LEWIS Ñ Essex CountyÕ s second largest private employer, NYCO Minerals, has a plan to ensure another 10 years worth of mining at their Lewis mine, but it will require a land swap with the state. NYCO is bordered by state land. A small parcel of that land, a land-locked 200 acres known simply as Lot 8, holds enough Wollastonite to keep the mine operational another 10 years, NYCO officials believe. But because itÕ s in the Adirondack Park, that state land falls under the stateÕ s, Ò Forever Wild,Ó provision. A change in the stateÕ s constitution would be required to approve a land swap.

In exchange for those 200 acres, NYCO is offering the state 1,500 of their property. The property they are offering has considerable road frontage, and is currently acting as a buffer, preventing hikers, hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts access to the massive Jay Mountain wilderness to the east and west. The NYCO parcels, along with road frontage, have streams stocked with brook trout and the occasional salmon is caught in one of the streams. Only a positive vote by two consecutive state legislatures, and a yes vote on a state-wide ballot, can allow the land to transfer to private hands. NYCO has already gotten those positive votes from the legislature, in 2012 and 2013, and the measure will now come up to a state-wide

vote. Ò The 200 acres was a parcel of property that the state got for back taxes,Ó said Theresa Sayward, retired New York State Assemblywoman. Ò The state is not giving up something that was purchased for environmental reasons.Ó Sayward has long been a proponent of the land swap. An exposed vein of Wollastonite can be seen commanding the exposed rock face just 25 feet from Lot 8. In some places there are only about 10 feet of Ò overstory,Ó or material that would need to be removed in order to begin mining. As part of the deal, when NYCO has mined all the Wollastonite from the 200 CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Au SABLE FORKS Ñ Jay residents will not have to wait until November to exercise their voting rights. The town will hold a permissive referendum Wednesday, Oct. 16, with polling from noon until 8 p.m. at the Town of Jay Community Center (11 School Lane in Au Sable Forks) and the Amos and Julia Ward Theatre (12 Parkside Drive, Jay). At issue is whether the town should be allowed to move forward with a plan to reduce its town justice office from two justices to one at the end of this year when the term of Justice Robert Minogue comes to an end. A Ò yesÓ vote will eliminate one justice position, and a Ò noÓ vote will not eliminate one justice position. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Continued from page 1 ÒWh at generally happens is they approve what is accepted by the committee and then we should receive a letter within two or three weeks,Ó said County Attorney Dan Manning, who attended the committee meeting last week. Ò They approved the transfer of the certificate in committee and the full planning council will meet on Oct. 3,Ó he added. “We should have the final approval for the sale by the end of October.Ó With approval, the state committee added stipulations to the certificate relating to some Medicaid directives and Centers for Specialty Care providing proof relative to their ability to finance the sale. Those were added to stipulations already placed in the contract by Essex County, which include allowing the current employees to remain on staff if they desire, ensuring those who are already residents of the home may contin-

ue to live there and giving top priority in admittance to Essex County residents. Once official word of the transfer is received by both sides, Manning said that the ball will start rolling quickly toward a Dec. 31 finish line. Ò We are hoping to close on the whole deal by the end of December, and weÕ re hopeful that it will be fully transferred over by Jan. 1,Ó Manning said. Ò We do not see where there will be any problems.Ó County Manager Dan Palmer, who also attended the Sept. 12 meeting, said a transition plan is starting to take better shape. Ò We were able to speak to the owners in New York City,Ó Palmer said. Ò They are scheduled to come up in the first part of December to conduct meeting with the department heads and then later to come back and conduct meetings with the employees.Ó Ò There will be several steps to take, including us as a county meeting with the employees and they will also hold meetings,Ó Manning said.

ave you heard about our special adoption program, Seniors for Seniors? The program is available to adults aged 60 or older who would like to be matched with one of the shelterÕ s eligible cats, selected by our knowledgeable staff. The cats in the program are aged three or older; or have been in the shelter more than a year; or are shy or withdrawn in a shelter setting. We are offering a discount of 50 percent off the adoption fee. Cats will be spayed or neutered and up to date on routine shots. This is a great opportunity to help both cats and people find the friendship they crave. There are many reasons why adopting an adult cat is a great decision, especially for an older person. Adult cats are generally calmer, already trained, and their personalities are well developed. The devotion shown by older rescue cats is extremely rewarding. A cat can provide loving companionship and an opportunity for a person to interact and bond, especially when their family is far away. Having a pet helps reduce stress and can improve oneÕ s mental and physical health. Our featured pet this week is Holly, a Boston Terrier/Whippet mix. This little lady was rescued from a Ò high killÓ shelter - at the time we received her, she only had a few hours left to live. Holly has a beautiful dark chocolate coat and soul-searching brown eyes.

he Fall chill is in the air and a jacket once again feels good. There have been many people traveling through or around on bikes and motorcycles this past week. Many stop in to the visitorÕ s center and express how beautiful this area is for them to view. We had a bus load of 50 Senior Citizens from Ohio stop this past week and they were also impressed with the North country. There was a good turn out for the Primary vote this past week, some were looking for the names of some they knew were running and did not find their names on the ballot. This was due to the fact that some that ran under the Independent ticket will not be voted for until the general election in Nov. The committee is now working on the plans for the up coming Annual Veterans Dinner and program. This has become a wonder event for our veterans.

Joining the Honor Flight at BWI was seven-year old Mackenzie Maki, with her father who is active duty Navy. Mackenzie has been greeting the Honor Flight at BWI airport since she was old enough to stand, and her dream was to accompany the WW-II heroes to the Memorial. This year her dream came true as she joined our Honor Flight for the entire day, including being the honored guest at our dinner at American Legion Post 276 in Severn MD, where the veterans presented her with a special U.S. Navy teddy bear, complete with Honor Flight ID badge. The veterans absolutely loved Mackenzie, and she now holds the official title of Honor Flight Angel.

The first one is a work party for the new Flatwoods 7UDLO Z KLFK Z LOOH[ W HQ G DERXW P LOHVZ HVW from Lake Shore Road just north of the village in Essex. Volunteers are asked to meet on Saturday, Sept. 21, at 12:30 p.m. at the Essex Ferry parking lot, with gloves, loppers, and handsaws (CATS will also provide some tools). The new trail will be part of a network of planned trails that CATS hopes will eventually connect Essex and Willsboro. The other upcoming CATS project is a team effort between CATS and the SPCA and it will take place the following Saturday, Sept. 28. The SPCA has 18 acres of good dog-walking land at their new site (on Rte. 9N just past the Northway), and in partnership with CATS theyÕ re planning 11 trails. Volunteers for this work party will meet at 8:30 a.m. at the SPCA and work till lunchtime. Again, bring your gloves and tools. I imag-

will be happening for those interested. Pick up a registration form at the social center or online at elizabethownsocialcenter.org, or Facebook.

This Saturday there will be a retirement party for Jim Morgan, the townÕ s longstanding highway chief, at the Whallonsburg Grange from 1 to 4 p.m. Bring a pot-luck dish to share and a story or two concerning Mr. Morgan, who no doubt has been involved in some amusing incidents during his 27 years working for the town.

Jay justice

Continued from page 1 Minogue is currently seeking re-election to the potentially soon-to-be eliminated position, along with candidates Rosemond Lincoln-Day and Rodney Dockum. The town council voted in July to move forward with the matter before a petition circulated by current town council candidate Fred Balzac was received in August to send the issue to a vote. Town Supervisor Randy Douglas, who also chairs the Essex County Board of Supervisors, voiced concerns over the vote. Ò I honestly feel this is a waste of taxpayer dollars,Ó Douglas said, referring to the $2,803 price tag associated with the polling. Ò The town of Jay Board did our due diligence in making this determination that one justice could handle the current average criminal case load.Ó Balzac had said he felt that the issue needed to be addressed by all of the voters within the town which is why he moved forward with a petition. Ò That is a big part of it,Ó Balzac said. Ò I heard about the resolution days before the August meeting and I thought that it would automatically be on the ballot. When I heard that it was not, I asked the board if they would put it on the ballot and they declined.Ó Douglas said he felt the board had done its due diligence when making their decision. Ò I conducted a salary survey of all towns in Essex County regarding their justice position/positions,Ó Douglas said. Ò The Town Board made this decision only after Judge Dan Deyoe stated that he could handle the case load if Judge MinogueÕ s position was eliminated. This decision by the Town Board was based on the needs of the town and as a cost-saving measure.Ó Douglas said the town court is only in session once a week, with the judges handling cases on a rotating basis. Ò Currently, court is not held two times per week once by each judge as many constituents may have believed,Ó he said. Balzac feels that there is a Ò strong argumentÓ for having two. “In a small town like Jay, you can have a conflict of interest. ItÕ s an easy enough problem to have,Ó he said. Ò We had only one town justice before and there had to be a good reason why they decided to go to two.Ó This is the second permissive referendum to be filed within the past two months in the region, as voters in the village of Keeseville filed a petition forcing an Oct. 22 vote on the plan to dissolve the incorporated village.

Erosion, sediment control course set WESTPORT Ñ On Sept. 20, the Essex County Soil and Water Conservation District will offer the required four hour Erosion and Sediment Control training for contractors and developers.

Flooding in Colorado heart wrenching

I

t is hard not to harken back to August 2011 and the devastation the region endured at the hands of Tropical Storm Irene when viewing the images coming from the 15 Colorado counties most impacted by the recent violent flooding there. Stories and photos shared on Facebook by loved ones and friends in Colorado are heartwrenching. The news is tragic and the story is still unfolding. Five people have been confirmed dead after 15 inches of rain pounded Colorado non-stop for nearly a week. As of Monday afternoon, 1,200 people remained cut off from the outside world with no electricity and dwindling supplies of food and running water. State emergency officials say the death toll is expected to rise as rescue efforts into mountainous backcountry areas have been severely hindered by the wet weather. Roadways and bridges have crumbled by the rising flood waters, which cover more than 2,000 square miles across 15 counties Ñ an area twice the size of the state of Rhode Island. To date, nearly 19,000 homes have been damaged, with at least 1,500 destroyed and 11,000 people have been evacuated. President Obama signed a major disaster declaration last weekend, ordering federal aid for the flood-ravaged state, and the Colorado National Guard is at the scene, using 20 helicopters to rescue people trapped by washed-out roads and bridges. Most had been grounded, however, by heavy rains, fog and hampered visibility. ItÕ s been two years since the North Country endured similar conditions following Tropical Storm Irene. People here are still rebuilding and awaiting the final buyout of homes destroyed by Irene. Images of that fateful storm that were published in this newspaper are eerily similar to photos being circulated on news wires from Colorado, with homes underwater and people trapped by disintegrated roads and other infrastructure. In comparison, Tropical Storm Irene dumped upwards of 10 inches of rain on the North Country, much of it in less than a 24-hour period, combined with winds of 69 mph at its center Ñ just 5 mph slower than needed for hurricane status. The storm caused 10 deaths, left 1.1 million people without power and caused $1.3 billion in damages. Locally, the communities of Au Sable Forks, Keene, Jay and Upper Jay were some of the hardest hit, although few communities escaped the stormÕ s wrath. Like in Colorado, President Obama declared a disaster declaration, paving the way for help from the Federal Emergency

Management Agency and the New York National Guard was on site to help devastated communities recover. Blame it on global warming, natural weather cycles or just plain rotten luck, few would argue that our weather has gotten more and more extreme as of late. One hundred year floods seem to be commonplace these days and our aging infrastructure is not liking it. With that in mind, it is imperative that initiatives such as Gov. CuomoÕ s NY Rising Communities be put in place to help communities rebuild in such a way that they are better prepared for the next severe weather incident. If there is one thing history has shown us, it is that the North Country will undoubtedly face again the type of devastating flooding Coloradans are now experiencing. The only way to mitigate the damage is to be realistic in that it will happen again, and begin preparations now knowing where the majority of the damage occurred in the past. While the up to $6 million pledged to the North Country under the governorÕ s NY Rising Communities initiative is a start, it is but a drop in the bucket toward the money needed to shore up the stream banks, bridges, roadways and other pieces of infrastructure that will be impacted by the next severe weather event. In the meantime, on a local level, it is vital to support your first responders as well as the American Red Cross Ñ the individuals who will be at the forefront of coming to your aid. Just as disaster workers from the American Red Cross were deployed here in the North Country in August 2011, the group is now in Colorado, providing food and shelter to those affected by the flooding. More than 250 trained Red Cross disaster workers are currently deployed to Colorado, along with more than 20 emergency response vehicles and six trucks of relief supplies. Working with the Southern Baptist Convention, the Red Cross has served more than 7,100 meals and snacks. Earlier last week, as many as 1,000 people stayed in 24 shelters across the state. People can help by donating to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund by visiting www.redcross.org; calling 1-800-REDCROSS; or simply texting the word REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation. You can also check on the status of a loved one by visiting www.safeandwell.org. People on a national scale came to the aid of New York state and the North Country following Tropical Storm Irene. It is time we return the favor. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Letters to the Editor

Guest viewpoint

Back to school time is a second chance for adult learners

Disturbed

To the Valley News:

Is anyone else out there disturbed by the weekly racist rantings of the Publisher of the townÕ s only newspaper? This time Mr. Alexander likens his being stopped by a policeman for a very good reason--his car resembled that of a vehicle used in a crime, the race of the driver being irrelevant--to the stopping of a black man simply for being black! But then, thatÕ s IT, isnÕ t it, the absurd non-logic that says that, since some black men commit crimes, then all black men are suspects, because they--the guilty and the innocent-RESEMBLE each other? How a presumably educated human being arrives at middle age with such a lack of insight is truly puzzling. That he is the voice of a newspaper is an insult to the publication. Well, maybe heÕ s not the only voice: I urge the Editorial Board of The Valley News to use its own column to separate themselves from their embarrassing Boss--unless, of course, they agree with him. Jeff Kleiman Elizabethtown

Pressline

from page 6 What the letter writer doesnÕ t know is that I have personally known, worked for, admired and hired men and women of all races and skin color during my 59 years on this earth. Each is unique and each has made choices in their lives that either caused them to achieve their goals and find happiness or have kept them from doing so. In nearly every case those who took personal responsibility for their actions, good or bad, were capable of holding their heads high. Those who looked to blame others for their misfortunes always seem to be stuck in the same place and could never place blame on the single person most responsible for holding them back Ñ themselves. Mr. Kleiman, I recognize and respect your effort to put your thoughts in print and for speaking up when you disagreed with my position. Under normal conditions your letter would not have been published were it aimed at anyone other than me, but since IÕ ve chosen to put my views on display it would be unfair for our editor to withhold your views. This country faces many problems and we stand a far better chance of addressing them if we are civil with each other and seek solutions not based on prejudice but on achieving results. I would also be happy to publish your suggestions on solving the violence in many of our troubled New York City neighborhoods and how you would address the racial differences in our country.

F

amilies across the United States are preparing to send their children back to school with new book bags and school supplies. Back to school is also a time for some of the 30 million American adults who cannot read beyond a third grade level to consider taking steps to overcome their literacy challenges. Many of these adults find ways to hide this fact from their coworkers and friendsÑ even their own families. Common avoidance techniques include finding an excuse to steer clear of reading aloud, hiding their writing from others, or committing everything to memory to avoid jotting things down. As children and teens go back to school, this is the perfect time for adults in need of educational services to take this important step to improve their own literacy skills. Being illiterate is not a joke and can be difficult to recognize and admit. Our organization helps adults address their literacy challenges. Trained tutors work one-on-one with adults who need help with basic reading, English-asa-second-language (ESL), and math skills. We also provide literacy programs in local correctional facilities- Moriah Shock, Adirondack in Ray Brook, Bare Hill in Malone, and we recently partnered with Franklin County Jail as well. Literacy Volunteers of Essex/Franklin Counties is an affiliate of Literacy New York, one of the state’s largest nonprofit organizations dedicated to advancing the cause of adult literacy and basic education. Our mission is to enable people over the age of 16 to achieve personal goals through student-centered literacy tutoring. This past year we supported more than 140 adult learners, and trained more than forty volunteer tutors. 67% of our students

Recovery Lounge comes to Pendragon

SARANAC LAKE Ñ Pendragon Theatre will present a Recovery Lounge production, Ò Gruesome Playground Injuries,Ó by Rajiv Joseph on Friday, Sept. 20, and Saturday, Sept. 21, at 8 p.m. Ò Gruesome Playground InjuriesÓ is an emotional roller coaster that begins when Doug and Kayleen meet, wounded, at age 8 in a parochial school infirmary. Through a series of non-linear vignettes that bounce over three decades, this unconventional love story illustrates how complicated, jagged, and sublime the curse of love can be. With local actors Olivia Zeis and Martin Deslauriers, this production, is staged by Recovery Lounge Artistic Director Scott Renderer. Tickets are $15 for adults and $12 for seniors and students. Call 891-1854 for reservations, or tickets online at pendragontheatre.org.

showed academic improvement by at least one grade level. With the new GED© exam we also anticipate a rush of adult learners who would like to receive their High School Equivalency Diploma before the end of the year. ThereÕ s not much time left, and there are only two testing dates available for adults in our region. The new GED © will be more rigorous, computer-based, and access will be limited. Thankfully, the New York State Education Department will offer an alternative high school equivalent exam called the Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC), which should be ready to roll out in early 2014. It too will be more rigorous, but more accessible, and still available in a paper and pencil format. In order to support these adult learners, Literacy Volunteers relies heavily upon dedicated volunteer tutors who provide one-on-one or small group instruction to native and non-native English speakers. Volunteer tutors are patient, compassionate, flexible, and willing to give at least two hours a week to his/her adult learner. Tutors are expected to attend the tutor training prior to being matched with a student. Literacy Volunteers will have three tutor trainings across its two-county service region. At the main office in Port Henry, an orientation will be held on Oct. 1 at 1 p.m. There will be an orientation in Malone on Oct. 7 at 6 p.m., and in the Tri-Lakes region, the orientation will be held on Oct. 15 at 5 p.m. For more information please contact your local Literacy Volunteer office at the following phone number: Port Henry - 546-3008; Tri-Lakes Ð 891-5567; and Malone Ð 483-9366. If you know anyone who could benefit from our services, then suggest they call their local Literacy Volunteers office. Maria Burke Director Literacy Volunteers

Continued from page 1 acres, they will Ò reclaimÓ the land, filling it in and placing topsoil, then seeding the ground. They will then turn the 200 acres back over to the state, along with the 1,500 from the land swap. Several acres of land on the NYCO mine land have already been reclaimed and are indistinguishable from the untouched land around it. Ò The time to do it, if we want to have access to Lot 8, is now,Ó said Mark Buckley, Environmental Health and Safety Officer with NYCO. “There may be a million tons there.Ó Buckley said that while the pit they are currently mining holds about 10 years of reserves, their buyers like to see 20 years worth of reserves in order to consider a mine viable. Without the extra 10 years of reserves, NYCO could face problems in years to come finding buyers for their product. NYCO is mounting a media campaign in order to get their message out to the voters.

Search for Missing man continues in Keene By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com KEENE VALLEY Ñ New York State Police along with the Chicopee, Mass. police are working together in a search for an avid hiker who was last seen in Keene Valley. Scott Haworth, 46, of Chicopee was reportedly last seen Sept. 5 at the Valley Grocer in Keene Valley attempting to cash a check. He was reported missing Sept. 10 by a coworker in Massachusetts when he hadnÕ t been heard from since Aug. 24. Chicopee Police Captain Dan Sullivan said they handed over the search to New York State Police when HaworthÕ s car, a 2002 red Ford Focus, was located Sept. 5 in Keene at a parking area on State Route 73 near the Round Pond trailhead. Haworth is described as 6Õ 0Ó tall with blue eyes and dark and gray hair, weighing approximately 165 lbs. State Police Public Information Officer Jennifer Fleishman said following a search of HaworthÕ s home by Massachusetts police, it was determined that all of HaworthÕ s camping gear was left at his home. Ò His family said he is an avid

hiker, he lives alone and heÕ s been known to go hiking alone,Ó Sullivan said. Ò The only person who might know why he left or why he didnÕ t bring his gear is Haworth.Ó Haworth was reportedly a member of the Adirondack 46ers

club and Fleishman said he was Ò very knowledgeable of the Adirondacks.Ó Ò There is nothing reported that would lead us to believe he had a need to disappear,Ó Fleishman said. Forest Ranger Brian Dubay

said they have been showing photos of Haworth to everyone they meet on the trails and are asking anyone to alert authorities if they see someone resembling Haworth. Ò We are asking for the publicÕ s help to find him,” Dubay said.

Pair of towns seek county assessors By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Supervisors Dan Connell of Westport and Margaret Bartley of Elizabethtown are ready again to talk about hiring the county for their townsÕ assessor services. In May, Connell presented a resolution to the board that would have authorized a contract between the county and the towns of Westport, Elizabethtown and Willsboro for assessor services. After some debate, the resolution was tabled. Connell came back to the table with a new version of the proposal during the Sept. 15 finance committee meeting, with only two of the original three towns Ñ Westport and Elizabethtown Ñ seeking to contract with Essex County. Ò Westport and Elizabethtown would enter into a contract for assessing services with Essex County for one year,Ó Connell said. Ò We would pay at a rate of $14 per parcel for the year, and the whole program would be evaluated at the end of the year.Ó Connell said the plan would require a member of the Real Property Office that is also certified by the state as an assessor to work one day a week in each of the town offices throughout the year trial. A part-time employee would be hired by the county to fill in when the assessor was away from the county offices. Financially, the county would receive roughly $15,600 in revenue, Connell

said, along with the potential for additional funding from the state. Each town would also see a benefit as they would save roughly $3,500 under the proposed system. Ò We are asking the board to give us an opportunity to try this,Ó Connell said. Ò Real property tax would be hiring a part-time person at 19 hours a week. They would be told up front that this is a one-year, part-time position. It gives our two towns an opportunity for a year to look at other options as well.Ó Ò One of the differences is what you pay them in salary per parcel is different than what you pay them in total with benefits,Ó Bartley said on the expected savings to the towns. Ò When you count all of the other parts, we are paying more than $14 a parcel.Ó Westport and Elizabethtown were part of the Certified Assessment Program through the state, along with Willsboro, which expires at

the end of the month. The two towns remaining together have sought applicants to serve a six-year term as sole assessor for the municipalities, but were not impressed with the results. Ò We had people from all over the state apply,Ó Connell said. Ò When we did reference checks and looked at the application, we were not satisfied with the pool that we were presented with.Ó Bartley said towns contracting with their home county for assessing services is something that is happening throughout the state. Ò The Herkimer County Real Property Office is assessing for six towns and is picking up a seventh next year,Ó she said. Ò Schuyler County is doing the assessment services for the entire county. It is something that is changing because it is becoming too difficult at the small-town level to find people to do the job.Ó

‘13 Hall of Fame Patriots end 11 game skid with rout of Hornets class set at AVCS By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE — For the first time, AuSable Valley High School will induct a group of athletes into their Hall of Fame. The 1979-80 boys varsity basketball team will join three new members of the Hall of Fame in ceremonies that will be held Friday, Sept. 20, during halftime of the AuSable Valley varsity football teamÕ s home game against Peru. Coached by John Konowitz, the 79-80 Patriot hoopsters made their way to the Glens Falls regional tournament with a record of 23-4. The team featured five members of the Hall of Fame and was in only team in 45 years of AVCS basketball to win both the CVAC and Section VII championship. Notable wins included Mount Assumption Institute, Plattsburgh High, Malone, Saranac Lake, Ticonderoga and then seventh-ranked Silver Creek, along with wins against the state championship finalists from Vermont, Rice and Essex Junction. Other inductees include:

Tim Snow, Class of 1956, Au Sable Forks High

Snow played on the 1956 sectional finalists, arguably one of the best basketball teams to come out of AFHS. He averaged 10 points a game for a team that finished 16-5. In baseball, he played on two sectional championship teams between 1952-1956. He led the 1956 team to a Section VII/Class A title, hitting .435 and driving in 21 runs in 14 games. He then served in the U.S. Army from 1959 until 1962 where he played on the Fort Carson, Colorado Softball team. In 1958, he became one of the first players to hit three home runs in one CVBL game. He was a member of the 1964 Olympic bobsled team that competed in Innsbruck, Austria. In 1974, he was instrumental in starting the Au Sable Forks Spirits Baseball team and was a player/manager for 11 years. The Au Sable Forks Spirits won five Southern Division Championship titles and three overall CVBL Championships. He has played in the Au Sable Forks Fastpitch Softball Tournament for 19 years and spent the next 24 years umpiring the tournament. Next year will be his 46th year umpiring college and high school games.

Kelly Gordon, Class of 2003

A three-sport athlete, Gordon excelled in football, hockey and baseball. He holds numerous AVCS Football records including the single game rushing yards (281), single game rushing touchdowns (5), single season rushing touchdowns (20), single season rushing yards (1,230) among others. He is the second all-time leading rusher in CVAC history. He continued on to play football at Ithaca College, where he continued to win awards and set records including five career return touchdowns, which tied the Ithaca Bomber all-time school record. He played on several semi-pro football teams including the Plattsburgh North Stars from 2007 until 2009 and the Palmetto Havoc team in 2010 in Myrtle Beach, S.C. In baseball, Kelly also earned many awards including several CVAC first team All-Star awards. He is currently employed at Ithaca High School as a physical education teacher and the head football/strength and conditioning coach.

Keith Brelia, Class of 1982

Brelia was an all-around athlete excelling in basketball, soccer and track. He was a member of the 1979-80 Section VII Champion and Final Four participant basketball team. He played an instrumental role in the semi-final game against heavily favored Ticonderoga drawing a charge with six seconds left and Au Sable clinging to a one point lead. He was a first team all-star varsity soccer player. He still holds the 400 open and the 400 hurdles records in track and field for the school. He has had a distinguished career in the U.S. Army and is currently the Third Brigade Commander of the 98th Division of the U.S. Army Reserves and is the Business Manager and Senior Analyst for Northrop Grumman Information Systems. The inductees will be introduced during halftime of the Sept. 20 game against Peru and will then be further honored with a spaghetti dinner and ceremony Saturday, Sept. 21, at American Legion Post 504 in Au Sable Forks. Festivities begin at 4 p.m. with a cocktail hour, followed by dinner at 5 p.m. and ceremony at approximately 6 p.m. Tickets are available for $10. Please contact Lindsey Bombard at 569-6985 or lindseybombard@yahoo.com for reservations. Those current members of the Hall of Fame that are planning on attending the halftime ceremony on Friday night can contact Jamie Douglass or Scott Bombard in the announcing booth upon arrival so they can be introduced during the ceremony.

CLINTONVILLE Ñ One win can do a lot for a team. For the AuSable Valley Patriots, one win, Sept. 13 against Plattsburgh High, put an end to an 11-game skid and gave the team a shot of momentum heading into a pair of very tough match-ups in the next two weeks. AVCS used a 28-0 second quarter to pull away from the Hornets, scoring a 42-6 victory under their home lights. Ò We were on a slide with no wins and now that is put to bed,Ó head coach Heith Ford said. Ò This is awesome,Ó said quarterback John Goodnough. Ò It has been a while since we got one so this is a good experience for the whole team,Ó receiver Jacob Ashline said. Ò ItÕ s very good for us,Ó running back Dillon Savage added. “It’s the first win in 12 games, so that does a lot to help our mindset to know that we can win.Ó Early in the opening quarter, the game had an appearance of a back-and-forth battle, with Dillon Savage causing a fumble that was re-

turned by Goodnough for a touchdown on the first play from scrimmage in the game, giving the Patriots a 6-0 lead. On the ensuing kickoff, PHS returned the kick for a touchdown, tying the game 6-6 only 31 seconds in. On the first play of the second quarter, Ashline took a handoff and went 15 yards to give the Patriots a 13-6 lead. On their next offensive play, Ashline was on the receiving end of a Goodnough pass, beating his defender and scampering 66 yards to the PHS three. Goodnough then scored on the next play for a 19-6 lead. Ò I looked over and saw that they were playing him tight,Ó Goodnough said. Ò I gave him the audible and he made a great catch.Ó Ò It was just a well-thrown ball,Ó Ashline said. Ò I gave the signal, and he put it right where it needed to be.Ó Goodnough again scored in the second quarter on a 27 yard touchdown run, which was followed by a 16 yard scoring run by Savage two plays after forcing his second turnover of the night. Ò The defense has been playing great,Ó Savage said. Ò We have to tighten up on the penalties, but we have been getting to the holes fast

and shooting the gaps. We still have some work to do.Ó Ò We have been trying to put the focus on defense more this season,Ó Ford said. Ò The guys had a real fresh idea of how to play and where to be on the field.” Goodnough scored the final touchdown of the game with a 25 yard run in the third quarter, while Brandon Nolan recorded a safety in the fourth quarter to cap the 42-6 victory. Goodnough finished 2-of-3 passing for 82 yards, 66 going to Ashline and the other 16 going to Connor Kennedy. He also had 100 yards rushing on eight carries, scoring three times. Savage carried the ball 17 times for 140 yards and one score, while Ashline carried 10 times for 49 yards and Brad Pray added 31 yards on three carries. In all, the Patriots ran for 320 yards and had 402 yards of total offense. The Patriots next host Peru Friday, Sept. 21, followed by their lone Class C game of the regular season against Saranac Lake Saturday, Sept. 29. Ò Peru is a very good team and will be a challenge,Ó Ford said. Ò We will use this to get ready for that Class C game. The focus is on Saranac Lake.Ó

Beware of the crescent moon L

ast week, I had planned to write a column about the effects that moon phases play in triggering animal movements. The story, as I had it framed in my mind, was to focus on autumnÕ s harvest moon, which occurs on Sept. 19 this year. The harvest moon is the full moon that occurs closest to the autumnal equinox. I wanted to compare and contrast the frequency of game movements triggered by the arrival of the harvest moon with those that occur as a result of the hunter moon, which arrives 30 days later on Oct. 22. Many sportsmen, and sportswomen believe the first full moon of autumn marks the beginning of the first period of whitetail wanderlust and the second full moon begins the most intense period of buck activity. Bucks may begin attracting a harem shortly after the harvest moon, but they rarely begin to breed until the hunter moon has passed in October. Predictions for this yearÕ s indicate the dates of Oct. 24 and 25 may be the beginning of the annual rut. According to legend, Native Americans considered the hunters moon to be the Ô medicineÕ that caused deer to be so reckless. As a result of numerous scientific studies, evidence reveals it is actually the diminishing hours of daylight that triggers the whitetailÕ s mating season. I was framing the story in my head last weekend, as I drove back from New York City. We made the long trip south to LaGuardia Airport to send our daughter off on a flight, as she’ll be studying abroad this semester. Rather than deal with the heavy traffic leaving the city on I-87,

I decided to take the Taconic Parkway for part of our trip home. At the sun set, the moon appeared as a silver sliver in the evening sky. And as it sunk slowly below the far horizon in the early evening sky, Venus appeared to be perfectly aligned with the rising moon. But when the moon soon went down below the horizon, the evening sky turned as black as the paved highway. The Taconic features two, two-lane roads that are divided by a narrow strip of land that features occasional sections of vegetation. It is similar to the Northway, but with far more curves, narrow lanes, closer shoulders and a lot more cars. Due to the roads many curves and frequent hills, the high beams of approaching vehicles traveling are often aimed directly at the windshields of vehicles heading in the opposite direction. Visibility is often reduced to near zero while traveling head on into a long string of vehicles going south. And even though the hunterÕ s moon was still a month or more off in the future, the red eyes of a thousand critters were everywhere. Before the pitch black of night completely enveloped the roadway, I had already counted more than 30 road kills. It appeared deer were moving everywhere! They were on the median strip, on the roadside, and even in the pull-over, parking areas. I saw more deer in just a half hour of driving than IÕ ve witnessed in three entire seasons of hunting in the Adirondacks. I also saw raccoons, rabbits, a red and a gray fox or maybe a coyote, several porcupines, and more eyes than I could ever hope to identify. It was truly weird to see so much game on the move. After leaving the Taconic to pick up I-90, the number of eyes reflecting in my headlights began to diminish, but there was still plenty evidence of their passing, and most of it was splattered flat as a pancake on the tarmac. Although no trucks are permitted on the Taconic, there were plenty of 18-wheelers traveling the Thruway. Very little of an animal is left behind after being run over by that many wheels. We made a fast trip through Albany, and soon the time and miles went along at a quick lick from Saratoga Springs to Exit 30. As I turned left off the ramp onto Route 73, the dashboard clock read 2:38 am. The sky was pitch black and yet sparkling with stars. I was getting drowsy and dreaming of a soft bed. After cruising through the infamous intersection of malfunction junction, I saw very few critters, but one of them happened

This dramatic pairing of a brilliant crescent moon with Venus occurred in the night sky over the High Peaks. to be a big doe. I encountered it as I was cruising along the narrow, winding hill that drops down through Chapel Pond Pass. The old doe was piled up dead, in the middle of my lane and with no room to maneuver between the deer and the stonewall that serves as a guardrail. I was forced to drive right over it. Welcome back to the Ô Dacks Ñ thud! The initial contact sent our little Pontiac Vibe airborne, but it was a short liftoff. The vehicle promptly returned to tarmac. I was notified by the screech of rubber as all four tires touched down at once. I will admit it was quite a thrill in the dark of night, following a 16-hour journey to the city and back. I pulled over in a parking lot at the bottom of the hill to inspect the damage, and fortunately, there was no apparent damage to the vehicle. The tin and plastic had survived, but my nerves were shot. For the rest of the journey, I slowed down to a snailÕ s pace. I continued to encounter more spattered critters and I noted many sets of reflecting eyes on the side of the road before I got home. I now believe the best time to be on the hunt is not after the harvest moon, nor even during the timeframe of the hunters moon. It seems to me the ideal time to be out is when the crescent moon first appears in the autumn sky. Unfortunately, it appears about a month before the big game hunting season begins.

APA approves Barber campground expansion in Westport By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com RAY BROOK Ñ Members of the Adirondack Park Agency (APA) Board of Commissioners Friday, Sept. 13 unanimously approved a permit for the expansion of the Barber Homestead Park campground in the town of Westport. The 7-acre campground, located at 68 Barber Lane, is part of a 90-acre parcel owned by the Barber family. It is about 2 miles north of the hamlet of Westport and just north of Camp Dudley. While the property includes 800 feet of shoreline on Lake Champlain, the campground does not have frontage on the lake. Campers, however, are able to use the lake access for launching canoes and kayaks. The Barber permit application, APA Project 2013-111, was discussed during the Regulatory Programs Committee meeting Thursday, Sept. 12 and unanimously passed by Committee members. APA Environmental Program Specialist Tom Saehrig gave a PowerPoint presentation about the project. Barber Homestead Park, LLC first applied

for a campground expansion permit through the town of Westport Planning Board. Members of that Board said the APA needed to address some concerns before issuing a permit, according to Saehrig. The property is located within a Rural Use designation, yellow on the multicolored APA zoning map. There are currently 40 campsites at the Barber Homestead Campground, and the expansion allows for an additional 14 sites Ñ seven drive-in, drive-out sites and seven pull-in, pullout sites. Ò What does that mean?Ó Commissioner Arthur Lussi asked Saehrig about the drive-in, drive-out sites. Ò ItÕ s a different style of campsite, but itÕ s 14 in total,Ó Saehrig said, adding that drive-in, driveout sites are for larger RVs. The APA had first issued a permit for the campground in 1990, and it was one of the first RV campgrounds in the Adirondack Park. During his presentation, Saehrig showed maps and images of the property, plus photos of current campsites, Barber Lane, which was recently paved, and vegetation screening of the camp-

ground from the road. On April 23, Westport Planning Board members said the permit was Ò approvable,Ó according to Saehrig. On June 26, they said, Ò Noise and trespassing have been brought to our attention by neighboring property owners and these issues should be addressed by the APA in issuing the permit.Ó In all, there were eight letters voicing concerns regarding the existing onsite wastewater treatment system, local approvals, overall intensity guidelines, noise, dust odor, trespassing, lake access, the cultural resource evaluation process and the number of proposed recreational vehicle sites. There were also 13 letters of support for the project, describing the positive assets of the campground. The applicant submitted two letters responding to the concerns raised by nearby landowners. After looking at those concerns, the APA staff recommended approving the permit with conditions. Staff consulted the town of Westport and state Department of Health regarding waste-

water concerns. The campgroundÕ s wastewater is served by WestportÕ s municipal wastewater system. Ò The proposed would not overload that system,Ó Saehrig said. APA staff could find no problems with noise at the campground. Ò We have a number of letters saying that this campground is one of the quietest campgrounds,Ó Saehrig said, adding that most of the people who stay there are retirees. Ò We donÕ t believe that these people cause a lot of noise at the campground.Ó Twenty-seven of the 40 sites are currently occupied by campers who stay at the campground all season. Ò Yes, some of the campers are seasonal and renew on an annual basis,Ó Saehrig said. The Barber Homestead Park is located on the Barber Homestead Century Farm.

CATS trail project set in Essex 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 afternoon, Sept. 21 from 12:30 to 4:30 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 hikers can enjoy hiking the trail. The Flatwoods Trail Project begins at 12:30 p.m. and will last until about 4:30 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.
