Patakis chat with their neighbors An Essex farm has worked out well for the former governor By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER
ESSEX | Former Gov. George Pataki likes to say his Essex farm is his sanctuary, that is to say “a politics-free zone.” His neighbors have no problem with that. At a benefit for the Belden Noble Memorial Library, the Pataki family, which owns a working farm just south of town, participated in a “Getting to Know Your Neighbors” series last week, and nary a question from the audience involved the fireworks currently consuming the nation’s capital. Instead, the packed house wanted to know about his horses, his luck with growing wheat, the water quality of Lake Champlain and — a small town being a small town — what could be done to lower the speed limit in the picturesque waterfront community on the Adirondack Coast. Pataki, his wife Libby, son Owen and daughter-in-law Emily casually chatted about their background, what they find appealing about Essex and their future plans. George, who ran unsuccessfully for the Republican nomination in 2016, raises Angus beef cattle, but says he wants a couple of Jerseys as soon as he can talk Libby into milking. » Pataki Cont. on pg. 5

Hillside Cemetery, burial ground to prominent citizens, at risk of abandonment
Westport Cemetery Association looking for civic boosters By Pete DeMola EDITOR
WESTPORT | Mother Nature will have her way. While Hillside Cemetery is well-maintained, sinkholes, tombstones toppled by creeping roots and bank erosion have all led to mounting concerns at the tree-lined burial ground on Main Street. The cemetery, which saw its first internment in 1808, is the eternal resting place for some of the town’s most prominent citizens,
including John Tyler Cutting, who served a single term in Congress from 1891-93. There’s John Halstead, who built the village’s first home at the top of Dock Hill, and Barnabas Myrick, an early merchant and town supervisor. The Lee Family, early business leaders known for their philanthropic and business efforts, occupy a slice of real estate in the southeast corner, a shady expanse blanketed by pine needles. Numerous veterans starting with the Revolutionary War are also here, as are early settlers, many of whose descendants continue to reside in the lakefront community two centuries later. But while rich in history, the cemetery is at the risk of becoming financially insolvent. “We have not been able to meet the financial needs on just having lawn care, so we were concerned we would have to abandon (the cemetery) in the near future,” said Westport Cemetery As-
sociation (WCA) President Derinda Sherman.
DIMINISHED INCOME
At aging cemeteries like Hillside, income has dried up. With an estimated 300 graves, the cemetery is full, but remains active, interring those with pre-purchased plots. Cemeteries have traditionally derived income from the sale of burial space, interment fees and investment income, the interest from which is set aside for perpetual and current maintenance funds. But compounded with low interest rates, rural officials are now questioning how they will be able to perform even basic maintenance on the properties. Despite the challenges, sites still must be kept open and maintained. The WCA is now embarking on fundraising
efforts to ensure not only repairs can be made, but to prevent the cemetery from being abandoned. Once abandoned, towns are legally required to take cemeteries over, according to state law. But their oversight is minimal. Localities must mow three times per year, but are not required to repair or otherwise take an active role in their upkeep from keeping annual paperwork and overseeing internments. Th e state acknowledges the future of rural cemeteries presents a slow-burning problem for localities. “The increase in cremations, use of mausoleums, shifts in aging population away from New York state, and aging of the volunteer caretakers of New York’s cemeteries have altered the financial and operational impacts upon cemeteries,” wrote the state Office of General Counsel in a legal memorandum. » Cemetery Cont. on pg. 2

Kim and Reggie Harris join us “On the Center Lawn” on Tuesday, July 31! At 6 p.m., Kim and Reggie present “Music and the Underground Railroad.” Kim and Reggie highlight one of By Arin Burdo the most fascinating chapters of • COLUMNIST • American history with songs, stories and audience involvement, entertaining all ages.

Add their infectious ability to encourage participation and laughter with songs from original and “borrowed sources” and Kim and Reggie create an atmosphere that makes audiences relax, sing and celebrate! Stay for the Harris’ folk and gospel concert at 7 p.m. Consummate musicians and storytellers, Kim and Reggie Harris combine a strong folk and gospel legacy with a solid background in classical, rock, jazz and pop music. Creative curiosity, years of road and stage experience and interactions with performers such as Pete Seeger, Ysaye Barnwell, Jay Leno, Tom Paxton, Bernice Johnson Reagon, Harry Belafonte and others, has led them to produce music that entertains and inspires. Audiences at venues such as The Kennedy Center, The Brooklyn Academy of Music, The Smithsonian Institute, the Reunion Arena in Texas, the Psalm Festival in Graz, Austria—along with numerous theatre arts centers, festivals, universities and schools—have given this inspiring duo standing ovations for their vibrant performances. “I’ve known Kim and Reggie Harris for decades and no one…and I mean no one…gets it, does it, moves it, uplifts it, and entertains and empowers us all at the same time. I walk a little prouder knowing them,” said John McCutcheon, six-time Grammy nominee and Green Bay Packer co-owner. From 6:30-7 p.m. on Tuesdays, prior to concert, the writers’ group that meets at the Elizabethtown Social Center will hold a series of readings of their works.

» Cemetery Cont. from pg. 1 Localities, already struggling to maintain services, are reluctant to take on an additional mandate. “It’s a burden that no town wants,” Sherman said. Following their abandonments, the Town of Westport now maintains Hoisington, Stevenson and White cemeteries. “If we can work together to maintain (cemeteries), it’s better than the town taking them over altogether,” said Westport Supervisor Michael “Ike” Tyler. The town’s highway department has helped maintain Hillside and sister cemetery Black River with help from inmate labor. “We’re very appreciative of their cooperation,” Sherman said.
CHEERLEADERS WANTED
The Westport Cemetery Association is launching a fundraising campaign to ensure Hillside Cemetery remains solvent.
Stakeholders would now like to ignite a sense of community spirit to aid upkeep and even restoration efforts. The WCA will host a cemetery tour on Aug. 4, which will be followed by a scavenger hunt and a reception at the Heritage House Visitor Center from 5 to 7 p.m. “We’re hoping to draw attention from people,” Sherman said, “and to have fun and learn more about history.” A second event, a fundraiser and silent auction, is scheduled for Aug. 17 at 5 p.m. at the Westport Hotel.

Cobb, navigating bumpy road, eschews campaign negativity Democratic nominee not dissuaded by attacks, setbacks By Pete DeMola EDITOR
LAKE PLACID | It’s been a bruising summer so far for Tedra Cobb. The strategic consultant and former legislator emerged victorious as the Democratic nominee for New York’s 21st Congressional District in a five-way primary last month. But the honeymoon was non-existent. Republicans immediately launched an attack on Cobb’s voting record, affixing her with the Trumpian nickname Taxin’ Tedra, and the candidate continues to navigate the fallout following the release of a secret recording that captured her telling teens she cannot publicly endorse a ban on assault weapons because doing so would make her unelectable in the district. “Am I dissuaded? No. Am I surprised? No,” Cobb told The Sun. “Do I think people want that kind of negativity? No.” Cobb served two terms on the St. Lawrence County Legislature, facing a total of nine opponents. “I have never run a negative campaign,” she said. “I have run respectfully. I have run with integrity, and I have always talked about the issues that we face. I will continue to do so.”
HEALTH CARE FOCUS
‘FIERCELY INDEPENDENT REGION’
Cobb ultimately dispatched four primary opponents at the ballot box in the year-long Democratic primary contest, which saw as many as 10 hopefuls enter the fray. While she carved out a 56 percent victory — racking up more votes than the rest of the field put together — the prolonged contest saw Cobb burn through nearly all of

Cobb spoke to The Sun at the Common Ground Alliance forum in Lake Placid on Thursday, where the candidate spent the morning attending small-group work sessions designed to crack some of Adirondacks’ hardest nuts, including how to attract young people to the remote region and address gaping workforce development issues. Numerous passerby approached the candidate with wellwishes as she attempts to deny Rep. Elise Stefanik, .a Republican, a third term in this fall’s general election. . her Asked about her plans for the summer, Cobb said reason for entering the race remains as it did a year. ago, with health care occupying a central focus. “Businesses can’t expand when their employees don’t. have health care,” said Cobb. . Cobb said she and her husband, who owns a solar panel installation business, would be able to hire another employee . if they were relieved of health care burdens. Premiums have escalated by double-digits this year, and the candidate has publicly circulated letters from her .insurance company revealing the rate hikes can be directly be attributed to the repeal of the individual mandate as part . of the Republican tax bill. Hospitals, nursing homes and clinics also operate on a “razor-thin margin,” she said, and many would have closed if efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act last summer had proven to be successful. “And so that’s the reason I got in the race a year ago,” Cobb said. “That’s the thing I’m still talking about.” Cobb is also seeking to bolster support through the creation of a new ballot line, CD 21 Unites. Lynn Kahn is running as the Green Party candidate.

her $453,302 war chest, leaving her with just $93,000 four months ahead of the general election. Stefanik reported nearly $1.6 million cash-on-hand earlier this week. Democrats are pining for a “blue wave” to flip the House, but Beltway prognosticators like the Cook Political Report have ranked the district “Solid Republican.” The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said the race continues to be on their radar, but they have not committed any resources. “It remains on our battlefield and one we’re actively watching,” Amanda Sherman, a DCCC spokesman, said on Friday. “But no funding decisions have been made.” Cobb didn’t appear to be bothered at the fundraising disadvantage, noting Conor Lamb, a Democrat, won an open Pennsylvania House seat in a special election earlier this year despite being outspent 8 to 1. “He was the right candidate with the right communication and the right vision,” said Cobb, who pointed out her decisive victory and positive outlook. “I have been reaching out to independents and Republicans and others,” Cobb said. “We are a fiercely independent region.” ■ — This story has been abridged for print.

Things to consider before pet adoption Have you been considering adding a furry friend to your family? Adopting a cat or dog is exciting and rewarding. Pets can teach you about love, loyalty, healthy By Kathy Wilcox living and responsibility. • COLUMNIST • Here are a few things to keep in mind when making this very important decision: • Your abilities, desires and resources — what you can offer and what you are looking for in a pet. • The amount of time and effort you want to invest in training and overall care. Younger animals typically require a lot more attention, and dogs require more general care than cats. • Your experience level as a pet owner. Cats are generally excellent first-time pets for inexperienced pet owners. Some animals come to the shelter with excellent manners and will easily blend into almost any home, other animals may need socialization and house training. Our shelter staff are always available to help you select the best companion animal for your individual situation and lifestyle. Please don’t hesitate to ask them any questions!
Our featured pet this week is KILEY, a pretty black-and-white Terrier-mix who came to us quite ill with internal parasites. We immediately treated her and this little lady has quickly turned around. She is now healthy, happy and ready to move on to a forever home! Kiley can be shy at first but this happy girl is absolutely delightful once she is familiar with you. Kiley is not fond of other dogs and probably should be an “only child.” Please come meet her today. ■ — Kat Wilcox’s weekly column works to publicize the shelter’s adoptable pets.

Osbourne to stay on as ELCS super Osborne OKed to serve through June 2023 By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
ELIZABETHTOWN | The Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School (ELCS) Board voted unanimously last month to extend the contract of school Superintendent Scott Osborne. His current contract is set to expire on June 30, 2020. The extension sustains his leadership through June 2023. “Our school district has been moving in a very positive direction, and we’re supportive of Mr. Osborne’s vision,” school board president Karin DeMuro said in a statement announcing the decision made with unanimous board support. “We’d like to promote stability to continue this forward movement and he’s a huge part of that.” The board’s vice president, Doug Spilling, said Osborne will help the district face budget challenges expected in the coming years. “Mr. Osborne will help us overcome those challenges as well as choose the right opportunities. The potential merger with Westport Central School is a great example where we need Mr. Osborne’s strong leadership,” Spilling said. Osborne began working as school superintendent here in October 2012, having served as principal at ELCS from 2007 to 2009. From 2009 to 2012, he served Peru Central School District as the primary school principal. The Sun asked Osborne what he sees ahead for ELCS and to reflect on the unique charge of rural public school education. “We’ve done well to add programs at ELCS in the last few years by way of grant opportunities,” he said. “We need to use those opportunities, as our budget doesn’t afford a lot of flexibility to bring a new program to school

on our own. If we did that, the burden on the tax levy would be immense.” ELCS’ pre-K collaboration with ACAP — the “Early Bridges Program” — has been a huge success, Osborne said. “We plan to apply to the state for an expansion grant in order to serve more children. This past year, we helped 20 children become more ready for kindergarten, and our partnership with ACAP is essential.” Health and Wellness grant monies have also brought in new programs for ELCS students. “We’ve expanded health and wellness at our school by way of the Creating Healthy Schools and Communities Grant, bringing new hydration stations, mountain bikes for physical education, and a grab-and-go breakfast cart to our school.” Recently ELCS submitted application materials to the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) program, which would allow the school to offer free breakfast and lunch to every single student, every single day, for the next four years, Osborne said. “We’re hoping to be approved shortly so we can plan for serving more food to our students next year.” ELCS is also looking to add a tuition option for out-of-district families. Currently, there is no provision for tuitionbased access for students who live outside Elizabethtown or Lewis, other than for children of teachers or staff. “Later this summer, I intend to recommend to the school board that ELCS consider a policy that would allow non-
resident students to enroll at ELCS for a tuition. We feel that we’ve demonstrated strong improvement to our programs and services in the last six years, and we can offer a fantastic education to non-resident students, particularly for parents who might commute into the county seat for employment. We can offer space in our grade levels for a very nominal tuition cost.” Asked if he was concerned about budget planning challenges ahead, Osborne said he was quite concerned. It is a major reason why he feels it’s important for the community to consider the advantages of a district merger with Westport Central. “Together we could offer more quality to our students and raise the bar for all children in both communities. Earlier this spring I published a report called ‘Planning for the Future’ showing the financial outlook for our school, given the current trends.” As for the unique qualities of rural education, Osborne pointed to individuation with small class sizes. “Smaller class sizes create a much more personalized environment for building relationships among students and staff,” he said. “This also means that every student may have a greater opportunity to participate in a variety of learning and extracurricular activities.” Necessity, he said, is the mother of invention. “The small size of rural schools and communities like Elizabethtown and Lewis create opportunities — and often the need — for innovation that are not available to urban schools. Because of limited access to outside resources, things get created, repaired, and accomplished in ingenious ways, people really come together and they rally. I’m proud to be a part of that!” Closing in on a decade of work with the district, Osborne said measurable gains are evident. “I’m grateful to the board and community for their trust; I very much enjoy being a part of this school community and the larger educational community in Essex County. We have more great things to come in the years ahead.” ■

The Pataki family, Owen, George, Libby and Emily, field questions from their neighbors at the library in Essex. Photo by Tim Rowland
» Pataki Cont. from pg. 1 Libby did not seem to think that day is terribly close at hand, although she allowed that she tries to be fair about animal accommodations. “She got horses, I got chickens — that doesn’t sound fair to me,” George quipped in reply. Both George and Libby grew up on farms, George in Peekskill, Libby in France.
George, a Republican, served three terms as governor, and as he travelled around the state, in the back of his mind he was always looking for a community that his family could call home. Along with an agricultural fabric, the Patakis said they wanted to be on the water in a community with a strong sense of history. “The people here have done such a tremendous job of protecting that history,” George said. “The people of Essex have made it a community that is so unique and so wonderful.”
George also said a key factor in their decision to buy a farm in Essex was the town’s location within the Adirondack Park. “It’s protected so you know that the beautiful scenery isn’t going to end up with 4,000 condos.” George, who speaks five languages, said he’s currently working for a global law firm that’s good enough not to ask him to do any legal work, Instead, he travels the globe building relationships and matching ideas to capital. “I’m just having fun” he said. “This is our happy place,” added Libby. “Whenever we would buy or sell a farm, we wound up moving a little further north, and finally we hit the jackpot.” As governor, George helped heal the open wounds of Sept. 11, and was considered to be a good steward of the environment. He briefly ran for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination, but withdrew before the primaries. “I don’t miss politics,” he said in response to a question from the audience. “But I do miss Friday, July 27th – Tuesday, July 31st the ability to solve problems.” 3D The “Get to Know Your 3D Mission: Impossible Neighbor” series continues at Fallout (RealD 3D) (PG13) the library on the first Thurs12:15PM • 6:15PM day the month through De3D cember.

WESTPORT | With patriotic fanfare, the Essex County Fair is ready for its 170th year. This year the grounds will deliver “Red, White and Blue: This Fair’s for You,” a theme celebrating Americana. Fair Director Bridget Brown was excited to announce some unique additions to an expanding slate of events, beginning with Opening Night Fireworks on Aug. 15. “And then Thursday night, Aug. 16, we will be having a Monster Truck show, and we’re excited about that,” she told The Sun as planning heads into final weeks after nearly a year’s worth of work.

Another day The Sun Editorial at The Sun Common Ground Alliance sets
I was told many years ago when I first joined the industry that once you get ink in your veins by working at a news By Dan Alexander organization, nothing • PUBLISHER • else really comes close in comparison. The days and weeks seem to fly by with one deadline after another. Projects, events and the people we serve keep each day brimming with both the unexpected challenges and rewarding opportunities the keeps one’s interest peaked. No two days ever seem to be same despite the repetitious nature of our work. What makes what we do so interesting are the people we come in contact with each day. Readers, advertisers, co-workers, vendors, suppliers, elected officials, government employees, law enforcement as well as lawbreakers, postal workers, truck drivers, delivery personnel, non-profit groups, school officials, teachers, candidates, clergy, military, and other publication personnel. You name the field, and we have a connection sooner or later that puts us in close contact with folks from all walks of life. Some of the encounters are rewarding, while others can be heartbreaking. We deal with happy folks, downright angry folks, some who are scared facing life-changing events, or others who’ve lost a loved one. There are days when we aren’t always sure what planet some folks are from, and then there are those days when we aren’t sure what planet we are from, but wished we were there. Reaching out to over 70,000 homes each week puts us in contact in a unique way with connections throughout the North Country region. Through it all, we get a front row seat that is one of the best viewing portals of life in our community, around the region, the state, nation, and world one could imagine. Every week we start with nothing but blank pages knowing that there are hundreds of thousands of stories happening all throughout the vast region we cover and despite our best efforts we know we will barely scratch the surface telling but a few of those stories. Perhaps that’s why the days and week fly by, as we no sooner put one issue to bed and we are in hot pursuit of the next important story that needs to be reported. In the end, it’s always filling the pages of The Sun and getting the product into your hands that keeps us sane, and on an even keel. Despite the many ups and downs we may face in a week, we are honored to do it all for you. ■

good example for leadership We encountered a fleeting phenomenon last week: Civil discussion. It was almost uncanny. Hundreds of people from across the Adirondacks gathered at the Lake Placid Golf Club House to discuss some of the most pressing issues facing the region, including workforce development, overuse in the High Peaks and the perennial question of how to attract young people to sustain our struggling communities. There were no screaming matches, hurt feelings, fistfights or resentful diatribes. Twenty years ago, some of these people wouldn’t have been caught dead sitting across from one another (and would have been ostracized by their peers if they had, one attendee wryly remarked). It’s easy to scoff at some of the soaring rhetoric coming out of this year’s Common Ground Alliance, but the annual event is an exercise in what can be possible once people

To the Editor: Elections have consequences. Our president, the man elected to protect us, our country and the constitution keeps siding with our adversary, a former KGB agent, while discrediting our intelligence community and degrading our allies. Let that sink in. He sided with a person that Trump’s own agencies say meddled in the 2016 election. It’s time to recognize that Putin controls Trump, for reasons we can only speculate, and that Trump has hijacked the Republican Party. Thus, Putin has influence over Republicans, seven of whom visited Putin the week before Trump’s summit. The party that claims to be so patriotic has chosen partisanship over patriotism. What can we do? What am I doing? Instead of getting involved in the rumors and rhetoric on social media that is dividing this nation, I am getting involved.

set aside their egos and agendas and come together for the common good. The result is a fascinating intellectual laboratory that has tangible, measurable results, stakeholders say. Common Ground, for instance, has been credited by state officials for planting the seed for many current policies — including some of the overuse safeguards implemented by the state Department of Environmental Conservation earlier this month in the wake of the region’s explosion in popularity as a tourist destination. Other discussion topics at this year’s installment included how to navigate climate change, how to best balance recreational opportunities with new state land acquisitions and the challenges facing vacation destinations. Following small group sessions, attendees were required to craft at least one concrete legislative solution to present for future consideration. Stakeholders then briefed attendees on their action items.
from now on for every election, no matter how frustrated I get. I hope you will join me. We have the opportunity this November to change our representative in Congress from someone who votes the party line to someone who shows that she cares about our area, listens to us, and who loves democracy. In the words of the great Yogi Berra, “It ain’t over till it’s over.” Join me: vote. - Liz Bollt, Potsdam ■
Appreciative of Stefanik’s cosponsorship of truck bill
To the Editor: On Tuesday, May 15, I met with Joel Wood the regional director for Rep. Elise Stefanik (RWillsboro) about bill H.R. 2946, the repeal of federal excise tax (FET) on the sale of new trucks. Joel had done his homework before meeting with me as his step father is in the trucking business. We reviewed why the current 12 percent FET is hurting the business owners and the sale of new trucks as well as how it is not encouraging truck owners to move to purchase new cleaner burning and safer trucks.

Tension underpins all relationships in the Adirondack Park. Our communities must balance environmental protection with economic growth. We must navigate the fault line between those advocating for a regional approach for promotion and development versus those committed to retaining their parochial fiefdoms. Local officials grapple regularly with state bureaucracy, while the schism between tourists and full-time residents characterizes any vacation community. But attendees acknowledged in order to move the needle forward on these issues, they need to work together. The refreshing model offered by Adirondack North Country Association and the Adirondack Foundation should be emulated statewide and at the national level, where lawmakers and the White House continue to be entrenched in toxic political warfare to the detriment of everyone but themselves. — The Sun Editorial Board ■
After our meeting, Joel toured our dealership and met some of our employees. Joel called me the afternoon of May 22 to let me know he had reviewed the information I had given him along with all the notes of our meeting with Congresswoman Stefanik and he was happy to report that the congresswoman has agreed to sign on as a cosponsor of this important bill. As of July 19, there are 22 bipartisan cosponsors that have signed on to this important bill and there is also a bill (S. 3052) that has also been introduced into the Senate. We would like to thank Congresswoman Stefanik for her forward thinking to help truck owners and dealers as well as helping to promote cleaner and safer trucks on our highways. - Randy E. Clark, Plattsburgh ■

the help that is being offered. My department heard the request for manpower and equipment for Monday, July 16, so we worked to get a crew together that was able to have the day off from work. I have Mondays off. It is the only day my wife and I have off together, but I was willing to give it up to help the community. After coordinating everyone and notifying Clinton County OES of the equipment and personnel we had available and that we could only be available onscene until 4 p.m., we were told to be there for 7 a.m. Due to the shortage of volunteers, many of us do many tasks and several that were going to volunteer needed to be at an important budget meeting at 6:30 p.m., hence only being available until 4 p.m. This still was providing volunteers for at least a nine-hour shift in the summer July heat. We were notified late Sunday night that if we could not be on scene for the full duration till 7 p.m. or 8 p.m. then we would not be needed. This was disappointing for the volunteers who changed their schedule to help. What made it worse, is on Monday evening they put out a request for help for Tuesday. » Letters Cont. on pg. 7 This free community newspaper exists to serve the informational needs of the community and to stimulate a robust local economy.

Fighting back against the opioid epidemic In 2016, over 3,600 New Yorkers died of an opioid overdose. In some counties in our congressional district, overdose fatalities have doubled and tripled in recent years. By Rep. Elise Stefanik We see the harmful effects heroin • GUEST COLUMNIST • and opioids have on our communities almost every day when we open the local paper. Since arriving in Congress, I have prioritized combating this tragic epidemic. I have met and visited with many of the local organizations focused on this crisis. I toured St. Joseph’s Addiction Treatment and Recovery Center’s outpatient clinic in Malone and their inpatient and veterans program in Saranac Lake. I have met with organizations including the Alliance for Better Communities in Watertown, and I have kicked off a constructive roundtable with the Essex County Heroin and Opioid Prevention Coalition (ECHO). I have brought together stakeholders on all sides of the issue — from law enforcement to those in recovery — for roundtables and meetings to discuss the path forward. In my first year in Congress, I joined the Bipartisan Heroin Task Force to focus on federal policy solutions. Our legislative approach has been comprised of four pillars: prevention, treatment and recovery, protecting communities and fighting fentanyl — the most widely used synthetic opioid. In my first term in office, we successfully advanced two major initiatives to combat this epidemic that were signed into law. The Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act — a » Letters Cont. from pg. 6 We again coordinated a group who got permission to use time off from work to go help and when called with our availability, were told we were not needed. People wonder why there is a lack of volunteers for many things today, it is because of being treated like this that people stop volunteering. - Jeremy DuMont, Merrill ■
Thurman board members need to grow up or be replaced
To the Editor: Wouldn’t it be great if a couple living in Thurman could bring their middle-school aged children to town meetings? They start at 6:30 p.m. That’s early enough so that after calm discussion of routine business, future leaders could get to know the adults who run their town. This month, after learning of the unsafe conditions at the youth building and playground, they might have been reassured to hear from the board member in charge of maintenance that he was concerned enough to address the matter quickly. That would have been the case last year. But this is 2018. Those of us who care about
landmark bill that made major investments to promote treatment and recovery from opioids. In fact, this bill recently made two grants available to the Massena Drug Free Community Coalition and the Alliance for Better Communities in Jefferson and St. Lawrence Counties. We also passed the 21st Century Cures Act, a major reform to our healthcare delivery system that advances research into developing better recovery treatments, helps customize patient recovery programs, and included significant funding to New York state to respond to the opioid epidemic. In total, I have supported over $4 billion in federal funding to invest in the fight against opioid abuse. But this fight is ongoing, in our communities and in the halls of Congress. Just recently, I helped lead the effort to pass dozens of bipartisan bills to continue providing solutions and resources to communities across the nation. One major comprehensive initiative we passed is the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act. This legislation expands access to improved treatment and recovery services, encourages non-addictive opioid alternatives for pain management and improves data that will help at-risk patients, and gives law enforcement tools and federal resources to get dangerous drugs out of our communities. Included in this bill are important measures that will aid the fight in the North Country as well. For instance, one provision will offer student loan repayment of up to $250,000 for participants who agree to work as substance use disorder treatment profes-
Thurman are praying for miracles, wanting very much not to have to keep counting the months until three of our board members can be replaced. I hope I speak for a lot of others when I say that it would be great if these individuals, and the others who refuse to act conscientiously on what they see and hear, would suddenly decide to check out the facts for themselves instead of just believing what others tell them. Then maybe they’d reverse the decisions that have made the simple tasks, such as bill paying with money that’s already in the budget, all but impossible. Fellow Thurmanoles [sic], if today’s middle schoolers are to partake of and contribute to the well being of their own self-governing town as adults. We have to be strong enough to do what’s in the public interest, even if certain individuals don’t like it. If they refuse to grow up, we have to replace them! - Debbie McIlrath, Athol ■
Inaccuracy clouds abortion debate
To the Editor: I would like to thank you for printing Raynard Corrow’s letter in the July 14 issue of The Sun. Your paper has provided me with an opportunity to help close a door on an inaccu-
sionals in areas of the nation most in need, particularly rural areas like the North Country. This will increase crucially needed treatment capacities in our district. And as the home of more veterans than any congressional district in New York, I am pleased this bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to hire Veterans Justice Outreach specialists to ensure that our veterans don’t fall into the criminal justice system due to struggles with opioid abuse and addiction, PostTraumatic Stress Disorder, or mental illness. This comprehensive bill also includes updates to Medicaid and Medicare to give these important healthcare programs added tools to fight opioid abuse. There is no one silver bullet to tackle this issue and this fight will be ongoing across our communities. I will work to ensure that community organizations such as ECHO, the Alliance for Better Communities in Jefferson County, the Substance Abuse Prevention and Recovery of Clinton County, and others in our region have the resources they need to bring education and recovery resources to as many North Country residents as possible. We know our neighborhoods and communities best in the North Country, and some of the most effective strategies come from our local advocates. If you have ideas and feedback about how best to tackle this problem, I encourage you to contact me by visiting stefanik.house.gov or calling any of my offices. Together, we can eradicate opioid addiction and help North Country families lead happy, healthy lives. ■ — Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) represents New York’s 21st Congressional District
rate and belligerent claim that unfortunately dominates the abortion rights narrative. Raynard provides a statement that illustrates a fundamentally misleading assumption surrounding the abortion debate often disseminated by fervent opponents. Specifically I draw attention to the statement that appears in the letter’s third paragraph, “I find it a bit shameful that killing the unborn is so important to Democrats.” What I think is particularly shameful is that Raynard, or anyone, Democrat or Republican, would honestly believe that there is any truth to this. Do you really accept the validity of this? That Democrats, specifically, are “demanding the right to kill the innocent” as claimed? If you do believe this, perhaps it is because you either wish to frame the debate in this particularly offensive and inaccurate fashion, or you sadly misunderstood the complicated, sometimes exciting, sometimes tragic, circumstances surrounding any pregnancy, wanted or otherwise. I have never been pregnant, making it difficult to imagine what goes on in the mind and body of someone experiencing a pregnancy. However, one truth I have experienced is that I have never met anyone, of any political leaning, who was pregnant and “looking forward” to killing their baby. To suggest that any pregnant person is
thinking this way is very, very sad and a little alarming. I think we would agree that there is almost no one in this great country who gleefully wants to murder children. If you want to discuss abortion and you want to talk about the truth, let us first return to sound reasoning and legitimate claims. - Mark Erler, North Creek ■
Heating and cooling concerns unaddressed
To the Editor: I have been a renter at Inter-lakes Moses Ludington since June 22, 2017. During the fall of 2017, I purchased an electronic fireplace from Lowe’s due to inadequate heat. Also, during their construction, the air conditioning and heat fluctuated constantly. After Elderwood took over, a man came into my room and told the management that my fireplace is illegal. It was removed from my room on my 86th birthday so I gave it to my grandson, Jacob. Still, some of my fellow renters have tried in vain to receive answers to both air conditioning and heating concerns to no avail. As it is 70 days until fall, let’s hope that the air conditioning and heating concerns will be addressed. - Bob Spring, Ticonderoga ■

Exhibit celebrates High Peak hiking passion, stewardship By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
ELIZABETHTOWN |The legacy of Adirondack hiking clubs, the ranges and reach they admire — and trails they cherish — are celebrated in a permanent new Adirondack History Museum exhibit. “Hiking in the Adirondack High Peaks” opened to a large and energized crowd last Friday. Guests, including many long-time Adirondack 46ers and a company of curious summer camp kids, took turns peering past a wide, vermillion ribbon. “It took two years to get this exhibit to this stage,” said J. Sharp Swan, president of the museum’s board of trustees. Swan thanked the dozens of sponsors, designers, artists and curators along with volunteers who put over 1,000 hours of time in to make it work. Adirondack 46er Treasurer Phil Corbell (No. 224W) and L. John VanNorton, (No. 211W) wielded long, shiney scissors and thought first to cut Sharp’s tie. They went for the red-orange ribbon instead and it fell with flourish. A cheer sailed through the museum lobby and up the pitted marble stairways. Corbell and VanNorton’s 46er numbers are some of the first 700 or so, typewritten and catalogued on index cards by the late Grace Hudowalski’s (No. 9). The wooden box of those first few hundred

Konowitz is No. 487, his 46er status achieved in 1968. “On August 12, it will be 50 years,” Konowitz said with a long look. A film interview with Hudowalski and personal effects from her office anchor one side of the exhibit. Her contribution to founding the 46ers, her passion for mountains and local lore was the focal point of a show here five years ago. She inspired the permanent exhibit, Sharp said. But the museum’s collection goes back a century before Grace. Sharp said the oldest images they own were taken by George Bacon Wood Jr. of Old Mountain Phelps on top of Mt. Marcy in 1888. “It is probably the oldest image taken on top of Marcy,” he mused, imagining Wood

Molinaro takes fight to Cuomo deep into farm country GOP hopeful blasts Cuomo on corruption, high taxes By Pete DeMola EDITOR
WILLSBORO | Marc Molinaro has had a busy summer, alternating between news conferences excoriating state corruption and traveling upstate meeting with farmers and regular voters. The Republican gubernatorial candidate stumped in Willsboro on Saturday, bringing his core campaign issues deep into farm country. New Yorkers are overtaxed, contends Molinaro, leading to an exodus of jobs and young people. Overregulation strangles job growth, and Albany is in dire need of ethics reform following a string of corruption convictions surrounding the state’s flagship economic development programs. “Are we just going to accept this as the way it is, or are we going to say enough is enough?” Molinaro told The Sun. “Because I have not been to a region where families, individuals or voters don’t recognize the governor has made a mockery of democracy and has bended the rules consistently to benefit himself politically.” Cuomo has not been accused of any wrongdoing in the criminal schemes that ultimately saw the conviction of former aide Joseph Percoco on corruption charges and Alain Kaloyeros, who was found guilty of bid-rigging in connection with the “Buffalo Billion” project.
CROSS-ENDORSED
Molinaro, the Dutchess County executive, spent Friday in St. Lawrence County,
GOP gubernatorial candidate Marc Molinaro appeared in Willsboro on Saturday, where he was endorsed by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro). Photo by Pete DeMola where he picked up an endorsement from Rep. Elise Stefanik. “He understands the economic challenges of upstate New York,” Stefanik told The Sun. “He understands the need to have fundamental ethics reform in Albany, and I think he’s an example of the new generation of leadership we need in the state.” The two appeared at the Essex County Republican Committee Pig Roast on Saturday. Molinaro and Stefanik delivered their comments alongside other GOP officials — including state Assemblyman Dan Stec and state Senator Betty Little — surrounded by a bucolic landscape of rolling fields and red barns. Stefanik has had a contentious relationship with Cuomo, who has spent the past 18 months attacking Republican members of the state’s congressional delegation, lashing lawmakers in apocalyptic language for trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act, the tax bill, gun control and other measures coming
out of Washington, D.C. — even calling on lawmakers to resign at one point. “I think it shows his lack of ability to work with the New York delegation on issues like the mandates that are pushed down to the counties,” Stefanik said. “That’s something we really need to get under control in New York state because that obviously has an impact on issues like health care when we’re voting for that.”
MEDICAID COSTS
Molinaro said Cuomo, who is frequently mentioned as a 2020 Democratic presidential contender, is too focused on injecting himself into the national discussion. “In the process, he’s discarding and overlooking hardworking taxpayers who need a governor who’s going to respect them and listen to them, and I’ll be that governor.” Stefanik echoed Molinaro’s criticisms of the state’s high property tax burden, and
pinned blame directly on Cuomo, who is seeking a third term. “It obviously highlights the failure of Gov. Cuomo to reign in our taxes and the pressure on the counties,” Stefanik said. “That’s why I think Marc would be a much more effective partner with the New York delegation, both Republicans and Democrats.” As governor, Cuomo has implemented a two percent property tax cap and has required counties to convene panels to probe for possible shared services. But counties continue to complain over Medicaid costs. The Cuomo campaign did not respond for comment.
UPHILL FIGHT
Libertarian Party candidate Larry Sharpe, Green Party candidate Howie Hawkins and Stephanie Miner, an independent, are also running. Molinaro faces an uphill battle to unseat Cuomo, who is also fending off a primary challenge from Cynthia Nixon. The governor has raised $6 million this quarter compared to about $1 million for Molinaro. A Quinnipiac University poll released last week reveals Cuomo would lead Molinaro 43 to 23 percent in a six-way general election matchup. In a two-way race, Cuomo leads 57 to 31 percent. Among all voters statewide, Cuomo’s approval rate is slipping. The governor’s job approval is 49 percent, compared to 54 percent in early May. ■ — This story has been abridged for print.

Essex County to revisit Tobacco 21 Public hearing set for Aug. 6 By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
ELIZABETHTOWN | The Essex County Board of Supervisors is bringing the county’s proposed Tobacco 21 law back to a vote. A public hearing on the measure is slated for Aug. 6 at 11 a.m. Any final vote would likely come in September, according to county officials. The measure proposes to raise the age of tobacco purchasing age in the county from 18 to 21. The proposal, which is supported by the Adirondack Health Institute, was defeated in a first round of voting on June 5 with a weighted vote of 1,359 to 1,264. But not all supervisors weighed in, and the law was voted down with three town supervisors absent: Randy Preston
(Wilmington), Robin DeLoria (Newcomb) and Charles Harrington (Crown Point). Those 298 absentee votes counted as “no.” But had they been tallied, the outcome might have been different. “The full board was not present for the vote,” Ticonderoga Supervisor Joe Giordano said. “Because of the absentees, it failed.” Those who voted in favor were Roby Politi (North Elba), Gerry Morrow (Chesterfield), Ron Jackson (Essex), Joe Pete Wilson Jr. (Keene) James Monty (Lewis) and Giordano. “Nay” votes came from Noel Merrihew III (Elizabethtown), Archie Depo (Jay), Stephen McNally (Minerva), Thomas Scozzafava (Moriah), Ron Moore (North Hudson), Michael Marnell (Schroon), Dean Montroy (St. Armand), Michael “Ike” Tyler (Westport) and Shaun Gillilland (Willsboro). There was some contention over rules of order concerning who could put the matter back on the supervisor’s agenda, whether it would have to be a supervisor absent from the vote or one from the prevailing side.
Essex County Attorney Daniel Manning said the issue could be “brought up now by anyone.” The discussion has been contentious, particularly for local mom and pop stores who rely on tobacco sales for revenue. But it does draw from concerns about the fiscal cost of health care. The Essex County law suggests Tobacco 21 could “reduce health care expenditures including a portion of the $6.9 million in the annual local share of Medicaid costs for Essex County.” In June, Ulster County joined numerous others throughout New York state in adopting a local law. Other counties that have pushed tobacco purchasing age to 21 are Albany, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Cortland, Nassau, New York City, Onondaga, Orange, Rockland, Schenectady, Sullivan, Tompkins and Westchester. As of July 9, five states have raised the tobacco purchase age to 21: California, Hawaii, Maine, New Jersey and Oregon. Massachusetts approved their Tobacco 21 measure on July 19, and it awaits the governor’s signature to become law. ■
Lawmaker wants county to probe intersection Old Military RoadRoute 73 crossing confusing in summer, says supervisor By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
NORTH ELBA | Supervisor Roby Politi has asked Essex County Department of Public Works to assess safety at the intersection across from the North Elba Horse Show Grounds. Old Military Road, managed by the county,
meets State Route 73 at that location. Traffic merging onto Route 73, headed south, is managed by a yield sign, not a stop sign. “People coming down Old Military Road are going 50 miles per hour and go straight through,” Politi said. In peak summer months especially, he said, traffic gets busy there. The Y breaks traffic into and around the Village of Lake Placid. “With so much activity, it is confusing with a yield sign. I am afraid of a problem or problems (occurring there),” Politi said, asking that safety be evaluated. DPW Deputy Superintendent Jim Dougan said he would request an accident list from
the Department of Motor Vehicles. He could then use the data to approach the state Department of Transportation for a formal review. “The state takes authority where a county road meets (a state road),” Dougan told Politi. Dougan did not proffer any solution, but said he would start the review process. Schroon Supervisor Michael Marnell said they were successful in having a similar intersection changed. “It can take six to nine months,” said Minerva Supervisor Stephen McNally. Horse shows, summer residents, tourists and the Iron Man competition are among events that draw thousands to Lake Placid every summer. “I have had a lot of phone calls,” Politi said. ■

‘Agri-golf’ concept leads restoration plans at Westport Country Club Restored club now open with new twist By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
WESTPORT | Layers of clouds swim in a sea of summer blue sky toward distant mountains at Westport Country Club. The fairway and tees are mottled dark and light hues of green by the heat of recent days. Owner Robert Hall is here this season with his sister, golf pro Rickie Hall, completing what, after years tangled in court, has become an all-in restoration process. Renovation of the Club House is nearly complete, the roof and wall structures replaced, the leaks repaired, equipment updated. Decades old carpet was removed and replaced with new flooring. Rustic decor enhances open ceiling beams and huge stone fireplace. Adirondack twig valences grace the long row of windows that fill the restaurant interior with natural light. The return to rustica includes move to sustainability here. At the edge of the golf course, a flock of sheep settle under a hedgerow for shade. Nearby, Westport Country Club’s herd of cattle graze on fields behind fences, turning to watch a curious golf cart amble over the hill.
Robert Hall, owner of the Westport Country Club and his sister Rickie Hall, resident golf instructor, stand by the main dining hall fireplace in Winton’s 1898 Tavern, the renovated club house.
AGRI-GOLF
Livestock addition to Westport Country Club has pragmatic purpose, adding a farm-to-table aspect to the Hall’s emerging business concept: “Agri-Golf.” “With the sheep, we’re working toward an environmentally friendly business model,” Mr. Hall said. “Think back in time: How did courses manage the fairways? All courses had sheep and they still do in Scotland today.” Mr. Hall’s reflection on earlier days does recall the first six, then nine, then 18 holes at these very historic links. “The flock here now will reshape the course,” Mr. Hall said. There are 17 ewes and lambs in grasslands beside the course, moved from one grazing area to the next with moveable fencing. It is in keeping with the golf course’s early history, which expanded by degree from six holes to nine at the turn of the century, circa 1901, by owner Thomas Lee, then owner of the grand Westport Inn. The course was remade and expanded to 18 holes in 1928 by Tom Winton, son of a famed golf club maker in Scotland. Winton is found among the greats in golf course design, particularly known for his work in Westchester courses throughout southern counties of New York. “We are also looking to bring back some of Winton’s designs,” Mr. Hall said. Scottish courses are renknowed for grass bunkers. “Sheep actually created the sand trap,” Mr. Hall said. “They were bunkers dug by sheep to sleep in.” The reopened club house is named Winton’s Tavern 1898, recalling both the course designer and its first links. “We are working now on a development plan for the entire property that is environmentally friendly and incorporates local use and access,” Mr. Hall said. Winton’s Tavern opened in July at the restored club house with a menu created by chef Gerard Reuther. Poutine and poached shrimp remoulade are among appe-

tizer options, with flatbread offerings, charbroiled steak sandwiches, and strip steak, barbecued chicken and grilled shrimp tempting among dinner items. The restaurant’s interior redesign settles honestly into the lines placed in 1924 by architect Russell F. Whitehead, who owned a summer home in Westport he called “Kimberly” at the time. Tall rows of windowpanes overlook the first tee and expanding landscape that draws the eye beyond rolling meadows to ridges of the Adirondack foothills. “The restaurant is here to feed everybody,” Mr. Hall said. “We are open for people who love to golf, those who want to learn to play and for those who just want to relax on a summer day.” The renovated club house is open for lunch and dinner, starting at 11 a.m. every day except Tuesday. To make a reservation at Winton’s 1898 Tavern: 518962-8283. Golf fees are set from $25 for walking fees at 9-hole play to $50 for 18 holes with a cart. Essex County residents can obtain an Essex Pass for discounted rounds. ■
