NHL’s Flyers to train in Lake Placid

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

LAKE PLACID Ñ The Olympic Center in Lake Placid will once again host a National Hockey League team for its preseason training camp.

The Philadelphia Flyers will host a team Ò bonding campÓ starting Thursday, Sept. 19, at the home of the 1932 and 1980 Olympic Winter Games.

Professional hockey teams using the Olympic Center in Lake Placid for a

training or getaway camp is nothing new, as several East Coast teams have done so for many years, including the New York Rangers, Montreal Canadians and Boston Bruins, who trained in Lake Placid at the start of the 2010-11 season in which they won the Stanley Cup championships. Ò We knew we were bringing it back to Lake Placid,Ó said Bruins Trainer Don DelNegro, who has called Lake Placid his second home for the past 26

years back in July of 2011.

The team will be coming to Lake Placid after holding a training camp in Philadelphia earlier in the week. Practices start Thursday, Sept. 19, with a skate from 3 to 5 p.m. on the USA Rink.

On Friday and Sunday, Sept. 20 and Sept. 22, the team will practice from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on both the USA Rink and in the iconic 1980 Herb Brooks Arena, home of the Miracle on Ice. Practice times are subject to change.

SARANAC LAKE Ñ BluSeed Studios prepares to go back to school by hosting a series of art classes for the younger artist and several family workshops during the upcoming fall and winter season.

The new season of familyoriented classes were inspired by the BluSeed community members who wanted a variety of classes to satisfy the artistic goals of family members of all ages. Ò We had several BluSeedling classes last year for the younger kids and itÕ s the families who requested an art class that they all could get to participate in,Ó BluSeed Office Coordinator Michelle Hannon said.

The first of the classes will be an intermediate pottery class for high school age youth called Ò Pottery Puddies.Ó Two students who formerly took a pottery class with the BluSeedlings requested a personalized class for themselves and their peers. Ò They wanted a class just for them that would be right after school and one they could take with kids their age separate from the adult class,Ó Hannon said.

The class will begin Sept. 26 and run every Thursday through Nov. 21 from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. The class, including material fees, is $200 and will be taught by local artist, Teresa Reid. Ò They will learn all of the same things as the adults are learning in their class but it will be shorter so kids will still have the time in the evening they need to get things done and complete schoolwork,Ó Hannon said. Ò ItÕ s also an opportunity for them to have a class just for their friends and kids their age to learn and hangout.Ó CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

Coming back: Big Tupper to open for 2013-14 ski season

TUPPER LAKE Ñ The Board of Directors for ARISE announced Sept. 13 that they plan on reopening Big Tupper Ski Area for the 2013-2014 ski season.

ARISE and Big Tupper Management recently met to discuss the overall operation and to review the financial challenges they are faced with.

ARISE Chairman Jim LaValley said that this years operation will be handled entirely by volunteers. Ò Even though the operation is all volunteer, the people involved bring incredible experience and knowledge about the ski industry,Ó LaValley said. Ò And even though the ski experience will be a no frills operation, it will provide a great ski experience.Ó This season, Big Tupper will not be selling pre-season passes, but will wait for enough snow to arrive before offering any ticket sales.

Day passes will cost $25, and ARISE is working on discount pricing for books of 5 or 10 passes. Ò Because we do not have snowmaking, we thought the best financial approach for the skiing public is to wait until we have enough snow,Ó ARISE Board Member Russ Cronin, Jr. said. Ò We are hoping for a great skiing winter.Ó Ò Our lifts have been inspected, trails will be mowed, and our application to the Adirondack Park Agency has been submitted,Ó LaValley said. Ò We were left with enough money to get ourselves to the point of opening. And, we will

be holding a couple of fundraising events to help with some of the larger expenses, including insurance and grooming.Ó After ARISE operated the ski area for three seasons and was forced to close last winter, the community is already showing its excitement as word has begun to spread about opening this season. Ò ARISEÕ s mission is to provide the community of Tupper Lake with an effort to improve the local economy,Ó LaValley said. Ò It became abundantly clear last year that Big Tupper Ski Area has a huge impact and we have to do everything we can to keep it operating while waiting for the Adirondack Club project to work through the Article 78 lawsuit.Ó LaValley added that ARISE would be announcing some other economic initiatives within the next 60 days that will bring additional positive news to the community. Ò We believe that the Article 78 lawsuit will be over in the very near future, and now is the time to begin planning for other business inquiries that have already begun to develop as a result of the Adirondack Club and Resort,Ó he said.

This season, Steve Stevenson will serve as coordinator, while Don Dew, Jr., And Kate Bencze will share the responsibilities of being administrative and volunteer managers. Cliff Lamere will continue as lift operations manager, and Bill Mozdzier will continue as trails manager.

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. Ò 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.

Big Tupper Ski Area will reopen for the 2013-14 season under volunteer leadership.

County’s Horace Nye Nursing Home sale nears completion 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

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, 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. Ò 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.

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

Guest viewpoint

Back to school time is a second chance for adult learners

Disturbed

To the Valley News:

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 Valley News to use its own column to separate themselves from their embarrassing Boss--unless, of course, they agree with him.

Jeff Kleiman Elizabethtown

Pressline

from page 4 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.

amilies across the United States are preparing to send their children back to school with new book bags and school supplies. Back to school is also a time for some of the 30 million American adults who cannot read beyond a third grade level to consider taking steps to overcome their literacy challenges.

Many of these adults find ways to hide this fact from their coworkers and friendsÑ even their own families. 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.

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.

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-asa-second-language (ESL), and math skills. We also provide literacy programs in local correctional facilities- Moriah Shock, Adirondack in Ray Brook, Bare Hill in Malone, and we recently partnered with Franklin County Jail as well.

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. Our mission is to enable people over the age of 16 to achieve personal goals through student-centered literacy tutoring. This past year we supported more than 140 adult learners, and trained more than forty volunteer tutors. 67% of our students

showed academic improvement by at least one grade level.

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.

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 (TASC), 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.

In order to support these adult learners, Literacy Volunteers relies heavily upon dedicated volunteer tutors who provide one-on-one or small group instruction to native and non-native English speakers. 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. Literacy Volunteers will have three tutor trainings across its two-county service region. At the main office in Port Henry, an orientation will be held on Oct. 1 at 1 p.m. There will be an orientation in Malone on Oct. 7 at 6 p.m., and in the Tri-Lakes region, the orientation will be held on Oct. 15 at 5 p.m.

For more information please contact your local Literacy Volunteer office at the following phone number: Port Henry - 546-3008; Tri-Lakes Ð 891-5567; and Malone Ð 483-9366.

If you know anyone who could benefit from our services, then suggest they call their local Literacy Volunteers office.

Center creates literary map SARANAC LAKE Ñ Many famous works of literature have Adirondack links, some of them surprising. The Adirondack Center for Writing has created an Adirondack Literary Map that shows where these passages are all set. This map includes everything from a Nancy Drew novel set in Lake Placid and Ò The Spy Who Loved Me,Ó in Glens Falls to classics like Ò The Sweet Hereafter,Ó celebrating the intersection of writing and place within the Park.

When Sylvia Plath broke her leg skiing at Mount Pisgah in Saranac Lake, she sent this telegram home to her family: Ò BRINGING FABULOUS FRACTURED FIBULA NO PAIN JUST TRICKY TO MANIPULATE WHILST CHARLESTONING.Ó Whether this was before or after she wrote scenes of Ò The Bell Jar,Ó from the Adirondacks is up for debate.

If you live in the Adirondacks or are planning a trip here, the Literary Map anchors the work of writers like Plath, Theodore Dreiser, and Joyce Carol Oates to their inspiration in the Park. In addition to visiting writers, it features prominent local authors like Russell Banks and

Joe Bruchac, and the work of any published writer influenced directly or indirectly by the Adirondacks. We also list pieces by the many local authors keeping our literary tradition strong, like Mason Smith and childrenÕ s authors Gary and Justin VanRiper.

For many of these writers, the Adirondacks have been a place of inspiration and healing; to others, a source of hardship and painful memory. Our landscape has always been one of heightened senses, and the art of writing is more lively and diverse today than it has ever been.

The Adirondack Literary Map is an intuitive way to see the park through a literary lens -perfect for an afternoon drive, or a family vacation tracing the footsteps of literary giants. And if neither of those fit into your schedule, simply take a virtual tour, and see how the Adirondacks inspire some of the nationÕ s best writing.

NYCO hopes to swap “Forever Wild” land with New York State NYCO proposes to give up 1,500 acres in exchange for 200

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com LEWIS Ñ Essex CountyÕ s second largest private employer, NYCO Minerals, has a plan to ensure another 10 years worth of mining at their Lewis mine, but it will require a land swap with the state.

NYCO is bordered by state land. A small parcel of that land, a land-locked 200 acres known simply as Lot 8, holds enough Wollastonite to keep the mine operational another 10 years, NYCO officials believe.

But because itÕ s in the Adirondack Park, that state land falls under the stateÕ s, Ò Forever Wild,Ó provision. A change in the stateÕ s constitution would be required to approve a land swap.

In exchange for those 200 acres, NYCO is offering the state 1,500 of their property. The property they are offering has considerable road frontage, and is currently acting as a buffer, preventing hikers, hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts access to the massive Jay Mountain wilderness to the east and west.

The NYCO parcels, along with road frontage,

NYCO has already gotten streams. those positive votes from the legislature, in Only a positive vote by two consecutive 2012 and 2013, and the measure will now state legislatures, and a yes vote on a state- come up to a state-wide vote. Ò The 200 acres was a parcel of property that the state got for back taxes,Ó said Theresa Sayward, retired New York State Assemblywoman. Ò The state is not giving up something that was purchased for environmental reasons.Ó Sayward has long been a proponent of the land swap.

An exposed vein of Wollastonite can be seen commanding the exposed rock face just 25 feet from Lot 8. In some places there are only about 10 feet of Ò over-story,Ó or material that would need to be removed in order to begin mining.

As part of the deal, when NYCO has mined all the Wollastonite from the 200 acres, they will Ò reclaimÓ the land, filling it in and placing topsoil, then seeding the ground. They will then turn the 200 acres back over to the state, along with the 1,500 from the land

swap.

Several acres of land on the NYCO mine land have already been reclaimed and are indistinguishable from the untouched land around it. Ò The time to do it, if we want to have access to Lot 8, is now,Ó said Mark Buckley, Environmental Health and Safety Officer with NYCO. Ò There may be a million tons there.Ó Buckley said that while the pit they are currently mining holds about 10 years of reserves, their buyers like to see 20 years worth of reserves in order to consider a mine viable.

Without the extra 10 years of reserves, NYCO could face problems in years to come finding buyers for their product.

NYCO is mounting a media campaign in order to get their message out to the voters.

The measure, which will be on the ballot as Proposition 5, will be voted on in the upcoming elections on Nov 5.

Along with bipartisan support in the state legislature for two consecutive years, numerous other agencies have come out in favor of the land swap.

In a press release, William Janeway, Executive Director of the Adirondack Council said, Ò The proposed land swap now exceeds our standard for supporting Constitutional Amendments involving the Forever Wild clause.Ó According to the Council, the 1,500 acres the state would receive comprise better habitat for fish and wildlife, three miles of streams and has considerably more ecological value than the 200 acres which would be given up.

The measure is also being supported by the United Steelworkers, the AFL-CIO, the Adirondack Association of Towns and Villages, and local and state politicians including Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

NYCO employs more than 100 people in their mining operations. In several instances employees have been working in the mines for generations.

Wollastonite is used in paint, plastics used in the automobile industry, brake pads and linings, ceramics, construction materials and many more applications. There are only two Wollastonite mines currently operating in the United States.

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 Public 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.

12, the New York State Police, including SORT (Special Operations Response Team) and canine team members continued the searched near the Round Pond/Dix Mountain area. Fleishman said the large scale ground search was scheduled to continue on Friday, Sept. 13.

Forest Ranger Brian Dubay said they have been showing pho-

tos of Haworth to everyone they meet on the trails and are asking anyone to alert authorities if they see someone resembling Haworth.

“We are asking for the public’s help to find him,” Dubay said.

Anyone with information about Haworth or who might have seen him are asked to call the New York State Police in Ray Brook at 897-2000.

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,

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

September 21, 2013

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.

APA approves Barber campground expansion in Westport

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com RAY BROOK Ñ Members of the Adirondack Park Agency (APA) Board of Commissioners Friday, Sept. 13 unanimously approved a permit for the expansion of the Barber Homestead Park campground in the town of Westport.

The 7-acre campground, located at 68 Barber Lane, is part of a 90-acre parcel owned by the Barber family. It is about 2 miles north of the hamlet of Westport and just north of Camp Dudley. While the property includes 800 feet of shoreline on Lake Champlain, the campground does not have frontage on the lake. Campers, however, are able to use the lake access for launching canoes and kayaks.

The Barber permit application, APA Project 2013-111, was discussed during the Regulatory Programs Committee meeting Thursday, Sept.

12 and unanimously passed by Committee members. APA Environmental Program Specialist Tom Saehrig gave a PowerPoint presentation about the project.

Barber Homestead Park, LLC first applied

Wine Dinner schedules

for a campground expansion permit through the town of Westport Planning Board. Members of that Board said the APA needed to address some concerns before issuing a permit, according to Saehrig. The property is located within a Rural Use designation, yellow on the multicolored APA zoning map.

There are currently 40 campsites at the Barber Homestead Campground, and the expansion allows for an additional 14 sites Ñ seven drive-in, drive-out sites and seven pull-in, pullout sites. Ò What does that mean?Ó Commissioner Arthur Lussi asked Saehrig about the drive-in, drive-out sites. Ò ItÕ s a different style of campsite, but itÕ s 14 in total,Ó Saehrig said, adding that drive-in, driveout sites are for larger RVs. The APA had first issued a permit for the campground in 1990, and it was one of the first RV campgrounds in the Adirondack Park. During his presentation, Saehrig showed maps and images of the property, plus photos of current campsites, Barber Lane, which was recently paved, and vegetation screening of the camp-

SaturdayÕ s ÒJ . Lohr Wine DinnerÓ dinner begins serving at 7 p.m. The family-style buffet will feature summer offerings from nearby Adirondack farms, paired with select J. Lohr Vineyard wines. Before dinner will be a 30-minute reception in the summit round house with light hors dÕ oeuvres with wine selection.

The Castle Dinners are prepared by Centerplate executive chef Jennifer Moody. MoodyÕ s recipe for Paillards of Beef Tenderloin with Bucheron and Watercress Salad was recently featured in the ÒJ . Lohr Vineyard TableÓ cookbook. The book features a collection of 21 remarkable recipes from notable chefs across the country to pair with J. Lohr Estates FalconÕ s Perch Pinot Noir wine.

Castle Dinners are $99 each and include a buffet, which features three stations each paired with a specific wine, admission up the Whiteface VeteransÕ Memorial Highway a glass of wine, gratuity, dessert, transportation and a gift bag.

ground from the road.

On April 23, Westport Planning Board members said the permit was Ò approvable,Ó according to Saehrig. On June 26, they said, Ò Noise and trespassing have been brought to our attention by neighboring property owners and these issues should be addressed by the APA in issuing the permit.Ó In all, there were eight letters voicing concerns regarding the existing onsite wastewater treatment system, local approvals, overall intensity guidelines, noise, dust odor, trespassing, lake access, the cultural resource evaluation process and the number of proposed recreational vehicle sites.

There were also 13 letters of support for the project, describing the positive assets of the campground. The applicant submitted two letters responding to the concerns raised by nearby landowners.

After looking at those concerns, the APA staff recommended approving the permit with conditions.

Staff consulted the town of Westport and state Department of Health regarding waste-

water concerns. The campgroundÕ s wastewater is served by WestportÕ s municipal wastewater system. Ò The proposed would not overload that system,Ó Saehrig said.

APA staff could find no problems with noise at the campground. Ò We have a number of letters saying that this campground is one of the quietest campgrounds,Ó Saehrig said, adding that most of the people who stay there are retirees. Ò We donÕ t believe that these people cause a lot of noise at the campground.Ó Twenty-seven of the 40 sites are currently occupied by campers who stay at the campground all season. Ò Yes, some of the campers are seasonal and renew on an annual basis,Ó Saehrig said.

The Barber Homestead Park is located on the Barber Homestead Century Farm. The property was settled by the Barbers in 1785 and continues to be owned by the Barber family. For more information about the campground, visit online at www.barberhomesteadpark.com.
