Hospital Spokeswoman Jane Hooper spoke to a reporter as a staffer wheeled chairs down the hallway — which will be widened — and medical equipment spilled out from closets.

A quick tour tells a thousand words.

Invisible improvements will also be made, including plumbing, heating and air conditioning and electrical and computer upgrades, all changes that have become unavoidable as

replacement parts have become obsolete.

All of this will ensure staff can do their jobs more efficiently while ensuring patient comfort.

“The hospital provides exceptional, personalized care in spite of serious limitations,” said Medical Director Rob DeMuro. “Patients are complimentary about the care they receive, but we all recognize that the impatient care areas are simply obsolete.

Teacher arraigned on 22 felony counts Thompson faces consecutive sentences on spying charges

New Champlain National Bank CEO brings years of regulatory experience to Willsboro

By Pete DeMola

WILLSBORO — Several weeks after his arrival, Steven Cacchio, the new President and CEO of Champlain National Bank, is settling into the community quite nicely.

“It’s a tremendous town,” said Cacchio of Willsboro. “It’s very welcoming and I’m Pete enjoying it very much.”

DeMola Writer Cacchio came to the Champlain Valley most recently from Danbury, Connecticut, where he served as the COO of the Savings Bank of Danbury.

Before that, he put in stints at Alliance Bank and as a bank examiner for the Comptroller of the Currency in their Syracuse office.

That office charters, regulates and supervises national banks.

It was an experience that has given Cacchio the skills to navigate the ongoing regulatory changes in today’s banking climate, including those affecting small community institutions like Champlain National.

On Oct. 3, another will come down the pipeline governing initial disclosures on mortgage lending.

While working with vendors to work and make those changes requires significant time and expense, said Cacchio,

ELIZABETHTOWN — Willsboro resident and Westport teacher John “Jack” Thompson was arraigned on 22 felony counts of unlawful surveillance in the second degree on Friday in Elizabethtown.

Thompson, 50, pled not guilty.

The 22 surveillance counts cover a five-day time period from March 28 to April 2.

According to court documents, Thompson installed imaging devices to secretly view a person dressing or undressing, or displaying their sexual parts, at his home.

Three counts stem from March 28; two from March 30; nine from March 31; four from April 1 and four from April 2.

it’s easier if you have an experienced hand on the tiller.

Board Chairman Peter Paine applauded Cacchio’s decision to join the team.

“His breadth of experience and sound judgment will be of great value to us as we face the challenges that confront the community banking world in the years ahead,” said Paine in a statement.

When this opportunity came up, Cacchio jumped at the chance to dive into community banking, particularly at an institution with such deep roots.

Champlain National Bank was founded in 1909 in Essex County and continues to be locally owned and managed.

Unlike federal or national banks, said the newcomer, decisions at community banks are made at the local level.

Thompson attorney Reginald Bedell declined to have each of the counts read to his client.

Franklin County Acting District Attorney Glenn MacNeill requested Thompson’s bail amount be raised to $15,000 cash, or $30,000 bond, a request Judge Kevin Ryan ultimately denied on the grounds that Thompson met his previous court dates and has long ties to the region.

Due the number of counts, and the potential for consecutive sentences if found guilty, Thompson posed a flight risk, argued MacNeill.

Literacy Volunteers names new exec. director PORT HENRY — Literacy Volunteers of Essex and Clinton County, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that helps adults achieve their personal goals through literacy, announced today that it has appointed a new executive director, Marie Despres.

Prior to moving full-time to the Adirondacks in 2012, Ms. Despres was a workerowner for a cooperative bicycle-powered hauling business serving over 500 households in the Northampton, Mass area. She also served as a Social, Health, and Environmental Justice Educator for a variety of organizations in Western Massachusetts and the Adirondacks.

“Marie was working as our program coordinator when the director position came open, and we found that the best candidate was right under our noses,” said Monique Weston, board president.

Literacy Volunteers recruits and trains volunteer tutors to work one-on-one with students. Each tutor attends an accredited training program that gives them the skills to effectively tutor adult students in both basic literacy and English as a Second Language (ESL). LV then matches Marie Despres trained tutors with adult students in need of training in either Basic Literacy, English-as-a-second- language, or help with obtaining a GED© qualification.

Once a student/tutor match is made, Literacy Volunteers provides ongoing resources, learning workspaces in Port Henry, Saranac Lake, Lake Placid and Malone, and tracks progress toward educational goals.

As a community based non-profit, Literacy Volunteers of Essex/Franklin Counties relies heavily on the kindness and financial support of community members who are willing to help make a positive difference in the lives of others.

For more information contact Marie Despres at 546-3008 or director@litvol.org.

Shirley Seney, first female mayor, supervisor, passes

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH ELBA — Shirley Seney, the first female mayor of the village of Lake Placid and North Elba Supervisor, passed away Sept. 9 at the age of 83.

Seney, who was born Feb. 11, 1932, was a lifetime staple in North Elba, graduating from Lake Placid High School in 1950.

Former Willsboro supervisor and New York State Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward first met Seney when they served together as members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors, which Seney was a member of between 1996 and 2007.

“She was a firecracker,” Sayward said. “She always had a wit about her that could defuse any situation. She was loyal and hardworking for her community, fiercely fighting to make sure they got their fair share in whatever it was being discussed at county.”

Sayward said Seney was a key supporter when she decided to move from her supervisor chair into state-wide office.

“If there was an issue I could help with or she could help me with, we would talk,” she said. “She was always supporting and encouraging having more women involved in politics. I enjoyed every minute I worked with her.”

Seney started her career in public service in 1974, when she served on the Lake Placid

School Board of Education, of which she was president in 1974 and 1978. She also served as a member of the Essex County School Board Association and part of the board of directors for the Rural School Boards Association.

Seney was a member of the Lake Placid Olympic Organizing Committee from 1976 through the 1980 games, being the only female among the original signers of the deal with the IOC. “She was a first in a lot of things,” Sayward said. “She was always out doing something for her community.”

Four years later, Seney became a member of the village board, a position she held until 1990. In 1987, she was named director of the state Association of Women’s Officials.

In 1993, Seney was elected the first female mayor of Lake Placid, a position she held until 1997. She became the first female supervisor in North Elba in 1996.

To honor her, Seney was inducted into the Lake Placid Hall of Fame in 2009. In 2014, Sen. Betty Little presented her with the Woman of Distinction, Honoring Women in New York.

“She is someone who will be missed greatly by the community,” Sayward said.

Respect for Joe

oliticians, as we’ve seen over and over again will do and say almost anything during a campaign, or even in the run up to a campaign.

Yet last week we saw a candidate who could easily take command of the Democratic race just by throwing his hat into the ring.

Without even announcing a run, speculation alone has Vice President Joe Biden polling at 20 percent behind Hillary Clinton and Senator Bernie Sanders.

Vice President Biden finds himself in a difficult spot. Early speculation last year had him contemplating a run for the presidency in 2016, but the recent loss of his son Beau changed all that when the younger Biden died of brain cancer.

During an appearance on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert the emotional interview with Biden turned to the 2016 race and the possibility of a Biden candidacy.

Biden’s honest and pain filled predicament could not have been more plainly stated. “I don’t think any man or woman should run for president unless they, number one, know exactly why they want to be president and, two, they can look at folks out there and say, �I promise you, you have my whole heart, my whole soul, my energy and my passion to do this.’ I’d be lying if I said I knew that I was there,” Biden told Colbert. Biden spent much of the interview talking about Beau and how he’s dealt with the loss of his son and, years earlier, with the loss of his first wife and baby daughter in a car accident.

During the conversation, the vice president repeatedly looked down at his hands, cleared his throat and otherwise indicated he was still somewhat emotionally raw.

No one votes for a candidate based on pity, but Vice President Biden is well liked and well respected both for the person he is and his distinguished political career on both sides of the isle. Given the turmoil within the Democratic party Biden would seem to be a sure bet for the nomination given Mrs. Clinton’s difficulties and the concern over Sander’s Socialist leanings.

You have to respect a man who is honest enough to decline chasing what has been a long time dream to become president and have that dream within his grasp and yet be sincere enough to put the country and his family ahead of his ambition. That’s a very good trait for a politician and one that makes him even more desirable for the job.

Vandalism out of control in the North Country T

hroughout the course of this summer, acts of vandalism have been cropping up throughout the North Country.

Signs knocked over, stages ripped open, tombstones smashed, bricks stolen — all these acts need to be addressed and those responsible have to be held accountable for their actions.

This destructive and childish behavior has got to end.

Let’s look at Plattsburgh for example.

Just last week on Sept. 7, an act of vandalism left a large canopy purchased by the First Weekends committee on the hook for $5,000.

Erected just a few days prior, the green and white striped band shell awning was found with a 8-foot-long gash along its left side.

This band shell was put up for the purpose of entertaining the community at an affordable cost. Vandalizing it not only sabotages the tent, but the community itself.

In another instance of senseless vandalism, during Fourth of July weekend, about 100 tombstones were found overturned and broken at Riverside Cemetery.

Repairing and replacing the 65 vandalized headstones — some dating back to the 1700s — was expected to cost upward of $15,000.

This isn’t the first time Riverside has been vandalized. Within the past six years, it’s been hit at least three times.

Cemeteries may not be the most attractive thing to look at, but you have to think of the people who have family members buried in that cemetery.

Just ask yourself, would you want to visit your family member’s grave and see it smashed to pieces on the ground? Many people work hard to keep these final resting places clean and presentable, not for the deceased or themselves, but the family member who would’ve wanted it that way.

Now, let’s look at Mooers for another example.

At the last town board meeting on Sept. 8, the council brought up an issue about increased graffiti on the Mooers Volunteer Fire Department’s pump house.

Over the course of the summer, the graffiti has gotten worse and the pump house has gotten the brunt of it.

You would think people would have more respect for our local heroes who volunteer and risk their lives for the sake of the community.

Throughout this summer, the Mooers Free Library has also been victim to numerous acts of vandalism.

At the library, a summer reading program sign was zip tied to two benches in the front yard with a piece of wood on the back for support.

On Sept. 2, library workers found the sign on the ground that had been pulled out with one of the zip ties cut and the support piece of wood thrown under a tree. Luckily, the sign wasn’t broken.

Also, someone or a group of people have been taking bricks from the library stairs throughout the course of the summer.

If kids are the culprit of this, they’re only hurting themselves.

The Mooers Free - emphasis on the free - Library offers children of all ages a place to come together after school or on Saturdays, hang out with classmates or friends, use the free WiFi and be exposed to different and new things.

The library strives to offer a variety of programs for kids in order to give them something to do when they’re not in school. They also don’t mind when kids show up and sit outside just to use the free WiFi - a rarity in many small communities.

Why someone or a number of people are knocking over signs, tearing bandshells, smashing gravestones or writing graffiti on the walls baffles us and stands in stark contrast to the community spirit of the North Country.

North Country communities only have the ability to offer just so much and when someone ruins that rare offering, it takes a toll not only on residents of Plattsburgh and Mooers, but the towns surrounding them.

Vandalism is a senseless crime against us all. They say it takes a community to raise a child — the same holds true for ending vandalism.

We are convinced that someone in our readership area know the person or persons who committed these acts. They need to be identified to authorities and need to be held financially accountable.

Then, they should be sentenced to community service to fully understand just how deeply their actions undermine the community pride and spirit that holds our North Country neighborhoods together.

Enough is enough

lowers (regardless of age, who think they have a special leader, to participate in the parade with a sign honoring their leader. The signs will be judged and the leader recognized. This year two Grand Marshalls have been chosen for the parade. They are both leaders.

To the Editor: On Aug. 25, the Town Board of Ticonderoga passed Resolution #273-2015 to hold an advisory referendum asking “Should the storage building at the Ticonderoga Armory be converted for use for the Ticonderoga Police Department?” Later in the week the Town Supervisor received a letter from Commissioner RoAnn M. Destito of the NYS Office of General Services (OGS) stating that “police activity, including the departure of police vehicles on emergency calls on such a small parcel, in our view are inconsistent with the current use and would violate the deed covenant.” Commissioner Destito concluded that the OGS has “determined that the plan may not proceed as described.”

To persist in holding an advisory referendum in view of the OGS determination makes no sense. It’s time to put the Armory issue to bed and begin serious, practical study of viable options for relocating the Ticonderoga Police Department. The current process has been a waste of time, energy, and money.

Whether you are a parent or grandparent of children participating programs at the Armory, or the child or grandchild of seniors utilizing the property, the Police Department proposal has been unviable from the start. It’s a shame that it took a determination from the OGS to put the brakes on a move that made no sense from the beginning.

I look forward to the Town Board rescinding Resolution #273-2015 for an advisory referendum and moving forward with examining practical alternatives for a desperately needed police department building.

Dedicated residents help bring 100th celebration to life To the Editor: While this is the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Whallonsburg Grange, we think the last six years have been pretty great, too.

In 2009, a group of dedicated local residents, led by Ted Cornell, approached Adirondack Foundation to accept charitable contributions from the public to help carry out the first phase of the renovation; we called it the Whallonsburg Grange Building Project. Between March and December of 2009, 71 gifts were made totaling $60,000. During that time, the Civic Association reformed and ignited the lively community hub it is today.

In 2009, a personal note from the Civic Association to Adirondack Foundation said, “The renovation would not have been possible without your help.” We feel the same way about you and your role revitalizing the Champlain Valley.

Thank you for everything that you do. Best wishes for the next 100 years.

To the Editor: Going to lose your identity, people said the same thing when the schools were going thru a merger. Result: stronger and bigger identity in the area.

What happened to other villages in surrounding areas, (Ti, Westport, Elizabethtown, Keeseville) when they dissolved did they lose their identity?

No, they got a stronger town.

You aren’t going to lose fire service, snow removal the town will still provide the services. You are going to lose garbage pick up and recycling every other week. What a lose vs look at what you gain. One less tax and one stronger town. When you lose a tax common sense tells you going to be better off also, when you do away with a level of government you have one less bureaucracy to deal with.

Older people in the village complain they are struggling now. If you vote to keep the village you have no one to blame when your taxes keep going up year after year. I think if you look into it every village that dissolved there was a tax saving.

Town Court needs expansion To the Editor: I am often asked in my role as Schroon Town Justice to comment on the need for expansion and renovation of the Schroon Town Court. I think that the need is obvious and urgent as this debate has dragged on for too many years. The Schroon Town Hall which contains the court, public library and town offices was erected in 1978. Thirty seven years later the Town Court facilities are over crowded, out of date, and fraught with dangerous safety and security issues which must be addressed for the good of the community.

Court is held every Wednesday at 2 p.m. with an Essex County Assistant District Attorney in attendance on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month to prosecute criminal and traffic matters. It is not unusual to have a dozen criminal cases and forty or fifty traffic matters on the calendar, and court sessions often last four hours or more. Public access to the court as well as to the library and town offices is gained primarily through the main entrance to Town Hall off Leland Avenue. The legal capacity of the current court room is only 22 persons so the main entrance area, stairs to the second floor (library and offices) and adjoining hallways quickly become crowded stairs and corridors to reach their destination. This is an unsafe and unacceptable situation, especially for those young mothers taking their children to the library. An expanded court facility would remedy this serious safety and security issue by allowing for a separate and dedicated public entrance to the court. This separate entrance is a fundamental requirement in every study or analysis of town and village court structure and security that has been published in the past ten years. In addition to segregating court attendees from the general public, it allows for proper security screening of all those entering the court facilities, another baseline security recommendation for modern courts.

In addition to a separate, secure entrance, the court room itself needs to be enlarged beyond its current capacity to help address the chronic overcrowding issue. The current court room also lacks the recommended barrier (rail) to separate and dedicated prisoner holding space is another basic security measure that we now lack which court expansion would facilitate. The boiler rooms is currently used to detain prisoners waiting for court appearances when it is not in use as an attorney client conference room.

Facilities for court staff and file storage are also in need of expansion and improvement. The current office for the judge and court clerk is actually a converted storeroom which lacks adequate ventilation and heating. This requires that the security door barring the public from immediate access to the office be left wide open in warmer months, or the room becomes uncomfortably warm and stuffy. The court staff also lacks private rest room facilities; another basic security recommendation.

In order to access the single, public restrooms on the first floor of the building, court staff must make their way through hallways crowded with defendants waiting for court. Finally, there is inadequate storage room for older court files in the Town Hall, so they must be stored off site and are often inaccessible in the winter months.

I support, for all these reasons and many more too numerous to mention, the much needed and long overdue expansion of the Schroon Town Court facilities. It is a matter of safety and security even more than convenience, and I urge the members of our Town Council to take action now to move this project forward.

The Port Henry Knights of Columbus Council 384 held a benefit turkey dinner with proceeds going to High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care. The dinner and donations raised $725 to help support hospice services for the terminally ill throughout our local communities. We would like to thank all those who attended. Chuck Kolodzey, Grand Knight (on left), and Nappy Marcotte, Deputy Grand Knight, presented the check to High Peaks Hospice’s Development Coordinator, Ingrid Roemischer.

Old cereals

Hon. William H. Tribou III Schroon Town Justice

W

hat did you have for breakfast today?

While chewing crunchy cereal covered with sliced banana, blueberries and milk, I looked over at Kaye and asked what she ate as a child in Saranac Lake. “Oatmeal,” she responded, “Lots and lots of oatmeal. My father made it and it was terrible.

It was so thick and gross that the spoon could stand straight up in it.”

I liked cinnamon toast with homemade bread, cooked on one of those old fashioned folding gizmos that you put on top of the open stove flame. Of course, we also had waffles on that ancient cast iron cooker and you had to use a pot holder to grab the hot handle and flip them over. Pancakes were also special because my mom would always use the end of the batter to make me a pancake gingerbread man.

We were poor, but still knew how to whine and get what we wanted. My brother Jim and I always wanted the latest cold cereal advertised with singing jingles on our favorite radio programs. I remember one called “Pep.” It was “the peppy bran food.”

Another was “Shredded Ralston” and the jingle has stuck in my brain since the 1930s: “Shredded Ralston for your breakfast starts the day off shining bright, gives you lots of cowboy energy with a flavor that’s just right…..

Shredded Ralston can’t be beat.”

I’ll bet you remember “the cereal shot from guns;” “Kid tested Mother approved;” “Two scoops of raisins;” or “Snap! Crackle! Pop!” And, if there was something to cut out on the back of the box, or a special item we could order that required ten cents and a box top, we were all over it.

Breakfast cereals date to the 19th century and were touted as keeping you healthy. Some are still.

Kaye and I love oatmeal and other hot cereals on cold winter mornings. I cover mine with the bananas and berries. I add pure maple syrup made lovingly by my friends. Talk about a comfort food!

I don’t have to tell you that the world is changing and choices at breakfast are among those fast-altering preferences. Ham and eggs and bacon? I’ll take them any time, and often do on Sunday mornings after church.

Many of the cereals we cherished as kids over a half-century ago, are long gone, but you will notice dozens more on your grocery shelves. They still say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so stand back while I chow down.

any factors contribute to the time when our Adirondack trees turn the red, yellow and orange colors we adore. Months earlier, it is nearly impossible to predict the exact shades or time the leaves will change and our green forests turn the autumn colors that bring them so much attention. I have read that cool nights, how much rain has covered the limbs and roots of our trees and a whisper of magic are part of the formula.

12TH Annual Festival of the Colors

Out of the Attic Antique Appraisal Everyone has something; maybe

Can You See What Pauline Sees?

Medium Pauline O’Connell will make an appearance at the Charles R. Wood Theater in Glens Falls on Sept. 18. A reception will be held at 6:30 p.m. with a show to follow at 7:30 p.m. The cost is $35 per person. All proceeds benefit WAIT House for homeless youth. Call 480-4878 for details.

Essex County Children’s Consignment Swap Sale

The exhibit can be viewed at the Hyde Museum in Glens Falls. Call 792-1761 or go to www.hydecollection.org for information.

I would love to hear what you are planning, and my delight will not be based on the leaves having turned red, orange and yellow at the time. However, we all know, when it happens, it will be beautiful. You have my word on it� Have an event you’d like featured in my column� Email me at linda@suncommunitynews.com

Michelle Preston, who organizes the Festival of Colors isn’t particularly concerned about what the color of the leaves is on the day of the festival she has been organizing for the last 10 years.

Michelle said, “If the colors are here, we’ll celebrate them. If they haven’t turned yet, we’ll be urging them along!”

With the list of activities, and breadth of items offered by the vendors at the festival, the color of the leaves will be a minor detail.

Children will be delighted with the face and pumpkin painting, the clown — Pipsqueak, horse rides, scarecrow building contests and the Touch-a-Truck displays made available by several of the area’s service organizations.

Vendors will be selling a variety of items, including: sewn hand bags, blankets, quilts, paintings, rustic furniture and signs.

Food trucks will be selling everything from fried dough & popcorn to Michigan’s & fries; even beer and brats will be part of the fun.

In past years, there was a pie contest. This year they have added a little spice to the cooking event. Registrations are already flowing in for the Fire on the Mountain—Chili Challenge.

With all this, and live musical performances between 1 – 4 p.m., everyone should be happy, and well fed by the time they depart—few will give the color of the leaves a second thought.

To get the full list of scheduled events, slated between 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. go to Whiteface Region.com or contact Michelle Preston at 946-8855. The festival is Sept. 19, at the Festival Field, on Springfield Road in Wilmington. Admission is free with a small fee for the horse rides.

it’s Aunt Mildred’s tea set, or the fire truck your dad had as a kid, possibly a massive Beanie Baby collection. Whatever it is, dust it off and bring it in. On Sept. 26, appraisers will let you know the value, and hopefully give you a history lesson at the same time. Each item appraised is $5. Because each person has a four item limit, you should probably leave the Baby Beanie collection at home. Plattsburgh Recreation Center, Plattsburgh, NY Details 518-561-0640

AutumnÊ isÊ inÊ theÊ Air I

t’s evident in the air, with the scent of decay and a familiar old, mustiness; autumn grows closer with each passing day. Daylight hours will continue to grow shorter, and the breeze will gradually carry with it just a little more bite. Colors will come first in the bogs, as the tamaracks begin to glow with golden needles, before shedding them completely on the still black waters of thousands of backwoods ponds.

Cool mornings will greet anxious anglers with a thick carpet of fog, that often postpones their first cast until well beyond the sunrise. As always, they will wait until the fog clears, before their game will commence as usual.

Autumn typically produces a season of grand color, as it produces a natural technicolor carpet of color that spreads across the land. The season also ushers in the High Holy Days of the sporting life, which features the annual harvest of fish, fowl, and other wild game.

As salmon return to the rivers for their spawn, great flocks of Canada geese will head south to their wintering grounds, and brook trout will gather in the shallow bays begin their annual spawn parade. It is a season of grand traditions and great expectations that brings out the wild in locals and visitors alike.

The Fall season also delivers the annual Big Game Hunting Season, which opens on Sept. 27 for Early Bow and continues through the Crossbow Season opener on Oct. 14 followed by the Muzzleloading Season Opener on Oct. 17, and the Regular Big Game Season which arrives on Oct. 24.

Scheduled early on in the season will be the annual Youth Firearms Hunt, which will be hosted over the weekend of Oct. 10-12. The purpose the Youth Hunt is to introduce newcomers to the sport, while providing veterans with an opportunity to pass along their skills, knowledge and ethics to the next generation of woods-travelers. The young men and women that will participate in this season’s Youth Weekend, may very well be entertaining their mentors a decade or two down the road, at their own hunting camps.

Hunting is an outdoor activity similar to fishing, hiking, skiing, biking, or any of the activities that serve to keep us healthy, fit, and entertained throughout our life. Life skills such as fishing, hunting and foraging also provide tangible

awards in terms of fish, fowl or similarly wild fruits of the forest.

ADK Fest 2015 As hunters and hikers prepare to take to the autumn woods, they often fail to recognize the wonderful fruit of the forest that is so often underfoot.

The damp Autumn woodlands of the Adirondack region harbor far more than moose, black bear and whitetail deer.

And while there have always been a few �shroomers’ wandering through the North Woods, there has been a resurgence of interest in �shrooming in recent years.

While �shroomer’ is a common slang for those who harvest mushrooms, there is much more to the pursuit than just a meal. In fact, mushrooms are also used for medicinal purposes, art, brewing, dyes and more. Of course, caution is key, as mushrooms can also ruin your day.

Despite all of the uses for fungi, from dying yarn to brewing beer, there is no doubt the wild edibles add a certain flair to any wild meal, ranging from fresh trout in the pan to venison loins simmering on a hunting camp woodstove.

For those interested in adding a few new tools to their bag of wildwood tricks, the Adirondack Mycology Club and Paul Smiths College will be hosting the ADK FungiFest on October 3 from 9-5 at the Paul Smith Visitors Center.

The event will feature workshops, shroom walks, vendors, art displays and even a Myco-brew contest. For further information please visit www.adkfungifest.org.

ohn Cougar wrote a song a few years ago and for some reason its sticks in my head today.

Anyway, there was a meeting recently in Willsboro with Shaun Gillilland, the Town of Willsboro Supervisor, NYS DEC biologists, dam inspectors, permit and operations staff, US Fish and Wildlife, Resource Conservation and Development, local Soil and Water, Trout Unlimited, Milone and MacBroom Engineering and Sheehan Construction to go over the Boquet River Dam Removal project.

A week later, the dam was gone! The old wooden crib and plank dam was removed as soon as the ink dried on the contract.

If you remember I did an article months ago, discussing the problems associated with dams and how they affect aquatic life. Let me refresh your memory if I may.

Historic fish migration routes or passage up and down rivers are stopped by dam building. Town and village history is tied into water power and the industry it created.

Industry helped build a community, which at the time was good, BUT, that creation also stopped another form of creation, fish spawning, which was bad.

Fish spawning areas were destroyed and fish populations plummeted due to loss of habitat and over fishing. River pollution also took its toll, along with all the other environmental problems we create when we don’t think about the future and the whole.

Back to the point! The future looks bright for the landlocked salmon and trout, which will soon be able to migrate upstream to Wadhams once again.

The Boquet River Dam removal project involved the dewatering and demolition process, sediment and turbidity control and inspection, and the hauling process of the sediment and wood remains to a safe dump site.

The fish ladder was partially removed and a deck is planned for a viewing area. The concrete wall on the opposite side of the river will be reinforced and made safe. Banks will be shaped and trees and bushes planted to stabilize the disturbed areas and to provide stability and shade.

This project is BIG TIME! With the dam removed, the ecology of the river will change and fast moving waters will provide fish habitat and reduce ice buildup that created so many ice jams and flooding issues. For a river guy like me, this is history in the making.

Talking with Shaun Gillilland during the meeting I was encouraged by his foresight to think about a sports fishery future for the river. Once again, we are talking the same language. A grazing beef farmer and fishing partnership, it doesn’t get any better! It’s good when everyone is on the same wavelength!

The Boquet River may soon be a fly fisherman’s dream.

Soon we will all be able to get our bamboo rods back out on the Boquet, “When the walls come tumbling down”!

Countywide coalition aims to raise suicide prevention awareness

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Thirty backpacks dotted the lawn of the Essex County Government Center last week.

Each represented a local suicide victim who committed the deed between 2011-14.

The provocative display was part of an effort to raise awareness of the issue as part of National Suicide Prevention Week.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide rates in the United States are the highest that they’ve been in a quarter century. With a rate of 25 per 1,000, Essex County boasts double the national average of 12.6 percent (and triple the state average of 8 percent).

For every suicide that is reported, many more remain shrouded in darkness.

It doesn’t have to be this way, said Essex County Mental Health Services Director Steve Valley.

Essex County’s numbers are similar to other rural areas across the country, where isolation throws up significant barriers between access, treatment, care and overall awareness, he said.

Valley is part of a new coalition that is working to provide residents and organizations with a number of training exercises to combat the issue, including mental health first aid programs for students and the facilitation of a half-day workshop, SafeTALK, designed to raise awareness of signs that someone is considering killing themselves.

Those include a change in sleep patterns, extreme mood swings, discussing feelings of rage, hopeless and the desire to no longer be a burden on others, among others.

At the event, which unfolded on a steamy Tuesday afternoon, a group of combat vets milled about and chatted with participants, their motorcycles lined up at the curb.

Harry Treadway said while suicide is a major issue for all veterans, Vietnam vets have some of the highest numbers in the country, with some 100,000 having taken their own lives. It’s nearly double the number of those

who have died in combat.

War is isolating, said the veteran, who returned from Vietnam in 1970.

Several of his pals have committed suicide.

“Once you leave a war zone, you leave your buddies, you leave everything that you’re used to and you change,” said Treadway. “And when you come home, people look at you differently because you have changed.”

People don’t understand why you’re not the same friendly guy you once were; why you don’t want to be in crowds — why you prefer to sit with your back to the wall.

While the conflict ended 40 years ago, the scars remain for many vets who have trouble reintegrating back into society.

The same goes for veterans of current conflicts, said Treadway.

While the vet said he hates to blame all mental issues on post-traumatic stress disorder, a fair amount of vets face symptoms connected to the illness, including insomnia and nightmares.

“There’s a whole gamut of things that make the veteran very uneasy,” said Treadway.

Recognizing the signs is important, he said. But he would also like to see some basic reforms when it comes to accessibility.

The national 1-800 suicide hotline pushed by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs doesn’t offer immediate assistance unless the caller is actively considering suicide, said Treadway, while the local VA office often infuriates vets when they can’t reach someone at the office for basic needs.

Both are alienating for those who simply want someone to talk to.

“These guys wake up at 3 a.m. with flashbacks and they want to talk to somebody,” said Treadway, who said he has been on both ends of the line.

“It was a difficult time then. But it’s difficult now.”

Often, these guys don’t want to bother their pals, he explained. There’s also a front that they put up: We’ve already been through hell, ain’t nothing going to hurt us now. We can handle any-

thing thrown at us.

Even a phone line staffed with VFW and American Legion guys could save some lives, said Treadway.

Doug Terbeek, a member of the coalition, said overall, discussion related to suicide still remains taboo.

“That’s one of the core messages — just get it out of the darkness,” he said.

“If there’s someone thinking about it, that’s the best time to grab them. Hopefully that’s where the intervention can come from and save some lives.”

arrest on April 4 on one count of felony unlawful surveillance in the second degree.

Bedell said his client has been cooperative.

When Thompson was first aware of the charges while in Florida on a class trip, he called the Essex County District Attorney’s office and offered to turn himself in.

Furthermore, said Bedall, “this all comes out of one incident.”

Ryan set a pretrial conference date of Oct. 8.

Bedall said his client would not have a problem checking in with the county probation department weekly and attending future appearances, including teleconference calls.

Thompson, dressed in a light blue shirt and tan slacks, appeared downcast throughout the brief proceedings.

He arrived 30 minutes early and sat quietly in the back row of the courtroom.

Thompson remains employed at Westport Central, but has an order of protection against him from entering the building.

Following the proceedings, he briefly conversed with Bedall before leaving the courthouse.

Thompson declined to talk to a reporter.

“No comment,” he said, walking quickly to his car.

An E felony carries a penalty of from 1 to 4 years in prison.

Thompson also pled not guilty to one count of unlawful dealing with a child in the first degree, a class E misdemeanor.

According to court documents, Thompson gave, or caused to be given, alcoholic beverages to a person under the age of 21.

MacNeill was appointed special prosecutor after Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague recused herself from the case, citing a conflict of interest, said MacNeill.

At right: Westport Central teacher John “Jack” Thompson was arraigned on Friday, Sept. 11 on 22 felony courts of unlawful surveillance stemming from allegations that he secretly filmed unsuspecting victims at his Willsboro residence earlier this spring. He pled not guilty and remains free on bail. A pretrial conference has been set for Oct. 8. Thompson is pictured above, right, with his attorney, Reginald Bedell.

to do their jobs in the appropriate healing environment.”

Surgery starts this fall.

The addition of the inpatient unit will expand 20 feet out toward Park Street.

Currently, the hospital has 14 rooms with 25 beds. While the number of total beds won’t change, the number of rooms will be bumped to 18, seven of which can flex to double occupancy when required.

Hospital officials hope to construct an external shell before the snow flies. Construction will then move inside for the winter.

Hooper said while some discomforts will be unavoidable — namely noise and blocked windows — patient comfort and privacy will remain paramount.

“Bear with us for a year,” said Hooper. “The benefits are going to be so incredible on the other end.”

Site preparation is scheduled to begin this week with the removal of bushes and the half-dozen pines and maples that line Park Street south of the facility.

Hospital officials acknowledge that the tree removal may generate strong emotions within the community.

CEO Rod Boula said as a lifelong Adirondack resident, outdoors enthusiast and allaround community booster, he hates to see trees removed.

“I completely understand the public reaction,” said Boula. “However, we will be landscaping the property after construction is final. I think that the community will be very supportive of the project and its aesthetic appearance within the community.”

The 25-bed facility last saw a major expansion in 2007 when the emergency and radiology departments were renovated. Work is scheduled to be complete on the latest project in July 2017.

Elizabethtown Community Hospital launched a $10 million expansion project on Monday, Sept. 14. The twoyear project will expand and renovate the inpatient unit, which was first constructed in 1967-68.

ESSEX - The Essex Community Church will be holding a Concert for a Cure Saturday, Oct. 3, at 5 p.m. The Montpelier Gospel Choir and The Plattsburgh State Gospel Choir Praise Team will be performing. All donations are going to be sent to Sloan Kettering cancer research. The directors of these choirs would like to hold a workshop for two hours during the afternoon prior to the concert. During the workshop, participants will be taught various gospel singing techniques by learning two gospel pieces. The participants would be welcome to sing the two pieces learned in the workshop during the concert performance.

LAKE PLACID - New Windows Class at LPPL A class on the new Microsoft Windows 10 will be offered at the Lake Placid Public Library from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., Thursday, September 24. It will be followed by a class on the spreadsheet program Excel.

Windows 10 replaces the popular Windows 7 and the very unpopular Windows 8, (there was no Windows 9) and is being billed as a bridge between regular mouse and keyboard computer and touch pad systems. It presently is a free upgrade for existing Windows 7 and 8 users. Cnet has called it one of the most robust operating system rollouts in recent memory.
