“It just made all the sense in the world for the two to come together,Ó Speach said.

Among the benefits of the merger, Speach said, is an expansion of arts and educational experiences for the community, improved communications, more efficiency and effectiveness in marketing efforts and a greater opportunity for grant funding.

During their relationship, both organizations were regularly in competition for the same grants, which CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

INDIAN LAKE — An Indian Lake teen was recently accepted into a prestigious wilderness science education program which will take her on a cross-country journey to study mountain glaciers and alpine landscapes with a number of professionals in the field.

Caroline Lomnitzer, a homeschooled student who recently completed her high school studies, was invited by an organization called Girls on Ice to join 17 other teenage girls from across the country in an expedition split up into two groups — one headed for an Alaskan glacier and the other to Washington StateÕ s North Cascades.

Caroline was accepted to attend the Washington trip, where she will explore an icecovered volcano called Mount Baker.

Through the program, the girls will be paired with three instructors and spend 12 days exploring and learning through scientific field studies with professional glaciologists, ecologists, artists and mountaineers.

Caroline applied for the same program last year, but was not accepted.

After her 2014 application was rejected, Caroline resolved to beef up her resume and try again this year.

She worked for an entire year, building her own home-

Indian Lake couple celebrates 70 years of marriage

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — The average life expectancy of humans at birth is 70 years, which means Frank and Fran Casazza of Indian Lake have been married for a lifetime and counting.

The couple celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary on Wednesday, July 1, and are as enamored with each other as the day they met, when they were only teenagers.

The Casazzas met on a fall day in 1942 at a high school in Patterson New Jersey, where they grew up.

Frank was a senior and Fran a junior when the two were introduced by mutual friends. They hit it off immediately, Frank said. Ò I was sorry when it was time to go to class, and I will always remember the way she walked away,Ó he said. Ò I was beguiled by her, and I knew then that I had to see her again, which I did every chance I got.Ó The two quickly became an item, and they didnÕ t care who knew it.

“As silly as this sounds it was the style for young men to wear bow ties when we were in high school,” Frank said. “If a girl and

a boy were going together it was the fad for them to wear the same style and color tie. It soon became known throughout the entire school of about 1200 students that we were going together since we often wore those ties.”

After high school, however, the couple were separated by an all-too-common hindrance of the era — World War II. Before graduation, Frank enrolled in an Army Air Corps cadet program, which allowed him to finish his senior year before he was sworn in. He passed all his exams and was accepted, and by July 1, 1943 Frank shipped off to basic training, where Fran wrote him every day.

In Aug. 1944, Frank was commissioned a second lieutenant and got his wings as an Army Air Force Navigator.

Frank was given a short leave after graduation, during which time he and Fran became engaged.

He was stationed with the eighth AF in England in the 446th Bombardment Group and flew ten combat missions over Germany in a B 24.

When the war ended in Europe, Frank returned to the states to be married.

Frank was so “pumped” to make Fran his wife that he navigated all through the night while everyone else on board was asleep — even the pilot. Frank used the bomb sight to make corrections in auto-pilot while the pilot slept soundly in the cockpit.

“I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep anyway,” Frank recalled. Ò So why not keep going?Ó He even convinced his crew to forgo an overnight stay in Greenland when they stopped to refuel so he could be reunited his beloved as soon as he possibly could.

The Casazza’s were married on July 1, 1945, when Frank was on a 30-day leave before leaving for training to transition from the European theater to the Pacific, where he was on assignment to bomb Japan.

“Fran made all the arrangements for the wedding, in every detail,” Frank recalled. “All I did was walk up to the altar.”

The Casazzas spent their honeymoon at Glenbernie on Lake George.

Now that they were husband and wife, Fran could accompany Frank at all of his assigned bases while he prepared to ship out for Japan.

Luckily for them both, however, Frank’s second overseas deployment never came.

America dropped the atomic bomb on Japan, and on Aug. 14, 1945, the war was over.

The Casazzas then began what they call a three-month honeymoon, while Frank was waiting to be discharged from active duty.

“All I had to do was call in every day and the rest of the day was free time,” Frank recalled. “We were on a base in San Marcos, Texas which was near San Antonio, so we went there often, had picnics in Brackenridge Park, ate ice cold watermelon from the push carts in the park, went to dances at the officer’s club, often ate dinner there as well, we swam in the crystal clear waters of the San Marcos river — we were having a ball.”

The Casazzas returned to New Jersey, where Frank attended Newark College of Engineering under the GI bill.

They had their first child, Karen, on Aug. 30, 1946, and moved from Fran’s parents’ house into their own apartment and began their lives as a young family.

They had another child, Michael, on Sept. 1, 1959, and have since become grandparents to Debbie, Sean and Kristyn.

As Frank worked his way up the corporate ladder at Universal Manufacturing Corporation, the family bought a summer camp on Indian Lake in 1968, which they winterized and converted into their primary residence in 1987.

Frank and Fran designed their new home themselves, and Frank did most of the construction from a scale model they built together.

On April 15 Frank turned 90 and Fran turned 89 on April 20, but age has not slowed them down, as both remain active members of the Indian Lake community.

After 70 years together, the only thing the couple would change about their lives is to be closer to their children, who live in Florida and California.

With 70 years in the books, the Casazzas look forward to what the future of their union will bring.

“We feel so blessed,” they agreed.

DEC to enhance cycling opportunities in Chain Lakes Complex RAY BROOK — Nearly 20 miles of administrative roads in the Essex Chain Lakes Complex in the Central Adirondacks will open to bicyclists beginning July 4, state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Joe Martens announced today. Allowing bicycling for the first time is part of a continued effort by New York State to promote tourism in the Adirondacks, improve access and expand recreational opportunities in the Essex Chain Lakes Complex. Ò These new bicycling opportunities are one of the many ways to enjoy the outdoors with picturesque views of the Essex Chain lakes,” said Commissioner Martens. “Through expanded recreational opportunities in these exceptional and scenic lands, the surrounding communities will benefit from an increase in recreational tourism, a key economic driver for the Adirondacks.Ó DEC has amended the Essex Chain Lakes Complex Stewardship Plan to allow bicyclists and people with disabilities to access designated administrative roads.

Commissioner Martens continued, Ò These biking opportunities add to the outdoor recreation appeal of the Essex Chain lakes, which is already a great destination for paddling, hiking, fishing and hunting. The state’s purchase of these former Finch Pruyn lands from The Nature Conservancy has opened public access for a variety of recreational activities by a wide range of users.”

The administrative roads open for bicycle use within the Essex Chain Complex (see map) are: · Eight and a half miles of the Chain Lakes Road North from the Goodnow Flow Road to the Cedar River; · Three miles of the Chain Lakes Road South from the Outer Gooley Parking Area to the Cedar River; · Two and a half miles of road connecting the Chain Lakes Road North to the Hudson River/ Polaris (Iron) Bridge Parking Area; · Two and a half miles of road around Deer Pond; · One and a quarter miles of the Drake’s Mill

Road connecting the Chain Lakes Road North to the Hudson River/Polaris (Iron) Bridge Parking Area; · One mile from the Chain Lakes Road South to Pine Lake; and · A third of a mile from the Chain Lakes Road North to Jackson Pond.

“Cycling is an activity enjoyed by people of all ages and abilities,” said Senator Betty Little.

“Combined with the beauty and fresh air of the Adirondacks, it becomes an unforgettable experience that surely will draw more tourists to the Essex Chain Complex. The great thing is that these roads exist. There’s no need to expend a lot of time, energy and money to create this recreational opportunity. As the chair of the senate tourism committee and representative of the region, I am hopeful this will be a boost the economies of our Central Adirondack towns.”

Assemblyman Dan Stec said, “The Essex Chain Lakes properties were acquired by the State in large part to increase public recreational opportunities and spur related economic development in the communities of the Central Adirondacks. I am encouraged to see this vision and promise begin to develop. It is good for these communities and all New Yorkers.Ó “DEC Commissioner Joe Martens and staff continue to deliver for Adirondack Communities,” said Brian Wells, Supervisor of the Town of Indian Lake. “They have made the commitment for these lands to be available for all to recreate on and they continue to work tirelessly towards this goal, and I commend for making this happen for our 2015 tourist season.”

Town of Newcomb Supervisor George Cannon said, Ò The opportunity to ride bikes on the many miles of roads in the Essex Chain Lakes Complex adds another recreational activity for the public on this property. Combined with the many other recreational activities available, biking provides additional economic potential for this magnificent addition to the forest preserve.Ó Adirondack Council Executive Director William C. Janeway said, Ò Thank you Governor Cuomo and Commissioner Martens for open-

ing some of the roads on the State’s new Essex Chain of Lakes property for mountain biking in time for the July 4th weekend. These lands and waters, now open to the public and protected as forever wild, are globally unique, ecologically rich and special. This action is part of protecting the Essex Chain of Lakes as motor-free, helping communities and establishing a snowmobile trail between the Hudson River and the Essex Lakes, while preserving water, land and wildlife for future generations.”

Neil F. Woodworth, executive director of the Adirondack Mountain Club, said, Ò The Adirondack Mountain Club is pleased to support the approval of mountain bike and cycling use of properly designated state administrative roads in the Essex Chain Lakes Primitive Area in accordance with the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan.Ó The Essex Chain Lakes Road South can be accessed from the nearby community of Indian Lake and the Essex Chain Lakes North and the

Deer Pond Parking Area can be accessed from the nearby community of Newcomb. Amenities for visitors to the Essex Chain Lakes Complex may be found in both communities.

In accordance with the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan, DEC can designate administrative roads open for bicycling through the Stewardship Plan until the Draft Essex Chain Lakes Complex Management Plan is finalized.

DEC proposes to permanently open these roads and trails to bicycles in the Draft Essex Chain Lakes Complex Management Plan which is currently available for public review and comment. In the interim, these roads will be open to bicycles starting July 4.

The draft plan may be viewed and downloaded athttp://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/97474. html. Public comments should be sent by July 27 to Corrie O’Dea, Forester, NYSDEC Lands and Forests, 232 Golf Course Road, Warrensburg, NY 12885 or e-mailed to R5.UMP@dec. ny.gov.

New Wild Walk takes visitors into the heart of the forest

By Pete DeMola

“I felt a great deal of hope that day in that boardroom, as did all who were present,Ó she said. “And I feel that same hope and pride here today — Tupper Lake is rising.”

Cuomo, too, chimed in — if only in spirit through a letter read to the crowd by Ulrich.

“It’s sure to be a great attraction for the Adirondack Park,” said Cuomo of the skywalk. Ò We have a governor who loves the Adirondacks like very few before him,” said Ulrich.

pete@denpubs.com TUPPER LAKE — A highly-anticipated new walkway at the Wild Center is now open, an experience that takes visitors deep into the heart of an Adirondack forest before bringing them up to the treeline.

ItÕ s an encounter that designers say is intended to transform the way visitors can see into the natural world by showcasing the perspective of the rest of nature, from earthbound critters to soaring eagles.

The $5.5 project, nearly a decade in the making, was designed to fully immerse people in nature, explained Chip Reay, the project’s designer.

Visitors make their way through a bird feeder alley before winding their way up the walk, which is supported by teepee-type poles and rails of white pine that mesh with the surrounding forest.

The incline is so gradual on the elevated trail, said a tour guide, it initially appears the poles are shrinking.

A series of bridges and platforms suspended 40 feet above the ground are dotted with observation points that offer a various views of the surrounding landscape.

The end destination?

A eagle’s nest that offers views of Whiteface Mountain and flashes of the Raquette River. Ò ItÕ s ambitious, itÕ s big, itÕ s delicate, itÕ s wonderful,” said Reay.

Hundreds explored the walk at its launch on July 4.

Kids scrambled on a spiderÕ s web that stretched 30-feet above the ground while others scampered through a reproduction of a hollow pine.

Up in the sky, dignitaries delivered their comments from the woven nest.

Wild day

Tupper Lake Mayor Paul Maroun recounted the decade-long journey that saw one of the nation’s premier museums find a home in this central Adirondack community, singling out Donald “Obie” Clifford, one of the center’s original ideological architects, for selling him on the idea.

“This is a wild day for Tupper Lake,” said Maroun.

Karen Thomas, a museum trustee, said the exhibit makes for a critical antidote to both urban dwellers and rural residents.

Even those in rural communities have less and less time to spend in the nature, she said. Ò Anyone with an inquisitive mind can journey up into the treetops, take in the view and take a deep breath,” Thomas said. “Infinite points of view, new ways of seeing.”

Rep. Elise Stefanik was more succinct as she took in the view on the hazy July morning: “I have one word — wow,” Stefanik said.

Sustainability

The Kanienkehaka Kaianerehkowa Kanonhsesne: People of the Way of the Longhouse Akwesasne Men’s Council made a cultural appearance at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake (Kanienke) on Saturday, July 4 for the launch of the Wild Walk, the Wild Center’s new interactive outdoor walkway. Rarahkwisere, the Wolf Clan representative, and Bear Clan representatives Kanaretiio and Kanaseraka presented a tree planting ceremony and delivered comments from the Eagle’s Nest, issuing thanks to the earth, but also reminding attendees to continue to be good stewards of the environment.

Photo by Pete DeMola Ò What a special day.Ó

Strong start

Visitors were equally effusive in their praise, like Jackie Zhang, a New York-based IBM staffer who was spending the week in the Adirondack Park with friends. Ò ItÕ s very nice,Ó he said, hugging his companion while adjusting his selfie stick.

Both of them wore tee-pee hats.

Wilson Tang, of Brooklyn, said the visit marked the latest stop in an itinerary that also included Whiteface Mountain, the Ausable Chasm and Lake George.

Will he come back?

“Definitely,” he said.

Over 10,000 have visited the Walk since June 27.

Museum officials hope the exhibit’s opening will boost attendance this year from 70,000 up to, and even past, the 100,000 mark.

It’s just one part of the Wild Center experience.

Indoors, at the museum that resembles a Great Camp, visitors come nose-to-nose with nature through a series of interactive exhibits, from frolicking otters to a pond that gently laps up against the atrium, an experience that is initially disorienting.

In late-June, the state launched an summer campaign encouraging travel to destinations across the state, including the Adirondacks.

“That kind of exposure has made a huge difference to us,” said Lynn Birdsong, the Wild

CenterÕ s board president.

Birdsong noted the $5.5 project was funded, in part, by $1.25 million in grants awarded to the North Country Regional Economic Development Council (the rest was, and continues to be, funded by private donors).

“They gave us the confidence to go forward with plan and complete this project,Ó Birdsong said. “It’s here and it’s wonderful.”

Regional Council co-chair Garry Douglas said funding the Wild Walk was an early priority project and an example of Gov. Andrew Cuomo delegating authority to the regional councils to pinpoint projects in their areas that will support economic development.

Douglas lauded the system as one that trusts locals to decide what the projects will be.

Funding applications for the Wild Walk were successfully put forward twice.

“It really is very much an example of the changed paradigm of how economic development is being done in the region thanks to Gov. Cuomo,” said Douglas.

Adirondack Park Agency Chairwoman Leilani Ulrich said the agency was “thrilled” when they first learned of the center’s vision and “awed” as they followed the process as it eventually became a reality.

Ulrich called Tupper Lake one of the Park’s most resilient communities.

When her agency first approved the plans for Wild Walk, said Ulrich, it was a satisfaction something only eclipsed when the board approved the Adirondack Club Resort project in January 2012, she said.

The projectÕ s landscape designer, William Palmer, said environmental stewardship has always been a keystone of the project.

“The idea from the beginning was to protect as many trees as possible,Ó he said.

The APA wanted to know exactly which trees were taken down and how many.

As work got underway, surgical incisions through the forest gave builders 10 feet on each side to work with in order to minimize the ecological footprint.

Trees are actually touching the edges of the Wild Walk, Palmer noted, while helium balloons were floated as part of a visual test to see if any elements of the exhibit are visible from elsewhere. Ò ItÕ s absolutely spectacular,Ó said Palmer. Ò The idea that was simply a long bridge has turned into something that is much more magical.Ó

Symbol of peace

Just like they did exactly nine years ago when the center first opened, the Kanienkehaka Kaianerehkowa Kanonhsesne: People of the Way of the Longhouse Akwesasne Men’s Council offered their blessings.

The three men planted a tree, beat a drum, yelled three times and then chanted softly as a small fire, fueled by tobacco, lifted both their song and smoke skyward, their words rising and falling through the trees.

Rarahkwisere, the Wolf Clan representative, was joined by Bear Clan representatives Kanaretiio and Kanaseraka.

The trio gave thanks to the earth in comments that were also streaked with caution. Ò Today we look around whatÕ s happening in our society, how a lot of things are taking place that is not good for our environment,” said the representative.

All people should be good environmental stewards to ensure future generations can enjoy what was given to us as a gift, he said.

The three yells, later explained one of the representatives, was to let the universe know that theyÕ re still there. Ò WeÕ re still alive. ItÕ s our way, like the birds that you hear in the wilderness here in the wildÉ you hear the birds, theyÕ re still here.

And so are we, weÕ re still here.Ó

Kids fishing derby kicks off Indian Lake July 4th festivities

By Bill Quinlivan

denpubs@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — The Indian Lake Blue Mountain Fish and Game Association got the celebration of our nation’s birthday off to an early and successful start this July 4.

Some 200-plus youngsters showed up early to Byron Park and registered for the event to enjoy a morning of fishing punctuated by free hot dogs, hamburgers and drinks, all made possible by the Fish and Game Association.

There was even an ongoing line of youngsters and parental supervisors making free ice cream sundaes with supplies provided by Stewarts.

Despite all the available food, most registered youngsters picked their respective spots lining the Shore of Adirondack Lake for some serious fishing and related activities.

The Derby started at 8 a.m. and loaner rods and reels were supplied to those registrants needing them. There was even a healthy supply of plump worms donated by Pines General Store of Indian Lake.

Besides fishing, there were a number of raffles and fishing–related contests that allowed contestants to try their luck and / or hone their skills while competing for prizes. The most notable of these was the casting contest, where contestants, under the watchful eye and skillful advice of the Association’s Bill Herrick, tried their hand at casting a weighted (and unhooked) line into two floating rings a number of yards off shore. Getting the line into a ring resulted in winning the choice of a prize from a number of donated, new fishing tackle items or some non-fishing related toys for those who were somewhat less devoted to angling.

For those devoted anglers with the luck and skill to land a fish, they quickly brought their catch to the weigh and measuring station to be recorded before being released back to the waters of Adirondack Lake.

The Indian Lake Blue Mountain Fish and Game Association made available numerous prizes to recognize and reward those catching the largest fish within several categories. One thing is certain, no body left a looser, because the real prize was the memory of a July 4th morning near the lake surrounded by family, friends and neighbors sharing in a great annual community event.

Indian Lake struts its stuff in honor of country and community

By Bill Quinlivan

denpubs@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — Clouds were building up to the north of town, threatening the possibility of putting a damper on the evenings July 4th Festivities, but that was not going to stop the community from conducting its annual parade celebrating the nation’s birthday and displaying the Indian Lake Community Spirit.

This year’s parade stepped off right on time at 7 p.m. from in

Indian Lake Garden Club celebrates the “flower power” that they bring to the task of beautification of the Town virtually year round.

front of the Town Hall on Pelon Road and marched down Main Street to in front of Byron Park where the firework display was scheduled for later in the evening.

The Parade was appropriately led by a color guard from American Legion Post 1392 headquartered in Indian Lake. They were surrounded by fire engines with lights and sirens saluting the 4th of July. Close behind was the red convertible carrying the paradeÕ s Grand Marshall, Jeanne Turner, who was also recently honored by the town as “Indian Lake’s 2015 Citizen of the Year”.

The community spirit continued with a number of floats developed and sponsored by local groups and businesses within the town. Among the floats in the parade was one sponsored by Hutchins Construction and co-developed by the local Girl Scout Troops. The float celebrated Native American Heritage that was also a meaningful part of the roots of the town’s history. Candies were thrown to the crowd along the parade route.

The Indian Lake Garden Club designed, built and decorated their float which was a flash back to the 1960’s, celebrating “flower power”. The club members were dressed in 60’s attire and even decorated the 4-wheeler tow vehicle to resemble a 60’s VW bug. The “flower power” theme really is a true reflection of the hard work of this club as it keeps the Town of Indian Lake beautiful with its many seasonal and flower displays virtually year-round. Those riding the float carried signs that harkened the “flower power” of the 60’s and threw daisies and other flowers out to those lining the parade route. The theme and bright attitude and attire of the members brought sunny smiles to all along the parade route in the face of the threatening clouds.

Among the other floats in the parade was one sponsored by a staple business of Indian Lake, namely, Pines General Store. The float carried members of the Pine family and celebrated summer in the Adirondacks as family members tossed small toys out to the crowd watching the parade.

Girls on Ice

Continued from page 1 school curriculum around environmental studies and performing household chores for an area tutor in exchange for additional class-time.

Through that process Caroline developed a passion for the study of climate change and its effects on the environment.

Satisfied with her new resume, Caroline once again submitted her application to Girls on Ice this January.

In March she was notified that she was selected from a pool of over 400 applicants as the top alternate for the program, and on Tuesday, June 23, she was informed that one of the girls who’d been accepted was injured and unable to attend.

Caroline and her mother Beth were thrilled to learn that sheÕ d be going out west to chase her dream after-all.

Caroline’s love of the outdoors and passion for the Adirondacks can be traced back to early childhood, when Beth reports she would regularly answer the question of what she hopes to do with her life with ‘I want to live in the wilderness.’

She intends to take pre-requisite courses at SUNY Adirondack in the fall so she can continue on to SUNY ESF Ranger School in Wanakena in the fall of 2016. She then plans on transferring to SUNY ESF in Syracuse to work on a bachelore’s degree in wildlife science.

As for her latest adventure, Beth said that Caroline is excited to get some experience in the field and to be given the opportunity to learn from seasoned professionals.

“It’s per perfect cup of tea,” Beth said. “She really likes to be outside, and she looks forward to doing some challenging stuff out there.Ó

Last, but not least, the parade was well seasoned with a number of interesting antique cars and patriotically decorated tractors for all to enjoy. The rain happily held off until the end of the parade. But, the rain did not thwart those waiting for the remainder of the evening’s festivities. Most went to their cars to wait out the rain or took shelter in the Byron Park community building. As if pre-planned, the rain stopped at around 9 p.m. in time for the annual firework celebration. Camping chairs began to line the lakeshore, the national anthem was sung by all and the fireworks ensued, while the community, in force, celebrated along.

A rising tide lifts all boats

D

o fast food workers deserve higher wages?

A panel assembled by the New York State Department of Labor unanimously determined last month that fast food employees deserve a significant wage increase.

The decision has sparked a heated debate across social media about who deserves what in American society.

How did we get here?

In the wake of fast food industry protests, earlier this spring Gov. Andrew Cuomo directed the labor department to create a three-person panel to study fast food wages in the state.

While the group has concluded that an increase is necessary, they have not yet made their full recommendation as to how extensive that increase should be.

The board is scheduled to meet on July 13 to continue its deliberations before an official decision is reached.

From there, the governor’s labor commissioner will either accept, reject, or modify the recommendation.

One of the board members said the wage should be set at a minimum of $15 an hour, “the lowest self-sufficiency standard in the state.”

The other two agree that the raise should be “substantial,” but should not lead to layoffs.

Although it should come as no surprise that fast food workers are underpaid, this figure has sparked outrage among those who believe those jobs not to be worth $15 an hour.

Our question is: Why? Why should anyone who puts in an honest week’s work have to struggle to keep a roof over their head and food on their table?

The board concluded that 60 percent of fast food workers are enrolled in at least one public assistance program. A significant increase in their wages would lift this burden from the taxpayers and place it deservingly upon the shoulders of employers instead who can unquestionably afford to pay it Ñ in this industry, at least.

For instance, the CEO of McDonald’s earns $9,247 an hour, compared to the average employee wage of $7.73.

Why should those at the top rung of the fast food ladder force it upon the taxpayer to keep their employees alive while they hoard a mountain of wealth to which they arenÕ t entitled?

It has been proven time and time again in a litany of academic studies, including the labor departmentÕ s research, that New YorkÕ s minimum wage of $8.75 per hour is far from a living wage, and that, had the minimum wage kept up with the rate of inflation over the years, it would have increased to just over $20 per hour by 2012.

So, to those who maintain the argument that fast food workers should not see an increase that raises

their pay above that of nurses or military personnel Ñ youÕ re right. No one in the country should be making less than $20 per hour.

But they are.

Now is the time for a rising tide to lift all boats.

In previous decades, a family in which both parents earned a minimum wage salary or slightly above could afford to make essential expenditures such as housing costs, food, vehicle payments, insurance and healthcare costs, all with cash left over for vacations and non-essential purchases.

This stability is nonexistent for minimum wage employees today.

The wage board has heard reports from dozens of workers who say they struggle to pay these everyday living expenses at the current minimum — which is set to raise to $9 per hour at years’ end, although, according to the workers, this will be of little help in making ends meet.

Providing a living wage to our fast food workers, and eventually to all minimum wage employees, will endow the working class with spending power that will undoubtedly result in a necessary shot in the arm for the economy.

A family who once relied on government assistance just to put dinner on their table could afford to shop for groceries at a farmers’ market rather than Wal-Mart, or eat at a local restaurant once a week Ñ maybe take a yearly vacation.

As it stands right now, these would-be consumers are making little contribution to the economy outside of essential spending.

Missing out on this revenue hurts everyone Ñ local business especially.

This increase is not charity; itÕ s what these workers are owed. It’s significantly less than what they’re owed, in fact.

Lifting these workers above the poverty line will allow them to re-claim a middle-class identity, which, in addition to allowing for them to make greater contributions to the economy, would provide them with a sense of financial stability which would afford them more time for volunteerism and participation in charitable causes.

The American middle class is all but nonexistent, and its continued shrinkage will certainly be the death of small business, not, as some would suggest, the prospect of having to shell out fair compensation to employees.

If wages remain stagnant while the cost of living increases, no one will be able to afford to patronize small businesses, and the working class will continue to seek cheaper alternatives, further widening the seemingly endless chasm between the upper and working class.

We support this long-overdue increase to the minimum wage. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

CLASS OF 2028

How is the weather?

W

hen we canÕ t think of anything else to jaw about, the weather is always a good topic. Ò Nice day,Ó we say when we meet a friend in the post office. They either agree or they donÕ t.

I guess I’m one of those people with a malleable mindset.

If it’s sunny and warm, Kaye

by Gordie Little and I get outside. If it’s miserable, we sit on our deck with a cup of Joe and watch the world along the Saranac River.

We’ve had more than our fair share of rain this year. The riverbank and lawns are verdant and lush. The garden veggies and flowers are finally thriving without having to unreel the water hose to give them constant squirts. Greenery between our back fence and the river grew so fast and furious that I once again risked life and limb to chop it down after it began to obstruct our view. I did it when Kaye was at her exercise class so she wouldn’t fret. She has good reason. Those river bank rocks have been treacherous and I am not without the scars to prove it.

There’s an old North Country saying: “If you don’t like the weather, just wait a minute.Ó That has certainly been true this year. 80s one day and 50s the next. I’m always up by around 5 a.m. and Kaye is not far behind. Our steaming cups of coffee are sipped as we drink in the splendor supplied by Mother Nature. Flora and fauna everywhere you look. The Great Blue Heron (we call it “Big Bird”), ducks and geese, ospreys and a plethora of smaller winged creatures that please our eyes and ears.

Of course woodchucks, raccoons, rabbits, mink, skunks and miscellaneous other critters add to the mix and often the grief. We love to hear the first birdsong of the day, offered by an overzealous robin on the lawn beneath our bedroom window. We recognize the chirps, warbles and whistles of many birds and love the cacophony their calls provide. Cardinals are favorites, along with the delicate and lovely hummingbirds. Who needs an alarm clock?

I’ve become a bit of a slave to my laptop. I combine the natural world with the digital world that comes from the ethers. Lots of people tell me they look for my little weather blurb first thing each morning. It might read: “59.4 degrees, tiny breeze at 2 mph, partly sunny skies over the river at 5:07 a.m.” The responses from hither and thither are almost instantaneous: “76 over the peaches” comes one report from Georgia. “56 in Redford” comes another. One fine person even gives me the temperature from a thermometer mounted on the spare tire of her camper.

Somebody mentioned the name of Bird Berdan the other day. He was the weatherman on a local television station long before the digital age. He used a chalk board to draw storm clouds and didnÕ t know all the proper meteorological terms, but he endeared himself by being down to earth and humble.

One cold early winter day, he said, Ò There is a slight chance of snow flurries this evening.” The phone at the studios began to ring. He answered it during a commercial break. A womanÕ s voice chided: Ò Just thought youÕ d like to know that I have 6 inches of those snow flurries on my back stoop.” Bird loved that story and so did I. At our “Little” house on the river, we’re less controlled by the whims of the weather man (or woman) than farmers and construction friends. That’s where the phrase “make hay when the sun shinesÓ originated. On bad days, Kaye and I make lemonade out of lemons and sing songs together when the rain falls on our tin roof. Who cares that we might be a tad off key?

My late mother loved thunderstorms and we often walked together laughing as the rain pelted our slickers and sloshed on our galoshes. She used to say, Ò Whether the weather be cold or whether the weather be hot; whether the weather be cloudy or whether the weather be not; weÕ ll weather the weather, whatever the weather, whether we like it or not.Ó

ome to a gardening workshop at Tannery Pond Community Center on Saturday, the 18th of July, to learn native or innocuous alternatives to non-native and invasive plants. It’s from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. I suspect you will also learn how to distinguish some of the nasties like Giant Hogweed from the friendlier non-natives like Queen Anne’s Lace.

Hogweed is in the same Pars;eu family but is a Big Black Sheep!

We are in an unusual and lucky position here in the Adirondacks in having a wide array of flowers, shrubs, trees, mosses, liverworts and lichens that not only are native but grow themselves! Flower gardening is hard work and you need to know a tremendous amount to be able to have a spectacular garden, but if you look around you as you walk on dirt roads and trails or canoe slowly along the edges of the innumerable wild ponds and lakes, you can start to appreciate all those native things that take no work at all and often are just as beautiful in their more modest natural settings. A botanist/photographer friend near Poughkeepsie is envious of us in the Adirondacks because her “natural areas” down there are full of invasives.

Beautiful wild orchids are blooming in bogs right now, other habitats have orchids throughout the summer, the ice meadows are a blooming array of odd combinations. Drive up Whiteface with a naturalist to see some alpine rarities up there. Once you get to know the common natives, finding a new one is just as ex-

I recently had two full days on an 1871 schooner which sails from Camden, Maine. I had a great time “learning the ropes” but also fun was finding a tiny plant two inches high, packed with a half dozen pink flowers interspersed with thick leaves. It looked just like alpine and tundra plants which have to survive harsh conditions and was hidden in thick green grass just above the high tide level. ItÕ s not in my books but I am working on it and when I find it, I will be very happy.

Back to invasives—if you had Japanese knotweed (Mexican bamboo) treated by the Inlet group last year and there is some resprouting, or if you have some knotweed that is driving you crazy, contact me as the season can start as soon as August. The plants start storing the sugars they make in the summer in the roots by then, and when injected with a certain herbicide, it gets taken down to the tips of the roots and kills them. Other plants nearby usually are not affected and this is the only efficient way to get rid of knotweed once and for all. It seemed like a good idea to plant it decades ago, but now we are stuck with great masses of it lining streams which makes them inaccessible and destroys the native ecosystem of the water. This is true of many other alien garden plants and shrubs. Another one starting to be a big problem around here is Japanese barberry. It will be banned for sale by nurseries starting next March but unfortunately it is still available this year. Please, start digging it out now as the berry seeds get carried by birds and rodents and planted in your neighbor’s yard! Dozens of other plants are on the black list starting this year. We will no doubt learn about them on Saturday, at TPCC, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Now, in coming together, this new organization will better attract grant funding, allowing for even more opportunities from larger agencies, Speach said.

Donna Trautwein Welch, who was elected president of the new organization, oversaw the merger, of which she said “the process was important to the product.Ó Under Trautwein Welch’s supervision, the boards of both groups met separately to weigh the pros and cons of merging.

“Each group felt secure in their meeting, and were very candid, which was wonderful,” she said.

At the end of their deliberations, both boards unanimously agreed that a merger was in the best interest of their respective organizations.

The deliberations were not

without their challenges, however — chief among them, the name of this new organization.

Speach said the new board agreed on Tannery Pond Center as the name, because they wanted to retain an emphasis on the venue that has provided educational, cultural, recreational and social opportunities for area residents for years.

“The common goal is the use of this building,” she said. “The facility itself is the center point.”

Through the merger, the groups worked together on “expanding and enhancing, while streamlining” both of the operations to form a single, unified entity, Speach said.

The two boards have now become one, electing all new officers, but retaining the current terms of each position.

This new Tannery Pond Center board, consisting of 17 members living in Johnsburg and a number of surrounding communities, Speach said, offers more representation in the community, which will be an asset to the future of the organization.

Looking hopefully toward the future, the Tannery Pond Center board plans to work together to create a more diverse offering in order to attract new demographics to the center.

Gene “Geno” Maiorana

Coach Geno Retires Again

NORTH CREEK Ñ Johnsburg BoysÕ Varsity Basketball Coach Gene Maiorana (“Geno” to his players) is retiring for the third time in his life. Maiorana has served as head coach for most of the past 16 years at Johnsburg Central School. Now at age 75, he has decided to step down and pass the responsibility to the next generation of coaches.

In 1995 Maiorana retired from a 34 year teaching career mostly in Southold, Long Island. Three years later he again retired, this time from a 20 year career as Varsity Basketball coach in Southold. At that time sports writer Bob Liepa of the Suffolk Times wrote: Ò Maiorana has taught his players more than just basketball (although he has done a pretty good job of that, leading Southold to the playoffs 10 times, winning at least two league championships and making at least seven trips to the Suffolk County Class D final). The two-time Coach of the Year has taught them something that’s no longer taken for granted: How to act like a sportsman, win or lose.Ó The rocking chair is not ready to claim Maiorana just yet. Love of the sport and a strong rapport with student athletes will keep Coach Geno at JCS next season as a volunteer. He will serve as unpaid assistant to the new head coach, faculty member Andrew Snide.

Ryan Morris stretches for first during a game of tennis baseball while at the Youth Program last summer. The Johnsburg Summer Youth Program held at the Ski Bowl Park began July 7. The program runs from 9 a.m. to noon, Tuesdays through Fridays until Aug. 14.

Common Ground forum to focus on building vibrant communities LONG LAKE — Community leaders, innovative entrepreneurs and Adirondack citizens will gather here on Wednesday, July 15 to discuss constructive ways to enhance the quality of life in communities across the region.

The Common Ground Alliance (CGA) Forum assembles engaged residents from across the Adirondack Park and the North Country for one day each year to talk about strategies and actions that aim to create a viable future for the region. In recent years, the forum has produced real results, including the Adirondack Futures scenario work led by Jim Herman and Dave Mason, as well as last year’s updated Blueprint for the Blue Line, a set of legislative priorities for the Adirondack Park for 2015 and beyond.

This year’s theme is “Building Vibrant Communities.” The forum will kick off with remarks by New York State Lt. Gov. Kathy

Hochul, followed by a panel of young Adirondack professionals who will discuss the opportunities and challenges of living and working in the Park.

The bulk of the agenda is dedicated to work-group sessions that feature a variety of topics: recipes for attractive and livable hamlets; creating a regional trail-town initiative; using the Park’s assets to attract investment; working families within the Blue Line; schools as centers of community; cultivating communities through local food; the Adirondack response to climate change; funding community drinking water and wastewater infrastructure; and terrestrial invasive species The forum will conclude with comments by state lawmakers.

The 2015 CGA Forum will take place at the Sabattis Pavilion in Long Lake. Registration is $30, and $20 for students; cost includes coffee and lunch.

To register, visit Adirondack North Country AssociationÕ s website at adirondack.org. For more information about registration, please contact Jake Vennie-Volrath at 891-6200 or jvennievollrath@adirondack.org.

CGA to host public forum

LONG LAKE — Community leaders, innovative entrepreneurs and Adirondack citizens will gather Wednesday, July 15, at the Sabattis Pavilion, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. They will be discussing constructive ways to enhance the quality of life in communities across the region. The Common Ground Alliance (CGA) Forum assembles engaged residents from across the Adirondack Park and the North Country for one day each year to talk about strategies and actions that aim to create a viable future for the region. In recent years, the forum has produced real results, including the Adirondack Futures scenario work led by Jim Herman and Dave Mason, as well as last year’s updated Blueprint for the Blue Line, a set of legislative priorities for the Adirondack Park for 2015 and beyond.

This year’s theme is “Building Vibrant Communities.” The forum will kick off with remarks by New York State Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul, followed by a panel of young Adirondack professionals who will discuss the opportunities and challenges of living and working in the Park. The bulk of the agenda is dedicated to work-group sessions that feature a variety of topics such as recipes for attractive and livable hamlets; creating a regional trail-town initiative; using the Park’s assets to attract investment; working families within the Blue Line; schools as centers of community; cultivating communities through local food; the Adirondack response to climate change; funding community drinking water and wastewater infrastructure and terrestrial invasive species. The forum will conclude with comments by state lawmakers.

Registration is $30, and $20 for students; cost includes coffee and lunch. To register, visit Adirondack North Country AssociationÕ s web site at adirondack.org. For more information about registration, contact Jake Vennie-Volrath at 891-6200 or jvennie-vollrath@ adirondack.org.

Get out ... and stay out!

News Enterprise • July 11, 2015 | 13

or people who havenÕ t been paying attention, itÕ s time to get outside.

The summer season is already three weeks gone , and you need to take stock. Have you been out for a hike yet? No? How about fishing, paddling, biking, swimming or simply sitting by a lake and enjoying a sunset.

Have you enjoyed a sunset, a starry night or the evening stars. In the Adirondacks, summer is the most fleeting of all seasons. It flies by in a condensed fashion, wedged in somewhere between High School graduation and Labor Day, which arrives on Monday, September 7th. The summer season is tucked into a time-span of roughly, 58 days, but who’s counting? At this time of year, the calendar simply doesn’t much matter.

As a youngster, my internal calendar was calibrated according to the school calendar until I graduated college. As an adult, it eventually returned to a scholastic calendar as it revolved around our childrenÕ s activities. It remained on a scholastic calendar status, until their college years were completed.

Fortunately, I managed to maintain an internal, natural calendar throughout the entire ordeal, adjusting with the seasons according to the availability of outdoor pursuits such as skiing, snowshoeing, ice fishing, trout fishing, hiking, skiing, hunting (grouse, deer, turkey, goose, rabbits, etc.) whitewater and flat water paddling seasons, biking, and of course, the camping season which is available all year round. Despite the brevity of Adirondack summers, I’ve always had enough activities to keep me occupied and out of trouble, for the most part. Apparently, it is no longer the case in many places, both rural and urban Recently, after reading research studies featured on the Child & Nature Network, I was disturbed to discover just how far modern society has retreated from the woods and waters. The findings are surprising and revealing. I’ve listed a few below.

On the downside: In the span of a generation, children’s use of space has changed from being primarily outdoors to indoors. It has also become increasingly adult supervised.

Children today are taller, heavier, larger, and weaker than in

1981.

Young children are growing up in a media-saturated environment, and they spend less time playing outdoors than their parents did when they were young. Traditional outdoor activities have largely been replaced by electronic entertainment.

Conversely, nearby nature boosts children’s attentional functioning and access to parks and recreation programs can decrease the risk of being overweight or obese at age 18. Nearby nature reduces stress in children, and living within half a mile of a park may lower a child’s risk of being overweight or obese by more than half.

Outdoor learning improves long-term memory of course content and increases positive student attitudes. Natural schoolyards decrease stress, strengthen attention, reduce behavior problems, and enhance factors associated with resilience in children of all ages.

Youth report feelings of calm and peace associated with spending time in healthy outdoor environments. Older children who spend more time outside tend to be more physically active and are less likely to be overweight ChildrenÕ s time playing in nature and vegetation surrounding their home has a positive effect on their behavior and reduces attributes of ADHD. Nature immersion enhances creative thinking and problem solving in adults. Outdoor play nurtures creative thinking in nursery school.

Children’s connection to nature influences their interest in participating in nature-based activities and performing environmentally friendly behaviors. Direct childhood experiences and mentoring are key elements in adults’ actions to benefit the environment.

Adolescents experience positive emotional change after spending time in an outdoor educational setting. Access to parks and recreation programs decrease risk of being overweight or obese at age 18. Living within half a mile of a park may lower a child’s risk of being overweight or obese by more than half.

Outdoor learning improves long-term memory of course content and increases positive student attitudes, and youth report feelings of calm and peace associated with spending time in healthy outdoor environments. The research didnÕ t actually reveal anything new, as a pair of old school, outdoor travelers first revealed such truths more than a half century ago when they claimed, “I never met a human being whose humor was not the better for a walk.” –The Joy of Walking, April 1942 and, “Town makes men contentious; the country smooths out their souls.” – The Gentle Art of Tramping, 1926

Kids are designed to be outdoors, where natural entertainment is always available. Skinned knees and grass stains are simply evidence of a day well played!

Comedian adds biting commentary to Long Lake festivities

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com LONG LAKE — Peter Michael Marino surveyed the group of amateur racers pooling up at the starting line.

They stretched in their uniforms, from scout outfits to tie-dyed t-shirts, limbering up before sailing two-tenths of a mile down Route 30 in race cars made from modified beds, just one of this townÕ s many quirky holiday traditions.

New rules this year require all contraptions to have a steering device or another safety mechanism.

“I’m looking forward to see if they steer better or worse,” said Marino, a New York Citybased comedian and producer. “If they steer worse, thatÕ s always more entertaining.Ó Marino has been hosting this townÕ s events for years.

HeÕ s a seasoned theater vet, having written and conceived a number of London and OffBroadway productions, including a solo showcase at the Peoples Improv Theater in Manhattan.

Prior to the race, a competitor from New Jersey expressed optimism at the prospects of his team, the Rice Roaders.

“We smoked ‘em last year,” said the rider. Ò EveryoneÕ s copying our wheels.Ó No bumping into one another, warned Stephanie Hample, one of the event’s coordinators.

The crowds streamed in.

Hundreds lined the route, their clothes flapping as wind came up from the water.

Walkie talkies squawked as the teams got into position. Ò On your carts, get set, go!Ó hollered Marino.

And then they were off.

The competitors this year appeared to be barely holding it together as they careened wildly down this pristine stretch of waterfront highway shortly before coming to a full stop at the town beach, which was flecked with spectators in all shades red, white and blue.

A pair of law enforcement officials blocked off traffic on either end of Route 30 as the beds

bombed through.

Then traffic was allowed to pass.

They were like slow-moving antelopes; Marino, the jaguar with acid-tipped comedic fangs.

Cars crept through filled with aloof drivers, many sealed within air-conditioned bubbles, sitting stone-faced and tightlipped with the windows rolled up.

Then Marino would pounce.

To one partypooper: Ò Slow down! YouÕ ve got my mic in your car,Ó yelled the comic as the microphone crackled and the driver hit the gas.

The joke was on the motorists as the crowd roared with Martino. Ò Where you going?Ó he said to another.

“Star Lake,” said a woman.

“Never heard of it,” said Marino, who waved her on with faux dismissiveness.

He was part traffic cop, part sly interrogator, with the hopes, he later said, that these passerby will later stop in Long Lake and spend some time here after realizing what a blast it is.

Traffic stopped and another pair of teams sped through a heat.

Marino pulled a man who identified himself as Eric out of the crowd.

Eric issued single-word answers to his questions. Ò YouÕ re not going to go hunt down a bear tonight?” eventually asked Marino after another monosyllabic answer from Eric. Ò I could,Ó said Eric.

“You’re really boring, get out of here,” said Marino.

Racers sped by again, with Team Sabattis pulling off a narrow victory over their counterparts, a group of dudes who deemed themselves “D. Sweat.”

Yes, that David Sweat, the escaped convict. Ò Who else has something to say?Ó asked Marino, scanning the crowd. Ò This is called crowdwork.Ó “Where you from?” he asked a girl. Ò Japan,Ó she said.

“Godzilla, sushi… that type of stuff?”

The girl said something as the microphone

crackled and the wind carried her words, which were indistinguishable, out over the lake. Ò I donÕ t know what that means, but I think that’s offensive,” he said.

Cars with canoes continued to stream northwest on Route 30, towards Tupper Lake, many with New Jersey tags.

“It looks like a lot of people are leaving town,Ó said Marino. Ò I think itÕ s me.Ó The crowd groaned.

“Do you guys have any food in your car?” he asked a couple.

A canine panted in the back.

“A dog?! So selfish.”

The crowd groaned again... but in a good ahyou-got-us-type of way.

Up the road, racers prepped their cars and traffic crawled past.

“Poor cars, they think we’re lining up for them. Cheer them on… make them feel important, make them feel special.”

The crowd cheered.

Marino approached a small child: “How many times do you put the ‘Adirondacks’ into spell check?” he riffed. Ò None times,Ó said the girl, who was eight. Ò None times,Ó echoed Marino. Ò WhatÕ s none times nothing?Ó The kid shrugged. Ò Poor kid with no teeth,Ó said Marino.

Another pair of racers wobbled down the stretch, coming perilously close to the guardrail.

Team Sabattis, the team clad in scouting gear, lost by a hair and Marino sighed. Ò Scouts? What happened? You didnÕ t just let down yourself — you let down all of America.”

He ushered the crowd towards the beach and hollered for an aide, who sprinted across the

street in front of a slow-moving vehicle: Ò Someone get their camera Ñ this is going to be tragic,Ó he cracked.

Team D. Sweat took third and once again gave a risque victory dance that left many a face ablush. Ò Great job, guys. See you at the bar, right where you were before the race.”

Sabattis Adventure Camp landed second.

And breaking a long-time losing streak, Tropic Thunder took both first place and best in show for their Hawaiian-themed cartoon festooned with garlands and tropical patterns.

“How does it feel to win two awards at one time? WhatÕ s your secret?Ó PBR, they said.

“It’s all downhill from here,” he said.

Then the crowd dispersed, towards the Adirondack Hotel and the beach below.

ABOVE: Peter Michael Marino, the long-term MC for Long Lake’s holiday events, is equal parts interloper and commentator on the town’s transitional population, his acid-tipped jabs often as entertaining as the events themselves. He’s pictured here hosting the annual bed race on Saturday, July 4.

Law enforcers, county agree on work contract

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Warren County law enforcement personnel and county leaders have ended a long-standing stalemate in negotiating their pay and benefits.

June 19, Warren County supervisors approved a four-year contract between the county and the Police Benevolent Association, the union that represents the county Sheriff’s Department officers, both patrol personnel and investigators.

Last week, the union membership approved the contract. Retroactive to 2014, the contract awards the 62 officers a 2.5 percent raise per year for the first three years and 3 percent in the fourth year — but it also increases the officers’ health insurance contributions from 11 percent to 13 percent of the coverage’s cost.

The agreement, which broke a stalemate, allows the union and county to avoid arbitration.

In other business, the county Board of Supervisors: • adopted a new policy placing restrictions on public comments during Board of Supervisors meetings. The policy limits citizensÕ input during public comment period, generally three minutes per person, but empowers the board’s chairman to allow additional comment as he or she deems appropriate. It prohibits “vulgar comments” and “boisterous or disruptive behavior.” The measure was first undertaken months ago after some personal attacks and accusations were aired at a county meeting.

Queensbury Supervisors Doug Beaty and Mark Westcott, as well as Glens Falls Ward 2 Supervisor Peter McDevitt voted against the measure.

• empowered the town of Horicon to conduct a boat patrol on Schoon Lake for the remainder of 2015; • awarded a $68,000 contract to Clark Patterson Lee Inc. to provide engineering consultation for projects to paint two bridges: the Horicon Ave. Bridge over the Schroon River in the town of Chester, and the span in Thurman that carries Glen-Athol Road over the Patterson Creek.

• appointed Leisa Grant as Interim county Tourism Project Director; • endorsed a resolution urging the state legislature and Gov. Cuomo to extend the registration weight limit of all-terrain vehicles up to $1,500 pounds; •ratified a long list of changes to the county’s occupancy tax regulations and policies; •watched a presentation of the new Festival Commons website that is intended to market the venue to promoters and organizations who would book it for events, fairs and concerts. The slide show was presented by Greg Normandin of Glens Falls-based Normandin Marketing, who developed the website. Since it is interactive, people will be able to buy tickets to events at the new venue, formerly known as the Charles Wood Park festival space, directly off the website. Normandin said that all of the website’s features, including an interactive map and links to social media, are expected to be active soon. The supervisors voted to approve the website and have Normandin manage it. The website can be viewed at festivalcommons.com.
