MOOERS — No one was hurt as a fi re tore through one of the anchors of downtown Mooers Monday, Nov. 10, leaving it a pile of smoldering rubble.

Shortly before 7 a.m. Chazy Trooper Chris Gonyo was driving by the three story brick apartment building at the corner of Route 11 and 22 when smoke could be seen coming out of the chimney. Local resident Mike Deneault, who was at the scene shortly after, says that Gonyo ran into the building to help get residents out.

“Trooper Gonyo ran in there and let people know about the fi re,” said Deneault. “It wasn’t too full of smoke yet, but it was coming out the chimney, and it just didn’t look right.”

State Police in Plattsburgh confi rmed that Gonyo had made the initial call to 911 about the blaze, but couldn’t confi rm that he had gone into the burning building.

Troopers did say that the initial assessment was that a malfunctioning furnace was the cause of the fi re.

LaValley concert to benefit Hospice of the North Country Benefit concert to help “give back” to organization

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — On Dec. 7, local artists lead by singer-songwriter Taylor-Renae LaValley will be holding a benefit concert for Hospice of the North Country, at Olive Ridley’s in Plattsburgh.

For LaValley, helping out Hospice is very personal. When she was only four, her father succumbed to prostate cancer shortly before Christmas. Hospice was on hand, and even at that young age, she could appreciate all that they did to help out her family. The help, she said, went well above just keeping her father comfortable.

“It was Christmas time, and they went out and got us Christmas presents, out of their own pocket,” she remembers.

LaValley said that the Hospice workers who helped her family bought those presents out of their own pockets.

“Hospice is just one of those groups who is willing to do anything to make things better for you.”

Now LaValley is giving back. Together with local musicians Jay Lasage and Giovanina Bucci, LaValley will be performing her own songs as well as Christmas favorites and carols at Olive Ridley’s, with all money raised going to Hospice.

There will also be a bake sale with items donated by local stores and bakeries.

I’ve just had a lot of great things happen to me, and it’s nice to give back, and give Hospice the recognition they need,” she said.

The concert will run from 4 – 9 p.m. Anyone interested in learning more about the benefit, or making a donation can visit Hospice Of The North Country Concert Benefit on Facebook.

For her part, LaValley’s music career is picking up steam by the day. She will be traveling to Nashville soon to meet with a record company and discuss recording her music. She continues to perform locally.

Kyle’s Variety Store expanding business to include auctions shawn@denpubs.com

MOOERS — Kyle’s Variety Store in Mooers is bursting at the seams, and they are taking on a new venture; auctions, to help move their merchandise.

Co-owners Kyle and Mike Deneault, along with Mike’s wife Lynn, have been running the

Deneault hopes that once word spreads, people will bring them estate items, or even single pieces, to auction off. Their first auction was held this past Thursday, with over 100 people were in attendance. Household items, toys, nick-knacks, tools and antiques make up most of the auction fare.

“You never know what they’re going to bring in. Some things are really good, sometimes peo-

ple are just trying to get rid of their trash,” said Kyle Deneault. “We don’t take the junk, just the good stuff.”

They are also planning on branching into package mailing services, hoping especially to attract Canadian customers.

The next auction in planned for November 20. Kyle’s can be reached for inquiries at 2365040.

store, located behind the Mountain Mart Sunoco in the hamlet of Mooers for about three years, and they decided recently that it was time to expand. With a mix of dealer merchandise and consignments, the auction business will add to their already varied repertoire of goods.

“I’d always liked to do this. I’d go to auctions and come back with stuff, that’s how the business got started,” said Mike Deneault.

Auctions will be held bi-weekly, at 6:30 p.m., at the auction space adjoining their retail setting. Rows of theater seats that Deneault bought at an auction fill the space, looking out to where the auctioneer will be doing his work.

What’s next for Greens? Party weighs in on what’s to come Although they fell short of winning office in last week’s state and federal elections, Green Party officials say the best is yet to come.

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS — While NY21 will revert back to red hands after Elise Stefanik’s commanding 21-point victory to replace outgoing Congressman Bill Owens last week, and the governorship retained by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, state Green Party officials see strong inroads for 2016 and beyond.

Matt Funiciello garnered 11 percent of ballots cast — 18,404 — and nearly bested Democratic challenger Aaron Woolf in Warren County with 24 percent, losing to the Elizabethtown-based filmmaker by only 200 votes.

District wide, the baker hovered near 10 percent in nearly all 12 counties. Only in Herkimer, Hamilton and Fulton counties did his fiery brand of populism fail to ignite.

The candidate, whose appeal to break from a two-party duopoly drew support from across the political spectrum, was included in all three televised debates and won endorsements from two of the district’s four daily newspapers.

“What happened last night showed us that a significant portion of the district is no longer interested in corporate candidates from the Democratic or Republican parties,” he said following last week’s loss.

At the state level, gubernatorial candidate Howie Hawkins came in third with 4.9 percent of the vote. Gov. Cuomo won reelection with 54 percent, while GOP challenger Rob Astorino locked in 40.5 percent.

The Syracuse-based postal worker’s 173,606 votes far surpassed the 50,000 threshold required to retain ballot access for

the next four years.

Party officials are elated at the outsized impact they had on both races.

With just 22,307 active registered members statewide — they’re dwarfed by the Democrats with a 237-to-1 registration ratio — they made a big splash in public discussion and moved the needle into the realm of clear-eyed credibility, a far cry from the days when their party was haunted by allegations of spoilerism and fringe candidates.

“SPIRIT AND MOTIVATION” New York State Green Party co-chair Michael O’Neil said Team Green now needs to seize upon the wellspring of interest and develop deep connections with the supporters who invested their time and resources in the campaigns, even through simple acts like hosting house parties or requesting lawn signs.

He said Democrats and Republicans have historically tweaked people to get their vote before vanishing.

Not so with the Greens.

“We need to buck the usual trend of disappearing after elections,” he said. “We have the tools to do that — spirit and motivation.”

This post-election organization-building process, he said, is the most exciting part of the campaign.

“We’re working to build our reach and for people to be active with us on a continued basis.”

“It’s really important even though everyone’s catching their breath very quickly, we’re just starting to have conversations with our members and allies to really figure out what are the next steps,” said co-chair Gloria Mattera.

Funiciello called it a “post-vida” moment said enrollment is the top priority: “Without a highly visible race, it’s difficult,” he said. “This was the race required to do that.”

He anticipates that with the right elbow grease, many voters can be kept in the Green corner during the next election cycle.

“The question remains, ‘Can we pull enough from those parties?’ We can, but it will just take work that none of us have done before.”

Part of the process will be to scout out potential candidates for future campaigns, said O’Neil.

“We’re IDing people who are the next generation of leaders,” he said, extending an open invitation to their expanding coalition.

O’Neil said their positions — anti-fracking, single-payer healthcare, $15 minimum wage — surpass those offered by the Democratic Party, whose relationship to working class voters, he said, now resembles an abusive relationship.

Citing the HarperÕ s cover story by activist Doug Henwood that galvanized the left in September, O’Neil said the party has moved so far to the right, their positions now resemble what were considered mainstream Republican in the 1970s.

“They dangle social issues in front of their base to keep them close,” he said. “People who have not yet come to access true progressive independent politics go to other major parties because they don’t know what the other options are.”

O’Neil cited the influx of outside money pouring in during this election cycle, at least $5.5 million in NY21 and gobs more throughout the state, as an existential threat to American politics.

“We need to raise our resources and put checks on the hijacking of the Democratic process.”

GRASSROOTS The Green Party organizes themselves in affiliated county organizations and what they refer to as “locals.”

About a half-dozen affiliated county organizations are dotted throughout the state, including the Upper Hudson chapter that encompasses Albany, Schenectady, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Warren and Washington counties.

The latter may split as result of the enrollment surge generated by the recent campaigns.

Vote third party

D

emocrats received a shellacking last week in a wave election that saw Republicans rack up their highest numbers in the House of Representatives since the 1920s. They took over the Senate, a fi rst since 2006, and seized a record number of state legislatures and governor’s mansions.

It’s morning again in America and the sun is blood-red.

We’ll spare you the tripe about healing and working together for a better tomorrow.

But we will pose a thought experiment.

After you fi nish reading this column, tear it out and fi le it away.

Pull it out 16 months from now when the political machine is back in full swing.

We’re guessing you won’t be any better off than you are today.

Voters reduced Democrats to smoldering rubble last week not because of an ideological kinship with Republicans, who presented no uniform economic plan of their own, but rather out of disgust with government dysfunction and executive incompetence.

Thirty-four percent of voters, to cite an ABC News exit poll, said they were voting in opposition of President Obama, while 61 percent expressed dissatisfaction with Republican congressional leaders.

With the GOP set to control both legislative chambers, and with a president who has agreed to work with them to fi nd common ground, Republicans have now been handed the keys to the economy.

They say they will use this political capital to pass the legislation stalled by partisan gridlock.

This includes resurrecting the Keystone pipeline, dusting off a series of moribund jobs bills and repealing some of the most unsavory elements of the Affordable Care Act, like the tax on medical device manufacturers.

Republicans have also said they will work to reform the corporate tax code to make the country more competitive for business; they say they will kill tax inversions (the relocation of businesses to different countries) and roll back energy regulations, namely when it comes to regulating carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fi red power plants.

All of this, they claim, will push the econo-

my in the right direction.

But none of the above will be enough to stimulate wage growth and tackle the top issue hindering economic recovery for the people reading this newspaper: Stagfl ation.

Infl ation-adjusted incomes for the middle class have not gone up since 1999, while infl ation has increased 25 percent during the same period.

Income gains have overwhelmingly gone to the richest Americans, not regular folks.

What’s the antidote?

While the formula is tricky, recovery will only come, in part, once more cash is injected into working class wallets through measures like raising the minimum wage and signifi cantly increasing federal spending on infrastructure projects.

In his victory speech, presumptive Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell promised things will be different.

“Just because we have a two-party system doesn’t mean we have to be in perpetual confl ict,” he said.

We disagree. This system is the root of all confl ict.

Democrats will likely try to block most GOP economic initiatives to deny them victories ahead of 2016, just like what the Republicans, fueled by obstructionist Tea Party rhetoric, have been doing for the past six years.

The American political system is rigged; this election was a farce and middle class voters are the pawns.

America’s two-party system has mutated to a perverted game of political hardball.

Both count on voters growing frustrated every election cycle and switching back and forth out of a sense of helpless frustration — or, better yet, not voting at all, the fi rst step in a lifetime of political apathy that benefi ts both parties.

Last week saw the lowest turnout in any election since 1940.

Only 36.6 percent of eligible voters turned out. In New York, that number dropped to 29.5 percent (but rose to 46 percent in NY21).

It seems like the $4 billion spent in this election cycle had its intended result, like those high-frequency blasts used to clear protesters at riots.

Letters to the Editor

Common sense party To the Editor: Jeff MacMakin from Putnam was stating flat fact about our “Democracy was taken over unlawfully on a Christmas Eve” but not in 1923 — it was in 1913. [Readers] should join me in creating a Common Sense Party … nationwide.

In 1913, Congress, without a proper quorum, passed the illegal, unconstitutional Federal Reserve Act. Congressmen were bribed, blackmailed and coerced to vote for this unconstitutional, blatantly-illegal perversion on Christmas Eve without even a required quorum.

This means that the Federal Reserve Act was never legitimately passed in 1913. There already is one Common Sense Party in Clinton County where if anyone ran on the party, it would be listed on the ballot, provide candidates the required number of signatures from votes they have been to see and help his cause to change, finally and forever, plutocracy-run government and economy.

I also invite Dan Alexander, the Denton staff, and its readers to help shape the party’s principles.

My first one is no document, image, record or other form of information about what the government acquires should be “classified” in any manner that remains hidden from public view more than 10 years for National Security. Embarrassment about an “op” is not cause for classifying something per “National Security” it is because of the so many secrets that we are in the mess we are in nationally and worldwide.

I know web links are difficult in letters, but this link is worth following and it is short... but exact letters in caps or small or important: ow.ly/DuXOz. Robert H. Williams, Mooers

Be a leader in your community To the Editor: One of the qualities of leadership is having a sense of purpose that directs a person to use his or her strengths to help others. If you are interested in becoming a leader in your community, consider supporting the United Way at the Leadership level. Leadership Giving affords you the opportunity to be part of something

much greater than any of us can achieve alone. Last year, leadership giving amounted to almost 23 percent of the funds raised.

Leadership giving brings with it the great satisfaction of helping those who are struggling in our community. It is also your chance to be part of the solution, to connect and be recognized with others who share your commitment to doing more.

Leadership can be done through a one-time donation or payroll deduction. Your gift of $500 or more, given directly to United Way of the Adirondack Region, will make a significant impact in your community. Leadership giving is possible for as little as $10 per week. You can also reach a leadership level by combining gifts with a partner or spouse at another workplace. Donations can also be made anonymously.

Your donation supports 41 essential programs in your community, such as Hospice of the North Country and Life Flight.

Last year, over 80,000 lives were touched by programs supported by the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. The money raised here, stays here. To support programs and services in your area, call the United Way today at 563-0028 and ask how you can become a Leadership Giver.

Kitten hidden inside truck engine compartment adopted Cat rescued and given a home at Knight Automotive

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A young cat is down to eight lives, after a harrowing trip in the engine compartment of a GMC truck.

Rob Howard, a mechanic at Knight Automotive in Plattsburgh, says that on September 29 he received a call from a customer, who said that she had found a kitten hiding in the engine compartment of her GMC Sierra. She and several neighbors tried to get the kitten out with a garden hose, but the young feline hunkered down under the vehicle’s air filter.

“Because he was feral, I know he was looking for a warm place to go,” said Howard.

Howard asked if she could bring the vehicle in and he would try to get the cat out. Not long after, she came pulling in, and Howard met her in the parking lot.

“I could just see him under the air filter. I took it off, and he jumped down on to the frame. I got close to him, and he ran down the side of the frame and then jumped up onto the transmission,” he said.

Here’s “Sierra,” the lucky cat that went from engine compartment to dealership home.

Howard crawled under the truck, and eventually was able to get the cat to leave the hot transmission and run across the parking lot. He and the vehicle owner chased it, eventually cornering the scared kitten behind a bush in front of the dealership. They caught him and wrapped him in a shirt, and brought him inside

the dealership.

Knight automotive is very animal-friendly, and owner Rich Knight adopted the kitten on the spot, naming him Sierra after the make of the truck he was hiding in. Knight brought Sierra to a local vet and had him checked out, and treated for worms and ear mites.

“This one, he just reminds us of a cat we had years ago. He’s just tremendous, so we decided to keep him,” said Knight.

“All he does is purr now. He’s really a good cat.”

Knight keeps Sierra mostly in his spacious office, complete with a climbing tower and cat bed, bringing him out periodically to get acclimated with the busy showroom. Numerous customers have asked to adopt Sierra, but he’s not going anywhere. The woman who initially found him stops to visit, and brings in toys for Sierra.

“Regal (one of the other two cats at the dealership) gives him baths,” said Knight. “He’s got a great personality and hopefully he’ll be here for years to come.”

Sierra still has an affinity for GMC motors. One day he jumped off the desk of one of Knight’s salesmen, and ran into the engine compartment of a truck on the showroom floor. He didn’t fight as hard to stay in that time.

Sierra has definitely hit the stray-cat lottery.

CVES children unearth time capsule to look back in the past Champlain Valley Educational Services takes students outside to look back in time

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com MINEVILLE — As the first flurries of winter gathered above, students at Champlain Valley Educational Services in Mineville gathered in the lobby, faces pressed against the glass.

Elementary Special Education Teacher Anthony Biasini led them outside, gave them shovels and asked them to dig.

Legend had it that a time capsule was buried several feet below the surface.

None could nail down an exact date. Maybe ten years, perhaps even 20.

But it was there, said Biasini. A custodian tipped him off.

“It just kind of mushroomed from there,” he said.

The group peered at the strip of grass between the building at the cul-de-sac.

“It’s a good thing we’re doing this before the ground freezes,” said a boy.

Behind him, a crack team of excavators waited.

Yellow handles blurred, dirt started flying.

“Get close to the wall,” said Biasini. “Right up there by the building.”

“Pass the shovels!” they hollered.

“I hit something!” yelled a student.

And there it was, a dull flash of white in the dark rich soil.

The kids fished it out, a meter-long PVC pipe.

They handed it to an aide, who produced a replacement capsule stuffed full of modern-day artifacts, like lunch menus, photos and copies of this week’s Times of Ti. Back in the lunchroom, the kids gathered around Biasini, a 23-

year veteran, as he attempted to open the tube.

“Go get some grip gloves,” observed one.

“How about a pair of pliers,” said another. “Lefty-loosey righty-tighty.”

Biasini twisted the top. A man later produced a wrench and then… pop!

A hush fell over the room.

He reached in and produced the first item, a bright white Tshirt emblazoned with colorful handprints and student names.

The date? 1997.

“You can still smell the paint!” marveled one.

Other items followed as the students jostled for their turn to pull ziploc bags from the slender tube — class rosters, photos of faculty and staff with retro attire and antiquated hairstyles.

“That’s Mr. Rondake!” said a teacher.

Students appeared to be baffled over a cassette tape.

“You can watch movies on it!” said a boy.

He appeared flummoxed when told it was a device used to listen to music.

“Why?” he asked.

“Because that’s all we had back then!” said a teacher.

The capsule was originally supposed to be opened in 2022, according to notes contained within.

“As we prepare for our imminent journeys, we will have made our future endeavors a reality,” said a laminated poster. “We will always remember and never forget the good times, the bad times, and the friendships that have developed throughout the years.”

Biasini said the items would be cataloged and stored in a display case. Doing so, he said, would instill a sense of place and history with the students.

And then they disappeared, back to the classrooms.

Top: Anthony Biasini and a student haul the capsule out of the ground.

Bottom: Students look on as the contents come out.

Editorial

From page 4 But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Your vote should be constructive rather than punitive.

Considering the first half of this decade has seen activists fighting for democracy across the world — in Hong Kong, student protesters have been grinding it out for the past seven weeks, while people in Ukraine in the Middle East have been subjected to unspeakable atrocities — America, quite frankly, should be ashamed of herself.

We all bear responsibility. After all, most of us aren’t activists and have to work for a living, leaving little time for political analysis.

But when this circus roars back to life in the next year-or-so — or earlier, considering how America is now engaged in a permanent campaign — ask yourself a simple question: “Am I better off?”

If not, then the choice is simple: Vote for a third party candidate.

You’ve got nothing to lose — or at very least, nothing to gain from the continuation of the status quo.

According to Gallup, 58 percent of Americans say a third po-

North Countryman - 7 litical party is needed because Republicans and Democrats “do such a poor job” of representing the American people.

None of this is to say that Democrat and Republican policies are uniformly harmful — both have some bright spots — but rather they’re just caught in a poisonous quicksand in a duopoly that can no longer be trusted with governance.

The next legislative sessions will bring no quick fixes, no fresh new ideas. Nothing will change.

What did we learn from this?

It’s time to break the cycle. Ñ D enton Publications Editorial Board

Mooers fire

Elmore SPCA

From page 1

by Priscilla Menard, were all that were left standing later in the day Monday as the entire inside of the building had collapsed onto itself.

Firefighters kept Route 22 closed for much of the day while waiting to have the rest of the building demolished. Firefighters on a Rouses Point Fire Department ladder truck were seen carefully checking through the debris for possible hot-spots.

November 15, 2014

Mooers firefighters stood by across the road with a pumper truck in case they were needed.

Numerous bystanders could be seen gazing at the remains of the building as they walked by, some taking pictures with cell phones.

Investigation into the cause of the blaze will likely take several days.

Rebecca Burdo •643-2451; info@elmorespca.org Here is Sash, an adoptable dog from Elmore SPCA...

Sash (short for Sasha) German Shepherd/Sheltie mix Arrived Nov. 1, 2014 Tan and white, eight years old, 48 pounds, female Sasha is a great dog that was regretfully s u r r e n d e r e d by her owners because their baby was allergic to her. Sash, short for Sasha, is great around kids. She is very active and likes to be with her people. Sash gets along with some dogs, but not all dogs. Sasha seems to be okay around cats. She will definitely bark when someone comes to the door. Sasha asks for the door and likes to please her people. Sash would love to find a home where she would get plenty of exercise and lots of love. She pulls a bit on the leash at first, but she stops after a bit. She misses her family and would love to belong to a new family soon. Come in and meet this

Always Do Your Best

Michele Armani and Sally Meisenheimer “Always Do Your Best” was the focus of conversation in the last of The Four Agreements Series held at the Champlain Wine Company.

Most people learn easily from a relatable story, where things have gone either terribly wrong, tremendously right, or a simple truth was revealed. We shared some classic parables of The Cracked Pot and The Sword Master to demonstrate the beauty of flaws and the passion of being single minded. Telling or passing on a story evokes emotion and discussion, which ultimately satisfies what we are all seeking; deeper meaning in life. When we realize that real heroes and heroines have experienced more defeat than success and have flaws and weaknesses, doing our personal best doesn’t seem as daunting.

In sharing this discussion with you, our ‘Burgh Readers, we pose the question: Does it need to be someone else’s story that we learn from or can we be introspective enough to learn from our own “story”? We believe we can learn from our own story when we approach experiences with honesty, clarity of purpose, and forgiveness, when necessary. Our “story” can become the foundation for living our best when we celebrate our successes and

www.northcountryman.com move forward with positive intention.

So what does it take to be our best, do our best? Different app r o a c h e s direct us at different junctures in our lives. Doing our best takes a lifetime of persistent seeking, evaluation, and action.

Consider some different approaches and make a simple starting plan to Always Do YOUR Best: •To do your best, you must accept yourself as you presently are and as a positive work in progress.

•Doing your best should be an exhilarating action, not the seeking of a verbal or financial reward.

•Through gentle exploration, understand that your physical and emotional energy waxes and wanes, ebbs and flows. Knowing and/or accepting our natural energy cycles helps in examining when we should strive to do our best and when we might want to be more forgiving of ourselves. Your best is always changing; sometimes it is high qual-

North Countryman - 9 ity and sometimes low.

•Knowing your vulnerabilities is just as important as knowing and using your polished talents. Vulnerabilities are what make you compassionate, “real”, approachable, and supported by others in your development.

•Focus on what you ARE rather that what you AREN’T. Be aware, but don’t dwell in a place of impossibility. Your best is much different from someone else’s best. It reflects your capabilities, time, and strengths.

•Accomplishment, ultimately, is what defines our legacy. Accomplishment can be a very personal endeavor without competition. Define your own success and feel good about it.

•Listening, discerning, and relating, either contemplatively or aloud, are easy actions that aid in finding our best path. This is the more active version of spending time and attention in order to thrive.

•Be appreciative and complimentary of others BEST accomplishments.

•Let go of past disappointments, failures, and regrets. Make amends, forgive yourself, learn from a mistake and make an honest decision to not repeat it!

•We are in this life for the long haul; use moderation, patience and kindness. Try to avoid self judgment, self abuse/punishment, guilt, blame and regret.

Recently, we were humorously reminded of the high school cheer; “Good, better, best….never let it rest, ‘til your good is better and your better is best”. We wish you well on your journey of seeking your own “personal best”.

Gibson Brothers From page 1

Eric said. “We didn’t envision making a living at it, but it evolved to that point.”

Before they formed a band, the brothers started playing music together in the early ‘80s, playing at fi ddle contests and fi eld days. They gradually started playing music and became serious about it while attending SUNY Plattsburgh.

“The Gibson Brothers have a special relationship to SUNY Plattsburgh,” said Stephen Light, associate vice president for Academic Affairs at SUNY Plattsburgh. “They’re kind of our favorite sons, and they’re very successful alums of SUNY Plattsburgh.”

The band recorded their fi rst album in 1994 and signed a contract with Hay Holler Records a year later.

Since then, the group has won numerous, prestigious awards such as Song of the Year in 2013, Album of the Year in 2011 and 2012 and Entertainer of the Year in 2012 and 2013. This year, the band signed with Rounder Records and are putting on many concerts including this concert, which is sponsored by Bluegrass for the Next Generation (BGNG).

56551

‘BLUEGRASS PROJECT’ BGNG started in 2011 intended to promote bluegrass music, education and awareness at SUNY Plattsburgh and in the North Country, and it was launched during the summer of that year with a generous donation from an anonymous donor.

“This is a person who had retired and really likes bluegrass, especially the Gibson Brothers,” Light said. “So, he wanted to donate money to the college to promote bluegrass awareness and playing among college students.”

The fi rst phrase of the project began Feb. 21 when SUNY Plattsburgh’s WARP radio station started broadcasting an hour of bluegrass three times a week, and the program runs from noon to 1 p.m. every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday throughout the semester.

The second phase of the project took place March 23 when the Gibson Brothers performed for a benefi t concert, and all funds raised by the show went to the project to help fi nance future scholarships, concerts, courses and visiting artists.

“I think our affi liation is evolving, [but] we are so busy on the road that we haven’t been as involved as we had hoped,” Eric said. “I hope to have more presence.”

3 p.m. The Library is inviting the community the opportunity to see her past work and to attend this retrospective show and sale. The open hours are Monday 10 a.m. to noon, 1 to 7 p.m.

Tuesday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday 10 a.m. to noon, 1 to 5 p.m. Thursday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Friday 10 a.m. to noon, 1 to 5 p.m. The show will be available during library hours through the end of January 2015. Call 834-9054 for more information.

Patricia McCarty and Cary Lewis set to perform

SARANAC — Violist Patricia McCarty will perform in a duo concert with pianist Cary Lewis Sunday, Nov. 16, at 3 p.m. at the historic United Methodist Church on Rte. 3. The program will offer several works considered not only essentials in the viola repertoire, but ageless masterpieces composed by the greatest geniuses in classical music literature: Sonata No. 3 in G Minor, BWV 1029 of J.S. Bach (1685-1750); Romance in F Major, Op. 50 of Beethoven (1770-

The third phrase of the project was to give instruments to several local school districts that summer, and the goal was to foster the learning and performing of bluegrass music.

“It has a great rhythm,” Light said. “Bluegrass music in general, when it’s done well, is just a wonderful form of music.”

‘EXPERIENCE BLUEGRASS’ SUNY Plattsburgh offers plenty of ways to get involved with bluegrass music including accessibility to bluegrass instruments from the music department, bluegrass lessons, a Bluegrass Club, CDs from Feinberg Library’s extensive bluegrass collection and more.

For spring 2015, SUNY Plattsburgh is offering a class called Introduction to Bluegrass Music taught by Timothy Hartnett Monday nights from 4 to 6:45 p.m. The class will focus on the history, instruments, performers, preeminent bands, musical structure

1827), and Sonata in E-fl at Major, Op. 120, No. 2 of Brahms (1833-1897).

Doors open at 2:30 p.m. Seating is open with a suggested donation of $15 for general admission, and $12 for students and seniors. Children 12 and under are free. For further information call 293-7613 or email hillholl@hughes.net.

Chazy boys shut out Lisbon 3-0 in state quarterfinals win Eagles move on to state semifinals Nov. 15 with a shot at the Class D championship

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com POTSDAM — Rob McAuliffe and his team will get another shot at a NYSPHSAA Class D soccer three-peat.

The Chazy Eagles punched their ticket to the NYSPHSAA Class D Final Four with a 3-0 win over Section X’s Lisbon Nov. 7.

Chazy controlled much of the game, but was unable to score early against a solid Lisbon defense.

Just after missing a shot attempt off the head in the 18th minute, Josh Barriere was able to find a second chance off an aerial pass from Gage Ducatte, putting the ball into the net for a 1-0 lead and the only goal in the first 40 minutes of play. The Eagles held an 8-2 shot advantage, putting four on frame, with one save for Chazy keeper Austin Gravelle and three for Lisbon goalie Nick Spooner. ”They had a good game plan against us,” Chazy head coach Rob McAuliffe said. “If Josh

had not scored that first goal it might have been a different game.”

The Eagles picked up the offensive pressure in the second half, but Spooner was up to the challenge until the 58th minute, when a ball played deep into the Lisbon box was mishan-

dled by a defender to give Chazy a 2-0 lead on an own goal.

In the 63rd minute, Barriere found the net for the second time, going low to the left post off a second assist from Ducatte for a 3-0 Eagle lead. ”This was a team effort and I knew we could

do it,” Barriere said. “We work well in the flow of play, we know who’s open and when to call for the ball.”

The Eagles return to Middletown having not allowed a goal in the playoff rounds. ”I know we have a solid defense and a great goalie behind us,” senior defender Keagan O’Connor said. “I always know what the keeper wants me to do and if my wing backs are open.”

“We knew they had good forwards and we would have to bring our A game on defense today,” Barriere said. ”When you get to the state playoffs, you cannot give up any goals,” McAuliffe said. “The chances to score against the competition you face are going to be very few.”

The duo of Barriere and Zach Brothers continued to keep midfield shape for the Eagles, allowing the team to play their style of possession soccer. ”We have been together for a long time and have a good bond,” Brothers said. ”Jost and Zach are so important for us to control the game and generate chances,” McAuliffe said.

Spooner played a solid game in net for Lisbon, keeping the ball out of the net on several prime opportunities to keep his team within range for as long as possible. He finished with 12 saves.

Bulldogs sneak by Lady Eagles in overtime 2-1 to advance Chazy girls fall just short of trip to semis with quarterfinal loss to Chateaugay

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com POTSDAM — In a game that saw few opportunities on frame, the Chateaugay Lady Bulldogs were able to find the difference maker in the first 10 minute overtime for a 2-1 win against Chazy Nov. 7 to advance to the Class D final four.

The Lady Eagles opened the scoring in the 14th minute when Bailey Pepper found the foot of Lindsey Gilmore, who put a shot

over the head of the Chateaugay keeper Holly Zeldenhurst for a 1-0 lead.

The Bulldogs responded 10 minutes later, when Danielle Cook scored on a Rachael Young assist.

Chateaugay held a 7-2 advantage in shots in the first half and had the only shot in the second half, which was not on frame.

Gwen LaPier had four saves in regulation, while Zeldenhurst recorded one.

In the third minute of the first overtime, (83rd overall), Katie Beach took a through pass from Brianna Cook and put the ball to the wide side of LaPier to give the Bulldogs a 2-1 lead.

Chazy got their first shot on goal since the first half in the 85th minute, which was easily saved by Zeldenhurst. The Eagles were able to put pressure on the Chateaugay defense in the final five

minutes of play but were unable to find the equalizer. ”Chateaugay always gives us a run for our money and I am proud of my team,” Chazy head coach Karin Sherman said. “I do not know if it was nerves or anticipation of where we could go, but we were a little off tonight. We were giving the ball up when we should have kept it.”

Trombley said her core of seniors, which includes Rachel Pombrio, Kateyn Therrian, Kayleigh Bell, Airiana Hagen, Hannah Laurin, Kinnan Latremore, Olivia Blais, Maura Tormbley, Skyler Thomas, Abbey Snide and Paige Barcomb, have had a successful career. ”They have a ton of heart,” she said. “They were part of a progam that had two state titles in three years. My high school has not been back in 26 years.”

Beekmantown boys advance to semis, girls fall game short Beekmantown to face third-ranked Livonia in state semifinals

Beekmantown finishes season with an 18-1 mark and a Section VII Class B championship

By Barrie Finnegan

denpubs@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The whole outcome of the game was decided on one big play by the Beekmantown Eagles.

On a free kick by Calem Sullivan, an Ichabod Crane defender headed the ball away from the net, but Kaden Baugh directed that ball to Noah Osborne, who ripped a shot towards goalie Peter Volkmann.

Volkmann made a diving save on Osborne’s shot but failed to keep possession. The rebound went out to Ryan Waterbury who would not let the golden opportunity slip away. Waterbury sent the shot inside the left post for the goahead and eventual game-winning goal.

The Eagles travel to Middletown next week to take on Livonia from Section V in the NYSPHSAA Class B Final Four. Livonia is located south of Rochester in the Geneseo area.

Livonia beat East Aurora 2-1 to gain their birth in the semifinals.

The other final four matchup is Skaneateles against Mattituck.

The Eagles came out fast, dictating the pace and controlling the ball in the mid-field and keeping most of the action in their offensive zone. Beekmantown head coach Ryan Loucy said he was excited to see them come out aggressive, just like they had all year long.

“Our kids were just ready,“ said Loucy.

“They came out with energy.”

With the location being nearly a home game, Loucy felt his team was ready while Ichabod Crane needed some time to shake off the bus ride.

Ichabod Crane goalie Peter Volkmann was tested quickly and often throughout the game on his way to 14 saves. He stopped everything except the game winner that he didn’t stand much of a chance on.

On the other end, his counterpart Colden Mrak had a relatively quiet afternoon. Mrak

was only called upon once to make a save. The shutout was testimony to a solid defense spearheaded by Kaden Baugh. Baugh was also seen coming up occasionally to get involved in the offense, as was apparent on the scoring play.

Coach Loucy was very proud of his team leaders. ”Price was all over the place as well as Proper, Baugh and Waterbury,” Loucy said. “Ryan Waterbury usually plays the traditional forward where he receives the ball and we come up to support him, but tonight he was all over the place.”

The coach was also impressed by how the whole team played a disciplined game and played within the system. When asked what the plan was for Middletown, he smiled.

“Have fun,” he said.

Westhill finished with a 22-9 advantage in shots on goal, but the Eagles weren’t without their chances.

Kallie Villemaire wove through the Warriors’ defense for a strong shot on goal late in the first half and Kirsten Villemaire’s long direct kick from near midfield in the second bounced past Westhill’s defense only to end up in the hands of their goalie.

The Eagles got close to getting on the board again with a well-placed corner kick with seven minutes remaining but couldn’t get it in the back of the net.

Then, with 4:08 left, Jayanna Monds picked up her second score of the game off a corner for the final tally of the game.

“They’ve grown so close to each other all year,” said Bursik. “They’re just a great group. I wish that just once we could get to the final four, but maybe we’ll have an opportunity again next year.”

The game was the last for Beekmantown seniors Bethany Simpson, Kallie Villemaire, Santana Vicencio-Labarre and Carlee Casey, who Bursik said the team rallied around after her seasonending torn ACL. “I’m going to miss them,” added Bursik.

PLATTSBURGH — The Beekmantown Eagles were given a tough draw in facing the state’s top-ranked Class B team in the state quarterfinals Nov. 8.

Beekmantown played Westhill tight through most of the first half, but an apparent leg injury to starting goalkeeper Maggie Chauvin and two late goals by the Warriors put the Eagles in a hole too deep to overcome.

The Eagles lost 3-0, finishing the year just shy of the state semifinals and capping off a perfect Section VII season and 1-1 mark in the playoffs.

“This year was special,” said Beekmantown coach Pete Bursik after the loss. “I couldn’t be more proud of these girls.”

The Warriors gained an early shot advantage in the first half but the Eagles held them out of the goal until Jayanna Monds took a fast break pass from Tatiana Monds and buried it for the 1-0 lead.

Four minutes later, Erin McMullen floated a long direct kick from near the corner into the far side of the Beekmantown net and over Kelsey Baker to go up two.

Chauvin, who suffered an apparent leg injury chasing down a loose ball after stopping a hard Westhill shot, remained on the sidelines to support her team.

Despite losing his starting goalie, Bursik said the direct kick goal would have been nearly impossible for either Kallie Villemaire works against Westhill’s Tatiana Monds in Beekmantown’s Chauvin or Baker to get a quarterfinal loss Nov. 8. hand on.

North Countryman - 13

His Indian name was Tenderfoot

A An interesting week in the Adirondacks I

t has been an interesting week in the Adirondacks, and fortunately, I spent a fair portion of it in camp.

While a blanket of fresh snow currently caps the upper elevations of the High Peaks region, a majority of the region’s big game hunters have yet to enjoy a decent tracking snow.

However, the lack of snow ranks as just a minor blip on the radar screen when compared to a few of the more recent woodland threats.

Once again, there has been another outbreak of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in the east as the disease recently reared it’s ugly head in Ohio.

Fortunately, NYSDEC reacted quickly to announce new regulations that prohibit importing into New York certain parts of white-tailed deer, elk or moose that were taken in the state of Ohio.

It was an outbreak of CWD a few years ago that prompted DEC to put a permanent end to the long held tradition of feeding deer herds during the winter months in the Adirondacks.

Although the feeding ban has been in effect for over a half dozen years, it continues to stir up controversy and occasional bad blood.

CWD is a highly contagious and deadly disease that affects the brain and central nervous system. CWD is almost always fatal to deer; there are no vaccines or treatment for the disease.

New York State has a tremendous white-tailed deer herd and a small, but expanding, moose population.

Preventing the introduction of CWD into New York from hunter-killed carcasses is vital to protecting the health of New York’s deer and moose populations. The most effective way to protect New York’s deer and moose herds is to keep CWD infectious material out of the state, and hunters play an important role in this effort.

A times, it seems there is a new threat arriving in the region nearly every month. In the forests, there’s been the emerald ash borer, the hemlock woolly adelgid and the Asian long-horn beetles. There is also Giant Hogweed.

In the waters there is purple loosestrife, and Japanese Knotweed on the shore. Currently, invasives are directly responsible for the decline of nearly half of the threatened species in the US. Ticks, which have never traditionally posed much of a problem in the region, are now responsible for a growing epidemic of Lyme Disease in many parts of the park.

The huge rebound among New York’s geese population has been responsible for over 80 plane strikes costing millions and killed at least 24 people. The infamous “Miracle on the Hudson” plane crash was due to Canadian geese.

Often it appears the natural world, at least the one we knew as children, has become an increasingly scary and dangerous place.

Moose on the Loose

It is the time of year again, when bull moose begin wandering about the region and looking for love in all the wrong places.

North Country motorists should be extra cautious and on the lookout for moose, especially in the low light, near dusk. Car accidents are much worse with a moose than they are with a deer.

Typically, deer are struck by a vehicle’s fender, while moose, being much taller, come through the windshield.

Deer hunters should also be wary about running into moose in the woods. Last year, on the opening day of the Big Game season, a group of local deer hunters encountered a bull, a cow and a calf on their very fi rst ‘drive’ of the new year.

Over the years, I’ve stumbled across numerous moose, both on the water and on land.

My closest moose encounter actually occurred in the side yard of a house located in the middle of Lake Placid village.

I’ve also paddled along side a moose while fi shing on Fish Pond, but it wasn’t much of a contest. The moose was using four paddles, and I had only one.

The moose made its way to shore and quickly disappeared into the woods.

Report your Moose sighting

The NYSDEC recently released a press release asking for the public’s cooperation in locating moose.

If you happen to see a moose, the Department requests that you report it immediately to the DEC at 897-1291.

The DEC is seeking public assistance in an effort to learn more about New York State’s largest mammal. More information on moose can be found on the DEC web site at dec.ny.gov/animals/6964.html Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.

n old dirt road once snaked its way through the woodland between North Hudson and Keene, unrolling through the Adirondack forest like a crooked streambed.

The road was well traveled by the local citizenry — trappers, loggers, merchants and the like, but eventually vanished into the Adirondack countryside, giving way to alternate roadways that nearly doubled the trip.

But a handful of old timers could still picture it in their mind’s eye.

One of those people was my uncle Ed, who swore he could feel the difference on the sole of his weather-beaten muck boots as he crossed the area where the road once existed.

“Here it is,” he’d say, standing on what looked to me like undisturbed forest. “It’s quite easy to feel the difference,” he’d add, stepping on and off the imaginary hardpan and looking inquisitively in your direction to make sure you were paying close attention.

“The camp bottom is right over there,” he’d continue, pointing in the direction of another long defunct landmark known only to those who lived to see it.

“That’s the way back to camp,” he’d say gesturing into the dense underbelly of spruce’s and tag alders.

My uncle would often refer to that road in tales of hunts long gone by. As a young lad, he’d offer it to me as a natural boundary along one of our favorite deer drives.

“Stay to the right of the road, or it’s next stop Keene,” he’d say through one of his famous toothless grins.

Oh how that ghostly road intrigued me.

Problem was I had absolutely no idea what Ed was talking about. I could dance barefoot on the thing and not feel it beneath my toes.

Eventually, through years and years of hunting the country, I came to recognize where the old road ran — mostly through picturing Ed’s leathered hand pointing through the woods at the contour of the land there.

For years I kept that secret, not wanting Ed to know I hadn’t the woods sense to fi gure out where a hardpan road had once run.

Until one evening after a long day’s hunt and a bit too much bubbly.

“I’ve never been able to feel that freaking road with my feet,” I blurted to Ed under the dull glow of gas lanterns, interrupting a deer story he was halfway through, the focal point of which was the old road.

Ed looked dazed, as if I had popped him over his hairless head with the woodstove poker.

“You must have tender feet or something,” I said, causing a smattering of chuckles from my fellow camp goers.

“I think your Indian name should be Tenderfoot,” I added, eliciting a long laugh from Ed. Before long the rest of the crew had fessed to the fact that they, too, could not feel the road beneath their feet.

So the name stuck. Ed would forever be known in camp by his Indian name — Tenderfoot.

This cow moose was discovered sleeping under the porch of a local Lake Placid residence. It was fond of feeding in their garden and could often be found there in the middle of the day.

Jay Lapointe of Putnam and Dallas Jordan treated Mayson Lapointe to a day in the woods last weekend where he was able to see his big brother harvest this nice six-pointer in Crown Point. Congratulations Dallas!
