Volunteering second plank in United Way platform

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ The North Country runs on people-powered volunteerism.

Spring cleaning, hanging drywall, donating clothes, graphic design work, clean-up campaigns, computer instruction, assisting the visually impaired.

These were some of the of anecdotes shared by United Way stakeholders at a meeting on Friday, Oct. 17 to discuss how they can better serve communities in Franklin, Clinton and Essex counties.

Last year, United WayÕ s Adirondack chapter served 81,000 people through 41 partner agencies across the tri-county area.

ThatÕ s about half of the population.

United Way Director of Development Kathy Snow called the agency a key player in the world of North Country volunteerism. ÒG ive, advocate, volunteer,Ó s he said.

A recent grant has helped them match

volunteers with opportunities throughout the region Ñ kind of like a matchmaking website, said Snow.

But itÕ s now more than that. ÒI tÕ s like a one-stop shop,Ó s he said.

Another database allows staffers to quickly tap into lists to contact volunteers when an opportunity arises.

Snow said United Way, which launched their annual fundraising and publicity drive last month, is applying for another grant to further strengthen their network.

Even if that fails, she said, they will continue to promote volunteerism.

She cited the Day of Caring, last springÕ s effort that brought out 600 volunteers who took part in efforts across the area, from beautification projects to collecting canned goods. ÒI tÕ s part of who we are,Ó said Snow. ÒW e get calls all of the time. People want to volunteer. We can guide them.Ó Dennis Egglefield, of Egglefield BrotherÕ s Ford in Elizabethtown, said the com-

munity excels at binding together during natural disasters.

But more young people need to get involved, he said, and advance training needs to be given so that volunteers arenÕ t turned back during unpredictable events. ÒWh en you talk volunteering anything, people are running and hiding,Ó h e said.

He said this detachment from civic disengagement also ties into what he perceives as a generational change in how people view work in general. ÒW eÕ re missing two decades of people who want to work and learn a trade and it continues right on to volunteerism,Ó he said. ÒI tÕ s all interrelated in one form or another.Ó Danielle Bikowitz of the Champlain National Bank said it might help if volunteer opportunities were spread to more opportune times to accommodate the schedule of working families.

KEENE Ñ Three years after an angry Gulf Brook unleashed a torrent that carved away riverbanks, flooded homes with muck, uprooted the townÕ s firehouse, took out the BuckÕ s Lane Bridge and tore out parts of Route 73, renewal is almost complete.

Earlier this month, the last FEMA buyouts were completed. Last week, the townÕ s firehouse came down. Now, theyÕ re poised to start work on projects that will provide a stronger degree of protection for the townÕ s 1,100 permanent residents.

Last Friday, Supervisor Bill Ferebee stood on the firehouseÕ s footprint. The debris had already been carted away, leaving a neatly-raked square dotted with only the errant piece of insulation and styrofoam.

The next phase will start next week, he said.

That includes restoration of nearly 700 feet of riverbank, including the construction of an enhanced channel section with fortified armor, and other measures to ensure bank stabilization.

Widening the brook in the departmentÕ s footprint will allow the water to spread out and diffuse force, Ferebee explained, while the five boulder vanes are designed to take the energy away from the brook.

Essex County gets yellow light for traffic diversion program

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Good news may be on the horizon for local leadfoots as Essex County officials floated the idea of implementing a traffic diversion program in Essex County.

Such programs are intended to give a second chance to offenders who commit a relatively minor vehicular offense, Community Resources Department Director Mike Mascarenas told lawmakers on Tuesday, Oct. 13. Ò ItÕ s not going to be for people going 70 in a 30,Ó he said.

Mascarenas said a possible program would be broadly similar to that in Allegany County, where offenders cough up $225 for a six-hour defensive driving course, either online or in-person, to wipe their slates clean.

When a driver successfully completes the program, the traffic ticket is dismissed and no conviction or points for that ticket will appear on the driverÕ s record.

More than 20,000 traffic tickets were issued in Essex County last year due, in part, to the Northway.

Officials say such a measure would help unclog local courts and cut administrative costs, transferring the financial burden to the offender rather than the taxpayer. Ò ItÕ s monetary accountability while adding a layer of driver education,Ó said Mascarenas.

Board Chairman Randall Douglas noted that his son, who attends college in Allegany County, got clipped for a speeding ticket and is currently enrolled in their program.

Douglas said being forced to sit in a classroom for six hours on a Saturday morning will make him a better driver and cause him to rethink his actions. Ò ItÕ s a win-win,Ó he said. Ò ItÕ s revenue for the county, revenue for the towns and it promotes public safety.Ó Serial offenders would be prohibited from participating in the program, which is reserved for those with four or less traffic points, a valid license and an 18 month stretch between DWI convictions.

In response to lawmaker questions, county Manager Daniel Palmer said online courses have become increasingly sophisticated and itÕ s virtually impossible to game the system.

While implementation of the program would not cost the county any additional funds Ñ good news

for taxpayers and lawmakers wary of rising costs Ñ it may meet resistance from the local magistrates who adjudicate such violations and may balk at the potential wave of dismissed tickets.

“We can define eligible offender from the program and thatÕ s where we need insight,Ó District Attorney Kristy Sprague told lawmakers. Ò We need to understand that weÕ re not taking control away, but actually giving them more control by making them do more.Ó Sprague said prosecution was is an unfunded state mandate. Not even postage is compensated.

Another benefit, she said, was the reduction in insurance costs for the parents of young motorists.

Sprague watched other counties move forward with similar programs Ñ including neighboring Franklin County Ñ and said that revenue can be kept local. Ò I think it needs further discussion. If it doesnÕ t work out, it doesnÕ t work out,Ó said Douglas.

If the board opts to move forward, the program would be initiated through their public safety organs and would not require a change in local law.

“Can you take it preemptively?” joked Vice Chair Bill Ferebee, looking at Douglas. Ò I never said I was a good driver,Ó said Douglas.

Saranac Lake High School nets media center literacy grant SARANAC LAKE Ñ The Dollar General Literacy Foundation has awarded the Saranac Lake High School Library Media Center a $3,000 grant to support youth literacy. Ò We are very excited to have earned a Youth Literary Grant from Dollar General,Ó said Saranac Lake High Library Media Specialist Seth Putnam. Ò We have utilized the grant to order great fiction and informational texts that are

both interesting to the modern high school reader as well as very accessible in terms of readability. We are also excited to share that in honor of this grant and in light of significant regular district library budget reductions, our sales representative Stephen Rozzi from Perma-Bound Books further discounted our book order. Hence, $3,350 worth of books are soon to arrive in the Library Media Center to be en-

joyed by our students.”

Last week marked Teen Read Week, which made it extra-special to be able to announce this wonderful opportunity for our students, said Putnam. Ò Youth literacy grants from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation make a distinct impact on the communities we serve by supporting programs that improve education and enhance literacy,Ó said Rick Dreiling, Dollar GeneralÕ s chairman and CEO. Ò At Dollar General, we are passionate

about our mission of serving others and itÕ s exciting to see the real difference literacy and learning make in peopleÕ s lives.Ó The SLHS Library Media Center Program has a goal of increased book circulation for the 2014-2015 school year as compared to 2013-2014 statistical data. Circulation statistics will be tracked on all of the specific books acquired with the Dollar General Grant. Further, monthly student visitation data will continue to be gathered and

evaluated on an on-going basis. Students will be encouraged to compose online book reviews to be featured on the library automation catalog.

Awarded at the beginning of the academic year, youth literacy grants from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation help provide teachers, schools and organizations with the funding and resources they need to properly begin the school year.

Congressional candidates make stops around their potential territory

Funiciello aims to bring working class ethos to Congress

Stefanik camp rallies at the Full Moon

Walking between the rows with Aaron Woolf

By Pete DeMola

By Maggie Morgan

By Pete DeMola

HUDSON FALLS Ñ On a recent Sunday morning, golden maples framed the streets in this working class suburb in rust-colored October glow.

Children played in front of tidy brick houses. Beat-up jalopies rattled through intersections. Parents raked leaves, teenagers milled about in small clusters and occasional peal of church bells cut through the chatter of people streaming in and out of a nearby American Legion.

America encapsulated in a singular Kodak Ñ or Instagram Ñ moment.

A pickup truck slowed and turned as it approached a quiet factory, its smokestacks silent.

It stopped and cut the engine.

Matt Funiciello leapt out, jiggled his keys and entered his tidy one-bedroom apartment.

He poured a cup of coffee for a reporter and slid it across an inexpensive wooden table.

Funiciello, the Green PartyÕ s candidate to replace retiring Congressman Bill Owens, has become a wild card in one of the countryÕ s hottest Congressional races.

While Funiciello, 46, has spent the overwhelming majority of his campaign putting in a 40-hour workweek at Rock Hill Bakehouse, his bakery in downtown Glens Falls, the candidate is polling at 8 percent (an earlier poll had him at 10 percent) and generating an outsized discussion in the public sphere.

Following a pair of strong debate performance that saw Funiciello cruising above the turbulence of his opponents Ñ Democrat Aaron Woolf and Republican Elise Stefanik Ñ that number could very well be higher now.

Pundits and the public have declared him a refreshing voice in a political system that has grown sour in the wake of more of the same.

LAKE GEORGE Ñ A Washington DC-style community barbecue took over the lot of the Full Moon Bar and Grill on Saturday, Oct. 18.

Republican Congressional candidate Elise Stefanik said these are the settings from which she enjoys and learns the most. Ò IÕ ve outweighed my opponents in small donor dollars. I want to attend the small town meet and greets. It provides an opportunity for an intimate setting. I can listen to attendees and talk one on one. We have been doing these types of events for the past year or so,Ó said Stefanik in an interview.

Stefanik supporters gathered from across the district to listen to the candidate.

“This is a beautiful time in a beautiful place that we all enjoy,” said Assemblyman Dan Stec. Ò Elise has the perspective we all share, she is clearly the most prepared and most qualified, she’s going to carry the ball for all of us.Ó Stec thanked those who helped organize and support the event, and was especially anxious to announce that House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-California) was in attendance, the elected official who covered the most mileage to speak at the event. Ò This is Republican country here in the North Country,Ó said Stec as he grinned, stating McCarthy must have had to fly over a lot of Ò blue countryÓ on his way from California. Ò The reason I got in this race hasnÕ t changed, the people have but not the reason,Ó said Stefanik.

The candidate thanked those in who traveled from as far as Jefferson, Essex, and Clinton counties as well as those from neighboring towns. Ò It shows your support, we are here because of you,Ó said Stefanik. Ò I see the same thing from all of you,Ó McCarthy told the crowd. Ò YouÕ re ready for a breath of fresh air, and that is what Elise gives us.Ó

TICONDEROGA Ñ Aaron Woolf walked between rows of corn, tossing out kernels of agricultural policy.

The documentary filmmaker paused, tore a husk from a branch, opened it and inspected the contents within.

Yellow Dent Number Two, he said. A variety with high starch content. Ò We really need an agricultural policy that allows high productivity with the advantages of diversity and localization,Ó said Woolf, a Democrat who is running to replace Congressman Bill Owens to represent the 21st Congressional District.

Walking through a corn maze on a chilly Sunday afternoon was a weird place to be. Kids darted underfoot and migrating birds cawed in the slate-gray sky looming overhead.

But when a Congressional candidate has an opening in their schedule, you take it, even if itÕ s shivering in the middle of a cornfield deep in the Champlain Valley.

Woolf, who was visiting Fort Ticonderoga, said the country should shift away its policy of centering commodity groups in specific regions — grain in the midwest, produce in California — and instead concentrate on strengthening regional food systems and building an infrastructure that promotes small-scale operations in the area.

The average bite of food travels 1500 miles. Ò YouÕ re chasing it down with a glass of diesel,Ó he said.

Agricultural operations across the Champlain Valley, from diversified livestock operations to community-supported agriculture programs, lend themselves to the creation of regional food hubs, super-concentrated combos that bring together the production, aggregation, distribution and marketing fields to empower individual entities who are unable to do so on their own.

Food would then be shuttled to large-scale consumers, like local hospitals and schools, who would benefit from buying local.

Make sure Whitehall melee does not happen

T

he regular season in local high school sports is now over, and the Section VII playoffs are set to begin in all of the fall sports, from the cross country Championships Oct. 31 to the football title games Oct. 31 to Nov. 1.

This is a time of year when old rivalries heat up. The game between Moriah and Ticonderoga for the Section VII/Class D title, much like the Class B matchup between Beekmantown and Peru, has plenty of fanatics charged up and ready to cheer their teams on to victory.

In soccer, games in Class D pitting anyone against sectional power Chazy always prove to be an emotionally charged affair.

The players are charged up to either get another chance to prove they can beat their opponent or a second chance at being the victors.

There is a lot of emotion that comes from these games, but, under no circumstances, can we see a repeat of what happened on a football field just south of here Oct. 18.

In a game between host Whitehall and visiting Rensselaer, New York State Police had to be called in after rough play led to a brawl, the brawl led to ejections, the ejections led to more rough play and eventually the premature ending to a game that had barely kicked off into the second half.

At the suggestion of Whitehall Athletic Director Keith Redmond, the game was called off because tempers were not calming down after an on-field brawl which had coaches pointing the fingers at the opposite sideline.

Rensselaer, who had a coach - someone who we believe should be a role model to their student-athletes - ejected, claimed that a Whitehall coach pinned one of their players down and fans were heard yelling racially-charged comments from the home stands.

While Redmond said no one was without blame for the events that unfolded, Rensselaer head coach Joel Preston placed the blame on the host team and the officials, being heard on video saying, “You haven’t seen a lot out there today.Ó In the end, Troopers were called to the scene and would not permit Whitehall fans or players to leave Ambrose Gilligan Field until Rensselaer players and fans had left the school facility.

This kind of incident is completely unacceptable in the high school sporting arena, and we applaud Redmond and head referee Mark Cleveland for their actions in putting an end to a serious situation which could have become worse as tempers continued to boil over.

With the praise those two men deserve, we believe head coaches Preston and Justin Culligan of Whitehall and their staffs failed to their jobs as leaders of high school athletic programs. They both, despite what Preston may believe (Culligan was quoted as saying, Ò neither side is innocent in this), needed to show restraint and help to defuse the situation.

On Monday, Culligan lost his job as the Whitehall head coach. We believe Rensselaer should take similar action and remove Preston from the sideline as well, along with the assistant coach who was ejected during the game.

October 25, 2014

Instead, you had Rensselaer coaches running over to the Whitehall side of the field, where the incident took place which started the brawl, and coaches yelling, pointing fingers of blame, pushing and in one case, if not two, getting physically involved in the melee. No coach should ever be ejected, ever, especially if it involves endangering the welfare of a high school student-athlete on any team.

So, how do we make sure we prevent this kind of incident from happening on the playing fields in Section VII: Athletic Directors and school administrators: Be as present as you can be at your games. If Redmond had not been at the game, who knows what may have happened if the decision had been left solely on the shoulders of the coaches. Coaches are busy dealing with the game and those involved and cannot be asked to be site security as well. If there is a situation where the A.D. is not able to be there or is coaching in the game, make sure there are chaperones who can monitor the fans as well as the field. This is one we feel Section VII schools do well as we see many school officials at the venues throughout the region.

Officials: End Ò chippyÓ play early on. If that means a yellow card in soccer, show it. A personal foul in football, throw the flag. Don’t be worried about increasing the penalties if the Ò chippiness,Ó continues, because that’s what the red card and ejections are for.

Coaches: Don’t just preach sportsmanship, but be an example of sportsmanship in practice and on the sidelines. A lot of what fanned the flames to the Whitehall situation can be traced to how the coaches reacted. These kids are going to take their cues from the role models on the sidelines. If you are calm, it will help calm them down. If you are looking to pick a fight, guess what your players are going to want to do?

Oh, and speaking of role models: Parents and fans: We know 90 percent of you are there for the right reasons, to cheer on children and be supportive. But to the other 10 percent who ruin these moments for everyone, your bad behavior has to stop.

You know how, as parents, you complain that you sound like a broken record when disciplining your kids for bad behavior? Well, dido from us.

As an example, one of our reporters witnessed some shameful behavior at a Section VII rivalry game (which will take place again in one week), where a visiting fan was walking up and down the sidelines verbally harassing a member of the opposing team. That is unacceptable, as this older person was being abusive to a 16-17 year-old boy. ThatÕ s right, boy. Not man. Not professional athlete. Not college athlete. Teenage boy. People who do this should be ashamed, along with ejected from any site they are at.

So please, let’s make the Section VII playoffs and subsequent state runs many of our local teams make a source of pride for our communities, not a sad lead-in for the 6 oÕ clock news or fodder for a newspaper editorial. Ñ D enton Publications Editorial Board

Letters to the Editor

Who will you vote for?

Non-profits do their part

Breakdown tax relief received

To the Valley News: Another election is just around the corner. As our economies continue to shrink and our adult children still continue to be forced to look for work elsewhere, who will you vote for?

Will you vote for the continuation of the Ò tourism, environmental and planning” mantra to “create “ jobs or will you elect people who will actually repeal some of our overly restrictive laws and allow some year-round industry to come into the area, bringing with it families and children to support our local business and fill our schools?

Yes, CATS trails are nice but the underlying desire to tie up all development outside of our hamlets will not help us in the least.

Here in Westport, we are being warned by our new school Superintendent that we may be facing school closure within five years if things donÕ t change. Our kids will be shipped off to Willsboro, Elizabethtown, and Moriah. As she has experienced, it will mean death to our community.

So as you ponder who to vote for this Nov. to fill that seat on your town council or supervisor position, be aware you can continue the downward spiral or take a course reversal and start the journey back to economic sanity for you, your neighbors, and our children.

Tim Sherman, Westport

To the Valley News: “Nonprofits: Should they pay their fair share?” Before committing this act of sticking the editorÕ s foot in the mouth, the editorial board should have taken stock of the content provided to that very edition of the DenPubs News Enterprise. Twenty four articles, press releases, pictures, and paid advertisements were submitted and/or paid for by the non-profits in this region. This is a hefty percentage of news ink sponsored by the organizations that the editorial board feels “impose a cost on municipalities.” Non-profit organizations are useful and enriching to these little towns tucked into the mountains, whether it is an educational, art, medical, or religious resource. While the article does try a little to differentiate between types of non-profits, it also does little to prevent grouping every organization into the same scourge on the system. We- the non-profit collective- are Volunteers, not ‘squatters’ as is suggested in the article. We donate our time, our resources, our skills, gasoline, phone calls, letters, and ink cartridges. We offer free public programs, free receptions, and free exhibits to benefit our communities. What would the Adirondack community landscape look like without the benefits of non-profits? Empty.

Johnsburg Historical Society Board Johnsburg

To the Valley News: A breakdown of the tax relief each non-profit receives would be educational for citizens and local governments in the North Country. IÕ d like to see the breakdown by religious organization, health care centers and hospitals, recreation, arts councils, and environmental organizations - the categories you mention in the Oct. 18 Opinion column.

Having these numbers would help the public and municipalities evaluate the benefits to their communities.

Lorraine Duvall Keene

Thanks to hospital

To the Valley News: The response of the First United Methodist Church in Ticonderoga to the recent fire devastating St. Mary’s School was nothing short of heroic. The immediate and unwavering offer of the use of the facility to house our elementary school was an answer to a huge prayer. No sooner had the school burned down than did the Methodist Church nobly step up to help us.

We are so very thankful for this support from our neighbor and friend in Christ, and we do not know what would have been the alternative, if not for their reaching out. What we do know is that the school would in no way be up and running within one weekÕ s time.

The almost seamless transition for our students and staff has meant the world to all of us, especially after the emotional and physical crushing that everyone experienced from this loss.

The step up to the plate that was seen by Jenn Pike and Carrie Reale, who spearheaded the effort to get the school up and running again, was simply tremendous! Who would know the skill and take charge abilities of this duo, had it not been witnessed firsthand?

The enormous amount of volunteers organized, donations received, and construction designed and carried out, happened in a huge step by step process, thanks to Carrie and JennÕ s tireless work overseeing all of these tasks. Thank you for giving yourselves so completely to this emergency and carrying out all that had to be done in such a wonderful way.

So many people gave of themselves during this crisis that it is mind boggling. As impossible as it may be, I wish that I could thank each one individually who responded in our time of need. The helpful hands, the prayerful thoughts, the words of encouragement and sympathy, the food and drink given, and the funds donated, were all so sincerely and generously offered.

The businesses, schools, and organizations that have donated to our need have provided one more, thick layer of giving that has supported the rebuilding of our school. The depth and breadth of these contributions is amazing. The Ò communitywideÓ support reaches far beyond our geographic area.

We want the community to know how thankful we are, and how much we appreciate every detail of attention that has been given to our every need. We could never have gone on without these many gifts. How encouraging to know that our mission is one that is shared by so many kind and generous people, groups, and our community at large.

Sister Sharon Dalton Principal, St. MaryÕ s School Ticonderoga

To the Valley News: We would like to thank Dr. Mary Glickman and Vicki Savage; all the nurses, PTs, OTs, aides and hospital staff, and everyone else at the Elizabethtown Community Hospital, for the wonderful care and concern to our loved one, Nancy Morelli, and to us, her family, when she was hospitalized there in August.

Everyone was wonderful and we will never forget the way we were all treated in NancyÕ s final days. We are very fortunate to have this caring institution in our North Country.

Thank you, The family of Nancy Morelli

Editorial misleading To the Valley News: The Valley News Editorial “Nonprofits: Should they pay their fair share?” implies that not for profits don’t create jobs; paralyze economic development; serve hobbyists and insular groups (many of which represent seasonal residents;) donÕ t serve the poor; and create towns Ò preserved in amberÓ (aka playgrounds for the rich).

In claiming that Adirondack not-for-profits own 20 percent of our areaÕ s private lands, being 600,000 acres, the editorial may confuse the lands protected by conservation easements (a little over 600,000 acres) with the lands owned by not-for-profits -- schools, churches, museums, and the like -- which total far less.

Lands protected by conservation easements benefit from certain tax benefits; in return, they provide public benefits whilst still paying some taxes. At 14,200 acres, Paul Smiths College lands may be the largest not-for-profit holding, New York State College of Forestry owns 11,000 acres; Fort Ticonderoga, 2,000 acres; the Wild Center, about 85 acres; and the Adirondack Museum at Blue Mountain Lake, just 38. The two colleges use their property for education and training in forestry and forest management. Fort Ticonderoga, the Wild Center, and the Adirondack Museum use theirs for educational purposes. All are the largest or one of the largest employers in their given community and each attracts over 100,000 visitors annually who support a multitude of restaurants, shops, and lodging facilities.

Land owned by the public schools adds up. But asking them to pay a land tax would result in our school taxes going up to cover their new tax burden. Taxing churches -- most of which operate food banks and a multitude of other services for the less fortunate -- would reduce their ability to help the poor. Taxing hospitals, assisted living, and other health institutions would just drive up health costs, reduce services, and perhaps lead some to close their doors.

Museum and other cultural institution funding are greatly supported through the generosity of seasonal residents; however, the vast majority of their attendees are visitors and locals Ð not those writing the funding checks. Their generosity keeps the price of attendance down and supports many free educational events for local children and youth.

The Adirondack Foundation commissioned the SUNY Oswego Office of Business and Community Relations to conduct a study of the economic impact of not-for-profits in the Adirondacks. Their 2013 report concluded that over 10 percent of the workforce in the Adirondacks works for not-forprofits (17 percent works for local government, 14 percent for the state, 3 percent for the federal government, 12 percent are self employed, and for profits employ 43 percent). The 36 not-for-profits selected for the study (a small percentage of the total) paid $84 million in salaries, $6.3 million in payroll taxes, served over 1,6 million people, over $214 million in total expenditures, and brought over $32 million in grants into the region. 36 percent of their employees are in the 20-40 years age group, meaning that they are one of the best assets we have for attracting young families to and keeping them in the region.

Bottom line: without not-for-profits the economy of the Adirondacks would be great peril as play a vital economic and educational role, creating jobs and attracting money and young people to the region.

Helen DeChant Elizabethtown

Pleased with house vote To the Valley News: I deeply thank our Congressman Bill Owens for signing on to the House resolution 688 which calls for President Obama to pledge our country’s fair share to the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization or GAVI. If we ever need to act in the long term for global health, now is the time. GAVI helps countries strengthen their health infrastructure and has saved millions of lives. In the face of Ebola, functioning health systems means Ebola will by handled by the country of origin instead of infecting the rest of the world.

To the Editor, 10 reasons to elect Aaron Woolf to represent YOUR district: 1. Woolf will aggressively work to improve the Affordable Care Act rather than repeal it (as Stafanik promises).

To keep us safe

2. Woolf will protect Social Security and fix it by ensuring that high earners and big companies pay their fair share.

To the Valley News: The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Every Soldier, Sailor, Airman, and Marine takes an oath of allegiance to protect and defend this ideal, which is unique to our Nation. Apparently, Governor Andrew Cuomo and some of our wrongheaded Legislators in New York State do not believe in the basic tenets of our Constitution. The flawed reasoning behind the recently enacted and unconstitutional edict known as the ÒS afe ActÓ is counter to the very ability of our citizens to protect themselves, their families and our Nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.

The inability of our citizenry to defend themselves could well result in a weakness which would allow big government to become our Master, not our servant. The inability to self-protect is evident in nations world-wide. Socialism, Marxism and Communism do not work. A well armed, free and educated citizenry is a bulwark against aggression.

If you are indoubt whether all our enumerated rights, including the 1st and 2nd Amendment must be protected-Ask a soldier. Do not presume the protective bubble we live in will be maintained without keeping our basic freedoms intact. This security has been purchased with the blood, sweat and tears of our fighting men and women of our armed forces, do not squander it. We who have served and those who serve today and tomorrow will be watching how the gift of liberty is treated.

Any politician who would attempt to weaken, trample, modify or do away with our exceptional Constitution should be immediately removed from office. On Nov. 4 we will have an opportunity to do just that. Governor Cuomo and other anticonstitutionalists must go. Vote them out! We the People need to reclaim our say over government.

Lloyd Brockney 1st Air Cav Vet Willsboro

3. In Woolfs internationally acclaimed film King Corn, he shows how Congress currently subsidizes the Happy Meal rather than a healthy meal from a local family farm and served by a small business/school cafeteria.

4. Bill Owens toured with Woolf to all corners of this district.

Owens endorsed him because he sees in Aaron the bipartisan leadership that is needed in DC. 5. This is Woolf's first involvement in politics. Meanwhile, Stefanik coached VP candidate Paul Ryan for debates.

6. Woolf has been rooted in Essex County for over 40 years, Like many professionals in the North Country, his work brought him to NYC where he has met with success.

7. Woolf is a REAL small business person. His best film did 100K in sales, not $25 million per year like Stefaniks small family business. He helped save many old theaters around the district from going out of business by getting them equipped with digital projectors.

8. Woolf and his wife chose the site of his father's burned down house in Elizabethtown to rebuild and raise their daughter. They invest their wealth directly into the 21st district through land and school tax. Stefanik pays taxes in DC. 9. Woolf raised money from small donors within the district and paid for his campaign out of pocket. Significant Stefaniks funding comes from extreme political players Karl Rove and the Koch Brothers.

10. If you like Matt Funicello vote Woolf. He can actually further some of Matt's ideas.

I

Off to the woods

went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to confront only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not livedÓ - Henry David Thoreau Thoreau, best known as a philosopher, was also an avid woodland wanderer. At the time he was traveling through the forests of New England, such travelers were known as tramps, a slang term that described, Ò travelers that went camping.Ó Tramping was the equivalent of backpacking, and it was a popular pursuit for nearly a century prior to the development of such standard equipment as Kelty Backpacks, Dunham Wafflestompers, Svea stoves, or eureka, self-standing tents.

According to journals of the day, the only equipment a tramp required was a Ò sachel, walking stick, stout pair of boots and a fondness for the open country.Ó Fortunately, plenty of modern day tramps are still around and there remain innumerable places for them to wander about, especially in the Adirondack region.

Currently, the local forests are being shared by a variety of users, ranging from late season hikers to big game hunters and a host of “schroomers” out looking for a late flush of mushrooms.

As the season wears on, hunters will slowly become the majority among the various woodland wanderers. All travelers at this time of year should be sure to dress for the season which brings cooler weather and shorter days. Warmer clothing, stout boots and bright garb should be the fashion for late season outings.

The coming weekend signals the arrival of the Regular Big Game Hunting Season, and all woodland travelers should adjust their outings accordingly to avoid the inevitable conflicts.

In general, hunters and hikers tend to get along quite well. In most sections of the big woods, hunters tend to stay Ò off trailÓ in their efforts to find game. Conversely, hikers tend to stay on trail in an effort to get to where they are going and to avoid conflicts.

For the most part, hunter/hiker conflicts are relatively easy to avoid, especially if both parties exhibit the proper respect for both the land, the game and each other.

If by chance a hiker happens upon a hunter, it is important to make your presence known. This doesnÕ t require a lot of yelling and hollering, when just a simple nod or tip of the hat will do.

Conversely, hunters should plan their travels so as not to cross paths with hikers. Often, it is unavoidable, and in such cases each group should offer a simple nod of recognition and be on their way. Treat every gun as if it were loaded at all times.

In such situations, it is important hold your firearm in a nonthreatening manner especially if approached by other hunters, or a Conservation Officers.

Hunters should always be aware of other users, and plan their routes accordingly. This is especially important where it comes to a choice of where to set up Ò on watch,Ó place a tree stand or plan a drive.

Hunting parties that prefer to hunt with watchers and drivers would be wise to utilize territory that does not encompass marked hiking or biking trails.

Although such terrain may appear inviting, there are so many

other productive areas to hunt that it simply doesnÕ t make sense to risk an incident that could ruin everyoneÕ s day.

In their ongoing efforts to locate prime hunting areas, many hunters fail to consider two of the most efficient recreatioanal tools available-bikes and boats.

A few years ago, I crossed paths with a Paul Smiths College student who was regularly hunting in the woods surrounding the Slush Pond, Mountain Pond, Hayes Brook area.

He used a mountain bike to gain quick, easy and efficient access to some truly remote areas. He had attached a scabbard to the bike’s handlebars to hold his rifle.

After finishing up with his classes, he would ride off to the hunt. He explained that the bike did not seem to disturb deer as much as a heavy-footed hiker. It also allowed him to get into the deep woods quickly and quietly without working up a sweat.

He carried his hunting clothes in a scent free bag and would change into hunting garb before climbing into the tree stand.

Considering the wide assortment of mountain biking opportunities available throughout the region, itÕ s rather surprising there arenÕ t a lot more hunters taking advantage of this untapped hunting tool.

Possibly the single most overlooked hunting areas are sections of woods that require water access such as remote points of land, islands or even the opposite side of a river, stream, pond or lake.

Not all hunters are lazy, but many of them are and they typically prefer to stick to familiar territory. ItÕ s totally understandable; as we all tend to gravitate to terrain thatÕ s familiar and hospitable.

Sometimes it pays off to wander into to such unknown, and untapped lands where other hunters rarely travel.

It can be as easy as taking a motorboat up the lake, a canoe down the river or wearing a pair of waders to get across a river or a bog. Deer prefer to hang out in places where humans donÕ tÕ go. If you can access those places, you’ll likely find deer.

If you do happen to be successful, dress out your animal and transport it with dignity. Understand that not everyone hunts, and some people actually find the idea atrocious. It doesn’t mean we should stop hunting, but rather we should exercise a bit of discretion when handling and transporting the carcass of a kill.

It only takes one sour hunter to spoil the reputation of all of us, and bad news travels faster and farther than good news.

Use common sense and be respectful to all. Not everything that is prohibited or rude is expressly against the law; but by being accommodating to other hunters, hikers or landowners you can make a difference between an enjoyable experience and a wasted day.

Dam Nation movie

October 25, 2014

A

few months ago I wrote about the impact that dams have on fish migration. Since that time the Willsboro Dam has been under some intense scrutiny to have it removed. A plan is in place for its removal, and now it all boils down to money.

If you are curious about how and what a dam does

By Rich Redman and doesnÕ t do for trout, steelhead, and salmon, come and check out a free movie called Ò DamNationÓ at Plattsburgh State University.

Patagonia presents DamNation Sponsored by SUNY Plattsburgh Department of Expeditionary Studies and Trout Unlimited Oct. 29, 6 p.m.

Krinovitz Recital Hall Hawkins Hall, SUNY Plattsburgh An open discussion will follow the conclusion of movie.

For more information call Derrick Miller at 566-7079.

On behalf of the Lake Champlain Chapter of Trout Unlimited.

A precious resource in the Champlain Valley awaits a return to glory. Over 200 years ago, here in Plattsburgh, a prolific population of Land Locked Salmon annually inundated the Saranac River to spawn in their historical quarry. Since this time, man-made barriers, in the form of dams, have obstructed passage of migrating fish, diminishing the range of spawning habitat, thereby depleting populations. Imperial Dam obstructs 10 miles of prime spawning habitat.

Imperial Dam is serving no positive purpose. Rebuilt in 1903, the dam once provided hydroelectric power to the long defunct Imperial Wallpaper Mill. Refurbishing the hydroelectric capability is not cost effective. The dam is not protecting life and property as it does not regulate flow. In fact, it presents a potentially disastrous hazard, as Irene has pronounced a Ò New Normal.Ó Finally, the dam does not provide recreational opportunities. The river is obstructed to recreational boating. Imperial Dam obstructs 10 miles of prime and sustainable Land Locked Salmon spawning habitat.

For over 20 years veteran members of the Lake Champlain Chapter of Trout Unlimited have been anxiously awaiting the restoration of our fishery. The salmon have been waiting for over 200 years. Our Chapter is co-sponsoring the free public viewing of the Ò DamNationÓ documentary in order to raise awareness of our local concern.

Trout UnlimitedÕ s mission is to Protect, Connect, and Restore our cold water fisheries. Trout Unlimited is a non-profit organization. TU was founded in 1959 has 150,000 members nationwide among 400 local chapters.

Memberships will be available at the showing if you would like to become a Trout Unlimited member.

United Way

Continued from page 1 ÒT he hard part is coordinating times,Ó she said. ÒS ometimes itÕ s hard to be a part of that.Ó United Way Executive Director John Bernardi said the agency was working hard to get people signed up and trained. ÒT hatÕ s where weÕ re concentrating,Ó he said. ÒW eÕ re working to get them to sign up now during the calm times so we have a database glean from that we can use.Ó Volunteers will then be steered to the proper programs.

Elizabethtown-Lewis Central Schools Superintendent Scott Osborne expressed pleasure with the high level of volunteerism amongst students in his district, especially amongst athletic teams.

Their projects vary greatly, he said. Some are community-based, like cleaning a food shelf, for example, or assisting elderly. ÒW e integrate it into the extracurricular side

of the world and get a lot done,Ó he said. ÒK ids gladly do it.Ó John Bartlett, an official with the Ticonderoga Kiwanis International, cited a program that provides low-income children with backpacks stuffed with food to take home on Friday afternoons.

One-hundred and fifty kids in four area schools participate, including Ti Elementary and Middle, St. MaryÕ s, Putnam and Crown Point. ÒWh en you get into schools, thereÕ s an underbelly there,Ó said Bartlett. ÒT hereÕ s way too much poverty in the North Country and weÕ re trying to expand incrementally to help them break out of that cycle of generational poverty.Ó Bernardi said thatÕ s what the United Way is all about.

State Police: Beware phone scam RAY BROOK Ñ Swindlers are calling businesses and individuals and telling them their power will be shut off if they donÕ t pay their Ò overdue bill,Ó reported New York State Police in an alert last week.

The scammers also advise the unsuspecting victim that they can either wire transfer the funds or use a prepaid card such as a Money-Pak Green Dot card to make payment.

Some businesses and individuals in the Essex County area have reported they have fallen victim to this con.

A caution for anyone who may receive a call from one of the scammers: These calls are solely for the purpose of soliciting money and should be ignored. If a person or business receives a call like this, they should hang up and call the respective utility companyÕ s customer service number to report the call.

Never give out personal or account information over the phone if you receive one of these calls.

Beware of someone pretending to be from a utility provider who is threatening to shut off your power and is demanding immedi-

ate payment. Always contact your utility provider directly before paying anything.

Utility service providers generally do not use or recommend wire transfers, or any other form of prepaid cards. Ò We have repeatedly warned our customers about this scam, and in most cases, they become suspicious very quickly when someone attempts to take advantage of them,Ó said Mark S. Lynch, president and CEO of NYSEG and RG&E. Ò We urge our customers to never let their guard down.Ó National Grid said there have been numerous reports of these types of scams in several states over the past year. They are continuing to advise customers to be wary of any caller who threatens service termination unless an immediate payment is made. Ò Even one call is too many, but unfortunately we have received hundreds of calls from customers reporting these scams in recent months,Ó said Edward Hanover, National Grid security manager for New York. Ò Unsuspecting customers fall prey to these tactics and in some cases give up personal and bank account information.Ó

Continued from page 1 Ò This will keep our constituents safe and protect the center of town in the event of another disaster,Ó he said.

Natural materials will be used to protect the aesthetics.

He pointed at an easier part of the process, white bricks guarding the three properties that were accessible only by foot for over a year following Irene, which touched down on Aug. 28, 2011.

ESPC Plattsburgh is slated to complete the project by mid-December. By springtime, as the brook bubbles back to life, plantings will tie it all together.

Still waiting

Following Irene, Gov. Andrew Cuomo became a steady presence in the region.

Last week, Kathy Hochul, his running mate in this fallÕ s general election, toured the site and visited with local officials.

During Irene, Cuomo used the area as the staging ground for his appearances, chatting with local residents and even helping to clear away debris.

Ferebee said he discussed the next phase of the project with Hochul, the final transfer of funds from the NY Rising Community Reconstruction Program.

The phase is slated to encompass the area from BuckÕ s Lane Bridge, which is countyowned, to the mouth of the East Branch of the AuSable River.

Ferebee said there were three scenarios for moving forward depending on how much funding they lock down.

The first and preferred option is the replacement of BuckÕ s Lane Bridge with a wider, longer structure.

The second, the installation of overflow culverts that would take water around the bridge, and the third, an effort to deepen the floor of the Gulf Brook.

Ferebee said he would like to see engineering and surveying for that project start this winter with construction starting this spring.

“It’s a long project in the making,” he said. Ò IÕ m anxious to see it completed.Ó He lauded Cuomo for his continued focus on the region. Ò He walked through that door unexpectedly,Ó he said, recalling the nerve center that was set up in the town hall, located directly across the street, in the aftermath.

Since then, Ferebee estimated the stateÕ s chief executive has made between six and ten personal visits, the most recent in August, when he dedicated the Upper Jay Firehouse. Ò IÕ ll be glad once its all over,Ó said Randall Douglas, the Jay Supervisor who shouldered much of the recovery effort with Ferebee. Ò It certainly was a trying time the past three years.Ó

Sawyer’s three touchdowns lead Indians in win over Chiefs

By Andrew Johnstone

andrew@denpubs.com SARANAC Ñ Brandon Sawyer ran for 219 yards and two touchdowns and Blake Altizer threw four scoring passes as the Indians routed the Chiefs 51-0 on a rainy Oct. 18 afternoon.

Sawyer gave Peru, which moved to 7-0 and finished the regular season atop the Section VII standings, its first 1,000 yard rusher since Brandon Keleher in 2002. Sawyer finished the sevengame regular season with 1,031 yards.

The Indians picked up the win despite some miscues, including three turnovers and two big runs called back on penalties.

On the first play of the game, Sawyer had an 85-yard touchdown run called off and another long dash to the end zone in the second half ended the same way. ÒT hose are things we want to clean up offensively,Ó said Coach Nick Damiani. ÒW e canÕ t have that.Ó However, when Peru played mistake-free, the team rolled. They opened the game by marching 85 yards down the field for an early lead, capped off by a 23-yard Sawyer score.

The Chiefs went three-and-out on their opening drive but had two chances to seize momentum. Josh Santor recovered a Sawyer fumble but the drive stalled and Saranac was forced to punt.

Then, Caiden Goodman intercepted an Altizer pass, but the Chiefs gave it back.

Peru would be the team to convert a turnover into points when Anthony Gallo picked off a Mason Utzler pass and took it 47 yards to the endzone for the 14-0 lead.

defense. The Chiefs started two drives on the Peru 15-yard line, including one set up by a long kick return by Goodman, but both times turned the ball over on downs. ÒW e did good things on defense,Ó said Damiani. “We flew to the ball.”

After his early interception, Altizer recovered and threw his first touchdown on a well-executed screen that Sawyer took 43 yards to the house.

The next Peru drive, Altizer found Gallo for a 37-yard score to give the Indians a 29-0 lead to the half. Gallo finished the game with 60 re-

ceiving yards and points on offense, defense and special teams. He ran in one two-point conversion and completed a pass to John Gallo for another.

In the second half, Jeff Smith hauled in an 18-yard touchdown pass from Altizer on PeruÕ s first drive and Sawyer picked up his third touchdown on of the day with a 63-yard scoring run to make it 44-0 with 4:44 left in the third.

“We saw that when everybody does their job what we can do,Ó said Damiani of the strong offensive and defensive rhythm.

The Chiefs, who beat Plattsburgh 20-12 the previous week, couldnÕ t muster enough yards to score despite the winning the turnover battle three-to-one.

SaranacÕ s Mason Utzler was held to 5-of-13 passing for 16 yards and an interception , while the running game had trouble gaining traction as well.

Rafael Rivera ran the ball seven times for 18 yards and Michael Charland added 13 yards on 11 carries in a tough offensive outing for the Chiefs.

Sentinels score 24 seconds into game, roll to 43-6 victory Ticonderoga runs strong to close out regular season

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ While Ticonderoga used their usual running attack to roll past Plattsburgh High Oct. 17, they exploded onto the scoreboard very early en route to a 43-6 victory.

After Kaleb Wiktorko recovered a forced fumble on the first play of the game from scrimmage, Garrison Hughes connected with Ryan Trudeau for a 31-yard touchdown pass to give the Sentinels a 7-0 lead 24 seconds into the game.

Hughes completed his first two passes for 53 yards while finishing 6-of-12 for 109 yards and two scoring throws, the second going to Brody Rocque for 19 yards in the second quarter.

Hughes also ran the ball five times for 93 yards and two touchdowns, a 26 yard score in the second and 18 yard run to cap off a 10 play drive to open the second half.

Trudeau excelled on both sides of the ball, catching a pair of passes for 52 yards and running for eight yards. Defensively, Trudeau was involved in 2.0 tackles for loss, 0.5 sacks, a tipped pass, a forced fumble and an interception. Ò We came out with a lot of intensity and improved on it throughout the game,Ó Trudeau said.

Devin Alkinburgh added three tipped passes at the line, one which appeared to be a backwards pass but was ruled dead by the officials.

He also recorded one sack of PHS quarterback DÕ Andre Lemieux.

Ò We have worked on our speed off the line all week,Ó Alkinburgh said. Ò We knew the short pass play (PHS) runs and we worked on jumping that. Coach had us well prepared.Ó Ò We have been sharp on defense, something that has improved every week,Ó head coach Scott Nephew said. Ò You are always happy with a win, but I also feel we were not as sharp as we usually are.Ó On the offensive side of the ball, Rocque caught a pair of passes for 27 yards and a score while running the ball nine times for 32 yards to

go with a tackle for a loss defensively.

Konner Bruce led the attack on the ground with 11 carries for 103 yards and one touchdown, while Ian Lawrie ran the ball four times for 32 yards, Cody Huestis had five carries for 29 yards and a score and Samuel DuShane two catches for 27 yards.

Defensively, Wiktorko had 1.0 tackles for loss and the opening fumble recovery. Cody Shaner had two tackles for loss with one being a sack, while Kolby Bradford had one tackle for loss, 0.5 sacks and a tipped pass that also appeared

to be a backwards throw but ruled dead, Jacob Spaulding had 0.5 tackles for loss, Nick St. Denis one tackle for loss, Chase Dixon 0.5 tackles for loss, DuShane a forced fumble to gowith a sack and Domanic Banish had an interception.

Banish also connected on a 25-yard field goal offensively.

Overall, the Sentinels outgained the Hornets 406-124.

Lemieux finished the game 5-of-13 throwing for 78 yards and a scoring pass of 25 yards to Riley Monahan in the fourth quarter, with Monahan finishing with two grabs for 47 yards.

Lemieux also added 24 rush yards on 11 carries.

Skyler Barriere had 11 yards receiving, with Quran Carroll adding 14 total yards (12 receiving), and Jack Goldsmith 12 yards receiving.

Defensively, Monahan, Josh Rock-Vanier and Henry Sanchez each had one tackle for loss, while Dalton Harney and Sanchez each had 0.5 tackles for loss. Jack Longtin recovered a muffed punt for the Hornets.

PHS will next play in the Section VII/Class B semifinals against Beekmantown Saturday, Oct. 25, while the Sentinels will play a Section VII/X crossover game at Malone. Ò We have got a lot of stuff we have to improve on to up our game,Ó Hughes said. Ò We donÕ t really know what we are going to be facing, but I am going to treat this as a playoff game,Ó Trudeau said. Ò We are focused on two weeks and trying to improve and get ready for that game (against Moriah Oct. 31). Ò We want to keep having fewer penalties, which has been happening throughout the season,Ó Nephew said on what he expects against Malone. Ò We also want to come out with that edge we have had earlier in the year.Ó

Rushing attack leads Vikings past Patriots in lopsided win Vikings run their way to 42-6 win to close regular season

Troy Welch ran for all three first quarter scores through holes that Noah Gilbo, Hayden Fernandez and others produced.

That offensive line would continue making denpubs@denpubs.com running room for seven different running backs throughout the game.

CLINTONVILLE — With Moriah starting Moriah started the scoring just five minutes quarterback Adam Jaquish in street clothes due into the game with a Welch 4-yard run.

Rushing for three touchdowns in the first Coats completed passes to Chasm Perkett, Mark Whitney and Tyler Champine during the drive.

The Viking defense would take over after AuSable Valley’s scoring drive. Noah Gilbo came up with sacks in key situations and the swarming defense disrupted every Patriot drive.

Jarrod MacDougal, normally one of the prime receiving targets for the Vikings with 253 yards with a couple of touchdowns on the season, instead filled in at quarterback and did a great job.

Sophomore Brandon Hammond for 40 yards to open up the second quarter scoring.

Nine minutes later he hit Taylor Slattery for a 22-yard scoring strike.

By halftime Moriah was firmly in control with a 36-6 lead.

Vikings Coach Don Tesar would use the second half to showcase the rest of his run game.

Malik Tromblee carried most of the load, accumulating 71 yards on 13 carries.

Noah Gilbo stoped making holes for other running backs long enough to run through

some himself, including a 4-yard touchdown run. GilboÕ s touchdown would be the only scoring of the second half.

For the Patriots, Coats would continue to try to make plays, but a relentless Viking defense would prove hard to overcome.

Chasm Perkett was a standout for the Patriot defense as well as his receiving and punting duties.

After the game assistant coach Mike Maloney was proud of his team for one reason: “They never quit, nobody laid down.Ó
