The incident stemmed from a press release published in the Press Republican in which the four Ñ Joshua Kretser, Becky Kasper, Rachelle Armstrong and Mike Kelly Ñ called for a wide-scale search for a full time Director of Community Development.

Dr. Tim Abel, lead archeologist at the 2013 Pike’s Cantonment dig, shows the hearth of an officers’ quarters which was discovered by him and his team of students.

PLATTSBURGH Ñ PlattsburghÕ s War of 1812 museum will be celebrating PikeÕ s Cantonment Day, 202 years after American soldiers lay freezing on a piece of ground under simple blankets alongside the Saranac River.

The exact location of the Cantonment, where American forces spent the winter of 1812 - 1813 while preparing for an anticipated summer offensive, was located during an archeological dig in the summer of 2013. A scheduled dig in 2014 never materialized, but museum Manager Dave Deno is hopeful that next summer will bring shovels and trowels back to the Cantonment. Ò No one has disturbed it. ItÕ s really a shame we didnÕ t have anything here this summer, being the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Plattsburgh,Ó he said. Ò We had volunteers, we just didnÕ t have enough students to do it.Ó To remember Cantonment Day, the 1812 museum will be opening its doors at 10 a.m., with a flag raising ceremony to unveil the museum’s newly installed flag pole. They will then be coordinating with the Wreaths Across America ceremony which CONTINUED ON PAGE 16

Northern Adirondack Vocal Ensemble to perform Dec. 27 Local choir readies pair of winter performances

pella chamber choir focusing on the rich and historical repertoire composed specifically for chamber choir unaccompanied by instruments.

LAKE PLACID Ñ The Northern Adirondack Vocal Ensemble will give two performances of a Festival of Lessons and Carols.

Anthems, carols, and hymns illuminate the Christmas story along with community readers and congregational singing in the beloved tradition of KingÕ s College, Cambridge.

Two performances are scheduled: Saturday, Dec. 27 at 7:30 p.m. at St. PeterÕ s Church in Plattsburgh and Sunday, Dec. 28 at 4:00 p.m. at St. Agnes Church in Lake Placid

THE PROGRAM NAVEÕ s Festival of Lessons and Carols follows the traditional model of those performed annually on Christmas Eve (since 1928) at KingÕ s College Chapel in Cambridge, England. The customary format is built around nine short Bible readings from the Old and New Testaments that trace the story of the fall of humanity and the promise of a Messiah to the birth of Jesus. Anthems, carols, and hymns are liberally interspersed throughout to musically illuminate the narrative.

NAVE will again vary the musical palette from previous performances while maintaining several congregational hymns and beloved anthems.

Early music will retain a featured role with several pieces dating from the 16th Century including the festive anthem Ò Gaudete!Ó (Ò Rejoice!Ó ) and the powerfully understated motet Ò O Magnum MysteriumÓ (Ò O Great MysteryÓ ), by Renaissance composer Tomas Luis de Victoria. Other noteworthy pieces of earlier time periods include Ò Christmas Night,Ó whose melody

ABOUT NAVE Under the musical direction of Andrew M. Benware, NAVE is a mixed chamber choir of professional and amateur singers that perform choral music from a variety of periods and styles with harmonies of four to eight parts.

NAVEÕ s membership is truly indicative of its nomenclature, Ò Northern Adirondack,Ó being comprised of membership from points in Clinton, Essex, and Franklin counties. Distinct from other choral groups in our region, NAVE is essentially an a cap-

can be traced back to ArbeauÕ s 1588 Orchesographie, and Ò O Little One Sweet,Ó featuring a harmonization of the traditional German melody by Baroque giant Johann Sebastian Bach.

George Frederic Handel is also represented on the program in a musical response to the reading from Genesis: Ò Since by Man Came Death,Ó from his beloved Messiah.

More modern and complex harmonies greet the listener in the luscious Ò ShepherdÕ s CarolÓ by British composer Bob Chilcott (2001), which tells the birth narrative from the vantage point of the poor shepherds who are roused from their mundane evening tasks by the appearance of a star Ò brighter than Venus.Ó In this piece vocal lines undulate underneath the melody in a sort or shimmering accompaniment before all forces join to a dramatic climax. In an even more austere work, NAVE will present William BlakeÕ s childrenÕ s poem Ò The LambÓ in a musical setting by recently desceased composer John Taverner. Here, vocal lines are frequently at odds with one another in discordant harmonies, while calmly resolving to the unison at each cadence.

The program also includes the traditional, yet infrequently heard English carols Ò Past Three OÕ Clock,Ó Ò The Sussex Carol,Ó CONTINUED ON PAGE 4

USA Luge announces Lake Placid fantasy camp LAKE PLACID Ñ The USA Luge Fantasy Camp, to be held in Lake Placid from April 10-13, 2015, offers its participants an opportunity to experience the thrill of being a world class luge athlete.

The camp is designed to accommodate individuals seeking an exhilarating experience. The coaching staff, made up of Olympic and World Cup medal winners including 1998 Olympic silver medalist Gordy Sheer, offers its knowledge to help experience the sport of luge with an emphasis on fun and safety.

The camps also provide businesses with a one-of-a-kind opportunity for corporate outings, team-building, congratulating top employees or rewarding loyal customers.

The USA Luge Fantasy Camp has been recognized by AOL as one of AmericaÕ s Top 11 fantasy camp experiences.

The fantasy camp, on Lake PlacidÕ s world class venue which has hosted many World Cup and World Championship events, is also a great chance for the individual interested in experiencing the thrill of a lifetime while supporting the athletes and programs of USA Luge.

The camp is a fund-raising activity for USA Luge (a non-profit organization). A portion of the $2,000 registration fee is tax deductible.

Each participant will spend two to three days on ice, and receive the full Olympic treatment with housing provided at the United States Olympic Training Center, just around the corner from USA Luge headquarters.

Instruction includes proper start, steering and racing techniques, with video review of each training session. A strong emphasis is placed on safety.

Prior to departure, there is a race and farewell banquet attended by all campers and several current members of the U.S. Luge National Team.

Subsequently, each new luge racer will be sent a video review of the camp. Everyone also receives a one-year membership to the U.S. Luge Association.

To register for the camp or for further information, please call 1-800-USA-LUGE x 102.

From page 2 and Ò The Cherry Tree CarolÓ in addition to the Old Basque Noel, Ò I Saw a Maiden,Ó set by Edgar Pettman.

OF SPECIAL NOTE Organizers seek to highlight the dazzlingly uptempo Russian work, Ò Bogoroditse Djevo,Ó by contemporary Estonian composer Arvo Part. In it, one can hear evidence of PartÕ s signature Ò tin-

tinnabuliÓ style developed by the composer in response to his mystical experiences of chant. Rhythmic reinflection of a note or harmony seems to take precedence over an expansive harmonic language, allowing the listener to be bathed in the overall wash of sound rather than more intimate detail.

Community members will read the texts, which include passages from Genesis and the Gospels, as well as a contemporary poem, Ò Annunciation,Ó by Denise Levertov. The audience is invited to join with the choir in congregational singing accompanied by University of Notre Dame organist and Potsdam native Benjamin A. Stone. These familiar Advent and Christmas hymns include Ò Once in Royal DavidÕ s City,Ó Ò Come, O Long Expected Jesus,Ó Ò It Came Upon the Midnight Clear,Ó Ò Silent Night,Ó Ò Shepherds in the Field Abiding,Ó Ò As With Gladness Men of Old,Ó and Ò O

December 6, 2014 Come, All Ye Faithful.Ó Again this year, the program will conclude with StoneÕ s performance of the organ postlude, Ò In Dulci JubiloÓ BWV 729, by J.S. Bach.

Admission is a suggested donation of $10. For more information, find them on Facebook or contact drew.benware@gmail. com.

ABOUT THE CONDUCTOR Andrew M. Benware is currently the Director of Choral Activities at Saranac Lake High School, where he conducts the Festival Chorus, Concert Choir, MenÕ s Ensemble, WomenÕ s Ensemble, and teaches small group vocal instruction. He also serves as the Music Director for the annual musical theater production and maintains a small private piano studio.

Below: The Northern Adirondack Vocal Ensemble, or NAVE, will perform in Plattsburgh on Saturday, Dec. 27 and in Lake Placid on Sunday, Dec. 28. For more information, find them on Facebook or contact drew. benware@gmail.com.

Sawatdee opens Uptown location Chef brings experience from her mother’s kitchen to Plattsburgh

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ ThereÕ s a new place to taste the Orient in Plattsburgh, and itÕ s a chip off the old block.

Sawatdee restaurant has opened an new uptown location, Sawatdee Thai and Asian Cuisine, and theyÕ re branching out from their locally acclaimed Thai cuisine, adding Vietnamese and Hong Kong inspired fare to their menu.

Co-owner Supanee Gilbert hails from Thailand, where she learned the trade from helping her mother in preparing daily meals at the age of nine. Before long her mother was having her prepare the entire meal herself, when homework permitted.

She moved to the United States to go to college and found the transition to living in America a rough one. Ò We had to learn everything, from how to take a bus, just to how to communicate.Ó She met her husband, co-owner William Gilbert, in California, while she was pursuing her education in the tourism field.

They were eventually approached by a friend from the North Country, who suggested they come east and open a Thai res-

taurant. Ò She said there are no Thai restaurants in town, why donÕ t we come and try a new thing for this area,Ó she said.

They did, and seven years ago they moved to Plattsburgh and opened Sawatdee downtown. Ò I love Plattsburgh because itÕ s small, but they have all the things that you need. Everything is close to each other.Ó In opening the new Sawatdee, Gilbert hopes to broaden the North Country palate, like they did with their first restaurant.

“Over here, it’s cold five or six months, why not open a noodle house with things that warm people up?Ó she said. Ò We still serve the Thai dishes, with the noodle dishes.

Gilbert has added a new chef at their uptown location. Thana Jenkarn, who attended culinary school in Thailand, brings another level of experience the back of the house at Sawatdee.

Gilbert says the uptown location was harder to open than the downtown location. Ò People get used to the Thai food downtown and get confused,Ó she said.

Whether itÕ s the Thai or new fare that brings you in, Gilbert hopes to develop as dedicated a following as they have at their downtown location.

Opinion North Countryman Editorial

Essex County digging own grave with cemetery takeover

L

ast month, a battle was reignited over the Old Essex County Home Cemetery when a local resident urged the Essex County Board of Supervisors to do something Ñ anything Ñ to bring the former county-run cemetery in Whallonsburg, which is now under private ownership, back into the warm embrace of government control.

The Board of Supervisors tripped over themselves to pass a resolution to move forward with eminent domain proceedings if the owner didnÕ t agree to sell the property at fair market value, which she has owned for 30 years after purchasing it outright from the Essex County Industrial Development Agency back in 1985.

Sound familiar?

In case you forgot, county supervisors erred earlier this year when they opted to decline George MooreÕ s bid for the former Frontier Town on the grounds that his offer did not meet the minimum bid of taxes owed on the property, a caveat that was not publicized, nor applied to the other parcels on the auction block.

Moore sued the county.

As we near the end of the year, that case is still tied up in court and the board continues to waste taxpayer money and county time defending it.

So this brazen decision to dive back into possible litigation in a case that contains many of the same ingredients seems premature and foolhardy, especially considering the two sides havenÕ t even sat down for a rendezvous yet.

To us, a friendly chat seems like it should be the first step — not seizing private property through eminent domain.

Furthermore, you canÕ t take things just because you want them.

Look, we get it Ñ a spruced-up cemetery would be pleasant. It would provide a project for the community to rally behind and something for the county to hold up as a commitment to civic virtue and the needs of their constituents.

But county officials should have simply chosen not to sell the property 30 years ago.

Eminent domain is usually reserved for large-scale development projects.

The controversial measure is used as a nuclear option, like when OÕ Hare International Airport in Chicago fought for five years to obtain a small cemetery for expansion purposes — or the landmark Kelo v. City of New London case that held that takeovers are permissible if used for economic development and as a means to generate municipal revenue.

On the other hand, it should not be a knee-jerk reaction to impassioned public speeches, such as the case currently facing the board.

Essex CountyÕ s attempt to strip a landowner from the land where her husband is buried does not meet this criteria.

ThatÕ s not to say we donÕ t sympathize with the emotional argument underpinning this request.

We agree that itÕ s a shame that the resting place of 378 county residents have been overlooked and is now largely forgotten.

Each of them deserve better than eternal anonymity.

But that was something that should have been considered in 1985, not 30 years later when the county has more pressing issues.

Cooler heads should prevail and the flames of moral outrage shouldn’t be fanned for what, once the smoke clears, is a legal issue pertaining to if the initial sale was legal to begin with.

Since this is a dispute between two private citizens, the parties should resolve the problem amongst themselves without government involvement.

And do we really want to get the Adirondack Park Agency involved?

What would be even more shameful is if the county moved forward with eminent domain.

Come to think of it, supervisors have a better chance of taking Frontier Town by that measure than their attempt to pry a graveyard away from an elderly widow.

Perhaps if the group thought of that back in April, we wouldnÕ t be having this conversation. ÑD

Cartoon borders on hate speech To the Editor: First, I am glad to receive your free weekly periodical in my mailbox each week. I rely on it for local news, notifications of lo-

cal rummage sales, library sales, and other events.

As publisher, you certainly have every right to express your personal opinions on the editorial page. Sometimes I agree with your sentiments, sometimes I do not.

However, I must express my profound disappointment at the caricature cartoon by Kevin McCarthy you chose to publish in the current issue.

I found it insulting to our elected President, who after all, has been serving our county for six years now. Sometimes I disagree with his decisions, just as I did with the sitting president during the Bush years.

But this borders on the pure hate speech type of Ò opinionÓ which is all too common these days.

Op-Ed contains flawed assumptions

that there was a conspiracy within the GOP on keeping videoÕ s of GruberÕ s comments under wraps. Would ask you to provide credible evidence of such. I would think if they had these videos months ago, theyÕ d have run them pre-election.

You also missed the mark on the low voter turnout.

How much of a mandate it is and will be for the GOP is up for debate and remains to be seen, But even Obama, Democrat Party strategists, and political pundits admit that the Dems got absolutely thumped, from top to bottom, Senate races, House races, Governor races, state legislatures.

In many areas turnout among registered Republicans was in line with previous mid-term elections. It was the supposed Dems base that stayed home, and they stayed home because they were lied to and deceived by Obama, Pelosi, Reid and their failed policies.

It was no accident that most Democrat Senate and House candidates tried to get as far away from Obama as possible and disinvited him to campaign for them.

An Op-Ed piece is what it is, but you mixed opinion with some flawed assumptions of the facts.

Jim Jacob, Jay

To the Editor: Mr. Alexander, your recent Ò Beware the Trojan HorseÓ OpEd piece just might be one of the most myopic and self serving pieces of yours that IÕ ve read.

LetÕ s start with Ò Where were the Republicans last year, when this Obamacare Architect.....Ó Really?

Where was our supposed fair, impartial and dispassionate press last year when Gruber was spouting off?

This includes you and Denpubs. IÕ ll await you pointing me to the Denpubs archives of last year for the issues in which you brought GruberÕ s spouting off to light and opined on them.

As you yourself noted, it was only when Ò conservativeÓ stations began airing them that the MSM picked up on them.

You do realize GruberÕ s comments were made in quasi public settings, itÕ s not as if he was on 60 Minutes. Interesting that since heÕ s been exposed, heÕ s gone underground. You seem to infer

Ski Season: Starts, Stops and Still Waiting for Snow

Last night at deer camp

The coming weekend signals the end of the regular big game hunting season across a large swath of the North Country. It will come to a close at sunset on Sunday, December 7.

For diehards, who just havenÕ t had enough, thereÕ s still an extra week of late muzzleloader season which stretches from Dec. 8 - Dec. 14, and allows hunters to harvest a deer of either sex in WMUÕ s on the periphery of the Park.

Continued muzzleloading opportunities will also be available in WMUÕ s in the Southern Tier from Dec. 8 Ð Dec. 16.

But for many, the coming weekend will signal the end of the season. Once again, local hunters have been hampered by the lack of a consistent snow cover this season. It seems to have become a steady trend in recent years, with many areas experiencing less than a full week of good cover.

The long held, traditional technique of tracking big bucks that are dragging their hooves have become a rather lost art in the day and age of climate change.

While hunters in the upper elevations enjoyed a few days of light snow cover, the valleys remained primarily green and brown the entire season. It becomes awful difficult to pick out a deer when they blend into the brown background so easily.

This weekend will signal the end of the season for a majority of the local hunting camps.

It will be a time to clean up camp, patch a few holes in the roof and pack up the hunting gear until next year.

With the passing of yet another hunting season, the trails may seem to have grown longer, and maybe the hills got a bit steeper; but there will be another year, filled with the same old stories and the practical jokes.

ThatÕ s the kind of place camp is! ItÕ s not intended to be a permanent residence.

Rather, itÕ s a refuge, a place where we go for respite in the effort to escape the daily toils and trials that wear on a manÕ s soul.

It is a unique location where grown men can act like boys, and boys can grow into men.

However, as our lives get busier, time seems to go quicker. We have less time, more stress and seemingly ever greater responsibilities.

Researchers tell us this is not good for us, that such behavior makes us more aggressive, more depressed, less patient, slower witted and fatter. But most of us already know that.

What researchers havenÕ t been able to tell us is why, or how we can fix it. However, the answer really is quite simple and obvious; we just need to spend more time in camp!

We donÕ t go to camp in an effort to get away or escape, rather we go seeking an opportunity to return to our roots, to recapture some indescribable, previous existence where men were free to roam far and wide, where the most pressing matters were food and shelter.

While hunters continue to bemoan the seasonÕ s lack of snow cover, backcounty skiers have already been out enjoying it on the Whiteface Toll Road, the Paul Smiths VIC, the Hayes Brook Trails and a few other choice locales. Unfortunately, the Big Blow that buried Buffalo in six feet of snow a week ago, didnÕ t quite make it into the interior of the Park.

The recent warmup served to erase most of the snow, but itÕ s likely the weather will soon turnabout.

However, travelers planning a trip into the higher elevations are advised to use traction devices to prevent slips and falls on snow and ice.

Although many ponds and lakes already have a skim layer of ice, it is far too early in the season to even consider venturing on them.

However, if current conditions do not provide an appropriate amount of snow cover for the weekend, backcountry ski enthusiasts can still get into the groove, while enjoying the The MountaineerÕ s Fifth Annual Ski Season Kickoff Party at the Keene Arts Playhouse, located on Route 73, Keene, New York.

Visitors are bring encouraged to bring their own beverages and refreshments.

The Mountaineer is proud to be one of only five Dynafit Competence Centers in the United States -, a title reserved for the top ski touring specialists in the world.

The event will feature the award winning films of the Winter Wildlands Alliance Backcountry Film Festival. Special guest appearance by ULLR, the Norse God of Snow.

Thoughts on camp and the hunt

Ò There is a passion for hunting deeply implanted in the human breast.Ó Charles Dickens For brick and mortar breed filth and crime, With a pulse of evil that throbs and beats; And men are withered before their prime By the curse paved in with the lanes and streets.

And lungs are poisoned and shoulders bowed, In the smothering reek of mill and mine; And death stalks in on the struggling crowdÑ But he shuns the shadow of the Ô oak and pineÓ George W. Sears aka Ô Nessmuk, Travel writer, and tuberculosis sufferer Ò The great body of our citizens shoot less as time goes on. We should encourage rifle practice among schoolboys, and indeed among all classes, as well as in the military services by every means in our power.

Thus, and not otherwise, may we be able to assist in preserving peace in the world. The first step Ð in the direction of preparation to avert war if possible, and to be fit for war if it should come – is to teach men to shoot!Ó Theodore Roosevelt

ASK style & substance

creative solutions to live your life with style & substance Sally Meisenheimer and Michele Armani

D

ear style & substance, I really enjoyed your last article about living in gratitude and abundance. While my question is not as lofty, you did inspire me to create the holiday spirit in my home. My intention is greater than my skill, so where do I begin to create beauty and warmth?

We appreciate your desire to create a warm and welcoming space. Presentation sets the stage for how we navigate a situation and behave (or misbehave) in life. Think about how you feel when you are wearing a great outfit, your confidence soars. The same can be said for creating a beautiful space. Whether it is a home, office, or business, all who enter have an immediate reaction to their surroundings and act accordingly.

While many people Ò get into the spirit of the seasonÓ through over the top decorating, we opt for a more traditional and simple

www.northcountryman.com

style of celebrating the season. Often times when we take on a task of importance, we can become overwhelmed by the idea of perfection. You can avoid this pitfall by setting realistic expectations and enjoying the work rather than just trying to finish.

Begin the decorating by clearing out, cleaning up, and de-cluttering your living spaces as you will need a clean palette to work with. You still need to Ò liveÓ in these rooms; so start the decorating with a light, livable layer and add to that as the season builds. Whether you are styling your home, creating an outfit, or setting a table, the first rule to follow is truth, your truth. You get to decide what is beautiful.

Remembering the reason behind your own spiritual interpretation of the holidays can help with what you are choosing. If you are unsure of your theme, look at magazines or on-line sites to jump start your ideas. We offer a few easy to follow recommendations to bring your theme to life: •Bring in your tree and string it with lights, but wait on the dŽ cor for a few days or weeks. Build the anticipation and enjoy the lightness and sparseness it represents.

December 6, 2014 •Choose one or two focus colors or ideas; blue and white with a focus on snowflakes, red and green with some modern polka dots and plaids, or silver and gold with splashes of greens and lights.

•Bring some outdoors in; pine cones, stark branches, and birdsÕ nests add a natural touch. They can be enhanced with a little glitter on the pine cones, a ceramic or wooden bird in the nest or a big basket of branches with white lights and bulbs.

•Three is a magic number (Schoolhouse Rock recognized this years ago). Gather objects in your home, favorite decorations, and a dash of sparkle. Group three objects to create visual interest, texture, height and depth.

•Use some whimsy from your childhood; teddy bears with festive ribbon bow ties or vintage necklaces, a plaid scarf for a table or mantle runner or a pile of childrenÕ s Christmas books on the coffee table Ð all of these objects add a touch of genuine nostalgia.

•Different heights of fat white candles with bough and berry cozies look beautiful on a long table.

•Wrap a fur blanket around the base of your tree and you may find a peaceful kitty taking a nap one afternoon!

Remember to keep your surroundings comfortable and orderly. Holidays tend to be quite busy, so you want to be able to keep order without spending all of your family and friend time cleaning and reorganizing. Presentation sets the stage, but how you spend time in your space is the real measure of success and joy.

Calnon

From page 1 Bruce Lawson, who was appointed by Calnon to fill the position which had been vacant since 2007.

The release read as a no-confidence vote for Lawson.

But the press release itself, about possibly replacing Lawson, is not the main issue according to Calnon.

At Wednesday’s press conference, while fighting to keep his rising temper in check, Calnon said the four councilors, all Democrats, represented a quorum and intentionally utilized personal e-mail accounts rather than city e-mail accounts.

This, he says, was to circumvent the Open Meetings Law and the Freedom of Information Act. Ò BACK ROOM SHENANIGANSÓ Ò This is the kind of back room political shenanigans that weÕ re all disgusted by when they happen in Washington,Ó he said. Ò Well, IÕ ll tell you something: maybe we put up with it Washington, but IÕ m gonna tell you, IÕ m not going to put up with it here in Plattsburgh and I donÕ t think our citizens will either. Ò I think these councilors should be relieved that New York State does not allow recall elections. I donÕ t have the power to ask anybody to resign, but IÕ m going to tell you something, the citizens of Plattsburgh have the right to be represented by councilors who respect both New York State laws and the city charter.Ó Ò NO OVERT COLLUSIONÓ Calnon made the e-mails available as part of a press packet.

In one e-mail, Ward 2 Councilor Jim Kelly said of the process regarding the press release: Ò So far weÕ ve kept it very positive. LetÕ s try to stay that way, imho (in my humble opinion). If we need to pull out the big guns later on in case of further obstinance (sic), we wonÕ t hesitate to do it.Ó Calnon said that he would make any other personal e-mails

www.northcountryman.com

December 6, 2014

his office is able to locate, which discuss city business, available as well.

After CalnonÕ s press conference, Armstrong appeared to take pains to explain the reasoning behind their press release, but not the process of keeping the information private.

Instead she focused on the fact that LawsonÕ s position is a $60,000 annual line item in the city budget, and that other positions still needed to be filled, along with the fact that there has yet to be a search for a full time candidate for Director of Community Development. Ò WeÕ ve had requests for full-time lines in the Police Department. We donÕ t have a lieutenant; thereÕ s a lieutenant that needs to be filled. The fire department made a request for an Assistant Fire Chief, so we have to look at all of those requests within the context of value, and I believe it was a perfectly legitimate question to ask regarding should we have a full-blown search,Ó she said.

Away from the podium, Kretser characterized the e-mail exchange as just one person sending the press release to the affected councilors, and that no overt collusion was taking place.

He did, however, express the possibility that what they had done was a violation of the Open Meetings Law. Ò The only virtual thing that I saw was one councilor sending the press release to interested parties, which I guess was a mistake because I guess maybe that that was a violation, even though nothing was being discussed,Ó Kretser said.

OPEN MEETINGS 101 Calnon said that he has contacted the New York State Committee on Open Governments and has asked that they offer a training session for city councilors on Freedom of Information Law and Open Meetings Law, and that if they attend, he will not investigate the matter further.

When asked by a reporter, both Armstrong and Kretser readily agreed to attend the training.

In a ruling on a similar case, supplied by Calnon, the Assistant Director of the New York State Committee on Open Government published the following as a clarification of the law.

Plattsburgh mayor James Calnon.

Ò É a series of communications between individual members or telephone calls among the members which results in a collective decision, or a meeting or vote held by means of a telephone conversation, by mail or e-mail, in our opinion, would be inconsistent with law.Ó Scheduling the MayorÕ s planned training session will be taken up at this weekÕ s Common Counsel meeting.

Cantonment From page 1

will be taking place at the Old Post Cemetery at noon. The museum will be serving refreshments, as well as self-guided tours, and a discussion of the Cantonment and the Battle of Plattsburgh by local historian Keith Herkalo at 2 p.m..

If weather conditions are too cold, the wreath ceremony, which is put on by the American Military Retirees Association, will take place inside the museum. Last winterÕ s ceremony is remembered by many participants for strikingly cold weather for mid December.

At 1 p.m. a War of 1812 re-enactor boot camp for children will be held at the museum. Ò WeÕ re trying to do stuff both inside and outside throughout the day,Ó said Deno. Ò This year we wanted to do it bigger and better.Ó For more information, contact the museum at 566-1814.

rand knows the inexperienced team will have to adjust quickly to varsity.

With only two players over six feet on the team, Garrand knows rebounding will be an area of focus, but said Ò speed, hard work and dedicationÓ are strengths of this team.

Despite the graduations, Northeastern Clinton will put four seniors on the court, including two key pieces. Ò (We) will be looking to Brendan Boutin and Austin Tetreault to be great leaders and bring out the best in everybody else on the team,Ó said Garrand. Ò Each player will be a very important

piece to the puzzle.

Five sophomores are on the roster, as well as eighth grader Olivia Gonyo.

Kokes said he has a young team thatÕ s Ò enthusiastic to learn the sportÓ and will focus his team on spare shooting and ability to string marks.

Despite loosing Chris Kokes, Mark Furman and Joey Robert to graduation, the Cougars will feature a handful of players to watch, including the boysÕ Matt Jolicoeur and Justin Lapan and the girlsÕ Madison Dumas, Jaden Gosselin and Sabrina Phair.

Boys’ hockey

Division II Hockey 2013-14 record: 8-9-1, 4-5-1 2013-14 postseason: 4-1 loss to Lake Placid, Section VII semifinals CHAMPLAIN Ñ The last time the Cougars played, they jumped out to an early 1-0 lead before falling to Lake Placid in the Section VII semifinals.

Despite losing six key players from that team, head coach Scott Lafountain said the team returns some key defensive players and forwards this winter.

He added that overall team speed should be a strength this season.

With new coaching staff and many first year players, development and continuity will be keys to Northeastern ClintonÕ s success on the ice.

Players to watch this winter include sopho-

more winger Alex Gonyo and junior center Dayton Roberts as well as four seniors taking their ice for the last season for Northeastern Clinton: Massimo Birch, Chris Bradford, Jordan Birlotti and Brady Vassar.
