A smoke test to be will be performed on Oct. 18 in the town to check for any leaks in the water systems that could be costing taxpayers.

As part of the New York State rural water association and waste water department agr eement (NYSRWA) the test for sanitary sewer leak smoke test in Champlain Park has been ap proved by the town boar d to see wher e storm water and surface water is entering the water treatment system.

“The intention of the test is to locate and identify a source of infiltration, to determine repair and replacement needs and institute future maintenance schedules that will save taxpayers and the town money,” Bernar d Bassett, Town Supervisor said. “The rural water association has agr eed to assist water and waste water department at no cost to the town of Plattsburgh or the water and waste water department to conduct a smoke test in the Champlain Park sewer district.”

The smoke to be used in the test is a non-toxic, dry, smoke manufactured specifically for the pur pose of testing sewer lines. It will not leave a residue, stain or have any effect on plant or wildlife. It has a distinct odor and the visibility that should dissipate within a few minutes.

Plattsburgh Farmers and Crafters Market wrapping up season

By Jeremiah S. P apineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The end of the season for the Plattsbur gh Farmers and Crafters Market is here.

Patricia Parker, manager of the market, said this year ’s season — which will wrap this Satur day, Oct. 8 — went “r emarkably well” due to the continued variety the market has had to offer.

This year ’s market, said Parker, featured Master Gar dener volunteers on hand each week to answer questions from the public, a weekly informational booth fr om the Clinton County Women, Infants and Children's Program, and even repeat visits fr om Community Link Mobile Health, most recently offering flu shots.

“If you pr ovide quality pr oducts and service, people r eturn. I can see it getting better each year ,” said Parker.

The market expanded this year by putting up tents at the end of the Durkee Street Pavilion for new vendors. New to the market this year wer e two meat vendors, a baker of fering gluten-fr ee baked

goods, and a young woman who does quilting and sewing, said Parker.

Christa Zoeller of T -n-T Bakeshop, Keeseville, was among the new vendors at this year ’s market. Zoeller said she first heard of the market through a friend who has hosted a booth there.

“He said I should check i t out because I was doing other markets last year,” said Zoeller. “And, this one is local for me. It’s only 15 minutes away.”

The r esponse has been overwhelming, said Zoeller.

“The people have been gr eat ... my favorite part has been hanging out with the customers and striking up conversations,” said Zoeller.

Though it’s not all about making small talk, she added. Zoeller said her business has done “really well” at the market, drawing customers in especially with her unique creations.

“We had a cupcake made of beets and chocolate with a maple frosting that stirred up quite a bit of inter est,” said Zoeller , laughing. “That’s what I like, making

something that gets people talking.”

Julie Giguere of Plattsburgh also joined the market this year with her home-based sewing business, “I’m Sew Crazy.” Giguere said she was appr oached by Parker at a craft fair last year , encouraging

her to join the market.

“I thought I’d give it a try. And, I’m glad I did,” said Giguere. “I’m not making millions, but it’s not really about the money. It’s just so much fun, especially meeting new people.”

Candlemaker Evan V acarr was

also new to the market, joining for the first time last week. Vacarr inherited candlemaking equipment and thought he’d try his hand at bringing by his cr eations to sell them to marketgoers.

“I definitely want to get my initial investment back,” Vacarr said of his r eason for joining the market. “I also want to meet new people, maybe expand someideas and get my name out there.”

That’s what it’s all about, said Parker.

“I think farmers markets ar e wonderful,” she said. “Y ou get to buy dir ectly fr om the pr oducer, grower or artisan. You know the product and where it came from ...

All of our ven dors take pride in their pr oducts. Our customers know and appreciate that.”

“If you haven't been [to the market] it is a good time to just check us out,” she added.

The Plattsbur gh Crafters and Farmers Market will end its season this Satur day, with the market open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Shared services key to school futures

T

hese are difficult times for school districts. They face unprecedented budget cuts while at the same time feel the pressure to offer better educational opportunities for students. And it’s about to get even tougher. The new state 2 percent tax cap will handcuff schools even more in the 2012-13 academic year.

What’s a school administrator to do?

The answer may well lie in shared services.

The state comptroller ’s office has issued a paper on “Local Government and School Accountability.” The top item in its list of suggested school costsaving measurers is “cooperation and consolidation.” While Ticonderoga and Crown Point school districts have asked the Department of State for an application for grant money to conduct a merger study, it’s unlikely any local schools will be combining in the near future. That leaves cooperation.

This fall Crown Point is sending six students to Ticonderoga High School daily to take a physics class. Crown Point will pay Ti for cost of lab materials and incidentals, but the agreement is much less expensive for Crown Point than hiring a physics teacher and setting up a lab.

“It’s working out very well,” John McDonald, Ticonderoga superintendent, said. “It’s a good opportunity for these kids to get a class normally not available to them. We’re happy to provide it.”

McDonald is also pleased local schools are sharing some transportation costs this year.

Moriah shuttles St. Mary’s students from Crown Point to and from the Ticonderoga school daily. Ticonderoga drops off and picks up Crown Point’s CV-Tech Mineville students on their way by twice a day.

“Our efforts to share services as we can speaks to the ways all our districts

are doing their best to make opportunities for students available within limited budget constraints,” Shari Brannock, Crown Point superintendent, said.

Shared services is nothing new for many scholastic athletic teams. Minerva-Newcomb and Indian Lake-Long Lake have fielded combined sports teams for several years. Moriah, Westport, Keene and Elizabethtown-Lewis have had joint track and swimming teams. Saranac, Peru and Seton Catholic share a hockey team.

And there are opportunities for other shared services, such as joining forces with local colleges.

Crown Point and other area districts participate with North Country Community College and Paul Smith’s College to offer classes that simultaneously garner high school and college credit. The classes are taught at local schools by local teachers with the approval of NCCC and Paul Smith’s.

The NCCC and Paul Smith’s classes include English composition I and II, creative writing, Adirondack history, psychology, American history I and II, integrated algebra, statistics, financial accounting, and introduction to nutrition.

Schroon Lake Central School has similar arrangements with SUNY-Albany and Adirondack Community College.

School district administrators need to take a close look at their neighbors with an eye toward sharing even more services — services that ultimately benefit students and taxpayers.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR/WEEKLY COLUMNS • www.the-burgh.com - 7

Kudos to Corinna Maggy I just wanted to let you know how happy I was to see that you will be devoting several of your articles to the healthy lunchbox issue. My kids announced to me two years ago that the school lunches just were not satisfying to them and they asked if they could start taking their own lunches to school. I am a stay at home Mom, so I do have time to get up in the a.m. to prepare and pack a nice variety of hot and cold lunches and it has worked out very well for us. It was difficult at first. I was a big fan of the old plan of writing a check to the school every month and not having to . But now it is a healthy habit think about that one meal a day and the kids ar e very pleased with the meals they find in their lunchboxes. They are even to the point where they expect spinach on their sandwich or as a salad at least once a week, which baffles most of their friends!

I have eaten in several school cafeterias and have come to feel strongly that the school lunch system is in need of a major overhaul. It is financially a losing business that is largely failing in it’s mission to pr ovide healthy meals for our children. And its effect is that it takes some of the responsibility for childhood health away from the family and puts it on the government. But why should New York State be r esponsible for my child’s health? Shouldn’t the parents take pride in their ef forts to raise childr en with healthy eating habits? Aren’t school-age children perfectly capable of making healthy food choices themselves by packing their own lunches? Can’t a six-year -old even take r esponsibility for that small task every day? Even the poore st families already

get food stamps. Can’t they even af ford to pack a sandwich every day? Would it really take long for kids to start learning fun new lunch ideas from each other in the cafeteria?

I feel that the school should pr ovide a fresh salad, a piece of fr uit and a carton of milk every day and r equire the childr en to ce bring their own main dish. This would for parents to think mor e about what is going into their child’s bodies every day and would still pr ovide a suf ficient nutritional alternative for those who can’t or won’t pack their own main dish. It would also encourage schools to sear ch locally for fr esh produce (an apple a day would be very easy in the North Country) and would gr eatly r educe the overall cost of the pr ogram by eliminating packaged foods and hot meal pr eparation. In the end, everyone would be healthier in so many ways.

Thank you so much for bringing public attention to the issue by hosting a continuing series on the topic.

here is no doubt trees add so much to the landscaping. They shade your house and yard, add texture, and pr ovide wildlife with food and shelter. The fall, when the trees turn fr om their summer shades of gr een to flaming hues of r ed, yellow, and orange, is when we most appreciate our broad leaf trees.

According the American folklore, Jack Fr ost is r esponsible for autumn’s fall colors. In tr uth, it is not a mythical figure changing the leaves’ colors. Fall color occurs when the shorter days trigger the leaves to stop pr oducing chlorophyll — the green colored pigment in leaves that pr oduces the plant’s food.

With the absence of chlor ophyll, other pigments such as carotin and anthocyanin can be seen.

Carotin is r esponsible for the yellows and oranges. If you would like to add some trees with yellow to orange fall foliage to your landscape, consider planting sugar maple, bir ch, linden, honey locust, ash, beech, or ginko trees.

The anthocyanin is r esponsible for r ed and purple hues. The red pigment is stim-

Fall color is just one characteristic to keep in mind when you select tr ees for your yar d. Other important considerations include mature size, har diness, and r esistance to insects and diseases.

When planting a tree always remember to select a location with plenty of r oom and sun for the tr ee you have selected.

Also, try to match the right tr ee to your soil and drainage. Finally, when planting the tree follow proper tree planting methods and always give newly-planted tr ees long, slow waters for the first few years.

o, after many trials and errors, taste testing and complete flops, I have finally come up with a pancake recipe that tastes good (kid and dad appr oved) and is healthy enough I feel comfortable making it for my family.

I can tell you this; I will never buy pr e-packaged pancake mixes. It is a waste of money and have you read the ingredient label? Making homemade pancakes is so quick and easy and only r equires a few ingr edients. A batch of pancakes (one recipe) will probably cost you less than $1 to make!

Some r eaders may be scratching their heads asking “What is spelt flour, and wher e can I find it?” Spelt is a whole grain that has a nice nutty flavor, and a high protein and nutrient content. It’s texture and flavor is mor e appealing, in my opinion, than whole wheat flour . Spelt does contain gluten so is not suitable for a glutenfree diet. Spelt flour can be found in most health food stor es and maybe in the health food sections of your local gr ocer. You can also purchase the spelt grain and grind it into flour with a food mill or coffee grinder.

PERU — The Walk of Faith will celebrate its fifth anniversary this weekend and it’s an event coor dinator Christa Covell-Reyell looks forward to each year.

“When we started this, we wer e looking for something that would be both a spiritual walk and a way for the community to come together,” said Covell-Reyell.

The event, established in October 2007, began as a longer walk throughout the town of Peru, starting at St. Patrick’s Church in West Peru, and continuing on for 7.2 miles to St. Augustine’s Chur ch. However, thr ough the feedback of its participants, the length and route for the walk have been re duced, bringing out more people for the event, said Covell-Reyell.

“It was the second or third year we started polling the walkers, asking them what they liked and what the would like to see different, and it was r ecommended we have a shorter walk,” said Covell-Reyell.

The result is how the walk is org anized today, starting at the Lady of Lour des Shrine behind St. Augustine’s Chur ch on Main Street, with a r oute that pr oceeds thr ough the hamlet of Peru for 2.7 miles, circ ling back to St. Augustine’s Parish Center.

The formula has worked, said CovellReyell, as last year ’s event attracted nearly 100 walkers and raised more than $600.

“It’s branched out quite a bit since our original event,” she said.

This year’s walk — slated for this Sunday, Oct. 9 — will also include opening r emarks from Bonnie Black with the North Country Mission of Hope and a guest speaker to be

FEMA shuts down disaster recovery centers; assistance still available

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — The Federal Emer gency Management Agency (FEMA) is closing its Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) in Essex and Warren counties and has extended its Disaster Unemployment Assistance deadline, according to FEMA Public Information Officer Peter Lembessis.

The three DRCs in the area have been giving support to victims of Tropical Storm Irene, which caused widespread flooding and damage to homes, businesses and r oadways on Aug. 28.

The DRC at the Jay Community Center inAu Sable Forks will close Friday, Oct. 7. The DRC at the Lake Luzerne T own Hall, serving Warren County, shut down T uesday, Oct. 4. And the DRC at the Moriah firehouse closed Saturday, Oct. 2.

Although the DRCs are closing, Irene victims have until Oct. 31 to r egister for financial assistance. People can r egister by

calling (800) 621-3362 or going online at www .disaterassistance.gov.

As o f O ct. 2 , m ore t han 34 ,000 p eople h ave r egistered f or FEMA assistance in the wake of tropical storms Irene and Lee, according to Lembessis. Mor e than $66 million in federal aid has been approved. In Clinton County, more than 370 have registered, and mor e than $540,000 in aid has been appr oved. In Essex County, more than 520 have registered, and more than $1.497 million in aid has been approved. And in Warren County, 114 people have r egistered, and mor e than $142,000 in aid has been approved.

On Oct. 3, state and federal officials announced that the Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA) application deadline has been extended to Nov. 16. This aid is for residents who are unemployed as a direct result of the flooding caused by Tropical Storm Irene, and they may now be eligible for weekly benefit payments under the DUA program.

“The DUA program extends coverage to self-employed peo-

ple, farm workers and others who have lost employment as a direct result of the disaster,” said Andrew X. Feeney, state coordinating of ficer. “It is specifically designed to assist those who are otherwise ineligible for state unemployment benefits.”

People may be eligible to apply for DUA if: •They were injured in the disaster and ar e unable to work, whether they are an employee or self-employed.

•Their workplace was damaged or destroyed.

•Their transportation to work is not available.

•They cannot get to their jobs because they must travel through the affected area.

•They were about to begin working, but could not because of the disaster.

•They derived most of their income fr om areas affected by the hurricane and their business is down as a dir ect result of the disaster.

To apply for DUA, call the Telephone Claims Center at (888) 209-8124.

THE GREAT OUTDOORS • www.the-burgh.com - 17

One sure shot A

lthough autumn d elivers a wide range of recreational opportunities, one of the tr ue joys of the season is the opportunity to return to the field in the company of man’s best friend.

Whether hunting for upland game such as pheasant, woodcock or r uffed gr ouse in the forests and fields, or taking to the wetlands for waterfowl such as ducks of geese; time spent in the company of a fourlegged companion is always special. Hunting dogs ar e a unique br eed of animal; they live to hunt, to point and to retrieve, and they strive to please.

In fact, some anthropologists believe mankind would have never advanced beyond the stage of simple hunter -gatherers if not for domesticated dogs.

Dogs provided the unique services of her ding, guar ding and hunting, which allowed mankind to control herds of animals.

Several years ago, I had an opportunity to hunt in the company of an old friend, who owns a lar ge farm near Cobleskill, NY. Along with a wide menagerie of animals, Richar d also raises pheasants. I joined him and his thirteen year old son, for a day in the field Although I had experience with both grouse and woodcock at the time; I had spent very little time afield, hunting for pheasants. However, I reckoned that knocking down a few r ecently r eleased pheasants would be rather easy, given my background with gr ouse and woodcock. Pheasants of fer a larger, and slower moving target than either grouse or woodcock. Conveniently , they also tend to fly off , in a straight away fashion.

It was a cool morning, as we set of f with Laddie, a German Shorthair Pointer. The dog, a retired National Field Champion, was literally bouncing of f the ground with excitement. And as I recall, so was I. The dog took to the hunt like a young pup, and as he romped through the open fields and surrounding brush, the bell on his collar sounded a cheery note.

Suddenly, the bell went silent as the dog fr oze on point. W e approached the location, with Richard’s son in the center , flanked by both of us. On command, the dog flushed a pair of pheasants, which imm ediately took to the wing.

Before I could shoulder my shotgun, two shots sounded in the still morning air , and two birds fell to the gr ound. The youngster had dropped both of them, before either his father or I could even get off a shot.

“Pretty good shooting”, I muttered to myself, “Maybe I’ll let the kid take a few more shots before I get serious.” It was a good thing I kept those thoughts to myself.

For the r emainder of the morning hunt, the pattern continued. The dog would fan the fields, until the bell went silent as the dog held on point, quivering with excitement. On command, the dog would flush birds and the darned kid knocked them out of the air like clockwork. Richard and I were mere spectators and occasional cheerleaders My initial cockiness quickly diminished, and I began to wonder if I would ever manage to get a shot of f. Fortunately, I had an opportunity when a bird flushed immediately in my direction, and I took it with a single shot. Unfortunately, it was only shell I used during the en-

tire outing.

Together, we managed to harvest all but one of the released pheasants. R ichard t ook t wo, which both flanked left and his kid took the others. I was humbled, darn kid.

Later, as we sat in the cabin sipping hot chocolate, I told Richard ho w i mpressed I w as with his son’s shooting. “He was truly incredible out there!”, I exclaimed, “You know, he’s a fine shooter , and he’s very smooth. He’s certainly got a great future ahead of him.”

“Well Joe”, Richard revealed, “He’s been at it for quite a while. In fact he’s been a competitive s hooter f rom a n e arly age, and he’s been ranked on the National level since he was twelve. He won the New Jersey State Skeet Championship in 20 gauge for thr ee years in a r ow, and just lost the 12 gauge title in a shoot-of f, against a kid, who was three years older.”

My face gr ew r ed with embarrassment, as Richard continued, “W e ar e hoping he will continue with the sport. His coach claims he has the potential to make the Olympic team!”, (which he eventually did.)

It was a humbling experience, and a gre at lesson learned!

Since that time, I’ve never doubted the skill level of young shooters, nor have I failed to appreciate the pleasure of hunting

Kollin was born to par ents Josh and Jackie Camer on of Plattsbur gh and was two months premature with an undeveloped airway . This made it dif ficult for Kollin to get the air he needed and, at oneday-old, he was sent fr om Fletcher Allen Health Car e in Burlington, Vt., and to

Children’s Hospital at Boston to r eceive more specialized attention. While the Camerons were in Boston, the first steps in planning Kollin’s benefit took shape. At only one-week-old, Kollin passed away as a result of his complications. Planning for Kollin’s Benefit continued, as his family saw it as a way to tell Kollin’s story , pay tribute to a child who touched many lives in such a short time and to give back to the medical pr ofessionals that fought for Kollin’s life.

Proceeds from the benefit will help the Cameron family cover medical expenses and a donation will also be made to Children’s Hospital at Boston.

Chiefs shutout Hornets

keith@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE — The Ticonderoga Sentinels and T upper Lake Lumberjacks will meet with the Class D re gular season title on the line, as both teams come of f convincing wins coming into their Oct. 7 meeting in Ti. The Sentinels spoiled the homecoming game of the AuSable Valley Patriots by scoring a 34-0 win Sept. 30, while the Lumberjacks scored a 36-6 victory against the threetime defending Class D champs Moriah to open the month of October.

In Clintonville, the Sentinels only thr ew the ball once (one other pass attempt resulted in a penalty) r elying on a r unning game that rushed for 338 yards and a defense that tallied 12 tackles for a loss, a pair of sacks and two turnovers.

“That’s the way that we pr efer to play ,“ Sentinels head coach Bob Sutphen said. “We were pretty efficient in the first half and we established that early. Our outside guys did a gr eat job on defense and we wer e able to keep Austin House contained.”

“They did a wonderful job swarming to our key players,” Patriots head coach Heith Ford said. “They out-physical-ed us on the line defensively, and our timing was of f on the offensive side of the ball.”

The Sentinels had two long drives, one that went 10 plays in 4:13, and the second going 67 yar ds in 13 plays and taking 7:35 of f the clock to start the second half.

Ryan Borho carried the ball 12 times for 73 yards and thr ee touchdowns, while Jay Hebert carried the ball 10 times for 97 yards and Miles Austin took a handoff 11 times and tallied 132 yards and one score on a 58-yard scamper.

The pr ocess to build the catapult, also known as a trebuchet, took several weeks to design and eventually build, said Podolak.

The pr oject challenged the minds of physics and engineering students who were faced with the task of putting theory into practice.

Tobey B etthauser, p resident of the physics club, agreed. While he was proud of his team taking home the gold, he added the pr ocess of learning from trial and error for the project was rewarding in itself.

“It was definitely nice,” Betthauser said of the

team’s first place win.

“What’s great is because in class we don’t get much time to interact much other than studying for tests ... this was gr eat because we got to work with our peers to work on our applications toward the project.”

Last year , the SUNY Plattsburgh team utilized a catapult with a swinging arm, said Podolak. However, the students decided that for this year ’s cr eation, they’d utilize a vertical drop system.

“The weights are dropped straight down to harness the natural force of gravity,” explained Podolak. “As the weights fall, a mechanism turns and the pumpkin flies forwar d ... W e noticed those who had a vertical dr op harnessed mor e gravitational

Regardless of how they place, Podolak said he’s excited students have a chance to learn in an environment that takes them outside the classroom.

Bassett said the town has been lucky to have been able to control the utility costs to this point but in order to maintain town budgets it is the responsibility of the town to see where money, resources and possibly 1,000’s of gallons of water are being used unnecessarily.
