Belden Cultural Center Honoring a Lifelong Dedication to Public Service On Sunday, September 24, 2017, the City of Shelton dedicat- ed the former Lafayette School located on Grove Street as the Richard O. Belden Cultural Center in honor of the late Richard “Dick” O. Belden. Over 140 people were in attendance on a warm fall afternoon. Richard O. Belden was a CT State Representative for over 23 years serving as the Deputy Speaker and the Deputy Minority Leader Mrs. Bertha Belden (the “Bonus”) in the State of CT House of Representatives. State Representative Belden participated in many activi- ties in downtown Shelton, the Shelton Riverwalk being just one. He was also responsible for the fund- ing which created the Cornell Scott Hill – Richard O. Belden Dental Clinic in Derby, Connecticut. On August 20, 2007, Richard Belden passed away. The city and the state lost a great friend. Lafayette School was built in 1911 and served as an elementary school until its closing in 2010. Many children passed through its doors. After the school closed, the City began to transform the building into a home for local non-profits such as the Valley United Way and Center Stage Theatre along with the relocation of the city’s Registrar of Voters offices. On October 8, 2015 Shelton’s Board of Aldermen The Belden Family voted to rename the school the Richard O. Belden Cultural Center in honor of all his great accom- plishments. A formal dedication ceremony was held with Shelton’s President of the Board of Aldermen, John F. Anglace, Jr., officiating. A reception followed inviting guests to tour the building and view the showcase of memorabilia. The Mayor, along with the Belden family and House of Representative’s Minority Leader Themis Klarides, State Representative Jason Perillo, and State Representative Ben McGorty were part of this dedication.

To eliminate the walk on Indian Well Road, the CFPA “Rock Stars” used ropes and pulleys to arrange flat boulders into stepping stones across Indian Hole Brook. If the river is flooded, hikers can revert to the road bridge. Meanwhile, a massive set of timber steps began to rise slowly from the beach area, a popular access point. The steps grew all summer and fall until more than 50 steps were built, each step averaging about 2.5 hours of volunteer time. Due to these efforts at Indian Well State Park, the trail is now a pleasure to walk and much safer. A total of 58 volunteers plus CFPA staff and interns contributed. 3 SHELTOLifeN COMMUNITY NEWS Constitution Reroute Future Improvements Another major reroute was spearheaded by the Trail improvements also began in the so-called Shelton Trails Committee with the help of pro- “Poet Section” of Shelton off of Thoreau Drive.

  • Paugussett Trail a Connecticut Blue-Blazed Trail
    Paugussett Trail A Connecticut Blue-Blazed Trail The historic Paugussett Trail stretches 13 miles from Buddington Road in Shelton to East Village in Monroe. The trail is designed for advanced hikers, and is closed to mountain bikes except at Shelton Lakes. Portions of the trail are steep or have difficult footing. Most of the route crosses public land, but a few sections are on private property, and users are asked to stay on the trail and be respectful. Trail features include: Eklund Wildflower Garden, Hope Lake, Silent Waters, Indian Well Falls, and overlooks of the Housatonic River and Lake Zoar. Rustic trailside campsites are available at Webb Mountain Park (contact the Monroe Parks Department for information). The trail is marked with blue blazes on trees or other objects. A pair of offset blue blazes indicates a turn in the direction of the upper blaze. Where the trail follows a roadway, look for blazes on telephone poles, curbs, or manhole covers. PARKING There are many places with limited parking along the trail (see map). Larger lots that may accommodate groups include: Nells Rock Road; Shelton Dog Park; Shelton Intermediate School (when school is not in session); Indian Well State Park (Falls parking); and Webb Mountain Park in Monroe.

Auburn Report in 2001, the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center’s Community Health Profile and the Valley Cares Report in 2010. Early in 2014, the Valley Council for Naugatuck Health & Human Services approached the Valley Community Foundation (VCF) with a request to fund an update to the Valley Cares Report. In mid 2014, VCF initiated community conversations to discuss the need for a common-source document which would expand the scope of Beacon the Valley Cares Report and provide a comprehensive review of Falls demographic, economic, health and education issues shaping the Oxford Valley communities. An advisory committee was formed in the fall comprised of key stakeholders and nonprofit organizations to discuss critical focus areas affecting the Valley community and to define the scope of a baseline report. VCF committed financial resources to support the collection of the data and the production of this baseline Seymour indicators report as the first step in its strategic initiative work. The towns of Beacon Falls and Naugatuck were added as a result of their interest in participating in this collaboration and their inclusion in the region’s recognition for the All-American City Award in 2000. These communities Ansonia were added to the five core Valley towns of Ansonia, Derby, Oxford, Seymour and Shelton. Derby This report represents the start of a multi-year process, which will culminate in 2016 with a comprehensive study on the demographic, Shelton economic, education, health and housing trends within the region.
