TRAINING DAY

TICONDEROGA

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

TICONDEROGA — A group of anonymous residents in Ticonderoga have banded together funds to help authorities find the person or persons who were behind the September fire at St. Mary’s School.

According to a release given to media outlets, a group of concerned citizens from Ticonderoga are offering a $2,500 reward for information resulting in the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the fire at the Catholic School on the evening of Sept. 5.

Ticonderoga Police Department Chief Mark Johns said he was aware of the reward being offered.

“We know that there is a public concern and they want to help assist in the ongoing police investigation,” Johns said.

The release asks those who have information to contact the police department at 585-3204.

“Any information should come directly to law enforcement and not be filtered through any other people or organizations,” Johns said.

The chief said the investigation is continuing and now involves joint partnerships on the state and federal level.

“This is still a joint investigation and we have also brought in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF ) as there may be a potential violation of federal crimes.”

Ti High students take advantage of Work Experience Program EDITORS NOTE: Ryan Price is an intern for the Times of Ti through the Work Experience Program.

By Ryan Price

denpubs@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga High School students have been taking advantage of internships and job experience opportunities throughout the community.

The Ticonderoga High School Work Experience Program is run by Work Experience Program Coordinatior and teacher Kim Powers.

“The Work Experience Program is divided into two components,” said Pow-

ers. “There is a credit bearing program called the Career Exploration Internship Program and a Community Based Work Program which was implaced for students with disabilities to ensure job placement after high school.”

Powers normally requires students who enroll in the Career Exploration Internship Program to be a junior or senior, in good academic standing and exert a large amount of maturity.

The experience not only gives students a view into a career or job but also helps students by building a resume. Several students have been able to use their job supervisors as references.

“I did it to get firsthand experience at my desired profession so I could increase my knowledge of that profession and decide whether or not I wanted to continue it,” said Ti High senior Dale Quesnel.

Quesnel, a past participant in the program, was an intern at Moses Ludington Hospital’s Emergency Service Room where he was able to obtain a summer job.

Although stricter gradua-

tion requirments have limted the number of students who can participate in the program, the Work Experience Program is the perfect way for students to get hands on experience in the career and job field.

The program allows for students to direct their lives so they know what they want to do after high school. Being able to experience their desired job or career field allows for students to prepare themselves for real adult life.

Some of the local businesses and organizations that students have done internships and job experience programs at include: Moses Ludington Hospital, Ticonderoga School District, Times of Ti, The Hot Biscuit Diner, St. Joseph’s Treatment Center, ACAP Headstart, Fort Ticonderoga, Heritage Commons Nursing Home, McDonalds and the Town of Ticonderoga.

Ticonderoga students Troy Holmberg (top) and Marissa Thompson have been interning at Adirondack Beef and Inter-Lakes Health, respectively.

Annual Ticonderoga CROP Walk set to take place Oct. 18

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — For the 13th year, locals will have the chance to walk against hunger in Ticonderoga.

The annual CROP Walk will be held outside the Ticonderoga Heritage Museum Saturday, Oct. 18, at 1 p.m., to benefit initiatives to feed the hungry both internationally and locally.

“Twenty-five percent of funds raised goes to the food pantries of Hague, Ticonderoga and Crown Point,” said Sue Johnson, who co-chairs the event with her husband, Bob. “This is part of Church World Services and there are almost 1,500 CROP Walks held in the months of May and October.”

Along with helping local pantries, the funds raised go toward helping those who are in times of disaster, which can be through-

out the world or in the local neighborhoods.

“When we had the hurricanes in our area, they were sending things to us within a couple of days,” Johnson said.

The CROP Walk will feature treks of one, two and four miles.

There will also be a car for those who cannot walk but still want to participate in the event.

So far, over $1,100 has been donated through the Ticonderoga CROP Walk website (hunger.cwsglobal.org/site/TR?fr_ id=19292&pg=entry).

For more information, visit the Ticonderoga CROP Walk website or call Johnson at 543-6127.

New services sign placed south of monument through Ti-Montcalm Street Partnership

TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership (TMSP) and the TMSP Design Committee are pleased to announce the implementation of Services Sign on Route 9N just south of Liberty Monument.

This project was made possible by a cooperative effort involving the dedicated Design Committee members, TMSP Board, Kiwanis Club of Ticonderoga, PRIDE of Ticonderoga, Inter-Lakes Health, and the Town of Ticonderoga. The project which was coordinated by the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership and Pride of Ticonderoga and was financially made possible through the Kiwanis Club of Ticonderoga major emphasis program.

“The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership and its Design Committee are so pleased we could be instrumental in coordinating the new services sign south of Liberty Monument,” TMSP board member and design committee chair Joyce Cooper said. “The sign is intended to assist visitors when entering town. Our purpose is to provide them with the information on where services are located.”

There is a tentative plan to partner with the Carillon Garden Club to improve the raised garden bed below the sign. The garden would be in

honor of Joyce Mouradian who was responsible for the welcome sign that was there and who also first proposed a services sign in that area.

The Design Committee meets regularly to work on projects, outline additional projects including Streetscape improvements. TMSP and all of their committees work closely with the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, PRIDE of Ticonderoga, and the Town of Ticonderoga, as well as other area organizations on particular projects. The TMSP and the Design Committee have accomplished a number of major goals including the services sign, lights on the monument, improved signage, flag poles and planter boxes at the Fort Ticonderoga intersection, flower boxes on the bridge near The Country Florist & Gifts, as well as the

lighting of the LaChute Falls in Bicentennial Park. All of these projects were to improve the downtown corridor in Ticonderoga.

For more information on the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership including projects or events, please contact the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce (TMSP Coordinator) at 585-6619, chamberinfo@ticonderogany.com or stop by their office at 94 Montcalm Street in Ticonderoga.

Black Watch hosts Halloween Programs

By Ryan Price

denpubs@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Black Watch Memorial Library will be holding a Children’s Halloween Program as well as a pumpkin poster decorating contest for children of all ages.

Children interested in the pumpkin poster contest may pick up their poster at the library and all posters must returned to the library no later than Oct. 29. Prizes will be awarded for several categories.

The library will also be hosting a Children’s Halloween Program on Thursday, Oct. 30, at 3:30 p.m. for children of all ages. The program will include stories, a Halloween related craft and a snack. Costumes are optional for the program and poster contest winners will be announced.

“We try to focus our children programs on holidays,” said library employee Meg Michalak, “We try to give the kids a deeper understanding of what the holiday is and an overall background of

the holiday.”

By holding children programs, the library hopes to help kids in need by raffling off school supplies around the start of the school year while also creating a positive play environment for children.

“The programs are right after school letting kids fall into healthy and safe activities,” said Michalak, “Being at the library keeps kids out of the streets and gives them something to do.”

The Children Programs are completely free and provide an ideal setting for children to interact with each other and form new friendships, Michalak said. Kids of all ages are able to build new friendships through group activities and gain general knowledge about a specific holiday or school.

The library programs help to advance kids, giving them social skills and an interest in reading.

The library will also be holding Tai Chi classes on Wednesday afternoons at 1 p.m. and will be hosting the Methodist Church reading group while the church is being used for St. Mary’s School. Sessions for the Tai Chi class are $10 each with the first session being free.

Cuomo needs to step to the plate and debate

G

ov. Andrew Cuomo has done a lot for the North Country to boost our sagging economic fortunes, like promoting tourism, hammering out a moderate agreement on the Essex Chain Lakes, pouring cash into infrastructure development and rolling back restrictions on craft breweries, a measure that further uncorks the bottled-up entrepreneurial spirit of our fellow New Yorkers.

But he’s done a lot of unpalatable stuff, too, mostly when it comes to the SAFE Act and the property tax freeze, a shell game that has left rural governments in the lurch.

He’s up for re-election on Nov. 4. But you were probably only vaguely aware of that because he’s coasted through election season without debating his opponents, the most visible platform to discuss the issues.

First he pacified the Working Families Party by whispering sweet nothings at them, promising to bring the state Senate back under Democratic control. After they rolled over, Zephyr Teachout emerged from the ashes.

She was ignored until the last days of the Democratic primary campaign, when Cuomo begrudgingly rallied his troops and made a few campaign stumps, including at the Labor Day Parade in New York, where he ignored Teachout when she tried to shake his hand.

Despite skipping the North County on her barnstorm tour across the state, Teachout won every county in the North Country except for Franklin, taking 30 percent of the Democratic vote while spending one-fortieth as much for the votes as Cuomo did.

And then there’s Rob Astorino, his Republican challenger, the Westchester County Executive who formed an unlikely alliance with Teachout during the primary by debating the issues.

He, too, is being snubbed by Cuomo.

When asked last month about debates, Cuomo said they can be a “disservice to democracy.”

We think that line of thinking is a disservice to democracy.

Astorino is a likeable guy with some bright ideas, like loosening the state’s crippling regulatory efforts, reforming New York’s bloated Medicaid and pension system and increasing funding for vocational programs in high schools to shore up rural economies.

Too bad the public won’t get a chance to hear him out.

After ignoring Astorino’s call for eight debates across the state — the issues facing each region are myriad, he argued, and each needs

an in-depth discussion to address their needs — Cuomo finally capitulated.

Last week, the Cuomo campaign agreed to one televised debate in Buffalo with Astorino, Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate, and Libertarian candidate Michael McDermott.

But Cuomo will not debate Astorino one-onone in a televised debate, only radio. Cuomo has refused all offers to engage Astorino using the most accessible medium for voters.

This is problematic for a number of reasons, namely because the compressed formats will lend themselves to little aside from cheap shots, platitudes and talking points.

In other words, nothing that will significantly jeopardize the air of invincibility surrounding King Cuomo’s second coronation.

We understand that from a strategic level, Cuomo is just being shrewd. With a commanding 25 point lead, a gap that shrinks to nine percent in the North Country, Cuomo has little to gain from putting himself out there, especially considering he’s under federal investigation for his role in disbanding the anti-corruption Moreland Commission.

But voters — and we can’t believe this actually needs to be said — have the right to expect to hear from the candidates and learn more about the issues so that they can make the most welleducated decision when they go to the polls.

In fact, according to a recent Marist poll, while half of registered voters have already decided on their pick, 45 percent think a debate would help them make up their minds, while 78 percent think all of the candidates on the ballot should be included in the debates, not just Cuomo and Astorino.

Having just one televised debate in a state where the stakes are so high isn’t enough.

If Cuomo can find time to go to Israel and Afghanistan on the taxpayer’s dime to promote democratic ideals, then he can certainly do the same right here in his backyard.

Since he’s running on his accomplishments — balancing the state’s unruly budget that has kept spending increases down and a series of economic proposals that have revitalized small industries — he should have no trouble making the case for another four years.

Eight debates is too many, but voters in the North Country, those who perhaps are crippled the most by some of his most controversial policies, deserve better. ÑD

Letters to the Editor

Bottle the festival excitement

Praise for coach

To the Times of Ti: I am writing this in the afterglow of the 18th Adirondack Distance Festival and my first experience with this amazing Schroon Lake institution. As a life-long trial lawyer I have always been “somewhere else” and not in our town for this amazing event. This year I dropped right into the middle of it as the Director of Public Safety.

“The Marathon” was an amazing collection of moving parts.

Three towns (Chester, Schroon, Horicon), two counties (Warren and Essex), four police groups (Essex and Warren Sheriffs, State Police Troops B and G) and eight ambulance companies (from E-town south to Bolton Landing) all worked together like a well-oiled machine. Cheerleaders came from multiple schools. Hundreds of volunteers went where they were supposed to and did their jobs. Spectators stood with water, cowbells and horns along the roads. Roads were closed from 9 a.m. to nearly 3 p.m. without incident. AND EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME! Kudos, of course, to Joel Friedman and his Team- an amazing group of people which I had the honor of joining this year.

But the biggest CONGRATS goes to the people of the Schroon Lake Area! They were clearly enthused and caught up in the community spirit. They were joyful and cooperative and helpful to the thousands of guests and each other.

The Marathon Weekend clearly showed that Schroon Lake’s whole is greater than the sum of its parts. A large number of groups participated- Friends of the Library, the Lions, various churches, Word of Life, fire departments and ambulance squads, Schroon Lake Association, ESSLA, the Historical Society, municipal employees and many others. Everyone had one purpose- to make it the best day possible for the Town and its guests. And by the way, those guests had a great time. The Marathon has received a lot of positive feedback from runners and their families. They will be back. Last year a Kent State University study showed the Marathon brought $1,000,000 into our area economy. But money cannot match the joy of simply being here and being a part of this event.

The jewel in the crown of this wonderful blue skied weekend was our beautiful lake. Much of the race was along its crystal clear waters. The runners and their fans got to see how spectacular this place is and how blessed we are to be here. It made all the meetings, boat launch stewardship and political action to preserve our watershed worthwhile.

So let us all make a pledge to bottle the wonderful cooperative spirit we saw this weekend and let it out in small doses over the year. In the midst of freezing, gray weather and difficult policy and financial problems, let us open a bottle of September 28th sunshine and relive the cooperative spirit that made for such a great day.

Enjoy the Fall!

Mark Granger President, Schroon Lake Association

United Way needs you To the Times of Ti: The need for the services that United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps support has never been greater.

Employment, construction and tourism are down yet gas, food and utility costs are rising. Demands on public agencies, food pantries, utility funds, and free clinics are much higher than last year and from people who have never requested assistance before. State funding to public and private agencies has been slashed, at the same time that requests for assistance are increasing. United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps fill that gap. The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. has been a part of this community for over sixty years. Our main role is providing financial support to local health and human service programs to 41 partner agencies. We do not just provide a blank check to these agencies; we fund specific programs with measurable outcome objectives ensuring the funds invested on your behalf are making the greatest impact on community needs. I realize that many are facing financial pressures in their own families.

But, I hope people would give as generously as they can. I’m sure they know someone who has been helped by one of the United Way partner agencies, a neighbor, co-worker, student, and quite likely their own family.

The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. needs your

help this year. If you work for one of the 170 businesses that allow you to donate through payroll deduction, that is the easiest way. If your employer doesn’t offer a workplace campaign, please ask if they will start one. If you’ve received a letter from the United Way please reply. Even a small amount can make a big difference in the lives of others in need in our community.

Please support our local United Way. Kathy Snow Director of Development United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc.

People who need Obamacare To the Times of Ti: I have two relatives whose medical conditions would make them totally uninsurable without the Affordable Care Act (aka, Obamacare). Yet some politicians still advocate repeal. Why?!

Your article last week about Aaron Woolf and Elise Stefanik didn’t mention her current position on health care, but past articles cited that she favors repeal. Her publicity says that she stands for new ideas and new leadership, but there is nothing new or leader-like in that position. If she and her potential colleagues in Congress succeed, they must know they would be condemning a lot of people like my two relatives to death, because that’s what would happen without the health care that nearly eight million Americans now have thanks to the ACA, which makes it illegal to deny insurance and care to folks with pre-existing conditions, etc.

Winston him every day. Winston has also made some doggie friends here at the shelter and would make a great companion for the right pup.

Winston is just a year and a half old so there is plenty of time for this big pup to learn how to become a perfect gentleman. With some time, patience, and training this goofy fellow could very well be your next best friend.

Wide eyed pheasant hunters I

t was a beautiful fall morning and the fall colors were everywhere. Reds, yellows browns, and of course safety orange, which showed up brightly on a few dew covered fields in Willsboro.

Twelve young men and women gathered to learn Conservation gun safety, how to hunt pheasants, dog handling techniques and pheasant

By Rich Redman habitat management.

Hunting birds in tall grass and brush demands safe gun handling, and these youth were taught well by the Willsboro Fish and Game Club members. A gun safety and shooting course, taught by the Fish and Game Club was mandatory before any student went to the field. Safety orange hats and vests were the attire and hue of the day for all participants.

Both cock and hen pheasants were released previously into fields off the Middle Road. The 12 young guns were each teamed up with an adult, and then formed into groups. A dog handler took each group out into the abandoned farm fields of Brome grass, Queen Anne’s lace, Dogwoods and other forbs and grasses where the birds were free to run, roam and fly at will.

Working into the wind, the dogs would crisscross the field searching for the scent. When a bird flushed, if all went well, a shot would bring it down. As youth, many stood amazed, in awe as the bird flew away. Wide eyed, followed by laughter and maybe some embarrassment. Hey, we all forget to pull the trigger or miss sometime! They came to learn and that they did. Justin Spoor of Ellenburgh was the first youth to take a cock bird that morning.

The youth pheasant hunting program is successful due to its generous sponsors, Gander Mountain, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Essex County Fish and Game League and of course the Willsboro Fish and Game Club. Both the hats and vests were donated to keep the young hunters safe.

Ron Macdougal, John Oliver and Dan Sweatt of the Willsboro Fish and Game along with Noel Scashio, Todd Bailey and Joe Pray, the dog handlers made this possible. The Pheasants were supplied by the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation which raises the birds and releases them throughout sites in New York. Funding for this program comes from specified tax money which hunters pay when purchasing guns, ammunition and license fees. Birds are released on State land and private lands that are open to all hunters.

The young guns involved in this year’s hunter safety and pheasant hunting program are, Savannah Brenson, Kira Crowningshield, Cody Ahrent, Sean Lincoln, and Jonny Schier of Willsboro, Tyler Stevens of Wilmington, Josh Clark of Chazy, Garrett Pray from Keeseville, Logan and Edward Brown of Ausable, Cole Glebus of Port Henry, and Justin Spoor of Ellenburgh.

All these young men and women are learning gun safety, our fishing and hunting heritage and the conservation of the fields, forests and streams of our area.

Crown Point’s 1890 Water Main needs replacement. Pictured above is a valve that has sprung a leak. “The water is physically wearing out the copper to where it’s paper-thin,” said Water Superintendent Gary Allen. A public hearing will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 15 to discuss solutions.

Crown Point residents asked to fill out survey as part of water main project

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — The water main running through town is 125 years old. It’s leaky and broken in 30 different places.

Unpredictable pressure spikes have led to overworked valves, resulting in destructive torrents of water blasting through a pipe that is paper-thin in some places and wrapped in asbestos.

This system is going to blow. When it does, it’s going to leave a lot of locals out in the cold.

Literally.

But catastrophe from this simmering aquatic countdown to extinction can be averted.

This wheezing line serves 429 households in two water districts, roughly 25 percent of the town.

As authorities come closer to making a decision for moving forward with funding applications to remedy the problem, an income survey is key.

If each of the 429 households within the district accurately fills out a household income survey, then municipal authorities can meet the requirements to attract the proper grant package to fund the project.

To unlock funding, state and federal agencies require a demonstration that residents of the water district are within a certain bracket of water service charges.

Those charges are determined by income levels as reported to the US Census.

Crown Point and Essex County officials say the numbers in Crown Point are too low as a result of a skewed census surveys, a distortion that has freezed them out of the grant application process.

The town has some of the lowest water rates in the region.

If the formula is adjusted, residents will pay more per year in water changes, but the town has a chance to land the grants that will prevent a system meltdown.

The worst case scenario for doing nothing, said town officials, would be a permanent boil order and an inability to fight fires.

People will get sick and houses will burn down.

Crown Point has three options to fix the problem: The most basic option is replacement of the 1890 Water Main. The second is a replacement with source improvements, while the gold-plated deluxe option would also add improvements to the Pearl Street well.

Supervisor Charles Harrington said the income survey process will be confidential.

“No one from the town offices, no employee or elected official, will be seeing the results of the individual survey,” he said at a troubleshooting meeting last week. “We will see the combined analysis, which I’m sure will disprove the census figures.”

Essex County’s Industrial Development Agency will facilitate the process.

Co-Executive Director Jodi Olcott said it’s crucial for the users in both districts to return the forms.

Each funding source requires their own identical survey.

Apartment renters must complete their surveys, not the landlords. Employees of local businesses also need to participate even if they don’t live in the water district to help officials zero in on employment numbers.

Olcott said if it is determined that the project will have a significant economic impact on Main Street, additional funding

may be secured.

“It not difficult to send out, it’s difficult to get back,” she said.

Surveys will be sent out this week. After that, it’s a matter of knocking on doors for follow-ups.

“They have to understand that significance and believe in the importance of it.”

A similar undertaking Ticonderoga took almost a year.

“It was cumbersome, to say the least.”

Harrington stressed fine-tuned synchronicity between town, county and state officials and the news media.

Town employees may also be utilized if survey results are not forthcoming.

“We need to utilize every source of communication we can to assure the general public that this is in their best interest,” he said.

Essex County Director of Community Resources Mike Mascarenas said it was critical that the process be started soon.

“These things do take a long time.

We’re going to work and do the very best we can,” he said. “It takes buying in from the citizens to do that.”

February is D-Day. If the survey results aren’t in by then, officials will have to tiptoe around catastrophe for another year.

“The potential impact of someone not completing the survey will be tremendous,” said Mascarenas. “This affects your pocketbook daily for 30 years.”

If funding is approved, construction will likely start in 2016. Additional components will include permanently capping the defunct Pearl Street well and upgrading control systems and meters.

A public hearing will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 15 in the Crown Point Central School auditorium to discuss the project.

Crown Point technology students create shed for sale

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Students in the building trades class at Crown Point Central School are creating a shed which they will be selling to someone in the community.

The class, led by teacher John Lemieux, started planning and building the shed over the first weeks of the school year. It is a 10-by-12 foot shed with a six-foot door opening in the front.

The floor will be pressure treated and the shed was created with conventional framing.

“This is the first time we have done something like this,” Lemieux said. “The school gave us seed money to buy the materials and we will be selling it to the public.”

Lemieux said he wanted to give the students a chance to work on a project that gave them real-life skills when it came to creating something that could be used for a practical purpose.

“We are building this shed and will then disassemble it so it can be moved,” he said. “We will then take a field trip to the buyer’s home and rebuild it there. It gives them some real experience in carpentry.”

“I like to build things and this is a great chance for us to show off our skills,” sophomore Zach Russell said.

“I enjoy everything I am learning in this class,” junior James Duval said. “It is all pretty fun stuff and this is stuff I want to do.”

Other students in the class include Noel Duval, Adrian Fernandez, Spencer Russell and Tyler St. Pierre.

Lemieux said along with the help from the school, Pro Build in Ticonderoga gave the class a good deal on the materials needed to complete the wooden shed which he said is good for storage of ATV’s, snowmobiles, “or whatever you have.”

Anyone interested in purchasing the shed from the Crown Point Central School building trades class can contact the school at 597-4200.

Adrian Fernandez, teacher John Lemieux, James Duval, Spencer Russell, Noel Duval and Zach Russell work on the frame of the wood shed being created through the building trades class at Crown Point Central School. The class will be selling the shed.

Penfield Continued from page 1 The Penfield Homestead Museum will have one final event for the year, the annual Haunted Homestead, which will take place in the last weekend of October.

Appointments and research will still be available throughout the winter by calling 597-3804.

Located in the Crown Point hamlet of Ironville, the Penfield Museum is the former home of Allen Penfield and reflects the 19th Century when mining dominated the regional economy. It is also the birthplace of the electrical age.

The hamlet of Ironville, on the National Register of Historic Places, is listed as the “Birthplace of the Electric Age” since it is the site of the first industrial application of electricity in the United States in 1831. The electricity was provided by a simple battery known as a “wet battery,” which in turn was used to power one of Joseph Henry’s electromagnets. The electromagnet was used in Ironville to recharge the magnetic prongs on the magnetic ore separator, a machine used to remove the iron from the crushed ore.

The magnet also became a novelty and people would come from miles to see it’s strength. Thomas Davenport, of Brandon, Vt., was so fascinated with the magnet at Ironville that he purchased it from Allen Penfield at a cost of $75. With the experimentation that Davenport did on that magnet, it lead to his invention of the electric motor in the mid 1830s.

Central to the museum is an exact replica of a large electromagnet now in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. Penfield moved his family to Crown Point in 1828 to make his fortune in the mining industry. The home he build was occupied by three generations before becoming a museum which houses a collection of 19th Century artifacts memorabilia.

Crown Point iron was an indispensable product for the North in the Civil, War. Iron from Crown Point was used to construct the battleship Monitor.

The museum contains samples of iron ore mined by Penfield along with pictures of the mines in operation.Rooms in the museum are furnished with original pieces once belonging to the Penfields. Other historic furniture is also on display.

Ironville was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. The homes along the main street were all constructed in the early 19th Century.

Those buildings, besides the museum, include the Harwood House, a church, a parsonage, a boarding house and homes and barns that have been in use for 150 years and longer.

There are 10 stations along a self-guided tour. Year-round historical and recreational trails wander across the 500 acres of the homestead. The trails have also joined the Champlain Area Trails (CATS) system.

Spencer and Zach Russell work on building the frame to the shed the building trades class in building at Crown Point Central School.

Schroon Lake Labor Day events a success Mountainside to host SCHROON — That was the buzz from those attending the day long events on Aug. 30, the Saturday of Labor Day Weekend in Schroon Lake.

From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m, the extremely popular and well attended Garage Sale in the Park on the lawn above the Town Beach sponsored by the Senior Citizen’s Club brought in a large number of vendors and hundreds of bargain hunters!

It appears that many people stayed in town after the garage sale and visited local businesses and also enjoyed music on Main Street at the Strand by local band Beyond Driven.

The annual Street Dance and Fireworks sponsored by the Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce and the Town of Schroon started at 7 p.m. on Dock Street by the Town Beach. The Master Cylinders rocked the street playing favorites that were enjoyed by over 1,000 revelers while many others sat on the natural amphitheater above the beach waiting for fireworks. Many exclaimed that is was simply awesome dancing in the street overlooking gorgeous Schroon Lake. At 9:30 p.m. all were treated to a spectacular Alonzo Fireworks display over the Lake!

Due to lack of budgeted funds for the fireworks, generous Schroon Lakers stepped up to the plate and met the Schroon Lake challenge to raise money for fireworks. Stewart’s Shops started things off with a most generous $1,000 donation and the following residents should be not-

SCHROON — The Mountainside Garage Sale, located off exit 27 in Schroon Lake, is getting a much-needed face-lift.

Situated in the Ministries Center of Mountainside Bible Chapel, the garage sale exists solely from the generous time of volunteers and charitable donations from those willing to give.

The Garage Sale will be open Oct. 11 and Oct. 18 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Winter hours are by appointment only. If you’d like to donate or purchase an item, appointments are available by calling Dee Holland at 832-0686.

“Shelves are being built to help organize the large area and we are doing away with all tables, unless we are selling them,” said Holland, whose continual efforts to improve and run the sale are worth noting. “The addition of these shelves are vital in making more room to walk around and see what’s available.”

Mountainside’s Garage Sale carries furniture, household items, baby necessities, workout equipment, books, games, seasonal décor and much more. The donated items are then sold for a reasonable price. All proceeds go toward supporting Mountainside Bible Chapel and also Mountainside Christian Academy, which are located there.

“Because of the money we make, we are able to offer free tuition for all students in the Pre-K and Kindergarten classes, with teacher ’s salaries being compensated by the sales we make there,” said Holland.

The bounty from this ministry continues to reach out to those truly needing help. Whether it’s someone diagnosed with cancer and needing a hospital bed, a family burned out of their home and needing supplies or the recent fire at St. Mary’s school, the garage sale gives back where it’s needed.

“Without the help of a few key volunteers and donations from many others, this ministry would not be possible,” Holland said. “I am blessed to have a part in it.”

Cash Back Redemption Center opens in Schroon

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com SCHROON — There is a new place here for people to return their recyclable bottles and cans.

Cash Back Redemption has been open since July at its 17 Marina Road location, run by Kevin O’Neil.

“I had a long time business that did not get by the recession, and I wanted to start a new business that would not go under and I thought there was no better model than doing something where you are giving money back to people,” O’Neil said. “There are people that have never been here or have never gone to a redemption center and I just ask them to come in, say hello and give it a try.”

Cash Back Redemption accepts all bottles, cans, aluminums and plastic that have the New York State recyclable refund notation on them. O’Neil said cans and bottles can either come in pre-counted or he can sort and count the recyclables for them.

“We do ask that glass bottles need to come in a box,” O’Neil said. “We sort everything here by distributor, size and type of substance. Then the distributors come in and pick their recyclables up.”

O’Neil has offered tips to new customers, which include: •Containers should be fairly clean, empty of fluids and free of garbage. Cans and plastic should be in separate, clear plastic bags.

•Leave caps off, as distributors require all caps to be removed.

•While O’Neil will count recyclable for customers, those who pre-count will be waited on first.

•Glass containers must be returned in beer boxes. Customers may use the original boxes or boxes which can be provided by Cash Back. Glass brought in plastic bags must be removed by the customer.

Cash Back Redemption is open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.

For more information, contact O’Neil at 2327197.

Four developments happened in the oil transport biz last month... ...Here’s what you need to know

through pretty much overnight if that project gets approved.

He said the DEC erred in greenlighting the project.

“There’s no trigger for the state to slow down expansion if they intend to do it,” said Sheehan.

“It only takes one accident for a real catastrophe.”

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ALBANY — Like the oil trains rattling through the Champlain Valley, tanker-related news flowed at a steady drip last week, from developments at the federal level down to what villages like Port Henry are doing to bolster their emergency planning in the event of an incident.

State inspections

Port Henry Drill

Canadian Pacific (CP), the railway company responsible for shipping crude oil through the region, held a training with four local emergency response teams on Wednesday, Sept. 24 in Port Henry.

The railway dispatched Hazardous Materials and Emergency Response Officer Mike Ball from South Dakota to facilitate the night training, which included a mock exercise with a DOT-111 tanker.

Ball said responders were given a crash course on how the cars function and foam application techniques.

“We were instructed on the shut-offs and braking systems,” said Essex County Emergency Services Director Donald Jaquish. “We’re actively training and working in conjunction with CP, emergency responders, fire departments and Hazmat.”

Following the exercise, Brill and his colleague, Scott Croome, headed to Saratoga Springs for further trainings and a sit-down with DEC officials.

“This training is absolutely critical,” said Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava.

Scozzafava said Port Henry Fire Chief Jim Hughes is also working with first responders across the lake to as part of an emergency evacuation plan.

He said while CP is going above and beyond to ensure safety, including millions spent on track repairs, he called for a reduction of car lengths. Doing so, he said, would allow trains to slow down as they pass through intersections.

“Time is everything in the rail business,” said Scozzafava. “The bottom line is oil has to get wherever it’s going and that won’t change in the future.”

CP’s presence has become increasingly visible in Essex County since March when company officials were met with withering attacks at a special Board of Supervisors meeting called to address the increase in rail traffic.

Mid-Atlantic conference

On Sept. 25, the Adirondack Council’s John Sheehan addressed a gathering of water quality advocates and professionals at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Water Conference in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.

Sheehan reported rigorous discussion with government officials and conservationists, including the root cause of why trains are running through the North Country in the first place, namely due to a lack of pipeline infrastructure.

In addition, last year’s Lac-Mégantic incident

crippled pre-existing infrastructure and forced tankers to use alternative routes.

The Adirondack Council, said Sheehan, is calling for an immediate ban on the DOT-111s and a closer examination of tracks statewide with an emphasis on those that pass through environmentally-sensitive areas.

Sheehan said the Adirondack Council is also concerned about a potential increase in traffic from Canada’s tar sands region.

Buckeye Partners has just completed a new terminal in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. The state has granted the Houston-based a permit to handle billion gallons of the heavy crude annually.

The current volume is about 400,000 million, which means the terminal could more than double its production schedule without any input from the state.

Sheehan also expressed concern over the proposed expansion of the Global Partners facility in Albany to add a heating facility.

This would lead to a tripling of oil passing

In January, Governor Cuomo issued an Executive Order directing five state agencies to undertake a comprehensive review of safety procedures and emergency response.

On Sept. 24, inspection teams from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) carried out the latest round of track and crude oil tanker inspections at facilities in Buffalo and the CP-owned Kenwood Rail Yard in Albany, two of the main rail hubs for crude oil transport in the state.

According to a report issued by Cuomo’s office last week, inspectors found a split rail on the mainline from Buffalo to Syracuse, a critical defect. Speed has been reduced to 30 miles per hour pending the rail’s replacement. The inspectors also found 38 non-critical defects, including muddy ballast and loose bolts, which must be repaired within 30 days.

In Albany, inspectors examined 202 DOT-111 units and found 12 non-critical defects, including seven worn brake shoes, four defective wheels and one missing knuckle pin.

In Buffalo, 10 non-critical defects, including two worn brake shoes, a missing knuckle pin, three deflector shields with loose bolts and four damaged coupler tabs, were discovered.

The FRA inspected 145 DOT-111 crude oil tank cars for hazardous materials defects and found 11 non-critical defects, including 10 loose or missing placards and debris on one tank car platform.

Non-critical tank car defects must be fixed before the train departs the yard. If that is not possible, the affected car will be pulled from the train to await repair.

Saranac Lake sneaks past Moriah in rain-soaked contest

By Akashia Swinton

denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — The Saranac Lake Red Storm continued their undefeated streak this week. Although they were the favorite going into Saturday’s game, they squeaked by the Moriah Vikings for the win with a final score of 15 to 10.

The Red Storm gave up a safety in the final minutes of the game to prevent the Vikings from scoring and putting the game into overtime.

Saranac Lake shut down the Moriah passing game with quarterback Adam Jaquish only throwing 4-for12, but they were unable to stop the Vikings rushing duo of Collin Harris and Troy Welch.

Harris had 17 carries for 122 rushing yards, including a 58-yard carry for a touchdown that opened the second quarter. Welch had 20 carries for 88 yards rushing. Both players went down during Saturday’s game with injuries, but persisted and finished out the game.

During the PAT attempt in the 2nd quarter, there was a botched snap, but Adam Jaquish was able to recover and throw to Cody Stockwell for a 2 point conversion.

Saranac Lake’s key rusher was Dylan Kilner, who had 18 carries for 62 yards. They had multiple other targets that recorded both rushing and receiving yards. Jack Martin had 12 rushing yards and 15 receiving yards, Jason Stack had 8 rushing yards and 32 receiving and Ty Marmion had 15 rushing yards and 6 receiving yards, including a 2 point conversion in the 4th quarter.

Red Storm quarterback Tristin Fitzgerald completed 17 of 32 passes and had 21 yards rushing, including a first quarter touchdown.

The other Red Storm touchdown was scored by Alex Donaldson, who had 28 yards rushing and also recorded two tackles in Saturday’s game. Defensively for the Red Storm, Marmion had two interceptions and three tackles, Myckael Colon had five tackles and Drew Sturgeon had three.

Key defensive players for the Vikings include Kyle Stockwell with four tackles, while Noah Gilbo, Ryan Jaquish and Bill Larrow all had three tackles.

“Well coached, gritty, hard-nosed team,” is how Saranac Lake Coach Eric Bennett described the Moriah team after their win this week. “We were lucky to get out of here with the win.”

“We made plays when we had to, but we made way too many mistakes … to come out on top in a tough game, we’re fortunate, but we realize we’re lucky more than anything,” he added.

Coach Bennett looks to improve discipline on the defensive side of the ball to prepare for their next game against the Peru Indians on Saturday, Oct. 11.

Collin Harris of Moriah makes sure the ball does not end up in the hands of Saranac Lake’s Dylan Kilner during their Oct. 4 meeting.

Sentinels enter homecoming week after overtime heartbreaker vs. Eagles

By Barrie Finnegan

denpubs@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN — The Beekmantown Eagles hosted the Ticonderoga Sentinels on a wet day which provided exciting opportunities for both teams. The Eagles would come away with a 20-14 victory which required overtime to decide the winner.

Ti would come out strong with a 72-yard drive mainly on the running of Konner Bruce and Ryan Trudeau. Quarterback Garrison Hughes would score on a one yard keeper, the extra point was good and Ti led 7-0.

Beekmantown would then fumble in their own end zone where Kaleb Wiktorko would jump on the loose ball for a touchdown for the Sentinals. The kick was good again making it 14-0 at the end of the first quarter.

With 4:22 left in the half, Domanic Banish intercepted an Eagle pass which appeared to give the Sentinels good field position.

But an inadvertent whistle caused the play to be nullified and Beekmantown retained possession. Both defenses were playing well and the half concluded with the Ti holding the 14-0 lead.

With the Sentinels keying on Justin Stevens, Beekmantown tried to use Stevens as a decoy on many of the first half plays.

The second half would see that change as Stevens became the force that Eagle fans were accustomed to watching.

Ti quarterback Garrison Hughes was also the kick returner as well as the punt return man. Hughes had a 70-yard kickoff return called back by an illegal block in the back penalty. He also had a huge punt return called back for the same penalty.

The Eagle offense got on track with runs by Stevens moving

the ball to the Sentinal 5-yard line where QB Alex Archer scored on a 4-yard keeper. Archer paid the price for scoring, as Konner Bruce drilled him right at the goal line.

Once Archer could breath again, he walked off the field. The kick was blocked making the score 14-6 going into the fourth.

In the fourth quarter, the Sentinels drove the ball down to the Eagle 6-yard line after an interception by Marick Ross. The drive stalled there and Ti missed the field goal attempt.

The Eagles took over but failed to continue their drive and chose to punt with 5:42 left in the game. The Sentinel drive also stalled and the Eagles got the ball back with 3:18 left in the game.

After a 32-yard Stevens run down to the Sentinel 15, Archer took it to the 9-yard line on another keeper. On fourth-and-3 from the 6-yard line, Archer threw a touchdown pass to Matt Villa. The score was now 14-12 with the two-point conversion yet to come. An incomplete pass fell to the ground at the same time as the flag for illegal contact. The Eagles had new life. Justin Stevens was not to be denied from 1 1/2 yards out, tying the game at 14 with 1:33 left.

Beekmantown held Ti and forced a punt as time was running out. With time for one last play in regulation, The Eagles ran the hook and ladder to Stevens who went sprinting down the sideline until Konner Bruce made yet another big tackle.

The Sentinels would get the ball first in overtime. They failed to move and ended up missing a field goal attempt, wide right.

The Eagles got their chance and wouldn’t waste it.

Justin Stevens ran the ball for 15 yards, dragging tacklers along the way. Stevens again got the call, this time running over would-be tacklers for the game winner. The final score in a very exciting matchup was 20-14 Eagles.

RAY BROOK — Motorists should be alert for moose on roadways in the Adirondacks and surrounding areas at this time of year - a peak of moose activity - warns the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).

DEC advises motorists to take the following precautions to prevent moose vehicle collisions: •Use extreme caution when driving at dawn or dusk, especially during September and October; •Reduce your speed, stay alert, and watch the roadsides; •Slow down when approaching moose standing near the roadside, as they may bolt at the last minute when a car comes closer, often running into the road; •Moose may travel in pairs or small groups, so if a moose is spotted crossing the road, be alert for others that may follow; •Make sure all vehicle occupants wear seatbelts and children are properly restrained in child safety seats; •Use flashers or a headlight signal to warn other drivers when moose are spotted near the road; •Motorcyclists should be especially alert for moose; •If a moose does run in front of your vehicle, brake firmly but do not swerve.

Swerving can cause a vehicle-vehicle collision or cause the vehicle to hit a fixed object such as a tree or pole.
