TUPPER LAKE — About 45 minutes had passed since the first wave of “Warrior Runners” jogged up and away from the lodge area at Big Tupper before Joe Merrihew rounded the corner, pausing to fire a paintball gun at a heavily-padded human target some 50 feet away. A minute later, he was crawling through a narrow set of culverts, his eventual exit preceded by a horde of flies disturbed by the Bloomingdale runner. But it wasn’t over yet — back up the mountain he went, 10 minutes away from an eventual wall climb and first-place finish in the 4th Annual Tupperpalooza Warrior Run on July 18. Hours passed before all of the 148 competitors completed the obstacle-littered, up-anddown mountain race course, ranging from Merrihew’s 54:47 to the final time of 3:05:28. “We don’t mess around with the elevation CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

LONG LAKE — While green may be the first thing that comes to mind when people think of the Adirondacks, these trees are streaked with gray. It’s well-established that the Adirondack Park faces a demographic dilemma. The region is expected to experience a 23 percent increase in people 65 and older between 2010 and 2020, a rate 15 percent greater than upstate as a whole. The same amount of young people aren’t replacing them. It’s a problem facing rural communities across the nation. But here in the Adirondacks, there are strong undercurrents of youthful activity seeking to reverse the tide — if the ingredients can come together. Last week, officials from virtually every sector from across the Adirondack Park gathered in Long Lake for the Common Ground Alliance, the ninth installment of the forum designed to overlook philosophical differences and come together to try to move the needle forward on sustainable public policy. It’s an approach that has fielded results, say officials, most notably when it comes to locking in funding for invasive species. Before the attendees broke off into their work groups, young people sounded off on their hopes, issues and challenges. Ross Whaley, the former Adirondack Park Agency CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

Governor Cuomo: “Tourism is serious business”
By Pete DeMola
pete@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — On a tranquil stretch of the Hudson River,
the sun burned bright overhead and highlighted a storybook natural landscape. Birds trilled from the surrounding forest as white-crested whorls broke upon the rocks in the cool slate-gray water. One after another, rafts of paddlers drifted by. It’s an experience Gov. Andrew Cuomo hopes all state residents will eventually come to appreciate, particularly New York City residents. The governor was in Indian Lake on Sunday for the third installment of an event series designed to draw attention to the Adirondack Park by pitting state lawmakers against each other in a series of athletic events — including whitewater rafting. As he suited up for his trip down the river, Cuomo asked reporters if they knew where the Hudson River originated. Mount Marcy in Keene, an alpine town some 300 miles north of New York City. “You can stay in a raft and end up in 96th Street in Manhattan,” Cuomo said. Originally billed as a race, the three-mile rafting trip down the Hudson is more of a tightly choreographed water ballet, with guides launching dignitary-filled rafts every minute down the sedate three-mile stretch. Cuomo put on a red life jacket and a blue helmet emblazoned with the state seal before hopping into a raft with Alphonso David, his counsel, and his two daughters. The group paddled into position and turned around. The governor said he’s been practicing his technique for the past nine months. “I think the ladies have an advantage — female power, that’s what we’re relying on,” said Cuomo. His daughter groaned: “Why are you giggling?” she asked. The governor jousted with officials as they walked their rafts down to the launch point, sizing up each one with a mischievous glint in his eye: “This boat is in trouble.” “There’s a lot of gray hair in this raft… a lot of wisdom.” They splashed him. He splashed back. “There’s the New York legislature,” he said to the raft con-
taining North Country reps Sen. Betty Little and Assemblyman Dan Stec. “Are we ready? Are we fired up?” He took off and disappeared around the bend. North Creek-area river guides said they’ve seen upticks in business since the state launched a sustained tourism push four years ago, including large investments in advertising, the development of new mobile apps and massive publicity events like the Adirondack Challenge, which always comes with a wave of publicity for a region that had historically complained about being overlooked. Becky Pelton, of North Creek Rafting Company, said it was huge for someone like New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg to take a trip down the river three years ago. That inspired a wave of new adventure seekers. “These were women in their 60s who never thought about getting on a raft before,” she said. Business is now booming, she said, including clients from India and China who booking trips. According to figures provided by the governor’s office, the Adirondack Park generated $1.29 billion in direct spending and $159 million in state and local taxes last year. The industry supports 21,203 jobs, or 17.9 percent of all employment in the region, and $590 million in labor income. Sen. Little said the growth in tourism is spurring the creation of new businesses, which are then fed and sustained by returning tourists. “We’re seeing new economic life here, not just in the tourism business, but interest in people coming here to start new businesses,” she said. Crucial to this are the regional economic development council funds that are handed down each year. The North Country has landed $338 million in state investment dollars since the initiative was launched four years ago. Local officials have identified tourism as one of the region’s top priorities. It’s a system that works, said Little, noting the $1.25 million investment to the Wild Center’s new outdoor exhibit, the Wild Walk. Last summer, the center never broke 1,000 visitors on any given day, said Little. But this year, daily attendance numbers CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

Regents approve Paul Smith’s College name change
The New York State Board of Regents has signed off on a proposal from Paul Smith’s College to add the name of a prominent donor to their official name.
By Pete DeMola
pete@denpubs.com PAUL SMITHS — Despite an immediate outcry following the announcement of a proposal by Paul Smith’s College to amend the school’s name with that of a prominent donor, the state Board of Regents formally approved the name change on Monday. Following final approval by the state court system, incoming freshman will now be attending the Joan Weill-Paul Smith’s College after the prominent philanthropist and fundraiser pledged a $20 million donation. Weill’s husband, Sanford, is the retired chairman of CitiGroup. The approval came four days after the school initially announced the change. Paul Smith’s President Cathy S. Dove thanked the Board of Regents in a statement. The school is hopeful, said Dove, that the court will agree that the college’s acceptance of the Weill family’s naming gift is “appropriate and best for the long-term future of the college.” Dove said the infusion will provide long-term stability for the school, which has faced financial uncertainty in recent years. “It will ensure that we can retain and promote the core values and academic experiences inspired by Phelps Smith’s gift and embodied by our students and faculty since 1946,” Dove said. In an open letter, the Board of Trustees voiced their support for Dove and for what they called a “transformational” pledge. The trustees said the school cannot serve the students or develop the college to meet future challenges solely through traditional college fundraising. “Joan’s support is not only instrumental, but critical to reaching the institution’s chartered goals by providing a much-needed cash infusion along with the benefit of the Weill family name,” read the letter. The funds, said the president, will be invested in current and new academic programs, additional scholarship support, some capital programs and attracting students from new markets, said Dove. Reaction on social media from students and alumni was swift and nearly unanimous in its criticism. Since Thursday, a Facebook group against the change has swelled to over 2,600 members. The cover image cites a quote from Phelps Smith, the son of the founder, who said that he would donate his estate on the condition that the institution be “forever known as ‘Paul Smiths College of Arts and Sciences.’” While most acknowledged they were appreciative of Weills’ contributions to the school — her name already adorns the library and student center — they also said that they believed the school was compromising their values exchange for a financial lifeline. Asked if the donation was contingent on naming the 69-year-old
institution, Dove said it was naming gift. “The trustees and I believe it is appropriate to recognize Mrs. Weill’s significant past and future support of the college,” wrote Dove in an email. Following Monday’s approval, students, faculty and parents immediately took to the school’s Facebook page to sound off. Stuart Hayes said current and incoming students should receive diplomas with the school’s original name. “I came as a Smitty, I want to leave as a Smitty,” he wrote, adding a number of open questions: “When do we hear how this money is being used?” he wrote, referring to outdated and rundown dormitories. “There’s been really no explanation on how this is going to drastically change the school besides kissing people off.” Others complained about the expedited timeline. Karleigh Jordan called it “unbelievable” that the school failed to solicit comments from alumni, students and parents prior to making the decision. “I chose to attend this college because of how it is portrayed, a wonderful and beautiful environmental college,” Jordan wrote. “If I continue to go here, I do not want my diploma to read her name. I understand we need the funds, but there are other ways.” Barry Good wrote while he was still somewhat disappointed, he accepted the change and hoped for continued prosperity of the school. “I have had and always will have the utmost respect and admiration for Professor Curt Stager [an educator, scientist and author employed by the college] who was instrumental (once again) in helping me see the light,” wrote Good. “You will have to forgive me, though. I will always refer to it as Paul Smith’s College.” The Board of Trustees acknowledged what they referred to as a “passionate reaction,” calling it a testament to the importance that their college experiences have had on their lives. Dove said they plan on holding a series of town hall meetings, both at the college and elsewhere, to discuss the change, including a meeting with alumni at this weekend’s reunion. Additional meetings will be held once students arrive on campus in a few weeks. Also underway is an update of the school’s strategic plan, a process trustees said is open to student, alumni, faculty and staff preparation.
Emerging priorities include increased scholarship funds for students, increased support for academic programs, investment in the physical upkeep of the college and investment in promoting the college globally to increase enrollment, read the letter. Dove said she wasn’t worried about blowback from in the form of reduced endowments from alumni: “Joan Weill is highly respected,” said Dove. “Having her name associated with our college sends a powerful message about our mission and the education we deliver. We fully expect that her visible engagement will encourage many others to consider supporting our college.”

Remember the history of the rebel flag 21st Century Cures Act is a Bold Plan to
G
ood riddance. The Confederate battle flag has been taken off the statehouse grounds in South Carolina. It’s been placed in a museum — where it belongs. Last month, Gov. Nikki Haley, R-South Carolina, called for the controversial banner to be removed from the statehouse grounds, following the killing of nine black people at a church in Charleston. The white man accused of the mass killing embraced the flag. “My hope is that by removing a symbol that divides us, we can move forward as a state in harmony and we can honor the nine blessed souls who are now in heaven,” Haley said. We applaud this decision to remove the divisive symbol from a very public place in the heart of the South. But let’s also use it as a time to take stock of where we are in the North Country. Spend a few hours driving down a country road and chances are you will see the stars and bars unfurled on a residence or two. The flag is seen by many as a sign of having a rebellious spirit. In popular culture, we have seen it displayed lightheartedly on the “Duke’s of Hazard” television show; Lynyrd Skynyrd and other musical artists have used it as well, conceivably meaning no harm. But don’t forget the history. To defend the flag as solely a commemoration of Confederate soldiers who died in the Civil War denies basic truths. It’s been used a rallying cry for segregation and white supremacist causes. The flag was put up on the Statehouse in the early 1960s as a sign of defiance against the Civil Rights Movement. It was removed from the capitol dome in 2000 as an agreement between those who had differing views of the flag’s symbolism, but controversy continued to boil over the placement of the banner. The Confederate battle flag’s popularity was also resurrected in part by segregationist Strom Thurmond of South Carolina. In 1948, Thurmond, who would serve as a governor and U.S. Senator during his long life, ran as a presidential candidate in support of “States’ Rights.” His run came after many southerners broke ranks with the Democratic Party, after a civil rights plank added at that year’s convention. Some defenders of the flag say its use keeps alive an important heritage of the South. But any thoughtful reading of history reveals that “heritage” is linked to a time when the United States was embroiled in a Civil War — which was fought over slavery. Haley said she understood people would disagree with the move to take down the banner, but argued it was in the best interest of South Carolina’s future. The statehouse belongs to all people — whether they be white, black or another race. In her well-reasoned argument, Haley seemed to acknowledge the debate would persist in private organizations and in neighborhoods throughout South Carolina. “We respect freedom of expression, and that for those who wish to show their respect for the flag on their private property, no one will stand in your way,” Haley said. While this publication wholeheartedly and vociferously defends every person’s right to free speech, we also recognize that just because someone has a right to display the flag, that doesn’t mean it’s a wise choice. That’s why it is terribly disheartening to see the flag raised in even one North Country yard or above even a solitary vehicle. Lest we forget the sacrifices borne by previous generations: The Civil War ravaged the United States with more troop bloodshed than any other conflict before or since, with an estimated 620,000 men perishing from death in combat or disease. The shocking violence and heartache it brought was deep and wide, in towns of all sizes across the country. Roughly one in every four soldiers who went into the Civil War would never make it back. Combat deaths and deaths by disease numbered approximately 38,000 in New York — more than any other state, according to research shared on the Civil War Trust’s website. For those who were lucky enough to return home, from the Civil War, they faced returning to lives in communities where they were unable to work in the jobs they had due to an array of health reasons. Those soldiers fought against troops who carried the Confederate flag. That is history worth remembering. Again, let’s take solace in the removal of the flag from the South Carolina statehouse grounds. — Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Letters to the Editor
Open letter to Donald Trump To the Editor: Dear Mr. Trump: Wow, you really have tried to stir up xenophobic enmity toward Mexican immigrants, legal and non-legal alike. But I don’t understand that while you were at it, you didn’t mention another group that commits a majority of crimes in the U.S.? Which group? White males. According to The Encyclopedia of Murder and Violent Crime, “Compared with assailants who kill but one victim, mass murderers are overwhelmingly likely to be male, [and] are far more likely to be white, and the numbers prove it.” So why, Mr. Trump, didn’t you take note of at least some of the white males who are (or were) mass murderers, serial killers, terrorists, mobsters, rapists? Here’s just quick sampling. It barely scratches the surface: John Dillinger, David Berkowitz, Albert de Salvo, Jim Jones, Ted Bundy, John Gacy, Caryl Chessman, Charles Manson, Ted Kaczynski, Eric Harris and Dylan Kliebold, Jeffrey Dahmer, Timothy McVeigh and John Nichols, Al Capone, John Gotti, James “Whitey” Bulger, Charles Ponzi, Adam Lanza, David Sweat and Richard Matt and Dylann Roof. But wait. What about all those white collar criminals? What about some of the executives of bailed out banks, that brought the economy cashing down, for example. Overwhelmingly white males. You never mentioned them. OK, a number of them got bonuses rather than criminals convictions, so I guess I shouldn’t mention them. And they may be your friends. Nevertheless you get my drift. What do you think we should do about white males in our country? Because they are U.S. citizens for the most part, of course we can’t simply send them back to the countries of their ancestors. We didn’t send Japanese Americans back to Japan during World War II. But we did incarcerate them in camps even though not one of them committed treason. So, how about putting all white males in encampments, at least until they repent? I know, I know, there are too many of them to do that, and besides, the richest among them are buying our government and our judges. So, Mr. Trump what would you do about white American males? Or rather, why don’t you stop negative stereotyping of Mexicans? And, just because I mention some white male criminals don’t start stereotyping white males either. Monique W . Clague, Keene

Warrior Run From page 1
gain,” said Adam Baldwin, the events coordinator for the Tupper Lake Chamber of Commerce. “We use a lot of our terrain as obstacles.” Baldwin, who competed in the race its first three years and organized it for the past two, has a background in the Spartan Race series, an even more intense take on a gruelling racing style that’s been growing in popularity in recent years. The Warrior Run — which Baldwin called “more of a dialed-down, local-friendly” take on such competition — was still no slouch. Billed as a 3.5 mile course, it’s actually closer to 4, with a dozen obstacles along the way, from the “Prison Break” fence to a treestandtype climb. And then there’s the mud: “Definitely thick and odoriferous,” explained Baldwin. “It was tough,” said Gregg Defeo of Chazy, a competitor who had just completed a similar themed Tough Mudder race a month ago. “I wasn’t ready for this, but it was a lot of fun.” Defeo was one of the scores of racers who stuck around after crossing the finish line, enjoying a post-race beer while the rock band Third Shift, and later Holographic Horse, jammed out on a trailer-turned-stage adjacent to the lodge. Keith Bender, of Stamford, Conn., took a break from contact work he’s doing in the area to do the race for the first time. Having done triathlons in Lake George in the past, he spoke highly of Tupper Lake’s muddier cousin of a race. “It was phenomenally well done,” Bender said in between an exchange of banter with another finisher. “Well-organized, nice family event.” Competitors spanned an age range of nearly 50 years, from Lake Clear’s 9-year-old Gabriella Sawa to a handful more in their 50s. About two-thirds of the racers tackled the course as a team, led by Tupper Lake’s Down N’ Dirty, whose top-three finishers — Mitchel Keniston, Mitch Harriman and Liam Lemere — averaged a 1:05.38 on the course. But the first seven were all going at it solo. Eighteen seconds after Merrihew crossed the finish line, Rochester’s Alex Izzo — looking the warrior part with a shoulder-covering tribal tattoo — capped off his second-place finish. The only other racer to get under the one hour mark was Saranac Lake’s Hailey Bitner, first among females and third overall. Sue Schofield (Tupper Lake), Kevin Karn (Buffalo), Alexander Dukette (Tupper Lake) and Ben Pokon (Lewis) finished fourth through seventh, respectively. Though many were clearly fatigued, warriors spoke highly of the third running of the Tupper Lake event. Team Shaheen’s IGA — Andrea Gerstenberger, Maureen Shaheen and Sophia Martin — Andrea Gerstenberger, of the Shaheen’s IGA team, called the Warrior Run a challenge that she’d do again — though perhaps with elbow pads next time around. Shaheen, whose husband, his brother and cousin co-own the namesake supermarket, had done the race before, learning this time around to complete the circuit in kneepads. “The cold water was refreshing,” laughed Shaheen as she and Gerstenberger recounted the highs (a chilly swim) and lows (the mud- and fly-filled culverts before yet another uphill climb) of the race. When told that another finisher considered the Warrior Run, with all its elevation gained and lost, tougher than the Tough Mudder he had done, the two beamed. Beside the race itself, the two touched on Tupper Lake and a growing sense of vitality in the village, evidenced in part by the scores of young people both in the mud and around town. Baldwin said the same, highlighting that the idea behind events like the Warrior Run or the Tupper Lake Tinman is to bring people to a town that’s become increasingly tourist-friendly. “That’s the path we’ve taken the last couple of years,” Baldwin said. “All of these events, we believe, really help our economy.” This year’s crowd, continued, was mainly from New York, though mixed within were competitors from Connecticut and, much further away, Dubai. In the coming years, Baldwin hopes, the race will begin to draw even more mud-trudgers from nearby states. “I think it has helped Tupper Lake a lot,” Gertenberger said. “You used to have to go to Lake Placid or out of the area for an event like this.”
Camping memories
I
love music and enjoy a little trivia. As the years roll by, though, many lyrics have escaped me like a slow leak in your car tire. When my busy head was searching for this week’s topic in the middle of the by Gordie Little night, one word stepped front and center: Camping. So, let’s talk camping. My troubled mind is more bizarre than that of the average bear. For some reason, it conjured up an old song that the vast number of my readers will not recollect. A few history buffs will be humming along with me, while the rest of you are left in the lurch. It’s called “Tenting Tonight” or “Tenting on the Old Camp Ground.” To set the record straight, it was written by a man named Walter Kittredge in 1863 and became popular with Union Army troops during the Civil War. My late mother had the sheet music crammed into the piano stool and we sat around singing it more than seventy years ago. That’s what families did after supper. It was a sad song about war and death and homesickness and all the rest. But, it stuck in my young memory and has remained there. My own tenting memories are far more pleasant and I’ll conjure up a few. As a young lad, my brother Jim and I joined our parents in traveling to campgrounds in Beacon, NY as well as all the way up from Westchester County to the Mooers Campground here in northern Clinton County. The old canvas Army tents on wooden platforms had a special odor that is hard to describe. And the services in what they called “the tabernacle” were full of fire and brimstone. Kaye and I have also tented with our family many times throughout our long relationship and marriage. I seem to recall spending a lot of time trying to waterproof the tent seams to keep rain water out. Once, at a campsite near Lake George, we went to sleep confident that the tent wouldn’t leak. That changed when I woke up a few hours later in a driving storm and felt for my trousers. They had soaked up about fifteen pounds of water. We scrambled into the SUV for the rest of the night. From there, it was pop-up campers and they were only slightly better. On one memorable occasion on Cape Cod, I was jolted awake to the sensation that I was falling and ended up in my BVDs on the ground after the metal supports gave out under the bed. The neighbors cheered. We spent over forty years at our all-time favorite place called Cole’s Creek on the St. Lawrence River between Massena and Waddington. Family, friends, music and marshmallows over open fires gave us magical memories enough for a lifetime. Over the past 30 years or so, we graduated to tow-behind hard-sided campers with many home comforts. The sunsets there rival those we enjoyed in Hawaii and we have thousands of photos to prove it. Friends from the Plattsburgh area and many from other counties, states and Canada joined us each year for two weeks in July. Campfire stories, long walks, games of dominoes and hundreds of good books to read. How can you beat that? While you are reading this, many of those same folks are camping at Cole’s Creek. We are not. It’s a lot of work preparing for the annual sojourn and we decided, after last year, to pack it in. We sold our truck and the camper and spend a lot of time reveling in the ambiance offered by our enclosed back deck along the beautiful Saranac River in Morrisonville. Do we miss camping? Sure thing. As a matter of fact. We’re visiting our family and friends on the St. Lawrence right now for a couple days while sleeping in a nearby motel. The times they are a changin’. Let’s all sing the tenting song: “We’re tenting tonight on the old camp ground, Give us a song to cheer Our weary hearts, a song of home And friends we love so dear.”

haven’t dipped below 1,200 since the Wild Walk was launched earlier this month. “That’s a real example of how state and local government can come together,” said Little. Inbound tourism to New York has jumped 16 percent in the past three years, noted the governor. “It is big business for the North Country,” said Cuomo, adding that the state will double the advertising budget in New York City, including a campaign in August that will target some 700 buses. The governor also announced a new instant win scratch-off ticket designed to further promote tourism to the state’s scratchers by offering up to 15 trips to one of New York’s five destination regions, including the Adirondacks. Getting people to the Adirondack Park is just a matter of exposure, said Cuomo.

Section VII baseball, softball players get All-State nod By Andrew Johnstone
andrew@denpubs.com SECTION VII — The New York State Sportswriters Association released its All-State Softball and Baseball teams recently, with just over a dozen of Section VII athletes getting the nod. Beekmantown’s Justin Stevens and Lake Placid’s Chris Williams both earned Second Team honors, the highest of any player in the section this spring. Stevens was a .521 batter for the Class B runner-up Eagles, including three home runs, while Williams’ 5-2 re-
cord on the mound was good for half of the Blue Bombers’ 10 wins this season. Plattsburgh, Beekmantown, Peru and Lake Placid each placed a pair of players on the baseball All-State teams and Ticonderoga one. Northern Adirondack, despite its Class C title, was absent in the voting. Softball, meanwhile, only saw four gain All-State honors, led by Ticonderoga pitcher Hannah Ross’ Third Team selection. Astasia Myler made Fourth Team in Class D while Madalyn Tucker (Northeastern Clinton) and Tori Trim (Saranac) made sixth and sev-

enth, respectively, in Class B. Trim helped the Lady Chiefs to regionals this June, giving up just one run in a loss to eventual state champion Ichabod Crane. Trim was 19-5 in the circle this season, tossing 232 strikeouts on her way to a 1.34 ERA. Trim also joined Brette Campbell and Summer Gillespie as the three Saranac batters to go over .400 at the plate. The Lake Placid softball team joined Northern Adirondack baseball as the only other Section VII champion not to place any athletes on an AllState team.

chair who is one of the event’s organizers, hoped their insights would resonate throughout the day as attendees hashed out their proposals and ideas, which would later be condensed into a twopage brief and zipped off to state lawmakers, many of whom were in the audience. “Everywhere you go, people are talking about young people,” said Chris Morris, who works with the Adirondack Foundation. “It’s really important for rural communities to continue to try to sustain them and build the future.” COMMUNITY AND CAREER Natasha Bristol grew up in Saranac Lake before moving to Philly to study illustration. But it wasn’t the type of place she wanted to plant roots. The Adirondacks called. But Bristol needed two things before she relocated with her new husband: Community and career. “It’s always been a challenge for young people coming back to wrap their heads around,” said Bristol. She found the community aspect in Saranac Lake, where the volunteer opportunities and local food movement appealed to her. Then came the job at Adworkshop, the Lake Placid-based marketing agency. Communities thrive when like-minded residents get established and then open the doors to other people, said Bristol. “Bring it on, bring it back and bring it forward.” Hannah Gibbons has a similar story. While she’s not a North Country native like Bristol, Gibbons spent the summers in Old Forge before making the decision to relocate here. After graduating from SUNY ESF, Gibbons landed a job as an intern at Great Camp Sagamore and is now the facility’s program manager. The job is a great fit that ties together history, cultural and environmental issues, she said. Gibbons, 26, lives in Long Lake with her partner, who teaches English in Tupper Lake. They’re now trying to immerse themselves in the local community and trying to meet more like-minded people. How can the community be more welcoming? Continued revitalization efforts that will keep communities humming along with year-round diverse economies. “Revitalization of small town economies is huge,” said Gibbons. “There’s definitely a push going on that’s noticeable in Tupper Lake.” This, in turn, will ensure sustainability of local schools, said Gibbons. GRASSROOTS One resource for George has been the Tri-Lakes Young Professionals, which holds regular meetings to discuss initiatives and challenges.
Lake Placid resident Marc Galvin addresses attendees at the Common Ground Alliance forum in Long Lake on Wednesday, July 15. Young people want to stay in the Adirondack Park, said a panel of young professionals. It’s just a matter of providing opportunities and keeping communities vibrant. “It’s amazing to see the amount of young people in their 20s and 30s getting together,” said George. Marc Galvin, 39, cited a group that meets in Lake Placid each month to discuss the challenges facing the community as a generation of movers and shakers begins to ease out of the business world. Galvin, a Syracuse native who owns the Bookstore Plus with his wife, said the group is trying to work with a lot of different initiatives to maintain Lake Placid’s future. “A good core of young professionals,” he said. “I can see that as making a positive impact in the near future.” Morris, the Adirondack Foundation staffer, acknowledged it’s true that young people in rural areas like the Adirondacks have been moving at a greater rate than coming back. But it’s a fact that people tend to bemoan instead of looking at possible solutions. Old Forge, Saranac Lake and Lake Placid are becoming small hotbeds of youthful activity. “I think we need to look at what’s working there and understand why those people are choosing to live in those communities,” said Morris, noting that small businesses constituted their backbones. Both Whaley and Morris noted their absence — due to busy summertime schedules — at today’s forum alongside another invaluable cohort of young people who are galvanizing communities across the North Country. Young farmers.
