‘The Sound of Music’ directed by Matt Sorensen, who directed “Fiddler on the Roof” in 2009. He said he chose “The Sound of Music” because it’s such a well-loved classic.

“I think people really enjoy seeing community members in a setting like this,” said Sorensen.

“Plus, there are a lot of people who have a strong sentimental connection to the show, if only because they grew up with it.”

With music and lyrics by Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein II, “The Sound of Music” is indeed one of the most well-known musicals of all time. Songs such as “My Favorite Things,” “Do-Re-Mi,” “Climb Ev’ry Mountain,” and the musical’s title song have become standards.

“The Sound of Music” is based on the memoirs of Maria von Trapp. A postulant who proves too high-spirited for religious life, Maria, played by Heather Bickford, is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven children of a widowed naval Captain, played by Doug Lansing. Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart

of the stern Captain, and they marry.

Upon returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been invaded by the Nazis, who demand the Captain's immediate service in their navy. Through the guise of their performance in a music festival, the family is able to escape over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of World War II. The production is bolstered by the efforts of Kim Weems, the vocal music director, who also stars as Mother Abbess. Michela Boscette is in charge of choreography, Bonnie Brewer is head of lighting, and Jim Coe is stage manager.

A cast of nearly 50 people makes “The Sound of Music” one of the largest productions ever undertaken by CTP. “I think it’s neat that I have cast members who are five years old and cast members over 80 all in one show,” said Sorensen. “I like that a lot.”

Tickets for all performances are $15 for adults, $12 for students and seniors, and $10 for children age 12 and under. For more information, contact LPCA at 523-2512 or visit www.lpartscenter.org.

I would like to thank everyone for their sympathy, kindness and support in my time of need, due to the recent passing of my wife Marie E. Ori. With much gratitude, George Ori, Jr. 68061

M

ay is the month for one of our school’s annual traditions of having the Prom, where the students transform into very special people.

Happy to report that all went well this year, it is reported they had lots of fun and no mishaps. Congratulations to Courtney Blanchard crowned the Queen and John Pollock crowned the King. Hopeful that the school budget passed this past week, in comparison to other schools around us, it is a very fair budget.

The weather has turned warmer and this last weekend there were many out walking, biking, playing ball and just enjoying the nice weather. Happy to report that Theresa Gauthier, Joan Sloper, Catherine Bigelow, and Madeline Blanchard had a most enjoyable visit with June Lincoln, she is doing very well. Some of these same people are busy getting ready for the big yard sale and auction that will be held once again at the Willsboro Methodist Church June 26; they

Kyle Page • kmpage1217@charter.net

are accepting items for the sale. Have some items to donate? Call them at 963-7651.

Don’t be alarmed if you go past the Smith House this week in the evening hours and see all kinds of lights and activities, they are doing some major renovations that require them to work at closed hours and still allow the center to still see patients during the day. It was interesting to watch the felling of a very large tree in Joan Strong’s yard this past weekend. it was much too close to the house and needed to come down. I have noted that quite a few trees around town have been cut down this spring.

An apology to Kyle Jacques-Britton for not wishing you a big happy birthday on 5/7, hope you had a great day.

Happy Birthday to Andrea Robare 5/22, Rona Hams 5/24, Pat Lincoln 5/24, Sid Couchey 5/24, Arlene Mason 5/25, Daphine Benway 5/27, Ruth Owens 5/27, Tyler Bridge 5/27, Spencer Stafford Jr. 5/28.

T

alking to people in Keeseville, it is easy to find a clear duality concerning the town. As a long established community, the town is steeped in history.

The original sources of population, the lumber and iron trade, are long gone which creates a sense of identity loss. Things seem to come and go. The duality could be something of concern if it wasn’t for the absolute dedication of many of the residents. Many are clearly here to stay.

Taking a leisurely walk through the town on a Sunday, I am glad my still fairly newfound home is safe even with the split personality. It was in 1812 that Anderson Falls became Keeseville officially, and it is easy to find much from that time period. The cemetery next to Immaculate Conception Church is incredible with its history. The church itself is a testimony to the test of time as Father Poissant is happy to inform any one that the church is the third oldest in the Ogdensburg Diocese and the oldest still standing.

Walking through the downtown area, a casual observer can find many foundations to buildings using the stone distinctive to our community. Some houses, such as namesake Richard Keese III’s house, are entirely made of this stone that I believe came from the AuSable River, which runs through the center of town. Strolling down South AuSable Street, one can find a small building made of the stone next to a modern looking security company’s wooden structure. In the woods near this lies the broken remains of an old shed structure so old the wood has the burnt charcoal look of age with all sorts of brush and grass growing throughout it.

In just a couple of weeks I will be heralding the coming of the Methodist Church Festival, the library summer sale and the farmer’s market. While these are all worthy draws to the community, my Sunday stroll clearly shows we have a lot to offer now. We just need to keep a sharp eye out because the history is quietly all around us.

Speaking of lawn mowing, Amy would like to remind you to keep your blades sharp.

The cut grass has a neater appearance and the job gets done faster. Those truly devoted to their lawns will also want to check the tire pressure on their riding mowers, to insure a nice, even cut.

The annual Master Gardener plant swap will be held at the Cooperative Extension office by the fairgrounds in Westport this Saturday morning, the 22. Check-in is from 10 to 11 a.m. Avid gardeners can exchange perennial divisions as well as vegetable and herb seedlings, and get advice from master gardeners. No ditch lilies, please. For more information, call 962-4810.

on how to enroll your child in the Summer Program.

Have you noticed the beautiful artwork in the window of the building north of the bank?

This is due to Westport ArtWorks, a volunteer community service organization that's part of the Future of Westport campaign. They have work by five local artists already and hope to add more artwork to further enliven this otherwise empty storefront. Are you a local artist looking for some exposure? Contact Meredith Johnston at 962-4590 or Carolyn Vanderhoof at 962-2043 if you would like to add a piece of your art to the display.

Last summer I shared with readers some of my experiences in Firefighter 1, the basic course for new firefighters. I thought readers would be interested, and that writing about it might encourage new volunteers. Since then I've had the honor of being accepted onto the Ambulance Squad, and I'll be taking the EMT-Basic course at the Public Safety Building in Lewis this summer. As my training progresses, I'll share some of those experiences with you now and then, too.

hear that a little drizzle didn't stop the annual fishing contest held Mother's Day weekend at the Fish & Game Club this year. Despite the weather, attendance was strong with about 35 kids showing up to participate. Everyone had fun, caught lots of fish, and enjoyed hot dogs, chips and soda for lunch.

Cody Bennett caught a 19-inch trout, Matthew Severance caught a 18 1/2-inch trout, and four-year-old Allie DeZalia caught the largest in her division at 13 inches. Congratulations! Trophies, fishing poles, and other prizes were awarded, and every child went home with something.

Some of those young anglers will probably be enrolling in the Westport Youth Commission Summer Program, which is gearing up for when school's out, but the Youth Commission runs year-round and right now it needs adult volunteers to serve on it.

Neighbors borrowing ladders To the editor, My new girlfriend is is already causing me anxiety. Her name is Robin.

She moved in without permission and built a nest on top of my 8-foot wooden step ladder a few feet from my back door, rendering my ladder useless for a few months and forcing me to use another entrance to enter my home.

The other day someone show up at my place and, without my knowledge, removed a ladder from behind her ladder to look at a boat in my back yard. I was afraid she wouldn't come back.

Then, two days later, my neighbor borrowed another ladder from a different location, and when they returned it, they leaned it up against her ladder. Again, I

worried that she wouldn't come back. Then a couple of days after that, I saw a raven wandering around my driveway and marveled at the big bird.

The Raven flew up to my Robins nest looking for a free lunch. I ran out the door and shewed it away. Again, I worried my Robin wouldn't come back.

She did, however, return. The eggs have since hatched, and she is busy bringing food, and keeping the nest warm. A few weeks from now, hopefully, I'll get my ladder back and be able to use my door again.

Then my new girlfriend will fly away.

Close the Keeseville Civic Center? It’s not that simple The Elizabethtown Post, May 20, 1869 MORIAH--On Sunday night the Store of Mr. George T. McKenzie, in Moriah, was broken open and some clothing and other articles taken. The burglar effected an entrance by boring all around the lock with a two inch augur. Some of the property was found on B. F. Paige and that and other circumstances indicate that he is at least one of the culprits.

The store of Mr. Edgerly was also broken open one day last week, but we believe the burglars got but little plunder. These villainies are becoming very frequent.

The Essex County Republican May 20, 1897 MORIAH--Once more the pluck and perseverance of the Port Henry Union School Ball Team, has won us a victory. A victory gained against overwhelming odds. An unfair umpire, hard luck, and a gang of Ticonderoga “smarties,” all combined failed to scoop us. The Ti. boys apparently had it “all fixed up,” but, “the best laid plans o’ mice and men,” & c., and Ti. failed to win. After the game, the Ti. captain sent word to the hotel, where we stopped, that our supper would not be paid for unless we returned the ball, which we were entitled to keep, having fairly won the game. We claim the Ti. boys owe us an apology, and know they owe us $8.00 we had to pay for that supper. R. Harris was injured during practice, and Charles Flack, who happened to be on the ground, kindly consented to catch in his place.

H. Kidder was taken ill in the second inning and had to lay off, and O. A. Wolcott took his place in the box. That is all Ti. had to kick about except getting licked.

The Adirondack Record-Elizabethtown Post, May 20, 1937 CHESTERFIELD--Ausable Chasm, without question the outstanding scenic marvel of the northeast,

is now open for the season. Located on the famed international highway between Montreal and Albany, only one mile north of Keeseville, and easily accessible by ferry from Vermont, no other place on the North American Continent offers the tourist such a single attraction, where they can see “closeup” this truly wonderful work of nature. Over 100,000 people visited here last season and the management is looking forward to a still greater season this year. Among the first large groups scheduled to visit here this season is a large delegation of Canadians who are planning a trip thru the Chasm on May 24th, the Queen’s Birthday.

NORTH ELBA--Decision has been reserved by the Appellate Division, Third Department on the appeal of Harry Heckheimer of New York, for reversal of the judgment against him convicting him of second degree arson for the burning of his summer home at North Elba, February 12, 1933, in order to collect the insurance. Accused at the same time with Heckheimer, were Joseph Shea, Harry Bloodgood, and Eddie Powell, who were given their liberty after testifying for the people, while Heckheimer was sentenced May 21, 1935, to Clinton Prison for not less than one and one-half years nor more than three years. In his brief Heckheimer, a lawyer said: “Practically the entire case against Heckheimer was based on testimony of the other three defendants.

The people sought to prove that Heckheimer, while not participating in the actual setting of the fire, entered into an agreement with Joseph Shea to go to Lake Placid and set fire to the building.”

Heckheimer charged that the weight of the evidence as against any conviction and the district attorney’s summation contained such “improper, prejudicial and unwarranted comments” that it deprived him of a fair trial.

Mayor Meegan Rock and the two village trustees who supported the civic center closure have no plan, at least not one they’ve discussed in public, that includes putting the building in

By Matt Bosley the hands of an entity that will see that it’s used, cared for, and maybe even put back on the tax rolls.

Neither have they given much thought to the fate of the other organizations that have relied on the Keeseville Civic Center for so many years. It seems to me the village should have some responsibility to them, especially the Anderson Falls Heritage Society, which has put together an invaluable collection of Keeseville’s history. Surely the village could have worked collaboratively with these groups to develop a plan for their future.

Allowing the village to continue to own and operate the Keeseville Civic Center may be futile, but the decision to close it this fall seems ill conceived at best.

ew issues have divided the community of Keeseville lately like the village board’s recent decision to close the Keeseville Civic Center. Whatever your feelings on how the building should be used, it’s easy to understand why so many people are less than satisfied with the board’s decision.

On one hand, I have to applaud the decision.

Clearly the aging, inefficient building creates an unnecessary burden on taxpayers to heat and maintain. To continue its use under current arrangements is just not sustainable, and something has to change to conserve both the building and the financial resources of the village.

The presence of the village offices in the civic center has made the building ineligible for many grants that could have at least prevented it from falling into such disrepair. In the hands of some non-governmental agency, the building could potentially be better cared-for and receive more use, becoming even more of a boon to the community.

It makes a lot of sense for the village to get itself out from under the burden of the Keeseville Civic Center. What doesn’t make a lot of sense, however, is to do it without a plan.

It’s true closing the building this fall will save the village the thousands of dollars needed to heat it during the winter, but to simply close the building does little to ensure that it will not become an abandoned, disintegrating eyesore. Instead, it could likely suffer the same fate as the former Willsboro Central School building, which steadily deteriorated as it sat vacant for eight years before luckily being purchased by a developer at a nominal price.

estport School has a census of 274 students K-12. Though it is a small school, it is not small in talented teachers, accomplished students, sports excellence, and academic performance.

“There is an expectation of success here; I saw it on my first day,” said Building Principal Michele Friedman. “I cannot take any credit for that. I suspect that it is a long standing element of the school culture.”

“Westport offers a unique educational experience in that the school has succeeded in making the student body as responsible for the culture of success as any staff member is,” Friedman added. “We are intentional about involving everyone in helping students be successful. We instituted the ‘How Full is Your Bucket’ philosophy and involved instructional, non-instructional staff and students.”

Bucket references can be found posted around the school, including classrooms. A typical phrase might say, “Have you filled a bucket today?”

“We let everyone in the school know what we expect and we are very clear about those expectations,” said Friedman. “The net effect is that we spend less time focusing on negative behaviors and more time focusing on positive behaviors.”

According to Friedman, there are many opportunities for students to learn from each other. It is a common practice for older students to mentor younger children and, in doing so, pass along important school values.

High school teachers are also part of the mentoring experience.

“Teachers often use their lunch breaks or free periods to give students individual atBy Scot Hurlburt tention and support,” Friedman said. “Extraordinary effort from teachers is ordinary at Westport.”

Westport was one of two Essex County schools that were recognized nationally for their excellence last year. The school has had a 100-percent graduation rate over the last decade. The rate of students attending college and graduating from college is high. A quick walk through the school gymnasium, crowded with championship banners, will inform you of the success of their sports programs.

“Westport School is a community treasure and the community has recognized just how special the school is,” said Friedman.

There are many excellent schools in Essex County and Westport is one of them. Congratulations to the Westport School and community. Remember, all kids count.

In the Military LaBarge to take command of 109th Airlift Wing TUPPER LAKE — Tupper Lake resident Col. Timothy LaBarge, a 27-year veteran of the United States Air Force and the New York Air National Guard, with over 5,000 hours of flight time, has been tapped to become the commander of the 109th Airlift Wing.

LaBarge, a veteran of the 1991 Persian Gulf War, is currently serving as the Wing Vice Commander. He joined the New York Air National Guard in 1992. He has flown the giant C-5 Galaxy, the C-103 Hercules and the ski-equipped LC-130's operated only by the 109th Airlift Wing to support missions in the Arctic and Antarctic.

The 109th Airlift Wing is headquartered at Stratton Air National Guard Base in Scotia, near Schenectady.

Corrections There was some misinformation in the May 15 edition of the Valley News in the article on Farmers’ Markets. The Paul Smith’s Farmers’ Market Manager is Paul Moriarty, who can be reached at 637-2377.

Also, the article referencing the track meet between Saranac Lake and EKMW incorrectly stated that Kyle VanBuren had won the 3,200-meter race for EKMW. The win actually went to Jack Newberry of EKMW, who remains undefeated in the event this season.

Airborne Speedway features man racing car against cancer jeremiah@denpubs.com SOUTH PLATTSBURGH — Chad Blair is back behind the wheel.

The 35-year-old Saranac man and Gouverneur native has returned to racing after a four-year hiatus and he’s got a good reason — to honor his mother and help the American Cancer Society. Blair ’s mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time in nearly a decade, prompting him to partner with longtime friend Wayne Porter to fight what has long been an incurable disease.

The two have been working together for the past six months to build a car for Blair to race at Airborne Speedway. The car — which was debuted at the track’s May 1 opener — was built and painted pink with one purpose in mind — to raise awareness of cancer and raise money for cancer research.

“When I found out my mom had cancer, I thought it was just the time to do it,” Blair said of getting back into racing.

“It made me think that you only live once and if you can do it, do it.”

Blair, who owns High Voltage Fabrications, and Porter, who owns Precision Auto and Collision, have backed Blair ’s participation with their own businesses and gotten several other sponsors for the car as well. In addition, the two have helped coordinate various fundraising events featuring appearances with the car in the hopes of attracting more donations for cancer research.

“Wayne’s really the driving force behind all the fundraisers,” said Blair, who noted bottle and coin drives have been

BECAUSE IT WORKS

among the events in which the two have participated. “It’s really important for us to raise money [for the American Cancer Society] because I’ve got to believe that we’re 10 to 15 years away from finding out what causes these cancers and finding a cure for them.”

Blair said that’s because he’s already seen how far cancer treatments have come in the last 10 years.

“There are way more things that can be done for people who have cancer now than could before,” he said. “So, any money we can raise for them for research and things like that will make a difference.”

Ideally, the winnings Blair hopes to make from his races, when paired with donations received from other community events he’s involved in, will make a major impact on local efforts to raise money for ACS, he said.

“We’re hoping to raise a lot of money for them by the end of the year,” said Blair.

“I’d love for us to be able to raise $25,000 before the end of season,” said Porter. “That’s my personal goal.”

The two feel that’s an attainable goal based on how cancer is a common enemy for many people, said Porter.

“Cancer effects everybody. I lost my aunt to pancreatic cancer,” he said. “And what’s worse is more and more younger people are even dying from it. We need to find a way for more people to survive.”

Precision Auto and Collision, located at 1438 Military Turnpike, will host a car wash this Saturday, May 22, as another event featuring Blair ’s increasingly popular pink race car. The event will be held from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., with the car on display until 1 p.m.

Students explore nature at Environmental Field Days

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com WESTPORT — Students in schools across Essex County recently had an opportunity to learn about the natural world from local people who work with it on a daily basis.

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Essex County’s 4-H Program, together with the Essex County Soil and Water District, held its Environmental Field Days May 18 and 20 at the Essex County Fairgrounds.

About 300 students in grades five and six from Westport, Moriah, Crown Point, Elizabethtown-Lewis, Willsboro, Keene, Schroon Lake, and Minerva school districts participated in the annual event that brings in local experts in Environmental Science for a day of fun-filled learning.

4-H resource educator Linda Gilliland said the program’s goal is to spark the students’ interest in Environmental Science and raise awareness of environmental issues.

Several local volunteers came to present

and teach, including meteorologist Gib Brown, DEC forestry specialist Tate Connor, and NRCS soil scientist Jerry Smith.

A new addition this year was Adirondack Wildlife Rehabilitation’s Wendy Hall, who discussed the basics of her work with a presentation of live birds of prey.

“There are so many different directions you can go in Environmental Science,” said Essex County Soil and Water District’s Dave Reckahn, noting how the program gives students a taste of many careers that are prevalent in the area.

Students were also exposed to lessons in tree planting, water ecosystems, energy use, and plant science.

“It’s awesome,” said ELCS fifth grader Sedona Fogelsanger, noting how Environmental Field Days exposed her to several new ideas such as different plant and animal species and how foresters can use a stick to estimate a tree’s height from a distance. “It’s really fun.”

ELCS students lead Envirothon winners

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com PAUL SMITHS — A group of students from Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School have set the bar for area schools at one of the region’s largest academic competitions.

The team of Alex Andrade, Ben Goff, Tara Pratt, Josh Pierce and Zach Denton scored highest overall at the North Adirondack Regional Envirothon, held May 13 at Paul Smith’s College.

The ELCS team is the first from the school to take first place among schools in Essex County and the first ever from Essex County to be named overall winner since the competition began in 1998.

Twenty-eight, five-member teams from 20 schools in Clinton, Essex, Franklin, and St. Lawrence Counties competed in the test of New York’s natural resources.

“It’s basically to try to get the environmental awareness at the high school level,” said Dave Reckahn from Essex County Soil and Water District, “and it sometimes promotes them to studying environmental science or environmental careers.”

The event is sponsored by Soil and Water Districts from the four counties, the New York Power Authority, Paul Smith’s College, and several other organizations.

said the college is thrilled to host the event.

“We look at it as the best and brightest of students in the region with an interest in the outdoors and environmental sciences,” he said, noting the college’s strong focus on such subjects.

Teams competed in an outdoor setting, answering questions in five categories: soil, forestry, wildlife, aquatics and current natural resources issues. ELCS scored highest in both aquatics and wildlife.

“We are super proud of each and every student that took place in this most valuable learning experience,” said ELCS principal Kenneth Hughes. “It thrills us to know that our students can take what they have learned in theory in the classroom and then apply it in practice at events such as this.”

Last year, Paul Smith’s College offered scholarships to students from the winning teams. According to DeAngelo, the college will consider any envirothon participant for a scholarship to study a related field at Paul Smith’s.

Science teacher Becky Bosley has coached the ELCS Envirothon team for the past five years and said the event helps motivate students to learn. Three members of this year ’s team have expressed a desire to someday work in the field of environmental science.

APA boathouse regulations stalled again

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Boathouses and balloons have something in common at the Adirondack Park Agency.

Both can keep expanding.

Attempts to regulate the size of boathouses stalled not once but twice Friday, as the APA Board of Commissioners could not agree on the appropriate allowable size of the traditionally exempt structure — or if a size limit is even appropriate at all.

Since last summer, the agency has sought to define a boathouse by capping square footage. The original proposal of 900 square feet and 15 feet maximum height, also containing a controversial prohibition of flat roofs, failed in March. Boathouses with rooftop decks are not uncommon on Lake George, as they are favored party spots.

Faced with a divided board Friday, state Empire State Development APA designee Jim Fayle said he had serious doubts about supporting the measure.

“I’m always bothered when I sit on boards and the boards themselves are so divided,” Fayle said. “That indicates to me that more work needs to be done and more discussion is needed.”

The newly-proposed 1,200 square foot definition stalled in a vote of five-five, with tiebreaker Commissioner Lani Ulrich absent.

But seeking to not have the issue on for another 12 months, APA Chairman Curt Stiles said he would entertain an amendment to increase the size limit.

Commissioner Bill Thomas of Johnsburg didn’t hesitate to oblige, proposing an amendment to increase the allowable size to 1,500 square feet.

And that’s when the floodgates opened.

Commissioner Art Lussi then offered his

own amendment to the regulation that would have increased the allowable height to 18 feet above its dock.

Visibly frustrated, Lussi didn’t hesitate to take a few shots at Chairman Stiles in the process.

“It’s very hard when I have an agency and a staff who is pushing this agenda because it’s creating so much work for them to interpret applications for proposals,” Lussi said.

“I find it very hard that our chairman would build a boathouse that doesn’t fit the regulations we’re proposing — I just don’t get it.”

Lussi is among several commissioners who argue the agency doesn’t have the legislative authority to impose arbitrary limits on structures exempt from shoreline setback regulations.

“When we do this proposal, we present it to the Legislature and we take their jobs away,” he said. “Then we review it ourselves, then we commissioners are the judge and jury of variance applications — It’s like being a dictatorship.”

With the personal attacks aired and the definition of a boathouse expanding faster than a balloon at a birthday party, Stiles voiced his opposition to the ad-hoc changes to the regulation.

“I think our process gets a little bit out of hand when we try to rewrite this thing with a ‘group crayon,’” Stiles said. “I think we have personalized this discussion to the point it is deleterious to the outcome. I think the vote, very clearly, should be to not approve this amendment and go back to committee.”

The amended version failed in a 4-6 vote, stalling the proposal once again and sending it back to committee.

Proponents of the size cap argued it will assure that the structures are being used only for the storage of boats and not other non-compliant uses.

Budget crisis threatens fire towers APA to consider alternatives

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — The state budget crisis could pose a threat to the fire towers atop Hurricane and St. Regis mountains, even as the Adirondack Park Agency considers ways to allow the historic structures to remain standing.

The APA Board of Commissioners’ State Land Committee decided unanimously May 13 to move forward with public hearings regarding potential classification alternatives that could allow the towers to stay.

But even if APA finds a solution to the problem in the coming months,the fire towers’ continued existence is anything but a sure bet — because the towers are the property of the state Department of Environmental Conservation, according to DEC Region 5 Chief Forester Tom Martin.

“The department has the care, custody and control of the Forest Preserve and the facilities on it,” he said. “At one time there were 52 towers in the park and for management reasons the department removed a bunch of them. “ He said that despite the fact towers are allowed in certain classifications, DEC removed them anyway.

Assuming the figures from Gov. David Pa-

terson’s executive budget remain unchanged, DEC is poised to lose over 30 percent of its funding, compared to the 2009-10 budget.

Over the last two years, the DEC’s budget allocation for supplies and contracting has plummeted 70 percent.

Both the Hurricane and St. Regis towers are in relative disrepair, and state officials estimate a single restoration could cost $50,000.

Continued maintenance costs would also be a likely expense.

And Martin said cost is surely an issue.

“The biggest concern today are the budget issues and the long-term implications of the costs of these things,” he said. “We would certainly look to private groups and local governments to assist us with tower restoration as they have with towers throughout the park.”

Various expenses associated with maintenance and repair are substantial, he said, noting that helicopters, employed to transport labor and supplies to the sites, cost $1,500 per hour to operate.

Several of the remaining fire towers in the Adirondacks do have friends groups and some contribute money and labor to the cause, but DEC officials caution that over the long-term, the state ends up footing much of the bill.

The three-pronged APA proposal, which is open for public comment, could see the footprints of the towers classified as either historic or primitive.

Under the primitive designation, the towers would not be restored and would not allow public access, but would remain at their current location.

However, if classified as historic, the state would carry a responsibility to restore and maintain the towers in working condition to allow public access.

The third option is no action at all, and would result in the removal of the towers in accordance with the state Land Master Plan.

APA Commissioner Dick Booth said that given the slumping economy, he would like to see a fourth option that wouldn’t require the state to make a financial commitment.

“We could put a postage stamp around a historic resource, recognize it’s there, the state would not commit resource to managing it,” Booth said. “It would become part of the Forest Preserve and eventually deteriorate back into the landscape.”

DEC has removed towers that were in compliance with a SLMP designation, citing the prohibitive cost of restoration or maintenance.

Over 85 percent of the public comment received this year by DEC, in written and oral form, expressed support of retaining the fire towers. Proponents of keeping the towers consider them an important part of the region’s cultural history. The opposition counters that they are in violation of the SLMP.

Former Essex residents Eddie Morgan and his father, Steve Morgan, pose in front of the Johnny Podres Room at Dodger Town in Vero Beach, Fla. Eddie, the head baseball coach for the Univeristy of Wisconsin Superior Yellow Jackets, was attending the facility during spring training in March. Podres, a native of Witherbee, N.Y., was a Major League pitcher who spent most of his career with the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers, helping the team to World Series wins in 1955, 1959, and 1963.

matt@denpubs.com WESTPORT — Trailing by five runs in the seventh inning, the Beagles found themselves one out away from a loss to Willsboro, but refused to give up hope as they rallied for a 10-9 win in MVAC baseball May 12.

“These kids did not want to lose,” said assistant coach Craig Russell.

“They told me, ‘Coach, we want to win this game; we’re not going to lose this game.’”

Senior Luke Andrews drove in the winning run as Westport/Keene put together six straight hits to score six runs in the bottom of the seventh in a stunning come-from-behind victory.

“This is a team of nine solid hitters,” said co-head coach Chris Markwica. “They can score as many runs as they want when they swing the bat well.”

The Warriors jumped out to an early 2-0 lead with back-to-back first-inning doubles by Clayton Cross and Lucas Strong.

James Bell came on to pitch for Westport/Keene in the second and fought his way out of a no-out, bases-loaded situation, going on to strike out seven through five innings. The Beavers would build their own two-run lead using effective sacrifice hitting. Sam Earl finished with three RBI. Willsboro would battle back, however, loading the bases again in the sixth on their way to a three-run lead. They would score two more in the seventh with a triple by Nick Ball down the right field line and a double to right by Justin Drinkwine, who went 4-for-5 in the game.

“My kids did really well today,” said Willsboro head coach Andy Lee. “I’m proud of they way they got down by a couple runs but they

“They played good defense and they hit the ball well,” said Markwica of Willsboro. “They made every defensive play they had to make.”

Cody Whitney reached base on a fielder ’s choice in the bottom of the seventh, leaving the Beagles with two outs and one man on base.

“I knew [Westport/Keene] was not just going to lay down,” said Lee. “I was hoping we could hold them to one or maybe two runs.”

But the Beagles played with nothing to lose in their last regular season game. Kevin Russell lined a double into right feild, bringing Whitney home. Sam Earl and Dylan Boyle each singled and Bell hit a two-run double that put the tying run in scor-

Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.

ccording to the federal government, more than 38 million Americans hunt and fish annually. More Americans hunt and fish than play golf and tennis combined.

Nearly five percent of the U.S. populations, about 12.5 million people, are active hunters. Whitetail deer remain the most popular big game species, with nearly 78 percent of all hunting activity targeting whitetails.

The average hunter spends $1,638 every year on the sport.

According to research, 72 percent more women are hunting with firearms today than just five years ago. And 50 percent more women are now target shooting. Combined, Americans hunt 228 million days per year and sales of hunting gear are growing faster than all other segments of the sporting goods industry.

More than 44 million Americans enjoy fishing every year and the average angler spends more than $1,000 annually on the sport.

Over one quarter of all anglers are female and largemouth bass remain the most popular species of freshwater fish, with nearly 60 percent of fishing activity targeting largemouth.
