Denno sentenced to 25 years

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com

Families First has recently concluded their 12th annual $10,000 Fundraising Raffle and would like to thank everyone who purchased a ticket. Pictured above is Executive Director JoAnne Caswell handing the $10,000 first prize winner Mary Valley from Wilmington, her $10,000 check, the second prize (a wood deck donated by Nawakua Builders, Bob Sorey, valued at $2,500) was won by Milyn Lareau from Peru, and the third prize (a floor donated by Kim’s Karpets, Kim Feeley, valued at $1,000) was won by Barbara Zintel from Elizabethtown.

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Scott E. Denno was sentenced to two 25-year concurrent sentences for his involvement in the murder of Robert Rennie Jr. in Keeseville. Rennie was found dead on Aug. 26, 2012.

Denno is the first of three man charged in the death of Rennie to be sentenced and one of two found guilty of manslaughter.

Denno, 20, was sentenced to the maximum prison sentence of 25 years in prison for Manslaughter in the First Degree and 25 years concurrent on the Gang Assault in the First Degree. Denno was found guilty after a jury trial in May. Essex County Court Judge Richard B. Meyer sentenced Denno to the maximum terms and also imposed 5 years PostRelease Supervision. Along with the jail sentence, Meyer imposed that Denno pay more than $6,000 in court fees and for RennieÕ s burial and funeral services.

RennieÕ s body was found near an iron foot bridge on Mill Hill Road in Keeseville on the same day.

Autopsy reports showed he died from blunt force

trauma that caused two collapsed lungs and internal bleeding.

Denno was charged along with Paul Taylor, 39, and Michael Rivers, 36, all of Keeseville. They were each charged with first-degree gang assault after investigations by the New York State Police and the Essex County District Attorney’s office in relation to RennieÕ s death.

About 11 members of Robert RennieÕ s family gathered in the courtroom and two family members addressed the Court.

Robert Rennie, Sr., decided to stand before Denno when he asked the maximum sentence be imposed. Ò Scott Denno, because of false statements and rumors you became part of a gang that assaulted and killed Robert,Ó said Rennie. He said because of Denno his son would never see his family again, including two young daughters. Ò You tore a piece of our hearts out, you took Robert from us, we miss him everyday. You had no right to take his life, now you will have to answer to the laws of man and God,Ó said Rennie.

Lang sentenced in death of brother

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Family members of David Lang cried and called out Ò I love you DaveÓ to him as he was removed from the court room on Aug. 8 after the 71-year-old was sentenced to 15 years in prison with five years post supervision for killing his brother.

Lang pleaded guilty to the

charge of first-degree manslaughter. In June he had reached a plea agreement in Essex County Court that lowered the charge from the original charge of second degree murder. As part of his plea agreement, Judge Richard B. Meyer agreed to a sentence of no less than 10 years and no more than 15 years with five years of probation.

During sentencing, Essex County District Attorney

Kristy Sprague asked for the maximum allowable sentence to be imposed.

David Lang decided to speak on his own behalf before the sentence was handed down. Ò I am not a perfect man, IÕ m truly sorry, IÕ ve always loved my brother,Ó said Lang, then he said thank you.

Photo by Katherine Clark the Germans from an, Ò impenetrable perch.Ó But the 10th Mountain did more than turn the tide for the Allies in Italy. They revolutionized winter mountain warfare abroad, transformed winter sports at home and blazed a path of honor for generations to come.

Produced by 10th Mountain descendent Abbie Kealy, the program was filmed extensively

WILMINGTON Ñ The Wilmington Historical Society will show an original short film at the Wilmington Community Center on Friday, Aug. 16, at 7 p.m. Now on DVD, the film is entitled ÒG overnor Franklin D. Roosevelt Visits the North Country and Inaugurates Whiteface Highway Project: Sept. 11, 1929.Ò This 16mm movie was made to document Governor Franklin RooseveltÕ s visit to the area in 1929 and included the inauguration ceremony for

in Colorado, Italy, Afghanistan and Yugoslavia, with insights from over 100 10th Mountain soldiers.

Smith said he has a copy of the film at home but it was great to watch the film and experience it alongside members of his community.

The experience with the division is something he is grateful for and he said he loves to tell

the Whiteface VeteranÕ s Highway Project on Sept. 11. Its presentation and associated history will be presented by Douglas Wolfe, Wilmington Historical Society Trustee. Accompanying the presentation, Jim Griebsch, media specialist, will discuss the process of updating such older media to current digital format. The program is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be provided by the Country Bear Bakery in Wilmington. For further information, contact the Wilmington Historical Society at 420-8370.

KEENE VALLEY Ñ The local members of the 10th Mountain Division were celebrated at the Keene Valley Congregational Church as part of a benefit for the Keene Veterans Memorial Fund on Aug. 8.

The 10th mountain division began 70 years ago while the globe was embroiled in World War II. The division, made up of ski patrolmen, skiers, and mountain climbing enthusiasts, suffered more casualties than any other unit and trained unlike any army division.

Original 10th Mountain Division members and residents of Keene and Upper Jay area Charles Smith, Lou Vincent and Bob Trumbull were special guests to the showing of the film, Ò The Last Ridge.Ó The men were honored with a standing ovation following the film.

Following the showing, the audience joined the soldiers to talk about their experience in the division amongst displays of photographs and some of their original gear.

Through the film it depicts the Divisions birth and their feats of bravery, doing the impossible in the mountains of Italy, scaling a 2,000-foot cliff on a cold winter night to knock

people about it. Ò It was great, even around Plattsburgh people like to hear about what it was like in the 10th Mountain Division and everyone seems to know about it,Ó Smith said.

Smith went into the division as a young man and said he volunteered because he wanted to use his skills in winter sports to help his country. Ò I liked to ski and thought it would be a great place to be,Ó said Smith.

Once in training, Smith said it was a lot more work than fun but in the end he was just happy to be a part of it.

Throughout the years, Smith and other members of the 10th Division have returned to Italy where they were responsible for taking over Mount Belvedere. Ò IÕ ve been back to Italy three times in 2009, 2010 and 2012,Ó Smith said. Ò When we go back, people are thankful, they remember from their grandparents telling them about the division and they are welcoming.Ó For more information on how you can support the Keene Veterans Memorial go to the Marcy Post 1312 American Legion, 15 Market Street. To make a donation, checks can be mailed to Keene Community Trust, P.O. Box 498, Keene Valley, N.Y.

This sale features good quality items, and although tag and yard sales in general arenÕ t my cup of tea, my dog Ginny and I always attend to support the SPCA and acquire, forgive me, potential Christmas gifts. IÕ ll have more details next week.

Ginny and I surprised a large flock of juvenile wild turkeys early one morning last week.

There must have been 20 birds feeding on the ground near a patch of sumac. You could sense their indignation as they flew up into a large oak tree or ran helter skelter away from us. Turkeys can fly quite well but loathe the effort it takes. These light brown birds, about the size of a big slim duck, hatched this spring and were not showing the strong dimorphism, or difference between the sexes, just yet. They were likely feeding on insects, which in the cold morning air move rather slowly and are easier to catch. We didnÕ t see any adult birds, although at least one mature female would

likely have been with them, as the young stay with their mothers until late autumn. Wild turkeys nearly went extinct in the 1930Õ s, mostly from overhunting and loss of habitat, and even thirty years ago they were a rare sight in Reber. Avoid them on the road when driving, as they can break windshields and damage your car because of their considerable weight.

At Juniper Hill Farm, the fields of cutting flowers are especially lovely right now.

If you have energy to burn, or house guests you would just like to get out of the house for a while, send them for a bike ride along the newly paved Lewis-Wadhams Road.

The vegetable and flower fields are arrayed along it, east of the Northway, and thereÕ s the added bonus of the Pierce dairy farm, with a beautiful herd of Jerseys on pasture.

If your guests are still antsy, like ours tend to be, download a map of the extensive CATS foot path network and suggest a route. They canÕ t get lost and no doubt will return all nice and relaxed, just the way we like them.

Hollywood Theatre fundraiser planned companied by Eric Klotzo. Ò The call to save the theatre is one that I donÕ t take lightly,Ó Town of Jay Supervisor Randall Douglas, who will be the eveningÕ s emcee, said. Ò The Hollywood is not only an integral part of our Main Street Revitalization Plan, but also a beloved gathering place for families and friends, locals and tourists alike.Ó Susan Richards, a native of Keeseville and currently a resident of the Town of Jay, has performed side by side with Tony and Emmy Award Winner and star of Broadway George Hearn and his wife Leslie Hearn in such productions as Ò Chicago,Ó “Mame,” and “South Pacific”.

Susan has delighted audiences throughout the North Country, including appearances at the JEMS Coffeehouse, with her extraordinary vocal talents.

Tickets for this event are $20 per person with 100 percent of the proceeds being donated to the Hollywood Theatre for use in their ongoing campaign to Ò Go Digital or Go Dark.Ó Recent mandating has forced small local theatres to complete a digital upgrade by the end of 2013. The exorbitant costs of this conversion are forcing some local theatres to close their doors.

When Richards heard of the situation Hollywood Theatre owners Corey Hanf and Sierra Serino were facing, Ò it became obvious that I had to do somethingÓ Susan said.

After tossing the idea back and forth with Town of Jay colleague Carol Greenley, the idea for Ò A Tribute to the ClassicsÓ was born.Ó Ò I have had such loving support from the community every

time I have appeared in concert or in a local theater production that I felt that I could give back to the community by offering to do this fundraising event in order to keep the doors to the Hollywood open for business,Ó Richards said. Ò From working in the Town of Jay SupervisorÕ s Office, I learned firsthand after the devastation of Hurricane Irene that the strength of this community is seen most clearly at a time like this, when one family is facing a hardship, everyone comes together to lend time, talent or monetary contributions.Ó Tickets for advanced seating for this event can be obtained by calling the Hollywood Theatre at 647-5953. There is limited seating.

Get serious about road repair Money is the major problem

W

hen driving over roads in the Adirondacks, drivers and passengers routinely cringe when driving over potholes or veering around ruts in the road.

While such road conditions may provide an entertaining obstacle course for some Ò road warriors,Ó the deteriorated roads not only are a threat to public safety in triggering crashes, but they cause considerable damage to vehicles which boost repair and maintenance costs substantially for us all.

Younger drivers may take the prevailing road conditions for granted. But those of us whoÕ ve been around for a while remember how decades ago, roadways were substantially smoother across the state. We remember how crossing state lines meant an abrupt change from cruising on smooth black asphalt surfaces, to driving on rutted bumpy roadways of Pennsylvania, New Jersey or Massachusetts.

This scenario has changed dramatically.

Faced with repeated financial shortfalls since the onset of the recession, New York State and its counties and towns slashed spending on roadway repair, and the results are evident in the road conditions here.

The problems with lack of road maintenance, however, go back further than 2008.

Years ago, a top state Department of Transportation official gave a presentation to Warren County supervisors, warning about how lack of funding for repair of the stateÕ s roads was at near-crisis status, requiring billions of dollars more each year to restore roads to their historical condition.

Putting off needed minor repairs and resurfacing, he said, caused serious deterioration to occur that required far more expensive road reconstruction. He cited studies concluding that it costs seven times as much money to repair a road in bad condition than it does to maintain a road in adequate status.

His warning was on target.

An independent study showed that although New York had once had roadway conditions that far outshined the neighboring states of New Jersey and Connecticut, all three states had sunk to the bottom ranking nationally in recent years. The New York Times reported that New York ranked 43rd among the 50 states, Connecticut ranked 44th and New Jersey was the absolute last at number 50. The study was based on measuring excessive vibration.

At the time, it was reported that transportation officials calculated that poor road conditions cost U.S. motorists about $68 billion per year in extra repair and maintenance costs, or as

much as $800 to $1,000 extra annually per driver in regions with the most neglected roadways.

In 2009, the American Society of Civil Engineers assigned a near-failing grade of Ò DÓ to the nations roadways.

Studies conducted since then have showed that despite billions of dollars in federal stimulus funding being spent on roadway repair, prevailing conditions have actually declined.

For several years now, Warren County Public Works Superintendent Jeff Tennyson has voiced this same warning, about how procrastination on roadway repair costs taxpayers far more than paying a modest sum extra each year for responsible road upkeep.

Several weeks ago, he repeated his warning, noting the continued deterioration of county roadways. He said he could easily prepare a list of roads requiring repair that was four pages long. County supervisors responded by endorsing repair of three roadways, which we applaud, but their commitment to road repair should be far greater.

ThereÕ s some relief on the horizon, we hear, to the lack of state funding for road repair.

Earlier this year, the New York State Association of Counties called for a substantial increase in funding for roads and bridge repair and reconstruction statewide, noting that existing funding levels were only at about threequarters the level needed to maintain current conditions. The state legislature responded by boosting the stateÕ s Consolidated Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS) by $75 million for each of the next two years.

While this increase should be applauded, it will take far more than this sum to stem ongoing roadway deterioration, particularly in light of decreases in federal funding and the end of the stimulus infrastructure grants.

Counties and towns also need to step up and authorize road repair and maintenance projects that are needed to keep our roads in good condition.

Poor roads not only cost drivers a lot in vehicle repair Ñ which is in itself far more costly year by year but they also crucial to the areaÕ s economic vitality.

Aaron became an Eagle Scout in 2011 and Alexander earned his honor on Saturday, July 13, at the Whiteface Community United Methodist Church in Wilmington. The family resides in Wilmington. Troop 24 saw its first Eagle Scout and Troop 5 saw its last Eagle Scout all in the same day. That scout was one and the same, as Alexander Connor had been a member of the Au Sable Forks Troop 5. The Troop merged last year with the Keeseville Troop, resulting in Troop 24 from Keeseville/Au Sable Forks.

torney, but it is my understanding that we cannot donate money,Ó Preston said. Ò I agree that it is an appropriate use of money, but I do have to question the legality of it,Ó Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava added. Ò In the town of Moriah, we gave money to the VFW for flags and stuff and we were told to stop.”

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley, who told Demarco she was the daughter of the WWII vet, said there were other ways the supervisors could help the program. Ò I think we have more leverage contacting people in our towns and making a donation,Ó Bartley said. Ò I think that can be more helpful than any check that we can write as a board. I believe anybody who is the daughter or a son of a WWII veteran would be interested in contributing to this.Ó “We can definitely help in each town with the fundraising efforts,Ó Preston said. Ò We could be very supportive and put the information on our website and I would put this information on the town Facebook page,Ó Minerva Supervisor Sue Montgomery Corey said.

Continued from page 1 “Each flight costs $10,000, and they could sure use your help,Ó Demarco said.

He added that Jay Supervisor and County Board Chairman Randy Douglas had sent a letter on his behalf to all of the regional representatives at the state and federal level, and had little success. Ò I received one response from Congressman Owens’ office, and he said there was no funding available,Ó Demarco said. Ò It is too bad that there is no state and federal funding available,Ó Douglas said. Ò I think that it would be appropriate and taxpayer dollars well spent to give some funding to get these veterans to the memorial.Ó Committee chair Randy Preston of Wilmington said the board would have to find out if they could legally give a contribution of taxpayer money. Ò We would have to check with the county at-

BRTF

Continued from page 1 This year, Carroll and her sister, Kelsey (musical director), are teaming with 32 North Country youth ranging from ages 8 to 14 to present Ò The Music Man, Jr.Ó Ò It has been a lot of fun working with her this year,Ó Alyssa said.

The performances will take place with a Friday, Aug. 16, and Saturday, Aug. 17, 7 p.m. opening curtain, followed by a 2 p.m. matinee Sunday, Aug. 18.

The company picked Ò Music ManÓ because they wanted to have a traditional musical to help celebrate the anniversary. Ò Since this is our 20th anniversary season, we wanted to go with a musical standard,Ó Alyssa said. Ò We usually attract a multi-generational audience with friends, parents and grandparents of the actors, so we wanted something that gave everyone a chance to know the music and

something that the cast could really have fun with.Ó One of the biggest changes with BRTF was the transition into doing Broadway style shows. Ò In the beginning, the director (Erika Stadtlander) wrote all of the shows,Ó Alyssa said.

“She was here for the first 12 years of the program. After that, we have gone to professional shows that have also been performed on Broadway.Ó The cast of 32 includes many veterans to the BRTF stage, and they practice for three weeks leading up to the performances, starting July 29. Ò We do have a few new people, but the majority of the people who are here are returning to the program,Ó Alyssa said. Ò We have a lot of kids who understand what to expect, and they are ready for the routine.Ó Tickets for BRTFÕ s presentation of Ò The Music Man, Jr.Ó are $12 for adults and $8 for students.

All proceeds go toward BRTF programming.

Hearing

Continued from page 1 During his remarks, several members of the audience continued to voice frustration with Lewis, until it reached a boiling point as Lewis continued to direct remarks at the town board and town assessors who were in attendance. Ò Mr. Lewis, go home, please,Ó Town Clerk Audrey Hoskins said. Ò Shut up,Ó Rob Ivy said, standing to speak to Lewis and pointing. Ò Do you hear me? Shut up.Ó Ò We have had an issue before...,Ó Lewis started to respond. Ò Drop dead,Ó replied Ivy. During the exchange, Supervisor Sharon Boisen tried to return calm by asking Lewis to stop. Ò Sandy, thatÕ s enough,Ó she said.

Ivy, a columnist for the Valley News, later apologized for his remarks. Ò I would like to apologize for my outbursts toward Mr. Lewis,Ó Ivy said later in the meeting. “I find him a most vexing character.Ó The meeting was called to gauge whether residents wanted to have the matter of

an elected or appointed assessor on the November ballot. Ò We do not want to make this decision on our own, and we want to know if people want this to be put on the ballot,Ó Boisen said. Ò We wanted to put this issue out to the public and see what they would want to do. The board agreed that no matter what their opinion was, they would go with what the majority of the town said.Ó Boisen said town board members had the option of voting for the change from three elected assessors to a sole appointed assessor as a board and without public referendum.

However, that choice has proven to be potentially damming. In 2011, town of Crown Point board members voted 3-2 to make the change to a sole assessor. Following the decision, then Supervisor Bethany Kosmider and the councilmen who voted in favor of the move were all defeated in the general election with those voting against her pointing to the change.

Sally Johnson said that even if the matter was brought to a vote, she wanted to know the people behind the options. Ò Without knowing the individuals that would be ap-

pointed, I donÕ t think I can make that choice,Ó Johnson said.

Boisen said that while the board would have the say on who was appointed, they would also have a direct line of authority over that person. Ò An appointed assessor would report to the town board and would have set hours,Ó Boisen said. Ò The elected officials do not have set hours, but these three work to get the job done.Ó Ò I would like very much to be given the choice,Ó Ivy said. Ò I really think that would be a democratic way to make this decision.Ó Ivy also said those attending the meetings may be coming with agendas which could skew the discussion. Ò I do not know if you are going to get an honest cross section in meetings like this,Ó he said. Ò I would like to see this on the ballot so not only I have the chance but all of the taxpayers have the chance to have their say on this,Ó Wayne Bailey said.

Current assessor Pat Gardner also brought up the option of a sole elected assessor, which could be included on the ballot as a third option.

Chinese artist visits region, donates works to CFES fundraiser

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ESSEX Ñ An artist who has exhibited around the world came to Essex last week to do the same, this time for a cause.

Chinese painter Yin Zhong and his works were at the center of

a recent College For Every Student (CFES) fundraising event, as the artist painted several landscapes of the region and auctioned them off along with other works to benefit the organization.

Yin was drawn to Westport by Yun Arbour, who lives in town and is a friend. Ò When Yun joined the board of CFES, she wanted to do something and said that she knew an artist in China,Ó Karen Dalton of CFES said. Ò She wanted to do an art show and sale as a fundraiser, and she called Yin about it.Ó Ò I am very honored to share my work and give my contribution to CFES,Ó Yin said through Arbour, who acted as his translator. Ò I think something that encourages kids in education is a grand venture.Ó Yin said he has always painted, which was why he was approached by the Chinese military. Ò I was chosen to paint the posters for the Army and for Chairman Yao during the cultural revolution of 1968-78,Ó Yin said. Ò I was to make portraits of our lives in the army to promote it to the people of the country.Ó Yin has specialized in Chinese ink wash painting for the past 10 years. He had his first solo art show in Shanghai in 1995, followed by shows in Italy and Australia in 2009 and in Canada in 2010.

He said that it was how Arbour talked about the region that attracted him to come. Ò She has been talking about the beauty of Essex and has always invited me to come over and see it for myself,Ó Yin said. Ò It is a precious experience just to be able to enjoy and appreciate the landscape of this area. I will continue to work on what I have seen here so I can share my feelings of what I have felt here

Artist Yin Zhong displays his work at the College For Every Student headquarters in Essex.

Photo by Keith Lobdell through my works.Ó Yin said the feature he finds most attractive about the Adirondacks is how everything goes together. Ò What shocks me is the nature and the conservancy of the nature,Ó he said. Ò The buildings and the trees that are here are so perfectly conserved and that is amazing to me coming from Shanghai, which is a mega city.Ó

New day-care option in Essex – “Sprouts” ESSEX Ñ The Lakeside School, located at Black Kettle Farm in Essex is offering a new day-care option for young children in the North Country Ð the Ò SproutsÓ program. This full day care program for 1 & 2 year olds will launch in September 2013 and is built around a predictable and steady rhythm in a warm and supportive homelike environment.

The unique setting allows children to experience farm life while feeding the farm animals, working in the gardens, and exploring the forest, fields, and streams. The children will spend lots of time outdoors in all seasons and have the opportunity to assist in the preparation of whole-food snacks and meals, all made on-site. The slow-paced rhythm of the day allows for plenty of rest

time for the children, as well as interaction with the older Lakeside students. Sprouts children and their families are also invited to participate in school and community festivals Ð Harvest Fest and Lantern Walk in the fall, Winter Spiral and ValentineÕ s Day in the winter, and Maple Sugaring and May Day in the spring. 2-day, 3-day, and 5-day options are available. Space is limited, so please register early.

The Lakeside School also offers a mixedage Kindergarten for children ages 3-6 and an elementary school program for 1st and 2nd graders. Optional extended day care is available for all Lakeside School children until 5:00pm. For more information, visit www.lakesideschoolinessex.org or call (518)963-7385.

Lewis Family Farm agrees to suit settlement with Essex

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ESSEX Ñ After months of negotiations and litigation, the feud between the town of Essex and Lewis Family Farm has been settled with Salim Ò SandyÓ Lewis walking away with a much smaller tax bill.

In a settlement agreed upon by both sides and approved by Essex County Judge Richard Meyer, the Lewis Family Farm will see a drastic drop in its assessed property value, dropping from $6.03 million to $2,158,200 for the 2011 tax year and $2,341,690 for tax years 2012 through 2016, to reflect the construction of two cattle-based facilities.

Ò This is a court-stipulated and agreed-upon settlement between the town and the farm,Ó Lewis said. Ò This matter was unique because we have not paid taxes for the past three years, and this settlement applies back three years as well as forward three years. They also got no interest and they got no penalties from us.Ó Essex Supervisor Sharon Boisen did not want to comment on the litigation itself but did say that the town would have to look carefully at the approaching budget season with a near $4 million in lost assessed value. Ò Everything is just settling in and we will have to figure things out,” Boisen said. “The town will have to look at the budget and work through it.Ó Members of the town board also approved

2013 LABOR DAY

DEADLINES Classifieds, Legals, Display & Obits

Aug. 8 moving $50,000 from the general fund of the town budget to the legal fund to help cover the costs of the lawsuit filed by Lewis against the town.

The town had previously budgeted $85,000 into its legal fund to start the 2013 fiscal year in anticipation of the case along with standard legal fees. Ò I told them from day one that they were going to lose, and this town has now been billed over $100,000 to litigate this matter,Ó Lewis said.

Lewis said he felt this case had the same theme as his case against the Adirondack Park Agency. Ò These things speak to the behavior of government,Ó Lewis said. Ò The APAÕ s attitude was on trial in that case and there have been some changes since. Whether that will cut the deck, I donÕ t know. Ò With this case, again, a citizen raises his hand

and said I donÕ t think this is right and again, the citizen is proven correct,Ó Lewis continued. Ò At the end of the day, what you are really seeing is people being told to quit misusing their authority. You saw that message with the APA and now you have seen that message with the town of Essex.Ó Lewis said he still feels that he was a target of the system. Ò This is the last thing that I wanted to do. I didn’t want to sue, and I didn’t want to fight,” he said. Ò But this was a capricious, horrible misuse of authority. It is dead wrong what they did, and the court has recognized this. We got clammed, and it probably goes back five to 10 years. As far as I am concerned, it is clear, this was a conspiracy to get the Lewises.Ó

CATS trail project scheduled ESSEX Ñ Champlain Area Trails (CATS) is developing a new hiking/skiing trail that would be an important link in a trail that could connect Essex and Willsboro.

CATS will host the project to create the tentatively-titled Ò Flatwoods TrailÓ on Saturday morning, Aug. 17 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Ò This trail will feature forests and wetlands on the relatively level uplands between Essex and Willsboro,Ó said Chris Maron, Executive Director of CATS. Ò A trail connecting the two hamlets is a future possibility so we will create it now as a

stand-alone trail where people can walk through a forest and field, then pass a beautiful little pond to get to the flatwoods. It will make an interesting loop through the woods as it takes people by a little rock outcrop and along a secluded wetland.Ó CATS invites people of all ages to come out to clear the trail.

Participants will cut tree limbs and saplings, remove fallen logs, and clear brush so people can enjoy hiking on the trail. Ò The Flatwoods Trail will be on private property CATS recently conserved through a donated conservation easement that protects farmland, forest,

and clean water,Ó said Katharine Preston, the CATS board chair. Ò We thank Dick and Leanna DeNeale for allowing CATS to have this trail. Most land in the Champlain Valley is privately owned so CATS makes agreements with landowners to create and maintain our trails.Ó The Flatwoods Trail Project begins at 8:30 a.m. and will last until about 12:30 p.m. Volunteers should meet in Essex at the Ferry Parking Lot. Please bring gloves, loppers, and hand saws. CATS will also provide tools. For more details, call 962-2287 or email champlaintrails@gmail.com.

The Women’s Team of (l to r) Maureen Perry, Renee Lewis, Alice LeClerc, and Etta Moredock won first place in the Annual Paine Memorial Library Tournament, at the Willsboro Golf Club. The event, which is a fund raiser for the library, celebrated its 17th year on July 13, 2013.

New website promotes biking, walking in the North Country

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com 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 to walk or bike in the North Country,Ó Jessica Darney-Buehler of the Essex County Department of Public Health said. Ò We are also encouraging the maintenance of infrastructure that will help people get out and walk and bike in the region.Ó Buehler said the media campaign can be found online, whether at their website, Facebook page or Twitter account. Ò We have done a lot of work on policy and this media campaign is the next step,Ó Buehler said. Ò It is a new direction for us, but we are in the final year-and-a-half of our five year contract with the Creating Healthy Places program and it is time to look more at the media aspect and getting the word out.Ó Buehler said walking and biking throughout the Adirondacks is

something that can be a solo adventure or a family affair. Ò This is something fun to do with the family, taking a walk in the woods, going on a hike or a family bike ride and having those family experiences locally in the North Country,Ó she said.

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.

For more information, visit the website getoutandlivenorthcountry. org or co.essex.ny.us/EssexCountyPublicHealth.

Health Department urges lyme disease prevention

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Many residents and visitors to Essex County and the Adirondacks are enjoying spending time outdoors this summer. Essex County Public Health emphasizes the many health benefits associated with outdoor activities in the heart of summer and encourages people to take precautions to protect their health.

“We have seen a significant increase in confirmed cases of Lyme Disease in Essex County; most especially in the Champlain Valley,Ó said Linda Beers, Public Health Director.

Lyme disease is transmitted to people through the bite of an infected tick.

On the fairway Gallagher Memorial golf tournament planned Nixon Memorial tournament set Au SABLE FORKS Ñ The 2nd Annual Johnny Nixon Memorial Fast Pitch Tournament will be hosted Aug. 16-18, at the Billy Mitchell Memorial Field in Au Sable Forks.

This year, there will be eight teams participating that include five local and three out of the area. The tournament will begin with a Little League game at 5:30 p.m., dedication at 6:45 p.m. and the first game starting at 7 p.m. There will be food, 50/50 Raffles and T-shirts for sale throughout the weekend as well as a Monetary Donation Box at the entrance.

Portions of the proceeds generated will be disbursed to the ALS Raising Hope Foundation, a local non-profit organization, in memory of my very good friend who lost his battle with Lou GherigÕ s Disease.

For more information regarding the upcoming tournament, contact Kelly Murphy at 578-2194 or via email at clamountain14@yahoo.com; or Chad Garcia at 578-8181.

SARANAC LAKE Ñ On Monday, Aug. 26, High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care is hosting the inaugural Bill Gallagher Memorial Golf Tournament at the Saranac Inn Golf and Country Club.

Bill was a much beloved teacher and an avid golfer from Saranac Lake who passed away in 2011. The tournament cost is $85 per person or $340 for a team of four. Registration begins at 11:30 a.m. with a 1 p.m. shot gun start. This event includes 18 holes of golf with cart, lunch and prizes. Teams of four are encouraged to participate but all players are welcomed. Less than four players registering together may be teamed up with others to share a cart.

Pre-registration is required by Aug. 16. Registration forms can be found athighpeakshopice.org under the events page. Contact Sandy Bandru at 891-0606 or sbandru@hphpc.org for further details.

Fun run series ends

Beers said that the department encourages people to take simple steps to prevent contracting Lyme Disease, including: •Wear light colored clothes with long sleeves and pant legs so you can easily spot & remove ticks; •Apply repellents safely; and •Perform daily tick checks including bathing or showing soon after outdoor activities for ease of finding and removing ticks.

The preferred removal method is to grasp the tick with fine point tweezers close to skin attachment and pull straight up.

For additional information on Lyme disease prevention and tick removal visit the Essex County Public Health website at co.essex.ny.us/ PublicHealth.

Keene Brook rock wall rebuilt after storm, more to be added

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com KEENE Ñ Two years ago, the waters from the Gulf Brook spilled over its banks and caused havoc to the hamlet of Keene as part of the mark Tropical Storm Irene left on the North Country.

Now, town officials are working to shore up both sides of the brook, repairing the rock wall on the east side of the brook while creating a new wall on the west side. Ò Initially, we were just going to replace the wall as it initially stood on the easterly side of the brook,Ó Keene Supervisor Bill Ferebee said. Ò However, after the engineer came in and took a look at it, he recommended that we extend the wall 200 feet longer to protect the wall and shore up the bank.Ó While Ferebee said the work to the east side

was covered through FEMA funding, the town also wanted to improve on their brook defenses. Ò We applied for a grant two years ago through National Resource Conservation Services to do some brook restoration and stabilization to protect the properties on the westerly side,Ó Ferebee said. Ò We got a grant for $800,000 to do the work and $60,000 for engineering.

We also got a DEC Flood Mitigation Grant for $151,500, which will cover the 25 percent match that is required.Ó Ferebee said he is anxious for the project to get started. Ò We are hoping to get all of the engineering, design and permitting done over the winter and start construction in the spring when the water recedes,Ó Ferebee said. Ò The east side had a wall of 137 feet which was destroyed, but the west side really was the problem side when it came to the damage that was done to the houses and road.Ó
