Northeastern Products warehouse destroyed by fire

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — Volunteers from 16 local fire departments descended on Warrensburg last Thursday, Aug. 27, to battle a blaze that claimed two buildings and a trailer at the Northeastern Products warehouse on Sweet Road.

Dozens of concerned citizens and first responders navigated heaps of smoldering wood chips at the scene of the fire, which began around 6 p.m. and was contained by firefighters within about an hour.

Onlookers reported a giant wall of fire and a number of explosions, as well as an enormous black cloud of smoke which stopped a number of motorists on State Rte. 9, where parked cars lined either side of the street as their occupants snapped photos and recorded videos of the blaze on their smartphones.

No one was injured in the fire, and its origin was still unknown as of Thursday, Aug. 28. By that time, the fire was under control despite a number of lingering hot spots, according to Warrensburg Fire Chief Justin Hull.

“We don’t know anything at this point — it’s still under investigation,” Hull said. Firefighters are taking a “wait and see” approach to the situation, he continued, which allows the volunteers some time to rest and regroup.

Northeastern Products has been a manufacturer of ecofriendly bedding and litter products for veterinarians, breeders, and pet owners through a process using fiber from virgin log since 1955.

“We are thankful for the support of the Warrensburg Fire Department and all the other surrounding volunteer Fire Departments who came to our aid,” Northeastern Products CEO Paul Schiavi said in a prepared statement. >> Story Continued | pg. 14

THURMAN — Last Wednesday, Aug. 26, upwards of 50 town residents poured into the Thurman Town Hall to hear from incumbent Town Supervisor Evelyn Wood, presently running for her fourth term.

The event was intended as a primary debate, at which both Wood and her opponent for the office, Thurman town clerk and fellow Republican Cynthia Hyde, would answer questions submitted by the audience.

However, Hyde declined to participate in the event on the grounds that its hosts, political action committee the Friends of Thurman, are unfairly biased in favor of Wood, citing the incumbent’s familial and personal connections to the organization and a web-site attributed to the Friends of Thurman which has published public support of Wood’s candidacy, as well as a number of letters to the editor from members of the group to other print publications endorsing Wood.

Sept. 10 Primary election to determine GOP nominees

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com

QUEENSBURY — Various candidates in Warren County will be vying in the 2015 primary election on an unusual date this year — Thursday Sept. 10 — to be their respective party’s nominee. This year, the contested primary races are all for Republican party nominations.

In May, Gov. Cuomo signed legislation moving the primary election from Sept. 15 to Sept. 10, enabling citizens to observe the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah.

Here’s the primary election ballot lineup, town-by-town: County-wide, seeking the nomination for the new position of Warren County family court judge are Family Court Associate Attorney Paulette M. Kershko and Daniel J. Mannix, an area lawyer.

In the Town of Chester, voters will be choosing two candidates among three running for town board —political newcomer Ava L Ashendorff, a broadband consultant, is challenging incumbents Michael G. Packer and Stephen A. Durkish.

For Chester Town Clerk, four candidates are seeking the Republican designation: Patricia L Higgins-Bollman, Tanya May, Cathy A. Bump and Mindy Conway.

For the post of Chester Highway Superintendent, Howard E. Meade is challenging incumbent Jason J. Monroe.

In the town of Lake George, there’s plenty of primary election action. Town Supervisor Dennis L. Dickinson is challenged by former Town Planning Board Chairman Keith T. Hanchett for the Republican label. Incumbent Town Board member Marisa Muratori is joined in a contest for two G.O.P. ballot lines by three other candidates: entrepreneur Sean Quirk, former town Code Enforcement officer Robert Hickey,

and Jeffrey G. Martin.

In the town of Thurman, Incumbent Town Supervisor Evelyn M. Wood is challenged for the Republican nomination by present Town Clerk Cynthia R. Hyde.

In the Town of Queensbury, there’s a five-way race for the Republican nomination to serve in the four at-large seats on the Warren County Board of Supervisors. One of the four seats is being vacated by Mark Westcott, who is not seeking re-election so he can pursue other interests.

Incumbents Matthew Sokol, Rachel Seeber and Douglas Beaty are challenged in the primary race by deputy town supervisor Ron Montesi and Daniel Kane, a teacher and the former Warren County STOP-DWI coordinator.

In the town of Bolton, Republican candidates for Town Justice are incumbent Edward Stewart and Edward G. White.

Lake George Skate Plaza opening pushed to spring

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — The Lake George Skate Plaza in Charles R. Wood Park, while likely to be completed in October, will not be open to the public until next spring, Village Mayor Robert Blais said last week.

According to Blais, the Skate Plaza will be completed before construction on the surrounding areas of the Charles R. Wood Park is finished, by which time it will likely be too late to open the park this year.

The construction company awarded the bid for the park earlier this year, WM. J. Keller and Sons, sub-contracted a portion of the Skate Plaza project to a florida-based firm, which specializes in skatepark construction, called Misiano Skateparks. Misiano employees said last week that they plan to work for about another month before Keller and Sons moves in to complete both their portion of the Skate Plaza

and the remaining work on Charles R. Wood Park itself.

These projects, according to Blais, include the completion of the park’s entrances, LED signage, the sidewalks and landscaping, as well as the construction of a playground and waterpark for kids including a wading pool, a fountain and water jets.

“At best, all of this work will be done sometime in October,” Blais said. “The skatepark should be finished earlier than that, but it will probably be too late [to open] by the time the contractor pulls out,” Blais said.

The Skate Plaza is the result of seven years of fund-raising by a group of teenage skateboarders and community activists.

Once it is completed, fund-raising for the second portion of the skatepark, an adjacent concrete skate-bowl, is set to begin, which will cost roughly the same amount as the Skate Plaza.

For updates and more information, find the skatepark on facebook at facebook.com/LGskateplaza.

Misiano Skateparks employees work on bringing the Lake George Skate Plaza to life. The park is expected to be finished by October and opened to the public by next spring.

Minerva honors officer, memorial highway unveiled

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@suncommunitynews.com

MINERVA — The Town of Minerva saw an afternoon of solemn remembrance on Sunday, Aug. 30, as dozens of community members flocked to Minerva Park to attend a ceremony commemorating the life and service of fallen Essex County police officer Eric Loiselle, at which the newly renamed “Sergeant Eric P. Loiselle Memorial Highway” was unveiled in his honor.

Loiselle, a Minerva resident, was struck and killed by a tractor trailer while conducting a routine traffic stop on I-87 in the town of Moriah on Aug. 17, 2005. He was 31 years old.

To commemorate the tenth anniversary of Loiselle’s untimely passing, the town of Minerva hosted a fallen officer ceremony at the park attended Loiselle’s family and friends,

Minerva first responders, the Patriot Riders, members of American Legion and Patriot Guard, the Plattsburgh Police Pipe and Drum Corp and a number of honored guests including representatives from area police departments and elected officials.

Following an invocation led by Pastor Chad Haneman and a rendition of the National Anthem by Bailey Margaret Williams, Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting gave the opening remarks.

“Ten years ago marked one of the darkest times in my tenure at the Sheriff ’s Office,” Cutting told the crowd.

He went on to explain that Loiselle, a deputy sheriff and an Air Force veteran, was one of 20,000 American police officers to die in the performance of duty since the first recorded death in 1791.

“Eric was one of those rare police officers

who could make an arrest, who could write a ticket, or handle a nasty civil matter, and at the end, was usually thanked by the people he dealt with,” Cutting continued. “He was always a respected professional.”

Sen. Betty Little and Assemblyman Dan Stec were the special guest speakers at the ceremony.

Sen. Little applauded the “tremendous love and respect” present at the ceremony, continuing that the highway dedication would benefit not only Loiselle’s son and widower, but also the future generations of his family “to be able to remember who Sergeant Eric Loiselle was and what he stood for.”

“Ten years doesn’t really wipe away an awful lot of sadness,” Little continued. “It says so much about the community when ten years later you gather to actually celebrate his life and the meaning of his life despite the bittersweet sadness you once again experience, as you did on that tragic day ten years ago.”

Assemblyman Stec said law enforcement officers and their role in society are often taken for granted, suggesting that it is important to

occasionally pause as a community and take a moment to reflect on the inherent difficulties of police work.

“In the world today, as we watch the news, there’s always going to be someone who is critical of our law enforcement people,” Stec said. “But then you come to something like this on a day like today and you look around and you see such tremendous turnout from the community, and it’s got to uplift you and make you realize that the silent majority is out there; they are appreciative of what law enforcement officers do to protect us and serve us. It makes me feel good to live in the North Country.”

At the foot of the pavilion stood a small round table accompanied by an empty chair draped in the American flag. On the table were a number of symbolic items, each of them significant to the ceremony: a white table cloth, an upside-down wine glass, a single white candle, a blue ribbon, a single red rose, a lemon wedge, a salt shaker, a bible and a faded picture of Loiselle.

Loiselle’s wife and son Natalie and Derrick were escorted to the table by Undersheriff Michael Badger, where they lit the candle, which Cutting said was meant “to symbolize the upward reach of [Loiselle’s] unequalled spirit.”

The ceremony culminated with a moment of silence in Loiselle’s memory, broken by a four-gun rifle salute and the sounds of “Taps” and “Amazing Grace.”

With that, the sign for the Sergeant Eric P. Loiselle Memorial Highway was unveiled, ensuring that from that day forward the Minerva community never forget the life and legacy of one of their own.

The memorial highway, a section of County Rte. 29, stretches through the town of Minerva until it meets County Line Rte. 28.

New Combs Road bridge opens, bargain price hailed

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

THURMAN — As of last weekend, dozens of rural Thurman residents are now reconnected directly the rest of town, as the new Combs Road Bridge over Patterson Creek has been completed — at a savings of well over $300,000 to local taxpayers.

The bridge opened to traffic Aug. 28, and accompanying paving was completed on the adjoining roadways Monday. The new bridge replaces the prior span which was swept away in the historic flash-flooding of Memorial Day weekend 2011, leaving a deep canyon.

Bob Dibble, one of those long-time local residents, said Tuesday he was relieved the new bridge was in place after more than four years.

“I’m definitely happy with the new bridge,” he said. “For years, I was putting several extra miles on my car when I went anywhere — it was quite an inconvenience.”

The prior Combs road bridge was one of the major Thurman bridges destroyed in what was termed a 500-year calamity. Although Thurman’s roads and bridges suffered about $7 million in destruction, not enough damage occurred regionally to trigger Federal Emergency Management restitution. With state grant funding to restore Thurman’s infrastructure turning out to be minimal, people assumed that Thurman taxpayers would have

to pay for a replacement bridge at a cost of up to $400,000.

But due to a strategic alliance between Warren County Public Works officials and Thurman officials, the new Combs Road bridge was constructed for a price of merely $8,000 or so to be paid by local taxpayers.

Here’s how it was obtained at the bargain price: With the Valley Bridge over Patterson Creek also washed out in the 2011 flooding, building a new span there was considered top priority.

County highway engineers were initially planning to build a temporary replacement span nearby as a detour during construction.

But the erection of a temporary span — considered 95 percent reimbursable with federal and state grant money — was almost the same cost of building a permanent bridge at the Combs Road site. So county Public Works Superintendent Jeff Tennyson proposed to build a permanent bridge first at the site of the old town-owned Combs Road Bridge and designate it as the official detour. The idea was applauded and approved by the county Board of Supervisors.

Monday, Thurman supervisor Evelyn Wood said she was happy that the bridge was finally open.

“For our local citizens to get a new bridge of that high caliber is fantastic,” she said, noting that emergency vehicles could now reach local destinations faster, and utility workers

would now be able to access electric service lines easier.

At a county Public Works Committee meeting Monday, Tennyson praised Evelyn Wood and town Highway Superintendent Pat Wood for their role in getting the bridge completed for such a bargain price. He noted that it was the first time in the county’s history that federal funds were so efficiently used to build an off-site bridge, saving local taxpayers a substantial sum.

“The town of Thurman has ended up with a bridge that will serve them well for generations,” he said.

Wood deferred credit to Tennyson and his staff.

“Kudos go to the county DPW for this innovative project,” she said.

Behaving badly

ast week early morning TV viewers in Virginia were shocked when a disgruntled former WDBL station employee killed a young reporter and the cameraman filming her interview.

We learned the shooter was Vester Flanagan, who professionally went by the name Bryce Williams. He was described as someone who was difficult to work with, easily offended and sometimes feared. Prior to the shooting, Flanagan had previous employment issues that, at one time, would have been made known to the management at WDBJ. Nothing in Flanagan’s background disqualified him from buying the gun he used to commit this crime.

As for his mental health, the standard in federal law is very high: “adjudicated as a mental defective” or “committed to a mental institution.” Nothing in Flanagan’s history indicates that either standard fit him, but it appears many others were aware of his reputation as an unstable person.

So many of these senseless shootings end up being committed by unstable individuals that others knew, but that common knowledge is unable to be put into the public domain for fear of legal retribution.

In 2013 there was a total of 404 workplace homicides according the US Labor Bureau of Statistics. Colleagues and former coworkers were responsible for 74 of those 404 deaths.

During my 40+ year business career, I’ve personally witnessed a number of dismissals that have gone very badly. Thankfully, none ever resulted in an injury or death, although there were times when we called law enforcement.

Employers are frequently warned by human resource legal specialists that no good deed goes unpunished. In today’s workplace one of the most damaging things a well meaning employer can do is to provide employment information to another employer. Even something as simple as a letter of positive recommendation can come back to haunt the employer.

While I’m not advocating for trampling on anyone’s personal rights there must be some form of clearing house that can be developed where private records can be compiled and maintained, if for nothing more than further screening should someone amass numerous red flags from multiple independent sources.

We must find a solutions to help unstable individuals get the counseling they need and prevent them from obtaining lethal weapons.

A community of caring sees the fruit of its labors E

xactly one year ago today, students were set to enjoy their first weekend of the 2014-15 school year.

In the town of Ticonderoga, on a night that should have been reserved for taking in the first home game of the varsity football season, that all changed when just after 11 p.m. Sept. 5, a teacher working late at the school heard a noise and detected smoke at St. Mary’s Catholic School.

Hours later, firefighters, teachers, staff and the community of St. Mary’s school were left to witness the damage as the sun came up on a Saturday morning that changed their lives and those in the community.

There was little time to hang heads and mourn the sudden loss of supplies, materials and the building that had long been home to local children and teachers.

Immediately, plans were put in place to get the kids back into school. Younger kids found a new home when the First United Methodist Church of Ticonderoga opened its door to help another member of the ecumenical community.

With the youngsters set up, the basement of St. Mary’s Church became home for the middle school students, who were able to continue their learning.

Also as quick were the efforts to replace everything which was damaged. Organizations like the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, Knights of Columbus, Elks, International Paper, Rotary - this list can go on forever - stepped up to supply needed items for students like paper, pencils, classroom supplies and more.

Former students now miles away started GoFundMe pages on the internet, bringing in more supplies and needed money.

Dinners were planned. Bake sales by students themselves were held. We reported on the efforts of Aubrey Whitford, who helped design a “St. Mary’s Strong” sweatshirt which raised funds toward the cause.

Catholic charities and many of the regional diocese also helped out. Last week, we reported on a supply drive happening now through Margot Kapusinski, who summers in Hullet’s Landing and is asking for help from her home diocese in New Jersey.

This all shows what a community can do when they rally together for the common good. In fact, the Ticonderoga community is at it again, recently holding Rhyan’s Ride to benefit Rhyan Towne, a young man battling disease.

His t-ball league also held a fundraiser for he and his family earlier in the year.

We have seen this before. We saw it in Keene, Jay and other towns after Tropical Storm Irene blew through leaving a path of damage rarely seen in the North Country. We saw it in Elizabethtown and Westport when communities banded together to help fight for youth in need of organ transplants.

This sense of oneness is special in the North Country, and something we should not take for granted.

With all this being said, the biggest question has yet to be addressed.

On Sept. 6, there is scheduled to be a re-opening mass and dedication at the school.

Part one of closure for the Ticonderoga and St. Mary’s community.

Two days later, students will rush into their “new” school for the first time in 368 days.

Part two of closure.

So what will be the final chapter which will bring full closure to this community?

The St. Mary’s School fire was ruled arson by state investigators shortly after it was put out. Touring through the charred innards of the school, our reporters could see where the ignition points in five locations were, not at all accidental. This is the final question which needs to be answered.

Those accountable need to be brought to justice, the final closure to allow a community, school and student body the chance to once and for all put a tragic moment behind them and remember the healing and celebration which all took place as the community bonded together in the aftermath.

COMMENTARY

Reaching Out and Saving Lives To the Editor: Did you know that experts believe that most suicidal individuals do not want to die? They just want to end the pain they’re experiencing. Experts also know that suicidal crises tend to be brief. So when warning signs are detected early, lives can be saved.

Suicide is an issue everywhere, and it’s an issue in Essex County. But there are services available in our community for assessing and treating suicidal behaviors and their underlying causes. The Essex County Suicide Prevention Coalition is sponsoring a Suicide Prevention Awareness Rally Tuesday, Sept.

8, from 11:30 am to 1 p.m. at the County Government Complex lawn in Elizabethtown. It is free and open to the public. The Suicide Prevention Awareness Rally features community agencies with the goal of raising awareness, providing information and increasing action to reduce suicide.

The Rally is one of the ways we’re reaching out. I hope to see you at the Rally – it’s for everyone and anyone – get help for yourself or get help for someone else. There is hope, and together we can reduce the number of lives affected by suicide.

Town Board passes resolutions To the Editor: Willsboro Town Board consisting of Charles Lustig, Nancy Huestis Eustis, Steven Benway, Shau Gillliland and me, unanimously approved the resolutions to change the grant from NYSENCON for the repairs to the river banks at the former Black Ash Pond to the west side of the Boquet River. We also approved at no cost to the Town to make a study of removing the dam located on Mill Street and School Street. In the resolution for the study Charles Lustig insisted that if the dam was to be removed a referendum of the Willsboro voters would be done requesting the voters to declare if they want the dam in or out. Both resolutions were passed unanimously by 2013 Town Board. During the discussion with the engineering company making the study I stressed that I wanted to see information on possible flooding in the Hamlet area and lamprey eel problem and what would the aesthetic appearance be of the hamlet river area. My concern was that if the dam was out, the water in that area

Fifty Years Ago – September, 1965 Bears are not tame pets In recent years a new spectator sport has become popular in the Adirondacks. Summer tourists, as well as local residents, have found it entertaining to visit dumps to watch bears. Bears are quite elusive and are rarely seen in the woods. However, bears have discovered that they can obtain a good meal with little effort at town and campsite garbage dumps. Because of this, they tend to congregate, sometimes in large numbers, in dumps in the early evening hours. People in turn, tend to congregate, always in large numbers, on the dumps to watch the bear’s antics.

The problem develops sooner or later, usually sooner. People quickly assume dump bears to be little more than harmless clowns. Often this leads to a reckless attitude with otherwise sane people harassing what in fact is a wild and potentially dangerous animal. At this point it should be stated emphatically that this is a people problem and not a bear problem.

A recent incident at the Newcomb town dump should serve as a warning. Early in September, 1965, a man was bitten on the leg by a bear. Happily he was not hurt seriously. The bear was disposed of and examined for rabies which is normal in the case of animal bites. Test results were negative. What happened was that two bears were apparently scuffling and the caretaker attempted to separate them with a rake. At this point a third bear ran up on the dump, through a crowd of spectators and bit one man. More than likely the bear was frightened and the people just happened to be in the way.

It is unlikely that people will stop watching bears at dumps but everyone is asked to have common sense and stay in their cars. Signed, Lawrence Garland .(Note – I can remember when this “sport” was very popular and the Newcomb landfill was the popular place to take the family on a Saturday night, but this is never heard of any more. It must be that covering garbage with dirt put an end to it all.)

Death came suddenly Jesse Merrithew, 62, of Warrensburg, died suddenly Monday night, Sept. 27, 1965, as he walked from the Corinth Mill of International Paper Company where he worked, to his parked car. He has been employed there for 17 years.

Mr. Merrithew is survived by his wife, Anna, his daughter, Elizabeth M. Riley, three sons, Robert J., John W., and Edward L.

would be very shallow and the ice could freeze to the bottom of the river causing flooding in the spring. The problem does occur in the other rivers in the Adirondacks and ice buildup as in other rivers. Also if dam was out the lamprey eel could go up stream and do a lot of damage to the wild life of other streams that feed the Boquet River. It’s my understanding that very little study was done on my concerns and the present board of Lane Sayward, Steven Benway, Charles Lustig. Lori Sheehan and Shaun Gilliland rescinded or ignored the 2013 resolution. A resolution to take the dam was passed.

Auction to be held A public auction of the partial contents of the Leffingwell estate, now known as Sun Castle and owned by Mr. Charles R. Wood, will be held Saturday, Sept. 4, 1965, at Sun Castle, one mile north of Lake George Village on the Bolton Road. Sun Castle was known as Erlowest and was owned by the late Russell C. Leffingwell, former chairman of the Board of J.P. Morgan & Co., Inc. In addition to the Leffingwell estate, many antiques, curios and furnishings collected by Mr. Wood over the years will also be put up for sale. He has traveled in many lands and has acquired rare and unusual objects. Mr. Wood is the owner of Storytown, U.S.A., Gaslight Village and the recently acquired half million dollar Tiki Motor Inn and Tahitian Lounge. Pete Murray will be sales manager and auctioneer.

The property, now occupied by the Rev. Perry M.

Lake George trash, no treasure Seventy-five scuba divers took part on a “cleanin” at the Hearthstone Park beach Sunday afternoon, Sept. 26, 1965, beneath the surface of Lake George, scouring the bottom clean of a summer’s supply of trash. The divers spent most of the day at work on the beach bottom. Most of the junk removed from the lake was cans, odd shoes and lengths of chain. One of the strangest finds was an oarlock embedded in a stone found in ten feet of water by John Burns.

lose your eyes and picture your favorite old barn and silo. Where are they?

As we sat on our back deck along the river a few days ago, Kaye and I sipped coffee and opined about that very subject.

When it’s time to write this column, I beg my muses for inspiration. In this case, a friend posted a photo of a charming wooden barn and sagging silo on a social site and it set my mind to whirling. Kaye’s, too.

She was instantly transported to a wonderfully weathered wooden structure off State Route 3 on the Goldsmith Road. I have passed it numerous times and snapped photographs, but the picture in my mind is indelible. There are many more. My favorites are in St. Lawrence County where those once flourishing dairy farms are now empty, decrepit and moldering.

I’m glad and sad, happy remembering what used to be, but not so much for the fact that many once burgeoning farms are now abandoned and crumbling.

We love to drive around and look for such places.

Kaye and I stop and try to imagine a bustling family heading out to do the morning chores; milking 35 or 40 head of Holsteins by hand; dumping pails of raw milk into cans and hoisting them into the cooler.

Kaye’s memories take her back to what was known as “the Gale” in Jericho, now the home of a local YMCA Day Camp. The house is gone, but the beautiful old barn is still there welcoming laughing youngsters every summer day. I am transported back in time to the early1950s when I worked for Dave Hilts outside Moira in Franklin County. We used the old horse to hoist loose hay from the wagon and pulled the trip rope to deposit it in the mow; then sweating to climb up and “mow it away” with a pitch fork.

We have marveled at stone barns, round barns, pole barns and many more.

We love one on Cape Cod that houses antique cars and another surrounding a carousel. We recall seeing Amish barns in many places. We have visited the wellkept barns on the Hearts Delight Miner Farm in Chazy.

We especially enjoy stopping by some ancient wreck of a barn and imagining what it was like in its glory days.

Bless those of you who have an old barn you have repurposed to hold your collection of antiques or arrowheads or paintings or whatever. And bless those of you who paint and photograph the old barns for us to enjoy in perpetuity.

Warren County to help towns lower road salt use Road-clearing stipends boosted; plows to be outfitted with equipment designed for more efficient salt spreading

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — Winter road clearing in Warren County is likely to be more ecologically friendly and less costly beginning this winter due to an initiative endorsed Aug. 31 by county supervisors.

Warren County will likely be paying towns an extra $8,000 in several months so their snow plows can be outfitted with equipment that spreads salt and sand more efficiently on roadways.

The equipment includes a speed sensor that slows the rate of salt and sand sprinkling as a truck slows down, as well as a temperature monitor.

This latter device monitors both air temperature and pavement temperature in real time, giving the truck drivers the ability to decide how much salt is really necessary for public safety. These two truck retrofits are expected to cut local towns’ expenditures on road salt and sand by 10 percent or more.

Warren County Department of Public Works Superintendent Jeff Tennyson detailed the equipment upgrade at the county’s Public Works committee meeting. His proposed budget, which included the mini-grants for plow truck upgrades plus appropriations to towns for their highway crews’ maintenance of roads within their municipal borders, was approved by the committee.

The $8,000 stipends are to be paid to the towns of Warrensburg, Chester, Thurman, Lake George, Bolton, Horicon, Stony Creek, Hague and Lake Luzerne. The towns of Johnsburg and Queensbury aren’t included, as their highway crews don’t clear county roads within their respective borders.

In addition to the new equipment, the county will be sponsoring sessions to train the towns’ highway workers on how to use the new temperature monitors, and interpret the readings so they can reduce salt and use while maintaining public safety, Tennyson said.

“This is ‘step one’ in moving the ball forward to control what the plow drivers are now putting down on the pavement,” he said, noting the ecological and fiscal benefits of reducing the use of salt.

Tennyson predicted that the equipment upgrades on snow plows could yield a substantial reduction of salt use, resulting in significant savings to taxpayers due to the rising cost of rock salt this past year. Studies by highway departments in the northern U.S. states have indicated that temperature sensors by themselves can reduce roadway salt use by 10 percent.

Bolton Supervisor Ron Conover praised Tennyson for the initiative.

“The changes you proposed are really excellent,” he said.

“The payments for retrofitting the trucks will particularly help smaller towns reduce the impact of salt on the environment.

This puts Warren County ‘front and center’ in leading this initiative.”

Conover also called for Tennyson to look into the feasibility of using salt substitutes that were environmentally friendly.

Tennyson said he and others in his department were already doing so.

Public Works Committee chairman Gene Merlino of Lake Luzerne also praised the mini-grants.

“Spending a little on this new technology is far better than spending it on salt and sand.”

The mini-grants to upgrade snow plows are in addition to a 12.7 increase in payments from the county to the towns for maintaining the county roadways, based on Tennyson’s calculations of prevailing costs. This increase is on top of extra money allocated to the towns this spring by the county Department of Public Works for various expenses, particularly to the towns in northern Warren County.

Thurman taxpayers to benefit The town of Thurman, which clears 28.5 miles of county roadways, is slated to receive $229,939 or an $18,323 increase over the amount pledged several months ago. This represents a total of $60,139 more than the county reimbursed Thurman in 2014. This increase of $60,139 will ease the budget strain remarkably on the few hundred taxpayers in town who together paid $199,645 for highway maintenance, Thurman Town Supervisor Evelyn Wood said.

“For a town our size, this is a fairly substantial increase,” she said. “We’re pleased with the proposed boost in reimbursement —- we see our employee costs rising, as well as the costs of equipment and salt. Town budgets are very tight, so we appreciate the extra help.”

She said she thought the mini-grants were also a good idea to protect the environment and save on salt expenses.

“I’m intrigued with the equipment upgrades -— This could be a boon for the smaller towns.”

Thurman residents keep in touch despite outage

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

THURMAN — Phone, internet and 911 service to vast areas of Thurman were out of service for about two days this last week after a vehicle collided with a utility pole mid-afternoon Aug. 25 on Milton Street in Warrensburg near the Woolen Mill Bridge.

The crash severed optic cable that carries phone and digital signals to Thurman residents. The impact of the crash was so great that it severed the

cable on both sides of the Schroon River.

Thurman Town Supervisor Evelyn Wood said she discovered the outage mid-afternoon Tuesday after she couldn’t contact a residents over a wide swath of town when she attempted to make phone calls.

Concerned about the safety of the town’s residents, Wood and her father Steven then rode throughout town in his pickup truck trying to determine where the break was located, she said.

The two traced the overhead phone lines back to the downed power pole next to the Woolen Mill

Bridge near the former CB Spirits tavern.

Unable to get a hold of a live person representing Verizon, Wood contacted Warren County Sheriff Bud York and county Emergency Services Director Brian LaFlure who publicized the outage and alerted various emergency response agencies.

“I can’t say enough good things about their response,” Wood said. Wood also alerted state Assemblyman Dan Stec about the service outage.

With a primary link to the rest of the world disconnected for more than two days, Thurman residents with satellite or “white space” Internet

service communicated via Facebook, instant messaging services and email.

During the outage, Wood cautioned Thurman residents to check up on their neighbors, particularly the home-bound, elderly, or those on medical alert services, to assure their safety.

Contractors for Verizon reconnected the optic cable, which included heat-fusing hundreds of individual glass fibers, and full phone and Internet services were restored early evening Aug. 27.

Tucci now in race for Chester Town Clerk position

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

CHESTERTOWN — Rebecca M. Tucci, a local resident with a career in customer service, is seeking the position of Chester Town Clerk.

On the ballot this November under an independent label, she is vying for the post along with four other candidates.

For two years, Tucci has worked as insurance service specialist for Upstate Agency.

She also worked for 12 years at two credit unions, before taking six years off to be a homemaker of her family.

When Tucci left her second credit union position, she managed administrative functions and member services for Saratoga Community Federal Credit Union. In that role, she ac-

cepted and approved loan applications on a daily basis, as well as filing accompanying legal documents.

Tucci, a 12-year resident of Chestertown, said her experiences at Upstate Agency and two credit unions will be put to good use in serving the public in the town clerk post.

Her experience has developed her talents well beyond the basics, she said, which include the necessity to be organized, adhering to governmental regulations, maintaining accurate records and balancing financial ledgers.

She added that her work history has also prepared her well to provide timely, responsive and friendly customer service.

“I understand the high level of confidentiality that is necessary and so important — especially in a small town like Chester,” she said. “It’s not just accurately processing a lot of paperwork and filing important documents, it’s also serving

ello to all of the friends and patrons of The Richards Library! I can’t say this enough: “Where has the summer gone?” In the next couple of weeks the kids will be back in school and before you can blink, they will be on holiday break! It must be my age, but time is going by much faster than it did a few years back…at least, it seems that way. Anyway, onto more news from The Richards Library.

First of all, 13 young “engineers” spent a great time with Mary Hogan, from CompuChild, on Wednesday, Aug. 19 learning about levers and catapults and then building, in teams, their own marshmallow launchers. I heard the marshmallows were just flying across the Community Event Room like a World War II artillery barrage (except this “ammo” was softer and tastier). Thank you to all who helped and participated…we will be programming many more fun events in the coming months!

Next, The Richards Library Book Club’s selection for this month is “The Secret Wisdom of the Earth”, by Christopher Scotton, The book club meets every second Tuesday of the month in the library’s Community Event Room from 3 to 5 p.m. There is always room for more members, so if there are some interested readers out there, the next meeting is Tuesday, Sept. 8, at the aforementioned time. Hopefully, we will see you there!

Calling all Summer Readers! For those who have been participating in this summer’s Richards Library Summer Reading program, your reading lists must be turned in no later than Friday, Sept. 4. Those who have read the most books in their grade category will receive a $50 I-Tunes card, and all participants will receive a Certificate of Accomplishment. So remember, Sept. 4 get those lists in to the library.

Now for some business. As you all know, no organization

can run smoothly without having some rules and policies in place. With that said, I would like to quickly mention some of our more common policies for your information and edification (fancy word for knowledge, but you knew that!). First of all, anyone taking out a book must use their own library card.

If you do not have one, we can get you one (yes, they’re free) in under 10 minutes. Secondly, any child/teen that would like to use one of our Public Access Computers, and is 16 or younger, must have a parent come in to the library and sign an Internet Use Form.

Adirondack Wild appeals to Governor Cuomo for discarded oil tank cars

NEWCOMB — In a letter released today, Adirondack Wild: Friends of the Forest Preserve appealed to Governor Andrew Cuomo to take action on a proposal by a private rail company to store hundreds of discarded oil tank cars on railroad tracks in the High Peaks region of the Adirondack Park. The company, Saratoga-North Creek Railroad owned by Iowa Pacific Holdings, recently announced a plan to store up to 500 oil tank cars on the Tahawus railroad spur in the Adirondack towns of Newcomb and Minerva.

Adirondack Wild’s letter disputes Iowa Pacific’s claim that its plan is not subject to state review or approval, asserting that the company’s proposed storage of discarded oil tank cars on tracks located on private lands requires permits from the Adirondack Park Agency and the Department of Environmental Conservation. The group also argues that the storage of oil tank cars on tracks located on state-owned Forest Preserve lands would violate Article 14 of the New York State Constitution, which requires that those lands be kept “forever wild.”

The discarded oil tank cars that would be stored are DOT-111 rail cars, which have been involved in numerous derailments resulting in fires, explosions and spills are required to be phased out by recently enacted federal regulations. Iowa Pacific has conceded that the discarded tank cars will contain an unspecified amount of oil. Adirondack Wild’s letter points out that the tracks where the oil tank cars would be stored are adjacent to the Hudson, Boreas and Opalescent rivers, which are protected under the New York Wild, Scenic and Recreational Rivers Act, and that a derailment or spill could have very negative ecological consequences. The letter also decries the impact the project would have on the Park’s scenic resources.

Adirondack Wild’s Acting Chair Christopher Amato said, “Iowa Pacific’s proposal to turn the Tahawus Tract and High Peaks area of the Park into an oil train junkyard shows a shocking lack of sensitivity to the ecological, scenic and tourism values of this unique region. We urge Governor Cuomo to use the state’s authority to enjoin this hazardous and ill-advised scheme.”

Adirondack Wild Partner David Gibson said, “Iowa Pacific is proposing to place irreplaceable natural, scenic and historic resources, and economically important tourism in the central Adirondacks at risk. These are resources that the people of the State, the Town of Newcomb, the State College of Environmental Science and Forestry, and others have invested in heavily. They deserve the highest levels of concern and protection.”

Adirondack Wild Partner Dan Plumley said, “Iowa Pacific’s plan to industrialize this headwaters region of the central Adirondack Park places corporate convenience and profits ahead of natural resource protection, wilderness appreciation, and rural Park communities dependent on a healthy environment. That is wrong, and Governor Cuomo should intervene.”

as the face of the town.”

She said that serving in the post of Chester Town Clerk will give her the opportunity to plant deeper roots in the community, which she looks forward to.

“I can offer a fresh, energetic and progressive attitude towards the office of Town Clerk,” she said.

Correction CHESTER — An article titled “Meet the Candidates Night scheduled for Chester” on page three of the Adirondack Journal Sun dated Aug. 29, 2015 omitted the name of Rebecca M. Tucci from the list of candidates running for Town Clerk. Tucci is running for the office under an independent party label. beginning of every school year and runs from September to the end of the following August (Hint: Renewals are approaching!).

And while we are on the subject of children, we must remind all parents and/or guardians, that all children must have a parent/guardian with them when they attend a program.

The reasoning is that we do not have the staff to spare to keep an eye on the kids when they are in a program. They, the staff, are needed to attend to the running of the library and taking care of our patrons. So please, if you sign up your child for a program, plan on attending with them (heck, you might even have some fun too). Finally, we like to offer our Community Event Room to groups to use for meetings, seminars, and other various events. As stated in an earlier column, we have certain paperwork you need to fill out if you would like to use our space, and that paperwork is readily available at the Circulation Desk. We must, however, also state that we cannot allow our space to be used to sell merchandise, be used to run a business, or allow the solicitation of business from our patrons. Our policies are located at the Circulation Desk and available for any and all to examine. Our policies are reviewed once a year for content and relevancy. Some of the policies mentioned in today’s article could change at any time at the discretion and approval of the Board of Trustees of The Richards Library.

Well that’s it for now patrons and friends! Our next column will be in two weeks. Enjoy the rest of summer, look forward to the coolness and beauty of autumn, but let’s push winter away for as long as we can!

Outdoor sports remain popular

E

ven though about half of the nation’s population has regularly participated in at least one outdoor activity over the past year, one out of every three kids in the country remain overweight. As health officials continue to study the growing problems associated with overweight and under active youth; a recent study conducted for the National Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association (NSGA) reveals some interesting trends.

Of the 54 sports and activities tracked for the study, NSGA reported an increase in the number of participants in nearly half of them, with open water activities, wheel sports, shooting sports, indoor gaming, fitness activities, and outdoor activities accounting for the for the most significant increases.

Overall, the most significant declines occurred in personal contact sports, snow sports, team sports, and individual sports.

As usual, the single, most popular outdoor activity remains freshwater fishing with over 42.1 million active participants nationwide.

While the “Baby Boomer” Generation, may be the most physically active group in the nation’s history, it is gradually becoming the Geritol Generation. However, the vast majority of Boomers are still getting outdoors, and in significant numbers where they continue to hike, ski, bike, swim and fish. They were a generation that grew up with dirt under their fingernails and grass stains on their clothes, and it appears they’re not ready to give it up yet.

In fact, the Boomers have been largely responsible for leading the effort to get members of subsequent generations outside. Boomers have also been responsible for breaking down the gender gap in such traditional outdoor recreational pursuits as hunting and fishing. Often this has been a direct result of ‘taking the kids to camp’ during the hunting and fish-

ing seasons.

In fact, the most recent survey conducted by the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association indicates that over 47 percent of newcomers to the sport of fishing are women.

It should come as no surprise, as there has been a comparable increase in the percentage of female participation in hunting activities and shooting sports.

With websites such as SheLovestoFish.com, womenoutdoornews.com and the development of the highly successful Becoming an Outdoors Woman (BOW) workshops, retailers have begun to take notice, as well.

Companies like SHE Outdoor Apparel, Cabella’s, and Próis are outfitting outdoor women with clothing and accessories that were created for the female body. Archery manufacturers such as Mathews Inc. are designing lighter bows with shorter draw lengths, and Orvis now stocks waders and fly vests that are developed specifically for women.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation recently adopted new regulations that will shorten the annual fall turkey hunting seasons across the state. The new fall seasons will be limited to only two weeks in duration, with a statewide season bag limit of one bird of either sex.

Season dates vary regionally with the season in the Northern Zone running from Oct. 1-14, and the Southern Zone running Oct. 17-30, 2015. According to DEC, “Declining wild turkey populations across the state make it necessary to shorten the hunting season. It is important to responsibly manage New York’s wild turkey populations to ensure that future generations of hunters will have the opportunity to go afield.”

In recent years, prolonged winter weather patterns have adversely affected the turkey breeding season which occurs in the Spring across NY state.

Contribution from United Way to provide support for women vets LAKE GEORGE — Thanks to a generous contribution from United Way Adirondack Region, Creative Healing Connections was able to give scholarships for women veterans to attend their arts and reintegration retreat this August at Wiawaka Center for Women on Lake George. The retreat provided participants an opportunity to meet other women veterans living with similar challenges such as PTSD and MST, in a peaceful natural setting. The veterans engaged in a wide variety of activities designed to enhance one’s quality of life.

Experiences include everything from nature walks, yoga and massage to learning how to express oneself through the arts.

Wiawaka Center for Women on Lake George is the country’s oldest retreat site for women. Founded by the Suffragettes of Troy, the women love the camaraderie, share stories, and being in a safe place where one can freely express feelings and gain wisdom from others. “The individual is able to control their level of comfort and take from the retreat as much

or as little as she wants,” said Colleen O’Connor, an Army veteran who attended. “It was an odd feeling to have control. As a Veteran, to have an option of control and decision-making is foreign. This retreat reached to the deepest depth of my soul.”

“United Way’s contribution is invaluable, as it helps us ensure that any woman who wishes to attend can afford to do so,” said Carolyn Bischoff, director of Creative Healing Connections. “We greatly appreciate their support.”

Creative Healing Connection’s next retreat is for women living with cancer and other chronic illness, and will be held at Great Camp Sagamore in Raquette Lake, Friday, Sept. 18 to Sept. 20, during the peak of the fall foliage season. Scholarships and some spaces are available for this retreat.

Those interested are urged to contact Carolyn Bischoff at 538-6723, and email director@creativehealingconnections. org.

Wood responds << Continued from | p. 1

Thurman suggesting Hyde would attend the event despite her lack of RSVP. Instead of a debate, the people of Thurman used the opportunity to learn more about their current supervisor’s activities during her tenure in office, as well as her vision for the future of the town should she be re-elected.

The board’s ‘whitespace’ initiative, the town’s ethics and disclosure policies and Wood’s dealings at the county board of supervisors were among the main points addressed by the supervisor over the course of nearly two hours at the podium.

Thom Randall was the moderator for the event. Randall is the founder of the Adirondack Journal and currently a freelance reporter for The Sun Community News.

‘WHITESPACE’ A recurring theme throughout the night was the town board’s recent ‘whitespace’ initiative, a public-private partnership spearheaded by Wood and supported by a $200,000 state grant which broadcasts data signals over unused electromagnetic frequencies between old analog television channels to bring internet to sparsely populated rural areas.

Wood answered to claims that the whole town is forced to subsidize the project while only a small portion of it stands to benefit from it by asserting that taxes have yet to be raised to fund the operation. She added that the funds used to install the town-owned equipment were drawn from the state grant, and that the enterprise fund used for the operation of ‘whitespace’ is comprised of existing capital already in the town’s fund balance, as well as monthly input from those who use the service.

“The operations are funded by the people using the system,” Wood said. “So when they pay their bill each month, their money is coming in to pay the Frontier bill and the electric bill. The people using the system are paying for the system.”

Another submitter questioned the board’s decision to bring internet to the town while there remains to be no cell service, to which Wood responded that the state grant was only offered to fund broadband operations, not cell phone towers.

She added that, to her knowledge, there are no grant opportunities to assist municipalities in acquiring cell towers, so the installation of a tower would inevitably raise taxes for Thurman’s residents.

“Folks, we’re in the Adirondack Park,” she continued.

“We’re having difficulty at the county getting towers for 911 service. If that is something that the people unanimously support, I encourage you to come down at budget time and let them know, and they can build it in the budget for you. The bottom line is, the state was offering money to expand broad-

band, not cell service.”

In addition, she suggested a number of residents using ‘whitespace’ have had a booster installed in their homes which allows for cell phone use.

“Today while all of us, well, a goodly portion of us, were standing around with no service since yesterday, the folks with the ‘whitespace’ and the little booster in their house — their cell phones are working.”

ETHICS/DISCLOSURE A number of submissions dealt with Wood’s policies on protecting the private information of Thurman’s citizens and town employees.

Earlier this year, Wood said, she introduced an “ethics and disclosure policy” to the town board, mirroring that of the county board of supervisors. Wood told the audience that a number of letters have been submitted to the town board in recent months accusing town board members of unethical behavior, but, without the proper disclosure policies in place, the public remains uninformed.

“Unfortunately the gentlemen on the town board voted it down,” she told the audience. “They don’t think we need it, so, as far as knowing if anybody’s got a vested interest in a contract, or knowing if somebody is financing them, we don’t know.”

Wood insisted that she “strongly supports” such action being taken by the town board.

The supervisor also added that she has attempted similar

action toward protecting the private information of town citizens and employees on the town’s computers, which contain social security, health care and payroll information. She asserted that there is a policy in the town to keep private information inaccessible to the general public on the town’s computers, but that policy is routinely ignored.

“You can’t have members of the public in your office on your computer,” she said. “One of the problems we have is that one of our offices does have that going on. We’re getting a lot of complaints that there’s a member of the public who’s coming into one of the offices in this building, and they are seen repeatedly on secure computers, sometimes unattended.”

Wood said she disagrees with the board’s decision against taking action on this issue, citing that a majority vote is needed to do so.

COUNTY DEALINGS A number of submitters also asked Wood to articulate her personal understanding of her role as the Thurman representative at the warren county board of supervisors.

Wood responded that her experience at the county board has been and will continue to be an asset for the town of Thurman, citing her relationships with other supervisors and officials at the Department of Public Works as major contributing factors to the repairing of the Combs Road bridge in the town which was damaged in Hurricane Irene.

At a public hearing for the repairs to Thurman’s Valley Road bridge, she said, it was determined that a temporary bridge would be built and then torn down once the construction was finished to allow for uninterrupted traffic flow.

Through her conversations with the head of the DPW, she said, it was concluded to be more beneficial for the $350,000 allotted for the interim bridge be used to repair the Combs Road bridge, which could then be used as a detour throughout the duration of the repairs to the Valley Road bridge.

“We had no money to replace it, there’s no grant funding, no FEMA money — we’d looked everywhere,” Wood said.

“We thought that bridge was going to be closed forever.”

The town of Thurman paid the $8,000 match toward the bridge, she said, and the county hired contractors to pay the prevailing wage, so no town employees were required to work on the project.

“That’s where being down at the county pays off,” she concluded. “You’d be wise to remember the working relationship your supervisor has with the county is going to impact how you get your grants. You’ve got to go down, and you’ve got to advocate for your town.”

Another similar event is in the works, scheduled to be held before the general election in October, at which both candidates will again be invited to answer questions submitted by Thurman’s citizens.

Ovarian cancer << Continued from | p. 1

Month — for compelling reasons.

Ovarian cancer is called “the silent killer” because it often progresses undiagnosed.

Symptoms are often subtle and people often attribute them to other benign ailments, Hotaling and Smith said.

An estimated 41 percent of ovarian cancer patients are treated for other conditions before being diagnosed with ovarian cancer, national statistics indicate.

While other forms of cancer have prescreening strategies, ovarian cancer does not.

For instance, a pap smear does not detect it.

Genetic testing, however, can be helpful.

Knowledge of the disease and its symptoms is vital, because diagnosis is often delayed, decreasing survival rates dramatically, both Hotaling and Smith said.

“I had ovarian cancer and I didn’t know it,” Smith said. “The disease is not easily diagnosed, and regular check-ups often don’t detect it.”

Hotaling, 42, said her ovarian cancer wasn’t diagnosed initially, although she told doctors of her bloating, back and abdominal pain, a lack of appetite, and always feeling full. She

www.suncommunitynews.com

was finally diagnosed at age 39 in 2012 after her employer, eye surgeon Dr. Roger Brassell of Glens Falls Eye Associates, recognized that she might be afflicted with ovarian cancer. Hotaling worked for years as the surgical scheduler for Glens Falls Eye Associates, but left work in August 2013 due to her cancer treatment regimen.

Since then, she’s been undergoing various chemotherapy treatments, she said.

“My doctors expected me to pass away last September,” she said. “But there are a lot of reasons I’m still here.”

The reasons may be that despite her battle with ovarian cancer, she’s been developing a business, spreading information about the illness, and mentoring her 14-year-old son Brendan so he can carry on the campaign in the years ahead.

Hotaling has been performing a vital role in conducting the business of Sticky’s Graphics.

She and her husband Chet launched the enterprise in part to keep her busy and productive while undergoing cancer treatments. The business, which produces custom signs, vinyl labels, decals, magnets and many other items, has flourished since it began in 2013.

On a near-daily basis, Hotaling has been answering phone calls, handling finances and scheduling jobs for the enterprise. She said she

was proud that her work for Sticky’s will endure regardless of her own fate.

“I’ll always be here at Sticky’s whether I am here physically or not,” she said.

Hotaling’s comment prompted a response from her husband.

“Kim’s the strongest person I know,” he said.

But perhaps more important than her work for Stickeys, Kim Hotaling is pursuing her mission to spread awareness of the disease, so other women can recognize symptoms, be diagnosed early, and undergo life-saving treatments.

“I want to promote awareness so more women pay close attention to their bodies so they can advocate for themselves,” Hotaling said.

Hotaling and Smith said they were pleased that the government of Warrensburg has officially declared September as Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, and various businesses have endorsed the local campaign to defeat the disease.

Nearly 175,000 women in the U.S. are now enduring ovarian cancer or have a history of ovarian cancer. About 22,000 women in the U.S. are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year, and about 14,500 annually die from the disease, national statistics indicate.

Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

There’s currently a 44 percent five-year survival rate for ovarian cancer, a percentage that is slowly increasing as treatment strategies improve. Ovarian cancer ranks fifth overall for cancer death in women. Survival rate for advanced ovarian cancer is only 15 percent.

The key to surviving the disease is early detection, which depends on women’s awareness of the disease’s symptoms. If not diagnosed and treated early, ovarian cancer is likely to spread throughout one’s body.

Now, only 19 percent of cases are caught before the cancer has spread beyond the ovaries, Smith said.

The acronym BEAT describes ovarian cancer’s most common symptoms — Bloating, Eating difficulties, Abdominal or pelvic pain, and Trouble with urination.

“Awareness of the disease and its symptoms saves lives,” said Smith, a former Adirondack Journal correspondent.

To join the local effort battling ovarian cancer — and display a teal ribbon — call Kim Hotaling at 926-0358.

Otis Mountain Get Down brings heavyhitters to E’town 30+ bands to perform at outdoor festival

By Pete DeMola

youremail@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Zach Allott had a vision: Bring people to the foothills of the High Peaks — lots of them — and ply them with good tunes.

The rest should take care of itself.

Because why not?

Allott and about a dozen Burlington buddies had background in the music business. They were young, ambitious and had the right blend of industry connections and do-ityourself ethic.

While music festivals are common in neighboring Vermont, life across the lake has traditionally been more placid, where most towns roll the sidewalks up at night.

Three years later, the Otis Mountain Get Down has become a success story, with festivalgoers coming from across the northeast to kick back for a late-summer weekend in this sedate Adirondack community.

“When it first started, we didn’t really know what we were onto,” said Allott. “It happened organically.”

They already had the venue, a stretch of land owned by Allott’s dad, Jeff. While the elder Allott also toyed with festivals for a seven-year stretch, they were smaller affairs, mostly bluegrass outfits performing for locals.

Once Allott and pals took the reigns, they got to work cutting trees, building stages and clearing a field that eventually became known as Tent City.

The team of 14 now have more polished roles, including a videographer, public relations person and a facilities coordinator.

“Everyone brings something to the table,” said Allott.

The impact on the community has been measurable. While attendees at the former bluegrass festivals used to watch the music and leave, attendees are now staying on-site and camping. Some 65 percent come from outside of the area, said Al-

Now in its third year, the Otis Mountain Get Down is slated to draw thousands of music fans from across the region to Elizabethtown.

lott, including folks from Boston, New York City and Montreal.

During festival weekend, local businesses always see an uptick in business, said Allott, noting that one year, the Arsenal Inn reported selling out of breakfasts.

Allott expects 2,000 people this year. The third installment, which kicks off on Sept. 11, will see over 30 artists performing, including Black Milk, the Detroit-based MC and producer best known for his work with influential hip hop outfit

Slum Village.

Team Otis also managed to tap Rough Francis, the Burlington-based punk outfit formed by the sons of the Detroit brothers who formed one of the genre’s first bands, Death.

“It’s a big deal,” said Allott.

Future’s bright for Bolton-Wbg. Boys Soccer - as Roca returns to coaching

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

BOLTON LANDING — Francisco “Paco” Roca, Athletic Director at Bolton Central, has stepped back into the role of coaching the school’s varsity Boys Soccer team after a oneyear break.

Honored as regional Coach of the Year in 2009 for leading his boys soccer team into the Sectional Finals, Roca was soon thereafter chosen to head up all the Bolton School District’s athletic and sports programs following that stellar turnaround season.

This coming year might be another year like 2009, when pre-season prospects were

dim, yet the team flourished after they learned Roca’s aggressive, savvy style of play and racked up a string of victories, impressing fans and sportswriters.

Roca played youth soccer in Barcelona from ages 8 to 16, then he played pro soccer until he was age 21. His background and success have served as an inspiration to Bolton athletes.

This year, Roca is expressing upbeat predictions about the team, despite not winning any games in 2014. This lack of wins wasn’t due to a lack of talent — it was a matter of tough competition in the Adirondack League.

Roca said he has high expectations for the 2015 team to gain skills and raise their level of play.

“There have been some very good signs that bode well for the future,” Roca said. “A lot of young players signed up to play soccer and interest in the program has increased this season.”

Top returning players this year include Jacob Johnson, Gary Ross, Aidan Lapointe, Michael Smith, Jacob Beebe and R.J. Demaeo.

All are likely to be starters this season. Roca said that despite this substantial roster, the defensive experience of Joe Connery, who graduated last year, will be hard to replace.

The award-winning coach added that the team will be extremely young — most of the players are freshmen or sophomores.

“The team’s best asset is their desire to get

better and to work hard,” he said.

Helping Roca teach the players teamwork, ball-handling skills, strategy and field vision, will be Rob Thomas, assistant coach.

Roca said his team is dedicated to improving.

“The goal for the season is to become more competitive and to play an attractive brand of soccer,” he said.

Roca concluded that he believes the Bolton-Warrensburg boys soccer program is on an upward trajectory, as a good number of talented athletes are moving up from local youth programs.

“The future seems bright for the team,” he said.

Lake George players inspired by legendary coach

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — At the side of the volleyball court at Lake George High School, All-Star athlete Annalee Eigo and teammate Mackenzie Bennett watched their coach, the legendary Cathy “Panic” Stanilka, give a tip to other players during a practice session.

This upcoming 2015 season is Stanilka’s 40th and final year in coaching. Her volleyball and softball teams have won state championships and dozens of regional and league titles. She recently announced that she’s retiring as the Warrior’s volleyball coach at the end of this season.

One of the winningest and most respected coaches in upstate New York, in volleyball alone Stanilka’s won well over 600 matches and more than 12 regional championships.

“We’re really excited to be on the court this year and play for Panic’s 40th season,” Annalee Eigo said. “Words can’t describe what she means to us — she’s been far more than a coach to us.”

Teammate Mackenzie Bennett also offered her thoughts.

“We’re beyond grateful for her to spend her final year coaching us,” noting that years ago, Stanilka promised to serve as coach through Mackenzie and her peers’ high school years. “It’s just amazing...”

Later, Stanilka credited others for her teams’ successes.

“Through the years, I’ve been very fortunate— I’ve had extremely talented kids, very supportive parents, and an incredibly supportive administration,” she said.

The Warriors’ 2015 volleyball team of five seniors, two juniors, two sophomores and three freshmen have been working hard under adverse conditions to make Stanilka’s final year an inspiring one. With their home gym closed for repairs, the players have been running drills during hot, humid weather in gyms without air conditioning, Stanilka said.

“They’ve been working extremely hard nonstop for three hours every day under very adverse conditions, without complaints — It’s unbelievable,” she said. “This team is absolutely awesome.”

Earlier this summer, the players were competing in summer league, plus sharpening their skills

in several volleyball camps, as well as attending local sessions conducted by a volleyball coach from Rhode Island University, which competes in NCAA Division 1.

“We had 36 of our girls there — all but two of our volleyball players attended,” Stanilka said of the latter.

Not returning to the 2015 team due to graduation last June are Lexi Meyer, Cora Connolly and four others. Six 2015 seniors, however are returning, accompanied by a strong group of underclass players.

Annalee Eigo, the regional All-Star libero and Adirondack League MVP will be among those leading the Warrior squad. She’s a strong server, quick on her feet, great reflexes, and she scrambles to keep the ball aloft.

Eigo is joined by Mackenzie Bennett, an Adirondack League All-Star outside hitter, and

GraceAnn Bennett, a league All-Star setter, as well as other regional award winning Senior athletes Paige Farrington, Anna Zibro and Cassie Piccoli.

Likely to round out the starting team are sophomores Abby Baertschi and Rachel Layton.

Last year, the 2014 team was second in the Adirondack League and lost a tough match 2-3 to Mayfield in the Section II quarterfinals. The final game in the two-and-a-half-hour match was 2824.

“We’d like to do better this year, and it looks like we will,” Stanilka said, noting her players are very skilled, yet dedicated to improve.

“Our team members are very athletic and hardworking, and they seem to have good team chemistry so far,” she added. “Also, the players are a lot of fun, they want to enjoy every minute — but they’re goal oriented.”

“We are all very excited for the season,” con-

cluded Stanilka, who’s been named regional Coach of the Year an astounding six times through her storied career. “This is going to be a good year for me to go out on.”

Annalee Eigo also predicted success in 2015.

“We’re young but we’re ready,” she said. “We have a good season in front of us.”

Mackenzie Bennett added that the team’s youth may present a surprise factor for opponents.

“We’re new — People haven’t seen us, so it will be exciting,” she said.

Burgher field hockey team shows promise for 2015

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg Field Hockey team

is seeking to extend its third-of-a-century tradition of playing tough and contending for championships.

Last year, Warrensburg placed second in both the AdirondackWasaren League and the Section II Class C tournament, a solid achievement considering the tough competition. Their win-loss record was 8-4 in the league, 12-5 overall.

Standouts lost to graduation from this team were talented starters Aineen Callahan, Michaela Nissen, Liz Turner, Catie Baker and Bev Morissey, three-year Burgher coach Teresa Colvin said, noting that the talented Junior Heather Wood will not be playing this year due to an ACL injury.

Promising returning players for 2015 are veterans Riley Fisk and Zoe Morgan, as well as talented veterans Erin Langworthy, Baylee Smith and Madison Sheridan.

“I lost six starters, including three of four players on our front line, but other girls are really stepping up,” she said. “They are being really positive and working hard — like they’ve been doing all summer.”

Colvin said this week the strengths of her squad are chemistry, hustle, speed, defense, and communication.

“This is one of best teams I’ve had so as far as talking to each other, letting each other know where they are on the field, and ‘marking up’ inside the circle,” she said.

“I have high expectations for this team, which mixes veterans and some eager young guns,” Colvin continued. “I expect our team to compete well in Sectionals.”

The new lineup features seven seniors, six juniors, one sophomore and 3 freshmen, Colvin said.

“The players definitely have a good spirit on the field,” she said.

“Everybody’s been getting along really well.”

Colvin said her team captains have been promoting an atmosphere of equality and high expectations for players, regardless of grade level or experience.

“Our captains encourage the players to work hard and do whatever’s best for the team,” she said.

The most formidable weapons for the Burghers in 2015 include All-Star athlete Erin Langworthy, a Senior, at center midfield; Baylee Smith, also a senior and one of top scorers in 2014; and Junior Madison Sheridan, one of top defenders from last year.

While many fans are expecting a stellar season, Colvin cautions that the Adirondack-Wasaren League is as tough as ever this year.

“Hoosick Falls is still a powerhouse, and other schools are really stepping up — competition is getting better and better every year,” she said.

Screening of “46ers”

Hidden History Tour

If you are one of those inquisitive, curious souls, then the Hidden History Tour is for you. Take a ride to the Adirondack Museum on Blue Mountain Lake; in exchange for a small sum, you will be given passage to their Collection Storage and Study Center.

The staff will send a curator with you, to answer questions that might otherwise keep someone up at night. The museum is located on Routes 28N & 30 in Blue Mountain Lake. The “Vaults” will open on Saturday and Sunday, Septe. 12 and 13. Tours are held approximately every 30 minutes, each taking on a separate journey with historic artifacts of the Adirondacks. You can take one, or all of tours. Go to adkmuseum.org to check out the schedule or call 518.352.73 for more information.

Battle of Plattsburgh

The 199th anniversary of the Battle of Plattsburgh, a significant turning point in the War of 1812, will be commemorated with activities every day from Sept. 6-15. Included in the list of events are an encampment on the Kent Delord grounds, a reenactment of a street battle, hands-on crafts for children, a parade, fireworks and the list goes on. To see the full schedule of activities, go to our website at www.suncommunitynews.com.

Any of the above activities, or those on our printed or online calendar will be an amazing way to top off your summer. This is Linda Dolly, and you have my word on it.

Another documentary, “The 46ers,” will be shown in an exclusive public screening at The Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LPCA). The film’s Director, Blake Cortright, will be on hand to give a behind the scenes look into making this documentary about the people who hike the 46 Adirondack High Peaks.

The first 46ers, Herbert Clark — along with brothers Robert and George Marshall — identified 46 mountains in Upstate New York with an elevation of 4,000 feet or higher. Between 1918 and 1925 they hiked to the summits of all 46 peaks. Since then, m o r e than 8,000 people have followed in their footsteps. Although subsequent surveys have found that four of these peaks are less than 4,000 feet, these original 46 remain the basis for becoming a 46er.

The film contains compelling stories, both humorous and heartrending, of

ordinary men and women who have done the extraordinary.

Tim Singer, 46er #1038, explained what climbing the mountains mean to him: “On top of a mountain, it’s too simple to say you’re a kid again, because it’s not that simple,” he said. “You’re just more yourself, you’re the real you and you just like life a lot more.”

This movie, filmed in the backyards of North Country residents, intertwines the beautiful scenery of our Adirondack Mountains with compelling stories.

If you would like to view Blake Cortright’s feature film, hike over to The Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LPCA), 17 Algonquin Drive, Lake Placid, New York.

The show starts at 7 p.m. on Sept 4. Tickets are $10 and are available by calling 518-523-2512 or can be purchased online at www.lakeplacidarts.com. More information about the documentary can be found on the project’s website, the46ersfilm.com.
