Thanks Henry, Thanks Rick, Thanks Fairfax.
Thanks to all who wrote and visited, and fed us.
Your support has been overwhelming.

Henry fit right into this community because this community opened its arms to Henry.
Especially the kids !
When the BFA Fairfax JV baseball team stopped a game and gave him an autographed ball for his 75th birthday, I about lost it.

I wasn't born here.
I wasn't educated here.
I traveled the world and picked this community to raise my family.

Thank you, everyone.

Maybe I have been educated here.

BFA Fairfax School Board Resignations

It is with deep regret that the Board of School Directors have accepted the resignations of two very valued Board members.  Lauri Fisher due to the fact that the law firm she is employed by will be working on a pending legal action that will require the subpoenaing of documentation and other information from the school.  Rachelle Howard due to the closeness of the current siituation which could compromise her effectiveness as a board member. 

A Letter from Peg Stewart:

I would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank both Lauri Fisher and Rachelle Howard for the many years they have served on your School Board.  They have brought much knowledge to all of us.  They have both been very dedicated to their belief that the students deserve the best education possible and that their safety be a priority.  Lauri brought to the board understanding, commitment and a thourough knowledge of what BFA was and will continue to be.  Rachelle was very knowledgeable of the budgeting process and was very instrumental in the positive Master Agreement being approved.  Hopefully the opportunity will arise when they can return as members of the Bellows Free Academy School Board.
Peg Stewart, Board Chair

JAMES H. DOUGLAS
GOVERNOR
State of Vermont

OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
Official Statement of the Governor
September 11, 2007

Today we pause to recall September 11th, 2001—the most poignant experience of a lifetime for many, and an attack we will never forget. 

The work day stopped.  We watched with horror and great unease as the day unfolded.  We made calls to loved ones far away to check whereabouts and wellness. 

Then, in a remarkable display of unity that makes us all proud of our nation, America rallied the familiar, warm embrace of liberty and opportunity—mustering the very virtues the terrorists seek to destroy.  All across America—and all across Vermont—people rushed to give blood, give money, and give their time.  Others got in their cars or fire trucks or police cruisers and drove to New York City, Pennsylvania and Washington, DC to lend a hand in whatever they could do.

***

Vermont will always be profoundly grateful to the men and women who gave their lives that day in heroic efforts to rescue the innocent victims of that attack.  It reminds us of the vital work of our first responder community and the importance of preparedness.

We also honor today the men and women of the armed forces whose service, on 9-11 and in the 6 years following, continues to go far and above their normal call to arms. 

***

September 11th will always be a day of great memorial and reverent reflection.  But on this solemn day, we must also recall the blanket of optimism and resolve that calmed and joined us.  This is the strength of America and the spirit that commands the preservation of this freedom-loving nation and her people.

Here's Carol's letter from The Fairfax News
September 2007 issue page 2:

Fairfax Parks & Recreation Department
P.O. Box 27
Fairfax VT 05454

August 26, 2007

Select Board
Town of Fairfax
P.O. Box 27
Fairfax VT 05454

Greetings,

It is with great regret that I am submitting a letter of resignation for the Fairfax Parks & Recreation Director position.  Having been completely vested in the park and path construction, organizing and fundraising for that, and the subsequent developments of the Fairfax Parks & Recreation Department for the past eight years, this has been a hard decision to come to.

As of mid August, my other part time job has become full time with greater responsibility and time demands, such that I am required to cut back on my commitments.  As I am working full time now, I will be less available for the Parks & Recreation Director duties, which being flexible part-time position, isn’t as conducive to a typical two-week notice.  I would like to provide a candidate for immediate placement as “Interim Parks and Recreation Director” (see attached letter) and who I can guide through duties needing to be addressed over the next four weeks.  I’m available over the next couple months to help train, consult and provide any electronic files and resources needed for this interim director as well as for the new director once hired.

I feel the Fairfax Community Park and Recreation Path Project has been a tremendous community project and I am grateful to have been in the right place and time to be a part of this project.  The development of the Fairfax Parks & Recreation Department is something else I am proud to have been a part of, in it’s conceptualization and realization.  For me this has been such a tremendous personal experience and I am appreciative to the Fairfax community for it.

Thank you all for your support and I will miss you all,




Carol Lizotte
Fairfax Parks & Recreation Director
