Students aren’t the only ones going back toclassrooms after summer break.

Before kids returned to schools across thetown on Aug. 29, the local education districtstaff convened the day before in the NorthHaven High School auditorium for Convoca-tion 2012.

“I hope that summer gave all of you the op-portunity to replenish and renew yourselvesin order to return here and take on new chal-lenges,” said Dr. Robert Cronin before an au-ditorium packed with school employees.

The convocation included speeches by sev-eral officials, introductions of new person-nel and acknowledgement of tenure-earnersand longtime teachers.

“I know you’re all excited for the newyear,” said Board of Education ChairwomanAnita Anderson at the speaker’s podium.“The board and I have been working withBob and his staff over the summer. This is re-ally going to be a great year for North Haven.I see new synergies coming into our boardand in the school system.”

Car show to be community eventBy Kyle Swartz

The North Haven Citizen

The fifth annual NorthHaven Police Benevolent As-sociation Car Show fundrais-er will bring hundreds ofvintage and modern vehiclesto North Haven High Schoolthis Sunday, Sept. 2.

“This is going to be a goodday,” said North Haven Po-lice Sgt. and event co-chairChris Thorpe. “Parents canbring the children, remi-nisce about old cars, thinkabout how things used to beand see some modern cars,too.”

“We hope to get 300-500cars,” he added.

This annual event raisesmoney for the PBA, a six-

decade-old civic organiza-tion through which NorthHaven police give back to lo-cal associations and chari-ties.

“Ultimately, the big pic-ture with our annual carshow is that we want it to bea community event, not justsomething for car enthusi-asts,” said North Haven po-lice officer and event co-chair Ted Stockmon. “This isthe biggest event that thePBA sponsors. There will beantiques, classic cares, vin-tage police cars, vintage fireapparatuses, vintage emer-gency response vehicles,retro cars, modern cars,muscle cars and more.”

Other aspects of the carshow will include live music,

various food vendors, carawards and kids’ activitiessuch as a mobile arcade trail-er.

If Thorpe is the organiza-tional force behind the 2012car show, Stockmon is theauto-expert. His personalcollection of classic cars in-cludes a 1976 Plymouth FuryNYPD police cruiser.

“For me, being a fewdecades older than Chris,this event is a connection todifferent times, years ago,when we lived in more of acar culture,” Stockmon said.“Cars were more of an iden-tity back then. You pickedyour car to represent yourpersonality.”

“Cars had more of anidentity back then,” he

Suspects target clothing donation bins,another wields a needle

By Kevin GlennSpecial to The Citizen

What appears to havebeen an interstate chain ofrobberies from clothing do-nation bins ended recentlyin North Haven.

On Aug. 27, during earlymorning hours, a patrol offi-cer saw a white van enterthe parking lot near the in-tersection of WashingtonAvenue and ClintonvilleRoad. The driver of thevan turned off the head-lights as he approached alarge clothing donation bin.As the officer approachedthe van and began to speakwith the operator, he sawtwo sets of bolt cutters andseveral large bags of cloth-ing.

The officer learned thatthe driver and four passen-gers were traveling the In-terstate 95 corridor fromNew York, illegally access-ing donation bins. The mentold police they take theclothing from the bins, andship it to El Salvador.

The officer arrested JulioErazo, 22, Josue Garcia, 22,Jose Castro, 32, Fancisco Er-azo, 18, and Jesus ZalayaMartinez, 34, all from NewYork. Their charges includ-ed criminal trespass, larce-

ny sixth degree, conspiracyand possession of burglarytools. All five men wereheld on a $500 bond.

——-On Aug. 27 at 9:20 a.m.,

North Haven officers re-sponded to a Universal Drivestore for a report of a rob-bery. Officers learned thatLuis Morales, 41, was in theprocess of taking $287 worthof merchandise from thestore without making pay-ment when managementconfronted him. Moralesretrieved a needle from hispocket and threatened to useit as a weapon. He left thestore and got into a vehicledriven by Marionex Garcia,54.

Garcia drove south onUniversal Drive until NorthHaven officers stopped him.Both men attempted to runfrom police, but were takeninto custody following ashort foot chase.

The sky’s the limit in the military for this NHHS gradBy Stefania CiarleglioSpecial to the Citizen

Lt. Alex Petrowski, a 2005graduate of North HavenHigh School, has been fea-tured on ROTC billboards inTexas and can continue toadd to his list of achieve-ments.

The 25-year-old son of lo-cal couple Robert and Joan-na Petrowski served two-and-a-half years of enlistedservice, and is now a UH-60Blackhawk pilot.

“I always wanted to chal-lenge myself, and strive tocomplete goals,” Petrowskisaid. “I always had a fascina-tion with flying, and knewthat it was extremely diffi-cult to be selected as well ascomplete flight training forthe military. After being se-lected to be an aviation offi-cer, I had a strong desire to

fly the Blackhawk due to theversatility of the aircraft.”

In a Blackhawk, his mis-sions vary, including air as-sault, VIP transit, MEDE-VAC (medical evacuation),sling loads (lifting heavyequipment vertically andmoving it via air assets) andreconnaissance operations.

Petrowski also underwentSERE (Survival, Evasion,Resistance, and Escape) Lev-el C Training. Only soldiersthat are placed in high-riskjobs such as Rangers, SpecialForces and Aviators are al-lowed to participate in this21-day course, which is pri-marily designed to imple-ment “high stress” and cap-tivity scenarios.

“I personally love servingin the Army, and love leadingand helping soldiers,”Petrowski said. “After serv-ing two-and-a-half years of

enlisted, I know what it’s liketo be a soldier, and exactlyhow important officer lead-ership is.”

Currently, Petrowski isspending time in Colorado,where he hopes to becomeproficient in high altitudetraining without the use ofpressurized oxygen.

During his senior year atROTC, Petrowski was askedif he would like to be part ofa recruiting program de-signed to appeal to soldiersstationed at Fort Hood, inTexas. The billboards urgedsoldiers to utilize their GIBills.

“At the time I was told itwould be on only one bill-board, and soon grew tothree — two of which areright outside the main gateto Fort Hood,” Petrowskisaid. “The marketingworked, and the ROTC pro-

gram quickly grew due tosoldiers learning what edu-cational opportunities wereavailable to them.”

Back in North Haven,Petrowski’s family has been“supportive and understand-ing” of Alex’s chosen occu-pation.

“I couldn’t be more thank-ful for them in my life,”Petrowski said. “Having asupportive family alleviatesundue stress during times,and allows me to functionbetter as a leader, soldier andpilot. I still keep in touchwith close friends back inNorth Haven, and enjoy com-ing back to catch up withthem when I can. It’s nice tobe able to decompress fromthe Army life and watchsome football with fellow NYGiants fans.”

Petrowski now resides inTexas, but still remembers

his hometown of NorthHaven.

“North Haven is a beauti-ful community and I love thefour seasons,” he said. “I be-lieve it’s not where you live,but where you come from,and I am proud to say I was aNorth Haven Indian.”

In introducing First Select-man Michael Freda, Cronindescribed the relationshipbetween his own executive of-fice and Town Hall. “In thesame way that the school sys-tem succeeds when the par-ents and the school work to-gether on the students’ be-half, I believe the very samecan be said about the townand the school system,”Cronin said.

Like his speech at convoca-tion in 2011, Freda againpledged to be an advocate forlocal education.

“I don’t know if peopleknow how closely we work to-gether, the Board of Ed, Dr.Cronin and myself. My goal isto advance this district for-ward,” Freda said. “You willhave my continued support.”

“In three consecutiveyears, we have not cut backthe Board of Education’sbudget request. In fact, thislast budget season, we in-creased it twice,” he added tothe auditorium full of teach-ers and school personnel.

Others waited in lineto speak with Arnold andshake his hand. The onsitebandstand hosted live musicand a series of speakers, in-cluding Arnold’s son Larry— who at Arnold’s Jewelershas continued his father’straditions of customer-ori-ented service and giving backto the community.

“This event has been hum-bling,” Larry said. “It’s anoverwhelming feeling to seethat people care about ourfamily as much as we careabout their families. Thatmeans everything to us.”

Other speakers includedWalter Gawrych and MichaelFreda, past and present firstselectmen of North Haven,respectively. Together, theyread from a framed officialdocument proclaiming Aug.

27, 2012 to be Arnold LazaroffDay in town.

“Arnold’s Jewelers hasbeen a pillar in the communi-ty since 1968,” Freda said tothe large audience. “Ourcommunity continues to bethe benefactor of the legacyof generosity started byArnold Lazaroff.”

“He is a warm and caringman,” Freda added. “Arnold’sfun-loving personality is con-tagious. He is an exceptionalrole model to his children.”

While Larry follows in hisfather’s footsteps at 117Washington Avenue — nowselling to its fourth genera-tion of customers — Arnold’sother son Stewart has alsofound success with his ownsmall business in town. Likehis father the watchmaker,Dr. Stewart Lazaroff employscareful attention to detail andhandiwork each day as a den-tist.

Numerous employees ofArnold’s Jewelers, many whohave worked there fordecades, have also benefitedfrom their involvement withthe store’s namesake. “Therelationship that Arnold andI have is special. It’s more likebrothers than owner and

worker,” said Michael Mar-tone, who has been storemanager since 1966. “Westayed with each otherthrough every tribulation weencountered.”

“I got drafted into the mili-tary in 1968 and Arnold gave

me my job back when I gotback in 1970,” Martoneadded. “There are not manypeople like him. There arenot many people who live 80years and can still be as vi-brant as he is, or still servethe community the way he

does. He’s admirable.”A day after the event, Lar-

CommentaryAn Ounce of Prevention

Drinking water qualityBy V. Deborah Culligan,

RN, MPH

August was National Wa-ter Quality Month. The Re-gional Water Authority is re-sponsible for making surethe public water supply issafe. It is your responsibilityto protect the public watersupply by obeying rulesposted by water authoritiesand not contaminating pub-lic watershed areas with pol-lutants.

For example, never dumpunwanted household prod-ucts down roadside drains.Roadside drains are calledcatch basins or storm sew-ers. You may think thatthese drains collect waste-water that goes into the sew-ers. But the fact is that manyof these drains are collec-

tion points for drinking wa-ter. Most of these drains donot have filtering systems.The water that they collectoften flows right into thedrinking water supply. It isessential that you neverdump pollutants such asused motor oil or paints norwaste like dog feces or fertil-izers into these drains.Dumping of such productscan cause contaminationand pollution of your com-munity’s drinking watersupply.

It may help if you under-stand the water collection

How to counterpolitical money

By Chris Powell

How to reduce the dis-proportionate influence ofbig money in politics wasthe subject of a meetingcalled the other day inWest Hartford by U.S. Rep.John B. Larson, D-1st Dis-trict.

Larson advocated a sys-tem of public financing ofcongressional campaignssimilar to Connecticut’ssystem of public financingfor state legislative cam-paigns. He also supporteda constitutional amend-ment to nullify the U.S.Supreme Court’s contro-versial decision two yearsago allowing corporationsand unions to spend un-limited amounts on politi-cal advocacy, including ad-vocacy in election cam-paigns, as long as it isspent independently ofcandidates’ own cam-paigns.

While wrestling zillion-aire Linda McMahon isgiving Connecticut a sec-ond lesson about the abili-ty of the super-rich to pur-chase weak political par-ties if not the whole politi-

cal system, the FirstAmendment won’t let thegovernment stop peoplefrom spending their ownmoney on their own cam-paigns. And while theprospect of corporationsand unions spending hugeamounts to run their owncampaigns for or againstcandidates is frightening,so is the prospect of elect-ed officials trying to de-stroy corporations andprivate-sector unions. (Bycontrast, government-sec-tor unions are just crea-tures of the governmentitself and, by definition,conspiracies against thepublic.) For example, re-cently the mayors of SanFrancisco, Chicago, andBoston sought to run theChick-fil-A fast-foodrestaurant chain out oftheir cities because thecompany president had ex-pressed opposition tosame-sex marriage. Hiscompany itself treatedcustomers and employeeswithout regard to sexualorientation, but that was-n’t enough. He had com-

signs, but most of us are un-aware of the exact locationand boundaries of these ar-eas.

Home owners need to takecare of their wells. If youare a homeowner who usesdrinking water from a well,it becomes your responsibili-ty to be sure that your drink-ing water is safe. Manythings can affect a well, espe-cially periods of heavy rain.Periodic water quality test-ing of private well water isrecommended for all privatewell owners, (regardless ofthe weather) and should bepart of routine householdmaintenance. At a mini-mum, private well watershould be tested annually fortotal coliform bacteria, ni-trite/nitrates, pH, color andturbidity.

The occurrence of bacte-ria in well water is common,treatable and in most casespreventable. Many olderwells have the wellhead lo-cated below the ground sur-face. This increases the riskof contamination due to sur-face water intrusion.

Actions to decrease therisk of contamination in-clude: Extending the wellcasing at least six inchesabove the ground surface;providing a watertight wellcap; inspecting and repair-ing any cracks or corrosionin the well casing; and di-recting surface water awayfrom the well.

All work on the well mustbe done by a Connecticutregistered well contractor,with proper permits ob-tained from this health dis-trict. If your well floods dueto heavy rainfall, you shouldconsider it contaminated bybacteria and it should be dis-infected. (Disinfection proce-dures are available from thisoffice.)

mitted a thought crime.Without the recent SupremeCourt decision, companiesunder existential attackwould be unable to defendthemselves in the decisivevenue, elections.

And while arguments forpublic financing of cam-paigns are compelling inprinciple, the details aretroublesome, as public fi-nancing in some formats,like Connecticut’s, canaward equal amounts ofmoney to candidates withwildly different degrees ofsupport and huge amountsto candidates with no credi-ble opposition at all.

A solution to the problemof big money in politics maystart best with where mostcampaign money goes: intobombastic and even totali-

tarian commercials on tele-vision and radio stations,which get their grants ofmonopoly on the public air-waves for free and then,with those commercials,charge society extravagant-ly for the privilege of hav-ing elections.

As the price of their li-censes, TV and radio broad-casters could be required togive large amounts of freecommercial time to the can-didates for major officeswho qualify for the ballot.

To reduce the dema-goguery of broadcast ads,free broadcast time might beawarded only for ads inwhich the candidate ad-dresses the audience direct-ly, without theatrical visualsand sound effects. Thus at-tacks on opposing candi-dates could not be made asthey are now - at a safe dis-tance through sinister-sounding announcers. An

attacking candidate wouldhave to get his hands dirty.

And as the price of itsmonopoly on first-classmail, the U.S. Postal Servicemight be required to pro-vide large amounts of freepostage to the same majorcandidates, provided that acandidate’s free mailings in-clude his photograph tomake him just as account-able for attacks on the oppo-sition.

Free broadcast time andpostage might reduce theneed for campaign moneyby as much as 90 percentand reduce the influence ofspecial interests and self-funding rich candidates.

But the best protectionagainst the influence of bigmoney in politics will al-ways be the civic virtue ofan engaged electorate.

Chris Powell is managingeditor of the Journal Inquir-er, Manchester.

The State of Connecticut,Department of PublicHealth, EnvironmentalHealth Section (with theEPA and UCONN) has pub-lished “A Guide to DrinkingWater Quality.” In thisguide, several recommenda-tions are made for protect-ing your well. Some of thesuggestions are: Knowwhere your well is located;Be sure that the well has acap or sanitary seal to pre-vent unauthorized use of, orentry into, the well; Periodi-cally inspect exposed partsof the well for problems;Slope the area around thewell to drain surface runoffaway from the well; Avoidmixing or using pesticides,fertilizers, herbicides, de-greasers, fuels or other pol-lutants near the well; Andnever dispose of hazardousmaterials into a septic sys-tem.

There are other things tothink about if you have awell. For example, there arewater-related appliances,like well pressure tanks, hotwater heaters, humidifiersand dehumidifiers that helpmake the water most suit-able for your purposes.These appliances need peri-odic maintenance and serv-icing, just like your furnacedoes. Don’t wait until theystop functioning.

Expand ‘First Five’Commentary

By Kyle Swartz

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s “First Five” pro-gram, despite its imperfections, hasachieved more than enough economic-de-velopment success to warrant its continu-ance beyond preliminary goals.

Originally offering state tax credits tothe initial five businesses which could in-vest at least $25 million in Connecticutand add 200 jobs over five years, First Fivenow will aid 15 companies. Bringing steel-product manufacturer Sustainable Build-ing Systems LLC into North Haven —along with 400-plus new jobs — in Julymakes six companies helped since Febru-ary 2011.

In the ongoing worldwide recession,economic development has become an in-ternational game of state and nationalgovernments competing to tender assis-tance packages to lure big businesses intorelocating and/or expanding. With FirstFive, Connecticut has the incentive fire-power to entice these global players. Popu-lating a 400,000-square-foot building whichhad been empty for years, SustainableBuilding Systems will be a new joint ven-ture in North Haven between organiza-tions based in Arizona and Australia.Alexion Pharmaceuticals Inc, whichmoved from Cheshire to a larger locationin New Haven using First Five money, re-portedly could have gone to Rhode Islandhad it not been for Malloy’s program.

Some politicians and business-leaders

have described an anti-business atmos-phere preventing greater commercialgrowth in this state. By enlarging FirstFive, Malloy commendably continues tofight against this negative reputation withhis pro-jobs legislation. This beneficialprogram is increasing the workforce at atime when Connecticut is contendingagainst prolonged problems of unemploy-ment and economic stagnation.

First Five does have flaws. Governmentofficials had to pledge better applicant-vet-ting after TicketNetwork Inc. dropped outof First Five following the arrest of itsCEO — who had behavior issues as recentas 2010 — for allegedly using a racial epi-thet. Furthermore, causing Alexion toseek vaster space in New Haven costCheshire a major taxpayer. When one mu-nicipality receives a boost at the cost ofanother, state leaders must provide eco-nomic-development support to the loser.

Overall, though, Malloy’s business-friendly measure has been constructivefor Connecticut.

Moreover, First Five’s positive impact inNorth Haven showcased the best path to-ward nationwide economic revival — bi-partisanship. Malloy, a Democrat, workedwith the town’s Republican First Select-man, State Rep. and State Senator to getthe deal done. “It’s critical that townswork with the state to bring these sizes ofcompanies into Connecticut,” wisely

chance of back pain:— Lightweight material (canvas as opposed to leather)— Two padded, wide (two inches), adjustable shoulder

straps on the backpack— Padded back— Individualized compartments— Hip strap, waist belt or frame to redistribute the

weight of the backpack from the shoulders and back to thepelvis

North Haven EducationAssociation President TomMarak recollected trials from

last year, and how they mustbe remembered as educationofficials statewide experi-ence new challenges duringthe 2012-13 academic year.

The first day of school lastyear got pushed back due topower outages caused byHurricane Irene, one ofmany real and metaphorical

storms which would affectlocal schools before the finalday of classes, Marak said.Teachers and personnel alsohad to weather closures dueto the freak October blizzardand other snowstorms, andthe gathering force of immi-nent education reform in theCapitol in Hartford.

The disrupting atmos-pheric events are now in thepast. “As educators, we havethe opportunity to make anew start every year,” Maraksaid. “That’s one of the nicethings about this profes-sion.”

However, while Connecti-cut’s erratic weather possi-bly will not be as destructivethis year, education reformcontinues to be a major focusfor state politicians, affect-ing classroom leaders in allmunicipalities.

“We all need to be pre-pared for new changes,”Marak said. “I ask you asmembers of the educationassociation to be involved inthose changes. Take part inthem readily. Help move thisdistrict forward in the cor-rect manner.”

“We’re on the frontlines aseducators. We shape the fu-ture,” he added. “We need tokeep in our minds why weentered this procession inthe first place — we want tomake a difference.”

Athletes everywhere, from profession-als to youth leagues, should take note ofthe recent suspension of professionalbaseball player Melky Cabrera for test-ing positive for a banned, performance-enhancing substance. The San Franciscostar outfielder, former Yankee and 2012All-Star Game MVP will be ineligible forthe next 50 games because a drug screendetected in his body illegal testosteronesupplements.

Taking these injections to induce mus-cle growth amounts to cheating, and canbe a significant health risk, having beenlinked to increasing incidents of heartdisease and prostate cancer. Admittedsteroids-taker Ken Caminiti, who hasconfessed to using during his 1996 Na-tional-League MVP season, died unex-pectedly of a heart attack in 2004 at age41. To indicate that this deadly misbe-havior is no longer acceptable, MajorLeague Baseball officials are right topunish Cabrera severely. Especially be-cause, not long ago, the sport became em-barrassingly tarnished by performance-enhancing substances.

Looking back at baseball statisticsfrom just a decade past, it’s difficult tobelieve that today’s hitters — whose pro-duction is noticeably lesser — competein the same sport. Offense numbers at-tained by athletes in ballparks in the 90sand early twenty-first century are curi-ously prodigious. Professional baseballin America dates back to the 1850s, butthe top six amounts of homeruns everhit by a player in one season all occurredduring 1998-2001. This unusual uptick inpower which rewrote a classic sport’srecord books was at the height of MLB’sSteroid Era. This was a regrettablestretch in which, according to reports, alarge percentage of players abused thestrength-amplifying drug, sacrificinglong-term health for immediate muscu-lar enhancement.

Certainly, this is not what MLB mem-bers should be demonstrating to kids.Young athletes revere professionals.Seeing adult players bettering theirabilities by taking steroids or otherdangerous substances could be enoughfor youths to misjudge the activity ap-propriate or safe. Multiple tests haveshown that steroids, testosterone sup-plements and similar materials have anespecially pernicious affect on still-de-veloping bodies of children and teens.

In the mid-2000s, MLB finally beganto crack down on abuse of perform-ance-enhancing drugs. Tougher screen-ing coupled with harsher penaltiesseems to have worked. Batting numbersare way down compared to the offenseinflation of the Steroid Era. Conversely,pitching numbers have improved con-siderably. Overall, modern hurlers arethrowing harder, and maintaining highfastball speeds deeper into games.Readers are logical to question how thisphysical improvement came about. Arepitchers naturally superior now? Orare they taking some new, untraceable,illegal substance?

Lingering viewer suspicion — notmonumental hitting statistics — is thetrue legacy of the Steroid Era.

What’s much more important,though, is that with Cabrera, MLB lead-ers continue to signal a shift towardsternness regarding dishonest, illicitconduct. While this message apparent-ly has yet to reach all players, areayouth athletes must observe: cheating,particularly of the bodily toxic kind,stands against everything Americansports teach about work ethic, integrityand responsibility to one’s teammatesand fans.

State fire parade this SeptemberBy David Marchesseault and

George GuertinSpecial to The Citizen

The 2012 Connecticut FireConvention will be held in NorthHaven Sept. 14-16, hosted by thetown’s fire department.

At a recent North Haven Ro-tary meeting, Fire Chief VincentLandisio spoke on the subject.The chief said that Ronald Mat-tei, committee chair for the con-vention, has spent countlesshours on the project, whichstarted 10 years ago, and is beingbilled as the “best convention thestate has ever seen.”

Landisio added that one of thefinal duties that former ChiefNick Merola completed beforehis retirement was to commit tothis major convention, which co-incides with the 100-year an-niversary of the North HavenFire Department. He reiteratedthat his department has been ac-tively raising funds for the con-vention for the past two years,with a lofty goal of $100,000, andproudly announced that theyhad raised in excess of $75,000 asof early August.

Landisio explained that hisdepartment believes that to suc-ceed and provide a quality event,they would need at least $80,000.The chief also said that theyhave received sizable donationsfrom TD Bank, Yale NH Hospital,and Quinnipiac University.

Some of the larger eventsplanned include an executiveboard luncheon, a dinner andcomedy show, the convention it-self, and, of course, a huge pa-rade, “the largest that NorthHaven has ever seen,” accordingto Landisio.

After the parade, which is ex-pected to last close to threehours, fire apparatus fromacross the state will be on dis-play at the fairgrounds for resi-dents to view. The parade isscheduled to start at noon fromthe high school complex, traveldown Shawmut Road to BaileyRoad, then down Church Streetto Washington Avenue, and on tothe fairgrounds. It is expectedthat there will be 165 pieces offire apparatus, traveling from asfar away as Maine, as well as 20marching bands.

The chief noted that theNorth Haven Fire Departmentpersonnel, including all paidand volunteer companies, haveput a significant effort into thisproject, which they hope will be

a spectacular event. The con-vention and parade will takeplace, rain or shine.

In addition to delivering Ro-tary’s progress report on the pa-rade, the chief explained therole the club would play in park-ing vehicles for the event, andalso gave an update on the firedepartment building renova-tions which will soon take place.He expects that by next April,the first shovel will go into theground with all of the fire facili-ties being worked on simultane-ously. He closed stating thatthese are “exciting, fun, andvery busy times” for the entiredepartment, and again ex-pressed his thanks to the com-munity for its “terrific support.”
