John Zurlo named Irishman of the Year By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — John H. Zurlo has been named the 2010 Irishman of the Year. The honor was bestowed upon the Clinton County Clerk and Champlain resident during the annual Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce St. Patrick’s Day Breakfast at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh Angell College Center March 17. Master of ceremonies Kevin J. Killeen made the declaration, which gives surprise recognition to those who continue to make contributions to the community. Killeen hinted at who the honoree was with terms like a “visual community leader” who is “proud of heritage” and “comfortable with cabernet or chardonnay,” referring to Zurlo’s pastime of winemaking. Making a reference to Zurlo’s active volunteer work and fundraising efforts for nonprofit organizations, Killeen jokingly said the honoree is “known for pilfering pockets to fill local coffers.” When Killeen officially named Zurlo as this year ’s honoree, Zurlo made his way up to the podium, shaking hands and receiving pats on the back along the way. “I really appreciate this honor. I can’t believe this,” Zurlo said upon arriving at the microphone. The award meant a great deal to Zurlo, he said, considering he has dedicated his life to

After Northern Adirondack Central School’s capital improvement project was voted down in December, the Facilities Planning Committee went back to the drawing board. “We’re at a point in time where the work needs to be done,” said superintendent Laura J.Marlow.

Easter egg hunt coming back for second year By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com ROUSES POINT — It’ll be a mad dash across the lawn of Dodge Memorial Library, as children rush to pick up Easter Eggs, during the second annual Easter Egg Hunt, next Saturday, March 27. Last year ’s event, which featured nearly 700 colored plastic eggs, began as a result of the Friends of the Library wanting more local events. “The only other events are down in Plattsburgh,” explained Mandie Bechard, a library board trustee and liaison between the library and the Friends. “Just to provide something local, that’s a family event.” The event will begin at 10:20 a.m. with an Easter basket raffle, followed by the hunt at 10:30 a.m. sharp, with nearly 2,000 eggs. “Stewart’s, Price Chopper, Rite Aid, and Cor-

public service for several decades. Zurlo’s numerous contributions to civic and nonprofit organizations include the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Rotary International, Kiwanis Club International and the Knights of Columbus, among others. In addition, he has been a member of boards of directors for CVPH Medical Center and St. Mary’s Mission Center, and has served for several years as coordinator of the Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign in the Northern Tier. The retired teacher, husband, and father of two grown children, said he was “overcome” with the recognition and that he has only done what he feels is his duty. “I told my wife when I die I want on my gravestone ‘A Life of Service,’” said Zurlo. “And, that’s what I try to do.” Zurlo has served North Country government for more than 40 years in one capacity or another. He first served as a Champlain town councilman, then as Clinton County Legislator for Area One and most recently as county clerk — a position for which he is now serving his fourth term. “This is where we’ve made our life,” Zurlo said of he and his wife, Mary. “It’s not a bad place to raise a family and to live with good people ... and to serve the people of Clinton County and Northern New York.” “Thank you very much for this honor,” Zurlo told the crowd. “I’ll do my best to make you proud.” Zurlo now joins the ranks of several dozen others who have received the designation of Irishman of the Year since 1959.

Bringing seven decades of music to print Rouses Point’s Marc Mero looks back at our local music history By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com
M
usic has always been a part of Marc Mero’s life. It’s a passion which can be seen in his recently released book “75 Years of Music.” “I was lucky to enough to grow up in a family where my mother and father were both extremely musical,” said Mero, who has lived in Rouses Point his entire life. “All of my grandparents, my aunts, my uncles, everybody played.” Mero, who will be turning 60 in May, said he grew up during an era where people didn’t have televisions. “What we would do is we would play,” he said, who could remember performing music with 30-year-olds when he was just 7 years old.
“I was lucky enough to know all the musicians in the area,” said Mero. For as long as he can remember, Mero said he has been collecting photographs of all of the bands in Clinton County, which he collected in various scrapbooks, until someone suggested he have a book be made based on the photos. “I have over 400 pictures in that book,” he explained. “It’s reminiscent. That’s what it is. It’s a history book ... You can see how music progressed in Clinton County, right from the swing era to country to rock to where we are today.” Mero explained the book can truly apply to anyone. “Everyone that ever heard a band in Clinton County, if you want to see a picture of that band, it’s in that book,” he said. “So, it doesn’t just

apply to musicians.” Bands such as Nap Light from 1939 to The Swing Kings of 1964 to Glass Onion, who still perform in the area today, are featured. “The good thing to me, is so many of my friends wanted these pictures,” Mero said. “Because everybody that played in the band knows everybody in these books, but nobody had all the pictures. Now, if they get the book, they can have all of the pictures of all of their friends and all their bands.” Mero plans to continue collecting photographs “as long as I’m alive,” he said. “I have 56 more pictures ... I’ll let it go until I get a couple of hundred ... and then
there will be a second edition,” Mero explained. If interested in submitting photographs of bands from Clinton County, Mero can be contacted at 297-2433 or by e-mail at mmero@twcny.rr.com. “I think I covered everybody,” Mero said. “Anybody that ever went out to a bar in Plattsburgh, they should be able to find that band in that book.” To get a copy of Mero’s book, it is being sold for $75 in hardcover through Blurb.com or it can be ordered through Border Press in Rouses Point for $27 in paperback. Border Press can be contacted at 297-6214.

he nation has a shortage of skilled technology workers with the shortage predicted to continue. That creates opportunities for students as they select a post-secondary institution. Clinton Community College is home to five technology training programs including Computer Information Systems, Computer Technology, Electronics Technology, Industrial Technology, and Wind Energy and Turbine Technology. Our technology courses are designed with ample lecture and classroom discussion centered on the concepts of a particular topic along with plenty of hands-on time to bolster learning. Students often say hands-on time is most important when learning. The Computer Information Systems/Computer Technology lab is equipped with modern computers, servers, routers and many other tools of the computer trade. It is home to three separate local area networks. Students apply what they learn in the classroom directly to the equipment making learning as realistic as possible. Many electronics courses feature hands-on trainer time with up-to-date test equipment. Early in the program, students build and test simple circuits while advancing to more complex circuits in later courses. The result is a well-round-
ed student with a good level of practical knowledge. Industrial technology students apply classroom knowledge to specialized trainers and mock systems. The program has a custom built instrumentation trainer and others such as a fluid power trainer built for educational purposes. The program also boasts multiple electrical trainers allowing students to build and test industrial circuits. Wind Energy and Turbine Technology is our newest program featuring a blend of actual equipment and trainers that produce experiences relating directly to the real world. By Ron Poland Driven by national interest in renewable energy, we are designing two photo-voltaic courses to be offered soon. Our open house is Saturday, March 27, with registration starting at 9:30 a.m. Please come up, take a tour and see the technology programs first-hand.

o some people, foods high in fiber are like eating twigs and thistles. This is far from the truth. Fiber rich foods are fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes, nuts, whole grains, and even some common foods that are fortified with fiber such as yogurt. Fiber is also called roughage or bulk and is calorie-free. Fiber can be either soluble or insoluble and is essential for good health. Soluble fiber is the part of the plant material that absorbs or dissolves in water and coats the digestive tract with gel, which slows the absorption of sugars and fats. It traps bile salts, which contain cholesterol and carries them out of the body. Therefore, soluble fiber can aid in the treatment of diabetes and high blood cholesterol. Insoluble fiber does not dissolve in water and is the substance that gives plants their structure. It adds bulk to the diet and absorbs water as it travels through the digestive tract and helps to promote regularity and protect against diverticulitis and colon cancer. Most Americans fall short of the recommended 20-25 grams daily. Fiber is not found in animal products such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs or milk.
Good sources of fiber are all fruits and vegetables with edible skins and seeds, dried beans and peas, whole grain or bran cereals, whole wheat or graham crackers, bran, whole wheat, rye or pumpernickel breads, nuts, seeds, oat bran and oat products, barley, corn bran and popcorn. It is best to increase fiber in the diet slowly. It takes time for the digestive tract to adapt. Spread fiber-rich foods throughout the day. Drink plenty of water. The fiber contains complex sugars which may cause gas as they are digested. To avoid this discomfort, food enzyme supplements are available. It is best not to exceed the 35 gram recommendation. Too much fiber can inhibit absorption of important nutrients and lead to discomfort.

Where’s the beef for the coupon shoppers?
“I
’ve been Super-Couponing for about four months now, and I am amazed at how many things I’m getting for free. I don’t think we will ever have to buy another tube of toothpaste or bottle of shampoo again! I have a question on meats specifically. How can I save more on these, too?” Once you’ve cut your grocery bill significantly with coupons, your attention will likely turn to the area this reader asks about — saving on meat. It’s true it’s not always easy to find coupons for meats, but they’re out there at times. A better way is to pay attention to meat prices. The best ways to save on meats are to note the 12-week cycle lows. In past columns, I’ve discussed the grocery store’s price cycle, where everything in the store hits its lowest price point once every 12 weeks. This holds true for meats, too! If you watch and pay attention to the meat prices at your store, you will likely notice a range in price for the same cuts and packages. Once you start to learn the highs and lows, you want to buy meats when they’re at the low end of that cycle. My rule of thumb is the $1.99 mark. Any time a meat cycles at or below that price, whether it’s beef, poultry, pork or seafood, it’s a buy — simply because that’s the cycle low at my local stores. Occasionally it may dip even lower than that. Chicken breasts sometimes will go on sale as cheaply as $1.69/pound, and fish fillets sometimes go down to $1.29/pound — but if we need a particular kind of meat and it’s under $2/pound, it’s time to buy. Then, when that good sale comes around, I’ll look for coupons, too. There indeed are coupons for meats — think of the many brand-name manufacturers that package poultry and pork products. Many of these manufacturers’ Web sites also will have printable coupons at times to further reduce the prices of ground turkey, frozen chicken patties, pork chops or similar products. I also check the wording on coupons for name-brand pre-
packaged deli meats I see in my newspaper inserts. Many times, these coupons will say something like “$1 off prepackaged turkey slices or 1 pound of deli meat.” Many of the same companies that offer packaged meats also sell name-brand meats at the deli counter, and I can enjoy freshly sliced meats at a savings, too. Your store itself may offer meat coupons at times during certain promotions. About three weeks ago, I received a Catalina coupon at the register for beef. It stated “$10 off when you purchase $35 or more of beef at our meat counter.” The coupon’s expiration date was 30 By Jill Cataldo days out. I kept an eye on the steaks, ground beef and other beef products at this store, but they were all cycling very high. Still, I hung onto that coupon though it seemed unlikely to me that I might use this one before it expired. Then this week, the store ran a special on steaks. The steaks, formerly $5.50/pound, were on sale for $1.99/pound. That’s a buy in my book — though it took 18 pounds of steaks to get over the $35 mark! But my 18 pounds of steak, at $35.82, qualified for me to use that valuable $10 coupon, bringing my total for the steaks down to $25.82 — or $1.43/pound! That’s a steal for any meat, especially steaks that were previously priced at more than $5 a pound. If you’re stocking up on meats, just as we stock up on nonperishables, it definitely helps to have a second freezer. Especially with a larger family, I’ve found my chest freezer to be an invaluable tool for stockpiling meats and frozen goods. I can stock up when great meat sales come around, like the one above. Now, we’ll enjoy those steaks for several months, knowing they were purchased at an incredible price! © CTW Features Jill Cataldo, a coupon workshop instructor, writer and mother of three, never passes up a good deal.

How Naval Militia defends Lake Champlain region business,” he added. According to McKnight, a recent operation with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and Border Patrol found “at least one or two unlawful entries.” However, McKnight said most of the people going back and forth are tourists boating on Lake Champlain. “We have had to chase down boats in the past,” McKnight added. McKnight described their operations as a “force multiplier,” or an aid to local law enforcement, rather than an actual law authority. The service signals illegal vessels and directs them toward a Customs or Border Patrol station. “We have become their asset,” he said. This asset is comprised of about 100 people, mostly retired or currently active military service people. According to McKnight, 95 percent are drilling reservists, and 5 percent are either retired veterans or civilian volunteers. The statewide operations include more than 2,400 volunteers, two-thirds of which are within the New York Metropolitan area. The naval militia has also run operations in Staten Island and another near the nuclear reactors at Indian Point.

D
efending Lake Champlain is not easy. Between illegal contraband, unlawful entries and oblivious tourists, it is not a one-man — or one-agency — job. Just ask Donald McKnight, commander of the Military Emergency Boat Service based in Latham, a part of the New York State Naval Militia. The service provides aid to the local Border Patrol on Lake Champlain by intercepting boats crossing the Canadian-U.S. border. “We have year-round, ongoing exercises,” McKnight said. “We wanted to set up a program to inspect 100 percent of the vessels coming into the U.S.” Henry said the sheer numbers involved with patrolling the 295 miles of border in New York call for all the assistance they can get. “We partner with a lot of different state and local agencies,” said Mark Henry, an operations officer with the U.S. Border Patrol based out of Swanton, Vt. “Over the last couple of years, during the summertime, the New York State Naval Militia has been invaluable on Lake Champlain.” “Border Patrol is everybody’s

According to McKnight, if you are a New York State resident, and if you can pass a rigorous military physical test, you can join the militia. However, people with other useful talents can be utilized. “We want people to have a mili-
tary background,” McKnight said. “But, there are exceptions, such as people with special skills.” The New York Naval Militia has “made a difference,” defending Lake Champlain, according to Henry.
For more information on how to join the New York Naval Militia, contact McKnight at 786-4583. Michael O’Keefe is an intern with the State University of New York at Plattsburgh.

decorated uniquely in Morgin’s memory. Many of the cheerleader ’s moms, including myself, also wore pink shirts. It is easy to figure out that pink was Morgin’s favorite color. Morgin’s parents, Rodney and Joanne Baker, were there to show their support, as well as their longtime coach Sara. The competition seemed even tougher this year. It is difficult to say
whether it actually was, or it just seemed to be because the cheerleaders wanted to win so badly. The girls completed their routine, and the crowd exploded with applause in support. But, it was not flawless. Their routine was more difficult than the other squads, but not perfect. When all of the teams were finished competing, the squads sat on the gymnasi-
um floor awaiting the results. They wanted so badly to win for Morgin and the anticipation of the results was heart wrenching. Morgin’s dad even went and sat with the squad while they anxiously waited. When they announced NCCS as the first place team, there were many tears and hugs. The team had won for Morgin. Rodney, Joanne and a few of Morgin’s friends
walked out of the gymnasium together caring pink balloons that had been surrounding a picture of Morgin. As they walked outside they all released them to heaven to be with Morgin. Until we meet again. Joy VanLeuvan is the mother of Jessica VanLeuvan, a student at Northeastern Clinton Central School and former classmate of Morgin Baker.

Week 9—By Martha Breyette (Editors Note: Martha Breyette of Saranac is on a 14week goal to get in shape to compete in the inaugural City of Plattsburgh Half Marathon, Sunday, April 18. Breyette will share her trials and tribulations in this newspaper through a weekly journal entry.)
I
am feeling much better. Yes, I did run the 8 miles — actually it was 8.4. Every little tenth counts these days. I continue to feel stronger and healthier every week. I had the chance to meet some people doing the Biggest Loser challenge in Plattsburgh and was inspired by their drive to make lifestyle changes. I sometimes feel this drive to be healthier is infectious. The more people you talk to, the more you realize there are a lot of people who want to make a difference in their lifestyle routines and habits. It truly does start small and work up. I still have to go day by day — each day I eat well and exercise is an accomplishment for me. I do struggle with challenges of scheduling time to exercise but as long as I make the exercise a priority I win. I find if I put off the exercise I get irritable and disappointed with myself. I never thought exercising would make me happy but it truly does — it helps relieve stress and, most importantly, it helps me feel good about myself. This weekend I am up to 9 miles, so we shall see how that goes. I am learning so much about myself and my limitations. My body is changing shape and that is encouraging. Maybe after all this is done and I get to my ideal weight, I could splurge on a shopping trip!
Avoiding overuse injuries
I
f you are just getting started with a new exercise program or ramping up your current routine, you may be at risk for developing overuse injuries. An overuse injury is any type of muscle or joint injury, such as tendonitis or a stress fracture, that’s caused by repetitive trauma. An overuse injury is usually caused by training or technique errors. Most overuse injuries are avoidable. The following guidelines can help prevent you from being sidelined from you current fitness goals. · Correct muscle imbalances — You may need to correct imbalances in flexibility and strength or, if you’ve had a previous injury, work to restore range of motion, muscle strength and stability. · Use proper form and gear — Using proper technique is crucial in preventing overuse injuries, if you are just getting started in a new sport you may want to take lessons. You should also consider new shoes at least twice a year. · Pace yourself — If you are just getting started, avoid becoming a weekend warrior. Instead of compressing your physical activity into one or two days, spread it out over the week. Always take time to warm up and cool down. Also consider your current activity and don’t be afraid to modify any program to fit your current fitness level. · Gradually increase your activity level — When changing your activity level or the amount of
weight you’re using while strength training, keep it gradual. Keep increases of no more than 10 percent each week until you reach your new goal. · Mix up your routine — Combining different activities, or cross training, allows you to work different muscle groups while resting the others. Consider combining two or more exercises like running, walking, swimming, or biking. Don’t allow overuse injuries to prevent you from being physically active. By listening to your body and pacing yourself, you can avoid this common setback and safely increase your activity level.

Champlain Valley BPW seeks next Young Careerist By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Champlain Valley Business and Professional Women’s Club wants young people to succeed in their professions and continues to make an effort so see that happens. Each year, the organization participates in the Virginia Allan Young Careerist Program, which recognizes and celebrates the accomplishments of young professionals. The program is named for Virginia Allan, past president of Business and Professional Women/USA, the national organization which oversees chapters like the Champlain Valley BPW. Allan initiated the program in 1964 as a way to create a mutually beneficial partnership between young working adults and BPW. According to Champlain Valley
BPW president Vicki L. Marking, the program provides “an opportunity for encouragement, support and recognition of women and men in the early stages of their careers.” “What we want to do is highlight the really high-quality young professionals we do have in the Plattsburgh area,” said Marking. The program, which is open to women and men ages 21-35, invites potential honorees to submit applications and prepare four-minute speeches based on a list of provided subjects, said Marking. The applications are then reviewed by a committee before applicants present their speeches in front of the panel of judges. “We’re really looking for someone who wants to further their career, someone who wants to tweak their writing, their public speaking, their interview skills,” said Marking. “We’re looking for someone who exemplifies the total package
Se e it...
of what a Young Careerist should be.” Kristy M. Kennedy, Plattsburgh, is among the past recipients of the Young Careerist of the Year Award. Kennedy — who received the recognition in 2008 for her speech about how the world would change if a woman were elected president — went on to compete at the regional and national levels. Participating in the program was highly beneficial for her, she said. “I got a lot out of it, even at the local level,” said Kennedy, who has credited the program for providing her with the skill sets that helped her obtain a job as a marketing specialist for the Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce. “It was a confidence-builder. It was just a great tool to learn from.” The critique judges gave Kennedy and her fellow applicants for their speeches, which ultimately helped send Kennedy to nation-
als, was invaluable, she said. “Even for those who didn’t win, there was a lot of positive feedback,” said Kennedy. “The judges were telling you how great this part was or that part was, but also told you where you could strengthen your speech by doing this or that.” “It really encourages you to grow and improve,” she said. And, going on to the national level is something Kennedy hopes all future winners of the award have the opportunity of experiencing. “There are so many contacts you can make; there’s so much to learn,” she said. Earning the title of a Young Careerist is also a great addition to one’s resume and a great experience overall, said event chairperson Julie Kramer. “Gaining this type of speaking experience and being critiqued by other professionals is really so valuable in pursuing your goals,”
she said. “This year promises to be another great event and, hopefully, with even more candidates than last year.” The Champlain Valley BPW is accepting applications until Friday, April 9. The competition — in which applicants will present their speeches — will take place Tuesday, April 20, at the West Side Ballroom on New York Road, beginning at 5:30 p.m. In addition to the opportunity to proceed to the state and national level competitions, the honoree chosen from this year ’s competition will receive a certificate, pin and one-year BPW membership or U.S. savings bond. Applications and more information, including topics of this year ’s speeches may be obtained from Kramer at 561-8383, ext. 104, or juliek@nineplatt.com. 59153

Figure skaters take to the ice for ‘Willy Wonka’ By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Willy Wonka and his lovable band of Oompa Loompas will take center ice next weekend as the Skating Club of the Adirondacks presents “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory Sweeten the Ice.” The nonprofit skating organization will present their performance next Saturday, March 27, at the Plattsburgh State Fieldhouse on Rugar Street. The show, based on the Roald Dahl classic “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” is being put on as the club’s annual fundraiser, said director Gayle Roy-Collin. Though Willy Wonka is a new show for the club to perform, the club has experience with on-ice productions, Roy-Collin noted. “We used to showcase skaters with programs and solos, but years ago we came together as a club and decided we wanted to involve the community more with something like a play on
ice,” said Roy-Collin, who added the club has performed more than a dozen such shows. “This year, we thought Willy Wonka would be a good choice because it shows each character learns a good moral,” Roy-Collin added. The skating club’s approximately 180 members — ranging from toddlers to adults — have been rehearsing diligently in recent weeks to prepare for next Saturday, said Roy-Collin. “And, we’ve got members from Rouses Point, Champlain, Peru, Elizabethtown, Plattsburgh,” said Roy-Collin. “They stream in from many different places in the area.” The performers will skate to narration by WPTZ Newschannel 5’s Tom Messner and music coordinated through Entertainment Unlimited. Local musician Benjamin Bright, most recently known for his appearances on Fox’s American Idol, is also part of the show this year, giving a live performance. The show will include music for people of all ages, said Roy-
Collin, and even include a rap version of the “Oompa Loompa Song.” “We have some very interesting aspects to the show,” she said. “We try to go a different way every year just to try to add something different.” “We’re also going to have a surprise dropping from the ceiling but I’m not going to say what it is,” she added, wanting to create an element of mystery. The skating club will host two performances next Saturday, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Each show will run approximately two hours and include an intermission. General admission is $7 for adults and $5 for senior citizens and ages 4-10. Children ages 3 and younger will be admitted free. Tickets are available from cast members in advance or at the door prior to each performance. Proceeds will assist the skating club with paying for ice time at the Plattsburgh State Fieldhouse, where the club practices regularly during the season.

Farmers will receive a standard forage analysis (valued at $16) from the Dairy One Forage Lab in Ithaca for each entry. Forage samples will be judged on a county-bycounty and a regional basis for forage quality
analysis and the milk per ton calculation based on the University of Wisconsin MILK2006 program. The top-rated samples in each county will receive $50 cash prizes with a $200 cash award presented to the NNY regional winner from all six counties for non-BMR corn silage and haylage/baleage.

She explained the school is in a “crisis situation” in terms of their heating and plumbing, and is in need of other improvements such as technology and security. The next vote will be held this Monday, March 22, from 12-8 p.m. Polling places are Altona Town Hall, 3124 Miner Farm Road; Churubusco Town Hall, 23 Smith St., NAC Middle-High School, 5586 Route 11; and Lyon Mountain Fire Station, 9 Fire House Road. The ballot will contain two proposals — Proposition 1 and Proposition 2. For Proposition 1, the original project was scaled back from $35.9 million to $7.9 million, which will be at no cost to taxpayers. “Proposition 1, of course, is dealing with all the infrastructure work, the technology, the security, all the health and safety issues,” explained Marlow. “This project is not normal maintenance,” she added. “The things that need to be done are really at the end of their physical life. The beauty of it is this will be covered entirely by state building aid and EXCEL aid.” However, Proposition 2 will add a multipurpose gym, concession stand, and fieldaccessible toilets, which will be a small tax increase for taxpayers, and an added $1,911,000 to Proposition 1 renovations. Proposition 1 must past, in order for Proposition 2 to go through, which would have a slight impact on taxpayers. For a $75,000 home, the tax increase equates to $19.08 annually for STAR Exemption. “What [Proposition 2] does is a lot of our students are staying very late to get gym space for practicing and such,” Marlow explained. “That would have a minimal tax impact.” Marlow understands why some taxpayers are skeptic of the project. “I was always brought up where there’s no such thing as a free lunch,” she said. “I think that people are saying to themselves, ‘How can there possibly be free money, or money out there, to do this? Especially when we know what’s happening in Albany, when we know the economic situation in the state of New York,’ and my response to that is ... aid is out there because the state wants us to be able to continually maintain our school buildings.” Marlow further explained the state would rather see buildings maintained, instead of crumbing down and in a position where they need to be completely rebuilt. “It really is in the state’s best interest to continue to provide this money to maintain the schools,” she said. “If our school doesn’t use it, then other schools in New York State will use it. We’re all New York State taxpayers, so my feeling is that I would like to see us be able to use the money for the students in our district.” If Proposition 1 does not go through, the money from the school’s budget would have to be used to fix some of the immediate problems. “Hopefully, we won’t have to go that route,” said Marlow.

ADIRONDACK OUTDOORS • NORTH COUNTRYMAN - 11
Big pike caught in Schroon derby; fur prices on the rise went to Nichole Plumstead of Schroon Lake with 7.13 pounds and 28 inches. • Salmon — Second place went to Mike Flaherty of Round Top with 2.32 pounds and 19 inches and third place went to Cody Dunlavy of Queensbury with 2.10 pounds and 18 inches. The Ice Auger raffle was won by Marline Powers and Jim Robbins of Schroon Lake. The Pack Basket and Sled raffle was won by Brad Bordeau of Moriah. The Schroon Lake Class of 2012 50-50 raffle was won by Chris Meduri of Schroon Lake and the Fish and Game Club 50-50 raffle was won by Brandon Stuart of Townsend, MA. Club president Don Sage said the club would like to thank all the volunteers, donators, and contestants who contributed to making this a very successful and enjoyable weekend. “We invite everyone back to next year's, the 19th derby, held on the first weekend of March, and bring your friends. Hope to see you all next year. Visit us online at www.schroonlakefishandgameclub.com,” he said.
Fur prices on the mend As a kid growing up in the Adirondacks, my mornings before school and my evenings after were consumed with the outdoors. I ran a rather extensive trapline for beaver, otter, mink and muskrat as well

as land animals like fox and coyote. It served as a great deterrent to some of the mischief other kids were getting involved in and, at times, proved quite lucrative. “The best thing about trapping is you’ll always have a buck in your pocket,” my uncle Ed used to say. Unfortunately, those days became a thing of the past. Fur prices dropped so low, that I couldn’t justify taking the animal for what trappers were being paid. I was never in it for the money, but the fur prices were downright insulting. It now appears that is changing. Fur prices are slowly climbing closer to what they were 20 years ago. Here is a glimpse at how much fur was selling for on average in February, according to the Fur Harvesters Association. Muskrat was the real highlight, selling at an $8.50 average. Beaver pelts landed at $21 each with a high of $72 and a low of $14, while raccoon held ranges of $13-$22 based on grading. Coyote prices came in at the $30-$35 range — a 36 percent increase over last year — and eastern red fox rose noticeably above last season's levels to $31. Grey fox performed well, gaining buyer attention at $20 each. Otter, one of the most poorly performing pelts over the past few seasons, returned to acceptable pricing at an average of $42. Fisher remained a popular item for buyers, with a typical fur selling at $62.

t was a record breaking turnout for the 18th annual Schroon Lake Fish and Game Club ice fishing derby March 6 - 7, with 567 people coming out to participate under warm sunny skies. Unfortunately fishermen weren’t the only ones being warmed by the 50 degree mid-day sun. Unseasonable ice conditions followed and the event was marked by a truck, Jeep and 4-wheeler plunging through the ice just south of the narrows. Thankfully, no one was hurt and the competition continued. When it was all said and done, Jeremiah Millington of Warrensburg had bragging rights with a nearly 20-pound northern he said he caught “somewhere on the lake.” The fish measured 43 inches. Other first place fish included a 8.65 pound, 30-inch laker caught by Mike Winters of Gansevoort; a 2.63 pound, 20-inch landlock caught by Jerry Smith III of Schroon Lake; a 1.5 pound perch caught by David Disonell, Sr. of Hannacroix and a 4.2 pound, 26-inch pickerel caught by Richard Wagner of Avon, CT. The remaining contest winners included: • Northern Pike — Brian Hall of Bolton Landing, second place with 9.04 pounds and 33 inches. Third place went to Kevin Duntley of North Hudson with 8.11 pounds and 32 inches. • Lake Trout — Second place went to Darrell Clark of Schroon Lake with 7.23 pounds and 28 3/4 inches and third place
