By Teah Dowling teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Candidates for the fi ve Clinton County Legislature seats up for election this year have started to emerge.

Republicans, so far, have candidates in three of the fi ve races and Democrats have contenders in all fi ve, including three incumbents.

Both parties recently met to endorse their candidates for county clerk, county coroner and a four-year term in one of the odd-numbered districts of the 10-member legislature.

“I’m very pleased with the candidates,” said Martin Mannix, Clinton County Democratic Party chairman. “I’m proud of where we are with our slate compared to the Republicans.”

P’burgh adoptee finds family after 42 years

By Teah Dowling

PAGE 5 SPORTS

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Phone calls and emails fi lled Dawn Lewis’ days trying to locate any detail about her birth family who she fi nally made contact with 42 years later on May 30.

After receiving back a DNA test from ancestry.com and nonidentifying information from the Clinton County Department of Social Services, she was able to link to her birth mother, who, along with the rest of her birth family, wish to remain unnamed.

Dawn initially made contact with her sister through a private Facebook message after the Clinton County DSS revealed her birth mother’s name and a surname and search angels located her sister’s name. From there, they exchanged numbers and talked on the phone, which eventually led to contact with her brother and lastly, her birth mother.

They all expressed that they wish to remain in contact with each other and pursue a relationship.

“I have a whole new family, and I fi nally feel complete knowing who I am and where I came from,” Dawn said with joy. “It has been a very long journey fi lled with many disappointments and, now, a lot of happiness.”

Dawn Lewis, who made contact with her family for the first time in 42 years, is pictured here as an infant.

Archer Bodyworks moves to new location on Broad Street

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Archer Bodyworks moved to its new location on the first floor of Dena Archer’s new home on 44 Broad St. “I’ve been visualizing this place and I’ve

been in love with this building for about three years,” Archer said. “I’m very happy with the new location; it turned out a lot better than I thought.”

At the end of February, she bought the twostory home for her and her two daughters, Ella (14) and Louisa (5), and opened the business

April 9, moving away and forward from her two previous locations on Durkee Street (seven years) and Oak Street (four years).

Before closing on the property, she already made arrangements with contractors to speed up the renovation process, taking five weeks with the help of the community.

“The community is really supportive,” Archer said. “Usually, I don’t ask for help, but, in this case, I had to ask for a lot.”

With the help of family friends, Archer moved her home from Oak to Broad in a little amount of time. The team at Champlain National Bank financed the move. Joshua Kretser of Pod Studios gave Archer advice with design during the renovation process.

The new space, equipped with hardwood floors, natural lighting, soft pastel colors and Archer’s own stained-glass windows, contains four treatment rooms, one more and all larger than the old location.

Each room has its own special characteristic.

The pedicure room contains two continuum plumbing-free pedicure chairs, which utilize a removable foot tub with disposable liners, making them more hygienic as each customer receives a new liner.

The couples massage room, one of the two massage rooms, includes a fireplace filled with candles to help provide a relaxing experience.

The last room holds the spa’s treatments such as waxing, facials, waxing, body scrubs and hydration wraps, along with a manicure section.

The spa also includes an infrared sauna that reaches temperatures of 140 degrees Fahrenheit, a treatment that helps sooth aches and pains, rid the body of heavy metals and increases white cell production.

This business is all made possible by a 30-year combined spa experience staff of six: three massage therapists, Archer’s daughter Ella working the front desk, an aesthetician/nail technician and massage therapist/owner Archer herself.

When Archer went to SUNY Plattsburgh in 1993, her best friend, who was getting her science electives out of the way to become a chiropractor, would tell her to go to massage school that way they could work together.

The next year, Archer graduated with a degree in human services and, in the winter, she went to Florida with friends to escape the cold

weather.

In a matter of a week, she found a massage school, job and apartment.

“I didn’t know any massage therapists and I never had a massage before I went to massage school,” Archer said, “but I felt like it was a sign for me to go.”

Archer received her license in massage therapy in 1994 and worked seasonally in Florida and the Hamptons for the first seven years and than three more in Manhattan.

She started her own business in 2000, located in her own in the small hamlet of Ausable Chasm near Keeseville.

Archer moved her growing space to Durkee Street in 2004, then to Oak Street in 2011 and finally to Broad Street.

In the next couple weeks, Archer will install a wheelchair ramp. In the future, she would like to install support bars to allow ashiatsu oriental bar therapy and a jacuzzi.

“We’re not a salon offering spa treatments and we’re not a medical office offering spa treatments,” Archer said. “We’re completely and purely a spa.”

Archer Bodyworks is open by appointment from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays and until 5 p.m. on Saturdays. The reception/ sales desk is staffed from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and until 4 p.m. Saturdays.

Cadyville VFD hosts its 50th Annual Field Day

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com CADYVILLE — The Cadyville Volunteer Fire Department 50th Annual Field Day takes place Sunday, June 14 from noon to 5 p.m. at the St. James Church Grounds with new activities.

“It started as a fundraiser for the fire department to raise additional equipment,” said Chuck Kostyk, Field Day chair. “It’s one of our dwindling number of community events available.”

At noon, a parade will start on Goddeau Road. It will run down Route 3 to the fire station and then up Church Street to the field day grounds.

Kostyk expects it to be a much larger parade and event than previous years with participation from other fire departments in the county due to it being the 50th anniversary.

After several years, the carnival rides are back and provided by Green Mountain Amusements.

Along with showing the county firefighters fire prevention “Smoke” trailer, there will be games for kids, a huge raffle and music by the Bootleg Band.

New to this year is a waterball competition for firefighters, which will start at 1 after the parade ends, where two teams of local fighters will battle with hoses to see who can move a volleyball-like ball down the wire, over 10 feet from the ground, furthest and fastest.

“It supports your local fire department,” Kostyk said. “It’s just a good opportunity for people in the area to get together.”

All events will run rain or shine. Food includes hamburgers, hot dogs, sausages, French fries, clams, clam chowder, cotton candy and more. Parking is available at the field day grounds and on the field of a local farmer next to the grounds.

For more information, contact Kostyk at cadyfd130@charter.net.

The Morrisonville Fire Department drove their way through the crowd during on of the Field Day parades in Cadyville.

Lake Placid makes cut for Ironman 70.3 World Championship Chattanooga, Tennessee and St. George, Utah named other two finalists

By Andrew Johnstone

andrew@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — A month removed from the announcement that Ironman pros would no longer compete in the Lake Placid race, the village made the cut as one of three fi nalists for the 2017 Ironman 70.3 World Championship triathlon.

In early May, Lake Placid was selected as one of 40 potential North American hosts to submit a bid for the race, and since then, the list has been narrowed down to it, Chattanooga, Tennessee and St. George, Utah.

“First of all, we’re excited about it,” said North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi. “What’s good for Lake Placid is good for the entire region. Two Ironmans in 2017, pretty neat if that were to happen.”

Ironman organizers expect the race to draw about 4,500 qualifi ers and that it would consist of two days of competition, one for women and the other for men. The 70.3 mile race — half the distance of the 140.6 event that’s been held in Lake Placid since 1999 — consists of a 1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike and 13.1-mile run.

Jim McKenna, CEO of the Regional Offi ce of Sustainable Tourism, explained that Ironman will send a site review team to Lake Placid in late July, and in August the fi nal decision on who will host the 2017 event will be made.

Until then, there will be contact with Ironman as ROOST and others sort out of logistics of the potential infl ux of competitors, as well as family and fans, coming in from scores of different countries to the Lake Placid area.

“We have a tried-and-true course,” McKenna said. “Being such a global event, our challenges are in the hosting of that many spectators within a close proximity to the race site. We’re dealing with Clinton, Franklin, Essex and Hamilton counties. Other cities aren’t reaching out quite that far.”

If Lake Placid does get the green light, the economic boost could be a substantial one. Athletes come to the area to not only compete, but train in the time leading up to the race. Politi said that the 70.3 World Championship, which would fall later in the summer, could bring as many as 20,000 people to the county.

“Ironman is an event that’s good for everybody, especially Essex county,” Politi said. “Athletes are here training all the time, and that’s just the buildup for the event. You take all the people for the regular Ironman and consider the possibility of another

5,000 for this particular event, that’s an awful lot of people training and visiting our community.”

The Olympic village has had a long-lasting relationship with Ironman. This year’s July 26 race will mark the 17th running of the event in Lake Placid, the longest active streak in the continental US and second only to the 140.6 championship held in KailuaKona, Hawaii.

Brian Delaney, who owns High Peaks Cyclery, knows a thing or two about Ironman — he’s done the Lake Placid race every year since it began, as well as in Hawaii, Florida, California and Utah — and said the 70.3 could play a major role in branding the village as a world-class destination for summer sports.

“I think it’s going to be just what we need,” Delaney said of the shorter race that’s drawing bigger and more diverse crowds.

“You think we’re busy now, it’s going to be on everyone’s radar screen to come and do the Lake Placid 70.3.”

Delaney said the trickle-down effect could lead to the area pulling high-profi le events in different sports, such as mountain biking, and continue to bring spenders in town in even more months of the year.

In the winter, tourists come to the area to ski the same trails as Olympic athletes did decades ago. The 70.3 course, he said, could make for a comparable draw.

Working in Lake Placid’s favor, perhaps, is its long standing as a destinations for triathletes, whether for over a hundred miles or less than twenty. Since 1984, Delaney has put on a Monday Night Mini-Triathlon, which starts at the beach on Mirror Lake and consists of a 400-yard swim, 12-mile bike and three-mile run.

With hundreds of different people taking part in it each year, he estimates it has helped introduce 10,000 people to the sport. (This summer’s series opener will be on Monday, June 22.)

One can think of the 70.3 as an in-between.

“The 70.3 doesn’t kill you,” Delaney said. “You can actually do something the next day. People want to train on this thing. We get phone calls in April, ‘Is the lake open? We want to start swimming.’ They’ll just train to the fall now.”

Since 2014, the 70.3 World Championship has rotated to sites around the world. The fi rst running was in Mont Tremblant, Quebec, while this year’s will be held in Austria and Australia will follow in 2016.

Then, perhaps, in Lake Placid.

“The rotation of the Ironman 70.3 World Championship has elevated the race and allowed athletes from all over the world to experience a World Championship event at fantastic locations,” said Andrew Messick, Chief Executive Offi cer of Ironman, in a statement released on May 26. “The fi nalists for the 2017 championship are all tremendous hosts to Ironman races and provide

70.3 World Championship finalists

Chattanooga, Tennessee Chattanooga, known throughout the Southeastern U.S. as the Scenic City with a vibrant downtown, lures athletes with its dramatic backdrop, idyllic weather and low-key southern charm. Host to Ironman and Ironman 70.3 events, Chattanooga provides a fast course with a swim in the Tennessee River. Four bridges cross the river over the swim and a pedestrian Riverwalk runs along the entire swim course making it ideal for spectators. Chattanooga is just 90 minutes from Atlanta and is full of attractions, eclectic dining spots and great places to stay.

Lake Placid, New York Having hosted two Olympic Games (1932 and 1980), this charming town knows how to deliver a world-class athletic event. Lake Placid, located in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains, hosts Ironman Lake Placid, the longest-running American event aside from the Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawai`i. Lake Placid has the amenities of a large city and the convenience of a small town, offering high-end restaurants, shopping and world-class accommodations.

St. George, Utah This striking Southwestern community currently hosts the Ironman 70.3 North American Pro Championship. St. George offers breathtaking scenery and views of the surrounding red rock canyons. The city’s walkable downtown area offers great local fare and boutique shopping. St. George is also only two hours from the nightlife of Las Vegas, with its neverending entertainment options. courses well suited for an event of this caliber. These cities also provide our athletes and their families world-class hospitality and endless scenic and entertainment options.”

For a village that already hosts two major summer events — the Lake Placid Horse Shows and the Summit Lacrosse Tournament — the 70.3 World Championship has the potential to be as big, if not bigger, of an event as the others.

Economic boosts aside, Politi expressed optimism for Lake Placid’s chances because of a characteristic the other two possible sites don’t possess — a rich athletic history that includes two Olympics.

“I think we have a really good chance,” Politi said. “This is the place of miracles. Everybody wants to win a miracle in Lake Placid.”

Youth Court program gives voice to teens, accepting apps

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Youth Court program will be accepting applications for new members to be part of a youth justice system.

“They can be a mentor to youth who had made poor choices,” said Susan Taskin, project coordinator. “It’s helped others.”

Clinton County Youth Court, which started in 1997, is a free program that provides an opportunity for people ages 13 to 18 from Clinton County school districts to serve as members of a court for young people who have committed offenses in the community.

Offenders, who will have been arrested or charged with an

offense and must volunteer to be referred to Youth Court, will be held accountable by their peers and sentenced to services that will benefi t both the community and themselves.

Typical cases include shoplifting, criminal mischief, vandalism and other low level offenses, which will be brought to attention before court members who have volunteered to make a one year commitment to the program.

Each member must successfully complete a law-related training course, which will cover a wide array of topics, to prepare each member to assume all of the Youth Court roles - judge, prosecutor, defender, clerk/bailiff, victim advocate, jury foreperson and jury.

“It’s a great program for youth empowerment,” Taskin said.

“It gives them a voice in their community.”

Besides participating in a court setting, members will also take

part in community service with places such as the local food shelf.

A new project recently started where Youth Court will have its own community garden plot that will be maintained by them or by youth program offenders. All the food grown will be donated to the local food shelf.

Interest forms must be sent to the Clinton County Youth Bureau at 137 Margaret St. by June 15. Training of new Youth Court members, which occurs once, possibly twice, a year, will take place in six-hour, two-day sessions on July 6 and 7. Potential youth members must get a 75 or higher on the fi nal exam to get a place in Youth Court.

For more information, contact Taskin, project coordinator, at 518-565-4750 or taskins@co.clinton.ny.us.

Baker to sing country western gospel songs MOOERS — On June 7 during the Morning Worship Service of the Mooers Wesleyan Church, beginning at 10:45 a.m., Trevor Baker will be singing country western gospel songs that he has written.

Also in the evening beginning at 6 p.m., Baker will bring a full concert. The location of the church is on the corner of the Hemmingford Road and Maple Street. All are invited.

From a boy on his daddy’s farm to a Christian singer/songwriter, Baker shares his love for God through his down-to earth “new country” sound and inspiring lyrics.

Stressing that his ministry is non-denominational, and not limited to Christian venues only, he also plays at fairs, festivals, schools and prisons. Many who would never darken a church door identify with Baker’s music and lyrics. His soft voice and gentle manner complement his message of hope and encouragement.

Baker has done well over 1,700 concerts in his 15 years of full time ministry. Previously to that there were several years of part time ministry, which included singing on street corners. God, in his own unique way, has placed Baker on many stages.

Feeling undeserving of such opportunities he has shared his message with many people of influence; including the Prime Minister of Canada. Baker has also sang in the United States at David Wilkerson’s Times Square Church in New York City twice.

After picking up the guitar in 1990, Baker went on to release 16 albums and three DVD’s, which have received airplay in Canada, the United States, Europe and other parts of the world. He has written and recorded over 170 songs to date.

Presently living in Tuxford, Saskatchewan with his wife, Jennifer, Baker takes time to reflect.

“I now know that true happiness comes from knowing God and trusting in his plan for my life and family. I intend to sing songs for him and him alone — that I might bring the message of the Gospel to so many who are searching for truth and stability in this old world.”

If one doesn’t want to do the work themselves or need extra help, they can contact local masonry and landscaping businesses.

Business cards of masonry and landscaping businesses can be found in the store located near Taylor Rental and Party Plus at 616 Route 3. Also, the store offers many different catalogs for a variety of DIY jobs with step-by-step instructions.

Delivery options are available and rates vary depending on the product, the quantity of the product and location Commercial Sales is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Visit Taylor Rental’s Facebook page, “Taylor Rental Plattsburgh,” for updates on the new store.

Lake Placid not suited for Olympic return

N

ews that Lake Placid may host the Ironman World Championships in 2017 is a signifi cant feather in the cap of local tourism offi cials and could put the small Olympic village back on the national scene the likes of which has not been seen since the Miracle on Ice 35 years ago.

The event could potentially draw 5,000 competitors and 20,000 friends and family for nearly a week at a time when locals could use the economic shot in the arm — the weekend following Labor Day, or the start of the region’s off-season.

Early projections estimate an economic infusion of more than $15 million from the event, which promises to trickle to outlying communities like the bubbling water of the Boquet and AuSable rivers.

To say this is tremendous news would be the understatement of the century and we laud those involved in attempting to make it happen.

The Ironman World Championship is exactly the type of event Lake Placid should be working to lure to its tight-quartered downtown — not the Winter Olympics.

Certainly Lake Placid’s storied Olympic history should never be ignored or forgotten. Lake Placid is the little town that could, managing to lock down two installments of the Winter Games — in 1932 and 1980.

It put the village on the international map.

But recent discussion from local bureaucrats about a potential bid for the 2026 Winter Olympics is a waste of time, energy and resources.

Quite simply, the Olympics have outgrown the Olympic village.

Submitting a serious bid to the International Olympic Committee would take a massive fi nancial investment Ñ for lodging creation, infrastructure upgrades, the creation of new parking lots, roads, stadiums and venues — to handle the immense number of athletes, tourists and the inevitable media frenzy that would converge on the region.

But most of all, it would take cash. Tons of it, and a local citizenry open to the idea of helping pay for it. That might be a tough sell when the effect to the average working class person would be negligible at best.

At the same time, imagine the nightmare of running it all through the red-tape-nightmare of the Adirondack Park Agency and then being left with the over development that has occurred with other recent Olympic hosts?

Consider the $169 million fi nal cost of the 1980 Olympics during which just 51,000 people were allowed into the village on any given day.

Then compare that to the $50 billion spent by the Russians on the Sochi games with hundreds of thousands of visitors from 134 countries in attendance.

Compared to Lake Placid’s 51,000-per-day limit, the Olympic Park in Sochi alone holds 75,000. Then there were 37,000 security offi cers and 13,477 members of the media on hand in 2014, and it took 25,000 volunteers to pull it off — more than 60 percent of the entire population of Essex County and four times as many volunteers as the 1980 Olympics.

Just imagine cramming that number of people in downtown Lake Placid. We can’t see that happening anytime soon.

The logistics of splitting the games between upstate communities or hosting a coordinated event with Canada is also unrealistic.

The thought of transporting that many people between venues during a two-week period is incomprehensible. And trans-border travel?

Think of the time it would take and security it would involve. And lets hope none of the athletes or members of their family have a misdemeanor in their past — because they aren’t getting in.

Then there is the thought of getting two separate Olympic Committees to work together — a feat akin to a unanimous vote of the US Congress on universal health care coverage.

There are plenty of events that fi t Lake Placid like a fi ne tailored suit. Events like the Lake Placid Horse Show, Empire State Games, World Cup and ECAC and Can-Am hockey tournaments to name a few. They all draw folks to the greater Lake Placid region, many of whom return once they’ve had a taste of the mountain air.

The quaint Adirondack village also continues to play a signifi cant role in the Olympic community. Its facilities are still used as training centers for Olympic contenders, with athletes traveling from around the nation to the Adirondacks to train.

These are all positives for Lake Placid and the region as a whole. They represent Lake Placid living within its means, and are the type of activities that will defi ne the future of the community.

The role Lake Placid played in Olympic history should be held dear and never forgotten.

Suggesting the village will ever again host the Winter Games, on the other hand, is backward thinking and counterproductive. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Letters to the Editor

God is involved To the Editor: The liberal ideology espoused by Mr. Binczik needs an abrupt rebuke. It is him and not Dan Alexander who has bungled the facts. It doesn’t matter when the words “under God” were added to the Pledge of Allegiance. Those two words were installed to recognize that we are a nation under the providence of the Almighty. As Pres. Reagan said, “If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”

Thomas Jefferson’s “wall of separation between church and state” only solidifi ed the author’s assertion that government is given no authority to establish a religion nor interfere in the practice of the faithful (or faithless). The “wall” was symbolic in that it would provide further protection for the people from the forcible hand of government in religious matters.

Yes, the Constitution did not contain the word God. However, our Declaration of Independence put a profound emphasis on our “Creator” at the outset. Jefferson wrote that it was “self-evident” that all men seen through God’s eyes are equal and bestowed with “certain unalienable rights“; neither to be taken from or given away by the possessor.

Our Founders knew, as most Patriots of today know, God is indeed involved with the affairs of men.

Honoring ‘Decoration Day’ To the Editor: Memorial Day was initiated in 1868 as “Decoration Day” to honor the fallen in the Civil War. The residents and neighbors of Crown Point have continued this observance for 147 years. We are proud of this tradition and wish to thank the following people and organizations: Fred V. Provoncha; Timothy J. Pierce, State Veterans Counselor; Pastor Robert Fortier; Patrick Kiely; Matthew Russell; Joan Hunsdon – Crown Point Town Historian; David Hobbs; Pastor Douglas Woods; members of the Bridge Flotilla (15-13) United States Coast Guard Auxiliary; Cindy Bodette and Alberton “Lucky” Eubar - members of A.E.

Adoptee

From page 1 SO MANY QUESTIONS Case worker Joan Tyler told Dawn’s adoptive parents, Larry and Nancy Lewis, that she was born on or around Aug. 6, 1972, possibly at CVPH in Plattsburgh — weighing approximately six pounds and 14 ounces and possibly 19 3/4 inches long.

According to non-ID information gathered by the Clinton County DSS, her birth mother was 24, or 20 or 22 according to her adoptive parents, at the time of her birth, who had two other kids, who were not gender specifi ed at the time.

When she was born, Dawn was given the name Lynette Mary or Lynette Marie, which she either obtained through her birth mother or the Clinton County DSS. Supposedly, a “grandmotherly” type woman took care of her until 3 months old when Larry and Nancy adopted her.

Though she’s starting to discover what really is true, most of her nonID information didn’t match the information her adoptive parents were given at the time of her adoption.

GROWING UP ADOPTED After Dr. Pulrang delivered her and her birth mother signed the adoption papers Aug. 18, 1972, a Clinton County Social Services case worker handled and Judge Irving Goldman fi nalized the adoption with the military family.

Larry was active in the air force. Dawn, her adoptive parents and their biological son and daughter traveled overseas and eventually ended up in Idaho where she still resides today.

Dawn’s parents revealed her adoption at 7 years old.

“There were ups and downs and there were some issues surrounded with being adopted,” she reminisced. “I never felt like I quite fi t in.”

Dawn began her search when she turned 18, stopped in 2003 and restarted again just a month ago because of her aunt Patti Roberts, who created a poster and generated it online to over 80 groups on Facebook throughout the Clinton County area.

MULTIPLE DEAD ENDS At the beginning of the search, Dawn had sought out a search angel to check her birth records at CVPH. The search angel said she had checked the CVPH birth records and there was no record of female birth on her birthday in that hospital.

The nurse contacted her once again when she restarted her search and said she didn’t actually check those records... she had checked the newspaper archives instead.

Lewis had also contacted a unnamed female caseworker at Clinton County DSS for more or updated non-identifying information. The caseworker sent a letter back stating she didn’t respond to her request because she had already provided her the non identifying information.

“This whole process is very emotional, and you hit every emotion you can hit with it,” she said. “At one point, it absolutely consumed me to fi nd my family, so I had to step away...I quit.”

After her aunt approached her and offered to help fi nd her birth family, Dawn had several people reach out to her through private messages and emails, most offering tips and advice from their own similar stories.

She had one lady messaged her through Facebook saying she was looking for a half sister, but did little responding since.

FINALLY GETTING INFORMATION When she restarted her search, she went straight to the commissioner with an email asking to provide her with all the non-identifying information.

He responded to her a few weeks ago stating that a meeting needs to occur with legal representatives to see what information could be given.

She heard back May 29.

Burroughs and assistant for the sound system; Charles Harrington, Supervisor of the Town of Crown Point; Pastor Gregg Trask USCG AUX; Rev. David Hirtle, USAF ret & USCG AUX; Trooper Brad Peters for escort and traffi c control during the tour; Chairperson Jodi Gibbs and the members of the Memorial Day Committee; Charles Mazurowski, Town Board member and US Army ret; members and leaders of Troop #70 Boy Scouts of America, for the US fl ag presentation; and Erick DuShane and Noah Peters for their rendition of Taps.

This year we thought it appropriate to salute a Veteran at each stop with a profi le of their service and life. In saluting one we hoped to honor all who served. Thank you to Carol Stanley (his widow) and her family for telling us about Korean War Veteran Benjamin Stanley; to Pastor David Hirtle for telling the story of A. C. Woods who gave his life during the Civil War; to Karen Sheets (his widow) and her son, Matthew Whitford, who honored Crown Point’s only fatality during the Vietnam War – Lynn C Whitford; to Regent Deanne Dresser and the members of the Ticonderoga Chapter, National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution for relaying the profi les of the 5 confi rmed American Revolutionary Patriots from Crown Point; and to David Hobbs – adopted son of Crown Point – who told us about Richard Ebersbach, a World War II pilot. Civil War Veterans, Philo Bell and John Hammond, were honored at the Putnam Creek Bridge and Forestdale

by Kama Ingleston. Thank you to one and all.

We also wish to remind people of the caretakers of the solemn places we visited on Memorial Day and are visited by family and friends through-out the year. Those who care for cemeteries and monuments in our community deserve our thanks for a tremendous job. Thank you.

We would like to remind you again, if you have a veteran in your family, who was born in Crown Point or enlisted while a resident of Crown Point, please contact either of us or a Memorial Day Committee member so their name can be listed in the Memorial Day booklet for next year. The veteran does not have to be a war veteran just an honorably discharged serviceman or woman.

Remember to honor those who gave their lives not only on Memorial Day but everyday by saluting the fl ag. When you place your hand over your heart during the National Anthem, Taps or the presentation of the American Flag it will make you proud to be a Citizen of the United States and it just might make the person next to you do the same.

Kama Lee Ingleston Jeanne McMurtry Solemn Tour Coordinators

At that time, she found out the fi rst name and middle initial of her birth mother, a surname and that her blood type is A- and Rh+. Nonidentifying information in the past gave information stating that her birth mother’s mother had high blood pressure and diabetes and that her birth mother’s mother and grandmother were obese.

After her aunt bought her a DNA kit from ancestry.com, she received the results recently, which she processed May 11, and made contact with her birth family.

“First contact was a bit surreal and it was a bit nerve wracking...I feared rejection,” Dawn said. “But overall it was great and I’m hopeful and now looking forward to long relationships with my biological family.”

FINALLY FINDING ANSWERS Dawn’s drive for this search partially came from her having some serious medical conditions and concerns, making her unable to work.

The driving force, however, was for the family she raised consisting of four sons and one daughter and two grandsons and one granddaughter.

“I wanted my children to know where they come from; I wanted my grandkids to know where they come from,” she said. “I needed to know.”

After starting and restarting her search, being part of many registry and online search and reunion sites and days of emails, phone calls and internet searching, Dawn has fi nally made contact with her family.

“I would like to thank my many supporters for sharing my story, giving words of encouragement and just being there when I need an ear, and I would like to give a very special thank you to my aunt,” she said.

“Without her, along with my many supporters, this wouldn’t of been a possible search.”

THE NEXT STEP Dawn hopes to be able to get funds together so she can return to New York for a reunion with her birth family.

Since she’s unable to work due to her medical conditions, it leaves another closed door to fi nding her family, but she’s optimistic that another door will open.

“To just have names and pictures of my family is amazing,” Dawn expressed. “But now I’m hoping for one more miracle.”

Alexander From page 6

would this place be and how thankful and respectful would we be with each other? Oh sure, we would still have problems to resolve but we would be far more understanding and willing to work with each other to overcome the challenges while valuing the irreplaceable things.

Is any day not a great day when you have your health, family and the freedom to pursue your version of happiness, not at the expense of others? The most self destructive thing we can do in life is to assume that our happiness comes from someone else’s misery. In life, in politics and in our communities happiness is built on the simple joys of building something together and celebrating the joy of that accomplishment. This country, while far from perfect, will only find its way out from under the dark clouds when we remember to cherish how far we’ve come as a nation. We must remember to work together to pass along that same opportunity to the generations that follow and to the nations whose people long for the gifts we take for granted.

A treasure chest

O

ur house along the Saranac is full of memories. Almost every drawer, cupboard and old button box is jampacked with photos, newspapers and family memorabilia. It pleases Kaye and me to be surrounded by what the late comedian George Carlin called “stuff.” We love our stuff.

While relaxing on our screened-in back deck last weekend, I noticed that Kaye was up to her usual busyness. She enjoys just sitting and watching river bank activity as much as I but at that moment, she was lifting the top of what I always

by Gordie Little thought of as an old wooden hope chest. It once had rattan covered sides, but that had long since fallen away. More recently, it simply occupied a corner of the room and was covered by a heavy cloth rug that had picked up pollen and other soil from the winter and spring.

She removed the rug and washed it, revealing the box or cedar chest or whatever you want to call it.

It sat for years, not thought of as anything except a place to sit. It was just there, out of mind.

Not this day. She fl ipped the lid and began pouring through the contents. Every object she pulled out was a treasure. It was like an archeological dig in a time capsule.

Photographs? There were many along with newspapers dating to who knows how many decades ago? One of them heralded the dedication of the “new” Bridge Street Bridge in Plattsburgh back in 1935. I uttered sounds of wonder and joy not necessarily becoming to a man of my advanced age. We had only recently re-dedicated the same bridge to veterans and fi lmed a complete television show culminating in the unveiling of an attractive sign at that location. Talk about reducing the span of years into a single moment.

Another was small-sized, complete copy of the very fi rst Life Magazine, published on November 23, 1936. Of course, I stopped to look at every photograph and read every word. I was especially interested in seeing the automobile and cigarette ads. The latter enjoined readers to smoke this or that brand because doctors touted them as being good for digestion. You were told to enjoy what we later called “cancer sticks” between every meal course. Amazing.

Kaye extracted stacks of report cards for every member of our family. Hers and mine were in the mix. Her high school diploma was there.

“It looks a little rough,” she said. “We look better than our diplomas,” I answered. She placed all the school-related items in separate piles to give to our kids for future safekeeping. As they drop by, she doles them out to each one. We shed tiny tears of joy while looking at handmade special occasion cards our kids made for us.

There was also a stapled booklet from Plattsburgh’s Broad Street School containing stories and poetry composed by several our children and their friends in 1967-68. It is entitled “Our Journey Through School” and was dedicated to beloved teacher Alice Moyer. I wonder how many copies are left.

There are so many items connected to my life that I now have my own stack. It’s like a child’s favorite blanket. I’ll keep it close and savor everything till the day I die. I’ve been reading stories and poems that I wrote in my early school grades and other things I typed on the old Royal machine in high school. There are letters to my dad from a couple colleges trying to tell him that his prodigal son wouldn’t be allowed to return the following year. I gave my parents so much grief.

As I began to write this, Kaye was inspired to go upstairs and carry down a 100-year-old wicker sewing basket full of old photos. What fun we had pawing through them. We promised ourselves to write names on the backs before our generation is no more. It’s already too late to identify some of them.

Perhaps you have a treasure chest in your attic and can soon share a similar experience. Let’s all sing “Memories.”

County Legislature From page 1

personally,” said Republican County Chairman Donald McBrayer, “and they’re the best candidates we could’ve found.”

BUSINESSMAN VS BUSINESSMAN Christopher Rosenquest and Steve Tahy are both seeking the Area 9 seat now held by John Gallagher, who is unable to run for re-election due to term limits.

If elected, Tahy, a Republican, would like to figure out ways to help keep youth in the area and figure out ways to secure more employment options for them.

“I’m concerned; there’s not a lot of great high paying jobs in this area,” Tahy said. “I would love to see my son stay here, but we need to have more opportunities for the younger people. Ò I can do that through county legislature.”

Tahy Tahy, who’s been active in real estate since 1984, is the owner of Tahy Real Estate Group, which opened in 2005 just before the downturn of the real estate market both locally and internationally.

A long time resident of Clinton County, Tahy attended both the Beekmantown and Plattsburgh City schools. He graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology with a BS in business administration.

Two years ago, Rosenquest ran for mayor as a no party candidate with Democrat Mark Tiffer and current mayor, Republican James Calnon. Now, he hopes to run for this seat under a demo-

www.northcountryman.com cratic ticket.

If elected, Rosenquest hopes to bring living wage jobs to the community by contributing more in terms of art, entertainment and culture in Plattsburgh, thus making the region more attractive for large scale employees to bring living wage jobs.

Rosenquest, since the election, has had the opportunity work closely with Rosenquest several community groups and businesses such as the Plattsburgh Downtown Association and the Plattsburgh Renewal Project, which brought an international film festival to Plattsburgh and will bring a new mural to downtown Plattsburgh.

Rosenquest currently is an advisor at the Small-Business Development Center, an adjunct professor of business at Clinton Community College and an adjunct professor of computer science at Plattsburgh. He, along with his wife, Tracy, also own Conroys organics, a store and café in Beekmantown.

“There’s certainly an opportunity as a county legislature to make a broader impact and if you look at the right person for the job, it takes more than just a handful of ideas to make a difference,” he said. “I’m a results driven person and you can see in just over the past few years I’ve been here the amount of results I’ve been able to produce.”

FOR THE COUNTY Democrat Carol Blakeslee-Collin of Keeseville and Republican Robbie Timmons will both run for the Area 7 seat, which has been held since 1998 by former Republican Legislative Chairman Jimmy Langley of Peru who can’t run again due to term limits.

Blakeslee-Collin, a semi-retired journalist who has lived in Kees-

Published by Denton Publications, Inc. eville for over 10 years, is currently concerned with high property taxes, the lack of economic growth and well-paying jobs in the area. If elected, she hopes to address all these issues and more.

“I can help create a better environment for economic growth and I would like to be able to do something to create a county where young people can find jobs and can afford to stay here,” Blakeslee-Collin said.

“I’ve been given a lot in life and now I can Blakeslee-Collin give back a bit.”

Before moving to Keeseville, BlakesleeCollin worked for the NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, ABC News, “20/20,” various PBS units, local news and as an independent documentary producer.

She grew up in a large family in Windham in the northern Catskills, graduated with a BA from Trinity College in Washington D.C. and has a graduate degree in education from SUNY Plattsburgh.

She’s currently an avid gardener, skier and president of the Board of Trustees at the Adirondack History Museum.

Son-in-law of state Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, Timmons is a former Town of Peru highway supervisor, volunteer firefighter with the Peru Volunteer Fire Department and small-business owner.

Timmons, if elected, plans to focus on maintaining where the county is at right now along with the growth of the airport.

“I’ have a pretty good background when it comes to government being with the town for so many years,” Timmons said. “I look forward to getting back into the public and helping; I’ve always felt right by helping the public.”

SCHUYLER FALLS CANDIDATES Democrat incumbent Peter Keenan will run again against Republican Rhonda Barber.

Keenan, a former Peru town justice who represents Schuyler Falls and part of Peru, was elected in 2013 and serves as the chairman of the county’s Human Services Committee.

Currently, he’s working on several projects with the county legislature, including terminal expansion at the airport.

The project is to make the terminal three times the size it is now for international flights since the amount of business has been much more than anticipated when the airport was origBarber inally opened and built.

“I would like to stay there until we complete it because I’m familiar with it and with any big project like that there are problems,” Keenan said. “I think I have done a good job working with the other legislatures and keeping the county on even field.”

Barber of Schuyler Falls, if elected, plans to run government like a business.

Barber would like to focus on making Clinton County a recreational destination to bring more families here and increase business in the area. Also, she would like to focus on recreation for local youth.

Most importantly, she would like to give Schuyler Falls more representation and fix a big issue in the town: landfill. Ò There needs to be somebody from Schuyler Falls on a legislature that is willing to deal with that issue and look out for what’s best in the town,” Barber said. “I want to run government like a business and it’s time for someone to get into office that can do that.”

Barber is the president of X-Plo/E-Z Sto, which offers retail sale in guns, ammunition and more. She attended Saranac Central School and graduated from Siena College with a Bachelor of Science in finance.

AREA 3 REELECTION Dairy Farmer incumbent Sam Dyer of Beekmantown will run again for the Area 3 seat. Dyer was first elected in 2012 and became chairman in 2014.

“He’s done an outstanding job as chair,” Mannix said. “That was a bit of a surprise when he was appointed to that position by members of the legislature, but he’s proven to be a very good leader on legislative issues.”

Republicans have yet to find a candidate for this seat.

CHAMPLAIN AND RP In the Northern Tier of Champlain and Rouses Point, Democrat incumbent Harry McManus of Rouses Point will be running again for the Area 1 Seat.

A former teacher at Northeastern Clinton Central School, McManus was first elected in 2008. He’s currently the chair of the county’s Transportation Committee and serves as the deputy chairman of the legislature, filling in for Dyer when he’s not available.

“He’s well educated and he does a very good job of understanding what the issues are before he makes any positions on them,” Mannix said. “He has proven to be a good secondary leader within the legislature.”

Republicans have yet to find a candidate for this seat.

OTHER COUNTY POSITIONS John Zurlo Sr., a Republican who lives on Point au Fer in Champlain, will run for county clerk once again that she’s been serving since winning the job in 1995.

Incumbent Democrat David Donah from Plattsburgh will also run again for county coroner, a position he’s held since 1995.

Democrats have yet to find a candidate for county clerk and Republicans have yet to find a candidate for county coroner.

The endorsed candidates must get 5 percent of voters registered in their parties in their districts to get on the ballot. Signatures can be obtained June 2 to July 9.

If non-endorsed candidates also get the required number of signatures, a primary election will be held Sept. 10.

Anyone interested in running for seats in Area 1, Area 3 and county coroner under a Republican ticket should contact McBrayer. Any Democrats interested in running for county clerk should contact Mannix.

NAC ends Ticonderoga’s 10-year reign as Class C champ Northern Adirondack 3, Ticonderoga 2; Bobcats go ahead in bottom of the seventh inning

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — In a case of role reversal, the Northern Adirondack Bobcats walked off with a win against the Ticonderoga Sentinels May 26, ending Ti’s 10-year run as the top team in Section VII Class C. A Kody Smith hit which grazed off the glove of fi rst baseman Ryan Trudeau allowed the winning run to cross the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning, after Stephen Peryea was intentionally walked to load the bases for a force play at every base.

“It was the right move because they had runners at second and third with two outs and it also happened their best hitter was coming to the plate,” Ticonderoga head coach Dan Dorsett said.

“I was confi dent we were going to get out of the inning and go into extras, and we had our pitching lined up for extra innings.”

Instead, the Sentinels lone error in the game led to the titleclinching run.

“I was a little surprised when they walked me,” Peryea, who had tied the game in the fi fth inning with a two-run single, said.

“Kody told me he wanted this and he was going to deliver for us.”

“I was surprised and I wanted redemption because they walked (Stephen) to get to me and I wanted to make them pay,” Smith said. “I got an outside fastball and stayed back on the ball and went to the opposite fi eld. I was running hard the whole way because I knew it would be a bang-bang play.”

After the ball hit off Trudeau’s glove, Dalton Granger, who made a spectacular catch in the fourth inning, was able to get to the ball and make a throw to pitcher Caleb Munson covering the bag, which was low and after the runner had touched fi rst base.

“I’m happy for our boys,” NAC coach Jeph Doorey said. “Any-

time you can beat a quality opponent like Ticonderoga it is a great win. There’s a reason they have been in that top seat for the past 10 years, they have great coaching and great players.”

The Sentinels took advantage of Bobcat errors in the top of the fi rst inning to get their two runs in the game.

After Domanic Banish led off the game with a walk, Bobcat pitcher Ethan King was able to catch Banish leaning off the bag in an attempted pickoff play. However, the throw from the fi rst baseman went into the outfi eld, and Banish was safe at second. One batter later, Ryan Trudeau hit a onehopper off the right center fi eld fence for a triple, scoring Banish. Trudeau would later score on a fi elding error off Northern Adirondack’s Ethan King earned the win on the mound for the Bobcats, who ended Ticonderoga’s the bat of Gavin Wells.

10-year run atop Class C. “They got those two unPhoto by Keith Lobdell earned runs and I thought theirs,” Dorsett said. “Trudeau pitched well for us but he was it was going to be a repeat of last year,” NAC winning pitcher having some trouble in the heat of the day (temperatures were Ethan King said. “We were able to play good defense from that near 90-degrees on the fi eld).” point on and I was able to locate my pitches.”

Banish pitched a scoreless sixth inning and was able to record “He got ahead of batters after the fi rst inning and found a the fi rst out of the seventh between Bobcat base hits. Munson good curve and a good mixture of pitches,” Doorey said. was able to get the second out of the inning on a grounder to Trudeau was able to hold the Bobcat bats in check until the Trudeau before the fi nal play of the game. fi fth inning, when he gave up a lead-off single and walked a pair “I hate to lose for these seniors,” Dorsett said. “They have of batters with two outs before surrendering the hit to Peryea in worked hard for the past four years and it does not go unapwhat was his fi nal inning of work. preciated.”
