To the Editor:

We have been waiting, with great anticipation, all winter to walk the Ashuwillticook Rail Trail. On a recent beautiful, sunny day we drove all the way from Albany, N.Y., to downtown Adams to pick up the trail on main street. To our great disappointment and disgust, the trail in both directions, was covered in dog feces, both fresh and what obviously had been there all winter. We had to turn back and abandon our plans, it was so repulsive and disgusting.

Koperniak Homers Twice in Triple-A Team's Win

By Alex Coilmilb.com
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Memphis Redbirds continued a six-game homestand with an 11-3 win over the Nashville Sounds (Triple-A, Milwaukee Brewers) on Saturday night at AutoZone Park.
 
Center fielder Matt Koperniak thrived out of the leadoff spot for Memphis in the win.
 
The left-handed hitter smacked two three-run homers in consecutive plate appearances and finished the night 3-for-5 with two runs scored, two home runs and six runs batted in. The game was the Hoosac Valley High School graduate's first multi-homer game of the season and a new season high for RBIs in a single game.
 
One batter after Koperniak’s home run in the sixth inning, right fielder Jordan Walker clubbed his first home run at Triple-A this season. Shortstop Arquimedes Gamboa posted his best game as a Redbird with a 2-for-3 4 RBI performance.
 
For the season, Koperniak is second on the Redbirds with a .302 batting average. He also has a .473 slugging percentage with six homers and 11 doubles.
 
Memphis, the Triple-A affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals, currently is in third place in the International League West.
