BLACK FLY CHALLENGE

This Week IN LONG LAKE

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com NEWCOMB — Voters head back to the polls Tuesday, June 18 to decide the fate of the Newcomb and Minerva school budgets, which failed to pass the first time on May 21.

If the budgets donÍ t pass, the school boards will be required to adopt contingency budgets, which would mean even more cuts.

Since May 21, school board members and administrators in Newcomb and Minerva have been reducing their budgets and getting tax levy increases down to levels they think voters will approve.

Tough choices were made.

Positions were eliminated.

Extracurricular were activities removed.

In Newcomb, the School Board cut $405,470 in spending from the originally proposed plan but kept the tax levy increase above the state mandated cap of 6.94 percent.

On May 21, only 52 percent of voters checked “yes” on the ballot (111 yes and 104 no), falling short of the 60 percent supermajority needed to override the state tax levy cap.

Here are the revised budget numbers: •Proposed budget (June 18): $5,417,838 •Proposed tax levy (June 18): $4,070,969 •Tax levy increase (June 18): $459,461 or 12.72 percent •State tax levy cap: 6.94 percent increase •Current budget: $5,274,469 •Current tax levy: $3,611,508 CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

Long Lake hires new events coordinator

SARATOGA SPRINGS — After a volley of shots was fired into the air by a military honor guard, Thurman resident Kathy Templeton took a box containing her father’s ashes and solemnly placed them in a memorial wall located in the Gerald Solomon Saratoga National Cemetery.

Moments before, a group of four Marines from Massachusetts, in full formal uniforms, had unfolded an American flag, held it aloft, and refolded

it „ all in crisp ceremonial motions. Then one of the Marines knelt in front of Templeton, presenting the flag to her for posterity — while tears welled up in TempletonÍ s eyes.

Her father, U.S. Marine Staff Sergeant Wayne B. Smith, of Johnsburg, had received full military honors in the memorial ceremony. It was conducted by Warrensburg American Legion Post 446 Adjutant Gene Pierce, who is also commander of the Warren County American Legion. The service was attended by about a dozen members of the Saratoga National Cemetery Honor Guard.

As cemetery workers sealed off the interment com-

partment with a stone door to be engraved with his name, Templeton reflected on this formal ceremony, which she had sought for years on behalf of her father.

“I feel complete relief that he’s finally at rest and he got the recognition that he so deserved,” she said.

Pierce, his Legion Post and a Warren County veterans’ official made it happen, resolving an unfortunate situation.

Circumstances, including an unsettled estate, lack of a will and depleted family finances had combined CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

wrong box,” Johnsburg received $97,000. Now FEMA wants the excess money back and has contacted the Town Board regarding repayment options.

Board Secretary Cherie Ferguson assured the board that she double-checked with FEMA to make sure the amount was correct, and was assured that it was.

Councilman Peter Olesheski voiced concern over the fact that the error was on FEMAÍ s end and wondered if Johnsburg should

be responsible for paying the money back. No one knew at the time if it was possible to challenge the decision or what the process might be for doing so.

Though several options for repayment were discussed, no official action was taken regarding FEMA’s request.

The next Johnsburg Town Board meeting will be held at 7 p.m.

Tuesday, June 18 in the lower lobby of the Tannery Pond Community Center.

WEVERTOWN – Of the issues tackled by the Johnsburg Town Board at their June 4 meeting at the Wevertown Community Center, the most important went beyond the town itself. Between a proposed speed limit change and a funding mixup with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Johnsburg is up against both state and federal bureaucracy.

The proposed speed limit change would amend the 55 mph section of State Route 28 „ a stretch from the current 45 mph limit sign north of StewartÍ s past the Ski Bowl Park and the nursing home „ to a 45 mph zone. The desire for the change is nothing new. Board members said they are especially concerned given the number of car accidents on Route 28 in the past, but speed limit changes have to go to through the state. And the state has rejected every request Johnsburg has sent so far.

Town Supervisor Ron Vanselow introduced a motion to send in a new request, this time with the support of state Sen. Betty Little.

Councilman Gene Arsenault wondered why there hasnÍ t been an opportunity for dialogue with the state on this issue. Vanselow noted that the criteria to make the change are very strict.

“Either you meet the criteria or you don’t,” Vanselow said, noting that the process can “get political.” He hopes Little’s support will be enough to surmount those politics and give the town’s request the headway it needs to be approved.

Board members unanimously approved the motion to submit another request.

The latter half of the meeting was dedicated to a grievous error in FEMA funding from 2011/2012, one that could cost Johnsburg $57,000. The town originally requested money from FEMA to repair roads damaged during Hurricane Irene in 2011. However, due to what was explained as ñ a FEMA employee checking the

ROOST releases Essex County tourism findings

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — People who come to Essex County do so for the outdoors activities, especially hiking.

That is what the 2012 Leisure Travel Study, conducted by the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST), found after collecting data from over 4,000 returned surveys. ñ In the past year, we had 101,998 new contacts through market, websites or other means that were the trackable leads,” ROOST Director Jim McKenna told members of the Essex County Economic Development Committee June 10. “We sent out surveys to over 30,000 people and we received over 4,000 responses, which is very high.”

McKenna said that the study showed marketing efforts to the county were working, as tourists spent $82 for every occupancy tax dollar spent on marketing.

“The average spent by each party that came to the county was $328,” he said. “That also meant that for every dollar that we spent in occupancy tax revenue on marketing, the county received $3.80 in revenue.”

Other key indicators the study found included: •The average stay reported by 2011 visitors was 4.9 nights.

This represents a substantial increase from the 2011 average reported visit duration of 2.8 nights. This figure is also higher than the five year average of 4.0 nights.

•The average age of respondents was 51 years old, and this is consistent with data on average from the last five years.

•One half of visitor respondents reported living in New York state, which was slightly lower than demonstrated from 2011 (53 percent). Visitation from all other regions was consistent from the prior year.

•Outdoor activities have not only remained at the top of the list of activities that attracted visitors to the region, they have

steadily grown in popularity as a draw. Hiking was the most popular reported outdoor activity, followed by canoeing/kayaking. Outdoor activities were followed by relaxing, dining and shopping and sightseeing.

“This survey tells us who the visitors are and what their expenditures are,” McKenna said. “Hiking is most popular outdoor activity. We found that 69 percent of the folks that come to the county come between May and October and social media contacts more likely to use digital technology to prepare for the trip.”

Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava also talked about another aspect of the outdoor draw of the Adirondacks.

“I know that we have had a lot of debate about the fish hatcheries, but you look at this and 24 percent of the people coming for an outdoor activity are coming to fish,” Scozzafava said.

The full report is available by visiting the ROOST website, roostadk.com.

Long Lake hires Erin Barton as events coordinator LONG LAKE „ Erin Barton, of Long Lake, has been named Events Coordinator for the Town of Long Lake Parks, Recreation and Tourism department effective immediately.

Her responsibilities include event planning and implementation in both Long Lake and Raquette Lake. Behind the scenes Barton will facilitate the coordination of the monthly calendar, deliver fresh content to area newspapers and work closely with town organizations to support them where she can. Barton will assist with grant-writing, publicity, website coordination and improve outreach to the youth through the Hamilton County Trailblazers.

Barton graduated with a bachelorÍ s degree in history in 2005 from St. Lawrence University and has extensive job experience including her tenure at the Adirondack Museum, Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts, Redhouse Arts Center and Gore Mountain.

Erin Barton was born and raised in Long Lake and has a unique understanding of what itÍ s like growing up in the community and what the opportunities are. She will take advantage of Long LakeÍ s central Adirondack location and build on the abundant recreational opportunities available. “We’ve got paddling, hiking, camping, fishing and so much more. We need to get people outside, on our trails and build fun, diverse events that tie into the geography of our region.” Barton will also build on established events including the summer Antiques Show, the Heart of the Park Craft Fair, and Winter Carnival. Barton looks forward to wrangling the 4th of July Bed Races and the Wounded Warrior Polar Plunge in December.

Look for new diverse programming with an emphasis on shoulder season events for the coming year. ñ Our business community has such a short season, IÍ m determined to build mainstay events into the fall and spring calen-

route and a much anticipated paddling experience. A long history of fish stocking that includes brook trout and landlocked salmon will ensure outstanding fishing. A five-mile stretch of the Hudson River runs along the east side of the Essex Chain parcel, completing an uninterrupted, “forever wild” stretch. The Essex Chain tract provides a premier opportunity for hunting, day rafting, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, overnight river trips, and camping.

•Indian River Tract, Towns of Indian Lake and Minerva, Hamilton and Essex Counties: One of the most exciting and popular whitewater rafting experiences in the Adirondacks starts on the Indian River and continues for nearly 15 miles down the Hudson River Gorge. The addition of this 940-acre tract to the Forest Preserve will preserve this wild experience for future generations. The tract is critical to enhancing rafting operations that draw over 25,000 people annually to this region. It is also a key tract in promoting new recreational opportunities by providing long-awaited access and take-out points that will make the upper Hudson River to the north a viable option for paddlers wishing to experience calmer waters but avoid the class III/ IV rapids of the Hudson River Gorge.

•OK Slip Falls, Town of Indian Lake, Hamilton County: OK Slip Falls is one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the Adirondack Park and part of a 2,800-acre property that will soon be made available to the public for outdoor recreational pursuits. The tract contains 2.1 miles of the Hudson River, the Blue Ledges, the Hudson River Gorge, as well as Carter, Blue Ledge and Pug Hole Ponds. This area is home to more rare and significant mosses and liverworts than any other site in the Adirondack Park. This parcel is located within the Hudson River Gorge Primitive Area which is proposed for reclassification to a Wilderness Area.

For more information, visit the APA online at www.apa.ny.gov.

Local towns favor Wild Forest

On June 5, Long Lake officials posted a story on their town’s blog saying that the five local towns favor a Wild Forest classification of all 69,000 acres of former Finch land, including the Boreas Ponds Tract, which has not yet been purchased by the state. These towns „ Newcomb, Minerva, Indian Lake, Long Lake and North Hudson — have created a partnership called the Upper Hudson Recreation Hub ñ to facilitate and lobby for the only economically and environmentally viable classification” for the former Finch Pruyn lands.

“Wild Forest is the only classification of these lands that will sustain and grow the economy of the Five-Towns of the Upper Hudson Recreation Hub located in the central Adirondacks,” the post states. “Viable economic opportunities cannot be leveraged without motorized access for users to increase visitor traffic in and out of the lands.ñ

Live recording to mark Tannery Pond’s benefit gala NORTH CREEK „ The Tannery Pond Community Center Association will host its 11th Anniversary Benefit Gala Saturday, June 22, featuring a live recording of Sherrie Maricle & the DIVA Jazz Orchestra.

The festivities will include wine, after-dinner treats, a silent auction offering a wide variety of items from regional artists and businesses, and dancing with the DIVAs. The live recording is at 4-6 p.m. and dancing starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $25 per person.

For details and ticket information, visit online at www.tpcca. org or call the Tannery Pond Community Center at 251-2505.

When the DIVAs came to North Creek on Nov. 16 and 17 Tannery Pond’s two-day celebration honoring its volunteers, Sherrie Maricle announced that the band wanted to do a live recording in the acoustically magnificent hall and to contribute all the proceeds to the Tannery Pond Community Center Association. On Saturday, June 22, 2013 they will be here to celebrate TPCCÍ s 11th Anniversary and fulfill their most generous offer.

DIVA Jazz Orchestra

The DIVA Jazz Orchestra is an ensemble of 15 versatile musicians who just happen to be women.

Headed by swinging drummer Sherrie Maricle, DIVA exudes the excitement and force found in the tradition of the historic big bands but with an eye toward today’s progressive sound of originality and verve. With New York as their home base, DIVA performs all over the world playing contemporary, mainstream big band jazz composed and arranged to fit the individual personalities and styles of the musicians themselves. Audiences can expect to hear high-energy performances packed with unique improvisation, spontaneity and fun.

The inspiration for DIVA came from Stanley Kay, one-time manager and relief drummer for Buddy Rich. In 1990, Kay was conducting a band in which Sherrie Maricle was playing the drums. Stanley immediately picked up on her extraordinary talent and began to wonder if there were other women players who could perform at the same level. The search was on and through nationwide auditions, the foundation for The DIVA Jazz Orchestra was poured in 1992 and what emerged is the dynamic musical force that holds forth to the present day.

This year marks The DIVA Jazz Orchestra’s 20th anniversary season.

For more information about the band, visit online at www.divajazz.com.

Portion of County Route 11 closed due to washout in Bolton

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com BOLTON — A section of roadway was washed away on Route 11 early Wednesday, June 5, and a 1,500-foot portion of the road was closed between Valley Woods Road and Hendricks Road.

Deputy Superintendent of Public Works Kevin Hajos said the

washout appeared to be caused by a large impoundment of water that had accumulated behind a beaver dam. Hajos said the body of water was about 6.5 acres and was set about 600 to 700 feet away from the roadway, where it was out of sight. ñ There was quite a bit of water and it looked like it had been there for a while,” Hajos said.

Members of the Warren County Sheriff’s Office drove down

Only one lane of County Route 11 in the town of Bolton was open when this photo was taken Friday, June 7. A portion of the road was closed due to a washout caused by the breaking of a beaver dam.

the road at about 12:30 a.m. while on patrol and didnÍ t report anything, and a call came in about 1 a.m. that the road was damaged.

Hajos said that, considering the large amount of water, once the beaver dam let go to it could have taken less than 10 minutes to damage the road and the embankment.

The roadway was quickly closed and temporary signals were put in place to reroute traffic. Traffic was being detoured through Bolton over Diamond Point Road or through the Schroon River Road.

The department opened one lane of traffic Friday, June 7. Hajos said he plans on opening this section of roadway to two lanes of traffic on Friday, June 14.

“This is a very busy roadway, especially at this time of the year, and Americade has a touring route that travels through that way too,” Hajos said.

The passing of the Greatest Generation

I

n the amount of time it took to brush your teeth this morning a World War II veteran passed away from old age. Now well into their 80s and 90s, the men and women who fought and won the Great Conflict are dying at the rate of more than 800 a day. ThatÍ s approximately one every two minutes.

At one time, there were more than 15 million WWII veterans in the United States. That number has now dwindled to a little more than a million and the median age of a World War II vet is now 92.

It is estimated by the US Veterans Administration that by 2036, there will be no living WWII veterans left to tell their stories of the sights, sounds, victories and horrors of the deadliest war in world history.

Regrettably, many will also never get the opportunity to personally view the National World War II Memorial in Washington D.C. that was dedicated in 2004 to the men and women who fought and died in World War II. That is why the work being done by North Country Honor Flight should be recognized and lauded.

An arm of the national not-for-profit Honor Flight Network, the group was formed in March 2012 by Keeseville resident Danny Kaifetz with the goal of flying North Country WWII veterans to see the War II Memorial in Washington D.C. The premise is simple. Many WWII vets do not have the finances or physical wherewithal to make the trip to D.C. In many cases, friends and family also lack the resources and time to complete the three-to four-day trip by vehicle to the nationÍ s capital.

With that in mind, North Country Honor Flight offers free transportation and airfare to and from the memorial. Accompanying the veterans are guardians who assist with the trip and the bus transporting them to Albany airport is flanked by veteran groups like the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association, the Patriot Guard and the Legion Riders.

While in Albany, they are joined by other Honor Flight groups and treated to a heroes send-off, including crowds cheering and waving, a performance by a military band and speeches from dignitaries.

Signs held up by the crowd read: ”God bless WWII vets,” and “One last mission.”

Then, the veterans board a plane for their all-expense-paid trip to the memorial in Washington D.C. For many it is their one and only chance to witness the tribute that was erected in their honor.

Dozens of veterans from throughout the

circulation area of Denton Publications have already taken advantage of the chance to see the memorial. A group flew out May 18 and another this past Saturday, June 8.

All say they relished the opportunity.

In a letter to the editor, WWII veteran Robert Savarie of Olmstedville said it was an incredibly emotional experience. ñ (It) was an emotional experience as memories of D-Day, Anzio, Battle of the Bulge, Midway, Guadalcanal, Okinawa and so many other battlefields were brought to mind,” he said.

Other veterans like William H. Thompson of Willsboro, Alfred Kurtz of Elizabethtown and Ralph Filion of Plattsburgh all said they were honored by the gesture made by North Country Honor Flight and the outpouring of support they received from members of the community.

Family members that accompanied the veterans had similar sentiments.

Filion’s daughter, Michelle Filion-Schon, drove to Plattsburgh from Pottstown, Pa., to join her father on the flight.

“I think this could very well be the best day of both of our lives,” Filion-Schon said. “I’m so blessed to be there with him when he sees the memorial for the first time. This is the first time he’s ever been appreciated as a veteran.”

LetÍ s hope it wonÍ t be his last.

Approximately 16 million men and women served in the U.S. military during WWII. By the time WWII ended in 1945, Nearly 420,000 United States soldiers lost their lives — another 670,000 were wounded.

In the eight years it has been in existence, the national Honor Flight Network has transported more than 98,500 WWII veterans to Washington, D.C. to see their memorial. The program has 121 hubs in 41 states, including the North Country Honor Flight based in Keeseville.

The argument can certainly be made that no other war in our nation’s history was as influential in keeping our country, values and way of life intact as the Great Conflict.

We owe an immeasurable amount of gratitude to the men and women who fought in WWII to keep this nation free for this generation and more importantly for future generations.

But saying so is just lip service.

The people who volunteer their time to organizations like North Country Honor Flight are walking the walk.

Letters to the Editor Thoughts on the Minerva budget

To the News Enterprise: This letter is to the community of Minerva as to ask for all of your help in the upcoming budget voting.

Our school budget was voted down to people thinking our school was over staffed for the students that we have enrolled and a lot of unnecessary things. I can set you all straight as far as the studentÍ s outlook is on this all. They are actually willing to pay Mr. B their band teacher their allowances to keep him.

As for teachers, they have all took pay freezes and are willing to take job cuts just to allow the students to keep what they are going to lose. As I figure it all out, I can admit things are tough academically with food, fuel, gas and taxes all going up, so this seems like something else too, but its really not. The $80 a year ($7 monthly) will give the MCS students the extra help with academics that a lot of our students need with the higher standards the state expected of them now. If nothings left but hard work, ho earn it and nothing to give them self esteem “band, music, art, physical education” then we’re looking at drop

Weather Watch

By Paul Little May 2013 was a typical Adirondack Spring month with periods of very dry weather followed by heavy rains and even snow in some parts of the area. There were warm temperatures and also a period of very cold readings. The first 10 days of the month were perfect Spring days with daytime temperatures in the 70’s and nighttime temperatures in the 30’s. The most amazing weather event did not occur here but in the High Peaks area where up to 3 feet of snow fell over the Memorial Day Weekend.

out and dim future for Minerva school district because the families will move away. There has been no tax increase for four years even though the state funding was taken away. The schools always put the students best interest in the front, now they are asking us as a community to support them and we have said NO! Please reconsider our budget plan for June 18. This ones only $30 more a year but with their kids losing out anyways, could you at least consider what this all means to the students and vote YES. Hayley D. Killon North Creek

Some snow was also seen here on Gore Mountain.

The average high temperature was 69.7 degrees and the average low was 42.5 degrees, giving us an average of 56.1 degrees,1.1 degree above average. The highest temperature, 90 degrees, was recorded on the 31st and the lowest temperature, 27 degrees, was recorded on the 14th. The last frost here in Riparius, a 30 degree reading, was recorded on the 16th. The average date for the last frost is May 19th.

Precipitation for the month was 3.35 inches,0.55 inches below normal. This brings our seasonal total to 10.35 inches, 5.89 inches below normal which is only 64% of normal. There was measurable precipitation on 15 days with the greatest amount, 0.70 inches, falling on the 24th.

The river reached its highest level. 6.78 feet, on the 27th and its lowest level, 3.22 inches on the 20th.

Farmers Market in a new location

NORTH CREEK „ The North Creek Farmers Market (NCFM) officials are excited to be partnering with the Adirondack Tri-County Nursing & Rehabilitation Center to offer its locally produced foods and goodies in a more convenient location. Shoppers and vendors can now access the market directly from Route 28, on the health centerÍ s lawn.

The NCFM season starts on June 20, continuing every Thursday 3-6 p.m. through Oct. 3. Market shoppers should look for both returning and new vendors including Juniper Hill Farm, Colebrook Country Wines, Barkeater Chocolates, Saratoga Apple, Adirondack Gold Maple Farm, Poeima Home, Maple Grove Farm, North Country Arts Center, Hidden Hollow Maple Farm, Rogers Rustic, DonnaÍ s StufÍ t Pretzels, North Creek Designs, and Wevertown Country Store. North Creek offers a producer-only market, meaning that the goods are grown or made solely by its vendors.

The nursing home welcomes market-goers to enjoy its landscaped gazebo while listening to the live entertainment that the market regularly provides. Rain or shine, the NCFM will provide shoppers a weekly opportunity to support local growers, specialty food vendors, and area artisans.

Opening day will offer complimentary reusable NCFM shopping bags to the first 50 attendees and live music from Vinnie Leddick. June 20 is a Third Thursday Art Walk, and market visitors are also encouraged to visit the numerous nearby businesses hosting artists that evening.

Another enjoyable way to support the market’s initiatives is by attending its annual brunch, scheduled for Sept.

Question of the Month

Could you tell about a place where you’ve had a lot of fun?

Johnsburg Central School Mrs. Watson, grade 3 “My favorite place that I had a lot of fun is the pet store in the Aviation Mall. I get to play with the animals. Also, I get to look at the animals. I can take some home, too. I can even pet them.”

(Nicholas Millington) ñI had a lot of fun at the Great Escape Lodge. I went on all the rides like the Boogi Bear, the Lazy River, the water slides and all three of the tubing slides. It was fun because my friends were there and we all had a huge giant chocolate chip cookie with frosting on it and some pizza. We got to go to the arcade and it was fun. I think the Great Escape Lodge is awesome. IÍ m going to my friends house and I’m sure that will be fun!” (Aleesha Washburn) “I have lots of fun at my grandma’s house. I go to the swing and my grandma and I talk about funny things. I like going there because my grandma will give me some of her stuff. She has given me stuffed animals that she had when she was a girl. I got a stuffed dog and a wooden toy.” (Eli Burkhardt) “I had a lot of fun at the Fun Spot. My favorite thing there is laser tag. It is fun to me because itÍ s in the dark and there are a lot of places to hide. Also everything glows. You can reload your blaster and fire. One of the things I did was blast someone when they fell, he blasted me. I like laser tag.” (Zachariah Morehouse) “I have the most fun at my aunt’s house. I went there with my cousin and my step sister. I played with Petey, their dog. When I tried to pet him he ran so fast around the house. When he came around the couch I caught him and he ran off. We also baked cup cakes. I made chocolate cupcakes with homemade Oreo frosting.

MY step sister made velvet cupcakes with vanilla frosting. I had so much fun going with my cousin.” (Madison Buck) ñ A cool and fun place would be, dreaming in my sleep because I like to sleep and I dream in my sleep about fun places. So, when I sleep I dream about all the places I want to go to and all the places I will go to. Some are funny but whatever I do and whatever dreams I get I know that I love, I mean really love to sleep. I think sleeping is the funnest I mean the funnest thing in the world because sleeping helps me wake up in the early morning and be awake and ready to start the day and go to school.” (Drue DeGroat) “My favorite cool fun place is the Funspot. It is in Glens Falls. I go roller skating there. I go on a climbing wall and play laser tag.

my brother did not go. Our team used our Avon money to pay for it.” (Nicole Lynn Brown) ñI had a lot of fun at the Great Escape because you can ride fast things like the Sasquatch and the Comet. The Great Escape has this cool water slide. The Comet was the first roller coaster ever built. The Comet is my favorite ride because it starts low then it goes very high. I rode the Sasquatch. It was very fun. One of the workers was very funny because before we go fast up in the air he will say “Oink, oink, oink.” He is very funny. The Boomerang goes in circles.

Newcomb super assures high school will remain open

By McKenna Kelly

newsenterprise@denpubs.com NEWCOMB — Members of the Newcomb Central School Board held their final budget hearing on Monday, June 10, covering cuts to the previous budget, as well as maintenance expenses that could not be avoided.

Both the Board and Superintendent Skip Hults also shot down rumors that NCS would close its high school if the next budget fails.

Most of the cuts Hults covered were to academic and extracurricular activities. Independent study programs, extra transportation runs, band tours, music festivals, and the Youth and Government program have all been eliminated.

This does not mean all of the programs are gone for good; in the case of band tours and Youth and Government, it simply means costs would be passed on to studentsÍ parents. Hults also hopes NewcombÍ s PTSO will help raise money for both programs. There was no mention of staff reductions.

The costs that could not be reduced included bus maintenance, conversion to a completely digital assessment system, and electricity/fuel expenses. The first two are state-mandated, while the third is necessary given the Adirondack ParkÍ s harsh winters.

Members of the Newcomb community were actively engaged during the entire meeting — asking questions about specific program costs, potential sources of revenue, and state regulations „ but the most passionate issue of the

evening was the belief that NCS will tuition its high school students to other districts if it is forced to use a contingency budget. Community members were outraged by the possibility.

In a June 4 article, the Post Star reported Hults to have said closing the high school was the only way to meet the demands of a contingency

budget.

Sterling Goodspeed was particularly concerned. ñ My kids came home and asked us where they were going to school next year. It was disturbing,” Goodspeed said.

Goodspeed „ whose wife, Susan, is a mem-

ber of the School Board — delivered a passionate defense of the school, which was met by applause from the rest of the audience. ñ IÍ d rather pay for a school IÍ m proud of than have no school at all,” said Phyllis Montanye said, who is the second in four generations of her family to graduate from Newcomb Central School.

The Board was quick to assuage the audienceÍ s fears. They were insistent that NewcombÍ s high school would stay open.

“It was mention in passing,” Susan Goodspeed said. “None of us agreed to it.”

Instead, Hults said NCS will take money out of its plan balance to cover the costs. The plan balance, a total of $500,000, is set aside for building repairs and other unforeseen costs.

The problem with this is that once the money in the plan balance is gone, itÍ s gone for good.

If something goes wrong in the future, it would mean huge problems the Newcomb might not be able to afford.

Board President Kevin Bolan confirmed that the NCS administration has asked other districts for tuition price quotes, but only as a last-ditch resort. He hopes families from other districts in the area will tuition their students to Newcomb instead. Bolan lamented that he has not been able to effectively communicate the schoolÍ s intentions to the Newcomb community, and hopes that any misgivings have been cleared up.

Newcomb will vote on the new budget on Tuesday, June 18, from 3 to 8 p.m. (The time was changed from 2 to 8 p.m. to 3 to 8 p.m.)

Offering confections that are not currently found in local retailers, or at least not in the same quantity or packaging, the factory store will be a launching pad for new and exotic flavor pairings. Deb adds, “We are not looking to compete with our retail partners; so we are focusing on our truffles and other confections in gift packs versus single impulse items that you would find in a store.”

Jim says, ñ ThereÍ s no better way to test a confection than to have our customers try a sample.

Either we’ll have a winner and work on marketing it to other retail outlets, or decide that itÍ s a niche that is best offered to a smaller segment of our customers.”

Exclusive confections will include the Caramel Collection; a line of chocolate confections with house-made caramel and a variety of addins such as peanut butter, salted peanuts, coffee & smoked pepitas.

NORTH CREEK „ ItÍ s been a long time coming. After celebrating their fifth anniversary as the AdirondacksÍ gourmet chocolate confections company, Barkeater Chocolates has changed their location and opened a small factory store to complement their web store.

The factory store, located at 3235 State Route 28 in North Creek, is hosting a grand opening on Saturday, June 15 from noon - 5 p.m. The festivities will include live music with local band Decadence; as well as, giveaways (while supplies last), prizes and of course, samples. The store carries items currently found at barkeaterchocolates.com, along with many factory store exclusives.

Deb Morris, co-founder says, “The reason for the move is that we needed more space for production, packaging and storage. When the opportunity presented itself, we made the leap.”

Previously, Barkeater Chocolates’ operated in the lower level of Café Sarah on Main Street.

The idea of a factory store was conceived when Jim Morris, co-founder, did a walkthrough of the prospective location. He says,

to impose obstacles that appeared to prevent Smith from obtaining the interment and full military honors which he deserved.

Pierce had heard several months ago that Templeton needed help in preventing Smith’s ashes from being tossed into a common grave, without appropriate recognition. He discussed the situation with the officers of his Legion post as well as Denise DiResta, director of Warren County Veterans Services.

Pierce and DiResta contacted the Marine Corps in Washington D.C., obtained Smith’s SmithÍ s meritorious record, and Marine Corps officials arranged for interment in the National Cemetery, and for the Marine honor guard to participate in the services. Pierce also negotiated for his ashes to be released.

While Templeton praised Pierce, his Legion Post, area funeral director John Alexander and DiResta for their combined efforts, Pierce said he and others accomplished what they did as a matter of duty to a fellow soldier who deserved the honors.

“Wayne Smith served a total of 10 years in the Marines — including three tours in Vietnam in four years „ and weÍ re glad that now his grandkids can be really proud of his service,” Pierce said.

Wayne B. Smith was born in Bakers Mills, on his familyÍ s farm in 1946. Smith enlisted in the U.S. Marines in January 1964, serving until June 1970. He re-enlisted in the Marines in November 1973, serving until late December 1977, incurring wounds along the way. When he returned to northern Warren County, he worked various construction jobs, including building ski lifts at Gore Mountain. He also worked at various mills in the region. Smith retired around 2000, and spent later years concentrating on hobbies including collecting gems and gardening.

But his passion was outdoor sports including fishing and hunting, said Templeton as well as SmithÍ s best friend Joey Helms Sr., who also served in Vietnam. Helms worked construction jobs with Smith, and the two enjoyed fishing trips together.

“Wayne could out-work two men,” Helms recalled. “Wayne was fun to be around — he was a great all-around guy.”

School Superintendent Skip Hults. In addition, school officials sent out a survey to residents to find out their priorities.

School Board members decided to remove the purchase of a $50,000 bus from the spending plan and add it as a separate proposition.

In the revised budget, there has been a “reduction of positions” and the removal of another position; however, the school superintendent refused to reveal which positions were being reduced/removed. ñ My problem is if I tell you what positions „ because weÍ re such a small school — I would be just giving you the teachers’

names, which we would rather not do right now,” Hults said in a June 10 phone interview. After the News Enterprise stated that those titles „ as part of the budget cuts „ are public information, Hults added, ñ By the time you FOIL (Freedom of Information Law) it, it would probably be after the election anyway. Part of this is still under negotiations, and part of it is in the hands of our attorney.”

The budget vote will take place from 3 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, June 18 at the Newcomb Central School. The district needs a 60 percent supermajority to pass the budget.

ADK Summer Playhouse presents the musical ‘Cabaret’ on Gore Mountain

NORTH CREEK „ The Adirondack Summer Playhouse puts a unique twist on the musical “Cabaret” in three performances this summer on Gore Mountain.

The production, which runs July 11-13, takes place in a modern “Spiegeltent,” an Austrian mirrored circus tent, offering clasV LF * HUP DQ EHHUDQ G J RRGLHV V X FK DV NQ GHO EUDW Z X UV W V DX HUkraut, sausages and pretzels.

“Cabaret” is set in Berlin in 1931, as the Nazis are rising to power. It focuses on nightlife at the seedy Kit Kat Klub and revolves around the 19-year-old English cabaret performer Sally Bowles and her relationship with the young American writer Cliff Bradshaw. Overseeing the action is the master of ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub.

“This classic is sure to dazzle and delight audiences,” says Stephen Svoboda, executive director of the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts and the Red House Arts Center. ñ Theatergoers are invited to come early and ride the gondola to the top of Gore Mountain, where they can get a breathtaking view of the Adirondacks and enjoy a beer and treats.”

“Cabaret,” which made its Broadway debut in 1966, won eight Tony Awards; a Broadway revival in 1998 won four Tony Awards and three Drama Desk Awards. The show was adapted into a film in 1972 starring Liza Minelli.

“Cabaret on Gore Mountain” is produced in partnership with the Red House Arts Center and is supported by a grant from the New York State Council on the Arts. It is one of six productions offered this summer by the Adirondack Summer Playhouse (formerly known as the Adirondack Lakes Summer Theater Festival).

Performances start at 7 p.m. July 11, 12 and 13. Tickets, which include a chairlift ride to the top of the mountain, are $50 for adults and teenagers; $40 for members of the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts.

Trout swim, bugs bite and students write

A few years ago, I received a photograph of a Long Island angler who took a pair of salters from a small estuary stream on Long Island Sound. One was a rainbow and the other a brook trout.

Both fish weighed well over five pounds, and at the time, the brookie would have easily topped the record book. However, the angler ate his catch before it could be officially weighed.

Is there a possibility that a seven pounder is out there lurking in a backwoods stillwater? Way back in 1911, Field & Stream magazine listed a 6 lb. 11 ox. New York brook trout in the publication’s annual listing of state-by-state records. Supposedly, the fish was taken by Henry Christian from Sand Pond in the Catskill Mountain headwaters of the Willowemoc River.

ater levels continue to rise all across the North Country, and fortunately so do the trout, especially on many of the smaller brooks and streams which tend to flush faster and return to normal levels more rapidly than the larger rivers.

I’ve spent a fair bit of time in recent days, working the smaller tributaries in pursuit of wild brookies and rainbows. It never ceases to amaze me how far up into the headwaters trout can be found.

I’ve also had success working the lower, slower moving valley waters, where beaver activity has created larger pools and the trout remain as thick as the blackflies.

Fortunately, relief arrived last weekend when a major hatch of dragon flies brought some vicious thunder to the black clouds of flies.

It appears this has been a particularly good year for big fish, as evidenced by the most recent state record brookie which cracked the 6 pound barrier.

Many brook trout anglers wonder if there will ever be a record fish to top the old historical mark of 8 lb., 8 oz. taken by William Keener from Punchbowl Pond in Sullivan County, way back in 1908.

That fish stood atop the record books for nearly a century, before the official NYS records were expunged in 2003 due to the lack of sufficient biological and photographic evidence.

It is not likely there will ever be a freshwater brook trout to top the 14 pounder that Daniel Webster supposedly caught on Long Island’s Carman River back in the 1880’s.

However there is recent evidence that the population of ‘saltersÍ , as sea run brookies are known, is on the rise.

The Outdoor Writers Association of America recently voted to allow students from both college and high school level writers into the organization’s membership for the first time.

Many believe the decision will permit a wider range of upand-coming communicators to join OWAA in the student membership category, while expanding an opportunity that was previously available only to higher-education students.

Student membership in OWAA will be available for only $10 per year, and it will offer members full access to OWAA’s resources for connecting with fellow communicators, improving professional skills as well as expanding publishing opportunities to sell their work.

OWAA student members will also be eligible for full scholarships that include registration expenses and all meals while attending OWAA’s annual conferences, throughout the 3-day event.

According to OWAA membership and conference services coordinator, Jessica Pollett, ”As part of our mission to be mentors for the next generation of professional outdoor communicators, we felt it was only natural to extend our range of services to high school students as well. This is already a group we support through other programs such as our Norm Strung Youth Writing Awards, but we wanted to expand benefits available to these promising young communicators.”

All OWAA members receive the bimonthly trade magazine Outdoors Unlimited, as well as press credentials, access to membership lists and media contacts for outdoor groups, agencies and businesses, plus access to media-only discounts.

The OWAA will host a joint convention with the NYS Outdoor Writers Association in Lake Placid this coming September. For more information please visit http://owaa.org/2013conference/ registration/scholarships/ Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.

In July of 1915, Dr. CW Cook caught the 14.5 pound World Record brook trout from the Nipigon River in Ontario, Canada. The river is a tributary of Lake Superior. The big fish was considered a ‘coaster’, a particularly large species of brook trout that is spawned in the rivers and spends its life feeding it the large lakes. Similarly, ‘salters’ are brook trout, browns and rainbows that spawn in freshwater, tidal estuaries but return to a saltwater environment for most of their life. Salters are known to exist on many of Long Island estuary streams, as well as the streams and rivers of the New England states. The brook trout (L) and rainbow trout (R) pictured were taken on a Long Island stream in 2008. The brook trout measured 25 inches in length, and weighed an estimated 7 lbs. It would have easily claimed the NYS Brook Trout Record. However the angler never submitted it for consideration because he ate it!
