| Creative Ink! opens on Pleasant Street |
| BETHEL –The home office of Creative Ink! Of Vermont LLC has opened on Pleasant Street in Bethel, VT. Owner Julie Nelson has been in the graphics and marketing business for over 20 years. She said recently, “The time had come to offer clients the versatility of on-location or off-site freelance graphic design services in both the Mac- and PC-formats.” Nelson has done work for Gifford Medical Center, Chandler Music Hall, and Lincoln Agrisource. Also having extensive experience working for publishers, including Heinemann Educational Publishers in Portsmouth, NH, she says Creative Ink! also offers copyediting, copywriting, and proofreading. When Nelson began her career, she spent five years selling advertising. By investigating her client’s needs and budget, she found she could design ads that spoke directly to the audience and promoted traffic and sales. This has translated into her design skills now in both marketing collateral and editorial ventures. “I often explain to clients, ‘I find it is important to design for esthetic reasons as well as communication results.’ ” Nelson also cites a real need in today’s market for sensible solutions—graphic design that fits restricted budgets and doesn’t require a full-time employee. You can contact Creative Ink! by calling 802-234-6321 or by email: inkcreative@ymail.com. |

| Bethel Skier Hans Truckenbrod |
| Is Eastern Masters Champion, By Chris Costanzo. Bethel’s Hans Truckenbrod, 57, who won the New England Master’s ski championship in the Class 7 category (for 55-60 year olds) for both 2008 and 2009, also won the Masters Eastern Regional championships at Whiteface Mountain, N.Y., in the same category this past March 5-8, by sweeping the four events that comprehend various alpine competitive disciplines. He won each event in the Easterns by small margins. He later said that the Eastern Regional contest was going to be so close that he couldn’t hesitate or strategize while skiing the races. “There was no skiing safe,” he said. “I had to not think about the results, and focus on skiing for fun.” MORE at the Herald of Randolph website: http://www.rherald.com/News/2009/0409/Sports/s01.html |

| BBA Home Show Attracts Crowd |
| BBA Home Show Attracts Crowd With Over 40 Exhibitors By Chris Costanzo. Last Saturday, March 7, marked another Bethel Business Association success in the form of its fourth annual business fair at Whitcomb High School. Formerly known as the Home and Garden Show, the name has now changed to the Home and Business Expo, to better reflect a wider spectrum of exhibitors. As in previous years, visitors passed by a huge and colorful welcome exhibit contributed by Dandelion Acres in the school lobby, and proceeded to the entrance hall and gym packed with booths and tables that beckoned to every interest. There were about 40 exhibitors, ranging from the US Postal Service which was taking applications for passports, to luncheon items offered by the Whitcomb Boosters, plus potpies prepared by the Green Team, a community environmental group. The Bethel Historical Society was there, exhibiting memorabilia, as was the Bethel Rotary Club, promoting community service.

| New Barber Shop Open in Bethel |
| By Chris Costanzo. Bethel barber Jo Russo and her husband, Joe, both seem satisfied with his haircut. Tucked away and partially hidden off of Camp Brook Road (about 1.5 miles from Route 12) is Bethel’s newest business venture—a small two-chair barber shop that opened near the beginning of the year. The barber is Jo Russo and her establishment is a no-frills men’s barber shop. She offers a variety of male haircuts ranging from the standard guy requirement, “I’ve got too much hair, so please remove some of it,” to specific styles such as flattop, military, high and tights, and even Mohawks for those who want them. Jo’s Barber Shop is not the sort of establishment that caters to politicians, news anchors or movie stars who want bouffant hairdos or the latest celebrity innovation in weird tonsorial styling. After all, most down-to-earth Vermont men don’t have a particular interest in that sort of thing, and they make up the bulk of Jo’s customers.

| Bethel Town Hall Project |
| Will Soon Go Out To Bid By Chris Costanzo At a meeting of Bethel’s town hall finance committee last Thursday, Jan. 29, chair Amy Bergamo said that she expected the town hall restoration project to go out to bid around March or April, and hoped that actual work would begin later in the spring. The bid will cover all the basic work necessary to bring the building back to its historical state, consistent with the requirements of the $301,000 Save America’s Treasures federal grant and another $301,000 in matching funds from the town. The approximately $602,000 total for historical preservation forms a significant portion of the approximately one million dollars budgeted for the project from other grants, donations and a town bond appropriation.
