Dustin C. Hill, 21, Plattsburgh, was taken into custody by the Plattsbur gh Police Department Aug. 7 only hours after the body of 32-year-old Jason Larabie, Plattsburgh, was found next to a parked vehicle near a public boat launch shortly before 6 a.m.

CHAMPLAIN — The Northeastern Clinton Central School District boar d of education mulled possible ways of saving money at their Aug. 2 meeting.

The discussion was partly prompted by the new , statewide, 2 per cent pr operty tax cap, according to board president Daniel Letourneau.

“This is a monumental hill to climb,” Letourneau said. “Our expenses are increasing and our revenue is decreasing seriously.

Talk about a perfect storm.”

Board vice pr esident Linda Gonyo-Horne said the district might consider the example of the Newcomb Central School, a small institution which cannot be centralized due to its remoteness.

“They opened their school up to international students,” Gonyo-Horne said, adding Newcomb benefitted fr om tuition and cultural exchange.

First Choice Power Wash’s business is cleaning up

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com ROUSES POINT — Clif f Sterling prides himself on his attention to detail. It's a trait he picked up during his 17-year career in the Vermont Air National Guard.

“It's something they taught me and it's something that's stuck with me,” Sterling said.

That particular quality is something he's carried into his business, First Choice Power Wash. Sterling started the pr essure-washing business in 2006, drawing on his experience cleaning military equipment while stationed in Iraq. Little did he know First Choice Power Wash w ould g row i nto t he full-time business it is today.

“I came home, started it part-time and it just took off,” Sterling said. “And, here we are, five years later.

I just thought this would be a part-time job I could do to work towar d r etirement.

Now, it's a booming business.”

First Choice Power W ash handles a variety of customers, said Sterling, including residential, commercial, agricultural and even aviation.

“We even take care of the Vermont Air National Guard's F-16s and the planes at the museum at Camp Johnson [in V ermont],” he said.

Sterling’s business seasons really begins to pick up

in the beginning of April, with many homeowners wanting to clear off the dirt and grime that accrues over the winter months. Restaurant owners also find spring to be a good time to br eak down their equipment and have it cleaned — a service First Choice Power W ash can do as well.

“We’ve cleaned a lot of restaurant hoods, getting out all the gr ease and mak-

ing them look new again,” said Sterling. “W e even clean f arm e quipment l ike manure spreaders, barns.

You name it. If it's dirty , we'll clean it.”

As summer winds down, Sterling said he is seeing many homeowners looking to get their homes spr uced up before the snow falls. It’s a gr owing business with growing demand, he said.

“We could work seven

days a week if we wanted to. W e’re busy , which is good,” said Sterling, laughing. “I mean, why do it yourself when we can do all the work for you?”

The whole-house tr eatment consists of “everything up to the curb,” said Sterling.

“So, your gutters ar e cleaned inside and out,” he said. “We wash your windows; we squeegee them.

We do your decks. It’s everything.”

“And, you don't have to call us to do whole house washings. If you want just spots cleaned like one side of your house or your gutters, or your r oof, we'll do that,” Sterling added.

It’s how well his business can guarantee a clean house, that Sterling feels brings him mor e and mor e customers each year.

CHAMPLAIN — The village will host its annual Champlain Village Fest next Saturday, Aug. 20.

The day’s events will kick off with a childr en’s fun r un starting at 8:30 a.m., followed by a 5K run at 9 a.m., starting at the village park on River Street.

The village will host a rededication ceremony at Paquette River Park on Main Street at 1 1:30 a.m. The cer emony will mark r ecent improvements made to the park, including the installation of a new table, benches and a barbecue grill.

Champlain EMS will also of fer blood pr essure screening, and the neighboring Samuel de Champlain History C enter w ill b e o pen for public to view historical exhibits that show Champlain’s history.

“Hopefully, the weather will cooperate and a funfilled day will be enjoyed by all those who attend the many events scheduled,” said Mayor Gregory Martin. “It will be good to see the village downtown filled with lots of people enjoying the day.”

Trustee Amy Gehrig said the village is still looking for those inter ested in helping out at the event, with serving ice cr eam and dir ecting traffic, among the jobs to be done.

“We’ll need about 20 to 25 volunteers,” said Gehrig.

Those interested in volunteering may contact the village of fice at 298-4152. For more information on the children’s fun r un an d 5K, contact Connor McFetridge at 298-5548.

Champlain V illage Fest will be held in conjunction with townwide garage sales and an open house for Champlain Telephone Company.

(Editor’s Note: Mor e information on the open house may be found on page 12.)

CHAMPLAIN — The Champlain village board of trustees is investigating the safety of an unoccupied building on Churc h Street.

The boar d unanimously approved a r esolution Monday night to hire an engineer to perform a visual survey of a twostory building located at 93 Church St., which has been in deteriorating condition for some time, said village code enforcement officer Michael Tetreault Jr. “It’s been an issue since this spring,” said Tetreault. “Apparently, during the winter , some of the side of the building, some of the brick is falling apart.

There’s a bow in the building.

It’s a structural issue.”

By Jeremiah S. Papineau

The b uilding i s o wned b y a man named Jason O’Connell, said Tetreault, who lives in Ontario, Canada. Tetreault said he has sent two letters t o O ’Connell r egarding the matter , but has yet to hear from O’Connell.

“He was sent a letter firstclass mail with no r esponse.

Then, he was sent a certified letter which we know was received,” said T etreault, noti ng certified mail must be signed for by the recipient.

The issue is a serious one, said Mayor Gr egory Martin, who noted he’s seen first-hand structural deterioration that could pose a serious danger to those on neighboring pr operties or walking by the building.

“I took a walk ar ound it and there’s a lot of bricks that ar e falling off and roof tiles coming off,” said Martin, who added the village has r eceived com-

The village will now proceed with hiring an engineer to assess the building, the cost of which w ill b e p aid f or b y t he village but will be levied onto

If the village’s engineer finds the structure unsafe, O’Connell will have the opportunity to fix the building or tear it down. If

Farmers markets a worthwhile stop

I

f you know the person who produced your food on a first-name basis, you’re living the dream.

It’s National Farmers Market Week (Aug. 7-13), a time when the USDA secretary and the Farmers Market Coalition tout the political, economic and social benefits of farmers markets in the U.S. Let them say their piece; we’d rather just eat — maybe a little wood-fired bread from Wadhams smeared with goat’s milk cheese from Au Sable Forks, all washed down with a fruit wine made in Mooers.

From Warrensburg to Wilmington and Plattsburgh to Port Henry, we’re blessed with a variety of local food producers in the Adirondack region, much of it made in the Champlain Valley to the east and the St. Lawrence Valley in the northwest.

For many, a visit to the local farmers market is treated as a quick, weekly chore. In places where the myriad of 10by-10 tents are set up in fields and parking lots and along riverbanks, there’s usually a beehive of activity — locals and visitors looking for good deals, good eats and good company.

But in places like Saranac Lake, where the farmers market is located in the heart of the village at Riverside Park, the traveling band of agrarian gypsies becomes the center of the community activity for five hours every Saturday.

Spend the day, and you’ll see what we mean.

Two weeks ago, we did just that, and we were amazed at what we saw. It was Can-Am Rugby weekend. The village was packed with tourists, cars whizzing by the park on River Street. In the bubble of the farmers market, the traffic was a stone’s throw away, but there was no noise.

With the tents set up in an oval — the band shell at one end and a pair of towering white pine trees at the other — a picnic table in the center, surrounded by

green grass, was the center of town.

Heck, at the time, it was the center of the universe.

As vendors finished setting up, they were the first to make their rounds and buy some fresh produce, cheese and baked goods for breakfast. Then, over the next five hours, it seemed as though most of the community showed up.

A woman sitting in the band shell played folk and blues tunes, laying the perfect soundtrack for a day at the market.

Locals came by for a croissant and a conversation. The newspaper publisher stopped for fresh vegetables while taking her puppy for a walk. A mortgage broker ran across the grass after buying a dozen eggs. Teenagers cradled bunches of flowers in their arms. Artists, musicians, retirees, state workers, not-forprofit employees, small business owners, people from all walks of life were there, as were tourists, seasonal residents and boaters docking at Lake Flower behind the tents.

This was a snapshot of the community at its finest. Flowers, cheese, produce and baked goods seemed to sell the best.

We guarantee this: The farmers market will make you smile. Grab a fresh sunflower. Eat a cheese and apple danish.

Stick a moose-shaped maple sugar lollipop in your mouth. Stop by a market in your community this week, and you’ll see what we mean.

Introduce yourself, find out where the food comes from, and make some new friends.

New campaign kicking butts New York State Tobacco Control Program has launched a new campaign to educate New Yorkers about the benefits of tobacco-free outdoor recreational areas.

The campaign raises awareness of the environmental impact of tobacco litter, dangers of secondhand smoke and influence on children when tobacco use is not restricted.

Billboards with "Keep Butts Away From Where We Play" can be seen throughout the tri-county area this summer.

Tobacco litter is poisonous to childr en and wildlife. Discarded cigar ette butts ar e the most common form of litter .

Helping Elmore SPCA The Elmore SPCA, which serves all of Clinton County , is in need your immediate assistance. Pr esently, the shelter is filled to overflowing with over 65 cats and kittens. These homeless animals ar e just the tip of the cat population explosion. Daily, people call the shelter frantic about what to do after discovering abandoned and homeless kittens along with mother cats barely out of kitten hood themselves. The animal rescues throughout the North Country ar e bursting at the seams with unspayed or unneutered cats and a steady

stream of kittens…the terrible consequences of irr esponsible cat ownership. Litters of kittens have been born this spring, and continue to be born.

Unfortunately, many are destined to have a short life full of sickness, malnutrition and even starvation without intervention. As a shelter we have taken in many mor e cats and kittens this year then normally due to flooding, hoar ding, abandonment, and surr enders. The cat/kitten overpopulation issue is not only a tragedy in Clinton County but is repeated in every part of the nation annually.

The costs of spaying, neutering, vaccines, medications, and veterinary care have severely impacted our financial resources. We are asking you for donations of any amount. We are also in dire need of canned cat food and dry kitten food to feed the shelter ’s kittens and cats. Please help us so we can help them.

Monetary contributions may be made dire ctly through our website www.elmorespca.org and by mail to Elmor e SPCA, PO Box 686, Peru, NY 12972. The Post Off ice requires the use of the PO Box for all SPCA corr espondence. Donations of canned food and dry kitten food may be dr opped off at the shelter located at 510 Arthur Road. If pickup is needed please call 534-3484. We thank you in advance for any assistance.

If you are looking for a sweet cat or kitten please visit the Elmore SPCA. If you can foster kittens or a cat or two please call Kc at 643-2451. That would do much to alleviate the crowded conditions at the shelter and get our cats and kittens into caring homes.

The Board of Directors and staff are very grateful for the continued gener osity of individuals, businesses, civic groups, churches, and school organizations. It is your financial support that allows the SPCAto provide shelter and sustenance to homeless, abandoned, and abused animals until they are adopted into loving, lifetime homes.

Insects are an important to your gardens Ways to burn unwanted fat

W

hen most people think of insects, bad ones come to mind. Fortunately, the vast majority of insects in the world ar e not pests and because every pest has a pr edator, many insects are beneficial.

Beneficial insects are insects that help your grow healthy plants. The most commonly thought of beneficial are the pollinators such as honey bees. But, there is a group of insects that either eat or parasitize unwanted gar den pests. Knowing how to attract those beneficial insects to the garden is important.

The first step in attracting beneficial insects to the garden is to stop using pesticides. These chemicals do not dif ferentiate between the good and the bad bugs. Be patient. If your peppers have aphids, give the ladybugs time to find the smor gasbord, eat, mate, lay eggs, and let the ladybug larvae continue to pick the plants clean.

Planting an insectary in or near the gar den will help attract the beneficial bugs to the neighborh ood.

An insectary is a gar den plot or section of the plot dedicated just for the insects. The gar den can be a landscape bed right near the gard en, or several small plantings interspersed among your curr ent flowers or veggies.

Flowers such as fennel, yarrow, and dill, and com-

posite flowers, such as daisies, cosmos, and zinnias, ar e two important flower shapes that attract insects who, in the adult phase, feed on nectar and pollen but whose larvae ar e voracious pr edators and parasites. Some of these insects include hoover flies, lacewings, and parasitic wasps.

Low cover is important for gr ound beetles that feed at night on slugs, cutworms, and r oot maggots. This cover can be low-gr owing herbs, mulch, flat stones, or boar ds. Taller plants ar e important for predators such as stink bugs and praying mantids. Many times these large, pr edatory insects hide so well in the tall plants, that we don't even notice they are there!

Like all living things, beneficial insects need water. This need can be met by simply placing a waterfilled saucer with some rocks in and around it in the garden. Most of these insects have wings and will move out of the garden if water is not available.

With some time and an understanding, even the most bug-squeamish gardeners can come to appreciate the importance of beneficial insects and biodiversity within the garden!

Zumbathon, 5k event to raise money for ‘Swim for Hospice’ Alzheimer’s Disease Assistance Center, taking registrants awareness of life-threatening disease for Aug. 27 event

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — TheAlzheimer ’s Disease Assistance Center hosts its “Walk to Remember” each year , r emembering those lost to and suff ering from Alzheimer ’s disease. And, this year, two events ar e kicking of f the event.

The Senior Citizens Council of Clinton County Senior Center , 5139 N. Catherine St., will be the site of the first upcoming event — a Zumbathon hosted by instr uctor Ashley Cousens this S aturday, Aug. 1 3, f rom 1 2 t o 2 p.m.

Cousens, who routinely hosts Zumba events for local charities, said she’s looking forwar d to this Satur day’s Zumbathon, given the cause.

“My gr eat-grandmother, who I knew fairly well, had Alzheimer ’s,” said Cousens. “That’s why I agreed to do a Zumbathon for the Alzheimer ’s Disease Assistance Center . Because I knew what it was like to see someone go through it.”

The pr oceeds fr om the Zumbathon — which will cost $10 to r egister for — will benefit the center financially .

However, the event is something Cousens said will benefit those wanting to keep their minds in shape as much as their bodies, all at the same time.

“The neat connection between all of this is how Zumba helps you keep your brain active, remembering all the steps. It’s just one way we can help keep our memory going and help ward off Alzheimer ’s,” said Cousens.

The second event to benefit the Alzheimer ’s Disease Assistance Center is “Run to Remember,” a 5k fun ru n and walk in memory of the late Doug Hoffman of Mooers Forks. That event will be held Satur day, Aug. 20, at the Wellness Center at P ARC, 295 New

Debbie Frederick holds a phot o of her father, the late Doug Hoffman of M ooers Forks, who passed away in August 2009 following complications from Alzheimer’s disease. A 5k fun run and walk will be held in Hoffman's memory Saturday, Aug. 20, at the Wellness Center at PARC in Plattsburgh. The 5k is one of two events kicking off this year’s Alzheimer’s Walk in Plattsburgh, to be held for Sunday, Sept. 25, at the Plattsburgh State Fieldhouse.

The swim — which will be held in memory of longtime Camp Dudley director Willie Schmidt — will also mark High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Car e’s 25th anniversary . The event raises vital funds to help support end-of-life car e throughout High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Car e’s 4,600square-mile service ar ea that includes all of W arren County and Essex County — including the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain — as well as portions of Franklin, Hamilton and St. Lawrence counties.

Social Security office will have shorter hours starting Aug. 15 PLATTSBURGH — The Social Security Administration office — located at 14 Durkee St., Suite 230 — will haveeduced r public hours effective Monday, Aug. 15, due to Congressional budget cuts.

The office will be open Monday thr ough Friday, 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., a reduction of 30 minutes each weekday.

While agency employees will continue to work their regular hours, this shorter public window will allow them to complete face-to-face service with the visiting public without incurring the cost of overtime. Congress provided Social Security with nearly $1 billion less than Pr esident Barack Obama requested for the budget this fiscal year, which, according to a SSA pr ess r elease, makes it “impossible for the agency to provide the amount of overtime needed to handle service to the public as we have in the past.”

Most Social Security services do not re quire a visit to an office, including those wishing to apply for benefits, sign up for direct deposit, replace a Medicare card, obtain a proof of income letter or inform the off ice of a change of address or telephone number . Those r equests may be done on-line at www.socialsecurity.gov or by calling 1-800-772-1213. Those who are deaf or hard of hearing may call TTY 1-800-325-0778.

Diabetes management discussion Aug. 18 PLATTSBURGH — Dr. Silvio Inzucchi, a nationally-r ecognized leader in diabetes management, will pr esent “Medicines for Diabetes: An Update For Patients,” 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 18, at the West Side Ballroom, 253 New York Road.

The session is free and open to the public.

For more information or to reserve a seat, call 562-7320.

Guest Viewpoint

A new economic vision for the Adirondacks: One park, one agency

I

n designing the Regional Economic Development Councils (REDCs) around the state, Gov. Andrew Cuomo did what all other governors before him had done. He split the Adirondack Park into several pieces, connecting each of those pieces to a city and re gion outside of the park’s borders. This is disheartening. The Adirondack Park is a distinct r egion with unique economic needs and opportunities.

The Adirondack Park has no cities. It has little in common with Plattsbur gh and W atertown (North Country REDC), Utica (Mohawk Valley REDC) or the Albany/Saratoga region (Capital REDC). Strategies that make sense in a city don’t usually translate well in our rural and remote communities.

That is why theAdirondack Council — the park’s lar gest envir onmental or ganization — co-founded the Common Gr ound Alliance. It is also why the Council collaborated with the Adirondack Community Housing Trust and partially funded the third volume of an outstanding local communityplanning effort known as Hamlets III, Planning for Smart Growth & Expansion of Hamlets in the Adirondack Park. We are also asking for the state to cre ate a dedicated fund to assist local economic development planning efforts in Adirondack towns.

We also supported the Empire State Development Corporation (ESDC) plan to seek a single U.S. Census Bur eau r egion for the

More about the North Country Regional Economic Development Council Your editorial regarding the North Country Regional Economic Development Council was on the mark in terms of noting the need for a distinct conversation r egarding the unique economic needs within the Adirondack Park. However, it was premature in that it came ahead of the full story.

The North Country Chamber has been joined with other economic interests in the region in highlighting the findings of the Adirondack Park Regional Assessment and stressing the fact that past state economic development strategies such as Empir e Zones have lar gely been unhelpful in the Adirondacks as they have tended to str ess such things as manufacturing and larger job counts. We have continuously advocated for the development of a strategy tailor ed to the Adirondack Park, citing a sense of ur gency given some of the troubling findings of APRAP in terms of community and economic sustainability in many Adirondack areas.

The Governor's r egion-by-region appr oach finally pr ovides an opportunity to addre ss the different challenges and opportunities in all ar eas of the North Country , including the Adirondacks, and he is to be applauded for this sea change in how the state will determine and support economic development.

And while the council covers the broader North Country region for many practical reasons, the first Regional Council meeting on August 5th included two things of relevance to this topic: First, it was explicitly noted that the North Country actually consists of four sub-regions, the Adirondack Park being one. And the final plan must take note of the assets and opportunities in all four areas, seeing that all are included and then knitted together in a comprehensive strategy.

Secondly, a specific Adirondack Park sub-group is being created and will be headed by Bill Farber , Chair of the Hamilton County Boar d of Supervisors and a r ecognized leader in advocating for Adirondack inter ests. It is hoped that this gr oup will become a cr oss-regional gr oup, something specifically encouraged in the Governor's plans, bringing in voices from those portions of the park which are in the Capital and Mohawk V alley regions. This actually creates an opportunity for Adirondack needs and issues to be heard not only thr ough one r egional council but thr ee, which could prove advantageous.

And we see this Adirondack Park sub-group carrying on as a working group well beyond the initial cre ation of a first set of plans later this year, and becoming an on-going vehicle for strategic conversations, recommendations and advocacy.

The council's working gr oups and other ef forts will be quickly unfolding in the coming weeks, with an extr emely challenging timetable that requires full completion of a fiveyear strategy by November that can then be competitive with the submissions from the nine other regions. And there will be a number of opportunities announced for input, including an envisioned for um in the central Adirondacks among other sessions and other means for active exchange.

Onward and upward!

Mayor’s Cup celebrates another success

At the FYE signing, it is not that unusual to have to purchase an item to get a signatur e; it's pr etty standar d. This was a FYE corporate decision, since the event was held at FYE, and I found FYE to be the utmost professionals at this event, doing what the store wanted them to do. It is a business, so I do thank FYE and their great staff there.

Mr. Foley was mor e than nice to all his fans, taking time to sign a lot mor e than one item that was pr esented to him — chatting, taking pictur es. So, yes, ther e was a little wait for the next person to see him.

There was an 8 x 10 photo provided, not a cheap piece of paper as was represented in this other jeer,(clearly hearsay).

Mr. Foley was to be ther e for only two hours but stayed longer to make sur e everyone was taken car e of, then pr oceeded to take pictur es with the staf f at FYE. Sur e, we did not raise a lot of money; we work very closely with the team we chose to work with, they ar e a class act of women and we thank them (The Angels),but after the decision to have a purchase done at the door, we were only trying to do what we could with what was pr esented to us. W e r espect FYE and their business decision. Once again, this was their stor e.

We go by the r ules — tons of security was in place for the event.

We thank Champlain Centre and Russ and Dana for their great team work. Not any pr oblems at all, considering you pay $325 for Yankee tickets, just to have the players totally ignore your children. You paid for a DVD and for $10, a lifetime memory of meeting Mr. Foley and having your picture with him.

We work very har d to bring these entertainers to your town, and the bigger events brings business into your town.

To be jeer ed liked this I thought was unfair when it was clearly a hearsay situation. W e thank Denton Publications for giving us a chance to r e-speakout on this. Mick Foley's show at Therapy in downtown Plattsbur gh was a gr eat show, and we thank Therapy for being one of the gr eatest places I've been and seen in Plattsburgh. Check them out.

In closing, once again, we thank the fans — without you there is no show! So, show your support to all events that head your way!

The Adirondack Park Agency is the only state agency whose sole focus is on the park.

Yet the agencies that were supposed to be integrated into theAPA’s work — DEC, the Department of State and Empire State Development Corporation — don’t do the same. Each should have a full time effort focused on the Adirondack Park, perhaps in the same office complex as the Park Agency. They alr eady occupy seats as agency designees to theAPA. Isn’t it time to consider a one-stop-shop approach to achieve a mor e cost-effective and efficient delivery of state goods and services?

In fact, it makes sense to consider combining the work of all four into a singleAdirondack Park Administration. Because the park is lar ger than most New England states, it should have branch of fices spr ead ar ound the park. This would curb the need for residents to travel long distances to attend public meetings, apply for permits or seek assistance with community-development grants and business loans.

The Park Agency/Administration would finally be able to serve the unique economic needs of the Adirondack Park communities.

It would support sustainable, compatible economic development while protecting water quality, wildlife and the park’s wild character.

Mayor ’s Cup 2011 can easily be compared to the shifting winds of sailing.

Nine months of planning, all things on pace, then came the unprecedented flooding of Lake Champlain that sent the entire region, including our festival, adrift.

After many weeks of wear and tear on the soul of our community, it was more important than ever to find a reason to say, “Goodbye, flood waters ... Hello, summer!”

Call it good timing or good luck, with Mayor ’s Cup weekend came drier weather , and, like colorful spinnakers, brighter spirits and a reason to celebrate.

We would like to express our gratitude to the hard-working members of the Mayor ’s Cup Or ganizing Committee, City of Plattsburgh employees, community volunteers, Sunrise Rotary, Center for the Arts and SUNY Alumni Association.

You helped bring the people of New York, Vermont and Quebec together for a four -day waterfr ont celebration of music, fir eworks, sailing, boat parade, barbecue, biking, kayaking, basketball, cir cus, arts, kids activities, and so much more.

Many people may not be aware that the Mayor’s Cup Festival is funded through the financial support of local and er gional businesses. A special thanks to all of our sponsors and supporters for helping to make Mayor ’s Cup 201 1 a huge success, despite the excess water.

Finally, congratulations to Matt Spiegel, our 201 1 Spirit Award r ecipient; the cr ew of Soundwave for winning the coveted Mayor ’s Cup; and the cr ew of Liverpool Jar ge for winning the Rotary Cup; and thanks to all boaters and cre w for their loyal participation in our regatta and boat parade.

The town has recently given us permission to update the Chazy Recreational Park Playground. However, it is up to the community to raise all the necessary funds for the playground. A daunting task, but it is a challenge we are all up for.

Please support this upgrading effort by donating an item from your business to help us raise the necessary funds for a new playground.

Let’s turn our outdated Recr eational Park into a joyful place for our childr en to play again. I thank you for your support in these efforts.

If you’d like to help, call 324-0563.

A bear named sunscreen W

hen I was a kid — way befor e the World Wrestling Foundation, E .T. o r e ven S tar Wars — the Satur day evening entertainment wasn’t a night out at the movies, it was watching black bears gor ge themselves on table scraps at the Newcomb dump.

Back before it became politically incorr ect to heave your bags of trash into the big crater in the earth, dumps in locales like Newcomb, Long Lake and Tupper Lake wer e legendary for nightly visits fr om br uins who became supersized on discarded leftovers.

We’d kick back in ratty lawn chairs and watch them for hours as house flies buzzed ar ound their tiny clamshell ears. We’d give them names like Bone Crusher, Pizza Face and Budweiser.

Oh how we’d chuckle.

Locals would r ecognize them year after year and would speak about them over morning coffee.

They’d say things like, “Pizza Face looks like he’s a muffin over 600 pounds this year.” And, “I nearly smacked Budweiser this morning with my pickup.”

Even more fun was watching the visiting flatlanders who — forgetting the fact that Budweiser, Pizza Face and Bone Crusher were wild creatures capable of swatting them off the planet like a black fly — would attempt to feed them by hand or get close enough to add one to the background of a family portrait.

I once saw a guy nearly lose his hand in an attempt to feed a marshmallow to one absolutely humongous bear as his thr ee young childr en looked on in horr or. Of course, we later named the bear Marshmallow.

Oh, those were the days.

Today, th ings ar e dif ferent. Dump s ar e now transfer stations (just exactly wher e do they transfer all that great bear food to anyway?) and

bears have been for ced to fall back on their natural instincts for food.

Of course, being the opportunists they are, bears will most likely always step on the toes of humans now and again.

Such was the case last weekend when my kids, Harrison and Malena, discover ed that a bear had climbed into the family car while it sat in the driveway of their Schr oon Lake home.

The only r eal casualty was a tube of sunscreen and container of baby wipes the bear took a hankering to — but I’ll let my kids tell you the full story. Their version is attached to this column.

Great job on the story , by the way, guys. I think we should call the bear “sunscr een.” (I can picture them giggling on the couch at that one.)

Senior wildlife biologist Ed Reed said the number of nuisance bear complaints in DEC Re gion 5 has been very low this year, at just 20.

Most have been r eports of raided garbage cans and bird feeders.

“Normally we have more like 150 complaints by now,” Reed said.

Reed attributes the low number of complaints to above average natural food sources for bears, like berries, apples, black cherries, acorns and beechnuts.

Bear complaints normally rise during years when food sour ces like these ar e scar ce, often during very dry spells.

That was not a pr oblem this spring, and the natural food offerings have bears fat and happy and out of the back yards of most of us.

Unfortunately for hunters, seasons of above average sources of food usually mean below average bear harvests during the early and er gular season, as the bruins become hard to locate and pattern.

We shall see if that trend holds true when the

My son, Harrison, inspec ts a black bear I t ook in 2003, not far fr om the site of a r ecent encounter my kids had with another bear, which they wrote about below.

Editor’s Note: The following is a firsthand account written by my son Harrison, age 10, with help from my daughter Malena, age 8, about an encounter they had with a wild bear at their home in Schr oon Lake. They titled the piece, “The Sunday Bear.”

By Harrison and Malena Gereau

O

n Sunday morning, me, my mom and my sister wer e walking to the car to go to church. Mom stopped us as we approached the car and low and behold a bear had gotten into our car . It looked as if the bear climbed into the car thr ough the window. There were paw prints all over the car door. My sister said that she thought the bear had a cub, because there were small and big paw prints.

Last week, we lost our cat named Bitty Boo. W e think the bear had something to do with that. She just wandered into the woods and has not come back yet.

That same morning after the bear got into the car, we figured out that he or she had bit into the new can of sunscreen and it squirted all over the inside and outside of the car. He or she also bit into the tip of our mother’s car seat. One other thing that the bear almost demolished was a whole container of baby wipes! Those things were all that were inside the car that night.

It was very fun to tell friends about the creature, but we sure hope he’s gone away. early bear season in these parts opens Sept. 17.

Roy wins second straight, gains Airborne Speedway’s point lead SOUTH PLATTSBURGH — Martin Roy swooped ar ound leaders Gr eg Atkins and Leon Gonyo with nine laps to go and went on to his second straight DIRTcar Modified win on Della Auto Gr oup Night at Airborne Speedway Aug. 6.

The 30-lap main event was a bruiser that took nine cautions to complete.

Clean restarts were the issue. The race was red-flagged after three laps when Matt Woodruff got up on the wheel of Cam Grady’s machine and slammed into the turn four wall. Woodruff was not seriously injured.

Roy started 15th in a 28-car field, gained some spots early by attrition, and then passed a trio of cars on the backstretch as they were navigating a

back marker to move into eighth on Lap 10. At that point, the top-5 r unning order was Atkins, Gonyo, Jimmy Ryan, Mike Reyell and Craig Reyell.

George Foley got up to second with a late charge in the outside lane. A final caution on Lap 26 gave him a shot at the win, but Roy pulled away at the drop of the gr een and won by thr ee car-lengths. Atkins held off a late charge fr om V ince Quenneville to claim fourth. Positions 6-10 went to Mike Phinney, Andy Heywood, Jimmy Ryan, Pierre Berthiaume and Chris Cayea.

On Lap 21, Gonyo was si zing up Atkins for a possible pass for the lead, when Roy moved farther outside to pass them both. “It was a crazy race,”

he said. “I tried to wait for a while for the trouble to stop. ” The former track champion had spent the afternoon qualifying for a NASCAR Canadian Tire event at Trois Rivieres. “It was important for me to get back toAirborne tonight and try to keep racing for the championship.

Thanks to all the fans who come out and support the track. ” Defending Ernie's Discount T ools Modified champion Patrick Dupr ee began the night as the point leader , but he suffered electrical problems in his heat race and started at the rear of the field in a back-up car that was soon sidelined with a broken panhard bar.

Roy now leads Dupree 460-448 with

three point races r emaining. Foley is in third place another 14 points back.

Robin Wood, Jamy Begor and Bucko Branham finished nose to tail in the J&S Steel Sportsman featur e. Wood took the lead on a Lap-10 r estart and drove to his sixth win. Nick Heywood and Dave Rabtoy finished 4-5. Earlier, Begor won the six-lap $250-to-win Sportsman “Dash for Cash.”

Point leader Kevin Boutin of Fairfax, VT held off Robbie Favreau to win the Renegade feature. The pair traded the lead several times while r unning door to door - Boutin inside, Favr eau outside. Lance Rabtoy was a close third. Josh Allen and Robert Gor don were next in line. The Renegade “Dash for Cash” was won by Josh T erry of

Morrisonville.

Erick Sayles of Lake Placid took the Mini Modified checkers with Kris Clark of Keeseville a car-length away.

Josh LaPorte finished third after swapping the position thr ee times with point leader Speedy Br esette, who placed fourth. CJ LaV air was fifth. The win was Sayles’ fourth of the season.

Curtis Lagrave Jr . of Plattsbur gh won the Busch Bomber feature.

This Satur day, Aug. 13, the J&S Steel Sportsman take the spotlight for the 2nd annual “4-20’s” event. Each 20-lap s print p ays $ 500-to-win. T he overall winner – lowest combined finishes total – will earn an additional $500.

“It’s my understanding Judge Rogers appointed Bill Meconi as assign ed counsel,” said W ylie in an interview Monday afternoon. “[Hill] was remanded to jail without bail.”

Wylie said an autopsy of Larabie was performed by Dr .

Michael Sikirica, a chief medical examiner fr om Rensselaer County. The pr eliminary r esults showed Larabie’s death was caused by asphyxiation due to strangulation.

Hill allegedly stole money from Larabie’s wallet and then threw the wallet and its contents into the Saranac River before he fled on foot.

On Monday afternoon, Racicot said other details of the incident are not being released as the investigation is ongoing.

Letourneau said the boar d should explore the idea of privatizing the school bus service, an option the body has investigated in the past.

“Instead of the school paying all this, have a private company come in and run the buses,” Letourneau said. “They take care o f t heir o wn e mployees. Th ey t ake care of everything else.”

District Superintendent Peter J. Turner said he didn’t want the searc h for savings to descend to finger -pointing among school employees.

“One thing I think is important, when you go to those diff erent sub-groups, is to ask them for cost-saving ideas within their own bar gaining unit,” Turner said.

“Because what you r eally don’t want to have is one bargaining unit attacking another.”

Letourneau said he wanted to know whether ther e would be a r eduction in employees or gas expense by putting high school and elementary childr en on the same school bus, as it has been on the past.

Also, Letourneau sa id he wanted the board to consider r eturning to a centralized bus pick-up on each block. Buses currently pick up students at their individual homes.

Additionally, Letourneau said he wanted to know whether the district might be able to, with the children’s safety taken into account, transport fewer students in accor dance with a state education busing law.

The district doesn’t have to bus anyone in grades K-5 who lives under two miles away, Letourneau said. Similarly, the district doesn’t have to bus anyone in grades 6-12 who lives less than three miles away.

tourneau said. “I don’t think anyone’s comfortable with having somebody walking on r oads leading to the [Champlain] school.”

In contrast, in Rouses Points and Mooers, which are home to district elementary schools, there are sidewalks and crossing guards which make for a safer walking route, Letourneau said.

Board member Tammy Gonyo said the district doing mor e of its work digitally would save money.

Board member L ynn Gr ovine said the district might consider sharing services, such as busing, with other districts.

“Down the r oad that’s another option that we could possibly look into,” Grovine said. “I think that’s going to be the trend.”

Letourneau said he thought many would misunderstand sharing services to mean consolidation.

“It’s not,” Letourneau said. “It’s mutually beneficial.”
