fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The tentative 2012 Ticonderoga budget calls for the elimination of the community summer youth recreation program. The program serves about 100 children a year, offering arts and crafts, sports, swimming and other activities. It also provides daily breakfast and lunch through a Deb Malaney federal food program. That’s one of the cuts in a $4.9 million proposed spending plan that falls within the new state-imposed 2 percent tax cap. The plan is not final, and Ticonderoga officials want to know the public’s 2012 budget priorities. That’s why trustees will hold an informational meeting Tuesday, Oct. 25, at 6 p.m. in the Community Building auditorium. “It will be a casual, relaxed, informational meeting,” Supervisor Deb

State Comptroller finds fault with Crown Point clerk CROWN POINT — The Crown Point town clerk has been rebuked by the state. An audit by the state comptroller ’s office has found town clerk Linda Woods did not collect fees and make bank deposits in a timely fash-
ion. The audit also criticized the town board for not monitoring Woods’ activities. “The clerk did not collect Monitor Bay Campsite rents in accordance with town policy or deposit all clerk fees, licenses, and water and sewer collections within three business days after the total exceeded $250,” the audit finds. “In addition, she did not record or deposit real property taxes timely or remit them to the su-
pervisor in accordance with legal requirements. “Finally, the board did not audit the clerk’s records,” the audit continues. “As a result, taxpayers cannot be assured that all money collected by the clerk has been properly deposited and recorded and appropriately remitted.” Woods said the audit findings all relate to technical procedures. All money handled by the her office has

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Tiny Tim Christmas Wish Program enters a new decade with new leadership. The program, in its 31st year, is now directed by Nancy Quesnel. Quesnel replaced Helen Gibbs, who stepped down after the 2010 holiday season following 20 years with the program. “Helen was looking to pass the baton,” Quesnel said. “She put a lot of time and effort into the program; it was her baby. I’m honored she wanted me to take it over. “I’m not looking to change the program at all,” she continued. “It’s been successful for a long time and all the kinks were worked out long ago. We have checks and balances in place. It’s a good program.” Tiny Tim officials are already preparing for this Christmas. Tiny Tim Christmas Wish Program applications for needy children of the Ticonderoga Central School District, including Putnam and St. Mary’s schools, may be picked up at the Ticonderoga town offices in the Community Building on Montcalm Street. Completed forms should be mailed back to Quesnel, 151 Shore Airport Road, Ticonderoga, NY 12883 by Saturday, Nov. 5. Children ages 1 to 16 are eligible. Applicants must include a phone number to qualify. People who do not have a phone can list a relative, friend or neighbor. For further information, call 585-7017. Quesnel stressed the program is entirely confidential. After applications are verified, names are removed and families are assigned numbers, she said. People who purchase gifts buy
The Grinch won’t find unhappy children in the Ticonderoga area this holiday season thanks to the Tiny Tim Christmas Wish Program. for a specific number, not knowing who the child is. The confidential program decides who gets holiday help using the school’s free and reduced lunch income guidelines. Parents must complete applications. That application includes questions about the children in the homes, such as clothing sizes and gender. The Tiny Tim program started in 1980 when a group of Ticonderoga Central School teachers realized the need. The program grew to the point the teachers could no longer handle the demand. There have been a lot of changes during the years. Tiny Tim no longer accepts or distributes used items and gifts are no longer wrapped. And, Tiny Tim has grown. It started
out giving away winter coats. Now each child gets six pair of socks, six sets of underwear, a jacket, ski pants, boots, clothing and toys. Tiny Tim will not purchase any electronics such as iPods, cell phones, computers or game systems. Tiny Tim now serves about 75 families and nearly 200 children each holiday season. It costs more than $6,000 a year to operate the Tiny Tim program. While Gibbs has stepped down, Quesnel said the former director will remain involved. “Helen’s not off the hook; she’d better keep her phone line open,” Quesnel said. “I just can’t let 20-some years of knowledge walk way. She knows all the little tricks, the ins and outs. Her heart is still in it, and we want to involve Helen as much as we can.”

‘Wing War’ slated in Ticonderoga for Sunday By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga eateries will vie for supremacy this Sunday during the inaugural “Wing War.” The Knights of Columbus will host the competition at 2 p.m. to determine which Ti establishment makes the best chicken wings. “A lot of people eat wings; a lot of places in town make wings,” explained Rollin Slattery of the Knights. “Wings
• Furnace Cleanings • Camp Closings • Heating Installations
and pizza are a tradition on Sundays while people watch football. We thought we would combine all those things and see who makes the best wings in town.” People will be asked to make a $5 donation at the door, which will be given to the Ticonderoga Food Pantry. Once inside people can sample wings from Ti restaurants and vote on their choice for best wings. The wings will be labeled by number so people won’t know whose wings are being sampled. After tasting the competitors, people will have
an opportunity to cast ballots for the best. “Restaurants are free, encouraged, to bring as many of their supporters as they can to support them,” Slattery said. “The more people the better.” While the contest is in progress, the Knights will have National Football League games on their two big screen televisions. The Knights will also have their bar open and will be selling their own wings. “I think it’ll be a lot of fun and be interesting to see who wins,” Slattery said. “Who has the best wings in Ti? We’ll

see.” The Knights have invited Adam’s Rib, the Burleigh House, Emerald’s, House of Pizza, Ti Pi, the Carillon, the Wagon Wheel, Eddie’s, the Windchill, the Burgoyne Grill, the Fort View Inn and The Pub to compete. The “Wing War” has the added benefit of assisting the Ticonderoga Food Pantry, Slattery noted. “Anytime we can help the food pantry it’s a good thing,” he said. “The food pantry provides a must-needed service to the community and I’m glad we can help out.”

Charity begins with a free gift Campaign reform is a must
I
’ll never understand the art of fundraising or the skill of some individuals to successfully solicit donations. Take the many non-profit organizations that give you something for a specified donation amount—like a public T.V. station giving you a gift of a Michael Bernard Beckwith motivational DVD for your money pledge. Many years ago I donated a few dollars to a small, Catholic school in New Mexico. It was doing God’s work by helping provide an education and moral training to young Native American members of the church. I was happy to mail a check for a few dollars to show my support. I hoped my few bucks would at least cover the costs of the mailing appeal (targeted at me) with a little extra for the kids. In the coming months I received more mailings from the school: Pens, notepads, calendars, lapel pins, plastic glow-in-thedark crosses, prayer cards, personalized return address labels, and feathered medicine wheel wind chimes. Aside from the fact that all of this stuff was manufactured in China, not by the school children, I wondered why it was necessary to send me “free gifts” in the first place? Included with these free gifts were words of thanks and appeals to send more money. Of course I have no problem sending the school a few dollars a few times a year to help with its good works, but now I have a top desk drawer at home stuffed with “free gifts.” I have been handing out Pueblo notepads and wind chimes to friends while I place the prayer cards and the plastic glow-in-the-dark crosses in a small basket at the entrance of a local church. The local church, recognizing the same bounty of “free gifts” received by its parishioners donating to various church charities—yes, even my favorite Indian school—has a basket for churchgoers in which to clean out their desk drawers. In the little basket you’ll find unblessed rosaries, holy cards with pictures of saints, mini prayer books and yes, even a few of those plastic glow-in-the-dark crosses. Why is it that fundraisers feel folks won’t donate money if they don’t receive
something in return? Shouldn’t charity be a one-way street? Maybe charity does involve a little selfishness now and then—like the fact that giving something to those in need can make the giver feel good, even useful. But if giving is predicated only by what the giver receives, then I think we’ve missed the point. I don’t fault the Indian school for mailing me trinket wind chimes and ultra-thin notepads, but I do wonder why its fundraisers spend the school’s hard-to-find money for such manipulative trinkets? I know somewhere scientific data exists that shows that people are more likely to donate money to a non-profit organization or cause if they get something in return. But I’d like to believe that, perhaps naively, this just isn’t so—that people like me actually donate money or volunteer time for the simple joy of giving and sharing personal bounty with others. Even the idea that some donations to charities are tax deductible appears to turn the entire process into something like a tawdry business transaction. Perhaps this kind of reciprocity was always the foundation of charitable giving? Psychologists Anthony Pratkanis and Elliot Aronson, in their book titled “The Age of Propaganda: Everyday Use and Abuse of Persuasion,” write that “the norm of reciprocity is successful as a persuasion device because it directs our thoughts and carries its own motivation to act on those thoughts. We are directed to think ‘How can I repay my obligation?’ as opposed to ‘Is this a good deal?’ Our primary motivation is to avoid the uneasy feeling that comes from transgressing the norm.” So my obligation is to repay the receipt of notepads and glow-in-the-dark crosses? Admitting that Pratkanis and Aronson are likely correct in their assessment of the underlying motivations of reciprocity, it still doesn’t scratch the surface of why I personally feel good about sending a small Indian school in New Mexico a few dollars more.

Letters to the Editor Councilman backs Harrington To the Times of Ti: This is a recommendation to elect Charles Harrington to the position of Crown Point town supervisor. Charlie and I have been friends for many years. I consider Charlie very qualified. Several years ago when I was supervisor, Charlie ran against me. He conducted a very clean, honest, intelligent and fair campaign. Charlie is well qualified as he is now retired from teaching and has the time. He operates a greenhouse business so he has knowledge of finances. When our present supervisor took office two years ago with no experience, two members of the town board offered and tried to help her in any way we could to acquaint her with all functions of town government, her duties and obligations here in Crown Pint and in any other way we could as she was new to politics. She listened but always did it her way. One example was refusing to allow the assessor change to go to a public referendum. Unfortunately that even after two years in office the present supervisor has not changed her way of conducting town business and affairs. If elected Charlie will bring unity and expertise. He strongly believes in open government and the right to vote on important issues that come before the town board. If you feel that the present supervisor should be replaced then vote for Charlie Harrington in November. I know I will. It’s up to you! Use your right to vote. Charles Mazurowski Crown Point town councilman
Bullying is unacceptable To The Times of Ti: Last spring the Crown Point Central School had a talent show that was open to students of all ages and talents. It was a wonderful evening presenting everything from solo instrumentals and songs, group dance, ballroom dance, and comedic skits, to rappers. Included in the talent show was a power-point presentation by Miss (Laura) Uhly, the health and family consumer science teacher. It was a series of appearances by some very brave CPCS students who shared from their hearts how hurtful it was for them to be bullied by other students. Miss Uhly used this program to introduce a curriculum of antibullying that was to begin in the fall semester of this year. She also announced that CPCS will have a no bullying policy throughout the school. I think that these are excellent goals for the school to have. However, I believe that the learning and education of a child begins in the home, taught by their parents, and are perhaps the strongest lessons they will carry with them throughout life. It is difficult for me to imagine the success of an anti-bullying program being taught at the school when children return home to parents who are teaching them to bully others. Many adults in town have displayed huge painted signs calling people “stooges,” calling others “arrogant,” putting signs on the side of their trucks saying a certain person is “so ignorant.” There are Crown Point adults who write public letters saying that people are “communists,” “dictators” and “tyrants.” These are flagrant displays of bullying. I would like to include the Merriam-Webster definition of flagrant : conspicuously offensive; especially : so obviously inconsistent with what is right or proper as to appear to be a flouting of law or morality. These actions are coming from people who are teaching children and other adults that bullying is an acceptable behavior. I don’t think a school policy can nullify that damage. How can we expect children to act like adults when adults act like children? Laurie Harvey Crown Point
Coach deserved better To the Times of Ti: There are many more important issues we face today then the one I’m writing about. This issue however is important to a group of kids and a coach who have been together for many years. The coach, Dana Shaughnessy (my brother), has been involved with these kids since grade school sports. He has been coach of the Schroon (Lake Central School) varsity boys basketball team for several years. I’m not sure how many titles have been won, but I do know that they have been at the top or near every year. I do know he is well respected by most, including other coaches, referees, parents and players (past and present). Coach Shaughnessy has put in countless hours during the season and over the summers with AAU basketball. He spent a lot of the summer trucking kids all over the North Country even before his kids were old enough! Over the years he helped push kids to do well in school and stay out of trouble. Several past players, I witnessed, still stay in contact with him. He has been a major help to establish Schroon Lakes as a basketball powerhouse for past, present and future years! Schroon’s team this year is expected to be one of the best ever. There has always been the threat of Coach Shaughnessy (not a teacher) losing his job to a teacher. A couple of years ago, Schroon got a new physical education teacher, Mr. (Lee) Silvernail, most recently girls varsity basketball coach. Over the years (Silvernail) has repeatedly assured people, including players, Coach Shaughnessy and Mrs. (Mary Lou) Shaughnessy, who happens to be the school athletic direc-
tor, that he would not take boys varsity over. Just a month ago he told students he would not interfere. Then days later he put in his application to the board assuring himself the position. I truly hope that Mr. Silvernail isn’t abandoning the girls because they have become a rebuilding team and taking over the boys because the sky’s the limit for them. It can’t be salaries because they are the same. I hope that Mr. Silvernail wasn’t influenced by a board member who may have suggested he take over the team because her child (just moving up) and herself may not like coach Shaughnessy. Also Silvernail may have been reminded that he is new and tenure is coming down the road. Whatever the reason it’s caused a major disruption to a team that, up until several weeks ago, couldn’t wait for the season to start. Coach Shaughnessy and his team have worked so hard to get to this point. They have paid their dues and deserve to continue without this chaos. Mr. Silvernail, with all due respect, if you wish to abandon the girls team and take over the boys then do it right! Coach the boys JV, get to know them as basketball players and persons, grow with them. Don’t change something that isn’t broken or wants change. You will be a better person and will have much more satisfaction with results if you start from the beginning. Michael Shaughnessy Jr. Schroon Lake

Election Day basics
Combat Vets appreciative
To the Times of Ti: As Election Day approaches it is important for us to get back to the basics and remember where all the recent controversy started. The true issues have been lost of late. The facts have been blurred with the introduction of side issues. The issues are not about the number of assessors or the fairness of their assessments. Yes, there are issues about personal friendships, family relationships, vendettas, conflicts between personalities, innuendo and/or rumor. But the core issue is the loss of the most important and precious right we have as Americans — the right to vote on issues that directly affect us. There has not been an acceptable and legitimate reason given for the denial of that right up to this point that has satisfied all the citizens of Crown Point. That is a fact. The only other issue to be considered should be — are our tax dollars being used correctly and efficiently? There is documented evidence to show that almost $20,000 of our money has been wasted because of inappropriate actions taken by the present administration. That is a fact. We still do have the full right to vote on Nov. 8. Anger, controversy, chaos and turmoil are not a healthy environment for good government. If you want a change from that, please take the facts and only the facts into consideration and vote for the direction in which you want to see Crown Point go. Remember to vote for Harrington, Mazurowski and Peters. Again, we offer rides to those who need one. We’ll see you at the polls, friends. Harold and Nancy Spaulding Crown Point

Kosmider good for Crown Point To The Times of Ti: In the past two years, under the guidance of Supervisor Bethany Kosmider, the (Crown Point) town government and its process have been opened and the citizenry awakened. All of the following changes can be chalked to her scoreboard: 1- From town board meetings sparsely attended, to standing room only. 2- From decisions made behind closed doors, then voted on in the 15 minute public meeting before it was adjourned, to lively debates with questions to, and answers from our elected board. 3- From general apathy, to newly-formed committees. 4- From the same candidates running unopposed year after year, to more people running for open offices. 5- From a government that does not seem to care to one that works hard to find available grants and funds to fix our most pressing needs. She has shined light on things that have been buried for years! Sylviane Acker Crown Point
Safety check urged To the Times of Ti: The Hague firemen join other departments throughout the nation in encouraging all of our residents to check their homes and properties to be sure that everything is operating in a safe and secure manner. Now is a good time to check out holiday decorations before putting them up to make sure that no damage has occured while in storage. There were 12 fire and EMS calls in September including coverage brought about by Irene using 493 volunteer and 5 EMT hours. Daylight saving time falls back on Nov. 6. It's a good time to to change batteries in your smoke detectors and check CO detectors. Everyone have a happy and safe Halloween. I'll be thinking of you from a trout stream somewhere in Montana or points south. Joe McCranels Information Officer Hague Volunteer Fire Department
To the Times of Ti: As a taxpayer in the town of Ticonderoga I have a question I’d like answered. Why is the town of Ticonderoga cutting jobs on our police department? I work shift work and I hear on the scanner all night 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. the police being called to domestics, bar fights, down to the park where kids are smashing things up because they sneak out of their houses at 2 a.m. Then when things start to calm down they get called again. Maybe the town board needs to start working the midnight shift so they can see just how much our officers do. They want to cut jobs, why don’t they start at the Community Building? Why do we have to pay town taxes to one clerk and water and sewer to another? That job should be one. Eliminate one position there! Why do we need so many on the town board? Cut jobs there and why do we need more than one building code enforcer? There are plenty of other places to cut jobs. All they need to do is look around them! Leave our local police department alone! Kick the state troopers out of town and let our officers do the great job they are doing. Judy Barber Ticonderoga

said. Municipalities can exceed the 2 percent tax cap if four of five town board members agree. The 2 percent cap allows for a tax levy increase of $48,540 in the town’s general fund and $25,605 in the highway fund. Ticonderoga’s tentative budget calls for a 1 percent increase, $18,059, in the general fund and an 8 percent increase, $133,137, in the highway department. Combined, they total less than a 2 percent overall tax hike, Malaney said. Fire district budgets are part of the overall town budget, but are submitted by fire district commissioners. Town boards have no say on fire district budgets. The Chilson fire district has submitted a budget that calls for a 1 percent tax increase. The Ticonderoga fire district has not yet submitted its budget. The tentative budget contains personnel and pro(never known to fail). Oh most beautiful flower of Mt.

Gabriella Dedrick plays at the 2011Ticonderoga summer youth recreation program. The 2012 tentative Ticonderoga budget calls for the elimination of the summer program. gram cuts. It eliminates a police officer, a highway department employee, a sewer treatment plant worker, a landfill position and a janitorial job. It also cuts the afterschool youth program and eliminates the summer youth recreation program. The proposed budget calls for cutting back on the hours and days lifeguards will be at the town beach in 2012, as well. “The youth (after-school) program at the Armory has not been well attended for a long time,” Malaney said.
“This year we asked parents to help support the summer program and it still ended up losing money. “The immediate savings as projected is $15,000 in the youth budget and $62,000 for the summer program and beach program,” Malaney said. Malaney said the town will not adopt across the board budget cuts. “The goal is to retain as many services as possible, although many will be at a reduced level,” she said. “It’s bad financial practice to cut across the board. We nev-
er want to cut areas that generate revenues.” Malaney stressed the tentative budget is still subject to change. “The pending (Ticonderoga) fire department budget and other unknown financial factors are concerning,” the supervisor said. “Either could push the budget beyond the 2 percent cap.” The town must adopt a preliminary budget by Nov. 4. It will hold a public hearing on the budget plan Nov. 10 at 6 p.m. and must adopt the 2012 budget by Nov. 20.

Flashlight Nights slated at Fort Ti Oct. 21 and 22, 28 and 29

TICONDEROGA — Fort Ticonderoga will host Flashlight Nights on Fridays and Saturdays, Oct. 21 and 22 and Oct. 28 and 29, from 7 to 9 p.m. The program will uncover Fort Ticonderoga’s layers of history and haunted stories at night in the fort and in the six-acre corn maze. “Hear the story of Fort Ticonderoga inside the stone walls of the fort and then use your flashlight to guide your way to the ‘Heroic Corn Maze’ where a multitude of twists and turns through acres of corn stalks await,” said Beth Hill, Fort Ti executive director. The night-time tours of the fort will be led by costumed historic interpreters and will allow guests to enter areas of the fort where unexplained events have occurred. The tour offers historical context to the many ghostly stories that are part of Fort Ticonderoga’s history. If visitors have an even greater appetite for exploring Fort Ticonderoga at night, they can continue their tour as they find their way by flashlight to the “Heroic Maze,” a
six-acre corn maze located near the fort’s historic Garrison Garden. The maze offers visitors the opportunity to navigate through the six-acres of corn stalks at night. Fort Ticonderoga has a long and often violent history. Constructed in 1755, the fort was the scene of the bloodiest day of battle in American history prior to the Civil War when on July 8, 1758, nearly 2,000 British and Provincial soldiers were killed or wounded during a day-long battle attempting to capture the fort from the French army. During the American Revolution nearly 20 years later thousands of American soldiers died of sickness while defending the United States from British invasion from the north. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for children 12 years and younger. For tickets people can call 585-2821 or visit the Museum Store. Tickets will also be on sale at the gate. Gates will open at 6:30 p.m. and tours will begin at 7 p.m. The event will be held rain or shine. People are asked to bring their own flashlights. For more information go online at www.fortticonderoga.org/visit/heroicmaze.

Drug disposal event planned Oct. 29 in Ticonderoga TICONDEROGA — The Essex County Sherriff ’s department will partner with the Drug Enforcement Agency for Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, Oct 29, at six locations throughout Essex County. The event will be taking place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Kinney Drug, 7550 Court Street, Elizabethtown; Westport town hall, 22 Champlain Avenue; Chesterfield town hall, 1 Vine Street, Keeseville; Lake Placid Police Department, 2693 Mirror Lake Drive; and the Ticonderoga Police Department, 135 Burgoyne Road. Mark Johns, chief of police for Ticonderoga, said this will be the third prescription drop off the Ticonderoga Police Department has paired with the DEA in the past two years. Johns said the event has been well received by the community of Ticonderoga
and allows for people to dispose of their prescriptions, some of which could be considered a controlled substance, in a safe way. “We will accept anyone’s prescriptions, no questions asked, and then the prescriptions will be turned over to the DEA for destruction,” Johns said. The Prevention Team of Ticonderoga is helping to get information out to the public about the event and to educate residents about the dangers of prescriptions drug abuse. “The prevention team is working with law enforcement to get the word out,” Mac MacDevitt, community prevention coordinator, said. “The event is an opportunity to send a larger message about the growing dangers of Rx drug misuse and abuse for kids, teens, for adults and also for seniors. This includes accidental poisoning for little kids, and crimes committed to obtain drugs. Rx drug disposal is a problem statewide, especially for controlled substances.”
Stacia, Harry, Shannon and Skyler Barber enjoy breakfast at St. Mary’s School recently. The Ticonderoga school hosted a family breakfast.

Road tests may be in Oct. 9: The day the bridge was supposed to open Business as usual at Ticonderoga only construction site By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Those living in northern or central Essex County may have to drive for a while in order to take a driver ’s test. During the Oct. 17 Finance Committee meeting of the Essex County Board of Supervisors, County Clerk Joseph “Joe” Provoncha said that he had recently received word that the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles was looking to end road tests in Elizabethtown and Saranac Lake, along with nine other sites throughout the state. Instead, those looking to earn their driver ’s license would have to do so at the Ticonderoga satellite DMV office, the Malone DMV in Franklin County or the Plattsburgh DMV. “They want to take away the testing site in Elizabethtown, and the Ticonderoga site would stay because they do the Commercial Driver ’s License (CDL) testing there,” Provoncha said. “My concern is what happens to people who live in St. Armand or Bloomingdale; they now have to go to Malone or Plattsburgh.” Provoncha asked for, and received by unanimous second, a resolution of opposition to the elimination of the testing site from the committee, moving the resolution to the Ways and Means Committee. Several supervisors said that they agreed that the testing site should be located in a central location for county residents, with the county seat being the ideal location. “I don’t want to give up Ticonderoga either,” Provoncha said. “I would disagree with the state that the Elizabethtown site has a low volume of people coming in. Elizabethtown is where the main office for the DMV is, and it is also centrally located within the county.” “This is nothing against Ticonderoga, but if there is going only one testing site in Essex County, then it has to be at the county seat,” Jay Supervisor and Essex County Chairman Randall “Randy” Douglas said. “It has to be centralized. It doesn’t make sense.” “Elizabethtown is centrally located and I agree that is where the testing should be,” Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said. The Elizabethtown DMV would continue to administer the written portion of the New York State driver ’s test, but would no longer offer the driving portion if the plan goes into effect. Provoncha said that there has not been a timetable placed on the change, which the state said was being made to deal with numerous retirements within the driving inspector pool that were not being replaced. In a letter to Provoncha, the state also cited safety of examiners, low volume of examinations (under 900 scheduled tests annually), travel costs from an examiner ’s home station and lack of desirable elements as factors in making their decisions on what sites to close or leave open. The state DMV said that they were open to hearing feedback from the counties affected, but that their plan was to implement the changes over the next couple of months. DMV driving examination sites proposed for elimination include Elizabethtown (Essex); Saranac Lake (Franklin); Canton and Gouverneur (St. Lawrence); Salamanca (Cattaraugus); Delhi (Delaware); Bath and Hornell (Steuben); Ellenville (Ulster); and Lyons (Wayne).
County budget talks start By Keith Lobdell

andy@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Sunday, Oct. 9, 2011, was warm and sunny at the Lake Champlain Bridge. Despite a haze that almost washed out the view of Vermont’s Green Mountains to the east and New York’s Adirondack Mountains to the west, colorful foliage was plentiful and visitors streamed through this interstate destination during the busy Columbus Day weekend. But instead of traveling over the new bridge, motorists were still taking the free ferry from Crown Point to Chimney Point, Vt. This was the day the bridge was supposed to open, according to the original timeline set forth by Flatiron Construction, which is building the $69.6 million span. Construction was delayed by historic flooding in April and May, and the state Department of Transportation (DOT) gave Flatiron a 65-day extension to complete the bridge. The new deadline is Tuesday, Dec. 13, and incentives are in place for an early finish date, according DOT Executive Deputy Commissioner Stanley Gee, who gave a press conference Aug. 26 at the Crown Point State Historic Site. Flatiron will earn $30,000 for each day it completes the bridge before Dec. 13. Likewise, it will cost the company $30,000 for each day past Dec. 13. In the meantime, Oct. 9 was business as usual at the Lake Champlain Bridge construction site. Flatiron workers were busy, even on a Sunday during a holiday weekend, finishing a myriad of projects on the deck.
To do list On Oct. 7 the DOT issued a bridge construction update on its website, showing that Flatiron is still working on the Vermont and New York approach roadways, the guard rails, the open mesh pedestrian fencing, concrete pours to connect the precast deck and sidewalk panels, and finishing touches to the bridge’s lighting system. To secure the spaces between the 32 deck panels and all the sidewalk panels, Flatiron will be placing rebar between the precast panels for a series of small transverse concrete closure pours. In addition, they will connect the sidewalk panels to the deck panels with concrete “longitudinal closure” pours. After the completion of the deck and sidewalks, it’s time for the installation of
Volunteer Archie Rosenquist stands outside the Lake Champlain Information Center, located in the old tollhouse of the Lake Champlain Bridge, on Sunday, Oct. 9, 2011, the day the bridge was originally slated to open. Due to flooding in the spring, construction was delayed, and the contractor — Flatiron Construction — was given a 65-day extension to finish the bridge. The new deadline: Dec. 13, 2011. Photo by Andy Flynn curbing, bridge guard rails and pedestrian rails/fencing. Sidewalks have been placed on both sides of the bridge. Lighting will also be completed soon before the bridge opens. There will be standard navigation lighting, lighting within the pedestrian fence hand rail (to provide adequate lighting at the sidewalks) and aesthetic lighting highlighting the features of the arch.
Post-arch work To limit the weight of the Aug. 26 lift, the arch was placed without the concrete deck, connecting the 1.8 million pound, 402-foot arch with the New York and Vermont steel work. Since the lift, Flatiron has completed a number of projects on the Lake Champlain Bridge, focusing mainly on the concrete deck work. •The precast deck and sidewalk panels were installed. •The final concrete pour on the Vermont approach span was completed on Sept. 30. •The final concrete pour on the New York approach span was completed on Oct. 7. Precast deck and sidewalk panels were used to speed up the construction.
Information Center Archie Rosenquist was wearing his “Port Henry, N.Y. on Lake Champlain: Home of the Arch” T-shirt while volunteering at the Lake Champlain Information Center on Oct. 9. Located in the old bridge tollhouse (circa 1929), the information center distributes brochures for attractions in Vermont and New York and helps educate visitors about the lake’s history with interpretive panels.
Rosenquist lives in the Port HenryWestport area, and he has been volunteering at the information center for several years. He remembers when the tollhouse was renovated in the summer of 2009, the last summer the original Lake Champlain Bridge was open. “The day we got our certificate of occupancy, they closed the bridge,” Rosenquist said. That was Oct. 16, 2009. The bridge, which opened in 1929, was falling apart and deemed unsafe. By the end of the 2009, the bridge was blown up with explosives to make way for a modern replacement. In the summers of 2010 and 2011, Rosenquist has seen a decline in the number of visitors at the information center, even with the free ferry service, located between the center and the state campground. “The attendance hasn’t been much because of the construction,” Rosenquist said, adding that he’s seen more visitors from Vermont than New York. The information center is operated by the Lake Placid-Essex County Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Bridge opening DOT officials will not yet give an opening date for the bridge but said it would happen before 2012. The bridge celebration originally slated for Oct. 15-16, 2011, was postponed until May 19-20, 2012, due to the delay in construction. And to mark the second anniversary of the original bridge’s closure, the Lake Champlain Bridge Community held an event on Oct. 16 called “Almost a Bridge” Fundraiser & Gathering at the Crown Point State Historic Site.
keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County Budget Officer Thomas “Tom” Scozzafava said everyone should be ready for a budget that fits within the parameters of the state’s 2 percent tax cap. “We are going to present a budget with the 2 percent cap in place, so buckle your seatbelts,” said Scozzafava, who is also the town of Moriah supervisor. “The services that we have a whole lot of control over are the ones that are going to have to go. The mandate things that we do not have control over are going to have to stay. There is going to be a lot of pain with this budget and a lot of tough decisions.” During the Oct. 17 Finance Committee, meeting, members also discussed the need for a budget committee, which would look at the budget before revue by the full board. “I always considered the full board to be the committee, but the law says that the committee should be created,” County Manager Daniel Palmer said. “The thing is, if you have the full board as the committee, then have already acted on whatever the committee approves, in a sense.” “I would feel that the full board should be part of this committee,” Scozzafava said. “You should not have the full board as a committee that then reports back to the full board,” County Attorney Daniel Manning said. Willsboro Supervisor Edward “Ed” Hatch said that he felt it was vital to let the constituents know what portion of their taxes was going toward state-mandated programs and how little that left for other, non-mandated and non-funded programs. “I think that we really need to tell the people what the costs for these things are and then ask them what they want us to do,” Hatch said. Scozzafava said that, either way, his intention was to have a budget that was in-line with the state mandate. “It’s our intention to put together a budget that is at the 2 percent tax levy cap and you are going to see what is eliminated in this budget for 2012,” Scozzafava said. “We are all going to have a pet project that is going to be gone.”
Moriah PTA conducts membership drive Varying membership levels available PORT HENRY — The Moriah Central School Parent-Teacher Association held a membership drive, raffle and food giveaway during the annual school open house. With each paid membership that evening, the names were entered into a drawing for a $50 gift certificate to Mineville Oil Co., Inc., donated by Shelley Winters. A total of 20 members signed up during open house and were entered into the drawing. The winner of the certificate was Erica Riemersma of Moriah Center. Also at open house, for the second time, the PTA offered free hot dogs, juice,and water. By evening's end community members had been treated to nearly 200 hot dogs and 300 drinks. “We would like to say thank you to Shelley Winters for her generous donation, to all PTA members that helped at open house, to all new member signups and to community members for your attendance and continued support of our organization and your child’s school,” said Rose Rice, PTA corresponding secretary.

Moriah Center teen earns Eagle Ivan Budwick reaches milestone
By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com MORIAH CENTER — A Moriah Center teen has reached the pinnacle of scouting. Ivan Budwick received his Eagle Scout award during a court of honor Sept. 17. Budwick is a member of Boy Scout Troop 70 in Crown Point, the closest troop to his Moriah Center home. He is the son of Michelle and Donny Budwick. “It’s been a fun experience,” Budwick said of scouting. “I’ve liked all the camping, the summer camp. Our troop is very active and I’ve learned a lot from scouting.” Budwick credits Troop 70 Scoutmaster Steve Mildon and assistant scoutmasters Dave Hall, Chris Johnson and Ron Vezzi with making his six years as a scout positive. Each Eagle Scout candidate is required
to complete a community service project. Budwick built duck and bluebird houses that were erected around Penfield Pond in the Crown Point hamlet of Ironville. “Dave Hall had mentioned they (the Penfield Foundation) wanted bird houses around the pond,” Budwick said. “I thought it was a great idea. It was a good project.” A senior at Moriah Central School, Budwick is a member of the National Honor Society. He plans on attending college to study engineering or architecture. He’d also like to continue with scouting. “I hope to get into Venture Scouts (the next level after Boy Scouts), but I really don’t know what will happen when I get to college,” Budwick said. “I do know scouting has been very good for me.” Only 2 percent of Boy Scouts become Eagle Scouts. To become an Eagle a scout must earn at least 21 merit badges, demonstrate leadership in his troop, complete a community service project, take part in a scoutmaster conference and appear before an Eagle Scout board of review.
Police report: Moriah teens charged Two teenagers have been jailed after their arrest for burglarizing a Moriah bar. Daryk Budwick, 19, and Ryan LaMour, 18, both of Moriah, were arrested by Moriah police for felony third-degree burglary. Police said the pair went to the Old Mine in the hamlet of Moriah Center sometime late Sept. 26 or early Sept. 27 and used a ladder to climb in through a window. Budwick and LaMour took 20 to 30 bottles of liquor, two cases of beer and a quantity of pre-packaged food items, police said. Some of the stolen items were recovered. Budwick and LaMour were arraigned before Moriah Town Justice Brian Venne and sent to the Essex Country Jail when they couldn’t pay $1,500 cash bail or $3,000 bail bond each.
Ti man arrested
A Ticonderoga man was charged Oct. 13 with choking a relative and then, after he was arrested, with lunging at the local police chief in an effort to punch him, Ticonderoga police report. Police charged Daniel M. Harrison, 26, of 47 Racetrack Road, with two misdemeanors — unlawful imprisonment and criminal obstruction of breathing.

then sent to Essex County jail for lack of $2,500 bail, pending arraignment following the completion of a competency evaluation.
Felonies charged
Ticonderoga police charged a Syracuse man with two felonies after stopping him Oct. 13 on Wicker Street where, officers report, he was driving 63 mph in a 30 mph zone. Patrolman Dale Quesnel stopped James R. Gacek, 33, of Cleveland Road, Syracuse, and charged him with felony driving while intoxicated and felony aggravated unlicensed operation. The DWI charge was a felony because Gacek had a prior DWI conviction within the past 10 years, police said. He was processed and released with an Oct. 19 date in Ticonderoga Town Court.

phy entries. Some Moriah students were chosen to compete at the state level. An Award of Merit was given to Denali Rodriguez-Garnica from New York State PTA, for his literature entry, “Together We Can Help the Soldiers Win the War.”. Brenda Baker, Moriah Reflections chairwoman and PTA vice president, said, “The Reflections program is a national arts recognition program, open to all students pre-K through 12th grade, and through the Moriah PTA Reflections Program, students can submit their creative works inspired by a theme. “An arts education is important to the educational growth of children,” Baker said. “We are proud that our program has given hundreds of students a way to express themselves through the arts. This is our fifth year participating in the program. We were certainly excited and proud to have another winner on state level, and for the creative energy of all of our students.” Baker encouraged Moriah students to participate in the program. Registration forms are available in both elementary and high school offices. A Reflections Award ceremony will be held Nov. 17 in the high school cafeteria at 6 p.m.

CROWN POINT — The Lakes to Locks Passage announced a collaboration with National Geographic during its annual meeting recently. The project will highlight the historic, natural, recreational and cultural attractions along New York’s only All-American Road in the collection of America’s Byways. This project has created a cobranded website to promote Geotourism: tourism that contributes to the economic health of communities by enhancing the geographical character of a place — its environment, culture, aesthetics, heritage and the well-being of its residents. The Lakes to Locks Passage is headquartered in Crown Point. From the Lakes to Locks Passage Geotourism website www.lakestolocks.org people can pinpoint the region’s history, unique points of interest, ongoing events and outdoor activities along the wa-
terways. The website encourages national and international travelers to choose sustainable tourism experiences that are distinctive to the region. The National Geographic brand attracts visitors seeking the authenticity of people and places, traveling to several attractions throughout a vacation to truly experience a destination. Through this collaboration, Lakes to Locks Passage links established attractions to the special places hidden away in small communities. “It was a tremendous opportunity to join with the Board and staff of the Lakes to Locks Passage and discuss common interests and goals,” said Rep. Paul Tonko, NY-21 District. “Over the past decade, Lakes to Locks Passage has worked tirelessly to connect communities through their collective heritage, identity and geography. Bringing in a new partner with the esteem and prestige of National Geographic is a tremendous achievement for Lakes to Locks, and will certainly help to usher in a
Crown Point Continued from page 1 wondered if the audit was politically motivated. The audit found that while town policy requires all Monitor Bay camping fees be paid in two installments, Woods accepted partial payments. She also did not have signed contracts for seasonal campers on file. “Because the clerk did not maintain complete accounting records, it was difficult for her to adequately and effectively track payments and ensure that the campsite fees were paid timely and in full,” the audit reads. “The lack of adequate records kept on file for the seasonal rental of the sites may result in errors and irregularities occurring and not being detected in a timely manner and may also result in the loss of revenue for the town.” Woods said she accepted partial payments to help campers. “Most of them (campers) are on fixed incomes, so I accepted what they could pay at the time,” Woods said. “I thought I was helping out.” Since the release of the audit the town board has changed responsibility for collection of campsite fees. Those payments are now made to the supervisor ’s clerk. The audit also found Woods did not properly record the receipts for tax collections and did not deposit tax collections in a timely fashion. “This is a small office; I’m just one person,” Woods said. “At tax time it gets crazy in here. It’s very difficult to keep up. I did my best. I’ll continue to do my best.” Woods was also criticized for her record keeping and failing to deposit fees from licenses, dog licenses, campsite fees and oth-
new dimension of heritage tourism and sustainable development.” Joan McDonald, commissioner of the New York State Department of Transportation, said, “This type of partnership is a prime example of the innovative efforts that have made New York State’s Scenic Byways so successful. This significant collaborative effort will enhance the region's economic viability through advanced resource and tourism management efforts and public participation, and will serve as a state and national model as scenic byways and byway communities strive for sustainability.” Local residents and visitors are invited to continue nominating the landmarks, attractions, activities, events and local foods that define the region’s character and distinctive appeal. Online nominations at www.lakestolocks.org. are reviewed by National Geographic and representatives from the Lakes to Locks Passage prior to publication.
er money in a timely fashion. “The clerk’s failure to ensure that taxes, fees and rents are recorded and deposited accurately and timely may result in errors and irregularities occurring and not being detected and corrected in a timely manner,” according to the audit. Woods said all the findings relate to “procedures.” This is not the first time Woods has been criticized by state officials. “The clerk told us that, despite having held her position for approximately 25 years, she was not aware of the legal requirements for remitting the tax collections in a timely manner,” the audit reads. “The clerk has been in office for approximately 25 years. Previous audit reports that our office issued in 2000 and in 1993 contained findings similar to those addressed in this report about the same clerk. The board’s failure to correct the deficiencies in our prior two audit reports resulted in continuing problems for properly accounting for town moneys.” Woods said that after each audit she has made changes in her office and done her best to follow the state recommendations. She’ll do so again. “I’ll do the best I can to follow their recommendations,” Woods said. In the town’s official response to the comptroller ’s office, Supervisor Bethany Kosmider said the town board will pay closer attention to the town clerk in the future. Kosmider said the town board has requested that Woods provide the supervisor with a weekly report of all receipts and deposits. The board has also agreed to review the activities of the clerk’s office on a monthly basis and has asked for a full audit of the town clerk’s office for the past year. The state audit looked at the clerk’s office from Jan. 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011.
The Interested Taxpayers of Crown Point urge the Town Board to pass the Supervisor’s 2012 Proposed Budget.

Penfield to be haunted Halloween weekend By Fred Herbst
An Option for the Town of Hague
fred@denpubs.com IRONVILLE — The Penfield Museum will not be a place for the faint-of-heart Halloween weekend. The museum and Retro Film Studios will present the second annual “The Penfield Haunted Homestead” Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 28, 29 and 30. Jim Cawley, a Ticonderoga resident, will be joined by members of his film studio and volunteers for the event. They promise a “Hollywood-style” night of frightening fun. The “haunted homestead” will begin at dusk and continue until 11 p.m. each night. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for students. People will meet at the bonfire on the museum grounds and leave in groups to tour the Penfield house, barns and grounds. “The event was so successful last year that we have added an additional night of frights and will, of course, feature Hollywood-class effects, props and movie villains such as Freddy Krueger, Jason and

Michael Myers,” Cawley said. “Zombies, ghouls and vampires will abound. It is not for the faint-of-heart. “Last year it was so busy we had to turn people away,” he added. “That’s why we added another night.” Besides the additional night, a “Tiny Taste of Terror” has been added Saturday and Sunday for children. It will be 2 to 4:30 p.m. each day. The evening experience is considered too intense for children, Cawley said. “The ‘Tiny Taste of Terror’ will feature a trick or treat trail, costume judging and a very special magic show by Terry Morgan, a fabulous magician who worked for several years at Walt Disney's Magic King-
dom,” Cawley noted. Morgan started in magic at the age of 7 and he has been a professional magician for more than 40 years. He has performed at the Magic Castle in Hollywood and was hired by Walt Disney World to perform at The Magic Kingdom. Although he specializes in performing for children, he also performs at nightclubs and for many adult organizations. Cawley Entertainment Company and Retro Film Studios has years of production experience, having made several Star Trek movies and a Buck Rogers feature for distribution on the internet. Proceeds from the event will go to the Penfield Museum.
Earlier in the spring, Dan Belden, Town Supervisor asked me to run this November as Highway Superintendent. He felt that a change was needed in the management of the current Highway Department. Before his service as Town Supervisor, Dan served as Highway Superintendent for 20 years and understands the responsibilities and requirements of the office. He stated that I would make an excellent Superintendent as my integrity, leadership skills, budgeting and negotiation experience were all skills needed to strengthen our Highway Department.

Schroon chamber planning First Night
Christmas program sponsor sought
By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — Schroon Lake residents will have two opportunities to celebrate this holiday season. The annual Old Tyme Christmas celebration will again be held — with a new sponsor and new look — along with a First Night program Dec. 31. The Schroon Lake Chamber of Commerce has dropped sponsorship of the Christmas program after 25 years. Instead, the chamber to hold the First Night. “We’ve had a lot of requests for a First Night,” said Laura Donaldson, chamber president. “Our entire purpose is to help local businesses and we feel a First Night can be a boost. We hope the school will pick up the Christmas program. We’ll do everything we can to assist them, but we won’t sponsor the Christmas program.” Sharon Piper, co-chair of the First Night committee, echoed Donaldson’s comments. “This is not a case of either or, Schroon Lake will be able to enjoy both events,” Piper said. “The chamber will be the sponsor of First Night, but we’ll certainly help anyone involved with the Christmas program.” In the past the annual Christmas celebration included the Schroon Lake Central School winter concert, the lighting of the community Christmas tree, a Living Nativity walk down Main Street to Our Lady of Lourdes Church, the arrival of Santa at the Strand Theater, a Christmas movie at the Strand, local performers, a community sing-along at the Community Church, refreshments at the Schroon Lake Senior Center, children’s crafts and activities at the Towne Store and horse and carriage rides leaving from the Grand Union parking. The chamber held two First Night celebrations in the past — New Year’s Eve 2003 and 2004 — to mark the beginning and end of the town of Schroon’s bicentennial celebration. “Those First Nights were very successful,” Piper said. “People have asked for another First Night. You could say we’re bringing it back by popular demand.” First Night plans are not complete, but Piper said it will be a family-oriented event 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. To date the committee has booked magician Sylvia and Her Magic Trunk, the band Loose Connections and the Arts Bucket of Lake George, which will provide children’s activities. Piper hopes other events will be added. It’s hoped fireworks will be part of the First Night celebration, although the committee is still seeking funding for the pyrotechnics. Donaldson is confident people will enjoy the First Night celebration.

Moriah drops rainy, muddy game against Saranac; Ti falls to Peru By Keith Lobdell
Casland ran the ball 14 times for 91 yards and a score, and KJ Houle ran the ball three times for 31 yards. Curran was the only player to break the 100-yard plateau, rushing the ball 25 times for 106 yards for the Vikings. Ida had 68 yards rushing, but was taken out of the game due to injury. Both Burrell and Tesar said that they are pleased about their teams’ development throughout the year. “We want to be in a position where we are peaking in the playoffs, and we are trying to get there,” Burrell said. “Getting our running game going has been huge, and Matt has had some big runs for us and KJ has done some good things.” “We play Beekmantown to end the season, and they are a lot like Saranac,” Tesar said. “We are going to play the best defense that we can and get ready to roll for Tupper Lake in the playoffs.”
keith@denpubs.com The Saranac Chiefs again used big plays to jump out to an early lead en route to a 28-0 win against the Moriah Vikings Oct. 13, but those plays quickly became far and few between as the rain and Linney Field combined for a sloppy game. Only seven offensive plays in the game were for more than 10 yards, with the Chiefs scoring touchdowns on plays of 57 yards (Matt McCasland run) 44 yards (Ben Weightman run) and a touchdown pass from Weightman to Nate Bedell from 19-yards out. McCasland scored the first touchdown of the game on the Chiefs’ second play from scrimmage. On the ensuing Viking drive, Jordan Gillespie intercepted a third down pass and returned it 40 yards for a score, giving the Chiefs a 14-0 lead as the game would settle into a defensive struggle for the next two-plus quarters. “The defenses both came through and made some stops tonight,” Chiefs head coach Mark Burrell said. “Both teams had to play in the conditions we faced tonight, and they played really tough. The score did not show how close this game was. They were able to contain us in the middle of the game and a lot of our playbook was out with the conditions.” “We picked it up on both sides of the ball after they scored the interception touchdown,” Vikings head coach Don Tesar said. “We made some good defensive stands and we were able to move the ball on their defense on the ground.” The Vikings two longest runs, a 70-yard cutback run by Tom Ida and a 52-yard run by Jim Curran, put the Vikings into the red zone twice in the second quarter, but the team was unable to score off the opportunities. “Our defense was able to make the key plays when they got into the red zone,” Burrell said. “We helped ourselves out during that long scoring drought with those huge defensive plays.”

“You put those into the end zone, and you have a 14-14 score and you never know what happens then,” Tesar said. “They are a good team, and we are playing better as the year
has gone by.” Weightman finished 3-of-5 passing for 26 yards and the one scoring throw while running 10 times for 57 yards and a score. Mc-
Ticonderoga played perennial power Peru tough before falling, 20-14, in Northern Football Conference action Oct. 15. Ryan Borho gave the Sentinels a 6-0 lead in the first period, crashing into the end zone from a yard away. Peru knotted the contest on a 49-yard scoring pass late in the opening period and grabbed a 12-6 lead in the second quarter when Jeff Kurz ran to pay dirt from 12 yards out. Nate Lenhart broke free for a 66-yard TD run just 16 seconds into the second half for Ticonderoga. He then ran for the two-point conversion to give the Sentinels a 14-12 advantage. Peru answered, though, with a 34-yard TD pass from Taylor Rock to Mike Holdridge that proved to be the winning play. Lenhart had a big day for Ti, running for 118 yards. He also passed for 93 yards, a stunning total considering the Sentinels had only gained 76 yards in the air through seven games this season.

A season well completed L
ast Saturday, as the annual Trout Season came to an end, I set out in search of trout. Despite the fact that I had enjoyed a few good days of trout fishing over the course of the summer, by and large the trout season was a flop. Sure, I had some good days, but I never had a great day. The local waters just weren’t as productive as they’ve been in the past; despite the many flies, lies and lures I regularly utilized. Maybe it was the weather, the heavy rains, and the hot sun. It may also be that I’m losing my touch, or not paying the proper attention to detail. On both rivers and ponds, the water temperatures spiked early in the season, and they never really cooled off. On Saturday afternoon, despite the stiff winds and autumn’s chill; water temperatures on most of the local ponds and streams remained in the high 50s or low 60s. Even a cool rain had no effect, and I retreated from the ponds by the early afternoon, to finish the season on a little brook, that is scattered with beaver dams. My season finally came to an end, in the dim dusk of the late afternoon. I had managed to land just a single brookie, in six hours of steady angling. It was a handsome male, resplendent with a bright, crimson belly and a pronounced hook jaw. As I released the fish, and gently slipped it back into the stream, a flying wedge of Canada Geese flew over, just barely above the surrounding alders. The flyby, which resembled a squadron of F-15’s passing over a stadium, provided a most fitting conclusion to the Trout Season.
Change of seasons It was an abrupt change of seasons. Although the Muzzleloading Season for Big Game kicked off on the same day as trout season concluded, the weather was not too conducive to the hunt, with stiff winds blowing a steady driz-
zle of cold rain. It was not the type of day to keep your powder dry, or to find deer on the move, as the weather kept them down. This coming Saturday, Oct. 22, the Regular Deer Season kicks off, and pickups will again line the back roads, as hunters take to the woods in search of “Adirondack beef.” The annual Opening Day, will set the stage for a gradual changing of the guard, as hunters begin to replace hikers as the primary woodland travelers. As the transition occurs, it is important for both user groups to recognize the essential woodland courtesies necessary to safely and effectively “share the sandbox.” It is important that both groups be considerate, and respectful of each other. As a rule, most hunters attempt to avoid high traffic areas, where hikers can be found. Too often sportsmen get a ‘black eye’ due to the carelessness and poor behavior of a few individuals. The media does not report on the numerous safe and successful hunts that are conducted each season. Rather, we often hear about the few regrettable accidents that occur.
Safety in the woods Hikers should similarly make efforts to recognize, and avoid areas where hunters are obviously traveling. It is a time to keep dogs on the leash. It is not difficult to figure out if hunters are in the area. When there are a half dozen vehicle parked off the roadside, and the gun racks in the back windows are all empty; it might be a clue! You may want to consider taking a hike elsewhere. This is a time to be staying on the trails, to wear bright clothes and make your presence known. Despite the media’s propensity to sensationalize the dangers, hunting remains one of the safest of all recreational activities. Hunting is far safer than such dangerous activities as tennis, soccer, golf or cheerleading. It is an activity pursued annually by people who are safe, highly trained and who typically attempt to respect other users. Unfortunately, such efforts are not always reciprocated.
October 22, 2011
October trout Most hunting injuries are self-inflicted, and the majority involve tree stand accidents. Stand hunters should always use a safety harness. Hunters new to the sport should seek out experienced sportsmen to learn about the intricacies of the pursuit. It’s important to know all you can, about the animal, for on average, hunters/deer encounters typically last less than seven seconds. It is a very short time span for a hunter to determine if the deer has antlers, to consider the backstop and to raise the rifle and put the sights on the target. It is a most fleeting moment, often fueled by a rush of adrenaline. The window for error is wide open, since there are often trees, limbs, foliage and stumps to obscure the animal. Additionally, whitetails can run as fast as 36 mph, jump as high as 8 1/2 feet, and leap as far as 30 feet in a single bound. They can blend right into the landscape and disappear. It’s no wonder hunters are often left shaking, to consider the “what ifs,” as another ‘Ghost of the North Woods’ bounds off into the distance.

New York State DEC adopts deer management plan Plan will guide deer management for five years ALBANY — The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) officials Oct. 17 announced that they have adopted a five-year deer management plan. The final plan, which has been revised based on public comment on a previously released draft version, is now available at www.dec.ny.gov/animals/7211.html. “White-tailed deer are an important and valued natural resource for New Yorkers,” Commissioner Joe Martens said. “DEC’s new deer management plan provides strategic direction for our staff over the next five years and will help us focus our efforts where they can best meet the biological and social demands associated with deer. This plan emphasizes the importance of hunting for deer management, and we are particularly excited to create new opportunities for young deer hunters,” Martens said. “We are also cognizant of the significant ecological impacts associated with deer, and we are eager to more fully bring our knowledge of these impacts into the population management process.” The plan describes six primary goals that encompass the current priorities for deer management and the values and issues expressed by the public: •Manage deer populations at levels that are appropriate for human and ecological concerns; •Promote and enhance deer hunting as an important recreational activity, tradition, and population management tool in New York; •Reduce negative impacts caused by deer; •Foster public understanding and communication about deer ecology, deer management, economic aspects and recreational opportunities; •Manage deer to promote healthy and sustainable forests and enhance habitat conservation efforts to benefit deer and other

species; and •Ensure that the necessary resources are available to support sound management of white-tailed deer in New York. Public comment on the draft deer management plan was reviewed by the Department, and several notable changes were made in the adopted plan, including: •Changing to a five-year cycle for evaluating deer population objectives; •DEC removed the proposal to completely discontinue either-sex and antlerless-only tags; DEC is committing to implementing a youth deer hunting opportunity. Details re-
lated to timing and structure of a youth hunt have been removed from the plan so as to allow continued discussion to identify the most appropriate option; and DEC clarified that a special antlerlessonly season for muzzleloader hunters will only occur as the 3rd phase of a multi-phase process, and only in WMUs where additional doe harvest is needed. DEC intends to begin implementing strategies of the deer plan immediately. While many strategies will take several years to develop, DEC expects to begin rulemaking to implement a number of huntingrelated aspects of this plan prior to the 2012-
13 hunting seasons, including: •Establishing a youth deer hunt; •Starting the Southern Zone bow season Oct. 1; •Allowing DMPs to be used during the bow and early muzzleloader season in the Northern Zone; and •Expanding mandatory antler restrictions into 7 WMUs in southeastern New York. DEC strives to provide a deer management program that balances diverse public interests and values with the biological needs and ecological relationships of deer, for the benefit of New York’s white-tailed deer herd and the people of New York.

Alzheimer’s Disease & Difficult Behavior Tips That May Help Minimize hiding places. Lock unused closets or doors. For persons who are still able to read, put up signs that say “NO” or “STOP” where you don’t want them to go. Learn where the person tends to hide things. Limit valuable or cash within reach. Keep junk mail to a minimum. Arrange for bills to be sent to someone else for payment. Remove nonessentials, like out-of-season clothing. Understand coping mechanisms. Some people with dementia may keep belongings, including clothing, out in the open, so they know where they are. This may help them continue to function in the early or middle stages of the disease. They may be willing to put their belongings away if large signs on drawers, such as “Shirts,” help them find their possessions. Fill a drawer with “odds and ends” for the person to rummage through. Check wastebaskets for “lost” items before they are emptied. Keep duplicates of important items such as glasses, keys, etc. Remove discarded items immediately. If you are removing items from the person’s home, do so immediately. Otherwise, he may rummage through The garbage and bring them back into the house.
Older Adults And Alcohol Use You may not think twice about having a drink now and then as you get older. But alcohol can be a serious problem for older adults, especially if you take certain medications, have health problems or don’t control your drinking. Aging lowers the body’s tolerance for alcohol, so older adults can develop problems even though their drinking habits haven’t changed. “Older adults can experience the effects of alcohol, such as slurred speech and lack of coordination, more quickly than when they were younger,” says Dr. Kenneth R. Warren, acting director of NIH’s National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. Drinking too much alcohol can also make many health conditions worse. These include diabetes, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, liver problems, memory problems and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety.
