Suspect in slaying of DA’s brother enters not guilty plea

Moriah man charged with three counts in shooting death

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | The case of a shooting death in Mineville will be heading to court in November.

Cody R. Cutting, who is accused of slaying of Derek J. “Boomer” Sprague in April, pleaded not guilty in front of Essex County Judge Richard Meyer during his arraignment on Monday.

Meyer set a trial date of Tuesday, Nov. 13 with pre-trial conferences set for Aug. 16 and Oct. 11.

Cutting has been charged with second degree murder, second degree manslaughter and second degree menacing.

At the proceeding, Cutting only uttered his name, home address and the word “yes” to a couple of questions from Meyer.

Meyer set bail at $1 million or $2 million bond for Sprague, although Warren County District Attorney Jason M. Carusone argued the weight of the charges could make the suspect a flight risk.

“We would like to focus the courts attention to the criminal act,” Carusone said. “If he were convicted of the top count, the

sentence could be for life. When someone faces the potential of never being free again, the court needs to take that into account.”

Carusone was appointed to replace Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague as prosecutor due to a conflict of interest.

Derek was Sprague’s brother.

Cutting’s attorney, Kevin O’Brien, said his client could be more involved in his defense if he were allowed bail.

In giving the chance for bail, Meyer said Cutting would be confined to the home of a family member and would only be allowed to leave for court appearances, appointments with his lawyer, and medical emergencies. He would also have to report to the probation office once per week.

During the arraignment, Carusone said the prosecution was ready for trial and offered evidence they had to the court and defense.

Carusone listed several items as evidence, including what he said was the voice of Cutting on tape saying he had killed “Boomer,” evidence showing the gun in the case was found where Cutting had told authorities to find it, and the nature of the shooting.

Following the hearing, O’Brien said the appearance went “relatively as expected.”

“This is an intense situation for everyone involved and even in a hearing, it can be intense,” O’Brien said. “We don’t

want to go too far into what we are going to do for our defense at this time, but we are looking forward to a trial.”

The case stems from an altercation that began in the bar at the Moriah Eagles Club on April 22.

Sprague, 44, of Witherbee, was located deceased from an apparent gunshot wound in the parking lot, according to state police.

A preliminary investigation revealed the altercation began in the bar and continued into the parking lot, where Cutting allegedly retrieved a handgun and shot the victim. ■

Students dive headfirst into local history

KEESEVILLE | Fifth grade students at Keeseville Elementary School drew a large crowd to their museum night last Thursday.

Displays and interactive science projects showed how months of work, study and handson exploration taught them about the history, growth and landscape of their town.

It challenged the young students to think back about how and where they might have built their homes along the AuSable River.

One of seven learning projects on display, a pioneer cabin exercise took weeks of planning and

study before a few more weeks of construction.

Each of the 45 fifth graders developed a plan for packing, skills training and a few materials.

And they had to write their choices in pen on project worksheets because it couldn’t be changed.

From the pre-planning notes, students then built replica cabins. If, for instance, they hadn’t chosen “wood” as a material or an ax as an implement, then their cabin had to be built of another material.

Maddy Perry’s cabin was made of wood with a stone fireplace and a loft sleeping space.

“It was hard,” she said of the series of exercises that lead to construction.

“But it was really fun.”

The small, square diorama features a rug and one chair with a few simple cooking implements she also made. » Museum night Cont. on pg. 7

Lewis residents Bobbie and Mark Sauter are soliciting recommendations for how to decorate their concrete deer, which has become something of a roadside attraction since they moved to the area last year.

For new homeowners, statue gives birth to endearing new tradition

Deer serves as roadside attraction

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

LEWIS | The couple could be forgiven for initially overlooking their new fine-antlered friend.

Relocating is stressful.

And the Sauters, who moved to Lewis from Philly to escape the rat race, didn’t settle into their cozy two-story house on Hyde Road until last March after a winter of sustained snowfall.

But the spring thaw revealed a surprise hidden in the snowbanks.

A buck.

A deer.

A concrete deer.

Mark Sauter’s first inclination was to remove the creature.

But the sculpture, seemingly held together by years of paint, was affi xed firmly to the hard-packed soil.

“Oh yeah, so there’s a deer out front,” Mark recalled.

“Now what?”

The only clue to the animal’s upkeep from the former homeowner was a Mason jar simply labeled “deer paint.”

Mark’s wife, Bobbie Sauter, works in marketing and specializes in visual communications.

It wasn’t long before the pair found some creative inspiration.

After outfitting the animal with a clean white coat, the couple had a fresh palette from with which to work, giving their new lawn ornament a newfound purpose: Art project.

Following a American-themed July 4 color scheme, the deer was flecked with fall leaves.

Halloween saw the emergence an all-black creature with a bone-white skeleton.

Essex Community Church hosts:

Thanksgiving, of course, saw the creature transformed into a turkey, while the animal took on a Grinch-like demeanor for Christmas.

As winter cycled back around, the drop in temperatures posed a challenge — namely how well paint stuck to the concrete body.

But Mark ventured out into the sub-zero climate to cloak the stately buck in a coat of pink hearts and arrows.

The legend grew locally and the animal — replete with authentic antlers and bathed in ground-level light — has become something of a roadside attraction.

At present, the creature is star-spackled with glittery stars to commemorate Memorial Day. The Sauters are now soliciting suggestions for future designs — and also a name.

But keep it family-friendly.

“It seems to really make them smile,” Mark shrugged. “I don’t know why.” ■ Have a suggestion? Drop the Sauters an email at bobbiejsauter@gmail.com.

Historic house burns in Westport Stable Inn razed by fire

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

WESTPORT | A fixture of the Lake Champlain shoreline since 1916 is no longer to be seen, as the Stable Inn, located in Westport, was destroyed by fire over Memorial Day Weekend.

The fire started in the late evening hours of May 25, with multiple fire departments reporting.

Upon arrival, firefighters worked not only to get water on the main structure, but also on the neighboring cottage and several trees surrounding the property in hopes they would not ignite.

Essex County Emergency Services Director Don Jaquish said the building was so heavily destroyed by the blaze, that a determination on how the fire started could not be made.

The home was built in 1916 for Ethel DuPont Barksdale and was later operated as the Stable Inn. It accommodated a maximum of 15 people, including children, on three floors. ■

Chainsaw carver, long cited by Martz as success story, steps out With help from Adirondack North Country Association, artisan’s business soars

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

LOWVILLE | He exists.

Anyone who’s been following the Democratic primary contest for New York’s 21st Congressional District has probably heard Emily Martz refer to a chainsaw carver from Lowville.

The figure has been a staple of the candidate’s stump speech since she threw her hat into the ring last July.

“A couple of months ago, I was in Lowville,” Martz told the crowd at her campaign rollout in Saranac Lake’s Riverside Park. “And a young man who is a chainsaw wood carver came up to me and said, ‘Because of the Adirondack North Country Association — because of the marketing skills you gave me and because of the markets you’ve opened for me, I can barely keep up with business.’”

Since then, Martz has mentioned the carver dozens of times in appearances across the state.

His name is Daniel Rocker, and he’s from the Village of Port Leyden,

which is actually 21 miles southeast of Lowville in Lewis County.

Rocker attended a candidate forum at the Lowville Academy on Saturday.

“She’s too kind,” Rocker laughed when told of his legendary status.

Martz, one of five Democratic candidates seeking the nomination to unseat Rep. Elise Stefanik (RWillsboro), has made job creation a campaign centerpiece, citing her track record as deputy director of the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) in helping bolster the regional economy.

Rocker said ANCA has transformed his business, Cabin Critters, through their Adirondack Buyer Days program.

He’s been carving the wooden sculptures for years as a hobbyist.

But business took off after ANCA facilitated a wholesale show in 2015 designed to link local artisans with a broad network of regional retailers.

“That really made a big difference,” Rocker said. “There’s no way I could go meet each of them, so they just brought the business to me.”

He estimated annual output of his carvings grew from 400 to 500 to between 1,200 to 1,400.

While his operation remains largely seasonal, business is brisk enough that he can hire help when needed, he said.

Rocker said he supports Martz not only because of her work with ANCA, but also because he agrees with her on numerous other issues as well.

Healing veteran’s meeting in Essex

ESSEX | On the first Wednesday of each month, combat veterans meet at 7 p.m. at St. John’s Church in Essex, New York seeking to resolve past traumatic memories through a program of sharing as comrades in fellowship, humor, hope and prayer; Veterans Overcoming Wounds (VOW).

The goal of this group is to break the

chains of the past which have deprived us of sleep, close relationships, recreation and trust in those near us and have driven us to seek comfort through drug and/or alcohol addiction, seclusion, anger and violent reactions.

It is a sanctuary of peace and healing through the love God has for each of us and to invite others who have been deployed to combat zones.

Each meeting begins with selected scriptures and insights, a brief introduction of those present, the selection of topic, discussion of the same or a particular need arising amongst us and healing prayer.

Individual discussion, prayer and healing will be available throughout the evening.

For further information, call Father Craig Hacker, 1-518-963-4657 ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Sticks and stones

Grandma Grotecelli always said, “Sticks and stones will break your bones, but names can never hurt you.”

By Dan Alexander Back then, kids • PUBLISHER • could be mean and say awful things. As kids, we were told to follow the example of adults who knew better and would never stoop to such childish behavior as name calling.

We were taught to ignore those who couldn’t solve conflicts any other way than to resort to name calling and by ignoring them, they would soon realize you were completely unphased by their words.

Their goal was to bring you down to their level to create a verbal or physical reaction.

It’s not just those who are doing the name calling these days who are acting badly, but just as bad are those who stoop to the level of the filthy mouthes, calling for the offender’s hides by demanding punishment.

Those doing the name calling got exactly what they wanted. They drew attention to themselves, and they successfully perpetuated the long-standing feud between the left and the right with new ammunition.

It’s unfortunate how low people will go to stir up trouble while others are quick to join in the rumble.

Both Valarie Jarrett and Ivanka Trump are to be commended for taking the high road by not giving in to responding.

Ms. Jarrett merely commented that it’s time to demand better, while Ms. Trump chose not to dignify the remarks by commenting.

Their disciplined and courageous refusal to engage should set an example of how best to deal with disrespectful and vulgar people who lack common decency.

As for the rest of those who chose to dive into the retribution field demanding an eye for an eye, well you just took the bait; hook, line, and sinker.

America is far too full of anger and hatred these days, and by responding to such disrespectful language, they gave both parties exactly what they wanted by allowing their words to stir up further animosity in an already volatile environment.

I was brought up to believe that fighting was not the way to settle a dispute. It was true 60 years ago, and it’s still true today.

It’s one thing to take action when a bully is physically assaulting someone weaker, but names and words are harmless when you walk away.

The best advice is not to associate or support those who lack respect for themselves and others. ■

The Sun Editorial

PRINT Act to safeguard newspaper industry welcomed — but support is a two-way street

Six months after a pair of tariffs imposed by the Trump administration raised Canadian newsprint imports prices by roughly 30 percent, the ill-advised policies have begun to extract some scalps.

The latest casualty is the Tampa Bay Times, which announced the elimination of 50 jobs in April as a direct result of the retaliatory trade measures.

This year has already seen the evisceration of several prominent newsrooms, including the GateHouse-owned Florida Times-Union, the Sacramento Bee and the Denver Post, which drew a lacerating public rebuke from its staff following proposed layoffs despite healthy profit margins.

Newspapers like the New York Times, Boston Globe and Washington Post, which have deep-pocketed investors and robust digital subscription models, have proven to be the exception rather than the rule.

We’re heartened by bipartisan legislation sponsored by Maine senators Susan Collins and Angus King that would suspend the tariff.

The PRINT Act would also call for the U.S. Department of Commerce to conduct a study of the American printing and publishing industry, which represents some 600,000 jobs nationwide.

We urge U.S. Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand and Charles Schumer to support this legislation.

It’s clear that these tariffs — which were implemented after a single hedge fundowned paper mill complained Canada unfairly subsidized newsprint manufacturing — will damage the U.S. newspaper industry.

The toxic tariff threat comes when absentee hedge fund owners are devouring the industry, buying newspapers across the country when the industry continues to struggle to

Plattsburgh International Airport upgrades are not ‘critically needed’

To the Editor: With respect to the “Opinion From The Editorial Board” dated May 12, I take exception to the statement claiming New York state has been a champ funding “critical upgrades at the Plattsburgh International Airport.”

The $92 million thrown at the airport is for Democratic votes and building where there is no market but it is “hoped for.”

Just like it was “hoped for” PenAir would stay until SkyWest started at their leisure. None of this is “critically” needed or has

reverse declining advertising revenue, circulation and other market forces.

The perfect storm comes when a free and independent media is more needed than ever.

But while we reserve a special type of white-hot antipathy for hedge fund owners, they’re not the only culprits.

The Salt Lake Tribune, for instance, was rescued from hedge fund ownership in 2016, but laid off 38 percent of their newsroom staff earlier this spring, citing declining circulation and ad revenue.

The impacts have deep impacts for journalism in Utah, as the paper plans to eliminate state and local coverage news sections for much of the week.

Those who don’t see the value in paying for local news also bear the responsibility for this disintegration of our collective civil fabric.

In a recent conversation with a well-connected Albany insider, we shook our heads after they balked at how a Capital Region newspaper had shrunk in recent years, but admitted they weren’t a subscriber, and didn’t see the importance of paying for news.

To us, that really encapsulates the other leading disconnect facing our industry right now: Everyone wants something for nothing.

But what happens when that’s no longer an option?

Facebook and Twitter will not cover the news deserts emerging across the U.S. Our reporters have covered numerous hard-hitting stories across the region in the past several weeks, including a controversial proposed code of conduct in Plattsburgh, a criminal Medicaid scheme that allegedly bilked the state of nearly $10 million in taxpayer dollars, and the scrutiny surrounding an embattled economic development official

a viable market here.

So that is yours and my tax money that would be better spent on our infrastructure needs as you state in the opinion article.

Trust me here and do some real investigative reporting. Have a reporter accompany me to the airport managers office, and lets ask some where-with-all questions, examine documents seeking all the airlines that have declined to service Plattsburgh and get into the facts.

Maybe as an uncontrolled airport (no operating ground or tower control) real airlines have to stay away. Could be there may even be corruption to include the selection of the new FBO (Fixed Base Operator).

You have a newsman privilege and duty to report facts.

Need further evidence of the value of newspapers to civil society?

Cities where newspapers shuttered saw increases in government costs as a result of the lack of scrutiny over local deals, according to researchers who tracked the decline of local news outlets between 1996 and 2015.

“Disruptions in local news coverage are soon followed by higher long-term borrowing costs for cities,” CityLab reported last week. “Costs for bonds can rise as much as 11 basis points after the closure of a local newspaper — a finding that can’t be attributed to other underlying economic conditions.”

This is particularly salient in cities like Plattsburgh, which faces significant — even existential — financial challenges.

Have we convinced you yet?

This isn’t the equivalent of shaking a tin cup, but supporting a local newspaper is a two-way street, and it’s time to have a public discussion over sustainability before it’s too late. ■ — The Sun Editorial Board

Trump lies lead to diminished American credibility

To the Editor: President Trump reported last week on “Fox & Friends” that illegal border crossings from Mexico are down over 40 percent. That is very impressive.

The only problem is that, in reality, illegal border crossings are actually up 20 percent since he became president. Last month, the number of illegal crossings were triple the number from April 2017.

Does it matter that the President of the United States makes statements that are not true?

I contend that it does matter.

are not to be trusted. Other nations are learning that the United States under Donald Trump is not to be trusted. He will say anything to make himself look good, even if his lies and exaggerations make the country look bad.

In addition, when a national emergency hits the United States, the president must speak to the country and call for a unified response. How can Donald Trump do that if he has no credibility? How can he be an effective commander in chief if anyone in service knows that Trump is often ignorant of the facts?

I invite other readers to consider this as American citizens, not as Republicans or Democrats. Does it matter if the president makes statements which are not true?

Museum Night also connected kids deeply students to Keeseville, its streets, buildings, history and environment.

“We always try to instill pride in the community here,” Grade 5 teacher Mr. Butler said. ■

North Country SPCA

Spring The small cabin homestead built by fifth grader Maddy Perry used wood and stone as construction materials. She carefully selected these to use as students thought through their pioneer project before building.

Maddy Perry, a fifth grader at Keeseville Elementary, shares her pioneer cabin display with her family at Museum Night.

Fifth grade students at Keeseville Elementary School built an interactive soils map that lights up, showing different soil types they found by testing around their homes.

Keeseville students helped explain how their augmented reality sandbox illustrates topography as they change mountains and rivers in sand.

“I wouldn’t fit, well, unless I shrank a lot.”

BIG NIGHT

The event was the culmination of an integrated teaching program created by Grade 5 teachers Becky Bassett, Tim Butler, Lindsey Campagna and Computer Education instructor Mario LaFranca. The collaboration brought many types of learning into each display.

“We did a ton of local research looking at different themes, economic, social, environmental, geological and historic,” explained Bassett.

It started earlier this school year with soils collection from each child’s home.

Testing soil types, every student’s home was placed on a diorama of Keeseville around the AuSable River.

Then, circuits with different colored light bulbs lit up soil types: loam, sandy loam or

Student illustrations were captioned with QR codes. Strung across a swooping rope, the display spanned the entire length of the school’s auditorium.

In addition to drawing the structure they studied, the kids made a YouTube video report on their historic place, which connects to their drawing with a QR code.

Family and friends could capture code with a smart phone or other device and watch the history report.

Near their interactive soils maps, the students had helped Bassett set up an Augmented Reality Sandbox.

The Linux computer system, developed at the University of California--Davis, programs light shining above the sandbox to measure topographical marks as kids change the sand to build mountains and valleys.

There were a lot of changes in the sandbox

“It allows you to dig and the water appears if you dig deep enough,” Logan said.

Keeseville school Principal Kevin Hulbert showed how piling sand onto high “mountain” areas to change the topographic overlay creates a white cap, indicating snow.

Bassett, who built the box to hold the special light system above and computers below, put the display on wheels, so it can be moved between various elementary classrooms.

“It’s pretty amazing what the kids have learned,” Principal Hulbert said.

Systems thinking gives students a way to compare past with present to consider the future.

A hand held just above a “mountain” creates a downpour of “rain” that then flows in rivulets to blue “rivers” and “ponds” below.

At the time of this writing, we have nearly 20 kittens and very young cats who need a family to call their own.

Although we have some amazing staff and volunteers, and our shelter is a state-of-the-art facility, the truth is, there is no substitute for the attention of a loving family to foster the development of a kitten into a purr-fect adult companion.

It saddens us to see kittens born in the shelter or remaining here for several months or longer before they make that connection to a family.

Our featured pet this week is Matt, a domestic shorthair-mix who is one of our kittens available for adoption.

Matt was originally was quite wild and fearful of humans when he arrived at the shelter. Since his arrival here, he has come to trust our shelter staff and his sparkling personality has really begun to show.

Matt enjoys playing with toys, bird watching and wrestling with his feline buddies. As an active young boy, Matt isn’t so interested in laps or snuggles with humans at this point – he wants excitement!

If you are looking for a cat to keep you – or your current feline resident – entertained, Matt is defi nitely your boy. With his playfulness, handsome black-and-white coat and energetic zest for life, you simply can’t go wrong with this boy.

Westport Central to weigh staff cuts

Expect formal recommendations in early June, says super

be published by June 5, Scott said.

And only two rounds of school budget voting are permitted in New York, he explained.

CONCERNED ABOUT FAILURE

If the second budget vote here also fails, then the school must default to a zero taxlevy increase, essentially forcing the school board to use its current budget again next year.

And with health insurance cost increases at 13 percent, default to contingency spending would likely mean cutting four positions, Scott said.

School board members Sue Russell and Jason Welch said they do not want to risk a second budget vote failure.

“We will not gain a supermajority (with an override),” Russell said.

She said 35 taxpayers called her with questions about the nearly 10 percent tax levy increase proposed in round one.

And while the number of voters was low, those who did vote ware the people concerned about cost, Russell said.

Welch agreed.

“The risk of trying for another supermajority could put us in more peril than we are in now,” Welch said.

By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

WESTPORT | Westport School Board approved a revised budget plan Tuesday night, one that sticks at the state mandated tax levy cap at 2.42 percent.

The 3 to 1 board member approval requires cutting three teaching jobs, likely two positions would close due to attrition.

But school board member Tom Kohler and the Westport Education Association sought to ask voters a four or five-percent tax levy increase.

“I would thank the board for taking a risk at putting the budget out (initially) at 9.98 percent,” said Cathy Brankman, head of the WEA (teachers’ union.)

“I’m wondering if you would consider going out (to budget vote) at five percent? We have been blessed to have a culture here ... to offer more for our students to explore.”

‘DOMINO EFFECT’

Each decision to cut, Brankman said, has a domino effect on school staff and programs.

Kohler asked specifically what cuts would be made to attain the $6,296,938 budget.

But Westport Central Superintendent A. Paul Scott said he was still researching, looking and listening to stakeholders to determine which positions would be eliminated.

The decision has to be made before the June 5 public hearing.

“If you establish a budget tonight, I’ll engage with others and ultimately provide you with (the job or other cuts) by early June,” Scott said.

All New York school budget figures must

VOTER EXIT SURVEY

Westport school officials conducted a voluntary exit survey as voters left the polls last week, 295 people voted on the school budget.

And about half of voters (49.5 percent) participated in the exit poll.

Here is some of what the survey found: -- 81 percent of survey participants who voted “no” said they believe the proposed tax increase was unreasonable.

-- 5 percent of survey participants who voted “no” on the budget said they are not pleased with the quality of education in Westport.

-- 87 percent of survey participants who voted “yes”

Kohler asked if both members were willing to go above the tax cap.

“Nope. I’m staying within the cap,” Russell said. “I just feel we’ll do the best we can under the circumstances.”

Board President Alice LaRock also said she would stay at the tax cap.

“If we present a higher tax rate, it will not pass,” LaRock said.

Board member Jim Carroll was absent from the meeting.

“You have received your feedback,” Scott said of the school budget’s failure last week.

“It would be a disservice to establish another override budget,” Scott said.

PUBLIC REACTS

There were about 10 Westport residents at the special meeting Tuesday.

Besides Brankman and teacher Jay Feigl, just one parent spoke up.

Ryan Hathaway, whose wife Lorraine teaches at Westport Central, said the school is already “asking teachers here to be a mile wide and an inch deep.”

“We don’t want to lose anyone,” Brankman said.

The teachers met collectively and tried to said they believe in supporting schools.

-- 28 percent of survey participants who voted “yes” said the tax increase was reasonable.

-- 25 percent of survey participants who voted “no” said the budget was unsound.

-- 67 percent of voters who participated in the survey said they are generally pleased with instructional programs at Westport Central School.

-- 47 percent of survey participants voted “yes” on the budget.

-- 39 percent of survey participants voted “no” on the budget.

The entire survey is on the school’s website: bit.ly/2IXL6ZP ■

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The Westport School Board voted to bring a $6,296,038 proposed 2018-19 budget back to voters.

The amount calls for a property tax increase of 2.42 percent, which is at the state tax-levy cap allowance.

The public hearing for this budget is: Tuesday, June 5 at 6 p.m. in the school auditorium.

The school budget re-vote is on June 19 from noon until 8 p.m. in the auditorium lobby. ■ find other areas to cut, she said.

School materials spending has already bottomed out, leaving no room for even new reading materials.

Students are using books that are in poor and torn condition, Brankman said.

The school already condensed the superintendent and principal into one job, beginning July 1, to save on administrative costs.

The cafeteria and maintenance personnel are lean but adequate, Scott said.

“The instructional staff is what remains,” the superintendent said.

Two teachers are possibly ready to retire this year, one physical education instructor and one math teacher.

But Scott said he will release formal cut recommendations in early June.

Russell said better communication about tax levy costs per thousand is imperative in getting the word out this time, hoping parents see the value of paying for education.

“Education keeps our kids out of jail,” she said.

“It keeps (job) revenue coming into our towns. People who are educated stay employed. There is value in what you spend in educational dollars.” ■

Grant programs aim to reduce impact of climate change on farming North Country may face milder winters, wetter growing seasons

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

ESSEX | The Adirondack Council has allocated nearly $20,000 in grant funding to over a dozen local farms to help curb carbon emissions and prepare for climate change.

The Champlain Valley farms have received small sums designed to further climate-friendly, energy efficient and more sustainable projects.

Some farms will purchase solar fencing and rainwater catchment systems designed to accommodate a wetter climate.

Others will use the funds for high tunnel greenhouses designed to extend the growing season; weatherization and insulation upgrades, and drought preparation efforts.

“A few dollars invested wisely now can bring benefits for many generations to come,” said William Janeway, Adirondack Council’s executive director.

Four Old Forge businesses also received funding through the annual program.

The effects of climate change on upstate farming is complex, said David W. Wolfe, Ph.D., professor of plant ecology in the Department of Horticulture at Cornell University and chair of the Cornell University Atkinson Center for a Sustainable Future Climate Change Consortium.

“Farming has always been challenging, and climate change will increase the uncertainty,” Wolfe told The Sun. But any possible change won’t be as catastrophic in the North Country than in other parts of the world, he said.

Shifting temperatures may lead to the continued trend of an expanding frost-free period, which means an expanded growing season.

This could lead to corn varieties that will offer a higher yield during harvest season, for instance, or double cropping, a agricultural practice commonly utilized in the southern United States.

However, a longer frost-free season doesn’t always translate to longer growing season, said Wolfe, and wetter fields may be a detriment to those without proper drainage systems.

“Those are difficult conditions, but that’s what farmers are facing,” Wolfe said. “There’s a noticeable expansion of uncertainty.”

Climate change may also lead to an increased risk of short-term summer droughts.

ESSEX FARM

Essex Farm received $1,500 to purchase a solar-powered water pump to be moved around the farm to provide water for livestock and irrigation.

“We’re certainly hedging all the time for resilient production methods in the face of dry weather and wet weather,” said co-owner Mark Kimball. “So we’re investing in a lot of money in underground tile drainage to help with excess rain and excessive drought.”

Kimball pointed at a field that had recently been drained, acknowledging circumstantial evidence revealed the weather appeared to be wetter that it had been in the past 15 years.

But infrastructure upgrades must be paired with the acknowledgment that farmers themselves play a role in climate change through the use of diesel-power tractors, which release carbon into the atmosphere.

“That’s the kind of irony,” Kimball said. “Farming is 30 percent of climate change overall. So I am the problem and I am aware of that.”

Balancing that realization with running a successful business is a humbling issue Kimball says he grapples with every day.

He called the Adirondack Council’s grant program, which has awarded $65,000 over three years for 54 projects with support from the Klipper Fund and the Lookout Fund, helpful, calling it the “beginning of an experience where more people are starting to buy into idea that they see agriculture is deleterious.”

“It’s not too late, too little,” he said.

Exact metrics on carbon footprints are still needed in order to better combat the issue, a measure the farm is probing through partnerships with Microsoft, MIT Food Labs and SUNY Albany.

“We need to get data quickly, and then we need to see the data change as we do better or worse,” Kimball said. ■

Full and By Farm was among the local farms who received climate change mitigation grants from the Adirondack Council this spring. The operation received $1,000 for maintenance and upgrades to horse-drawn farming equipment.

INCREASED UNCERTAINTY

As a result of the unpredictably, farmers are often placed in a holding pattern, and need to choose wisely when it comes to which projects in which to invest, like irrigation or drainage systems.

“Farmers are smart business people. But they have to be quite wary,” Wolfe said.

Warmer winters can also present an issue with perennial food crops like apples. Premature warming can lead to preblooming of the fruit over time, which could put them in jeopardy of frost risk.

Early warm temperatures followed by a spring frost resulted in half of the state’s apple crop cost in 2012, Wolfe said, an occurrence that may happen more frequently.

Farmers have intuitively started to cope by planting different crops, he said. Others are installing misting systems paired with the low-cost strategy of increasing organic matter in soils to benefit crop productivity.

AuSable season ends in regional finals

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | The AuSable Valley varsity softball team had final four aspirations for the 2018 season.

Getting to the regional finals was one step away, but a strong Greenville team kept them at bay, as the Patriots fell, 9-0 in the Class C regional finals June 2.

“We have some girls that played travel ball last summer and saw some good pitchers, but this was the best pitcher we have ever seen,” said coach Neil Bowlen after the game about Ava Fitzmaurice. “She had just enough movement so we had a hard time bunting, and once they built up lead we had to abandon our small ball game, which hurt.”

The Patriots got two of their three hits in the final inning, but a double play and pop-out ended the game.

“We kept fighting, but we knew it would be a tough task,” Bowlen said. “Overall, this was a big year for the program.”

Renna Prentiss had a double for the Patriots, while Elliana Bowlen went the distance in the circle for AVCS, striking out two.

In the field, Dru Gravelle made a pair of impressive catches in centerfield, one early in the game and one in the sixth inning to secure the only perfect inning for the Patriots defense. ■ AuSable Valley’s Dru Gravelle makes a leaping catch in centerfield against Greenville in the Class C regional final softball game against AVCS June 2.

In year three, unified basketball continues to grow Two new teams this year, chance of expanding to new lanes?

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

SARANAC | For the third year, local schools came together for a day focused not only on competition, but on building the game of basketball with students of all abilities in Section VII. The third Section VII Unified Basketball Tournament was held at Saranac Central School May 23, featuring two new teams from Saranac Lake and Peru joining AuSable Valley, Beekmantown, Plattsburgh High, Ticonderoga and Saranac for the third season of unified hoops.

“I think you are going to see it expand more in the next few years,” said Ticonderoga Athletic Director Robert Sutphen, who coordinates the unified program for Section VII. “We are starting to see a lot more progress and likeness in our program. Kids are improving from year to year. They are starting to understand the strategy, concepts and the plays. The effects of that on a personal level in the school is even greater.

They come into the high school looking forward to being a part of this program.”

Sutphen said the greatest benefit is allowing kids who may not otherwise play a sport to participate on a team and learn about the game, turning it into a positive experience for all involved.

“The new schools have had a lot of positive comments,” Sutphen said. “A lot of bad stuff gets reported in sports and you never hear

Sutphen said the program allows seniors with leadership opportunities as they join the unified team to act almost as another assistant coach to the team.

“The kids who are in this are leaders in the classroom and are trying to bring other kids into this program,” he said. “If you are a leader in one area, you will be a leader in another, and you see that a lot here. If that gets more kids out and the coaches are wanting to promote that, mission accomplished.”

“This program is the best thing going in NYSPHAA right now,” said Section VII Ex-

ecutive Director Matthew Walentuk said. “I think it brings the school community more together and unify them instead of being ostracized. They are representing their team, their school. There is a common theme between them.”

To a person, all of the players enjoy being on the court.

“I love Unified,” said Ticonderoga’s Cheyenne Bowman. “It is my favorite. It is amazing to be on. This is my third year. I feel welcome.

These people are my family. I would do this again and would encourage anyone to do it.”

Some players enjoy the sport because they get the chance to compete with their friends.

“I love being with my friends,” Josh Hatch of Saranac said. “I do this because it’s after the musical and Shayna White)is in the musical and she’s my friend.”

“Josh and the other kids are the reason why I chose to do this,” said White, a senior.

“It’s been so great with them and they are now my family. They really inspire me and I want to spend time with them.”

Others want to improve their skills.

“I go out to have fun,” said AuSable’s Ryan Burnah. “I’m learning a lot. My favorite part is making shots. This is my second time. The first year I didn’t do to well, but now I am.”

“It’s great to meet new people,” said PHS’s Nevaeh Strong. “This is my second year doing this. I feel welcome. These people are my family. I feel welcome.”

Building friendships has also been a part of the unified program, according to Ticonderoga’s Frank Boyd.

“Unified is a really good experience,” he said. “It’s been fun meeting new friends from other teams and going out there and doing my best for my team. I would do this again and would encourage anyone to do it.” ■

offense Stahl leads Madrid-Waddington Section VII too much for Blue Bombers golfers

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CORNELL | Moriah’s Joey Stahl carded rounds of 75 and 80 at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Course on Cornell University June 3-4, placing him 21st overall at the end of the two-day event.

The senior, who won the Section VII title last week, was the top finisher for Section VII, falling 12 strokes behind winner Adam Xiao.

Section VII runner up Drew Maiorca of Lake Placid placed 72nd with a score of 28-over par. He was followed by Keegan Smith of Peru (88th, + 41), Paul Fine-Lease of Willsboro (91st, +42), Lars Kroes of Lake Placid (94th, +50), Nik Hamel of Saranac (95th, +51), Evan Dyke of Beekmantown (96th, +52), Ben Lloyd of Northeastern Clinton (97th, +56) AND Anthony Barcomb of Northeastern Clinton (99th, +66). ■

PLATTSBURGH | With a hit here and a hit there, Madrid-Waddington was able to chip away in the early innings to give themselves the cushion they would need to eliminate the Lake Placid Blue Bombers from the Class D regional finals June 2.

Five runs over the first three innings chased starter Jesse Izzo, while Shane Tiernan threw strong game for MadridWaddington in the 11-1 setback for the Bombers.

The Bombers best chance at runs came in the fourth inning when Collin Hayes battled off a foul ball on his fingers. After being checked out, Hayes connected on the Bombers first hit if the game and would come around to score the only run for the Bombers.

With two outs and two runners on in the same inning, Logan Brown drove a ball into the right-center field gap, but the official had called a stoppage due to a balk call.

Brown would eventually strike out but recorded a hit in his final at-bat.

Scott Sharlow helped his team stay close in relief until the seventh, when the Yellowjackets scored four times.

“They didn’t stop playing,” said coach Brian Brandes after

Strong Section VII field ready for track states

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

SARANAC | Section VII is hoping to send a strong field of competitors to Syracuse as they compete in the NYSPHSAA state championship meet this weekend.

Cameron Duffield of Saranac will lead the field to the meet, as he is one of the favorites in the 400 hurdles. He will also compete in the 110 hurdles and will join teammates Luke Maye, Marcus Baisi and Griffin Williams in the 4 x 400 relay event, where he will also be considered a favorite.

For Baisi, he will join the relay team along with earning spots at the state meet in the 100 and 400.

In the 4 x 800 relay, the combined EKMW

squad will represent the section after an exchange error led to a disqualification.

“All together we are running very well,” said Isaac Defelice. “In this race, I feel I should have pushed it more in the beginning. Now, however, we all get another opportunity in states and we will give it our all.”

Saranac’s Andrew LePage ran strong in the 1,600 for a second week, defeating Caleb Moore of Seton Catholic in the event.

“I felt good and was able to run about the same time,” LePage said. “It has been a lot of fun competing with him throughout high school.”

In the girls meet, Beekmantown’s Kirsten Villemaire had wins in the 800 and 4 x 100 relay, while teammate Alyssa Waters, in her first team on the team as a senior, will head to states in the 100 and 200.

“I had never done it so I decided to see what I could do,” Waters said. “I got a lot of pointers and help from my coaches to be able to compete was a great experience.”

Saranac Lake’s Madison Grimone had another standout performance, as she earned the win in the 400 hurdles, diving across the line and making up two spots, going from third seed to champion.

“It was an opportunity to go for states and compete with the best,” Grimone said.

“I knew I had two make up four seconds in seeding time, and I had to run hard and have no doubt. I had no idea I had won until my dad picked me up and said there you go kid.”

In another mild upset, Ticonderoga’s Sierra Stacy repeated her indoor track victory on the 1,500, earning her first trip to Syracuse.

the season was going to go, I would have not believed you,” Stacy said. “I got a lot of confidence from indoor, and I thought I could do it again. It was a very fast pace and that is what I like to run.”

Also for Ticonderoga, senior Meg McDonald finally earned her spot at the outdoor meet, tying the school record in the high jump at 5’2”, a mark she now shares with her aunt, Bridget McDonald Faucette.

“This is something that I have waited on a long time and it makes me very happy,” McDonald said. “My height was the goal for the day and it means a lot to me to have been working for so long and to keep the record in the family.”

The NYSPHSAA outdoor track and field state meet will be held June 8-9 at Cicero North High School in Syracuse. ■
