Spooktacular: a haunting eventCalling all little kids, big kids and kids of all

ages! The Better Middlebury Partnership will host its sixth annual Middlebury Spooktacular this Hal-loween season.

Hay bales and pumpkins will decorate the town green on Sunday, Oct. 27. Then the green will be alive with music, dancing and games for all ages from 1-3 p.m. Organizers said this year’s Spook-tacular will feature an even bigger Jumpy Castle than in the past.

The centerpiece will be the hundreds of young-sters (and adults!) dressed in costumes of every imaginable type. You can count on seeing a few wild animals and princesses, though no two will

be alike. Have you ever seen a Star Wars character compete in a potato sack race with a pirate? This is where it could happen. Or a hobo competing in a bean bag toss, or a cowboy jumping on a big, in-flated balloon. It’s fun to see how each child is dif-ferent from the next.

Festivities will kick off at 1 p.m. and will con-clude with a children’s trick-or-treat parade along Main Street led by the legendary Spooktacular Witch. Downtown merchants in association with local dentists generously hand out lots of treats, so bring your candy bucket.

Start designing your costume now. This year’s Spooktacular is sure to be a memorable event.


MONTPELIER — Vermont’s pick-your-own orchards will of-fer a chance to win an iPod during the Apples to iPods promotion that kicked off Sunday, Sept. 8.

In this technology-meets-agricul-ture contest, one specially marked wooden apple is hidden in an apple tree at 16 Vermont pick-your-own apple orchards. The lucky apple picker who finds a wooden apple wins an Apple iPod, iPod Shuffle or iPad. This good-natured promotion of Vermont’s working landscape is in partnership with Woodchuck Hard Cider, Small Dog Electronics, Vermont Tree Fruit Growers As-sociation and the Vermont Agency of Agriculture. The Vermont De-partment of Tourism and Market-ing first launched this promotion in 2007 with hopes of growing participation at Vermont pick-your-own orchards. Since the launch, participation has been incredibly “fruitful” across Vermont.

“Visiting Vermont’s apple or-chards is a family tradition and in true Vermont fashion, the Apples to iPods contest makes this fall event even more fun,” Megan Smith, commissioner of Tourism and Marketing said. “Apple picking is the perfect way to experience Ver-mont’s gorgeous autumn landscape and participate in a festive and tasty activity.”

For a third year, the Vermont De-partment of Tourism is also helping the Vermont Foodbank promote Pick for Your Neighbor, where visitors to participating orchards can pick and purchase extra apples to donate to the Foodbank. Last year, Pick for Your Neighbor made nearly 12,000 apples available to Vermonters in need. “Pick for Your Neighbor is a win for all involved,” Michelle Wallace, program direc-tor at the Vermont Foodbank said. “Orchards see an economic benefit from increased sales, the Foodbank

has access to fresh, local apples for distribution, and participants ex-perience a great Vermont tradition while helping their neighbors in need.”

Vermont’s nearly 4,000 acres of commercial apple orchards produce leading apple varieties: McIntosh, Cortland, Red Delicious and Em-pire. In 1999, the Vermont Legis-

lature designated the apple as the state fruit, and the apple pie as the state pie. For a list of participating orchards, visit www.applestoipods.com.

Pickers should watch for special wooden apples in local orchards
