State fees threaten Memorial Day services set Americade 2011

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Americade founder Bill Dutcher said if the state continues to annually boost a $52,000 fee for the use of a parking lot, he’ll be forced to take the rally — estimated to bring more than $40 million per year into the local economy — out of the region.

Hearing of the $19,000 hike in fees by the state to Americade, Warren County supervisors approved a resolution last week chastising the state Department of Environmental Conservation for raising its fee for the use of an empty parking lot. Supervisors blasted state officials, saying it made no sense to chase Northeastern New York’s largest tourism event out of the area, probably to another state.

The DEC’s fee for the Million Dollar Beach parking lot could cost the state $400,000 or more in sales tax revenue besides the $40 million plus to Warren County, they said.

By Thom Randall WARRENSBURG — Citing traffic, pedestrian safety and community heritage concerns, a lineup of local citizens spoke out Tuesday against Stewart’s Shops’ plan to relocate a convenience store and gas station to the intersection of Stewart Farrar Ave. and Main St. Tuesday’s initial site plan review session was held by the Warrensburg Planning Board, which set a subsequent public hearing for 7 p.m. Tuesday June 8 to hear more opinions on the proposed development.

The Warrensburg Town Hall was nearly full for this initial meeting.

Warrensburg High school 7th grader Emily Baker demonstrates to visiting 6th grader Erin Langworthy how to cram all the scholastic necessities into one of the school’s narrow lockers during 6th Grade Visitation Day held on Monday.

1-10229

WARRENSBURG — Whether it’s lugging around heavy books, changing classes many times per day or following new rules, about 20 local sixth graders experienced a preview of high school life Monday.

The students delved into the daily details of the next phase of their educational pursuits during Warrensburg High School’s annual visitation days which began Monday for three days for the 65 or so local sixth graders.

The elementary school students headed into high school life were treated to busy hallways, greetings from looming upperclass students, teachers with high expectations, and several orientation sessions, the youngsters said.

“I feel nervous and excited,” one sixth grader said as she headed down the hallway toward Rex Reynolds’ Social Studies class.

Donny Stone said the high expectations of high school were an issue with him. “It’s kinda scary, it’s weird,” he said.

Each sixth grader was paired up with a seventh-grade student guide for the day.

Erin Langworthy’s guide was Emily Baker, who demonstrated how to stuff a full array of essentials — including books, a backpack, flute, and music sheets — into her narrow locker.

“Always try to keep your stuff organized,” Baker advised Erin Langworthy.

Morgyn Morey said everything in the high school seemed more intense.

“There’s a lot more activity in the hallways,” he said. “It will be fun here.”

Watching the sixth graders move through the hallways, High School social worker John Friauf said the youngsters were likely to be in awe of the bustle of the cafeteria, the complexity of changing teachers and rooms every period, the physical size of the upperclass students, and the pace of many of the classes — including the math courses taught by of Chris Blakely, he said.

“Ms. Blakely gets things going at the sound of the first bell,” he said with a smile.

Principal Doug Duell said that the rookies were bound to experience a little anxiety with the changes.

“They’ll be a little nervous about being in a

•100 Years Ago – May & June, 1910• Notes from the neighborhood

H

eavy showers washed out many roads this wee, and readers are reminded that “a cold and rainy May fills the barn with hay.” This recent weather raises the prospect of many full barns this fall. These rains have raised the river this week to the high water mark.

There was a severe frost in this area the night of June 3, 1910 which was bad for everything except grass and widespread damage was done to vegetable gardens. Replanting will be necessary.

The ground in some places was frozen hard and ice formed on all the ponds of water and in the woods. Potatoes, corn and tomatoes were flat on the ground after the freeze. The oldest residents of this section of the Adirondacks can not recall a frost so late in the season.

Comet fever still raging The interest and fear of Halley’s Comet in this area is still high. A million or more eyes have been straining every evening to the western horizon an hour after sunset to see the earth passing through the tail of the comet.

This celestial sight has caused intense excitement and feelings of foreboding among many. Ruth Johnson, daughter of a farmer in Alabama went to the door of her house to see the visitor from outer space and immediately fell dead of a heart attack. according to newspaper reports.

Henpecked husband seeks revenge The stabbing of Mrs. Milton Bennett of Horicon by her husband is being investigated.

On Sunday, Mr. Bennett was passing the house of Harris Culver where his wife was employed. As Mrs. Bennett got a glimpse of her husband, she rushed out of the house and a wordy war began, a common occurrence between the two, neighbors say. Then a scuffle began and in the mix-up Bennett stabbed his wife in her abdomen and breast with a pocket knife.

Mrs. Bennett is tall and portly while her husband is undersized and all of 70 years of age and their family differences have been the cause of considerable comment for years. Their words, it seems, generally began over money matters which usually started a tussle and the husband always got the most of the hammering.

“I’ve stood it as long as I can!” Bennett is reported to

Townwide sale a success To the editor: The Thurman Townwide Sale Committee is reflecting back on a wonderful weekend enjoyed with shoppers from all around Warren County and places far beyond.

have told his wife and then drew back and cut her with his knife. Two doctors were called but her injuries were not considered very dangerous.

Harris Culver went to Chestertown and swore out a warrant for the arrest of Bennett who has not yet been located. It is said that he was last seen near Graphite, but is expected to return home as soon as he learns that his wife’s wounds are not fatal.

Boy receives grievous wound While at work in a sawmill in Bolton June 7, 1910, Leslie Finkle, 19, backed into a whirling buzz saw and sustained injuries to his right hand of such a serious nature that amputation of the member was necessary.

The young man was standing on the floor of the mill in which he was employed, with his back turned to a large saw, when in an attempt to get out of the way of some timber which was being carried into the mill, he fell backward. His right hand struck the edge of the saw, which was revolving at a high rate of speed and his hand was badly mutilated and had to be amputated at the wrist.

Dead from rice thrown at wedding Amos Cummings and his wife, both of Binghamton, were married 10 years ago and their friends showered them with rice. One kernel lodged in the bride’s ear. For ten years it defied the efforts of physicians and surgeons to dislodge it. Three fruitless operations were performed, and a short time ago she entered a New York hospital for treatment. Brain fever developed and on Thursday, June 2, 1910 she died.

Help did not come in time While repairing a fence May 27, 1910, Albert Morehouse of Bakers Mills sustained a severe cut on his foot and before aid reached him he bled to death. He left home with an axe and not returning as soon as expected, his family began a search. He was found dead where he had fallen from weakness and loss of blood with his ankle nearly cut off.

Popular former Hague supervisor dies Lewis Burgess, 76, of Hague-on-Lake George died at his home the evening of May 23, 1910.

The man’s grandfather was a Hessian soldier who was pressed into the British army and was sent over to fight tributed. The print and Internet advertising accomplished its job well. Some shoppers needed no ads; they return to Thurman each spring as faithfully as the black flies do — but the shoppers are much more welcome!

The exceptionally nice weather helped the sale a great deal, but the committee credits success of the event in large part to area publications like the Adirondack Journal and Dollar Stretcher; to Thurman businesspeople, who bought ads in our map packet to help with expenses; to sellers who supported the publicity efforts; those who helped post and remove signs; to the cooperation of town staff and county agencies, along with Thurman Fire Co. and Thurman EMS and other volunteers who helped distribute maps and guide shoppers around town.

So many sale guests spoke of what a friendly town Thurman is, and we enjoy that friendliness every day.

Warrensburgh Beautification Committee leaned over backwards to make it possible for us to post our “Peptopink” Townwide Sale banner on their landscaped slope at Northway Exit 23. Their generosity in allowing area groups to utilize the space greatly benefits local events.

We have a whole year until another Thurman Townwide Sale, the weekend after Mothers’ Day 2011, but we hope all our friends will visit www.Thurman-NY.com and find other events to bring them back for a visit sooner.

To the editor: It is getting so that you cannot read a newspaper or listen to the news without hearing what the state or federal government is going to do for us. To tell us what we, as citizens in a free country, can do or have in our lives. It is getting very frustrating to me and a lot of veterans who laid their lives on the line for our freedoms.

Now Obama’s telling us that we have to have insurance or they will fine us — there goes our rights. The state telling you that you have to have a special outdoor boiler to burn.

The cost of fuel is so high that using a wood stove or boiler is all some people can afford. I think our state should worry about getting a budget passed on time, and paying attention on what they spend our money on instead of worrying about someone’s outside boiler.

With all the thousands of acres of land that the state has why don’t they do some select cutting and the money would help them instead of taxing everything. We should vote in a working man that has been where we are and knows what we need.

Lewis Burgess, born Aug. 14, 1834, began life as a school teacher and went on to become chief clerk at the Fort William Henry Hotel. He married Charlotte McClanathan on Jan. 2, 1862. Much later, after becoming the owner of the town store and holding many political offices, he went on to become supervisor of Hague several times, ending in the 1889 term at a time when there was 682 citizens in the town. Hague, lying quietly between the mountains and the lake, saw many exciting events during his terms in office.

Burgess gave to the town the lot on which the Hague town hall was built in 1893 and the lot on which the school building was built in 1909.

The children of Chestertown marched to the cemetery on Decoration Day and put flowers and flags on the graves of dead soldiers.

Miss Lana Thomson fell in the woodshed of her home in North Warrensburgh and injured her back so seriously that she is confined to her bed.

In Bolton Landing, Frank Parker opened the summer season May 30, 1910 by putting his auto stage in operation.

In Warrensburgh, St. Cecilia’s Church is being wired for electric lights by the General Electric Co. of Glens Falls.

The contract for frescoing the interior of the church has been awarded to Whitaker & Co. of Philadelphia and by July 10, 1910 the work will be finished.

He uses burial grounds to demonstrate and perform treatments for the most common problems with gravestones, including cleaning, resetting tilted stones and rejoining fractured stones.

Sign-in for the workshop will begin at 8:30 a.m. June 5 and the fee is $30 per person. Each person should bring a bagged lunch. Call 623-2505 to see if there are any openings as the workshop is limited.

Make a call, maybe save a life It’s that time of year for teen parties to erupt throughout the region, and parents are worrying about their children getting involved.

A tip line is available to report any parties that parents know about. Ask teenagers to also use the tip line to possibly save a life. All calls to this line at 761-9800 are anonymous.

Lewis: Proposed teen rehab center could be a model for others

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WILLSBORO — Local organic farmer and philanthropist Sandy Lewis said Friday that the cost of his proposed addiction treatment facility wouldn’t be shouldered by local taxpayers — and it could serve as a model program to train social workers and rehab center managers in effective rehabilitation techniques.

Lewis hosted a trip of county officials to Mendham, New Jersey May 20 to visit the Daytop adolescent substance abuse rehabilitation center, to which he has contributed substantially. The trip was sponsored to show the officials the benefits of such a facility, for both its clients and its host community. Those who took the trip said they were impressed with the Daytop program and how it was apparently changing teenager’s lives dramatically.

Until this week, Lewis had not directly addressed the question of financing the proposed facility, which has left county officials guessing. Friday, he made his intentions known in a phone call to Denton Publications.

“County finances are not involved here,” he said. “We don’t want county involvement, we just want their support.”

Lewis cited Daytop Mendham’s finances as a model that could be followed. Daytop Chief Financial Officer Jordana Zeger said Thursday that a combination of state and federal grants and private donations and corporate endowments launched the Mendham facility.

The annual operating expenses, which she estimated to be about $4.5 million per year, also draws on a variety of sources, she said.

Most of the sum is spent on local payroll.

The Daytop residential facility is authorized to accommodate 70 teenagers, and there’s a waiting list, Daytop Executive Director James Curtin said. The current population includes 58 residential students and 12 in day school. Curtin said no clients are admitted to the program that are either overtly violent, and no sexual offenders are accommodated — fears common to host communities.

Daytop officials said their center was well accepted in Mendham, one of the nation’s seven most affluent communities. An average three-bedroom home in Mendham, they said, is worth $1 million.

Zeger said that the Daytop center’s operating costs are paid by a combination of sources. About 81 percent of the money comes from state and federal programs underwriting rehabilitation, 14 percent comes from insurance company and HMO reimbursement, four percent from public assistance, and one percent from families paying directly for the treatment.

No portion of the sum goes toward a mortgage, as a religious organization leases the spacious plot of land and buildings to Daytop for $1 per year.

Although Daytop officials offered a financial outline Thursday, apparently Lewis had not shared his financial plans for the proposed facility with Essex County supervisors, as those officials at-

tending a Ways and Means Committee meeting Monday said they were in the dark.

“Is he financially going to back this situation? Is he looking for the county just to endorse it?

Is he looking for the county to build it?” asked Randy Douglas, chairman of the county Board of Supervisors. “I don’t have the answers to all of those questions.”

North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi, chair of the county Ways and Means Committee, aired a similar view.

Deepest condolences go out to Harry and Kathleen Simmes on the passing May 19 of their beloved daughter Lori Anne Simmes, at the age of 45.

Lori will be missed by a large group of friends as well as the entire Bolton community. She was an outstanding individual, and she leaves behind many fond memories of her character and life.

Where it all began For most Americans, Memorial Day kicks off the beginning of summer. Although everyone considers this long weekend to be perfect for family get togethers, the Indy 500 and wearing a red poppy, its significance is rarely ignored: Everyone knows that at 3pm, it’s important to take that minute to remember the men and women who sacrificed their lives to help make this country what it is today. However, does everyone know how Memorial Day came to be?

Most believe that Memorial Day began in Waterloo; few people are aware of what some historians believe to be its true beginnings. According to Professor David Blight of the Yale University History Department, the first Memorial Day was observed at what is now known as Hampton Park in Charleston, South Carolina. The Park had a mass grave for the Union soldiers who had died there. When the “What we have civil war was over, former slaves exhumed the bodies from the done for ourselves mass grave and reburied them in individual ones. They built a alone dies with us; what we have done fence around the new grave site and declared it a Union graveyard. On May 1, 1865, a Charleston newspaper reported for others and the that almost ten thousand, mostly African American residents, world remains walked in procession to the park for a day of celebration that immortal.” included sermons, singing and picnics; creating what was ALBERT PIKE initially called, “Decoration Day.” The current name, “Memorial Day” was first used in 1882, although not every state called it that until after World War II. It was finally declared the official name in 1967 by Federal law.

Although not every state celebrates it on the same day (the Southern states each have their own day for it), it is nevertheless still celebrated everywhere with parades, picnics, sermons and silence.

Love is no regrets

Maynard D. Baker Funeral Home

When a loved one leaves us, we all have a tendency toward regret. We say: “If only I would have done more, or just said how I really felt.” Love is a language spoken and unspoken.

It transcends words. When you love someone they know it, said or unsaid. In love all is forgiven.

There’s no need to regret.

Love Goes On.

Lake George overpowered in league championship game

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com

Lake George catcher Jack Clark puts all his effort into catching a foul ball during a game against Fort Ann Friday.

Photo by Kim Ladd/Lifescapes Photography

MOREAU— The illustrious, unexpected campaign of the Lake George Warriors Baseball team to claim the 2010 Adirondack League title came to an end Friday, as the team lost a battle against a determined, focused Fort Ann team that won the crown they’d sought since last owning it in 2004.

The Cardinals earned the win Friday, with 6’3” pitcher Robert Sprague putting his whole lanky frame into every pitch through all seven innings.

His stellar pitching was backed up by some consistent slugging from some experienced players.

Cardinal Dan Nassivera started off Fort Ann’s lead in the first inning with a two-run double.

Fort Ann scored on both a passed ball and

a wild pitch — and Lake George couldn’t recover.

Errors against such an experienced team make the critical difference, Lake George Coach Erik Hoover said.

“With their power, we can’t give them a couple of extra outs,” he said.

Lake George had soared to the top of the League during the season, behind a freeswinging lineup that knew how to keep the defense buttoned up. The first time Lake George took on Fort Ann this year, they won by a single run, just like the two previous matchups in prior years.

This year, with 10 seniors graduating, few expected such a strong winning season, but the Warriors continued to thrill their fans game after game, right down to Friday’s matchup.

Despite Fort Ann’s offensive momentum Friday in the game’s first several innings, the Warriors did their best to fend it off,

throwing out several runs at the plate during the fourth inning.

But in the sixth inning, the Fort Ann slugfest shifted into high gear as the Cards hit three consecutive triples.

Fort Ann Coach Dane Clark said he was happy with not only his team’s solid hitting, but Sprague’s stellar pitching.

“He was getting a little tired at the end, but I wasn’t going to take him out of the game,” Clark said.

In the Warrior effort, ace J.D. Jenkins served on the mound, and teammates Curtis McCoy, Willy Blunt, J.D. Jenkins and Vinnie Crocitto all hit doubles.

Hoover said that despite the loss, he was pleased with his players, and he had high hopes for upcoming sectional competition.

“I was impressed with our fight at the end,” he said. “We could have been a lot deeper in the hole.”

Stellar softball team defeated for league title

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — All season long, the Lake George Softball team showed ferocious intensity in fighting for victories, and their unbeaten 2010 record showed that fierce dedication to their goal.

Friday, they were a little less focused, and the Adirondack League’s number-two team, Hartford Central, earned the Adirondack League championship with the same type of intensity Lake George had maintained during their prior 16-0 record.

The Tanagers won 2-0 by putting forth a virtually impeccable game.

This wasn’t the first time Hartford pulled off an upset — they did it in last year ’s championship, too.

Senior Hartford Pitcher Jackie Petteys was the cornerstone of the Tanagers effort, even though her nemesis, Warrior Katelyn Callahan, may have encibited greater speed and power.

Petteys moved the ball all around the strike zone, keeping the Warriors off balance. Both her riser and deceptive drop

ball were effective in confounding batters, as she retired 16 in a row.

Callahan, who’s headed for Division 1 softball at UConn this fall, said the Warriors didn’t seem to have their signature intensity on Friday.

“We just didn’t play our game, and we made more errors than we have all season — and they capitalized on it,” she said.

Coach Kelly Collins, who’s taken her team to the top spot many times, said Petteys had been effective in this second matchup — she capped the Lake George offense at one hit.

Lake George had won the previous showdown against Hartford, just several weeks ago by a score of 3-1.

“Today we just couldn’t hit off her,” she said. “Apparently our heads weren’t in the game.”

The Warrior team now heads into Sectional play.

Warrior Jess Stein slides into base during Lake George’s game Friday against Hartford. The Tanagers won the game, which decided the 2010 Adirondack League title.

SATURDAY May 29, 2010

Relocation From page 1 across from the proposed store said in passionate tones that although the town would garner a little more tax revenue than they are now receiving from the Stewart’s store now located on Main St., such gains would be offset dramatically. Potter said all the houses in that historic area, especially the bed and breakfasts, would decrease in value, and town property tax revenue was likely to decline.

Potter said could see no reason to put more business on a short little street, Stewart Farrar, that is overcrowded now. She spoke of tractor-trailers making deliveries to the convenience store, causing traffic problems and creating a nuisance in this primarily residential neighborhood. Resident Paul Weick ask the planning board members and the audience whether they would like it if a Stewart’s was built across from their homes.

Weick warned that traffic would increase through a historic and gracious area of town to access the new convenience store, particularly after the Milton Avenue bridge is reconstructed and reopened. He also said neighbors of the store would experience headlights shining into their bedrooms at all hours of the night if the store were developed where it is planned.

“We have made mistakes in the past, let’s not make more,” Weick said of town planning.

Michelle Wortman warned of how hundreds of children daily walk along Elm Street to get to school or to the historic Richards Library adjacent to Stewart Farrar Ave. “This is an accident just waiting to happen.” she said of the increase traffic that a convenience store would prompt. ”Our children should come first.”

She warned that some people in the neighborhood are considering selling their homes if the site plans are approved.

Mike Morey founder of the landmark local business Champlain Stone on Elm St., said the plot of land slated for development should host a town park.

Attorney Matt LaLone, a Warrensburg Central alumnus said a convenience store did not fit the historic nature of the neighborhood. He said the town board’s state Environmental Quality Review Act documents weren’t prepared in the spirit of state law.

Shane and Diane Newell suggested that a more comprehensive, analytical traffic study be conducted than the report issued without thorough review by the state.

Laura and Steve Dana said an underground aquifer exists under that area and it should be studied and taken into consideration. They also expressed concerns of impact on the neighborhood, particularly the safety of children.

Teresa Whalen, founder of Warrensburgh Beautification, said her group had worked for 25 years to protect and enhance the history and architectural heritage. She said the fact that the core of the town is protected by a historic district designation was being ignored by the Stewart’s proposal, which calls for eight gas pumps.

After the meeting, Whalen expressed enthusiasm that so many people came to the meeting to defend the town’s ambiance and history.

“It was the strongest example of concerned citizens in our community speaking the truth and holding the Town and Planning Boards accountable regarding a turning point issue for the future of Warrensburgh that I have ever witnessed,” she said in an email.

Memorial Day

Americade

From page 1

From page 1

North Warren communities will be held this year on Monday in Pottersville.

The procession forms at 9:30 a.m. on the grounds of the old Pottersville school north of the hamlet and marches south beginning at 10 a.m. on Olmstedville Rd. to the Pottersville Fire Dept. headquarters, where memorial services are to be held. Formation starts at 9:30, and the parade begins at 10 a.m.

Participating are various area fire departments, sports teams and civic organizations as well as American Legion Post 964, V.F.W. Post 5513 and a contingent of the the Legion Auxiliary. A reception for veterans and their families will be held afterwards at the Legion Post.

In Lake George, the annual Memorial Day parade is set for Saturday morning May 29. The procession forms at 11 a.m. on Beach Road in the village, and marches up Canada St., beginning at 11:30 a.m., to Shepard Park where memorial ceremonies are to be held. A reception is scheduled afterwards at the American Legion Dugout on Rte 9L. In Stony Creek, Memorial Day ceremonies are set for Monday May 31, with a parade that begins at 11:30 a.m.

The procession assembles at 11:10 at the Stony Creek Town Hall, then heads to Four Corners, then proceeds to the town’s John T. O’Neill Memorial Park where a memorial service will be held near the veterans monument. Refreshments will be offered to the public afterwards at the town hall. A color guard of the Stony Creek Volunteer Fire Co., the Stony Creek Emergency Squad, and the American Legion William J. Varney Post 862 are scheduled to participate.

“Losing Americade would be a catastrophic development,” Glens Falls Supervisor William Kenny said. “It might start a downward spiral in tourism that we might never recover from.”

Kenny called DEC’s demands “ridiculous,” noting they were charging Americade even though the parking lot wasn’t even used that week — Million Dollar Beach is closed that time of year.

Dutcher said that while for many years the parking lot was available at no charge, it was raised to $52,000 in recent years, and DEC officials told him several months ago the charge was being raised to $104,000.

Lengthy negotiations reduced the fee to $71,000, with a demand the fee would be increased to $86,000 for the 2011 rally, a sum Dutcher said he wouldn’t be able to justify paying.

Horicon Supervisor Ralph Bentley called for Americade rallyers to form a motorcade this year to Albany to protest the charges, in addition to local residents contacting their state political representatives.

Marina Etiquette Tips • At areas where multiple boaters need to use the same location like the gas dock, waste pump-out station or launch ramp, do what you need to do then move your boat. If you need to go to the bathroom, talk to another person or purchase some supplies do this after you have vacated these areas.

• Keep dock lines, water hoses, power cords and other such items neatly coiled and placed in such a way that they are not a tripping hazard or mess to other people using the docks.

• If it’s a windy day or tight quarters it’s considered polite to help another boater dock. Normally this means someone that is docking within a couple of slips from where you are. This often requires nothing more then holding a line if tossed to you until a person form the boat is able to tie it off the way they prefer.

• Obey no wake inside any marina with plenty to spare. If you are going to error, error on the side of going too slow.

• If you are tying up along a guest seawall do so in such a manor that your boat does not hog more room then it should. If there is a 60 foot wall and you have a 28 foot boat don’t take your 28 feet out of the middle. Pick one side or the other.

• Along a sea wall use a spring line in each direction so your boat does not move in either direction causing your boat to hit another boat.

• Turn your VHF radio to LOW power so if you make a call when close to other boats you do not damage other boater’s radios.

ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 21

• Do not use the VHF radio for boat to land based communications unless it is with a licensed shore station like the marina itself. Not only does this clutter the airways its illegal per the FCC. Use a family frequency hand held or cell phone for this purpose.

• Keep music / TV volume at a reasonable level. Sound travels very well over the water. Keep this in mind when talking too.

• Keep your kids off other people’s boats and under reasonable control. Don’t let them grab and play with other boater’s water lines, dock lines, etc.

• Respect quiet hours. This varies marina to marina. Mostly I see this posted as after 11:00PM but varies from marina to marina so check.

• Return dock carts to their proper location when finished using.

General Prevention Procedures for Stopping Aquatic Hitchhikers Follow a general set of procedures every time you come in contact with any body of water. By doing so, you can protect your waters from harmful aquatic hitchhikers.

Because you never know where a nuisance species has been introduced, but has yet to be discovered. There are hundreds of different harmful species ranging from plants, fish, amphibians, crustaceans, mollusks, diseases or pathogens. Some organisms are so small, you may not even realize they are hitching a ride with you. So, it is important to follow this general procedure every time you leave any body of water.

1. Before leaving any body of water, it is important to examine all your equipment, boats, trailers, clothing, boots, buckets etc. and: • Remove any visible plants, fish or animals.

• Remove mud and dirt since it too may contain a hitchhiker.* • Remove even plant fragments as they may contain a hitchhiker.* • Do not transport any potential hitchhiker, even back to your home. Remove and leave them at the site you visited.

2. The larvae (immature form) of an animal can be so tiny that you cannot see it. However, it can live in mud, dirt, sand, and on plant fragments. Eliminate water from all equipment before transporting anywhere.

Much of the recreational equipment used in water contains many spots where water can collect and potentially harbor these aquatic hitchhikers. Thus, make sure that you: • Eliminate all water from every conceivable item before you leave the area you are visiting.

• Remove water from motors, jet drives, live wells, boat hulls, scuba tanks and regulators, boots, waders, bait buckets, seaplane floats, swimming floats.

• Once water is eliminated, follow the cleaning instructions listed below.

3. Clean and dry anything that came in contact with the water (boats, trailers, equipment, dogs, boots, clothing, etc.). Basic procedures include: • Use hot (< 40° C or 104° F) or salt water to clean your equipment.

• Wash your dog with water as warm as possible and brush its coat.

• The following recipes are recommended for cleaning hard-totreat equipment that cannot be exposed to hot water: 1. Dipping equipment into 100% vinegar for 20 minutes will kill harmful aquatic hitchhiker species.

2. A 1 % table salt solution for 24 hours can replace the vinegar dip. This table provides correct mixtures for the 1 % salt solution in water.

Gallons of Water Cups of Salt 5..............................................2/3 10............................................1 1/4 25............................................3 50............................................6 1/4 100..........................................12 2/3 • If hot water is not available, spray equipment such as boats, motors, trailers, anchors, decoys, floats, nets, with high-pressure water.

• DRY Equipment. If possible, allow for 5 days of drying time before entering new waters.

4. Do not release or put plants, fish or animals into a body of water unless they came out of that body of water. Also, do not release them into storm drains, because most storm drains lead to water bodies or wetlands. This is an important prevention step because many plants and animals can survive even when they appear to be dead. The two categories below describe some common situations where people may feel compelled to release aquatic plants or animals.

• Aquarium and Aquatic Pets: If your family gets tired of its aquarium or aquatic pets, do not release anything from the aquarium (water, plants, fish or animals) into or near a body of water or storm drain.

Explain to your children how you could be hurting all of the streams and lakes around the country and killing other fish and animals that already live in the water. If you cannot find a home for the critters in your aquarium, bury them. Dump the water into the toilet or yard, far away from storm drains.

• Bait: Whether you have obtained bait at a store or from another body of water, do not release unused bait into the waters you are fishing. If you do not plan to use the bait in the future, dump the bait in a trashcan or on the land, far enough away from the water that it cannot impact this resource. Also, be aware of any bait regulations, because in some waters, it is illegal to use live bait.

Boat Safety Tips for Kids One of the easiest and best ways to practice boat safety is to teach boat safety to people when they are young. This way, proper boat safety will become part of the boating experience and can become as natural as practicing good hygiene.

The following represents basic boating safety tips that should be taught should be taught to and followed by all kids who will be boating.

• Kids can assist the operator by looking for objects floating in the water; for other boats, swimmers, or skiers in the area; and for partially submerged objects.

• Notify the boat operator if you see lighting, rain, or stormy weather approaching.

• Stay seated in the boat, particularly when the boat is turning or moving.

• Never lean over the boat or sit on the edge of the boat, especially when the boat is moving.

• Learn basic first-aid. Know where the first aid kit is located, what its items in the kit are named, and how the first-aid items are used.

• Learn how to throw a ring buoy or a seat cushion to someone who has fallen overboard

• Don’t drag your hands or feet in the water when the boat is moving.

• When the operator is launching the boat, help him or her by staying seated and watching for obstacles such as people, other boats, or debris that is in the way.

• Wear your lifejacket or personal floatation device (PFD) and make sure it fits correctly.

Put your initials on your PFD. • When the operator is refueling the boat, it is best to get off the boat.

• Know where the fire extinguishers are located and learn how to use them correctly.

• If the boat you are on is pulling skiers, help the operator by watching for other boats, skiers, or for objects in the water.

• Let the operator of the boat know if you hear a horn or noise coming from another boat, especially when it appears that the operator is unaware of the other boat.

• Have the operator of the boat show you how to operate the controls in case you have to operate the boat during an emergency. Of special importance, have the operator show you how to use the on/off switch in case you have to stop the boat due to someone falling overboard.

• When boarding a boat, alert those on board first, stay to the center of the boat, and ask an
