MCS braces for budget showdown
This Week IN INDIAN LAKE
By Pete DeMola pete@denpubs.com
MINERVA Ñ Minerva Central School faces an uncertain, perhaps even terminal, future. Like other districts in the North Country, the district is feeling the crunch of rising mandates paired with decreasing state aid and a lack of an expandable tax base, a deadly combo that may force the community to take drastic measures to ensure that they still have a school after the clouds clear. Ò WeÕ re running out of time,Ó said Minerva Central School superintendent Tim Farrell after a grim school board meeting on Thursday, March 13 to discuss the future of the district and its 125 students. Ò WeÕ re trying to maneuver through this financial storm the best we can.Ó As the details of the 2014-15 school budget start to emerge, Farrell and the board have arrived at a tentative number at what it will cost to run the school next year, about $5.2 million. Like other public school districts, roughly half of the districtÕ s budget is derived from state aid and the other half comes from property taxes. In the past, the gap between those revenue streams and what was needed to run the school was filled in by state aid. But that aid has been slashed away and MCS, according to numbers crunched by this reporter based on lastÕ s yearÕ s budget paired with the increase in projected state mandates, now faces a significant shortfall of about $580,000. Meet the GEA, the bane of North Country educators. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

Minerva students celebrate Irish pride week By Seth Lang
seth@denpubs.com MINERVA Ñ During the week of March 17 Ð 21, Minerva Central School held its annual Irish Pride Week, with activities and events designed to bring the school together as a community, increase spirit and offer the opportunity for students to Ò give backÓ a little in the form of school service. Organized largely by the MCS Student Council, this yearÕ s Irish Pride Week was particularly successful.
Over the course of this school year, Minerva Central SchoolÕ s Student Council has made a targeted effort to increase school spirit and pride in Minerva, starting with class competitions on the afternoon of Community Service Day back in October. Spirit has been encouraged since then with themed dress up days in which students earn points for their class by wearing clothing and/or accessories centered on a timely topic or event. For example, students dressed in black for Friday the 13th in December and wore the colors or sported a flag of a country in the Olympics at

the end of January. It is no doubt partially due to those themed days that student involvement in Irish Pride Week dress days was well over 75 percent. Nearly all students were wacky and tacky on Monday March 17 and dressed according to their classÕ chosen theme on Tuesday. Any visitor walking into the building on Wednesday March 19 would have been hard pressed to find a student not wearing sleepwear for Pajama Day, always a popular event. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

NORTH CREEK Ñ State Sen. Greg Ball is asking animal lovers to sign a petition calling for a statewide animal cruelty registry. The call for the petition followed the sentencing of an Albany resident who plead guilty to leaving three puppies to die on railroad track in the Albany area in 2013. The man will be added to the Albany County animal abuse registry so that he will no longer be able to purchase or adopt a pet in the county. Outside of Albany County however, he would currently be able to adopt or purchase animals.
The state-wide animal abuse registry was passed by the State Senate last year but failed to get through the State Assembly. Ò I voted last year in support of legislation expanding Buster’s Law and if it comes to the floor this year, will do so again,Ó said state Sen. Betty Little. The registry would contain the names and addresses of persons convicted of violating BustersÕ s Law in New York State and allow easy access to the public and provide that information to those involved in the sale or adoption of animals before allowing an individual to take ownership of an animal. Even more, those who have been convicted of abusing and torturing animals would also have to undergo a required psychiatric
evaluation and would be banned from ever owning pets again. Although BusterÕ s Law currently only applies to individuals who have killed or caused serious injury to companion animals such as dogs, cats or other pets, there are several pending bills that would expand the law to protect all animals, including farm animals and wildlife as well as failure to feed, water and provide shelter to animals. When asked about the registry, Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting said thereÕ s room for improvement within the proposed law. CONTINUED ON PAGE 2

State to resolve property dispute issues in Long Lake
Owners will have 90 days to inform DEC if they want to be part of the settlement
LONG LAKE Ñ More than 200 property owners in the Town of Long Lake will receive letters asking if they want to resolve title issues to their properties as part of the Township 40 settlement, the State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) announced today. The letters include a notarized statement form that must be returned to DEC within 90 days by any landowner who wants to be included in the settlement. New York State voters approved a constitutional amendment last November that allows owners of the disputed properties to notify DEC whether they want their land parcel to be included in the Township 40 settlement. The State will release claims on
properties whose owners Ò opt inÓ to the settlement. Those owners will have to sign a notarized statement, included with the letter, and will then be required to make a payment to the Town of Long Lake within one year. Ò The passage of the Township 40 constitutional amendment was an important step to resolve land disputes dating back more than 100 years,Ó DEC Commissioner Joe Martens said. Ò Property owners receiving this letter will have the chance to settle the land claims or they may choose not to be part of the settlement. We encourage people to review the letter, along with the additional information, so they can make an informed choice.Ó In Raquette Lake, there are 216 properties, including homes, businesses and public buildings, with unclear titles to land totaling more than 1,000 acres. Under the approved constitutional amendment and implementing legislation that took effect January 1, 2014, owners of the disputed parcels can make a payment
to the Town of Long Lake to obtain clear title to their property. The payments will be used to purchase lands that will be added to the State Forest Preserve. The letter explains the process, asks if the property owner wants to be part of the settlement, and includes forms to either Ô opt-inÕ or Ô opt-outÕ of the settlement. If the form is not returned to DEC within 90 days of its receipt, the ownerÕ s parcel will automatically be Ò opted-outÓ of the settlement and referred to the Attorney General. The settlement requires the Attorney General to file legal action to determine who has title to “opted-out” properties. A list of frequently asked questions about the settlement and settlement process is included with the letter. DEC has also set up an e-mailbox at township40@gw.dec.state.ny.us so people can submit Township 40 related questions; or they can contact Rob Morrell at DEC at (518) 402-9442.

Victoria Moore, left, and Cheyenne Wilder, right, were recently chosen to attend the Rotary’s Youth Leadership Program at Skidmore College. This program concentrated on the fundamentals of leadership, ethics of positive leadership, communication skills in effective leadership, problem solving and conflict management, rotary’s purpose and service to the community, building self-confidence and self-esteem, and the elements of community and global citizenship.
Ò I agree in theory with the Animal Abuse Registry, however, as I understand this legislation, it applies only to those who have violated BusterÕ s Law. This does not apply to farm animals and does not cover areas such as failure to feed, water and provide shelter for animals,Ó said Cutting. “We, as a society definitely need to provide better protection to our animal population. They deserve protection from malicious harm as well as neglect. This can be done by more comprehensive laws designed to punish offenders and make offenses carry more legal weight than the outdated and archaic laws that we have to deal with now,Ò he said. Another bill called the Consolidated Crime Bill would cover all animals and move these crimes from the Agriculture and Markets statutes to the normal penal system, allowing harsher punishments for offenders. The New York statutes within this law comprise the stateÕ s anti-cruelty provisions. Ò AnimalÓ includes every living creature except a human being. Ò I understand the intent of the consolidated animal crimes bill, which is to bring more of the statutes currently in the agriculture law into the penal code. That would make enforcement clearer for the police and the courts. What IÕ m not sure of is how that could affect farmers who raise livestock for processing. Pet abuse, animal abduction, animal fights should all be in the penal law,Ó said Little. Executive Director of the North Country SPCA
and Essex County Animal Cruelty Task Force member Jessica Hartley said the registry would be a positive for the region and that the state needs to protect all animals. Ò A state-wide animal abuse registry is certainly a step in the right direction toward addressing the issue of animal cruelty. For the North Country SPCA and other animal welfare organizations, the registry would act as an additional safeguard to ensure that the animals we adopt out are being placed in loving homes.Ó Hartley also went on to say the SPCA would support any legislation to expand the registry beyond just those convicted of violating BusterÕ s Law. Ò Extending the registry to people who abuse farm animals and wildlife, as well as those who are guilty of neglecting their animals, would be far more effective in reducing the incidents of animal abuse in our communities,Ó she said. Hartley said one of the most important things that needs to be done is educate people. Ò Continuing to educate people about the proper treatment and care of their animals will go a long way toward stopping the types of abuse and neglect cases that we see.Ó The majority of officials agree that the link between animal cruelty and other violent crimes is significant and by taking crimes against animals more seriously, law makers would also make strides toward increasing overall public safety. Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague believes cruelty laws are heading in the right direction.

MCS
Continued from page 1 The Gap Elimination Adjustment (GEA) is a device designed in 2010 by Gov. David Paterson to help the state eliminate a $10 billion deficit. Since then, the deficit has been eliminated but the GEA remains in place. Every year, the state includes the GEA in the budget. Each year, it siphons away state aid to schools. And each year, educators lobby state representatives to repeal it Ñ or at least chip away at it. Additional stressors on school districts include a rise in health insurance premiums, benefit increases, rising energy costs and the property tax cap, which is currently locked at a tad under two percent. “Our financial picture started to change between four and five years ago,Ó said Farrell. Ò Some years, that loss amounted to a quarter-million out of a $5 million budget. WeÕ re using reserves as a stopgap, but we donÕ t know how long we can hold on.Ó Since the GEAÕ s implementation, MCS has lost nearly $850,000. Last year was the worst yet, said Farrell. For the 2013-2014 budget, the district cut $300,000 to stay afloat. The district lost some half-time employees — including a pre-k teacher and physical education teachers Ñ and reduced some elective programs. Districts can lean on their fund balance as a survival float, but those funds are not self-replenishing. The districtÕ s fund balance Ñ accumulated monies that act as a shock absorber against unexpected expenses or revenue shortfalls that could cause an operating deficit — is now critical and will likely be depleted by the end of the upcoming budget year.
Capitol countdown
At the state level, North Country lawmakers are unified in calling for a repeal of the GEA. Assemblyman Dan Stec, a co-sponsor of legislation that would have eliminated the GEA for fiscally distressed school districts in 2014 and phased out the GEA for all other school districts over the next two years, said the total number of funds kicked back over the schools would have be about $700 million. Ò The GEA was the most disappointing item in the GovernorÕ s budget proposal this past January,Ó Stec told the News Enterprise in a phone call in between budget negotiations in Albany. Ò Myself, Assemblywoman Janet Duprey and State Senator Betty Little are all in agreement that the GEA is really bad for our schools and we need a more aggressive timeline to wrap it up.Ó
Irish pride
Continued from page 1 Students even went so far as to recruit teachers to dress with them on various days, increasing enjoyment and that sense of community for all. Irish Pride Week activities were not limited to dressing up, however. Student Council members also hosted the Ò Minerva Marketplace,Ó where elementary students could use leprechaun dollars to create take-home crafts, buy snacks and toys, and play arcade games for prizes. The concert band performed musical

JOHNSBURG — 7 p.m. “You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown” to be performed by Johnsburgh Central School students at 7pm in the Johnsburg Auditorium. The story line is a typical day in the life of Charlie Brown and the cast consists entirely of Johnsburg high school students.

BLUE MT. Lake — 1 p.m. “Feet, Hooves, and Rails: Transportation in Nineteenth Century America” at the museum auditorium. This lecture follows the development of transportation from the pre-industrial period to the introduction of the combustion engine in the early twentieth century. Free admission.
While school officials don’t anticipate a full reinstatement of the gap this year, said Stec, they have arrived at a figure somewhere between $400-$500 million to keep them float. The exact number will not be made public until the final state budget is hashed out before the end of the month. In Albany on Thursday, March 20, 59 people were arrested outside of Little’s office in a non-violent protest against a panoply of issues, including the GEA. Ò The past few years have been very challenging and I understand the frustration of parents, teachers and school administrators,Ó Little told the News Enterprise in an email message. Ò When Democrats controlled the Senate and Assembly, they enacted this budget-cutting measure that has impacted rural schools much more than urban ones. It created a big hole.Ó Little said the state senate has been adding funding each year to fill the deficit. Ò Our budget proposal includes $541 million for the GEA, $217 million more than the GovernorÕ s proposal and $174 million more than the AssemblyÕ s plan,Ó she said. Ò With work continuing on the budget, I continue to advocate that the state address the gap as quickly as possible. Ideally, it should be eliminated altogether, but there are lawmakers from other parts of the state who donÕ t share that priority.Ó
End game
In Minerva, the next budget workshop is scheduled for Thursday, March 27. Farrell said this when the board will start making the tough decisions: What to cut, how much to cut and if the district will ask the voters for a tax hike. Last May, voters opted against an 8.93 percent tax increase, a decision that would have exceeded the allowable levy limit and required a 60 percent voter approval. At a second vote the following month, they approved a 2.97 percent increase, which was 1 percent below the allowable levy limit. Ò Another supermajority vote would be risky,Ó said Farrell. Ò I canÕ t say strongly enough that I understand tax levy increases are not popular: people have limited incomes and they donÕ t want to be taxed anymore than they have to.Ó The school’s target date to hash out the final budget is Thursday, April 10. Farrell provided the board a list of items under consideration for removal. Ò We can only cut so far and still have a quality program,Ó he said. Ò ItÕ s easy to cut on paper, but not so easy to maintain the programs with proper support that students need to be successful.Ó
selections for the elementary students as well, after which they held an instrumental Ò petting zooÓ in which students were able to sample brass, woodwind and percussion instruments for themselves. As in past years, students practically took over the Lake George bowling alley for afternoons of elementary and MS/HS bowling fun. Irish Pride week was capped off by a day of service and class competitions. The main focus of service activities was on MCS itself: to clean and organize areas of the school building, create sets for the upcoming performance of the musical Annie and conduct a major
recycling effort. Students also helped out in elementary classrooms and created signs for upcoming community service days. Service day culminated in a second round of class competitions in which middle and high school students vied for points in various Irish-themed activities. The Student CouncilÕ s work did not end with Irish Pride Week. They are already making plans for more spirit days and some sort of field day to occur in late spring. So far, their efforts have paid off with the establishment of an atmosphere of spirit which will hopefully continue for years to come.

In the past half-decade, the district has cut academic programs, including physical education, elementary reading and driverÕ s ed, hacked away non-instructional staff like aides and janitorial staff and held the line at upgrading their facilities and supply cachets.
Community response
A local grassroots group, Minerva CARES, has sprouted from the crisis to raise awareness and lobby officials in Albany. Ò The situation is very critical and itÕ s frustrating,Ó said Sue Montgomery-Corey, a member of the group. Ò The school has followed all mandates and tried to play by the rules Ñ weÕ re getting seriously hurt and itÕ s very sad.Ó Ò The state ending GEA would be giving us money they already owe us,Ó said Danae Tucker, a concerned parent and Minerva CARES member. Ò The school has really struggled to see what they can cut without compromising the students. I hope the community will stand behind the kids Ñ the school is the heart of the community and it needs to be here. Keeping the kids here, and not tuitioning them out to another district, is top priority.Ó Farrell said it might come to that: Ò If we couldnÕ t provide the standards of quality, that may be a possibility,Ó he said. Ò But I hope we would never have to go that far.Ó Ò Minerva should really be commended,Ó said Stec. Ò TheyÕ ve done an outstanding job with their outreach. TheyÕ ve been very proactive and advocacy can only help. Sometimes the squeaky wheel gets the oil Ñ and thatÕ ll make Albany take another look.Ó

North Country reps need to Why should we do this? be mindful of our needs B
T
hey may very well have had a point. Last Friday, local teachers and parents stood outside the Glens Falls and Plattsburgh offices of New York State Sen. Elizabeth “Betty” Little to protest a pair of key issues when it comes to education funding within the state. The first issue is easy enough: Why would anyone in the North Country care about funding for charter schools? Those who have come out in support of passing funding to the publicly paid for, but independently run, academies that, according to the state Department of Education, Ò create and sustain excellent educational options for New York State families on behalf of the Board of Regents through high quality charter school authorizing, fair and transparent oversight of all charter schools, and the dissemination of innovative school designs and practices.Ó Sounds great, but the closest charter school for North Country students is located in Troy or Albany, a one-plus hour drive for our southern-most readers and almost three hours for those by the Canadian border. So there are no charter schools in the district that Little represents, which makes it very easy to understand why teachers and parents are upset with Little voting in favor of bills that would shift funding away from public schools and toward charter institutions. Sen. Little, you represent a district that has no charter schools and therefore should be mindful of the needs of your constituents. Little has been a champion for business rights within the Adirondack Park. She has brought millions in grant funding to towns in desperate need of infrastructure repairs and was on the front lines of Tropical Storm Irene relief. All these things she was praised for, but many families watching their taxes go up and their quality of education go down as teachers lose their jobs are losing their patience when they hear about the glory of charter schools they have no chance of sending their children to. This leads to another issue, one Little has said recently she is trying to help eliminate: the Gap Elimination Adjustment. Under Former Gov. David Paterson, the GEA was used to balance a state budget that was out of control according to Albany lawmakers. It continued under Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who swore the budget would get better. Guess what, it has, as Cuomo touts a budget surplus that will be realized in the next two years. Congratulations! The GEA worked and now we can go back to business as usual. Ehh, not so fast. Both Cuomo and the legislature are dragging their feet on this one, wanting to keep the money that should be going to local public schools away or moving it into charter schools. What does this mean for local schools? Elizabethtown-Lewis Superintendent Scott Osborne said his school has cut all that they can without affecting the quality of education provided to students and the fund balance will shortly dry up. He almost drops to his knees whenever he talks about the desperate need to restore the GEA. Minerva Central School has already started to look at consolidation of high school services with Johnsburg because of the strain put on them by a state budget that gives them less money yet asks them not to raise more than the two percent tax cap. In Glens Falls, the district is looking to fill a gap that is over $3 million while knowing money that is supposed to come to them is being held captive by lawmakers, including herself. We all know people in the North Country feel, at times, their voice is not heard in Albany. Little has been someone who has helped overcome that stigma, and local families are asking for that help again. That is why they are protesting at her offices, because they feel she can affect change for them. So, to all of our local officials at the state level, keep in mind the needs of local students and schools this budget season, help to eliminate the GEA and keep money coming to our school children and not urban charter schools.

From the Editor
Seeking historical information To the News Enterprise: In 1917 the 80-acre Ross Lake, appeared for the first time. It was near Sodom, N.Y. in the Town of Johnsburg. Ellsworth Ross, with financial help from his brother, Hosea, built the large dam with laid up stone slabs and cobble fill in 1916. The Ross brothers were establishing a “resort” for fishing and hunting. A news article at the time called it the Ò New Adirondack Gem.Ó The Ross Family originally settled in that place a few years after the Revolutionary War. Some of the other male names in the family were: Samuel Ross, Hiram, Willard, Taylor, and William. I am gathering information and pictures about the Ross Farm,
Ramblings By Evelyn Greene
I
t took a niece from Manhattan to notice a very rare visitor to our feeding roof (over the carport) one night recently. She was sitting on the steps next to the glass door when she noticed movement. She assumed it was a squirrel, not knowing our red and gray squirrels are diurnal. Another soon joined it and they had their backs to us as they gobbled up the remains of the seeds, completely ignoring the excitement inside. Their fluffy tails hung down over the edge of the roof. This was the first time we have had (or noticed) these charming, flying ghosts (charming unless they are living in your attic!). As flying squirrels are nocturnal, I have seen them only rarely up till now. Once I leaned on a dead snag back in the High Peaks and a whole group exploded out of a cavity. Whoa, what a delightful surprise. For years afterwards I knocked on every snag I walked by but had no luck. Then walking down River Road one time I pushed on a rotten poplar snag and there was another explosion. Flying squirrels are tame/bold maybe because through the eons they have not had to tangle with humans very often. (Tundra birds act the same way.) If they can get to your suet, they donÕ t mind your watching them in the light from the house from inches away. And they are beautiful, with white fur underneath and big, round black eyes. People who have raised them say they make friendly, even affectionate, pets though you have to be nocturnal too to know that. Ours are probably Northern Flying Squirrels, which weigh up to 4.4 ounces (red squirrels are 8 ounces). Southern Flying Squirrels live up to the 1,000 foot elevation, are smaller, much more carnivorous, and store nuts. Northerns live on lichens, mushrooms, seeds and buds. In the winter Northerns often nest communally during the day, up to 19 of them in a tree cavity according to Andy Saunders who wrote our mammal bible, Adirondack Mammals. Of course they don’t really fly—they glide. They have loose skin that is connected between wrist and ankle, with a cartilage extension beyond the wrist for extra sail, and their tails are flattened side to side with the hairs growing out parallel to each other, looking and acting rather like a feather. They jump out from high up on a tree making a square shape, and can steer using the tail as a rudder, landing upright low on a tree, which they climb up for another flight. They have been known to glide for 300 feet, even managing to get some lift, by adjusting their legs and tail angles. They do run along the ground too. Tracks in fluffy snow are always hard to distinguish, but if there is a sitzmark out in the middle of an open area, or fresh tracks very early in the morning that are a little different from red squirrel, you may have the flyers in your territory. Put out some pecans, their favorite food, after dark and you might have some very special visitors.

Q of the month
“If you could have one superpower, which one would you want, and how would you use it?” Mrs. MosherÕ s Grade 2 Johnsburg Central School Mia Connelly - I would get the power of making air poisonous in some places. If I could do that I could eliminate all the bad people in the world and it would not spread to others. Caroline Williams - I would choose to be invisible because I could hide so my sisters couldnÕ t find me. Plus, I could sneak food when I wanted to. Aidan Perez - I would choose flying because then I could spy on everyone in the whole world. Brian Burhardt - I would be strong like spiderman and save the city. I could shoot webs at bandits. Minnie Bibby - I would be using posers to make wishes come true. I would use them because I have a lot of wishes that I want to come true. Corbin DeGroat - I would read peoples minds because if they are thinking something bad about me I would say Ò stop thinking something bad about me!Ó Scott Patton - I wish I had super vision so I can see through walls to keep crooks from hurting innocent people. Angelo Galle - I would choose heat vision so if my house is on fire and I am stuck in a room, I would burn the stuff that holds the door up. Alesha Johnston - I would choose a sonic hearing superpower so when I am far away from my parents I can hear them. Helena Batha - I would choose flying because I can fly to Hawaii. I could also fly all over the world, including China and Japan. Orlando Conlon - I would choose flying and I would fly to my house and Walmart to buy and iPhone 4. I would go to Golden Coral and take my dad on a field trip to Africa to see the African penguin and the lions.

Fly Fishing
Conservation
Trout season starts very soon. The waters around our By Rich Redman neck of the woods, will likely still be in the hard state, so traveling south is a viable option. Check out the Farmington River in Connecticut and the trout streams in Pennsylvania. As Buffet saysÕ Ò a change of latitude, and change of attitudeÓ ! Lower elevation streams will warm sooner than high mountain or hill streams so check out a stream guide before you venture out. You will get water temps, flows in CFS and suggested flies to use. With the storm systems that have hit the mid -south section of the east, you have got to check ahead to find the stream conditions, this wonÕ t be an average year. Rainbow trout will be doing their thing very soon, so check out the Salmon River and other Lake Ontario tribs, as well as the tribs to Lake Erie and other inland lakes and streams that have Ò bowÓ runs. Lake Ontario doesnÕ t freeze over, and the climate along the lake is a little mellower than we have, so it would be a good first choice. According to my western NY sources, Lake Erie is solid, and snow still covers the ground near the Cattaraugus. So things may get hopping a few weeks later little late this year. Then again, Mother Nature can throw another curve ball and we can go to instant summer and things will change fast. Once we get a few warm rains and the streams come up, get your waders on and be prepared for some combat fishing! April, 16, 2014- Lake ChamplainÕ s Trout Unlimited Chapter will have a fly casting seminar to show new stream fishing water whippers how to cast a fly line and fly with finesse. Trout Unlimited, TU, will have rods and reels on hand, so both young and old can learn the beauty of fly fishing. The class is open to anyone 12 years and older, and parents are encouraged to participate with their children, fishing is a family event. For more information, contact Janice Opal at jopal@ charter.net Saturday, March 29 American Museum of Fly Fishing in Manchester Vermont. Learn to tie flies with Paul Sinicki and Kelly Bedford. Learn how to make a practice rod and tie a clown fly. Feel free to contact Christina Cole at ccole@amff.com or by calling the Museum at 802-362-3300 with any questions!

Indian Lake third grade elementary students perform play
By Seth Lang
seth@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE Ñ Third grade students at Indian Lake Central School performed a play recently to meet Parents As Reading Partners Program recommendations. The Parents As Reading Partners Program, or PARP, is a voluntary effort of the school or local community which includes parents, students, administrators, teachers and staff in a collaborative partnership whose focus is on reading that can be run for little or no cost. Students first fill out a passport of the different genres including animal fiction, biography, history, fiction, fairy tale/nursery rhyme and drama. Upon seeing a booklet of plays, third grader Kaylie Norton immediately saw one called the Snow Queen, adapted by Michael
T. Leech. The movie Ò FrozenÓ was based off the Hans Christian story. Kaylie came up with the idea of performing the play with her classmates and invite other students to enjoy it. After showing it to third grade teacher Mrs. Norris, they agreed it would be a perfect fit for the Drama component of PARP. In collaboration with Band Teacher Jason Dora and Librarian and Media Specialist George DeChant the play was acted out by several 8 and 9-year-old third graders with much success. DeChant offers afterschool activities like a paper airplane club, dance club, and puppet club but when Kaylie asked him to have a play club she was ecstatic and immediately cast the play. The PARP closing ceremony is Monday, March 31. There will be an Olympic competition in the gym from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.

Gov. Cuomo announces funding to implement land access seth@denpubs.com
INDIAN LAKE Ñ Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo recently announced the latest phase of New York StateÕ s acquisition of 69,000 acres to the State Forest Preserve formerly owned by Finch Pruyn & Company of 8,451 acres located in Fulton, Hamilton Warren and Essex counties, as well as $875,000 in available grants for projects to develop sites allowing access to the land. Chairman of the Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Bill Farber said, Ò We strongly support the governorÕ s vision that these lands should provide broad recreational opportunities for all recreational users. This investment of funds from The Nature Conservancy assures that the towns have the opportunity to connect the recreational opportunities back to their local economies.Ó Chairman of the Essex County Board of Supervisors Randy Douglas said, Ò We in Essex County are very happy that Governor Cuomo has stood true to his word once again in providing funding that will improve the economic
climate in our small rural towns within Essex County. This $875,000 will help improve the quality of the lands and help us promote their natural beauty. I canÕ t thank the governor enough for his vision in helping us make the North Country a worldwide tourist attraction.Ó The lands acquired from the properties formerly owned by Finch Pruyn & Company will protect miles of waterways and open spaces. To better improve the recreational and economic opportunities available, the $875,000 in grants will fund hiking, horseback riding trails, biking, snowmobiling and connector trails, as well as smart growth planning in the region. The State will pay $5.7 million to acquire the tracts from The Nature Conservancy, using the StateÕ s Environmental Protection Funds. Already, the state has completed two acquisition phases totaling 30,037 acres. The 14 new parcels contain miles of rivers and streams, ponds, wildlife habitat and trails, and offer exceptional opportunities for hiking, wildlife viewing, cross country skiing and mountain biking. New YorkÕ s Natural Heritage Trust, in conjunction with The Nature Conservancy and DEC, is offering grants to local municipalities to
support the implementation of projects that will enhance public access to the acquired land. In addition, EPF grants will be available to advance smart growth principles of economic development and environmental protection. Specifically, these grants for community development in the Adirondack Park consist of: • $500,000 for Adirondack Park Upper Hudson Recreation Hub Grants program projects, including: seasonal shuttle service for hikers, bikers and paddlers; trailhead parking and waterway access on municipal lands; local infrastructure that supports such recreation uses as mountain biking, horse trail riding, snowmobiling and hiking; connector trails; hut-to-hut accommodations; guide services; and visitor orientation signs, apps and brochures. These grants are being funded by TNC and will be awarded through a Request for Proposals (RFP) to be announced this week in the NYS Contract Reporter and also on the DEC, TNC and NHT websites. • $300,000 from the EPF for the Adirondack Smart Growth grant program will support key projects to build on existing smart growth plans, including capital projects and community de-
velopment initiatives that foster sustainable development, environmental protection and community livability. • $75,000 to support paddling events, which builds on the success of the 2013 Adirondack Challenge, which led to increased tourism across the region. A Request for Applications is expected to be released in early spring. Assemblyman Dan Stec said, Ò This funding will provide our local governments the opportunities to promote economic development and to enhance recreational opportunities for the residents and visitors of the North Country. Tourism is the economic engine for the Adirondacks.Ó The tourism industry is projected to have added 24,800 jobs in 2013, a 3.1 percent increase from 2012, which double the national average. In total, leisure and hospitality is projected to have finished the year with 818,700 jobs, making tourism the third fastest growing job sector in New York State.

denpubs@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK Ñ As a volunteerÐ run community service organization, the Adirondack Community Outreach Center (ACOE) in North Creek has a very noble and much needed mission, and it requires lots of support in order to achieve it. The mission: To help ensure local availability of human and social services by providing both support and physical space for various programs and services. The ACOE would like to thank several organizations and individuals for their wonderful support regarding its effort to make improvements to its Clothing Center. A major project completed last year replaced the Clothing Center floor and included other changes to
make it a more comfortable space. A generous donation from Barton Mines was matched by the generosity of the Glens Falls Foundation to replace the old flooring, install a dehumidifier, and place a french drain system. The Glens Falls Foundation has a long history of supporting the Outreach, dating back to the inception of the organization, when the Foundation funded a majority of the original work done in the building. Flooring removal was accomplished by a number of individual volunteers, but in particular Reverend Wayne Schoonmaker, Alan Frasier, and Austin Frasier; this help saved the ACOC over $1,300. The wonderful new dehumidifier was funded by a grant from the North Creek Rotary. The Clothing Center at the Outreach is now an attrac-
tive and healthy space for both volunteers and shoppers. The Center served 2302 clients in 2013, with 20 volunteers donating an average of 127 hours per month for a spectacular grand total of 1529 volunteer hours during the year! Gently used clothing and linens are always welcome as donations Ð these items are offered free at the Clothing Center. A donation of $1 is requested for clothing in the Ò boutiqueÓ area of the Center. All clothing donations are carefully sorted, with only good, clean, and serviceable items offered up for availability. The ACOC is all about neighbors helping neighbors. To find out more about how you can volunteer or help out in some way, pleas contact the Outreach Center by phone at 251-3481 or online via mailto:clothing@ adkoutreach.org.
