Officials optimistic about Bombardier rail sale $8.2 billion sale of division expected in 2021 By Andrea VanValkenburg STAFF WRITER

PLATTSBURGH | Local officials are optimistic about Bombardier’s intended sale of its transportation division and the future of the Plattsburgh rail-car manufacturing plant. Montreal-based Bombardier recently announced the impending sale of its global rail division to leading French locomotive manufacturers, Alstom, for $8.2 billion. Signing an early Memorandum of Understanding, company officials expect to finalize the sale in early 2021. With the Plattsburgh plant now

switching hands, both company and local officials have expressed optimism about the plant’s future as a top employer in the region. “The resulting combination of these two companies has the promise of creating a new whole which is even stronger than the sum of the parts,” Garry Douglas, North Country Chamber of Commerce president, said following the announcement. “In North America and elsewhere, there has been a need for consolidation to create a larger and stronger competitor in the marketplace to face the growing presence of newer players from China and elsewhere. This combination should be able to compete even more effectively for more contracts in the future, keeping the already very busy operation in Plattsburgh even busier in the years to come.” See BOMBARDIER » pg. 6

Replica of D.C. memorial to travel to Northern Tier in August; community’s help needed By Andrea VanValkenburg STAFF WRITER

CHAMPLAIN | After months of planning, a mobile Vietnam Veterans memorial is making its way to the Northern Tier this summer. The rolling replica of the Washington, D.C., Vietnam Veterans Memorial will make its first trip to northern New

York in August when it comes to the Great Chazy River Memorial Post 1418. “We did a lot of work to get it here,” Post 1418 Quartermaster, Anthony King, said of The Wall that Heals, a 375-foot Vietnam War education center, featuring the names of more than 58,000 fallen soldiers. The memorial was unveiled on Veterans Day 1996 and has made it to nearly 600 communities across the nation since then. The Champlain memorial post was selected as one of just 35 communities slated for the 2020 traveling tour out of the nearly 400 applications submitted for this year’s stops. “I’m super excited to see it come in and I think it’s a great opportunity for the community,” said King, who missed a chance to see The Wall That Heals in 2015 in his native California and is looking forward to the local opportunity. The exhibit allows visitors to do name rubbings on its synthetic granite panels and features photos of hometown heroes, a map of Vietnam, an In Memory Honor Roll for those who died of Vietnam-related illnesses following the war, a display of memorial items left at the memorial and a digital kiosk and a Gold Star Harley-Davidson that pays tribute to mothers who lost sons in the conflict. Organizers are planning a widespread community celebration of its arrival, and are mapping out a parade route from Plattsburgh to Champlain to welcome the memorial. See MOBILE MEMORIAL » pg. 8

ELIZABETHTOWN | Incidence of flu this season is widespread throughout New York, including Essex County. Susan Lopez Allott, R.N., M.S., is director of the Essex County Public Health Preventive Services. Allott said every county in New York State has greater than or equal to 10 cases per 100,000 population. “We get reports of flu on a daily basis,” Allott told the Sun. “The number of flu cases is very high. What is different this flu season is the proportion of Influenza B to Influenza A. We had Influenza B occur earlier in the season.” Allott provided the most recent data gathered by state Department of Health officials. It shows that influenza activity level was categorized as geographically “widespread” for the 11th consecutive week, a condition much the same throughout the U.S., except for “moderate” flu cases in Nevada and Oregon; “low” in the District of Columbia, Alaska and Florida; and minimal in Idaho. In Essex County, of 12 cases of flu reported last week, eight are Influenza B and four are Influenza A. In Clinton County, of 66 cases of flu reported last week, 51 are Influenza B and 15 are Influenza A. See FLU » pg. 5

Plattsburgh ranked high by MSN Money Magazine From News Reports CIT Y OF PL ATTSBURGH

PLATTSBURGH | On the heels of being named the 25th Best Micropolitan City in the nation for economic opportunity and activity, the city was also named the no. 23 “best lake city” by MSN Money Magazine. According to MSN, “Right on the western shore of Lake Champlain, Plattsburgh’s access to the Adirondacks make it an ideal location for outdoors lovers. The city is popular among young professionals, and SUNY Plattsburgh lies within its borders, offering top-notch education locally. Of the many town events, the Mayor’s Cup Festival & Regatta attracts thousands to the region for July 4 weekend.” The city of Plattsburgh was rated high in affordability, weather, health and education and our economy. It was also rated number five in safety, and number 11 in quality of life among lake cities

across the country. Mayor Read praised the recent high ranking. “This comes as no surprise for those who live, work or play in our city,” he said. “I can’t wait to see how our ranking will improve once we complete our plans to revitalize our downtown, make more accessible and vibrant our Harborside, and perhaps even construct a boardwalk from our marina at Wilcox Dock all the way to one of the best freshwater beaches in the country. We’re just getting warmed up.” Just one notch ahead of Plattsburgh, at position 22, is Burlington, Vermont, across the lake. Plattsburgh found itself more affordable and safer, with a similar rank for our economy and quality of life as our Lake Champlain cousin. Other cities in the top 25 include Loveland, Colorado, Lake Tahoe, California, Branson, Missouri, Redmond, Washington and, in the top place, Traverse City, Michigan. ■

So far, six candidates have announced their intentions for the city’s top seat as Plattsburgh business owners Nadim Dergham and Chris Rosenquest recently joined the race. Dergham joins retired Plattsburgh City Police Department lieutenant Scott Beebie as the early Republican candidates, while Rosenquest will vie for a Democratic spot, along with incumbent Mayor Colin Read, Tenzin Dorjee and Miles Davis. Earlier this month, Beebie announced his candidacy with an official endorsement by the Plattsburgh City Republican Committee. Plattsburgh City Democrats have yet to make an official endorsement. In order to be on the June 23 ballot, candidates need to get signatures from at least 5 percent of registered city voters within their party lines.

Candidates can seek signatures starting Feb. 25 and must file them between March 30 and April 2. Dergham, a local small business owner since 1981, entered the race quietly, hoping to gain momentum with grassroots support before spearheading a larger campaign effort. He told supporters his experiences as an established small business owner can help him better lead the city fiscally and be more embracing of “change”. Rosenquest co-owns a small coffee shop in the city and serves as the current Area 9 legislator for Clinton County, representing the City of Plattsburgh district. Prior to winning the county position in 2016, Rosenquest vied for the mayor seat in 2013, but was defeated by Republican James “Jim” Calnon. He said his tax and

economic-development initiatives on the county level will help him lead the city to success. “In terms of government experience, building community cohesion, business acumen and a vast network of local, regional and state contacts, I have the background, resources and connections it will take to lead this city to a new future,” Rosenquest said in a news release announcing his candidacy. “The most pressing need for those who live, work, or play in our city is the need for open lines of communication and transparency. Among the myriad of concerns facing the city, my work will focus on maintaining our positive economic momentum, healing the divisions in our community, and ensuring our citizen’s voices are integral in governmental decision-making.” ■

Counties to Legislature: “Keep the Cap” County officials convene for advocacy day at the Capitol From News Reports N YSAC

Preview of “Women in Manufacturing” course offered From News Reports CV-TEC

PLATTSBURGH | Last week, CV-TEC and Protech hosted a morning informational breakfast meeting for business and industry partners and sponsoring agencies seeking information on a new CV-TEC/ Protech Solutions initiative designed for women seeking to enter the industrial sector of employment. T he 1 2 8 -hou r “ Wome n i n Manufacturing” course is designed to provide women with the necessary training and skills to obtain high paying manufacturing jobs and with the opportunity for advancement. V i c e President of Economic

Development at the North C o u n t r y Chamber of Com merce Su sa n Matton and NamTrans Director Joel Wood presented regional employment data underscoring the importance of helping women to enter our manufacturing labor force. Holly Black, of Talent Acquisition Lead with Protech Solutions, said that during her childhood, members of her family were employed in the manufacturing sector; she experienced first-hand the excitement of witnessing production lines actively engaged in the manufacture of new and innovative products. Principal James McCartney and Adult Literacy Teacher Alexis DiRolf outlined the curriculum slated to be offered to participants in the “Women in Manufacturing” course, including subsets titled, “Precision Measurement”, “Blueprint Reading”, “Hand

& Power Tools”, Electrical & Crimping”, “Soldering”, Workplace Safety” (including OSHA 10), “National Work Readiness”, and “Computer Literacy”. The course will end with a final skillsbased project and an employment seminar during which time completers are given the opportunity to interview with prospect i v e

employers. Graduates will be presented with two certifications and a certificate of completion. The breakfast meeting was attended by representatives from Bombardier Transportation, Wabtec/Vapor Stone Rail Systems, IEC Holden, Spencer ARL and Generalist. Also in attendance were representatives from ACESS-VR, OneWorkSource, WDI and the Department of Labor. ■

ALBANY | Representatives from New York’s county governments held an advocacy day at the New York Capitol to voice concerns over changes to the Medicaid program contained in the Executive Budget and to advocate for the maintenance of current local Medicaid caps. “As we have always done, counties stand united behind managing the cost of Medicaid and improving the quality of care for those in need,” said New York State Association of Counties (NYSAC) President John F. Marren, the Ontario County Chair. “However, any state Medicaid proposal must protect local taxpayers by keeping the current cost control caps in place.” New York is one of the few states in the nation to require county funds to cover the cost of Med ica id, and

the only one t hat requ i red county taxpayers to fund a full half of the State’s share when it was implemented in 1966. Today, counties and New York City fund $7.6 billion of the state’s more than $70 billion Medicaid program. In 2012, to help counties and local governments adhere to the 2% propert y tax cap, Governor Cuomo and State Lawmakers enacted a zero growth Medicaid cap. The cap helped counties

stabilize and, in several cases, reduce county property tax rate levies. “Counties will work with state leaders and with the Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT) to address what is under local control, but we cannot absorb additional costs without jeopardizing vital services that our residents depend on,” said NYSAC Executive Director Stephen J. Acquario. Counties are represented on the MRT by Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone, who also sits on the NYSAC Board of Directors. The Executive Budget proposal includes three separate initiatives that would impact the Medicaid local share counties pay in support of the state Medicaid program: 1. Capping eFMAP Federal Fiscal Benefits to Counties Under this proposal, the Budget proposes to cap the amount of federal savings that have been accruing to counties and New York City from the Affordable Care Act, funneling any savings to the state. This provision is effective April 1, 2020, but no fiscal impact amount is provided in the budget for this proposal. 2. Require Counties and New York City to Adhere to the 2 Percent Property Tax Cap or Lose the Benefits of the State Funded Local Medicaid Growth Cap If a county fails to stay under the property tax cap, or if New York City’s property tax levy grows more than the county property tax cap allows, then they would lose all of the savings from the local Medicaid cap in that year. This provision is effective April 1 this year. 3. Adhere to a Local Share Medicaid C o s t s Increase of No More than 3 %.

If a count y ’ s l o c a l s h a r e and associated savings exceeds three percent in any given year, county taxpayers must refund to the state any excess benefit over three percent. This provision is effective April 1, 2021. “The Medicaid cap has been crucial in helping counties stay under the property tax cap and save local taxpayers money,” said Albany County Executive Dan McCoy, who also serves as president of the New York State County Executives’ Association. “While we welcome the opportunity to work with the MRT to lower Medicaid costs overall, we maintain that property taxpayers should not shoulder the burden of Medicaid cost increases that counties are not empowered to restrain. We can’t cap what we can’t control, and our taxpayers should not be penalized for that.” ■

Grant to boost collections at Champlain History Center CHAMPLAIN | A recent $3,500 grant will help further the preservation of photo collections at the Samuel de Champlain History Center. The center, founded by director Celine Racine Paquette for the 2009 Champlain Quadricentennial, hosts a vast collection of photographs documenting life in the Champlain area since the late 19th century. Officials say those photographs will now be further cataloged, digitized and preserved thanks to the recent grant funding from the Champlain Valley National Heritage Partnership.

The history center is housed in the historic former First National Bank of Champlain building on Elm Street and seeks to preserve local history while promoting awareness of French migration and settlement in the Northern Tier. ■

Statewide bag ban begins March 1 ALBANY | The variously anticipated ban on single-use plastic bags is on time to take effect March 1. Officially known as the New York State Plastic Bag Waste Reduction Act, the law’s final adjustments and regulations will be published in the State Register on Feb. 26 following a 60-day period of public commentary and hearing. Though deemed by some as an inconvenience to shoppers and retailers, the larger picture is to reduce litter, cut greenhouse gas emissions and protect the environment for future generations. The Department of Environmental Conservation has plans in place to continue their outreach and education efforts to ensure a smooth transition. For full details, visit dec.ny.gov/chemical/50034.html, email plasticbags@dec.ny.gov, or call 518-402-8706. ■

Winterfest success despite frigid temps

Despite near zero - deg ree weather, American Legion Post 1619’s three-day Winter fest 2020 recently drew large crowds for f ireworks, bonf ires and day-long schedules of events. Saturday’s events featured afternoon curling competitions with children’s races, sledding and an obstacle course. The event had been rescheduled from late January due to warmer temperatures slowing ice formation on the legion’s pond. Photo provided

From FLU » pg. 1

The latest influenza surveillance report showed 17,233 laboratory-confirmed flu cases reported to the State Department of Health (DOH), the second highest weekly total since the 1998-1999 flu season. There have been a total of 106,824 lab-confirmed cases reported in New York State this season, with three flurelated pediatric deaths. And 1,993 patients across New York were hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed influenza last week, a 1% increase from the week prior. Allott said prevention is key to keeping flu at bay. And prevention involves several important, though relatively straight forward, steps: Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Stay home when you are sick. Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces. And don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth, because that is how the virus spreads. In addition, Allott said, people age 65 and over should get the pneumonia vaccine. Incubation influenza exposure is two days, but can range from one to four days, Allott said of contagion before symptoms present. Flu season occurs primarily from October through May. “We’re not seeing that we’ve reached the peak yet,” she said. Information about influenza symptoms and prevention is

New York Independence Party endorses Stefanik for reelection

High-profile support for Stec’s State Senate campaign GLENS FALLS | Assemblyman Dan Stec (R,C,I-Queensbury) today received another major endorsement in his campaign for State Senate. He is now officially backed by the New York State Independence Party. Stec, who has served in the Assembly, has built a strong reputation for being a hard worker that is willing to make tough decisions on the issues that impact all New Yorkers. It’s for this reason that the Independence Party felt he is the best choice to follow retiring Senator Betty Little. “ I w ant to thank the Independence Party for endorsing my State Senate campaign,” Stec said. “I always try to be an independent voice for the people I represent and I’ll work with whoever I need to in order to make sure my constituents receive the support they need and deserve. As our next State Senator, I will continue these efforts and I look forward to working with the Independence

reelection victory in November.” “I’m proud to be ranked consistently in the top 10% of bipartisan lawmakers,” said Congresswoman Stefanik. “Every single one of my votes is guided by what is best for my constituents in the North Country. I work with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to deliver results to bolster our economy, grow our infrastructure and rural development, support our military and veterans, and increase access to health care. It is a true honor to once again receive the Independence Party’s endorsement, and I will continue to be the hardest working candidate in this race to earn every vote.”. ■

WASHINGTON, D.C. | Today, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik announced the beginning of the 2020 Congressional Art Competition. Each spring, the House of Representatives sponsors a nation-wide high school arts competition as an opportunity to recognize and encourage the artistic talent in New York’s 21st Congressional District. The Congressional Art Competition is open to all high school students in the 21st District. The winning artwork will be displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol. The exhibit in Washington will include the winning artwork from all participating districts around the country, and this artwork will also be featured on House.gov’s Congressional Art Competition page. Additionally, the

winner will receive airfare for two to attend the formal Congressional Art Competition ceremony in June. “Each year, it is a privilege to select artwork created by a talented young person from the North Country to be honored in the U.S. Capitol,” said Congresswoman Stefanik. “I encourage all interested students in my district to submit their original work by Friday, April 17th to any one of my district offices in Glens Falls, Plattsburgh, or Watertown. As co-chair of the Congressional Arts Caucus, I look forward to highlighting our creative students and their artwork.” A list of rules and the submission form can be found at https://stefanik.house.gov/ services/art-competition. ■

From the Office of U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik

GLENS FALLS | Today, the New York Independence Party announced their endorsement for Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s reelection to her fourth term in office. “The Independence Party is proud to endorse Congresswoman Elise Stefanik for reelection in November,” said Frank MacKay, Chairman of the Independence Party of New York. “Elise has been committed to getting bipartisan results for her constituents since day one in office.

The Russians are coming. Guess what? The Russians never left and will most likely never will. For years America controlled the airwaves of the Soviet block with Radio Free Europe and the Island of Cuba with Radio Free Cuba. The United States broadcast news and information during the Cold War to counter Soviet and communist propaganda. Despite being banned across the communist block, where regimes regularly jammed the signal, people still managed to listen in secret to broadcasts that inspired them to oppose the totalitarian rule. Now the tables have turned on the land of the free, and somehow, we are supposed to be shocked to hear that this is taking place right under our very noses? How dare they invade our democracy and attempt to sway our elections. Are we really that unaware and so simple-minded that we couldn’t see this coming? After slapping Vladamir on the wrist is 2016, surely he and his diabolical friends should know better than to try this again. Electronic devices are everywhere today in our highly connected society and even if the cameras, listening devices, doorbells, TVs, computers and cells phone didn’t share our information on their own, we make it easy for the spies by putting everything we do out on social media ourselves as a new form of news. “Here’s where I’m going, here’s where I’ve been, here’s what I believe, here’s what I think and don’t like”… We put it all out there for the whole world to know what we collectively find appealing. Yet, now we can’t quite understand how those who don’t agree with our way of life would use all those things against us to sway our opinions? The terrorists figured this out long ago, but we are apparently a little slow and outraged to catch on to how this can be happening in our midst. It seems clear all our enemies have always and will always use whatever means to inflict their will on our country. As a nation, have we become so naive or self-consumed that we’ve forgotten this is still a very dangerous world? Unfortunately, we must always be must be on guard and capable of recognizing truth from fiction, regardless of the source while still going about our daily lives. There will likely always be challenges from both friend and foe but as a nation of freedom-loving people, we must stand united; in defense against tyranny and evil, while never allowing them to silence our liberty, justice and sense of fair play. ■

ESSEX COUNTY TACKLES HOUSING ISSUE Committee will target affordable housing By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | With affordable housing becoming increasingly scarce, Essex County is putting together a task force to study county housing inventories and figure out how to get reasonably priced homes into the hands of local, working people. The committee was created by Essex County Supervisors’ Chair Shaun Gillilland, and will be led by Lewis Town Supervisor Jim Monty. It will include representatives of government, nonprofits and organizations that are involved in the affordable housing issue. Monty said the committee’s work could lead to the creation of a housing authority, or some similar agency, that would use untapped pools of grant money to build or rehabilitate homes and sell them to a strata of Essex County residents who are employed, but lack assets or the income it would take to buy a house on the open market. Increasingly, local officials fear, Essex County is becoming a place where only the relatively wealthy can afford to buy a home. “There are people who are gainfully employed, but struggle to find housing,” Monty said. A number of factors have fueled the problem. Economics, demographics, technology and a growing number of

vacationers have skewed the marketplace to the point where buying or renting a house has become problematic for people of low or moderate means, Gillilland said. It’s not necessarily a new problem, he said, but “it’s been exacerbated in some towns around the county because of vacation homes and short term rentals.” Houses that might have been rented out on a monthly basis for $800 can now fetch $300 a night as a short-term rental. As such, short term rentals have fundamentally changed the marketplace. “When I travel I still look to book a hotel, but my adult kids get on their phones and go to Airbnb,” Gillilland said. Because of this new travel paradigm, hundreds of homes around the county that might have once been rented long term to local residents are now out of play for local residents. That’s put a squeeze on the market around vacation destinations such as Lake Placid and Keene Valley, but there is a parallel problem even in parts of Essex County that are off the beaten track, said Monty. Monty said that families that fall under the acronym ALICE (Asset Limited Income Constrained Employees) need help to become players in the housing market. Many of these are single moms, who also struggle with basic bills for food, heat, transportation, daycare and such. Monty said that part of the reason they have a hard time paying basic expenses is because they are burdened by “crazy rents” in Essex County, reflective of limited housing inventory. Monty said he would like to see these people be able to buy a house and begin to build equity. Without help, it appears that younger people are simply

forced out of the county altogether, according to a 2019 community assessment report prepared by Adirondack Community Action Programs. According to a 2017 Census update, Essex County lost 3.6% of its population in seven years. “A continuing trend in our region of young people leaving the area for better jobs,” the ACAP report stated. And those who stayed were slipping further behind. The report stated that “40% of the households in Essex County live below the ALICE Threshold and are unable to meet the daily cost of living.” And housing costs are taking up a disproportionate share of many budgets. Those with service jobs in the trendy villages of Lake Placid and Saranac Lake are having to commute from as far away as Franklin and Clinton counties. According to the ACAP report, more than 80% of young adults are paying above the maximum recommended 30% of their budgets in housing costs. The elderly are hit hard too, with 56% spending more than they can theoretically afford on housing. Compounding the problem, the houses that are available for rent are often old and in need of maintenance or weatherization. That means along with higher housing costs, moderate to low-income homeowners or renters also have to pay disproportionately high heating bills. Gillilland said the committee will look at all these issues and come up with a targeted strategy to address the areas of highest need. Affordable housing benefits residents, but it also benefits businesses as well by expanding the labor pool that’s within reasonable commuting distance. “A common complaint I hear from businesses is that there’s no one to work for them,” Gillilland said. ■

Jones: end double-bunking in medium-security prisons Assemblyman Jones, NYSCOPBA urge lawmakers to end decades-old practice From News Reports PLATTSBURGH | Assemblyman Billy Jones (D-Plattsburgh) recently joined leaders and members of the New York State Correctional Officers & Police Benevolent Association (NYSCOPBA) to urge lawmakers to support A.930, a bill that would end the practice of double-bunking in medium-security state correctional facility dormitories. Current regulations allow for up to 60 inmates to be housed in a medium security dorm, with 10 such inmates living in doublebunked cubicles designed for one inmate. The housing of 60 inmates in a medium dorm was necessitated by the spike in the inmate population during the late ‘80s and early

‘90s. However, since the Rockefeller Drug Law reforms, most of the system’s low-level offenders have been released, resulting in a significant inmate decline. And although the inmate population closely mirrors the number that existed prior to the inmate population explosion of the ‘80s and ‘90s, the state has not adjusted its policies for housing inmates in a medium dorm. The current inmate population numbers unequivocally support a return to the “50-inmate maximum” that existed prior to the inmate population explosion. “As a 20-year correction officer, I’ve worked in dorms that utilize double bunks to house inmates. The prison setting is stressful enough without requiring a single officer to supervise 60 inmates during a shift. The practice of double bunking is irresponsible and outdated. The Department should immediately take steps to address the overcrowding in medium dorms by removing double bunks and limiting the number of inmates in those dorms to a maximum of 50. This must be done before the state ever considers closing any more facilities. Our corrections staff

has a very difficult job as it is, and overcrowding these dormitories makes it even more difficult,” said Assemblyman Billy Jones. Assemblyman Jones and NYSCOPBA President Michael B. Powers also highlighted a recent report released by the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS) on violence within state correction facilities. The 2019 report found that the incidents of inmate-on-inmate (1265) and inmate-on-staff (1033) assaults were the highest ever reported. “Our members are facing ever-increasing violence in our facilities and it is happening needlessly. In 2019, instances of violence and contraband were at the highest levels ever recorded. If the trends continue, 2020 is shaping up to be even worse. Double bunking inmates in a space built for one person is not the answer to reversing these trends. The inmate population has decreased to a level where the use of double bunks is no longer warranted. The space is available to spread the inmate population out and provide a safer environment for staff and inmates, alike.

Rather than close prisons and force inmates into less space, the state should take the initiative and remove the double bunks and right-size the system that way,” said Michael B. Powers, President of NYSCOPBA Powers also questioned the rationale of those who repeatedly raise concerns about the treatment of incarcerated individuals, yet take no steps to ensure that those individuals are housed in a humane setting — a living quarters designed for one person and not two. “It is time for our elected officials to take action and take down the double bunks which needlessly requires two inmates to occupy a space designed for one person. The continued practice of double-bunking puts our members and the inmates in harm’s way. We must take them down. I want to thank Assemblyman Jones for his leadership on this issue. He has worn the uniform. He knows what it takes,” Powers said. Assemblyman Jones’ bill (A.930) is currently committed to the Assembly Corrections Committee and has several co-sponsors on both sides of the aisle, and in both Houses. ■

NCCC APPROVED FOR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM Education opportunities for military spouses From Staff Reports SARANAC LAKE | Spouses of active duty service members can receive scholarships to attend North Country Community College. Funding comes through the special scholarship in the Department of Defense program called My Career Advancement Account (MyCAA).

NCCC spokesman Chris Knight said NCCC received approval as a provider for the program, which offers up to $4,000 in tuition assistance to eligible military spouses. “The scholarship assists military spouses in pursuing licenses, certificates, certifications or associate degrees necessary to gain employment in high-demand, high-growth portable career fields and occupations,” he said in a news release. At NCCC, military spouses can use the scholarship to pursue an associate’s degree or certificate in more than 20 fields, including Practical Nursing, Radiology, Massage Therapy, Business, Wilderness Recreation,

Human Services and Environmental Science. “Military spouses often have to sacrifice getting an education so they can support their family when their husband or wife is on or called to active duty,” Amy Tuthill, NCCC Associate Director for Recruitment of Adult Learners and VA School Certifying Official, said. “The MyCAA program provides an opportunity for spouses to get an education that they can use no matter where they are stationed. It’s a great resource for military spouses trying to begin a career or retrain for a more portable one.” MyCAA Scholarships are open to spouses of

“We’ll have an escort with local emergency services, riders, motorcycle escorts and the individual route will be officially posted in July so we can line the roads with flags. It’s going to be an amazing ride,” King said. “It will officially open midnight on Aug. 13, and it will be open 24/7 until Sunday Aug. 16 with the closing ceremony at 2:30 (p.m.).” It costs $10,000 to bring the mobile memorial to the region and organizers are setting up a series of fundraising efforts to help offset the cost. “We have a GoFundMe page and have donations letters going out, as well as sponsorships,” said King, adding that residents and businesses can also sponsor memory wreaths to be displayed at the memorial. “And we’re going to have a series of concerts at the VFW Post and any funds made will go towards The Wall that Heals.” Organizers will also need 120 staff volunteers to work fourhour shifts to keep the memorial manned during its local stay and 30 able-bodied volunteers for working parties for setup and takedown. Those interested can sign up on the on the Facebook group North Country-The Wall that Heals Volunteers. For King, a Rouses Point father and Marine, the memorial is an opportunity to honor those lost and the families they left behind. “As a veteran myself, my heart goes out to all the names on the wall, and I cherish the opportunity to preserve and honor their memory.” ■

Weight loss: try, try and try again

animal looking for the next meal. I have purchased ice cream, served my family about half of it and then proceeded to finish off the rest of it while everyone was sleeping. The next day I would go buy the identical brand and flavor, eat it down to the level of the previous day so no one would have a clue. I was advised by a friend also struggling with weight issues that she would throw food items in the garbage to avoid consuming them. I tried that…..however, until I learned to cover the ;discarded item(s) with dish soap I was not beneath retrieving them. When my last child left home I, of course, experienced the sadness of the “empty nest” syndrome. Not only was I missing my children but another issue arose. I was no longer able to convince my husband that the cookie, piece of cake, etc. that he was counting on for a snack had been consumed by one of our girls. If confessions are, indeed, good for the soul, here is one more. I would never text while driving but I did eat a pint of icecream with a pen cap while motoring on the “Cadyville Expressway” some years ago. I shared this information at a Weight Watchers meeting once and, not surprising, found that not everyone does this. I don’t weigh myself very often for very good reason…..the last time I stood on my bathroom scales, I got the following message: “One at a time, please!” So, it is again time to put my best food forward (and my fork down) and I have started attending weight loss meetings again. A recent group discussion about compulsive eating included one of the members recalling the story of a woman at a meeting some years ago who had eaten a pint of ice cream while driving. I had no idea I was famous! ■

The Depot Theatre will grow from three shows to four on the main stage in its 2020 season. Photo provided

Depot Theatre unveils 2020 season Shows focus on heroes, storytelling and music By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

WESTPORT | As the great AfricanAmerican vocalist Billie Holiday lay dying of liver and heart disease in a New York hospital in 1959, police burst into her room, charged her with drug possession and handcuffed her to her bed. For security, a cop was posted at the door of the room she would never leave. Within a month she was dead at age 44. It was the final indignity in a life of discrimination and abuse, which likely had a significant contribution to her struggles with drugs and alcohol. There are notes of Jackie Robinson in the life of Billie Holiday, as she broke down color barriers, but not without consequence. Today, said Kenney Green, Producing Artistic Director for the Depot Theatre, her music is remembered, but not her confrontations with white America in the mid 20th century. “There are a lot of things people don’t know about her trials and tribulations,” Green said. Heroism, Greene said, is a theme of the Depot Theatre’s 2020 season, subscriptions for which are now on sale. Holiday’s story is told in the musical “Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill,” one of four main-stage productions in a season that runs from June 19 to Aug. 27. The season, which expands from three to four shows this year, opens with “Working: A Musical” that celebrates the everyday heroes who keep the nation’s wheels turning by doing their daily jobs. Adopted from a book by Pulitzer Prize winner Studs Terkel, “Working” is derived from interviews with people from across the country, representing a cross section of vocations. Next up is “The Mountaintop,” a fictional interpretation of Martin Luther King in Room 306 of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis on the eve of his assassination in 1968. The

name is a reference to King’s “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech, which he has just delivered prior to returning to his motel room, where the play opens. King is depicted more as an everyday hero than an icon, an average American with strengths and weaknesses who stepped to the fore when destiny called. After these thought-provoking pieces, “It’s time to go to the circus,” Green said. “Barnum: The Musical” is the story of showman P.T. Barnum, who built a fortune on the notion that “There’s a sucker born every minute.” ‘Barnum’ is a high energy tale, set during the period 1835 through 1880, follows Barnum around the world as he evolved from a simple sideshow man, joined the circus, and eventually helped to curate The Greatest Show on Earth. “Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill,” which tells Billie Holiday’s story as she reflects back on her life, ends the summer season. Green said the season is also a nod to history, but believes the audiences will see threads of the modern world in what has gone before. “It sounds like a cliche, but everything that was old is new again,” he said. Overall, “This lineup adheres to our vision statement that promises to promote diversity in all that we do,” Green said. “These productions represent a range of experiences that will resonate with our audiences; from thought-provoking storytelling that illustrates how some decades-old struggles are still relevant today, to pure entertainment.” The Depot, which shares a location with the Westport Amtrak station, is the Adirondacks only equity theater. “It’s accessible, and the audience gets a Broadway level experience in the Adirondacks, in a rustic setting and without Broadway prices,” said Kim Rielly, the theater’s executive director. The season will be dedicated to longtime theater board member Shirley Bacot Shamel, who died in January at the age of 83. “Her larger-than-life presence and radiant smile will truly be missed,” the trustees wrote in the dedication.

Fifty-five years ago I overheard a woman make the following statement at my wedding reception: “She’s a big girl, isn’t she?” At the time I weighed around 140 pounds which is not horrific for a 5’4” individual. However, apparently at that time I accepted this status as a challenge. Over the years I apparently carried my weight too well. I gradually increased by stature over time, hearing repeatedly, “you don’t look like you weigh xxx pounds”. Over time that comment fell by the wayside. As I think back to how long I have struggled with weight control, many memories come to mind and I am in awe of all of the crazy methods that many of us will utilize to try to have the “perfect” body. The first time I joined a weight loss program, there was a preschool child care benefit for attendees at the meetings. My first born played with the children of other weight watchers. She is now 54 years old. I joined a pricey, fad weight loss program some years and and, when asked by friends how well I did on the program, I had to honestly respond that I successfully lost………$500. I have no idea how many times I have enrolled in a weight loss program with minimal success but I am confident that I have lost (and regained) hundreds of pounds…..along with the loss of equal or more hundreds of dollars. Over the years I have done some insane stuff with food (primarily ice cream) and suspect that I am not the only one who frequently feels like a wild

I see Delaney as a future leader and motivator for the team and I am looking forward to coaching her to a successful and memorable collegiate career.” Hughes was able to achieve a level 10 ranking while at GMTC, the highest gymnastics level an athlete can achieve in the USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic program, training four times a week in Vermont, a 90-minute commute each way from her home. “We have been honored to have Delaney as a member of our competitive team over the past five years,” said GMTC coach Ashley Bachand. “Not only is she an incredibly talented athlete but her passion, commitment, and work ethic make her an incredible role model to the younger athletes in the gym. It has been so exciting to watch her grow in and outside of the sport, and even more thrilling to see that her endless amounts of hard work have helped her reach her ultimate goal of competing at the college level.” ■ Delaney Brown of Peru, who has been competing in gymnastics for the Green Mountain Training Center since 2015, has signed to compete for Cortland University in the fall.

For Willsboro, Stephen Leibeck scored six points, with Nick Reithel adding five, Jared Ball five, Regan Arnold three, Justin Joslyn three, Everett Cassavaugh two and Jaycob Gough two.

SPORTS EDITOR

WILLSBORO | AuSable Valley boys varsity basketball coach Jamie Douglass picked up his 200th career coaching win Tuesday night, as the Patriots scored a 62-26 win over Willsboro in non-league action. “It is an awesome milestone,” said Patriots senior Luis Perez, who scored 21 points in the win. “Coach deserves it. He works so hard with us and spends so much time with us. I am happy for coach and I am glad I could be part of the team that got it for him.” “That’s my man,” said senior Carter Matzel. “He has done so much for us.” “He is the best coach I could have asked for,” added senior Evan Snow.

FOCUS ON THE POSTSEASON

For Douglass, the 200th career win was something he hoped could be a springboard for a team already on a nine game win streak. “It means I want our team to win seven more this year, finish strong and get back to Glens Falls,” said Douglass. “We have a tough row to hoe right now. I never want to overlook anyone in our division because on any given night, any team can beat you if you do not get out there and defend.” Douglas started his coaching career 25 years ago as a Modified A coach at AuSable Valley, taking one year off for his career while working his way up the ranks to the varsity coaching job, which he has held for the last 16 seasons. For the game, Douglass said he was happy with the team, and for his seniors who have been part of a 14-5 season so far.

LOOKING AHEAD

“I knew they wanted to win more for me then they did for themselves,” said Douglass. “For me, Luis, Evan and Carter have never played on a winning high school basketball team and they have been with me for a while, so I am vry happy for them and the success they have had this year.” Douglass also gave credit to his coaching staff. “I have John Konowitz who has been here with us all the time and I have Mike Maloney and Javier Perez along with my JV staff and Andrew Bombard,” he said. “We have stuck together and we all do our little thing.”

past and we just play hard-nosed basketball. We have not always had the tallest guys, the fastest guys or the best shooters, but we have always been able to defend.” Douglass added he feels his players have been able to learn more than just the game through the style of ball they play. “In all of my players, I see the desire to win and the faith they have in their family and community that if we stick together we can work through the hard times and the bad times and succeed in the end. I hope that is something they take with them into the rest of their lives.”

Douglass said the key for his program has always started on the defensive end of the court and his players’ desire to commit to that end. “It’s always been you have got to be able to play good, hard, man-to-man defense,” he said. “We have built our program on that and it has been proven to be successful in the

After an 11-8 opening quarter, the Patriots used their trademark defensive pressure as they outscored Willsboro 19-3 in the second and 21-5 in the third before both teams emptied their benches. “We started off a little slow and were turning the ball over,” said Perez. “Once we got

BUILDING CHARACTER, DEFENSE

GETTING THE WIN

The Patriots will host Seton Catholic Thursday before finding out who their first round opponent will be in the Section VII/ Class C playoffs next week. “We started out 2-4 and we stayed with the motto of ‘all for one and one for all’ and concentrated on our defense,” said Douglass. “I have always said prepare for the best team in your division, and the rest will fall into place.” In this case, the best in the division is also the best in the state, as 19-1 Moriah is ranked number one in the Class C writer’s poll. “We are just trying to put everything we work on and practice towards getting us back to the Field House and winning in the Field House,” said Lopez. “We are on a nine game win streak right now,” added Snow. “We are playing great defense, our offense is clicking and it feels good.” “I think the biggest key is everyone buying into the style of game we want to play,” said Matzel. “It was a tough loss against Moriah but the focus now is to get back to the Field House and get a chance to play them again.” ■
