NY-21 race: Derrick hits Stefanik on trade policy Trans-Pacific Partnership takes center stage in congressional race By Pete DeMola
pete@suncommunitynews.com
Derrick
PLATTSBURGH — The TransPacific Partnership has emerged as a central issue in New York’s 21st Congressional District. The opening salvo was fired last week by Mike Derrick, who is
challenging Rep. Elise Stefanik (RWillsboro) for the seat, with the rollout of the first campaign ad of the 2016 cycle. In the 30-second spot, Derrick said he agrees with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in opposing the proposed trade agreement between the U.S. and 11 Pacific Rim nations. “I don’t support Trump, but he’s right that we need to stop the jobkilling TPP deal, and take on both parties in Washington,” Derrick
said. Derrick, a Democrat, criticized Stefanik for what he said was her support of the agreement, calling it an “unfair trade deal similar to NAFTA that will ship jobs overseas and hurt this region’s families who desperately need more economic opportunity and growth.” The Stefanik camp called the ad “false” and an attempt to deceive voters about the freshman lawmaker’s record.
Bolton middle schooler returns from DC Leadership program a hit, hopes to share knowledge with classmates By Christina Scanlon

BOLTON — A week in Washington, D.C. earlier this month brought unique educational, social and memorable experiences to last a lifetime for a rising a seventh grader from Bolton Central School. Gabrielle Mowery was selected for the 2016 Junior National Young Leaders conference after the nomination by her English teacher, Lori Humiston. “It was amazing. It so much fun,” Mowery said, recalling the long days and late nights jampacked with activities throughout the week. “My favorite part, I think I’d have to say, was meeting everyone,” she said. Middle school students from all over the country took part in the week-long program with a focus on hands-on activities to build the students’ leadership skills.

This weekend’s Jamboree to offer fun for all ages
By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
WARRENSBURG — A carnival-style event that has been embraced by both children and adults for more than two generations returns to Warrensburg this weekend. The Smokeeaters’ Jamboree is celebrating its 55th anniversary as
its events unfold Friday July 29 and Saturday July 30 on the Warrensburg Recreation Field on Library Avenue. As the primary fundraiser for the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co., the Jamboree features carnival rides, a midway, an auction, topname entertainment, a barbecue, fireworks and games of chance. Due to popular demand, the renowned rock ‘n roll band “The AudioStars” are booked again this year for Saturday beginning at 6:30 p.m., fire company president Kevin Geraghty said this week. “The AudioStars always get the crowd going,” he said. The gates open at 6 p.m. Friday. While youth enjoy the midway and various games, adults can cast bids beginning at 6:30 p.m. in an auction of donated new and used goods and services. For decades, Jim Galusha of Thurman has served as auctioneer. Among the valuable items to be auctioned are a working player piano with plenty of music rolls, an oak desk with a roll-up top, a Sunbird inboard boat in good condition with a trailer, an antique Edison crank record player in working order, and over 1,000 vintage vinyl records. Dozens of gift certificates from area enterprises include everything from a meal at Willows Bistro to a flight for two on a vintage plane, courtesy of Alexander Funeral Home, Geraghty said.
“The generous local business owners have continued to support us as they have for many years,” he said. Amusing the children on Friday will be Freckles the Clown and juggler “Incredible Larry.” A new feature of the Jamboree will be a karaoke contest on Friday— with cash prizes and open to all attending, Geraghty said. “This is a chance for local vocalists to have fun and enjoy their own 15 minutes of fame,” he said, noting that karaoke may have an encore session Saturday. The karaoke will be conducted by AfterFX deejay service, featuring regional radio personality Lee Pecue accompanied by Chip Aldrich — and they’ll be providing music both evenings. Adults annually enjoy placing bets on the roulette-style money wheels, and they test their skill and luck at the blackjack tables. Children traditionally amuse themselves with carnival rides and a midway. There’s an entrance donation of $5 per person on Saturday and $3 on Friday. Saturday, gates open at 5 p.m. as the Warrensburg firefighters are hosting a chicken barbecue. Among the hundreds of people attending the barbecue will be members of Warrensburg High School’s Class of 1976, observing their 40th reunion. The AudioStars and After FX will doubtlessly playing music from the 1970s to fuel their fun. Entertainment for youth this second night will be Roscoe the Clown and the Joey D Magic Show. Saturday’s events include fireworks at dusk, Geraghty said.

Lake George’s Stormwater, septic regulations to be discussed By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE GEORGE — How the town regulates its citizenry’s discharge of stormwater and sewage will be the subject of two public hearings at its Aug. 8 meeting. At 5:30 p.m. on that date, the town board is to hear public opinion on town codes Chapter 147, which specifies what residents can’t discharge of into the town stormwater collection system; and Chapter 148, required stormwater controls for property owners. The second public hearing at 6 p.m. focuses on amendments to the town septic regulations, town Code Chapter 115 — which updates specifications for town residents’ on-site septic systems. All three ordinances have been drafted to comply with existing state laws, according to Lake George Town Planning Director Dan Barusch. The public hearings were set at the July town board meeting, during which Barusch announced that the town’s septic initiative program was about 15 percent complete. This project entails preparing an which inventory and mapping on-site private septic systems. The state has awarded the $104,000 towards the project, to be conducted primarily by the FUND for Lake George. The FUND has pledged $25,000 towards the initiative to help property owners upgrade their
septic systems. Also, Barusch advised the board that the town may soon be drafting a local law regulating how stormwater is managed at a construction site before, during and after the work occurs. Barusch added that the town’s existing stormwater regulations may need to be modified by March 2017 to reflect new state requirements. In other business, town leaders voted to waive the town’s subdivision requirements in their zoning ordinances in order for the municipality to expedite their potential acquisition of two parcels of land — a four-acre plot on which the town transfer station stands — but presently owned by the village — and the six acres of land beside the town hall, for a proposed town park. Town board member Dan Hurley reported that the wastewater flow from the Caldwell Sewer District to the village sewer treatment plant had decreased by 2 million gallons last month as compared to the same period last year.
Rte. 9 Gateway Project is progressing
Barusch announced that the Route 9 Lake George Gateway Project construction was three to four weeks ahead of schedule, well under budget, and 30 percent complete. The Gateway project is the reconstruction of Route 9 northward nearly a mile from its intersection with 9L. — See more at suncommunitynews.com

Skaters, Lk. Geo. officials recall long road to L.G. skate park’s debut Park’s christening attracts nearly 200 By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE GEORGE — Frankie Cavone stood beside a ramp at the new Lake George Skate Plaza July 23 watching skateboarders fly off ramps and careen down a stairway. Nearly a decade ago, he and his skateboarding friends, then young teenagers, had gathered in meetings at Lake George High School, strategizing how they might convince local government officials to build a skate park. Cavone and his friends had been detained by police for honing their skateboarding skills on public property, and they wanted a suitable venue to practice their sport. In the ensuing years, they held spaghetti dinners, coin drives, video game tournaments and dozens of other events to raise money to someday build a skate park. This past Saturday, however, Cavone and several of his
friends, now in their 20s, saw the realization of their dreams as they attended the Lake George Skate Plaza’s grand opening festival. The event included dozens of skateboarders, spectators, vendors, entertainment — and skateboard demonstrations and contests. As many as 200 people attended. “Seeing this is surreal to me, my mind is blown — the park is finally here,” said Cavone, now a college graduate and delving into a career of television technical production. “We worked so hard for so many years to get this built — and it’s so good to see a new generation enjoying it.” Cavone’s skateboarding friend Tim Goutos offered similar thoughts. A skateboarder since he was 10, often chased off public and private property, Goutos now runs several enterprises in Lake George. “It’s exciting to see kids skate here every day,” he said, recalling the dozens of skate park planning meetings and fundraisers he’d participated in since 8th grade. Chris Brauser, now 28, was among those teenagers told to >> See SKATE PARK | pg. 5

stay off village sidewalks during the mid-2000s, kids who met weekly to work towards establishing a skate park. He said that he had thought adults wouldn’t take their efforts and objectives seriously. “We always thought we were just skateboarders, and they not really going to build a skate park,” he said. “Now, this is definitely a dream come true.” Patricia Dow was one of the adults who took the skateboarders’ dreams seriously. Saturday, she witnessed dozens of youth and young adults skate over the ramps and rails of the new venue in the east side of Charles Wood Park. “This is very exciting,” she said. “The kids stuck with their effort, they never lost sight of their vision, and now the skate park has been in use constantly since fall. It’s wonderful they had that kind of follow-through.” In the 2000s, Bill Toscano — as an adult leader of Act for Youth — held meetings in the 2000s with the teens which resulted in preliminary skateboard park plans. Later, Patricia Dow volunteered as a leader of Lake George Community Comes Together to take over helping the youth in their campaign for a skate park. The teens lobbied village leaders and solicited contributions from individuals and businesses, and met with professional, nationally acclaimed skate park designers to draft plans for a park. By the fall 2015, they teenagers, with Dow’s help, and village

Mayor Blais’ enthusiastic support, they raised over $100,000. The village of Lake George and a state grant paid for the remaining $190,000 to cover construction costs. The local skateboarders continue to hold fundraisers — They operate a refreshment concession at the weekly Friday early-evening concerts in Shepherd Park. Since the park was opened, they’ve already raised thousands of dollars for the second phase of construction, which may include a half-pipe or other features. Blais said that the park’s development over nine years had been a campaign full of setbacks requiring determination and commitment from the teens, now young adults. “It brings me joy to see everyone enjoying this place,” he said. “At first there were naysayers, but some of us instead thought, ‘Why don’t we have a place for the skaters to recreate?’” In 2012, Cavone’s and Brausers skateboarding exploits landed them in court defending himself from accusations of vandalism from Lake George business owner Gerald Bongiorno, charges which the two teens refuted. The case was picked up by the Judge Judy show and televised nationally. Although Bongiorno originally asked for several hundred dollars in town court, his claim for damage to a picnic table was inflated to $2,795 on the Judge Judy Show — and Judge Judy awarded him the sum. The legal battle was detailed in Skateboarding Magazine. Bongiorno told Judge Judy he’d donate part of his award towards the skate plaza’s construction. The skateboarders said Saturday they haven’t yet seen a donation from him.

Cavone’s mother, Tina Cacckello, appeared alongside her son on the Judge Judy show. For years, she’s helped with the fundraising efforts. “This is just amazing, everyone’s having a great time,” she said. Cavone finished her thoughts. “It’s awesome, but now a new generation needs to take over.” LEFT: Dylan Wolfgang from Massachusetts performs a trick on a BMX bike during the Grand Opening of the new Lake George Skate Plaza, which featured contests, demonstrations of skateboarding and bike tricks, vendors and entertainment.

Who can we trust?
recall many years ago as a young boy questioning my father as he watched the political conventions on TV. He explained the importance of the conventions and the position planks drafted by the parties. I clearly recall him telling me: “Even if you are unsure of the candidate’s capabilities, you can be assured of their actions based on the party platform.” He went on to explain that the convention provided party representatives the opportunity to position the party with a balanced plan for the country that affected all levels of government. Over the years that lesson has provided a basis for trust in our government as a whole, but as time has marched on neither party seems to have a very balanced approach, instead giving way to the more extreme opinions within their respective parties. Those opinions in many ways are driven by special interests and special interest is driven by MONEY. It seems clear the most significant common denominator between the two parties is the influence of money and the special interest that money represents. So much we see unfolding with the primaries and now the conventions is driven by greed and power. Last week the Republicans put on their show in Cleveland. Thankfully it was not marred by any shootings or out of control protests. We can only hope for the same this week in Philadelphia. While it is only Sunday night we are hearing word that DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schults is due to resign her position as a result of leaked documents by Wikileaks implicating her in a scandal that tipped the primary scales in favor of Mrs. Clinton over Bernie Sanders. It remains to be seen what other fireworks will have taken place by the time you read this, but the fact that WassermanSchultz is now being named the honorary chair of the Clinton campaign’s 50-state program, likely won’t sit well with some party faithful. The bottom line remains, MONEY is the single largest and most significant factor in American politics today. Both sides cater to those who have it and with MONEY you can influence the outcome of any election and ultimately the direction of the “people’s” government. Sadly, my father’s good advice years ago about importance of the party planks we now know, no longer carries much weight. Planks are only formulated to enhance party unity since they are nonbiding on the ultimate white house survivor. Thus it seems this will be the year of two wild card candidates and Lord only knows who we can really trust or put another way, who do we trust the least. Dan Alexander is CEO of Sun Community News.

Sanders supporters are right: The system is stacked
A
n email leak has added a gigantic blast of fresh oxygen to the whole Bernie-was-shafted argument. The rumors started as a whisper shortly after Sen. Bernie Sanders mounted his resurgent bid against Hillary Clinton for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination: The system is rigged. The Democratic National Committee has their thumb on the scale for Clinton. As the primary season progressed, the claims grew to a roar. At times, it become difficult to filter out the noise. Some claims were outlandish, like attempting to portray state voter registration laws as examples of voter suppression. Others appeared probable, like accusations that the notoriously-autocratic DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz deliberately scheduled debates at weird times as a calculated measure to depress viewership — especially when compared to the freewheeling Republican primary season that began and ended as a circus sideshow. Still others could simply be written off as sour grapes, like the last-gasp complaint as the campaign ran out of gas that saw superfans engage in all sorts of mathematical contortions to argue why superdelegates should throw their lot in with Sanders despite lagging behind Clinton by about 3 million votes. But the DNC email leak, boy, this is something. WikiLeaks published a trove of nearly 20,000 emails last week. While none of the emails are very salacious — the worst reveals high-level staffers discussing how to weaken the Brooklyn-born gadfly with southern voters by questioning his religion — the leak did confirm what many supporters had believed all along, that the DNC was actively working to undermine the irascible Vermont senator. The leak splattered a massive egg at the party’s face days before the convention. The four-day event in Philly was supposed to be Hillary’s moment in the sun and an antidote to the dark brand of fatalistic nihilism spouted at the GOP’s convention in Cleveland last week. Despite Wasserman Schultz’s resignation, the leak cast a black cloud over the party’s ability to bring the disaffected left flank into the party’s embrace. This is all important because the DNC is ostensibly supposed to be neutral during the primary process. Now, a caveat — We understand political parties are essentially private organizations. And since the DNC is made up of long-term establishment types, they will natu-
rally gravitate towards Clinton, the establishment candidate, and not the rumpled socialist insurgent seeking to crash the party. That just makes sense. But it does give credence that the primary system was pre-ordained. Compare this to the Republicans. Their primary process will go down in history as being the one of the most public destructions of a political philosophy in modern-day history. The establishment watched helplessly at a dumpster fire that scorched everything in its path, leaving Trump to rebuild the party in his bronzed image. Of course, Trump gleefully seized on the leaks in an attempt to bring Sanders voters over to his camp: “Leaked e-mails of DNC show plans to destroy Bernie Sanders,” Trump tweeted on Saturday. “Mock his heritage and much more. On-line from Wikileakes [sic], really vicious. RIGGED.” And you know what? Trump is (mostly) right. While we’re not going to call it rigged, the system was heavily stacked against Sanders, and his supporters have every reason to be furious. Despite disagreeing with the senator on most of the issues, we respect him for his ethics and principles. Sanders, of course, endorsed Clinton. And the DNC gave lip service to including some of his ideas in the party platform, including breaking up Wall Street financial institutions, expanding Social Security and rebuilding crumbling infrastructure. He even put a dent in the superdelegate system. To steal another phrase from another disaffected candidate — the fact that we’re siding with Ted Cruz is a testament to how warped this election cycle has been — Sanders supporters should vote their conscience this November. We’ve said before that idealism doesn’t translate to much if it isn’t accompanied by action. Instead of whipping themselves into a virulent frenzy — including protests, which we think are meaningless — Sanders supporters should channel the outrage into a measured form of action and be the change they so long to see in the long run... even if means exploring a third route.

ThankÊ you,Ê despiteÊ SummerFestÊ hiccupsÊ To the editor: Thank you for the article about all the things that were going to happen at SummerFest on July 9 and for the photo of Daryl, the balloon man. Daryl came rain or shine and made balloon sculptures all afternoon. The fireworks were cancelled in the evening and we are planning another evening’s entrainment leading up to the fireworks. We will keep you posted when the details are finalized. The weather was threatening and it did rain on and off that day. We had a
A
very light turn out, but those who came enjoyed themselves. We had enough food vendors show up that people had a choice of foods for lunch and snacks. The stilt walker/circus arts performer/comedian was very entertaining. He put on a big show for a small crowd. The vendors we talked to said that they would be back next year because even though the crowd was light. They said, “If you can pull this many in the rain, we know it is a success if the weather cooperates.” The children’s entertainment went on without the bouncy houses. Everyone who showed up found interesting things to see, do and purchase. Joyce Houck, Chestertown
ENDORSEMENT POLICY
s we approach the upcoming election season we want to make an important distinction regarding candidate endorsements. With a free distribution in excess of 60,000 homes, our papers are inundated every election cycle with candidate endorsements. The only source of revenue our community publications receive to offset the cost of print, delivery and overhead is paid notices and advertisements. All candidate endorsements must now run either in the form of an advertisement or a paid endorsement notice and include the name of the individual making the en-
dorsement. The paid endorsement notice can be purchased in three sizes — a quick 50 words or less for $15; a 51-175 word endorsement for $50 or a 176-300 word endorsement for $75. A paid advertisement will be based on standard advertising rates taking into consideration size and frequency according to the current rate card at the open advertising rate. For rates call Ashley at 873-6368 ext 105 or email ashley@denpubs.com.

RelayÊ forÊ LifeÊ canÊ makeÊ aÊ difference To the Editor: It all started as one man walking around a track in Tacoma, Washington in 1985. Now it has transformed into the world’s largest and most impactful fundraising event to end cancer. I’m talking about the Relay for Life, which unites participants to celebrate people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and take action to finish the fight once and for all. We can make a difference right here through our local American Cancer Society Relay for Life of Crown Point, set for Aug. 20 at 12 p.m. to midnight. I would love to see people from every part of our community get involved. Dollars raised help the American Cancer Society saves lives by funding ground-breaking cancer research, providing free information and critical services to people with cancer, and helping people take steps to reduce their risk for cancer by detecting it early when it’s the easiest to treat. The Society’s efforts have contributed to a 22 percent decline in cancerrelated death rates in the U.S. since 1991. Thanks in part to our progress, 14.5 million Americans who have had cancer and countless more who have avoided it are alive today. If you have been touched by cancer, I encourage you to call the American Cancer Society at 1-800-227-2345 for services and support� Now is the time for individuals, families, clubs, faith-based organizations and businesses to make an impact in the fight to end cancer. Join me at our Relay for Life event� Visit relayforlife.org/crownpointny or call 441-1818 for more information. Joan Sterling, Latham

Police officers are people, too To the Editor: In the wake of recent shootings of police, I want say that lives do matter – color, creed, age or sex has no bearing, all lives matter, even “blue” lives. Police are taught to be leery in encounters. Now that the police have become targets for deranged individuals, we are forced to be even more cautious. If you have an encounter with a police officer, remain calm, do as asked and tell the officer what you are doing. We are people too: We have wives, husbands, children, even grandchildren who wait for our return every day. We do what we do out of a desire to make our neighborhoods better and safer. We are not infallible, even police make mistakes. Do not judge us all for the actions of a few bad officers or the bad act of a
COMMENTARY good officer who reacts too quickly or who suffers from years of accumulated stress. That officer has seen victims of abuse, rape, violence, has consoled the survivors of accidents, has watched the life drain out of victims and then puts on the uniform to do it again tomorrow. Our decisions sometimes have to be made in a fraction of a second and then are judged in hindsight for what we should have known or done. We are blessed to live in an area where most officers know the public they serve and most of the public know a lot of the officers as well. Our children go to school with yours, we shop in the same stores, eat in the same restaurants, watch the same movies and attend the same churches. Please do not take offense if we treat you differently when on duty: it is what we have to do in today’s turbulent society to see our family and friends at the end of the day. Richard Cutting, Essex County Sheriff
CarÊ safetyÊ seatÊ inspectionÊ wentÊ off Ê withoutÊ aÊ hitch To the Editor: The child safety seat event scheduled for Saturday, July 9, at the Beekmantown Volunteer Fire Department went off without a hitch in spite of the rainy weather that day. The volunteer firemen were kind enough to move their two trucks and ambulance outside so we could have the use of the bays to do our inspections undercover from the rain. The department’s Auxiliary did a great job providing us with refreshments and a tasty lunch. Much thanks to all the members of that agency. Five car seat techs, including myself, resulted in 27 seats inspected from a total of 16 cars. Only four seats correctly installed were found. The 23 seats incorrectly installed were either too loosely secured, inadequate for the child’s height and weight, or expired. Fourteen seats replaced those that were inadequate or unsafe. A big thank you goes to the techs for volunteering their time to make this a successful event. As a reminder, the next seat check event is set for Saturday, July 30, at the Plattsburgh Farmer’s Market in the City Parking Lot on Durkee Street, from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. This has in the past proved to have a good turnout from the public.

TheÊ endÊ of Ê ourÊ Republic?Ê GiveÊ meÊ aÊ break To the Editor: Our Republic has been through a number of crises over the last 240 years — including a civil war — and yet, here we are: still intact, still vibrant, and still great, notwithstanding one presidential candidate’s xenophobic rhetoric to the contrary. So, I’m confused by Ken Fenimore’s speculation on the end of our Republic (Valley News Sun, July 23). What I find most confusing about his remarks is that they cast the entire potential for the wrecking of our Republic in only one direction. Without arguing the facts about his case against President Obama and Secretary Clinton, it’s clear to me that he provides no balanced discussion on any possible adverse input from the other half of our bi-partisan Republic. To help re-balance the discussion, I point out that a former administration — from the other half, just prior to the current administration — acted recklessly on questionable evidence (one might even say lies) to rush our Republic to war at the cost of thousands of American and tens of thousands of foreign lives, billions upon billions of dollars, the destabilization of the entire Middle East and a stain on our proud standing in world opinion, all of which we are still paying for. This when Barack Obama was a largely unrecognized junior senator from Illinois (who, by the way, voted against going into Iraq), and Hillary Clinton was merely an ex-First Lady and junior senator from New York (who, by the way, voted to invade Iraq). No, if anything, if our Republic is experiencing any crisis there’s plenty of blame to go around. I want to assure you, Mr. Fenimore, you can sleep at night because, despite the occasional mistakes and ineffectiveness of our leaders, after all, they are only human, and in the end, the Republic is resilient, strong and is built on a foundation of strong and resilient principles and ideals. However, what it will take for our Republic to continue on this successful journey is not the spewing of thinly veiled bigoted screeds (and not so thinly veiled bigoted screeds: think Sen. Joseph McCarthy, think Berlin 1933) but a thoughtful, balanced, fair-minded, rational discussion of what is hurting and what is helping our Republic. Borrowing from some of Mr. Fenimore’s own thinking, given the nature of human beings this will be difficult. However, difficult as it may be, it is the responsible thing to do, the only thing to do. We should expect such thoughtful, rational discussion from each other, and we most certainly require it of those who find themselves in positions of leadership, be they in Washington, D.C, or Elizabethtown, NY. Then things just may begin to happen that will “lead to peace and love.” Bob Segall, Upper Jay

Surging Health costs New York’s health insurance costs skyrocket Bill Hammond Columnist
N
ew York emerged as the second-costliest state for employersponsored health insurance after its premiums rose at more than three times the national rate in 2015, according to just-released federal data. The average single-coverage premium in New York last year was $6,801, second only to Alaska, with its small, thinly spread population, at $7,807, according to survey figures from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. The U.S. average was $5,963. While nationwide single premiums grew by a modest 2.2 percent for the year, New York’s jumped by 7.8 percent. The average family premium in New York was $19,630, compared to a national average of $17,322, the data show. Premiums have long been high in New York, but the problem shows signs of getting worse. The affordability gap between New York’s single coverage prices and the national norm surged to 14 percent in 2015, the highest in at least two decades. The Empire State’s No. 2 ranking is up from 10th in 2010 and 18th in 2003. The trend comes in spite of aggressive price regulation by the state Department of Financial Services, under a so-called prior approval law that was reinstated in 2010. In each year since, regulators have cut nearly every rate increase requested by health plans, sometimes by more than half. Among the companies affected was Health Republic Insurance of New York, a startup that was sustaining heavy losses. Its rate request for 2016 was trimmed just weeks before it was declared insolvent and shut down by the state. Industry officials charge that the department’s decisions have been driven more by a political desire to suppress consumer costs than good actuarial practice. Politico reported this week that most New York health plans, like many nationwide, are losing money on the individual and small group policies sold through Obamacare exchanges, a trend that the news site called a “structural threat” to the national health reform law. State regulators face a dilemma: If they approve steep rate hikes requested by insurers, coverage will become even less affordable for small businesses and individuals shopping on the ACA exchanges (especially for those whose incomes are too high to qualify for ACA tax credits). But if regulators continue suppressing premiums, plans could choose to walk away from New York’s small business and individual markets, reducing choice for consumers and potentially pushing more people back into the ranks of the uninsured.

From page 1 Sun Community News Managing Editor John Gereau said he is excited to welcome the new additions to his editorial team. “I’m ecstatic to bring this kind of talent and experience to Sun Community News,” Gereau said, noting that McKinstry and Dedam are well-known and respected journalists in the region. “Never before have we been better positioned to offer our readers all the news of importance they need in their daily region. “Never before have we been better positioned to offer our readers all the news of importance they need in their daily lives,” Gereau said. Dan Alexander, publisher of Sun Community News, said he is committed to investing in quality staff at a time when corporately-owned daily newspapers are slashing staff, providing less content and forcing unpaid furloughs on employees. Alexander referred to these big corporations as “carpetbaggers” who shuttle money out of the region to line the pockets of investors. “These people are not committed to serve the community only to pad their own bottom line,” Alexander said. “As these organizations cut staff and reduce services they also send the message that newspapers no longer have a place in the community. “Companies like ours continue to disprove that belief,” Alexander said. “Newspapers that do not shrink when the going gets tough will stand the test of time, provided the community continues to support our efforts.” Hired or promoted at Sun Community News were:

tion’s capital. “I really liked seeing the architecture. Everything was so beautiful,” she said. For Mowery, the connections she made with other students who, like her, were selected for the program for their stellar performances in and outside the classroom, are continuing. “I met kids from all over. California, Ohio, Massachusetts, Texas, Tennessee…,” she said, adding she’s been keeping in contact with them since returning home. While there, outside of the leadership training activities and field trips, Mowery benefitted from the social interactions that stemmed from rooming with like-minded girls. “Every night, we had a dance party. It was lights out, we had to stay in our rooms, bit we had mini-parties,” she said. Mowery’s mother, Kerry Kane, said a spark in her daughter’s self confidence was almost immediately apparent. “She would text and call home,” she said. It was during one of those calls that Kane got surprise, herself. Mowery was chosen to deliver a commencement speech at the end of the program, just one of seven of the 309 in attendance to receive the honor. Not only would she be speaking, she’d be writing the speech herself. “I can’t even imagine,” said Kane, of the task of crafting the address and delivering to such a large group of strangers. Mowery took it in stride and came home with knowledge and tales of her trip she looks forward to sharing with her classmates. “I learned a lot about staying confident in yourself.” Kane also reported seeing results of the week in Mowery, with her new found confidence spilling over into her math work. “The program itself is very expensive,” said Kane, who said they did some fundraising and got some financial help from Mowery’s grandparents. “We did wonder at first if we should do it, but I really encourage other parents to find a way. Despite the cost, it was definitely worth it.” ON THE COVER: Gabrielle Mowery was able to visit the Lincoln Memorial as part of the 2016 Junior National Young Leaders conference in Washington, D.C.

Area ski pioneers honored at Gore By Thom Randall

attendant and as a conductor on the local trains. He and his wife Carol are responsible for the development of the Carol A. Thomas Walking Trail, a flower-bedecked path which links downtown North Creek to the Ski Bowl. Dr. Dan O’Keeffe Dan O’Keeffe, a renowned obstetrician in the region, was not only an avid skier, but he was a member of Gore’s first ski patrol — believed to also be the nation’s first — beginning in 1934. Through high school, O’Keefe was a member of this ski patrol, which prompted the development of similar patrols tall over the world. In his youth, O’Keefe was winner of the famous Saks Fifth Avenue Slalom Race on Gore Mountain, and for many years the race trophy was displayed in the window of his father’s drug store in North Creek. A lifelong skiing enthusiast, O’Keefe is also an author. He wrote “Halfway to Heaven - Living in the ‘Crick’” and co-wrote “Ride Up, Slide Down - a History of Skiing at Gore Mountain.” O’Keefe has a close relationship to thousands of families in the southern Adirondacks, having delivered more than 10,000 babies in his 50-year medical career. Also present for the ceremony was Pat Cunningham, whose family was likewise honored in a ceremony years ago. Pat is a member of the Cunningham family, which has for three generations been prominent in skiing and ski outfitting in Johnsburg. His Father Butler was founder of the Gore Mountain Lift Co., and he and Pat have operated Cunningham’s Ski Barn for many decades. Pat was an accomplished professional ski racer in Europe, and he was a finalist for the U.S. Ski Team. W. Averell Harriman One of the earliest skiers at Gore Mountain, Averell Harriman served as New York State Governor from 1955 to 1958. During his tenure, he was influential in developing not only ski areas but other recreational venues around the state. He is credited with being a prime advocate for a $3 million grant that funded the development of Gore Mountain.

NORTH CREEK — Five people influential in the development of the ski industry in Johnsburg — and several of them nationally — were honored recently by representatives of Gore Mountain ski center. A ceremony paying tribute to Dr. Dan O’Keefe, Sterling J. Goodspeed, William H. “Bill” Thomas, Otto Schniebs and W. Averell Harriman was held July 15 in the Joe Minder Lodge at the North Creek Ski Bowl. The contributions of these five citizens to the advancement of skiing in the region and nationally was hailed as Gore Mountain officials hung plaques on the lodge’s wall in their honor. Dr. Dan O’Keefe and Bill Thomas were on hand for the ceremony, as were the children, relatives and friends of several of the honorees. Sterling J. Goodspeed Goodspeed was served as town of Johnsburg Supervisor from 1962 to 1985, and as Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors from 1978 to 1985. In these roles, Goodspeed was influential in advocating for vital improvements Gore Mountain ski center, as well as working to boost the economy of northern Warren County. As the county’s CEO, he secured substantial funding for Gore improvements and expansion, while convincing state officials to invest in the ski center. He was key in retaining and renewing the Ski Bowl, keeping it open for free skiing when private operators stopped running it. Both Sterling J. Goodspeed and his wife Jane — a former ski patrol nurse — were avid skiers, as their children are now. William H. Thomas Also influential politically in advocating for Gore was Bill Thomas, Johnsburg Supervisor from 1990 to 2007. Thomas was a key leader in the revitalization of the Ski Bowl, and he worked hard for the development of the Gore “Interconnect” which now provides Gore Mountain skiers easy passage to the Ski Bowl as well as downtown North Creek. Thomas also has been a staunch advocate for the Saratoga-North Creek Railway, which now brings thousands of passengers and skiers to North Creek, and is envisioned to someday extend “ski train” service to New York City like in bygone years. In addition, Thomas has been a commissioner of the Adirondack Park Agency, as well as Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors. Committed to his hometown, Thomas has served for 25 years on the Johnsburg Emergency Squad, and 45 years on the North Creek Fire Department. In addition, he has worked as a Gore Mountain lift

In 1936 during Harriman’s lengthy tenure as Chairman of Union Pacific Railroad, he founded Idaho’s Sun Valley Ski Resort, the first destination winter resort in the U.S.. Otto Schniebs Otto Schniebs was one of the earliest advocates of downhill skiing in the U.S.. He founded one of the first ski schools in America, and co-wrote “Modern Ski Techniques,” believed to be the first book on skiing instruction. He also authored “American Skiing” and “Skiing for All.” Schniebs served as a ski coach at Dartmouth College from 1930 to 1936 and at St. Lawrence University from 1941 to 1956. During his legendary career, he also coached skiing for the North Creek high school. Schniebs was the first director of the ski school for instructors organized by the U.S. Eastern Amateur Ski Association. Sixteen of his skiing students ended up competing on U.S. Olympic ski teams. Schniebs designed Whiteface Mountain ski resort and helped to introduce skiing in the Berkshire Mountains. He was inducted into the National Ski Hall of Fame in 1967. Announcing the awards, Gore Mountain General Manager Mike Pratt said that the Gore Pioneers awards program was a way to raise awareness about Gore’s role in the history of skiing. “The skiing heritage of this area is so powerful,” he said. Accepting one of the Pioneer awards with his brother Jim on behalf of their late father, former county District Attorney Sterling I. Goodspeed talked about his extended family’s deep involvement with Gore. “My father worked hard over his lifetime to enhance the mountain,” he said. “My dad fully understood how important it was to the upstate economy, and it’s great to see his efforts recognized — and witness the mountain moving forward.” Now 95 years old, O’Keefe recalled memories of his early days of skiing including the women who came to Gore from downstate on ski trains, and how he and the other ski patrol members enjoyed socializing with them at round and square dancing events. “Most all of the ladies from New York City couldn’t ski, but we didn’t care if they knew how or not,” he said. Bill Thomas deferred credit to others for the development of the $18 million Gore-Ski Bowl Interconnect improvements, a landmark project in the ski resort’s history. “It took many people to make it a reality,” he said.

“Elise Stefanik has never supported TPP, and the news citations used to support Mike Derrick’s blatantly false claim are about TPA, not TPP,” said campaign spokesman Lenny Alcivar in an email. “Either Mike Derrick doesn’t know the difference between TPP and TPA, or he knowingly misrepresented her position because he has no new ideas of his own.” The Derrick camp shot back: “Why would she vote to fast track its approval if she doesn’t support it?” In a third news release, Derrick suggested Stefanik was beholden to her campaign donors. The lawmaker, he claimed, received $50,000 from “pro-TPP special interests that spent over $168 million on total lobbying in 2014 alone.” Derrick also touted an endorsement from the United Steelworkers, who said the candidate reached out when Alcoa threatened to cut 600 jobs in Massena last year. “Mike called and asked what he could do to help,” said Region 4 Representative Rick Sauer. “We did not hear from our Congressperson.”

DEFINITIONS TPA is short for “trade promotion authority,” commonly referred to as “fast track.” That legislation gives the administration the authority to negotiate trade deals based on a predetermined set of objectives and priorities. Once negotiated, Congress must vote up or down on whether to ratify it, without amendments — nor can the deals be filibustered. Without the TPA, the U.S. would not be able to negotiate any trade deals at all — it is not TPP specific — since no trading partner would ever agree to a deal that is subject to change. In a vote cleaved largely along partisan lines, Stefanik voted for the TPA last June. The lawmaker has stopped short of saying she supports the TPP, which remains subject to congressional approval. “Last month, I had the opportunity to sit down with our trade ambassador who is negotiating these trade agreements on behalf of the U.S., and I raised concerns from our dairy farmers, from our manufacturers in this district,” Stefanik told the Glens Falls Post-Star last week.
Published by Denton Publications, Inc.
Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello also jumped into the debate, calling the TPP an “evil bill” that would “plunge the world deeper into economic slavery.” “I’m against any trade deal that is global in nature that was negotiated in secret, which the TPP was,” Funiciello said. The TPA, he added, is “totally unconstitutional.” Funiciello also said the agreement would threaten American sovereignty, citing Monsanto Canada Inc v. Schmeiser, the Canadian Supreme Court case that saw the agriculture giant successfully sue a Canadian canola farmer for patent violations. The candidate, who owns a bakery in Glens Falls, said free trade agreements have led to human rights violations in developing countries, including allegations of abuses at Nike’s factories in Malaysia. “If that’s free trade, I don’t want any of it at all,” Funiciello said.
