Lunch time is one of the highlights of the day at Crossroads for Kids, the organization that runs summer camps for at-risk youth all through the summer. As Executive Director Deb Samuels de-scribes it, lunch used to be a chaotic time at the camp. Most of the kids are well-behaved during the day, but when 200-plus gather for lunch, it’s tough to keep things under control.

he music is blasting at lunch time in the dining hall at Camp Wing. Food is carried through

a maze of tables, but it’s hard to avoid the people dancing on the chairs and sing-ing along to the music, performing cho-reographed moves to the delight of their friends.

And that’s just the counselors.

Just look for the yellow notebook.

Dr. Benedict Tantillo, the new superintendent of schools in Duxbury, has some big ideas for the district. But when his tenure begins in earnest in September, he’ll mostly be observing, learning how the town, the students and the staff work.

Tantillo, who describes himself as a “visible superin-tendent,” will be watching and learning, all while taking notes in his omnipresent notebook. He knows he has a challeng-ing task ahead.

“My job is to take a good district and make it better,” he said.

Usually when people tell you to pound sand, it’s not a very nice thing to say.

However, for the runners in the Duxbury Beach Preser-vation Society’s inaugural 5K run on Saturday morning, it represented a challenge.

The course for the race, which raised money for the society’s storm fund, took place almost entirely on the unforgiving terrain of sand, staring in the parking lot near the Harbormaster’s shack and going all the way up to the second crossover before turn-

ing around and following the shoreline back to the starting point.

FACTORING INTO FIBROMYALGIA Chiropractors frequently treat pa-tients suffering from fibromyalgia, a common condition characterized by chronic, widespread pain and tender points in joints, muscles, ten-dons, and other soft tissues. When it comes to avoiding this condition and overcoming its painful symp-toms, maintaining a healthy weight and remaining active may help. Ac-cording to recent research involving women, being overweight or obese increases the risk of fibromyalgia, particularly among women who are not physically active. According to the study involving nearly 16,000 fi-bromyalgia-free women over a pe-riod of 11 years, overweight/obese women had a 60% to 70% higher risk of developing fibromyalgia than their normal-weight counterparts. Chiropractic treatment can play an important role in preventing and

treating fibromyalgia by getting patients up and moving. Become familiar with the benefits chiropractic techniques provide. Visit LALONDE CHIROPRACTIC SPINE CENTER OF NEW ENGLAND at 42 Tremont St., Suite 10B (Rt 3A at Rt 3). Regular chiropractic care can re-duce or eliminate many aches and pains and generates an overall feel-ing of well-being. Find fast, effective relief for whiplash and other auto ac-cident related injuries. Come in for a free consultation. Lower back and leg pain can be resolved painlessly through the gentle, non-force Cox® Technic, a non-surgical and effec-tive procedure. Call 781.934.0943 to make an appointment P.S. Chiropractic can break the vi-cious cycle of chronic pain leading to less exercise and activity, which often leads to more pain.

The public is invited to celebrate the official unveil-ing of the National Register of Historic Places plaque on the Tarkiln Twin Schoolhouses, 245 Summer St., Wednesday, Aug. 18 at 1 p.m. at Tarkiln. Please join members of the Tarkiln Committee, the Friends of Tarkiln and the Duxbury Historical Commission as we mark this important day and honor this historically impor-tant building.

The National Register is the official federal list of buildings, structures, and sites that are significant in Ameri-can history and to the history of their communities.

The Tarkiln Twin School-houses was formally elected to the National Register by the National Park Service in late 2009. The road to get a list-ing on the National Register is a lengthy one. The Duxbury

Historical Commission began the process several years ago, first applying to the Massachu-setts Historical Commission. After considering the quali-fications that make Tarkiln unique in Duxbury’s and the nation’s history, the MHC deemed the building eligible and made its recommendation to the National Park Service. Tarkiln consists of two one-room schoolhouses built in 1871 and 1908 respectively.

The two halls were joined in 1926 via a middle building containing bathrooms and a basement. Tarkiln was used as a school until 1949 when it became a youth center and fi-nally a community center.

Currently, Tarkiln is under-going a restoration project that is expected to be completed in the early fall when it will re-open to all Duxbury residents as a community center. The Recreation Department is han-dling inquiries and scheduling the renting of the building.

The National Register plaque celebration will take place at the same time as DUXFARM’s weekly Farm-er’s and Artisan’s Market. Re-freshments will be served.

The aerial spraying for mosquitoes that began last week is over, and state of-ficials are saying the spray-ing greatly reduced the bug population –– however, the threat of Eastern Equine En-cephalitis, or EEE, isn’t over and residents should still take precautions.

The Massachusetts De-partment of Public Health announced in a press release on Friday that aerial spraying reduced the overall mosquito population in southeastern Massachusetts by 80 percent and the number of mammal biting mosquitoes by 90 per-cent. Mammal-biting mos-quitoes pose the greatest risk to humans.

“Thanks to the team’s quick action, the health risk to residents of Southeastern Massachusetts has been re-duced,” said Governor Deval Patrick. “While this is en-couraging news, EEE is still a concern and residents should continue to take precautions to protect themselves and their families until mosquito season ends.”

There was one human case of EEE in Massachu-setts in 2008 and there were 13 cases with six deaths from 2004 through 2006.

As a sign that the threat is not completely over, the state declared on Sunday that the

first human case of EEE was confirmed in Rhode Island -– however, the victim is be-lieved to have picked up the disease while visiting South-eastern Massachusetts.

The patient, a male in his 20s from Newport County in Rhode Island, is listed in critical condition, according to a press release from DPH sent Sunday.

The onset of his symp-toms occurred on Aug. 5, prior to that evening’s start of aerial spraying in southeast-ern Massachusetts. Symp-toms usually present them-selves within two to 10 days of exposure. Further details on his identity are not being released due to patient pri-vacy considerations.

“While we’re encouraged by the reduced numbers that we’ve seen after spraying, we know that no mosquito control method will kill all mosquitoes,” said DPH State Epidemiologist Dr. Al De-Maria in a statement. “Peo-ple need to continue to take simple, common-sense pre-cautions to keep from getting bitten.”

More information is avail-able on the DPH Web site: mass.gov/dph. Information about West Nile Virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis is also available by calling the DPH recorded informa-tion line at 866-MASS-WNV (1-866-627-7968), or the Ep-idemiology Program at 617-983-6800.

AvOID MOSqUITO bITES

• Be aware of peak mosquito hours. The hours from dusk to dawn are peak biting times for many mosquitoes. Consider rescheduling outdoor activities that occur during evening or early morning.

• Clothing can help reduce mosquito bites. Wearing long-sleeves, long pants and socks when outdoors will help keep mosquitoes away from your skin.

• Apply insect repellent when outdoors. Use a repellent with DEET (N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide), permethrin, picaridin (KBR 3023), oil of lemon eucalyptus [p-methane 3, 8-diol (PMD)] or IR3535 according to the instructions on the product label. DEET products should not be used on infants under two months of age and should be used in concentrations of 30 percent or less on older children. Oil of lemon eucalyptus should not be used on children under three years of age.

• Drain standing water. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water. Limit the number of places around your home for mosqui-toes to breed by either draining or discarding items that hold water. Check rain gutters and drains. Empty any unused flowerpots and wading pools, and change water in birdbaths frequently.

• Install or repair screens. Keep mosquitoes outside by having tightly-fitting screens on all of your windows and doors.

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 the 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.

The Duxbury Interfaith Council is accepting new school supplies and new back-packs. Residents may drop off donations at the Duxbury Senior Center, 10 Mayflower

Street from now to Aug. 31. Drop off times are Monday, Wednesday, Thursday from 8 a.m.-4 p.m.; Tuesdays from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. and Fridays from 8 a.m.-12 noon.

Around Town Hall


One day, Camp Director Pat Cleary started to play mu-sic through two large speakers at the front of the dining hall. The kids immediately started dancing and singing along. Although Samuels concedes “there’s not a lot of etiquette being taught,” she said lunch is now one of the most looked-forward to parts of the day.

“It creates this incredible sprit of energy,” she said. “It transformed what was a chal-lenge into something that is unique to Crossroads.”

It’s an amusing sight to behold, but it also underscores Crossroads for Kids’ mis-sion: to let kids know they’re in a safe environment, and it’s OK to be themselves. ‘Like a family’

Deonte, 10, has been com-ing to Crossroads for years. His mother was actually a camper years ago, heading down to Duxbury with a cousin that wanted to attend but was too nervous to go by herself. The cousin eventually went home, but Deonte’s mother stayed and fell in love with the rural setting. Both Deonte and his older brother, Khamari, 13, are repeat campers.

The big attraction for De-onte, who is from Dorchester but attends school in Marble-head through the METCO pro-gram, is how comfortable he is at Camp Wing.

“I like how safe an envi-ronment it is,” he said. He also

feels that since many counsel-ors were campers themselves it helps establish a bond.

“If you’re in a struggle they’ll help you understand why,” he said.

Khamari feels the same way about the camp’s staff.

“As you get to know ev-eryone ... you get to grow like a family,” he said.

Of course, the idyllic set-ting of Camp Wing, 100 acres of forest, playing fields, ponds and nature trails off Keene Street, helps draw the normal-ly city-dwelling children back year after year.

“I don’t have a climbing wall in my backyard,” points out Khamari.

Deonte and Zoie, 11, are members of the Camper Continuity Initiative, a four-year program that extends the Crossroads experience year round with things like retreats and camping trips.

“It’s like a year-round Camp Wing,” Deonte said.

Samuels said the CCI pro-gram is designed to help nur-ture the younger campers into Crossroads’ teen leadership program, called C5.

“We’re learning to be role models to other kids,” said Zoie.

Crossroads’ goal is to keep the campers, who can start coming to camp as early as age seven, in the fold and in C5. The kids in C5 have a 100 percent graduation rate, Samu-els said, and 95 percent go to college.

“It’s all about chang-

ing the odds,” she said. Summer days in Duxbury

Deonte and Khamari stay in the boys’ section of the camp, a loose collection of cabins near the camp’s entrance that’s separated into a junior (ages 7-10, denoted by the red doors on the cabins) and senior (11 and up, marked by green cab-in doors) area. There are two staff members and 8-9 partici-pants to a cabin, and the camp-ers do most of their activities in a team with the cabin mates. For example, Deonte’s cabin, Olympus, will travel to activi-ties and meals together, and they are also responsible for cleaning the bathroom. This is done every morning as part of “community service” time.

The female campers stay across the Camp Wing proper-ty in a reproduction of a colo-nial fort called “the Stockade.” Camp Wing was originally two separate entities, Camp Wing and the Duxbury Stock-age. The legend is, as Samuels tells it, that there are no nails in any of the stockade’s large timbers, it’s all built using pe-riod construction techniques.

A typical campers’ day be-gins with community service, which can be anything from cleaning the bathroom to pick-ing up around the cabin area, and throughout the day the kids participate in various sports and games, or swimming at the camp’s two pools. There’s an Outward Bound-esque ropes course, where campers learn teamwork and how to trust each other, and there is also boating on the small lake behind the dining hall.

After dinner, there is “pro-gram time,” where the camp-ers learn arts and crafts or try their hands at performing arts like music and drama. Cross-roads has partnerships with the Duxbury Bar Maritime School, which runs a sailing program, and the Art Complex Museum, and this year they are working

with South Shore Conserva-tory on music lessons.

While the campers do ev-erything in their teams, much of the day is unstructured by design.

“The great thing about overnight camp is there’s no urgency,” said Samuels. “We’re not trying to squeeze a million things into a day.”

One of the favorites at Camp Wing is “whoop-de-do,” where campers are free to choose their own activities.

Each day has a holiday theme, and these can range from Valentine’s Day to Chi-nese New Year to Internation-al Talk Like a Pirate Day. The decorations from each theme are left up in the dining hall, so by the end of the summer, it’s quite a visual scene.

Camp Wing has three ses-

sions, two for 20 days and one for 14 days. Campers are usu-ally encouraged to sign up for two sessions, but some camp-ers stay all summer, like Tyni-gel, 12. Tynigel was originally worried he’d be bored camp-ing in Duxbury, but has fallen in love with camp.

“I’m just being 12 and having fun,” he said. Encouraging young leaders

Crossroads for Kids was founded in 1936 by Arthur Taylor Burger, executive di-rector of Boys Clubs of Bos-ton, and other Boys Clubs Trustees and prominent busi-ness men under the name Boys and Girls Camps. The goal was to provide children liv-ing in the Boston Metro area with the opportunity to enjoy a camp experience and the as-sociated benefits and character

they believe in themselves.” –– Deb Samuels, Executive Director

development of an intentional residential camp experience, according to the group’s Web site. This year is the 75th an-niversary of Crossroads.

Camp Wing hosts about 220 kids in their overnight program. (They have a sepa-rate day camp that includes about 200 kids, mostly from Duxbury and local towns.) About 60 percent of the kids come from Boston, specifical-ly Dorchester, but they come from as far away as Brockton, Medford, Cambridge, Quincy, Plymouth. Many of the camp-ers are referred from schools, or social agencies.

There are also two other camps run by Crossroads, Camp Mitton in Brewster, which has a smaller group of campers and caters to students who need more one-on-one attention, and Camp Lapham in Ashby, where the initiative runs its teen leadership pro-gram.

Khamari is in the leader-ship program while still a se-nior camper at Camp Wing. He’s currently working on a recycling project.

“We do our own projects,” he said. “You get to set your own goals for the future ... It teaches you to be a good lead-er and how to prepare yourself for the world.”

Fidelis, 18, was a camper with Crossroads and is now a counselor after going through C5. He said the counselors he camped with inspired him to give back to the organization.

“Going through the teen program, the way counselors treated me, I wanted to treat kids the same way,” he said. “After a few days you say, ‘I can trust this person.’”

Fidelis is headed to the Art Institute after high school, something he said he’s not sure would have happened without Crossroads.

“C5 helps you grow up,” he said. From survival to success

At the end of the summer, a visitor to Camp Wing might only see children having fun, splashing in the pool or play-ing soccer in the fields, and

forget the reason many of the campers are there. Samuels said that the backgrounds of the campers run the gamut from those whose challenges are merely financial (the camp asks for a family contribution but will not turn kids away) to those who come from troubled homes or who deal with dif-ficult situations like gang vio-lence.

“It’s definitely not a quick fix,” she said. “When they come here a lot of them are so shut down they’re in survival mode.”

However, after a few days, she sees most of the campers open up when they begin to re-alize they are in a safe place.

“It’s a completely differ-ent environment; they don’t have to protect themselves anymore,” she said. “They are confident, they believe in themselves.”

The attitude of the adults at Camp Wing is that of respect for the campers. Rather than treating them like military ca-dets, shuffling groups from ac-tivity to activity in an overly-structured setting, counselors rely on the campers themselves to provide leadership.

“We start with high expec-

tations,” Samuels said. “It’s all part of building that sense of respect and self-management ... It’s a long term impact and it’s transformational.”

The fact that most camp-ers come back year after year, and many return as counsel-ors, helps the young men and women know that they have support.

“When they’re facing a tough moment nine times out of 10 we’re going to be the ones they call,” Samuels said.

Fidelis summed up the impact Crossroads has had on him in one simple sentence: “It becomes your whole life.”

Beyond fried doughBy miChelle Conway, Clipper Columnist

[email protected]

I visited the Marshfield Fair last year and wrote about the great food to be found. This year my deadlines don’t align with a trip to the fair, so I am rerunning last

year’s article in the hopes that it will inspire you to seek out the delicious and unexpected foods. Enjoy!

A meal at the Marshfield Fair typically includes a slice of pizza, a hot dog or a piece of sugary fried dough. But there are a surprising number of vendors making unique and delicious artisan foods. The siren call of the flashy sausage and pepper booths overshadow the humbler stands of these passionate cooks, but there they are - kettles and pans brimming with unexpected delights.

While it is sometimes intimidating to consider eating at a fair stand, it is comforting to know that each and every booth is inspected by the local health inspector and must pass a long list of requirements covering food preparation, storage and cleanliness. The artisan stands sparkle with the pride of ownership and the person serving your food is likely to be the one who created the recipe, sourced the ingredients and prepared the dishes.

A quick survey of the food trail reveals lobster rolls, grilled swordfish, fresh fruit smoothies, and chocolate dipped marshmallows interspersed amongst the traditional fare. The artisan food booths are simple and understated and might be easy to overlook, but slow down, take a look and step up to the booth; each owner has a story to tell and delicious food to sell.

The gentleman at Rene’s Kitchen sells meatballs and ziti in “Angelina’s Sauce”; Angelina is the owner’s grandmother; she taught him the old world way to make meatballs. He is there every day dishing out her red sauce with hand rolled pork and beef meatballs with a hint of Parmigiano Regianno and fresh herbs. The meatballs are slow simmered for eight hours in Angelina’s sauce and served with ziti or in a sub roll. He also sells homemade shrimp fritters and cold brewed iced coffee- perfect for a hot summer day.

Seek out the simple booth with a handmade wooden sign declaring “Falafel” and you will be warmly welcomed by a Middle Eastern family making superb Falafel and deeply satisfying Turkish coffee. Falafel is a seasoned fritter made with chick peas and a heady combination of Middle Eastern spices such as baharat, cumin and paprika. These little nuggets of flavor are offered along with hummus, grape leaves and pita bread. This delightful family is travelling the country bringing homemade Middle Eastern food and a warm family welcome with them.

Children and the young at heart will delight in stopping by the mini-donut booth where a father and son team drop donut dough into an entertaining conveyor belt fryolator and create light fluffy mini donuts on the spot. Each bag of six mini donuts is created to order, shaken with just the right amount of sugar and cinnamon and handed over with a well-deserved warning of caution; freshly cooked donuts are hot. But part of the fun is bravely popping them into your mouth while they are still full of fresh cooked goodness

Local food providers are also well represented at the Marshfield Fair. Natural and Organic Meats of Middleboro offer a wild-ride of organically raised bison burgers, sausages and ostrich patties in their booth. Trying his food is a carnival ride for the taste buds; the anticipation is the tricky part, eating the ostrich is a taste sensation and telling your friends about it later is all part of the fair experience.

Egypt Country Store in Scituate has two booths located diagonally across from one another. Known for their fudge, they offer twenty-seven tasty varieties ranging from classic chocolate to creamsicle, Oreo cookie, mint chocolate (a personal fave), mocha and well ... five down, twenty-two to go! Stroll across the path for fruit smoothies, Richardson Dairy ice cream and more.

The Marshfield Fair opens Aug. 20. For information about the fair, hours, and admission fees visit Marshfieldfair.org.

The Duxbury Animal Shelter is hoping to reunite these strays with their owners. The black kitty (left) was found on Union Road, in the 400s. He is an older neutered male with a small white spot on his chest, gold eyes and somewhat tattered ears. He is very vocal and sweet. His meow sounds like a Siamese. The grey and white kitty (right) is younger, approximately a year or so and is not neutered. He was found near Cross Creek off Congress Street near the police station. If these cats look familiar, please contact Eddy Ramos at the Duxbury Animal Shelter at 781-934-6424.

The Helen Bumpus Gal-lery will be presenting an ex-hibit titled “Into the Garden” by Duxbury artist Alison Da-vidson during the months of September and October. Fo-cusing primarily although not exclusively on floral images, her watercolors have been ex-hibited throughout the South Shore and Cape Cod and have received numerous awards, including the Best in Show at the Duxbury Art Association’s Midsummer Exhibit in 2008. She attended the New England School of Art and Design and continued her studies by at-tending workshops with sev-eral well-known artists.

A reception to meet the art-ist will be held at the Gallery on Saturday, Sept. 18, from 2 to 4 p.m. Complimentary re-

freshments will be served and all are invited to attend.

The Helen Bumpus Gal-lery is located on the main

level of the Duxbury Free Li-brary, 77 Alden St. The exhibit may be viewed during regular library hours.

dent Susan Skeiber. He started on Aug. 2. Before coming to Duxbury, he was the superin-tendent of the Pascack Valley Regional High School District in New Jersey.

He was one of three can-didates interviewed by the School Committee earlier this year. During his interview, he talked about a one-student, one-laptop program he pio-neered at Pascack, and tech-nology remains a big part of his vision as a superintendent.

“My interaction with tech-nology goes back a long way,” Tantillo said.

When he was in college, part of his work study involved working in a computer lab.

“I saw some of the things you could do with it even back then,” he said.

In the early 90s, he was introduced to Gopher, an ear-ly version of the World Wide Web, and was hooked. He got on a listserv with other admin-istrators around the world and began sharing ideas, from mun-dane things like how to combat smoking in the bathroom, to larger educational concepts.

“Even then you could see the benefits for education, hav-ing that information at your fingertips and being able to manipulate it and teach with it,” he said.

While still a principal, he saw a presentation using graphing calculators and con-vinced his school committee to purchase one for every student. As superintendent, when he heard about the state of Maine issuing laptops to every mid-dle school student, he thought –– why not here?

Pascack was able to fund the laptop program, as well as make the school buildings wireless, during a major reno-vation project. But for Tantillo, technology in education isn’t just about the flashy gizmos.

“You have to get beyond using technology just for the sake of using technology,” he said. “It’s got to be just like a notebook or a pencil. It’s got to be a tool for learning.”

The term 21st century skills has become a major buzzword for educational professionals these day. For Tantillo, such skills are all about practicality, taking skills from the class-room and applying them to the real world.

“The technology opens up real life experiences,” he said. “The real world doesn’t oper-ate in a vacuum. Math isn’t separated from sociology.”

Tantillo said that while speaking at an Apple confer-ence in California, he no-ticed that most of the younger people presenting worked in groups, or “pods.” He sees the work world becoming more and more collaborative.

“Teaching has changed that way too,” he said. “Teachers are collaborating more because of technology ... Any lesson

you want to see, you can find on Teachertube or Youtube.”

In fact, Tantillo sees the role of the teacher in the class-room changing because of ad-vances in technology and the access to information.

“The role of the teacher is changing because the teacher doesn’t have to be the one with all the information anymore,” he said.

It’s the job of the teacher to direct the search for knowl-edge and to steer their pupils in the right direction, he said.

“The teacher conversely becomes more important with the use of technology because they have to direct the learning in a meaningful way,” he said. “[Students] have to be able to weed through it, and that’s where the teaching comes in.”

Of course, technology isn’t the only subject Tantillo has on his yellow notepad as he’s looking at the future of the Duxbury schools.

“Foremost is the facilities, there’s no question about it,” he said. “I was surprised that a district with the stature of Dux-bury has left the buildings in the condition that they’re in.”

Tantillo knows convincing Duxbury voters to support new school buildings won’t be an easy task, and believes com-munication is the key to mov-ing the projects forward.

“I think we have to educate the public,” he said. “There’s money from the state out there that probably won’t be avail-able in the future. It’s very dif-ficult to pass up an opportunity like this.”

He supports the idea of a combined high school and middle school because of the opportunity to reduce costs. Tantillo has taught at a com-bined facility before, and said the only areas that are shared by the two age groups are the cafeteria, gym and library.

“You’re not going to mix high school kids and middle school kids, that’s not going to happen,” he said.

Tantillo says he’s not a mi-cromanager, but he will hold himself and others around him to a high standard.

“I’m very demanding and I have high expectations of everyone else that works here and our students. I hold peo-

ple accountable,” he said. “If people need a pat on the back they’re going to get a pat on the back. If people need to pull their weight then they’re go-ing to find out they need to pull their weight.”

While he does have some strong ideas he wants to bring to Duxbury, Tantillo says he’ll weigh everything against what’s best for the students in his charge.

“Whatever is best for the kids in our school, no matter what anyone else says, I’m go-ing to follow,” he said. “That’s my creed basically, what’s best for the kids ... As long as I feel I can follow that I can sleep at night.”

Girl Scout newsA Sweet Surprise: Last Tuesday three members of Cadette

Troop 80331 paid a visit to the residents of Duxborough Vil-lage and presented each resident with a box of Girl Scout cook-ies. The Girl Scout Council of Eastern Massachusetts offered 30 cases of cookies to any Service Unit which would agree to distribute them to those whom the members felt would enjoy a special treat. The Duxbury Service Unit accepted the cookies and donated them to the Carolina Hill Shelter, the Senior Center and then decided to distribute the last five cases to the residents of Duxborough Village. The girls were greeted by some very happy men and women as they made their rounds. The girls are very grateful to the custodian, Ron, who accompanied them and provided access to each building.

Hoping to Become a Duxbury Girl Scout: If you missed spring registration, be sure to watch the Clipper for an upcoming registration this fall. Our program is open to all girls in kinder-garten through grade 12 and includes a wide variety of troop ac-tivities from skiing to attending a play, and many opportunities to participate in community service projects. The cookout on the beach and our Sweetheart Dance are always favorites as are Disco Bowling and Pool Party. With school scheduled to start in two short weeks, troops will soon be up and running, but it is not too late to join. For more information on the organiza-tion or to register now, please contact Noreen Roy at 603-361-6406 or by e-mail at [email protected].

Tammy Kirk, who was co-chairwoman of the race com-mittee, said that there were bins specifically set up for runners to throw their shoes in once they hit the soft beach sand.

“We’ll see how many run-ners come in barefoot,” she said after the pack left the starting line.

The turnout was good for the first race, and 150 runners competed on a beautiful Au-gust morning.

After the race was the Preservation Society’s annual beach party, which this year featured a steel drum band.

The money raised by the 5K will be used to stock the beach storm damage fund.

“It’s money we try to put aside in case we have a bad storm,” said the society’s Maggie Kearney. “And we are thinking we’re overdue.”

Kearney said the last ma-jor storm to severely damage the beach was in 1991. Al-though the beach should be el-igible for federal money when that happens, the last time the beach was damaged for about half a million dollars, FEMA turned Duxbury down.

“Our claim is Duxbury Beach protects the shoreline of Duxbury and Kingston,” Kearney said.

The Public Safety Build-ing Feasibility Study Com-mittee continues to push for-ward on plans for new public safety facilities in town, amid several defeats at the ballot box and the looming specter of new school buildings.

Voters at Town Meet-ing this March approved $292,000 in design fees for a renovation project at the town’s main fire station on Tremont Street. This was af-ter a plan to build two new facilities, a fire station and police station, failed to pass voters’ muster and a scaled-down renovation project (construction money rather than just design) passed Town Meeting but failed at the polls.

Committee Chairman Andre Martecchini said the group finalized a contract with The Carell Group, Inc. to come up with the plans, at a cost of $269,000.

“We felt they had done a good job and ... they under-stood what we were all about, we didn’t have to start over with another firm,” he said.

Some money has been left on the table for contingencies and legal fees, he added.

He said the current de-sign plans are similar to the concept presented at town meeting –– the existing crew quarters near Mayflower Street will be demolished and rebuilt –– with one ex-ception. Rather than extend the existing equipment bays 20 feet, garage space will be created in the new crew quar-ters wing.

Martecchini said this will be less of a disruption to the

firefighters. Expanding the bays would have temporarily restricted access for trucks and other equipment.

“It’s easier to build – and easier translates to cheaper – everything off to the side,” he said.

Things like the depart-ment’s boat and dive truck, which are not often used and stored in the middle of the apparatus bay where it can be difficult to extricate them, can be stored in the new ga-rage for easier access.

In the meantime, Fire Chief Kevin Nord says he continues to struggle with maintenance issues in the Tremont Street station.

“The roof continues to leak,” he said, noting the kitchen and basement suffer from occasional floods. The building’s water heater and air conditioning also failed this summer, forcing depart-ment personnel to resort to window units.

Town Meeting voters in March also approved $30,000 for site testing in order to find a suitable location for a new police station. Nord said the group is considering the current site, land next to the dump on Mayflower Street, and a parcel on High Street.

The current plan is to come to the 2011 Town Meeting with a plan in hand for the fire station renovation to ask voters for construction funds. At the same meeting, the group will also seek de-sign fees for the police station once a location is settled.

“It’s lagging a year be-hind,” Nord said of the police station project.

Looming behind all the work the public safety com-

mittee is doing is an inevi-table push for new school buildings. The state School Building Authority recently approved Duxbury for a fea-sibility study and will look at the middle school and high school.

“There’s a lot of con-cern,” Nord said. “We want to get these projects to Town Meeting and approved be-fore the schools comes through. We’re trying to plan it accordingly and work with these other groups.”

Martecchini feels voters know the school projects are waiting in the wings.

“People are going to have to make a choice,” he said. “There’s nothing we can do if people don’t want to spend the money ... as much as we think it’s important to do this project, if people don’t see it that way, we’ll just have to limp along.”

An updated Duxbury Pub-lic Schools Family Directory will be published this fall by the Alden PTA. Along with family address and phone num-ber, the new directory will in-clude student graduation dates, K-5 class lists, the Duxbury Schools 2010-2011 calendar, and useful community phone numbers. The directory is $12 if pre-ordered using the form attached to student placement letters ($15 when they arrive in November).

The information used for this directory will be what is currently on file with the Dux-bury Public Schools database. If you have any family changes or concerns, contact the respec-tive school for each of your students: DHS 934-7650; DMS 934-7640; Alden 934-7630; or Chandler 934-7680, or via e-mail below.

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.

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 as-pects 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 Se-ries for Families.

A jewel in the woods at

Camp WingDuxbury residents probably don’t know much

about what they do at Crossroads for Kids, deep in the woods off Keene Street at Camp Wing.

Maybe some locals have attended Crossroad’s day camp program, but it is with the overnight campers that this organization does its real heavy lifting.

Crossroads brings kids to Duxbury from urban areas like Boston, Brockton, Dorchester and Plymouth. Part of the appeal of the camp is, of course, the natural beauty of Camp Wing. With wide open fields, an idyllic pond, a rope climbing course and two swimming pools, the camp aims to give inner-city kids a glimpse of rural Duxbury at its best.

But that’s just the surface of what Crossroads for Kids offers these young men and women. While some of the kids who come to Crossroads are merely in a difficult financial situation, some come from troubled homes, or come to escape gang violence in their neighborhoods.

Crossroads does a great job encouraging the kids to police themselves, to develop as leaders of themselves and their peers. The fact that many of the campers return year after year also says a lot about the values being instilled in the woods of Camp Wing. As one young man, now attending college after coming up through Crossroads, put it: “This place becomes your whole life.”

The beauty of Crossroad’s mission can be seen in the jubilation and cutting-loose the kids and their counselors participate in during lunch. This is not a militarized boot camp, with the goal of beating the bad out of these kids using an overabundance of discipline. Crossroads’ take? Let the kids be kids. Let them be themselves.

And it works. Executive Director Deb Samuels said that kids step off the bus at the beginning of the summer with their emotional armor on. But in a few short days, they realize Camp Wing is a safe place, and they can simply be themselves and have fun. And that’s a right that should be inherent in every childhood.

–– J. Graeber

The Local Housing Partnership would like to acknowl-

edge and thank both the Zon-ing Board of Appeals and the Board of Selectmen for their efforts in regard to the Island Creek project.

As many may remember, the town hired a housing con-sultant to evaluate the town’s affordable housing needs and make suggestions as to how to proceed. That work resulted in a document called a planned production plan which was supported by both the Plan-ning Board and the Board of Selectmen. Contained in that document was the Island Creek expansion among many other strategies to be pursued over time.

After much deliberation and discussion Island Creek was contacted by the Board of Selectmen to consider expand-ing their development. Thus the application to the Zoning Board of Appeals for a 40B project for Island Creek North was met with support throughout the community.

As one who sat through most of the deliberations of the

Zoning Board of Appeals, I can attest personally to their hard work and the detail that this board poured over for months on end. It is no easy task to re-view the in-depth documents that were presented to this Board.

The chairman kept a very orderly list of issues at each meeting that were negotiated with the developer, which re-flects the enormous amount of time spent working for the good of Duxbury.

The Local Housing Part-nership is pleased to see a completed and final permit ap-proved. This will eventually result in maintaining the af-fordable housing units already existing at Island Creek which were about to expire. Look-ing forward to the completion of the project will provide op-portunities for housing for the community as people may wish to downsize or return to Dux-bury.

Depending on what hap-pens to the 40B vote in Novem-ber, Duxbury will, with the ad-dition of this development, now reach higher in our 10 percent Subsidized Housing Inventory

(SHI) goal as currently required by the State. Duxbury’s present standing on the SHI is just over 3 percent of affordable housing stock and with the addition of Island Creek at its completion, we will reach just over 8 per-cent. All of this would not be possible without the support of the community at large for its continuing support and votes at Town Meeting which give the Local Housing Partnership the tools necessary to encourage good development in Duxbury to meet the housing needs of the community at large.

Again thank you to the Zoning Board of Appeals for its hard work and that of the Board of Selectmen in resolv-ing the outstanding issues. A job well done by the Zoning Board of Appeals, the Board of Selectmen, town counsel, town manager and a substantial cost savings for the taxpayers of Duxbury through the avoidance of litigation at the Housing Ap-peals Court.

Diane Bartlett Chairwoman

Local Housing Partnership

Thanks for hard work on Island Creek ———

[Editor’s note: This letter was originally sent to Duxbury Fire Chief Kevin Nord.]

Dear Chief Nord: Now that the dust has settled and we

can count our blessings, I feel it’s very important not to over-look or let such a tremendous and professional effort by the responding Duxbury Fire De-partment go unnoticed. On Saturday, July 31, at approxi-mately 7:32 p.m. our fire alarm company notified us that the Duxbury Fire Department was dispatched to our home at 41 Gurnet Road. As we were not home at the time, the end result was not only did you save our only home from a potential and total disaster, but most impor-tantly was getting our “Little Guys” out safely.

Susan and I have always had a special spot in our hearts

for firefighters who we consid-er to be a very special breed of people. Although we have been fortunate enough throughout our entire lives to never have had an encounter with firefight-ers, on that evening not only did you reinforce and strength-en our opinion, but we have reached an even higher level of respect, if that’s possible.

The rapid, timely and de-termined response, in combi-nation with the level of profes-sionalism, dedication, courtesy, concern and attitude was clear-ly second to none. I learned a new phrase that evening when I was told the building was “ful-ly charged.” As I didn’t quite understand what it meant, al-though I do now, you did every-thing in your power to prevent the situation from reaching a new level that could have been a complete and “total catastro-

phe.” In fact you respected our property as if it were yours.

We have always considered firefighters to be under-rated and we thought that after Sept. 11, 2001, that the credit and re-spect for the very serious, hard and dangerous work firefighters must do was finally recognized. It wasn’t until it impacted us that we realized how very im-portant and special people fire-fighters are.

We realize not all Firefight-ers can respond to every call, so to each and every individual on the Duxbury Fire Department, from the bottom of our hearts, my wife Susan and I, as well as our “Little Guys,” Miss Abby, Webster, Spanky and Tucker, although it is not enough, we all want to say, “Thank You.”

Thanks for response to fire ———————

We have been en-joying driving out on Duxbury

Beach with our children for seven years now. We always think of Duxbury Beach peo-ple as being patient and toler-ant of each other. It is obvious to anyone who frequents the beach that it is a necessity for everyone to coexist in what can be a crowded and busy place. We had the misfortune this year of having three sep-arate incidents where other beachgoers were ignorant and confronted us about senseless

concerns in regards to their space. In all three occasions people displayed a complete lack of respect for their fellow neighbors. If a Nerf football accidentally hitting your car or

kids playing in the general vi-cinity of where you are sitting annoys you it is obvious you don’t belong out on the beach.

Beach behavior not so bad ————————

Too long a wait —————

I, too, am pleased that Island Creek North will soon become a reality. However, there are still two nagging issues that concern me. Why was the gestation period so long and the

labor so difficult it had to come cesarean and not naturally?Bill Campbell

signatures, Maryanne Lewis of Scituate, Massachusetts, announced this week her in-tention to enter the race for the 10th Congressional District. Lewis will run as an Indepen-dent candidate.

“It is time for a new direc-tion for our country,” Lewis said. “As an Independent voice in Washington, I will bring a balanced, common sense ap-proach to a political environ-ment that is often rendered in-effective by our current system. The people of the 10th District – indeed, Americans all across the country – are facing seri-ous challenges in almost every area of their lives. Many are out of work or in fear of los-ing their jobs. Millions have lost their homes or are in fore-closure. Healthcare costs are crippling small business own-

ers and stunting the growth so desperately needed in order to kick-start the economy.”

Lewis states she is running as an Independent because she feels the traditional Democrat-ic and Republican platforms have strayed from their roots, resulting in more harm than good for the American people.

“George Washington propheti-cally stated in his farewell address to the nation that our country cannot sustain a two party system,” Lewis says. “And at times, I’m not even sure it’s a two party system at all. Whatever it is, it is sorely lacking in common sense.”

Lewis brings with her a strong foundation of both public and private sector ex-perience. She is a daughter, a mother to two teenage sons, a businesswoman, wife and vol-unteer. She formerly served as a prosecutor and as State Representative of the Eleventh Norfolk District.

Lewis will hold a kick-off fundraiser on Thursday, Aug. 26, 7-10 p.m. at the Indian Pond Country Club in Kings-ton. For more information visit maryannelewiscongress.com

Rob O’Leary, the Cape & Islands State Senator and Professor of History at Mass Maritime, is running in the Democratic Primary on Sept. 14 for the open congressional seat vacated by Bill Delahunt.

Rob has been a state sena-tor since 2000, and has been a leader in a number of areas, particularly on issues that af-fect education and the envi-ronment. As chairman of the Senate Education Committee, he played a leading role in get-ting the 2010 Education Bill passed. This legislation makes Massachusetts eligible to compete for the “Race To The Top” federal funds for educa-tion. Over the next few years, this could mean an infusion of $288 million dollars to our lo-cal public schools.

Rob also played a lead-ership role in writing and sponsoring the Oceans Man-agement Act, the first such legislation in the country. It protects the public interest in the development of our coastal waters and has become a mod-el for similar planning at the national level by the Obama administration.

If elected, he will work for the earliest possible with-drawal of our troops from Af-ghanistan and the redirecting of our resources to reduce the deficit and support the creation of jobs here at home.

Nancy Melia, a resident of Duxbury for 30 years, is Rob’s sister and serves as treasurer of his campaign.

A reception to introduce the candidate to Duxbury vot-ers is planned for Wednesday,

Sept. 1, 7-8:30 p.m. at the Win-sor House. Cash bar, coffee and dessert. All are welcome.

The Josh Cutler campaign is seeking interested high school or college students to serve as interns. This is a great opportunity to learn about pub-lic policy issues and political campaigns at the local level.

“Since this is a grass-roots

effort our interns get a chance to learn about all aspects of a campaign, from field op-erations and event planning to media strategy and issue development,” said Cutler, a Democrat who is running for state representative.

Cutler, 39, is a former se-lectman, legislative aide and newspaper editor. He currently serves on the Duxbury Plan-ning Board. For more infor-mation visit joshcutler.com or email intern@joshcutler.

The Klingenstein Center for Independent School Lead-ership has awarded Kevin Clark, Bay Farm Montessori Academy’s head of school, a fully-funded fellowship to the January 2011 Heads of School Program. Located at Teach-ers College, Columbia Uni-versity, the prestigious Klin-genstein Center is dedicated to improving the quality of independent school education by developing and strengthen-ing leadership among teachers and administrators. This dis-tinguished award provides full tuition and room and board.

The Klingenstein Center attracts and selects educators who have demonstrated out-standing accomplishments or potential for excellence. Clark is one of only 20 heads of school selected from a pool of national and international ap-plicants to participate in this annual program. He will be-

come part of a distinguished group of nearly 200 school heads who have previously participated in the program. Clark will spend two weeks at the Center at Columbia Uni-versity in early 2011 at The Heads of Schools Program, which provides the resources and opportunities for profes-sional renewal, enrichment, and reflection. The participants will engage in intensive study

to examine educational issues and policies facing indepen-dent school educators.

“We are proud to congrat-ulate Kevin for being awarded this elite fellowship,” said Hauke Kite-Powell, president of Bay Farm’s Board of Trust-ees. “Kevin has done some outstanding work at Bay Farm Montessori Academy and has a long and promising career ahead of him, so he is an ideal candidate for the Klingenstein Center’s Heads of School Pro-gram. They clearly understand his commitment to advancing education programs that excite students and empower teach-ers.”

There are older claims on the phrase, but I like Sir Malcolm Bradbury’s theft

of the idea in his comic 1959 novel, “Eating People is Wrong”: “Genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains.” Duxbury’s Brian Lies takes pains to produce his children’s books. His latest, “Bats at the Ballgame,” has its official rollout at the Marshfield Fair Wednesday, Aug. 25 from noon to

4 p.m., over by the 4-H barn. That’s Children’s Day, so kids 12 and under get in for free.

Brian and his work live in a world of memories – beautiful, sad, hilarious,

and sweet. He said the same about baseball. No other sport, no other places, no other people seem to reach through generations quite like baseball reaches us. My dad’s Great Depression stories about playing ball with a knot of rags came to mind, as did my brother bravely pitching to me to teach me how to time my swing. My mother took me to my first Major League game when I was six – the Yankees at Kansas City, home of the Athletics. No

From Monday, Aug, 9 to Wednesday, Aug. 14,, Team Attitude Project from Dux-bury Bay Maritime School raced in the 8th Annual CJ Buckley Memorial Regatta in East Greenwich, R.I. The CJ Buckley Memorial Re-gatta was established in 2003 to commemorate teenage CJ Buckley’s life and passion for sailing. CJ Buckley was an enthusiastic sailor and team racer who passed away in December 2002, the victim of brain cancer. CJ’s friends and family created this event to provide young sailors the opportunity to develop their skills and enjoy themselves on the water as CJ did. Fur-thermore, this regatta raises money for scholarships so that new sailors can participate in

CJ’s favorite sport. This ever-growing re-

gatta garnered further support and participants as it served this year as the National Ju-nior 420 Team Race Regatta. Team Attitude Project sailors, Allison Shane, Liz Runci, Aidan DiPrima, Ian Grant, Hanno Kite-Powell and Em-ily Pittman, were one of 32 teams who came to partici-pate in the world’s largest 420 team racing event. Over 200 sailors congregated off the beach at Goddard Park from as far as California, Virginia, St. Thomas and Bermuda, as well as various locations around Massachusetts, in-cluding Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, Boston and Cape Cod.

For the three highly antic-ipated days of racing, winds began light and built over the course of the day each day, as did the competition. A total of 96 boats were divided for the racing into four brackets of eight teams based on their re-sults. Coached by MIT college sailor and former Duxbury High School sailing team cap-tain Andrew Sommer, Team Attitude Project represented DBMS strongly, reaching the final four of their bracket and placing 12th overall. This is the first year a DBMS team has raced in the event, and At-titude Project team members reflected that on the regatta as a fun, learning experience. Also racing from Duxbury were Alec Stewart and Bren-dan Keohan for Wianno Yacht Club and Sean Golden for Ta-bor Academy.

foul balls came our way, but I had my glove, just in case, and my Yankees uniform. We were New Yorkers in those days.

I told Brian the baseball advice that my friend Bill the Bagger once gave me, and I share again here: “When you take your daughter to Fenway for the first time, walk ahead of her just before she steps out of the tunnel,” he said. “Look back, so you can see her face when she sees Fenway for the first time. It only happens once.”

It gave him chills.Brian’s father-in-law figures prominently in the book.

You can’t miss him, the patient, stoic fan contemplating the prospect of yet another heartbreaking loss. He lifts his spirits, and his grandchild’s, by sharing baseball tales of Grandbats and Great-grandbats past, heroic moments and sad good-byes that echo “through the years, across eternal grass.” Sam Keith, Brian writes in his dedication, “… missed seeing his team take the Series – but never stopped believing.”

Sam was a writer, too. His best known work was “One Man’s Wilderness – An Alaskan Odyssey,” based on the journals and photographs of Richard Proenneke. The Duxbury Free Library has three copies, including an oversized print version if you’ve joined the Grandbat ranks and prefer a little extra ink on the page.

From his home town of Princeton, NJ, Brian set off for Brown University some years back to become a psychologist. He discovered that he had considerably more fun, and some success, penning political cartoons for the student newspaper. He enrolled in the Boston Museum School at the Museum of Fine Arts where he studied for two years. Before he earned his second and unnecessary Bachelor’s degree, Brian was a working illustrator in the pages of the Boston Globe and the Christian Science Monitor.

In 1989, a chance meeting with Susan Sherman, the art director at Houghton Mifflin, led to his first children’s book illustration, Eth Clifford’s Flatfoot Fox and the Case of the Missing Eye, followed by a score of other children’s books. Thus, his overnight success with the 2006 Bats at the Beach came after, as Brian put it, “a very long night.”

“I agree with Thomas Jefferson,” Brian told me. “He said, ‘I am a firm believer in luck. I find that the harder I work, the luckier I become.’”

His wife Laurel now joins in that work. A Duxbury High School grad, she helps with the whole enterprise, but it was Brian who stitched the perfect replica of the Ballpark-Tent you’ll see in the book, and turned the tiny ketchup and mustard bottles on his lathe, and every other detail, including the “bull pen” from the Fair, and “foul territory.” He’s not a stickler, a trope that once meant “umpire.” His paintings are far too rich for such a term. View them in full sunlight. They glow. They soar. Brian Lies has an infinite capacity for taking pains.
