Thanks to the hard work of over 57+ families in Corinth, 1.8 tons of roadside trash and a whopping 161 res (1.9 tons of res) were collected on Green Up Day! Other items collected included everything from a refrigerator and an upholstered chair, to a p-trap and some co-axial cable on a large spool. There is addional cleanup that is not reflected in our tonnage such as items like PVC pipe and a re that were rescued from the pile that day and claimed for repur- posing. Many of you reported having dropped off bags of trash before actual Green Up Day. Those numbers, too, are not included in the final weight reported. Also, many people took extra me to sort recyclables and redeemables, which not only helped to reduce the total amount of trash going into the landfill but also, in the case of the redeema- ble boles and cans, helped to offset the cost of taking it all away. All of that means that the total amount of trash and res collected in Corinth was even bigger than our numbers above indicate. A huge thank you to Joe Blodge and his crew for the help they give us year aer year before, during and aer Green Up Day and JoAnn and Bill at the Transfer Staon!!! And there are many others who help behind the scenes: Frank Roderick and the enre Conservaon Commission; Nancy Ertle and Susan Fortuna for fielding calls, helping with bag and grabber distribuon, and managing invoices; Northern Woodlands for use of their easels for our map and Peter Allen for providing the beauful map we have each year; and Ken Linge and the Blake Memorial Library for al- lowing us to display the map there and for distribung bags. I also want to thank the following people who helped me this year with hanging posters, distribung bags at the Transfer Staon the week before, and collecng bags on actual Green Up Day: Gary Apfel, Ginny Barlow, Kathy Chapman, Anne McKinsey, Tim O’Dell, Brad Wheeler, and my two won- derful grown-up kids who help me every year: Ben and Ashleen. And thanks to every one of you who go out there and fill up one bag or two or three or more and help keep this great Vermont tradion alive. Mark your calendars for May 6th, 2017. Green Up Day is always the first Saturday in May. ~ Rebecca Buchanan, Green Up Day Coordinator for Corinth ̴ Visit corinthvt.org for the latest news, agendas & minutes for all commiee meengs, maps, and more. ̴ Page 4 East Corinth Congregaonal Church’s 70th Annual “4 th” of July Chicken Barbecue Starts at 11 AM Chicken Barbecue (Sit-down or Take-out) half chicken, coleslaw, Mostaccioli, rolls, homemade pies, beverage Adults—$10.00, Children—$6.00 Take-out Chicken halves - $6.00 Annual Parade starts at 10:00 am— the Theme IS “SUMMERTIME FUN” (through the village to the Fairground) Float Entries: Gather for the Parade at 9:00 AM at the upper end of the village.

JULY– AUG.– SEPT. 2016 CORINTH QUARTERLY Comment on Town Forest Plan July 11 Corinth’s Town Forest Commiee has developed a 10-year plan for the use and manage- ment of the F.X. Shea Town Forest. The 94-acre forest on Wilson Road was given to the town by Susan Shea in memory of her husband, F. X. Shea. A network of hiking trails, either easy or strenuous, winds through a beauful hardwood forest with tall trees, wildflowers, and all sorts of birds and other animals. You can read the plan in the Town Forest Commiee secon of the website, or ask the Town Clerk to see the copy on file with her. Please take a look at what the commiee has proposed as a means for the for- est to provide benefits to all of the town’s people and to maintain the forest’s health. Orange County Forest- er David Paganelli assisted the commiee in draing the plan. The plan recognizes the need for mulple-use management goals for the 94 acres: Provide opportunies for place-based educaon Promote the use of the forest for low impact recreaon Sustain ecological health, natural funcons, and wildlife habitat Pracce sustainable forestry and mber harvesng At its regular meeng on July 11 at 7:00 PM, the Selectboard will listen to comments on the plan as part of the process of adopng it. Once adopted, the town’s Conservaon Commission will oversee the management of the forest. Our town forest is a treasure. Please come and learn more about it, and feel free to use it for any and all of the acvies allowed, including hiking and hunng. And if you are moved to pitch in to help maintain it by keeping the trails cleared and mowed, contact Dina Dubois or Kevin Eaton.
