LOVE MY PARK
This Week GOING DIGITAL
By Shaun Kittle
shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ A place like Point au Roche State Park means a lot of things to a lot of people. The park has more than 10 miles of trails that weave through forests, meadows and prime lakeshore vistas, making it a haven for hikers, kayakers, anglers, and nature enthusiasts of all ages. On Saturday, May 4, the Friends of Point au Roche, a not-for-profit organization that works to protect, preserve and promote the park, will host a day of nature-fueled activities to celebrate I Love My Parks Day. The day will begin with a bird watching walk led by Judith Heintz at 8 a.m., followed by a 5K run at 9 a.m. CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

PLATTSBURGH Ñ A local teen received the ultimate set of equipment to prepare him for his dream job as a photographer through the Make-A-Wish foundation. Andrew WaldronÕ s wish for photography gear was granted on World Wish Day April 29. Make-A-Wish of Northeast New York gave Andrew, 18, professional-quality camera equipment for use in college next fall, where he will be studying photojournalism. Ò He knew we were going to get him a camera but I donÕ t think he knew we would be getting him all the equipment a professional would have,Ó said Tim Riley, manager of communications for Make-A-Wish of Northeast New York. Waldron said he was really excited after opening multiple boxes at a special “gift giving” ceremony at Melissa Penfield Park. Waldron received a Nikon camera, books, multiple lenses and flashes to go with his new camera, a new camera bag and an opportunity to go with a local newspaper photographer for the day and see how they do their job. Ò He had actually considered several wishes before choosing

‘Go Digital or Go Dark’ campaign under way By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID Ñ Almost 200 people made their way into the main screening room at the Palace Theatre in Lake Placid April 26 to help launch a campaign to keep small town movie cinemas in the Adirondack region alive. The Ò Go Digital or Go DarkÓ Campaign, a collaborative fundraiser between the Adirondack North Country Association and the Adirondack Film Society, started with a premiere of a Ò movie trailerÓ that will be shown in local theaters about their need to convert from film to digital technology since movie companies will stop sending out film reels within the next six months. Ò This is something that is directly aligned and will impact local economies,Ó ANCA Executive Director Kate Fish said. Ò We want to raise enough money to help our small theaters transfer. We cannot imagine our small towns without these theaters, and we feel that this is something that these communities can get behind. We are going to make sure that every local theater can make this transition.Ó Fish said that for the four-screen setup at the Palace Theatre in Lake Placid, it would take about $300,000 for a complete changeover of all screens. Ò RegÕ s (Clark) goal is to get one of the theaters changed over as soon as they can and then work on the rest,Ó said Naj Wikoff, who has worked with the film society on the issue. “However, then you have the theaters that have only one screen and this is life or death to them. We want this to succeed for all of them. If we fail, then every single theater in the Ad-

irondacks could close.Ó The 10 theaters that have come together to take part in the campaign include the Palace, the Hollywood in Au Sable Forks, Cinematheque in South Glens Falls, The Glen Drive In of Queensbury, the Indian Lake Theater, the Ogdensburg Cinema and the Adirondack State Theater in Tupper Lake, along with a trio of Strand Theaters located in Old Forge, Schroon Lake and Plattsburgh. Ò A lot of people said that something has to be done,Ó said John Huttlinger, president of the Adirondack Film Society. Ò Sen. Betty Little called in the folks at ACNA to help coordinate this fundraising effort for these theaters.Ó Between showings of the trailer, people were asked to talk about their experiences going to the movies at
their local theater. Ò I grew up on Main Street right across from the Hollywood,Ó said Jay Town Supervisor and Essex County Board Chairman Randy Douglas. Ò There are a lot of first dates and a lot of memories that come when you think about these local theaters. People also surround their evening going to the movies with dinner and other events that help out all of the local businesses that surround that theater.Ó Ò (The people in) my cabin on Silver Lake won a trip to come to Lake Placid and see Star Wars,Ó said Aaron Woolf, who co-created the trailer for the campaign. Ò Going to the theater really is a community experience. Seeing a film is collective and we want the next generation in our North Country towns and villages to have that experience.Ó The trailer will play in the 10 theaters that are part of the campaign, said ANCA Communications Director Melissa Hart, who added that there will be a number of ways people can donate to the cause. Ò There will be pledge cards at the theaters, envelopes to mail in pledges and there will also be bar codes that can be scanned by smart phones to make donations through,Ó Hart said. Fish added that people can either donate to a specific theater or to the overall campaign, which is also seeking corporate partners and donors along with help from state agencies. Ò Empire State Development is looking to create some bridge loans for the theaters,Ó she said. For more information on the Go Digital or Go Dark campaign, visit the website adirondack.org/GoDigital, where you can also see the trailer created for the local theaters.

Not the time for petty politics Common sense, political convenience
I
f you want the type of finger-pointing and sabre-rattling that often comes with state and federal government, then look no further than the small Essex County town of Elizabethtown. Over the past year-and-a-half, a constant battle between the current administration and members of the ousted old guard have exchanged a firestorm of accusations and inuendo at board meetings, through letters to the editor and other avenues. In the most recent exchange, former town board member Ken Fenimore requested, through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIL), the endof-year financial records of the town from current supervisor Margaret Bartley. Bartley and the town complied with the request and sent Fenimore the documents. One critical mistake was made, however. The financial information was handed over with account numbers to the townÕ s reserves listed for all to see. The bank statements were then posted at the Elizabethtown Post Office along with remarks criticizing the town board. Fenimore later admitted to posting the information. A post office employee removed the documents, only to find them re-posted the next day. This is the most recent example of a battle between the old regime and the new blood that has been taking place since the 2011 election, when Bartley edged Merrihew, 254-238, for the position of supervisor. Merrihew was gracious in defeat, but some supporters were not, including a handful of party faithful who went so far as to blame this newspaper for the loss. Since that time, banter has gone back and forth over several topics with each side having a cadre of supporters. Topics have included the legality of town meetings under the Open Meetings Law; the handling of the Otis Bridge removal; a land deal between the county and Bartley along with her husband, Harry Gough; the management of the townÕ s sewer project; the budget process and the handling of the town’s finances. There should always be room to seek answers from political officials and bring “sunlight” to government proceedings. We, the people, have the right to know what our elected officials are doing with our tax dollars and how they are leading our towns, counties, states and country. Disagreement can occur, as people have differing opinions, leadership styles, backgrounds and trains of thought. When disputes arise, leaders should then come together and solve the problems with debate and compromise, one not being effective without the other. Look no further than the recently signed contract between the Essex County employees
union, CSEA, and the county, where both sides openly admitted that they did not get everything they wanted, but came to a compromise with the best interest of all involved. In this case, however, the battle lines that have been drawn have seldom been solely about only the issues. The tone of letters and statements from both camps has increasingly turned personal, sarcastic and even a little hateful toward one another. The monthly call-and-response that is playing out on local editorial pages has devolved into a Ò are too, are not,Ó name-calling, playground war of words. While some of the participants in this dance have maintained the high road, others exited that path and the time has come for this senseless squabble to end. What is playing out is the type of politics that we find unacceptable in Washington and in Albany, with people unwilling to lose themselves in the greater good and instead placing more emphasis on the letter that follows their last names. People engaged in government need to be less concerned with party politics and more concerned with the politics of the people. ThatÕ s when work gets done, when people work together and set aside their personal agenda for the common good. That doesnÕ t happen under a Hatfield vs. McCoy clash for power. Local politics is for many of our youth their first experience with public service and presents them with their first impression on how to conduct ones self in public. ItÕ s important to learn how to express your views and how to cooperate with those of different views. Public servants must learn to work together for the good of the people they serve. Petty and vindictive battles like Elizabethtown is experiencing only serve to create further discord within the community rather than pride in the performance of the community uniting despite differences. At the same time, there is one thing we will never do and that is stifle the debate by refusing to publish letters from Mrs. Bartley or Mr. Fenimore, as some have suggested. Letters to the editor are one of the few places where people can have an open conversation on the issues of the day and not hide behind a screenname or anonymous post. Whether you agree or disagree with the opinion, people who write letters are more likely to do one thing than those who hide behind anonymity Ñ think before pressing send. WeÕ d just like to see the time wasted on these personal vendettas spent instead on the greater good of the people of Elizabethtown. Ñ

North Countryman - 5
Style and Substance: In the heat of the argument Dear style & substance: I have a few friends that take up the whole conversation when we go out together, when I talk with them on the phone, or am out running errands. Can you help me find some way to shut this down in the early stages, in a very nice way of course, they are my friends and I do care about their lives! Sometimes though, I wonder if that feeling is shared and I would like somebody to ask me how I am? We like to call these people Ò monologuersÓ versus the real conversationalists, Ò dialoguersÓ . There are different types of monologuersÉ some talk over others so one canÕ t get a word in edgewise while with others, you could actually set the phone down on the counter and walk away and they would never know the difference! They donÕ t seem to read body language and are quite oblivious to the Ò signalsÓ that we are giving. With this in mind, you can take the lead and make your Ò signalsÓ stronger. So, what to do? Most listeners (like you) are quite respectful and caring, but friendships are all about sharing and relating from both sides. If a dialogue is considered to be an exchange of ideas and opinions, then how do you make this happen? With these talkers, we generally get into the robot mode of nodding, Ò ummmhmmingÓ and ending it after 30 minutes, by saying that Ò I need to runÓ . While this seems to be the nicest response, it does not at all modify the behavior. It actually is a form of positive reinforcement. Here are some of our ideas, to get you started and acting on this: • Adding surprising comments that unexpectedly halt a monologue are something with which you can experiment. EXAMPLES: Ò Sorry to interrupt but I heard the most interesting story today and immediately thought of you.Ó (then tell a short story) Another way to halt a monologue is to ask a question of the speaker. Remember, you are ultimately trying to retrain this person into listening to you and engaging in your life, as they have that expectation of you. • If they don’t seem to notice that they are monopolizing the conversation, who’s to say that they would notice a daring change in the conversation. You may need to ramp up your approach. Saying something like, Ò hey, I meant to tell youÉ Ó or Ò I am making plans to É . and would like to include youÓ or Ò I wanted to talk to you about something, but we seem to have run out of timeÓ are
all sentence starters that have the potential to leave the talker actually wondering and wanting to listen. • You can be quite radical in your approach and start the conversation before the Ò monologuerÓ gets going. You may have to cut off the speaker; however, you can direct the conversation so it is just that, a dialogue, a conversation, an exchange of ideas. You are now setting the stage for real and meaningful exchanges with the people whom you most want to connect. With all problems, having a plan of action ahead of time is the first key to success. Trial and error is the second.

Hockey team expresses thanks
Sad to see all the pollution here
To the North Countryman: The 2012-13 Plattsburgh Youth Hockey 16U Boys Midget team was formed with the simple purpose of giving local hockey players the opportunity to play some additional games around their respective high school schedules. The team was made up of players from PHS/Seton, Lake Placid, Beekmantown, Saranac/Peru, and Saranac Lake high schools, who came together and developed a respectful and determined team spirit which resulted in a second place finish in the NYS Tier II Championships, earning them a trip to the USA Hockey 16U Tier II National Championships in Troy, Michigan, where they represented the North Country very well. The team could not have achieved their successes without the support of many local individuals, organizations, and businesses whose generous contributions made the season and the trip to the National Championship possible. The players, coaches, and parents would like to extend a sincere Ò Thank YouÓ to the following: the PYH Board of Directors, Lake Placid Youth Hockey, Fountain Brothers American Legion Post 1619, Post 1619 Sons of the Legion, Post 1619 Auxiliary Unit, American Legion Riders, Plattsburgh Police Local 812, NYSCOPBA Adirondack, Cadyville Gulf DEP, GirouxÕ s Poultry Farm, Mold-Rite Plastics, Lake Placid Pub & Brewery, Plattsburgh Lodge of Elks #621, Rick Lamberton (Jreck Subs), Stephen Tahy (Tahy Real Estate), Rick Young (Young Lyon Floor Covering), Ameri-Can North Sports Center, ORDA, Reg & Barbara Clark, the Craig Ormsby family, Billy Joe & Pearl Leopard, Jenn Lord, Irene & Mike Rock, Billy Jette, Carl McClusker, Tom Carlsen, Norma Goff, and George Caswell & Patty Plumadore.

To the North Countryman: I moved to Willsboro five years ago. I moved there because as I child I spent summers in Willsboro, and fell in love with the pristine beauty of The Adirondack Mountains, Lake Champlain and all of what the surrounding area had to offer someone like myself who is a lover of the mountains and the unspoiled beauty of nature which the Adirondack park is known for. Since moving here however I have noticed a growing, and very disturbing problem with my otherwise beautiful town. That problem is pollution, and the level of the problem is quite shocking and alarming. I live in a small community of homes on Willsboro point which is a peninsula surrounded on three sides by Lake Champlain, and Willsboro bay, respectfully. On my daily walks with my dog I have noticed an ever increasing level along the roads in the woods, and in the drainage trenches which flow into culverts and eventually directly into Lake Champlain. This pollution includes beer cans and bottles, household garbage, tires, food wrappers and containers, used, soiled diapers and even one spot where a local family has made a habit of dumping their kitty litter, complete with kitty turds, into the drainage trench on the side of the road on a regular basis. Again these drainage culverts flow direcly into lake Champlain. ItÕ s almost at the point where IÕ m afraid to walk my dog because of a fear of what he may scoop up with his mouth if if IÕ m not paying close attention to everything he sniffs. Not to mention the damage thatÕ s being done to the eco system, such as the soil the ground water, and the wildlife. The disturbing part is that this pollution is not the work of out of towners, or seasonal visitors, but of the residents who live here. When I was very young I learned that polluting the environment was not O.K. We were taught both at home and in school the damage that pollution does not only to the ecosystem, but to our health, and the health of our loved ones, our pets, and our wild life. Unfortunately the type of pollution that IÕ m seeing seems to be the work of adults rather than young uninformed children, ie. alcoholic beverage containers, household trash, tires, diapers, cat litter etc. I have lived in Southern New York most of my life in an urban area, and also spent some time living in urban Tampa Florida. I have never seen, in any community that I have lived in this level of pollution. The fact that no one is addressing it is even more disturbing. I have notified the local government, the EPA and the DEC on several occasions, and to my knowlege nothing has been done to address the problem. The garbage and the cat litter continue to pile up. I recently had a friend visit me from Florida. I was eager to show off the unspoiled beauty of my beloved Adirondack Park and Lake Champlain, but was quickly mortified when taking her for a walk down to the Lake shore the first thing she remarked on was how Ò disgustingÓ all the garbage on the side of the road was, and she couldnÕ t believe that people would discard their trash in such a way and also that it is left there to rot into the ground, and flow into the lake. Needless to say I was mortified. IÕ m sure that as a community there must be something that can
Walk of Hope, Spring Fest scheduled To the North Countryman: The ALS Raising Hope Foundation is excited to share that we will be hosting the Walk of Hope and Spring Festival on Saturday, May 25, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. with registration at 8 a.m. in Trinity Park, Plattsburgh to support research for cures for neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS, Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, Parkinson’s, and more. Dr. Merit Cudkowicz, Chief of Neurology at MGH, is joining us and kindly will be available for questions. She believes that collaboration across disciplines and fields holds answers and says that Ò we have the talent and ability to innovate in ways that can redefine our field. So let’s aim for the stars.Ó Our support can fuel research to save our loved ones. We welcome you to join us in this quest to fund cures. The Dalai Lama is credited with saying, Ò If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.Ó I think he would genuinely love to see all that is accomplished in the North Country by generous, ordinary people who make a huge difference with their support of charitable causes. We have a great group of volunteers working to make this a wonderful day filled with activities and opportunities to contribute. And if you would like to volunteer we will gladly accept your help. It is easy to join an existing team, start your own team, or to make a donation by visiting wwwalsraisinghoge.org. You may also send requests or questions to d|ong722@gmail.com, or to Darlene Long at 976 Fuller Road in Peru, New York. Shel Silverstein thoughtfully wrote, Ò Listen to the mustnÕ ts, child. Listen to the dontÕ s. Listen to the shouldntÕ s, the impossibles, the wonÕ ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me.. Anything can happen, child.

be done about this. Perhaps a community clean up day where volunteers could organize and help clean our community, along with efforts to inform the public with some type of educational campaign to help people understand that when they pollute the envireonment they are not only making their community look ugly, but they are endangering the health and welfare of themselves and their loved ones. Perhaps even posting signs that would discourage the pollution, or maybe putting out trash recepticles along some of the streets that are seriously affected to save people the trouble of having to carry their trash home and dispose of it properly, and also to make it easier for pedestrians and passers by to pick up trash and dispose of it as they pass by and notice it. This is supposed to be a protected area. A designated state park where nature is meant to be protected, preserved, and enjoyed by residents and visitors. Unfortunately, the streets and roads surrounding the area where I live are some of the filthiest I have ever seen. I would like to see an effort made by my local government, members of my community, and any local agency or stewardship group to address and take steps to correct this growing and disturbing problem. William Rock Willsboro
Respect the flag during parades To the North Countryman: The great American tradition of parades is almost upon us again. There is another great American tradition, that of respect for that which deserves it. Who can deny the stirring of the breast on hearing the marching band or seeing the flying of the American Flag of the Color Guard smartly marching down the street leading the parade. What is disheartening though, is not to see respect for the flag that our veterans have fought and died for. Twenty years ago, it would be unheard of to see the flag passing and not rise to your feet and remove your hat in salute to this symbol of liberty. Today, sitting and wearlng of headgear is all too commonplace on the parade routes. Please, go, enjoy the parade, but for all veterans both alive and deceased, and all that they fought and died for, remove your hat, stand quietly with your hand over your heart and show how much we appreciate our freedom and the symbol of that freedom in our flag - Old Glory. Long may she wave and long may we respect her and fight for her freedom. Richard Cutting Essex County Sheriff Elizabethtown

Start 12:01am Fridayy - End 12:00pm p (Noon) Sundayy
LAS VEGAS Ñ Members of the manufactured and modular housing industries gathered April 17 at an awards luncheon to recognize individuals and companies for outstanding achievements. Plattsburgh Housing Outlet Inc., owned by Eric and Michelle LaBounty of Plattsburgh, received the Retail Sales Center of the Year award for the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic region. Entries were judged based on an entry statement, management philosophy, retail center aesthetics, marketing materials and community and industry involvement. Plattsburgh Housing Outlet has been building quality, affordable homes in upstate New York and northern Vermont since 1991. The LaBountys have been recognized by the Foundation of CVPH and the Ronald McDonald House of Burlington, Vt., for their community service efforts. They were also recognized for their no-cost no-obligation home building workshop series, offered each year to educate interested buyers. This is the second time Plattsburgh Housing Outlet has been named retail sales center of the year. The couple received the award in 2003, just three years after purchasing the business. The National Industry Awards, presented during the 2013 National Congress and Expo for Manufactured and Modular Housing, recognized the highest achievers from all sectors of the manufactured and modular housing industries. Ò These award winners demonstrate the strong spirit of the industry in the way they operate their business. These industry role models have made significant contributions to the industry and are leading the way in providing outstanding customer service, products, value, creative solutions and state of the art homes for todayÕ s homebuyers. They are being recognized today for their vision, dedication and energy in enhancing and moving the manufactured and modular housing industries forward,Ó said MHI President & CEO Richard Jennison. MHI is the preeminent national trade association for the manufactured and modular home businesses, representing all segments of these industries before Congress and the Federal government. From its Washington, D.C. area headquarters, MHI actively works to promote fair laws and regulation for all MHI members and the industry.

Connected by natural rhythms West Kill NY, Home of Art Flick, trout fisherman extraordinare!
Wanderlust A
M
ost rivers and streams are still running high, with waterconnected by natural rhythms. Although recent weather patterns been a bit less cooperative than expected based on recent years, it appears the spring is finally marching on. I must admit that I have gotten used to enjoying the accelerated arrival of spring, which seems to have come along earlier every year. I guess I was spoiled last year, when the ponds were free of ice in time for the opening of trout season, on April 1. In most years, the trout season doesnÕ t even begin to heat up until the middle of May, usually on or about the Mothers Day weekend; but this year, it seems to be adhering to the norm. Although a majority of the regionÕ s ponds have been ice free for nearly two weeks, water temperatures are still lingering in the 40’s, and the fishing has been rather slow. In this regard, the date on the calendar is never as reliable as the indications provided by the natural calendar. What is likely the most obvious sign of good fishing, is evidence of blood trickling from behind an anglerÕ s ear, a sure indication that the black flies have sprouted teeth. And there are plenty others signs, ranging from ferns still in the fiddlehead stage to witchhobble bushes beginning to sprout leaves that are about the size of a mouse’s ears. Most of these observations are based more on experience or coincidence rather than true science, and yet they tend to hold water. Blackflies do not appear until water temperatures begin to warm, and when water temperatures are conducive to hatching out blackflies, they are usually producing a wide assortment of other fly hatches. And most anglers understand that trout like to eat flies. As the local waters continue to warm, and the fish become more active, so too have the hatchery trucks. Although trout stocking has already begun, there are still many truckloads yet to be deposited in the local waters. Although snowmelt and heavy rains have already swollen the rivers and streams several times, the local waters are now very manageable for wading, and paddling. After a few days with air temperatures in the 70Õ s, the rivers will likely turn on and weÕ ll begin to see some of the first hatches of the season. The spring season is always a good time to be on the water, whether in a canoe, a boat or in a pair of waders. Having a fishing rod in hand is simply a bonus, and for many a camera or a pair of binoculars serves the same purpose as long as it gets us out in the natural environment.
Nature is the Wonder Drug
There are many reasons to explain why humans always feel better in the spring. Much of it involves the lengthening hours of daylight, and the benefits of increasing sunlight, which provides Vitamin D. The weather becomes warmer, the days are longer and the rebirth of the earth is evident across the entire landscape. But it isnÕ t just the physical aspects of the season that have people feeling better. In many cases, it is the natural world which is likewise coming out of hibernation, and as we view the daily arrival of birds, bugs, and animals, the greening of the grass and the budding of the surrounding forests, it affects our psyche. Simply put, we feel better both physically and mentally. Increasingly, there is growing scientific evidence that being exposed to and in contact with the natural environment makes us smarter, happier and healthier, and itÕ s never been more evident than in the spring. Scientists and physicians are slowly beginning to rec-
ll my life I have loved the adventure of traveling. I have tasted the salty air off Nova ScotiaÕ s coast, enjoyed the agricultural perfume in Iowa, and watched the sun set off the coast of British Columbia from Vancouver Island. IÕ ve been stabbed by cactus in Texas, hunted wild pheasants on the prairie lands in South Dakota, west of the Missouri River of course. I was bow hunting Elk in Colorado on September 11th when our country changed and have fished the limestone streams of Pennsylvania. Growing up near the Great Lakes, I had the opportunity to fish for walleyes By Rich Redman in Lake Erie, and kings in Lake Ontario. I hope each and every one of you have a chance to see Lady LibertyÕ s beauty. We live in a beautiful country and continent. My business of grazing and wildlife consulting, along with this writing gig, has given me the opportunity to travel some more. The past few days I went south to the Schoharie River Valley. The drive followed the Schoharie River from the Mohawk River upstream to Lexington NY. The flooding damage that happened to that beautiful valley is unbelievable. There must be 100 miles or more of stream bank damage. There are hundreds of acres of dismembered trees, up-rooted trees and piles of steel, plastic and other debris pulled from the river during cleanup. The Schoharie River is running a bloody chocolate color due to the red clays in the valley washed from the eroding banks. Despite all the damage, life goes on. I saw a John Deere pulling a corn planter, cutting a slot into the flood plain gravel soils and planting seed for the next generation of grain or silage corn. The valley is home to some beautiful farms, both dairy and vegetable operations. My initial goal of the trip was to work with two farms on grazing management plans; one a 65 head Jersey dairy farm, and the other a 50 head Angus beef operation; both hillside farms. My second goal was to see the West Kill in Lexington. On my drive down I noticed numerous large hillside fields, laid out in strips. Strip cropping is alternating strips of an annual crop planted parallel to a perennial crop such as hay. The strips are laid out on the contour of the hillside. The goal is to reduce erosion by having a sod crop planted that stops the erosion action of the water running off the hillside. The steeper the field, the narrower the strip needs to be. Most of our fields in the Champlain Valley are fairly flat so there is little strip cropping done here, although I have laid out strips in Essex County and on the hillside farms of Washington County. Cruising south on routes 30, then 145, and numerous others, I finally got to Prattsville and then to Lexington. The West Kill empties into the Schoharie River at Lexington. These are the home waters of Art Flick, the man who wrote the book, Streamside Guide. In the fly fishing world, Art Flick is the Mickey Mantle with a fly rod, the best in his field. To fly fishing stream walkers, he is the guru of the Red Quill; a fly tied that imitates Ephemerella Subvaria; a mayfly. Yes, were back on fly fishing again. Did we ever leave? The hatch of the mayfly is what a dry fly fisherman thrives on. Being on a river when there is a hatch coming off and fish are rising is a Van Gogh in my world! I got to visit and feel one of the places you read about and it was good. I saw the junction where the two rivers mate, and become one. I envisioned Art Flick with his black rimmed glasses and Joe Friday style brush cut casting a dry fly to one of the pools in the upper Schoharie. I breathed the air of the Catskills. The visit was also a little disappointing. The waters were turbid, stream banks a mess and the villages along the river in many instances were trying to recover. The illusional vision I had in my head about the place was not in tune with the real world. I was happy though; I accepted reality and checked off another bucket list item on my adventure list. The second day of the trip took me to the second farm; an Angus beef operation. After my visit with the farmer I was homeward bound, or so I thought. The pull of the Battenkill was too much to resist, so off I drove over Route 29 eastward, through Saratoga, then Greenwich to Cambridge and finally to Hickory Hill Road. Years ago I worked with the landowner doing woodcock and grouse habitat improvement projects. I planted hundreds of wildlife trees and worked in clear cuts done for early successional habitat. The area had grown up in the last 25 years. It wasnÕ t until I saw a familiar name posted on the side of the cabin that I knew I was in the right spot. The property bordered the Battenkill, just a few miles from the Vermont border. I fished a catch and release area for the last few warm hours of light left in the day. The water was fast and cold; 42 degrees, no hatches yet and I had miles to go. The drive home took me through Arlington, then north to Manchester and yes along another trout stream; the Mettawee, which runs through Vermont and into New York at Granville, slowly working its way to Whitehall and finally merging with Lake Champlain. I made it home that night; two long days on the road, going from sun up to sundown, self-inflicted of course, with 497.3 miles on the odometer. A marathon trip taking me to farmland, forests and famous trout streams. Out of this adventure I met two great farmers, have two grazing jobs, made a visit to Art Flick country, visited a total of four famous trout streams and have an article. I took the time to enjoy my wanderlust life, and you should too! The radio stations were playing George Jones songs; a tribute to his life, which ended that very day I lived mine to the fullest. R.I.P. George!

ognize and understand the essential impacts of nature on human health. They have come to understand that the outdoors is Ô big medicine,Õ which is not really recent news to many of the worldÕ s aboriginal peoples. However, it is breaking news among many among the so called civilized societies. For too many years, humans have taken nature for granted, and have failed to appreciate the value of our natural relationship with the world surrounding our communities. We often fail to realize that we are still directly dependent upon the natural environment, as has been graphically illustrated by the numerous catastrophic weather events, including those that have devastated the North Country in recent years. We cannot learn to value humanity without attaching a value to nature, for we are inextricably linked. We learn to appreciate nature only if we understand the value of our relationship with it. And therein lies the collective problem, which has become so evident in recent years. As a society, we have come to believe that we are no longer directly dependent on the natural world. In many cases, we have allowed ourselves to become so consumed by the virtual world, that we are no longer connected to the wild side of the earth. Although our current generation is surely the most connected in the history of mankind, they are also the most disconnected generation in terms of realizing the benefits of the natural world. Richard Louv, author of the bestseller, Last Child in the Woods, as well as The Nature Principal, has offered up seven basic concepts to help individuals reshape their lives by tapping into the restorative powers of nature. In the process of restoring natural connections people can increase mental acuity and creativity, promote health and wellness, build smarter and more sustainable businesses, communities and economies, and ultimately strengthen human bonds. IÕ ve witnessed this process happening in many Adirondack communities, where many are fortunate to still have a feel the natural rhythms of life. However, it is important that a similar commitment is made to ensure that future generations also understand and learn to value rhythms of a similar tune. Otherwise, there goes the neighborhood. It is afterall, a key component of our heredity.

I’m really interested in the design and fitting all sorts of fragmented imagery into it. So I might reference some nature, some landscape, and I might even reference some architecture, and itÕ s all kind of squeezed into this overall design.” When heÕ s not painting, Burcroff spends his time as an Assistant Professor of Art at SUNY Clinton Community College, Arts Coordinator for CCCÕ s Humanities Department, Advanced Placement Coursework Coordinator for Peru High School through CCCÕ s College Advancement Program (CAP), Academic Advisor, Art Club Advisor, Cultural Affairs Committee Chair, member of the Professional Development Day Committee, and as a sitting member of the Cliffhanger Arts Magazine Committee.

PLATTSBURGH Ñ Local artist Ian BurcroffÕ s work will be on display at the Pine Harbour Assisted Living Center beginning with an opening reception May 7. Burcroff, whose work has been featured in New York, Vermont, and Alaska, will be showing his new exhibit, titled Ò New Paintings.Ó Burcroff is no stranger to painting. After receiving a B.A. in Studio Art at Plattsburgh State, he went on to earn his Master of Fine Arts in painting and drawing at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. But for Burcroff, painting has been a lifelong passion, even before college. “The first things I ever painted were when I was a kid—this is going back to age six or sevenÑ they were the traditional house or barn,Ó Burcroff said. Ò I grew up in Rochester, NY, so I remember going to the Erie Canal and painting the boats and aqueducts there, too.Ó BurcroffÕ s interests soon changed direction when he started visiting museums in Rochester and Buffalo. Ò Thankfully for me, I had the opportunity to visit the AlbrightKnox Art Gallery in Buffalo and the Memorial Art Gallery in Rochester and really see Modern Art through the form of Georgia OÕ Keeffe and Pablo Picasso, and that became my interest level pretty quickly,Ó he said. Since then, Burcroff has received a lot of his inspiration from modernistic painters, but his painting style is entirely his own. “For me, my first inspirations were Pablo Picasso and Cubism, and really just art from the early 20th century. Eventually, that fine-tuned itself and evolved, and became what I do today. I would call what I do today contemporary art. Ó BurcroffÕ s painting style contains many elements of abstractionism, which is a major theme in works such as Ò Heartstrings.Ó While Burcroff utilizes abstractionism more often than realism, his paintings include

katherine@denpubs.com PLATTSBRUGH Ñ The United Way of the North Country joined with surrounding communities April 27 for a day packed with volunteer work to not only beautify but strengthen the communities. At this yearÕ s Day of Caring, members of the United Way joined forces with the SUNY Plattsburgh group Project Help, and area businesses including Georgia Pacific, and the Adirondack Coast Visitors Bureau. About 475 volunteers worked across the area working on about 75 different community projects. Participants helped in community cleanups at parks and homes of the elderly and disabled, fundraisers, food drives and a variety of other tasks. Ò A volunteer doesnÕ t get paid because they are worthless they donÕ t get paid because they
are priceless,Ó said Kathy Snow, director of development of theUnited Way of the North Country, at a April 25 press conference. About 20 clubs and organizations rallied to help during the day. It was the second year PSU students have gotten involved in the community development day. Ò ItÕ s a great way to be able to help out the community,Ó said Amber Parliament, a member of the Adirondack Coast. Volunteers across Clinton, Franklin and Essex counties lent their support by donating time to 15 non-profit organizations, 40 residential areas, 12 non-profit tourism attractions and 3 nursing homes. Ò The Day of Caring is a tremendous opportunity for people throughout Clinton, Essex, and Franklin Counties to come together for friends and neighbors and to help maintain the unique quality of life in this area,Ó said Snow,
Project Hope. The Day of Caring has been an annual North Country event for the past 15 years. Snow said it was usually one project a year and has included cleaning up the Babbie Rural Farm in Peru and helping to sheetrock a home. The projects expanded three years ago with the addition of Project Hope and students support. To submit a project for next years Day of Caring call the United Way of the Adirondack Region at 563-0028.

shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Easy Self Storage in Plattburgh will host a day of fun to raise money to benefit the Shriner’s Hospital for Children on Saturday, May 18. The self-storage business opened in 1986 and specializes in Amish sheds, gazebos, teak furniture, and also has on-site storage facilities. Bambi James, manager at Easy Self Storage, said the idea to hold the event came from a benefit she went to in Chazy. Ò I chose this charity because they help children with neuro muscular skeletal disorders as well as severe burn victims,Ó James said. “I went to a benefit for a local girl, and the Shriners helped her family with all of the travel expenses.Ó James added that she was impressed with how the Shriners helps families that canÕ t afford proper health care, and she decided to help them help others. Ò The families donÕ t have to pay anything back, which really helps them,Ó James said. Ò But the ShrinersÕ hospitals depend on what they can raise, or on what people can raise for them. It is the first time Easy Self Storage has held this kind of fundraiser, but if James has her way, it wonÕ t be the last. She said if the turnout is good, raising money for charity will become an annual occurrence. Ò We usually do a family day event for the kids, and I want to make it all charity based every year,Ó James said. Ò Whatever

Waldron became involved with the program last year after he was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease that causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in the lungs, digestive tract, and other areas of the body. Ă&#x2019; I guess IĂ&#x2022; ve had it since birth but I was diagnosed three years ago,Ă&#x201C; said Waldron. Ă&#x2019; I had gotten an infection and started throwing up a lot of mucus and went to the doctors and thatĂ&#x2022; s when they told me.Ă&#x201C; Ă&#x2019; It makes me a bit winded sometimes and I have to take a couple medications,Ă&#x201C; said Waldron. Waldron is a senior at Plattsburgh High School and though heĂ&#x2022; s not sure where he wants to study photojournalism he is going to be prepared. Waldron said for anyone out there who is diagnosed with the disease they should Ă&#x2019; expect a lot of treatments but in the end itĂ&#x2022; s worth it because youĂ&#x2022; ll feel better.Ă&#x201C; Many younger children choose a wish like going to Disney Land. Others wish to meet a celebrity or professional athlete and last year a young girl was sent to the Olympics in London. Elsinger said the Northeast chapter has also helped welcome wishers from other parts of the country who wanted to see snow for the first time. Riley said AndrewĂ&#x2022; s choice was unique and especially fun for him to shop for. Ă&#x2019; I was journalist and a photographer in the Ohio years ago so it was great to do the shopping here to set Andrew up for his potential career,Ă&#x201C; said Riley. Riley said the Northeast chapter of Make-A-Wish grants at least 100 wishes during the year and covers from the outskirts of the Catskills to the Canadian Border. Ă&#x2019; We grant 100 wishes but worldwide we can say a wish is granted every 40 minutes and at anytime there is someone living their wish either on a trip or meeting a celebrity they chose,Ă&#x201C; said Riley. World Wish Day is celebrated each year in April, marking the anniversary more than 30 years in the making: in 1980, a 7-year-old boy received his heartfelt wish to be a police officer for a day. That one wish inspired the founding of Make-A-Wish and launched the wish granting movement that circles the globe today. Riley said he has been in contact with the mother of the very first wish child and to this day she and her family remember the occasion with the same excitement they experienced 30 years ago. For more information about Make-A-Wish contact Riley at 782-HOPE.
