sarah@denpubs.com CHAMPLAIN — The village of Champlain has truly embraced the Quadricentennial, hosting three major events in recent months, which have brought out the crowds.

According to Celine R. Paquette, curator of the Samuel de Champlain History Center, from the Memorial Day celebration at Point au Fer to the Quadricentennial Mass held a few weeks ago at St. Mary’s Church to the most recent Community Day held Aug. 8, she is “pleased” by the efforts the village, town and Quadricentennial Committee have put forth.

“I heard from people who don’t normally give compliments say, ‘Wow, what a wonderful day,’” Paquette

ELLENBURG CENTER — When the Ellenburg Center Volunteer Fire Department’s flag was destroyed during a windstorm, the department knew they needed a new one. And, they turned to Rep. John M. McHugh, R-Pierrepont Manor, for help.

According to Nathan Labombard, the fire department’s rescue captain, McHugh had a flag flown over the country’s capital “in memory of our fallen members,” before it was brought to Ellenburg Center to be raised.

The department was hoping to have a ceremonial flag dedication and memorial service earlier in the year, but with busy lives and busy schedules, it had to be postponed.

“We were having our [lawn mower] races today, and we turned it into a dedication of the flag and memorial,” explained Nathan Labombard.

The flag dedication and memorial service was held at the fire station on Church Street Aug. 9, and included a reading of prayers by Franklin County chaplain Dick Bolster, who filled in for Clinton County’s chaplain, who was unable to attend.

“I think it’s great that the department honors their past, deceased members,” Bolster said. “They did a fine job.”

The department also extended an invitation to members of local government, including Legisla-

tor Samuel J. Trombley, R-Area Two. “It’s just great what you did here today,” Trombley said to members of the fire department. “I don’t believe that this has ever been done before; it hasn’t been done in my time.”

On behalf of the Clinton County Legislature, Trombley thanked the department for their service.

“We know that you don’t only put out fires,” Trombley said. “The EMTs are out there, your ambulances are out there, and you do all sorts of good community things.”

Thinking back to the Ice Storm of 1998, Trombley remembered receiving calls from local farmers who didn’t have generators to milk their cows.

“When they say that ‘grown men don’t cry,’ I had men coming in my office with tears in their eyes,” said Trombley.

Trombley worked with the Ellenburg Center fire department and was able to get enough generators for three farmers to share one.

“By doing all that you pulled through and by golly we thank you for everything, everything, everything that you do,” said Trombley.

Fire Chief Matthew Labombard also felt the ceremony made for a “good day.”

“It was a wonderful remembrance to be able to do this for the first time in the department,” Matthew Labombard said. “It was nice to be able to remember past members.”

Kindred Spirit Yoga brings benefits to children

ROUSES POINT — With a combined 25 years of practicing yoga and backgrounds in curriculum and elementary education, Mandie Bechard and Sonya Lague have worked together to create Kindred Spirit Yoga.

According to their mission statement, Kindred Spirit Yoga aims to be “an innovative children’s yoga program that integrates yoga with curriculum-based learning and character development.”

Bechard and Lague began their business last October, after seeing the need for it in young children.

“We’re neighbors so we got to know one another and we have the same common interests,” explained Lague. “So, we just said, ‘Hey, let’s do this together.’”

Lague began doing yoga with her own two children a couple years ago, eventually deciding to become certified

in teaching yoga to children. Soon, Bechard did the same.

“There are many benefits,” Lague said. “One is that they learn from this.

They learn self-awareness as well. You teach them to deal with their feelings.”

“It’s also very noncompetitive,” added Bechard. “It’s a way for all the kids to be seeing one another and be together and they can be silly together, they can be serious together and calm.

They really learn to get along.”

According to a brochure provided by Bechard, some benefits of bringing yoga to children include raising self-esteem, increasing focus, bringing a sense of empathy and compassion towards one another, and helping with Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

“We adapt [the classes] to the needs of each child that is participating,” explained Lague. “Every child brings in their own uniqueness to the class.”

Kindred Spirit Yoga is also curriculum-based. During sessions, a book is

often read to the children and they do poses based on what the book is about.

“It teaches them attention, focus and actually when you ask questions and they respond back, those are all prereading skills,” said Lague.

“It’s listening skills, it’s comprehension skills,” Bechard added. “It’s strange you can take a yoga class and have all those be met as well.”

Currently, Bechard and Lague are working with preschool-aged children, but are planning to expand up to age 8 in the fall. They are also considering working adults in the future.

“Our hope is for growth and expansion,” Bechard said.

“We look forward to expanding out into the community,” added Lague.

Candidates chosen for Congressional election Scozzafava, Hoffman, Owens named as frontrunners in three-way race for McHugh seat

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com The candidates have been chosen for an anticipated special election in the 23rd Congressional District.

Committee members in the major parties have selected their candidates to fill the seat of Rep. John M. McHugh, R-Pierrepont Manor, who is expected to have his presidential nomination as Secretary of the Army confirmed in the next few weeks.

Republican candidate Diedre “Dede” Scozzafava, Conservative candidate Doug Hoffman, and Democratic candidate Bill Owens have emerged as Scozzafava the frontrunners in a three-way race for the yet-to-be-vacated seat.

Scozzafava, 49, of Gouverneur, is a state Assemblywoman representing New York’s 122nd Assembly District, which encompasses Lewis County and much of St. Lawrence and Jefferson counties.

She was chosen July 22 by a committee of GOP party chairs in each

of the 11 counties within the Congressional District.

“I’m very honored to have received the nomination,” she said, praising the open process by which party chairs interviewed the field of nine candidates. She has also been endorsed by the Independence party.

Scozzafava said she plans to focus her campaign on issues like job creation, economic development and energy costs, which she sees as important.

“I think there’s a very independent streak of people in the 23rd Congressional District,” said Scozzafava, “and I think there are a lot of people tired of party politics.”

Essex County Republican chair Ron Jackson described Scozzafava as an excellent candidate and a proven vote-getter. Though she tends to be more moderate on social issues like abortion and gay marriage, he said her record of fiscal conservatism should outweigh concerns she is too liberal.

“I think that the majority of people understand her and will support her,” said Jackson. “I don’t think she will lose as (many voters) as she will gain for her consistency.”

Some of Scozzafava’s left-lean-

ing views have put off many conservative Republicans, however, and Conservative party leaders chose Lake Placid accountant Doug Hoffman to challenge her.

Hoffman, 59, is the managing partner of Dragon, Benware, Crowley & Co., an accounting firm with offices throughout the North Country.

He had originally Hoffman run as a Republican, but sought the Conservative nod after GOP leaders chose Scozzafava. He was chosen Aug. 6 by a committee of party chairs.

“I have not left the Republican Party,” Hoffman said at an Aug 5. press conference in Plattsburgh.

“The Republican Party has left me and has turned its back on the voters of the 23rd Congressional District and on the values that made our party strong.”

Hoffman said his more socially conservative views better reflect the moral fiber of North Country voters, and Scozzafava is too willing to allow government spending.

“I am a fiscal conservative who believes that our government lead-

ers are spending money we don’t have,” he said. “Ms. Scozzafava may say she is a fiscal conservative, but her record in Albany says otherwise.”

Though he has never been an elected official, Hoffman said his experience as a business owner and former board member of the Adirondack Economic Development Corporation speaks to his ability to create jobs.

The field of candidates expanded once more Aug. 10 when Democratic party chairs decided on Plattsburgh lawyer Bill Owens as their candidate.

Owens, 60, is an attorney with Stafford, Owens, Pillar, Murnane & Trombley PLLC in Plattsburgh. He is a veteran of the Air Force and has had a hand in forming the Plattsburgh Airbase Redevelopment Corporation.

“I’ve devoted my career to serving our country and helping create jobs in New York State,” Owens said. “I am running for Congress to use my experience to get our local economy moving again and create good paying jobs.”

Owens said he was proud to have the support of Democratic party leaders, who called him “an effective, independent voice for

our priorities.”

“I’ll work to bring home federal investments for our infrastructure and schools, private business investment like we brought into PARC, and help for our dairy farmers who are suffering from severe price deflation,” he said. “And I’ll work to make sure our servicemen and women at Fort Drum get the support they deserve.”

If history is any indicator, Owens may have his work cut out for him. No Democrat has been elected to Congress in the region since the 1870s. RegisOwens tered Republicans outnumber Democrats in the district about three to two.

Gov. David A. Paterson, who is charged with setting a date for the special election, has yet to do so.

Jackson said holding the special election along with the rest of the November 2009 elections would save money and effort for the 11 counties involved.

“I think the governor will show some common sense and have it then,” he said.

New York Naval Militia assists Border Patrol on Lake Champlain State force assists in enforcing border crossing rules

New York Naval Militia Petty Officer Garrett Aldershoff watches as Border Patrol agent Mike Cisco moves out to intercept a boat coming across the United States-Canadian border on Lake Champlain during an inspection enforcement operation July 25.

ROUSES POINT — During the month of July, the New York Naval Militia assisted the United States Border Patrol for the second year in inspecting pleasure craft entering the U.S. from Canada on Lake Champlain.

A Naval Militia boat and two-man crew joined Border Patrol agents from July 3-30 in inspecting boats entering the U.S. at Rouses Point, directing them to a Customs and Border Protection inspection station.

The Border Patrol routinely mounts operations during the summer to remind boaters of the need to checkin as they enter the U.S. A newly-opened inspection port has reportedly made this process easier for boaters. During the peak boating season, 100-150 boats will pass through the border daily.

The Naval Militia crews on Patrol Boat 280 — a 28foot, twin engine, aluminum

hulled boat — would intercept visiting boaters, explain the inspection process, and direct them to the Customs station, in conjunction with Border Patrol agents on personal watercraft.

“The members of the New York Naval Militia continue to be a strong partner and have been a great force multiplier for the U.S. Border Patrol,” said Swanton Sector Chief Patrol Agent Daniel B. Doty. “Their expertise and professionalism during Operation Lake Champlain has allowed us to reallocate our agents to other parts of the lake and provide increased border security in our area of operations.”

“We look forward to continue working with the NYS Naval Militia to protect the citizens of NY State and the rest of the United States for years to come,” Doty added.

The New York Naval Militia, one of six such forces in the U.S., is a component of the New York Military Forces commanded by the adjutant general, Maj. Gen. Joseph Taluto. During the joint operations, the Naval Militia members were in State Active Duty status, working at the direction of Gov. David A. Paterson and being paid by the State of New York.

“The men and women of our Naval Militia make daily contributions to home-

land security, and this joint operation with the Border Patrol is another example of their service dedication,” Taluto said.

“This operation is perfect example of the important role the Naval Militia can play working with law enforcement and homeland security on New York's waterways, “ said Naval Militia Commander, Maj. Gen. Robert Wolf. “Our country and state benefits from this mission and our members receive valuable training in working with federal officials.”

The Naval Militia is composed of approximately 2,500 members of the Marine Corps, Navy and Coast Guard Reserves who agree to perform state missions when needed at the order of the governor as well as a small group of retired reservist members.

The Naval Militia maintains a fleet of ten patrol boats in its Military Emergency Boat Service which support law enforcement agencies, the U.S. Coast Guard and other federal agencies. The Naval Militia works regularly with the United States Coast Guard in New York Harbor, carrying inspection teams out to ships waiting offshore to enter the harbor about Patrol Board 440, a state-of-the-art patrol boat.

“We thought it would be great to have some fun kids activities so while the parents are shopping, the kids can get their faces painted or get a balloon animal,” said Osborne Long.

The timing of the sale will coincide with the townwide garage sales in Schuyler Falls that weekend, said Gonyea, who hopes it will help provide for a greater turnout for the inaugural event.

“We figured they could stop here on their way in or out of town,” said Gonyea.

“There’ll be a large variety,” added Osborne Long. “I think we’ll do well.”

The community yard sale will be held next Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. During the two-day event, team registration will also be taken for those who have not yet signed up for September ’s walk.

By having a registration table at the community yard sale, Osborne Long said she hopes to receive enough interest from people to build upon the 1,200

participants at last year ’s walk.

“We’re really pushing to get the word out because if people come to see the walk, that’s great, but we want them to be able to plan ahead so they can do some fundraising and join in,” she said.

“If we can people out there early asking for donations, they’ll really be able to help their teams.”

The Plattsburgh Heart Walk will be held this September at the PARC Oval, and is one of 450 walks of its kind across the nation. The goal of this year ’s walk is to raise $150,000. Osborne Long said she hopes to surpass last year ’s more than $144,500 raised for the nonprofit heart health organization.

Those interested in more information about the Heart Walk, including how to register, may call Osborne Long at 5699387 or via e-mail at faith.long@heart.org or visit www.plattsburghheartwalk.org. If interested in hosting a table during the community yard sale, contact Gonyea at 593-3254 or via e-mail at kric819@yahoo.com.

MORRISONVILLE — Faith M. Osborne Long and Kristie L. Gonyea are banking on the notion everyone loves a bargain. That’s why they’re organizing the area’s first community yard sale to benefit the American Heart Association.

Osborne Long and Gonyea are organizing the two-day event to be held at the Clinton County Fairgrounds next Saturday, Aug. 22, and Sunday, Aug. 23.

The idea for the community yard sale, said Osborne Long, came from the success of similar sales hosted by organizations like Plattsburgh Relay for Life and local chapters of Habitat for Humanity International.

“They always seem to do so well, so we thought, rather than having individual garage sales, why not have one big one,” said Osborne Long, who also serves as regional director for the Northeast affiliate of the American Heart Association.

The sale will not only raise money to fight heart disease and stroke, but also raise awareness of the 2009 Plattsburgh Heart Walk, to be held Saturday, Sept.

26. The sale will feature tables hosted by participating Heart Walk teams, who will collect the money they raise to later be donated as part of their team’s overall contribution through the walk.

“We wanted to have the teams host their own tables and really get them involved,” said Osborne Long. “And, we decided that made more sense instead of just dropping items off and having to figure out what money goes toward which team.”

Already, the community yard sale has the majority of its 30 spaces reserved by Heart Walk teams. An added attraction for bargain-hunters, said Osborne Long, will be fresh produce and other food to be offered during the event, as well as jewelry, crafts and scrapbooking items for sale by local vendors.

“It just gives us a little bit more of a mix,” she said.

The sale will also include an appearance by the American Heart Association mascot “Ticker,” as well as State Uni-

CHAZY — An open house will be held at Chazy Town Hall, 9631 State Route 9, next Saturday, Aug. 22, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Local agencies and companies will also display items and provide information for residents who may need assistance with the coming winter months.

Complimentary refreshments will be served.

The term netbook is applied to laptops with a 10-inch or smaller screen that is mostly designed to access Web sites, perform e-mail chores and chat on-line.

The Asus Eee PC was one of the original netbooks that still remains popular today. Asus set the bar in many ways as they produced models with solid state or serial hard drives and built-in wireless adapters. The pricing of some models starts around $300.

Other popular netbooks include the HP Mini 1000, Acer Aspire One, Dell Inspiron Mini 9 and the MSI Wind. The Dell netbooks are probably the best-known given Dell’s reach into the computer marketplace. They have very attractive prices but the features on some models, such as hard drive space and RAM, are a little light compared to other netbooks.

The MSI Wind U123 model was reviewed in the September issue of Maximum PC. Earning a score of 9 on a scale of 10, the folks at Maximum PC thought the Wind lasted the longest on battery power of any netbook previously tested

Knowing and accepting physical limitations

A

SATURDAY August 15, 2009

s a caregiver, you are probably aware of the physical toll caregiving can take. Lifting, reaching, and bending can put a considerable strain on the back and its related muscle groups. Here are some tips to prevent back problems, courtesy of Peter Ganther from Today’s Caregiver: • Recognize your lifting limitations: Do you have knee, back, or hip problems? If you do, improper lifting may aggravate them.

• What can you use to make lifting easier? This may include wheelchairs, sliding boards, walkers, canes, and lift belts.

• Let your loved one know you are about to move them, so they will be ready to cooperate with your efforts.

• Ask the person in your care to assist you, if possible.

• Make sure your loved one is wearing shoes or non-skid slippers so they will not slide on the floor, creating an unsafe situation for both of you.

• Do not jerk, or suddenly pull, the person in your care.

Easy does it!

• Try to always transfer from the strongest side of your loved one.

• If the person in your care starts to lose their balance, gently lower them to the floor, bracing them against your legs.

If you are unable to help them stand back up, have someone assist you.

As the saying goes, “lift with your legs and not your back.” This requires a bit of planning prior to lifting, so that your legs will be in position to bear the brunt of the exertion.

Ask your health-care professional if there are any stretching exercises you can do to strengthen your back.

Remember taking care of yourself will enable you to better care for your loved one!

Do the stores lose when couponers win?

I

f you’re a regular reader of my column by now you know I love paying as little as possible for my groceries. Getting many things for free is great for the household budget, and it’s fun, too. Yet, as you start to see your weekly grocery bill dropping by a third or even by half, you may start to wonder, “Is my store losing money because I use coupons?”

You’ll be happy to know your store doesn’t lose a dime when you use coupons. In fact, they make more money when you use coupons to save. The next time you’re clipping coupons, read the fine print on one. The text reads, “Manufacturer will reimburse retailer the face value of this coupon plus $0.08 handling fee.”

Did you catch that? Not only does the store get back the coupon’s entire worth, it also will receive from the product manufacturer a payment of 8 cents per coupon redeemed.

Now, 8 cents may not seem like a lot, but if I take 20 coupons to the store this week, the store will make an extra $1.60 during my shopping trip. I save money and the store makes more money. It’s a win-win.

In one of my coupon classes recently, someone asked me if the store still makes money when a shopper uses a coupon to get an item for free. Yes, it does. Here’s a great example. This week, my grocery store is having a “dollar sale” in which items are on sale for $1 each. Pairing $1 coupons with a $1 sale is one of the easiest and best ways to get grocery items for free. So, I had five $1 coupons during this sale and I bought five $1 items with them. Even though I got those five products for free my store will still get the $5 cost of those items reimbursed to them, plus 8 cents for each coupon I’ve used. I went home with five free products and my store will receive $5.40 from my coupons. Rest assured, even though you’re taking home free things, your store is still being paid for them … just not by you.

Why do manufacturers offer coupons that will many times give shoppers their items for free? Manufacturers want shop-

pers to try their products. They work hard marketing a brand and enticing shoppers to try it. They hope by offering a coupon you’ll try their product, realize that you can’t live without it, and continue to buy it on numerous occasions in the future. They’re trying to build brand loyalty and product awareness.

You also may wonder if the manufacturers themselves lose money when people use coupons. Manufacturers do, indeed, reimburse stores for each coupon shoppers use.

However, coupons are part of their larger business plans. Manufacturers spend millions to establish a new brand or continue cementing

By Jill Cataldo loyalty to an old one. They often need to make shoppers aware of varieties of existing products or seasonal items, and they’re willing to pay a certain amount of money in the form of coupons as part of these important marketing strategies.

Of the hundreds of thousands of coupon inserts that arrive in newspapers each week all over the country, the number of coupons that are actually cut out and redeemed at the stores by shoppers is around 6 percent. That’s it. About 94 percent of all coupons are thrown in the trash.

Reading that statistic always makes me cringe. All that “cash” being tossed away? It makes me shudder to think about all of the free goods that many people pitch into the recycle bin each week. If they only knew how many things they could get for free with those coupons.

Who doesn’t want to get things for free? Almost everybody does. Coupons make it very easy to get items for free. Next week, I’ll tell you another easy way to get free groceries with coupons.

New York City instructor teaches art of choreography to local students

Rebecca Kelly, artistic director for Rebecca Kelly Ballet, New York City, gives instruction during a workshop she conducted at Guibord's North Country School of Ballet in Plattsburgh.

Photo by Jeremiah S. Papineau

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — If Shakespeare was right when he said, “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players,”then there have to be choreographers to make sure the show goes on.

Guibord’s North Country School of Ballet recently hosted a workshop conducted by Rebecca Kelly, artistic director of Rebecca Kelly Ballet, New York City. The workshop centered on teaching choreography to students of Debbie Guibord-Stay, the school’s director and artistic director of the North Country Ballet Ensemble.

The workshop is the most recent one hosted by Kelly at Guibord’s North Country School of Ballet, with which she’s had a partnership for nearly a decade. Kelly became acquainted with the school while conducting “On Stage,” a dance performance summer day camp in Lake Placid. During the 1990s, a student from Guibord’s came to one of the camps and the connection between Kelly and the Plattsburgh

school was made from there.

“We eventually were invited to do projects with them,” said Kelly. “It was about six or seven years ago, Debbie urged me to think about teaching choreography to youths.”

Having traditionally taught choreography to adults, the concept was new to Kelly. She decided to take on the challenge and was pleased with the results after working with her first group of students. Several of the students, with whom she worked for about six years, have gone on to either pursue choreography, dancing or dance instruction professionally, she said.

With that track record, Guibord-Stay was excited to have another group begin receiving instruction from Kelly this summer.

“It’s exciting for me because we’ve already been successful with one group,” said Guibord-Stay. “As a director, you always strive to bring new experiences to your students, to widen their horizons and bringing someone in like Rebecca Kelly does that.”

Throughout the course of the summer workshop, Kelly was able to help

the students choreograph their own dances and better understand what it means to be the one in charge of giving direction to fellow dancers.

“Some students come in with the assumption that they can’t wait to tell everyone what to do, but it isn’t really like that,” said Kelly. “When you work in choreography you’re really engaging all the senses. You’re working collaboratively and cooperatively and you’re bringing together every aspect of the art of dance.”

“It’s not always understood that choreography is an art form,” Guibord added. “It’s not something you can just walk in and do. You really do study it.”

Lauren Grand of Plattsburgh, one of the students who attended the workshop, said she learned a great deal from Kelly’s instruction.”

“I thought it was wonderful to have Rebecca Kelly here,” said Grand. “She taught me so much that I didn’t know.

I learned how to space my dances and how to direct people so they look better to the audience and to me; to make my dances more powerful. I learned so much.”

“I really enjoyed the workshop,” said fellow student Kelly Van Alstine of Peru. “It really made me think more about dance than I have before. We all had to work together in order for the dances to work, so it definitely shows you have to cooperate and work with everyone.”

Katherine Hausrath, another of Guibord-Stay’s students from Plattsburgh, said Kelly’s workshop made her think more about becoming a choreographer.

“I really enjoyed looking at dance in a completely different way than I had before,” said Hausrath. “[Choreography] is really fun and interesting to me.”

“Choreography is really about working together and I have to say I love working at Guibord’s because the kids work together beautifully,” said Kelly.

“Debbie just creates an environment that’s conducive to collaboration, which is great for teaching choreography. And, in my opinion, the world might be better on if there were more choreographers in it.”

NORTH COUNTRYMAN - 9

Community Day From page 1 painting, storytelling, music, and the release of 400 balloons in honor of the Quadricentennial.

Another special event was a tree planting in honor of

the family of the first French settler, Prisque Asselin.

Charles Ashline, the oldest living member of the Ashline family, descendents of the Asselins, put in the first shovel-full of dirt around the tree. His granddaughter, Joyce Kilmer, read a poem she wrote titled, “Trees.”

“I want to give credit to the whole committee,” Paquette said. “I don’t want to single out people because everyone was so involved. It takes a lot of people pitching in and doing their share.”

Paquette also took advantage of the large crowds that came out for Community Day by having the Samuel de Champlain History Center open to the public.

“I’ve been looking forward to coming here for a long time,” said visitor Jim Gero of Rouses Point.

“I grew up here in village,” Gero explained. “So, this is as much home as Rouses Point. I’ve watched the changes for 42 years and to see something renewed is a real encouragement.”

Philippe Payette of Montreal also visited the center, commenting on how “beautiful” it was.

“They put a lot of work into it,” he said.

“For so long people have been asking, ‘When will it be open,’” Paquette said of the center. “We put together an exhibit ... very, very quickly.

It’s just a preview of things to come.”

“I think people were impressed,” she added.

During the open house, people were also able to see the newly-installed stainedglass window of Samuel de Champlain.

“I saw something like that in Quebec City and that’s where I got my inspiration for it,” Paquette explained of the window.

Paquette met with JeanJacques Duval, a stainedglass designer from Willsboro. Together, with Paquette’s architect, Duval and Paquette were able to create

The Samuel de Champlain History Center was open during Champlain’s Community Day Aug. 8, giving people the opportunity to see the newly-installed stained-glass window featuring the likeness of Samuel de Champlain. The window was created by Jean-Jacques Duval. For more pictures from Community Day, see page 6.

the stained-glass window which fits in an arch over double doors on the first floor.

The work Paquette and other volunteers have put

into the center is something Gero considers “an immensely generous thing.”

“It’s something you’ll see maybe once in our lifetime,” Gero said.

Thanks for the precedent, Mr. Stiles A

“But beyond that, consider: a guy who plays a lead role in deciding who goes where and how within remote areas of the park, who has time and time again taken firm stances against motorized access, ‘finds’ a key to a gate, helps himself and then drives into an area which at the time — the gate is opened later in the year — was closed to motorized access,” Piatt wrote. “This is a guy who should be taking the parking spot furthest away from any trailhead, who should be following park regulations to a T and, when in doubt, erring on the side of caution.”

I have to agree strongly with Piatt’s sentiment — the difference is, Spitzer took responsibility for his actions — Stiles has done no such thing.

No apology. No admission of wrongdoing whatsoever.

It is no wonder the division between the Adirondack Park Agency and Adirondack residents exists, when you have people in power positions at the APA believing they are entitled to something the rest of us are not.

I have left my vehicle at many a locked gate and walked — with my kids for that matter — to a lake or pond whose access had been cut off due to poor road conditions. I like to think our forest rangers have a pretty solid reason for doing this, like the road could pose a hazard to those unaware of its condition.

When a gate is locked, the road is closed to motorized access. Period.

Would you drive around a barricaded road which had been closed because of an accident or natural disaster not knowing of the peril that may lay ahead?

nyone who missed the June 26 edition of New York Outdoor News is probably unaware of the controversy surrounding the chairman of the APA board, Curt Stiles, and his decision to open a locked gate to gain access this spring to a public camping area at Lake Lila.

The gate was closed for early season maintenance, but Stiles and three others, not wanting to hoof it the 5-plus miles to Lake Lila, decided to first summon the aid of a state forest ranger to open the gate and then, when one could not be found, root around for a hidden key.

They conveniently located one under a rock by the gate — as the story goes, left there by a property owner, and Stiles proceeded to drive down the dirt road. The road is a public easement through private property that winds into picturesque Lake Lila — part of the Whitney Preserve purchased by the state a decade ago.

The group was later found by a forest ranger, and while no tickets were issued, many are calling the move hypocritical by a man who has consistently come out in favor of restricting motorized access to public lands in the Adirondack Park.

New York Outdoor News Editor Steve Piatt is one such person. Piatt blasted Stiles in a June 26 editorial — even going so far as comparing his hypocrisy with that of former governor and attorney general Eliot Spitzer.

Piatt pointed out Stiles was the lone Adirondack Park resident on the APA board who voted against continued float plane access to Lows Lake.

He said many speculate Stiles didn’t “find” a key to the gate, but rather was provided one by someone at the state.

Apparently, Mr. Stiles would. And, those who work with him would no doubt defend his honor, which is exactly what happened here.

When asked if Stiles had broken any law, the APA and DEC determined he had not, because the road he accessed was a private road on which the state holds a conservation easement.

Interestingly, there are a number of similar easements held by the state where gates block access during certain times of the year.

Perkins Clearing in Arietta is one such location that comes to mind. Does this determination by the DEC mean the general public has the right to drive under or around that gate when it is closed for road maintenance?

Dangerous precedent, if you ask me.

So, next time you encounter a locked gate accessing a state conservation easement, leave no rock overturned in your quest to get through.

I’m going to go out on a limb here, however, and say when law enforcement approaches you, the outcome will be a shade different than what Mr. Stiles experienced.

Warren has first career win at Airborne SOUTH PLATTSBURGH — Joe Warren of West Chazy raced to his first career win in Versatile Trailer Sales Renegade 25-lap feature on Aaron’s/Banker Orchards Night at Airborne Speedway Aug. 8.

Warren, in his second season, took the lead from Keith Pelkey in turn two on lap eight and led Pelkey to the line by the width of a wheel after a lap 16 restart. He survived one more restart after rivals Kevin Boutin and Joe Daniels got their cars hooked together and spun off turn one.

“I didn’t really need another yellow,” Warren said.

When Warren’s closest challengers, Pelkey and Randy Ladue, scrubbed togeth-

er with two laps left, Robert Gordon and Josh Terry moved into contention.

“I looked up at the scoreboard and there were four laps to go, then the car took Keith on the side and then I saw that Robert Gordon was really coming,” Warren said. “I was counting the laps down.”

Bud Light Lime and The Green Room in Plattsburgh sponsor Warren’s No. 13. His crew chief is Steve Pion. The win moved Warren into a fourth place tie with Gordon in the Renegade championship point standings. He has five top-5 finishes in 12 starts.

Airborne Speedway is back in action this Saturday, Aug. 15, at 6 p.m.

HELP FOR HOMEOWNERS IN FORECLOSURE NEW YORK STATE LAW REQUIRES THAT WE SEND YOU THIS NOTICE ABOUT THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME. IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION, YOU MAY LOSE YOUR HOME. PLEASE READ THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT CAREFULLY. YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATELY CONTACT AN ATTORNEY OR YOUR LOCAL LEGAL AID OFFICE TO OBTAIN ADVICE ON HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF. 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 non-profit 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 1-877-BANKNYS (1-877-226-5697) or visit the department's website at WWW.BANKING.STATE.NY.US . 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, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services. § 1303 NOTICE NOTICE YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME If you do not respond to this summons and complaint by serving a copy of the answer on the attorney for the mortgage company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against you and filing the answer with the court, a default judgment may be entered and you can lose your home. 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. Sending a payment to your mortgage company will not stop this foreclosure action. YOU MUST RESPOND BY SERVING A COPY OF THE ANSWER ON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE PLAINTIFF (MORTGAGE COMPANY) AND FILING THE ANSWER WITH THE COURT. DATED: July 29, 2009 Steven J. Baum, P.C., Attorney(s) For Plaintiff(s), 220 Northpointe Parkway Suite G, Amherst, NY 14228 The law firm of Steven J. Baum, P.C. and the attorneys whom it employs are debt collectors who are attempting to collect a debt. Any information obtained by them will be used for that purpose.
