A change in
the winds?
Alternative energy group to study
benefits of town wind turbines
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
justin@duxburyclipper.com
Could a wind turbine help
ease Duxbury’s rising energy
costs?
The idea of wind power
on town-owned land is just
one of several energy-saving
strategies being studied by the
Alternative Energy Commit-
tee. Although any such turbine
is several steps removed from
becoming a reality, officials
say the project has support in
town and would be beneficial
to residents.
“We’ve applied for a small
grant that would cover about
90 percent of the cost of a wind
turbine study,” said Commit-
tee Chairman Frank Duggan.
He said a study would typi-
cally cost about $35,000, and
the state has given other com-
munities close to $30,000. He
acknowledged, however, that
any money for alternative en-
ergy would be hard to come
by in the tough economic cli- COWABUNGA: Kelly McCarthy catches a wave off Duxbury Beach over the weekend. High winds cre-

A ‘first’ for Duxbury Thrift Shop
By Emily Caleskie,
Special to the Clipper
All magic in life begins
with “first times ever.” For
the Duxbury Thrift Shop, our
“first time ever” was the side-
walk sale we held on Monday
Aug. 3. With fall just around
the corner, and an overstock
of summer clothes, a quick
decision by our president was
made ... and guess what? It
was a lot of fun for everyone!
We had racks of ladies’ and
men’s clothing for $2 each,
all children’s clothing was
$1 each. The running fash-
ion show occurring inside the
shop as people tried on their

The reason behind this en-
deavor was to prepare our shop
for fall clothing, by eliminat-
ing all our summer clothing
which had been on the racks
for over two months. Thanks
to all our great volunteers who
helped out, and thanks to all
our neighborhood friends who
emptied the racks with smiles.
Now, it is “Welcome to
Fall” in the shop. Please re-
member, “fall” clothing is not
“winter,” no corduroy, vel-
vet, or wool. Those may be
brought in after the middle
of October. Please make sure
will be held on March 26.
A season subscription
is $185 (Additional child in

All invitations for the
fifth and sixth grade will be

organically raised bison burgers, sausages

this food is a carnival ride for the taste buds; the anticipation is
the tricky part, eating the ostrich is a taste sensation and telling
your friends about it later is all part of the fair experience.

“It came very naturally to

wanted to run the supermar-
ket, but had little interest in
the bakery.
Odier and his wife took
the plunge, but he admits he
had reservations. Friends had
been telling them Duxbury
was a tough town to start a
business. But they couldn’t
have been more wrong about
French Memories.
The first Saturday the
bakery was open, Odier had
to close early –– at 11 a.m.
–– because the product was
sold out. This trend continued
for several weeks, and soon
the bakery’s fame had spread
around town.
“The community was so
welcoming,” said Debbie Odi-
er.
French Memories is a
“totally French” bakery, says
Philippe Odier. Other than
typical American items like
bagels and doughnuts, a hun-
gry patron won’t find anything
on the shelves that wouldn’t fit
in at any Parisian bakery. Even
the bread is made according
to a traditional French recipe,
containing nothing other than
flour, water, yeast and salt.
“We do everything from
scratch,” he said.
The French Memories Bakery has been a Snug Harbor staple for two
decades.
Wednesday, August 26, 2009
His speciality is the crois-
sant. Odier takes great pride in
pointing out that Duxbury res-
idents who have been to Paris
say his flaky croissants are su-
perior to any one would find in
the French capital.
For Odier, running the
front office aspect of his new
business came easily, having
watched his father manage the
front of the shop as well as the
kitchen. But while he says he
loves both baking and busi-
ness, as the popularity of the
bakery expanded, it became
more and more difficult for
Odier to juggle all his duties.
In 1999, he hired Bruno
Biagianti, who had been the
executive pastry chef at the
Ritz in Boston and Paris, to
run the kitchen.
“He had exactly the same
ideas that I had,” Odier said.
The business also expand-
ed. While Duxbury remains
the flagship store, the Odi-
ers also own another French
Memories, which opened
last November in Sharon, as
well as two restaurants called
Cafe Vanille, one on Charter
Street in Boston and one in the
Chestnut Hill Mall. Although
the expansions have been suc-
cessful, Odier says he’ll never
mass-market his creations.
“It will never be a chain,”
he said. “It’s difficult to keep
the quality of the product.”
On Aug. 14, the bakery
celebrated its 20th anniver-
sary. They were also listed as
“Best of Boston” under the
South category for Bakery, ac-
cording to Boston magazine.
Through hard work and
dedication, the Odiers and
Biagianti have turned French
Memories into a sweet delight
in the heart of Duxbury’s Snug
Harbor.
“I always give it my all
and work really hard,” Odier
said.

My pool water smells like chlorine and my eyes

ANSWER:
Two things to check - is the pH proper? (7.4 to 7.6)? The
pH of the eye is 7.4 to 7.6 so low pH will irritate the eyes.
Also, low available chlorine can create these symptoms. Susan Trayser, Elaine Winquist and Mary K.

Privatization for water?
Water and Sewer Advisory chairman says jury’s still out
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
justin@clipperpress.com
As the town is without a
water superintendent after Paul
Anderson left for a position in
Middleboro, Duxbury is tak-
ing a hard look at the structure
of the water department, in-
cluding the idea of privatizing
some aspects.
George Wadsworth, chair-
man of the Water and Sewer
Advisory Committee, said
Town Manager Richard Mac-
Donald tasked his committee
with exploring the options.
He said his group isn’t look-
ing at a model where the entire
department would be run by a
private company, but merely
the operations and manage-
ment.
“As part of this operation
they would take over title of
the vehicles. That would be
the only thing they would take
title to.”
This means that the private
company wouldn’t own any of
the assets of the water depart-
ments, such as water mains, or
equipment other than vehicles,
Wadsworth said.
Other towns have explored
partial privatization options
in recent years. Plymouth’s
sewer department is run by a
private company. In Cohasset,
the company American Water-
works is under contract to run
that town’s water department.
Wadsworth said the idea of
a private company completely
running a town’s utilities, in-
cluding buying the town’s as-
sets, is “not unheard of but it’s
pretty rare.”
MacDonald stressed the
fact that the idea of full priva-
tization isn’t anything he’d
recommend.
“We would never sell our
water system,” he said.
Wadsworth said that Co-
hasset actually bought its op-
eration back from American
several years ago, then re-con-
tracted with the company.
The potential benefits of
having a private company
manage a department would
be seen by the ratepayers in
the form of lower rates, Wad-
sworth said. The town itself
wouldn’t save much money,
although they could make a
little bit because any assets (in
Duxbury’s case, it would only
be department vehicles) would
become taxable.
“Because it’s an enterprise
account [separate from the
town’s general fund] the bene-
fit would be to the rate payer,”
Wadsworth said. “The town is

cerns about the site, including
worries from Recreation Di-
rector Gordon Cushing that
the turbine would become a
giant bull’s-eye.
“The highest point of the
golf course is like it was plant-
ed there by the gods,” he said.
Duggan said Duxbury is in
a “fortuitous situation” as far
as wind power goes, the town
has several high points that get
plenty of wind.
“The right place for it is
critical,” he said.
Broadrick, who has some
experience working with tur-
bine applications, said the ide-
al situation for a wind turbine
is to have the blades about 30
feet above the tree line, with
the towers reaching between
120-160 feet high.
Broadrick said that there
are a lot of misconceptions
about wind turbines, such as
the fear that the turbine will
collapse and damage buildings
in its shadow.
“That’s the same thing we
heard about cell towers,” he
said. “It’s really not necessar-
ily true.”
Broadrick also said that
recent advancements in wind
turbine technology now al-
low the energy saved from a
turbine located anywhere in
town to be allocated to a spe-
cific use. For example, energy

located at North Hill could be
applied to the high school. In
some towns with turbines, he
said utility companies are giv-
ing credits for excess energy
generated that can be put back
into the grid.
MacDonald said the town
is still several steps away from
a turbine, including investigat-
ing all possible grants. He said
Town Meeting would likely
have a say in any installation.
However, he said energy
needs must be on the town’s
radar moving forward, point-
ing out that he has asked the
committee steering the search
for a new crematory building
to include some kind of heat
recapture.
“Anything we’re going to
do from here on out is going to
have some kind of energy sav-
ing measure associated with
it,” he said.
Duggan said that wind
power is just one of the ways
his committee is seeking to
save the town money.
“We’re not into science
experiments, we want it to be
worthwhile,” he said. “Now
more than ever municipalities
have to look hard at where
their energy costs are going.
Our job is looking at any and
all ways to save money.”

Bill leaves waves in his wake

Katerina Heitkamp catches the perfect wave on Duxbury Beach over the weekend.

People arrived with their boards all day long. Tim Flynn brought his
sons Patrick and Sam for some surfing.

Photos by Deni Johnson

Rough seas and heavy surf turned Duxbury Beach into a surfer’s paradise over the weekend.

Surfing was awesome on the beach as experienced by Phillip

Heitkamp on Sunday afternoon. Nicole Callander, Seton Swiderski and Abby Melia do some twisting in the waves.

A large roller heads into shore – and the swimmers love it. Romping in a very warm surf are Hayden Fownes, Peter Tenaglia and Lauren Tenaglia.
Wednesday, August 26, 2009 Duxbury Clipper 19

Schools ready for new Paperback books and

start times, other changes poster giveaways
continued from page one
the Duxbury Student Union,
and Duxbury Before and After
Dark.
“This is opening up that
whole piece for all of our
kids,” she said, adding that she
wants the programs to be per-
ceived as more than just “an
hour of childcare.”
When the start time was fi-
nalized by a vote of the school
committee in February, parents
complained that the move was
made without enough commu-
nity input.
The district has formed a
sleep needs study committee,
which Skeiber said will be
monitoring the progress of the
initiative throughout the year,
as well as listening to feed-
back from parents.
“As we go through, we’ll
ask, ‘how is it working?’” she
said.
The committee has put to-
gether a communication plan,
Skieber said, and this fall
they’ll they’ll start to get anal-
ysis of the student and parent
surveys they did last spring.
“We anticipate as we do
with any program, there will
be some glitches,” she said.
There is also a plan to
conduct more surveys in the
fall and spring, determining
the change’s impact on high
school and middle school kids,
as well as Alden families. She
cautioned that any results of
the change may not be evident
right away.
“It wouldn’t be wise to say
that you’ve got any kind of
results in that first year,” she
said.
Although it may have re-
ceived the most attention, the
new start time won’t be the
only change in the school dis-
trict next year.
There will be 25 new
teachers, which Skeiber said
is about average in terms of
instructor turnover, although
it is a little less than last year.
There are two new administra-
tors, new Special Education
Director Bruce Cole and a new
curriculum coordinator.
Relating to special educa-
tion, the district will start a new
co-teaching program, where
regular and special education
instructors will teach together
in the same classrooms.
“I think it is a strategy that
will benefit all the kids in the
class room,” said Skeiber. “It
ensures that the curriculum is
available to all our kids, in-
cluding those in IEPs [Indi-
vidualized Education Plans].”
There are also two new
additions to the school cam-
pus. The new field turf behind
the high school will provide a
better playing surface for the
high school sports teams, but
district officials are hoping the
benefits will extend beyond
football and lacrosse seasons.
Skeiber said she and Athletic
Director Thom Holdgate are
working with organizations
interested in renting out the
field, which would produce
some additional revenue for
the district.
“I would foresee that there
will be groups that want to use
it,” she said.
The turf field has been in-
stalled, and the final pieces of
the complex, the track and the
lights, are being worked on.
“That’s in pretty good
shape and should be ready for
use shortly,” Skeiber said.
The school and Sustain-
able Duxbury have partnered
to install solar panels at the
Chandler School (which also
received a new roof this sum-
mer). Although the energy
generated by the panels won’t
make much of a dent in the
school’s utility bills, Skieber
said the educational compo-
nent will be invaluable.
“Our kids are going to
be able to see how that kind
of green technology actually
works,” she said.
Overall, Skieber said she
wants to see the school district
continue to move forward.
“Education for too long
has been characterized as
what’s the latest and greatest,
and let’s jump on the band-
wagon,” she said. “We want to
stay on a course that’s going to
result in a great curriculum.”
All children who used a game board as part of Starship
Adventure at the Library and have completed at least 24 items
may select a free paperback book when they visit the chil-
dren’s department. The books will be available through Sat-
urday, Sept. 5 and are a special gift to summer readers in cel-
ebration of their efforts from the Friends of the Duxbury Free
Library. Children need to bring in their game board in order to
make their book selection.
Three exceptional NASA posters have been on display in
the children’s department during the summer and will be given
away to three lucky children. The posters include: the Lunar
Reconnaissance Orbiter, a 24” x 33” overview of the Orbiter’s
exploration; U.S. Space Exploration, a 29” x 60”graphic out-
line of space exploration from the 1960’s through the 1990’s
and a 17” x 23” READ poster of one of first astronauts to
walk on the moon. Children interested in the posters should
complete a brief summer survey available in the children’s de-
partment. A raffle ticket for the poster drawing will be given
out upon receipt of the survey. The last day to enter the draw-
ing will be Wednesday, Sept. 2.

A new year,

start times
W
By Susan K. Skeiber, Superintendent of schools
ithin the next few days, our schools will once
again open to begin a new school year for
the students of Duxbury. The beginning of a
new school year for our students means new classes with
new teachers and, for some grades, a new school. This year
our beginning will also be marked with the implementation
of new school start times. For students at both the middle
and high school, the new start time will
be 8:15 a.m. and for students at Alden
School it will be 7:45 a.m.
The decision to change the start times
is based on research that identifies issues
related to sleep for adolescents. These
issues include the physiological changes
that occur at this age and its impact on an
adolescent’s ability to fall asleep earlier in
the evening, resulting in fewer hours of sleep when dealing
with an early school start time. Research identifies the
outcomes of insufficient sleep and its effects on learning, as
well as the everyday functioning of students at this age. The
healthy learning and functioning of our students is always
central to all decisions. This decision was of the utmost
importance when considering the impact on our elementary
students. We are confident that this change will meet the
needs of our students at all levels.
The decision to change the start times for our schools
has been discussed and debated at great length. However,
once decided the implementation became the critical focus.
A Start Time Committee was formed to address three
committee charges, which included the implementation, the

Quebec City, Montreal, Niagara Falls and the Red Sox –– all in one week!
Our tour guide was a native

S
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
justin@duxburyclipper.com
everal years ago, I
took a trip with my
family to Montreal
and Quebec, in Canada. I ab-
solutely loved these two very
different, but unique and ex-
citing cities and for years I’ve
been talking with my wife
about planning a trip back.
Last week we drove across
Canada, spending two days in
Quebec, two days in Montreal,
then ending the trip in Toronto
at a Red Sox game. It was a
whirlwind trip, and we both
logged a LOT of hours behind
the wheel of Kelly’s trusty
Nissan Sentra, but we came

1&

home with some wonderful
memories and learned some
things about our neighbors to
the north.
One the first day, Friday
Aug. 14, we left after work (of
course I couldn’t leave my du-
ties at the Clipper early) and
stayed at a hotel in Derby, Ver-
mont, near the Canadian bor-
der, so that we didn’t have to
cross the border that day. On
Saturday, we bought a few
last-minute supplies from a
dollar store (about the only
store in town, by the way) and
headed for Quebec.
Quebec City
We headed straight for the
old city, high atop the cliffs
facing the St. Lawrence River.
I can see why the city was of
such strategic importance for
the English and French as they
The Catholic religion is very important to the Québécois, and

Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, located about 20 minutes from Quebec
City.
battled over who would control
the new world, so many years
ago. The city’s name comes
from the Algonquin word ké-
bec, meaning “where the river
narrows,” and it’s true –– the
St. Lawrence is so much wider
than any rivers we have around
here. When you visit the Cita-
del, the fort the British built at
the top of the cliffs after they
took over the city in 1759, you
can just see the cannons firing
down on any ship that tried to
pass deeper into Canada.
Getting into the city in
mid-afternoon, we decided to
take a guided tour of the city.

province. Go just a few miles 
outside the tourist areas of
the city, to a gas station or a
restaurant, and no one speaks
English. (My French, by the
way, doesn’t go beyond “Bon-
jour” and “Merci.”) I’ve al-
ways wondered why this is the
case, since Quebec has been
part of an English-speaking
nation since before the Ameri-
can Revolution.
The answer, according to
our tour guide? It’s our fault.
When the British original-
ly conquered Quebec, they did
indeed outlaw the French lan-
guage and Catholic religion. In
1774, however, the British were
afraid that Canada’s French
speaking residents would join
the 13 colonies in their revolu-
tion, so they granted language

Roots run deep at fair Benefit for Christopher’s Haven

continued from page one

dug in. Mushy as it sounds, the words “farm” and “home”

bear weight and substance for me now. Once only a beloved
dream and memory of rural roots, my Fair connections have
grown over the years. I’ve cultivated them long enough that
I now have “fair time,” when I show up, throughout the year.
My volunteering for the Fair has grown and now includes
volunteering as a 4-H adult, and there are both Fair and 4-H
activities year ‘round, many right here in Duxbury.
My one trick: I take my vacation during the Fair week,
including the weekends before and after. It sounds like
bragging about dedication, but the choice is actually the
wildest self-indulgence in my life. This year especially, I’ve
taken on a supernumerary role in 4-H helping to stoke the “kids
do the work and get the credit” aspects of the program. The
job has given me the perfect excuse for spending hour after
hour in the barns, learning from the kids and adults who are the
real farmers and cowboys around here. Truly, I am learning
a lot about farming, and I only had to arrest myself once for
doing a project that kids should be running. On Aug. 15, three Duxbury residents (and 21 people total) took part in the 2nd Annual Cape Cod
You’ve still got time to put down your roots and your Bay Challenge. The CCBC is a 30-mile crossing from Plymouth to Provincetown by stand-up
family’s at the Fair. Start at the parking entrance on South paddleboard to benefit Christopher’s Haven, a place for families to stay during cancer therapy at
River Street at the back of the fairgrounds, the only parking Mass General Hospital. The participants included individuals from across the globe, a profes-
that actually supports the Fair. Check out any of the 4-H sional paddleboarder, the founder of Vec surfboards (on the Cape), the CEO of Wachusett brewery
activities, where you’ll see a growing number of Duxbury and a local celebrity (Dave Chokachi from Plymouth and Baywatch fame). The crossing took nine
kids young and old and their pleasantly surprised parents. hours.
Watch Supercross motorcycle racing tonight (Wednesday) and
the Demolition Derby Thursday through Saturday evenings,
including the Figure 8 Demolition Derby finals on Saturday.
Want to actually participate? You missed the Cow Flap
Toss, but you can still try the Frying Pan Fling at 6 p.m. on
Friday. Any age can participate (there are age classes as
needed). Teams of pulling ponies will compete on Sunday
afternoon, the final draft animal competition. Oxen pulled on
Friday, opening day, and the horse pulling is scheduled for
today, Wednesday, starting at 1 p.m. The schedules can shift
a little, so come early and expect to stay late. Everything up
home takes longer than it should, what with everybody else
putting their roots down, too. But stay with it, and plan a little
more for next year. Sunday at 4 p.m. there’s a talk at the flower
show about how to enter next year’s horticulture shows with
flowers of your own.
All around you’ll see so many Duxbury friends you’ll
think it’s Old Home Day, just like the one in my Judi’s home in
Hancock, New Hampshire. I guess it is, for me. Home. My
own Hancock, a jewel in the sun, the Marshfield Fair.

Tour de Hunter to promote kayaking safety in former resident’s memory
T
Jenna Seoane & Brendan Cohen
Special to the Clipper
hanks so much for
listening to our
story. Drew and I
were in Machu Picchu just a
few days before his accident,
and we talked about doing
something “extraordinary”
together. That was Drew’s
dream to fulfill in his lifetime
... to do something “extraordi-
nary.” Drew’s favorite maga-
zine was “Outside” magazine,
which is a magazine for ad-
venture sports - such as kayak-
ing, snowboarding, kiteboard-
ing, etc. Drew was passionate
about anything and everything
that got his adrenaline pump-
ing. Anything Drew did, he
was passionate about, and he
excelled to his best ability.
Drew Hunter was killed on
June 4, 2009 on Black Gore
Creek, in East Vail, on a run
called the Fish Ladders.
When Drew passed, I
mentioned the conversation
Drew and I had about doing
something “extraordinary” to
Brendan, Drew’s best friend.
We wanted to fulfill this dream
for him, while in the process
promote kayak and whitewa-
ter safety.
We are trying as best we
can to get some sort of positive
out of this horrible tragedy,
and to honor Drew in a way he
would love. Drew would ab-
solutely want everyone to con-
tinue enjoying kayaking, just
as he did, but to understand
that safety is a huge part of the
sport.

life. Kayaking and snow-
boarding were some of his

Riding to remember
OUR MISSION:
The Tour de Hunter raises
money to promote kayak safety
and education in honor of Drew
Brian Hunter. Hunter lost his
life in a kayaking accident in
June 2009. Drew’s fiance Jenna
Seoane, and best friend Brendan
Cohen, honor Drew’s passion-
ate life by encouragaging kay-
akers to stay safe on the river.
The Tour de Hunter promotes
safety skills with the guidance
of kayak safety cards, available
at sporting good stores and
