Berlin is home to one of the world’s top personal train-ers – something that several women who regularly visit her gym are already aware of. Lori-Ann Marchese was re-cently named a “World’s Top Trainer” by the Huffington Post. Marchese stars in Bra-vo’s Game of Crowns and is the holder of numerous titles that include Miss Bikini New England, Miss Model Fitness America New York, and Miss Summer Nationals.

Marchese lives in Berlin and runs a training program exclusively for women at Body Construct in New Brit-ain. “I actually have a lot of women from the town that come to Body Construct,” Marchese told The Citizen.

It was Marchese’s expe-riences when she was just starting out that led her to want to run a program aimed at women. “I was about 19 or 20 years old or so and I was always into doing fitness

competitions, but I wasn’t feeling good about my body,” Marchese said.

So she hired a trainer to get into shape and won Miss Bikini New England. “When I was training with men … I wasn’t getting the results I wanted. A lot of the male trainers wouldn’t give me any fruit in my diet or carbs in my diet … I really wanted to win and do well, but one time I almost went to the hospital, I was having eye-twitching because I was so malnour-ished,” Marchese said.

Attending dental hygiene school, as part of the cur-riculum, Marchese learned about nutrition. “I learned a lot from that program … We had to make nutrition plans for patients,” she said.

Marchese said that among things she learned is that women’s bodies have differ-ent nutritional needs than men’s. “You don’t need to re-move fruit or carbs from your diet. It’s very important that you have that nutrition.”

As Marchese started to win big competitions, she began training a few clients. Soon, word spread and “A lot of people were interested in training with me,” Marchese said. She ran boot camps out of her home, outside, and at rented spaces. Then, about two years ago, she moved to

Former state senator and Department of Administra-tive Services Commissioner Donald DeFronzo retired this week, according to a state-ment released by Gov. Dan-nel Malloy.

DeFronzo served four terms as a Democrat in the state senate represent-ing New Britain, Berlin and Farmington, and was suc-ceeded by current state sena-tor Terry Gerratana, who ran during a special election held after DeFronzo resigned to take the position as the DAS Commissioner in 2011.

DeFronzo’s legacy as a leg-islator remains in one of the prominent laws he enacted near the end of his final term in office.

In May of 2010, The Citi-zen reported that DeFronzo supported changes to fines levied on drivers found using cell phones. The bill passed, successfully increasing fines to attempt to curb distracted driving.

“Distracted driving is a major cause of accidents in Connecti-c u t a n d across the country,” De-Fronzo said at the time.

DeFronzo was announced as Malloy’s pick for DAS Commissioner before the governor officially took office after being elected by voters.

“Don DeFronzo is well-re-spected on both sides of the aisle, he’s enormously tal-ented, and importantly, he has the right temperament to take the helm at DAS. Don will ex-amine the challenges of how government services are de-livered throughout the Exec-utive Branch and I’m looking to him to take a leadership role in designing a more effi-cient system,” Malloy said in a statement on Dec. 22, 2010.

“There’s no doubt that we’ll face a great number of chal-

Changes are coming to Timberlin Golf Course af-ter recent Town Council decisions to revise some of the venue’s policies as well as to look into upgrades to the driving range.

The return of ‘Library Land’ at Berlin-Peck

The children’s section of the Berlin-Peck Memorial Li-brary was transformed into a life-size board game Dec. 29 for “Library Land.”

“So far, it’s fabulous. Maybe 100 people signed up. The kids are having a great time and we’re having a great time,” said Head of Children and Teen services Jennifer Needham.

“This is actually the second time that we’ve done” Library Land, explained Children’s Librarian Emily Gontarz. A department collaboration came up with the idea, and Gontarz put together home-made props for the event. “Since we had all the props ready to go we figured, why not do it again? It was such a success the first time.”

UpBeat volunteers MacK-enzie O’Connor and Heather Mader were waiting eagerly for their first group at the start of the event. The pair said that librarians explained the rules of the game to them: Children advance along col-ored squares laid out through the library by drawing a small square out of a paper bag and walking to the matching color. As they travel across the board, participants visit 11 stations where they are asked age-appropriate ques-tions and are awarded a sticker upon guessing the right answer.

“They are learning along the way as well as having

fun,” Gontarz said.For younger children the

questions may be as simple as asking a favorite color, and for older children, they may be asked how to find a spe-cific library book. The goal is to make every child a winner, so hints are offered when the question is too difficult. The prize for successfully making one’s way through the game is a new book children are al-lowed to keep, donated by the Friends of the Library.

“I think it’s good for the kids, especially the younger ones, it’s a nice thing for them to do with their family,” said UpBeat volunteer Kevin Russel.

Danielle Akers brought her 5-year-old and 3-year-old daughters to Library Land. “I think it’s great,” the mother said.

Berlin-Peck Memorial Li-brary recently acquired several books for memo-ry-impaired adults. They are interactive and include color photos as well as interesting quotations that correspond with different themes. One of the purposes of these books is to recreate the oral tradi-tion of storytelling. This in turn lets people reflect, imag-ine and find more meaning in common experiences.

The titles in this series can be read by anyone but are meant to be shared by a care-giver, family member, loved one or volunteer. By reading these books one can com-municate more effectively and provide the feeling of well-being associated with sharing stories together. It is worth reading the introduc-tion as well as the interaction

guidelines.The titles can all be found

in the Online Public Access Catalog, or OPAC, under “memory-impaired adults” as well as “Alzheimer’s,” “de-mentia” or “literacy” sub-ject headings. The publisher of these books is Shadow-box Press in Richfield, Ohio, www.shadowboxpress.com. The web site is easy to use

and welcomes feedback. It also gives links to “memory loss resources” which are websites that are more spe-cific to the reader’s individ-ual needs.

Following are the titles of the books for memory-im-paired adults added recently to the library’s Literacy col-

Happy New Year from all of us at the Berlin-Peck Memorial Library! And we start the year with some happy news for you. Based on your requests, we are putting a new DVD pol-icy into effect. Beginning Monday, Jan. 12, all of our DVDs and Blu-Ray discs, including newly-released titles, will be reservable.

And would you like some more good news? We are eliminating the seven-limit rule on DVD checkouts. All other guidelines remain; one-week loan period and not renewable if someone else has placed a hold (re-serve) on it.

As you may know, new materials, whether they

be books, audiobooks or DVDs, get checked out quickly. The staff and I urge you, if you don’t see what you want on the shelf, don’t say “Oh, I’ll check next time when I’m in…” Please place a hold on it. Our new circulation system helps us leverage the power of our 30-mem-ber library consortium to bring you your request more quickly than ever before. Instead of waiting for our one or two copies to be returned, we have access to the collections of those 30 libraries, and chances are that you’ll re-ceive your request in un-der a week. But you need to place that hold. You can do it yourself online, or

The P ubl ic Works Department reminds residents of the local ordi-nances that apply to the re-moval of ice and snow from public roadways. Property owners are not allowed to shovel, throw or plow ice and snow from private property into, or across a public street. These ac-tions are strictly prohibited and subject to a written warning and/or $100 fine as noted in the Town of Berlin Municipal Code.

Residents are responsi-ble to clear snow and ice from any public sidewalk fronting along their prop-erty. All sidewalks are to be cleared and/or sanded within 24 hours of the completion of street plow-ing operations. It is the responsibility of the prop-erty owner fronting that sidewalk to make it safe for public travel. Failure

to comply will subject the abutting property owner to a written warning and/or $100 fine as noted in the Town of Berlin Municipal Code.

No Parking Bans become effective automatically (or at the discretion of the Di-rector of Public Works) whenever there is an accu-mulation of four (4) inches or more of snow and ice on any of the streets of the town. No Parking Bans will terminate no sooner than eight (8) hours after any snowstorm, or as directed by the Director of Public Works.

Any vehicle left parked on the street after such No Parking Ban has taken ef-fect, will be towed and sub-ject to a fine and all towing and storage charges.

For more information, call the Public Works De-partment at (860) 828-7022.

Berlin Legion to help host symposium

The American Legion base-ball programs in Meriden, Berlin and Wallingford have teamed up with South Mer-iden Youth Baseball League and the Cheshire High pro-gram to hold a symposium for young baseball players, their families and their coaches to become better acclimated with college ball and its re-cruiting procedures.

The 2 ½-hour event, slated for Sunday, Jan. 11 at the Platt High School beginning at 2 p.m., will feature four coaches from state colleges discussing facets of the game as it pertains to them and the student-athletes they recruit.

The speakers will be UConn coach Jim Penders, Fairfield University coach Bill Currier, University of Hart-ford coach Justin Blood and Quinnipiac University assis-

tant coach Patrick Egan.Penders will discuss the

Huskies’ recruiting philoso-phy as it pertains to Division I baseball. Currier’s topic is hitting, Egan’s is pitching and Blood will talk about the relationship between coaches and players at the college level and how com-munication helps maximize performance.

The cost of the event is $20. Advance purchase is recom-mended. Some tickets will be available at the door if seats remain. After speaker fees, proceeds will be meted out to the organizations in pro-portion to how many tickets each sells.

Tickets can be purchased through: Meriden Post 45 coach Doug Wedge (203) 715-0582; the Wallingford Post 187 junior division’s assistant gen-eral manager John Christofor (203) 314-5523; Berlin Post 68 coach/general manager Rob Manzo (860) 986-9544; SMYL president Bryan McCarty (203) 907-8686; SMYL Babe Ruth Division vice president Willie Thiel (203) 434-0244; Cheshire High baseball coach

Bill Mrowka (203) 530-8988.Wedge and Meriden’s Ed-

ward DePersio, formerly a professional scout with the Braves and Pirates, said the event serves multiple purposes.

One is to bolster the sag-ging interest in Legion base-ball brought about by the advent of costly AAU pro-grams. They feel it isn’t nec-essary to spend thousands of dollars to train and show-case young players to college coaches.

“I want to help the kids un-derstand what they have to do to become college play-ers,” said DePersio, who has served effectively as a liai-son between college-bound players and regional college coaches for many years. “A lot of players don’t realize what they have to accomplish in order to be seen.”

Wedge said most parents don’t fully understand the re-cruiting process, and strongly reiterated that an investment of thousands for private in-struction is not necessary. He offered several examples of players who have come

back to him to play Legion ball and landed at appropriate colleges after trying the AAU route without satisfaction.

“We want to give players and their parents a realistic idea about what coaches are looking for when they re-cruit,” said Wedge, who has been coaching Post 45 since 2008. “We’ll look at it through the coaches’ eyes. It’s not just how you perform on the field but how you perform academically and how you conduct yourself as a young man.”

DiPersio explained why college coaches are more apt to scout at the Legion’s Junior Division games.

“The Senior Division has some kids who are already in college and others who have already committed,” said DiPersio, who is now a member of Post 45’s baseball committee. “Kids in the Ju-nior Division are all going to be sophomores or juniors in high school and coaches will be able to recruit every player on every roster.”

Wedge called the confer-ence a “template to fit the

needs” of the potential re-cruits and their families at a fraction of the cost demanded by AAU programs.

“It’s a business for them. We do it out of the love of the game,” he said. “These guys make their livings by charging from $1,500 to $4,000 plus travel expenses. Parents get caught up in it, thinking they’ll get better instruction and a leg up on playing college or pro ball, but it just isn’t true.”

He said the showcases that many of these organi-zations attend are in places like Maryland and Georgia, and college coaches from the Northeast often don’t get the chance to see their kids.

“Coaches in Maryland are likely to pick the kids in their own backyard unless your kid goes down there and hits like Mickey Mantle,” Wedge said. “I’m not telling you I’m the next coming of Bily Martin, but I’ll work 12 months a year to help get your kid in front of baseball people and help get him in college. From there, it’s up to your son.”

Recruiting process among the issues to be discussed

Camp Kesem, a national organization that provides a life-long peer support network to help children, ages 6 to 16, through and beyond their parent’s can-cer, is pleased to kick off its second annual season of camp in Connecticut.

This coming summer, Camp Kesem at Yale will host 80 campers from Aug. 18-23 at Camp Laurelwood

in Madison.With 1.7 million cancer

cases a year in the United States, there are more than 3 million children im-pacted by a parent’s cancer, and Camp Kesem recog-nizes and embraces this of-ten-overlooked population.

her current location in New Britain.

“It’s all women, and very motivating. They support each other and they cheer for each other,” Marchese said.

Marchese offered a few tips for women who are looking at getting into shape in 2015. With the holidays, many will have been overeating or hav-ing too many sugary foods. “We all do it,” Marchese said, but when the new year comes it’s important to get back on track.

Marchese said she prefers not to use the word “diet.” “I just call it clean eating,” she said. She places a lot of em-phasis on fresh foods, and advises avoiding processed foods, and foods found in cans and bottles. A diet of fresh food requires more preparation than microwave meals, so Marchese suggests cooking foods to eat through-out the week on weekends. “That’s the only way of doing it,” she said. As part of a plan to eat five or six small meals throughout the day, a good lunch is about a fist-sized

portion each of chicken, rice, and green beans.

Marchese also advises that women, especially wives and mothers, take some time to care for themselves. Women often put others first, Marchese said, but working out hard can give great ben-efits if one dedicates three hours per week.

“It doesn’t sound like much, but when you are at our gym you train hard and you will see a lot of changes,” Marchese said.

Four years later, Malloy praised DeFronzo’s work be-fore his retirement, which was to be effective Jan. 7. Mal-loy said the DAS helped save taxpayers more than $50 mil-lion with staff consolidation, use of technology, more ag-gressive bidding procedures,

and other measures.“Don and his management

team have carried out our mission to streamline state services with professionalism and dedication,” Malloy said in a Dec. 11 statement.

“Under his leadership, DAS has identified millions in sav-ings and made state govern-ment run more efficiently so that it can better serve the public. I want to thank Don for his commitment to mak-ing government work bet-ter for our citizens, and also commend him on a remark-able career of public service,” the governor said.

“I am grateful to Gov. Mal-loy for the opportunity to serve in his administration. We have accomplished a great deal at DAS over the

last four years, including im-plementing effective man-agement practices, achieving significant process improve-

ments and developing inno-vative strategies that have helped save the taxpayers of Connecticut $68 million,” De-

Fronzo said. “In the last four years, DAS has transacted

previous proposal for a new driving range that was re-jected at referendum. Town officials have been pressing for an update for some time, saying that improvements would bring in more reve-nue. The council approved $64,000 to hire The Saratoga Group for the driving range project last year.

Timberlin Director of Golf Jon Zuk said at the meeting that the improvements are estimated to increase reve-nue by 10 to 15 percent. The current driving ranges bring in $16,000 to $18,000 per year,

but the driving range, accord-ing to Zuk, has serious over-crowding issues when the high school teams or golf leagues come to practice.

Councilor David Evans (R) voted against the project, ex-plaining that he felt it should wait to be addressed in next year’s budget and that he op-posed drawing $30,000 from the contingency fund for the project. Officials in favor said that construction costs would increase the more the project was delayed. The measure passed 4-3.

The council heard a re-vised policy for season passes at the golf course in Decem-

ber. The season pass refund policy gained attention from the council after it was asked to approve partial season pass refunds for individuals who were unable to use their season pass due to injury. The council requested that Timberlin create an official policy for refunds and partial refunds.

The new policy specifies that refunds are awarded to those who suffer from med-ical conditions in the form of a discount to the season pass for the following year. No medical refunds are available after Aug. 1. The measure passed unanimously.
