Village’s ‘Mystery Girl’ contest returns after 50-year hiatus

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com ROUSES POINT — There’s nothing like a good mystery, and the North Countryman and the village of Rouses Point are teaming up to give you one.

The village will host a “Mystery Girl” contest beginning this Saturday, June 13, resurrecting an event held 50 years ago by the village and this newspaper as part of the village’s 1959 Fourth of July festivities. Readers were encouraged to guess who the Mystery Girl was based off clues to her identity which ran in the newspaper in weeks leading up to the Fourth of July celebration.

Residents Geri Favreau and Mary Racicot are overseeing this year ’s contest on behalf of the village, with the intention of bringing back what was a highly-talked about event in its day.

“I thought about us doing the contest when I saw this,” Favreau said, pointing to the front page of a 1959 edition

Program at Chazy library to offer tail waggin’ good time

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com CHAZY — There is a new program coming to the Chazy Public Library, which will have dogs being a readers best friend.

On June 4, therapy dog trainer Linda LaPier, and former reading teacher, came to the library, along with her five-year-old Brittany Spaniel Emma. LaPier read three stories about therapy dogs to the children in attendance, while they sat and petted Emma.

“I contacted Francie [Fairchild] and asked if there was some way we could do an evening with a therapy dog,” explained

See WAGGIN’, page 6

of the North Countryman, which featured an article about the Mystery Girl.

“Then, someone stopped by the house one day to talk about pictures and saw this article and thought it would be a wonderful idea to have this again.”

Favreau and Racicot began collaborating to figure out exactly what needed to be done to hold the contest, first deciding who this year ’s Mystery Girl would be.

“We had a tough time deciding who to pick,” Favreau said of choosing from among the village’s female residents.

“She had to be someone people would know, but not be able to guess right away from the clues we give.”

“We had to be careful not to give it away too easily,” added Racicot.

In the end, the Mystery Girl — whose age was not given — was chosen, along with a set of three clues, the first of which appears with this article and will run in the next two editions of the North Countryman.

“I think people will find it fun, wondering exactly who she is,” said

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com MOOERS — Each year, thousands of people walk in a Relay for Life event in support of the American Cancer Society, and their reasons for walking are many.

Marie Guay has never had cancer, and she considers herself lucky in that respect. However, she does know what it’s like to lose a friend and a family member to the disease.

Guay has been walking in the annual Plattsburgh Relay for Life since 2005, after learning her friend and boss, Gordon Hurlburt, and her mother, Christine Trombley, were diagnosed with different forms of cancer only four months apart.

“One day, my boss left to go home for lunch and didn’t come back. I

Favreau.

Ballot boxes will be set up in local businesses, giving members of the community the opportunity to guess the Mystery Girl’s identity. One winner will be drawn from correct guesses, with the winner receiving a prize.

The Mystery Girl will be unveiled Friday, July 3, during the village’s Fourth of July festivities. Beverly Barcomb, who was the Mystery Girl in 1959, is expected to be in attendance to unveil this year ’s Mystery Girl.

Though her identity will remain a secret until then, this year ’s Mystery Girl had one thing to say to the North Countryman.

“I think this contest is a great idea and I hope people really have fun with it,” she said.

Who is “she?” Keep reading the North Countryman in the coming weeks for clues that may help you guess her identity.

This week’s clue: “On the streets she often walks, always taking time to stop and talk.”

In between the time of the two diagnoses, Guay read an article about Relay for Life and contacted local American Cancer Society representative Joan Brown about participating.

“I said I wanted to do Relay with our company in support of Gordon,” she said. “I felt it was my way of being able to do something in situation where, otherwise, no one can do anything.”

After her mother ’s diagnosis of ovarian cancer, supporting the Relay for Life had even more meaning for her. It was a chance for her to

LaPoint places third in Adirondack Museum writing competition

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — One young woman’s passion for history and writing has earned her recognition from an organization that celebrates the history of the Adirondack Region.

Heidi LaPoint, Merrill, recently received notification she placed third in the Adirondack Museum’s Harry G. Remington Adirondack History Writing Competition for her essay on the history of Lyon Mountain.

The Northern Adirondack Central School District senior ’s essay gives an overview of the once thriving mining community which, in the late 1800s, was the most populated area in Clinton County.

Many hours of research went into her essay, said LaPoint, who cited “Lyon Mountain: The Tragedy of a Mining Town” by author Lawrence P. Gooley as one of the sources for her information.

“It took a lot of research,” said LaPoint. “But, I really like writing and I do love history, so it wasn’t like it was a chore. I really enjoyed it.”

When deciding the topic of her essay, LaPoint said the history of Lyon Mountain and how it became nationally known for its iron ore was an easy choice.

“My grandmother ’s father actually worked in the mines there and my whole family’s from there, so I figured it’d be really interesting to write about,” she said.

When learning of receiving third place in the compe-

tition — which received a total of 17 essays from nine different schools and one home-school entry — LaPoint said she was both “excited” and “surprised.”

“I was confident in my writing; I thought I did a decent job, especially with my research, but I was surprised,” she said. “I really enjoyed writing it. So, I was really happy.”

The writing competition was open to students in grades 9-12 in school districts wholly or partially within the Adirondack Park.

According to information provided by the Adirondack

Museum, the competition offered awards for the three best essays about a “historical person, place, document, organization, time period, business, event or location relating to a community or communities within or bordering the park.” Essays were judged on originality of idea, quality of research, and the use of a variety of resources.

LaPoint will receive a certificate of achievement and $200 for her research and writing efforts at an awards ceremony at the Adirondack Museum Thursday, Aug. 6.

CHAMPLAIN — There were several occupations on display as Northeastern Clinton Central School hosted its annual Career Day May 15.

The day began as the Rev. Al Johnson, a local clergyman, provided juniors and seniors with a full-period speech about all the options they have out in the world after high school. Students listened to his account about starting as a certified public accountant and then transitioning into being a clergyman.

A variety of careers were then highlighted in the school’s gymnasium. A meteorologist, mortician, car salesman, journalist, and representative from the U.S. Air Force, to name a few, were present to show the students a little bit of what their jobs entail and what they accomplish on a daily basis.

Dodge Memorial Library announces new books added to shelves ROUSES POINT — Dodge Memorial Library has announced a list of new books that recently arrived at the library.

The books include “Archbishop in Andalusia,” written by Andrew M. Greeley; “Bridge of Sand,” Janet Burroway; “Color of Lightning,” Paulette Jiles; “Darling Jim,” Christian Moerk; “Execution Dock,” Anne

Perry; “Fatally Flaky,” Diane Mott Davidson; “Fortunate Age,” Joanna Smith Rakoff; “In Praise of Stay At Home Moms,” Laura Schlessinger; “Just Take My Heart,” Mary Higgins Clark; “Lavender Morning,” Jude Deveraux; “Living Witness a Gregor Demarkin Novel,” Jane Haddam; “Long Fall,” Walter Mosley; “Mother for All Seasons: A Memoir,”

Rebecca Jarvis, a senior, said her favorite part was the farm stand.

High school principal Stephen Gratto finds the importance of Career Day is that it gets student ready for the real world, and allows kids to see their options.

High school English teacher Gretchen Morris was given the opportunity to attend, showing students what she does on an everyday basis.

Morris said she felt she “got a lot of good questions from the students” and the program would be even more beneficial if more professions could be explored in the years to come. Morris added she hopes the program will continue to bring teacher professions to Career Day.

North Country counties to receive funds to enhance border security

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman John M. McHugh, R-Pierrepont Manor, announced last week that five upstate counties will share more than $2.2 million in Homeland Security Funding to enhance security along New York’s Canadian border.

The funding comes from Operation Stonegarden, a program run by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that provides funding to localities to secure borders from terrorist threats.

Counties receiving funds include Franklin, Clinton, St. Lawrence, Jefferson and Oswego.

McHugh, who was recently picked to become President Barack Obama’s Secretary of the Army, said cooperation between federal, state and local

law enforcement is essential to border security.

“I am extremely pleased that the Department of Homeland Security recognized the need for these funds in the 23rd District and is providing them,” McHugh said in a press release.

Franklin, Clinton and St. Lawrence County will receive about $500,000 each through Operation Stonegarden, with Jefferson County getting just under $300,000 and Oswego County receiving approximately $150,000.

St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Police are also slated to get funding in the amount $264,788.

McHugh says funding of this nature also enhances the border and helps in combating cross-border drug trafficking.

“The Tribal Police and law enforcement officials are working hard to

keep our communities safe,” he said.

“This funding will provide them with the technology and equipment they need to be safer and more effective.”

Grants provided by Operation Stonegarden are used to support land border jurisdictions in preventing and responding to border security issues.

Funds are often used to acquire up-todate technology, as well as improving communication between local, state and federal law enforcement agencies.

McHugh, who has not yet been confirmed as Army Secretary, has also partnered with Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand to designate Franklin, Clinton, Jefferson and St. Lawrence counties as High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas. Such designation draws additional federal resources to those areas as they combat drug trafficking.

ALTONA — The Mooers Alumni Association will be hosting their annual Alumni Banquet Friday, July 17, at the Rainbow Wedding and Banquet Hall.

The committee is looking for alumni phone numbers and addresses of several former Mooers Central High School graduates, as well as graduates of Northeastern Clinton Central School who have graduates from Mooers Elementary School and reside in Mooers.

Organization aims to help youths struggling with sexual orientation

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — It was about nine years ago when Janet Sosnicki announced to the world she was gay.

“I was living on Long Island and I went to a youth center that was really a resource for me, that helped me understand and be more comfortable with who I am,” said Sosnicki.

Now 26 years old, Sosnicki reflects on what a difficult time it was in her life as she tried to finally be herself while helping her parents understand as well.

“My parents had a difficult time with it,” Sosnicki said of her coming out. “Even though they didn’t necessarily understand or agree with it, the center was a resource to not only me but to them with information to help them cope.”

“It helped me and my entire family,” she added.

Having a resource like that is something Sosnicki, who now lives in Plattsburgh, feels is important for the North Country. Often times, adolescents begin to question their own sexuality, leaving them confused and searching for answers, she said.

That is why Sosnicki and her partner, Sarah Cayea, have established the Plattsburgh Youth Pride Alliance.

“It’s something that we’ve both always had an interest in starting,” said Sosnicki.

“We just decided to take the initiative to get it going and see where it goes.”

According to the alliance’s mission statement, the purpose is to create “a safe place for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (GLBTQ) high school students who live in Plattsburgh and the surrounding areas” that will empower them “by providing them with educational resources and a social support system.”

“We’re trying to create a network of people and information that will give them the opportunity to get to know other people who may be going through the same thing,” said Sosnicki. “We want to make sure they know they’re not alone in whatever process they’re going through.”

Cayea, who grew up in the North Country where the topic of homosexuality has traditionally been more taboo, said she wished she had such a resource when she was younger. Cayea came out five years ago after graduating from Plattsburgh High School, when she became actively involved in her college’s gay-straight alliance, commonly referred to as a GSA. “I think I always felt different growing up, but I never really put two and two together until I became involved with the gay-

straight alliance,” Cayea said. “I don’t think I knew gay people in high school, and if I did, it was kept pretty quiet.”

“The GSA that’s at the high school now wasn’t even existence when I was there,” she added. “I think I may have been more apt to educate myself if it was and be more comfortable in my own skin. I knew I was different but just didn’t know how to accept it.”

Once she came out, Cayea said she began getting more involved with things in the community.

“It sort of gave me a sense of belonging I don’t think I would have had otherwise,” she said of admitting her sexual orientation.

Drawing from their own life experiences, Sosnicki and Cayea hope to offer resources through the Plattsburgh Youth Pride Alliance that will make the road a little easier for youths who are today facing the same challenges they faced years ago.

The alliance is also open to youths who aren’t necessarily gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and questioning themselves, but to those who are straight who may be trying to understand about a friend going through the process of struggling with their sexual orientation.

“When you don’t understand something, it’s hard for you to accept it. Being able to get information can help make it easier

sometimes,” said Sosnicki.

Though some may see the North Country as an area which can isolate the gay community, Sosnicki and Cayea both admit the majority in the area is rather progressive in its thinking when it comes to the issue of homosexuality. However, with the fact there are still those out there unaccepting of the issue, both are working hard to provide services through the alliance with anonymity for those seeking support as their top priority.

“We take confidentiality really serious, because some of these kids might not be out to their parents. They may be out at school but not at home,” said Sosnicki. “We will have a list we’ll keep for accountability, but that’s something that won’t be released to schools, parents, anyone.”

“There are still a lot of parents and community members that aren’t accepting of the gay community,” said Cayea. “We still have to use caution.”

The Plattsburgh Youth Pride Alliance will hold its next meeting at the May Currier Building on Tom Miller Road Friday, June 26, from 7-9 p.m. Those who would like to learn more about the alliance may visit www.plattsburghyouthpridealliance.com or send an e-mail to contact@plattsburghyouthpridealliance.com.

Understanding Medicare health plans This is a fee-for-service plan that covers many health care services and certain drugs. You can go to any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare by using your red, white, and blue Medicare card. Original Medicare pays for many healthcare services and supplies, but it doesn’t pay all of your health care costs. Additional costs you must pay include coinsurance, co-payments, and deductibles. These costs are called “gaps” in Medicare coverage. You might want to consider buying a Medigap policy.

Founded By Wm. D. Denton

More browser choices that fit your style

If you have one of these plans, you don’t need a Medigap policy. These plans include Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO), Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO), Private Fee-for-Service Plans, Medicare Special Needs Plans, and Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans (MSA).

These plans may cover more services and have lower outof-pocket costs than the Original Medicare Plan. Some plans cover prescription drugs.

In some plans, like HMOs, you may only be able to see certain doctors or go to certain hospitals to get covered services.

Medicare Prescription Drug Plans These stand-alone plans add prescription drug coverage to the Original Medicare Plan, some Medicare Cost Plans, some Medicare Private Fee-for-Service Plans and Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans. EPIC (Elderly Pharmaceutical Insurance Coverage Program), a New York State program helps seniors pay for their prescription drugs.

The Medicare plan you choose affects many things like cost, benefits, doctor choice, convenience, and quality. These health care choices work with the benefits you have from Medicare. What you choose will affect how much you pay, what benefits you have, which doctors you can see, and other things that may be important to you.

NORTH COUNTRYMAN - 5

The beauty of small-town America

Mountain to Lake Bike Ride coming July 12

hidden below the fullywrapped candies at the top of their baskets. Oh, well. One day out of the year where they pig out on candy can’t be all that bad ... Well, that and Halloween. Okay, so make that two days.

Overall, the St. Ann’s Bazaar was a nice event to take your kids to and to spend a day relaxing in the company of good people, enjoy some great entertainment and, again, savor the great food the bazaar had to offer. This event, paired with many others I’ve been to in my past two years here, is what makes me enjoy living in the North Country.

And, again, to Dawn Boulerice and all the people who made last Sunday’s event happen, thank you for the invitation to an event that’s truly a piece of Americana.

’m thinking the fine people in the communities of Mooers and Mooers Forks must have an in with Mother Nature.

The weather couldn’t have been more perfect as St. Ann’s Church hosted its annual bazaar and parade last Sunday under warm, sunny skies with cool intermittent breezes. I was honored to be one of the guest judges for the parade, alongside Cory Ross of Ross Funeral Home and Joan Brown with the American Cancer Society. We had a difficult task of deciding who would take home the gold in each category, but I’m confident we picked truly deserving winners. Regardless, every entry was something to be proud of, in my opinion.

Those of you who were there may have also seen my colleague, Sarah Cronk, there with camera in hand, taking photos of the dozens of floats, old cars and other entries. When Sarah’s job was done, she didn’t take off immediately to enjoy the rest of her Sunday afternoon — she stuck around and we both sampled the great food at the bazaar and visited with people also enjoying the very family-friendly event.

And, speaking of family, I was able to bring my sons to the event, who sometimes accompany me on assignments, and they had a great time. They were smiling ear to ear over the amount of candy they got at the parade and so was I ... even though I later learned they had sneakily eaten of it when I wasn’t looking to put a small animal into sugar shock. The only evidence I had was the layer of empty candy wrappers

at a higher price — even with your coupon. If you use your coupons when the chicken is on sale for $3.29/pound, you won’t have them anymore when the chicken’s price drops below the $2.00/pound mark Until next week, I’ll leave you with an exciting example of another reason you should save your coupons. Pairing a $1 coupon with a $1 sale results in free items! Now, you

By Jill Cataldo may be thinking, “Really? Is it that easy?” You be the judge.

This week, pasta, cartons of lemonade, instant potatoes and toothbrushes were on sale at my store for $1 each. I redeemed a $1 coupon for each of those items, so they were free to me.

But in each case, the coupons I used came from inserts published weeks ago; a shopper wouldn’t find them in the current week’s inserts. Shoppers who clip coupons the old-fashioned way might not have needed a toothbrush three months ago, when the $1-off coupon ran in the paper. So, they threw the insert away. Super-Couponers keep their inserts. They understand the coupons inside may provide them with the chance to land a free item in the future.

Why throw away money? © CTW Features

rmed with the knowledge every item in the grocery store is on sale at its lowest price just once in a 12week time span, planning your shopping trips around what is on sale versus what you need in a particular week is the next step to saving money on groceries.

For example, boneless, skinless chicken breasts are a perfect example of a price-volatile item. Last week at my grocery store, chicken breasts were on sale for $1.79/pound. This week, they’re $5.29/pound. While I may not plan to make a meal with chicken breasts this week, I know that because they were at their low price point last week, it will be about three months before I see them at that great price again. Last week, I bought enough chicken to last my family until they’re offered again at a low price.

But I didn’t pay $1.79/pound for my chicken. I paid $1.29/pound. I used a 50-cent coupon for each package I purchased, but the coupons I used weren’t offered in this week’s paper. The coupons I used were several months old — not expired, just older than this current week.

Now, if you currently use coupons, let me guess how you do it: Your Sunday newspaper arrives. You page through the coupon inserts, clipping out the items you want to buy this week … and you throw the insert away. But this is the No. 1 mistake most coupon users make.

Why is this a mistake? Grocery stores’ best sales rarely coincide with the week coupons for these items appear in the newspaper. The grocery store knows weeks in advance what coupons are coming out in the paper. They also know most people who use coupons will cut them and use them the same week that they came in the newspaper. So, the grocery store will typically put some of the coupon products on sale — just not at their lowest price points. Shoppers will think they’re getting a deal, but the store has enticed you into purchasing

Fundraisers bring attention, help to shelter’s financial situation

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PERU — Support for the Elmore SPCA continues to grow in the face of animal shelter ’s ongoing financial crisis.

According to Inger Joy and Carol Solari-Ruscoe, president and secretary of the shelter ’s board of directors, respectively, shelter revenues have not kept pace with operational expenses over the past few years. In order to balance the 2009 budget expenditures, Elmore SPCA must raise an additional $40,000 between now and the end of this year.

As a result the shelter is facing closure by the end of the year if it cannot raise approximately $67,000.

In recent weeks, individuals and groups alike have stepped up to help Elmore SPCA by hosting their own fundraisers. Food collection drives, gift basket raffles, dart tournaments and, most recently, a cocktail party benefit at LivinGood’s Restaurant in Plattsburgh, have been among the events hosted to help, much to their delight, said Joy. “I have been absolutely astounded,” said Joy. “I’ve seen people coming to us with the most amazing fundraisers saying, ‘What can we do? We’ve got an idea. Can we do this?’ And, we say go for it.”

One woman held a three-day raffle of homemade Easter baskets, raising nearly $600, which she donated to the shelter, said SolariRuscoe. Another woman sold potted perennials at $3 each and raised almost $270. One man has even gone as far as sending letters to various organizations asking for donations and has been quite successful, leading those at the shelter to believe the community does appreciate all they do.

“The outpouring from the community has been humbling,” said Solari-Ruscoe. “It’s just been amazing. Thanks to the fantastic community support, our revenues are up for the first five months of the year.”

The cost to operate the shelter is about $120,000 a year, said Joy. That amount consists of the expenses associated with caring for an average of 25-30 dogs, more than 80 cats and other animals on a daily basis. The amount also covers costs such as insurances, utilities, trash removal and payroll for one-full time manager and three part-time staff members at the shelter.

“That is no frills,” Joy said of the shelter ’s budget.

In order to compensate for that, approximately 30 percent of the shelter ’s revenue comes from municipal contracts Elmore SPCA has with eight towns and the city of Plattsburgh to take in stray animals, said Solari-Ruscoe. Another 15 percent is from the adoption of homeless pets. The majority of the shelter ’s revenue comes from donations, and funds earmarked for such things are medical expenses, money received from coin banks set up in area businesses, fundraisers and memberships.

Although raising money is critical, the board has also found recruiting volunteers is just as important, said Solari-Ruscoe. Currently, a four-person board and one advisor oversees the financial management of the shelter, but there’s a need for others to lend a hand both on the board and in the shelter, she said.

“Obviously, four of us can’t do it by ourselves,” said Solari-Ruscoe.

“We have to rely on a volunteer base because our shelter needs go beyond walking the dogs or cleaning cages. It includes things like

Livingood’s Restaurant in downtown Plattsburgh was among one of the most recent settings for a fundraiser for Elmore SPCA. The cocktails and hors d’oeuvre party was hosted June 6 by a group of supporters of the shelter. Joined by shelter animals, supporters were, in front, from left, Tyler Spiegel, Krista Boulé with daughter Georgia Boulé, Keri Mack, Judy Belrose, Kirsten Pope and Alex Gibson.

carpentry skills, electrical expertise, trash hauling, spring cleaning of our shelter — there’s so much that needs to be done.”

“Between the shelter workers who love these animals and care for them, and the board members and the volunteers from the community,” added Joy, “we have an amazing network of people that, hopefully, will grow as time goes on.”

The network, for now, is one the entire board, staff and volunteers appreciates, said Joy and is one of which the North Country can be proud.

“I just want to thank the community for their involvement,” said Joy. “They have not only helped us with financial and food donations, they have also encouraged us. We get little notes that say ‘Thanks for your great work,’ ‘You’re doing a good job, keep it up.’ That does a lot for our morale.”

“I keep on saying it, and I mean it from the heart, we are so appreciative of what everybody has done and continues to do because they always want to see those animal always have a place that they can go to,” said Solari-Ruscoe.

Elmore SPCA, located at 510 Arthur Road, is open Tuesday through Saturday, 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information about making a donation to the shelter or volunteering, call Joy at 563-7223 or Solari-Ruscoe at 534-3484.

If interested in adopting an animal, call the shelter at 643-2451 or visit the shelter Web site at www.elmorespca.org for donation information, adoptable pets, and upcoming events. Contributions may also be mailed to Elmore SPCA, P.O. Box 686, Peru N.Y. 12972.

Third-grader competes at New York’s Yankee Stadium

Saranac youth ‘really excited’ about opportunity

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com

SARANAC — Eight-year-old Zachary Marlow has a golden arm — which sent him all the way to New York City.

A Yankees baseball fan, Zachary competed in a Pitch, Hit and Run competition June 6 at Yankee Stadium.

The PHR competition is open to kids ages 7-14, and, according to Major League Baseball’s Web site, www.mlb.com, is aimed to “encourage youth participation and emphasize the fun element of baseball.”

In pitching, participants pitch six baseballs at the “strike zone,” receiving 75 points for every ball that hits the target. In hitting, kids hit a baseball off a tee from home plate, and receive points for accuracy and distance. Finally, for running, points are racked up by speed as the participant runs from second to home base.

On May 5, the Clinton County Youth Bureau hosted the local competition of PHR at Chip Cummings Field at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh. There, Zachary was the hit and

run champion for his age group, which sent him to compete in the sectional competition in Saratoga Springs May 16.

“He [qualified] in Plattsburgh last year but didn’t make it in Saratoga,” explained Zachary’s father, Timothy Marlow. “This year, he qualified in Plattsburgh again and then qualified with what I think was a very good score for an 8-year-old — 633.”

Because of his high qualifying score in Saratoga Springs, Zachary was able to compete in the Team Championship event at Yankee Stadium. The championship is held throughout the country at all 30 Major League ballparks.

“I was really really excited,” Zachary said, when he found out he would be competing at Yankee Stadium. “It was very fun. When I went there I was pretty nervous. When I got in the stadium, it just all went away.”

“It’s a great experience for him, what he went through,” added Zachary’s father. “It’s just awesome.”

To practice for the NYC competition, Zachary had the benefit of going across the street from his home to practice in the baseball field by Saranac’s town hall.

“[I] took him over there and worked as much as I could with him,” explained Timothy.

While at Yankee Stadium, Zachary got a score of 340 points, which put him in third place out of his age group. Although not enough to send him on to the national finals in St. Louis, Mo., which only takes the top four participants for each age group throughout the country, Zachary still has six more years to try again.

“It’s a great experience, and hopefully he can make it again,” Timothy said. “What an experience to go on a major league field. I think that’s just great. I wish the results were better, but he gave it his best, like any kid.”

Even though Zachary did not make it to St. Louis as he’d hoped, he still had the experience of a lifetime. While at Yankee Stadium he visited Monument Park, which honors distinguished members of the Yankees, he got to watch a Yankees game, and was honored before the game at home plate.

“I was pretty proud of him because he got us there,” said Timothy, who has been a Yankees fan since he was Zachary’s age.

Annual car show and craft fair returns next Saturday

STAIRS GOT YOU DOWN? YOU NEED A STAIRLIFT!

Complete/Installed

Chamber of commerce to host event in conjunction with giant garage sale jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — It’s a new year and new venue as the Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce prepares for its annual Great Adirondack Car Show, Craft Fair and — this year — Giant Garage Sale.

The chamber of commerce will hold the event, now in its 11th year, at the Crete Memorial Civic Center on Cumberland Head Road next Saturday, June 20.

Jody A. Parks, executive vice president of the chamber of commerce, said the highly-anticipated event has grown over the past decade with more and more ideas of how to build on their success.

“It started out as a car show and then it merged into a car show/craft fair and this year we’ve actually teamed up with WOKO and we’re adding a giant garage sale which I think it going to be a blast,” said Parks.

“WOKO has been doing this over in Vermont and having tremendous success with it, so we thought we’d give it a shot over here.”

The giant garage sale will be paired with the annual craft fair, giving those attending the event even more bargains to choose from,

said Parks.

“I think everybody’s got something that they don’t use anymore that they’d like to get a little cash for,” Parks said of the sales, “and, on the other hand, people are always looking for something where they can get a great deal.”

The main attraction for the day, however, is still the annual car show. Thirty classes for cars, trucks and even motorcycles round out the event, said Parks, which results in quite an impressive display. “[The cars] are shining and beautiful the day of the car show,” said Parks, who credited participants for the amount of work they put into preparing their entries.

“And, you’ll see anything from a 1920s car to a 2009 car in this show.”

Car show participants and

those attending the event will be able to vote for the top three winners of each class. In addition, those attending the car show will have the opportunity to vote for the winner of the People’s Choice Award, which highlights the crowd’s overall favorite.

“It’s always interesting to see who wins that one because you never know if it’s going to be a really old car or a brand-new car that’s all decked out in its glory,” said Parks.

The event, which is a general fundraiser for the chamber of commerce, will begin with car show registration at 9 a.m. Gates will open for general admission at 10 a.m., with the craft fair and giant garage sale also beginning at that time. Peer judging for the car show will be held from noon to 1:30 p.m., and

PLATTSBURGH — As groups for young professionals have been springing up in communities across the country to help recruit and retain quality employees, one organization has spent the last two years focusing on that same mission. Now, the time has come for them to take the next step.

The Adirondack Young Professionals — a nonprofit organization which focuses on creating networking opportunities for young professionals in the North Country — will host an official membership drive Thursday, June 25, at the Naked Turtle restaurant and bar on Dock Street.

Keri Mack, secretary of the ADKYP board of directors and organizer of the membership drive, said the event will be a chance for members of the business community to become formal members of the business- and civicminded organization.

The ADKYP, which has been in existence since 2007, will begin charging a $20 membership fee in an effort to build a formal membership base and raise money

for the various functions its hosts throughout the year, said Mack.

“We needed to start putting money in our accounts so we can start paying for things like letterhead, which may seem like a small thing, but if you don’t have any money, becomes a big thing,” said Mack. “We’ve formed our board of directors and received our nonprofit status thanks to help from the [Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce], so this was the next logical step.”

The formal memberships will be paired with discount cards that will give members deals at area businesses like Koffee Kat, Yarborough Square, Cumberland 12 Cinemas, and the Naked Turtle, and even Pendragon Theatre in Saranac Lake, to name a few.

“We wanted to be able to give the people in our organization who show up on a regular basis some sort of benefit and form a more cohesive group,” said Mack.

“It’s a $20 membership, but by the time they utilize any of the discounts, within a couple of months they will have reimbursed themselves for that $20 they spent.”

“And, they’re supporting both local businesses and an organization that’s trying to keep people here in our area,” Mack added.

Though she believes the

discount card will be an attractive incentive to becoming an ADKYP member, Mack believes the mere opportunity to be part of an organization that helps create networking opportunities and gives back to the community through numerous charitable events will be enough of a reason for many to join.

“Anyone who joins during this membership drive will essentially be a founding member of this organization.

Those people will basically have ownership in this organization in its infancy and really be part of it making things happen in the community,” said Mack.

The June 25 event at the Naked Turtle will begin at 5:30 p.m., and feature a Hawaiian theme. During the evening, there will be food and drawings for several prizes, including an overnight stay at the Whiteface Club and Resort in Lake Placid and gift certificates from area businesses.

“It’s going to be a fun event with really good food and lots of things going on,” said Mack. “It’s going to be very relaxed. We really just want people to come and bring their friends.”

Waggin’

Senior citizens council planning to Akwesasne Mohawk Casino

From page 1 LaPier. “Which we did. Now we’re hoping to establish some kind of a six-week long program.”

LaPier, who has worked with dogs for more than 30 years, takes Emma to St. Mary’s Academy in Champlain once a week to have Emma sit with the students while they read aloud.

“I was just telling the teachers [at St. Mary’s] how well the kids have progressed over the course of the year,” LaPier said.

Fairchild, who is the director of the Chazy Public Library explained having a therapy dog by a child while they read a loud is much less intimidating for them.

“For kids that have trouble reading, the dog is totally non-critical,” Fairchild said.

“It’s just less intimidating to the children and it’s worked.”

The program which Fairchild and LaPier hope to begin in July, will allow children from the area to visit the library once a week, for six weeks, to spend time with Emma and read aloud.

“They don’t have to be kids with difficulty with reading,” explained LaPier.

The program, which is titled “Tail Waggin’ Tutors” is a program from Therapy Dogs International Inc., a volunteer organization which tests and registers therapy dogs, of which Emma is registered.

Tail Waggin’ Tutors, according to their pamphlet, introduces children to the world of reading and books “in a positive and unique way.”

“As a reading dog, [Emma] will sit and she’ll listen and it gives the kids a forum where they’re not going to be judged,” LaPi-

The cost per person is $28 for members and $38 for non-members. Price includes transportation only.

If interested in attending, money and registration are due by Monday, June 22. For more information, call Amy Besaw at 563-6180.

If interested in signing up your child for the therapy dog reading program at Chazy Public Library, contact Fairchild at 846-7676, by the end of June.

“We’re just hoping that people will call if they want their children to read with a dog,” said Fairchild.

“I’m a doer,” said Guay.

“And, I wanted to fix it. But, you can’t. So, this is my way to do something. It makes me feel better to be able to say I’m doing something.”

Though Guay eventually lost her mother and her friend to cancer, she continues to walk. She walks in their memory and so that one day, there is a cure.

“Hopefully, we can raise enough funds to do enough research to find a way so people don’t have to die from cancer,” said Guay. “It used to be when you were diagnosed with cancer it was a definite death sentence. It’s not anymore. It’s come a long way but it’s got a long way left to go.”

This year, Guay has stepped up her role in the Plattsburgh Relay for Life by serving as chairman of the survivor committee, which honors cancer sur-

Being able to give as much as she can to the cause is something she said she knows both her mother and Hurlburt would want.

“We’ve planned a lot of great things this year for our survivors, because the Relay is all about our survivors,” said Guay. “I wish my mom and Gordon could’ve been, but I know they’re looking down on us.”

The Plattsburgh Relay for Life — which will be held at the Clinton County Fairgrounds in Morrisonville — will be held from 7 p.m Friday, June 19, through 7 a.m.

Saturday, June 20. An opening ceremony kicks off the event, followed by the “Survivor Lap,” with cancer survivors walking the first lap of the 12-hour event.

Though the event is only a week away, teams may still register on-line at www.relayforlife.org/plattsburghny. Donations may also be made to teams of one’s

choice through the site.

Guay wants to remind everyone it’s not too late to sign up.

“I didn’t get involved until I had a reason to, and most people are like that,” admitted Guay. “Don’t wait for something to happen in your life to motivate you — be proactive, be a participant of the Relay, go to the Relay to support cancer research.”

Community reminded of landmark cancer study MORRISONVILLE — This year’s annual American Cancer Society Relay for Life will give the community the ability to participate in a potentially-groundbreaking study.

The cancer prevention study, commonly referred to as CPS3, is the third in a series of nationwide studies to better understand the causes of cancer. Researchers will use the data from the study and previous studies conducted since the 1950s to better help them understand the often life-threatening disease.

The Plattsburgh Relay for Life, which will be held at the Clinton County Fairgrounds Friday, June 19, through Saturday, June 20, will be the only time CPS-3 registration will be taken in the Clinton County region this year. Though the initial enrollment takes approximately 20-30 minutes, the study is expected to produce benefits for decades to come.

Registration for the study will be open to those ages 30-65, who have never been diagnosed with cancer and willing to make a long-term commitment to the study. Those interested in learning more may attend the Relay for Life June 19 from 6:30-10:30 p.m. There, participants must complete a brief written survey, provide waist measurements, and give a small blood sample.

For more information or to learn how to become involved in CPS-3, call Linda M. Boire at 562-2633 or visit www.relayforlife.org/plattsburghny and click on the CPS3 link.

SATURDAY June 13, 2009

CLINTON TODAY / NORTH COUNTRYMAN - 13

It gets in your pores, man S

everal of my childhood summers were spent at my grandparents’ fishing cabin, deep in the black-fly infested wilds of northern Quebec.

The experience was great not only for myself and the boatload of cousins who accompanied me, but also our parents who were able to ditch us for two months without the overhead of a traditional summer camp.

There were moose. There were bear. There was manbearpig. Well, not the real manbearpig, but we did have a neighbor named Lionel who resembled something between a heavyweight boxer and a fur coat.

He’d drink Canadian whiskey, laugh and slap our backs so hard you’d swear your eyes had popped clear out of your skull.

Then, he’d mumble something in French Canadian, point and laugh some more.

At least we thought it was French Canadian. It could have been some booze-created dialect that required soaking the listener with tobacco-tainted spittle.

Either way we couldn’t make out a darn thing the manbearpig said. Which is probably how Gram wanted it. God forbid we returned to grade school the next year spewing French Canadian obscenities at our classmates through tobacco-tainted spittle.

As entertaining as we found old Lionel, however, nothing could top the never-ending string of pranks my cousins and I would play on one another to wallow away the hot summer days.

It seemed little was sacred and Gram — as long as no one got bruised or bloodied — would more-often-than-not applaud the creativity of the prankster and chide the gullibility of the prankee.

Perhaps my all-time favorite, however, was played out on my cousin, Mike, by my brother, Brian. The year was 1980 and the pair agreed to hike to a small pond directly behind camp.

Bored with the pace of the fishing, Brian decided to bet Mike $10 he couldn’t walk the length of a 30-foot log that hung precariously over the water.

Without hesitation, Mike said, “I could if I take off my shoes.”

Out he went, inch-by-inch, balancing himself with outstretched arms while delicately placing one bare foot before the other until he finally reached the spindly tip of the fallen tree.

“See,” Mike said triumphantly, spinning slowly to face where Brian stood watching. But, Brian was no longer there. Instead, he had taken up a perch at the other end of the log and began leaping up and down, causing Mike’s end to wabble like a teeter-totter.

“Aaaauuuggghhh,” Mike wailed and began running down the log toward safety.

Two steps into the sprint, the realization hit he wasn’t going to make it and he launched himself toward shore — only to land in three feet of water and six feet of black pond muck.

When he emerged, he looked like a cross between a Siamese cat and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

I’m not sure where the Siamese cat analogy came from, but trust me, he looked really ugly — and smelled even worse.

Ironically, Lionel’s camp contained one of the only indoor showers for miles, so, we stuffed Mike in and scrubbed him raw with common household cleaners.

I say ironically because one would not consider a device that aids in the pursuit of personal hygiene to top Lionel’s list of favored camp amenities. Or, even the common household cleaner part — but anyway, I digress.

Unfortunately, for Mike, black pond muck is like great soul music — it gets in your pores, man.

In fact, I saw him just last year at a family gathering and he still stunk a bit like wet socks in the rear of the family van.

I am kidding, of course. Great soul music doesn’t really get in your pores, man. Black pond muck, on the other hand, is like the International Paper waste treatment plant in mid-August. You can smell it from Quebec.

If it makes you feel any better, Mike — I spoke to Brian, and he’s got your $10.

John Gereau is managing editor of Denton Publications and an avid outdoorsman. When he isn’t enjoying a good prank on his cousin, Mike, he can be reached at johng@denpubs.com.

WEST PLATTSBURGH — It went so well last year, they’re doing it again.

The North Country Chapter of the American Red Cross will host its second annual “Ride for the Red” this Sunday, June 14, starting at American Legion Post 1619 on Rand Hill Road. The event, which is a motorcycle ride to raise money for the nonprofit organization, raised more than $3,000 for chapter programs and services last year.

Local Red Cross executive director Jeanie D. Roberts said last year ’s ride was well-attended, leading the chapter to continue what she hopes will become a local tradition.

“We had 45 riders and 57 participants,” said Roberts.

“We are hoping that we will have more participants this year as the forecast is looking sunny on Sunday. The more participants we have, the more dollars we will raise to support the chapter — which is our goal.”
