Volume 19, Number 36 Serving Durham, Middlefield and Rockfall www.TownTimes.com Friday, January 16, 2015
The school utilization re-port, written by architec-tural planning firm Drummey Rosane Anderson Inc. and turned into the district in December, presented four options to the Board of Edu-cation and left the board plan-ning for the next steps to deal with declining enrollment in District 13.
Declining enrollment has presented Durham and Mid-dlefield with the prospect of
either underutilized buildings or closing and reconfiguring schools.
According to BOE member Bob Fulton, the board’s Utili-zation Committee has focused on a configuration of two K-5 schools, one 6-8 middle school, and one high school, closing two of the current six buildings.
This option, modeled as C3 in the DRA report, allows for two benefits that have been brought up at multiple meet-ings and workshops.
The two elementary schools
maintains both the Contem-porary and the Integrated Day programs and houses them in separate buildings at the ele-mentary level. The C3 option also reduces the number of times a student has to transi-tion to a new school.
“That’s the outline that we’ve settled on,” Fulton, speaking for the Utilization Committee and not the full BOE, told the Town Times.
No plan has been officially selected, but the Utilization

Middlefield officials are considering several options around the leasing of the cell tower located on Jackson Hill Road behind Town Hall. The tower is used by three communications companies and the town.
| Mark Dionne / Town Times
Officials in Middlefield ex-pect to have a deal in place soon for the lease of a cell tower located on Jackson Hill Road behind the Mid-dlefield Town Hall.
At the Jan. 5 Middlefield Board of Selectmen’s meet-ing, First Selectman Jon Brayshaw said he wanted to get to “the final, final, final, final, final, final agreement” and expected it to impact the fiscal year 2015-2016 town budget.
At the regular Jan. 8 Mid-dlefield Board of Finance meeting, Chair Robert Ya-martino agreed. “We’ve got to cap this prior to going into budget season,” he said.
The BOF agreed to hold a special board meeting on Jan. 22 to discuss various propos-als, with the expectation that they would make a specific
recommendation, and a pub-lic hearing in February.
The deals are complicated not just by the technology involved and its potential changes but by the own-ership. The town does not own the cell tower, but the land under it and the lease on it. That lease runs out in 10 years.
Several town off icials made pains to insist that none of the deals would sell the land or the tower. The potential deals are to sell and extend the lease.
The deals, however, are not short term. Those re-ferred to at the Jan. 8 BOF meeting ranged from 30 to 50 years.
“You guys have a tough de-cision,” said Unison’s Chuck Bruttomesso, whose com-pany deals with cell tower leasing and presented a pro-

JE SUIS CHARLIE
In the wake of the terrorist attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, people gathered on the Durham town green Jan. 10 to show sympathy for the victims and support for freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Demonstrators held signs reading “Je suis Charlie” – I am Charlie – a slogan of support adopted immediately after the attack, and markers and pens, tools of the cartooning trade. The gathering included several local artists as well as French nationals.

Volunteers, ideas sought for Middlefield’s sesquicentennial
One hundred and for-ty-nine years ago Middlefield separated from Middletown to become a town of its own. While 149 is not a big anniver-sary year, it means residents can begin planning for Mid-dlefield’s 150 anniversary cel-ebration, or sesquicentennial.
Parks and Recreation Di-rector Chris Hurlbert agreed to chair the planning commit-tee, and is looking for “com-mittee members, volunteers, and ideas” to help with the event.
The sesquicentennial cel-ebration will kick off in the fall of 2015, possibly at the Durham Fair, and Hurlbert envisions different events running through 2016, with the main celebration coming June 2-12, 2016.
“The big event is going to be a 10-day long celebration. We’re going to have concerts, we’re going to have a small fair or festival. It’s going to be sort of like Old Home Days but on a larger scale,” Hurl-bert said.
According to Hurlbert, the group would like activities spread out over the calen-dar as well as the town, in-cluding places like Peckham Park, the Town Green, Lyman
Orchards, Powder Ridge, and possibly historical tours of Middlefield. Some ideas for events taking place before the main celebration include ideas like a gala ball, an Ok-toberfest, a fishing derby, a food truck festival, and a golf tournament.

Experts urge extra care for pets in cold weather
With the recent cold snap and two more months of win-ter ahead, local animal care personnel are asking pet own-ers to be careful about pets being outside during extreme cold temperatures. Experts in Meriden and Cheshire as well as with the Humane Society recently provided the follow-ing advice and legal informa-tion for pet owners.
With the Meriden depart-ment, assistant animal con-trol officer Sarah Bacon said a public act passed in June 2013 creates penalties for the teth-ering of dogs outside in cer-tain weather conditions such as extreme cold. Bacon said animal control has received several calls for animals left out in the cold in recent weeks, but the volume of calls is less than last year because of the warmer temperatures.
Animal control will investi-
gate reports of an animal left outside in the cold, usually by first finding the owner to let them know they have to bring the animal inside immedi-ately, Bacon said. If no one is home or there have been mul-tiple calls, animal control offi-cers can write the pet owner an infraction or remove the animal, Bacon said.
Animal control officer Bryan Kline also has seen pet owners charged with animal cruelty in previous years for leaving animals out in the cold.
“There haven’t been any this year,” Bacon said. “In years past there have been animals with frostbite and roaming.”
Nicholas Naoumides, of the VCA Cheshire Animal Hospital, doesn’t usually see pets coming in with cold weather related symptoms. Some breeds with thicker

BOE
Committee will recommend that both this plan and in-termediate steps that can be taken in the meantime be studied.
Fulton said, “We need to look at how we can deal with the declining enroll-ment while preparing for the long term full resolution in a phased way.”
Some of the information to be gathered includes a cost analysis of each building, an engineering study of the lo-gistics of moving classes and closing schools, and a plan to maintain education integrity during any disruptions.
Option C3 in the DRA re-port closes Korn and Lyman and converts Memorial and an expanded Brewster into K-5 schools. Fulton did not want to name individual build-ings and emphasized that the BOE’s decisions could be dif-ferent than the DRA’s report.
Although the time frame mentioned in the DRA report targets the 2021 school year as a completion date, BOE mem-bers and the cover letter put construction starting as early as the 2017-18 range.
A phased implementation means changes could come sooner. Another item the board will study is the feasi-bility of closing a school be-
fore full reconfiguration. It adds up to a potential
direction, but also a lot of studies.
“I know people are anx-ious for answers,” Fulton said, “but the nature of the project doesn’t lend itself to quick answers and quick solutions. I get that people are anxious about not having an answer, but there are so many ways to not do it right.”

hair or that are bred for colder weather are fine out-side for a slightly longer time, he said. Beyond the cold, he said, there are other hazards for dogs and cats outside this time of year such as an-ti-freeze and salt. Naoumides recommended pet owners read warning labels and try to get non-toxic materials. In terms of having pets outside in the cold, Naoumides said to use common sense.
“Obviously you shouldn’t leave them out for too long,” Naoumides said.
The Humane Society of-fers tips on protecting pets in cold weather. Tips include keeping pets inside as much as possible.
If the pet must go outside, the Humane Society recom-mends a sweater or jacket for smaller or short-hair breeds. Exposed skin on a dog’s nose, ears and paw pads are vulnerable to frost bite or hypothermia.
Give pets plenty of food and water because keeping warm depletes energy. Plas-tic bowls are recommended as metal can freeze and stick to pets’ tongues.

ObituariesValerie J. Wintsch
HAMDEN — Valerie J. Wintsch, 75, died peacefully on Friday, Jan. 2, 2015, at Ar-
den Courts in Hamden, from complications of Alzheimer’s. A vivacious, well read, and intellectually curious lady, Valerie loved
good books, music, friend-ship, and laughter. Most of all, she loved her family. She was a devoted daughter, wife, mother, and grandmother.
Born in Naugatuck, in 1939, Valerie was the daughter of teacher Dorothy Moses and chemical engineer Charles Gates. She grew up in Elmira, Ontario, a tight-knit commu-
nity that nurtured her lifelong loyalty to family and friends, as well as to the Queen of En-gland. An only child until her brother, David, arrived when she was 15, she remained very close to her parents through-out her life. Her friend, Jean Kirkham, was an honorary sis-ter (and fellow prankster), Isa-bel Huggan, a “pretend” little sister, and cousin Chris Wood-man, a “borrowed” brother. Valerie earned a bachelor of arts in history with a minor in music from the University of Connecticut. She married Fred Wintsch, whom she’d known since childhood, on June 23, 1962, making their home in Naugatuck for the next 18 years. She taught his-tory, English, and music at Hillside Middle School for 3 years before resigning to em-
bark on a career as a full-time mom. In Naugatuck, Valerie joined the Women’s Study Club, twice serving as presi-dent, sang in the choir and di-rected children’s musicals at the Congregational church, and performed in amateur mu-sical theater. Valerie and Fred moved with their children to Durham, in 1980, where she joined the Garden Club, vol-unteered at the library, led a book club, performed in Con-necticut Gilbert and Sullivan Society productions, sang in the United Churches choir, and supported the Cracker-box Players. In their 52-year marriage, Valerie and Fred enjoyed many travels and adventures, with especially fond memories of their trips to Switzerland and their summer cottage in Maine, where fam-ily and friends would gather to swim, kayak, listen to loons, and tour the lake on Fred’s steamboat.
Valerie is survived by her husband, Fred Wintsch, of Wallingford; brother, David
Gates and his wife, Gert, of Waterloo, Iowa; daughter, Elizabeth and son-in-law, Peter Shoudy, of Durham; daughter, Suzanne and son-in-law, Matthew Churchill, of Davidson, N.C.; son, Jona-than and daughter-in-law, Su-zanne Wintsch, of Haddam; and eight grandchildren, Ben, Alex, and Noah Shoudy, Thomas, Luke, and Zachary Churchill, and Isabelle and William Wintsch. Valerie pos-sessed a keen intellect and read voraciously. Her exten-sive vocabulary and impec-cable grammar made her an excellent conversational-ist and a formidable Scrab-ble player. She was an avid social and family historian, meticulously recording every facet of her children’s lives in baby books, delighting her Elmira school chums with her detailed recollections of their exploits, and writing a memoir for her children and grandchil-dren. For her, personal stories were rich sources of heritage, humanity, and humor. An in-
veterate perfectionist, Valerie never stopped trying to be good and to please others. At the same time, she had a forgiving heart when people around her didn’t match the high standards she held for herself. She would dimple up in laughter at the slightest provocation, drawing great pleasure from pranks, prac-tical jokes, zingers, and her husband’s dry wit. She was continually astonished by the marvels of her good for-tune – Fred’s constant love, her close relationships with her children, and the ongoing delight of her many wonderful grandchildren.
A celebration of her life will be held at the United Churches of Durham on Sat-urday, Jan. 17, at 11 a.m. Interment will be at the con-venience of the family in For-est Dale Cemetery in Malden, Mass. In lieu of flowers, me-morial gifts may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association or Hospice of Connecticut.

On Sept. 16, 2014 at 11:31 a.m. a phone call changed my life. Our family home at 324 Jackson Hill Rd. in Middlefield was on fire. The kids were at school, I was at work. Dan, my hus-band had seen smoke, then fire. Within 20 minutes, the
flames were billowing out of the roof. Buddy and Ab-bey, our beloved dogs, were trapped and our house had burned to the ground.
I could see the smoke from a distance and my heart stopped. Fire trucks, volunteer firemen from all over were there. After I arrived I must’ve been in
shock because I kept re-peating that my children’s clothes were all gone.
The reality was, we just lost everything.
Hours later as we watched the house drip with water from the fire hoses, my truck was filled with supplies,

State Rep. Vincent Candelora (R-86) took the oath of of-fice last week kick-ing off his fifth term representing the 86th district in the 2015 legislative session.
House Republi-can Leader Themis Klarides appointed Candelora as her Deputy Republican Leader, join-
ing representatives Craig Miner, Laura Hoydick and Arthur O’Neil in the second highest position in the caucus. The ap-pointment was rati-fied unanimously by her colleagues.
Candelora was also appointed to serve on
the legislature’s Finance, Rev-enue and Bonding, Legislative
Management, Judiciary, Pub-lic Health and Regulations Review committees and will serve as Chair of the Screen-ing Committee that is tasked with reviewing all legislation before it is put up for a vote in the House.
Candelora represents the 86th District communities of Durham, Guilford, North Branford and Wallingford.

Ted Kennedy, Jr. was joined by his family as he was sworn in for his first term as a State Sen-ator. Sen. Kennedy thanked the people of the 12th District for choosing him as their elected representa-tive, and expressed an eagerness to begin work-ing on their behalf.
Kennedy will serve as Senate Chair of the General Assembly’s Environment Committee, which has over-sight of issues relating to the
Department of En-ergy and Environ-mental Protection, including conserva-tion, recreation at Connecticut’s State Parks, pollution con-trol, fisheries and game, and a variety of agricultural issues. In addition, Kennedy
will be a member of the Pub-lic Health and Transportation Committees.
One of Kennedy’s immedi-ate priorities is to introduce legislation that will result in the state taking an inventory
of the uses of Long Island Sound and developing a plan to preserve it for future recre-ational and commercial use. This legislation will not cost any additional state dollars, but will provide opportuni-ties for the state’s growing aquaculture and energy in-dustries while also increasing the security of Connecticut’s southern coast.
Kennedy represents the 12th Senatorial District commu-nities of Branford, Durham, Guilford, Killingworth, Madi-son and North Branford.

State Rep. Noreen Kokoruda (R-101) took the oath of of-fice kicking off her third term as a state legislator.
Ko ko r u d a h a s been appointed a leadership position as House Republi-can Caucus Chair by Incoming House Republican Leader Themis Klarides, she
will also serve as the leading House Re-publican lawmaker on the legislature’s C o m m i t t e e o n Children.
Kokoruda was ap-pointed to serve on the legislature’s Ap-propriations, Edu-cation and Aging
committees. Kokoruda said she is pleased with her com-
mittee assignments and new leadership positions because it will give her an opportu-nity to pay special atten-tion to the state’s finances, seniors and improving our state’s education system including school safety enhancements.
Kokoruda represents the 101st District communities of Durham and Madison.

So here we sit, with a long, frigid winter stretched out before us. The artifi-cial tree has returned to its home in the attic, or the real tree has gone to its grave. The lights have come down, making these dark nights seem even darker. The Hall-mark Christmas movies, the Christmas carols we all grew up with – just a memory now. The holidays distracted us from the fact that it’s cold out there, and so brown. For many, this is the most dismal time of the year.
Winter used to be hard for me, too. It was hard having my “outdoor time” dwin-dle down to a 45-minute (if that) daily walk. Shoveling snow has never been my fa-vorite activity. And I longed for the color green, and for some signs of life out there in my barren yard. I espe-cially missed the butterflies.
But due to circumstances,
my attitude toward win-ter has changed. Oh, I still adore summer, for so many reasons. My above-ground pool, going barefoot, long days, flowers and color and birds singing outside my window in the morning. Who doesn’t love summer? But there’s another side to this particular coin for me. There are all manner of beasties to contend with. There are snakes, which have all seemed to con-gregate in my yard, even though they know that just a glimpse of them throws me into a fit of hysteria. I’m talking racing heart, running in the opposite direction so fast that I usually fall down, screaming so loudly that it’s a wonder I have any vocal chords left. I think it’s rude of them to put me through all that.
In the summer I sleep
Embrace the cozy cold

Sesquicentennial
will be used to fund later events but, as Hurlbert puts it, “We don’t have a lot nailed down ... We’re still planning this out, but we’re going to encompass the entire town.”
Hurlbert and First Select-man Jon Brayshaw have both made appeals for volunteers to help out with the sesqui-centennial. Hurlbert said a core group of 10 to 15 people come to the Sesquicentennial Committee meetings. Those planning meetings started in October of 2014 and take place the third Sunday of ev-ery month, 6 p.m., at the Mid-dlefield Community Center.
The next meeting is Jan. 18 and Hurlbert encouraged in-terested residents to come.
“It’s a year’s long worth of events and we need lots of help to pull this all off,” Hurl-bert said. The sesquicenten-nial planners are looking for people who could serve as a liaison to civic groups and people with a variety of skills and ideas.
The names of the groups Hurlbert plans on forming give an idea of what the ses-quicentennial might even-tually look like: Parade, Fundraising, Promotion, En-tertainment, Vendors, His-torical, Grounds, Events, and Security.

Mary D. (Astramowicz) Petrucelli
DURHAM — Mary D. (Astramowicz) Petrucelli, 94, wife of the late Ma-
rio D. Petru-cel l i , d ied on Monday, Jan. 5, 2015, at Middle-sex Hospital, Hospice Unit after a brief illness.
Born in Meriden on Dec. 12, 1920, she was the daughter of the late Jo-seph and Veronica (Kubeck) Astramowicz. She was a longtime Meriden resident, moving to Durham in 2001. She graduated from Mer-iden High School, class of 1939. Mrs. Petrucelli was a devout Catholic and a pa-rishioner of Notre Dame
Church in Durham. She was a member of Daugh-ters of Isabella, Golden Cir-cle and the Durham Senior Center. Family was always most important to her. Mary was a very loving, warm mother, grandmother and great-grandmother and will be missed by all.
She is survived by three daughters, Loretta Victor, of Meriden, Noreen Baris and her husband, John, of Durham and Sharon Myjak and her husband, Peter, of Sherman; eight grandchil-dren, Ronald S. Victor, Ste-phen P. Victor, Maryellen Koza, Laney Baris-Turano, Carrie Baris-Conte, Sara Myjak-Gonzalez, Dana P. Myjak and Michael R. My-jak; six great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews. She was prede-ceased by son-in-law, Ron-ald B. Victor; five brothers,
Benjamin, Edward, Louis, Stanley and Theodore As-tramowicz; and four sisters, Anne Parent, Stasia As-tramowicz, Helen Weathers and Hattie Pancallo.
The funeral will be held on Saturday, Jan. 10, at 10:15 a.m. from the John J. Ferry & Sons Funeral Home, 88 E.

Cell
posal to the BOF. Town officials have to
weigh a large initial pay-ment to the town against per-centages of potential future revenue.
For example, one proposal discussed by the BOF in-cluded a $425,000 lump sum payment which would pur-chase most of the monthly rent and fees from the tenant
and wireless companies.“It’s a very sizable bit of
change, it will have an effect on the budget. It’s not a small amount of money that we’re talking about,” Brayshaw said at the BOS meeting.
Yamartino said the town is in a good position to benefit from a cell tower deal.
“If we can get capital out of it now, we’re protected ... and by taking a percentage of the revenues, if they should
become grossly more lucra-tive, we’ve protected our-selves and if they become less lucrative, we already took the value out [with the lump payment] ... so I think we’re in good shape there,” Yamartino said.
The tower currently houses three carriers, plus communications for the town. According to Brut-tomesso, it could handle one more carrier.
Selectman Ed Bailey at-tended the BOF meeting and suggested that any money re-ceived from a cell tower deal should go into the town’s capital account because it was generated from the lease of capital equipment.
According to BOF member Mary Wolak, the BOF pre-ferred to think of the deal and the town’s eventual use of the money as two separate issues.

Cold
with one eye open because I get ants the size of prairie dogs. My yard is obviously Tick Central, and Lyme Dis-ease and I have had more than a few whirls around the dance floor. And this is not an illness that comes gently in the night. Rather, it comes stomping in and shakes you, long and hard. My dear kitty, Shamus, doesn’t have an easy time of it, either. Even though he stays inside, aller-gies – to all things that are blooming – find him, and be-
cause of other health issues, this is a serious matter.
So now I love winter. Shamus and I are in tip-top shape. Yes, the land lies fal-low, but for us, it poses no threats. Brown suits me just fine these days. It means there’s nothing out to get me, or Shamus. I can relax, let down my guard. This is my resting time.
I used to think those na-ked, gnarled trees were ugly, but now they have even taken on a kind of beauty for me. Stripped of their cam-ouflage, they show off their
various sizes and shapes, and the way they twist and turn. There’s something raw and primal about them. I’ve grown quite fond of them.
And what could feel bet-ter than a brisk walk when Jack Frost is, as the song says, nipping at your nose? I admit it isn’t much fun at first, but once I get a bit of momentum going, I feel so invigorated and so alive. And so proud of myself for having pushed myself out the door in the first place. And if it’s snowing, all the better. I cannot resist a long
walk in a snowstorm.Now, instead of seeing
the long nights as confine-ment and dreariness, I see them as a welcome coziness. For those of you wishing to visit, I must warn you that I am in my bathrobe at 4:00, at the latest. It’s a ratty thing, so the vision you encounter when I open the door may not be a pretty one. But wrapped up in it and sitting on my futon with a beverage of my choice, my cats snuggled up beside me, surrounded by the warm glow of my rock salt lamps
and the string of Christmas lights that just refuse to go back into their box, with an evening of TV stretched gloriously before me; well, it feels like absolute heaven to me. My wants and needs are really simple!
Then there’s the snow. I love how everything slows down when it snows. I love the peace and the stillness, like the world has stopped to catch its breath. There’s magic afoot. It’s the magic of the world turning down its volume, so that we can hear our own spirits.
And it bears mention-ing that in the winter I am much more inclined to be a productive member of society. Warm weather has me playing outside all day long. Little gets done, and I’ve learned to live with that. The winter, however, has me getting to things that fall by the wayside the other three seasons. I wouldn’t exactly say I’m a ball of fire, but at least I am facing in that direction.
So January and February, I am happy to call you friends now. Christmas is over, but I am still receiving gifts.

Coginchaug girls survive the holidaysThe Lady Blue Devil hoop-
sters were quite busy during the holiday season.
Dec. 22, the girls traveled to Fair Haven School to take on Hyde, burying the Howl-ing Wolves 55-22. Hyde kept things close in the first period, as Coginchaug took a 10-9 lead into the second. The game quickly became a one-sided af-fair, as the Devils jumped out to a 26-14 halftime lead and never looked back. Coginchaug out-scored Hyde 22-1 in the third to silence the crowd.
Mikayla Wyskiel and Ash-leigh Halligan led the Devils with 10 points each, with Lar-issa Cade adding eight points and Margaret Bossie, six.
For Hyde, Destiny Black-wood scored 10, and Nyjayah Gibson dropped in nine points.
The girls kept their win-ning ways going with a close 48-42 decision over Haddam-Killingworth.
Despite a one-point deficit at the half, and a 30-27 disad-vantage heading into the final quarter, the Blue Devils were able to overcome the Cougars for the win.
Wyskiel scored 11 of her game-high 19 points in the fi-nal frame to put Coginchaug on top. Cade and Audrey Ar-cari added 13 and eight points, respectively.
For H-K, Brinely Anderson scored 16 points and Haley Ser-vant netted 12.
Coginchaug couldn’t keep its hot streak alive in a close matchup with Lyman Hall, as the Lady Blue Devils fell to the Trojans 40-39.
After playing to a 19-19 half-time stalemate, Coginchaug fell behind 35-25 heading into the final quarter. However, after charging back to tie the game at 39 all on a Wyskiel jumper, a late free throw with six seconds remaining gave the Trojans the lead. The Blue Devils were un-able to get off a shot in their fi-
nal possession.Arcari led all scorers with 16
points. Cade added 13. For Ly-man Hall, Kim Petit scored 15, while Sabrina Smith tallied 14.
Despite the close loss, the frustrations weren’t over for the Lady Blue Devils, who lost their next matchup against Hale-Ray, 47-45.
Although they only trailed by one point entering the fourth quarter, Coginchaug was plagued by foul trouble that sent the Noises to the charity stripe 27 times. Ashleigh Hal-ligan scored eight points in the final minute of play, but it wasn’t enough for the Blue Devils to overcome.
Halligan scored 17 points to lead the Devils, with Arcari adding 10 points.
Jan. 6, the Devils found them-selves in the winner’s circle again after besting the West-brook Knights 48-23.
Coginchaug dominated play from start to finish, as a 13-point lead after one quarter expanded
to 19 points at the half, and kept building.
Cade led the Devils with 15 points, and Arcari added 11.
Lauren Wright led West-brook with seven points.
Coginchaug finished its hol-iday season play with a battle against the always tough Thun-derbirds of North Branford that saw the Blue Devils come out on top, 53-46.
A small 23-21 halftime lead for Coginchaug grew slightly, to 38-35, after three frames. Yet a strong quarter from the char-ity stripe helped the Blue Dev-ils put the Thunderbirds out of commission, as the local girls sank 11 of 15 free throws.
Wyskiel scored 21 points for the victors, with Arcari adding 11 points, and Cade contribut-ing 10.
Sabrina LeMere scored 19 for the T-birds, and Justine Johnson added 12 points.
The Lady Devils stand at 5-4, as the girls boast a 5-2 Shoreline Conference record.
By Alan Pease
The Coginchaug Foot-ball Club held its annual football banquet in early December. Aside from celebrating the Blue Devils’ successful 9-2 season, the club also recognized several team members for their efforts on and off the gridiron.
Brendan Wiknik and Ricky Sorensen were given the Rookie of the Year award. Artie Koba was acknowledged with the Foundations of Honor award, given annually to a four-year senior who best exem-plifies the qualities of scholarship, leadership and citizenship.
The Bonnie Currlin Award, given in memory of Currlin’s dedication to the Coginchaug football program, was awarded to Eric Solomon. Solomon was recognized for best exemplifying what the honor strives to award: “those players whose courage and commit-ment best contribute to the team’s success.”
Josh Smith and Jake Ober were acknowl-edged with the MVP award.

Tips from the Pro: Improving your putting
Well, it’s officially winter. Even though golf courses are covered with snow, there are still ways you can improve your golf game and stay warm at the same time.
Putting is such an import-ant part of the game. The cliché, “drive for show, and putt for dough” is a very true statement. The average player puts a premium on the full swing and often hits balls on the driving range rather than spend time on the putting green. What that player fails to realize is that nearly 40 percent of your total score will come from putts. So while we all are stuck inside this winter, let’s really focus on improving our putting.
Putting is a combination of two things; the first is dis-tance. In order to succeed in limiting the amounts of putts per round, you need to hit putts with the correct speed so they go the cor-rect distance. A great tip to control the distance you hit a putt is to remember one simple equation: backstroke equals follow-through. The distance you bring the put-ter back should equal the distance you follow-through with.
A great drill you can work on at home to con-trol putting distance goes as follows: take two phone books and place one of them one foot behind your putter. Then, take the other phone book and place it one foot in front of your putter. Without
hitting a ball, just bring the putter back and forth trying to barely tap each phone book. This is a great, sim-ple drill to practice having your backstroke equal your follow-through.
The second part of putting is direction. If you do not hit a putt in the correct di-rection, the ball will not go in the hole, or be anywhere close. It is very import-ant to keep the putter head “square” to control direc-tion. If the putter head does not square-up at impact, you can easily miss putts left or right.
A great drill to help work on controlling the direction of your putting is the “quar-ter drill.” Take two quar-ters and place them on the ground, with one quarter just outside the toe of the putter, and place the other quarter just outside the heel of the putter. With the quar-ters in place, you can now take the putter and make a normal putting stroke be-tween the quarters. The object of the drill is to make a putting stroke without hit-ting either of the quarters. You can do the drill with a golf ball or without, but the
whole purpose of the drill is to learn how to keep the putter head square.
So while you are sitting indoors, looking out at the snow, do your golf game a favor and grab your putter and work on these simple drills. There is not a doubt that your putting will im-prove by the spring.
