Manhunt sparks skittishness, but also bright spots of humanity

Superintendent Dan Mannix discussed the new NYSED grant for Extended Learning Time (ELT) Thursday, June 11, at 5 p.m. in the Beekmantown High School library.

LaForest to run for Plattsburgh Town Supervisor

BEEKMANTOWN Ñ When Superintendent Dan Mannix arrived to Beekmantown Central School District two years ago, Beekmantown had been decimated by fi ve years of dramatic cuts: over 80 offerings for students and 60 positions to be exact.

Recently, Beekmantown Central School District was awarded over $6 million by a NYSED grant for Extended Learning Time (ELT).

“When kids participate in Extended Learning Time opportunities led by training and caring adults, they improve their attitude toward learning, exhibit fewer behavioral problems and are more likely to graduate,” Mannix said. “We want to coach and develop our students so they can continuously strengthen their achievement.”

The school district will receive over $3 million for the 20152016 and 2016-2017 school years.

Beekmantown plans to model its school after KIPP Public Charter Schools and Matthew J Kuss Middle School in Massachusetts with four ELT goals in mind: increase school attendance, increase/stabilize graduation rates, improve school discipline and improve school achievement.

One-man North Branch Farm: from beef to heirloom figs Joe Orefice shares raised, historical goods from his farm

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com SARANAC — Just a man and his dog, Joe Orefice shares what he creates on his farm to all in the Town of Saranac.

“It is my form of creative expression,” he said. “It is hard, physical work, but it is something I enjoy having in my life.”

North Branch Farm is a 78-acre diversified farm located on the banks of Saranac River in the Adirondack Mountains.

Owned and operated by Joe, the farm specializes in vegetables, pastured beef and family heirloom figs.

FAMILY FIGS In 1938, Joe’s great grandparents, Giuseppe and Antonia, first generation Italian Americans, acquired their first fig tree from Faicchio, Italy, GiuseppeÕ s birthplace.

Every year, Giuseppe would harvest the sweet purple figs in the summer and before winter, he would bury the fig trees in the ground by cutting half of the roots and folding them into the side of the hill on his farm in Connecticut.

Giuseppe passed away in 1981, but the tradition of growing fig trees continues by his grandson Michael from Golden Acres

Farm in Connecticut and his great-grandson Joe, who brought them to the North Country from Connecticut.

“The people were very excited about figs,” Joe said. “Right now, IÕ m really building my infrastructure to raise more and more figs.”

Fig trees grown on North Branch Farm are duplicates, genetically identical of the original tree imported by Giuseppe in 1938.

Joe reproduces them using colonial methods such as breaking off a sprout and planting it or rooting a stick from the tree.

In the winter, unlike his grandfather since the Adirondack winters deem more harsh than ones in Connecticut, he stores the trees in his basement and, when it gets warmer, on his walk around porch and replants them in May until they ripen in August and September.

Joe started this process two years ago after he bought the pink painted, red-roofed house and land in 2010.

JOEÕ S FARM Joe, along with his trusty canine companion, Alice, bought the farm five years ago at 24 years old when he started working at Paul Smith’s College as a forestry teacher.

He teaches from September to May, but during May through August, he farms.

Since the owner before him didnÕ t farm, he started raising cattle to keep the land open and bring the land back in production — a process known as silvopasture.

Silvopasture is the sustainable production of livestock, pasture and trees on the same unit of land.

A managed agroforestry practice, something Joe researches at Paul Smith’s, silvopasture reduces heat/cold stress on cattle, provides high quality forage and allows for multiple use of wooded land.

The cattle purchased for this practice, including Scottish Highland, Belted Galloway and White-faced Hereford, are grass fed, rotationally grazed and sold for meat.

He also raises high quality and all natural fruits and vegetables — garlic, onions, beets, carrots, greens, tomatoes, squash, apples, kale, Swiss chard, herbs and more — in and out of his large greenhouse and sells them to local farmers’ markets.

“I like to each fresh vegetables,” Joe said. “So, I figured if I’m going to eat fresh vegetables, I might as well grow as many and sell as many as I can.”

FARMERSÕ MARKETS After establishing a system, Joe began selling to farmersÕ markets two years ago, starting at Saranac Lake Market.

Last year, Joe, along with other local farmers, started Saranac

In 1938, Joe Orefice’s great grandparents, Giuseppe and Antonia, acquired their first fig tree from Italy. Today, Joe sells duplicates genetically identical to the original tree using colonial methods such as breaking of a sprout and planting it or rooting a stick from another identical tree.

Joe manages the market that contains different farmers and crafters, including Woven Meadows, Northern View Gifts, HidIn-Pines Vineyard, Trombley’s, Custom Woodworking, Stonehouse Farm and Deer Meadow Farm.

Joe said he’s looking forward to the second year of selling his vegetables, USDA-inspected beef and family heirloom figs and fig trees to people in the town.

“My animals are healthy because I take care of them and my vegetables are nutritious and delicious because I grow them naturally, in soil, with composted manure as people have done for thousands of years,” Joe said. “People should taste what I grow because what I grow tastes great and itÕ s the healthiest you can find.”

Saranac Lake Market is open Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. until early October. Saranac Green Market is open Sundays starting July 5 to Sept. 13 from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Both markets are producer only, meaning folks can only sell items they actually raise or make themselves.

To ask to become a vendor for the Saranac Green Market, contact Joe at 518-293-1380. For more information, visit the Facebook page “Saranac Green Market” or North Branch Farm’s website (www.adkfigs.com).

Republican LaForest to run for Plattsburgh Town Supervisor

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Town of Plattsburgh Republican Committee announced the candidacy of Vasso LaForest for Plattsburgh Town Supervisor.

“He has deep roots in the community, a tremendous background in business and a deep affection and love for the North Country,” said James Carlin, chair of the Town of Plattsburgh Republican Committee. “I think he’s a great candidate and will do a great job for the people in the Town of Plattsburgh.”

If elected, LaForest plans to take his background in business and finance to bring new businesses and jobs to the community Ñ bringing more employment to both current and future residents.

LaForest’s game plan includes making sure that the town will use its financial resources to the best of its ability to guarantee that residents are getting their needs met with issues such as the communityÕ s aging infrastructure.

“I would like to see the town continue to grow and be the best that it can be,” LaForest said. “I certainly believe I can be of help and I have the credentials to do it.”

FINANCIAL CREDENTIALS LaForest currently works as a CPA (certified public accountant) and real estate broker with offices in the Town of Plattsburgh, owns the tax practice First Financial Service and serves as a member of the Town of Plattsburgh Zoning Board of Appeals.

His previous experience includes serving three and a half years as a Saranac Central School Board Member, working as a finance controller for a printing company, and having worked for several years as a public accountant with KPMG in Boston, Fort Lauderdale and Burlington.

“I have the professional background,” LaForest said. “I think it gives me support to do what I have to do.”

After moving from Boston to Fort Lauderdale to Burlington, LaForest wanted to return back to the Town of Plattsburgh.

LAFOREST ROOTS He first lived in Cadyville when his parents moved to the Town of Plattsburgh in 1974.

He graduated from Saranac High School in 1983 and went onto college, graduating from SUNY Plattsburgh in 1988 with a B.S. degree in accounting.

After receiving his degree, he left and came back and worked for a small manufacturing company until he was asked to buy, and eventually Vasso LaForest own, First Financial Service.

LaForest now lives in Cadyville with his wife, Angela, who he met in Burlington, and two boys, Lucas and Alexander, and has worked in the town for a total of 30 years.

Now, he hopes to be its supervisor.

“It gives me a chance to help lead the Town of Plattsburgh

forward over the coming years,” LaForest said. “People should vote for me because I’m trustworthy, have an objective view and love the area.

“It’s a place I call ‘home.’”

DEMOCRATIC OPPONENT On April 13, Plattsburgh Town Councilman Michael Cashman announced his candidacy for the office of Plattsburgh Town Supervisor.

Cashman outlined his campaign focused on economic development, increasing the standard of living and updating the communityÕ s aging infrastructure.

His No. 1 priority is to bring good Michael Cashman paying, new jobs to the community, while simultaneously keeping those jobs in Plattsburgh.

He will work to develop a sound capital budget while revisiting the townÕ s master plan.

He also plans to commission a group to develop a comprehensive, long-term study assessing and recommending solutions to address Plattsburgh’s infrastructure deficit, along with incorporating more 21st century services such as online billing.

“I will have an open door policy,” Cashman said in a previous interview. Ò I will try to bring about opportunities for collaboration that will provide individuals to share their thoughts and opinions so that we can come as close as possible to a shared vision not only for our municipality, but for our region.”

Run for Rosie raises funds in fight against domestic violence

By Teah Dowling

Ò The event is a wonderful event that supports a great cause and is in memory of an amazing woman,” Maynard said. “I am thankful for the lessons that my mom taught me and I miss her and think of her every day.”

For more information, check out the Facebook page “6th Annual Run For Rosie.” If one can’t make it to the event but wishes to donate, contact Maynard at 518-335-7421 or visit the donation page (www.youcaring.com/nonprofits/6th-annual-run-forrosie/348857).

teah@denpubs.com CADYVILLE — The 6th Annual Run for Rosie will take place Saturday, June 27, at the Cadyville Rec Park from 8 to 11 a.m. in honor of Rose Rascoe-Maynard.

“My mom was an amazing woman and was admired by many,” Andrea Maynard said. Ò She was a dedicated mother, daughter, sister and friend whose life was sadly taken sooner than it should be.”

Registration starts at 8 a.m. with a 1 mile walk/run starting at 9 a.m. and a 5K walk/run starting at 9:30 a.m.

Cost is $10 donation and the first 100 registrants will receive a free T-shirt upon registration.

A majority of the proceeds will go toward STOP Domestic Violence, a program that assists victims through a 24-hour hotline, while $300 will go to a scholarship for a student at Seton Catholic in honor of Rascoe-Maynard.

The Run for Rosie started the summer of 2010, the summer after she was killed. She was a supporter of Seton cross country and track teams, not just because Maynard ran for them, but because she loved running and walking herself, especially at Cadyville Rec Park.

“We only lived a mile from the park and mom would often go to the park to run and walk in the woods,” Maynard said. “She loved the peace and serenity that she found walking and running in the woods that surrounded the park.”

Seton and St. John graduates attended the first-ever Run for Rosie event in honor of fellow runner Rose Rascoe-Maynard. The sixth annual run will take place at the Cadyville Rec Park - a place where she loved to run.

Photo provided One day, the Seton Catholic cross country and track coaches, Kathleen Champagne and Keith Bombard, went to the family and suggested hosting a run to help raise money for a possible scholarship in Rascoe-MaynardÕ s name.

For the first run, all donations went to a scholarship offered to a graduating student from Seton Catholic. The second year, the donations were split down the middle between STOP Domestic Violence and the North Country Mission of Hope. For the last three years, all donations went to STOP Domestic Violence since RascoeMaynard lost her life to domestic violence.

Editorial

H

Both have given indication that the economy and issues surrounding a stagnant middle class will be central in the dialogue to come.

Foreign donor issues aside, the other main contributors to ClintonÕ s campaign Ñ Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Lehman Brothers, to name a few Ñ should raise eyebrows when she makes promises to fi ght for the middle class.

Sanders, meanwhile, is running a campaign that’s largely fi nanced by unions. And on top of that, the national trend of the rich getting richer at the expense of the rest of America has been something heÕ s rallied against for decades.

That dividing line between the two will make the coming months nothing short of interesting. If domestic economic issues prove to be a major driver in the polls, will the blue folk around the country stick to what seems their best chance against the Republicans Ñ the Clinton brand Ñ or gamble on someone likelier to back up promises with action?

In the end, our next president will be in offi ce by way not only of votes, but the money it took to get him or her there. It leads one to wonder with whom loyalties will lie then.

Since Sanders has put his name in the hat, heÕ s slowly crept up the the No. 2 spot behind Clinton, though the gap between the two, about 50 points, remains substantial.

But with the general election now less than 18 months away, and primaries and caucuses to kick off in February of next year, the scrutiny and attention will only grow.

The reality is that come time to cast a presidential ballot, party affi liation will decide for whom most votes are placed, and thatÕ s exactly why now is a pivotal time in which we decide which two we’ll send to the fi nals.

Will it be Clinton? A safe bet, perhaps. But SandersÕ presence as a viable alternative is good for the process. We as citizens need all the opportunity we can get to fl ex our collective muscles politically, especially in a day and age when the few and powerful have substantial sway in our nationÕ s capital.

Which candidate to get the nod will be up in the air for sometime, but if it is to be Clinton, she better have earned it. And who better to highlight the major issues than Sanders, in many ways the frontrunnerÕ s opposite.

Sanders may not have your vote, but he should have your attention. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Publisher’s Column

Good to have Sanders in the race illary Clinton has seemed, for years now, a virtual shoe-in to be the next Democrat to run for president. The one-two punch of big name, big money Ñ more so than reputation or policy Ñ has left her seemingly alone in the push for the party nod.

That said, Bernie: ItÕ s nice to have you aboard.

This isnÕ t an endorsement for Sanders, who serves as Vermont’s junior senator, but rather what his 2016 presidential campaign represents: Choice, discourse and a nomination that isnÕ t handed out, but earned.

LetÕ s face it, come election day, weÕ re effectively left with options A and B. And if one of those is going to be Clinton, itÕ d be a disservice to voters if she was only there by way of capital and family.

The run for the top offi ce has, after all, become increasingly skewed: Hot-button topics, super PACs, mud-slinging. Candidates tip-toe what’s polarizing and stick to the talking points. It’s less about qualifi cations and more so the ability the sell an image.

And thatÕ s exactly why, when Sanders stepped into the ring, the nation let out a collective chuckle. But that has started to change.

In a recent Wisconsin Democratic straw poll, the senator pulled a surprising 41 percent, just eight points behind Clinton and an indicator of a campaign thatÕ s growing in legitimacy.

While Sanders ousting Clinton for the nomination may not be likely, his challenging of the former Secretary of State is healthy for the democratic process. Clinton has quietly navigated the press amidst criticism ranging from personal email use to who her donors are; Sanders has come out fi ring. He wants to debate Ñ often, in red states and blue Ñ giving the race at least some semblance of one not entirely decided by money.

Imagine that, a race that isnÕ t wholly driven by dollar signs.

But even the senator knows there’s only so much he can do against the grain. HeÕ s pulled off running as an independent in Vermont, but the picture changes nationally. There are symbolic campaigns and there are fi ghting campaigns. If thereÕ s no beating a partyÉ The pitting of Sanders against Clinton gives voters a chance to decide whatÕ s most important. The Vermonter is, after all, the yin to ClintonÕ s yang.

Letters to the Editor

Have fun without drinking and driving To the Editor: Summer is approaching and we are headed into the busy tourist season, many people visit Hamilton County to vacation and relax. As District Attorney it is my goal that tourists and residents alike stay safe during this busy period. On the highways, in particular, safety is a compelling concern.

On Nov. 18, 2009, New York State adopted Leandra’s Law. It is named after 11-year-old Leandra Rosado, who was killed in a crash while a passenger in a car driven by a drunken driver. With a passage of the law, New York mandated installation of an ignition interlock device for all misdemeanor and felony drunk driving convictions.

A person who has an interlock ignition on their vehicle must blow into the device to prove that they have not consumed alcohol. If the device detects alcohol, the vehicle will not operate. It also created a new felony charge for a DWI offender with a child passenger 15 years old or younger in the car. These changes in the law will help, but the hazard of drunk driving still remains high.

Drinking and driving is a serious offense with serious consequences to the offender. Not only do offenders risk themselves, they also rick their passengers and anyone else who happens to be in their path.

I encourage all to have a fun-fi lled summer. But keep it safe. Don’t

drink and drive. And, if you get the opportunity to be a designated driver, be sure to take it.

Marsh King Purdue Hamilton County DA

Senators stop the haters To the Editor: I call on you to reject all rent control bills and legislation. These are just further examples of democracy hating NYC scum. They just interfere and deny property owners their rights to charge a nominal fee that allows them to make a profi t and maintain the property they own. Absolutely NO state taxpayer funds should be used for this purpose. These people have shown their hatred of private property owners, fi rearm owners, and our Bill of Rights in every action they have put before the legislature in Albany. It is time to tell them NO, and send them back to their sewer!

It is time for you to stand resolved to oppose every bill originating from this sewer and these Bill of Rights haters! 52 counties demand an end to their dictatorship! 52 Counties demand the total repeal of Cuomo’s UNSAFE ACT of 2013! 52 Counties demand an equal voice in all state legislation! No rent control or other anti-Bill of Rights legislation!

Total, immediate repeal of Cuomo’s UNSAFE ACT of 2013!

The BackPack Program, which started last October, provides children with a suffi cient supply of food from October to June, most in family-size portions, during the weekend, giving them a two-day supply of food, including two breakfast items, three entrée items, fresh or canned fruit, snacks and juice.

On a bi-weekly basis, children also receive a milk card to be redeemed at Stewart’s Shops for a gallon of milk.

“Hunger hurts,” Bishop said. “It could be extremely detrimental to a young childÕ s development and everyday there are children who wake up hungry, end the day hungry and then go to bed hungry.”

The BackPack Program’s main goal is to ensure that chronically hungry children receive suffi cient food to combat childhood hunger and the negative effects of insuffi cient food intake on one’s health and development.

So far, the program serves 90 children in the City of Plattsburgh — Bailey, Beaumont and Oak. The JCEO Community Action Angels hopes to expand the program in the future.

“For some children, the weekend means no school; for others, the weekend means no food,” Bishop said. “These economically disadvantaged children are in need of our community support.”

The program is a collaborative project made possible with the support of JCEOÕ s Community Action Angels Advisory Board and the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York.

For more information on the event or program, contact Bishop at 518-561-6310 or bishop@jceo.org.

CCC faculty, staff recognized for excellence

Show the love: Tie a blue ribbon round the ole oak tree!

I

Õ m not very smart and have few original ideas. Others keep me well supplied and I sometimes pass them on. Once becoming a full time area resident, I soon discovered there is something special about this spot on GodÕ s good earth.

I donÕ t need to mention the lake, the mountains, the rivers and all the local fl ora and fauna. They are a given when you visit or reside here.

However, there are many additional

by Gordie Little ingredients that constitute what we call our “quality of life.” We touted them in the ‘90s when we tried desperately to save the Air Force base.

I am grateful for this space to talk about other things that we sometimes take for granted. I’m old, so nostalgia is a way of life. When I began a long radio career, I swept into town with an ego that made me present myself (as my mother used to tell me) as far too big for my britches.

People began to call and told me to “get down off your high horse” (another of my mother’s phrases) and join them at ground level. They said it so lovingly that I immediately began to develop a new persona that embraced something my preacher dad had tried in vain to instill in me: humility. I realized that my perceived importance was nil and I should look for goodness in others. Toward that end, I decided to call myself Ò Gordie Little, WhoÕ s He?” on the air and explained that I didn’t matter nearly as much as those who were listening.

The faucet of North Country love was thus opened full force. We ran successful street drives raising tens of thousands for worthy causes. We embraced individuals and organizations that were dedicated to helping others. Any time a need was pointed out, it was fulfi lled. It happened, not just once, but over and over.

It was always amazing and wonderful for me.

When we asked for contributions, businesses and individuals and organizations responded quickly.

Small children emptied their piggy banks and brought their pennies to us. I often shed tears of joy. What a marvelous place to live.

IÕ m writing this on my 78th birthday and IÕ m still feeling the loveÑ not for me, but for those helping in the search for two escaped killers. Joining our beloved corrections offi cers from here and all over the state are New York State Troopers, Homeland Security, FBI and more.

We began wishing there was some way we could let all these people know how much we appreciated their dedication. Some searchers remained in the thick woods and swamps for 36 hours without sleep. Others manned roadblocks in searing heat and torrential rains. I listened and watched the love coming back to them as people began delivering food and drinks and other amenities to them directly where they were working. Businesses sent everything from toiletries to pizzas and michigans with and without onions.

Rooms were donated, warm socks and other items were forthcoming.

But, what could we do collectively as a show of our gratitude? Facebook follower Dawn Laundry had an idea: ribbons. We could put ribbons on our homes and fences and cars. It was reminiscent of the yellow ribbons in the Viet Nam era when we sang with Tony Orland and Dawn in a song called “Tie a Yellow Ribbon ‘Round the Old Oak Tree.”

This time, blue was the color of choice because of blue uniforms on many of those involved. We were pleased to take the idea and run with it. Soon, the stores were busy selling ribbon; people were cutting up old blue clothing and making bows of their blue neckties. To say that I was personally moved by this outpouring of love, would be an understatement. It was and is awesome and wonderful.

We all hope and pray that by the time you read this that the search is over; but in case it is not, we urge you to make your own blue bows and put them out where our heroes can see them. Thank you in advance for making this region an outstanding place to live and work and visit and LOVE.

Woodmen of the World holds awards banquet

ALTONA — Woodmen of the World Chapter 462 held its 41st annual awards banquet recently at the Rainbow Wedding and Banquet Hall in Altona. Chapter Secretary Tim Gonyo served as Master of Ceremonies.

The first presentation of the evening was to St. Mary’s in Champlain. The Woodmen recognized the tragedy of the Jan. 16 fire that destroyed the former St. Mary’s Academy facilities. To assist the parish, and to thank the many firefighters who responded to the blaze from 20 area fire companies, WOW presented a $500 check to the St. MaryÕ s Bazaar to purchase one hundred concession stand meals for the first responders (five meals per 20 fire departments). A brand new American flag was then presented to the Champlain Fire Department.

Lifesaver awards were given to Debbie St. Clair and to NYS Trooper Christopher Gonyo for their efforts in alerting the residents of a Mooers apartment building that was destroyed by a Nov. 10 inferno. Trooper Gonyo described the events of that fateful evening to the large gathering and heaped praise upon St. Clair for her part in seeing that all of her neighbors were safely evacuated.

Woodmen member Gordie Little then presented the “Caring for Others” award to David Justus in recognition of his 45 years of providing food, shelter, and Christmas gifts to needy families throughout the Clinton County area. The number of people directly affected by his (and his wife, MarionÕ s) generosity over the years numbers well over 10,000.

This year the local Woodmen gave two Ò Community Leadership/Citizen of the Year” awards, to the co-chairmen of the annual, highly successful Battle of Plattsburgh commemoration committee, Kit Booth and Gary VanCour. Chapter President David Blixt presented the awards, while MC Gonyo read off the duo’s

accomplishments over the past 18 years that culminated with the celebration of the battleÕ s 200th anniversary this past September. MC Gonyo described the battle as the most significant event in the history of Clinton County, and emphasized the importance of the region having properly recognized this important milestone in 2014.

Chapter President Blixt and his wife, Ella, were presented with the “Fraternal Excellence Award” for their extensive efforts throughout the community in a great variety of organizations. The award was presented by Chapter Trustee Amy House.

Attendees of the banquet brought in food items and made cash donations for the local food shelves.

Manhunt

From page 1 field that he said was once a prison farm where trustees would often get away.

“After a little manhunt, they’d catch them,” he said.

Fink adjusted his .44 magnum, slung low across his hips.

“It’s just to protect me and my wife,” he said, noting he had a concealed carry permit.

“The prison is a normal thing around here.”

Early Friday, law enforcement entered a state of high alert after a tip Ñ one of some 700 leads state police have received over the past week — led to a swarm of activity around Cringle Road, just a straight shot west from Fink’s home.

Fink said he hadn’t seen anything suspicious, only “a lot of well-behaved law enforcement.”

A new normal has settled over this stretch of suburbia just south of Clinton Correctional Facility, where roadblocks remained on Saturday and the sight of black-clad correctional officers moving in precise, military-type formations has become almost commonplace.

All say they want a quick end to the hunt, which has now entered its second week.

A car slowed and a man with a long beard stuck his head out: “Catch anyone yet?”

A reporter shook his head and the truck continued northwest toward Dannemora.

Robin Downey sat on her porch, surrounded by the chatter of several small children.

Just yards away, lights flashed in the falling mist as troopers in orange raincoats stopped vehicles, their firearms pointing skyward.

Labrador retriever mix, yellow, arrived April 14, 2015, at 64 pounds, two years old, female.

Molly is a sweet girl that was found running at large in the city of Plattsburgh, New York. This girl was very well loved but was re-homed recently. The new owner refused to come forward when asked and the original owners cannot take Molly back. So, Miss Molly is looking for her forever home. She does love to pull when walked and will need to learn some leash manners. Molly enjoys being with people and pleasing people as well. She is a gorgeous and energetic dog that would love to have a yard to play in. She is current on

Downey, a day care provider whose husband works as a correctional officer, said she wasn’t concerned about herself, but rather the children under her care.

“It’s been rough,” she said. “I don’t know if this will have a lasting effect on the kids.”

Like others, Downey has been glued to media coverage of each development in the fast-moving case.

ItÕ s one that has gripped the nation and brought scores of media outlets to the quiet community where top news is usually community events like the Cadyville Field Day — which was cancelled on Saturday, much to the disappointment of local residents — than whispers of murderers skulking through the woods and mercurial rumors that seem to spread like wildfire, especially on social media.

Downey said she has mixed feelings about the constant news coverage, especially when different television stations issue reports with conflicting information.

“I’ve heard so many different things,” said Downey. “You end up having to weed some of it out, or not even listening to any of it.”

Nearby, the clouds opened up over a garage sale. The proprietors sat in lawn chairs watching their neighbors peruse items, neatly folded t-shirts and paperback books, shrouded in plastic.

“The sale must go on,” laughed Marty Bedard. “We had to clear out my basement.”

“Why live in fear?” asked his mother, Pat. But, she admitted, she did give a pair of reporters a cautious glance as they walked up the driveway.

Saranac Central remained closed for the second consecutive day on Friday, a measure that irritated Tina, MartyÕ s daughter, who said she now had to take all five of her Regents exams on Monday Ñ if the district will reopen, that is.

State police said on Friday that the search will continue until every lead is exhausted. Ò We do not have any conclusive evidence that either of the inmates have left this area,” said Charles Guess, the state police major who is spearheading the investigation, at a news conference in the cafeteria of TinaÕ s school late Friday.

Despite the tension, bright spots have surfaced in the community.

Twinstate Technologies, a cybersecurity firm located near where media have been stationed since early Thursday at the intersection of Route 374 and Rand Hill Road, have allowed their restrooms to be used.

They also have spearheaded the collection of food from local business owners, distributing items to law enforcement officials and the news media, for whom they have set up a tent and table with only one requirement: “Please remember we’re northern New York — not upstate,” read a print-out affixed to the table.

Dawn Currier Juneau said the effort started when she and her colleagues brought a cooler of drinks to the troopers.

“They’ve been here all the time and can’t go anywhere,” she said. “We thought we could share what we had.”

A few phone calls later led to more local businesses coming forward, including the Pizza Palace in nearby Plattsburgh.

While owner Scott Wright instructed his staffers to do whatever they could to help the troopers, he wished he could do more.

“I’d like to be in woods helping them,” he said. “Enough is enough.”

vaccinations, has tested negative for Heartworm, is spayed and is ready to meet her new family! ***UPDATE*** Molly was out in a home on a trial period, but she was too aggressive with the neighboring dogs and pulled way too much. Molly needs to be in a home where she will be the only pet. She is an exuberant dog that needs to be with her people most of the time. Molly likes to have lots of toys to engage with when she is left alone. She also suffers from entropion (the eyelid rolls in instead of out causing irritation) which will require surgery to repair. Every dog deserves a loving home, but Molly has been waiting for hers for a very long time. Molly was diagnosed and treated for Lyme Disease; this was verified by a vet. She is a special girl in need of a loving home with a kind and patient family. She likes to jump up like a kangaroo and give kisses...we are working on deterring that with positive reinforcement. Come in and meet this great dog who is ready to go home.

Ellie is a loving and engaging cat that loves to interact with people. She was surrendered, along with her litter of six, by her owners because they couldnÕ t provide the cats with care.

THE PROCESS Beekmantown Central School District, for two years, applied for every grant possible Ñ the only school in the state to apply for as many grants.

After being repeatedly turned down, the school district found a grant that could transform the district. They applied and received notice after one and half years.

They adjusted the grant application and discussed the changes with the administrative team and Board of Education.

After meetings with stakeholders — students, parents and staff groups Ñ to inform and discern interest, which is still happening today, the Board of Education accepted the grant.

The Beekmantown Teachers’ Association also decided to extend their day to help implement the grant.

“If you look at where we are today and where we need to go tomorrow, we don’t have the necessary resources to get there,” Mannix said. Ò Our goal is to provide a great education for every student that walks through these doors.”

The next steps include establishing committees (Extended Learning Time Committee and Extended Learning Time Alliance), hiring staff, creating opportunities for student learning, implementing these steps and re-evaluating after one year.

BRINGING BACK Starting this summer, Beekmantown will bring back drivers education and will also be offering free breakfast and lunches, something that might be offered in the 2015-2016 school year.

The school district plans to bring back more adventure-based learning, STEM opportunities, culture-based learning and the arts.

Tracy Lesniewski, mother of 11th grader Dylan, was glad to

FUTURE CONCERNS After Mannix spoke at the informative meeting on Thursday, June 11, a concerned parent asked the question: what happens in two years when the money runs out?

Mannix replied that there could be a possibility of this continuing. Newly hired professionals are aware that this could only be a two-year job.

At the end of two years, if the district does not get offered another year, the schools will decide what they should keep and what they should eliminate.

“We’re anticipating that it will go away in two years,” Mannix said. Ò If we have to retool, weÕ ll retool.

“The goal is to try to make what’s possible in education real with the resources that the grant provides now and weÕ re going to do that here in Beekmantown.”

ning school 13 minutes earlier.

The day will continue on until 2:49 p.m., 27 minutes longer than the current dismissal time.

In terms of the Beekmantown and Cumberland Head elementary schools, classes will start at 8:50 a.m., 15 minutes earlier than usual, and end at 3:45 p.m., 25 minutes later than usual.

For all four schools, Fridays will differ from the rest of the week.

While the high school/middle school will start at 7:15 a.m. and end at 2:15 p.m., the two elementary schools will start at 8:45 a.m. and end at 3:25 p.m.

In terms of lunch period, the elementary students will have lunch and guaranteed recess with school monitors. High school/ middle school students will have 23 minutes of lunch along with 23 minutes of something of their choice, including, but not limited to, going to the study lab, fitness center, library, music lessons and computer room.

Six more minutes will be built into every period, giving teachers more time with their students and vice versa.

Jamie McClatchie, mother of 6th grader Issac and 1st grader Lucas, shared her excitement with the program.

“Both of my kids are struggling students academically,” she shared. “It takes them a little while to learn, so I think this extra time in the classroom is really going to benefit them.”

With this, extended days and the money from the grants, students will have more opportunities to participate in a variety of different classes, clubs and activities along with extra time with teachers.

LONGER DAYS For the high school/middle school students, the busses will unload at 7:17 a.m. and teaching will begin at 7:25 a.m., begin-

DIVIDING UP The Beekmantown Central School Grant divided up the money per year in six different sections.

The grant will pay for new staff members to help facilitate learning, teaching and proper implementation of the grant. These positions include two administrators, an accountant, a typist and more.

Over $300,000 will go to partner with organizations including, but not limited to, the Beekmantown Youth Commission, Strand Theatre, YMCA, SUNY Plattsburgh, College for Every Student and others.

Field trip and classroom lab excursions will receive $125,000 and professional development and site visits will receive $60,000.

An amount of $185,000 will go toward student teacher technology and $84,000 will go toward BAZ supplies.

In terms of hands on learning, money will go toward classroom lab equipment ($84,000), the career and tech learning lab ($50,000) and CTE and PBL learning ($75,000).

Approximately, $50,000 will go toward transportation staffing due to a demand for more runs, more drivers and changes to routes because of extended school days.

“It’s not just more time...it’s time that’s valuable for students, valuable for learning,” Mannix explained. “We wanted more time with our kids to do more fun and engaging opportunities that have gone away and been decimated here at Beekmantown.”

Beekmantown High School, Beekmantown Middle School, Beekmantown Elementary School and Cumberland Head Elementary School will now be receiving over $6 million for Extended Learning Time (ELT).

The school district will receive over $3 million for the 2015-2016 school year and another $3 million for the 2016-2017 school year.

“He’s very musically oriented, very artistic,” she said. “I think that it will be a good thing for him.”

In terms of classes, Beekmantown would like to incorporate more CAPP classes and, more importantly, classes for students who arenÕ t on the college pathway.

Danielle Darrah, mother of 6th grader Zoe and 4th grader Abbigale, shared her previous experience when she attended Beekmantown of many different classroom and club offerings that her two girls donÕ t have today.

“I think it’s going to provide them with some of the opportunities that used to be here at the school,” she said. “I’m excited to see those things coming back.”

The school district is open to any suggestion of a field trip, club or activity made by students, teachers and parents.

Fly fishing competition lands in Placid

O

nce again the USA Fly Fishing Competition came to Lake Placid.

Some of the top fl y fi shing guys from around the country, gathered to test their skills and try their luck on the West Branch of the Ausable and Mirror Lake.

This year the Saranac River was added to the repertoire, to form a triad of fi shing waters with shorelines, pockets, riffl es, runs and pools to fi sh.

By Rich Redman Both the calm waters of the lake and the fast boulder waters of the Saranac and Ausable made for a real challenge.

This was the second year of this event and some of the guys I met last year came back to try once again. Sean Crocker, a Physician’s Assistant, (P.A.) from the Philadelphia area and, Andy Szofran, from Montana, were both back for another try, along with some new faces like Josh Miller from the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area.

Some of the controllers from last year were there, along with some newbies’. The volunteer controller’s job is to measure the fi sh, record the catch time, plus, we keep the fi shermen within the confi nes of the designated beat and make sure all the rules of the competition are followed.

The fi rst day out I teamed up with fellow controller, Ellen Jenson, for Ken Crane, the organizer of the event. He fi shed a West Branch Ausable beat, 100 meters long, for a 3 hour period.

It wasn’t long before he had his fi rst Brown Trout, a nice 27 centimeter Brown caught at 8:03, three minutes into the action. His last fi sh was taken at 10:59, a 30 cm Brown, caught on a nymph.

Ken caught 15 fi sh that fi rst 3 hour period.

After lunch, I worked with the P.A., Sean Crocker, who had his own prescription for getting fi sh. Sean worked his way through the boulders and runs like a professional. He had his surgical skills out as he sliced his way through the pocket water in search of trout! His prescription for the day was size 16 and 18 bead head nymphs called “Frenchies” along with a 3 weight 10 foot fl y rod and 18 feet of leader. That was the medicine Sean used to tempt the trout.

The second morning I worked the main stem of the Saranac River, just up from the junction of the North Branch. The rain

Conservation

Conversations

The original anglers N

early 5,000 years ago, a pair of ancient anglers waded out into the frigid waters of the Baltic Sea. Whether they were seeking fi sh for food or simple recreation has never been determined. However their footprints were recorded in the shifting seabed with every step they took.

Evidence of their long-lost prehistoric fi shing trip was recently discovered along with their Stone Age fi shing gear in a dried up fjord, on the island of Lolland in Denmark. Archaeologists uncovered their footprints alongside evidence of a fi shing weir, an angling tool that dates back to around 3,000 B.C. However, they weren’t the fi rst. Anglers were fi shing elsewhere, centuries before those hapless anglers took to the Baltic Sea. Most recently, a fi eld team of archeologists discovered evidence of ancient anglers in East Timor when they uncovered bone fi shing hooks that were carbon dated to about 42,000 years ago.

The East Timor discovery has since been confi rmed as the earliest defi nitive evidence of fi shing equipment in the world.

Although angling is still pursued primarily for consumptive purposes, it remains a popular recreational activity as well. Following the development of recreational angling with rod and reel, angling actually morphed into a competitive activity. Eventually, it led to the creation of the Professional Bass Anglers Society and the Pro Bass Circuit, which spawned a billion dollar competitive bass fi shing industry. Bass angling competitions have now trickled down to both the High School level, with Varsity Bass Fishing Teams, as well as Division 1, College level Bass Fishing teams that regularly provide angler athletes with full scholarship opportunities, in addition to their professional earnings, which may run into the $100,000 range or better.

Since college bass fi shing teams compete under rules established by the BASS Federation, there are none of the restrictions common to NCAA amateur status. If a student angler lands the largest total bag of bass in a tournament, they go back to campus with the cash, just like a pro.

Despite the myriad changes that have occurred since anglers fi rst took to the water in pursuit of fi sh more than 42,000 years ago, angling remains essentially unchanged. It still involves a human attempting to deceive a fi sh into biting whatever he or she has on the end of their fi shing line. I also believe very little has changed in the way anglers describe the size of their catch.

Next to golfers, anglers are quite likely the most notorious, rec-

overnight made things a challenge, white water, frothy foam covered boulders and deep cuts made wading risky business.

I started out with Sean once again, this time to see how his style would change due to the rising waters and being on a different river. As a controller, we are always on the stream edge, ready to measure a fi sh when caught. The shore line of the Saranac and Ausable are two different monsters. The Ausable beats have a more pronounced and fl at fl oodplain, which means that working the shoreline to measure fi sh and do our job, is much easier.

The Saranac shoreline had old mining slag, shot rock and steep banks to work, along with fallen trees and other obstacles to maneuver around. It made the controller work a challenge in itself.

The last beat of the day was with Josh Miller, who works for Forest and Stream, a Pittsburgh PA sporting goods store. They help sponsor Josh who is an up and coming fi shing star! This young lad of 26 years is about 5 foot 6 and weighs about 120 pounds soaking wet. To see him maneuver through the rough waters was something. He was up and over sunken rock and around granite boulders like a fi sh himself. He would climb up on knobs of boulders, and fi sh from them in rushing water, de-

Published by Denton Publications, Inc. termined to fi nd the elusive trout that lay in waiting behind some hidden obstacle on the streams bottom.

It was a slow start, and Josh was getting nervous when he would see a competitor netting a fi sh in the beat below him, but he persevered. At the end of his allotted time, he had 25 fi sh on record for the 3 hour period. He gave me a handful of nymphs he used, and one in particular was his favorite, but I had to swear allegiance to him that I would not disclose the fl y. It was and still is a secret I will keep.

All fi sh are released and the rules call for barbless hooks so very little “hurtin”, is done to the fi sh. As a controller, I released many of the fi sh for the guys I worked with, so I know personally how gently they were handled so they would live another day.

Over the two day period over 600 fi sh were caught and released by these guys who fi shed a Lake and Two Rivers.

At the awards meeting after the event, fi rst place went to Michael Bradley, second to Ken Crane, the guy I worked with the fi rst morning and third place to Dzifa Glymin. The USA Fly Fishing Teams donated over $400 to Tom Conway of the Two Fly Shop for the FRAN BETTERS memorial, a bronze statue of our own Ausable River Fly Fishing patriarch.

This competition is hosted by the Hungry Trout in Wilmington. Thank You Evan!

Sponsors of the event include Umpqua, Loon, Simms, Sage, Titan, Clear Creek, Airfl o and Rio fl y fi shing and sporting equipment.

reational liars on the planet. Although the affl iction of exaggeration affects many sports, it often appears more pronounced in individual sporting events such as golf, angling and bicycling in the Tour de France.

Currently, there are over 50 million active anglers in the United States and according to a study conducted by the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation they arenÕ t all born liars; most learned that skill as they became more familiar with the sport.

As it has for many years, fresh water fi shing remains the most popular outdoor recreational activity in the US, with over 42 million honest participants.

Surveys indicate regular outdoor recreation enthusiasts such as anglers; hikers and paddlers are more likely to have improved physical and mental health, and a greater appreciation of nature and the environment, than non-participants.

This should come as no surprise, as we learn to value and protect the things we cherish. Outdoor activities such as fi shing and boating also serve to promote family bonds and shared values. In fact, angling is recognized as the most common Ô gatewayÕ activity for introducing chldren to the outdoors. It also provides outstanding opportunities for families to share safe, exciting adventures that create family memories. Humans naturally develop strong bonds in the outdoors, as we are instinctively wired to protect each other due to our evolutionary tract as apex predators.

While surveys indicate that it was a father, uncle or a signifi cant male role model that was responsible for introducing nearly 95 percent of all currently active anglers to the sport; female anglers comprise the fastest growing demographic of this increasingly popular outdoor pursuit. From a professionalÕ s perspective, IÕ ve witnessed the growing interest among women who are seeking to learn how to fl y-fi sh. Angling is not exclusively a male domain, as women are well represented among of the worldÕ s fi nest anglers.

Angling is a lifelong recreational skill similar to hiking, paddling or biking, and it may be practiced anywhere there is water.

It is an activity that requires patience, fi nesse, and concentration, combined with intelligence, keen observational skills, and the ability to put up with all sorts of weather conditions, insects and ever changing water conditions. While it is an activity that can be enjoyed individually, it is also an excellent cross-generational activity that can be enjoyed equally regardless of age, physical condition or ability level.

Angling also provides a great gateway for introducing children into the outdoors. It also provides families with an outstanding opportunity to establish bonds and create shared memories that will last far longer than any store-bought gift.

There is also irrefutable evidence that outdoor recreation leads to improved physical, social and mental health. Studies indicate children from recreationally active families grow up to be more satisfi ed with their lives, families, friends, and careers. Sharing outdoor activities provides plenty of opportunities for conversations that can help to bridge the generation gap. Whether young,

old, or somewhere in-between, there is no doubt we are all equal before the fi sh.

In recent surveys, nearly 95 percent of respondents reported it was their father, uncle or a signifi cant, male role model that was the person responsible for introducing them to the sport of fi shing. It is a gift that just keeps on giving, as anglers tend to breed anglers. It has been well established that forest and outdoor settings provide children and adults with a natural place to enjoy solitude and be free from distraction.

It is a place where the only electronic device is a fi shfi nder, and a cell phones are only useful for taking a ‘selfi e’ with a fi sh.

In fact, it may also explain why the Opening Day of Bass Season traditionally coincides with Fathers Day, which arrives on Sunday, June 21. So get your rod, and borrow a kid if you need to, it’s about time to go fi shing!

With a diploma and an Ugly Stick

A list of the top college bass angling teams in the country includes Bethel University, Daytona State College, UNC Charlotte.

New Mexico State University, Auburn University, Georgetown College, Eastern Kentucky University, Kansas State University, and Tarleton State. There are over 300 college bass teams currently competing all across the country, including a team from Plattsburgh State University.

Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.

Bass are the perfect species for introducing novice anglers to the sport. They are easy to catch and provide beginners with an entertaining, and acrobatic battle .” Young anglers show off a few healthy bass that were later released to fight another day.

Section VII athletes take on state’s best in track and field states ALBANY Ñ Kallie Villemaire, Justin Liechty and Shawn Silliman turned in top-three fi nishes as Section VII athletes represented at the New York State Track and Field Championships at SUNY Albany June 12-13.

Beekmantown’s Villemaire fi nished second and third in the Division II 200 and 400 meter dashes, respectively, earning her appearances in Federation races for both.

There she took sixth in the 200 and eighth in the 400.

Silliman took fi fth place in the 110 meter hurdles and followed it up with a second in the 400, though neither time was quick enough to carry the Ticonderoga runner over into competition against Division I. Liechty took third place in the 400 meter dash and fourth in the 200, while also helping Saranac to a sixthplace fi nish in the 4x100 relay with Caiden Goodman, Hunter Church and Austin Myers.

Other strong performances by area athletes include Northeastern Clinton’s Jessica Cartier, who took fi fth place in the 400 meter hurdles, as well as EKMW’s Jon Gay, who broke under the 4:20 mark in the mile to fi nish in eighth in Division II and 15th overall.

Also breaking into the top-10 was the Chiefs’ Goodman, ninth individually in the 100 and in the 4x400 relay with Myers, Liechty and Colby Churchill. Kirsten Villemaire took eighth in Division II in the 1,500 and eighth in the 4x100 relay with Kallie, Elisabeth Plympton and Carlee Casey.
