PLATTSBURGH — Some big changes are in store for the City of Plattsburgh’s July 4th parade and celebration.

In a press conference Monday, Mayor Jim Calnon announced the changes. The most noticeable change, according to Calnon, will be the parade route itself. Because of road construction on South Catherine Street, the city was forced to change the previous route to avoid closing too many of the city’s bridges at one time.

The new route will include line-up on Jay Street and lower Bridge Street and will step off onto Hamilton Street. The parade will go west on Bridge Street to City Hall Place, down City Hall Place to the bridge and over the bridge to Cumberland Avenue. It will continue on Cumberland Avenue to Wilcox Dock. The start time for the parade is 2 p.m.

Also new this year, there will be a reviewing stand on the steps of City Hall, and fl oats will be reviewed in as yet unspecifi ed categories.

Also new this year, the city is handing over organization of the parade and festivities to First Weekends in Plattsburgh. The theme of the parade and celebration is “Hero’s of Clinton County,

All Things Diva invades Rouses Point

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com ROUSES POINT — If affordable, designer inspired handbags and jewelry or organic bath and body products are your speed, Rouses Point might now be your place.

Tracy Grimes just opened All Things Diva at 69 Lake Street in Rouses Point, and so far her merchandise has been so popular she’s been having trouble keeping her shelves stocked.

“It’s all at a price point people can afford,” Grimes said. “The jewelry especially is fl ying off the shelves.”

Grimes has been selling this line of handbags at parties and on the internet for about fi ve years, and has been in direct sales for 20 years. She decided recently that sales were so good that the time was right to open a store. She found the small space on Lake Street that fi t both her inventory and the feel she hoped to cultivate perfectly. Her clientel has been a mix of locals, and the seasonal tourists who summer in Rouses Point’s ubiquitous marinas.

For her jewelry, Grimes went to the company’s warehouse facility and hand selected the lines she would feature. Her bath and body products, she points out, are from New hampshire.

“It’s important to know the products you’re selling,” she said.

“As for hand bags, camo has been a big hit. We carry both Mossy Oak and Real Tree.”

All Things Diva is currently open Thursday through Sunday, but Grimes is planning on expanding to Wednesdays as well.

Information on Grimes’ inventory and hours can be found at her All Things Diva Facebook page.

Head Start Program gets $1.5 million shot in the arm teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Congressman Bill Owens announced June 5 that the federal Department of Health and Human Services has awarded $1.5 million in grant funding to the Head Start Program run by the Joint Council for Economic Opportunity (JCEO) of Clinton and Franklin counties.

Owens said this grant: “is one that allows the Head Start Program to continue, and it is focused on getting children, if you will, prepared for school so that they have the skills they need in order to perform.”

JCEO of Clinton and Franklin counties is a private, not-for-profi t human service agency that focuses on support for individuals and families that are actively pursuing self-suffi ciency, serving low-income communities across Clinton and Franklin counties, operating the Head Start Program in Clinton County since 1965 and Franklin County since 1998.

“JCEO’s mission is providing dignity and resources to families to help them become more selfreliant,” said Jackie Skiff, Head Start director of Clinton and Franklin counties. “That’s kind of our mission for the Head Start program too, except it focuses on the 3 or 4 year old and their family.”

The Head Start Program is a comprehensive early childhood education program providing services to income eligible families with children ages 3 and 4. It includes 17 Head Start Centers and three home visit options that deliver comprehensive early childhood education services to 337 children and their families.

“I’m very supportive of this,” Owens said. “It’s very important, in my view, to get students prepared so that they have the skills to succeed in school, and I think we know that when students are not prepared, they have higher failure rates, and that leads to all types of socioeconomic disadvantages.”

Currently, there are 10 classrooms in Clinton County and seven classrooms in Franklin County, with three home-visiting options.

For the home-visiting option, the Head Start visitor will go to the home of the child for one and a half hours once per week and do home teaching activities with the child, parents and any other children who are in the house. Later in the week, a two and a half hour socialization session will take place in a classroom with approximately 12 other children.

For the classroom option, students will stay for six hours, participating in circle time, learning activities, free play and more.

Because of this expansion, funding increased from the Department of Health and Human Services since 1965 and has become a standard, annual funding for the Head Start Program.

“That’s what the funding announcement was,” Skiff said. “It’s a common practice.”

JCEO’s Head Start Program was awarded the fi rst half of the grant at the beginning of their fi scal year in February. JCEO applies every year to receive the grant. After applying, the request goes through the Department of Health and Human Services where they approve it and then Owens announces it.

JCEO’s Head Start Program is one of the many programs that the Department of Health and Human Services provides funds to.

According to JCEO’s website, JCEO of Clinton and Franklin counties is one of 58 Community Action Agencies in New York State that “continues to implement the philosophy of self help through

practical, timely and innovative programs and services that emphasize and develop problem solving skills for people.”

This statement is made possible by the array of staff such as Bruce Garcia, CEO of JCEO, Skiff and the rest of the Head Start Program staff that separately focuses on children with disabilities, education, health, home base, mental health, nutrition, parent involvement and social services.

“It (Head Start) has been my life for 25 years,” Skiff said. “I think it’s wonderful to give the opportunity to these children who would not normally be able to have an opportunity for a early childhood classroom setting.

“Seeing the families grow and learn throughout the year is really, really awesome.”

Benefit planned to aid Peru man with cancer

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PERU — A benefit for Richard Calkins will take place at the Peru Memorial VFW Post 309 June 21.

Calkins, who is 56 years old, has stage four esophagus cancer and is currently undergoing chemo treatment. The money raised will be put toward his medical expenses.

Three years ago, Calkins was diagnosed with kidney cancer. Fortunately, he had the cancer successfully removed and didn’t have to undergo chemo treatment. This year, however, he was diagnosed again only with cancer on his esophagus.

“He doesn’t like to say he’s sick or anything,” said Melissa Wiggins, daughter of Calkins and creator of the benefit. “He’s trying to stick with his normal routine as much as possible, trying to stay up beat and positive ... thankfully.”

Currently, Calkins is going through his third round of chemo treatment with three more rounds to go. However, he’s still doing the things he always did such as supporting his son’s Jeremy, who coaches wrestling at Dodgeville, and grandson’s, Bryce, who wrestles for Mike’s garage and Peru school at 7 years old, wrestling dreams, not letting his cancer bring him down.

“He’s kind of tired, but he’s still getting out and doing different things,” Wiggins said.

During the benefit happening from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., there will be a Chinese auction with handmade baskets made by the family and 50/50 raffles along with a flea market.

To have a table during the flea market, it costs $25 for one table and $40 for two tables. Other donated items from local businesses such as Tops in Peru and Arnies, family members and friends will be sold as well.

Following the benefit, there will be a dart tournament with a $10 entry free. The prizes are hand-made, one of a kind, trophies made by the family.

Vendors are still wanted for the benefit.

Melissa said that even though they don’t have a set goal to reach, she would like to raise about $5,000. If she doesn’t reach the goal, she might do another benefit in August.

“By then, we’ll know if he has to do more than six rounds of chemo,” she said. “We’re hoping it’ll be a ‘yay, chemo is gone celebration,’ but, if not, we are considering other fundraisers.”

To pre-register for the dart tournament, contact Jarett Wiggins at 518-605-2253. To make a donation, mail to Richard’s Cancer Fund C/O Melissa Wiggins, 28 Arrow Head Dr., Morrisonville, NY 12962 or call Wiggins at 518-605-3023.

“It’s stressful, but I try to be positive and think that he’s a strong person who is going to beat this because he just will,” Wiggins said.

“He’s my dad, and he can do anything.”

Richard Calkins, a cancer patient with stage four esophagus cancer, will be having a benefit to raise money for his medical expenses at the Peru Memorial VFW Post 309 June 21 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. followed by a dart tournament.

Ausable Chasm adds new Adventure Trail to its repertoire

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE — Judd Arnold continues to add more to the adventure side of Ausable Chasm.

Started in 2012 and finished in 2013, the Adventure Trail became one of the first adventurous activities the chasm has to offer.

“You kind of learn how to use the personal safety device that attaches to the cables that go throughout the course,” said Judd Arnold, assistant general manager and adventure program director of Ausable Chasm. “Then, you go throughout the various elements to get to the end of the course.”

This trail starts in the upper chasm, a region of the chasm that is not accessible from any other trail.

The trail starts with a cargo net along the chasm ledge 15 to 20 feet above the river, which leads into a Tyrolean traverse, a level cable that pulls a person across the river, giving him or her a chance to look at the raging river below them.

After is the via feratta, a number of rebar staples attached to the wall to climb like a ladder, leading up to the low route, a similar version of the Tyrolean traverse only at an incline of 45 degrees, where a guide lowers the person down the cable and controls his or her’s decent.

Once descended comes the v-bridge, a wobbly, one-cable walking bridge that stretches to 70 feet over Class IV, advanced, rapids, which Arnold describes as “eye-opening” and “pretty awesome.”

After the v-bridge begins the edge walk 40 feet above the water, finishing with the cable bridge, a planked out, easy-going bridge about 65 feet long.

“I kind of like to describe the Adventure Trail as fast and smooth, and it’s cheaper, and it’s quicker, and it gives you a little bit of the taste of adventure,” Arnold said. “But it’s not really in depth, not like the rapelling tour.”

The rapelling tour was created in 2012 at the

opposite end of the chasm and starts out with a 30-foot rappel and a 150-foot Tyrolean traverse, 50 to 60 feet above the water.

The last rappel consists of a 80-foot wall, where people can decide whether to do the via feratta climb back up the wall or finish the rappelling tour with a 150 foot long Tyrolean traverse 90 to 100 feet above the water.

With this tour, one can learn specifics on how to properly rappel, similar to the chasm’s new rock climbing option added this year.

“This one is still a work in progress,” Arnold said. “But it’s one of a kind.”

Currently, Arnold has created three different walls with different routes that accommodate people ranging from beginner to expert, walls that are less than 10 feet away from the river.

Arnold’s goal is to add more walls and more climbing routes to the rock climbing walls. Arnold’s other goal is to keep creating new adventurous activities for the chasm.

“For winter, it’s still in the process of being planned out, but the plan as of right now is to have ice climbing this winter,” Arnold said.

After checking out some walls, Arnold said that adding ice climbing to the list of adventure activities would be a great way to get people to go to the chasm during the winter months.

After observing the walls, Arnold said he discovered that ice formed from 5 feet tall to over 100 feet. He also said, if he needed to, he would make his own ice.

“The ice that forms there is beautiful and perfect,” he said. “It has the potential to be a popular ice climbing destination.”

To learn more about the costs, restrictions and requirements for the adventure activities, visit Ausable Chasm’s website ausablechasm. com. To find out about new things happening at the chasm, check out their Facebook page “Ausable Chasm.”

“It’s not like we’re losing focus on our tradition, but we’re also opening up the doors in allowing more people to enjoy what the chasm actually has to offer,” Arnold said. “The possibilities are endless.”

The photo shows the end of Ausable Chasm’s Adventure Trail cable bridge, which stretches up to 65 feet long across the chasm and over the river.

The VA: Dysfunction at its best

T

he Veteran’s Administration is again under fire, and rightly so, but their incompetence, which borders at many times on criminal malfeasance, goes much more deeply than wherever their current flash point issue happens to be.

The most recent issue surrounding the VA, which has caused their secretary to step down amidst the turmoil, revolves around VA hospitals falsifying records to show that veterans were seen within a certain amount of time, when in fact they hadn’t been seen within that time frame. Some veterans, it has been shown, have died while waiting to be seen. While the spectre of falsifying records is a new twist in the VA’s record of bureaucratic incompetence, their overall way of doing business is still just as bad.

The VA has fairly simple marching orders: provide medical care and treatment for veterans once they leave the service. But the VA is a monolithic behemoth, which is nearly impossible for a individual soldier to make their way through on his or her own.

Getting a foot in the door initially when a soldier leaves the service is the first stumbling point, but it shouldn’t be. A soldier might serve in the military for 20 years or longer. During this time their every move is documented; every deployment, every injury, every location they’ve ever lived is recorded by the Department of Defense. So when they leave the service and apply to the VA that information is digitally transferred from the DOD to the VA, right? Wrong. The soldier has to apply to the VA, provide their own documentation for things like known injuries or medical conditions, then wait for the VA to review their records and accept them into the system. Why? It’s understood that a soldier who qualifies will be applying to the VA when they leave the service. Why can’t their records automatically follow them to the VA? According to Washington officials, it’s just not technologically possible to do. The government has invested millions of dollars trying to figure out a way to employ some fairly simple 1990s technology to track these records, but were apparently not able to figure that one out.

So a soldier applies, and finally, eventually makes their way into the VA medical system most likely after months of waiting. When you’re accepted into the VA system you can go to any facility nationwide, wherever you happen to be, right? Wrong again.

Consider a veteran in our area, who winters in the south. That veteran has to pick which VA facility they want to receive their

treatment in, north or south. Is this the case in the civilian system? Do you have to pick which hospital you will receive your care in?

Of course not. If you typically receive treatment in Plattsburgh but are on vacation, a couple keystrokes at the hospital will bring up all your medical records and insurance information while you sit there. Why can’t the VA figure this technology out?

Now what if the soldier is one of the thousands who came back from one of our decade long wars disabled in some way? Their medical and service records transfer directly to the branch of the VA that handles disabilities, right? Nope, wrong again. Why? Again, it appears that the government can’t figure out the technology to make this simple transfer of records possible. Ditto for the branches that handles veterans’ educational benefits, and cemetery benefits. You start back from scratch each time you come to a new command; prove who you are, where you served, prove that you qualify for these benefits. These should have all been locked in the day that veteran left the service.

Now think about this...what is the government actually capable of when it comes to tracking records? Currently the NSA is able to track every phone call made, apparently anywhere in the world. They can read and store every email sent, and are even in the process of combing the internet with their facial recognition software, for reasons they are quite reluctant to discuss.

So is the VA unable to transfer veterans’ records because the technology doesn’t exist, or does the will to spend the money required to bring their Jurassic system into the twenty-first century simply not exist in Washington? Maybe instead of reading the emails of millions of law-abiding Americans or European allies, the NSA could and should be sharing their technology with the VA in order to build a system where veterans aren’t dying while waiting for their records to be processed; where snow-bird veterans aren’t forced to choose which VA facility will treat them, or prove a disability when they leave the service missing a limb or an eye.

Our government simply doesn’t care enough about our veterans to pay to put in place technological systems that clearly have existed for years, if not decades. Perhaps the criminal malfeasance in Washington shouldn’t be placed just at the feet of the VA any more, but should fall to those of the President, Senate and Congress as well. ÑD

ave you ever sent yourself the message that you would try something new, BUT… and here you fill in the blank with anticipatory fears, doubt, or negative self-talk….and you decide not to try. This week we want to encourage you to quiet the voice of inaction and embrace an adventure, in particular, Bikram Yoga.

Hot Yoga (Bikram) not for you? Think again! Our most recent speakers at the Wellness Series, MARY DUPREY and JULIE REIDY of EMPOWER FITNESS & YOGA, spent some time discussing the benefits and challenges of this practice along with their personal journeys of wellness. Having an interactive conversation with the group seemed to dispel some impressions from audience members and challenge them to try it out!

If you are not familiar with Bikram Yoga (often called Hot Yoga); it is a practice conducted at 104 degrees with 30 to 40% humidity and the same series of 26 poses that are designed to heal, cleanse the body systems, release toxins, increase flexibility and build strength and focus. Having been Bikram fans ourselves, we were particularly excited when Julie and Mary bought the studio at the beginning of 2014. They are dedicated to the personal service, including welcoming and well trained instructors and a clean, serene atmosphere. Making new improvements each month is their initial, new business owners, goal.

A wise person once said, pain is not the natural state of the physical or emotional body. Cultivating wellness takes mindful effort and while there may be discomfort along the way, do not confuse this practice with pain. We are often lulled into the belief that as we age there are certain facts we cannot avoid; sore joints, weight gain, tiredness, a generalized slowing down. Hot

Yoga can begin to dispel these beliefs and help you reclaim your strength and energy. While we do not encourage thrill seeking to fill a void in your life, we do encourage embracing change and maybe initial discomfort! Whether you choose Hot Yoga or some other form of exercise; personal contentment and comfort are also part of the wellness journey.

For a beginner; come with an open mind, prepared for the experience rather than your own competence. It is a practice that is actually designed for beginners which you can grow to love. It takes time to train with the heat and the poses, which are unlike other yoga practices. The studio offers a great way to acclimate; unlimited classes for 2 weeks for only $20.

showing any at aggression, she does tend to bark at the cats she has met here at Rebecca Burdo •643-2451; info@elmorespca.org Elmore SPCA. Heidi is an adorably young dog that will do well in an active home. She is current on age appropriate vaccinations and has been cleared by our vet. She is ready to meet her new family!

Come in and meet this gorgeous young dog that will happily entertain you for hours on end.

Gaga was brought in by a concerned citizen who lives in the town of Peru, New York. She was seen by this concerned citizen being dropped off from a white van, and he brought her to Elmore SPCA. The poor girl has severe ear mites and is now receiving treatment. Gaga is an independent cat who has been very sweet, even though she is extremely uncomfortable. Gaga is very vocal! She meows and growls to encourage or discourage attention respectively. Although her ears are very infected, and it isn’t

comfortable to have them touched right now, she is only trying to get away and not being aggressive. When we are not treating her ears, she is very sweet and loves to have her head rubbed. She will nudge your hand with her head until you pet her... she is not shy! Gaga loves to be brushed! She adores being pet and tolerates being held and cuddled. She will be able to go home after she is cleared by the vet and altered.***UPDATE***Lady Gaga is doing wonderfully!

Her ears are now much more healthy, and she is happy to be pet and cuddled. When we introduced her to the colony, she hid at first. After a few days, she realized that her favorite place to be was lounging on the window sill in the sun shine! Gaga is now current on vaccinations, has been altered and is ready to go home.

Letters to the Editor

Interesting editorial To the Editor: As a school board president, it was most interesting to read your editorial regarding the affordability of school resource officers.

Concern for student safety in this day and age has given rise to an impassioned dialogue, with lots of folks rightly pointing out that it’s a priceless commodity these officers would be protecting.

Lots of others are all too eager to vote down hefty school tax increases. But the need to react to current events is inescapable.

Many new safety measures have already been put in place in most districts. At Indian Lake, we’ve installed video surveillance and forced people to be buzzed through doors that previously had remained unlocked. Troopers and deputies patrol the building from time to time.

Would any of these measures stop a committed assailant?

Certainly not. They’d come back later if they saw a cop car parked out front. There are dozens of eye-level windows in our

building. There are 11 separate entry doors. The playgrounds and ball fields are open top the woods.

Would a full time “resource officer” solve the potential problem? I think not.

Since these attacks are extraordinarily rare (although increasing), this officer would presumably have nothing to do day after day, month after month. Individuals in that type of situation can’t be expected to maintain a high degree of alertness indefinitely.

I have proposed, on a couple of occasions over the years, that we send one or more willing individuals from our building for law enforcement training sufficient to qualify them to become deputized and keep a firearm on the premises. This could be the Principal, a teacher, a custodian or a cafeteria worker. Any of them would already be at work in the building, doing a job, active and awake.

Then we would no longer be the sort of defenseless gun-free zone that has attracted nearly every one of these atrocities. Help would no longer be a phone call and up to a 45 minute drive away. I was surprised that not a single person expressed support

for my proposal here at Indian Lake. Perhaps in Essex County you can do better.

No excuse!

To the Editor: Where are your proofreaders? Did they never hear of the “I before E” ditty? Of course, it must be modified to something like this: I before E except after C, where it’s pronounced á, as in neighbor, weigh and inveigh. Except for when it is pronounced é such as receive, inveigle, seize and weir; and finally when pronounced í as in height.

With spelling and grammar checkers on most computers, there is no excuse for a headline with a word spelled recieved.

Concert on the Pond on tap

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The third annual “Concert on the Pond” will happen at The West Plattsburgh American Legion Post 1619 June 14.

This event will benefit the Veterans Assistance Fund and will be hosted by the American Legion Riders Post 1619, a national organization that assists veterans, and sometimes non-veterans, in Clinton County.

“The reason we like to do this, and the reason we started out doing this, is we want to be able to help out our local veterans,” said Vern Bruno, president of the American Legion Riders Post 1619. “We would like to help veterans because it’s the veterans that are letting us be there.”

The day will start at 9 a.m. with a registration for a motorcycle ride that departs at 10:45 a.m. The cost to ride is $10, which will end around noon before the bands start playing.

Starting at noon, local bands Bootleg, Replay, Denim, Strange Brew, Just Us and In Cahoots will perform until 11 p.m. The bands will play for an hour each on the stage outside until 8 p.m., and one band will play inside the legion for the rest of night. All the bands volunteered their time to perform.

Also, a horseshoe tournament will take place at 1 p.m. with registration starting at noon.

A classic for the show, the $1 menu will be brought back by the Riders and feature hot dogs and fries, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, michigans, all donated by local vendors Stewart’s, Freihofer’s and the Homestead Restaurant.

Throughout the day, the event will have a 50/50 raffle, Chinese auction and T-shirts and Koozies for sale, donated items from Coors Light.

One of the main sponsors for the event is the West Plattsburgh American Legion Post 1619.

“They let us have the Concert on the Pond there,” Bruno said.

“They help us as much as they can.”

The overall event is open to the public, and admission is free.

For more information, contact the American Legion Post 1619 at 518-561-8706, Keith Dyer at 518-521-7344 or Bruno at 518-5785591.

“We have a fun, free country right now,” Bruno said. “If it wasn’t for our veterans that go out there and fight for us, we wouldn’t have a free country.”

“That’s why we want to give back to out veterans that went out there and fought and did what they did for this country to push us where we are today,” he said.

a Salute to the Armed Forces” according to First Weekends’ president Tim McCormick.

“We want to show that we really need to remember all those who have served, not just in Clinton County, but the entire region,” McCormick said.

Following the parade, the “Mayor’s Cup Voice” competition will take place at the band shell behind the MacDonough Monument.

Winners of this year’s singing competition, formerly tagged “Mayor’s Cup Idol”, will perform at the Clinton County Fair, opening for “The Voice” winner Danielle Bradbury and runners-up The Swon Brothers.

Following Mayor’s Cup Voice, the band “Movin On” will perform at the band shell. Fireworks will follow at 9:20 p.m.

“As for the fireworks, we expect an even bigger show than normal this year,” Calnon said. “We think it’s going to be a full day of fun.”

Calnon addressed the issue of parking, saying that the city has made no special plans to deal with parking this year, but says that the city is examining the issue for next year.

“Parking and getting out of downtown is a difficult thing, but this year we are not changing anything,” he said.

As for the cost of the celebration, Calnon said the fireworks are the most expensive part of the celebration, but that most of the cost for the fireworks is donated, and very little money comes from city coffers.

Sponsors, he said, have been very generous in the past.

Being the first weekend in June, First Weekends will also be celebrating July 5 with their signature road closures and street performers on City Hall Place.

Space in the parade is still available. Interested groups can contact Beth Carlin at the Mayor’s Office at 563-7701.

Beach Party From page 1

went through.”

The day will start at 8 a.m. with registration for the Champlain Valley Family Center 5K Run for Recovery at the beach at 9 a.m. This run will raise funds for Champlain Valley Center Youth programming.

After, the North Country Chamber of Commerce will hold its 16th annual Great Adirondack Car Show, Craft Fair and Giant Garage Sale at the Crete Center from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., an event that started as just a car show 16 years ago and has grown ever since.

“This year, we’re happy to be part of the City of Plattsburgh’s Beach Bash,” said Jody Parks, executive vice president of the North Country Chamber of Commerce. “It’s a great way to celebrate summer and make a ‘splash’ on the opening day of the city beach.”

Also during that time, staff and volunteers from the Imaginarium Children’s Museum will be on hand with crafts and activities for children at the beach until 2 p.m.

Joe Kovacs from local juice bar Smooth Moves will be hosting a BBQ in the beach concession stand with beach foods and smoothies from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.,

while The Cabana Beach Bar opens its doors for a beer garden from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Later in the afternoon, the City Recreation Department will host a two-on-two beach volleyball tournament on the beach’s two volleyball courts, which will last from 1 to 7 p.m.

Throughout the day, there will be music provided

by Social Relief, a musical movement to create events with a captivating atmosphere and promote a better nightlife in Plattsburgh, from 1 to 5 p.m., leading up to a performance by Lucid, a self-described “woodrock” band from Plattsburgh, from 5 to 8:30 p.m. A bonfire will be set up from 6 to 9:30 p.m., which will end the night.

“People want to see things happening, so it’s been easy to have the businesses engaged and involved and really take on providing these opportunities,” said Chris Rosenquest, president of the Plattsburgh Renewal Project. “They (the businesses) were very excited and open to the opportunity.”

Admission will be $3 per person and free for children 12 and younger, covering the entire day. This event was created by the City of Plattsburgh Recreation Department and the Plattsburgh Renewal Project.

June 14, 2014 Steve Peters, superintendent of recreation, said the planning started in November and took off in February, which came all together in the last few weeks, a plan to showcase one of Plattsburgh’s biggest attractions.

The Plattsburgh City Beach takes the title as one of the longest freshwater beaches in America that features Lake Champlain and the Green Mountains of Vermont.

“It’s always good for us to focus some of our attention on the beach,” Peters said. “It’s truly a gem that we want to encourage people to enjoy because it’s here.”

To register for the 5K run, visit ageeracetiming. com/events/241. For the two-on-two beach volleyball tournament, register at plattsburghrecreation. com. To be part of any of the events for the Great Adirondack Car Show, Craft Fair and Giant Garage Sale, visit www.northcountrychamber.com.

“There’s a chance to get some fitness in, such as the 5K run, but also a chance to relax and enjoy one of the best views that we have on the lake,” Peters said.

“Hopefully, we’ve provided something that people can find some enjoyment out of.”
