REMEMBERING A TRAGEDY

Plattsburgh State marks 1970 Kent State shootings

By Stephen Bartlett stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Tired of gutting their educational system, Plattsburgh City School officials drew a line in the sand.

They are turning to the public to find out what the community will support before they make any more budget cuts.

If the community passes the budget, what is left and hasn’t already been cut will remain in the city’s public education system. If the public votes it down, they may vote on another budget or the district could adopt a CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

Digging in at Plattsburgh Community Garden

PLATTSBURGH — Last year, Jessica Jonesford arrived at the garden in the evening, eyeing her plot and deciding what to harvest for dinner.

“Last year, we had too many tomatoes.”

This year, she’s also planting peppers, strawberries, chives, beans, broccoli and carrots.

“I like eating the food.”

But she moved into an apartment with no land in the City of Plattsburgh and was thrilled to learn about the Plattsburgh Community Garden, which was created in 2009 to create allotment-style gardens in and around Plattsburgh. The goal was to build a community and provide an enjoyable and safe place for people to grow crops, gather as friends and learn gar-

dening techniques.

“We definitely enjoy it,” said Ryan Jonesford. “You get fresh produce and pride in having your own garden.”

But that wasn’t always the case.

Doug Butdorf, chair of the Plattsburgh Community Garden Group, moved to the area in 2005 looking for a community garden.

His grandfather grew up in the Great Depression and advocated for large family gardens. Butdorf learned gardening from him, as well as his mother.

He was frustrated to find no community garden in Plattsburgh and complained for three years before gathering a group and creating one.

“We had to jump through a lot of hoops,” Butdorf said. “It used to be illegal to grow food on property not owned by you.”

Four dead in Ohio: PSU recalls Kent State shootings

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The country has come a long way since the massacres at Kent State and Jackson State, said Plattsburgh State Student Association President Charles Sanchez, but freedom of expression still has a cost, and maintaining your rights — including your ability to challenge authority — requires ongoing effort.

Sanchez spoke during the university’s 42nd commemorative ceremony marking the killings at Kent State and Jackson State.

“During a time of contention and a tumultuous and ongoing war, students gathered to express their discontent and disapproval — an expression of opinion,” Sanchez said, speaking near a memorial on the Kehoe building’s lawn.

“These rights to express freely their opinions, which are guaranteed by our country’s constitution, were not upheld.”

The Kent State shootings occurred when unarmed college students were fired upon by the Ohio National Guard in 1970.

Nearly 30 Guardsmen fired more than 60 rounds in less than 15 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others, one of whom was paralyzed. Many of the students had gathered to protest the Vietnam War. The tragedy sparked protests at hundreds of universities, colleges and high schools throughout the United States.

A resulting student strike grew to include approximately four million young people.

10 days after the Kent State massacre, two black students were killed and 12 were wounded by police at Jackson State under similar circumstances.

A study released shortly after the Kent State shootings found that the protestors represented no danger that called for lethal force.

Rodney Stone had worked as a peace officer at Plattsburgh State for two years when tragedy struck Kent State.

He was working the night shift when a Plattsburgh State member of Students for a Democratic Society threw a chair into a transformer, knocking out power to the campus.

Students burned an American flag and took over the Kehoe Administrative building, which they maintained control of for more than a week.

They also boycotted classes and held demonstrations and a concert.

“I was never in favor of Vietnam,” Stone said.

“I had been in the Navy and went through the Cuban Missile Crisis.”

Stone retired from Plattsburgh State after 31 years. This was his first time back for the ceremony.

Plattsburgh State Provost Dr. James “Jake” Liszka cautioned that students must keep in mind their role as the nation’s conscience and remain engaged.

Those in power, he said, must not abuse that power but use it for the common good.

Those gathered at the commemoration place flowers beneath the Kent State Jackson State memorial at Plattsburgh State.

College challenges students to question the world around them, Sanchez said, and humanity and compassion are lost when the expectation is blind obedience.

“Always remember that although two people may have a difference of opinion, it is only our attitudes and dispositions which get in the way of being able to talk to them out,” he said.

School’s 21st Century Learning Center morphs into Project CONNECT

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A few years ago the federal government awarded Plattsburgh City School a grant intended to make a difference in the lives of students and their families. The result of that grant, the 21st Century Community Learning Center, provides academic enrichment opportunities for children during non-school hours. It was designed to help students meet state and local standards in core academic subjects. The federal money runs out this June, but the program will continue through a new partnership with Plattsburgh State.

The university’s Division of Education, Health and Human Services will implement Project CONNECT, which will continue to enrich the school’s educational program.

“One of the basic tenets of the grant was for schools to take this money, design a program and learn how to implement it so we could

then carry on when the grant money dried up,” said Plattsburgh City School Superintendent James “Jake” Short in a press release.

Funds from the 21st Century Community Learning Center helped provide students with activities that complimented regular academic programs, as well as literacy and other educational services for the children’s families. Students at Bailey Avenue, Momot and Oak Street elementary schools primarily benefited from the programs.

Other community agencies that have been involved with the project over the years include the Clinton County Health Department, the American Red Cross, the Child Care Coordinating Council of the North Country, Behavioral Health Services North, Champlain Valley Family Center, Literacy Volunteers and the Plattsburgh Public Library.

Project CONNECT will be overseen by faculty, students and graduates at Plattsburgh State’s Teacher Education programs.

“We wanted something that would focus on strengthening our partnership with schools,” said Dr. Michael Morgan, dean of Education, Health and Human services at Plattsburgh State.

Project CONNECT will assist students with homework and provide tutoring, as well as reading and literacy programming, recreation, nutrition education and field trips. It starts after school this fall and runs to 5:30 p.m. on school days. While the Learning Center was free, there will be a cost for students participating in the new program that starts at $40 for one child and does not exceed $300 per month. Tuition for students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches will be on a sliding scale.

The program provides student teachers with increased opportunities to practice early. The teacher education unit will have students embedded in the schools doing field work, along with professors.

Project CONNECT will also provide opportunities for students in speech, hearing and special education, as well as those in specialized areas such as math, science and foreign languages.

All of this benefits students in the program, said city school officials.

“As we looked at it and thought about it, we saw how it extends the educational component of a school,” Short said.

Re-enactors brought the American Civil War to life in Beekmantown recently.

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN — John Dodge appreciates the time he spends sleeping under a tent in full Confederate gear.

When he steps outside, he breathes in the smell of gunpowder as the fog of war slips over the field.

As he hid in the woods and prepared for battle, he smiled under the bright sun and motioned to the men on either side of him. “There is a sense of comradery here,� he said.

Dodge was one of many re-enactors from the North Country and Canada who gathered in Beekmantown this past weekend to bring the American Civil War to life. This is the fifth year the event has been held, though this year it relocated from the former Plattsburgh Air Force base to Beekmantown. “We wanted to find a more permanent space,� said Matt Hewson of Plattsburgh, who organizes the event.

He explained that those gathered were trying to provide spectators with an example of what camp life was like for military men.

The fighting was not based on any particular battle, but was more of a representation of what it would have been like for soldiers. “We are trying to cultivate living history in the area,� said Hewson, who also reenacts WWII. The American Civil War (1861-1865) was instigated when 11 Southern states declared secession from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America. The primary factors that caused the war included slavery, the idea of “states’ rights,� party politics, the abolitionist movement, sectionalism, and economics.

The Confederacy surrendered after four years of warfare, mostly within the Southern states, and slavery was outlawed.

The Civil War remains the deadliest war in American history, claiming the lives of roughly 750,000 soldiers, as well as those of

many civilians. The death toll has been estimated at 10 percent of Northern males 20-45, and 30 percent of Southern white males 1840. “The Civil War was one of the most heart-wrenching moments in American history,� Hewson said. “It was a defining moment in our country, and the end result was a more unified nation. If you want to understand how things progressed, you have to understand what came before.�

American Civil War reenactment is most common in the United States, but it also occurs in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia and Italy.

It began before the fighting had even ended, when veterans began recreating battles to remember comrades and teach others about the war.

More than 50,000 Union and Confederate veterans attended the Great Reunion of 1913 to celebrate the Battle of Gettysburg and conduct reenactments.

Reenacting’s popularity grew during the 1980s and 1990s, and the 135th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, which was held near the original battlefield, is considered the largest re-enactment ever held, with between 30,000 and 41,000 re-enactors.

The number of Civil War re-enactors was estimated at 50,000 in 2000, though those numbers dropped to roughly 30,000 in 2011.

Dodge began re-enacting eight years ago through the Battle of Plattsburgh and his involvement mushroomed from there. He also participates in Revolutionary War, French and Indian War, Spanish-American War and WWII re-enactments. “We have so much history, and I want to get people interested,� he said. “This brings an element of realism no book could ever do,� added Hewson. “You get to engage and interact with a part of history that is being brought to life.�

Postal Service bailout a flawed plan

T

he United States Postal Service — the country’s second-largest civilian employer after Wal-Mart — is on the brink of a colossal financial meltdown.

As USPS stares bankruptcy in the face, some people believe it is up the House to do what the Senate has already done and pass legislation to keep the Postal Service and its 571,566 full-time jobs intact.

We do not, and apparently neither does the Postal Service’s management.

It is not surprising that the Postal Service finds itself in this financial quagmire.

The growing popularity of e-mail and electronic bill payments has sent mail volume plummeting in the past decade. In just the past five years, the Postal Service's annual volume declined by 43 billion pieces. First Class mail declined 25 percent in the same period of time.

Faced with billion-dollar-deficits and a business model that is slowly going the way of the 8-track tape, Postal Service officials, to their credit, came up with a restructuring plan they hoped would keep them solvent.

It was a financially prudent strategy that called for the closing of up to 252 mail-processing centers — including the one in Plattsburgh — as well as 3,700 post offices — including many in small, rural communities all over the North Country; places such as Schuyler Falls, New Russia, Riparius, North Hudson, Bakers Mills, Ellenburg and Moriah Corners.

The concept is simple enough — less mail means less need for offices and employees.

The restructuring plan, which also proposed halting Saturday delivery, was supposed to save some $6.5 billion a year — and stop the financial hemorrhage.

In the last five years alone, the Postal Service has lost $25 billion and is projected to lose another $14 billion by the end of this year. It loses $25 million a day.

Only 20 percent of its offices are profitable, and its employee expenses are way out of line with those in the private sector. Wages and benefits for its 571,566 full-time employees account for 80 percent of its operating budget, compared with 61 percent of UPS's and 43 percent of FedEx's.

The average USPS employee makes $83,000 in salary and benefits annually, much more than most other federal employees.

Many post offices and branches that face closure provide very little revenue. In fact, 84 percent of the locations on the closure list take in less than $27,500 in annual revenue and have less than two hours of work a day, according to Dean Granholm, the Postal

Service's delivery and operations vice president.

But, instead of allowing the Postal Service to save itself — and the taxpayer — from disaster, Washington is playing election-year politics and has proposed an $11 billion bailout that will keep the Postal Service limping along a few more years.

After that, if the Postal Service is not allowed to eliminate expenses it will need to return with its hand out again, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe has said.

“It is totally inappropriate in these economic times to keep unneeded facilities open. There is simply not enough mail in our system today,” the Postal Service's board of governors said in a statement.

Nevertheless, the U.S. Senate passed a bailout bill in late April, with senators from both parties lining up in favor.

The bill would save Saturday delivery and rescue about half the mail processing centers the Postal Service wants to close, cutting the list from 252 to 125.

Not surprisingly, the processing centers that would survive are in states whose senators were sponsors of the postal bill — like Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Missouri and Vermont, according to a preliminary list obtained by The Associated Press.

Therein lies the problem.

This is not about “saving an iconic American institution that still delivers 500 million pieces of mail a day,” as bill co-sponsor Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut put it.

It is little more than an election-year gimmick to give senators the ability to stand at a podium in November, pounding their chests while telling voters through toothy grins that they stood against postal closures.

The bailout money is nothing more than a BandAid to get the Postal Service through the election cycle. Without real reform, it remains doomed to extinction.

The bill now goes to the House for consideration, with a May 15 deadline looming when postal officials have vowed to start making cuts.

Let’s hope the outcome will be a long-term plan to save America’s 200-year-old Postal Service, and not another spending binge at the expense of the American taxpayer in the interest of those seeking re-election.

March for outdoor seating and electric cars E

ver drive past Irises and the Pepper on City Hall Place or Olive Ridley’s on Court Street and feel the urge to reach out the window and grab a cheeseburger, perhaps some seared tuna or maybe even a plateful of burritos?

My throat once experienced its own drought and I nearly swiped a sweaty glass of Switchback when I recalled, sitting behind the wheel of my Subaru Outback, drinking and driving is dangerous and illegal. What should be illegal is modeling that beer inches from my car window.

If you are wondering what I’m ranting about, it’s outdoor seating at area eateries. A few of our local establishments have set up shop in parking spots along well-traveled streets.

It’s a yearly tradition. The snow melts, though this year it never really fell, the sun warms the outside, spring blossoms color the area, trees and grass go green, and restaurants slap tables and chairs in parking spots along the street.

The first time I saw this I

thought, “cool,” followed by, “I want that Philly Cheese Steak,” which, as I drove by, was replaced by, “I think I could actually reach out my window and grab that Philly Cheese steak.” I haven’t tried yet, but every time I drive by I wonder.

A few times I have seen friends and considered high fiving them on the way by, but I know I’d pull a, “heehee, you’re too slow,” and grab the plate of spaghetti. It’s especially difficult to restrain myself when it’s a plate of chocolate cake dripping with syrup, or deep fried ice cream.

There is a barrier between myself and the patrons in the form of jersey barricades, which restaurant employees kindly paint. But the cement barriers are barely knee high and really are only meant to stop a car from blasting into the tables on the off chance a passing driver sneezes or is texting and doesn’t see the car in front of him or her stop.

The barrier does not in any way mean your food is safe if I should cave when your calamari enters my eyesight.

From the Editor’s Desk I’ll get serious now and admit I am exaggerating. No, I’m straight up lying, because I in no way am going to nab and consume your food. I am not going to reach out my window as I pass, or force my 17-year-old daughter to do it under the threat of being grounded if she doesn’t, and steal your tasty steak.

But it’s not because I can’t. I’m definitely sticking to the fact I can reach out and grab that plate off your table. C’mon, you’re sitting

in a parking space alongside a busy road.

The reason I am not going to steal your food is pollution and contamination.

I drove by the eateries recently and wondered as a bird passed overhead, “Is it going to drop a bomb in that man’s plate?”

Birds do that. I have been pooped on while eating at a barbecue more than once, twice while running and definitely on the beach. What’s to stop birds from pooping on your food? They are circling overhead at the first chance to eat it. How much longer do you think the moldy diaper from the trash they fought over earlier that day will remain in their intestines?

And what about exhaust? When you open your mouth to bite into an enchilada, do you also chew on the black cloud my muffler coughs up. I know my muffler is vomiting a thick cloud of blackness because I refuse to cave to the automobile industry’s service scam and fix my exhaust.

I’ll buy a hybrid before I give them the satisfaction of fixing the

faulty product they put on my car.

Speaking of hybrids: A friend of mine was talking about the death of the electric car and how big oil is behind it and will wipe out the Middle East and Canada for oil before they allow affordable electric cars to be built.

Another fact is that nationwide oppression, inadequate health care and climate change are not inspiration enough to get Americans off their couches in numbers that could affect change.

But Americans love to eat, and they love to show off. Outdoor seating provides an outlet for both simultaneously.

So gather your outdoor parking space eating friends, march on Washington and demand affordable electric cars.

In the end, we both win. I get a new hybrid and you can stop swallowing exhaust when you are trying to enjoy the French fries you just dipped in ketchup.

Apologizing and forgiveness are key skills in mending and sustaining relationships. We should apologize when we are careless with our words or make a bad decision that needs to be revisited. This builds trust with your daughter as she recognizes that you both want what is best for each other.

Nurture and tend to the relationship daily by creating a recreational aspect to your mother/daughter time, as this is supportive and makes room for deeper conversation.

he NCSPCA would like to announce an exciting upcoming event; The Lake Placid Center for the Arts will be hosting “Artists for Animals,” an art show to benefit our shelter, from June 1 through June 16. The show’s theme is “works of art with animals in mind,” and will feature paintings, drawings, sculpture, and other media by national and local artists. All art will be for sale, and proceeds will go to the NCSPCA’s Capital Campaign to build a new shelter for the needy dogs and cats of Essex County.

An opening reception will be held on Friday, June 1, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts (17 Algonquin Drive, Lake Placid. www.LakePlacidArts.org. 523-2512). Everyone is welcome; the exhibit will be suitable for children. We would like to thank in advance the Lake Placid Center for the Arts, and the many artists presenting their work at the show, for their support of this benefit.

The Capital Campaign is an ongoing fundraiser to obtain the money needed in order to build our new shelter, which will be located in Elizabethtown, just a mile from Exit 31 on the Northway. Our current shelter is housed in a 40-year old building in very poor condition which is far too small to accommodate the more than 400 abused, abandoned, and surrendered cats and dogs that find refuge there each year. Our featured pet this week is Pickles, a Labrador Retriever/Bloodhound mix, who is three months old and the bouncy, wiggly, squcksy, huggable puppy that everyone needs in their life!

Pickles Pickles is a real charmer, with the cutest worry wrinkles over her eyes and lively personality that is all about playing and having fun. Since she arrived at the shelter, Pickles has worked hard at her leashwalking skills and has made it overnight in her kennel without any accidents. We think she is a very smart little lady. Picles has lived with an older dog and has been around cats without any problems.

She should mature around 40 to 50 pounds, just the right size to fit into any home. Come check out Pickles and bring a toy!

Library director hopeful speaks to public

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Plattsburgh Public Library is open to all.

“It is the great equalizer,” said veteran librarian Colleen Pelletier, who hopes to replace Stanley Ransom as the library’s director.

Pelletier recently spoke to the public about the library and her desire to become its director, touching on accessibility, technology and the possibility of a special tax district to help provide resources and avoid over-burdening taxpayers in a difficult economic climate.

“The future of public libraries are tied to how society works,” Pelletier said. “If society changes, so do public libraries.”

Ransom, 83, retires at the end of this month after four years as the library’s director. He was retired from the Clinton-EssexFranklin Library System when he took the position.

Plattsburgh Public Library hosts more than 2,500 visitors a week. Community usage has increased as people turn to the library for information and resources as the economy struggles.

Ransom earned $56,650 in the position, which requires a master’s degree in library services, a public library professional certificate and at least five years of experience in administration.

Pelletier, a native of Troy, has worked at Plattsburgh Public Library for 22 years.

City School from page 1 contingency budget, which would mean roughly $1.2 million more in education cuts.

If the budget is defeated twice, the school board must adopt a contingency budget with strict spending limitations and cuts that would significantly alter Plattsburgh City School.

“That would change the very nature of this district,” said board member Fred Wachtmeister.

District residents can vote on May 15, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., at the Duken, Momot and Bailey buildings.

School officials are requesting that community members fill out an exit poll that will help guide them in future budgetary decisions.

Plattsburgh City School adopted a 2012-13 budget that totaled $38,388,474, a decrease of 0.03 percent from the current spending plan.

It carries a tax-levy increase of 5.82 percent. The district’s taxlevy increase is capped by the state at 3.01 percent, which means the 2012-13 spending plan must garner approval from at least 60

Through libraries, she said, information is more freely accessible to people in an organized and trustworthy way.

“We access and organize information and provide it to people,” she said. “We are accessible to all people, not just those who can afford technology. This library caters to everybody who walks through the door.”

But the price tag for providing information is climbing and budgets are under the axe. Plattsburgh Public Library needs money to function, and those funds usually come from taxpayers.

Plattsburgh Public Library faced an especially troubling situation earlier this year, with a hefty deficit and the looming possibility of cuts that were barely avoided when the city provided more money and employees made contract concessions.

“We are always looking for more money,” Pelletier said.

She suggested that within five years Plattsburgh Public Library become a special tax district. Special districts provide services to people living within them and often cross the lines of towns and villages. Critics complain that the “subgovernments” that are created provide direct access to the public’s pocketbooks.

Pelletier said a special tax district-funded library can provide more services, hire more staff and offer increased outreach, possibly visiting places such as nursing homes and senior housing.

“The money we get from the city will hit a ceiling, and we need to look for further funding,” Pelletier said. “A special tax district can expand the tax base and would include the city and town and

a couple other towns. Any town with its own public library would not be part of the tax base.”

percent of voters.

The tax rate is estimated to increase from $21.36 per $1,000 of assessed property value to $22.62.

Revenues in the spending plan were down nearly 4 percent, and state aid has dropped considerably over the years while costs have soared.

“We have to live within the budget lines if this budget is passed,” said Superintendent James “Jake” Short. “We may have to make cuts mid-year just to adjust to anything that comes up.”

The school district is no stranger to cuts. During the 2009-10 school year, it saw $600,000 in cuts due to decreased state aid and rising costs. Reductions in recent years total more than $6 million.

Courses, athletics, positions, and equipment are among the things that have been cut.

“The board drew a line in the sand and was tired of reductions and is asking the community to vote,” Short said. “It is the community’s voice and the community’s choice.”

The 2012-13 budget before voters includes eliminated positions, reductions in guidance services and summer curriculum, cuts to field trips, significant athletic reductions and other cuts.

“If the budget fails, we could go to contingency budget or pres-

ent a second budget,” Short said.

A second failed budget results in an automatic contingency budget, which features no tax levy increase. That would entail many more cuts.

Further cuts would mean more layoffs. Areas next in line to be eliminated or reduced include music, Odyssey, child advocates, foreign languages, and summer guidance.

“We are seeing a shift in cost from the state to local communities,” said Wachtmeister, who says that is why school districts and taxpayers are faced with their current struggles.

Short argues that districts have seen no relief from unfunded mandates and that, in fact, they are facing new mandates they are not financially equipped to handle.

School officials said they hear from people who value education and want to support the system and those who are strained by taxes, and that the members of the second group are not necessarily anti-education, but have their backs against the wall financially.

Plattsburgh City School officials have offered to share and merge services with other districts to relieve some of the financial burden.

“I think the same economic climate will be facing the board for a couple years,” Short said.

Librarian Colleen Pelletier speaks to the public about libraries and her desire to replace retiring Plattsburgh Public Library Director Stanley Ransom.

Shine On! Conference turns spotlight on girls’ confidence

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Morgan Polhemus knows that models in magazines use a lot of makeup and that photos of them are digitally manipulated.

The 10-year-old Momot Elementary School fifth grader gained that insight last weekend at the Shine On! Conference, an overnight event held at the CVPH Wellness Center in Plattsburgh for third-, fourth- and fifth-grade girls.

In one workshop, the girls looked at magazines and found pictures that portray unrealistic images of women in advertising.

The girls then ripped the pages from the magazine and threw them out, symbolically refusing to accept the message.

“We learned that beauty isn’t just on the outside,” Polhemus said. “We learned that we shouldn’t pay attention to endorsements that say you’ll look better if you do this or buy that,

or you’ll be more popular if you do something in a certain way.”

The conference evolved from an extra-credit practicum created for public relations majors last year by Assistant Professor Colleen Lemza to a credit-bearing, two-semester event-planning class. It received funding through a grant from the CVPH Foundation in association with the Girl Scouts of Northeastern New York.

“Last year, it was a four-hour workshop held on a Saturday.

We had no money; we worked on a shoestring budget,” Lemza said. 90 girls signed up.

“This year, we had more than 180 girls attend,” she said.

Lemza had to turn away 92 girls.

“Obviously, it’s striking a chord.

The whole point of the conference is to try to develop resiliency in young girls. Everything out there says they can’t do this or they can’t do that. It’s all about looks; it’s all about being pretty or popular — being the fastest, CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Future looks bright for Nova Bus

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Nova Bus is moving ahead with new partnerships, innovations and legislative assistance that will benefit its local operation. The local company is a leading provider of sustainable transit in North America.

The company has announced a new partnership with the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority, which has placed an order for seven 40foot buses.

“It’s a new market for us, and we look forward to providing them with distinctive vehicles that feature cuttingedge design, cost savings, and the perfect balance of style, function and maintainabili-

ty,” said a press release from Novas’s CEO, Gilles Dion.

The LFX Smart Bus includes a proprietary integrated electric engine cooling system that can improve fuel economy by up to 18 percent.

MVTA also wanted a sleek, appealing design and the ability to handle large passenger loads at elevated platforms.

Nova’s bus offers a single roofline, a new interior design and large doors. The model features disc brakes, composite flooring and all-LED lighting options for improved safety and cost savings.

“The Minnesota Valley Transit Authority is very excited to add this bus to our fleet,” said MVTA Chair Gary Hansen.

The buses will be assembled in Plattsburgh and deliv-

ered in the fall of this year.

Nova Bus officials are also pleased that Congressman Bill Owens submitted bills Congress may act on later this year to reduce tariffs on its products.

The bill, which also pertains to other company’s products, comes up every few years with little opposition, though it must pass through a review process by the International Trade Commission and other federal agencies.

Finally, Nova Bus expects to produce transit buses that run on compressed natural gas.

The company plans to invest up to $4 million on the venture as the demand for such buses rises.

That work is planned for next year.

Chazy historic site tour held May 12

By Stephen Bartlett

Stephen@denpubs.com CHAZY — The Clinton County Historical Association’s May 12 program will feature Chazy’s Town Historian, Bob Cheeseman, who will take participants to historic venues and cemeteries in Chazy as part of the association’s partnership with town historians.

“This tour will include several cemeteries,” said Tricia Davies, Director/Curator of the historical association. “Some of the places are usually locked, but Bob got permission to have them open.”

The May 12 itinerary includes Miner’s Little Red Schoolhouse, the Chazy Historian’s Office, Riverview Cemetery with the Miner Mausoleum and Chapel, Miner Farm Museum, Sacred Heart and other historic cemeteries.

“They are also going to Heart’s Delight Farm and will take a tour of that with Bob,” Davies said.

Heart’s Delight Farm was developed in 1903 on William H. Miner’s family homestead of 144 acres in Chazy. By 1918 it had grown to 12,000 acres.

Cheeseman will share stories related to the sites visited and the area during the tour.

“Bob is such a treasure to our history community and is such a gracious host,” Davies said.

The Clinton County Historical Association has hosted several tours in the area, including tours of Ellenburg and Saranac. A similar tour of Schuyler Falls will be held in the fall.

Anyone interested should contact the museum at 561-0340 or by email: director@clintoncountyhistorical.org. The cost for the program, which includes lunch, is $15 per person and $25 per couple.

Davies believes Cheeseman will be the highlight of the tour.

“He is a humble man and a storyteller and he knows the history of the whole county,” she said.

“He truly has a deep personal knowledge of the area.”

Girls’ conference from page 7 being the best. As a result, we watch girls go from rambunctious 5- and 6-year-olds to girls who question their appearance and ask if their rears look big at age 8.”

Chyresse Wells, a senior PR major from Ballston Spa, helped with the inaugural program and was back for a second time “I enjoyed the event-planning aspect as a class, but I especially loved the objective,” Wells said.

“Girls at this age are so impressionable. This is a great opportunity for us to give them positive role models to look up to.”

Upon registration, the girls were divided into groups and aced with a set of strangers.

“They were forced to interact with new people and make new friends,” Lemza said. “The whole point was for them to overcome their resistance to being separated from their friends — that they could persevere and become resilient. We had a few tears, but that didn’t last very long.”

At regular intervals, the groups of girls would

rotate to different areas such as the magazine station, a T-shirt station where they had to ask others to sign their shirts and a media presentation on body image and self-esteem.

As part of the event-planning coursework, the college students had to work out the logistics of feeding and housing more than 180 girls, moving them from station to station and giving each group time in the Wellness Center pool.

A parental component on the second day brought in 41 mothers and guardians and included workshops on how to talk to daughters about body image, how to provide healthy meals for families on the go, and how to address bullying.

Another aspect of the Shine On! Conference that Lemza appreciated is the fact that it departmental lines within the college.

More than 40 SUNY Plattsburgh students majoring in counseling and teacher education signed on as volunteer counselors for the groups of girls.

“The counselors are all here because they love kids,” Lemza said. “It’s good experience, and it’s great community service, but truth be told, they’re here because they want to be around the girls.”

PLATTSBURGH — On April 27, law enforcement officers from the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office and New York State Police Troop B participated in a joint initiative to enforce the Move Over Law on Interstate 87.

The initiative resulted in the following tickets being issued: Speeding:10; Seatbelts: 3; Failure to Obey a Traffic Device: 2; Failure to Move Over for an Emergency Vehicle: 43.

The law states that every operator of a motor vehicle must

exercise due care to avoid colliding with an authorized emergency vehicle displaying one or more red or combination red and white lights. For drivers on highways, due care includes moving from a lane that is adjacent to a shoulder where an emergency vehicle is parked, to another lane.

Marsha Lawrence has a plot at Penfield. She’s gardened there for three years and says she appreciates what she has learned from others and that she’s excited about her fresh Swiss chards.

Plots run $25 for 100 square feet at Penfield and $50 for 300 square feet at Hulbert. The fee covers soil, water, the use of community tools, training and more.

This creates an opportunity for people in the city without space and forms a “micro-city,” Butdorf said.

“You are responsible for your plot and you have neighbors and have to work within a community,” he said.

People of all ages spend time at the gardens, something the area needs more of, he said.

Gardening can be therapeutic and meditative, especially weeding, which doesn’t take much thought and can be a welcome reprieve from a stressful, intellectually taxing workday — plus, “at the end of the day, you get really good tomatoes,” as Butdorf noted.
