MORIAH Ñ Fire district consolidation is again an issue in the town of Moriah.

Increased worker compensation costs have led Moriah’s fire districts to ask the town for more funding for 2014. That increase, about $12,000 for the Moriah Fire Department and the Mineville-Witherbee Fire Department each, has town officials revisiting pos-

Downtown Gallery gets a new sign.

By Fred Herbst HAGUE Ñ A Ò transitional facility to house recently paroled inmatesÓ will not be coming to Hague.

David Kidney requested a change in use for the Hague Motel at a meeting of the Hague planning board Sept. 5 to convert the Lakeshore Drive motel into a facility for recently-released prison inmates. He has since changed his mind. Ò They really donÕ t want what IÕ m selling,Ó Kidney said Sept. 11. Ò At this point IÕ m not going to pursue it. Right now, itÕ s a dead issue.Ó The motel is located in the hamlet area of Hague that is zoned for commercial use.

Because itÕ s in a designated hamlet, the Adirondack Park Agency has no jurisdiction in the matter, but any change in use must be approved by the local planning board.

Kidney made his request at the Sept. 5 meeting of the planning board. A few days later he received a letter from Dominick Viscardi, the Hague town attorney, seeking additional information. That letter convinced Kidney his proposal was not welcomed by town officials. Ò I think theyÕ d make my life so difficult I’d never get it (the facility) open,Ó Kidney said.

It takes a town to make a sign

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ The Downtown Gallery in Ticonderoga has a new sign thanks to a community effort.

Located at 119 Montcalm St., the gallery got its sign just in time for its one year anniversary celebration recently. Ò How that sign came to be reminds me of the very old childhood story Ô Stone Soup,Õ which is about making something from nothing,Ó said Chattie Van Wert, Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance volunteer director. Ò A good-tasting soup, beginning with a stone and boiling water, becomes a fabulous soup with the addition of a little bit of this and that provided by individuals in a small community.Ó In making plans for the galleryÕ s anniversary members and volunteers decided a sign was needed to identify the art exhibition hall. Ò Nice signs are costly, so it had to be affordable while representing the quality of the local art and craftsmanship found inside the gallery, and it should be installed for the celebration,Ó Van Wert said.

Fate intervened when Van Wert met Emily Sola in the post office one day. Sola is a retired professional sign painter and artist.

Ò When asked for her thoughts about a sign at the gallery she generously offered to paint one if we would do the rest,Ó Van Wert said. Ò In searching through barns and basements for wood, gallery artisan Jim Barnes offered an oak coffee table-top, which he expertly crafted to the right shape and size, as his contribution. After determining a metal bracket from my barn was too small, Frank Bangma of Bangma Signs, offered to exchange it for a larger bracket of like quality and style. Ò With bracket and board in hand, Emily spent days sanding the old table top and preparing the surface with multiple coats of sign paint,Ó she added. Ò The day of the anniversary celebration was drawing near when Emily found iron hangers her late husband had made for attaching a wood sign to a metal bracket.

After drilling holes in the sign, she completed the fine work of lettering the day before the celebration.Ó After Code Enforcement Officer Bill Ball gave approval for the sign, Pete Reale gave permission to drill holes into the brick on the front of his building and Van WertÕ s husband Art Hatfield tied up several loose ends. The night before the celebration, Scott Hearburg rounded up Tommy Dedrick with the Dedrick Tree Service bucket truck to safely lift Gary Olcott who anchored the bracket to the building. The next morning Dedrick returned with his bucket truck and Jimmy Cruickshank to hang the sign. Ò The Downtown Gallery now has a beauti-

fully-crafted, hand-lettered, wooden sign, far less common these days than more affordable high-tech vinyl and composite materials,Ó Van Wert said. Ò The whole project was completed at the affordable cost of donations and volunteers

who are willing to help improve our community.Ó Ò So hereÕ s a big thank you and recognition to everyone who helped make something from nothing for downtown,Ó she said.

Emily Sola made the new sign now hanging at The Downtown Gallery on Montcalm Street in Ticonderoga.

The sign is a result of a community effort.

Ticonderoga to host relay runners About 3,000 athletes expected

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ About 3,000 runners will be in Ticonderoga Sept. 27 and 28 as part of a nearly 200-mile relay race.

Ticonderoga Middle School has been selected as an exchange point for the second annual Ragnar Adirondack Relay, which will feature more than 260 12-member teams running from Saratoga Springs to Lake Placid.

Since Ticonderoga is an exchange point, every runner in the 192.7-mile race will be here. ItÕ s one of only six exchange points in the race. Ò Each team will have two vans with six runners,Ó explained Katie Aston Seely, race director. Ò Since Ti is an exchange point, one van of runners will be completing a leg and the other van will be starting one. One group will be in Ti waiting for its team, then the other group will stay in Ti to rest and refuel.Ó Ticonderoga was also an exchange point for the race last year. Ò WeÕ re happy to host the race again,Ó John McDonald, Ti school superintendent, said. Ò Last year it was all good. Everything worked very well.Ó Ticonderoga Middle School will be open to runners beginning Friday, Sept. 27, at 4:45 p.m. to Saturday, Sept. 28, at 5:30 a.m.

Actual hand-offs in the relay race are expected to take place between 10 p.m. and 1 a.m.

The race will allow several student and community groups an opportunity to make money, according to Bruce Tubbs, the Ti event coordinator. Ò The Ticonderoga exchange is exchange 18 and is a major stop with a pasta meal planned, shower facility and sleep over available,Ó Tubbs said.

Community members are asked to help out, too. Ò Volunteers are needed to assist with parking, resupplying water, monitoring the runner exchange, first aid, traffic control, etc.,Ó Tubbs said. Ò The main action will be between the hours of 11 p.m. and 3 a.m. with many of the teams arriving at the school for a meal and to watch their team mates arrive for the bracelet exchange.

“With last year being the first time this race was run in our area, and the first for our volunteer team, we are looking to continue with another successful exchange effort,Ó he said.

Invasive species found spreading in Putnam Asian clams located in Glenburnie PUTNAM Ñ Spring post-treatment survey results suggested that the seven acres of mats placed on the lake floor last winter successfully killed off populations of Asian clams in Lake George. However, a two-week lakewide survey currently in its second week reveals that the invasive clams are showing up in new locations as well as spreading beyond the treated areas.

New clam populations have been identified by volunteers and staff from the various organizations that make up the Lake George Asian Clam Task Force. New locations with clams have been found at Million Dollar Beach, Sandy Bay, Cotton Point and Basin Bay in southern Lake George, as well as the private boat launch area in Glenburnie in the Northern Basin. Ò We have a sound and proven method to kill off the clams that we treat, but itÕ s not enough to contain them,Ó said Walt Lender of Ticonderoga, executive director of the Lake George Association. Ò While it is unfortunate that we have moved beyond an eradication and containment strategy to a long-term management and control operation, we are still able to build upon our past successes to learn more about the clams so that we can better manage them. The detection of the juvenile stage of the clams is the challenge; control has been successful where clams larger than 2mm are found. We need to continue surveys to document the rate of spread and study the species in more detail to understand what we can do to best manage the populationÓ said Meg Modley, the Lake Champlain Basin ProgramÕ s aquatic invasive species management coordinator. Ò This latest news demands targeted research aimed at understanding the lifecycle of the Asian clam which will open new doors to more effective treatments that can stop the spread and limit impacts to the lake to the fullest extent possible,Ó said Dr. Sandra Nierzwicki-Bauer, director of the Darrin Fresh Water Institute. Ò This is not the time to throw in the towel, but, rather, to redouble our efforts to develop better methods for treating the problem without delay. This will take concerted action and com-

mitments from regional, state and federal interests to achieve success.

The value of Lake George as a natural treasure of international importance warrants such initiative,Ó said Eric Siy, executive director of the FUND for Lake George.

Plans are still being developed for the new sites as well as expansions of existing sites.

“Based on survey findings, our control strategy for the more established sites was thwarted by the aggressive reproductive abilities of these invasive clams,Ó said Chris Navitsky, Lake George Waterkeeper. Ò This development only amplifies the need for mandatory measures to inspect and decontaminate all trailered boats before entering the Lake. Protection from invasives ultimately requires prevention while we study new and better ways to tackle those species that are already here.Ó Plans are still in the works Kristen Rohne of the Lake George Association searches for Asian clams. The invasive species has been found for the next round of treatment. at a private boat launch area in Glenburnie. Ò We are prioritizing locathis out now will inform our upcoming fall efforts.Ó tions based on a series of factors including spread potential, reDave Wick, executive director of the Lake George Park Comsearch value, recreational uses, density of clam populations, and mission, reaffirmed, “This Task Force has successfully adapted ecological sensitivity, but there are many things to consider and and honed management techniques for adult populations of not enough resources to do everything we want to do,Ó Lender Asian clams in Lake George, and will continue to shape monisaid. “At the top of the list for right now is trying to find out toring, research, and management efforts as necessary to idenwhether the adult clams in the lake have just released another tify and address the invisible spectrum of juvenile populations, generation of offspring.

Flooding in Colorado heart wrenching

I

t is hard not to harken back to August 2011 and the devastation the region endured at the hands of Tropical Storm Irene when viewing the images coming from the 15 Colorado counties most impacted by the recent violent flooding there.

Stories and photos shared on Facebook by loved ones and friends in Colorado are heartwrenching. The news is tragic and the story is still unfolding.

Five people have been confirmed dead after 15 inches of rain pounded Colorado non-stop for nearly a week. As of Monday afternoon, 1,200 people remained cut off from the outside world with no electricity and dwindling supplies of food and running water.

State emergency officials say the death toll is expected to rise as rescue efforts into mountainous backcountry areas have been severely hindered by the wet weather. Roadways and bridges have crumbled by the rising flood waters, which cover more than 2,000 square miles across 15 counties Ñ an area twice the size of the state of Rhode Island.

To date, nearly 19,000 homes have been damaged, with at least 1,500 destroyed and 11,000 people have been evacuated.

President Obama signed a major disaster declaration last weekend, ordering federal aid for the flood-ravaged state, and the Colorado National Guard is at the scene, using 20 helicopters to rescue people trapped by washed-out roads and bridges. Most had been grounded, however, by heavy rains, fog and hampered visibility.

ItÕ s been two years since the North Country endured similar conditions following Tropical Storm Irene. People here are still rebuilding and awaiting the final buyout of homes destroyed

by Irene. Images of that fateful storm that were published in this newspaper are eerily similar to photos being circulated on news wires from Colorado, with homes underwater and people trapped by disintegrated roads and other infrastructure.

In comparison, Tropical Storm Irene dumped upwards of 10 inches of rain on the North Country, much of it in less than a 24-hour period, combined with winds of 69 mph at its center Ñ just 5 mph slower than needed for hurricane status. The storm caused 10 deaths, left 1.1 million people without power and caused $1.3 billion in damages.

Locally, the communities of Au Sable Forks, Keene, Jay and Upper Jay were some of the hardest hit, although few communities escaped the stormÕ s wrath. Like in Colorado, President Obama declared a disaster declaration, paving the way for help from the Federal Emergency

Management Agency and the New York National Guard was on site to help devastated communities recover.

Blame it on global warming, natural weather cycles or just plain rotten luck, few would argue that our weather has gotten more and more extreme as of late. One hundred year floods seem to be commonplace these days and our aging infrastructure is not liking it. With that in mind, it is imperative that initiatives such as Gov. CuomoÕ s NY Rising Communities be put in place to help communities rebuild in such a way that they are better prepared for the next severe weather incident.

If there is one thing history has shown us, it is that the North Country will undoubtedly face again the type of devastating flooding Coloradans are now experiencing. The only way to mitigate the damage is to be realistic in that it will happen again, and begin preparations now knowing where the majority of the damage occurred in the past.

While the up to $6 million pledged to the North Country under the governorÕ s NY Rising Communities initiative is a start, it is but a drop in the bucket toward the money needed to shore up the stream banks, bridges, roadways and other pieces of infrastructure that will be impacted by the next severe weather event.

In the meantime, on a local level, it is vital to support your first responders as well as the American Red Cross Ñ the individuals who will be at the forefront of coming to your aid.

Just as disaster workers from the American Red Cross were deployed here in the North Country in August 2011, the group is now in Colorado, providing food and shelter to those affected by the flooding.

More than 250 trained Red Cross disaster workers are currently deployed to Colorado, along with more than 20 emergency response vehicles and six trucks of relief supplies. Working with the Southern Baptist Convention, the Red Cross has served more than 7,100 meals and snacks. Earlier last week, as many as 1,000 people stayed in 24 shelters across the state.

People can help by donating to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund by visiting www.redcross.org; calling 1-800-REDCROSS; or simply texting the word REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation. You can also check on the status of a loved one by visiting www.safeandwell.org.

People on a national scale came to the aid of New York state and the North Country following Tropical Storm Irene. It is time we return the favor. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Letters to the Editor

Appreciative To the Times of Ti: On behalf of the Italy 2014 travelers, I would like to thank the community for supporting our June fundraisers. We congratulate our raffle winners, First Prize - IPAD mini - Sue Yaw (Cassie Martucci sold this winning ticket), Second Prize - Mini Fridge and Freezer - Ann Gray (Ciarra Gray sold this winning ticket) and Third Prize - $50 Stewarts Gas Card - John Coon (Jeannette Coon sold this winning ticket).

We also want to thank everyone who donated bottles and cans for our bottle drive. A huge thank you goes to GinnyÕ s Redemption Center for their hard work counting over 8,000 bottles.

Jennee Darragh Italy 2014 Group Leader Ticonderoga

Reader takes issue with column To the Times of Ti: Is anyone else out there disturbed by the weekly racist rantings of the Publisher of the townÕ s only newspaper? This time Mr. Alexander likens his being stopped by a policeman for a very good reason--his car resembled that of a vehicle used in a crime, the race of the driver being irrelevant--to the stopping of a black man simply for being black! But then, thatÕ s IT, isnÕ t it, the absurd non-logic that says that, since some black men commit crimes, then all black men are suspects, because they--the guilty and the innocent--RESEMBLE each other?

How a presumably educated human being arrives at middle age with such a lack of insight is truly puzzling. That he is the voice of a newspaper is an insult to the publication. Well, maybe heÕ s not the only voice: I urge the Editorial Board of The Times of Ti to use its own column to separate themselves from their embarrassing Boss--unless, of course, they agree with him.

Jeff Kleiman Elizabethtown

‘Friendly rivalry’ To the Times of Ti: The historical record will show that on this date, Barack Obama walked without a smile up to Vladimir Putin, shook his hand, turned to the cameras and smiled, then while exchanging a few words, in less than a minute, turned around again and almost immediately walked away.

For me there could have been a few minutes of idle chit-chat between these two great military powers at this point in time, but it didnÕ t happen and I will present my observations. For now, however, I will present my criticism of some members of the house and senate. Some members of the house and senate are not as old as I am, but they have been in congress long enough to know what I know and they have left the president ignorant of the fact that Russia has a huge stockpile of nerve gas.

I do not believe that Russia will use this nerve gas and I do believe Russia would like my policy of Ò friendly rivalry.Ó However, the great amount of nerve gas is so massive and difficult to handle, some may accidentally find it’s way to various factions in different countries. It is exceedingly dangerous.

What we need is something good to talk about and we could listen to Ann MurrayÕ s thought that Ò what we need is a little good news todayÓ and here it is: A man with an AK-47 swinging at his side and 500 rounds of ammunition on his person walked into a school in Georgia filled with children recently, only to be met by a young black woman who realized that he was emotionally disturbed and possible mentally handicapped. She took up this situation without having been given any warning and without having had and previous training.

I would like to talk to any psychiatrist who thinks they may have done as well as this young woman during the 32 minutes while calming him down by talking to him and other people prior to his being taken into custody.

I would like to know her full name that may be Antoinette. No one was injured in anyway and I think newspapers, television and radio missed a good story.

Hague FD needs volunteers To the Times of Ti: A huge, heartfelt thank you goes out to all the businesses and community members that supported the Hague Fire DepartmentÕ s steak roast. ItÕ s always a blessing to have so much positive encouragement and unwavering support.

The open water swim held from the Hague beach in late August was provided safety support by our own fire rescue boat, ambulance and EMS crew on stand-by. There were no major incidents reported, but it was good that we were there.

There were 10 ambulance calls totaling 220 volunteer hours and 22 fire calls and drills for a total of 198 volunteer hours in the month of August. It was a very demanding month for our department and its volunteers. Volunteering offers many rewards.

In addition to improving your community and advancing causes that are important to you, volunteering can help you develop and grow as a person. Many people find that volunteering is a great way to express gratitude for help they received from an organization in the past.

We need volunteers — firefighters, EMTs, fire police and other supportive positions. Young adults, 16 or older, are encouraged to join. New York State Fire Association offers college tuition reimbursement funds. For more details on this fantastic program, visit the FASNY website at: https://www.fasny.com/ It’s that time of year again when our fire chief asks all our town folk to do regular home heating system maintenance and outline safety procedures in your home. This will give you fuel savings and protect your family from any unwanted and dangerous surprises — including chimney fires. If you can not afford or properly clean your heating device, please contact the fire department. We are not free chimney sweeps but itÕ s best we visit your home in street clothes rather than full turn-out gear. In addition, we can also advise you on the best method to dispose of your hot ashes. Some of these new pellets can smolder for long periods of time, even in the snow bank.

Once again the HVFD will be involved in some way helping to make the annual Oktoberfest weekend a great success. Come out to enjoy great food, good music and lots of fun.

Leaf peepers will soon be out on our roads, so keep a careful eye out for these welcome visitors.

School is in session, keep an eye out for those big yellow busses with the little short passengers that donÕ t always look both ways. Please “Like” us on Facebook (Hague Fire & EMS).

Why merge schools?

To the Times of Ti: On Aug. 21 the Crown Point Central School and the Ticonderoga Central School advisory committee met for the final time to present their findings on merging the two school districts.

Alan Pole and Jessica Cohen from Castallo and Silky Education Consultants presented the advisory committees findings. The findings can be found at www.cpcsteam.org, click Merger Study.

The Ticonderoga School District has a very good reputation.

Therefore, prior to this meeting I was considering voting in favor of the consolidation. However, after attending the presentation I have reconsidered.

The Ticonderoga School is a very good school, and if I resided in Ticonderoga I would have no reservations about sending my children there. However, I live in Crown Point, and the committee gave these findings: Ñ Last year Crown Point School scored higher on the state tests than Ticonderoga. Ñ The Crown Point school building is sound. Ñ The student enrollment is stable. Ñ Crown Point students would ride a bus for an hour to Ticonderoga.

The Crown Point School Districts finances are balanced, and the staff is highly-educated and motivated. Also, if the merger did not take place Crown Point residents would maintain control over their own school board, community members would travel less to school functions and the children would have less bus time and more time for home work.

Why is a merger even being considered?

Pressline from page 6 What the letter writer doesnÕ t know is that I have personally known, worked for, admired and hired men and women of all races and skin color during my 59 years on this earth.

Each is unique and each has made choices in their lives that either caused them to achieve their goals and find happiness or have kept them from doing so. In nearly every case those who took personal responsibility for their actions, good or bad, were capable of holding their heads high. Those who looked to blame others for their misfortunes always seem to be stuck in the same place and could never place blame on the single person most responsible for holding them back Ñ themselves.

Mr. Kleiman, I recognize and respect your effort to put your thoughts in print and for speaking up when you disagreed with my position. Under normal conditions your letter would not have been published were it aimed at anyone other than me, but since IÕ ve chosen to put my views on display it would be unfair for our editor to withhold your views. This country faces many problems and we stand a far better chance of addressing them if we are civil with each other and seek solutions not based on prejudice but on achieving results. I would also be happy to publish your suggestions on solving the violence in many of our troubled New York City neighborhoods and how you would address the racial differences in our country.

Horace Nye transfer nears the finish line DOH Council to make final determination Oct. 3

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — The finish line may be in sight for the sale of the Horace Nye Nursing Home to Centers for Specialty Care.

The New York State Department of HealthÕ s Planning Committee voted Sept. 12 to approve the Certificate of Need transfer from the county to the New York-based company, moving the process on to the full Planning Council.

The council will meet on Thursday, Oct. 3, to make the final determination. Ò What generally happens is they approve what is accepted by

the committee and then we should receive a letter within two or three weeks,Ó said County Attorney Dan Manning, who attended the committee meeting last week.

“They approved the transfer of the certificate in committee and the full planning council will meet on Oct. 3,Ó he added.

“We should have the final approval for the sale by the end of October.Ó With approval, the state committee added stipulations to the certificate relating to some Medicaid directives and Centers for Specialty Care providing proof relative to their ability to finance the sale.

Those were added to stipulations already placed in the contract by Essex County, which include allowing the current employees to remain on staff if they desire, ensuring those who are already residents of the home may continue to live there and giving top priority in admittance to Essex County residents.

Once official word of the transfer is received by both sides,

St. Mary’s School sixth graders visited the planetarium at Ticonderoga High School, where science teacher Paul Jebb instructed them on astromomy.

Manning said that the ball will start rolling quickly toward a Dec. 31 finish line. Ò We are hoping to close on the whole deal by the end of December, and weÕ re hopeful that it will be fully transferred over

by Jan. 1,Ó Manning said. Ò We do not see where there will be any problems.Ó County Manager Dan Palmer, who also attended the Sept. 12 meeting, said a transition plan is starting to take better shape. Ò We were able to speak to the owners in New York City,Ó Palmer said. “They are scheduled to come up in the first part of December to conduct meeting with the department heads and then later to come back and conduct meetings with the employees.Ó Ò There will be several steps to take, including us as a county meeting with the employees and they will also hold meetings,Ó Manning said.

Hague From page 1 After Kidney withdrew his request a public hearing on the issue scheduled for Oct. 3 was canceled.

Kidney wanted to purchase the Hague Motel and convert it to a Ò transitional facilityÓ for parolees, but first was seeking the change of use approval. Ò I am looking to change the use of the Hague Motel to be used to help paroled inmates from the (state) Department of Corrections integrate back into the community of the Lake George area,Ó Kidney wrote in his application. Ò My program, which will include Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous, will continue to educate the parolees in many areas of life, including honesty and being productive members of society. This will be up to a 12-month program for 12 parolees. There will also be a spiritual side to my program on a non-denominated church basis.Ó Kidney is a Connecticut resident whose son is now in prison and has drug and alcohol issues.

David Kidney Ò I have a son with drug and alcohol issues, who is currently serving time in Connecticut prison,Ó Kidney said in his application. Ò I want to be able to help him and others like him. I intend to live on site.Ó Kidney attended school in Glens Falls and choose Hague for his project because he has family in the area.

A construction manager by trade, Kidney planned to employ the parolees on home renovation and repair projects in the area.

The parolees coming to Hague were to be from Upstate New York, Kidney said. They would have been expected to follow house rules and complete rehabilitation projects such as attending AA and NA meetings, working, maintaining the facility and more.

The Ò transitional facilityÓ was to be staffed by Kidney, a chaplain and a director, if approved.

In his application Kidney addressed security issues. Ò For security purposes doors and windows will have an in-house alarm to alert staff the comings and goings of all residents,Ó Kidney said in his application. Ò There will also be a sign in/out sheet to monitor daily activities. There will be consequences for violation of house rules, Alcohol and drug testing will be done randomly. Ò I will work with the community to be sure security measures are in place that are comprehensive, yet unobtrusive to the neighbors,Ó he said. Ò I am certainly willing to work with my neighbors to achieve the right balance.Ó

Search for missing Massachusetts man continues in Keene

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com KEENE VALLEY Ñ New York State Police along with the Chicopee, Mass. police are working together in a search for an avid hiker who was last seen in Keene Valley.

Scott Haworth, 46, of Chicopee was reportedly last seen Sept. 5 at the Valley Grocer in Keene Valley attempting to cash a check. He was reported missing Sept. 10 by a coworker in Massachusetts when he hadnÕ t been heard from since Aug. 24.

Chicopee Police Captain Dan Sullivan said

they handed over the search to New York State Police when HaworthÕ s car, a 2002 Red Ford Focus, was located Sept. 5 in Keene at a parking area on State Route 73 near the Round Pond trailhead.

Haworth is described as 6Õ 0Ó tall with blue eyes and dark and gray hair, weighing approximately 165 lbs.

New York State Police Information Officer Jennifer Fleishman said following a search of HaworthÕ s home by Massachusetts police, it was determined that all of HaworthÕ s camping gear was left at his home. Ò His family said he is an avid hiker, he lives alone and heÕ s been known to go hiking alone,Ó

Sullivan said. Ò The only person who might know why he left or why he didnÕ t bring his gear is Haworth.Ó Haworth was reportedly a member of the Adirondack 46ers club and Fleishman said he was Ò very knowledgeable of the Adirondacks.Ó Ò There is nothing reported that would lead us to believe he had a need to disappear,Ó Fleishman said.

State Police along with the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Forest Rangers began a search for Haworth Sept. 10. Forest Rangers are leading the ground search. On Sept.

Literacy group preps for adult learners Tutor taring slated in Port Henry

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com PORT HENRY Ñ Children throughout the country are back in school. So are some adults.

Literacy Volunteers of Essex/Franklin Counties is preparing to welcome adult learners this fall, according to Maria Burke, director. Ò Our mission is to enable people over the age of 16 to achieve personal goals through student-centered literacy tutoring,Ó Burke said. Ò This past year we supported more than 140 adult learners, and trained more than 40 volunteer tutors. Sixty seven percent of our students showed academic improvement by at least one grade level.Ó With an office in Port Henry, Literacy Volunteers of Essex/ Franklin Counties is an affiliate of Literacy New York, one of the state’s largest nonprofit organizations dedicated to advancing the cause of adult literacy and basic education.

Burke said illiteracy is a major problem in the North Country.

“Many of these adults find ways to hide this fact from their coworkers and friendsÑ even their own families,Ó she said. Ò Common avoidance techniques include finding an excuse to steer clear of reading aloud, hiding their writing from others or committing everything to memory to avoid jotting things down.Ó Literacy Volunteers would like to help those in need. Ò As children and teens go back to school, this is the perfect time for adults in need of educational services to take this important step to improve their own literacy skills,Ó Burke said. Ò Being illiterate is not a joke and can be difficult to recognize and admit.

Our organization helps adults address their literacy challenges.

Trained tutors work one-on-one with adults who need help with basic reading, English-as-a-second-language and math skills. We also provide literacy programs in local correctional facilities Ñ Moriah Shock, Adirondack in Ray Brook, Bare Hill in Malone, and we recently partnered with Franklin County Jail as well. Ò With the new GED exam we also anticipate a rush of adult learners who would like to receive their High School Equivalency Diploma before the end of the year,Ó Burke said. Ò ThereÕ s

not much time left, and there are only two testing dates available for adults in our region. The new GED will be more rigorous, computer-based and access will be limited. Thankfully, the New York State Education Department will offer an alternative high school equivalent exam called the Test Assessing Secondary Completion, which should be ready to roll out in early 2014. It, too, will be more rigorous, but more accessible and still available in a paper and pencil format.Ó Interested people can call Burke at 546-3008.

Literacy Volunteers is also seeking volunteers this fall. Ò In order to support these adult learners, Literacy Volunteers relies heavily upon dedicated volunteer tutors who provide oneon-one or small group instruction to native and non-native English speakers,Ó Burke said. Ò Volunteer tutors are patient, compassionate, flexible and willing to give at least two hours a week to his/her adult learner. Tutors are expected to attend the tutor training prior to being matched with a student.Ó Literacy Volunteers will have a tutor training session at its office in Port Henry Tuesday, Oct. 1, at 1 p.m. For more information call Burke at 546-3008.

lose control of what residents pay to dispose of trash. As long as itÕ s a municipal operation, taxpayers have a say in the costs through their elected officials.”

MoriahÕ s trash transfer station, located on Joyce Road in Mineville, is part of the Essex County system. The county owns the station equipment. The town is responsible for the costs of trash disposal, personnel, utilities and associated expenses.

The Moriah trash station generates enough revenue each year to pay for its operation and to pay the $40,000 annual payment for closing the old town landfill on Pelfishire Road.

“None of the money for the transfer station or landfill closure comes from taxes,Ó Scozzafava said.

MoriahÕ s station is open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. ItÕ s run by one full-time worker and one part-time employee. When needed a highway department employee or a community service worker assigned by the local court assists. Ò ItÕ s a bare bones operation,Ó Scozzafava said. Ò We have what we need, but nothing else.Ó To make certain MoriahÕ s trash transfer station stays in the black, the town raised disposal fees last year from $2 to $2.50 for a 30-gallon bag of trash. It was the first rate increase in a decade.

There is no charge for recycling.

There is a problem at the station, Scozzafava noted. Moriah charges to dispose of trash by the bag, because it doesnÕ t have scales. It pays to dispose of trash by weight Ñ $55.20 a ton. Ò The fault with our system is that we charge by volume and pay to get rid of it by weight,Ó Scozzafava said. Ò We need scales.Ó Scozzafava believes Essex County, which owns all the other equipment at the trash station, should buy the scales for Moriah. Ò Whose responsibility is it to put scales at the transfer station?Ó he asked. Ò It should be the county.Ó Moriah generates an average of 130 tons of trash a month.

ThatÕ s second most, behind North Elba, in Essex County.

Construction and demolition debris is also accepted at the Moriah trash station. The price for that disposal is based on the amount of debris. Ò We donÕ t try to make a profit on C & D,” Scozzafava said. Ò We do it for the convenience of our residents and contractors.Ó

Moriah trash station no burden to taxpayers User fees pay for operation, old landfill closure

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com MINEVILLE Ñ The town of Moriah trash transfer station will be operated by the town of Moriah. No question about it.

Supervisor Tom Scozzafava made that clear recently when discussing solid waste costs and suggestions the local system should be privatized. Ò The solid waste system should be the responsibility of a municipality,Ó he said. Ò Once you give up control of it you donÕ t know where your trash goes, what happens to your recyclables.

You donÕ t know if the private company is sound environmentally. Ò Then thereÕ s the issue of costs,Ó the supervisor added. Ò You

Lisa Henry and Cris Gribnau of the Wadhams Waddlers perform in the annual Port Henry Labor Day parade. The 123rd annual event was a two-day celebration marking the end of summer.

Moriah From page 1 another look, the supervisor said.

“Almost anytime there is a fire in the town all three departments (including Port Henry) respond,” Scozzafava said. “It’s almost like we have a town-wide fire district now, except for the funding.Ó Creating a town-wide fire district would expand the tax base for fire protection and bring equity to taxpayers, Scozzafava said.

Now, Moriah’s three fire districts all pay different tax rates — Moriah $1.33 per $1,000 of assessed value, Mineville-Witherbee 95 cents and fire protection 88 cents. Using this year’s budget, a combined fire district tax rate would be $1.14.

Consolidation would not mean reduced fire protection or response time, the supervisor said. The Moriah and MinevilleWitherbee fire stations could remain open and keep their equipment.

There would be changes in fire leadership, though, in a consolidation. Now the Moriah and Mineville-Witherbee fire districts each has a board of commissioners and each department has its own officers. If consolidated into one district, there would be one board of commissioners and the single department would have one set of officers.

Scozzafava admits, consolidation may not be popular with some firefighters. Ò I donÕ t want to start World War III,Ó he said. Ò I just want to have a discussion.Ó Ò There is grant money available for a study and the state is offering incentives for consolidation,Ó the supervisor added. Ò This may be a good time to look at it.Ó MoriahÕ s town board will have no say on the issue. Any consolidation proposal must be initiated by the Moriah and Mineville-Witherbee boards of fire commissioners and would have to be approved by a referendum of fire district voters.

Elks make donation to cancer center Crown Point woman honored

CROWN POINT Ñ The six Elks North District Lodges recently donated $2,300.00 to the C.R. Wood Cancer Center in honor of Penny

Carr of Crown Point, who was diagnosed with breast cancer last July and is under the care of Dr. Eric Pillemer and the cancer center team.

The lodges include Glens Falls No. 81, Whitehall No. 1491, Ticonderoga No. 1492, Keeseville No. 2072, Plattsburgh No. 621 and Saranac Lake No. 1508.

The idea of the donation came from David Gload who explained that usually the district lodges will present the out-going district deputy with gifts to honor his or her year of service.

However, Gload decided that since the motto of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks is Ò Elks Care - Elks Share,Ó it would be the right thing to do to help those in need instead, the C.R. Wood Cancer Center. Ò My diagnosis is one shared by so many in the North Country,Ó Penny Carr said. Ò I feel

very honored that David Gload and the members of the North District chose to do this.Ó The donation will be used to support the purchase of the new linear accelerator which will arrive later this fall.

“This is a first in North District Elks history,Ó Gload said. Ò Penny and Dave say the C.R. Wood Cancer Center is the best around. We couldnÕ t argue with that, and we are pleased to support the tremendous work the centerÕ s team does for our region.Ó

September 21, 2013 Mark Michalak, 31, was charged with first-degree criminal contempt, a felony, after he allegedly violated the terms of a court-issued order of protection when he engaged in a domestic dispute at a residence on Lake George Avenue in Ticonderoga, Ticonderoga police said.

Michalak was released on an appearance ticket, police said.

Shots fired

A Hague man was jailed Sept. 15 after he allegedly fired three shots from a high-powered hunting rifle toward a man as part of a property dispute, state police said.

David N. Busick, 38, was charged after the shots were fired around on a private road off New Hague Road, according to police.

Busick was charged with a felony count of reckless endangerment and misdemeanor counts of menacing and prohibited use of a weapon, police reported.

He was arraigned in Horicon Town Court and sent to Warren County Jail for lack of bail.

The man at whom Busick allegedly shot was a contractor who had been hired by a landowner to put up Ò postedÓ signs on property near BusickÕ s, police said. There had been a dispute about access to the land, police said.

The contractor was driving away from the area when he saw a man emerge from a home, point a rifle toward his vehicle and shoot from about 70 feet away, according to police.

The truck was not hit. No injuries were reported.

Beware of the crescent moon L

ast week, I had planned to write a column about the effects that moon phases play in triggering animal movements.

The story, as I had it framed in my mind, was to focus on autumnÕ s harvest moon, which occurs on Sept. 19 this year.

The harvest moon is the full moon that occurs closest to the autumnal equinox.

I wanted to compare and contrast the frequency of game movements triggered by the arrival of the harvest moon with those that occur as a result of the hunter moon, which arrives 30 days later on Oct. 22.

Many sportsmen, and sportswomen believe the first full moon of autumn marks the beginning of the first period of whitetail wanderlust and the second full moon begins the most intense period of buck activity.

Bucks may begin attracting a harem shortly after the harvest moon, but they rarely begin to breed until the hunter moon has passed in October. Predictions for this yearÕ s indicate the dates of Oct. 24 and 25 may be the beginning of the annual rut.

According to legend, Native Americans considered the hunters moon to be the Ô medicineÕ that caused deer to be so reckless.

As a result of numerous scientific studies, evidence reveals it is actually the diminishing hours of daylight that triggers the whitetailÕ s mating season.

I was framing the story in my head last weekend, as I drove back from New York City.

We made the long trip south to LaGuardia Airport to send our daughter off on a flight, as she’ll be studying abroad this semester.

Rather than deal with the heavy traffic leaving the city on I-87,

www.timesofti.com

I decided to take the Taconic Parkway for part of our trip home.

At the sun set, the moon appeared as a silver sliver in the evening sky. And as it sunk slowly below the far horizon in the early evening sky, Venus appeared to be perfectly aligned with the rising moon.

But when the moon soon went down below the horizon, the evening sky turned as black as the paved highway.

The Taconic features two, two-lane roads that are divided by a narrow strip of land that features occasional sections of vegetation. It is similar to the Northway, but with far more curves, narrow lanes, closer shoulders and a lot more cars.

Due to the roads many curves and frequent hills, the high beams of approaching vehicles traveling are often aimed directly at the windshields of vehicles heading in the opposite direction.

Visibility is often reduced to near zero while traveling head on into a long string of vehicles going south.

And even though the hunterÕ s moon was still a month or more off in the future, the red eyes of a thousand critters were everywhere.

Before the pitch black of night completely enveloped the roadway, I had already counted more than 30 road kills.

It appeared deer were moving everywhere! They were on the median strip, on the roadside, and even in the pull-over, parking areas.

I saw more deer in just a half hour of driving than IÕ ve witnessed in three entire seasons of hunting in the Adirondacks.

I also saw raccoons, rabbits, a red and a gray fox or maybe a coyote, several porcupines, and more eyes than I could ever hope to identify.

It was truly weird to see so much game on the move.

After leaving the Taconic to pick up I-90, the number of eyes reflecting in my headlights began to diminish, but there was still plenty evidence of their passing, and most of it was splattered flat as a pancake on the tarmac.

Although no trucks are permitted on the Taconic, there were plenty of 18-wheelers traveling the Thruway. Very little of an animal is left behind after being run over by that many wheels.

We made a fast trip through Albany, and soon the time and miles went along at a quick lick from Saratoga Springs to Exit 30.

As I turned left off the ramp onto Route 73, the dashboard clock read 2:38 am. The sky was pitch black and yet sparkling with stars. I was getting drowsy and dreaming of a soft bed.

After cruising through the infamous intersection of malfunction junction, I saw very few critters, but one of them happened

Times of Ti - 21

This dramatic pairing of a brilliant crescent moon with Venus occurred in the night sky over the High Peaks. to be a big doe.

I encountered it as I was cruising along the narrow, winding hill that drops down through Chapel Pond Pass.

The old doe was piled up dead, in the middle of my lane and with no room to maneuver between the deer and the stonewall that serves as a guardrail. I was forced to drive right over it. Welcome back to the Ô Dacks Ñ thud!

The initial contact sent our little Pontiac Vibe airborne, but it was a short liftoff.

The vehicle promptly returned to tarmac. I was notified by the screech of rubber as all four tires touched down at once.

I will admit it was quite a thrill in the dark of night, following a 16-hour journey to the city and back.

I pulled over in a parking lot at the bottom of the hill to inspect the damage, and fortunately, there was no apparent damage to the vehicle.

The tin and plastic had survived, but my nerves were shot.

For the rest of the journey, I slowed down to a snailÕ s pace. I continued to encounter more spattered critters and I noted many sets of reflecting eyes on the side of the road before I got home.

I now believe the best time to be on the hunt is not after the harvest moon, nor even during the timeframe of the hunters moon.

It seems to me the ideal time to be out is when the crescent moon first appears in the autumn sky. Unfortunately, it appears about a month before the big game hunting season begins.

Peru establishes itself as the team to beat Saranac Lake 20, Moriah 14

Moriah fell to Saranac Lake in the final quarter, 20-14, in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference football action Sept. 13.

It was a back-and-forth contest with the outcome in doubt until the closing seconds.

After Saranac Lake had taken a 6-0 lead in the first quarter, Moriah took the lead in the second period when quarterback Cole Gaddor hit Tyler Pratt with a 43-yard scoring strike. The pair connected again for the two-point conversion and the Vikings held an 8-6 advantage at the half.

Saranac regained the lead in the third period, but Moriah responded with a 15-play, 83-yard march to score in the final stanza. C.J. Raymond got the touchdown on a 3 yard blast to give the Vikings a 14-12 edge.

A win wasnÕ t to be for Moriah, however. Following a long kick off return, Saranac Lake drove for the winning TD. Raymond and Gaddor had big games for Moriah. Raymond ran for 136 yards on 29 carries. He also caught five passes for 76 yards. Gaddor hit 9-of-16 passes for 139 yards. Pratt, who caught three passes for 51 yards, also had an interception on defense.

Peru 53, Ticonderoga 7 ThereÕ s little doubt Peru is the team to beat in the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference this football season. The Indians ripped Ticonderoga, 53-7, in action Sept. 14.

Zane Bazzano scored four touchdowns and Jozua Cote three as Peru rolled to a 40-0 halftime lead.

Ticonderoga got on the scoreboard in the third quarter when Jarryn Granger bulled into the end zone from 4 yards away.

Cameron Wright led Ti, running for 61 yards on 22 carries. Michael Graney threw for another 76 yards. The Sentinels managed 173 yards in total offense, while Peru posted nearly 500.

Rainier Garnica hauled in a pass for Moriah during the Viking’s 20-14 lost to Saranac Lake in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference football play Sept. 13.

Dirty Dog Fun Run to benefit K9 rescue group Obstacle race to benefit search and rescue K-9 group

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE Ñ The Champlain Valley Search & Rescue K9 Unit (CVK9) wants people to get muddy for a good cause.

The all-volunteer non-profit search and rescue unit based out of Keeseville assists local agencies with wildland search and rescue for lost children, hikers or hunters, and have been called all around the country following natural disasters for urban search and rescue, as well as cadaver recovery. Ò The year we had all the tornados we were called all around the country. We would touch down at home, then get called out again,Ó said Shannon Bresett, one of the founding members of the group.

The group has been around for several years, but officially became a not-for-profit, and incorporated in 2009. They operate totally on a volunteer basis. They currently have six dogs either in service or in training, and two who have retired. In this area, Bresett says, the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is the agency first called out for K-9 services, but her unit is often called in soon after.

“The air dogs are the first guys we send out, like when a child has been missing for a half hour or so,Ó Bresette said. Ò After that comes the tracking dogs.Ó As a last resort the unit calls on Inca, their cadaver dog. Inca often gets the most work of the group.

While they operate primarily under mutual aid in Clinton, Essex, Franklin and Warren Counties, they are not eligible for the same grants that fire departments receive, since they are not a tax-based municipality. Ò Fund-raising is an integral part of our budget. A majority of our money does come from fund-raising,Ó Bresette said.

When they were brainstorming for fund-raising ideas, the idea of an adventure challenge race came up, and the inaugural CVK9 Dirty Dog Fun Run was born. Ò Adventure races were just coming up, they werenÕ t a household thing yet,Ó said Brittany Taylor, fundraising chair for the group. Ò It lets people know about what we do, plus it raises some money for a good cause.Ó The race will take place at Titus Mountain Family Ski Center on Oct. 19. ItÕ s a 7 kilometer (about 4 and a half mile) race up and down the lower slopes of the mountain, and will traverse 19 obstacles including mud, climbing and endurance obstacles. There will also be events for spectators, plus craft and food vendors, and a live band. All participants receive a race T-shirt, and finishers will receive a special finishers dog

SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE. The State encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure.

In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid office, there are government agencies and non-profit organizations that you may contact forinformation about possible options, including trying to work with your lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the toll-free helpline maintained by the New York State Banking Department at 1-877-226-5697 or visit the Department's website at www.dfs.ny.gov.

FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS Be careful of people who approach you with offers to "save" your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner's distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services.
