This Week Depot Museum to look at ‘lost’ ski areas Jan . 10

By Maggie Morgan maggie@denpubs.com

JOHSNBURG — On Saturday, Jan. 10, at 5 p.m., renowned ski history author Jeremy Davis will discuss the “lost ski areas” in North Creek and North River which operated from 1936 to 1977.

Davis, wordsmith behind the “Lost Ski Areas” series, won the 2012 International Ski History Association’s Skade Award for outstanding ski history after penning “Lost Ski Areas of the Southern Adirondacks.”

Last year, Davis delivered a few copies of his book to the North Creek Depot Museum, and head of operations for the museum, Susan Forrest, couldn’t stop looking through them.

“The second room in the museum is the ski room and people would be really interested so I referred them to his books and we got rid of them quickly,” said Forrest.

“I called [Davis] last summer and told him we needed more and that is when he emailed me and said he wanted to come and talk to benefit the museum.”

Forrest was extremely excited about the proposal, and has since been organizing the discussion with great anticipation for the Jan. 10 event.

“I have gotten lots of names including the five panelists who will speak, but everyone I talk to has another person who has a story,” said Forrest.

“YOLO,” collectively said Francis and the Taylor Chicks, a team clad in bathrobes and pajamas (and one gentleman in a lady’s swimsuit).

Hample groaned.

“You didn’t just say that.”

“I’m jumping for joy,” drolly remarked one.

“It’s like a roller coaster ride,” said one. “You’re more scared on the ground.”

INDIAN LAKE — The policy of not having homework assignments count toward a student’s Grade Point Average (GPA) is one that has been met by some pushback and been the subject of analysis for some tine now in the Indian Lake Central School District.

Since the inception of the school year and in the face of the pushback about the homework policy, teachers had been asked to provide data for analysis regarding the number of students in their respective classes, potential number of homework assignments, number of homework assignments not completed when due, number of discipline referrals and parent contacts due to incomplete or non-performance of homework.

This data was provided by the teachers and shared with the board members during an executive session to protect student identity during a public meeting.

During the public portion of the meeting, the board addressed the policy in the light of the analysis provided.

Vice President David Harrington outlined his personal viewpoint.

“Let me say from the outset, that I have always personally felt that the teacher is the best judge of whether homework should be a contributor to GPA.“

Ski areas

Continued from page 1 After Davis’ presentation, five panelists will briefly discus their involvement with North Creek’s early ski days. Panelists include Tom Cunningham, who skied the “lost trails” as a youth; Joan Colton, who has spent her whole life on the slopes; Tom Butler, who was a member of the first ski patrol in the state; Greg Schaefer, whose father built Skiland, New York’s first ski school; and Mike Butler whose family put up a 1,500 foot ski trail on Barton Mines, a very popular spot from 1960-1977.

After the panelists discuss their connection to the lost areas, audience members will share their own treasures. When the program has ended, those in attendance will be invited to view pictures and artifacts from the long lost days of skiing while sipping on wine and snacking on cheese.

There is no cost to attend, but donations will be accepted to benefit the North Creek Depot Museum, which is striving to rally community support and involvement.

“We have been trying to breathe life into the museum and get a good relationship with the community,” said Forrest. “I am really excited about this idea.”

Dr. Gerry Florio (C.R. Wood Cancer Center), Galen Hogan (4-H Member), Willow Hogan (4-H Member) and John Bowe (Association Team Coordinator) were part of the “Think Pink, Live Green” check presentation to Dr. Florio on behalf of Warren County 4-H to Cindy’s Comfort Camp for Kids. After a year-long fundraising challenge, the Warren County 4-H program raised $1,682 to benefit Cindy’s Comfort Camp and 4-H youth programming in Warren County with its “Think Pink, Live Green” fundraiser. Hosting a pancake breakfast, collecting bottles and cans, and soliciting personal donations, the youth exceeded their goal of $1,500. Half of the money raised was donated to the C.R. Wood Cancer Center’s camp for kids who are dealing with a parent or sibling who has a serious illness or for youth who have experienced the death of a parent or sibling. The camp is free for youth between the ages of 7 and 16.

The remainder of the money raised will help support the 4-H programs benefitting youth in Warren County.

Three year Adirondack Moose Study underway in region

By Maggie Morgan

maggie@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — The research project launched to study the moose population in the Adirondacks is just getting started.

Regional Wildlife Manager, Ed Reed, explained what the study hopes to do and what steps will be taken in the near future.

The Adirondack Moose Study is being conducted by several parties all interested in the same goal: to learn as much as possible about what is happening and why.

SUNY ESF, New York State’s DEC, and Cornell University have partnered together and will each play an integral role in gathering evidence to support their theories. A combination of aerial studies, GPS tracking collars, and studies of moose diets and where they have been sighted will all be used in coming up with a conclusion.

The project, funded by the Pittman–Robertson Act, will focus on the mystery of the moose; why are these species relocating from their native habitats?

Reed said the study will concentrate mainly on the Adirondack Park part of New York because 90 percent of the mooses’ habitat land inside the blue line. While Maine has seen a rise in population, other states in the mooses’ southern region, like Minnesota and New Hampshire, have noticed a somewhat startling decrease.

“One of the reasons we are doing this is because we have noticed the population has not increased the way we thought it would and

A three year study of the Adirondack Moose has recently been launched and intensive research is set to begin in January. we expected to be ahead of where we are right now,” said Reed. “Something is going on that we don’t know about.”

Reed explained that most moose that were once native to the area recolonized in the late 1800’s because of deforestation, but once their habitats had regenerated they have seen rein-

troduction of the species since 1980, but not as significant as they had expected. “[Moose] excavated from New York, New Hampshire, and Vermont in the late 1800’s and Maine retained that population,” said Reed.

“New York has not seen that same increase and we want to find out how many moose we have,

Hudson Headwaters adds Dr. Michael Bell to roster

By Maggie Morgan

maggie@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Dr. Michael Bell, a family practicioner, has been added to HHHN’s medical staff after 14 years of practicing at Evergreen Health Center in Corinth.

Bell and HHHN’s CEO Dr. John Rugge are excited for what the future will bring the growing medical network.

“We are extremely pleased to add an experienced and well known physician to our staff,Ó said Rugge.

Bell began at HHHN Dec. 3 and will be primarly practicing in the Warrensburg office

while also jumping around throughout other North Country locations. Bell is no stranger to the area, and has always followed Hudson Headwaters and what they do in the community.

“I’ve always liked what Warrensburg was doing and interviewed there in 1990 as a resident and knew Dr. Rugge that way,” Bell said.

“Over the past 14 years, I have watched them grow and succeed while reading about their new development. They adverstised for a new family practitioner and I got in touch to see what was going on...it was an exciting move.”

Bell, a resident of Day, NY, said the Warrensburg Health Center is only 20 miles away from

his home, allowing him to stay put and not have to relocate for the opportunity. His connection to the rural community of Warrensburg is clear, and as many are he is impressed with all the tight knit town has to offer, especially in regards to medical services.

“In my 23 years of doing family practice, primary care, I’ve never seen a town as rural and small as Warrensburg that has the amazing medical resources that are being put together in the new center,” said Bell. “I think it is exciting to have all these resources under one roof and amazing to be able to see that evolving in a small rural town in Upstate New York.”

how fast their rate of change is growing and declining, and the reason for that.”

Though the study has just began, Reed revealed what may be in the future for the study.

There have been discussions about the phone application, “iNaturalist”, and how it can be utilized by the public to report moose sightings with GPS locations and photographs.

“We want to learn everything there is to learn about moose in New York,” said Reed. “What they are doing, what they are eating, how their population is doing. We want an efficient monitoring program and to figure out how we can keep tabs on animals in a cost effective manner.”

Reed can’t be sure yet, with the study being so new, but he has reason to believe the driving force behind what is going on in some states is pointing to climate change.

“There are certain parasites and diseases that thrive more in a warmer environment and it only takes a few degrees to make a difference... [moose] can’t tolerate a warmer climate than what we have now,” said Reed.

Reed reported that in the beginning of January the aerial studies will begin and in the later portion of the month the animals will start to be collared for tracking. The project team has hired a firm that has been working in Maine and New Hampshire collaring the moose by netting them or immobilizing them with a dart from a helicopter.

The public has also been “hired” to help lend a hand in the study; if anyone knows where a moose is hanging around with fairly easy access, call the Regional Wildlife Office at 8971291.

Orange boys pull out overtime victory against Lake Placid Boys Basketball

IL/LL 60, Lake Placid 59, OT

LAKE PLACID — Henry Sandiford nailed a free throw in the final minute of overtime to lift the Orange past Lake Placid Dec. 22.

Sandiford finished with 14 points, while Curtis Seaman paced the Orange offense with 27 points.

“A lot of credit goes to Curtis Seaman and Henry Sandiford as they brought IL/LL back in the fourth quarter, scoring a combined 14 of their 18 points in the fourth quarter,” Bombers coach Matthew Walentuk said, “They were able to get ahead by three points in the fourth, but Tarik Cecunjanin hit a 3 pointer to tie it all up and force overtime. They came back again and built a lead in OT, but Jay Reid came off the bench to hit a clutch 3 to tie it at 59 all with under 20 seconds left. The Orange came down the floor and called a timeout with 7.5 seconds left. Sandiford got the inbounds and dribbled it to the top of the key and was fouled on his 3-point attempt as time expired. He sunk his first free throw to win the game.”

Noah Pine added 8, while Mathias Vormelker scored 7, Rudy Geiseen 3 and Zack Hoag 1.

“When a team drains eight 3-pointers, many of them from five feet behind the arc, it makes it very tough to keep the momentum of the game,” Walentuk said. “The excitement of the fans and spectators made for a thrilling environment as both teams stepped up and hit clutch shot after clutch shot. Kudos to Indian Lake Long Lake and coach Seaman for never giving up and playing hard the whole game.”

Our own New Year’s resolutions

R

ing out the old; ring in the new.

Ring, happy bells, across the snow.

The year is going; let him go.

2014 has come and gone, leaving us with plenty of memories and plenty of things to look forward to.

At this time of year, the term New Year’s resolution is used to help set goals for the turning of the page now known as 2015, and we here at Denton Publications have some of our own goals and hopes for the next 365 days: The New Year is the perfect time to take an inventory of prior year’s achievements and set one’s sight for opportunities in 2015. On the business side, we resolve to continue our efforts to improve the coverage in our community newspapers. From an employer’s side, I resolve to be more attentive to team building within our staff so we can enhance the opportunities for those we employ. And lastly, on the personal side, I resolve to be a better husband, parent, grandfather, brother and friend to those closest to me who all to often have taken a back seat to my professional life.

Dan Alexander, Publisher My single largest goal heading into the New Year is simply to be more optimistic and positive. I hope to compliment more and be less critical of others Ñ especially when it is done in the shadows and not face to face. I see the negativity spill forth all around — during water cooler chatter and posted on social media. It is counterproductive to happiness and saps valuable time that could be used to better our own lives as well as society as a whole. Lastly, I will strive to associate with supportive, encouraging people. If you want to be successful, associate with successful people. If you want to be a positive person, associate with the same.

John Gereau Obviously, I have some of the more traditional resolutions people have each year, like losing weight, but one I think I will be more focused on this year is trying to work on the bonds within my family. I have always told my children they need to realize how important they will be to each other as they grow older. While adoption was one of the greatest things that ever happened to me, the main “what if” in my life is what it would have been like with a sibling (obviously, I wanted a brother, although I’m sure my parents had enough of boys after the first one). I want to help them build that bond with each other and between my wife and I, as their parents.

Keith Lobdell Eat local. Chowing down on processed, overpriced slop benefits few aside from giant commercial farms, multinational food companies and the segments of the medical biz who stand to benefit from treating preventive diseases. One regional company, in particular, deserves the lion’s share of

blame for endlessly flogging their unhealthy fare to working class folks despite the fact that they can use their influence to induce residents to make better lifestyle choices by setting a positive example. I won’t give them my business this year. Instead, I’ll redirect that spending to support local agriculture.

Pete DeMola I want to be a better version of me. I hate New Year’s resolutions. Every year, I put about 50 idiotic things onto my resolution list. After Jan. 1, I won’t eat Indian food twice a week instead of cooking. Next year, I’ll write a children’s book. On New Year’s day, I’ll finally use those $80 rollerblades that just sit in my closet. These generalized, somewhat meaningless goals don’t really make my year all that better. I think this year I will just vow to grow up; I’ll read more books and less magazines, drink more water and less beer, listen more and talk less, relax more and worry less and see what I can bring to 2015, not what it can bring to me.

Maggie Morgan

The way I see it, waiting to start (or stop) doing something on the first of the year probably means I’ve probably capped off the outgoing year with a streak of procrastinating. That said, I’m going to try things a little differently this year and keep doing what has been working rather than biting off too many new things to chew. So, I’ll build more furniture, snowboard as much as I can, shoot for the annual trip to a Syracuse basketball game, and keep up this veggies-insteadof-garbage-food kick I’ve been on for a few months. Maybe I’ll throw in a few things along the way when I think I need to, not when the calendar dictates it.

Andrew Johnstone Patronize the businesses in your community. Shopping with local, independently owned businesses offers a wealth of advantages. Not only will you save travel time and expenses, but you will be supporting local job creation, as well as help support the vitality and sustainability of your community. Also, small businesses offer more comprehensive, personalized service Ñ because the proprietors understand your needs — which can mean greater satisfaction derived from purchases.

Dollars spent at independent businesses return three times more money to the local economy than money spent at a chain store. Local enterprises, owned by local citizens who have a long-term stake in the community and its future, spend far more money in their hometowns, boosting local prosperity. Local businesses generate far more tax revenue per sales dollar, and build the local tax base, supporting various vital services. Buying from local businesses supports the kind of vibrant, cohesive community — with its own distinctive charm — that we want to live in.

Thank you, Bill A

By David G. Welch

s 2014 comes to a close, we also say god bye to Congressman Bill Owens who completes his term Dec 31.

We should all say thanks to Bill for his hard work over the past several years. He was a unique individual in the recent days of Congress in that he voted based on the needs of the country and the district and not based on his personal agenda or pressure from the party.

While there were times that his votes caused consternation from both liberal and conservative thinkers, and while almost none of us would say that we agreed with every one of his votes or positions, what we do know is that his decisions were based on study and understanding of the issues.

On the few occasions that I had the opportunity to meet with Bill, I was very impressed that both he and his staff were already well versed in the topic I was there to discuss. He was able to ask pertinent questions and I was able to present my opinions or comments in a way that I felt were listened to by someone who really wanted to have my input.

Such preparation and interest is rare among elected officials. When visiting some others, I was either passed off to an aide who may or may not have any information about the topic at hand or received a “lecture” from the official who had clearly already established a set opinion on the topic and would not even give my thoughts any consideration. In talking to Bill, you always left feeling that at least you were heard even if we did not ultimately agree.

I also had the opportunity to ask Bill’s office for assistance in helping one of my patients obtain a much needed piece of durable medical equipment. We were getting nowhere with the Medicare intermediaries but with assistance from Bill’s staff, we were finally able to reach a compromise and get him the needed equipment.

Bill, you were a true statesman and a real asset to the 21st Congressional District and to the country. I will miss your thoughtful consideration of legislation and your efforts to promote action that was good for the country and for our district. Thanks again for all your hard work and good luck in any new ventures you chose to undertake.

Dr. David G. Welch is a general practitioner who resides in Lake Placid.

ell, another Christmas is behind us and almost the end of 2014. What are your plans for 2015 that will leave a memory for you forever. We need to make more memories for our family. The temperatures have really been unusual. The snow has gone down fast. Glad the ice is gone. When I step out side I can hear the roaring of the brook across the road. It is higher than normal with all the rain. This weather has not been very good for skiing.

Fred and Ruth Allen in New Jersey were able to be in their new home on Christmas Eve and were able to entertain many friends.

It was nice to hear from different families how they got together to celebrate the Christmas holiday. I like to ride around and see the lights. People seem to come alive for the season.

Notes from Planet Earth

By Wes Dingman

Manna from Heaven?

W

ell, not really, ‘Money from Mars’ would be closer to the truth. In 2003 Dr. Jay Piatek’s son was involved in a fourth-grade science project on meteorites. Dr. Piatek had to ask his son what a meteorite was and, when he learned they were strange rocks from other planets or asteroids, he became very interested. As a physician living in the Indianapolis suburbs his vocation is helping patients lose weight but since 2003 he has become increasingly involved in collecting meteorites. Searching Ebay he found dealers in Africa from whom he purchased valuable specimens from Nigeria and Namibia and, in 2011, through a dealer in Morocco, he became the owner of a recently found meteorite named “Black Beauty,” discovered in the Western Sahara Desert. This piece weighed 320 grams (less than a pound) and cost Dr. Piatek $6,000.

Since then he has acquired nine more fragments of the same meteorite, out of more than 12 known to exist. These had been found scattered over more than a six mile swath of the desert. He sold a slice of Black Beauty to a scientist who studies of this specimen uncovered data pointing to the origins and remarkable history of this meteorite.

As a result of these scientific findings Black Beauty’s value increased dramatically. Compared to gold trading at around $40 a gram, slices of Black Beauty have sold for more than $10,000 a gram. The meteorite’s origin was found to be the planet Mars rather than an

ILCS

Continued from page 1 Harrington went on to point out that instead of using teachers’ time to continue to assemble this data out into the future and the increase of parent contact over mediocre or non-performance of homework suggested by the analysis, “we should work on a way to motivate students not doing homework.”

President Jon Voorhees opened his comments on the issue by saying he agreed with Harrington, but did not believe that the analysis supported the changing of the policy.

As in past discussions, Voorhees outlined his concern that homework assignments are often performed by some students with help from parents and or other students. Voorhees’ view is these students have an advantage over other students that do not get such help or assistance.

In his view, this does not contribute to a, “level playing field,” and therefore should not result in a contribution to GPA. Nora Harrington, English Teacher, commented from the floor that in the face of this policy, “some of our students are happy being mediocre. Some of these same students have told us that if homework counted in a grade, they would change their attitude.”

Harrington added that as teachers they were looking for a compromise on the policy.

“Right now, they see the only way to get a grade is to take a test,” she said. “What if you

Either way, most of my friends and I will be glad to support you in your crusade.

Initially Black Beauty was thought to be of volcanic origin but more recent research has suggested strongly that it is a type of rock known as breccia, which is a sedimentary rock, a rock made up of grains and pebbles worn and polished before being deposited in sediment by either flowing water or winds. The age of some of these minerals has been determined to be 4.4 billion years which is just 100 million years after Mars itself formed. Broken up later by weathering from wind and water the various pebbles and fragments were again fused together by the impact of an asteroid some 5 million years ago and ejected into space where gravitational forces and orbital mechanics slowly brought it to Earth. Analysis of the outer layers of this meteorite, which were melted and weathered by its contact with Earth’s atmosphere, indicates it arrived here less than 1,000 years ago. The notion that Black Beauty is a sedimentary rock has encouraged some astrobiologists to think there might still be the possibility of life on Mars..

Types of meteorites collected by Dr. Piatek and others include shergottites, which are the most common type of meteorite from Mars, and attractive colorful pallasites, which often have clear luminous crystals embedded in a grey matrix of iron or nickel. Another interesting group of meteorites are the carbonaceous chondrites which often contain a high percentage of water and include some of the most primitive meteorites found on Earth. They can also contain some surprisingly complex organic molecules including those that are components of proteins and genes, the large molecules characteristic of life. are a student who does not test well?Ó Harrington repeated his opinion that there should be no more teacher time consumed in being bogged-down collecting data. Rather, all concerned need to work together to solve the mediocre attitude.

Harrington drew attention to the point that she had been looking over upcoming common core curricula. She made the point that there are homework assignments every night, including Fridays.

Harrington added that each following days program works off the previous night’s homework.

“How do I move forward,” she said. “I am disappointed. We have been at this issue since mid-summer and I don’t know what more I can say to affect anyone changing their mind on this issue, so I thank you for your time.”

At this point, the homework policy stands unchanged.

oil inclusive of service and maintenance on the pellet boiler. Dungate addressed questions from individual members of the board and informed the board that the pellet boiler will be installed during the summer recess in 2015.

Regarding new oil fired boilers, Brand informed the board that project plans and specifications have been submitted to NYSED for review and approval. Mike Harris of Bernier Carr & Associates (BC&A) will be on hand during the January 20, 2015 board meeting to provide an update on the project.

Brand informed the board that part of the pellet boiler and new oil boiler installation will require removal of the old oil tank next to the boiler room. This work will be performed as a shared services project with the Hamilton county highway department and the Town of Indian Lake highway department. This removal project will require coordination of schedules among the highway departments and project contractors.

• Mrs. Tetrault, ILCSD Business Manager and Treasurer, provided copies of the general support, operations and maintenance sections of the 2015/2016 budget for review. The budget reflects a $39,000 increase over these same portions of last years budget sans teachers requisitions.

• Projected enrollment for ILCSD was outlined as: 124 students in 14/15; 115 in 15/16; 116 in 16/17; and 114 in 17/18.

• The board approved the following: Level

change for Lizette Pierson from M1-0 to M130; Gwen Messersmith-Calkins for substitute pending fingerprints; Rate change to $10 per hour for cafeteria substitutes, cleaner substitutes; The establishment of an Electronic Entertainment Club • Regarding Policy No. 5241, (Property tax exemptions for Veterans), the board discussed the policy.

Voorhees asked to get more specifics as to the rates of exemption per veteran’s specific service complexion. Other members raised as a downside the issue that under the current State Proposal, the tax burden will be passed to other real property taxpayers.

It is noted that during the public participation section at the start of the meeting, Chris Jackson introduced himself as a PA at the Health Center in town and addressed the Board arguing that vets go through a lot of hardship and we should do our part to provide whatever help we can to Veterans. He formally requested the board to vote in favor on the policy.

Voorhees remarked that what was involved was, Ó a little more complicated than a yea or nay vote.”

He read a litany of other steps and considerations that needed to be weighed in the decision process. Voorhees thanked Jackson for his interest and recommendation for a positive vote.

The next regular meeting of the ILCS Board of Education will be Jan. 20, 7 p.m. in the school cafeteria.

The Arctic Spear Fishermen landed the award for Best Team Spririt at the “Feelin’ Long Lakey Polar Plunge” on Saturday, Dec. 27.

Plunge

Continued from page 1 Bateman was joined by retired Army Engineer Tim Touchette and Marine Joel Deloria, who had served in Iraq and Afghanistan, to judge the roster of colorful characters.

New York City-based comedian and producer Peter Michael Marino was bought in to MC the event.

“My job is to make sure everyone is having a good time,” he said, “from plungers to esteemed onlookers.”

Last year, two inebriated yahoos, deemed Thing One and Thing Two, showed up and heckled him.

“So that’s something you have to deal with in a comical way,” he said.

He walked over to the beach and scanned the crowd.

Thing One and Thing Two were absent this year, he noted.

“Everyone move closer,” he urged the crowd. “It makes us warm and makes us look bigger in the pictures.”

The crowd huddled.

Marino passed around a bag

and said if folks donated $100, he’d take the plunge, too.

A ceremonial bag of ice, donated by Long Lake mainstay Hoss’s Country Corner, was dumped in.

“In the Adirondack spirit, take out what you brought in,” Marino cracked.

In the water bobbed five members of the town’s rescue squad.

Marino briefed the crowd on the history of polar plunges.

The first was held in Coney Island in 1903.

“Is there anyone here from Coney Island?” he asked.

“I am,” said Carmine Inserra, of the Adirondack Hotel.

“So jump,” said Marino.

Inserra declined, but lauded the event.

“It’s great cause, wonderful,” he said.

And then the plunging began.

Most got a running start, gained momentum down the incline and waded into the dark waters, like Team Kickerville, who brought in $1,430.

Daniel Gereau took a running start and dove in.

The Arctic Spear Fisherman

whooped, hollered and attacked the waters like an angry foe.

Some came from faraway, like the Rubber Ducks, one of whom, Matthew Martin, remains in active duty.

“These ducks don’t float,” said Marino.

The timid, like those who failed to submerge, solicited good-natured boos.

“It’s a little cold,” said participants as they emerged.

Marino laughed at the refrain.

After the last plunger, attendees and participants drifted into the Adirondack Hotel to dry off and to collect their “big plastic prizes.”

In all, the 43 polar plungers raised $4,796 for the Wounded Warrior Project, the veterans service organization that offers programs for wounded vets.

And Marino got his, too, after on-the-spot fundraising nabbed $505.

After the last participant, the rescue squad emerged from the depths, grabbed Marino and tossed him in.

“Piece of cake,” he chattered.
