray with acaricide in the spring to reduce the tick population. Barriers to prevent deer from entering your yard will further protect against ticks.

Q: How do I know if I have Lyme dis-ease?

A: To get Lyme disease a tick has to have bitten you and been attached to your body for 24 hours or more. Lyme disease affects people differently. While some may have severe, long-term debilitating symptoms, others may not suf-fer from it at all. About 70-80 percent of people infected with Lyme disease will develop the rash that starts at the site of the tick bite within a month after the bite. There may be a lesion, along with fever, tiredness and a headache. If not treated early, the infection can spread to other parts of the body and affect joints, the heart and the central nervous system.

Q: How do I remove a tick if I see one on me?

A: The Centers for Disease Control offers instruction on how to remove a tick: Remove a tick as soon as you notice it. Use fine-tipped tweezers to firmly grasp the tick very close to your skin. With a steady motion, pull the tick’s body away from your skin. Then clean your skin with soap and warm water. Throw the dead tick away with your household trash. Do not be alarmed if the tick’s mouthparts remain in the skin. Once the mouthparts are removed from the rest of the tick, it can no longer transmit the Lyme disease bacteria.

Q: How do doctors treat Lyme disease?A: A three-week to three month course of

antibiotics is common. If bitten, talk with your doctor as soon as possible. A Lyme disease test has to be done two to three weeks after a sus-pected bite to get accurate results.

To learn more, visit the CDC Web site at: http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/Lyme. Dr. Melloni is the chief of emergency medicine at Jordan Hospital in Plymouth.

Standish Humane Society announces its 16th annual Folk and Fur Fest “Doggiepaw-looza” on Sunday, Sept. 19 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Wompatuck State Park on Union Street in Hingham.

Doggiepawlooza kicks off with a three-mile walk on a paved and handicapped-accessible route through the beautiful state forest. A free T-shirt will be given for every registration dona-tion of $50 or more. Donations over $250 will receive a specially inscribed garment. Awards will be given to the top three fundraisers.

Folk and Fur Fest is an event for families, pet lovers, dogs and kids. There will be live music including jazz flute and guitar by Don and Lisa. Some of the activities include pet and human massage, dog contests, an animal be-havior advice booth featuring Kathryn Wrubel,

PhD; and demonstrations by and advice from dog trainers and agility experts Terry Haskins of The Dog Butler and Karen Lambrecht of Pawsitively Obedient. All dogs must be wear-ing a current rabies vaccination tag and have up to date vaccinations.

The walk is Standish Humane Society’s main benefit and the donations received sup-port an active spay/neuter program and a no-kill cat shelter. Last year Standish subsidized nearly $50,000 in spay and neuter services for over 1,000 cats and dogs.

For more information on how you can be-come involved in the event or to request a reg-istration form, call 781-834-4663 or visit our Web site at standishhumanesociety.com. Dona-tions can be mailed to: Standish Humane Soci-ety, P.O. Box 634, Duxbury, MA 02331.

SUMMER SPECIAL

We Accept Credit Cards

Katydids have started their night-time chattering around my house, a sure

sign that high summer is upon us. I’m staying as philosophical as I can about the Red Sox. They have convinced me that my lifetime personal fitness plan will prove correct: never, ever allow myself to become over-conditioned. I might snap a tendon, and I can’t afford to take my bat out of the lineup of my

life. The Marshfield Fair is just around the corner, and I don’t want to miss it.

I have to reduce my normal dose of Fair life this year. I’ll still be around, but my school schedule has left me

with my own backlog of haying, fence-mending, and puttering to handle. The Fair runs Aug. 20 – 29, with the usual combination of fun for kids and grown-ups, 4-H and other agricultural exhibits, music, and general tom-foolery. The Fair’s Web site at marshfieldfair.org is slicker than ever, including a printable schedule so you won’t miss anything.

By mariclaire Glova, special to the clipper

It’s been a very busy summer at the Town of Duxbury’s newly

renovated and reopened Percy Walker Pool. After a year of renovations, the pool is ac-tively being enjoyed by adults, kids, and clubs alike. Life has come back to the pool with its new, bright, and inviting at-mosphere, housing everything from lap swimming, general swims, swim lessons, swim tests, swim meets, and aqua-cise classes, to birthday par-ties.

Most exciting is the pool’s reopening in time for the up-coming school year, the Percy Walker Pool is geared up to put the “pool in school” and to establish the pool as an in-tegral part of the campus here in Duxbury. As part of this, the

pool is excited to introduce its long awaited Pool After School Club. The Club is open to all third, fourth, and fifth grade Alden students as a fun, yet structured and supervised time at the pool after school. Two times will be offered for the club, 2:30-3:30 p.m. and 3:30-4:30 p.m., with desig-nated pool staff walking kids over from the Alden Lobby as well as the DSU, to the Percy Walker Pool.

Students at the Duxbury Middle School will have the opportunity to participate in the Percy Walker Pool Guard-Start program. GuardStart is an American Red Cross program aimed at providing a means for 11-14-year-olds to transi-tion from a swim lesson type program to a program which teaches leadership develop-ment, and lifeguard response

skills. The pool’s GuardStart will offer students an introduc-tion to lifeguarding in prepara-tion for lifeguard certification that can be obtained at the age of 15.

The pool is also very happy to resume the Alden fourth grade swim for all of this year’s fourth graders. The Alden fourth grade swim has been coordinated by the Al-den P.E. teachers for years as a means of offering all fourth

graders an opportunity to re-ceive swim instruction. Pro-grams such as the fourth Grade Swim along with the Percy Walker Pool’s American Red Cross programs and Pool After School Club offer opportuni-ties for our town’s youth to be prepared and enjoy the water which is such a wonderful part of their life here in Duxbury.

Question of the WeekWhy do you bring your products to the Duxbury Farmers Market?

I like being a vendor because I get to see my friends, make

new friends and gather potential clients. And the farmers market

makes us all focus on local economics.Larisa hart

by Sarie Booy

I support farmers markets in general! Since I live in Duxbury,

I want to support our local farmers market with my organic herbal and aromatherapy prod-ucts. I make them all myself!

Duxbury is a nice prosperous town and I thought it would be a good business area for our farm

products.michelle reynolds the dahlia Farm

Since we are right in the area, we should be here. Plus I like

the good music that is provided for all of us.

david Cretinon Cretinon’s Farm Stand

I like doing all the area farmers markets because I like sup-

porting the local farmers. I also use mostly local and organic

ingredients at my restaurant in Plymouth.

In Pursuit of the picturesque at the ACM

Time is limited to view American landscapes and sea-scapes at The Art Complex Museum in Duxbury by such well-known artists as Charles Burchfield, John

Enneking, George Inness, Charles Woodbury, and George Bellows. The exhibit, “In Pursuit of the Picturesque: Ameri-can Paintings of New England and New York from The Art Complex Museum Collection,” includes an early watercolor by Andrew Wyeth. It has been said that no artist’s work per-sonifies the character of New England landscape as Wyeth.

Since the 1985 exhibition of American paintings from the museum’s collection, many have been exhibited within a con-text in other exhibitions at the museum and several have been the subject of scholarly research, and included in prestigious traveling exhibitions. “In Pursuit of the Picturesque” affords an opportunity to share this research with the public, as well as to offer new analysis in terms of twenty-first century artistic perspectives. The exhibit, assembled by guest curator Nancy Grinnell, is scheduled to close Sept. 5. Also on view are “On Their Own: Robert A. St. Pierre” and “Dutch Prints.”

at the Fair’s Children’s Day, Wednesday, Aug. 25, from 12 - 4 p.m. at the music tent next to the big 4-H barn. Kids 12 and under get into the Fair for free that day. He’ll have a few spring training signings elsewhere, but The Marshfield Fair is the official book-launching, complete with readings, book signing, and plenty of copies on hand.

“Bats at the Ballgame” is set at the Marshfield Fair, and you’ll see the resemblance all around you as you flip through your copy. His earlier “Bats at the Beach” was set at Duxbury Beach. Of course, Brian’s stories and illustrations – he does both – show a little different side of reality, but you’ll get a kick out seeing the familiar in a whole new way, and so will your parents.

Parents? Brian’s books are for parents, too, and grandparents. They jump into your hand, beckon your eye, and tickle your funny bone. Grown-ups love that. The added chuckle of being “in the know” about his local scenes makes it even more fun. Parents and grandparents feel special when they’re in the know. Teachers love it, too, and Brian’s Web site at brianlies.com has teaching tips, ideas for projects in science, art, music, writing, and deep reading – the kind where a story comes to life in your questions – all geared to kids. You’ll even learn how to pronounce his last name!

I spoke to Brian a bit, and I’ll be meeting him for a real interview this week. For now, it’s enough to say that his “overnight” success, as he put it, included “a very long night.” He was captivated when, in the fifth grade, he heard writer-illustrators Harry and Wende Devlin speak at his school in Princeton, NJ. His career took some natural turns and twists along the way, but that was the time that he learned, with amazement, that you could make a living doing what he had only dreamed of: writing and drawing.

Before the Fair bats come out at night, the tom-foolery I mentioned will be well under way. The first Demolition Derby starts at 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 20, opening day, but don’t miss the ox pulling starting at 1 p.m. The real foolery starts the next day with the Cow Flap Toss (for distance and accuracy) at 5 p.m. Don’t worry. You’ll use a pitch fork, not your hands.

Tired of losing hours watching pro wrestling on TV? Tito Santana sound familiar? The War Lord? Or how about (get ready) the Iron Sheik? They and many more are scheduled to clobber one another in glorious live action Saturday, Aug. 28, at 3, 6, 7, and 9 p.m., and believe me, championships are on the line. Born Hossein Khosrow Ali Vaziri in Tehran, Iran (according to Wikipedia), the Iron Sheik held the WWF championship for about a month in 1984, until he was defeated by Hulk Hogan. I may be batty, but I don’t want to miss this, and neither does your Dad, or your Grandpa. The Iron Sheik is 67 years old, and it’s all included in your Fair admission of $10 (under 6, free), or $7 if you buy your ticket early at the Fairgrounds or online.

The C. John Corr Memorial Golf tourna-ment was a great success. Formerly the annual Kiwanis Golf Tournament spon-

sored by the Kiwanis Club of Kingston and Dux-bury, the event was renamed in honor of a long-time Treasurer and Kiwanis Community activist who passed away unexpectedly in March. Proceeds from the tournament provide scholarships, senior citi-zens’ projects and support for local food programs for those in need, among many other causes.

Billy Harris, 41, of Dux-bury proudly represented Spe-cial Olympics of Massachu-setts in tennis at the Special olympics National Games held July 17-24 in Lincoln, Neb. Billy, one of the top three seeds in the tennis competition, won the Gold Medal in Singles competition and the Bronze Medal in Doubles competition with his partner, Dan Wildrich of Newton. At the start of a week of nail biting competi-tion, Billy was chosen to play an exhibition match with Andy Roddick, currently ranked No. 1 in the U.S. Surprised by the high level of Billy’s play, Rod-dick was quoted saying, “I’m pretty excited to have the sec-ond best serve on the court.”

The University of Nebras-ka, one of the premier college sports venues in the country, hosted 3.600 athletes from 47 states, along with 1,000 coaches and official delegates. 8,500 volunteers worked to create the biggest and best Special Olympics event ever staged just for athletes from the United States.

Billy received a Silver Medal in Tennis at the Spe-cial Olympics World Sum-mer Games held in Minnesota in 1992. He also bowls and plays softball and volleyball with the South Shore Mariners Special Olympics team. He is coached by Lucy Dickman who coached the entire Mas-sachusetts Tennis delegation in Nebraska. Billy achieved his lifelong goal of winning the Gold Medal.

Billy worked hard for this event with purpose, passion

and pride. His purpose was to show the world just how good a Special Olympics athlete can be; to follow the rules of sport and accomplish great things if simply given the opportunity. His passion is represented through the determination to take all that he has learned through his intense training and to give his absolute best effort. His pride comes from knowing he has achieved his goals and brought honor to

himself, his family, and his state.

Special Olympics Mas-sachusetts offers training and competition in 27 different sports with programs offered in all seasons. Over 12,000 ath-letes compete along with 1740 Unified Partners and are sup-ported by 11,000 volunteers. For more information on local programs, contact Taffy Noth-nagle at 781-383-0895 or visit specialolympicsma.org.
