Ticonderoga marina wins back-to-back awards

By Seth Lang

seth@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ Snug Harbor Marina located on Lake George in Ticonderoga recently received another Customer Service Index award from Mercury.

In 2012 the marina received a CSI award for complete customer service satisfaction. Every time a Mercury repair or sale is completed Mercury sends the customer a survey on their satisfaction. In late 2013 the marina received the award again and are the only marina in the area to receive it.

“In the past we’ve received a 98 percent satisfaction and not won the award,Ó said head service manager Paul Bessett. Ò The fact that the survey is sent from Mercury and not filled out in front of marina employees rules out a conflict of interest and speaks loudly to how satisfied Snug Harbors customers really are,Ó said Bessett.

Snug Harbor is located on the quieter end of

Lake George offering customers an array of marine services which include boat sales, boat rentals, boat winterizing, storage, fiberglass and gel coat repairs, local boat hauling and mechanical repairs. The marina also offers customers tow ropes, water skis, tubes, ski vests, life jackets, boat bumpers as well as engine parts, marine batteries, boat cleaning supplies, adhesives, oil and lube supplies, fuel at its docks and more including cold beverages and snacks.

Now open year around, Bessett said business is growing and sets aside major repairs and customizing for the winter months. The marina employs 12 people in the winter season and 48 throughout the summer.

“There’s nothing we can’t fix, minor or major,Ó he said. Ò We will get you back on the water.Ó Snug Harbor offers two rental locations on Lake George to serve customers. One is at Snug Harbor Marina in Ticonderoga, the other is Snug Harbor South boat rentals in Silver Bay, former location of WernerÕ s Boat Rentals.

Fort Ticonderoga taking teacher applications

TICONDEROGA Ñ Fort Ticonderoga is now accepting applications from teachers to participate in the 2014 Fort Ticonderoga Teacher Institute July 13-17.

The focus of this yearÕ s institute is Ò 1776 at TiconderogaÓ and will accommodate 14 teachers for a week-long exploration of the year as it unfolded at Fort Ticonderoga. Applications are due April 15. Ò The Fort Ticonderoga Teacher Institute is a great addition to our annual programs for educators,Ó said Beth Hill, president and CEO of Fort Ticonderoga. Ò This important program builds on the success of our first teacher institute in 2013 and our on-going experience with the National Endowment for the Humanities teacher workshops weÕ ve hosted. Fort Ticonderoga has become a nationally recognized leader in teacher educationÓ Ò Fort Ticonderoga is thrilled to offer this unique opportunity

for a small group of teachers to spend a week digging into the wealth of documents, objects, and material culture related to a specific year at Fort Ticonderoga,” noted Rich Strum, Fort TiconderogaÕ s director of education and the institute director. Ò Full-time classroom teachers and school librarians in public, charter, independent, and religiously-affiliated schools are eligible to apply. Ò Our growing partnership with the College of St. Joseph in Vermont gives participating teachers the opportunity to earn three graduate credits upon completion of the designated project,Ó said Strum. Ò Fort Ticonderoga offers this week-long experience with limited out-of-pocket costs for teachers.Ó During the course of the week, teachers will work with author and historian James L. Nelson. They will explore topics related to the failed invasion of Canada and the subsequent retreat to Ticonderoga, the structure of the Continental Army,

the construction and manning of a fleet to protect Lake Champlain, and how the events of 1776 at Ticonderoga helped lay the groundwork for a stunning American victory at Saratoga the following year.

Teachers will work with original documents in the Fort Ticonderoga collection. Tim Potts, past president of the New York State Council for the Social Studies, will interact with teachers throughout the week, leading them through pedagogical activities applicable in the classroom.

Several immersive experiences will allow teachers a greater appreciation of the day to day work of Continental soldiers that served at Ticonderoga in 1776. Teachers will become the crew of a 30-foot bateau on Lake Champlain, take part in wood-working activities, and cook a meal in an 18th-century field kitchen.

Interested teachers can learn more by visiting Fort TiconderogaÕ s website at www.fort-ticonderoga.org

North Country reps need to Why should we do this? be mindful of our needs B

T

hey may very well have had a point.

Last Friday, local teachers and parents stood outside the Glens Falls and Plattsburgh offices of New York State Sen. Elizabeth “Betty” Little to protest a pair of key issues when it comes to education funding within the state.

The first issue is easy enough: Why would anyone in the North Country care about funding for charter schools? Those who have come out in support of passing funding to the publicly paid for, but independently run, academies that, according to the state Department of Education, Ò create and sustain excellent educational options for New York State families on behalf of the Board of Regents through high quality charter school authorizing, fair and transparent oversight of all charter schools, and the dissemination of innovative school designs and practices.Ó Sounds great, but the closest charter school for North Country students is located in Troy or Albany, a one-plus hour drive for our southern-most readers and almost three hours for those by the Canadian border.

So there are no charter schools in the district that Little represents, which makes it very easy to understand why teachers and parents are upset with Little voting in favor of bills that would shift funding away from public schools and toward charter institutions. Sen. Little, you represent a district that has no charter schools and therefore should be mindful of the needs of your constituents.

Little has been a champion for business rights within the Adirondack Park. She has brought millions in grant funding to towns in desperate need of infrastructure repairs and was on the front lines of Tropical Storm Irene relief. All these things she was praised for, but many families watching their taxes go up and their quality of education go down as teachers lose their jobs are losing their patience when they hear about the glory of charter schools they have no chance of sending their children to.

This leads to another issue, one Little has said recently she is trying to help eliminate: the Gap Elimination Adjustment.

Under Former Gov. David Paterson, the GEA was used to balance a state budget that was out of control according to Albany lawmakers. It continued under Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who swore the budget would get better.

Guess what, it has, as Cuomo touts a budget surplus that will be realized in the next two years.

Congratulations! The GEA worked and now we can go back to business as usual.

Ehh, not so fast.

Both Cuomo and the legislature are dragging their feet on this one, wanting to keep the money that should be going to local public schools away or moving it into charter schools.

What does this mean for local schools? Elizabethtown-Lewis Superintendent Scott Osborne said his school has cut all that they can without affecting the quality of education provided to students and the fund balance will shortly dry up. He almost drops to his knees whenever he talks about the desperate need to restore the GEA. Minerva Central School has already started to look at consolidation of high school services with Johnsburg because of the strain put on them by a state budget that gives them less money yet asks them not to raise more than the two percent tax cap.

In Glens Falls, the district is looking to fill a gap that is over $3 million while knowing money that is supposed to come to them is being held captive by lawmakers, including herself.

We all know people in the North Country feel, at times, their voice is not heard in Albany. Little has been someone who has helped overcome that stigma, and local families are asking for that help again. That is why they are protesting at her offices, because they feel she can affect change for them.

So, to all of our local officials at the state level, keep in mind the needs of local students and schools this budget season, help to eliminate the GEA and keep money coming to our school children and not urban charter schools. Ñ

Editorial misleading

Letters to the Editor

To the Times of Ti:

A very special thank you To the Times of Ti:

Last weekÕ s editorial on the Affordable Care Act (ACA, also known as Obamacare) made an effort to present some facts and discuss both strengths and weaknesses of the ACA. However, there is at least one misleading statement in it that needs correcting.

The editorial suggests that the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) expects the number of people with jobs to decrease as a result of the ACA. What the CBO actually concluded was that employment will continue to increase, although not by as much as it would have without the ACA. They expect the difference to be Ò almost entirely because workers will choose to supply less labor.” (http://www.cbo.gov/sites/default/files/cbofiles/ attachments/45010-breakout-AppendixC.pdf) In other words, people will leave jobs (mostly low-paying ones, according to the CBO) they didnÕ t really want, because their new health insurance options will give them that freedom.

More choice; more freedom; jobs opening up for people who do want them. Sounds like a win for everyone.

Dan AlexanderÕ s earlier column on the ACA contained an even more serious misrepresentation of the CBOÕ s research results. He claimed that the CBO calculated that the ACA would add more than $1 trillion to the federal deficit, but that is not true. The CBO actually concluded that Ò the ACA will reduce deficits over the next 10 years and in the subsequent decade.” (http://www.cbo.gov/publication/44176) Yes, the truth is that Obamacare will reduce the federal deficit.

Again, that seems like something we should all be happy about.

After a year of thoughtful consideration the Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce board concluded that a full time executive director was needed to address the challenges of our local businesses, residents and visitors.

As a result of this decision, the position of office secretary was eliminated. Mrs. Rosemarie Ritson filled that position for over 30 years and assisted countless visitors in maximizing their enjoyment of our town and the surrounding communities. Her vast knowledge of local history and her passion for Schroon Lake cannot go unacknowledged, so I wish to offer the boardÕ s and the townÕ s heartfelt thanks for her service and her support.

The chamber board is working to find the best way to express our gratitude to Rosemarie in a meaningful and permanent way, but for now, please accept this letter of thanks on behalf of the chamber board and the Schroon Lake community. Thank you, Rosemarie!

Tony Kostecki, president Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga teachers will flip burgers and serve fries to help local BackPack program.

“McTeacher Night” will be held Tuesday, April 8, 4:30 to 7 p.m. at McDonald’s of Ticonderoga. Proceeds will benefit the BackPack program, sponsored by the Ticonderoga Kiwanis. Ò Community members are encouraged to bring their families and have dinner that night at McDonaldÕ s and have their favorite teacher take their order and bus their table,Ó John Bartlett, BackPack program coordinator, said. Ò All proceeds during the designated 2 1/2 hours will benefit the BackPack program. Lots and lots of credit should be given to Scott and Robin Hearburg who are big supporters of the BackPack program.Ó The Hearburgs own McDonaldÕ s.

This will be the third Ò McTeacher NightÓ at McDonaldÕ s. The previous events benefitted the Ticonderoga Elementary School playground project.

Local officials react to proposed statewide animal cruelty laws Petition gains signatures in an attempt to help pass legislation

By Seth Lang

seth@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ New York Sen. Greg Ball is asking animal lovers to sign a petition calling for a statewide animal cruelty registry.

The call for the petition followed the sentencing of an Albany resident who plead guilty to leaving three puppies on railroad tracks to die in 2013.

The man will be added to the Albany County animal abuse registry so that he will no longer be able to purchase or adopt a pet within the county.

Outside of Albany County, however, he is currently be able to adopt or purchase animals.

The state wide animal abuse registry was passed by the state Senate last year but failed to get through the Assembly. Ò I voted last year in support of legislation expanding BusterÕ s Law and if it comes to the floor this year, will do so again,” Sen. Betty Little said.

The registry would contain the names and addresses of people convicted of violating BustersÕ s Law in New York State, allow easy access to the public and provide information to those involved in the sale or adoption of animals.

Those who have been convicted of abusing and torturing animals would also have to undergo a required psychiatric evaluation and would be banned from ever owning pets again.

Although BusterÕ s Law currently only applies to individuals who have killed or caused serious injury to companion animals such as dogs, cats or other pets, there are several pending bills that would expand the law to protect all animals, including farm animals and wildlife as well as failure to feed, water and provide shelter to animals.

Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting said thereÕ s room for improvement within the proposed law. Ò I agree in theory with the Animal Abuse Registry, however, as I understand this legislation, it applies only to those who have violated BusterÕ s Law,Ó he said. Ò This does not apply to farm animals and does not cover areas such as failure to feed, water and provide shelter for animals.

“We, as a society definitely need to provide better protection to our animal population,Ó Cutting said. Ò They deserve protection from malicious harm as well as neglect. This can be done by more comprehensive laws designed to punish offenders and make offenses carry more legal weight than the outdated and archaic laws that we have to deal with now.Ò Another bill, the Consolidated Crime Bill, would cover all animals and move these crimes from the Agriculture and Markets statutes to the normal penal system, allowing harsher punishments for offenders.

The New York statutes within this law comprise the stateÕ s anti-cruelty provisions. Ò AnimalÓ includes every living creature except a human being. Ò I understand the intent of the consolidated animal crimes bill, which is to bring more of the statutes currently in the agriculture law into the

penal code,Ó Little said. Ò That would make enforcement clearer for the police and the courts.

What IÕ m not sure of is how that could affect farmers who raise livestock for processing. Pet abuse, animal abduction, animal fights should all be in the penal law.Ó Executive Director of the North Country SPCA and Essex County Animal Cruelty Task Force member Jessica Hartley said the registry would be a positive for the region and that the state needs to protect all animals. Ò A state-wide animal abuse registry is certainly a step in the right direction toward addressing the issue of animal cruelty,Ó she said. Ò For the North Country SPCA and other animal welfare organizations, the registry would act as an additional safeguard to ensure that the animals we adopt out are being placed in loving homes.Ó Hartley said the SPCA would support any legislation to expand the registry beyond just those convicted of violating BusterÕ s Law. Ò Extending the registry to people who abuse farm animals and wildlife, as well as those who are guilty of neglecting their animals, would be far more effective in reducing the incidents of animal abuse in our communities,Ó she said.

Hartley said one of the most important things needed is education Ò Continuing to educate people about the proper treatment and care of their animals will go a long way toward stopping the types of abuse and neglect cases that we see,Ó she said.

The majority of officials agree that the link between animal cruelty and other violent crimes is significant and by taking crimes against animals more seriously, law makers would also make strides toward increasing overall public safety.

Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague said cruelty laws are heading in the right direction. Ò In Essex County, weÕ ve started an animal cruelty task force because of the need for not only public education, but also a need to amend the current Agriculture and Markets Law as they are antiquated and really provide no consistent sentencing guidelines that will prevent future ownership of animals in sever abuse cases,Ó she said.

Sprague also said that the New York State District AttorneyÕ s Association just voted to support the consolidated crimes bill. Ò We are urging citizens to reach out to their legislative representatives to urge them to support this bill,Ó she said.

Ticonderoga From page 1 roof. We have many different departments.Ó Jensen said Runnings will utilize the entire building.

The company, which was formed in 1947 by Norman Ò RedÓ Running, has been owned by Dennis and Adele Reed since the mid 1980s.

Runnings employs more than 1,300 people at its 34 stores in Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota.

“We’re excited to be expanding to the East,” Jensen said. “We feel there will be a nice fit between our stores and our new customers. We have a strong rural connection and feel we can be very competitive in the area.Ó Runnings plans to open stores in Rome, Gloversville and Canandaigua this fall. Stores in Ticonderoga, Clay and Claremont, N.H., are expected to open in spring 2015.

The Ticonderoga store will employ 60 or more people, Jensen said, not counting contractors needed to renovate the existing LoweÕ s building. Ò We are excited about the possibility of Runnings retail store opening in Ticonderoga in the former LoweÕ s building on Wicker Street,Ó Matthew Courtright, Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce executive director, said. Ò We have kept ongoing communication with the leasing company for the building and in November of 2013 we were contacted by Runnings to provide a variety of information and resources. Ò We will continue to work with Runnings as the process of them locating in Ticonderoga, hopefully, continues,Ó he said. Ò It is our understanding that the transaction is pending and Runnings is currently working through the process. They are hopeful and have every intention of moving forward with the possibility of opening in the spring of 2015 in Ticonderoga. We will continue to work closely with the company and provide them with the services and resources needed as they expand into the New York market.Ó North Country Community College had been looking at the former LoweÕ s building. In December the state agreed to fund a feasibility study of a plan to expand the collegeÕ s Ti campus to the former LoweÕ s building, creating an applied technology center.

That proposal is still alive, according to Chattie Van Wert, Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance executive director. The alliance has been working with NCCC on the plan. Ò As Steve Tyrell (NCCC president) shared with everyone last September, and noted recently, if the LoweÕ s facility is sold the NCCC feasibility study can look at another property in Ti,Ó Van Wert said.

If the project becomes reality, NCCC will expand its degree programs in Ticonderoga. Specific curriculum have not yet been identified, but NCCC President Dr. Steve Tyrell expects an emphasis on green technology.

NCCC has asked other colleges, both two- and four-year institutions, to participate in the Ti program.

The Ticonderoga program would be based on a similar program at SUNY-Alfred, where Tyrell worked before coming to NCCC. The Alfred program offers college-level carpentry, masonry, electrician and other construction trade training. It also integrates energy conservation, alternative energy use and sustainable building design education and training into its academic programs, focusing on green building technologies in New York State.

Tyrell said the proposed applied technology center could serve up to 450 students and could open in the fall of 2016. It will have no impact on the existing Ticonderoga campus or its programs, Tyrell said.

“The Den” is filmed as though the viewer is looking at a computer screen. People who own a Mac, could confuse it with their own screen at times. Ò We got the feel we were looking for by using a lot of small cameras and Go Pros with many of the actors controlling the cameras themselves,Ó said Donohue.

This past week the film received positive reviews as a feature at The Downtown Independent theater in Los Angeles. It has also been reviewed in the New York Times and other major publications.

The cast of eight actors, 100 extras and a film crew of 25 started shooting the film in July 2012. That was followed by about a year of post-production work of sound and visual effects.

The majority of the movie was filmed in Los Angeles, which is not common today because of tax incentives offered in cities like New Orleans and Vancouver.

the Showtime series Ò DexterÓ and horror movie Ò InsidiousÓ have filmed.

Donohue has been running around with a video camera in his hands since he was 8 years old.

He credits his father for helping shape his creativity and story telling by making five-minute “cool horror films” using the old super 8 video cameras as a youngster. They’d go to abandoned buildings in the Adirondacks like the old Port Henry High School to get the real horror feel in their films. “‘The Den’ felt very much like a very big student film because the crew was mostly made up of cinematographer friends form NYU film school,”he said.

Donohue said he’s very happy with the popularity of the film thus far and he hopes to see Ò The DenÓ continue to climb the charts. Ò Working on Ô The DenÕ has been one of the most challenging, yet rewarding experiences in my life,Ó he said.

Donohue said the film is an R-rated horror movie that deserves its rating. If people donÕ t like horror movies, chances are this is not the movie for them. Horror fans, though, will be pleased, he believes.

The Learning Arts Team of Artists perform at CPCS Interactive music workshops

By Seth Lang

seth@denpubs.com CROWN POINT Ñ The Learning Arts, a non-profit company that provides arts-based interdisciplinary programs to educational facilities, brought its talents to Crown Point Central School recently.

Dean of Students Tara Spaulding said the production was made possible by an anonymous donation from a couple who support arts education. Ò We were so delighted to have the members of The Learning Arts perform recently at CPCS,Ó Spaulding said. Ò This was a tremendous opportunity for our students to watch and work one-on-one with some of the best classical musicians and vocalists in their fields.”

Spaulding said the knowledge and leadership the students gained in such a short time was something they will have with them for years to come. Ò I appreciate the generous donation of the anonymous art lovers who made this event possible for our kids,Ó she said.

The students were able to watch a performance before four sessions where students worked with the professionals in small groups.

Shelbie DuShane, a seventh grade student, said, Ò Cellist Andrew taught me some proper posture and a few techniques I didnÕ t know. My her favorite bit of advice was that when told the group, Ô If you mess up, just keep swimming!Õ Ó Sophomore Erick DuShane said he learned many techniques he can use daily to help him with his piano performances. Ò The performance was inspiring and broadened my horizons to the arts,Ó he said.

Sophomore Makky Coleman and senior James Blanchard both said their perspectives were changed on the Ò How to think and look at ArtÓ during their session.

John Cimino is president of Associated Solo Artists, Creative Leaps International and The Learning Arts. Ò We are world-class performing artists and educators dedicated to improving the quality of thinking and learning by linking the arts with the processes of creativity, problem-solving and leadership development,Ó said Cimino.

Performers included singer and actress Christine Clemmons-McCune, cellist Andrew Borkowski and percussionist Richard Albagli.

Students of Crown Point had an opportunity to learn from The Learning Arts, a non-profit company that provides arts-based interdisciplinary programs to educational facilities.

Route 9 paving project planned Road to be repaired from Schroon to Pottersville

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE Ñ After years of complaints, a section of Route 9 from Schroon Lake south to Pottersville will be paved this year.

Bryan Viggiani, New York State Department of Transportation Region 1 public information officer, confirmed the stretch of highway will be repaired. Ò A stretch of Route 9 between Pottersville (Warren County)

and Schroon Lake (Essex County) is tentatively scheduled for paving this coming construction season,Ó he said. Ò We do not yet have exact dates yet.Ó Mike Marnell, Schroon supervisor, said he believes the work will be completed before the summer tourism season. Ò ThatÕ s a terrible stretch of road,Ó Marnell said. Ò Everyone who drives on it feels like theyÕ ve been beaten up. ItÕ s really rough.Ó Marnell, who is a former Schroon highway superintendent, said local officials have been asking DOT to repair the road for the past decade. Ò WeÕ ve been asking for a long time,Ó he said. Ò Our emergency squad tries to stay off that road because of all the bouncing and noise.Ó

Route 9 from Schroon south to Pottersville is a concrete highway, Marnell said. It was constructed in 1956-57. The state DOT made some repairs in 1998, Marnell said, but the road has never been totally repaved. Ò It may be an inconvenience for a while, I suspect theyÕ ll close one lane at a time,Ó Marnell said of the paving, Ò but it really needs to be done.Ó Marnell is pleased the state will pave Route 9, but he believes the road needs to be totally reconstructed. Ò This (paving) will buy them 10-12 years, but that concrete is going to be a problem in the future,Ó he said. Ò They need to rebuild that road.Ó

Schroon students part of college program SCHROON LAKE — The SUNY Albany college-level Schroon Lake Central School French students took part of a francophone day at SUNY-Albany recently along with seven other schools that participate in the University in the High School program.

The program has 47 high schools participating from schools in the state near New York City as well as in the Rochester and Syracuse areas as well as Schroon Lake. Junior and senior students enrolled in the program receive four college credits by successfully completing the course at SLCS with teacher Natalie Royer-Loiselle.

“Our day was filled with French speaking and culture and mingling with other French students from the other schools through several activities such as dancing,Ó Royer-Loiselle said. Ò We researched a francophone traditional dessert and presented to a group of judges for the contest. We also had the opportunity to meet and speak with people from African French speaking countries such as Togo and Cameroun as well as Haiti, France and Quebec. The students experienced the campus through a treasure hunt. What a great day and opportunity for our students.Ó Schroon Lake students who attended were Joseph Maisonville, Dakota Schroon Lake Central School French students attended francophone day at SUNY-Albany for Gadway, Abigail Welch, Joelle Kow- collège-level students recently. Attending were Joseph Maisonville, Dakota Gadway, Abigail alka, Tanner Stone and Molly Wisser. Welch, Joelle Kowalka, Tanner Stone and Molly Wisser.

As Buffet saysÕ Ò a change of latitude, and change of attitudeÓ ! Lower elevation streams will warm sooner than high mountain or hill streams so check out a stream guide before you venture out. You will get water temps, flows in CFS and suggested flies to use. With the storm systems that have hit the mid -south section of the east, you have got to check ahead to find the stream conditions, this won’t be an average year.

Rainbow trout will be doing their thing very soon, so check out the Salmon River and other Lake Ontario tribs, as well as the tribs to Lake Erie and other inland lakes and streams that have Ò bowÓ runs. Lake Ontario doesnÕ t freeze over, and the climate along the lake is a little mellower than we have, so it would be a good first choice. According to my western NY sources, Lake Erie is solid, and snow still covers the ground near the Cattaraugus. So things may get hopping a few weeks later little late this year. Then again, Mother Nature can throw another curve ball and we can go to instant summer and things will change fast. Once we get a few warm rains and the streams come up, get your waders on and be prepared for some combat fishing!

April, 16, 2014- Lake Champlain’s Trout Unlimited Chapter will have a fly casting seminar to show new stream fishing water whippers how to cast a fly line and fly with finesse.

Trout Unlimited, TU, will have rods and reels on hand, so both young and old can learn the beauty of fly fishing. The class is open to anyone 12 years and older, and parents are encouraged to participate with their children, fishing is a family event. For more information, contact Janice Opal at jopal@ charter.net Saturday, March 29 American Museum of Fly Fishing in Manchester Vermont. Learn to tie flies with Paul Sinicki and Kelly Bedford. Learn how to make a practice rod and tie a clown fly. Feel free to contact Christina Cole at ccole@amff. com or by calling the Museum at 802-362-3300 with any questions!
