LAKE PLACID Ñ On Sunday, Oct. 5, the North Country Out of the Darkness Community Walk marched through Lake Placid.

Just under 400 people participated, raising $29,000 in total so far. Ò ItÕ s an emotional day,Ó said Laura Marx, Area Director of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

The Capital RegionÕ s Chapter of the AFSP provides prevention and support programs to Essex, Franklin and Clinton Counties.

Members of the community are trained to recognize the warning signs of the possibility of suicide and how to respond to these situations.

Volunteers meet with those who have been immediately affected by suicide, providing solace and comfort in their time of need.

Those who decide to participate in the Out of Darkness Walks are usually people who have lost someone to suicide, Marx explained. Ò This provides them with an opportunity to be around people who have literally walked in their shoes.Ó Individuals walking in the event wear colors that signify what type of loss they have suffered.

For example, those who have lost a child wear white.

Marx said this provides an immediate connection with other people partaking in the event, making it known that others share their pain and understand their experience.

The walk went through Lake Placid, prompting visitors and shoppers to ask what the event was about. Ò It brings about awareness and education,Ó said Marx.

Ground broken on new Peru Federal Credit Union location

PERU Ñ The Peru Federal Credit Union broke ground this week on a new facility on the Bear Swamp Road.

The 3,500 square foot building will replace the current 1,400 square foot space on Davie Drive in Peru, currently used by the credit union. Ò WeÕ re growing, so we need our space to grow as well. This is perfect for us.Ó said credit union CEO and manager Maggy Pope.

All the construction on the new facility will be done by businesses who are member groups of Peru Federal. Fuller Excavating and EAS North East, who designed the new building, were both on hand for the ground breaking. Ò One of our main focuses was keeping it (the contractors) local,Ó said Pope. Ò We had the opportunity to get ahold of the property and show our members what weÕ re doing.Ó The new building will include an ATM machine, two drive through lanes, and additional office space for future growth.

Pope says future expansion will potentially lead to new jobs at the credit union. Ò I think itÕ s going to be a huge improvement for the credit union,Ó said Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, who was on hand for the groundbreaking. Ò Certainly this is a great step forward and itÕ s going to be amazing.Ó Construction is slated to start Oct. 15, and will run through the winter. Pope hopes to be in the new building by the end of July, 2015, at the latest.

Local women recall tales of courage, solidarity in breast cancer battles

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Jodi LaRock scanned the crowd gathered in front of the Essex County Government Center last Friday. Ò WeÕ re rocking in pink today,Ó she said.

LaRock, a breast cancer survivor, received her chemotherapy treatment at the Elizabethtown Community Hospital. She spoke earlier to a lunchtime crowd on how having a treatment facility in her neighborhood really took the edge off when it came to combating the affliction.

No facility is more deserving of funds to serve cancer patients, she said, referring to an effort to bolster the facilityÕ s treatment options. Ò It was 15 months of being loved and cared for during every step of the way.Ó Five members of what she referred to as the Ò cancer clubÓ milled about, eating donuts and listening to a man strum an acoustic guitar. Ò You have to let people take care of you,Ó she said.

Public awareness is crucial in helping both patients and family come to terms with what theyÕ re facing, said the retired ELCS teacher. Ò It helps to know youÕ re not alone.Ó One in eight women in the United States will develop invasive breast cancer over their course of their lifetime.

Anne Maher, of Lewis, graduated from chemotherapy last Thursday, just one day before last weekÕ s event.

She will start six weeks of radiation at the end of the month. Ò Early detection is the key,Ó she said. Ò There always needs to be reminders for people to get screened.Ó Maher was going to go in for a regular screening, but found a lump on her own.

Options exist for the uninsured, including a free screening on Wednesday, Oct. 8 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Essex County Health Department in Elizabethtown.

MaherÕ s mother passed from the disease, Stage 4. Now her daughters, 32 and 26, need to be extra-vigilant and start screening early.

The survivor advised patients to open up in the event of a diagnosis. Ò TheyÕ re all wonderful,Ó she said of supporters.

Several women, inspired by her story, went in for screenings. Ò If I can help one person, IÕ ll be happy.Ó Barbara Goff is a 13-year surJodi LaRock vivor.

The Lewis resident never missed a mammogram. But during a routine inspection, a doctor spotted a shadow. Ò He said, Ô We can get you in surgery in 10 days to two weeks,Õ Ó recalled Goff.

She put her foot down and was under the knife the next day to have four lymph nodes removed. Ò The worst thing was the sores in my mouth from the chemo,Ó she recalled.

For Goff, the hardest part was telling her family, three children and 12 siblings spread far and wide. Ò I had to tell them all,Ó she said. Ò No one wanted to tell the other. They said, Ô You have to do it.Õ It takes a lot of strength and courage.Ó Goff called nurses “angels” getting patients through difficult times.

Other celestial spirits included her husband, who took her to treatments at the Fitzpatrick Center in Plattsburgh, and her girl-

friends, who stepped in when he needed a day off. Ò The most you can do is stay positive,Ó she said. Ò Life is a bummer, but you just fight through it all.”

Marlene Westover, of Westport, is one of the 200,000 women who was diagnosed with breast cancer this year in the United States.

She was diagnosed in August, had a partial mastectomy last month and will go in for a meeting on Oct. 8 to learn the results. Ò They think they have it all,Ó she said.

Westover said she felt fine prior to the diagnosis and wouldn’t have noticed if it wasnÕ t for a routine mammogram.

“When the doctor called back to confirm, I was scared to death,Ó she said.

She said since her diagnosis, several women in her life and been spurred into action. Some have gone to get tested themselves, while everyone has come forward with measures of support. Ò This is not going to slow me down. IÕ m going to beat it.Ó

Essex County sticks together with solid waste negotiations

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ A decision to determine who will handle the countyÕ s trash inched closer to the landfill on Monday, Oct. 6 when Essex County lawmakers moved forward on renewing their contract with Serkil.

But there were caveats.

Supervisors brought forth several problem areas theyÕ d like to see addressed as the county prepares to renew their relationship with the Rensselaer-based hauler to handle their solid waste for the next five years, including random drug and alcohol testing for the Serkil employees who drive the county-owned trucks, clarification on the procedure if towns decide to opt out and possible compensation for SerkilÕ s use of townowned equipment.

Following a defeat of a motion to table until County Attorney Daniel Manning could hash out the details, lawmakers revisited the arguments for staying in or leaving the system that was originally implemented when Essex County had their own landfill for a brief period in the 1990s.

Serkil now collects solid waste from hub stations throughout the county before its final des-

tination, the Franklin County Landfill in Malone.

Schroon Supervisor Mike Marnell voted against the resolution to move forward with Serkil last week, but said on Monday that he would change his tune if his concerns were addressed.

Schroon serves as a transfer hub, collecting waste from Newcomb, Minerva and North Hudson.

Marnell requested that his town be compensated for SerkilÕ s use of their equipment, including a $40,000 backhoe used for compaction. He also expressed displeasure that the trucks were jointly registered and insured to both the Essex County Highway Department and Serkil, a measure that makes the county liable in the event of a mishap.

Lewis Supervisor David Blades asked for a clause permitting Lewis to gate the compactor that is used by contractors visiting the site, including some who do when the station is closed.

“It’s always difficult to engage Serkil in conversation,Ó he said.

And there was opting out.

County Attorney Daniel Manning said it would be within the countyÕ s best interests if individual towns were prohibited from hitting the ejection seat.

Ò There was a reliance by the county when we set up this system to establish certain transfer stations in certain towns that are part of the system and everyone would be part of that system,Ó he said.

Keene Supervisor Bill Ferebee said town staffers and his constituents had begun to question the status quo.

Ferebee said opting out and contracting with a private firm would save his town $70,000 per year, about five percent of the town’s annual budget.

If Keene decided to go with a private firm to reduce costs, said Ferebee, town officials would stipulate that regular hours be kept to avoid refuse being shuttled over to neighboring towns and overburdening their facilities.

Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said the transfer station in his town has the second-highest tonnage rate in the county after North Elba.

That, he said, can be attributed, in part, to towns with limited hours, like neighboring Crown Point, whose facility is only open one-and-a-half days per week.

He said he wasnÕ t against towns opting out.

But the county should recoup the initial investment costs if they decided to do so.

Ò This entire system was built on taxpayer money.Ó Newcomb Supervisor George Canon said he would oppose any towns who decided to splinter off. Ò United we stand, divided we fall,Ó he said. Ò This was a solution to a problem until the governor said you canÕ t have garbage in Essex County.

The benefit of that was we established a countywide system that has worked ever since.Ó Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow said his compaction site depends on county equipment. Ò If I opt out, the county takes it back and it will ruin the whole system.Ó Board Chairman Randy Douglas said he would work with Manning to address these issues. Ò Your concerns have been duly noted,Ó he said.

Ferebee, Marnell and Ticonderoga Supervisor Bill Grinnell voted against the resolution to move forward with the request for proposal, which has to be completed by the end of the year. Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington abstained, while Dan Connell (Westport) and Randy Preston (Wilmington) were absent.

Cuomo needs to step to the plate and debate

G

ov. Andrew Cuomo has done a lot for the North Country to boost our sagging economic fortunes, like promoting tourism, hammering out a moderate agreement on the Essex Chain Lakes, pouring cash into infrastructure development and rolling back restrictions on craft breweries, a measure that further uncorks the bottled-up entrepreneurial spirit of our fellow New Yorkers.

But heÕ s done a lot of unpalatable stuff, too, mostly when it comes to the SAFE Act and the property tax freeze, a shell game that has left rural governments in the lurch.

HeÕ s up for re-election on Nov. 4. But you were probably only vaguely aware of that because heÕ s coasted through election season without debating his opponents, the most visible platform to discuss the issues.

First he pacified the Working Families Party by whispering sweet nothings at them, promising to bring the state Senate back under Democratic control. After they rolled over, Zephyr Teachout emerged from the ashes.

She was ignored until the last days of the Democratic primary campaign, when Cuomo begrudgingly rallied his troops and made a few campaign stumps, including at the Labor Day Parade in New York, where he ignored Teachout when she tried to shake his hand.

Despite skipping the North County on her barnstorm tour across the state, Teachout won every county in the North Country except for Franklin, taking 30 percent of the Democratic vote while spending one-fortieth as much for the votes as Cuomo did.

And then thereÕ s Rob Astorino, his Republican challenger, the Westchester County Executive who formed an unlikely alliance with Teachout during the primary by debating the issues.

He, too, is being snubbed by Cuomo.

When asked last month about debates, Cuomo said they can be a Ò disservice to democracy.Ó We think that line of thinking is a disservice to democracy.

Astorino is a likeable guy with some bright ideas, like loosening the stateÕ s crippling regulatory efforts, reforming New YorkÕ s bloated Medicaid and pension system and increasing funding for vocational programs in high schools to shore up rural economies.

Too bad the public wonÕ t get a chance to hear him out.

After ignoring AstorinoÕ s call for eight debates across the state Ñ the issues facing each

region are myriad, he argued, and each needs an in-depth discussion to address their needs Ñ Cuomo finally capitulated.

Last week, the Cuomo campaign agreed to one televised debate in Buffalo with Astorino, Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate, and Libertarian candidate Michael McDermott.

But Cuomo will not debate Astorino one-onone in a televised debate, only radio. Cuomo has refused all offers to engage Astorino using the most accessible medium for voters.

This is problematic for a number of reasons, namely because the compressed formats will lend themselves to little aside from cheap shots, platitudes and talking points.

In other words, nothing that will significantly jeopardize the air of invincibility surrounding King CuomoÕ s second coronation.

We understand that from a strategic level, Cuomo is just being shrewd. With a commanding 25 point lead, a gap that shrinks to nine percent in the North Country, Cuomo has little to gain from putting himself out there, especially considering heÕ s under federal investigation for his role in disbanding the anti-corruption Moreland Commission.

But voters Ñ and we canÕ t believe this actually needs to be said Ñ have the right to expect to hear from the candidates and learn more about the issues so that they can make the most welleducated decision when they go to the polls.

In fact, according to a recent Marist poll, while half of registered voters have already decided on their pick, 45 percent think a debate would help them make up their minds, while 78 percent think all of the candidates on the ballot should be included in the debates, not just Cuomo and Astorino.

Having just one televised debate in a state where the stakes are so high isnÕ t enough.

If Cuomo can find time to go to Israel and Afghanistan on the taxpayerÕ s dime to promote democratic ideals, then he can certainly do the same right here in his backyard.

Since heÕ s running on his accomplishments Ñ balancing the stateÕ s unruly budget that has kept spending increases down and a series of economic proposals that have revitalized small industries Ñ he should have no trouble making the case for another four years.

Eight debates is too many, but voters in the North Country, those who perhaps are crippled the most by some of his most controversial policies, deserve better. ÑD

Thanks for golf tourney support

Grateful for support

Need for United Way never greater

To the Editor: I would like to thank all the teams who played in the 1st Annual Barbara Armstrong Memorial Scholarship Golf Tournament. A special thanks to the Moriah Country Club, Tom Edwards, Brian Stoddard, Dale Johnson, Frank Gilbo, Chip Perry and Aaron Tur. I would also like to thank our hole sponsors: Manfred Construction, BryantÕ s Lumber, Paul Salerno Plumbing & Heating, J P Carrara and Sons, Grover Hills Deli, BezonÕ s Bait & Tackle, CelottiÕ s Wine & Spirits, Julie Garcia, Charles Noth, and BoyeaÕ s Grocery & Deli. Thank you to Cobble Hill Golf Course, Ticonderoga Country Club and J & J Sealcoating for your donations.

We had a great turnout and look forward to seeing you all next year! Thanks again!

Rose French On behalf of the Barbara Armstrong Memorial Scholarship Fund

To the Editor: As the Child Care program for Essex County, we are fortunate to work closely with Essex County Department of Social Services (DSS) and are grateful for the support they provide. ACAP Child Care struggles every year with having enough funding. DSS has managed to find funding to help fill that gap more than once. It is with their support that we are able to continue to work toward increasing quality childcare in our county.

Working with them on everything from educating families about quality childcare and subsidy programs, to helping potential childcare providers become registered, DSS staff are dedicated, knowledgeable professionals that are committed to providing quality services.

We at ACAP would like to thank them for their continued support and for all they do to improve the quality of life for so many.

How has it come to this?

Supports Affordable Care Act

To the Editor: A glance at America today begs the question, Ò How have we come to this?Ó We have a President of the United States who is not honest with the American people regarding many issues, including Obamacare. He consistently ignores lawful procedure and is not relevant on the world stage.

The risk from Islamic terrorism is increasing, not decreasing.

WhatÕ s decreasing is the ability to protect yourself.

The Mexican border is not a border at all.

The IRS, Benghazi, and other major scandals remain unresolved.

Neither Obama, nor Hillary Clinton, nor Congressional Democrats, want the Benghazi story told, yet an ambassador and brave men died there.

We have Attorney General Eric Holder, a presidential appointee, who has selectively applied the law, depending on whether or not it fit his social justice agenda.

Another presidential appointee, John Brennan, Chairman of the CIA, lies to and spies on Congress.

Political correctness trumps all. No one dares speak out for fear of immediately being labeled racist, sexist, or homophobe.

Everything must be accepted, except Christianity and Judaism.

We have a Congress and President who ignore our extraordinary debt problem.

Our national debt is $17.5 trillion dollars and grows every day.

17.5 trillion is equivalent to spending $48 million dollars every single day for a thousand years.

Only half the people pay any taxes, yet more and more demand tax funded social assistance, a growing number not even Americans or here legally.

More than 12 percent of prime age men are not participating in our labor force. The percent for women is 30 percent. Government handout programs have created a disincentive to work.

The available handouts in Washington D.C. are equivalent to making $53,000 a year.

The current economic malaise was initiated by Congress in the 1990s, not banks.

Many of the major news outlets either slant these issues or donÕ t cover them at all.

How have we come to this?

Perhaps it’s Progressive Liberalism, which has infiltrated the Democrat party.

Five-hundred years ago, Machiavelli wrote, Ò Nothing wastes so rapidly as liberality, for even whilst you exercise it you lose the power to do so, and so become either poor or despised.Ó True then, true now, for as our welfare state increases, our ability to provide for it decreases.

Fortunately our local weekly newspapers have the courage to print opinions like this.

ItÔ s time to become involved.

To the Editor: I have two relatives whose medical conditions would make them totally uninsurable without the Affordable Care Act (aka, Obamacare). Yet some politicians still advocate repeal. Why?!

Your page 18 article last week about Aaron Woolf and Elise Stefanik didnÕ t mention her current position on health care, but past articles in the Valley News cited that she favors repeal.

Her publicity says that she stands for new ideas and new leadership, but there is nothing new or leader-like in that position. If she and her potential colleagues in Congress succeed, they must know they would be condemning a lot of people like my two relatives to death, because thatÕ s what would happen without the health care that nearly eight million Americans now have thanks to the ACA, which makes it illegal to deny insurance and care to folks with pre-existing conditions, etc.

To the Editor: The need for the services that United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps support has never been greater.

Employment, construction and tourism are down yet gas, food and utility costs are rising. Demands on public agencies, food pantries, utility funds and free clinics are much higher than last year and from people who have never requested assistance before.

State funding to public and private agencies has been slashed at the same time that requests for assistance are increasing.

United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps fill that gap.

The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. has been a part of this community for over 60 years.

Our main role is providing financial support to local health and human service programs to 41 partner agencies.

We do not just provide a blank check to these agencies; we fund specific programs with measurable outcome objectives ensuring the funds invested on your behalf are making the greatest impact on community needs.

I realize that many are facing financial pressures in their own families. But, I hope people would give as generously as they can. IÕ m sure they know someone who has been helped by one of the United Way partner agencies, a neighbor, co-worker, student, and quite likely their own family.

The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. needs your help this year. If you work for one of the 170 businesses that allow you to donate through payroll deduction, that is the easiest way.

If your employer doesnÕ t offer a workplace campaign, please ask if they will start one. If youÕ ve received a letter from the United Way please reply. Even a small amount can make a big difference in the lives of others in need in our community. Please support our local United Way. Kathy Snow Director of Development United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc.

Marge Zmijewski, ACAP Child Care

ACAP thanks To the Editor: Everyone has heard the adage that it takes a village to raise a child. In the case of ACAP Child Care, this is especially true.

With the pending loss of After School in three local schools and minimal funding for Child Care Resource and Referral, they were looking at the possibility of having to close the program.

Putting together information on the need and impact quality childcare has on families, businesses, and our community, the program went to the state legislature, our community and Essex County looking for support.

The good news is that everyone ACAP asked understood the need and stepped up to help continue these vital programs.

Senator Betty Little and her staff worked with the GovernorÕ s office to secure funding for the After School Program, assuring that over 120 children will have a safe, nurturing place to go after school.

Essex County Department of Social Services, Adirondack Trust and Cloudsplitter Foundation will also be providing funding.

Having worked closely with DSS to increase quality childcare they were aware of the need and were able to find funding to support ACAP Child Care Resource and Referral.

The agency also worked with Adirondack Trust and submitted a proposal to Cloudsplitter Foundation to help with recruitment and training to increase childcare slots. The foundation supports the efforts of organization to make lives better for the resident of the Adirondacks. Ò It was wonderful to see how everyone came together to support the need for quality childcare in Essex County,Ó said Marge Zmijewski, Program Director. Ò We all know the impact quality childcare can have on children, the parents and our community and we are grateful that so many have showed their faith in us and our programs.Ó Marge Garcia, ACAP

Proposition important To the Editor: I want to inform Willsboro voters of an important local proposition on the November ballot. It is the question of continuing to have two Town Justices. Voters donÕ t always realize that propositions, state or local, are located on the back of their paper ballot.

You must vote both sides of your ballot before returning it to the machine.

You will see a sample ballot of both sides of your ballot posted at your polling site. Look it over. The local proposition will be below the state propositions. The wording of the proposition has not been released yet, so read the proposition carefully and know the facts before you vote it.

Once you bring the ballot to the machine, and it has accepted it, you cannot return to revote if you forgot to vote both sides of your ballot. By election law, the election workers cannot remind you to vote both sides of the ballot.

There also will be a choice between two Town Justice candidates to vote for on the front of your ballot. If the proposition vote outcome is to keep two Town Justices, one of the candidates on the front with the most votes will become your second Town Justice on Jan. 1, 2015. If the voters decide to go to one Town Justice, one candidate may win, but there will be no position for him to serve.

Please exercise your right to vote on this issue. This question of one or two Town Justices impacts everyone, but ultimately it is not about the outcome of how you vote, it is about your right to participate in democracy at the local level. It is your decision as to how you vote, but the right to vote is a privilege so please donÕ t forget to exercise it.

Obesity rates getting worse

A

n array of public health officials and researchers are forecasting that the current American generation and subsequent generations may not live as long as their parents and they may also live less well.

The national obesity epidemic has provoked a wide ranging set of fundamental and costly changes. American hospitals, chain stores and public restrooms nationwide are removing wall-mounted toilets and replacing them with floor mounted toilets to support the advancing population of obese

By Scot Hurlburt Americans.

The Federal Transit Administration is researching the impact of obese riders on braking and steering systems of public transit vehicles. Oil industry officials have established that American drivers are burning a billion gallons more of gasoline each year to travel the same distance that was traveled by normal weight drivers in 1960.

New research figures have created a more ominous picture of

Kids Count

obesity in America than was previously believed.

Current estimates indicate that the cost of obesity is nearly double previous health care estimates and exceeds the costs of smoking. All of these changes have a price tag, from higher insurance premiums to wider seats at bus stops and stadiums.

The ACA allows employers to charge obese workers 30 to 50 percent more for health care insurance. The reform also provided for funds to promote weight loss by community health care investments. The reform also provided for determining the most effective practices in helping people to lose weight.

The rise of obesity has also affected American productivity, according to manufacturing researchers. Workers suffering from obesity have more pain, shortness of breath and fatigue. Obesityrelated loss of productivity is thought to cost over $30 billion dollars annually. Obese workers are less likely to be hired and much less likely to be promoted than their normal weight peers.

Currently, these additional medical costs are being born by healthy weight people, at least for now.

A Mayo Clinic research project has established that the costs of obesity have surpassed the costs of smoking.

From a cynical, hardhearted frame of reference, researchers early in obesity research assumed that overweight individuals would live much shorter lives the way that smokers had done.

For now, obese individuals are being buoyed by beta blockers that prevent heart disease, diabetes drugs that preserve health and other medicines that protect obese individuals into old age.

Clearly the current efforts to curb obesity in America are not working. We know from the success of reducing smoking from a widespread behavior by a majority of Americans to a marginalized behavior that culture wide change is possible.

It is possible to change Americans minds about overeating and the wholescale derailing of the junk food industry that has a literal death grip on America. It wonÕ t be easy to move away from well-established eating patterns that focus on fast food with little nutritional value. The obesity issue is also loaded with socially and emotionally charged issues that were not part of the smoking issue.

Gentle and thoughtful conversation with your child could be a beginning. Cooking healthy meals together can be a great way to start that conversation as well.

Youth Hunt From page 1

when accompanied by an unarmed mentor, explained Acting Regional Wildlife Manager Ed Reed. Ò ItÕ s a nice time of year to be out,Ó he said in an interview, Ò and a great chance for some of our older hunters to mentor youngsters.Ó The first hunts in 2012 and 2013 saw kids take 1,400 and 1,275 deer, respectively. Ò Their smiles tells it all,Ó said Dave Nelson, editor of the state-run Conservationist magazine.

First kills are the experience of a lifetime, he said, something that will be hard to top even after a lifetime of sporting.

He said he knew from personal experience.

With the hunts, the state also aims to bolster a sense of hunting heritage and foster a sense of appreciation for wildlife in younger generations.

This year, approximately 15,000 to 20,000 eligible junior hunters are expected to participate.

While bowhunting season remains open during the youth hunt, the state is encouraging bowhunters to instead mentor this weekend. Restrictions on small game will also be rolled back to accommodate the youngÕ uns. Ò ItÕ s tough with kids these days,Ó said Nelson. Ò You gotta catch ‘em young, a fine window when they’re interested in outdoors and real experiences. Offering these opportunities in their formative years is important to creating that lifelong education.Ó For more info on this weekendÕ s event, visit dec.ny.gov/ outdoor/46245.html.

NEW APP DEC officials are also jazzed about a new smartphone app that provides info on fishing, hunting and other wildlife-related activities across the state to tech-savvy visitors.

The New York Fishing, Hunting & Wildlife App, which was unveiled after a blow-out tourism summit in May that also saw the state increasing their outreach internationally, allows hunters to identify and locate fishing, hunting, hiking and wildlife watching sites across the state.

For those crossing county lines, the app contains mapping info that identifies borders and units that apply to regulations, permits and licenses for species.

Also included are amenity locations like boat ramps, parking and restrooms, while those with a competitive streak can keep track of their catches and harvests with a trophy case function.

Maps are cacheable, which means they can still be used as references across the wide swatch of the Adirondacks that are unserved by reliable Internet connections.

Last week, the state also rolled out a new hunting resource website tying the sport with their I Love NY tourism promotion.

State officials say New York’s sporting industry generates $4.95 billion in economic activity and sports 56,000 jobs across the state. As part of the NY Open for Fishing and Hunting Initiative, the state has allocated $6 million to support the creation of 50 new land and water access projects for sportsman that were previously inaccessible, five of which are included in the Adirondack region.

An end of the season romp

W

ell, I did it! I finally took a little trip way back into one of my favorite brook trout waters.

For several years, I had purposely avoided traveling back to the pond, even though it was known to produce very large specimens of wild brookies.

Over the years, it had always been my trusted, end of the season, trout refuge. It is a place with safe, reliable, trout waters and very few outside intruders.

It is a place where the angling opportunities can be extradorinary, and complete solitude is almost always assured since there are very few folks in their right mind who would hump a boat that far back into the woods on the odd chance they could catch a brookie.

There was also a lingering worry that the fish may no longer be there or be so large and handsome. God forbid!

ItÕ s a worry that typically occurs when you unexpectedly come face to face with an old girlfriend.

ItÕ s awkward, sweetly sentimental, and youÕ re typically left with a what if?

But since I have a long term affinity for all things finned and speckled, it was a case of simple predestination. I simply had to return to a special place, The Altar, where large, brook trout go to find their maker.

There was no argument or wavering, as there were trout waiting and I simply had to go.

After a short conservation, which was greatly enhanced by a bit of coercion, I was able to enlist the comfortable company of an old friend who had far more important duties awaiting.

I managed to get him on board with promises of large brook trout, and we set off in the early morning darkness to find the fabled waters.

The day dawned cool and sunny, and we made short work of several crucial carries as we hustled to get to the pond.

Finally, after gently placing the boat onto the aquamarine waters of the little pond, we set off in hot pursuit, and wasted no time.

But as we came around the last point of land, at the entrance to the secluded cove that harbors The Altar, we discovered another angler was already there, fishing.

We purposely stayed off at a distance and placed our halfhearted casts towards the near shoreline, while keeping a close eye on our unexpected competition.

Fortunately, the fishing was slow, the sun was bright and the lone angler finally departed.

Shortly afterward, we moved to The Altar and the first brookie was taken. We netted one, and then another.

It appeared as if old times were not for naught, as trout were again on the take and I was laughing like an imbecile.

Unfortunately, the action didnÕ t last long, and with just two,

average specimens on the stringer, our long walk home was growing longer by the minute.

Although I can be as stubborn as an old nag in a stable, I can occasionally be convinced to move to more productive waters with the proper prodding and a host of assorted threats.

Such was the case, when my friend admonished me to move to a different location, Ò Or else!Ó With just two slots taken on a stringer that holds 10, our fishing expedition was threatening to go the way of the loon, due south.

However, after dropping any further pretense of taking another fish at The Altar, I finally agreed to set off to another pond.

However, as we approached a small bay sheltering the Ô carryÕ over to the next pond, my friend tossed a line into a large jumble of logs, bogs and other assorted floating debris.

Instantly, the calm bay exploded in a fury of slashing, splashing, reel-zinging, line-running fury. Following the stiff and rather swift battle, we finally added another brilliant brookie to our stringer.

Although the day was growing late and the return carry out loomed much longer than before, we decided to stick it out and IÕ m glad we did.

The first few casts offered a signal of the piscatorial pandaemonium that was to follow.

Over the next 20 minutes, we managed to land over two dozen fish, the largest of which pushed 4 pounds or more.

Although my angling partner boated far more fish than I managed, the experience offered a fitting end to a long day which proved patience and persistence can often provide large rewards.

The long trek home was surprisingly quick and easy, as it always seems to be when youÕ re packing out a large batch of fresh brookies.

The local waters are cooling rapidly, and leaves are falling quickly. Soon, visions of the big bucks and flocks of ducks will begin to fill the sportman’s dreams.

Until then, there is still plenty of time to get out and find your own special pond, before trout season comes to an end on Oct. 15.

Wide eyed pheasant hunters I

t was a beautiful fall morning and the fall colors were everywhere. Reds, yellows browns, and of course safety orange, which showed up brightly on a few dew covered fields in Willsboro. Twelve young men and women gathered to learn gun safety, how to hunt pheasants, dog handling techniques and

By Rich Redman pheasant habitat management.

Hunting birds in tall grass and brush demands safe gun handling, and these youth were taught well by the Willsboro Fish and Game Club members. A gun safety and shooting course, taught by the Fish and Game Club was mandatory before any student went to the field. Safety orange hats and vests were the attire and hue of the day for all participants.

Both cock and hen pheasants were released previously into fields off the Middle Road. The 12 young guns were each teamed up with an adult, and then formed into groups. A dog handler took each group out into the abandoned farm fields of Brome grass, Queen AnneÕ s lace, Dogwoods and other forbs and grasses where the birds were free to run, roam and fly at will.

Working into the wind, the dogs would crisscross the field searching for the scent. When a bird flushed, if all went well, a shot would bring it down. As youth, many stood amazed, in awe as the bird flew away. Wide eyed, followed by laughter and maybe some embarrassment. Hey, we all forget to pull the trigger or miss sometime! They came to learn and that they did. Justin Spoor of Ellenburgh was the first youth to take a cock bird that morning.

The youth pheasant hunting program is successful due to its generous sponsors, Gander Mountain, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Essex County Fish and Game League and of course the Willsboro Fish and Game Club. Both the hats and vests were donated to keep the young hunters safe.

Ron Macdougal, John Oliver and Dan Sweatt of the Willsboro Fish and Game along with Noel Scashio, Todd Bailey and Joe Pray, the dog handlers made this possible. The Pheasants were supplied by the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation which raises the birds and releases them throughout sites in New York. Funding for this program comes from specified tax money which hunters pay when purchasing guns, ammunition and license fees. Birds are released on State land and private lands that are open to all hunters.

The young guns involved in this yearÕ s hunter safety and pheasant hunting program are, Savannah Brenson, Kira Crowningshield, Cody Ahrent, Sean Lincoln, and Jonny Schier of Willsboro, Tyler Stevens of Wilmington, Josh Clark of Chazy, Garrett Pray from Keeseville, Logan and Edward Brown of Ausable, Cole Glebus of Port Henry, and Justin Spoor of Ellenburgh.

All these young men and women are learning gun safety, our fishing and hunting heritage and the conservation of the fields, forests and streams of our area.

Saranac Lake sneaks past Moriah to stay atop Section VII Saranac Lake remains undefeated and tied atop Section VII

The Red Storm gave up a safety in the final minutes of the game to prevent the Vikings from scoring and putting the game into overtime.

Saranac Lake shut down the Moriah passing game with quarterback Adam Jaquish only throwing 4-for-12, but they were unable to denpub@denpubs.com stop the Vikings rushing duo of Collin Harris SARANAC LAKE Ñ The Saranac Lake Red and Troy Welch.

Harris had 17 carries for 122 rushing yards, Storm continued their undefeated streak this week. Although they were the favorite going including a 58-yard carry for a touchdown that into the Saturday, Oct. 4 game, they squeaked opened the second quarter. Welch had 20 carries for 88 yards rushing. Both players went by the Moriah Vikings for the 15-10 win. down during SaturdayÕ s game with injuries, but persisted and finished out the game.

During the PAT attempt in the 2nd quarter, there was a botched snap, but Adam Jaquish was able to recover and throw to Cody Stockwell for a two point conversion.

Saranac LakeÕ s key rusher was Dylan Kilner, who had 18 carries for 62 yards. They had multiple other targets that recorded both rushing and receiving yards.

Peru shuts out Plattsburgh on road to remain undefeated Big plays help Indians to 41-0 win

By Barrie Finnegan

denpub@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Wh en Pat Keleher left the Carrier Dome in 2001 as a Peru coach with a New York State championship under his belt, he never thought that one day he would be the head coach of an upstart Plattsburgh program hosting those same Indians.

He had his Hornets ready to play and kept the Peru offense off balance for much of the Oct. 3 game.

Eventually, big plays caught up with the Hornets, leading to a 41-0 Peru win to keep the Indians undefeated at 5-0.

Peru had to overcome two fumbles and a pooch kick which hit the up-man in the back before they could get on track.

Quarterback Blake Altizer hit Anthony Gallo on touchdown passes of 54 and 15 yards to start the scoring.

At the end of the first quarter Peru held on to a 14-0 lead.

The second saw the Hornets mounting their own drives only to be denied on key plays in the red zone.

DÕ Andre Lemieux hit Jack Goldsmith on a big gainer and hard running by Logan Harvey put the Hornets on the Peru 8-yard line, but the Indian defense stiffened and kept the Hornets out

of the end zone.

In the closing two minutes of the half, sacks by Tristan Turner and Josh Rock-Vanier had backed the Indians up but Altizer hit Troy Lawyer on a 40-yard pass to give Peru hope of punching in one more score before the end of the half.

Altizer hit Lawyer again and Gallo on passes to get the ball to the HornetsÕ half-yard line. Altizer ran it in from there as time expired.

The extra point by Carpenter was good, making it a 21-0 Peru halftime lead.

The Hornet defense played a hard-nosed first

half, holding Peru to just 54 yards rushing on 13 carries but gave up 154 yards through the air to Altizer and his receiving corps.

In the third quarter Brandon Sawyer got rolling with some hard runs, breaking tackles for consistent gains.

This once again opened up the passing game for big plays, as Altizer hit Troy Lawyer for a 30-yard touchdown and Anthony Gallo for a 46-yard scoring strike. After two missed extra points the lead was 33-0 for Peru.

Riley Sartwell and Jonathon Jardine were providing holes for Brandon Sawyer on his way to 104 yards rushing for the night. SawyerÕ s 9-yard touchdown run followed by a two-point conversion on a fake extra point attempt concluded the scoring for the night.

Peru would come away with a 41-0 shutout victory. Sawyer said after the game that they encountered a defensive scheme that took them a while to adjust to.

Although the score didnÕ t indicate too much for the Hornets, Keleher saw some positives to build on for the rest of the season.

On the Peru side, Coach Nick Damiani said they need to work on mistakes in execution but was happy to overcome those mistakes for a convincing victory.

Eagles come back from 14-point hole, top Sentinels in OT Beekmantown moves to third place at 4-1

By Barrie Finnegan

denpub@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN Ñ The Beekmantown Eagles hosted the Ticonderoga Sentinels on a wet day which provided exciting opportunities for both teams. The Eagles would come away with a 20-14 victory which required overtime to decide the winner.

Ti would come out strong with a 72-yard drive mainly on the running of Konner Bruce and Ryan Trudeau. Quarterback Garrison Hughes would score on a one yard keeper, the extra point was good and Ti led 7-0.

Beekmantown would then fumble in their own end zone where Kaleb Wiktorko would jump on the loose ball for a touchdown for the Sentinals. The kick was good again making it 14-0 at the end of the first quarter.

With 4:22 left in the half, Domanic Banish intercepted an Eagle pass which appeared to give the Sentinels good field position. But an inadvertent whistle caused the play to be nullified and Beekmantown retained possession. Both defenses were playing well and the half concluded with the Ti holding the 14-0 lead.

With the Sentinels keying on Justin Stevens, Beekmantown tried to use Stevens as a decoy on many of the first half plays. The second half would see that change as Stevens became the force that Eagle fans were accustomed to watch-

ing.

Ti quarterback Garrison Hughes was also the kick returner as well as the punt return man.

Hughes had a 70-yard kickoff return called back by an illegal block in the back penalty. He also had a huge punt return called back for the same penalty.

The Eagle offense got on track with runs by Stevens moving the ball to the Sentinal 5-yard line where QB Alex Archer scored on a 4-yard keeper. Archer paid the price for scoring, as Konner Bruce drilled him right at the goal line.

Once Archer could breath again, he walked off the field. The kick was blocked making the score 14-6 going into the fourth.

In the fourth quarter, the Sentinels drove the ball down to the Eagle 6-yard line after an interception by Marick Ross. The drive stalled there and Ti missed the field goal attempt.

The Eagles took over but failed to continue their drive and chose to punt with 5:42 left in the game. The Sentinel drive also stalled and the Eagles got the ball back with 3:18 left in the game.

After a 32-yard Stevens run down to the Sentinel 15, Archer took it to the 9-yard line on another keeper. On fourth-and-3 from the 6-yard line, Archer threw a touchdown pass to Matt Villa. The score was now 14-12 with the 2-point conversion yet to come. An incomplete pass fell to the ground at the same time as the flag for illegal contact. The Eagles had new life. Justin Stevens was not to be denied from 1 1/2 yards out, tying the game at 14 with 1:33 left.

Beekmantown held Ti and forced a punt as

time was running out. With time for one last play in regulation, The Eagles ran the hook and ladder to Stevens who went sprinting down the sideline until Konner Bruce made yet another big tackle.

The Sentinels would get the ball first in overtime. They failed to move and ended up miss-

ing a field goal attempt, wide right. The Eagles got their chance and wouldnÕ t waste it.

Justin Stevens ran the ball for 15 yards, dragging tacklers along the way. Stevens again got the call, this time running over would-be tacklers for the game winner. The final score in a very exciting matchup was 20-14 Eagles.

This time, it was the Chiefs of Saranac scoring a 43-7 win over the AuSable Valley Patriots Oct. 3.

There were ups and downs early for the Chiefs as a Caiden Goodman 80-plus yard kick return to open the game was called back, followed by a 13 play drive that ended 10 yards outside of the endzone.

That was when SaranacÕ s Dillon Clay took over.

On the second offensive play for the Patriots, Clay got into the backfield for an 8-yard loss.

Two plays later, Clay struck again, blocking the Chasm Perkett punt and falling on it for a touchdown.

In all, Clay finished with a stat in almost every defensive category: blocked punt, touchdown recovery, three tackles for loss, one sack, one forced fumble and an interception in the fourth quarter. He also caught four passes for 50 yards.

“It’s the best night I have had on the field,” Clay said. Ò I am just trying to help my team out.

Mason (Utzler) was giving me perfect passes to catch.Ó Ò He had a great game,Ó Saranac Coach Jason Daniels said.

Clay said early on he was hoping to make a play to get a positive result on the field for the at that point winless squad.

Ò We saw Caiden go down and we were all excited until we saw the flag,” he said. “We had a great drive that stalled, and we didnÕ t want it to go down like that. We wanted to get it back for the offense. Last week against Beekmantown, I jumped offsides on the first punt of the game and the next play was a touchdown. This time I was able to get a good jump and get to the ball.Ó Clay was not the only Chief to star defensively, as Dayne Rendadette had five tackles for loss, including three sacks and a forced fumble.

Mike LeBeau and Josh Santor each had a pair of tackles for loss, while Zach Daniels and Hunter Church each had one. Daniels added a fumble recovery along with one from Mason Martin.

Rafael Rivera also added an interception Utzler, in his first game under center, finished 10-for-21 with 87 yards and a score. Along with ClayÕ s 50 yards receiving, Goodman added 18 yards and a score with Church and Rendadette grabbing eight yards each.

Martin led the attack on the ground, running 25 times for 118 yards and two scores. Church added nine carries for 91 yards and two scores, while Utzler had 11 yards rushing.

“Mason was fantastic for his first start at quarterback,Ó Daniels said. Ò His throws were fantastic and we had a lot of drops. We started with a kickoff return called back and we were concerned they would get flat but they didn’t.

This coaching staff is phenomenal and they had the team prepared.Ó Daniels said he hopes the team will use the momentum from this gamer to carry them into next weekÕ s matchup with Plattsburgh High. Ò We are going to prepare very hard for PHS,Ó he said. Ò We got the monkey off our back and we get to go into the PHS game with clear heads,Ó Clay

Saranac’s Dillon Clay (17) blocks—and recovers—a Chasm Perkett punt for a defensive touchdown in the Chiefs’ 43-7 win on Oct. 3 in AuSable Valley. Clay had a standout performance, adding three tackles for a loss, one sack, a forced fumble and an interception.

said.

For AuSable Valley, William Coats finished 8-for-21 with 155 yards, one touchdown and two picks at quarterback. Sultan Sikandar had three catches for 76 yards and a touchdown, while Tyler Champine had four catches for 67 yards and Jacob Ashline added 12 yards.

Mark Whitney had 10 yards rushing for the Patriots, who had only two rushers with positive yardage (Ashline had five yards). Overall, the Saranac defense smothered the Patriots for -37 rush yards.

Nate Manning had a sack for the Patriots defense, while Thorne Bola added a tackle for loss.

Eagles soar past Blue Bombers with 3-0 win on the road Chazy leads Division II

By Andrew Johnstone

andrew@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID Ñ After 30 minutes of a back-and-fourth midfield battle between two of the divisionÕ s top three teams on Oct. 2, the Eagles found their rhythm.

Hannah Laurin scored on her way to the ground in front of the Blue BombersÕ net and Chazy (10-0-1) took control of the remainder of the game, winning the match 3-0 and building on their standings lead over Lake Placid (7-3-1). Ò Lake Placid was very solid and strong to the ball,Ó said Chazy Coach Karin Sherman. Ò They gave us a run for our money.Ó Rachel Pombio scored once and assisted on LaurinÕ s goal while Kinnan Latrem-

ore added a goal and an assist in the win.

After LaurinÕ s goal, the EaglesÕ continued pressure on the Blue Bombers kept the ball mostly on the Lake Placid side of the field.

It paid off just 90 seconds into the second half when Latremore put a long, arcing shot just over the hands of Blue Bombers goalkeeper Laura Stanton and into the top of the net for the 2-0 lead.

At the 13 minute mark, Latremore used her range to strike again, this time with a long direct kick to Pombrio, who put a header out of reach of Stanton into the left corner of the net.

Chazy would hold the 3-0 lead the remainder of the game, getting strong play from Lindsey Gilmore and Lilly Hayes while limiting Lake Placid to five shots overall.

Ò (Gilmore and Hayes) are both very young and strong and make a lot of things happen,Ó said Sherman of the two outside midfielders.

Eagles goalie Gwen LaPier made five saves for the shutout, including a quick slide to stop a Blue Bombers break on goal.

Despite being shut out, Lake Placid got strong play from Liza Marinis and Rhiannon Patterson while Stanton collected six saves in goal.

With the victory over Lake Placid and a 2-0 win over second-place Northern Adirondack (8-1-2) on Sept. 25, Chazy is in good position to finish the regular season on top of the division.

“We are finally playing up to our potential and gelling as a team,Ó added Sherman.
