Pine Grove Men’s Club of North Haven is helping Connecticut Food Bank feed thousands. Created in 1967 with the mission of raising money for those less fortu-nate, the Pine Grove Men’s Club has donated over $1,800 to the Connecticut Food Bank since 2010.
“Over the last four years, Pine Grove Men’s Club has donated the equivalent of 4,175 meals to people in need,” said Mary Ingarra, communications director of the Connecticut Food Bank. “In Connecticut, there are more than 520,000 peo-ple who don’t always know where their next meal is coming from and 157,000 are
children. We are extremely grateful for the Pine Grove Men’s Club and its continued generosity year after year.”

The snow day count is up to eight for North Haven schools, so the school year is extended, but the April vacation is safe.
Superintendent of Schools Robert Cronin said, “We can have five more snow days before taking away from April vacation.” February vacation had already been reduced to two days in an effort to maintain the school calendar, which cannot go beyond June 30 ac-cording to state statute.
But the snow days have already impacted the end of the school year.
“On the original calendar for this year, our last day was supposed to be June 11, but we are now in school through June 23 because of snow days,” Cronin said.
Heavy snow last year prolonged the school year to June 28, which led to the cuts in the February vacation.
“Weather conditions extend the school year be-cause the days are always made up at the end of the year, “Cronin said.

More than 60 hungry taste-testers came out to the Knights of Columbus lodge in Hamden on Saturday night, March 1, for the sec-ond annual Rotaract Chili Cook-off.
“We came up with the idea because we were looking for a unique fundraiser to do in the winter and this seemed like a good fit,” said Rotaract member Elyssa Getz.
Getz, along with Lauren DiNorscia, organized the event as part of the ongo-ing fundraising efforts by the Rotaract Club of Greater New Haven. The club, spon-sored by Rotary, is geared for young professionals un-
der 35-years-old, who col-laborate on service projects locally and internationally.
“We had more people come out this year than last, so I am very pleased,” Getz said.
For a $25 entry fee, 10 hopefuls entered their own versions of a winning chili recipe into the battle of the crockpots, as everyone tried to beat out one another for the top three cash prizes.
“This is an outstanding event and perfect for this time of year,” said Frank Buono of North Haven.

Residents urged to report suspected child abuse By Ken LiebeskindThe North Haven Citizen
Local singers and actors are invited to audition for the new North Haven Repertory Theater on March 11 and 13 at the Memorial Library at 7 p.m.
Auditions for the reper-tory theater’s first produc-tion of cabaret love songs on June 13 and 14 will be held. The show will be performed in North Haven at a location to be determined.
Jen Berlin, the producer, started the repertory theater with director Laura Bailey and other board members. “There isn’t enough com-munity theater and we want to get out there and provide enhancement of the arts and entertainment and develop talent that’s around here,” she said. “I’m a resident of North Haven and don’t think we have a lot of community theater here.”
She said the group will per-form a cabaret show in June
and plans to perform “A Little Shop of Horrors” in October.
Singers and actors 15-years-old and older are invited to audition for the cabaret. If you attend an audition, you should prepare 16 bars from a musical of your choice. You may be asked to sing a se-lection from “The Phantom of the Opera,” “Written in the Stars” or “Fiddler on the Roof.”
Berlin said at least seven or eight singers will be se-lected at the auditions and
possibly 15 or more. “There are 32 songs in the cabaret,” she said.
The director, assistant di-rector and theater board members will attend audi-tions and select performers.
“Ensemble pieces will be included, so even if you’re not a strong singer you may be able to perform,” Berlin said.
You can get more informa-tion on the theater at www.NorthHavenRepTheater.org and www.facebook.com/NorthHavenRepTheater.

Fowler, a town resi-dent for 43 years who was named North Haven Citizen of the Year for 2013, will appear at the Board of Selectmen meeting on April 3 to discuss new cases and explain the problem of child abuse that plagues North Haven as it does every town.
“People think it can’t hap-pen in North Haven but it
happens everywhere and North Haven is no excep-tion,” Fowler said. “In the last three years, there were 12 arrests in North Haven that were child abuse related that led to seven convictions.”
Fowler says the 12 arrests

The North Haven Middle School Building Committee has interviewed four firms and selected one to provide a schematic design for the ren-ovation of the school that will be presented to the town in a June referendum.
Perkins Eastman was se-lected over three other com-panies by scoring highest on a test, according to commit-tee Chair Gary Johns. The Stamford firm had prepared a feasibility study for the hybrid job in which a new classroom building will ac-company renovations of other school facilities,
The firms were interviewed Feb. 27 and 28 and the selec-tion was made Feb. 28.
The company will be paid $120,000 for the schematic design it presents to the town in June and $2,865,880 for the final designs that will be prepared after the proj-ect is approved in the June referendum, Johns said. He said the $120,000 will be paid by the town, not the Board

of Education and must be approved.
Prior to the town’s vote in June, the Board of Education, Board of Finance and select-men must approve it. Perkins Eastman will meet with school officials, residents and parents before it submits its designs. No dates for the meetings have been set yet. Fritz Morris, a project man-ager at Perkins Eastman, said
the company is preparing a schematic design that will meet budget numbers.
First Selectman Mike Freda has said the job will cost roughly $50 million. The state will apply for state financing that will pay 39.64 percent of the total.

When you take extra care to wash your hands this sea-son, you may be protect-ing yourself not only from inf luenza, but also from the “stomach flu,” which is medically known as viral gastroenteritis.
School nurse Barbara Hegg, of Emma Hart Willard Elementary School in Berlin, asked her colleagues and said that the consensus is that they noticed what appeared
to be “a GI bug going around since Christmas.”
Memorial Middle School-Middlef ield nurse Fran Ciarleglio said that she, too, noticed some stomach irri-tation and vomiting among students, but that it has been decreasing in recent weeks.
Overall, “we’re in no worse shape than any other winter,” Hegg said.
School District Charge Nurse for North Haven, Annette Sauerbrunn, agreed that illnesses have been nor-mal for this time of year, and
Area nurses weigh in on ‘stomach flu’ season By Charles KreutzkampSpecial to The Citizen

The Central Connecticut Health District advises the following to prevent becoming ill:• Wash your hands – Hand-washing is the single best way to
prevent illness and disease. It is important to maintain adequate hand-washing while sick, especially when coming into contact with others, before and after using the restroom, changing diapers, and preparing food. Adequate hand washing includes a thorough wash on the tops and bottoms of hands, underneath fingernails and between fingers. An easy way to remember is to rinse hands, lather with soap and scrub for 30 seconds, or sing “Happy Birthday” twice. For more information, visit cdc.gov/handwashing/
• If feeling symptomatic, the Central Connecticut Health District advises the following:
• Stay Hydrated - This illness can quickly become fatal to individuals who do not adequately rehydrate, especially in young children and the elderly.
• Stay home – Even if you are feeling slightly ill, it is best to stay home to prevent further infection as well as getting others around you sick. Symptoms usually last 24-48 hours, so it is best to rest up and let the illness pass.
said that she hasn’t noticed gastrointestinal symptoms “out of the ordinary for peak flu season.”
Viral gastroenteritis can be difficult to distinguish from colds or the flu, since they have many symptoms in com-mon. The difference between the diseases lies in their cause: the influenza virus infects the respiratory tract, but stomach flu can be caused by a rotavirus, norovirus, or adenovirus. Rotaviruses, for example, infect the small in-testine. Contagiousness var-ies depending on which virus is causing the illness.
The CDC has noted that a new strain of norovirus, the Sydney strain, emerged in 2012. Although the disease is widespread, it is not sig-nificantly more dangerous than any other norovirus, and rates of gastroenteritis have remained seasonally normal since the new strain emerged, the CDC said.
Whichever virus causes stomach flu, the result is the same: painful gastrointesti-nal symptoms.
“The main symptoms of viral gastroenteritis are wa-tery diarrhea and vomiting,” Central Connecticut Health District Health Educator Lori DiPietro explained, citing the CDC.
Other symptoms may in-clude headache, fever, stom-ach ache, and abdominal cramps. The disease usually lasts one to two days, but may last one to 10 days depending on which virus caused the symptoms. The CDC says
that the stomach flu viruses are also known to rise and fall with general flu season. Because of the risk of dehy-dration, it is crucial to stay hydrated while sick with stomach flu.
“Most people think that it is beneficial to drink sports drinks that are high in sugar and salt, but natural remedies
(or plain water) are more ef-fective at keeping you hy-drated,” DiPietro said. The National Institute of Health recommends drinking small amounts of water, slowly, when experiencing gastroin-tenstinal distress. This can decrease stomach upset and make it easier to keep water down.
Design
ted out other options,” Morris said. The hybrid model was chosen over renovating the existing school and building a new school on Bailey Road. “Now we have to sharpen our pencils and fine tune it to pro-vide what the town is looking for from an education and de-
sign perspective. It’s an ag-gressive schedule,” he said.
Johns said the town refer-endum is scheduled for June 17, with the proposal submit-ted to the state by June 30 to meet its deadline. If the dead-line is missed, the town will have to wait until 2015 to sub-mit the proposal to the state for financing.

Schools
Today’s school nurses face much more than Band-Aids and bruises. These days, they are trained to tackle ev-erything from basic medical care to playing a key role in emergency response.
“It is a very different world now,” said Annette Sauerbrunn, charge nurse for the North Haven school nursing department.
In North Haven, there are six full time nurses in each school, along with an addi-tional part-time nurse in the high school.
“They are all such ded-icated and caring profes-sionals, including our small but loyal pool of substitute nurses,” Sauerbrunn said. “Between the six of us, there are more than 200 com-bined years of professional experience.”
In additional to the med-ical training and continu-ing education hours the nurses must complete yearly, North Haven nurses are also trained in school security, emergency response and participate in lockdowns and fire drills.
“As the only medical pro-fessional in the school, the nurse is one of the first people to respond to an emergency, along with the administra-tors,” Sauerbrunn said. “The nurse’s role is to direct the care and treatment required
by the situa-tion, until the fire or police departments arrive.”
Not o n l y h a ve t h e t i m e s changed in our schools, with a greater f o c u s o n sa fet y a nd security, but so have the needs of the students.
“There a r e m o r e chi ldren in school now with complex medical prob-lems like diabetes, asthma, and severe food allergies that require a lot of individ-ualized attention,” said Fran Bennitt, a nurse for 22 years, f ive years at Clintonville Elementary School. “The challenges we face on a daily basis make this a very re-warding career.”
Joanne Benevento, who has been a nurse for 54 years, 25 of those years at the High School, says she has also seen the job intensify over the years.
“Students’ medical issues have become more complex along with insurmountable paper work, there are stu-dents with ongoing medical issues, psychological issues, depression, and anxiety is-sues,” Benevento said.
Sauerbrunn says her nurses are prepared to han-dle the variety of issues stu-dents face thanks to their training, as well as the edu-cation programs they attend that are specific to school nursing, such as concussion management, mental health issues, diabetes care, and se-vere food allergies.
“All the nurses in North Haven attend various work-shops during the year, and occasionally during the sum-mer, too.”
Benevento adds that all of their nursing experience be-fore working in the school system also plays a part in being able to do their jobs efficiently.
“I feel it is absolutely nec-essary to work in a hospital setting before pursuing a ca-

have the privilege of witness-ing the transformation from later childhood into young adulthood,” Sauerbrunn said. “So many changes occur in those three short years, and I truly enjoy helping them along their journey.”
“I love seeing their growth over the years physically and mentally. Their personal-ities are uplifting most of the time and are thankful for any care they are given. It is very rewarding to me.” Benevento said.
All of the North Haven school nurses are members of the Association of School Nurses of CT, a professional organization devoted to is-sues relating to school health. In addition, Sauerbrunn is a board member of ASNC, serving as chairperson of the Newsletter Committee.

Free healthy home inspectionsHome is a place of com-
fort for many of us. It can be our fortress away from the world. Whether you spend the majority of your time at home, or on the go, home is the base that brings families together.
The quality of our phys-ical home environment is a crucial but often over-looked factor of the health of our families, especially for young children, older per-sons, those whose immune systems are weaker, or those who have asthma.
The indoor environment can easily be a breeding ground for illness or unin-tended injury. According to the Connecticut Department of Public Health, nationally, asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases and a leading cause of dis-ability in children, and in recent years, asthma di-agnoses have increased in Connecticut. Often times, there are factors in the home that can trigger these asthma attacks.
The indoor air quality in-side a dwelling can greatly affect health because there are gases that can be emitted from sources in the home. These gases are odorless and colorless and can spread unnoticeably. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors can help warn you if certain gases become dangerous. Testing the air for radon will also help protect your long-term health.
There are other aspects of the home environment that can be unsafe or contribute to an unhealthy condition. Window screens should fit properly and be in good re-pair in order to prevent pests (bugs and bats) from enter-ing the home.
If there are children in the home, idle electric outlets should have safety plugs. Handrails on staircases and good lighting in stair wells can prevent falls.
Simple actions can make a big difference in preventing unintentional injuries.
In an effort to increase awa reness of com mon household dangers and how to effectively safeguard your home against these risks, Quinnipiack Valley Health District, the local health de-partment for North Haven, Bet ha ny, Ha mden a nd Woodbridge, offers a free home assessment geared towards creating healthier living conditions for the res-idents of the district.
“Healthy Homes” is a pro-gram available to residents of the health district, whether you are a homeowner, land-lord or tenant, who wants recommendations and in-formation about how to in-crease the health quality of your living conditions.
A home assessment is per-formed by an environmen-tal health specialist who will walk with you through your home and address a vari-ety of environmental health and safety concerns includ-ing: mold, lead, allergens, asthma, carbon monoxide, home safety, pesticides, and radon as recommended by the national healthy homes initiative.
The assessment may in-clude water testing for peo-ple who have private wells. The goal of the program is to decrease housing-related injuries and illnesses.
For more information, call Quinnipiack Valley Health District, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. at (203) 248-4528,

CIAC to crown eight football championsCHESHIRE —The CIAC
Football Committee an-nounced Feb. 25 that the state playoffs will revert to a two-tier system by eliminating the quarterfinal round for the 2014 season and will crown eight champions instead of four by dividing each of the four existing classifications in half.
Using the prevailing CIAC point system, the top eight teams in Classes LL, L, M and S will be determined after the regular season concludes the week of Thanksgiving. The eight qualifiers in each classi-fication will then be reseeded based on school population, divided into two four-team brackets and a champion of each bracket will be crowned.
The semifinals will be played on the Saturday 10 days after Thanksgiving and the final on the following Saturday. With the quarter-finals in place as they were from 2010-13, teams had to play three games in a 10-day span, which state and national medical groups
deemed unhealthy.“The meeting in January
confirmed that we had health and safety issues,” said Paul Hoey, the CIAC’s associ-ate executive director. “The new format is based on rec-ommendations from the Connecticut State Medical Society committee.”
The CSMS recommends a minimum of one week be-tween games, a CIAC spokes-man said.
The Football Committee, chaired by Leroy Williams, determined that 32 teams will still qualify for the post-season. Williams said he didn’t feel that eight cham-pions are too many, but said the committee will revisit the changes for 2015.
“We don’t figure we’re wa-tering it down too much,” he said. “We’ve had some mis-matches at the quarterfinal level, but I think Connecticut can handle eight champions.
“Some of the tech school teams are coming along. Our game has really grown even if numbers are down at the youth level. The number of teams we have is higher than ever.”
By Ken LipshezSpecial to The Citizen
The committee contin-ues to waver on tournament participation, something it’s done since establishing the state playoff system in 1976.
For the first five seasons, one postseason game was played in each of the four classifications.
In 1981, the committee did away with Class LL but cut Classes L, M and S into two divisions so six champions were crowned. The divisions were called L-I, L-II, M-I, M-II, S-I and S-II.
That system lasted for 14 years when it reverted back to LL, L, M and S, and with participation becoming an issue, a semifinal tier was added so that a total of 16
schools qualified. In 2002, the committee
went back to six divisions, inserting ‘MM’ and ‘SS’ di-visions to bring the number of qualifiers up to 24. That was scrapped after the 2009 season.
The weather wreaked havoc on the Class LL play-offs this past year. The final wasn’t played until Dec. 19, after the start of the winter sports season.
Some committee members favored playing the quarter-finals prior to Thanksgiving, rendering the holiday games moot in terms of the point system for qualification. That notion was rejected at the committee’s January meeting.
“We decided then that the schedule would remain the same, that Thanksgiving would remain the same and the leagues that play champi-onship games would remain the same,” Williams said.
Championship games are played in the Fairfield County Interscholast ic Athletic Conference, the South-West Conference and the Naugatuck Valley League.
New Canaan played in the FCIAC Championship against St. Joseph on Nov. 22, lost its only game of the year to Darien on Thanksgiving (Nov. 28), played a Class L quarterfinal game on Dec. 3,

to Pine Grove Men’s Club President Jim Barbieri.
“We chose the Connecticut Food Bank because of all the wonderful things we heard about them,” Barbieri said. “When we went there the first year they took us on a tour of their facility in East Haven and it was overwhelm-ing to see what they do, and how they do it for the less fortunate people of the en-tire state.”
Seeing how much good
one organization can do, ac-cording to Barbieri, was both humbling and inspiring.
“When (Connecticut Food Bank) told us that every dol-lar we donate turns into five dollars for them,” he said, “it blew my mind to know all the goodness they do for these people.”
For over 40 years, Pine Grove Men’s Club has been spearheading local fundrais-ing and donation efforts, in-cluding campaigns for North Haven Food Bank, numerous toy drives, scholarship pro-grams, meals on wheels for the mentally challenged, and other charitable endeavors.
According to Barbieri, the non-profit club was initially formed with the simple idea of trying to make a difference.
“The men in the (Pine
Grove) neighborhood de-cided to start a social club and never having a club house they met at different members homes each month,” Barbieri said. “When the membership began to get bigger they met at the American Legion Hall in North Haven. We raise this money by having dinners and a summer picnic, and the profits are what we use to donate.”
Connecticut Food Bank cannot fulfill its mission to provide nutritious food to those in need without the support from local organiza-tions like Pine Grove Men’s Club, Ingarra said.
“Their ongoing support on behalf of struggling families is making a difference right in their own community,” she said.
With a current 40-mem-ber roster, Barbieri said Pine Grove Men’s Club has had as many as 140 active members at one time, and is eager to help bolster the ranks.
“We have a great organiza-tion and are always looking for new members to join to help with our contributions and share in the activities of our club,” he said. “The mem-bers of our club realize the meaning of doing good for others. Some of the money we raise comes directly from the members themselves.
They reach into their own pockets and give whatever they can afford.”
For more information about Pine Grove Men’s Club and its fundraising activities, contact Jim Barbieri at [email protected]. Connecticut Food Bank encourages supporters to visit their events calendar at www.ctfoodbank.org for the latest events and news. Online registration is now open for Connecticut Food Bank’s 2014 Walk Against Hunger at www.ctfoodbank.org/walk.
Chili
their chili recipe was. “We did a chili cook-off at
our house and they won, so they wanted to take it to the next level,” Spagna said. Her husband and Vivian placed second.
No one was sharing their recipes or secret ingredients and two-time first place win-ner LuAnn Buono said she went to great lengths to make sure she would win again fair and square.
“I had someone else drop off my crockpot of chili to make sure no one knew
which one was mine,” Buono said.
The event raised $600, doubled from last year, with part of the proceeds to ben-efit ‘Right to Play’, an inter-national organization that works to use sport and play to enhance child development and empower children in disadvantaged communities.
The Rotaract Club of Greater New Haven meets bi-monthly on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month in North Haven. For more information on the organization contact: [email protected].

Both the Rams and un-defeated Class S champion Ansonia played 15 games, three more than Division I UConn and only one fewer than the rank-and-file NFL teams.
The committee said that sites and times for the semi-finals and finals would be de-cided at a later date.

Abuse
may not have been enough. “The seven convictions is a good rate, but citizens aren’t reporting many incidents so police can’t investigate. If there were 12 reported cases there could have been 24.”
Fowler oversees the Child Abuse Prevention & Awareness organization with his wife Sallie. One method they use to generate aware-
From Page 2 ness is to give out candy bars in honor of a victim of child abuse who was punished for eating candy. “If we have awareness, people can seek help to alleviate the problem or if they know of a child be-ing abused they can notify au-thorities,” Fowler said.
First Selectman Mike Freda said, “Ray brought the prob-lem to the attention of the town. April is Child Abuse Awareness Month and he continues to create awareness of this insidious problem.”
Fowler receives coop-eration from the Board of Education in identifying vic-tims of child abuse. “Teachers will see signs and symptoms and can identify problems better than anyone,” he said.
He encourages individuals to report incidences of child abuse to the Connecticut Department of Children and Families at (800) 842-2288.
