Rail operator looks to buy rail line into Newcomb

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com NEWCOMB — The president of the railroad company seeking to operate its trains in the southern Adirondacks confirmed Dec. 8 it may also buy a 20-mile stretch of track extending into Hamilton and Essex counties.

Iowa Pacific Holdings is currently seeking to be Warren County’s rail operator and has garnered the support of a significant portion of county supervisors.

And Iowa Pacific president Ed Ellis told WNBZ that if the company is granted the Warren County contract it will also look to buy the privately held northern stretch of track that extends as far north as Tahawus.

“We heard that it was available and we have a previous relationship with NL Industries, so I inquired and they offered it to us and we let Warren County know,” he said. “Until we’re selected as the operator, it really doesn’t mean anything because we obviously don’t have any interest in it unless we are the operator.”

Ellis said the company is interested in preserving the North Creek-Newcomb stretch. He noted it could offer future freight opportunities. It would allow Iowa Pacific to run its freight trains to the doorstep of Barton Mines in North River.

The northern line has been unused for 20 years and is currently owned by a subsidiary of NL Industries – Kronos Worldwide. Iowa Pacific has already

Goodspeed not seeking re-election in 2011

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs NORTH CREEK — After two terms as the Town of Johnsburg’s supervisor, Sterling Goodspeed recently announced he will not be seeking re-election for a third term in 2011.

“I have enjoyed serving the people of Johnsburg and it has been my privilege,” he said. “It is now time for me to return to my law practice and my family.”

Over the past four years, Goodspeed has seen much progress and change come to the Johnsburg area. The Gore Mountain inner-connect is in the midst of building a closer relationship with the ski area and the business district and as downtown develops, Goodspeed will transition as a part of that development.

He recently moved his private law practice to a downtown location and will dedicate all his time and energy to that once his current term is up.

Goodspeed characterized his decision as a self-imposed term limit. He also served with the Warren County District Attorney’s office for two terms in 1994.

“When I took the job, I never intended to stay forever and two terms has been a rule of thumb for me,” he said.

Goodspeed feels that he has been energetic and excited throughout his two terms and has worked hard at his position.

“Other members of the community deserve a chance to serve,” he said. “I look forward to working with them and moving the region forward.”

Many of the issues that Goodspeed worked on throughout his four years as supervisor are coming to a conclusion, making now a sensible time to transition.

“The inner-connect lift opens this month,” he said. “I feel I have fundamentally changed the way Johnsburg looks at its budget — lower taxes three consecutive years in a row and stabilizing the county budget.”

Goodspeed said he looks forward to more free time to spend with his family as his oldest son prepares to graduate from high school and attend college. Serving as supervisor and Sterling Goodspeed having a family has been a difficult balance, he said.

“I want to be involved with his college search rather than circulating petitions for reelection,” he said.

Goodspeed has been a vocal advocate for the Johnsburg region his entire life and believes that his two terms were some of the most exciting times to serve in that capacity. Johnsburg has seen rapid commercial expansion, 16 new businesses, significant expansion at Gore Mountain and a smaller, leaner, cheaper government, according to Goodspeed.

“The things happening in Johnsburg will redefine our region,” he said.

“This town serves as a model for other towns in the Adirondack Park — dedicated to progress, but invested in heritage and environment.”

Jazz Trio to perform at Tannery Pond Community Center

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs.com

NORTH CREEK — The Johnsburg area is becoming like a second home to the popular Greenwich Village Jazz pianist Spike Wilner. He will appear at Tannery Pond Community Center Wednesday, Dec.29 at 7:30 p.m.

The concert is presented by Upper Hudson Musical Arts, a not for profit corporation dedicated to bringing excellent music to northern New York. Tickets are $15 for adults and $5 for students.

“Spike was inspired to play ragtime piano at a young age after seeing a docudrama on the life of Scott Joplin,” said Tom Forrest of UHMA. “This led to a life-long passion for

piano playing, ragtime and jazz music.”

Michael “Spike” Wilner was born in the city of Manhattan in 1966. He made his performance debut at the age of 14 by playing Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag at the St. Louis Ragtime Festival, then held on the Goldenrod Showboat moored on the Mississippi River. Wilner continued his music studies through high-school and participated in its award winning jazz band.

Wilner brings with him a long history of jazz music to the local stage. In 1986, he entered into the first class of the, now legendary, New School For Social Research's Jazz and Contemporary Music Program, then led by the late Arnie Lawrence. In this original class, he met and befriended many of today's prominent members of the current jazz scene. This included: Brad Mehldau, Larry Goldings, Peter Bernstein,

Jesse Davis, Chris Potter, Jorge Rossi, Sam Yahel, Joe Strasser, Roy Hargrove, John Popper (of the Blues Travelers), Eric Schenkman (of the Spin Doctors) David Grausman and others.

In 1994, Wilner began to work a regular gig at Smalls Jazz Club. This became his permanent musical home and eventually led to his current position there as a partner and manager of the club. He now spends most of his time at Smalls and still plays there regularly on Sunday evenings with his group.

Wilner will be accompanied by Lennie Cuje’ on Vibraphone and Jon Roche on Bass. For more information, visit www.upperhudsonmusic.org or call 681-1715.This concert is supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency.

The battle for Cuomo’s heart and mind heats up in Adirondacks

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com With Andrew Cuomo less than a month out from moving into the Governor ’s mansion, the battle for his heart and mind regarding Adirondack policy is heating up.

On Dec. 7, Karen Moreau — president of the newly formed property rights advocacy organization, the Land and Liberty Foundation — lambasted the region’s state regulatory agencies in a New York Post op-ed.

In the piece, Moreau asserts Adirondack Park Agency and state Department of Environmental Conservation regulations are strangling the life out of Adirondack communities.

She said Dec. 9 although the timing of the property rights onslaught wasn’t intended to correlate with the lead-up to Cuomo’s inauguration, the advocacy and defense fund organization hopes it will help direct his agenda as it relates to the park.

“It really wasn’t intended. It just happened to come about that way,” she said. “Although the timing is very fortuitous.

Obviously, from the tone of my op-ed, myself and others are hoping that Governor-elect Cuomo will take a very close

look at what is happening in the Adirondacks.”

Titled “Adirondack Blues,” the op-ed reiterates the claim the APA is under direct control of green groups and has instituted a “de facto ban” on development in the park.

And she hopes the public campaign will get the governorelect’s ear.

“I do believe Cuomo is a serious and hard-working person and I have to assume he is paying very close attention to what is happening in the Adirondacks,” she said. “The Adirondacks are somewhat a reflection of a good portion of upstate New York. Although the Adirondacks — in comparison — frankly, is on life support.”

Moreau even claims the state’s failed effort to sell Camp Gabriels is a direct result of potential developers fearing the APA’s “wrath.”

And she thinks change is needed within the regulatory agencies, particularly the APA. “New leadership is needed. The person has to be someone who cares about the individual who is standing before them, and frankly, gives as much deference to them as they would any environmental organization,” she said. “I know I’m not alone in my opinion that a number of environmental organizations have exerted a great degree of influence over the

agency.”

For his part, Cuomo has pledged to slash the size of state government and continue Gov. David A. Paterson’s review of state regulatory bodies.

Regional officials, like Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Farber, have also pitched ideas to grab Cuomo’s attention. Farber ’s concept would have local governments and green groups team up in a show of a unified front and lobby Albany for Adirondack economic reform.

At the same time, green groups are scrambling to sway Cuomo’s opinions of Adirondack policy.

Brian Houseal is executive director of the Adirondack Council.

“We are preparing letters to the Cuomo transition team and the governor-elect himself,” he said. “Our big objectives are to reform governance and policies for the park so there is environmental protection, but also economic development. And we need policies that will make government more cost efficient.”

Cuomo’s transition team includes several members of the environmental community and Republican state Senator and vocal APA critic Elizabeth O’C Little, R-Queensbury.

North Creek Quilters featured in Widlund Gallery exhibit

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs.com

NORTH CREEK — The Widlund Gallery at Tannery Pond Community Center will welcome local favorites to showcase their quilts during the month of Jan. The North Creek Quilters (NCQ) organization is proud to announce its exhibit, "Binding a Community", Jan. 3 - Jan. 27.

“The colorful and intricate quilts will also bring along a history lesson,” said Elise Widlund of the Widlund Gallery.

“Three generations of quilts and quilters will be shown as well as examples of wearable art, such as a quilted "raggy” jacket.”

Recently, NCQ made and raffled a queen-size Adirondack log cabin quilt. During the past year the group has collaborated on creating a queen- size log cabin quilt. All proceeds benefited the North Country Outreach Center. Previously,

NCQ has donated proceeds from its creations to Town of Johnsburg Library and to Johnsburg Historical Society.

Recent quilting projects have included paper-piecing, a "Stack 'n Whack" quilt, a variation of "Trip Around the World," a strata technique quilt, and braid table runners.

Plans for Winter-Spring 2011 are a “raggy” quilt taught by Susan Therio, a "Cathedral Window" quilt taught by Dana Hall, and a quilt with the X-Box pattern taught by Linda Bennett.

The group welcomes quilters of all skill levels. Meetings are scheduled for the first Saturday of each month at 10 a.m. at North Country Outreach Center. For further information contact President Kathy Maiorana, maiorana@frontiernet.net, Vice President Betty Maita, dmaita@frontiernet.net, Treasurer Susan Therio, stherio1@frontiernet.net, or Secretary Natasha Gadway, natashamg@frontiernet.net.

Study: Hospitals drive local economies State cuts threaten health care?

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — A report published this week by a statewide health care advocacy organization declares hospitals are some of the most powerful economic engines for communities in the North Country.

The study shows that statewide, hospitals employ nearly 687,000 New Yorkers and generate $108 billion in economic activity, accounting for 9.4 percent of the “gross state product.”

Area leaders and hospital officials said they plan to cite the report as they seek to influence the policies of Governorelect Andrew Cuomo when he takes office in January.

William Van Slyke of the Healthcare Association of New York State said a breakdown of the numbers in his group’s report indicates that North Country hospitals account for more than 12,000 jobs and generate $1.4 billion in economic activity.

“Hospitals, in the whole of the North Country and across the state, are incredibly powerful economic anchors that are at risk.”

Van Slyke said the public understands the value of hospitals when it comes to delivering critical services — but often taxpayers and lawmakers overlook the formidable economic impact of health care facilities in rural communities.

“Especially in communities up in the North Country where, aside from some of the state Department of Correctional Services facilities, hospitals are probably the biggest employers in the entire region,” he said.

In the Tri-Lakes region alone, the Adirondack Medical Center employs roughly 920 people and has an economic impact estimated at $120 million annually.

In the Glens Falls region, Glens Falls Hospital is one of the two largest employers.

And Hudson Headwaters Health Network, which has 11

branches, is in many of its host communities the largest local employer.

While hospitals enjoy lead-dog status in the North Country’s economic hierarchy, they’re also one of the state’s biggest expenses.

In just three years, health care providers in New York have suffered upwards of $5.3 billion in Medicaid cuts and an additional loss of $13 billion in federal Medicare funding.

Van Slyke said hospitals and health care providers are starved for capital and becoming increasingly fragile.

“If the legislature and the incoming governor decide they’re just going to keep cutting across the board, it’s going to imperil these facilities and it’s going to result in lost health care services for sure,” he said. “But it also results in lost jobs. That means more people leaving the area and less opportunity. That’s something we need to be aware of.”

State Assemblywoman Janet Duprey said she doesn’t need to be told how important hospitals are to the communities she represents. The Republican’s district spans across northern New York and is home to three major health care facilities — the Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake, the Alice Hyde Medical Center in Malone, and CVPH Medical Center in Plattsburgh.

Duprey bristles at the mention of Gov. David A. Paterson, who orchestrated major health care cuts in his 2010 executive budget.

“For whatever reason, the Paterson administration did not understand the issues surrounding health care in the North Country,” she said.

She adds that lawmakers downstate don’t fully appreciate the complexities of providing health care in the rural north.

“We continue to fight that battle of having people from the city — particularly New York City, but other metropolitan areas as well — understand that we have 50 to 60 miles between our hospitals,” Duprey said. “It’s not as easy as if

somebody has an issue with one hospital, they can walk across the street or a few blocks down the road to another and get service.”

But despite a rough stretch for the health care industry, officials are expressing a cautious optimism that Cuomo will take a different approach to health care funding as he begins drafting his first executive budget early next year.

Duprey said Cuomo appears to be giving the North Country a louder voice in the conversation.

“I’m pleased that he’s included some North Country people on his transition team,” she said. “I think the message will come across that at least he’s listening to us, so much as he’ll consider the people that get appointed to positions and what their input is and where they stand on issues.”

Van Slyke said Cuomo has called for a fundamental redesign of the state’s Medicaid system. The Healthcare Association of New York State thinks Cuomo is right — and a task force of the group’s membership has sent the incoming governor a body of specific recommendations aimed at reforming the system.

Duprey noted the battle over health care funding in the North Country fits into a larger conversation regarding the region’s reliance on the state for fiscal solvency — a conversation that includes parks, visitors centers, prisons, and schools.

That’s why Duprey hopes Cuomo isn’t just paying lip service to the North Country — she said he needs to “walk the walk” come January.

ADK Museum receives national recognition from AAM

By Lindsay Yandon 2010.

lindsay@denpubs.com BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — After finishing another successful season, The Adirondack Museum has achieved accreditation from the American Association of Museums (AAM), the highest national recognition for a museum. Accreditation signifies its excellence to the museum community, to governments, funders, outside agencies, and to the museum-going public.

For almost 40 years the accreditation program has served as the field's primary vehicle for quality assurance, self-regulation, public accountability and earns national recognition for a museum for its commitment to excellence in all that it does. The Adirondack Museum was honored for its governance, collections stewardship, public programs, financial stability, high professional standards and continued institutional improvement.

Developed and sustained by museum professionals, the accreditation program reflects, reinforces, and promotes best practices, institutional ethics and the highest standards of museum operations.

The Adirondack Museum first received AAM accreditation in 1973 and was re-accredited in 1985, 1998 and now in

“We are very honored that the Adirondack Museum continues to be recognized for meeting the highest standards of museum practice,” said Interim Director Michael Lombardi.

“The accreditation validates the ongoing work of our staff and points the way towards continued success in the future.”

Of the nation's estimated 17,500 museums, 775 are currently accredited. The Adirondack Museum joins the Albany Institute of History and Art, The Strong Museum, The Long Island Museum of American Art, History, and Carriages as well as eight other history museums accredited in New York State.

“Accreditation assures the people of the Adirondacks that their museum is among the finest in the nation,” said Ford

W. Bell, president of AAM. “As a result, the citizens can take considerable pride in their institution, for its commitment to excellence and for the value it brings to the community as a whole.”

Accreditation is a rigorous process that examines all aspects of a museum's operations. To earn accreditation, The Adirondack Museum conducted a year of self-study, then underwent a site visit by a team of peer reviewers. AAM's Accreditation Commission, an independent and autonomous body of museum professionals, reviewed and evaluated the self-study and visiting committee report to determine whether the museum should receive accreditation.

While the time to complete the process varies by museum, it took roughly three years.

The Adirondack Museum will open for its 54th season May 27, 2011 and will introduce two new exhibits - "The Adirondack World of A.F. Tait" and "Night Vision: The Wildlife Photography of Hobart V. Roberts" as well as offer a full schedule of programs, special events, and activities for families.

"The grant from the Linda and Sarah Cohen Fund will support the museum's ongoing commitment to offer exhibits, programs, and visitor experiences at the highest level of quality," said Sarah Lewin, director of Institutional Advancement.

The poem expresses the human longing for rest, quiet and peace and the confidence that surely the stars will remain constant and shine light upon our darkness. These hauntingly beautiful words have been an inspiration to me. When I close my eyes, I can picture the scene. I am stunned by the possibility of perceiving stillness as music to my ears, and intrigued by the metaphor of finding the crystal of peace.

If I venture out of doors on a cold, crisp night when the snow is on the ground and the stars are shining brightly, I can’t help but be filled with awe and wonder, realizing my smallness in relation to the vastness of the galaxy.

Surely we have the responsibility to take care of our part of the planet — to not litter or destroy it through careless consumption. Surely we can strive for peace, starting in our small corner of this earth and then radiating outward.

My wish for you this holiday season is that you will never cease to search for that crystal of peace.

E

ven though November 2010 was cooler than normal, there was very little snow. The month was notable for the string of clear sunny days from Dec. 9 to 16. This is unusual for November as it is most often cloudy and damp.

The average high was 43.0 degrees and the average low was 25.5 degrees, giving us an average of 34.2 degrees — 1.2 degrees below normal and the fifth coldest on record. The coldest November was in 1996 when the average was 31.1 degrees and the warmest was in 1999 when the average was 40.2 degrees. The highest temperature of 55 degrees was recorded Nov. 13 and the coldest of 18 degrees, was recorded Dec. 28. There were 923 degree days bringing our seasonal total to 1799.5.

Melted precipitation for the month was 3.41 inches, only 0.32 inches below normal. This brings the yearly total to 46.93 inches — 7.96 inches above the yearly average of 38.97 inches. This should keep wells and streams in good supply for the winter.

Measurable precipitation fell on 10 days with the greatest amount of 1.01 inches, measured Nov. 17. Snowfall was only 1.5 inches — 3.8 inches below normal.

The river reached its highest level of 4.84 inches Nov. 19 and its lowest level of 4.06 inches Nov. 16.

E-town teen receives the gift of life

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com BOSTON, Mass. — Someday, they would love to have the chance to say, “thank you.”

That’s what Walter “Smitty” Marvin said a couple of days after his son Brock received a long-awaited new heart in the early morning hours of Dec. 11.

“We would love to meet them and just have the chance to thank them,” said Marvin about the family who lost the loved one whose heart now beats for Brock. “You just hate to think about what they are going through, but you hope that they would look at Brock and see that their decision or the decision of their loved one is the reason why he is living today.”

Marvin said the only way the family would get that opportunity is if the donor family wanted to find out where the organ went.

“We’ve discussed that, but there is a very stiff protocol and the hospital can’t tell you anything,” said Marvin. “If the donor family opts that they want to find out, then there is a whole set of practices that they have to go through and it is all run through the hospital.”

Marvin said it had been an exciting week for families of patients at the Children’s Hospital in Boston, Mass., as two other children waiting on the transplant list also received the news they had been waiting for.

“The night before, a 21-month old from Malone received a transplant, and a teenage girl got one a few days earlier,” Marvin said. “The tempo has really been up here because there had been a dry spell for heart transplants and now they have had three in 10 days.”

Brock’s surgery was performed by Dr. Betsy Blume, and Marvin said the procedure went smoothly.

“It all happened so quickly once we found out the heart was on its way,” said Marvin. “They brought him in around 3:30 a.m. on Saturday to prep and they made the incision into his chest at about 4:50 a.m. They had him on an external pump at about 5:30 a.m., the heart was in the hospital at about 5:45 a.m. and once they had it in, it started beating on its own. Everything really went flawlessly — it was a really perfect case scenario.”

Marvin said he was in the Intensive Care Unit when his son first woke up after the surgery, and was surprised by the first thing he heard.

“Brock said, ‘Do they have the heart put in yet,’” said Marvin. “I told him that it was and that the surgery was over.”

Marvin said Brock was also trying to get used to a new reality, one without a defibrillator attached to his heart.

“We were moving him in the bed and he started shaking,”

said Marvin. “I asked him what was wrong and he said that he did not want the defibrillator to go off again. I looked over at the monitors and told him that his heart rate was at 80 and he didn’t even have a defibrillator in him any more.

Even though his heart is in, his brain hasn’t figured it all out yet.”

Marvin said as of Dec. 14, Brock was expected to remain in ICU for two more days and eventually would be able to leave the hospital.

“We will get an apartment here for about six weeks so they can continue to monitor him and make sure that the heart is not being rejected,” said Marvin. “At around eight weeks, if all goes well, he should get the green light to come home and would only have to go down once a week for testing.”

Marvin said while they had been waiting for the transplant, they got a chance to meet almost everyone in their wing at the Boston Children’s Hospital.

“You get to know all of the other families and you all get close,” said Marvin. “Someone gets a heart, and everyone is so happy for that person. You know that they have received that gift and that you are that much closer to yours.”

Marvin said the joy he felt when he saw others receive their needed heart was something that helped him after his son’s surgery.

“You walk by the rooms with people still waiting and you almost feel guilty that your son got one,” said Marvin. “But then you remember how you felt when you saw someone else receive a transplant and you know they feel the same way.”

Marvin added the joy he and others felt was only possi-

Brock Marvin, 17, underwent a successful heart transplant surgery Dec. 11 at the Children’s Hospital in Boston, Mass. Marvin had been diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy, a genetic disorder that caused his heart to grow four times the size of a normal heart and pump blood at a rate significantly lower than the average person.

Doctors are now optomistic that he will have a full recovery.

ble because someone made the choice to be an organ donor.

“I really want to stress to people how important it is to be an organ donor,” said Marvin. “It means so much to so many people, including our family.

Rail Continued from page 1 confirmed that Kronos would sell the line and is currently negotiating an asking price.

The line is currently leased by the Essex County Industrial Development Authority and off the tax roles.

IDA co-Executive Director Jody Olcott said she is currently unaware of any deal in the works.

Warren County Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe recently told WNBZ that Iowa Pacific’s proposal

– which includes commuter service to and from Corinth – is very attractive.

The Warren County board just recently cut all ties with its former sightseeing train operator, the Upper Hudson River Railroad.

Ellis said he has been in contact with Barton Mines and the discussions about freight service have begun.

“I can’t really say that we have a firm plan for it other than we believe it ought to be preserved. We have spo-

ken with Barton Mine,” he said. “If we were going to load product, they would want to load it at their facility in North Creek, which is adjacent to the line.”

Barton Mines spokesman Jim McAndrews confirmed that talks between the two companies are under way.

But he cautioned that nothing concrete has been hammered out.

“We have no immediate plans,” McAndrews said.

“But we would like to see

the tracks preserved because it might accommodate potential future products.”

McAndrews noted that the garnet mine is currently trying to develop a market for its tailings and other byproducts of its operation.

Iowa Pacific currently operates numerous freight and commuter railroads, largely in the American Midwest and Southwest.

8 - NEWS ENTERPRISE • NFL FOOTBALL PICKING CONTEST

By Tom Henecker tom@denpubs.com

N

othing like a little stadium roof collapse to add excitement to the NFL weekend. Big Blue got to see some lovely airports throughout the mid-West en route to a game in Detroit against Minnesota. Whew. At least they took care of business when they got there.

I don’t mind telling you all: I hate Tom Brady. No, really, I hate him. In fact, I hate his entire team. And might as well throw in the whole coaching staff as well. How is it they can look this good at this time of year with a roster of unknowns?

I just really don’t want them going to another Super Bowl. I have in-laws that will be unbearable.

Oh, by the way, Dallas sucks. Just thought I should mention that.

What really matters, though, is this weekend’s New York Football Giants vs. Beagles. It’s for all the marbles. Winner take all. The whole shebang. NFC East supremacy. It’s kind of important, too.

Poor Michael Vick. He’ll be knocked out in the first series and the Giants will take their rightful place atop the division.

Week 14 was a pretty strong week overall for our pickers, with Patsie-loving Sam Grant gaining a little ground on John Gereau, who holds onto a three-game lead. But it was our own Ed Coats who topped all pickers with a 14-2 record for Week 14.

SATURDAY December 18, 2010

Many big games coming up this weekend with playoff implications. In addition to the Jints game, Thursday’s San Francisco at San Diego, and Sunday’s Jacksonville at Indy should be great games with a lot at stake. I’m taking both home teams, but wouldn’t be shocked either way. I also would love to see the Jets pummel Pittsburgh, but watching Gang Green the last two weeks makes me think their playoff hopes are getting pretty slim.

Fear of the Forest A

lthough a majority of current day civilization has learned to appreciate the benefits of nature and the natural world, it wasn’t always the case. From the earliest of times, societies have sought protection from the dangers of the natural world through the telling of tales and legends that were intended to ingrain children with a basic fear of the woods.

From Goldie Locks to Little Red Riding Hood to Sleepy Hollow’s Headless Horseman and continuing through such movies as Deliverance, the Blair Witch Project and The Village, mankind has conditioned children to fear the woods throughout the centuries.

Admittedly, the woods can be a mysterious and foreboding place and at times, it is only natural to fear what we hear but can’t see, especially at night. However, our greatest fears are the noises that come from creatures unknown. Often, these are the creatures that rest comfortably in our collective imagination.

In our mind’s eye, the forest conceals a host of wild animals, witches, demons, and a host of serial killers that lurk in the darkness, awaiting the innocent. This process plays on fears that already exist in most of us, it is also known as the boogieman complex.

Increasingly, American parents have grown afraid of letting their children to play in the yard, bicycle to school or hike in the woods, even though such irrational fears are not supported by the evidence or statistics. For many, the woods are a wild place that is unbound by man-made rules or codes. Sadly, many people live in fear of these wild and untamed elements.

The forest can conceal a variety of threats, both actual and imagined. Although it is a place where a man or child can become lost, never be found again, such incidents are a rarity. An unfounded fear of the forest is known as hylophobia and it affects far more people than most of us would ever expect.

Nyctohylophobia is the much more common fear and foreboding of journeying in the woods at night. It is a sense that you are not alone and it is a fear that can be debilitating

for some. It is an affliction that extends far beyond the typical shivers and goose bumps that are expected after an evening of ghost stories around the campfire.

It is understandable that we have a greater fear of the unknown, than of the things that are known to us.

An overzealous imagination can create monsters far beyond any known to exist in the natural world, and as society continues to spiral into the depths of natural detachment; it is easy to understand the growing fear of the woods. We fear most, the things we least understand.

While hylophobia is largely an unfounded fear, there are at least a few psychological afflictions with a rational basis in the Great North Woods. These maladies would have to include Agrizoophobia, a fear of wild animals and Entomophobia, a fear of insects. Anyone spending time in the Adirondacks during black fly season could easily justify becoming an Entomophobiac.

Likewise, many local residents surely suffer from Chionophobia, at some point in their life.

Around these parts, Chionophobia, an intense fear of snow is an understated reality, at almost anytime of the year.

Time in the woods is better for the classroom Despite concerns over a growing fear of the woods, a recent study conducted for the Association of Fish & Wildlife Agencies offers ample evidence to alleviate such apprehensions. Researchers funded through a Multistate Conservation Grant of the Sport Fish and Wildlife Restoration Program, uncovered a

wide range of benefits that can be attributed to spending time in the open air and learning outside.

The study suggests “a meaningful engagement with nature as a child has a direct correlation with involvement in environmental issues in the future, which should be of great interest as communities look for the next generation of environmental leaders.”

Additional research reveals that “people who participate in outdoor activities tend to be happier than those who do not and that active living may lead to a healthier lifestyle, based on the Leisure Trends Index” while “spending time in the open air and learning outside has also proven to increase students’ ability to think creatively and improve problem-solving skills.”

The study also found that “students who play and learn in outdoor settings perform better on tests, have higher grade point averages (GPAs), cause fewer classroom disruptions”. It also found considerable evidence that “outdoor adventure programs can impact positively on young people’s attitudes, beliefs and self-perceptions.”

In general, the research indicates that among the benefits of outdoor education is an increase in self-concept domains such as independence, confidence, self-efficacy, and self-understanding.

Additional benefits include “enhanced psychological well-being; an increased ability to overcome challenges; a positive impact on leadership competencies; enhanced decisionmaking skills, general problem solving com-

petencies, academic achievement and academic self-concept. “ Time spent outdoors also resulted in “an increase in personality dimensions such as assertiveness, emotional stability, achievement motivation, internal focus of control, and maturity and reductions in aggression and neurosis.

It was also shown to improve mental strength and interpersonal dimensions such as social competence, co-operation and interpersonal communication skills.”

Regarding aspects of health, learning, and lifestyle, the study indicates that outdoor skills programs help to promote lifelong physical, emotional and spiritual well being.

According to the report, “a growing body of studies suggests that contact with nature is as important to children as good nutrition and adequate sleep: time spent outdoors correlates with increased physical activity and fitness in children; exposure to green space reduces crime, increases general wellbeing and the ability to focus; children as young as five have shown a significant reduction in the symptoms of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) when they are engaged in outdoor activities in natural settings.”

The positive benefits that the research reveals should offer ample evidence for students, and faculty to address professed fears of the forest.

Welcome home, Molly and Ben!

By Colin Wells denpubs@denpubs.com WESTPORT — For the last year and a half, Molly Rascoe, a senior at Westport Central School, has traveled to Burlington three times a week for dialysis. In July 2009, Molly was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease that impaired her kidney function, and she needed the regular blood treatments in order to survive.

Now, she has every reason to hope that those long hours hooked up to the dialysis machine are a thing of the past.

On Dec. 1, Molly underwent a successful kidney transplant at Burlington's Fletcher Allen hospital.

Molly's new kidney began functioning almost immediately, and her recovery has gone smoothly. She came home Dec. 5, two days earlier than expected.

She and her family are overjoyed at the successful outcome, though Molly's doctors caution that there is still a chance that her body might reject the kidney.

“The next two to three weeks will be critical,” Brad Rascoe, Molly's father, said shortly after Molly returned home.

“After that, the chances of rejection go down. We're hoping for the best, but we have to be very careful for a few weeks.”

To lessen the chance of rejection, he explained, Molly is being given medication to suppress her immune system.

“She can go to a movie, but if someone’s coughing near her she'll have to leave. She's looking forward to seeing her friends again, but she won't be able to go back to school for at least a month or so.”

Molly, whose positive attitude throughout her illness has impressed everyone who knows her, has her eyes on the slightly longer term. Westport girls shine at basketball, and Molly, a dedicated athlete, is no exception.

“I'm going to be on the team,” she said, smiling. “I'll probably sit on the bench, but my goal is to play in a game before the end of the season.”

If Molly does get to play in a game, it's likely that Ben Sudduth will be sitting in the bleachers cheering her on. Sudduth, whose own daughters Mallory and Megan attend WCS with Molly and her sister Emily, donated the kidney that's now working inside Molly.

Sudduth has been a volunteer firefighter and EMT for decades, and is currently captain of the Westport Emergency

Squad. He still remembers a call to the Rascoe home when Molly suffered seizures from her illness in August 2009.

He said that after years of focusing on just keeping peoThis story was first ple alive and getting them to the hospital, “I'm grateful posted online at 5 that now I've had a real p.m., Dec. 2 on chance to actually fix somebody.” www.Denpubs.com “For the rest of my life, I'm going to feel good about doing this,” he continued. “I highly recommend that people think about becoming a donor.”

People are born with two kidneys, he pointed out, but only need one. Studies have proven that kidney donors are just as healthy and live just as long as those who keep both kidneys.

“There's thousands of sick young people waiting for kidneys. Most anyone can do this,” he said.

He urged those interested to call Kate Devine, Fletcher Allen's pediatric transplant coordinator, at (802) 847-4291.

The day before the transplant, the school and the community gathered in the school gym for an emotional sendoff hosted by Molly's fellow seniors. Each elementary class presented Molly with a “Get Well Soon” card, and wellwishers had a chance to express public appreciation for Ben Sudduth's selfless act.

Molly's cause was taken up by a number of local organizations, including the Christopher Emmet Hallowell Fund, the Adirondack Polo Club, the Pull Tabs for Molly campaign, the Westport Education Association, and the Westport Fire Department and Emergency Squad. In Vermont, Molly and her family benefited from the assistance of Ronald McDonald House and Child Life of Vermont Childrens' Hospital.

“First and foremost, we're so grateful to Ben,” Brad Rascoe said after Molly was home. “We've had such strong support from the whole community, and he was the icing on the cake. Molly's attitude from the beginning has been that she just did what she needed to do. But with the tremendous amount of support that we've received from people in Westport and neighboring communities, that made it so much easier.”
