Trash issues stir up discussion

By Christopher Pratt

CROWN POINT — Michael Roets, the new manager of the Crown Point Historic Site, has built a career digging and shaping aspects of important battlefields, homes and other historically significant structures throughout the Empire State.

Roets, 39, said he’s “traveled all around the state” excavating many of its 37 historic sites. That list includes the John Brown Farm State Historic Site; Schuyler Mansion State Historic Site and the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park.

Prior to his new role he served as a historic sites archaeologist for the state.

Rather than continue traveling and excavating in that role, Roets said he “jumped at the chance” to pursue the Crown Point manager position.

He succeeds Tom Hughes, who retired after 10 years in the post.

Roets will be able to have more direct interaction with the public in his new role. He said he is looking forward to sharing relevant experiences about his previous digs that can help people better understand the history at Crown Point. “I’m very, very excited to take on the challenge,” he said.

Amtrak and Fort Ti partner on new shuttle

By Christopher Pratt christopher@denpubs.com

TICONDEROGA Ñ Amtrak, Fort Ticonderoga and local officials are hoping a new shuttle service will improve the tourist experience and be a catalyst for economic development.

The new shuttle, which was launched last week as part of the Rails to Wheels program, will collect passengers at the Ticonderoga Amtrak station. It will streamline their ability to get to hotel rooms and see the his-

The new shuttle service will greet both the northbound and southbound trains each day through Sept. 7.

It springboards on a partnership between Amtrak and

the fort launched in 2012.

Passengers this year will also be able to take advantage of Amtrak fare deals to and from Ticonderoga.

Amtrak’s Adirondack line will offer one free companion rail fare with the purchase of one regular adult rail fare.

Sandy Morehouse, who serves as president of the Fort Ticonderoga board of directors, addressed a group of about 30 people who gathered to mark the shuttle debut May 22 at the Ticonderoga Amtrak station.

Uncollected items stir pickup need discussion in Ticonderoga

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA - Some residents say they’re frustrated Ticonderoga’s streets remained loaded with disposable items nearly two weeks after a free curbside pickup day was organized.

Officials organized a clean up day for May 15, when items including glass, plastic, tin, aluminum, old furniture and appliances could be hauled away.

Residents were asked to have their items on the curb by a set time. They were advised hazardous items and others set out after the morning of the 15th would not be picked up.

Bruce Barber, a 38-year resident of Wayne Avenue in Ticonderoga, said last week he’s been waiting patiently for crews to take some unwanted books, furniture and other items away. Barber said the limited curbside pickup program is “a good idea,” but only “if it’s done right.”

In recent weeks, Barber has noticed people in search of scrap metal and other valuable materials have been digging through refuse left in yards. One day a couple of bicycle parts left in his own yard were plucked away, likely by scavengers who could swap them for money.

“People have been coming along in pickup trucks,” Barber said.

Some abuse of the program may be occurring as well, residents said. They have noticed a plethora of unwanted items were put out on the streets after crews made an initial sweep.

“Even after they came through and picked it up, people dragged more stuff out,” Barber said.

Besides Barber’s yard, a few other residences on the winding street were still dotted with unwanted items prior to the Memorial Day weekend. And, on nearby Schuyler Street, about a dozen residences still had old furniture and toys waiting to be collected.

Town supervisor Bill Grinnell said some residents have taken advantage of the clean-up initiative. Grinnell said he too observed streets where people had set out items to be taken away after the initial pickup day. Grinnell said in the May 22 phone interview that he and town highway department officials were working to enact a plan to get the streets cleaned up. He said he was confident crews would have the streets in order by the beginning of June.

It’s not only densely populated streets where furniture and other shabby looking goods have been heaped high. The stretch of road leading to Fort Ticonderoga had some piles of items and so did Route 74 west of the Walmart. Rumors have also been circulating that people from outside the town are dumping their trash in desolate areas. “It’s created a lot of problems, a lot of friction,” Barber said.

Longtime Ticonderoga resident Dick Johndrow said the piles this year have stuck around longer than in recent years. He said that might be attributed to residents having “a lot more notice.”

Still, as he walked -- seemingly unfazed -- by the heaps of unwanted items on Schuyler Street last week, Johndrow said he’s not going to lose any sleep over the situation. “Like I say, they only got so many trucks and so many people working for the town. And so, what can you do?”

Uncollected items dot the yards of Ticonderoga residents on May 22.

Residents say some people have taken advantage of a free curbside pickup day.

Shuttle service Continued from page 1 The collaborative effort to bring the shuttle to the station is “a remarkable accomplishment,” Morehouse said. But he said it shouldn’t come as a shock that the first of its kind effort was hatched here.

Ticonderoga has been a “pioneer in tourism” for three centuries, said Morehouse, who described how the Fort has made important contributions to horticulture and gardening, historical renovation and restoration and education.

Beth Hill, president and CEO of Fort Ticonderoga, said the new partnership is part of a long-term effort to improve the tourist destination. “We are just so excited to launch this program,” she said. “This initiative, I believe, is the first of many to come, which will open that door and make our community as a whole vibrant and grow our tourism economy.”

U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-Willsboro, was among the dignitaries who lauded the new initiative. “This new program will help guests visiting Ticonderoga and the surrounding area, help the local economy and promote tourism,” she said.

Stefanik also mentioned during her remarks that she had shown support for Am-

trak by supporting the Passenger Rail Reform and Investment Act earlier this year.

Stefanik said she wanted the U.S. Senate to take action to approve the legislation.

Soon after dignitaries began giving remarks, they heard a northbound locomotive approaching. The crowd assembled for the speakers eagerly greeted them and watched to see if they would be the first to utilize the shuttle.

But the couple, Hugh Macky and Michelle Marwitz, said they were all set. A relative had come to claim them. But they

appreciated the hospitality and said they would send word back to friends in New York City that the level of hospitality had been heightened at the Amtrak stop. “I’m going to tell all of them,” Macky said.

Hill, the Fort CEO, said in an interview that she expects officials will analyze visitor data, gain valuable feedback from guests and make some tweaks to improve the shuttle program over the next few months. She said she anticipates the shuttle will be successful and expand operations in some capacity in 2016.

New Ti shuttle service, rail The importance of local businesses connection can be example L for other communities

F

ort Ticonderoga and Amtrak have teamed up to give rail passengers a more inviting experience to the historic former military installation, which is widely seen as one of the region’s great cultural attractions.

In addition to getting a two for one ticket deal on a fare to and from the Ticonderoga Amtrak station, beginning May 22 rail passengers are also able to hop aboard a free shuttle to Fort Ticonderoga once they arrive at the station. The new shuttle service, which is part of a Rails to Wheels program, comes as a relief to not only tourists, but to local residents who have cringed at the sight of visitors lugging their bags up a roughly one mile stretch of road between the train station and the grounds of the fort.

The shuttle is truly a team effort involving collaboration between stakeholders including Amtrak, Fort Ticonderoga, the Best Western Plus Ticonderoga Inn and Suites, the New York State Department of Transportation and the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce.

The Fort’s beautiful gardens, interactive exhibits and majestic views will all be more accessible thanks to the shuttle. It’s a seemingly simple investment to put one extra vehicle out on the road. On the surface, there’s no direct monetary impact. But it undoubtedly will make visitors feel a little bit more welcome. As anyone who has ever felt welcome -- or unwelcome -- in an unfamiliar place can attest, the little things truly matter.

Yes, this partnership will concretely allow visitors to remove questions about renting cars and hailing cabs. There’s also something to be said for placing a smiling face in a waiting vehicle for visitors at the end of a long train ride. That type of Adirondack hospitality is sure to help spread the Fort’s story.

In boasting the transportation initiative last week, Fort Ticonderoga president and CEO Beth Hill said the partnership would help improve the region as a whole. She and other officials said the first-of-its kind program could serve as an example for other places around the Adirondacks.

Officials mentioned no specific places or attractions that might be ripe for another shuttle.

That’s understandable. Some analysis of the new shuttle service and thought should go into deciding whether it should be duplicated.

Yet with the summer season heating up for 2015, the time is ripe for regional business groups to dig in and assess if they could create similar shuttle programs in 2016 and beyond. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

ocal, home grown businesses in our rural areas provide so much more to the stability of our community economy than many realize. The value of keeping dollars at home, invested in local real estate, supporting community events and people, while providing the engine for everything local is the foundation upon which this country was built.

Prior to the year 2000, small businesses created more jobs than large corporations. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. Burdened by student loans and the fear of failure Dan Alexander coupled with the security of the government safety nets, Thoughts from the number of young entrepreneurs staking their future on Behind the Pressline themselves has seriously fallen off from previous generations.

Tougher government regulations, health insurance, and human resource practices have imposed an overhead that is more easily spread across larger enterprises than small mom and pops, which only further serves to discourage new business start ups.

Those start up businesses create excitement and enthusiasm. New entrepreneurs full of fresh ideas looking to conquer the world served as incubators for the next generation of Apples, Googles and Sam’s Corner Stores. Those news businesses also populated our main streets and kept dollars flowing throughout the community as they grew, invested, borrowed and hired. It’s that segment of the economy that is sorely missing today.

The big guys in our communities play a valuable role, but they are few and far between and this column is not meant to slight their contribution to our economy. It’s the small businesses with their creative approaches and enthusiastic drive that brings out the best in a community. Small businesses face daunting challenges from nearly every angle and the potential risk of losing everything lies in nearly every important decision they make, from location and hiring to marketing and cash management. But no other career challenge can provide the same level of satisfaction as owning your business.

Increasing minimum wage, government handouts and more student debt will not bring prosperity back to our communities. I’m not referring to trickle down economics but instead upward matriculation of economic prosperity as a result of spreading the wealth around to a much larger pool of local owners who have a vested interest in the community while inspiring others to follow their lead.

When only mega companies and government jobs prevail our economies will remain anemic. Again, we need those large stable industries and government entities but this country’s historical roots and growth periods have always been when the little businesses are multiplying and thriving.

The American dream provided everyone an equal opportunity to write their own ticket.

Nothing was guaranteed but you gambled on your own skill, sweat and never say die attitude. Failure was just as likely as success, but lessons learned the first time around only served to stoke the fire when the next opportunity presented itself.

There was time when that pioneer spirit made this country the grandest experiment the world had ever seen and unless we rekindle that spirit, I fear our future is look-alike big box businesses and government supported entities. But just like the Oreo cookie, it’s all that good stuff in the middle between those big cookies that we really crave and makes all the difference.

Our communities and the economic vitality we are lacking these days is waiting for the American entrepreneur to get back into the fray and put this nation back on track. They can’t do it alone they need our support and encouragement. Please support our local businesses and remember how valuable they are to all of us who call this area home.

Letters to the Editor

To the Editor: While I agree with Dan Alexander that the Military Religious Freedom Foundation is being absurdly heavy-handed in their objection to Air Force Major General Craig Olson’s official proselytizing (the subject of Mr. Alexander’s May 23 Publisher’s Column), I object to his stepping well beyond the historical facts about our nation in his eagerness to condemn – or should I say damn? – this secular group.

Contrary to Mr. Alexander’s assertions, there is no “importance of this nation under God” to recognize, and vigilance on behalf of secular government in the United States is not an attempt “to reshape the vision of the founding fathers.”

In case Mr. Alexander is unaware, “under God” was not in our nation’s Pledge of Allegiance from the start; it was added in 1954 by a Congress that wanted to appear to be doing something in response to the public hysteria Joseph McCarthy whipped up by claiming to see godless communists behind every bush. (For much the same reason, Congress changed the official motto of the United States from “E pluribus unum” to “In God We Trust” in 1956. At the height of the Cold War, who would dare vote against such demagogic legislation?) Indeed, as has been pointed out countless times to people attempting to redefine our country as fundamentalist Christian, God is mentioned nowhere in

the Constitution.

Religion is addressed there, though, and perhaps it’s worth revisiting what the Constitution has to say about it. From the First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Because even back then that wasn’t clear enough for some people, Thomas Jefferson subsequently clarified further in his famous “wall of separation” letter: “Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man & his god, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between church and state.”

Mr. Alexander is certainly entitled to use his position as publisher of a newspaper to write on behalf of his personal beliefs, but on behalf of his readership he should endeavor to get his facts straight.

Ferebee, Preston to lead board of supers

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — It’s official: William Ferebee will lead the Essex County Board of Supervisors.

Essex County lawmakers unanimously selected Ferebee (R-Keene) for the body’s top slot and Randy Preston (I-Wilmington) as vice chair on Monday, May 26.

Ferebee has served as outgoing chair Randy Douglas’ deputy since Jan. 2012.

Douglas, who stepped down on Friday, put forth his nomination, calling him a “dear friend.”

Ferebee has the right skill set to lead the body, explained Douglas, who said relationships with state and federal officials will pay a “huge dividend” for county residents.

Ferebee thanked his colleagues for their support and said he’d save the big speech for next week when he formally takes office.

While Douglas did indeed teach him a lot, Ferebee said, one thing the deputy never managed to teach the outgoing chairman how to reply to just one person in an email chain.

Douglas blushed.

“I look forward to working with all of you,” said Ferebee.

Supervisor Roby Politi (R-North Elba) nominated Preston as vice.

While he and Preston haven’t had the honor of meeting the president and vice president together like Ferebee and Douglas, said Politi, they have worked closely over the years on town and county business, meeting at places like the Cascade Inn and the Interlaken Inn. “Mr. Preston is a dedicated member of this board of supervisors,” Politi said. “He wears his heart on his shirtsleeve, as we all know, and he has done such great things for town of Wilmington, for the people of the town of Wilmington — they’re extremely lucky to have had him as their leader.”

Supervisor Ed Gardner (R-Essex) seconded and the motion was unanimously approved.

Preston said he was pleased at the decision.

“This has been a nonpartisan board as far as the voting and how we’ve operated since Mr. Douglas took office,” he said. “It’s very important to me that that continues and we leave the party politics out of it.”

Essex County Republican Committee First Vice Chair Win Belanger said he was pleased that the board selected Ferebee to be their chairman.

Electing a Republican as chair, he said, will give the party a chance to show that they can govern the county as well as Douglas, a Democrat who has served for six terms, a rare feat.

But Preston was a surprise, he said, because Republicans have a majority on the board with 13 of the 18 seats.

“I’m sure Randy Preston is going to do a good job, but as vice first chair of the Republican county committee, we always try to get two

Republicans at the top of the slate,” said Belanger.

Belanger said Willsboro Supervisor Shaun Gillilland would have made a fine vice chairman.

“This has nothing to do with partisan politics,” he said. “It simply states that the majority of voters have elected the majority of the board and I thought they would follow that lead.”

He added that he has never seen any super play partisan politics.

“A credit to all them,” he said.

Ferebee and Preston’s elevation was all but certain as senior-level supers indicated they were uninterested in moving up following Douglas’ surprise announcement earlier this month.

Douglas will resign as Jay town supervisor on June 2 and will start his new job in Plattsburgh the following day.

This year marks an election year for local office-seekers, including most town positions and several county offices, including county judge and treasurer.

Designated party candidates will start circulating on June 2. The state has set a primary date of Tuesday, September 10.

ABOVE: Essex County lawmakers unanimously selected Bill Ferebee (RKeene) to lead the board of supervisors on Monday, May 26. Randy Preston (I-Wilmington) was selected as vice chairman.

Stefanik introduces first bill, Common Sense Waiver Act

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com WASHINGTON, D.C. — As she crisscrossed the district last week, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik knocked out a pair of firsts.

A telephone town hall saw thousands of constituents listening to the rep discuss issues like taxes, trade and agriculture — likely the first direct interaction with Stefanik for many — while the lawmaker also showed off her policy chops with her first bill, the Common Sense Waiver Act. The legislation, introduced on Thursday, would allow local officials to fast track the demolition of unsafe buildings by asking the Environmental Protection Agency to waive emissions standards or other requirements under the Clean Air Act. A requested waiver may be approved if the building is condemned or there is a reasonable expectation of the building’s structural failure.

In a news release, Stefanik cited a building in Malone that is running the risk of collapsing into a stream.

Officials have repeatedly complained about the red tape surrounding asbestos when taking down unsafe structures.

“Local governments know what is best for their communities and this legislation would ensure that local governments are able to take the appropriate action when the EPA will not,” said Stefanik.

According to the legislation, all waivers must be approved or disapproved within 90 days.

Any applications not responded to within 90 days will be deemed approved.

What to do with abandoned and dilapidated buildings is a frequent topic of discussion in towns across Essex County.

Willsboro Supervisor Shaun Gillilland said he supported the legislation.

The North Country is bereft with blighted buildings, he said, and local governments are struggling to renovate or clear these structures.

“It is a key impediment to successful economic development,” Gillilland said in an email. “Nearly every town looks like a microcosm of Detroit. This legislation should help actions to renovate our towns.”

Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said his town’s biggest problem is the empty properties that are stuck in limbo between when someone moves out and when the bank forecloses.

While total takedowns are rare, anything that can help localities is a good thing, he said.

Ticonderoga Supervisor Bill Grinnell said his town is facing similar problems.

“There are very significant issues,” he said.

This isn’t the first time the bill has been introduced: Former Congressman Bill Owens introduced this legislation last Congress, but it never moved anywhere after being referred to the Energy and Commerce Committee.

Stefanik’s bill, which was co-sponsored by Dan Newhouse, will likely be referred to Energy and Commerce again soon, said a Stefanik spokesman.

Going forward, he said, Stefanik will continue to work with her colleagues on both sides of the aisle to educate them on the issue and secure additional cosponsors.

Family & Memorial Day

A

s I sat on our back deck soaking up the ambiance of our beloved Saranac River on Memorial Day morning, I reflected on many things including what we once called Decoration Day. At Moira High School our band marched to every rural cemetery paying tribute to fallen service men and women.

I had played trombone, but was “chosen” to carry the huge tuba in the marching band.

The director told me I was the only member strong enough to haul that gigantic instrument around my neck. I was flattered. Actually, I enjoyed the oompah sound.

by Gordie Little To this day, Kaye and I enjoy hearing all the old march tunes we learned during our marching band days. It was hardly fair, though, because she played the flute. If you were to ask her today, she would insist that she has always carried the heavy load in this marriage.

I can’t disagree.

We had out-of-town guests last weekend.

Kaye’s sister “Dot” Trevor and son Mark drove up from Virginia and we asked what exciting things they wanted to do. The response: “We just want to sit on your enclosed deck and watch the river.” Fair enough. We have always found that this little piece of paradise tends to inspire introspection. Spending time out here causes us to recall and compare childhood memories growing up in the North Country.

It was fun listening to Kaye and Dorothy repaint scenes from Morrisonville, Altona, Saranac Lake, Lake Colby and elsewhere. Those charming conversations inevitably lead to recollections of grandparents and great grandparents. They sometimes had colorful discussions about who begat whom.

Some are more fortunate than I in that regard.

Since my mother was the youngest of seven children, I never got to know my own grandparents.

The subject got around to genealogy. Thanks to my friends in and outside the Northern New York American-Canadian Genealogical Society housed in Dannemora, I have learned a lot about my own family tree. I was given help tracing my mother’s maiden name of Requa and my Little surname. My own efforts had been pathetic in that regard. Accolades to those who offered expert assistance all along the way.

For example, Julie Dowd recently pointed me toward information indicating that one of my ancestors helped to invent a rather fantastic gun during the American Civil War. It featured multiple barrels which could all be fired at the same time. I watched a video demonstration and it figuratively blew me away.

Mark Trevor and other family members have been busy tracing their roots back into antiquity.

While they were here, we had great fun dragging out ancient marriage certificates and other documents as we plugged more family history into the family records. The Internet has brought to our computer screens almost instant access to data from around the world that we could only have dreamed about when we marched to those cemeteries. Those were the days when newspapers, radio and telephone party lines were our main sources of information.

Mark is an IT wizard. That stands for information technology for the uninitiated. His nimble fingers flew across the screen of his latest iPhone 6 plus, or whatever the heck it’s called. We watched in awe as he plugged in new information that will be shared, not only by his family, but by future generations to infinity.

I bless those who work diligently on genealogy for themselves and others and thank all the people who have enriched us through their study of the past to give us perspective in the future. I’ve always said our lives are like the connect-the-dots pages from our childhood coloring books. As we draw the line from the first number to the last, the picture begins to be revealed and helps give us meaning.

My Uncle Glode Requa served in World War One. He returned to tell me his stories while he worked in his Monsey, NY vegetable garden.

Kaye’s and Dot’s brother, Alfred Vaughan, Jr, died serving his country in Italy during the next war. He didn’t make it home. We must never forget his sacrifice and all the others.

Montcalm Mile registration now open TICONDEROGA — Registration for the Montcalm Mile is now open.

The 29th annual one mile road race, held July 4th just prior to Ticonderoga’s Best Fourth in the North parade, will again offer prize money —adding masters and veterans classes this year — in an effort to attract another top field of competitors.

With a men’s course record of 3 minutes, 54 seconds, the Montcalm Mile is believed to be the fastest mile anywhere in New York and Vermont, outside New York City.

“The Montcalm Mile has become the premier athletic contest in the North Country,” Fred Herbst, race director, said. “Having attracted record fields each of the past five years, we expect about 400 runners in 2015.

“Our goal is make the race one of the most competitive events in the North Country while remaining a fun, family-friendly race,” he said.

To accomplish that goal the Montcalm Mile will 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.

The Montcalm Mile course records are 3:54 set by Lee Berube in the men’s race and 4:43 set by Sara Dunham in the women’s race.

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 2015.

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. For

entry information contact Herbst at 13 Lindbergh Landing, Ticonderoga 12883 or by Email at fherbst@nycap.rr.com.

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 also be posted on the running group’s web site.

Sponsoring this year’s Montcalm Mile are DeFranco Landscaping, the Ticonderoga Teachers Association, Circle Court Motel, Trout House Village, Ticonderoga Elks, Ticonderoga Walmart and the Times of Ti. 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 $13,000 in college scholarships the past 10 years.

Kayak Raffle to benefit Best 4th in the North TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Best 4th In The North Committee announces that they will be raffling a ten foot Kayak to benefit the Best 4th In The North Celebration. Tickets are $1 each or six tickets for $5. The drawing will be held Saturday, July 4, at the Bicentennial Park. Tickets are available from committee members.

Seagle Chamber’s organization of year

SCHROON — The Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce has announced that its Board of Directors have selected Seagle Music Colony as the Schroon Lake Area’s Organization of the Year for 2015.

Seagle Music Colony, the oldest summer singer training program in the country, was founded in 1915, by world renowned baritone, Oscar Seagle.

The Colony is celebrating its 100th Anniversary this year. Oscar made several concert tours in the United States and Europe, and recorded albums for Columbia, including the popular World War I hit “Dear Old Pal of Mine.” He served from 1903-1914 as teaching associate in Europe with his teacher, the great Polish tenor Jean de Reszke. De Reszke was a star of the Metropolitan Opera as well as Queen Victoria’s favorite singer.

When Oscar returned home, he opened a studio in Hague, on Lake George, in 1915. He then moved to Schroon Lake and taught at the Brown Swan Club, which is now the Word of Life Inn. In 1922, Oscar bought the property where the Colony currently stands. The Colony was quickly nicknamed “Olowan,” an Indian name meaning “Hill of Song.” Mr. Seagle’s reputation made the Colony a magnet for aspiring singers. During the 1920s, up to 125 students would come each summer, and in the winter many would follow him to Nice, France for further study at the de Reszke-Seagle School.

“There is about the name of Oscar Seagle a glow of brilliant years and extraordinary musical associations. His relationship with the immortal de Reszke and his own position as a master of many singers have made him unique among American artists.”

(New York Morning Telegram) Oscar’s son John was among the most prominent of his pupils. Born in Paris, France on February 15, 1906, he grew up hearing fine singing from morning to night. When the Seagles left Europe during World War I, John entered the Choir School of St. John the Divine in New York City, where he was the treble soloist for three years.

John Seagle made recordings for Decca and RCAVictor, and sang with a number of weekly network radio programs, including Beatrice Lillie, Burns and Allen, Palmolive, Firestone, Cities Service, Wildroot, Maxwell House, Showboat and Sal Hepatica. He began singing with The Cavaliers Quartet in the 1920s and recorded over 500 hymns with them for an NBC program called The Church in the Wildwood, which was broadcast in many countries.

The Seagle Music Colony Singers were one of the

first groups to perform before television cameras.

John Seagle served on the staff of WRGB in Schenectady, where Colony singers were frequently called upon to perform. After Oscar Seagle’s death in 1945, John directed and taught voice at Seagle Music Colony from 1945 to 1985. The old barn that was Oscar Seagle’s studio in Schroon Lake was extended into a theatre in his memory. John also taught voice at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas, and continued to sing on radio, television and the concert stage. He was honored in June of 1996 by the Schroon Lake Chamber of Commerce as Schroon Lake’s Citizen of the Year. John died in 1997, and the John and Helen Seagle Scholarship was established in memory of John and his wife, who gave many years of devoted service to Seagle Music Colony.

From its beginning in 1915 and to this day, young singing actors travel from across the country to study with the wonderful faculty and staff who gather every summer “on the hill” in Schroon Lake. In addition to invaluable performance experience in opera and musical theatre, each young artist receives weekly music coachingand private voice lessons by the exceptional faculty. Artists also take part in career development classes, acting and dance lessons. Further, they sing in master classes for famous singers and artist managers, and learn the ins and outs of the world of opera and musical theatre.

“The Town of Schroon Lake has been blessed to have such an amazing asset in our region for 100 years. The Seagle Music Colony is loved by so many and it is the cornerstone cultural and arts attraction for our region each summer. Not only does this amazing summer program train gifted artist, but they share their talents with our local population and visitors through performances that are done throughout the summer. They have recently begun to do public school outreach programs in the area. The Chamber is excited to see what Seagle Music Colony will bring to our region in the next 100 years” stated Schroon Lake Chamber Executive Director, Tammy Whitty-Brown.

The Chamber will host a dinner to honor the Seagle Music Colonies selection as Citizen of the Year for 2015 on Tuesday, June 16 at 6 p.m. The event will take place at Word of Life Inn in Schroon Lake. Tickets to the dinner are available for $25 per person. For details, please contact the Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce at 532-7675 or email director@schroonlakechamber.org.

Service honored at Schroon Memorial Day ceremony

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — John Burke stood quietly at the Town of Schroon veterans memorial on Monday, remembering some of his fellow service members.

While Burke, a Vietnam War veteran, knows the service of all military members is important to the fabric of the nation, the names of the service members along a commemorative wall in Schroon is a reminder of what others gave. “The ultimate sacrifice is the one’s who are on the walls,” he said in an interview following the solemn ceremony.

Burke was among about 100 people who gathered at the town of Schroon’s veterans memorial for the annual Memorial Day program. Schroon area veterans, including local members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion, organized the event.

Generations of patriots and fallen heroes were honored during the ceremony.

Included in the program were remarks by American Legion commander Pete Johnson, VFW commander Ed Donley, and a benediction by VFW chaplain Dave Moffat. Veteran John Burke is pictured on Memorial Day 2015 in Moffat said he hoped the ceremony Schroon Lake.

Photo by Christopher Pratt helps community members to renew their appreciation of the precious freedoms enjoyed in the United States. The deaths of service members should continue to inform people in their daily lives, Moffat said.

“Let us never forget the sacrifice and terrible cost of war and we may always therefore strive for peace in this world,” Moffat said.

According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs website, 1.1 million Americans have died in the nation’s wars. A desire to remember their sacrifice also drew U.S. Marine Corps veteran Raymond Mosley Jr. to the ceremony.

Close to his heart each Memorial Day are memories of fellow service members who died in the 1983 Beirut barrack bombings. Mosley said many of the more than 200 service members who died in the attack held the same jobs as him.

“A flip of the coin, I could have been there,” Mosley said.

After a firing salute and playing of taps, many of the veterans gathered headed onto North Hudson for a similar ceremony.

Burke rode his motorcycle along with members of the local Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association. He said he’ll plan on participating in future remembrances far into the future. It’s important to never forget the sacrifices made, Burke said.

Passing down the fishing pole I

t was 25 years ago, when some fellas from Moriah got together and decided it was time do to something for the kids. The group wanted to pass on the heritage of fishing and to promote the fair play of outdoor sportsmanship.

Roe Pond in Moriah was set aside by local government Town council members as a youth fishing only pond and stocked with

By Rich Redman fish from our own Essex County Fish Hatchery in Crown Point.

That was the birth of the Roe Pond International Fishing Tournament for Kids.

This past Memorial Day weekend, was the silver anniversary of the R.P. International. This fishing contest involves youth under 15 years of age. Categories are broken up by age, 2 to 6, 7 to 9, 10-11, 12-13 and 14 to 15 year old age groups. Every age group wins 1st, 2nd and 3rd place awards for the heaviest fish.

First prize winners received $25 and 2nd and 3rd place winners were awarded a new fishing rod and reel. Awards were given to Owen Bobbie, Jane Emmerick, Mia Mascarenes, Madeline Gallo, Shane Daigle, John Summer, Brook Suprenant, Sidney Glebus, Ariana Simpson, Cole Glebus, Kyle Bacon, Faith Emmerick and John Martinez. Every child entered in this event, received a gift of some lures, bobbers and other fishing equipment, so all go home happy and every one of them is a winner.

There was even a Catch and Release Bullhead award!

All gifts were donated by local business, and community members, to keep this internationally acclaimed event going!

I have heard it said that community spirt is dead; well those folks should visit Moriah, because these towns’ citizens are very generous and community is important.

With the advent of the 25th anniversary, the committee members, Brian Venne, Chip Perry, Joe “coonrod” Rodriguez, Mike

Aitner and Tom Langey, have decided to “Pass down the fishing pole”, to the next generation of community leaders. Its retirement time and these guys are now going fishing! The bar that has been set high, by these great guys.

Jason Vargo will be heading up next year’s team, and plans on living up to the challenge. Jason is looking for some additional help to keep the world renowned Roe Pond International Fishing Tournament for Kids going for another 25 years!

A great big THANK YOU goes out to these guys for what they have done to promote conservation, sportsmanship and for making every one of our local youth important winners.

Our featured pet this week is Mag, a handsome black Labrador Retriever-mix with a glossy black coat and a terrific personality! Mag thinks he is really a puppy, even though he is a year old, weighs 90 pounds, and towers over many other full-grown dogs.

This happy-go-lucky fellow has the attitude

Kathy L. Wilcox • 873-5000

and energy of a 3-month-old pup, but shelter staff have been working hard with him to learn his manners and grow into the awesome companion he has the potential to be.

Mag Mag needs some strong leadership in his life; with some rules and boundaries, he will be a wonderful family dog in a home with lots of activity. He does well with other dogs, but has a little too much enthusiasm for cats and really shouldn’t live with one. Did I mention how handsome this sweet boy is with his chocolate coat and soulful amber eyes? If you need a hiking-jogging-swimming-all around athletic pal, come check out Mag!

It’s a boy!

In brief Fort introduces ‘French Perspective’ exhibit

TICONDEROGA — Fort Ticonderoga Museum’s newest exhibit introduces the campaign of 1756 from the French perspective. Using artifacts, archaeological material, and hands on reproductions, 1756: The Front Line of New France explores how the soldiers who fought for France’s empire were equipped with the goods created by that empire. The exhibit is included in a Fort Ticonderoga general admission ticket and is located in the South Barracks at Fort Ticonderoga.

To learn more about this exhibit and related programs visit fortticonderoga.org or call 585-2821.

Funding for the 1756: The Front Line of New France exhibit was made possible in part by the following supporters: International Paper Ticonderoga Mill, Glens Falls National Bank, Amtrak, and individual donors.

Fort to exhibit Construction of Fort Carillon

TICONDEROGA — Fort Ticonderoga Museum’s newest exhibit introduces the logistics behind the construction of Fort Carillon (now Fort Ticonderoga). Using hands-on components, Iron and Stone: Building Fort Carillon allows visitors to see if they have what it takes to be a mason at Fort Carillon and experience how French masons achieved the level courses of their stonework. The exhibit is included in a Fort Ticonderoga general admission ticket and is located in the South Barracks.

“Iron and Stone: Building Fort Carillon includes a full-scale reconstruction of the first walls of the fort over the winter of 1755-56, as well as the original tools used to build Fort Ticonderoga (found in the ruins of the fort in the 20th century),” said Matthew Keagle, Fort Ticonderoga’s Curator of Collections. “Unlike the masonry walls that awe visitors today, much of the actual fort was constructed of wooden timbers, resting on a masonry foundation. This exhibit will explore the construction of Fort Carillon between 1755 and 1759, and address why Fort Ticonderoga looks the way it does today.”

Blue Bombers shoot their way to the Section VII golf title Moriah’s Joe Stahl advances to state championships on Section VII team, finishes tied for third overall

By Andrew Johnstone

andrew@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — Even as scores for the front nine were still trickling in, little was in doubt. The Section VII golf title was the Blue Bombers’ to lose.

About two hours later, after a sunny, mid-60s day at Saranac Inn, it was official — the experience-laden golfers of Lake Placid were the champs.

From Nos. 1 through 6, the Blue Bombers’ spread of scores was a mere seven strokes, led by Kiefer Casler’s 79. ”It’s a tough course. The greens were playing very quick,” said a seemingly relaxed Casler shortly before Lake Placid was officially crowned the champion. “It feels pretty good.”

Casler’s score was second only to Saranac Lake’s Ethan Sawyer, who shot a 37 on the back nine on his way to a 76. The two schools have been neck-and-neck as of late.

A year ago, the Blue Bombers edged the Red Storm in a threestroke regular season tiebreaker before the tables turned the way of Saranac Lake in sectionals. Casler was especially happy for the his head coach, John Glinski, to get the sectional win in his 16th year at the helm.

The victory came by 14 strokes, with Lake Placid shooting a 326 as a team to Saranac Lake’s 340. AuSable Valley rounded out the podium with a 349. ”I think experience had a lot to do with it,” Glinski said of the players that have been to sectionals as a team three years in a row. “I think they handled the pressure well.”

The Blue Bombers, who started four seniors among their top six this season, had a wealth of experience on hand. Glinski explained that in a few matches his sixth man produced the team’s low round while his seventh, with a low 40s average, could have been the No. 1 on other teams in the region.

It showed on the scoresheet by day’s end. After Casler, Lucas Strack — golfing in the No. 4 spot — turned in a 81. Bjorn Kroes

Moriah’s Kyle Wilson made it to the second day of play at the Section VII golf championships at the Saranac Inn course. Wilson had a two-day total of 188, finishing 22 among sectional golfers.

had an 82 at No. 1 while Miles Lussi (84), Pate Kane (86) and Ryan Kane (86) all had rounds of 18 that fell under the best scores from seven other schools.

“They got us today, I think,” said Saranac Lake’s Sawyer between swings at the driving range as the final golfers made their way to the clubhouse and Lake Placid’s win was all but a formality. “They had a couple real good scores. They’re playing well.”

Though the team finals are in the books, the trip to states is still up in the air. The top 24 golfers will move on to play again tomorrow for a chance to go to states at Cornell. Only the top nine will make the trip.

Sawyer, who has made it to states the past two years, has a night to shift his focus from team to individual. A year ago, he led after the first day before relinquishing the overall lead the following. ”I got it by three going into tomorrow, so that should be fun,” Sawyer said with a laugh. “Last year, I kind of blew up, so I’m hoping I learned a little from that.”

The next day, Sawyer completed the task. He shot a 78 to push his two-day total to 154, good for a nine-stroke win over Kroes (163). The Saranac Lake senior, on his way to states for the third time, was the only golfer to shoot under 80 on the second day.

Kasler, Strack and Moriah’s Joe Stahl all tied for third with 164s as Lake Placid qualified five for states. Lussi won the tiebreaker against Ryan Kane to seal his trip with Kane listed as a state alternate.

Jordan Guay (Plattsburgh) and Nate Devins (AuSable Valley) rounded out the list of qualifiers. Just missing the mark were three golfers all tied with 175s. They were Peru’s Gavin Plimpton, Saranac Lake’s Carley Sawyer and Elizabethtown-Lewis’ Boyce Rawson.

Carley Sawyer, a junior and the lone female competitor amongst the 15 schools’ top six, said she enjoyed a season playing against the boys of Section VII. ”It’s awesome. I love it,” Sawyer said. “I definitely see surprised looks. I like playing with the guys. They’re super nice.”

She credits her older brother with getting her into golf, a sport she started because she “pretty much wanted to do whatever he (Ethan) did.”

Though she missed out on the trip to Cornell, she’ll have a strong shot next year as a senior-heavy top of the pack will be moving on to different greens.

But for now, Glinski and his 2015 Blue Bombers squad have the chance to bask in dominant performance in both team and individual play. ”It’s just the depth,” Glinski said. “Any given day one of them

NAC ends Ticonderoga 10-year reign at top of Class C

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — In a case of role reversal, the Northern Adirondack Bobcats walked off with a win against the Ticonderoga Sentinels May 26, ending Ti’s 10-year run as the top team in Section VII/Class C. A Kody Smith hit that grazed off the glove of first baseman Ryan Trudeau allowed the winning run to cross the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning, after Stephen Peryea was intentionally walked to load the bases for a force play at every base.

“It was the right move because they had runners at second and third with two outs and it also happened their best hitter was coming to the plate,” Ticonderoga head coach Dan Dorsett said.

“I was confident we were going to get out of the inning and go into extras, and we had our pitching lined up for extra innings.”

Instead, the Sentinels lone error in the game led to the titleclinching run.

“I was a little surprised when they walked me,” Peryea, who had tied the game in the fifth inning with a two-run single, said.

“Kody told me he wanted this and he was going to deliver for us.”

“I was surprised and I wanted redemption because they walked (Stephen) to get to me and I wanted to make them pay,” Smith said. “I got an outside fastball and stayed back on the ball and went to the opposite field. I was running hard the whole way because I knew it would be a bang-bang play.”

After the ball hit off Trudeau’s glove, Dalton Granger, who made a spectacular catch in the fourth inning, was able to get to the ball and make a throw to pitcher Caleb Munson covering the bag, which was low and after the runner had touched first base.

“I’m happy for our boys,” NAC coach Jeph Doorey said.

“Anytime you can beat a quality opponent like Ticonderoga it is a great win. There’s a reason they have been in that top seat for the past 10 years, they have great coaching and great players.”

The Sentinels took advantage of Bobcat errors in the top of the first inning to get their two runs in the game. After Domanic Banish led off the game with a walk, Bobcat pitcher Ethan King was able to catch Banish leaning off the bag in an attempted pick-off play. However, the throw from the first baseman went into the outfield, and Banish was safe at second. One batter later, Ryan Trudeau hit a one-hopper off the right center field fence for a triple, scoring Banish. Trudeau would later score on a fielding

error off the bat of Gavin Wells.

“They got those two unearned runs and I thought it was going to be a repeat of last year,” NAC winning pitcher Ethan King said. “We were able to play good defense from that point on and I was able to locate my pitches.”

“He got ahead of batters after the first inning and found a good curve and a good mixture of pitches,” Doorey said.

Trudeau was able to hold the Bobcat bats in check until the fifth inning, when he gave up a lead-off single and walked a pair of batters with two outs before surrendering the hit to Peryea in what was his final inning of work.

“Every team gets that chance where they are going to have theirs,” Dorsett said. “Trudeau pitched well for us but he was having some trouble in the heat of the day (temperatures were near 90-degrees on the field).”

Banish pitched a scoreless sixth inning and was able to record the first out of the seventh between Bobcat base hits. Munson was able to get the second out of the inning on a grounder to Trudeau before the final play of the game.

“I hate to lose for these seniors,” Dorsett said. “They have worked hard for the past four years and it does not go unappreciated.”

Moriah makes D baseball finals on pair of 2-1 wins, one v. Crown Pt. Baseball Moriah 2, Crown Point 1

CROWN POINT — The Vikings scored a pair of runs in the top of the sixth inning May 26, and Chris Clarke held the Panthers bats in check to advance to the Class D championship game.

Todd Gregory scored on a Clarke sacrifice fly to open the scoring in the game, while Colin Harris scored on a wild pitch to give the Vikings their needed insurance marker.

Brendan Crowningshield scored the lone run for the Panthers after reaching and stealing second before coming home on a Robbie Macey sacrifice fly.

Both pitching staffs were solid, with Panther hurlers Kolby Pertak and Robbie Macey combining to allow only three hits while striking out 13 batters. Clarke allowed only two hits for the Vikings, also striking out 13 in seven innings of work.

The Vikings will face Lake Placid Friday.

Moriah 2, Chazy 1

CHAZY — Jay Strieble drove in Taylor Slattery with the game winning run in the eighth inning to advance the Vikings to the Section VII/Class D semifinals against the Eagles May 22.

Slattery started the eighth inning with a single before stealing second and advancing to third on a single by Cody Stockwell before the Strieble sacrifice.

The Vikings tied the game in the bottom of the sixth inning on a Sam Russo RBI double scoring Chris Clarke, who struck out 12 in eight innings of work for the win.

Ed Bocker went the distance in the loss, surrendering nine hits over seven-plus innings.

Crown Point 9, Keene 1

CROWN POINT — The Panthers scored four runs in the bottom of the fourth inning to pull away from the Beavers May 22, advancing to the Section VII/Class D semifinals.

Sam Millington pitched the opening four inning for the Panthers to earn the win, while Robbie Macey came on to record the final nine outs and earn the save.

Kolby Pertak had a single and double in the win,

while Jessie Burroughs hit a double and Chance Potter a triple.

Northern Adirondack 13, Moriah 3

ELLENBURG — The Bobcats, awaiting the Class C semifinal winner between AuSable Valley and Ticonderoga, were sharp in a 13-3 tune-up win against the Vikings May 20.

Northern Adirondack piled on 16 hits, sending multiple runners home in four of the six innings at bat.

Ethan King struck out 10 batters while allowing Moriah just two hits. Stephen Peryea had three hits, including a home run, while Kody Smith and Bailey Cross each connected on three in the victory. One of Smith’s was a triple while Josh Juntunen added a double.

Softball Plattsburgh 12, Crown Point 4

PLATTSBURGH — The Lady Hornets turned a 2-2 tie into a rout, scoring ten runs in the bottom of the fifth to run away from the Lady Panthers 12-4 on May 21.

Lauren Stanley picked up the pitching win and added three hits, including a double, in an all-around strong performance for Plattsburgh.

Shea Frady added two hits, including a double, in the victory while Sarah Duquette connected on a pair of her own.

Crown Point’s Brittany Foote had three hits in the setback, one of them a double.

Chazy 13, Schroon Lake 3

CHAZY — The Lady Eagles moved on to the Section VII Class D semifinals with a 13-3 win over the Panthers on May 25.

Paige Barcomb led the charge defensively, striking out eight batters in seven innings of work in the circle.

She also had a triple as Chazy led in hits by a margin of 12-4.

Gwen LaPier and Bailey Pepper both rapped triples as well, with LaPier adding a double in a solid game at the plate.
