SUMMARY:STOP the BLEED First Aid Class
DESCRIPTION:Today we live in a world where terrorism\, the actions of unstable people\, and the dangerous impulses of friends and relatives are very real and becoming increasingly more frequent. \nMassive bleeding from any cause\, but particularly from an active shooter or explosive event where a response is delayed can result in death. Similar to how the general public learns and performs CPR\, the public must learn proper bleeding control techniques\, including how to use their hands\, dressings\, and tourniquets. Victims can quickly die from uncontrolled bleeding\, within five to 10 minutes. \nHowever\, anyone at the scene can act as immediate responder and save lives if they know what to do. \nThe Wilton Volunteer Ambulance Corps is offering this FREE training to teens in cooperation with Our Lady of Fatima’s Youth Group. \nWHEN:  Tuesday\, Oct. 30\, 2018 from 7-8 p.m. (EDT) \nWHERE: Our Lady of Fatima Parish Center (229 Danbury Rd.) \nFAQs: \nAre there registration requirements? \nYes. It is important that each student be given adequate time and instruction with an instructor. We need to know in advance as to how many participants to expect\, to ensure we have enough supplies and instructors on hand\, thereby making advanced registration required. \nParticpants will be required to fill out a waiver that they should complete and bring to the event. This waiver will be sent to you via email after registering. \nAre there any age restrictions for attending this class? \nDue to the nature of the content of this paticular class\, the participants should be at least 13 years of age. The target audience for this particular class is teeens between 13 and 18 years old. \nIs there a cost associated with this event? \nNo. This training is offered free of charge as a service to the community by the Wilton Volunteer Ambulance Corps.

SUMMARY:Stop The Bleed–Presented by Wilton Volunteer Ambulance Corps (WVAC) and Our Lady of Fatima (OLF)
DESCRIPTION:Today we live in a world where terrorism\, the actions of unstable people\, and the dangerous impulses of friends and relatives are very real and becoming increasingly more frequent. \nMassive bleeding from any cause\, but particularly from an active shooter or explosive event where a response is delayed can result in death. Similar to how the general public learns and performs CPR\, the public must learn proper bleeding control techniques\, including how to use their hands\, dressings\, and tourniquets. Victims can quickly die from uncontrolled bleeding\, within five to 10 minutes. \nHowever\, anyone at the scene can act as immediate responder and save lives if they know what to do. \nThe Wilton Volunteer Ambulance Corps is offering this FREE training to teens in cooperation with Our Lady of Fatima’s Youth Group. \nFAQs: \nAre there registration requirements? \nYes. It is important that each student be given adequate time and instruction with an instructor. We need to know in advance as to how many participants to expect\, to ensure we have enough supplies and instructors on hand\, thereby making advanced registration required. \nParticpants will be required to fill out a waiver that they should complete and bring to the event. This waiver will be sent to you via email after registering. Registration can be completed online. \nAre there any age restrictions for attending this class? \nDue to the nature of the content of this paticular class\, the participants should be at least 13 years of age. The target audience for this particular class is teens between 13-18 years old. \nIs there a cost associated with this event? \nNo. This training is offered free of charge as a service to the community by the Wilton Volunteer Ambulance Corps. That being said\, WVAC is 100% a volunteer\, non-for-profit 501(c)3 organization–and not a department within the Town of Wilton–which relies heavily on donations from the community.

SUMMARY:Garden Dialogues 2019: Wilton\, CT
DESCRIPTION:In 2019 the Cultural Landscape Foundation’s (TCLF) Garden Dialogues program\, which provides exclusive access to exceptional landscapes\, will go coast to coast\, from elegant estates in Greenwich\, Connecticut\, and waterfront retreats in Maine\, to one of the oldest zinfandel vineyards in California and other sites in Florida\, Maryland\, Massachusetts\, New York\, Virginia\, Washington State\, Washington\, D.C.\, and elsewhere. These projects have been designed by some of today’s most talented and visionary landscape architects. \nCider Ridge Farm is located on the outskirts of Wilton. The farm encompasses 16 acres of preserved meadows and a historic working orchard. An 18th-century agricultural lane with fieldstone walls runs along the ridgeline of the property\, creating a purposeful divide between the site for a new homestead and the existing agrarian landscape. Two phases of work defined this project. The first\, a new home for a young and growing family on the south side of the property; the second\, the comprehensive restoration of the original 19th-century homestead on the northeast corner of the site. \nThe landscape architecture firm\, STIMSON\, worked closely with the owners to create a multi-generational homestead that expressed the contemporary needs of the modern family\, while preserving the integrity of the historic farm. Principals Stephen Stimson\, FASLA and Lauren Stimson\, ASLA will lead the design discussion and share how the juxtaposition of old and new\, rustic and modern\, became a guiding language for the materials\, planting palette and overall landscape expression of the project. \nOld Farm\nThe historic farmhouse dates back to the mid 1700s\, with connections to the Revolutionary War and stories of British troops staying overnight. Over the last century\, the farm raised horses and historically\, race horses. The careful siting of the birthing stalls on the New York side of the property meant the horses could be part of the New York racing circuit. The historic farm lane remains the landmark that organizes the site\, dividing the farm between Connecticut and New York. The stonewalls that define the lane were carefully restored and new openings were created at key moments to provide views and connections between the two homes. A new court\, a reclaimed bluestone terrace and a working garden of raised beds were integrated into the historic home. A series of walls around the old farmhouse were rebuilt using site fieldstone\, and define the original formal tea lawn. \n \nNew Farm\nThe new farm landscape was conceived as a series of outdoor rooms adjacent to the house\, with a working kitchen garden and perennial garden stepping up to the historic lane. The garden is a collection that reinterpret the site’s meadows\, selected for seasonal display of color and texture. Above the gardens\, a new pool\, pavilion and play garden converge at the historic lane\, carefully inserted between fragments of the historic farm walls. The use of rusted steel\, granite and reclaimed stone respond to the site’s heritage\, yet also express the Owners’ affinity for modern art and architecture. These materials also carry forward the property’s legacy\, in the hands of the farmer\, they shaped this landscape for well over a century. \n \nManagement\nMaintaining a legacy property like Cider Ridge Farm requires a great deal of planning\, effort and expertise. Burt Demarche\, President of The LaurelRock Company who constructed the project with STIMSON\, will join the dialogue to discuss landscape strategies\, curation and long-term management at the Farm. \nAttendees will enjoy a take-home harvest basket from Cider Ridge Farm’s bountiful kitchen garden. \n  \n  \n
