town,” said Trip Shannon, HHHN chief development officer. “It’s been in the best interests of both parties.”

Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava agrees.

“It’s been a good partnership,” Scozzafava said. “They’ve made a commitment to the town of Moriah and we’d like to continue our commitment to them.”

That’s why the town and health care agency have started preliminary talks about extending Hudson Headwaters’ lease at the town-owned health center.

At that time the town and HHHN entered into a five-year agreement to provide health care and staffing at the facility. That deal, which expires in 2013, made the town responsible for all maintenance at the health center.

During the 2013 town budget preparation, Scozzafava approached HHHN asking for help with maintenance costs. HHHN agreed to pay CONTINUED ON PAGE 15

“The committee will investigate the pros and cons of a merger, prepare a report and advise the two school boards.”

The committee will include five community members, two teachers, a member of the support staff and an administrator from each district.

Interested community members are asked to contact their school superintendent before Dec. 21. McDonald can be reached at 585-7400 or jmcdonald@ticonderogak12.org. Crown Point Superintendent Shari Brannock can be reached at 597-4200 or brannock@cpcsteam.org.

Ticonderoga meets tax cap; town taxes will increase 2 percent

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga has adopted a $5.5 million town budget for 2013 that meets the state’s 2 percent tax cap.

The 2013 spending plan totals $5,573,865. That’s a $422,553 in-

crease — 8.2 percent — from the current budget of $5,151,312.

The tax levy in the 2013 budget is $4,282,090. That’s an increase of $117,248 from the present tax levy of $4,164,842. That’s a 2.8 percent tax hike, although it meets the state’s 2 percent tax cap when exemptions are removed.

The 2013 tax rate is estimated to be $8.07 per $1,000 of assessed value in the Ticonderoga Fire District, up 41 cents, and $8.39 in the

22964

Chilson Fire District, a 42-cent increase.

“I’m satisfied,” Supervisor Deb Malaney said of the budget. “Our fixed costs have gone up 10 percent or more — health insurance, retirement, fuel — and we were able to come in under the cap.”

The town is using $78,000 in fund balance to meet the tax cap.

That’s a concern for Malaney.

“We have to keep using fund balance (to meet the tax cap),” Malaney said. “When the fund balance is gone people will have to make some difficult choices. We’ll have to either reduce services to people or raise taxes.”

The largest spending increases in 2013 will be in the town highway department and in building maintenance.

Highway spending will go from $1,653,799 to $1,785,618 in 2013, an increase of $131,819. The increase is attributed to higher asphalt costs, rental of paving equipment and line striping of roads. The department will also purchase a new truck and other equipment.

Building maintenance spending will go from $191,720 this year to $295,0993 in 2013 to cover repairs, fuel costs and improvements.

“We need to focus on our historic buildings and facilities,” Malaney said. “We’ve created a reserve fund for upkeep and muchneeded repairs.”

The community beautification budget will increase from $45,631 to $67,906 next year to cover an additional staff person for buildings and grounds and some special projects.

The Ticonderoga Fire District tax levy, which is determined by the board of fire commissioners and submitted to the town board for inclusion in the budget, is $345,680, up 6.8 percent, or about $22,090, and exceeded the state cap. Commissioners voted to override the state tax cap.

The Chilson Fire District stayed within the cap at a levy of RATHBUN JEWELERS HOLIDAY SALE CONTINUES $44,758.

Water and sewer fees in 2013 20% OFF JEWELRY & MOST GIFTS OVER $25 will increase $10 a year.

The 2013 budget also includes 2 percent pay increases for all town employees and elected officials. It’s the first pay hike in Selected Gold Rings, Charms, Earrings & More! three years for Ti’s workers.

There are no personnel cuts in the spending plan.

“We’re well-positioned for 2013 because of actions taken in earlier years,” Malaney said.

“We offered an early retirement package last year and we’re Downtown Ticonderoga • (518) 585-2244 downsizing employees through Open Every Day Through December 24th • M-F 10-7 • Sat & Sun 10-5 attrition. We’ve also made other cuts that have saved money.”

Winter clothing available in Ti Alliance offering free items

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A winter clothing swap in Ticonderoga is now a give-away.

The Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance’s “Jacket & Coat Swap with Santa” Dec. 7 and 8 generated so much winter clothing, it will be continued as a free service.

People can get free clothing Saturday, Dec. 15, and Saturday, Dec. 22, noon to 3 p.m. at the Downtown Gallery on Montcalm Street.

“Anyone is welcome to come in and take any clothing items needed without making a clothing donation,” said Chattie VanWert, alliance director. “We have a wide assortment of men’s and women’s jackets and fleeces along with many random clothing items for kids.

“Please enter through the downtown gallery and help yourself to anything that fits to keep you warm this winter,” she said.

The alliance had asked the community for donations to help people find warm clothing this winter. The response exceeded expectations.

So many items were donated some of the clothing is being sent to the New York-New Jersey area to assist victims of Super Storm Sandy.

“Due to an extraordinary amount of clothing donations, the alliance clothing exchange will be open for the next two Saturdays from noon to 3 p.m. in the space next to the downtown gallery,” VanWert said.

“Special thanks goes to the Ticonderoga community for their generous donations during this past weekend’s swap,” she said. “The donated clothing is already in New York and New Jersey and will soon be in the hands of families who suffered huge losses during Hurricane Sandy.”

TICONDEROGA — After almost four years of discussion and debate, it appears that Ticonderoga will finally update its zoning regulations in 2013.

“I’m confident it’ll happen in 2013,” Supervisor Deb Malaney said recently.

A committee reviewing proposed changes to the town zoning law has completed its work and is expected to present its findings to the town board in December. That report will then be sent to consultant Brandy Saxton of PlaceSense in Port Henry for further review. The town board is expected to take action early in 2013 following a public hearing.

Action was expected in 2010, but despite a series of public meetings many residents objected to the planned zoning changes claiming they hadn’t had a chance to be involved in the process. That led the town board to appoint a committee to further study proposed zoning changes.

“That won’t happen again,” Malaney said of the delay.

“Any time you talk about zoning it’s controversial. It affects people’s property and they’re rightfully protective of their property.

“This has been a thorough process,” she added. “We’ve tried to address all the specific concerns raised by residents.

We took a second look and in the end we have a more flexible, more business-friendly zoning law. It’s responsible and fair.”

Malaney stressed the zoning changes will have no impact on any existing structures. All present Ticonderoga properties will be grandfathered under the new law.

The existing Ticonderoga zoning law is 30 years old, Malaney said. It has been amended 20 times. In 2009 a residents committee, with the help of Saxton, began a complete review of the law.

“The existing zoning law is at a point where, in some areas, it contradicts itself and leaves the town open to legal challenges,” Malaney said. “A revision of the zoning law is also part of our comprehensive plan and has been requested by many businesspeople.”

Saxton pointed out the public has been invited to participate throughout the process. There was a town-wide mailing in June 2010 to notify residents about the project and opportunities to have input on the changes being drafted.

There were nine public information meetings and throughout the process drafts were posted online and available for review at the town office.

Malaney and Saxton agree the proposed revised zoning plan will have little affect on most people.

“There are no radical changes in the existing zoning law,” Malaney said. “It creates a blueprint for sensible, future growth.”

The proposed zoning changes focus on three keys areas, according to Saxton — commercial property, downtown and lakefront properties.

The proposed law is available at the town clerk’s office as well as online at www.townofticonderoga.org.

Essex County’s own fiscal cliff Don’t worry, be happy

T

he latest estimate of the world’s demise has humanity’s fate sealed on Dec. 21, the Winter Solstice. If we manage to survive, historians will no doubt write about how we avoided certain doom only to face another, equally apocalyptic threat—the dreaded fiscal cliff. Yes, we might finally see the culmination of our elected official’s inability to accomplish anything of benefit to the rest of us, and it all seems so surreal, so distant, so beyond our control.

But there is a way to get closer to the action, and all it takes is a trip to Essex County, home of the North Country’s own fiscal cliff debacle.

Essex County’s fiscal cliff is not quite of the same magnitude as its big brother, but its proceedings do reflect a similar indecisive bickering that has been playing out at the national level. There are a lot of numbers and figures and percentages involved, but the bottom line is, if the Essex County board fails to start thinking ahead, things could become much worse in the upcoming years, regardless of who’s in charge.

Essex County Manager Dan Palmer knows this, and he has officially removed himself from the equation as of Jan. 1. His announcement to retire came after he failed to convince county supervisors to accept a 3-year budget plan, and he isn’t going out without a few parting words. Palmer has warned the board that its current course, which will likely see the wounded budget haphazardly stitched together by the fund balance, is a dangerous one at best.

Here’s how it works: Essex County collects taxes from its citizens and uses that money to pay for all kinds of services.

There are things that have a known budget, like money allotted to pay county employees salaries, and there are things that are budgeted for, like road work, that might come in under that budget. The unused tax money is the fund balance, and it is particularly good for dealing with emergencies, such as the spring storm of 2011 and damage incurred by Tropical Storm Irene, which depleted the fund balance by $2.8 million last year.

Essex County’s current course will see it utilizing that fund balance money to the tune of about $7 million to balance the county budget and meet the tax cap. The $2.8 million that went toward post-Irene re-

pairs is eventually supposed to be repaid by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, but it should be put back where it belongs — in the fund balance. The same can be said for the other $4 million or so of fund balance money that is being used to keep the tax levy down. As Irene taught us, the fund balance can come in handy, but the current budget proposal would only leave about $1 million in there if FEMA doesn’t come through, and that’s a scary thought considering the damage that has been incurred by storms in recent years.

The kicker here is that the county tabled one of the more solid proposals — raising the occupancy tax to 5 percent, a 2 percent increase. The increase might not be popular among hoteliers, particularly the small scale operations, who fear that the extra charge would result in a decrease in tourism. But would a 2-percent increase, which amounts to $3 more for a $150-anight room, really deter people that much?

It might be worth including something like that in the budget, considering County Treasurer Mike Diskin projects it will bring in $1.2 million.

The occupancy tax certainly wouldn’t solve all of Essex County’s problems, but it would exhibit a modicum of foresight on the part of Essex County supervisors. The time to patch holes and wait until next year to see if they’ve sprung a leak is long gone — now is the time for action and making decisions that will have positive and expected long-term consequences. Dan Palmer knows it, which is refreshing until you realize that is also why he’s retiring — he doesn’t have faith that the current board can accomplish this, and he doesn’t want to be standing next to that dam when it bursts.

At a recent meeting, Town of Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said that personnel is the elephant in the room, and that the county needs to consider consolidating some of its staff, which is probably true, but the real elephant in the room isn’t the pachyderm — it’s the people feeding it.

I

come from a long line of worriers.

As a youngster and even as an adult I found it difficult to understand why mom would worry about the smallest of things. When you’re young, life’s an adventure. Each day brings new opportunity. Today it may have rained but tomorrow is sure to be sunny and bright.

Tomorrow was always a new day, full of opportunity, new events that would shape the day and the world. Change was good. Change was exciting. Change was welcomed.

So why is it that as you age, not only do things start to sag, hair grows grey and recedes and your concern for things both in your control and beyond, begin to weigh heavy on your mind? Change is not so good. Change brings turmoil and confusion. Change is uncomfortable and triggers resistance.

Mom, and her mom before her, would stress out over the big news of the day as well as the every day tasks. Tested by the great depression, two world wars, an evolving cold war, Korean Conflict, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, assassinations, riots in the street and political corruption, they had plenty of big things to worry about.

Looking back their world went from one major crisis event to another. Despite their fears and concerns there was always an optimism that things would turnout okay. There was a happiness that calmed the underlining fears. They had faith, they had family, they had a society that somehow gave them an inner confidence.

They were told that they had nothing to fear but fear itself. So they went about the tasks of the days building their lives and their future, focused on their jobs, their family and their dependence on each other.

As I age I find myself more stressed than in my early years. Not only do I worry about the big issues of the day, national and international events, but even the little things seem to be a greater concern than they once did. There are plenty

of major issues to fret about as the world turns and there is always any number of Dan Alexander little things in Thoughts from life to bring Behind the Pressline about heartburn and sleepless nights.

Is worrying about life’s ups and downs hardwired into my DNA, a hereditary trait, or is it just a function of aging? Or, does it come about as you begin to realize your plans for the future don’t always work out given the ebb and flow of an ever changing landscape and with those you share the world.

A recent survey revealed that a resilient attitude may be the secret to aging successfully. In fact they believe a positive attitude may be more important to aging than good physical health. So there may be some truth to the old wives tale of worrying one’s self to death.

So the bottom line is this; Mayan calendar predicting the end of the world on December 21st of this year; fiscal cliff looming on the horizon; financial struggles; personal concerns; what to write in next week’s column…. Hey, bring em on.

There is little we can’t overcome if we approach things with a positive, can do attitude.

If we’ve learned anything through out time there will always be issues beyond our control and as mere humans we are fallible, destined to trip up. We only make things worse for ourselves if we dwell on the negative. We need to be responsible for our actions but we only go around once so we need to make the most of what we’ve been given, keep our focus on the future and our optimism high. Life is short. Every day is a gift, which is why they call it the “present.”

Letters to the Editor

Imagine...

St. Mary’s thankful

To the Times of Ti:

Get answers at board meeting

To the Times of Ti:

Imagine our region…

Remember in October 1971 when John Lennon released his iconic hit “Imagine”? In the song he sings about the worse case scenario.

Imagine there’s no country or brotherhood of man.

I do not believe we have gotten that bad, but I do believe that with all that is happening around us we are sometimes forgetting the good that our donations to the United Way can accomplish.

Let’s take a moment and imagine hospice with no funds for bereavement services, or Life Flight lacking the funds to purchase fuel to carry a heart attack victim or suddenly-ill child to needed medical care. The list goes on and on.

Every one of the 41 partner agencies of the United Way of the Adirondack Region relies on the generosity of North Country residents like you and me to provide a vital service to our area. Last year 80,000 of our friends and family in Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties received some type of assistance through these agencies.

The life blood of the United Way is the employee campaign. Employers invite us in to present a short video and explain to the staff and employees the mission of the United Way. There is no hard sell, but most individuals, when presented with the facts, find it in their hearts to give what the can. Employer provided payroll deduction makes giving so much easier for the employee.

I would ask if you are an employer, HR director or a concerned citizen, please contact the United Way 563-0028 to learn more about sponsoring a campaign in your place of work. I urge you to give your employees the chance to be generous; to give back. We are all part of a larger community and the United Way is here to assist all of us in supporting the agencies and programs that are so important to the vitality of our region.

One parting thought, anyone can give to the United Way. You don’t have to give through an employee campaign. Direct billing is always an option.

Gayle Alexander 2013 United Way Campaign Chair Elizabethtown

Wake up, America!

To the Times of Ti:

A big, energetic thank you is in order to the participants, organizers, and donors of this year’s basket raffle and spaghetti dinner held at St. Mary’s School on Saturday, Dec. 1. What a wonderful time we all had together.

Many people came and enjoyed the spaghetti dinner, topped with Father Kevin’s homemade spaghetti sauce. Many others helped serve and clean up afterwards. Others took care of every aspect of the logistics and preparation of the baskets. Each of these workers was a critical player in the smooth running of the dinner/raffle extravaganza.

Thank you to all of those who bought tickets to the raffle and dinner and to all of the wonderful people who donated the baskets to be raffled. We appreciate your involvement and understand the significance of community-wide participation in making an event a success.

Sister Sharon Dalton, Principal St. Mary’s School Ticonderoga

Community pulls together To the Times of Ti: I would like to personally thank everyone who supported the fundraiser for me on Nov. 18 at the Burleigh House Restaurant.

Also, to all the businesses who donated to the event and to all the individuals who made baskets or donated money. The event was a huge success.

Thank you to Kim Vilardo for putting on the event and her employees Jarod, Tara, Val, Kaleigh and Samantha for an excellent job.

I want to thank Dawn, Winnie, Jackie and Edna for a great job they did in preparing the dinner and all their hard work.

Ticonderoga may be a small community but when someone is in need everyone pulls together to help one another.

Thank you all so very much!

Bonnie Fleury and family Ticonderoga

To the Times of Ti: History repeats itself. I’m fascinated how civilizations reach greatness and then decline. Why? Events which lead a nation through its birth, infancy, productive years, and finally, death, are cyclical. Using the U.S. as an example, let’s explore each phase.

1. Bondage. Before becoming a nation we were a colony of England, occupied by British troops, taxed and not represented.

2. Spiritual Faith. Based on Judeo-Christian values, our founding fathers in the Declaration of Independence voiced the concept that man’s rights are not bestowed by other men or government but are inborn rights endowed by their creator.

3. Courage. Equipped with this document and their convictions, our forefathers fought against the mighty and well-equipped army of the strongest empire of the time.

4. Liberty. Many battles were fought and lives lost but we persevered and a nation was born.

5. Abundance. Given the freedom to pursue happiness and obtain private property, the people of this land accomplished, in a short time, what no other nation in history had: an abundance of food and goods and the ability to freely enjoy the fruits of their labors.

6. Selfishness. Once goals are reached and outside threats no longer problematic, people become introverted, interested in self.

7. Complacency. Now our country is rolling along. There is a stable government, industry and agriculture are booming. The mechanics are in place to deal with foreign and domestic problems and the people feel they can relax. Somebody out there is taking care of business for them.

8. Apathy. Years have passed since the early struggles for freedom. The people have forgotten that freedom is not free. That each of us has a responsibility to be vigilant of those we put in power.

That it is incumbent upon each of us to participate and be knowledgeable of the issues that impact our lives. But instead, the people have been lulled into a false sense of security. Someone out there will take care of us, no need to be concerned.

9. Dependency. So instead of the individual, can-do approach Americans were famous for, we now see people looking to government to fulfill all their needs. Remember this: “Government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you have.”

This completes the cycle and puts us back into bondage. Wake up, America!

Mary Capek Crown Point

Impressed

Amended America To the Times of Ti: We’ve just entered into a new America, an amended America.

We are in danger of losing more rights within the next four years than any other time in history.

The new amended America is all about supporting the minority, while degrading Christians, and making the Constitution null and void all together.

The world bankers are controlling this far left liberal agenda to bring about a one world government. We see this already with the UN gun restriction, forced health care which leads to Socialism, Marxism, totalitarianism and eugenics.

Freedom of speech is already being quenched. I've stated this in a previous letter a few years ago.

With all the regulations, restrictions and mandates, and with most of the media controlling the masses for the sake of globalism we’re left with an amended America.

This is not the America that I have ever known, nor is it the America my ancestors came to and fought for.

I used to say wake up America, but America cannot awake because it has been infected with the gimme syndrome, other symptoms include greed and corruption. If not treated soon it can be terminal for our country.

If you don’t believe the government controls and over regulates our lives, please consider these facts. The state dictates how much, and where we can walk, hunt, fish, hike, camp, guns and ammo control , approval of all licenses, diplomas and degrees, forced health care, mandated vaccinations, birth certificates, Social Security cards and death certificates. From cradle to grave Uncle Sam has us covered, cause we’re too stupid to think for ourselves, or at least that's what they’d have us believe.

Does this really sound like the land of the free? Of course not!

It's more like the land of the repressed and over regulated.

This new amended America is only gonna get worse. How much longer before it implodes on us or we take a stand to stop it?

Chad Jordon Ticonderoga

I attended the Royal Winter Pageant Dec. 7 at Ticonderoga High School and would like to acknowledge Jamie Harrington, the director, for the outstanding job she did with these 15 girls.

It was beautiful, professional and entertaining. It is such a wonderful learning experience and I was so impressed at the way these very young girls handled themselves and still seemed to be having a lot of fun.

Hats off to you Jamie and all the girls! I was thoroughly impressed and entertained!

Garden club appreciative To the Times of Ti: The Carillon Garden Club wishes to thank all individuals and businesses in the Ticonderoga area who supported their recent wreath sale fund raising project. Nearly 300 wreaths were sold.

Since the club is a non-profit 501 (c ) (3) organization, your contribution is not only appreciated but also tax deductible.

Funds raised from the sale of holiday wreaths will be used to help beautify areas in Ticonderoga and Hague in the coming year.

Annual and perennial flowering plants will be purchased and planted at the entranceways to provide a welcoming and festive sight for visitors and residents. Additional contributions towards this endeavor would be appreciated.

Rather than fill up transfer station space or litter the country-side after the holidays, wreaths may be recycled. All materials from the wreaths can be reused into crafts or recycled in an approved manner. The balsam branches may be added to a compost pile and the metal form can go into your metal recycle bin. Wreaths may also be left at Lonergan’s Antiques on Rt. 9N in Ti or with a member of the Carillon Garden Club.

Members of the club have been participating in the wreath project for many years and are happy to provide locally made fresh balsam wreaths and kissing balls at reasonable prices. Bows are handmade by members and decorations are handsomely arranged, sometimes per Individual requests. Orders for next year will be accepted in September and October 2013.

Once again, the Carillon Garden Club appreciates your support through your purchase of holiday wreaths and also recycling them in an environmentally friendly way. Thank you.

Betty Rettig, president Carillon Garden Club Ticonderoga

Firefighters thankful To the Times of Ti:

To the Times of Ti:

Shortly before the November meeting of the Schroon Lake Central School board of education, I became aware of an essay circulating in local coffee shops. It was not a letter, because it had no salutation or signature, but it made statements and asked questions which seemed to be directed to the citizens of Schroon Lake and Ticonderoga. The subject was a recently inked shared services agreement for Ticonderoga to provide one full-time equivalent employee to meet Schroon Lake’s internet technology needs for the sum of $98,533 per year.

Some of the questions raised involved: — When the need and desire to enter into an agreement was discussed in open session at each district?

— Was the hire of Mr. Thomas Finnerty by Ticonderoga at a salary of $65,000 needed since the budget cuts proposed in March and April cut a 10 month IT? — The time-line of events leading to this contract?

— What options were explored to fulfil this need?

— Was this position advertised or offered in-house?

— Who negotiated this contract?

— Was this legal under the Open Meetings Law? The final statement of the essay, “It is an interesting side note that Thomas Finnerty is the husband of the Schroon Lake Central School’s superintendent,” is obviously intended to inflame people with questions of nepotism, conflicts of interest and improprieties.

Being a former school board member, I wanted to write a letter to the editor stating that the local coffee shop is not the best place to get information. For the system of representative government that we all cherish to work requires citizen inquiry and input. Board meetings are the proper place to ask questions, air concerns, and express your pleasure or displeasure with issues.

Unfortunately there was insufficient time to get a letter in before the meeting. I attended the November meeting and felt dumbfounded when the board president stifled open discussion of the issues arising regarding this contract because of issues of time. I understand limiting the time per speaker, but not per subject, as was done. The board must remember that not only must they avoid conflicts of interest and improprieties, but just as importantly, the appearance thereof.

In closing, I would hope that people with questions or concerns about these or other issues attend board meetings to get answers there, instead of at local coffee shops.

I would also hope that boards would respond to these questions and concerns with open, honest and forthright answers.

The next Schroon Lake board of education meeting is Dec. 20 at 7 p.m. in the auditorium.

Schroon budget tops tax cap Spending down, but taxes up in 2013 budget

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — The 2013 town of Schroon budget exceeds the state’s 2 percent tax cap.

Trustees voted to surpass the cap with little debate, Supervisor Mike Marnell said. State law allows a municipality to top the cap with a 60 percent vote of its board.

“We cut everything we felt we could,” Marnell said.

“What good is a town if you don’t have the things that make a town what it is — snowplowing, sidewalks, the arts council, the historical society? They’re important parts of our town.”

The 2013 Schroon budget totals $4,285,537. That’s a $64,487 decrease — a 1.5 percent cut — from the present spending plan of $4,350,024.

The amount to be raised by taxes in 2013 is $2,357,034.

That’s an increase of $172,960 — a 7.9 percent hike — from the 2012 tax levy of $2,184,074.

To meet the state’s 2 percent tax cap, Schroon’s town board could only raise taxes by $55,396. It would mean cutting another $121,637 from the budget.

Schroon trustees worked to keep spending down. The town will cut its contributions to the Schroon Lake Chamber of Commerce, the Schroon Lake Arts Council and the Schroon-North Hudson Historical Society by 10 percent in 2013.

Labor Day fireworks and three seasonal positions at the town-owned golf course have been eliminated.

“We’re being as frugal as we can,” Marnell said. “There’s no spare money in this budget.”

The 2013 spending plan includes a 10.4 percent increase in the cost of employee health insurance.

“To stay within the tax cap we could only raise taxes $55,396,” Marnell said. “The health insurance increase alone took care of that.”

Schroon town employees will get a 30-cent an hour pay raise and elected officials will get 2 percent pay increases in 2013.

“Town employees haven’t had a raise in three years,” Marnell said. “It’s time they got one.”

Marnell pointed out he will get a $680 raise in 2013, which follows an $8,000 pay reduction in 2012.

The 2013 budget also includes $15,000 for tennis court repairs and $10,000 for downtown sidewalk maintenance.

Making the 2013 budget process difficult, Marnell said, was the lack of fund balance in town coffers. In 2012 the town used $250,000 in fund balance to get under the 2 percent tax cap.

“That money is gone,” the first-year supervisor said. “Unfortunately, we just don’t have any fund balance this year.”

14 - Times of Ti • Crown Point

December 15, 2012

Crown Point from page 1 The committee will be appointed by the respective school boards in January.

The initial committee meeting will take place at Crown Point school Jan. 30 and review enrollment. Other meetings will be March 6 at Ti High to study transportation, April 17 at Crown Point to discuss facilities, May 29 at Ti Elementary-Middle School to review finances, June 19 at Crown Point to discuss programs, July 24 at Ti High to consider staffing and Aug. 21 at Crown Point to adopt a draft report.

Each meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. preceded by a tour of the school at 5:45 p.m.

“Committee members should be available for all metings,” McDonald said, “and realize there may be work involved between meetings.”

The draft report will be submitted to the state Department of Education in September and presented to a joint meeting of the Ticonderoga and Crown Point school boards in October.

All the meetings will be open to the public and information relating to the consolidation study will be posted on the websites of both schools — www.ticonderogak12.org and www.cpcsteam.org The districts have been awarded a $45,000 state grant to hire a outside consultant to help study the two schools. Once the study is complete, a series of votes will be required before any possible consolidation can take place. The earliest any consolidation can take place is July 2014.

Every child wants a pony for his or her birthday. Lydia McLaughlin got one —Monty — for her second The two schools boards met in joint session Dec. 4 to begin the process. birthday. She is the daughter of Dan and Crystal McLaughlin of Crown Point. The family is known for its “I thought it went very well,” McDonald said. “There’s a lot to be done, a long way to go. I love of horses. thought it was very positive.”

If the advisory and school boards decide to proceed following the study, they must then decide whether to seek a merger or an annexation. A merger combines two school districts into a new district. An annexation simply closes one school and sends its students to the other.

As examples, McDonald pointed to the merger of the Port Henry and Mineville schools in 1967 to make the Moriah Central School and the annexation of the Hague school in 1979 into the Ticonderoga Central School District.

For either a merger or annexation to take place, there must be affirmative votes by the advisory board in each district, each school board and the residents of each school district. Any negative vote kills a possible consolidation.

“There will be six votes,” McDonald said. “If any one of them is negative that’s the end of it.”

Brannock and McDonald agreed a possible consolidation is far from a sure thing.

“As the study progresses, there is a requirement that taxpayers in both communities have opportunities to vote and they will make the final decision about how we operate in the future,” Brannock said. “We are fortunate, in these tough fiscal times, to have the grant to help us secure our future.”

Enrollments at both schools are falling. In the 2005-06 academic year Ti had 1,007 students and Crown Point 281. This school year Ti has 850 and Crown Point 265. The projected 2016-17 enrollments are 779 for Ti and 257 for Crown Point.

Poverty rates are increasing in both schools. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunches in the 200506 academic year was 43 percent in Ti and 54 percent in Crown Point. Those rates rose to 49 percent in Ti and 57 in Crown Point in 2011-12.

McDonald said even if there is no consolidation, the study may prove helpful in finding ways the two districts can share services and save money. Crown Point and Ticonderoga now share transportation to the Mineville Champlain Valley Tech d e s U campus. Last year Crown Point students came to Ti High for a g in k Now Stoc physics class. s “The study may show a consolidation is not warranted, but it Ski-Doo Part may show us ways to share more services,” McDonald said.

School consolidations in New York are not uncommon.

$15,000 a year, about half the annual maintenance costs.

“We appreciate their willingness to help out,” Scozzafava said. “They didn’t have to do anything.”

Shannon said Hudson Headwaters values the Moriah Health Center and wanted to assist the town.

“We agreed to help support it,” he said. “We know Moriah is a town with a limited tax base. We want to do our part.”

During the talks on maintenance costs, Hudson Headwaters asked the town board to consider a new lease — this one for 10 years.

“A longer lease will provide the town and Hudson Headwaters with stability,” Shannon said. “It will provide assurity that will allow us to plan for the future.”

Shannon said a long-term lease will allow HHHN to more easily recruit physicians and to make investments in technology at the Mineville facility.

“It can be difficult to recruit (physicians and staff) when there’s uncertainly,” Shannon said. “People want to know where they’re going to work.

“We’d also like to invest in tele-medicine in Moriah,” he said. “That means purchasing hardware, monitors, equipment.

Obviously, we’ll only do that if we are staying in Moriah.”

Scozzafava said the Moriah town board will consider the new, longer lease early in 2013.

“The town board has to discuss it,” the supervisor said, “but I think everyone agrees Hudson Headwaters has been good for the community.”

Hudson Headwaters Health Network is a group of community health centers providing care to the residents in 11 North Country towns, including Schroon Lake and Ticonderoga.

Hudson Headwaters took over the Moriah Health Center, formerly the Mineville Health Center, Jan. 1, 2005. The health center was then in the Moriah Community Building, the former Republic Steel building in Mineville.

The health center that opened in 2008 is a 4,000 square feet building with six exam rooms.

Services at other Hudson Headwaters facilities include routine, urgent and walk-in care; specialty and ancillary services at its larger centers; on-site care in nursing homes, hospitals and home settings; 24hour call and inpatient hospital coverage 365 days a year; and a range of programs in health screening, tracking, education and prevention.

B

ack in early October, I had the pleasure of leading a hike for a group of visitors from Europe. My guests were from both Germany and Switzerland, and this was to be their first hiking trip in the Adirondacks.

We decided on taking a rather easy climb, as the weather appeared questionable and the group was still adjusting to the time change.

It was a bright October morning as we departed the lodge, and piled into my truck.

However, the sky gradually grew darker as the day wore on.

While driving to the trailhead, we passed numerous vehicle loaded with hunters, and eventually the conversation turned to the topic of hunting.

“It appears everyone is allowed to hunt in this country, are they not?” asked one of my guests.

“If they’re of age”, I responded, “And they have achieved a Hunting Safety Certificate. We have vast public lands, as well as extensive private lands available for hunting. Most private properties are reserved for the landowners, however some properties offer leases to hunting clubs.”

“I see”, he remarked. “I’m curious to know how much study is required of the hunter, before they are allowed to hunt?”

“Not a lot”, I replied, “I believe a majority of the hunters who take a Hunter Safety Training Course, receive a certificate.”

“Remarkable!” he remarked, before asking, “And how soon before they are allowed to go on the hunt? ” “As soon as they leave the classroom.” I explained, “Unless they are under sixteen and too young, which requires they hunt with another licensed hunter.”

He appeared astounded, as he revealed, “It is not so easy in Germany! “Hunters must know their animals very well, as well as the lands they travel. They must also know their equipment, and how to shoot proficiently.”

Most applicants spend a year studying for their license, and about half of them fail their first exam. In fact, even the owners of private parks are required to study in order to hunt on their own land.”

Hunters must be respected, and respectful, since public lands are very limited. In fact, most hunters lease the lands they hunt, and typically, they function as game managers.

In fact, if a parcel is less than 150 acres, a landowner who wants the right to hunt there, must compete with other hunters in bidding process.

Leases can cost upwards of $10,000 per year, for about 500 acres, and they require hunters to provide a game management plan, which is reviewed and approved by local officials. If the hunter does a good job of managing the land and the wildlife, the lease is usually extended.

My guests explained that German hunters are expected to memorize a wide array of game laws. They must be able to identify nearly every species of animal in the forest, as well as its sex and age.

Shooting skills must be precise, and they must also know how to develop appropriate wildlife management plans.

German hunters are also required to practice elaborate hunting traditions, such as singing the proper song to honor the death of a prized stag, or offering a prayer to St. Hubert.

St. Hubert After explaining the intricate process of becoming a hunter in Germany, my guests were surprised to learn that St. Hubert is also honored in the states.

St. Hubert is the patron saint of hunters. He is also considered the patron saint for archers, forest workers, furriers and trappers, hunters and huntsmen as well as hunting as a profession.

He is commonly mentioned in the Adirondacks, and his name adorns churches from Tahawus to Keene Valley to Raquette Lake and beyond.

Saint Hubert, also know as the "Apostle of the Ardennes"

Simple Truth Outreach: Saturday Night

Visitors from overseas, including these hikers from Germany, are often surprised by the vast expanse of land encompassed within the Adirondack Park. was born in 635 and died in 727.

According to legend, he was a renowned hunter and an accomplished poacher, who eventually repented his unsportsmanlike-like ways after observing a crucifix glowing between the antlers of a stag.

In fact, the image of a cross in a stag’s rack is still found on the label of Jagermeister, (Master hunter) a powerful liquor that is still bottled in Germany.

St. Hubert is also considered the patron saint of archers, forest workers, furriers, trappers, hunters and huntsmen as well as hunting as a profession.

Although I had attended Catholic school for a fair portion of my education, I was never told of the legend of St. Hubert.

It’s likely the management did not mention such notions in an effort to discourage any further youthful investigation into the elixir that bears his logo. You know, bad habits and all!

Young runner races in national championship Ryan Bush 15th in Junior Olympics

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ryan Bush was born to run.

“When he was just a baby we’d put him in a stroller and run,” his father, Rick Bush Jr., recalled. “We took him to races all over the area. He’s been around running his entire life.

It’s a big part of our family.”

The young runner with ties to Ticonderoga competed for a national championship Dec. 8 in Albuquerque, N.M. Ryan, age 8, finished 15th in the USA Track and Field National Junior Olympic Cross Country Championships at Balloon Fiesta Park. He covered the 2-kilometer course in 8 minutes, 0.60 seconds. Rheinhar Harrison of Fairfax, Va., won in 7:30.37.

Ryan qualified for the 2,000-meter championship race by winning his class at the Adirondack Region championship race in Saratoga and then taking third place in the New England Region race on Long Island.

“We’re very proud of Ryan,” his father said. “He has a real passion for running. He loves the sport.”

Ryan is a typical 8 year old. He also plays soccer, basketball and baseball.

“He’s involved in all sports,” Rick said. “He loves to run, but he really doesn’t train. He’s not running a lot of miles.

We try to pull him back a little bit.”

Ryan was looking forward to the championship race and the trip to New Mexico.

“He’s really excited,” his father said. “For a while he

thought he was going to Mexico, not New Mexico. It’s neat to see his excitement.”

Ryan is the son of Rick and Dana Ostrander Bush, Saratoga residents who spend time each summer at the family’s home on Black Point Road in Ticonderoga. He is the grandson of Rick and Mary Bush, both Ticonderoga natives.

The Bush family has a long history in Ticonderoga. Ryan’s great-grandparents were Walter “Tuffy” and Elsie (Gallant) Bush and Ed and Kay (Dion) Shattuck. Great-great-grandmother Corina “Queenie” Gallant was a long-time history teacher in Ti and was instrumental in the construction of St. Mary’s School.

Ryan is no stranger to distance running. Both his parents ran track and cross country on nationally-ranked teams at Providence College in Rhode Island and have continued running. His father earned 1998 NCAA Division I All-Academic Cross Country Team honors. His mother finished third in the Big East Conference 10K track championships while a Friar. Both ran in NCAA Division I cross country national championship races. Rick graduated in 1999, Dana in 2000.

Rick and Dana Bush dominated Ticonderoga’s Montcalm Mile for years.

Rick held the men’s record of 4 minutes, 3 seconds until it was broken in 2011 by Lee Berube with a 4:01 clocking.

Berube has since lowered that record to 3:54.

Dana Bush still holds the women’s Montcalm Mile mark of 4:41.

Ryan has also run the Montcalm Mile the past two years.

“It’s a great family race,” Rick said of Ticonderoga’s July 4th race. “We look forward to it every year. It’s a lot of fun.”

A young runner with ties to Ticonderoga competed for a national championship Dec. 8 in Albuquerque, N.M. Ryan Bush, age 8, finished 15th in the USA Track and Field National Junior Olympic Cross Country Championships.

High Peaks Hospice helps people cope with death and dying

By Shaun Kittle shaun@denpubs.com PORT HENRY — Hospice care isn’t about giving up, it’s about making a decision—a decision that can define how the final days of a person’s life will be lived.

“The misconception is that hospice care is about dying or about giving up, and it’s not,” said Ingrid Roemischer, development and outreach coordinator of High Peaks Hospice.

“The patient is who we take care of. It’s still their life, it’s still their choice.”

When a doctor gives someone six months or less to live, they often have the option of staying in a hospital and receiving treatment. Hospice caregivers, like those who work and volunteer for High Peaks Hospice, can offer the patient, and the patient’s family, other options.

“A lot of people want to be home their last days, and we help them do that,” Roemischer said, adding: “It’s care, it’s not a cure.”

What Roemischer means is that the purpose of hospice is to offer support and to make a person’s last days as comfortable as possible.

High Peaks Hospice staff members become as involved as the family, and the patient, would like them to be, and will come to a person’s home, nursing home or hospital.

Staff can visit daily, or weekly, depending on a patient’s wishes, and can perform tasks that range from simple conversation to helping take care of the patient.

It’s what Roemischer refers to as the circle of care. In the center is the patient, and then the primary caregiver and the patient’s family. Around that is hospice, and then the doctor.

The bulls-eye is always the patient, the focal point of all factions of hospice care, and everyone with a diagnosis of six months or less to live is eligible.

“We do not turn people away based on age, gender, race, religion, or ability to pay,” Roemischer said.

It’s true that hospice focuses on the needs of the patient, but they are also there for the needs of the patient’s family.

“End of life can be very stressful for everyone involved,” Roemischer said. “Sometimes, the family just needs to get away for a few hours.”

High Peaks Hospice has served more than 5,600 patients and their families in Franklin, Essex and Warren counties since it was founded in 1986.

Even though hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most health management organizations and private insurance companies, some expenses, like bereavement and mileage reimbursement, are largely funded by donations and community support.

High Peaks Hospice also relies heavily upon volunteers like Frank Montbriand, who discovered hospice about five years ago.

Montbriand took care of his mother for two-and-a-half years in Hague with his sister and her husband.

After his family contacted High Peaks Hospice to assist in taking care of his mother toward the end of her life, he immediately began to see the value in hospice care.

“If you go through that kind of experience you realize how physically, mentally and spiritually exhausting it can be,” Montbriand said.

Montbriand’s mother died of old age in Feb. 2006, the day after her 95th birthday. He became a hospice volunteer six months later and has now worked with about 30 patients.

The work has helped Montbriand understand that death is a natural part of life, and that it doesn’t necessarily have to be seen as a bad thing.

“A lot of people, when they get to the point where they can’t interact well with people, when they can’t remember situations and when they can’t take care of themselves, they’re ready to go,” Montbriand said. “I think as a society we need to honor that.”

Part of honoring that is accepting that, as people’s bodies begin to shut down, giving them comfort is paramount to improving their quality of life during their final days.

“We have this human desire to feed and nurture people when they are sick, but sometimes the body just doesn’t want food anymore,” Montbriand said. ““The quality of life issue becomes dominant. What I want for them is a peaceful death and as much family support as possible.”

The nature of Montbriand’s volunteerism means he often gets to know people who are close to death, and there are emotions involved in that which can be difficult to cope with.

Understanding the process of death helps him get through it, as does allowing for time to grieve.

“You don’t really know about dying until you get there,” Montbriand said. “We’re here to go through the mourning process, too.”

Jane Turlouw is also a volunteer for High Peaks Hospice,

but she specializes in bereavement—helping family and friends of the deceased go through the mourning process.

After taking a post graduate class called children and death, Turlouw found she was interested in the topic and went back to school to get a graduate degree in counseling.

She has been a part of hospice care ever since.

For many grieving is a personal process, one that Turlouw approaches by only being as involved as the people need her to be. A part of that is letting them know that the pain they’re feeling is normal.

“You help people grieve by listening to their story—letting them vent, letting them talk, letting them relive the experience time and time again,” Turlouw said. “It’s helping them normalize their new life, their life without this partner.”

Turlouw worked in hospice in New Jersey for 20 years, and volunteered for High Peaks Hospice after moving to the area.

She said she loves the work, and that the people she’s helping have had a profound impact on her life.

“I feel that the people I came to know have given me more than I’ve given them,” Turlouw said.
