Moriah falls short at state tournament.

Kenzi Weston gets a snowmobile ride from Derrick Fleury during Ticonderoga’s annual WinterFest in February. The day featured a host of outdoor activities.

PORT HENRY — The Moriah Chamber of Commerce, making an effort to become more active in the community, will host an after-hours business mixer.

The event, which will include cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, will be at the King’s Inn in Port Henry Thursday, March 21, 6 to 7:30 p.m. The cost

is $3 a person.

“As part of a revamping of the Moriah Chamber of Commerce and our cooperation with area towns, the chamber is hosting a business mixer,” Tim Bryant, Moriah chamber president, said.

“Westport, taking the initiative, invited us to their holiday mixer last December, which was well supported by a large turnout. It is now Moriah’s turn to play host and maintain our momentum.

“At the mixer we will share a summary of our current projects and the direction we are heading,” he added. “We would like to hear from peo-

TICONDEROGA — Ethan Thompson doesn’t consider himself as a pioneer, but the 13-year-old is paving the way for students with severe allergies at Ticonderoga Central School.

“It’s no big deal,” he said.

“It’s just something I deal with.”

No big deal? Even being near a peanut can cause Ethan to go into anaphylaxis, a serious allergic reaction that can cause death. He is allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish and other foods.

In a school full of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, Ethan, literally, faces death every school day.

“It’s really hard,” Ursula Thompson, Ethan’s mother, said. “We’ve had a lot of ups and downs over the years.

Ethan has missed out on a lot.”

Ethan was diagnosed with allergies when he was 18 months old and ate a peanut

Montcalm Street group, chamber enter pact Organizations aim to improve Ticonderoga

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A pair of Ticonderoga organizations dedicated to strengthening the business community have formally joined forces.

The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce and the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership have entered into a contract, agreeing to work together with the chamber as the “coordinating” agency.

“While TMSP and the chamber have worked closely for the past several years on events and projects, the new partnership serves to strengthen the relationship and enables us to better coordinate our mutual efforts on promotions and events for the citizens, visitors and the businesses of our community,” stated John Bartlett, TMSP executive committee member.

The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership is reorganizing to better serve Ticonderoga, Bartlett said.

In addition to contracting with the chamber, the TMSP board has created an executive committee made up of its committee chairpeople. TMSP committees consist of Promotions, StreetFest, Design and the Best Fourth in the North. The Best Fourth in North committee, which had been independent for decades, joined the TMSP in 2012.

In the past there had been a sole TMSP chairperson and a board comprised of TMSP volunteers and downtown merchants. Now there is the executive committee, the board and the chamber serving as the TMSP coordinator.

“2012 was a year of transition for the Best Fourth in the North committee,” said Debbie Barber, Best Fourth chairwoman. “I became the new committee chairperson and we moved from being a town of Ticonderoga-associated committee to being a sub-committee of the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership. This change was needed for a vari-

ety of reasons to ensure that vitality of Ticonderoga’s Fourth of July tradition for the community and area visitors.”

In addition to the Best Fourth in the North the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership organizes WinterFest, StreetFest, the Street Art Project and Auction, HalloweenFest, Community Clean Up Day and works on a variety of streetscape projects and initiatives.

The TMSP also participates and is involved with other events and works closely with organizations in Ticonderoga as well as the town.

“We are thrilled to expand the partnership between the chamber and the TMSP to not only create a closer relationship, assist them with their events and projects and public relations, but to better serve the Ticonderoga area as a whole,” said Matthew Courtright, chamber executive director. “The strengthening of this partnership will assist the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce in their efforts to serve, market and promote the Ticonderoga area. It will also support economic development and growth, our other chamber partners and the communities that the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce serves.

“Expanding our partnership make sense for both organizations as we work together to strengthen and grow the Ticonderoga area,” he added. “The chamber will continue to work hard to serve our members, the business community and the Ticonderoga area as our key focus. This partnership is mutually beneficial for both organizations and will certainly allow further development.”

For more information people can contact the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce at 585-6619, chamberinfo@ticonderogany.com or visit its office at 94 Montcalm St. The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership is a not-for-profit organization established in 2007.

Events to benefit Ti’s ‘Best Fourth in the North’ Alumni hoop tourney, ‘Best Fourth Night’ March 23

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Independence Day is months away, but people will have an opportunity to support the annual Ticonderoga “Best Fourth in the North” during a pair of events Saturday, March 23.

The annual Ticonderoga Alumni Basketball Tournament will begin at noon at Ti High School. All players are asked to arrive at 11 a.m.

“Best Fourth in the North Night” will be held later that day 6 to 9 p.m. at The Pub on Montcalm Street.

Both events will benefit the Ticonderoga “Best Fourth in the North” celebration.

“Join in the festivities and help our guest bartenders raise money from the tips they receive,” Debbie Barber, Best Fourth chairwoman, said. “All proceeds will benefit the ‘Best Fourth In The North’ celebration.

“We encourage people to participate in as many fundraisers for the Fourth of July celebration as possible,” she said.

“Without the support of our area businesses and community members, the celebration we all enjoy and has become a Ticonderoga tradition couldn’t take place. The celebration costs $25 - $30,000 each year with most of that being raised by the committee.”

The names of the guest bartenders and other information on the “Best Fourth in the North” will be available on the committee’s Facebook page.

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank The Pub for allowing us to hold this and our last fundraiser ‘Ring In The New Year ’ at their business,” Barber said. “We greatly appreciate their support.”

The 2012 alumni basketball tournament raised $630 for the “Best Fourth in the North.”

“For over a decade the basketball alumni have gathered at the Ticonderoga High School to help support the ‘Best Fourth in the North’,” said Bob Dedrick, tournament organizer and a former Ti High coach. “This year is no exception.

“Alumni who have graduated in the 1980s to the most recent grads all converge at the gym to renew friendships, relive memories, get a chance to pit their skills against other graduates and help raise funds for the Fourth of July celebration,” he said.

The day will feature four games with the last game for the championship. Teams are determined by the year of graduation.

“This allows graduates to compete with players who were on the roster while in high school,” Dedrick said. “Each game is closely contested, where youth usually competes against experience.”

A three point contest elimination round will start at 11:45 a.m. with the finals held prior to the championship game.

“This event continues to be a fundraiser for the Fourth of July,” Dedrick said. “As in the past an admission fee will be

collected and it is the hope that the community will help support the Fourth of July and also salute the former players and referees, who so generously devote their time.”

The Fourth of July committee will also be selling refreshments during the event.

The “Best Fourth in the North” celebration attracts many visitors to the Ticonderoga area every year who support local businesses and the local economy, Barber said.

The 2013 celebration will take place July 1- 4 with fireworks, a parade, live music, food, vendors, rides, games and more.

“We are working on adding new vendors and food options in the park as well as expanding music within the parade,” Barber said. “We encourage businesses and organizations looking to participate in the parade to register early. Applications are available online or at the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce office. The theme for the parade this year is ‘Movie Classics.’ In addition we are looking for local bands and musicians who would like to participate in the parade.”

The “Best Fourth in the North” committee meets on the second Wednesday of each month at 5:30 p.m. at the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce office in Ticonderoga.

The committee welcomes volunteers to help with the planning, fundraising and during the celebration.

Business seminars slated in Ti, chamber to host events TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce will host two business seminars this spring in coordination with the North Country Small Business Development Center.

“Hiring & Retaining The Right Employees” will be held Tuesday, April 9, 8 to 9:30 a.m. at the chamber.

“Employee management can be one of the most challenging, but also one of the most rewarding aspects of small business ownership,” said Matthew Courtright, chamber executive director. “This workshop will touch on how to search, hire, train and motivate quality employees to help grow your business. Some topics of discussion will in-

clude: creating an effective job description, finding recruitment sources, screening and interviewing applicants, understanding the difference between attitude and skill as well as training and retaining employees.

“Turning Angry Customers Into Loyal Fans” will be held Tuesday, May 14, 8 to 9:30 a.m. at the chamber.

“Dissatisfied customers are an inevitable part of doing business,” Courtright said.

“How you respond will determine whether customers tell others how terrible your business is or rave about your unmatched customer service. This workshop will take a look at powerful steps businesses can take to diffuse angry customers, address the issues

and sustain customer loyalty.”

Both seminars will be presented by the North Country Small Business Development Center. Refreshments will be sponsored and provided by Dunkin Donuts of Ticonderoga.

The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce office is located at 94 Montcalm St. Registration is required. Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce are free and there is a fee for non-members.

Fort Fever continues: ‘Evacuation Day 1776’ March 17 TICONDEROGA — Fort Ticonderoga’s Fort Fever Series continues on Sunday, March 17, at 2 p.m. with “Evacuation Day 1776” presented by Director of Education Rich Strum.

The cost is $10 a person and will be collected at the door. It is free for members of the Friends of Fort Ticonderoga.

This program takes place in the Deborah Clarke Mars Education Center. The doors open at 1:30 p.m. with the program commencing at 2 p.m. and lasting approximately an hour.

While March 17 is widely celebrated as St. Patrick’s Day, it is officially known as Evacuation Day in Boston. On March 17, 1776, the British evacuated Boston after a monthslong siege by the Continental Army under the command of Gen. George Washington.

Evacuation Day commemorates that pivotal turning point in the early years of the Revolution.

“The presentation traces the growing confrontation between colonists and the British government through the 1760s and early 1770s, including the Stamp Act Crisis, the

Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party,” said Strum. “Even before fighting erupted in Lexington and Concord in 1775, Boston was in essence an occupied city, with British troops patrolling the streets.”

Shortly after the skirmishes at Lexington and Concord, the rebels under Gen. Artemas Ward and then Gen. George Washington surrounded the city of Boston, bottling up the British on the Boston peninsula. The siege was not broken until Washington had artillery placed on Dorchester heights—artillery that had come from Ticonderoga

through the herculean efforts of Henry Knox earlier in the winter. Finally, on March 17, 1776, the Royal Navy evacuated British troops and loyal subjects. Boston was in Patriot hands.

A final program in the Fort Fever Series, titled “Very Well Prepared for the British Army,” is scheduled for April 21 and includes a site walk with Fort Ticonderoga’s Director of Interpretation Stuart Lilie.

A chance to be heard

T

he state of New York and Gov. Andrew Cuomo could take a lesson from the Essex County Board of Supervisors regarding how to pass legislation.

On March 11, the board held a special SAFE Act Task Force Committee meeting where the new state law banning certain assault weapons and placing restrictions on magazine capacities, among other things, was discussed.

Three versions of a resolution that criticizes the state for the way it handled the passage of the law were presented, one asking for the measure to be amended and two calling for an outright repeal of the law. After discussion and debate, the committee voted to put forward a resolution to the full Board of Supervisors that will call for the repeal of the SAFE Act. That vote will take place at a special meeting called

by Board Chair Randy Douglas Monday, March 18, at 6 p.m. in the county supervisors chambers in Elizabethtown.

What Essex County has done is exactly what opponents of the law have been slamming the state for not doing, taking their time and getting feedback from their constituents on how to address the matter.

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley, who motioned for amendment of the SAFE Act, printed out the law and presented it to members of her town, asking them to check what they liked in the law and cross out what they did not. Gerald Morrow of Chesterfield, who chairs the committee, talked with residents and local sporting organizations. Douglas, who confesses that he does not own a gun, said he has learned more than he ever wanted to about them and the subject of gun violence in relation to this highly-debated law.

When North Hudson's Ronald Moore presented the board with a resolution backing the New York State Sheriff's Association and their stance on the matter, Morrow said that not only did the county need their own voice, they needed to do it the right way.

“If we pass something without taking the time to look at it and study it, then we are no better than the state legislature who did exactly that with this law,” Morrow said.

Residents of Essex County will now get their chance to be heard on the subject during a hearing at 6 p.m. next Monday at the board of supervisor ’s chambers in Elizabethtown. This is your chance to have your opinion added to the more than 40 counties that have already passed meas-

ures calling for the repeal of the SAFE Act. Essex County may be one of the last to act, but to criticize that is hypocritical if you also criticize those at the state who made the rush to judgement to pass the act in the first place. It would be safe to say that the first resolutions to repeal the law may have been knee-jerk reactions to a knee-jerk reaction, and two wrongs do not make a right.

In the same token, it would be hypocritical if you have been one crying for a voice in this matter and then neglect to take advantage of the opportunity the board of supervisors is affording. We encourage all sides to make their voices known, while sticking to our belief that the SAFE Act was indeed a rush to judgement that was created more for potential political gain than for the interest of public safety. As Sheriff Richard Cutting said, “the SAFE Act would not have prevented Sandy Hook, Columbine or any of these other massacres.”

We commend the board of supervisors for the approach they have taken to this topic. With that, let us offer a suggestion.

The county has a budget committee that is already looking to make cuts to help save county taxpayers in the 2014 budget. It’s good to see the board starting early focusing on the budget and the anticipated shortfall in the coming year, but we suggest that the board combines that with more opportunities for the public to comment on the process.

Supervisors should consider holding more meetings in the evening — like they plan to do with the SAFE Act hearing — when more residents are available to attend. There is already a buzz in the county concerning the potential sale of the county fairgrounds in Westport, and it would be good to have a public hearing on the matter, if it gets to that point, before any decision is made.

Then it will be up to the residents to take advantage of the chance to have their voice heard because, as the SAFE Act has proven, silence is not always golden.

Leadership starts at the top

I

’m not a CPA, accountant or lawyer. I have no degree in political science or economics. I’m a high school grad with a couple years of college. I have no insider information on the inner workings of the federal government, but I’ve been challenged by several readers to be more specific in my column regarding sequestration and offer possible suggestions on how we go about easing the pain of reducing Uncle Sam’s spending by $85 billion.

We all know there isn’t one single dollar the government spends that someone doesn’t think is critically important. But to set the stage for what we are up against, I urge you go watch this simple dramatization of our nation’s current $16 trillion+ debt at demonocracy.info. We must reduce our spending.

Let me start by stating the obvious. I don’t know of one executive administrator who is responsible for managing anything who doesn’t want to control the checkbook and have some say in income generation. I can only come to one conclusion as to why the president isn’t coming forth with a plan. He wants nothing to do with leading the nation. His goal seems to be cuts must hurt, so make the cuts felt and then blame others for the pain. He also seems reluctant to put forth his own cost-saving solutions therefore avoiding any personal blame. This is the exact opposite of what a president should do. Harry Truman said it best: “The buck stops here.”

With the limited information available to me, here are my recommendations if I were in the Oval Office. As a sign of good faith and leadership, we start at the White House. The best estimates I can find tell me it costs about $1.7 billion to run the White House. I’d immediately direct the WH staff, including the presidency, to trim 10 percent from all salaries associated with WH personnel, curtail all extraneous travel, including Air Force One and cut our operational spending by the same amount. I urge Congress to do the same 10 percent cut, and together we can lead the nation to a $1 billion savings. Leadership starts with the leaders.

Next I’d turn to the nearly three million federal employees. We can either cut positions or we can all agree to take a 5 percent across-the-board pay deduction.

It will save the American public about

$10 billion, and everyone gets to keep their jobs. I’m suggesting another $1 billion saved from Dan Alexander frugal efThoughts from forts by Behind the Pressline cutting things like conference costs to office supplies and travel.

In 2010, the Simpson Bowles National Commission to reform government brought forth a plan that was not acted upon. I would instruct the heads of our 22 civilian and military departments to look at those recommendations and surgically trim their expenditure, not to include any staff reductions, but to trim 2 percent from other expenses, which should save about $48 billion.

Over the years, we’ve repeatedly piled programs on top of pre-existing ones. We should begin today to identify these programs with an estimated goal of cutting $25 billion through the elimination of and merging of certain agencies.

We must put Social Security and Medicare at the top of our lists to ensure their sustainability while reducing costs.

Last year, more than two dozen Fortune 500 companies paid zero federal income tax, short changing the country by $20 billion. We must put an end to corporate welfare and preferential tax deals.

Every American over age 18 must have a financial stake in our country, and I would propose a minimum citizen tax of $250 or about $4.80 a week. For each person over 18 years of age, if you’ve paid nothing into the system, the government will deduct $250 from your refund (benefit) check. That will raise $28 billion.

With all Americans citizens and corporations now having a vested interest in our country, we can create a new culture to rein in costs and once again create a promising opportunity to the future generations.

Fort Ti to host annual seminar; War College May 17-19 TICONDEROGA — Registration is now open for Fort Ticonderoga’s 18th annual War College of the Seven Years’ War May 17-19, 2013.

The seminar focuses on the French & Indian War in North America (1754-1763), bringing together a panel of historians from

around the country. The War College takes place in the Deborah Clarke Mars Education Center. It is open to the public. Pre-registration is required.

“Begun in 1996, the War College of the Seven Years’ War has become one of the premier seminars on the French & Indian War in

Heritage Museum plans new exhibit Dinner to aid project March 19

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A new exhibit highlighting the significance of the LaChute River is planned at the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum this year.

“The Impact of the River” will provide a glimpse at the businesses that grew and flourished along the river that winds through downtown Ti. “The exhibit will tell the story of the 100year period that was essentially the golden age of Ticonderoga when thriving lumber camps spawned a world of merchants and falling water powered mills from grist to graphite,” said June Curtis, museum spokeswoman.

To help fund the exhibit there will be a benefit dinner Tuesday, March 19, 4:30-8 p.m. at Eddie’s Restaurant. The menu will include spaghetti, meatballs, salad, bread, coffee and dessert tickets. Cost is $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 5-12. For information call Sylvia Boyce at 585-7735.

The museum is also seeking grant funding for the project.

“The plan is to re-purpose the blue room, creating an exhibit with a theme that more closely aligns to the mission of celebrating the industrial history of Ticonderoga,” Curtis explained. “Denise Huestis, author, artist and trustee, has created 38 professionallymastered scale models of the area’s early industries. Eight of these replicas are incorporated into permanent exhibits representing

the three largest industries in the town’s early history — papermaking, waterpower and graphite mining.”

Those models will be the centerpiece of the new exhibit.

“I can envision the remaining models in a time-line together with a storyline arranged along the four walls,” Huestis said. “Placing old photographs of the factories and related artifacts would surely add to the interest.”

The museum has applied for a Museumwise GETSET! grant for professional and technical support to design this exhibit.

“We seek a skilled professional partner who can work with our vision, the models and the space to interpret our dream into the exhibit’s reality,” Curtis said.

The museum is located in downtown Ticonderoga on the edge of Bicentennial Park. Commonly called the “1888 Building” the museum is housed in the only remaining structure of the old Ticonderoga Pulp and Paper mill that once sprawled across most of the lower section of the town.

Today the museum hosts an Adirondack gift shop and displays exhibits on the 200year history of industries that built the town.

It is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through Columbus Day. The 1888 Building is an exhibit in itself. It was once headquarters to the International Paper Co. mill that operated along the adjacent LaChute River. When IP moved its mill a few miles north of the hamlet, the building was given to the town. The museum board leases the building.

The museum is handicapped accessible.

For more information call 585-2696.

the United States. It features a mix of new and established scholars in an informal setting for a weekend of presentations related to the military, social, and cultural history of the French & Indian War,” said Beth Hill, Fort Ticonderoga president and CEO. Speakers will include: Richard Berleth, author, on the campaign at Fort Stanwix in 1758; Brady J. Crytzer, author, on the role of Fort Pitt; Jonathan Dull, Yale University, on the European battles of Leuthen and Kloster Kamp and their impact on the war in America; Jon Parmenter, Cornell University, on the role of Native allies on both sides during the siege of Fort Niagara in 1759; Tim Todish and Todd Harburn, authors, on the Pontiac Indian Uprising of 1763-64; and Steven Wapen, independent historian, on an incident during the siege of Fort Oswego in 1756.

Fort Ticonderoga’s Curator of Collections, Chris Fox, will give a presentation “By the wound above said I can’t write my name: Personal Stories from the Battle of Carillon, July 8, 1758.” In the presentation, Fox will use petitions filed by several provincial soldiers after their involvement in the Battle of

Carillon to examine how the experience of battle affected these men physically and how their service at Ticonderoga had a lasting impact on them and the lives of their families.

In addition, Fort Ticonderoga’s Interpretation Department will give two presentations. Stuart Lilie, director of interpretation, in “From Languedoc to Carillon, 1755,” will describe the research and construction techniques used to recreate the uniforms and equipment of the French regular soldiers fighting on the North American frontier. In “Split Peas, Salt Pork, and the North Woods,” Cameron Green, military programs supervisor, will discuss the ration, cookware, and camp kitchen details of French soldiers in the field.

Registration for the War College is now open at $145 ($120 for those registering by March 15). Additional discounts available for members of the Friends of Fort Ticonderoga. Registration forms can be downloaded from the fort’s website at www.fortticonderoga.org. A printed copy is also available upon request by contacting the fort at 585-2821.

butter and jelly sandwich. The reaction was immediate and serious.

“We knew right away,” Ursula recalled.

Since that day the family has taken every step possible to avoid peanuts and other foods that pose a risk to Ethan. That’s not as simple as it sounds.

Peanut oil is used in a wide variety of products.

“We don’t eat any manufactured or processed foods,” Ursula said.

“Ethan’s so sensitive that he’s even had reactions from cross contact.”

Cross contact?

“If one of Ethan’s classmates eats peanut butter and uses a pencil, then Ethan later picks up that same pencil he’ll have a reaction,” Ursula said.

“He even has reactions to airborne peanuts,” she said. “We went to a Yankee (baseball) game and lasted about 10 minutes. Some people began to shuck peanuts near us and Ethan had a reaction. His eyes were swollen shut and he was covered with a rash head to toe before we got out of the stadium.”

Even family vacations are a challenge. Before flying, where peanuts are a common snack, the family must notify the airline of Ethan’s allergies so the plane can be cleaned and alternative snacks offered.

Other than the allergies, Ethan is a typical seventh grade student. He plays football, basketball and baseball. He likes video games and spending time with friends.

But to account for his allergies, accommodations must be made.

Ticonderoga Central School has developed a safety plan specifically for Ethan. The document states Ethan must have his own desk and chair cleaned before his arrival; that he have his own computer keyboard and mouse; he has his own art supplies; he has a specific allergy-free table in the school cafeteria; classmates and their parents must be alerted to Ethan’s condition; only allergen-free snacks are allowed in his classrooms; any equipment Ethan uses must be thoroughly cleaned before he arrives; teachers must be educated about Ethan’s allergies and how to respond in the event of a reaction; and more.

A separate policy was developed by Bob Sutphen, the school’s athletic director, when Ethan began playing sports this year. That policy bans food from all team settings — the locker room, bus and gym, each player must clean their hands before entering a team bus, and more.

“The school district has done a wonderful job,” Ursula said. “Mr. Sutphen has been a great advocate for Ethan. He makes sure Ethan is safe on bus trips. All the teachers and administrators have been wonderful.”

Joanne Bartlett, Ticonderoga Middle-Elementary School nurse, meets with Ethan’s teachers on a regular basis to make certain all safety protocols are in place.

“She does so much for Ethan,” Ursula said of Bartlett. “She makes certain school is a safe environment for Ethan.”

John McDonald, Ti school superintendent, said school officials appreciate the efforts of Ethan’s parents, Ursula and Carl.

“I give a lot of credit to Ursula and Carl,” McDonald said. “They’ve advocated for their son and other students and brought the dangers to our attention. I don’t know that we realized how severe the situation could be until we spoke to Ursula and Carl.

“They worked with us to develop a comprehensive policy,” he added.

“We realized the school doesn’t have to be peanut free, but it needs to be peanut safe.

“I put myself in their shoes,” McDonald said of the Thompsons. “They send their son to school every day expecting him to be safe. All parents should be able to do that.”

That’s difficult for Ethan’s parents.

“I fear for Ethan’s life every day,” Ursula said. “Food is not a friend. All it takes is one mistake.”

Ethan’s allergies have also affected his social life. Before Ethan can visit a friend, those parents must be educated about the dangers he faces.

“It’s only been the last couple of years that we’ve allowed Ethan to visit friends. He’s missed a lot of birthday parties,” Ursula said. “We always have to call the parents and ask them to wipe down their counters, use paper plates, things like that. They need to know how to use the Epi-pen.”

An Epi-pen is an epinephrine autoinjector, a medical device used to deliver epinephrine to avoid or treat the onset of anaphylactic shock.

“We’ve been very blessed,” she added. “His classmates and their par-

Ethan Thompson has severe allergies. Even being near a peanut can cause the Ticonderoga student to go into anaphylaxis, a serious allergic reaction that can cause death.

He is allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish and other foods. ents have been wonderful, very understanding. His friends know Ethan’s condition and they know not to eat things like candy bars with nuts near him.”

Ethan said his friends understand.

“They don’t really care,” he said. “It’s no big deal to them.”

Allergies, especially peanut allergies, seem to be increasing in the United States. There are 15 million people with food allergies in the U.S., according to the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network. The prevalence of peanut allergy among children tripled between 1997 and 2008.

McDonald said while Ethan is the first Ti student with severe allergies, there are several more in the elementary school. The school’s experience with Ethan has allowed the district to adjust and prepare for the other students.

“We never dealt with this 5-10 years ago,” McDonald said, “but food allergies seem to be more common. It’s important we do all we can to make our students safe.”

Ethan’s mother hopes his story will help raise awareness and help other families.

“It really means so much to me to get Ethan’s story out, to educate our communities, to advocate for these children and to acknowledge the severity of food allergies,” Ursula said. “Ethan has and will continue to face many obstacles. Everyday I'm amazed by his strength and courage. He is my hero.”

Saint Patrick was not a native of Ireland. He was born either in Scotland, Wales or France around the year 385. The legend tells us that when he was about sixteen years old he was kidnapped

by Irish pirates. After six years of slavery he was taken back to his homeland where he no longer felt he belonged. Returning to Ireland he entered the Catholic Church, became an evangelist and founded his own bishopric at Armagh.

Irishman of the Year Roast & Dinner $10.00

Among the many legends and stories surrounding the festival of Saint Patrick, patron saint of Ireland and of engineers, is the shamrock, a three-leaved clover, the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and those malicious and magical little characters called leprechauns. Rich in traditions dating back almost 1,550 years, this festival highlights the death of Saint Patrick on March 17 in the year 461 A.D.

Another symbol of Saint Patrick, the leprechaun, is a mystical race of magical elves, malicious and cunning who possess many treasures. Traditionally dressed in green, sporting beards and white or red hair, they are miserly, smoke pipes and have a great fondness for whisky and beer! Catching a leprechaun could give you the opportunity of being granted three wishes and perhaps even discovering the hiding place for his pot of gold, often found at the end of a rainbow.

Car chase ends in police shooting man

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com NORTH HUDSON — Two New York State Police officers were involved in a high speed chase that ended with the suspect being shot and killed in North Hudson March 5.

Preliminary findings released by state police on March 6 revealed that Richard Aubin, 28, of Au Sable Forks was killed after trying to gain possession a trooper’s weapon, according to Bureau of Criminal Investigation Capt. Robert LaFountain.

Aubin was first spotted traveling southbound on Interstate 87 at around 5:07 p.m. by police near the town of Schroon.

Police allege he was speeding.

“He was initially clocked going 95 mph,” LaFountain said.

Police chased the suspect southbound on the interstate until he exited south of Schroon, then traveled north on Route 9.

Police used spike strips just north of the I-87

exit 29 intersection with Route 9 to slow down the suspect’s vehicle. When the vehicle stopped the suspect fled about 75 feet into the woods, police said.

The two officers followed Aubin and engaged him. LaFountain said that physical force and pepper spray were initially used to try and subdue the man, neither proving effective.

“The suspect violently resisted arrest,” LaFountain said. “During the exchange, the suspect grabbed for a sidearm, trying to gain possession from the officer. The second officer then fired several rounds at the suspect, who expired at the scene.”

Police identified the troopers involved as Trooper Leston W. Sheeley and Trooper Marcia L. Pooler.

Sheeley discharged his division-issued Glock .45 G.A.P. sidearm, striking and killing the suspect at the scene, when Aubsin attempted take Pooler’s division-issued sidearm.

The pursuit lasted roughly 25 minutes.

LaFountain said that the officers were taken

to Glens Falls Hospital for treatment of injuries and released.

The suspect’s body was examined by Essex County Coroner Walter “Smitty” Marvin and released for autopsy.

LaFountain and Zone Commander John Tibbitts said the officers would be able to resume normal duties when ready.

“If the troopers are capable of returning to duty, they will,” Tibbitts said.

“There are a number of internal procedures and safety protocols to make sure that officers are fit to return to duty,” LaFountain said.

Tibbitts said that the investigation into the incident is still in the preliminary stages.

“There’s 110 steps in an investigation like this and we are only on step 10,” Tibbitts said.

LaFountain said that Aubin had an “extensive, violent criminal history,” including an arrest for robbery and conviction for second-degree assault.

LaFountain added that the officers were trained to use their weapons only as a last re-

RICHARD J. AUBIN sort.

“We try to use all other means to subdue a suspect,” he said. “These things tend to escalate very quickly sometimes, but it is always the subject’s actions that determine how we respond.”

The troopers were assisted in the incident by Department of Environmental Conservation Police, Essex County Sheriff’s deputies, Moriah Police Department and North Hudson Fire Police, who handled traffic control in the area of the incident.

Schroon, North Hudson residents witness high-speed chase NORTH HUDSON — Tom Tyler was watching an episode of “Cops” in his home along State Route 9 in the town of North Hudson around 5:40 p.m. Tuesday, March 5.

Tyler said that the area of road he lives next to is “probably the only good passing stretch along this route for miles,” so it does not

high-speed chase along the Northway until exiting near Pottersville.

The chase then continued northbound on State Route 9, going through Pottersville and Schroon Lake.

“I was on the Northway when the chase first started and saw the cars go by,” said Muryle Rice, who lives A high-speed car chase through Potabove Pitkin’s Restaurant, tersville, Schroon and North Hudson where she works. “I didn’t ended when state police shot and think much of it at that time, killed Howard J. “Joey” Aubin in North but by the time I got home, Hudson. they were coming right by the restaurant. They were hauling.”

Pitkin’s is located in the heart of Schroon Lake, along a very narrow stretch of road often lined with parked cars.

Luckily, Rice said, no one was in the way.

“It happened to be the perfect time, I guess,” she said. “No one was driving along the road at the time and no one was walking across the street.”

Up the road at the Mt. Severance Country Store, Tyler Sabia was at the counter when he noticed a black truck, later identified as Aubin’s, “flying by.”

“It was really slow in the store,” Sabia said. “The truck was right on the tail of another car that pulled in here to get away from him.

Then there were about six police cars that followed. They all were flying.”

“He had to be going about 100,” Jackie Haina said. “There were two troopers who were right on top of him, and then the other cars came behind after.”

surprise him when cars go zooming by his house.

However, this night the car going by his house was going really fast and being followed by a number of police cars.

“You could hear the sirens coming down the hill toward the house,” Tyler said. “They had to be going at least 80 (mph). It may have been more. All I know is that it was well above the speed limit.”

At the front of the pursuit was Richard J. “Joey” Aubin, 28, who was trying to elude police. Minutes later, he would be dead, shot

by New York State Trooper Leston W. Sheeley as he tried to take possession of the firearm of fellow Trooper Marcia L. Pooler after abandoning his car and fleeing into the woods.

As the cars passed by his house, there was a bystander vehicle that was forced to the side of the road.

“I came out, and the person had just got out of the car,” Tyler said. “I asked if they were OK, and they said that they were.”

As Tyler came out of the house, he heard a loud bang, which he believes now was Aubin’s vehicle hitting the spike strip that was deployed by troopers. A few minutes later, Tyler heard two more loud bangs, which he said sounded like gunshots.

“We had the scanner on at the time and heard that the suspect was down,” Tyler said.

While the chase ended in North Hudson, it started southbound on Interstate 87, as officers clocked Aubin going 95 mph and attempted to pull him over.

Instead, Aubin increased speed and led troopers on a

keith@denpubs.com WESTPORT — More than one year ago, Champlain Area Trails started a writing contest that it hoped would be an asset to tourism.

On Jan. 24, the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism recognized the efforts of CATS and the writing contest with one of its three annual Destination Awards, the Tourism Marketing Award.

“It’s a real boost for us,” CATS Director Chris Maron said about receiving the award. “We wanted to keep in touch with the other tourism groups in the region and it’s exciting to see that other people have noticed and that it has had a positive effect. It’s also an honor to all the people who have been here to support us.”

In awarding CATS with a Destination Award, ROOST said that the organization that was founded in 2009 has had a positive impact in vacation planning.

Grapplers to assist ailing child, soldiers Crown Point show March 30

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — There will be plenty of villains and heroes to cheer for when a benefit wrestling show comes to Crown Point.

Performance Arts Connection, a Moriahbased company, will present a night of mayhem at the Crown Point fire house Saturday, March 30, at 6 p.m.

There will be no admission fee, although donations will be accepted for Lydia McLaughlin, a Crown Point child suffering from Leukemia, and for Soldiers Fighting Overseas, an organization that sends care packages to U.S. military personnel serving aboard.

Since the show will be the night before Easter, the Easter Bunny will make an appearance.

“The Easter Bunny will be our special guest for the kids,” said Justin Gaddor, one of the event organizers.

The main event in Crown Point will be a “Triple Threat Match” between World Champion Supernova, Crusher Bigelow and

Berracuda. Supernova is portrayed by Cutting, Crusher Bigelow by Bill Welch and Berracuda

by Mike Gaddor.

Also wrestling will be Jacked Vegas, aka Matt Gaddor; Scrap Iron, played by Justin Gaddor; Justin Destructible, portrayed by Andrew Breeyear; Senior Grande, played by Tyler Simpson; Bob Wire, aka Bob Carr; Bonecollector, portrayed by Dan Gibbs; Suave, played by Jeff Clarke; and Matt Cross, played by Ethan Roberts.

Announcing the show will be Wyatt Jackson, played by Tom Haskell.

Performance Arts Connection is patterned after television’s pro wrestling.

“We’ve been doing it for the last 10 years,” explained Mike Gaddor. “We were all in drama club in high school and love acting — and we love pro wrestling. It’s just a lot of fun.”

While the group has been “wrestling” for a decade, it made its public debut in October 2010 at a cystic fibrosis benefit held at the Grover Hills Deli. A ring was set up in the parking lot and more than 100 people turned out for the free show. More than $700 was donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

County poised to take stance on SAFE Act

that are now illegal in the state or they are protesting coming to the state or whatever," Cutting said. "It is a tremendous industry in New York state and without some consideration and some amendment to this law, there will be a significant impact on the state and revenue."

Along with these issues, several also spoke about the speed at which the law was passed.

"All of our states and the federal government has a process that allows all of us to say that we have a part in this. This is a law that we did not have a part in," Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington said. "There are very few examples where a government has to say we did not have a law yesterday and we need it today. We need to have our leaders own up to the fact that they acted way too fast and did not own up to the whole picture."

ELIZABETHTOWN — The Essex County Board of Supervisors will meet Monday, March 18 to voice their opinion on the SAFE Act. Members of a special SAFE Act task force voted Monday, March 11, to seek a resolution from the full board asking the state to repeal the controversial gun laws which started taking effect Jan. 15.

With the vote, board chairman Randy Douglas called for a special board meeting to take place Monday, March 18, at 6 p.m. at the county chambers. The board will decide on the resolution at this meeting.

"We have had a lot of emails, phone calls and visits from people since this committee was formed," Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow, task “Your Local Ice Fishing Supplies force chair, said.

Moriah falls in state tourney Mountainside splits games

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com POTSDAM — The Moriah Vikings held a lead from early in the second quarter to the middle of the fourth quarter in a game that turned into an edge-of-your seat thriller during the opening round of the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Class D boys basketball tournament March 5.

Unfortunately for the Vikings, they were on the short end to the Madrid-Waddington Yellow Jackets, 49-46.

The Vikings and Jackets exchanged baskets during most of the fourth quarter with both teams exchanging the lead late.

The Vikings took a 46-45 lead when Derek Brassard connected on his second three of the half with less than two minutes remaining. Brassard finished with a game-high 16 points.

The Vikings then got possession of the ball back in the final minute, but a pass was intercepted by Greg Thompson, who raced down the court, barely beating Jessup Calkins to the rim and extending over his hand to give the Jackets a 4746 lead with 29.4 seconds left.

Maurice Rease then picked up a loose ball and was fouled with 10.9 seconds left. Rease stepped to the line and sank both ends of a one-and-one for a three point lead.

On the inbounds, Calkins got the ball up the court and found Brassard for a game-tying three point attempt. The shot was long and rebounded by Tyler Pratt, who dribbled out to the three point line and faked a shot, getting his defender in the air. Pratt then attempted the three, but a great athletic play by the defender, Colin O’Bryan, led to a blocked shot to end the game.

The Vikings trailed 11-9 after the first quarter, but started the second eight minutes on a 9-0 run, helping them to a 2216 halftime lead. The lead could have been eight, but a foul on the Jackets Richard Wright at the buzzer led to Wright hit-

ting two-of-three free throws to cut into the lead.

“We knew that they were going to be a tough team,” Moriah Coach Brian Cross said. “We knew this was going to be a game like Schroon Lake and it would come right down to the end. This time, we were on the wrong end of the score.”

Adam Jaquish added 12 points for the Vikings, while Ryan Shpur scored eight, Pratt six on a pair of three-pointers, and Calkins added three points.

“Our goal was to win the sectional title and I am proud of what our team has accomplished this year,” Cross said.

Hudson Valley Homeschoolers 54, Mountainside 38 The Hudson Valley Homeschoolers Rocks exploded out of the gate and survived scrappy full-court defense by the Mountainside Christian Academy Vikings to take the victory, 54-38, in boys basketball action Feb. 28.

They were led in scoring by Caleb Trouwborst with 12, followed by Matt Landry with 11.

In this final game of the season, the Vikings were paced

by Brandon Mieras with 17, followed by senior classman, John Andryuk, who scored 11.

Girl's Basketball Mountainside 40, Hudson Valley Homeschoolers 28 For their final game of this school year, Mountainside Christian Academy’s Lady Vikings won a 40-28 victory over the Hudson Valley Homeschoolers in girls' basketball action Feb. 28.

Ti hurdler eighth in national championship meet Hebert caps championship season

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Jay Hebert of Ticonderoga finished eighth in the 60-meter hurdles at the New Balance Indoor Track & Field National Championships March 10 in New York City.

The Ticonderoga High School junior was clocked in 8.08 seconds. Freddie Crittenden of Utica, Mich., won the race in 7.72 seconds with Marlon Humphrey of Hoover, Ala., second in 7.76.

Crittenden and Humphrey, both seniors, are considered two of the top high school athletes in the nation. Crittenden is the country’s top sprinter/hurdler, while Humphrey is rated as the top defensive back in the nation and will play football at the University of Alabama in the fall.

Hebert advanced to the championship race by taking second place in his preliminary heat and seventh place in the semifinals.

The Ticonderoga runner came into the national championship event at a disadvantage. The national championship hurdles are 60 meters, like most of the indoor races in the country. Hebert raced in New York, where the race is 55 meters.

The Ticonderoga High School hurdler won a pair of state titles at the New York State Public High School Athletic Association indoor track championships March 2.

Hebert was clocked in 7.31 seconds in the state championship race (55 meters) at Cornell University, setting a new personal and Section VII record. In fact, he broke his own

“We had a great turn out considering the Hague Bay was open water,” said Steve Ramant of the Hague Fish & Game Club. “We’ll be making some changes to next year ’s contest that will be fisherman friendly, like a mid-lake weigh in station and another that we’re still working on the final details.

The win gave Hebert both the NYSPHAA and Federation championships. The NYSPHAA includes all the state’s public schools while the Federation includes both public and private schools.

The hurdles is normally decided by hundredths of a second. A bad start, clipping a hurdle, mistiming the finishing lean can all be fatal to a hurdler, which makes Hebert’s feats all the more amazing.

Wild-land fire adventures Ancient anglers T

he recent thaw has raised the expectations of many local anglers for another early ice out, as any of the region’s lakes and ponds were free and clear of ice for the opening day of trout season on April 1st.

On several smaller pond in the area, I’ve already observed the telltale spider webbing that usually occurs as the ice begins breaking up.

And on larger waters, the areas around the inlets and outlets the open water has been growing larger every day.

I've already begun sorting through my gear, checking the hook points and respooling the lines.

I've also been polishing my Wabblers, Christmas Trees as well as the Sutton and Hinkley spoons. I use fine emery cloth and steel wool for this duty, and I seal the deal with a light spray of clear nail polish, that is mixed with a light solvent.

In the early season, I believe the fish are attracted to more flash and sparkle, than they are later in the season.

There is no doubt the fishing bug has already bit already. I've already been scouring the old maps, and searching through old journals in anticipation.

And I noticed while passing through Tupper Lake last week, the Bog River Falls inlet was already opened up for nearly a half mile down the lake, and there was at least one ice shanty in precarious position.

As per NYSDEC regulations, all ice shanties must be removed from the lakes and ponds by March 15. According to the Department of Environmental Conservation, owners who fail to remove structures by that date can be ticketed and fined $100. That’s not really a very pleasant way to end the hardwater season.

Old anglers never die, they just loose their tackle There is a popular saying that, “old anglers never die, they just smell that way.” While that may be true in some cases, the remains of fishermen that were recent discovered off the coast of California, raised more than a sniff.

In fact, when a team of archeologists from the University of Oregon began poking around in the caves, cliffs and other likely areas of human settlement, what they discovered wasn't just old, it was ancient.

Their discovery did not include any old rusty hooks, or rotted wooden ships as they searched the islands of Santa

Rosa and San Miguel, which are part of the Channel Islands off the coast of California .

What they did find were more than four dozen midden mounds, which in an archeologist’s vernacular translates to a big pile of garbage. But as trash heaps go, this one was different. There was no plastic or tin foil. The trash they found was dated from between 10,000 and 12,000 years ago, and it wasn't all they found.

They also discovered chipped stone tools and animal bones which may be linked to the lifestyles of some of the earliest settlers in North America. Based on the evidence, the scientists now believe there may have been two distinct cultures that lived in North America at the time. One of which, the well known Clovis culture lived inland and hunted mammoths and other mammals.

For many years, archeologists considered a ‘clovis spearpoint’, which was discovered in the 1920’s near Clovis, New Mexico to be a remnant of the oldest culture in North America.

The Clovis culture was recognized for their distinct stone tools and fluted arrowheads, as well as for creating ivory and seashell ornaments. The fact they had shells gives rise to a theory they traded with coastal cultures.

However, some scientists believe the ancient cultures may have actually wintered on the islands where there was plenty of food, from both the ocean and the land.

Scientists scouring the island also found the remains of overwintering birds including Canada geese, snow geese, albatross and cormorants. But what astonished the scientists were finely crafted tools, including fishhooks and barbed spearpoints, which were surely used for fishing.

“The projectiles blew us away with finely knapped flintknapped points" claimed one team member ,”Such tools have only been found at more recent sites,” The barbed points were markedly different from those previously found at Clovis sites, which tend to be simple, fluted points. This discovery hints at the coexistence of two separate groups of people in North America at the time.

The discovery may provide evidence that there were actually two native cultures in North America at the time, one of which may have been a seafaring nation that arrived in North America via the oceans, and the other arriving via a land bridge that some scientists believe connected North America to Siberia.

And while it is still far too soon to know for sure, the fact that there were seafaring anglers plying the waters and casting lines nearly 12,000 to 13,000 years ago should give hope to most Adirondack anglers, who may only have to wait a few weeks to get back on the waters.

I often wonder what the archeologists will uncover when they discover the 'midden mounds' surrounding the leantos of the Adirondacks. I'm always amazed to find an old Utica Club or Schlitz beer bottle under a leanto floor, and I can only guess how many similar bottles are buried in the nearby lake bottoms.

re you are getting bored with your life? Do you like the outdoors and hard physical activity? Does the smell of a campfire get your juices flowing? If you answered yes to all of the above, I have a career opportunity for you.

Wildfires have always been a part of the natural world.

Prairie fires renewed the grassland ecology, forest fires

By Rich Redman in the west kept the woods thinned and park-like. Many of the fire dependent species such as the giant sequoia’s kept reproducing due to the serotinous cones opening up and dropping out their seeds due to the heat of the fires. Native Americans used fire to create habitat for hunting wildlife.

Due to extensive logging, coal fired locomotives and a dry summer period, wildfires spread throughout the nation in 1910. As a result, with disregard for the natural ecology of fire, and of course political overreaction, a policy of extinguishing forest fires was implemented, and the Forest Fire Service was created.

Over time, the effect of the policy was the buildup of fuels in many western forests. Fuels of another sort also built up, housing was spreading out from cities and deep into the western forests. Combined, we now have what is known as the wild-land/urban interface.

If you’ve ever watched the news reporting extensive forest fires, saw the flames and fire whorls ripping into the air like tornados and said to yourself, “man, I would like to be there,” then training for a wild-land firefighter is for you.

The Department of Environmental Conservation has a training program to get you started in this intense career. You will need to take the S-130 and S-190 courses and pass what is called a Work Capacity Test (WCP). This is a physical endurance test which requires you to carry a 45 pound pack for 3 miles in less than 45 minutes.

The S-130 Firefighter Training course covers safety, tools, fire suppression, fire shelters, and the watch out situations, a firefighter needs to know and keep in mind at all times.

The S-190 course, Wild-land Fire Behavior, covers weather, fuels, and topography and a fires reaction to these influences.

Once you’ve completed these basics, including the arduous level pack test, you can move up to other classes offered at the DEC training center on Long Island. Advanced courses are in portable pump operations, wildfire chainsaw use, (S-212) engine operations etc. After completing the classes you can be placed on a list of eligible firefighters available for out-of-state fire duty. A tour of duty is 16 days straight, one day on each end for travel and 14 straight days of ground pounding grunt fire line work clearing fire lines, moving brush, and cutting trees, along with fire suppression.

The Albany Pine Bush also offers training and yearly refresher classes to keep you certified as a wild-land firefighter. Once you become certified, you are eligible to be a volunteer at the Pine Bush for wildlife habitat restoration work, where they have prescribed fires for vegetation control.

They plant warm season grasses and lupines on burned off sites for grassland birds and the karner blue butterflies.

If working on a fire line doing fire suppression activities gets you going, and you need a little wild-land fire adventure, call the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation or the Albany Pine Bush for training information, and refresher dates. The phone numbers are, NYS-DEC -4028839 and the Albany Pine Bush -456-0655.

Conversations

Essex County to vote on SAFE Act The Essex County Board of Supervisors Safe Act subcommittee met Monday, March 11 to review the controversial gun act. The committee composed of Chairman Gerald Morrow, Tom Scozzafava, Margaret Bartley and Ron Moore met with other supervisors sitting in to discuss resolutions to repeal or to amend the Safe Act. All members agreed that there are parts of the bill they agree with and sections that need to be taken out. Margaret Bartley’s resolution was in favor of amending the law, while both resolutions put forth

by Morrow and Moore were in favor of outright repealing the law based on the Constitutionality and infringement of 2nd Amendment rights. All of the supervisors and any members of the public were invited to speak, Mr. Morrow stating “we want an open forum where the people decide, no closed door policy making”. The meeting was very open and the crowed thanked the supervisors for the transparency.

The final resolution will go before the full Board of Supervisors at a special meeting March 18 at 6 pm to allow a broader participation in the process. Board Chairman Randy Douglas was thanked by the supervisors for setting up this important meeting.

Last spring, a vast majority of the local lakes and ponds were devoid of ice by the April 1 trout season opener. Many anglers are hoping for a similar early start this spring.
