Special town meeting on


sale of Centrellas house
By SHAW ISRAEL IZIKSON
WINSTED A special town meeting is scheduled for Monday, Dec. 21
at 7:15 p.m. at Town Hall.
On the agenda is a vote on the
proposed sale of the former residence
of the Centrella family, located at 198
Gilbert Ave.
The house, located at 198 Gilbert
Ave., was co-owned by former Finance
Director Henry Centrella and his exwife, Gregg.

In January 2014 after a two- year


investigation by the town and State
Police, Centrella pleaded guilty to five
charges of larceny in his appearance
at Litchfield Superior Court.
In August 2014, Judge James Ginocchio sentenced Centrella to 20 years
in prison, suspended after 11 years,
and five years probation.
He also has to repay at least $2.7
million to the town of Winchester.
Centrella was the finance director
for the town from 1977 until he was

fired on January 2013.


As part of his plea deal with prosecutors, he surrendered his interest
in his house.
Originally, his ex-wife Gregg
Centrella would not surrender her
interest in the property to the town
but eventually she did with the town
officially obtaining the property in
May 2014, according to the towns
online assessor database.

Fallen veterans honored


By SHAW ISRAEL IZIKSON
WINSTED Forty residents honored those who served in the armed

the Daughters of the American Revolution and coincided with the national
Wreaths Across America event.

According to the national website


at www.wreathsacrossamerica.org,
the Winsted event was one of more
than 600 ceremonies held nationwide.

with children.
Sergeant Kevin Kinahan was one of
the members of the police department
who took part in the event.
Its always good when we can

Selectmen expend funds for police


By SHAW ISRAEL IZIKSON
WINSTED The Board of Selectmen approved several expenditures
during its regular meeting on Monday,
Dec. 7.
By the request of Winchester Police
Department Chief William Fitzgerald,
the board unanimously approved a
bid waiver in order to upgrade the
departments communication infrastructure.
The board approved $37,200 in
order to pay for system upgrades to
Accucom Consulting of Westport.
In October, Fitzgerald said the
towns emergency communication
system failed and the department had

to resort to using a backup.


This system is a critical infrastructure to town as it is used by police, fire,
ambulance, emergency management
and public works, Fitzgerald wrote in
an email exchange with The Winsted
Journal. The last time the system
was replaced was in 2005. The age of
the backup [system currently in use]
worries me because if this fails we have
no other communications. If this does
fail, we have State Police on standby
communications.
Fitzgerald added that the system
has been failing for years.
In a letter to the Board of Selectmen, town Purchasing Director Mark
Douglass supported Fitzgeralds

request.
This upgrade will enhance efficiency in the police department and
allow a better communication with
officers in their cruisers, Douglass
wrote. The vendor is compliant and
approved by the FBI, Connecticut
Collect and V2 Collect system requirements. This is the first step in
the police department assessment of
communications needs.
In an email to Douglass, Fitzgerald
wrote that Accucom is currently the
departments vendor for its communication needs.
They are the only vendor that

Peebles to shut down


By SHAW ISRAEL IZIKSON

BARKHAMSTED Peebles
Department Store at Mallory
Brook Plaza on 380 New Hartford Road is closing.
At the beginning of this
month going out of business
signs were put out in front of
the store.
According to First Selectman
Don Stein, parent company
Stage Stores Inc. of Houston,
Texas, is closing several stores
across the United States.
It was there for quite a
while, Stein said. It seemed

to be pretty popular so its sad


to see it go. In a small town
every little bit of business helps.
Tractor Supply [next door to
Peebles] has been successful because there seems to be people
always in it.
Before Peebles opened it was
an Ames Department Store and
before that W.T. Grant operated
a store at the location.
According to Stage Stores
corporate website at www.
stagestoresinc.com, the company owns 850 stores in 40 states,
including Peebles, Stage and
Goodys stores.

Barkhamsted Store Manager


Elaine Miller said she could not
comment for this story.
Company representative
Bria Wendy, who is the director of public relations for
Stage Stores Inc., said the store
opened in 2005.
It is our only Peebles store
in Connecticut, Wendy said.
We announced this summer
that, as per our strategic plan,
we are going to close 90 stores
over the next three years in
order to focus on strengthening
our company. We want to focus
on stores that deliver greater

Holiday fun in Colebrook


By ALICIA KIRSCH

COLEBROOK Organizers
of the Saturday, Dec. 12, Holiday
Fair worked for three or four
months to prepare for the event,
and the result was a completely
rearranged floor plan to accommodate double the amount of
vendors as in years past.
Thirty vendors from Massachusetts, New Hampshire and
Rhode Island gathered in the
Community Center and Town
Hall, selling everything from
food and dog treats to jewelry
and clothing.
Connecticut crafter Sandy
Krajick was there with her Bags
with Personality for the third
year in a row.
She said that she mostly just
sells her bags during the holiday
season at fairs.
Janel Norris of The Fairy
Stitch Factory, on the other hand,
sells her fairy and steampunk
jewelry, costumes, and accessories all year long at conventions
all over the New England region.
The Jammin Chicks, Carol
Parent and Julia Stewart, were
also there selling their homemade jams.

berries and mixed fruit whereas

profitability for us.


Stein said the store has eight
full-time employees and several
part-time employees.
Every job matters in this
economy, Stein said.
As for the possibility of a
new store taking the place of
Peebles, Stein said that he does
not know of any prospects on
the horizon.
Barkhamsted does not have
a lot of incentives for businesses, he said. We have tax incentives to improve retail space,
but retail is tough. Maybe this
is something that our Economic
Development Commission can
consider.

Leon Reich, lives in Brooklyn,
N.Y.

Winsted
Cohen leaves YMCA
By SHAW ISRAEL
IZIKSON
WINSTED Jay Cohen
served his last day as the branch
director of the Northwest
YMCA on Friday, Dec. 14.
Cohen started working
for the Northwest YMCA in
October 2011.
According to his resume
on LinkedIn, before working
at the Northwest YMCA he
worked as the CEO for Community Camps Inc. from February 2003 to October 2011.
The company, located in
Glastonbury, is a consulting
firm for municipal parks and
recreation departments and
non-profit organizations.
In an interview with The
Winsted Journal, Cohen would
not talk about his new job.
I dont want to focus on
that, Cohen said. I just want
to focus on my time and the
YMCA.
Cohen said he enjoyed his
time at the Northwest YMCA.
I enjoyed the opportunities to engage the community,
he said. I enjoyed the opportunity to break down the view
some people have as the YMCA
being just for its members and
to promote it as a community
support organization.
Cohen said that he enjoyed
the various programs and
events that he had a hand in
co-organizing.
My last day is during the
Freezin for a Reason fundraiser on Dec. 11. Im proud
and excited to go out on that
note, Cohen said. Last years

Dancing With The Stars was


a lot of fun. Were already
planning for that in March,
and Im glad that will continue
on. Beyond the fundraising
work we were able to do, it was
great serving for the last two
years as the executive director
of the Winsted Youth Service
Bureau.
Cohen said he will be taking
many good memories of his
time at the Northwest YMCA.
I will be taking with me
memories of how our programs and services impacted
individual children, he said.
Weve had children go to
Camp Wa Wa Segowea for
two weeks and, even though
it was only for two weeks, they
go home with so much more
confidence, independence and
maturity that will take them
far in life. The fact is that everything we do at the YMCA is
available to everyone. Money
is never a reason that someone
gets turned away. We give away
hundreds and thousands of
dollars each year for programs
in child care and our camp.
Cohen said that the organization has not chosen a
replacement for him and they
are still conducting a search
process.
My advice for the next
branch director is to get to
know people and the leaders
of the community, Cohen
said. They are wonderful to
work with, whether they are
members of the school staff,
community volunteers or
parents, they are all wonderful
partners in everything we do.

Eagle Scout gives back to community


By KATERI KOSEK
WINCHESTER CENTER
Gilbert senior Cassius Cash Pac
was honored recently at Hurlbut
Field in Winchester Center for
earning the rank of Eagle Scout,
which he did by building an information kiosk at the Winchester
Land Trust property.
Pac is a member of Boy Scouts
Pack 27.
Mayor Candy Perez was in
attendance, as well as State Rep.
Jay Case (R-63), who brought a
citation from the State General
Assembly congratulating Cash on
his achievement.
Pac is president of the National
Honor Society and senior class vice
president at The Gilbert School.
To design the kiosk, he worked
with the construction teacher
Donald Crossman, and used the
schools construction facilities and
their computer program CAD.
He knew about the land trust
because theres a land trust property near his home, said Jennifer
Perga, president of the Winchester
Land Trust. He was interested in
the outdoors and wanted to do
a project that would benefit the
land trust.
According to Perga, the project
took eight to 10 months. First, he
met with the members of the trust
to see if their ideas meshed. He
had to raise funds to buy all of his
own materials, and after designing
and preparing the materials in
school, he got family, friends, and
members of his troop to help put
the kiosk together.
At 40 acres, Hurlbut Field
is one of the bigger properties
of The Winchester Land Trust,
which preserves 370 acres. Perga
explained that the land trust
bought it with money from the

Laundromat closed
By SHAW ISRAEL IZIKSON
WINSTED Quarters for
my Daughters Laundry at 724
Main St. has closed after almost
a year in business.
The laundromat opened in
October 2014 where Angels
Touch laundromat was located
for many years.
This week, workers were seen
inside of the laundromat building dismantling and taking apart
laundry machines.
A sign still hanging on the
door says the laundromat will be
closed on Tuesdays while several
stacks of newspapers printed in
August can be seen through the
window.
The store was operated by
Kirke Charles and his fiancee,
Wanda Everson.
The two also operate a Quarters for my Daughters Laundry
in Enfield.
According to Charles, the
laundromat has been closed for
the past three months.
I cant do the laundromat
anymore because the owner sold
the building, Charles said in
an interview with The Winsted
Journal.

According to the towns assessors database, the building


is owned by Aprad Buzas under
the name Angels Touch.
Buzas could not be reached

Governor does
the right thing
on weapons

n Thursday, Dec. 10, Governor Dannel P. Malloy


(D) announced his intention to sign an executive
order to deny firearms permits to people who are
on government watchlists, including those who are on
Homeland Securitys no-fly list and various federal terrorism watch lists.
The executive order mandates that the State Police
cross-references the name of a permit applicant with a
government watchlist.
Malloy made this announcement eight days after the
shootings in San Bernardino, Calif., which killed 14 people
and injured 24.
While the investigation into the shooting is still ongoing,
the investigation so far has noted that one of the shooters
had been radicalized by a terrorist organization.
A press release from the governors office noted that, between 2004 and 2014, data from the FBI shows that people
on a terrorism watch list have tried to purchase firearms
and explosives 2,233 times and that they succeeded 90 percent of the time.
Coincidentally, the governor made his announcement
four days before the third anniversary of the Sandy Hook
Elementary School shooting in Newtown, which took place
on Dec. 14, 2012. Twenty-year-old Adam Lanza killed 20
children and 6 adults.
This led to Malloy creating and signing into law gun
safety legislation that, in Connecticut, banned the sale of
certain weapons and high-capacity bullet magazines and
required background checks for all gun purchases.
Malloy has been on the right track when it comes to gun
safety and keeping residents safe.
This is important considering that, among many other
things, some school districts are not up to date on security
protocols.
For example, at a selectmens meeting on Nov. 19, Winchester School District Receiver Robert Travaglini said that
the school district did not have proper security protocols in
place until last November.
Travaglini said that employees in the school district did
not have identification cards, that there was not a visitors
sign-in or sign-out book at Batcheller Early Education Center, and that he even sent a retired police officer into one of
the district schools to test the security by walking into the
building and into classrooms.
Travaglini said that the retired police officer was never
stopped by anyone when he went into the school building.
At the meeting, Travaglini said, Again, I know this is a
small town. Regardless, as all of you know in our brave new
world, things happen. It only takes one time.
Travaglini should be applauded for beefing up school security, but the school district should be ashamed for taking
nearly three years after the Sandy Hook Elementary School
shooting to put the new measures in place.
This is why the new gun laws Malloy has put in place are
so important.
Unfortunately, no matter how strong they are, not every
security measure a school puts into place can protect everyone.
However, these laws have lessened the chances of another
school shooting ever happening in Connecticut, and hopefully lessened the chances of a mass shooting in the state
similar to San Bernardino, Calif.
Malloy should be applauded for standing up to protect
the residents of Connecticut.

The history of the Gator Parade

n 2004, firefighter Gaeton


Gator Gangi and Fire Chief
Joe Beadle of Winsteds Engine
Four came up with an unusual
way for the city to celebrate the
Christmas season by having a
parade in December.
They decided to deck fire
trucks and other municipal
vehicles with flashing lights and
ornaments and drive through
town blowing horns and blaring
sirens. The event would be called
The Winchester Holiday Parade.
Gaeton Edward Gangi had
served 30 years with the Winsted
Fire Department. He was a native
of Torrington and a long-time
resident of Winsted. Gator as
he was nicknamed, graduated
from The Gilbert School and was
a decorated Vietnam War veteran.
He had served in the U.S. Army
and received the Purple Heart and
three other service medals. According to his family and friends,
Gangi enjoyed a joke, spoke his
mind, and enjoyed having fun.
The Holiday Parade was scheduled to debut on Christmas Eve
of 2004. Tragically, just two days

On Winsted
& Winchester
Verna Gilson

before the event, on Dec. 22,Gator Gangi suffered a heart attack


and died at Hartford Hospital. He
was 60 years-old. Parade organizers and Gangis co-workers were
shocked by his death, but decided
that he would have wanted the
parade to go on. The parade was
held, as planned, on Christmas
Eve of 2004, but was renamed the
Gator Parade in Gangis honor. It
has since become an annual Winsted tradition. According to one
fellow-fireman, Gaeton would
have enjoyed the parade; it was
the type of event that summed
up his outlook on life.
The original route of the Gator Parade wound through many
streets in town and generally
lasted two to three hours. With
the ever-increasing popularity
of the parade and the growing
number of vehicles participating

demagogue Huey Long could


get elected and do to the United
States what Hitler and Mussolini
were doing in Europe.
So Lewis, a Nobel Prize winner in literature, raised a possibility that was never advanced
because an assassin ended Longs
promising political career before
he could run for president.
Although a Trump third-party candidacy would be more
likely to take votes from the
Republican candidate and give
the presidency to Hillary Clinton, the similarities between a
Trump campaign and the Long/
Windrip story gave me an excuse
to take another look at Lewis
cautionary tale.
In the process, I came across a
remark, often wrongly attributed
to Lewis, about how fascism in
America would be disguised as
patriotism. I found it in a New
York Times account of a sermon
at the Riverside Church in 1938,
back when the paper regularly
covered Sunday sermons in the
citys churches.
When and if fascism comes
to America, it will not be labeled
made in Germany; it will not
be marked with a swastika; it
will not be even called fascism
it will be called, of course, Americanism.
The sermon was not by Lewis,
whose novels did not get him
many pulpit invitations, but by
a Yale Divinity School professor
named Halford Luccock. It was

each year, the route, by necessity,


has been scaled down. The parade is still held within the city
limits, but it now only lasts about
ninety-minutes.
The noise and fun that the
Gator Parade generates has
remained unchanged over the
years. The only rule is that vehicles must be decorated and
approved by the Fire Chief, in
order to participate. The festive
procession typically includes
local fire engines and police
cars, as well as the Winsted Elks
Antlers, the Winsted Public
Works Department, the Winsted
Area Ambulance Association,
and vehicles from other towns.
Decorations are purchased by
the members of each company
or town employees at their own
expense, and, on average, 20 to
30 vehicles and nearly 150 individuals participate.

along the way, and Santa almost


always makes an appearance at
the parade. The convoy rolls
along slowly, so spectators can
get a good view, and after the
parade is over participants gather
at the Elm Street Fire Station to
celebrate.
The Gator Parade is one
of many annual events held
in Winsted that appeals to all
ages. It is intended to brighten
spirits during the long winter
season and is in memory of
an individual who was greatly
respected by the community.

The Sanders and Trump


insurgencies: Whats next?
It is not often that Democratic and Republican insurgent
candidates for President achieve
such prominence and maintain
staying power against the establishment pols of the two-party
duopoly that manages elections
for the plutocracy that finances
campaigns. The media are taking
the insurgents seriously, which
means that the polls are being done
regularly on candidate positions
and their match up with other
primary candidates.
Both Bernie Sanders and
Donald Trump start out with the
first signal of viability the mass
media demands money to
spend on campaigning. Sanders
is surprising the pundits with his
ability to attract small contributions, putting him on the road to
raising a remarkable $70 million or
more. He is not dependent on the
fancy fat cat fundraisers that cater
exclusively to the very wealthy in
New York City, Los Angeles or
other watering holes for the rich
partisans.
Billionaire Trump, on the
other hand, actually exaggerates
his wealth as a campaign tactic,
bragging that he can finance his
entire presidential run if necessary.
His nobody owns me image
has resonated with more than a
few voters, who may not realize
that The Donald is a card-carrying member of the New York
plutocracy.
The loud and raging Trump
campaign tells us what can happen
when voters follow their impulses

without doing their homework.


The burst of headline-grabbing,
braggadocious phrases from Mr.
Trump leaves his dubious business dealings, mistreatment of
workers, acceptance of corporate
welfare and his various tax escapes
in the shadows (See David Cay
Johnstons piece, 21 Questions
for Donald Trump). Words over
deeds so far.
Up to now, Trump, the current
Republican front runner, holds or
raises his poll numbers with each
outrageous remark that appeals
to the hardcore right not all
of them voters by the way who
love his bashing of minorities,
his sexism and his ripping into
other candidates. This is the latest
Trump reality show.
The Republican establishment
that went for the Bushes, Mitt
Romney, Ronald Reagan and
Richard Nixon is beginning
to fear the continued success of

ore frightening than


Donald Trump becoming the Republican nominee for president is
Donald Trump being denied
the nomination, running as a
third party candidate, splitting
the informed vote and being
elected president. Cant happen?
It did once but only in a novel
written during the rise of fascism.
The book describes how
the Trumpish Berzelius Buzz
Windrip, a nativist senator from
the South, got elected president in 1936. Running against
incumbent President Franklin
Roosevelt and the fictitious
Republican Walt Trowbridge,
Windrip won the election, disbanded Congress, sent dissenters
to concentration camps and
turned the United States into a
fascist state, all in the name of
American greatness.
My one great ambition, said
Windrip, is to get all Americans
to realize that they are and must
continue to be the greatest race
on the face of the earth. Remind
you of anyone?
Of course, we never had a
Buzz Windrip type seriously run
for president until Trump. Alf
Landon was the 1936 Republican
candidate and he carried only
two states in a Roosevelt landslide. But when novelist Sinclair
Lewis wrote about the election
of Windrip 80 years ago in It
Cant Happen Here, there were
concerns that the charmismatic

A5

If You Ask Me
Dick Ahles

delivered on Sept. 11, 1938.


Luccock feared America
might be more accepting of fascism in those dark, Depression
days because, never, probably,
has there been a time when there
was a more vigorous effort to
surround social and international questions with such a fog
of distortion and prejudice and
hysterical appeal to fear.
Luccock was especially troubled by a forgotten fight over a
wage-hour and child labor bill
and the bitter opposition to
instituting a minimum wage of
$11 a week. The debate, he
said, had been used to whip up
fear and prejudices against causes
of human welfare.
The opposition said the legislation would lead to a socialist
dictatorship. Congressman John
McClellan of Tennessee warned
that a minimum wage of 25 cents
an hour would result in massive
unemployment in a nation just
showing limited signs of a recovery. When the southerners
suggested a lower minimum for
their region, David Dubinsky
of the garment workers union
countered with a plan to lower
the wages of Southern congress-

men first.
And President Roosevelt, in
one of his radio Fireside Chats,
engaged in what his opponents
considered class warfare:
Do not let any calamity
howling executive with an income of $1,000 a day tell you
that a wage of $11 a week is
going to have a disastrous effect
on all American industry, said
Roosevelt. The bill passed and
capitalism survived.
Of course, dressing hate in
Americanism goes back much
farther. Those like me with Irish
and German roots may have
forgotten that their ancestors
first persecutors in the mid-19th
century were members of a group
known as the American Party. It
is better remembered today by its
nickname, the Know Nothings,
because this semi-secret party instructed its adherents to answer
all questions about their activities
by replying, I know nothing.
What they did know was
that their Christian-Protestant
nation was being overwhelmed
by foreigners from Germany
and Ireland whose first loyalty
was not to America but to the
Pope rather like the Syrian
refugees and their devotion to
Mohammed.
But they let us in anyway,
millions of us, even the bad ones.

his provocations.
Karl Rove, the arch-strategist
for George W. Bush, just wrote a
column in the Wall Street Journal
titled Trump is the Democrats
Dream Nominee.Rove noted poll
after poll to support his thesis
low overall favorability ratings,
low trustworthiness rankings.
Hillary Clinton trumps Trump on
three important characteristics,
by the Quinnipiac poll. She has
sizable leads on questions such as
the right kind of experience to be
president (never mind what kind
of judgement), cares about the
needs and problems of someone
like you, andshares your values.
Rove goes on to imagine
the kinds of television ads the
Democrats would release should
Trump get the Republican nomination. During the Cleveland
debate, Trump asserted that he
took his companies to bankruptcy
four times having, he brazenly
asserted, taken advantage of
the laws of our country. Rove
writes that the footage might be
followed by compelling testimony
from contractors, small-business
people and bondholders whom
he stiffed. Other Republican
strategists worry that, should he
head the ticket, Trump could bring
down candidates from Congress
to state legislatures, all the way
down to mayors.
Outsiders wonder when the
establishment Republicans are
going to make their move. The
plethora of well-funded primary
candidates is complicating any
quest to back a single challenger.
But simply publicizing Trumps
business record and hoping and
waiting for Trump to increase
the self-destructive severity of his
outrageous statements may be all
they can do.
Bernie Sanders has a different
kind of challenge. Polling a solid
second to Hillary Clinton nationwide and running very close
in Iowa and New Hampshire,
he has to freshen and broaden
his message. During the past six

months, he has demonstrated,


with a tiny campaign staff, and a
swelling campaign treasury, that
he can attract larger audiences
than Hillary has been able to do
thus far and that his campaign has
plenty of money in reserve.
In the coming weeks, Bernie
has to increase the number of
full-time people on the ground
to organize and get-out-the-vote
to win Iowa and New Hampshire
before Hillarys advantage in the
southern state primaries registers
on March 1, 2016. More pressingly,
he must educate the public about
the vast differences between his
voting and policy record and that
of Clinton when she was a Senator
and Secretary of State. Some of
his supporters believe that he has
not been doing this strenuously or
sharply enough.
Finally, Senator Sanders, who
has come a long way without
anyone elses advice, now needs
to start diversifying his strategy
by becoming more receptive to the
opinions of those outside of his
team. His campaign seems repetitive and unimaginative. Needless
to say, he has enormous material
to work into his daily stump
speeches and special subject addresses. Sanders also has to make
more news, especially because
his Democratic Party operatives
are not allowing more than six
debates where he can contrast
with Hillary Clinton before very
large television viewing audiences.
Senator Sanders will need
more prominence if he really
wants to overtake Clinton. Making
good on his promise to endorse
the eventual Democratic nominee
would mean to his followers a ripe
opportunity to get the winner
of the Democratic Primary to
specifically endorse much of the
Sanders agenda beforehand.
Consumer advocate and former
presidential candidate Ralph Nader
grew up in Winsted and is a graduate of The Gilbert School. He is the
founder of the American Museum
of Tort Law, located at 654 Main St.

Just three weeks left Yellowjackets season starts with scrimmage


in regular season
By JESSE WILLIAMS

Last week, 11-5; for the season, 123-85. Pick of the Week,
1-0; for the season, 9-5.

s long as I reach double-digits in wins Im


not going to complain.
In addition, I hit my Pick of
the Week with the Packers win
over the Cowboys, so all and
all it was a decent week.
With just three weeks left
in the regular season, Saturday
night football returns. Its not
necessarily a marquee game,
but the Jets at Dallas has definite Wild Card implications.
The Jets are in the thick of
the race and they cant afford
a letdown against Dallas when
you consider they end the regular season with the Patriots
at home and the Bills on the
road. With the Steelers and
Chiefs both sporting the same
win-loss record (8-5) and both
with favorable schedules, a Jet
letdown against the Cowboys
could be disastrous.
Enough said. Lets get on
with this weeks games, and
as always, good luck with
your picks.
Thursday, Dec. 17
Tampa Bay at St. Louis
Though slim, the Bucs still
have a chance at a Wild Card
spot, so Ill stick with them on
the road, 23-20.
Saturday, Dec. 19
NY Jets at Dallas
This is a huge week for the
Jets, and I think their recent
success continues with a hardfought 27-23 victory.
Sunday, Dec. 20
Arizona at Philadelphia
This is a big game for both
teams. The Eagles almost have
to win, while the Cards are
starting to see the Seahawks
in the rearview mirror. Cards
win, 33-27.
Atlanta at Jacksonville
The Falcons are headed
further south, while the Jags
are headed upward. Jags win
at home, 30-20.
Buffalo at Washington
This is a must-win for the
Redskins if they want to keep
pace with the Eagles and Giants. The Bills will play tough,
but the Skins prevail at home,
24-19.
Carolina at NY Giants
Somebody has to beat the
Panthers, so why not the Giants? Go, Eli! Giants win in a
huge upset, 34-29.

Pinks
NFL Picks

C. Pink Bunel
Chicago at Minnesota
At this point in the season
there are a lot of must-win
situations. With that said, Ill
stick with the Vikings in this
one, 23-17.
Houston at Indianapolis
Indy has problems on both
sides of the ball. Houston
struggles on only the offensive
side. I like the Texans in this
one, 20-16.
Kansas City at Baltimore
The Chiefs are rolling and
continue to do so against an
injury depleted Raven team.
Chiefs win, 24-17.
Tennessee at New England
Can you say no brainer? I
can. Pats win big, 34-20.
Cleveland at Seattle
Go, Johnnie, go, not this
week. Its go, Russell, go.
Seattle wins a tighter-thanyou-think game, 29-23.
Green Bay at Oakland
I like the Raiders and how
they play, but now that head
coach Mike McCarthy has
taken over the play calling I see
the Pack continuing their resurgence. Packers win, 33-27.
Denver at Pittsburgh
Im making this my Pick
of the Week. The Steelers are
really rolling, and they will
continue to do so against the
Broncos. Pittsburgh wins,
27-17.
Miami at San Diego
Not much at stake in this
one. Im kind of a closet Dolphin fan, so Ill stick with them
on the road, 29-24.
Cincinnati at San Francisco
The Bengals suffered big
time with the loss of QB Andy
Dalton, but they will prevail in
this one, 23-10.
Monday, Dec. 21
Detroit at New Orleans
Another two teams going
nowhere, but you have to pick
someone. I like Drew Brees
and the Saints at home, 35-24.

WINSTED In a somewhat
casually formatted scrimmage
that used a running clock and
only awarded one free throw on
fouls, The Gilbert Schools probable starting five looked confident against OBrien Technical
School at Gilbert on Thursday,
Dec. 10.
With a core group of experienced players and a surgical perimeter shooting game, Gilbert
gave pause to those commentators who have already counted
them out as contenders this
year, while still shaking off some
offseason rust.
I thought they were a little
ahead of where we thought we
would be at this point, said head
coach Mark Douglass.It showed
me some good things.
Although Douglass substituted liberally throughout the contest, a core group that included
seniors Garrett Lombardo, Matt
Coon, Ian Ryan and Jake Wendel played with confidence and
poise, creating good open looks
and staying aggressive off the
dribble. This group propelled the
Yellowjackets to an early 7-2 lead
in the first period, as both Coon
and Lombardo found space and
converted on perimeter shots.
One possession early in the
game saw the Yellowjackets
scrambling for a loose ball that
was eventually controlled and
kicked out to Coon, who sank
a long three with the shot clock
ticking down.
The Yellowjackets also had
some good looks on baseline
drives and cuts, and Lombardo
made several beautiful hard
passes through traffic to give his
teammates inside opportunities,
but Gilbert did not convert
nearly as many of these as they
did from mid- and long-range
positions.
Douglass still said he was happy with his offenses progression
at this early point in the season.
I know we can shoot, said
Douglass, I know we have that
perimeter game. Its the inside
game that I needed. Ian [Ryan]
made a few nice moves along the
baseline. They may or may not
have gone in, but hes getting the
shots off.
Where Gilbert struggled
throughout the night, in what
Douglass called a mindset
problem, was rebounding. Facing a team that the Yellowjackets
matched up very well in terms
of size, Gilbert was consistently
outmuscled and outmaneuvered
on the boards.
We need to get better at rebounding, said Douglass.They

gotta learn to put a body on a
body. You gotta want a rebound,
you gotta be a little physical.
Thats the one glaring thing I
took out of that.
On defense the Yellowjackets
still showed their veteran pedigree, collapsing on penetration
and staying disciplined in the
zone, but seemed almost in a
daze as soon as a shot went up.
Early in the second period,
OBrien lofted a 20-foot airball.
No Gilbert player was anywhere
near as OBrien casually re-

covered the ball and put up an


uncontested layup, which also
missed. OBrien again managed
to grab the rebound before the
frustrated Yellowjackets finally
fouled.
The majority of OBriens
points came off of second-chance
opportunities, Douglass said.
On the positive side, Douglass
praised in his teams transition
play. Even with subs on the floor,
the Yellowjackets were confident
and aggressive, pushing the pace
off of turnovers, hustling down

the court to create 2-on-1 or


3-on-2 situations and drawing
fouls.
I was very pleased with that,
said Douglass, I tell em, if were
always in that transition game,
you never have to worry about
running an offense.
During the two 10-minute periods where the probable starters
played significant minutes, the
scores were 9-9, and 12-15 in
favor of OBrien. Gilbert opens
the season on Saturday, Dec. 19,
at Trinity Catholic in Stamford.

Gilbert girls fall to Thomaston in opener


By JESSE WILLIAMS
WINSTED The Gilbert
School girls basketball team fell
to Thomaston 56-25 in its season
opener on Tuesday, Dec. 15.
We were impressed with the
effort our girls put in, especially
the new, young players, said Kurt
Root, assistant and JV coach of
the team.
Thomaston is the two-time

defending state champion, Root


said, and is one of the premier
programs in the state. Gilberts
program has only recently
emerged, winning eight games
last seasons after winning only
one over the previous two years.
We saw the best team were
going to see maybe ever, said
Root. And we came out real
strong, rebounding, with good
tempo.

Thomaston eventually overwhelmed the Yellowjackets


with defensive pressure and
experience, Root said, although
he was optimistic for the team
going forward.
If we take this effort, and put
the same effort in the rest of the
season, were going to win a lot
of games, he said.

FOOD: MARSDEN EPWORTH

Busy With Holiday


Stuff ? Make Soup
No one goes to a museum
restaurant expecting a great
lunch. Generally, the food is soso. OK if you are starving. But
at the Wadsworth Atheneum
in Hartford, Leon Graham
and I stopped in to the little
cafe there on our way to a new
exhibit, and I had a wonderful soup I had forgotten about:
Thai chicken noodle.
The museums version was
fabulous. Silky, lime-spiked, a
little hot, a little salty with slivers of chicken and wonderful,
glassy noodles.
Now Thais eat with a fork
and spoon, that fork being the
best way to get at the noodles.
So no chop sticks here (unless you like to eat with chop

sticks). Of course the dish does


require a few Asian ingredients, but long gone are the
days when cilantro was an
exotic herb and getting bean
thread noodles required a trip
to some urban Asian community. These days you can
find everything you need at
the Sharon Farm Market and
at Guidos in Great Barrington,
and many of the bottled ingredients, such as fish sauce,
are available at La Bonnes in
Salisbury and Stop & Shop in
Canaan.
Its a very fast and easy soup
to pull together, a big plus
when people have to be fed
something and you are busy
with, you know, holiday stuff.

THAI CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP


INGREDIENTS

Peanut oil; 1 small onion,


chopped; 2 garlic cloves,
minced; 3 slices of ginger
root, skin left on; 3 Kaffir lime leaves; 2 lengths
of lemon grass; 20 pepper
corns; 1/4 teaspoon chili
flakes or more to taste; 4
cups chicken stock; 2 cups of
canned unsweetened coconut milk; 2 tablespoons fish
sauce; hand-torn strips from
1 cooked chicken breast; 2-4
tablespoons lime juice; baby
bok choy leaves slivered
lengthwise, fresh cilantro or
chopped chives and noodles
of your choice: udon, spaghetti or bean thread.

PROCEDURE

In a soup pot, gently saut the onion in a little oil and


after a few minutes add the
garlic, ginger slices, peppercorns and chili flakes. Do not
let anything brown. You are

just softening things up here.


Then add the broth, Kaffir
lime leaves, finely chopped
lemon grass, lime juice, fish
sauce, bok choy and simmer
gently for 10 minutes. Add
1 cup of the coconut milk
and taste. You are seeking a
balance here of sweet, sour,
spicy and salty, so this is
when you toy with this dish,
adding lime juice, or salt, or
fish sauce, or chili flakes or
even a sprinkle of sugar, and,
if you like, additional coconut milk to smooth it all out.
Now, while you are
heating the broth, cook the
noodles or bean threads.
When ready, strain the
soup over the chicken and
noodles in warm bowls and
garnish with cilantro leaves
or chopped chives. Eat and
dream of Thailand. Its good
to get away, even for a few
minutes.

FESTIVE CHEER: DARRYL GANGLOFF

Making a Bright
Holiday of Light

The ERDAJT holiday light display has won the Guinness World Record
for most lights on a residential property twice. The electricity costs
only about $350 per year, thanks to the LED bulbs.

or the first time ever,


my wife and I attempted
to put holiday lights
on a tree in our backyard. We
climbed a ladder and carefully
wrapped the string of bulbs
around the 19-foot beast,
straining to reach as close to
the top as possible.
Once we were done, we
plugged in the extension cord
and stepped back to admire
our work. The colorful lights
twinkled in the night, filling
us with holiday cheer . . . for
about 10 minutes. Then a fuse
blew and the tree vanished in
the darkness.
We looked at each other,
shrugged and decided to get
some inspiration with a visit
to the ERDAJT holiday light
display in Union Vale, NY.
The colorful spectacle is at
the home of Tim Gay, and its
named after his three children Emily Raejean (ER),
Daniel Arthur (DA) and John
Timothy ( JT). The family has
earned the Guinness World
Record for most lights on a
residential property twice
first in 2012 with 346,283
lights, and again in 2014 with
601,736 lights (thanks to a
donation of lights from Ritz
Crackers, which were lit for
three days to reclaim the
record).
This year, the display contains 509,863 lights which
is incredibly impressive,
especially when you consider
that the family began this
endeavor 20 years ago with
600 lights.
It started for the kids
in December 1995, the year

Emily was born, the family explains on their website. Since


then, the display has become
a reflection of the kids, and it
would not exist without them.
This has been a great adventure together, and we have
had so much fun doing this.
Over the years, the family
has turned the display into a
fundraising effort from donations to support the community. Theyve raised more than
$164,500 for the Union Vale
Fire Department and various
charities, primarily targeted toward aiding children and those
who are in need within our
surrounding communities.
This was our second year
visiting the ERDAJT holiday display, and it is simply
breathtaking. The lights are
synchronized to a playlist of
more than 200 songs, so its
a different experience every
time. We were lucky enough
to drive through it twice on
a calm weekday evening and
smiled as the seemingly limitless colors changed between
songs, illuminating the pond
with a beautiful reflection of
the sparkling lights.
Through their commitment to charity and their hard
work creating a magical light
display, the Gay family has
truly captured the spirit of the
holidays.
The ERDAJT holiday light
display is located at 8 Patrick
Drive, LaGrangeville, NY 12540.
It runs every day through Dec.
29. More information, along
with the full schedule, can be
found at www.erdajt.com.

This is Wonderland, which means Alice morphs


into a giant and then into just a peanut of a
person, all cleverly accomplished with trees and
landscaping changing sizes.
THEATER: MARSDEN EPWORTH
Alices Adventures in Wonderland

Another Look at an Old,


Non-Holiday Favorite

ts like a bunch of kids got


together one day, drafted
an outline, and invited the
neighbors over for a show. Of
course the Sherman Players
unique production of The
Adventures of Alice in Wonderland ( for starters, this is a
musical with songs by Christopher Rich) is more finished
than that, better rehearsed,
and its popping with schtick.
But its the chemistry between

actors and audience, with


friends drawn onto the stage
for brief bits, and the unbridled and sly glee of everyone
onstage that gives the undertaking its freewheeling, whatthe-hell air.
And while many theaters
around here are running
holiday shows like Miracle on
34th Street, which sold out
all weekend at Rhinebecks
Center for Performing Arts,

PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Faith Flanagan as Alice and the spade card holders from the left are Ryan Fitzgerald, Jack
Harding, Spencer Hanlon and Tyler Holm.
Sherman Players opted for
something different, Family
fare, as producer Robin Frome
put it the other exception
to the usual choices being
TheatreWorks in New Milford,
which scheduled Bell Book
and Candle, but shut down
precipitously on Friday with
infringement problems.
So Alice it was, although
Alice with lots of songs and
recorded accompaniment.
The play opens with the restless little girl, decked out, as
required, in blue with a white
pinafore, long blonde hair and
shiny Mary Janes, performed
last Sunday by Faith Flanagan
(she alternates with Nicole
Kalitsas). She wants more visuals in the books her big sister
reads her. Whats the use of
a book without pictures, she
sings, and off she goes, tumbling down the rabbit hole.
Down there she meets the
White Rabbit (Susan Abrams)
who cannot tell time. Abrams,
following the rule in this show
that anyone who can tap is encouraged to do so, is a pleasure
to watch. So is Drink Me (Talla
Hank), for the same reasons.
Anyone who can shimmy, riff

and brush, does it as often as


possible.
Of course this is Wonderland, which means Alice
morphs into a giant and then
into just a peanut of a person,
all cleverly accomplished with
trees and landscaping changing sizes. And, as always, Alice
encounters the cat-fearing
Kitty (Aubrey Hankin), a
gorgeous and spirited Carmen Miranda (Daisy Stott), a
French accented, excellently
costumed Caterpillar (Frome)
dragging on his meerschaum
pipe, an unflagging and
delightful vaudevillian for a
Mad Hatter (Steven Stott), a
languid and scene-stealing
March Hare (Josephine Harding), the droopiest dormouse
ever, Cheyenne Brown, and a
properly crazed and arrogant
Red Queen (Missy PlaymakerHanlon).
Directed by Beth Bonnabeau
and Robin Frome, in all this is
a brief and original version of a
not-holiday show that runs at
The Sherman Playhouse through
Dec. 27. For tickets and information, call 860-354-3622 or go to

MOVIE: LEON GRAHAM


The Danish Girl

Avoiding the Pain,


Settling for the Surface

he Danish Girl
is an oddly unmoving film. The
subject is brave: the true story
of a Danish man who risks
sex-reassignment surgery in
the 1920s with his wife's support. Yet somehow most of the
emotional power the movie
might have had is buried
under director Tom Hooper's
lavish, tasteful production
and his determined avoidance of anything probing or
unpleasant.
When the film opens, Einar
Wegener (Eddie Redmayne)
is a somewhat successful
landscape painter married
to Gerda (Alicia Vikander), a
painter of portraits that sell
poorly. They love each other,
but we know something is
amiss when he adjusts her
lipstick or strokes camisoles
wistfully. When Gerda asks
Einar to slip into a pair of
stockings and high heels and
a white dress to help her finish a portrait commission,
there is a palpable feeling that
something has changed.
On a lark, Gerda and Einar,
dressed as a woman named
Lili, attend a party where no
one notices a guest in drag.
Indeed, another guest, Henrik
(Ben Whishaw), hits on Lili

Watching him look for


signs, signals, gestures
of women around
him is perhaps the
most memorable
part of the film. He is
learning how to act as
a woman for the rest
of his life.
with conversation and a kiss.
Even though Einar flees in
confusion, his need to find a
true self grows quickly and
strongly. Ironically so does
Gerda's career as she begins
painting female nudes with
Lili's yearning face. Eventually Einar, now living openly
as Lili, decides to have the
dangerous surgery.
Hooper has always made
movies The King's Speech,
Les Miserables that are
gorgeous backdrops for fine
acting. As you would expect,
Redmayne, who won the 2015
best actor Oscar for impersonating Stephen Hawking,
morphs into Lili with the
ease and grace of a butterfly.
(Of course it helps that he
is almost pretty in real life.)
Watching him look for signs,

Store donates to Northwest YMCA

VETERANS

By ALICIA KIRSCH
at the Tomb of the Unknown
Soldier in Arlington, Va.
At the Winsted ceremony,
wreaths were placed at the
cemeterys memorial honoring
veterans who served in all five
branches of the military along
with wreaths honoring those
who served in the Merchant
Marines, veterans who were
Prisoners of War and are Missing In Action.
Daughters of the American Revolution member Lynn
Schrock co-organized and led
the event.
Schrock said that the organization starting to hold the event

in Winsted in 2010.
Its important to remember
everyone who has gone into
the service or who have served
their country, Schrock said.Its
important that we remember
them and that this should be
held during the holiday season.
State Rep. Jay Case (R-63) was
one of the residents present at
the ceremony.
Its an honor to be here
today, Case said. This is a
huge tribute to our veterans. Its
happening all across our nation,
and Im proud to be here where
were celebrating this for our
veterans.

BUDGET
Safety Dispatcher and Assistant
Tax Assessor, Bessette wrote.
Most recently, the Civil Service
Commission secured the services
of Larry Jetmore to assist in the
Winchester Police Department
sergeants promotional exams
and process.
The Department promoted
three patrol officers, Jason Hermenau, Kim Boyne and Robert
Varasconi, to sergeants in late
October.
The $3,800 for those services
should not have been applied to
the Civil Service Commission,
Bessette wrote. There are numerous personnel searches and
promotional processes planned in
the next several months including Police Officer, Public Safety
Dispatcher, Land Use Assistant,
Assistant Town Clerk and Public
Works Mechanic. All of these anticipated processes will exceed the
current approved budget for the

Civil Service Commission. They


are requesting written affirmation
that the expenses incurred by the
Commission exceeding its approved budget will be honored.
Commission Chairman Francis Delaney wrote to Bessette with
the request.
The number of processes
being requested as well as time
required for certain higher level
positions and the towns short
funding of the commissions
budget request are causing the
commissions budget to be exhausted, Delaney wrote. The
Commission must be funded to
continue work and there must
be complete transparency on the
causes for the additional funding
requirements.
Delaney added that the $3,800
to pay for Jetmores services
should have been applied to the
police department and not the
Civil Service Commission.

FREEZIN
The total time participants
would spend out of doors was
28 hours, according to Demetri. Groups were encouraged to
decorate and personalize their
shelters and campsites, he said,
and there was a cookout planned
at the center of the park.
The kids come up with a lot
of their own ideas, Demetri said.
When we asked them if they
wanted to do this, they jumped
on it.
Venture Crew 3 had decided
to use cardboard boxes for their
camp, Demetri said, both because it was more realistic and
because it was more feasible
this year, with no snow on the
ground. Other groups might
use camping tents, he said, or
anything that would not cause a
mess, especially as the event grew.
After featuring a total of eight

tents last year, Demetri said they


were expected two or three times
that many this year.
People are starting to spread
information, he said, Basically
were just looking for whatever
we can do to get the word out.
As far as other ways that
people can help, Demetri recommended speaking to local
church and community leaders, and continuing to support
organizations such as Friends
in Service to Humanity (FISH)
and the YMCA.
We got a lot of positive responses last year, said Demetri,
were expecting the same for
this year.

Winsted YMCA homeless shelter
and programs, call 860-3790708 or visit www.nwcty.org/
branches/winsted.htm.

DONATIONS
ing feeling. It always makes the
holidays seem more meaningful
to see that we can do something
for somebody else.
Kinahan said that over the
years residents have donated
thousands of toys to the department during the drive.
I would say that each year we
get a few hundred toys, he said.
Some years we get a little more
than others, but the amount of
toys that are donated to us has
been fairly consistent over the
years. This toy drive is important

to us because were members of


the community. Our job is not
just to enforce the law, but it is
also to protect people. I think that
part of the job is setting a good
example, including being a good
neighbor and a good person to
society by helping out. Its a big
part of our job. We want to show
people that law enforcement isnt
just about enforcing laws. Its a
big part of what we have to do,
but being part of the community
is an equally important part of
our success.

WINSTED Susan Cane of


The Creative Stitch on Friday,
Dec. 11, presented the Northwest
YMCA with 12 handmade quilts
to be distributed to residents
at the organizations homeless
shelter.
The quilts were made by 30
women in the community.
Cane takes leftover or donated
fabrics and cuts 7-inch squares
and then gives them to the other
women who then sew the tops
of the quilts. Cane then uses
her own batting and quilts them

herself though she emphasizes


that its truly a group effort. She
said that, while 12 were donated
this week, there are many more
in the works.
Cane said this is a labor of love
shes so happy to be able to do
because for many years, she was
a single mother. She said some
months it was hard enough to
pay rent and put food on the
table and she was grateful to
accept help from the community
when it was offered. She also says
that she has gotten to know the
residents at the YMCA, which is
next door to The Creative Stitch.

MEETING
The town retained David Sartirana of Northwest CT Realty to
market the property.
According to the towns
online assessor database, the
property was appraised this
year at $157,400 and assessed at
$110,180.
The house sitting on the 0.48
acres of land was built in 1929.
According to town records,
Patricia McKernan and Kelsey
McKernan of Farmington have
offered $70,000 in cash for the
property.
At the Nov. 16 selectmens
meeting, Economic Development Commission Chairman
Frank Berg spoke about the
property.
Berg is also a real estate agent
for Vision Real Estate and said he
is representing both McKernans.
He told the board that the
house on the property is in bad
condition and that it wiill cost
a lot of money to fix the defects
of the property, but did not give
an estimate.
I can tell you that Centrella
did not put any dime into home
improvements, Berg said. The
first thing you notice when you
drive up to the property is the
driveway needs to be redone
because there is a lot of heaves
and break down of asphalt on a
major level. Theres a structural

with a heavy mold problem. The
roof on the house itself is near the
end of its serviceable life. There
is a structural integrity problem
with the sill on the back side of
the house. And there is a water
problem. There is water getting
into that sill. There is a big water
problem in the basement because
water is not being diverted from
rain or winter thaw. There is a
couple sump pumps down there
managing the problem.
As per the town charter, the
selectmen must send the proposed sale of any town property
to a town meeting vote.
Also on the agenda is a proposal for the town to accept the
donation of vacant land located
on Ledge Road.
The land, also known as
Ledge Trail, is listed in the towns
assessor database as being coowned by Harmon and Albert
Tompkins.
The .06-acre property was
purchased by both Tompkins
in 1990.
According to the database,
the land has been appraised at
$1,900 and is assessed at $1,300.
According to the towns tax
collector database, the Tompkins have unpaid tax bills of
$332.31 dating back to 2011 on
the property.

68th year for Christmas Village attraction


By ERICA TAYLOR

TORRINGTON Carl Bozenskis Christmas Village, located


at 150 Church St. in Torrington,
has been a classic Connecticut
holiday tradition since 1947.
This year, the free family attraction opened on Dec. 6 and
is open daily through Christmas
Eve from 1 to 8:30 p.m. daily and
9 a.m. to noon on Christmas Eve.
Admission is free and includes
a visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus,
a glimpse into the elves workshop
and a look at Santas reindeer.
Hot chocolate and a free gift
from Santa is offered to those
can wait in line to see him. On
Friday night, Donna Ducotey, a
long time volunteer at Christmas
Village, shared details about the

work behind the scenes to make


Christmas Village the classic
draw it still is, after 68 years.
Its been maintained the
same as it was when it was opened
and still completely non-commercial, Ducotey said.
The first Friday night for
Christmas Village is a toy shower,
a fundraiser for the following
years gifts from Santa.
The following Sunday is the
parade where Santa and Mrs.
Claus come to town, after which
an opening ceremony welcomes
him back to his village.
Theres always people that
camp out like all morning to be
first in line, Ducotey said. On
average theres anywhere from
20,000 to 22,000 thousand people that come through the Village

during the three weeks its open.


Dave Sarasin of the Parks and
Recreation Department has been
volunteering at Christmas Village for the past 13 years. Sarasin
shared apple cider donuts offered
on site while speaking about the
process of setting up the various
stations the Village has to offer.
It takes about four to six
weeks because we all have different pieces that we do, Sarasin
said.
One person will do the outside decorating, another does
the log cabin, I do Mrs. Claus
and Santas rooms. We all have
a part in it.
Christmas Village is certainly
an anomaly and people come
from all over the state, and different parts of the country to

revisit and relive their childhood


memory.
Theres a lot of history and
a lot of feeling about this place,
Ducotey said.Most of the people
out there in line, if you ask them
are grandparents who came here
as kids, and now are out there with
their grandchildren.
Sure enough, Amy Yurgalevicz and her daughter, Audrey,
endured the long wait on Friday
evening to see Santa. Yurgalevicz
confirmed that she and her husband have been visiting since they
were young, and now bringing
their daughter for her fourth year.

Christmas Village, visit the facebook page at www.facebook.

Holiday cheer at library


By SHAW ISRAEL IZIKSON

WINSTED Cheer was had


by all at the Beardsley and Memorial Library on Saturday, Dec.
12, at the librarys annual holiday
open house.
The library served a large variety of Christmas cookies, desserts
and hot chocolate to 30 residents
who attended.
Christmas music was played by
Roger Tinckell from Shutesbury,
Mass.
Traditional songs are just so

beautiful, Tincknell said. Not


only do I like the sentiment and
religious aspects of it, but also
musically they are just so gorgeous.
This also includes Hanukkah
songs, even though there is not
as many because its not as big of
a holiday.
Tincknell said that Christmas
music has endured over the years
because the songs are a big part of
American culture.I never get tired
of playing them because I only play
these songs for one month during
the year, Tinckell said.
