PORT HENRY — The Moriah Central School women’s choir made the big time this spring.

The choir performed at Disney World in Orlando, Fla., as part of the Disney Performing Arts Program March 21 to 26.

The performance capped a nearly

year-long effort to raise the money needed to send the group after it was selected following an audition last spring. “We participated in a 2 1/2 hour workshop with a Disney vocal professional where the girls recorded a song that was put into a Disney music video,� said April Reeder, Moriah music teacher and choir director. “We also learned choreography to a dance featured in the “High School

Musical� movie. On Saturday the girls sang on stage at Downtown Disney.�

The Moriah choir decided to audition for the Disney program after hearing about it from students at Lake Placid Central School. “We discovered about the Disney Performing Arts Program through another local school which had participated a couple times in the past 10 years,� Reeder said. “This

Department store may be coming to Ti designer brands to small town America. Selection. That’s what we’re all about. Our specialty is bringing nationallyknown, brand-name apparel, accessories, footwear and cosmetics to small towns and communities throughout the U.S.” It lists its brands as adidas, Sun River, U.S. Polo Assn, Elizabeth ArdenChaps, Hannah, New Balance, nautica, Levi’s, Company8, Dockers, Specialty Girl,Calvin Klein, Lee, Carter's, j.h. collectibles, Estee Lauder, Graphite, Wihul Park, naturalizer, Nike, South Pole, Clinique, Skechers, easyspirit, VanHeusen, Ruby Rd., Union Bay, Chaus, alfred dunner, Clark’s, BareTraps, Champion and Gloria Vanderbilt.

An average store size is 18,350 selling square feet. In fiscal year 2010 the company had sales of approximately $1.5 billion. It has approximately 13,000 employees.

“The company believes that it has developed a unique retailing concept and niche in these markets by offering a broad range of nationally recognized brand name merchandise with a high level of customer service in convenient locations,” according to the Stage Stores website.

The company generally locates in areas with a population of 20-30,000 within a 10-mile radius, 20-30 miles away from a competitor department store and near a national discount retail store.

The Ticonderoga area is on the low side of Stage’s population target, but its well removed from other department stores and has Wal-Mart located about a quarter mile from the former Grand Union building in Ticonderoga.

Peebles being discussed

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga could soon have a new department store.

Stage Stores, Inc. is in discussions that could lead to the opening of a Peebles in the community.

The Houston-based company operates more than 800 stores under the Bealls, Goody’s, Palais Royal, Peebles and Stage trade names.

According to the company website, Stage Stores “brings moderately-priced, nationally-recognized brand name and private label apparel, accessories, cosmetics and footwear for the entire family to small and mid-size towns and communities across 40 states.”

Kathy Castro, media planner for Stage Stores, said the company is not yet ready to make an announcement about a possible Ticonderoga store.

Deb Malaney, Ticonderoga supervisor, said she understands the company is considering placing a Peebles in the former Grand Union building located at the intersection of Routes 9n and 74.

“I heard it was the old Grand Union, but there’s no confirmation yet,” Malaney said.

The supervisor cautioned the Peebles is not a done deal.

“I try not to get too exuberant until it’s official,” she said.

Stage Stores, Inc. is in discussions that could lead to the opening of a Peebles in Ticonderoga. The former Grand Union building has been mentioned as a possible location.

“I recall them looking at Ti about six years ago and recently heard they were looking at us again, but have not heard of any formal commitments.

“Peebles has about 800 stores in small towns and communities throughout the U.S.,” Malaney said. “They would be an excellent fit for Ti and the market area we serve and we would be very happy to have them open here.”

Increase sensitivity to women’s issues

I

sat quietly in the dark, tears streaming down my face as her voice whispered in the blackness.

Her grandfather sexually abused her since she was a little girl. Today, when peers talk about losing their virginity, she lies.

But I was not mourning her, because, as she told her story for the first time, she took that giant leap from victim to acknowledged survivor. She was ready to live.

A large crowd of mostly women, and some men, packed the second floor ballroom of Plattsburgh State’s Angell College Center for Take Back the Night. Take Back the Night is an international event, as people gather and take to the streets to raise awareness about violence against women, share stories, some for the first time, and heal and grow as survivors.

Plattsburgh State students and their supporters were unable to hold the march in the streets this year. Plattsburgh’s Common Council approved it, but restricted it to the sidewalks, citing safety concerns and saying they never approved it for the streets in the past, although that is where it has taken place in the past, and with the assistance of local law enforcement.

I believe the group should have been allowed to march in the streets.

Women experience roughly 4.8 million intimate partner related physical assaults and rapes yearly, according to the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control.

In 2006, 232,960 women in the United States were raped or sexually assaulted, according to the National Crime Victimization Survey. That’s more than 600 women daily.

A survey conducted by the CDC in 2010 found that one in five women has been raped or has experienced an attempted rape, while one in six has been stalked and one in four has been beaten by their intimate partner.

Besides the horrific examples of abuse, there is a glaring societal tragedy occurring in the North Country in terms of enabling and ignorance.

Therapy Night Club and Sport Lounge hosted a Girls Gone Wild event last year, a clear example of the objectification of women and perverse glorification of a model of women too many young girls have damaged themselves physically and emotionally to mimic. Despite these realities, many in the North Country defended Girls Gone Wild and reverted to misogynistic cave-man like behavior, joking and commenting on the scantily clad women in ways some find acceptable, funny and harmless.

Meanwhile, a young woman walks down the street, minding her own business as a group of men cat-call and objectify her.

That’s wrong for any woman to endure, but imagine if that woman had been victimized in the past and has difficulty walking by men, let alone ones who treat her like a meal.

Or, while some so-called adults make light of Girls Gone Wild posters, a young woman has locked herself in the bathroom and is making herself vomit so she can lose weight and fit into a bikini the way the media says she should.

Also sad is that city officials said last year’s police presence assisting Take Back the Night marchers was because the event coincided with Girls Gone Wild, which drew a big crowd. So I guess to garner support for a group working to save women’s lives you need to schedule alongside one that objectifies women.

Take Back the Night is needed and should have been allowed in the streets, because the situation is dire. Plus, those who shared their tragic stories were healing, and what an uplifting way to do it, taking to the streets, declaring your strength and demanding your safety.

I recall the first time I shared I had been sexually abused. How strong I would have felt to march in the streets beside survivors.

Further reasons it is an important event and should be held in the streets were the insensitive and ignorant comments made by the public through media outlets in response to local news articles. They clearly speak from the privilege of never enduring such pain and brutalization.

I recall one individual writing that Take Back the Night could be held in the streets as long as it didn’t make him late for dinner. It would do such individuals good to stop for such a march, get out of their vehicles, pay attention and take time out of their privileged days to listen to some stories of survivors.

Another comment has been made that by not marching on the sidewalk, or possibly choosing another route, and opting instead to hold Take Back the Night inside, the women were basically cry babies and sore losers.

I don’t know whether their decision was right or wrong. But I do know the men and women I saw that night were powerful and were not going to let men dictate how they held their celebration. They were bold and brilliant survivors living life on their terms.

RSVP volunteers lauded To the Times of Ti:

Schroon budget meets tax cap To the Times of Ti:

During National Volunteer Week, Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) of Essex & Clinton Counties would like to thank the 700 women and men who serve our communities all year-long. As a tribute to the value of the volunteers who serve our programs, President Obama personally thanked RSVP members in a conference phone call.

RSVP volunteers helped hundreds of people file income taxes at the AARP tax sites in Essex and Clinton Counties, fed dozens of families at the Jay shelter during Hurricane Irene, manned numerous food pantries and opened a new thrift shop in Plattsburgh, to name a few of the many things they’ve recently done.

RSVP is a membership organization which invites people age 55 and over to volunteer with our local nonprofit organizations, schools, and hospitals. We match the volunteer's experience, talents and interests with a placement that's right for them.

Thank you again RSVP volunteers, for getting the job done.

Where there’s a need, you are there!

BarbBrassard, director Kate Gardner, coordinator RSVP of Essex & Clinton Counties Port Henry

Tax program aids local people To the Times of Ti: Many thanks to the Times of Ti for letting local taxpayers know that free tax preparation assistance has been available again this year.

The local AARP Tax Aide program, sponsored locally by the Hague Chamber of Commerce, has helped friends and neighbors in Hague, Ticonderoga and surrounding towns and villages with 2011 tax returns.

Thanks, too, to the local volunteers who make this service available to our community. We look forward to seeing you again next year.

On April 4, 2012, the Schroon Lake Central School Board of Education adopted a school budget in the amount of $7,243,314.00. This reflects a decrease in spending of $159,065 compared to the current 2011-2012 budget. In addition, based on a recent New York State Comptroller ’s Office audit, the district’s maximum allowable tax levy is set at 2.99 percent. The district budget levy for 2012-2013 presented to the voters will be 2.97 percent, slightly below the allowable district levy tax cap.

As superintendent, I am pleased with the work the board of education, administrative team, faculty and staff has done this year to help put forth a very reasonable and fiscally responsible school budget. We listened to our community and went back into our anticipated revenue figures to determine how we could meet the board of education adopted expenditure budget and stay below the allowable tax cap. We have done that and will present a budget that is both lower in spending and below the tax cap.

The Schroon Lake Teachers Association agreed to forego their contractual 2 percent pay increase for all non-reduced members. This good faith gesture certainly helped us balance our budget for the upcoming year. Likewise, all district employees have switched insurance plans, a move that should save the district insurance premium costs over time.

The staffing reductions included in the 2012-2013 school budget are primarily due to decreased student enrollment.

A new master teaching schedule no longer has students in grades 7-9 separating into two sections. This realignment helps keep program offerings intact while maintaining very reasonable class sizes.

The board of education-approved budget below the tax cap requires only a majority vote for approval. There was additional information available for voters at the board of education meeting on April 26 at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. In addition, the district budget brochure as well as information pertaining to the bus purchase proposal will be available on the school district website at www.schroonschool.org If you have any questions about the school budget or anything related to Schroon Lake Central School please feel free to contact me at 532-7164 or at bfinnerty@schroonschool.org.

Health insurance a concern

To the Times of Ti: To the Times of Ti: In the editorial titled Horace Nye: It's Time to Sell the authors stated their "fear further dialogue in settings such as public hearings would be dominated by" employees voicing concerns. When a newspaper discourages free speech, civil discourse in the public arena and participation in government, we should all be concerned.

On Dec. 5, 2011, an evening public meeting was held in Elizabethtown concerning the Essex County budget. Citizens supporting local farming, local business, local agencies and local libraries spoke. The Board of Supervisors listened and heard a primarily positive dialogue emphasizing the unique strength of Essex County. Let's have a public hearing about local health care at Horace Nye. Jeff Scott Lewis

The recent letter by Tom Allen of Ticonderoga makes sense and brings out two problems. The issue of what percentage of one’s health insurance cost should be borne by teachers and others has to be addressed.

Mr. Allen’s point showing what other districts as well as what the private sector pays shows a disparity with regard to Ticonderoga educators. Unfortunately what is occurring is a direct result of a health system that has been allowed to fleece the public in the name of “capitalism.”

As a former employer who tried to give my employees health coverage as a benefit, I can attest to the fact that the public is being fleeced! At one point my business paid the entire cost of health care insurance but as cost rose we had to cut benefits. When I retired we were requiring our employees to pay 50 percent of the cost for health care and this was several years ago.

Health care companies are reaping great profits while cutting expenses by denying care and raising co-pays. The Affordable Health Care Act, which most polls show Americans don’t want, has already helped curb cost by limiting what a person has to pay for drugs under Medicare. Those who are now covered by health plans as a benefit are first in line to say we don’t need our government involved in our health care. The Republican candidate for President Mitt Romney has made it clear that he will do everything in his power to remove the Affordable Health Care Act as well as disassemble Medicaid and Medicare.

If this occurs the $21,828 yearly cost for Ti teachers will surely double in a short time. Residents should remember that most educators continue to receive health benefits well beyond retirement and they are also reimbursed for the cost of Medicare taken from their Social Security income. Not only do they get Cadillac Health Plans while working and after retirement, but they also receive monthly stipends paid for by the taxpayer. Many who pay taxes in the Ti district are strapped by their own means of income and cost of health care.

Perhaps it is time for taxpayers to look to Patrick Henry for advice or, in this case, Tom Allen.

The GOP’s hot potato

By Glenn Scherer

T

hough some may find the forecast farfetched, global warming could prove fatal to the GOP this November – or in the near future. Why? A large majority of Americans now say unequivocally that the whiplash weather bringing drought, deluge and scorching heat mostly to Red States over the past two years, was intensified by global warming, according to a new study.

Meanwhile, Republican congressional hopefuls and Mitt Romney have hitched their election bids to climate change skepticism, siding with Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe who calls global warming “the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people.”

The American people however are now personally seeing that the hoax may all be on the climate change denier side. According to in-depth research by Yale and George Mason universities, by a margin of over 2 to 1 (52 percent vs. 22 percent), they say that U.S. weather – including heat waves, droughts and severe rainstorms – has been getting worse, rather than better, in recent years.

More importantly, Americans say extreme weather is adding to local hardships, including harm to crops (46 percent), damage from floods (39 percent), and problems with air quality (38 percent), forest fires (34 percent), water quality (31 percent), and transportation (23 percent), says the study.

This year ’s weather trends could further erode voter patience with the GOP. This March, the nation shattered over 15,000 heat records in a single month.

And more scorchers are likely on the way, with above normal temperatures predicted across most of the nation through November, says the U.S. Climate Prediction Center. Worse, nearly two thirds of the country – 39 states – is already experiencing drought this spring (usually a wet time), as we head into the dry dog days of summer, says the U.S. Drought Monitor.

These trends, if continued, could lead to an extreme summertime heat and drought emergency, making Republican candidates sweat out their electoral bids as they try to defend their belligerent climate change denial records.

Especially susceptible is their argument that global warming will cost more to fix long term, than the economic damage it is already doing. American commerce and communities were slammed with record economic losses due to weather disasters last year – including tornado-ravaged Joplin, Missouri and Tuscaloosa, Alabama, the decimated Texas cattle herds, millions of acres of drowned farmland along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, and the heat scorched Southern peanut crop.

The U.S. endured a jaw-dropping 14 major weather disasters in 2011, each costing $1 billion or more in damages, totaling $53 billion. Extreme weather is now increasing prices on everything from beef, to cotton clothing, and peanut butter. Add to that the tragic loss of human life, and the on-the-ground impacts of climate change are becoming hard for voters to ignore.

Of more concern to Republican candidates: About half of Americans (51 percent) now believe that extreme weather will cause a natural disaster in their own community in the next year, bringing loss of life, water shortages, wildfires, damage to crops and other hardships.

If the global warming public opinion pendulum swings decisively against Republicans in this election – or at the midterms or in 2016, it leaves the GOP with little maneuverability. With the party’s purse strings tightly tied to big oil, coal, and natural gas interests, the Grand Old Party cannot change its position on climate change without taking a huge hit to campaign coffers.

Strangely, the more climate change evidence has become irrefutable, the more Republican politicians have entrenched against it, and the shriller their position has become. With 97 percent of all scientists now saying that global warming is happening and human-caused, according to the National Academy of Sciences, and with the weather proving out that assertion, the die is cast.

It could prove a long hot summer – and century – for Red State Republicans heading home to campaign with constituents whose lives are being made miserable, and whose economic fortunes are being ruined, by scorching temperatures, drought, deluge, and waves of tornadoes.

Fort Ti initiates ‘Ambassador Pass’ Program will provide free admission to Ti residents

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga residents will again receive free admission to Fort Ticonderoga this season, but only after applying for an “Ambassador Pass.�

In past seasons local residents simply had to show a valid drivers license or other form of identification as proof of residency to gain admission to the fort. Now the “Ambassador Pass� will be required and must be obtained in advance of a visit. Children younger than age 18 will receive free admission with their parent’s pass.

The pass will give Ticonderoga residents free admission to the fort, special exhibits, interpretive programs, author series, re-enactments, King’s Garden, Discovery Gardens, the Heroic Corn Maze and more.

Fort Ticonderoga will open for the 2012 season May 18.

The pass will allow the fort to keep track of how many Ti residents actually visit. “The ‘Ambassador Pass’ program is an effort for the fort to better capture the information on who is visiting so that we can better communicate with Ticonderoga residents that enjoy the fort,� explained Beth Hill, Fort Ticonderoga executive director. “The more we are able to communicate with them, the more local residents will be able to understand the fort’s mission and be aware of our pro-

grams and plans. “This is pretty standard for the profession and similar destination pass programs,� she said. “We look forward to a great 2012 season.�

To secure an “Ambassador Pass� local residents should contact Fort Ticonderoga’s business office at 585-2821, go online at www.fortticonderoga.org/visit/hours to download the form, or Email info@fortticonderoga.org.

People who do not live in Ticonderoga can get free admission to Fort Ticonderoga by joining the Friends of Fort Ticonderoga.

Membership begins at $20 and includes free admission to Fort Ticonderoga, free or discounted admission to selected events and a subscription to Fort Ticonderoga’s “Haversack� newsletter. Information on the Friends of Fort Ticonderoga is available online at www.fortticonderoga.org/support.

Fort Ti officials believe the “Ambassador Pass� will allow them to establish a closer relationship with local residents. “Ticonderoga residents have such pride in Fort Ticonderoga’s history – our community’s story,� said Anne McDonald, Fort Ti board member and Ti resident. “We are excited to have the opportunity to build a strong Ambassador program that connects the fort and area residents in our effort to build a bright future for one of America’s most significant historic sites and in turn help revitalize our community’s economy through destination tourism.�

Sandy Morhouse, Fort Ticonderoga Association vice president and Ticonderoga resident, agreed.

“Fort Ticonderoga has so many wonderful programs and events scheduled for the 2012 season, making this special offer especially valuable,� he said. “This Ambassador program is a tangible reflection of the important partnership between the fort and the historic town in which it resides.�

In 2012 Fort Ticonderoga will unveil its new weapons exhibit “Bullets & Blades: The Weapons of America’s Colonial Wars and Revolution,� new programs and major special events. “Visitors will be immersed in the fort’s tumultuous events of 1775 through daily programs including the fort’s new historic trades initiative which will include shoemaking and military tailoring,� Hill

said.

The Fort Ticonderoga Association is the not-for-profit educational and cultural organization whose mission is to ensure that present and future generations learn from the struggles, sacrifices, and victories that shaped the nations of North America and changed world history.

Serving the public since 1909, Fort Ticonderoga attracts more than 70,000 visitors annually and is dedicated to the preservation and interpretation of Fort Ticonderoga’s history. The historic site and museum includes the restored fort, museum galleries, approximately 2,000 acres of land including the King’s Garden, Carillon Battlefield, Mount Defiance and the

northern end of Mount Independence.

Fort Ticonderoga is home to one of America’s largest collections of 18th-century military material culture and its research library contains nearly 14,000 published works focusing on the military history of northeastern North America and New France during the 18th century.

Approximately 60 percent of Fort Ticonderoga’s revenue is generated from Admission related income. The private not-for-profit organization is not funded by the local, state, or federal government.

Philanthropic support by individuals, corporations, and foundations benefits the educational mission of Fort Ticonderoga.

‘McTeacher Night’ returning Ti teachers to work at restaurant May 1

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Have you ever wanted to tell a teacher what to do?

Students — and others — will have a chance to do just that during the annual “McTeacher Night” in Ticonderoga Tuesday, May 1.

Ticonderoga Central School teachers will work at the local McDonald’s that night with all restaurant proceeds going to refurbish the kindergarten playground.

Teachers will be flipping burgers and cooking fries 4:30 to 7 p.m.

Scott Hearburg, owner of the Ticonderoga McDonald’s, has agreed to donate all profits from the “McTeacher” event to the playground fund.

“Scott has been a strong supporter of the

playground fund at the Ticonderoga Elementary School,” said John Bartlett, who is also active in the playground effort. “His goal for this night is to raise funds to help renovate the kindergarten playground located at the Ticonderoga Elementary School.”

This is the third annual “McTeacher Night.” Last year the event raise about $5,000 for the elementary school playground project, which is separate from the kindergarten playground.

“Teachers will be making French fries, hamburgers, frappes and McNuggets, etc.,” Bartlett said. “Teachers and school staff will work in the drive thru, clean tables, help prepare food, welcome customers, and will be doing it all for a great cause.

“It doesn’t matter if you prefer a Quarter Pounder or a Ranch Salad with Crispy Chicken, or a Frappe Mocha,” Bartlett said.

“Please come to McDonald’s in Ti on May 1 and support the local teachers and the young children of our community.”

The annual “McTeacher Night” in Ticonderoga will be held at McDonald’s Tuesday, May 1. Teachers will be flipping burgers and cooking fries 4:30 to 7 p.m. Preparing for the event are, from left, Kathy Moore, Shannon Huntington and Shelly Young.

Ti students attend DNA event Eighth Grade Class asked to study legal issue TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga Middle School’s eighth grade Living Environment Regents class attended a “DNA in the Courtroom” Minds On Workshop at the Queensbury Hotel recently.

The scenario was a hypothetical paternity case where two different individuals were suspected to have fathered a child. Students used restriction enzymes to “cut up” DNA into fragments. The students then used state-of-the-art technology to use micropipettes to transfer the DNA to gel plates that are used in the electrophoresis process.

Students had to run the tests and interpret the results to determine which individual could be ruled out as the suspected father.

Janet Mallon is the Ticonderoga teacher who led the class.

The workshop leaders were Alison and Richard Miller, both retired science teachers who were trained by Cornell University to conduct the workshop through Rensselaerville Institute.

“The information they got has very much prepared them for college level work,” Mallon said. “The workshop lab was designed at

Cornell University for use in undergraduate courses.”

Minds On offered the workshop to students in grades 9-12, AP students and accelerated courses. Mallon’s students are in an accelerated middle school science course.

“Other participating schools sent tenth graders and the Ticonderoga eighth graders more than held their own,” Mallon said.

“The awesome eighth grade Ticonderoga students that participated in the workshop were Brittany Bruce, Colvin Chapman, Jamie Cox, Brody Rocque, Aaron Russell, Tim Ryan, Sam Shelmidine, Mackenzie Strum, Ryan Trudeau, Susan Ward and Rachel White. Thanks also goes to Mrs. Tina Russell who drove one of the mini-vans and helped chaperone and photograph the event.”

Rensselaerville Institute has been running the challenging, high-energy, mind-stimulating, Minds On workshops for middle and high school students for over a decade.

This year the Stewart’s Foundation and the Lake Placid Education Foundation continued to monetarily support the Minds On Workshops.

Even with the support, Mallon’s students had to do considerable fundraising to pay for the $375 workshop fee, gas and associated costs.

250 committee to present concert TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga, the First 250 Years Committee, co-sponsored by the Ticonderoga Historical Society and the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum will present a family concert by Dave Ruch on “Traditional and Historical Songs of the Adirondacks.”

Free and open to the public, the event begins at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 4, at the Ticonderoga Community Building.

“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,” said June Curtis of the 250 committee. “Did you know we’ve got it right here in the Empire State, too?”

Ruch will present and tell the stories from days gone by through songs of real-life Adirondackers, farmers, lumbermen, children, housewives, lake sailors, canalers and more. The songs have been collected through research and interpreted with mandolin, octave mandolin, banjo, guitar, bones, spoons, washboard and jaw harp.

Equal parts historian, entertainer, educator, comedian and folklorist, Dave Ruch finds his song material in dusty archives, obscure songbooks, diaries, old recordings, scholarly journals and sometimes from his own children.

“Whether singing in the old unaccompanied style, or backing himself with great skill on many instruments, joyful songs combine with stories and humor to captivate audiences young and old,” Curtis said. “This will be a wonderful family event, so please mark your calendars now, gather the kids, invite the neighbors and plan to attend. It promises to be an exciting evening of great fun. Refreshments will be served.”

This event is made possible through Speakers in the Humanities, a program of the New York Council for the Humanities.

Speakers in the Humanities lectures are made possible with the support of the National Endowment for the Humanities, the New York State Legislature, and through funds from the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation.

The New York Council for the Humanities is a not-for-profit, independent affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Through statewide collaborations, and programs and services that encourage imaginative thinking and critical inquiry, the Council works to ensure that the humanities are present in the intellectual and cultural life of every New Yorker.

Schroon woman to address church women TICONDEROGA — The United Church Women of the Ticonderoga Area will hear Carol Van Gorp speak on “A Faith Response to Human Trafficking” at their special lunch meeting on May 4.

The event will be held at the Hot Biscuit Diner in Ticonderoga at 10:30 a.m. and conclude with luncheon.

Van Gorp is an executive secretary of International Ministries of the Women’s Division, United Methodist Women, serving in this capacity since 2007. Her work involves developing and maintaining international relationships in advocacy, missionary programming, grant funding, resource sharing, leadership training and UMW member interaction with partner organizations.

“The most meaningful aspect of this work with UMW is

to learn firsthand how the organizations vision and giving impacts so many lives around the world today, just as it has done for over 140 years,” Van Gorp said.

She is a graduate of Shenandoah University with a major in psychology and recreational therapy.

Prior to professional work with the United Methodist Church, she served the elderly residents of the former Moses Ludington Nursing Home as activities director for 15 years.

She is a resident of Schroon Lake.

Pictured at right: The United Church Women of the Ticonderoga Area will hear Carol Van Gorp speak on “A Faith Response to Human Trafficking” at their special lunch meeting on May 4 at the Hot Biscuit Diner in Ticonderoga at 10:30 a.m.

Ticonderoga from page 1 Other events scheduled to mark the new building include a mass causality incident drill at 10 a.m. and a free community barbecue with hot dogs and hamburgers following the ribbon cutting. There will also be a basket raffle and a 50-50 drawing.

The MCI drill will be coordinated with the Ticonderoga Emergency Squad, Ticonderoga Fire Department, Chilson Fire Department, Essex County Emergency Services and InterLakes Health as well as agencies from Schroon Lake, Crown Point, Hague and Moriah.

“Community members are invited to attend the celebration by watching the drill, attending the ribbon cutting and barbecue as well as participating in the raffles,”said mark Barber, Ti EMS captain. “We are extremely excited about our new facility and are looking forward to the community getting a chance to see it.”

Tours of the facility and ambulances will be available throughout the day.

The Ticonderoga Emergency Squad had been located in a small garage behind the Community Building since 1963. That building long-ago became too small for a modern ambulance corps. The location also caused concerns about emergency vehicles pulling into traffic.

The new building, constructed by D.L. Paige Construction, is 4,100 square feet with access from Champlain Avenue and The Portage.

“We think we have a great location here,” Rick Morse, squad president, said. “We’re very pleased with the way things have turned out.”

The new building is on the site of the old Ticonderoga Civic

Center and was sold to the ambulance squad in 2009 by the town of Ticonderoga.

The building includes two drive through bays, a meeting room, offices, kitchen, lounge and storage areas, Morse said. It also has a state-of-the-art propane heating system that automatically adjusts to weather conditions. It also has a generator

There will be a ribbon-cutting ceremony to formally open the new Ticonderoga Emergency Squad Building Saturday, May 12. The 1 p.m. ribbon cutting will be part of a day-long celebration planned by the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce.

so it can remain operational during power outages. The architect was Steve Jung of Schroon Lake.

The building project had a budget of $860,000 — $280,000 raised by the squad and a $600,000 loan.

The Ticonderoga Emergency Squad receives no taxpayer funding from Ticonderoga and operates strictly on donations, insurance billing and donations. Helping the squad financially was the sale of the former ambulance building to Lakeside Heating and Plumbing. That $68,000 will go toward the new mortgage payment, Morse said.

The Ticonderoga Emergency Squad has 30 members, including 12 basic emergency medical technicians, three critical care emergency medical technicians and one paramedic. It has three ambulances. The Ti squad is the only North Country unit with a “thumper,” an auto-pulse cardiopulmonary resuscitation device.

In 2011 the squad responded to 526 calls. That was a slow year, according to Captain Mark Barber. In 2010 the squad answered 620 calls. Only the Lake Placid Ambulance Squad, which has paid staff, answered more calls in Essex County last year, Barber said.

The ambulance crew also stands by at local events, like Ticonderoga High School football games, activities at Fort Ticonderoga, road races and community events.

The Ticonderoga Emergency Squad is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Barber explained members work four-hour shifts. Each member is required to work one shift a week as well as participate in training and fund raising efforts.

The Ticonderoga Emergency Squad was chartered in 1947.

The original ambulance was a funeral home hearse that was garaged at the north end of Champlain Avenue in the back of a bank.

Schroon teacher to discuss gorilla trek during May 4

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — A first-hand account of “Mzungus in the Mist” will be presented at Schroon Lake Central School.

The program, sponsored by the school’s National Honor Society, will feature teacher Cookie Barker Thursday, May 3, at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. Admission is a canned food item or a donation to the Schroon Lake Food Pantry.

Barker, a science teacher at the school, went on a gorilla trek in Rwanda in 2011.

The title of her presentation, “Mzungus in the Mist,” takes its name from the book and movie “Gorillas in the Mist.” Both tell the story of Dian Fossey, a scientist who went to Africa to study the vanishing mountain gorillas, and later fought to protect them. “Mzungus” is the Swahili word for a white person.

Barker went to Rwanda and spent two days hiking in the volcano national park area where Fossey studied gorillas. Barker ’s presentation will focus on ecotourism, gorilla trekking and Rwandan culture. She will

speak as well as offer photos and videos.

Barker has been a science teacher at Schroon Lake Central School for 20 years. In 1999 she won the state Outstanding Biology Teacher Award. In 2005 she took a sabbatical and went to Churchill Manitoba and spent time researching polar bear behavior. In the summer of 2007 went to Peruvian Amazon on a three-week biodiversity expedition.

Fossey was an American zoologist who studied gorilla groups over a period of 18 years in the mountain forests of Rwanda. She was murdered in 1985.

Fossey, along with Jane Goodall and Birutò Galdikas are considered the world’s most prominent researchers on primates. Fossey studied gorillas, Goodall chimpanzees and Galdikas orangutans.

When her photograph appeared on the cover of National Geographic Magazine in January 1970, Fossey became an international celebrity, bringing publicity to her cause of saving the mountain gorilla from extinction, as well as convincing the general public that gorillas are not as fierce as they are sometimes depicted in movies and books.

“Mzungus in the Mist” will be presented at Schroon Lake Central School. The program, sponsored by the school’s National Honor Society, will feature teacher Cookie Barker Thursday, May 3, at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. Admission is a canned food item or a donation to the Schroon Lake Food Pantry.

PORT HENRY — Bunny Goodwin, master gardener, will present a program on home composting and growing soil at 6 p.m. at the Sherman Free Library in Port Henry. She will give tips on making and keeping a compost pile and how to improve soil.

It is free and open to the public, and light refreshments will be served. The presenter will be Christopher Breiseth, a recent retiree to Ticonderoga. He had a career as an historian, a college president and the president of the Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Institute at the FDR Presidential Library in Hyde Park.

SCHROON LAKE — After an at random audit of schools by the State Comptroller ’s office, it was determined that the new maximum allowable tax cap for Schroon Lake is 2.99 percent instead of the previously presented 2.94 percent.

That is good news for the district, whichwill now present a 2012-13 spending plan that falls within the state cap.

Superintendent of Schools, Bonnie Finnerty, said the new tax levy, along with the use of an additional $50,000 in fund balance and a slight increase in miscellaneous revenue, will allow the district to put forth a budget that includes a 2.97 percent tax levy increase over the 20112012 budget.

Staff from the Comptroller ’s Local Government and School Accountability unit visited school districts around the state to review their tax cap calculations.

Schroon Lake Central School Distrct was one of those districts, which led to the tax cap increase.

“As the result of our review, which will be detailed in a letter mailed to the district, we concluded that the district’s maximum allowable tax increase levy was actually 2.99 percent, which is different than the initial number arrived at by the district,” Kate Gurnett, deputy press secretary for the state Comptroller's Office wrote in an e-mail to Denton Publications.

The district budget levy for 2012-2013 to be presented to the voters at 2.97 percent, is slightly below the allowable district levy tax cap. Because the Board of Education approved budget falls below the tax cap it requires only a majority vote for approval. At the April 4 Board of Education meeting, board members voted to adopt the 2012-2013 budget totaling $7,243,314.

The difference between the 2012-2013 adopted budget and the current year budget is a decrease in spending of $159,065.

The amount to be raised by taxes in 2012-13 is $6,037,202, up from $5,862,870 in this year ’s budget.

Following the April 4 meeting, school officials were planning to put forth a tax levy increase of 3.99 percent — an amount that exceeded the state tax cap and would have required a 60 percent majority to pass. Instead, they will put forth the 2.97 percent increase, which will fall under the cap and require a simple majority to pass.

At the upcoming BOE meeting April 26, the board will provide additional information about the proposed budget changes, at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium, according to Finnerty.

Finnerty said in a press release she is pleased with the work the Board of Education, administrative team, faculty and staff has done this year to help put forth a very reasonable and fiscally responsible school budget.

“We listened to our community and went back into our anticipated revenue figures to determine how we could meet the BOE adopted expenditure budget and stay below the allowable tax cap. We have done that and will present a budget that is both lower in spending and below the tax cap,” Finnerty wrote.

Residents will go to the polls to vote on the budget on May 15, from noon to 8- p.m. in the school lobby. A budget hearing is scheduled for May 8 at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium.

If the budget does not pass, the board would have to construct another budget to put before voters and deeper cuts wwould most likely be inevitable, school officials say.

If a second budget fails to pass the district would be forced to adopt a contingency budget including a flat, zero percent tax increase, resulting in significant cuts to programs, staff and extra-curricular activities.

For more information on the revised budget, the district budget brochure will be available on the school district website at www.schroonschool.org.
