Chestnut MountainThe Buck Hill Conservation Foundation has launched a fundraising campaign in
order to purchase and preserve a 478-acre property that sits in the middle of the BuckHill Falls Company holdings. The parcel, which encompasses most of Chestnut Moun-tain and wraps around several holes on the white and blue golf courses, is currentlyowned by D & L Land Realty (Louis and Dominick DeNaples) who recently expressedan intent to put the land up for auction this spring if a sale is not agreed to earlier.
In a March letter to the Buck Hill community, Foundation President Tom Widing andPresident Emeritus Frank May reminded supporters that the preservation of ChestnutMountain has been a principal goal of the organization since its inception in 1991. It wasat that time the community lost control of the property following the failure of Buck HillFalls Associates, the developer of the golf cottages.
Word of the D & L’s desire to sell the property reached the Foundation in January.Frank May, who has worked for years in an attempt to regain the property, has hadseveral discussions with the owners and their representatives. To that end, the Founda-tion is attempting to rapidly increase its available funds by soliciting commitments fromprivate donors. Over its history, the nonprofit 501(c)(3) Foundation has created a reserveto be used for such land purchases, but substantially more money is required quickly inorder to make a serious offer on all or part of the property. The Foundation has pledgedto return donations and release pledges if it’s unable to secure the property at this time.
Chestnut Mountain has been seen as crucial to Buck Hill and the larger Barrettcommunity for a variety of reasons. The west edge of the Chestnut Mountain propertytouches Route 191, and it stretches from that high point down to the golf course, where itborders holes 2 and 3 on the White Course and holes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 on the Blue. Itoverlooks the former Deer Lake and is directly across Griscom Run from the Creeksidecottages. The mountain looms above the Buck Hill Creek, a state designated “exceptionalvalue” stream at Margaret’s Falls. The property as a whole is also a vital section of thegreen crescent of largely undeveloped forest that stretches from Skytop on the east,through Barrett Township’s Gravel Preserve, Spruce Lake Retreat and Buck Hill, to theGame Lands on the west.
Cottagers and friends desiring additional information should feel free to contact TomWiding 215-923-9161, Frank May 570-595-3446 or past president Chris Mitchell at 570-595-3875.

Creating a New CarmenThe Buck Hill - Skytop Music Festival is gearing
up for its highly anticipated second season, andpreparations are underway for a new, 90-minuteversion of Georges Bizet’s celebrated opera Carmen. The festival’s rendition of Carmen,possibly the most popular opera ever written, will feature many of the production’s mostmemorable arias and ensembles. The Buck-Hill Skytop Music Festival will take placefrom July 22 to 30.
“It’s very attractive and totally accessible,” says Maestro Peter Mark, the festival’sArtistic Director, commenting on his decision to select Carmen for this year’s jewel boxpresentation. “It’s a natural progression from Porgy and Bess last season because themusic is also very recognizable—even though it is sung in French. Of course, we willproject a running translation—supertitles—in English for anything sung in French, whilethe dialogue will be spoken in English for immediate understanding. Carmen stands verymuch as a precursor of the verismo (realistic) tradition of opera, which includes allPuccini operas and Porgy andBess, for example.”
After selecting the title,Maestro Mark assembled ateam of expertly talentedartists to realize the produc-tion: Director Eric Einhorn,who has directed productionsat the Metropolitan Opera,Wolf Trap, and theGlimmerglass Opera; ScenicDesigner Julia Noulin-Mérat,whose design credits includeLincoln Center, OperaBoston, Director of Designand Production of the Guerilla Opera, and Resident Set Designer for the Attic Theater;and leading lady Audrey Babcock, who has performed with New York City Opera,Seattle Opera, and Santa Fe Opera, among many others.
“It was crucial to find the right team—as many in our audience will think of ourproduction when they think of Carmen for many years after the July 23rd performance.We also needed the right Carmen, with not just a sensual vocal color and expression, butsomeone who also has the right look for the famous gypsy character. Because it is ajewel box production and the story progresses much more quickly in a more intimatesetting, each personality on stage carries even greater responsibility.”
With this in mind, Mark and Einhorn began collaborating with Noulin-Mérat to createa versatile set concept reflecting the many locations in Spain where the opera takes place,from the marketplace to the gypsy camp to the bull ring.
“How do we communicate all of these interiors and exteriors in a fluid way?” Noulin-Mérat says. “Eric has really retained the elements of the storytelling, and it is my job toevoke the texture of Spain. We want the audience to feel enveloped in the story, and toabsorb the sets as part of that story, enhancing the characters and the impact.”
Without the three intermissions typical of the standard version of Carmen, thecreative challenge of this condensed version is to deliver the powerful, dramatic impactand music of the story while moving quickly through the various locations.
The success of the production will ultimately depend on the characters the audiencewill meet on stage. “With a shortened version, we can go to an honest place and givepeople a Carmen they aren’t expecting. They expect her to be a selfish vamp, dark anduncaring, but I argue that she is quite the opposite,” Einhorn says. “She acts in certainways because that is what is expected of her, but this time she actually falls in love withDon Jose. Once she starts feeling real emotions, she runs.”
Babcock, who has been performing the title role for more than ten years, prepared bystudying the language, learning to play the castanets, studying flamenco, and watchingbullfights to understand the mindset of a 19th century gypsy in Spain. “It has been a realprivilege to play her so often. This will be my 17th production, yet there is alwayssomething new. I never tire of the piece. I love exploring the character every single time,and reacting with a new ‘Don Jose.’ We always find new things, always building. Iprepare for the role by listening to flamenco on my iPod and dancing, which gets me intothe headspace of the character. With a shortened version, ‘Carmen’ reacts to the situa-tions much quicker—and as a performer, it allows me to create more in each moment.”
The most exciting part of the production for the team will be weaving students fromthe Pocono Mountain School District and the music festival’s Young Scholars program
into the production. Einhorn, an experienced children’s theater director, says, “I amlooking forward to having an environment where the kids get to work with the profes-sionals. The professionals inspire the students to rise to the occasion, and the studentsinspire the professionals with their hunger for the experience. We share the same passionof performing and dedication to the craft—which will make for a great ensembleexperience.” In fact, Maestro Mark’s long identification with Carmen stems from hischildhood experiences in the Carmen children’s chorus at the Metropolitan Opera. Sincethen he has conducted more than 40 full performances.
The Buck Hill-Skytop Music Festival’s jewel box production of Georges Bizet’s“Carmen” will take place at Pocono Mountain East High School at 7:30pm on July 23,2011, with a discussion featuring Director Eric Einhorn, Maestro Peter Mark and selectperformers following the performance. Tickets are free with a $10 suggested donationand are available at the door on a first-come-first-served basis. Contributors and festivalpackage subscribers will receive preferred seating.

Community Services CommitteeBy Frank J. Dracos, ChairmanCommunity Services Committee
Greetings and Welcome to 2011 and a new Buck Hill year! This winter has beenintense, but it did not deter the wonderful Buck Hill winter programs. Kudos to all thevolunteers who helped make it such a huge success.
The Buck Hill Community Services Committee (your Buck Hill charity), wishes tothank all our 2010 contributors; our success was not as great as in past years, we actuallyraised $8,000 less in 2009. We believe we raised less due to a number of reasons bothlocal and national. Of course any contributions are very much appreciated, and it stillallows us to support the needy in Barrett Township and Monroe County.
There will be a delay in the distribution of funds; we expect distribution to take placethe last week in March. Distribution to organizations and the amounts given will bepublished in the June Breeze.
I believe the resolution of the Barrett Ambulance Corps problem will be favorablyresolved with 24/7 local service originating in Barrett Township. There will probably benew ownership. This was one of the reasons for the delay of final distribution.
Locally we still have an unemployment problem; also real estate values are stilldepressed. The country is moving forward, very slowly, to a recovery from the pastrecession. For these reasons we hope you will be as charitable as possible during our2011 fundraising campaign which allows us to help the needy.
Our 2011 Campaign will kick off in June. The past several years we have asked for aminimum contribution of $175; during our 2011 campaign we will raise that level percottage to $200. We will acknowledge and gratefully accept any contribution.
Indeed, we are blessed at Buck Hill with a comfortable life style, good friends and anattractive setting of beauty not easily duplicated anywhere.
Bless you and God Bless America!
We live, work and play here!

GOLF SHOP NEWS
By Tom O’Malley, Director of Golf
Swing Tip - The Mental GameWe know the value of practice in improving our golf game. Consistent lower scores
aren’t an accident. It takes a committed effort to become better in all aspects of the game.I trust everyone who is committed to uprading their games and lowering their scores isplanning to spend time and maybe take some lessons to help accomplish this goal.
That being said, today I’d like to take a look at another aspect of our games that wetend to overlook, the mental aspect. The mental picture we have as we address each shothas more to do with the outcome than anything we do physically. This is a strongstatement, so let’s take a minute to analyze. Every golf shot results in one of twooutcomes…you were pleased with the shot or you weren’t. Pretty simple…agreed?
A positive mental image of a quality shot allows our already honed skills to take over.We “get out of our own way” when we picture a positive result…before we even hit theshot. This good feeling (picture) relaxes us and our swing performs with no restrictions.
Conversely, what happens when you tell yourself, “Stay away from that bunker,” or,“Don’t hit it in that water?” Your mind immediately focuses on this negative, youbecome tense, afraid, and restricted in your swing. It’s a terrible feeling to have thisnegative picture and we know what to expect when we play in this mindset. Yuck!
Here’s your challenge. Play 9 holes and picture the exact shot you want to hit eachand every time. It won’t be easy and it takes a lot of concentration. Cast off the usualnegative vibes that pop up. Now, when you can consistently make it 9 holes with thosepositive pictures, you can start the process for the entire round.
There are two real truisms in golf…if you picture a negative outcome, you will mostsurely “achieve” this result. But, if you picture a good, positive outcome, chances areyou’ll achieve this also….not every time; but, you’ve now given yourself the very bestopportunity to hit a great shot.
Make a commitment to try this. You haven’t had to work on your swing, it costsnothing, and you will instantly become a better player.
Birdies and Pars.

At 2,200square feet, it is small enough to be easily managed, while providing ample space forparking, dining, activities room, meeting/office space, handicapped restrooms, and aPennsylvania-code-compliant kitchen.
Green technology and materials will be used as much as possible, and plans call for ageothermal heating and cooling system. Renovations will bring the building up to currentbuilding code standards and create the foundation for efficient, cost-effective operationin the future. Outdoor exercise equipment and a lift for handicapped access are planned.All this is being done while preserving the design and character of the original building.
Preliminary architectural drawings have been prepared. Construction is expected tobegin by early summer with projected occupancy in spring 2012.

BUCK HILL BIRDER
By Frank MayThe most recent addition to my antique bird book collection is Birds that Hunt and
are Hunted by Neltje Blanchan published by Doubleday and McClure Company in 1898.It was gifted to me by Rob and Mary Lou Dalziel and is much appreciated. Mary Loupicked it up in Gertie’s Garrett a year ago, and it has a signature on the facing page of aLilian Hyde who made some margin notes and added some extra pictures. If anyone hasany information on Ms. Hyde or where the book came from, I would be interested toknow.
Despite its rather odd organization, the book contains a number of attractive printsand much useful, although dated and somewhat obscure, information. For instance, itincludes a number of common or local names for birds that are no longer in use. Some ofyou who visit Florida in late spring may be familiar with a raptor called the Swallow-tailed Kite. Apparently the common name for this striking bird was “Snake Hawk,” sonamed I assume because it had been observed picking up snakes and dining on the wing.I would think that this could be a very dangerous way to gain a meal, especially in thetropics where many snakes are venomous.
In his introduction, G.O. Shields quotes a study that reports that bird numbers in overthirty states had declined by over 40%, this in 1898. He rails against the plumage tradethat increasingly slaughtered birds by the thousands in order to decorate ladies’ hats.Thankfully that all went away with Theodore Roosevelt’s establishment of the NationalWildlife Refuge System and the Migratory Bird Act adopted in 1918, which made thepractice illegal.
The section that deals with the Wild Turkey is most interesting. I quote the author:“Once abundant so far north as Maine, Ontario and Dakota, this noble game bird, nowhunted to very near the extinction point, has had its range so restricted by the advance ofcivilization, for which is has a well grounded antipathy, that the most inaccessiblemountains or swampy bottom lands, the borders of woodland streams that have neverechoed to the whistle of a steamboat, are not too remote a habitation.” And further, “Itcannot be long at the present rate of shrinkage before the turkey, in spite of its marvelouscleverness, will follow the great auk to extinction.”
The successful capture, breeding and release program has restored the Wild Turkeypopulation to the point that it can be found in all of the lower 48 states. The combinedeffort of wildlife activists and hunting enthusiasts is responsible for one of the greatconservation success stories. We have a resident Buck Hill population that probablynumbers in the hundreds. (Yeah! Try to find them during hunting season.)
Of course for every success there are lamentable failures. During the last century wehave lost a number of bird species for all time, including the Bachman’s Warbler, DuskySeaside Sparrow, the Carolina Parakeet and in the year of the publication of this book,the Passenger Pigeon. Although hope springs eternal, I am increasingly skeptical of thechances that the Ivory-billed Woodpecker has survived.
The increasing threat to bird species, both here and worldwide is the continuing lossof habitat due to development, timbering and industrial farming. That is why our ownefforts here in Barrett Township and Buck Hill to preserve open space for wildlife aswell as for human enjoyment are so important. To that end we hope you will support theefforts of the Buck Hill Conservation Foundation to purchase and protect ChestnutMountain.

A Tracker’s Tools, Tape
Measure and Creative ThinkingBy Fred Ruben
The round footprints in the snowwere in a nearly straight line, with astride of just over 14 inches. It was abeautiful sight to see the tracks cover-ing 15 to 20 yards before the pavedroad made them disappear. Most likelythis was the path of a red fox. A littlelater some small deer mouse tracks inthe snow disappeared in front of a holein the ground where traces of bloodwere barely visible. Did this creaturebecome the meal for whatever animallived in that hole?
Welcome to the world of decipher-ing animal tracks! On Saturday, January15, John Jose, from Otter CreekEnvironmental Education Services,taught a group of Buck Hillers, ages 3to who knows, about the ins and outs ofdetermining “Whose track is that?”- aprogram sponsored by Buck Hill Conservation Foundation.
He demonstrated that the shape of the footprint, the stride (distance from a toe print tothe toe print in front of it), and straddle (imagine wide base walking versus walking astraight line) help us to identify the animal responsible. The essential tool for identifyingtracks is your tape measure.
After studying shapes of footprints and carrying a list of animal strides and straddles,you can become a self-made woodland tracker. Of course some imagination makes it allthe more enjoyable, as the deer mouse account above evidences.
Winter snows here in Buck Hill make this a fabulous way to enjoy our woodlands.I’m going to buy myself a book of animal tracks (with measurements, of course) andhead for the woods near my house.
