FALLS VILLAGE — The snowstorm that hit the area on Saturday, Oct. 29, left the town without power. Heavy, wet snow took down numerous limbs from trees, and people with generators became very popular.

“I was on the bus writing down the melodies I was hearing,” she said. She cited Mozart, Beethoven and Eric Whitacre as major influences.
She admitted cheerfully that she has “no idea what I want to do.” She hopes to find out at either Amherst or Yale.
Not the Berklee College of Music in Boston?

Superintendent Award - Falls Village

patricks@lakevillejournal.com

FALLS VILLAGE — Emily Hennessey, recipient of the 2011 Superintendent Award for the Lee H. Kellogg School, reads novels and stories by Ray Bradbury, Stephen King and anything that can be described as “creepy stuff.”
