PLATTSBURGH — How do you say “mountain biking” or “apple picking” in French? Kristy Kennedy, vice president for marketing at the North Country Chamber of Commerce, said the North Country is the place to go. The North Country Chamber of Commerce and Mountain Lake PBS received $50,000 to launch “North Country Adven-

tures” — a series of short episodes about the North Country. “We want to have fun with it,” said Bill McColgan, director of production and content for MLPBS. “We want our viewers to find treasures and hidden adventures.” Currently, both parties are in the planning stages on what the episodes will focus on. The eight five-minute segments, McColgan said, will be both entertaining and informative, focusing on what the North Country offers, such as agritourism, outdoor recreation and history. The episodes, Kennedy said, will also show what could be done in one’s own backyard — like tapping a maple tree. “We want to tell our history and share all we have to offer,” she said. “It’s going to be a tremendous tool to get visitors in this region.” >> Story Continued | pg. 7

Broadway couple spreads art of music throughout the North Country ROUSES POINT — Whether it be a violin stroke or a singer’s voice, music brings people together. Roger Andrews and Marilyn Reynolds were powerless to that fate. Andrews traveled all over the country singing opera, operetta and oratorio, while Reynolds played three different types of violin: Chinese, electric and Baroque, mostly on Broadway. The freelance baritone singer and violinist met by chance during a joint performance. Andrews eventually ended up in New York City for a job along with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s, where Reynolds played the violin. The Metropolitan Opera Chorus asked Reynolds to join and stay in the city. Reynolds was then able to focus more time on smaller shows on- and off-Broadway to ease away from a hectic schedule. The couple continued to work as professional musicians for decades with prominent people, including Yo-Yo Ma and Paul McCartney. A hectic schedule became an everyday thing. “We had enough of it,” said Reynolds.

Marilyn Reynolds and Roger Andrews Five years ago, the couple decided it was time to leave the big city and retire. They searched three different states for a place near their getaway apartment in Montreal until they stumbled upon a house along the shore of Lake Champlain in Rouses Point. “We loved the house, location and the lake,” Andrews said. “We felt it was the right size of community after so many years in and around New York City.” “Now, we’re really off Broadway,” she continued with a >> Story Continued | pg. 7

WEST CHAZY — Technology is streaming through the Beekmantown Central School District faster than the speed of light thanks to $1.5 million in state funds. The district plans to fill in the technological gaps needed for further expansion of the school’s One to One Digital Literacy Initiative — expanding and updating their wireless and wired networks and purchasing and replacing Chromebooks. If approved by the school board, the plan will ensure the continuation of the district’s initiative for the next 14 years. “People thought the initiative wouldn’t be sustainable,” Superintendent Dan Mannix said. “We look at this as a step to sustainability.” CHROMEBOOKS GALORE The One to One — one student to one device — project >> Story Continued | pg. 7

Channel your inner artist with Jessie Furnia Local woman inspires community with “paint and sip” series By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

AU SABLE FORKS — With instruction, desire and a little sip of wine, anyone can be an artist. Jessie Furnia, the entrepreneur who has started a series of “paint and sip” events across the region, brings out the inner artist in everyone. Furnia started the trend after a girls night out two years ago. When one friend couldn’t make it, she requested Furnia to host a private party for eight people. To her surprise, eight turned into 30. “It exploded from there,” said Furnia. The private parties eventually got too big for the homes. Maria Lazardi Boyer, of Plattsburgh, has attended seven of the sessions. “They’re a blast,” she said. “I always have so much fun.” Next came public parties and events for charities and fundraisers. The first public installment took place at Livingood’s in Peru. Because of the good turnouts, Furnia decided to expand her services from Rouses Point to Ticonderoga and Vermont. Janet McFetridge, owner of Champlain Meeting House, had Furnia host five paint and sips for community members. “We love her in Champlain,” she said. During her classes, Furnia uses her education in art therapy from Clinton Community College and SUNY Plattsburgh to instruct her guests, studying each person through their painting techniques. Furnia encourages guests to channel their inner artist and show it on the canvas. Jackie Douglass of Peru has attended five of the events in order to do something new and fun for herself. Each of Douglass’ pieces are showcased in her home, from nature and animals to abstract art. “My husband and son tell me I’m so artistic, but I’m really not,” she laughed. Many attendees, Furnia said, go in never picking up a paintbrush — or they think they cannot create anything of value. Before attending Furnia’s party, Nancy Ano of Au Sable Forks believed all she could draw was a stick figure. “Now, I can create something of beauty thanks to Jessie,” she said. Furnia hosts at least one class every day -- more so on the weekends in which she hosts up to six. “It’s the best job in the world,” she said. Along with her classes, the Au Sable Forks resident also teaches art in Champlain, at CVTech and a number of nursing homes. Furnia devotes a majority of her time to this not just because she loves it, but to give back to the community.

“You need to give back,” she said. “If I can’t support my community, they can’t support me.” Furnia’s overall goal is to bring out the inner artist in everyone. “When I teach art and host these parties, something magical seems to happen,” she said. “It brings out something awesome in people.” For more information or a list of upcoming events, call 518-637-1700 or visit the Facebook page “Paint & Wine with Jessie.”

City rolls out Discover Plattsburgh event series Campaign is part of an ongoing push to promote downtown attractions By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — Ready to Discover Plattsburgh? The city recently announced its Discover Plattsburgh event series that aims to introduce new and returning events to community members and visitors. The overall goal is to sell the area as a great place to visit and live, said Sandra Geddes, a coordinator. The Mayor’s Cup Regatta and Festival is known as the most time-honored and highly anticipated summer tradition on Lake Champlain, said Geddes. The Plattsburgh Sunrise Rotary hosted the 38th annual week-long event last year, highlighting the long-time Mayor’s Cup Regatta and Boat Parade of Lights alongside new events, such as Kayak Day. The Battle of Plattsburgh Commemoration celebrates the 200 year history of the Battle of Plattsburgh. Last year, the streets were filled with numerous activities that embraced the history of the battle, including a Foolish Bravado Rum Run to honor Aiken’s Volunteers and Kent-Delord House Museum’s Junior Encampment that featured 19th century crafts and trades. The new upcoming Irish Festival will feature a variety of music, children’s events and drinks for the adults. Several non-profit organizations, such as Autism Alliance of Northeastern NY and the Strand Center for the Arts, plan on taking part in the series not only to raise awareness of their own missions, but to increase engagement and promote collaboration within Plattsburgh. First Weekends, an organization that promotes the downtown area, hopes to participate in as many of the events as possible. “First Weekends was created with the hope that events wouldn’t just happen on the first weekend, but all the time,” said Leigh Carter, president of First Weekends. “With that being said, we cannot ask others for help without providing help to others; we are all in this together to support our community.” The city also launched Friends of Plattsburgh — a campaign focused on aiding local businesses — to assist with making the events successful. Geddes hopes with the help of participating businesses and non-profit organizations, the series will grow. Businesses said they were unaware of the details and looked forward to learning more about the project.

Local student filmmaker seeks funds for film By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — SUNY Plattsburgh senior John Linnenbach has a dream: to produce his first film by summer’s end. “Camp Sunshine” is a feature length comedy about three lifelong friends returning to work at their old summer camp. The idea to make the flick came across during his internship with Mountain Lake PBS, who helps their interns with little self-projects, including trailers. He decided to make it a film. Shortly afterwards, he completed a script and found cast and crew for the film, 20 volunteers from around campus. Linnenbach plans to start production with co-producer Joe O’Flaherty shortly after his graduation on May 16. He plans to start filming June 14 and is shooting for a July 1 release date. ABOUT THE FILM Joe, Tawney and Dakota met in second grade and have managed to remain best friends through college. As a last adventure before they disperse throughout the country, the three decide to work at their old summer camp one last time — but they’re greeted with a unwanted surprise:

an old enemy from high school who runs the camp. “They try to figure out ways to get her fired by making the camp disorderly,” Linnenbach said. “It’s a light-hearted comedy and I hope people will like it.”

Meet the cast and crew John Linnenbach: co-writer, director and executive producer

RAISING NECESSARY FUNDS

Joe O’Flaherty: co-writer, producer and Joe Michael Linnenbach: producer

Currently, “Camp Sunshine” is pre-production stages. In order to move into production stages, $50,000 needs to be raised to cover costs such as insurance, costumes and location rentals. If that number unreachable, Linnenbach said the crew established budget increments of $10,000. A film can be produced as low as $800 to $1,000. So far, they’ve raised $500 and are seeking new investors. “It’s been a challenge for us to get funds because we’re students,” Linnenbach said. “We want to make a name for ourselves.” Linnenbach gained his love of film at 8-years-old when he directed a music video with an old-school video camera. “This is my dream,” Linnenbach said. “I want this so much.” The campaign on Indigogo will end Feb. 9. For more information or to make a donation, contact Linnenbach at 315-6574773 or johnlinnenbach@gmail.com.

Winterfest 2016 prepares for liftoff Curling, racing, bonfires on deck for longrunning event designed to help local veterans By Natasha Courter

news@suncommunitynews.com

MORRISONVILLE — Local residents are preparing to enjoy another installment of Winterfest, which is set for liftoff on Friday. Dozens of activities are on deck for the three-day festival, which is organized by American Legion Post 1619. New activities planned for this year include a curling competition, demonstrations from the National Guard — including a climbing wall, softball throw and Humvee simulator — and the Abominable Adventure Race for kids 12 and under. Eighty children have signed up so far. Other kid-friendly events include a balloon release designed to honor veterans, horse and wagon rides and all manner of winter sports, including ice skating and sliding with a motorized rope-tow (Festival mascot Ice Chip the Chipmunk will also be on hand). Adults will not be left out in the cold. Old favorites like bonfires and live music continue to be a central part of the event, which is now in its ninth year. Organizers also cited curling as a premier attraction. Forty teams will participate, with 16 of the 32 stones coming from the Tupper Lake Civic Center, who loaned out the expensive items, which clock in at a minimum of $250 each. Preparations have been underway since December. “It takes an army of volunteers to prepare and make the event happen,” said chief organizer Irene Rock. Businesses, too, have been helpful in sponsoring contests and offering monetary donations. Funds generated from a series of raffles, auctions and the sale of food — including the famous $1 Menu — will go towards associations that aid vets. Last year, $12,000 was raised, with funds going to a local veterans assistance fund and to the Fisher House at the Stratton VA in Albany. “If it were not for the veterans, we would not be allowed to have the freedoms that we have today,” Rock said. Winterfest will continue every year to help those who have served this country, Rock said. The event is family-friendly and is sure to lure in a large

crowd. Previous years’ numbers of attendees reach into the thousands. Organizers have selected the New York State Correctional Officers and Police Benevolent Association (NYSCOBA) as this year’s honorees. The group, who spent long hours searching for the two killers who escaped from Clinton Correctional last June, will be honored with an ice sculpture. On Friday, workers unloaded 12 tons of ice from Lake Flower in Saranac Lake. Weather permitting, they’ll be transformed into gleaming pillars by this weekend. It all begins on Friday, Feb. 5 at 4 p.m. with the opening ceremony. Winterfest 2016: Feb. 5-7 at the American Legion Post 1619 in Morrisonville, NY. Free. For more info, call 518-5618706.

ast week while struggling to find a topic for this column my wife shared a passage she found recently in a book authored by Paul Ryan, titled “How We Got Here.” The 1992 passage is from former Secretary of Education William Bennett, titled “Culture Matters:” Individuals and families need support, their values need nourishment, in common culture, in the public arena. Our common culture is not something manufactured by the upper stratum of society in the elegant salons of Washington, New York or Cambridge. Rather, it embodies truths that most Americans can recognize and examine for themselves. These truths are passed down from generation to generation, transmitted in the family, in the classroom and in our churches and synagogues. We must always remember that our country, while flawed, was born by brave souls of common folks who sought to create a country where everyday citizens governed themselves and anyone with a dream, willing to work hard and risk all, could make that dream a reality. Today we hear how ISIS is building a nation of death, destruction and terror if you fail to accept their culture. As horrific as that sounds, we’ve also learned that they are successfully recruiting around the world and even here in America, through social media, with nothing more than an idea. It’s obvious, many seem willing to die and commit unspeakable atrocities in the name of ISIS. Are we prepared to defend and risk all for the American ideals our forefathers handed down to us? What Bennett describes in the passage above is what I believe is at the root of our failed efforts to win this current battle. America is hope and freedom where anything is possible. Sadly we no longer project that pride in our country. America and the opportunity she once stood for are fading. As the strong family structure in our nation has eroded, as the divide between middle class and the elite has widened and the poverty level has grown so dramatically, we’ve lost touch with the hard working, can-do culture we once so passionately embraced. We must rekindle the culture that gave birth to this nation. A culture that can overcome the evil that exists within our world and it starts with us, and is transmitted in our relationships and through our institutions. America, home of the free, land of the brave where opportunity, equality and justice are available for all who embrace the values we share. Dan Alexander is CEO of Sun Community News.

EDITORIALS

New York: Welcome to the state of authoritarianism

ust weeks into the new year, 2016 is already looking more like 1984. New government regulations to monitor discussions between reporters and publicists are now in place. Last week, the state’s Joint Commission on Public Ethics (JCOPE) voted 10-3 to expand the definition of lobbying to include discussions between editorial boards and public relations firms. PR teams now have to register as lobbyists. Each month, they will be required to submit reports to Albany bureaucrats. Yes, you heard that correctly: Here in New York, an entire industry now requires government permission to speak with the press. So much for the Fourth Estate. According to the policy, “a public relations consultant who contacts a reporter or editorial board in an attempt to get the media outlet to advance the client’s message would also be delivering a [lobbying] message.” The panel’s decision is a reprehensible and ignorant edict that smacks of Big Brother. It does absolutely nothing to move the needle on ethics reform in Albany, its intended purpose. Advocates say the rules will keep readers informed if newspapers have underlying motives for their opinion pieces. JCOPE says consultants use the media to influence lawmakers through editorials. That reasoning is beyond stupid. The integrity of the press withstanding, it’s not as if PR professionals need us to gain access to lawmakers. And as Dean Skelos and Sheldon Silver have taught us, politicians do not need the press to help facilitate their malfeasance. Just like the rest of Albany’s so-called ethics reforms, the decision is smoke and mirrors. Talking to editorial boards is not an ethics violation that needs to be regulated. As reporters and editors, it’s our job to meet with all elements of the populace — including, yes, groups who want to push their agenda. We do it all the time. In the past year, for instance, we’ve engaged in substantive discussions with a number of environmental, nonprofit and healthcare groups. Politicians, too, meet with us on a regular basis. All sources try to steer the narrative in one direction or another. Sometimes they have valid points, sometimes they don’t. But to insinuate we carry anyone’s water is insulting. Op-eds serve as public education. Our job is to be watchdogs for the people. We reserve the right to discuss anything with anyone whenever we damn well please without government interference. New York Press Association chief Michelle Rea called the policy “a dangerous proposition.” We agree. We’re also alarmed at the commission’s makeup.

The JCOPE panel has been stacked by the very same people whom they are supposed to be monitoring. Six of the 14 are appointed by the governor, who told the state legislature last month he supported the measure. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has a penchant for the private. Since he took office, it’s never been more difficult to get answers from state officials. Even the most pedestrian questions have be to sent through a complex maze, where each response is analyzed and sanitized before being authorized for release. State police, too, have been muzzled, while other officials have been reduced to automatons in public for fear of saying the wrong thing. Need proof? Just ask the former department of transportation official who Cuomo forced into retirement after he discussed Tropical Storm Irene recovery efforts with a local newspaper without prior authorization. The governor himself hasn’t held a press conference in Albany since June, instead choosing to skirt the reporters who cover him on a daily basis by appearing on radio programs and cable news shows. As such, we see no reason to believe any daylight exists between the governor and his six appointees. A further six JCOPE members are appointed by the speaker and senate majority leader. You might recall the two now-former occupants of those offices are convicted felons awaiting sentencing on federal corruption changes. The remaining two are appointed by each minority leader. It gets better: JCOPE Chairman Daniel Horwitz has even indicated that he doesn’t believe in free speech. In an interview with Ragan’s PR Daily last week, Horowitz called the new policies a “reasonable regulation of speech.” Say what? It’s simply Orwellian doublespeak. Numerous questions remain: Who will have access to the conversations? What role did Cuomo have in this report? Were any members of the press consulted? What happens to PR professionals who don’t comply? What’s the difference between a PR team and a nonprofit? Wouldn’t the reporters who cover these politicians on a day-to-day basis be just as influenced by lobbyists as editorial boards? Why wasn’t this done through our elected legislature instead of a handpicked Politburo? Albany is out of control. Regulations that create layers of bureaucracy to document every social media post, text message and phone call from reporters to publicists is un-American. All of this — the monitoring, red tape and deep streaks of authoritarianism — are reminiscent of Moscow, Pyongyang and Beijing. Trust us, we’ve been there.

Saratoga County coffee biz lands Super Bowl slot Death Wish Coffee beat out 15,000 challengers to win the 30-second commercial By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ROUND LAKE — A local small business is set to gain some major national exposure during this year’s Super Bowl. Saratoga County-based Death Wish Coffee won a competition sponsored by software company Intuit, who offered small businesses around the country free advertising space during the big game. Death Wish beat out more than 15,000 small businesses. The 30-second spot is slated to run in the third quarter. The decision was made by Intuit employees and voting from the general public. Anticipation grew as the brand learned they made the Top 10, then the top 3, and eventually, after a flurry of voting by their fans — as well as celebrities like heavy metal guitarist Zakk Wylde — the top slot. “We were ecstatic and borderline in tears,” said Marketing Director Teah Teriele. While the team found out in August, they kept it under wraps until the announcement was made on Thursday.

Intuit linked up with CA-based marketing agency RPA, a common Super Bowl ad creator, who came up with three concepts. RPA ran them by founder Mike Brown, who selected the Viking-themed spot — designed to illustrate the brand’s strong, highly-caffeinated brew — as his favorite. Team Death Wish predicts the slot, which is set to air on Feb. 7, will put them 10 years ahead of their projected growth trajectory. “Are we ready?” said Teriele. “We did everything we could to prepare.” A toy company called GoldieBlox won the debut installment of the contest. Following the ad, growth mushroomed by five times that year. Death Wish Coffee, packaged in sleek black bags with skull and crossbones imagery, is available nationwide and ships globally. The brand was founded by Brown, a Saratoga Springs-based coffee house owner, in 2012 after customers began asking for a stronger product. The brand now boasts three warehouses and are the top-selling coffee on Amazon. The team will watch the big game from Intuit’s San Francisco headquarters. “The opportunity is amazing, insane and we’re all very thankful,” Teriele said. Super Bowl 49 was watched by 114.5 million viewers, according to CBS Sports, making it the most watched television show in U.S. history. The 30-second slots, according to Adweek, are predicted to clock in at north of $5 million.

Death Wish Coffee beat out 15,000 small businesses across the country to win a free 30-second Super Bowl commercial, which is slated to be aired on Feb. 7.

supplies Dell Chromebooks to participating teachers and their students. The idea is to promote future educational tech growth in the school and assist students getting technologically ready for school. When the district first launched the program in April, 33 teachers came onboard and over 600 machines were given out to students. Now, 45 more teachers are joining — leaving the school to provide units to over 500 students. Over 14 years, $975,000 will be going toward purchasing new computers and replacing ones either broken beyond repair or reached their five-year limit. The only condition, Mannix said, is that all teachers need to be on board with the program. Some teachers, however, are hesitant to participate due to lack of technology experience and fear of classroom management. “We have the same problem in this classroom

setting than one without Chromebooks,” said Sarah Vagi, a seventh and eighth grade social studies teacher, said in a previous interview to discuss the initiative. “But when the students go on their Chromebooks, they know that it’s a privilege.” HOTSPOT PROGRAM As part of the initiative, students have the opportunity to take their Chromebooks home with them, a privilege the students’ parents enjoy. However, not all students have internet access at home. In November, BCSD announced its new program called the HotSpot Program, which offers a limited number of free wireless devices to those students. Part of the $175,000 used for the school connectivity portion of the plan will go toward improving and increasing the number of devices. “They’ve been really successful,” said Gary

chuckle. “But we’re really happy to be here.” The musical duo may be off-Broadway, but they’re not done spreading their artistic visions. Andrews recently made the decision to hang up his vocal cords. However, he’s still spreading his artistic talents through directing theater in the North Country, including Chazy Music Theater, the Bed and Blanket Players and more. “I enjoy helping performers get the most out of themselves,” he said. “Most of all, I am exhilarated by brainstorming with the actors so that the

Lambert, director of 21st Century Learning. “We hope that with this plan will be able to continue and expand for years to come.” UPDATING SECURITY The remainder of the funds will go toward replacing an aging 100 camera video surveillance system. The current analog system currently presents challenges to staff who use it and, due to its age and instability, it’s unable to provide adequate uptime and recordings to investigate and resolve incidents. This system will be replaced by a HD camera video surveillance system. “We want to provide a safe environment for all of our students, faculty and staff,” Mannix said. A public hearing on the plan will take place Feb. 9 before the school board meeting at 5:30 p.m. To see a copy of the plan, visit bcsdk12.org.

finished product has their stamp as well as mine.” Reynolds teaches music at SUNY Plattsburgh and the Strand Center for the Arts. She also gives private lessons out of her home to Rouses Point. “I love playing violin and passing my enthusiasm to others who want to play,” she said. “I enjoy the challenge of helping each of my students get the most out of their experience.” Reynolds and Andrews will be hosting a presentation called “On and Off Broadway” Wednesday, Feb. 10 at 7 p.m. at the Champlain Meeting House. The presentation will showcase their life on and off broadway, featuring souvenirs and audio clips gathered during that time. For more information, visit the Facebook page “On and Off Broadway.”

Kennedy hopes, through this campaign, it will bring more Canada and Montreal visitors to the area. Currently, the Canadian dollar equals 71 cents in the United States. While the North Country Chamber of Commerce has seen a decrease in Canadian visitors spending the night, Kennedy said, they have not witnessed a drastic decrease other border states have been seeing.

“I am not confident we can remain immune,” said Colin Read, county legislator and owner of Champlain Wine Company. The Plattsburgh Downtown Association recently met to discuss the decrease in Canadian visitors. Although affordable options, lower taxes and prices, discounts, packages and travel deals through local businesses help cope with the non-ideal exchange rate, they’re still concerned.

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Getting away from it all Gordie Little

Columnist

emember when you took a vacation “to get away from it all?” It’s not easy to do nowadays. Wherever we go, we tend to remain connected in ways we could only have dreamed about fifty years ago. We’re in Kissimmee, Florida, but our cell phones are always with us. When people call our number in Morrisonville, it is automatically forwarded to our condo in the south. Imagine the shock when we’re asked if friends can come calling and we urge them to buy plane tickets. We can watch North Country TV news and listen to back-home radio stations on our phones and lap tops. We can turn on the television in our condo and overload our vacationing brains with politics Ad nauseam, and any other information. Our smart phone can do all that and more, including instant texting and audio/visual communication. We can read our hometown newspapers on the Internet. The same stores and restaurants we frequent back home, are within walking distance here as well. We can go to a theater and watch the same movies you’re watching in Plattsburgh or Au Sable Forks. So, my question is, “did we really get away from it all?” We spent a few days with relatives and friends in our spacious condo. Our granddaughter and her husband reminded us that there are still places where you can disconnect. They traveled to visit friends in the Swiss Alps last year and stayed in what was called a “hut.” They had to hike there with their three small children and to us, their description seemed like Nirvana. No cell phones, no television, no indoor plumbing, no modern conveniences, no nothing—except glorious vistas and personal experiences not to be matched anywhere. Could Kaye and I “endure” such aloneness? Absolutely. I asked and she nodded in the affirmative. We love remaining connected with our myriad friends and relatives while vacationing in Florida, but we could temporarily sever that umbilical cord in a heartbeat, if the occasion presented itself. I remember, as a small child living in Westchester County near New York City, we would take a yearly sojourn to the Mooers Camp Meeting. It took serious planning to pack our gear into the ancient car and head northward on some less than ideal roadways in the early ‘40s. There were many flat tires, empty gas tanks, children whining, “Are we there yet? I gotta pee” and all the rest. My father had the most even temper of any man I ever knew, but it must have been tested to the max in those days. If we broke down along the way, there was no cell phone to call for help. We stopped and cobbled together some kind of repair and headed up the highway. Believe me, it’s far different today and our vacation now gives us a whole new meaning to “getting away.” I admit, though, that we got away from winter as we know it in Morrisonville.

t’s time again to look toward the weekend� There is a true menagerie of events scheduled for the next few days – one of everything, and something for everyone. Music, movies, art, and comedy: the North Country has it all coming up. Now the hard part begins: deciding which one to attend� From Feb. 6 – 27, The Strand Center for the Arts in Plattsburgh will host an exhibit of works by local acrylic painter Ian Burcroff. “My recent paintings involve a process of pictorial dissection. Each composition contains multiple visual fields that contain pictorial impressions of places and objects; metaphorically relating these to broader symbolic themes,” said Burcroff of his work. The opening reception for the Burcroff exhibit will take place on Feb. 6 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Free� Regular gallery hours are Tuesday-Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more info, call 518-563-1604 or visit strandcenter.org. On Feb. 6, the Lake Placid Center for the Arts will host an evening of professional stand-up comedy with The Not Too Far From Home Comedy Tour. The program stars comedian Aaron David Ward and a handful of other comedians who work throughout the northeast and midwest. The tour is truly “not too far from home” for the performers: all the comedians either live in or have ties to the Northeast. The show starts at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. Tickets can be purchased by calling the LPCA Box Office at 518-5232512 or by going to lakeplacidarts.org. Boston-based reggae-rock group Spiritual Rez will begin their two-night run at Lake Placid’s Smoke Signals on Feb. 5. With more than nine years under their belt, the outfit effortlessly “shakes the stage like a psychedelic dance earthquake” at every performance. With years of touring, the band’s sound has been fully fleshed out, creating something unique – rock music that takes a sharp left turn towards reggae. Spiritual Rez will take the

For more information, call 518-962-2949 or visit pianobynature.org. The Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake will be presenting a lecture series, “Farming in the Adirondacks,” with speaker Steve Kramer of the Miner Institute and Hallie Bond. The series will discuss the rich tradition and contemporary applications of farming in the Adirondack region. Homesteading and farming were traditional to life in the Adirondacks in the nineteenth century, and the Adirondack Museum’s collections reflect the impact which farming had on the environment, and vice versa. The event is free to members and students, $5 for non-members. The program starts at 1:30 p.m. in the Adirondack Museum’s auditorium. For more info, call 518-352-7311. The Giant Mountain Studio in Schroon Lake will celebrate the opening of a new group exhibition called “Abstraction and Dimension” on Feb. 6. The invitational group exhibition will feature art with elements of abstraction and three dimensional art, including sculpture, pottery, assemblage, rustic furniture and more. In total, more than 25 local Adirondack and regional artists will have their work on display. The opening will be held from 6-8 p.m. The exhibit is scheduled to run until Memorial Day, but opening day will be the only time attendees will be able to see every piece in the collection. Free. For more info, call 518-351-5043.

New events on deck for winter bash

The 2016 Saranac Lake Winter Carnival will take place February 5 – 14 By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

SARANAC LAKE — Posters adorn storefront windows, the palace has taken shape, buttons have become an essential part of the winter wardrobe and the village bustles with a sense of purposeful determination: It’s here, carnival season. The 2016 Saranac Lake Winter Carnival is set for lift-off this weekend. New to the packed 10-day schedule are a pair of events. For the first time, the famed ladies fry pan toss has been opened up to pint-sized participants. The setup and concept are the same, explained DJ Fowler, the event’s organizer. Two groups of little ladies — ages 8 to 12 and 13-17 — will compete to see who can launch a cast-iron pan the furthest. Fowler is hoping for a good turnout on Saturday for the debut installment. Sign-up is from 11 to 12 p.m. at Riverside Park. After that, Fowler said, “we line ‘em up and start throwing the pans.” Fowler is a seasoned champion, having won the adult contest for her age group. In past years, the cold would cause the cast iron to freeze and shatter upon impact. New pans have been designed for this year’s event. “Hopefully we don’t break them all,” Fowler said. Fowler said the carnival is exciting, in part, because of the evolution of events. “I think they’ve always wanted to do it,” she said of the toss. “It’s good to do new things.” Colleen O’Neill, a spokesperson for the carnival, said she expects the new twist to be a crowdpleaser. The regular fry pan toss will commence immediately afterward at 1 p.m. ARCTIC GOLF BUILD-AN-OBSTACLE Another new event is the Arctic Golf Build-an-Obstacle Contest, which is also scheduled for Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Prescott Park. The rules are simple: Use snow to design a mini-golf obstacle that will be used for the following day’s golf event. So far, six groups have registered. Prizes will be awarded for the three most creative obstacles, with top honors landing $100 and an official medal. Sponsor Mark Gillis, of Blue Line Brewery, got involved three years ago because he wanted to contribute in some fashion. The course has gone on to be one of the festival’s most successful events, he said. Hundreds of golfers participated the first year. Gillis said the event is great for the community.

“Winter Carnival overall is just a huge shot in the arm for every local business in Saranac Lake,” he said. FEELING OPTIMISTIC O’Neill said while the weather has definitely presented challenges earlier this year, the village is feeling optimistic that Mother Nature will cooperate. The Ice Palace is nearly completed — construction was in full-swing on Saturday — while the extended forecast is calling for snow before Friday’s kick-off. But if not, O’Neill says contingency plans are in place. “We’re good at adapting. If we have to, we always have Plan B in place.” Fowler said the best way to enjoy the festival is to get involved. “Just go and have a good time,” she said. “Go and do some of the activities, it’s really fun.” The 2016 Saranac Lake Winter Carnival opens Friday, Feb. 5.

CHAMPLAIN — Despite a hard-fought comeback in the final eight minutes of play, the Beekmantown Lady Eagles were unable to keep their perfect record intact. Instead, the Northeastern Clinton Cougars were able to score a 66-59 victory over the Lady Eagles Jan. 26, avenging their sole loss of the CVAC season and bringing the two teams to a tie at the top of the CVAC standings. “We knew the run was coming,” NCCS coach Frank Dumas said. “We were able to get out to a lead in the second quarter, but we knew they were undefeated for a reason and they were going to have a run.” The Cougars’ run came in the second quarter, after a Kenna Guynup three-pointer gave the Eagles an 18-12 lead. The Cougars would then score the next 22 points in the game, finishing on a 27-2 run and taking a 39-20 lead into halftime. “They played a strong second quarter,” Beekmantown head coach Greg Waters said. “I was happy our girls continued to play hard in the second half.” After Beekmantown shaved one point off the lead with a 14-13 third quarter, The Cougars were able to increase their lead to 23 points at 50-27 before the comeback bid began with the Eagles going on a 17-4 run to cut the lead to 10. Beekmantown was able to get as close as five points at 6459, but The Cougars converted on a pair of free throws to ice the game in the final four seconds of play. Guynup was key to the Eagles comeback bid, scoring 18 of her game-high 28 points in the final eight minutes of play, playing with the determination of someone who wanted to take over the game. Guynup also added seven rebounds, two assists, one steal and two blocks in the fourth. In all, Guynup finished with 10 rebounds. “We were just trying to pick up the tempo and get to the basket, Kenna was the one who was in the best position,” Waters said. Brooke Bjelko scored 17 points while grabbing 13 of her team’s 34 rebounds, while Jordanne Manney had seven points, Alyssa Waters three points to go with three rebounds and a

team-leading three assists and three steals. Gabrielle Rowell and Courtney Guynup each scored 2 points. Kayla Carder and Emily Sample each scored 19 points in the contest, despite Sample fouling out with 3:11 left in the third. “We had two of our best defenders in foul trouble in the fourth,” Dumas said, including Abbie Sample. Carder added 11 rebounds and three assists, while Emily Sample had eight rebounds and four steals. Shaylyn Rowe finished with 12 points, six rebounds, four assists and two blocks, while Abie Sample added 10 points and five boards and Peyton Sample scored 6 points while leading the team with five assists.

Beekmantown wins 4 OT thriller in girls hockey Eagles crowned champs in girls hockey By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — In perhaps the greatest hockey game of the year for either gender, the Beekmantown Eagles hoisted the Section VII title and earned a spot in the Final Four last Saturday. So, how did the season arrive at the finish line? Here’s a look at each of the playoff games in this years Section VII girls hockey championships:

Finals

Beekmantown 4, Albany Academy 3, 4 OT PLATTSBURGH – Kirsten Villemaire could not make good on her first attempt at attacking the goal from behind the net in the fourth overtime of the Section VII girls hockey championship Jan. 30. However, she would get a second chance. After a pair of players fell to the ice trying to control the puck, Villemaire was able to get to it, skating behind the net and briefly falling before wrapping the championship-winning goal off the left skate of the AAG keeper and into the net. “Our coach had told us to put everything on net,” Villemaire said. “I don’t even remember the first chance, I just remember getting the puck and thinking I had to put it on net. I think the goalie was looking for a pass and I was able to get it past.” The assist went to Conner LaPierre, who scored the opening goal of the game almost one hour of game time earlier on an assist from Katie Matott. Albany Academy then scored the next two goals in the second and third periods to take a 2-1 lead before Bailey Carter scored on a Matott assist to tie the game with 3:53 left in regulation on a power play goal. Albany Academy responded quickly, taking a 3-2 lead with just 2:07 remaining on the clock. After two passes missed their mark, the puck landed on the stick of Matott, who shot

one into the crease, where three players were merged together. The puck hit off of a shoulder pad, flying over the goalie’s reach and into the top of the net to tie the game with 21 seconds left. The assist was credited to LaPierre. The two teams then battles through 22:30 of overtime play with no goals, although the Eagles started to show signs of being the better conditioned team. “I think we skate a lot in practice and that helps,” Matott said. “We don’t do suicides that much, we just focus on a lot of skating and being well conditioned.” “They are a small team so it is important to be in strong condition,” head coach Randy Guay said. “We work hard in practice and I think we were in better shape in the overtime.” Taylor Laurin made 44 saves in the victory, keeping Albany Academy out of the nest for the final 28:14 of playing time.

Rachel Peterson made 53 saves in the loss for Albany academy, many coming in the overtime periods, where there was no room for error. The Eagles advanced to the Final Four in Albany this weekend.

Semifinals

Beekmantown 2, PHS 1 The second seed in the playoffs Lady Eagles scored a goal in each of the first two periods then held off a strong attack from the third seed Lady Hornets to advance Jan. 27. Kirsten Villemaire opened scoring for the Eagles just over nine minutes into the game, scoring on an assist from Meghan Flynn. Hannah Gordon then struck two minutes into the second, collecting a rebound off an Abby Gonyo shot for a 2-0 lead. The Hornets stormed back in the third period, just missing on some early chances. With about eight minutes left in the game, Syndey Adolfo was unable to control a pass from Abbie Lebrun at center ice, and the puck made it way toward the net. Eagles goalie Taylor Laurin was unable to cover the puck, and Adolfo took advantage to cut the lead to 2-1. The Hornets were unable to maintain the pressure late, as the Eagles kept the puck in their offensive half, only allowing PHS to pull their goalie briefly before committing a penalty. Corrine Smith stood out in net, as the sophomore made 30 saves to keep her team in the game. Laurin, a junior, finished with 16 saves to record the victory for the Eagles.

Albany Academy 5, Lake Placid 0 ALBANY – Hannah Tulchinsky scored four times as Albany Academy advanced to the Section VII finals over the Lady Blue Bombers Jan. 28. Rachel Paterson made 26 saves to preserve the shutout victory. Tanner Stanton made 27 saves for the Bombers.

The playoffs opened with the fourth seeded Lady Blue Bombers and fifth seeded Lady Red Storm, where neither team was able to score through 52 minutes of regulation and the first overtime Jan. 26. While it was senior keeper Tanner Stanton keeping the Red Storm off the board with 24 saves for the Bombers, it was little sister Tess Stanton, a sophomore, who ended the night by connecting off a Jayde Dukette pass 10 seconds into the second overtime to give the Bombers the game-winning goal. Lyndsay Reeve kept the Red Storm in the game with 32 saves.
