Benefit to be held for woman with ALL

CHAMPLAIN — In less than an hour, Laura Perras’ life changed forever.

Last month the 23-year-old visited her doctor when she wasn’t feeling well and ended up being treated for a sinus/middle ear infection.

Within a week, she noticed a growing lump under her arm, which her doctor took to be an infected hair follicle.

On July 7, Laura’s mother Wanda Perras noticed her daughter’s coloring was getting worse and she seemed to have no energy. So she had her go back to the doctor.

“We’ve got such a demand and our supplies are so small,” Buskey said. “It’s just that one week you stock up your food and two weeks later, it’s gone way down again.

We just can’t keep up with it.”

Buskey believes the current economy is to blame for the increasing number of people at the food pantry.

“The demand is so high this year,” she said. “Every two weeks we’ll get two or three new people. It’s hard.”

However, now is the time the community can really help out.

“In the summertime we like to get the garden products,” Buskey explained. “People always have a lot of summer squash or something that they don’t know what to do with.”

The Mooers Food Pantry, which is housed at the Mooers Wesleyan Church on Maple Street, helps people from throughout northern Clinton County, including Altona, Mooers, Mooers Forks, West Chazy, Sciota, Chazy, Champlain, Rouses Point and Ellenburg.

Buskey said pantry volunteers haven’t yet had to turn people away; however they have had to get “skimpy” with how much they

give.

“They don’t get as much as we’d like to give them,” she said, adding the garden produce can help.

“It would be a great fill in if we could get this produce during the summer months,” Buskey explained. “To help fill in for the rest of the food. And it always goes. It never spoils.”

She added many people are happy when they see they have received fresh produce in their boxes.

“They’re very, very happy,” said Buskey.

“They’re very grateful for it.”

If interested in making a donation of food or money to the Mooers Food Pantry, contact Buskey at 236-9228 to make arrangements, or stop by the food pantry Tuesday, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Mooers Wesleyan Church, 149 Maple St. If interested in receiving assistance from the pantry, bring proof of residency during the pantry hours.

“We’re always glad we can help them,” said Buskey. “I always make sure to tell them not to feel bad about coming and be sure to come back if they need the help. I’m more than happy to see their faces.”

Every dog gets its day

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com EAST MORRISONVILLE — The Town of Plattsburgh Recreation Department recognizes many people consider their dogs more than a pet, but one of their children. Therefore they have organized a day all about pampering pups.

Doggie Paddle Day is a day in which people can bring their dogs to the East Morrisonville Park on Bullis Road to go swimming in the pond.

During the summer dogs are not allowed to go swimming at the beach because the department worries issues may arise with bacteria in the water.

“We have to pass bacterial level checks by the health department,” explained recreation department director Melanie Defayette.

“We’re afraid with dogs, if you let one in, you’ll have a hundred in there every day. That certainly wouldn’t do well with our test.”

However, on Sunday, Aug. 22, the day following the official closing of the beach, dogs will be allowed in the water.

Four years ago, the staff at the recreation department was having a brainstorming session about different activities they could start doing.

“Of course the staff that we talked with all have dogs,” said Defayette. “And they were like, ‘We would really like to be in the water with our dogs.’”

“The pond is perfect. Just perfect,” she added. “Because it’s only about 4 and a half feet deep in the middle. It’s contained. It’s not like you’re bringing them out into the river. It’s like a big pool for them. They have a ball.”

Doggie Paddle Day will have more than just swimming however.

The event will bring in various vendors including Canine Adventure, Tails of the Adirondack, PetSmart, and Barking Bubbles.

“This is all about the dogs,” Defayette said.

“They’re our kids too.”

When the department first had Doggie Paddle Day, Defayette admits she was a little nervous the dogs would be running all around the park.

“But you know, they all stayed together and they just played in the water and they’d jump out of the pool and then play with each other then run back into the water,” she said. “It ends up being an organized chaos. It’s a lot of fun.”

Defayette also sees it as a positive environment for the dogs.

“It’s a great opportunity to socialize the dog,” she said. “They can play with other dogs.

And get a chance to try swimming. If they’ve never been in the water before, it’s a great spot to try the water.”

The event will be held from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

Dog owners are required to bring proof of rabies vaccinations.

New system in place at CCC

F

or the better part of the last decade, Clinton Community College has delayed upgrading to a computer-based enterprise resource planning tool.

The delay was caused by the cost of such a system being completely out of our reach.

That’s history now as we begin the upcoming school year with a new system in place called CAMS (Comprehensive Academic Management System).

The new system is totally Web-based, which is quite important for students, faculty and administrators who need instant access to school and course information anytime, anywhere. It also is highly customizable and uses standardized Microsoft technologies, a feature sure to please the IT department.

CAMS is produced by Three Rivers Systems and is currently in its third version called CAMS Enterprise. Prior to this coming school year, we had to maintain a number of separate systems that each handled a different chore. For example the old mainframe computer handled student recordkeeping, the faculty Web server controlled Web accessibility, and the Outlook portion of Microsoft Office conducted e-mail communication. CAMS will replace or integrate many of those functions making life easier

for students, faculty and staff. For instance, in the past I had to manually create email distribution lists for each class. With CAMS, I click one link to every student in one course or another link to contact every student in all of my courses.

Systems like CAMS are used by many educational institutions worldwide.

Now, when students complete study at the college

By Ron Poland and move on to another institution, they will carry the experience of automated, portal-based academic/degree management with them. Previously, they went to new institutions blindly and had to learn everything about the new institution while also learning to use a system like CAMS. For more information about CAMS, visit them on the Web at www.threeriverscams.com.

Reducing seniors’ isolation

O

ne of the biggest risks for aging folks is to become isolated from neighbors.

Feeling connected to the community is important for people of any age, but seniors in particular may be adversely affected by isolation.

Many seniors do not have family members living close by, and having good relationships with neighbors can make up for the lack of family closeness. In addition, isolation can contribute to health problems, according to a study conducted at the University of Chicago, by adversely impacting mental health.

Poor mental health, including depression and anxiety, can increase health-risk behaviors, like cigarette smoking and alcohol abuse. Seniors with depression may experience loss of appetite and sleeplessness, and physical ailments may soon follow.

What can caregivers do to help their loved ones become tied in with their neighborhood? First, caregivers can make a point of introducing themselves to the neighbors.

They can also introduce their old folks to their neighbors, if they don’t already know each other. An exchange of phone numbers may also be in order, with the initial understanding the numbers are to be used for emergency situations only. Don’t let the

F

neighbors think you are trying to assign them responsibility for your loved one.

Caregivers can encourage their loved ones to reach out to their neighbors, after introductions have been made. This reaching-out can take many forms, from a simple wave out the window to passing children, to making a simple, favorite dessert. Most families will welcome these friendly, non-intrusive gestures. In addition, having an alert neighbor may make them feel better about going away on vacation, knowing any unusual activities will be noticed. The senior will feel socially-connected as well and may be more inclined to venture into other social activities.

For more information, contact the BHSN Caregiver Resource Center.

This isn’t Garfield’s lasagna

T

his past spring, my husband and I dug a new vegetable garden. The garden is not as large as I would like it to be.

After completing two-thirds of the bed, we stopped. Removing all of that sod was too much work. So, to complete the garden this fall, I am going to create a lasagna garden.

Lasagna gardening is a nodig, no-till gardening method that results in rich, fluffy soil with relatively little work from the gardener. The name lasagna gardening has nothing to do with what you’ll be growing in this garden. It refers to the method of building the garden, which is, essentially, adding layers of organic materials that will compost over time, resulting in rich, fluffy soil that will help your plants thrive.

The first layer of your lasagna garden consists of either cardboard or a few layers of newspaper laid directly on top of the grass in the area you’ve selected for your garden.

Wet this layer down to keep everything in place and start the decomposition process.

The grass under the newspaper will break down fairly quickly as the newspaper and materials quickly smother the grass. The remaining layers will consist of anything you would put in a compost pile such as grass clippings, leaves, fruit and vegetable scraps,

composted manure, and yard scraps.

Just as with an edible lasagna, there is some importance to the methods you use to build your lasagna garden. You’ll want to alternate layers of brown materials such as fall leaves, shredded newspaper, peat, and pine needles with layers of greens materials such as vegetable scraps, garden trimmings, and grass clippings. What you want at the end of your layering process is a two-foot tall layered bed that will shrink in height over the next few weeks.

You can make a lasagna garden at any time of year, but we are entering the optimal time of the year. During the fall, there are large amounts of organic materials you can get for free thanks to fallen leaves and general yard waste from cleaning up the rest of the yard and garden. You can let the lasagna garden sit and break down all winter. By spring, it will be ready to plant in with a minimum of effort.

Inspiring internship

By James A. King Special to Denton Publications

I

nervously walked into the Westelcom building in downtown Plattsburgh not knowing it would one day change my life.

I, James King of Port Henry, was able to work with Denton Publications as an intern through Upward Bound, a college preparation program. Working in the office in Plattsburgh, I worked with senior editor Jeremiah S. Papineau, editor Sarah L. Cronk, and intern Katherine Clark to better my writing skills and broaden my journalism horizon.

During my time with Denton Publications, I learned many new things and improved my journalistic skills. I was exposed to the Associated Press writing style, shown several ways to create a headline, and formulate a catchy lead. These skills have already and will continue to help me as a writer.

Not only was I taught journalism lessons, but life lessons as well.

Gail Herman, an account executive with the company, not only taught me the basics of journalism, but also helped me adjust on the first day.

Because of this, I am more able to socially adjust to new situations. She also helped me clean the office while the editors were in Elizabethtown, teaching me organizational skills I can use in all aspects of life.

Interning at Denton Publications really changed my life. It helped further my passion for writing, even if it can be challenging sometimes.

All four of the people I have worked with over the past five weeks, which spanned from July 6 until Aug. 5, have inspired me to further pursue a career in journalism. I could not thank them enough for the opportunity to further develop my skills as a journalist and more importantly a writer.

Moonlight Movie enters third year with ‘Up’

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Families will gather Saturday, Aug. 21, at the Macdonough Monument to watch a movie under the stars.

Moonlight Movie, an event which began three years ago, is an idea the Town of Plattsburgh Recreation Department director Melanie Defayette said she got at a conference for New York State Recreation and Parks.

“Other towns were doing it. I kind of researched it … and said ‘what a neat idea,’” recalled Defayette.

The first year the movie was held at the Clinton County Fairgrounds, bringing in nearly 50 people. The following year it was moved to the monument, with an even bigger turnout.

The change in location was the decision of the co-sponsors, Reality Check, a statewide program which educates people about the marketing practices of the tobacco industry.

“They decided in their second year that they really wanted to try to move it into the city,” Defayette explained of Reality Check.

Concert this Sunday PERU — The Town of Peru Summer Concert Series continues this Sunday, Aug. 15, with a performance from the traditional Irish Celtic music group Inisheer.

The performance will be held from 6-8 p.m. in the Little Ausable River Gazebo at the corner of Elm and Main streets.

The town’s concert series will end Sunday, Aug. 22, with a performance by country and classic rock band The Castaways. That outdoor show will also be from 6-8 p.m.

For more information, call 643-2475.

Youth Bureau seeking soccer referees The Clinton County Youth Bureau soccer program is in need of referees for its upcoming season which runs from Saturday, Sept.

4, through Saturday, Oct. 16.

General knowledge of the rules, playing experience, and experience working with children is desired. The pay is $18 to $25 per game. Referees will be hired to officiate games at the Mites, Pee Wee, and Bantam levels. Applicants must be 14 years of age or older and must attend one clinic.

Clinics will be held as follows: Tuesday, Aug. 14, from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Mooers Town Hall; Wednesday, Aug. 18, from 1 to 4 p.m. at Keeseville Elementary School cafeteria; Thursday, Aug. 19, from 6 to 9 p.m. at CCYB, second floor; Tuesday, Aug. 24, from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Chazy Town Hall board room; Wednesday, Aug. 25, from 6 to 9 p.m. at CCYB, second floor; and Tuesday, Aug. 31, from 1 to 4 p.m.; at the Town of Plattsburgh Offices.

Applicants must bring all of athe following: working papers (if applicant is 17 years of age or younger); Social Security card or birth certificate; and a picture I.D., driver ’s license or school report card.

All coordinators and youth coaches are encouraged to recruit potential soccer referees to attend and ask questions regarding rules and learn more about officiating soccer. For further information, contact the Youth Bureau at 565-4750.

“So we could try to get people walking and all that.”

“And down at Macdonough, you’ve got the lamp seating, the hillside,” she added. “It’s just an extremely pleasant place to hold it.”

Defayette said Reality Check has been sponsoring movies along with recreation departments across the state.

“Reality Check uses it as an opportunity to spread their good word about smoking in movies,” explained Defayette. “They preview the movie with their own video … about just making people aware of how tobacco companies basically sneak their way into movies.”

This year ’s movie event will feature “Up,” which Defayette said features no tobacco marketing.

According to the movie’s official Web site, this family-friendly movie features Carl Fredicksen, a retired balloon salesman who ties thousands of balloons to his house and sets out for an adventure. It is rated PG. The movie will be held at 7:45 p.m. and people are asked to bring their own blankets or low-rise chairs. It is a tobacco, alcohol and drug free event.

A John Deere dream sarah@denpubs.com CHAZY — Anthony Trombly has been collecting John Deere tractors for the last 22 years. It’s more than a hobby to him, it’s a dream come true.

Along Route 9, many people stop on a daily basis to see the 70 tractors lined up in a field at the farm he owns, called John Deere Hill Farm.

“I’m not trying to impress everybody, or anybody for that matter,” said Trombly. “I put them here because I like seeing them here.”

Trombly said the tractors have been lined up since June, and prior to that they hadn’t been in the field for nearly 20 years.

His collection first began in 1988 when he purchased a John Deere 2cylinder for $300.

“That was a splurge,” Trombly recalled.

Trombly said he took over the family farm at the age of 16, putting every penny he had back into the business that he considered

“financially bankrupt.”

“Nothing like this would have been in the picture,” Trombly explained as he looked down the line of the tractors. “But I turned it around through hard work and management.”

After spending 12 years without making a single purchase for himself, he saw a deal with the $300 tractor and decided to take it.

From there on, Trombly purchased every tractor in the line.

“There was a point in time where the tractors weren’t old enough to be antique, but they were too old to be efficient,” he explained. “So you could buy them cheap.”

“I made the deal. I bought every single one. And every one has a story on how I found it, how we derived at the price and how it got here,” added Trombly. “It’s unbelievable the stories that come with them. It really gave me a life.”

One story includes an eventful trip to a tractor auction in Iowa to purchase a 1935 tractor. After Trombly’s wife, Marsha was looking through a catalogue of tractors

that were going to be auctioned, she noticed something familiar about one of the serial numbers. It in fact was the next consecutive number of a 1935 tractor Trombly already owned.

“They were made one behind the other in the factory,” he explained.

Another tractor in the line up is not a John Deere at all, but an International Farmall tractor.

Trombly purchased the tractor from the son of a man who was long-time friends with Trombly’s

father.

“There was always a rivalry between John Deere and International,” he explained. “He was always strong International and we were always strong John Deere. So I just had to have one of his after he passed away.”

The ages of the tractors in the line range from the 1920s to the 1970s, which Trombly finds is a way to show agricultural history.

“I can see the evolution,” he said. “It’s right here and it’s fascinating. The oldest one is a 1927

Vision problems can affect learning Drinking water safely after a flood

A

ugust is both Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month as well as Children’s Vision and Learning Month. With school just around the corner, it’s time to look into whether your child has vision problems.

Vision problems are more than just a nuisance for children. Impacted vision can have serious effects on a child’s ability to learn in the classroom.

Imagine trying to read a textbook or see the chalkboard with words dancing around or vision doubled. What if the words were blurred or even backward?

These are the problems thousands of students face. Poor grades or an inability to pay attention in class may be incorrectly attributed to other learning or behavioral issues when really they could stem from poor vision.

Most vision screenings at school do not check for tracking, focusing, eye teaming, or perceptual skills. They simply check for visual acuity.

Therefore, students with certain vision impairments may be sent on their way with a 20/20 bill of health. An optometrist or ophthalmologist will be able to diagnose vision problems that are

not apparent in school exams.

Without proper diagnosis, children can experience low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy in school. With repeated admonishments from educators and parents, children may view themselves as “stupid” or unable to learn.

This could impact them throughout their entire lives.

Corrective treatments can improve a child’s ability to see and learn. A study published in the Archives of Ophthalmology indicated test scores of preschool-aged children who had hyperopia and astigmatism were lower than those who did not. Within six weeks of wearing corrective glasses, the children’s test scores improved significantly.

The American Optometric Association recommends comprehensive eye exams each year before a child enters school. Parents can make this a part of annual physical exams when taking kids for yearly wellness visits.

Children are not alone in vision problems.

Adults can also be impacted by any number of vision ailments. Doctors recommend annual eye exams for adults as well. Make it a family affair and schedule appointments on the same day.

A

reas in Ellenburg, Chazy and Altona were impacted by flash flooding Aug. 3. After flooding, private well owners are encouraged by the Clinton County Health Department to take actions to ensure their private well water supply is safe for consumption.

When a water supply well has been affected by flood waters, the water within the well may be contaminated with waterborne pathogens that can cause serious illness in humans and pets. If it is believed well water has been contaminated, discontinue using well water for drinking and cooking purposes, and use only disinfected or bottled water. Contact the Clinton County Health Department for fact sheets and instructions on proper clean-up, disinfection and sampling to make sure your drinking water is safe.

Drinking water wells can also be contaminated by fuel oil or other chemical products released during the flood, such as from home oil tanks or agricultural tanks. If it is believed a well may be contaminated by petroleum or other chemicals, do not use well and immediately contact the health department or the Department of Environmental Conservation Spill Hotline at 1-800-4577362.

A flood will leave warnings signs that a well may be unsafe. The following are some things a well owner can look for. Any of these signs may indicate a well is contaminated. Most private wells have the pump located inside the well casing and submerged, so well owners will probably not be able to inspect the pump. Well owners should contact a qualified professional, registered well driller or pump contractor, to evaluate and service well pumps.

• Is the well located in or near the area that was flooded? If the area was not seen during the flood, debris and mud in the area and water or mud stains on the well can indicate the well was flooded.

• Is the ground surface around the well intact and stable? During flooding, the ground around the well may erode, possibly creating unsafe conditions or a pathway for surface water and contaminants to enter the well.

• Are there any electrical components or wires visible? Visible electrical wires may be dangerous and should be avoided due to electrical shock. If electrical connections or controls located outside the well casing remain submerged, turning on the pump may cause electrical shock or damage to the system. A qualified electrician should be contacted.

• Is any damage to the well casing visible? A bent or cracked well casing may allow surface water, sediment and debris to enter the well and will increase the risk of contamination.

• Is the well cap and seal securely fastened to the well casing? A loose well cap can allow sediment and debris to enter the well and contaminate it.

If it is determined the well has been flooded, do not turn on well pump until the well has been assessed and repaired as needed.

Do not drink or wash with well water until the well has been restored by proper disinfection and flushing.

For more information, contact CCHD at 565-4870 or visit www.clintonhealth.org for well disinfection steps.

Hannah’s Hope Fund in running for $250,000 People’s votes needed by end of month

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com SARANAC — Every day for the past two weeks, Carrie Favaro has turned on her computer, hoping to see yet another person supporting the mission of Hannah’s Hope Fund.

The nonprofit organization — whose mission is to eradicate giant axonal neuropathy (GAN), an inherited neurological disorder — has been in the running since Aug. 1 for a $250,000 grant from the Pepsi Refresh Everything Project.

Hannah’s Hope Fund has special meaning for Favaro, whose niece, Hannah Sames of Rexford, was diagnosed with the condition in 2008 at the age of 3. Favaro and her sister, Lori Sames — Hannah’s mother who is formerly from Plattsburgh — joined other family members in submitting their cause to Pepsi for funding. And, it worked.

“We were up until midnight July 31 to submit it because they only take the first 1,000 ideas in each category every month,” explained Favaro. “We got in and they ap-

Dining &

proved our application.”

Though the road to receive the funding is far from over. The power of the people will decide the fate of the Hannah’s Hope Fund request, which, if awarded, will help with clinical human trials of gene therapy to correct the condition. The Refresh Everything Project opens submitted causes up to the public to vote on which projects they’d like to see funded most.

And, though Hannah’s Hope Fund is competing against 1,231 other submissions in their category, there is a ray of hope, said Favaro.

“Right now, we’re ranked 59th out of all of them,” Favaro said in an interview last week. “Just a few days ago, we were ranked 432nd. That just shows you how quickly it can climb.”

The numbers have even climbed more since then. As of Tuesday morning, Hannah’s Hope Fund was ranked 46th.

Why are the numbers jumping so fast?

Favaro thinks she has an idea.

“What I think has helped us is that spinal muscular atrophy, SMA, is also dependent on delivery of a healthy gene to the spinal cord and our science is on target to be the first disease community to do that,” said Favaro. “If we’re successful, that will help SMA and some of these other geneticallybased neurological disorders.”

“It could have a lot of impact in a lot of different areas,” she added.

However, that’s only half of why the numbers are rising, said Favaro. It’s the support of people in the past two years that have attended bake sales, car washes, golf tournaments, dinners and every other fundraiser to raise money for the Hannah’s Hope Fund mission that’s made the organization successful and one step closer to a cure for GAN, she said.

“With the help of the North Country, we’ve reached every single milestone,” said Favaro, who noted the most notable milestone was successfully raising $500,000 toward a $1 million matching grant from the Sunshine Lady Foundation in Wilmington, N.C. “It shows when people come together, how can you lose?”

Though Hannah’s Hope Fund is trying to raise $1.3 million to fund human clinical trials in the fall of 2011, Favaro said she feels the $250,000 grant would make that milestone much more possible.

Voting for Hannah’s Hope Fund can be done free on-line at www.refresheverything.com/hannahshopefund. Votes may also be cast by texting 101885 to 73774 — the numeric translation for “Pepsi.” Standard text messaging rates apply. Votes may be cast once a day per person.

would get together and vote before lunch or whenever, that would really help,” said Favaro. “And, if local people vote and encourage their friends and family who live far away to vote, it’s just going to spread like wildfire.”

The top two vote-getters in their category at the end of the month will get their grants approved.

‘Cuts for a Cure’to help Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Aug.22

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PERU — When Brooke Taptick was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 10 days old, her parents didn’t know what to do.

“We were just in disbelief,” said Brooke’s mother, Meghan Daley Taptick. “It was almost like there was a cloud over our heads.”

Taptick, a Peru native, and her husband, Mike, who both reside in Rutland, Vt., didn’t know much about the chronic disease which affects a person’s lungs and digestive system. For Taptick, the words cystic fibrosis were ones that, at first, left her feeling “isolated and alone.”

“I hadn’t really heard of CF before. I didn’t know anyone who had it,” she said.

“That was a really scary thing.”

However, it wasn’t long before Taptick found the disease was more common than she thought.

“When I told all of my friends, it seemed like every one of them knew someone with CF,” she said. “People came out of the woodwork.”

The Tapticks were soon put in touch with other families who have or have had loved ones with CF through a parent advisory group at Vermont Children’s Hospital. It was a relief to the Tapticks to know they weren’t alone in helping a family member combat the disease.

“Talking to other moms with children that have CF is a huge help,” said Brooke’s mother.

When Brooke was first diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, the Tapticks took their daughter to see a CF specialist. There, the doctor said it was an “exciting time in the world of cystic fibrosis” because of the medical advancements that have been made since the condition was first discovered.

“It was kind of hard to hear that,” said Taptick. “But it was because they’re on the horizon of developing a drug that’s supposed to make a huge difference to everyone with CF, to make the cells work properly.”

The doctor informed the Tapticks that the life expectancy of a child with CF had grown from where it was even 10 years ago, when those with the disease weren’t expected to live past their 20s.

“Now it’s in the 30s and it’s quickly rising,” said Taptick. “I know someone who is 35 living with CF and when he was born, he wasn’t supposed to live past 7. That just

shows how far we’ve come.”

However, the estimated 30,000 Americans living with CF aren’t out of the woods, yet.

The disease still complicates the body’s ability to absorb fat and causes respiratory problems.

“In the lungs of people with CF, mucus forms making it harder to breathe, and the mucus can cause respiratory infections,” explained Taptick. “We’ve been lucky, though.

Brooke’s lungs have been clear every time we’ve checked.”

Now 16 months old, Brooke’s condition, however, requires her to undergo chest physical therapy twice a day for 25 minutes at a time.

pull the mucus off of her lungs,” explained Taptick.

Though there are other methods for helping combat the mucus problem, such as expensive high-tech vests, which do the same job and nebulizers to help with breathing, Taptick said she’d like to see more than remedies for the disease. She wants a cure.

That’s why Taptick is working with Colours Salon on Main Street in Peru to host “Cuts for a Cure,” Sunday, Aug. 22. The event will consist of haircuts by appointment with proceeds to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Appointments may be made by calling the salon at 643-2655.

Jeff Wyand Miracle Ride takes new route this Sunday

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Tom Wyand knows that if his son, Jeff, were here today, he’d be proud of the work done to help sick children through the Jeff Wyand Miracle Ride.

“But, he’d probably be a little embarrassed that the ride’s in his name,” said Wyand, who noted his son was a very modest person.

“Jeff never really sought the spotlight. When he was sick, he was one of those kids that just wanted everyone to treat him like he was normal.”

It was in December 2006 the Plattsburgh man lost his son to medulloblastoma — a common malignant childhood tumor that affects the central nervous system. Jeff was only 18 years old.

However, prior to his death, Jeff’s father worked to form a motorcycle ride in 2001 to raise money to help the families of children who had cancer. “Biking for Miracles” continued after the Wyand family’s tragic loss but adapted a new name in 2007 — the Jeff Wyand Miracle Ride.

Since its inception, the event has raised $330,000. Last year alone, the ride raised $53,000 and drew 800 riders. Eleven hundred people in all came out to support the event.

“It’s close to everyone’s hearts because it helps kids,” said Wyand. “Everybody knows kids who are sick. And, everyone knows kids aren’t supposed to go before the adults. I think that’s why everyone supports the ride.”

The ride has had several tweaks to its schedule and course over the years. Most notably, the ride changed from its starting point in Rouses Point to Ticonderoga, in order to encourage more riders to participate and give riders a change of scenery. This year, the starting point and ending point — which was typically the Naked Turtle — will change again.

“We’re going to start the ride at Vermont Children’s Hospital (in Burlington, Vt.) and end at Camp Ta-Kum-Ta in South Hero,” said Wyand. “We wanted people to see where their hard work and money has gone to over the years.”

However, that doesn’t mean New York is out of the Jeff Wyand Miracle Ride, said Wyand. In fact, two rides will leave the Plattsburgh area the morning of the Vermont ride with the intent for everyone to meet up at Vermont Children’s Hospital.

The New York rides will hold registration the day of the event, this Sunday, Aug. 15, from 8-9:30 a.m. Rides will start locally from North End Harley Davidson/Lake City Choppers, 568 State Route 3, and American Legion Post 1619, 219 Rand Hill Road. The Vermont ride will leave at 11:30 a.m. and end with a barbecue celebration at Camp Ta-Kum-Ta, a summer camp for children with cancer.

This year’s event will see the return of the ride’s “poker crawl.” Those who pay an additional amount to enter the crawl will be able to pick up playing

cards at the start and end of the ride.

When the ride ends, each participant is checked to see who has the best poker hand. Prizes will then be awarded for best and hand and bust hand.

Those interested in participating in this year’s Jeff Wyand Miracle Ride are encouraged to call 1-802-847-1010 or visit the ride Web site, www.jeffwyandride.org. Donations may be made on the site as well as sponsorships from businesses, which will receive a sign in their name posted on the ride route for donations of $100 or more.

Donations may also be made by mailing them to Fletcher Allen Health Care Development Office, 111 Colchester Ave., Burlington V.T. 05401.

The Jeff Wyand Miracle Ride will be held this Sunday, Aug. 15, in memory of the late Jeff Wyand. The event helps Vermont Children’s Hospital, which helped Jeff until he succumbed to cancer in December 2006.

Perras From page 1 “We got there at 4:30 p.m. and by 5:30 p.m. they were telling us it was leukemia,” Wanda recalled.

Laura was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, which according to www.cancer.gov, is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow.

After being in the hospital for two days, Laura was transported to Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington, Vt., where she has been since.

“Two weeks ago she was rushed into surgery and into ICU,” said Wanda. “We almost lost her.

It was a bacterial infection and to this day they don’t know what type of bacteria it was. They just bombarded her with antibiotics.”

Wanda explained due to Laura’s low immune system from chemotherapy, her body was unable to fight the bacteria in her body, causing her kidneys to shut down and problems with her liver and gall bladder.

Despite being on kidney dialysis, Laura seems to be improving every day by taking “baby steps,” according to Wanda, who added she is now out of the Intensive Care Unit.

Laura is also enrolled in a clinical study, as the type of leukemia she has is typically found in young children.

“You have a better chance of getting it as a child, and as you get older, it decreases,” Wanda explained, adding for the next three years, Laura will partake in aggressive treatment that is typically done with children.

With the way things are going, Wanda said doctors are hopeful.

“They’re saying that her markers, her genetic markers, are such that they’re very hopeful for a

However, with the trips Laura will have to take for chemotherapy, as well as the cost of prescriptions, her aunts Jennifer and Cindy Ackerman have been working to prepare a benefit to help raise money for her.

On Sunday, Aug. 22, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., there will be a fundraising benefit at the Champlain Veterans of Foreign War Post 1418. The day will include music by Zero Tolerance; emcee and disc jockey Chuck Deso, a volleyball tournament, horseshoe tournament, Chinese auction, barbecue picnic, face painting, dunking booth and other family-friendly events.

“What I have done is I opened up a bank account to put money in there to offset her financial burden for when she has to start traveling back and forth to chemo,” explained Jennifer. “Prescriptions, stuff that she needs personally. As of right now … it’s hard to tell what she might need.”

For more information about the benefit, contact Jennifer at 493-7487. Donations may be sent to Jennifer for Laura Perras’ Benefit Fund, 25 Laforest Road, West Chazy, N.Y. 12992.

Commuting ... at a snail’s pace

By John Gereau times_sentinel@denpubs.com LAKE CHAMPLAIN — Micheala Martin sat in an endless line of rush hour traffic last week, nervously drumming her fingers on the steering wheel.

The Crown Point ferry — her ride home — was nowhere in sight.

“This is ridiculous,” she said after stepping out of her car to talk about her daily commute. “I am half an hour late picking up my little girl at day care.”

Martin, who lives in Bristol and travels to and from work in Plattsburgh, said she routinely waits an hour or more to cross the lake where the Lake Champlain Bridge once stood.

Summer traffic has compounded the holdup, she said.

Work has begun to replace the bridge and a new crossing is expected to be open in about a year — but for commuters like Martin, that can’t come soon enough.

“It is impossible to plan or stick to a work schedule,” she complained, leaning against her car. “One day you zip right across, the next you wait an hour and a half.”

A few minutes later, the line moved a few hundred yards, transforming again to a parking lot for another 15 minutes as the two ferries crossed paths from one side to the other.

Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider said she empathizes with motorists, and said she has fielded a number of calls from commuters upset at the wait in Crown Point and Chimney Point, Vt. “I know it is frustrating,” she said. “What I am hearing is that it wasn’t that bad until summer hit. Now the wait can be substantial, especially during rush hour.”

a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m.

“I’m not sure what the answer will be,” she admitted. “I don’t know about the feasibility of running another ferry in the canal. It is pretty congested now with two.”

LCT Manager Margaret Murphy agreed that putting a third ferry in the rotation would only create gridlock. The company also does not have another ferry available at this time.

“Three boats there would be on top of each other,” she said. “I think they would be forced to travel down or up the lake to stay out of the way of one another.”

That scenario would also likely impact other boat traffic, she added.

Murphy said the last two weeks in July and first two in August are traditionally the busiest time of year for the ferry service.

She anticipates the problem to lessen in the fall.

“It will die down in September,” she said. “In the meantime, we work as efficiently as we can.”

The ferry service between Crown Point and Chimney Point, Vt. is a 24-hour service. There is no charge at the crossing, as the service is subsidized by Pictured above is the reflection in a sideview mirror of a line of cars waitthe two states. ing to board the the Lake Champlain ferry that transports motorists beWhile Martin said she appreciates not having to pay tween Crown Point, NY and Chimney Point, Vt. to cross, she said she is forced to at times when trying to make a tight schedule.

Kosmider said she plans to ask LCT officials about adding pensive.”

SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE The state encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid office, there are government agencies and nonprofit organizations that you may contact for information about possible options, including trying to work with your lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the toll-free helpline maintained by the New York State Banking Department at 1-877BANK-NYS (1-877226-5697) or visit the department’s website a t WWW.BANKING.STA T E .

FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS Be careful of people who approach you with offers to “save” your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner’s distress.

You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge,

Speak to an attorney or go to the court where your case is pending for further information on how to answer the summons and protect your property.
