Honor Flight receives sendoff
LOCAL
By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — This weekend marked the return to the skies of North Country World War II veterans, flying their “One last mission” to Washington D.C. The send-off ceremony for North Country Honor Flight brought out a litany of current and former military members, civilians, politicians and police officers to see off the 15 veterans who flew out of Plattsburgh International Airport for the whirlwind 16 hour trip to D.C. and back. Among the speakers were outgoing U.S. Congressman Bill Owens, and New York State Assemblywoman Janet Duprey. Duprey has only missed one Honor Flight send-off since they started flying in 2013.

shawn@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE Ñ The farm-to-table movement is making great strides throughout the country, and no place is that more apparent than at Fledging Crow farm in Keeseville. The farm, which features “Certified Naturally Grown” vegetables as an alternative to organically grown but with the same high standards, was founded six years ago by SUNY Plattsburgh student Ian Ater, who leased 18 acres of hay fields from one of his professors, and set to work building a farm. The farm has grown steadily in reputatutation as well as output in the intervening years. They are primarily a Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA, farm. With a CSA, people pay a fee in the winter and are then supplied with vegetables weekly throughout the 21 week North Country growing season. They make their CSA deliveries to locations in Plattsburgh, Lake Placid, Saranac Lake, Keene and Keene Valley. They also sell at farmersÕ markets in Keeseville, Keene Valley, Saranac Lake and Lake Placid, as well as at the North Country Food Co-Op in Plattsburgh, and Conroy’s Organics in Beekmantown.

New Land Trust in Saranac looks ahead to summer activities By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com SARANAC — The New Land Trust in Saranac might not be that new anymore, but it is still evolving into one of the best kept summer secrets in the region. The Trust is a nearly 300 acre hideaway in Saranac which is open to the public, and has become well known for its winter activities of cross country skiing and snow-shoeing, but is largely overlooked in the summer. To Trust board member Doug Yu, that’s a missed opportunity for both recreation and education throughout the summer. Yu points in particular to the large variety of birds found on New Land Trust board member Doug Yu relaxes at the Trust’s clubhouse on a beauti- the Trust.

The Trust is crisscrossed with wellmarked, easy to hike trails. With no hunting allowed on the property, it becomes a bastion for hikers in the fall looking to avoid the perils of hiking in the same woods as hunters. The few signs of civilization like bridges, benches and lean-tos are all built by volunteers. Many bear the Boy Scout crest as having been an Eagle Scout final project. It also abuts state land, and the industrious hiker could bushwhack from the TrustÕ s property to nearby Lyon Mountain, making it one of the longest hikes in Clinton County. Ò This is a real easy into to the outdoors. It can start someone on a lifelong love of the outdoors,” says Yu.

Local woman wins Poetry Unites essay contest By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Poetry may no longer be the most popular form of literature, but many people who donÕ t read poetry regularly still have a favorite poem, one that means something special to them, or brings them back to a special place from years ago. The first ever New York State Poetry Unites contest was held recently, to bring life to New Yorkers’ favorite poems, and learn what the poem has meant to their lives. One of the four winners in the statewide contest is a North Country resident. Marita Boulos, who lives in Rouses Point and works for Literacy Volunteers of Clinton County was touched by a John Donne poem when she was young. Hers was one of four first place essays chosen. For the state-wide competition, participants wrote an essay about a favorite poem, and what that poem has meant to their lives. Winners will receive a trip to New York City, but more importantly will be filmed by renowned documentary film maker Ava Zadrzynska for a short documentary. Zadrzynska has been running a similar project in Europe for six years, before deciding to bring the project to the Unites States. New York is the first state to go forward with the program. When she submitted her essay, Boulos didn’t think she had much of a chance because her poem is not from a contemporary poet. “I was actually very surprised,” she said. “I’m pleased that they saw the validity in it, how it can mean something to someone in our contemporary world.” The other three winners all wrote about contempury poems. Boulos is looking forward to her trip to New York City, but is more excited about the exposure it could bring to poetry in the state. Zadrzynska has yet to announce when her documentrary will be released.

Ò After all, all these birds are coming all the way up from South America every year to eat the Adirondack bugs up here.” The Trust started its life as an experiment in 1970Õ s communal living, when it was purchased by a small group of SUNY students who ran the property as a homestead. Eventually a house way built on the property, which now serves as the propertyÕ s clubhouse. Six years ago the owners incorporated as a not for profit, and opened the property to the public for recreation, education and preservation.

A friend named Julie Santamaria initiated a fundraiser to help comfort him and his family, to create a trust fund for his daughter and to raise awareness for the disease that robs victims of muscle strength, their cognition and eventually, their lives.

Opinion Burgh Editorial
Talent wanted: residency not required
T
he race to replace Congressman Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh), the well-liked twotermer who announced his retirement in January, has grown putrid. This isnÕ t the fault of either one candidate or the other, but rather the natural byproduct of our political system and the modern-day political warfare hatched by Lee Atwater and perfected by Karl Rove, the political operative who caused waves last week with the suggestion that Hillary Clinton, the presumptive frontrunner for the 2016 Presidential Election, had suffered brain damage following a 2012 head injury. Just sayinÕ , he later shrugged. But upon being released into the cesspool that constitutes our national dialogue, the facts or the context behind his statements were no longer important: the well had been poisoned, which was the original goal. The race to fill Owens’ seat hasn’t been defined by the critical issues facing the district, but rather around the revolving carousel of cheap talking points that even the dimmest and most feeble minds would probably find transparent. ItÕ s insulting. Perhaps the most insidious is the residency issue that has both sides and their entourages — including the national committees for the two major parties who are now pumping major resources into a crucial race that will help determine which party will control the House — crying foul. We think that candidates don’t have to be North Country natives in order to adequately represent the district. You don’t have to live here full-time. Elise Stefanik, one of two Republicans seeking to capture the seat, was born in Albany County. After spending her twenties working in a series of unspecified jobs with fancy titles in Washington, she moved to Willsboro in mid-2013 and announced her candidacy. ThatÕ s perfectly okay. Aaron Woolf, the Democratic candidate, has been dogged since the rollout of his candidacy in mid-February that he is a cosmopolitan carpetbagger from New York City who only resides in Elizabethtown seasonally. Whatever. Matt Doheny, a sixth-generation North Country resident, prides himself on being the only candidate in the race who is really, legitimately, truly from here (never mind Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello, who was born in Saratoga Springs and lives in Glens Falls but doesn’t wear it on his sleeve) and has used it as a common talking point through his campaign, his third for the seat. Good for him. What are you going to do for the North Country? The relationship between residency, place of birth and job effectiveness are only connected by the most tenuous of strands. We should instead be focusing on more important skills like communication, negotiation and the ability to secure federal funds that can boost the districtÕ s moribund economy. The candidates should be grilled on their ability to propose practical, common sense legislation and avoid the wedge issues that generate the pure emotional responses that derail rational discussion. This is what the voters want. This is what local lawmakers want. This is what the candidates themselves appear to want. The only people who give a toss about the residency issue are the Karl Roves of the world. The demographics for the district are not in our favor: WeÕ re older than the rest of the country. We’re losing more people. We’re sicker, poorer and less educated. Public services and civic institutions that were once thought of as inviolable — schools, fire departments, emergency responders, churches, non-profits — are crumbling into dust. We are dying. So if we’re facing an influx of outsiders — whether they’re seasonal residents, Adirondack admirers or simply folks who want to better the quality of life here and want to the district to have a loud voice at the national level Ñ we should listen to what they have to say and push them on where they stand on the issues, not where they sleep at night.

Style & Substance: Looking at life’s series of choices, decisions Dear style & substance, I have a few friends who are always saying things along the lines of, Ò try being meÓ É whether it be that they are overweight, have no money, etc. Whatever it is, it makes me feel guilty for the life I have. I have no idea of how to respond. In beginning to reformulate your responses to their woes, remember that they feel connected to you by your empathy and hopefully, honesty. Your friends may be failing to realize that life is a series of choices with known and unknown circumstances and consequences. They are making you think that they woke up and were in these circumstances by no direction of their own. One thing we can always count on is our ability to still make choices. Maybe you have consciously or unconsciously made good choices, but you have also decided to live with the responsibility of what those choices were and are. It is never too late to change our choice patterns and this may be something that you would like to gently start compassionately presenting to your friends. Some people are perpetually saying they are going to lose weight, get fit, get a better job, but never take any initiative to begin the process. Your new response to these situations could be no response or a very minimal response. You can nod and “hear” them, but remain neutral. There are talkers and there are doers! When you barely respond, it can be transformative as
it points back to them; you are not offering more of an excuse or a way out. It is the kindest way to move someone out of their circumstances. Do not get caught in the trap of Ô guiltÕ . You are not responsible for otherÕ s inertia/ inactivity. We often allow ourselves to feel more responsibility than is healthy when we love and care about the quality of life of our family and friends. Living in genuine gratitude for what you do have and what has happened in your life is a powerful way of being and one which will serve as an example to those around you. Being open about your failures and accepting responsibility is the surest, yet often most painful, way of finding true happiness. We sometimes fail to give ourselves credit for the failures we have learned from, the sweat we have put into favorable outcomes, and the persistence we have used to achieve our own results. Go back and make a simple linear chart of where you started and some of the monumen-

No fraud in petitions To the Burgh: Elise Stefanik, a Republican congressional candidate, recently alleged that her primary opponent Ò played political – and potentially fraudulent – games” during the petitioning process. We were offended. We had just spent countless hours collecting signatures for our candidate, Matt Doheny. We sacrificed time with our family and braved freezing temperatures, snow and wind. Dogs chased us; one of us accidentally fell down a stairwell. We did it because we like Matt. We like that he grew up here and that he started his business and his family here. WeÕ re impressed that he left college with $150,000 in debt - and, through hard work and determination, became a successful businessman. We like that he saved tens of thousands of American jobs during his career, and that he’s still out there trying to help troubled companies regain their footing. Matt is the best candidate, and we were happy to make these sacrifices to help him get on the ballot. The Board of Elections reviewed our work, and upheld 97.4 percent of Matt’s Independence Party petitions. They invalidated just 43 of the 1,666 signatures we all collected.

stressful yet have not updated our resume in five years. We believe that if the person doesn’t OWN the problem, they will never get to work on it - if the blame is on someone or something else, in their mind, they are off the hook. Turning it back toward them is the only way to empower them to make a change. We also believe in slight, positive changes that are oriented toward the desired outcome, that arenÕ t too painful to build momentum and incorporate long term habits. Good luck, celebrate your life and pass on the hope to others!

Letters to the Editor MattÕ s opponent said her campaign is about Ò right and wrong, and setting a higher standard for service. Being honest in public representation is a critical standard in that regard.” By Elise Stefanik’s own standard, she has failed us. She was dishonest in how she publicly represented her opponentÕ s petition. They were not “potentially fraudulent.” They were not “inflated.” They were not attained through “questionable tactics.” We ask Elise Stefanik to put her words to action, and apologize for misleading voters regarding the validity of her opponentÕ s signatures. Otherwise, we can rightfully assume that Elise Stefanik has no intention of doing what she says Ð hardly meeting the “critical standard” we look for in choosing our next member of Congress.

Business school dean steps down
PLATTSBURGH — Dr. Raymond Guydosh, dean of the SUNY Plattsburgh School of Business and Economics, has announced that he will leave the post at the end of the 2014-2015 academic year in order to return to teaching. A national search will be launched shortly for his replacement. Guydosh, who arrived at SUNY Plattsburgh in 1976 as an assistant professor of business, received his Ph.D. and master’s degree in management from the Tepper School of Business, Carnegie Mellow University. He has held the deanship in interim and associate capacities three different times: as interim from January
VFW in Peru. There will be horseshoes, darts and pony rides for the kids. We will have a Chinese auction and 50/50 drawings and food. On July 26th, we will have a bowling tournament at the Willsboro Bowling Lane. This is for the fair as a whole. We will have an earlier kids tournament with a later adult tournament. Will post more information on Facebook and in the North Countryman as it gets closer. Moreen Roy Wadhams

2004 through August 2005 and January 2009 through June 2011; associate dean for five months in 2008. He became the dean July 1, 2011, when he became a full professor. Single Department Evolves into SBE When Guydosh arrived at SUNY Plattsburgh, the business and economics programs consisted of a single academic department in the division of arts and sciences with about a dozen faculty housed in the old Champlain Valley Hospital annex. “Today, we have a School of Business and Economics with 11 separate degree programs and more than 40 faculty in six academic departments plus our Small Business Development Center,” Guydosh said. The SBE received accreditation in January 2002 from the AACSB International — the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business — the premier accrediting agency for schools of business. “Accreditation was just a dream with little chance of realization when I first arrived,” Guydosh said. “Eventually, we became the first of the SUNY comprehensive colleges to achieve that distinction and were among the last programs world-wide to have received a 10-year term of accreditation before that option was discontinued.” Guydosh received the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for University Service and has held a host of positions in the SBE, including chair of the management department, director of the international business program and chair of the hotel, restaurant and tourism management program. He has chaired the Plattsburgh Faculty Senate three different three-year terms, served on various senate committees, was presiding officer of the faculty for one term, was a representative to SUNY University Faculty Senate for more than six years and was the academic vice president of the United University Professions SUNY Plattsburgh Chapter for one term.

Honor Flight
Continued from page 1 Duprey and Owens both urged the veterans, who are in their late eighties to early nineties, to share their stories with their families, in order to keep their memory alive for future generations. Ò What has happened because of you is so incredibly important, please tell not only the facts of what you did, but also the reasons why,” said Owens, adding Ò It is most important that you understand the gratitude we all feel.” But the send-off was only part of what the North Country had to offer their veterans. When they arrived at the World War II Memorial in Washington, they were greeted by the 54 Saranac Central School Students from SaranacÕ s
Freedom Club. The students, along with their advisor Elise Beaulieu organized their yearly trip to Washington to coincide with the Honor Flight trip. The politicians as well still had more to come. While at the memorial, the veterans and their entourage were met by former longtime U.S. Senator and one-time presidential candidate Bob Dole, himself a decorated World War II veteran. Mr. Dole was presented with an Honor Flight hat, and was made an honorary member of the North Country Honor Flight family. Stan Ransom, one of the veterans who flew to Washington summed up the day eloquently. “Perfect day,” he said. A total of seven Honor Flights will fly this summer, five from Plattsburgh and two from Vermont. The next flight is scheduled for June 14.
“We just like to take good care of the land and our community, feed people good food and celebrate the seasons,” said Brittany Harris, who works at Fledging Crow. One thing that becomes apparent at the farm, is that itÕ s all about the young generation, with new ideas about how to do this age old trade. Ater is 31, and co-owner Lucas Christenson is 29. Many of their crew of 10 people working at Fledging Crow are even younger. The farm is currently a beehive of activity, with a new building going up and greenhouses nearly overflowing with early produce. To bring more attention to the farm and the local food movement, Fledging Crow will feature “Crowfest,” a music festival featuring local bands being held at the Keeseville farm. A very limited number of CSA slots are still available for the current year.

Local Flavor: Aleka’s Greek-inspired chicken wing sauce
By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Peter Kritziotis, co-owner and head chef at Plattsburgh’s Aleka’s restaurant, discovered his love of food and cooking younger than most. From five, the Montreal native arrived home from school every day before his parents. If he wanted to eat, he had to learn to cook. For someone growing up with a love of good food, Montreal is one of the best cities anywhere, because of the wide variety of ethnic cuisine found on virtually every street. Kritziotis grew up appreciating the variety of foods and cooking styles around him, an appreciation that finds itself in now in Aleka’s Mediterranean inspired menu today. “I grew up in a place where you never ate just one kind of cuisine,” he says of his early years in Montreal. With parents of both Greek and Italian heri-
tage, weekend feasts in the Sicilian tradition were the norm for Kritziotis. Whenever they had a family feast, he preferred to spend his time in the kitchen helping to prepare, or cleaning up afterwards. But his early independence in the kitchen had more of an effect on Kritziotis than just developing his palate. He knew from a very young age that he wanted to be his own boss. During his teens, he would spend his summers in Queens, working in that cityÕ s ubiquitous pizzerias. He loved the time he spent in pizzerias he says, and wanted to someday open one. “I used to shred all the cheese for the New York Mets. I loved it,” he said. He went to college for business, always with an eye toward being his own boss eventually. He spent time in New York City honing his craft after college, but with family in Montreal, Kritziotis wanted to find a place in the United States where he could settle, but still be within traveling distance to Montreal. Plattsburgh was

that place. Kritziotis stays far away from recipes when he creates his dishes. For him, itÕ s all about how the food tastes and reacts on the individual palate. He tries to explain that distinction to the young chefs who work in his kitchen. Ò Anybody can cook a meal, but itÕ s another thing to train the palette to how something is supposed to be,” he said. “I’ve been up and down the East Coast and IÕ ve taken the best ideas from wherever I went and put my own edge to them.” Late in 2012 Kritziotis opened AlekaÕ s, a Mediterranean inspired restaurant on Margaret Street in Plattsburgh. It’s the culmination of his years of practicing and honing his craft. Pairing his cuisine with the proper wine from their extensive wine list, or with just the right beer, adds to the dining experience according to Kritziotis. Since opening, AlekaÕ s has yet to reach a discernible peak. Business just keeps growing, he says. Now that Kritziotis has added wine-based
spirits to his menu, and eight outside tables, he sees another rise in the works for summer. To the big city transplant, that’s just fine. Since opening AlekaÕ s, Kritziotis has been given opportunities to open restaurants in the greater New York City area, but he has easily turned them down. Ò I love coming to work every single day of my life,” said Kritziotis. “I love Plattsburgh. It’s been very good to me.”

For a dozen wings: 1/4 cup Butter 1/4 cup Feta Cheese Fresh Oregano 1/2 Teaspoon Fresh Garlic 2 Tablespoons of Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice Cook wings. Combine above ingredients, then smother cooked wings. Pair with the appropriate beverage and serve.

Mountains, waterfalls and just too much fun T
he day began bright and sunny, with large puffy, clouds racing across the sky, driven by the strong winds. A high pressure front had moved in after a series of heavy storms had battered the adjacent High Peaks the previous day. The foul weather had all of the local rivers and streams running high with runoff. As I passed through Keene, the East Branch of the Ausable was roaring, but the waters were relatively clear. I though it was unusual as the West Branch flow had the appearance of chocolate milk when I had crossed over it in Lake Placid fifteen minutes earlier. As I approached Elizabethtown, driving along Rt. 9N, all the little streams were flowing with a frothy tumble, and yet The Branch, a beautiful little stream that begins on the shoulders of Hurricane Mountain, was as clear freshly cleaned window. In Elizabethtown, where the Boquet River was nearly bursting over it’s banks, the flow was likewise unusually clear for
such a seemingly heavy runoff. I had traveled to Elizabethtown with the intention of visiting a the local streams, and casting a few flies, but it was painfully obvious that although the will was strong, the way was impossible. Fishing in such conditions is fruitless, as it’s nearly impossible to keep a fly on the water long enough for a fish to see it. As a result, I chose the next best option, which was to enjoy the remainder of the sunny day while enjoying the roar of a waterfall or two. When it comes to waterfalls, Essex County is the place to go, as it has more waterfalls within itÕ s boundaries than any other county in the state. It is understandable, as the county is also home to the tallest mountains in the state, and we all know water flows downhill. My first stop was at US Falls, a popular swimming hole on the outskirts of Elizabethtown, where the tumbling Branch is squeezed through a smooth bedrock gorge to create a series of
High Water conditions appear to turn Split Rock Falls into one large pool, rather than three separate falls.
spectacular waterfalls. The location features the remains of several old dams that once harnessed the river’s flow to power a tannery, a mill and an electric generating station. Today, all that remains is a battered old dam, a grist stone, and numerous concrete bases that once cradled a spillway and delivered the flow to a cinderblock powerhouse. After basking for awhile at the base of the soaring falls, and marveling at the passing rainbows that continued to show in the mist of the thunderous flow; I decided to head south in the direction of the upper sections of the Boquet River near the location of the infamous Ô Malfunction JunctionÕ , aka The Crazy Eights where Route 9 and Route 73 converge and diverge. Located a short distance from the intersection of these two main routes is the junction of the North Fork and the South Fork of the Bouquet River which flow precipitously out of Dix Range. There are easy to follow foot trails located along the banks of both branches, as well as a number of vehicle accessible campsites along the river banks. The forests nearby the riverbed feature a combination of old growth white pine, cedar and hemlock which offer a sharp contrast to the surrounding hills which are covered with wide open hardwoods composed primarily of birch and aspen. The open hardwoods are a remnant of the great fires that swept through the region in the late 1800Õ s. Although the trees are currently leafing out, the hillsides remain mostly wide open as do the riverbanks which have been scoured repeatedly in recent years as a result of historic high water events. Short of taking a trout or two on the fly, there is likely nothing I enjoy more than simply walking along a river corridor. Although I’ve paddled and fished most of the local waters numerous times, I always seem to stumble upon something new, unique or interesting whenever I travel the riverbanks rather than the riverbed. When IÕ m wading the rivers, I concentrate on the fish, while on the riverbanks my full attention is centered on the land. Often it’s just a well worn foot trail, the last vestiges of a former roadway, the abutment of a bridge or a long lost, rusted old, road sign. It is easy to forget that our current roadways were often rerouted over the years, and many of the once popular overlooks are no longer visited. This is especially true along Route 73, where there remains ample evidence of sections of the old route. Although vegetation has reclaimed many of the old banks, it is easy to find the former overlooks, many of which remain littered with the disagreed bottles, tires, wheels and vehicles of 19th and 20th century travelers. In fact, the route of the former Route 9 is still paved as follows through an old forest along the right bank of the South Fork of the Boquet, which is located just off Route 73. The old bridge abutments are still in place, located about a 100 yards downriver from the current bridge over the South Fork of the Boquet on Route 73. Having completed my investigation of the tumultuous tumbling branches of the upper Boquet, I returned to Elizabethtown after enjoying a quick visit to Split Rock Falls. At Split Rock, the combined flow of the two forks created a snapping, snarling, thunderous flow which had reduced the popular swimming holeÕ s three distinct pools into one long, white ribbon of froth and foam. The power of the river was palatable and hypnotic. As I stood on the bank, high above the thunderous ribbon in the stream bed below, I could feel the ground shaking underfoot. There was a thick mist was in the air, which created thousands of miniature rainbows on shafts of sunlight that trickled through the limbs of the towering white pines. It was a surreal scene, and the pounding of the thunderous waters pounding could be felt underfoot. There was the incessant mist on my face, and the sparkle of a million droplets in the air and on the pines. The ground vibrated underfoot, even though it was insulated with a thick carpet of pine needles. The power of the rumbling water was consuming and hypnotic. I could feel it sucking me in as I stood on a ledge high above the flow, and I knbew it was time to go. As I readied to depart, a trio of kayakers pulled off the road and into the small parking lot. They were wearing wet suits, and hurried to retrieve their squirt boats from the roof rack, before hustling down to the river. “You’re not going to attempt that are you?”, I asked them, “You’ve got to nuts!” Ò WeÕ ve run it three times already, and we can probably get in another three trips before the sun goes down” one fellow replied. He quickly turned away and walked towards the river where his friends were already putting in. “I gotta go!” I shook my head, and walked back to my car without looking back. Although I really wanted to stay and watch the scene, I was afraid it would spark some special sense of the past in me, when I too had taken off in a kayak on the very same river. Although I’m much older now, and possibly a fair bit wiser; I really didnÕ t want to let that genie out of the bottle again, because it was just too much fun!
