The coolest townie dogs enjoyedeach other’s company as they paddledaround Mill Pond Pool Tuesday eve-ning.Their human companions werenot allowed to swim,as itwas aday forthe dogs — the annual Dog Days ofSummer Swim, to be precise.Seven workers from the town’s

Park and Recreation Aquatic

Department were at the pool,supervising the event and checkingowners’ proof of their dogs’ rabiesvaccinations. About 20 dogs andtheir families came to enjoy the poolfor the fifth year of the annual swim,most Newington residents.Nothingtoo wild happened this time around,but Parks and Rec staff memberKelly Schumacher remembers onedog almost drowning another lastyear, before a lifeguard jumped in

to separate the pair. “A lot of timesthe big dogs don’t like to swim,” sheadded.Newington resident Lisa

Pasqualucci brought Rosie,her stan-dard poodle who just turned 8 andis studying to be a therapy dog.Thetwo may have the opportunity to gointo convalescent homes and bringgood cheer to the elderly throughpet therapy if Rosie passes her quali-fying test at Dog Training CenterTails-U-Win! in Manchester thisfall. In the meantime,Rosie enjoyedthe pool along with the other dogs— including Patches, a 6-year-oldblack Lab who tried desperately tobuild up the courage to leap off thediving board after his toy as it flewthrough the air.Patches’ owner Bill Aldridge

stood by the diving board coax-ing him to go for the jump likehe has in the past. “He seems tohave forgotten he did it last year,”laughed Aldridge. After a coupleof timid walks back to the begin-ning of the board, Patches finallybravely made the bound off its endand soared through the air into thewater, proudly retrieving his toy.Kelly Tinkham’s 7-year-old black

Lab-border collie Blast was quickto use the diving board, showing offfor all of his dog friends. As theirfamilies stood around watching andchatting, they all spent the eveningracing after each other around thepool like little children whose par-ents might yell, ‘Don’t run by thepool, you’ll slip and hurt yourself!’Both animals and people will haveto wait until next summer to swimat Mill Pond Park’s pool again, as itclosed for the season on Monday.

dents’ tuition, but the state andparents previously shared part-tim-ers’ costs.

The job

A liaison from the Newingtonpolice to the community, OfficerJamie Cipolla works to strength-en this relationship. Cipolla is thedepartment’s Community ServicesOfficer. “The position allows theofficer to give more specializedattention to areas good and bad,”she explained.Cipolla’s responsibilities are

varied. She teaches the Step-UpProgram toNewington’s fifth-grad-ers, a four-week class.The programfocuses on respect, responsibilityand accountability, the dangers oftobacco, alcohol and drugs, internetsafety and bullying.She also teachessecond, third and fourth-grade sim-ilar lessons in separate programs.But if two neighbors are havingan argument over their propertylines, Cipolla is also the officer todeal with the situation. She handleseverything from neighbor disputesand neighborhood watches to traf-fic issues.She also works closely with the

senior citizens in town, informing

them about fraud and scams. Themost rewarding function of herposition, however, is organizingfundraising events for the town.This past May, Cipolla put togeth-er a very successful fundraiser atOutback Steakhouse to benefit theSpecial Olympics, which raisedover $2,000.

How she got there

Cipolla has been involved withpolice work since childhood. Shegrew up in West Hartford and herfather was a Hartford police officerfor 20 years before retiring in 2002.“He’d get home from work and I’dask him what he did that day,” sheremembers. “It was always of inter-est tome and I decided in 2004 nowis the time I need to make a deci-sion if I’m going to do this.”Beforeshe got into law enforcement, sheworked as an event manager atMaxDowntown in Hartford for quite awhile and as a background investi-gator for prospective employees atTravelers Insurance.FromOctober2009 toNovember

2010, she served as a task forceofficer to the Drug EnforcementAdministration.Working with fed-eral agents and other task force

officers, Cipolla had cases inHartford, Manchester, Newington,sometimes even the Bronx,N.Y. “Itwas a really good experience. Yousee how to combat drugs on a wholedifferent level,” she explained. Butthe Community Services positiontugged her in another direction.“Here my focus is problem solvingin a broader aspect,” said Cipolla,who went from doing undercov-er drug investigations to dealingwith situations in Newington thatrequire more attention then regularpatrol officers can provide with theamount of other calls they handle.

Asof now

“I’d like to include more fund-raising and giving back to the

community,” said Cipolla. “I’m real-ly happy where I am right now, I’veworked in patrol, narcotics, now I’min a community service position,”she continued.“As time goes on, I’mstill learning.” Cipolla is engagedto be married in May to a fellowpolice officer and travels wheneverpossible. “My mom was born inBermuda, and I just returned therein June,” she said. She’s also vis-ited Jamaica 14 times, as she enjoysrelaxing with a good book on thebeach.

The next two upcoming fund-raising events will benefit the PeterJ. Lavery Memorial ScholarshipFund, in honor of beloved masterPolice Officer Lavery, killed in theline of duty in 2004. A MemorialGolf Tournament at Gillette RidgeGolf Club in Bloomfield will beheld this Monday Aug. 16, andthe Annual Lavery Memorial Run,a police-escorted motorcycle Ride,will be on Sept. 18.

Ashley with her winning fantasy hairstyle.

‘Blondie’ updateIn last week�s Newington Town Crier, we featured the

story of resident and business owner Ashley �Blondie�Stone, who is competing on the Oxygen Network�s HairBattle Spectacular.

Monday night was the season premiere. Ashley beganthe episode with a �check-up challenge� where the con-testants had to create a three-foot-tall fantasy hair piecebased on the Twitter tweets of a celebrity. This challengedid not go how Ashley hoped it would and she opted notto turn in a piece, rather than turn in an inferior one byher standards. While the judges had some stern wordsfor her because of this choice, it was well worth the waitfor the �Glam Slam� round. Ashley came out on top over10 other contestants with her �Harajuku Barbie in a box�look inspired by Nikki Minaj (whom Ashley got to meet inreal life.)

To the Editor:

At the July 26, 2011 TownCouncil meeting there was alengthy discussion pertaining to theapplication of a grant request for theformer National Welding propertylocated at 600 Cedar St., near FennRoad. The proposed applicationidentified how this area is locatedin the proposed Transit OrientedDevelopment (TOD) area.The memo from the Town

Manager spoke about the “synergy”between Central Connecticut StateUniversity (CCSU) and the town ofNewington. CCSU owns over 100acres to the east of the future NewBritain — Hartford Busway, muchof which is in Newington with aplan to develop an East Campus.No matter how this land is zoned,the state will pretty much be able todo whatever they want with it, bar-ring issues such as wetlands.At this meeting the Town

Council objected to any mentionof housing in the grant applica-tion. At last Tuesday’s meeting thisTOD Pilot Program FacilitationGrant Request had been revisedto remove any mention of hous-ing. However, the Town Plannermentioned that part of the criteriafor approval is that the town needsto sign off on the Memorandumof Understanding In Support OfTransit Oriented Development inthe Capitol Region,which does talkabout housing.

In the memorandum it identi-fied that the Capitol Region, ofwhich Newington is a part, hasmade a commitment through adop-tion of the Plan of Conservationand Development for the CapitolRegion and the Capitol RegionTransportation Plan “to supportthese transit investments, andencourage land use planning thatwill spur mixed use development,including commercial offices, hous-ing, retail and institutional uses,within a quarter to one-half mileradius of rail and bus rapid stations…”I would encourage you to take alook at these documents.Some people on the Town

Council would have you believethat if we take the grant money forremoval of the National Weldingbuilding, it does not commit usto housing. As a member of yourTown Council, I have asked thatwe formally request that the stateagencies who oversee this grant,provide for us in writing, proof thatacceptance will not bind us into anagreement that requires our supportfor housing.I would further share with you

a study completed in December2003, which was called the “Town

of Newington: Principles forTransit-Oriented Development”completed for the New Britain— Hartford Busway Station AreaPlanning Project,” which wasundertaken byCrosby/Schlessinger/Smallridge, LLC and the CapitolRegion Council of Governmentwhich stated, “The busway stationcould be surrounded with compact,mixed-use, pedestrian friendly vil-lages, townhouse neighborhoods, oroffice cluster.” The question it begsis exactly what kind of village do youthink one could build in the Fenn/Cedar area?This same study identified that

the future of the Cedar and EastStreet Stations is directly relatedto plans by CCSU. It also identi-fied that there are “significant issuesrelated to the underdeveloped landeast of the busway and traffic con-gestion around Route 9 and CedarStreet. Both access to underdevel-oped parcels and existing congestionmust be addressed in order forTOD to be feasible.” So it prob-ably wouldn’t surprise you when Itell you that despite the fiscal crisisthe state is in, the Town Councilwas told at the last meeting that thestate has decided to give the town of

Newington’s share, a mere $450,000back, in order to take control ofthe access road. Perhaps it wouldn’tsurprise you to hear that the town ofWest Hartford hasn’t even appliedfor any of this grant money. It doesmake me wonder if West Hartfordknows something we don’t know.

We, in Newington have foughtlong and hard to maintain theintegrity of our town.At this point,Ifear that there are those who wouldlike nothing more than to turn usinto an extension of Hartford, per-haps another East Hartford. Manyof you have successfully kept thefocus on housing on the top ofthe mountain. I hope you will notlose sight of what is happeningon Cedar Street and Fenn Road.Over the next few months manyof your Town Council members,myself included, will be coming toyour door to ask for your support. Itwill be a great opportunity to tell uswhere you stand on housing in thisarea, or housing in general.

Sincerely,

MaureenH.KlettTownCouncilor

One of the youngermembers of theTownCouncilis Newington native Scott McBride, 34, who is justfinishing his first term as a Councilor and has

decided to run again.“I’ve found it enjoyable

the last couple of years,” saidMcBride.“I enjoy public serviceand working for the people.”His family business is

McBride Carpets on the BerlinTurnpike where he works full-time. When he began servingtwo years ago, he had recentlymarried and didn’t have anychildren yet. Now a new fatherto an 8-month-old son, he hasfound a way to balance every-thing. “I’ve found I have a lotless time and enjoy being a dadmuch more then I thought Iwould,” said McBride. “Now Irush home at night after meet-ings just to see if I can have

time to put him to bed!”But being a dad hasn’t changed his desire to be in

town government. “If anything I have a newfoundrespect for people who do a public service; you haveto have the time and you have to have the will.”

He doesn’t bear a single bit of smugness, either,admitting that anyone can serve on the council.“This is something none of us have any education

in,” he said, “but you have to learn.”McBride values the importance oflistening to people in town whocome to him with ideas. “I thinkthere are hundreds of people thatcould do this job, so when constitu-ents come to me with comments Ireally listen.They have a lot of great

suggestions and you have to be open to what anyonesays.”And that is why his problem with government

in general is the separation of party position. “Idon’t vote based on party, but based on the policy orperson — if it’s a good idea for the town then it’s agood idea, it doesn’t make a difference to me whothought of it.”“I think the town is extremely well run. As my

friends get older and move to surrounding townsI hear the stories about how good they had it inNewington — we have low taxes and offer a ton ofservices,” says McBride. “We’ve done a good job ofbalancing the needs of the town.”Regarding Cedar Mountain, McBride said,

“When talking about destruction of open space, it’snot a decision you can go back and rectify.We haveso little of it here and I think it’s important that wemake educated decisions on preserving as much aswe can.”


If he takes one of the eight seatsin theTownCouncil this year, it willbe his fourth time doing so. John

“Jay” Bottalico, 73,moved to Newingtonin 1959 and workedas a design engineerfor GE in Plainville.Retired for 10 yearsnow, he is able todedicate much of his

time and interest to the duties of theTown Council.“I’m here for the people of

Newington,” said Bottalico. “I’mretired — I don’t have any politi-cal agenda, I just do what I thinkis right.”He’s anxious to continue working

with the other members of TownCouncil who are running again,which include Councilors ScottMcBride, Maureen Klett, MyraCohen, David Nagel and BethDelBuono.“Everybody seems to getalong really well,” said Bottalico.“You’ve got to understand how thetown works.”And his main concern is the

taxes. “Last year we had 2.8 percenttax increase, I think that’s just toohigh,” he expressed. “I’ve done a lotof research on taxes and every yearthey doubled.”While taxes take highest priority

in his mind right now, the othercurrent issue that every-body’s talking about isthe proposed subdivisionon Cedar Mountain.Bottalico’s take is thattown government needsto get all the facts beforeany real step is taken.“Mycontention on CedarMountain is to let TownPlanning do their jobbefore we do anything,”he said, “I understandpeople are passionate, butit is private property.”If elected, he has a

policy he’d like to pushfor, although still in itsinfancy. “It should helpthe senior citizens intown,” said Bottalico. “They takethe brunt of the taxes every year andmost of them are on fixed income.I think we need to take a hard lookat that.”

They make up an 9-ballteam known as “The Pocket Pool All-Stars”and an 8-ball team that call themselves “PlainTrouble.”Both play weekly at Maguire’s SportsBar in Newington.They will be competing in the APA 8-and-

9-Ball National Team Championships — anannual competition with a national title and aportion of $600,000 in cash and prizes on theline—or on the table, that is.Both teams cameout on top in their divisions at the Local TeamChampionship held in June, a win that earnedthem the exciting week in Vegas.“The Pocket Pool All-Stars” will be flying

out to Las Vegas this Friday, Aug. 17 andreturning on Aug. 23.They are led by CaptainAlexndre Lopes and Co-Captain CarlosRibiero,and comprised of players Nick Phillips,John Collette, Michael Santos, Jason Fonseca,Danny Pavao and Antoni Phillips.“Plain Trouble” is captained by Larry

Ouelette and Ronald Tacey, with players ChrisSzlachetka, Gregory O’Donnell, SalvatoreCiviello, Jessica Lescault and Brent Micalerounding out the table. It’s their second trip,as they also qualified for Vegas in 2008, whenthey placed 257 out of 700 teams. “We werejust some guys hanging out at the bar, three of

us in the team graduated from the same highschool in ’93,” said Co-Captain Ron Taceyof his team, which have been together aboutsix years, although they all started playing asteenagers. Tacey is more confident about theirchance this time around. “This year’s team is a

much stronger team then in 2008 so I hope wecan do better,”he said. “It’s a unique experiencemeeting teams all over the U.S.”Started by Ann and Bruce Barthelette in

1989, the Connecticut American Pool PlayersAssociation has grown to be the second larg-est pool league in the country, with over 7,000active members and more than 300 tavernsthat host their play.To celebrate and wish themgood luck,they hosted a “Vegas Send-off Party”for the 200+ players on the 24 8-and-9-ballteams from the state that qualified to competenationally. The party was held last Sunday atBig Shots Billiards in East Windsor and thebest in the business were in attendance.Mike Dechaine, the No. 1 professional pool

NEW BRITAIN — More thanhalf the field in Sunday’s rescheduledNutmeg State Games track and fieldevent were scared away by constantrain or forced to stay away by sched-uling conflicts. But those who stuckaround had the opportunity to seizesome coveted hardware.Every race and throwing event

went off without a hitch at NewBritain’s Veterans Stadium, thoughthe diminished field made for someanticlimactic finishes, with severalraces only pitting a handful of run-ners, and some containing only oneparticipant.Danielle Forrest was not dismayed

however, and saw the contest as anopportunity to get in an off-seasonworkout.“I just wanted to see where I was

for the summer,” the Newington run-ner said. “Since I’m not doing track[during the summer], it’s a way to seehow I am, and how in shape I am.”Aside from getting in a tune-up,

Forrest was able to snatch a gold inthe 100 meter dash, clocking a timeof 13.9 seconds, as well as a bronze inthe long jump, spanning a distance of14.4 feet.“It was a little bit disappointing,

especially in long jump,” Forrest said,critiquing her performance. “Theweather didn’t help that much but Idid the best that I could.”In spite of the ugly conditions,

Forrest was able to pump herself upand take home some special awards toadd to her mantle.“It makes me really happy, it shows

that it’s worth it to come out,” Forrestsaid. “You never know how you’ll do.”Twelve-year-old Matt Jablonka

fromWethersfield took home a gold inthe mile and bronze in the 100 meterdash, and Tyler Landry of Rocky Hillplaced fourth in the javelin.Also from Rocky Hill, Peter

Drakopolous took home gold in theMen’s 50+ 800 meters, clocking in at2:45:30.
