TICONDEROGA — On April 16, an earthquake hit the small South American nation of Ecuador, causing damage and devastation throughout.

For high school sweethearts and Ti graduates Alan and Cathy Corliss, the quake brought a fight for their lives.

Now with, Cathy undergoing physical therapy and the family getting ready to move back toward their new home town of Canoa, friends and family came together to help support the Corliss family and their business, The Surf Shak, through a golf tournament at the Ticonderoga Country Club.

The tournament, held July 9, was organized with help from Ticonderoga Superintendent Dr. John McDonald, who was a classmate of Cathy’s.

“They came to us and asked if they could

do this, and we wanted to be here to support the event and thank everyone for coming,” said Alan’s sister, Kimberly Smith.

Alan’s sister, PJ Eames, said the quake did severe damage, destroying their home.

“They lost everything they owned and they were both hurt,” Eames said. “They have been able to get really good care. Both had surgery, and Cathy is going through PT now while living in an apartment in Guayaquil.”

“She’s doing well,” Cathy’s brother John Cooper said. “She is now able to get up and take some small steps. There is still some swelling in the brain area, but she is making steps to recovery.”

While the family is recovering, their daughter, Kyrstin, who was not hurt in the quake, along with her sister, Britni, have been working to keep their business going in Canoa.

“She has done great,” Eames said. “The shack was still there, so they want to keep it open for the community.”

Cooper said when the quake happened, the family was unable to contact Cathy or Alan, relying on anything from friends of the family in Ecuador, the United States Embassy and

Mineville IDA building named in honor of Charlie Bryant

keith@suncommunitynews.com

MINEVILLE — “What’s going on here?” asked Charlie Bryant as he noticed a number of people — including his wife — and balloons at the new home of High Peaks Hospice in the Mineville IDA Park.

What was going on was a celebration of the 30-year career of Bryant as a member of the Essex County Industrial Development Agency’s board.

As a show of appreciation for his service years, Bryant was presented with a pair of plaques, one from the Essex County Board of Supervisors thanking him for his service and the other a sign which will be hung in the building where the celebration happening, naming the building in his honor as the Charlie Bryant Building 4.

Mother Nature smiles on Ti school, field projects

Contractors work on the roof on the elementary and middle school buildings.

Work continues on the high school track and football field across from the elementary/middle school.

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — The superintendent had a nervous smile on his face when asked about the current building projects, including the complete re-creation of the school’s football and track facility.

He quickly reached for the edge of his desk, and knocked.

“I don’t want to jinx anything,” McDonald said. “I think it is going very, very well to this point and the weather has been very cooperative.”

Along with the athletic complex remodel, the school is also in the process of putting a new roof onto the elementary and middle school building.

“They started the work on the roofs and they have been able to go great guns on those projects,” he said.

McDonald said the new irrigation system for the football field and track has been put into place, with work beginning on leveling the area.

“They are bringing in the sand and fill to level things out and then they will be able to bring in the sod. The weather is always going to be the key. Once they get to a certain point, rain won’t be as big of a concern and once the sod is in, we will want the rain.”

McDonald said the track portion of the project is also on schedule to be completed sometime in the fall.

“That part will be done in the fall and be ready for the spring season,” he said.

When asked if Sept. 2 would find the Sentinels opening their team playing under the lights at their renovated field, McDonald was again carefully hesitant.

“We won’t commit to that yet, there’s still a lot that needs to happen,” he said, adding he was happy with where the project stands now.

The fields and roofs are part of the capital project approved by voters in May 2015.

The project will also include work on renovating the planetarium at the high school into a STEM classroom and renovating the historic auditorium, along with other projects.

Perrault, who served as Elementary/Middle School Principal in his tenure, was assisted by district-wide Assistant Principal Herb Tedford. Under the new administration alignment, Tedford will become the Middle School principal as no change to his current salary scale.

“The buildings are so different, we felt the middle school really needed to have their own principal,” McDonald said.

“They needed a point person. We had this structure before but budget concerns led to the elimination of one position. When we were able to hire Herb we did so as an assistant but felt it was better for both buildings to have their own principal.”

Tedford will continue to also function in some districtwide activities, including assessments and other administrative duties.

TICONDEROGA — An experienced curriculum and grant-writing administrator has joined the Sentinel team.

Elizabeth Hayes, who previously served as the Elementary Principal/Director of Curriculum Instruction and Assessment at Hadley-Luzerne Central, has been named as the new Elementary Principal at Ticonderoga Central.

Hayes replaces John Perrault, who resigned recently to take a job in the Schenectady area.

“At this point I am learning what the school is about and diving into the culture,” Hayes said.

Hayes will be charged with helping to improve the school’s curriculum programs.

“We have been identified as a school in need of a local plan, so I will be doing a lot of work in those areas,” she said. “I am very interested in helping these students to achieve and get them where they need to be.”

Hayes said her previous job helped her to learn the ins-andouts of Common Core curriculum.

“The Common Core can be challenging for many schools,” she said. “I was fortunate because when I came in, it was relatively new so I was able to work with a lot of people as things were being implemented.”

To help reach the goals of the elementary school, Hayes said she would be reaching out to the parents and guardians of the youth.

“We are very pleased to get Elizabeth,” McDonald said.

The Perrault move also created an opening in the Westport Central School District, where John’s wife, Erica, was a 7-12 Social Studies teacher.

Mrs. Perrault started as a long term substitute at Westport before being appointed to the position full time in the wake of the John “Jack” Thompson illegal surveillance investigation and subsequent conviction.

L

ast week was a rough one for many of our citizens. On going issues between Black Lives Matter and law enforcement were underscored by two incidents; one in Louisiana and the other in Minnesota where two black men were shot by police officers.

Those shootings initially brought about large, but mostly peaceful protests in several major cities across the country. Sadly the protest in Dallas, Texas resulted in a sniper shooting, killing five officers and wounding seven more. The shooter was also killed.

Mrs. Clinton and the Republicans had their ups and downs last week as FBI Director James Comey gave a brutal outline of Clinton’s careless handling of classified secrets and completely discredited her innocence.

Just when it looked like an indictment was imminent, Comey told the nation no charges would be sought, which seemingly confirmed for many that the “fix” was in.

But just when you think we can put the Clinton email issues behind us, we learned the State Department reopened their investigation into the handling of classified information, which could bring security clearance sanctions for Clinton and her national security team should she be elected.

While the nation struggles with many issues, trust growing among them, politicians continue to throw grenades at each other and repeatedly fail to address the people’s problems. Neither side is willing to give an inch on anything meaningful.

So here is a novel idea that perhaps will give them a clue on how to begin solving problems and begin the process of rebuilding a government capable of doing more than creating resentment and stonewalling progress.

It’s called compromise. It’s based on the premise of I’ll give you something, if you give me something.

With every gun shooting, Democrats call for greater gun control, clearly one of their top priorities. Republicans wanted some movement last week on Kate’s Law and Sanctuary Cities. Kate’s Law was named for a San Francisco woman, Kate Steinle, killed by an illegal immigrant who had been deported five times, only to return to a Sanctuary City where local enforcement agencies are not required to work with federal immigration.

Unless we rediscover shared cooperation and build solutions that shift the paradigm we currently find ourselves in, we are headed for more deadly days like we’ve seen in Dallas, Orlando, San Bernardino, Baltimore, and others.

Rainbow Family National Gathering an inexcusable drain on taxpayer resources

W

e generally try to stay out of the affairs of our neighbor to the east.

After all, our relationship with Vermont is congenial: We enjoy going over there for craft beer and life-saving medical treatment; they come over here for the scenic vistas and cheap real estate.

Sometimes we quietly chuckle at their quixotic, idealism-drenched culture and compare it to our flinty outlook grounded deep in practical, North Country values.

But we couldn’t help but watch with amusement earlier this month as a group calling themselves the Rainbow Family descended on a small town in Rutland County for their annual gathering.

The group is a loose affiliation of thousands of people who hold a festival every summer in a national forest, floating from place to place, presumably on the heady fumes of their own idealism.

This year, they selected the Green Mountain National Forest as their destination, their first touchdown in the state since 1991.

And for three weeks, an estimated 10,000 participants created their own utopia in the Green Mountain State, seeking to recapture universal ideals like friendship, peace on earth and generic rebukes of commercialism and corporate culture.

Many eschew conventional trappings like proper footwear, given names and gainful employment.

Translation: They’re unemployed hippies.

They came, they sang… they washed their hair with vegetable sprayers at local supermarkets.

Yes, you heard that right.

And then they passed the cost off to taxpayers.

The U.S. Forest Service, the agency that oversees national parks, issued daily news releases detailing of “increases in negative issues” associated with the gathering, mostly confrontations over trying to get free stuff, be it shoplifting or arguing with service providers, and defiling public space.

We’ve got a few problems with this.

The first is the Rainbow Family’s defenders are quick to say that these folks aren’t doing anything wrong, and crime is relatively low considering their numbers — just 200 warnings and 174 violations were given throughout the three-week event, according to WCAX. Even Gov. Peter Shumlin seemed to take a mellow approach, asking law enforcement to “stop hassling” the crowd after the family complained of “heavy policing.”

“Obviously, if there’s real law-enforcement challenges, we should enforce, but let’s live and let live,” Shumlin told that same news agency.

But, like the folks who bend themselves into similar ideological contortions, that’s like congratulating yourself for never going to jail.

Imagine such a spectacle in, say, Westport or West Chazy? Now imagine your friends and family who are small business owners or law enforcement officials trying to deal with this madness.

You probably wouldn’t be so quick to “live and let live.”

The second is the tremendous waste of taxpayer dollars.

Yes, the Green Mountain National Forest is a national landmark open to all Americans, including those seeking to carve out existence on a more primitive plane.

But this idle foolishness has real-life economic consequences.

The U.S. Forest Service allocates nearly $500,000 each year specifically for law enforcement at these gatherings.

Our count revealed at least a half-dozen additional law enforcement agencies who had to provide supplemental security, be it patrolling traffic, issuing citations for minor violations for other quality-of-life issues, or otherwise keeping the peace.

Those additional costs are unknown because those funds were peeled from a state highway safety grant program, according to interviews with law enforcement agencies who worked the beat.

What an obnoxious use of taxpayer money.

There’s the additional non-criminal costs of this gathering, including remedying the environmental issues, which will require careful study by highlyskilled professionals to assess the damages.

And then there’s the medical costs. According to Vermont Public Radio, Rutland Regional Medical Center’s Emergency Department reported at least 35 members treated in their ER — and that was one full week before the bacchanal reached its Patchouli-scented conclusion on July 4.

That same news source reported a Montana hospital was stuck with $200,000 in unpaid medical bills following a gathering in 2013.

We’re going to have to side with reason on this one.

“We would have loved to have seen the governor come down and see the area for himself for what we and his agencies were trying to deal with on the ground,” said John Sinclair, the supervisor of the Green Mountain National Forest.

Amen to that.

While we often come down hard on the onerous restrictions here in the Adirondack Park, those same guidelines governing gatherings on public land would have prevented such a similar gathering across Lake Champlain inside the Blue Line.

Because unlike far-flung ideals like “light and love,” at the end of the day, it’s us regular taxpayers who have to pick up the tab.

GUEST VIEWPOINT

County is wrong to give up on fairgrounds Keith Lobdell> Staff writer for Sun Community News

Keith@suncommunitynews.com

T

he Essex County Fair is less than one month away, which, for me, brings both anticipation and reflection.

I think most everyone who has seen the recent North Country Living or knows me realizes how surreal this year’s fair will be for me. But, as always, I look forward to the events, the attractions and the chance to watch my kids have fun in a true Essex County atmosphere.

However, recently, The Sun has been reporting on some stuff going on with the fairgrounds that concerns me and I know would concern those Lobdell’s who have come before me and had such an impact on what this fair was and is.

I’m not talking about helmets for horse riders. I absolutely think all riders should be wearing a helmet. As a coach, I know head trauma is a serious issue and all actions to lessen the threat of it should be taken. Heck, even bull riders, the toughest of the tough, wear helmets now.

My concern comes from what is going on with certain buildings on the fairgrounds.

Let’s start with the obvious one, the one that is not there anymore — Midway Diner.

The Midway Diner was a staple to the Essex County Fair. My family played a rather large role there for many years, including when it needed to be rebuilt at times.

Now, it’s gone. But why now?

Why demolish it in late June when there is no chance to have a new building in place for August?

Why was there no prior communication with the owners, but instead a surprise call?

Does the fairgrounds task force, headed by Willsboro Supervisor Shaun

Gilliland (by the way, the Westport Supervisor, Michael “Ike” Tyler — the supervisor with the most skin in the game — was noticeably not appointed to this committee) not realize the history of this building? That the person who spent more blood, sweat and tears on Midway Diner is the same man who they named their Public Safety Building after in the late Sheriff Henry Hommes?

I’m not saying the building should not have come down, it needed to if you saw it. But, why was it done at a time when no solution for replacement could be reached? This decision has been in the works for a while now, why not work things out sooner rather than later, when there is no time. Now, fairgoers are without one of three key food stands.

Speaking of that, according to last week’s article, the task force is not done trying to get rid of buildings and tenants they say should not be there, with sights set on three places. These moves would leave the fairgrounds with no food and no place to go when you pass out from heat stroke from not eating or drinking.

I know when these buildings were built. I know people who helped build these buildings. Not one of them was built with malicious or greedy intent.

They were all built to enhance the fair experience.

Shaun Gilliland is right when he says these buildings are county property, that’s why they were built on the fairgrounds.

But why not work out a deal for the people who built them to use them lease-free since they put a tremendous amount of work and dollars into them.

If they didn’t build them, then charge a lease just like you do for vendor space in Floral Hall and throughout the fairgrounds.

The Essex County Fair is a place for everyone. Most people can afford a trip to the fair, unlike other, more expensive events that happen in the county.

This fair is a staple event for the town of Westport and the county as a whole which needs to be looked at as something to enhance, not to damage.

I believe Gilliland when he says the goal is to again make the fairgrounds a place where county residents will want to come together not just for the fair, but for a variety of events. I think putting in a part time manager to help bring events to the grounds throughout the year would help.

But, I also know there is a contingent who are looking to sell the grounds, and that would not be in the best interests of the county. They already have a prime piece of land in North Hudson they can get a pretty penny for, so start there.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

TrumpÊ aÊ Ô creativeÊ entrepreneurÕ To the Editor: I cannot in good conscience sit back and allow Mr. G. P. Guido to harshly criticize Mr. J. Sharkey for his beliefs and support for the presumptive Republican nominee for President of the USA. Let me also say I thank Mr. Guido for his service to our country and defend his right to present his thoughts weather I agree or not.

I would like to point out that one doesn’t have to serve in the military to provide service to our country.

In support of Mr. Trump, please recognize that he has proven to be a creative entrepreneur creating thousands of good paying jobs over his lifetime.

Did all go well? Anyone who has had the initiative to lead knows the answer!

Was Mr. Trump an asset the USA? I would opine absolutely he and people like him made America what it was.

On the other hand, Mrs. Clinton and her husband have lived off the backs of the American taxpayers their entire lives. Both were lawyers that have been disbarred; Mrs. Clinton has recently been exposed to be a liar, outright, no questions necessary! Mr. Clinton would have been incarcerated for his actions against women if he had any other last name.

Their fortune in the hundreds of millions was collected under circumstances that are under investigation. I could write a book on the illegal actions of the Clintons, but put that on the side for now!

Mr. D. Trump has been bombarded with negative advertising over the last year. Yes, over $400,000,000 has been spent on attacking him, along with lies day after day supported by national news agencies.

So did he respond with an aggressive and hostile attitude?

Yes he did. Let me tell you right now, Mr. Guido, if I were in a fox hole behind enemy lines, I would want Trump at my back - not Clinton!

Trade, Trump understands it better than all of them and will make appropriate adjustment to the benefit of the American people.

Illegal immigrants, stop and think (illegal) need I say more? Let me close with something I believe we all support: GOD BLESS AMERICA! Bert Windle Putnam Station

DissolutionÊ isÊ badÊ forÊ theÊ village,Ê town To the Editor: Soon, Port Henry residents will vote on a dissolution plan. The state encourages dissolution by making it ever easier to initiate the process and funding it with paid consultants and tax credits.

Why? People should do their homework because neither the state nor their consultants are giving you the whole picture.

Moriah has two applications for state infrastructure grants: One for the town and one for the village.

In recent years, the village has been receiving over $600,000 dollars annually in various grants. If the village dissolves, not only does the village lose these grants but the town residents will now need to share their single grant with the village.

Improvements in water and sewer projects will be delayed years, with residents taking on debt and raising taxes in emergency situations.

The loss in grant funding is more than double the expected tax savings.

Only 10 villages out of 550 in the state have taken the state’s offer.

Why?

This is a great deal for the state and a terrible deal for the village and town residents. The town government has been enthusiastic supporters of dissolution, which will raise taxes 23 percent on 75 percent of the town’s voters and lose up to $600,000 in annual grant funding.

Why? There is no discernible reason to do this. An honest, smart town government that actually cared about all its constituents would work to keep the village, because it makes economic sense for everyone.

It appears that the town government, like Albany and Washington, has lost its way. Town residents should let the town government know this is unacceptable.

Village residents should vote no to the plan that will cost them more than they are getting in return.

Tim Bryant Port Henry

NotÊ muchÊ of Ê aÊ choice To the Editor: I read with amusement the letter from Mr. Sharkey in your July 2 edition, in which he heaped praise on Mr. Trump and vilified Mrs. Clinton. It reminded me of that old saying about the pot calling the kettle black.

As for Trump being a great president, that might be true if we were a banana republic.

It is unfortunate that this year, we have two of the worst candidates in living memory.

In a recent national poll, Clinton received a negative voting of -56 percent and Trump came in with a -70 percent.

Bernie was the only one with a positive voting but was later swallowed up by the Clinton Machine.

A third party candidate has emerged, but if past history is any indication, it will have little effect on the outcome.

My hope is that the good lord will give us the wisdom to make the right choice in November. We will need all the help we can get.

COMMENTARY

Importing Drugs Buying imported drugs is a rotten deal for patients Robert Blancato Columnist

P

residential front-runner Donald Trump just unveiled a proposal that would authorize Americans to buy prescription drugs imported from countries like Canada. The measure sounds appealing -- who wouldn’t want cheaper medicines from safe pharmacies in our northern neighbor?

Unfortunately, there’s a reason this proposal sounds too good to be true: it is.

While seemingly sensible, drug importation is a terrible idea that will put Americans at risk of harm from impure, unsafe, and counterfeit copies of prescription drugs. If he actually follows through on the proposal, Trump will be showcasing the art of the bad deal . . . for American patients.

He talks about how he wants to “remove barriers to entry into free markets,” including “allowing consumers access to imported, safe and dependable drugs from overseas.”

What he doesn’t say is that the United States has a safety regimen that is second to none and that depends on its being essentially a closed system. Breaking open this closed system invites abuse and increases risks because there would be no good way for consumers “to know whether drugs sold outside the U.S. meet FDA standards,” according to one agency document.

Backers of allowing drug imports say that those sold in Canada and other industrial countries are often the same product, but because of price controls imposed in those countries, they can be bought for far less than in the United States.

But as the FDA put it, supposedly ‘Canadian’ drugs “may be coming from some other country and simply passing through Canada.” In fact, one FDA operation found that 87 percent of drugs promoted as being of Canadian origin actually came from 27 different countries around the world. Many of those countries have abysmal quality controls.

And Canadian officials don’t inspect drugs that are shipped into Canada and then sold internationally.

Drug importation will particularly harm poor seniors -- precisely because their tight, fixed-income budgets will pressure them to turn to cheaper but potentially dangerous foreign imports.

Blocking drugs imported from other countries isn’t about free markets or competition. Most drugs sold in the U.S. already compete against generic versions, or other drugs designed to treat the same illness. And for all the hoopla about a few high-priced breakthrough drugs, pharmaceuticals account for less than 10 percent of national health spending.

Whatever limited, short-term savings might be gained from importing cheaper drugs would be vastly outweighed by the harm from breaking down the world’s best system for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of prescriptions drugs sold in America.

Robert Blancato is the executive director of the National Association of Nutrition and Aging Services Programs.

Very Merry Theatre presents ‘Peter Pan’ at the Hancock House TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Historical Society presents The Very Merry Theatre Tuesday, July 26, on the lawn of the Hancock House, at 2 p.m. This live-action musical theatre production of “Peter Pan” will be performed by a troupe of approximately 25-30 teens in a cleverly crafted outdoor stage. Everyone is urged to bring a lawn chair or a blanket. Rain site is the Knights of Columbus Pavilion. This event is free and open to the public.

“The Very Merry Theatre is a Vermont traveling theater company for children and teenagers with a mission to advance children’s literacy through the performance of classic books”, said Executive Director Don Wright. “Peter Pan” has been chosen for this season’s Teen Tour’s performances, with this performance in Ticonderoga our only New York venue. The beautiful lawn of the Hancock House, the hospitality of our hosts and

the engaging audience make this one of our favorite venues and we’re excited to return for the fourth consecutive year.”

Peter Pan, a live-action fairy-tale masterpiece, is a landmark of motion picture fantasy about a mischievous young boy who can fly and never grows up. Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood having adventures on the island of Neverland as the leader of the Lost Boys, interacting with fairies, pirates, mermaids, Native Americans and sometimes ordinary children.

“If you haven’t attended a Very Merry Theatre production in the past, we encourage you to stop by this year”, said June Curtis, event coordinator. “A unique 19th century style theatre wagon full of fledgling actors, participating in a fantastic two-week summer program, will roll into town and turn the

Hancock House lawn into a live theatre venue. After one week of rehearsals, the teens go on a jam-packed tour presenting as many as nine amazing performances throughout Vermont and this one in Ticonderoga. Most of the teens appear in at least two roles and have back stage responsibilities as well, providing a well-rounded theatre experience. Children of all ages are welcome.”

“The Very Merry Theatre made their debut appearance in Ticonderoga three years ago with “Anything Goes”. From three levels of artful staging, the Travel Troupe sang and danced their hearts out to a large appreciative crowd on a beautiful summer afternoon”, said Bill Dolback, President of the Ticonderoga Historical Society. “We look forward every July to the return of the Very Merry Theatre.

Dedicated to their mission to build strong,

inspired youth and communities through theatre arts, they never disappoint. Their enthusiastic performances are always entertaining, inspirational and joyous. The beautiful lawns of the Hancock House never look better than when our Community comes together for the VMT.” The Very Merry Theatre is one of several events promoted by the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce during A Summer of Fun”, said Curtis. This performance is sponsored by the Ticonderoga Historical Society with funding from the Town of Ticonderoga as part of the Cultural Arts Initiative and Stewarts Shops.

For additional information or for rain site determination, contact the Hancock House at 585-7868 or tihistory@bridgepoint1.com.

Ticonderoga Ferry captain at helm for 50 years Jon Porter still pilots ferry

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — It’s been 50 years since Jon Porter climbed aboard and took the helm as captain of the Ticonderoga Ferry on Lake Champlain.

He’s still there, and he does it because he loves it, the 77-year-old Porter said in a recent interview.

“I never thought I’d be here for 50 years, but I enjoy it,” Porter said.

Fifty years ago, he started working evenings at the cable ferry that connects Ticonderoga with Shoreham, Vt. “I’d come in at 4 and work until 11 at night,” he said. “I had another job during the day.”

Today, the 18-car ferry runs from 7 a.m. to 6 or 7 p.m., but it once operated much later into the evening. Trips are now $10 for cars, or $16 for a round trip.

Porter has worked for five different ferry owners since 1966, with Alison and Michael Matot now operating the service.

“Jon is a big asset to the ferry,” Alison Matot said. “His service to the ferry for 50 years is wonderful.”

Porter, who lives on Delano Road in Ticonderoga, said he’ll turn 78 on July 30, but plans to continue piloting the ferry next season.

“I have one year left on my (U.S. Coast Guard pilot’s) license,” he said. “I haven’t made up my mind after that.”

To celebrate his 50th anniversary at the ferry, Adirondack Camp, a children’s summer

camp in Putnam, recently brought 50 campers and adults with a cake down to the ferry landing.

“Everybody knew about it but me,” Porter said. “We were getting ready to close for the day. Suddenly there were loads of people here.

“I was surprised.”

The recognition made him feel good, said Porter, who likes to talk with ferry passengers after trips.

“We just had people here who wanted the ferry T-shirts we sell, and I chatted with them,” he said. “One wanted purple, one wanted pink. They love the ferry.”

That pretty much echoes how many people in the community feel, ferry deckhand Reg Matot, Michael’s father, said.

“Jon’s good to work with,” said Matot, who’s been a deckhand for six years. “Our frequent customers come on and tell us ferry stories.

They have fun riding the ferry.”

A local farmer uses the ferry to bring calves back from Vermont, he said.

“He’ll let kids pet the calves,” said Matot.

“He’ll open his truck.”

The ferry has been busy this year, Porter said, but not as busy as in 2009, when the Champlain Bridge at Crown Point was closed in October because of structural issues, and a temporary ferry there hadn’t started yet.

The state paid the Ticonderoga Ferry to stay open to handle some of the thousands of vehicles that cross the bridge between Crown Point and Chimney Point, Vt. every day.

The Ticonderoga Ferry is about 15 miles south of the bridge.

“I was the only one that had a (pilot’s) license that year,” Porter said. “I could only work 12 hours at a time, but Michael (Matot) could work under my supervision if I was here. That’s how we ran.”

Others on the ferry have their pilot’s licenses now, Porter said, so he’s not the only captain.

He said they ran the ferry to late January 2010, with icy waves splashing the decks, until the state’s contractor, Lake Champlain Transportation Co., could get a temporary ferry operating at Crown Point.

“We finally pulled everything out (of the water) in one day when the other ferry started,” Porter said. “It was so cold my fingers were numb at the end of the day, even with gloves on.”

A new Champlain Bridge opened on Nov. 7, 2011.

One bright spot is that a family of barn swallows has been living on the ferry every summer for years, Porter said.

“They come back every year,” he said.

“They make their nest and have their babies on the ferry. This is their home.”

Grant funds Summer in the Park concerts in Ti TICONDEROGA— The Ticonderoga Festival Guild has received Essex County Arts Council’s Cultural Assistance Program Grant. This grant enables the Festival Guild to hold a series of free “Summer in the Park” concerts in July and August.

This year the concerts will be held on the front steps of the Community Building. The venue was chosen to provide easy access for the audience along with a convenient venue in case of rain. If it rains the concert will move inside the Community Building to the second floor.

Three performances have been scheduled starting Tuesday, July 12, with Pat Donohue, at 7:30 p.m. Pat is a Grammy Nominated Fingerpicking Guitar Champion and songwriter.

His songs have been recorded by Chet Atkins, Kenny Rogers and others. He performed with the “Guys All Star Shoe Band” for 20 years. Donohue shows his audience how agreeable a guitar can sound when picked by a champ.

On Tuesday, July 19, the Bombadils will perform, at 7 p.m.

The duo of Luke Fraser and Sarah Frank are often joined by Kaitlyn Raitz and Spencer Murry to share their love of folk songs and fiddle tunes. Luke plays the mandolin, and guitar while Sarah plays the fiddle and claw-hammer banjo entertaining their audience with music drawn from Canadian, American and Celtic traditions.

Rich Ortiz will deliver the third concert of the season Tues-

day, Aug. 2, at 7 p.m. His music is inspired by Jim Croce, James Taylor, The Beatles, Stevie Wonder and Willie Nelson.

He plays a 6 or 12 string acoustic guitar, harmonica, and peddle bass, turning heads with his music and vocals. Ortiz has opened shows for Chicago, REO Speedwagon, Ted Nugent, KC and the Sunshine Band and others.

Audiences are encouraged to bring their own chairs to these outdoor concerts. Each performance will provide great evening entertainment this summer.

These “Summer in the Park” concerts are made possible by The Essex County Arts Council Cultural Assistance Program Grant supported by the Essex County Board of Supervisors.

EYE ON THE ARTS

Drama “To be, or not to be, that is the question.” This phrase was written by William Shakespeare sometime between 1599 and 1602, and it is still quoted to this day.

Over 400 years of longevity. The line comes from “Hamlet,” part of a soliloquy wherein Prince Hamlet contemplates suicide while waiting for his love, Ophelia.

This phrase is recognizable to a huge percentage of the English-speaking world for the same reason that theater has continued its perpetual popularity: it’s an important expression of humanity.

Theater promotes imagination, prods our emotions, and utilizes our basic instinct to create meaning. It’s a vital piece of our culture. All of that aside, it’s just entertaining. It’s fun to watch and fun to experience. In the North Country, we’re lucky to have many talented troupes and dedicated theater programs to bring us opportunities to spectate joys and tragedies onstage.

Here are a few shows that will open this week and continue throughout the season: The Essex Theatre Company will offer repeat performances of Brian Yorkey’s rock musical “Next to Normal” during the month of July. “Next to Normal” takes audiences into a family’s internal struggle, presenting the intimate story with love and sympathy. This deeply-moving piece of theatre is an emotional powerhouse. “Next to Normal” succeeds in addressing uncomfortable topics like ethics in modern psychiatry, drug abuse and mental illness with poise. Performances are scheduled for July 16, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29, and 30 at 7:30 p.m. and July 17 and 24 at 5 p.m. Tickets are $15. For more information, call 518-526-4520 or visit essextheatre.org.

This month, the Adirondack Regional Theatre will present “Shrek the Musical, Jr” as part of its Young Directors Series. The series allows a young director to work with a group of their peers to produce a musical or play. All cast members are aged 7-18. Performances will be available on July 14 in Rouses Point’s Civic Center, July 15 at the Peru Central School Auditorium, on July 16 at Amazing Grace Vineyard in Chazy and at the Champlain Centre Mall in Plattsburgh on July 17. Tickets are $10. For more information on tickets and showtimes, visit adktheatre.com.

The Adirondack Shakespeare Company’s 2016 season will open this month with performances in Schroon Lake, Chazy, Essex, Indian Lake, Saratoga Springs and more. Shakespeare’s “Richard III,” “Much Ado About Nothing,” “Hiawatha,” and “The Comedy of Errors” will be featured this year. Visit adkshakes.org for more information on individual presentations. For more information on the Adirondack Shakespeare Company, call 518-803-HARK. The Upper Jay Art Center’s presentation of the Annie Baker play “Body Awareness” will continue until July 17. “Body Awareness” is what Time Out New York calls “an astonishingly complex web of emotions and ideas ... a smart, modest work about ordinary, flawed people, grasping for connection.” Tickets are $18 per person. Reservations are recommended. For more information, call 518-946-8315.

The Lake Theatre in Lake George will open its 2016 Dinner Theater season on July 21. “Almost, Maine,” the first show of the season, combines nine short plays that explore love and loss in the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine. The play was featured in “New Playwrights: Best Plays of 2006” and was the most produced play in North American high schools from 2009 to 2012. To purchase tickets, which range from $40-69, call the Lake Theatre Box Office at 518-668-5762 ext. 411. For more information, visit laketheatreproductions.com.

Pendragon Theatre in Saranac Lake. “Amadeus,” written by Peter Shaffer, offers a fictionalized account of the relationship between composers Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Antonio Salieri. The Pendragon production will be directed by Kimberly Bouchard, Associate Professor of Theatre at SUNY Potsdam. “Amadeus” will run from July 15 to July 30. For more information on tickets and individual showtimes, visit pendragontheatre.org or call 518-891-1854.

The Adirondack Theatre Festival will present Zoe Samuel’s “A Comedy of Manors” at the Charles Wood Theater in Glens Falls this month. “A Comedy of Manors” follows a family left with debt in the millions and an estate about to foreclose after the death of a relative.

The family struggles to save the estate’s future by doing what anyone would do: stealing a priceless — and hideous — painting and selling it on the black market. The only problem? Everyone thinks they’re working alone, and no one knows which painting to steal. The laugh out loud play will only run until July 22. Tickets are $32-45. For more information, visit atfestival.org.

Tethering law introduced at county level

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — A proposed dog tethering law sparked lively discussion between county lawmakers and advocates on Monday.

The proposed legislation includes roughly one dozen measures to curb what critics say is an inhumane practice that leads to animal cruelty and public safety issues.

If passed, the law would result in sweeping changes to how county residents must care for their dogs.

The legislation would prohibit residents from leaving their dogs tethered to a fixed point while not present.

It would also ban the tethering of canines for more than an hour where the owner isn’t physically present, but within

the residence.

Regulations governing pulleys and enclosure systems would also be implemented, including a measure that would require the latter to be at least 150 square feet per dog.

For the first offense, violators would be subject to a $250 fine or 15 days imprisonment, or both.

Lawmakers said while they generally agreed with the concepts underpinning the legislation, they were concerned that the law was too broad and would be unable to be enforced.

The legislation, for instance, would require dogs to be brought indoors between 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

Ronald Moore (R-North Hudson) expressed concern on how this would impact folks who let their dogs out at night, including himself.

“I’m not sure where that’s coming from,” Moore said.

The lawmaker also said dog control officers needed to be dialed into the proposed policies.

Rising to the occasion: Hoop dreams continue for Moriah standout

By Jason Hughes

news@suncommunitynews.com

MORIAH — It is said that big players play their best in the biggest games. But with 5:30 left in the fourth quarter of the state Class D semifinals at the Glens Falls Civic Center, recent Moriah graduate Taylor Slattery had his hands full.

Looking up at the scoreboard to see a 13-point Panama lead, Slattery looked down the bench. Most of his teammates and coaches had their heads down, looking at the floor. Was this the end?

Was Moriah’s season and Slattery’s career going to end with a third straight loss in the state semifinals?

The answer was no. Slattery rose, literally and figuratively.

“I don’t want to go out like this,” the senior said.

Returning to the game, Slattery led a furious comeback in the last 5 minutes, highlighted by a thunderous slam dunk that cut Panama’s lead to six and brought what seemed like was the entire town of Moriah in attendance into a frenzy.

“It was so loud,” Slattery recalled. “My head was ringing, I couldn’t hear anything. We had never been in that position before, trailing like that late in a game. The comeback was one of the most amazing feelings of my life.”

Moriah went on to win the game 62-59, scoring the final 16 points of the game holding Panama scoreless those last 5:30.

While Moriah set a state tournament record with that late staged comeback, the very next day they were victim to a record themselves.

In the Class D Finals, Oriskany hit a tournament record 15 3-pointers en route to defeating the Vikings 7954. Despite the loss, Slattery learned a valuable lesson.

“Never give up. I didn’t give up. We didn’t give up.

We always said as a team, as seniors, me, Adam (Jaquish), Noah (Gilbo), Todd (Clarke), Jarrod (MacDougal), Billy (Larrow), Chuckie (Bryant), our time will come. That last 5 minutes against Panama was our time,” Slattery said.

“We lost in the finals, but our team, our families, our fans were still riding so high from the day before that it really didn’t hurt that bad to lose.”

Reaching the state finals and falling just short helped Slattery keep things in perspective.

“Every player in New York’s Class D basketball season ended that day. We just didn’t get the trophy,” Slattery said.

“But we got there. It was great to be playing on Saturday instead of watching the finals from the stands. We had done that for two years in a row. Trust me, playing on Saturday was way better,” he laughed.

While Slattery has made

a name for himself on the hardwood, his experiences on the football field and baseball diamond also helped make him the basketball player he is.

“Those football practices were intense,” Slattery said.

“You build such camaraderie and friendships with your teammates. And the rivalry with Ti is enough to motivate you. I’m not really a football guy, I’m a big basketball guy, everyone knows that, but I’m not sure if there’s anything better than 1,000 people at a Ti-Moriah football game.”

But make no mistake about it. For not being a “football guy” he held his own. The 6’5” wide receiver made a great target for his 6’7” quarterback, Adam Jaquish. The Vikings went undefeated in the CVAC, including a 28-6 week three upset of then fourth-in-the-state ranked Ticonderoga, the only regular season loss for the eventual state runner-up.

Slattery caught 4 passes for 76 yards that night, including a 28-yard touchdown, and on defense added an interception, picking off Ticonderoga quarterback Evan Graney.

“That’s one of the things I will remember most about high school,” Slattery said.

“That rivalry with Ti. Records, rankings, don’t really mean anything. So many games the last three years have come down to one score, one basket, one run.

Anything can happen in those games. It was awesome to be a part of that.”

Ticonderoga defeated Moriah 6-0 in overtime in the Section 7 finals, the Vikings only loss of the season.

After football and basketball it was on to baseball for Slattery, where he and his teammates looked forward to playing for Coach Casey Nephew, one of their assistant football coaches as well.

“We knew we weren’t going to have a great baseball team, but we all have a lot of respect for Coach Nephew, so we took it really seriously, worked really hard for him,” Slattery said. “And the highlight of our season was playing a really good game against Ticonderoga. They’re always a powerhouse in baseball, and we usually get crushed, but we played a really good

game that day and kept it to a one run game. To play them so tight, that was almost like a win to us. We were pretty happy about that.”

Now that Slattery’s high school sports career is over, he is one of the few from the area that gets to go on and play at the next level. He will be taking his talents to Hudson Valley Community College, the site of Moriah’s regional win over Section 2’s Argyle on their road to the state finals.

“The coaches got to see him play against Argyle and were really impressed,” Slattery’s mother Darlene Slattery said. “They saw how he played in the Civic Center and felt he was a great fit for their program. We are so excited to be able to still see him play for at least the next two years.”

While Slattery had considered joining high school teammate Adam Jaquish at Plattsburgh State, and also considered playing for Clinton Community College, Slattery and his family ultimately decided that Hudson Valley was the best fit.

“He has been close to the Plattsburgh program for years, attending camps there every year, and of course played so many high school games in the fieldhouse that the coaches really wanted him to come play there,” his mother said. “But playing time was going to be tough at Plattsburgh. They have eight players returning. Hudson gives him the opportunity to play a lot of minutes right away and that was important to Taylor.”

Realizing that nothing is guaranteed, Slattery is still working out and continues to work on developing his basketball skills.

“I know I need to get stronger, continue to become a better player. It’s going to be way more competitive than what I am used to, I know that,” Slattery said.

Not being sure of an academic major weighed into Slattery’s decision of choosing a two-year school over committing to a four-year school.

“I know I can’t play basketball forever. And I am still not sure what I want to study, so I wanted a little more freedom. I am sure I will figure it out, but this gives me the chance to go to school for two years, play for two years, and hopefully transfer to a four-year school,” he added.

“Playing three sports in high school has taught me a lot, especially about hard work. You have to work hard and not just in sports and school, but in life too. I think I have developed a good work ethic. My brothers, my parents have taught me that, shown me that,” Slattery said.

“Yes, I want to do well playing basketball in college, but I want to get a good job too, work hard, stay true to myself, and make everyone who has rooted for me, especially my family proud of me.”

CROWN POINT

Relay for Life plan anniversary events CROWN POINT — Relay for Life Crown Point will be celebrating their fifth year Saturday, Aug. 20, at Veteran’s Memorial Park, from noon to midnight.

Everyone has been touched by cancer, organizers say, and this event is intended to bring the community together for 12 hours to celebrate life and remember the victims.

Relay for Life was started in Crown Point in 2012 by the efforts of Carie Pertak and Anita Johnson, local residents with a compassion for aiding cancer survivors.

The planning process includes organizing opening events, sponsorships donations, teams, volunteers, meetings, themes, closing events, clean-up and final meetings.

The walk will start with an opening ceremony, opening prayers, a survivor’s ceremony, survivor’s lap and caregiver’s lap.

And then the event begins.

Paying homage to the fifth year of the event, this year’s theme is “Birthday Party” and the decorations — including a large cake in the center of the track festooned with balloons and gifts — have been selected to match.

Every hour, walkers will participate in themed laps, including walking backwards, a three-legged lap and dressing in variety of different costumes, including Western and purple-colored attire.

Other events include yoga (for both adults and children), line dancing and live entertainment from a country singer. Games

include a giant checker board, tic tac toe, frozen t-shirt, birthday bean bag toss, three-legged kid race, night bowling and piñata.

There will also be a cake auction.

A survivors tent will be set up and open all day for all survivors and caregivers.

A luminary will start at dusk. The Closing Ceremony will start at 11:30 p.m., with an acknowledgement given to the teams.

All are welcome. The teams will all have campsites and will have items for sale.

Organizers are continuing to look for survivors, caregivers, relay teams and volunteers. To sign up, visit goo.gl/36G4Pg. For the full schedule of events, visit their website or find them on Facebook.

Tom had a great love for music and played in a band called “Trying Times” with his brother and good friends Paul Tarte, Larry Austin, & Jimmy Bodette. When asked why the name, his answer was “it was a sign of the times back then!” He very much loved listening to his daughter Brette sing. “The voice of an angel” he always said. One of his favorite artists was Elvis Presley.

In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made in his name to either St. Peter’s Church in Vergennes or the United Church of Lincoln in Lincoln Vermont.
