lindsay@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — The high water of the Hudson River kept some paddlers away from the 54th Annual White W ater Derby last weekend, but gave others quite the ride.

Numbers were down, according to event organizer Kate Nightingale. Thirty-five boats enter ed the slalom race in North River , while 32 boats competed in the down-river race between North Creek and Riparius.

Nightingale attributes the numbers to people steering clear of the unusually high water this year.

“People who chose not to race for safetyeasons r probably made a sound choice,” she said.

During past derby weekends, the Hudson has flowed around five feet. This past weekend, however, the water was up around eight feet, making for some treacherous rapids, but also covering up a lot of rocks and debris.

Nightingale took appr opriate pr ecautions to add more safety rafts and personnel as well as al-

tered Sunday’s course. She moved the course to river right to avoid some of the more challenging parts of the river , while still keeping the course technical.

Overall, Nightingale was pleased with how the weekend turned out.

“My volunteers wer e gr eat,” she said. “And everything went well. I look forwar d to next year.”

NCS offers college degree to students

By Lindsay Yandon

lindsay@denpubs.com NEWCOMB — W ith added North Country Community College (NCCC) courses and a thriving distance learning network, Newcomb Central School (NCS) hopes to soon graduate high school students with an associates degr ee.

The relationship between the two institutions grew from a bridge program, launched last year , to intr oduce Newcomb students to college courses over their distance learning network.

The network has also been fostering communication between North Country schools including Newcomb, Indian Lake, Long Lake, Minerva, Johnsburg and other districts statewide. Each school has the ability to ecord r classes and broadcast them live to students tuning in from other locations as well as hold regional meetings between district administrators and faculty members.

Through last year’s pilot program, NCS was able to offer their students the opportunity to take classes from NCCC separated from professors and other students only by a television screen.

Thursday nights to bustle again this summer

On the May 17th Vote For The JCS Budget and Board Members We recommend you vote FOR the 2011-12 Budget proposed by the School Board, which reflects a 10% reduction in the Tax Levy.

More important still: For the three seats being contested on the School Board this year, we urge you to vote for the following WRITE-IN candidates that we too will be supporting: Carmine R. Bellotti David R. Braley Anthony W. Moro They will be running against three incumbent members of a JCS School Board that over many years has failed in its duty because it has become disconnected from the concerns of our district community that elected them to office. (Example: last year’s Contingency Budget episode?).

You will receive an important package of information on the write-in candidates. It will also detail some irresponsible fiscal games being played by the JCS School Board with your money.

Please read it carefully.

JCS budget cuts tax levy 10%

By Lindsay Yandon

lindsay@denpubs.com JOHNSBURG — V oters in the Johnsbur g school district will go to vote May 17 on a budget that proposes at 10 percent reduction to the 2011-2012 tax levy — a reduction much larger than any other in the region.

The budget pr oposes a total tax levy of about $5.8 million, $5.2 million generated from taxes. The total pr oposed budget of $9.85 million is a two perc ent or $205,700 - reduction from the current budget.

From those numbers, the finance committee has estimated that the tax rate per $1,000 of assessed property will be $9.40, down fro m last year ’s $10.45.

Several savings and cuts have been made within the district to r each the pr oposed numbers, accor ding to superintendent mike Markwica.

Johnsburg Central School saved about $300,000 when faculty and staf f changed health insurance plans and made salary concessions.

In addition, JCS eliminated some pro gramming including a home and car eers position and driver ’s education, r educed busing needs, and cut back on supply and field trip budgets.

“We are losing programs and the school is going to feel it,” said Markwica. “But I think that we have come up with a very fiscally responsible budget.”

Voters in Johnsburg will also vote on three school boar d positions next week. Incumbents Thomas Or dway, Erwin Morris and Tara Sears have again submitted petitions and will be running for re-election.

Challenging them will be thr ee write-in candidates who are running campaigns under the watchdog gr oup, Johnsbur g Central School Citizen Budget Committee.

Carmine Bellotti, David Braley and Anthony Moro are the members seeking a seat on the board, running as write-in candidates because they were unable to file their necessary paperwork on time.

“We see write-in candidates every year ,” said Markwica.

Despite being a write-in, Braley is optimistic about their chances.

“There is no doubt that a write-in campaign is mor e difficult, but if we win it will mean a huge mandate from the voting public for sustainable school expenditures,” he said.

The write-in candidates ar e r unning on a hefty platform. Among the issues are opposition to expensive class size reduction, to bolster student achievement and cut expenditures.

“With pr oper budgeting, pr udent fiscal management a nd t ough n egotiating w e b elieve that we can impr ove student achievement and lower expenditures to a sustainable level,” said Braley . “We would be helping both the school and the hard pressed district taxpayer.”

Johnsburg Central School

School budget vote!

Tuesday, May 17th!

We hope for your support of JCS. Please remember to vote on Tuesday, May 17th.

Voting is at JCS, Noon-8pm On the ballot: •2011-12 school budget (a 10% tax levy decrease) •Bus Purchase Proposition •Board of Education (3 seats): Erwin Morris, Thomas Ordway, Tara Sears

Thank you!

Of the 697 public schools in New York State, JCS has the second largest tax levy decrease (minus 10%) in the State this year.

(Empire Center Report) This is a decrease far beyond almost all schools in the State.

Due to financial pressures, JCS has made many program and staffing cuts over the last three years. The proposed budget and tax levy decrease has been made possible due to multiple-year spending cuts (while absorbing a reduction in State Aid the last two years.) Several student programs have been eliminated, staffing positions have been cut, and JCS teachers voluntarily made salary concessions and/or health benefit changes.

Meanwhile, the JCS Citizens Budget Committee has proposed deeper cuts be implemented at JCS. From their October 2010 report, they have proposed the following: •

Combine elementary classes into larger numbers.

• Eliminate Elementary Guidance Counselor. (A position that also serves as Chairperson for the Committee on Special Education – a State-mandated position that services over 20% of our student population.)

• Mentoring for new staff not needed. (This is mandated by the State.)

• Cut Teacher Aides/Assistants, Maintenance, and Transportation by 10% each. (The Budget Workshop on transportation clearly outlined how bus routes are at maximum capacity by State law, and several of our buses barely meet State standards to be kept on the road.)

• Cuttechnology requisitions.

• Cut library staffing and School Psychologist by 25% each.

Furthermore, their report compared JCS to a select few schools. When the JCSPTSA compared JCS to a larger number of similar-sized schools, in rural areas throughout New York State, JCS has a comparable cost-per-student and test scores that are better than the State average and equal to or better than those similar-sized schools.

The JCSPTSA has had a representative at virtually every Board of Education meeting and Budget Workshop over the last year. We have observed a Board that has listened to comments, answered questions, been transparent in decision-making, and has delivered a 2011-12 proposed budget with a 10% decrease in the tax levy. While cuts have been made, we are grateful that the Board has not lost sight of our top priority: ourchildren.

Politicians showing leadership skills during the flood of ’11

A

ll over the North Country, we’ve seen more water than we can handle. The constant rain helped flood aptly named byways like the River Road, Old River Road and Water Street; shoreline homes; parks; ferry stations; boat launches; and more … much more.

We’ve seen people boating where they normally would be walking, bicycling or driving. We’ve seen bridges collapse, roads washed out, cars submerged, businesses close and ferries discontinue service. We’ve seen people hurt and almost die. And we’ve seen strangers care for one another like family members.

On the whole, we’re pleased with the response from our local and state governments.

At least, on the whole.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo even came by for a photo opportunity on April 29, visiting the collapsed Broad Street Bridge in the Essex County town of Moriah, where resident Anna Mayhood jumped from her SUV to save her own life two days before.

We asked Cuomo if he had made plans to meet “the woman who almost died here the other day” — Ms. Mayhood — and he said no. Asked what he would say to her to ensure her that New York state’s roads are safe, he quipped, “You are lucky; light a candle.”

Like a true politician, he didn’t answer the entire question. In fact, we’re disappointed he made a joke out of a question that included the words, “the woman who almost died here.” He was trying to be funny in front of his friends and the TV cameras, but his brief lapse of judgement showed a lack of respect and compassion with regard to a life-threatening situation.

Moreover, the governor blamed Mother Nature, not a lack of road and bridge inspections, for what happened at that historic bridge, which was said to have been built more than 100 years ago to cross over the Lake Champlain and Moriah Railroad tracks.

But give him credit; Cuomo did visit.

He came north to inspect the flood damage and declare a state of emergency for Essex County when he could have easily

stayed in Albany to issue the order.

As he stood on the brink of the collapsed Broad Street Bridge — staring into the wreckage of asphalt, stone, timber and iron — we heard him utter these words under his breath: “Man, that’s a frightening drop.”

The flooding situation was just as frightening for local politicians, such as Moriah Town Supervisor Tom Scozzafava, who praised Cuomo for his support. The supervisor pointed to the DOT employees working side-by-side with town highway crews. They were fixing the erosion — 4 feet of washed-away topsoil — that exposed a sewer main during the April 27 flash flood. He said this kind of state-local cooperation wouldn’t have happened a year ago under Gov. David Paterson.

And he’s right. Gov. Cuomo is showing leadership skills not seen in Albany since George Pataki left office more than four years ago.

Locally, the response from town, village, city and county officials during the flooding crisis has been tremendous.

We’re proud to have leaders like Keene Supervisor Bill Ferebee, who risked his Jeep in rising water to help transport neighbors to safe ground. Let’s not forget the firefighters, emergency technicians, highway crews, and the countless volunteers who filled sandbags and manned Red Cross shelters.

Times like these, we’re proud to say we live in a small town, where neighbors look out for one another. It’s good to see our elected officials are doing the same.

Yet the flooding is still not over, and there’s plenty more work to be done. The rebuilding will take many months and millions of dollars. Let’s just hope the political leadership skills exhibited these past two weeks are practiced consistently and are not simply flashes of brilliance.

or the second month in a row the Hudson River was the big story, as April 2011 will long be remembered as the month of the big flood. In March, it was a large ice jam that was the center of attention. That pro duced a very high gauge r eading of 12.19 feet, which seemed like a new record only to have it easily eclipsed by a r eading of 13.65 feet April 28. A combination of heavy warm rains and significant snow melt cr eated the perfect storm for record high water. This is certainly one month that many will never forget.

The average high temperature was 52 degrees and the average low was 32.4 degrees, giving us an average of 42.2 degrees, only .6 degrees less than normal. The month seemed much colder than normal as snow was so often seen, but warmer temperatures near the end of the month pulled up the average. This was the seventh consecutive month with below normal temperatures. The highest temperature of 76 degrees was recorded April 28 and the lowest temperatur e of 19 degr ees was recorded April 7.

Melted pr ecipitation for the month was 6.72 inches — 3.00 inches above normal and the third most on r ecord. The wettest April was in 2005 when 7.58 inches was r ecorded and the driest was in 1999 when only .63 inches fell. Our seasonal total is now 18.43 inches — 6.02 inches above normal. April is the second month in a r ow with over six inches of rain. There was measurable precipitation on 21 days with the greatest amount of 2.23 inches falling on the April 26.

Snowfall was only 1.5 inches, which was 2.6 inches below normal. However , ther e

was a period of time from April 17 -24 when it snowed for six of the eight days with only a trace amount here in Riparius but measurable amounts in other parts of town. Our seasonal total is now 92.8 inches, which is 14.3 inches above the normal of 78.5 inches.

The river pr oduced the big story of the month as it rose to record breaking height on April 28 of 13.65 feet, breaking the old mark of 12.14 feet reached Dec. 31, 1948. The river reached flood stage of 10 feet at 1:15 a.m.

April 27 and r emained at flood stage until 8:15 a.m. April 30. The river had appeare d to crest at 11:30 a.m. April 27 at a height of 12 feet and then began to re cede until 3: 30 a.m.

April 28 when it began to rise again. It continued to rise all dayApril 28 until it re ached an unprecedented level of 13.65 feet at 10:30 p.m. in the evening. This produced a rate of flow of 36,200 cubic feet per second or almost 290,000 gallons per second. Here in Riparius the old Methodist campgr ound was flooded for the first time in memory with water entering seven of the camps and washing out a lar ge part of the town r oad that passes thr ough the gr ounds. Only a few more inches and all of the camps would have sustained considerable damage. The campground road was closed from April 28 until May 3 when town highway crews could make the road passable to traffic. This flood will not soon be forg otten by those of us who watched nervously as it inched upwar d to set the new record height.

Everything looks pretty good so far.

If you have never helped with the garden come on over for a visit and see what we do.

It is a fun day and we could use the help.

Question of the month: Who is a teacher that you appreciate?

I appreciate Mrs. Bassett because she teaches us to knee walk.

Duncan Cameron - Kindergarten - Johnsburg Central School I appreciate Mr. Gelber because he teaches us about books and he tells us to espect r them.

Autumn Barrett - Kindergarten - Johnsburg Central School I appreciate Coach Toney because she is really nice to us. She teaches us to play tag and does not let the other kids say ‘ha-ha’ to us.

Aleesha Washburn - Grade 1 - Johnsburg Central School Mrs. Hayden is important to me because if she did not teach me how to swim I would not know how to swim. Then, if I went on vacation to the beach I would not know howto swim and I would just have to sit on the sand and watch other people having fun.

Sydney Selleck - Grade 3 - Johnsburg Central School I appr eciate my fourth grade teacher Mrs. Morris because she is very kind. When you have to stay home because you are sick or injured, she will send your work to you and sometimes sends home a pop or something sweet. I will never forget Mrs. Morris.

Mallory Pierson - Grade 4 - Johnsburg Central School I appreciate Mrs. McKenna because when I am sad sometimes she makes me feel happy.

She also pulled my tooth out for me.

Madison Vaus - Grade 1 -Johnsburg Central School I appreciate Mrs. McKenna because she is nice and teaches me stuff . She also gives us extra recess and makes us feel good about who we are no matter what.

Sam Porter - Grade 1 - Johnsburg Central School I appreciate Coach Toney because I love playing Sharks and Minnows.

Michael Wagner - Kindergarten - Johnsburg Central School

Cunningham continues to plead not guilty.

Prevention Team addresses underage drinking TICONDEROGA — The Prevention Team, in partnership with the state Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services, r ecently sponsor ed a training in Lake Placid to address false identification and using the cyber world to police under -age alcohol issues.

Kristy Sprague, Essex County district attorney, welcomed the participants fr om Essex, Clinton, Franklin and St. Lawr ence counties and the St. Regis Mohawk Nation. The almost 30 attendees r epresented tribal police, county sherif f departments, local law enforcement, the state police, campus police fr om four colleges and a local community coalition.

“Underage drinking is a concern nationwide,” said Doug T erbeek, executive director of the T iconderoga-based Prevention T eam. “Although some North Country rates have shown a decrease in r ecent surveys, in general binge drinking rates ar e higher than state averages. Under -age drinking is a causal factor in a host of serious pr oblems, including homicide, suicide, traumatic injury, drowning, burns, violent and property crime, high risk sex, fetal alcohol syndr ome, alcohol poisoning, as well as the need for tr eatment for alcohol abuse and dependence. Young people who begin drinking befor e age 15 ar e four times mor e likely to develop alcohol dependence and are two and a half times more likely to become abusers of alcohol than those who begin drinking at age 21.”

The morning workshop was “Dealing with False Identification.” Inspect-

ing government-issued identification is one major mechanism for insuring that buyers meet minimum age r equirements. The instructor was R. J. Elrick. He is a 29-year veteran of law enforcement in Vermont having served as the dir ector of the V ermont Police Academy, an elected sheriff in Rutland County and a municipal police officer.

Participants were instructed in recognizing and validating legitimate forms identification and current trends in the production of fraudulent identification.

The afternoon workshop was “Policing the Cyber World for Under-age Alcohol Issues.” Key points cover ed in the training included the fundamentals of the internet, how social networking websites function, how to access these websites for the purpose of gathering information r elated to underage alcohol pr oblems and what can be done with the information gleaned from the searches. The presenter, Jared Olson, is Idaho’s first traf fic safety r esource prosecutor (TSRP) employed by the Idaho Prosecuting Attorneys Association. Olson has a criminal justice master ’s degr ee fr om the University of Cincinnati and his juris doctorate from the University of Idaho.

According to data fr om OASAS, under-age drinking cost the citizens of New York $3.5 billion in 2007. These costs include medical car e, work loss, and pain and suffering associated with the multiple pr oblems r esulting fr om the use of alcohol by youth. This translates to a cost of $1,802 a year for each youth in the state. Youth violence and

Doug Terbeek traffic crashes attributable to alcohol use by under -age youth r epresent the largest costs for New York State.

The training was supported by OASAS and Enfor cement Trainers/Consultants from the Underage Drinking Enfor cement T raining Center, under a grant fr om the federal Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention’s Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws program.

This law enforcement training is part of a series of events and awar enessraising initiatives to celebrate The Prevention Team’s 25 years serving Essex County families, schools and communities.

denpubs@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County is once again scouring the region for a new public health director.

Douglas said that at least one interview has already been conducted and that the county was likely to hir e someone soon.

"I believe we can pull this of f in a month's time if not sooner," Douglas said.

The job pays between $79,000 and $83,000 per year.

Area officials seek information on flood damage

By Chris Morris

denpubs@denpubs.com ESSEX COUNTY — Officials in Essex County ar e ur ging homeowners and businesses to pr ovide information on damage caused by recent flooding.

Don Jaquish, emergency services coordinator for Essex County, says affect-

ed pr operty owners need to fill out a Disaster Damage Survey Form, available at town and village of fices throughout the county.

The form asks for basic information, as well as a description of losses.

A wild child

A

national movement seeking to foster the reattachment between children and nature continues to make great strides, despite the evergrowing enticements of the digital age.

Throughout the nation, numerous organizations have been developed under the “No Child Left Inside” banner. Many of these efforts were prompted by Richard Louv’s book, Last Child in the Woods-Saving your children from Nature Deficit Disorder.

Concerns about the long-term consequences of this detachment on children’s emotional well-being, physical health and learning abilities, has been the focus of Capitol Hill hearings, state legislative action, grass-roots projects, and numerous state and federal initiatives to get more children into the woods.

However, over the years, I’ve noted a disturbing trend that has developed regarding the effort to bring children, ‘back to nature’. I am not concerned with program content, for I recognize the importance of introducing children to the outdoors.

My concern centers primarily on the focus of such efforts, which by and large, appear to have concentrated on urban and suburban kids.

Certainly, I understand that these are populations in need of greater exposure to nature, simply due to the fact they are physically further removed from it.

Green space is available in very limited quantities in the concrete confines of most urban areas, and city parks are far removed from what we consider ‘our park’.

Similar to other rural communities across America, most Adirondack towns are blessed with a multitude of wild lands, wild rivers and wild animals. These tremendous natural resources are often easily accessible for recreation, on the fringes of our villages.

Overlooked outdoors

Although a majority of the No Child Left Inside efforts have focused on suburban and urban youth, we cannot afford to overlook the need to offer comparable opportunities for our own children, in our own communities. Traditionally, rural youth remain overlooked and underserved.

Our children may grow up surrounded by a fantastic, forested abode; but without the skills to enjoy their surroundings; they will remain as detached from nature as the kids on K-Street in Washington, DC or in Compton, California.

There is a false perception that rural kids somehow know everything about the woods and waters, as if such skills are bestowed by birthright. The stereotype holds that by living in close proximity to wild lands, local youth are mysteriously imbibed through some odd sort of backwoods osmosis with incredible wildwood wisdom.

Sadly, it doesn’t work that way. Kids still have to learn about the woods and waters from someone, somehow, someway; the same way adults do.

For rural communities to remain sustainable, leaders must recognize the importance of providing local youth with opportunities to connect with their surroundings. We have always placed greater value and protection on the places we utilize and enjoy.

We must also instill within the youth an appreciation for the region’s natural resources.

Local kids deserve such an opportunity; it should not be an advantage afforded only to the advantaged.

We must realize that the current youth of our communities will be the future leaders of these communities. They should be valued as twolegged, mobile repositories of our combined culture and history, a virtual bank of shared customs and values, traditions and desires.

Consider this, as you stare down the Main Street of your own town. What would you like to pass along? What component of community

I just returned from a week-long fishing trip in the St. Regis Canoe Area where the fish hit quite well despite the torrential rain. Not surprisingly, we found water temperatures and hatches to be running a few weeks behind this year.

Take a kid fishing: Ned Kanze of Bloomingdale, hoists a nice smallmouth bass taken last summer along the Raquette River. life is the most important aspect to save for future generations? Hopefully, your community bank will not be filled with deposits that earn ‘No Interest’.

The next generation

Without a mentor, or the mentorship opportunities provided through such traditional channels as scouting or 4-H, many rural youth will continue to lack the ability and know how necessary to effectively enjoy their surroundings.

If they are disconnected from nature, they will become strangers in their own land, and they will remain so. They will suffer, and the community will be all the poorer as a result. If they don’t use it, the place will never carry any value.

I fear this may be the first generation of rural "indoor children", detached and largely disconnected from the abundance of natural pleasures readily available in their own backyard.

It should be obvious, but local youth must come to recognize the Adirondack Park is a very special place. There is a reason the region continues to attract over ten million travelers every year, and they must understand.

We must learn to put aside the negative rhetoric, and all the sorry, old, anti- enviro-maniac nonsense that has plagued the region since the 1880’s. I know, I’ll take a lot of flack for saying so; but isn’t it about time to move on and to recognize what a truly incredible place we’ve got. Need a reminder? Take a trip of 100 miles in any direction, you’ll be happy to return home.

An old saying sums the mentality up pretty well, “A man is not without honor, lest it be in his own hometown”. I believe similar sentiments holds true in the commonly voiced, local view of the Adirondacks, “A Park is not without honor, lest it be in your own backyard.”

If this type of mindset is ever to be overcome, there must be a more concerted effort, on a local community level, to instill our local youth with a greater appreciation for their surroundings. We learn to love what we enjoy, but only if and when we have the means to enjoy it.

I believe the most effective method to ensure the long-term vitality of our communities is to provide our youth with the means and methodology to fully enjoy their surroundings.

I’ll use another analogy to illustrate my point. I never knew how good a cherry pie could taste, until I tried one. Then, I knew I had to learn how to bake one.

Comparably, I never realized how many Adirondack adventures were available, until I learned to paddle a canoe, and cast a flyrod. If we provide local youth with the skills necessary to fully utilize the local woods and waters, there would be far less chance of the ‘brain drain and bright flight” threatening our communities.

Brook trout boot camp A las, I have returned from yet another successful week-long fishing trip deep within the Adirondack wilds. I timed this one perfectly with ice out and my crew was rewarded with plenty of spunky spring brookies for our effort.

This was my annual trip into the St. Regis Canoe Area, an outing that has become a tradition for half a dozen of my fishing chums and I. Last year we celebrated my Dad’s 75th birthday there.

This year we dubbed the trip “Spirit of 76” in recognition of his B-day, even though he was unable to tag along because of work commitments.

Rest assured, you were there in spirit, pop.

Probably a good thing he missed this one anyway. While we caught a ton of fish, the atmosphere was dampened by five straight days of rain. Seriously, it started pouring last Sunday and did not stop until it turned to snow Thursday. Ponds ran high and brooks and rivers were roaring.

We’d head out in our canoes just long enough to get soaked, return for dry clothes and head out again. At one point, my buddy joked that he could have stood in an ice cold shower with his pack on for a day and come out dryer.

We’re actually contemplating using that as a training exercise prior to next year ’s jaunt.

There’s a thought — brook trout boot camp. Force cadets to march 5 miles through the forest carrying a Radisson and a 60-pound rucksack full of food and fishing equipment, while swatting black flies from their foreheads without dropping the 30-packs from under each arm.

Only a select few will make it, but they’ll be rewarded with washing meals of cold Spaghetti O’s down with frozen beer after sleeping on the ground in a paper-thin bag in near sub zero temperatures during driving rain and gale-force winds.

For those who are interested, I’ll have a sign up sheet tacked to my door.

Youth bowhunting bill on governor’s desk In other outdoor news, the state is poised to ink a bill allowing junior bowhunters to hunt big game at 12 years of age with adult supervision. The current age restriction is 14 years.

This is an important piece of legislation as it has been proven that introducing our youth to the sport of big game hunting at an early age increases the likelihood of them participating for life.

I also personally believe that bowhunting is an excellent way to introduce the young to hunting as it teaches patience and safety.

The bill has been passed by the state Senate and Assembly and now awaits only the governor ’s signature to become law this big game season. Outdoor groups, such as New York Bowhunters, are urging sportsmen to write or e-mail Governor Cuomo in favor of the law. To e-mail the governor, go to http://www.governor.ny.gov/contact/GovernorContactForm.php

Youth fishing derby slated The Willsboro Fish & Game Club will host its Mary Ryan annual youth fishing derby May 15 from 9 a.m. to noon with pre-registration is at 8:30.

The event is aimed at those ages 3 to 15 and there will be prizes and refreshments. There is no cost.

For more information call Jim Hotaling at 963-7430.

Spring Break Out Ride set The Hague Fish & Game Club has scheduled its Spring Break Out Ride for Saturday, May 14. This event, which includes an ATV and horse ride, will start at the clubhouse at 9:30 a.m. The fee this year is $15 as the club members will head onto the T&T lease and back onto club property.

All ATV riders must wear helmets and provide proof of insurance. Refreshments will be available, a horseshoe tournament will start after lunch and music will be played into the night. Club officials would also like to remind members that dues are due by July 1.
