Bryant prepares for 2nd season with Team USA Moriah student recovering from February luge accident, ready to rejoin team

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

PORT HENRY — Her first season did not end the way Moriah student and Team USA luger Dyani Bryant wanted it to, but she recently found out she will be getting another chance.

Bryant, who suffered injuries in a Feb. 10 accident at the Mount Van Hoevenburg sliding complex, was recently named to the D-Team of the junior USA Luge program, meaning she will return to Lake Placid this June and again in November to take on the world.

“My first training camp is at the end of June. I have worked very hard to get ready both physically and mentally and I am ex-

cited to get back out there,” said Bryant. “I’m trying to not over-think my accident but I’m ready to get back on the track.”

Bryant, who was a member of the C-Team last season, said she was relieved to see her name on the list of competitors.

“I’m excited to see what is going to happen over the next year,” she said. “My coach had talked to me and said I would most likely be back on the team, but it was the anticipation of the wait to see the official roster that really killed me. We had to wait from February until May to see who made the team and who did not.”

Over the summer, Bryant will be holding several fundraisers, like a car wash and fundraising event with the King’s Inn during the month of June.

Raising money for the chance to compete is key for those hoping to be part of an Olympic team, especially for junior competitors as most USA fundraising goes to the senior team. >> See BRYANT | pg. 14

Son of local mom earns Medal of Valour

By Mikaela Foster

mikaela@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — Local resident Pauline Hughes does not believe in running from a fight. And neither does her son, Niel Johnson, who recently received the Medal of Valor from President Barack Obama.

Johnson, an officer with the North Miami Police Department in Miami, FL, was one of 13 recipients of the Medal of Valor at the White House, May 16.

The prestigious honor is awarded to public safety officers who have exhibited exceptional courage, regardless of personal safety, in an attempt to save or protect others from harm.

Johnson received the award for “swift and valorous action to end a violent crime spree.”

Last year, Johnson “pursued a man who had shot a Miami police officer and two other innocent bystanders, withstanding fire from an assault weapon and apprehended the assailant,” according to materials provided by the White House.

“He goes ahead, he just thinks of going forward,” said Hughes. “What else would you do in that situation?”

Hughes said she raised her children to face fear and not to hide from it.

“I think all my children learned that when there’s a situation you have to go into, you have to do what you have to do.

“You just have to seize the moment and stand up to them.”

The family’s motto, Hughes said, is “You may lose many battles, but you win the war.”

The proud mom says she believes these words have shaped her son into the man he is today.

“He’s very kind, but can be very tough,” she said. “He’s a very humble guy... but you just don’t mess with him.”

According to CBS Miami, Johnson was also honored May 18 in a ceremony where North Miami Mayor Smith Joseph proclaimed the day to be “Officer Niel Johnson Day.” >> See VALOUR | pg. 5

Ti senior directs play for project “The Importance of Being Ernest” shows June 4, 5

By Mikaela Foster

mikaela@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — For Mackenzie Strum, directing “The Importance of Being Ernest” for her senior project seems to be a fitting culmination of her high school experience.

The student has been involved in theatre her whole life. She started with church plays when she could walk, and began performing in school plays when she was in the second grade.

Strum said she loves the community aspect.

“You can have one phenomenal actor, but they can’t carry the show,” she said. “Every person’s part is important and you can’t do a [successful] show without each individual.”

Cast member Willa Shakeshaft said Strum really knows her stuff.

Shakeshaft said she knew she could trust Strum to guide them to a successful performance of the Oscar Wilde classic.

“I don’t think anyone in this school is as committed to drama as Mackenzie is,” Shakeshaft said.

But the director is humble, giving credit to her cast as a whole, who have assembled the production in just two months.

“Everyone has been doing an amazing job,” she said, explaining that with a small cast and a full length play, everyone has more lines and more acting.

With rehearsals four days a week, it’s a lot of work.

“I think it’s coming together really well. I hope everyone likes it,” she said. “We’ve put a lot into this.”

As passionate as the soon-to-be grad is about theatre, Strum said she’s more giddy about English.

A minor in theatre will likely suffice, she said.

Ticonderoga Senior Mackenzie Strum is directing the play “The Importance of Being Ernest” for her senior project. Show times are June 4 Photo by Mikaela Foster and 5.

The aspiring teacher said she’ll be happy to help out with the drama department at her future school.

Show times are Saturday, June 4 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, June 5 at 2 p.m. at the Ticonderoga High School auditorium. Tickets will be on sale at the door: $5 for students, $7 for adults, $15 per family. All ticket proceeds go to the drama club.

n a short two week span President Obama has enacted two new laws without any representation from we the people.

When elected, Mr. Obama promised to fundamentally transform the nation. With only a few months left in office, it appears he is pulling out all the stops to finish what he started.

Last week he mandated that all schools in this country no longer consider their students as “boys” or “girls” but instead they are now gender neutral. Schools are prohibited from making any inquiry to ensure that student’s genitals play no role at all in anything, including which bathroom, locker room or shower they choose to make use of. Administrators can’t ask for any medical documentation, treatment information, or identification, as that would violate someone’s privacy.

This directive will go a long way to helping the estimated 0.3% of our population who have an issue identifying the gender they were born with versus the gender they identify with. If any of the 99.7% of the population have an issue with these new rules or feel uncomfortable in anyway they are the ones with a serious problem and are likely to be labeled as “intolerant” or a “transgenderphobic.”

One last thing on this subject; failure to comply with the new ruling and the taxes we all paid to the federal government will no longer be coming back to our school district since we can’t accept that one’s gender is now pure choice.

New week - - new decree, effective Dec. 1, if you earn less than $913 per week you are no longer a salaried professional. You are now an hourly employee eligible for overtime. Additionally, unless you earn $134,004 per year you are no longer exempt to work freely as a highly-compensated-employee, free to work as many hours as you choose without Big Brother Government having some say.

I have always worked long hours, not because anyone forced me, but because I wanted to excel at whatever job I was doing.

Perhaps like many of you I was taught long ago work ethic was an important fact of life. I’ve always practiced the old adage “Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn’t work hard.”

You see I’ve never considered myself very gifted with natural talent. In school grades, sports or at work, I am proud to say I’ve gotten ahead by working harder and putting in the extra time to become successful. I strive >> ALEXANDER | pg. 7

Immigration and the 2016 presidential campaign

T

he issue of illegal immigration has New Yorkers divided — the division spans everyone from college students, dairy farmers and retail clerks to journalists, construction workers and law enforcement officers, among others.

Many in the agribusiness sector get defensive when this issue comes up in an editorial, blaming the problem not on their use of immigrant labor, but on the notion that New Yorkers point the finger at co-op labor suppliers as being the responsible parties for vetting foreign farm laborers entering the Empire State.

No matter, there’s lots of interesting (you may find disturbing) national news on the immigration front at this moment.

We’re sure that the topic will be front and center — along with the ongoing loss of a variety of traditional American jobs — during the national election campaign of 2016.

Thanks to the Federation of American Immigration Reform for the following news tid bits that, we’re sure, few of you know about: •The Library of Congress has decided it will no longer use the term “illegal alien” although the legal term appears in U.S. Federal statutes.

•The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ruling makes it easier to employ cheap, foreign labor for STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) jobs here, rather than hire American college graduates.

•Faced with a surge of illegal border crossings, the Obama administration has responded by asking for a reduction in the number of U.S. Border Patrol agents.

•The Border Patrol has been instructed by the DHS that “catch and release” of illegal aliens will remain the Obama’s administration policy.

•The Obama administration is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to lift an injunction preventing it from implementing twin immigrant amnesty programs: The Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals programs. The Court will rule on this issue sometime in June.

•The State of Florida has stifled legal legislative efforts to outlaw its sanctuary city policies which protect illegal aliens. Florida Senate Judiciary ComLETTERS

mittee Chair, Sen. Miguel Diaz de la Portilla (D), has refused to take up any immigration bills.

•The Obama administration wants illegal aliens who are granted “deferred action and work authorization” to be eligible for federal benefits such as Social Security, Medicare and disability payments.

Former New Mexico U.S. Rep. Dr. Heather Wilson (R) has been an observer of America’s current border war for a number of years.

Today, Dr. Wilson is president of the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City, but she still has insights about the immigration problems that she wrestled with while doing the people’s business under the U.S. Capitol dome between 1998 and 2009.

This former Congresswoman, now turned college administrator, has spoken out about what many U.S. voters—especially those siding with the presumptive GOP presidential candidate—believe in their hearts and minds: “I support legal immigration,” Dr. Wilson said. “(But) I don’t support amnesty because it is not fair to people standing in line at consulates around the world.”

TasteÊ of Ê TiÊ aÊ success

To the Editor: I have lived in this area since 1999 and raised my two children in my home and neighborhood.

So as to many, my family are well-known to this town and community. We aren’t troublemakers, we are people that stay close with our family.

We are good Christians and help others when in need. We try our hardest to keep our surroundings up, we have been hit with some hard times this year, and like many people who live fixed can find it difficult to take care of every thing at once.

“Our yard seems to be on the not-so-nice list if you wish to put it that way.”

This is why there is a fence put up and, yes, our efforts for trash removal is underway. I have one final thing to say is that on the gate of the fence, there is a “no trespassing” sign.

Whomever put a brand new rat trap in our yard, I hope that our daughter or our cat doesn’t step into it or get hurt.

You know who you are. You are my neighbors.

To the Editor: The Ticonderoga Heritage Museum would like to thank our community restaurants, businesses, organizations, farm stands and many volunteers that made our Annual “Taste of Ti” so successful. In addition, we thank our community members who attended our event.

GUEST VIEWPOINT

COMMENTARY

‘My beautiful boy died of a heroin overdose’ But my personal story is not an unusual one BOB ROSE> Wilmington resident

bobrose2@gmail.com

B

eing born in the 1940s and growing up in the 1950s, drugs were something we heard of. But heroin, basically, was something only the low side of humanity used.

My son Jeff was born in 1974 and grew up to be one of the joys of my life and a constant pal to my beautiful daughter.

With my demanding career, perhaps I missed critical things in the development of my children.

Jeff grew up to be a kind, young man with many friends — but there appeared to be something going awry with his social development that I didn’t quite understand. His grades were poor despite the fact that he tested as a genius on several scales. He possessed an amazing talent for art and music, finished high school and went on to Munson-Williams-Proctor Institute, where he excelled.

Life was good!

We shared lots of ski, backpacking and mountain climbing trips and concerts. In spite of being an artist son and a fighter pilot dad, we seemed to hit it off pretty well with a mutual respect for each other.

After graduation, he was off to Eugene, Oregon, and later, San Francisco, where his art career really took off. He sold many paintings for thousands of dollars.

But a lot went unnoticed by me during my many trips out west to see Jeff, most significantly, that his artistic genius was being fueled by drugs and alcohol.

His move to Portland, Oregon and his marriage turned from temporary joy to a nightmare when I found out they were both on heroin.

An initial attempt to get them into rehab was rejected. They called about a year later begging for help as they were unable to kick the addiction despite

several painful attempts to go cold turkey. Fortunately, I was able to get them into a rehab program at Allied Health Care. After two years of steady progress, Jeff and his wife moved back east and finished rehab through Transition Living Resources and Crouse Hospital in Syracuse. She finished the program in early spring of last of 2014, and Jeff finished around the first of November.

Sounds like everything was going great, doesn’t it? Yeah, that’s sure what I thought.

Last spring, my son’s wife died of an overdose of oxycodone combined with kratom tea and alcohol shortly after leaving rehab.

My son, Jeff, my pal — my beautiful boy — died of acute heroin intoxication a few days after Thanksgiving.

I’ve been told over and over by the people helping me to live with this nightmare, but I just can’t buy it. The fact that the staff at rehab thought he was a model client and was heading for a successful conclusion doesn’t make me feel any better…I guess as a society we are all to blame. Just like mental illness, addiction is finally being looked at as the illness that it is.

Of course, it’s easy to look back now with 40 more years of life and spot unusual behavior that I should have paid more attention to and that I should have sought help to address as a young Dad — but that’s not how it works.

Experience is something you get right after you need it — unless, of course, you learn from the experience of others like me… and there are many of us.

My personal story is not an unusual one: Heroin use is at epidemic levels.

When I was about 12, my Dad took me on a fishing trip, but it was more about birds and bees than fish. He pretty much told me everything I would do wrong in my life, but there was one thing that stuck with me forever: “Bobby,” he said, “if and when you get yourself in trouble, come to me with the truth. I may be mad, and I’ll probably punish you, but one thing you can always count on is that I’ll stand by you. I won’t judge you by the things you do wrong but by the way you deal with them.”

Stand by your children. Don’t make them afraid to come to you for help when they get into trouble. Watch them like a hawk and if something seems wrong, it probably is.

If you can’t figure it out, then get help and there is plenty of it out there.

And, more than anything else…love the hell out of them!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

NationalÊ debt:Ê donÕ tÊ blameÊ Obama To the Editor: There is no source more neutral than the Office of the Budget to which my daughter reminded me recently.

Looking at the figures below, which are taken from that source, belies empty words attributing the “doubling of the national debt” to Obama.

You can choose to believe that, and say it a thousand times (which seems to be the object or strategy) and it still won’t make it true.

In 2009, federal receipts dropped by approximately $419 billion (presumably because of the “Great Recession”) and has increased in every subsequent year to reach a level $726 billion higher in 2015 than in 2008.

In 2009, federal outlays increased by approximately $535 billion, including the cost of the military surge in Afghanistan and the costs of providing financial assistance to those hurt by the housing bubble burst and the recession, in general. Consequently, the federal deficit jumped by $956 billion from 2008 to 2009, but has been decreasing every year since, to a level of $438 billion in 2015. It is projected to increase about $200 billion in the next two years.

Obama and his administration have led us out of the mess. To refuse him credit for that and to heap fictitious responsibilities upon him ad infinitum is careless and irresponsible, at best, in my opinion.

Don Austin Elizabethtown

BlameÊ ObamaÊ forÊ oilÊ railÊ policy To the Editor: Two recent letters to The Sun discuss oil trains and their risk to the North Country an important local and national issue. Unfortunately, both writers miss a basic concern, the role the federal government plays in creating this dangerous situation.

Michael Calitri, of Peru, urges support for the transportation of Bakken crude oil by train from Montreal south to Albany. He minimizes the dangers of such transport, describes it as efficient, and implies it is cheap.

He is flat out wrong. He also urges local officials to turn a deaf ear to critics of the rail transport system.

Wouldn’t he like to make the prices of gasoline and fuel oil go down?

Monique Weston, of Keene, counters all of Mr. Calitri’s points directly and firmly, pointing out that local officials have no authority over the “bomb trains,” as she denotes them. Weston states that environmental groups have lobbied many elected and appointed officials from local mayors to state representatives and even senators to “ban the transport of crude oil by train along Lake Champlain and the Hudson River.”

Is anyone listening?

The problem here is that both of these writers are ignoring the big picture, a map of North America. The Bakken oil fields in Alberta, Canada (where huge forest fires are currently burning), is directly north of Mexico. A straight line can be drawn from these oil fields to Texas and Oklahoma where a network of pipe lines exist; they connect the many oil wells there to refineries and ports on the Gulf of Mexico that were built to handle crude oil and its by-products.

In fact, a private company had already begun construction of a pipeline in Canada directly linking the Bakken oil fields to the oil industries in Texas and Oklahoma. The owners of the XL Pipeline had even gone to great lengths to obtain approval from the US’s EPA to minimize negative effects on the environment and had met all or almost all of the EPA’s requirements. They would build to modern standards an efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly addition to our nation’s infrastructure at no cost to taxpayers!

They stopped construction last year because of one insurmountable hurdle: the president of the United States, Barack Obama, issued an executive order blocking construction of the XL Pipeline. Our president bypassed any other elected officials at the local, state or national level to do this. He gave

as his reason that he is protecting the environment-not our environment, but the environment, (whatever that is) he sees as important.

For the environment of our president, acrid diesel fumes from oil trains passing thru our towns and villages are not a problem. For his environment, rumbling oil trains that shake the foundations of our homes are not a problem. For his environment, the roar and rattle of noisy oil trains is not a problem. And for his environment, the risk of an oil spill polluting Lake Champlain or the Hudson River watershed or many other watersheds along the circuitous routes of oil trains is nothing to worry about.

We need a new president with a different agenda.

Forman Phillips Indian Lake/Balston Spa

ArticleÊ misrepresentedÊ theÊ facts To The Editor: Thank you, for this opportunity to voice my concerns.

I just finished reading the article in “The Sun” dated Saturday May 14, 2016 on page 3 of The Adirtondack Journal Sun about the Thurman Town Board Meeting.

The police did not, at any time, clear the Town Hall as your article stated.

Upon their arrival the town supervisor (Ms. Wood) discussed the situation with the officers. At that point, an officer talked with the resident that had disrupted the meeting. The officer explained, what they could and could not do during the meeting. The meeting proceeded, although with very heated comments towards the town supervisor and town the board members, who have supported the actions in question.

In the past after closing most meetings, the supervisor would leave. Closing and secure the building was the town clerk’s responsibility. After the closing of most meetings the people would always stay for discussions about whatever they wanted and eventually moving outdoors and when they were ready get in their cars and go home. A few minutes after closing this meeting, the town supervisor decided it was time to remove the residents still having conversation in the town hall, saying she had to close the town hall and secure the building.

At no time did the police ask anyone to leave. It was the town supervisor Ms. Wood, telling everyone to leave so she could lock up. I at this point felt very threatened, I mean, think about it, with the police in her corner telling the residents to get out of their own Town Hall.

I would like to thank the officers that responded, their duties bring them into many difficult situations and they handled this one in a way that kept the residents safe.

Keith L. Parent Sr., Thurman

Alexander From page 6

on that approach and I know many others who feel the same way. But now, with the wave of Mr. Obama’s pen, generations will be told, sorry you can’t do that.

This country was born out of a pioneering spirit. I’ve often wondered if I lived in another time would I have been brave enough to set out over the ocean to come to America or travel west with my family in a covered wagon risking life itself for the promised opportunity?

Just as our children are being physiologically neutered in school, our workforce is being told to step off the gas. America needs to accept just a few more of these rules to completely defeat the American entrepreneurial spirit while leaving us dazed and confused. How can we compete in a global economy when the hands of our workforce are tied?

Little Bits The semicolon Gordie Little

Columnist

I

am far from an expert on punctuation. I use what works for me at any given time. When it comes to the comma, I recall a teacher once saying, “When in doubt, leave it out.” As for the semicolon, that’s a horse of another color.

I view the semicolon as separating important elements of the sentence and in place of the aforementioned comma under certain circumstances. To me, it signifies a pause in the action. It offers time to catch your breath and promises more to come. I suppose that’s why it consists of a period with a comma underneath.

A few weeks ago, we did a TV show interviewing people who set up booths at a Plattsburgh event to display their crafts, wares and services. I always learn a great deal on such occasions and came away from this one feeling delighted to have met so many nice people and to have learned so much.

Enter, the semicolon. Perhaps you’ve noticed that it is showing up in crafts, especially in jewelry, tattoos and clothing. It has adopted a special meaning for many who feel that it is a good fit for something in their lives.

I interviewed a local artisan who has a genius for crafting bracelets, rings and amulets worn around the neck. Most are made from silverware—knives, spoons and forks. I asked how long it takes to make a spoon ring and was blown away when he said, “Three minutes.” It would take me three hours and I would ruin several in the process.

His work is beautiful and I particularly loved the bracelets he created. Each piece was unique.

His work with the semicolon caught my eye and I decided to pursue it with my friend, Elaine Ward, who had him come to her home to work his magic from some of her silver treasures.

The more she talked about semicolons, the more my attention was attracted. Many others are doing similar work and I decided to try and learn how it all began. The Internet led me to something called “Project Semicolon” and a woman named Amy Bleuel who is its founder and president.

I was intrigued by her mission statement: “Project Semicolon is a global non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and love for those who are struggling with mental illness. Project Semicolon exists to encourage love and inspire.” Her mantra is that “hope is alive.” She says part of her vision is to start “a revolution of LOVE and declare that our stories are not over yet.”

It began three years ago, she says, “to honor her father whom she lost to suicide.” But, it soon grew wings and became applied to inspiring people with struggles of many kinds.

“Your story is not over,” she says. I like that theme and wish the project well through the semicolon and its hopeful message.

Montcalm Mile expects to draw record field Registration now open for 30th annual race

Rocque to report to West Point TICONDEROGA — Brody Douglas Rocque, son of Marshall and Tara Rocque of Ticonderoga, has received an appointment to the Class of 2020 at the United States Military Academy at West Point.

Rocque is scheduled to graduate from Ticonderoga High School Saturday, June 25. Rocque was a member of the Varsity Football, Basketball, and Baseball teams. He was also on the class Executive Board and a member of the National Honor Society. The appointed members of the Class of 2020 will report to West Point for the first time Monday, June 27.

TICONDEROGA — A record field is again expected for the 2016 Montcalm Mile.

Part of Ticonderoga’s Best Fourth in the North celebration, registration for the Montcalm Mile is now open. Runners can save money and time by registering in advance online at montcalmmile.racewire.com or at the LaChute Road Runners Club website — www. lachute.us Entry fees will increase race day.

The 30th annual one mile road race, held July 4th just prior to Ticonderoga’s Best Fourth in the North parade, will again offer prize money in an effort to attract another top field of competitors.

With a men’s course record of 3 minutes, 54.1 seconds, the Montcalm Mile is believed to be the fastest mile anywhere in New York and Vermont, outside New York City.

The 2015 race featured a photo finish, an NCAA champion and runnerup, college All-Americans, an Olympic qualifier, a new course record, three sub-4-minute miles and a record field.

The 2015 race sold out with 450 registers runners; 435 completing the course.

They came from 23 states, Canada and the United Kingdom.

Alex Brimstein, Joshua McDougal and Joseph Gentsch pulled away from the field in the final 400 meters, battling to the tape. In a thrilling finish, Brimstein edged ahead on the final step to win in 3 minutes, 57.4 seconds.

McDougal was second in 3:57.6 with Gentsch third in 3:59.2. The course record is 3:54.1, set by Lee Berube.

The women’s race wasn’t as close, but just as exciting. Defending champion Sara Dunham of Peru broke her own course record, winning in 4:39.7.

She was followed

by Brenna Clark of Ocean, N.J., in 4:57.9 and Danae Polsin of Rochester in 5:01.6.

The 2016 Montcalm Mile will again award prize money to men and women in three classes — open elite, masters elite for ages 40-49 and veterans elite for ages 50 and older.

The open elite class will pay $300 to the men’s and women’s winners with $200 to second place and $100 to third place. In the masters and veterans classes first place men and women will receive $150 with second place getting $100 and third place $50.

Runners must register in the elite divisions to be eligible for prize money.

It’s a downhill course that virtually assures runners of personal bests and attracts most of the region’s top athletes.

Also attracting runners is the fact the race is run minutes prior to Ticonderoga’s annual Fourth of July parade, which means hundreds of spectators line the course offering encouragement.

The Montcalm Mile, the largest participation event in Ticonderoga every year, will team with RaceWire for computerized chip timing and scoring in 2016.

To facilitate the scoring system, runners are asked to register for the race online at montcalmmile.racewire.com or at the LaChute Road Runners Club website — www.lachute.us Limited race day registration starts at noon at the starting line at the intersection of Wicker Street and Race Track Road. Regsitration will end promptly

at 12:30 p.m. or whenever the race sells out. The event did sell out last year. For entry information contact Tracy Smith at 35 Highland Ave., Ticonderoga 12883, Email at trsmith.ts1957@gmail. com or call 518-569-0947.

Race information can also be found online at the LaChute Road Runners Club website — www.lachute.us and at www.best4thinthenorth.com/ The race will start at 1:45 p.m.

Medals will be presented to all finishers. Age group results will be posted on the web site www.lachute.us The LaChute Road Runners has sponsored running events for decades in Ticonderoga while raising money to support youth running. The LaChute Road Runners has financed trips for the Ticonderoga High School cross country and track teams, purchased equipment for the scholastic harriers, provided monetary assistance to teens attending camps and awards the annual Duane Crammond Memorial Scholarship. The club has awarded $17,000 in college scholarships the past 12 years.

ABOVE: The 30th annual Montcalm Mile will offer $2,400 in prize money this July 4th in Ticonderoga. The Montcalm Mile, the largest participation event in Ticonderoga every year, is expecting nearly 500 runners in 2016.

EYE ON THE ARTS

A form of truth

J

ohn F. Kennedy, born this week in 1917, once said that art is “a form of truth.”

It’s true that art often works toward exploring and expressing the human condition in an uninhibited way. However you feel about art, music, film and even literature, this expression is essential in our lives. It makes us feel less alone. Whether through mutual appreciation or denouncement or through casual discussion, it connects us. Local art even has the ability to connect us to our community. This week, I encourage my fellow Northerners to indulge in their favorite art form.

As always, I have a few suggestions.

The Champlain Valley Film Series will screen “Creed” on May 28 at the Whallonsburg Grange Hall. “Creed” is a crowd-pleasing story of loyalty, legacy and heartfelt determination.

Determined to follow in his famous father’s footsteps, boxer Adonis tracks down Creed’s rivalturned-friend, Rocky Balboa, to train for his own shot at the title. The Philadelphia Inquirer calls the film “as riveting as the old Rocky films.” Tickets are $6 for adults and $3 for minors.

For more information, contact info@cvfilms.org.

The Whallonsburg Grange Hall will also host a workshop on May 29. The workshop will cover the basics of identifying, sustainably harvesting and cooking with roughly a dozen wild spring edibles. The course will include a field portion and a kitchen portion, beginning with a hunt for nearby wild foods. Participants will then use what is collected, supplemented by local farm products, to collaboratively prepare a lunch feast in the Grange’s commercial kitchen. The class will be taught by Dillon Klepetar, co-owner of Farmstead Catering in Essex. Dillon has a deep history with animal husbandry and farm management, as well as professional catering services. The class will begin at 9 a.m. Attendees will meet at the Grange before heading out into the woods. Tickets are $15 per person, or $25 per family. Pre-registration is encouraged.

For more info, or to register for the event, call 518-963-4170 or email Kate Ritter at admin@ thegrangehall.info.

The Ticonderoga Festival Guild Players will produce their fourth play in two years, “A Golden Fleecing,” beginning on May 26. With music, gunshots and outrageous behavior, the play harkens back to the iconic saloon life of 1800s America. The Ticonderoga Festival Guild was established in 1980 as a non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of the performing arts in the Ticonderoga area. The support and effort of the founding members has been continued through memberships and volunteer time contributed by people throughout the area. “A Golden Fleecing” will have repeat performances at 7 p.m. from May 26 to May 28. The final performance is scheduled for May 29 at 2 p.m. For more information, contact Jill at 518585-3203 or email the Guild at tifestivalguild@gmail.com.

Local author Kate Messner will read from and discuss her children’s book, “Long Road to Freedom,” at the North Star Underground Railroad Museum in Ausable Chasm on May 29.

“Long Road to Freedom” follows the story of two children who escape from slavery and journey through the North Country. Admission is free. The reading will begin at 2 p.m. For more information, contact Peter Slocum at 518-708-5607.

In June, the Ti Arts Gallery in downtown Ticonderoga will showcase the collaborative work of a local photographer and a German-Canadian painter and sculptor in “World WILD: Nature’s Vibrant Colors.” The artists will display over 50 of their images, each featuring both North American birds and wild animals from around the world. The public is invited to attend two special events: a free wine and cheese reception on June 3 at 5 p.m., and an informal chat with the artists on June 4 from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. For more information on the exhibit, visit ticonderogaarts.org or email ticonderogaarts@ gmail.com.

The Strand Center for the Arts in Plattsburgh will open a new exhibit in June titled “In Perspective: Art of the Visually Impaired.” The exhibit features artwork from the Northeastern Association of the Blind at Albany Blind Artist Society and the North Country Association of the Visually Impaired, Inc. “The most important aspect behind the ‘In Perspective’ exhibit is to educate the public about artists with disabilities,” says The Strand’s Gallery Coordinator, David Monette. “Specifically how people with visual impairments interact with and create art.” The exhibit will be on view from June 3 to June 24. The opening reception, which will be held on June 3 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., is free.

The Strand Center for the Arts will also host a performance by the world-famous Hal McIntyre Orchestra on May 28. The Hal McIntyre Orchestra, under the direction of Don Pendleton, will bring a big band sound to Plattsburgh with their musical tribute to Frank Sinatra. Hal McIntyre, one of the founding members of The Glenn Miller Orchestra, performed with his ensemble for the first time in New Rochelle, New York in 1941. Fondly known as the “Band All America Loves,” The Hal McIntyre Orchestra has toured worldwide for decades. The show will begin at 2 p.m. Tickets are $25. For more information, visit strandcenter.org.

The Defibulators will perform at the Waterhole in Saranac Lake on June 2. The Brooklynbased group boasts a unique sound that has been described by The Washington Post as “rowdy, punk-fueled twang highlighted by heaps of blue-collar wit.” The free show is 21+ and begins at 6 p.m.

The Charles R. Wood Theater in Glens Falls will host a staged reading on May 28 sponsored by the Warren-Washington Association for Mental Health. “Shades of Blue: The Show” will feature readings by the authors of “Shades of Blue,” as well as locals who have had experience, or loves someone, with a mental illness. The show, directed by Logan Beth Fisher, will begin at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20. All proceeds will benefit the Warren-Washington Association for Mental Health. Part of the agency’s mission is to promote the awareness and importance of mental well being in the community. The WWAMH hopes to use the authors’ voices to educate the public on the complexity of mental illness, further diminishing the stigma that surrounds mental illness. Proceeds raised at this event will be used to financially support the various programs that they offer. For more information, visit woodtheater.org. www.suncommunitynews.com/A&Efor the latest events

Port Henry referendum petition certified, vote to be set 242 registered voters’ signatures on pre-certified entreaty

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

PORT HENRY — Village officials have been handed a petition calling for a vote on the dissolution plan which would signal the end of the incorporated government.

The petition — containing 242 signatures — was filed the morning of Wednesday, May 18 with village clerk Denise Daly, two days before the May 20 deadline to force a permissive referendum.

On May 25, the petition was certified by Village Clerk Denise Daly with 221 valid signatures.

It was submitted by former Port Henry Mayor Gary Cooke, who has been an opponent of the dissolution and has been calling for a common ground solution.

On Oct. 27 of last year, residents voted 190-171 to move forward with a dissolution plan to dissolve the village into the town of Moriah.

The 242 names on the supplication is an increase of 71 over the negative vote total, or a 41.5 percent increase in people voicing their opinion against dissolution.

“If 242 people show up to vote, the plan is going to be voted down,” said Deputy Mayor Matthew Brassard, referring to the fact no vote on a dissolution plan has ever been defeated, according to New York State.

When asked if there had been a change in the number of registered voters in the village since the dissolution topic came to the forefront, Daly said, “we have definitely seen an increase in registered voters since October.”

Daly now has 10 days to verify the signatures and certify the petition. Following the certification, the village board will have 30 days to act on the plea for a vote on the plan.

“I need to make sure all the signatures are

from registered voters of the village, that they signed their name in full and that there are enough valid signatures,” said Daly.

At the end of a public hearing on the plan April 5, the village board voted, 4-1 (Mayor Ernest Guerin was the lone dissenting vote), to accept the plan and move forward to the next step, which was a 45-day permissive referendum which would require signatures from 25-percent of the registered voters in the village.

Daly said, as of May 18, there are 634 registered voters in the village, meaning 159 valid signatures would be needed in order to certify the petition.

After the petition is verified by Daly, Brassard said the village board will explore their

options at its June 13 meeting.

“At that time, we will set a date for the vote,” Brassard said. “It will most likely happen in mid to late July. The vote can take place no sooner than 30 days and no less than 90.”

Since October, Brassard has worked closely with Supervisor Tom Scozzafava and the LeBerge Group on developing the dissolution plan.

“Tommy [Scozzafava] and I have worked really hard on this and we feel this is a great plan,” Brassard said at the April 5 public hearing.

“This wasn’t taken lightly,” Scozzafava added. “A lot of homework was done. We spoke to people in the town and village. This was not just thrown together and workable in the

best interests of the town and village. I will do everything in my power, and we have the same commitment from this board, to follow this plan.”

Cooke countered that there were other options which would give village residents lower taxes — a major plank in the dissolution platform — and still allow them to govern.

“If this were to happen, the reduction in taxes would be the same,” Cooke said. “The village would be in a position to facilitate a system of government which would keep its services and keep its voice in government.”

Former Port Henry Mayor Gary Cooke, pictured here at a recent public hearing, filed a petition in the village hall calling for a vote on the dissolution plan.

Bryant << Continued from | p. 1

Last season, Bryant said the travel cost for the season amounted to almost $8,000.

Bryant was able to compete in several events during the 2016 season, taking her around North America for events in Calgary, Alberta (Cancada) and Park City, Utah.

“In Calgary, I was able to finish sixth among Team USA and 11th overall,” Bryant said.

She also competed in a pair of events in Lake Placid, including the Empire State Winter Games, where she finished eighth and showed speed at the bottom of the course, making up two position in the last few turns.

Then came Feb. 10 and training for the Youth Nationals.

“I still remember when I came to a stop, all I could think was, what just happened?”

Bryant had crashed on her sled, breaking her ulna, radius and tailbone. She had to have seven pins, three screws and a titanium plate placed in her left arm.

Bryant said she will always remember when the surgery took place.

“I went for a follow-up appointment after the accident Feb. 15, and Dr. Smith asked me if I had any plans for tomorrow,” Bryant said.

“I told him it was my 15th birthday. He then

said well, your having surgery.”

Bryant was later diagnosed with a broken tailbone and has recently started rehab on her left arm.

“Any accident was bad timing, and I was very upset that I missed the two most important national competitions of the season,” she said. “I am looking forward to a better year so I can slide the seeding races, which is necessary to move up the team ladder.”

Now back at Moriah Central for the end of the school year, Bryant relied on receiving homework from her teachers during the months she was training and competing.

“It was a bit of a challenge, but my school and teachers were awesome and we were able

to make it work,” Bryant said. “During training, all of my school work was performed online and independently. They were great helping me deal with being away from school, and I feel they were all behind me for what I was going through. I also was able to use a tutor provided by USA Luge for two hours each night after sliding practice.”

Bryant was not only able to keep up on her homework and classes, but excel.

“I was able to maintain my spot on the high honor roll,” she said.

Through it all, Bryant said she was very appreciative of the support she received from her hometown.

“The community support I have received

has been the backbone of my career for USA Luge,” she said. “I could not have completed the 2015-16 season without all of the support from my sponsors, family and friends. I am hoping I have as much support for the upcoming 2016-17 season and make my hometown proud.”

For more information on Bryant’s career and upcoming events, she has created a Facebook page, facebook.com/Dyanibryantluge/.

After a late season crash, Team USA luge athlete and Moriah Central School student Dyani Bryant is ready to return to a track for a second season as a member of the national junior team.

Mildon, Moriah CS celebrate successful first year of BackPack program Also contributes to next school year

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

PORT HENRY — Brooke Mildon had a very ambitious plan at the start of this school year.

The Moriah Central student and member of the local Girl Scouts wanted to help students who needed proper nutrition over the weekends and longer breaks get it through the BackPack Program.

On May 18, Mildon and school members celebrated the successful first year of the program which was started as part of Mildon’s Gold Award in scouting.

Mildon also presented a check to the school board for $4,102.08 to help continue the program into the next school year.

“This program was a huge success because of everyone who helped out,” Mildon said.

“I could not have done it alone and I am extremely grateful to each and every person who helped with this program.”

John Bartlett, who works with the Ticonderoga BackPack Program and Moriah Superintendent William Larrow credited Mildon for her work.

“Because of the passion of Brooke, the drive of the volunteers was spectacular,”

Bartlett said. “Brooke got to see the excitement of the kids when they first delivered the backpacks. It takes a lot of work and effort, but it is moments like those that make it all worth it. Brooke made it easy and she proved all the doubters wrong.”

“You have done and outstanding job and we knew you would,” Larrow said. “You have touched many, many kids with this effort which will continue on for years to come.”

Larrow added her previous service project, wooden casings for old school bells, along

with the BackPack Program, will leave a legacy at the school.

“You have not only touched so many students but many members of the entire community,” he said. “You have done two major things we will never forget.”

Mildon’s father, Bob, summed it up.

“These ladies (Brooke and her mother Val) have done a lot of hard work,” he said. “I am very proud of her.”

Brooke Mildon said the Moriah BackPack

Program started with 30 students and grew by three quickly. She said all of the youth were sent home with nutritious meals for weekends and vacations thanks to the help of volunteers and staff at the school who would pack each of the backpacks with food which the students would take home on Fridays.

“After surveying the parents... they were in 100 percent agreement they loved the program,” she said.

Mildon explained when she started the program, she did not realize the food bank would not have the food to supply kids with enough nutrition over extended vacations.

“I decided to run a food drive to get the food needed for Thanksgiving, Christmas and February breaks,” Mildon said. “I received an overwhelming response from many people and agencies ... with any new program there are always obstacles you encounter that need to be addressed, but with the help of so many people, we were able to deal with all the situation we encountered.”

Brooke Mildon, with members of the Moriah Central School Board of Education, presents a check for $4102.08 to partially pay the expenses for the BackPack Program in 2016-17 school year. Mildon started the program this year at the school as part of her Girl Scout Gold project. See more photos at suncommunitynews.com.

Slic to Schroon: We’re moving ahead with internet Progress on fiber installation hinging on when other service providers make room on utility poles for equipment installation

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

SCHROON — Work may commence in as little as 90 days on the next phase of the ongoing project to provide highspeed broadband to unserved neighborhoods in Schroon, said the internet service provider responsible for the work.

Mark Cornett, a Slic Network Solutions vice president, said Thursday he anticipated investor funding to come in by the end of the week. Those funds would allow the provider to move forward on the second phase of the project, clearing space on utility poles for fiber installation, a process known as “make-ready.”

Exact dates remain difficult to pin down.

“I’d be reckless if I tried to give you a good date because of the variability of the make-ready,” Cornett said. “At the earliest, make-ready would be done in the fourth quarter.”

Slic was awarded grant funds in December 2012 to bring fiber to seven underserved upstate areas as part of the Connect NY Broadband Program.

The project has been marred by long periods of inactivity, in part, due to a glacial reimbursement grant process from the state to private contractors. Another is due to the unprecedented scope of the project, which Connett said is the first “significant grant program” administered by the state Broadband Program Office.

While the first grant disbursal agreement signed was signed in September 2014, it took a full year for the Potsdam-based internet service provider to be reimbursed.

The delay has sparked frustration from the community, many of whom are angered by a perceived lack of communication with Slic on the project.

Members of the town’s broadband committee said they

The Schroon Lake Senior Citizens Club Events Committee met recently to plan events for June. Wednesday, June 1, there will be a General Meeting beginning at 4 p.m., followed by dinner at Flanagan’s in Schroon Lake. Every Thursday there is bingo at the Club beginning at 12:30 p.m. Friday, June 3, there will be a shopping trip to Glens Falls. The bus leaves at 9 a.m. Saturday, June 4, the bus leaves at 11 a.m., for a spring

initially thought cable would be laid within two years of the grant being awarded.

The $2.3 million project stands to benefit some 500 homes currently served by satellite and phone service, or about 30 percent of the town’s year-round population.

State officials, including Gov. Andrew Cuomo, have said providing universal broadband access is among the state’s top priorities, a goal they hope to achieve by 2019 with a $1 billion project that seeks to leverage private capital with state assets.

Once the make-ready phase is completed in Schroon, fiber construction will follow. Service will be deployed immediately after fiber is laid.

“We’re not going to wait,” Cornett said. “We’ll light it and take subscriptions.”

But, as Cornett noted, progress is contingent on how fast Time Warner, Verizon and National Grid rearrange their equipment on the poles, a timeline that may be further complicated by the ongoing Verizon workers strike.

The “best-case scenario,” he said, is within the 90-day target set by the state’s Public Service Commission.

Slic can influence and “make suggestions” to the process, but their hands are largely tied.

The town’s broadband committee also hopes the planned network, which now includes a proposed 63 miles of fiber, could be expanded to sections left off of the original map, including parts of Trout Brook Road, Horseshoe Pond Road, Mountainside Acres and a cluster of residences at the far end of Paradox (where it hugs the Crown Point line) and the small streets off Hoffman and Charley Hill Roads.

Doing so would require PSC approval.

Additional changes to maps often present a challenge, Cornett said, because the commission requires all franchise agreements among a town to be identical among service providers.

Once Schroon hammers out an extension agreement with Slic, they would then need to negotiate that same agreement with Time Warner.

Nutrition is also provided Monday through Friday. To make reservations, call Keisha at 532-0179 24 hours in advance. Everyone is welcome.

At present, the town’s franchise agreement with Time Warner, which currently provides service within the hamlet, is expired and needs to be renegotiated.

Committee member Don Sage noted the cable giant hasn’t responded to his emails, most likely because they’re occupied by their merger with Comcast, which was finalized earlier this month.

Too many charges to the original template might result in PSC rejection, Cornett warned.

Cornett also urged caution for any future applications.

Costs for expanding to areas with low population densities quickly escalate, he said, especially when poles need to be installed in tracts of wooded areas.

“The sky’s not the limit,” Cornett said. “We have to be somewhat cautious as to what we can ask New York to fund.”

If the extension were to move forward, Cornett said he feels “confident” that Slic could provide service to the additional three-mile stretch of Horseshoe Pond Road and to Letsonville Road past Johnson Road.

Costs for that extension have been pegged at $90,000. It’s too early to say who would foot the bill, Cornett said, noting Slic themselves might absorb that cost.

Slic said they have secured enough funding to all seven of their projects, including Long Lake in Hamilton County, where the sign-up process for subscriptions has started.

North Hudson also stands to be looped into the network as part of the $2.3 million grant, though both Slic and town officials are fuzzy on the exact details.

“We haven’t heard anything,” Ron Moore, the town supervisor, told Cornett. “I came today just to let you know we’re out there.”

Cornett said he’d be happy to meet with Moore.

Moving forward, Cornett said the installation of a new director at the state Broadband Program Office has resulted in an expedition of disbursement practices.

“We have noticed a change and it’s a positive one,” Cornett said.

SLCC announces Schroon Lake 2016 Citizens of the year Kathy, Dan Riggins (posthumously) to be honored Tuesday, June 14 SCHROON — The Schroon Lake Chamber of Commerce announce that its Board of Directors have selected Kathy and Dan Riggins (posthumously) as the Schroon Lake Citizen(s) of the Year for 2016.

On Monday, Aug. 24, 2015 the Town of Schroon unexpectedly lost an amazing friend, volunteer and leader. Daniel Owen Riggins, 66, passed away suddenly while playing the sport (tennis) he loved with dear friends. The shock of this loss quickly rippled through the community as Dan and his wife Kathy have spent their retired days serving as volunteers with many organizations in the Schroon Lake region. Their selflessness and giving ways had touched so many lives.

Riggins was born in Kingston and grew up in Walkill and Kathy was born and raised in Witherbee. They graduated from high school and went on to attend SUNY Cortland where they met in 1967 and began to date. In 1972, they married and began their lives as husband and wife, starting a family and continuing their careers as teachers, going on to teach for 34 years. Kathy served as the Physical Education teacher at Galway Central School District and Dan was a middle school >> See SCHROON | pg. 29

Spring Car and Marine Care 2016 SimpleÊ waysÊ toÊ extendÊ theÊ lifeÊ of Ê yourÊ vehicle on your vehicle and improve your fuel efficiency as well. * Stick to the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule. Adhering to your vehicle’s maintenance schedule serves many purposes, including improving the its durability and protecting various components, including its cooling system and drivetrain. While many manufacturers used to recommend changing a vehicle’s oil every 3,000 miles, many of today’s newer automobiles need their oil changed less frequently.

Check your owner’s manual for manufacturer recommendations regarding oil changes, and don’t forget to replace the oil filter when changing your vehicle’s oil. * Pay attention to brake pads. Brake pads that are allowed to wear down can cause damage to the brakes’ rotors and calipers. That damage can prove costly and make things harder on your vehicle. Keep an eye on your vehicle’s brake pads, which are far less expensive to replace than rotors and calipers, and do not allow them to wear down to metal. � Keep your tires properly inflated. Tires

that are under-inflated will negatively impact your vehicle’s fuel efficiency. In addition, the tires’ life expectancy is reduced considerably when tires are not properly inflated. Routinely check your tire pressure, especially if you drive a lot, and keep tires inflated at the pressure recommended in your vehicle’s owner’s manual. * Be mindful when filling up your tank. Many people do not pay much attention to their surroundings when pulling into the filling station. But when you fill up can impact your car’s life expectancy.

Perhaps the worst time to fill your tank is when the fuel tanker is in the gas station refilling the underground tanks. That’s because the process of filling the underground tanks can stir up sediment that had settled at the bottom of those tanks. If that sediment finds its way into your vehicle’s gas tank, it can clog filters and fuel injectors and negatively affect the vehicle’s performance. So unless your car is running on empty, avoid refilling its gas tank when the tanker is still in the station. * Take care of your vehicle’s interior, too.

Caring for a car is not just about being good to what’s under the hood. Caring for the car’s interior will not necessarily impact its performance, but a well-kept interior will improve how you look at your vehicle and how much you enjoy driving it. The longer you enjoy driving your vehicle, the longer you are likely to keep it. Preserve the vehicle’s door and window seals; clean the dashboard, including the gauges, vacuum the floor mats; and wipe down the vehicle’s interior, whether it’s cloth or leather. Keeping up the appearance of the car’s interior will make the vehicle more enjoyable to drive and increase its value at resale.

ccording to data from TrueCar. com, in 2012 the average new car cost $30,500. That’s a considerable expense, especially at a time when fuel costs remain high and cost of living continues to rise.

Because new cars have become so expensive, more and more vehicle owners are looking for ways to extend the life of their vehicles. The longer a car can stay on the road, the better an investment that vehicle becomes.

Fortunately, there are several steps vehicle owners can take that should ensure their vehicles stay on the road for years to come. * Scale back on short trips. The toll cold starts take on a vehicle can add up over time.

When a car is started, condensation builds up in the vehicle’s exhaust system. On longer trips, that condensation will gradually evaporate. However, on short trips, that condensation often does not have enough time to evaporate, and over time too many short trips will lead to an accumulation of water in the muffler that can lead to rust and rust holes on the muffler. Short trips also can negatively affect gas mileage. When possible, leave your car at home on trips into town when you can just as easily walk or ride a bicycle. Over time, reducing the amount of short trips you take in your car will greatly reduce wear and tear

BoatÊde tailingÊa nÊim portantÊpa rtÊ of Êm aintenance

M

ost boat owners desire to maintain that freshfrom-the-showroom look on their boat, even if the vessel is several years old. Detailing a boat on a regular basis is a way to ensure it is not compromised by the elements and continues to look pristine.

Detailing a boat is similar to detailing a car. It generally begins with giving the boat a good washing. It’s important to choose a cleanser that is designed for the boat. Wood boats may need a different soap than fiberglass boats. There also are boat soaps that are organic and will not pollute the waterways where the boat is docked. Surface grime should be washed off and any scaling on the hull from contact with salt water and marine life. Use soft cloths on the delicate areas. Brushes can be used on troublesome spots that need a little more elbow grease.

Immediately dry the boat afterward with a chamois. This will prevent the surface from streaking and ensure a dry surface on which to apply wax or buffing compounds.

Unless it is a small boat, wax or buffers should be applied with a commercial buffer. This will prevent arm and hand fatigue and make faster work of the job. Wax should be applied in circular movements, allowed to dry and then wiped off with a cheesecloth or another chamois. It’s best to do small areas of the boat to ensure the proper wax curing time has taken place and it can be wiped clean in a timely fashion. One must judge the air temperature and the sun to determine just how long the wax should remain on.

Next use a cloth to wipe down all upholstery. If desired, use an upholstery cleaner on leather to give it a nice shine.

There are also metal cleaners that can polish chrome and other detailing on the boat.

Use a dusting cloth to go over the instrument panel and be sure to wipe down any glass windows so they are streakfree.

Afterward, step back and enjoy all of the hard work.

Proper maintenance and cleaning ensures that the vessel will continue to look good and perform for many years to come.

Upkeep on a boat, such as regular washing and waxing, can keep it looking like new for many years.

TopicsÊ toÊ discussÊ beforeÊ hiringÊ yourÊ nextÊ mechanic

Certification Certification can go a long way toward helping drivers find mechanics they can trust. The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence was founded in 1972 and continues to work to improve the quality of automotive service and repair by testing automotive technicians and certifying those who live up to or exceed ASE standards.

An ASE-certified technician should have his or her credentials readily available to prospective customers, and these credentials list each professional’s area of certification. When shopping for a new mechanic, make sure that he or she is ASEcertified. In addition, discuss with the mechanic his or her work history, including any additional areas of expertise.

Pricing policies Many mechanics offer free estimates, but that should not be taken for granted. When bringing a car in for an estimate, drivers should confirm with the mechanic who will conduct the examination if the estimate is free or if they will be charged an inspection fee.

In addition to any fees regarding estimates, drivers should also inquire about labor costs and the payment policies at the facility. Labor can be quite expensive, so it’s best that you know these rates in advance of any repairs being conducted on your vehicle. It’s also important to get a rundown of the company payment policies, especially if your vehicle is in need of potentially costly repairs. You don’t want the bill to shock you once the work has been completed, so don’t hesitate to be inquisitive before leaving a car at the garage.

Parts Replacing parts on a vehicle is a cause for concern for many drivers, and rightfully so. Consumer advocacy groups have exposed many mechanics who pass off used auto parts as new parts, charging their customers new part prices along the way.

While there’s no way drivers can guarantee they won’t fall victim to such criminal behavior, they can inquire about company policies regarding vehicle parts. Does the garage even install used parts? If so, do they let drivers choose either new or used parts before any work is done? If the garage only uses new parts, ask for parts with solid warranties, so if the part must be replaced, you won’t have to pay for it again.

Documentation The preowned vehicle market is thriving, and drivers who take care of their vehicles have earned the right to reap their rewards for being good owners when it comes time to sell the car. When interviewing prospective mechanics, ask if they are willing to provide detailed documentation of any work they do on your vehicle. Such documentation can then be shared with prospective buyers when you want to sell the car, and it also serves as a way to keep the garage accountable for all the work they have done on the car throughout your relationship.

F

ew decisions weigh as heavily on automobile owners as their choice of mechanic.

A good mechanic goes a long way toward ensuring drivers and their passengers stay safe on the road and that those drivers’ vehicles perform at their peak for years to come. That’s an important role to play, and it’s why many drivers acknowledge that choosing a mechanic is a decision that should not be taken lightly.

Rest assured you don’t need to be a car guy or gal to find a trustworthy and talented mechanic.

You might just need to open a dialogue with a prospective mechanic, discussing a handful of topics that can help you feel more comfortable and know you have made the right choice in automotive service provider once a final decision has been made.

Spring Car and Marine Care 2016 LearnÊ howÊ toÊ anchorÊ aÊ boatÊ properly

B

oat anchoring is an important skill to learn and one that can offer peace of mind when enjoying the open wa-

ter.

Setting an anchor is more than dropping the anchor and hoping for the best. There are tips that translate to good seamanship that also prevent risk of dragging an anchor or losing a boat in the current.

The first step to properly anchoring a boat is ensuring the right equipment is in place.

Choosing an anchor requires a little forethought. Different types of anchors should be prepared for all the situations a boater may encounter. The size and weight of the anchor

will be influenced by a number of conditions: * the type of boat * size of the vessel * bottom surface where you intend to anchor * wind and wave conditions * available anchor equipment on the boat Generally, the larger the anchor the more powerful the staying ability, especially if one has to ride out a storm at anchor. If a vessel can only accommodate one anchor, it’s best to choose the largest one that will fit in an anchor locker or can be stored safely out of the way.

To help increase holding power of the anchor, leave several feet of chain or warp between the anchor and the anchor line. Experts recommend it be at least the length of the boat.

One of the common mistakes new skippers make is putting out too little scope when anchoring. Scope is the amount of anchor line put out when the boat is safely anchored. The scope should equal 5 to 7 times the depth of the water at high tide, plus the height of the water line to the bow of the boat.

When lowering the anchor, consider the direction of the wind, other vessels in the vicinity and the waves. Practice makes perfect when learning to properly anchor in different types of conditions. It is important to lay out the anchor chain by paying it out hand over hand so that it will eventually be laying out straight, as opposed to being in a big pile.

Once the anchor has reached the seabed, a little reverse motion can help it hold and dig in. If the anchor has taken hold correctly, the vessel will come to an abrupt halt.

Even after an anchor has set, wave surge can cause the warp to flex like a yo-yo and sway the boat. An anchor weight added to

the anchor tackle can help prevent drag, especially if the vessel will be unattended or left at anchor during rough weather.

Learning to anchor securely and safely will take time, but eventually boaters can learn the basics and master a technique that works.

Spring Car and Marine Care 2016 TipsÊ whenÊ drivingÊ inÊ rainyÊ conditions R

ainy weather can arrive any time of year. While an afternoon spent indoors watching the drops fall can be relaxing, driving in the rain is anything but.

It requires extra concentration and improved reaction time. Rainy conditions can be challenging and treacherous, and drivers should proceed with caution on rain-slicked roads.

Rain is blamed for many accidents, but many of these situations are largely preventable among drivers who adapt to the weather and roadway conditions. Here are some things to consider. * Reduced visibility occurs from wiper blades, glare (particularly at night) and heavy downpours. When you are unable to see the road ahead, including other vehicles, reduce your speed. If the rain is coming down in torrents, pull over to the side of the road and wait for a respite. Turn on your lights to ensure you are visible to other cars on the road. * Recognize that rain can cause slick conditions. A film of water develops on the roadways, and that can affect the performance of your vehicle’s tires. Less traction means the car can slip and slide. Hydroplaning, or coasting on the surface of the water, is common.

Another, lesser-known condition is slickness caused by grease and oil in the asphalt. During a long dry spell, these substances build up on the roads. When it rains, the oil and water doesn’t mix, bringing the oils to the surface and exacerbating slick conditions. The first few hours of a rainstorm can be quite dangerous until heavier rains wash the oils away. * Water spraying up onto tires and brakes can compromise braking ability. That means it could take longer to stop under wet conditions. Do not tailgate and leave extra room between vehicles. If you drive through a puddle of water, pump the brakes and test them out to be sure you can stop. Brake earlier so

that other drivers understand your intentions and can react accordingly. * Avoid extremely large puddles. First of all, you cannot judge the depth of the puddle and you may end up getting stuck, especially in the event of roadway flooding. Water splashing into the engine compartment may damage electrical components. Steer around puddles to be on the safe side. * Use extra care watching out for pedestrians. A normally observant person may be distracted by the rain, puddles and wrangling an umbrella and veer into the path of cars. Be mindful of the side of the roads and where pedestrians may be, such as around parked cars. * Change wiper blades twice per year. You do not want to be caught with shoddy wiper blades in poor conditions. Without an effective wiper blade, rain cannot be cleared effectively from the windshield. * Limit distractions inside of the car to focus even more of your attention on the road.

While some have become accustomed to answering phone calls or fielding questions from the backseat while driving, avoid such distractions when driving in the rain. Turn down the radio if you must and encourage passengers to remain quiet until safely home. * Leave extra time to get to your destination. Rain causes slowing down of traffic.

Rushing may increase your risk of being in an accident, so always leave extra travel time when driving in wet conditions. * Make way for emergency personnel. Accidents and bad weather are common. Slow down or pull over to allow emergency vehicles to pass by. If there are flashing lights on the side of the road, move into the left lane to give a wide girth around first responders.

Later this spring, the sixth grade class will have the chance to bring a new service project to the school and in turn, directly help other students and the community at large.

Thursday, June 2, the sixth grade class will host an American Red Cross Blood Drive at the school from noon to 5 p.m. Eligible donors with types O, B negative or A negative blood are especially needed. Also, males who are at least 130 lbs and 5’1” tall or females who are at least 150 lbs and 5’5” tall might also want to consider doing a double red cell donation. Additional donor eligibility guidelines can be found on the Red Cross website.

According to the Red Cross, Type O negative is the universal blood type and what emergency personnel reaches for in trauma situations when there isn’t time to determine a patient’s blood type. Type O positive is the most common blood type and can be transfused to Rh-positive patients of any blood type. Types A and B negative can be transfused to Rh-positive or negative patients.

Donors of all types are needed and the students have set a goal of collecting at least 35 pints of blood at this event. The Red Cross will also provide each presenting donor a voucher redeemable for one free prepackaged pint of Stewart’s ice cream or gelato. Should the students reach their goal of at least 35 pints, they will also earn a scholarship of $250 that will be presented to a graduating Crown Point senior later this June.

To schedule an appointment at the Blood Drive, interested donors can register online at redcrossblood.org (use the sponsor code: CROWNPOINTCSNY), call 1-800-RedCross directly, or register with any CPCS sixth grader.

historic buildings as well as provide funds for outreach programs in the community; fuel assistance, food and heating assistance as well as their partnership in the annual Thanksgiving dinner for those in the community who would not have adequate food to mark the holiday.

The First Congregational Church runs and staffs Second Blessings thrift shop. This outreach is provided on a donation basis only. Items in the shop are given, even without a donation to those in need.

For any questions regarding this year’s festival or if someone would like to be a vendor at the festival, contact Gary at 216-4072.

Second Blessings, on schedule to open CROWN POINT — The friends and members of the First Congregational Church have announced the reopening of the Second Blessings Thrift Center. This “shop”, which opened to the public last summer, will again begin its ministry Saturday, May 2, at 10 a.m.

Regular spring hours will be Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Appointments will also be accommodated.

Second Blessings is housed in the Historic Hammond Chapel. Located on the corner of Route 9N and Creek Road.

Second Blessings have received many fine donations from local individuals of clothing, household goods and “nick-knacks.” They receive clean, useful, and appropriate items in good condition for the shop

and these items will be accepted whenever the shop is open or by contacting Pastor Dave at 597-3398. Their “rule of thumb” is simple, if you won’t/can’t wear it due to its condition, do not bring it. They do not have anyway to wash or dry soiled items and they pay to dispose of items that are beyond serviceability.

This Ministry will continue to be run on a “donations” only basis. Wishing to maximize their ability to meet the needs of their customers, they believe that this will open the door to many who might not be able to shop.

Church members invite the community to stop by, shop and chitchat with the staff. Have fun and enjoy the second blessings that these items will bring. The chapel phone number is 597-3347.

The store continues to look for dedicated volunteers. Contact Pastor Dave at 597-3398 if interested.

OBITUARIES

PatriciaÊ A.Ê AllenÊ (Connors) MINEVILLE — Patricia A. Allen (Connors) left us on Saturday, May 14, 2016 and is now with all of the people that she had been missing so dearly, especially her late husband, Pete.

Her passing was very sudden and peaceful. She was very much loved by all who knew her and will be greatly missed.

She leaves behind two sons, Edward (Jean) and Peter Allen, two grandchildren, Vicki (Casey) Nephew, Eddie (Michelle Corson) Allen. She also leaves three beautiful great granddaughters, Addison, Aliya, Remmie and a fourth arrival in June that she was so looking forward to. She also leaves her two brothers, Robert (Ann) Connors, Richard Connors, sister Peggy Ladd, two sister in laws, Phyllis(Marvin) James, Gracie(Bruce) Lamb, two brother in laws, David(Adel) Allen and Gary Allen. There are also many nieces, nephews and their children that were all very special to her.

Her life centered around her family, always first, the church and her beloved Camp Dudley. She took great pride in her duties that involved the church and her faith. The ladies of the Altar and Rosary Society meant a lot to her and we thank you for your friendship.

Mom worked the better part of three decades at Camp Dudley. I use the word work, but I don’t think that she ever felt like it was a job. I am glad that they never figured out that she would have been there even if they stopped paying her. The people that worked there, the hundreds of kids every summer, they all became extended family many of whom she still followed in their careers and families.

The motto at the Camp is “The other fellow first”, that is how she lived life every day.

We will celebrate a Mass at All Saints in Mineville at 10:00 a.m., on Monday, May 23 followed by a graveside service at the Catholic Cemetery in Moriah. We will have a reception immediately following at the Moriah Firehouse.

MaryÊ T.Ê (Tompkins)Ê Arthur TICONDEROGA — Mary T. (Tompkins) Arthur of Ticonderoga passed away on Friday, May 20, 2016 at her home surrounded by family and loved ones. She was 92 ½ years old.

Mary was born in Scran-

ton, PA on September 11, 1923. She was raised by her aunt, Veronica McIntyre, after her mother’s early passing. Mary proudly served in the Navy during WWII, and while serving her country she met the love of her life. Mary and William Joseph Arthur wed in 1945 and three beautiful children, William Joseph, Diana Lynn, and Michael James ensued. After Bill’s untimely death in 1965, Mary became a dedicated and hard-working single mother.

Mary loved God, her family, her country, and Elvis (in that order). She was full of life and love and enjoyed every day God gave her on this earth. She was an amazing friend, celebrating your victories and keeping your secrets. Mary’s philosophy was that a good glass of boxed wine could fix most anything.

Her door was always open and she regularly entertained friends and family at her gorgeous home on Lake George. She believed you could never have too much sparkle and it was reflected in every aspect of her life. Mary was the life of the party, winning over everyone with her charm and optimism.

Mary was an adored sister, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. In her long and healthy life, she witnessed countless births and deaths, and recently suffered the loss of her beloved youngest son, Michael. She is now reunited with him,and dances forever with her loving husband in God’s kingdom. May she live in eternal life and peace.

The family welcomes well-wishers and friends to come celebrate Mary’s life at the Wilcox & Regan Funeral Home, 11 Algonkin St., Ticonderoga, on Thursday, May 26, 2016 from 4 – 6 pm. In Mary’s honor, sparkles and party attire are favored.

Mary will be honored at St. Mary’s Catholic Church of Ticonderoga on Friday, May 27, 2016 at 1 pm. The Rev. Kevin D. McEwan, Pastor, will officiate.

She will be laid to rest at St. Mary’s Parish Cemetery, with military honors, immediately following Mass.

To offer online condolences, please visit www.wilcoxandreganfuneralhome.com

She was a member of the White Church Association, Knapp Senior Citizens, and former member of the Mountain Dewers Square Dance Club.

She is survived by her son Donald and wife Maureen of Peru, NY, daughter-in-law Jeanne McMurtry of Crown Point, grandchildren Scott and Tera McMurtry of Colorado, Beth and Adam Conway of Wellesley, Ma, Shawn McMurtry and Hannah McMurtry Covington of Indianapolis, IN, and great grandchildren Jack and Kate Conway of Wellesley Ma, and several nieces and nephews.

Pearl is predeceased by her husband Philip of sixty one years, her son Ronald in 2011, her parents, a sister Vivian Meader and husband Percy, two brothers and wives, Vernon and Marion Gage and former sister-in-law Esther Gage and Paul and Shirley Gage, also three grandchildren Eric, Heidi and Hope McMurtry.

SentinelsÊ bringÊ ClassÊ CÊ baseballÊ titleÊ backÊ toÊ Ti PLATTSBURGH — The Ticonderoga varsity baseball team is back where it feels it belongs — atop the Section VII/Class C mountain.

After falling to Class D contender Northern Adirondack on a walk-off last season, the Sentinels made quick work of the AuSable Valley Patriots in the matchup of Revolutionary militamen.

The Sentinels jumped out to a 4-0 first inning lead as Jacob Spaulding drove in a pair of runs with a double. Spaulding would finish the game with a pair of doubles as part of a three-hit day at the plate.

From that point on, all eyes turned to Ticonderoga starting pitcher Ryan Trudeau, who was on a mission to slay the ghosts of the 2015 sectional finals.

The senior fire-baller was impressive as ever on the mound, holding the Patriots without a hit for the first four innings of play. Following a long, 10-run bottom of the fourth, Trudeau gave up a leadoff infield single to the Patriot’s Eric Potthast in the fifth before slamming the door for the next two innings.

Trudeau finished with eight strikeouts in six innings, being relieved in the seventh by Dalton Granger.

Evan Graney added a two-run triple to the Sentinel offensive attack, while catcher Brody Rocque hit a double.

For the Sentinels, it represented the 11th Class C title in the past 12 years.

The Senitnels will now have over a week off before heading to play the winner of the Section II and Section X winner on Saturday, June 4, with a trip to the final four on the line.

The regional final will be played at a site to be determined following the NYSPHSAA regional semifinal game.

Flowering plants and fly fishing

M

other Nature seems to throwing us a curve ball once again. One day its 70 degrees, and dry, the next day it’s back to winter with snow in the air.

I was in Lake Placid for an early season fly fishing trip on Mother’s Day. As I was gazing out the window while having my usual chili for lunch, I saw the snow glazing over my windshield. Mother Nature was not good to Mothers that day.

This morning, I threw another log on the fire, the second week of May. Once again the weatherman is threatening us with his forecast of a chance of cold rain or even snow. The early season flowers, like daffodils are blooming despite the weatherman’s forecast.

When it comes to blossoms, the science of phenology states there is a relationship between climate and biologic phenomena. Its common sense, as day lengths get longer and temperatures increase; whether its air, soil or water, they influence the flowering of plants like the apple tree and daffodil. Water temperature not only influences plants, but various stream insect hatches as well.

The cool thing about this is that many of the hatches of stream insects coincide with the blossoming of many plants.

So if you intend to go fishing, see what’s blooming or starting to blossom and you will have an idea what is hatching on your nearby stream.

Some charts show Hendrickson’s hatching when Forsythias are in full bloom, Sulphur’s hatch when Lilacs bloom; Green Drakes coincide with Locust flowers. PA charts show Slate Drakes with Daisy�s blooming and Trico�s fly when the Spotted Knapweed starts blooming and finally Hexagenia’s take flight when the Goldenrod blooms. Flowers tell time�

This sounds simple and fool proof, but you must remember, elevation makes a big difference in temperature, so if you live in the valley and see lilacs blooming, don’t expect to climb a thousand plus feet into the mountains and expect to see a Green Drake hatch. To really know what’s happening in your watershed, you need to keep a log book with temperatures, dates of flowering plants and what is hatching on a certain section of river. The water is usually warmer downstream than upstream, so location makes a difference.

A cold mountain stream entering a river can change things, its reset time for your log, so think small sections of river.

Based on my log book or calendar, June is just around the corner and warmer weather should be coming our way. The Hendrickson’s should be hatching out on the Ausable which coincides with some fly fishing events coming our way.

The 2 Fly Challenge in Wilmington was the 20th and 21st of May, while the USA Nationals are June 1- 4 in Lake Placid, and they both coincide with a flowering plant and a stream insect hatch. Which flower blooms and what insect hatches will depend on the temperature. Things could be early or late. it’s in Mother Nature’s hands.

Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

This 33 foot strip of land along the stream allows legal access to anglers for fishing only. Anglers can legally fish these areas without the worry of mistakenly trespassing on private property. If you want a map of fishing access areas, check the NYS DEC website, each river with PFR’s is on line.

Hatchery trucks from the NYS DEC and the Warren and Essex County hatcheries have been out full force, so the fishing should be excellent. The cool weather has kept the stream temperatures down, which is good for the fish. Now we just need to see what flowers are blooming and what hatches are hatching.

Special thanks to all the volunteers who helped out, and especially to Howard Moser of the Lucerne Rod and Gun Club and Tom Conway of the Two Fly Shop for organizing the volunteers. Thank You to NYS DEC Fisheries Biologist Jim PInheiro for his guidance with getting the fish where they have the best chance to survive and for spreading them out along the rivers length, where the public benefits.

Trout Stocking

Ausable River stocking crew

The Schroon River and the Ausable have been stocked with the help of numerous volunteers. Stocking involves releasing trout in areas where the public has access and where the trout have the best chance of survival. Trout are released in areas where the habitat is best, pools, rocky and boulder pocket waters and deep runs where they have a better chance of survival.

If the land is posted, stocking is not done. The taxpayers pay for the fish, so the goal is to put the fish where the public has access to the stream.

Public access areas have signs showing where Public Fishing Rights (PFR’s) have been purchased by NY State D.E.C.
