Around Town

Congratulations to the CVU Brain Bee Team, which was one of nine high school teams competing in the Vermont Brain on Feb. 10 at the UVM Larner College of Medicine. Medical school faculty and students asked high schoolers questions that involved health-related topics, and the winner is the one to answer the most correctly. This year’s champion came from Middlebury Union High School. However, it took two rounds of finalist questions before she won.

Sympathy is extended to family and friends of Marilyn (Lyn) Perrin of Charlotte who passed away on February 11 at the age of 83. Lyn and her husband, David, were members of the Charlotte Congregational Church,aa where her musical talents were on display in the choir. She also sang with the Champlain Echoes for 50 years and played trumpet in the Bolton Band. The family asks that, in lieu of flowers, contributions in her memory be made to a charity of the giver’s choice or to the Charlotte Congregational Church, 403 Church Hill Road, Charlotte 05445.
