LAKE GEORGE Ñ T hose wanting to learn more about the new boat washing program on Lake George can visit a new website created through the Lake George Park Commission.

The website (lgboatinspections.com) was one of a variety of topics discussed during the commissionÕ s April 18 meeting at the Lake George Town Hall. ÒI t is a site that is solely dedicated as an outreach piece to give people the information that they need,Ó Commission Executive Director David Wick said. ÒE mily DeBolt from the Lake George Association and the Governor’s Office helped create the site. It will be constantly updated as things come up and people will be able to get their boat stickers from the site.Ó As far as the physical implementation of the six inspection sites, Wick said all sites were being prepared for May. ÒA ll of the sites will be up and running for the start of the season,Ó h e said.

Along with preparing the sites is staffing. Wick told members of the Commission they had interviewed between 80 and 100 people for the position in their first week of finding.

Boat washing Continued from page 1 Ò Two weeks ago we put it out that we were going to be looking for people to work at five of the sites,” Wick said. Ò In the last week, we have been interviewing in 10-minute intervals and have seen a

lot of quality candidates.Ó The five sites the Commission will staff are located at Mossy Point Public Boat Launch in Ticonderoga, RogerÕ s Rock Public campground and Boatlaunch in Hague, Norowal Marina in Bolton Landing, DunhamÕ s Bay Dock and Launch in Queensbury and the Lake George Inspection

Station in Lake George.

A sixth site, located at the Huletts Landing Marina, will be privately contracted. The other five sites will be staffed through Heber Staffing and the Commission.

One issue brought up was how the new boat washing policies and station would mesh with the several fishing tournaments that would be taking place on the lake in the summer when fishermen arrive as early as 4 a.m. to put their boats in the water. Ò We have tried to make it

April 26, 2014

clear to the tournament directors to have their fishermen show up early and we will start as early as 3 a.m. for tournament days,Ó Wick said. Ò I think that we are doing everything that we can to make the systems work for both sides, but it is going to be a work in progress. They know what the rules are and we are going to be as possible. We want to make it work.Ó The next Lake George Park Commission meeting will be held Friday, May 30, 2 p.m. at the Bolton Town Hall.

Lake George Associations’ Floating Classroom earns national merit

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA/LAKE GEORGE Ñ A program that gives students the chance to learn about aquatic sciences by getting onto the water has won a national award.

The Floating Classroom, run by the Lake George Association,

has won a 2014 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Environmental Quality Award. The award was presented during ceremonies held April 23. Ò ItÕ s just very exciting to have been working on this project for so long and to receive a recognition like this for it,Ó said Kristen Rohne, Education Coordinator for LGA. The Environmental Quality Award is the highest recognition presented to the public by the EPA. Each year, the EPA recogniz-

es individuals, businesses, government agencies, environmental and community-based organizations and members of the media in EPA Region 2 who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to protecting and enhancing environmental quality and public health. Ò We are so honored to be selected as a recipient for this prestigious award,Ó said Walt Lender, LGA Executive Director. Ò We are lucky here at Lake George to have such an amazing resource right here in our own backyard. For over 129 years the LGA has been working to protect the Lake, and creating the next generation of stewards through our Floating Classroom program for over 20 years is a privilege.Ó Rohne said the theory behind the floating classroom is to allow children the chance to have hands-on experiences with science and Lake George. Ò It gets the kids outside and making the connections to the science that we are talking about,Ó Rohne said.

Created in the early 1990s, the Floating Classroom has evolved over the years as the needs of the Lake have changed. Ò When Asian clam was found in the Lake in the fall of 2010, we updated the program to teach participants about the clams, what they looked like, and what to do if they think they saw one,Ó said Emily DeBolt, LGA Outreach Coordinator. Ò Over 6,200 participants have learned about Asian clam since then aboard the boat.Ó DeBolt was in charge of education programming at the LGA, including the Floating Classroom until last year, with Rohne now taking the reigns. Ò Every year we get more interest from schools,Ó Rohne said. Ò We started with local schools and now we have them coming in from the Albany area.Ó Since 1997, The Floating Classroom has educated over 21,000 participants and the Program set its record for the number of participants in 2013 at 2,228.

After spring school field trips are over, the LGA program offers trips for area residents and visitors during the summer.

For more information on the floating classroom, call 668-3558 or visit lakegeorgeassociation.org.

To frack or not to frack?

P

oliticians have a knack for skirting issues which might cost them votes at the ballot box, or worse, campaign dollars on the road to election. Never has this been more apparent than in Gov. Andrew CuomoÕ s refusal to take a stand on the growing fracking debate.

Few environmental issues in recent memory have galvanized the opposing sides like hydraulic fracturing, better known as fracking, has. Far from a distant national issue that has no resonance to the North Country, New York is one of 33 states in the Lower 48 where shale gas formations have been identified as targets for fracking.

The massive and much coveted Marcellus and Utica formations cover all of western and much of central New York, lapping at the very foothills of the Adirondacks. And these are only the formations they have so far discovered. Could there be more in the mountains themselves?

FrackingÕ s history goes back to 1947, when it was first used on a well in Grant County, Kansas to stimulate gas production. Fracking itself is a technique used for extracting natural gas trapped in shale gas formations be injecting a myriad of chemicals and massive amounts of water into the ground, causing the shale to fracture, releasing the gas held in the shale. A technique called horizontal drilling, perfected in the early 1990s, then captures a portion of the newly released gas, and pumps it to the surface.

Two issues with fracking become obvious to anyone who doesnÕ t align themselves with the oil and gas industry. The first, is that these companies are not bound by the 1974 Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), and do not have to disclose what potentially deadly chemicals they are pumping into the ground. Most of these chemicals, which are trucked around the country to well sites, would generate a hazmat spill response if they were released on land. But because of lobbying, and deep national political penetration by individuals from the oil and gas industries (potential fodder for a later editorial), the fracking industry was written out of the SDWA. They simply do not have to say what chemicals they are pumping into the ground that was just fractured, and can thus seep throughout that ground.

Second, is the fact that the gasses trapped in the shale are suddenly released, and can course throughout the newly fractured shale wherever they meet a path of little resistance. Unlike classic oil drilling, where an underground pool of oil is extracted at a specific drilling point, fracking allows the gas to go virtually anywhere underground; into drinker water wells, to the surface to be released into the atmosphere, or back into the extraction point to be captured. A great deal of the gas is caught and extracted, but not all.

April 26, 2014

Antidotes abound of contaminated ground water, where people are able to set their tap water, or water in a stream, on fire. Incidents of sudden bizarre illnesses in people, livestock and wild animals cropping up suddenly around a cluster of wells abound as well. Unfortunately, until the federal government commissions a conclusive study of these incidents, they remain Òan tidotes,Ó and are dismissed by many as just that. How many antidotes constitute a fact? How many people have to die of cancer, or lose their home to contamination before it constitutes a public health emergency? The federal government jumped all over General Motors after a handful of people died as a result of alleged ignition issues. Likewise the spinach industry has barely recovered from a government overreaction to an e-coli outbreak a few years ago, but where is the government now? The fox is running the hen house, and the fox if getting rich doing it.

It is time for Gov. Cuomo to be the adult in the room, and admit that fracking is responsible for both environmental and personal destruction wherever it is used. Yes, we need to get out from under foreign fossil fuels, but at what cost?

We canÕ t drill in Anwar, Alaska because it might harm some caribou, but we know that fracking does much worse, and it does it right in our back yards.

Proponents inevitably argue about the potential jobs and money that accompany these wells.

Antidotally, a family here or there might make some money leasing their land to a company to frack, but its seldom the monetary boon its made out to be. ItÕ s normally far from enough to abandon a contaminated house and start over again somewhere else. And, the family leasing their land for a well canÕ t guarantee that their neighborsÕ wells, neighbors who were not paid by the gas company, wonÕ t become contaminated.

Yes, people are put to work at these wells, or in trucking the chemicals, but they would also be put to work building less destructive environmental projects like wind farms. Much of north-western Clinton County is now covered by job and energy producing wind mills. As of press time today, they have yet to contaminate a single well.

WeÕ re left to wonder yet again what type of political algorithm Gov. Cuomo is employing to make his decision on fracking in New York.

Money versus votes, cheaper gas versus the safety of the people and the environment. ItÕ s time for the governor to choose. Ñ D enton Publications Editorial Board

A job well done is worth doing

A

recent survey by the website CareerCast.com came up with a list of the 10 most desirable careers and rounded out the report with the 10 worst careers. IÕ ve always been of the opinion that any job was far better than no job, but then again I come from a different era where we were happy to be employed.

In general terms, one looked at their bank account and their lifestyle. If the career path addressed those needs and they were satisfied with the workload, that was far more important than what a poll would tell us about popularity.

LetÕ s look at what the survey says are the top 10 careers accordDan Alexander ing to CareerCast.comÕ s Ò 2014 Jobs Rates Report:Ó Thoughts from 1. Mathematician 2. University Professor (Tenured) Behind the Pressline 3. Statistician 4. Actuary 5. Audiologist 6. Dental Hygienist 7. Software Engineer 8. Computer Systems Analyst 9. Occupational Therapist 10. Speech Pathologist Really? A Mathematician outscored all the other career choices and ranked No. 1? At No. 2, just behind mathematician, is the tenured university professor? When I was growing up I just canÕ t remember anyone naming off any of these top 10 positions. I should know since my classmates and I at St. LukeÕ s First Grade class in Erie, Penn., were highly sought after for our opinions on career choices in the Erie Daily Times back in 1960. Nurses, fireman, astronauts, police officers, doctors, and president all rated pretty high as I recall, but not a one is on this list for 2014.

So, what are the worst jobs in the 2014 Job Rates Report?: 1. Lumberjack 2. Newspaper Reporter 3. Enlisted Military Personnel 4. Taxi Driver 5. Broadcaster 6. Head Cook 7. Flight Attendant 8. Garbage Collector 9. Firefighter 10. Corrections Officer These careers are now considered the worst jobs one can have? Times have sure changed.

What would Clark Kent think today about being a mild mannered mathematician fighting for truth, justice and the American way? ItÕ s hard to understand what the criteria was for selecting these jobs, but it doesnÕ t seem possible that a newspaper reporter nor a lumberjack, for that matter, are the worst jobs.

The report goes on to say that a newspaper reporter and lumberjack are at the bottom of the Jobs Rated Report in part due to dwindling hiring prospects. Dim hiring prospects according to the report are a recurring theme among the jobs ranked at the bottom of the report. Income and stress are noted as contributing factors.

I donÕ t know of too many jobs that donÕ t entail some income challenges, especially when starting out, and stress can certainly add some excitement to an otherwise boring day. But the work we perform, while to some may seem mundane or of little quality, is a very personal choice and is based on our perception of happiness from our own unique perspective.

There is so much more to oneÕ s life vocation then to stack it up against all the other job titles available and then do some sort of comparison. Reports like this do a great disservice to working America. Every job is worth doing and provides some form of public service to our fellow man and to the overall economics of the nation. Pride in oneÕ s work is so much more than the rate of pay and the ease at which one can perform the job.

Fire department busy To the Times of Ti: 2014 has started out to be a very busy year for us. In January we responded to 35 emergencies resulting in 585.4 man hours. We responded to four structure fires, one chimney fire, four motor vehicle accidents, five water emergencies, five fire, smoke or carbon monoxide alarms as well as 16 other miscellaneous emergencies. We also conducted four training drills that resulted in 242.5 Man hours. February slowed down but the severity of the emergencies didnÕ t change much. February resulted in 14 emergencies with 347.0 Man hours. There were two structure fires, two chimney fires, three motor vehicle accidents, three fire, smoke or carbon monoxide alarms as well as four other miscellaneous emergencies. We conducted four training drills that resulted in 215.0 Man hours. March continued to be steady with 16 emergencies resulting in 131.9 Man hours. There was one chimney fire, two motor vehicle accidents, five water emergencies, two fire, smoke or carbon monoxide alarms as well as six other miscellaneous emergencies. We also conducted four training drills that resulted in 215.0 Man hours.

Now that winter finally seems to be over and spring is in the air many people will be getting outside and will start having barbecues. We want to make sure that everyone stays safe and enjoys themselves so here are a few safety tips when using barbecues: •Always locate a barbecue away from any combustible wall.

•Set up grill in an open area away from buildings, dry leaves or brush.

•Be aware of the wind blowing sparks.

•Place grill on a level surface away from low hanging trees, deck railings, siding or any combustible materials.

•It’s a good idea to keep a fire extinguisher within handy reach.

•Use long handled barbecue tools and flame retardant mitts.

•Do not wear loose clothing and watch for dangling apron strings and shirt tails.

•Never leave children or pets unattended near a hot grill Anyone interested in information about the fire department or about becoming a member can stop by the firehouse any tuesday and thursday nights at 7 p.m. or contact any member.

To the Times of Ti: I was surprised that in the midst of a generally good editorial a suggestion for improving education was by breaking unions. The growth of the middle class followed the growth of unions during the 20th century, as has the decline of the middle class followed the ongoing efforts to bust unions.

The only people/institutions that truly benefit by the destruction of unions are corporations, their highly overpaid chief executives, and shareholders. The lack of unions has allowed corporations like Walmart get away with paying their employees so little they are eligible for food stamps. Has there been corruption in unions? Sure just as there has been corruption and greed on Wall Street that lead to economic collapse we have been suffering through. The solution isnÕ t eliminating unions any more than it is eliminating corporations, itÕ s in reform, transparency, good governance and so on.

The reality is we all benefit from collective bargaining, that said, too often the collective bargaining is just focussed on renumeration and not enough on improving the product, in this case, how we educate our children. We need the collective voice in our planning, to set goals, and measure outcomes Ð outcome that are more than just how one does on a test as we need to enhance our kidsÕ creativ-

ity, moral judgement, sense of responsibility, and ability to be a good citizen along with their skills in reading, writing, math, science, and athletics.

Who’s in control To the Times of Ti: BrrrrrrÉi tÕ s been awhile since my last letter to the editor. IÕ ve barely awakened from my winter hibernation. Coincidentally or not, this leads me to comment on a letter that implied our planet is doomed from something so vital to it. Carbon dioxide is the ying to oxygenÕ s yang (or vice-versa). Also of note is Genesis 8:22 where the Lord reminds us that, ÒWh ile the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease.Ó In other words, GodÕ s in control and not the poster child of the global warming religionists. How many times will they change the name of their cause and how far will they go to cook the books? As for Fox News, I must remind a certain writer that they are still No. 1 in network news by a wide, wide margin. My advice to the scoffers would be, ÒI f you canÕ t beat Õ em, join Õ em!Ó John Sharkey Ticonderoga

15 years of baseball basics: celebrating the Ti Tee Ball League

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ Whether they grew up to become Mike Trout or Mike from accounting, almost anyone who ever played the game of baseball started out with a bat and a tee.

For the 15th year, the Ticonderoga Tee Ball League will open its season with the goal not only to teach youngsters the game, but to also teach sportsmanship, friendship, and confidence.

Tabitha Woods, league founder and president, said she is pleased with the leagues development over the past decade-and-a-half. Ò We started out with nine teams of 15 kids each and each child received only a hat and tee shirt, playing at the school next to the playground,Ó Woods said. Ò The number of kids have pretty much stayed the same, but now full uniforms are provided to each child. In 2007 the kids raised enough money and the EMA club was generous enough to lend out property so the league could build their own playing field, dedicating it to Philip Frazier, an 11 year-old boy who died in a house fire.”

The league has filtered players into the little league programs and up through the Ticonderoga varsity baseball and softball programs.

In all, Woods estimates that 1,600 kids have been part of the league. Ò So many children have come through our league, and not forgetting all the volunteers as well,Ó Woods said. Ò We would like to send out a very big thank you to all of those volunteers throughout the years, you never truly realize how much you really are appreciated to most as well as all of our sponsors throughout the years.Ó Over the span of the program, Woods said the organizers of the league try their best to meet the needs of all the kids.

“The children enjoy playing, they have built a field of their own, our banquet is much bigger and has more awards to offer to the kids and volunteers,Ó Woods said.

Opening Day for the 2014 season for the seven participating teams will take place Monday, May 5, 5:30 p.m. at the Philip Frazier Field.

League sponsors include LibbyÕ s Bakery Cafe, Napa, RB Motors, Trout House Resort, EMA, Reale Construction, Elks, Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union and the Knights of Columbus.

Fundraisers planned for Best Fourth in the North

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ A spaghetti dinner and coin drop have been planned to help pay the expenses for the Ticonderoga celebration of independence.

The Best Fourth in the North Committee, part of the Ticonderoga/Montcalm Street Partnership, will host the two events as fundraisers for the annual festivities which run from July 1 through Independence Day. Committee member Debbie Barber said the annual event costs between $25,000-30,000 annually to put together and is done by a group of 10 volunteers. Ò It is a very small group that makes up the committee and their job is to plan the events and do the fundraising,Ó said Matt Courtright, Executive Director of the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, who helps the committee. Ò The chamber is helping out a lot more than we have in the past but that does not help the committee out with their fundraising,Ó Courtright said. Ò We have encouraged them to raise funds by partnering with local businesses and organizations within the community.Ó Barber said the spaghetti dinner which will be held at EddieÕ s Restaurant Monday, May 5, from 4:30 to 7 p.m., was part of the new collaboration. Ò This is a new fundraising event that came up when we were talking about how to partner with some local businesses,Ó Barber said. Ò We had some ideas about a dinner and were able to talk to the owners of EddieÕ s to put it together.Ó The dinner cost is $12 for adults and $6 for children 12 and under, with takeouts available.

Along with the spaghetti dinner, the committee will host a coin drop Saturday and Sunday, June 28 and 29, at the entrances to McDonaldÕ s and the former LoweÕ s building. The coin drop will take place from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday.

Funds raised from the events will go toward the Best Fourth in the North, helping to pay for some of the most popular parts of the festivities. Ò The bands that perform in the parade and at the park are all being paid except for the band from Fort Ticonderoga,Ó Barber said. Ò A lot of people think that the town is paying for this or that the bands are volunteering, but they are not. One of the biggest things that we hear from the community is that they want more music.Ó Barber said bands can range up to $3,000 for an appearance

Fundraisers will continue in preparation for the Best Fourth in the North. fee. Along with the bands, the committee also pays for the annual fireworks show, which can run from $17,000 to $18,000. Ò We do get a $5,000 donation from the town and Alonzo Fireworks is giving $1,000 in donations to the show,Ó Barber said.

Recently, the Best Fourth in the North raised over $1,100 in a pair of events held April 5 in the annual alumni basketball tournament and guest bartender night at The Pub. Along with fundraising events, the committee has also sent out a fundraising letter and parade application to local businesses with varying sponsorship opportunities as well as an appeal to bring more community groups into the parade.

“We are looking for more floats from the community and more people to participate,Ó Barber said.

Along with parade participants, the committee is still seeking nominations for the Grand Marshal (which will be accepted through the end of April) and local bands and vendors who would want to participate in the festivities.

For more, contact the committee through the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce at 585-6619 or chamberinfo@ticonderogany.com.

JOAN BENJAMIN ANDES Joan Benjamin Andes, loving family member and native and long-time resident of New York, died suddenly April 11, 2014. Mrs. Andes was born in Wappingers Falls, daughter of Robert W. and Vera Benjamin, and sister to Joyce Blom, Jackie Draiss and Robert Benjamin.

After high school, Mrs. Andes joined her sister, Joyce, in attending nursing school at the former Vassar Bros. Hospital in Poughkeepsie. Mrs. Andes went on to earn her bachelor's degree in nursing from New York University, becoming the first member of her family to earn a four year degree. For several years, Mrs. Andes worked as a head nurse in obstetrics. She met James Stuart Andes in Puerto Rico, and the two were married in March 1962.

They lived in Seattle, Washington and Birmingham, Michigan before returning to New York in 1973. Mrs. Andes left nursing to devote herself to motherhood. When her children started school, Mrs. Andes opened a bed and bath shop, Bright Start, and in 1977, the family purchased a farm in Cross River, N.Y. and kept horses and other animals. After retiring from retail, Mrs. Andes launched a third career as a real estate agent. Mrs. Andes was instrumental in the family's purchase of Brookhaven Cottages, a resort on New Hampshire's Spofford Lake.

Mrs. Andes devouted herself

to Brookhaven, where she met many friends, with whom she corresponded until the end. After opperating the cottages for several decades, the Andes sold Brookhaven and bought a summer home on Lake George, in the Adirondacks.

At about that time, they also moved to Ruther Glen, Va. to be closer to their daughter, Jennifer V. Anderson. The Andes celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in March 2012. Mr. Andes died suddenly three months later.

Mrs. Andes enjoyed her remaining months with family and friends but never recovered from the loss of her husband and ensuing lonliness.

In addition to her daughter, Mrs. Andes is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, James S, Andes II and Peggy Andes; her son in law, Chuck Anderson, grandchildren Parker Anderson, 11, Muriel Anderson 6, and William Andes, 5; a step granddaughter, Rachel Anderson, 21, and several nieces and nephews.

Friends may call at the Delehanty Funeral Home 64 E. Main St., Wappingers Falls, Friday from 5 to 7 PM. Funeral services will be held Saturday at 10:00 AM at the United Methodist Church, 9 Mesier Ave. S., Wappingers Falls. Pastor Scharlise Dorsey officiating.

CROWN POINT Ñ A reported car accident in the town of Crown Point ended with two out-of-state occupants being arrested on various charges, including weapons violations.

On April 13 at approximately 1:36 p.m., State Police responded to Creek Road for report of a vehicle that hit a telephone pole and left the scene. Troopers soon located the vehicle on State Route 9N near Sugar Hill Road, a 2006 Dodge Ram. The vehicle was being operated at that time by 33-year-old Jeanetta M. Maze of Salt Lick, KY. The male passenger was identified as 45-year-old Dale L. Golden of North Platt, NE. Golden had sustained abrasions to his face. Troopers discovered that Golden had been operating the vehicle at the time of the crash.

Golden was subsequently arrested for driving while intoxicated. His blood alcohol

content was determined to be .21 percent. He was also found to be in possession of an AR-15 assault rifle and three high capacity magazines. One of the magazines had 27 rounds of .223 ammunition in it. He also possessed two handguns without a proper a New York State pistol permit.

Golden was charged with Aggravated Driving While Intoxicated, two counts of Criminal Possession of a Firearm (E Felony), and two counts of Criminal Possession of a Weapon Third Degree (D Felony). He was also ticketed for leaving the scene of a property damage accident.

Maze was ticketed for aggravated unlicensed operation and for having an open container of alcohol in the vehicle.

Both declined medical treatment at the scene.

Golden was arraigned in the Town of Moriah Court

where he was released on $1,500 cash bail. He is to reappear at the Town of Crown Point Court at a later date.

Crown Point Fire and EMS assisted State Police at the scene of the crash.

SCHROON Ñ On April 20 at approximately 7 p.m., State Police responded to a residence on Davis Road in the town of Schroon for a report of a disorderly female.

Catherine M. Macri, 36, refused to cooperate with the investigating trooper and became belligerent and hostile.

She was subsequently arrested for Disorderly Conduct (violation), Resisting Arrest (misdemeanor) and Obstructing Governmental Administration Second Degree (misdemeanor).

Macri was issued an appearance ticket to appear at the Town of Schroon Court on April 30.

Allegory of a life long entrepreneur: 66 years of hair for Hyatt

By Mauranda Stahl-Sorensen mauranda@denpubs.com

PORT HENRY Ñ April 30 marks the 94th birthday celebration of Port HenryÕ s long time barber, Ken Hyatt.

In 1950, Hyatt cut his ribbon and opened the doors to his 4301 Main Street shop. Sixty-six years later he is still opening the same doors.

A graduate of Moriah High School in 1939, Hyatt joined the United States Army, serving in both Germany and England during World War II, tracking the movements of enemy aircraft with a searchlight unit.

After three years in the Army and some time

An antique cash register, part of Ken Hyatt’s Barber Shop in Port Henry.

subsequently working in the lumber industry as well as construction, Hyatt attended barber school at the Tri-boro Barber School in the Bowery district of New York City. Ò I wanted to work for myself,Ó Hyatt said. Ò In those days you just didnÕ t have money given to you.Ó

Notable Shears

After obtaining his license to Barber in 1948, he became a two year apprentice in a barber shop in Ticonderoga. Hyatt also cut hair at many local boys summer camps, including the Glen Burnie Summer camp in Newcomb. Ò I cut some famous peopleÕ s hair during those summer camps,Ó recalled Hyatt. Ò I cut (President Harry) TrumanÕ s grandchildrensÕ hair and even Rosalind RussellÕ s boys.Ó Hyatt purchased his home in Port Henry with his wife, Eleanor, and worked out of a small space in the house before building an addition to accommodate his shop. From the antiqued National Cash Register to the barber pole purchased from his childhood barber, the shop is a nostalgic reminder of the era of malt shops and sock-hops.

“I charged 35-cents for a cut when I first opened, it is $8 now.Ó said Hyatt. Ò Today you may have more money in your wallet but it donÕ t go any further.Ó

Long life line

Angel of Hope committee to meet

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com MORIAH Ñ A group hoping to bring a Memorial Garden to Moriah will meet to discuss accomplishments and goals in Port Henry.

A Memorial Garden and Angel of Hope project committee meeting will be held Saturday, May 3, 6:30 p.m. at LightWorks Reiki, 4326 Main Street.

Committee member Luci Carpenter said newcomers are very welcome and needed. Ò Basically, the project is moving along well,Ó Carpenter said. Ò We held several fund raisers through the winter months, which included angel and snowflake ornament sales, $300 fuel oil raffle and Valentine’s Day dinner dance at the Mineville VFW. Glens Falls National Bank dedicated their St. Patrick’s Day customer appreciation day raffles to the project. The Brian T. Carpenter Memorial Fund seeded the project start up, and between that and the fundraisers we were able to raise half the cost of the angel monument and it has been ordered.Ó Carpenter said AES Engineering of Plattsburgh has donated time and effort to creating the concept design for the Garden and Angel.

“We have just received the final concept design plans and are now ready to find the contractors needed to break ground and begin the land preparation for construction of the hardscapes and subsequent landscaping of the Garden,Ó she said.

Carpenter said fundraising is still taking place.

“We are selling Wind & Fire Bangle Bracelets at LightWorks Reiki with proceeds of specific themed bracelets going to the Memorial Garden/Angel of Hope Project,Ó Carpenter said. Ò We have and are placing coin collection jars in local establishments in our Ô Pennies from HeavenÕ campaign.Ó Anyone willing to host a Pennies from Heaven Coin Jar can call Carpenter at 572-6427 and a committee representative will drop one off and check up on it for the next couple of months.

Carpenter said they will also be holding a brick paver fundraising campaign. Ò We will also be taking names of those interested in purchasing a memorial bench,Ó she said.

For more information on the Angel of Hope and Memorial Garden Project, contact Carpenter at 572-6427 or luciccarp@gmail.com.

Vrooom! North Hudson to celebrate car tradition May 3

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com NORTH HUDSON Ñ ItÕ s a celebration of all things automotive as well as a remembrance of the rich racing tradition of the smallest town in Essex County.

The seventh annual North Hudson Classic Car Cruise-in and Dragway Reunion will take place Saturday, May 3, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the North Hudson firehouse. Ò It all started seven years ago with the Schroon/North Hudson Historical Society as a way to bring together cars from the drag strip along with people who brought out their own classic cars and hot rods,Ó April Bessey said of the event. Ò Someone said that we should make this an annual event, and it has just ballooned from there.Ó In 2013, Bessey said there were between 60 and 70 cars with around 300 people coming out to see and talk autos.

The event is unique since it does not charge a registration fee or have prizes. Ò People tell us that they like that part of the

event,Ó said Bessey, whose father-in-law was one of the pioneers at the former North Hudson drag strip. “It’s the first chance for everyone to come out for a show and get together to talk about cars.Ó The event features classic vehicles from the 1930Õ s through modern automotive marvels.

There are also several racing and drag cars that make an appearance, including the Flying Farmer, which Bessey said always takes center stage.

Along with the cars, the event also features a 50/50 raffle and other raffles throughout the day. Ò We have some gracious businesses and groups that donate prizes to be raffled off,” Bessey said. Ò We have had enough prizes to where we have had raffle drawings every 20 minutes.Ó The North Hudson WomenÕ s Auxiliary will be providing coffee, donuts, snacks and lunch.

Wagon rides around the town beach are also planned as part of the day.

For more information, contact Bessey at 5327877.

The North Hudson Cruise-in and Dragway Reunion is set to take place Saturday, May 3, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Local rabies clinics announced for 2014 Schroon Lake VFD

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

TICONDEROGA Ñ As the weather is more conducive to outdoor activity for humans and their pets, the Essex County Public Health Department wants to make sure all are protected against rabies.

Director Linda Beers said the department has already received a number of reports of wild animals moving about in communities and concerns about rabies. Ò It is essential for pet owners to make sure their pets are up to date with their rabies vaccinations,Ó Beers said. Ò We have rabies clinics scheduled throughout Essex County for the whole year so people can plan and we may add clinics if needed.Ó Beers said that animal owners need to make sure pets and livestock are up to date

with their rabies vaccinations; should feed pets indoors and donÕ t leave pets outside unattended; avoid contact with wild animals and stray or unknown cats and dogs; and tightly cap garbage cans and avoid attracting wild animals to your yard with birdseed or other food.

To help with providing rabies vaccination, Public Health has scheduled a number of clinics in the region over the next few months. All clinics will be held from 6 to 7 p.m. at the appointed site. Pet cat, dog and ferrets may receive vaccination no charge; a donation of $5 per pet will be accepted.

In May, rabies clinics will be held at the Elizabethtown Fire Hall (May 6), the Au Sable Forks Ambulance Hall (15), Schroon Lake Fire Hall (21) and Willsboro Highway Garage (29).

June clinics will be held at the Lake Placid horseshow grounds on the third and the

Bloomingdale Fire Hall on the 26th. The Moriah Town Hall will host a clinic July 15, followed by the Wilmington Fire Hall July 31.

In August, The Minerva Fire Hall will host a clinic on the 12th, followed by the Essex Highway Garage on the 19th and Keene Fire Hall on the 21st. September clinics will be held at the Westport Fire Hall (16th) and North Hudson Fire Hall (23rd). The clinic schedule ends at the Lewis Fire Hall Oct. 9 and the Ticonderoga Fire Hall Oct. 15.

You may also call a nuisance wildlife control officer who may remove the animal for a fee. Call the Essex County Public Health Department at 873-3500 to report a contact or if you have any questions.

to host open house SCHROON Ñ The Schroon Lake Fire Department will open its doors to area residents so they can learn about what it takes to be a volunteer firefighter in their community as part of the fourth annual RecruitNY statewide initiative.

On Saturday, April 26, between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., the Schroon Lake Fire Department, located at 28 Industrial Avenue, will join volunteer fire departments all across the state at their respective firehouses for a unified recruitment drive. Not only will RecruitNY be an opportunity to highlight the duties and rewards that come with being a volunteer firefighter, it will also raise public awareness about the need for volunteers.

The morning will start with a free pancake breakfast from 9 to 11 a.m. and follow with an open house. During the Open House, the Schroon Lake Fire Department will conduct tours of the station and firefighter apparatus, allow visitors to try on firefighter gear, and provide activities and stations throughout the firehouse for visitors.

The fire department and ambulance squad will discuss the requirements to be a volunteer, as well as conduct demonstrations, answer questions, and let visitors know how to get involved. Ò We have gained some members in past events when they came and found out that they could volunteer and help in ways that they had not realized,Ó said Chief Rodney Secor. Ò Not every job requires you to run into a burning building. Everyone has skills that can help in some way. Come on out and join us at our firehouse to see and hear first-hand how you can make a difference in our community. This is a great opportunity for our neighbors to observe the exciting tasks of a firefighter and ambulance member. Our current members love what they do; they are everyday heroes who help neighbors in need. We hope our recruitment day will inspire other area residents to join our fire and ambulance service family.”

Jay Hebert, the most successful track athlete in Section VII history, leads the 2013-14 Champlain Valley Athletic Conference indoor track all star team.

HeÕ s joined on the squad by Ticonderoga teammates Jarryn Granger, Coleman Granger, Marcus Moser and Lillith Ida along with MoriahÕ s Halie Snyder. The CVAC all star team includes 37 athletes.

Hebert earned All-American staus with a sixth place finish in the 60-meter hurdles at the New Balance National Indoor Track & Field Championships in New York City March 16. The top six runners were named All-American.

Two weeks before that, Hebert won his fourth straight hurdles state championship, taking the 55-meter event. He won the 110-meter hurdles at the outdoor championships in 2012, then captured the 55-meter hurdles indoors and the 110 hurdles outdoors in 2013.

Hebert has been undefeated in CVAC competition since 2012.

Jarryn Granger was undefeated in the long jump and triple jump this winter in CVAC action. He set season marks in both events at the state meet, leaping 21 feet, 2 3/4 inches in the

long jump and 41 feet, 8 inches in the triple jump. He was 18th in the long jump and 29th in the triple jump at states.

Marcus Moser and Coleman Granger made the all star team as part of TiconderogaÕ s 4x160-meter relay team with Hebert and Jarryn Granger. The quartet set a section record at the section meet with a time of 1 minute, 17.4 seconds. The team advanced to the state meet and also set a school record in the 4x200 with a 1 minute, 38.39 clocking at the Dartmouth Relays. The relay took 10th place at the state meet in the 4-200. Skyler Gilbert was an alternate on the team.

Ida won the Section VII championship in the high jump with a leap of 4 feet, 10 inches.

She also qualified for the state championship meet, finishing 26th.

Revising the law to guide

I

I

They never give up!

was driving past the farm in Chazy thinking about a friend who passed away. The sunny skies had turned to rain, while I was on my way to his funeral service. ItÕ s not where I wanted to be, but where I had to be. No one wants to attend a friendÕ s funeral. My respect for the man would not let me stay home.

It was about 8 years ago; maybe more, maybe less. It really doesnÕ t matter. Part of my conservation job at the

By Rich Redman time was to walk the farm to check for any hazardous products on site that needed to be discarded properly before an easement went through.

On this farm I had about a mile of stream bank to walk and I needed to do both sides of the river; half a dayÕ s cruise through brush, vines and tangles along the river. I looked forward to being outside.

I have walked a hundred farms in my day and have seen the usual junk piles along stream banks. Plastic jugs, old cars, hay wagons and the usual collection of ÒI canÕ t get rid of thatÓ steel collections on stone walls that every farmer has. ÒI t may be useful somedayÓ i s what is usually said.

This farm was different though. After walking a stretch of river, I found nothing, no junk, wasted wagons or tires to show the presence of humans. What I did find was a river that was a stream walkerÕ s heaven. Between those tree lined shores, I found a wildlife sanctuary that was unbelievable. There were wood ducks, mallards and other birds. Fish, frogs and many other forms of wildlife all lived within or near the waters.

Grassy lined banks in some areas, along with Black Willows, Red Maple and other riparian trees and shrubs held the banks together. Clear water was feeding Lake Champlain.

After walking back to the farm headquarters, my report to

Conservation

Conversations

the farmer was short with cleanup items, but long on praise for what he and the family were doing. What I thought I would find versus what I did was a grand surprise. The human past was not there to haunt anyone.

I left the farm and drove east toward the four corners, on the knoll by the tiny cemetery. I love that spot, it reminds me of Illinois or some mid-western state that is big on farm fields.

As I looked back towards the farm I was proud to know that I knew that farmer, and prouder still of how he took care of that farm. Dutch has done a great job!

Yesterday evening before sundown, I was walking down the road. I live just down the road from a small family farm and I enjoy walking past it every now and then, just to get farms back into my life.

This working farm has a stream running through it and it is absolutely beautiful. There are no cows in the stream; the banks are growing up with willow, alders and grasses. The floodplain is connected to the stream. The land floods the way itÕ s supposed to and gently recedes back to the channel with no damage. I know there are trout in the stream. I need to ask permission to try a fly or two in some of those runs, pools and glides that flow through the old pasture land. The stream bends and meanders through the property and adds a value that most people donÕ t see. They just drive by.

I see its value. ItÕ s a haven for trout, woodcock, turkeys and grassland birds. I know the kids on the farm enjoy it too. I have heard rumors that they know where every trout lies in waiting, for a worm or buggy meal. Downstream in the boulder section, I saw stoneflies hatching out last year, a sign of clean water running through this farm, feeding the lake. Tom, Belinda and their sons deserve a thank you from all of us streamwalkers.

Here are two farms that have beautiful streams connecting to Lake Champlain.

Farmers are often criticized for polluting the streams and lakes, but I have seen firsthand farmers who have achieved wonders on their farms by doing some simple things. Yes, there is a loss of farmland by doing the right thing. Having buffers along the stream uses potential crop land, but the added value to the farm, the wildlife ecology of the farm and just being conservation farmers are worth it in my book.

Streams need some nutrients. A fertile stream supplies the feed for invertebrates and they in turn feed the fish.

Too much though can be a problem. We need to find that balance.

Farming is not an easy adventure in life. The roller coaster ride of farm economics stresses the best, but they never give up. New York farmers are doing great conservation work to help reduce and stop pollution.

Its farm families like these that make conservation farming a way of life.

Thank You! Dedicated to Marinus ÒD utchÓ Rovers.

Rest in Peace my friend.

Ryan Crossman caught the fish is this photo. He told me he keeps one every year and all the rest get returned to the waters. Rainbow trout catch and release. An excellent conservation state of mind! Both of these guys are friends of mine and have released fish so they can perpetuate the future. Ryan told me where he caught this, but I just can’t remember where!

Rainbows, steelies or bows, it doesn’t matter, here Cole Glebus and his father Brian have one name for it, HAPPY! The rainbow was caught on a Lake George or was it a Lake Champlain tributary, I just can’t remember. The fish was released to return to the water to live another day.

n a recent column detailing the history of Adirondack guides, I included a quote taken from an 1880Õ s era tourist guidebook.

After detailing the benefits of hiring a guide for Adirondack adventures, the guidebook author had included a mention that guides were Ò often to be found available for hire at all the local taverns.Ó While it may have been the case in the1880Õ s, itÕ s far less common in modern times, and itÕ s likely to remain so if Sen. Betty Little has her way.

Little is the sponsor of Senate Bill Number:S6663 which is intended to amend the NYS Environmental Conservation Law, in relation to guides and outfitters.

DEC last revised guide licensing laws in the early 1980Õ s and the updated standards were eventually enacted into law in 1985.

There have been very few revisions to the statute of what defines the term Ò guideÓ even though the range of guided adventures has grown exponentially since that time.

Guides now provide adventures that go far beyond the traditional pursuits of hunting, fishing and hiking.

Currently, the business of guiding is defined as ‘providing services for hire whereby a guide directs, instructs or aids another person in fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, whitewater canoeing and rafting, or rock and ice climbing.Õ However, the new standard is expected to define guides as a person Ô who offers services for hire, part or all of which includes directing, instructing or aiding another on the lands or waters of New York State.Õ The updated revisions may also encompass guided activities such as birding, SUP/paddle boarding, caving, mountain biking and a host of similar outdoor pursuits conducted Ô for hireÕ on Forest Preserve lands. Some of these pursuits werenÕ t even considered adventure pursuits when DEC last revisited the guide-licensing program in the early 1980Õ s.

The proposed legislation will likely include an increase in the guide licensing fees necessary to fund administration of the program.

Currently, there are more than 2,100 licensed NYS guides. Many are state residents, but thereÕ s also a large contingent of non-resident guides who provide services in the state during specific timeframes such as the whitewater season, fishing season, hunting season, etc.

As the licensing authority, it is important for DEC to ensure all NY state guides are properly trained, fully licensed and not under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol at the time they are providing guide services.

It is equally critical for businesses offering guides service to ensure they provide only sober licensed guides.

According to the proposed legislation, Ò The purpose of the bill is to amend the Environmental Conservation Law (ECL) to amend the definition of a guide, prohibit the act of guiding while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and increase penalty provisions related thereto.Ó Section 1 of the proposed legislation would Ò prohibit any person from guiding while in an intoxicated or impaired condition as defined and prohibit outfitters from knowingly providing guides for service who are or appear to be intoxicated or impaired.Ó The proposed legislation will also define the extent of penalties for violation of the standards established by ECL ¤ 11-1205 and it will address the definition of “outfitter” to mean any person soliciting to provide or providing guide services for hire.

The legislation will require outfitters to ensure their guides are fully licensed for the services they will be providing.

Many guides believe the proposed legislation is the result of a tragic incident that occurred on the Hudson River in which a guest drowned while rafting with a guide who had been drinking.

In addition, the proposed legislation will require all guides and outfitters to provide clients with a written contract defining the terms of services to be provided.

Licensed guides, who are considered to be independent businesses, will be required to provide New York state with a Federal Tax ID number.

ItÕ s expected the revisions offered in the proposed legislation will benefit both the guides and their clients.

The updates will also benefit many of today’s aspiring guides, who are no longer just a Ò bait and bullet bunch.Ó Many of the new breed of guides are college grads and they have specialized in a variety of areas including backcountry ski touring ice climbing, birding and naturalist studies, wildlife photography, SUP trippers and mountain biking.

The mix includes a youthful influx of traditional hunting and fishing guides, as well as trained Chefs who can whip up a 5 Star meal over a campfire, or prepare lightweight, high energy, meals for extended adventures.

TodayÕ s guides also know how to develop a small business, and how to market their adventures online.

While many are from the local area, others were attracted to the region for educational opportunities at local institutions such as SUNY Adirondack in Glens Falls which features an excellent program in Adventure Sports: Leadership and Management.

SUNY Plattsburgh now offers a masters level program in Expeditionary Studies, to compliment its well-established undergraduate program. North Country Community College in Saranac Lake, likely the only institution in the country to offer a college level guideboat-building course, continues to offer an associate degree program in Wilderness Recreation Leadership, which is among the oldest of its kind in the country.

Of course there will always be opportunities for prospective guides to further their education at Paul Smiths College, which was founded to honor a legendary Adirondack guide.

The college offers programs in Forestry and Natural Resource Management, Recreation and Adventure Travel, Fisheries and Wildlife Services, Culinary Arts and more. Course work is enhanced by a 13,000-acre campus that is set in the middle of some of the best fishing, skiing, hunting and paddling in the park, which is not a bad place for future guides to hang out.

We think Buster is Mr. Personality and will find his forever home before the May flowers bloom! This little guy positively adores attention and will reward you with plenty of doggy smiles, licks, and tail wags. And that face! ItÕ s very kissable and smooshable.

4303 Main Street, Port Henry, NY 12974 (Public Water Supply ID# 1500290) Introduction To comply with State and Federal regulations, we will be annually issuing a report describing the quality of your drinking water. The purpose of this report is to raise your understanding of drinking water and awareness of the need to protect our drinking water sources. This report provides an overview of last year's water quality. Included are details about where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it compares to State standards. If you have any questions about this report or concerning your drinking water, please contact Mr. Chip Perry, Water Operator, at (518) 5468698. We want you to be informed about your drinking water. If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly scheduled village board meetings.

The meetings are held on the second Monday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the village hall at 4303 Main Street, Port Henry.

Where does our water come from?

In general, the sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activities. Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants; inorganic contaminants; pesticides and herbicides; organic chemical contaminants; and radioactive contaminants.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the State and the EPA prescribe regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems.

The State Health Department's and the FDA's regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

The source of water for the village is Pilfershire Brook, also known as Bartlett Brook. Raw water is collected at an impoundment dam and intake structure located off of Cheney Road approximately two miles northwest of the village. Raw water flows by gravity from the intake structure via a ten-inch transmission main for approximately 8,650-feet to the water filtration plant.

The water filtration plant is located off of Storm Road to the west of the village border. Raw water flows by gravity to the treatment building where it is filtered via two continuous backwash upflow filters. The water is disinfected using sodium hypochlorite solution. A corrosion control chemical (zinc orthophosphate) is also added to control the levels of lead and copper in the finished water. The finished water is discharged to a 700,000gallon concrete storage reservoir. Finished water flows by gravity to the distribution system via 1,400-feet of 10-inch transmission main.

Are there contaminants in our drinking water?

As the State regulations require, we routinely test your drinking water for numerous contaminants. These contaminants include: total coliform, turbidity, inorganic compounds, nitrate, nitrite, lead and copper, volatile organic compounds, total trihalomethanes, and synthetic organic compounds. The table presented below depicts which compounds were detected in your drinking water. The State allows us to test for some contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these

pounds, total trihalomethanes, and synthetic organic compounds. The table presented below depicts which compounds were detected in your drinking water. The State allows us to test for some contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants do not change frequently.

Some of our data, though representative, are more than one year old.

It should be noted that all drinking water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants.

The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk.

More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-4264791) or the New York State Health Department at (518) 891-1800.

A copy of the assessment, including a map of the assessment area, can be obtained by contacting us as noted below.

Do I Need to Take Special Precautions?

Although our drinking water met or exceeded state and federal regulations, some people may be more vulnerable to disease causing microorganisms or pathogens in drinking water than the general population.

Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.

These people should seek advice from their health care provider about their drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium, Giardia and other microbial pathogens are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. The Village of Port Henry is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure isHOLD available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safe water/lead.

WHY SAVE WATER AND HOW TO AVOID WASTING IT? Although our system has an adequate amount of water to meet present and future demands, there are a number of reasons why it is important to conserve water: Saving water saves energy and some of the costs associated with both of these necessities of life; Saving water reduces the cost of energy required to pump water and the need to construct costly new wells, pumping systems and water towers; and Saving water lessens the strain on the water system during a dry spell or drought, helping to avoid severe water use restrictions so that essential fire fighting needs are met.

You can play a role in conserving water by becoming conscious of the amount of water your household is using, and by looking for ways to use less whenever you can. It is not hard to conserve water. Conservation tips include: Automatic dishwashers use 15 gallons for every cycle, regardless of how many dishes are loaded. So get a run for your money

use less whenever you can. It is not hard to conserve water. Conservation tips include: Automatic dishwashers use 15 gallons for every cycle, regardless of how many dishes are loaded. So get a run for your money and load it to capacity.

Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth.

Check every faucet in your home for leaks. Just a slow drip can waste 15 to 20 gallons a day.

Fix it up and you can save almost 6,000 gallons per year.

Check your toilets for leaks by putting a few drops of food coloring in the tank, watch for a few minutes to see if the color shows up in the bowl. It is not uncommon to lose up to 100 gallons a day from one of these otherwise invisible toilet leaks.

Fix it and you save more than 30,000 gallons a year.

CLOSING Thank you for allowing us to continue to provide your family with quality drinking water this year. In order to maintain a safe and dependable water supply we sometimes need to make improvements that will benefit all of our customers. The costs of these improvements may be reflected in the rate structure. Rate adjustments may be necessary in order to address these improvements. We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our community, our way of life and our children's future. Please call our office if you have questions.
