2. CAVENDISH TELECOMMUNICATIONS UPDATE: TDS
On October 30, the Cavendish Telecommunications Committee met with representatives from TDS about upcoming changes. In February, when Scott Brooks of TDS, meet with the Select Board, he explained that a new line would be added so that Proctorsville and Perkinsville would no longer be sharing the same bandwidth line. That plan has since been changed and the new one is to establish a 10G “ring” for those being served from the Proctorsville Central Office (PCO)-Main Street in Proctorsville (about 350 customers). This is a Calix E7 fiber system, similar to the one being used in NH, where 1G service is now available to homes.
 
TDS’ 10G network is the “backbone network” that connects TDS markets to each other, to data centers, and to the Internet.  The infrastructure is being installed in order to facilitate fiber to the home down the road, as well as to increase current connectivity to the 350 customers being served by the PCO. If you are paying for 15 Mbgs, you should start receiving it and not the lower speeds reported in the recent Speed Test Survey. While it is hoped that those customers on the “spur lines,” (Twenty Mile Stream, Chubb Hill, Center Road etc.), will see improved service, as the bandwidth bottleneck in the PCO will be significantly improve, this is not guaranteed.
 
Installation of the  E7 system should be completed in the next 30 days.  However, it is unclear when fiber to the home, built over the copper system would be available to the Cavendish TDS customer. According to TDS, the 10G ring approach is an excellent one- not a “Band-Aid” but rather an investment in new equipment, which ultimately will not only improve connectivity but also set the stage for much faster speeds.
 
3. SOLAR POWER PROJECT PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING 
On Monday, November 16, the Ludlow Select Board will hold a public information meeting at 7:00 pm in the Town Hall Auditorium, located at 37 Depot Street in Ludlow, VT to hear a presentation by Ranger Solar LLC regarding the proposed “Coolidge Solar Project.”
 
The proposed Coolidge Solar Project will be up to a 20 MW of solar generation consisting of up to 95,000 solar photovoltaic panels installed in linear arrays on both sides of Barker Road on lands referred to as the “Barker Farm” near the intersection with Nelson Road and Quent Phelan Road. The lines needed to connect the solar project to the VELCO station cross Cavendish land, which automatically gives the town “party” status.
 
The community is encouraged to attend to further their understanding of the proposed project and discuss its ramifications for our region.
 
Representatives from Ranger Solar as well as the Vermont League of Cities & Towns will be available to hear public comment and respond to questions. CooIt is anticipated that formal application by Ranger Solar LLC will be made to the Vermont Public Service Board later in November.
 
Additional information provided by Ranger Solar, the Vermont League of Cities & Towns and others is available at the Town of Ludlow Administrative office.
 
4. 2ND ANNUAL ABUNDANCE SWAP A MONTH AWAY
Even with the change back to standard time, the 60-degree days of the past week aren’t exactly the reminder that Thanksgiving is less than three weeks away and that the Abundance Swap is a month from today’s post.
 
There were lots of wonderful presents that people picked up for friends, families and even themselves at last year’s Abundance Swap so we’re expecting even more amazing things this year. The rules are simple:
• Pick 3-5 items in your home, shop or office that someone would enjoy as a gift. These should be in really good shape and of quality, meaning it’s well made and likely to be valued by someone. Children are encouraged to bring gently used toys they may have outgrown or no longer use.
• Bring them to the Cavendish Town Elementary School on Saturday morning, December 5, starting at 9:30 am.
• Drop off your items, enjoy a visit with your neighbors and the Cavendish Connects team, as well as share the stories of what you are bringing to the swap.
• From 10-11:30, select presents for someone on your holiday giving list (it can be you). 
 
Need some help in sorting out what to bring to the swap? Check out the post we did on the KonMari Method for tidying.

Cavendish Gulf Rd Continues to be Closed: The Cavendish Gulf Rd has been closed since Sept. 15 as a result of culvert repair on the Chester side. While the projected date of completion was advertised to be Oct. 15, the road remains closed.  Calls to the Chester Town Office indicate that it could be “several more weeks” before the road reopens.

VTel’s Broadband Project Complete But Not Fully Operational: A statewide wireless broadband system paid for, in part, by the federal government is complete, according to the agency that funded the project, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service.  But state officials say many Vermonters are still waiting for service. “They’ve met the intent of the application. They’ve provided service to 97 percent of the territory that they identified in the application. They’ve completed 132 towers even though the application said they were only going to do 119." Jim Porter, director of the Division of Telecom and Connectivity with the Public Service Department says he hasn’t received information from VTel on how many are being served currently, but based on calls he’s getting, many people the project is supposed to reach are waiting.

3. THE CAVENDISH WITCH
In September, a hand drawn map of Cavendish from the 1870’s was found that identified the area directly behind the Cavendish Village Cemetery (Stoneway) as the “Witch’s Bowl.”  There is a very large boulder in that area, that could be thought to look a bit like a witch’s cauldron, but no other information was provided. The map, along with the fact that the earliest settlers of Cavendish were “squatters,” led to the writing of The Cavendish Witch, which can be read on-line at the Cavendish Historical Society’s blog. Happy Halloween!

1. PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF THE SPEED TEST SURVEY 
The Cavendish Speed Test Survey ended Monday night. Of the 56 respondents 30 (54%) were TDS subscribers, 10 (18%) Comcast, 9 (16%) VTel and 7 (12%) listed “other.”
 
With the exception of Comcast, Internet service speeds are below Vermont’s Broadband standard of 4/1 Mbgs and the FCC’s January 1, 2015 standard of 25/3 Mbgs.
• TDS 2.96/0.44
• VTel 2.80/1.23
• Other 1.36/0.47
• Comcast 20.16/6.12
 
When combining all speed tests, regardless of provider, the town’s median average speed was 3.4/0.47 Mbgs. However, given that Comcast’s median speed far exceeded any other Internet provider, the town’s median speed, excluding Comcast, is closer to 2.56/0.46 Mbgs. There was little difference in speeds between morning and evening.
 
It is important to note that three respondents posted speeds of 0/0. All were located on Tarbell Hill and reflected the lack of service in that area.
 
In terms of impediments to service, 25 respondents (45%) reported Daily problems, while 17 (30%) had Weekly issues. Monthly and Rarely impediments were experienced respectively by seven (12%) respondents apiece. Excluding Comcast, Daily impediments were experienced by 50%; Weekly 28%; Monthly 13% and Rarely 9% of the time. The provider with the fewest amounts of impediments was Comcast, with 3 (30%) selecting Rarely.
 
Seventy percent of respondents with children had problems daily, compared to 28.6% for respondents without children.
 
The final results of the survey will be forwarded to the Vermont Division of Telecommunications and Connectivity as documentation that Cavendish is underserved for Internet and should be eligible for Connectivity funding.

3. GOOD BYE HAUNTED HOUSE HELLO HAUNTED TRAIL 
For many years, children and parents alike were thrilled (and scared) by the Golden Stage Inn’s Haunted House, which began when the Greggs purchased the Inn back at literally “the turn of the century.” The current owners have kept the tradition alive until this year, when the props and other items, some dating back to the “haunted hallway,” are being turned over for the start of a new Cavendish tradition-“What Lies Behind the Green Monster?: A Haunted Walk at Greven Field.”
 
Sponsored by the Cavendish Rec Department & Goodman’s American Pie, the haunted walk at Greven Field will take place from 6-9 pm on Halloween, Oct. 31. The Goodman’s pizza truck- Pizza Helping People- is going to be there. Are you?
 
A special thank you to current Golden Stage Inn owners Julie and Michael, and to the originators of the “haunted inn,” Sandy and Peter Gregg, for many years of wonderful Halloween memories.
 
A second new tradition is being started this Halloween with the “Trunk or Treating” at the Cavendish Elementary School parking lot from 5-7 pm. Adults can bring their car, decorate the trunk with a theme and hand out candy for the Trick-or-Treaters!  Come in costume, collect candy and vote for the best decorated trunk.
