The Cavendish Community and Conservation Association announced that the annual summer music series on the Proctorsville Green will be held again this year on Wednesday nights in July and August. All concerts are free and open to the public and will start at 6:00 p.m., so grab your lawn chair and a cold drink, and join your friends and neighbors to enjoy plenty of rollicking good music from the gazebo.
The lineup will begin on July 13th with the legendary Chris Kleeman and will continue on July 20th with the sounds of Union Street. On July 27th Rick Reddington will play, then on August 3rd the always popular Gypsy Reel will appear, and capping the summer series on August 10th will be the sounds of Rutland’s own Voodoo Alien Blues Band.
The summer concert series has a long history in Proctorsville and many area residents reserve Wednesday evenings to listen to the live music. This is the second year that CCCA has taken on the task of coordinating the events and they are happy to continue the tradition. As always, the concerts will be held rain or shine, and will move to the Cavendish town elementary school just down the street in case of inclement weather. If you would like to help CCCA would like to hear from you. Call Robin at 226-7736 to volunteer or for more information on the concerts.
The summary schedule is:
July 13th – Chris Kleeman
July 20th – Union Street
July 27th – Rick Redington
August 3 – Gypsy Reel
August 10 – Voodoo Alien Blues Band

On Friday, June 24, Tyler Hill, of Newton, Mass., made a hole-in-one at Okemo Valley Golf Club. Hill aced the 14th hole, from the green tee 205 yards away from the hole, using his three wood. Chris Lesky witnessed the amazing feat.
Hill’s name will be engraved on a hole-in-one plaque, that hangs inside the Okemo Valley Golf Club clubhouse, to honor the fortunate few who have had the exhilarating experience of making a hole-in-one at OVGC.

The Third Thursday program of the Friends of the Library in Ludlow will take place on Thursday evening July 21st at 7pm. We are very pleased to announce that the program will feature a long time resident of Andover, Thomas Brooks. Mr. Brooks whose family was originally from Middlebury has spent much time in Weston and Andover having come to the area as a child. Mr. Brooks was a rifleman in the 10th Mountain Division and fought in 1943-1945 in northern Italy. After the war, he attended Harvard University and became an author of six books, primarily on business and labor history. He has also written for Commentary, The New York Times Magazine, New York and many other publications.
Mr. Brooks will discuss his book "North of Rome, 1944-1945" whose foreward was written by Senator Robert Dole who also fought in this theater of war. After the invasion of France, the Allied armies in Italy found themselves in a forgottten war theater. Until now their eleven month saga of bitter conflict and gallant sacrifice has been ignored. The fall of Rome did not end the campaign. Although the press was no longer paying attention to the action north of Rome, the continue Allied offensive met a fierce German resistance.Their record of courage and sacrifice is described in this long overdue, comprehensive, fascinating account.
Please join us for this enlightening evening. Please use the rear entrance where there is a ramp outside and an elevator inside. For further information, please call 672-4041.
