LEWIS — Two New York State Police officers were involved in a high-speed chase that ended with an Au Sable Forks man being shot and killed Tuesday, March 5.

Preliminary findings released by State Police on March 6 revealed that Richard J. “Joey” Aubin, 28, was killed after trying to gain possession of one of the troopers weapons, according to BCI Capt.

Robert LaFountain.

Aubin was first spotted traveling southbound on Interstate 87 at around 5:07 p.m. by police near the town of Schroon Lake.

Police allege he was speeding.

ow exciting it has been for me this last couple of days, the snow is nearly gone, and there is evidence of new life sprouting up from the cold ground, and even can see the buds on the tree's starting to show us that the season is changing. The many shades of spring green is always such a joy to witness.

Our community showed evidence of our care and concern for our aging population, as we see more and more progress in converting the old Willsboro school into a new use to offer a less stressful way of living for that age group. Also this past weekend to be a part of a group from our United Methodist assist one of our members in a move to a Senior Housing unit; this is also a great place to live as one downsizes.

The Willsboro School drama club has presented two more drama plays, one by the younger children and also one by the senior class. This is another great opportunity for our students to learn leadership skills.

The Willsboro/Reber United Methodist Churches have announced their Easter

services; Psalm Sunday will be at regular hours for both churches,Maundy Thursday service will be at 7 p.m. in the Willsboro Church, Good Friday Service will be at noon also in the Willsboro Church, Easter Sunday sunrise service at 7 a.m. in the Reber church with a breakfast to follow, then both churchs will have the regular worship services at the regular time. Any interested persons are welcome to come and share with these congregations this great greeting into Spring.

It is reported that the Congregational Church's last Coffee House had a packed crowd for their last performance of the season, these were nice winter breaks. The Willsboro Bowling lanes and the Whallonsburg Grange continue to offer several special entertainment opportunities, just check their adds.

I’ve been on the road of late, visiting family and friends, exploring national parks and eating things seldom found in Essex County. A specialty beloved in Texas and thereabouts is something called chicken fried steak. This dish seems to have as many versions as chili, and creates just as much contentious regional pride. I stopped in the desert town of Blythe, California for the night and was directed to an old fashioned café for breakfast. Their claim to fame is chicken fried steak, which according to the chatty waitress has no chicken associated with it. She was appalled that I’d never had it before and made sure I understood their unconventional preparation techniques, passed down from some much revered but long dead cook, that made it superior to all others. A sirloin is pulverized sort of like Swiss steak, dredged in flour and secret seasonings, then fried on a blazing hot grill and served with white sausage-laden gravy. No amount of gentle probing could get her to reveal the exact seasonings but it was pretty good. Next week, an unscientific comparison of Pacific oysters to Atlantic ones.

A chance to be heard

T

he state of New York and Gov. Andrew Cuomo could take a lesson from the Essex County Board of Supervisors regarding how to pass legislation.

On March 11, the board held a special SAFE Act Task Force Committee meeting where the new state law banning certain assault weapons and placing restrictions on magazine capacities, among other things, was discussed.

Three versions of a resolution that criticizes the state for the way it handled the passage of the law were presented, one asking for the measure to be amended and two calling for an outright repeal of the law. After discussion and debate, the committee voted to put forward a resolution to the full Board of Supervisors that will call for the repeal of the SAFE Act. That vote will take place at a special meeting called

by Board Chair Randy Douglas Monday, March 18, at 6 p.m. in the county supervisors chambers in Elizabethtown.

What Essex County has done is exactly what opponents of the law have been slamming the state for not doing, taking their time and getting feedback from their constituents on how to address the matter.

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley, who motioned for amendment of the SAFE Act, printed out the law and presented it to members of her town, asking them to check what they liked in the law and cross out what they did not. Gerald Morrow of Chesterfield, who chairs the committee, talked with residents and local sporting organizations. Douglas, who confesses that he does not own a gun, said he has learned more than he ever wanted to about them and the subject of gun violence in relation to this highly-debated law.

When North Hudson's Ronald Moore presented the board with a resolution backing the New York State Sheriff's Association and their stance on the matter, Morrow said that not only did the county need their own voice, they needed to do it the right way.

“If we pass something without taking the time to look at it and study it, then we are no better than the state legislature who did exactly that with this law,” Morrow said.

Residents of Essex County will now get their chance to be heard on the subject during a hearing at 6 p.m. next Monday at the board of supervisor ’s chambers in Elizabethtown. This is your chance to have your opinion added to the more than 40 counties that have already passed meas-

ures calling for the repeal of the SAFE Act. Essex County may be one of the last to act, but to criticize that is hypocritical if you also criticize those at the state who made the rush to judgement to pass the act in the first place. It would be safe to say that the first resolutions to repeal the law may have been knee-jerk reactions to a knee-jerk reaction, and two wrongs do not make a right.

In the same token, it would be hypocritical if you have been one crying for a voice in this matter and then neglect to take advantage of the opportunity the board of supervisors is affording. We encourage all sides to make their voices known, while sticking to our belief that the SAFE Act was indeed a rush to judgement that was created more for potential political gain than for the interest of public safety. As Sheriff Richard Cutting said, “the SAFE Act would not have prevented Sandy Hook, Columbine or any of these other massacres.”

We commend the board of supervisors for the approach they have taken to this topic. With that, let us offer a suggestion.

The county has a budget committee that is already looking to make cuts to help save county taxpayers in the 2014 budget. It’s good to see the board starting early focusing on the budget and the anticipated shortfall in the coming year, but we suggest that the board combines that with more opportunities for the public to comment on the process.

Supervisors should consider holding more meetings in the evening — like they plan to do with the SAFE Act hearing — when more residents are available to attend. There is already a buzz in the county concerning the potential sale of the county fairgrounds in Westport, and it would be good to have a public hearing on the matter, if it gets to that point, before any decision is made.

Then it will be up to the residents to take advantage of the chance to have their voice heard because, as the SAFE Act has proven, silence is not always golden.

Go Lady Pats!

Leadership starts at the top

I

’m not a CPA, accountant or lawyer. I have no degree in political science or economics. I’m a high school grad with a couple years of college. I have no insider information on the inner workings of the federal government, but I’ve been challenged by several readers to be more specific in my column regarding sequestration and offer possible suggestions on how we go about easing the pain of reducing Uncle Sam’s spending by $85 billion.

We all know there isn’t one single dollar the government spends that someone doesn’t think is critically important. But to set the stage for what we are up against, I urge you go watch this simple dramatization of our nation’s current $16 trillion+ debt at demonocracy.info. We must reduce our spending.

Let me start by stating the obvious. I don’t know of one executive administrator who is responsible for managing anything who doesn’t want to control the checkbook and have some say in income generation. I can only come to one conclusion as to why the president isn’t coming forth with a plan. He wants nothing to do with leading the nation. His goal seems to be cuts must hurt, so make the cuts felt and then blame others for the pain. He also seems reluctant to put forth his own cost-saving solutions therefore avoiding any personal blame. This is the exact opposite of what a president should do. Harry Truman said it best: “The buck stops here.”

With the limited information available to me, here are my recommendations if I were in the Oval Office. As a sign of good faith and leadership, we start at the White House. The best estimates I can find tell me it costs about $1.7 billion to run the White House. I’d immediately direct the WH staff, including the presidency, to trim 10 percent from all salaries associated with WH personnel, curtail all extraneous travel, including Air Force One and cut our operational spending by the same amount. I urge Congress to do the same 10 percent cut, and together we can lead the nation to a $1 billion savings. Leadership starts with the leaders.

Next I’d turn to the nearly three million federal employees. We can either cut positions or we can all agree to take a 5 percent across-the-board pay deduction.

It will save the American public about

$10 billion, and everyone gets to keep their jobs. I’m suggesting another $1 billion saved from Dan Alexander frugal efThoughts from forts by Behind the Pressline cutting things like conference costs to office supplies and travel.

In 2010, the Simpson Bolwes National Commission to reform government brought forth a plan that was not acted upon. I would instruct the heads of our 22 civilian and military departments to look at those recommendations and surgically trim their expenditure, not to include any staff reductions, but to trim 2 percent from other expenses, which should save about $48 billion.

Over the years, we’ve repeatedly piled programs on top of pre-existing ones. We should begin today to identify these programs with an estimated goal of cutting $25 billion through the elimination of and merging of certain agencies.

We must put Social Security and Medicare at the top of our lists to ensure their sustainability while reducing costs.

Last year, more than two dozen Fortune 500 companies paid zero federal income tax, short changing the country by $20 billion. We must put an end to corporate welfare and preferential tax deals.

Every American over age 18 must have a financial stake in our country, and I would propose a minimum citizen tax of $250 or about $4.80 a week. For each person over 18 years of age, if you’ve paid nothing into the system, the government will deduct $250 from your refund (benefit) check. That will raise $28 billion.

With all Americans citizens and corporations now having a vested interest in our country, we can create a new culture to rein in costs and once again create a promising opportunity to the future generations.

Thanks to town, county To the Valley News: I just Want to thank the Town of Chesterfield and Essex County DPW for their quick attention to a very important matter.

For several months I have noticed that there have been three street signs missing in the Village of Keeseville: Church Street, Division Street and Santor Lane.

The Village of Keeseville was informed about these signs at least four months ago if not longer and again around a month ago, but it must have fallen on deaf ears, because nothing was done. Being afraid of what could happen should a 911 call be made and the responders may not be knowledgeable of local streets and roads, I called the Supervisor of the Town of Chesterfield and he took it upon himself to ensure the safety of the Village residents on those streets.

All it took him was one phone call to the Essex County DPW and in less than three days they replaced the three street signs.

Again, thank you.

Appreciates column To the Valley News: I want to thank Mr. Hurlburt for his article “Happy not necessarily meaningful’ in the Valley News March 3 edition. Though my struggles through life are few, my mental struggles at times are great with what my life really means. As a young person we have a huge open life and don’t think beyond what makes up ‘happy’ but as we age it seems like we look beyond the ‘happy’ and want our life to mean something to ourselves. As a child we were quite poor and depended on government commodities to help. Plus our Christmas always had the Salvation Army elf. So this day and I remember them and have tried to repay their kindness by volunteering to help others. They have me a meaning to my life at a young age which also created in an instant but I find ‘meaning’ takes time to find or do. So few will give that time but for me time is what we all have even if its busy. Kindness in a unselfish manner has more meaning than anything else we can give besides love. So thank you for this article that gives us all something wonderful to remember and maybe use more often in our daily lives.

Disputes claims To the Valley News: Harry Gough's representation that he and Margaret Bartley "gave" the people of Elizabethtown and Essex County anything but a good fleecing is outrageous and insulting.

Otis Lane is a Town Road and has been since 1914 as sited in the public record mentioned in the Supervisor's newsletter. It has been, and is today, maintained by the Town of Elizabethtown. The Supervisor continues to authorize funding for charges attributed to the State inventoried Town Road named Otis Lane. She must agree with the classification or she could not legally authorize expending our tax dollars for cost attributed to that road. You can't have it both ways.

Without further deduction it seems evident that even Margaret Bartley represents Otis Lane is a Town Road.

Harry, what Mr. Fenimore and I did learn over that six year period you mentioned was that there are indeed people in this world who will take any action necessary, regardless of the impact to taxpayers or personal safety of their neighbors, to achieve their singular personal benefit. You and Margaret were successful in forcing us, the taxpayers, to expend over $70,000 to build an unnecessary new road, finally allowing safe access to property owners who have been held hostage, by you, for over eight years. To now profess to offer some "Golden Calf' gift of dirt to buy your desired consciousness is condescending and an insult to our intelligence.

You and Margaret did achieve your goal of a free, private driveway. You won. It is now necessary for you both to look your neighbors in the eye and admit the only "gift" the taxpayers have received was a dirty little lesson in selfish human behavior.

Members of the Willsboro Central School Key Club Walk-a-Thon present High Peaks Hospice Director TylaAnn Burger with the donation they raised.

Key walk Continued from page 1 "The kids that were in elementary two years ago have been looking forward to the chance to be a part of this, and we for sure have more kids than we did two years ago," Key Club advisor Meaghan Freeman said. "Each student that participates gets sponsored to walk for the night and they have to get at least $25 in order to take part."

"We did this two years ago and donated the money towards cancer research," club president Kyli Swires said. "We had a meeting at the beginning of the year to plan this event, and we wanted to make sure that the money that was raised would go to an organization that would help the local community. We decided

SAFE resolution Continued from page 1 at the county chambers. The board will decide on the resolution at this meeting.

"We have had a lot of emails, phone calls and visits from people since this committee was formed," Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow, task force chair, said. "Every person that I have talked to is in favor of repealing the SAFE Act." Morrow and North Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore both introduced draft resolutions to repeal the law. Both were similar, and the task force voted to use the draft by Morrow.

A third option, which asked for the state to look at amending the law, was presented by Elizabethtown Town Supervisor Margaret Bartley but not accepted by the group.

"I pulled up the 14 provisions of the SAFE Act and have handed out copies for people to show what they agreed with and what they did not agree with," Bartley said. "I have had the range of people coming in and saying that you have to repeal the SAFE Act and others who have come in and said that the law does not go far enough. I wanted to make sure that everyone's wishes could be out there, and not just one group of people."

County Manager Daniel Palmer said that he had read through the entire SAFE Act and was in favor of repeal instead of amend.

"It is so far reaching and it impacts so many parts of the law that it does not make practical sense to try and amend it," Palmer said. "The practical thing to do probably is repeal the law and start over. It is impacting a lot of honest, taxpaying citizens’ lives for no good reason other than facing political pressure."

Palmer added that it would take about $1,000 annually to comply with new regulations that would be placed on the county as well as an ad-

to donate to High Peaks Hospice."

Swires said that prizes and food for the night was acquired with the help of local businesses, which helped lead to a preliminary donation total of $4,340.80.

"I was hoping to hit $3,000," Swires said. "To be almost $1,400 over that is just amazing."

Leading the way for the students was seventh-grader Warren Jackson, who raised $755.

"Mrs. Freeman is my English teacher, and she asked the class about being part of it," Jackson said. "I went through Willsboro, Essex and Whallonsburg asking for donations from people my family knew. My goal started at $50, then went to $100. I kept adding to it and ended up with $755."

Students walked through the night and as

the sun rose welcomed High Peaks Hospice Executive Director TylaAnn Burger to their party to present her with the funds.

Burger, a Willsboro resident, then added to the total by donating $1 for each student who participated (54), bringing the total contribution to 4,394.80.

"When Meaghan told us about what you were doing I was thrilled," Burger said. "You guys have made my year. You have taken care of a lot of people with what you have done here. This may be the largest donation that we have received from a school this year, and you take my breath away."

Once the check was presented shortly before 7 a.m., students then moved on to their next event — getting a ride home to sleep.

ditional employee.

Already, County Clerk Joe Provoncha said that his office had added an additional computer station to help handle the expected workload associated with the new law.

Palmer also spoke to the mental health aspect of the law.

"It aggravates the problem because if you count on that interaction and then a state trooper knocks on your door because of something you may have said, you are never going to a therapist again," Palmer said. "You have some that are not going to report anything and some that are going to try and cover their bases and report everything. Once people start finding out that their confidential conversations with a therapist are subject to being known about by state police, that is going to be a problem."

Sheriff Richard Cutting, who had already spoke to the board about the impact on law enforcement, addressed the board about the impact the law could have on sportsmen.

"The loss of the hunters not coming to the area would mean guides would no longer be able to make money and the beds at local hotels would be vacant that were not before because hunters may have guns that are now illegal in the state or they are protesting coming to the state or whatever," Cutting said. "It is a tremendous industry in New York state and without some consideration and some amendment to this law, there will be a significant impact on the state and revenue."

Along with these issues, several also spoke about the speed at which the law was passed.

"The fact that this law was passed bypassing the democratic system and the chance to have debate over it," Moore said. "They took advantage of a tragedy and utilized that as a vehicle to push this through. This is so fundamentally wrong."

"They did not go through the due process," Morrow said. " If we let them get away with that this time, they will try to do it again. There are a lot of things in the law that are confusing, that law enforcement officials can't seem to get their hands around. It needs to go through the proper channels."

"This was done so rapidly," Cutting said. "A lot of our winter business at the annual Sheriff's Association meeting got set aside for this issue.

The general feeling was that this law lacks. This law would have done nothing to prevent Sandy Hook or Columbine or any of those massacres.

All of these things are what I see as simple, rushthrough errors."

"All of our states and the federal government has a process that allows all of us to say that we have a part in this. This is a law that we did not have a part in," Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington said. "There are very few examples where a government has to say we did not have a law yesterday and we need it today. We need to have our leaders own up to the fact that they acted way too fast and did not own up to the whole picture."

Only one person took to the stand when Morrow asked for public comment and spoke in favor of a repeal.

"As elected leaders of our county, you have taken an oath to defend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, which includes the second amendment," Rich Redman of Moriah said.

"The New York State Legislature are trying to take away the rights of law-abiding citizens.

This is about government seizing control and taking away our personal liberties. There could also be impact because there is a lot of pressure in the sportsmen community to not buy licenses here but go to Vermont of Pennsylvania to hunt. That would be a huge impact on the revenue from $80 to $90 licenses."

Essex County lawmakers may turn back the clock on alcohol sale hours

By Keith Lobdell

ELIZABETHTOWN — Those who throw a few back at local establishments may have two fewer hours to do so in Essex County.

Members of the county's Public Safety Committee tabled a potential resolution to curtail the hours of alcohol sales in Essex County from 4 a.m. to a.m.

"In Clinton County it is 2 a.m., Franklin is 3 a.m., while Warren County is 4 a.m. and is currently looking to roll back to 2 a.m.," Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow said. "It's a resolution that needs to be done

from this board that then moves on to the state ABC board for a hearing. There has been a lot of statistics that nothing good happens between 2 and 4 a.m. It helps with insurance and with arrests."

Several supervisors said that they had already talked to their bars and restaurants about the roll back of serving hours.

"I contacted establishments in my town and surprisingly, no one was against it," Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said. "One of them even said that we might be doing them a favor."

"I checked with the one in my town and that tavern is closed at midnight every

night," Morrow said. "They do not wish to be locked in to a time if they have the ability to stay open."

"With my three establishments, one closes at 9 p.m. and another closes at 10 p.m.," Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley said.

"I never saw any good come out of being in a bar from 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. Most people have had it by then," Schroon Supervisor Michael Marnell said.

Other supervisors said that they wanted to hear more.

"I do not see how this will affect Wilmington at all. Before I do something that will be

LEWIS — As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, Sheriff Richard Cutting is urging motorists to plan a safe ride home and never get behind the wheel drunk. During this holiday law enforcement officials in Essex County will be on high alert, cracking down on drunk drivers as part of its Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over public safety campaign.

“Drunk driving is dangerous, deadly and against the law – and it will not be tolerated in Essex County this St. Patrick’s Day,” said Sheriff Cutting. “Today we are giving fair warning to everyone traveling through Essex County that our law enforcement officers will be out on patrol and if you are caught driving drunk you will be arrested.”

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that over 700 people were killed nationwide in crashes involving drunk drivers during St. Patrick’s Day holidays from 2006 to 2010.

Sheriff Cutting recommends the following easy steps to have a safe and happy St. Patrick’s Day: •Plan a safe way home before the festivities begin.

•Before drinking, designate a sober driver and leave your car keys at home.

•If you’re impaired, use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member, or use public transportation to get home safely.

•If you see a drunk driver on the road, contact local police.

•And remember, if you know someone who is about to drive a car or ride a motorcycle while

impaired, take the keys and help that person make other arrangements to get to where he or she is going safely.

For more information, visit www.trafficsafetymarketing.gov.

Membership drive underway The New York State Sheriffs’ Association Institute will begin its annual Honorary Membership drive in Essex County within the next week according to Sheriff Richard Cutting.

The New York State Sheriffs’ Association Institute was established in 1979. It is a not-forprofit corporation, tax exempt organization, and contributions to the Institute are tax deductible.

While the Sheriff’s Office is a unit of county government, many of the concerns of Sheriffs and other law enforcement agencies are best addressed on a statewide level. The Sheriffs’ Institute provides centralized training programs and services for all Sheriffs’ Offices, where those programs and services would be unavailable or impractical on a single county basis.

The flagship program of the Sheriffs’ Institute is the Sheriffs’ Summer Camp for economically challenged children. Each year, Essex County has been given eight spots in this camp and the kids who have attended have returned with smiles that reach from ear to ear. The children have an opportunity to interact with Deputies on a personal level and see that we are more than the enforcer or uniform, we are in fact, people too.

"I want to hear more from the public before I am going to vote for this," said Dan Connell of Westport.

“It will affect my town the most," North Elba's Roby Politi said. "I have not heard from the mayor or the police force, so I am not ready to voice an opinion at this time."

WESTPORT — Camp Dudley has hired a new food service director to help with their mission of bringing more local food to their campers.

Dan Stromberg recently joined the staff in the new position. Previously, the camp had been hiring an outside contractor for their food services but wanted to increase their ability to purchase local produce.

“They started to do a little of that last year,” Stormberg said. “We are now going to do a good bit more of that and get vegetables and meats as local as we can as much as we can. We are also working with the bigger vendors who can get us local foods.”

Stromberg previously worked in the same capacity at Gwynn Valley Camp in North Carolina, where 70 percent of the food was produced from their own farm.

“That is the main difference where I came from was we grew most of our vegetables there at the camp,” he said. “Here, we are going to get it from a farmer, and we will be able to serve that food in most cases the same

times where they are not as noticeable. We can also make a lot of items from scratch, so we can make cookies with ingredients we know rather than pre-packaged with ingredients you may not need.”

Stromberg added that he is hoping to bring a nutritional education component into the camp to go along with proper eating and healthy habits.

“Providing wholesome food is one of the most important things we do at Camp Dudley to keep our campers healthy and energized,” Dudley Director Matt Storey said.

“The entire camp community comes together three times a day, every day of the season and we have both the responsibility and the opportunity to take advantage of that time to establish good eating habits through a well balanced diet, and Dan is the perfect person to get us where we need to be.”

Stromberg said that he is pleased to be working at the camp.

“Having never been a camper, my experience comes from working at one and it has always felt like it was not just a job but like you were taken into this camp family, and I very much like that.”

‘Guys and Dolls’ comes to Keene auditorium

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com

KEENE — In a show with pizazz, gangsters, good girls, glamour and the music and tales of composer Frank Loesser, the production “Guys and Dolls” will come to the stage at Keene Central School March 22 and 23 at 7 p.m.

The show will be headlined by Sam Balzac as Sky Masterson and Cassandra Day as Sarah Brown.

The play follows their moving tale as both characters start out as complete opposites. Sky, a cool-cat gambler who wants nothing to do with love and Sarah, a straight laced do-gooder with the Salvation Army. The pair, in a story of turns, comedy, music and dance, fall madly in love.

The 32 member cast is made up of a lot of fresh faces to the KCS theater department.

“Most high school plays have predominantly female casts, so I didn’t think we could put on this play,” said play director and KCS Music teacher Lynn Dewalt.

“Sam and Cassandra said they wanted this play and promised to deliver male cast members, and they did.”

Lewis Family Farm sells land to CATS for preservation, trail corridor WESTPORT — Champlain Area Trails (CATS) purchased two parcels of land from the Lewis Family Farm that conserve important wildlife habitat and provide for public hiking trails. The larger 87-acre tract, located between Lakeshore and Angier Hill Roads in Westport, is the key woodland parcel linking Split Rock Mountain Wild Forest and Coon Mountain Nature Preserve. This secures essential habitat connectivity in the Split Rock Wildway wildlife corridor that connects Lake Champlain to the Adirondacks.

The transaction also involved a 12-acre property in Essex with extensive frontage on the Boquet River. It contains riverside forest, riparian wildlife habitat, and an old farm field reverting to woods. Conserving these lands will protect the habitat and remove the threat of runoff from logging and farming too close to the river.

“The Lewis Farm’s Westport property has been a long-time conservation target because it is where animals that prefer woodlands move between the largest protected forest on Lake Champlain and interior timberlands,” Chris Maron, CATS Executive Director said. “It also secures the opportunity to have a trail for people to hike or ski between two of the central Champlain Valley’s most popular natural areas.”

Sandy Lewis said his family understood well the benefit of establishing a natural corridor for wildlife between the lake and

the mountains.

“I was pleased to make the sale,” he said. “CATS is putting together some beautiful trails. This is a key property we sold them.”

Protecting habitat connectivity is supported by the work of conservation biologists who have proven through the “Island Effect” that natural areas lose plant and animal species when they are not connected by natural habitat. The Lewis property is in a narrow forested corridor connecting Split Rock Wild Forest to Coon Mountain and the forests beyond. So if the Lewis property had been developed into houses or cleared of its trees, it would have seriously hindered wildlife movement and led to loss of species at these preserves.

“We thank the Lewis Family Farm for contacting us when they considered selling these tracts,” said Maron. “We also thank Open Space Institute, Northeast Wilderness Trust, The Nature Conservancy, Adirondack Land Trust, Eddy Foundation, and the State of New York for protecting other key properties in the Split Rock Wildway and for articulating the importance of conserving habitat connectivity.”

“We are especially pleased with this acquisition because it secures public access to these two properties,” CATS board chair, Katharine Preston, said. “We look forward to when people can hike or ski from Coon Mountain to Split Rock Wild Forest and then

Budget sub-committee discusses sale of Essex County fairgrounds

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com WESTPORT — While plans for the 165th annual Essex County Fair are well into the works, the fate of future fairs may be up to the Essex County budget committee.

Westport Supervisor Daniel Connell reported to members of the fair board last week that the budget committee had decided to recommend that the county sell the fairgrounds, with the option of a $1 sale to the town of Westport, where the grounds are located, or Agricultural Society not being an option.

On March 11, Connell said he was told oth-

erwise during a county fairgrounds subcommittee meeting.

"At the budget meeting, it seemed clear to me that we were not going to own the fairgrounds as of January 2014," Connell said.

"Now, it seems that may not be the case."

Budget committee chairman David Blades said that the fairgrounds was a topic of conversation at the last meeting.

"That may be a possible option, but I do not know if it is going to be a viable option," Blades said. "We are going to look at every available possibility to save the county taxpayers and that is what we are doing right now is just looking. Nothing is set in stone.

It is all up in the air right now."

Blades said that another factor in any sale of the fairgrounds is any restrictions that may be part of the deeds to the property.

"Dan Manning is going to be looking at the deeds," he said.

Connell said that the fairgrounds consisted of two properties that included the grounds and the Cornell Cooperative Extension building.

"The two deeds are kind of intertwined," Connell said. "The county has always maintained ownership of the grounds, but the lease between the county and the Agricultural Society has gone back and forth. I have been part of this for 40 years and have gone through two lease agreements between the

CFES raffle helps fund mission of getting youth to college ESSEX — Having put 100,000 underserved youth on the college path, College For Every Student (CFES), a national nonprofit that helps low-income students get to and through college, is on a path of its own – to double the number of North Country students served by September 2013.

“Every year dozens of schools reach out to CFES, wanting to ensure a brighter future for their students,” said CFES President and CEO Rick Dalton.“Yet limited funding forces us to deny thousands of deserving children the opportunity to benefit from the services and support CFES provides.”

CFES intends to add 10 new schools in Essex, Clinton, Franklin, and St. Lawrence counties.

As the only national nonprofit that works with both rural and urban youth, CFES has created a raffle to help generate the funding for these schools.

“Businesses, as well as friends of CFES, have been extremely generous,” said Dalton of the raffle prize donations. “Already we have 30 prizes, ranging in value from $400 to $4,000.”

Featured prizes include weeklong stays on Florida’s St. Joseph Bay, Southport Island on the Maine coast, and Lake Placid’s Mirror Lake in upstate New York.

“The raffle drawing is unique in that it allows ticket holders the ability to rank their top prizes,” said Essex resident George Davis. “Unlike the lotto, it makes me feel like I have some control over the process.”

Each raffle ticket costs $100 and 100 percent of every dollar raised will go directly to students in America’s neediest communities.

“The $100-per-ticket-cost reflects the funding needed to support a year of programming for one student,” Dalton explained. “And if that isn’t incentive enough to buy a ticket, the incredible prizes should be!”

Tickets can be purchased through the CFES office in Essex, New York, by calling 963-4500. For more information and a complete listing of prizes, visit collegefes.org.

Swine night set at Ward Lumber JAY — Ward Lumber is hosting a free Swine Night at their Jay Store location on Tuesday, March 26 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. for anyone who is interested in raising pigs.

two sides."

Connell said that the agreements have varied from the Agricultural Society leasing the grounds for an entire year to the current lease, which runs only for the week of the fair.

However, Connell said that society gives a lot more to the county when it comes to the grounds than just a rent check.

"The society has put thousands of dollars into the infrastructure of those grounds," he said. "But all of that work and money put into improving the fairgrounds is something that does not show up as a revenue in the county budget."

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County officials are most pleased with Governor Cuomo’s recent announcement of the Connect New York Grants. Of the 25 million allocated throughout the state, $557,000 will go to expand broadband service to areas of Jay and Wilmington.

The project is a private/public partnership with charter communications who is the licensed franchised cable television operator for Jay and Wilmington. The broadband expansion will include building 27 miles of extension to the Charter Communications 750 mhz hybrid fiber-coax network to the unserved areas of Ausable Acres in the Town of Jay and Lenny Preston Road in the Town of Wilmington.

The purpose of the grant initiatives is to bring last mile, high speed internet access to everyone in the state. Many times, last mile construction is not constructed due to the cost of providing the service. However, recent initiatives by the state to improve the economy in rural areas has recognized the importance of bringing broadband to these communities and leveling the playing field.

Town of Jay Supervisor Randy Douglas has been working on the broadband expansion since taking office in 2004.

“I couldn’t be more pleased of the Governor ’s announcement to bring broadband to Ausable Acres,” he said. “It is something that I have personally worked on for a very long time. It makes our area a more attractive place to live, work and play. We received over 30 letters of support from residents when writing the application. I feel that their overwhelming support helped lead to a successful application.”

“We are very happy with being awarded the grant which will help residents who telecommute and own small businesses in their homes,” Supervisor Randy Preston of the Town of Wilmington said.

“This was truly a team effort, Garrett Dague of the Community Resources Office and Tom Cohan of Charter Communications provided the lion’s share of the work in developing the application,” Community Resources Director Michael Mascarenas said. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome and appreciate the support we received from the North Country Economic Development Council.”

Pre-season market trainings set WESTPORT — Cornell Cooperative Extension’s pre-season Market Trainings are coming up. Sessions will be offered in Clinton/Essex County Saturday, March 16 at the Ausable Valley Grange, 1749 Main Street in Keeseville, 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

AuSable Valley Lady Patriots are Final Four bound!

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE — At the beginning of their practice March 11, Roger Long put the accomplishments of his AuSable Valley Lady Patriots basketball team into perspective.

"You are one of only four teams left out of 156 Class C schools in the state," he told his team. "There are only 20 teams playing basketball this weekend out of 750 schools throughout the state. Everyone is going to be really good at this level."

Indeed, that includes the Lady Patriots (19-2), who proved just how good they were when they scored a 48-43 victory over topranked and defending state champion Hoosic Valley March 9.

"Our philosophy is that you are not going to shut down a scorer, but you have to be able to shut the players down around that scorer," Long said about the game plan against the Indians.

The plan worked as Cassidy Chapko scored 29 points, more than half of her team’s total offense, as the rest of the Indians squad was held to 14 points.

"We were able to shut down the MVP of the Section II playoffs," Long said about Kim Kocienski, who did not score in the game.

For the Patriots, Logan Snow led the team with 20 points, including seven straight during a key 9-0 run in the second period.

"There is no question that she stepped up for us," Long said. "She took advantage of the spacing on the floor and made some difficult shots that ignited our run."

Meghan Strong added nine points, while Taylor Saltus scored seven, Madison Rondeau six, Madison McCabe three, Sierra Snow two and Haley Taylor one.

Long said that he was pleased his team was able to win and advance to the state final four, where they will play Section V's Bishop Kearney Saturday, March 16, at 2:15 p.m. at Hudson Valley Community College in Troy.

"I am extremely proud of the girls and the opportunity that has been put in front of them," Long said. "It is a trip that I will be able to enjoy through them. They deserve to be here."

Long said that the week of preparation started out Monday, March 11, dealing with things like media requests and paperwork required by the state.

"We have had to deal with paperwork, hotel plans, bus scheduling, roster forms, setting up practice times and everything else that we need to be ready for when we get down there," Long said. "The rest of the week is about working on the things we need to do based on the personnel that we are going to see."

Jamming for a cause at the Upper Jay Arts Center with Athena Pepe

By Shaun Kittle

shaun@denpubs.com UPPER JAY — Athena Pepe went to Nairobi, Africa, when she was just 10 years old.

Her mother brought her there to do volunteer work at an orphange where a lot of the children’s parents had died from AIDS. She left with a sense of purpose, the importance of helping others had become clear, and the memories of the living conditions made her want to do more.

“What I saw was extreme poverty,” Pepe said.

“There were little kids walking miles and miles to get water they had to strain the mud out of for their families.”

That was almost 10 years ago.

Today, Pepe is a senior at Keene Central School.

When it came time for Pepe to do her senior legacy project—a project that gets students to leave a legacy by helping others—her thoughts went back to Nairobi.

She remembered a presentation Keela Grimmette, founder and executive director of Reason 2 Smile in Lake Placid, gave at her school a couple years ago.

Pepe learned that the non-profit organization focuses on helping kids in developing countries, specifically orphaned and at-risk children.

So she contacted Grimmette, and devised a

way to help.

On Sunday, March 17, from 2 to 6 p.m., January Jams will return to the Upper Jay Arts Center, but this time, it’s for a cause.

There is a $5 suggested donation, with all proceeds going toward Reason 2 Smile.

Musicians of all skill levels can sign up and perform and, halfway through the event, Grimmette will give a presentation to explain what Reason 2 Smile is all about.

“I think in order to appreciate what you do have, it’s important to see what other people don’t have,” Pepe said. “Even if people can’t give much money, I think it would be good to see her presentation anyway, just to know.”

Grimmette started Reason 2 Smile in 2007, shortly after volunteering at Jambo Jipya school in Mtwapa, a fishing village located in Kenya, Africa.

Like Pepe, the experience left her with memories that inspired her to take action.

“She (Pepe) has a real personal connection to that country,” Grimmette said. “She said she was very excited to soak things up, which was interesting for me to hear—for a kid that young to have experiences like that.”

In Kenya there are free public schools, but children must have a school uniform and books to attend, requirements many families simply cannot afford.

A Kenyan woman named Christine Mwende began helping local families send their children

to school, but soon realized that she could help a lot more people by opening her own school.

In 2004, Jambo Jipya was created. The school provides everything for the kids—school uniform, shoes, supplies, two meals a day and health care.

Grimmette taught first graders there for 10 weeks in 2007, and realized that the school would have to close if it didn’t start receiving some funding.

“The biggest thing was, I developed a really close relationship with the kids in a very short period of time,” Grimmette said.

One of those relationships was with a little boy who lived in a mud hut with his brother and grandmother, who made money producing and selling an illegal alcoholic drink to locals.

Grimmette would visit the family on the weekends, and never forgot what she saw there.

The hut had a mud floor and its roof was made of coconut branches and leaves. There was broken glass everywhere.

“If I could know it was just this family living like this, maybe I could wrap my head around it and move on,” Grimmette said. “But I know it’s not. As I’m driving I’m seeing more mud huts and little kids with hardly any clothes in, walking in bare feet, and I know this is happening to hundreds and thousands of kids.”

Grimmette couldn’t just walk away.

She now does a lot of presentations, telling stories and showing videos and photographs to

show others the conditions she witnessed first hand.

She encourages people to help others through Reason 2 Smile and informs them that, for $18 a month, they can cover all associated costs of education—food, health care, clothing and two meals a day—for a child.

The organization recently began helping another school in Nairobi, too, and also provides aid to an orphanage.

Once a year, Grimmette visits Africa to meet with the students and their teachers, and once a year she receives letters from the children whose lives she’s impacting.

“They realize that every little thing that is given to them is because someone else cares about them,” Grimmette said.

Looking forward, Grimmette also said there will be a World Music Festival at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts on May 4 to benefit Reason 2 Smile.

The all-ages event will include workshops, a Kenyan marketplace, and different kinds of dance and music from all over the world, including clogging, Irish step dance, zumba, African drumming and Yoga.

The UVM Topcats, an all-male acappella group, and the reggae band Robanic, from Saratoga Springs, will also perform.
