Most people may remember Matthew Jacques as the boy who needed a heart, as the boy featured in the Good Morning America video where he ran the ball as part of North Haven Football Team’s spring charity game. The video shows Matthew running the ball with high school football players towering above him and cheering him as he scored a touchdown.
The football game to benefit Matthew raised $9,000 to help him get a heart transplant. But on Oct. 2, the football team sat in the pews of the Dunbar United Church of Christ in Hamden for Matthew’s funeral.
He had died from complications
surrounding the operation for his new heart.
However, from the football team sitting in the back to his family sit-ting in the front row, it was clear that 6-year-old Matthew Jacques had changed lives.
As the team got to know Matthew, “It became more than a simple act of charity,” Ethan Suraci, 17 and a senior at the school, said. “He quickly became our surrogate little brother.”
After the game, Suraci kept in touch with the family remotely. Coach Anthony Sagnel la or Principal Russell Dallai would tell them news about Matthew. Suraci started to follow Matthew’s prog-ress on Facebook.
The Quinnipiac River is the state’s most urban water-way. Over the years, the river, which starts in Plainville and runs south to Long Island Sound, has become polluted. Old industry waste, pesti-cides from lawns and lit-ter all made its way into the Quinnipiac, according to the Quinnipiac River Watershed Association, a grassroots and advocacy organization.
But that is slowly chang-ing, according to the QRWA. According to several inter-views with QRWA officials and volunteers, there is less trash in the river than even five years ago and the organi-zation is conducting a study to find ways to reduce pollu-tion in the waterway.
On Oct. 12, the QRWA held its annual fall cleanup. Up and down the river, groups
scoured the banks for trash. Where the river emp-
ties into Hanover Pond in Meriden before continuing its journey south, Meriden Rotary President Cl i f f Carlson and Lex Sorrell, 15, walk down the bank to check out a spot.

When Joe D’Amico re-turned from two tours of duty overseas, he searched for 10 months before finding work at the Department of Commerce.
According to the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, the rate of unem-ployment for veterans overall has been slowly decreasing over the summer and the number is now around 6 percent. But the number of unemployed veterans from the War on Terror spiked in September, rising to 10 percent, according to num-bers by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
“Sometimes, you have to create these opportunities yourself,” said Joe D’Amico, co founder of Infantry Fitness, LLC.
D’Amico with fellow vet-eran Matt Mello — who works as a police officer in Milford — are striking off on their own, starting a fitness studio at 338 State St.
The fitness center, due to open its doors mid October, will offer CrossFit and a boot-camp workout style. Because “not everyone is going to be on the CrossFit bandwagon,” D’Amico said he hopes to start a yoga program at the fitness facility in the future.
The center is an old garage in back of the State Street that used to belong to a trucking company and then a land-scaping company. D’Amico
and Mello leveled the floor, had the parking lot and roof re-done, and gave the space a new paint job. Now, weights line a far wall and a United States and a Marine flag hang from the ceiling.
A few days away from opening, the website went live last week and the T-shirts are ordered.
The story of Infantry Fitness began when both men were in the Marines. D’Amico was a machine gunner, Mello a rifleman.
For Mello, the fitness the military put him through put him in the best fitness level in his life. When he left the military, he found CrossFit was the style of fitness the Marines used. He has been doing CrossFit for four and a half years now.
D’Amico spent seven years in the Marines and then used the GI bill to get a Masters in Business Administration from Southern Connecticut State University in 2011. A few weeks later, he was in Afghanistan working with the Air Force. Currently, D’Amico is still in the reserves as a first lieutenant.
During his time there, he was working 12 hour shifts. The rest of the day was spent sleeping, eating and working out.
When he returned, he wanted to take the plunge and start his own business. D’Amico decided to do some-thing that interested him — fitness.
One day, while working out with Mello, D’Amico shared his idea.
The men used the money they earned overseas to start Infantry Fitness.
As part of the preparation, the men had to become affil-
iated with CrossFit, sending in a essay to the company de-scribing why they wanted to offer the program.
“We are two Marines that have an appreciation and understanding for what be-ing prepared for any mis-sion means,” D’Amico wrote to CrossFit. “(...)We as train-ers are here to share not only what we have learned about CrossFit, but what drives us as well.”
Mello said CrossFit was a good fit for Infantry Fitness because the company caters to veterans. It’s a little known fact, he said, that CrossFit “caters a lot to military vet-erans.” Because the company makes it easy for veterans to start their own CrossFit loca-
tions. They simply have to go to a course and pay $3,000 a year.

The team was there to cry “tears of joy” when Matthew got his heart and to cry “tears of dismay” when com-plications took his life.
“I mean, his parent said he looked up to us, but we idol-ized him,” said Suraci. “We still do.”
“That kid saved my life,” Al Jacques said, Matthew’s father.
“Everyone has a past,” Al continued. It was his grand-mother’s dying wish for him to stop drinking. And he did. He got rid of his so-called friends and became the fa-ther to Matthew.
Matthew had an unusu-ally close relationship with his father.
“They were more than fa-ther/son,” Matthew’s mother, Melissa Jacques said. “They were best friends.”
While Melissa worked, Al and Matthew would spend time with each other, run-ning errands, going to the convenience store, visiting the duck pond.
When the two would part, Al would make the “I love you” sign language symbol and tell Matthew “See you later” — he never said good-bye. Goodbyes were forever, he told his son.
Lara Silvestro first met Matthew when he started school. As his Kindergarten
teacher, she was there when on the first day of school when he cried because he missed his father. She was there during his first year when he kept getting sick that he was only in the class-room for about 30 days.
While the school nor-mally doesn’t have its teach-ers tutor individual students, Silvestro started teaching Matthew one on one after school.
“Matthew didn’t want any-one else,” she said.
She was his partner in learning. She’d ask him to write a sentence. He would, he said, if she would write one too.
But while Silvestro taught Matthew, he was teaching her as well.
Two years ago, Silvestro went through a divorce in which she lost everything. Struggling as a single mom with a daughter, she was an-gry, she said.
Matthew brought her to a better place, back to reality, she said
“He made me look at things differently,” Silvestro said.
Now comes the time when the community tries to find a way to keep Matthew in its memory. Silvestro will hold a zumbathon on Friday, Nov. 1 at 6 p.m. at Montowese Elementary School to raise funds for the Jacques fam-ily. The family still has med-
ical bills and the zumbathon is another way to defray the costs.
Mary Federico, principal of Montowese Elementary School said she met with the school’s PTA and they want to do something to remem-ber the elementary school student. The school built a new playground about a year ago, and perhaps the school will name it the Matthew Jacques Playground.
Federico said the high school is looking to create a scholarship for a football player in Matthew’s memory.
She wants to “pull all the factions together, to find a way to memorialize
Matthew. She hopes to meet in November or December, to hopefully have a plan by spring.
“He touched so many lives. We just want to keep that go-ing,” Federico said.

Quinnipiac
uled their own fall cleanups of sections of the river. In the past, the volunteers have pulled anything from hot tubs to cars out of the river.
“It seems like the same stuff we pull out every year, but it’s getting better,” Carlson said.
David James, secretary for QRWA, said that the river quality improved after President Nixon signed the Clean Water Act and the in-dustry along the river faded away.
“Well, it was a lot better than it was in the ’70s,” he
said. One such industry located
along the western bank of the river in North Haven was the Upjohn Chemical Company. There, the company made chemicals that went into products like sunscreen, pes-ticides, soaps and dyes.
The property was ac-quired by the Pharmacia Corporation and eventually, manufacturing ceased at the property in 1993.
Today, Pfizer Inc. is clean-ing up the site from chemi-cals that have sunk down into the ground. It is install-ing a hydraulic barrier to keep contaminated ground-water from seeping into the river and f lowing into the sound.
Roger Kemp, vice presi-dent of QRWA, said the or-ganization tries to educate towns in the watershed about its impact to the river.
A watershed is the area where rainwater feeds the river. A watershed is much larger than the river it-self. For example, while the Quinnipiac f lows through seven towns, 19 towns are a part of the river’s watershed.
The problem, Kemp says, is portions of towns like New Britian, Durham, Middlefield and Berlin “don’t even know they are in the watershed.”
Kemp said the QRWA is currently in the middle of studying the watershed in order to create a water-shed management plan. The study, which is state funded, will be the first management plan for a watershed in the state.
The study will look at what causes problems. After the plan is completed during January 2014, the QRWA will send the plan to all the towns in the watershed, asking for cooperation.

Letters to the Editor
Real learning To the editor:As a kindergarten teacher
since 1999, I want to thank you for your letter in the North Haven Citizen about the Common Core. Thank you for realizing that a teach-er’s job is so much more than test scores and data.
Every four years (or so), government officials enact legislation with hopes of improving test scores and drop out rates. I wonder if any these officials and board members have actually spent a day or weeks’ worth of time in the classrooms and collected any data that is re-
quired by any of the these initiatives?
No Child Left Behind, Race to the Top, and the Common Core all great looking on pa-per and in theory, but when the pencils hit the paper, they leave behind stress and aggravation for teachers and students rather than real learning.
People and children learn through experience and ex-citement; lawmakers need to remember that we are al-lowing 4 year olds to come to kindergarten, but creating standards that even six year olds may not master by the
end of first grade. Education is a living, breathing, flexible
For Letters to the Editor regarding any candidates or issues that involve the political season, The North Haven Citizen will only accept and publish letters that are 100 words or less.
This policy is in keep-ing with the policy of The Citizen and will be in effect starting with the next edi-tion of The Citizen.
The last edition for which we will publish let-ters of a political nature is Oct. 24. We ask writers to focus on their candidate’s worthiness for office and refrain from personal at-tacks on individuals.
As always, we reserve the right to edit letters or to not publish a letter. Letters should contain contact in-formation, including, full name, address and phone number. Only your name and town will be published. If you have a specific role in politics or the political process, please include that information.
Letters on other top-ics will continue to be ac-cepted up to a 300 word limit. Send letters to [email protected] or The North Haven Citizen, P.O. Box 855, North Haven, CT 06473.

endeavor. It is not a static business. We can’t force a child to learn something that he or she is not mentally or emotionally ready to master. How are we making life-long learners when the system seems set children up for failure before they walk in the door?
We need to educate chil-dren, but we also need to recognize that all work and no play makes for very dull, bored, and anxious children, teachers, and parents.
Parents need to understand the delicate balance between work and play in school, and lawmakers need to visit the schools to see how much work teachers put into our children to follow the de-mands of standards like the Common Core.

What the fuss is all about
To the editor:Recently, a rather “vicious”
withdrawal letter for the pro-posed amendment to add private for profit Recycling Centers and Transfer Stations to the zoning regulations was authored by the appli-cant. Contained therein was a failed attempt to crush the freedom of speech of some people in the Town of North Haven.
Within the letter, the au-
thor accuses members of the public of “…distorting the process…to incite fears…” It mentions how they pre-sented, “…details and ben-efits of the single-stream process…”
No one disagreed with the benefits of the single-stream process. In fact, many speak-ers at Planning and Zoning meetings spoke of how they recycle. One might say we are in agreement about the benefits of single-stream re-cycling as long as that stream is limited to: dry Municipal Solid Waste i.e. paper, plas-tic, cardboard, tin, and glass. So, what’s all the “fuss” about some confused people ask? Why are numerous members of the public against adopting the proposed amendment?
The answers are simple after the amendment and grant are read. It is clear the amendment allows for more than the recycling of sin-gle-stream dry MSW and it’s clear the applicant intends to recycle more than dry MSW whether now or in the future. The state grants Recycling Permits and thus simultane-ously usurps local commis-sions’ power.
When asked point blank about their intention of re-cycling food waste and com-posting on site, they stated they changed their minds. When asked if the amend-ment gives them and the other two business owners the abil-ity to recycle in the future: Construction and Demolition Materials (which could con-tain lead paint), food waste, electronics, tires, chemical and hazardous materials, the applicant responded, “Yes.”
These additional recycling streams would pose health and safety hazards and risks to the public. That’s what all the “fuss” is about.

In July of 2012 , Gov. Dannel Malloy visited the town to announce that an in-ternational company, making green building products, was going to build its headquar-ters in North Haven at 297 State Street.
Today, the town and the owner of the property are looking for a different busi-ness to occupy the large in-dustrial building.
In 2012, Malloy announced that the Weeks Group and Diverse Services Group, two international companies that dealt with steel building products, had formed an LLC named Sustainable Building Systems LLC. This new en-tity was looking to occupy the former site of Quebecor World Inc.
The new LLC would have specialized in creating sus-tainable building materi-als. It would have employed about 400 local people.
However, the two com-panies split and the plans to move into the building fell through, according to First Selectman Mike Freda. During the October Board of Selectman meeting, Freda said the site is one of the town’s greatest economic challenges.
“It’s difficult because it’s 386,000 square feet and it’s difficult to get a business that size,” he said.
Freda added that the town is working closely with the property manager, Mountain Development Corp., to find a business to occupy the location.
A few weeks ago, Malloy called Freda, informing him “that the deal for the facility was not going to happen,” Freda said.
According to a press re-lease from the Office of the Governor, the Sustainable Building Systems plan was a $97 million project. The Department of Economic and Community Development
would have given the com-pany a loan of $19.1 mil-lion through the governor’s First Five program, given in three installments through the course of the company’s planned move into North Haven.
“Across the country, we are grappling with the fun-damental question of how we can reinvent the American economy,” Malloy said back in 2012. “In the last cen-tury, the steel industry was the backbone of our nation, providing jobs and helping to build the middle class. Companies like Sustainable Building Systems represent the next evolution of that industry.”
Accord i ng Mou nta i n Development Corp’s website, the 279 State St. property is in a “strategic location,” with close proximity to Route 91 and rail access. The 17 acre site has four interconnected buildings on the property and a 32,000 square foot of-fice space.

Health
Childhood lead poison-ing is the most common pediatric public health prob-lem, according to the CT Department of Public Health, yet it is entirely preventable.
Once a child has been poi-soned, the impairment it may cause is irreversible. Lead can harm a child’s nervous sys-tems and is associated with reduced IQ , behavioral prob-lems, and learning disabili-ties. In rare cases, large doses can cause coma, convulsions and death. No amount of lead
in the body is safe. The dam-age lead can cause to chil-dren is forever. If a pregnant woman is around lead, she and her unborn child may be-come lead poisoned causing lasting damage.
By law, all children, at about age one and two, must be tested for lead poison-ing. Blood tests will tell how much lead is in a child’s blood at the time of the test. If the level is high, the child will need more testing.
Lead enters the body
through the mouth or nose. Lead is not absorbed through the skin. Just a few particles of dust from lead-based paint are enough to poison a child. Since children often put their hands or toys in their mouths, hand washing helps protect lead poisoning.
For more information, visit http://www2.epa.gov/lead or leadfreekids.org or call Quinnipiack Valley Health District, (203) 248-4528 for written materials.

Health District, the pub-lic health department for North Haven Bethany, Hamden and Woodbridge, offers free flu shots to qualifying adults over age 18. The shots are available for adults who have no health insurance* and do not have the funds to pay. The shots are scheduled to be administered Thursday, Nov. 7, 2:30 to 4 p.m. at the ML Keefe Center, 11 Pine St., Hamden and Friday, Nov. 8, 3:30-5 p.m. at Quinnipiack Valley Health District, 1151 Hartford Turnpike, North Haven.
Limited shots are avail-able. Appointments, made by Oct. 30, are required. No walk-ins will be accepted.
To schedule an appoint-ment at the ML Keefe Center, call Sarah, at (203) 562-5129, ext. 110; at QVHD, call (203) 248-4528.
Recipients of the free vaccine must complete a form stating that they do not have health insur-ance and they do not have the funds to pay for a flu shot. (Persons who have Medicare, Medicaid or any other form of insurance are not eligible to partic-ipate in this opportunity.)
Flu shots for uninsured
T h e N o r t h H a v e n S u b s t a n c e A b u s e A c t i o n C o u n c i l a n d the Drug Enforcement Administration is scheduled to accept expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs on Saturday, Oct. 26, from 10 a.m. to 2 pm. at the Recreation Center, 7 Linsley Street. The service is free and anonymous.
The initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that
remain in home cabinets are susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse.
Rates of prescription drug abuse in the United States are high, as are the num-ber of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs.
In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines—flush-ing them down the toilet or throwing them in the
trash—both pose potential safety and health hazards.
Proper disposal of medi-cation is a significant way to lower the risk of groundwa-ter contamination.
