RANDOLPH — Historical r esearcher T oddGriswold of Randolph likes a good mystery. In thecase of Vermont’s well known June 27, 1943, crashof a B-17F Flying Fortress—nicknamed Small Armby her crew, Bomber Crew 31—Griswold was de-
termined to uncover the true nature of the WorldWar II-era crash that involved the deaths of threeU.S. airmen.
In recent years, the Vermont crash has receivedconsiderable attention—it been featur ed on sev-eral television documentaries about aviationmysteries and World War II. And in light of lastweek’s Chicago-ar ea crash of one of the last r e-maining airworthy B-17s, Griswold’s findings areall the more newsworthy.
Griswold spent several months combing theSmall Arm crash site for physical evidence as well
as tracking down documents about the B-17F’savionics and flight crew.
“It was very exhilarating. I was able to gothrough 68-year -old air craft pieces and knowwhat they are and their importance to the crash.They are now going into the Randolph museumfor everyone to share, instead of someone’s man-tle or eBay,” Griswold said.
Last month, Griswold turned over aircraft arti-facts he discovered to the Randolph Historical So-ciety Museum in downtown Randolph.
BURLINGTON — V er-mont has the dubious honorof hosting yet another newillegal alien of the insect
kind—the stink bug. Thebug, which poses a threat tothe state’s apple cr op, wasfirst detected her e a fewweeks ago.
“As if V ermont didn’thave enough serious inva-sive introduced exotic peststo watch for , such as theemerald ash borer and Asianlong-horned beetle, we nowhave another Asian im-port—the br own marmorat-ed stink bug,” accor ding toDr. Leonard Perry, a pr ofes-sor at the University of Ver-mont Extension.
Perry alerted or chardowners and gar deners thatthe stink bug took up r esi-dence in V ermont just this
year. It has been in the U.S.over a decade slowly mov-ing north. It now calls 32states home.
“It feeds on many fr uits,vegetables, and farm cr ops,either making them inedibleor unsaleable,” Perry noted.“This stink bug is a nuisancein homes as well.”
First detected in easternPennsylvania in the mid1990s, this bug likely arrivedin imported packing materi-al from Asia. Even in its na-tive China, Kor ea, Japan,and Taiwan it is a formidablefarm pest.
“This pest has causedwidespread damage to ap-ples and peaches in mid-At-
lantic states,” accor ding toPerry. “Apples end up withmany br own spots, called‘cat facing’, that makes themunmarketable. Other fr uitcrops it damages with deadspots include other stonefruits like cherries, pear ,grapes, and brambles. Hostvegetable cr ops includecorn, tomatoes, beans, cu-cumbers, eggplants, andpeppers among others.”
According to UVM’s Per-ry, apple trees aren’t the onlylocal plant threatened by thestink bug invasion.
In addition to its tradi-tional apple crop, Vermont’sagricultural scene has seenthe r ecent gr owth of com-
mercial, albeit boutique lev-el, wine-grape production inthe Champlain Valley.
According to the U.S. De-partment of Agriculture, thebug’s stinky chemical hasbeen known to cause allergicskin reactions.
Unfortunately, p esticidesthat kill stink bugs are pow-erful and not recommendedfor use in houses and gar-dens. A v acuum c leaner i srecommended for r emovingthe bug indoors.
Orchard owners in V er-mont ar e asked to inspecttrees and fruits for the bugs.
Perry said that “re-searchers are working on bi-ological contr ols that willkill the pest and not pr eda-tor insects and other nativestink bugs that don’t cause
problems. Being an intr o-duced pest, no natural bio-logical contr ols ar e pr esentin infested areas.”
Perry advised V ermontresidents to check vehicles,campers, packing materials,or other objects that you’r etransporting fr om outdoorsduring the summer.
Meanwhile, local or chardowners ar e on the lookoutbrown marmorated stinkbug.
At Douglas Or chard andCider Mill in Shoreham, op-erated by the Douglas fami-ly since 1898, management isaware of the potential threat.
Orchard co-owner ScottDouglas said the stink bug isone more thing to add to hislist of agricultural worries.

QUINCY, Mass. — The New England-based National Fir e Pr otection Association(NFPA) last week released a study that looksat the current needs of America’s fire depart-ments as compared to those identified in as-sessments done in 2001 and 2005.
The goal of the project was to identify ma-jor gaps in the needs of the U.S. fir e serviceand to determine if the Department ofHomeland Security Federal Emer gencyManagement Agency’s (DHS/FEMA) Assis-tance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) pr ogramsare continuing to reduce the needs of fire de-
partments. The report looks at personnel and their ca-
pabilities, including staffing, training, certi-fication, and wellness/fitness, facilities andapparatus, personal pr otective equipment,fire pr evention and code enfor cement, theability to handle unusually challenging inci-dents, and communications and new tech-nologies.
Selected study findings: Nearly half (46 percent) of all fire depart-
ments that are responsible for structural fire-fighting have not formally trained all their
personnel involved in str uctural fir efight-ing, down fr om 55 per cent in 2001 and 53percent in 2005.
Seven out of ten (70 per cent) fire depart-ments have no pr ogram to maintain basicfirefighter fitness and health, down from 80percent in 2001 and 76 percent in 2005.
Nearly half (46 percent) of all fire depart-ment engines and pumpers wer e at least 15years old, down from 51 percent in 2001 and50 percent in 2005.
Half (51 per cent) of all fir e departmentscannot equip all fir efighters on a shift withself-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA),down from 70 percent in 2001 and 60 percentin 2005.
Two out of five (39 per cent) fir e depart-
ments do not have enough personal alertsafety system devices to equip all emergencyresponders on a shift, down fr om 62% in2001 and 48 percent in 2005.
Most communities do not assign at leastfour car eer fir efighters to an engine orpumper and so ar e probably not in compli-ance with NFPA 1710, Standar d for the Or-ganization and Deployment of Fire Suppres-sion Operations, Emergency Medical Opera-tions, and Special Operations to the Publicby Car eer Fir e Departments. The r ule r e-quires a minimum of four firefighters on anengine or pumper.

If there are joys associated with hav-ing the editor nameplate on yourdesk at your publishing office, I’d
guess that getting to writethe op-ed column is rightup there with such otherperks as directing yourstaff, balancing your budg-et, and pleasing your boardof directors.
Unlike reporters—whoare supposed to report ob-jectively but frequently sup-press inconvenient factswhich don’t match the de-sired correct-think purpose(see last week’s column onthis subject)—editors arefully free, under Fourth Es-tate code of conduct rules, to opine as theysee fit.
Even so, an editor can enter a credibilitydanger zone if the facts cited don’t matchfacts ignored to support an opinion. Thenthe editor ’s opinion is unsupported andbecomes subject to the laws of intellectualgravity just as Newton’s apple fell to earthas proof of the laws of physical gravity.
Case in point: in a recent editorial in oneof Vermont’s weeklies, the editor arguesthat yes, Vermont spends more, per-pupil, thanmost other states in public education, but (ad-vertising slogan) “we’re worth it.” (Identifi-
cations are redacted as a professional cour-tesy.)
“Products that have a high value costmoney,” according to theeditor, referring to the K-12product in Vermont (and cit-ing the 2009 per-pupil costof $15, 175).
“Pity the states at the bot-tom of the heap-—Utah($6,356), Idaho (($7,092),Arizona ($7,813), Oklahoma($7,885), Tennessee ($7,897)and Mississippi ($8,075)…,”he continued, arguing thatthese cheap states “…willlikely have to increase per-pupil spending significantlyif they are to offer their
youth the best possible education.” Vermont we often hear is the Education
State. Indeed, public-education advocatesin Vermont frequently cite the state as no. 1or no. 2 nationwide as measured by federal(NAEP) test scores.

Recently, this newspaper published astory about the potential threat ofthe emerald ash borer in Vermont.
Well, it’s time for the ash borer to share thespotlight because now there’s an even moreurgent insect threat—the odious stink bug.
This pest was discovered in Vermont a fewweeks ago. In the case of the stinky six-leggedfellow, commercial crops from apples to back-yard veggies may be at risk in the near future.
In the case of the ash borer, the threat is notto commercial agriculture, but rather to one ofthe state’s prime wilderness resources—theash tree.
The ash borer begins life hungry. While adult beetles chew on ash foliage
with little damage, look out for the beetle’slittle ones or larvae—they feed like demonswithin the bark of host ash trees.
The larvae’s 24/7 chewing cycle blocks wa-ter and nutrients getting to the trees. The re-sult? The ash trees—of which Vermont hasmillions in its forests—would die of starva-tion. State researchers have placed trapsaround the state to get a better of picture ofthe insect’s looming presence.
In the case of the stink bug, the pest hasbeen identified in Vermont and it does notbode well for our commercial and homesteadorchards, grape vineyards, and vegetable op-erations.
In this week’s paper, we take a look at thepotential threat of a stink bug invasion. If thisinsect finds the Green Mountain State to itslong-term liking, it won’t be a pretty picture.
According to UVM Extension’s Dr. LeonardPerry, “The stink bug has caused widespreaddamage to apples and peaches in mid-At-lantic states. Apples end up with many brownspots that make them unmarketable. Otherfruit crops it damages with dead spots in-clude fruits like cherries, pear, grapes, andbrambles. Host vegetable crops include corn,tomatoes, beans, cucumbers, eggplants, andpeppers among others.”
I come away from all this potential badnews thinking, Vermont agribusiness doesn’tneed another crisis.
From changing market prices to excessiverainfall, those who till our soils and tend tohoofed and feathered critters lead a prettyprecarious life as it is; they don’t need moretroubles—they just need a few good years of
bounty. In the case of Asian insects such as the ash
borer and the stink bug, both U.S. and itstrading nations need to do a much better jobof introducing unwanted agricultural pests.
With that said, there is some good ag newsto cheer about—such as the Vermont mapleindustry’s highly successful 2011 Sweet Sea-son—but our orchard owners have enough toworry about without the onslaught of yet an-other pest.
I wonder how the organic industry dealswith these new threats without the use of agrichemicals? Maybe there are lessons to belearned by employing more organic growingpractices in the fight against these importedpests.
In the meantime, the U.S. Department ofAgriculture must strongly demand that ex-porting nations step up their pest inspections,on the shipping end. With so many foreignproducts being shipped to America now, it’samazing there aren’t more of these natural in-vaders to deal with.
Climate change is often blamed for pestproblems, but when it comes to the ash borerand stink bug, the problem seems more logi-cally to stem from liberal inspection practiceson both sides of the world.
Take the stink bug, a native of Korea: Ver-mont’s climate is nearly identical to the in-land, northern parts of Korea (consider allthose beautiful ornamental shrubs and treesof the Korean peninsula that thrive so wellhere), so it’s not surprising that this particularpest would feel right at home here.
So how do we put a stop to these importedpests? How do we nab every potential threathiding in cargo containers, clinging to woodpalettes, or lurking in the rootstock of horti-cultural products?
U.S. agricultural agents must seriously stepup their port-of-entry quarantines; they mustalso keep cargoes locked up longer in order toconduct more detailed inspections and thor-ough fumigations—and while we’re at, let’ssignificantly increase federal and state fees onimported products. This will help pay fordamages that American farmers—and ulti-mately we consumers—pay as a result of thelaissez-faire attitudes of shippers and re-ceivers.

Iwas scheduled to arrive in Albuquerque at 9:30 p.m.,pick up my rental car, drive to my sister ’s, pick herup, and go eat dinner at the Flying Star, a quasi cafe-
teria-style New Mexico only chain restaurant that servesfresh food and seems to exist just for me.
The Flying Star menu includes a few varieties of mixedgreen salads with gnarly hunks of cheese and wafers ofcarrot and cucumber and any and all type of vegetable.They serve Greek and Oriental salads, and will top anysalad with chicken, and salmon too, if you care. You canget a hamburger, a tofu burger, soups, wraps, sandwichesof poultry, fresh, egg, and tuna salads, and of course theusual array of drinks, fancy strong coffee, sodas, teas, coldand hot, and a special drink they call “red drink.” I neverasked what was in “red drink,” but I had a couple, andthey were good, and thankfully not all that red tasting.
They used to make a kind of malted/egg cream at theFlying Star that I loved. It mixed sparkling soda water, ashot of vanilla, a few small ice cubes on the bottom, cream,whipped cream, and a cherry. They no longer serve it, butduring a late-evening sweet run I made toward the end ofmy trip, the counter I had who’d worked back when theyserved the malted, improvised me one. Served in a foun-tain glass with a straw and spoon, it was for me a desert toeat and enjoy that didn’t leave you feeling over loaded.
At the Flying Star you place your order with a waitper-son up at a cafeteria-type assembly-line counter. The wait-person directs you to a register down the line at whichyou’ll meet her and pay your tally. They make your drink,and set it on a tray that has a stainless steel holder withyour number pinched into the top. You go to a table and arunner brings your meal to your number.
I’ve been eating at the Flying Star for eight years andhave never being disappointed in the neat, helpful, waitand support staff. They all seem to be motivated, and hap-py to be working at the Flying Star. Good little American
workers is what they are.At each of the locations
are several large racksloaded full of a wide varietyof the latest magazines. Theycarry several issues of themost popular magazines, yetstill plenty of rather obscureones too. You don’t need tobuy them; the magazines arethere for you to read at yourleisure. Since electronic me-dia has become so prevalent,I find fewer folks read themagazines. I still do, and Itend to pull off and peruse a variety of them from sports,to business, to glossy promotional European vacationones. How cool a feature huh?
My sis tells me the chain, and I hesitate to call it a chain.In fact, if there is an actual number of something to qualifyit as a chain, I’m not sure the Flying Star qualifies, becauseI believe there are a total of only 11, all in New Mexico.But my sis tells me the first Flying Star was opened in1987, on Central, right near her house, by a married cou-ple, Jean and Mark Bernstein.
When I recall images of visiting my sister, one of thestrongest sense memories is of The Flying Star. The placeadds a lot of fun to my visit, and when I’m eating there Inever fail to wonder about the creators and owners, andabout how hard they work to keep their brand efficientand nice. I appreciate their efforts.
With all the many, many, many great places to eat wehave in Vermont, I’d say we don’t have anything similar tothe Flying Star. We need something like it. Go ahead, comeup with a great that’s idea unique to Vermont and open it.
You could you know.

exception in this respect) have substantial minority en-rollments; this fact therefore produces total averages no-ticeably lower than the one or two which don’t.
All these achievement-by-demographic-cohort stats,for each state, are published in the annual National Di-gest of Educational Statistics, which you can request(usually no charge) from your favorite Congressionalpolitician’s office.
There you’ll find, for fourth grade reading, that statis-tically all-white Vermont posts a student test score of229, while the U.S. average for the white cohort is 230.And how “high value” is a 229 score? Hint: it’s less thanhalfway up the 0-500 score scale.
When Vermont claims, on the basis of state total-en-rollment averages, to have the best schools in the K-12neighborhood that’s because the overall neighborhoodisn’t even middle-class (pun intended) achievement-wise.
The states at the bottom of the heap spending-wise getthere primarily via larger class sizes. Utah, for example,has an average class size twice that of Vermont’s and acost-of-direct instruction half as much per pupil.
All the others are similarly more efficient than Ver-mont—class-size and instruction-cost-wise—and control-ling for the test-score depressing effect of their minorityenrollments, they all post reading scores quite close tothose of the Education State.
Here they are, for white fourth graders in 2007: Idaho223, Mississippi 208, Tennessee 216, Utah 221. These fouraverage at 217, 12 below Vermont—that’s 5 percent.
The per-pupil spending of the four states is about 50percent below Vermont’s. The four states also post eighthgrade reading proficiency percentages in the three-out-of-10 range—meaning that in the four low-cost states,seven out of ten students can’t function at grade level inreading.
In high-cost Vermont, the proficiency rate was 42 per-cent, meaning that almost six out of ten were sub-profi-cient in eighth grade reading.
So Vermont’s proficiency advantage is one-out-of-ten. All states are required to get almost all students to
“proficient” by 2014. None is even close and even the Ed-ucation State has protested that No-Child-Left-BehindLaw of 2001 requirement and claims that it just won’t beable to do it.
Vermont claims it’s an illegal, unfunded federal man-date which the Education State could meet if it wantedto—it just needs a lot more money.
So, we’re left with the editor ’s anti-gravitational opin-ion—unsupported by facts— that a Vermont education is“quality” and the contrast with the dismal proficiencystats, about the same in all states.
We’re also left with his assertion headlined thus “rank-ing fifth in per pupil spending is good news”; there’s noexplanation for a spending level twice as large as that ofthe cheap states producing only a 5 percent difference inreading scores.
A skeptic might well ask whether it’s all worth it. Andwe chuckle with this most curious opinion: “Vermont’schallenge is not to reduce spending, but rather to holdthe current level…” and so on.
Gloriosky, Zero, I’d have thought that the challengeought to be one of teaching all the teachable students (afew aren’t) how to read and how to master some of thebasic skills or facts?
The question which the editor chooses not to address:how can it be that a K-12 system which was the pride ofthe nation only a few decades ago now isn’t? What hap-pened?

Adapted by Richard George, “Char-lie...” s the magical tale of a young boywho finds a golden ticket and gets thechance to visit the hidden world ofWonka’s magical factory , wher echocolate runs in rivers and lessons inself-confidence ar e the icing on top.The book spawned two major motionpictures, “W illy W onka and theChocolate Factory” and “Charlie andthe Chocolate Factory”.
“Charlie...” is performed by W est-on’s 2011 Young Company, chosen byaudition fr om the nation’s top un-dergraduate musical theatr e pr o-grams, joined by 10-year -old Eli Ep-polito of nearby Londonderry in therole of Charlie.

The play will be directed and cho-reographed by WPTC teaching artistJohn Hadden (artistic director at Hub-bard Hall). Assisting him will be a tal-ented group of Weston veterans: sce-nic designer Blair Mielnik, lightingdesigner Brad Peterson, costume de-
signer Megan Camp, sound designerJeff Human and stage manager MollyShoemaker.
“We’ve been having a ball talkingabout the show in pr e-production,”Hadden said. “The designers ar e us-ing an old-time vaudeville appr oachthat gives us that oddball excitementpeople used to get when ‘the showcame to town!’ Ther e will be a lot ofsideshow barking, tricks and flim-flammery (including puppets) thatwill give audiences a lot to look at,laugh at and think about.”
Tickets are $15 for adults and $8 for
children under 12. Performances lastjust over one hour with no intermis-sion.

B-17from page 1
The exhibit opened to the public last week onFather’s Day.
Griswold said one of the most persistent leg-ends of the 1943 crash was that it was caused bysabotage. Griswold said ther e’s no evidence tosupport the sabotage theory.
“Well, it certainly was not an act of sabotage,”Griswold said, “so I wondered what really causedthe crash?”
In 1991, a memorial stone and plaque markingthe crash was placed on Fish Hill Road in Ran-dolph. Engraved words on the stone tells the sto-ry of how seven airmen who parachuted to safe-ty; also engraved are the names of the three avi-ators who perished with their aircraft.
“As I began to put documents together , it be-came obvious to me that this plane crash was notthe r esult of sabotage,” Griswold said. “Thetragedy was the result of human error, in this case,co-pilot error.”
According to Griswold, the B-17F’s engine in-tercoolers were set on “high”.
“Due to the apparent inexperience of the co-pi-lot in the pr oper use of inter coolers, the oil washeated excessively until it became so thin that theoil pressure dropped and the fuel mixed wasleaned to such an extent that is caused detona-tion,” he said. “This resulted in burning throughthe tops of the pistons and scoring of the pistonand cylinder walls of 3 of the 4 engines.”
According to the accident report from the AirCorps Accident Committee, it was found through
Griswold’s research, that this incident forced theaircraft’s engine oil to be heated and thinned toomuch. The tragic result was that the plane wasunable to maintain enough power to keep itselfin the air.
“The problem was quickly discover ed by theflight engineer, but it was too late to r everse theeffects and continue to fly. The engine cylindersbegan to explode, crippling 3 of the four engines,”he said.
According to Griswold, at the time of the crashin 1943, the B-17F was a new and highly sophis-ticated aircraft.
The plane performed flawlessly during its pre-flight check which was conducted by EngineerStaff Sgt. Jessie Pace and Assistant Engineer StaffSgt. Oscar Kr ummel before Leaving Grand Is-land, Neb., on the morning of June 27, 1943.
“According to statements fr om crash sur-vivors, Pace noted t hat the engine inter coolerswere put in the “hot” position by the co-pilot for15 minutes—without the pilot ‘s knowledge,”said Griswold. “Engineer Pace corr ected the is-sue but the damage was too far along to fix. Paceand the investigation team of the W ar Depart-ment Accident Committee agr eed this was thecause of this tragedy.”
Griswold said Assistant Flight Engineer Krum-mel stated the air craft was also overloaded,weighing 68,000 pounds on take-of f; the B-17Fwas rated for a maximum loaded weight of65,500 pounds.
“With four engines, the ship flew well and andwas set on auto-pilot for four hours without anyproblems at all,” he noted.
“Once the two inboard engines lostoil pressure, the pilot began to ‘feath-er’ no. 2 and no. 3 to allow the enginesto cool. Moments later , the oil pr es-sure dropped to zero on outboard en-gine no. 4. After that, the airplane wasgoing down. Em ergency measuresneeded to be taken immediately ,”Griswold said.
After the emergency was declared,pilot Lt. Leonard Bolon put the safe-ty of his crew first. He remained calmand collected, accor ding to Pace’sstatement, while trying to work theengine problems at hand.
Bolon next told the crew to quick-ly prepare to bail out with parachutesdespite the fact that no crew memberhad ever used a parachute.
Griswold discovered that Bolonwanted all of his crew to bail out, but both the co-pilot and tail gunner stayed onboard.
Apparently, all the men remaining onboard be-lieved in the leadership skills and competence oftheir pilot. They must have believed he could tobring the plane in safely.
“As the plane came in, there was a giant elmtree directly in the glide path,” Griswold said.“They were unable to clear it. On contact withthe tree, one wing was sheered off, thLast month,on Memorial Day, Griswold, the property own-er of the crash site, and another neighbor con-ducted a brief the memorial service for the air-men who died in the crash of the Small Arm.
“With the permission of the landowner—and
using a garden tool and a metal detector—I un-earthed over 500 targets including the pilot’s ster-ling silver I.D. bracelet, some uniform buttonsand insignia, 12-carat gold finished Ray Ban-brand aviator sunglass frames, a jungle knife, amaster lock and three keys. I even unearthed thelens of the Norden bombsight.”
Griswold said solving the mystery of the SmallArm touched him on a personal level.

RUTLAND — Heavy floodingthis spring thr ough southern andcentral Vermont has caused con-siderable damage to not onlystreets, r oads and highways, butalso the intricate network of snow-mobile trails throughout the state.
Officials of the Vermont Associ-ation of Snow Travelers (VAST) re-cently stated that damage to their4,500-mile trail system could costmore than $1.5 million to repair, in-cluding fallen tr ees and completewashouts, to upended culverts anddamaged bridges.
Founded nearly 40 years ago,VAST is a no-profit, private groupthat includes 138 snowmobileclubs thr oughout the state, withover 35,000 curr ent members.VAST is not only r esponsible forthe or ganization of the sport, butalso the maintaining and groomingof the trails. There are currently 14elected dir ectors in each of the
state's 14 counties, with the mainoffice in Berlin, V ermont housingseven full-time employees.
VAST Executive Director BryantWatson r ecently s tated th at d am-age to the Lamoille County RailTrail alone will reach $500,000,while snowmobile clubs fr omaround the Green Mountain Stateare r eporting other damages thatcould add another $1 million to thecost.
Several snowmobile clubsthroughout the state ar e reportingthat while simply assessing dam-age from roadside, many locationsare being identified as having sig-nificant damage, including multi-ple dislodged bridges and cul-verts. It was also r eported that agreat deal of the trail damage is lo-cated in W ashington, Orange,Lamoille, Orleans and Essex coun-ties
With a current operating budgetup to $5 million, VAST will have adifficult time generating the neces-sary funds to repair the entire trail
network. Although some federalfunds may be available for dam-aged trails, it is likely that V ASTwill have to first concentrate on re-pairing the main north-south andeast-west corridors that will enableriders to access trails in all r egionof the state.
The goal will be to open up thesemain trails so that riders can ge tfrom a trail that is maintained byone club, to a connecting trailwhich is maintained by anotherclub. Also, because many ridersand t ourists p lan l ong t rail r idesover 100's of miles, cr eating thisconnectivity between trails is key.
Outdoor sports plays such a sig-nificant role in the state's econom-ic impact, therefore, VAST will alsolikely apply for additional stateand federal funding, along withthe possibility of raising the trailfees within the organization to as-sist in the funding of repairs.
One positive aspect, however, isthe fact that the or ganization hasseveral months to determine what
state funds they can seek and whatother steps can be taken to raise thenecessary funds to r epair thesemain artery trails.
VAST is also curr ently lookingfor additional riders to assist in as-sessing further trail damage
throughout the state. To learn moreabout VAST and the ef forts to r e-pair snowmobile trails throughoutVermont, visit its official website atwww.vtvast.org and facebookpage at www .facebook.com/vt-vast.
