After intermittent closures, Million Dollar Beach reopens Local officials hope beach remains open following touch-and-go status

LAKE GEORGE — Unlike the movie, it’s not a giant shark threatening the Labor Day weekend for tourists at Million Dollar Beach here.

But it could be microscopic bacteria.

The state Department of Environmental Conservation reopened Million Dollar Beach mid-afternoon Monday, Aug. 29 after water-quality tests indicated that bacteria levels, elevated in various tests this past week, had decreased to within

safety limits set by the agency.

Now, Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson said he predicted Million Dollar Beach and Dog Beach would remain open through Labor Day, as little or no rainfall is forecast.

“I hope Million Dollar Beach remains open,” he said. “It’s a big weekend for us.”

This iconic swimming venue, as well as adjacent “Dog Beach,” had been closed most of last week due to bacteria concentrations that prompted concerns. Monday’s reopening of the beaches capped off intermittent closures occurring over the past nine days.

These two beaches had initially been closed Friday Aug. 19 because of high fecal coliform bacteria counts, but were re-

opened the following day when a subsequent test showed the bacteria levels had subsided.

The beaches were again closed to the public Tuesday Aug. 23 when water quality tests taken the prior day detected coliform bacteria levels of 4,180 colonies per 100 milliliters — nearly four times the limit that DEC has established for safe swimming.

The beaches remained closed for the next six days while DEC continued taking a series of routine tests — which indicated fecal coliform bacteria had decreased substantially, but by Friday E. coli levels had increased to well above the state Health Department threshold of 235 colonies per 100 milliliter. >> See BEACH | pg. 12

BRANT LAKE — A loon has established residence this summer on Brant Lake’s small Mill Pond, and while it has achieved celebrity status with both local residents and visitors, it has also prompted concerns over its well-being, Horicon Town Supervisor Matt Simpson said Aug. 29.

Considering the reclusive species’ preference for backcountry waterways, the mill pond is a novel place for a loon to reside, as the pond hosts a popular town beach and is adjacent to busy state Rte. 8 with several storefronts nearby.

Simpson said wildlife enthusiasts believe the bird is stranded on the pond because there isn’t a stretch of water surface long enough for the bird to take off.

Loons run over the surface of a waterway, flapping their wings for a considerable distance to become airborne — a >> See LOON | pg. 12

Marriott Courtyard hotel opens, revealing millennial style $26 million hotel now open

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — The Marriott Courtyard hotel — envisioned to transform Lake George Village into a premier yearround destination — opened Aug. 29 with considerable fanfare, accompanied by joyous cheers and tears.

A ribbon-cutting was held mid-afternoon Monday at the Canada Street entrance of the new 119-room Courtyard Lake George by Marriott that cost $26 million to develop — as the first guests arrived to check in.

The event, which included speeches, congratulations, and tours of the new sixstory hotel, was attended by about 100 people.

Developers Dave Kenny and Frank Dittrich were praised for their dedication to pursuing the project that is predicted to transform the face of Lake George — and for securing both a premier hotel brand and a top-tier management company to steer the enterprise.

The hotel is aimed to accommodate both business and leisure travelers, as well as corporate meetings and conventions.

Two expansive meeting rooms occupying the southern end of the first two floors of the building are expected to be completed by next March. Each of these 5,000-square-feet “ballrooms” is designed to host 400 people. Also slated for open-

ing next year is a rooftop terrace and an upscale full-service restaurant. The hotel’s indoor pool is to be in service within two weeks.

Open now is a full-service bistro that offers light fare and Starbucks coffee. The hotel’s lobby winds through intimate spaces on the first floor, around a copper-clad double-sided fireplace and a lobby bar. Furniture with a nouveau-European look is scattered throughout.

Of the 119 rooms, 60 are suites, and 43 of them have balconies overlooking Lake George and the historic former county courthouse. All rooms feature a view of either Prospect Mountain or the lake. Dittrich said the rooms are larger than those that Marriott requires.

Otis Mountain headliners Lewis Del Mar make it big Musicians behind Lewis Del Mar talk humble beginnings, festival goofs Elizabeth Izzo

Elizabeth@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — It all started with a pair of two nine-year-old kids.

Two students, Danny Miller and Max Harwood, transferred to an unfamiliar elementary school in Washington, DC the same year.

Though the school they attended was fairly large, and there were innumerable scenarios in which the two students could have found themselves never meeting, the pair somehow found one another — and discovered they had a mutual desire, according to the duo, “to cause s**t and get in trouble.”

“I felt I had a friend to do bad s**t with,” said Danny Miller, guitarist and singer of Lewis Del Mar, of his bandmate Max. “Someone to push the boundaries with.”

Miller and Harwood started making music in the sixth grade.

They haven’t quite stopped since.

After years of touring, sweating it out in small clubs under various band names, the duo finally found their sound under the moniker Lewis Del Mar. “[Our sound] is really a culmination of a lifetime of touring,” said the group.

Their music is a conglomeration of experiences; a blues-rock influence left over from projects past; a Latin American element from the duo’s Panamanian and Nicaraguan fathers, a sprinkling of their shared love of mixed media; and a balance between natural acoustics and industrial production, indicative of the group’s home in Rockaway Beach.

It’s unique in part because it’s born from experiences all their own.

What sounds at first like simple pop-rock blossoms into something entirely new with each listen. Miller and Harwood worked to-

gether to push the boundaries in school, and seem to bring some of that same sentiment to their music today.

“It’s 2016 and a lot of music has been done already,” said DJ Miles on Go 96.3. “To come across a band who are doing something different and unique and innovative, it’s refreshing.”

WORKING CLASS HEROES In an era of nationally televised singing competitions and instant internet phenomenons, Lewis Del Mar followed a somewhat traditional path to fame.

They spent years sleeping on floors and self-booking tours, Miller told Billboard earlier this year. All the while they experimented with their sound before releasing anything substantial.

“You get to know yourself artistically,” said Max Harwood, drummer and producer.

“Some happen to write a big hit and it propels them. They don’t have to take a step back and look at themselves.”

“When you don’t have instant success, you’re forced to evaluate and reevaluate.

You’ve already got yourself in place.”

“We weren’t ready for this moment before,” said Miller. “By the time we got the opportunities [we have], we were at the apex. All the hours we spent make it easier now.”

“We understand what we’re trying to do.

We’re grateful to be able to stand on the shoulders of the experience we have.”

Now those two transfer students — who grew up in basements, playing with friends — are topping music charts together, playing on the same bill as Radiohead and Macklemore, and making music on Startime, a subsidiary of Columbia Records.

OTIS MOUNTAIN GET DOWN Miller and Harwood left Washington for New York City a few years ago. New York is now part of the fabric of what they do, the band said.

Lewis Del Mar will travel upstate in less than a week for Elizabethtown’s Otis Mountain Get Down.

This is not the first time they will be performing at the festival, however.

Otis Mountain was the group’s second gig as Lewis Del Mar last year.

“We had a crazy time last year,” said Miller.

“We were staying in a camp, ended up having too much fun, and Max lost his car keys.”

“We were stuck for two entire days. It torrentially downpoured the entire time. We had to call AAA, and they ended up setting off the car alarm.”

And yet, despite the band’s delayed departure last year, they were still excited to return.

“We love the environment… the beautiful, mountainous forest,” said Harwood.

The duo will perform in Elizabethtown with a full band; bringing along keyboardist Nick Chatham, guitarist Theon Gomez and bassist Drew Hart to supplement their live act.

“We have fairly produced music,” Harwood told Billboard earlier this year. “We didn’t want backing tracks and loops … we were really inspired by James Blake … when he’s live, he does it with a three piece, and they’re all actively playing all of those parts, it’s such a produced sound, but feels so real live.”

Lewis Del Mar will perform at the Otis Mountain Get Down on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 10:30 p.m. Tickets are still available for the festival, and can be found at otismountain. com.

The duo’s new album, as of yet untitled, will be released sometime this fall.

When asked if the duo’s homemade, DIY sound would be effected by the resources afforded to them by their new record label, the band had a simple answer.

“We made this album completely on our own,” said Miller. “Only one other person was involved. There’s no reason to change [our sound]. We’re comfortable with it. In the future we want to evolve, but in terms of recording, there has been no real pressure to change.”

Next week: The Sun will speak to local business owners and community members about the Otis Mountain Get Down’s impact on Elizabethtown.

The Otis Mountain Get Down will begin Friday, Sept. 9 and run until Sunday, Sept. 11.

The festival will feature three stages and over 30 artists. For more information, visit otismountain.com.

‘Star Trek’ con ‘Trekonderoga’ deemed success The recent Trekonderoga event attracted 600 fans of the show

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA – To the exhilaration of its organizers, attendance at Ticonderoga’s recent Trekonderoga “Star Trek” convention doubled over last year.

The event brought in several guest stars from the original 1960s show for panel discussions and autograph sessions, and offered tours of the detailed USS Enterprise sets convention host James Cawley has built in a converted supermarket building in downtown Ticonderoga.

“We had 600 here for Trekonderoga,” Cawley said. “We doubled the attendance from last year. The convention was a great success.”

Cawley and the Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance sponsor the event, which was held Aug. 12 through 14 at Cawley’s Retro Studios and the Ticonderoga Campus of North Country Community College.

Cawley, who also appears as an Elvis Presley tribute-artist, put on a show Aug. 13 at Ticonderoga High School that sold 322 tickets.

“A lot of people said it was a great night,” he said. “Some people are fans of both ‘Star Trek’ and Elvis. It’s all pop culture.”

They’re already planning next year’s Trekonderoga, he said.

“The chances of it being bigger and better next year are good,” Cawley said.

Cawley also offers “Star Trek – Original Set Tours” daily at the studios, and it’s become very popular, he said.

“It’s worked out great,” he said. “We’ve got people coming from all over. They’re coming to Ticonderoga to see this. It’s a different direction for Ticonderoga.”

Cawley has recreated the full range of Starship Enterprise sets from the show in accurate detail, using the original blue-

prints. He recently received licensing from CBS, which owns the rights to “Star Trek,” to offer the tours.

The sets were originally created to shoot the “Star Trek” webisodes that Cawley and his team produce, but have now become an attraction in their own right.

The Original Set Tours gift shop isn’t open yet, he said, but will be soon with Trekonderoga-branded merchandise.

They’ve had fans from not just the US, but all over Europe,

including Ireland and Venice, come for the tours, he said.

“We just started three weeks ago,” Cawley said. “It’s been crazy steady for the tours. People are waiting for the doors to open.”

P

ublishing a free community paper like The Sun, requires us to come in contact with many business sources each and every week as we work to secure income to offset the cost of our overhead.

Two common themes we regularly hear when speaking with local business owners and managers are a lack of available workers and the ever rising costs of operating a business today.

Local businesses are not alone in this environment.

Service companies, government agencies, non-profits and even the big box stores and national restaurant chains have had to adjust to new trends forcing a more watchful eye on every expense.

So many things have changed in the past few years that affect business overhead and sadly most of them have not been good. Payroll costs, health insurance, cost of goods, and choosing the right vendors to assist businesses in reaching their goals have all undergone a major revamping to adjust to the new norm.

Most business owners today work far harder than in the past and do so with far less left in the cookie jar when all the bills are satisfied. Many would also think twice about starting or owning a business in today’s climate.

While it’s never been easy getting started in business, hard work and regular investment early on were generally rewarded with customer loyalty and smooth sailing once the business was established.

Supporting local businesses that employ our neighbors and family members is what helps create a strong local economy. And a strong local economy ensures us all a more vibrant community capable of dealing with changing times and bumps in the road that will arise over time.

It is easy to be seduced by low cost online deals from mega suppliers like Amazon, Alibaba, Overstock and dozens more who do nothing to help build strong communities with good schools systems, strong health care agencies and vibrant main streets.

Strong local commerce requires funds moving throughout the entire community just like blood flowing through a healthy human body. It must be steady to sustain the health of the body or in this case the community economic health.

As we celebrate labor day this weekend let’s remember our local labor force and not forget the many business employers who call our community home. They invest a lot to be here and our combined success in all areas of the community will be based on the ability to support each other.

State should consider hiking permits

W

e’re ordinarily not in favor of hiking taxes but we’re calling for a hiking tax.

It’s indisputable that hiking continually rates among the top draws to the Adirondack Park.

Unlike other outdoor activities that require expensive gear, participation costs are minimal, with only a pair of quality footwear separating participants from a rigorous stroll through the wilderness.

Another reason for the accessibility is the lack of registration fees.

Hiking is free, making it unique in the realm of outdoor activities.

Snowmobiling requires a license. Boating requires a license. So does fishing and hunting. Campgrounds charge fees.

Come to think of it, it seems like every user group pays to play in the Adirondack Park except those that hike.

So why not level the playing field and require a token fee for hikers?

Say, a $10 annual fee similar to a hunting or fishing license.

Enforcement would be identical.

Just think of the revenue that could be generated for these local communities.

The estimated number of leisure visitors to the Adirondack region in 2014 was 460,000, according to the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism.

Nearly 86 percent of those visitors counted hiking as their top draw.

If all of them purchased a $10 permit, that’s nearly $4 million in possible revenue — just for the Adirondack Park alone. Imagine the numbers for the entire state, including the Catskills.

Most of us spend more than that on coffee each week.

Use some of the proceeds to aid the cash-strapped local governments who provide services and infrastructure for these visitors.

The rest can be used to boost funding for forest rangers, whose numbers have been kept stagnant for years despite increased state land holdings and increasing tourism to the region.

Take a look at the state Department of Conservation’s weekly search and rescue highlights to see what these guys are dealing with: From broken legs to lost and confused hikers, reports list incident after incident of helpless weekend warriors requiring rescue.

These specialized operations often require significant manpower, including air support. They tax our underfunded local volunteers.

You seldom see hunters or anglers in distress… and they’re bushwacking it through the backcountry on unmarked trails.

Quite simply, forest rangers are being asked to do more with less and the hiking faction by far demands the most resources.

It seems unsustainable.

A

And despite ongoing educational efforts, the influx of hikers is also leading to a degradation of these trail networks, with popular trailheads and summits reportedly seeing more wear and tear — including a loss of vegetation.

Taxing hikers isn’t a new concept, and we’ve written about it before. But the policy is one that should be seriously considered, particularly as the state continues to promote the North Country as a premier tourism destination, and as hiking culture continues to expand beyond the High Peaks region.

At the same time, business owners inside the Blue Line could use the system as an incentive to draw these visitors to their establishments. Offer 10 percent off a meal or hotel room for those who display their hiking license.

That’s a win-win for all — giving the hiking family a kick-back for purchasing the permit while enticing these folks to spend their money here, which often simply does not happen.

Some may argue that an additional licensing fee may be duplicative considering state taxpayers have already footed the bill for the purchase of these public lands.

But the National Parks Service also charges a fee to access taxpayer-funded lands. You see it all over the country.

Others say such a policy would be unenforceable and would lead to a slippery slope as to what, exactly, constitutes hiking.

Obviously some thorny issues would need be hammered out, and doing so should be relatively breezy with a bit of common sense. But the alternative of doing nothing, much like the fragile ground being eroded by legions of visitors, is equally unsustainable.

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.

The members of the Westport Heritage House and Festival Committees would like to express our thanks to the many volunteers who helped to make the 2016 Westport Festival a success. This event would not happen without the volunteers, both behind the scenes and in front, for the day’s activities.

TrumpÕ sÊ lies To the Editor: Mr. Windle’s letter (Aug. 20 edition) said that Trump’s lies do not compare with Hitler’s lies.

I disagree. Trump’s lies do compare with Goebbels. (Politico found that Trump lies every five minutes.)

What about George Bush and his administration’s lies? Following 9/11, Bush and his top officials waged a carefully orchestrated campaign of misinformation about Saddam Hussein’s WMDs. Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz made 935 false statements.

In the two years following 9/11 that led our nation to war under decidedly false pretenses, on at least 532 separate occasions — speeches, briefings, interviews and testimony — Bush and three key officials (Secretary of State Colin Powell, Dep. Secretary of State Paul Wolfowitz, Press Secretary Ari Fleischer) stated unequivocally that Iraq had WMDs. This concentrated effort was the underpinning of the Bush administration’s case for war.

Dick Cheney: “There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has WMDs.” A CIA Agent was quoted as saying, “Where is he getting this stuff from?”

One truth that Trump has said is this: “They [Bush] lied, they said that there were WMDs, there were none, and they knew there were none.”

Judicial Watch, a multi-million dollar right wing organization, has been attacking the Clintons since the 1990s. It is the only thing they do.

As for the Affordable Care Act, 20 million Americans are now getting health coverage that they did not have before President Obama and the Democrats passed this into law.

You probably don’t know that we are paying for every Iraqi citizen’s health insurance.

Article 31 of the Iraqi Constitution, drafted by the Bush administration in 2005, includes state guaranteed single payer health care for life for every Iraqi citizen. So according to the political right wing, government-guaranteed health insurance is good for the Iraqis but not for the American citizens.

Social Security, sponsored by Robert Wagner (D-NY), Robert Doughton (D-NC), David Lewis (D-MD), proposed and passed by President Franklin Roosevelt (D-NY). Medicare sponsored by Harry Truman (D-Mis), proposed and passed by Lyndon Johnson (D-Tx). These programs benefit all Americans, all proposed and passed by Democrats.

Mr. Windle, what has your Republican party done for the American people apart from objecting to programs for the American people and lying us into a war? Switch sides? Help Donald Trump? Really? Mr. Windle, you need help!

Only one tiny South Pacific island country sent us a check for $1,700, which was 10 percent of their gross national product, to help with the hurricane in Louisiana.

Where is the aid from all the countries we help?

WWII Lend-Lease! Why hasn’t this been paid back? Notice it says lendlease, not give. Time to say ‘no more foreign aid.’

Take care of your own problems. Let’s use the money to rebuild the U.S.A. and become “great again.”

Vote for The Donald!

TrumpÊ carryingÊ bannerÊ forÊ truth To the Editor: In response to Mr. G.P. Guido: I, for one, am offended when you suggest I am un-American when it comes to keeping jobs in America.

In fact, I wrote against NAFTA and GATT back in the late 1980s and did what I could to stop the implementation of this new policy.

Almost immediately, I started to notice a loss of small manufacturing plants close, as they were my customers, just as I had openly predicted! So don’t tell me I am un-American. My livelihood was threatened and I had to make dramatic changes in my business to survive.

As for the hat, “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN,” let me tell you I have one and wear it proudly! For your information, it’s made by CALIFRAME located in Carson, California. So much for your claim they are made in China!

As for Clinton, good god, what more will you crazy liberals need before you replace her on the Democratic ticket. Don’t tell me she is not a thief at every level, don’t tell me she is not a liar, don’t tell me she is not mentally challenged, don’t tell me she has not sold out America for personnel gain, don’t tell me her daughter was properly compensated at her first job with $635,000 starting salary plus perks so don’t tell me!

Trump, damage America. BS. His work ethic has created tens of thousands of jobs for all Americans; Latinos, blacks, women, yes, each and every one of us!

You suggest there is no defense for the truth, wrong: the truth is the defense, and Trump is carrying that banner.

I join with you in GOD BLESS AMERICA, but as for Hillary, sick or not, she should go to jail for the rest of her life.

T

he health insurance exchanges that are the beating heart of Obamacare are on the edge of collapse, with premiums rising sharply for ever narrower provider networks, nonprofit health co-ops shuttering their doors, and even the biggest insurance companies heading for the exits amid mounting losses.

Three states - Alaska, Alabama, and Wyoming - are already down to just a single insurance company, as are large parts of several other states, totaling at least 664 counties.

UnitedHealth is pulling out completely, Humana is pulling out of 88 percent of counties it was in, and last weak Aetna strongly suggested it will be exiting, too, unless it gets bribed to stay with a huge, annual infusion of direct corporate bailout payments from taxpayers.

Dealing with the wreckage will be at the top of the agenda for the new president and Congress next year, and their options will be limited especially if, as appears likely, we will continue to have divided government.

The most likely outcome, then, is the muddled middle, keeping gravely ill Obamacare on life support, with the major policy fight being over the extent to which taxpayers should be forced to provide billions in corporate bailout cash infusions.

Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini was pretty blatant in a recent interview with Zachary Tracer of Bloomberg.

Here’s the key part: “Rather than transferring money among insurers, the law should be changed to subsidize insurers with government funds,” Bertolini said.

“It needs to be a non-zero sum pool in order to fix it,’ Bertolini said.”

In other words: everybody is losing money, so taxpayers need to pick up the tab.

The Obama administration is already playing fast and loose with the law to shovel as many bailout bucks to insurers as they can - on top of Obamacare’s huge subsidies to lower income consumers and a penalty tax on people who don’t buy in. They shortchanged taxpayers by $3.5 billion that, contrary to law, they sent to insurance companies instead.

Democrats will support legalizing these payments and authorizing even larger direct corporate bailouts on an ongoing basis as a way to keep insurance companies in the Obamacare exchanges.

Republicans will be attacked as saboteurs for resisting bailout payments, but that misses the point.

Direct corporate welfare to bribe companies to participate in a poorly designed program is throwing good money after bad.

We won’t be able to get to a real solution until we acknowledge that Obamacare is too rigidly structured and regulated to offer products people actually want, and needs to be reformed or replaced with genuine, functioning markets that give us a much wider variety of plans.

Before that can happen, Obamacare supporters need to be held accountable for the law’s manifest failures - not permitted to paper them over with billions more of our tax dollars.

EYE ON THE ARTS

Remembering the history of American workers

I

n this ever-globalizing economy, the spotlight is often on labor. Where will the future of jobs lie? What is a livable wage, and how do we get there? It’s easy to get caught up in this line of thinking and forget where we started, and why we are largely able to focus on the future of jobs and wages rather than the deplorability of working conditions.

Luckily, we have Labor Day to remind us.

Beyond the barbecues and that residual Independence Day vibe, Labor Day is about honoring the American labor movement. There are Americans who fought for decades for our labor rights; hundreds who died while protesting and striking.

In the Battle of Blair Mountain in 1921, hundreds of coal miners were arrested without habeas corpus and other basic legal rights following one of the largest labor uprisings in history, according to Wikipedia. There was somewhere between 50-100 deaths.

The coal minor union involved, UMWA, was undermined by management and union membership fell from 50,000 to 10,000. That is, until the New Deal was signed by FDR in 1933.

The struggle of the American worker is imbedded in our history as a nation. This weekend, we remember that struggle, and those that fought and lost their lives to get us to where we are today.

Sept. 11 hike up hill named after founder of Thurman

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — The public is invited to join several dozen local hikers take a climb up Jimmy’s Peak, a mountain with rich history.

The hill is named after James Cameron, a settler of the town of Thurman. Cameron’s historic homestead is located in Thurman, across the Hudson river from the mountain.

People are gathering for this annual trek at 9 a.m. Sunday Sept. 11 in the parking lot of Hickory Ski Center in Warrensburg.

Rex Reynolds is leading the hike, suitable for families, which takes about two hours round trip. Following the hike is a barbecue picnic at the home of Lillie Cameron — and all are invited. Those attending the meal are urged to bring a dish to share — dropping it off beforehand at Lillie Cameron’s house at 43 Cameron Road in Thurman.

Jimmy’s Peak received international attention in 2013 when Wall Street Journal reporter Barry Newman focused on the mountain as he examined the issue of the US. Board on Geographic Names following its long-standing policy of deleting apostrophes when officially naming mountains.

James Cameron was a pioneer, woodsman, farmer and justice of the peace who settled in the valley in 1773, and is one of the founders of Thurman.

Reynolds noted that during the Sept. 11 excursion up Jimmy’s Peak, he will be showing hikers the eye bolts that once held down Cameron’s observation tower, used to observe the movements of American troops up the Hudson River Valley during the Revolutionary War. Known as “Tory Jim,” Cameron was loyal to the British Monarchy.

In the early 1800s, guests at the Cameron boarding House & Lodge on Stony Creek Road took regular climbs up Jimmy’s Peak to see the eye bolts and to take in the scenic views. These guests formed the “Jimmy’s Peak Mountain Club” and recorded their experiences in a book which still exists today.

Six years ago, Lillie Cameron, now in her mid-eighties, resurrected the club, and the hikers scaling Jimmy’s Peak in the past six years have recorded their names in the book, now about 200 years old.

feat they can’t accomplish off land.

Wildlife experts say that loons need from 100 feet to a quarter-mile, depending on wind conditions, to take off.

Simpson said a local resident contacted state Department of Environmental Conservation officials, who called in Nina Schoch — program director of the Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation — and she evaluated the loon’s predicament.

Schoch, a wildlife biologist, concluded that the bird has been doing quite well, although it is out of its element.

“The loon has plenty of food and seems to be healthy and quite happy on the Mill Pond,” she said Aug. 30.

Schoch and her associates at the loon conservancy attempted to catch it several months ago, in an effort to relocate it to a larger pond.

The rescue effort was conducted at night, to catch the bird off-guard.

“The loon was quite adept at evading us,” she said, noting the bird’s actions and energy demonstrated its health. “It would dive again and again as as we tried to get it.”

Schoch said the loon has plenty to eat in the Mill Pond — snails, crayfish, tadpoles, minnows and other

fish.

She said she’s talked with the Department of Environmental Conservation’s Region 5 wildlife manager, and the two of them have concluded that if the loon is still on the pond in late fall, Schoch and her associates may attempt another rescue effort before the pond’s surface freezes up.

But until then, the consensus is to let it enjoy its daily life on the pond.

“The bird seems fine now, so there’s no reason to catch it,” she said. “We decided that a wait-andsee approach is appropriate.”

In the meantime, several local residents are checking up on the bird often, making sure it’s doing well, Schoch said.

“If it gets distressed, we will rescue it,” she said. Schoch and her cohorts have rescued many loons across the Adirondacks.

Simpson is one of those local residents keeping a close watch over the bird.

“I’m confident we’ll make sure we get her out of there before anything detrimental happens — we’ll make sure she’s rescued before winter sets in,” Simpson said, noting that he’s a trout fisherman, and loons are one of his favorite creatures. “But she’s happy now.”

reetings Patrons and Friends!

Where the heck did summer go? I could swear the kids just got out of school and we were all looking at a nice long, enjoyable summer.

Now the kids will be heading back to school (did I hear cheers?) and weekends will be filled with cool days, the last of the barbecues, fall golf, field hockey and football games. Not to mention the turning of the leaves, the arrival of “Leaf Peepers” and garage sale weekend!

A real short column this week, so let’s get it going.

A reminder to all the parents that the Richards Library Summer Reading Program will end on Friday, Sept. 2 and all reading lists must be turned in by Sept.

9. All certificates and prizes will be awarded at the first elementary school assembly at the end of September.

The library will be closed on Sept. 5, for the Labor Day holiday. And I know this might be a tad early, but we will also be closed on Friday, Sept. 30 and Saturday, Oct. 1 due to garage sale weekend. Don’t worry, I will remind everyone again in the next column too.

Our next Richards Library Book Club will meet on Tuesday, Sept. 13 at 3 p.m. in the community event room. This month’s book is “The Museum of Extraordinary Things” by Alice Hoffman. We are still accepting members, so just show up, meet everybody and join our fun group!

And speaking of a lively group, the Friends of the Richards Library is actively looking for new members. For addition information, contact Bridgette at bconnelly08@gmail.com.

Finally, Sandi Parisi will be holding classes on how to use ancestry.com at the library starting in mid-Oct. (we will notify you of the exact days and times in our next column) for those that are interested in tracing their family roots.

Also, our Basic Computer Courses will also be starting in October.

Again, more info in our next column, so stay tuned to The Sun for this.

That is all for now and see you all in two weeks!

the swimming area.”

The DEC bulletin declaring the Aug. 29 reopening was unexpected, because the agency just hours earlier had issued a press release stating the beach would remain closed.

Efforts to contact DEC late Monday were unsuccessful.

But agency spokesman David Winchell said last week that high coliform levels in lakes are due to excrement of humans or animals, including gulls, ducks, dogs, swimmers, or a combination of all of them. Winchell said

that coliform levels in the 20s are routine for Lake George, and higher levels occur in areas where birds and mammals frequent.

While coliform bacteria can cause digestive tract distress, some relatively uncommon strains of E. coli can cause serious or lifethreatening illnesses.

Dickinson said Tuesday evening that recently he’s been receiving a daily phone call from DEC Region 5 Director Robert Stegemann regarding water quality.

“DEC officials seem to think the high bac-

teria levels are generated by bird populations at Million Dollar Beach,” he said, noting that the recent rains have washed bacteria from shoreline bird-droppings into the lake.

Dickinson said that the town and village have four other municipal beaches in the area — which have been open continuously through the summer — and they have not have not incurred water-quality issues.

These venues include the popular Shepard Park Beach, not far away from Million Dollar Beach.

One Hundred Years Ago: September, 1916 Candidates on the campaign trail Republican presidential candidate Charles Evans Hughes and Mrs. Hughes had their first experience of mountain climbing at Estes Park, Colorado. They automobiled to within two miles of Bear Lake and Flat Top mountain and then alone, save for a guide, ambled on to Bear Lake, a trifle under 10,000 feet up in the clouds. Hughes is the son of well known former abolitionist Rev. David Hughes, of Glens Falls. Candidate for vice-president is Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indiana.

Hughes’ opponent, incumbent Democratic President Woodrow Wilson, is preparing to go to Long Branch, New Jersey to Shadow Lawn, his summer place.

Fatal auto wreck Leroy M. Starbuck, 26, of Saratoga Springs, was killed in an automobile accident Tuesday morning when a Dodge Brothers touring car he was driving overturned on the state road about one mile south of Chestertown. He was accompanied

by Harry G. Underwood, of New York and John Dix Coffin, of Albany, both of whom escaped with minor injuries.

Mr. Starbuck left Saratoga Springs at 6 o’clock for his camp at Fourth Lake to pass a few days fishing. Mr. Underwood and Mr. Coffin met him in Glens Falls. They stopped in Lake George and also at Alf Stone’s Halfway House, two miles south of Warrensburgh.

When they left after midnight a heavy fog enveloped the road but the machine was running about thirty miles an hour when it rounded the curve near the Chester Rural Cemetery, near Chestertown. Failing to make the curve the car ran for some distance in the soft sand shoulder of the road. The driver applied the brakes and the car swerved to the other side of the road where it struck a pile of sand and turned over.

Mr. Starbuck and Mr. Coffin were caught under the automobile, the former being pinned squarely under the steering wheel in such a position that he was rendered unconscious and before the car could be lifted from him he died, within a half an hour after the accident occurred. Mr. Underwood was pinned under the car with the back of the front seat resting on his chest and his legs under the dash board. It was a remarkable feature of the accident that he was not killed.

Mr. Coffin, who was in the rear seat, managed to extricate himself and found his companions beneath the car. He was unable to assist them alone and ran to the farmhouse of Clark Leggett for help. Several men were soon on the scene and jacks were secured and the wreck was raised. Mr. Starbuck breathed his last as his body was removed from beneath the steering wheel.

Dr. F.E. Aldrich, of Chestertown, was called and directed that the body be removed to the Leggett home. Later in the day it was taken to the young man’s home in Saratoga. Mr. Underwood and Mr. Coffin were taken in Dr. Aldrich’s automobile to his office where they wounds were dressed.

Essex County catching up on tax auctions Essex County Board of Supervisors hiring firm for title searches

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN – Speedier auctions of foreclosed properties in Essex County are anticipated once title searches are done for two more back years.

The County Board of Supervisors Ways and Means Committee recently approved issuing a request for proposals to have an outside firm do the title searches for hundreds of properties with back taxes owed for 2013 and 2014.

The resolution gets a final vote at 10 a.m.

Tuesday, Sept. 6.

A sale of 2011 foreclosed properties is tentatively set for October, and the searches for 2012 parcels are almost completed, County Attorney Daniel Manning III told lawmakers.

There are 421 delinquent properties from 2013, 664 from 2014 and 723 from 2015, according to the County Treasurer’s Office.

The County Clerk’s Office, which has been doing the title searches, is backed up, supervisors were told, and hiring a company to do the work will speed the process up.

“We need to get back on track,” Supervisor

Thomas Scozzafava (R-Moriah) said. “Once we get caught up, I’m sure the County Clerk’s Office can handle it. We’re too far behind here.”

He said it wasn’t fair to people who do pay their property taxes.

“It would seem to me we have to have some type of policy in place to get these searches done,” Supervisor Roby Politi (R-North Elba) said. “So that’s the reason (for hiring someone), we have not been able to keep up inhouse with the title searches?”

County Manager Daniel Palmer confirmed that was the case.

“We have not kept up with the title searches,” Palmer said.

Manning said 2012 foreclosures are almost ready for a sale.

“When I first became county attorney, we held them (tax sales) every four or five years,” Manning said. “For the last three or four years, it was done yearly. We need to get the money and we need to get things going.”

It stresses the county’s fund balance to go

so long, Scozzafava said.

By law, the county pays the towns and villages when taxes in those municipalities are not paid, then recovers the money from tax auctions.

Only Supervisor Ronald Moore (R-North Hudson) spoke against hiring a firm for tax searches.

He said he estimated doing the searches will cost the county about $216,000, based on $150 a parcel.

“If we don’t make (it back) we’re going to be in the red,” Moore said. “Why would we spend $216,000 to be in the red? I know I’m in the lone dog in this fight.”

Supervisor Randy Preston (I-Wilmington), who chairs Ways and Means, said he realizes the county has procrastinated on the sales.

“There are so many reasons to have a yearly tax sale, a long list of positive reasons,” he said. “We were going to catch up and we never have.

“Everybody’s been pointing a finger at somebody different,” Preston said. “The bottom line is we need to get caught up.”

ABOVE: The Essex County Board of Supervisors Ways and Means Committee has tentatively OK’d hiring an outside firm to do tax searches for some property foreclosures. The hoped-for result is quicker tax auctions.

John Ives Memorial Ride helped Elks youth effort

By Lohr McKinstry

lohr@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA – The John Ives Memorial Ride was reported to be very successful this year.

The charity motorcycle run benefits the Ticonderoga Elks Lodge 1494 Annual Youth Fishing Tournament that is annually held the first weekend in June.

The latest ride raised more $2,200 for the Youth Fishing Tournament. “‘Get Hooked on Fishing, Not on Drugs,’ this is our motto for the youth of the community,” Elks Grand Exalted Ruler Marge Hurlburt said. “This event was started over 40 years ago. John was a great Elk, always willing to lend a helping hand for the youth of the community.”

She said the Ticonderoga Elks do their best to create a drug-free atmosphere for all youth through the fishing event.

“We provide each youth with a fishing pole, and tackle box with tackle and worms,” Hurlburt said. “We start this venture months early to make sure we have enough equipment for

all that attend.”

Hurlburt said kids ages 7 through 14 can enter the tournament, which starts in the early morning, although they don‘t turn anyone away.

“Fishing ends at noon, and hot dogs, hamburgers chips and beverages are served throughout the tournament,” she explained.

“We have prizes for longest fish, total inches caught.”

She said they’re already planning for next year’s fishing tournament.

“June 3, 2017 is our next fishing tournament, which we will be dedicating to John Ives,” Hurlburt said.

The 110-mile-long John Ives Memorial Ride is in honor of Ives, a Ticonderoga

native,who died of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in November 2014 at the age of 64, and was a U.S. Marine Corps veteran.

Michael Rancour, from Ticonderoga American Legion Post 224, and his wife, Linda, are the organizers of the ride.

“He was a vet and a friend of ours,” Mrs. Rancour said.

The John Ives Memorial Motorcycle Ride recently donated money raised from this year’s run to the Ticonderoga Elks Youth Fishing Tournament.

NORTH WARREN

TeamworkÊ andÊ enduranceÊ likelyÊ toÊ fuelÊ CougarsÕ Ê 2016Ê season

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

CHESTERTOWN — With fog hugging the town recreation field, the North Warren Soccer team ran two miles as a warmup before practice. Within the next two hours, they also ran a considerable distance in their dozen-or-so drills.

Their practice session concluded, as customary, with running up and down Dynamite Hill, repeating the sprints with a sense of mission.

With all this running, the Cougar players were working to build on one of their key traditional strengths, soccer coach Josh Gifford said.

“One of the advantages we’ve had as a team is toughness and endurance,” he said. “We want to be really, really fresh in the last minutes of every soccer game.”

Another tradition of Cougar sports is to give every athlete plenty of playing time, leading to a depth of experience throughout their teams’ rosters.

This Cougar toughness and depth of experience has in the past meant their sports teams have surprised their opponents hailing from far-larger schools.

Their gritty resiliency has led their boys and girls basketball, field hockey, baseball, softball and soccer teams to various champi-

onships over the years, remarkable when one considers the school’s small enrollment.

North Warren’s 2016 Soccer team is blessed with 11 seniors including seven starters from their 2015 squad, Gifford said.

“It’s been looking great so far — the senior leadership I’ve seen is amazing,” he said.

“We’re only four days into our practices, and I’ve never seen anything like it.”

The players lost to graduation last June include Mike Williamson, Justin Needham, Orry Bruce, Brian Frasier, Colin Gagnon and three-year starting goalie Chris DeFranco, Gifford said.

“We’ve lost a lot, but we’ve also gained a lot,” he said.

Needham and DeFranco were 2015 Adirondack League First-Team All-Stars, and Williamson was on the Second Team, awarded for his defensive skills — but his brother Jack Williamson, also honored on that second-team All-Star Squad, is expected to step up and carry on the family tradition.

Among the returning half-dozen Cougar starters are Dan Caunter, a senior who scored no less than 24 goals in 2015, and quite a few the year before, Josh Gifford said.

“We’re looking for Dan to get more goals this year than in 2015,” he said, stressing that the team’s success is going to be based on its experience spread throughout the roster as well as endurance and determination.

BOLTON

Battle-testedÊ BCS-WCSÊ soccerÊ squadÊ readyÊ toÊ takeÊ onÊ opponents

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

BOLTON LANDING — Two years ago, Bolton Central Athletic Director Francisco “Paco” Roca, then coach of the Bolton-Warrensburg Boys Soccer team, predicted after a winless season that his players would gain skills, strength and experience and someday taste as much success as their predecessors had.

Last year, the squad exceeded expectations and played competitively in a league full of talented teams. Although their season win-loss record was 4-10, two of the games were lost in double overtime, and several others were close contests.

This core group of athletes are now back, battle-tested, armed with years of experience and ready to compete.

Meanwhile, Roca has turned over coaching duties to Rob Thomas, formerly assistant coach for the team.Former Bolton Central soccer standout Cody Kober, an AllStar athlete, is serving as Thomas’ assistant in coaching the team that hosts 11 students from Bolton and nine from Warrensburg High.

The 12 BCS-WCS soccer veterans are back to compete in the Adirondack League, expanded for 2016 to include Granville Central, which prompted the creation of two league divisions, west and east.

The BCS-WCS Soccer team’s key players include Joe Turner, who returns as goaltender with a year’s experience behind him. A former Warrensburg football player, Turner converted to soccer beginning in 2015 and has accomplished a lot so far, demonstrating strong athletic ability

and good reflexes.

Zach Smith, also from Warrensburg, will be serving as front-line striker, Thomas said.

“We’re expecting a good number of goals from Zach — he’s very fast,” Thomas said.

John Kelly of Warrensburg, named a league 2015 second-team defensive All-Star, will also be a dominant element in the team’s campaign.

Bolton Sophomore Adam Seaman — whose older sisters Abby and Olivia became local soccer legends by taking their 2014 team to the state tournament — will likely be anchoring the 2016 boys soccer team as attacking centermidfielder, demonstrating considerable athletic prowess despite his youth.

Jacob Beebe, a Bolton student awarded as a 2015 honorable mention league All-Star, who Thomas said was tenacious, will likely be a leading player. R.J. DeMeo, also a soccer veteran and a skilled defender, will primarily serve on defense.

Garry Ross, a junior from Warrensburg and a returning midfielder, will provide key assistance on defense. Bolton freshman Bolton’s Kevin Neacy, a skilled modified soccer player who in 2015 took on football as his fall sport, returned to soccer this year, Thomas said.

“Kevin has good instincts on the field,” he said. “As a big, strong athlete, he holds his space very well.”

Thomas expects Kevin to fill the shoes of Kyle Boland of Warrensburg who was a pivotal soccer player last year but has been sidelined for 2016 with a torn ACL from playing AAU basketball, Thomas said.

Headed into the third year of the joint soccer program, Thomas said his team is gaining chemistry, increasing their ability to anticipate each other’s moves.

“Our objective this year is to win the 50-50 ball — controlling possession whenever we can — and attack ing the wing, widen the field —We’ll be using all this to surprise a few teams,” he said. “We’re headed into a competitive season — all our players are working hard toward our goals.”

WARRENSBURG

LoadedÊ withÊ veterans,Ê WCSÊ volleyballÊ teamÊ mayÊ haveÊ aÊ seasonÊ of Ê achievement

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — For fourteen years or so, the win-loss statistics of the Warrensburg Volleyball team would seem dismal to athletes or coaches focused on taking home trophies.

Since the present millennium was young, the team has withstood a long string of nearwinless season records.

The Burger volleyball players, however, have endured the countless losses with considerable grace — a testimony to their collective character through the years.

The players have ignored the scoreboard and concentrated on the enjoying team camaraderie, building game skills and figuring out the sport’s strategic elements.

The 2016 squad is again poised to take on another full schedule with enthusiasm regardless of mere statistics.

Over the prior three years or so, volleyball coach Robin Mahler concentrated on building skills and team chemistry, and she achieved considerable progress with the squad.

At one point in 2014, the team shocked area volleyball coaches and fans with a string of three wins, injecting new energy into the volleyball program.

Mahler, however was edged out of the coaching role as of this year, due to a provision in the local teacher’s union contract.

New Burgher coach Davida Paniccia, an English teacher at Warrensburg Central, has taken over the volleyball mentoring post for 2016. Although she has limited exposure to the sport, she retains a positivism about the volleyball program.

Also, in a visit to a practice recently, fellow teachers John Burns and Mark Trapasso — the latter Warrensburg’s legendary wrestling coach — were assisting Paniccia by leading drills and game play, displaying considerable positivism.

Paniccia, a 2009 graduate of Warrensburg High was a member of the Burgher hockey team that fought their way into the state finals, so despite her laid-back approach, she undoubtedly knows what it takes to rack up a string of wins.

But in her role coaching the 2016 volleyball team, she said in a pre-season interview, those win-loss statistics won’t be her primary focus.

“I want to promote solid athleticism and good sportsmanship,” she said. “It’s not about

winning, it’s about working together, learning the mechanics of the game and having fun.”

Her team, however, may just have their sights on winning games.

A group of accomplished, battle-tested volleyball players are returners to the 20016 team: Jayden Cain, Angie Miller, Ashley Benz, Kelly Angell, Autumn Mahler, Mackenzie Roberts, and Elizabeth Bonk all have considerable skills after playing for years against teams that have won regional and state championships. Cain and Miller were high scorers offensively and defensively back in 2014’s upset early-season victories — they have the skills and determination their to boost their team’s prospects.

Paniccia said she’s looking forward to the year, working with the players, aiding them in gaining team chemistry, and helping them develop skills in the sport that they’ll enjoy through their adulthood.

“Sports is a big deal here in Warrensburg,” she said. “I like the idea that the school is both sports and academic oriented.”

Burgher field hockey team’s depth for 2015 means a balanced attack

By Thom Randall

to beat Warrensburg, Colvin said.

“While in recent years, other teams have focused on one player, they won’t be able to do that this year,” she said. “We’ll be coming at them from all different directions.”

Newcomers include eighth grader Sara Langworthy, Erin’s sister, a promising player who has been drafted from junior varsity, “Sara is very athletic and motivated,” Colvin said. ‘She’s a very solid hockey player and she will be playing significant minutes for us.”

With the nine seniors providing leadership and the younger, skilled players backing them up, Covin predicted a successful season.

“We have great team chemistry — particularly among the nine seniors who have played together for many years,” she said. “And we’ll be seeing some other kids step up this year, putting the ball into the goal.”

Colvin added that the Burghers possess a strong team spirit for 2016 that will take them far.

“We have a really dedicated group, and they’re looking to go out and win games,” she said. “They are the kind of team every coach wants to have — They’re ready to roll!”

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — With no less than nine seniors onboard for 2016, the Warrensburg High School Field Hockey team has a veteran staff ready to take on challengers in the highly competitive Adirondack-Wasaren League.

The team graduated five starters in June, including two key players: five-year varsity All-Star Erin Langworthy and talented, skilled player Baylee Smith.

The 2016 team’s large core group of veteran players includes athletic, savvy goaltender Brittany Frasier alongside tough, accomplished players Madison Sheridan, Zoe Morgan and Riley Fisk, assisted by Mikayla Rothermel and Kayla Raymond, four-year coach Teresa Colvin said.

Opponents may be caught off-guard, because the nine seniors include three who took a year off in 2015.

The team’s depth and widespread talent will allow Colvin to substitute freely, rotating fresh players into play to maintain the Burghers’ aggressive attack.

“If a sub goes in, we don’t lose anything,”

Colvin said. “Everybody will be right there, working together and playing hard.”

The deep roster also means a balanced attack, she said.

LAKE GEORGE — At a recent practice session, Mike McLaughlin, Lake George High School’s Varsity Girls Soccer coach, made a bold prediction as he watched one of his players slam a ball into the net.

His 2016 team may be his “best ever,” he remarked.

“This is a really strong team — it may be the best in the history of the school’s soccer program,” McLaughlin said.

That’s a quite a statement, considering not only the lofty accomplishments of prior teams, but also because the 2015 squad had a stellar year.

Last years girls soccer team tied for first place in the Adirondack League, and the Warriors fought their way into the Section II semifinal game, ending up with a 13-5-1 season record — after playing a tough 2015 schedule that included competing against some schools with far larger enrollments.

Although the team lost six talented seniors to graduation in June, including three league All-Stars — Carly Vreugde, Andrea Smith ad Ally Anable — the team has seasoned athletes returning this year, McLaughlin said.

The talented lineup for 2016 includes striker Lacey Cormie and defender Nicole Nolin as team co-captains, plus defenders Kira Bieber and Kylie Mann, as well as midfielders Sarah Kohls and Gabriella Marchello, plus goalie Rachel Shambo.

“We’re a well-balanced team this year,” the coach said.

McLaughlin said he expects Marchello and Kohls to direct the team’s attack from midfield with “very intelligent and creative play.”

He added that Cormie has been moved up front for 2015.

“Lacey is driven and focused— she’s a real sniper,” he said.

Nolin, an All-State soccer player and top offensive threat in 2014, is returning to the team after a year on the sidelines due to an ACL injury, he continued.

“Nicole brings control, passion and fury to the game,” he said. “She’s one of the most physical players in the region.”

Bieber is moving into the role as a central defender this year, he added.

“Kira is a superb athlete — Our opponents will have a tough time bringing the ball down the middle.”

McLaughlin also predicted that the Warriors’ opponents will have difficulty scoring, noting that in 2015, Shambo — in her third year as goaltender — amassed 13 shutouts.

McLaughin concluded that his players are intent on bringing home trophies this next year.

“Everybody really wants a league championship,” he said. Everyone is excited for the season, and they are ready to go.”

WarriorsÕ Ê soccerÊ motivatedÊ toÊ succeedÊ inÊ 2016

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — During a recent pre-season practice, Blake White — Lake George’s Boys Soccer coach for 35 years — talked about his expectations for 2016 as he watched his athletes conduct drills.

Last year’s team —loaded with talent — had difficulty securing titles despite an admirable 15-2-1 win-loss season record. The Warriors didn’t win the Adirondack League championship, and were knocked out of the Section II tournament by Galway in a tiebreaking shootout after outplaying the Golden Eagles in regulation.

For 2016, Lake George has a deep roster of veterans, Blake said, which includes 2015’s top scorers Alex Jones, a junior, and Kalab Helms, a senior. Both shot 15 or 16 goals last year, White said.

“Alex is strong up front — quick and super athletic,” White said. “Helms is quick and shifty.”

These two are joined by outside midfielder Anthony Cardenas, who tallied 10 goals and 15 assists last year, White estimated, noting Cardenas’ blazing speed.

Blake also complimented Ian Devlin. He said the senior was likely the best left-footed

player in the area, noting Devlin’s smooth moves in evading opposing defenders.

Senior Luke Vanderminden, he said, will be providing the team with leadership as team captain.

“Luke, who scored 10 to 15 goals last year, drives the ball where it needs to go,” White said, noting the four-year player is among the team’s best ball handlers. “He drives the ship — he’s a good decision maker.”

Also in the lineup is Senior Zeke Reynolds, a Section II All-Star athlete who played soccer two years, left the team to play football in 2015 as a kickoff returner— then returned to the soccer team for 2016. White said Reyn-

olds would play a vital role as sweeper, providing the last defense protecting the goal.

“Zeke is tough, fast and athletic,” the coach said.

Junior Nick Hoffis and Jacob Helms will start on defense this year. Hoffis will serve as a backup goalie. Helms was drafted from Junior Varsity at the end of the 2015 season. His brother, sophomore Kagan Helms, converted from football this year.

“Jacob is calm with the ball under pressure,” White said. Kagan is a good ball handler — He’s ‘Mr. Versatility,’ and he’ll be tough.”

Phillip Shambo, a sophomore who has a lot of club team experience, will serve as attacking midfielder, White said.

White said his 2016 team, which accomplished a lot last year despite losing 16 top athletes to graduation, is motivated to go far in 2016.

Many of the players who were members of last year’s team witnessed the 2014 squad defeat the no. 1 ranked team in the area, win the Section II Class C championship, then advance to the regional finals. This stellar 2014 squad set a new school record for scoring 100 goals in a season.

White said this legacy will be inspiring this year’s team toward considerable success.

“This year, my team has very high expectations — they want to make up for their Sectional loss in 2015.”

The2016 Lake George High School Boys Soccer team includes (front row, left to right): Kalab Helms, Phillip Shambo, Luke Vanderminden, Alex Jones, Jacob Helms, Ian Devlin, Daniel Tenne, Brandon Bondy, Daniel Sause, (row 2): Kagan Helms, Jonathan Marchello, Trevor Dunsmore, Quinn Cardone, Matteo Rehm, Devan Miles, Eli Johnson, Anthony Cardenas, Jared Edwards, (rear): Coach Blake White, Finnegan Lambert, Eli Gowen, Clark Mularz, Nick Hoffis, Zeke Reynolds, Brendan Wick, Tarik ElDib and Assistant Coach Brian Farenell.

Man charged with DWI following drunken joyride Paul Bessette, 29, was arrested by the Ticonderoga Police Department following a downtown incident that left vehicles, property damaged

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

TICONDEROGA — A local man has been arrested and charged with DWI after a latenight joyride in a Medicaid taxi.

Paul Bessette, 29, was arrested by the Ticonderoga Police Department on Saturday and charged with driving while intoxicated.

TPD responded to a call from the Burleigh House shortly after 11 p.m. of a grey-colored

minivan driving erratically on Montcalm Street.

The minivan reportedly drove up onto the sidewalk and struck two parked vehicles and a railing outside of the Glens Falls National Bank before departing.

As officers were investigating the scene, the department received a second report of a vehicle matching that description pulling into a residence on John Street.

Officers arrived shortly thereafter and took Bessette into custody.

Additional charges may follow, said TPD Chief Mark Johns, including those related to leaving the scene of an accident and driving on a suspended license, among several other driving infractions.

The vehicle had livery tags, but Bessette is not licensed as a Medicaid transport provider.

Authorities are still trying to tease out the relationship between the suspect and the vehicle’s owner.

“This individual was not an employee of that company,” Johns said. “But someone else in that house was an employee who had the license privilege for that vehicle.”

The department is also continuing to investigate who gave Bessette permission to operate the vehicle, Johns said, who declined to release the name of the owner, citing the ongoing investigation.

Bessette was released and is scheduled to appear at the Ticonderoga Town Court on Sept. 28.
