PLATTSBURGH Ñ Leaks in the roof of the 41-year-old Crete Civic Center have officials debating the future of the facility.

Two large spots in the lobby area have been seen gushing water, which are severe enough to cause water flow on the floor when it rains.

The lobby portion of the roof is expected to be patched up for about $5,000. Mayor James Calnon said that recently a hole above the indoor soccer field was repaired to keep the field dry for about $8,000.

A detailed inspection of the roof showed that it should be replaced within the next two to three years, costing around $800,000 to $1 million. The city’s contemplating all its options.

“This is an extremely important part of the city,” Calnon said.

“It’s really a valuable resource, so we want to be really careful that we consider everything and don’t rush into making huge changes.”

THE OPTIONS The city is looking on whether to repair the roof, demolish it The Crete Civic Center’s roof leaks have city officials looking into what to do with the building in the future.

Remembering James Dean Wilson through a walk and run

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com CHAZY — Strides for James, a 5k/10k fun run to support the

James Dean Wilson Scholarship Fund, will take place Saturday, May 9 at the William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute in Chazy.

“It’s a great family-event we’re trying to create for a dependable, loyal and hardworking person,” said Jennie Cody, Wilson’s sister. “He was such a great person.”

The event will start off with a Children’s Fun Run at 9 a.m., Walkers 1 Mile (stroller friendly) at 9:25 a.m., Walkers 5k (stroller friendly) at 9:55 a.m. and the 5k/10k at 10 a.m.

Packet pick-up will be Friday, May 8 at the Joseph C. Burke Education Research Center from 4:30 to 7 p.m. and one hour prior to one’s desired race the day of the event.

Online registration ends May 2. Race check-in from online registration and day-ofrace registration goes on from 7:45 to 9 a.m.

All proceeds from the race will go directly to the scholarship fund at Clinton Community College (CCC), hoping to double numbers in involvement, money for the scholarship and awareness from last

year’s race.

This annual event, created by the James Dean Wilson Scholarship Committee, keeps the goal of continuing the scholarship fund to remember Wilson.

Wilson went to CCC and got an associate’s degree in industrial technology. He was a passionate runner and outdoorsman who died in June 2012 in a motorcycle accident at the age of 26.

“He was the type of person who would just walk into a room and his smile lit up the James Dean Wilson entire room,” Cody said. “He would do anything for everyone; he put other people first and you would never hear him complain.”

On May 11, 2013, the committee held its first annual race at Point Au Rouche State Park, where over 250 people attended. It raised over $5,000 and met the initial fundraising goal of $10,000 to establish the scholarship endowment.

To learn more about the scholarship, the race or registration fees, visit the website stridesforjames.org/register “It’s for a great cause and it’s a lot of fun,” said Rachel Dutil, public relations and marketing coordinator at Miner Institute.

“It’s a great opportunity to come out and enjoy what’s hopefully going to be, finally, spring weather.”

Autism Speaks U, PSU women’s soccer to put on 5K Color Run

By Melanie Rivera

denpubs@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Running or walking down along a river and being splashed in blue paint is how some Plattsburgh residents will be spending their morning Saturday, May 2.

The 5K Color Run event will be taking place at Plattsburgh State University and is hosted by volunteers of Autism Speaks U and the women’s soccer team.

Registration for the event will begin at 10 a.m. while the colorful race will begin an hour later at Memorial Field. The race will take place throughout the campus and along the Saranac Trail, said Breanna Syslo, Plattsburgh State’s Autism Speak U chapter president.

Runners will be “watered down” with different shades of blue paint, the color Autism Speaks identifies with, shot out at them from different locations throughout the trail. There will be about 15 buckets on site just to add the colors to.

Syslo recommends participants wear white and added that the paint is washable and non-toxic. The chapter will also be selling white shirts at the event for $10. The shirts that will be sold are first come, first serve, Syslo said.

Plattsburgh State’s Autism Speaks U chapter is new to campus, having one year of recognition. Prior to becoming president of the local chapter, Syslo said she was very dedicated to it.

“Because I’m an Elementary Education and Special Education major, autism is a great part of my future profession,” Syslo said.

“I find a love for students just because the recognition is not out there so my mission for the club is to gain awareness.”

The idea to host a color run had already began to form before getting chapter recognition.

“Autism Speaks puts on Walk Now for Autism, but unfortunately the nearest run near Plattsburgh is two hours to three hours away,” Syslo said. “They had suggested we start our own walk/ run.”

Syslo then found out Marist College, which is near her hometown, did a color run for Autism Speaks.

“Because who doesn’t like it,” Syslo said. “I brought it to my club. I said, ‘Hey, guys want to try it?’ and they said, ‘Yeah, let’s do it,’ so we got the ball moving and that’s where we are today.”

Sixty percent of the proceeds will go to Autism Speaks U and the remainder will go to the women’s soccer team.

“We’re always trying to look for different charity events to do for our program just to help out other foundations,” said Frantzy Noze, assistant coach of the women’s soccer team. “Then come to

Plattsburgh Housing Outlet announces home building seminar Thursday, May 7 PLATTSBURGH — Plattsburgh Housing Outlet, Inc. has developed a home building workshop to educate the community.

Plattsburgh Housing Outlet will host a Home Building Seminar on Thursday, May 7 from 6 - 8 p.m. at Dino’s Pizza, 795 Route 3, (next to Wilson Appliance) in Plattsburgh.

The seminar will offer guidance on topics such as: lender requirements, manufactured and modular homes, advice on finding and developing a building site, and time frames for home building.

Experts from all areas of construction will give an overview of the process and participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions during the second hour.

Dinner will be served during the event and there is no cost or obligation for this service. Participants must RSVP ahead of time, as space is limited and we have been at room capacity the last several times the workshop was offered. Adults only please. Anyone interested in attending may call 800-794-6250 or email michelle@plattsburghhousing.com with their name, phone number, and number in their party.

Participants will receive a free “how-to” packet, a free copy of their credit report and a discount coupon for attending the seminar. They will leave with the information they will need to make an informed decision about new construction and home ownership. One lucky participant will win $3,500 off their building project.

Plattsburgh Housing Outlet has been providing North Country Families with quality, affordable homes since 1991. They were named Retailer of the Year by the Manufactured Housing Institute for the Northeast/ Mid-atlantic region in 2003 and 2013, one of four companies in the nation.

For more information, contact LaBounty at 563-6250, ext. 21.

find out, Autism Speaks was trying to host one [color run] too on the same date.”

“Breanna was kind enough to have us be part of it with them, so it was a good thing to join forces together because all the girls really enjoy it.”

The team will be in attendance. Many of the girls are running in it. Those who aren’t participating, such as those who are injured, will help out setting up tables, throwing color dye at people and providing water to people who need it.

“I think our girls are definitely looking forward to this event,” Noze said. “It’s not just a color-run for us. It’s also a part of something big that we always try to look for.”

Trying to reach out to the community and others on campus, Noze said they’ve been trying to send out emails to staff on campus. Additionally, Noze works at Community Bank, so he asked the manager to send out a message to the bank employees to see if they’d like to participate or attend.

“By next year, I think it will be more of a thing people will know of,” Noze said, adding that they’d love to make it an annual thing.

People may purchase tickets at the Angell College Center information desk or online at tickets.plattsburgh.edu. The prices are $5 for students, $7 for faculty and staff and $10 for general public.

The event will have music and food.

Build it, and they will come

T

his past March, town officials in Lake George awarded a construction bid for a skateboard park first proposed seven years ago.

About a month later, in Saranac Lake, an 11year push for a skate park in the village reached the $300,000-plus fundraising mark necessary to start pouring the concrete.

We have this to say – finally.

And other municipalities should follow suit in a timely manner.

Underserved If a kid wants to play basketball, it’s easy.

Schools, parks, even the hoop in the driveway.

Soccer goals, baseball diamonds, football fields – traditional team sports are about as accessible as can be. All it takes is a pair of shoes and a ball.

Teens on wooden decks with four wheels, meanwhile, have been left rallying behind the “skateboarding is not a crime,” cry for years, dodging authorities as they participate in what was, if not still is, looked upon as a counterculture sport.

They’re right. Skateboarding isn’t a crime.

But property destruction, trespassing, or in some places, riding on streets, is. A town without a skatepark becomes a skatepark. It’s what has put the sport in contention with police and municipalities for decades.

Some places adapted and built parks, providing skateboarders with the same opportunities as any other sport-seeking youth. Studies have pointed toward correlations between public skateparks and a reduction of crime and complaints. Skateboarders seek rails, ledges, stairs, banks, a variety of rideable features, and one would be hard pressed to find a skater who wouldn’t choose a professionally designed park over potholed streets traveled by cars and pedestrians.

With the rise of skateparks has also come a decline in risk. Virtually all skateboard fatalities have happened away from parks, most involving automobiles. Just this April, a 13-year-old skateboarder was airlifted to Syracuse in critical condition after a collision with a truck in Watertown. It’s not the first incident of its kind in the area, nor will it be the last if skateboarders’ only option is to take to the streets.

And then there’s this: perhaps the most basic but important part of the equation – most skateboarders are kids who chose the sport as a way to get outside and be active, a way to spend time with friends or challenge themselves.

Maybe they dream of being great at it. Maybe some will be. But they’ll all enjoy it.

But only if given the chance.

Locals stepping up Through the microscope of the park projects

in Lake George and Saranac Lake, the work undertaken by youth and adults, from the lobbying to fundraising, is commendable. Nearly a third of the price tag for Saranac Lake’s concrete park came from village in-kind funds, supporting the replacement of a skatepark that was the basketball equivalent of a dirt court with a bottomless milk crate for a hoop. Even the skaters in that town raised $60,000 themselves.

For the skateboarders who helped make the projects come to fruition, it’s been a lesson in patience and perseverance. For the non-skateboarders, the support was a selfless act in recognition that the sport need not be a crime.

But what took so long? Skateboarding – as well as action sport cousins like rollerblading and BMX biking – made a meteoric rise in the late 1990s. From the X Games to Tony Hawk’s video game franchise, it went from fringe to mainstream.

Skateboarding may have cooled some in the last decade – the amount of time its taken to get some local parks funded and OK’d – but it still boasts nearly 10 million participants nationwide as an established sport.

Build it and they will come These parks will draw local skaters and tourists alike. They may not generate millions in revenue, but a vacation-planning family may take note of a place where a son or daughter can skate. Meanwhile, our area youth will be drawn to a place where they can skate in relative safety. It may be dangerous, but no more so than virtually any other school-sanctioned team sport.

Skateboarders in Saranac Lake and Lake George, as well as our communities that already have parks, won’t have to slink around town while dodging cars and potentially damaging property. This will help erode a longstanding misconception that has likely contributed toward communities’ hesitance to fund parks in the first place – that skateboarders are delinquents.

What if baseball players were forced to find a parking lot in which to swing a bat? Surely the broken windows and dented cars that would result would taint the viewing of them.

No, skateboarders aren’t misfits, nor should they be treated as such. In an era of hours of screen time and youth obesity, we need to embrace recreational opportunities whether they involve a ball or a board. The cost of a lowmaintenance park is a small price to pay when the outcome local kids that are happily active and engaged.

united under one very short vision: to try to get more people to spend more time in the downtown area,” Rose said.

Several businesses will open their doors, some that are normally closed, on Sunday to achieve two goals for PDA: build awareness for residents and visitors on what’s going on downtown and encourage more downtown businesses to consider remaining open on Sundays.

“We want people to think about shopping locally,” Boyer said. “We feel it’s important to support the downtown location even if you’re not normally open on Sundays.”

Over 20 downtown businesses have signed up so far. PDA will accept businesses for this event up until the day before. While some businesses will open their doors for an extra day of service, others will offer a wide variety of sales, giveaways and raffles, entertainment and family-fun events.

BRIDGE STREET TRENDS Along with the North Country Food Co-op, DressCode, a consignment boutique, will take part in this event.

DressCode, if it’s a nice day, hopes to set up sidewalk sales and hand out 20 percent coupons for customers to use for a later date.

DressCode is normally open on Sundays. Julie Woodly, owner of DressCode, believes other businesses should be, too.

“It’s really a great day to bring in business because everybody’s off,” Woodly said. “People are going to be down here this summer and we look like a ghost town in the summer because nothing’s open.”

BRINKERHOFF STREET STOPS The Strand Center for the Arts, whose mission is to help spread and promote art and culture throughout the North Country, will show a free, to-be-determined movie at the Strand Theatre at 3 and 7 p.m. showings. Ò The Strand Center for the Arts, we feel, is anchored downtown and this is an amazing collaboration between downtown businesses to help attract more people to downtown,” said Joshua Kretser, director for the Strand Center for the Arts.

StoneWorks Massage & Skincare will also take part of this day along with Loreman’s Embroidery Engraving, who will have giveaways of tshirts, hats, water bottles and a grand prize drawing of a $100 gift certificate.

pers during this day.

Read, who’s always open on Sundays, said a lot of his customers go in on a Sunday saying how little there is open.

“We want to show that it is a worthwhile effort to try to get more businesses open on a Sunday,” Read said. “We hope to get more traffic for them and get them more exposure.”

Cache Elegant, a clothing and accessories store right next door, will have a drawing for a $20 certificate.

MARGARET STREET VARIETY The Corner-Stone Bookshop will offer a free Corner-Stone Bookshop print glass with each purchase of $10 or more.

Under One Roof Video Store plans to have free popcorn, free kids movie coloring sheets and a drawing for a free IntelliVision Flashback Game Console.

“It’s just a good fun way for everyone to get together and celebrate Plattsburgh,” said Becky Leonard, owner of Under One Roof Video Store.

“It’s also a way to help the businesses strive.”

Other businesses on Margaret Street include Chameleon Gallery, Glens Falls National Bank & Trust, Antique & Variety Mall (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and Furniture & Décor (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.).

FOUR MORE STREETS In regards to food, Bridge Street Auction, located on Durkee Street, will be open at 8 a.m. to serve breakfast and before an auction at 10 a.m. On Clinton Street, Peabody’s will open for lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. with Giovanni Bucci performing at 1 p.m.

On Oak Street, Plattsburgh YMCA will offer free rec swim and rock climbing from 2 to 3 p.m. as a way to give back to the community.

“We’re ingrained in this community and we just want our presence to be known,” said Mary Lou Rabideau, membership and marketing director for the Plattsburgh YMCA. “The people make the Y, and people really make a difference.”

For anyone not familiar with the area, The Greater Adirondack Ghost & Tour Company will offer walking tours of downtown Plattsburgh, showcasing all there is to see on a Sunday afternoon.

“You should support local,” Kovacs said. “You should support the businesses so they can be open on Sundays and so we can have a better downtown.”

BROAD STREET FUN Celebrating and appreciating its customers and residents and visitors of Plattsburgh, Warren Tire will have prize boxes and giveaways of tire sets, along with a cash machine, a DJ from 1 to 3 p.m., free lunch and kids’ games — putting on one of the biggest events for the day.

“We want to bring some business down here,” Boyer said. “There’s a lot of great places down here that people are missing.”

Smooth Moves will offer kids’ games, stadium cups and cotton candy on this day, which also coincides with its sixth anniversary on May 21.

Owner Joe Kovacs, who’s also part of PDA and First Weekends, said he “will support any event that happens down in Plattsburgh.”

and build a new facility at the site or find another location in the city.

Over the course of the next few months, a decision will be made on how immediate the priority is and what will be done about it.

“I’m thinking it’s going to be several years before we actually get something implemented,” Calnon said. “It’s time to bring the conversation forefront and see where it takes us.”

The mayor said a new or improved Crete Civic Center would be a project worthy of funding from the state’s Upstate Regional Economic Development program that features $1.5 billion in funding over five years. Seven regions can compete for three awards up to $500 million each in economic aid.

As for other locations, the city has seen lakefront property become available for development on both Margaret Street and Bridge Street.

The city learned that the owners of an abandoned apartment complex, formerly Lakeside Apartments at 460 Margaret St., are looking to sell the property for development. The mayor believes it’s too small for a new center, however.

The city is also considering a site off Bridge Street, which has been obtained by the city from a Syracuse developer who wanted to build a hotel there but failed. Though, there are access issues with the railroad track, as it can easily be blocked by a long train.

SIGNIFICANT HISTORY Open in 1974 by Crete brothers, Arthur and Wilfred, the Crete Civic Center was originally an ice rink that served area youth, high school, adult hockey and figure skating programs.

Running an ice rink became too expensive for the city, costing as much as $180,000 per year. By 1998-99, the city got out of the ice business when a private rink opened on Sharron Avenue near the former Plattsburgh Air Force Base.

The center laid an artificial indoor-soccer turf field on the floor in 2006.

Since then, the building has been used heavily by teams (which brought in about $150,000) and other events for members of Plattsburgh.

“It’s got a lot of strength to it, but it’s starting to show its age a little bit,” Calnon said. “How you deal with it is the biggest question.”

Pussy willows

F

irst off, I must publically thank my friends (they know who they are) for dropping by with goodies while Kaye and I sniffled and coughed through our personal encounter with the horrible stomach flu that has assailed this region.

They know Kaye’s affinity for dragon flies and gifted her with a beauty. They brought me a little stuffed horse named “Little Bits,” that I will always cherish as the official mascot for these weekly dribs and drabs in the paper.

All the o t h e r cards and good wishes were appreciated more than we can say. One of my dearest friends from a ghost town called Goshen in Peru,

by Gordie Little tapped lightly on the door last week and tiptoed into our kitchen carrying a bucket. I wasn’t sure at first if he had brought us a throw-up pail to use for our tummy tumult, or had caught some fish for our frying pan.

None of the above. It was a pussy willow, complete with roots and water and ready for the planting. I was thrilled. He and I have exchanged one or more e-mails each day for years and there are few, if any, secrets that remain unshared.

Our conversations on the computer, on the telephone and at our respective kitchen tables, run the gamut of things that occupy our twisted minds. Topics range from flying C-119 cargo planes and B-52 bombers (he’s a retired U.S. Air Force pilot) to drawing cartoons, swatting mosquitoes, antique cars, history and so much more.

He lives near a river bank and so do we.

It’s only natural that our blather would get ‘round to pussy willows. Right? The words elicit so many fond childhood memories for him and for me and, hopefully, for you as well. My mother always had a pussy willow bush or tree near the house. They were the most wonderful harbingers of spring.

We loved bringing in the branches full of socalled catkins (flowers) and the lovely soft puffs that trigger our warm nostalgia.

The official name of the kind that grows in our neck of the woods is Salix discolor, in case you felt an uncontrollable need to know.

My friend says he has planted several on his property and I was hard put to tell him why I didn’t have at least one around here.

Now I do. The moment he drove out of the yard, I grabbed a beautiful antique woodenhandled shovel some anonymous person had left here, and strolled out back. I dug a nice hole by the bird bath on the river bank and unceremoniously plopped in the pussy willow, replete with roots, attached grasses and water. I’ll watch it and talk to it and nurture it. I truly believe that we can commune with nature in so many ways.

I have learned that, unless you prune them vigorously every year, pussy willows can reach 30-feet in height. I don’t suppose we want this one to block our view of the beloved Saranac River, so we’ll keep the pruning shears handy. Some gardeners even “stump” by cutting them close to the ground each year before the leaves start to appear.

Just being able to bring the branches inside will further enhance our feeling that the seasons have indeed changed, in spite of their apparent reluctance to do so this year.

How many ways have you seen pussy willows arranged and displayed? To me, they are gorgeous stuck in a cracked vase or even an old soda bottle. Some might want to weave them into a wreath or other clever design.

I have learned that pussy willow roots are amazingly prolific and tough. Experts warn against planting them any place near your water pipes or septic system in order to stave off possible encroachment. “A word to the wise,” as my mother used to say.

I asked my friend what kind of pussy willow he brought me. His answer: “You have a Chesterfield.” I’m fairly sure that is not a genus or species, but the actual place where he found it by the side of the road and dug it up for Kaye and me.

That’s what friends do, you know.

PLATTSBURGH — Airborne Park Speedway is just days away from its first green flag on FedEx Ground Night, Saturday, May 2 at 6:00 p.m., and the fans will be the biggest winners.

The track has created a buy-one-get-one-free ticket promotion for opening night for just $15, with kids age 12 under admitted free.

In addition, Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel on Tom Miller Road in Plattsburgh will host a free car show on Saturday morning from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon for fans to meet drivers and see the cars up close before the engines rev up for racing. Votes will be tallied for Best Appearing Car awards across all four classes of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series (NWAAS) presented by Yandow Sales & Service and John Deere, with award winners to be announced at the Speedway that evening.

The opening event on Saturday night will be highlighted by a special 100-lap feature for the J&S Steel Modifieds, with green flag qualifying action beginning at 6:00 p.m. Many of the top Modified drivers were among nearly 50 total race teams at a pre-season practice session on April 25, including multi-time champions Nick Heywood, Leon Gonyo, and Bucko Branham, 2014 Rookie of the Year Jayson Criss, Canadian racers Eric Lauziere and David Bourgeois, and impressive rookies Danny Sullivan and Jamy Begor.
