Approval of State Ed Dept needed

By Fred Herbst

Folksinger plans a stop in Ticonderoga.

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Central School District is asking the state education department for permission to establish an alternative high school program.

The program, which would be held away from Ti High School, would be for students struggling to meet new state graduation requirements.

“We have kids who have had a hard time adjusting to the new state requirements,” said John McDonald, Ticonderoga school superintendent. “They’re getting frustrated and are having difficulties. It’s affecting our drop out rate.”

Ticonderoga’s graduation rate was 86 percent in 2011.

That’s up from 82 percent in 2010 and 79 percent in 2009.

Graduation rates are determined by the number of students in a freshman class who graduate four years later.

Statewide the high school graduation rate was 73.4 percent in 2010, according to the state education department. Statistics for 2011 are

Moriah residents rally for ailing children PORT HENRY — When more than 300 people turned out for the Run/Walk for Kennedy, no one was surprised.

The 5-kilometer event raised money to help the family of Kennedy Taylor, an 11-year-old Moriah Central School student who is seriously ill.

“The school has been amazingly supportive,” said Mary Supernault, a family spokeswoman. “Kennedy’s really touched our lives. She’s pulled our community together.”

Taylor, the granddaughter of Leon and Paulette Taylor, was born with

health problems. She had liver and intestine transplants before the age of 3. Now she’s battling nonhodgkin’s lymphoma, skin cancer and blood cancer.

“She’s the most amazing little girl you’ll ever meet,” Supernault said.

“She’s been at death’s door several times. Paulette has never left her side.”

Taylor is the second Moriah student to face serious illness. Chastity

TICONDEROGA — Music of the Adirondacks will be featured during a performance by Dave Ruch in Ticonderoga.

The folksinger will offer a concert Friday, May 4, at 7 p.m. at the Ti Community Building. The concert will be free and refreshments will be served.

The event will be presented by the Ticonderoga First 250 Years Committee, The Ticonderoga Historical Society and the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum.

“When we think of old-time music handed down from generation to generation, we might think of places like Kentucky or North Carolina, or the Ozark Mountains….did you know we’ve got it right here in the Empire State, too?,” Ruch said.

Ruch will tell the stories behind the songs, stories of farmers, lumbermen, children, housewives, lake sailors, canallers and more.

A professional musician and educator based in Buffalo, Ruch gives more than 200 concerts and workshops each year for schools, libraries, music festivals, historical societies, museums and community events.

Ruch considers himself equal parts historian, entertainer, educator, comedian and folklorist.

He plays banjo, guitar, mandolin, octave mandolin, bones, spoons, washboard and jaw harp as he sings.

Ruch is a member of the New York State Historical Association, Canal Society of New York State, New York Folklore Society, and the Western New York Association of Historical Agencies.

The Ticonderoga First 250 Years Committee has been formed to plan the 250th anniversary celebration of Ticonderoga’s settlement. It is now seeking a logo for the commemoration.

The logo will be featured in promotions on-line and printed on various materials.

The group is holding a contest to find a logo. The competition is open to any individual, organization, business, educational institution or group. All submissions must contain a primary graphic that is a visual/artistic representation of the commemoration and must include the text: Ticonderoga, 250 Years, 1764-2014. The entry deadline is April 25.

The logo contest rules are available at the Hancock House, Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce and Community Building. Rules can also be requested by calling the Han-

The committee, co-sponsored by the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum and the Ticonderoga Historical Society, has been formed to lead the community in commemorating the 250th anniversary of the settlement of Ticonderoga and both the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Lake Champlain (War of 1812) and the 150th anniversary of the Civil War. “The purpose is for every individual, teacher, student, family, organization, association, club, business, church, etc. to delight in and celebrate preserving and sharing our rich history and common past,” said June Curtis of the committee.

The contest winner will be awarded $100. The winning logo will be on exhibit at the Ticonderoga Arts Gallery, Hancock House, Heritage Museum, Fort Ticonderoga, Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce and Community Building and will be featured in the many commemorative events and activities taking place throughout 2012 to 2014.

Sharks attack over APA decision

I

t was like the scene from the movie “Jaws” when you knew the shark was going to emerge and chomp down on whatever it could, you just didn’t know when.

So was the case last week, when Protect the Adirondacks! and the Atlantic Chapter of the Sierra Club filed a lawsuit against the Adirondack Park Agency, Department of Environmental Conservation and developers over the proposed Adirondack Club and Resort (ACR) in Tupper Lake. Everyone knew a challenge was coming. Now we know who filed it, when and where.

Along with the two “green” organizations, three adjacent landowners, Dr. Phyllis Thompson and Bob and Leslie Harrison, have joined the suit, which was filed under the argument that the APA did not do its job in the handling of the permitting process for the ACR. The real reason behind the lawsuit was later stated by Protect attorney John Caffry when he said, “Yes, we would like to kill it.”

The facts are that the Adirondack Club and Resort project has been one of the most scrutinized developments ever to come before the APA board, including when Protect member and former APA Executive Director John Glennon served.

The decision was not made easily or without sacrifice on both sides, which is what is needed for true compromise.

However, as Caffry stated, that is not enough for his group. They want to kill a project that would boost the local economy and help a once thriving town return to its former glory, much like the shark that feeds off unguarded swimmers in the movie.

This is a project that has been backed by every local official both in economics and politics. It has been a rallying point for the community and for the region.

To its credit, another green group, the Adirondack Council, after the hearings were completed, said the following: “We commend the Park Agency for its hard work and serious evaluation,” Executive Director Brian Houseal said. “There are adequate protections to avoid habitat fragmentation in the backcountry ... Tupper Lake needs economic development.

We hope the ski slope will be a success.

We don’t see any reason to pursue legal action.”

We applaud the Council for sticking to

that and not becoming party to this action. Sure, they had concerns just like the organizations who are suing did, but they saw the value in the APA process and the work that went into the decision. They saw that there was some compromise, creating a proposal that will both be good for the community and the Adirondacks.

We also found the timing and location of the announcement of this lawsuit troubling. The e-mails and releases announcing that the suit was going to be filed came late in the evening March 20, probably with hopes that it would be breaking news for many 11 p.m. television newscasts, but too late for coverage by the majority of the media. In any case, they met the 60-day deadline to file a challenge from the time of the APA’s decision on Jan. 20.

Also, the press conference announcing the lawsuit was held two days later in Albany.

Let that sink in for a moment.

Two organizations that claim to have the best interests of Tupper Lake and other Adirondack communities at heart host a press conference denouncing the ACR project — in Albany?

Why was it not held in Tupper Lake?

How about in front of the APA offices in Ray Brook? Why not in a place that is relevant to the case? Are they really showing care and concern for the region when they plead their case to people in Albany and not to the people of the North Country?

In the end, the only true media contact that occurred locally happened through phone calls, Internet communication and press releases.

The way it looks from here, these groups care more about their Albanybased membership than the people actually impacted by the project.

Now the game is officially on, and the shark has surfaced. Hopefully, this game will end the same way it did in the movie, with those defending themselves defeating the shark.

And hopefully, there will be no sequels.

Letters to the Editor

Ti teachers are the problem Bowling event a success To the Times of Ti: School (Ticonderoga Central School) budget question and comments: My question to Mr. (Superintendent John) McDonald is: What specifically do mean when you say “staff cuts would have had a tremendous negative impact on our students?” If you say there would be more students per teacher and quality of education would go down then I would have to say when I graduated in 1967 the class rooms were full with 25 to 30 students. My classmates and I got good educations and went on to be good citizens and employees working in a variety of professional fields. According to my year book we had a total of 61 teachers/aids including elementary grades and graduated 91.

There is a myth that our school is highly ranked academically. The quality of our education as measured

by SAT scores is not very good. I’m not sure where we rank in New York State, but I know New York ranks 46th in the nation, but our cost per student per year is the highest in the nation. Our SAT rating does not justify the highest paid teachers in the country.

To me the budget issue is caused by too many teachers at high salaries, number of aids and a pro teacher board of education who continues to gush money into teachers’ pockets through annual salary action which has averaged 4.62 percent over the last 20 years. Sixty percent of our teachers make between $60,000 and $100,000 per year with a tremendous benefits package!

I’m going to vote no to any budget presented because our superintendent and pro teacher board of education have cut in the wrong places and we will have to revisit the issue again next year.

I totally agree with the newly-formed student budget committee who also had an article in the paper last week. The board should listen to them, not cut what they want to keep and cut where the cuts need to be.

The budget can be managed and not have an impact on students. They just need to cut the right place, teachers and benefits.

I am not against teachers. I’m against paying higher taxes every year. The higher school taxes root cause is teachers and their high cost. When a teacher makes $99,000 a year, has the best insurance paid mostly by taxpayers, summer off, and a retirement benefit of $70,000 or so something is dreadfully wrong. Wake up Ticonderoga.

All the facts in this write up can be found in reputable web sites like seethroughny.com.

If you pay for it, it’s a right To the Times Of Ti: Mr. (John) Sharkey seems to be confused as to the function of a health insurance policy. An insurance company sells policies, mainly to employer based groups. The goal of the insurance company is to make a profit, but also to share the risk of insuring people over large groups, which allows the economy of large numbers to make the medical needs of the individuals more affordable when needs arise. If a policy outlines the terms of co-pays, deductibles and prescription drug coverage, then that level of coverage is indeed a right of the insured based on a contract with the insurer. Don’t you want to get what you pay for?

Some of the situations Ms. (Sandra) Fluke outlined in her testimony (which were not of interest to small, lurid minds like Rush Limbaugh) included women who had polycystic ovarian syndrome and symptoms of endometriosis, each of which could benefit from treatment with medication that also serves as contraception. In the case of polycystic ovarian syndrome, one woman stopped paying for the full expense of the prescription and the subsequent cyst growth required the removal of an ovary and triggered symptoms of early menopause. Essentially, the refusal of her insurance company to cover even the percentage outlined in the policy could lead to infertility—a very extreme method of unintended contraception which is apparently acceptable for the insurer.

According to the Georgetown Premier Plan booklet, services considered a medical necessity will be covered by the insurance plan. Just because medicine can be used for contraception does not mean it should not be used for other treatment purposes or to prevent certain cancers. Campus-based insurance plans are intended to offer affordable coverage to students who may not be covered by a parent’s plan and don’t have an employer based plan. Individual coverage is prohibitively expensive to most students.

We need affordable health care coverage for all people, regardless of where they work or go to school. If religious organizations don’t want to offer certain health care coverage options, they should decline to offer any and they should stand by their convictions.

With more people needing non-employer based insurance, the cost of that coverage should decrease.

To the Times of Ti: The Ticonderoga Alumni Association Board of Directors thanks all who supported and/or participated in our first annual Strikes for Students Bowling Tournament on March 10 and 11 at Adirondack Lanes. We appreciate the community support of this fundraiser.

A special thank you goes to all the enthusiastic bowlers, our tournament advisers Donna Fleury, Linda Osborne and Robin Nowc, and our volunteers. Also most appreciated are Derrick Fleury, Tucker’s Gym, and Anne Michalak who donated back their Strike Pool winnings, the Wind-Chill Factory for the donation of the ice cream certificates given to our student bowlers, The Times of Ti for the advance article, and Adirondack Lanes for all the wonderful support as well as the donation of a bowling ball for our raffle.

Congratulations to our winning teams! But even if your team was not one of the winners, future Ticonderoga High School graduates are. Proceeds from the tournament will benefit the Ticonderoga Alumni Association Scholarship Fund.

Women can make their own decisions To the Times of Ti: A recent letter chided the use of birth control drugs by women but never mentioned that drugs for men with erectile dysfunction are available under most health plans! Republicans in national and state office are doing their best to deprive women of what the layman calls “The Pill.” They make no exceptions and as the letter writer did, they seem to have no problem with men receiving drugs that have no other purpose than to help them have sexual relations!

Never mind the fact that “The Pill” is not only used for birth control but for other maladies such as to lower the chances of women getting ovarian cancer for those with a family history of the disease! “The Pill” also lowers the chances for other cancers, endometriosis, amenorrhea, severe cramps, premenstrual syndrome, unnaturally heavy and long menses and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome!

One has to ask why are politicians making medical decisions for women instead of doctors!

The Republican Party proudly pronounces that they want government out of our daily lives and then they invade the welfare of women as if women are incapable of knowing what is good for them!

I have news for those who would try to put women back into the dark ages! Women can make their own decisions and they don’t need a bunch of old men taking control of their care!

As a man who has a great respect for women, I urge them to unite and let those who would infringe on their rights, know their days are numbered! November is coming and women will have a chance to take back their lives and make their own medical decisions!

Gary P. Guido Ticonderoga

Jewish support appreciated To the Times of Ti: I want to thank you (Dan Alexander) for your recent editorial on the Beren’s Jewish Academy basketball team. I am aware of and moved by their story, but more than that, I am moved by your public recognition of the commitment of observant Jews to the principles of their faith – my faith.

To observe the laws of Torah in a secular and Christian culture is somewhat like living in a parallel universe, people operating in different value and time systems yet side by side. The Beren’s story illustrates that.

Over the centuries, Jews have not gotten as much support from our Christian neighbors as we have gotten, in its most benign form, messages that we should come off of it and just go along with the majority. In times not so benign, we have been brutally persecuted for adherence to our beliefs and practices.

When a public figure such as yourself, as editor of a relatively small rural newspaper and with no apparent motive other than to call attention to the positive outcome of religious conviction writes what you wrote (I make the assumption you are not Jewish), it makes my heart swell with gratitude and a sense of security that even in this remote area where you and I live there are Gentiles who recognize and applaud the values of a committed Jewish life.

It is people like you who throughout the ages have given Jews the comfort to know that we are not alone, and that there are people who will stand up and provide a haven from the influences that have tried to marginalize, if not destroy us.

Thank you again for your insights and the courage of your words. God bless you.

Ti Chamber on the grow

T

he Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce is working hard every day to better serve its members, area businesses and the Ticonderoga area. Without the dedication and support of our members everything the chamber does would not be possible.

Over the last year and half we have been welcoming our new members and working hard to Matthew Courtright serve, market and promote all of Chamber Connection our chamber members and the Ticonderoga area. The chamber has gone through many changes and will continue to grow and change as we look towards the future. We have reorganized or will be reorganizing all of our computer systems, programs, membership database, our office space, and more. We have started marketing the chamber, our members and the Ticonderoga area in new ways and will continue to do so even more in the future.

Need for vendor notices questioned Signs make Ti appear unfriendly

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga needs to make a better first impression.

That’s the feeling of the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership.

“We contend that at the town entrances, Ticonderoga fails to present itself as a welcoming and historic town due to several shortcomings in the signage,” Ken Engler, chairman of the TMSP design committee, told the Ti town board in March.

Engler ’s chief complaint are signs reading “Agents Solicitors Vendors License Required...” at each entrance to the community.

“At some of the five entrances, this is the very first and the largest sign a visitor encounters,” Engler said. “We note that no other town in this region posts such signs.”

The TMSP design committee is developing plans to improve signage at town entrances, but those plans are on hold while determining whether the vendor signs are necessary.

“Before we can prepare recommendations for improving the image of Ticonderoga that is presented at the town entrances, we need to know the actual, legal and practical requirement for these signs,” Engler said.

The TMSP committee asked the town board whether the

signs are required by law or if they could be moved.

“If these signs are specified by town ordinance, we request that the ordinance be evaluated and perhaps modified to allow removal of these signs or at least to allow them to be smaller and to be positioned further from the town line,”Engler said. “If state law requires these signs, we would like to be informed of what that law specifies as to the size of the signs and the distance beyond the town border where the sign may be placed.”

Uncertain about the legal requirements, Supervisor Deb Malaney asked town attorney Matt Fuller to investigate.

Fuller stated that most signs regarding laws of the municipality are right on the town line.

“It is a notice provision that they are at the entrances of the municipalities; it is the same all over,” Fuller said. “It is done to put people on notice, the big one being agents and solicitors. You see this one all over the area and another is mobile homes.”

Councilman Steve Whitford asked if the signs could be moved away from the town line.

Fuller said he was uncertain, but would investigate for trustees.

Malaney agreed the signs are not welcoming to visitors.

Engler said as soon as the TMSP gets answers to the legal questions it will move forward with developing a more friendly entrance to Ticonderoga.

“Must these be the first words of welcome to Ticonderoga?” Engler asked. “With these (legal) answers in hand, we look forward to completing our recommendations for the improvement of the signage at the town entrances.”

Ti students take ideas to Albany State governor leads delegation

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — There’s no doubt about it, the 2012 New York State Youth & Government conference was the best ever, according to the governor.

“I admit I’m bias, but I feel it was the best conference ever,” said Paige Hughes, New York governor.

“We had the sharpest, most intelligent delegates New York has ever had. It was honestly the best conference I could have hoped for.”

Leading the conference was Hughes and 13 other delegates from Ticonderoga High School.

“When you get to Albany, everyone knows who the Ti kids are,” Hughes said. “Ticonderoga has established itself as a leader in Youth & Government.”

Joining Hughes at the state conference in March were Ti delegates Garrison Hughes, Will Lawrie, Ian Lawrie, Michael Watts, Dale Quesnel, Karney Manning, Josie Worley, Joe Gonyeau, Logan Ross, Jacob Young, Zech Yaw, Cody Shaner and Tomas Hendrix.

Danielle Palandrani is the Ticonderoga Youth in Government adviser.

Youth & Government, sponsored by the YMCA, is a national program that involves teens in stateorganized, model-government programs. Students work on the local and district levels researching issues. They then go to the state conference where they divide into three branches of government — executive, legislative and judicial.

There they propose, debate and adopt laws designed to meet the needs of the state.

Students fill the roles of legislators, lobbyists, pages, lawyers, judges, media and others. More than 550 students took part.

The state conference is held in Albany in the State Capitol, the Legislative Office Building and the Judicial Building.

While it’s a student exercise in government, it is serious business.

Joining Gov. Paige Hughes at the New York State Youth & Government conference in were Ti delegates Garrison Hughes, Will Lawrie, Ian Lawrie, Michael Watts, Dale Quesnel, Karney Manning, Josie Worley, Joe Gonyeau, Logan Ross, Jacob Young, Zech Yaw, Cody Shaner and Tomas Hendrix. Danielle Palandrani is the Ticonderoga Youth in Government adviser.

State leaders pay close attention to their student counterparts. In fact, more than 80 current New York State laws were first introduced in the New York State Youth & Government Legislature.

Hughes is the second state governor from Ticonderoga. Joe Hiro was elected to the post in 1995-96.

The conference marked the end of Hughes’ year in office. In her farewell address she challenged New York delegates to work up to their potential.

“I told them that they’re New York’s greatest generation,” Hughes said. “I believe that’s true. I challenged them to live up to it.”

More than 100 bills were proposed by delegates at the conference. About half were adopted, the

most in a decade. Many bills dealt with education reform, economic growth and the legalization of casino gambling.

Ticonderoga delegates were successful in getting a bill to ban possession of tobacco by under-age people passed. Ti delegates failed to get a bill on illegal immigration approved.

Ti students also served as lawyers for a man who claimed he was illegally dismissed from his job. They lost the case, but earned praise for their arguments.

“It’s interesting to watch and see the time and effort these kids put into actual issues,” said Palandrani, who stressed there is no adult involvement at the conference. “The kids are motivated and

incredibly well prepared.”

Hughes said the state conference is inspiring.

“A lot of adults look at today’s youth as if there’s no hope for the future,” she said. “When you get to Albany and see so many teens come together for a common goal it’s amazing. I feel really good about our future.”

Serving as state governor has been a privilege, Hughes said.

“It’s been fascinating, a wonderful opportunity,” she said. “It’s really opened my eyes to the possibilities that are out there for me and the impact I can have in the future.”

The senior plans to attend college in the fall to study journalism and public policy. She would like

to become a political analyst.

“The past year has been such a learning experience,” Hughes said.

“I have a lot more respect for all the delegates after seeing how hard they work.”

Hughes attended the Youth & Government governor ’s conference in Washington, D.C., last June and represented New York at the national Youth & Government conference last July. She also visited five districts in New York as governor. Although her term as governor is over, Hughes has been invited to the Massachusetts Youth & Government conference in May. “It’s been a busy year,” Hughes said, “but I’ve loved every bit of it.”

Ticonderoga • Times of Ti - 13

Cell phone drive concludes in Ti TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union has concluded its third annual cell phone drive.

The drive asked the public to donate their old cell phones and chargers as well as women’s clothing and toiletry items at TFCU’s three branch locations, throughout January and February.

Dozens of cell phones and several large bags of clothing were collected and donated to the STOP Domestic Violence Center of Essex County, where the cell phones will be turned into emergency 911 lifelines for victims of domestic violence.

“We’re extremely pleased to support this important agency in our communities through the generosity of our members,” said TFCU President and CEO Shawn Hayes.

The cell phones that are collected through TFCU’s drive serve about 50 clients annually. Any phones that are not given out by the end of the year are sent to Verizon for refurbishment, with proceeds from refurbishment being returned

to the center to help support their program.

STOP Domestic Violence provides confidential safe dwellings, supportive counseling, a 24-hour hotline, crisis intervention and advocacy through the courts, DSS, police and CPS. The STOP Domestic Violence hotline number is 1888-563-6904.

Anyone wanting to donate cell phones can mail them to Verizon’s Hope Line Project. A postage-paid mailing label is available in the Newsroom on TFCU’s website, www.tfcunow.com. Cell phones mailed to this address will be distributed to victims of domestic violence.

Established in 1954, Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union has been serving the financial needs of its members for 58 years. It currently operates through conveniently located offices on Route 9N in Ticonderoga, Meacham Street in Port Henry, and Court Street in Elizabethtown and can be found online at www.tfcunow.com.

The alternative education program, which needs state approval, would allow struggling students to develop job skills by substituting internships and work study for some academic classes.

“We’re seeing kids hit a wall,” McDonald said. “This is a way to a high school diploma through modified graduation requirements that meets the needs of some students.”

Mike Graney, Ti High principal, stressed the goal will still remain the same — that every student graduate with a Regents diploma.

“Sometimes you just can’t fit a round peg into a square hole,” Graney said. “This will be another way to help these students experience success.”

If approved by the state, the program will begin this fall and serve about 15 students.

McDonald stressed the program will have no additional costs to Ti taxpayers since the space will be donated and classes will be taught by existing staff.

“In fact, it will probably save us money,” McDonald said. “Because of their frustration these students often become discipline problems. Then we have to tutor them and provide other services outside school. That costs us money. If we can keep them in school we save money.”

Graney agreed that the new program can save money. Ti High has students who received tutoring outside of the school at taxpayer expense as mandated by the state for a variety of reasons — discipline, health, legal and others.

“A lot of this is done after school,” Graney said. “If we can do this during the school day at an alternative location it will save us money.”

Sheridan Burleigh, a Ticonderoga special education teacher, approached the Ticonderoga town board recently seeking donated space for the alternative education program.

“We are looking for space outside the high school because we feel that these kids would be more successful in a slightly different environment,” he told town trustees.

Deb Malaney, Ticonderoga supervisor, embraced the program. She believes the town can find room for the students in the basement of the Community Building.

“The project is looking to adhere to academics in the morning with a work study, community service or internship program in the afternoon in order to get these kids more hands-on activities,” Burleigh said. “We can garner credits for work study and things like that.

“It would be a great experience for these kids and the goal is to get the kids their diplomas, but to also get them back into the mainstream of the regular school by the time they are juniors and to make them better citizens of Ticonderoga,” he said.

“If we can get community-service type projects, kids will start to take ownership of the community and start to appreciate where they live and what a great place this is,” Burleigh said.

McDonald is confident the state will approve the alternative education program in time for its to begin in September.

“We want to open as many doors as possible for our students,” McDonald said. “Not every kid is going to college. We’re looking to help some kids who are interested in other careers.”

Graney said the proposal makes sense.

“We already address the needs of these students, but we feel we can do it in a more efficient way that provides a better education for the kids,” he said. “It’s a win-win.”

Crash kills Vermont man

By Katherine Clark katherine@denpubs.com

DEC burn ban in place during dry spring all places.

Several factors enable wildfires to start easily and spread quickly at this time, including the lack of green vegetation, abundance of available fuels such as dry grass and leaves, warm temperatures and wind.

Open burning is the largest single cause of wildfires in New York state. Data from DEC’s Forest Protection Division shows that debris burning accounted for about 36 percent of wildfires in the state between 1985 and 2009, which is more than twice the next most-cited cause. In addition, from 2000 to 2009 New York’s fire departments responded to an average of 2,300 wildfires each year from March 14 to May 16.

That represents about 46 percent of all wildfires for the year.

Fire department data for

2010 and 2011 indicated a 26 percent reduction in wildfires during the burn ban period for those years when compared to the previous 10 years (2000-2009). In addition, 86 percent of all communities across the state had a reduction of wildfires compared with the previous five years.

Some towns are designated “fire towns” primarily in and around the Adirondack Park and Catskill Park. Under the Environmental Conservation Law, open burning is prohibited in these municipalities without a written permit from DEC. Open burning is prohibited at any time in these municipalities. To find out whether a town is a designated “Fire Town” and/or to obtain a permit, parties should contact a DEC regional office.

CROWN POINT — All residential brush burning is prohibited during the state’s historically high firerisk period through May 14, state Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Joe Martens reminded New Yorkers.

“This time of year has the most risk of fires and the risk is even greater this year due to the extremely mild winter we’ve seen across the state,” Martens said.

“Since the open burning regulation passed in 2009, there have been fewer fires reported in New York state.

In an effort to protect the health and safety of our children, families and our natural environment, we remind residents that brush burning is banned statewide beginning this week.”

In 2009, New York toughened restrictions on open burning to reduce harmful air pollutants and help prevent wildfires. While the burn ban regulation allows residential brush burning for most of the year in towns with a populations of less than 20,000, it prohibits open burning in all communities during early spring when the bulk of New York’s wildfires typically occur. The state regulation prohibits the burning of garbage at all times and in

CROWN POINT — A two-car accident on Bridge Road resulted in the death of a Vermont man March 28.

Jeffrey Demars, age 43, of East Middlebury, was ejected from his vehicle and pronounced deceased when emergency response arrived on scene around 8 p.m.

According to a press release, New York State Police at Crown Point arrived on the scene of the two-car motor vehicle accident on State Route 910L, Bridge Road in Crown Point at 8:06 p.m.

Investigation at the scene revealed that Demars was operating a 1986 Jeep westbound on Bridge Road in Crown Point. Demars had just passed over the Crown Point Bridge from Vermont when his vehicle then crossed over the double yellow lines into the opposite lane. Demars’ vehicle then struck a 2002 Toyota Pick-Up truck operated by Kirk Roscoe, age 37, of Crown Point.

Etown Hospital enters partnership Enhanced services, lower costs expected

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Elizabethtown Community Hospital will soon be a part of a four-hospital network including facilities in Clinton County and Vermont.

The hospital, along with Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital in Plattsburgh, agreed in principle to a four-hospital affiliation under Fletcher Allen Partners, the parent organization of Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington and Central Vermont Medical Center (CVMC) in Berlin, Vt. The two New York hospitals are run under the umbrella of Community Providers, Inc. “I am hopeful that an agreement will be reached and am excited about the possibilities that this affiliation could provide our area residents, employees and physicians,” ECH Executive Director Rod Boula said. “ECH is a strong organization and partnering with other strong organizations like Fletcher Allen Partners will help serve our local community members through access to specialists, including the use of telemedicine, the potential of adding clinical rotations for primary care physicians and providing ECH with access to capital so that expansion projects or major equipment purchases can be easily undertaken.”

Boula said that he hoped the partnership would help the hospitals increase the level of care to patients.

“This is all being done in an effort to enhance our primary care services, closer to home for our Essex County residents and visitors,” Boula said.

Boula spoke recently about a grant the hospital had received to improve their telemedicine capabilities, which include Emergency Room link-up with Fletcher Allen.

ECH currently has telemedicine technology in its chemotherapy department and also uses the technology to communicate with Fletcher Allen Hospital in Burlington when it comes to stroke patients. Boula said that the grant

will increase the capabilities within the hospital, as well.

“This will be all state-of-the-art systems that will connect us with the emergency rooms at Fletcher Allen and CVPH as well as to our health centers,” Boula said. “It’s not Skype, it’s all high definition and top of the field.”

The purpose of the proposed affiliation is to establish a coordinated, highly integrated health care system that will improve quality, increase access, and lower costs of health care in the communities served by the four hospitals in Vermont and upstate New York.

The letter of intent was unanimously approved earlier this month by the boards of trustees of both Fletcher Allen Partners and CPI. “Pursuing an affiliation with Fletcher Allen Partners is a wonderful opportunity for CVPH Medical Center and Elizabethtown Community Hospital and the thousands of North Country residents that we serve,” Stephens Mundy, president and CEO of CPI and CVPH, said. “This proposed affiliation would increase access to care, enhance quality and provide much needed services more cost effectively than if we continued to operate without such collaboration.”

Mundy added that the agreement would add to work already being done between CVPH and Vermont.

“CVPH’s recent cardiac surgery affiliation with Fletcher Allen is just the first of many initiatives that we expect to occur which will expand our communities’ access to care closer to home,” he said.

CATS essay contest to promote region PORT HENRY — Champlain Area Trails has launched its spring travel writing contest.

“We invite people to write about using the trails, patronizing local businesses and visiting New York’s Champlain Valley,” said Chris Maron, CATS executive director. “The winning entry will win $500 and People’s Choice prize is $250 so it is definitely worth the effort. All the entries will be on our website and linked to many others making it a good way to promote the valley and give exposure to writers.”

CATS is coordinating a series of travel writing contests to boost the local

economy through outdoor recreation based tourism.

“People research vacation destinations online, so as they look into visiting the northeast, we want them to see these articles about New York’s Champlain Valley and get inspired to come here, enjoy the outdoors, visit local businesses, and tell others about this beautiful area,” added Maron.

The trail group’s first travel writing contest concluded in December with first prize awarded for an article jointly written by a ninth grade student and his tutor in Westport and the People’s Choice prize to a young mother who

named her baby while hiking a CATS trail.

CATS wants to compile travel articles describing visits throughout the year to encourage more year-round tourism.

The CATS travel contest, underwritten with a grant from the J.C. Kellogg Foundation, will run through April 30 with prizes awarded at the Celebrate Champlain Area Trails Event in Essex on National Trails Day, June 2. Entrants should submit 800- to 1,300-word articles with two to six photos. For full details go online at www.champlainareatrails.com/contest.

Port Henry man charged PORT HENRY — A Port Henry man has been charged with allegedly groping an underage, teenage girl at the home of a friend.

John W. Hickey, 51, of Port Henry was arrested by State Police for forcible touching and endangering the welfare of a child, both Class A misdemeanors.

He was committed to the Essex County Jail at Lewis, but later released on $1,500 bail.

The incident occurred at a home in Port Henry, police said.

Hickey was arrested on March 18, after a complaint by the girl’s mother.

Hickey was arrested on a similar charge in June 2001,

Moriah • Times of Ti - 17

while employed as a deputy sheriff by the Essex County Sheriff ’s Department. He was accused of groping a 17-yearold girl in the town of Jay, after going to the wrong home to serve court papers.

In the Jay case, he was arrested for misdemeanor sexual abuse and official misconduct, paid a fine and served no jail time. He also resigned from the Sheriff ’s Department as part of a plea agreement.

Hickey is a laborer on the Port Henry Department of Public Works.

Police believe LeClair had gone to Johnson’s home to collect a drug debt.

Johnson, who has at least three prior felony drug convictions, was held in Warren County Jail without bail, pending a preliminary hearing March 23.

Former Schroon man shot

A sex offender who failed to register his new address when he moved to Florida in 2010 was arrested March 23.

Robert J. Chenier, 31, of Ticonderoga, was recently arrested by Ticonderoga Police, who turned him over to the South Glens Falls Police Department.

He was charged with failing to register as a sex offender, a felony.

Moreau Town Court had issued a warrant on Sept. 30, 2010, when he moved to Florida on or about Sept. 15, 2010.

He was previously convicted for failing to register as a sex offender on April 15, 2010.

Bail was set at $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond.

A former Schroon Lake resident was shot March 18 in what Glens Falls police characterize as a “drug related” incident.

Nicholas J. LeClair of Glens Falls, a Schroon Lake Central School graduate, was hit in the lower leg by about 50 pellets of bird shot from a shotgun blast, police report.

LeClair spent more than five hours in surgery, officials said, but his injuries were not considered life threatening.

Schroon Lake set to put 3.99 percent tax hike before voters

By Katherine Clark katherine@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — The Schroon Lake School Board is preparing to put a spending plan with a 3.99 percent tax levy increase before the voters.

On March 22, Superintendent Bonnie Finnerty and the board of education decided to construct a budget package for voters that includes a tax levy of $6,096,798, an increase of $315,944 over the current levy.

The total 2012-13 budget the district will put to voters is $7,235,566, a decrease of $16,6813 from the 2011-12 budget which is $7,402,379.

The 3.99 increase exceeds the state tax levy cap and would therefore require a 60 percent majority of voter approval to pass.

Even with the 3.99 tax increase, the district will still need to close a $482,763 gap in revenue, and district officials are considering a number of possible staff and extra-curricular cuts to make up the difference.

As part of that, the teachers association at Schroon Lake has agreed to a pay freeze and a down grade in their health insurance benefit package which will save the district $104,000.

“This isn’t the first time we’ve done it and we want to do whats best for our students and by taking zero percent that was a way to ballance the budget a few years ago and last year we took zero again,” said teacher association president Laura Corey.

The new budget will go before voters on May 15.

If the voters reject the spending plan containing the 3.99 percent tax levy, board members said they will most likely adopt a budget that falls below the tax cap allowed by the state, which is 2.94 percent.

Schroon Lake Self Storage RENT AT FRIEDMAN REALTY-MAIN ST. SCHROON VILLAGE

518-532-7933

That will leave $544,084 to be made up through cuts to programs and employees.

If voters oppose the budget a second time, then the district will be forced to adopt a contingency budget. A contingency budget would require a 0 percent tax levy increase and carry an estimated budget deficit of $700,578.

“If we go to a contingency budget, you would be talking about true program reductions,” said Superintendent Bonnie Finnerty.

During the meeting, Finnerty outlined a list of proposed reductions to balance the deficit.

Possible deficit reduction strategies include; master schedule revision/reductions, Teacher Professional Development reduction, BOCES contractual specific reduction, BOCES contractual technology reduction, co-curricular activities-salary reductions, athletics-instructional salary reductions, operations materials and supplies reduction, maintenance materials and supplies reduction, and use of additional fund balance. The proposed reductions would save the school district $539,814.

Proposed, non-mandated extra-curricular activity reductions include SADD (students against destructive decisions club), and elimination of the senior play that could save the district on construction, set design, scenery, costume design and accompaniment.

For sports reductions, the board proposed cuts to the boys junior varsity basketball team and modified baseball team.

Finnerty said the sports team reductions were chosen due to low participation numbers and the probable lack of opposing teams in the school’s sports division.

Rumored cuts of a full-time elementary reading position prompted three community members and parents, Chris Fariss, Wayne Welch, and Dana Shaughnessy to circulate a petition against the cut. Fariss presented the petition to the board at the meeting, which included 200 signatures. Fariss said there are more petitions circulating.

“Reading has to come first, for our kids,” Fariss said.

No decision was made at the meeting on eliminating the reading teacher. The board approved the resignation of faculty member Mike Banewicz, a band teacher, and the retirement of Bill Rourke, a librarian. Finnerty said the proposed budget includes the elimination of an elementary teacher but did not specify what position it would be.

During the meeting, the board approved a measure to hire a physics teacher who will be shared with the school district in Keene. The new teacher would work a few days at Keene Central School and a few days a week with Schroon Lake students to allow those who wish to take physics to do so. The board also approved a measure that would increase the alloted unemployment benefits to $10,000.

Matt Savarie and Katelyn Rose relax prior to the Schroon Lake Central School National Honor Society induction ceremony.

“I was greatly impressed by the interest and participation of the Schroon Lake students,” said D’Amico, chairman of the Peace Poster contest. “Our members have been consistently pleased with the enthusiasm, thoughtfulness and creativity of all the young people who have participated. The Schroon Lake Lions are also deeply appreciative for the guidance and inspiration provided the students by their art teacher Brie Roscrans.”

Moriah from page 1 When her illness kept the Moriah Central School fifth grade student on the sidelines, others ran for her Sunday, March 11.

“We had the Girls on the Run program at school last year,” Jessica Bosarge, school counselor, said.

“Kennedy really wanted to be part of it, but just couldn’t because of her illness. We thought this may be way to make her feel involved.”

That day Taylor was able to greet runners and walkers as they passed her home.

“She felt good enough to come outside,” Bosarge said. “That made it all worthwhile.”

That run/walk raised $4,500. An earlier spaghetti dinner raised $8,000. At the annual Moriah ParentTeacher Association Moriah Madness a bake sale was held with proceeds being split between the Taylor and O’Connor families.

Both girls were able to attend Moriah Madness.

“Kennedy doesn’t want to miss an event; she’s a real social butterfly,” Bosarge said.

Taylor was returned to the hospital two days after Moriah Madness.

“She’s a wonderful girl,” Supernault said.

Adk Marathon adds event Four-person relay now available

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — The Adirondack Marathon is growing.

Race officials have announced the addition of a four-person relay to the race, which already features a two-person relay and full marathon along with a half marathon.

“It makes the race much more accessible to people,” Joel Friedman, race director, said.

“Now people will be able to participate without having to run the entire 26.2 miles. It’ll be a great addition.”

Legs in the four-person relay will be approximately 5, 8, 5 and 8 miles.

Entries will be capped at 50 teams each for the four-person and two-person relays in 2012.

“That may grow in the future, but we want to be certain everything works well this year,” Friedman said. “We want to be certain everything works smoothly before we expand any further.”

The 2012 Adirondack Marathon, half marathon and relay will be held Sunday, Sept.

23. Last year nearly 1,000 runners took part in the event, which also features 5 and 10kilometer road races in Chestertown the day before. The weekend is billed as the Adirondack Marathon Distance Festival. It also in-

cludes a children’s kilometer run, a race expo and a pasta dinner on Saturday.

Registration for the 2012 Adirondack Marathon is now open online at www.adirondackmarathon.org Free marathon registration is available to the first 60 active duty military, guard and reserve and free half marathon entries to the first 30 to sign up. Military are required to show their CAC card at packet pickup.

Again this year “Pace Bears” will help marathon runners reach their goal pace.

“Pace Bear” groups will cross the finish line beginning at 3:30 and in 15 minute increments afterward through a 5-hour pace.

“The ‘Pace Bears’ were really popular,” Friedman said. “People really liked that.”

The marathon has been recommended by Runner ’s World magazine as one of “Eight Great Events to Kick Off the Fall Racing Season.” The race was also listed in the book “From Fairbanks to Boston, 50 Great U.S. Marathons” as one of the top 50 races in the country. Prevention Magazine listed the Schroon race as one of the best “walkerfriendly” events in the country.

The marathon starts on Main Street in Schroon Lake. The single loop course circumnavigates Schroon Lake over challenging forest roads with lakeside views until it finishes back at the Schroon Lake town beach.

The marathoners have company over the second half of the course as the half marathoners start in Adirondack and race to

Schroon Lake Central School runners completing the Adirondack Half Marathon last fall were, from left, Dan Maisonville, Levi Williams and Caleb Maisonville. the finish in Schroon Lake 13.1 miles later.

The Adirondack Marathon Distance Festival is designed to raise money for college scholarships and the Helpers Fund, a Chestertown group that assists people and families in need, Friedman said. It also promotes the region and boosts the local economy.

The addition of the four-person relay will help the event grow, he said.

“Our goal is to raise more money to, in turn, give away more money as well as serve our region and community,” Friedman said.

The marathon group now awards four $2,000 scholarships each year to students from the Schroon Lake and North Warren school districts.

Also helping grow the Adirondack

Marathon Distance Festival is the participation of charity runners.

In 2012 Team In Training, which has runners collect pledges for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, raised nearly $55,000 during the Adirondack Marathon.

Friedman hopes the race can also attract participants from Team Hole in Wall, which raises money for the Double H Ranch in Lake Luzerne that serves children with lifethreatening illnesses, and Team MS, which raises money for multiple sclerosis research and support.

Friedman noted volunteers are always welcome to assist with the event. Interested people can Email info@adirondackmarathon.org

One last cast ...

ly quite receptive to the fly.

When the boys arrived with their Dad, they walked him slowly down to the ponds, and it was obvious he could not stand.

Fortunately, I had some camp chairs set up along the pond and the flyrods were quickly rigged. The boys took to the ponds, just like the boys they once were.

Sitting in a comfortable chair, their father began to cast an old bamboo, flyrod. In his hands, the old cane rod appeared to be a natural extension of his arm, and the casts were fluid and graceful.

He retrieved line with a slow, careful stripping motion, and in short order, he had the first fish on. We knew immediately it was a rainbow, as it arched out of the water in a powerful leap.

Following several strong runs, and spectacular arching leaps, it finally came to the net. The boy posed with their Dad for photos with the fish, before releasing it, and over the course of the morning, they took several nice fish, including a few that topped four pounds or better.

Their father had similar success, however he tired quickly.

In less than an hour’s time, the boys made the cast and handed him the rod, to strip the line. Often, they landed the fish as well.

It was noon when we broke for lunch, and conversation turned to recollections of past angling exploits, as their Dad recalled the days spent in Canada, back in the 1940's and ‘50’s, fishing for Atlantic salmon on the rivers, and angling for brook trout on the ponds.

After lunch, he asked if there was any chance to catch a wild brook trout. "I truly appreciate your efforts,” he explained, "But, I'd really like to catch a wild trout'."

I understood his desire. Although the stocked fish were large, and strong, the atmosphere was tame, especially in comparison with his experiences in the wilds of Canada. I talked it over with the boys, and they agreed to give it a shot.

An hour later, we were on a small pond near Paul Smiths, with the boys in a guideboat, and their Dad and his wife, in my rowing canoe. I had the boys casting dry flies along the shoreline, and soon, they were catching brookies. Immediately, their laughter was bouncing off the surrounding hills.

Their father commented on how much he enjoyed the sound, as he recounted tales of fishing trips they had taken together over the years.

By the late afternoon, I had tied over a dozen different flies on his line; but the brookies showed little interest. We had trolled streamer flies, nymphs and wet flies for hours, to no avail.

As the day worn on, the gentleman wore out, and even the boys were having difficulties cultivating a trout.

Soon they decided to call it a day. Before heading to shore, I

"Finally, the big brookie was in the net." changed his fly to a cone-head muddler minnow, in order to get down to the deeper, cooler waters where the trout were more active.

I pulled hard on the oars, as the old gent stripped out long line, and when it was appropriate; I began tracing a zigzag pattern across the surface, to get his fly to drop and rise, in an erratic fashion.

It had been a long day, and the old gent was obviously very tired, as we approached the shore. Suddenly his rod bowed and line began to peel off the reel with a pronounced “zzzzzzzt.”

Immediately, I backed down on the oars, as the fish continued to take line. I decided to give chase, but line continued to spool off. There was no indication the fish was going to slow down, but after a seesaw battle, the big brookie finally rolled on the surface. It was a male, with brilliant colors and a pronounced hook jaw. And it was huge!

I backed down on the oars in order to get the fish alongside the boat, and ever so carefully, I slipped the net under him. I knew the old gent was wearing out faster than the fish, and with one swift move, I had it in the net.

The brookie weighed over four pounds, and measured exactly 22 inches in length. It was truly a trophy, and I hoisted it high for the boys to see.

After a few photos, he released the fish, explaining, "I got what I came for, and now it's time to go home."

My job was done, and after a round of handshakes and mutual backslapping; I loaded the boats and stowed the gear, while they slowly drove away.

A month had passed, before I got a letter from the boys. It included a Thank You note, and a copy of their father’s obituary, in which he had claimed, “I've never landed a fish, finer than my last."

I

’ll be along in just a minute, I’m just gonna’ take one last cast.

Over the years, I’ve heard that refrain a thousand times.

Usually, it comes from a kid, who’s so hyped up catching fish, he has to be dragged away, kicking and screaming.

It’s a standard plea for parental patience. It also comes from adults, with the same pleading intonation, as from children.

Despite advancing in age, as sons and daughters, we are forever children when in the presence of our parents. It is a role that we simply cannot escape.

In my long career as a fishing guide, I've received numerous requests from adult children. They generally begin like this, "Dad always took us to the Adirondacks for an annual fishing trip, and now we'd like to take him on one. But, he can't get around like he used to, and we were wondering if you could help us out?" It is a request I always strive to fulfill.

The process of angling seems to bring out the kid in everyone. In fact, memories of angling adventures are often citied as one of the most indelible scenes etched into our psyche.
