Mooers exploring speed limit reduction

Officials discussing different ways to decrease traffic speed, passing on Hemmingford Road

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

MOOERS — Town officials are looking into ways to reduce the speed limit on Hemmingford Road.

Councilman Donald Perras said he’s witnessed speeding and an increase in cars passing each other across the doublelined road.

The approximate 3-mile long road currently has three speed limits — 30 from the connection to Main Street to the

Mooers Elementary School Playground, 45 from there to the end of residential homes and 55 the rest of the way to the Canadian border.

Perras would like the 45 speed limit reduced to 30 because of safety concerns for residents.

“I don’t know what’s going on or what’s causing this influx, but it’s getting bad,” the councilman said at the most recent town board meeting. “Surprisingly and thankfully no accidents have occurred, but I’ve seen a lot of close calls.”

Hemmingford Road connects with Main Street, School Street, North Star, Orr Road, Depot Street and Maple Street and is also in close proximity with Mooers Wesleyan Church and St. Joseph’s Church. >> See Hemmingford Road | pg. 12

Ellenburg voters to decide future term lengths

New signs recognizes donors of project, more improvements in the works, says officials

CHAMPLAIN — Village officials are getting closer to putting up the new sign for the community-funded Champlain Playground.

The large-green token of gratitude with gold-colored lettering was purchased five Teah months ago for $500, using funds from Dowling several donors, both local businesses and Writer private citizens.

These donors contributed $5,000 to construct the playground, constructed on a vacant lot across the road from the Champlain Meeting House on Route 9.

Village officials decided to convert the land to a community gathering area following the closure of the Champlain Elementary School in 2003, which provided residents with an athletic field and a playground. St. Mary’s Church noticed a lack of people in their playground and donated their equipment to the village.

The leftover blacktop from a torn down building was repurposed for a basketball court for the warmer months and an ice skating rink for the colder months.

A number of programs and events, such as the reading program and Longest Day of Play, are held there, utilizing the recently added pavilion and adult workout equipment.

Town officials are looking into ways to reduce the speed limit on Hemmingford Road. No final decision was made during the last town board meeting, but a resolution may be brought up during the next town meeting on Sept. 13 to conduct a study through the Department of Transportation.

Town board approves ballot question to extend supervisor, clerk and highway superintendent positions A mother and her child play on one of the unique pieces of playground equipment the Champlain Playground has to offer. Village officials have been contemplating more ways to improve the site, including the addition of a horseshoe pit, a permanent volleyball net and more landscaping.

“It’s been a great addition to the village,” said Mayor Greg Martin. “And it’s been very popular.”

Village officials have been contemplating more ways to improve the site, including the addition of horseshoe pit, a permanent volleyball net and more landscaping.

Discussions have also taken place to incorporate a walking trail around the perimeter.

“We’re trying to create opportunities for physical activity around the village,” said Village Trustee Janet McFetridge.

Financial donors include Valero’s, St. Mary’s Mission, Financial Tally, Stewart’s Shops, Charles Wood Foundation,

ELLENBURG — Town voters will go to the polls to decide term lengths for their elected officials.

On Aug. 17, the town board voted unanimously to put a question on the ballot asking voters to extend the current term lengths of supervisor, highway superintendent and clerk from two to four years.

If approved during the November election, the change would go into effect in January 2018, when the three positions would expire.

The town held a public hearing before the meeting to gather public input.

Supervisor Jason Dezan brought up the change to the board for initial consideration months ago.

Doing so would save money for both the town and the person running, the supervisor said.

“It’s very expensive to campaign,” he said. “Creating longer

OrientalÊ ShrineÊ CircusÊ comingÊ toÊ Plattsburgh

Traveling entertainment finds venue after being turned down by the city

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

MORRISONVILLE — It’s official: The Oriental Shrine Circus is coming to town.

The Oriental Shriners — a group dedicated to helping children — is set to set up stakes with Circus Hollywood Sept. 9 and 10 at the Clinton County Fairgrounds.

The Troy-based organization had initially eyed the Crete Civic Center last month, but the Plattsburgh City Council nixed the request, citing their usage of captive animals.

“I don’t know what kind of a circus it would’ve been without any animals,” said Linda Trassacco, a Shriner representative. “But we tried to satisfy their wishes.”

While the circus offered to pull the animals from the event, city officials held firm, saying they wouldn’t support any ven-

ue that uses animals for entertainment, present or not. The council then passed a resolution banning the use of city facilities for captive-animal performances.

“Animals shouldn’t be used for entertainment purposes,” Councilwoman Becky Kasper said. “It’s unethical.”

The Trassaccos vowed that the circus’ the Oriental Shriner’s hire do not mistreat their animals, stating they’re properly groomed and well-fed.

“They’re not cruel,” Linda said. “You can see it.”

Despite the accusations, the Oriental Shriners didn’t give up and found another circus and venue within weeks.

“We were able to book a larger and better circus,” said Barry Trassacco, circus chairman. “Everyone should come out and enjoy.”

In addition to the usual trappings — clowns, caged motorcycle racing and the trapeze — the “world’s smallest pig” will be on site, along with several other critters in the petting zoo.

“The Oriental Shriners have been doing circus’ for 50 years,” said Barry. “They’re always a lot of fun.”

Pictured right: The Oriental Shrine Circus will take place Sept. 9 and 10 at the Clinton County Fairgrounds. There will be two shows each day. In addition to the usual trappings — clowns, caged motorcycle racing and the trapeze — the “world’s smallest pig” will be on site. There will also be a petting zoo.

The Oriental Shrine Circus, presented by Circus Hollywood, will take place Sept. 9 and Sept. 10 at the Clinton County Fairgrounds. There will be two showtimes on Friday at 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. and two showtimes on Saturday at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Tickets cost $15 for adults and $5 for children. Box seats ringside cost $25. Children under 10 with an adult are free. The doors will open one hour before showtime. For more information, call 518-480-3982.

Devi Momot seeking Area 4 seat

Candidate to fight for more good-quality jobs, bringing more businesses into the area

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — Devi Momot officially announced her candidacy for the Clinton County Board of Legislators Area 4 seat on Tuesday.

Momot, who is unaffiliated with a political party, said her experience as the CEO of Twinstate Technologies and serving on a number of community groups makes her a good fit for the position.

“I’m very committed to doing

things right,” she said. “I love the area, and I see a lot of potential for future growth.”

Momot said if elected, she intends to fight for more good-quality jobs by nurturing existing businesses and working hand in hand with the county and organizations like The Development Corporation and North Country Chamber of Commerce to bring in more advanced manufacturing institutes and new businesses.

Along with more jobs, Momot would like to see an increase educational opportunities for persons seeking employment, like the Advanced Manufacturing Institute at Clinton Community College.

More employment options, she said, could mean a potential increase in population. By bringing in both, that could help alleviate the tax burden currently facing not only the county, but the state.

Making Clinton County a more attractive place to live, Momot said, is another way to drive people into the area.

Earlier this summer, the state awarded $10 million to the city to

revitalize its downtown.

The project, which is still in its preliminary stages, could possibly create a new city center, recreational opportunities and waterfront access for residents.

New businesses, apartment complexes and people could flood to the city due to this dramatic change.

Momot hopes the county can play an effort by assisting in finding more funding toward the overall vision.

“We can all benefit from a revived and lively downtown,” she said. “We need to make sure to keep that progress going.”

FILLING SHOES This race is to fill the final year of Colin Read’s four-year term, which expires in 2017.

The seat was left vacant by Read to run for mayor against incumbent Mayor James Calnon.

Sara Rowden, who served as the Area 4 legislator from 2001 to 2014, offered to serve for six months on an interim basis until the special

election in November.

“I find Sarah to be an exceptional leader and I believe she’s done a phenomenal job,” Momot said. “I hope to bring a lot of the same traits and openness if I’m elected.”

Clinton County Republican Committee Chairman Donald McBrayer, who endorsed Momot in March, believes she can.

“We felt she was the best to serve the position,” he said. “She really is the perfect candidate.”

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY Momot’s current opponents are Simon Conroy and George Dyer, who are subject to a Democratic Primary Sept. 13.

The Clinton County Democratic Committee endorsed Dyer, a former state trooper, on June 9.

Conroy, event organizer and former operator of an organic food co-op, decided to run in light of the 3-1 vote.

The winner will face Momot in this November’s general election.

‘BEST WISHES’ Conroy, who referred to Momot as a friend, wished her the best of luck with her campaign but expressed his belief in him being best suited for the position.

“People want an active legislator and representative to go above and beyond,” he said. “And I believe I fit that description.”

Dyer said although he hasn’t met Momot yet, he believes they’ll be “very formidable opponents.”

McBrayer has full confidence in Momot taking the victory.

“I think Devi’s got them both beat multiple times over with her qualifications,” he said.

Momot is looking forward to seeing the final outcome in November.

“I think this is going to be a very interesting and lively election,” she said.

O

ne can never put a value on a heartfelt “thank you.” They make up a significant portion of the communicated words we use each day, many times passing our lips as an automatic response from one human to another.

A more formal “thank you” by card or letter requires greater thought and effort to produce and distribute.

They also are associated with some form of cost.

For many years, The SUN has published and distributed thousands of letters to thousands of homes from grateful organizations and community members at no charge to either the writer nor the recipient.

No other method exists to reach so many without some cost by either party.

Sadly, we must announce a change in our policy for accepting these types of letters.

The ever-escalating cost of publishing a free community newspaper, mailed to every home in 85 unique zip codes, regretfully requires us alter this practice.

Effective immediately, thank you letters appearing in The SUN will need to run as “Cards of Thanks” and will be channeled through our advertising department at deeply discounted rates.

Thank you letters will no longer be accepted as a Letter to the Editor.

Those letters will now be reserved for issue-oriented commentary to aid in the flow of free speech and the open exchange of ideas.

It is never easy to change longstanding practices and we do not make these decisions without considerable thought and discussion.

The SUN has a longstanding history of supporting many good causes and organizations throughout the region, which we will continue to do whenever possible.

We understand the value of giving freely of our time and talent to assist those in need. But in the case of most thank you letters, they serve to promote their organization, the raising of funds and their supporters for commercial value.

Our only form of income to support our publishing efforts and staff is the distribution of commercial information.

As these letters get longer and more detailed, they take up more space and require more effort to produce. It’s >> Story Continued this page

GUEST VIEWPOINT

Teaching the young how to vote

By Tom Purcell “Son, you’re 18 now. As an American citizen that means you’ll vote for the first time in the upcoming election.”

“Gee, dad, I can’t wait to do my civic duty. How do you suggest I prepare?”

“Well, son, a good place to start is to re-read the American Constitution to understand the basic principles upon which our country was founded.”

“It’s been a while since I read it in school, dad.”

“Son, the Constitution is the highest law of the land. All new laws in our country originate from it or should. However, not all politicians buy into the Constitution. Some think it is old and outmoded.”

“Outmoded, dad?”

“The Constitution establishes a framework for how our government functions. It establishes a system of checks and balances, so that none of our three branches of government ---- the legislative, executive and judicial ---- can become too powerful. Some politicians hate having such limitations placed upon them, however. They want to do as they please with the taxpayers’ money or impose laws on citizens without following the constitutional process. So you’ll want to know their position on the Constitution before you vote.”

“OK, dad, I’ll re-read the Constitution and be sure to research what each candidate thinks about it. What else should I do before I vote?”

“You’ll also want to study the Bill of Rights, son. The bill represents 10 amendments to the Constitution designed to protect the civil liberties of individuals. For instance, the First Amendment protects the freedom of speech, religion, assembly, the right to petition the government and freedom of the press.”

“I remember learning in civics class that a free, objective press is essential to the survival of our republic.”

“Which is a worrisome thing, son, when you see how in the tank the major media are for one presidential candidate over the other. You’ll also want to read the 17 other amendments. The 16th Amendment, for instance, was passed into law in 1913. It created the federal income tax.”

“I’m already very familiar with that painful amendment, dad. What else can I do?”

“Well, son, it’s important to study the issues. There’s lots of disagreement in America and how to move the country forward. Some people think our gov-

Thank you policy From this page

one thing to say thank you to all who supported our cause, but something entirely different to thank every supporter, contest winner, announce upcoming events and apologize for missing anyone (which in most cases is The SUN, which gets no recognition for printing the thank you letter itself).

The last line is not meant to be sour grapes. The point I’m trying to make is that all too often, The SUN’s free service is taken for granted and that everything we do should be free.

No organization will last long if the value of the service they provide is not supported in a monetary fashion by those who recognize the value. It can’t always be someone else who does the supporting.

A

ernment is too big and isn’t following the limited-government spirit of our Constitution. However, other people think the government should double down and spend lots more.”

“More, dad?”

“Yes, some people think ‘the rich’ aren’t paying their fair share. They think we can impose massive tax increases on them and redistribute the money to others who don’t have as much. But others think that would create a huge negative economic backlash that would end up hurting everyone, in particular the poorest among us.”

“So you want me to study the political promises each candidate makes and then vote for the best person, dad?”

“Yes, son, but that takes time and effort and too few voters are willing to do any due diligence on the candidates. Since many people get their information from the mass media, candidates who raise the most money to pay for the most negative advertising are often able to sway poorly informed voters.”

“That’s disturbing, dad.”

“It surely is, son. A thoughtful, well-informed public is the heart and soul of a thriving republic. In my opinion, the candidates who best embrace our country’s founding principles will be best able to tackle the incredible challenges we face ---- debt, spending, government bureaucracy, a flat economy.

Regrettably, however, few people think as I do.”

“Maybe so, dad, but you offer sound advice. I promise to be as well-informed as I can before I pull a voting lever on Election Day.” Tom Purcell, author of �Misadventures of a 1970�s Childhood� and �Wicked Is the Whiskey,� a Sean McClanahan mystery novel, both available at Amazon. com, is a Pittsburgh Tribune-Review humor columnist and is nationally syndicated exclusively by Cagle Cartoons Inc.

Providing a community newspaper with good quality content, delivered free to every residential home in 85 zip codes, is not a cheap service. Retaining our staff and purchasing the supplies and equipment required to perform this task each week costs approximately $85,000. Many weeks, especially in the winter, we don’t always cover those costs.

It could be considered a high-wire act that we perform each week. If we give too much away, it causes those who support our efforts to question why.

But at the same time, we believe our free distribution method is the future for newspapers that will survive to serve the entire community for years to come.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

ENDORSEMENT POLICY

s we approach the upcoming election season we want to make an important distinction regarding candidate endorsements. With a free distribution in excess of 60,000 homes, our papers are inundated every election cycle with candidate endorsements. The only source of revenue our community publications receive to offset the cost of print, delivery and overhead is paid notices and advertisements. All candidate endorsements must now run either in the form of an advertisement or a paid endorsement notice and include the name of the individual making the en-

dorsement. The paid endorsement notice can be purchased in three sizes — a quick 50 words or less for $15; a 51-175 word endorsement for $50 or a 176-300 word endorsement for $75.

A paid advertisement will be based on standard advertising rates taking into consideration size and frequency according to the current rate card at the open advertising rate. For rates call Ashley at 873-6368 ext 105 or email ashley@denpubs.com.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

COMMENTARY

WhenÊ youÊ seeÊ anÊ AmericanÊ IraqÊ warÊ veteran...

To the Editor: This is for all the Hillary haters to read when you talk about lying.

When you see an American Iraq war veteran with one leg, think about who lied to cause him to lose his leg.

When you see an American Iraq war veteran with no legs, think of who lied to cause him to lose both legs.

When you see an American Iraq war veteran with one arm, think of who lied that caused him to lose his arm.

When you see an American Iraq war veteran with no arms, think of who caused him to lose both arms.

When you see an American Iraq war veteran who is blind, think of who lied to cause him to lose his vision.

When you see an American Iraq war veteran who doesn’t know where he is or who he is, think about who lied that caused him to lose his mind.

When you see all the American Iraq war veteran in hospitals today, think about who caused them to be in those hospitals.

I think about it all the time whenever I see any of our American Iraq veterans. I think about it all the time, who could have been responsible for all these ruined lives? How could anyone have lied to do such a horrendous thing, who?

Then the answer came to me: George Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Condoleeza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Richard Perle, William Kristol, George Tenet, all Republicans.

These people who lied and are responsible for thousands of deaths, injuries, trillions of dollars of debt and setting the Middle East on fire in which there seems to be no end in sight.

AppalledÊ byÊ racistÊ incidents To the Editor: After reading the article by Pete DeMola [“Diversity group tackles tough questions,” The Sun, Aug. 20 edition], I was appalled about his report of Alvin Codner visiting a Lake George establishment.

It doesn’t matter if you’re an African American or a member of any other race. You should not be treated with such disrespect by any business that is here to serve the customer. The Ticonderoga Walmart is just as bad.

When I was growing up, my father always respected anyone he met. His advice was to remember each one of us has a soul and to treat everyone with respect. We all have some DNA from other countries. Let’s always remember to treat all people as brothers.

TrumpÊ aÊ Ô falseÊ prophetÊ thatÊ spoutsÊ hateÕ To the Editor: In my almost 75 years, I have lived through the elections of 12 presidents.

And never have I seen such filth being peddled by Trump and his supporters.

Many of them call themselves Christians, and there are even so-called “Christian leaders” carrying the Trump banner. One has to wonder what Bible they are reading and who they are professing to follow!

The filth thrown out by Trump at rallies where his followers bring their children is language not heard in sleazy bar rooms. The lesson they are giving their children is that cursing and telling untruths is what our country is all about. Four-letter words pour from Trump’s mouth and any hint of morals are thrown aside. I have to wonder how so-called Christian leader Franklin Graham could possibly give Trump backing when he shows no Christian values. Perhaps Rev. Graham is what the Bible calls a “False Prophet!”

In point of fact, Trump falls into the same category as a false prophet when he spouts out his hate and flip-flops every time the wind changes direction.

His dishonoring of a family that lost a son fighting for our freedoms is a slap in the face to every man and woman who has worn a uniform. As a draft dodger and a coward, he should stop beating the drums of war and go back to his golf club where is thought a hero by his underlings!

Unfortunately we have to wait until Election Day to be rid of this stain on our political process and our country!

In the mean time his supporters can enjoy their outsourced Trump products that are putting Americans out of work. There is a good chance Trump may have “Made in China” stamped on his heel!

HUDÊ programÊ Ô didÊ nothingÕ Ê forÊ apartmentÊ withÊ blackÊ mold To the Editor: HUD Program, Housing for Underdeveloped: this program helps people with rental assistance.

The last apartment I lived in was in Port Henry, NY. For two years I put up with black mold, lead paint and ceilings falling in.

HUD did nothing until Public Health moved me out of there.

Now, I’ve moved to Elizabethtown, NY. I have roaches and mice in an apartment HUD recommended to me. It was never inspected before I moved in.

My caretaker just kept getting sprays, and whatnot, from the store. Then, he was forced to spray. Just my apartment. HUD employee did nothing.

I, Laurie Rafferty, tenant, have contacted the health department. I spoke to the man once on the phone, he said the problem would be taken care of.

Now, he will not even return my calls.

The HUD employee stated I was in danger of losing my assistance. Except I still have a caseworker through Public Health. A home health care person out of Plattsburgh. And a mental health worker drops into my home.

The neighbor next door stated the roaches were in the apartment when I moved in, to the caretaker.

I am not allowed to move, due to HUD. And if I just keep quiet then I can keep my HUD and not be homeless. That’s the way the HUD program works in Essex County.

Laurie Rafferty Elizabethtown

ThankÊ youÊ forÊ yourÊ service To the Editor: I find responding to Joe’s attack regarding Trump’s Lie’s in your Sept. 3rd edition difficult.

I was raised to respect my elders and always offer a helping hand to them if they were in need, and have respect and gratitude for every veteran that served our country. These values are inherent in my D&A. So learning that Joe is a WWII veteran presents a difficult challenge to me.

Joe, thanks for your service and protecting our way of life, men like you and my father severed with distinction and honor for the duration of WWII. Take note my father was a Democrat but I guarantee you if he were alive today he would be supporting Trump, protecting us from both the socialists and communists that have infiltrated the Democratic party and would continue the destruction started by B. H. Obama.

As for your incoherent and rambling messages I charge them off to your age.

Due to respect for the Sun’s policy as to the length of articles I will not respond to the numerous and false accusations.

Trump on Immigration Speech sounds good, but rings hollow

Christine Flowers Columnist

A

s an immigration lawyer, I approached Donald Trump’s speech last Wednesday night with anticipation, hope and trepidation.

I was willing to keep an open mind about a topic that, next to abortion rights and religious freedom, is the most important issue for me in this campaign. I was prepared to praise the man if he came out with an honest, workable, non-tweetable attempt to address the extremely complicated factors that go into the whole concept of “illegal immigration.”

To say I was disappointed is an understatement along the level of “Houston, we have a problem.”

I listened politely as Trump spoke about building his wall, and understood that this was an appealing concept to many - including myself - who are troubled by the fluidity of our borders. As he discussed the modalities that would be used to build that wall, evoking technologies apparently not yet in existence, I realized that his use of this concept was much more symbolic than anything else.

“Build a wall” has been an effective slogan over the years, and it doesn’t require much cerebral heavy lifting.

Trump sounded more poetic than Maya Angelou: “On Day 1, we will begin working on an impenetrable, physical, tall, powerful, beautiful Southern border wall.” He talked about “above- and below-ground sensors” which other people call “tunnels.” He talked about aerial surveillance, towers and additional manpower.

He also said Mexico would pay for the wall, even though the Mexican president made it clear that Mexico “no paga.” So the estimated $8 to $12 billion needed to build this “beautiful Southern border wall” will have to come from somewhere.

Then Trump announced the revolutionary concept that he would change enforcement priorities by “removing criminals, gang members, security threats, visa overstays, (and) public charges.”

I stood up and gave him a standing ovation when I heard that. But I gave President Obama that same standing ovation when he announced those same priorities in November 2014. Yawn.

Trump then talked about screening refugees, and no one who has seen the brutality wreaked by ISIS and other Islamic terror groups should object to that.

But, as experts have noted, refugees generally undergo the most rigorous and time-consuming process of any category of immigrants. Sometimes the process can take up to 18 months, or more. So again, nothing new.

The suggestion that illegal aliens must be kept out of the country because they have an innate tendency to be more violent and homicidal than the average native-born American is wrong.

Debatable, but still wrong. It’s an argument we can have; I’m fine with that.

My problem is using death to make your partisan point.

“My boy was shot by a cop.

They’re bigoted monsters.”

“My boy was killed by an illegal.

They’re homicidal maniacs.”

Same tune, different verses.

Lady Eagles seek fifth sectionals with new coach

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

CHAZY — The defending Section VII/Class D champion Chazy varsity girl’s soccer program will enter a new year with a new coach, as Samantha Signor moves from the AuSable Valley JV bench to take over one of the glamour programs in the section.

Signor said she feels this is a “perfect season,” for her to join the team.

“Kicking off this season as the new girls varsity coach, I look forward to all that Chazy Soccer has to offer,” Signor said. “My main expectation for this season is to simply be competitive, a force to reckon with. I have the utmost confidence in my veterans, each being very strong and well rounded players.”

The Lady Eagles return plenty of experience to the field, led by seniors Jess Barcomb, Bailey Pepper, Conner LaPierre, Taylor Lauren and Lily Hayes, along with a junior core which includes Natalie Pombrio and Lindsey Gilmore.

“Going into this season with five seniors, who will be my core group on the field, I will also be looking toward my newcomers to be solid feet on the playing ground,” Signor said. “I have a very experienced group of girls, communication is strong along with the will to give everything they have and leave it all on the field.”

CHAZY — The Eagles varsity boys soccer program wants to go back to where they usually are — the state championship game.

After falling in the Section VII/Class D semifinals to Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport last season, the Eagles return a solid core of experienced players as they look to reclaim the Class D title, both sectional and state.

“Our goal is to be in contention for the league and sectional titles,” said head coach Rob McAuliffe, who has said in the past the goal is always to make it to Middeltown and the state final four.

Gage Ducatte and Kade Collines will lead the Eagles as senior captains in 2016. A pair of juniors in sweeper Nathan Trombly and forward Josh McCauley will anchor each side of the field, while sophomore Tristan Conners has scored a goal in each of the Eagles’ opening two games.

LadyÊ BobcatsÊ lookingÊ forÊ repeatÊ inÊ ClassÊ C

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

ELLENBURG — The Northern Adirondack varsity girl’s soccer program will seek to win another Class C sectional title, trying for three years with three different coaches.

“This is a great group of girls who all listen and we all know each other since we are from the same small town,” said head coach Emily Lashway, who replaces current Plattsburgh State Cardinal Cammey Keyser on the sidelines.

Lashway said the team has a solid core of returning players, which starts with a solid defensive unit.

“My goalie (Paige Chilton) is solid and we have a lot of confidence in her,” Lashway said.

“We also return a full defense. We also have three fast players up top on the offense.”

Lashway said the key she wants to focus on for the season is keeping control when the team has the ball.

“Ball movement is something we need to work on throughout the season and aggression onto the ball,” she said.

ELLENBURG — The Northern Adirondack varsity boys soccer team battled through 80 minutes to earn a draw in regulation of the Section VII/Class D title game last season, before falling in overtime to the Griffins.

This year, they hope to return to the same game and make their way past whoever they oppose and into state play.

“We will be looking to build upon last year’s performance,” head coach Damen Nevader said. “We hope to push for the Division II title (which they won last season) and have a chance at the Section VII Class D title. “ While the team lost several members to graduation, Nevader feels the Bobcats still have a strong core of talent.

“We have brought back a core group of players that are motivated to do well,” he said. “Several newcomers will need to step up in order for us to be successful.”

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

CHAMPLAIN — The Northeastern Clinton boy’s varsity soccer program will look to return to the top of the Division I and Section VII Class B standings with a solid core of senior leadership.

“Our goals are to win the division and sectionals,” head coach Dale Hawksby said. “We have 11 seniors with varsity experience, so I’m looking for them to be team leaders in order to accomplishing our goals.”

Behind the core of seniors will be 11 juniors, who will be seeking their chances to move into the rotation as they become more accustomed to the varsity level of play.

“The underclassmen will have to adjust quickly at playing at a higher level,” Hawksby said. “The team has been working hard and the Cougars should be challenging for the top spot in the division.”

terms would cut costs and help both sides of the court.”

Dezan ran against former supervisor David Leonard during last year’s election, in which he spent close to $800 for campaigning.

Although Dezan won the race, he said burnt a hole in his pocket.

The supervisor plans on re-running again this year with high hopes of not only winning, but also saving funds.

Another reason as to why Dezan brought up the idea to the board because all of the council members, along with the town justice and assessor, have four year terms.

If approved, the last two-year position in the town will be for tax collector.

Ellenburg is one of the few municipalities within Clinton County to still have two-year terms.

Every position within the towns of Plattsburgh, Peru, Dannemora, Chazy, Champlain, Altona, Ausable, Beekmantown and Black Brook, along with Clinton County, are four years long.

Schuyler Falls and Mooers have only one two-year term, which is the town supervisor.

The towns of Clinton and Saranac, along with the City of Plattsburgh, differentiate in their term lengths from two to four years.

Secretary Bethany Fortin and Highway Superintendent Brad Wright were not immediately available for comment by the time this story went to print on Tuesday.

PLATTSBURGH — The Clinton County Board of Elections is looking for people to become poll workers. Poll workers will be required to attend a two hour training session, which pays $25. The rate of pay for working is: $110 for the Primary Election and $150 for the General Election. You may be enrolled in any party, says Deputy Commissioner Brandi Lloyd, but don’t need to be in party to become a worker. For more information, call the office at 565-4740 between the hours of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. The first training session will begin in October.

Plattsburgh man arrested for aggravated DWI BEEKMANTOWN — Andre P. Doyle, 35, was arrested for driving with a BAC of .18 or higher, more than .10 over the legal limit.

Clinton County sheriffs charged Doyle with failing to keep right, an infraction, driving while intoxicated, a misdomeanor and aggrevated DWI, a misdomeanor.

Doyle was transported to the sheriff ’s office and released on appearance tickets.

Doyle is scheduled to appear at the Town of Beekmantown Court at a later date.

Hemmingford Road << Continued from | p. 1

Most of the street is inhabited by residential homes filled with families — almost 10 young children, Perras said, live within the 45-mile per hour stretch.

“There’s a lot of kids on that road and it’s not safe,” he said. “I’m hoping we can do something to prevent anything horrible from happening.”

Perras asked his fellow board members to consider doing a study through the Department of Transportation.

The study, according to the DOT, would look into different factors, such as traffic volume, traveling speeds, highway geometry, roadside development, accident history and input from the state police.

Supervisor Jeff Menard said he was skeptical that the DOT would grant the reduction. The agency, he noted, turned down reductions for Main Street in Rouses Point and Jabez Allen Road in Peru earlier this summer.

If the study doesn’t happen or deems unsuccessful, Perras also suggested putting up “no passing” signs.

No final decision was made during the meeting.

Perras is hopeful a resolution will be brought up during the next town meeting Sept. 13.

CHAZY — Two games versus teams who have been to the state finals in the past two years, including the defending Class B champion.

No problem for the preeminent power of Section VII soccer.

The Chazy Eagles boys varsity soccer program scored 2-0 wins over defending champ Plattsburgh High and 2015 finalist Beekmantown to claim the Frankie Garrow Memorial Tournament title on their home turf of George Brendler Field Aug. 31 and Sept. 2, respectively.

“It shows us we are playing at a state championship level,” said sweeper Nathan Trombly, the anchor of a defense who did not allow a goal over the first 160 minutes of the season. “We have a lot of returning starters along with new people who can step up when needed. When people see the results from this tournament, they will see we are pretty good this year.”

“These were two quality wins against two very good teams,” head coach Rob McAuliffe said. “It gives us a shot of confidence going into the regular season. We have some quality kids in the back and we are very organized defensively and try to limit the opponents opportunities.”

Both Josh McCauley and Tristan Conners scored in each game for the Eagles.

“At the beginning of the season, we have been pushing our-

selves and putting in the extra work, so results like this show the team it is going to pay off,” McCauley said. “Tristan and I have been working well up top, but we have to keep talking as a team and making the most of our chances.”

“This gives us a good confidence boost for the regular season,” Conners said. “We want to continue to keep making plays and to find feet.”

Beekmantown, the runner up, and PHS both finished the tournament with 1-1 records, as PHS won the consolation game.

Up next for the Eagles will be another game against a state tournament-tested team, as they will travel to Camp Dudley to take on the Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport Griffins, the defending Class D sectional champions, Sept. 8.

“We like to look at each game the same way,” McCauley said.

“We want to go in with our heads high and put in the effort we need to come out with a win.”

“We know them,” McAuliffe said. “They had a great year and they have a great program that is very well coached by Paul (Buehler) and has quality players. We are happy about these wins, but now the focus is Thursday.”

For Trombly, the goal is for he and his defense to try and limit reigning Division II MVP Joel Morris.

“We have to keep tabs on him and close when he has the ball,” Trombly said.

he fall 2016 sports season is well underway, and we could not be happier!

Last week brought a number of preseason tournaments, from the Be The Match Fall Classic and Frankie Garrow Memorial tournaments at Chazy to the Pizza Hut Shootout at Northeastern Clinton and the Saranac tournament.

At these tournaments, there may have been some early indications how things will go in the soccer world this season.

1. Chazy boys are back: They didn’t go away, but a loss in the sectional Class D semifinals is not a successful year in the eyes of this program. Heck, a loss in the Class D state finals isn’t either for the seven time state champs. However, after defeating two state-caliber squads in Plattsburgh High School (defending Class B state champ) and Beekmantown (2015 state finalist in Class B), both in shutout fashion, the Eagles looked poised to make another run in what again will be a deep Section VII/Class D field.

The Eagles are not done, yet, with their tour of state finalists, as they face the Griffins this Thursday at Camp Dudley.

4. Beekmantown Lady Eagles starting strong: The regional finalists from one year ago have their sights set on higher goals, and they are being led by a young lady who can score in cleats or on skates in Kirsten Villemaire.

Villemaire tallied three goals to go with three assists in her first two games of 2016 as the Eagles won the Chazy Fall Classic last week. Beekmantown now opens the regular season with a pair of home games against Peru (Wednesday, Sept. 7) and Northeastern Clinton (Friday, Sept. 9), with a road trip to AuSable Valley looming to start the new week Sept. 12.

5. There�s no place like home: In the opening week of the CVAC football season, the home team was a perfect 4-0 — see above, we’re including Ticonderoga in this — as Plattsburgh High, the afore mentions Sentinels, Saranac Lake and Peru all won on scheduled as the team in the non-white uniforms.

LadyÊ CougarsÊ lookingÊ atÊ newÊ facesÊ toÊ stepÊ up

CHAMPLAIN — The Northeastern Clinton varsity girls soccer program will seek to sure up several positions on the field as they begin the 2016 Division I regular season.

“We have some question marks this season as we lost 10 seniors from last year,” said head coach Tim Suprenant. “We have had a chance to answer some of those in preseason and our newcomers have played well. Some of what we have to figure out is who is going to take on leadership roles.”

Suprenant said the team has a chance to be strong offensively.

“Our halfbacks and strikers up front and worked very well together and we expect big things out of them throughout the season,” he said. “Our defense will be a key, as we lost three of the four members to graduation and the other may be playing a new position, so it will come down to finding the correct combo who can perform the way we need.”

Poll shows Jones with early lead in Assembly race Mulverhill dismisses survey as “publicity stunt”

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — A new poll in the New York State 115th District Assembly race shows Billy Jones with an early lead over Kevin Mulverhill.

The poll of 400 district voters shows Jones, a Democrat, leading Republican Mulverhill 47 to 38 percent, with 15 percent undecided.

Jones declined to comment on the results.

“The only poll I’m concerned with is the poll on Election Day,” said Jones, chairman of the Franklin County Legislature.

Mulverhill, the Franklin County Sheriff, said he was undeterred by the results and blasted the survey for what he said was a lack of specificity.

“There was no questions on the issues, and no determination why they answered the survey the way they did,” Mulverhill said. “No indications of what part of the 115th this was in.

The questions are general and not specific at all.”

The survey was conducted by Kiley & Company.

A spokesman for the Jones campaign declined to confirm the genesis of the poll conducted by the Rhode Island-based firm.

“We’re having a difficult time to figure out who paid for the poll,” Mulverhill said. “It almost looks like a publicity stunt.”

Thirty-eight percent of respondents said they were Democrat; 33 percent, Republican, and 20 percent counted themselves as independent or unenrolled.

Both campaigns said they looked forward to the final eightweek stretch before voters head to the polls.

“We’re working hard, spitting out a good positive message and going around talking to many people in the district about what matters to them the most,” Jones said.

Mulverhill said his campaign will ramp up door-to-door outreach operations following Labor Day. “The indication on the trail is that we’re doing very well,” Mulverhill said. “Those people have a lot to say and we’re going to listen — and do more listening than talking.”

The poll comes on the heels of a court decision that may have political implications for the race.

Former Franklin County Undersheriff Patrick White last month plead guilty to three violations for his role in an operation that saw deputies allegedly following county legislators to public places to reportedly “harass, annoy and alarm” them.

A former deputy said he was ordered to target legislators who questioned funding for the department. But the sheriff had said the surveillance stemmed from complaints that the legislators were driving while intoxicated.

White was fined and sentenced to a conditional discharge.

Mulverhill, who has said he had no knowledge of the incident, said he stands by the department — and understands why White took the deal.

“I’m a little disappointed because a trial would have brought all the facts out,” Mulverhill said. “The county spent a lot of money to end up with basically three violations — I don’t think it was worth it for taxpayers.”

Jones declined to comment on the case.

The two candidates are vying to replace incumbent Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, who announced in March her retirement from the seat she has held since 2007.

Duprey, a Republican from Peru, has endorsed Mulverhill.

Zakarauskas and Prenoveau duke it out at Rouses Point Civic Center, Sept. 10 ROUSES POINT — Battle at the Border 2 will take place Sept. 10 at 7 p.m. at the Rouses Point Civic Center. Steve Zakarauskas will be going up against Nick Prenoveau for the MMA title. General tickets cost $30. Cage side ticket cost $40.

For more information, call or text 802-782-6887.

The event will be open from 11:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is $9 for adults and $4 for children. For more information, call 236-5848.

‘Venetian Sunset’ author to talk European travels Sept. 15 CHAMPLAIN — Author Audrey Ashline Svec will discuss her newly published book “Venetian Sunset” Sept. 15 at the Champlain Meeting House at 6:30 p.m. The upstate New York resident travels throughout the country and in Europe and writes about her experiences.
