PLATTSBURGH Ñ Wine lovers rejoice and safely take to the roads.

The Adirondack Coast Summer Wine Tour will be taking place at wineries and cideries across Clinton County Aug. 9 and 10. Now in its fifth year, the wine tour highlights the burgeoning wine industry in our region with stops from Peru to Mooers and many places in between.

Participants purchase one ticket at a participating winery and then are able to have several tastings at each of the participating wineries. Participants also receive a commemorative wine glass as part of the price of admission. Ò ItÕ s a two day event, but some people try to do it all in one day,Ó said Richard Lamoy, owner of Hid-In-Pines vineyard in Morrisonville. Ò You can usually tell them because theyÕ re very happy by the end.Ó Lamoy strongly recommends a designated driver, whether you are doing the one day or two day option. To encourage designated drivers we are offering a free raffle. The winning designated driver will win two tickets to The Adirondack Coast Wine, Cider & Food Festival and a one night stay at the Plattsburgh Days Inn. Ò TheyÕ ll experience a wide selection of different wines. As the wineries are growing and maturing, weÕ re truly getting the experience os wine made from

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ The time has come again to take out the golf cart, drive to the green and get a hole-in-one to benefit children in Clinton County. Ò WeÕ re trying to raise money and get the support we need to get these programs off the ground, and we need the communityÕ s help,Ó said Kathy Bishop, development specialist at JCEO. “We’re hoping that there’s a lot of people who can find it in their hearts to come out.Ó

The proceeds will be going toward the purchase of Early Childhood Educational Technology and Early Childhood Curriculum materials for their Head Start Program, purchase of swaddle sleepers for their Safe Sleep Project and to help in the fight to combat childhood hunger.

Northway tour bus crash kills Canadian teen

By Pete DeMola

Ò I opened the top and people started getting out,Ó Matthieu said. Ò Some people were hurt, some cuts. A lot of blood, not big injuries. People were in shock.Ó Matthieu and Stephen assisted authorities in translation efforts from French to English.

The family was on their way to Clearwater, Fla. They said they will continue with their travels.

Smith commended the family later at a press conference without releasing their names. Ò Each family risked their own safety and did everything they could,Ó he said. Ò They need to be commended for the human value of their efforts.Ó

pete@denpubs.com NORTH HUDSON Ñ A teenager is dead, and 55 passengers were taken to area hospitals with injuries after a tour bus veered off the shoulder on Interstate 87 and onto the median on Friday morning, July 18.

The deceased has been identified by state police as 14-year-old Chelssy Mercier of Quebec.

New York State Police Major Richard Smith III said Mercier was partially ejected from the vehicle, which then came to rest on her. After responders used jacks to lift the bus, resuscitation efforts by passerby, and state police were unsuccessful. Ô QUICK SUCCESSIONÕ The 2008 Prevost passenger coach carrying Canadian tourists was traveling south on I-87 from Charney, Quebec to New York City when it veered off the shoulder of the highway.

Essex CountyÕ s Department of Emergency Services received multiple reports starting at 7:46 a.m. of an accident near mile marker 95 and Exit 29.

Essex County Emergency Services Director Don Jaquish said at least six calls came in at quick succession. Ò It was one right after another,Ó he said.

Ten emergency service squads and three fire departments responded. Ò There were multiple individuals outside of the bus,Ó Smith said.

All passengers, reportedly between the ages of 6 and 54, were removed from the windshield and top hatch.

Smith said he believed all occupants were Canadian nationals containing multiple generations of family members.

It was later determined the bus did not contain seatbelts. Ô MASS CASUALITY INCIDENTÕ At the scene on Friday, the bus lay on its side with the front windows punched out. Ahead, the triple lines of iron guide wire were splintered; plastic strewn was across the southbound lane and the ground opened in a deep gash.

All 55 passengers, as well as the driver, were taken to local hospitals.

Essex County Emergency Services Coordinator Patty Bashaw referred to it as a mass casualty incident.

All were transported, some with a bus from Westport Central School, for safety reasons. Ò Once the adrenaline wears off, there may be cuts and bruises,Ó she said. Ò Crushing-type injuries.Ó None were believed to be life-threatening, she said.

Thirty-six patients were transported to Elizabethtown Community Hospital (ECH), two to Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital, eight to Moses-Ludington in Ticonderoga, nine to Glens Falls and one had been transported to Burlington via North Country Life Flight, according to Bashaw.

Three to five of those individuals were transported with serious injuries, Smith said.

The injured included 41 code green patients, what Bashaw called Ò the walking wounded.Ó Ten were code yellow, or moderately injured, with three code reds that required immediate transport.

CAUSE UNKNOWN No cause has been given in the crash. Eyewitnesses reported no obstacles on Interstate 87 prior to the accident.

The bus did not ignite, nor were any skid marks visible at the scene. Ò It rode the contour of the median and tipped onto its side,Ó Smith said.

The driver, a 61-year-old Canadian male who has not been identified, will be given an evaluation to determine his fitness to operate the bus, Smith said last week. Ô PEOPLE WERE IN SHOCKÕ Quebec resident Stephane Donnelly told the Valley News he was driving behind the bus, preparing to pass it on the right, when it veered off the road into the median. Ò I saw it swerving to the left,Ó Donnelly said.

DonnellyÕ s wife, Chantele, who was traveling in another vehicle with other members of their party, placed the initial 911 call.

He and his son, Matthieu, 17, approached the bus and started pulling the injured out of the overturned bus.

Stephane estimated he was driving between 65 and 68 miles per hour while preparing to pass. Ò ThatÕ s the speed limit,Ó he said.

CHAMPLAIN Ñ Champlain EMS will be holding a bake sale July 26, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in front of the old Yankee Dollar Store in the Price Chopper Plaza in Champlain. Cakes, pies, donuts and other baked goods will be available for sale. There will also be a 50-50 raffle at the bake sale.

St. Joseph’s Golf Tournament Aug 8 PLATTSBURGH Ñ The 4th annual St. JosephÕ s Catholic Church building renovation golf tournament will be held on Friday, Aug. 8 at the Barracks Golf Course. The tournament is a four person scramble . Cost is $60 per person which includes golf, cart and a meal at the end. Contact Deacon Ed Mazuchowski @ 563-0828 for further information.

INVESTIGATION A collision reconstruction unit will study where and why the bus left the road and where it traveled. New York State Department of Transportation officials will also open an investigation, Smith said.

The bus will be transferred to the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit in Ray Brook. Ò We still have whatÕ s commonly referred to as a Ô black boxÕ containing braking, speed and additional data,Ó Smith said.

Authorities will download that data to help piece together the causes, he said. Ò It will give us some indication what was going on.Ó State and federal agencies were on the scene alongside members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Ò We will coordinate with what the passengers believed happened and put that together with the evidence,Ó Smith said.

COMING HOME On Friday evening, a tour bus emblazoned with the name Ò MenardÓ waited in ECHÕ s parking lot to ferry the survivors back to Canada. Inside, investigators from the state policeÕ s Bureau of Criminal Investigation attempted to piece together what had happened.

Outside, a scrum of reporters from Canadian news agencies remained as 17 patients were brought in from Glens Falls and Moses-Ludington for transport back to Canada.

ECH vans later blocked the press from the survivors as they boarded the bus for the long drive back.

Online, a Facebook page for Mercier, a brunette with a mischevious smile, had been set up. Ò I was in the bus,Ó wrote Alain Blais in French. Ò My condolence to the family, parents and friends.Ó Ò I was also on the bus,Ó wrote Veronique Blais. Ò All my thoughts and prayers go out to you.Ó Ò As a Dad who loves my two girls of 15 and 11, and his boy of 13, I can only humbly offer to the parents and friends my sincere condolences,Ó wrote Richard Desgagne. Ò Keep in your memories and treasure the moments that allowed you to live this small shooting star.Ó

ing childhood getaways. This soft spot has blossomed into his tenure as the stateÕ s top elected official and has now bloomed into huge marketing pushes, including a $40 million advertising campaign that his office says has boosted visitations to the state by 4.2 percent last year, double the national average. North Country tourism is a $1.1 billion industry, generating $144 million in state and local taxes. We call any official who broadcasts our attractions to the wider world by simply inviting his colleagues in government for a weekend trip a visionary.

Hyuck! Like we said, weÕ re not starry-eyed simpletons who get gooey whenever the governor bats his eyelashes at us. Please.

We still disagree on many issues, including the Gap Elimination Adjustment that has left rural school districts in dire straits; the SAFE Act that has whipped gun owners into a fury and the property tax freeze that will force North Country officials to demonstrate shared services to give taxpayers a miniscule rebate check, pioneering governance our elected officials have been doing for years out of necessity with zero recognition from the state.

But those are all indicative of the upstatedownstate dynamic that cleaves New York, a divide that sees officials representing constituents from worldÕ s leading city serving in the same legislative body as officials presiding over the most empty and remote land tracts in the country, the cosmopolitan hum versus the blackfly buzz.

The state’s highest elected official has to rule from the center to be effective. Cuomo has done that, which means that our victories must be tempered with bitterness. HeÕ s walked the line well and should be commended for being a masterful political operator and a sincere advocate for the North Country.

While itÕ s only a matter of time until Cuomo will aggravate us with another foolish proposal or budget deal, whether offering to bankroll college degrees for criminals or continuing to dance around delicate issues like fracking, we hope that we can settle our future differences here in the Adirondacks with another athletic challenge, one inspired by another strong New York Governor who had a friend in the North Country: WeÕ ll call it the Teddy Roosevelt Challenge, an event designed to engage lawmakers in bareknuckle boxing, endurance horseback races and singlestick, a full-combat sport using cudgels, at Tahawus, the abandoned mining village in Newcomb.

Like you said yourself, governor, the best is yet to come Ñ y ou ainÕ t seen nothing yet. ÑD

Viewpoint

All hail the King

overnor Andrew Cuomo traveled to Indian Lake and North Creek last weekend for the Adirondack Challenge, the daylong extravaganza designed to promote recreation and tourism in the Adirondacks to downstate lawmakers and their urban constituents.

And of course, to the press, who were given access to some of the most powerful people in the state padding around in their flip-flops with the tacit understanding that they would beam these telegenic photo-ops directly into the living rooms of the American public, a display of Mad Men-level public relations ingenuity.

While it may be tempting for skeptical residents to write the effort off as a highly-choreographed dog and pony show Ñ and it is easy to scoff at the pageantry that bordered on high art, the political triangulation and the prime cuts of red meat thrown to an attention-starved population Ñ the governor should be recognized for his outreach to a region that has been left in the doghouse for far too long. ÒY eah, yeah, yeah,Ó youÕ re probably thinking. ÒO f course the woodchucks at my local newspaper are dazzled by the high-powered wattage.

How typical.Ó But his record speaks for itself.

Finch Pruyn. Cuomo hammered out the compromise deal that will allow access to the 69,000 acres previously controlled by the timber company to all user groups, those arriving on both mechanized sleds and foot-powered Keds. The North CountryÕ s future has been beholden for too long to downstate environmental do-gooders who treat the region as their personal playground, caring little for the people who live here and even less about their economic futures.

WeÕ re happy to have a leader who isnÕ t afraid to buck their aggressive lobbying efforts and craft a plan that ensured both sides walked away with partial victories.

Funding. Cruising from the media attention generated by his trip down the Hudson, Team Cuomo used the spotlight to announce funding for another round of projects that will expand recreational opportunities in the Central Adirondacks, including $750,000 to upgrade the Abanakee Dam on the Indian River. ThatÕ s huge. Another quarter-million will be allotted for the development of facilities and trails that advocates hope will transform the region into a premier equestrian destination. Some might call it political pandering, others may scoff that the money was destined for the community anyway, just under a different name from a different agency at another time. We call it smart politics.

Promotion. Cuomo has spoken repeatedly on his love for the Adirondacks, a seed planted dur-

Brooke Dever & Shonna Provoncha wow Autism Alliance with donation To the Editor: I am writing to share the outstanding effort and kindness of two outstanding young people in our community. Brooke Dever and Shonna Provoncha, both seniors at Moriah Central School, raised over $1200.00 to benefit those living with autism in our community.

I received a voicemail from Brooke saying that she had a check she wanted to donate to the Autism Alliance. I was a little con-

“May your heart be kind, your mind fierce, and your spirit brave.Ó Take a brief moment to meditate on the statement, Ò The heart has reasons, that reasons cannot understandÓ . What is your immediate reaction to this statement? Do you nod your head in gentle recognition or move straight to a cynical shrug and a little self-talk to Ò snap out of itÓ ?

In our latest Free Advice Night/Summer Chakra Series, we proposed compromise: the heart is where thinking and feeling meet. The Heart Chakra (green) is the physical and emotional center of our bodies. The point of connection between the yellow (soul) and blue (spirit) chakras, creates green, natureÕ s color, and can offer new energy and revitalization of tired nerves.

A well balanced Heart Chakra symbolizes harmony and abundance. ItÕ s associated element being air, consider whether your heart is heavy and stagnant or light and flowing….just like the weather, we can easily relate to something we experience every day.

The heart actually represents a more expansive view of love than what is typically considered; romantic love, love in friendships, love of God, love for mankind Ð and the often forgotten, love of self. An exploration of the heart chakra opens up our energy and capacity to connect with others.

This energy center governs our relationships and how we interact with other people Ð we can create the pathway to higher consciousness (the top three chakras) through acts of love. To begin this practice, we encourage you to explore the idea of the heart as the place where intellect and emotion proportionately meet and consider the power of choice in creating your unique pathways to loving relationships.

Shonna and Brooke are cousins and students in an Advanced Placement English class. For their Senior Project, they decided to team up to raise both awareness and money to help those in the area affected by autism.

Shonna and Brooke collected items for basket raffles by visiting local businesses and sending out letters of interest for possible donations. They held a volleyball tournament at their High School, ordered and sold multi-colored Ò Autism AwarenessÓ bracelets and pins, and held a bake sale. They said that the basket raffles were, far and away, the biggest hit.

Brooke has a sibling living with AspergerÕ s Syndrome. AspergerÕ s Syndrome is a Pervsaive Developmental Disorder(PDD) in which there are marked delays in the development of many basic skills, particularly how to communicate, socialize and think imaginatively with others. Brooke (and her mother) discussed how frustrating it was to get the right help and diagnosis for her brother. Now, Brooke and Shonna are very happy that local awareness is growing and wanted to be a part of the positive action. The funds have been donated to the Autism Alliance of Northeastern NY, a not-for-profit agency created in 2011 in Plattsburgh, New York, to aid those living with autism and their families. Shonna and Brooke asked that the funds be deposited into the general fund so that they may be used to educate parents and caregivers of those on the spectrum as well as with items not often funded through insurances, such as climbing, play and learning equipment.

Brooke plans on attending Cazenovia College to major in Criminal Justice & Homeland Security. Shonna will attend the State University of New York at Plattsburgh majoring in Childhood Education. The work these young leaders demonstrated was outstanding. They are motivated, focused, energetic and kind which was evidenced by their hard-work and selfless acts.

Many in the North Country will benefit from the work of these two young people.

• The heart is the mixer. It is the equalizer, the channel through which the material and immaterial must move in order to create anything and everything. Nothing of substance or natural order comes into being without first passing through the gateway of the heart.

• Base matter filters through it, as does gossamer intangibles.

The heart is the dispatcher of information - all kinds of information. From physical, emotional, and intellectual the heart serves as the hub - and interconnects the matrix of existence.

The Heart is the Balance point for all the chakras. Balance in this chakra is essential to living a life of compassion and generosity and creating relationships that are loving and non-judgmental. Balance in this chakra originates in the integration of the fire of the first three chakras and the self-control that comes through intention and reflection of nurturing the heart. You can immediately recognize a balanced heart in others who live with a code of strong personal ethics and values all while striking that delicate balance of humility and confidence.

An imbalance in the heart chakra is as easily recognizable; a lack of self-discipline and unawareness cause difficulty in creating and maintaining relationships. It manifests in jealousy and critical judgments.

Relationships built on this weakened state leave us feeling lonely and bereft of genuine connection. We can also become stuck in dependent and negative relationships when we do not tend to our hearts with care.

When we feel unbalanced; unloved, unworthy and unappreciated, these feelings will manifest in the world around us, only confirming these “beliefs” about ourselves. We then become part of the greater problem: we create conflict in the place of resolution, indifference in place of attention, and hardened

Park should be paid for by all New Yorkers To the Editor: On Saturday, July 19 and Sunday, July 20, the Governor of New York had another Ò Adirondack ChallengeÓ event in the Park.

As an elected official, I was invited by him to attend. I sent my regrets. I guess it just seems unfair to me that the people of New York that live outside the Blue Line arenÕ t being required to contribute to the cost of the StatesÕ playground in the same way as residents of the Park.

The 480-A tax exemptions, low assessments on State land, unfair state education aid funding, and not having development rights to much of their land are just some of the reasons that cause real harm to residents of the Park.

Some of us feel it is time for the State to pick up their fair share of the burden for this playground rather than place the cost directly on the backs of the Park residents.

If you want to use the playground help pay for it in a fair and equitable manner.

I hope the Governor and his friends had a good time enjoying some of the fun of our great Park. It should be here for all New Yorkers, but it should also be paid for by all New Yorkers.

Local woman writes of fleeing Soviets during WWII Fled Hungary on foot in 1945

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ It was like something out of a horrible movie that you know canÕ t be real, except that it was real.

ThatÕ s how 95-year-old Helen Schmidt described the endless column of people fleeing Hungary ahead of advancing Soviet forces in 1945. Stretching from one horizon to the other, trucks, cars, mule drawn carts and people on foot, with just the belongings they could carry, plodded their way over mountainous roads into Austria and eventually into Germany.

One seemingly monolithic being, each person in that column brought with them their own story. Now, nearly 70 years later, Schmidt is telling her story of escape and survival in a memoir she just published entitled Ò Oh Memory Lane.Ó Ò Our father made us promise that when they (the Soviets) came, we would leave,Ó said Schmidt in a still thick Hungarian accent, remembering the months leading up to her exodus from Hungary.

Together with her sisters Mary and Gabriella, her 3-year-old daughter and two other children, Schmidt headed her fatherÕ s plea and left. One of her brothers and a sister stayed behind.

Schmidt said that day after day on the march, she would carry her daughter as long as she physically could, but, eventually, the child would have to walk. Ò It was absolutely GodÕ s blessing that none of them complained. They didnÕ t even have food or drink. ItÕ s unbelievable that none of them caught a cold or got sick.Ó They found their way eventually into Germany where Schmidt, who spoke several languages, worked for a time for the American Red Cross as an interpreter. She was eventually separated from her sisters in order to take work in another German city, while she waited for the opportunity to come to America. Ò We all came separately because the Hungarian quota was so small,Ó she said.

Schmidt met a Hungarian man named Rudolph in Germany,

and the two got engaged.

When their time came to emigrate, they eventually found themselves in Albany. Her older sister was already in Albany working, and Helen and Rudolph settled there and began a new life. Ò The American people are so kind and so good, and itÕ s just a wonderful place to live. We finally were able to settle down and start to live.Ó They lived in the Albany area until 1987 when Rudolph, a family physician, retired. After traveling and living in Florida, the couple moved to Plattsburgh in 2007 in order to be closer to one of their several children.

In the late 1990s, SchmidtÕ s daughter Peggy had given her a blank book Author Helen Schmidt at her recent book signing at the Pine Harbour community in Plattsburgh. and asked her to start rePhoto by Shawn Ryan cording her memories of traveling from Europe and Ò Now, before I leave this earth, I have put it together.Ó starting a new life in America. That blank book was the start of Schmidt was lauded recently at a book signing at the Pine what would eventually become Oh Memory Lane.

Harbour community in Plattsburgh where she and Rudolph live. Ò My children wanted to know about it, and they pestered me,Ó Friends and residents alike eagerly lined up for autographed Schmidt said. Ò So this past winter I was able to sit down and copies of the new authorÕ s work. write it.Ó Copies of Oh Memory Lane can also be purchased online She had considered writing the memoir in the past, but the through Blurb Publishing by going to www.blurb.com and typprocess always stirred too many sad memories of the family she ing in Ò Helen SchmidtÓ into the search bar. had left behind. Finally, though, she was able to write it.

“Forum Theatre” youth class coming to the Strand

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ The Strand Center for the Arts is bringing theater to life for area youth this summer, with some help from a Broadway actor.

Robert Gonyo, a North Country native who now makes his living acting and teaching on Broadway, will be hosting a month long Ò Forum TheatreÓ work-

shop at PlattsburghÕ s venerable performing arts theater.

Forum Theatre is a type of theatre created by Augusto Boal as part of what he calls his Ò Theatre of the Oppressed.Ó Boal created Forum Theatre as a way to teach people how to change their world through the arts.

GonyoÕ s workshop will focus on theater craft, method and performing techniques. The class is for aspiring performers of all ability levels of experience,

ages 12 to 18. At the end of the month long workshop, students will present an original performance piece at the Strand. Ò Robert brings a really passionate energy to the theater. Through Forum Theatre, heÕ s reinterpreting how we see theater and erasing the bounds between performer and audience,Ó said Strand Education Coordinator Aimee Baker.

Baker said Gonyo first came to the Strand a year ago with the idea for the project, but they were still under major renovations at the time, and the project had to be put on hold.

She said that this first foray into theater education should open doors at the Strand so that they can bring more similar types of projects to the StrandÕ s stage. Ò WeÕ re hoping in the fall to offer more theater for the youth classes, as a stepping stone to offering larger and more professional classes,Ó she said.

Forum Theatre will run from Aug. 4 to 27, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, from 10 a.m. to noon. The cost for the class is $120, but, Baker points out, there are scholarships available to help families defray the cost of the class. Ò No theater experience is required, and weÕ re all really excited to get a lot of our young people involved in this.Ó Baker can be contacted at 563-1604, or registrations can be completed online at www. plattsburgharts.org.

Ô RACOCO PRODUCTIONSÕ Ò We mix dance and theater and visual arts in a pretty unique way and with a lot of humor, which is something you donÕ t always find in dance,” said Rachel Cohen, artistic director for the company. Ò From what people have told me, we create Ô worldsÕ rather than Ô dance pieces,Õ so the audience is transported into an alternate universe for a brief period while weÕ re onstage.Ó Racoco Productions, which became a non-profit organization in 2005, creates theatrical experiences that combine movement, the visual arts, burlesque, cinematic styles, everyday objects and musical composition.

Three of the people who will be performing in Plattsburgh are Masumi Kishimoto, company member, Stephanie Beck, first time performer and visual artist, and Cohen. Ò WeÕ re doing one piece, tentatively called Ò Paper TrailÓ Cohen said. Ò WeÕ re interacting with long rolls of colored paper, usually used as photo backdrops, making and changing the set and costumes throughout the piece with our movement.Ó Ò ThereÕ s a loose storyline about how landscapes are created and destroyed and the role that humans play in that process.Ó Recently, Racoco has created explorations of interactions between the human body and inanimate materials—clay, flour, taffy, paper, chewing gumÑ collaborating with composers and visual artists to blur the boundaries between the real and the imaginary. Ò I like working with inanimate objects partly because the things around us are such an important part of how we define ourselves, so if IÕ m trying to capture or express some element of being human in a piece, I feel like our Ô thingsÕ are a necessary part of that package,Ó Cohen said. Ò And then once you add

them, the objects take on a life of their own.Ó This company appears regularly in New York. Previously, Norte Maar has invited Racoco to perform in F• te de Danse in 2006 and Dance at Socrates in 2013. Now, they are ready to perform once again for 2014. Ò I think it will be fun,Ó Cohen said. Ò People will see something unusual and, hopefully, entertaining. Ò Maybe our work can expand the way people think about dance, and most important, stimulate their own imaginations.Ó Ô GLEICH BALLETÕ Gleich Dances Contemporary Ballet is under the artistic direction of Gleich and has been the featured company at F• te de Danse.

For this F• te de Danse, Michelle Buckley will be dancing a solo piece created by Gleich in 1996 called “Aperture,” the first solo Gleich performed in New York. Ò Ô ApertureÕ is about openings,Ó Gleich said. Ò Originally, there were some sculptures that were designed, and they had these openings in them that the dancer would fit through.

“I always describe it as though you’re going into a cornfield where the corn is above your head, and itÕ s that sort of game where you are looking or seeking out someone, and sometimes you find them, and sometimes you don’t, and sometimes you’re hiding, and sometimes youÕ re trying to discover.Ó The piece will include two supporting roles that will represent friends, other people, other facets of personalities and other openings.

Gleich plans on doing a second performance with co-founder of Norte Maar Jason Andrew for piece called Ò Ghost,Ó a duet love story where one person isnÕ t actually present. Ò It had nothing to do with the movie Ô Ghost,Õ Ó Gleich said with a chuckle. Ò ItÕ s the age-old story of the fantasy that you can reconnect with somebody who isnÕ t actually there, as much as the person who is.Ó GleichÕ s choreographic residencies have included Brooklyn Ballet, Burklyn Ballet Theatre, University of Northern Colorado, Island Moving Company and Norte Maar, putting on performances for community events such as F• te de Danse. Ò There might be surprises,Ó Gleich said. Ò Who knows?Ó

North Country grapes.Ó For those who donÕ t enjoy the cold-hardy North Country varieties as much, Lamoy says, many wineries also have offerings of more traditionally well known types of wines.

As for the current summerÕ s crop, Lamoy said that most vineyards in the area came through the harsh winter with little damage. Since the wineries in our area specialize in grape varieties specifically cultivated for cold climates, most of those grapes were able to withstand the winter. Only some experimental varieties not geared to the cold suffered damage. Ò Some varieties got hit really hard,Ó Lamoy said. Ò We have to stick with the real cold hardy varieties. A winter like this was really a reality check.Ó Interested wine lovers can consult www.adirondackcoastwinetrail.com for a list and map of participating wineries.

Ò We had international companies, invited guests, local companies, tap dancers and Irish dance,Ó said Julia Gleich, co-founder of Norte Maar and director of Gleich Dances Contemporary Ballet. Ò We took over the local hockey rink in Rouses Point, built a floor, built sort of a set and had a little makeshift lighting. Ò It was a real community event, and it became really popular and successful.Ó The event marks the first major production of contemporary dance to be held in the newly renovated Strand Theater in downtown Plattsburgh. It begins at 7:30 p.m. Ò ItÕ s a great way for people to see a return of artists from the area that have gone off, got new training and are doing beautiful artwork,Ó Dulle said. Ò ItÕ s a great way for the community to embrace the talent that comes not only from the Plattsburgh area, but internationally as well.Ó General tickets are $25, and member tickets are $20 to view the three dance companies Racoco Productions, Gleich Dances Contemporary Ballet and MADboots dance co.
