As it has all summer, the Art Walk is being held in conjunction with the North Creek Farmers’ Market in the afternoon and Cruise Night in the evening. Local artists are set to showcase their work on from 5 to 7 p.m.

The Third Thursday Art Walk, currently in its third year, gives community members a chance to experience the best in the region’s artistic talent. North Creek businesses host local artists, displaying their work and holding receptions. Participating businesses will be marked with a red felt “balloon,” letting everyone on the street know to come inside and meet the artists.

“The Art Walk made North Creek the place to be,” said Bowers, who co-organizes the event with her daughter, Anna Bowers. “Often accompanied with live music and beautiful weather, the CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

New Belleayre reps attend ORDA meeting

By Shaun Kittle newsenterprise@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — Two new members of the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) Board attended their Sept. 18 meeting.

Joe Kelly is now serving as co-vice chair with standing vice chair Serge Lussi and John Parete has been added as a voting member of the board.

Both men were appointed by Gov. Cuomo and will represent Belleayre, a ski resort in the Catskills.

Earlier this year, a plan was put in motion to transfer control of the resort from the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to ORDA. “The DEC still has operating control of Belleayre, but once an MOU is agreed upon by both parties, the DEC and ORDA, then ORDA will take over the operations,” said ORDA communications manager Jon Lundin.

Lundin added that the board hopes to have the transition completed within the next two months.

“It’s a nice addition to our family and what we try to do to in terms of promoting winter activities,” Lundin said.

The two new board members were announced at an ORDA board meeting Sept. 19, along with plans to make improvements to the three resorts managed by the organization — Whiteface CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

New pastor to serve local Methodist churches

By Paul Winkelman

G

reetings in the name of Jesus Christ, towns of Riparius, Wevertown, Johnsburg, Pottersville, and all other surrounding communities.

My name is Paul Winkelman, and as of July 1, I was appointed to serve as the pastor of the Riparius-WevertownJohnsburg United Methodist Church and the Pottersville United Methodist Church. My parents, Michael and Susan Therio, have lived in Wevertown for about seven years, as my stepfather, Michael, works at the North Warren Central School District. I have always enjoyed visiting this area to see my parents. My wife, Melissa, and I are excited and blessed to be serving in this part of the Adirondack Park.

In an effort to introduce myself more fully, I am originally from northern Illinois. I moved to New York with my mother, Susan, my brother, Ken, and my sister, Gail, when I was in fourth grade.

From this point, I spent the rest of my childhood in Orange County, New York, where I graduated from the Monroe-Woodbury High School. My folks desiring to live in a slower paced and more rural setting began to look to moving north at this point. In 1999, I began attending the State University of New York at Potsdam. While there, I earned a bachelor ’s degree in history and secondary social studies education 7-12. I also earned a master ’s degree in secondary social studies education 7-12. Of all I accomplished at SUNY Potsdam though, my greatest accomplishment was meeting and marrying my beautiful wife, Melissa.

Melissa and I married in 2004, as I was just starting a high

Pastor Paul Winkelman and his wife, Melissa school teaching position in Moravia, which is Cayuga County. I had recently taught a large portion of school year at the Potsdam High School, and I taught at the Moravia High School for two years. In desiring to help children and families beyond just a classroom setting, I went into the field of social work. For four years, I was a family caseworker in Tompkins County, and while there I worked with adolescent males and their families. The things I learned and experience in this job, proved formative for my Christian faith and development towards becoming a minister. Around this time,

I also made a Walk to Emmaus spiritual retreat weekend, which is a United Methodist Church sponsored retreat.

While I had always been raised in a Christian home, I never considered a calling to ministry. Through attending the Moravia/Locke United Methodist Church, where my wife and I still live for part of the week, for eight years, my faith grew and grew. I began lay leading, doing pulpit supply preaching for other churches, and I attended a Walk to Emmaus spiritual retreat weekend. This culmination of all of this, combined with my social work experience, affirmed in me the need for the love of God in the world today.

With strong confidence and faith that I was called by God to serve in ministry, I entered the Northeastern Seminary in Rochester, N.Y., which is part of Roberts Wesleyan College.

After attending there for two years, I was asked to serve two churches in this area of the Adirondack Park. My last two years of seminary will be completed through the United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio, via the Internet, and periodic one week on campus class sessions. As I continue my path towards becoming an ordained Elder in the United Methodist Church, I am richly blessed and excited to be part of your loving and friendly communities.

While my wife and I only come up to this area a few days a week, we are talking about relocating up here permanently at some point. My wife currently works as a 4-H educator in Cayuga County, the county where our permanent residence is.

Once again, greetings to all towns, people, and communities in this great part of the Adirondack Park. I look forward to meeting and serving the people of this area, and may God richly bless you and your family.

ORDA board members seemed excited to announce their plans for the upcoming winter season, but the meeting wasn’t just about attracting visitors.

Leslie Karasin, program manager and Community Planning Project Coordinator for the Wildlife Conservation Society, thanked ORDA for its efforts to raise awareness on Bicknell’s thrush, a songbird.

“Whiteface is a phenomenal venue to spread this message,” Karasin said. “So many people come into contact with the mountain and the nesting habitat that’s there, it was a great opportunity to think about conservation.”

Dissolution: Holderman needs to leave committee; Village Board should allow K-ville residents to vote

T

wo things have been made clear over the past nine months: Dissolution is in the best interest of the village of Keeseville; but the board of trustees, especially Mayor Dale Holderman, will do everything to stand in its way.

The Keeseville Dissolution Committee has been meeting since January, assigned by the village board to look at the possibility of the dissolution of the village along with other options that could save taxpayers money.

The Valley News has been present at all but one of these meetings, watching the process unfold and the reactions of town and village leaders. No one else can say that. Only once has there been a reporter from another news agency present, and that person is currently employed by us.

Through those meetings, it has become clear that village government is not needed in Keeseville and thus needs to be dissolved.

First, the towns of Ausable and Chesterfield already provide many key services for the residents of the village. Towns are responsible to provide services to all their residents, outside or inside the village. Also, village court and other services have already been taken over by the towns. Eliminating the village eliminates the redundancy that currently exists.

When it comes to water and sewer, the two towns have already stated their commitment to continue to serve the residents. Members from each town council have also brought up the possibility of expansion, lowering rates for all system users.

Holderman, who was elected to the position after the dissolution committee had started to meet, sent out a letter to residents of the village voicing his opposition. “Village residents lose so many of the things that citizens have worked for over 100 years to accomplish.

There are no legal means to hold either of the Towns to their agreements. There is no guarantee that any Village Resident will receive any services at all.”

We strongly disagree. As we have said, the towns already provide the majority of the services that village residents currently have, with little needs of expansion. Garbage collection will be eliminated, but there are still transfer stations.

Does Holderman really think that town governments cannot be trusted? Does he truly believe that Gerald Morrow, Sandi Senecal or other North Country supervisors do not have

the best interests of their constituents in mind? Or, is this an attempt to save the jobs of elected officials that can be consolidated easily? Is this just an attempt to pit village against town in a border war over a border that really isn’t there?

Addressing the other point of losing identity, what is really going to be lost? People will still call Keeseville by its name, just like they do in Bloomingdale. The Revitalize Keeseville organization will still be able to work to improve the community, with Holderman hopefully staying on as a contributing member.

Another issue is Holderman is a sitting member of the dissolution committee which was formed to be an “un-biased” group. Holderman stated when he started on the committee that he had no bias, but that is no longer the case, and therefore he should resign his position on the committee. We are not saying that he should no longer be mayor, but he should not have an official capacity on the committee.

It has become apparent that Holderman and the board will not act on the Dissolution Plan when it is presented to them. The members each showed their hand. Mary King, a trustee and committee member has not spoken as openly against dissolution but has spent the past three meetings trying to thwart it. There was also the village sanctioning an anti-dissolution meeting Aug. 28, along with the letter sent out by the mayor. We question if an official village newsletter is the right place for a personal, political statement.

At the very least, the village board should allow the residents they represent to vote on the matter without having to call for a vote through referendum, where signatures representing 10 percent of registered voters in the village are required. The choice seems clear: If it’s about what is best for the taxpayers, then the village board will allow a vote.

But if it’s about making themselves look needed or saving elected jobs, then the village board will do nothing, leaving residents with the sole option of referendum. Do the right thing.

This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Shaun Kittle, Keith Lobdell, Stephen Bartlett, Andy Flynn, Katherine Clark and John Gereau.

The value of Liberty and Life

S

ome days it’s hard to be optimistic and positive about the future. Current events around the world, wrangling political parties warning us the other side will drive us into Armageddon, the unemployment rate, fuel prices and the general mood of folks lately is anything but uplifting. I’ve heard some people say the mood is downright mean-spirited and that people seem to be self consumed.

Like a big jigsaw puzzle, one piece can have an overwhelming influence over the other pieces or it can just fall into place with all of the others. Sometimes the solution to the puzzle is right in front of us.

We just have to look. Other times, the solution can be lost in the sheer number of pieces surrounding it.

Look at recent events in the Middle East. After years of totalitarian rule, where every move of the people was controlled by a stiff-handed dictator, years of pent-up anger and a desire to test the limits of this newfound freedom are being released. The population there is finding they are as frustrated now as they were before they overthrew the former government. How much do you think their lives would improve if they brought about death to America, as they so often chant during their protests? On the other hand, how much have our lives or the world changed since the deaths of Osama Bin Laden, Sadim Hussein or Moammar Gadhafi? Those three men were killers and treated the people of their nations horribly, but their deaths alone have not brought about instant gratification to their nations, nor have their deaths altered people’s attitudes toward America.

They were once influential pieces to the puzzle but never the complete picture.

There is no magic formula to finding happiness and a life of freedom and liberty. Like a puzzle, it’s a process. At the core of our Constitution and the rights we’ve been awarded as a free people it all boils down to the value we place on those rights. Without realizing the full value these rights give us they are only words on paper that governments, leaders, lawyers or citizens can easily minimize.

But when we place great value and cherish these rights as one of our most prized possessions, and are willing to risk everything for fear of losing them, we begin to understand their true value.

Let me put it another way. Recently I

was visiting an employee who experienced a serious accident while on the job that placed him Dan Alexander in the hospital, Thoughts from paralyzed from Behind the Pressline the shoulders down. We are all praying an operation will restore the full use of his body, but until the results of the operation are realized he is left hoping for the simple things many of us take for granted every day. In speaking with him, the joys of moving his body at will, hugging his wife, children and grandchildren, walking on his own two feet once again and the joy of just living his life will now be the greatest of gifts. When the stark realization of what you’ve lost may never return you truly realize the value of what you’ve lost, and if returned, no day in the future would ever be taken for granted.

If everyone could come to that simple realization, without undergoing the pain of losing or never having known those precious gifts, and be willing to celebrate that same opportunity with every other human, how great would this world be and how thankful and respectful would we be toward each other? Oh sure, we would still have problems to resolve, but we would be far more understanding and willing to work with each other to overcome the simple things while valuing the irreplaceable things.

Is any day not a great day where you have your health, family and the freedom to pursue your version of happiness? The most self destructive thing we can do in life is to assume that our happiness comes from someone else’s misery. In life, in politics and in our communities happiness is built on the simple joys of building something together and celebrating the joy of that accomplishment. This country, while far from perfect, will only find its way out from under the dark clouds when we remember to cherish how far we’ve come as a nation and work together to pass along that same opportunity and these important values to the generations that follow.

September 22, 2012 Indian Lake Chamber News

The River Starts Here

By George DeChant

E

is the letter of the month. Not the Chamber letter, but the Commerce letter.

E as in electronic communications or E-Connect from the Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce (ILCC).

There are many forms of communication and while some are better in one situation and not in another, it helps to use them all to cover the bases.

This column is a very valuable one. It gives the Chamber a chance to communicate with both members and non-members. The non-members include a lot of people who would never join the Chamber — either directly or indirectly. Directly would be as a business and indirectly would be employees of a business who might not think they belong to the Chamber, but they reap the benefits of working for a member business.

One group of the non-members is the many readers of the News Enterprise.

While that group may never join the Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce, or even have a reason to, they may be interested in what is going on in Indian Lake.

They might be one of the folks who would like to attend the Great Adirondack Moose Festival (GAMF) or play in the ILCC Golf Outing or play horseshoes during the summer.

They might be like me and are thinking about going out to eat and Indian Lake would become their destination.

Once a month, we have that access and

Stay connected through e-marketing are grateful to the News Enterprise. They have been kind enough to place us in their online edition — or as I like to think of it the Electronic Edition; starting with an E. If you search “The River Starts Here” at www.newsenterprise.org, you would find this column.

At ILCC, we are finding that the EConnection is one that is still growing.

Part of that is because more and more people rely on the Internet to gather information and some of it is because we nurture the E-Connection. We send out announcements to our members, we keep a webpage and two Facebook pages.

Our latest entry into the E-Connection is our mobile site. This loontails well with the free Wi-Fi you can get at the Chamber office. If you surf to www.indian-lake.com, you will be able access the mobile site. It isn't as fancy or colorful as our main page that was created by Grateful Design (www.gratefuldesign.com), but if you are using a smart phone or iPod, it will be much easier to read, with the same information available to you.

If you are wondering why a mobile site is important, first think of all the people you know who do most of their communication with a smart phone. In our area, we haven’t totally embraced cell service, but it is on the way (thanks to the diligent work by the Indian Lake Town Board). Or a second way to look at it is: a statistic I just heard the other day, something like the combined sales of all computers is less than the sales of iPhones.

So it is clearly important to adapt to that market. The Chamber mobile site does that for our members (one more, of the many, great reasons to contact the Chamber). If you are interested stop by our website (www.indian-lake.com) and

drop us an e-mail or give us a call.

And that is the greatest of all communications. The Chamber board pretty much is in constant contact with each other via e-mail. I just received an e-mail from Brenda Valentine about the GAMF. I will send this column to our Marketing Committee before it goes to the News Enterprise. Then it will be sent to Andy Flynn, assistant managing editor, for publication.

We share a lot of great information with our members via e-mail. For example, last week we had an accommodations meeting with Ann Melious, Director at Hamilton County Economic Development and Tourism. (They don't just have a mobile site; they have an app!) In that meeting she mentioned a way for businesses to get some free exposure.

The three ILCC board members and administrative assistant instantly realized we would be passing this on to help members. As you know, free is good, and this was something that would take little effort and would offer up returns for years to come.

All that said, to have an E-Connection is only a great marketing tool, if you use it. A Facebook Page or Twitter account only works if you keep it active and you respond to requests. For example, when the Chamber sends an e-mail, it probably has important information, but the value goes way down if you don't read your e-mail.

At the end of the month, we hope to have another Bus Tour, but the details have yet to be worked out and an E-Connection will be coming.

Oh and the mobile site, if you are wondering, yes I did the restaurant page first. This reminds me, I need to check the schedule Raquette Lake Navigation (www.raquettelakenavigation.com/) schedule. You can bet they have a mobile site! Stay entertained.

In search of old growth forest

T

Op/Ed • News Enterprise - 7

www.newsenterprise.org

he ribs I cracked three weeks ago are much better, so when a friend called asking if I could be ready in 20 minutes for a walk through an “old growth forest” with an expert biologist and ecologist, I could and I was!

A group called Old Growth Forest Network is looking for examples of this kind of forest in every single county in the country that has forests, so that short, easy trails can be built to them for families, school kids, and other average-ability walkers.

The point is to have these increasingly rare woods to show what our natural heritage was to every American who will invest a little effort in getting there.

Citizens across the country will be able to enjoy their own ancient forest types for as long as fire, derechos, hurricanes, drought, or insects do not impact it too much. In the vast forest cover before man (including native Americans) affected it, a few huge trees down was a chance for new kinds of plants and animals to use the increased light. In our “asbestos Adirondacks,” fire is unlikely to change the ecosystem very often, but the other processes definitely will.

Back to the walk. We drove to Lewey Lake, south of Indian Lake, and took the West Canada Lake hiking trail from the south side of the DEC campground. Immediately the huge hemlocks, red and sugar maples, red spruce, yellow birch and dying but large beech created a beautiful cathedral-like canopy, the ground covered with ferns, wild flower leaves, and mosses, and with hobblebush, the commonest shrub. This type of forest is often used for winter deeryards because the big hemlocks keep the snow cover thin and hobblebush buds are a favorite food. The trail itself is almost all dry and gently hilly and windy. Joan Maloof, founder of the Network (google it for maps and info) had found her Hamilton County trail within minutes! But we just kept walking because it was too nice to stop.

We didn't get too far because as is the case with my other na-

ture nut friends, everything in sight and sound was grist to our mills. Joan is from Maryland, so a very common woods flower, Dewdrop or Dalibarda, was a “lifer” for her. An orangish “cauliflower” mushroom high on a dead tree was new to all of us.

Though most of the ground was dry, when Joan felt a rotten log, it was soggy--and moved. A dark toad was enjoying the damp coolness. Red-backed salamanders (which add up to the most animal biomass in the Park though most people have never seen one) and countless other organisms (insects, bacteria, fungi, slime molds) are dependent on decaying logs. We saw two big rotten logs covered with thick moss and tiny yellow birch saplings, which have to have “nurse trees” to get started. That's why you see yellow birch standing up on their roots, after the rotten stump or log disintegrates. Standing snags are just as critical as logs, for nesting sites for birds and animals.

What is old growth?

Scientists almost come to blows over the definition, but they all know one when they see, smell, hear, and feel one. Some scientists say old growth needs to have half of its biomass in dead and downed trees. Others say the average age of the dominant trees should be half the oldest they can live. There are many other criteria possible. I found an area near Lake Francis that has many acres of tall, straight white pines, the lowest branches 40 feet up, with lush sedge, flower, fern, moss, and liverwort ground cover. But the trees are only 120 years old so they do not quite qualify. It is forest preserve, however, and we need a hiking and snowshoeing trail there!

If you know about a possible area that you think fits the bill for a county old growth forest trail, let me know, please. Here in Warren County Pack Forest is an obvious place, but we should find another new area near North Creek, maybe in the Siamese Ponds Wilderness area. However, it needs to be within a mile or so of a road where an easy trail can be built. It could be a draw for many tourists just as mountains and waterfalls are. And many native Adirondackers have probably never seen what our original forest looked like.

Chris Hitchcock Run a success BAKERS MILLS — On Aug. 25, the Fifth Annual Chris Hitchcock Run and Pig Roast was held at J&J’s Tavern. The full day of events started with a motorcycle ride in the morning.

After the ride, an auction was held before the tasty pig roasted to perfection was served. Following the meal — biker games were enjoyed — not only by the participants but by spectators as well. Music by Stephen L. Smith Band was the ending entertainment for the event.

The money raised is used for students going into the conservation field or heavy equipment operation. The funds are also used to aid families in the trucking or logging businesses who are going through hard times due to illness or accident.

Chris’s family would like to thank all of the businesses who contributed to making this event the most successful year so far.

Kim’s Closet a welcome stop for clothes shoppers

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — One new store that’s caught the attention of local clothes connoisseurs is Kim’s Closet, which shares space with Betula’s on the second floor of Izzy’s Market and Deli at 282 Main St. “I think it’s something that we need in this town,” said owner Kim Smith, adding that train travelers and second-home owners have found her consignment store since opening in June.

However, it’s been a bigger hit with locals.

“If you’re going out on a date or if you’re going out for girls night and you want a new shirt and a new pair of jeans, you pretty much have to go to Glens Falls,” Smith said. “Even teenagers, if they have a dance coming

up. Their families are working all week long, nobody has time to take you to Glens

Falls, so you’re not getting a new outfit. Whereas, this is reasonable. Most tops are

around $6 to $8, jeans $10 to $12.”

For the most part, Smith

sells gently used clothing and shoes.

“There are some new things,” Smith said. “Things that I and other people bought for something, and then you get it home and it doesn’t quite fit exactly the same, some things still with tags.”

At Kim’s Closet, there are two rooms full of clothes, shoes and accessories. There are mainly women’s clothes, but there are some men’s clothes as well.

One room features a large, two-door wardrobe that’s been in the building for a long time. It dates to 1909, Smith said. Inside are fancy dresses and prom gowns.

“During prom season, I’m going to make this room big with prom gowns and try to get that going because everything is so expensive today,” Smith said.

In the next room are jeans, tank tops, T-shirts, dresses, shorts, shoes, men’s clothes and handmade jewelry.

“I would like to get some more local jewelry, because a lot of people look for jewelry,” Smith said. “We sell a lot of bags, different handbags and belts.”

As a consignment store, the inventory frequently changes.

“I have tons of stuff that

I’m still trying to get out,” Smith said. “That’s another thing that’s great about this.

It’s something you can come to every week, and it’s going to be totally different because every week I’m getting new items in. You just have to hit it where somebody your size just came in that has your taste and you hit the jackpot. You just have to keep coming back.”

For now, Smith wants to concentrate on clothing, but she’s open to the idea of carrying goods other than clothes, depending on the space.

“Who knows, down the road, because people are constantly asking for household items,” Smith said.

“My space is limited here as to what I can have, so I’m concentrating on clothes right now. But down the road, you never know.”

She would also like to start carrying children’s clothes and plus sizes for women.

“I don’t want people to think it’s just tiny, little clothes,” Smith said. “I’m trying to make it for everybody.”

Kim’s Closet is open in the fall from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Wednesday-Saturday. For more information, call (518) 812-4869.

Adirondack Tri-County Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, union ratify contract NORTH CREEK — The 1199 SEIU nursing home employees at ATCNRC located in North Creek have ratified a new contract.

Administrator Hal Payne said the Union worked with us and settled on a 4 year contract that is beneficial to our employees and improves our ability to take care of our residents. In these shaky economic times both parties feel more secure with a contract that includes guaranteed raises, affordable health insurance, and a good pension.

In addition to across the board wage increases for the next 4 years, CNA and LPN wage increases and shift differentials are also included.

The facility agreed to increase their contribution to the workers health insurance benefits and to the pension plan.

Employees will now be allowed to sell back 50% of their accrued vacation time.

“We are a small nursing home and we are like family”, 31 year employee Charlotte Bessey Ward Clerk said. “I think the facility understands that when workers are able to take care of ourselves, we do a better job of taking care of each other and providing the quality care that Adirondack TriCounty is known for-it’s a win-win for everyone at the nursing home and in the community.”

Movie synopsis: The largest domestic natural gas drilling boom in history has swept across the United States. The Halliburton-developed technology of "fracking" or hydraulic fracturing has unlocked a "Saudi Arabia of natural gas" just beneath us. But is fracking safe?

Future movies will take place on the third Sunday and fourth Wednesday of each month. October ’s movie will be “Sicko.”

ELIZABETHTOWN — Bridges continue to be the main topic of conversation at the Essex County Department of Public Works.

During the Sept. 17 Public Works Committee meeting, DPW Superintendent Anthony LaVigne said that work has progressed on some bridges, while more have been flagged for potential hazards.

LaVigne started with an update on the Gouchie Bridge in Minerva, which was closed Aug. 16 after receiving a “red flag” from the State Department of Transportation.

LaVigne said that since, a footbridge had been installed by the county to provide temporary access to landowners that needed to access their property on the one-lane road.

The county went out for an emergency bid, which was awarded Aug. 29 to Adirondack Concrete at a cost of $163,512.

“Work began Sept. 10 and the work is expected to be completed by Oct. 12,” LaVigne said.

“Thanks for all of the work on the Gouchie Road Bridge, it has been appreciated,” Minerva Supervisor Sue MontgomeryCorey said.

LaVigne also gave updates on bridges in Au Sable Forks and Lake Placid and roadwork between Westport and Essex.

First Nordic Winter Tune Up set for North Creek, North River Sept. 29-30

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com

NORTH CREEK — It’s the height of leaf-peeping season in the Gore Mountain Region, but many people here have snow on the brain (and wish they had some under their feet).

It’s time for first-ever North Creek and Capital Region Nordic Alliance Winter Tune Up, set for Sept. 29-30 in North Creek and North River.

The event is designed to get the region and its outdoor enthusiasts ready for winter recreation, specifically for Nordic skiing and its disciplines, such as biathlon. The weekend will also feature the Tri States Summer Biathlon Championships.

The Winter Tune Up is the first event of its kind in the region, and a number of accommodations are being made for people with all ranges of physical capabilities.

“It first starts with being intentional about being inclusive,” co-organizer Russ Myer said, “and notifying those agencies that work with the disabled that they are welcome.”

The event is co-hosted by Gore

Mountain and Garnet Hill Lodge. Myer said he hopes the Tune Up will raise interest in Nordic sports — biathlons, orienteering, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing — and bring year-round business to North Creek.

The Nordic tune up is designed for the entire family. Here is the schedule:

Saturday, Sept. 29 •9 a.m.: A roller ski race in the village of North Creek, sponsored by V2 and directed by Greg Malia, Director of the fall roller ski event in Kingston, N.Y. •10-10:45 a.m.: Tannery Pond Community Center. Concurrent presentations include: three-time Winter Olympic Biathlete, Curtis Schreiner; Peter Goodwin, Orienteering USA; Bob Dion-Dion Snowshoes/Mike Busek, USSSA; and Allan Serrano (Janice Sabilia), USSA/NENSA. •11:45 a.m. - 1 p.m.: Lunch, Raffles and Nordic vendors a Garnet Hill Lodge and XC Ski Center (Nordic vendors include High Peaks Cyclery, Nordic Emporium, ToKo, Dion Snowshoes) •1 p.m.: Fun Orienteering, biathlon (.22 cal and paintball) and 5K trail run

at Garnet Hill Lodge & XC Ski Center.

Awards presented at 4 p.m. for events from the art department at Johnsburg High School, dedicated time with Nordic vendors

Sunday, Sept. 30 •Gore Mountain Leaf Cruncher. 1 p.m. A challenging 5K trail run around Gore Mountain’s base area, featuring garnet awards representing each Adirondack season designed by Johnsburg Central School art students. Early online registration for just $15 is available, and all runners receive a Northwoods Gondola Skyride. Call 251-2411, X1008.

•Tri States Summer Biathlon Championships-for biathletes of all abilities, 10 a.m., Garnet Hill Lodge, 50M distance, small/large targets. Sprint event with Rock/Rabbit to follow. Range is located at the Tailings at Garnet Hill a short distance from the XC ski bld.

NFL picking contest Week 3

By Tom Henecker

tom@denpubs.com

I

t seems the Super Bowl Champion New York Football Giants will be messing with my blood pressure again this year. After a dismal start, Big Blue came storming back...and then stumbled...and then came back...and then stumbled...before finally coming away with a much-needed victory over Tampa Bay. Elite Eli overcame a crappy first half with an awesome second half, and one of my favorite Giants, Victor Cruz, redeemed himself after a drop-filled first game while mourning the loss of his grandmother — storybook stuff right there.

As for the Bucs’ BS cheap shot at the end of the game: Totally uncalled for and unsportsmanlike.

With so many weird outcomes, like the Patsies and Cowgirls losing and Indy and Miami winning, our pickers’ results were all over the place. The ultimate Dolfan, Randy LaFountain, led the way with a strong 12-4 week. From there it was a little bit of everything; some people had good weeks, others, not so much. Patrick Allen picked up a game on Chris Fink creating a tie at the top.

I must say I’m not a big fan of having Thursday night games all season this year. I preferred when they started up in November. It doesn’t leave enough time to come down from the weekend football buzz. Still, since the Champs play Thursday, I’ll be watching. It’s going to be another tough test going to Carolina, but the Jints will use the momentum from their record-breaking second half Sunday to put up some more big numbers.

I’m having some difficulty picking a few games this week: Not knowing which Dallas team will show up in Texas, I’m not sure they can beat the Bucs. I also can’t see New Orleans going 0-3 at home to Kansas City, but the Saints are not the same team this year. Baltimore is beat up, but the Patsies Oline might get the Golden Boy killed; and it seems you can’t count Seattle out at home against anybody, even Green Bay. All that said, I’ll reluctantly take the Cowgirls, Saints, Ravens and Packers. I think.

I’ll make one more plea asking you all to use our new online picking form at http://www.newsenterprise.org/contests/football-pickem-contest/ if possible. It saves me a ton of time, and greatly reduces the chances for errors. Still, you can e-mail them to me at tom@denpubs.com; fax your picks to 518-873-6360; or mail them to PO Box 338, Elizabethtown, NY 12932. Be sure to include your FULL name and phone number, and be very clear about who you’re choosing to win each game.

GO BIG BLUE!!!

The sporting season begins

T

he annual autumn migration that is responsible for taking young men, old men and increasingly, a large number of women into the deep woods of the Adirondacks began with the launch of the early bear season on Sept.

15. Following soon after this date is the early archery hunting season for whitetail deer, which begins on Sept. 27 for hunters using last season’s bow tags.

This mix of hunting seasons is soon to be followed by the muzzleloading season for whitetails which begins on Oct. 13, a week prior to the regular big game season which opens Oct. 20.

For bird hunters the ruffed grouse season begins on Sept. 20, followed by the pheasant season on Oct. 1, which follows the annual youth pheasant hunt scheduled for the weekend of Sept. 29-30. Crow season also begins on Oct. 1, as well as the woodcock season. Woodcock hunters must register with NYHIP at 1-888-427-5447.

For information on waterfowl seasons, including ducks and geese, please visit the NYSDEC website at http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife.

Those seeking smaller game such as squirrels have already been at it since the season began on Sept. 1. The coyote season begins on Oct. 1, about a month before the bobcat season begins on Oct. 25 and prior to weasel, skunk, opossum, fox and raccoon season kicks off on Nov. 1.

Tossed into the annual mix of hunting opportunities is the fall turkey season, which runs from Oct. 1-19.

Adirondack hunting in season Hunters had been traveling to the Adirondack region for millenniums, prior to the arrival of Europeans on this continent. However, due to overhunting and improper game management, the region was once nearly devoid of certain game species at a crucial point in its history.

Shortly before the turn of the 20th century, species such as black bear, beaver, wolf, cougar and even whitetail deer were nearly extirpated from the Adirondacks, as a result of hunting practices that included hounding, jacklighting, bounty hunting, crusting and trapping.

However, by 1902 a new era was unfolding as Americans began to redefine their relationship with the natural world. Fortunately, such unsportsmanlike hunting practices were soon halted due to the efforts of early conservationists such as Theodore Roosevelt, William H. H. Murray, John Bird Burnham, Charles Hallock, Col. William Hornaday, George Bird Grinnell and Harry V. Radford. They worked together to ensure the survival and conservation of many native game species.

In 1904, the NYS Fish and Game Commission prohibited beaver trapping and the molestation or destruction of their dams. However, bounties were still being offered for black bear, wolves and cougar. Even though New York Gov. Odell signed a bill in 1904 to protect black bear across the state, the bill exempted Essex County, which paid out bounties for 52 Black Bears in 1906.

The last buffalo and a lost pygmy It was while working as a taxidermist for the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, that Col. William Townsend Hornaday was instructed to collect specimens of American bison for the museum’s collection. Although he eventually collected the required specimens for the Smithsonian; Hornaday was struck by the plight of the buffalo’s near extinction after traveling the west.

He returned to the East and committed himself to saving the massive symbols of The Great Plains of the Wild West, especially in light of the wanton destruction of other species of similarly endless populations such as the Passenger Pigeon, which was declared extinct in 1908.

Eventually, he started a political organization called the American Bison Society of which he was the president, and under his leadership the society began a captive breeding program and created ranges and reserves in the West.

Hornaday began his efforts by penning The Extermination of the American Bison, a book which exposed the wanton destruction of one of the most iconic species in the West. Buffalo were slaughtered in an effort to remove a major source of food, shelter and weapons from the Native People as a part of the strategy of war, which was similar to the 'scorched earth policies' of other conflicts. Buffalo robes were selling for only a dollar, while their bones were used for fertilizer.

In 1913, Hornaday wrote Our Vanishing Wildlife, a book that drew attention to the mindless decimation of wildlife achieved through the use of modern firearms, netting and trapping. Although many of Hornaday’s critics accused him of attempting to end all hunting, that certainly wasn’t his intention. Hornaday loved to hunt, and he had done so all over the globe. His contention as a conservationist was that if limits weren’t put in place, there soon wouldn’t be anything left to hunt.

Although the decade of 1890-1900 was considered the Era of the Great White Hunter, the times were changing rapidly. As one of the leading naturalists of the day and an avowed crusader for wildlife conservation, Col. Hornaday was offered a position as Director of the New York Zoological Park. The opportunity would help him to bring about many pieces of the puzzle. Soon, he was transporting bison by rail to New York, in order to breed the animals in captivity so the offspring

could later be restocked on the Plains.

The New York Zoological Park, also known as the Bronx Zoo, eventually became the New York Zoological Society, which was later renamed the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS).

The WCS continues its mission of protecting and promoting wildlife conservation worldwide. The organization also has an office in Saranac Lake, which has been responsible for numerous regional and international conservation efforts.

Although he was held in high esteem for his conservation efforts, Hornaday was later discredited due to a scandalous exhibit that was hosted under his direction at the Bronx Zoological Gardens. The notorious exhibit featured an African pygmy, known as Ota Benga, who was kept inside the monkey house as an example of a ‘primitive man.’

The display, which was hosted during the summer of 1906 raised questions about natural history and human evolution, Christianity and Darwinism, and it was mixed with a generous dose of Barnumism. The pygmy, Ota Benga, had been purchased at a slave market in the Belgian Congo in 1904 by noted African explorer Samuel Verner, for a display at the St. Louis Worlds Fair. He was later presented to Hornaday for an exhibit entitled the “Amazing Dwarf of the Congo Valley.”

After the New York Times featured a story on the exhibit, Hornaday was ridiculed by members of the local AfricanAmerican clergy who were outraged at the spectacle of a supposed ‘primitive man’ being caged and on display at the Bronz Zoo. Being treated as a curiosity, mocked, and made fun of by the visitors eventually caused Benga to “hate being mobbed by curious tourists and mean children.” Eventually, following the formal protests and continued threats of legal action, Col. Hornaday removed Ota Benga from display.

Benga was later sent to the Howard Colored Orphan Asylum in Lynchburg, Virginia, where he was put to work as a laborer and 'taught ways of civilization'. Sadly, his story ended with a simple byline in the July 16, 1916, New York Times which read, “Ota Benga, Pygmy tired of America; the strange little African finally ended his life at Lynchburg, Va. Once at the Bronx Zoo; his American sponsor found him shrewd and courageous-wanting to be educated.”

After realizing he would never be able to earn enough money to pay for a return trip to the Congo, Benga had stolen a revolver and committed suicide.

DEC announces details for Columbus Day weekend youth deer hunt ALBANY — The Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has confirmed that junior hunters ages 14-15 will be able to hunt deer during a special youth firearms deer season over Columbus Day Weekend this year, Oct. 6-8.

"Implementation of this youth deer hunt is a hallmark moment for New York hunters and represents continued efforts of DEC to engage more young people in nature and outdoor recreation," said DEC Commissioner Joe Martens.

The youth deer hunt will take place Columbus Day weekend in both the Northern Zone and Southern Zone; a youth hunt was not established on Long Island due to restrictions in the Environmental Conservation Law. Junior hunters (ages 14-15) with a big game hunting license will be eligible to take one deer of either sex with a firearm when properly accompanied by a licensed and experienced adult. Junior hunters may use a Deer Management Permit or Deer Management Assistance Program tag for an antlerless deer or, during the youth firearms season only, they may use their regular season tag to take a deer of either sex.

In areas restricted to bowhunting only (Westchester County and parts of Albany and Monroe counties), junior hunters may only use bowhunting equipment to take deer during the youth hunt weekend. "Bowhunting seasons remain open during the youth hunt, but I encourage bowhunters to set your bow aside for the weekend and be a mentor for a youth's first firearms deer hunt," Commissioner Martens stated.

While there is pending legislation that may impact future youth hunts, until it has been acted on, DEC's regulations remain in effect. More details of the Youth Firearms Deer Hunt and rules for junior hunters and their mentors are available at www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/46245.html.

DEC also offers special opportunities for junior hunters (ages 12-15) for waterfowl, wild turkey, and pheasants. See www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/52495.html for information about these other programs.

Alewives, like the one pictured above, were first discovered in Lake Champlain in July, 2004. Columnist Howard Hammond believes some lake users and politicians overreact to the presence of nonnative species.

Concern over invasive species: Fact or fiction?

I

t seems the hot topic in the last few months has been the invasion of non-native species of aquatic plants and fish into Lake Champlain.

To quote the Lake Champlain Basin Program Guide for Aquatic Invasive Species: “The Lake Champlain Basin is home to a number of invasive species that cause economic and ecological harm to our ecosystem.”

I have to ask: what harm? Yes, it is costly to try and rid the eco- sysBy Howard Hammonds tem of a harmful species once it’s established but then what harm is the species causing? Where is the peer reviewed research and long term studies? Just to say nonnative species are harmful or will compete with the existing food chain without some documentation doesn’t seem very scientific. Actually, it seems very irresponsible.

Eurasian Watermilfoil is the most commonly named invasive plant species in Lake Champlain. I am sure milfoil causes problems with the million dollar waterfront houses’ water intake systems or the use of Jet Skis in the shallow flats from the heavy growth. But then again it seems from my years of fishing that where the milfoil grows so does the best fishing occur. Ask any big time pro and he will always say, ”find the milfoil, find the bass.”

A recent survey by Bassmaster Magazine named Lake Champlain one of the top five bass lakes in the USA, that probably wouldn’t have occurred if milfoil hadn’t invaded the lake. One has to pick their poison: the economic benefit of a great fishery or no weeds and no fish. I have witnessed the TVA in the south spend millions of dollars treating the lakes of the south to kill milfoil and hydrilla to protect the million dollar lakefront properties and megawatt hydro-electric plants, and wind up with a limited fish population. Case in point, Fort Loudon Lake in east Tennessee, during the years the lake was polluted with milfoil and hydrilla the bass population thrived, today no weeds and no fish. One can fish all day and maybe get five bites, compared to Lake Champlain where you can catch five bass in five minutes.

Recently, Mark Malchoff of the Lake Champlain Sea Grant spoke before the Essex County Board of Supervisors concerning the possibility of the invasion of other species he finds disturbing, namely hydrilla and the round goby. He gave his opinion that they could cause “economic havoc.” Please bring on the havoc! I recently returned from 10 days of fishing two bass tournaments on the western basin of Lake Ontario, an area filled with hydrilla, milfoil and round gobies. Believe me the bass are bigger and more plentiful than Lake Champlain. There were far more 20-pound sacks of smallmouth brought to the scales by the same fisherman who competed on Lake Champlain three weeks ago. And it’s strange that not once did I encounter any Spiny Waterfleas.

Before you get up in arms about invasive species here are some facts. Brown trout and rainbows are non-native species stocked by the DEC. Lake trout are not natural to the lake and the common carp has been here my entire life. In fact until a few years ago if you bought a fish sandwich at McDonalds it was probably made with common carp meat. There are pluses and minuses to every situation, but before we throw out the bath water let’s make sure the baby isn’t in the tub.

I really tire of the politicians wanting their names in the press by taking a stand that seems popular without the real facts. This great country was shaped by all forms of ecological changes. Some of these non-native aquatic creatures may just improve the fishery.
