The donations collected will be given to the association with money raised this weekend.

2-1-1’s future uncertain Funding needed to sustain program a second year

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The future of a regional 2-1-1 telephone information system is now in question.

John C. Bernardi, executive director of the United Way of the Adirondack Region, said funding for the system — which has been serving Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties since July 1, 2009 — officially ran out following the one-year anniversary of its establishment. However, the Hudson Valley region call center that operates the system is working with the local United Way — which serves as the coordinating entity for the system — to keep the program running until funding is secured.

“We are okay until the end of August because we’ve negotiated a continuation with the call center through then,” said Bernardi, who serves as chairman of a steering committee established to oversee the system.

“Beyond that, the future is uncertain.”

“We’re operating on fumes,” added Bernardi. “[The call center] has been very reasonable.

They want to obviously keep us up and running, but we’re running on fumes.”

The annual operating cost of the system is approximately $85,000 — a fraction of the estimated $350,000-$500,000 cost the United Way steering committee found it would take to establish and operate a new call center in the tri-county region.

The cost of planning and developing the system was funded by a combination of local inkind resources and through 2-11 New York, the organization which facilitates the implementation of 2-1-1 systems. The

overall cost to operate the system was funded through a combination of public-private partnerships such as the United Way, major gifts and endowments and state funding.

However, state funding “is not showing any promise of being reinstated anytime soon,” said Bernardi.

“We’re sort of at a crossroads now with the program,” said Bernardi, who added the steering committee is currently working to identify ways to sustain the program. “We’re looking at some contractual opportunities and some other sources of revenue that we can utilize to sustain the program. Although we don’t have anything concrete at this point.”

One suggestion has been to propose the state consolidate toll-free hotline numbers it operates and use that money to fund 2-1-1 services statewide.

“It doesn’t look promising, but there are efforts under way to convince the state that they’re

wasting a lot of money on tollfree numbers when they ought to be investing in 2-1-1,” said Bernardi.

“Some of those numbers are being answered outside the State of New York, so that would mean money would stay in the State of New York which makes more sense,” added Jeanie D. Roberts, executive director of the North Country chapter of the American Red Cross, who also serves on the 21-1 steering committee.

Both Roberts and Bernardi said they’d hate to see the switch turned off for the system just as it is beginning to pick up speed.

“We really think that year two, which we just started, will be critical in terms of its development and its usage,” said Bernardi who said shutting down the system would be the worst-case scenario. “We just don’t want that to happen because we’ve got a lot of money, time and energy invested in

When to dial 2-1-1 If you’re looking for free information about health and human services available in Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties, call 2-1-1. The service, which is accessible from cellular and landline phones, connects callers with a central call center where an operator is available from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week. The operator is then able to refer the caller to services such as childcare, mental health professionals, food pantries and government assistance programs.

During off hours, a recording will greet callers with directions to call back during regular business hours.

what we think is a very important program.”

According to information compiled for the United Way, the regional 2-1-1 system handled 293 calls from its inception through May 31. Of those calls, referrals were made to 340 providers of health and human services such as mental health counseling, legal services, and providers of basic necessities such as food, clothing and shelter.

Bernardi said he anticipates the number of those who utilize the system to increase if the program continues.

“We think the first year it’s been underutilized but we also recognize that it takes time for this to become familiar to people,” he said. “We really anticipate year two to be year of great growth ... that’s why we fear having to end the program.”

University Police officers to be honored with statewide heroism award Aug. 19 PLATTSBURGH — The State University of New York Police Chiefs Organization has honored three SUNY Plattsburgh University Police Officers for their acts of heroism.

Lt. Michael Kelley and officers Paula St. Clair and Eric Zielinski will be recognized for receiving the University-wide Heroism Award during a 2 p.m. ceremony, Thursday, Aug. 19, at the Olive Mason Flynt House (the president’s residence) on the SUNY Plattsburgh campus.

“The Heroism Award is presented for acts of grave personal danger or highly creditable police achievement,” said University Police Chief Arlene Sabo. “On the night of April 24, Lt. Kelley, Officer St. Clair and Officer Zielinski’s actions in response to a structure fire at 86 Broad St. went above and beyond the call of duty.”

That night, at 3 a.m., University Police received a call reporting an alter-

cation in front of the Macdonough Residence Hall on campus. Arriving on the scene, they found the noise was coming from within the apartment building at 86 Broad St. where a fire had started.

Having notified the fire department, Kelly, St. Clair and Zielinski immediately began to evacuate the building. Zielinski evacuated two individuals who had re-entered the structure and were trying to put out the fire with small extinguishers.

Then, Zielinski re-entered to look for a third person who was reported to still be in the apartment. After locating the individual who had been sleeping on the couch, Zielinski was able to rouse him and move him out of harm’s way.

While Zielinski proceeded to attempt put out the fire, using a chemical fire extinguisher, St. Clair and Kelley checked the apartment for further

occupants. St. Clair located a dog in a kennel and helped remove it to safety.

Zielinski and St. Clair then remained on the scene, assisting with crowd control, while the Plattsburgh City Fire Department put out the remainder of the fire.

Although the structure was saved, two students were displaced because of fire damage to their apartment. Kelley notified the director of residence life on campus, helping the students obtain temporary housing.

“We are proud to honor these three individuals for their acts of heroism, which may have saved the lives of the building residents and their pet,” said SUNY Plattsburgh President John C. Ettling. “Even after the fire was over, Lt. Kelley worked to care for the displaced students, helping to find them housing.”

Family Fun Days to take a step back in time

By Sarah L. Cronk

sarah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Ever wonder what it would be like to not have use of a microwave or stove, or the simple conveniences of prepackaged butter? The Kent-Delord House Museum can show you.

On Sunday, Aug. 8, from 1-3 p.m., the museum will host Second Sunday Family Fun Days, with a focus on “slow foods.”

“This is a new program that we’re introducing this year,” explained board of trustees president Pat Loughan. “It’s going to be something that we always do in the summer on the second Sunday,

July and August.”

The first event was held July 11, and although Loughan did not consider it to be “well-attended,” it was still a lot of fun.

“The people that were here had a blast playing old-time baseball called Rounders,” she explained of the event which focused on oldtime games and crafts.

The next event will allow families to make a feast.

“One of our new members on the education committee has worked in museums in other areas and she’s familiar with programs like this,” Loughan explained.

“So, we just took the idea of the Stone Soup and expanded it so we can make the butter and the ice cream.”

In keeping with the story of Stone Soup, which will be read during the event, children will gather the ingredients to be used, which the museum will have onhand. Families will also put milk, vanilla and sugar in a sandwich bag, as a part of making the ice cream.

For the butter, Loughan said aside from making their own, families will also see a butter churn.

“We’ll show them the butter churn and how tedious it was, because it took a long time.”

“They’re making most of it themselves,” Loughan said of the families in creating their meal.

“The idea goes along with [the Kent-Delord House], that people, a long time ago, had to make

everything themselves. You didn’t have the conveniences that we have today.”

Loughan said the idea of the program is to offer activities the whole family can do together.

“It’s not just for kids. It’s for kids of all ages,” she said. “Sometimes mom and dad or grandma and grandpa can say, ‘Oh, I remember doing that.’”

As it was so popular during the first event, Loughan said a game of Rounders will also be offered if enough people are interested.

For more information, call 5611035. The cost for the Second Sunday Family Fun Day is $3 per person, with a maximum of $10 per family. It is free for museum members.

Open garden coming soon PLATTSBURGH — Cornell Cooperative Extension will host a viewing of a Master Gardner volunteer in the town of Altona Saturday, Aug. 7.

The garden features vegetables, fruits and ornamental plants growing in raised beds and earth boxes. There are water barrels to collect rain, compost bins, and a naturalized area.

The garden will be open from 12-3 p.m. at no charge.

Pre-registration is required by calling 561-7450 or e-mailing jmw442@cornell.edu.

ROUSES POINT — Champlain Valley Habitat for Humanity can always use more funding, especially since breaking ground on their seventh house.

On Wednesday, Aug. 4, there will be a golf tournament at the North Country Golf Club, with a shotgun start at 12 p.m.

CVHFH president Harriet Burrell said the idea for the golf tournament actually came from Christopher Welch, the family for whom the seventh CVHFH home is being built.

“Our new homeowners that we’re building for in Rouses Point, husband Chris Welch, works at the golf [course] and knows a great number of the golfers,” Burrell explained. “It was basically the Welches’ idea.”

Although proceeds from the fundraiser will help CVHFH in general, as the Welch’s home is the next to be built, most of the proceeds will benefit them.

However, the Welches aren’t taking the back seat for this fundraiser.

“They’re very busy getting golfers, getting sponsors, helping with the organizing and they’ll be pretty busy the day of the golf tournament,” Burrell said of Laura and Christopher Welch. “And, all these hours work toward their sweat equity.”

Sweat equity hours is time the homeown-

ers spend on the building of their home, as well as volunteering for Habitat. Both Laura and Christopher Welch will each have to put in 250 hours.

The tournament, which is a four-person scramble, will also consist of mulligans, a betting hole, and skins game. The day will also have prizes and contests as well as a 50/50 drawing. Cash prizes will also awarded to those placing in the top three, with the amount depending on the number of participants.

“It’s a little daunting to me for the first time,” laughed Burrell. “But, we’re getting great support from the golfers and from the golf club itself.”

Burrell added local businesses are stepping up to help as well.

“Each hole is sponsored by several area businesses and they are donating money to have their money advertised at a hole,” she said. “That’s where the majority of the money is coming from. We’re getting support from a lot of area businesses as well.”

The cost for the tournament is $30 for golf club members with their own cart, $40 for members without a cart, and $60 for nonmembers. The cost includes green fees, a cart and an Italian dinner.

“It’s a fun way to support a really good cause,” Burrell said.

For more information or to register, call the golf club at 297-2582 or Burrell at 6439770.

Storm leaves damage to city gym PLATTSBURGH — The City of Plattsburgh Recreation Center sustained extensive water damage during the July 21 rainstorm. Four inches of water collected in the nautilus room, weight room, hallway and portions of the cardio room in the aftermath of the downpour. Most of the flooring in those areas was irreparably damaged.

At its peak, water collected in the front of the building to a depth of about 2 1/2 feet, extending across the grass, sidewalk and roadway. Water poured into the building through the windows and through the emergency exit. It also came in through the main entrance doors and pooled in the lower levels of the building.

Recreation department work crews immediately went to work after the storm to limit the damage is often caused by standing water. By Thursday afternoon, most of the water had been

removed as well as most of the damaged carpets.

“The rooms are in pretty rough shape right now, but luckily none of our equipment was damaged,” said Steve Peters, superintendent of recreation. “Our guys are working hard to repair the rooms and also complete a number of renovation projects during this process. Those areas will be closed for a while, but hopefully our members and residents will be very happy with the results.”

The Nautilus room, weight room and cardio room will be closed initially for seven to 10 days while work crews complete clean-up and renovation projects.

All current full-gym members will receive extensions on their memberships for the number of days the rooms are closed. The golf driving range, track, gym, community room, and locker rooms will all remain open and available.

“We want everyone with interest in running to have a chance.”

A registration party will be hosted at the North Creek station Aug. 6, from 5 to 7:30 p.m. and registration will also be available before the race from 7 to 7:45 a.m., Aug. 7.

The train will depart the North Creek station at 8 a.m. to bring runners and spectators to Riparius where the train will return and the runners will follow the same route. Awards, refreshments and raffles will take place in North Creek following the race.

All are welcome to attend a pre-race pasta dinner hosted

by Marsha’s Restaurant on Main Street. Take-outs are available at 4:30 p.m. and dinner will be served from 5 to 7 p.m. Dinner tickets are required and are available at Marsha’s Restaurant as well as North Creek Community Bank.

With 324 runners already entered and many expected spectators, local businesses will see a growth in business

the day of the race.

“Businesses certainly benefit from the race, but the race also benefits greatly from the support of businesses,” said Arsenault. “This is not just a race, but a community and family event.”

A one-mile family fun run will be held on Main Street after the main race. The cost is $5 to run and children as well as adults are welcome to enter. This family attraction is what makes Race the Train so much more than just a race, according to Arsenault.

Registration is up by 45 runners from last year ’s race already and Arsenault is encouraged by the interest. Dollars for Scholars was able to raise $16,000 before expenses last year and used the money for scholarships for Johnsburg Central School graduates moving on to college.

More information can be found on-line at the registration Web sites or by calling 251-2602.

Runners in the 2009 Race the Train event cross the bridge in Riparius to begin their 8.4 mile trek to North Creek. The event annually draws people from the Plattsburgh area and beyond.

YMCA triathlon marks silver anniversary

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com

Winners of the 2009 Y-Tri Erin Rasco, left, and Jon Parks, right, stand with PrimeLink representative Randy Labombard. PrimeLink has been a major sponsor of the Y-Tri, and fundraiser for the YMCA, for the last seven years.

PLATTSBURGH — Although much has changed in the last 25 years, the same can’t be said for the YMCA’s annual Y-Tri. According to organizer Peter Price, the event has been held pretty much the same way since it began. It includes a half-mile swim, 18-mile bike ride and a four-mile run.

“It’s a triathlon and it’s a YMCA fundraising event that we do,” said Price.

The event, which will be held at Point au Roche State Park Saturday, Aug. 7, at 9 a.m., typically brings out nearly 100 people.

“Almost three-quarters of the people probably are returning,” Price said.

The event, which can also be completed in teams, begins with participants waistdeep in Lake Champlain.

“They go out there, basically a quartermile, swim around and come back,” Price said. “Then, they get out and they transition to the bike and they go all around towards Chazy Landing, turn around and come back. They get off their bike, get their running shoes on and go out two miles [toward Mooney Bay Restaurant].”

Although most of the participants complete the triathlon on their own, some

choose to do it with one or two partners.

“We have maybe 20 teams,” Price said of a typical year. “Of course teams meaning you can do just the bike, just the run, just the swim and kind of tag as they cross.”

Price suggests those who may be interested in supporting the event, but don’t think they can complete it all by themselves, should consider doing it as a team.

“Just to get a feel for it,” he said.

Price said the event also brings out a lot of families, which keeps with the goal of the YMCA of having family events.

However, Price said those considering taking part in the fundraising event, should be properly trained.

“You have to make sure that you’re conditioned properly,” he said. “You certainly need to be prepared for all three events.

It’s not just training for one. Be well-conditioned and prepared and make sure you’re not going outside your means.”

The event usually brings in around $2,500, with proceeds benefitting scholarships to the YMCA or the YMCA camp.

The registration fee, which includes a Tshirt and lunch is $30 for individuals or $51 for a team. Those who register after Aug. 5 should add $5 to the registration fee. For more information, including how to register, call the YMCA at 561-4290.

What you should know — and think you know — about child safety seats “My thought is the people who have already come and received the information jeremiah@denpubs.com are riding around with their kids safely in the vehicle, so we don’t see them again,” she PLATTSBURGH — When it comes to child continued. “They don’t come back to the safety seats, if you think you’ve installed check again.” your child’s correctly, you could be wrong.

Why are seats being installed incorrectly?

“We have kids who are 10 and 12 years old who still only weigh 50-60 pounds. So, they are more safe in a booster seat,” she continued. “People look to the law to guide them, but the law is just a guide. It’s about which seat is safest for the child.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one study found 72 percent of nearly 3,500 observed car and booster seats were misused in a way that “could be expected to increase a child’s risk of injury during a crash.” The center ’s most recent figures, from 2005, showed 1,335 children ages 14 years and younger died as occupants in motor vehicle crashes, and approximately 184,000 were injured. Among children younger than age 5, in 2006, an estimated 425 lives were saved by the use of car and booster seats.

The center also credited child safety seats for reducing the risk of death in passenger cars by 71 percent for infants, and by 54 percent for children ages 1-4.

Those figures can continue to be greatly reduced if more people take advantage of child safety seat inspections and educational information, said Passino LaBarge.

“We’ve learned ways that make [safety seats] a little easier to install correctly and we teach these ways to parents and grandparents,” she said. “We teach them so they can be safe when they travel. If the child is seated incorrectly, the child is in great risk of injury and death, no matter how long the trip is. After all, we know most accidents occur within the first five to 10 miles from your home.”

Free child safety seat inspections are routinely held throughout New York State, with the next scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 7, at AAA Northway, 20 Booth Drive, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Saranac Volunteer Fire Department, 3277 State Route 3, will host an inspection from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on National Seat Check Saturday, Sept. 25.

However, those interested in having their child safety seat examined at any other time may contact the City of Plattsburgh Police Department, Clinton County Sheriff ’s Department or New York State Police and ask for a certified child passenger safety technician, said Passino LaBarge. Certified technicians are also available at CVPH Medical Center and Plattsburgh Pediatrics.

EMTs go paper-free Rescue squad’s record filing now done electronically

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com MORRISONVILLE — When the state recommended ambulance squads consider electronic record filing instead of paper, the Morrisonville Ambulance Service on Banker Road wasted no time.

Last December, the squad purchased a Web-based program called emsCharts, which allows the emergency medical technicians to complete their pre-hospital care records in a much simpler and more organized way.

“If somebody comes to us for instance and says, ‘Hey, I need a record on such and a such a date at such and such a time,’ what we're able to do is actually go into the computer program itself and find whatever kind of information they want, without having boxes and boxes of paperwork and PCRs to go through,” explained critical care EMT Tyler Ashlaw, a member of the Morrisonville squad.

Ashlaw said after training, the EMTs were able to start using the new program in May, reducing the amount of ink and paper previously used.

“To be in the field and see how much paperwork we really do, and see how much this eliminates, it’s pretty amazing,” he

said.

Prior to the new system, PCRs, which consist of a three-carbon copy form, were used for every call the squad responded to.

From there, a copy was then faxed to the hospital. Now, the hospital receives the information with the click of a button.

“When we lock our chart, it goes automatically to the hospital,” Ashlaw explained. “Regardless of where we are.”

The program also sends the paperwork to their region headquarters in Glens Falls and the New York State Department of Health, saving even further paper, as well as postage.

“I couldn’t even tell you how much it saved us, but a lot,” Ashlaw said. “We usually would go through a few cases of paper a year and I think we’re still on the same case of paper that we bought initially in the first part of the year.”

The Morrisonville Ambulance Squad was the first squad in the area to choose the electronic system over paper, which according to Ashlaw is something they strive for.

“Our agency has been pretty much trying to stay ahead of the game throughout its entire existence,” he said.

However, since going live with the new system, Ashlaw said the city of Platts-

burgh’s ambulance squad has now got on board with an electronic filing program.

“They’re just working out the quirks and kinks,” Ashlaw explained.

As for other squads, Ashlaw suggests they consider the change as well.

“It makes your job a lot easier,” he said.

“It’s hard at first, but it pays off in the end.”

New business offers more than just a cup of tea

PLATTSBURGH — A flavorful new spot has opened to the downtown cuisine scene.

My Cup of Tea, located at 50 Margaret St., invites the community to enjoy a cup of tea or some wholesome food in the lemon chiffon painted café.

The business had its soft opening July 12, where patrons came in for breakfast and lunch.

“There isn’t a lot of breakfast places downtown,” said owner Sue LeBlanc. “We hope that people will see us here and we welcome the downtown crowd for lunch and breakfast.”

LeBlanc said the opening went very well, with many people hearing about it through word of mouth.

They offer a gourmet menu for both breakfast and lunch.

The café and tea room offer a variety of options for breakfast such as crêpes, French or English eggs Benedict and a full se-

lection of Boar ’s Head meats, cheeses and condiments for lunch.

“The menu consists of foods that we really like,” said LeBlanc. “We are really adventurous with flavors.”

LeBlanc, a resident of Plattsburgh, owns the café with her son, Brent Davis.

“The talents that we both have work very well together,” Leblanc said. “I’m more the numbers person and books person and Brent is more the flavorful cook and computer guy.”

Nowadays, Davis finds it’s beneficial to treat one’s self to simple pleasures.

“With the economy being so difficult it’s nice to have simple things to treat yourself with,” explained Davis. “To sit down with a friend to a cup of tea and relax.”

“I think people want to go back to a simpler time, when people hosted get togethers,” said LeBlanc, “Tollhouse cookies and Rice Krispies treats,

those are things I grew up making and so did Brent.”

LeBlanc and Davis said as time goes on, they will be open to adding new items to the menu.

“If people are requesting something we will try to have it available,” he said.

LeBlanc hopes people will visit the café, regardless of whether they are tea drinkers.

“We’d love to have everyone stop in and not be intimidated by the tea room title because it’s very casual,” she explained.

“We invite people to come in and sit, smell, and taste what we have available.”

LeBlanc and Davis hope to have a grand opening in the beginning of August.

My Cup of Tea is open Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The tea room will soon be available for private parties, including tea party birthday celebrations and wedding showers.

PLATTSBURGH — There’s a riot coming to town, but it ain’t quiet.

The New York City-based cover band Radio Riot returns to Plattsburgh next week bringing their take on everything from Top 40 hits to alternative rock, R & B and hiphop.

The band — which consists of Marco Ribeiro and Cina Smash on lead vocals, John “The Frog” Faughey on lead guitar and keyboards, Andrew Vitiello on guitar, Will Shelley on bass, and Kevin Bolger on drums — was formed two years ago, after Ribeiro and Faughey met at an audition.

“We both new what kind of band we wanted to be, and after a few personnel changes, we hit on a great lineup,” said Faughey, who also serves as the band’s manager. “Marco came up with the name; he wanted something to convey the energy that this band has. Something exciting.”

And, exciting they are. The band has played across the Northeast getting rave reviews for their diverse song selection and high energy shows.

“The way we sound sonically is what I think sets us apart from the rest of the

bands on the circuit,” said Faughey. “We don’t use a lot of effects on the guitars, or the vocals, and we don’t play to a lot of backing tracks the way most of the bands do today.”

Radio Riot also remains true to the songs they cover, but in a way that remains true to their owns style of playing, said Faughey.

“Being that it’s a cover band, we really just want to play the tunes to the best of our ability,” he said. “A lot of the music today is electronic-based, but we try to keep it as organic as possible.”

That organic flow is the fuel that brings out the band’s energy, which Faughey said is second to none when it comes to comparing Radio Riot with other bands.

“No one will ever out work us on a stage, and I think that is what attracts people to us,” he said. “We love to rip people into frenzy when we play, and we want to make sure that everyone is having the best time possible.”

(Editor’s Note: Radio Riot will perform Friday, Aug. 6, and Saturday, Aug. 7, at the Naked Turtle on Dock Street. Shows will begin at 10 p.m. Check out Radio Riot at www.radioriot.net or find them on Facebook, Twitter and MySpace.)
