Town of Plattsburgh assessor faulted in state audit

AREA FARMERS REACT TO FARM BILL

New insurance program welcomed, but overproduction continues to pose problem

Millions in exemptions given without proper documentation

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | The Town of Plattsburgh’s Assessor’s Office was faulted in a state audit for administering tax exemptions without sufficient documentation.

A state Comptroller’s Office audit released Dec. 14 found that from $86 million worth of tax exemptions granted last year, $6.6 million were approved despite a lack of proper supporting documents or applications on file.

Warming waters Acid rain problem was solvable, but climate change will be harder

By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

RAY BROOK | The reversal of damage caused by acid rain, which was devastating to native Adirondack fish populations, is an environmental success story.

But looming on the horizon is climate change, which could also be deadly, while at the same time being a harder problem to solve.

Daniel Josephson, a Cornell biologist for the Adirondack Fishery Research Program, told a meeting of the Adirondack Park Agency Thursday that by the 1920s, industrialization was beginning to raise acidity levels (which corresponds to a drop in pH)

HOLIDAY CHEER » pg. 4

in lakes within the park, and by the 1960s fish populations were in decline.

In many lakes, particularly in the Southwestern part of the park, there were virtually no fish, Josephson said.

Scientific studies of fisheries at Honnedaga Lake were abandoned in the 1970s, he said, because “there was nothing to net.”

Adirondack fisheries are most diverse around Lake George, but in the higher elevations few species took hold in the lakes as glaciers receded.

The iconic brook trout, along with lake trout and whitefish, were the primary victims of acid rain in fisheries that had not yet been invaded by bass, pike, or other predators.

Adirondack lakes were particularly vulnerable to acid rain, because the geology contained little calcium to mitigate its effects.

As a countermeasure, the state spread lime on the ice of some lakes in winter to raise the pH. » Warming waters Cont. on pg. 10

» Farm bill Cont. from pg. 1

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

WILLSBORO | George Sayward said the dairy industry is as bad as he’s ever seen it in his four decades as a farmer.

Prices continue to sell for below historic averages for the fourth consecutive year, which means many farmers lose money on each pound of milk they produce.

Shrinking access to foreign markets and uncertain commodity prices pose additional problems.

“The industry is in dire straights,” Sayward told The Sun. The $867 billion Farm Bill passed by Congress last week reauthorizes funding for numerous farming, conservation and nutrition programs after a touch-and-go year that saw negotiations collapse this summer over disputes over heightened work requirements for food stamps and immigration policy.

MARGIN PROGRAM SCRAPPED

The bill, which now awaits President Donald Trump’s signature, addresses the entrenched dairy crisis by reforming the now-scrapped Margin Protection Program, an insurance program that provides dairy farmers with payouts when milk prices fall or feed costs rise.

If a producer selects $7.50 coverage, for instance, benefits are paid when the producer margin goes below $7.50.

U.S. Sen. Kristen Gillibrand (D-New York) and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Schulyerville) have called the program a failure.

“Since 2014, thousands of New York dairy farmers paid millions of dollars to the USDA for this coverage, but when milk prices and feed prices fell at the same time, most farmers lost money on every pound of milk they sold and never received a payment,” said Gillibrand in a statement.

The replacement Dairy Margin Coverage (DMC) program offers revised margins that range from $4 to $9.50.

And the replacement reduces premiums on catastrophic coverage as well as eliminates prohibitions of participating in both DMC and the Livestock Gross Margin Program.

DMC also provides credits for producers who participated in MPP from 2014-2017, offering farmers either a 50 percent refund or a 75 percent credit toward purchase of a new risk program.

‘GOT NOTHING’

Sam Dyer, co-owner of a family farm in Beekmantown, applauded the changes.

Local farmers say the Farm Bill is a good start to alleviate problems facing the dairy industry.

“When the program was first implemented, we spent thousands of dollars and got nothing,” he said. “I don’t think I’ve even broken even on the program yet.”

Sayward, too, said the reforms are important.

“It’s really the only safety net the dairy industry has anymore,” he said.

Under MPP, farmers had to hit the margin two months in a row to receive a payout.

The timeline has been winnowed to one month. But while Sayward agrees raising the coverage ceiling is a good thing, he believes a major flaw remains in how the actual margin, known as Actual Producer Dairy Margin (APDM), is formulated.

The number is based on the nationwide price of milk and feed, including alfalfa hay, corn and soybeans.

But it’s formulated on wholesale numbers, not the price Sayward pays when those items are delivered by feed companies “So that margin is actually off by a fair amount,” said Sayward, who estimated at least a $1.50 differential.

“I was hoping that part of the Farm Bill would be more accurate, but it hasn’t been,” he said.

Stefanik said she advocated for language as part of the DMC that will require a comprehensive study on feed costs.

SUPPLY ISSUES

The dairy co-op to which Sayward belongs has lost 80 members this year, and now contains about 800 in New York, Maine, Connecticut and New Hampshire.

Despite the losses, however, production amongst the remaining farmers has increased, he said, even as consump-

tion is at a downward trend.

“It’s a matter of supply and demand over production by the dairy farmers,” he said.

Curbing production isn’t as simple as simply limiting the amount, he said, because farmers are producing more milk to increase cash flow in order to stave off plummeting cattle prices, therefore inadvertently making the problem worse.

Dyer agreed. “We have to get control of production,” he said. “We need to utilize our supply and not put them in inventory and kill the market.”

Cattle prices are also at a 30-year low, Sayward said.

The average cattle fell from $2,100 per head in 2014 to just below $1,000 at present — “if you can get somebody to buy them,” he said. “It’s going to be a real problem if price of cattle doesn’t start going up.”

Shifting global markets have also proved problematic for local farmers.

Sayward was optimistic the renegotiated NAFTA deal known as the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement would further open markets once ratified by Congress and signed by the president.

“That might be the beginning for turning this around more than anything else, but time will tell,” Sayward said.

The new bill also legalizes the production of hemp and expands insurance for specialty crops.

Dyer said diversification is the key to survival.

“We have to diversify,” he said. “It’s not just milk. We grow veggies, sell beef — we try to retail everything we can.” ■ — This story has been abridged for print. To read this story in its entirety, visit suncommunitynews.com.

» Town audit Cont. from pg. 1 “Of the 167 granted exemptions we reviewed totaling $13.3 million, we found 54 (32 percent) of the exemptions, valued at more than $6.6 million, lacked one or more pieces of supporting documentation to verify the eligibility of these exemptions and/or were incorrectly calculated,” the audit report reads.

The Town of Plattsburgh grants a total of 1,421 agricultural, veteran and senior citizen tax exemptions every year. Combined, the taxable value of those properties is estimated at $86 million, according to the report.

In one instance, a property owner received a reduction that allowed them to pay $5,608 less in taxes despite no longer being eligible for the exemption.

found errors in the ownership and residential percentages used in calculating the allowable exemptions that the assessor agreed with,” the report reads. “As such, we recommend the assessor review the assessment roll for noticeable errors.”

Last year the town had more than 5,200 total properties valued at over $1 billion.

“The town board does appreciate the role and ongoing efforts of the state of New York Comptroller’s Office (OSC) in conducting these audits,” Town Supervisor Michael Cashman and Assessor Brian Dowling wrote in response to the audit.

“The town does acknowledge the OSC findings, although few in percentage from the randomly selected sample over a large sample period.”

Town officials pledged to “strive for the highest standard” and said that the OSC’s findings would be addressed. ■

The U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General, as well as the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision, assisted in the investigation.

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Sharing the holiday

This time of year, we should all think about others and putting a smile on the faces of those

By Dan Alexander we love and even • PUBLISHER • those we hardly know. Many feel an even deeper joy when they can bring a smile to a perfect stranger.

The celebration of Hanukkah and Christmas is all about hope, faith and love. It’s a time for giving and receiving, a time for friends and family and it’s a time to remember the true meaning of the season of light and how the birth of a child changed our world forever.

In a world as mixed up as ours get s from time to time, where would we be without light and hope?

This time of year, when the darkness invades our lives here in the northeast, even the simple twinkle of holiday lights is enough to lift our spirits. Those lights pale in comparison to the true light of life we earnestly seek.

We would all like to have a storybook holiday season, and while each of us does our best to try and bring the right attitude into the holiday season, we know that for many, the holiday is just another day, devoid of light and hope.

Perhaps it’s the loss of a loved one, an illness or an addiction that keeps them from experiencing the joys of this season. It’s all the more reason we need to reach out to others during this time, helping them to experience the joy that is meant to shared.

It’s amazing what a little hope, faith and love can do in your life and those you reach out to if you are willing to share with someone less fortunate.

Let’s face it, with all of our holiday preparations and trappings we’ve developed over the years, at the end of the day wouldn’t you rather trade a little bit of those for a more perfect world filled with respect, sharing, light, hope and true peace for all?

On behalf of the Sun Community News family, I would like to wish you and your family a very joyous holiday, a prosperous new year and hope all your holiday wishes come true. God bless us, one and all.

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and best wishes in the coming new year. ■

Letter ‘brings no prestige’ to newspaper

To the Editor: Editor’s note: This letter is in response to Terry K. Hurlburt’s letter, “Climate change does exist — it’s called ‘spring, summer, fall and winter’” which appeared in the Dec. 15 edition of The Sun. The quality of the newspaper is judged by the quality of its news articles, the accuracy of its reporting, the intellect of its editorial staff and the tenor of the letters to the editor.

Honest debate of political matters based on reasoned and logical facts in the letters to the editor is a quality of a good newspaper.

The letter “Climate change does exist it’s called ‘spring, summer, fall and winter” brings no prestige to the paper and brings into serious question the intellectual integrity of the newspaper.

in so many ways. While serving his country in the armed services, he nearly lost his life defending you and me.

“Amazing Grace” was sung at his service by his friends, which spoke of how thankful he was, but always questioned “Why Me, Lord?” and spent his lifetime giving back as devoted husband, father, grandfather, statesman and finally as president.

What more could he do to pay back?

But he did so much more, for he was a peacemaker.

History bears that out.

But President Bush was a man of honor and lover of people and his country. The words of the hymns, came through as “This Is My Country,” “The Lord’s Prayer,” “Onward Christian Soldiers” and the national service hymn were played or sung and great voices always sound so full and wonderful when the people singing love the one they are paying tribute to.

The words spoken with such love and feeling and the grandson’s words were so filled with gratitude for a role model who shaped his life All the national protocol and honor, the home town love and warmth and the very private farewell was a fitting tribute to not only the president, but our president and the father of a president.

Thank you for sharing this man

We must move past climate change deniers

To the Editor: Editor’s note: This letter is in response to Terry K. Hurlburt’s letter, “Climate change does exist — it’s called ‘spring, summer, fall and winter’” which appeared in the Dec. 15 edition of The Sun. The angry and undocumented claims about climate change in the letter of last week seem as willfully blind and as tragically arrogant as those of President Trump.

If the highest concentrations of atmospheric carbon in 300,000 years, ocean acidification, glacial retreat, extreme fires and floods worldwide, sea level rise, shrinking ice sheets, warming oceans, decreased snow cover, global temperature rise, glacial retreat can’t convince that writer, nor the president, of climate change, then we must gently but firmly move past them.

Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists are convinced that these phenomena are human-caused. If that were an election, we’d be downplaying it to call it a landslide and the overwhelming mandate it is.

Voters OK CVES capital project Financial shares will vary by school district

As part of the project, CVES will relocate its Instructional Services Center from Area Development Drive in Plattsburgh and purchase property they’re already leasing at the old Clinton County Airport along with an additional 20 adjoining acres for future expansion.

District officials say the changes will save approximately $260,000 in lease costs per year, totaling over $2.6 million every 10 years moving forward.

Voters in 17 districts in Clinton, Essex, Warren and Washington counties headed to the polls last week.

But since CVES BOCES is a single unified district, approval wasn’t needed in all districts, but rather a simple majority vote.

“It’s impossible to break down who voted

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | Voters have signed off on Champlain Valley Educational Services’ (CVES) $29.8 million capital project.

The final vote tally last Tuesday was 72 percent to 28 percent.

The plan will allow for major infrastructure upgrades at the Plattsburgh and Mineville campuses, including bolstered security and safety.

in which district,” said Matt Smith, a CVES spokesman.

The portion each district will pay is proportionate and based on a formula known as RWADA, or “Resident Weighted Average Daily Attendance.”

That means districts with fewer students like Putnam and Keene Central will be asked to

shoulder fewer than 1 percent of project costs, while districts like Beekmantown Central are slated to pay 13.5 percent, or $2.4 million, and Plattsburgh City School, 13.1 percent.

Elizabethtown-Lewis and Westport Central were slated to contribute $449,130 and $377,384, respectively.

But the decision by voters to merge the

capital project last Tuesday. Pictured: CVES BOCES District Superintendent Dr. Mark Davey and Assistant Superintendent for Management Services Eric Bell presented details from the plan at a meeting of the Chazy Central Rural School Board of Education meeting in September.

File photo two districts earlier this month will result in that number being revised based on new RWADA numbers, said Smith.

Other district shares include Moriah (2 percent), Ticonderoga (5.6 percent), Crown Point (2 percent) and Schroon Lake at 1.3 percent.

Ausable Valley will pay 8.5 percent, and Willsboro, 1.9 percent.

(See sidebar for more details.)

CVES presented the plan to school boards in each district earlier this fall.

Officials are free to determine the best way to contribute their share, from one-time payments or more gradual arrangements.

“Each district is going to be different,” Smith said. “It is up to each district to decide what is best for them.”

The next step is the state environmental permitting process, which can take months.

“This will be a year in the ground before we put a shovel in the ground,” Smith said. ■

City police deliver toys for local kids Police union doubles Christmas Bureau donation

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | A nondescript U-Haul truck, filled to the brim with brightly-colored boxes, puttered to a stop before a pop-up storefront in the city’s south end last week.

From the driver’s side door a man jumped out, and more in dark blue uniforms with utility belts and shiny badges gathered at the back of the truck.

With a metallic clang, the door rolled open.

Inside were dozens of toys, all donations collected by the Plattsburgh City Police Local 812 for the Clinton County Christmas Bureau.

The items will be delivered by the local nonprofit to underprivileged children this season.

“It is nice to be able to have a positive experience with the public and help out those in need within the local community,” said union president Corp. Tralane Rabideau. “The goal is to promote strong ties between the police and public as well as being able to work together to achieve this goal.

“It certainly could not have been done without the help of our community members.”

The donations were collected at the union’s second annual “Cans for Kids” drive on Nov. 3.

This year city police collected more than $4,000 worth of toys. That’s double what was donated last year.

“I think that the fundraiser is reaching more people through

news articles like this, social media and word of mouth,” Rabideau told The Sun. “The year-round donations of bottles and cans continually added to make for a great year.

“I was surprised by some of the donations. Some people donated a truck load of bottles and cans, while others made cash donations. Most recently a family and business donated over $800 worth of toys!”

On social media, residents thanked the local force for their efforts.

“Thank you all for putting the light in children’s eyes this Christmas,” one woman, Susie Oliver, wrote. “Merry

The Plattsburgh City Police Local 812 delivered $4,000 worth of toys to the Clinton County Christmas Bureau outpost in Skyway Plaza last week.

Photos provided Christmas to everyone involved in this wonderful effort.”

“Thanks to everyone who helped to make a great year,” Rabideau said. “The work done between the police and the community members will hopefully put some smiles on the children’s faces Christmas morning. I am hoping we can do even better next year.” ■

Northeastern Clinton students win congressional app challenge

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

CHAMPLAIN | A pair of Northeastern Clinton students have received high marks for their design of an app that helps designers bring 3-D images off of their phone screens and into real life.

NCCS students Seth Albertus and Dalton Benjamin were named the winners of the 2018 Congressional App Challenge sponsored by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Schuylerville) and Rep. Peter Welch, Democrat of Vermont.

Each live in Alburgh, Vt. due to an agreement that allows students to transfer from the K-8 school to NCCS for high school.

“For what we want to do, opening the doors to New York was a big deal for us,” said Benajmin about coming to NCCS. “We really liked the education we could get here and since there is no high school in Alburgh, we decided to come here,” Albertus added.

Their “My Augmented Life” app uses augmented reality technology to bring 3-D objects to real-world environments.

The duo pointed out the application can be used by a variety of industries, such as interior design, which would utilize the application’s augmented reality technology to place 3-D modeled furniture into various interiors.

“It reads the image and will know the location of everything and will know the angle and position of the image based on

where the codes are set up,” Benjamin said.

“The winner last year made a to-do list. We wanted to do something that was more out of the box.”

“Or out of the closet,” said Albertus, referring to the video submission they made as part of the project, which can be found on YouTube at “Congressional App Challenge My Augmented Life.”

He continued: “I had never used augmented reality before now and I thought this would be a good starting point. We had to fix some bugs in the system the night we made the video, so it turned into a late night.”

“It was 4 a.m. in the morning, so it was a little cheesy,” said Benjamin.

The duo then waited to hear the good news, with Albertus saying he would search out his name as the award date approached.

“I know as we were waiting to find out if we won, I would continually Google myself to see if the results were up,” he said. “It feels really nice to have won.”

The duo have known each other since sixth grade and have both had a liking for technology and STEM skills and joined up with a robotics club in Plattsburgh, where they met Stefanik.

“We actually met Elise at a camp this summer and she looked at what we were doing,” said Benjamin. “She asked us if we wanted to take part in this competition and I think we signed up the next day.”

The pair will showcase their app at the U.S. Capitol, where it will be exposed to visi-

Welch also praised the duo: “I am so impressed with the talent and creativity of young people across Vermont,

who are learning important skills to prepare them for tomorrow’s economy,” Welch said in a statement.

Their application will be displayed in the U.S. Capitol building as well as on the Congressional App Challenge website. ■

PCSD floats footbridge deal District offers to repair Webb Island Footbridge if city takes ownership

The Webb Island Footbridge, a pedestrian connection from the city’s South End to the local high school and SUNY Plattsburgh, has been out of commission for over a year. It was closed last November in the wake of an engineering report that deemed the bridge unsafe to use.

By Elizabeth Izzo

This latest resolution, passed unanimously on Dec. 6, came nearly one month after the board unanimously agreed that they would not vote to repair the bridge until an agreement between the district and city was established.

The stance was essentially offered as an ultimatum: If an agreement isn’t reached, multiple board members said that they may vote to demolish the bridge.

“Given a history of difficult relations with the city, the board should be very diligent in being sure that the city will follow through on their commitment to take ownership,” board member Fred Wachtmeister said in a statement. “Absent cooperation by the city, the board should with all due haste seek a (request for proposals) for demolition.”

STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | The Plattsburgh City School District has made their position on the fate of the Webb Island Footbridge clear with a resolution passed this month.

The district’s Board of Education has formally offered to undertake the cost of repairing the bridge with help from state funding — if the City of Plattsburgh will agree to permanently take ownership after it’s fixed and maintain it in the future.

In exchange, the district would pay the city $50,000 in state funds.

As of last Monday, the district had not yet heard back from the city about the board’s offer, according to Superintendent Jay Lebrun.

Mayor Colin Read told The Sun that the city is still at the table.

“The city remains willing to be an equal partner in maintaining the footbridge,” he said. “We understand there is some state money available to repair the current defects that forced the (school district) to close their bridge.

“It is their call whether to proceed with that.”

ULTIMATUM

GAS LINE DEAL SHOT DOWN

At a special meeting last week, the Plattsburgh City School Board shot down an agreement that would have opened the doors for New York State Electric and Gas (NYSEG) to install a new gas pipeline.

The new pipeline, which would’ve replaced an existing one that runs along the footbridge, was slated to be placed along a Waterhouse

d,eluJ,i,oe."

Street property owned by the district, according to Wachtmeister.

“I think we need more clarity on the future use of the land if the line is moved there,” said board member Robert Hall Jr. Wachtmeister took issue with the timing of the agreement, and questioned why the board had been called for an emergency meeting.

Lebrun said that the district had received a copy of the proposed easement agreement 1-2 days prior to the special meeting being held last Monday.

And the special meeting had been scheduled at the urging of NYSEG, according to Lebrun.

“NYSEG just finished a boring project in Peru, so their equipment and staff are available… they visited us late last week to see if the easement agreement could be finished and approved very quickly so that they could move from one site to the next,” he said.

“That’s why we held a special meeting instead of waiting until our next regular meeting.” ■

10 • December 22, 2018 | The BG/NC Sun

On the pH scale, 7 is neutral, and without treatment, the pH in some Adirondack lakes dropped as low at 4.1.

The pH of vinegar is 2.4.

The acidity itself is not deadly, Josephson said, but it causes a chemical reaction that produces a form of aluminum that sticks to the gills of the fish.

Released into waters with high acidity, fish will be dead within a day.

The turnaround came in 1990 with amendments to the Clean Air Act, requiring scrubbers on coal-fired electrical generators. These measures reduced sulfur dioxide at the smokestack by 85 percent.

Change was slow at first, but as time went by, progress quickened.

“In 2000 we actually got a report someone was catching fish at Honnedaga,” Josephson said.

By 2011, pH had returned to a healthy 6, and fish populations were rapidly expanding.

At the same time, lakes were becoming murkier, which was actually a good thing.

Counterintuitively, crystal clear water is

not a sign of a healthy lake, which should have microscopic plants and organisms and dissolved carbons that give Adirondack lakes their coppery color.

As acidity declined, there was “a greening and browning effect,” Josephson said.

“Lakes were a lot less clear, which is basically saying they’re recovering from acidity.”

Water that is not as clear has a side benefit, in that it essentially offers shade to trout, which need cold water to survive.

And as the planet warms, these fish will need all the protection they can get.

So far this century, the occasional, extrahot years have killed off entire populations of adult fish in shallow lakes with no deep, protective pools of cold water.

The fishery in those more vulnerable lakes can survive only if small, young fish can take shelter in cold tributaries.

With acid rain, scientists and regulators could pinpoint the source of the problem and fix it.

But with climate change, there is no such silver bullet. As the atmosphere warms, so do the lakes and when the temperature hits 68 trout lose their ability to feed.

Teens for Marines celebrates another strong year Abundance of toys, monetary donations at Dec. 11 event

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | The Polar Express came to town and helped brighten the lives of those in need Dec. 11, thanks to Emily Estes and

the Teens for Marines program.

Estes hosted her annual toy drive and fundraiser at Cumberland 12 Cinemas, receiving donations of unwrapped toys and more while giving a gift of their own in the form of screening the film “The Polar Express.”

“It was on the bigger side this year, I’m pretty proud of it,” said Estes. “The movie has been something that has done well and we see the same faces year after year coming to donate.”

By the end of the night, Estes said they had collected eight large bags of toys, with more spread around the tree set out at the movie theater.

They had also collected over $360 in donations.

Estes, a senior at Beekmantown High School, has been holding the annual event since she was 12, and is now looking forward to what will happen next year.

“I’m trying to get my brother, Jacob, to take it over,” she said. “I’ll still be there to help, though.” ■

SANTA VISIT: The 13th annual Santa Trailer was held Dec. 16. Members of the Cumberland Head Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary and Santa visited every street in Cumberland Head on a parade float and handed out 250 goodie bags to the children. The goodie bags contained coloring books and stuffed animals purchased with fire department funds and Cumberland 12 Cinemas and Stewart’s Shops.

Stafford Middle School singers celebrate CD release

The Stafford Middle School A Capella ensemble Fermata Nowhere performs the Imagine Dragons hit, “Thunder,” as part of their album release party Dec. 13 in the school auditorium. See more photos from this event online at mycapture.suncommunitynews.com.

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | Stafford Music School’s Fermata Nowhere a capella group and a few of their friends came together last week to celebrate the release of the group’s album, “Shine.”

The group, under the direction of teacher Cody Hampton, performed at the album release party, singing holiday favorites such as “Carol of the Bells” and “Winter Wonderland” along with popular songs like “Thinking Out Loud” and the Imagine Dragons song “Thunder,” which the group released as a video.

“I have really found the whole process amazing,” said seventh grade tenor Bransen Fitzwater. “We have performed all over like in Vermont and Albany and it has all been a learning experience and singing better. We had to go to an airplane hanger for the music video and that was a long process, but worth it because it turned out great.”

“It was a lot of fun and work to be a part of the video, and the hard work paid off in the end,” added eighth grade tenor Eamon Graves. “It has taught me to be more confident when I am performing — it has really taught me how to perform.”

Eighth grader Amelia Lebrun agreed, saying the experi-

ence has been one she will always remember.

“It is an amazing thing that the school district has provided for us,” said Lebrun. “We are so comfortable with each other and have become such good friends. Before a show, we are all very nervous because we try to treat every performance like it is the most important and we try to pick each other up and help each other be our best.”

Fermata Nowhere was joined for their release party by several other groups, including the AuSable Valley ensembles of Unaccompanied Minors and Valley Voices, as well as the PHS Select Vocal Ensemble, Cumberland Bay Barbershoppers and the Champlain Valley Sweet Adelines. The Stafford Middle School String Ensemble and Oak Street Bucket Drummers also performed. ■

Local parents honor son by spreading Christmas cheer Lighted dairy truck highlights holiday season

“The day he was killed was the day our Christmas dinner and gift giving was planned.

He wanted nothing more then to be with his family.”

When he went out the door that morning, his last words to her: “Mom, turn the lights on.”

“He loved the meaning of Christmas, but especially the lights,” she said.

The first two Christmases without their son were gloomy, Robert said.

The family had been blessed with what Gail called a Christmas miracle — a grandson, Nick’s son — but holidays were still hard.

“I didn’t want to have Christmas this way when it was a holiday I always enjoyed,” he said. “So I went into my shop, found a bunch of Christmas lights, took spare trailer and put Christmas lights on it.”

On the front of the truck, two words are spelled out in bright lights — “St. Nick.”

“This truck helps us bring a very difficult time into joy and happiness to our community. Nick continues to touch so many lives and brings the spirit of Christmas to everybody,” Gail said.

The family will be driving around the region, stopping every so often in public areas with a mailbox for letters to Santa in tow, until Christmas. ■

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | It was three years ago that, in the wake of an unexpected tragedy, one local family decided to do something that would bring the joy back to Christmas.

In honor of their son Nick, who passed away in a snowmobile accident five years ago at the age of 21, Robert and Gail Roberts will be driving their dairy truck across the region this month adorned with hundreds of sparkling Christmas lights.

It’s a Christmas tradition, now in its third year, that has taken the Roberts as far away as Malone — all in the name of paring down negativity and bringing happiness to the community around them.

“The biggest thing I’d like to see come from this is to bring joy to the children, bring happiness to the community,” Robert said.

“We need more joy out there.”

With the rig decked out front-to-back in colored lights spanning the rainbow, the

In honor of their late son, Nick, local parents Gail and Robert Roberts will be driving a dairy truck decked out with hundreds of lights until Christmas.

Photo courtesy Gail Roberts worked as a corrections officer. He liked cars, particularly the Mustang he would race with, along with outdoor activities like four wheeling, fishing and hunting.

He also loved Christmas, Gail said.

“The events of the accident was unimaginable for any parent to endure but this was life changing for our entire family,” she said.

“Nick was our third son of four. Nicks was a correction officer and we planned our Christmas around his schedule that year.

Roberts drive in parades and park at public places throughout the area. The spectacle brings joy to the faces of children and adults alike, he said.

“We pass out candy canes and chocolate,” he said. “They’re so happy, you see their eyes light up.”

of the National Honor Society, is the son of Jennifer Dubuque of Peru and the grandson to Walter and Shirley Dubuque of Rouses Point.

“I visited Belmont Abbey this summer, it’s beautiful and I got to meet the coaches (Kenn Caudell and Randy Deangelo),” said Dubuque. “I was able to stay overnight with a couple members of the wrestling team and fell in love with everything about it. It just seems like the perfect fit for me all around. I’m excited they saw potential in me and I get to continue doing what I love wrestling for the next four years at this level. It just felt like home.”

While signing his letter of intent to wrestle at the Division II school, Dubuque said in preseason he in very focused on the months ahead.

“I am looking forward to competing with this new team and we will have some good competition coming our way,” Dubuque said.

“Last year was not good enough and I have to do better. There’s always room for improvement if you are not at the top and I am not there yet.”

He said the goal is to build off of last season’s third place finish, use what he has learned over the summer months of competition and practice to achieve the ultimate goal.

“It has pushed me further and further throughout the summer and I am ready to compete this winter and hopefully win that state title in February,” he said.

Dubuque will also be part of the ROTC Air Force program while at Abbey Belmont.

“I’m proud to follow in my grandfather’s footsteps by serving my country,” he said. “I will graduate college as an officer and hopefully be serving in the computer science field. I am really excited for my future and what it holds, I’ve worked hard to get to this point both on and off the mat.“ ■

PHS wins Hannah’s Hope fundraiser game

By Nathanael LePage SPORTS INTERN

PLATTSBURGH | Nate Boule scored a hat trick as the Plattsburgh High Hornets took down the Beekmantown Eagles, 7-1, in boys hockey while the community raised more than $3,000 for charity at Plattsburgh State’s Ronald B. Stafford Ice Arena last Friday.

The game was the fourth annual fundraiser for the Hannah’s Hope Fund, a nonprofit organization that helps fund research into possible treatments and cures for Giant Axonal Neuropathy.

Hannah Sames of Clifton Park, whose diagnosis with the genetic condition — which causes progressive nerve death — led her parents to found the charity, was on site to sing the national anthem. She also addressed each team in the locker rooms before the

game to express her thanks and well-wishes.

Sames’ mother and father attended Beekmantown and PHS, respectively.

Teri Frederick, a high-school classmate of Hannah’s mother, Lori, has organized the fundraiser every year since Sames first sang the anthem at a Beekmantown boys hockey game when Frederick’s son was a senior.

“It has grown every year,” Frederick said.

“Last year, we raised just over $3,000, and we have twice as many raffles this year.”

Attendees were invited to participate in raffles for a wide variety of prizes including a bucket full of tools from Lowe’s, gift certificates for both North Bowl Lanes and Mickey’s Restaurant, a 2019 regular season pass at Airborne Speedway and a custommade NHL-themed guitar.

The winner of the chuck-a-puck contest received a goalie stick signed by the Platts-

Plattsburgh High’s Nate Boule and Beekmantown’s Kaden Kowalowski take part in the ceremonial faceoff drop by Hannah Sames, as the two teams again played a charity game for the Hannah’s Hope Fund to help Sames and others diagnosed with Giant Axonal Neuropathy.

Plattsburgh High School head coach Jamie Reidy, whose team is an annual participant in the fundraiser, said the Hornets were extremely proud to be a part of the event.

By the end of the night, the total amount raised exceeded $3,000, with donations collected throughout the day at Applebee’s yet to be counted.

Beekmantown head coach Justin Frechette was pleased to see the result of the fundraiser.

“What a success: more than $3,000, and I know Applebee’s was packed today,” Frechette said. “We could pull in almost $4,000 for a young lady who exhibits toughness and mental strength through adversity, which is something we want to teach our kids.”

While the Plattsburgh and Beekmantown communities worked in cooperation off the ice, it was an entirely different story on the ice.

The mood for the game was set early, with Boule scoring the opening goal just short of 90 seconds into the contest, his first of three on the night.

Beekmantown struggled to get much sus-

tained offensive pressure. At the end of the first stanza, the Hornets led 2-0, having doubled their lead with a short-handed tally

by Ethan Kay. Reidy also praised Boule for his effort in the game.

“Nate is not only one of the most talented and gifted players I’ve ever had, but he’s our work horse, too,” Reidy said. “I certainly wouldn’t trade him for anybody.”

Boule was quick to deflect the praise toward his teammates.

“I wouldn’t be getting those goals if the players behind me weren’t working hard,” Boule said. “They’re working as hard as me; I just happen to be in the right spots.”

Frechette, reflecting on the loss in which the Hornets led shots on goal 31-14, said the game came down to one factor: effort.

“Plattsburgh beat us to every 50-50 puck all around the ice,” Frechette said. “It’s as simple as that. When our kids did what they needed to do, we generated [offensive opportunities], but 95 percent of that game Plattsburgh controlled just because of their effort.” ■
