Vermont Forward-Be Smart, Be Safe in Weathersfield Vermont April 26 edition
Park and Ride Pavilion at former Romaine Tenney Farm
A pavilion and small garden have been installed at the I91 Exit 8 Park and Ride in Ascutney VT. The site is the former farm of Weathersfield farmer Romaine Tenney who resisted the progress of the interstate highway system as it crept closer to his beloved farm. The last of the Tenney maples was removed in March and the stump has been preserved.

Get Outdoors
Last week we celebrated Earth Day.
After being cooped up during this pandemic and the long winter, it's time to get outside. Mother Nature has a way of restoring our energy. I always notice how more people are smiling when the sun is out and the weather is warm.
I highly recommend this natural form of therapy for your body and soul.
And were rewarded with three loon sightings.

Last Saturday, despite the wind, the Kayak Krew paddled McDaniel's Marsh in Enfield, NH. It's a great place to watch for birds and turtles. If you're lucky the loons will show themselves too.

J&J Vaccinations Will Resume
A federal vaccine advisory panel has voted to resume Johnson & Johnson vaccinations, paving the way for Vermont to begin allowing residents to receive the shot.The CDC halted the use of Johnson & Johnson earlier this month after 15 people, of the millions of doses distributed nationwide, developed a rare blood clot complication about a week after receiving the shot.
Gov. Phil Scott estimated that Vermont could resume Johnson & Johnson vaccinations as early as Tuesday.
The recommendation from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which is run by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, would add information to official documentation about the risk of blood clots in women 18 to 49 years old.
Women in that age group appear to be at higher risk of developing the blood clot complication, previously called thrombosis. The clots identified tend to affect the brain, an unusual place for blood clots that requires specialized treatment and has led to one death.

At the moment, there are cases of B.1.1.7 in NY, MA, and CT, but none reported so far in VT, NH, or ME. Note that the CDC says their numbers are based on sampling, and so "do not represent the total number" of cases that may be arising.

Vermont to open vaccine eligibility for out-of-state college students, temporary residents
VT Digger reports that part-time Vermont residents — including college students who usually live in other states — will be allowed to register for vaccine appointments as of April 29, the health department said Wednesday. To date, only college students who are also full-time Vermont residents, or who plan to remain in the state during the summer, have been eligible to sign up for shots.
In a press release, the health department said the new guidelines are based on the state’s vaccine supply from the federal government. The April 29 date could be moved up, depending on the availability of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which was suspended last week, according to Jason Maulucci, Scott’s press secretary.

In Vermont, Isolating Inmates Kept Covid at Bay, but at a Price
The New York Times reported that the state prison system is the only one in the nation where no one has died of Covid-19. But the strict lockdowns and quarantines that slowed the virus created their own problems.
For weeks at a time, John Sughrue and other Vermont prison inmates were locked in 8½-by-10-foot cells in near-total isolation. They ate meals a few feet from their toilets, had no visitors, and spent as little as 10 minutes a day outside cells.

All Vermont Students will Eat FREE Next Year
VT Digger reports that all school-age kids in Vermont will eat for free another year, thanks to pandemic-era waivers the U.S. Department of Agriculture has opted to extend through June 2022.
That’s good news for the state’s roughly 80,000 public school students — and for its lawmakers, who now have extra time to figure out if they’re willing to pay for universal meals once the federal waivers expire.
The USDA announced the move earlier this week, but confusion remained in Vermont about what it would mean for schools. Rosie Krueger, director of child nutrition programs at the state Agency of Education, said Friday that while the state was fairly confident the federal government intended to allow schools to offer free meals for all, it was still seeking clarification about whether school districts would then be fully reimbursed by the USDA.

News About Remote Only for Next Year
At the start of the new school year this fall, only in person instruction will be offered at WS. Home Study is an option for families who follow the AOE guidelines, but a school sponsored remote option will no longer be available.
If you have children currently in Home Study and want to return to in person learning at school, please contact Laurie Brown at 674-2144, ext. 107, or at lbrown@wsesu.net so she can register your children for in person learning.
If you are currently enrolled in a remote option only and do not want to come back to in person learning, you may apply for a Home Study program with the state of Vermont and you will have to follow all of their requirements.
If your child is currently in remote only learning and you want them back in school for the fall, simply call the school to let them know.
Class lists and teacher assignments will be created in late May, so we want to make sure we know who will be returning and thus put them on a class list for the fall.
Please make sure to make this change by May 10th.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND LOVED ONES
What you can do to prevent the spread of COVID-19:
- Wear A Mask (this is not a political affiliation designation, it's a public health-your health safety measure)
- Stay 6 feet Away-assume everyone has been exposed but if you stay six feet away for under 15 minutes, you should be OK
- Avoid Crowds-the more people, the more potentially infected people you will encounter
- Wash Your Hands A LOT-remember your mom telling you this, it's a big DUH! Also try to avoid touching your face.
- Stay Home if You Are Sick-even if you only feel a little "off"
- Keep an EXPOSURE JOURNAL-when you leave your home "pod" keep track of where you go and who you saw and if you want to be proactive-how long were you with them.

NORTHERN STAGEOutdoor Courtyard Theatre
Opening the Courtyard Theater will be the irreverent romp, THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED), June 9-July 4, 2021. Written by Adam Long, Daniel Singer, and Jess Winfield, and directed by Carol Dunne, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) will feature 37 Shakespeare plays in 97 minutes...outdoors. Three madcap actors in tights weave their wicked way through all of Shakespeare’s comedies, histories, and tragedies in one wild ride that will leave audiences helpless with laughter. The Complete Works of William Shakespeare is sponsored by Stave Puzzles, hand-crafted jigsaw puzzles made in Vermont.
The outdoor summer season at the Courtyard Theater will conclude with the roof-raising musical MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET, August 11-September 12, 2021. Million Dollar Quartet takes patrons back in time to December 4, 1956, when icons Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins gathered for the first and only time at Sun Records in Memphis for what would be one of the greatest jam sessions ever. That legendary night will
come to life with a score of rock hits including “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Walk the Line,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” and “Hound Dog.”
The breathtaking pas-de-deux play HEISENBERG, February 16-March 6, 2022, will bring audiences back into the Byrne Theater for the first indoor, fully produced play since March 2020. An electric encounter between two strangers in a train station grows, over six scenes, into a complex and life-changing relationship. Written by Simon Stephens and starring Northern Stage favorite Jamie Horton, the quietly powerful Heisenberg lays bare the beauty in the natural unpredictability of human connection.
Capping off the 2021/22 season at Northern Stage will be the uproarious MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT, April 13-May 15, 2022, in the Byrne Theater. With a book & lyrics by Eric Idle and music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle, Monty Python’s Spamalot is lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The outrageous and gloriously entertaining story of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake will delight audiences as they search for the Holy Grail and “always look on the bright side of life.”

Global BIG Day May 8
Global Big Day is a celebration of birds that anyone can be a part of. During last year's Global Big Day more than 50,000 people across 175 countries collectively reported a record-setting 120,000 eBird checklists. Can we set new records this year, together? All you have to do is spend a few minutes birding on 8 May and eBird what you find.
Here are three easy ways to make the most out of your Global Big Day:
Brush up on local birds. Knowing what birds you could spot makes finding them on the big day more fun. Download the free Merlin Bird ID app and start exploring species in your area today. Merlin can also help you to identify birds on Global Big Day!
Use eBird Mobile. eBird's free app has features such as Mobile Explore and Quick Entry that make it easier to find and share the birds around you. Try eBird Mobile.
Make birding’s biggest team even bigger. Do you have a friend or loved one with a growing interest in birds? Encourage them to join the Global Big Day fun. Share your stories on social media using #GlobalBigDay.
However you choose to participate, please continue to put safety first and follow local guidelines. More Global Big Day tips and resources.
Go Questing!
Questing is a place-based education model of creating and exchanging treasure hunts in order to collect and share your community’s distinct natural and cultural heritage — your special places and stories.
Follow the clues to the treasure box.
Inside the treasure box, you will discover more information about the site, a rubber stamp, stamp pad, a sign-in field journal, and a pencil. Sign your name in the book, adding a few notes or a sketch from your walk, and collect an impression of the stamp as a memento of your journey. Then, carefully re-hide the box exactly where you found it.
If you plan to go on more than one quest, you may wish to create your own “passport book” or field journal into which you will collect your stamp impressions.
You may also wish to create your own personal stamp so that you can leave your mark in each quest’s logbook.
If you are using one of the quests found online, simply print out the clues and the map and take it along with you, otherwise bring your quest book.
Just like any outdoor activity, be prepared for changes in the weather! It is important to bring a good map. Also bring a compass, a water bottle, snacks, and wear comfortable shoes. It’s always a good idea to carry a first aid kit if you will be out in the woods.
Do consider bringing along a field guide to local plants and animals, binoculars and a hand lens for magnification, and your passport book/field journal and personal stamp.
Valley Quest is always looking volunteers to be box monitors and quest testers. Each quest treasure box is checked on a regular basis during the questing season by a volunteer box monitor. These generous, fun-loving people help keep the Valley Quest program alive and running smoothly. If you are interested in becoming a box monitor for a quest in your town, please let us know!
