Include the next generation in Veterans Day

T

his Monday, Nov. 11, is Veterans Day „ a day set aside to recognize and honor those who served this great nation, past and present, in times of both war and peace.

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, an armistice, or temporary suspension of fighting, was declared between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War. Observed as Armistice Day beginning the following year, Nov. 11 became a legal federal holiday in the United States in 1938.

Following the unprecedented mobilization of troops during World War II and then the Korean War, Armistice Day was changed to Veterans Day, dedicated to all American veterans „ living or dead „ who served this country.

With more than 21 million American veterans „ nearly 15 percent of the population „ most of us have a close relationship with someone who has served. Some have family members, spouses, children or parents who are or once were in the military. Still others holding this newspaper have served themselves.

We want to take this opportunity to wholeheartedly thank these individuals for their selflessness, courage and dedication to our homeland.

You are all heroes.

But those words really donÍ t go far enough.

To truly show our gratitude, we should all take the time to attend a Veterans Day observation. More importantly, we should include our children in the ceremony.

They need to know that Veterans Day is much more than simply a federal holiday off from work and school. They need to know that the sacrifices made by previous generations are what allow us to enjoy the freedoms we so often take for granted today.

We are a proud country with a long history of defending our rights and way of life. We should instill that national pride in the next generation.

Attending a local observance, experiencing a 21-gun salute, hearing the somber playing of ñ Taps,î will all go a long way toward accomplishing that goal.

Observations around the region will not be hard to find. Here is a quick rundown of observances planned in our readership area: •In Warrensburg, American Legion Post 446 will be conducting ceremonies at 10:45 a.m.

Nov. 11 at the Warrensburg Cemetery off Hudson Street. The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4821 of Warrensburg is holding its veterans day ceremonies at 11 a.m. in Frederick Flynn Memo-

rial Park on River Street.

•In Chestertown, the Chestertown-based American Legion and VFW are combining forces for a Veterans Day ceremony at 11 a.m. Nov. 11 at the new Veterans Memorial Plaza in front of the Chester Municipal Center.

•In North Creek, the Adirondack Tri-County Nursing and Rehabilitation Center on State Route 28 in North Creek will host a Veterans Day memorial service at 2 p.m. Nov. 11. The service is open to the public.

•In Crown Point, the First Congregational Church is holding its third annual Veterans Recognition and Appreciation as part of its 9:30 a.m. worship service on Nov. 10.

•In Ticonderoga, veterans will be honored during TiconderogaÍ s seventh annual ñ memory walkî Nov. 10 at 1 p.m. in the west Pine Section of Valley View Cemetery. Also in Ticonderoga The Ti Elks will hold a Veterans Day dinner 4:30-7 p.m. It will be free for all veterans and donations will be appreciated by non-veterans.

Fort Ti will also recognize veterans with a living history event, Saturday, Nov. 9, 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

• In Wadhams, the Veterans Organizations of Essex County, through the Veterans Cemetery Committee, are conducting an observance of Veterans Day at the Essex County Veterans Cemetery on Nov. 11, beginning at 11 a.m.

•In Keene, American Legion Marcy Post 1312 will conduct a traditional Veterans Day Ceremony at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11 at the Veterans Monument Park on Norton Cemetery Road.

The ceremony will be followed by the formal dedication of the granite WWII Monument and a memorial granite bench.

•In Willsboro, the ninth annual Veterans Day Appreciation Program will be held Nov. 11 at 4:30 p.m. at the Willsboro Central School Cafeteria with dinner to follow.

•In Keeseville, VFW Post 1505 will host a dinner for veterans Nov. 11. The event is free for all vets and a donation will be asked for all guests. A ham dinner will be served at 5 p.m.

•In Plattsburgh, the Clinton Community College Veterans Club will hold a Veterans Day Observation Nov. 11 at the college beginning at noon and SUNY Plattsburgh Army ROTC is holding an open house from 11:30 a.m. - 3 p.m. in Sibley Hall, Room 309 C. If you have the opportunity, be sure to pay it forward by including children in Veterans Day ceremonies. And, donÍ t forget to thank a vet this Monday for his or her service. „

Letters to the Editor

Moriah chamber lauded I would personally like to recognize the Moriah Chamber of Commerce for their excellent job they have done in reorganizing and establishing a main street presence in Port Henry.

Under the leadership of chamber President Tim Bryant, they have done a great job in recruiting new members and businesses and being able to provide members/businesses with needed services and information. I look forward to seeing the chamber grow in the months and years to come.

As we as a community move forward, we can be confident that we have a solid chamber of commerce in our community. I encourage all local businesses to check out and join the chamber.

Each member of the Farm Bureau ñ Circle of Friendsî has demonstrated an understanding of the important topics affecting farmers and the considerable impact agriculture has on our economy and quality of life in every region of the state.

New York Farm Bureau, the stateÍ s largest general farm advocacy organization, works closely with the legislature to strengthen and enhance agriculture in New York State. We have made significant gains over the past year, including the passage of the 2% agricultural assessment cap to rein in rising property taxes, and this would not have been possible without significant support from key legislators, such as Sen. Little. With her continued leadership, agriculture will remain one of New YorkÍ s most important economic engines.

We are pleased to provide the ñ Circle of Friendsî designation to Sen. Little to thank her for her hard work on behalf of farmers in the North Country and across New York State.

Tim Garrison Moriah Town Councilman

Dean Norton, president New York Farm Bureau

To the Times of Ti:

Support appreciated To the Times of Ti: We, the Stacy/Bolton family, would like to thank family, friends and community for their support and participation in the benefit dinner held for us on Oct. 11. We thank everyone who donated items,time, donations, prayers and support for us.

A special thank you to Wendy Shaw who made it all happen (you are amazing and will never be forgotten).

We will be paying it forward someday! The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart! We have not only seen and touched, but have felt the love and support from everyone! We feel very blessed to have you all in our lives. Thank you so very much.

Farm Bureau lauds senator To the Times of Ti:

To the Times of Ti: I am writing to your readers regarding lyme disease. Discovered in 1975 this disease has become prevalent in the northeast.

In New York, Columbia and Greene counties have the highest rate per capita in the country. I am a transplant from Long Island where a lot of people I know have contracted lyme disease and have been completely misdiagnosed by their doctors with a host of illnesses from psychiatric disorders to rheumatoid arthritis with dozens of illnesses in between (There are over 300 illnesses that mimic lyme disease).

Even after being treated with antibiotics upwards of 25 percent of patients still experience lyme disease symptoms months, even years, after they contracted the disease.

We just donÍ t know enough about this most debilitating disease. I can assure you that there are many people walking around out there that are suffering from whatÍ s called ï Í Lyme Flare ups.Í Í People have the impression that you need to see a bulls eye or rash on their body which is simply not true. All I can say is talk to your doctor if you are experiencing flu like symptoms.

If your are as fortunate as I am to have a doctor who actually listens to you and is willing to think outside the box you may just have Lyme Disease. Its a simple blood test „ have it done.

We are lucky to have at least two people representing us regarding this issue, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and Congressman Chris Gibson. Their offices have been working closely with the center for disease control in Atlanta (CDC) to figure out how to control this disease. Last year over 300,000 cases were reported in the US thatÍ s 10 times whatÍ s been reported in previous years. That sounds like an epidemic to me. Get yourself checked out along with your children. Why go on suffering?

Harold Kelly Preston Hollow

Director hopes to inspire To the Times of Ti: I would like to take this opportunity to thank our community for all the support they have showed to the Royal Winter Pageant. This is my third year putting on the show and there are a few who I need to thank for all their help.

To my local businesses for their donations towards the pageant, Walmart, Wagon Wheel, A Cut Above, and The Windchill.

To StewartÍ s, Rite-aid, Walmart, and Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union for allowing the girls to do their community service by asking donations for the Back Pack Program - feeding our local children. The girls raised $1,174.51 for that program. I would like to thank our community who donated to help that program and by showing our girls the support.

I would like to thank all my parents, the girls, Dan Cross, Chris Flugmaker, volunteers and Ticonderoga Central School for all the hard work it takes to put on this show. Our girls work so hard and practice from September to December every weekend, collecting bottles, donating the baskets and food items, and doing the community service.

Every year this show is getting a little bigger and better. I hope to inspire these girls to keep helping others, staying positive, be respectful and responsible, and to show leadership skills. This is the way I want to help motivate our youth. By keeping them busy and focused, by teaching them how to be young adults, and by teaching them life skills. Our community has always pulled together when times have gotten tough and right now our children need us to help keep things positive and hopeful. By showing our girls that those who volunteer and help others are those who are making a positive future for all.

So, thank you again to all who inspire our children. The Royal Winter Pageant is Friday, Dec. 6, at 7 p.m. at the Ticonderoga High School. Tickets are $5 for adults, $3 for students, and 5 and under are free. There will be themed baskets for auction and new this year will be cakes, pies and a bread auction. $1 per ticket for auctions. All donations help pay for the cost of the pageant.

I am pleased to announce that New York Farm Bureau has recently named Sen. Betty Little to our annual ñ Circle of Friendsî list. This legislative award is granted based upon her record of legislative support for New York agriculture and the Farm Bureau. New York Farm Bureau is a non-partisan organization and does not endorse elected officials or political candidates.

Sen. Little joins a number of other legislators from both sides of the aisle in the Senate and Assembly who have a superior voting record on issues of concern to New York farmers during the 2013 state legislative session.

Beware of lyme disease

And above all „ check your body for ticks.

I have had lyme disease and I can assure you its no walk in the park.

Merger From page 1

each school board will decide whether to pursue a merger. If they agree to a merger, the issue then goes to voters in each district as a straw vote. If voters OK the merger plan it goes to the state education department, where the commissioner of education will ask for a second vote of both districts.

A single no vote at any point kills a possible merger.

A merger would save the new, combined district almost $1 million a year, according to the report. ñ Considering incentive operating aid, additional building aid, savings from staff reductions and budget efficiencies, loss of BOCES aid, and the cost of leveling up staff salaries, it is estimated that a merged district would realize savings and additional revenues of $12,225,241 for the first 14 years after a merger,” the report states.

A merger would also lower tax rates, the study said. ñ Using 50 percent of the incentive operating aid and the other savings outlined, it is estimated that the true value tax rate for the merged district in the first year would be $9.46 per thousand ($1,000 of assessed value), a reduction of $2.27 per thousand (-19.4 percent) in Crown Point and a reduction of 83 cents per thousand (-8.1 percent) in Ticonderoga,î it reads. ñ Translating the full-value tax rate to an assessed value tax rate shows tax rates of $9.18 in the three townships that are currently in the Crown Point district (Crown Point, Moriah and Ticonderoga), $11.70 in Hague and $9.73 in Ticonderoga,î it reports.

Elementary students would remain in their respective schools in a merger, the report recommends, with grades 6-8 attending Ti Middle School and 9-12 attending Ti High School. The Crown Point school, while adequate for elementary students, is not large enough to handle middle and high school enrollments, the report said.

Bus garages should be maintained in each community, the report said.

Students, particularly in high school, would benefit in a merger from increased course offerings, the report found. ñ High school course offerings show a solid academic program for students from both Crown Point and Ticonderoga,î the report reads. ñ However, Ticonderoga, being larger, has more sections of many courses than Crown Point. Each district has some unique offerings that would benefit students in the other district (i.e., calculus and statistics for college credit in Crown Point; Ticonderoga offers French in addition to Spanish and offers college credit in both languages as well as AP courses). ñ In a merged district, it would be possible to offer all high school courses currently available in both districts and reduce some staff positions, while maintaining reasonable (maximum of 25 students) class sizes,î the report said. ñ In addition to offering all of the courses currently available in both high schools and keeping maximum class sizes at 25, a merged high school would have the opportunity to offer even more elective courses.î The same is true of interscholastic athletics and extracurricular activities, according to the report. ñ Secondary students in both districts have a solid array of interscholastic and extra-curricular activities from which to choose,î the report reads. ñ There are some unique offerings in each district that, following a merger, could be offered to students of the previous other district.î Crown Point now offers cheerleading and boys soccer, which Ti does not. Ticonderoga offers boys and girls cross country, boys and girls indoor and outdoor track, football and bowling, which Crown Point does not. Ticonderoga also offers junior varsity competition, which Crown Point does not. ñ The merging of inter-scholastic athletic programs in a merged school district is an activity that is often met with mixed emotions,î the report states. ñ On the positive side, economies can be realized through the elimination of duplicate coaching positions as sports teams are consolidated. In addition, there are often opportunities to create additional sports teams in which the students can participate. In particular, it is noted that there are no junior varsity teams in Crown Point in the traditional sports of baseball, basketball, soccer and softball. On the other hand, the competition for the students to compete on a meaningful basis also increases.î A merger would eliminate several positions. There would be a single superintendent, business manager, special education chair, athletic director, building and grounds head, transportation director and more. There would be fewer principals and support staff. Those cuts would save more than $200,000, according to the report.

Teachers would not be cut in a merger. Both districts have clauses in their contracts that preclude layoffs in the event of a merger. Over time, though, there would be fewer teaching positions through attrition.

Ti to budget for building maintenance, repairs

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The first time, Ticonderoga’s town budget will include a dedicated fund for building maintenance and repair in 2014.

An 18-month review of town-owned buildings has been completed by a private firm with recommendations for the future.

Some of those recommendations will be included in the 2014 town budget.

The report was prepared by Alfandre Architecture of New Paltz. ñ The bid process and study took about 18 monthsî Supervisor Deb Malaney said, ñ and we now have the information to address current and long-term building needs and maintenance schedules and to set aside adequate capital reserves.î Alfandre was directed to prioritize needs and provide preliminary cost estimates for the historic Community Building, 1888 Building, armory, highway garage and police station. The report focused on three areas „ identifying structural, maintenance and repair needs in all buildings; best utilization of space, including offices and staff; and relocation of the police department.

“Our first step is to create a capital reserve account in the next (2014) budget for repairs and maintenance,î the supervisor said.

“The study has identified areas in need of repair. We need to

make those repairs and create a maintenance schedule for the future.î The study also took a detailed look at the Ti police station.

Citing structural concerns with the current police office on Burgoyne Road, town officials have been searching for a new police headquarters for the last five years.

Ticonderoga officials have long discussed moving the police, but accelerated the discussion in December 2009 when structural issues arose at the police headquarters. The nearly 70-year-old concrete block structure developed a large crack from the foundation up the center of the back wall raising questions about the buildingÍ s future.

The police commission previously investigated several possibilities for a new police building and found them lacking. The armory was excluded for police use since it houses youth activities and police donÍ t want children and criminals in the same building. The downstairs of the Community Building was excluded because of lack of space and parking. The former Rite Aid proved to be too expensive. ñ I also requested Alfandre assess moving police to the Community Building and relocating some town office departments to the armory,î Malaney said. ñ However, cost of renovations, historic building restrictions and safety issues proved to be too expensive.î Alfandre’s recommendation for cost effective use and efficiency is to eventually consolidate four town departments and

equipment „ police, highway, public works and grounds „ in a new facility at the site of the current highway garage on Race Track Road. ñ The deteriorated metal highway garage has long outlived its 25-year life and the police department has structural issues,î Malaney said.

A new building would be costly, the supervisor acknowledged, and is not feasible at this time. ñ WeÍ re always looking for grant and funding opportunities,î Malaney said. ñ Consolidation (of departments) would qualify the town for shared service grants and funding, which would be identified and applied for by the town’s professional grant writers at PRIDE, Essex County Planning Department and Alfandre. ñ Grant funding a long process, but weÍ ll pursue it,î she said.

If funding is found for a new municipal building to house those departments, the current police building could be sold and returned to the tax rolls, Malaney said.

The police situation could sort itself out, Malaney said. A proposal by North Country Community College to convert the former LoweÍ s building into an applied technology center includes an offer to house Ti police there. ñ The NCC College-LoweÍ s project offered a home to the police rent free for up to 10 years with no construction costs and no hidden fees,î Malaney said. ñ This could potentially be an enormous taxpayer savings and is being factored into the current long range planning.î

Backpack program gets grant TICONDEROGA „ Ticonderoga Central School recently received a grant from the Glenn & Carol Pearsall Adirondack Foundation supporting the schoolÍ s backpack program.

This new initiative sends eligible students at Ticonderoga Elementary-Middle School home each Friday with backpacks filled with nutritious foods to help them eat healthy over the weekend. This grant from the Pearsall Adirondack Foundation will enable Ticonderoga Central School to provide this additional nutrition to more students.

Because of the support the program has received from donors and charitable organizations like the Pearsall Foundation, the backpack program at Ticonderoga Central has been able

to grow and serve more eligible students. The program, which began in January 2013 with 30 students, grew to 45 in April, and in November will expand again to 60 eligible students.

The food for the backpacks is purchased through the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York. The cost to sponsor one child in this program for an entire school year is only $167.

The grant was underwritten by the Glenn and Carol Pearsall Adirondack Foundation, ñ Dedicated to improving the quality of life for year-round residents of the Adirondack Park.î Information can be found online at www.pearsallfoundation.org.

Ticonderoga Eagles celebrate 15th anniversary New York, Vermont Eagles join in event

By William G. Dolback

timesofti@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A “flock” of Eagles landed in downtown Ticonderoga recently. No, it wasnÍ t the winged kind, but the human type.

Members of the New York and Vermont Fraternal Order of Eagles came to help the local Aerie (#4410) celebrate its 15th anniversary.

Not unlike the mythological Phoenix that regenerates itself, the Ticonderoga Aerie has re-organized itself a few times. The first Ticonderoga Aeries was organized in March, 1905 with more than 30 birds (as they were called at the time). The new officers were well represented by the leading members of the business and professional community: W.T. Bennett, George Luther, C.A. Wheeler, Ralph Powers, W. J. Hayes, Daniel Ryan, I. Rothschild, I. Ledger, Louis Forcier, A.A. Gallant, Frank Blanchard and Thomas Corbett. Dr. E. F. Preston, one of TiconderogaÍ s foremost physician and surgeon of the time, was also one of its charter members.

Their Lodge rooms were located in the Maxwell Block, South Main Street. Today, this located would be across the street from the post office that is located on Champlain Avenue. At this time, files do not show when the first Ticonderoga Aerie disbanded, but it rose again and was re-chartered in July 1998 with over 60 members and again about three years ago. The current lodge rooms are located on the second

floor of the Knights of Columbus Building on Montcalm Street.

The FOE is an international fraternal organization founded in 1898 at Seattle, Wash., by a group of six theater owners. There are over 1,400 Aeries located in the US and Canada. ñ The Eagles are hometown builders.î They support those that protect and serve and fund several areas in medical research (diabetes, spinal cord injuries, kidney disease and AlzheimerÍ s.) Their organization ñ foundedî and promoted MotherÍ s Day in the U.S. and served as a driving force in the ñ founding of the U.S. Social Security Program.î A few of the noteworthy members have been Presidents Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt, Warren Harding, Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Regan. Other well knowns are Max Baer, champion boxer, Tony Stewart and Sam Hornish, race car drivers, and Billy Ray Cyrus and Tony Orlando, musical performers. The womenÍ s auxiliary had enrolled members of not, including Bess Truman, Eleanor Roosevelt and Virginia Graham.

New York State President Garrett Smith, aide Joseph McConnel and local Aerie President Arnold LaFountain toured Ticonderoga during their visit with a ñ show and tellî presentation of the townÍ s long historical past.

After the tour, the gathered group had a barbecue and honored Edward ñ Budî Dolback, past local Aerie president and current New York State FOE trustee.

William G. Dolback, is president of the Ticonderoga Historical Society and town of Ticonderoga historian.

Animal abuse cases perplex local officials Who decides, who pays for neglected animals?

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com MORIAH „ A recent case of animal abuse in Essex is raising questions in Moriah.

More than 40 malnourished horses were seized and their owner, Shelley Wing of Essex, arrested recently. She was charged with 41 counts of failing to provide sustenance for them.

Those horses are now under the care of a veterinarian at county expense. ñ Essex County, as required by law, accepted the responsibility for providing temporary shelter for the horses which were determined by independent veterinarians to be seriously

neglected and in need of immediate feed and care,î County Manager Dan Palmer said in the press release.

The county responsibility is news to Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava, whose town has spent thousands of dollars to care for allegedlyabused animals while investigations took place. ñ IÍ m confused,î Scozzafava said. ñ I canÍ t get clarification from the state. Who is responsible for these fees? In the past Moriah has paid for them. Why is the county paying now?î Scozzafava related a recent incident in Moriah. A resident was alleged to have abused a dog. After investigation by the town animal control officer, the dog was confiscated and taken to a licensed shelter for care while a criminal case played out. Moriah paid $4,000 for the dogÍ s care.

There have been several similar cases, he said.

A court can charge the animalÍ s owner for their care, Scozzafava said, but thatÍ s often not realistic. People either canÍ t or wonÍ t pay the bill. ñ Animal abuse is wrong and we need to be vigilant,î Scozzafava said. ñ This isnÍ t about animal abuse, itÍ s about who has responsibility to pay for the animalÍ s care.î The stateÍ s animal control laws are vague and need to be addressed, the supervisor said. ñ We get an anonymous call,î he said. ñ Someone claims a dog is being abused. We send our animal control officer, Ed Roberts, to investigate. He gets there and finds the dog is thin, but thereÍ s a bowl of food sitting next to the dog. Ed takes photos, does an investigation. Is the dog thin or malnourished? ñ Only a vet can really make that determination,î he said. ñ Calling a vet may take some time and it can be expensive. So whatÍ s the right

thing to do?î Moriah calls the Essex County SheriffÍ s Department, which has a deputy trained in animal abuse, to make a decision. ñ ItÍ s a tough situation,î Scozzafava said. ñ Neither Ed Roberts or the sheriffÍ s deputy are vets. We need some clarification. Who makes the abuse determination and who pays for the animalÍ s care?î In the Essex case, the sheriff’s office became aware of the alleged neglect through a complaint from a concerned citizen. After a search warrant was obtained, the horses were examined by veterinarians and removed from the property.

The animals were found to be in varying conditions ranging from severe malnutrition to injury and were removed for treatment and recovery.

Police sting leads to arrests

Two arrests were made following a state police underage drinking initiative Oct. 29 in Essex County.

Arrested for misdemeanor prohibited sale of an alcoholic beverage to a person under the age of 21 were Carlo F. Calabrese, age 19, of BoyeaÍ s Store on Plank Road in Moriah Center and Rubina Shaheen, 44, of Mobil Station on Main Street in Port Henry.

As part of the investigation, an underage volunteer was sent into each business in an attempt to have the clerk sell the minor alcohol. Six retail stores were checked throughout the county.

Businesses that were checked and found to be in compliance include Grover Hills Deli on Pelfershire Road in Mineville, CelottiÍ s Wine and Spirits at 4326 Main St. in Port Henry, MacÍ s Market at 4308 Main St. in Port Henry and StewartÍ s Shop at 4300 Main St. in Port Henry.

Julie Strieble’s third graders at Moriah Central School are doing their part to help the Monarch butterflies. Butterflies in the area have lost their food source because of pesticides and land clearing.

Students planted milkweed seeds to help draw the butterflies back to the area.

ñ Also, federal and state regulations on the types of food being distributed by pantries are changing,î Morse said. ñ For example, no longer will the pantry purchase condiments like mayonnaise and ketchup, pancake mix or syrup, jelly, or canned soup, spaghetti rings, or ravioli.î Morse hopes people will keep the food pantry in mind this holiday season, when demand for food is at its greatest. ñ The pantry would like to purchase turkeys and hams for the holidays, but that can be a huge expense,î Morse said. ñ A suggestion was made that residents who receive holiday hams or turkeys from their employers, and do not use them, perhaps consider donating their turkeys or hams to the pantry to be distributed. That would help the pantry tremendously.î

Nashville coming to the North Country North Creek event Nov. 9 and 10

NORTH CREEK — The Copperfield Inn will present its second annual Nashville in North Creek Saturday, Nov. 9, at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 10, at 2 p.m.

The event, hosted by Jennifer Gadway of Schroon Lake and her band Decadence, is a showcase combining ñ up and comingî country music artists from Nashville and the Adirondacks. ñ This yearÍ s entertainers are just amazing,î Gadway said. ñ We have Daryl Wayne Dasher, Renee Wahl and Decadence again this year who are always crowd pleasers, as well as newcomers Chelsea Cavanaugh and The Mulch Brothers.î Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door on the night of the show. Tickets are being sold at the front desk at the Copperfield Inn, or in Trappers Tavern during business hours. They may also be purchased in advance online at http://copperfieldinn. myshopify.com/products/nashville. The Copperfield Inn will also be offering a discounted $99 room rate for the event.

The Mulch Brothers Perhaps the best brothers are the ones who choose themselves.

Few people get to choose their siblings, but the Mulch Brothers are the exception. Mark Mulch and David Daniel Mulch both made the bold move to Nashville to follow their dreams and make music together. The Mulch Brothers have recently signed with Memphis based EFG Entertainment Group and will be releasing their debut EP for the label in September entitled ñ Next of Kin.î Produced with Jim Kimball (Reba, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw), the new songs return the band to their hard rockinÍ

southern country rock roots. The boys are excited about getting back out on the road and playing all their new songs live for their fans and friends all around the country.

Chelsea Cavanaugh Country singer/songwriter Chelsea Cavanaugh continues to electrify audiences and inspire fans with her catchy melodies and heartfelt lyrics. At just 17 years old, Chelsea has shared the stage with top national country artists and performed for thousands. Her 11-song debut album ñ Simplyî features top artists from New York and Nashville.

Renee Wahl 5 HQ H : DKOZ ULW HV LQ W HOOLJ HQ WOLW HUDW H VRQ J V IURP W KH KHDUW Working both on her own and with Roger Prescott (Trainwreck Ghost, the Texacala Jones Band), Wahl displays a talent for creating and inhabiting characters and moments in the fashion of Lyle Lovett and Townes Van Zandt. Combine this with a voice that finds the soft parts of your soul and insinuates itself there and itÍ s easy to understand why Wahl has been compared to Maria McKee (Lone Justice).

Her album Cumberland Moonshine establishes Wahl as a serious player in Nashville. It doesnÍ t hurt that Wahl is backed by one of the best supporting casts in Nashville. Cumberland Moonshine features performances from Bryan Owings on drums (Emmylou Harris, Patty Griffin, Buddy And Julie Miller); guitarist Kenny Vaughan (Marty Stuart); Pat Bergerson (Shelby Lynne, Wynonna Judd, Lyle Lovett, Suzy Boggus) on guitar and harmonica; Fats Kaplin (Mark Knopfler, Garth Brooks, Waylon Jennings); Charles Treadway on organ (The Dynamites); GRAMMY winner Charlie Chadwick and Roger Prescott.

Daryl Wayne Dasher D.W. Dasher is a lifelong musician and songwriter. His music is unique yet classic in style. His baritone voice delivers power and emotion heavily influenced by Waylon Jennings

and Willie Nelson.

He is a founding member of the Nashville Rock trio Mellow Down Easy, while maintaining a solo career in the Americana/ Country/Folk genre. In the spring of 2005, he was given the opportunity to work on a county album with close friends Kent Goodson (George Jones) and Patrick Boone, co-writing and recording with one of DasherÍ s favorite rock vocalists Jeff Keith from the platinum selling band Tesla. He has toured extensively since 2005 in the United States and abroad.

In 2009 Dasher celebrated the release of both Mellow Down EasyÍ s critically acclaimed ñ Cosmisutraî album and his debut solo album ñ Long Road Nowî featuring members of the late Waylon JenningsÍ band.

D.W.Í s new album, released in 2012 includes 10 new songs written, performed, and produced by D.W. himself. The album will also include a bonus track written by legendary songwriter Roger Alan Wade.

Decadence Decadence is a Roots Rock band fronted by Jennifer Gadway and Katy Cole since 1999.

A true powerhouse duo, they often classify themselves as ñ Real women, singing real music.î Combining GadwayÍ s powerful country voice with Cole’s folk and blues influence, these two unique voices come together to create a sound that is fresh and original. Their their debut album ñ Love Loudî released in June 2012 and has enjoyed local, national and international airplay.

Their sophomore album Tales From the Mountains has received rave reviews from some of the best in the business and has opened many doors for the band, including playing shows with Chase Rice, Drew Baldridge, Lainey Wilson and Shooter Jennings.

A big play gave Moriah its winning points early in the third quarter. C.J. Raymond, who played at Ticonderoga a year ago, broke free for a 48-yard touchdown run and a 6-0 lead. After that, it was all defense.

Troy Welch ran for 113 yards and Raymond added 107 to lead the Moriah attack. The Vikings managed just 268 yards in total offense on the day.

Ticonderoga, playing without injured leading rusher Cameron Wright, was led by Bruce, who ran for 61 yards. The Sentinels had 188 yard in total offense.

The outdoor gym class

U

nless parents learn how to ñ pull the plugî on electronic entertainment, the ï wired generationÍ may never learn how to enjoy a host of healthy entertainment options that are typically available outside their own back door.

The list of activities is extensive and they can provide participants with the essential skills for a life long physical fitness regime.

However the time frame for creating the next generation of skiers and boarders, anglers and hunters, runners and swimmers, paddlers and bikers is not strictly limited to a key period.

Although studies have identified the fourth grade/ age 10 years as the critical time frame for introducing children to lifelong recreational habits, kids can develop the skills at an earlier age, or at a later age.

The need for life skills education is especially amplified in rural areas, where structured recreational outlets have always been rather limited.

This situation is obvious in many North Country communities where youth centers are few, organized sports are limited and the availability of a central ï hangoutÍ is often nonexistent.

Some of the smaller communities no longer support a local diner, movie theatre, arcade, bowling alley or even a recreation center.

Even without an obvious lack of quick, easy and responsible recreation, bored kids are eventually going to find some sort of recreation outlet, for better or worse.

Fortunately, most North Country residents have a positive recreational outlet as close as their own back yard. However, these outlets are limited to those who have both the skills and the tools to pursue them.

There isnÍ t a lack of interest. A recent Outdoor Recreation Participation Study conducted by the Outdoor Industry Foundation indicates that: ñ AmericansÍ participation in active outdoor recreation remains strong; in fact 72 percent of Americans, age 16 and above, participated in some form of active outdoor recreation last year.î Fortunately, there are a lot of other studies to back it up. Check out the highlights from some recent studies: • Unstructured free play brings cognitive, social and health benefits to children.

• Unstructured free play in the outdoors brings a host of benefits to children ranging from being smarter, to more cooperative to becoming healthier overall.

• The study builds a strong case for the importance of unstructured free play in the out-of-doors for all age groups, and especially young children. The authors cite cognitive benefits from play in nature, including creativity, problem-solving, focus and self-discipline.

• Social benefits include cooperation, flexibility, and selfawareness. Emotional benefits include stress reduction, reduced aggression and increased happiness. Children will be smarter, better able to get along with others, healthier and happier when they have regular opportunities for free and unstructured play in the out-of-doors.

• Being outdoors is important to our overall health and the evidence reveals that contact with natural surroundings promotes healthier social behavior and lessens social dysfunction, improves resilience, helps to alleviate stress, promotes optimal psychological functioning, improves recovery from physical trauma, and reduces mortality.

However, a study that really caught my eye details the benefits of outdoor skills education and wildlife-related outdoor education. It indicates outdoor skills education supports our health, learning, and lifestyle. In addition, the authors note a significant relationship exists between outdoor skills education and lifelong participation in fishing, hunting and other outdoor pursuits.

In a review, the authors discussed evidence regarding the benefits of outdoor skills education, including improved interpersonal and interpersonal skills, environmental awareness, physical, mental, and social health; the ability to learn and concentrate and stewardship ethics in regard to hunting and fishing.

The study authors also noted indicators of recruitment and retention in these outdoor activities, which include early life experiences, mentorship, and structured programs that are culturally appropriate and more holistic and ecologically oriented.

The studies didnÍ t really shed any new light on the subject, they simply verified what most outdoor travelers already know.

The time we spend outdoors is healthy, relaxing, reinvigorating, calming, stress reducing and provides good clean fun.

At least two New York state politicians have seen the light, and the legislation theyÍ ve proposed appears to be supported by the recent research.

Assembly bill, A4345, sponsored by Assemblyman Will Barclay, R-Pulaski, and Senate version S4933, sponsored by Sen. John Bonacic, R-Mt. Hope propose ñ An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to hunting, fishing and outdoor education in high school physical education coursesî The proposed legislation, which is supported by the New York State Conservation Council, would allow school districts the option of providing a curriculum of hunting, fishing and trapping education as a component of high school physical education courses.

Although it does not require school districts to implement the

A future, Varsity Bass Fishing athlete shows off his prowess with the long rod during a session of off season training! outdoor curriculum, it does allow them to offer outdoor skills as a component of the physical education program.

It is interesting to note that studies indicate the percentage of high school athletes who continue to regularly participate in team sports following graduation remains extremely low.

The likelihood of regular participation in team sports diminishes exponentially after a former high school athlete takes on the responsibilities of full time employment, marriage, children and family duties, etc.

Within five years of graduation, the vast majority of high school athletes will never again participate in a regular routine of team athletics.

The sole exception to this trend are high school athletes who participated as members of a Varsity Bass Fishing team.

However, the percentage of athletes who regularly participate in outdoor pursuits such as skiing, hunting, fishing, running, biking, paddling, hiking, climbing and similar outdoor pursuits continues to grow. Such pursuits are often referred to as life skills, since they can be pursued on an individual basis for life.

These are athletic events that do not require additional team members or referees. There is no need for scorekeepers or groomed fields, nor time clocks or bleachers full of cheering spectators or the usual cheerleaders.

Typically, the playing field for such non-traditional athletes is an actual field, or a forest, stream, lake or even a rock ledge.

These are the fields for athletes who have learned to stay away from the courts. They prefer to play in special arenas where the only spectators are fish, fowl or game.
