Warren Co. event expands talent show

New information/welcome center to open in North Creek

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — A Warren County Planning Department program called The First Wilderness recently coordinated with the Town of Lake Luzerne to open a resource and welcome center in North Creek.

The center is set to open on Friday, Aug. 7, and will remain open until Labor Day, continuing to Columbus Day on the weekends, on the first floor of Smith’s Restaurant in North Creek.

Designed to keep visitors informed of the of-

ferings of surrounding communities, the center’s hours are meant to coincide with the SaratogaNorth Creek Railway scenic train’s summer layover schedule, from 12:30 to 3 p.m. Friday through Tuesday.

A “first wilderness guide” will be available every day, and the center will feature exhibits, displays, local town promotional handouts and complimentary maps of the accent destinations along the Hudson River.

Also included in the center is a small theater room offering short loops of neighboring countrysides, Adirondack history, Gore Mountain and Barton Garnet Mines.

MasterÊ PlanÊ TrailÊ systemÊ toÊ beÊ enactedÊ

According to First Wilderness Events Coordinator Pam Morin, the center is meant to attract the attention of visiting guests to the area who would otherwise miss out on the offerings of the surrounding region.

At the center, residents, summer guests, students and the traveling public will have a chance to understand the program of the waterfront communities of Corinth, Hadley, Lake Luzerne, Stony Creek, Thurman, Warrensburg, Chester and Johnsburg.

“Each community along the corridor is unique and offers a special heritage story that adds to their sustainable growth,” Morin said. “Being able to accept Joanne Smith’s offer to utilize the building al-

lows us the opportunity to wrap these entities in a small space for a larger education and understanding of this program that has been in existence since 1995.”

Through the NYS Department of State’s Local Waterfront Revitalization Program we now have for the first time public space to display the upcoming management plans for each,” she continued. “For those visiting that like the past and look to the future, this storefront will be an educational learning experience, a rest stop and an out-of-the-rain shelter.”

Extensive outdoor recreation maps can be found on the program website, firstwilderness.com.

DEC announces plans for 40-mile connector

NEWCOMB — It’s the moment southern Adirondack politicians and recreationalists have been waiting for.

After hearing years of community input, a plan to establish a 40mile community connector multiple-use trail system between the communities of Minerva, Newcomb and North Hudson has been approved, state Department of Environmental Conservation Acting Commissioner Marc Gerstman announced.

“Governor Cuomo committed the state to expanding and promoting diverse outdoor recreational experiences in the Adirondacks and a sustainable economy for Adirondack communities,” said Acting Commissioner Gerstman. “DEC is gratified to work together with the communities that host the Finch acquisition and to see our commitments fulfilled. We pledge to continue our partnership with the environmental community and the towns. The new trail will establish new areas to mountain bike, horseback ride, hike, snowmobile, cross-country ski and snowshoe while linking to amenities found in the communities.”

The finalization of the plan will allow for construction to begin immediately on 18-miles of new trail between Newcomb and Minerva.

The entire trail is expected to be completed by 2018, with portions of the trail being open to the public next year. Work will also begin next year on the trail connecting Newcomb and North Hudson, starting with the construction of a bridge over the outlet of Palmer Pond near the hamlet of North Hudson. The whole trail system is expected to be completed by 2022, with new trail segments becoming available for public recreation every year until the completed date. >> Story Continued | pg. 3

Youth bring 50s to Tannery Pond

NORTH CREEK — They wore bobby socks, poodle skirts, and saddle shoes, sported ducktails, big hair, smooth moves and lots of singing and dancing. The 50’s showed up in style at the Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek the afternoon of Aug. 1 in a big way, with a crowd of young performers.

The show “At the Bandstand: A Rock �n’ Roll Review” played to a standing room only audience at the TPCC. It was the culmination

of a week-long summer Youth Musical Theatre workshop, part of the Our Town Theatre Group (OTTG) schedule of events for 2015.

Thirty-four kids from North Creek and surrounding communities were involved in something swell: singing and dancing in the Adirondacks.

Under the watchful guidance of OTTG guest director Mellissa Mulvey and assistant director Robin Jay, kids ages 6 to 12 spent each day of the week from July 27 to July 31 preparing for and then performing favorites such as Johnny Angel, Splish Splash, Rockin’ Robin, and Great Balls of Fire.

Give the gift of Fresh Air

SCHROON LAKE — About eight years ago the Smith family of Johnsburg began a tradition of opening up its home to a disadvantaged New York City child.

Fast forward to 2015, the boy -- now a teenager -- is thought of as part of the family.

Kim Smith and her family got linked up with the youngster, Nicolas, through a program called The Fresh Air Fund.

“I just thought it was a great idea to get a child out of the city,” said Smith, who lives in the North Creek area. “I believe this program can really change a child’s life.”

She’s not alone. Since the 1870s, the organization has helped give children from New York City a chance to get out and experience life away from the hustle and bustle of the jammed subways and crowded streets of the five boroughs. The Smiths and other Adirondack families represent the lifeblood of the 138-year-old program that has created bonds and memories between generations of city dwellers and rural residents.

On average, around 4,000 children annually visit host families in rural, suburban and small town communities across 13 states and Canada.

Officials say since its inception the program has aided more than 1.8 million children. In 2015, an estimated 24 families throughout the Adirondacks had opened their doors and arms to Fresh Air children.

Fatima Shama, executive director of the nonprofit, said the simplicity of the program is a big part of why it’s lasted for so long.

“They get to swim and see the beauty of what a star-filled sky can look like,” Shama said.

Various social service agencies connect the children with the program. Fresh Air children include boys and girls from age 6 to 18. The first time they visit children are between 6 and 12. They stay with their families for up to two weeks on the initial visit. After those first trips, many are invited back by their host families, sometimes for longer periods of time. It’s common for host families to say their experience with the program has been as enriching for them as it is for the inner-city youths.

Shama, who recently took over leadership of the group, said she was drawn to it by the possibility of helping further develop intervention opportunities to transform lives. Besides lining up host family sites, the group also operates summer camps for about 3,000 New York City youths on a 2,300-acre site in Fishkill. It also has year-round programs including a career awareness program.

who will be entering fourth grade, hosted a Brooklyn girl named Michelle. The youngster, who is going into third grade, has gone swimming in lakes, rivers and sand pools. She sleeps with the family dog and has a blossoming friendship with Lydia. Differences in language and skin color are insignificant to them.

“Michelle’s taught us a few Spanish words, and you taught Lydia some dance moves,” Donna explained while she supervised the duo during a recent swimming trip.

After a prior summer with the Moses family, Michelle was invited back in 2015. She enjoys seeing local animals, eating ice cream and swimming with Lydia.

Beyond clearing a thorough background check, families say that hosting requires a desire to learn.

They say those interested ought to be able to provide the child with a comfortable place to sleep, but there are no financial requirements. Host families can also request the age and gender of the child. Local businesses and organizations have pitched in through contributions to make community outings easier on the pocketbook.

An important aspect of being a host is having an interest n engaging with children who have been shaped by growing up in New York City.

Kevin said he’s benefited by being exposed to big city culture, thanks in part to training trips down to New York.

The program has also helped the Smiths become educated about Nicolas’ life in the city.

Both families acknowledge that parting at the end of a visit with their Fresh Air children brings some heavyhearted feelings. “It is hard to say goodbye,” Smith said.

But Smith said they see that as an opportunity to learn about keeping in touch through email and other forms of communication.

Michelle, a Brooklyn girl involved with The Fresh Air Fund, spends time with fellow youngster, Lydia, of North Hudson, at the Schroon Lake beach in late July. Michelle was one of an estimated 25 youngsters, who were able to experience life in the Adirondacks this summer thanks to the nonprofit organization.

County Youth Fair returns this Saturday with bigger talent show

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — The Warren County Youth Fair returns this summer with an expanded lineup of acts performing in its talent contest, a traditional 4-H horse show and other activities including games for children and a pie-eating contest.

The Youth Fair is to be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 8, at the Warren County Fairgrounds on Schroon River Road in Warrensburg.

The event is hosted and conducted by Cornell Cooperative Extension and the agency’s 4-H program. There is no charge for either admission or parking.

A primary objective of the fair is to highlight the projects and exhibits of the county’s 4-H participants, Cooperative Extension 4-H Coordinator John Bowe said this week. Nearly 200 projects will be displayed or demonstrated over the four-hour duration of the fair, he said.

The youth fair’s annual talent show, set to begin at 11 a.m., features more acts than in the last several years, Bowe said.

Perhaps prompted by such television shows as “The Voice” and “Dancing with the Stars,” most of the acts involve singing or dancing, Bowe said. The talent participating has been recruited through schools across the region, he added.

The annual 4-H Horse Show, exhibiting Western and English traditions, will be conducted from 9:15 until complete in the fairground’s arena.

The fair’s pie-eating contest, set for 10:45 a.m., is open to the public.

A square-dancing demonstration is to be conducted at 10 a.m. by Tom and Deb Story.

A magic show sponsored by the Warrensburg and Lake George libraries is to be be held at noon in the fair’s reading room. At 12:45 the 4-H program will acknowledge the youth selected to represent Warren County at the “Produced in New York” competition to be held at the New York State Fair later this summer.

All day events include a laser-shot amusement, dime-toss and guessing games, a reading room, craft activities, and an exhibit detailing Warren County 4-H’s Adirondack Guide program. A booth with light snacks is to be operated by 4-Hers.

One of the main objectives of the fair is to help develop responsibility and leadership skills among youth, Bowe said. 4-H Teen Supervisors are to be on duty at the fair performing various tasks, he said.

“For most of our Teen Supervisors, this is their first job ever,” he said.

The downsized Warren County Youth Fair of recent years continues a 141-year-old tradition of the Warren County Fair, and 4-Hers are striving to keep the tradition going for future generations, event

Trail plan << Continued from | p. 1

The trail system connects the Forest Preserve units of the Vanderwacker Mountain Wild Forest, the Camp Santanoni Historic Area and the Lake Harris Public Campground as well as the Hudson River Hyslop and Blue Ridge Road Conservation Easements. It will follow existing roads and trails on public, private and conservation easement lands to minimize the amount of new trail building. The design of the trail system includes efforts to minimize impacts to residents along its route and to the natural and cultural resources of the area. This will include looping around the Gate Lodge Complex of the Camp Santanoni Historic Area. If connections are needed across private property, permission will be sought from the owner.

The plan also calls for the construction of a bridge over the Palmer Pond outlet that will provide administrative access to maintain the dam and a crossing for the Newcomb to North Hudson community connector trail. Additionally, the plan calls for the addition of new primitive tent sites for camping and a new lean-to near Great Camp Santanoni to protect the historic structures from potential damage caused by inappropriate use of the Great Camp complex.

The plan can be found on DEC’s website at dec.ny.gov/ lands/22587.html.

State Senator Betty Little said, “The community connector trail will afford so many more people access to enjoy and appreciate this wonderful part of the Adirondack Park.

This means so much to these communities, and particularly the small businesses that will benefit from an outdoor ex-

perience that appeals to more tourists of all ages and physical ability. I thank Governor Cuomo, DEC Acting Commissioner Marc Gerstman and the staff for working with the local officials and other stakeholders to establish this long-desired trail system.”

Assemblyman Dan Stec said, “I applaud DEC for listening to the needs of the people and deciding to make this multi-use trail a reality for the five towns.

The purpose of this land acquisition was touted to include recreation and economic development needs. It’s good to see DEC following through on this commitment.”

Chair of the Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Bill Farber said, “This community connector trail is another great example of the success we can achieve when the region’s five towns and two counties work in partnership with state agencies and local stakeholders. Snowmobiling is important to our region, and opening this trail will be a direct benefit to our winter economy. Thanks to Governor Cuomo and DEC, we have achieved a balance in protecting the Adirondack Park and opening it to greater recreation and tourism opportunities.”

Town of Minerva Supervisor Steve McNally said, “With the Governor’s and DEC’s help, we are really excited with the new opportunities ahead of us.

With limited accommodations and services in our small towns, having the ability for people to get from one town to another will make us a better destination.”

Town of Newcomb Supervisor George Canon said, “This is a major step toward greater economic benefits for the communities in the five-town hub, especially during the winter months. Thank you to Governor Cuomo and DEC for their

organizers said.

Cooperative Extension’s 4-H program is open to youth from 5 to 19 years old, providing opportunities to learn through clubs, after school and school enrichment programs. ongoing commitment to Adirondack communities, residents and visitors.”

Town of North Hudson Supervisor Ron Moore said, “The Town of North Hudson is very pleased to have this new recreational opportunity that will provide a Community Connector Trail between the five towns.

We believe this will help to spur the new growth in our economies that we so desperately need, while at the same time preserving and protecting the environmental resources that are our great treasure. Many thanks to the DEC for their continued commitment and hard work in bringing these new recreational opportunities to all of our people and the economic benefits that will support our struggling businesses as a result.”

Adirondack Council Executive Director William C. Janeway said, “The Adirondack Council supports the goals of the state’s community connector snowmobile trail network, which aims to make snowmobiling between the park’s communities safer, easier and more ecologically friendly. Moving trails off of lakes and ponds, out of the middle of Forest Preserve units and toward existing travel corridors is good for protecting clean water, wilderness, wildlife and the winter economy of local communities.”

America the Beautiful!

wonder at times if Americans have gotten too caught up in the current day to day hustle and bustle of life to really think about what a great country we are privileged to call home?

There have been many societies down through the ages that took for granted all the benefits they had built over the years and reached a point where enough was never enough. There comes a point where we each have to take stock in what we have and what we expect from our personal efforts; Also from those we share this country with and from the government, charged with maintaining and building a foundation for the nation.

Optimism seems to have taken a back seat these days to complaining. The first debate of the 2016 presidential election took place earlier this week as the Republicans get the process started with the top 10 ranked candidates.

Since this column is written before that event I can only assume this election will pick up where the last one left off.

Candidates tearing their opponents down and lots of discussion about all the things that are wrong with our country.

I strongly doubt there will be much talk about what’s right with America and what a great nation where we are blessed to be called citizens. That’s what I see at the root of our national discontentment. We spend far too much time talking about our shortcomings and not nearly enough time celebrating our freedoms and our fellow citizens who go about their business each day, raising families, building lives and making their version of the American Dream come true.

Opportunity is all around us if we just open our eyes and take time to smell the roses. The nation is full of beautiful landscapes, magnificent cities, wonderful hospitals, creative, talented and generous people who give so much of themselves. It’s uplifting just to be in their company.

Last week a story that had to catch your attention was 8-yearold Zion who lost his limbs to a serious infection at a younger age. Zion was blessed with prosthetic legs and was hoping for prosthetic hands that might allow him even greater mobility.

The prosthetic legs have allowed Zion to be very active, including walking, running and jumping; he had learned to use his forearms to write, eat and play video games, and has been attending school.

This young man became the first candidate to receive a double-hand transplant earlier this month at The Children’s Hospiltal of Philadelphia in an eleven hour surgical operation performed by a 40-person medical team.

The surgery itself is enough to celebrate, but the attitude of young Zion in a recent press conference was an inspirational marvel. It’s one we should all take a lesson from when we think about all we have in our lives and all we owe to those who gave birth to this great nation.

Call to lawmakers to support MEA

St. Mary’s Gala a great success

To the Editor: I am writing to urge the elected officials in the Northern New York area to support the Museum Education Act (MEA) introduced by Senator Betty Little (Senate Bill 5001) and Assemblymember Mathew Titone (Assembly Bill 8199).

New York State has more museums, historical societies, zoos, botanical gardens and aquariums than any other state, many of which are among the leading art, history, science, and natural history institutions in the world. As many as 60 million visitors, including over six million school children, visit New York’s museums and institutions each year, the economic impact of which is well into the billions of dollars statewide.

However, many of these major tourist and educational destinations are struggling financially to keep their doors open and provide the services students and adult learners need. Since 2008, school districts statewide have been forced to cut their budgets and many have unfortunately cut transportation budgets once used to transport students to their local and regional museums and institutions. This unfortunate reality has effectively cut-off many of New York’s students from learning field trips and, in turn, harmed the museums and institutions they once visited. The MEA will help end this practice and get our students and adult learners back to the museums and institutions eager to serve them, all at no cost to local school districts. And in doing so, it will strengthen the educational competitiveness of New York’s students and adult learners.

Carol Rock, Secretary Babbie Rural & Farm Learning Museum

To the Editor: It is time to take a break from the hot and busy summer to relay my appreciation to those who so diligently worked to make the St. Mary’s Summer Gala such a roaring success. Without hesitation, these individuals stepped forward to put together a funfilled evening for all in attendance and to raise money for St. Mary’s School. Under the leadership of Robin Hearburg and Maria Stitt this group planned an event which included dinner with a d.j. and dancing and both live and silent auctions which entertained as well as brought in much needed cash for our local Catholic school. In addition, a $10,000 raffle was held that gave out approximately $15,000 in prize money.

Sue Liddel, Jean Hakim, Karlene Gonyeau, Marianne Major, Margy Pote, Lori Clark, Christine Leerkes, Linda Leavens, Kristina Wells, and Cathy Spaulding all worked throughout the spring and into the summer to bring this event to fruition. Kudos to Scott Hearburg for once again being the auctioneer extraordinaire. Thank you to Father Kevin for his over-arching support and trust.

In closing, the timing of this year’s help was all the more meaningful given the consuming reconstruction of our beloved school, soon to be re-opened for the 2015-2016 school year. God’s blessings abound.

In late 2012, Essex county clerk Joseph Provoncha was publicly fined and reprimanded for improperly influencing the award of a county contract. Provoncha was punished because he allowed an eventual contract recipient to determine the criteria through which that contract was awarded. Provoncha was fined $3,500 by the County Ethics Board for his lapses in judgment and was forced to resign from two of his public positions.

“Provoncha also admitted to violating the Ethics Policy, the County policy manual and continued misuse of the County computer system after being asked by the Ethics Board to stop,” wrote Valley News reporter Katherine Clark in her coverage of Provoncha’s public reprimand.

Local school teacher Luke Hudak, 34, is seeking to give Essex County voters the option of a different county clerk this November.

Consequently, veteran partisan hack Winfield Belanger is once again laboring to keep an opposition candidate off of the ballot. Belanger, a former Matt Doheny operative, is an old hand at this.

Belanger has apparently decided that his role in our democracy is as an obstructionist, and therefore he examines the other side’s nominating petitions with a magnifying glass and a fine-tooth comb, searching for reasons to raise objections to signatures and addresses on non-Republican nominating petitions.

It’s game-playing, and it’s an insult to the people of Essex County.

There are legitimate reasons to closely examine nominating petitions. After all, no one wants the dead, the opposed, or the non-existent to propel a candidate into office, or even onto the ballot. However, these are not Belanger’s concerns.

You may be interested to learn some of the reasons that Belanger, the vice chair of the county GOP committee, so strenuously objects to the efforts of those who have signed Hudak’s petitions.

Belanger alleges that Hudak’s petitions contain grievous infractions such as abbreviations; a printed name (rather than cursive) in a signature box; an incomplete address; a name that does not exactly match the proper name on the voter’s registration; and an address that does not exactly match the address at which the voter registered.

He claims that on one petition the “town” field wasn’t filled in, that on another the voter wrote “Schroon Lake” rather than “Schroon,” that a voter neglected to include the date, and that one petition’s witness did not include their own complete address.

This is only a partial list.

It is reasonable to ask whether these are sincere, legitimate reasons to object to the efforts of Hudak’s volunteers and the preferences expressed by the voters who signed these nominating petitions — or whether Belanger’s objections are simply the ploys of a seasoned insider.

Those of Belanger’s ilk would likely respond that this is simply the way the game is played.

The people of Essex County, however, may not appreciate such games.

Another partisan activist, Shaun Gillilland, recently told the Adirondack Daily Enterprise that any alleged errors on Hudak’s nominating petitions raise questions about Hudak’s fitness for the position of county clerk.

Though disingenuous, this is a clever argument.

Voters should be aware that Hudak’s nominating petitions were collected by volunteers, not by the candidate.

Last week, the Essex County Board of Elections validated 307 of Hudak’s signatures — enough to put Hudak on the ballot this November.

Subsequently, Win Belanger filed a lawsuit to keep the voters of Essex County from having a choice this fall.

What is he afraid of?

Is there nothing more worthwhile to which he can devote energies than keeping Luke Hudak off of the ballot?

The people of Essex County would be better off if Belanger devoted his apparently copious amount of free time to activities such as volunteering for organizations like the American Red Cross or Habitat for Humanity rather than devoting his time to keeping Democratic candidates off of the ballot.

Such charitable activities, however, would doubtless fail to provide the same sort of thrill to a devoted party hack.

With time, though, even the likes of Win Belanger may find a way to enjoy public service.

‘Race the Train,’ a true success To the Editor: The 13th running of Race the Train was filled with excitement on a beautiful day.

Runners from as far away as California joined to participate in the 8.4 mile race.

Among the 250 racers were many of our very own Johnsburg Central students and teachers. It was inspiring to see racers spanning generations from age 14 to 74.

The winner of the Men’s Division was Paul Allison, now residing in Jericho, Vermont, finishing the race in 46 minutes and 19 seconds! Devin McGlade of New City, NY was the top female finisher, with a time of 58 min. 53 seconds. A short one mile family run took place after the main race with around 20 participants racing.

Our sincere gratitude is extended to Saratoga and North Creek Railway for hosting Race the Train and making a generous monetary donation to Johnsburg Dollars for Scholars. Thank you to Rhonda Morris, her family and Adirondack Runners for cohosting the race this year. Special thanks go out to all our sponsors, particularly North Country Imports, Morris Management Group, TC Murphy Lumber, Basil and Wicks, Stephenson’s Lumber, Adirondack Spirits , Braley and Noxon Hardware, Glens Falls National Bank, Creative Stage Lighting, Stewart’s Shops, Saratoga and North Creek Railway, Upstate Insurance Agency , Izzy’s Market and Deli, and Garwood Boats.

Also, thanks to Stewart’s, TOPS Market, Jacobs and Toney’s, Biscuit’s Bakery and Café Sarah for generous donations of water and food. A big thanks goes out to all the local

businesses who contributed to our raffle and offered special discounts to our runners.

Lastly, we would like to thank the many volunteers who helped in all aspects of the race. There are many tasks to oversee such as timing, food preparation, water stations, registration and safety details. Without each and every volunteer, we could not have staged this race. The proceeds from the race will assist Johnsburg Dollars for Scholars in funding scholarships for JCS graduates as they continue their education. Again, many thanks to everyone for making the race a success!

Let the voters decide To the Editor: Essex County candidates Brian Barrett and Luke Hudak, running for County Judge and County Clerk, respectively, expect to conduct vigorous campaigns this fall. Will they be able to, or will the incumbents and their operatives play an inside game to keep Barrett and Hudak off the ballot?

Judge Richard Meyer was unopposed in his first campaign for his county court seat. County Clerk Joe Provoncha has faced a challenger only three times in the past quarter-century. (In 2012, Provoncha admitted to improper behavior at the taxpayers’ expense and was fined $3,500 by the Essex County Ethics Board.) Power corrupts.

Objections to the signatures on Barrett and Hudak’s petitions have been made in a coordinated attempt to force them off of the ballot. These objections have not been made by average voters, who would, of course, prefer a choice, but rather have been brought by partisan agents who fear contested races.

The people of Essex County should decide who our next County Judge and County Clerk are, not partisan objections that seek to game the system in order to remove opposition candidates from the ballot.

Let the voters decide.

Broken bid process in Warrensburg To the Editor: Today at 4:30 there was a special board meeting held in Warrensburg. Its’ purpose was to open the bids for the roof and window replacement project.

Unfortunately for the taxpayers, only one bid was received and it was for over $100,000. Final approval was tabled until the engineer could review the bid but all the board members expressed comfort with the amount and the process. Why the town would combine to disparate projects (Roofing and Windows) into one bid beats me and why they seem so ready to accept and move forward with only one bid is not right for the taxpayers.

How can the taxpayers have any confidence they are getting the best price when only one bid is received. This is not the first time this has happened. Just recently only one bid was received for a vehicle. To my knowledge the local economy so hot that only one business has time or product for these contracts.

I’m sure they followed the minimum standards for advertising of bids but is minimum effort really in the best interest of the residents of Warrensburg?

Police relocation causes safety issues To the Editor: We, the Concerned Citizens and Neighbors of Ticonderoga, have several public health and safety concerns regarding the relocation of the police station into the Armory maintenance building. We would like to share these with the community.

• Sex offenders will be reporting to the police station. This will bring them into close contact with our children who use the Armory for after school and Silver Bay YMCA Teen center programs, dances, Biddy Basketball, and a number of other activities. St. Mary’s School and its school playground are also in the immediate neighborhood and the Ticonderoga High School is nearby at the south end of Amherst Avenue.

• Increased traffic flows will occur in an already heavily traveled neighborhood. This will not only include Amherst Avenue but Champlain Avenue and all the other streets within a close proximity to the proposed location. We have been informed that a single patrolman may make as many as 20-25 trips to the station during a 12-hour shift. In addition, there will be other visitors arriving to the station for number of other reasons.

• Well-intentioned police will be put in a no-win situation as they attempt to respond to emergency calls from a location that does not make logistical sense. They will have to contend with other vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists coming or going, including senior citizens parking and walking to the Senior Center, children at the Armory, attendees for both St. Mary’s Church and the Church of the Cross as well as special events, to name but a few. In an emergency where every second counts, you want the police to be able to respond as quickly as possible without potentially putting others in harm’s way.

• In relation to the police exiting onto Champlain Avenue the Supervisor has stated that only a dire emergency will call for the police to use Amherst Avenue. This means that the police will be using Champlain Avenue as their primary means of entrance and exit. As long-time residents we are still unsure of how the police would navigate the confluence of Champlain Avenue and The Portage at high speeds safely, especially during the winter. Visitors to our area are even more perplexed. Many visitors use The Portage to take their boats to Lake George or visit Mount Defiance. The sidewalks along Champlain Avenue are often used by both pedestrians and children on bicycles, especially when there are events at the Armory. Church of the Cross attendees park on both east and west sides of Champlain Avenue, limiting sight distances for vehicles exiting the Armory property heading north (toward downtown) on Champlain Avenue.

The potential for an accident, which is already very high, will multiply when the police start using Champlain Avenue as their primary means of entrance and exit.

We implore the Board to seriously look at the neighborhood impact of this proposed move. Public health and safety should be the overriding criteria when making this decision. Relocating the police station to the maintenance building will endanger both the health and safety of children, seniors, visitors, and residents.

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Charlie Chaplain went to sea...

Gordie Little

Columnist

T

hanks to readers who responded to last week’s column about shoes. Some people had more; but most had less foot clutter in their closets than I. do. A friend named Mary told me she still saves old shoelaces.

Kaye and I were talking about Charlie Chaplain eating shoe leather in a movie.

We sit on our deck and sip hot coffee each morning.

We exchange the kind of chit chat young lovers always do. We challenge each other with trivia and vie to see who spots the first hummingbird of the day in the morning mist.

Suddenly she started to chant, “Charlie Chaplin went to sea, silver buckles on his knee.” It struck me as hilarious. I replied, “No, no; it was Bobby Shafto.” “I like it better with Charlie Chaplain,” she said. We laughed again.

We do that a lot.

Between us, we tried to conjure up all the lyrics and verses of the ancient nursery rhyme. I copied the first printed version of “Bobby Shafto” and all the subsequent iterations I could find. To both of us, it is always amazing how kids supply their own words based on how they hear a rhyme.

Writers do much the same.

I remember learning Bible verses as a young boy. My version of the Lord’s Prayer was, “Our father who art in heaven, Harold be thy name.

I traced “Bobby Shafto” back to the first printed version in 1805 and learned that he was a real person from County Wicklow in Ireland.

He left this world in 1737.

Through the years, others have claimed the original Bobby Shafto was somebody else entirely. No matter. It’s the lyrics I’m most interested in. Earlier versions indicate that he had “silver buckles at his knee” rather than “on his knee.”

A line in the second verse reads, “Bobby Shafto’s bright and fair, Panning out his yellow hair.” A newer version says, “Bobby Shafto’s fine and fair, Combing down his auburn hair.” And, still another: “Bobby Shafto’s fat and fair…”

So it goes. Sing it any way you like; in Gaelic, if that is your pleasure. Like many other nursery rhymes, additional verses have been added over the years. How many do you know? In any case, Shafto always comes back to marry the singer and that’s exactly as it should be.

I don’t know for sure, but my guess would be that Charlie Chaplin never heard of Bobby Shafto. Or should it be spelled Shaftoe?

So, we will pare down the list and give you the Northern Highlights. For the most part, organizations that enrich our communities, without making a profit will make the cut and be on our list.

If you have something, you really need our readership to know; you might want to purchase a small announcement. See the ones on the side of the facing page, the ones next to the Calendar of Events? Those are the ones I am referencing.

They are not very expensive, and if you think whatever you have to say is important enough to purchase an ad, then it will put it in the calendar, with guaranteed placement.

Linda Dolly is the coordinator of arts and entertainment for Sun Community News.

www.suncommunitynews.com/events for the latest events

elcome to our redesigned publication. I was hired to help organize and spotlight the best events and activities in our area, via a Calendar of Events.

When I first saw the spots they wanted to fill, I was a little apprehensive.

My doubt was probably rooted in my memories of high school.

Let me explain-It was the seventies. Not clear enough?

In my teens, I used to suit up with the other athletes and take the bus to games.

It is amusing because, I didn’t enjoy sports, and was horrified when I was put into an actual game. However, for two sports a year I took the risk, because riding the bus was one of the best social activities of my high school.

With these memories firmly imprinted on my subconscious, I wasn’t sure I could unearth enough legitimate activities. I have selected the word “legitimate” because, personally, I can make an interactive game out of any situation.

Unfortunately, not everyone believes a swift game of “Empty the Dishwasher Fire Brigade” is fun. So, I was pretty sure I couldn’t get away with a bulleted list of ways to play “Fire Brigade”.

With a concerted effort we began compiling a list. It began when everyone working in our offices, funneled all their personal and professional “activities” related emails in my direction. Additionally, Susan, in our Ticonderoga office and Gayle, Maureen and I, in Elizabethtown, spent a week scouring the internet for regional venues.

We discovered there are gads of lists. Lists like islands of information…standing alone. There isn’t a lack of activities, but discovering them all in one place was certainly a challenge.

For example, yesterday, I went on-line in searching for such a list from a business I knew had interesting activities every week.

In my search, I found beautiful photographs, but that was not what I was looking to find. So, I hopped in my car to visit the owner. I told her about my column and asked why I couldn’t find anything to put next to her name.

She said, you weren’t on our official site. When she took me to her official site, sure enough there were many

entertaining things in which to participate. She printed 12 pages, and handed them to me.

Of course, you understand, I could only smile. If people didn’t know her official site, they would miss something cool.

And she certainly wasn’t the only game around.

Certainly, we needed one list. One place where everyone could go, and find out what their options were.

Now, hold onto your hats, because I think you are going to love what we have devised.

First there is a fantastic online calendar. Our strategy is to create a humungous, illustrated events list. If your business or organization who has something to promote, we want you to hop aboard.

Just log on at suncommunitynews.com/events.

Then move your curser up to the top of the page, click “Add Event” or something similar.

Type the information you would like to share in the provided spots. If you have a photograph, add it! When you hit “Publish”, you will be helping create one of the area’s best There is no charge for what is essentially an online ad.

Even better, use our calendar on your website. Share your news and the details of other happenings in the area with your clients. And, again, free as our mountain air for an individual or business....But of course there are more elaborate options if your calendar need is heavy duty.

Essex County clerk ballot review turns acrimonious

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County officials are investigating an incident at the county board of elections last week that saw an election commissioner issue a ruling on ballot objections behind closed doors with the former supervisor who appointed him.

Both are Democrats; the locked out officials, Republicans.

The main candidate in question is Luke Hudak, the Democratic pick for Essex County Clerk.

Mark Whitney’s ruling last Thursday allowed Hudak ballot access for this fall’s election. His Republican counterpart, Allison McGahay, disagrees with his findings, arguing that if the signatures were reviewed by state board of election guidelines, Hudak would have been bounced from the ballot.

Hudak’s challenger is Joe Provoncha (R), the incumbent clerk who has served six terms.

Whitney’s ruling on specific objections on ballots for three political hopefuls came two weeks behind schedule. He shut himself in his office on July 30 with Essex County Democratic Chair Bethany Kosmider, a former supervisor, and refused to communicate with McGahay, who was pleading with him to leave his office to make a ruling.

Ordinarily, the two commissioners would sit down together and review each signature.

“I’ve never had this happen before,” said McGahay, who had been waiting in the office for hours for Whitney to emerge so the pair could rule on challenged signatures.

The other candidates include North Hudson town council hopeful Brian Caza, a Republican, and John Drinkwine (D), who is running for town council in Willsboro.

Whitney’s refusal to rule was holding up the printing of ballots, which needing to be shipped out to military personnel, said McGahay.

It also deprived objectors of a lower court decision before the state-mandated deadline to file court action came and went last month.

Commissioners across the state are required to make a ruling no later than two weeks after petitions are filed.

The process of examining signatures usually happens within 48 hours after objections are filed, explained McGahay.

But Whitney went on vacation before issuing a ruling.

When Whitney got back two weeks later, McGahay said he wanted to stage courtroom-type proceedings to rule on the signatures, including the cross examination of witnesses, a procedure that is beyond the scope of the board, she said, and something that is, in fact, illegal.

“That could get us sued,” said McGahay.

McGahay was forced to call the state board of elections for advice.

She said Director of Election Operations Anna Svizzero expressed dismay at the delay and confirmed that the board could not receive evidence, hear witnesses and/or allow for their cross examination.

McGahay said Whitney then refused to join in the conference call with state officials.

visor, put his name forward for the job. At the time, he was working as a clerk in that same office.

He made headlines last November when he asked lawmakers to double his salary, a request they declined on the grounds that it was a part-time position and that the last election had gone off without a hitch.

Following last week’s incident, Whitney and Kosmider refused to respond to a lengthy list of questions, including why a private citizen was giving direction to a public official, that were emailed to them by a reporter.

After Whitney left the building with Kosmider, McGahay reviewed the signatures and noted enough discrepancies that would have booted Hudak from the ballot.

As Belanger displayed copies of the petitions to a reporter on empowered to make rules in reference to the filing and disposition Thursday, Whitney emerged from his office and chastised Belanger, of such petition, certificate, objections and specifications, said John claiming that it was forbidden for him to handle original documents.

Whitney apologized and retreated back to his office with Kosmider — but left the original the process it has established to complete its administrative review of objections. documents on the table.

Petition rulings are governed by a large body of case law.

Whitney then instructed two staffers to monitor the room.

“Every board in the state is, or should be, familiar with that case Each time, McGahay knocked on the door to ask if Whitney was ready to make a ruling, he shooed her away, telling her he wasn’t law and act accordingly,” said Conklin in an email.

While the state board is available to offer advice and guidance, as ready.

Belanger said some of the signatures should clearly be thrown out it did in this case, Conklin noted, it does not sit as an appeal body because they were signed by unregistered voters, or those registered with regard to local petition rulings.

McGahay said she was flabbergasted at Whitney’s closed door to other parties, all of which are against state election law. tactics.

Others contained missing dates and addresses.

Kosmider was evidently in charge, said Belanger, who called the fiasco “dirty politics” directed at helping candidates who would been kicked off the ballot for improper filing.

The incident reveals a gaping flaw that has cast the entire petitioning system into doubt, he said, including the next round of petitions, those from independent candidates that are due on Aug. 18.

“Anyone can sign and turn in incomplete paperwork placing themselves on the ballot,” Belanger said. “It’s unbelievable that there is no legal action available to correct an inaction like this from a public officer.”

Hudak said while he wasn’t privy to the review process, he wouldn’t be surprised in there was an error or two, even after a pair of legal advisors reviewed the petitions.

“Turning them in, we knew they would object to some of them,” he said. “We weren’t doing anything shady.”

Now that the ballot appears to be firmed up, Hudak said he wants to focus on the race. Voters will head to the polls in November.

“It’s too bad that the process has been contentious all the way along,” he said. “All I can do is run the best campaign I can run.”

Rep. Stefanik talks North Country development

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — Issues of border security, trade, transportation and infrastructure and agriculture were brought up during a roundtable discussion with Congresswoman Elise Stefanik.

The discussion took place Monday, Aug. 3 at the Holiday Inn with Stefanik, chamber board chairman Greg MacConnell, supervisor of the Town of Plattsburgh Bernie Bassett, North Country Chamber of Commerce President Garry Douglas, Mayor James Calnon, Steve LaBombard of Clinton County Board of Realtors and other prominent people of the North Country.

The breakfast discussion, sponsored by the Clinton County Board of Realtors, focused on economic development, manufacturing, Canada and U.S. partnership and international business in the North Country.

Border security Stefanik has worked alongside Douglas and the North Country Chamber of Commerce to ensure that anytime there’s a discussion about border security, that its honored by the partnership with the area’s Canadian partners and counterparts.

Stefanik said the Beyond the Border Action Plan - a longterm partnership built upon a perimeter to approach security and economic competitiveness established in 2011 - is critical to the North Country.

“It’s a way we can be a leading voice on our northern border issues,” said Stefanik.

She also mentioned that the Preclearance Act — an act authorizing the United States to preclear travelers and goods in Canada for entry into the United States — is critical to the North Country community, as well.

This fall, congress will be discussing more on border control issues, including issues Jim Phillips, president and CEO of the Canadian/American Border Trade Alliance, brought up in regards to the preclearance act, budgetary control and homegrown terrorism.

“Homegrown terrorism is probably the biggest threat to our domestic public and it’s a very difficult issue,” he said. “It’s becoming a very serious threat.”

Transportation, infrastructure On July 29, the houses passed a three-month, $8 billion highway bill that would extend federal transportation funding until the end of October.

Though the bill isn’t an ideal way to fund their infrastructure, Stefanik said, the purpose of having that bill is to get a multiyear bill by the end of this year.

David Bray, property manager of the Imperial Industrial Park, asked Stefanik how long the it would take to get a longterm transportation budget passed. She said she’s optimistic there will be one by the end of this year.

“I think that if we could get a long-term transportation bill passed sooner than later,” Bray said, “it’s going to be a huge benefit to our area.”

Currently, the area makes mass transit items such as busses, trains, ambulances and other manufactured items.

However, it lacks a exporting/ importing bay — being the only developed nation in the world not authorized to have one.

“We ought to be encouraging manufacturing,” Stefanik said.

“We ought to be encouraging exports of things that are made in the United States.”

Stefanik also focused on reauthorization of the Ex-Im (Export-Import) Bank, something that helps American companies sell products in overseas markets by providing loans to foreign buyers and insurance for sellers.

Stefanik explained this wouldn’t be any cost to taxpayers. So far, they have the majority of votes, but it’s just a matter of moving the legislation to the floor.

“I’m constantly voicing my frustration to leadership to encourage them to bring the ExIm reauthorization to the floor,” she said. “It’s primary for many

of our manufacturers.”

Trade confusions Stefanik addressed the issue in regards to the public’s confusion on TPA (Trade Promotion Authority): what TPA is and why it’s so important to the North Country.

TPA is a partnership between congress and the administration that ensures the United States secures the most effective trade agreements possible, which will boost presidential authority in negotiating trade deals.

“It’s really an opportunity for the U.S. to play a lead economic role in the world,” Stefanik said.

“I’m proud on my vote for that issue.”

Though Stefanik spoke highly on the TPA, multiple guests from the roundtable discussion, including director of regulatory affairs and consulting for the Deringer Logistics Consulting

Group Robert DeCamp, were more concerned with what comes after TPA, which is TPP. TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership) is a treaty/trade deal between the United States and 11 other countries — Australia, Brunei, Canada, Japan, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam — that would align to provide a global alternative trade to China, an agreement the Bush administration began discussing in 2008.

“It allows the U.S. to take a leading voice and a leading role in ensuring that we’re exporting our manufactured goods,” Stefanik said. “This is going to continue as a debate as we head toward finalizing the transpacific partnership.”

promoting agriculture,” she said. “Agriculture is just as important as manufacturing.”

Colin Read, co-owner of the Champlain Wine Company, agreed with what Stefanik said on growing agriculture and getting both kids and graduates involved with it.

“We have so many kids who want to come in and do something in agriculture,” Read said.

INDIAN LAKE — At Abanakee Studios’ Rookery Gallery in Indian Lake, the month of August has been set aside for an Open Air Painters’ Invitational to showcase the work of three local artists who, in turn, celebrate the beauty of the Adirondacks. The three artists that have their work being showcased are Sarah Yeoman, Francis Gaffney and Joann Quinlivan.

Though all three differ in medium and technique, each has a dedication and focus on the Adirondacks for a core of their respective work.

Beyond the showcasing of the artists’ work and the beauty of the Adirondacks, the purpose of the Invitational and subsequent gallery show includes the support of a very important local resource in the form of the Indian Lake Community Theater.

Each of the artists have set aside some portion of their work to be sold with the total proceeds from that work being donated to the Indian Lake Theater. Gallery visitors easily identify these pieces as they are marked with green dots. In addition, the proprietors of Abanakee Studios, Kathy Larkin and Jane Zilka, are setting aside half of their normal

commissions on the sale of the remaining paintings as a donation to the Indian Lake Community Theater.

“We are pleased to be able to present to the community a show which is so representative of the Adirondacks,” said Larkin. “Each of these talented artists has interpreted the landscape using their own unique approach to their respective medium. We are hoping for an audience of viewers who will appreciate the unique vision and talents of these acclaimed artists. Those choosing to collect

Director Mellissa Mulvey thoroughly enjoyed her time with these kids.

“It has been the third year of this workshop, and it’s a pleasure to work with these young performers,” she said. “The older kids did a great job helping out the younger ones.”

“The kids had so much fun, and we kept them

very busy with lots of great interactive games,” Jay said. “In addition to rehearsing, they played Twister, hot potato, and jump rope; listened to 50’s dance tunes on an actual turntable; worked on arts and crafts; painted their own set pieces; and put together their own outfits.”

And the kids? One could tell that they were having a great time and really enjoying the results of their hard work. The show was terrific.

Director Mulvey had many to thank for this great show, but especially wanted to thank Amiee Olcese, Maryann Sauro, and Joyce Tuffey for all their help during the week leading up to the performance.

A tale of moose and men

species such as crocodile ($7,500) and even elephant, ($42,000) Although the days of the Great White Hunter may be ancient history in most of the world, there are many parks and wildlife refuges across the globe that rely on the funding that wealthy, Great White Hunters provide. Reportedly, Dr. Palmer paid local guides over $54,000 for his most recent hunt. Unfortunately, Palmer’s hunt was obviously not conducted by the standards of fair chase. And even though he claimed to have relied on professional guides to ensure the hunt was legal, Zimbabwean authorities have announced they will seek Palmer’s extradition. Two of his guides, who are Zimbabwean citizens have been arrested and currently face charges. In addition, Zimbabwe Parks Authority officials announced their intention to meet with hunters and others involved in the hunting industry. They have also imposed a ban on hunting lion, leopard, and elephant in the hunting concession lands around Hwange National Park. Hunting anywhere in Zimbabwe with a bow and arrow will only be approved by the head of the wildlife authority. A spokeswoman for the Zimbabwe Parks Authority explained, “The American conducted his hunt in an area where lion hunting is outlawed. The landowner who helped him with the hunt also did not have a quota for lion hunting.”

In Washington, U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., was quick to announce the “Conserving Ecosystems by Ceasing the Importation of Large (CECIL) Animal Trophies Act,” which will expand bans on species that have been proposed for listing as threatened or endangered.”

While the furor is understandable in this day and age, it is easy to forget the Adirondacks were once renowned as a prime area for similar trophy hunting activities. From the 1860’s through the turn of the 20th century, the fashionable elite regularly traveled north in hopes of shooting a trophy black bear, moose, whitetail deer, or any other unfortunate creature that may have been within shooting range.

To this day, many of the old Great Camps feature game rooms that are filled with animals mounts and assortment of whitetail racks and moose antlers. Such trophies were once considered commonplace, until the creatures represented were no longer as commonplace. As the population of iconic species such as black bear, moose, beaver, whitetail deer and even loons began to decline around the turn of the 20th century, sportsmen and landowners joined together in an effort to perpetuate those native animals.

Initially, deer jacking (shooting with the aid of a light) was banned. So too was the shooting or trapping of black bear, and beaver as well. Eventually, sportsmen, camp owners and conservationists joined together to import several pair of beaver and they used the Adirondack railroad for their restocking efforts. Within a decade or so, the stocked beaver successfully restored a viable natural population across the entire region, which gives a new meaning to the term, �busy as a beaver’.

The initial efforts proved to be an amazing exercise in conservation and yet, they still weren’t satisfied. Several of the larger, private Adirondack preserves, continued private efforts to reintroduce moose, elk and even Russian Boar. However, despite the imposed protections, and continued stocking efforts; the Adirondack region was considered devoid of moose by the early 1860’s after a local guide and his sports reportedly shot the last moose near Raquette Lake. By all accounts, it was believed to be the last moose in the Adirondacks for many years to come.

Unfortunately, as moose have again begun to repopulate the region in recent years, a few of them have encountered descendants of the original butchers, who were responsible for the original expatriation of the species from the region.

Last fall, a moose calf was shot and killed near Tahawus, and left to rot. Although the incident was not widely reported, it provides evidence that some people simply can not be considered sportsmen.

Unfortunately, it only requires a single outlaw to ruin the image of all the respectable sportsmen and women who conduct their activities in accordance with the rules and ethics of Fair Chase.

ver the past few weeks, I’ve been dodging a combination of passing thunderstorms, deerflies, horseflies and the invisible hordes of NoSeeUms. Unforturnatel, I’ve had very little success. I’ve been wet, itchy, swollen and bloody; but at least I’ve been outside and I’ve learned how to deal with it. As long as I’m outdoors, deer flies will continue to attack my noggin, and horse flies will continue to bite. As for protection from punkies, I can cover up from head to toe, or stay underwater for an extended duration. Neither option really appeals to me.

Despite the expected pests, I’ve been dealing with a much more nagging ailment in recent days. It comes via the various news wires and carries a sting that’s more potent than any bug, beetle or bee.

I suppose anyone who hasn’t heard the news has either been totally out of touch, or simply just doesn’t care. However, a pair of recent incidents involving an American Dentist and an America Doctor are likely to have repercussions far beyond the arid plains of Zimbabwe, where Drs. Walter Palmer, a Minnesota dentist and Dr. Seski, an oncologist from Pittsburgh traveled to earn their bones as Great White Hunters.

Unfortunately, the Doctors’ African safaris didn’t go as planned.

In fact, they touched off a national and international outcry over the killing of Cecil the Lion, an iconic, protected specimen noted for his dark mane. Cecil was known for posing for the photo safaris that visit the preserve, and appeared almost tame at times.

Reportedly, the African hunt organizers who arranged the hunt for Doctor Palmer lured the lion away from his station at the protected Game Preserve by baiting it with the carcass of another dead animal. When the Cecil left the confines of the game Preserve to feed on the bait, the Doctor shot it with a bow, but he only wounded it.

The iconic lion survived for two days before Dr. Palmer finally shot and killed it with a rifle. Local officials continue to investigate the incident. Subsequent to the Palmer shooting, the Zimbabwe National Parks Authority reported that an American, Dr. Jan Seski of Murraysville, PA, had killed another lion with a bow and arrow while on a hunting expedition near Hwange National Park. According to officials, the Doctor’s expedition was conducted without approval and it occurred on lands where hunting was not allowed.

Dr. Seski, an oncologist at the Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh, is an avid big-game hunter with numerous trophies to his credit, while Dr. Palmer is a dentist from Minnesota.

Together, their separate incidents gave American sportsmen and women a collective black eye for all to see. There have been worldwide condemnations of the recent incidents, which have raised concerns with the private safaris that continue to provide wealthy guests with an opportunity to hunt threatened game species on private lands. While it is easy to condemn the barbaric nature of the recent hunts, it is tough to understate the important contributions that such hunts provide in terms of both wildlife management, and wild land protection.

On average, a Big Game hunter will spend upwards of quarter million dollars on a single African safari. But if you want a chance, you’ll have to make plans quickly according to a Safari Travel Agent, who warns, “African Lion may be closed to hunting soon! Amidst all the hype about Lion hunting one thing is sure, it is only a matter of time Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Conbefore Lion are listed on CITES 1, and hunting them will be a thing tact him at brookside18@adelphia.net. of the past.”

CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora is an international agreement between governments that aims to ensure international trade in rare specimens of wild animals and plants does not threaten their survival.

Individuals interested in pursuing a CITES approved, fully legal, 18 day Lion hunt in the Niassa region of Mozambique, which includes a Lion trophy fee, will have to fork over about $46,500, according to a recent advertisement.

Going back for a slab of pie and donuts

O

ur Champlain valley is home to many agricultural operations. Alfalfa, grass hay, corn, cattle and of course apples are grown on the clay and sandy soils of the valley. Apples are the kings of the market place. Traditional Macintosh, to new varieties like Honey Crisp, deliver the flavor. Consumers are demanding quality and farmers, ranchers and orchardists are following through.

It takes high quality agriculturists to produce food to feed our nation, and Gunnison Orchards in Crown Point is one of them.

To grow quality apples you need quality people, good soil, top notch trees, fertilizers, and other chemicals to control pests. Consumers demand the perfect apple, just like in the magazine photo. So in order to produce them, pomologists use many different chemicals to control insects, mites, fungus and other pests of nature. Accidents can happen!

The Essex County HAZMAT team was graciously given a tour

by Derrick Whitford, one of Gunnison’s Orchard’s staff. Derrick gave us a firsthand look into the operation, showing the team the Controlled Atmosphere (CA) rooms where apples are kept for long term storage. The CA rooms have a low oxygen level to reduce any spoilage, but could become a hazard to employees if they enter when they’re not supposed too.

Chemical use and storage was also explained. Various pesticides and fertilizers are in the buildings and HAZMAT teams need to know what and where they are in case of a spill or other incident where liquids, solids, fumes or vapors could be released. We also reviewed where the mixing stations are and how they operate.

The teams where shown where propane and fuels are stored for forklifts and tractors, in case of a fire. Containing any runoff from a spill must also be controlled so no environmental damage occurs.

The chances of an event ever happening is rare, very rare, but to keep up our self-imposed standards, the Essex County HAZMAT team trains county wide in real places where real accidents could happen.

As firefighters and HAZMAT teams train, we need real life facilities and Gunnison Orchards stepped up to the plate. They gave us a tour and offered their facility where we could practice for such an event.

We practiced using a simulated mock spill. Incident command was set up. The call for additional help including medical personal help went out, information gathering on the chemical, safety briefings, mock entry and decon teams set up, which then led to a final briefing, which finished the evening. We were given a chance to train and learn about, the who, what, and where’s of the apple operation.

Growing apples isn’t just planting a tree and then picking apples in the fall, it’s a sophisticated operation. In spring it may be planting a new variety of trees. Summer brings on the pruning, thinning, and spraying for bugs. As fall approaches, then comes the picking, cleaning and packing and transporting. Fertilizer may be applied at various times depending on the crop of apples or berries or other bright red fruit crops being grown. Winter brings on another round of pruning, cleaning and repairing equipment etc.

Orchards are not just apples any more, diversification, means pies and donuts too!

In order to give the consumer what they want, farmers, orchardists and ranchers use the approved agricultural tools available to fertilize, and control pests, so you the public can have a quality and safe food to eat.

Farm stands and farmers markets are open now, so you can get locally grown food. Take advantage and visit one of your neighbors.

A special THANK YOU goes to Derrick and especially the Gunnison Family for allowing us to visit and train at your facility. We will be back again for a visit, but it will be for a slab of pie and donuts.

Now we just need some hard cider to wash it all down!

OLMSTEDVILLE — It was a beautiful evening for a concert at Courtney Park in Olmstedville on Wednesday, July 15, with the duo of Blair and Barry Gregson, who entertained a large crowd of folks on the lawn at the park.

Playing a mix of established tunes (many from the 70’s) and their own songs, the Gregson Brothers are musicians and fine performers from the Adirondacks who have been playing locally for many years.

Folks of all ages (including toddlers and young kids who found the Courtney Park hill perfect for rolling) came for the concert – sitting, standing and otherwise lounging – everyone enjoyed the time to visit, see old friends, and relax.

The refreshments were offered by the Parents of the MCS Class of 2017. The concert (second in a series of three this summer) was sponsored by the Town of Minerva.

roteins (like other biologically important large molecules) are large molecules assembled from smaller units.

In this case the smaller units are amino acids. There are some twenty different kinds of amino acids, each one having some unique characteristic but all sharing the ability to link up with other amino acids to form proteins - much like a charm bracelet. Many of these amino acids can be made in our bodies. A few, however, are called “essential amino acids” because we need to get them pre-formed in our food - generally by eating foods containing proteins that have these “essential” amino acids as part of their structure.

The proteins made in nature can be very complex both in the sequence of amino acids found along the protein’s backbone and in the unique ways these proteins are folded or coiled in order to accomplish their required actions. Most functioning proteins are extremely delicate and temperatures only a little above normal will cause irreversible unfolding and loss of function. Some proteins function largely for structural purposes, such as the collagen used to make ligaments, others function as tiny engines that do physical work. Included in this group are proteins found in muscles that can contract or relax in response to signals from nerves. Still other proteins perform chemical work by being enzymes (catalysts) that alter the structure of other molecules, building large molecules from smaller sub-units, or breaking down larger molecules into smaller units such as those enzymes that help digest our food. While other proteins residing in cell membranes are engaged in conducting nutrients into cells and/or removing wastes from cells.

Often proteins in this latter category are found to exist as groups of two or more nearly identical proteins joined together to form a supramolecular unit with a cavity or hole down the middle, not unlike a doughnut. The supra-molecular hemoglobin structure that carries oxygen in our blood cells is made up of four independent protein subunits each attached to a special iron containing molecule capable of carrying oxygen. Under the right conditions these four protein molecules will spontaneously selfassemble into the correct configuration of natural hemoglobin.

Techniques for discovering the sequence of amino acids in a protein were just being developed in the early 1960’s. Now scientists have learned how to locate the position of every atom in every subunit of every protein in several of these huge functioning supra-molecular complexes. With this knowledge a group of nine scientists have designed and built a complex artificial protein, not known to exist in nature, that automatically inserts itself into vesicle membranes and “pumps” zinc atoms in one direction while “pumping” hydrogen atoms in the opposite direction, mimicking the action of known transporter proteins so important in healthy cell functioning. Meanwhile two other scientists have constructed an enzymatic protein from fragments of unrelated proteins. This newly designed protein inserted itself into the surface of bacteria and brought about the destruction of ampicillin thus allowing the bacterium to survive treatment with this antibiotic. Interestingly, these researchers optimized the ampicillindestroying activity of their constructed protein by systematically directing changes in the amino acid sequence of their protein - a form of human-directed evolution.

These “proof of concept” experiments enable scientists to better understand the physical and chemical mechanisms that underlie the complex enzymatic, mechanical, or chemical activities carried out by natural proteins.
