Labor Day 2015: anything but restful here Weekend includes Trek-con, annual parades and fireworks, history train throughout region

et the party begin!

As the North Country prepares to say their farewells to those who “summer” and celebrate the unofficial end of summer, those looking for one last opportunity to soak it all in will have chances to do so throughout the region over the Labor Day weekend.

Trekonderoga James Cawley, the creative mastermind behind the Internet series “Star Trek: New Voyages,” is bringing the Star Trek Convention experience to downtown Ticonderoga this weekend with the three-day voyage, Trekonderoga, along with the help of Lance Clark and Nancy Archer of the Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance.

It’s mission: to explore bringing a convention to Ticonderoga; to seek out other genres of Sci-fi, such as the original Batmobile; to (hopefully) grow into a full comi-con type event in years to come.

Events kick off Friday, Sept. 4, with tours of the downtown studio where New Voyages is produced, a dealer room, and a Star Trek dinner-dance with Mr. Scott’s Time Travel Band, led

by Carl Sheldon, the movie-era Mr. Scott.

Events with special guests begin Sept. 5, which will include several Star Trek writers and former actors, including Sally Kellerman, who was a cast member in the second pilot episode for the original Star Trek series, but went on to star as Maj. Margaret “Hot Lips” Houlihan in the movie, M�A�S�H. Other guests include Don Marshall (actor, Lt. Boma), Eric Stillwell (writer, producer), BarBara Luna (actress, Marlena Moreau), Louise Sorrell (actress, Rayna Kapec), Sean Kenney (actor, Capt. Christopher Pike in original series), David Gerrold (author) and David Galanter (author).

A question and answer session with each of the guests will be part of the Sept. 5 events, along with autograph sessions, tour of the New Voyages set, movie making workshops, >> Story Continued | pg. 8

Welcome back!

One year later: St. Mary’s School is ready to open A deep well of community support helped the school come back

By Christopher Pratt

TICONDEROGA — Like so many years before, teacher Karlene Gonyeau spent the last days of August getting desks and supplies set up for a new classroom of second-graders at St. Mary’s School in Ticonderoga. But a heightened level of joy and a sense of appreciation was almost palpable as she carried out these seemingly routine tasks in the newly renovated facility.

On Sept. 5 of last year, a fire broke out in multiple spots at the Catholic school along Amherst Avenue. The blaze was a strike at the heart of a building that has educated generations of families and been a staple of the community for decades. Police have continued to investigate the incident as a suspicious fire and many questions still remain.

But Gonyeau never doubted the school would forge a big comeback. “Even the night of the fire, the idea of closing the school never came up,” Gonyeau said, “The community rallied around us.”

The climb back to this point took more than an insurance payout or additional hours from a couple of teachers — it truly took a village. The local chamber of commerce rallied businesses to make donations. Other faith communities also rose in support of the school, including First United Methodist Church, which opened up space up for students in the lower grades — the basement of St. Mary’s church basement hosted students in grades five through eight.

People also supported the comeback through giving donations to a GoFundMe website, which was established for the Catholic community. It has raised thousands of dollars throughout the year. >> Story Continued | pg. 5

“They do a lot of different stuff that benefits the community,” Pike said.

Arzberger, the teacher, said she was brimming with anticipation to see all the students come together at the beginning of the year. Having students spread out at different buildings after the fire was a big test last year, she said, but the community has become stronger. ”It’s just going to be so exciting for them to all be sitting in one place together and feel like they’re home: we’re home,” Arzberger said.Ò

Sister Sharon Anne Dalton said being able to get teachers back in the building last week and having students return to classes on Sept. 8 was an event to be celebrated. “This is a culmination of all the work that we’ve been doing,” she said.

Adding to the celebration, will be a visit by Bishop Terry LaValley, who is expected to attend a blessing at St. Mary’s over the Labor Day weekend.

Behaving badly

ast week early morning TV viewers in Virginia were shocked when a disgruntled former WDBL station employee killed a young reporter and the cameraman filming her interview.

We learned the shooter was Vester Flanagan, who professionally went by the name Bryce Williams. He was described as someone who was difficult to work with, easily offended and sometimes feared. Prior to the shooting, Flanagan had previous employment issues that, at one time, would have been made known to the management at WDBJ. Nothing in Flanagan’s background disqualified him from buying the gun he used to commit this crime.

As for his mental health, the standard in federal law is very high: “adjudicated as a mental defective” or “committed to a mental institution.” Nothing in Flanagan’s history indicates that either standard fit him, but it appears many others were aware of his reputation as an unstable person.

So many of these senseless shootings end up being committed by unstable individuals that others knew, but that common knowledge is unable to be put into the public domain for fear of legal retribution.

In 2013 there was a total of 404 workplace homicides according the US Labor Bureau of Statistics. Colleagues and former coworkers were responsible for 74 of those 404 deaths.

During my 40+ year business career, I’ve personally witnessed a number of dismissals that have gone very badly. Thankfully, none ever resulted in an injury or death, although there were times when we called law enforcement.

Employers are frequently warned by human resource legal specialists that no good deed goes unpunished. In today’s workplace one of the most damaging things a well meaning employer can do is to provide employment information to another employer. Even something as simple as a letter of positive recommendation can come back to haunt the employer.

While I’m not advocating for trampling on anyone’s personal rights there must be some form of clearing house that can be developed where private records can be compiled and maintained, if for nothing more than further screening should someone amass numerous red flags from multiple independent sources.

We must find a solutions to help unstable individuals get the counseling they need and prevent them from obtaining lethal weapons.

A community of caring sees the fruit of its labors E

xactly one year ago today, students were set to enjoy their first weekend of the 2014-15 school year.

In the town of Ticonderoga, on a night that should have been reserved for taking in the first home game of the varsity football season, that all changed when just after 11 p.m. Sept. 5, a teacher working late at the school heard a noise and detected smoke at St. Mary’s Catholic School.

Hours later, firefighters, teachers, staff and the community of St. Mary’s school were left to witness the damage as the sun came up on a Saturday morning that changed their lives and those in the community.

There was little time to hang heads and mourn the sudden loss of supplies, materials and the building that had long been home to local children and teachers.

Immediately, plans were put in place to get the kids back into school. Younger kids found a new home when the First United Methodist Church of Ticonderoga opened its door to help another member of the ecumenical community.

With the youngsters set up, the basement of St. Mary’s Church became home for the middle school students, who were able to continue their learning.

Also as quick were the efforts to replace everything which was damaged. Organizations like the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, Knights of Columbus, Elks, International Paper, Rotary - this list can go on forever - stepped up to supply needed items for students like paper, pencils, classroom supplies and more.

Former students now miles away started GoFundMe pages on the internet, bringing in more supplies and needed money.

Dinners were planned. Bake sales by students themselves were held. We reported on the efforts of Aubrey Whitford, who helped design a “St. Mary’s Strong” sweatshirt which raised funds toward the cause.

Catholic charities and many of the regional diocese also helped out. Last week, we reported on a supply drive happening now through Margot Kapusinski, who summers in Hullet’s Landing and is asking for help from her home diocese in New Jersey.

This all shows what a community can do when they rally together for the common good. In fact, the Ticonderoga community is at it again, recently holding Rhyan’s Ride to benefit Rhyan Towne, a young man battling disease.

His t-ball league also held a fundraiser for he and his family earlier in the year.

We have seen this before. We saw it in Keene, Jay and other towns after Tropical Storm Irene blew through leaving a path of damage rarely seen in the North Country. We saw it in Elizabethtown and Westport when communities banded together to help fight for youth in need of organ transplants.

This sense of oneness is special in the North Country, and something we should not take for granted.

With all this being said, the biggest question has yet to be addressed.

On Sept. 6, there is scheduled to be a re-opening mass and dedication at the school.

Part one of closure for the Ticonderoga and St. Mary’s community.

Two days later, students will rush into their “new” school for the first time in 368 days.

Part two of closure.

So what will be the final chapter which will bring full closure to this community?

The St. Mary’s School fire was ruled arson by state investigators shortly after it was put out. Touring through the charred innards of the school, our reporters could see where the ignition points in five locations were, not at all accidental. This is the final question which needs to be answered.

Those accountable need to be brought to justice, the final closure to allow a community, school and student body the chance to once and for all put a tragic moment behind them and remember the healing and celebration which all took place as the community bonded together in the aftermath.

COMMENTARY

Reaching Out and Saving Lives To the Editor: Did you know that experts believe that most suicidal individuals do not want to die? They just want to end the pain they’re experiencing. Experts also know that suicidal crises tend to be brief. So when warning signs are detected early, lives can be saved.

Suicide is an issue everywhere, and it’s an issue in Essex County. But there are services available in our community for assessing and treating suicidal behaviors and their underlying causes. The Essex County Suicide Prevention Coalition is sponsoring a Suicide Prevention Awareness Rally Tuesday, Sept.

8, from 11:30 am to 1 p.m. at the County Government Complex lawn in Elizabethtown. It is free and open to the public. The Suicide Prevention Awareness Rally features community agencies with the goal of raising awareness, providing information and increasing action to reduce suicide.

The Rally is one of the ways we’re reaching out. I hope to see you at the Rally – it’s for everyone and anyone – get help for yourself or get help for someone else. There is hope, and together we can reduce the number of lives affected by suicide.

Town Board passes resolutions To the Editor: Willsboro Town Board consisting of Charles Lustig, Nancy Huestis Eustis, Steven Benway, Shau Gillliland and me, unanimously approved the resolutions to change the grant from NYSENCON for the repairs to the river banks at the former Black Ash Pond to the west side of the Boquet River. We also approved at no cost to the Town to make a study of removing the dam located on Mill Street and School Street. In the resolution for the study Charles Lustig insisted that if the dam was to be removed a referendum of the Willsboro voters would be done requesting the voters to declare if they want the dam in or out. Both resolutions were passed unanimously by 2013 Town Board. During the discussion with the engineering company making the study I stressed that I wanted to see information on possible flooding in the Hamlet area and lamprey eel problem and what would the aesthetic appearance be of the hamlet river area. My concern was that if the dam was out, the water in that area

would be very shallow and the ice could freeze to the bottom of the river causing flooding in the spring. The problem does occur in the other rivers in the Adirondacks and ice buildup as in other rivers. Also if dam was out the lamprey eel could go up stream and do a lot of damage to the wild life of other streams that feed the Boquet River. It’s my understanding that very little study was done on my concerns and the present board of Lane Sayward, Steven Benway, Charles Lustig. Lori Sheehan and Shaun Gilliland rescinded or ignored the 2013 resolution. A resolution to take the dam was passed.

In Essex County, local races are shaping up

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — The entry of independent candidates into the pool of local races has firmed up the ballot for this year’s election cycle.

Here’s how the independent office seekers have shaken up the field.

SUPERVISOR RACES Indie entries created three-way races for the top slot in two towns.

In Chesterfield, Thomas Taylor will attempt to unseat incumbent Gerald Morrow (D) alongside Thomas Golden, a Republican.

Newcomb’s open seat now has three candidates seeking to replace outgoing supervisor George Canon: Independent candidate Robert Ward will challenge Wester Miga (R) and Democratic candidate Eleanor Yandon.

If elected, Yandon would be the town’s first female chief executive. Chesterfield, Keene and Westport are the others who have never elected a woman to the top slot.

North Elba will see the only non-partisan supervisor race with Roby Politi (I) facing a challenge from Brenden Donovan, also an independent.

In Essex, former two-term supervisor Sharon Boisen is seeking to regain the seat she lost to incumbent Ed Gardner, a Republican, in 2013.

North Hudson is the only town in Essex County with a primary for the top slot, where incumbent Ronald Moore faces a challenge from Bruce Caza on Sept. 10. Both are Republicans. Moore also filed to run as an independent; Caza did not.

Half of the county’s 18 town supervisors are running unopposed. Charles Harrington (R-Crown Point), Noel Merrihew (R-Elizabethtown), Archie Depo (D-Jay), Bill Ferebee (R-Keene), Tom Scozzafava (R-Moriah), Mike Marnell (R-Schroon), Bill Grinnell (R-Ticonderoga), Shaun Gillilland (RWillsboro) and Randy Preston (I-Wilmington) will all glide into another two-year term.

Two newcomers, Ike Tyler (R-Westport) and James Monty (R-Lewis), will not face challengers in their efforts to replace the outgoing supervisors in their communities.

Stephen McNally (D-Minerva) and Charles Whitson (R-St. Armand) serve four-year terms and are not up for re-election until 2017.

TOWN COUNCIL: PRIMARIES Jay, Lewis and North Hudson will see town council hopefuls battle it out next week in primaries.

Three open seats are available in Jay, including the

unexpired term left vacant by Depo, the long-serving councilman who was appointed supervisor following former Randy Douglas’ resignation in June.

Republicans Harold Akey, Thomas McDonald and John Sheldrake will compete in the primary.

The two winners from that contest will face Green Party candidate Fred Balzac, Democrat Chad Garcia and independent candidate Robert Segall this fall.

In Lewis, two seats are available. Republicans Lanita Canavan, Stephen Denton Jr. and Jeffrey Scott will face off for the open slot, with the two winners facing independent candidate Lawrence Hulbert in the general.

North Hudson has three Republican hopefuls vying for two available seats: Brian Caza, Stephanie DeZalia and Donald Dresser.

The winners will face Donald Langworthy (D) and Maureen Marsden, an independent, in the general election.

TOWN COUNCIL: ENTER THE INDIES A flush of independent town council candidates has fleshed out the ranks in several communities.

In Elizabethtown, Ben Morris and Jeff Allott are running for the pair of available seats. Without opposition, and barring a successful write-in candidate, Morris will retain his seat and Allott will join him.

Two candidates are running to fill the two open slots in Newcomb: Democrat Joseph Novak is now joined by independent David Olbert.

Four independent candidates are running in Essex for two available seats: Jonathan White, Jonathan Pribble, Thomas Stransky and James LaForest, who sat on the board before resigning in Nov. 2012.

All four entered the race after the deadline for partisan entries passed in July.

In North Elba, Republican candidate Jay Rand Jr. now has two independent challengers seeking two available seats: Travis Isham and Francis Miller.

Two seats are open in Chesterfield. Joseph Kusalonis has filed to run as an independent, joining Republicans Russell Blaise and David Gload alongside John Casey, the Independence Party candidate.

In Schroon, Marcia Hartnett has joined the race as an independent and will compete against Republicans Clara Phibbs and Don Sage in the quest for two available seats.

TOWN COUNCIL: PARTISAN RACES No independents have filed in St. Armand, where Donald Amell (D) faces Karen Dekkers and Dean Montroy, both Republican newcomers.

In Westport, hopefuls Barry Morrison and Timothy Sherman, both Republicans, will compete alongside incumbent Nancy Page, a Democrat, for

two available seats this fall.

In Willsboro, newcomers John Drinkwine (D) and Dean Caveney, a Republican, join incumbents Steven Benway and Lane Sayward, both Republicans, in the race for two available seats.

Six towns do not have competitive races this year.

Challengers have not stepped forward in Crown Point, Keene, Minerva and Wilmington, while single candidates in Moriah and Ticonderoga will fill single seats that are slated to be vacated.

OTHER RACES Just one town clerk in Essex County faces opposition.

In Crown Point, Marjorie Hurlbert will run against incumbent Arthur Miclette. Both are Republicans.

In Westport, incumbent William LaHendro will face challenger Richard Nicholas for the seat that was vacated by Ike Tyler earlier this year upon the decision to run for supervisor.

Westport is exploring the idea of eliminating one justice position as a cost-saving measure. Residents have 30 days from the last board meeting, which was Aug. 27, to collect signatures for a permissive referendum. If organizers are successful, then voters will decide at the polls this fall.

Two assessors will face challenges. In Essex, Anita Shapiro (D) is running against Republican incumbent David Sayre. In Minerva, Jeremy Hitchcock is running for an available slot against incumbents Bruce Hammond and Philip Johnston.

HIGHWAY SUPERINTENDENTS The most competitive race is in Ticonderoga, where the town will see two Republicans, Paul Sharkey and David Iuliano, facing off in a primary for the highway superintendent slot. The winner will face Dennis Hunsdon, Sr. (D) and independent candidates Salvatore Barnao and Pamela Savage this fall COUNTYWIDE Two countywide officials are up for reelection this fall.

Essex County Judge Richard Meyer will face a challenge on the Conservative Party line from Brian Barrett, the Lake Placid defense attorney who is also running on the Democratic line, on Sept. 10.

Essex County Clerk Joe Provoncha is facing a challenge from Luke Hudak, a first-time candidate who is running as a Democrat.

lose your eyes and picture your favorite old barn and silo. Where are they?

As we sat on our back deck along the river a few days ago, Kaye and I sipped coffee and opined about that very subject.

When it’s time to write this column, I beg my muses for inspiration. In this case, a friend posted a photo of a charming wooden barn and sagging silo on a social site and it set my mind to whirling. Kaye’s, too.

She was instantly transported to a wonderfully weathered wooden structure off State Route 3 on the Goldsmith Road. I have passed it numerous times and snapped photographs, but the picture in my mind is indelible. There are many more. My favorites are in St. Lawrence County where those once flourishing dairy farms are now empty, decrepit and moldering.

I’m glad and sad, happy remembering what used to be, but not so much for the fact that many once burgeoning farms are now abandoned and crumbling.

We love to drive around and look for such places.

Kaye and I stop and try to imagine a bustling family heading out to do the morning chores; milking 35 or 40 head of Holsteins by hand; dumping pails of raw milk into cans and hoisting them into the cooler.

Kaye’s memories take her back to what was known as “the Gale” in Jericho, now the home of a local YMCA Day Camp. The house is gone, but the beautiful old barn is still there welcoming laughing youngsters every summer day. I am transported back in time to the early1950s when I worked for Dave Hilts outside Moira in Franklin County. We used the old horse to hoist loose hay from the wagon and pulled the trip rope to deposit it in the mow; then sweating to climb up and “mow it away” with a pitch fork.

We have marveled at stone barns, round barns, pole barns and many more.

We love one on Cape Cod that houses antique cars and another surrounding a carousel. We recall seeing Amish barns in many places. We have visited the wellkept barns on the Hearts Delight Miner Farm in Chazy.

We especially enjoy stopping by some ancient wreck of a barn and imagining what it was like in its glory days.

Bless those of you who have an old barn you have repurposed to hold your collection of antiques or arrowheads or paintings or whatever. And bless those of you who paint and photograph the old barns for us to enjoy in perpetuity.

The annual Labor Day parade will take place at 1 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 6. Lineup will take place at noon at the old Knights of Columbus building, stepping off an hour later and making its way down Broad and Main streets.

The chamber recently announced that Julia Podres, 103-year-old native of Witherbee, has been selected as Grand Marshal of the 126th Annual Labor Day Parade.

In February, Podres talked about her longevity.

“I like working hard,” she said. “When I come down the stairs in the morning, I say my prayers, read the Bible, exercise, make breakfast and then start my work.”

Podres said she starts her day around 7 a.m. and heads to bed around 8 p.m. She believes these practices have helped her stay active for a century-plus three.

“I just went to the doctor and he told me instead of me going to see him, he should be coming to see me,” Podres said.

“I never thought I would live this long, but I have always had a pleasant life.”

Two school districts to offer all students free meals Schroon Lake and Ticonderoga schools qualify for a special provision based on high number of lowincome students

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — All students in the Ticonderoga and Schroon Lake school districts have been cleared to receive free breakfasts and lunch during the school year, according to district superintendents.

That means families who have had to fill out paperwork in order to qualify for free and reduced meals won’t

have to complete forms this year.

The free meals were made possible through the Community Eligibility Provision, which was included in a piece of federal legislation passed five years ago. That legislation, the Healthy, HungerFree Kids Act of 2010, allows schools with high poverty rates to provide free meals to all students, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture website.

The thinking behind the provision is that students will face fewer hurdles on their way to getting meals at schools if the burden of collecting household applications to determine eligibility is taken off the table.

Ticonderoga approves water main project in Chilson Local company awarded $826K contract

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — To shore up part of the town water system, construction crews will replace pipes, valves and conduct pavement repairs in a section of Chilson.

Ticonderoga town board members on Aug. 4 unanimously voted to approve an $826,000 contract with Reale Construction Co., Inc. Construction is expected to occur in the area that includes the town’s Chilson Reservoir on Old Chilson Road, according to the New York Bid Network website.

After heavy rains and flooding associated with Hurricane Irene pounded the area in 2011, town officials requested federal financial assistance to relocate the Ticonderoga Chilson Transmission main from its route within Chilson Brook to a new route that aligns closely with the right-of-way on State Route 74.

No firm date was set for construction to begin at the August meeting, but town officials were expected to schedule a conference with the company to map out a project timeline.

Hayley Best named to Dean’s List ALBANY — Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences is pleased to announce that Hayley Best from Ticonderoga earned a place on the school’s Dean’s List for the Spring 2015 semester.

Dean’s List status is awarded to students who have successfully completed their course work with a semester grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 or higher out of a possible 4.0 score.

Donald said of the district’s recent involvement in the program.

Now, officials can verify low-income information through other programs like the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.

Schroon Lake Superintendent Stephen Gratto said a lot of students who could have benefitted from the program in the past may have missed qualifying for it due to a small number of dollars.

Families will have less stress related now and can put money towards other food items. They said it can help

students worry less about filling up and focus more on learning.

The Washington D.C.based Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a nonpartisan research and policy institute, compiled a database of school data related to the Community Eligibility Provision. In the 2014-15 academic year, the group found 57 percent of Schroon Lake students were identified as low-income. In addition, it found 55 percent of Ticonderoga elementary students and 38 percent of Ticonderoga high school students were identified as low-income.

Schools with more than

40 percent of students identified as low-income are eligible for the program. Those schools that have identified 62.5 percent of students or higher as low-income have all of their meals reimbursed by the federal government.

MEALS BY THE NUMBERS In the 2014-15 school year, more than 130 districts and 900 schools in New York State were involved with the Community Eligibility Provision.

Ticonderoga Central discussing solar program A state program could help the district save on energy costs

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — Sleek solar panels could be coming to the Ticonderoga school district.

District officials have been weighing the possibility of participating in K-Solar.

The joint project of the New York Power Authority and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority aims to provide school districts the tools to bring solar equipment to their facilities.

School board members discussed the solar program’s potential at a meeting last month.

“We thought it would be a good time to explore the concept of solar, to see if it

works,” Superintendent John McDonald said in a phone interview earlier this week.

According to the New York Power Authority’s website, school districts can participate “AT NO COST and NO OBLIGATION.” McDonald said involvement in the program could allow the district to save a significant amount of money on energy costs.

“The good thing about the K-solar (program) is they guarantee a savings,” he said.

The superintendent said officials are likely to discuss the solar program at the next school board meeting.

“Right now, the district is weighing do we do rooftop systems, or can we find a way to do a ground mount system,” he said.

More than 250 school districts have registered for the solar program, according to the Power Authority’s website .

Earlier this year, members of the Ticonderoga Central School board of education approved a capital project which calls for the renovation of the elementary roof and some parts of the high school roof, along with the addition of solar paneling.

Vacation rental tax all but certain in Essex County

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County is primed to collect tax on vacation rental units beginning on Jan. 1, 2016.

Applying the 3 percent occupancy tax on these units — furnished homes that have multiplied in recent years with shifts in the tourism industry — is estimated to net the county at least $250,000 per year.

Under the current law, the county already has the authority to collect the tax, Essex County Attorney Daniel Manning told lawmakers on Monday. They’ve just never opted to do so.

“We’ve had the authority to levy tax against vacation rentals all along,” said Manning.

Since 1999, the proceeds of the tax have been kicked over to the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) to promote the county’s tourism assets.

Last year, the county’s traditional hoteliers generated slightly under $2 million.

Initial research revealed about 500 individuals who are advertising units online within the county, ROOST CEO James McKenna told lawmakers last month. It’s a number that is likely to grow as tourists seek out increasingly tailored travel experiences, he said.

McKenna noted the private rental industry assists with large countywide events, including Ironman and the Wilmington Whiteface Bike Fest, because traditional lodging avail-

ability cannot meet demand.

Leases over 30 days, including hunting camps, will be exempt from the tax, as are campgrounds without permanent buildings.

In Wilmington, vacation rental units have surpassed traditional lodging opportunities, said Supervisor Randy Preston, who is “100 percent in favor” of the measure.

“The sooner, the better,” said Preston. “I’m happy we’re moving forward. It should have been done sooner.”

Lawmakers were initially skeptical of levying another tax on the community when they first grew wise to the issue in March. Discussion at one early meeting grew so calamitous, several lawmakers walked out of discussions.

But they’ve since mellowed after a special task force helped sweeten the deal.

In the past, supervisors in the southern part of the county complained at ROOST’s technique for disseminating the funds, arguing that the money was chiefly spent to promote northern attractions. (Northern lawmakers, for their part, countered with the fact that the majority of the funds are generated in their communities).

Each town will now receive a $2,500 annually as part of a new Tourism Enhancement Fund, or TEF, a number that may increase depending on revenues. Provided they meet certain guidelines, they can use it however they’d like.

Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said the TEFs were a good start.

Fort Ti welcomes homeschoolers TICONDEROGA — Homeschool students and their parents are invited to join Fort Ti for a day exclusively reserved for them Friday, Sept. 18. Spend the day at Fort Ticonderoga and take part in a series of interactive and immersive experiences while participating in special programs, visiting museum exhibitions, and exploring Fort Ticonderoga’s vast and beautiful landscape including the King’s Garden, Carillon Battlefield Hiking Trail, and Heroic Corn Maze.

“Throughout the day students can explore Fort Ticonderoga, take guided tours to learn about Ticonderoga’s epic histo-

“At least we’re getting something back to promote our areas,” said Scozzafava. “You gotta level the playing field somehow.”

The lawmaker said businesses shouldn’t be negatively impacted because the fee is incurred by the consumer, not the business owner.

Scozzafava said he will recommend that the town board use the funds to bolster the amount the town already gives the local chamber of commerce.

The change in policy comes six months after the board was pressured into taking action by a group of local hoteliers who argued that the policy was unfair.

Bert Yost, President of B&B Adirondack Collections, said while he hadn’t seen the full law, he was pleased at the tentative deal, including the $50,000 that will be dedicated to the Essex County Fish Hatchery in Crown Point.

“There’s always fishermen here, and that’s an important part of tourism in the area,” said Yost.

Todd Ottenstein runs Adirondack-Vacation, a Wilmington-based vacation rental unit agency, with his wife, Kimmy.

While he’s not a fan of the law, he will comply.

Bumping costs by 3 percent by lead to a decrease in rentals, he said.

Three percent of $3,000 is $90, a increase that may prove to be the death blow to middle class folks seeking to stay at one of his units.

ry, and thrill at musket demonstrations,” said Rich Strum, Director of Education. “They can learn about the French troops who helped construct Fort Carillon (Ticonderoga) in 1756.

Interacting with these French soldiers, students will discover what life was like for an 18th-century soldier. What did he eat? Where did he sleep? What did he wear? Where did his clothes come from?”

In addition, special hands-on programs for homeschool groups take place in the historic trade shops at 10:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m., and 2:30 p.m. Programs illustrating the process of feeding the troops as the mid-day meal is prepared takes

“You don’t know if that $90 is the difference between people staying and not staying,” said Ottenstein.

Ottenstein said he hoped the revenue would be used “for the betterment of Wilmington and the entire region.”

The entrepreneur also expressed cautious optimism that the increased marketing expenditures will aid in replacing the unknown number of people who may not book trips at his units due to the slightly higher price.

Despite the tax, the couple are in the process of building four more properties, expanding from six to 10 in the next year because “we believe in Wilmington.”

“There’s a plethora of activities for vacationers to do here,” said Ottenstein.

This fall, the county plans on launching a media campaign to alert business owners of the change in policy, explained Manning.

“It gives everyone notice of exactly what we’re doing.”

While open questions remain, including enforcement, it’s expected some of them will be hammered out later this fall when the New York Association of Counties meets in Lake Placid for their annual meeting.

On deck at the gathering is a session on the impact of shared economies on local governments.

It’s expected the full board will approve the motion at their full boarding meeting next Tuesday.

North Country-based band strikes record deal A record label led by the son of Waylon Jennings produced album

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — A local band has been logging serious miles, playing large venues and building connections with some big names in the music industry. But despite their recent feats, Last Daze remains firmly rooted in the North Country.

Members of the band include Katy Cole, Mick Changelo, Matt Dower and Chris Schempp. The group released its first album titled “Symbols & Snares” on Aug. 28.

The band draws its influences from a broad spectrum of musicians and has a diverse range of tunes. Schempp, the lead guitarist, said they’re not easy to pigeonhole in any one particular genre camp. It’s a fusion of different sounds and passionate lyrics.

“Some people think we’re like countryrock, others think we’re rock,” Schempp said.

But no matter what listeners call the music, it’s hard to deny that the group with humble origins has made an impression on some influential circles. Black Country Rock, the label fueling the band’s release, is led by Shooter Jennings. His father, the late Waylon Jennings, is famous for iconic songs including “Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys” and “Good Ol’ Boys,” the theme song for the “Dukes of Hazzard” television show.

The new album was recorded last year at the Station House Studios in Los Angeles.

Jennings, who is president of the record label and a key fixture in the outlaw country music genre, was integral to the composition of the

album, Schempp said.

Schempp, who hails from Indian Lake, said group members have played numerous festivals and concert halls across the nation to spread their music over the past year. Although distant gigs are now commonplace for the group, Schempp said no matter how far the group goes, they’ll always remember that they hail from the North Country. “We’re all from the Adirondacks, every one of us,” he

said.

Specifically, Schempp noted, the group traces its origins back to North Creek. He was quick to list off each member’s local credentials: Cole, who was born and raised in North Creek, can be heard on vocals, piano and acoustic guitar; Changelo, from Saranac Lake, is on the bass guitar; and Dower, from North Creek, plays drums.

Earlier in the summer, the band opened for

Jennings when he played at a venue in Warrendale, PA. And more gigs are in the works.

Schempp said one upcoming performance he’s looking forward to will be at the Utica Music and Arts Fest, which takes place Sept. 11 and 12.

The new album also includes key contributions from Jen Gadway of Schroon Lake.

Gadway said listeners will notice her on songs including “Momma Told You So,” “Kentucky” and “Heaven Will Let You In.” Gadway played with Cole for many years under the name Decadence. She has pivoted now to other ventures including a project with Downtown Cadillac. Gadway, whose life in music has allowed her to see a good swath of the U.S. and inner workings of the music industry, said working with Jennings was “amazing.”

LAST DAZE ALBUM DETAILS

A musical group comprised of Adirondack musicians makes up the band Last Daze. The group last week released its first album “Symbols & Snares.”

It was recorded on the label led by Shooter Jennings, a staple of the outlaw country music genre.

The album is being distributed by Select-O-Hits, Inc. It can be purchased through retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, FYE and iTunes. Learn more about the group by visiting its Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/ lastdaze.

NORTH HUDSON — Two candidates are vying in the Thursday, Sept. 10 election for the Republican Party nomination for the Town Supervisor seat in North Hudson. They are incumbent Ronald Moore and challenger Bruce Caza, who is a town assessor and has previously served as the supervisor.

The winners of the primary will earn a place on general election ballot in November. Other races on the ballot include town council. Polls are open from noon - 9 p.m. at the town office, 3024 U.S. Route 9. Sun Community News asked each candidate to complete a questionnaire for the primary election. Here are there answers:

RonaldÊ Moore

Age: 64

Grew up: Ticonderoga, NY Current address: P.O. Box 74, North Hudson, NY 12855 Education: Associate in Arts Degree; Public School Teacher Certification Occupation: Supervisor, Town of North Hudson Family: Married, two children Political experience: Board of Assessors, Town of North Hudson; Town Councilman, Town of North Hudson; Supervisor, Town of North Hudson; Essex County Board of Supervi-

Describe your career experience and how it has prepared you to serve as a supervisor?

I have served 21 years in the United States Submarine Force, achieving the highest enlisted rank of Master Chief Petty Officer. I worked in the New York State Department of Corrections for almost 13 years, as a Vocational Instructor and retiring as an Educational Supervisor. I have served my town for over seventeen continuous years as a member of the Board of Assessors, ten years on the Town Board and now almost four years as Supervisor. I believe that these experiences make me the most qualified candidate to continue the work we have begun.

What are the three most important issues facing North Hudson today?

To work through the land classification and Unit Management Plan process as the state acquires the Boreas Tract, to take advantage of the new recreational opportunities this purchase will provide and to attract new businesses and create jobs. Another priority will be to continue to repair and maintain our roads and minimize any tax increases.

What are three specific actions that you would support the Essex County Board of Supervisors taking that could improve economic conditions for local families?

We need to continue to lobby state and federal officials to fund their mandated items.

The mandated costs for 2015 represented over 80 percent of our Tentative Levy. If we were to

receive funding for these mandated items the levy placed on the people would reduce drastically thereby reducing their taxes.

Related to the tax rate and keeping it under the tax cap is a balanced budget whereby we no longer have to appropriate significant amounts of fund balance to do so. We have implemented a five year recovery plan to achieve the goal of a balanced budget and meet the 2 percent tax cap. This will be the third year of that plan and I strongly believe we need to stay the course, balance the budget and reduce the excessive use of fund balance.

We need to continue to explore ways of attracting new businesses to Essex County which will create jobs for our people. Whether we need to better promote tourism throughout the county or attract new businesses, we need to bring more people to our county. I believe when that happens we will see business growth, create new jobs and sustain those businesses and jobs we have now.

I believe keeping tax increases to a minimum, attracting new businesses to Essex County, creating new jobs and maintaining the businesses and jobs we have are the most important actions we can take to improve economic conditions for the people.

the Town Council Ð North Hudson and 4 years as Town Supervisor Ð North Hudson Community involvement: North Hudson Volunteer Fire Department Describe your career experience and how it has prepared you to serve as a supervisor?

I have already served in this position (19961999) and all four years we had zero percent increase in taxes. The bank account had more money in it when I left office than when I took office.

What are the three most important issues facing North Hudson today?

Frontier Town property Ð I believe that private money should own the property not public money. Spending habits we need a town attorney and not an attorney for the town. Recently the current administration spent over $20,000 of taxpayers money for a case that should never have happened. And safety for our highway employees, over the last couple of years our highway department has been cut to two employees, they work on the town and county roads with no flag men. We need at least four men on the highway department.

What are three specific actions that you would support the Essex County Board of Supervisors taking that could improve economic conditions for local families?

I would support all actions that the Essex County Board of Supervisors would take that would improve economics conditions for local families. But I would try to sponsor more real property tax reform such as: 1) Try to get the state legislators to pass state law to come up with another program like the STAR program for county taxes. 2) Change the way exemptions are handled with the real property tax law, get some of them funded by the state. 3) Encourage more consolidation at all levels.

Tony Kostecki, General Director of SMC says, “we produced a revue in 2013 entitled ‘The Great American Songbook’, and it was very well-received. This ‘Vol. 2’ revue features many of the same composers, but with a whole different set of memorable tunes.” The show features four singers and a pianist who are taking part in a post regular season outreach program which also will take the children’s opera “The Ugly Duckling” to schools across the North Country.

Kostecki continues, “This is the fourth year we have had this type of post-season outreach program and it has become

an important component of our success in the last part of our first century.” The 2015 post-season artists are Tascha Anderson, mezzo-soprano, Corey Battey, pianist, Ryan Hill, baritone, Margaret Newcomb, soprano and Clark Weyrauch, tenor. The five are in residence at Seagle Music Colony through early October.

Back at it: TACC September after business mixer set TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce (TACC) September After Business Mixer will be held Thursday, Sept. 17, at the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum, 137 Montcalm Street, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Sponsors providing door prizes are Bridge Point Communication, Fort Ticonderoga, Lake George Land Conservancy, Spic-N-Span Cleaning and the Wagon Wheel Restaurant.

Bodette’s Barbecue, newly opened downtown, will be providing specialty appetizers for the evening’s menu. In addition, Bodette’s will offer beer and wine for purchase as well as a non-alcoholic beverage.

“The Ticonderoga Heritage Museum and Bodette’s Barbecue are delighted to be partnering for this event, representing one of the advantages of Chamber membership,” shared June Curtis, a Heritage Museum Trustee.

In conjunction with the September After Business Mixer, the Heritage Museum will present a Soft Opening of their newest exhibit, “Once Upon the River”, highlighting the 19th century industrial era community where every business was dependent on the La Chute waters that cascaded down a series of waterfalls. This exhibit highlights the handcrafted models which recreate in miniature and exact detail the mills, forges and factories that developed along the LaChute River.

“Dedicated to expanding our educational offerings, the Heritage Museum formed a committee three years ago to develop this exhibit, naming it “Once Upon the River”, stated Trustee June Curtis. “We named it in reverence to Denise Huestis, a Heritage Museum Trustee and artist who created these exquisite models and authored a book by the same name.”

The exhibit tells the story of the 100 year

period that was essentially the golden age of Ticonderoga when thriving lumber camps spawned a world of merchants and falling water powered mills from grist to graphite.

“The Museum is excited by the prospect of placing these highly treasured items (models), chronicling our industrial accomplishments, into an exhibit worthy of them”, offered Sylvia Boyce, Heritage Museum Officer and committee member. “We are pleased at how well the exhibit is coming together and feel certain it will be met with great interest and joy. We feel “Once Upon the River” has captured the river’s impact on humans, the environment and society at large. We welcome everyone to join us on Sept. 17.”

The mission of the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum is to advance awareness and appreciation of the Industrial History of Ticonderoga through preservation and interpretation. The Museum is located in the “1888” building, next to Bicentennial Park, bordering the La Chute River which is the gateway to Lake Champlain, the last vestige of the Ticonderoga Pulp and Paper Co. and the only

surviving example of the Industrial Heritage on the La Chute River.

It originally operated as an interpretive center pertaining to the history of the paper and graphite industries in our area.

The graphite for the Dixon Ticonderoga pencil, the most recognized and revered pencil in the world, was originally mined on nearby Lead Mountain and processed in Ticonderoga.

Over time the exhibits have been enhanced, a successful children’s sum-

mer workshop series has become a mainstay and the Museum is now a Heritage Visitor Center along the Lakes to Locks Passage. The Museum is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors and operates seasonally with a small staff.

“We invite all Ticonderoga Area Chamber Members, businesses, and organizations along with their employees, co-workers, and volunteers to attend the September After Business Mixer and the soft opening of ‘Once Upon the River’ at the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum,” stated TACC Executive Director, Matthew Courtright.

For more information on the After Business Mixer visit ticonderogany.com or call TACC at 585-6619. For more information on the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum or the new exhibit call 585-2696.

Crown Point: water main work should wind down in October More improvements are in the works for ‘16

By Christopher Pratt

christopher@suncommunitynews.com

CROWN POINT — Town officials are hopeful work to repair a water main along Main Street will be completed by Oct. 17.

Earlier this week, crews were expected to begin the project to fix the main , town officials said in a statement last week.

Vehicle traffic is not expected to be impacted by construction, which will be along Main Street from the Crown Point Fire Station to Sugar Hill Road and Creek Road.

Board members this summer approved a $401,569 contract for the infrastructure work, which is expected to shore up some water system leaks.

Town officials said there will be one major interruption for all of Main Street and areas south. Property owners will be notified in advance, when the transfer from the old to the new water line takes place, officials said. If water service is going to be disconnected it will be between the hours of 8 a.m and 4 p.m. Disconnections are expected to take about an hour.

The Crown Point Central School’s water supply will not be affected by the project.

While officials are focused on having minimum inconveniences, they are recommending residents in the affected area keep a reserve of cooking and drinking water.

While crews are now targeting water main improvements, more extensive work is slated to be completed on the water system in 2016.

Residents with concerns should contact town supervisor Charles Harrington during business hours.

Ti Montcalm Street Partnership to auction off ‘rain barrels’ TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership (TMSP) and the TMSP Promotions Committee have announced that the 2015 Street Art Project Auction “Rain Barrels” will be held Wednesday, Sept. 9, at Eddie’s Restaurant. This is the fifth Street Art Project organized by TMSP. TMSP invites businesses, organizations, community members, and visitors to join the fun. Proceeds will benefit the TMSP and will be used for a Downtown Ticonderoga project.

A number of hand-painted rain barrels will be auctioned off. Sponsors and supporters of the event include Glens Falls National Bank, Optics of Ticonderoga, Libby’s Bakery Café, Adirondack Dental Health, Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, PRIDE of Ticonderoga, Alexander R.

Last year “Adirondack Benches” was the theme for the project. This year rain barrels will be sponsored by local businesses and organizations

and have been decorated by local artists and community members. Rain barrel use is also part of the Storm water Management plan for the Town of Ticonderoga to minimize rain water run-off.

“The goal of the street art project is to decorate Montcalm Street sidewalks and stores with hand-crafted, hand-painted art work done by local artists as a way to create additional visual interest in the downtown area as well as a fundraiser for a Montcalm Street Project to continue to enhance the Montcalm Street,” shared John Bartlett, TMSP Promotions Chairperson.

Another documentary, “The 46ers,” will be shown in an exclusive public screening at The Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LPCA). The film’s Director, Blake Cortright, will be on hand to give a behind the scenes look into making this documentary about the people who hike the 46 Adirondack High Peaks.

The first 46ers, Herbert Clark — along with brothers Robert and George Marshall — identified 46 mountains in Upstate New York with an elevation of 4,000 feet or higher. Between 1918 and 1925 they hiked to the summits of all 46 peaks. Since then, m o r e than 8,000 people have followed in their footsteps. Although subsequent surveys have found that four of these peaks are less than 4,000 feet, these original 46 remain the basis for becoming a 46er.

The film contains compelling stories, both humorous and heartrending, of

ordinary men and women who have done the extraordinary.

Tim Singer, 46er #1038, explained what climbing the mountains mean to him: “On top of a mountain, it’s too simple to say you’re a kid again, because it’s not that simple,” he said. “You’re just more yourself, you’re the real you and you just like life a lot more.”

This movie, filmed in the backyards of North Country residents, intertwines the beautiful scenery of our Adirondack Mountains with compelling stories.

If you would like to view Blake Cortright’s feature film, hike over to The Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LPCA), 17 Algonquin Drive, Lake Placid, New York.

The show starts at 7 p.m. on Sept 4. Tickets are $10 and are available by calling 518-523-2512 or can be purchased online at www.lakeplacidarts.com. More information about the documentary can be found on the project’s website, the46ersfilm.com.

ELCS, Westport Central initiate merger study

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — As kiddos begin trickling back to school next week to learn their ABCs, administrators are focusing on just one — M, for merger.

New this year on the personal curriculum of Elizabethtown-Lewis Central Superintendent Scott Osborne and his counterpart in Westport, Cynthia Ford-Johnston, is the merger study that both boards resolved to initiate earlier this summer.

Once the academic year takes off, said Osborne, he will focus on hiring a consultant.

Info will start trickling in as early as next month.

For the past two years, the boards have been holding a series of joint meetings to discuss

how they can work closer together. So far, they’ve resolved to share a superintendent at the beginning of the 2016-17 academic year (Osborne has been tapped for the top slot); they already share sports teams and several administrative personnel, including a new special education administer beginning this year.

“I think a merger study is a positive thing,” said Osborne. “At the very least, a third party will be examining our districts very closely. If nothing else, we’ll know more about the school and how to operate more efficiently.”

The goal isn’t to shut down the school, said the super, but rather to pull together resources for the students.

“I think together, we’re stronger,” said Osborne.

Reaction amongst staff and faculty has been quiet so far, said the superintendent. But of course, school doesn’t start until Sept. 8.

If the two districts were to successfully merge, which requires voter approval from both communities, they’d be beating the odds.

Since 2010, 17 of 19 school district merger attempts in New York have failed.

Many other attempts never come to fruition, like when Crown Point Central rejected a possible merger with Ticonderoga Central in 2013 after a public outcry.

Ford-Johnston called it a proactive move by both boards venturing into things knowingly and knowledgeably.

“It’ll be an interesting challenge,” said FordJohnston. “A bold step and a brave move.”

Also on deck for this fall at ELCS is the completion of a five-year budget plan and a report on the school’s facilities, including the bus garage at the corner of Route 73 and Court Street, a stone building that’s over a century old.

Once the findings are revealed, the question

for the board, said Osborne, is what to do with it: Should it be renovated? Sold? Kept, but used for something else?

The district also has two new faces serving in high-profile roles: Principal Rob Witkiewicz and Secretary to the Superintendent Allison Sucharzewski.

Westport, too, is slated for some changes.

Principal Adam Facteau moved to CV-TEC — a replacement hasn’t yet been officially announced — while the district will also see new technology and English teachers.

The district is also examining the possibility of a four-school share of a school lunch manager, a measure that would allow the districts to negotiate better prices and meal options.

“It’s going to be a very interesting year,” said Ford-Johnston.

‘The Escape’

BattinelliÊ capturesÊ theÊ DannemoraÊ prisonÊ breakÊ behind-the-scenes

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH/DANNEMORA — While community members stayed in their homes in fear, Damian Battinelli jumped in his car and followed and documented the search through photos of Richard Matt and David Sweat.

The Strand Center for the Arts will be showcasing Battinelli’s new series of documentary photography called “The Escape” centered on the Dannemora prison break, which started Sept. 4 and lasts until Oct. 2 in the community gallery.

This exhibit examines the community members, significant locations and media presence surrounding the prison break shown in 32 enlarged photographs in order to give people a sense that they’re there.

“The larger the painting, the more you can

actually stuff into it,” said Christina Elliot, gallery and museum coordinator for SCA. “It really engulfs all of your vision and it becomes entirely what you see and you can really immerse yourself in that.”

The enlarged photos showcase a controversial event that not only affected the local community, but captured the attention of the entire nation.

“What I was seeing was not on the news,” Battinelli said. “To see the things that went on behind the scenes will stay with me forever.”

FOLLOWING ESCAPEES When Battinelli first heard about the search, he believed they would be caught right away.

After a few days, he thought they had escaped to Mexico. A week later, his intuition led him to believe they were still in the area.

Once he drew this conclusion, he jumped

in his car and immersed himself into search by integrating himself into the news organizations, following state troopers and venturing into the woods when Matt and Sweat were still on the loose.

He also tracked down the trailer Matt supposedly spent his last night in — an experience he described as exciting and nerve wracking.

“I wanted to capture people who lived outside the manhole and the prison and the chaos of the news,” Battinelli said. “I was gathering a sense of what these inmates were going through and what the law enforcement was going through.”

The two things Battinelli tried to capture, which he hopes to capture in the future, are portraits of Lyle Mitchell, the husband of Joyce Mitchell, and Sergeant Jay Cook, the officer who shot Sweat.

Otis Mountain Get Down brings heavyhitters to E’town 30+ bands to perform at outdoor festival

By Pete DeMola

youremail@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Zach Allott had a vision: Bring people to the foothills of the High Peaks — lots of them — and ply them with good tunes.

The rest should take care of itself.

Because why not?

Allott and about a dozen Burlington buddies had background in the music business. They were young, ambitious and had the right blend of industry connections and do-ityourself ethic.

While music festivals are common in neighboring Vermont, life across the lake has traditionally been more placid, where most towns roll the sidewalks up at night.

Three years later, the Otis Mountain Get Down has become a success story, with festivalgoers coming from across the northeast to kick back for a late-summer weekend in this sedate Adirondack community.

“When it first started, we didn’t really know what we were onto,” said Allott. “It happened organically.”

They already had the venue, a stretch of land owned by Allott’s dad, Jeff. While the elder Allott also toyed with festivals for a seven-year stretch, they were smaller affairs, mostly bluegrass outfits performing for locals.

Minerva honors fallen officer, memorial highway unveiled

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@suncommunitynews.com

MINERVA — The Town of Minerva saw an afternoon of solemn remembrance on Sunday, Aug. 30, as dozens of community members flocked to Minerva Park to attend a ceremony commemorating the life and service of fallen Essex County police officer Eric Loiselle, at which the newly renamed “Sergeant Eric P. Loiselle Memorial Highway” was unveiled in his honor.

Loiselle, a Minerva resident, was struck and killed by a tractor trailer while conducting a routine traffic stop on I-87 in the town of Moriah on Aug. 17, 2005. He was 31 years old.

To commemorate the tenth anniversary of Loiselle’s untimely passing, the town of Minerva hosted a fallen officer ceremony at the park attended Loiselle’s family and friends, Minerva first responders, the Patriot Riders, members of American Legion and Patriot Guard, the Plattsburgh Police Pipe and Drum Corp and a number of honored guests including representatives from area police departments and elected officials.

Following an invocation led by Pastor Chad Haneman and a rendition of the National Anthem by Bailey Margaret Williams, Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting gave the opening remarks.

“Ten years ago marked one of the darkest times in my tenure at the Sheriff ’s Office,” Cutting told the crowd.

He went on to explain that Loiselle, a deputy sheriff and an Air Force veteran, was one of 20,000 American police officers to die in the performance of duty since the first recorded death in 1791.

“Eric was one of those rare police officers who could make an arrest, who could write a ticket, or handle a nasty civil matter, and at the end, was usually thanked by the people he dealt with,” Cutting continued. “He was always a respected professional.”

Sen. Betty Little and Assemblyman Dan Stec were the special guest speakers at the ceremony.

Sen. Little applauded the “tremendous love and respect” present at the ceremony, continuing that the highway dedication would benefit not only Loiselle’s son and widower, but also the future generations of his family “to be able to remember who Sergeant Eric Loiselle was and what he stood for.”

“Ten years doesn’t really wipe away an awful lot of sadness,” Little continued. “It says so much about the community when ten years later you gather to actually celebrate his life and the meaning of his life despite the bitter-sweet sadness you once again experience, as you did on that tragic day ten years ago.”

Assemblyman Stec said law enforcement officers and their role in society are often taken for granted, suggesting that it is important to occasionally pause as a community and take a moment to reflect on the inherent difficulties of police work.

“In the world today, as we watch the news, there’s always going to be someone who is critical of our law enforcement people,” Stec said. “But then you come to something like this on a day like today and you look around and you see such tremendous turnout from the community, and it’s got to uplift you and make you realize that the silent majority is out there;

they are appreciative of what law enforcement officers do to protect us and serve us. It makes me feel good to live in the North Country.”

At the foot of the pavilion stood a small round table accompanied by an empty chair draped in the American flag.

On the table were a number of symbolic items, each of them significant to the ceremony: a white table cloth, an upsidedown wine glass, a single white candle, a blue ribbon, a single red rose, a lemon wedge, a salt shaker, a bible and a faded picture of Loiselle.

Loiselle’s wife and son Natalie and Derrick were escorted to the table by Undersheriff Michael Badger, where they lit the candle, which Cutting said was meant “to symbolize the upward reach of [Loiselle’s] unequalled spirit.”

The ceremony culminated with a moment of silence in Loiselle’s memory, broken by a fourgun rifle salute and the sounds of “Taps” and “Amazing Grace.”

With that, the sign for the Sergeant Eric P. Loiselle Memorial Highway was unveiled, ensuring that from that day forward the Minerva community never forget the life and legacy of one of their own.

The memorial highway, a section of County Rte. 29, stretches through the town of Minerva until it meets County Line Rte. 28. The resolution for the renaming, offered by Minerva Town Supervisor Stephen McNally, was adopted unanimously by the Essex County board of supervisors at their July 6 regular board meeting.

the current generation of outdoor sportswomen has largely been accepted as equals in the woods and on the waters.

Fall turkey season abbreviated The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation recently adopted new regulations that will shorten the annual fall turkey hunting seasons across the state. The new fall seasons will be limited to only two weeks in duration, with a statewide season bag limit of one bird of either sex.

Season dates vary regionally with the season in the Northern Zone running from Oct. 1-14, and the Southern Zone running Oct. 17-30, 2015. According to DEC, “Declining wild turkey populations across the state make it necessary to shorten the hunting season. It is important to responsibly manage New York’s wild turkey populations to ensure that future generations of hunters will have the opportunity to go afield.”

In recent years, prolonged winter weather patterns have adversely affected the turkey breeding season which occurs in the Spring across NY state.

outside. Boomers have also been responsible for breaking down the gender gap in such traditional outdoor recreational pursuits as hunting and fishing. Often this has been a direct result of ‘taking the kids to camp’ during the hunting and fishing seasons.

In fact, the most recent survey conducted by the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association indicates that over 47 percent of newcomers to the sport of fishing are women.

It should come as no surprise, as there has been a comparable increase in the percentage of female participation in hunting activities and shooting sports.

Companies like SHE Outdoor Apparel, Cabella’s, and Próis are outfitting outdoor women with clothing and accessories that were created for the female body.

Archery manufacturers such as Mathews Inc. are designing lighter bows with shorter draw lengths, and Orvis now stocks waders and fly vests that are developed specifically for women.

“Across the board, women are more independent than they’ve ever been, and they realize they are capable of hunting,” explained Brenda Valentine, a national spokesperson for the National Wild Turkey Federation and selfproclaimed “First Lady of Hunting.” While some women may still be intimidated by the notion of participating in The New York State DEC recently adopted new regulations that will shorten the annual fall turkey hunting certain consumptive outdoor seasons across the state. activities, such as trapping,

ven though about half of the nation’s population has regularly participated in at least one outdoor activity over the past year, one out of every three kids in the country remain overweight. As health officials continue to study the growing problems associated with overweight and under active youth; a recent study conducted for the National Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association (NSGA) reveals some interesting trends.

Of the 54 sports and activities tracked for the study, NSGA reported an increase in the number of participants in nearly half of them, with open water activities, wheel sports, shooting sports, indoor gaming, fitness activities, and outdoor activities accounting for the for the most significant increases.

Overall, the most significant declines occurred in personal contact sports, snow sports, team sports, and individual sports.

As usual, the single, most popular outdoor activity remains freshwater fishing with over 42.1 million active participants nationwide.

While the “Baby Boomer” Generation, may be the most physically active group in the nation’s history, it is gradually becoming the Geritol Generation. However, the vast majority of Boomers are still getting outdoors, and in significant numbers where they continue to hike, ski, bike, swim and fish. They were a generation that grew up with dirt under their fingernails and grass stains on their clothes, and it appears they’re not ready to give it up yet.

In fact, the Boomers have been largely responsible for leading the effort to get members of subsequent generations
