Local family shattered by immigration crackdown

Aggressive enforcement of immigration laws has led to the deportation of a beloved family man

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

CLINTONVILLE | Moussa Mahaman and Aisha Stanyon first bonded over their shared love of music.

Over time, their lives became increasingly entwined as they forged a homestead in the mountains.

The land in the Adirondacks is tough and unforgiving terrain that requires mutual support, love and trust to till.

They found that in each other.

Th e relationship was a fresh start for both of them.

Stanyon, 69, had left a bad marriage after 28 years.

Mahaman, a Niger national, was looking for someone to share his life with between gigs in at St. Nick’s in Greenwich Village, where he played bass into the wee hours for raucous midnight revelers.

They met through an online dating service.

For the retired Au Sable Forks Elementary music teacher, the attraction wasn’t immediate. But their friendship blossomed into love as Mahaman gradually revealed more and more of his character.

“This guy is extremely intelligent and ex-

tremely nice,” Stanyon said. “He was very unusual in his kindness and respect, which I had never experienced before.”

Stanyon began taking the Greyhound to New York City on the weekends to watch him perform.

Lora Kluwe noted a change in her friend after she met the musician.

“She’s so much happier when before she met Moussa,” said Kluwe. “She’s been happy ever since.”

They fell in love.

Mahaman was happy to have a family in his adopted homeland. He quickly became a father to Stanyon’s four adult children, as well as a grandfather.

The pair married in April 2011.

“My marriage to Moussa healed our family in so many ways,” Stanyon said. “He’s so calm, he’s so grounded.”

But their bucolic existence in Clintonville, located 23 minutes south of Plattsburgh, was shattered when Mahaman was detained by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Nov. 1 during a routine check-in at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s station in Champlain.

Three weeks later, just days before Thanksgiving, he was deported to Niger.

“I haven’t heard from him today,” said Stanyon last Wednesday. “We will try to bring him back, but it could take two or more years.”

MASS DEPORTATION FORCE

Mahaman, 54, is just one of the foreign nationals who has been ensnared in immigration policies that have been aggressively tightened and enforced under the Trump administration.

Moussa Mahaman, of Clintonville, was deported to Niger last week. Following an executive order by the Trump administration, authorities are aggressively cracking down on those who are in the country illegally.

Photo provided While authorities once looked the other way when it came to law-abiding foreign nationals who were in the country illegally, an executive

order signed by the president in February granted broad authority to arrest and deport violators.

CVPH Wound Care Center uses ‘team approach’ to patient care Local woman benefits from wound care, rehab expertise

PLATTSBURGH | Peggy Salmonsen of Plattsburgh first noticed the blister on her leg this past January.

The abscess caught her attention but was nothing that she felt too concerned about at the time, explaining that she self-treated the blister with over the counter products and Band Aids.

But then Salmonsen visited her primary care doctor, Dr. Zbigniew Woloczynski, for a regularly scheduled appointment three months later. “‘You should have had this taken care of sooner.’” Salmonsen said, of the words her doctor used when he first examined the blister, which by then had grown more severe.

“I have diabetes, so Dr. Woloczynski was a bit concerned about that,” she recalled. “But he was right; it was something I should have taken more seriously, especially as a diabetic.”

Her primary care physician referred Salmonsen to the CVPH Wound Center, where experts in wound care would be able to work with her in healing the wound as quickly as possible.

Located in the CVPH Health Plaza, the Wound Care Center provides chronic and non-healing wound care management using a team approach.

Physicians with advanced training in wound management and hyperbaric oxygen therapy and nurses trained in the care of chronic wounds develop a personalized wound treatment plan for each patient.

“They were just wonderful,” Salmonsen

Keith and Peggy Salmonsen of Plattsburgh, far right, reconnect with CVPH Wound Care Center staff members Holly Hart and Dave Curry. Hart, Curry and Josephine Hum (not pictured) were part of a team that developed and implemented a care plan for Salmonsen, who came to the Wound Care Center with a wound that would not heal and lymphedema.

said of the flurry of activity that took place at her first visit to the Wound Center. “Holly (our nurse) even invited my husband to come in (to the exam room). They started taking a family history, collecting all kinds of information, measurements, pictures.”

“Whenever we see a wound like this on the extremities (of someone who has diabetes), we immediately assume it’s a diabetic wound,” said Holly Hart, a registered nurse at the Wound Center. “Tests will invariably confirm that diagnosis and the etiology (cause) may include venous or arterial insufficiency.”

That first visit to the Wound Center was on April 20, and it marked the beginning of the healing process for what Salmonsen’s husband and care provider, Keith, said was clearly an “open wound.”

“They were a well-oiled machine,” he said in respect for the efforts put in by Hart and the wound team.

“They were very sensitive to my anxieties,” Salmonsen said. “Holly said they were going to work hard to help me get better.

They really took charge.”

“The fact that a wound doesn’t seem to want to heal adds a lot of anxiety to the situation,” said David Curry. “Finding the appropriate support is just the beginning of the healing journey.”

Tests verified that Salmonsen was also suffering with lymphedema, a collection of fluid in cells that causes swelling and is common with diabetics.

As Wound Center personnel focused on treating Salmonsen’s open wound, they also knew that the source of the problem – the lymphedema – needed attention as well.

So in May, Salmonsen was referred to Josephine Hum, senior occupational therapist of CVPH Rehabilitation Services, who treats patients with lymphedema. Salmonsen worked with Hum three to four times each week for several weeks, undergoing a

massage technique that helped channel fluid away from the swollen area. The therapy also utilized compression bandages to reduce the impact of lymphedema.

“She taught me exercises, walking, raising my legs, things I could do on my own,” Salmonsen said. “My first goal was to attend a family wedding in June.”

Salmonsen was self-conscious of the wound and the attention her treatment efforts would attract while wearing her chosen outfit for the wedding. But by the time the June celebration took place, her wound had improved to the point where she was comfortable in attending the wedding. She said that with the help of the care team she had met that first goal.

Some of the other equipment she used during her healing process, such as compression wraps, made her sometimes feel like she was in a “science-fiction movie,” but she continued to make progress. Salmonsen praised the support she received from the company that provided her with equipment she could use at home to continue her treatments.

She was finally discharged from the program on Sept. 11, the wound and related issues 100 percent healed.

“This was a pretty typical wound,” Hart said. “But it’s so important that a patient builds confidence as treatment progresses. Peggy did a wonderful job dealing with all this.”

“I was really terrified (at first),” Salmonsen said. “I really didn’t know what to expect. I really have to thank the Wound Center and everyone else who was involved, including my husband.”

“He is part of the team,” Hart added. “An important part.”

Both Hart and Curry stressed the importance for patients to come forward and speak with their health care providers whenever they notice an unusual wound or other change to their skin, especially for diabetics.

Early and proper treatment is the best way to avoid a small problem getting worse. ■

Police seek help in solving Peru cold case murder Walter Fedorwich was slain in 1997 and the case remains unsolved

Walter Fedorwich was founded bludgeoned to death in his Peru home on Sept. 15, 1997.

Photo provided

PERU | State police are enlisting the public’s help in solving the decades-old murder of a elderly construction worker.

An investigation sparked by a concerned neighbor on Sept. 15, 1997 led state police to discover Walter C. Fedorwich, 88, deceased and tied to his bed in Peru.

The autopsy revealed Fedorwich was asphyxiated and bludgeoned to death early on Sept.

12 or 13, and the death was ruled a homicide.

Fedorwich lived alone in what state police described as a “poorly maintained” residence on State Route 22 in Peru.

He was no longer able to drive, and was seen around the surrounding area in his trademark cowboy hat and boots hitchhiking or using a taxi.

Fedorwich had relatives in the Rochester area, and had traveled there in the time preceding his death, state police said.

“During that trip, he had spoken of carrying a large sum of money, and may have had a portion of that money stolen,” said state police a press release.

“It was well-known in the Peru and Platts-

Covel'sTree Farm~,N;;;;!!as

burgh area that Fedorwich would carry large sums of money on his person, had a habit of telling people about his money and would occasionally flash his bankroll.”

The sum of money was not located over the course of the investigation.

Shortly before his death, Fedorwich was observed at the end of his driveway speaking

46ers tally 13,000 hikers at Cascade Experienced hikers look to continue summer, fall stewardship at trailhead next year

“It really runs the gamut, honestly. We had everyone from experienced hikers with appropriate gear all the way to some with flip-flops and tank tops, carrying nothing.

Some hikers really didn’t know what they were in for. But our volunteers did have an alternate hikes list covering a wide range of trail options, from middle-of-the-road mountains, not High Peaks trails, to a woods’ walk, to some hikes you could do with children.”

Congestion on the Adirondack wilderness trail systems, particularly in the High Peaks Wilderness and adjacent areas that surround the Route 73 corridor here have stirred much local concern.

High traffic from both hikers and vehicle parking combined with lack of experience or preparedness has meant long hours for Department of Environmental Conservation forest rangers. Parking congestion has proved challenging with overflow straddling private driveways in Keene and both sides of narrow roadways through the mountains.

Shumway said it was hard to gauge a sense of maximum capacity on the trails themselves.

“It varies and depends on when people start, how big the groups are, and those kinds of details. But it is safe to say that Cascade has become a place you probably wouldn’t go if you were looking for solitude.”

Parking continued to be a problem on busy days, she said.

“I would say on nice days along Route 73 those parking areas were completely full with cars parked up and down the road on both sides.”

By summer’s end this year, DEC had coordinated with the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) and the Olympic Regional Development Authority to move alert and move Cascade and Pitchoff Mountain hiker parking to Mount Van Hoevenburg, where ORDA maintains large parking areas for cross-country ski trails and bobsled track venue.

By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

KEENE | Adirondack 46ers greeted and counted over ten thousand hikers at Cascade Mountain in four months last summer. Information outreach at the trailhead beside Route 73 above Cascade Lakes saw heavy climbing traffic.

In their inaugural year, the 46er’s Club Trailhead Stewards worked to get important safety and hiking etiquette instruction to as many of those people as possible.

Adirondack 46er Fran Shumway coordinated volunteer stewardship teams at the busy Cascade Mountain hub.

“We started on Saturday, June 17 and continued every Saturday, Sunday and holiday through Columbus Day,” she said.

“During that period we encountered 13,074 hikers and 648 dogs. We had 33 active volunteers. Adirondack 46ers served a total 1,142 hours at the trailhead.”

Hiking numbers they gathered pertain specifically to Cascade trails.

“At some point, we will probably break out other numbers,” Shumway said of additional data that might cull information on groups, families and details as to hiking times and weather conditions.

But 46er stewards did connect many new hikers with important facts about Leave No Trace best wilderness practices, waste etiquette, trail safety and preparedness.

Experience levels within the hiking public at Cascade varied, Shumway said.

Views from Hurricane Mountain overlooking the Porter/Cascade ridge.

The move added 3.8 miles to the round trip climb to Cascade Mountain and 4.4 miles to the Pitchoff summit.

The 46er team staffed the trailhead at Mount Van Hoevenburg.

“Our impression was that that worked very well,” Shumway said.

“Parking there is certainly not an issue.

And it also opened up use at the Van Hoevenburg trail -- it was a place that a lot of people chose to climb when they got there because Cascade became a longer hike.”

The trail up the back side of Mount Van Hoevenburg overlooks the MacIntyre Range.

Sharing information proved helpful to many hikers, and Shumway suggests that establishing entry points at hiking hubs in the Adirondacks might improve safety and preserve wilderness trails, especially if they provide public restrooms.

“It would ideally provide centralized places to educate and welcome people new to the area, new to hiking maybe.”

It’s similar to an idea proffered by Keene Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson, Jr., who spent last

summer evaluating hiker traffic and parking challenges in his town.

“I think the key things we discussed, proper clothing and safety, wilderness preparedness, Leave No Trace and how to properly dispose of human waste on the trail are an important part of the solution,” Shumway said.

“Our intent all along was to say, even if we don’t change behaviors today, we may have given someone more to think about going forward. We’re excited. We think our presence out there has made a difference.”

The 46ers club, each of whom have reached the summit of all 46 of the Adirondack Park’s highest mountains, plan to provide trailhead stewardship next year, pending formal agreement with DEC. “We are going to try to grow our ranks by looking for a few more volunteers,” Shumway said.

“We’re moving forward with the assumption that we will continue this work at the Cascade trailhead, wherever that might be.”

46ers interested in volunteering time next summer can reach Shumway via email: trailstewards@adk46er.org ■

Saranac book club going strong Saranac Book Club celebrates nearly 20 year longevity

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

SARANAC | In an age of blossoming e-book sales, technology ever-changing the way that readers consume media, one tradition — the book club — remains constant in Saranac.

Every month, 13 residents read a book and get together in the Saranac High School Library to discuss it.

The Saranac Book Club has been running strong since 1998, when Judy Ross first spearheaded the organization.

Ross was a new resident to the area, according to the club’s current facilitator, Gina Doty. The club was born from her desire to meet people in her new community.

Back then, the club was reading the likes of John Updike’s “In the Beauty of the Lilies.”

“The discussion we have after reading the book brings in everyone’s different life experiences the more we meet and get to feel comfortable to share about ourselves with the group,” said Doty. “The conversation expands your own thoughts about something and sometimes you may change how you think about something due to what the book expressed and what other members talked about with own experiences.

“The friendships we have made have been a bonus with having this club.”

The club’s book selection varies, but is always decided on collectively, Doty said.

“Some of the members read a lot so they find books that would make a great book to discuss,” she said. “We don’t choose books that are ‘fluff’ books, which to us have no complexity, though they are mindless and enjoyful to read to relax.”

The Saranac Book Club meets the second Wednesday of every month, September through June, from 7-9 p.m.

Anyone interested in joining is encouraged to contact Gina Doty at dotygl@charter.net. ■ The Saranac Book Club meets the second Wednesday of every month at Saranac High School.

New mobile crisis team will come to you Clinton County Mobile Crisis Team designed to better connect patients with services

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | A new mobile crisis team in Clinton County is ensuring residents have tailored access to mental health services.

The five-member Clinton County Mobile Crisis Team will be dispatched anywhere in Clinton County, as well as Au Sable Forks and Keeseville, to aid residents who are having a mental health or substance abuse crisis.

This also includes people considering selfharm or suicide.

“There’s no criteria,” said Crisis Coordinator Chris Arnold. “We want people to call anytime they’re not sure. Let’s have a conversation, let’s try to figure out what’s going on.”

Behavioral Health Services North (BHSN) was awarded a $500,000 grant through the Adirondack Health Institute to cover the two-year pilot program.

The team includes Arnold, who serves as a substance counselor, a licensed crisis clinician, and two certified peer specialists.

A rotating team of part-time five nurses is also available.

The goal is to allow people to stay in their natural environments during a crisis, but also help them receive an appropriate level of care, including those seeking inpatient services for substance abuse.

Residents can call and staffers will steer them to the appropriate services, including detox units, outpatient and inpatient programs.

“We go out with our intervention team and meet people where they are,” Arnold said. “People will say having a team working with them where they are is so much more

comforting and a powerful experience, especially in a crisis situation.”

When emergencies arise, people often need a mental health response — not a law enforcement or medical one.

Not all medical episodes require an emergency room visit, a measure that drives up health care costs and diverts resources.

Often, people just need someone to talk to, Arnold said.

“From Oct. 1, 2015 through Sept. 30, 2016, there was 1,619 behavioral crisis evaluations done by the (Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital) Emergency Department,” said BHSN Chief Operating Officer Peter Trout.

The following year saw 1,717.

The average cost of an ER visit across the country is $2,000, Trout said.

“So if you take those 1,717 visits, you’ve got $3.5 million for those visits,” he said.

“We can drastically reduce that. Most of those individuals don’t need that level of care. Many are simply seen and discharged to outpatient programs, so this mobile crisis team is designed to prevent them from going there in the first place.”

The unit is available for deployment Mondays through Fridays from 8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.

The hotline number is 1-866-577-3836, and is manned after hours by a crisis call center.

Prior to the team launching operations on Nov. 6, residents could call a suicide prevention line. But it was often underutilized or misused, Arnold said.

Patients would also have to come to downtown Plattsburgh for meetings — not always feasible in a crisis situation, or for those without transportation in the rural region.

Arnold said the program has been wellreceived by their community partners since its launch, and cited an early success story when a probation officer diverted a crisis to their team, saving the patient from an unnecessary law enforcement response.

After years of crisis intervention receiving scant funding, Arnold said he’s pleased the state

is finally starting to invest funds in the model.

“The state is now recognizing how valu-

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Season of joy The joys of living life to the fullest are the opportunity to renew and celebrate our traditions. Holiday prepBy Dan Alexander arations and events • PUBLISHER • serve to bring family and friends together while strengthening the bonds between them.

Thanksgiving serves as an essential kick-off to many of the traditions important in our lives. We each have those that are unique and very personal, but throughout your life, they conjure special memories and warm thoughts of bygone years.

It’s the lasting memory that builds those individual layers of the tradition that further enriches the shared memory.

Unfortunately, as time marches on, so do some of the traditions that stood firm throughout the years. Traditions change as a result of many factors. The passing of time, places and people can affect those events over the years. In some cases only then do we begin to appreciate the value of those traditions and the effort put forth by those who made them unique to you.

The most important lesson in our traditions is the ability to share your traditions with others, inviting them into the unique experience that was once new to you.

While the tradition may evolve over generations, the ability to pass along from previous generations not only the importance of the tradition but the manner in which those individuals from the earlier generations valued and shared the tradition. It’s those stories passed down and shared that make these events so very personal.

As the years pass, we realize that what we received, represents a lasting gift of love and joy. The only thing that makes that feeling even more prized is when you can pass along the same joy to the next generation.

It seems more diffi cult these to get in the “festive mood.” When we reflect on the world we live in with all the anger and disagreements we see bubbling on the surface, it’s too easy to join the fray instead of setting a more joyful mood, in keeping with the season.

Joy and love are out there, and it’s up to each of us to find it in our lives and share it with those around us, especially those who need to lighten up a little bit and see what they are missing. We all need this seasonal celebration to brighten our lives and strengthen the relationship we share with others in our world. ■

From the Editorial Board

County lawmakers should support Tobacco 21 Task forces across the state have been mobilizing for the past year to garner support to ban the sale of tobacco products to people under the age of 21.

Advocates are confident raising the age will help curb adolescent smoking by cutting off the supply.

It’s not impossible for youngsters to find an 18-year-old friend to buy cigarettes for them.

Not so much 21-year-olds.

Ninety-five percent of smokers begin before the age of 21, so logic dictates this will act as a roadblock for developing a lifelong habit.

Smoking rates are higher in the North Country than the state average of 15.6 percent, with numbers reaching as high as 27 percent in Franklin County.

The Tobacco 21 task force, led by Adirondack Health Institute, is encouraging a grassroots movement.

The group hopes municipalities and school districts will climb on board to create momentum for counties to approve raising the

U.S. should close tax loopholes To the Editor, President Trump has repeatedly promised not to touch Medicare and Social Security and to close loopholes to pay for tax cuts.

However, he supports the tax reform bills before Congress which will increase the federal deficit by $1,500,000,000,000, and probably more, over the next decade.

This will likely trigger an automatic cut of about $25 billion per year to Medicare.

House Speaker Paul Ryan has promised to put Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid on the chopping block as soon as tax reform is passed.

These programs aid about one in four residents in New York’s 21st Congressional District.

In terms of loopholes, the Paradise Papers unmask how many of the richest Americans and rich American corporations use offshore tax havens and complicated invisibility cloaks to shield many thousands of billions of dollars from the eyes of the United States government for the purposes of avoiding taxes.

Their actions are immoral and unethical, but not illegal.

As Congress attempts to craft tax-reform legislation, a high priority should be to make these activi-

age, which they have the ability to do at the local level with a simple up or down vote.

No counties in the six-country region — including Clinton, Franklin, Hamilton, Essex, Washington and Warren County — have yet brought a formal resolution to a vote.

We think they should vote to raise the age.

Making it more difficult for kids to start smoking is a no-brainer, and is just smart public policy.

By now, the facts on tobacco use are well-established.

Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death and disease in the U.S., killing a half-million Americans every year, including 28,000 New Yorkers.

Smoking continues to be a drain on the health care system, costing the U.S. $170 billion in annual health care expenditures, with direct and indirect losses to the American economy as a result of tobacco use totaling $330 billion annually.

Furthermore, the public is on board with

ties illegal. Failure to do so must be regarded as yet another huge tax break to the very richest Americans.

These loopholes are not addressed in the current drafts.

So if a tax bill is passed, many of the citizens in New York’s 21st Congressional District will be given the opportunity have their pockets picked to support the ultrarich who have hidden offshore accounts that can’t be taxed.

raising the age.

A study by the Centers for Disease Control revealed 75 percent of adults are in favor of raising the age, including 70 percent of smokers and 65 percent of people ages 18 to 24.

County lawmakers from across the North Country have raised some valid concerns over their reluctance to support the measure, including enforcement issues, the economic impact on retailers and the fact that if adolescents can join the military at the age of 18, they should be able to smoke, too.

We hear those concerns loud and clear.

But you also have to be 21 to purchase a firearm, rent a car and gamble in a casino.

Ultimately, this amounts to a public safety policy that will save lives.

Make no mistake about it: Smoking kills in agonizing fashion.

If lawmakers can help even one kid steer clear of a devastating lifelong habit, they should do so. ■

Elephant ban par for the course

Our worst president ever has degraded conservatism, the religious right, and now the GOP’s own mascot.

He can’t even coordinate a Fish and Wildlife decision. How can we trust this administration with nuclear weapons, health care, taxes, the environment, the Justice Department or foreign policy?

Frank Pagano, Jay ■

To the Editor: White House press secretary rationalized lifting the import ban on endangered big game trophies by claiming it was decided by career civil servants appointed

Just hours later, the president tweeted that the decision was “under review,” another way of saying it’s been reversed.

Behold the stunning incompetence of this administration, demonstrated by 1.) obliviously facilitating wealthy white hunters (such as his sons) to hire impoverished Africans to shoot dwindling elephant herds for entertainment; 2.) approving the dismember-

To the Editor, What would Reacher do?

The mystery book character Jack Reacher often tells others “ hope for the best, prepare for the worst.”

This is how I’m looking at the Republican House and Senate tax plans, neither of which appear to be reducing federal spending.

Rather they both appear to simply shift revenue from one source to another. Some being potential future sources, including borrowing.

Neither plan speaks of cutting federal spending which means annual deficit increases as the total government debt also increases.

The grossly overweight federal budget will not decrease, and this month, Congress and Trump will agree to raise the debt ceiling again and it’ll be off to the races with more borrowing.

Wherever Obama found $1.7 billion in cash to put on an airplane to Iran in the middle of the night and the $17 million slush fund that Congress uses to make their sex scandals go away will still be in place.

I wonder why congresspersons can’t use their own money to settle their own sex scandals.

I suppose I’m preparing for the worst when I suspect the Republican promise of $1,200 of tax money in our pockets will be as real as Obama’s $2,500 savings on our health care.

I suppose I’m being cynical with my lack of faith that we’ll have an extra $1,200 in our pockets because they may discontinue taking it from us. It’s not extra if it’s our money to begin with any more than it’s extra when a thief doesn’t rob you again.

It’s also not extra money if our children have to pay it back later.

I hope for the best, but if Congress can’t possibly get by with less than $3.2 trillion in annual revenue on a $4 trillion budget, well, I still fear the worst.

» Mission of Hope Cont. from pg. 1

Students, staff pitch in to help Nicaraguans

PLATTSBURGH | North Country Community College has donated boxes of unused medical supplies and equipment from its nursing program to the North Country Mission of Hope.

Now in its 19th year, the Plattsburgh-based North Country Mission of Hope provides healthcare, community development, ecological sustainability and education programs to the people of Nicaragua.

Lori Bennett, a registered nurse and the NCCC nursing program’s clinical coordinator, spearheaded the donation of medical supplies after hearing about a Mission of Hope supply drive, held Nov. 11 at Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake.

“In our lab, we have a storage room in the

nursing department and we have all these supplies,” Bennett said. “We have things that have been given to us that we wouldn’t use or are expired: boxes of gauze, vials of sterile water, plus crutches and a commode.

So I called the Mission of Hope and they said they would take it all.”

A trio of students in the college’s licensed practical nursing program – Adriania Fanelli of Morristown, Megan Davis of Saranac Lake and Emily Sorenson of Richmond, Virginia – dropped off several boxes of supplies and a car full of equipment at the Saranac Lake hospital.

“These are things we might take for granted, but people in third-world countries can really use,” Fanelli said. “And we’re spreading education, too, so these people can lead healthier lives.”

“If we have more and they have less, let’s balance out,” Sorenson said.

Jerry Stewart, a rehabilitation technician with Adirondack Health, coordinated the hospital’s supply drive for the second year in a row.

“It originally started when we needed a place to recycle crutches,” he said. “I found Mission of Hope and they would take the crutches,

but they also said they could use much more, so we came together on the mission drive.”

The second year of the supply drive was even better than the first, Stewart said. He attributed that to the damage Nicaragua sustained in October due to Tropical Storm Nate.

“The response this year has been amazing,” he said. “My shed is full. My van is full. My storage room is full. It would be a shame to just throw all these things out when others can use them. And it’s such a good cause.”

“I’d like to express our heartfelt gratitude,” said Sr. Debbie Blow, executive director of the North Country Mission of Hope. “This joint endeavor is one more example of how ‘hearts and hands working together’ can improve lives, as our mission states.”

Last year, the North Country Mission of Hope shipped seven containers of medical equipment, education supplies and food valued at over $500,000 to Nicaragua. Its food and nutrition programs fed over 6,500 children in 23 poor schools in 13 different barrios. It sponsored over 850 children in its education and orphan support programs.

Regional wastewater needs flagged in new report Costs to shore up outdated wastewater plants exceeds $100 million, says Adirondack Council

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | The state has allocated $32 million in grants to Adirondack communities for wastewater infrastructure and drinking water projects since 2015.

But it will take an additional $85 million to shore up “immediate needs” in roughly two dozen communities across the Adirondack Park, determined the Adirondack Council in a new report released last week, putting costs at over $100 million.

Localities across the North Country are in the process of upgrading their water and sewer systems, which are stressed by age and increased use.

Failing systems means effluent may seep into local streams, lakes and rivers, contamination that presents both human and environmental threats.

Several local wastewater treatment plants are under state Department of Environmental Conservation consent order, including those in Lake Placid, Crown Point, Ausable, Lake George, Ticonderoga, Westport and Hague.

An additional eight have been flagged as having a track record of having “historic incidents” of being out of compliance with DEC permitting requirements, including systems in Moriah, Willsboro, St. Armand, Au Sable Forks, Tupper Lake, Indian Lake and Newcomb.

The border towns of Peru and Champlain are also undertak-

Cadyville community tree lighting scheduled

CADYVILLE | The Annual Cadyville Community Tree Lighting will take place on Saturday, Dec. 9 at the Cadyville Fire Station beginning at 5 p.m. This event will have refreshments, hayrides with caroling and all are requested to bring a dessert to share.

New this year will be a decorated fire truck parade on Route 3 from the Goddeau Rd. to the fire station which will kick off at 5:30 p.m. The decorated trucks will remain displayed on Church Road, and the tree lighting will take place at approximately 6 p.m. with a special guest arriving with the parade.

This annual event is sponsored by St. James

ing sewer upgrades, with estimated project costs clocking in at $4 million and $7.1 million, respectively.

Despite the need, the tax base to fund the projects simply doesn’t exist across the region, and efforts in high-need communities require state assistance to avoid stiff user fee increases and long-term debt financing.

“More grants will be needed to help local taxpayers and communities if we hope to keep the Adirondack Park’s water clean and healthy for everyone,” said Executive Director William Janeway in a statement.

Still other communities are in the process of identifying estimated project costs for additional work needed at their facilities, Janeway said.

As a result, the estimate of an additional need for $85 million is for ready-to-go projects, and the need is expected to grow over time, he said.

The grants are a result of the state’s $2.5 billion five-year Clean Water Infrastructure Infrastructure Act. The current fiscal year’s enacted budget contains $100 million in funding, and the same amount has been slated for 2017-18.

The remaining local project costs are largely financed through the Federal State Revolving Loan Fund administered by the state Environmental Facilities Corp.

The next round for state grant funding is scheduled for 2018.

Janeway said federal representatives are working to boost federal funding for state revolving funds, and he pushed localities to identify projects in their communities.

“Now is the time for all communities to move forward, plan for their future needs and apply for future grants under New York State’s Clean Water programs,” he said. ■ State and local officials have made significant progress over the past three years addressing threats to water quality in the Adirondack Park, but still have far to go, said the Adirondack Council in a water infrastructure report released on Nov. 21.

Public policy and common sense

Tonight I witnessed a Congressional Debate. This week I’ve been witnessing a commuBy Colin Read nity debate.

• COLUMNIST • And this year we’ve been observing a national debate that has seemed to divide us further rather than bring us together.

I find divisiveness ironic. Our nation and community have far more in common than in conflict.

We’re a nation of the middle class, even as it shrinks between a growing wealthy class and a growing number of families without savings or income security. Yet, we remain Americans.

I try to look at every issue from a long run perspective. Communities must ponder how decisions today will stand the test of time and make our children’s life better than our own.

This long-run perspective is too economic and clinical for some. For instance, my community is wrestling with a footbridge that has failed and is causing hardship to a few dozen schoolchildren who relied on it to shave upward of a mile off their trip to school each day.

Decisions that got our community here were made well before me, and there are as many perspectives on the facts as there are people.

These perspectives don’t change three policy questions, though.

First, a community’s footbridge has failed. We must decide whether it makes sense to do a series of expensive rebuilds, a year or two at a time, and costing millions of dollars, on a 35-year-old bridge. It’s likely smarter to simply replace the footbridge with a modern one.

Then, we must compare the alternatives - a bridge at a different location nearby, a bridge that accommodates traffic and pedestrians, or an alternative to a bridge, such as better public transportation.

Finally, communities must decide who pays for it. In the footbridge case, does a school district and the State Education Department pay because the school district owns the bridge and State Ed will pay 70 percent of its replacement cost? Do city residents pay for a bridge it doesn’t own because they helped maintain it for years? If so, is it worth a 25 percent property tax surcharge? Can people afford that? Or, if the federal government might pay 90 percent of a mixed use bridge, should that be considered?

Such issues are complicated and demand careful and sober planning.

But, passion and misinformation makes for compromised decisionmaking. We agree more than not.

I remain confident we can make good decisions, for our kids’ sake. ■ — Colin Read is the Mayor of Plattsburgh

» Youth Program Cont. from pg. 1 As a result of the lack of awareness, the two villages failed to present a tentative budget to be included in the town budget, as per the agreement provisions.

Instead, town officials prepared — and the town’s governing board adopted — the program’s budget.

Since a separate program bank account was never established, town officials commingled program cash and the town’s cash in the same checking account, leading to what the comptroller’s office said was a lack of financial oversight.

State auditors found non-resident swim program fees were not remitted to the book-

keeper for deposit in 2015, and the program fees in 2016 which were remitted to the bookkeeper were not supported by adequate documentation, including duplicate press-numbered receipts or daily collection reports.

The Champlain Town Council also failed to establish or approve the salaries of any program employees paid by the town except for the town’s recreation director.

Each of the localities’ governing bodies are required to appoint a recreation director, and those three directors are responsible for the day-to-day administration of the program.

“Furthermore, we found that 13 claims totaling $9,553 were not certified by a recreation director indicating their approval,”

The BG/NC Sun | December 2, 2017 • 9

the report read. “We question the appropriateness of five claims totaling $856 for services provided that should most likely have been payroll disbursements, which were not supported by adequate documentation, and two claims totaling $1,894 for bus rentals that were not program activities.”

The bus rentals were to transport kids to skiing and snowboarding trips.

While officials said they have historically funded the bus rental, those activities are provided to children by a separate skiing and snowboarding club, the audit said.

Program expenditures were approximately $29,500 in 2015.

The report recommended the three local-

ities periodically review the agreement, as well as establish and approve the fees that are charged to non-resident swim program participants, tighten up deposit protocol and establish and approve the salaries of all program employees.

In a joint response to the report dated Oct. 16, Champlain Supervisor Larry Barcomb, Champlain Mayor Greg Martin and Rouses Point Mayor Daniel Letourneau said they have drafted a new inter-municipal agreement, which is in the process of being revised by each respective board and will be reviewed annually.

“The draft audit report provided eight recommendations and we are in agreement with those recommendations,” the co-signees wrote. ■

» Immigration Cont. from pg. 1

in Niger,” wrote Stanyon in a letter to federal immigration authorities. “The reaction of the government towards the song was hostile and Moussa’s life was threatened.”

Mahaman, who has no criminal record, first drew the attention of immigration authorities in 2006, and ICE ordered him to leave in 2008.

He agreed to self-deport. But Niger officials wouldn’t renew his passport, a measure necessary for him to travel, Stanyon said.

Mahaman was detained in 2010 at a security checkpoint in North Hudson, and deportation proceedings were staved off with a plea for political asylum.

“This was ultimately denied even though the current Niger regime consisted of the same people who had persecuted his father,” Stanyon said.

But he was released after six months on the condition he continue to try to receive travel documents.

“Mahaman couldn’t get a passport, although he tried numerous times to cooperate,” said Cheryl David, his lawyer.

Documents were sent to Niger, but were not returned.

“He wrote emails, he called — he did not get it,” Stanyon said.

After two trips to the Embassy of Niger in Washington, D.C. failed to produce a passport, the family opted to retain the services of a Philadelphia-based lawyer.

They were swindled.

“Fake documents were even sent to us to make it look like materials had been sent to the court,” Stanyon said. “We wasted all of that time.”

Mahaman was placed under supervision and was asked to routinely check in with authorities in Champlain every six months, a timeframe that was eventually shortened to three.

And he did so faithfully, said Stanyon.

“He did everything they wanted him to do,” she said.

Through it all, Mahaman continued to work at Mold Rite Plastics in Plattsburgh, and was a dedicated family man by the account of a half-dozen friends interviewed for this story.

“To me, he was always an honest guy,” said Rich Cusumano, a neighbor.

Despite his legal troubles, Mahaman remained a calm, comforting presence — even when the crises piled up.

Lukas Carter, his stepson, remembers when he rescued animals following Hurricane Irene, and rehabilitated the yard and farm structures damaged by the storm.

And he was there when Stanyon was diagnosed with breast cancer.

“Without a change in beat, Moussa took his place as the family’s captain, calmly steering my mom and us into a collective positive mind-state, keeping hope alive and despair at bay,” Carter wrote in a letter to authorities.

Carter and his brother were living in California at the time.

“Knowing my mother had someone to care for her on a daily basis was a blessing,” he said. “I know that not just his physical support, but his steadfast faith, spiritual strength and positive mentality got my mother through this horrific ordeal.

I am beyond thankful that Moussa is in my mother’s life.”

“The (U.S. Department of Homeland Security) no longer will exempt classes or categories of removable aliens from potential enforcement,” wrote then-Secretary John Kelly in a memo dated Feb. 20. “In faithfully executing the immigration laws, department personnel should take enforcement actions in accordance with applicable law.”

The order does not include so-called Dreamers — individuals who came to the U.S. illegally as children — or parents of American citizens.

To achieve the goal, Kelly directed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to hire 10,000 officers and agents “expeditiously, subject to available resources, and to take enforcement actions consistent with available resources.”

“The administration is fully implementing the mass deportation agenda,” said Laura Lynch, a senior policy associate with the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA).

The executive order, Lynch said, made it clear anyone in the U.S. who is undocumented could be deported regardless of their criminal history.

“ICE officers are required to arrest anyone out of status as required,” Lynch said. “Many individuals who have been law-abiding citizens for years are being subjected to this mass deportation force.”

LONG ODYSSEY

Mahaman’s detainment wasn’t entirely unexpected, and he’d been dealing with slow-burning issues over his legal status for years.

He originally came to the U.S. in 2003, entering legally on an entertainer’s visa. But he admittedly overstayed, citing political reasons.

The soft-spoken musician had reason to be fearful: His father was the former mayor of Niamey, Niger’s capital.

After a military coup d’etat, he was persecuted and jailed.

“He had written a song criticizing the government that was widely played throughout West Africa and particularly

Mahaman has been described by those who know him as a loving family man, hard-working employee and asset to the community.

BIG IMPACT

The Trump administration has branded the crackdown as a return to law and order.

Elizabeth Cohen, an associate professor of political science at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University, said not only are deportations harmful to families, but are also disruptive to the labor force and economy.

Once the labor force is disrupted, industries tend to au-

What does not happen, however, is a rise in income for native-born workers, she said.

Industries that cannot automate will lobby for more shortterm visas, Cohen said. But foreign nationals tend to overstay because the need doesn’t go away, and neither does the interest of those who want to come to the U.S. to work.

“If their status was adjusted, it is likely their impact on the economy would be even greater,” Cohen said.

Deportations are also expensive, with costs to find and deport a single undocumented immigrant clocking in at $12,000.

“I fail to see the upside,” she said.

Exact numbers on how many foreign nationals have been rounded up and deported under the crackdown are unavailable.

But the Immigrant Defense Project, a New York Citybased nonprofit, has been working with attorneys and advocates to compile statistics and trends detailing arrests and attempted arrests in courthouses across the state.

In 2016, there were 11 reports of ICE arrests and attempted arrests in courthouses statewide.

There have been 110 reports in 2017 to-date — a nearly 900 percent increase.

Twenty percent of the immigrants ICE arrested this year had no prior criminal convictions, the Daily News first reported last week.

Arrests have also occurred at family court and at routine appearances for traffic violations.

Before the shift, ICE officers had prosecutorial discretion, said David Gervais, a Quebec and Plattsburgh-based attorney who specializes in immigration law.

But that no longer exists, and Gervais said he now sees ICE agents showing up regularly at routine court hearings in Plattsburgh.

Federal agents are also being notified earlier when foreign nationals get into legal trouble on low-level offenses, including misdemeanors and violations.

A decade ago, it took weeks or months before authorities were informed, he said. Now, ICE will be made aware and immigrants will be put on an immigration detainer within 24 hours.

Immigration lawyers, said Gervais, have been caught flatfooted by the changes.

Under past administrations, the AILA was notified by federal authorities so they could weigh in with comments and considerations.

“Now, it’s, ‘Oh, by the way, we changed the law yesterday — good luck adjusting,’” Gervais said. “It’s turned into a rigid, cold heartless enforcement of immigration rules in which I’ve never seen before.”

Stanyon didn’t let Mahaman didn’t go without a fight.

David, the lawyer, filed an emergency stay of removal to reopen the case earlier this month.

And she kept hope alive until the last minute.

Thanksgiving was dark for the family.

Mahaman could return to the U.S. on a tourist visa, but the process could take 2 or 3 years, Stanyon said.

Kluwe, the family friend, despaired for her friends.

“I think Aisha would be really lost without him,” she said.

“We want to see him with us again, laughing and singing and playing guitar again. There’s so much love in this family and it’s heartbreaking.”

Jala Alloggio, his step-daughter, described the impact on her son Isaiah, who is two.

The first words of out Isaiah’s mouth when they arrive at the family home is, “Baba, Baba,” Alloggio wrote in a letter to authorities.

He would run from the car past Stanyon and right into his grandfather’s arms.

From there, they would play continuously all day long.

“Now he is still calling for his Baba, but Baba is not here,” Alloggio wrote. “It is heartbreaking. Isaiah does not understand why his Baba is no longer with us.” ■

manufacturer to a larger facility in Plattsburgh is expected to create 84 jobs.

The Quebec-based B3CG Interconnect’s new plant on Northern Avenue will double their production capacity, according to the governor’s office, who formally announced the grand opening on Tuesday.

B3CG invested $1.13 million to build and outfit the 28,000 square-foot location, with an option for an additional 7,000 square feet.

Empire State Development will provide up to $400,000 in performance-based Excelsior Jobs Program tax credits to aid with job creation over the next five years.

“The growth of B3CG is great news for Plattsburgh and more proof that New York has the talent and business climate to support the success of 21st century companies,” Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in a statement.

The company also provides subcontracting services for ground transport, medical equipment, industrial systems and power generation industries, as well as “leverage expertise in connectivity and power batteries to develop proprietary technology for smart battery modules for electric vehicles,” according to press materials.

The firm employs 100 at the present location.

B3CG President François Demers said the relocation meshes with the company’s strategic plan to answer increas-

“We now have the needed capacity to welcome additional new business supported by our excellent workforce,” Demers said in a statement. “We are very excited to open this new facility where we have invested in the long-term development of B3CG, and we thank New York State and Empire State Development for their support.”

North Country Chamber of Commerce President Garry Douglas said the firm is an example of one of the Canadianbased manufacturers economic development officials have prioritized attracting to the North Country as part of an emerging transportation and aerospace cluster.

The state Regional Economic Development Council system has led to a “supportive environment,” he said.

B3CG opened the Plattsburgh facility in 2009.

Local officials hailed the expansion and the state investment they said was critical to retain the firm.

“This project is great for the region, supporting and complementing our transportation cluster,” said Town of Plattsburgh Supervisor Michael Cashman in a statement. “I thank B3CG for staying in Plattsburgh, and thank Gov. Cuomo and Empire State Development for their continued investment in the North Country.” ■

Fleur-d’-Elise: Stefanik visits with Quebec business organization

By Keith Lobdell

COR E

STA FF W RITER

~

fccq

VAUDREUIL-DORION, QUEBEC | Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) brought some comfort to a group of business leaders during a joint meeting between the North Country Chamber of Commerce and a pair of Canadian chambers on Monday.

The Willsboro Republican spoke to members of the Federation des chambres de commerce de Quebec and Chembre de commerce et d’industrie de Vasudreuil-Soulanges at the Château Vaudreuil near Montreal, with the theme focused mainly on the future of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

“I do not support the termination of NAFTA,” Stefanik said after being asked if negotiations were failing on the part of the United States. “We know we can benefit from an international partnership like the one between Quebec and the North Country. This is a critical issue to our domestic economic policy.

I know there is a lack of certainty right now but, in my opinion, we need to keep the trade agreement and modernize it.”

Stefanik said she would like to see the new version of NAFTA, or “NAFTA 2.0,” as she called it, strengthened and also look at the issues of the modern market.

“We need to set a digital road map for trade,” she said. “We also need to give access to digital companies to both sides of the border.”

While voting against the GOP tax plan, Stefanik did say she supported one aspect that could affect international trade.

“I support the lowering of the corporate tax,” she said. “We have to focus on U.S. competitiveness and cutting the tax cap would

The congresswoman also added NAFTA talks need to be tri-lateral, because of the difference in the relationship of the United States with its neighboring countries, Canada and Mexico.

“We need to point out the differences between the two borders and the fact that the US-Canada relationship is much more collegial,” she said.

Those in attendance stressed the importance of the business relationship between Quebec and the North Country.

“I hope talks like this will bring more business opportunities on both sides,” said Marie-Andree Prevost.

“We hope a new NAFTA will bring new ways of collaboration and promotion of positive growth between the two countries,” said Stephane Forget. “Garry Douglas has been working with us to look at the trade corridor between Quebec and Northern New York and implement policies that positively impact economic growth.”

“Our focus is to broaden and deepen connectivity between us,” said Douglas. “The goal is to create a singular, bi-economic region.

We very intentionally make Plattsburgh indusive for the success of Canadian businesses in the United States. Our business is the success of Canadian business.”

Stefanik has introduced several pieces of legislation to strengthen the relationship

between the district and Canada.

The lawmaker’s “Promoting Travel, Commerce and National Security Act,” signed into law by President Obama, solidifies the pre-clearance agreement between the U.S. and Canada and helps expedite the arrival of goods and tourists into the country.

Stefanik has also introduced legislation that would allow Canadians over the age of 50 who own or rent a residence in the U.S. to stay in the country for an additional two months each year.

Douglas praised Stefanik for her role in the relationship between the two partners.

“Elise has very quickly emerged as one of the strongest voices in Congress and that works on our behalf and your behalf.” ■

Read the fine print on gift cards this holiday season, warns state comptroller New Yorkers should use gift cards within a year of purchase to avoid inactivity fees

ALBANY | New York State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli is urging New Yorkers to read the fine print on gift cards this holiday season for details about fees and expiration dates.

While some gift card sellers have done away with inactivity fees, consumers should still ask whether fees apply when purchasing a gift card.

DiNapoli said New Yorkers should use their

gift cards within a year of purchase to avoid inactivity fees and register cards with the retailers that offer it so the owner can be identified.

Money from unused gift cards issued by New York businesses is turned over to the State Comptroller’s office as abandoned property after five years of dormancy.

In State Fiscal Year 2016-17, $14.8 million from gift cards was turned over to the state’s Abandoned Property Fund.

“As New Yorkers begin their holiday shopping, gift cards are often a very popular purchase,” DiNapoli said. “Last year, my office received nearly $15 million from unused gift cards. Taking a minute to read the terms when purchasing or receiving gift cards can help you avoid fees.”

Under the Federal Credit Card Act of 2009, many types of retail cards sold after August 22, 2010 are not permitted to charge inactivity fees unless the card has been inactive for at least 12 months.

All terms and conditions for a card must be disclosed directly on the card and gift cards cannot expire within the first five years after purchase.

Since January 1, 2011, New York state has required companies offering rebates to disclose whether those rebates will be issued in the form of a gift card and whether any fees will apply to those cards. Rebate cards are not all covered by the same rules as regular gift cards, so this disclosure helps consumers to identify

----1Ji:tjf~

the different cards and how they can be used.

Gift cards may have terms and conditions that can decrease the value of the gift card.

These may include charging: • Service fees when the card is purchased; • Dormancy fees if the gift card is not used within a certain period of time; • Fees to call and check the balance remaining on the card; • Replacement fees for lost or stolen gift cards.

DiNapoli’s office is currently holding more than $15 billion in unclaimed funds from uncashed checks, bank accounts, stocks and more. To find out if you are owed money, visit www.osc.state.ny.us. ■

Paige Chilton

Lady Bobcats seek return to states

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

ELLENBURG | It’s a group of seniors who do not know what it is like to not make the state tournament.

Paige Chilton, Avery Lambert and Brittney LaValley have been part of sectional championship teams in multiple sports, and will seek to do so again as the girl’s basketball season gets underway.

“We will be an experienced team bringing back seven players from last year’s team,” coach Chris Brooks said. “They are experienced in the atmosphere of the state tournament and are hungry to get back and improve on our performance.”

Brooms said he will look to his returning starters for leadership this season.

“Paige Chilton, Avery Lambert and Emily Peryea will have to take leadership roles and help bring along the up-and-coming players on the roster in line with our team objectives,” Brooks said. “I believe every player on the roster will play a valuable role to be able to

fill the void from players lost to graduation (Danya Burl, Julianna Gardner).”

Brooks hopes his team will be competitive whenever they take the floor and will put in a lot of work honing their defensive skills.

“We will need to improve on team defense,” he said. “Improving our court communication and supporting each other on defense and offense will be imperative to reach our goals. As an offense we will have to be able to read, identify and react to our opponent’s sets.” ■ LADY BOBCATS BASKETBALL Name Grade No. 31 Paige Chilton 12 Avery Lambert 12 23 34 Brittney LaValley 12 Grace Thume 11 25 21 Emily Peryea 11 30 Kira LaBarge 10 10 Aiden Lambert 9 5 Madi Sequin 9 4 Emily Brooks 9

Bobcats look to defense

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

ELLENBURG | The Northern Adirondack varsity boy’s basketball team will work to have a strong team of defenders as the new season begins.

“We want to improve our defense and defensive IQ ,” coach Nate Bilow said. “Knowing how to rotate defensively and being able to provide help defense when a teammate gets beat off the dribble will be key. Our kids work hard in practice and have a desire to do well.”

Bilow, who is assisted by Kelley Gilmore, said the team has been making sure we are conditioned well to compete for 32 minutes a night during the preseason, and will look

Youthful Cougars seek Class B crown

Cougars experience key for hockey

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CHAMPLAIN | The Northeastern Clinton varsity hockey team will bring familiar faces to the ice as they prepare for the CVAC regular season.

“The main focus of our preseason training has been to get into shape, hone our skills, and to just get better each and everyday to prepare for the upcoming season,” said assistant coach Jon Grabie. “We are also allowing the players to get used to each others’ playing styles and getting the new comers and returning players prepared for the long grind.”

The Cougars are led by head coach Scott Lafountain, along with assistants Grabie, Justin Sample, Roch Bailey and Rick Garrand.

Grabie said the experience of the team will be a strong part of how the team grows.

“They are the heart and soul of the team,” he said. “Also, we are excited with how well our newcomers have been meshing in with the team. We have a lot of depth this season at all ends of the ice and hope that we can use that to our advantage.”

Grabie said the team needs to stay focused and prepared on a game-by-game basis as they seek to get better throughout the season.

“Like all the other teams in the league, we would like to win the league, make it out of sectionals and make it to the state tournament,” he said.

Nick Rowe, Brady Lafountain and Aiden Lavalley will be key on offense for the team, which will rely on a stacked defense with Baily Labombard, Noah Dupee, Adam Gallucci and Landon Coulombe, along with goalies Nick Ladue and Ethan Garrand. ■ COUGARS HOCKEY No. Player Grade 1 Cody Lyon 11 2 Aidan LaValley 10 3 Noah Gonyo 9 4 Ryley Duffy 12 5 Brady LaFountain 12 6 Ian Gordon 12 7 John Bulson 9 8 Adam Gallucci 12 9 Samuel Bulson 9 10 Alexander Richard 12 11 Bailey LaBombard 12 12 Nicholas Rowe 12 13 Raymond Miller 10 14 Landon Coulombe 11 16 Michael Pennington 10 17 Lucas Bedard 9 19 Noah Dupee 12 20 Zachary Miller 10 21 Evan Wager 12 24 Ethan Garrand 9 25 Kyle Vassar 12 30 Anthony Bracomb 12 33 Nicholas LaDue 12

CHAMPLAIN | The defending Class B champions will be looking to new players to help them defend the title this season.

While the team will return all star Rylee Hollister, the near 1,000-point scorer will be the only upper classman on the 2017-18 roster, with four juniors, three sophomore and a freshman.

“The primary focus has been working on trying to get the defense to work as a unit and make sure that we are capable of communicating effectively,” new coach Luke Connell said. “We also have been pushing to work harder because of the youth of this team. I think we have a strong defense and will be able to make teams work for their points in the paint. We also can be a very fast team when push ourselves to work.”

With a strong defensive team, Connell hopes the team will work on their offensive sets throughout the season and continue to improve.

“We need to improve on our offensive looks to make sure that we are moving the ball to get the best shot possible,” Connell said. “The goal of this team is to take one game at a time and improve all year. We want to be successful and that starts by focusing each opponent as we face them.” ■ COUGARS BASKETBALL Player No Year Rylee Hollister (pictured above) 23 Sr Ben Collins 50 Jr Ian O’Donnell 34 Jr Jordan Timmons 21 Jr Brayden Racine 32 Jr Alex Gomez 45 So Owen Hollister 15 So Spencer Trudo 14 So Bryan Claudio 22 Fr

Lady Cougars set for season

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CHAMPLAIN | The Northeastern Clinton girl’s varsity basketball team is a year older in their skill development, while having a new, yet familiar face on the sidelines.

Robb Garrand, who has been the coach of the Cougars boy’s varsity for the past 12 years, has moved over into the same role with the girl’s team.

“It is a wonderful challenge and I look forward to being part of a successful program,” said Garrand, who led the boy’s team to a Class B title last year. “The girls have a great attitude and they work hard. A lot of teams have some solid players returning so we will need to be ready to play with defensive stops, boxing out and finishing our shots.” ■ LADY COUGARS BASKETBALL Player Grade Gabrielle Dumas 11 Grace Dumas 11 Haleigh Hicks 12 Caitlin Houghton 11 Sydney Hunter 11 Jazmin Lushia 12 10 Kya McComb (Pictured above) Abrielle Racine 9 Emily Royea 12 Marlie Sample 9 Katelyn Southwick 12

Eagles hope defense leads to success

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CHAZY | In his playing days, Clay Sherman gave Chazy defenders nightmares on both the basketball court and soccer pitch.

Now, the former Willsboro standout is at the helm of the Eagle’s boys basketball program, preaching defense first.

“Our primary focus during the preseason will be defense,” Sherman said. “We will be reviewing the basics of defending and learning how to defend as a unit. We have a large roster with multiple athletes that will get up and down the floor. Our length will play another key role in our performance as a team.”

Sherman said he would be able to learn more about the team throughout the season and work between games to fix areas of improvement.

“Our goals as a team will be to create a basketball culture at our school,” Sherman said.

“Along with developing our

basketball program we will be looking to develop leaders both on and off the court.

Key players in our program start with our number one guy on the floor to our last man on the bench. Basketball is a team game where each individual shares equal value to the team’s success.” ■ EAGLES BASKETBALL Player Grade Kyle Cahoon 12 Ben Norcross 11 Gabe Huchro 10 Alex Chapman 11 Brice Panetta 11 Bryan McAfee 12 McClain Dudyak 11 Andrew Tenell 11 Josh Anderson 11 Ely Moak 12 Preston Laurin 11 Adain Huchro 11 Connor Morse 12 Bryce Maskell 11 Devin Therrian 9 Josh Lamoreu 11

New faces key to another Eagles hockey run

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

BEEKMANTOWN | After an appearance in the NYSPHSAA Final Four last season, the Beekmantown hockey program will need new faces to fill key roles heading into the new season.

“After graduating several key players from last year’s Final Four team, will be looking towards several younger players to step up and fill those roles on our team,” said coach Justin Frechette. “As a coaching staff, we are looking forward to seeing the younger players in our lineup develop as the year goes on. We have had a great preseason so far and the players are working hard each and every day in practice to develop their game.”

As always, Frechette said his team will be challenged with a very strong non-league schedule as well as in league.

“Our players are looking forward to the challenge of a very demanding schedule once again this season that will see us play some of the top teams in New York and Vermont from both the Division I and Division II ranks, including our annual Beekmantown Tournament the Applebee’s Winter Classic Dec. 16-17 at the Stafford Ice Arena which should be one of the premier tournaments in the state as New Hartford, Rye and NCCS are all competing on that weekend.” ■

Returning core key for Eagles

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

BEEKMANTOWN | The Eagle’s varsity boys basketball team will be looking for strong contributions from a core of returning players as they hope to compete for a Class B title this season.

“Our returners will need to step up and be stronger leaders, and our new guys will need to accept their roles and excel when given the opportunity,” coach Ryan Converse said.

“We only have three returning seniors so we have been focusing on getting the new guys acclimated to varsity and getting everyone comfortable with their new roles.”

While many players will be new, Converse believes the team will be able to work together on the offensive end well while bringing their defensive game along.

“We will be generally athletic and have decent scoring balance,” Converse said. “We do not have a dominant go-to guy, so we will have to be unselfish and play as a team. This should make it harder for teams to guard us because they won’t be able to key on one individual.

“We will need to get better defensively, both individually and as a team we need to take pride in our ability to defend teams and take away their strengths,” he added. ■

PLATTSBURGH| The Hornets varsity boy’s basketball team comes back this season with more experience and a solid core of players to again compete for — and this time win — the Class B title.

“We have a lot of basketball experience and kids that love to play the game,” said head coach Chris Hartmann. “We want to be able to reach our potential as a team.”

Hartmann said the team has worked on conditioning, team chemistry and defense as the season has began, and will look to improve their talk as well as on-ball defensive play.

Zalis, who starts the year 225 points shy of the 1,000point career mark, will be a presence inside and on the boards for the defending MVAC Division I champions.

PLATTSBURGH | The Seton Catholic boy’s varsity basketball team is ready to return to the court as reigning CVAC champions.

However, they will do so without 1,000-point scorer and MVP, Kevin Murray, but with a group of players who know how to play the game together.

“Our team chemistry should be our greatest strength,” coach Larry Converse said. “The kids are really getting after each other in practice, which in turn makes each player that much better.”

Neil Yang is the top returning scorer for the Knights, having averaged 8.4 points last season. He returns along with fellow starter Dawson Pellerin.

“Alex Sharon and Felix Sham also played consider-

able minutes, and these four will have to produce for us to have success,” Converse said.

Converse said the team is working hard to get through the preseason and head into the post-Thanksgiving start.

“We need to improve our team defense, learn how to play with each other and trust whoever is on the floor,” Converse said. “The main key is to get better every day and play our best basketball at the end of the season and into sectionals.” ■

SARANAC | Teamwork will be a key for the Saranac boy’s varsity basketball program to have a strong season.

“Our strengths this season are we have a great group of unselfish players who are working hard every day to get better,” said coach Mike Recore. “We have several kids who have a good basketball sense. The returning juniors Andy Lebeau, Issac Garman, Cameron Duffield and Luke Maye will be key.

Also with the return of Nick Lebeau from an injury-plagued season, along with newcomers Cogan Johnston and Connor Recore, should prove to interesting for the Chiefs. We are also

looking for our seniors Noah Medley, Marcus Baisi, Dylan Stoughton and Zach Marlow to provide that leadership needed to get us to the top. Also new additions Hunter Mossey, Andrew Bova, Joe Webster will need to contribute to our success.”

Recore said the team has worked on defensive presence and using speed and athleticism to our advantage.

“We need to continue focus on the defensive end while focusing on finishing on the offensive end,” Recore said.

“Also, a huge thing is working together as a unit throughout the highs and lows of the season. The goals of the season are to improve in the win/loss column and continuing to grow as a team. We have some varsity experience and need

to continue to build on that.” ■ CHIEFS BASKETBALL Grade No, Player 12 Noah Medley 12 12 14 Marcus Baisi 35 Zach marlow 12 12 40 Dylan Stoughton 00 Cameron Duffield 11 2 Andrew Bowa 11 3 Hunter Mossey 11 4 Luke Maye 11 Nick Lebeau 11 5 13 Joe Webster 11 23 Issac Garman 11 15 Connor Recore 10 24 Cogan Johnston 10

Lady Chiefs set for season

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

SARANAC | A combination of skill and experience will be key for the Lady Chiefs as they enter a new season on play.

“We have a good combination of veteran players returning to go with some talented underclassmen,” said coach Tim Newell. “We have been focusing on individual skills and conditioning to prepare for the up coming season.”

Newell said the mix of players will lead to chances to grow throughout the season.

“We have quite a mix with five seniors, two juniors, three sophomores and two freshmen,” he said. “We have the ability to try many different line-ups this year. I believe our success will be determined on how well we gel as a team and how well players except their roles throughout the season. We will need to rely on our seniors for leadership and I expect our younger players to improve quickly. This is key to our success.”

Newell said their development will depend on their work ethic.

“Our main goal is to work extremely hard each and every day in practice to give us the best opportunity to succeed,” he said. “I think the league is very balanced this year and the team that defends well will have the upper hand.” ■ 24 Olivia Layhee 12 LADY CHIEFS HOOPS 30 Kayla Myers 10 No. Player Grade 32 Skye O’Connell 12 10 Hannah Dessureault 11 34 Allison Garman 9 12 Alivia Waldron 11 44 Brandi LaVarnway 12 14 Elise LePage 10 50 Payton Couture 9 20 Mikayla St. Louis 10 54 Alli Plumadore 12 22 Taylor Alexander 12
