Democratic primary on tap for Area 4 seat Simon Conroy tosses hat in the ring By Teah Dowling teah@denpubs.com
PLATTSBURGH — The open Clinton Country Legislature seat left vacant by the departure of Colin Read to run for mayor will now be subject to a Democratic primary. Simon Conroy announced his candidacy for the Area 4 seat on Monday. “I want to serve as your county legislator,” Conroy said at a press conference. “I have the vision to lead and the energy to act and I am not afraid of new ideas.” Conroy said his experience operating an organic food co-op and as an event organizer makes him a good fit for the position. “I work hard and I’m passionate about improving the area,”
Conroy said. “I have been an active force in this community and have proven that I can get things done.” Conroy said if elected, he intends to fight for more good jobs, relieve the tax burden and keep young people in Clinton County. The race is to fill the final year of Read’s four-year term, which expires in 2017.
DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY Conroy said decided to run in light of the 3-1 vote by the Clinton County Democratic Committee on June 9 that endorsed George Dyer. “I didn’t force a primary, I challenged it,” Conroy said. “I wanted to give the voters a chance to make a decision, not the party.” Dyer, a former state trooper, said Conroy’s entry will change

MORRISONVILLE — This year’s Clinton County Fair is jammed packed with new activities for people of all ages. From July 19 to 24, guests will be able to enjoy several new bands, events and shows. Teah “I’m really happy with the entertainDowling Writer ment this year,” said Glenn Gillespie, manager of the Clinton County Fair. “It’s going to be a fun week.” The biggest added feature: a second demolition derby. On Wednesday kids, ladies and old timer’s will be able to take part in the first-ever Demo Derbies. The regular demolition derby will take place Sunday as always. Need extra excitement? Several new acts will take the stage this year, including the two headliners Nightrain (Guns N Roses Tribute Band) and bluegrass musician Ricky Skaggs.

little as he runs for the seat, his first attempt at elected office. “I’m a little disappointed that now I have to go through a primary election,” Dyer said. Dyer is the brother of Area 3 Legislator Sam Dyer, who’s supportive of his brother’s first run for office. “He’s a very good listener and he has the time to do this job,” Sam Dyer said. “I think he’s a good fit.” Sam said he intends on staying out of his brother’s race until he assistance is asked for. So far, he hasn’t. “If he does ask, I will help,” Sam Dyer said. “But George is going to win or lose this on his own merit.”
Towns, state still hammering out transfer plan for abandoned cemetery properties By Pete DeMola

This event came about, Gillespie said, after the board witnessed its success in state fairs around the country. The only downfall, he said, is the uncertainty of what time they’ll be born. Hungry for more?
PLATTSBURGH — The temporary receivership over a group of cemetery properties in Plattsburgh and Ellenburg has been extended, delaying takeover by each respective town until mid-fall at the earliest. “We are now in the process of seeing that receivership extended until the latter part of September,” said Plattsburgh Supervisor Michael Cashman, citing the need to work out further details before the ailing Whispering Maples facilities are transferred to municipal ownership. The mausoleum and crematory have been under a stateappointed receivership since February 2015, when the state declared the facilities abandoned following reports of neglect by the former owners, a local nonprofit. Originally scheduled to end on June 5, the receivership has

Uncertainty still lurking in Peru regarding pickleball Officials looking at locations, grant funding and temporary courts before making final decision By Teah Dowling
teah@suncommunitynews.com
PERU — Officials are still looking at all options to bring pickleball to town. The board held a workshop last week to discuss grant options for the courts. But the discussion went sideways as the board continued to debate on a final location. During the past few meetings, the board narrowed it down to three locations: Jenkins Street, Sullivan Park and Lapham Mills Park. Councilman Brandy McDonald brought up the idea of fusing the new ice skating rink in Sullivan Park to new tennis courts. Several towns have the same structure, McDonald said, and have been successful. He said it would cost less than $20,000 to do this. The option of Lapham Mills Park came up since the location already contains other sporting activities. Councilman Donald McBrayer expressed his concern with both parks due to him believing the courts would be better situated in the main hub of Peru so that it can be easily accessed on foot or by bike. Jenkins Street is within the hamlet of Peru. The downfall of this property, however, is that it’s surrounded by sinkholes, Supervisor Peter Glushko said, and what’s underneath the existing tennis courts is unknown. In 2005, it would have cost $48,000 to fix the land. Now, it will cost more than $100,000.
During a meeting earlier this month, McBrayer floated the idea of selling the Jenkins Street property. McBrayer said if the town removes the pavement, adds a fence and possibly puts down seeding, its market value would be $35,000 and those extra funds could be used toward another location for the pickleball courts. The town is currently getting a price on how much it would cost to undergo this task. McBrayer expressed a change of heart during the workshop. “It would be a shame to get rid of the property,” he said. Instead of selling the property, McBrayer came up with an idea to put in a new court since the pavement would be taken out anyway. The issue, McDonald said, is that the town wouldn’t receive those extra funds from selling the property to construct the courts. In the end, it all comes down to money, Glushko said. “I can’t see putting all that money into one project.” Councilman Jim Douglass brought up the possibility of erecting temporary courts to see how big interest is. A temporary court can be made by painting lines and bolting down a net on an existing tennis court. This would cost around $200. No final decision was made during the workshop. Location of the pickleball courts, along with the cost to build them, has been a recurring line item during the board meetings since last month. The plan initially was to replenish the two tennis courts on Jenkins Street and turn them into four pickleball courts using state grant funding administered by the public health department. Initially, Peru requested $30,000. Project
Peru officials are continuing the discussion on the future of pickleball in the town. Location of the pickleball courts, along with the cost to incorporate them, is currently being discussed.
manager Laurie Williams said the request would only equate to one pickleball court. About $10,000 would go toward landscaping, fencing and resurfacing. The remainder would go toward demolishing and reconstruction along with five parking spaces. The city of Plattsburgh, on the other hand, will be converting two tennis courts and one volleyball court into five pickleball courts, costing a little more than $20,000. The towns of Plattsburgh and Saranac will also be participating in year one — erecting a total of 11 pickleball courts in Clinton County. The total grant is $52,500 each year. “We need to stretch our dollars as much as we can,” Williams said. Williams said the town was moved to year two for consideration, allowing them the opportunity to see if any other resources are available to them to put toward the project or come up with a new plan.

That’s exactly what they intend to do. While the town board has been looking at locations, Community Development Coordinator Adele Douglas has been searching for potential grants. During a meeting earlier this month, she mentioned how the Jenkins Street property would make for a better case than Lapham Mills Park and Sullivan Park due to it being surrounded by a dense population and also being underutilized. Douglas, so far, has found several additional grants that could assist with the project. However, they’re all 50/50 grants. Board members also suggested to look into local grants such as the county’s tobacco settlement grant for up to $15,000 and Stewart’s grants for health and wellness. The town intends on having more discussions with officials and community members before making a final decision on the future of pickleball in Peru.

Former Clinton County Airport to be evaluated Study to determine infrastructure improvements for future growth By Teah Dowling
teah@suncommunitynews.com
PLATTSBURGH — County and town officials have big dreams for the former Clinton County Airport. Future development is one of them. “We want to recruit new enterprises to that area,” Plattsburgh Supervisor Michael Cashman said. “We want more development.” In order to grow, an infrastructure evaluation is being conducted to see what services could be provided for potential buyers, such as water, gas, electricity and sewer. Through this study, hookups and lines will be identified. Pedestrian and bicycle access, along with different vehicular access points, is another item that will be looked into. According to the plan from the Friends of the Saranac River Trail, the Saranac River Trail Greenway, a proposed 27-mile long trail from the city of Plattsburgh to the town of Saranac, could go through the former airport along the riverfront. Previous studies and build-out scenarios will be looked into as well. “We want to make sure we’re meeting the standards for optimal development,” Cashman said. “We need to anticipate what their needs will be.” This evaluation is a collaborative effort between The Development Corporation, town of Plattsburgh and Clinton County. “We thought participating in this would be extremely worthwhile,” County Administrator Mike Zurlo said. The former Clinton County Airport, located on Route 3 in the town, served as the airport site from 1967 to 2007 until the county opened the Plattsburgh International Airport on the flight line of the former Plattsburgh Air Force Base. Besides CV-TEC, the area is not developed. CV-TEC takes up 17.5 acres of the 600-acre parcel. The property is broken up into different zoning designa-
tions such as riverfront conservation, technology and business. A small portion is designated residential use. The study began with a kick-off meeting a few weeks ago. For the rest of the summer, the parties will focus on inventory and analysis, along with exploring different options for the area. The town and the county are hopeful the draft study will be completed by September, followed by the final study in October. The total cost of the study is $50,000 and it will be paid for through a NYS Consolidated Funding Application grant through Empire State Development, along with the town, county and TDC. Cashman said the exact cost coming out of each participating party will be dependent on what can be discovered through previous studies. “We see that property as extremely developable,” County Legislator Rodney Brown said. “We can’t wait to see what will become of it.”

t’s Sunday afternoon and once again we are shocked at the senseless death of 49 people and another 53 seriously injured who were going about their lives in Orlando when a lone terrorist, who had pledged his allegiance to ISIS, opened fire. As more facts and details come to light there will be plenty of time for finger pointing and blame, but for now our thoughts and prayers need to be with those who lost their lives, those injured in the attack and their families. Like so many of these events whether it be homegrown terror, deranged individuals, or foreign countries who have declared war on our country these are times when we need to come together and not tear ourselves apart over political differences. We can’t be so divided that we over look our most common of interests, keeping the country and her citizens safe, especially here in our homeland. Our security personnel have an extremely difficult job, made even more difficult by the open society we all enjoy in this country, but all too often take for granted. Early indications are the gunman had been looked at twice in recent years by the FBI for terrorist threats, but lacked sufficient evidence to pursue any charges. Our fair judicial system restricts us from locking up folks who speak of hate toward others yet when the dust settles we will need to seek solutions that help the authorities deal with radical influences that drive individuals to take such heinous actions. There is an estimated 15,000 individuals in the country today that have communicated, in one way or another, with ISIS. In the coming days and weeks this event will be a hot topic in the presidential campaigns and I fear our political climate will disrespect those who lost their lives by using the event to drive an agenda instead of seeking solutions on a more united front. It’s clear that no country is immune from this form of warfare which seeks to kill the helpless non-combatants and terrorize the masses with brutal, unthinkable actions. Military might and powerful weapons are no match for sole gunmen who strike without notice and place no value on their own survival. Internal infighting and fear is their only goal and we must not allow them to gain this advantage by playing into their hands. The country and the world must be united to defeat this plague.

A sports season to remember T
his has been a season to remember for many athletes in the land of Section VII. Coming off the final weekend of the 2015-16 academic sports year, the section brought home its fourth state championship as the quartet of Nathan Handy, Matt Villa, Loudon Frechette and Daryn Nephew took the gold in the Division II NYSPHSAA track and field 4-by-100 relay for the Beekmantown Eagles. Along with their success, Seton Catholic’s prolific distance runner and future University of New Hampshire athlete Margaret Champagne claimed two medals at the championships. With track, the Ticonderoga Lady Sentinel varsity softball team reached the NYSPHSAA Final Four for the first time, falling to Notre Dame of Elmira amidst the rain drops and weather delays in Fort Edward. That’s not all. In the past season, as you will see in the story on our sports pages this week, Section VII has claimed four state championships, has placed three more teams in the championship game and has had five more teams reach the state round of play (semifinals). That is a total of 12 teams who competed admirably at the state level, a huge accomplishment for one of the smallest sections in the state. The credit, first and foremost, goes to the players. They have been able to train, work and sacrifice to get onto the state stage. It is something that is extremely rare and everyone should be proud of their accomplishments. Along with the players are the parents, who get to see their child’s excitement as they realize goals and male memories that will last a lifetime. These are the ones who drove them to and from little league and biddy games when they were young, rearranged work schedules and other tasks to provide rides to preseason practices and to be on the sidelines for their games from modified to junior varsity and then varsity. They travel when their children make the state level and are the first their with either a huge of congratulations of consolation. We also have the coaches who dedicate their time to teach the sport and do everything they can to help their teams and players excel. They do it regardless of accolades, and, too often, at scorn of parents who think Tommy didn’t get enough time or those who second guess them. In the end, what they do is
important in the lives of these children, with many life lessons being taught on the field and courts. Then, there are the fans. Several times, we have written about fans and some of the concerns we see on the sideline. This year, those concerns seem to temper, somewhat, to the point where we can say this was one of the better years for fan behavior we have seen in the league. Don’t get us wrong: There is still a long way to go, and a successful season often tempers the sometimes venomous contempt that can come from the stands, but any level of improvement is a step in the right direction. We hope everyone has involved the coverage of Section VII sports this season in the pages of The Sun. We also brought home a championship, of sorts, as the picture of the PHS boys soccer team after winning the Class B semifinal game taken by Jill Lobdell took home a third place award at the national FCPNY convention. With all the success there has been this season, we can’t wait to see what will happen as the calendar makes its way towards the fall sports season. There are already numerous story lines: Can the Chazy boys varsity soccer team reclaim their spot atop Class D, or are we seeing the start of a new dynasty in the Elizabethtown-Lewis Westport Griffins? Will control shift in the annual football rivalry games between Class B’s Beekmantown and Peru along with Class D’s Moriah and Ticonderoga. Can the Sentinels return to state glory? Speaking of Moriah, will they stay atop the Class D mountain without Adam Jaquish and Taylor Slattery, and can returning starters Dylan Trombley and Joe Stahl (who will look to repeat as Section VII golf champion in the spring) lead the Vikings back to the Civic Ce — oops, I mean — to Binghamton? These, and many more questions, will all be answered in 2016-17. We will be watching it all.

GoodspeedÊ wasÊ aÊ strongÊ advocate To the Editor: Recently the clients of the North Country Food Pantry of North Creek lost a strong advocate in the forced retirement of 25-plus year volunteer Evelyn Goodspeed. The reason the directors gave: Evie was negative and disruptive. Let me give you some examples of her negativity and disruptiveness. She objected to the following: 1. She questioned the excessive stockpiling of food that could be used by the clients instead of saving it for a calamity which has never happened. 2. The waste of case after case of perishable foods including the recent waste of three
A

cases of cheese left in the coolers until the “use by” date had expired. Most perishable foods have short expiration dates. The disrespect of some clients by some, but not all, of the volunteers. Some examples include saying that certain clients “stunk,” by calling certain Christian missionaries “beggars looking for a handout,” and screaming across the pantry at certain clients “you’re taking too much soup,” when in actuality they were picking up for two families. This last incident was reported to both regional and local boards of directors by the people affected. While I was a volunteer (four years) there were numerous occasions of full cases of canned goods disappearing. Were those reported to the board?
5.
Here is one last example although there are many more that could be mentioned. Several years ago, at Thanksgiving time, several clients asked for cranberry sauce. They were told “no,” that what was there was for the Christmas boxes. Evie checked in the storeroom and found 13 cases, more than enough for both holidays. She went over the director’s head and got the extra cases released for, as she would say, “Her People.” When asked if she wanted a retirement party, Evie said no, she didn’t want to be rewarded for doing what she thought was right. Now isn’t that just the epitome of negative and disruptive? Thanks Evie, for more than 25 years of caring for “Your People.” Don Goodspeed North Creek
ENDORSEMENT POLICY

The lodge at Boreas Ponds: A historical perspective Kent Gregson> Stonemason from Indian Lake, NY kgregson@ymail.com
I
read your editorial “Lodge at Boreas Ponds Should Stay or be relocated to Serve as Visitor’s Center.” I am the stonemason who built the fireplace. Indeed this “gorgeous facility” would make a great visitors area for the Boreas Ponds. The “L” shaped building goes 75-feet in one direction and around 80-feet in the other. The large space is multi-functional and could serve in many ways. The lodge is seven miles or so from pavement on roads that were built and maintained for heavy truck use by Finch Pruyn, some of the best dirt roads in the Adirondacks. As you say, the lodge is handicap accessible but what about the able bodied visitor? This is a remote area with many recreational opportunities, some more dangerous than others, but none without risk. Emergency access for this area costs time, lots of it. There’s road access to the south and west, but the terrain gets vertical and rough. There are the trails to the high peaks which attract lots of hikers. Increasing public land and access in remote areas will result in more accidents, injuries and evacuation scenarios statistically. The lodge would be a good center of operations and communications in these situations. On the other hand, relocating the building is unfeasable. There are 20 tons of Corinthian Granite (from Champlain Valley Stone) in the fireplace. If someone did manage to replicate it, I suppose I’d be flattered, but at what expense? Far cheaper, easier and probably better looking would be to build new.
The logs are fastened together with foot long cabin spikes and have cured for many years. They’d never go back together as neatly and cleanly again. Better to build new. Relocation misses another point. This building site is magnificent by itself and the building is made for it. A wide flat promontory in spectacular country. The view from the porch is so awe inspiring that I made a bench in the back of the fireplace to see the view from the porch. While I was building, Finch Pruyn C.E.O. Dick Carota came by “whenever he was in the neighborhood,” could be several times a week. It was a favorite project. The crew who built it were Finch Pruyn employees from Newcomb. A good bunch of guys who took pride in their work. On the Santanoni Citizen’s Advisory Committee I saw how my preservationist friends want to remove any trace of man’s presence in the Adirondacks. I can see their point, and I may be wrong, but I don’t see it that way. I know that these concerned people see others coming to the mountains to recreate, litter, pollute and tear up the thin soils and fragile habitats. That’s the reason I call them all friends (besides the ones I know personally), I appreciate their efforts in these matters. I was born in Chestertown on a “tree farm” and raised on venison, rabbit and trout. I have a different perspective on wilderness. To me wilderness is synonymous with home. I don’t separate myself from nature. I feel a part of it. The buildings and facilities at Santanoni were also scheduled for demolition. The discussion was long, some of the buildings were lost, but now some of the buildings are being saved. So, it’s not impossible that this lodge on over 20,000 acres could be repurposed. Not that it will, but it’s possible. Kent Gregson is a stonemason from Indian Lake, NY who built the massive stone fireplace in the main lodge at Boreas Ponds.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
SunÊ needsÊ toÊ getÊ aÊ life To the Editor: The Sun Editorial Board has exposed itself again with the language it chose regarding Donald Trump (ie: “by way of insults.”) Get a life! Trump did not send the 16 candidates packing due to insults, but by exposing their positions on the issues effecting the lives of hardworking Americans, immigration ridiculous and possibly criminal application of the federal government’s obligation on this issue and the 16 positions the various Republicans had taken: Sanctuary cities and the use of working Americans tax dollars to support them! Right to bear and own arms within the USA; Trade, America First, yes, Trump is right on target again! Work, not welfare, for ablebodied men and women. Need I review every one of his policies? I don’t think so! If you like using negative terms in your political editorials, try discussing the realization that Hillary should go to jail, not the White House. Try looking into possible acts of treason by the sitting president against the USA and how and when he should be investigated, tried and sentenced, and is the country strong enough to apply proper justice for treason? Vote Trump. Bert Windle Putnam Station
OregonÊ trainÊ derailmentÊ aÊ reminderÊ of Ê oilÊ tankerÊ risks To the Editor: The recent oil train derailment in Mosier, OR, should be an additional wake-up call for folks in the Champlain Valley who also host the movement of crude by rail through their communities. Some of the parallels with our area are especially striking - passage through small towns, the likelihood that an accident would overwhelm the capabilities of local emergency personnel and, of course, the proximity to a scenic wonder (our Lake Champlain, the Columbia River Gorge in the Oregon case). Mosier “dodged the bullet,” and was not obliterated by a fire storm like Lac-Mégantic, but this was a matter of sheer luck. If one thinks that such accidents can be prevented through improved preparedness, see the remarks from the Union Pacific spokesperson at youtube.com/ watch?v=DwreSO4UHIU#incart_maj-story-1. She calls attention to recent track inspections using the latest technologies, and to the fact that the tank cars were upgraded models meeting a higher “1232” safety standard. Still, the untoward occurred. The risks associated with the movement of crude by rail clearly warrant much higher priority from federal, state, and local authorities, all of whom have responsibilities in this matter. Richard P. Suttmeier Keene Valley
WhoÊ areÊ youÊ supposedÊ toÊ represent,Ê SenatorÊ Gillibrand? To the Editor: Oil trains have been a hot topic now for several years. I live on Willsboro Bay and hear and see them go by all the time. Why is this oil going by rail? Because there are not enough pipe lines to transport it, pretty simple, every gallon going through a pipe line is a gallon not going by rail. Now I can understand a senator from a state where the pipe line runs through voting against it, but my senator who should know the hazards that the trains pose to Lake Champlain and the Hudson River voted against it! Senator Gillibrand, I thought you represented us, not President Obama! Bradley Paye Willsboro
WildernessÊ preservationÊ needÊ notÊ equateÊ toÊ populationÊ extinction To the Editor: The article in your June 11 issue, “Review board skeptical over study,” once again highlights a fundamental cleavage in the North County between the environment and the economy. Enormous amounts of money have been raised from wealthy donors to protect the wilderness, while, to the best of my knowledge, much, much less has been raised, let alone spent, to create economic opportunity for area residents. I am not a tree hugger, nor a tree mugger, but having been a summer resident here for over 35 years, I have watched the slow decline of opportunity and the aging of a year-round population. For the author of the study to suggest that rising property values are synonymous with economic advancement is simply untrue, and perhaps cruel for long-time residents who can no longer afford to live here. Wilderness preservation need not take place at the expense of population extinction. Jeff Moredock Essex
SpecialÊ OlympicÊ TorchÊ RunÊ successful To the Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to everyone who made the NYS Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics NY such a success this year. Last year, we suggested running through our town instead of traveling to another town in Essex County to show our support. This turned out to be successful, so we decided to make this our tradition. Nothing gives me more pleasure then to see smiles on beautiful faces. With that being said, there is no job too big or tasking for that result. The honor running next to two local athletes, Dakotah and Todd, not only brings this smile to my face but also my heart. You will never be able to buy the happiness that I saw on Wednesday, May 25, in the Town of Moriah and I am proud to be a part of this. Moriah Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility staff and Moriah Central School faculty raised over $1,200 to benefit Special Olympics NY. Thank you Superintendent Tynon and Captain Rawson for allowing Moriah Shock staff to participate, for supporting me in my decisions and contributing to the success of this event; Erin McCartan, Associate Director of Development, for including us once again; Superintendent B. Larrow from Moriah Central School for allowing your staff and more importantly your students to participate; Elizabeth Rutkowski from Mountain Lake Services, who welcomes us at the Helen F. McDonald center; Fleury’s Grocery and Deli for refreshments and Deputy Rice from the Essex County Sheriff ’s Department for keeping us safe while we were running. To all the staff at Moriah Shock, civilians and security, who made this year’s run a success. Not everyone who contributed was a runner and this does not go unnoticed. For those of you who came in on your day off, our mess hall staff who provided refreshments and snacks, our one woman camera crew, our drivers, I thank you with my entire heart! Saving the best for last, a BIG thank you to Becky Cutting for allowing your two young men to join us in a portion of our run. Every time we spoke, the anticipation for this day became more exciting. When it finally arrived I was more emotional than my face could show. It gives me great pleasure to represent Moriah Shock ICF in this capacity and to recognize two local athletes. I can’t express how grateful that I am for all the support that we received, smiles that were seen, cheers we heard and tears that were shed. Christina E. Slattery Office Assistant 2
Little Bits Fried bread dough Gordie Little
Columnist
F
ried bread dough. Does the mere thought titillate your taste buds? Mine are bouncing like an NBA dribble. I haven’t had any lately, so I’m long overdue. I wrote this last Sunday as the 50th Cadyville Firemen’s Parade and Field Day was getting underway. It was cool and windy, but warm hearts and enthusiasm prevailed and a great time was had by all. I have no clue if they served fried bread dough, but I’ll wager there was clam chowder. I recall in the olden days it was magically prepared by the late “Jug Head” Devan and by my friend “Goose” Sorrel. Only a few can make it that delicious. On the other hand, fried bread dough is simple to make. However, it always tastes better a firemen’s field day, church bazaar, county fair or carnival. And it has never tasted better than when it is dripping with real North Country maple syrup. Like others of you (some will actually admit it), I spend too much time on my favorite social medium, usually before sunrise every day. It begins with my posting of the temperature and sky conditions outside our Morrisonville house on the Saranac River. Like reading this fine newspaper from cover to cover each week, it puts me in touch with the pulse of the community. It also gives me lots of ideas for this column. Case in point was a recent discussion of fried bread dough. The writer is obviously a person of good taste. They prefer their fried bread dough with maple syrup or dusted with powdered sugar. My mouth is watering. Question of the day was, “What did you call it growing up.” Some listed “dough gods or gobs;” Others remembered “fee fees;” others called them “knots or knoots.” Those of French Canadian extraction remembered variations on the theme. One that also sticks in my mind from north of the border is “beaver tails.” I have seen them referred to as “Johnny Joes” as well. I wish my childhood recollections could add to that list, but, in my house, it was simply “fried bread dough.” Kaye doesn’t remember her mother ever serving it back in the day, but she herself made lots of it for our family. Mostly, it started life as the prepared bread or pizza dough you can buy in almost any grocery store. I scoured the Internet and saw such localized names as “doughboys,” “fry bread,” “flying saucers,” “scones,” ‘elephant ears” and many others. I have eaten something different but similar called “beignets” in New Orleans. Other regions of this country and many other places have their own variations. Besides deepfrying the dough, many kinds of toppings are favored. I’ll stick with real maple syrup or powdered sugar. I have spoken with friends who will top their fried bread dough with nothing but honey. Whatever floats your boat. Pass the syrup, please.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
TaxÊ increase,Ê ailingÊ economyÊ createÊ conditionsÊ ripeÊ forÊ PortÊ HenryÊ dissolution To the Editor: I’m writing in support of the dissolution plan that was presented to the villagers of Port Henry. Having grown up in Port Henry in the 50s and 60s, I know what the village was like then, with thriving businesses filling all of the downtown storefronts and viable employment driven by good jobs in the mill and mines. Since those days, employment here has been difficult. Each year has brought more decline to the village and area. I and several others have worked to open new small businesses to help reverse some of this decline, but it is clear to me that it will take more than these efforts to bring significant change to our area. We now have an opportunity to join forces with the town of Moriah, which will provide tax relief for village taxpayers, and join the services now provided by both the town and village. More importantly, joining forces now will mean the village will realize the benefits that will come with the soon-to-come hydro plant as it is being built and operated in Mineville. The village can not continue to sustain a separate government for what are about 1,200 citizens, as evidenced by the 10 percent tax increase this year for services provided. Joining with the town will result in a still small entity of about 5,000 citizens, which is still a comfortable number for giving everyone access to elected officials. Let’s do this now instead of waiting for an alternative plan to be developed. We need positive change now! Sue McHone Port Henry
WillsboroÊ MemorialÊ DayÊ aÊ success To the Editor: American Legion WM Nolan Post 405 wishes to thank all the participants in this year’s Memorial Day remembrance of those who have gone before us in defense of our nation. Missing from our procession was 60-year-plus Legion Member Kenneth Coonrod, who passed on this April. This year, we were honored by the presence of World War II veterans Bill Thompson and John Carver and Korean warfighter Milton Baker. Our honored vets were driven on parade route to the monuments by Essex County Sheriff ’s Department Humvee. Also in the line to march were Willsboro Girl Scouts and the Plattsburgh Police Pipe and Drums and Scottish flag marchers. These units were led by American Legion Post 405 Honor Guard and Firing Squad, followed by bugler Levi Sayward. Waiting at the monument were many veterans as well as active personnel, many in full dress uniforms, including former resident and Navy veteran Fred Morgan and his family, who were visiting from American Samoa. The emcee for this event was Charles Lustig, Post 405 Chaplain. The Invocation and Benediction was given by Father Francis Flynn. Our guest speakers were retired Navy Captain Robert Mason and Rep. Elise Stefanik. A flyover was provided by two F-16 Fighting Falcons from the Vermont Air National Guard 158th Fighter Wing, Burlington, VT, flown by Major Robert Peel and Captain Dan Wabinga, who brought the sound of freedom into full focus for us all. Pipe and drum numbers, speeches and the raising of the Stars and Stripes were followed by the solemn realization that we, as a nation, will come together in future years to mourn the loss of additional souls and struggle to maintain the freedom and existence of the United States of America — even as we remember those in the long military ranks who came before us. Final words to our fallen were followed by firing squad and the playing of TAPS. Recognition must be given to those whose planning, contacts and perseverance make this yearly event possible: Town Supervisor Shaun Gillilland, Highway Department Supervisor Travis Crowningshield and crew to make the town presentable; Willsboro Fire Police road guards, Willsboro Ambulance Service, Willsboro Beautification Committee, Robin Belzile and Hometown Hero Banners, members of Legion Post 405 and military volunteers who give up a holiday to provide full remembrance services at local cemeteries. Last, but assuredly not least, thank you to those Americans who come from near and far to stand in tribute to those who have passed, honoring friends, comrades, family and complete strangers who have given the “last full measure of devotion” for their nation and it’s people. We hope to see you all next year. Thank you for your attendance. Lloyd Brockney, Commander American Legion Post 405 Willsboro
CanÊ weÊ learnÊ fromÊ theÊ past? To the Editor: Thanks to the educational Voice of America and the BBC we had in Europe during WWII. We learned from them to fight the Nazis without arms, but mainly body language. Just for fun, take the present winner of the presidential debates. His face tells me he’s like Hitler, his hands and body movements are like Mussolini. Both were dictators and suffered a great measure of devoid of moral compassion, a huge amount of narcissism and hate. So may I remind our kind readers, who lost the war and who won? God bless our country and our allies. Suzanne LaRocque North Creek
ECHÊ staff Ê amazingÊ duringÊ recovery To the Editor: As I continue my recovery from joint replacement surgery and return to work, I would like to comment on my experiences during inpatient rehabilitation at the UVM Health Network, Elizabethtown Community Hospital. I did not choose ECH because I am a member of the allied medical staff (I suspect that made me more of a challenge), but on the recommendation of others, including my spouse. From the moment I arrived at the door, after an ill-advised front seat car-ride, I was cared for proactively for dietary items in keeping with my special needs. My medical care was ably coordinated by Mary Halloran, M.D. The hospital pharmacy was available for consultation. The nursing staff - RNs, LPNs and aides
alike - conducted themselves with skill and empathy. My physical therapist, Mark Hummel, saw me seven days weekly and continue to provide outpatient care, ably assisted by Sara Irving, PTA on occasion. Extensive reconstruction of the unit is now complete which should make rehabilitation impatient stays an even more positive experience, although I have no intention of checking that out for myself! I would be remiss if I did not mention my fine primary surgeon, Eugene Byrne, M.D., his colleagues William Smith, M.D. and Andrew Friebel, PA-C, along with the fine staff at Lake Placid Sports Medicine. Thanks to one and all. Jae Lyn Burke Wilmington
SupportÊ theÊ sixthÊ gradeÊ exhibit To the Editor: Did you experience the art show at Westport Central School last month? The exhibits were all special, but what awed me the most was the work of Zoe Brugger’s sixth grade. Elizabeth Lee, an Adirondack guide, Paul Mudie, retired industrial arts teacher, and art teacher Kim Matthews along with the 6th grade captured the beauty of the Adirondacks. The show was spectacular. I understand much of the work will be on display at the Dogwood Bakery, Wadhams this summer. Give yourself a special treat — view the display. Claire Kroeplin Westport
WhereÊ doÊ ourÊ taxÊ dollarsÊ go? To the Editor: So, are your tax dollars spent on matters important to you? Do we actually know where the money goes and why? Jean-Baptiste Colbert, finance minister for Louis XIV of France, said, “the art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest possible amount of feathers with the smallest possible amount of hissing.” Perhaps it’s time to start hissing and Tax Cap the Cuomo. An official from Albany recently addressed the Essex County Board of Supervisors to explain the 2016 NYS budget. One budgeted item is a $100 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative, or DRI. It’s one of Gov. Cuomo’s social engineering gambits toward the re-urbanization of America, otherwise known as smart growth, or sustainability, or complete streets, or active living, or Hamlets 3, or Agenda 21, or the Capital Region Sustainability Plan, or Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (HUD.) I’m not making this up, Google it and connect the dots, especially the HUD thing. The activist planners keep mixing the names, but the objectives are to create social, economic, and environmental change by regulating your property and your lives. They wish to create community centers in which the majority will eventually live and work, be it hamlet or city. Walking and bicycling will be a primary mode of transportation. The new compact and well defined downtown’s will include housing at different levels of affordability and type, rich and poor happy together. They accomplish this thru Comprehensive Planning, plus establishing regional economic development and planning councils who know what’s best for us. The regional councils eliminate your local Home Rule Authority. Andy Cuomo is taking 100 million of your tax dollars to create ten of these utopias where all can live together in a compact diverse community, in compact apartments, near transportation hubs so you won’t be needing cars anymore and the evil rural/suburban housing sprawl will cease. It all just makes me want to go to a hilltop and drink a coke and sing for world peace. Re-urbanization has started in NYC, compliments of mayor Bill DeBlasio. I doubt if Andy and Bill will set the example for us by buying bicycles and moving to the utopian transportation hub. Utopia is intended for the cattle, not the intellectual trail bosses. Interestingly, the unintended consequence of the DRI style experiments in Portland, OR., and Seattle resulted in poor inner-city cattle having to leave because they couldn’t afford utopia. The liberal trail bosses feel bad about it, but the re-urbanization cattle drive continues. Round-em-up, move-em-out. Ken Fenimore Elizabethtown

Happiness-boosters
T
he Dalai Lama, who was born this month in 1935, once said that “happiness is not something readymade.” More than there being some far off happily-ever-after, I have always believed that happiness is a daily journey. It is not something you eventually achieve, but a feeling you aim for every day. Let’s be honest: despite our blessings, it is sometimes difficult to be happy. As one of my old friends used to say, “there is nothing we underrate so much as the duty of happiness.” I think we could all agree that it’s worthwhile. One of the things that helps me on this daily journey is forward motion. Instead of just saying that I will go out and do something, I actually do it. And the days that I do attend that exhibit opening, or that film screening, or that concert – are usually the best ones. As always, there are quite a few happiness-boosters around the region to brighten up your week. Here are a few: On June 19, the 4th annual Glens Falls Pride Festival will return to Crandall Park. Glens Falls Pride is a celebration of diversity and equality, both locally and worldwide. This event celebrates Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered and Queer members of the Glens Falls community. It also aims to support a positive stance against violence and discrimination for those that identify as LGBTQ. Allies are encouraged to participate. This festival will be a family friendly event. Local musician Ryan Clark will play at 2:15 p.m. Assemblywoman Carrie Woener will speak at 3 p.m. A drag show, featuring performers Sabastian, Bee’Uh Bombchelle, Ms. Kitten Kaboodle, Anya Knees, Mallissa Capri, James Bondage and Jaqueline Frost, will take place at 4 p.m. For more information, visit glensfallspride.org. The Clinton Community College Drama Club will present “Phenomenal Woman Phenomenally: A Celebratory Revue” on June 17-18. The show, which will take place in Plattsburgh’s Stafford Theater, aims to celebrate women and women’s history. Proceeds from “Phenomenal Woman” will go toward raising money for ovarian, breast and cervical cancer research. The first show is on June 17 at 7:30 p.m. The final show is on June 18 at 7:30 p.m. General admission tickets are $20 each. VIP tickets are $25.

been extended to Sept. 30. Both mausoleums have incurred significant damage since their construction in the early 1980s. The facility in Ellenburg needs a new roof, while the structure in Plattsburgh requires wall repairs. The deterioration of both has generated public outrage. Connie Goedert, the state-appointed receiver, said a structural engineering report has been completed and the project is scheduled to go out to bid. Once those contracts are awarded, ownership of the buildings will be transferred to the towns, she said. Goedert declined to discuss exact costs, citing a lack of authorization to do so by the state. A report last year pegged repairs at the Ellenburg facility at $99,619.26, and Plattsburgh, $46,849.58. State officials have already secured $300,000 from the state’s executive budget for the first round of repairs. Additional funds may be made available through the department of state, but the application process is expected to take at least a year, said officials at a public meeting in April. According to state law, abandoned cemeteries fall under the jurisdiction of municipalities.

But officials from both Ellenburg and Plattsburgh have expressed a reluctance to take over the properties, calling the handover an unfunded mandate that places the municipalities firmly in uncharted waters, especially under the state-mandated tax cap. Cashman said the state Division of Cemeteries had been “deficient” in ensuring the proper upkeep of the facilities. “Both towns are advocating we take a slow, but steady, approach to this,” Cashman said. The meeting in April drew more than 150 family members whose loved ones are among the 600 interred in the mausoleums. Cashman said he continues to field phone calls from people seeking general info. The conversations have generally been positive, he said. “We have received an immense amount of support from community members and constituents,” he said. Crypts at the free-standing mausoleums ranged in price from $5,930 to $12,030. By the time the state ordered the removal of the board of directors, 78 percent of the spaces in Plattsburgh had been sold; 66 percent in Ellenburg. Proceeds from the sale of each crypt and niche space were supposed to go to a permanent maintenance fund. But a state report revealed not only was that fund insolvent, but the nonprofit also failed to repay loans they were permitted to withdraw from the fund in 1992.

From page 1 and will continue until the July 14 deadline. Both candidates need 100 signatures to be on the primary ballot. Registered Democrats head to the polls on Sept. 13. The winner will face Republican candidate Devi Momot in this November’s general election. Chairman Martin Mannix called the primary “an expensive proposition” because both candidates will need to fund two campaigns. Conroy said he’s already started fundraising. Sara Rowden, a Democrat who served as the Area 4 legislator from 2001 to 2013, was appointed earlier this month to serve as an interim legislator. Rowden has endorsed Conroy. “I think he would make a good county legislator,” she said. “He’s been very involved with the community and he cares about it. “It’s time to turn this over to younger eyes. Us baby boomers need to move on.” Simon Conroy announced his candidacy for the Area 4 seat on Monday. The open Clinton County legislature seat left vacant by the departure of Colin Read will now be subject to a Democratic primary. Photo by Teah Dowling

SectionÊ VII:Ê whereÊ theÊ championsÊ playÊ inÊ 2015-16 By Keith Lobdell
keith@suncommunitynews.com
ELIZABETHTOWN — This may, indeed, be the greatest school year in the history of Section VII high school athletics. The teams who represented the section in regional and state playoffs this season didn’t just show up, but knocked the door down, winning four state championships while another three reached their championship game. In all, 11 teams from Section VII reached at least the final four, including the most recent in the Ticonderoga Sentinel varsity softball squad, who made history as the first girls program in school history to make the state round of play. “This is the first girls team we have ever had to reach this milestone of play,” Superintendent Dr. John McDonald said. “We are really proud of them and I know how hard they have worked for this.” “It’s a good place to be with teams competing late into the season,” Ticonderoga Athletic Director and varsity football assistant coach Robert Sutphen said. “Our kids are getting it done in the classroom and on the athletic field.” The Sentinels also sent their football team to the Class D championship game, where they lost to Tioga in the closest game a Class D team had ever played in the Carrier Dome. Sutphen said when your teams compete this far into the season, there is another team behind the scene helping out. “Mike Vigliotti is our MVP, especially in the spring,” Sutphen said of his transportation manager. “Watching this play out is the fun part, but you have to have those who help with the transportation and the paperwork.” The situation has been similar in Lake Placid, where the athletic program has brought home a pair of state championships (Class D cross country, state nordic skiing) along with competing in the boys hockey final four.
Section VII success in 2015-16 The following is a list of teams who made the state level of playoffs in the 2015-16 school year:

Our coaching staff too is well seasoned and we don’t have much turnover. Our studentathletes are training hard in their sports and also in the classroom. Many of these successful teams are also NYSPHSAA scholar athlete teams. It’s not a coincidence that these two accomplishments go hand in hand.” McDonald agreed. “Studies continue to show that kids who are involved in extra-curriculars are more successful in the classroom,” he said. The state championship run continued into the spring, as the Beekmantown boy’s 4-by-100 track quartet of Nathan Handy, Matt Villa, Loudon Frechette and Daryn Nephew took home the Division II title. The nice thing is watching our kids compete and excel on the state level,” Beekmantown A.D. Greg Myers said. “The kids have all worked hard and it is nice to see them get the recognition they deserve. Our goal is to always compete at the state level and we are able to hang a lot of banners because of it. No one is more proud of these boys than the administration of our district.” The success of Section VII has also been noticed on the Members of the Plattsburgh High boys soccer team point to the final score in the Class B championship game. state stage according to Willsboro Superintendent Stephen Photo by Jill Lobdell Broadwell, who is currently in his second and final season as

SYRACUSE — Nathan Handy had watched since the gun went off to start the NYSPHSAA Division II boys 4-by-100 relay race. He had seen Loudon Frechette open up a lead in the first leg, passing the baton flawlessly to Matt Villa, who kept the lead with another perfect handoff to Daryn Nephew, holding the lead as he rounded turns three and four, where Handy was waiting. “I got to see all the handoffs and I knew they had both been unbelievable,” Handy said, who ran the anchor leg for the Beekmantown relay team. “I see Daryn coming around the corner and I am thinking, we have a chance to win it. I took the baton from him and took off — everything was perfect.” Perfect was exactly what the foursome had been building for all season, as Handy crossed the line in a time of 43.38 seconds, winning the Division II state championship in the event by five one-hundreths of a second over Bennett. “Before the race, Loudon had told me if it comes down to it, you better dive,” Handy said. “I could kind of see the runners next to me and Coaches Gary Phillips and Andy Hastings bookend Division II state champions in the 4-by-100 meter relay, from left, Daryn Nephew, Loudon Frechette, Nathan Handy I was loading up to dive, but I decided to dip my and Matt Villa. head.
