Port Henry residents vote to dissolve village government

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

PORT HENRY — Residents here have changed their minds after voting against dissolution in 2010, voting 190-171 to continue down the road which would lead to the end of the municipality.

“I can’t say I am surprised,” trustee Matthew Brassard said.

“There was a good effort put out by people on both sides and I told people I thought it would be 20 votes either way. It turned out to be 19.

“The people have voted and I will do my best to make sure the village goes out in the best way it can,” Brassard added.

The trustee also talked about the next steps the village will take in partnership with the Town of Moriah.

“The first thing now is to pick an official date of dissolution and then to look at what the town wants,” said Brassard. “One of the biggest things for me is the employees - who they are going to want and where they are going to go.”

The village now has 180 days to develop a dissolution plan, which will then be brought before the community in a public hearing. Residents of the village could then petition for a referendum on the plan, but need a much higher percentage of registered voters to sign.

Throughout the day, the Port Henry Volunteer Fire Department was steady with a stream of voters seeking to cast their ballot on the issue.

“I watched all of the meetings on YouTube and did my own math and calculations knowing all the numbers,” David Koran said. “It was a close decision for me.”

Kim Gilbertson pointed more to the third party in making his decision.

“What I have told a lot of people is I feel the only people who will make out on this will be the LaBerge Group,” Gilbertson said about the firm hired to do the preliminary dissolution study, which was at the forefront of three public meetings held before the election.

“There was only one factor for me,” Robert Buglingame said. “That is I grew up in this village.” >> Story Continued | pg. 5

Schroon Lake students enter digital age Students in 7-12 study with Chrome Books

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

SCHROON — In the modern age of education, Schroon Lake Central Superintendent Stephen Gratto believes the best way to teach is through the technology youth are using.

That includes incorporating Chrome Books in the class-

rooms of students in grades 7-12.

“Kids today are digital natives,” Gratto said. “This is the way they do things now, and theses Chrome Books are allowing us to teach the way students like to learn. You have to approach education in this way or it will not be as effective.”

Gratto said the students are more engaged in their learning as the faculty has been able to design course lessons and assignments through the use of digital media. >> Story Continued | pg. 18

Ticonderoga town budget under state tax levy cap TICONDEROGA — Supervisor Bill Grinnell announced the 2016 budget will come in slightly under the State mandated tax cap of 0.73 percent.

This number may seem different to most people that think the cap is 2 percent. It is actually 2 percent or the rate of inflation (0.73 percent), whichever is less.

This twist has made this budget prepara-

tion particularly difficult for most towns this year, with many needing to pass resolutions to override the cap “Two percent is a difficult number to reach, 0.73 is nearly impossible,” said Grinnell. “Only the hard work of our committee chairs, deptartment heads and budget staff all together pulled this off. In todays’ economic world with low or no growth and increasing cost this was a great effort.”

The result of this is the cancellation of the scheduled Public Hearing on Oct. 27 that was planned to override the tax cap if necessary.

Dissolution << Continued from | p. 1

In March, 2010, residents of the village voted 186-146 to keep the village government going. The decision held until June 25 of this year, when residents submitted a petition again seeking the dissolution of the municipality.

Filers sought a way to react to the 2015 village budget, which included a 9.28 percent property tax hike. Officials cited rising operational costs associated with meetings the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs as a reason for tax rate hike.

For the fiscal year beginning May 1, the villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tax rate was an estimated $11.78 per $1,000 of taxable assessed value, up from an estimated $10.78 per $1,000 during the current year.

At a July 31 village board meeting to set dates for the vote and three public meetings, more than 50 residents attended the meeting, which at times became bogged down as those in attendance asked questions, at times interrupting village officials mid-sentence.

The village then held the series of public hearings at the Knights of Columbus Hall Aug. 18, Sept. 23 and Oct. 21. All were well attended and, at times, contentious.

The vote is the first regionally over dissolution since Keeseville residents voted to dissolve their village, which happened at the end of 2014. Around

Residents were given the chance to learn about the dissolution study through a trio of meetings held in the months prior to the Oct. 27 vote. While many at those meetings voiced concern over getting rid of village government, voters approved the referendum by a 190-171 vote.

the same time, Champlain residents voted in favor of keeping its village government intact.

After the meeting, Brassard went to social media, where he thanked those who voted either way and reiterating his stance to work for the best interest

of the town.

Brassard later agreed with some who expressed disappointment with the result, but said he would honor the result of the vote and work to make any transition as smooth as possible.

O

enemy is?

There are so many threats to life as it was once known in this country, that the above question begs to be asked.

While the threats from outside our nation look ominous, I fear we have seen the enemy and it is us.

Our internal pettiness has continued to grow and has become even more spiteful.

And while much of this spitefulness stems from political affiliation and special interest it now seems to flow over to everyday life and affects every level of society.

Here is just another example of failing to reach a simple consensus. After deciding at the end of the last school year to pull the Londonderry, New Hampshire High School out of the National School Lunch Program due to the great amount of food that was ending up in the trash, the school learned that new requirements would be placed upon them.

While the district’s elementary and middle schools remain in the program, which sets portion and nutrition guidelines for students, provides low cost staples and subsidizes meals of low-income pupils, it proved immensely unpopular at the high school level.

A problem arose when U.S. Department of Agriculture officials, and the state agency that shares oversight of the program, realized that nearly all of the district’s food is taken in, stored and is prepared at the high school.

That means food destined for the one middle and four elementary schools, which is subsidized by taxpayers, could be co-mingled with food that is not. It also means the high school – but not the other schools in the district – would forgo foods the USDA provides at low prices, including items like cheese, diced chicken and peaches.

To ensure that all the food was properly accounted for, the district could either build a separate facility for food preparation at the other schools or adopt the type of strict accounting system used at industrial food processing facilities.

The school superintendent said the district never intended to wade into the politics of the school lunch program, which has been championed by First Lady Michelle Obama. He is now left wondering if the bureaucratic push back is agenda-driven.

You would think something as simple as providing good choices for a healthy school lunch could be accomplished without a full blown war, but in today’s politically charge environment the goal isn’t obvious, even when both sides want the same thing.

Let your voice be heard: Go vote E

lection Day is on Tuesday.

As you drive past the campaign signs, skim through the newspaper articles and encounter politicians on the campaign trail, consider the following: What if your vote actually mattered?

What if casting your ballot wasn’t just a mindless exercise in civic duty?

What if your decision had a direct impact on your daily life?

It’s all true.

This year is an off-election year, which means none of your state and federal representatives are up for a performance review.

As such, voter turnout is usually low.

While participation rates tend to be higher when people feel as if they’ve got something at stake, New York’s turnout is frighteningly low even in the best of times.

Only one-third of the state’s eligible voters have participated in midterm elections since 2002.

Last year’s election saw the worst voter turnout in 72 years. With just 29 percent of eligible voters casting ballots, the Empire State ranked second-last in the country.

Even at the national level, the numbers are in freefall.

Yikes.

Despite the misnomer, the stakes really are high during these off-year elections.

Nearly every town official across the North Country is up for re-election next week — Town supervisors, board members, justices, highway superintendents, clerks, assessors and tax collectors — All of them are subject to your approval.

But despite most residents viewing democracy as an indelible human right, many don’t appear to realize what this belief actually means.

Voting is not an exercise in futility.

Despite the big ticket discussions that characterize political discourse in our country — immigration reform, trade agreements, nuclear deals and all sorts of cultural issues — for most of us who live modest and ordinary lives, it is the decisions made at the local level that pack the most punch, both when it comes to crafting meaningful policy and ensuring a positive balance in your checkbook.

Local officials provide most of the services that constitute your daily interaction with government: They assess your property, set your tax rates, issue building permits, repair infrastructure and implement social programs.

Your local leaders also act as conduits to the state and federal representatives who control the purse strings.

Most of the money that trickles back to local communities is because officials know how to tap into the piggy bank.

This rainmaking is a skill.

All politics is local.

And who sits at the table is entirely up to you.

Your vote counts.

Perhaps just as important as your vote is the effect that your attitude has on other people.

While enthusiasm is contagious, so is apathy.

We’ve seen firsthand the effect that even small discussions at home or the workplace have to either motivate or discourage others from exercising their civic duties.

Say, for example, you stay home on Election Day because you feel as if your candidate will pull out an easy victory.

Or it’s too cold.

Or they’re all bums, anyway, so why bother.

That influence can spread like a contagion and influence outcomes.

In these small North Country communities, we can recall a handful of recent races within the past half-decade that have hinged upon single-vote margins.

It all bears mentioning that those who don’t vote regularly — namely the young, the poor and those with lower levels of education — have different needs and visions for their community than their more engaged counterparts, including the elderly and the affluent.

The absence of these voices has implications simply because elected officials tend not to value the opinions of those who don’t bother to show up.

For many, apathy is their stock and trade.

So what’s it going to be?

Participating in these local elections isn’t just about selecting the best candidate for the job, nor should it be a popularity contest, but is rather playing a direct role in your own destiny.

The choice between going forward or getting stuck in neutral is all yours.

We understand this isn’t exactly a crowded field. Even if your local official isn’t facing any competition this year, we still encourage you to come have a seat at the table, if only to cast a vote of non-confidence.

We can’t help but draw a parallel to the lottery and scratch-off tickets.

It seems like whenever we stop at a local shop, we find ourselves in line behind people playing the lottery.

They’re not buying one scratch-off ticket or even five — they’re buying reams of them, forking out fistfuls of cash at a time.

But unlike rolling the dice, with voting, the odds of striking it big really are within reach.

We hope to see you on Tuesday.

GUEST VIEWPOINT

Democratic presidential debate showed strong performances AARON WOOLF

> Former

congressional candidate in

NY’s 21st District aawoolf@me.com

T

he first Democratic presidential debate provided some notable revelations. Hilary Clinton’s unexpectedly strong performance was celebrated not only for its competence but for its humanity as well and even the opposition remarked on the overall air of civility and the substantive exchanges that defined the evening.

But perhaps most remarkable was the energetic presence of Vermont’s Independent Senator Bernie Sanders. His refreshing consistency and focus on economic inequality brought vitality to the event and reminded many Democrats of their party’s fundamental values.

For the Vermont Senator, it was a sober and intentional choice to run as a Democrat. Sanders believes there is a pathway to the presidency, and despite his history of political independence, that path is not with a third party.

Bernie’s decision to compete and his success on the Democratic stage has been a blessing to the party and to the political process. If Sanders had chosen to remain independent or align with a fringe party, it is unlikely that he could have generated the kind of attention he has gotten or the heightened

level of interest from new and disenchanted voters, citizens whose enthusiasm is essential if we are to revive our stagnating democracy. For better or for worse the major political parties provide the only path to victory at the presidential level for the foreseeable future.

Yet for all the crippling polarization in Washington, Democrats and Republicans in Northern New York provide a visible reminder of how citizens can come together on issues such as economic development, infrastructure, and the environment, even if we disagree on other things.

Here in the North Country, party politics is working in ways that it has failed in other places. We have among the highest levels in the nation of voters who cross party boundaries to chose a mix of candidates. And groups such as the Common Ground Alliance in the Adirondacks continue to present a counterexample to the scorched earth politics in our nation’s capital.

As the relative parity between the major parties in our area improves we strengthen the local dialogue even more. We need strong and opposing voices in our politics and the kind of common ground that big tent inclusiveness in these parties can bring. And even on the eve of the 2015 local elections, it’s not too early to work for an expanded voter turnout in 2016.

Matt Funiciello’s 2014 Green Party candidacy in the NY 21st, like that of Bernie Sanders’ current run, generated attention and participation, and now Funiciello has the chance to follow Sanders’ example and bring that energy to a more prominent stage - one with the real possibility of advancement - by seeking the 2016 Democratic line as well.

All candidates for the post, and the political process itself, will benefit.

LETTERS

You have the power, use it

One justice fulfills need

To the Editor: The people of Ticonderoga have the freedom and the right and opportunity to vote for candidates of their choice. There are many reasons why we should get out and vote. The first reason is simply because we can as citizens of the United States of America.

The officials we elect will have a direct impact on our lives. Property owners and renters will be taxed which are decided upon by these elected officials who in turn will decide what services we receive and how much we pay for them. For example, decisions elected officials will make concern our infrastructure which as a maintenance of roads and sidewalks, as well as water service and sewer operations. Our elected officials will decide which direction Ticonderoga will take concerning the police station, fire department and highway department, all of which need repair, replaced or perhaps relocated.

What decisions will the people we elect concerning our young people make to keep them healthy happy, and drug free. After graduation how do we motivate young people to return to live here, and will there be jobs to keep them here in Ticonderoga? The decisions elected officials make today may very well affect the economy of the future.

You have the privilege and the right to get out and vote for the candidates of your choice. Contact your friends and neighbors to remind them to vote on Nov. 3. Better yet, off them a ride if they need it.

You have the Freedom and the Power to Vote. Your Vote Matters!

Lester Billow Ticonderoga

To the Editor: On Nov. 3, residents of Westport will have the opportunity to vote on a resolution to reduce the number of justices from two to one. Currently, the town employs two justices although one of those positions is vacant. The Town Board has proposed to eliminate one position.

Here are some facts about this proposed change: The Town taxpayers will save money with one Justice. This savings is estimated to between $10,000 and $15,000 per year. This will make a significant difference in staying within the State imposed Tax Cap. It will also save $100,000 to $150,000 over a ten-year period.

The caseload is small enough for one Justice to handle. Eight Towns in Essex County currently have one Justice. These include Schroon, which handled $404,192 and North Hudson which handled $178,227. Westport handles $110,000.

There is no charge back to a Town if another Town has to handle cases because the Justice is not available. This is common practice and happens even in Towns with two Justices.

If the one Justice system, for whatever reason, has problems, the Town of Westport Town Board can at any time by resolution go back to two Justices.

When you vote, please take into consideration this information. Thank you.

Accident waiting to happen To the Editor: I live on one of the more dangerous stretches of County Rte. 12, or Stowersville Rd. NYCO trucks scream around a blind curve in one direction, meeting others of their kind as they come up a blind rise from the other direction. Often five or six trucks pass in a given minute. There’s a huge tree very close to the road that I’ve spent thousands of dollars hoping to save, though it poses a threat to my house, because it also shields me from skidding vehicles that lose control on the curve. One year a propane truck flipped there, necessitating evacuation of anyone within the vicinity. It’s a tree that’s in the county right of way, but only if they feel like taking it down. Otherwise, I was informed, the right of way ends with the pavement.

The thing is, a widow-maker branch has been dangling above the road for the past few months, dropping a bit more every few weeks, posing a lifethreatening risk to the motorist unlucky enough to be in the car it falls on or in front of, as well as to the one (or more) driving unaware in the opposite direction. It’s also directly over my power line. NYSEG informed me they do not take pro-active action to prevent damage to power lines, so they won’t do anything about it. The Lewis Highway Department responded the same way to both my inquiry and one put forth on my behalf by our town Supervisor. So, I thought that as a public service, I’d make use of this forum to alert the NYCO drivers and anyone else who regularly goes that way that none of our public service agencies is looking out for your lives, though they will respond once dispatched to pry you out of your crushed cab. Heads up!

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Dick & Jane Gordie Little

Columnist

A

s I was perusing posts on a social medium page, I developed butterflies in my midsection. A book cover photo transported me back to second grade. Who among my readers does not have memories of “Dick and Jane” in their various iterations?

Some remember the more famous “Dick and Jane” lines from the books. We even recall the names of the characters: Dick and Jane, Baby (Sally), Father, Mother, Spot (the dog), the cat Puff and a teddy bear named Tim. I remember when Spot was actually a cat in my first “Dick and Jane” book.

I looked over my coffee cup and showed Kaye the cover photo. We laughed together and the memories tumbled out, mostly from me. We also remembered that some of our children were introduced to reading via the “Dick and Jane” books right up until they were discontinued in the early ‘70s.

If I had time, I would go upstairs or out into the garage and paw through my collection of ancient school books dating to the 18th century. I wouldn’t be surprised to see my old “Dick and Jane” book along with all the others. It’s probably worth a couple hundred bucks these days. To me, though, it’s worth a million.

I’ll wager you didn’t know the so-called “mother” of the “Dick and Jane” reader had a close connection to Clinton County.

Not this one—Clinton County, Indiana. She was born there in 1889 and, although she was not actually the author, just about everything about the books was conceived by Zerna Addis Sharp, a school teacher and administrator for many years.

The ideas for “Dick and Jane” came along later and we learned through the years that she referred to Dick and Jane as “my children.”

I’m not sure those early readers had a whit to do with teaching me to read. I can thank my mom and dad for reading the Bible and the “Readers Digest” to me before I could walk, encouraging me to love words before I could say many of them aloud. I don’t know how old I was when I could read simple books on my own, but it was before formal school began and that voracious hunger has remained undiminished.

Zerna Sharp left this world in 1981, but “Dick and Jane” are her legacy. Did you know Dick and Jane’s clothes were chosen from the popular store catalogues of the day? I should mention artists Keith Ward and Eleanor Campbell’s simple and distinctive illustrations in the earlier books, because we have them indelibly ensconced in our memories.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention another school reader from the early 1950s. Vanity prompts me to direct your thoughts to “Tommy Little,” and his dog Skip. Of course they weren’t as popular as “Dick and Jane.” After all they were “Littles.”

NYSP speaks at Ti ElementaryMiddle School about cyber-safety

By Jill Lobdell

jill@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — Investigator Todd Svarczkopf of the New York State Police Computer Crime Unit Northern Region spoke to Ticonderoga fourth through eighth grade students Oct. 20 on the importance of being safe with social media and the issues such as cyber-bullying, predators, and other potential criminal activity that occurs.

Svarczkopf told the students there are 1,463,632,361 people online worldwide, 1/10,000 of which are potential offenders which means there are 146,363 offenders world-wide.

The Computer Crime Unit was started in 1992 with currently 36 active members.

Svarczkopf told students not to give any personal information out over the phone or internet. When he asked the students in grades six through eight if any of them should be concerned about stolen identities, a majority of them said no.

He said that they should be aware now.

“Delete Kik immediately,” he said. “It is the one site that means ‘chat with random people’ and is the worst site for predators.

“If predators want you, they can find you even if you block

them on social media,” Svarczkopf added. “These things happen locally, not just in the big cities.”

Some tips he gave the students were never meet someone online; if you do, don’t go alone. This is for adults as well.

Be careful on what you post whether it is a post or photo,” he said. “Troopers, teachers and other officials have been fired due to posts on social media.”

Students in the fourth and fifth grade asked how young was the youngest person he arrested for a cyber crime. He responded 10 years old. There were a few gasps and wide eyed children.

He went on to tell students if they feel something online is inappropriate, talk to a teacher, parent or counselor.

“Your parents may get upset that you are chatting or planning on meeting somebody, but would rather hear from you than from me or one of my buddies when you are missing,” Svarczkopf said.

ABOVE: Investigator Todd Svarczkopf gives students a thumbs up after they gave correct responses to his questions during the Cyber-bullying assembly at Ticonderoga Middle school Oct. 20.

Moses Ludington to partner with CVPH for ER telemed New program will allow faster access to physicians, along with partnership with HHHN

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — As part of the growing partnership between Moses Ludington Hospital and the University of Vermont Health Network, officials have put a plan in place to help the emergency room facility in communicating with certified physicians.

Currently, physicians at Hudson Headwaters Health Network have been providing physician oversight for the emergency department at MLH on a contract basis.

As part of contract re-negotiations, the UVM Health Network will provide part of the oversight through telemedicine.

“Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital in Plattsburgh has come up with a plan to take over the physician oversight,” said Jane Hooper, communications director with Elizabethtown Community Hospital, who is helping with the MLH transition.

“The first call in any case will be to a board certified ER physician at the CVPH ER,” Said Rod Boula, CEO of ECH and Inter Lakes Health. “They will provide consultation and backup through a phone consultation first, then through our telemedicine program if needed.

“The second call would be made through a contractual arrangement with Hudson Headwaters for an actual physicians presence in the emergency room,” Boula added. “If we need someone there stat, they would be there in the regulated time period.”

“There has been a tremendous amount of effort put into establishing this service,” said Dr. Kent Hall, an emergency physician at CVPH and Vice President Medical Affairs/ Chief Medical Officer. “Teams here and at MLH developed policies, procedures and protocols, purchased and installed the necessary equipment. The Moses-Ludington emergency department team can now get immediate and 24-hour a day access to an emergency care physician here in Plattsburgh.

It is a great example of how members of the University of Vermont Health Network are working together to provide their communities with great care.”

“The emergency room at MLH is staffed with physician assistants and nurses who have an incredible amount of

knowledge, training and skill in regard to providing emergency care,” Hooper said. “The plan developed by CVPH allows MLH staff to access emergency room physicians in Plattsburgh – either by phone or through a high-definition video connection to collaborate on patient care, or to report on a course of treatment.”

Under the plan, all ESI Level 1 patients (most urgent) will have an automatic consultation and ESI Level 2, 3, 4 and 5 (least urgent) will be consulted as needed to assure that the course of treatment is appropriate and supported.

“Many times, it is very clear to emergency department staff at Moses Ludington exactly what needs to be done,” Hooper said. “Emergency department staff must act quickly, without hesitation or delay; and those patients will be triaged, treated and transported as required. In those particular instances, Moses Ludington staff will contact the emergency room physicians at CVPH to offer an account of the life-saving care undertaken at Moses-Ludington so that the physicians at CVPH are aware, and the information can become part of the patient’s medical record.”

Hooper added the change reflects the continued effort of

local medical providers to work together.

“It is a very positive thing to see hospitals in this region and how good they are at helping each other out,” she said.

Updates While discussing the changes at the MLH ER, Boula was asked about the ongoing plans to bring a dentist back to the Inter Lakes campus and talks about selling off the nursing home portion of the campus.

“We are really close to having an agreement with a dentist and hope within a week to be finalizing a lease with them,” Boula said. “As far as the nursing home, we have a plan A and plan B. By the end of this month (October), we are hoping to have an asset purchase agreement in place.”

Boula admitted it has been a long process, but he has been limited in what he can release.

“There are a lot of moving parts here, and many of those parts we are not at liberty to talk about,” he said.

Town announces installation of new commerce park signs TICONDEROGA — The Town of Ticonderoga announces that two new signs have been installed at the Commerce Park. Commerce Park is located off County Rte 74. As an Economic Development project of the Town of Ticonderoga, a new sign at the Ticonderoga Commerce Park is a means to help

draw attention to the four businesses in the park which include Tractor Supply Company, Adirondack Meat Company, Commerce Park Self Storage and National Grid.

Discussions on this project started last November between the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, PRIDE of Ticond-

eroga, and the Town of Ticonderoga. The previous sign and vegetation had all been permitted by the APA and regulations had to be carefully checked prior to any work being done.

Jodi Olcott of the Essex County Industrial Development Agency (IDA) visited the site in December after being requested by the Town to serve as an advisor for the project. Local signage laws were checked with the Town Code Enforcement Officer Bill Ball as well as the Town Planning Board.

“Early on it was determined that the first step should be to clean up the entrance to the Park. By early winter, Code Enforcement had the tough job of having illegal, irrelevant and unsightly signs removed. We then went to work at designing the replacement for the tired sign at the road with one that Pictured with one of the new signs at Commerce Park are representawould be brighter, more vis- tives from Tractor Supply Company, Town of Ticonderoga, and Commerce ible and of similar look and Park Self Storage.

any full moons ago, my niece, Sydney, cried out, “I want PUMPKIN kinda scary not GHOOSTY kinda scary”!

Well, hold on to your plastic mask little one, because both kinds of freight are close at hand.

Trunk or Treat at Two Locations A “Trunk or Treat” can be a big adventure for a young princess or cowboy. And parents holding the shaking little hand, appreciate a safe place for them to celebrate Halloween.

It’s a bit like a tailgate party except here you fill up on candy instead of potato salad. “ There is no age limit, everyone is welcome,” said Cindy, one of the organizers of Crown Point’s event, she continued, ”All sorts of people volunteer to be trunk-stops.

Some live in the boonies, where they don’t get trick or treaters, others have been part of this tradition for years. If someone wants to hand out treats, great, we would love to have them.” Everyone who wishes to be a stop on the ToT, should decorate their car and bring a pile of goodies.

Both ToTs are on Saturday, Oct. 31.

The Crown Point Park in Crown Point has their car to car candy collecting from 4:30-6 p.m. If you would like to talk with Cindy, call her at 597-3160.

Not to be outdone, the West Chazy Ladies’ Auxiliary is holding a similar event from 5-7:30 p.m. In addition to getting candy corn from the back of numerous parked cars, there are some pretty sweet pumpkins waiting to be carved. AND the Auxiliary is throwing down the gontlet, by offering a cash prize for the best trunk decorations!

It’s time to get out the crepe paper hanging bats-Game on Ladies, game on.

If you want to be part of this hoopla, it’s at 7656 on Route 22, in the town of West Chazy.

7:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 (cash or checks only). If you question my description, go to Pendragontheatre.org or call 891-1854.

It’s just a jump to the left. And then a step to the right!...Let’s do the time-warp again!

If you know the song, this won’t be your first Rocky Horror Picture Show. This “R” rated, 70’s cult classic gets better with every viewing. Grab a handful of rice, a roll of toilet paper, and maybe an umbrella then head to the Charles R. Wood Theater, in Glens Falls, on Friday, Oct. 30. The show starts at eight p.m. If you aren’t sure what else to bring, question the folks at 798-9663.

Bruce has been running from sea to shining sea NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla — David V. Bruce of New Smyrna Beach, Fla, a native of Port Henry, has now completed a full marathon (26.2 miles) in every state in the U.S.A. His races are certified by the 50 State Marathon Club located in Houston, TX. Bruce has been running for more than 30 years, however, he increased the number of marathons to one per month during the last three years in order to finish early and manage his cost. Marathon racing is an expensive sport averaging $1,000 to $1,500 per event. Most marathons require long distance travel from his home in Florida. The cost includes registration fees, airfares, car rentals, hotels, meals and related expenses.

Having made the commitment to complete the 50 states, Bruce has tried to keep the cost down by running multiple races per trip. In June, 2015 he ran the Governor’s Race in Helena, MT, on June 13. He then drove to Bear Lake in Idaho ran that marathon, and the next day competed the marathon in Utah. It was a grind but it wrapped up three states in a week.

Having spent time in all fifty states, Bruce said, “Often we blame America first and we do not appreciate the greatness and the beauty of this country. Through this experience of traveling to every state, one can’t help feeling thankful for our amazing country and how wonderful our people are. While traveling in Montana and Wyoming, seeing the breath taking grandeur of Yellowstone National Park, one confirms a belief in America’s greatness. Having said this, we as a nation need to be mindful of the tragedy of the conditions we as Americans are tolerating on our Native American Indian Reservation, such as Pine Ridge in South Dakota.”

Bruce admits, some marathons were more interesting than others. He experienced running Death Valley, CA via rough mountain trails through Titus Canyon, where he ran to a height of 6,200 ft. then descended to 300 ft. below sea level.

As he ran he had to jump over giant Tarantula spiders slowly crossing his path. The Extraterrestrial Full Moon Midnight Marathon that is run in the high desert about 90 miles north of Las Vegas is famous for the place called “Area 51”. This is the home of the most sightings of Unidentified flying objects in the country. The night sky was filled with stars, a bright moon, shooting stars but no UFO’s that night. A bit of a side bar, on the way to Bruce’s hotel, he ended up on the shuttle bus sitting with Regis Phylbin...great guy!

Bruce indicates the numbers are always interesting. To run the “50 States” it’s 1,310 miles, however, it is the training miles that tell the real story. Most marathoners run on an average of 35 to 40 miles every week as part of the training process. Normally this will require but eight years or six plus marathons a year to complete the schedule. This translates into more

than 14,500 miles on the back side to be in physical condition to maintain this level of performance. Bruce said while he is pleased with his achievement, he is a far cry from Larry Macon of San Antonio, TX, who Bruce ran with in Bear Lake, UT on June 20, 2015. Larry had run 1,484 full marathons.

At age 70, Larry is a cool dude. In the Rocket City Marathon in Huntsville, AL, Bruce ran with a 62 year old woman who had run seven marathons, in seven weeks on seven different continents. Perhaps the most inspiring young person he met was Sarah Reinertsen. At age seven, she had her lower leg amputated. She went on to become an outstanding athlete,

complete the Hawaiian Ironman and wrote the inspiring book “In a Single Bound”. “These folks keep the rest of us humble.”

Bruce said.

Throughout the USA there are approximately 1,100 marathons conducted each year. As of this writing there are 1,150 certified 50 state marathoners of which 770 are men and 380 are women. A range of 135 to 150 join each year. Bruce is now part of this group.

“It’s Politics! With somewhat of chuckle”, Bruce said, “Marathons are older than dirt!” According to Edward S. Creasy, a military historian and author of “Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World”, marathons go back to 4990 BC, when the Athenians defeated the Persians at Marathon, Greece. The commander of the Greek Army sent Phillippides, an already proven runner, to Athens, He announced, “Rejoice, we conquer!” He than collapsed and died. However his spirit lives on in the hearts of runners as a symbol of commitment, endurance and willpower. As Paul Harvey used to say “Now for the rest of the story!” The actual distance is 24.84 miles or 40,000 meters, so why 26.2 miles? It’s Politics! Fast forward to 1896 when the Olympic Games started, it was 24.84 miles.

In 1908 the games were held in London, England and things got interesting. Queen Alexandra and the “Royals” wanted to have the finish line in front of their “viewing box”, but it would increase the distance to 26.2 miles vs the 24.84 miles.

After much wrangling, the “Royals” got their way. After nearly 16 years of heated discussions, the 26.2 mile distance was established at the 1924 Olympics in Paris, France as the official marathon distance.

Next on Bruce’s agenda is investigating walking the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. He said “He should not have seen the movie, “A Walk in the Woods!”

David V. Bruce is nearly 74 years of age. He retired in 1996 after 33 years as one of the directors of the Cornell Cooperative Extension System and also served briefly as the acting University Representative to Northern New York. Upon retiring, he became the director for Catholic Charities for the Diocese of Albany in Herkimer county. In 2001 he was a hospital administrator for Lake Martin Community Hospital in Dadeville, AL. Later he served on the staff of Elk Lake Lodge in North Hudson. Presently Bruce is active in New Smyrna Beach serving on the Board of Directors of Southeast Volusia Habitat for Humanity, a member of the Human Service Ministry of Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church and a volunteer with the New Smyrna Beach Marine Sea Turtle Conservancy. He is also President of the Port Henry High School Alumni Association in his former home town.

As an example, Gratto talked about a recent physical education course.

“The teacher was instructing the students on how to play paddle ball,” Gratto said. “He sent them a link to a video on how to hit a proper backhand in paddle ball and then asked four or five questions about it. This way, he knew if the students had done the assignment and they came into the class already knowing how to play the game.”

Examples like this, Gratto said, are proving the Chrome Books are having an impact on the students.

“They have to be engaged in their education and this is how they become engaged in almost everything else in this day and age, so why not with education,” he said.

The Chrome Books are not taken home by the students, but are used to help with assignments and even communication between students and teachers.

“We use Google Docs, where teachers and students can access the same file to edit and work on papers and assignments at the same time,” Gratto said. “With Google Classroom, teachers can send information to their students in many different ways.”

Gratto said if the program continues to succeed, he envisions more Chrome Books in the school.

“I could see this expanding into our upper elementary grades and, who knows, maybe throughout all the classrooms at some point,” he said.

Schroon Lake CS plans to start continuing education program Ideas for classes currently sought

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

SCHROON — The community here will soon have the chance to broaden their horizons as part of a continuing education program through Schroon Lake Central.

“We want to continue to make the school be an integral part of the community and allow them to take advantage of this great facility,” Superintendent Stephen Gratto said. “With that, we want to create a continuing education program.”

Under the current plan, the program would start at the beginning of next year (after the holiday break) with a spring series of classes and programs.

Gratto said the program is seeking community members with skills and interests they would want to share with others.

“We are looking for proposals by mid-November so we have time to go over them and put a program together to offer to the community,” he said. “It is something which should be cost neutral to the district, so we will evaluate all programs on the facilities needed, cost and appeal of the course.”

Gratto will be joined by members of the school board and faculty in looking over the proposals and determining a course list.

“We know there are a lot of talented people in this community and it can be quiet during the winter months,” Gratto said. “We want to get people into the school and allow them to reap the benefits of their tax dollars.”

Those interested in submitting a proposal for a potential class to be part of the continuing education series can get a proposal form through Gratto at the school and submit them no later than Nov. 15.

For more information, call Schroon Lake Central School at 532-7164 or email Gratto at sgratto@slwildcats.org.

Vets to be honored in assembly SCHROON — Schroon Lake Central School will hold a Veteran’s Day Assembly Tuesday, Nov. 10, at 1:40 p.m. This assembly honors Veterans and is a very patriotic program. American Legion Post 982 and VFW Post 362 will be in attendance. All Veterans as well as the community are encouraged to attend. For more information, call 532-7164.

Richard Meyer lands Conservative Party line for Nov. 3 State’s highest court upholds decision to void ballot

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County Judge Richard Meyer has successfully fought back a challenge from his opponent, Brian Barrett, to appear on the Conservative Party’s ballot line in next month’s general election.

Friday’s decision by the state’s highest court to deny a motion of appeal puts a definitive end to the six-week fight over who will be the party’s torchbearer.

The margin between the candidates has swung back and forth between one vote since primary voters headed to the polls on Sept. 10, with the outcome ultimately hinging upon a pair of absentee ballots.

One was counted; the other, set aside based on residency issues.

The voter who cast the nowvoided ballot, James Abbott, testified earlier this month in state supreme court that he resided in Essex County.

The appellate court later found that argument “unpersuasive” following testimony that Abbott lives, works and receives mail in Georgia.

Factoring into their decision was testimony that the parcel of land in Keene underpinning Meyer Abbott’s residency was sold to him for $1 by his father nearly one week after he registered to vote in Essex County.

“At the conclusion of the hearing, Supreme Court found that Abbott’s testimony was not credible and, therefore, the presumption of residency had been sufficiently rebutted,” wrote the five appellate justices in their unanimous decision.

“Considering the evidence presented, and given the proximity of the transfer of the Essex County property to the filing of Abbott’s voter registration, one could reasonably conclude, as Supreme Court did, that Abbott did not live in Essex County.”

On Wednesday, with the vote tied at 46-46, the state executive party met in Brooklyn and nominated Meyer to be their candidate.

The decision was no surprise: Meyer, who is running for a second term on the bench, received the party’s endorsement in 2005 and was the “overwhelming choice” when members of the state executive committee opted to authorize him in July, New York State Conservative Party Executive Director Shaun Marie told the Sun on Friday.

“We are pleased that Judge Meyer prevailed in the lawsuit and is the Conservative Party candidate for Essex County Court Judge,” said Marie.

Meyer said he was “pleased and honored” to have the party’s support.

“I am humbled by the determination of the Executive Committee members that I am the best qualified candidate for the office of Essex County Judge,” said Meyer, “and I deeply appreciate their confidence in me.”

Barrett struck a defiant tone following Friday’s decision.

“I find Judge Meyer’s tactic of suing me to disenfranchise the vote of two college students upsetting and a disservice to democracy,” said Barrett. “I wanted every vote counted.”

Barrett, who is a Lake Placid-based defense attorney, said he looks forward to the general election where “I’ll have to win by a wider margin to withstand another litigious attack by my opponent if he is upset with the results.”

The Essex County Board of Elections certified the ballot yesterday, giving election officials just 10 days to print and distribute them before the election on Nov. 3.

Church to host veteran’s service CROWN POINT — The friends and members of the First Congregational Church of Crown Point, Red Brick Church in the Park, are planning their eighth annual Veteran’s Recognition and Appreciation Sunday to be held Sunday, Nov. 8, beginning at 9:30 a.m. During their regular Service.

Veterans from local VFWs, American Legion’s, Disabled American Veteran’s (DAV), as well as individual veterans have been invited to share this time of gratitude for sacrifices that they have made for our country and our communities.

This year we welcome with us the Essex County Veterans Affairs Agent, Mr. Timothy Pierce.

Mr. Pierce’s will bring news and encouragement during the Service. He will have comments on the Veteran’s Health Benefits. This will be a honor to hear and get to know him.

Did people realize that it is estimated that the men and women who are part of “The Greatest Generation” and Served during the Second World War are dying at a rate of 1000 per week?

Did people know that thousands of men and women fought, were wounded and died and their efforts were under or never acknowledged? Did people know that the majority of men and women serving in the Middle East are members of a local Guard or Reserve unit?

Let’s make this Veteran’s Day our opportunity to gather as a community and give thanks for the commitment these Veterans showed to their country by raising their hands and serving this great nation. Coffee and fellowship follows the Service.

Everyone is invited. For more information or directions contact the Pastor at 597-3398.

Traveling cooking show comes to Plattsburgh Sunday

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — Nancy Mock stood on stage and beamed.

Several months ago, the Colchester resident submitted a recipe to Taste of Home magazine, a smoky gouda and chicken melt sandwich, and it was accepted.

For readers of the national cooking magazine, which has a circulation of 3.2 million, recipe acceptance marks something of a badge of honor, validation from the gatekeepers to the country’s kitchens.

Taking her involvement a step further, Mock, who is a volunteer field editor for the magazine, opted to participate in last year’s Taste of Home Cooking School in Plattsburgh, the annual roadshow that brings a visiting celebrity chef before live audiences to recreate some of the magazine’s most popular recipes.

“I like the magazine so much I thought it would be great to stay active,” said Mock, one of a handful of assistants who helped the chef, Eric Villegas, prepare a spread of 10 different dishes before a crowd of hundreds.

As the assistants worked in clock-like precision to prepare dishes like chicken and mushroom spanakopitas, gingerbread cheesecake and soft beer pretzels, Villegas kept the crowd entertained with fast-paced commentary.

This year’s event, the sixth installment of the region’s largest fall show, is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 1 at the Crete Center

in Plattsburgh.

Like Mock, participants say it’s a way to keep engaged while learning new tricks in the kitchen and building a sense of community.

Mary Hamilton, Port Henry, estimated she had just about all of the cookbooks.

“I enjoy the show a lot,” said Hamilton.

This year’s guest chef is Amy Zarichnak, a Pittsburgh native who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 2014.

Sponsors include Wilson’s Appliance, Kneucraft Fine Jewelry & Design, Price Chopper, Della Auto Group and Lenny’s Shoe and Apparel, who, like last year, will host a fashion show

featuring a number of this year’s family-friendly designs.

This year’s installment will feature 43 booths of food producers, craftsmen and other retailers.

Amy Catanzarita, of Altona, would come every year and sit in the same place with her mother, who passed away on Christmas Day 2013.

“In memory of my Mom, it means a lot,” said Catanzarita. “It was the last event we ever did together.”

Mom’s favorite recipe was pumpkin roll rumcake.

“Recipes are always wonderful because they’re just about always something someone sent in,” said Gayle Alexander, the Sun Community News CFO who helped organize the event. “You’ve created a recipe no one else has.”

Taste of Home Cooking School: Sunday, Nov. 1 starting at 11 a.m. In addition to over 40 door prizes, attendees will have a chance to win a half-carat diamond ring from Kneucraft Fine Jewelry and Designs, a $2,000 value; an electric range from Wilson’s Appliance and the dishes made on stage the day of the show by Zarichnak. Visit suncommunitynews.com/tickets for more info. Tickets can also be purchased through any of our sponsors.

ABOVE: The Taste of Home Cooking School will arrive in Plattsburgh on Sunday, Nov. 1. The daylong event, the region’s largest fall show, features prize giveaways, vendors and a live cooking demonstration from a celebrity chef.

Keene 2, Johnsburg 1

By Jill Lobdell

KEENE — Caleb Cook scored the winning goal off an assist from Ethan Giglinto at 5:45 left in the second half as Keen won its Class D quarterfinal game against Johnsburg-Schroon Lake Friday, Oct. 23.

The sectional meeting between the Beavers and Jaguars was evenly matched throughout the game. The score was 1-1 with goals from Ethan Giglianto (Josh Baldwin) in the 11th minute, followed quickly by a Branden Hall goal (Patrick Reidinger) in the 22nd minute.

Both teams showed off their great defenses.

“It was nice back and forth,” Keene coach Charlie Platt said.

“They played with a really solid defense. It was hard to knock their defense down. Their keeper (Mark Cleveland) was outstanding. We are just happy to come away with two goals and the win. Both teams had great players and they all left their hearts on the field.”

“I feel that the team did really well,” Keene goalie Max Rossi said. “They kept their heads in the game, they got the goal, and they got the win. I want to go all the way.”

“Johnsburg has always given us trouble,” Justin Haverlick said. “Our team spirit and unity helped us pull this win. I’m very eager to play against Northern Adirondack.”

Looking to their game versus Northern Adiorndack Platt said, “We don’t know anything about them. I’m going to be asking the other coaches questions really quick.”

The Bobcats were the lone team to receive a bye into the semifinal round.

“I thought it was hard fought on both sides,” Johnsburg coach Matt Wells said. “We played even both times we played them. They were a little bit better than we were. All the members including the four from Schroon Lake contributed well.

We have a great foundation and room to improve for next year.”

Elizabethtown-Lewis-Westport 4, Crown Point 0

WESTPORT — The Griffins were able to wear down the Panthers, leading to a four goal victory Friday, Oct. 23.

“Crown Point was every bit as dangerous as I thought they would be,” Griffins head coach Paul Buehler said. “We were able to capitalize on some chances.”

Freshman Hudson Stephens scored the opening goal of the game in the 13th minute, but Crown Point battled to keep

within the lone goal through the rest of the opening 40 minutes.

In the 53rd minute, Joel Morris connected off a pass from Colden Blades to give the Griffins a 2-0 lead, followed by goals from Trey Hulbert (Thomas Mero) in the 70th minute and Mero (Skyler Kurth) in the 34th minute.

Sam Napper made five saves for the Griffins, helping to post a clean sheet along with the defensive effort of sweeper Anderson Gay, stopper Trevor Brooks and wing defenders Jeremy Rossi and Wyatt Gough.

Jacob Norton made seven saves for the Panthers.

“I thought we came out strong,” Panthers coach Randy Pertak said. “There was a moment when I think we could have tied the game, but they went down the field and made it a 2-0 game. That was a big moment.”

Chazy 2, Willsboro 1 CHAZY — The Eagles scored twice in the latter stages of the second half to prevent a repeat of the 2002 upset by the Warriors Oct. 23.

After playing 63 minutes of scoreless soccer, Tyler Hicks connected on a goal off a Josh McCauley assist to earn a 1-0 lead. Corey Ryan then tallied a goal with 48 seconds left in the game.

The Ryan assist may have seen like frosting on the cake at the time, but a let down after the goal allowed Zach Pierson to score nine seconds later, cutting the Eagle lead back to just one for the final 39 seconds of play.

Austin Gravelle had not faced a shot on net until the Pierson goal, while Lucas Cross made 16 saves for Willsboro.

LadyÊ WildcatsÊ earnÊ drawÊ againstÊ Keene

By Keith Lobdell

CHAZY — Everything was stacked against the Schroon Lake girls varsity team heading into the season finale Oct. 15 against Keene.

The Beavers were 15-0-0, while the Wildcats were playing without midfielder Abigail Belrose and unable to put starting keeper McKayla Vanderwalker in net. To make matters worse, an injury forced them to compete one player short.

However, the Wildcats battled through 80 minutes of regulation and 20 minutes of overtime to force a scoreless tie with the Class D top seed, who finished with the best regular season record in the Northern Soccer League.

“I couldn’t think of a better way to end the season,” first-year Wildcat coach Katie Jenks said.

“Our mantra for the season was Wildcat Pride, and there was no shortage of it that night.”

With Vanderwalker in the field, Jenks turned to Alora Bearor in net, who made 22 saves compared to four by Keene keeper Madison Gifford.

“Alora Bearor, after having only played in goal a couple of games, did an amazing job,” Jenks said. “I think when a player really steps it up, it inspires the rest of the team.”

In doing so, the Wildcats were able to keep the top scoring duo in Division III - Hanna Whitney and CorrieAnn Stoner, out off the sheet.

“Honestly, our main game plan against Keene was to go in with the attitude that we had nothing to lose and we were determined to finish our season strong,” Jenks said. “We had only 10 players because of injuries, so after moving some players around slightly, we found a good emphasis on an aggressive defense where we could pressure Hanna Whitney more, without sacrificing too much of our offense. But what really kept us in the game was the girls’ relentless determination not to quit and to keep giving it all they had. Not an easy task through one hundred minutes of soccer without subs.”

Chazy 4, Johnsburg 1

By Keith Lobdell

CHAZY — The sixth seed Lady Jaguars came out strong, but were unable to keep back the wave that was the second seed Lady Eagles Oct. 26.

Khaleah Cleveland was first to find the net as the Jaguar forward took a pass from Megan Bacon and gave them a 1-0 lead in the fourth minute of play.

“It was almost like a wake up call and we knew we had to come back harder,” Eagles coach Karin Sherman said.

The Eagles did just that, scoring four times in the first half and once more in the second.

Natalie Pombrio scored the first two goals for the Eagles, on a Lindsay Gilmore assist in the seventh minute and a Kyra Becker assist in the 17th minute.

Pombrio then assisted on a Kendra Becker goal in the 25th minute, as Kendra scored again on an assist by Kyra in the 36th minute.

Bailey Pepper finished the scoring in the 61st minute on a Gilmore assist.

Cassidy Roberts made a late save for the Eagles, jumping to push a ball just over the crossbar to keep a four goal advantage late.

Savanna Berg made 15 saves for the Jaguars, who reached the Class D semifinals in just their second year as a varsity program after scoring a 1-0 defeat over third seed Crown Point Oct. 22, as Bacon scored the lone goal in the win on a Cleveland assist.

“Sheer will and determination,” Jaguar head coach Cindy Homer said about the win. “Our goal was a cross from Khaleah (right side) to Megan (goal center) for a one-touch.”

After falling, 1-0, to Willsboro in their first varsity season in 2014, the win marked the first for the Jaguars in the post season, who previously operated a varsity field hockey program.

The Eagles will know get a third chance to solve the Keene riddle, as the two teams will meet for the Class D title Saturday, Oct. 31, with an 11 a.m. kickoff at Plattsburgh High School.

ClassÊ DÕ sÊ Moriah,Ê TiconderogaÊ boastÊ topÊ recordsÊ inÊ SectionÊ VIIÊ championshipsÊ thisÊ weekend

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

CLINTONVILLE — The eyes of the high school football world will be on the AuSable Valley athletic facility this weekend as three titles will be decided.

The Class D championship game will take place Friday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m., matching the top two teams in the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference in top seed Moriah (8-0) and second seed Ticonderoga (7-1).

Games start at noon on Halloween Saturday, Oct. 31, as the Class C top seed Saranac Lake Red Storm playing the AuSable Valley Patriots on their home turf.

At 3 p.m., the Class B championships will feature a matchup of top seed Peru and second seed Beekmantown.

AuSable Valley quarterback William Coats looks up the field.

Class C: Red Storm and Patriots

I

n the opening week of the 2015 season, the Red Storm made their way to Clintonville and scored a 16-12 victory to give them the top seed in the Class C playoffs.

The Red Storm opted not to play during the crossover week, while the Patriots dropped a 30-6 score against Malone.

The game features one of the top quarterbacks in the league in the Red Storm’s Tristan Fitzgerald, while the Patriots are facing a bit of a quarterback controversy as Dalton McDonald started the Malone game over William Coats.

The Red Storm is the defending Class C champion, having defeated the Patriots in last year’s championship game, as well.

Moriah’s Adam Jaquish stands in the pocket with pressure from Brandon McKeown and Ryan Trudeau.

Class D: Vikings and Sentinels

I

n a game many thought might go the other way, it was the Moriah Vikings who struck early and often in defeating the Ticonderoga Sentinels during week three of the regular season, 28-6, with the Sentinels lone touchdown coming on the last play of the game.

Since, neither team has lost, with Moriah and Ticonderoga each defeating Saranac Lake and Peru in a sweep of defending sectional champions.

The game will feature two of the top running backs in the league, as the Vikings will feature Colin Harris while the Sentinels will counter with Brody Rocque. Both teams also have viable second options in the run game in fullbacks Cody Stockwell and Ryan Trudeau.

The biggest difference offensively comes in the air, as the Vikings were one of the top passing teams in the league led by quarterback Adam Jaquish and receivers Taylor Slattery and Jarrod MacDougal. The team has also received aerial help from tight end Noah Gilbo, who has improved throughout the season.

Both teams feature strong defenses, with the Sentinels led by Chase Dixon, Caleb Munson and Jacob Spaulding. Gilbo anchors the Viking defensive 11, while linemen Billy Larrow and Todd Clarke are frequently seen in the oppositions backfield, and Jaquish’s height has led to numerous tipped balls and the pick-six earlier in the season.

“It’s always a big deal when the Sentinels and Vikings get together,” Ti head coach Scott Nephew said. “It does not matter where the game is played or what time of year, but week nine is always the game we both look forward to.”

“This is the best rivalry in the North Country and we know they will be ready to play come week nine,” Vikings head coach Don Tesar said. “We’ll be ready, too.”

Each team handled their Section II crossover opponent in week eight, with the Vikings scoring a 34-0 victory over Broadalbin-Perth, and the Sentinels winning 29-19 against Hoosick Falls.

Ticonderoga’s Haleigh Wright controls the ball against Gretchen Zalis of Seton Catholic in the Class C quarterfinals. The Knights scored a 3-0 victory against the Sentinels.

Peru’s Jordan Guay sets for a pass.

Class B: Indians and Eagles

T

he championship rubber match between the Indians and Eagles, who have split the past two Section VII titles, will take place as the 3 p.m. game on Halloween.

The two teams met the first week of the season, with the Indians scoring 24 points in the fourth quarter to score a 30-6 victory.

Both teams have worked on their passing game throughout the season, with Jordan Guay coming into his own at quarterback for the Indians.

For the Eagles, the defense has improved throughout the season, holding the Moriah Vikings to 25 points in a game they almost rallied to win during week six, then holding Saranac Lake to just six points and Plattsburgh High to seven in the Class B semifinal.

While Beekmantown played the only semifinal game of the weekend, Peru scored a 34-20 win over Massena Oct 23.
