This Week TASTE OF BROADWAY

By Shaun Kittle

Seton Catholic to perform musical ‘Godspell.’

shaun@denpubs.com CHAMPLAIN — On Thursday, May 2, the Champlain Telephone Company held the 2013 Technology Showcase at the Knights of Columbus on Oak Street.

It was the fi rst showcase of its kind since the company was started in 1903.

“The most important thing is that we continue to adapt to change,”said Vicki Marking, marketing manager for the Champlain Telephone Company. “We’re so much more than just a traditional telephone company.”

About 50 people showed up to the three-hour-long event, which was comprised of fi ve workshops: social media, CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Preserving history, one tile at a time

Brianna Rotella, a junior at Chazy Central Rural School, recently added this bald eagle to the dozen of ceramic tiles she has already completed for a mural depicting the military history and tourism opportunities of the North Country. Once completed, the mural will be displayed at the Plattsburgh International Airport.

CHAZY — The art room in the Chazy Central Rural High School is fi lled with ceramic tiles.

There are thousands of them, popping out of boxes, stacked on shelves and spread out on the window sills.

They are like pieces to a gigantic jigsaw puzzle, which will come together to form a mural to be displayed in the Plattsburgh International Airport sometime next year.

Once complete, the lower portion of the mural will act as a time line of military history in the region, while the top will show off everything the region has to offer—from outdoor recreation to natural beauty.

Students in Margaret Gruetzmacher’s eighth through twelfth grade classes have been participating in the project since the beginning of the school year.

At the head of the project is Bucky Seiden, who in 2008 helped local elementary school students create the ceramic mosaic that now adorns the Clinton County Government Center in Plattsburgh.

A taste of Broadway at Seton Catholic Central

By Shaun Kittle

shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A miniature version of a classic musical, “Godspell,” is coming to Seton Catholic Central High School this weekend.

“We’ve taken a full-length performance down to a more accessible size,” said Adirondack Regional Theatre founder Tom Lavin, who is co-drama coach for the performance with his wife, Pamela.

The original musical was written by Stephen Schwartz and based on a book by John-Michael Tebelak.

It opened off Broadway on May 17, 1971.

The new, accessible size, called “Godspell Jr.,” omits one song and What: Godspell Jr., the musical about a half hour from Where: Seton Catholic Central the length of the original, School, 206 New York Rd., Plattsbringing it down to about burgh one-and-a-half hours.

When: May 17–19; Friday and Other changes also inSaturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday cluded gearing the songs toward middle and high at 2 p.m.

Cost: Tickets are sold at the door school students, which means no low basses or and cost $4 for students and senior citizens and $7 for the public. high sopranos.

But even though it has been shortened, Lavin said most aspects of the musical remain intact.

The characters will still don the colorful outfi ts that helped make the original musical famous, a combination of styles Lavin described as “hippies and clowns,” and the integrity of the story has been preserved as well.

“It follows the Gospel of St. Matthew, telling the story of Jesus and John the Baptist, but just because it’s based on bible stories, it’s not necessarily for people who want to be religious,” Lavin said. “It shows life lessons and how our actions affect how we interact with other folks.”

The eight-person cast of Godspell has been practicing steadily for the past two months, squeezing rehearsals in between other obligations, like sports and academic clubs.

“It’s been different for every cast member, but we show up when we can and have fun with it,” said Dana Chapman, a twelfth-grade student who plays an apostle. “In between rehearsals you can hear people singing the songs. It’s exciting because this musical tells old stories in a new way.”

Being a musical, most of the performance is done in song styles that include vaudeville, Broadway, ballad and rock.

“It has some upbeat songs and they’re all relatable to the bible, but we still crack a lot of jokes,” said Jamyla Willette, a senior who plays Jesus. “Everyone should come because the songs are great, and you don’t see a girl playing Jesus very often.”

If you go:

Students get chance to be job shadows

By Jenna Murray

BEEKMANTOWN — Have you ever held four human skulls? That’s just what Sophia Rible, an eighth-grade student at Beekmantown Middle School, did and during her school-day, nonetheless. Sophia, along with her 14 classmates in Dawn Finley’s Home and Career Skills Class at Beekmantown Middle School, participated in the second annual Job Shadow day sponsored by The Clinton County Workforce

Council and the North Country Workforce Investment Board on March 27.

The program, which focused around the students’ interests, aims to fi nd opportunities for younger students so they can start to focus on their future now.

“There are so many opportunities to engage these students in within this region,” Elaine Reynolds, of Pfi zer Pharmaceuticals, and a member of the North Country Workforce Investment Board, said. “We understand how critical it is to involve students at an early age

and these students were enthusiastic about starting to work toward their future now.”

Schulter Systems, along with many other organizations saw the importance of a program such as this and donated their time and resources to help the students learn some very valuable lessons outside of the classroom and explore their interests. The following organizations along with Schulter Systems who participated include; Eagle’s Nest Veterinary Clinic, WIRY Hometown Radio, SUNY Plattsburgh Anthropology Department, the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts, Clinton County Sheriff’s Offi ce, Perkins and Legends Restaurant and Dr. Tom Gerner, DDS. v While Schulter systems provided transportation to each of these locations, the students were able to participate in the day-to-day operations at each facility. Thus, giving these students fi rsthand experience as to what a ‘day at the offi ce’ really means.

Jason Kozilsky, Food Production Manager

from Perkins Restaurant and Bakery and Legends Brew Pub and Grill understands the importance of job shadowing experience.

“I believe job shadowing events play an important role for our youth,” Kozilsky said. “The key is to make sure that the students are actively engaged in their interests and most important, are having fun while doing so.”

The six students who visited Perkins and Legends prepared 28 lunches for the staff of this event and their fellow classmates.

Sophia Rible was interested in forensic anthropology but wasn’t sure that she would be able to fi nd a job shadow opportunity in this area. To Sophia’s surprise, she was able to spend several hours with three professors from SUNY Plattsburgh’s Anthropology Department, where she held four human skulls and was asked to accompany the professors for local research projects this summer due to her impressive interest and education on the subject.

Hosts sought to welcome Canadian students in Plattsburgh

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Officials of Plattsburgh University are seeking community members who are interested in hosting an exchange student from a neighboring country while the student learns about American government and community services.

About 17 students and three faculty advisors from all over Canada including the Northern Tier, Yukon, Alberta and Nova Scotia will begin their program at the American Embassy in Ottawa to learn first-hand about their government. The group will then travel to Plattsburgh where they will take part in daily workshops on campus and learn about local history from July 10 through the 22. Finally, they will finish their program in Washington, D.C., where they will learn more about the U.S. government and see local landmarks.

The student exchange was arranged by the Center for the Study of Canada at SUNY Plattsburgh with the support of the Bureau of Education and Cultural Affairs, United States Department of State, and the United States Embassy Ottawa & Fullbright. It is paid through a grant from the Youth Ambassador Program.

Theresa Bennett, Home Stay Coordinator for the Youth Ambassadors Program, said they are looking for a variety of hosts in the community.

“Single, a couple, homes with children, homes without children, we have so many ways to define a family here in America and we can show our visiting students or teachers the different ways we live our lives,” Bennett said. “We usually receive students from countries that are further away like South America but sometimes we think because they are so close we know a lot about them and sometimes we actually know less.”

Canadian students will participate in the program that emphasizes community service and is designed to promote a better understanding of civic participation and the rights and responsibilities of citizens in a democracy. An important facet of this curriculum is staying with and getting to know American families.

Bennett said the students will come from all over Canada and have diverse backgrounds. Some students are first-generation Canadians, First Nations members, of Inuit descent, and multigenerational Canadians.

Bennett said the host families will need to provide their guests with accommodations, breakfast, possibly transportation to the campus and a light dinner during the 12-day stay. The group will arrive in the afternoon July 10 and leave in the morning July 22.

The participants will be involved in an intensive curriculum from

8 a.m. until 5 p.m. each day.

“It’ll be an exciting time for both the hosts and the visitors, with the Mayors Cup being held at the same time there will be a lot they can get out and do at night,” Bennett said.

Bennett said some hosts prefer to take in more than one student or faculty member.

The participating students have never been to the United States before and while they are here will focus on how to make a difference in both the government and community service.

“The kids that are coming must be able to commit to stay in their hometown for at least a year after this program so they can implement a community service program in their hometown,” Bennett said. “The U.S. is one of the leading countries in terms of community services, many other countries believe the government should be just in charge of everything.”

People interested in hosting must submit an application and agree to a criminal background check. Bennett said the committee would like to have all the matches done in early June and asks interested parties to turn in their applications by the first week of June.

For more information about the hosting opportunity contact Bennett at 564-2160 or theresa.bennett@plattsburgh.edu.

Halsey gravestone repair fund drive reopened The collapsing gravestone of Clinton County’s pioneer pastor and War of 1812 chaplain in Plattsburgh’s Riverside Cemetery was the focus of a winter collection county-wide to match a $5,000 grant opportunity from the National Daughters of the American Revolution. The $2,500 goal was quickly reached by mid-Feb and called off at $3,600 from 56 donors. But word has just been received from DAR’s Washington headquarters that the Halsey Gravestone Restoration Project was not one of the 28 grants awarded this year. Thus the “Halsey Gravestone Repair Fund Drive” is reopened to seek the remaining $1,400 needed for the project’s budget of $5,000, with restoration work to be done this summer.

The Rev. Frederick Halsey, a former pioneer pastor, educator and chaplain of Plattsburgh, NY is laid to rest in the oldest section of Plattsburgh’s Riverside Cemetery. It was brought to the attention of Jim Bailey, retired Plattsburgh city historian that Halsey’s 1838 gravestone is in danger. The side walls of this horizontal, raised slab grave are falling, and without repair the slab itself will soon break. In turn, the Battle of Plattsburgh Association unanimously agreed that this was a project that they wanted to partner with Jim on. It is the mission of the association to undertake a national education effort to publicize the significance of the Battle of Plattsburgh in the War of 1812 and our nation’s history. Reverend Halsey’s work as a Chaplain during the Battles of Plattsburgh is an important piece of our history.

Rev. Frederick Halsey received a letter of invitation in 1794 from Judge Thomas Tredwell, asking him to relocate to Plattsburgh, NY to organize a new school for the community. In August 1975, at the age 30, Halsey moved to Plattsburgh from Long

Island with two goals. First, he would begin the first church in Clinton County and minister to the local Presbyterians, meeting in the blockhouse on Cumberland Avenue.

Secondly, he would organize and open a school as requested.

The school opened in 1811 and was known as the Academy, and stood at the site of our current Plattsburgh Public Library.

Halsey went on to serve as a Chaplain for the 8th Regiment, commanded by his neighbor, Thomas Miller. Their graves in Riverside Cemetery are on either side of that of British naval commander George Downie, where a ceremony is held each year the week of September 11. Rev. Halsey’s stone house still stands on Tom Miller Road, 300 feet west of “Halsey’s Corner”, site of a bloody skirmish with the advancing British army on Sept.6, 1814 This is an appeal to individuals and organizations in the area to join us in raising the remaining $1400 needed by June 15th.

Presbyterians, educators, veterans, history buffs…all interested in preserving our Clinton County history…are invited to contribute to the “Rev. Halsey Grave Restoration” fund in the few weeks ahead so that work can begin as soon as possible.

Checks in any amount can be made out to “Battle of Plattsburgh Association,” marked “for Halsey grave restoration,” and mailed or taken to 31 Washington Road, Plattsburgh NY 12903.

BOPA’s War of 1812 Museum is open Wednesday through Saturday, 10am -3pm and located at 31 Washington Rd, on the former AFB directly behind the big planes. Visa, MasterCard, and Discover Credit Cards may also be used by phoning Tammy Brown, Museum Manager at (518) 566-1814. The Battle of Plattsburgh Association is a registered 501-C-3 non-for-profit organization in the State of New York. Receipts will be issued for all donations.

Farmers markets: shop while Truth or consequences supporting the community B

I

t’s that time of year again. Time to enjoy life without layers, time to enjoy the extended days and time to enjoy the bounty of our local farmers’ harvests. And in the North Country, it’s easy to do all three.

Last Saturday, many farmers markets throughout the region, including the Plattsburgh Farmers and Crafters Market, opened for the season. They will continue to spring up like wildflowers, and the ones that didn’t open last week will be opening soon enough, with the final stragglers ready for business by the end of June.

It’s true that many fruits and vegetables won’t be ready until later in the season, but a visit to a farmers market this time of year will reveal more than fresh produce. Beneath the bustling pavilion at the Plattsburgh farmers market, the vendors proudly stand by their wares, products like candles, jewelry, soaps, art, honey, wine, Adirondack chairs and wildflower teas. Their products might not have been harvested in the same way an apple is plucked from a tree, but they were all crafted locally, by people many consider to be family, friends or neighbors.

This time of year there is a sparse selection of straight-from-the-ground edibles available, too, such as some of the hardier leafy greens and a few plants harvested from our local forests, like wild leeks and wild ginger. As summer continues, the variety of veggies will only increase as crops reach their peak, and the best part is, their yield is not only delicious—it’s affordable.

We have written about the benefits of buying local before, and that sentiment is still as important now as it was in the past. But farmers markets aren’t entirely self-serving. Sure, the farmers and crafters benefit from an increase in sales, and why shouldn’t they? They are providing us with healthy food grown in a sustainable manner at a low cost, but the function of these markets also serves the consumer, and the community.

Take a trip to downtown Plattsburgh this Saturday and see for yourself. There is a feeling of intimacy there, a connection as the buyer speaks to the producer first hand and learns about how the product came to be. The smooth

surface of that black walnut bowl wasn’t mass produced in a factory somewhere overseas, it was made by hand from a tree that was destined for a wood chipper. The grapes used to make that wine are cold-hardy, much like the citizens of our region. There is a woman living in the town of Keene who makes soaps, bath salts and bug balms, and she will tell you all about how her concoctions can relieve stress, tension, and insect bites.

Through those interactions, farmers markets begin to take on a greater purpose and become a community gathering space where relationships, and trust, are formed between the consumer and the producer. Try speaking to one of the many farmers present and ask him or her questions. Some will offer advice on gardening, and others can tell you about their Community Supported Agriculture program, where consumers can purchase a share of the farm and receive a bounty of goods each week. In many cases, it’s like purchasing your vegetables for the year all at once. Some CSA’s offer meat, maple syrup, honey, milk and cheeses, too. And for those who need assistance, most local farmers markets accept food stamps and WIC coupons.

But the benefits of farmers markets don’t end at the pavilion. Since visitors to the Plattsburgh Farmers and Crafters Market are already downtown, many of them will grab a bite to eat or explore some of Plattsburgh’s many fine businesses while they are there. The draw of the market also draws people to those places, and in the process it neatly ties together many of the things most Plattsburgh residents desire— a thriving downtown built upon a high quality of life, high quality local products, and a strong sense of community.

The Plattsburgh Farmers and Crafters Market is held every Saturday, from 9 a.m.–2 p.m., at the Farmers Market Pavilion, located by Bridge, Durkee and Broad streets downtown.

Style and Substance: On having children Dear style & substance, My wife and I are in our early 30s and have been married for 2 years. She really seems to be all about babies and starting to press this issue with me. The thought of beginning a family terrifies me. I feel like I need to have my career on a better track before I can agree. She says it will never be the right time. How do I know that?

Starting and having a family is a big responsibility, it is also one of the greatest joys in life. You may be coming from different backgrounds and this could be where your differences lie. Your wife may see it as more of an emotional decision where you see it as a financial decision. Your discussions could start with these three ideas in mind.

Your perceptions of your family life growing up could be adding to your fear; money may have been tight, your parents may have struggled with their relationship, some of your siblings may have caused a lot of worry, etc. Her perceived family life may have been different. Instead of rehashing all of this, you may have a series of talks about what your family would look and feel like; how do you see your roles as parents? How will you support each other in careers and other responsibilities? Your areas of agreement can help alleviate some concerns about being

parents. Be confident that you already have a marriage built on compatibility and respect and expect that your parenting will be a natural continuation of this relationship.

Watch and learn. Pick role models; some young parents that are operating in a way that appeals to your values and makes sense to you. Also, watch some parenting styles that are really aggravating your worries; ask yourself why this style causes you concern and how you might avoid those parenting situations once you are in that role. Be aware, that even the best parenting preparation will bring children with their own temperaments and styles, there are always adjustments.

See where these conversations and observations bring you and your spouse. Continue to discuss where you would like to be financially and what you consider to be your roles in the financial well-being of your family. Discuss how your family finances and career choices will affect your day to day life as a family. Discussing decisions about child care, work schedules, and time as a family will help guide your decisions about when to have a child.

This is a serious decision, and you may find that your communication is improving and that having children is a calculated risk….but well worth it!

It should not be about rails versus trails

It is a shame that we are having a long public debate about rails or trails. It is a choice that should not be made. Those who advocate removing the rails are asking the State to make a decision which will satisfy some people while angering others. “Win/Lose.” Elected and appointed officials should not be expected to do that when a “Win/Win” is possible. New York State agencies and many stakeholders have already spent years creating the current Unit Management Plan which, if fully implemented, will satisfy a very wide range of interests. The next step should be full implementation.

ANCA agreed to be the pre-application sponsor for federal Strategic Transportation Enhancement Program (STEP) funding because the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society (ARPS) had done a detailed analysis to determine how much it would cost to rehabilitate the line to Class II passenger service (up to 35 miles an hour). On the trail issue, it is more complicated.

The UMP calls for a north-south trail and says it should move outside of the travel corridor to adjoining State lands and private lands (through easements) as needed to avoid obstacles. However, neither DEC nor DOT has defined this trail with specific delineations on maps or on the ground. What is needed south of Saranac Lake is detailed trail planning to determine the best physical layout, development costs, and legal and operational issues. This will require an interagency effort with key stakeholders, including local governments and recreational users.

The rails and related infrastructure should be preserved and

“The Adirondack North Country Association hereby re-states its support for the mixed-use management objectives of the Remsen-Lake Placid Travel Corridor Final Management Plan, currently in force, and further supports the retention of all railroad infrastructure which can support economic development, including tourism, through enhanced rail operations in the future.” Resolution by the ANCA Board of Directors, September 27, 2012 It should be noted that the focus of ANCA’s resolution is on the “mixed-use management objectives” of the existing Unit Management Plan (UMP). ANCA sees significant economic opportunity in the retention and further use of the rails and in the broader use of the rail corridor for trail-based recreation including hiking, biking, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, etc. All of these are acknowledged to be desirable in the UMP and that plan actually directs DOT and DEC to develop both. Rail and trail activities are economic engines that can build our local and regional economies. We need to fully understand the synergy between them and we need better planning and focused investments to ensure we can have both.

Guest Viewpoint rehabilitated. They are important economic development assets and are part of a system listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places. At the same time, the State of New York, with local government and not-for-profit partners, should complete a pragmatic implementation plan for the current UMP that clearly defines a north-south trail system to meet the needs of recreational users, including snowmobilers who have full access to the corridor during the winter.

We are pleased that ARPS recognizes that trains should be used as for recreational access, moving people and their kayaks, canoes, mountain bikes and other gear to launch points and trail heads along the corridor. Just imagine how the rail line and a trail system between communities could help our region become a stronger destination for paddlers, mountain bikers, and hikers.

Building synergy between rails and trails is a core objective of the current UMP. We don’t need to waste valuable resources and time revising that document. We need to make it work for both rail and trail related activities and for the communities along the corridor. A man I greatly respect has said, “people in the Adirondacks would rather fight than win.” While we have moved beyond that in most areas through such good efforts as the Common Ground Alliance and the Adirondack Futures Project, the rail versus trail argument is a perfect example of preferring fighting over winning.

Stephen M. Erman, President, Adirondack North Country Association

Letters to the Editor

Flagging respect To the North Countryman: Now that Sheriff Cutting has opened the topic of respect for the American flag (North Countryman May 4, 2013), I feel compelled to further the conversation with my own humble observations.

In America, each of us has the privilege to express our patriotic fervor in the proud display of our flag. However, it is a privilege that comes with responsibilities. We may proudly fly our flag all day, but when evening descends, unless she is properly illuminated, Old Glory must be lowered and folded; and she must not be allowed to languish sadly in the rain or snow; and when she has served her time and become tattered and faded, she should be given proper and respectful burial or burning. These are some of the rules of the ritual of display of the American flag I learned years ago in boy scouts.

As for those who choose to display the flag whipping in the wind from their speeding car or truck, I suggest when she separates from her standard that the patriot behind the wheel take time to stop and rescue her from the abuse and grime of the open road.

To those citizens who find these responsibilities too daunting or cumbersome I suggest you channel your patriotism into something more abstract, such as the freedom to speak your mind, a privilege we have in America; a privilege also fraught with responsibilities.

Not hardly Erman To the North Countryman: Steve Erman’s “It Needn’t be Rails vs Trails” says if the current Corridor Management Plan were to be “fully implemented,” it would “satisfy a very wide range of interests.” Not hardly. The Management Plan clearly states that there cannot be a trail parallel to the rail bed for much of its length. And from what I know of the adjacent terrain, there is no possibility for a parallel route both flat enough for bicycling and wide enough for frequent snowmobile traffic. Mr. Erman says that according to the Management Plan, the DEC and the DOT are responsible for looking for alternate routes - to include easements across private land where necessary.

Nice way to pass the buck. From my knowledge of the land on either side of the corridor, I seriously doubt whether any such routes exist. If there indeed are such routes, to date neither the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) nor the Adirondack Scenic Railroad have, with one exception offered even the slightest hint of where these alternate routes might go. That one exception vaguely mentioned a new trail between Inlet and Ra-

quette Lake - locations that are nowhere near the Corridor and cannot be connected to the Corridor.

Mr. Erman also fails to mention that their funding application is for a whopping $15.2 million. If approved, this will bring the total NYS funding for this project to over $50 million. The $15 million will only produce a 30-35 mph railroad that will take six hours to travel from Utica to Lake Placid. If that same train stops to drop off and pick up recreationists at remote locations, the trip will be a lot longer.

ANCA has promoted their funding application to local elected boards as “rail with trail”; but since the “trail” part does not appear to be possible, the overall premise of their application has little or no credibility. That leaves us with just the “rail” service that few would use - it being even slower than the 19th Centuryspeed passenger service abandoned over 50 years ago. Keeping the rails in place, however, precludes the creation of a recreational trail that will be unlike any other trail in the Adirondacks.

Based on the experience with other rail trails, this unique recreational opportunity will actually help the economy by attracting many new visitors to the area.

Thank you!

To the North Countryman: The Board of Directors and Staff of the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc., SUNY Plattsburgh Project H.E.L.P and the Adirondack Coast Visitors Bureau would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to the 561 volunteers and all those who donated over 1,250 food items on the Day of Caring. At one point we had more project then volunteers to complete them so a special thanks go out to those volunteers who step-up on the day so every project could be completed.

This year there were over 75 projects completed through-out Clinton, Essex and Franklin Counties with volunteers logging over 1,350 hours in one day. The communities’ willingness to get involved and to assist with these projects was instrumental to the overall success.

It is the opportunity to work with community minded people like all the volunteers that makes our work at the United Way so enjoyable. Local people working to help local people…..That’s the United Way. Kathy Snow Director of Development United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. Plattsburgh

Submit letters to Managing Editor John Gereau at johng@denpubs.com

2nd Amendment To the North Countryman: In her letter to the editor on May 4, Monique Weston begins by quoting the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. She then proceeds to insist that the word “regulated” somehow has nothing to do with the training of the militia, but instead she invokes the power of the courts and argues that it has to do with government management of the militia. Regardless of what the courts may say, and even though they may have the authority to say so, this cannot be the correct interpretation, else the second half of the amendment, “the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed” would not be the logical conclusion. Instead, the logical conclusion would be something like “the right of the government to keep an armed force for deployment in times of emergency, shall not be infringed.” No, the word “regulated” cannot refer to government management of the militia, and the word “militia” cannot refer to today’s State Militia simply on the basis that it is the same word, or that some prior ruling has been cited. If the Second Amendment is to be considered as a whole, the militia is meant to be comprised of the people and be managed by the people, without government interference. Although the courts have the authority to interpret the law, they are not by virtue of their position always right. They as individuals are swayed by their personal convictions and are as likely to err as any of the rest of us.

After further consideration, however, I will agree with Ms. Weston that the word “trained” is not a proper substitute for the word “regulated.” Training is only part of being “well regulated.” An individual may be well trained in the use of his firearm, and many well-trained individuals may come together as militia with intent to maintain or regain the security of their free state.

But they need to be organized. They need to be drilled and disciplined. They need to learn how to function as a cohesive unit.

In short they need effective leadership. It is both training and leadership that enables the militia to be characterized as “well regulated”.

The Second Amendment is only one of ten that are known as the Bill of Rights. Each of these amendments speaks to the empowerment and protection of the people from the government, and to the limitation of the government’s power and authority over the people. It is ludicrous to insist that the Second Amendment is somehow different, that it is intended to subject the people to additional government “regulation.” The Second Amendment is only “maddeningly ambiguous” to those who refuse to accept the possibility that it means exactly what it says, as it is written in plain English. Nevertheless, we are bound to abide by the courts’ decisions, that is, until they lose sight of the meaning of “shall not be infringed.” The people may one day decide when this has happened. This is not a threat. It is a sad prediction, based on the historical events that led to the creation of this nation. I hope I am wrong but I see an ember smoldering.

The courts would be wise not to fan it into flame.

DEC warns of muddy trails in High Peaks RAY BROOK — With the start of a new season of outdoor hiking and recreation, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) urges hikers to be cautious and postpone hikes on trails above 3,000 feet until early June when muddy trail conditions are expected to improve.

Trails and vegetation in the higher elevations are most vulnerable at this time of year when melting snow saturates thin soils found on the steep slopes of the mountains and much of the vegetation growing in high elevations is surviving on the edge of existence. Hikers can cause severe erosion of trails and signifi cant damage to vegetation.

DEC urges hikers to avoid hiking on high elevation trails during mud season. Specifi cally, all trails above 3,000 feet in the Dix, Giant and High Peaks Wildernesses but also any high elevation trails on steep slopes throughout the Adirondacks.

Hikers are also more likely to slip and injure themselves on steep, wet and muddy trails.

On the lower elevation trails, snows melt sooner, soils are thicker and dry more quickly, slopes are not as steep and vegetation is less sensitive to damage from hikers. Even lower eleva-

DEC suggests the following alternative trails for hiking, subject to weather conditions: Debar Mt. Wild Forest:, Azure Mountain, Giant Mt. Wilderness, Giant’s Washbowl, Roaring Brook Falls, Ampersand Mountain, Cascade Mountain, Porter Mountain from Cascade Mountain (avoid all other approaches), Big Slide, The Brothers, Hurricane Mountain Wilderness, The Crows, Baker Mountain, Haystack Mountain, Pharaoh Mountain, Panther Mountain and Scarface Mountain. Hikers who wait for drier conditions will protect natural resources and trails. Also, the trails will be in better condition later in the season, making for a safer and more enjoyable hike.

Registration open for Warrior run TUPPER LAKE — Registration is now open for the 2nd Annual Tupperpalooza Warrior Run. Scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 3, at Big Tupper Ski Area, The Tupperpalooza Warrior Run is a challenging 3.5 mile race made up of a mix of intense obstacles, treacherous mountain terrain and lots of mud. Participants can compete individually or as a team of four.

With nearly 200 athletes participating in the very successful 2012 inaugural run, the 2013 Tupperpalooza Warrior Run is guaranteed not to disappoint. The race committee is already at work planning a longer and tougher course with new obstacles and most defi nitely more mud. There will also be a children’s course for children 13 and under.

“Obstacle races are really growing in popularity” said Tupper Lake Events Coordinator, Michelle Clement. “It’s exciting to be able to grow a race that is not only a great experience for the athletes, but is also an event that draws a strong visitor base to the Tupper Lake community.”

Also new this year, the race will feature ChronoTrack timing provided by FastFishes.net. ChronoTrack provides timing solutions for many of the largest races in the country. All Tupperpalooza Warrior Run participants will receive timing chips at registration. This will not only provide extremely accurate race results, but will also allow for less congestion on the race course as athletes start in race waves.

“We can now keep track of just how tough our warriors really are,” says Clement.

The Warrior Run is presented by the Tupper Lake Chamber

of Commerce and is the offi cial kick-off of “Tupperpalooza,” a week long festival in TupperLake celebrating the spirit of the Adirondack summer.

Tupperpalooza runs Aug. 3-10.

Boater Safety Course to be held PLATTSBURGH — “America’s Boating Course”, a course in basic boating safety will be held on May 19 and May 20 at the Lodge at Gander Mountain Sports in the Champlain Center Mall.

The course will be approximately 8 hours in length and run from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday with a break for lunch each day.

Included in the course will be boating safety rules and procedures, navigation rules, basic boat handling, coping with adverse conditions and emergency situations, communications afl oat, trailering, personal water craft operation, state and federal regulations and more. It is a NASBLA approved course and will satisfy the New York State requirement that all personal water craft operators must have completed. In addition, the course is accepted by most insurance companies for a reduction in the cost of boat insurance.

There is a charge of $30 for books and materials. A reduced price is available for two people who wish to share a book. For more information or to register for the course contact Bob Shivokevich Squadron Education Offi cer, at 493-7251 or at rshivokevich@yahoo.com.

ROUSES POINT — Beginning June 1, the Village of Rouses Point Municipal Electric Department will again make available to residential customers of the system, who have a twelve month clear record with the utility, the opportunity to pay their electric charges by a budget billing arrangement. Based upon previous years’ usage and a projected per kilowatt hour cost including supplemental power charge, a customer’s annual electric expense will be estimated and then paid in eleven payments, with the remaining month of May used to reconcile the underpayments or overpayments.

mobile devices, internet speeds, getting video content over the internet and basic computer knowhow.

Even though each workshop’s topic was different, they all had the common goal of informing.

The social media workshop took a look at various forms of social media, like Pinterest and Facebook, and educated attendees about how those websites can be utilized for both personal and business interests.

“One of the other topics, mobile devices, mostly covered tablets and smart phones,” Marking said. “We gave them an overview on the different devices and services compare and contrast. We just want people to be more informed, so they can pick and choose what is best for them.”

There are also a lot of internet speeds available, so the showcase helped people choose the best speed based on what they use the internet for.

It explained that someone who only uses the internet for casual browsing probably doesn’t need as much bandwidth as someone who is downloading videos.

“We are an internet company, so if people want the biggest, fastest package, we’re absolutely able to sell it to them, but we also want people to get what they need,” Marking said. “We’d rather have people at a level they actually need.”

A workshop on getting video content over the internet gave people options besides satellite television for finding entertainment online, and included popular sites like Hulu and Netflix.

And tying it all together, the basic computer know-how workshop answered basic questions regarding home computers, like setting up emails, regular computer maintenance and updating antivirus software.

“As an internet service provider, we want people to see all of the wonderful things they can get on the internet,” Marking said.

“We just want to promote the use of the internet in its entirety, and people can’t fully use it unless they know about all of these things.”

Chazy Tiles From page 1

Seiden now spends a lot of her time at Chazy Central, coaching students on all things ceramic.

First, she explained, they researched the history of the military in Plattsburgh from 1800 until 1995, when the Airforce Base closed.

The students took to computers, uncovering old photographs and stories about life in Plattsburgh some 200 years ago.

Once an image is selected, it is printed and the back is colored using water color pencils.

The picture is then placed, colored side down, on a slab of clay, and once it’s removed its image remains on the clay.

This ghost image is used as a template to etch details into the clay before the back is scored.

Some tiles are only one piece, but others are rather large and consist of more than one layer.

To make sure those tiles dry evenly when fired in the kiln, clay from the thickest portions is gouged out using a loop tool—a looped piece of wire on a wooden handle.

Hundreds of the tiles are placed on racks in the kiln to dry, a process called bisquing, after which they can be glazed and fired again.

Since the tiles aren’t likely to fit together perfectly, thousands of smaller pieces were also made to fill in the gaps.

“We started working on this the first day of school,” Seiden said. “They wanted to have it finished by the summer, but it looks like the project will continue into the next school year.

It’s just too massive.”

Seiden explained that the wealth of information uncovered by the students is responsible for the ever-growing mural, which could be about 16 feet wide and consist of 39 feet of edging tile by the time it’s finished.

“We were originally going to do a 4-by-6 foot mosaic and donate it to the airport, but once we started doing research we realized there was no way we can fit all this information on a 4-by-6.

It was just too much,” Seiden said.

May 18, 2013

A project of this size costs money, though— to the tune of about $35,000.

To support it, Seiden and Gruetzmacher have applied for and received grants, but it isn’t enough.

So now they’re asking for help from the community, and donors of $5,000 or more will become a part of the finished piece and have a 12-inch tile made with their name, organization, corporate name or logo on it.

It is, according to both Seiden and Gruetzmacher, a great way to advertise while supporting art and local tourism.

And the artists receiving the support are more than eager to see the project completed.

Brianna Rotella, a junior at Chazy Central, has completed at least a dozen tiles for the mu- Bucky Seiden is working with Margaret Gruetzmacher’s art classes at Chazy Central Rural School to create a mural depicting the military history and tourism opportunities of the North Country.

pelted us with sleet and hail, it was great to be on the water again.

Over the weekend, I set off with an old guest on Lake Placid in a search for lake trout, and we managed to fi nd a few cooperative specimens. However, with water temperatures hovering around 58 degrees, the lakers were rather disagreeable, and we only managed to pull one in the boat, before gently releasing it.

However, our luck soon changed after we retreated to a small, stream where the brookies were anxious to feed. They attacked just about anything we tossed their way, and we tossed a lot of fl ies.

The weekend of angling adventures was fi nally complete after we spent a few hours fl ycasting cork poppers to big bass that were cruising the shallow shorelines of a small, private lake.

The largemouth proved to be voracious, healthy and just itching for a fi ght. I think they would’ve hit an old boot, if we could have fi gured a way to tie it one on!

On the return trip back to the lodge, we stumbled upon a small tributary stream that was chuck full of large pods of marsh marigolds.

The striking yellow fl owers, with green leaves stood in stark contrast with the black waters of the tiny stream. Nearby, we found fi ddlehead ferns that were as yet unfurled, and specimens of both painted and purple trilliums.

Wildfl owers, wild weather and wild fi sh, what more can be a fi ner fi nd for on a spring day in the Park?

A photographer huddles against the wind in an effort to get a shot for the autumn issue of the LL Bean catalog. The company has utilized the Adirondack region as a backdrop for their catalogs since 2012.

t certainly has been an interesting week to be in the woods.

I spent a few days fi shing, on both the ponds and the rivers and the remainder of my time was devoted to arranging details for an LL Bean photo shoot.

The Bean photo shoot crew encountered an interesting mix of Adirondack weather patterns. There was brilliant sunshine, calm waters and 75 degree temperatures on one day, and the next day delivered raging winds, horizontal snow and whitecaps that were so heavy the crew was almost washed off the docks.

The group’s photographer, who hails from California, claimed he had suffered through a four season’s worth of extreme weather in less than a week’s time. And then there were the black fl ies!

“Nobody warned us about the black fl ies,” he complained.

A year’s worth of weather, in a week

May 18, 2013

“We wore these silly nets which only served to trap them closer to your scalp. One bite and you’d bleed forever, and it would itch like crazy.”

“And then there was the weather!” he sighed. “We had a year’s worth of extremes in just seven days, with sun and heat one day followed by horizontal rain and 20 degrees the next.”

“I’ve never seen anything like it. It went from summer to winter in less than 24 hours! I was watching this storm come across the lake, and it looked like rain. But then I saw it was snow, and then, the whole place went white instantly. I was not happy.”

“Welcome to the Adirondacks,” I offered, “a land of extremes.”

Despite a wealth of welts, plenty of frozen fi ngers and a mess of wind tossed hair, the crew actually managed to make it through the entire week, all alive and frostbite free, and they got enough good shots to produce their entire fall catalog.

Even though there were propane heaters blowing hot air on the set the whole time, hair stylists were reduced to using blow dryers to keep their fi ngers nimble.

After putting up with models, props, locations, stylists and more than a few unhappy hair dressers, I couldn’t wait to get back on the water for a few days of fi shing.

Even though I had to deal with hordes of savage black fl ies, raging winds, driving snow, thick fog, and gale force winds that
