Fred Butler of the horseshoe club aided planning while the club, over three years, built pits, brought in clay and improved the area. Lights may come later and water access is part of the park development. Players must currently bring their own horseshoes.

Harwood teacher shares China tour insights with SVEA
Harwood Union High School teacher Jonathan Weil describes a three week, 21 person U S educators tour of China in August. Sponsored by the NEA US China relations committee and the Foreign Policy Association. Weil notes limits on questions and photos and contrasts China’s education aims with U S schooling. He observes salaries and living arrangements, poverty elimination, and compulsory work for students. Weil says China seeks US technical knowledge in television and communications while archaeology and anthropology remain strong. He is helping draft China curriculum for Vermont schools.
