CUMBERLAND — A summer-long project to replace the natural grass football field at Tucker Field with state-of-the-art synthetic turf is nearly complete, but whether or not it will be ready in time for the first home game of the season on Oct. 4 is still up in the air.
School officials have been told by the general contractor that the field will be ready in time for the Clippers' first home game against St. Raphael on Friday, Oct. 4, but whether or not the field can actually be used that day depends on the weather over the next week and if crews are able to finish resurfacing the track that surrounds the field.
"The field is supposed to be done by Sunday and we're all hoping it will be ready for Oct. 4, but that's contingent on the weather and other work that needs to be done," Athletic Director Frank Geiselman said Wednesday.
At the very latest, the field would be ready for play by Friday, Oct. 18, he said.
Because the field project is ongoing, the Clippers had to play what was supposed to be their first home game on Sept. 15 against Cranston West at Bryant College. Now, Cumberland's first home game of the season will either be Friday, Oct. 4 – if the field complex is ready – or Friday, Oct. 18.
"It looks beautiful," said Cumberland head coach Chris Surka. "We've been told that the new field is almost finished, and we're keeping our fingers crossed it will be ready in time for our first home game against St. Raphael."
Cumberland High School Principal Alan J. Tenreiro said regardless of when the home game is actually played, plans are being made for the school's pep rally to be held at the field on Oct. 25, when the Clippers play Pilgrim High School.
"The kids will be doing something really special," he said.
When fans arrive at Tucker Field on either Oct. 4 or Oct. 18, things will look a lot different.
R.A.D. Sports, the general contractor, has spent the past six months overseeing the Tucker Field Athletic Complex renovation project, which also includes upgrading the football field and softball field lighting systems; redesigning and resurfacing the main parking lot; and resurfacing the infield of the baseball field and the running track around the football field.
Texas-based subcontractor Symmetry Turf installed the synthetic, maintenance-free artificial turf.
The project was designed by Birchwood Design Group, a Providence-based landscape architecture planning and design firm that designed new fields for the Woonsocket middle schools and Franklin High School.
The project is being funded with a $300,000 state Department of Environmental Management (DEM) matching grant. The town match of $206,338 is budgeted in the general fund, and the balance is coming from the recreation fund.
The town has been making steady improvements to the 126.5-acre Tucker Field Athletic Complex over the past few years. The complex is located on Mendon Road, across the street from Cumberland High School.
Two years ago, the council authorized the mayor to enter into a contract with Cumberland-based J.H. Lynch & Sons for construction services as part of the second phase of the renovation project at Tucker Field Athletic Complex.
The project's second phase was to create a larger multipurpose athletic field at the 2675 Mendon Road complex; redesign and renovation of four existing tennis courts and the addition of a fifth; reconstruction of an existing track and field weight throwing area; two new basketball courts; and ADA-compliant parking and roadway
Meanwhile, the Cumberland Parks and Recreation Department is giving people an opportunity to purchase an engraved brick for a planned Walk of Memories to be installed at the complex in the spring. The bricks are available for anyone who wants to commemorate a special memory in Cumberland, a celebration at Tucker Field, or a great achievement at Cumberland High School.
The brick walkway will be similar to the walkway of dedicated bricks inside Boston's Fenway Park, and town officials are hoping the Tucker Field Walk of Memories will be something the community will enjoy for generations to come.
Bricks must be ordered by Jan. 31 to be included in the initial phase of the Walk of Memories, which will begin in the spring.
The bricks are $100, $175 and $250, depending on size.
An engraved brick order form can be found at the town's website at www.cumberlandri.org.
All proceeds from the sale of bricks will benefit the Tucker Field renovation project.

The Manti-LaSal National Forest, Arapeen OHV Trail System has some of the best off highway vehicle trails in the Western United States. The Arapeen Trail System provides very scenic high mountain desert riding opportunities. The system has riding opportunities that are directed towards riders of all skill levels.
In 2001, members from various clubs, both locally and statewide recognized the need to bring all of the resources together from the various organization to assist the USFS in managing responsible OHV use. Resulting from this concept was the birth of the Arapeen Trail Council. The Arapeen Trail Council (ATC) is composed of 8-10 members. The council members are representatives from the Castle County OHV Association, the Southeastern Utah OHV Association, the Utah Trail Machine Association and the Sage Riders Motorcycle Club. The members respectfully represent each of the aforementioned clubs and organizations in management issues on the Manti Forest and San Rafael desert with the council. In essence the ATC represents hundreds of users from four different organizations.
The purpose of this committee is to provide an organization to assist the Manti National Forest Service in managing, maintaining and patrolling the off highway routes on the USFS. The council has monthly meetings wherein the Manti Forest recreation staff and supervisor attend. At these meetings, management issues, concerns, educational needs and volunteer projects are coordinated between the USFS staff and the club representatives.
The goal of the ATC is to assist public land managers in providing acceptable off highway recreational opportunities while protecting the resource and environment. Over the last six years the ATC has created a very positive partnership with the Forest Service and has been successful in achieving our goal.
One major project that was undertaken by the ATC was the creation of the Arapeen Trail System. A core and founding principle of the ATC is that motorized impacts on public lands are minimized by a universal marking system, education and maintenance. This system is the second largest ATV system in Utah (second to the Piute ATV system). The Arapeen Trail System is entirely on the Manti National Forest.
The Arapeen Trail system requires a large amount of volunteer effort to preserve the environment and the integrity of the system. Because of staff shortages, the USFS relies very heavily upon the associated clubs with the ATC to provide the necessary maintenance. The ATC and represented clubs provided an average of 1,550 hours of volunteer service for 2006 on the Manti Forest and the Arapeen Trail System. The ATC and associated clubs by far are the most active in terms of volunteering in the State of Utah and possibly the nation. The ATC has been instrumental in protecting access to hundreds of miles of off highway trails on the Manti-LaSal Forest.
In April of 2007, the Arapeen Trail Council in conjunction with the Castle County OHV Association applied for a grant from Polaris. On June 18, 2007, Polaris announced that the Arapeen Trail Council/Castle Country OHV Association had been awarded a granted in the amount of $8,500.
This grant will be used to protect and preserve current trail systems on the Manti National Forest and the San Rafael Swell. Several projects have been identified in conjunction with the associated public land managers that this grant will help fund.
This grant was awarded through the Polaris TRAILS program. The T.R.A.I.L.S. program makes funds available to not-for-profit national, state and local organizations in the United States to ensure the future of ATV riding.
T.R.A.I.L.S. stands for:
T = Trail Development
R = Responsible Riding
A = Access
I = Initiatives
L = Lobbying
S = Safety
The grant program encompasses two main objectives - promoting safe and responsible riding, and preserving access. Funds can be used by organizations for trail development and maintenance projects, safety and education initiatives, lobbying and other projects to increase and maintain land access.
This is the third round of 'T.R.A.I.L.S.' grant recipients, with grants totaling $105,320 for a grand total of $500,458 granted to national, state and local ATV clubs since the program was launched in 2006. In this round, Polaris issued grants to 12 organizations in 12 states. To date, Polaris has assisted 59 ATV organizations in 35 states across the U.S.
The first of its kind in the ATV industry, the 'T.R.A.I.L.S.' grant program was launched in January 2006 for ATV clubs, associations and grassroots groups. ATV riders and the trails they use are the lifeblood of the sport and Polaris aimed to create a program to help.
The grants ranged from $3,000 to the maximum $10,000 and will be applied toward: land acquisition, trail mapping, marking and maintenance; trail development, stabilization and reforestation; bridge building; Bureau of Land Management (BLM), National Forest Service and State Forest ride area enhancements and trail mapping projects.
The third round of T.R.A.I.L.S. grant recipients include the following.
Local Organizations
Island Trails Network (Alaska)
Little Sioux Explorers OHV Club (Iowa)
North Idaho ATV Association
Border Riders Sportsman Club (Maine)
Fourtown-Grygla Sportsmans Club (Minnesota)
Washington County Board of Supervisors (Mississippi)
Down East River Club (North Carolina)
Lewis County Trails Department (New York)
Motorcycle Riders Association (Oregon)
Arapeen Trail Council / Castle Country OHV (Utah)
State Organizations
Missouri Dirt Riders
Motorized Recreation Council of Wyoming
The Arapeen Trail Council says it is encouraged by the commitment that Polaris had made to the Arapeen Trail System and the San Rafael Swell.
"This grants shows that Polaris takes seriously the preservation of OHV recreation while protecting the resource," said a release by the group.
The Arapeen Trail Council invites OHV users that have an interest in preserving OHV recreation to get involved with a club that is represented with the council.

Its harder for the casual fan like me to find information on high school players that is updated enough to draw any conclusions. We have a few pitchers in Lucas Giolito, Max Fried, Lucas Sims and Walker Weickel whose upsides might be greater than the college pitchers who thus far have not been dominating like you would like to see. For position player at the college level you only have a couple of guys performing like you'd want in Mike Zunino and Richie Shaffer. HS guys like Carlos Correa, Byron Buxton and Albert Almora might have better overall upside too.
But have any of these high school players, other than Buxton, played themselves into top 5 consideration, knocking out a better known names, particularly someone like Mark Appel? Who has the scoop and wants to share some info?

Customer Product Reviews
Customer Rating:
Great Item. My husband owns a deli and we have a van with no back seats in order to deliver and pick up food and we put this rubber flooring down. It is easy to clean just needed a little cutting to do the entire car and looks great. Best money spent on the car for this roll. It works great.

I finished my basement project using your rolled rubber flooring earlier this year and wanted to share some pictures of it. I used the 3/8" Black Rolled Rubber with 10% Red Brick Flec. This project consisted of 600 square feet of the 4 foot rolls. The ease of the installation allowed 3 of us to install an entire basement in 1 evening. The precision 4 foot cut rolls created a perfect fit from one roll to the next. The floor is fantastic for a my workout area as well as general. It is easy to clean and does not absorb water spills. I floored my basement, tool room, storage room, closet, and steps. Because my basement floor is not completely flat, after laying a thin dimpled sub floor, the rubber mat easily covered the small gradual changes in elevation.

We employ a somewhat unconventional use of your product. In early 2011 the Montgomery Fencing Club was moving into a new space which asked us to protect the wood floor from stray points which they were concerned might gouge it. Whatever we used also had to be movable as we were moving into a shared, community space. We decided that most standard floor protective systems would not hold up under the stresses of our sport, so we began to explore more heavy-duty products. Complicating our efforts further are the dimensions of our playing surface: A fencing strip is 1-2m wide and 14m long. While there are some products specifically manufactured for our purpose, they are prohibitively expensive for our club. We found your rolled rubber products which offered a continuous 4 ft x 50 ft surface which is nearly perfect for our needs, particularly when combined with your very reasonable price and in-stock availability. We ordered a roll of 3/8 inch black, rubber flooring to test. It did not take us long to order three more. The strips have performed very well, and look good in the process. We used them for a tournament and received compliments from the visiting fencers. One even inquired about them as a possible portable strip for remote demonstrations. At 400 pounds per roll, I did not recommend it for that purpose, but I passed along your company's contact information. However, if someone has easy, level access to on-site storage, they are manageable as temporary flooring and work well for fencing strips. We worked with Paul Manzavrakos for the order. He was very helpful throughout the process, including follow-up questions after the sale. If we find ourselves in a position to expand the club, Greatmats will be the first place I look.
Customer Rating:
It does the job. I get to throw my weights on the mats, lay on them and not feel uncomfortable as I would with concrete below it in my garage gym. It's convenient because it's already pre-sized so you don't have to worry about getting a Quote. I'ld say get a thickness thicker than this one for olympic lifting though. It's good, but would be better with a thicker matting. It was my first time buying matting, so this was just a test run for me. Other than that, it's a great product =)

I bought the 1/4 inch 4 by 10 feet rolls and love the product. They actually came 4 by 10 feet 6 inches. I put in my basement using only a little double sided tape here and there to install. Love it. Thank You.
Hampstead, MD
This is a great product. I bought two 4x10 rolls to use in my home gym area to protect the floor from weights and to provide some better traction for cardio workouts. They immediately rolled flat and are easy to clean and maintain.
Needham, MA
Perfect for protecting hardwood floors from dumbbells in our home workout studio. Good size for one person working out at a time. Would recommend to friends.
Canton, NY
It was a basically as expected. It was easy to cut to size. I use it for P90X in my living room. It's working out great! My sales rep was professional and knowledgeable.
fort worth, TX
I have ordered two of the 4x10 rolled mats and they have worked so well in my home basement exercise room that I have ordered a third roll. They will be a good floor tile protector for my equipment to rest on.
Uniontown, OH
When requested we use the rubber mats to line the beds of our fiberglass utility bodies. These mats hold up very well under some very heavy use. We like them very much.

A great product, very happy with the way it will protect our wood floors with all the gym equipment on them. Great service!!!
Bellingham, WA
product is exactly what I ordered and what I expected so that was great.
South San Francisco, CA
I ordered this product as an underlayment for my home gym in my garage to protect the concrete and the equipment as well. So far, it's proven to be functional and durable. I was a bit worried about how difficult it might be to cut, but with a sharp blade, it was easy to cut it to the dimensions that I needed. It seems to work well for a gym floor as there's no discernible give so it stays solid and stable under your feet for exercises like squats and and deadlifts. Yet it provides adequate cushioning to prevent chipping the concrete or the weights. It's a great product and I'd definitely recommend and buy again.
This mat is great! Arrived on time and has been perfect for my home gym. I lift weights, do aerobics, and plyometrics on it. Works very well, doesn't slip, and seems to be very sturdy.
Largo, FL
i used it in my private gym for a extra layer of protection for the poewerlifters to deadlift and the heavy dumbells users to dump,so far it is working great!
rochester, WA
Good product, great for the shed I have my gym.
palo alto, CA
Just as expected. What can you say about rolled rubber? Heavy. 4x10 foot roll. Shipped by Great Mats and received in an adequate time frame. Good customer service.

Detailed Description:
Sick leave due to low back pain (LBP) is costly and compromises workforce productivity. Sick leave itself, fears and believes regarding return to work, and a low self-esteem have been identified as independent predictors of extended sick leave. Previous data suggested that multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs, including physical activities and psychobehavioral management, should decrease sick leave duration in chronic LBP. However these programs are heavy (at least 4 weeks long), and are often proposed to patients at the end of the management (over 6 months after the beginning of symptoms). Another approach could be to propose a shorter multidisciplinary program (for example 5 days long), earlier in the history of LBP to break the vicious circle as soon as possible. The target population could be people suffering from subacute LBP with sick leave duration between 4 and 24 weeks.

I guess I became aware of the power of the metaphor in my early twenties when I broke away from some cultural patterns that diverted me from what a friend called "the franchised life" — that more or less predictable and predefined path for a...
Education at the Edge of Possibility (Part II)
My most recent professional experiences have brought me back to think about evolving education. In my previous blog I shared a little bit of the journey that has taken me to this moment. By evolving education I mean both integrating learning into life as well as designing new learing systems. Both are necessary. The first is about supporting...
Education at the Edge of Possibility (Part I)
Education has always been close to my heart. It is my joy for learning that has kept me connected to the educational field, even though I had some painful learning experiences in my formal education. As a mother, I see my teen daughter questioning schooling practices that are not relevant, meaningful or enjoyable. When I was a little girl, I knew...
Complexity and Grace
I have been teaching systems thinking as an approach to deal with complexity for many years. Complexity has become a catch word, something that is recognized as a part of modern life, something that should not be ignored or simplified. We have too many examples of reductionist approaches that tried to solve a problem through a technological (quick...
An Ecology of Life: Systems Theory, Relational Knowing and Stories to Reweave the World
This is the title of a seminar I will be offering next week at Saybrook's Residential Conference to launch the spring semester. I'm excited to be offering it in collaboration with my dear friend and colleague Nora Bateson who has produced a profound film about her father — the anthropologist and systems theorist Gregory Bateson....
Systems thinking and courage
In all the books and research papers on systems thinking that I have read, I don't think I have yet found the word courage as part of the language used. There is a lot written about systems thinking in terms of it's relevance and importance, it's theories and methodologies, but nothing about what it takes--emotionally. And I'm...
From social to cultural entrepreneurship
In another blog post I talked about my role as an integrator. My work as a scholar-practitioner has been grounded in evolutionary systems theory, transformative learning, and systemic action-research. My most creative contributions to organizations come from my ability to question and expand perceived boundaries and from connecting seemingly...
Coming back together
These days, I find myself eager for spaces designed for emergence. I think I have graduated from the "pretend to be in control" stage and I'm now getting acquainted to the "be ready to be surprised" stage. My life's philosophy has always been: everything is learning. But now, I have an intense awareness that every...
Science and Spirituality in Organizational Practice
One of the wonderful things about being part of Saybrook's community is the opportunity to connect with and continue to learn from the faculty teaching in the different schools and programs. Ever since I was enrolled as a student in the late 1990s, I have been an admirer of the profound scholarship, intellectual brilliance, and refreshing...
Intentionality, Collaboration, and Presence: Accelerating Systemic Transformation
I had a powerful experience this past week. It was the launch of the Global Leadership Lab, an organization I co-founded even though it was never my plan to do so. The experience has shown me the power of pure intention and deep collaboration in the quest to accelerate systemic transformation. For the past six months, I have been part of a magical...
For me, this year promises to be a year of integration. Recently, a colleague told me that I am a weaver. We were working on the design of a leadership program for social innovators when she said, "And just as I thought that we were done, your brought in another thread and weaved it to make this idea even more complete, more beautiful....
"Bioneering" the New World
Imagine a different world. Imagine a world where we can solve all the problems that plague humanity. Imagine a world where we learn how to live within the limits of our planet and co-exist in harmony with all living creatures. Imagine a world with new organizations and new cultures that honor our individual gifts and soul paths, and celebrate our...

The Rangers returned to North America today and wasted no
time refining their roster.
Defenseman Brendan Bell was assigned to the CT Whale and
goalie Scott Stajcer was sent back to the OHL's Owen Sound Attack.
Bell's demotion could mean that Tim Erixon impressed the
coaching staff enough in the season's first two games to warrant an extended stay
on Broadway.
New York claimed
defenseman Jeff Woywitka off waivers on Thursday and though Woywitka didn't
play against
Los Angeles or Anaheim,
it was assumed that he would take Erixon's spot in the lineup next weekend.
But the Rangers are always conscious of making sure their
young players receive as much ice-time as possible, so it's not likely that
they would have kept Erixon if he was bound to be a healthy scratch. If Erixon stays with the team, it's because
New York intends to continue deploying him as the sixth defenseman.
Coach John Tortorella didn't use Erixon too much during crunch
time of either Friday or Saturday's games, but Erixon took fairly regular
shifts for the most part and didn't make many mistakes.
Now that New York is back in North America it can certainly
send Erixon back to the Whale at any time, but it seems likely that Erixon will
play at least one more game against the New York Islanders on Saturday before
the Blueshirts decide whether to keep him for a longer period or insert
Woywitka into the lineup.
Of course, the blueline situation has been chaotic already
this season as Erixon was originally assigned to the Whale on October 1st
before being recalled on October 5th. So
it's also possible that the Blueshirts may just want Erixon to get more
practice time with the NHL club and also give Woywitka time to settle in before
making a move later in the week.

One of the most biased, "politically correct" but factually false phrases of our day is the phrase we read almost daily in the media - "constitutional separation of church and state." Our courts rule again and again using that phrase.
Will our courts and our media ever face the truth of history that "separation of church and state" is not a creation of the Constitution. It is a creation of the judiciary (i.e. Everson vs. The Board of Education, 1947). Nowhere in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights or in the very detailed Congressional Records of the proceedings and debates developing these documents, can the phase "separation of church and state" be found. That phrase does not exist anywhere in American history until over a decade after the Constitution was written (Jefferson -1801).
The fact is, Thomas Jefferson, who originated the phrase "separation of church and state," was not involved in the writing of either the Constitution or the Bill of Rights! When these documents were being written, Jefferson was serving in Europe as America's Ambassador to France.
Prior to 1947, Jefferson was quoted only one time in a Supreme Court case. Since 1947, he has been quoted (and misrepresented) over 3000 times as the primary authority on the Constitution even though he was not involved in its writing.
I challenge both the media and the judges to have the courage to say it correctly. It isn't "constitutional separation of church and state." It is "judicial separation of church and state."

|In the current Congressional debate over health care legislation, many references are made to 'classic American values' -- terms like liberty, equality, and justice. But how do terms such as solidarity, efficiency and quality fit into the structure of the debate? In this segment, Ira talks with Thomas Murray, head of The Hastings Center, a nonpartisan bioethics research institute, about the values Americans hold dear, and how those values influence out health care policy decisions. What values should we, our health insurers, and our doctors look for in a health care system?

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate sports reporter
You could see the advantage during warm up. The 4A Salem Hills Skyhawks have a much bigger squad than the Dinos, both in number of players and size. But that didn't deter Carbon from coming out fighting hard. The Dinos ended up losing 35-15, but not before giving their fans a game to talk about.
The Skyhawks received the opening kick-off. They headed both up and down the field as they had success and then penalties. The Dino defense also made some key stops and Salem came up empty handed. Carbon struggled on their early offensive drives and by the end of the quarter it was scoreless.
Salem did manage to score three times in the second quarter. They kicked for three, scored a touchdown and ran in the extra point for a pair. The Skyhawks ended the half with another field goal to head to the locker room up by 14.
Carbon's offense came out flat in the third quarter, but their defense only allowed a single touchdown and the game remained in reach.
The Skyhawks scored again early in the fourth, but the Dinos still had a few tricks up their sleeve. The Dinos ran a hook and ladder play in which quarterback Dakota Cisneros passed to Colton England who then handed off to Jordan Blanc who ran it 70 yards for the first Dino score of the night. Dusty Blackham ran the ball in for two and the Dinos had their first eight points on the board.
The Dinos attempted an on-side kick, but Salem Hills took possession. Carbon recovered a Skyhawk fumble and then called a hitch and pass play. Cisneros made a hitch pass to Blanc who then passed to Nick Haycock for a 37 yard TD. Tanner Gagnon kicked the extra point.
A second try at an on-side kick was successful for the Dinos, but they were unable to capitalize. They turned it over late in the game for the final Skyhawk score.
All in all Coach Jeff Blanc was happy with the drive of his team.
"We were down 28-0 and battled back," he said. "We have a few things to correct this week in practice and there were a couple of things that didn't go our way, but overall it was a good effort for our team."
Coach Blanc felt like the defense really stepped it up, especially Gagnon who just came off of an injury and kicked the extra points and punts as well as grabbing an interception. Nick Haycock also had a pair of key interceptions. Kris Murdock recovered two fumbles and Ozzie Loaiza scooped up one. Jordan Blanc led the team with 13 tackles and was all over the field. Coach Blanc also noted that special teams player England broke free for some big returns to help set up the Dino offense.
The Dinos head to Moab next week for a battle with Grand and then to Emery for a game against the Spartans the following week.

Glad you like it, Lisa! We've decided to leave pricing out of our voting app, because we want feedback on the design, functionality, and craftsmanship of the pieces rather than the cost. We do offer purchase notifications, though, so if you do like a product we can send you an email and let you know if it enters our assortment. That way you can see the price once it's finalized and decide whether you'd like to purchase.

MASSENA After producing wood fuel pellets for five years, Curran Renewable Energy, 20 Commerce Drive, has become one of only two such mills in the country to be certified by the Pellet Fuels Institute for premium-grade wood pellets.
The institute uses a standard that the company follows in such areas as bulk density, diameter, durability, ash content, moisture and chlorides.
We believe with the PFI certification and a standard that we know we can meet, our quality level will be exceptional and will help us grow to the capacity that were looking to be at, said Patrick J. Curran, president and CEO of Curran Renewable Energy.
The plant is running at 70 percent of its full capacity, which Mr. Curran said is 100,000 tons of pellets annually.
If you were to break that down to four tons per home, this plant at full capacity could heat 25,000 homes, he said. And its all energy thats coming from the forest right in everybodys backyard. Its not imported.
Mr. Currans daughter, Kelli K. Curran, is the marketing and sales manager for the company. She said their sister company, Seaway Timber Harvesting Inc., 15121 Route 37, provides Curran Renewable with the wood chips that get turned into pellets.
Seaway Timber Harvesting brings all the feedstock here, so were not using any recycled wood materials, she said.
Mr. Curran said the Pellet Fuels Institute can send in an auditor at any given time to sample several bags of inventory, testing the products to ensure the company is keeping up with the certifications guidelines.
We realize that its going to add more work and more cost to doing what were doing, but were going to feel confident that every ton or 40-pound bag that we sell to the public will meet the desired specs of the PFI, Mr. Curran said. The company received the certification on Thursday.
The five types of pellets produced at the plant are pure hardwood, pure softwood, a blend of 70 percent hardwood and 30 percent softwood, pure pine and pure hickory.
Mr. Curran said 50 percent of his product is sold through Lowes, Home Depot and Tractor Supply Co., and the other 50 percent goes to stove shops. All aspects are important to the company, he said.
Mr. Curran said he has sold pellets as far east as Maine and as far west as Michigan.
New England Wood Pellet, Jaffrey, N.H., also was awarded the Pellet Fuel Institutes certification.
Mr. Curran said that although not every company is certified, all are able to compete and sell their products. However, he said that as time goes on, the public will become more aware of the institutes designation and will look for the standard on the bags they purchase.
When a person is paying for his heat, he really wants to make sure that hes getting what hes paying for, he said. If we want this industry to grow, we have to provide the best product we possibly can or this industry is just going to stop in its tracks.
