P’burgh gym to host powerlifting competition

By Teah Dowling teah@denpubs.com ALBANY — The line between yes and no became crystal clear last week with the passage of sweeping new legislation that requires both parties in romantic trysts to now obtain consent for something as small as a kiss.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed his Ò Enough is EnoughÓ legislation to combat sexual assault on college and university campuses statewide July 7.

The new law also requires all colleges to adopt a set of comprehensive procedures and guidelines, including a CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

PLATTSBURGH Ñ Plattsburgh International Airport continues its expansion project to combat capacity issues, incorporate international fl ights and make extra room for future growth.

In 2013, the airport started Phase I of its $55 million expansion project, doubling the amount of parking available at the airport to approximately 3,300 spaces.

They completed the parking lot at the end of 2014. Now, they’re on Phase II — expansion of the terminal.

Phase II of the $55 million expansion started October 2014 and is still taking place.

The original terminal, about 30,000 square feet, will expand out to 110-115,000 square feet.

The airport hopes to complete the expansion project by early fall 2016.

Powerhouse Gym hosts IPA-sanctioned powerlifting event

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Powerhouse International Powerlifting Meet will take place Saturday, July 18 from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Powerhouse Gym. “This is probably the first powerlifting event in our area,” said Keith Provost, co-owner of Powerhouse Gym. “I don’t ever remember one being in Plattsburgh as long as I’ve been in gyms for the last 30 years.

“It’s a very good experience for young and old and a powerlifting event is just a lot of fun.”

Promoted by Powerhouse Gym and directed

by World Champion Powerlifter Bill Crawford and Ross Saldan, owner of Montreal Barbell, this is an IPA sanctioned meet with both men and women raw and equipped divisions and both pro and amateur categories.

There’s also a men’s police, fire, EMS and military division in the IPA organization.

During the day, there will be three main lifts — bench, deadlift and squat — in each division with new equipment purchased by Powerhouse Gym, including calibrated powerlifting plates, lifting bars from Texas Power Bar and the only model lift for squats that has ever been in our area north of Albany, according to Provost.

At the meet, there will be a Atlas Ball Challenge during the breaks with a trophy, t-shirt and supplement gift. There will be raffles and a huge sale on supplements. D&D Meats will be selling food for the day and the food sales will go toward both the Plattsburgh Football Club

and Tour De Force.

“We have a really strong presence here at the gym with police, EMS, fire and military and we offer a very substantial discount for them,” Provost said. “I’m a retired correction officer, so we really strive to give those guys a good deal and that’s why we want to support the Tour De Force.”

Not only does Powerhouse Gym aim to please local heroes, but athletes, local youth and community members as well by offering the largest training center in the area north of Albany.

Provost and his fiance/co-owner Michelle Mosher opened Powerhouse Gym in August 2014, making a push for the athlete by offering a wide-range of equipment.

Powerhouse Gym carries TrueForm Runner treadmills and an indoor sled track.

They’re currently trying to make a push for CrossFit people, as well, including purchasing the necessary equipment and converting one of the rooms into a CrossFit box, which should all be completed by fall.

“We’re really striving to become a training center and not so much a ‘gym,’” Provost said.

“We’re really trying to push for the athlete.”

Not only does Powerhouse Gym offer more equipment, they also offer fitness classes, such as spin, zumba, turbo kick, pilates and CrossFit, along with Biggest Loser twice a year with Mosher.

“I think with Keith and I being pro bodybuilders we have a lot of knowledge,” Mosher said. “You can’t go wrong when you walk into this gym because it’s just a really friendly atmosphere and you have friendly people running it who are willing to be there for you.”

For the event, awards will be given to the top three in each division. It costs $75 plus IPA fee for one lift (bench or deadlift), $75 for two lifts (bench and deadlift) and $100 for all three lifts — bench, deadlift and squat.

People not wanting to powerlift but support family members or friends in the event, watch the event as a spectator or work out at the gym can pay $5 for the day.

In order to compete, the participant must be an IPA member to compete. Visit www.ipapower.com for organization info and membership forms.

For more information about the event or the gym, call 518-561-4163, email Powerhouse12901@gmail.com or visit Powerhouse Gym’s Facebook page “Powerhouse Gym.” “Our gym has more equipment, competitive rates and a better atmosphere,” Provost said.

“If you have a problem on the floor, if you’re a new or old member, Michelle and I are almost always on the floor and we’re here for you.”

Flatwater canoe and kayak race to take place in Saranac

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com SARANAC — The 16th annual Saranac Flatwater Challenge

will take place Saturday, July 18 on Saranac River at the Town of Saranac recreation facilities near Picketts Corners.

“It’s a great section of the river to paddle,” said Chas Billingsley, race director. “There’s no rapids or white water.”

Billingsley, who’s been part of the race for the past 10 years, said the down river canoe and kayak race starts on Saranac River near the recreation center, going down the river, around a buoy and back up river.

There’s three different races: a 5 mile race for the recreational class, a 9 mile race for stock canoes and 15 mile race for amateur and professional classes.

“It’s aerobic, challenging and a good way to investigate what’s going on in the area,” Billingsley said. “It’s a fun time.”

Registration will go on from 9 to 10:50 a.m. and the first race will start at 11 a.m.

There’s a $25 entry fee for the races. The Saranac Flatwater Challenge will benefit the Bill Shene Asthma & Respiratory Fund — an education-based fund that provides support for individuals in the region who suffer from respiratory diseases.

One, two or four-person canoes and kayaks are all welcome. For more information on the race, email Billingsley at billingsley.chas@gmail.com or visit townofsaranac.com.

All Ford Car Show to take place on Plattsburgh waterfront

By Teah Dowling

Because of this love of old cars, club members — DeCoste, Vice President Dick Ashfield, Treasurer Linda Gaudette, Secretary Jayne Honer DeCoste and Web Master Michael King — created this car show in 2000.

All Ford vehicles are welcome, as long as they are Ford powered.

Pre-registration costs $15 and day-of registration is $20.

For more information or to register a vehicle, call 518-236-6080 or 518-297-2482 or visit http://www.northcountrymustangclub.org.

“It’s a pretty laid back event,” DeCoste said.

“If you’re into old cars or you want to meet some new people, this will be a good and relaxing day to do it.”

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The 15th annual All Ford Car Show will take place Sunday, July 26 at 8 a.m.

Hosted by the North Country Mustang Club, the car show will take place in the large parking lot near the Naked Turtle on the Plattsburgh waterfront.

The car show will benefit the Champlain Valley Transportation Museum and North Country Honor Flight.

“We try to benefit multiple charities because we want to spread the money around since there’s plenty of places for money to go,” said Miles DeCoste, president of the North Country Mustang Club. “We never set a monetary goal, but our main goal for this year is to make sure it doesn’t rain.”

The North Country Mustang Club, originally

known as solely the Mustang Club, started in 1995 — a non-profit organization dedicated to the enjoyment and enhancement of the motor-

ing sport.

“It started as a get together to have a good time and meet new people,” said DeCoste.

Hall of Fame fiddler Gretchen Koehler to play in Saranac SARANAC — Gretchen Koehler, honored in 2012 with membership in the New York State Fiddlers Hall of Fame, will perform with one of her favorite music partners, pianist Daniel Kelly, on Sunday, July 19 at 4 p.m. at the historic United Methodist Church on Route 3.

Fiddler Koehler and jazz pianist Kelly are an unlikely duo whose music branches out widely while still remaining rooted in the old style.

Raised in the musical melting pot of the New England Contra Dance tradition, Koehler’s left hand boasts a fierce Irish brogue and her bow arm provides a distinct Old Time drive, while her feet tap out accompaniment with the joie de vivre of a native Quebecker.

New York City-based pianist Kelly is at home playing anything from jazz to classical and everything in between.

The music of Koehler and Kelly blends the nuanced lyricism of jazz piano with the raw energy of authentic Celtic and New England-style fiddling.

“Masterful,” writes Fiddler Magazine of the duo’s dynamic sound, noting that it “works for both listening and dancing.”

On their debut album, The Waxwing (2015), fiddler Koehler and pianist Kelly play a wide selection of reels, jigs, hornpipes, and aires — some old, some original — arranged as multiple, harmonizing fiddle parts woven together by an inventive and lively piano accompaniment.

The duo’s bold approach has caught the attention of the folk music establishment, and they were featured on an episode of NPR’s “The Thistle & Shamrock” showcasing the best new sounds in Celtic music.

In live performance, Koehler & Kelly’s original sound bears witness to a musical friendship that is rooted in a desire to innovate while celebrating a shared respect for folk music traditions.

The concert features old songs from the Irish, Scottish, Cape Breton, Quebec, and New England traditions, including “The Butterfly” (slip jig), “Dinky’s Reel,” “Jenny Dang the Weaver,” “The Earl’s Chair,” “Martin Wynne” and “Reel de la Pointe-au-Pic,” as well as original compositions by Gretchen Koehler, such as “The Waxwing” (aire), “The Seven Sisters” (Irish jig), “My Husband is Dancing” (scottish jig), “Glenda’s Waltz” (old time waltz) and “Frosty Hinges” (Contra Dance reel).

Tunes by current composers include “Wizard’s Walk” by Jay Ungar and “Johnny D’s” by Liz Carroll. A lithe and limber step-dancer will add visual percussion to a couple of numbers.

Concert seating is open with a suggested donation of $15/

general and $12/students-seniors. Children 15 and under attend free. For further information, please telephone 518-2937613 or e-mail hillholl@hughes.net.

Editorial

Protest an exercise in futility

A

horde of activists descended on several Champlain Valley communities last week to protest the ongoing oil train traffi c through the region.

They occupied construction sites and chained themselves to equipment in Vermont and blocked traffi c in Ticonderoga.

The protests, which drew around 100 demonstrators, were held in conjunction with others across the country as part of a week long campaign coordinated to commemorate the second anniversary of the Lac-Megantic disaster, which killed 47 people after an oil tanker became untethered and blew up part of a Canadian town.

These patchouli-scented protesters, including many from the self-admitted extremist radical organization Earth First!, called for the immediate end of oil transport through the region.

While we can fi nd common ground with their underlying sentiment — the 4,000 percent increase in traffi c through our communities over the past six years is certainly cause for alarm — we fi nd their methods counterproductive.

This is nothing but an attention grab from a group of disconnected extremists with a proven track record of spiteful sabotage.

Like the Occupy Wall Street movement, their actions are designed more to stroke their own egos than moving the needle forward on public policy.

In fact, this group has had a net negative effect with their actions by forcing local emergency service providers and law enforcement offi cials to expend their valuable resources to monitor what amounted to a temper tantrum.

Across the lake in Vergennes, fi refi ghters had to extract an activist who chained himself to a natural gas truck on its way to International Paper in Ticonderoga.

Not only was this wildly irresponsible, it was also ignorant considering natural gas is a cleaner alternative to fuel oil, the usage of which at IP is widely supported by green groups.

It was also dangerous considering its cargo was full of fl ammable material.

Authorities had to use power tools to extract the irresponsible extremist, a measure that very well could have led to Lac-Megantic, Part Deux without the proper training.

These are the very same fi rst responders who would respond to a possible rail disaster, putting life and limb at risk while working to quench a lake of fi re.

And they’re understaffed across the board.

Departments in many of the Champlain Valley communities dotted along these railways are in crisis.

A pair of listening sessions to discuss the problems facing the Elizabethtown-Lewis Ambulance Squad earlier this month, for instance, drew only three people.

Willsboro and Essex offi cials have said their squads will fl atline without a massive restructuring.

The common refrain in Keene Valley is “What if no one came?”

And Crown Point, one of the communities located along the railway, doesn’t even have an ambulance squad anymore.

They closed six months ago because they couldn’t fi nd a medical director.

Not only are fewer and fewer people stepping forward to volunteer for these local agencies, but departments are scrambling to afford the equipment that will keep our people safe in the event disaster does strike, from the expensive foam used to quell oil-fueled fi res to the ambulances that will transport our injured heroes to hospitals.

In all, nearly a dozen state and local agencies responded on both sides of the lake last week to tend to the protestors.

It wasn’t free.

As these extremists did victory laps for their tantrums, our men and women in uniform quietly went on to their next assignment.

As if their publicity stunt wasn’t enough, these groups are now asking the community to foot their legal bills.

Here’s an idea: How about these agencies stick them with the bill for the equipment repairs and overtime?

That would be the sensible thing to do.

We agree that oil by rail poses a signifi cant threat to our lakefront communities.

But we also feel confi dent that the persistent pressure that our elected offi cials, including Sen. Chuck Schumer and Gov. Andrew Cuomo, continue to apply to both the railway industry and federal and state regulators, progress is being made on ensuring the safety of our communities.

Protests are fi ne. But when they do nothing but stretch the resources of our hardworking agencies, perhaps it’s time to not put earth fi rst, but rather your fellow citizens. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Problem with rising tide

Hang onto your firearms and pray

To the Editor:

To the Editor:

In their editorial “A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats,” Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau sound like ignorant politicians running for public offi ce instead of intelligent news analysts.

Keeping in mind that it takes no credentials to be a politician, I would expect something more informed from educated newspapermen.

As sad as it is, most low-wage employees are so because they just don’t have many marketable skills. There are hordes of uneducated, illiterate employees nationwide demanding that the government take care of them by mandating a high minimum wage. The situation has been totally politicized by the Obama administration’s pandering to its allies, especially the SEIU. I have repeatedly stated before in letters to this newspaper: It is not the duty of American businesses to provide a living wage for low skill employees.

The reason that low-wage employees can not earn a living wage is because of negligent mismanagement of the economy by government -- at all levels -- over the years by uncredentialed, incompetent politicians who have allowed the cost of living to be determined by political contributors instead of any kind of supply and demand.

Instead of minimum wage-pandering by minimal-intelligence politicians, low marketability persons need help to acquire better work skills through better education. Unfortunately, the dumbing down of the U.S. education system by the same incompetent politicians makes this almost impossible. Schools used to teach reading, writing and arithmetic. Now they teach “free Willie,” “Save the whales,” “Sue your employer” and so on.

The irony is that freeing Willie and saving whales requires a scientifi c knowledge of reading, writing and arithmetic!

If the benefi ts of a high minimum wage for unqualifi ed employees are so great, why not raise the minimum to, say, $100 an hour? Or, even better, $500 or more, an hour. Or, why not pay them as much as professional baseball players? That would really raise the tide!

David Safrany Half Moon Bay, CA

Two letters in the July 11 issue need to be addressed: ”More Gun Control” by Jeff Canton in Long Lake and “Controversial Ideas of Right to Bear Arms” by Edward Pontacoloni of Lake George.

Both were well written.

Thank you guys. But you are totally missing the why of gun control.

Repeat after me: The new world order- the new world order.

Come on now, repeat it 98 more times.

The United States has an estimated 42 to 43 percent of the privately owned fi rearms in the world. No government can force its will on a population that is armed.

That is the only reason we have the Second Amendment - to overthrow the government when they refuse to uphold the constitution.

Look at the statue in front of the UN Building. It is a revolver with the barrel twisted like a pretzel!

Do you think this think this just might mean something? The United Nations stated on national TV that their goal is to got the world population down to one billion.

At last count, we were over six billion. Their plans will make Hitler look like a Sunday school teacher!

Just before Comrade Obama was elected, the UN Secretary General asked him if he would consider becoming the First new World Order President. He answered, “I would be honored!”

May God have mercy on us because no one else will. Hang on to your fi rearms and pray.

George Phillips, Chestertown

Community Action Angels thank foundations PLATTSBURGH — The JCEO Community Action Angels take great pride in recognizing the following foundations for their generous support of the BackPack Program.

We were extremely fortunate to have received a matching grant of $7,500.00 from the Charles R. Wood Foundation and a $2,500.00 grant from The Foundation of Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital in Plattsburgh, as well as a donation of $501.00 from the Plattsburgh Noon Kiwanis Club.

With their support we will be able to combat childhood hunger in our area.

The main goal of JCEO Community Action Angels’ BackPack Program is to ensure that chronically hungry children receive suffi cient food, especially on the weekend, when school isn’t in session.

This project is funded entirely by donations and we rely solely on volunteers to implement the program.

The BackPack Program serves 90 children who have been identifi ed by school personnel as chronically hungry or food insecure.

The project runs for 30 weeks throughout the school year, from October until June. Our focus area is on the three elementary schools located within the City of Plattsburgh (Bailey, Momot and Oak).

Children receive a two day supply of food: two breakfast items, three entrée items, fresh or canned fruit, snacks and juice. The majority of food items are family size portions.

On a bi-weekly basis, children receive a milk card to be redeemed at Stewart Shops for a gallon of milk. This food helps to combat childhood hunger and the negative effects insuffi cient food intake has on a child’s health.

This is a vital program because young children should be able to focus their attention on learning and not on their empty stomachs. Early

learning is instrumental in building a fi rm educational foundation that promotes long-term academic success, leading to future meaningful employment opportunities.

A 2011 Child Food Insecurity study revealed that as many as 17 million children nationwide struggle with what is known as food insecurity.

To put it another way, one in four children in this country is living without consistent access to enough nutritious food to live a healthy life.

According to Child Trends Data Bank, “Inadequate food intake in children is associated with a number of serious health, behavior and cognitive defi cits.

Children who are food-insecure are in poorer health and are more likely to be developmentally “at-risk” than non-food-insecure children. Children in food-insecure households have more stomach aches, frequent headaches, and colds than children who are in food-secure households. Higher rates of hospitalization, iron defi ciency anemia, and chronic health conditions are reported among food-insecure children.” More information can be found at http://www.childtrends.org.

Here is your chance to make a difference in the life of a child and help fuel a child’s future! It only takes $167.00 to sponsor a child for one year.

All donations, either big or small, will be accepted and are used to purchase the food that the children receive.

For more information or to make a donation to this program, please contact Kathy Bishop at 561-6310. With the support of our community we will be able to expand this program and make a difference in the lives of local children.

Thirty-six runners participated in the Battle of the Boquet Trail & Kayak Race on Saturday, July 11 in Willsboro. Plattsburgh’s Tim Durney, pictured above, took first place. He completed the 3.5 mile run and 2 mile kayak race in 49 minutes.

Stop the vandalism

M

ost of these “Little Bits” are what I call fl uff—light and fun. This one is not. It’s about vandalism in cemeteries and how I believe it to be abhorrent. Most of you are familiar with a recent story about w i d e s p r e a d damage and destruction in the historic Plattsburgh Riverside Cemetery.

When I learned of what happened there, my stomach churned. I

by Gordie Little looked at Kaye and we said almost simultaneously, “Who would do a thing like that?” Who, indeed. Our next thought was, “Can the police discover the person or persons who perpetrated this heinous act and, regardless of age, will those responsible be prosecuted to the full extent of the law?”

I have not spoken with Plattsburgh City Police about it. I am no longer an everyday reporter except in a peripheral way. However, with extensive experience gathering and delivering news to the North Country, I have ways of getting information. I will be reading, watching and listening to all who report on this Riverside desecration and will use whatever meagre infl uence I can muster to bring this case to a reasonable conclusion.

My friends know my passion for local history. Kaye and I have wandered through countless cemeteries in this region and elsewhere. We believe graveyards are windows to the past.

Finding the oldest cemetery in any place we visit, is like dessert after a satisfying meal. We ponder over the names, dates and epitaphs.

We have stood among the monuments and stones in Gettysburg, closed our eyes and listened for the high-pitched voice of our 16th president delivering his brief but powerful address in November of 1863. We have walked with reverence through Arlington National Cemetery and shed a tear at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We have been fi lled with emotion as we stood before the eternal fl ame honoring John F. Kennedy. We have scanned every stone in the mostly forgotten graveyards at Cades Cove in Tennessee, pondering the grief of parents who lost entire families during the 1918 infl uenza pandemic. We have done the same at the Post Cemetery along Route 9 south of Plattsburgh. We have replicated that exercise with bona fi de historians throughout Clinton County, from the Northern Tier to the southern boundary as well as east and west. We have studied the records painstakingly recorded by Hugh and Woody McLellan many decades ago, along with more recent updates by Clyde Rabideau, Sr. We have traveled to Scotland and Ireland to fi nd the graves of our ancestors and cherished gravestone rubbings done in London and throughout England by my late Aunt Freda.

We have meandered through rows upon rows of interesting above-ground burial vaults in New Orleans. In short, we fi nd cemeteries to be like libraries, revealing much about those who came before. Our righteous anger wells when we hear stories such as the recent vandalism at Riverside Cemetery on Steltzer Drive in Plattsburgh.

It would take more space than this to recount every story I know about such horrors. I recall vandals stealing skulls from a Peru cemetery vault and parading about like the demented creatures they appeared to be. I remember stones tipped over in area cemeteries as youth carried out macabre acts over the years. I know of a case where grave stones were bulldozed into a local river.

I salute my friends from the Clinton County Historical Association who tagged the gravestones of Civil War veterans recently. I applaud those who have rediscovered and reclaimed rural cemeteries that had fallen into disarray.

I will not be satiated until all who were responsible for the destruction at Riverside Cemetery are brought to justice and the damage is repaired. Someone knows who the culprit(s) are and I pray that they will step forward to help us bring it to some kind of satisfactory end.

Thank you for indulging me and thanks for all the hard work police and others are doing in this case. Please try with all the strength and will you can muster to instill respect in your children so they won’t be tempted to do such dastardly deeds.

Kent-Delord House Museum launches campaign to replace roof

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Imagine leaving your legacy on top of a cedar roof for future generations to see.

The Buy-A-Shingle Campaign launched this month as a way to put money into the Kent-Delord House Museum’s roof replacement fund.

The museum needs to raise another $30,000 for their $60,000 project to replace the cedar roof — a historic trademark of the house — with a unique fundraiser that leaves more history than just the house.

“Not only are you supporting a house that’s an icon in Plattsburgh history,” said Don Wickman, director of the Kent-Delord House Museum, “but you’re also leaving your legacy behind for about 50 years.”

When the main part of the house was built in 1797 and renovated in 1811 by Henry Delord, cedar was the material used on the roof.

When William H. Miner purchased the house for a museum in 1924, he renovated it extensively with copper.

The copper lasted until 1980 when high winds inflicted damage on the roof. At that time, the museum’s Board of Directors decided to go back to the material initially on the roof and raised the money themselves.

Now, it’s time to replace the cedar again, only this time with a substitute.

Instead of using cedar that lasts approximately 25 years, Wickman discovered a sustainable composite, a plastic fiberglass, that

looks similar to cedar and lasts 25 years longer.

“It’s a point of using new technology and keeping some historical accuracy,” Wickman said. “We have actually fooled people.”

So far, the museum has raised half of the funds and replaced some of the roof with the new, carefully picked shingle.

When picking the composite, the museum had to choose from nine different colors and they chose the color closely resembled to weathered cedar since cedar after three years turns gray.

The new cedar-like shingles not only come with easy instructions on how to place it properly on the roof, but a small section on the back where one can leave their legacy.

“We thought it would be interesting as a fundraiser for people to buy a shingle that they can call their own,” Wickman said. “You can commemorate anything you want.”

Wickman created this fundraiser as a new way for people can honor a friend or relative.

People can purchase a shingle for $10 in remembrance or a unique gift to celebrate birthdays, holidays, births, weddings, retirements, graduations, memorials, anniversaries, promotions, accomplishments, teachers, pets, confirmations and anything else one would like to commemorate.

The purchased and personalized shingle will be placed on the roof both won’t be visible until the roof is replaced 50 years from now.

“It’s like we’re creating a time capsule,” said Wickman.

The fundraiser will continue on through to the Battle of Plattsburgh.

To learn more or to purchase a shingle, call 518-561-1035, visit kentdelordhouse.org or visit the Kent-Delord House Museum at 17 Cumberland Ave. Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

TOP RIGHT: Kent-Delord House Museum director Don Wickman shows the difference between regular cedar and the sustainable composite replacing the cedar in the future. This new composite will last 25 years longer than regular cedar but will still embrace the house’s history.

Branham, Quenneville take “Battle of Plattsburgh”

PLATTSBURGH — Airborne Park Speedway’s “Battle of Plattsburgh” fireworks and stock car racing special proved to be worth the one-week delay on Saturday, July 11 with three divisions of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series presented by Yandow Sales & Service and John Deere putting on six competitive feature races followed by a fireworks display. Winners were Bucko Branham, Vince Quenneville Jr., Tylor Terry, Brent Jarvis, Chris LaVair, and Kris Clark.

Hometown driver Branham became the first repeat winner of the season in the J&S Steel Modified division in the opening 50-lap race.

Ryan McLean led the first dozen circuits before rookie Danny Sullivan of Morrisonville took over following the first restart. Sullivan opened up a large lead before Branham tracked him down.

Branham caught Sullivan at lap 30 and gave chase; Sullivan survived the final restart on lap 39, but Branham stayed with him.

The cars touched wheels with three laps to go, and Branham was able to gather his car up before Sullivan, making a pass on the backstretch to take the lead and go on to the win.

Tylor Terry of Morrisonville posted his first win of the season in the first 25-lap Key R-D Trailer Sales Renegade feature. Terry, in his new role steering the #08 car for veteran driver-turned-owner Andrew Bordeau, had an entertaining battle with Moriah’s Jim McKiernan that saw the pair trade the lead five times. Terry and McKiernan finished 1-2, followed by point leader Jason McClatchie, Shawn Duquette and Zach Rabtoy.

Brent Jarvis of Rouses Point scored an unlikely career-first win in the second Renegade 25-lapper; Jarvis was forced out of the first race by a broken rear end and his team hastily rebuilt the driveline of the car as the other divisions’ races were being completed. After nearly missing the start of the second race, Jarvis ran to the win, leading all but the first two laps. Duquette completed a solid night in second place, followed by Richie Turner, McKiernan, and McClatchie; original third-place finisher Jimmy Bushey was disqualified in post-race inspection for a weight violation.

The Burgh • July 18, 2015 | 7 Chris LaVair of Gabriels and Kris Clark of Keeseville continued their dominance in the Busch Beer Mini-Modified division, splitting twin 15-lap features. LaVair was named the winner over Clark in the first race after a photo finish; Pete Blaney finished third ahead of Tyler Irwin and Harold LaVair. Clark trounced the field in the second race, followed by Blaney, Eddie Bresette, Chris LaVair, and Dale O’Neil.

The third annual ACT International 500 Weekend returns to Airborne on July 18-19 with two days of action. Tickets start at $20 for qualifying and preliminary races on Saturday, $35 for main events on Sunday, or $40 for two-day admission.

‘Enough is Enough’ From page 1

uniform definition of affirmative consent, a statewide amnesty policy and expanded access to law enforcement to ensure the safety of all students attending colleges in the state.

“I am proud to sign into law the most aggressive policy in the nation to fight against sexual assault on college campuses,” Gov. Cuomo said in a statement. “With this law, we will better protect every student that attends college within our borders and I am proud New York is leading the way once again.”

The legislation was first proposed by the governor in January and will extend the preventive policy and protections adopted

by SUNY campuses to all university campuses statewide.

These requirements also contain an amnesty clause.

Students reporting incidents of sexual assault or other sexual violence will be granted immunity for certain campus policy violations, including drug or alcohol abuse.

Campuses will also be required to annually submit aggregate data on reported incidents of sexual violence and their adjudication and handling to the State Education Department.

By creating this full-time, one-hat position, this allows Blaise to investigate sexual violence reports if the report doesn’t turn into a criminal investigation and the student doesn’t feel comfortable working alongside University Police.

“The fact that they created this position as a full-time position speaks to the fact that we know that those statistics don’t tell us everything and we want to create an environment and culture where students feel safe to speak out and seek resources that we have on campus,” Blaise said. “I’m hoping that message will be heard and seen by students.”

“MANDATORY REPORTERS” SUNY Plattsburgh, so far, has most of the requirements the legislation requires, including mandatory reporters.

fer them to different services.

“There’s an issue with sexual assault on every campus,” O’Connell said. “A lot of sexual assaults go unreported, unfortunately.”

O’Connell believes the reason why some sexual assaults go unreported is because communication about sex, to some people, has been very unclear, which brings in the long and extensive definition of affirmative consent provided by SUNY. INCREASED CLARITY Along with what was mentioned above, the affirmative consent definition addresses possible misunderstandings, such as how silence or lack of resistance cannot be interpreted as consent, consent may be initially be given but withdrawn at any time and consent cannot be given when a person is incapacitated.

Paul Smith’s College, one of the first private colleges to join the initiative in the beginning of May, implemented this definition along with the other requirements and more.

“It’s our intent to fully support and map to the initiative,” said Shannon Oborne, chief marketing officer at Paul Smith’s College. “It’s really strong and it’s going to make New York a terrific and safe place for students.”

Other than the campuses, the new law will create a new unit within the State Police called the “sexual assault victims unit,” with a focus on advanced training in responding to sexual assaults and related crimes that will also provide assistance to campus police or local law enforcement, as well as training to college campus communities.

Lastly, a commitment of $10 million to help combat campus sexual assault through various partners will be split in the following manner: $4.5 million to rape crisis centers to provide services and resources to students, $4.5 million to State Police to create sexual assault victims unit and $1 million to colleges and universities.

SUNY Plattsburgh, Clinton Community College and Paul Smith’s College all said they hope to create a new consent culture in time through this initiative and their changes.

“We don’t want our students to tolerate or accept this type of behavior,” Hartman said. “It’s a work in progress, but it’s a problem here and we need to do something about it.”

“There’s an issue with sexual assault on every campus. A lot of sexual assaults go unreported, unfortunately.”

Chrisa O’Connell

STEP UP! “If we have one case a semester, it’s an issue, so yeah we have an issue,” said Bryan Hartman, vice president of student affairs from SUNY Plattsburgh. “It’s a cultural issue in society and we need everyone’s help in changing this issue; this law helps.”

In the near future, SUNY Plattsburgh hopes to complete the following goals: Create the best practices for faculty and staff in regards to sexual violence prevention education, increase educational training in the classroom, provide every department and academic advisor with resources (Resource Brochure for victims of sexual violence), create social media items to increase awareness around campus and push Step UP! Step UP!, a prosocial behavior and bystander intervention program that educates students to be proactive in helping others, started last year but is just being presented to student orientations this summer.

This program teaches students to take notice, figure out the appropriate response to a sexual violence situation and how to act.

Through this, they hope to raise awareness of helping behaviors, increase motivation to help, develop skills and confidence when responding to problems or concerns and ensure safety and well-being of self and others.

“It’s not asking anyone to put themselves into harms way,” Hartman explained. “But it is telling them that we should care and we should act.”

NEW STAFFER Along with Step UP!, SUNY Plattsburgh hired a full-time Title IX coordinator, Butterfly Blaise.

Blaise started working part-time in November 2014 but started full-time July 1, taking one of the many hats worn by Lynda Ames, affirmative action officer and professor of sociology at SUNY Plattsburgh.

Airport

From page 1 “The current terminal really cannot comfortably accommodate more than one large aircraft at a time, so even with our current services, it’s not unusual if one flight is delayed,” said Garry Douglas, president and CEO of the North Country Chamber of Commerce. “We have reasons to be confident that additional air service will develop here when we have to capacity.”

The expansion includes increased ticketing space, security checkpoint space, baggage claim space, space for car rentals on-site, office space for airport operations and security and concourse space.

It also adds additional passenger porting check bridges, dedicated facilities for concessions, bilingual signage for Canadian travelers and a new checkpoint relocated from its current locations downstairs on the first level to upstairs.

“The terminal will be vastly different,” said Christopher Krieg, airport manager. “We’re touching about every piece of space in the terminal as part of the expansion project.”

Plattsburgh International Airport decided to expand the airport for two reasons: capacity issues and future growth.

When the airport first opened in 2007, it only had 40,000 enplanements, but the number of enplanements grew by year.

In 2013, they had 150,000 enplanements and 140,000 last year.

“We’ve certainly exceeded the space available in the existing terminal,” Krieg said, “which is the driving reason why we’re expanding it.”

With the high amount of enplanements, they wanted to expand the terminal in away that they could address not only the space issues, but to plan for airline and air service growth, which is why the airport also decided to add a customs facility.

With the implementation of the new customs facility, it will allow international flights out of Plattsburgh.

Although the airportÕ s name is Ò Plattsburgh International Airport,” they do not currently have on-site customs to be able to be an international airport. After this expansion, they will be.

The North Country Chamber of Commerce has been conducting a survey on what people would like to see added to the airport — destinations they would like to travel to. There have been ongoing discussions about those locations, but Krieg prefers not to go into details at this time.

However, the airport will be incorporating a few international destinations most attractive to the community.

In other words, if you see something, you must say something.

From sexual violence to stalking, every employee on campus, Hartman said, is a mandatory reporter, at least under Title IX and the Violence Against Women’s Act amendments (VAWA).

Under the Clery Act, however, they’re still seeking verification.

Along with the campus’ mandatory reporters who must report all Title IX violations of sex-based discrimination and sexual harassment, there are confidential reporters of counseling and health care centers, such as Clinton Community counselor Chrisa O’Connell.

O’Connell, by law, is required to let the Title IX Coordinator, Ed Klein, know that there was an assault reported but can deny disclosure of any information in regards to the victim unless the victim wants to.

In terms of assisting the victim, she’s allowed to listen and re-
