Sandy Hook
 
FYI, there is a corvette link to this tragedy.

The Tues. night cruises we used to have in Newtown at Burgerittoville are right down the road from Sandy Hook Elementary. The school is about 1 mile east of where we met off I-84 Exit 10.

My town is an emotional wreck, this is extremely difficult to get through. We know 3 of the devastated families and many, many more that were much more fortunate to be able to hug their children. My children are older, but 3 of them went to that school. They are pretty distraught as are my wife and I.

Thank God for the first responders and the brave teachers and administration who prevented a much worse situation.

The Corvette link is not a direct ZR-1 link, but related to my local car club, Candlewood Valley Corvette Club.

Janet Vollmer and Bill Vollmer are members of the club. Janet is a teacher and hero from Sandy Hook Elementary. In the midst of all the chaos, she locked down her classroom, put her children in a safe position, and read them stories until help arrived. Janet's professionalism and quick actions saved the lives of her class.

Just thought you guys would like to know this. Bill was always present at the Tues. night Burgerittoville cruises and has stopped by our ZR-1 tent at Carlisle many times.

Please pray for those affected by this horror.

Nearly unimagineable to fathom a beautiful 6 year old with 11 bullets in them. As a parent it is the unthinkable. Our hearts are broken.

I STILL can't watch a TV spot with kids in it and not think of what happened. I change the channel on anything related. I have my
head squarely planted in the sand and that's where I want it.
I'm traumatized as I think the nation is.:icon_scra

Scott, Thanks for posting this. The principal was from Naugatuck, and there was a very moving vigil Tuesday night for her and her family.

One of my wife's co-workers on the DFD was actually on site helping with triage. He is a very strong guy, and I understand this has messed him up pretty well too.
