Rising from the ashes: 1812 Homestead to rebuild Crowdfunding effort underway to rebuild historic education center that burned last month

Like a phoenix, the 1812 Homestead Farm & Museum is rising from the ashes that saw a fire ravage the campus last month. Authorities are treating the Aug. 27 blaze, which destroyed two buildings and damaged several others, as a possible arson. The owners are undeterred at the devastation that reduced a By Pete DeMola beloved local institution to ash and plan on rebuilding. pete@suncommunitynews.com For decades, the 1812 Homestead, located about three miles north of downtown Willsboro, has facilitated living history WILLSBORO — Singed scraps of paper danced in the programs for local students and campers from Pok-O-Macbreeze.

In time for autumn hikes, biking and paddle trips, new parking areas allow entry to former Finch Pruyn timberland NORTH HUDSON — State officials have opened former timberlands in the Boreas tract property to public access. The interim move comes as fall colors begin the slow march through the mountains.

The real estate transaction with The Nature Conservancy cost New York state taxpayers $14.5 million. “The gate on Gulf Brook Road will open tomorrow,” DEC spokesman David Winchell told the Sun last Thursday, as Labor Day weekend got underway. Called an Interim Access Plan, public use includes entrance via Gulf Brook Road and seven miles of bike roads.

The goal is $82,000. Eventually, the homestead aims to replicate the structures as closely as possible to their original nineteenth century incarnations. “This will be a long and careful process, and to do so, we are enlisting the help of several qualified consultants, engineers,

Roads throughout the property were established for logging truck traffic, fitted with culverts and bridge crossings.

Poll shows Jones with early lead Kevin Mulverhill dismisses survey as “publicity stunt” By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — A new poll in the New York State 115th District Assembly race shows Billy Jones with an early lead over Kevin Mulverhill. The poll of 400 district voters shows Jones, a Democrat, leading Republican Mulverhill 47 to 38 percent, with 15 percent undecided. Jones declined to comment on the results. “The only poll I’m concerned with is the poll on Election Day,” said Jones, chairman of the Franklin County Legislature. >> See ASSEMBLY RACE | pg. 9

Local shopowners say Otis Mountain has little effect on business Despite high ticket sales, local businesses say few customers come from Otis Mountain Get Down Elizabeth Izzo

elizabeth@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Though the Otis Mountain Get Down attracts around 2,000 people every September, effectively doubling Elizabethtown’s population for the weekend, many area businesses have yet to see an impact on the local economy. Many ticket holders opt to stay on festival grounds, according to Carolyn Sicher, who works at the Deer’s Head Inn. “I think a lot of people come to Otis, but they stay at Otis for the weekend,” Sicher said. The Sun spoke with several local business owners, and many echoed this sentiment.

“We don’t get many people,” said Steve Cross of the Halfway House, which is located just one mile from the festival site. “In the past, [Otis Mountain] hasn’t really effected us,” said Marsha McCarroll, co-owner of Bub’s Pizza, on social media. “We get stragglers here and there, but that’s about it.” Zachary Allott, an organizer for the event, confirmed that some ticketholders do choose to bring their own meals in an email on Aug. 30. “I think a lot may bring their own food and supplies,” he said. Allott said that though some do bring their own food, many people head into town as well. BREAKFAST A BIG DRAW Only a handful of local business owners said they noticed any change in business. The Arsenal Inn & Motel, who once reported selling out of breakfast because of Otis Mountain, Stewart’s, Aubuchon Hardware and the Boquet Liquor Shop.

Steve Pierce, the owner of the Arsenal Inn, said that “it’s always a noticeable difference” for them. “We get quite a few people in,” Pierce said. “Boo” Duso of Aubuchon Hardware also confirmed that the store sees an uptick. “Yeah, we get some,” Duso said. “Definitely in the last few years we’ve seen an increase,” said Terry MacDougal, owner of the Boquet Liquor Shop. A spokesperson for Stewart’s said that the store particularly sees a bump in breakfast items and beverages. “We do beef up our staffing starting on the Thursday before the event, continuing through to Sunday night,” said Maria D’Amelia. “We really see traffic increase in the mornings and through the lunch hour and late afternoons.” When asked if Otis Mountain organizers encouraged attendees to explore Elizabethtown, Allott said that they do let ticket holders know they can get anything they need in town, and that there are stores just up the road. “I’m a little surprised that most businesses haven’t noted any increase in customers,” Allott said. “There is definitely more of an opportunity to encourage exploration outside of the venue a bit more.” VENDORS HAPPY Vendors that set up shop inside the festival site have a different story to tell. Pingala’s Broccoli Bar comes from Burlington, Vt. to participate in the festival every year. “It’s been great in years past,” said Trevor Sullivan, of the Broccoli Bar. “We offer a veggie option. We’ve had a lot of positive feedback.” Another vendor that frequents the Otis Mountain Get Down is Miso Hungry, a mobile Japanese ramen shop also based in Vermont. “We sell authentic ramen from scratch with my wife’s family recipes from Japan,” said Jordan Antonucci, owner of Miso Hungry. When asked if he received a lot of business at Otis Mountain, Antonucci simply said: “Yes.” The owner declined to discuss how much the shop typically makes during the three-day event.

Ticketholders enjoyed Vermont’s Miso Hungry mobile ramen shop last year. Miso Hungry will make another appearance at Otis Mountain this year. Photo provided

ne can never put a value on a heartfelt “thank you.” They make up a significant portion of the communicated words we use each day, many times passing our lips as an automatic response from one human to another. A more formal “thank you” by card or letter requires greater thought and effort to produce and distribute. They also are associated with some form of cost. For many years, The SUN has published and distributed thousands of letters to thousands of homes from grateful organizations and community members at no charge to either the writer nor the recipient. No other method exists to reach so many without some cost by either party. Sadly, we must announce a change in our policy for accepting these types of letters. The ever-escalating cost of publishing a free community newspaper, mailed to every home in 85 unique zip codes, regretfully requires us alter this practice. Effective immediately, thank you letters appearing in The SUN will need to run as “Cards of Thanks” and will be channeled through our advertising department at deeply discounted rates. Thank you letters will no longer be accepted as a Letter to the Editor. Those letters will now be reserved for issue-oriented commentary to aid in the flow of free speech and the open exchange of ideas. It is never easy to change longstanding practices and we do not make these decisions without considerable thought and discussion. The SUN has a longstanding history of supporting many good causes and organizations throughout the region, which we will continue to do whenever possible. We understand the value of giving freely of our time and talent to assist those in need. But in the case of most thank you letters, they serve to promote their organization, the raising of funds and their supporters for commercial value. Our only form of income to support our publishing efforts and staff is the distribution of commercial information. As these letters get longer and more detailed, they take up more space and require more effort to produce. It’s >> Story Continued this page

GUEST VIEWPOINT

Teaching the young how to vote By Tom Purcell “Son, you’re 18 now. As an American citizen that means you’ll vote for the first time in the upcoming election.” “Gee, dad, I can’t wait to do my civic duty. How do you suggest I prepare?” “Well, son, a good place to start is to re-read the American Constitution to understand the basic principles upon which our country was founded.” “It’s been a while since I read it in school, dad.” “Son, the Constitution is the highest law of the land. All new laws in our country originate from it or should. However, not all politicians buy into the Constitution. Some think it is old and outmoded.” “Outmoded, dad?” “The Constitution establishes a framework for how our government functions. It establishes a system of checks and balances, so that none of our three branches of government ---- the legislative, executive and judicial ---- can become too powerful. Some politicians hate having such limitations placed upon them, however. They want to do as they please with the taxpayers’ money or impose laws on citizens without following the constitutional process. So you’ll want to know their position on the Constitution before you vote.” “OK, dad, I’ll re-read the Constitution and be sure to research what each candidate thinks about it. What else should I do before I vote?” “You’ll also want to study the Bill of Rights, son. The bill represents 10 amendments to the Constitution designed to protect the civil liberties of individuals. For instance, the First Amendment protects the freedom of speech, religion, assembly, the right to petition the government and freedom of the press.” “I remember learning in civics class that a free, objective press is essential to the survival of our republic.” “Which is a worrisome thing, son, when you see how in the tank the major media are for one presidential candidate over the other. You’ll also want to read the 17 other amendments. The 16th Amendment, for instance, was passed into law in 1913. It created the federal income tax.” “I’m already very familiar with that painful amendment, dad. What else can I do?” “Well, son, it’s important to study the issues. There’s lots of disagreement in America and how to move the country forward. Some people think our gov-

Thank you policy From this page

one thing to say thank you to all who supported our cause, but something entirely different to thank every supporter, contest winner, announce upcoming events and apologize for missing anyone (which in most cases is The SUN, which gets no recognition for printing the thank you letter itself). The last line is not meant to be sour grapes. The point I’m trying to make is that all too often, The SUN’s free service is taken for granted and that everything we do should be free. No organization will last long if the value of the service they provide is not supported in a monetary fashion by those who recognize the value. It can’t always be someone else who does the supporting.

ernment is too big and isn’t following the limited-government spirit of our Constitution. However, other people think the government should double down and spend lots more.” “More, dad?” “Yes, some people think �the rich’ aren’t paying their fair share. They think we can impose massive tax increases on them and redistribute the money to others who don’t have as much. But others think that would create a huge negative economic backlash that would end up hurting everyone, in particular the poorest among us.” “So you want me to study the political promises each candidate makes and then vote for the best person, dad?” “Yes, son, but that takes time and effort and too few voters are willing to do any due diligence on the candidates. Since many people get their information from the mass media, candidates who raise the most money to pay for the most negative advertising are often able to sway poorly informed voters.” “That’s disturbing, dad.” “It surely is, son. A thoughtful, well-informed public is the heart and soul of a thriving republic. In my opinion, the candidates who best embrace our country’s founding principles will be best able to tackle the incredible challenges we face ---- debt, spending, government bureaucracy, a flat economy. Regrettably, however, few people think as I do.” “Maybe so, dad, but you offer sound advice. I promise to be as well-informed as I can before I pull a voting lever on Election Day.” Tom Purcell, author of �Misadventures of a 1970�s Childhood� and �Wicked Is the Whiskey,� a Sean McClanahan mystery novel, both available at Amazon. com, is a Pittsburgh Tribune-Review humor columnist and is nationally syndicated exclusively by Cagle Cartoons Inc.

Providing a community newspaper with good quality content, delivered free to every residential home in 85 zip codes, is not a cheap service. Retaining our staff and purchasing the supplies and equipment required to perform this task each week costs approximately $85,000. Many weeks, especially in the winter, we don’t always cover those costs. It could be considered a high-wire act that we perform each week. If we give too much away, it causes those who support our efforts to question why. But at the same time, we believe our free distribution method is the future for newspapers that will survive to serve the entire community for years to come. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. Dan Alexander is CEO of Sun Community News.

ENDORSEMENT POLICY

s we approach the upcoming election season we want to make an important distinction regarding candidate endorsements. With a free distribution in excess of 60,000 homes, our papers are inundated every election cycle with candidate endorsements. The only source of revenue our community publications receive to offset the cost of print, delivery and overhead is paid notices and advertisements. All candidate endorsements must now run either in the form of an advertisement or a paid endorsement notice and include the name of the individual making the en-

dorsement. The paid endorsement notice can be purchased in three sizes — a quick 50 words or less for $15; a 51-175 word endorsement for $50 or a 176-300 word endorsement for $75. A paid advertisement will be based on standard advertising rates taking into consideration size and frequency according to the current rate card at the open advertising rate. For rates call Ashley at 873-6368 ext 105 or email ashley@denpubs.com.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

COMMENTARY

WhenÊ youÊ seeÊ anÊ AmericanÊ IraqÊ warÊ veteran... To the Editor: This is for all the Hillary haters to read when you talk about lying. When you see an American Iraq war veteran with one leg, think about who lied to cause him to lose his leg. When you see an American Iraq war veteran with no legs, think of who lied to cause him to lose both legs. When you see an American Iraq war veteran with one arm, think of who lied that caused him to lose his arm. When you see an American Iraq war veteran with no arms, think of who caused him to lose both arms. When you see an American Iraq war veteran who is blind, think of who lied to cause him to lose his vision. When you see an American Iraq war veteran who doesn’t know where he is or who he is, think about who lied that caused him to lose his mind. When you see all the American Iraq war veteran in hospitals today, think about who caused them to be in those hospitals. I think about it all the time whenever I see any of our American Iraq veterans. I think about it all the time, who could have been responsible for all these ruined lives? How could anyone have lied to do such a horrendous thing, who? Then the answer came to me: George Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Condoleeza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Richard Perle, William Kristol, George Tenet, all Republicans. These people who lied and are responsible for thousands of deaths, injuries, trillions of dollars of debt and setting the Middle East on fire in which there seems to be no end in sight. Joe DeMarco Jay

AppalledÊ byÊ racistÊ incidents To the Editor: After reading the article by Pete DeMola [“Diversity group tackles tough questions,” The Sun, Aug. 20 edition], I was appalled about his report of Alvin Codner visiting a Lake George establishment. It doesn’t matter if you’re an African American or a member of any other race. You should not be treated with such disrespect by any business that is here to serve the customer. The Ticonderoga Walmart is just as bad. When I was growing up, my father always respected anyone he met. His advice was to remember each one of us has a soul and to treat everyone with respect. We all have some DNA from other countries. Let’s always remember to treat all people as brothers. Cordelia Gangone Elizabethtown

TrumpÊ aÊ Ô falseÊ prophetÊ thatÊ spoutsÊ hateÕ To the Editor: In my almost 75 years, I have lived through the elections of 12 presidents. And never have I seen such filth being peddled by Trump and his supporters. Many of them call themselves Christians, and there are even so-called “Christian leaders” carrying the Trump banner. One has to wonder what Bible they are reading and who they are professing to follow! The filth thrown out by Trump at rallies where his followers bring their children is language not heard in sleazy bar rooms. The lesson they are giving their children is that cursing and telling untruths is what our country is all about. Four-letter words pour from Trump’s mouth and any hint of morals are thrown aside. I have to wonder how so-called Christian leader Franklin Graham could possibly give Trump backing when he shows no Christian values. Perhaps Rev. Graham is what the Bible calls a “False Prophet!” In point of fact, Trump falls into the same category as a false prophet when he spouts out his hate and flip-flops every time the wind changes direction. His dishonoring of a family that lost a son fighting for our freedoms is a slap in the face to every man and woman who has worn a uniform. As a draft dodger and a coward, he should stop beating the drums of war and go back to his golf club where is thought a hero by his underlings! Unfortunately we have to wait until Election Day to be rid of this stain on our political process and our country! In the mean time his supporters can enjoy their outsourced Trump products that are putting Americans out of work. There is a good chance Trump may have “Made in China” stamped on his heel! Gary Philip Guido Ticonderoga

Ô InquiringÊ mindsÊ areÊ notÊ welcomeÊ inÊ ThurmanÕ To the Editor: In the beginning of Supervisor Wood’s administration, time and again, she would say “I go by the book.” Resolution #13, establishing rules of procedure, was approved in 2012.

Among the several procedures covered are correspondence and public comment period. Correspondence refers to letters to the town board and public. It states that correspondence shall not be read and shall not be printed with the minutes unless specifically requested. Since 2012, the letters have been read regularly during the minutes. For the past 3-4 months the board has decided they should abide by Resolution #13 regarding the correspondence and not allow them to be read during the meeting. The NYS town law manual does say the public may not participate in the meeting except upon the invitation of the board. Thurman chose to address privilege of the floor comment period, in Resolution #13, 2012 with 13 bullet points. The first stating that the town will provide to the extent practical, a comment period. Since 2012, a comment period has been regularly included in meetings. After four years, why would a board be afraid of comments or questions from the public? Does the excuse of “too much agenda to cover” in less than two hours really ring true? Once again there are overwhelming issues and dissension that the administration apparently does not want brought out in the public meetings, listen to or answer to. This isn’t the first and only issue that our “by the book” leadership reads and chooses, only select parts of the law, rule or resolutions that fit their agenda and ignores the balance. Inquiring minds are not welcome in Thurman. Mary Eddy Thurman

HUDÊ programÊ Ô didÊ nothingÕ Ê forÊ apartmentÊ withÊ blackÊ mold To the Editor: HUD Program, Housing for Underdeveloped: this program helps people with rental assistance. The last apartment I lived in was in Port Henry, NY. For two years I put up with black mold, lead paint and ceilings falling in. HUD did nothing until Public Health moved me out of there. Now, I’ve moved to Elizabethtown, NY. I have roaches and mice in an apartment HUD recommended to me. It was never inspected before I moved in. My caretaker just kept getting sprays, and whatnot, from the store. Then, he was forced to spray. Just my apartment. HUD employee did nothing. I, Laurie Rafferty, tenant, have contacted the health department. I spoke to the man once on the phone, he said the problem would be taken care of. Now, he will not even return my calls. The HUD employee stated I was in danger of losing my assistance. Except I still have a caseworker through Public Health. A home health care person out of Plattsburgh. And a mental health worker drops into my home. The neighbor next door stated the roaches were in the apartment when I moved in, to the caretaker. I am not allowed to move, due to HUD. And if I just keep quiet then I can keep my HUD and not be homeless. That’s the way the HUD program works in Essex County. Laurie Rafferty Elizabethtown

ThankÊ youÊ forÊ yourÊ service To the Editor: I find responding to Joe’s attack regarding Trump’s Lie’s in your Sept. 3rd edition difficult. I was raised to respect my elders and always offer a helping hand to them if they were in need, and have respect and gratitude for every veteran that served our country. These values are inherent in my D&A. So learning that Joe is a WWII veteran presents a difficult challenge to me. Joe, thanks for your service and protecting our way of life, men like you and my father severed with distinction and honor for the duration of WWII. Take note my father was a Democrat but I guarantee you if he were alive today he would be supporting Trump, protecting us from both the socialists and communists that have infiltrated the Democratic party and would continue the destruction started by B. H. Obama. As for your incoherent and rambling messages I charge them off to your age. Due to respect for the Sun’s policy as to the length of articles I will not respond to the numerous and false accusations. Bert Windle Putnam

Trump on Immigration Speech sounds good, but rings hollow

Christine Flowers Columnist

s an immigration lawyer, I approached Donald Trump’s speech last Wednesday night with anticipation, hope and trepidation. I was willing to keep an open mind about a topic that, next to abortion rights and religious freedom, is the most important issue for me in this campaign. I was prepared to praise the man if he came out with an honest, workable, non-tweetable attempt to address the extremely complicated factors that go into the whole concept of “illegal immigration.” To say I was disappointed is an understatement along the level of “Houston, we have a problem.” I listened politely as Trump spoke about building his wall, and understood that this was an appealing concept to many - including myself - who are troubled by the fluidity of our borders. As he discussed the modalities that would be used to build that wall, evoking technologies apparently not yet in existence, I realized that his use of this concept was much more symbolic than anything else. “Build a wall” has been an effective slogan over the years, and it doesn’t require much cerebral heavy lifting. Trump sounded more poetic than Maya Angelou: “On Day 1, we will begin working on an impenetrable, physical, tall, powerful, beautiful Southern border wall.” He talked about “above- and below-ground sensors” which other people call “tunnels.” He talked about aerial surveillance, towers and additional manpower. He also said Mexico would pay for the wall, even though the Mexican president made it clear that Mexico “no paga.” So the estimated $8 to $12 billion needed to build this “beautiful Southern border wall” will have to come from somewhere. Then Trump announced the revolutionary concept that he would change enforcement priorities by “removing criminals, gang members, security threats, visa overstays, (and) public charges.” I stood up and gave him a standing ovation when I heard that. But I gave President Obama that same standing ovation when he announced those same priorities in November 2014. Yawn. Trump then talked about screening refugees, and no one who has seen the brutality wreaked by ISIS and other Islamic terror groups should object to that. But, as experts have noted, refugees generally undergo the most rigorous and time-consuming process of any category of immigrants. Sometimes the process can take up to 18 months, or more. So again, nothing new. The suggestion that illegal aliens must be kept out of the country because they have an innate tendency to be more violent and homicidal than the average native-born American is wrong. Debatable, but still wrong. It’s an argument we can have; I’m fine with that. My problem is using death to make your partisan point. “My boy was shot by a cop. They’re bigoted monsters.” “My boy was killed by an illegal. They’re homicidal maniacs.” Same tune, different verses. And if you don’t think it’s the same tune, that’s because your ears are registered with a different party, and you think some mothers are less entitled to grieve than others.

EYE ON THE ARTS

North Country comes alive with dwindling summer

here are plenty of North Country residents who feel, immovably, that the North Country is the best place to live. Period. One of the biggest contributing factors to their love for the area, from what I’ve heard from those idealistic residents, is the fact that the North Country has four definitive, textbook seasons. In simpler terms; the winter months are cold until spring moves in, then summer, then fall, and each season brings with it the expected side effects. As the summer dwindles, our tourism industry doesn’t die; it evolves. Soon the leaf peepers will descend upon our quiet towns, orchards will open for apple picking and hayrides, and fall will be upon us. In this transitional period, there are a number of events around the region that will either cling to the summer, or embrace the oncoming fall. Here are a few: The Lake Placid Center for the Arts will host the Bumper Jacksons, 2015 Washington Area Music Award winners for Artist of the Year, on Sept. 22 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. For more information, call 523-2512 or visit lakeplacidarts.org.

Boreas

From page 1 “All roadways and lands are open to hiking, hunting, trapping, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing except for oneacre around leased (hunting) camps. “All of the lands are open to camping provided campsites are more than 150-feet from any roadway or body of water, but at this time no specific tent sites have been designated.” DEC and the town of North Hudson have established a total of eight parking areas, some large enough to park horse trailers, Moore said. The Town of North Hudson was contracted by DEC to build five of the parking lots. “There are two on Elk Lake and two across from the Hoffman Notch Trail off of Blue Ridge (Road). You go up further at Gulf Brook Road, and we are building another parking area that is a loop, for a larger vehicle, like a trailer for horses,” Moore said. The parking areas and interim use plan do not indicate what DEC and APA will recommend for classification, Moore said. “This interim plan has nothing to do with future state landuse classification.” But it does allow people to begin to explore the area once used by Finch Pruyn as its corporate retreat. “People have been accessing it all along for hiking and for biking,” Moore said. “It would be great to be able to get closer to the ponds. I drove in yesterday as far as you can go. It’s about 3.2 miles from Blue Ridge to the gate. “From there, if you wanted to canoe, you’d have to take your canoe or kayak on wheels or carry it another 3.5 miles to get to the ponds.” If DEC allowed motor vehicle access to LaBier Flow it would be only a mile carry, roughly, to the ponds, Moore said. “At Labier Flow, you could actually put in and paddle up. Otherwise you’d have to walk close to a mile.” With onset of the busy fall hiking, biking and paddling season, Moore said this plan could draw traffic off of the busy, often overcrowded, High Peaks region directly north. “This Interim Plan is a start, especially given the fact that we have bicycling permitted to the ponds and that we have what appear to be quite a few trails for horseback riding,” Moore said. The supervisor is working with a coalition of five towns, which includes Newcomb, Minerva, Indian Lake and Long Lake, to advance a multi-use recreational plan. Several Adirondack environmental groups are pressing for a more strict Wilderness classification at Boreas, one that could remove roadways and possibly the dam structures. North Hudson’s supervisor expects the APA will start the land-use discussion at its Sept. 15 meeting. “I don’t know if they’ll have their alternatives formed at that point. But if they do, there will be many public hearings.” The five-town coalition is looking for a snowmobile trail along the southern edge of Boreas as part of the embattled Community Connector trail system. DEC Commissioner Basil Seggos said they were pleased to open the property with an Interim Plan. “Outdoor enthusiasts of all skills and abilities will now have incredible opportunities to visit and enjoy the newest addition to the Adirondack Forest Preserve,” he said in a news release. There are eight designated parking areas. Three year-round parking areas are set along the Blue Ridge Road between North Hudson and Newcomb at the entrances to Sand Pond Road, Gulf Brook Road and Ragged Mountain Road. These three are the only parking areas designated for parking horse trailers, according to DEC. Two year-round parking areas have been designated along the Elk Lake Road for fishermen, hunters, trappers, and others, DEC announced. And three seasonal parking areas are set up along Gulf Brook Road. But these three will be closed after winter sets in until the end of the spring mud season. “In addition, public parking will be allowed on any point along Blue Ridge Road or Elk Lake Road, except where parked vehicles would block a roadway or gate. There are several miles of suitable public parking along Blue Ridge Road,” DEC said. There has been no formal word yet as to any plan by DEC to incorporate parking or trailheads at the closed Frontier Town property, which is currently owned by Essex County.

Refugee photo reception planned SARANAC LAKE — Come see the photographs taken by 40 Syrian refugee children who worked with Beatrice Schachenmayer of Lake Placid, a project supported by contributions from KVCC parishioners and the church’s Refugee ministry. Schachenmayer used her talents to help refugee children in Turkey give voice to their experience and dreams during her six-month residency. The opening reception is Thursday, Sept. 8, at 6 p.m. at Bluseed Studio in Saranac Lake. Come meet Beatrice and learn about the project and her experience working with the children.

Mulverhill, the Franklin County Sheriff, said he was undeterred by the results and blasted the survey for what he said was a lack of specificity. “There was no questions on the issues, and no determination why they answered the survey the way they did,” Mulverhill said. “No indications of what part of the 115th this was in. The questions are general and not specific at all.” The survey was conducted by Kiley & Company. A spokesman for the Jones campaign declined to confirm the genesis of the poll conducted by the Rhode Island-based firm. “We’re having a difficult time to figure out who paid for the poll,” Mulverhill said. “It almost looks like a publicity stunt.” Thirty-eight percent of respondents said they were Democrat; 33 percent, Republican, and 20 percent counted themselves as independent or unenrolled. Both campaigns said they looked forward to the final eightweek stretch before voters head to the polls.

“We’re working hard, spitting out a good positive message and going around talking to many people in the district about what matters to them the most,” Jones said. Mulverhill said his campaign will ramp up door-to-door outreach operations following Labor Day. “The indication on the trail is that we’re doing very well,” Mulverhill said. “Those people have a lot to say and we’re going to listen — and do more listening than talking.” The poll comes on the heels of a court decision that may have political implications for the race. Former Franklin County Undersheriff Patrick White last month plead guilty to three violations for his role in an operation that saw deputies allegedly following county legislators to public places to reportedly “harass, annoy and alarm” them. A former deputy said he was ordered to target legislators who questioned funding for the department. But the sheriff had said the surveillance stemmed from complaints that the legislators were driving while intoxicated. White was fined and sentenced to a conditional discharge. Mulverhill, who has said he had no knowledge of the incident, said he stands by the department — and understands

professionals, and historic preservationists to help us achieve our goal,” DeBusk wrote on the campaign’s GoFundMe page. The first building pegged for replacement is the barn, which was utilized as an indoor teaching space. The farmhouse and other structures will follow, said Jack Swan, 1812 Homestead owner. Total costs to rebuild are unknown, Swan said, as is the final tally for damages. None of the buildings were covered by fire insurance. But for the owner, the decision to rebuild was a no-brainer. Following the blaze, Swan said he was he was energized by the response from the community. He said he had no idea people were as psychologically invested in the property as he was. “They’re as sad as I am,” Swan said, citing the flood of calls and well-wishers following the incident, including a woman who said she was up all night crying. While the suggested donation is $18.12, the average contribution so far has been $100, with donations pouring in from across the country. Over $10,000 was raised on the first day. “I heard my first, real, truly scary ghost story here, and made enough candles over the years to light a small church,” wrote Liz Aibel, who donated $150. “Thanks for organizing.” DeBusk said the outpouring has been inspirational. “I’ve very moved to see so many people getting behind it,” she said. “I just hope we keep the momentum.” Swan hopes to have a barn up by spring, ideally an old-fashioned barn-raising. “We gotta do something positive,” Swan said. Perhaps a replacement for the farmhouse will follow. The incident remains under investigation. “We know it was arson because there was three fires going at the same time,” Swan said. “I hope they can catch the guy, but I don’t think so. Everybody is in the blank why anybody would do this.”

why White took the deal. “I’m a little disappointed because a trial would have brought all the facts out,” Mulverhill said. “The county spent a lot of money to end up with basically three violations — I don’t think it was worth it for taxpayers.” Jones declined to comment on the case. The two candidates are vying to replace incumbent Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, who announced in March her retirement from the seat she has held since 2007. Duprey, a Republican from Peru, has endorsed Mulverhill.

BlueÊ BombersÊ addÊ depthÊ forÊ stateÊ titleÊ defense By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE PLACID — Defending state champions. That is the title the Lake Placid varsity boy’s cross country team holds as they enter the 2016 season, winning the Class D crown last season. This year, with experience returning to the roster, the Blue Bombers can look to do what no other Section VII cross country team has ever done. Repeat. Coach Mel Frazer said he feels this season’s team, which comes in as the fifth ranked team in Class D, will have more depth in 2016. “We have six new runners who have talent and will be fighting for a spot to run varsity by finishing in the top seven of the group,” Frazer said. “Last year’s team had some top runners, but this year’s team has more depth.” Top runners will also return to the team, led by senior Henry McGrew, who is ranked fifth in the state heading into the 2016 season. Senior Scott Schulz also earned a state ranking, placing 11th in the preseason, while seniors Trent White, the sixth fastest junior in

the state last season, and Davey Mihill return as members of the state championship roster. They are joined by senior Patrick Quinn, who transferred into the district. Underclassmen seeking spots on the varsity roster includ freshman James Flanigan, who ranked as the second-fastest eighth grader during the 2015 season. Eighth graders Spencer Daby and Van Ledger enter their first year of varsity competition, while first time cross country runners include junior Tim Kelleher, sophomore Jesse Izzo and freshman Kai Frantz.

Blue Bombers seek ﬁfth straight sectional title in Class C By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE PLACID — The Blue Bombers boy’s varsity soccer program has put a stranglehold on the Section VII/Class C title over the past four years, a task they hope to do again while making it to the next step at the state level. “With six returning starters, a strong talented 11th grade class and two 10th graders worthy of a call up, we want nothing less than a fifth straight sectional title,” head coach Stuart Hemsley said. “Last years ‘Quad Squad’ will want to be the ‘Five Guys.’” The Bombers would also like to continue their winning ways in Division II of the Northern Soccer league, where they were unbeaten one year ago. “One game at a time, one half at a time, one attack at a time and always careful in defense,” Hemsley said. “If we rise to the level this team are capable of then we might see something special from this group.” Hemsley said he has experienced players who he hopes will provide the leadership needed to get deep into the November part of the schedule “In his senior year, Stuart Baird will lead his team mates and is already on the radar of a Division I program like UVM, a first for our school, and he is an exceptional talent,” he said. “There are many others, some still to start firing on all cylinders but our graduating losses of last year have more than ample replacements. I am happy that Kamm Cas-

Lady Blue Bomber harriers have added depth, state-tested experience By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE PLACID — The Lake Placid varsity girl’s cross country team will return a pair of state qualifiers along with several newcomers who will help round out a complete team which will look to be competitive in 2016. “The girls have a full team of seven runners,” coach Mel Frazer said. “There is a strong mix of strong and highly experienced veteran runners who will lead a group of new, but talented, younger runners. The girls will be a strong force to

reckon with.” Senior Gabby Armstrong will seek to complete a sensational career as a Lady Blue Bomber, having made the NYSPHSAA championship meet in each of her last five years. Junior Alex Hartnett also qualified for the state meet last year, while sophomore Sara-Rose McCandish was 15th at the Section VII championships and seeks to rise up the rankings, which could also help the team in seeking a Class D title. Several first-time cross country athletes join the team, including senior Lissy Ashley, freshman Beatrice Hollander and Anya Martin, and eighth-grader Marli Damp, who comes off

a strong showing as a member of the Blue Bomber outdoor track and field team last spring. — See more Blue Bomber sports, page 13

RedÊ StormÊ seekÊ returnÊ of Ê SectionÊ VII/ClassÊ CÊ title By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

SARANAC LAKE — The Red Storm varsity boys football team will not dwell on losing the Section VII/Class C title one year ago. Instead, they are going to focus on what they need to do on a day-by-day basis to get back to the top of the mountain. “We are really trying to win each day,” head coach Eric Bennett said. “The kids have had a great summer and they have bought into what we want to do.” Bennett said so far, he is very pleased with the effort. “We really like our team,” he said. “They are a great group of kids, they act like gentlemen and they are focused on what they want to do.” Bennett said the Red Storm come into the 2016 season with an experienced core of defensive talent which will serve the team well. “We return a lot on that side of the ball and the kids know the scheme we want to run and are looking to play with passion,” he said. “We also return our core of running backs and wide receivers and the goal is to look for a quarterback to get those kids the ball.” Through the preseason, Bennett said the team has to focus on being able to play on the plus side of the turnover battle. “We need to control the turnovers and score some points,” he said. “We have to be able to run the ball if we want to do that. Overall, we are excited with the line because we have more size then we have in the past couple of years.” Throughout the season, Bennett said he will be focused on the team executing each day and playing smart, fundamental football. “We need to control what we can control,” he said. “If we can simply block and tackle and work on the finer points of the game, then the bigger things will take care of themselves,” he said. Bennett is assisted by Jim Hayden, Wayde Montroy, Johnny Muldowney, Kyle Mochol, Josh Vaughn and Jake Vennie-Vollrath. — See more on the Eagles in the 2016 Fall Football book

SARANAC LAKE — The Red Storm Boy’s soccer program will return eight players to the field in 2016 who have starting experience heading into the Division I season. “The Red Storm is returning all but three of its starters from last season,” coach Josh Marlow said. “We should be very competitive this year and are aiming to finish in the top half of the league.” With only one sophomore on the roster, the Red Storm have a squad of experienced players, which Marlow said will be led by a duo of returning captains. “We have great senior leadership in returning captains Ethan Wood and JB Chapin,” he said. “We have a few new faces such as sophomore Quinn Peer who looks to have an outstanding varsity debut leading the defense along with junior Dzihad Cecunjanin, pairing upfront with Ethan Wood at forward and junior Sawyer Chase adding some fresh speed on the midfield wing.”

We have great team chemistry and a strong will to succeed.” Wilson said he has a duo of returning players who will need to step into leadership roles. “Eliza Cowan is a strong captain and show assertiveness on the field,” he said. “Iris Glinski is a strong sweeper with the

intent to stop opposition.”

LadyÊ BombersÊ seekÊ D-II,Ê ClassÊ DÊ crowns By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE PLACID — After several years in the think of the Class C title hunt, the Lake Placid varsity girl’s soccer program will now be in the thick of the Class D title race, bringing several experienced players back into the mix. Head coach Heather Brewer said some of her returning players will need some extra time to get into the rotation, as they will need to meet the state practice requirements. “Some of the key returners are ineligible and will not be available at the start of the season,” she said. “The team will look to improve throughout the season.” The team will be led by Taylor Barney, Grace McGrew, and Lissy Ashley as key parts of the Lake Placid offense, as all will be looking to step up to fill the void created by the loss of graduates Liza Marinis, Mia Kennedy and Cameron Shipman.

RedÊ StormÊ prevailÊ overÊ AuSableÊ Valley,Ê hour-longÊ quarter By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

SARANAC LAKE — While some may have seen this as a revenge game on numerous levels, for the Saranac Lake Red Storm varsity football team, it was just a chance to win another day. “This year we are really trying to stay in the moment and control what we can control,” said head coach Eric Bennett after the Red Storm scored a 21-6 win over the AuSable Valley Patriots. “From the summer on, we have talked about competing every day,” Bennett added. “I don’t look at this as a revenge game or a C rivalry game, the theme is let’s worry about today. On Tuesday, it will be worry about Tuesday.” “I am really proud of the guys for staying with it,” said Red Storm lineman David Sullivan, as both teams had to deal with heat and cramping issues which, along with a plethora of flags, led to a third quarter which lasted 63 minutes in actual time. “To come out here on opening day and play this way to give it our best was great,” Sullivan added. “The focus was outstanding and this oline is like a family.” “It was a hard game but we knew we had to stay focused,” said Red Storm back Jarrett Ashton, who ran for 153 yards and two scores. “We knew AuSable would come out and play

hard and our whole goal was to win today.” Will Coats, who started at quarterback for the first time after transferring to AVCS, said he was nervous leading up to the game. “It got better as I focused in on practice and doing the little things right,” he said. “It wasn’t smooth and it took a long time to finish out, but we are happy to get the win.” Coats threw for 102 yards on 11-of-17 passing, while Patriots quarterback Dalton McDonald threw for 232 yards and one interception on 13-of-39 passing attempts. “I expected some mental mistakes, but we made some we have gone over and over and we shouldn’t be making them,” Patriots head coach Ed McAllister said. “I know we are going to have lapses when you start five sophomores, I think I need to do a better job with conditioning and making sure everyone knows their assignments.” McAllister said the opening weekend loss has ramifications in the Class C playoff picture. “If Saranac Lake beats Saranc next Saturday, we have to beat Saranac twice if we want to defend our title,” he said. While the Chiefs and Red Storm will face off in a Saturday Matinee Sept. 10, the Patriots will play the Revolutionary Bowl against the Sentinels of Ticonderoga, who have not lost on the AVCS turf in seven tries, included a 21-12 “home-away-from-home” victory over Beekmantown Sept. 2.
