Seven slots open for DEC summer camp scholarships Campers call it the experience of a lifetime

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — Hiking, canoeing, fishing and performing skits around the campfire before going to sleep under the stars — they’re all staples of the classic outdoors experience.

Days like these are why visitors flock to the Adirondacks each year.

But not everyone can afford those simple luxuries.

That’s the premise underpinning the De-

partment of Conservation summer camp program, which gives kids ages 11-17 from across the state the opportunity to spend a week at one of their four outdoor retreats.

State officials, campers and sponsors all speak effusively of the week-long program, which contains a blend of recreational and educational elements.

The Lake Champlain Chapter of Trout Limited is one of the many private organizations that offers scholarships.

This year, the group aims to send seven local kids to the camps, including Camp Colby in Saranac Lake and Pack Forest in Warrensburg.

The trout and salmon conservation group began offering the scholarships in 2007 as a

memorial to Sam Thuesen and Dennis Aprill, a pair of educators, leaders and anglers who the organization says devoted their lives to the North Country.

“It’s one of the greatest things we do,” said William Wellman, a board member.

Kids who go are enthused to the point of crying when they have to go home, Wellman recalled, while their letters act as testimonials to their experiences, which many call lifechanging, including Nicole Williams.

A stint at Lake Colby was the first time Williams really spent outdoors. After catching the bug, the Plattsburgh resident returned as a counselor, where she honed her leadership skills.

Williams can now be found on the hiking

Search continues for new Plattsburgh City School District superintendent

PLATTSBURGH — Hearing sounds children playing and laughing make it all worthwhile for Michelle Amin, the owner of a new indoor playground.

Giggles Playground recently opened its doors to children ages 6 months to 8 years Teah old offering what the owners say is a fun Dowling and friendly environment for locals.

Writer Amin decided to open the parent-supervised indoor playground after seeing a need of kid-friendly playing facility in Plattsburgh for parent and child interaction.

“There’s nothing better than getting down to a kids level and interacting with them,” she said. “I want parents to enjoy their children before they grow up because time really does fly by.”

Fully equipped with bounce houses, mini trampolines, swervy slides and a friendly crawl-through caterpillar named Gus, this establishment has already become a hot commodity for local families.

“We loved Giggles,” said Lori LaBarre-Barber of Morrison-

trail or in a kayak on Lake Champlain when she’s not attending classes at St. Lawrence University, where she is majoring in math.

“It was really fun,” Williams said, “and it was a really good leadership experience.”

The program started in 1947 when a group of conservationists and sportsmen met with the DEC to discuss how to better educate young men to hunt, trap and better conserve resources.

The trips originally cost $17.50 each; they’re now $350.

PLATTSBURGH — No stone is being left unturned for the search of a new superintendent for Plattsburgh City School District.

In early December, the district began working with Champlain Valley Educational Services to search for a new superintendent to replace retiring Superintendent James “Jake” Short.

CVES District Superintendent Mark Davey said applications have been flowing in from in and out of the state.

Davey declined to discuss the exact number, citing the early stages of the application process.

Ultimately, the district is seeking an individual who possesses the “human relation skills, interest and leadership ability to interact effectively with all segments of the educational community,” Davey said.

To help with the search, the district and CVES hosted a pri>> Story Continued | pg. 8

Town of Plattsburgh rolls out winter activity lineup

By Teah Dowling

Fesette of Fesette Realty, donated space in a warehouse at 18 Northern Avenue.

PLATTSBURGH — The weather outside is frightful, but the Town of Plattsburgh aims to make it delightful.

In February, the town’s recreation department will offer a variety of winter activities throughout the month, from skiing and snowshoeing to a jungle adventure course.

“Winters are so fickle here with warm ups, icing and then freezing windy days,” said Melanie Defayette, youth services and recreation director for the Town of Plattsburgh. “But that doesn’t mean that we can’t enjoy winter.”

VERY SNOWY PROGRAM The snowshoe and ski component of the series, Defayette said, provides an opportunity for locals of all ages to try out the sports for free.

“We enjoy offering activities for kids, but this is one that adults can enjoy too,” Defayette said. “It provides them an opportunity to try snowshoeing and cross country skiing for free.”

Those who prefer those sports at night are invited to the Full Moon Party at the Cadyville Rec Park Friday, Feb. 19.

The nightly trek will take guests through one of the three Cadyville Rec Park trails — leading to fire pits for roasting marshmallows and making smores.

“Being outside during a full moon, with the brightness reflected off the snow, is fun,” Defayette said. “An hour of outdoor winter activity guarantees a full night’s sleep.”

The Full Moon Party will take place Friday, Feb. 19 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Cadyville Rec Park. The event is free and open to all ages. Equipment is available at a first-come, first-serve basis.

Pre-registration is required. Call the Clinton County Youth Bureau at 518-565-4750 to register or learn more.

The Winter Adventure Fun Runs will take place Feb. 6, 13, 20 and 27. The course is free and open to children ages 3 and older. For more information, contact the Clinton County Youth Bureau at 518-

WINTER ADVENTURE RACES This year, a popular indoor obstacle course returns: the Winter Adventure Fun Run Series, an idea that was hatched with help from the Clinton County Youth Bureau.

The town built the rustic course with logs and hills made out of snow.

The move indoors to safeguard against fickle weather made it possible for the town to add more obstacles, like a rope maze and roller racer course.

For the last three years, local businesses have donated warehouse space to get the obstacle course inside. This year, Neil

The Family Snowshoe and Cross Country Ski Program will be held Feb. 16-18 from 2 to 3:30 p.m. The program is free and open to all ages. Equipment is available at a first-come, firstserve basis. Pre-registration is required by calling the Clinton County Youth Bureau at 518-565-4750.

South Side Sled & Skate slides into South Platt Park

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — Grab your sled and a pair of skates.

South Side Sled & Skate will slide its way into South Platt Park Saturday, Jan. 30, offering families a fun incentive to get out in the snow.

“We wanted to create better recreational activities for families in this weather,” said Sandra Geddes, promotions and special events coordinator for the City of Plattsburgh. “Hopefully, this event will get people out and be with the community.”

Children, and children at heart, will be able to sled down Fox Hill and ice skate in the park.

Don’t feel like playing in the snow?

The day will also feature live music by Peso and The Plattsburgh Home Team and West End Park.

The idea of this winter outdoor recreational opportunity for families began in October, Geddes said, when the Plattsburgh Downtown Association discussed hosting more events during the winter months.

In early December, the Downtown Plattsburgh Holiday Parade took place, kicking off the winter season and more winter events to come.

“We should really be thinking about winter time,” said Bruce Lawson, member of the Plattsburgh Downtown Association, in a previous interview.

As Geddes searched for a location for a second winter event, she said, a community member requested hosting an event at the south end of Plattsburgh, specifically at Fox Hill — an idea that snowballed into this upcoming event.

“The city has not hosted an event at the south side of town,” Geddes said. “So, what better way to do it at the best sledding hill in Plattsburgh.”

South Side Sled & Skate will take place Saturday, Jan. 30 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at South Platt Park. West End Park and The Plattsburgh Home Team will perform at 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. respectively. Food and free hot chocolate will be available on site. Ice skate and inner tube rentals is yet to be determined. To learn more, visit the Facebook event page “South Side Sled & Skate.”

This event marks the beginning to the Snowball Series — a celebration of winter in the North Country offering multi-day events throughout the month of February.

SNOWBALL 2016: FULL LINEUP Feb. 6: Fifth annual Kids Carnivale at the City Recreation Center from 2 to 5 p.m.

Feb. 7: Children’s Sunday Supper at Blue Collar Bistro at 4 p.m.

Feb. 7: Showing of “Alice in Wonderland” at the Strand Theatre at 2 p.m. Cost is $7 for adults and $5 for children.

Feb. 7: YMCA Recreational Swim at the Plattsburgh YMCA from 11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.

Feb. 13: Seventh annual Sunrise Rotary Winter Carnival on CVPH’s front lawn from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Feb. 14: Showing of “The Parent Trap” at the Strand Theatre at 2 p.m. Cost is $7 for adults and $5 for children.

Feb. 17: Behind-the-Scenes Tour at Clinton County Historical Museum from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Feb. 20: Zumba Party at Champlain Centre Mall from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Feb. 21: Showing of “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” at the Strand Theatre at 2 p.m. Cost is $7 for adults and $5 for children.

Feb. 25: Journey Into Reading at Champlain Centre Mall from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Feb. 28: Showing of “An American Tail” at the Strand Theatre at 2 p.m. Cost is $7 for adults and $5 for children.

The Wishing Well

s kids we would ask mom, dad or a grand parent for a coin to throw in the wishing well.

They knew no matter how much money went into the well and no matter how hard we wished, the wish was never going to come true unless you shared your secret wish with them. But as a young child you had hope the toy or special wish just might magically appear someday.

Fanciful wishes back then might be to wish for a million dollars, which in the early 1960’s was a kings ransom.

You don’t see many wishing wells today and when you do run across one frequently it no longer has water in it and appears obsolete.

But alas today we have the Powerball Lottery which in many ways is really nothing more than today’’s version of the old wishing well.

I broke down and purchased my very first lottery ticket last week for the ultrahyper-slim chance upon chance that we might be lucky enough to win the $1.6 billion jackpot.

Ok, my wife and I went a little nuts we actually bought three tickets. For Christmas, our son and daughter-in-law put some scratch off tickets in our stockings and we apparently won $6. So why not push the whole enchilada back into the system and see if we could parlay our winnings into the big jackpot.

I’m sure we weren’t alone as the evening rolled along sharing thoughts on how we would use the funds.

All those positive dreams that millions were conjuring up in the days and hours before the drawing couldn’t help but spur everyone with a dream to think beyond themselves about the good things this money could do for so many more than just themselves.

If only wishes and dreams could come true think of all the joyful thoughts that were on the minds of the millions who took a chance and then just think how lucky we are to be alive. No matter how difficult our lives may be something as simple as a $2 dollar ticket can provide such fanciful thoughts for a few hours.

Now think about how better our world would be if we could all spend more time thinking about all the positive things we can do for our love ones, friends, charities and family with the blessings we’ve already been given to share. Perhaps we’ve missed the true mean of “Well Wishes” and what a “Wishing Well” is really all about?

Let’s face it wishes do come true and hope is all we need to brighten a cynical world.

Keeping local businesses afloat during winter is a team effort

T

here’s a lot to love about North Country winters — Ice fishing, skiing and snowmobiling are some of our favorite things.

These activities are also what makes our region so attractive to visitors and newcomers.

But there’s a lot to dislike, too — Road conditions, frozen pipes and seasonal unemployment tops the list.

So do businesses that close for the winter.

Take your pick of towns across the region: What’s the North Country equivalent of a tumbleweed?

We understand the dynamics. Who can blame some of these business owners?

It’s tough to make the numbers work when a large percentage of the population picks up stakes and skips town at the first sign of frost.

But what about the year-round folks who still need goods and services?

Unlike seasonal residents, we’re still here.

We plow roads, take care of seasonal homes, tow vehicles, teach kids, drive ambulances and fight fires.

Not only do we support these small businesses year-round, but also organize and facilitate the events that draw visitors into the community, where guests inject much-needed funds into the local economy.

So when a local shop closes for the winter, we can’t help but feel left out in the cold.

While local merchants have no real obligation to stay open for year-round residents, it sure would be nice.

Tranquility is a perk of living here, but it doesn’t mean we should have to embark on an epic quest to grab a midnight snack.

To be clear, there are broader forces at work here.

Businesses are continuing to struggle in the economic downtown. Taxes and regulatory burdens are throttling growth, while cozy entitlement programs continue to dissuade people from taking on low-paying work.

For owners, the job is just plain exhausting. Paired with the weather, it’s no surprise that Florida sounds good right about now.

We get it.

But the North Country needn’t take after the North Pole, once the razzledazzle of the holidays are in the rearview.

In these tiny communities, small businesses play a critical role in year-round sustainability.

Tourism is great. But it becomes irrelevant if there’s nowhere for people to spend money.

Success is possible. All the ingredients are here.

Deep pools of entrepreneurial talent bubble under the surface. Empty storefronts abound; economic development grants are gushing from the state tap, while inbound tourism continues to increase.

We all have roles to play.

Local officials need to continue lobbying for policies that will make the Adiron-

MissionÊ of Ê HopeÊ StoryÊ bringsÊ aÊ smile

To the Editor: On behalf of the Dragoon Family we would like to thank you for your recent coverage of The Mission of Hope Story and our mother Lucille Dragoon’s involvement. Your article was very nice and brought forth the concerns of many local residents for those less fortunate. Sister Debbie Blow does a fantastic job of organizing and executing the relief efforts on behalf of the North Country. Our family has been very fortunate to be a part of those efforts in a small way.

It was so good seeing the smile on Mom’s face when she saw the article and read it. It is always a good thing when folks are trying to do a very positive things for

dack Park more liveable on a year-round basis, including pushing for the state broadband funds that, despite being the subject of much pomp and circumstance, have been slow getting out the door.

Elected officials who are unable or unwilling to be strong cheerleaders for their communities should get out of the way.

Merchants, including those who take pages from Punxsutawney Phil’s playbook, might want to consider tweaking their business models to ensure that they’re offering a product or service that people actually want.

For instance: A wide selection of craft beer is something people will spend money on. So are specialities from local food producers, like choice cuts of meat and cheese.

What people don’t want: Marked-up stock that’s been on the shelves since the Reagan Administration.

Above all, regular people need to be supportive.

We have a responsibility to frequent the businesses that do stay open for the winter, even if it means paying a bit extra.

Shopkeepers do have a point when they gripe that despite all the positive talk by civic do-gooders, they seldom see these folks keeping their spending in the local community.

The next time you’re on your way home, reconsider buying local instead of picking up items at that larger chain store.

Perhaps the next time we’re fuming over that long car ride to buy a gallon of milk — or kicking ourselves as we go without — we can use the time to ponder how we can all help to ensure no one gets left out in the cold… or at least not without the proper provisions.

AdkÊ teamÊ andÊ AdkÊ brand

To the Editor: I commend and salute Lake Placid, its elected officials, ORDA, The Olympic Regional Development authority and ROOST, the Regional Organization of Sustainable Tourism. They reached out to us, the nearby towns and villages here in the Adirondacks, with the Empire State Winter Games (ESWG) some years ago and it’s worked. The games are now wholly “regional” and Adirondack towns and villages are working together on its brand, its identity and its entire strategic game plan in the process...and I, for one, am excited, because it is producing greater things for us all.

Five years ago, the state pulled its funding for the very popular ESWG, which drew thousands to Lake Placid each February. Instead of continuing it themselves … something they could have done and more-than-likely have succeeded in doing … Jim McKenna, from Roost, ORDA’s Ted Blazer, Lake Placid Mayor Craig Randall and Town of North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi did something unprecedented; they asked neighboring municipalities to share the promise, responsibility and the gains of this premier winter event and as a result, ESWG is on the verge of becoming so much bigger than ever before. ORDA, especially, continues to devote enormous resources to develop and keep the games going.

ESWG events are now held in Wilmington, Lake Placid, Saranac Lake, Tupper Lake. Paul Smith’s and, this year, Malone will be added. The games and its tourism dollars are not just confined to Lake Placid. It is now an “Adirondack” event with its success and marketing spread to an entire region.

In fact, the ESWG logo was changed and is now emblazoned with “Adirondacks,” and not the name of any individual village.

Last month, just outside of Malone, at the Titus Mountain Ski Area, County Legislator Barb Rice and I walked into a news conference at which new ESWG events were to be announced and the first people we saw were Essex County leaders, Randy Preston, from Wilmington, Keene’s Bill Ferebee and Jay’s former Supervisor Randy Douglas. We were surprised as Malone is a long drive from their home towns, but they wanted to be there in support of Malone, the games and the region. It was true team spirit present….as we heard the news that Titus Mountain will host an exciting “Big Air” skiing competition and Saranac Lake will host a first-ever “Fat Bike” event at its Mt. Pisgah. ESWG officials also announced that they want the games to expand even more and become “international” in the years ahead, a prospect we heartily applauded.

As ESWG has broadened, another very promising regional endeavor occurred: Local villages, towns and counties have affiliated with ROOST to promote the Adirondack Region. Essex, Franklin and Hamilton Counties have signed on as well as the villages of Tupper Lake and Saranac Lake. We see ROOST as the natural and superior marketing arm for the entire Adirondacks and the more municipalities that join and support its efforts, the more “The Adirondacks” will be known throughout the world. We know it is working. We see it in the numbers. The Adirondack brand is becoming more and more valuable and pays dividends to the smaller towns that cannot afford a national advertising budget. And we also see ROOST helping villages like Saranac Lake vie for even bigger things, like the 2017 World Snowshoe Championships. ROOST put together the SL bid package for the event and is helping us lobby for those championships….and we could not have done it without their expertise and resources.

All these good things happened because a few people and organizations “reached out” to surrounding towns to form a team and now, I firmly believe, our Adirondack Region will be stronger and more prosperous because of it. Excelsior� Mayor Clyde Rabideau Saranac Lake

CommunityÊ ralliesÊ forÊ Gabby

To the Editor: On Sunday, Feb. 7, family and friends will host a fundraiser at the Upper Jay Fire Department in honor of 18 year old community member Gabrielle (Gabby) Lincoln of Jay. Gabby received a Bilateral Lung Transplant Sunday, Jan. 10, at Boston’s Children Hospital. This was another huge milestone in her journey to better health. At the age of three, Gabby was diagnosed with Myeloid Leukemia, resulting in treatments of Radiation and Chemotherapy. In 2001, Gabby was the recipient of a Bone Marrow Transplant. Unfortunately, her lungs began to fail due to damage from a graft-versus host disease she contracted after the transplant.

Kimberly Davis, Chair of the Disney Raffle for the Plattsburgh Noon Kiwanis Club, presented Gerald Morrow with a Check for $5,000 as the winner of their Disney Raffle. There were 1,000 tickets sold by the Plattsburgh Noon Kiwanis Club in which all the proceeds will be giving to programs for children in the local community.

As Gabby continues to recover at Boston’s Children Hospital for at least the next couple of months, her mother Anna and father Willie will remain by her side. To absorb some of the expenses incurred while staying in Boston with occasional travels back to their home in Jay, our small, close-knit community is rallying to relieve some of the financial burdens by hosting the upcoming fundraiser.

From 1 to 5 p.m., the fun-filled event will consist of a traditional Michigan Meal, Silent Auction, 50/50 Raffle and live entertainment. A donation of $8 for adults, $4 for children ages 4-12 is greatly appreciated. Children under the age of 4 are free and takeout will be available.

Donations for the silent auction are much needed. If you wish to make a donation, please contact Auction Coordinator, John (Sleepy) Pulsifer at 524-9562.

For further general fundraising inquiries or if you wish to send a monetary contribution, please contact Event Coordinators Patty VonDell at 4207777, Brooke Sorrell 593-5541 and Keri Ford at 572-4733.

Let’s continue to show Gabby and her family North Country friendship and support.

FirstÊ handÊ lookÊ atÊ Trump

To the Editor: Recently I had the privilege of hearing Donald Trump speak in Burlington, Vt. I found it to be quite an experience on a couple of fronts. I saw firsthand the Left’s attitude toward free speech. They had no intentions of being tolerant. Nonetheless, “The Donald” played them like a Stratovarius. With all the fuss generated by the protesters the event drew even more interested observers. His visit inside Bernie Sanders’ territory was also vintage Trump.

He went straight into the belly of the beast and came out with greater admiration and respect.

Secondly, Mr. Trump exudes tremendous confidence and leadership ability. Those traits were on full display that evening. His charisma (let alone his debate performances) has sucked the oxygen out of every rival’s campaign.

Some disagree with his remarks, but he undoubtedly has struck a chord.

People have embraced his “non-PC” campaign with welcome relief.

Mr. Trump believes in America; which is in stark contrast to the belittling and scolding of Obama.

In ten months we have a tremendous opportunity to “Make America great again�” Your vote will make it happen.

PeopleÊ helpingÊ people

To the Editor: 2015 was a great year for our food pantry. We were able to reach out and feed many people. This was possible through the generous giving of many organizations and individual people. Just to name a few were: The Regional Food Bank, Tops, VFW, Men’s Club, Richards Library, Warrensburg Elementary School, Warrensburg High School, Cornell Extension, Catholic Church, Methodist Church, Episcopal Church and Presbyterian Church.

We would also like to thank all those people who gave produce from their gardens all summer and fall so others might have fresh fruit and vegetables.

We were given milk cards and toiletry items. We were even given some new stuffed animals and back packs to hand out to the children. The children were so pleased.

We received donations in memory of loved ones which allowed us to purchase meats, canned goods, cereals, soups and many other needed items.

We are able to carry on this mission project because of all of you. Without your support we would not be able to feed and care for all those who come to us each week. Your generosity is very much appreciated. You are all so special to me. Thank you so much. God Bless.

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Ups and Downs Gordie Little

Columnist

W

hen asked how we feel, we might answer, “I have my ups and downs.” I guess my goal and yours would be to have far more ups than downs.

Kaye and I are enjoying a vacation in Florida. Because of its geographical location, we might refer to this state as “down” south.

Conversely, Morrisonville, would be “up” north. Pretty straightforward. But my friend Les Bradford sent me a note that caused me to ponder. I do a lot of that.

I had told him about someone who had gone “down” to the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino. He said he would have said “over” or “out” if he were heading for the Massena area. Les spent much of his adult life as a pilot and I wondered if being “up” in the air so much made a difference in his vocabulary.

I recalled that, when I was a youngster in Moira, we said we were going “up south.” There’s one for you to think about. In conducting an informal survey, I asked Kaye about growing up in Saranac Lake. Without a pause, she said “We always said we were going downtown.” She added, “We would sometimes go out in the country.” She also remembered going “up” to Gramma’s or “over” to a friend’s house.

I did some more research and learned it is really sometimes an elevation or geographical thing.

But, in some cases, it was started long ago and never changed.

“Uptown”, for some folks, meant where the rich or “uppity” people lived. “Downtown” was the opposite. Way back when, city fathers wanted the business district to sound special, so they called it “uptown.” Not in Plattsburgh, however. That has always been “downtown” as far as I know.

“Upstate” and “downstate” have different meanings and that is a controversy I’ve written about often. I was born near New York City and always heard Harlem referred to as “uptown.” Downtown was Greenwich Village.” Then, there was “midtown” Manhattan.

My friends from the United Kingdom almost always go “uptown” while we are heading “downtown” here in America.

If you study American history through literature, you find that “uptown” and “downtown” changed over time. By the early 20th century, the central business district had been pretty much established as “downtown.” Confused yet?

Les set my brains to scrambling by telling me how things were in Middleboro, Massachusetts: “Down in Carver, Plymouth and the Cape Region, while Grandma Bradford lived over in Whitman.

We went up to Boston.” Whew.

Then, he started with things like “out so sea” to further confuse me. My head filled with Billy Joel’s 1983 hit, “Uptown Girl.”

Les and Helga owned a camp on Cumberland Head called “Upta,” as in “Up to camp.” By the way, is Australia really “down under?”

I’m counting on you to unravel this whole thing while I take a nap up in my room.

It’s all happening this weekend

F

or some of us, the weekend has become nothing more than an extension of our normal business week. Business emails slip through, we get scheduled for shifts and work seems to never stop.

Now is the perfect time to take back your weekend. Take a look at some of the events happening in the North Country this week. Choose one, or two, and bask in the joy of a weekend filled with potential.

SUNDAY A “60 from the �60s” exhibition will be on display at the Hyde Collection in Glens Falls from Jan. 24 – April 3.

The 1960s embraced Jackie Kennedy and Janis Joplin, crew cuts and Afros, mad men and deadheads, Father Knows Best and The Feminine Mystique.

This exhibition features the work of 10 of the most significant photographers of this decade, including Harry Callahan, Benedict J. Fernandez, Hollis Frampton, Betty Hahn, Robert Heinecken, Mary Ellen Mark, Roger Mertin, Arnold Newman, Aaron Siskind and Garry Winogrand. Museum hours are Tues – Sat, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday 12 – 5 p.m. Admission is $15.

vate community forum with invited students and parents for a profile on their ideal profile of a new superintendent.

The school plans to host an open forum March 21.

“The district has made a strong connection with the community,” Davey said. “I would like to find someone to continue that relationship, like Mr. Short did, and help move the district forward.”

GOODBYE, SHORT

Short announced in October his plans to retire at the end of June.

Short joined the school as superintendent in July 2006 after serving as the superintendent of Norwood-Norfolk Central School in St. Lawrence County.

He was preceded by Michelle Kavanaugh, who stepped down as district leader in April of that year, and Michael Derrigo, who served as interim superintendent until his arrival.

Over the course of 10 years, Short has been responsible for coordinating the activities and programs for all components of the school districts. a task Short intends to tell the superintendent taking

his place.

“It’s time for me to follow other pursuits and have someone else take the reigns,” he said. “I hope that someone will be a good match for the school and the community and bring in new ideas.

“I will have pages of advice for whoever that person is.”

The application deadline is Feb. 26.

The interviewing process will take place throughout March. The board anticipates an appointment by April 7 and the desired start date for the new superintendent to assume his/her duties is on or before July 1.

ville, who went to the business (located at 770 State Route 3) with her 4-year-old daughter, McKenzie Barber. “We look forward to going back again soon and would recommend it to anyone with younger children.”

Each year, the Lake Champlain Chapter of Trout Unlimited sends seven local kids to participate in the DEC’s summer camp program. Participants have called the experience life-changing. Deadlines for this year’s applications are March 15.

LaBarre-Barber enjoyed not only the variety of high quality and educational toys, but the safety precautions the playground makes.

The space is separated by age group — 6 months to 2 years old and 3 to 8 years old — to ensure the safety of the children while playing.

Giggles also aims to stress cleanliness, say the owners, which is something important to parents.

Germs are the main concern of Rachel Jurek of Plattsburgh, mother of 3-year old Colton, who considered checking out the new establishment during its grand opening .

“I can only see that day as being a germ-infested zoo,” she said. “I’m sure the event day will be great, but I think I might want to try it the day before.”

Amin said Giggles Playground strives to be a very clean establishment.

Everyday, each piece of playing equipment is wiped down and disinfected. There’s gym flooring in the 6 months to 2 years old play area to make it easier to clean, in which Amin intends to cover all of the playground in.

Giggles has a socks\-only policy — no shoes or bare feet. Also, there’s a designated area for all food and drinks. Water is provided at Giggles, but other snacks and drinks are not.

Amin said she hopes one day to provide packaged snacks and drinks, along with socks, for the children.

Amin is currently taking in recommendations of both parents and children to see what they would like to see in the playground to make it as enjoyable as possible.

“The kids need a place for them and I really want this to become their place,” she said. “I want to see happy kids.”

Giggles Playground grand opening will take place Saturday, Jan. 30 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. It’s half price for admission. There will be a $1 per ticket raffle to win a carpet cleaning or 10 free passes to Giggles Playground. For more information about the grand opening, rates or Giggles Playground itself, visit gigglesplayground.com.

County) followed in the 1950s; Colby in the 1960s, and Pack Forest in the 1980s.

Now, they’re full each year, said Randy Caccia, camp administrator, with 60 percent coming from private groups.

The program prides itself on the blend of old-fashioned fun with education.

One sportsman education class is offered each week — including hunting, trapping and archery — and are interspersed with practical lessons, including those related to field, forest and aquatics.

Counselors, who are required to have two years of schooling in the natural sciences, may also instill lessons on their specific fields.

“They take the excitement they have for nature and bring it to the kids,” said Caccia.

Wellman cited discussions with two former campers who ended up in the conservation arena.

“This is the point in their life that turned them around and turned them onto the outdoors.”

Scholarships from the Lake Champlain Chapter of Trout Unlimited are now available. To apply, send a one-page letter telling why you want to go to camp to Susie Oliver, 2 Finlay Drive, Plattsburgh NY 12901 by March 15. Include age, school and phone number/email address. Limited to first-time attendees and are allocated on a first come, first served basis. Transportation not provided. Visit dec.ny.gov/education for more info.

The road to Perfection: Exford has come a long way

By Keith Lobdell

“I knew I had breathing room then,” he said.

SARANAC — Dalton Exford stepped to the line for the 10th time, knowing what his bowling score sheet showed Jan. 6.

X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X. Nine down, three to go for a perfect score of 300.

It was something he felt was coming.

“I hit a strike in the first frame,” Exford said. “There was something about the way the ball came off my hand, I thought maybe this was it.”

Exford placed his hand on the fan, then his middle and ring fingers into the ball. But not the thumb, because that is how he had taught himself to roll a ball.

“In middle school, I played football and baseball and I wanted to do something in the winter but didn’t like basketball or running,” he said. “I decided to try bowling because there was a pretty girl on the team. I saw how kids were curving the ball and wanted to do that. I never really learned to bowl with my thumb in the ball.”

Exford approached the line for his second shot in the 10th frame, releasing the ball as he had done 10 times before. Right side of lane, watching for the ball to grip, heading right into the front pins and knocking them down.

X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X.

keith@suncommunitynews.com

Exford made his approach to the line and released the ball on the right side of the lane, watching as the spinning ball caught hold and curved into the pins, knocking all 10 down.

Make that X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X. Back to the ball machine to dry his hand and regain composure.

“It’s what I always do,” he said. “However, my friends told me you could see my hands shaking on video.”

It’s not what Exford thought would happen when he started his day against the Willsboro Warriors at North Bowl Lanes.

“I had a pocket 7-10 split (hardest of all splits) in the first frame,” he said. “I just kept splitting. I was changing my ball and tried to be less emotional.”

Exford finished with a 168 in his first game.

Far from a 300.

“I just took a breath because I knew I would need two good games to get to a 600 series,” he said.

Game two was closer, rolling a 255 over 10 frames.

Game three started with strikes in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth frames.

“That’s when I really started thinking about it,” Exford said. “Less people were talking and bowlers were getting off the lanes when they saw me approaching my ball. I just told myself don’t speed up, hit your mark and the ball will strike.”

Strikes followed in the sixth, seventh and eighth. Exford stepped up for the ninth frame, and it felt wrong the moment it left the hand.

“That was the scariest moment,” he said.

“The ball hit high and the pins went out. You heard the gasps.

“Then the pins came back and tripped up the front pins,” he added, showing the same relief during a Jan. 21 interview he had that day. “I thought after a frame like that, it had to happen. That’s when some of the weight lifted.”

Exford came back to prepare himself for the 12th and final ball, taking a look around.

“There was no one on the lanes,” he said.

“Everyone was silent. The only thing you could hear was the buzzing of the machines.

I had my hand on the fan and leaned on the machine. I grabbed the ball, wiped it off and stepped up. I wanted to make sure I was extra slow because I knew everything was going to speed up.”

Exford then made his approach, cranked the arm back and released.

“The ball didn’t look like it would break,” Exford said. “Then, at the last second, it moved and hit.”

X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X. 300 on the scoreboard.

“It was the loudest scream I’ve had in my life,” he said. “I never thought I would be one of those names on the screens at North Bowl.

Now I am.”

Saranac’s Dalton Exford watches as the ball hits the front pins, completing his first career 300 game during the Chiefs’ Jan. 6 match against the Willsboro Warriors. See the video of the 10th frame at suncommunitynews.com.

“His father and I had been speaking the game before that he would get a 300 this season,” Saranac coach Mary LaDuke said. “After his first six frames, we both thought he would do it. He has put in a lot of work in the summer and it paid off. He does the little things that most bowlers hate, like only shooting at the 7 or 10 pin game after game.”

LaDuke said, along with Saranac, he has

been a bowler in the North Bowl youth league. “(He) has put in countless hours of practice,” LaDuke said.

LaDuke added she is still hoping for more special moments.

“He has the potential to do it again.”

TICONDEROGA — Three members of the state finalists in Class D were named to the New York State Sportswriters Association’s top team in Class D for the 2015 season.

Brody Rocque (all purpose), Chase Dixon (offensive line) and Ryan Trudeau (linebacker) of the Ticonderoga Sentinels were named to the first team, while teammate Caleb Munson (offensive line) was named to the second team.

Rocque finished the season with 1,521 yards from scrimmage, not counting returning yards. He scored 19 times from the tailback position while rushing for 1,312 yards, while completing 11-of-20 passes for 175 yards and two scores, while catching nine passes for 34 yards. In the Class D state

championship game, Rocque had 26 yards rushing and two touchdowns while going 7-of-11 passing for 117 yards and a score.

Rocque was also a standout on defense, with a pair of interceptions and fumble recoveries, adding 5.5 tackles and a fumble recovery at the Carrier Dome.

“Brody put together an excellent season for us in taking over the tailback position and handling the bulk of the carries in our offensive attack,” Sentinel head coach Scott Nephew said.

Dixon, who was the anchor of the offensive line for the Sentinels, also had a strong season on the defensive line, recording 14.5 tackles-for-loss and a pair of sacks and a fumble recovery. He had four tackles in the state title game against Tioga.

“Chase did an excellent job for us utilizing his size and speed on both sides of the football,” Nephew said. “He played like a three-year starter should play.”

Trudeau finished the season with 11.5 tackles-for-loss, three sacks and four turnovers from his linebacker position. In the state championship game, Trudeau record-

ed eight tackles, 4.5 coming behind the line of scrimmage. On the second-to-last defensive drive of the Sentinel season, Trudeau combined a tackle-for-loss, sack and interception on three consecutive plays. He had a total of three interceptions, two of which he returned for touchdowns, while recovering one fumble.

On offense, Trudeau combined 728 rushing yards and 225 receiving yards for nine touchdowns, including.

“Ryan was an absolute force for us on both sides of the football,” Nephew said.

“His ability to always be in the right spot on the field, and to consistently make plays for us was a huge asset for our team.”

Munson, who was injured in the Whitehall game, finished the season with 7.5 tackles-for-loss and two sacks for the Sentinels.

“Caleb was the anchor of our offensive line,” said Nephew. “He was our leader up there and we are excited to have him back for another season.”

A trio of Moriah Vikings, who the Sentinels beat for the Section VII title, were also

named to the all state team, including Colin Harris (second team running back), Noah Gilbo (second team linebacker) and Adam Jaquish (honorable mention quarterback).

While their next playoff opponent, Tupper Lake, did not have a player make the all state team, regional finalist Whitehall had seven players make the all state team, including Jake Gregory (first team defensive line), Daryl Hillman (second team running back), Seth Martindale (second team linebacker), Derek Thomas (H.M. quarterback), Tyler Thomas (H.M. tight end), Brandon Bolster (H.M. defensive line) and Cody LaRock (H.M. defensive line).

State player of the year honors in Class D went to Tioga’s Jesse Manuel, who broke the total yardage record this season in the state and was a member of the Tiger squad who edged out the Sentinels for the state crown.

Section VII was represented by single players in Class C and B, with Saranac Lake’s tight end Joe Vscardo making the third team in C and Beekmantown running back Austin Myers being named honorable mention.

A retrospective on ice

L

ooking back through the through the eyes of age, I’m often reminded of just how lucky I was to have to have survived my younger days. I grew up with the freedom to hike, bike, climb, ski and skate, and ride; and I always took full advantage of the opportunities at hand, which varied with the seasons.

Flowing waters played a central role in my development.

There was a brook flowing through our backyard, which flowed into a larger stream before eventually connecting with the Boquet River about a half mile downstream. The waterways were our playgrounds, and they provided year round opportunities for adventures that included swimming holes and fishing holes, waterslides, cliff diving, whitewater paddling, and even a chance to enjoy some amateur archeology, after spring floods unearthed a variety of old bottle dumps.

In fact, it is surprisingly easy to locate old dumps, which are typically found on steep banks, just off the road. One of the largest dumps on the Boquet can be found on the left bank of the river just below Boquet Falls. It includes rusted old cars, farm equipment and lots of glass and Blue Willow china.

Despite all of those apparent dangers, I’ve managed to make it to a fairly, old age, which is truly quite astounding considering the circumstances. One thing I’ve learned is there is no such thing as 100 percent safe ice.

While we regularly risked (braved?) the raging whitewaters of spring thaw in nothing more than a flat bottom jon boat, and launched ourselves off towering cliffs, I expect the most dangerous aspect of our misadventures occurred during the winter months, when we skated on the thin river ice.

I remember only a few incidents when my companions fell through the pond ice, but there were dozens of mid-winter plunges that occurred on the rivers and streams. How we ever managed to escape such dangerous escapades unscathed, is impossible to understand. It was truly dumb luck, with an emphasis on “dumb”� As temperatures finally begin to tumble, there is a temptation to get out and enjoy the ice-covered and lakes and ponds. But outdoor travelers should beware, especially as temperatures continue to fluctuate. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, an average of five ice related deaths occur in North America every winter and often, they’re a result of poor judgement, and/or alcohol related. The single most common cause of ice related incidents/rescues are

animals on the ice. Often, a rescue is required to save a rescuer that had attempted to rescue a cat or a dog that was on the ice. In this era of Climate Change, ice has become more unpredictable than ever. You can only be sure of the spot that you measured, especially in areas with a flow near inlets and outlets, where ice conditions can change in a period of several hours.

As a rule of thumb, if you don’t know, don’t go� Tomorrow is another day and the fish will still be in the water. If you plan to get out on the ice, ask first, and stay on the packed or marked trail. I always wear an inflatable PFD, and I carry a set of ice picks. I usually carry a hockey stick, or ski poles whenever I venture out on the ice, and I keep a throw rope attached to my pack.

Current ice conditions in the region range from 4-5 inches in the Saranac Lake Region, to less than 2 inches on Lake George and southern Lake Champlain. I prefer at least 6 inches of ice, before I feel safe wandering about the lakes and ponds. I shudder to think of the risks I took as a youth; especially when I consider the potential dangers that such actions posed to the potential rescuers that may have come to my aid.

As the ice continues to set up, it will expand and fracture, rumble, boom and moan. Often, it will heave, and occassionally a stress crack will occur. Sometimes, this can happen underfoot. If so, walk away from the crack in the direction you came from, and move to shore as quickly as possible.

If you do fall in, move to the edge of the ice where you fell in, where it’s likely to be strongest and use ice spikes to pull yourself from the water. Stay low, and roll away from the hole which will distribute you weight. Once out, roll at least 6-feet away from the hole before you attempt to stand and move towards shore. It’s important to note that most deaths related to ice and cold water accidents are not caused by drowning, but rather, by hypothermia. You’ll only have a few minutes to get yourself out before your body becomes too stiff and affected by cold water temperatures to move.

If you witness someone go through the ice, never run towards them. Obviously the ice isn’t safe, and it won’t help matters if you’re both in the water. Call for help if you have a cell phone. Never, ever attempt reach out to a person in the water.

Two people in the water vastly reduces the potential for rescue. Be sure to mark the location for rescuers by alining two sticks on shore pointing to the site.

If you can, locate a long stick, rope or other such material to reach out to them. If you have to, cut the seatbelts out of your truck, or break down saplings from the nearby woods. Tie shirts or jackets together to make a rope, jumper cables and even use shoelaces if necessary. Locate something to reach out to the person, and lie on your stomach to distribute your weight. Extend a branch, pole, or throw a rope to the person and back away from the hole to pull them out of the water, and look for a canoe or possible flotation device in nearby boathouses. If there’s no help available, you can attempt to coach the victim from a safe distance to put their arms on the

Quit complaining and get cutting!

I

was down to the local lumber yard recently, and some of us were solving the world’s problems, you know, that waiting in line to check out chit chat that takes place at the local building supply.

Lumber yards are a great place to solve the world’s problems. It’s a place where you get a pick-up truck load of working men’s and women’s, points of view on life. Carpenters and the other builders of this country, with a wad of chew, pencils stuck behind their ear, measuring tapes on their belt and once in a while a gal with a 22 ounce Estwing framing hammer slung down low on the hip, gun slinger style. The hammers handle, banging on her leg as she struts through the shop.

This is where the presidential candidates ought to come and hear what the American Citizen thinks; they would definitely get an ear full. It’s a great hangout, hard core talk, hardware, and the atmosphere filled with the aroma of kiln dried lumber and a little B.S. Once the yacking starts, all the world’s problems get solved for the time being anyway. Local and world politics, the economy, gun rights, and recreational concerns such as fishing and hunting, the slate of issues is unlimited. The interests and affairs of America are evaluated and critiqued by folks who eat chili, bologna sandwiches and twisted cruller donuts, not $1,000 a plate contribution dinners.

Once America’s problems were solved, we mellowed out and went to our recreational affairs. As conversations go, this one was about deer hunting and how things went this past season. Many seemed to have the same opinion; the deer

hunting was poor.

I was out in Western NY, and our group saw very few deer, only a few bucks were taken. From what I hear, many others had the same luck. Maybe it’s the hard winter, or maybe it was way too warm this past hunting season, or too dry to still hunt, or too wet or too something else. I don’t know the true answer, but I do know that when you are at that local meeting place, opinions are many, and this time was no exception.

The day we solved the world’s problems, it was 65 degrees out, in late December. The idle talk turned to how this could be a good year for wildlife, if the weather doesn’t get too fierce. After the last two long winters, both man and beast need a break.

Habitat and food were discussion points. The one thing we all agreed on is that for wildlife to survive, they need protective shelter and lots of high energy food.

Depending on where you hunt, the food source is variable. Lowland farm country has residual food in farm fields, hedgerows, logged areas for browse and the diverse habitat that will support numerous wildlife species.

Hunting high country has its limitations, the main one being food. The state land just doesn’t support the populations

ice. If it’s cold enough, their wet clothing will freeze to the ice, which may hold them if the rescue is prolonged. Coach them to pull and kick to get their waist to come up in the water and pull with their arms to get their chest on the ice edge, where they can roll out.

By rolling out, they will equalize the load on the ice edge as much as possible which will allow them to escape without overloading the ice and making a new hole or simply expanding the existing hole.

of whitetail deer or ruffed grouse as managed woodlands, a simple fact. Yes, there are deer and some stray grouse there, but per square mile; the population is low, due to the lack of quality habitat and feed.

Last year was an exceptional year for acorns; this year once again, the apple crop was fantastic. Usually apples don’t last all winter. The clingers, as I call them, hang on trees for quite a while, until a hard freeze or strong winds sweep them off their branches.

This year has been unusual, I have a wild apple tree that I have never pruned, that produces massive amounts of apples, mainly because the tree gets sun and a good supply of moisture. This year so far, there are still apples clinging to branches in mid-January, and it is being used as a food source for two ruffed grouse.

Anyway, I chimed in saying people always complain about the lack of food, but many do very little to help out. It was noted by one fellow standing in line, that all you one need to do is take a drive around the county and look at all the apple trees that are being shaded out. Apple trees, on the eve of destruction. Darkness dominates, taking command of the habitat.

The discussion then lead to the fact that all a person needs to do is open up the area around apple trees, so they get the life giving sunlight they require to survive. It’s just that simple.

My friend Eric then said, the guys just need to “stop complaining and get cutting”, and I agreed, and said, that’s the next article, here’s to you Eric for laying it on the line. Once again, it’s just that simple, quite complaining and get cutting.

Voting is a right we Americans have, if you don’t like what is happening, don’t complain, pull the lever for the candidate who shares your opinion, if you don’t, don’t whine.
