ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ A new website is promoting the trails, roads and parks in the North Country as a great place to Ò Get Out and Live.Ó The website, getoutandlivenorthcountry.org, was created by a partnership of organizations working to get more people walking and biking in the North Country. The group includes Creating Healthy Places, the North Country Healthy Heart Network, the St. Lawrence County Health Initiative and the Essex County Department of Public Health. Ò We are looking for people to go online and enter a story and a picture of themselves talking about why you like

Buehler also said the department had a new tool in helping people find recreation areas throughout the park in the form of a map created with the help of local author Sheri Amsel. Ò People really like the map and the places they are able to find with it,Ó she said.

Lacrosse tournament runs through weekend in Lake Placid Supplied by Casey Vock

LAKE PLACID Ñ The 24th annual Lake Placid Summit Lacrosse Tournament kicked off Monday morning, Aug. 5, with play in the youth divisions getting underway and thousands of lacrosse players and fans already making their way to the Olympic Region for the summerÕ s most anticipated lacrosse event.

Sponsored by Warrior and Brine, this yearÕ s Summit Classic features several new divisions, including the Girls 2017-2018 bracket in the scholastic divisions.

In total, 224 teams will be on hand to compete in this yearÕ s Summit Classic, according to tournament founder George Leveille.

Ò WeÕ ve got 18 different divisions of play, ranging from 15 and under boys and girls to 60 and over menÕ s divisions,Ó Leveille said. Ò So itÕ s quite a diverse group. Many of our teams and players have been here for many years.

WeÕ re very fortunate that very few teams donÕ t come back. So itÕ s become a collection of friends and people who share a love for the sport and this great area.Ó Leveille that the Lake Placid Summit Classic, which started in 1990 with about 10 teams, has grown to become a draw for lacrosse players and families from across the continent. Ò WeÕ ve got players from all over the country,Ó Leveille said. Ò Teams range from Florida to Kansas and Missouri in the midwest, weÕ ve

The cost for the hike and lunch is $75 per participant.

Sorry, no dogs on this hike.

Elizabeth will introduce forest communities at Cheney Mountain and point out animal sign and native plants.

Great views look north up the

lake, west toward the High Peaks, and south to Lake Champlain and Champlain Bridge. A special trail lunch will be provided by High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care.

Participants should meet at the Trailhead on south side of Pelfershire Road. Look for Cheney Mountain Hike signs.

got Canadians, folks from all over the place. É WeÕ ve got geographic diversity.Ó Though itÕ s become family oriented in many ways, Leveille added that the Lake Placid Summit Classic also draws many of lacrosseÕ s most elite players from various levels to compete, especially in the adult divisions. Ò We have 17 college alumni programs that play here in the latter part of the week, and that includes Syracuse and Johns Hopkins, some of the most decorated programs, as well as Cornell, Princeton, Dartmouth and many others schools. So thatÕ s another element that has added to the family dynamic, with people coming here as college alumni to play lacrosse but bringing their families.Ó

The event features a new scholastic girls division for players in the high school classes of 2017 and 2018. Six teams comprise the first ever girls division: the Outlaw Ladies (from Central New York), Bethlem (from New YorkÕ s Capital Region), the Lady Eagles from Long Island, the Dazzling Divas (also from Long Island) and two Star Riders squads, Star Riders Red and Star Riders Blue, made up girls from Central New York, the Southern Tier and beyond.

North Country Volunteer Center set to hold recruitment workshop Aug. 29

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ One of the most valuable resources of a community is its volunteers helping to sustain programs that enrich the lives of residents. To harness that energy, the North Country Regional Volunteer Center (NCVC) will host an educational event for organizations to learn how to reach potential volunteers through an online data base on Aug. 29.

NCVC, operated by the United Way of the Adirondack Region (UWAR), will host the training event at the Plattsburgh City Library, 19 Oak Street, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. During the training, participants will learn how to create organizational profiles that illustrate the work of the organization and the desires of its volunteers, said UWAR Director of Development, Kathy Snow.

During the event, officials of NCVC will be shown how their website can be used as a tool for recruiting volun-

teers. The NCVC website, www.northcountryvolunteer. org, was launched in June 2012. The NCVC and the website were started thanks to a grant awarded by the State Commission on National Community Service three years ago, Snow said.

The online volunteer resource center serves Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Jefferson, Lewis, and St. Lawrence Counties.

Snow said the website is a mutually beneficial tool for organizations in need of help and residents looking for a place to help their community. The site can match people with a passion for helping to where they can do the most good. Ò Volunteers can go to the site and type into the keywords, Ô Driver,Õ Ô Animals,Õ Ô YouthÕ or Ô ElderlyÕ and be matched with an organization doing something they are passionate about and where they can really help,Ó said Snow. Ò ItÕ s really good to give back, a lot of people generally donÕ t have the money they might want to

give but time is free and can be the most valuable gift someone can offer.Ó The site also registers volunteers and in the session the groups will be shown how to log their volunteer Õ s hours to be run in reports. Ò The grant program was originally launched after a report came out that New York ranked 51st (last) in volunteerism, I donÕ t think that could be true based on our communityÕ s volunteer numbers,Ó Snow said. Ò Through the data base we can teach the different groups how to keep track of the number of volunteers and volunteer hours theyÕ ve accumulated, which can help them when applying for grants.Ó During the session, guests will have the opportunity to get step-by-step instructions using the libraryÕ s computers to register on the website. Ò Our website has been up a year, we are going to show the people who come to the event how to create their online profile and explain their volunteer needs in a creative way,Ó said Snow. Ò WeÕ re like

a matchmaker for agencies that are in desperate need and volunteers that want to help.Ó The training event is open to community organizations, agencies, potential volunteers and veteran volunteers and municipalities. Included in the training will be a focus on recruitment, orienting, supporting, evaluating and saluting (ROSES) volunteers.

Snow said with state budget cuts many not-for-profits are having to do more work with less people. Ò Volunteers are very valuable, especially now,Ó Snow said. Ò These agencies need help and people can find something matching their passions and values on the site.Ó There will be a free lunch served while discussing the volunteer data base and volunteer recruitment strategies.

Those interested in participating in the program are asked to register for the training by Aug. 26, by calling the UWAR at 563-0028 or email Kathy Snow (Kathy@ unitedwayadk.org).

Wild Character Snake, Rattle and Roll The Timber Rattlesnake is the Adirondack Park’s only poisonous snake. For a viper, it’s pretty laid back. The rocky highlands above Lake Champlain are the northern extreme of its range, which dips to the Gulf Coast of Texas. Here, it sleeps in, coming out around May, a month after its southern cousins. It stays sleepy for a while, then eventually orders rodents, smaller snakes and amphibians for dinner. Timber rattlers rarely strike at a person unless cornered and usually issue several warning rattles. www.exploringnature.org There are no recorded deaths from wild rattlesnake bites in the Adirondacks. Still an Endangered Species, it’s illegal to harm one, so don’t even think about it. Another reason we’re so...

SARANAC LAKE Ñ The Adirondack Center for Writing received $2,000 from International Paper to publish chapbooks of writing by adult literacy students participating in the Adirondack All Write! Program.

The Adirondack Center for Writing worked with the New York City institution, Symphony Space, to bring their All Write! literacy program to the North Country.

In the spirit of Symphony SpaceÕ s legendary ÒS elected ShortsÓ program, aired on most National Public Radio stations where famous actors do dramatic readings of works of literature, All Write! works with literacy students to improve their writing skills, emphasizing that literacy is

not only about learning to read but about discovering and writing about the world around us.

Students were encouraged to submit their creative work, which was developed over a series of months in their classes using curriculum materials provided by the All Write! program and by the Adirondack Center for Writing. Some of those pieces written by literacy students were read on June 6 during a live performance in Plattsburgh by actors brought up from New York City. More than 170 attended this event at the Strand Theater.

All pieces submitted by students were published in a gorgeous chapbook, funded by International Paper.

County fairs an important part of summer

T

he North Country is now in the midst of the annual tradition that is all about fried dough, Ferris wheels and derby

cars.

Counties throughout the state are holding their annual county fairs and festivals throughout the months of July and August.

Clinton County and Essex County have already wrapped up their shows for 2013, while Franklin County and Addison County, Vt., run through this weekend and the Washington County Fair kicks in on Aug. 19 and runs through Aug. 25.

For many communities, the county fair represents the peak of summer activities. The provide a chance for people to come together on an annual basis and provides a chance for young and old to show their crafts and promote their passions. It gives families a less expensive option when it comes to providing entertainment like rides and shows for their children then one might find at other theme parks in the region.

Most of the fairs here continue to focus on the world of agriculture, which is making a strong comeback. The world of the local farmer has experienced a renaissance of sorts during the past 10 years, and while there are still plenty of dairy farms with cattle to show and display, local produce farms are also given a county-wide stage to show and sell what they harvest.

4-H and Future FarmerÕ s of America organizations build their entire year around the one week every year that they have to shine at the county fair. Whether it is through competition like horse and cattle shows or displaying what they were able to do as a group, the county fair is the biggest stage that they may have the entire year. Most also conduct a major portion of their fundraising at fairs through raffles and dairy stands, selling milk, ice cream and more to help fair-goers beat the summer heat.

Fairs have also become a stage for local talent. From daily concerts for bands and performers, Ò living the dream,Ó to talent search competitions for all ages, fairs give kids and adults alike a chance to step into the spotlight in a fun and family-friendly arena.

• Letters can be sent to its offices, 14 Hand Avenue, PO Box 338, Elizabethtown, 12932 or e-mailed to johng@denpubs. com • Letters can also be submitted online at

At the same time, we would be remiss if we did not take a moment to thank all of those who make these events possible. A lot of times, all fair boards and fair leaders hear is negativity, but we want to commend them for the work they do. While the lay person only sees what happens the couple days before the fair opens through the few days past closing, members of local fair boards and agricultural societies start planning for their week of events almost as soon as the gates close. In Essex County, organizers were talking about midway and fair date options for 2014 two days before the 2013 fair ended.

It’s a lot of hard work to find the perfect fit of carnival, entertainment and attractions at the right price, and it seems the only time anyone speaks up is when — in their opinion — that fit is not right.

Not us. We want to thank you all for making the summer a little more fun for everyone at prices that are much more reasonable then any other venues can offer. Your hard work and dedication to your county and those you serve is sincerely appreciated.

We canÕ t let this editorial end without a quick word out to the Essex County Board of Supervisors. WeÕ ve heard the rumblings about shuttering the 165-year-old fair and they are quite concerning. The Essex County Fair is vital to the core of what makes Essex County a rich tradition of agriculture and conservation. Many people have sacrificed hours, blood, sweat and personal funds to make the fairgrounds and fair what it is today. ItÕ s a tradition that needs to be embraced, not used as a political chip. It should be an event organizations like the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) promote and support financially as it is part of the region they represent as the county tourism advocate.

Let us speak for many who would tell you, we want this fair, we need this fair.

So to all, get out and enjoy some time at the fair Ñ any fair Ñ and thank those who work so hard to make them possible. Ñ

Get out and stay out, in the woods

There are precious few beds that are as comfortable as the floor of a tent camp on a cool summer’s night.

M

y parents were campers. I expect it was quite a chore for them to accomplish a tent camping expedition with the addition of five active kids.

I guess they really enjoyed it, because I know the kids sure did. Our family did a lot of tent camping, but as my mother got older, she finally decided to purchase a small tow behind camping trailer.

She was in her mid-50s at the time, and I guess she wanted something more comfortable than sleeping on the hard, cold ground.

Or maybe she just got tired of DadÕ s feeble attempts to set up a tent.

Although he spent a lot of time in camp, both as an educator and a counselor, my father did not have good relations with tents. In fact, if my father even looked at a tent with lines drawn taunt, it would droop instantly, and hopelessly.

While poking around through some of our old family albums last weekend, I discovered old photos of Mom and Dad while they were camping in Yosemite National Park, in the early 1950s.

There was even a shot of my father, feeding deer out the window of his car, and others of bears climbing on the fenders of touristÕ s cars.

The 50s and 60s were popular years for campers, as the mobility afforded by the automobile provided many travelers with instant vacations. The two decades brought Yogi Bear and Jellystone Park to tens of thousands of traveling campers in real life.

The 70s ushered in the era of lightweight materials, and the backpacking craze introduced another whole generation to the lay of the land. Kelty framepacks and lightweight tents, were matched with down sleeping bags and single burner, Svea stoves to cut the weight of a full pack in half. Of course, the advent of lightweight equipment meant there was much more food that could be carried, and we packed it all in.

IÕ ve often wondered what is the real attraction of camping. Why do people really go to someplace wildly different from home, to sleep on the hard ground while insects buzz about the windows while daring them to step outside. Is there a good reason for giving up a

soft bed and a real toilet, in order to sleep with a root under your back and a tent full of snoring bikers parked within hearing range?

Most campers have their reasons, and theyÕ re usually glad to share them with anyone who will listen. Ò Yeah,Ó theyÕ ll tell you, Ò we just wanted to get away from it all, and get a little peace and quiet by spending some time alone away from home.Ó Human beings are an incredibly curious species. We are all born with an innate sense of discovery, which typically results in an inexplicable need to explore our environment.

Why do they do it? What is it that causes more than 150 million Americans every year to walk out the front door and go hiking, rock climbing, bird-watching, mountain biking, paddling or fishing?

Perhaps itÕ s because camping and outdoor travel reduces our needs to a minimum. Routine chores such as getting the water, collecting the wood or starting the fire become more interesting, just because it has to be done.

There are also the simple survival contingencies that foster bonds of interdependency among all the participants. Teamwork comes easily, and the ability to enjoy the inter-reliance of the group is a key function of the camping experience. Oddly, teamwork often happens without any system of order, campers just seem to know how to take care of each other. It is instinctual, after all.

Our species spent tens of thousands of years living in the wild, and modern man has only been around for a small fraction of that time.

WeÕ ve spent less than 2 percent of our time on earth functioning as members of a Ô civilized society.Õ We go outdoors to see the stars and stare at the fire and to hear the night sounds. We don’t actually go there to Ô get away from it allÕ we go because we have an inner need to be outdoors, and to foster a reconnection with the earth. We may all be part of a civilized society, but individually we are a part of the pack. We arenÕ t seeking to get away permanently, we just want to get back to a time and place where we were once very comfortable.

We have an undeniable urge to feel the cool breeze, and to experience the hard ground. We need tall trees surrounding us and to see the dark skies above. We need to wake with the birds, and feel the morning chill at the dawn of a new day. We go out there to recapture our past and to rediscover a piece of ourselves. We all need a little reassurance that we are still wild at heart. It is to be found when we make contact with the hard ground, or as we listen to the loons on the lake, the wind in the trees of the waves splashing on the rocks. Our ancestors spent the majority of their time living in such conditions, and we continue to seek just a small taste of what it must have been like. We all have a need to be wild again, if only for a while. It is in our blood.

If you havenÕ t been back to camp yet this year, there is still plenty of time. However, the big yellow school buses will be back on the road in less than a monthÕ s time. Have you spent any time in camp yet this year? Have your kids or grandkids watched the stars, or seen their reflection in the still waters of a black lake? I know there will always be time; but truly thereÕ s no better time than the present. Ò When man ventures into the wilderness, climbs the ridges, and sleeps in the forest, he comes in close communion with his Creator.

When man pits himself against the mountain, he taps inner springs of his strength. He comes to know himself.Ó Supreme Court Justice, William O. Douglas

I

t has been said that those who attend the meetings make the laws, those that donÕ t, get to obey them, whether you like it or not. In our country, citizens have the right to protest unjust laws, thatÕ s a First Amendment

By Rich Redman right.

Every county in New York State except New York City, Long Island, Tompkins and Albany have passed a resolution to oppose or repeal the NYS SAFE ACT. But, as of today, the governor has ignored the people Ñ those very people he claims he works for. Responsible citizens and gun owners need to respond to this law and stand up for their constitutional rights. The battle lines are being drawn!

The NYS SAFE ACT was passed in an emotional rush to satisfy the anti-gunners, with disregard as to its outcome to responsible hunters and gun owners.

Dozens of authors slated for big night at Hoss’s Aug. 13 Adirondack Authors Night enters 29th year

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com LONG LAKE Ñ The big red-and-white tent behind HossÕ s Country Corner will be jam-packed with authors, artists and musicians Tuesday, Aug. 13 during the 29th Annual Adirondack Authors Night.

As of press time, there were 81 authors signed up, according to Lorrie Hosley, of HossÕ s.

Last year there were 70 and it was pretty full. Ò So everybody better be praying for nice weather,Ó Hosley said. Ò If thereÕ s nice weather, thereÕ s no problem, but if we all have to get under the tent with the sides down, weÕ re going to be pretty

squished.Ó One reason for the increase is that many authors simply remembered to keep the date open, and many were available this year. Adirondack Authors Night happens the same evening each year, from 7 to 9 p.m. the second Tuesday in August.

Another reason is the increase in new books, which are typically released during the summer reading season, and the Authors Night is one place to see them first, get them signed and ask the authors questions. Ò There are a lot of new books out there,Ó Hosley said. Ò ItÕ s pretty exciting.Ó People are welcome to bring copies of books they own to get them signed. Or theyÕ ll have plenty of reading material to buy for the long winter reading season. There is no admission for this event.

Winter Carnival book to be released

SARANAC LAKE — Hungry Bear Publishing will release the first book to explore the history and culture of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Thursday, Aug. 15 during the Third Thursday Art Walk.

Author Andy Flynn will be signing copies of his latest book, Ò Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Memories,Ó from 5 to 7:30 p.m. in front of Rice Furniture at 43 Main St., Saranac Lake, as part of the Art Walk festivities.

This will be the official release of the book.

“Saranac Lake will finally have a book to celebrate its largest and most important special event, the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival,Ó Flynn said. Ò IÕ m excited to be able to produce this volume for a community that has given so much to me and my family. It would not have been possible without the support of the Winter Carnival Committee, our business sponsors, and the dozens of people we interviewed.Ó Ò MemoriesÓ is 440 pages and includes 75 interviews, more than 300 photos, history and essays from Flynn and others. It also includes a full timeline compiled by Saranac Lake historians and images of all the Garry Trudeau buttons from 1981 to 2013. The book is told in the oral history tradition, meaning the interviews were printed as they were spoken. Ò I felt it was important to tell the history of the Winter Carnival in the first person,” Flynn said. “These are the voices of the people who have made the Winter Carnival what it is today, from organizers to residents and tourists.Ó This book answers the question, Ò What is the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival?Ó Flynn uses the 2012 and 2013 Winter Carnivals as examples of how this 10-day festival is operated. Readers will get a behind-the scenes view from Carnival Committee members, and they will meet residents, visitors and royalty who have memories to share.

The 10 chapters are: The Theme; Carnival Committee; Ice Palace; Royalty; Gala Parade; Other Events; Community Life; Some History; Mementos; and The Future. The chapter sponsors are the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, Casualty Actuarial Services LLC, Blue Line Brewery, Lakeview Deli, Rice Furniture, Small Fortune Studio and WoodyÕ s Brats & Hots.

The Saranac Lake Winter Carnival dates to 1897, when the Pontiac Club held a one-day festival and now includes a communitywide celebration with an Ice Palace, two parades, three fireworks displays, and a number of sports and cultural events. It is held in early February each year.

Flynn is the author of the six-volume Ò Adirondack AtticÓ book series and is currently the Assistant Managing Editor for Denton Publications in Elizabethtown, where he also serves as Editor of the North Creek News Enterprise. He is also a correspondent for North Country Public Radio and a member of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee.

The Joyful Youth Choir

Local teens come together in song

Fun runs conclude Monday

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE Ñ Teens from St. AlexanderÕ s in Morrisonville, St. AugustineÕ s in Peru and The Roman Catholic Community of Keeseville have come together to form the Joyful Youth Choir.

Formed in the spirit of Pope Emeritus BenedictÕ s Ò Year of Faith,Ó the choirÕ s goal is to involve students in sharing their faith through music.

The choir, consisting of 16 teens from the three parishes, is mentored by Ron Goddeau and pianist/conductor Dennis Frisbie, both from Peru. Ò WeÕ re fortunate that there was enough talent across the three parishes that, even though we have a really small group, we were lucky enough to have a good cross section of voices,Ó said co-organizer Brenda Smith.

The group has been rehearsing for 12 weeks, and their unique arrange-

ments and classic favorites are nearly ready to be unveiled. They perform various styles of music, including songs like Ò Lord of the Dance,Ó Ò Swing Low Sweet Chariot,Ó and Ò When the Saints Go Marching In.Ó Ò ItÕ s something a little bit different that hasnÕ t been tried in this

area,Ó said Goddeau. Ò You always hear about the kids who are in trouble. These are the kids you donÕ t hear about,Ó Goddeau added.

The Joyful Youth Choir will perform Aug. 17 at 7 p.m. at St. AugustineÕ s Church in Peru, and Aug. 18 at

7 p.m. at St. John the Baptist Church in Keeseville.

Corner of 86 and 186 Halfway Between Lake Clear & Saranac Lake Its Worth The Trip!

I actually started in the office at about the same time and we compliment each others skills very well,Ó Whitney added.

Whitney steps into the Democratic chair post a little more than a month before the September primaries. Ò It is a very important local election year and the primaries are less than five weeks away,Ó Whitney said. Ò Everyone in this office will work hard to make sure that

the primary and November elections run smoothly.Ó Whitney was approved by the county board during its Aug. 5 monthly full board meeting, but not unanimously. Sixteen supervisors voted in favor of the appointment including ChesterfieldÕ s Gerald Morrow and ElizabethtownÕ s Margaret Bartley, who offered and seconded the resolution, respectively.

North Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore voted against

the appointment, while Westport Supervisor Dan Connell was absent.

The Essex County Democratic Committee, led by former Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider, made the recommendation to hire Whitney on July 25. The recommendation was brought before the county Ways and Means Committee before heading to the full board, where Moore was the lone dissenting vote both times.

Book N Blanket Players present Pride and Prejudice musical KEENE VALLEY Ñ This year marks the 200th anniversary of the publication of Jane AustenÕ s novel Ò Pride and PrejudiceÓ so what could be more appropriate than the production of a new musical adapted from her classic novel.

Kathleen Recchia of Jay (who has portrayed poet Emily Dickinson throughout the North Country) has been working on this musical for about six years but it wasnÕ t until the subject matter captured the interest of her musician-son Sam that the project zoomed into high gear and became a reality.

Recchia has written all the lyrics and some

of the melodies, but, as she says, Ò IÕ m just a plunker. IÕ ve never taken any music theory course and donÕ t follow any musical rules.

So I needed someone - in this case, my son to make music out of all this.Ó Other musicians have offered guidance, tips and some sort of framework along the way, but it is recent Keene Central School graduate, Sam Balzac, who has put it all together including overture, scene change music, and orchestration.

The play will be produced through the Book & Blanket Players Youth Theatre sponsored by East Branch Friends of the Arts. It

will be performed on Saturday, Aug. 10 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Aug. 11 at 3 p.m., following a week-long intensive theatre workshop at Keene Central School in Keene Valley.

Recchia has directed these musicals with the kids before, including an original musical that she and her son wrote called, Ò Road to Dannemora.Ó But she is concerned that this year will be even more challenging. Ò IÕ ve left much of Jane AustenÕ s language intact because I love it so. But it will be like teaching the kids Shakespeare,Ó she said.

The cast of this original musical production of Ò Pride and PrejudiceÓ consists of 27

students ranging in age from 8 to 18. Balzac (who is also assistant directing) will take on the role of Mr. Darcy. Jessica Kemp of Saranac Lake is Elizabeth Bennet. The kids are primarily from the North Country but there are even students from the Catskills, Long Island, and Massachusetts, coming to join the North Country cast.

The performances are free but donations will be accepted to help defray costs.

For reservations or to learn more about the musical, Ò Pride and PrejudiceÓ call 946-8323 and check out the facebook page for Book & Blanket Players.

Carousel

Continued from page 1 Ò The carousel isnÕ t designed to go non-stop all night, so Paul will ride every time someone wants to go on with him, even if there is just one person, he assures me he doesnÕ t get motion sickness so we think heÕ ll be able to go all the way through the night,Ó Hameline said. Ò We have activities planned all through the night to help him as he tries to stay awake and we hope he has fellow riders all night.Ó Varga said his favorite animal on the carousel is the Otter named Ò OliveÓ although he said heÕ s looking forward to riding all the animals at least once throughout the 24 hour period. Varga will set up his radio show on the back of the Ò See-Ya-RoundÓ boat and be equipped with a wireless microphone to move around the carousel.

All funds raised will go to fund the fall and winter carousel events and programming schedule. Those events include Dr. Seuss Readacross America, Gingerbread house making day, Scarousel Halloween Party, Animal Education lecture series and many more.

Hameline said there are many ways people can get involved during the festivities and for everyone that does there are opportunities for air-time interviews to talk about business services.

People can donate an auction item for the live Ò on-airÓ auction. The carousel currently has auction items including: a$50 gift certificate from Sharper Image Hair Salon, a two-night stay at White Pine Camp, a two-night stay at
