This Week Ministry protects heads with helmets

By Ryan Edwards ryan@denpubs.com

JOHNSBURG Ñ Erin Dunkley looks on with measured anticipation as her six-year-old son, Hudson, bends low and digs his mitt into the clay to snag a ground ball at his first ever little league practice.

Last year, HudsonÕ s mitt wouldnÕ t reach the groundÑ he was playing from a wheelchair.

It all began the day before Easter 2014, when Dunkley noticed Hudson was walking strangely. At first she thought nothing of it, as Hudson has been loosejointed from birth, she said.

Then, when it was time to get up off the floor where he was playing, Hudson couldnÕ t stand.

Frantic and fearing for the worst, Dunkley brought Hudson to the emergency room at Glens Falls Hospital.

The doctors could find nothing amiss, but Dunkley knows her son Ñ she knew that something wasnÕ t right.

Unsatisfied, she brought Hudson to the Shriners Hospital for Children in Boston, where he was misdiagnosed with epiphyseal dysplasia Ñ a genetic disorder which affects the growing ends of bones Ñ which a specialist later refuted.

Because of the enigmatic nature of his symptoms, it was determined to be in HudsonÕ s best interest that he be taken off his feet and placed in a wheelchair.

Hudson spent almost three months in that chair, no one knowing if he would ever come out of it again.

The doctorsÕ advice: wait six months and see what happens. Ò That wasnÕ t acceptable to me,Ó Dunkley said.

Instead, she took to the Internet and found Hudson a new doctor in New York City, the only one in his field for Hudson’s age Ñ Dr. David Godfried of the Hospital for Joint Diseases.

DunkleyÕ s friends and family were wary Ñ North Creek to NYC is a big jump, and Hudson had already seen his share of doctors.

W A R R E N S BURG Ñ N orth Country Ministry, in their continuing effort to help and protect children, will start a new program this spring.

The program will promote bicycle safety though education and the issuance of free bicycle helmets. The program, funded by the National Traffic Safety Administration with a grant from the GovernorÕ s Traffic Safety Committee, hopes to limit the seriousness of bicycle crashes by encouraging the wearing of bicycle helmets and safe riding techniques.

The program is run by Joe Klewicki who also oversees North Country MinistryÕ s ChildrenÕ s Car Seat Program.

Joe credits wearing a bicycle helmet to saving his life in a serious bicycle crash and points out that there are over 500,000 bicycle crashes annually. Helmets are required to be worn by all children, Joe also points out that New York law can impose a $50 fine to the parent of any child under the age of 14 not wearing a bicycle helmet.

To qualify for a free helmet, parents must be residents of North Country MinistryÕ s service area in Warren County and meet financial requirements.

The bicycle helmet must be fitted to the individual child. Evening and afternoon hours are available at our Warrensburg Center, 3933 Main Street. Any parent who is interested should call 623-2829 for more information and to make an appointment.

Johnsburg 28, ELCS 11

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ The Lady Jaguars scored 14 runs in the third inning to blow open a close game at the time against the Lady Lions April 27.

Sara Person, on in relief of Dezore Cleveland, scored the victory on the mound, helping herself at the plate by hitting a pair of doubles.

The Jaguars totalled 14 hits in the game, with Valeri Gereau leading the way with four hits, including a triple. Makayla Denno drove in five Jaguars thanks to a trio of doubles and Meghan Pierson added a triple.

SCHROON Ñ You canÕ t give a good team extra outs.

With two outs in the top of the fourth and no runs across in a 7-6 game, the Schroon Lake Lady Wildcats had a chance to record the final out on a foul ball against the Crown Point Lady Panthers.

The pop-up was not caught, however, and the Panthers pounced on the second life, scoring 10 runs before the Wildcats were able to record the final out.

The 10 run inning for the Panthers came off the heels of a six run bottom of the third by the Wildcats, keyed by clutch twostrike at bats from Dakota Gadway and Molly Wisser and capped by a three-run triple off the bat of Brooke Wheeler.

Brittany Foote connected on a deep three-run home run as part of the 10-run fourth for the Panthers, one of her three hits on the day. Shawna McIntosh added two doubles and a single, while Amber Dushane singled twice.

For the Wildcats, Angela Allen added a triple to the offensive effort.

Keene 13, Johnsburg 8

Hudson

Continued from page 1 But Dunkley wouldnÕ t be deterred. Ò We have to at least try,Ó she said.

This time the diagnosis was correct Ñ avascular necrosis.

The condition, which most commonly affects adults between the ages of 30 and 60, is characterized by interrupted or reduced blood-flow to a bone, resulting in the death of bone tissue due to lack of blood supply.

By the time he was diagnosed, HudsonÕ s blood had eroded close to two inches of bone in his left femur.

A solution in sight

To both DunkleyÕ s relief and her dismay, Dr. Godfried recommended that Hudson undergo major surgery on his leg.

The procedure, called an osteotomy, would require Dr. Godfried to cut and tilt Hudson’s bone to allow the blood to flow correctly.

Fearing the consequences of inaction, Dunkley gave her blessing for the procedure, and Hudson and his family returned to N.Y.C. for his surgery on July 3, 2014.

The surgery was a success; unfortunately in this case success meant that Hudson had lost an inch of bone from his leg and gained two plates and six screws in its place.

Dunkley was stunned to find that, had the condition not been corrected at this age, it would have become non-correctable later in life, and Hudson would never have been free of his pain.

Hudson spent another eight weeks in his wheelchair, six of them in a spica castÑ essentially a body cast with one leg and both arms freeÑ back home in Bakers Mills.

Because he was in traction and the equipment wouldn’t fit in his bedroom, the layout of the DunkleyÕ s ranch home underwent a major transformation to accommodate Hudson while he healed.

Both HudsonÕ s and his parentsÕ beds were moved into the living room, where they all slept until the cast was removed, four weeks before Hudson started kindergarten.

With only 25 percent mobility in his left hip, Hudson will likely walk with a limp all his life, and will possibly need to wear a lift in his shoe to maintain equal length in his legs.

A small, good thing

Hudson returns to the Big Apple every three months to see Dr. Godfried, and before his most recent visit last month, Dunkley had begun to notice a slight regression in HudsonÕ s movements, and a familiar wave of fear and uncertainty crashed over her.

However, unlike so many others, this visit brought the Dunkley family some overdue good news.

HudsonÕ s symptoms were an expected and necessary part of the healing process, and Dr. Godfried was satisfied with his progress.

But that wasnÕ t all Ñ at this visit, Dr. Godfried gave the greenlight for Hudson to hit the baseball diamond on his two feet.

Dunkley recalled the visit pleasantly: Ò What do you want to do?Ó Dr. Godfried asked Hudson, referring to physical activities, which needed to be cleared by him. Ò I want to play baseball!Ó Hudson replied, brimming with enthusiasm.

Dr. Godfried paused to think it over. Ò OK,Ó he said. Ò You can play baseball, but no sliding!Ó Last year, t-ball season began and ended during HudsonÕ s stint in a wheelchair, before his surgery.

While the coaches allowed Hudson to play, he did so from his chair, elated just to be out on the field with his friends.

In those days, HudsonÕ s teammates chased after the ball and passed it onto him so he could throw it in.

This year, however, playing for the Johnsburg Black Diamonds, Hudson can field the ball entirely on his own.

And like his riverine namesake, Hudson continues to march forward, no matter what obstacles lay in his path. Ò YouÕ ll see him run stiff, but youÕ ll never see him stop running,Ó his mother said.

According to Dunkley, Hudson maintained this unshakable resiliency from the very beginning. Ò He did not complain once,Ó she said. Ò He was better than me.

I was crying all the time — he was fine.”

Dunkley recalled a particular memory she shared with her son when Hudson was still in his chair and she was beginning to feel hopeless: Ò We are a religious family,Ó she said. Ò But I had stopped going to church because I was too angry. On motherÕ s day, I asked Hudson what he wanted to do, and he said, Ô Mom, letÕ s go to church.Õ Ò I was crying in the pew,Ó she continued, Ò and Hudson was up in the front row dancing in his chair.Ó

A community rallies

Dunkley said that she has the Johnsburg community to thank for helping pull her family through these trying times. Ò Our community has supported us 110 percent,Ó Dunkley said. Ò ItÕ s like everyone was Ô Team Hudson.Õ Ó Small benefits were held in the area, as well as a GoFundMe account, to raise money for the Dunkley familyÕ s substantial medical expenses, which included a donation from the North Country Hardship Fund.

When they learned he would need a wheelchair, HudsonÕ s family were timid about sending him back to pre-k because of the added burden on the faculty, but when Hudson returned to school he was set up with his own table in the classroom and his classmates fought regularly over who would have the honor to push his wheelchair down the hall.

HudsonÕ s parents are unsure whether or not he will be able to play for the whole season, but they are taking it one day at a time.

If his first practice was any indication, Hudson won’t be slowing down anytime soon. Ò I like baseball,Ó he roared at practice. Ò I like to run!Ó Hudson has one more surgery in 2016 to have the plates and screws removed.

His mother asked him, Ò What do you want to do after your surgery?Ó Ò I want to go to Disney World!Ó Hudson beamed.

Six-year-old Hudson Dunkley of Bakers Mills played t-ball last season from his wheelchair (above). He participated in his first ever on two feet baseball practice on Tuesday, April 21 (below), after undergoing major surgery on his leg last year to correct a bone disorder that forced him to play t-ball from a wheelchair.

Weddings

having inappropriate contact with 16-year-old girl

JOHNSBURG Ñ An Adirondack man was arrested April 22 following a police invstigation of his alleged inappropriate contact with a 16-year-old girl.

35-year-old Christopher Lee Hayes of Ernest Smith Road in Adirondack was charged with one count of disseminating indecent materials to a minor in the second degree, a class E felony, one count of sexual abuse in the third degree, a class B misdemeanor, and two counts of Endangering the welfare of a child, a class A misdemeanor.

The Warren County Sheriff’s Office was called to a residence in the town of Johnsburg on April 21, where they found evidence of inappropriate conversations between Hayes and the girl via facebook, spanning back as far as March.

It was determined at that time Hayes also sent the girl several photographs and videos of his genitalia and that he had engaged in inappropriate physical contact with the girl as well.

Hayes Hayes was arraigned in Johnsburg Town Court and released on his own recognizance to reappear on May 1. A no-contact order of protection was issued on behalf of the victim. The case was investigated by investigator Russ Lail of the Warren County Sheriff’s Office.

Fundraising campaign to help replace stolen marker Hodge-Goodspeed

Denise Taylor Hodge and Taylor Sterling Goodspeed were united in marriage on April 11, in a small family ceremony on Makapuu Beach, Oahu.

The bride was assisted by her maid of honor, Kayla Gonzales and the groom was assisted by his best man and brother Jay Goodspeed.

The bride is the daughter of Michele Norris and Steve Norris of Fredericksburg, Virginia.

The groom is the son of Susan and Sterling Goodspeed of Newcomb.

The bride is employed at Tripler Medical Center, Honolulu as a United States Army surgical technician. The groom is a National Guard Combat Medic and is attending the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Following the ceremony the families enjoyed a luau on the North Shore of Oahu.

The couple will reside in Honolulu, Hawaii.

JOHNSBURG Ñ Johnsburg Historical Society is excited to announce the launch of a campaign to raise funds for the replacement of a stolen roadside historical marker honoring famed Civil War photographer Mathew Brady.

The campaign will be live for 60 days on Adirondack Gives, Adirondack FoundationÕ s crowdfunding site. The site connects Adirondack region fundraising campaigns with people who want to help.

Two years ago, the society paid for a roadside historical marker commemorating Mathew Brady, who was born in the Town of Johnsburg. The marker was erected near BradyÕ s birthplace and placed at a pull-off in Wevertown on State Route 28, where drivers and pedestrians could safely stop and read about the “Father of Battlefield Photography.” In August, 2014, the handsome sign was stolen from state property, with post and concrete footing were removed as well. Police have been investigating.

The cast iron sign in the familiar blue and yellow color is similar to markers seen all across New York State where places of historical significance are recognized.

This project was a huge expense for the small historical society. JHS needs to find almost $2,000 to replace the sign. To help support this effort, go to the website adirondackgives.org.

“The theft of the Mathew Brady historic sign placed by JHS was not only a difficult financial loss but also an insult on our mission to promote an awareness of our communityÕ s history Ð a moral slap in the face to the many volunteers and supporters of JHS,Ó said Delbert Chambers, president of Johnsburg Historical Society.

Roberts Auditorium Continued from page 1

Who he was

Fresh out of Schenevus High School, Roberts was offered a position as a live-in tutor to three brothers from a wealthy family at their home on Seagull Lake in Cooperstown.

He accepted the offer, and it was during the time he spent at their lakeside abode that he decided to pursue what became a life-long career in education.

From there, he set off for what was then Albany State College with only $50 to his name.

He worked his way through school at the Albany railroad yard, and when he graduated, he took a job as a school principal in the quiet Adirondack town where he would shape his lasting legacy.

Roberts began his 35-year tenure at was then Newcomb Union Free School in 1925, and within one year of his dedicated service the school became one of the first 15 schools in the state to meet all curriculum requirements and achieve centralization status, becoming what is today Newcomb Central School.

Over the following decades, Roberts was responsible for the 1926 addition of a dual gymnasium and auditorium, the organizing of the school’s first athletic teams — including a championship basketball team, which he coached Ñ the initiation of one of the first kindergarten programs in the state, as well as one of the first hot lunch programs in the Adirondacks, the addition of two classrooms at the main school and the construction of a K-3 elementary school in Tahawus.

During his time at NCS, Roberts never missed an unnecessary day of school, an art exhibit, an athletic event or any music or drama production.

Under his influence and leadership, NCS became a leader in academics and athletics, resulting in numerous scholarships for his graduates and accolades for his athletes. Ò When he was a coach, he never hollered at his players,Ó recalled RobertsÕ only daughter, Margery Witherell, Ò but if they noticed him crossing and uncrossing his knees during a game, whispers went around that Ô Prof.Õ wasnÕ t happy.Ó He was so dedicated to the continued scholastic and athletic development of his pupils that Witherell could recall at least three students that Roberts personally drove to their college interviews, at which he secured all three athletic scholarships.

Among his customary directives to NCS athletes was the adage, Ò You are to do your very best to win, but, while winning, the opposition is to leave our school liking us.Ó Roberts stepped down as principal and superintendent in 1960, and he spent his retirement with his wife, Alma, between their homes in Cooperstown Ñ on Seagull Lake Ñ and Sarasota, Fla. Even as a retiree, RobertsÕ commitment to the education community was unwavering, as he continued to fight for improved retirement benefits for New York teachers, frequently attending

Roberts died in 1991 in Cooperstown.

News Enterprise • May 2, 2015 | 5 simple things, like time spent in his vegetable garden, or out in the woods picking berries. Ò He loved to pick wild berries. He would always bring us back with the biggest, juiciest ones,Ó Witherell said.

Ò With exceptional vision and instructional leadership that provided 35 years of academic and athletic excellence that will never be matched in the future. He is truly deserving of this honor.Ó Roberts was a role-model, a counselor and an advocate for both his students and his faculty, Gereau added.

Mary Jane Rice, who graduated from NCS in 1945 and went on to teach Home Economics at the school for three years, had Roberts as a principal, teacher, friend and mentor.

Rice’s first year as a Home Economics teacher was a new experience for her as well as for Roberts, as it was the first year the class was offered at the school. Ò He was a good person to start a career with,Ó she said, Ò because he gave me the confidence I needed, and the support.Ó As a life-long friend of Witherell, Rice was invited to tag along for all of the Roberts family outings from picnics to skiing trips, which she remembers fondly more than half a century later.

“He was a big influence in my life,Ó she said. Ò He was just was a very easy person, and a very fun person, too.Ó Roberts is remembered by many for his passion for education and his dedication to his school, but for his daughter, he will always be remembered Lyle Roberts in front of the Newcomb Central School from the June-July 1960 Tahawus Cloudsplitter.

Build it, and they will come

his past March, town officials in Lake George awarded a construction bid for a skateboard park first proposed seven years ago.

About a month later, in Saranac Lake, an 11year push for a skate park in the village reached the $300,000-plus fundraising mark necessary to start pouring the concrete.

We have this to say – finally.

And other municipalities should follow suit in a timely manner.

Underserved If a kid wants to play basketball, itÕ s easy.

Schools, parks, even the hoop in the driveway.

Soccer goals, baseball diamonds, football fields Ð traditional team sports are about as accessible as can be. All it takes is a pair of shoes and a ball.

Teens on wooden decks with four wheels, meanwhile, have been left rallying behind the Ò skateboarding is not a crime,Ó cry for years, dodging authorities as they participate in what was, if not still is, looked upon as a counterculture sport.

TheyÕ re right. Skateboarding isnÕ t a crime.

But property destruction, trespassing, or in some places, riding on streets, is. A town without a skatepark becomes a skatepark. ItÕ s what has put the sport in contention with police and municipalities for decades.

Some places adapted and built parks, providing skateboarders with the same opportunities as any other sport-seeking youth. Studies have pointed toward correlations between public skateparks and a reduction of crime and complaints. Skateboarders seek rails, ledges, stairs, banks, a variety of rideable features, and one would be hard pressed to find a skater who wouldn’t choose a professionally designed park over potholed streets traveled by cars and pedestrians.

With the rise of skateparks has also come a decline in risk. Virtually all skateboard fatalities have happened away from parks, most involving automobiles. Just this April, a 13-year-old skateboarder was airlifted to Syracuse in critical condition after a collision with a truck in Watertown. It’s not the first incident of its kind in the area, nor will it be the last if skateboardersÕ only option is to take to the streets.

And then thereÕ s this: perhaps the most basic but important part of the equation Ð most skateboarders are kids who chose the sport as a way to get outside and be active, a way to spend time with friends or challenge themselves.

Maybe they dream of being great at it. Maybe some will be. But theyÕ ll all enjoy it.

But only if given the chance.

Locals stepping up Through the microscope of the park projects

in Lake George and Saranac Lake, the work undertaken by youth and adults, from the lobbying to fundraising, is commendable. Nearly a third of the price tag for Saranac LakeÕ s concrete park came from village in-kind funds, supporting the replacement of a skatepark that was the basketball equivalent of a dirt court with a bottomless milk crate for a hoop. Even the skaters in that town raised $60,000 themselves.

For the skateboarders who helped make the projects come to fruition, itÕ s been a lesson in patience and perseverance. For the non-skateboarders, the support was a selfless act in recognition that the sport need not be a crime.

But what took so long? Skateboarding Ð as well as action sport cousins like rollerblading and BMX biking Ð made a meteoric rise in the late 1990s. From the X Games to Tony HawkÕ s video game franchise, it went from fringe to mainstream.

Skateboarding may have cooled some in the last decade Ð the amount of time its taken to get some local parks funded and OKÕ d Ð but it still boasts nearly 10 million participants nationwide as an established sport.

Build it and they will come These parks will draw local skaters and tourists alike. They may not generate millions in revenue, but a vacation-planning family may take note of a place where a son or daughter can skate. Meanwhile, our area youth will be drawn to a place where they can skate in relative safety. It may be dangerous, but no more so than virtually any other school-sanctioned team sport.

Skateboarders in Saranac Lake and Lake George, as well as our communities that already have parks, wonÕ t have to slink around town while dodging cars and potentially damaging property. This will help erode a longstanding misconception that has likely contributed toward communitiesÕ hesitance to fund parks in the first place – that skateboarders are delinquents.

What if baseball players were forced to find a parking lot in which to swing a bat? Surely the broken windows and dented cars that would result would taint the viewing of them.

No, skateboarders aren’t misfits, nor should they be treated as such. In an era of hours of screen time and youth obesity, we need to embrace recreational opportunities whether they involve a ball or a board. The cost of a lowmaintenance park is a small price to pay when the outcome local kids that are happily active and engaged.

Ads makes difference in fight

Thankful

To the News Enterprise: Is anyone else disturbed by the Tips From a Former Smoker ads on TV? The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) just announced a new campaign that started March 30. IÕ ve seen one new ad so far. JuliaÕ s story. Julia smoked for more than 20 years before developing colon cancer at age 49. Her Ò tipÓ is to have a strong stomach. She explains that if you get colon cancer and have to have your colon removed, you will need to have an ostomy bag taped to your stomach to collect your waste. She talks about always being worried that the bag will smell or leak when she is in public. Julia is incredibly brave to speak so honestly, but as I watched I wonderedÉ will her story and this campaign really make a difference?

The good news is evidence suggests that these ads do make a difference. According to the CDC, smokers report that the ads inspire them to try to quit. And we know that more smokers are really trying after seeing these ads because there is an increase in the number of calls to the Quitline. Take for instance the last campaign that launched in July 2014.

During the three months prior to that campaign, the highest number of calls in one month from Clinton, Essex, Franklin and Hamilton counties combined was 206. In July, there were 242 calls (NYS Quitline). ThatÕ s a fifteen percent increase!

So as much as I donÕ t want to see the painful ways that tobacco has effected peopleÕ s lives, IÕ m thankful people like Julia are willing to share their stories. They really are making a difference and saving lives.

The fire had started to spread to the wall on the top floor. Our volunteers were able to quickly extinguish it. Also, Many Thanks to our neighboring communities for their Mutual Aid. We feel very fortunate to call Minerva our home! And please support your local Fire Dept. and EMS volunteers.

Common Core a bad idea To the News Enterprise: You began your editorial concerning Common Core with Ò EveryoneÕ s frustrated.Ó So itÕ s logical to surmise that if everyone is frustrated then all of us canÕ t be wrong. When something comes along in the education that irritates teachers, parents and students, then you have the perfect hornetÕ s nest of activity. When these same groups are left out of the discussion, you best expect some push-back.

Your editorial board claims, too, that education has Ò turned into a political game.Ó Well, who turned it into political issue? The politicians, of course, and they have partnered with liberal corporate leaders such as Bill and Melinda Gates and Pearson Publishing. So it goes beyond politics with partisan think tanks and liberal non-educators spreading their tentacles far and wide. Local and state authority are minimized when this happens.

The U.S. put a man on the moon and back to earth with math from the 40Õ s, 50Õ s and 60Õ s. What was wrong with that kind of math curriculum?

Nothing as far as I can tell. TodayÕ s students can hardly add or subtract things in their heads without a calculator. IÕ m guessing the use of calculators is when all of our troubles started. And now they have to decipher squares, cubes, lines, and dots to figure out simple mathematical problems. This is academic stupidity!

Listen, a bad idea is a bad idea. Common Core needs to be replaced with common sense; and what worked 70 years ago still works today. We need to go back to a time where schools taught the basics, taught discipline, and taught real critical thinking. Why try to re-invent the wheel to make 1+1 equal 2.4? It wonÕ t work and itÕ s clearly evident that everyone is frustrated because itÕ s not of their own doing.

“What is something that makes you really angry?”

Mrs. WatsonÕ s Third Grade Johnsburg Central School Lainey Freebern: Ò What makes me very angry is bullying. I donÕ t like it because bullies are mean and unkind. To get my anger to go away, I breath in and out and sometimes just draw a picture of animals or my friends makes me feel better.Ó Nathan Lorenson: Ò I get really angry when people pick on me. I will tell an adult that someone is picking on my. I usually get picked on in my house.

I tell my brother Luke to help me settle down. I go to my room and play with my cars. That makes me feel better.Ó Tristan Millington: Ò Something that makes me really angry is how my baby sister Trinity bothers me while IÕ m playing with my hotwheels cars on my mom and dadÕ s bed. Trinity comes in and gets on the bed and wrecks the track and the line of cars so I have to fix it.”

Tanner Baker: Ò Something that makes me really angry Cadence and Scott sometime they say something I donÕ t like. I close my eyes, count to ten, and try to ignore them.Ó Corbin DeGroat: Ò Someone that makes me really angry is my brothers and sister. Sometimes they make me really angry because they just say really mean things about me so angry.

how I get rid of my anger.Ó Joel Rivera: Ò I get angry when I donÕ t pass a board on Super Mario Galaxy. I just take my cat when IÕ m angry. I play another game when IÕ m angry.

To overcome anger, I watch Netflix. I also get angry when I don’t get to play the game system.Ó Scott Patton: Ò One thing that makes me really angry is when someone says I am wrong when I am right and doesnÕ t say I am sorry. I say whatever, and walk away. That is what I would do when someone makes me mad.Ó Sean Bibby: Ò Something that makes me angry is when my dog Murphy, who is a boy and always follows me around wherever I go. My mom got him for me when I was in school at a play where people save animals that are abused. My mom knew I wanted a dog. So thatÕ s why my mom got me a dog. He will not stop following me around. He is not a family dog either.

I have to put up with it all the time. I own the dog. When the dog wants to eat he sticks his nose in the air and sticks his tongue out and runs inside the house. Oh, is he a pain. That is what makes me angry.Ó Helena Batha: Ò Something that makes me angry is, my sister when she kicks me, pulls my hair, bites me, hits me, takes my things and tattles on me! I usually take a deep breath or sing the alphabet, I blow away my anger.

After my sister tattletales on me, I usually trip her. That is what makes me really angry and how I handle it.Ó Isabelle Waite: Ò My cat, Toonsie makes me really angry because just yesterday my family and I went out for a walk. We didnÕ t go on a trail. Instead we went to the bare woods. It all started when my mom didnÕ t see where she was going and she accidently went over a log tripped and fell in the snow.

Me and my mom burst into laughter. My dad just let out a few chuckles.

Then my mom tripped over the same log and almost poked her eye out.

Remember my cat Toonsie? Well, at that time Toonsie was climbing a tree.

I was wearing my black snowpants. Toonsie I thought I was on the log. He jumped on me with his claws out. There was a total silence then I screamed.

Toonsie jumped off and ran to his very secret hiding place. I never stopped screaming until I took a deep breath. We walked on until we got to a trail.

Mom told me to go get a sled and bring it to her. I did and we went sledding.

It was so fun! ThatÕ s what makes me so mad and how to solve it.Ó

F

irst off, I must publically thank my friends (they know who they are) for dropping by with goodies while Kaye and I sniffled and coughed through our personal encounter with the horrible stomach flu that has assailed this region.

They know Kaye’s affinity for dragon flies and gifted her with a beauty. They brought me a little stuffed horse named Ò Little Bits,” that I will always cherish as the official mascot for these weekly dribs and drabs in the paper.

All the o t h e r cards and good wishes were appreciated more than we can say. One of my dearest friends from a ghost town called Goshen in Peru,

by Gordie Little tapped lightly on the door last week and tiptoed into our kitchen carrying a bucket. I wasn’t sure at first if he had brought us throw-up pail to use for our tummy tumult, or had caught some fish for our frying pan.

None of the above. It was a pussy willow, complete with roots and water and ready for the planting. I was thrilled. He and I have exchanged one or more e-mails each day for years and there are few, if any, secrets that remain unshared.

Our conversations on the computer, on the telephone and at our respective kitchen tables, run the gamut of things that occupy our twisted minds. Topics range from flying C-119 cargo planes and B-52 bombers (heÕ s a retired US Air Force pilot) to drawing cartoons, swatting mosquitoes, antique cars, history and so much more.

He lives near a river bank and so do we.

ItÕ s only natural that our blather would get Ô round to pussy willows. Right? The words elicit so many fond childhood memories for him and for me and, hopefully, for you as well. My mother always had a pussy willow bush or tree near the house. They were the most wonderful harbingers of spring.

We loved bringing in the branches full of socalled catkins (flowers) and the lovely soft puffs that trigger our warm nostalgia.

The official name of the kind that grows in our neck of the woods is Salix discolor, in case you felt an uncontrollable need to know.

My friend says he has planted several on his property and I was hard put to tell him why I didnÕ t have at least one around here.

Now I do. The moment he drove out of the yard, I grabbed a beautiful antique woodenhandled shovel some anonymous person had left here, and strolled out back. I dug a nice hole by the bird bath on the river bank and unceremoniously plopped in the pussy willow, replete with roots, attached grasses and water. IÕ ll watch it and talk to it and nurture it. I truly believe that we can commune with nature in so many ways.

I have learned that, unless you prune them vigorously every year, pussy willows can reach 30-feet in height. I donÕ t suppose we want this one to block our view of the beloved Saranac River, so weÕ ll keep the pruning shears handy. Some gardeners even Ò stumpÓ by cutting them close to the ground each year before the leaves start to appear.

Just being able to bring the branches inside will further enhance our feeling that the seasons have indeed changed, in spite of their apparent reluctance to do so this year.

How many ways have you seen pussy willows arranged and displayed? To me, they are gorgeous stuck in a cracked vase or even an old soda bottle. Some might want to weave them into a wreath or other clever design.

I have learned that pussy willow roots are amazingly prolific and tough. Experts warn against planting them anyplace near your water pipes or septic system in order to stave off possible encroachment. Ò A word to the wise,Ó as my mother used to say.

I asked my friend what kind of pussy willow he brought me. His answer: Ò You have a Chesterfield.” I’m fairly sure that is not a genus or species, but the actual place where he found it by the side of the road and dug it up for Kaye and me.

ThatÕ s what friends do, you know.

Just the bear facts, man

W

hile the spring season has not yet arrived in all quarters of the region, itÕ s apparently on the way. Despite continuing cold weather patterns and a few, recurring snow showers, spring can be expected to make an appearance before summer arrives.

To date, the spring season has been rather slow to show, as winterÕ s cover has been reluctant to depart from the local ponds and lakes.

IÕ ve already heard the call of a loon, which is usually a harbinger of open water, but the recent call may have been just a long “brrrrrrrrr!, as the loon flew over after encountering another frozen pond.

While loons, and a host of other returning birds are still on the wing, I recently discovered evidence of a fellow spring traveler, when I nearly stepped in a pile of fresh bear poop in the back yard.

The discovery was verified by paw prints in the mud, and the black hairs of a bruin that were found on a nearby tree.

This is a time of year when bears disperse widely while seeking food, after their long, winterÕ s den. At the same time, bears will be staking out their territory by clawing and chewing trees in an effort to provide both visual and olfactory (scent) evidence of their presence.

As usual, there will always be a few local bears that wander off to the wrong place, as their keen sense of smell leads them to a birdfeeder or a collection of trash cans where they can find a ripe meal.

IÕ m old enough to recall the days when local folks would pile into the family station wagon, and drive off to the local dump to watch the bears. It was a popular means of entertainment, especially after all the local Drive In theatres closed down. Times sure have changed.

According to the DEC, black bears are curious, and opportunistic, creatures that quickly learn by association. All of these factors combine to produce frequent camper/bear interactions and problems. Bears are often attracted by enticing odors and soon they learn to overcome their natural fear of people as they attempt to obtain garbage or the camperÕ s food, usually after dark.

The weight of a bear tends to vary according to age, sex, health, and season, with large males tipping the scales at 600 lbs. or more; while the average bear ranges between 150-300 lbs. Females tend to be a bit smaller, but they can also reach greater weights under the right conditions.

Pre-den weights tend to be 30% higher than in spring, when black bears first emerge from their dens. The largest reported bear in New York State weighed approximately 750 lbs (live weight).

While black bears may often appear awkward and cumbersome as they plod along with their nose in the air, they are actually very fleet of foot and have been clocked at over 30 miles per hour. Despite their usual slow, methodical, pigeon-toe, gait, they can disappear in the blink of an eye. Although their eyesight is not always the best, their sense of smell is incredible.

Bear are omnivorous and eat vegetation including berries, fruits, plants and nuts which provides nearly 85 percent of their diet. They also eat fish, insects, small mammals and carrion; and their uncanny sense of smell, allows them to locate and prey on newborn whitetail fawns during the spring, and beehives during the summer months.

With an ever-expanding population, New York state is now home to an estimated population of 6000-7000 black bear; and while the Adirondacks have long been recognized for hosting the largest, bear population in the state; there are rapidly burgeoning bear populations throughout the southern tier of New York state.

According to DEC research, a bearÕ s weight tends to vary according to age, sex, health, and season, with large specimens exceeding 600 lbs with the average being between 150-300 lbs.

Females tend to be a bit smaller, but can also reach greater weights under the right conditions. Pre-den weights tend to be 30% higher than in spring, when black bears emerge from their dens.

According to DEC, the largest bear taken in New York State came from Franklin County in 1975. It weighed approximately 750 lbs (live weight) and stood nearly 7 feet tall.

However, the average black bear ranges from 4 -6 feet in length while walking on all fours and stands about 2-3 feet at the shoulder.

Although the average NY state, black bear weighs between 150-300 lbs. according to DEC, thereÕ s growing evidence of much larger specimens across the northeast, including a 776 pound black bear (live weight) that set a New Jersey state record when it was taken on Dec. 8, 2012.

The ink used to record the New Jersey State record bruin was barely dry when an 829-pound black bear (live weight) was taken the following day to break the former state record.

In recent years, there have also been some huge black bears taken in Pennsylvania including a 772 live weight specimen in 2013 and a monster, 829-pound live weight black bear thatproved to be one of the biggest black bears ever taken in North America. While the big, 772 pound bruin was not the heaviest black bear ever taken by a hunter, it had an enormous skull that scored 23 9/16 inches, and earned 50-year-old, Daniel Beavers, who killed the bear, a spot in the Boone and Crockett Club World Record book for the largest, black bear ever taken by a hunter.

Despite the impressive weight of the recent specimens, the current world record is a 733-pound black bear with a skull measuring 23 9⁄16 inches that was taken by Robert Christian of East Stroudsburg, PA in 2011.

Despite their incredible size and stature, Adirondack bears remain very wary of humans, and they try to avoid people at all costs, especially at this time of year, when bears are especially alert to outside scents in their immediate vicinity.

It is always wise to stay a long distance away from a sow with cubs, during the spring of the year. It is also wise to keep your distance from any bear moving rapidly through the forest with its nose to the ground.

Although black bears have a sharp sense of smell that that can reportedly pick up human scent from over a mile distant; they have relatively poor eyesight. As a result, itÕ s often easy to observe them as they go about their business, if you are downwind, and remain quiet and still.

If you do happen to encounter a bear by mistake, they will typically scoot off as fast as their four paws will take then, and when threatened, they will typically

The most dangerous encounters involve surprising a sow while in the presence of her cubs, or while near a food source. In such an incidence, it is important to make noise, and back away slowly while maintaining eye contact.

In the course of my 40-plusyear career in the woods, IÕ ve only come across a half dozen bruins, and I was never threatened. In fact, the only bear encounters I recall hearing about in recent years include a elderly lady in Old Forge who confronted a bear in her cabin and touched off a shot, and a young lady hiking along the Northville Placid Trail, who reportedly stabbed a cub bear with a knife, after being threatened by it.

Fortunately, NYSDEC has developed a variety of Bear Management policies intended to protect both black bear populations, and human populations. With a healthy, thriving population of bears across the state, it has become more common for hikers, campers and other outdoor enthusiasts to observe bear while afield.

Backpackers and hikers in the High Peaks Wilderness must now carry food, and garbage in bear proof containers. Homeowners have also become more aware of scavenging bears, robbing garbage or raiding bird feeders, especially during the spring.

Unfortunately, bears adapt to living around people much easier than people adapt to living around bears, and while bear/human encounters remain relatively rare; the opportunity is ever present with an estimated black bear population of five to six thousand animals in the Adirondack Region and 500-600 in the Catskill Region.

The Allegany Region contains about 100- 200 bears, and the population continues to grow.

In the effort to control bear populations, State officials have expanded hunting seasons statewide, with special early bear seasons in parts of the Catskills and the western Hudson Valley. The new regs resulted in a record number of bears being taken in New YorkÕ s Southern Zone the 2014 season. Statewide, hunters took 1,628 black bears last season, including 1,110 in the Southern Zone, which represents a13 percent increase over the previous year and well above the record total of 983 taken in 2011.

Ulster County produced the highest number of bears killed of any county in the state with a total of 192. Traditionally, the honor Ô Best Bear CountryÕ in NY state has been shared by the Adirondack counties of Hamilton, Essex and Franklin which have been responsible for producing the largest bears and the greatest total harvest of bears in the state.
