Aquinnah Police Chief Randhi P. Belain celebrated a major milestone on Wednesday, March 30. Hurray for our chief. Hail to our chief who respectfully carries on the tradition of his late father, Kenneth F. Belain, our police chief for twenty-two years who served our community so well. Randhi certainly learned many great lessons from his dad. Although I did not catch up with him on Wednesday, I will before the end of the week.

Work continues on the NStar project installing conduits under the harbor for a new electric cable to Chappaquiddick. Last week sections of plastic pipe were welded together to make four long conduits, and were lying ready by the side of the road up from the Point.

We interrupt your newspaper reading with a little quiz.

In what month are the first tomato seeds planted at Morning Glory Farm?

Which is not a contest at the Agricultural Fair? Oxen pull, clam and oyster shucking or chicken plucking?

Don’t even need to scratch your head before answering? Then you are all set for playing How Green is Your Vineyard, a special edition trivia game out this month. Coming up with a blank? It’s a time-out in the compost bin for you.

How Many Island Artists? Arts Census to Find Out

Time to stand up and be counted - for the arts.

The Martha’s Vineyard Arts and Culture Collaborative is beginning a census in order to create an inventory of those involved in arts and culture on the Island. At the same time the collaborative is prospecting for ideas about what initiatives could offer the greatest benefit to the arts community of the Island.

Getting counted doesn’t hurt at all, either. Merely fill out a survey online at marthasvineyardarts.org.
