“This is how we learn,” said Brian LaFlure, director of Warren County EMS. The exercise scenario involved a vehicle striking a train at the Riverside crossing. The point of impact was the middle of the dome car, primarily involving the lower dinning car. The driver was trapped inside the vehicle, which was in danger of burning, as was the dome car itself.

Essex Co. Board of Elections to send out mail-check cards

By Keith Lobdell

NORTH CREEK

In this mock drill, paramedics were tending to bloodied and disorientated people — many on stretchers, and firemen were busy removing someone trapped in the vehicle.

But there was no accident, and there were no real victims. The apparently injured citizens were volunteers, their injuries the result of the effective application of “moulage” — make-up used to simulate various conditions. Everyone involved was participating in the first Mass Casualty Incident Drill by

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — In case you have not been able to tell by the constant, “I’m (insert name here), and I approve this message,” advertisements, there is an important election coming up soon.

The Essex County Board of Election wants to make sure that all reg-

istered voters who want to participate in the 2012 General Election and the primary elections in September can do so.

To help, the BOE is sending out mail-check cards, which are sent to registered voters with their name, voting district, polling location and current address.

Republican Commissioner Derinda Sherman said that those who receive the cards should take a moment to make sure that the informa-

tion on them is accurate.

“There are a lot of registered voters who still have their pre E-911 addresses on their voter registration,” Sherman said. “Some others have given us a post office box, but what we need is the updated, physical address of each registered voter.”

Sherman added that accuracy is needed when putting a registered voter into their proper voting district. “We have seen where someone may not have updated their address

and wee not included on the rolls of their polling district,” she said.

“That can lead to problems when someone comes in to vote and is told that they are not on the rolls.”

Any changes should be made on the card and returned to the BOE as soon as possible. The deadline date for those was Oct. 12. The mailcheck cards are yellow in color, and will include the following CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Back issues of News Enterprise now online Searchable database now available for researchers, curious readers NORTH CREEK — Weather and news does repeat itself.

Proof of this can be found in articles from the latest round of newspapers added to the Northern New York Historical Newspapers website from the North Creek News Enterprise.

A “Notice!” was placed in the June 22, 1949 issue of the “North Creek News” by the Water District Superintendent Kenneth Davis and Supervisor Charles Kenwell informing local residents about the drought situation facing them over 60 years ago.

“June 21, 1949 – To the water consumers of North Creek

Water District. The State Department of Health, Albany, has issued a warning of severe drought and possible adverse effect upon public water supplies.

“So that emergency drought conditions may be avoided Sprinkle lawns only from 7 to 9 pm. Do not wash houses down, or walks or streets. We do not know how long this will last. An increase in water consumption may over tax our supply. We are safe at present. Let us stay that way to insure good health,” the notice stated.

This is just a snippet of information found within 85 years of issues of the North Creek News Enterprise and North Creek News which are now available on the Northern New York Historical Newspapers website at http://news.nnyln.net.

These latest papers added to the site had a run from March 1924 through December 2009. Although North Creek is in Warren County, the paper also covers Essex County, and is listed under Essex on the newspaper website.

The News Enterprise covers five towns in Essex, Hamilton and Warren counties: Johnsburg, Minerva, Newcomb, Long Lake and Indian Lake.

The website is provided free of charge and maintained by the Northern New York Library Network based in Potsdam.

There are currently over 53 newspapers, including more than 2,312,000 pages on the Northern New York Historical Newspapers site. Go to news.nnyln.net for a complete listing of online newspapers, which may be searched by county or individual paper.

Historic property sees new life as North River Hobby Farm NORTH RIVER — After more than one 100 years as a family summer camp, this historic property has become a picturesque “hobby farm” and at last has family members living there full time.

Last summer, Leslie Clement and her two daughters moved from western Massachusetts to become year-round residents in North River and to fulfill the dream of creating a scenic farm selling produce as well as serving light picnic foods and Saturday night country dinners.

Clement cleared some of the 8 acres for a large scenic vegetable and flower garden, creating raised beds with soft sod paths between. She was surprised at the results of a soil analysis which showed a high degree of organic material and an almost perfect pH balance.

This spring, she built a small greenhouse where she started tomatoes, basil, squash and other warm weather crops in early spring, thereby giving them a head start before they went into the ground in late May. Cold weather crops including broccoli, lettuce, onions and potatoes where planted in early April.

In her 20s, Leslie worked as a carpenter apprentice, completing four years of training. She then went on to restore a number of historic homes in Springfield, Mass. as well as building 50 new Craftsman-style homes which were featured in the national Builder Magazine. Locally, she worked as a designer on her sister Cari Clement’s North River historic schoolhouse and restored the Cedarwood Bed and Breakfast on Schoolhouse Road before selling the property to the current owners, Sharalee and Louis Falzerano.

In the last few years, Leslie returned to her original profession as a working carpenter.

This winter, she converted a barn on her Cemetery Road property into a farm stand and kitchen, using many recycled and “already owned” materials. She received a permit from the Johnsburg Planning Board to become a farm stand selling herbs, flowers and fresh produce as well as a “food processing” permit from the New York Agriculture and Market which allows her to sell take-out food, ice cream and home canned goods.

North River Hobby Farm Also working on the North River Hobby Farm is Brandi Galusha, of Bakers Mills, who obtained an environmental science degree from Paul Smith’s College. The Galusha family has also helped out by supplying honey and maple syrup, which is sold at the farm stand, and providing two gentle older mules which for entertainment are trained to pull an antique wagon up and down the road.

Today, Leslie is harvesting produce right out of the new garden, and bringing it into the new farm stand kitchen where she creates light squash fritters, salads sprinkled with fresh herbs, potato and scallion pancakes and smoothies from the blackberries which grow wild throughout the property.

“Customers are delighted to find a new local farm which offers beautiful views of Gore Mountain and the surrounding wildflower meadows,” Leslie said. “And I’m enjoying

meeting new people and making new friends.”

Visitors can watch a flock of free-ranging chickens and ducks that roam everywhere.

For the ducks, Clement built a small pond using a recycled pump as well as hundreds of rocks dug out of the new garden, but for some unknown reason, the ducks won’t go into it. They gladly swim merrily in a small plastic toddlers pond. At night, they all return to their new chicken coop that Leslie built this spring, again using some new materials as well as some handsome 50-yearold pine boards and mahogany flooring from an “odd lot” of miscellaneous materials from Murphy Lumber. The chickens are now laying eggs that Leslie uses for cooking as well as for sale.

The land and the two camps on the property date back to 1905 when Leslie’s great-

aunt was sent from Port Washington, Long Island to North River where it was hoped that the young woman would recover from tuberculosis by breathing the fresh mountain air. (She did, in fact, recover and lived into her late 80s).

Delighted with their daughter ’s recovery, the Bird family built a camp in 1910 using leaded glass windows from a demolished Guggenheim estate on Long Island, bringing these and other building materials all the way up by train.

Traditionally, the women stayed all summer while the men traveled back and forth.

Life was leisurely. Visiting, and having visitors, was an important part of life. Cooking was done with a hand pump and wood cook stove. There are still a dozen 100-year-old apple trees planted by her great-grandfather.

“These camps and the land around them are very dear to my heart,” Leslie said. “This is our first year as a small farm, but having visitors, being outside in the fresh air and walking in the wildflower meadows are traditions which go back more than one hundred years.”

This year, Clement’s daughters — June and Emeline McCarthy — attended Johnsburg Central School.

“It was admittedly a big change from their former suburban school in Massachusetts, but they adjusted well, and I couldn’t be happier with the education they’re receiving at JCS,” Leslie said. “The teachers and staff are committed and caring.”

The North River Hobby Farm is located on an 8-acre parcel with panoramic views of Gore Mountain and a historic cemetery next door. The property is off Route 28 up 13th Lake Road to the top Cemetery Road, historically known as “Christian Hill.”

The farm is open Thursday through Sunday noon to 8, and other times by chance.

Every Saturday night, Clement serves a “farm to table” dinner buffet priced at $12 and $8 for children or seniors.

Drug testing not the answer One Nation under God

T

here is just something about a person kicked back on a couch, stoned out of his mind, giggling away at Seinfeld reruns while stuffing his face with taxpayer-funded Cheetos that makes your blood boil.

If you are living off the government, your full-time occupation should be getting off the public dime, not doing bong hits with the baby sleeping in the next room.

So, it’s pretty easy to get behind the Warren County supervisors’ efforts to require citizens relying on public assistance to submit to random drug testing.

It’s easy to agree with Horicon Supervisor Ralph Bentley’s point that workers in the public and private sectors already must submit to these tests to keep their jobs.

It’s easy to agree that people collecting taxpayer-subsidized benefits be required to do the same.

And, it’s easy to concur with Bentley that people on public assistance who are misusing public money to get high instead of put food on the table should lose the privilege.

All of that sounds completely reasonable and an effort worth getting behind.

The reason we cannot back this idea, however, is because we don’t believe Bentley or a majority of the Warren County Board of Supervisors is looking at the big picture.

Here’s the underlying question: Just who are the “freeloaders,” as Bentley put it, that the supervisors are targeting? Are they people who take advantage of the most popular benefit programs such as Medicaid, unemployment and food stamps?

That only scratches the surface of the benefits offered under the gargantuan umbrella labeled “public assistance.” At last count, there were more than 1,800 so called “entitlement” programs at the federal level.

And that’s just the federal level.

According to an analysis of 2010 Census data by George Mason University, more than one in three Americans lived in households last year that received Medicaid, food stamps or some other means-based government assistance.

When Social Security, Medicare and unemployment benefits are factored in, nearly half of the nation lives in a household that receives some kind of public assistance.

That’s more than 155 million Americans.

Are we going to drug test half of all Americans? Figuring a conservative rate of $20 per test and randomly testing all 155 million people twice a year, the cost for testing alone would be over $3 billion.

Not to mention the cost of administering the program.

So it begs the question: Where do we draw the line on who to test?

If Uncle Sam is going to require testing of those on Medicaid, Medicare, Food Stamps, unemployment and Social Security, would you also require testing of people who use programs such as Women, Infants and Children (WIC), housing assistance or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families?

That is 14 percent of the population in those three programs alone.

How about college students who receive Pell grants? How about those who get veteran’s or disability benefits? How about those who receive tax credits or farmers who receive agricultural assistance?

How about kids who receive free and reduced school lunches or seniors who receive heating assistance?

Where does it end?

I doubt even the supervisors themselves would be immune from testing if all those variables were factored in — certainly not if we were to include their extended families.

So, while the concept of testing welfare recipients to determine if taxpayer subsidies are being used as they were intended is a commendable one, the idea of drug and alcohol testing anyone who takes advantage of a public assistance program is not.

And, as we see it, you can’t segregate one group over another. The Constitution doesn’t allow it.

Perhaps a more laudable goal to get behind would be a nation of less entitlement.

Unfortunately, drug and alcohol testing would have a negligible impact on that goal at best, while costing taxpayers billions of dollars.

N

o other country in the world enjoys the freedoms and the prosperity that we do in the United States. The grand experiment, launched so many years ago, was to create a country free from tyranny with each person free to pursue life, liberty and happiness under the self-evident truth that all are created equal and endowed by their creator with unalienable rights.

The concept that we are “One nation under God” continues to be challenged by groups offended by the concept that so many hold dear. One such group is the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF). This group has skillfully used the freedoms we enjoy to create an educational, watchdog organization that is made up of “free-thinkers,” agnostics and atheists that aim to keep church and state separate through what they claim is “persuasion and education.” Recently it forced the leaders in the city of Steubenville, Ohio with the threat of a lawsuit aimed at changing their official logo because it included a silhouette of a cross from the Franciscan University Chapel. Despite the fact that the Franciscan School is one of the leading employers in the area and one of the most recognized entities in the city, the fact that they are religiously based apparently means that their contribution to the community should not be recognized.

Organizations like FFRF are now taking advantage of cash strapped communities and governments who fear lawsuits while struggling with ever-shrinking budgets.

Most recently, and without discussion, Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Douglas decided to abandon the practice of prayer before the board’s monthly meetings after reading a newspaper editorial suggesting that prayer had no place in government. The editorial was responding to recent discussions in Washington County over the wording of the prayer offered by their official chaplain, causing the New York Civil Liberties Union to threaten suit. In this case, without NYCLU even asking, chairman Douglas led the retreat to abandon prayer, instead of investigating other modifications so as to make it acceptable.

When you look at the sacrifices made by

the early citizens of this country, and those throughout the ages who fought and died for Dan Alexander these freeThoughts from doms, I have to Behind the Pressline wonder how they would have reacted to the threat of a lawsuit? The King of England, with his world-powerful army and navy, didn’t cause our early leaders to back down from what they believed to be truth, right and just, but today all it takes is a small minority armed with a few lawyers and constitutional interpretations to end longstanding traditions. We need leaders who lead the charge, not the retreat.

Make no mistake about it, respect for a supreme being is woven into the fabric of our country and is worth preserving in our government institutions as well as our private lives. What is the first thing we turn to when tragedy strikes as it did recently in Colorado or following 911? It’s our faith and hope that there is more to life than just this world we inhabit for a short time. There must be room in this country and its government for all forms of religious and spiritual beliefs: Christian, Hindu, Judaism, Buddhist, Jehovah’s Witness, Muslim, Mormons, Scientologists, Pagans, Atheists and many, many others. We should be able to agree that we each have strong feelings for our beliefs but we must respect each other ’s right to honor those beliefs as each sees fit, without hindering or overtly offending the other.

I understand and agree with the Establishment Clause that prohibits our government from establishing an official religion or showing preference among religions or between religion and non-religion. The Free Exercise Clause prohibits the government from burdening an individual’s ability to exercise his or her religious beliefs if the burden does not arise from neutral law of general applicability but instead infringes upon a particular set CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Rushton’s ‘poor man’s yacht’

V

Andy Flynn Adirondack Attic

T

he boating season for hardcore Adirondack paddlers is limited only by the thickness of the ice.

They stretch their time on lakes and rivers as far into the winter months as possible, even slicing through the frigid water during a snowstorm if they must.

The typical paddler, however, looks to the summer months to plan a day trip or camping excursion into the wilderness.

June is the beginning of cruising season in the Adirondacks.

Cruising today is more high-tech than it was a century ago, and waterway travelers have more options. Therefore, the definition of “cruising” is more broad.

The choice of vessels depends heavily on your budget, time constraints and preferences. It also depends on the size of the lake, river or pond you’ll be cruising.

Want something quiet, a boat that will reduce your carbon footprint? Try a kayak, canoe, sailboat or guideboat. Don’t care about noise or carbon? Try a pontoon boat, motorboat, jet ski or a prefabricated or homemade houseboat. Cruising can also mean taking a tourist-excursion “steamboat” ride on Lake George, the Fulton Chain of Lakes or Raquette Lake.

Let’s head back in time for a moment and look at canoe cruising and canoe camping in the 1870s and 1880s, when paddlers actually slept in their canoes.

The American Canoe Association (ACA), founded in 1880, and popular sporting magazines, such as Harper ’s Young People, heavily promoted the sport, especially on Lake George. From the earliest days of the ACA, paddling had its own culture, as it does today, with paddling clubs still active in the region.

In its Aug. 3, 1886 issue, Harper ’s Young People published a story about canoe camping. And when I say canoe camping, I mean using your canoe for an accommodation as well as transportation. One illustration shows a canoe propped up at an angle, upside down so the canoeist could sleep underneath. Another drawing shows “A CANOE CAMP OUTFIT,” with a camp stove, cooking gear and a striped tent over the canoe.

Decorative flags and a lantern were hung from the vertical tent pole, secured into the bow section of the boat.

Go to the Adirondack Museum, and you’ll see a similar canoe-camping scene in the “Boats & Boating in the Adiron-

This cruising canoe, Diana, and the accompanying tent were manufactured at the J. Henry Rushton boat shop in Canton.

dacks” exhibit. The display is called the “Poor Man’s Yacht,” and curators have written the following paragraph about this popular sport: “Enchanted by the freedom and novelty of traveling in their small ‘yachts,’ canoeists in the 1870s and 1880s made voyages of exploration through the rivers, lakes, bays and inlets of the continent ...The new sport of canoe cruising was embraced enthusiastically by men who had money and time for leisure activities and wished to escape the pollution and stress of the industrializing cities.”

Cruising canoes were designed to have sails fitted on board, and they looked like tiny yachts on the water. The cover of the Aug. 3, 1886 issue of Harper ’s Young People shows an illustration of paddlers with kayaks and cruising canoes on Lake George.

The canoe in the museum’s exhibit is the Diana, a Princess model decked cruising canoe donated by Lucien Wulsin II in 1964. The boat’s original owner, Lucien Wulsin, was a partner in the Baldwin Piano and Organ Company and a charter member of the ACA. Constructed by Canton boat builder J. Henry Rushton in 1882, the Diana is now artifact No. 1964.211 in the museum’s collection. The canoe is 14 feet long, 32 inches at the beam and weighs 134 pounds.

Nicholas Longworth, a judge from Cincinnati, designed the Princess model with Rushton. Longworth wanted to build a better craft than John MacGregor ’s original cruising canoe, the Rob Roy model.

The story of Albany dentist and ACA charter member Charles Neide proves that Longworth’s collaboration with Rushton was a success. In 1884, Neide made a 3,300-mile trip in his Princess model, Aurora, from Lake George to the

Can we build a brain?

I

n the late 1950s, a colleague and I installed a biochemistry lab for the purpose of doing research in brain biochemistry in a building devoted to the teaching of psychiatry. In the same space, another graduate student was building an electronic model of a brain according to a design published (in 1952) by W. Ross Ashby, an English cyberneticist. (Cybernetics is the study of complex systems including computers and brains.) This early electronic “brain” would change its response to a particular input from the operator if the operator “punished” it by activating a specific switch. In this way the output of the machine could be “shaped” (within the limits of its abilities) by how the operator behaved toward it. The machine thus crudely mimicked the formation of a conditional response seen in animals such as Pavlov’s dog which learned to salivate at the sound of a bell.

Today, we know far more about brains. In response to this new knowledge Dr. Henry Markram began a project entitled the “Blue Brain Project” in 2005. Using IBM’s Blue Gene supercomputer he modeled a small, well known area of the rat’s brain. His ultimate goal is to incorporate into his computer-based model everything that is currently known about how our brain is connected and how these connections are altered over time (as a result of experience). The enormity of this task can be appreciated when one realizes that there are between 80 and 120 billion neurons in each of our brains and each of these has hundreds to thousands of synapses (connections) to other neurons. Furthermore, about 60,000

Gulf of Mexico, sleeping in a tent just like the one at the Adirondack Museum.

The museum’s striped, cotton canvas canoe tent, which curators placed on top of the Diana, was manufactured in the Rushton boat shop in Canton sometime between 1883 and 1906, most likely by J. Henry Rushton’s wife, Leah Pflaum Rushton, who was a sail maker in the 1880s. In 1989, Nathaniel Wells, of Hoel Pond in Franklin County, donated the tent to the Adirondack Museum in the memory of Lott H. Wells. It is artifact No. 1989.13 in the collection. The gift includes the tent fabric and the bow and stern dowels (tent poles).

Lott H. Wells (1900-1981) was an attorney in Canton and a surrogate judge for St. Lawrence County. He bought a Princess model Rushton canoe, Old Joe, from the Ellsworth family. J. Henry Rushton had built the Old Joe canoe for Joe Ellsworth in 1884. Rushton’s son, Harry Rushton, gave Wells the tent in 1927 when he found out that Old Joe had made it to the Wells household.

Paddling cruisers today camp in tents on shore, not in their boats, probably because contemporary tents are lighter, easier to pack and more comfortable. But life was different in the Gilded Age, when the boat was all you needed. The 1890 Rushton boat catalog describes the character of paddlers like Wells, Ellsworth, Neide and Wulsin: “The cruising canoeist can be the most independent of all outers. He lives, cooks, eats and sleeps on board his craft.”

(This story was first published in Andy Flynn’s book, “New York State’s Mountain Heritage: Adirondack Attic, Volume 5.”

Andy will be signing his books from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Sat., Aug. 4 at the Hudson River Trading Company in North Creek.)

research papers are published each year in the fields relevant to brain functioning, many of which present us with new findings about how the brain functions. Dr. Markram’s desire is to be able to model the brain sufficiently well to better understand disorders of the brain and the interactions of drugs upon the brain in the hope that this will lead to more effective treatment of brain diseases.

This project has been controversial and Dr. Markram has been accused of spending a lot of money on a project that may prove impossibly complex. However, there is a chance of a sizable prize for him. The European Commission has selected his project as one of six competing for two Future and Emerging Technologies Flagship Awards to be announced this year and then funded with $1.4 billion over the next ten years.

There is an old cybernetic axiom that no machine can understand another machine as, or

by Wes Dingman more, complex than itself. If true, it would mean that we humans could not expect to ever fully understand our own brains. However, Dr. Markram’s goal appears to lie short of this and his electronic model may well enable us to glean some new and valuable insights into the workings of our minds in health and disease. W. Ross Ashby created many pithy aphorisms relevant to this effort to make brain-like devices, of which the following is an example: “Some say the first requirement is that it shall weigh [only] 45 ounces,” (the weight of a human brain).

Bird walk in Newcomb Aug. 4 NEWCOMB — A bird walk with Northern New York Audubon will be held at 9 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 4 at the Roosevelt Truck Trail in Newcomb.

This is a lovely grass and moss cov-

ered road that connects Blue Ridge Road and 28N. The trail has some brook crossings, passes through a spruce plantation, white pine forest and some young hardwoods as it goes up and down between ridges. Boreal species have been seen in the conifer sites along the trail.

The trail is hilly but easy and maybe damp so appropriate footwear is recommended. Plan on three hours of easy to moderate hiking. Meet at the Adirondack Interpretive Center, 5922 State Route 28N, Newcomb. Register at 5822000.

acation Bible School at the Sodom Community Church was lots of fun, and the children had fun learning about different Bible stories. Guess the adults had just as much fun.

I took my dad to the cardiologist on Thursday, and Mavis Miller had an appointment the same day. For lunch we went to Golden Coral and saw Mavis there, she and Avis and Cheryl. Also saw Bonnie Moody band Evie Goodspeed. Great place to eat and visit.

Debby Bacon Austin had several family members gather for her 50th birthday. Yes! Debby, we are all climbing that ladder.

The Dalaba Reunion was on Saturday and such a great day of sharing and feasting. Great when families can get together.

On Sunday afternoon, there were nine baptised at Neil and Ronda Dunkleys’ pool. Such a great day and a wonderful barbecue and fellowship after.

Yvonne Frulla and her grandsons, Ethan and Isaac have been released from the hospital's after such a terrible car accident.

Ruth Dunbar is in the Glens Falls Hospital after having a heart attack. Hopefully she will be able to return to her home at the Manor in North Creek where so many enjoy living and being with friends.

Dick and Suzy Virgil and Liane Harrison enjoy a lunch at Copperfield recently.

To help celebrate Aaron Conlon's 14th birthday, his dad, Alonzo, took him to Green Mansions golfing.

Later Aaron had family gather at his house for cake and ice cream.

Hester's History (cont.)

Maggie Rist was married a few times I understand and had one daughter, Carabel (or Claire Manfredi).

She has one daughter, Paula Johnson, I think, but she has not lived with her husband and the children. She left and went out to work. I don’t know why. Emma had a son and a daughter. I think their last name was O'Dell. Children were Gerald and Alladine. Emma died several years ago. Maggie was away from us for several years then came back among us to finish her life near her sisters. Her name was called Margaret MaGoey. She stayed for a while with my sister, Lillian Morehouse (Lily), and Lewis. She died in Glens Falls Hospital. Maggie's daughter, Carabel Manfredi and I correspond. Carabel's husband is ill and has been in hospital for several years, I think. He don't seem to improve. His name is Ralph. There are only a few of Mother's close relatives still living. One brother, Scott Russell, 95 years old, lives in Ohio. He has one son, Henry Russell, in Warrensburg. I believe one son, Lawrence (Larry), who I belive he lives with Larry and his wife in Ohio.

Enjoy each and every day.

from page 1 were injured, including five walking wounded, three people who needed assistance exiting the train, one person with a neck injury, and one person on the ground outside of the train.

The first responders on the scene were from Riverside and Chestertown. They were followed by responders from Pottersville, North Creek, Johnsburg, Garnet Lake, Bakers Mills and North River.

A portable pond was set up, and water was sprayed away from the train and car. The windshield was removed from the car, and the jaws-of-life were used to extricate the trapped driver, which was a training dummy.

All the agencies and groups involved followed the protocols and procedures that a real incident would require. Even the volunteer victims behaved realistically for the duration of the drill.

Amy Drexel, the emergency services coordinator for Warren County EMS, said they try to reproduce the conditions that responders will face

during a real incident as much as possible in order to prepare them for an actual incident. This is especially critical when responders have had no prior experience with the incident type.

Mark Ellsworth, the safety and security coordinator for Iowa Pacific Holdings (parent company of the Saratoga & North Creek Railway), explained that the Federal Railway Administration requires that they have one such drill a year. He was pleased with the level of coordination and cooperation between the various agencies involved and felt that things were handled efficiently overall.

of beliefs. But the common denominator to nearly all religious belief is the belief in a Supreme Being. We use different names when we refer to this “Being” and have established unique customs, but the belief in something larger and more universal than our own immediate environment is what this country stands to protect, not diminish. There is room for non-believers, but their rights should also not infringe on the vast majority in this country who do practice their faith in an outward manner. In turn our government officials should not have to hide their beliefs, nor should communities be restrained when demonstrating pride in their faith-based community members and the symbols they use to represent that faith.

In my opinion, a country with no faith basis, made up of non-believers, is just as intolerable as a country endorsing a single religious faith. This country’s diversity and melt-

ing pot has served us well through the centuries. Our courts need to quit attacking religion and slowly chipping away its importance in our society. Newspaper editors that call for no prayer should stay focused on the First Amendment and the freedom of speech and freedom of the press because once our religious freedoms are legislated away restrictions on those other cherished freedoms won’t be far behind. As for Mr. Douglas in Essex County, N.Y., why not consider a moment of reflection prior to board meetings, encouraging the members to consider the issues they are about to undertake and look for wisdom and guidance from a source of their own choosing?

We frequently ask for God to bless America both in song and prayer. I hope those blessings continue to provide our leaders, our courts and all Americans with the wisdom to accept and tolerate our differences while growing our love and respect for the country we all call home.

Boreal species have been seen in the conifer sites along the trail. The trail is hilly but easy and maybe damp so appropriate footwear is recommended. Plan on three hours of easy to moderate hiking.

Youth on mission to spruce up Warren County properties thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Octogenarian Pat Wassel looked out of a window at The Pillars, towards dozen of teenagers painting the siding and trim on her aging Main St. estate which hosts a variety of local enterprises in its former motel units.

“It’s wonderful what these kids are doing — I can’t believe it,” she said, watching the youths scrape and paint. “With taxes and other expenses, i can’t afford to fix the place up like this — it’s incredible to see them work like this.”

About three dozen teen members of two churches in southern Ohio, representing the mission organization YouthWorks, were at

work July 9 on Wassel’s sprawling downtown property.

From mid-June through the first week in August, about 400 teenagers — primarily from the midwestern and eastern U.S. — will have participated in the week-long work sessions in northern Warren County.

The group has been fixing up both private and public properties in the area.

YouthWorks crews have also painted cabins and cleaned up the property at Jesus Is Lord Camp in Diamond Point, landscaped at the North Creek Ski Bowl and Gore Mountain Ski Center, and fixed up the exterior of the Bakers Mills Wesleyan Church.

In the town of Chester, YouthWorks crews have helped clergy at The Priory retreat house prepare for their annual Garage Sale

Members of the Youth Works take a break at the Community Garden at the Outreach Center in North Creek.

They have been helping at the Ski Bowl Garden every Wednesday in the summer since they have been here.

In North Creek, the teenagers are working weekly to help construct a community mosaic downtown. They also conduct several visits to Tri-County Nursing Home to play games and lead exercises with the residents there.

YouthWorks, a Christian organization based in Minnesota, sends volunteers out to dozens of mission sites across North America. This is the sixth consecutive summer they’ve sent a series of mission trips to northern Warren County.

The YouthWorks group has been based locally in Warrensburg, with the girls staying overnight in classrooms at the First United Methodist Church, and the boys on the floor of the one-room Pentecostal Holiness Church. In their rare spare time, the teen volunteers were hiking, swimming, socializing and worshiping. Recreation while here has included swimming in Lake George at Million Dollar Beach, hiking though woods at The Priory, and visiting Natural Stone Bridge & Caves in Pottersville.

Pedal cabs help North Creek with transportation needs

ends in the shoulder seasons.

There is no set fee for taking the pedal cabs.

“The rider pays whatever they think the ride is worth,” San Antonio said. “The business owners did a lot of research ... and they realized after talking to all these pedal cab companies across the country that the pay-what-you-think-it’sworth model is the best model to follow because it gives the rider a sense of ownership ... Sometimes you get more than what you think you should get, and sometimes you get less, so it all works out in the end.”

Visitors to Lake George can find a pedal cab using a smartphone app called The Pedal Cab Finder. The app is available

for Android and iPhone and is an app not only for customers, but also for drivers.

“Our research showed that no other pedal cab company had an app where customers could hail a cab,” Tomb said.

“This app allows a customer to find which drivers are located nearby and then contact that driver directly. As a pedal cab driver, the app will significantly increase their ridership and therefore their revenue.”

The pedal cab finder is also available on the company’s website: www.adirondackpedalcab.com. For more information, call 955-7335.

NORTH CREEK — Rickshaws from the Adirondack Pedal Cab Company are now helping greet visitors arriving here on the Saratoga & North Creek Railway.

Most of the company’s eco-friendly fleet of 22 pedal cabs — shipped from China — are being used in the village of Lake George to help transport tourists to shopping destinations and attractions. But a few of the three-wheeled bicycle taxis have also been used in North Creek to meet visitors arriving on the train and bring them up and down Main Street.

“When people come in off the train, often they’ve never been here before,” said Michelle San Antonio who sells advertising for the Adirondack Pedal Cab Company. “Usually when people see the cab, they’re very excited about it. They think it’s a neat idea, so it’s not a hard sell to get people into the cab to take a ride.”

Johnsburg Central School teacher Steve Tomb started the company with two of his friends and fellow entrepreneurs, Mike Smith and Ken Murray. Their idea is to provide green transportation using electric-assist people-powered pedal cabs operated by a driver.

“This is a common form of transportation in many parts of the world,” San Antonio said. “Steve Tomb, when he did his teaching semester in India two years ago, this was the transportation that was so common there, and that’s where he got the idea from.”

In North Creek, the company is focusing on transportation needs during the high-traffic times on the weekend afternoons (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) when the train makes daily runs, arriving in North Creek at 12:09 and 2:34 p.m. and departing at 3:45 p.m. Operations began on Memorial Day weekend and are expected to continue through the leaf-peeping season in October.

In Lake George, riders can park their car at the Pedal Cab Company shop next to the Spare Time Bowling Lane and ride a pedal cab to the beach or into the business district. Operators may also roam territory as far south as Water Slide World at state Route 9L, and as far north as the intersection of Route 9N and Canada Street. Hours of operation are to be from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day in the summer, and week-

Sporty’s owner voices frustration over raffle regulations

By Phil Sherotov newsenterprise@denpubs.com MINERVA — A local businessman who has been providing charity for local children and other organizations brought up a number of concerns during the public comment period of the Minerva Town Board meeting on July 19.

David Beale, owner of Sporty's Iron Duke Saloon, has contributed 1,000 turkeys to the local food pantry and supported the Little League, rescue squad, fire department and the Minerva Service Organization (MSO). He told board members that he was hurt by what he felt was a lack of community support.

He told the board that a “local neighbor” had recently called the New York State Liquor Authority, which subsequently determined the raffle he held for the Essex County Toys for Kids charity, of which he is vice president, constituted illegal gambling.

“The charity’s been wiped out,” Beale said.

Beale explained that in the last seven years, Toys for Kids had provided 3,500 children with toys, and 500 children had benefited from the charity just this past year.

“Now, in the second poorest county in the state, there are many children who will not get Christmas,” Beale said.

When he first moved to the town, Beale said he remembers how he went before the Town Board and told members of all the things he planned to do for the community.

“Well, over the past eight years, I did all the things I said I would do, and I feel like all I have gotten is a kick in the teeth,” Beale said.

According to Beale, the Glens Falls resident who donated a car every year to the raffle spoke to Sen. Betty Little (RQueensbury) about the matter. Little assigned one of her aides to look into the matter and tried to help. Beale said that he was advised that the town of Minerva needed to either pass a referendum or vote at the next election to allow games of chance — which were currently illegal at present.

Town Supervisor Sue Montgomery Corey said that she has always appreciated everything Beale does for the community and noted that an item on the agenda for the meeting was a review of the games of chance laws in the town.

Beale said that while this would help other businesses and non-profits in the town, that it would not resolve the obstacles for his charity. He explained that the vast web of rules and regulations in place by the Racing and Wagering Board

of New York State was simply “mind boggling.” For example, a person must have an individual permit for every county that does not physically border the county in which the charity is based, so that Beale could not sell a raffle ticket in Saratoga County because he does not have a permit in Warren County.

Councilman Stephen McNally noted that “the only losers are the kids.”

In addition to his frustrations over the raffle, Beale noted that he had serious concerns about the Planning Board.

When he went to before that board when he wanted to build a kitchen in his establishment, he said he had never been treated so disrespectfully in his entire life. He said that the Planning Board should be reviewed because members of any board should conduct themselves professionally and treat citizens with respect and dignity. Beale said that he would like to meet with the Town Board to discuss these issues.

Corey said that she is aware that there were some issues with the Planning Board and knows that they need to be working with the Planning and Zoning Boards on how laws are implemented. She had already had a brief meeting with them and intends to follow up with them on these issues soon.

Tupper man dies after rollover in Long Lake

Some like it hot! ies with a small, six foot flyrod, than spend a day in the hot sun, slinging flies on a big river to no avail.

The Big Lake in crisis

A trout in the hand, always beats a dozen in the stream. Small native brook trout, which can be found in most Adirondack streams, offer anglers a bonanza of scenery, seclusion and good sport when the larger rivers become too warm to fish.

The heat of the summer has descended upon the Adirondacks, delivering temperatures that have soared well above 80 degrees. Combined with high humidity, these weather systems have produced sticky, lazy days and hazy mountain top vistas.

Although the majority of Adirondackers are not used to such scorching heat, they can take comfort in the evenings, when the mercury in local thermometers slips back into the 40s and a thick fog develops over the area lakes.

The summer season has finally hit full stride. Hiking trails are crowded, the local swimming holes are as full as the highways and the sweet smell of barbecues again drifts by on the late afternoon air.

Berries and brookies

Despite a distinct lack of rain this summer, most local berry patches have finally ripened across the region, and the pickin’ season is now in full swing. While this year’s crop of berries may not be as large or as plentiful as usual, the berries appear to be just as sweet as always. Fresh picked berries own a unique sweetness, that’s simply not available from any ‘store-bought’ batch. It may come from the morning dew, or from the purple fingers of little pickers. Either way, pickin’ berries is a tradition that should be shared.

While in camp last week, I enjoyed fresh blueberry pancakes each morning, and we also discovered some large patches of raspberries while hiking in the after-

noon. It’s always a pleasure to stumble upon a new stash of berries that hasn’t already been picked over, by man or beast.

Devoted ‘berry pickers’ are as tightlipped as brook trout fanatics, in their efforts to protect the location of favorite berry patches.

Anglers on the local rivers have been faced with low water levels, and rising water temperatures. In addition, the combination of brilliant, sunny days, startling water clarity and steadily diminishing oxygen levels has made for limited success.

During the heat of the summer, the best angling opportunities are often limited to the very, early morning hours, or at dusk and into the evening. While trout may remain receptive to the fly at these times, they can lose so much energy while battling an angler, that the resulting lactic acid in their system will cause them to go into shock.

As a result of such dangers to the fisheries, I will often retreat to the small, shaded mountain streams or the higher elevation ponds, at this time of year. I often abide by the old saying, “If you want more, maybe its time to desire less.”

While trout may be smaller in such waters, their surroundings typically have much cooler waters, which are far less crowded than the usual lower elevation haunts. Despite this fact, a majority of these small streams and little ponds remain lightly traveled by most anglers, which often makes it easy to find a place all to yourself.

Last week, while attending another lecture in the weekly series presented by the Essex County Historical Society, I listened to a plea for help.

The message came from Dr. Tim Mihuc, a professor and the director of the Lake Champlain Research Institute at Plattsburgh State University.

Dr. Mihuc has issued a plea to his fellow researchers and to the general public to demand the State of New York close the Champlain Canal immediately.

The urgency is necessary to prevent the pending introduction of a new invasive species know as the Spiny Water Flea from entering Lake Champlain.

The potential threat posed by the flea to the lake’s ecosystem is considerable. Once it arrives, there will be no way to eradicate it, since it will have no known predators. The fleas will disrupt the food chain and severely impact the lake’s burgeoning sport fishery, which will also have a huge impact on the regional economy.

Since Michuc issued his plea, over 100 fellow scientists, experts and lake advocates have signed the petition.

Unfortunately, as of Monday morning, the New York State Canal Corporation had refused to comply with numerous requests to close the locks.

When I spoke with DEC Region 5 spokesman David Winchell earlier this week, he explained that the NYSDEC was very concerned with the potential introduction of spiny water fleas via the Champlain Canal. However, he noted the department does not have authority to close the locks.

Once the fleas arrive, there will be no way to turn back the clock, and the Big Lake will be forever altered. It has happened before with the introduction of zebra mussels, alewives and a host of other exotic species. However, the potential negative impact on the lake’s fishery has never been so drastic. Please call your state representatives, the Champlain Canal Corporation or sign onto Dr. Mihuc’s petition, before it is too late!

RAY BROOK — On July 25 at approximately 2 a.m., the New York State Police responded to a one-car vehicle rollover accident involving a 2008 Chevrolet truck on State Route 30 in the town of Long Lake.

Investigation revealed that the driver of the vehicle, Jordan B. Amell, 17, of Piercefield, was traveling north on State Route 30 when the vehicle exited the east shoulder of the roadway and overturned several times, causing Amell to be ejected from the vehicle.

Front-seat passenger, Joshua C. Peck, 20, of Tupper Lake, was found unconscious by State Police and CPR was administered. Peck was transported by Long Lake Rescue Squad to the Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake, where he was subsequently airlifted to Fletcher Allen Healthcare in Burlington, Vt., where he later succumbed to his injuries as a result of the accident.

Amell and another passenger, Matthew J. Corrow, 16, of Tupper Lake, were also transported by Long Lake Rescue to the Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake with minor injuries. They were treated and released.

On July 27, an autopsy was performed on Peck at the Office of the Vermont Medical Examiner by Pathologist Dr. Elizabeth Bundock, who ruled the cause of death as a severe blunt force neck injury. The manner of death was ruled accidental.

The cause of the accident is currently under investigation by the State Police Collision Reconstruction Unit and Bureau of Criminal investigation.

Local students head to Sheriff’s Summer Camp JOHNSBURG — Seven youths from the towns of Johnsburg, Chestertown, and Warrensburg were chosen to attend the New York State Sheriffs’ Association Institute’s 2012 Summer Camp, according to Warren County Sheriff Nathan “Bud” York.

Johnsburg students Marianna Baker, Caleb Buck, Kassandra Johnson and Logan McKinney attended the camp, which began July 22.

The Sheriffs' Summer Camp is designed to provide a solid recreational program combined with the development of a sense of good citizenship. This will mark the 36th year of the camp's operation.

The Sheriffs' Summer Camp, which is located near Penn Yan in Yates County, is supported by the Sheriffs' Association's Honorary Members through their contributions and annual dues. This year the camp will accommodate over 900 deserving boys and girls from across New York state.

“The Sheriffs’ Summer Camp Program is designed to provide a child who ordinarily would not have the chance, an opportunity to go away during the summer,” Sheriff York said. “The primary objective is to create a positive interaction between the kids attending camp and the Sheriffs and Deputy Sheriffs who participate in the camp programs. We have found from experience during the first 34 summer camps that the kids develop a renewed respect and understanding for the men and women who enforce our laws. The deputies become their friends and in some cases substitute parents for a week.”

Throughout the week-long stay, the children observe special exhibits and demonstrations presented by Sheriffs’ Offices from across the State. Included in these presentations are D.A.R.E. presentations, boat and bike safety programs, law enforcement equipment and technical demonstrations, archery competitions for accuracy and even a talent show just for fun.

Upon completion of the kids stay, all children were awarded a diploma for their participation in a program of “Good Citizenship and Law Enforcement Studies.”

Authors debut new books at Hudson River Trading Co. Aug. 4 NORTH CREEK — Several authors will be signing new books at the Rhythm & Rhymes event from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 4 at the Hudson River Trading Company, including Lawrence Gooley and Matthew Glavin.

Lawrence Gooley Bloated Toe Publishing of Peru, N.Y., recently released two new books by award-winning author Lawrence Gooley.

The first, “25 Diabolical Adirondack Murders: The Twisted, Fiendish Deeds of North Country Killers” (272 pp, $25), covers the complete story of notable homicides committed across the region. Included are multiple crimes involving 33 victims across nine northern counties.

The second, “Adirondack & North Country Gold: 50+ New & True Stories You’re Sure to Love” (352 pp, $26), offers 51 original stories of previously unsung people, places, and events from the Adirondacks and foothills. Published here for the first time are the full stories of Eben Rexford, who wrote one of the 100 most popular songs of all time; the tragic story of world champion cyclist Harry Elkes; world champion race-walker Michael Donovan, arguably the greatest athlete in North Country history; and Albany’s Garrett Cashman, history’s second cluster balloonist. The author ’s story of Cashman earned a mention in Smithsonian Air & Space Magazine.

Matthew Glavin Author Matthew Glavin takes the true story of Joseph Bonaparte, former King of Spain, and spins a compelling story about a legend that has been rumored in the Adirondack Mountains for more than 180 years.

In “Adirondack Treasure – The Bonaparte Legacy,” Joseph Benton has a 200-year-old Bible handed down from his famous ancestor Joseph Bonaparte, the former King of Spain and older brother to Napoleon. Inside the bible is a cipher that family legend says leads to a magnificent treasure stolen from the Spanish Royal Treasury when King Joseph fled Spain.

This exciting treasure hunt blends historical facts with a terrific story and complex characters creating tension pitting environmentalist vs. developer and friend vs. friend.

The search involves riddles and ciphers and leads to murder, romance and intrigue that will keep you up at night wondering yourself . . . could the legend be true? It’s already being called the North Country’s own DaVinci Code.

The former King owned 150,000 acres surrounding what today is known as Lake Bonaparte, in upstate New York.

The story takes the reader from Lake Bonaparte to Cranberry Lake, Tupper Lake, Saranac Lake and Lake Placid.

Glavin, is retired and lives in Cranberry Lake.

“Adirondack Treasure – The Bonaparte Legacy” was published by Pyramid Publishing and distributed by North Country Books, Inc.

Piano, vocal concert in Long Lake Aug. 9 LONG LAKE _ Michele Wogaman, vocalist, and Steve Wogaman, concert pianist, will be presenting a concert together at the United Methodist Church in Long Lake at 7:30 pm on Thursday, Aug. 9.

Michele and Steve Wogaman have been making music together since 1995, when Steve joined Michele as accompanist for her private voice lessons in Louisville, Kentucky, where they were working together for New Performing Arts, a non-profit music outreach project serving rural schools and communities across the state. Michele’s previous musical study was private and avocational in New York City, while she was earning a master ’s degree in sociology from the New School for Social Research.

Married in 1999, they continued to work together professionally (and make music together privately) until 2004, when Steve was recruited into the symphony management field, first as Executive Director of the Allentown Symphony in Pennsylvania, and then as President and CEO of the Canton Symphony. During that same seven years, Michele kept running New Performing Arts as its long distance Executive Director, ultimately reaching an audience of well over a million Kentucky children with live arts programs in their schools.

The Wogamans (Steve, Michele, Pinkney, Emily and Debbie) moved to Detroit, Michigan in the spring of 2011. Steve is now the fourth president of the Chamber Music Society of Detroit, and Michele is the national program director for Artrain in Ann Arbor. Steve's parents, Phil and Carolyn Wogaman, are summer residents of Long Lake.
