Funiciello puts hat into NY-21 race

Warren Supers approve 5-year SNCRR contract

By Pete DeMola

GLENS FALLS — After months of coy statements, Matt Funiciello formally rolled out his campaign for New York’s 21st Congressional District on Saturday.

In his announcement speech at a Glens Falls banquet hall, Funiciello likened the country’s political situation to the cowboy film “Shane” in which a gunslinger’s retirement plans are dashed by a ruthless cattle baron.

“We don’t have to celebrate Jack Palance in �Shane’,” Funiciello said, likening the film’s sociopathic killer to what he perceives as the pitfalls of a two-party system that “still smacks of elitism and ruling class political theater.”

Funiciello joins incumbent Rep. Elise Stefanik and Democratic hopeful Mike Derrick, a retired army colonel from Peru, Clinton County.

The candidate highlighted the country’s foreign conflicts, including the war in Iraq, which is nearing its 13th anniversary on March 20, as one of his chief concerns. It’s an issue that is not being discussed by either candidate, he said. >> See FUNICIELLO | pg. 3

Irish Road bowling breaking records with crowds Participants raise thousands for charitable causes, residents in need

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

INDIAN LAKE — Colorful costumes reflected the spirit of St. Patrick for the Indian Lake’s 11th annual Irish Road Bowling over the weekend.

Organizers had a record turnout, initially anticipating about 200 participants, popularity of the event and great weather brought out 268 people that formed 67 teams.

“It’s really taken off. People really enjoy it,” said Vonnie Liddle, Indian Lake’s events and activities coordinator.

The route took competitors from the end of Pelon Road to the town hall.

Taking top honors in the family division was Fran’s Legacy. The Bi-Polar Rollers won in the women’s division, while Off in the Woods bested the men’s division.

The Trumps took first in the adult mixed category.

Together, participants raised $1,435. Winning teams elected charities where benefits would be

awarded.

A donation of $1,190 went to Team Cameron, helping Cameron Naubereit, 3, an Indian Lake boy battling brain cancer. Another $245 was given to the Wounded Warrior Project.

Irish road bowling is a 300-year old tradition in Ireland brought to Indian Lake based on an idea from a town official more than a decade ago. The object of the game is to roll a 28 ounce road bowl a determined distance in the least amount of rolls.

With the continued growth and success of the event, Liddle said they are sure to bring it back for a 12th year.

ATLAS set to graduate another class, continues to evolve

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Dozens of teens in the Adirondack region have been part of a unique opportunity led by Deb Morris, owner of Barkeater Chocolates, to learn leadership and other skills.

Adirondack Teen Leadership And Service (ATLAS), in addition to leadership, focuses on teambuilding, community service, overcoming obstacles, facing life challenges and learning how to make the most out of limited resources.

Morris, as a member of the Johnsburg Youth Committee, offered classes for youth interested in writing and photography.

“It was fun, but I wanted more,” she said.

ATLAS was born from that desire.

Another 12 students from the most recent class are set to graduate from the program in April, with months of learning behind them.

Montana Berg, a freshman at St. Lawrence University, participated in the program last year as a senior at Johnsburg Central School. She often draws from the skills she learned

in the program. Most notably, said Berg, is the inspiration derived from John Robinson, an Albany man born without arms or legs who speaks around the country about overcoming obstacles.

Each month, the students meet with presenters and facilitators from all over the state and New England, said Morris.

Robinson is always a favorite of the students, based on the surveys she gives out after each session.

Berg admitted she hasn’t had a lot of struggle in her life, though she does think about the lessons Robinson taught.

“I think everyone has thoughts of overcoming obstacles every day,” said Robinson in a phone interview last week. “That’s true whether your in kindergarten or own a successful business.”

Perhaps those lessons can evolve with the students as they grow into adults.

“I don’t just get up and speak about obstacles,” said Robinson of his manner of engaging his audience. “I’m just trying to get you to think about what you are really going through and think about think in a different way.”

When he met with the most recent class, he said, he gave the children a challenge, asking them to write their names with their elbows.

“There’s a physical component, not just mental,” he said. “It makes me think to give them a frame of reference. It’s good to see things outside your circle of friends.”

The students are from ninth to twelfth grade and represent a number of area schools.

Berg said ATLAS offers the opportunity for expanding friendships and connections outside of your own school.

Just as the students evolve during ATLAS sessions, Robinson said he has witnessed growth of the program itself.

“The changes I’ve seen over the years…Deb is getting more engaged people every year. These are students that really want to rise to the top. It’s noticeable,” he said.

Each year, a different service project is chosen by the students. This year’s class chose to help Make-A-Wish Foundation. In December, they raised nearly $1,000 to help terminally ill children receive their wishes.

Applications for the ATLAS Class of 2017 will be available in April. Final student selections will be made in September.

The program is open to any Adirondack high school student.

Previously, students from Minerva, Johnsburg, North Warren and Warrensburg have participated. For more information, find ATLAS on Facebook.

Garnet Lake Road Bridge soil tests may change scope of work

inary soil tests beneath the Garnet Lake Road Bridge did not come back favorably, possibly sending officials back to the drawing board.

A temporary bridge, purchased at a cost of $47,000, was placed adjacent to the structure in December after it was deemed in danger of collapse last fall.

Town Highway Superintendent Daniel Hitchcock

was hopeful the soil would prove suitable for corrugated pile driving, which provide a strong base for footers for a permanent replacement bridge.

“The drilling didn’t go so good,” he said. “We hit boulders the size of cars.”

The failing and temporary structures are so close, they are almost touching, said Hitchcock. That prevents the installation

of the metal as originally planned, as they will not be able to drill through the large rock.

“It means we will probably be looking at a pre-fab bridge,” said Hitchcock.

Supervisor Ron Vanselow was unaware of the results of any testing early in the week, but said he would look into the information when reached by phone.

Decisions on how to

proceed, he said, would depend on conversations with Hitchcock and the engineers.

Original estimates for repairs to the bridge came in at $350,000. The bridge was one of four named needing replacement or extensive repairs over the next year totaling an estimated $750,000.

The temporary bridge was purchased based on es-

timated costs at renting one and fears the project could take longer than anticipated. Poor soil test results were one of those fears. In the long run, said Hitchcock, the bridge will pay for itself as there are several more bridge projects in the future for the town. It is possible the town could also rent the structure to other towns or the county, when not in use.

proval began when Claudia Braymer, Glens Falls Ward 3 Supervisor, suggested tabling the resolution that would have approved a fiveyear continuation of the 10year contract.

Several supervisors had previously voiced concerns at the committee level with the possible storage of oil tankers and whether or not SNCRR had met their requirements in the contract.

Braymer suggested the board should not “rubberstamp it,” but take the opportunity to review the contract, possibly adding language to prevent the storage of oil tankers on the line.

Braymer’s measure garnered support of 9 of 20 supervisors and, with the weighted vote, it was tabled.

When a resolution is tabled, it prevents further discussion, which seemed to be a surprise to some supervisors who still attempted to give an opinion.

Corinth Supervisor Richard Lucia said his community is dependent upon Warren County’s approval of the contract, in which they are also a party. A delay in the contract’s approval could also alter or seriously hinder the railway’s ability to prepare for the season.

It was suggested a vote could put the resolution back on the floor, which then passed easily.

With the opportunity for questions or comments then returned, most supervisors immediately had their hands in the air awaiting their turn.

Ellis addressed the oil tanker issue several times, all with the same answer.

“I’m not putting any oil tankers up there,” he said.

Ellis acknowledged covenants related to his company’s financing prevent him from putting that promise in writing.

Federal law states he can not deny transport of such

cars. Ellis, however, he owns the property in question and as there is no other storage for the cars, there would be no location for oil tankers to go.

Some supervisors argued the contract was not up for discussion to either approve or deny, as it is a 10-year contract with an automatic renewal at the five-year mark.

Others argued the contract needn’t be renewed, as portion of the contract were breached by SNCRR, citing the discontinuation of the ski train.

“We gave him permission not to run the ski train,” said Queensbury Supervisor AtLarge Supervisor Gene Merlino.

Some had previously argued a recreational trail could replace the train line, citing poor ridership on the rails.

County Attorney Brian Reichenbach said, “I believe they’ve met their obligation.”

He added he did not believe the county had the right to terminate the contract based on the railway meeting the standards for renewal.

Horicon Supervisor Matt Simpson said $519,000 in revenue for the county was generated by the railway, guaranteeing $81,000 annually according to the contract, and created 40 jobs.

Hague Supervisor Edna Frasier voiced frustration with supervisors questioning Reichenbach’s legal opinion.

She added that Hague does not see any direct benefit of the trains, however, she supports the measure for other small towns that do, such as Johnsburg.

Johnsburg Supervisor Ron Vanselow thanked Frasier for her support. “I don’t have invasive species,” he said, but that doesn’t stop his support of fighting them in Lake George, or supporting the Civic Center in Glens Falls.

“We all work together.”

Of the 18 supervisors that remained into the afternoon, 15 voted to approve the contract.

Indian Lake school board passes 2016-2017 school budget

By Bill Quinlivan

news@suncommunitynews.com

INDIAN LAKE – During the March Board of Education Meeting the board unanimously adopted a total budget of $6,259,986 for the upcoming 2016 / 2017 scholastic year.

This represents a zero percent increase versus the current school year’s budget. And, with an expected 2016 / 2017 prek through 12-student census of 114, the total budget breaks

down to $54,912 per student.

After accounting for estimated revenues of $1,536,500 (a decrease of $2,500 versus the current year’s revenues), the estimated 2016 /2017 school tax levy sits at $4,723,486, an increase of $2,500 over that of 2015 /2016.

Even with the increase in the estimate, the levy remains very slightly under the tax levy cap of $4,723,496 by $10.

The budget is subject to public vote on Tuesday, May 17 from noon to 8 p.m.

Ryan Mahoney, Indian Lake native and current Executive Director of the Irish American Heritage Museum In Albany and David McNally, Olmstedville native and current Director of Government Affairs and Advocacy for AARP NY, were two of many guests who enjoyed an evening celebrating Irish heritage at the Executive Mansion in Albany Tuesday, March 15.

Funiciello << Continued from | p. 1

“Our foreign policy is what’s preventing us from being quintessentially American,” Funiciello told a crowd of supporters. “It’s preventing us from being Shane.”

Funiciello, who owns a bakery in downtown Glens Falls, garnered 10.6 percent of the vote in 2014 when he came in third to Stefanik, who commanded a decisive 53 percent victory. Democratic candidate Aaron Woolf, an Elizabethtown-based filmmaker, drew 32.5 percent.

Funiciello told the Sun he plans on conducting a “guerilla campaign” in which he will travel to every town in the district before the November election to speak with voters and distribute bread made with New Yorkgrown wheat.

“We want to talk to actual people,” Funiciello said. “We want to get people voting again, regular working class people.”

The candidate has spent the past 15 months organizing the Warren County Green Party, which is now affiliated with the state party.

Two additional candidates announced on Saturday for seats in the state legislature: Steve Ruzbacki will challenge State Senator Betty Little, and Robin Barkenhagen will mount a challenge against Assemblyman Dan Stec.

While the three candidates share similar ideas — the Green Party platform includes a $15 minimum wage, single-payer healthcare and a Green New Deal — the trio will run independently, said Funiciello.

The News Enterprise Sun • March 26, 2016 | 3

Matt Funiciello Funiciello called the newfound energy inspirational. Four years ago, he said, activists considered themselves lucky if five people showed up at a party meeting. Monthly events now draw between 15 and 25, while Saturday’s campaign launch saw 135 counted at the door, he said.

This is the work that needs to be done to build a political party from roots up, Funiciello said, a process he estimated will take seven generations.

The candidate expected interest in the Congressional race will be muted this cycle due to the presidential race.

Funiciello did, however, predict a larger voter turnout and expected those voters would be looking for a third option if former

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a Democrat, and real estate developer Donald Trump, a Republican, win their parties’ nominations.

“I don’t think a lot of [the progressive base] will vote for Hillary,” Funiciello said.

Since New York is a “safe state”, Funiciello asked attendees to vote for Jill Stein, the presumptive Green Party nominee.

Here in the district, Funiciello said Stefanik and Derrick will be competing for the same slice of the electorate.

In his speech, he pre-emptively brushed off spoiler concerns that have dogged the Green Party since 2000 when Ralph Nader ran as the party’s presidential candidate. Democrats continue to believe the consumer advocate’s entry stripped away votes from their candidate, Al Gore, and handed the election to George W. Bush, a Republican.

The country has a long history of movements that have disrupted the status quo, including the end of slavery, he said.

“Let’s build a workers party that cares about human beings,” Funiciello said. “You guys can be the light of all of it.”

The campaign raised $38,000 in 2014. Funiciello said they’re aiming for $100,000 this cycle.

The campaign generated $2,200 on Saturday, according to Peter LaVenia, Funiciello’s campaign manager.

The Green Party does not accept corporate donations. New York State Green Party CoChair Gloria Mattera, who attended the rollout, admitted fundraising poses a perennial challenge.

But having a trio of local candidates who

are known and present in their communities will help, she said.

“I really feel positive about the candidates and how they will touch the voters one by one,” Mattera said.

Funiciello’s opponents welcomed him to the race.

“I enjoyed getting to know Matt Funiciello over the course of the last campaign,” Stefanik said. “And while I disagree with his policy solutions, I welcome Matt Funiciello to the race and look forward to a spirited debate on the important issues facing North Country families and small businesses.”

“I know Matt personally and am looking forward to engaging with him on issues critical to Northern New York,” said Derrick. “I respect his commitment to the working residents of this district and the environment.

Those of us who live here fully understand how working people and the environment are under pressure. While we share some priorities, we will differ on the best way to create positive change for the citizens of this district.”

Funiciello and Derrick face an uphill battle in their efforts to unseat Stefanik.

In January, the national, nonpartisan Rothenberg Report rated the race “Safe Republican.”

“As a young woman in a party known for being full of aging white men, Stefanik has a larger national profile than most freshman members,” read the report. “Democrats are trying to cultivate retired Army Officer Mike Derrick into a top-tier candidate, but he’s not there yet.”

Supreme hypocrisy

f President Obama and Senator McConnell were sincere public servants, they would be speaking directly to each other, discussing realistic ways they could perform their duties, while remaining loyal to their principle beliefs and the American public.

But instead of addressing the issue and speaking directly to each other, they are playing a calculated game of chicken. Sadly this game never ends. It only gets worse and both sides are active players.

Immediately upon the death of Justice Scalia, the president made it clear he would be nominating a replacement. At the same time, Senate Majority Leader McConnell declared the Senate would not consider a nominee deferring to the upcoming election for the new president to make the nomination.

Citing the 1992 speech given by then Senator Joe Biden as grounds for withholding hearings, McConnell is publicly standing firm, setting the table for a showdown with the president and pitting the two parties and the American public against each other.

These transparent public servants are so out of touch with the American public, it’s no wonder they can’t begin to grasp why so many primary voters are willing to turn the nation over to either a confirmed socialist or a real estate developer before letting a lifelong politician back in the White House.

Here is what should be happening behind the scenes: Obama and McConnell should be having private conversations discussing the dilemma they share and the best solutions available to them to address the equally divided court.

The president’s nominee is described as a moderate liberal. Scalia, as we know, was a hardline conservative.

The Republicans seem to be basing their decision to withhold the hearings on the certainty that they will take control of both the White House and the keep control of the Senate this fall. If they do not win both, they run the risk of placing themselves in a far worse position.

Should the Republicans lose both the White House and the Senate, they may find themselves having the current nominee withdrawn and an ultra-liberal nominee put in his place.

Unless our political officials learn to work together instead of calculating ways to obtain complete dominance over each other, no one wins and America loses. The games must stop and conducting the people’s business must come first.

Troubling trends emerging with candidate access

W

e’re coming up on an entire year since the earliest contenders declared their presidential campaigns.

The race for the White House feels like it has gone on forever — because it has.

And we still have just over seven months until it’s all over.

Part of this sense of omniscience is the 24-7 news cycle where the candidates soak up as much coverage as possible — They hold court in post-debate spin rooms, cruise the Sunday news programs, crack jokes on talk shows and give one soundbite after another to the press corp assigned to cover their events.

We, the press, then broadcast, write, remix and analyze all of it ad nauseum.

It’s a vicious cycle: It’s always been fashionable among the professional political set to bash the media (See: Just about every candidate in the 2016 scrum) while also acknowledging they depend on us to disseminate their message to voters.

As such, we live in an uneasy, symbiotic relationship.

Here in New York’s 21st Congressional District, voters will head to the polls this fall to select the North Country’s representative in Washington, D.C. We see an alarming trend already starting to emerge.

Secrecy.

Rep. Elise Stefanik, the incumbent, prides herself on her transparency and access to her constituents.

Surrogates and staffers are always quick to point at her busy schedule — meeting with voters, visiting local businesses, attending ceremonial events — as a sign of her commitment to the district.

We have no doubt Stefanik is committed to her constituents.

Too bad we can’t watch the freshman lawmaker at work in a natural setting.

Most of these events are unannounced and closed to the press.

Stefanik then uses a variety of tools — mainly social media — to connect directly with voters, skirting reporters in the process.

Other events are open. But these are not vehicles in which we see the lawmaker engaged in retail politics, but rather stage-managed events designed for

quick soundbites and controlled narratives.

Perhaps the most organic setting where we can view the lawmaker are the town hall meetings in which Stefanik interacts with her constituents.

But those are closed to the press.

It’s a format that showcases the first-term lawmaker at her best: Bright, well-versed in policy, an engaged listener and able to think fast.

Too bad we can’t report on them.

The reason?

Constituents often discuss private problems, says the rep and her staff.

This was never a problem with Rep. Bill Owens and other politicians we’ve covered.

They simply expected the media to exhibit tact while reporting sensitive info — say, for instance, leaving out names and personal info of constituents who are sharing stories of their problems with the VA and other government institutions.

We don’t attend these events full of “gotcha” questions looking to catch an elected official in a moment of weakness.

And although his campaign is flying under the radar, Democratic hopeful Mike Derrick is beginning to exhibit some of the same characteristics: His campaign lobbied press to cover an event last week, but demanded a significant part of it be off the record.

The trend of declaring entire public events off the record is ridiculous.

An open press is part of the fabric of our country — the open exchange of ideas.

But it becomes tough when our access to candidates is severely limited.

SyrianÊ refugeesÊ areÊ world-wideÊ issue

To the Editor: Our cluster group, Friends of Refugees in the Champlain Valley, in association with the North Country Refugee Collaboration Project, was considerably encouraged with your support of our mission (“Taking in refugees will be good for the Adirondack Park”).

We have made contact with the Vermont Resettlement Program which has been successfully integrating migrants for 25 years.

Secretary of State John Kerry has just publicly declared that ISIS is committing acts of genocide. Of the 20 million citizens of Syria, 10 million are seeking safe asylum.

They have no more homes in Syria; they, in fact, have no more country to return to. Europe is facing destabilization and needs the rest of humanity to reach out.

Those “Others,” those strangers with no assets, no papers, no recommendations, could be us. It’s hard to imagine there being no Red Cross, no federal disaster assistance, no schools for shelters, no hospitals, no cars, radios, cell phones, blankets, pharmacies — no nothing. As Scrooge famously asked in the Christmas Carol, “Are there no work houses?”

No, not even those.

This is not just a Mideast, or European crisis. This is a global disaster that needs us all to give concrete suggestions and help and yes, perhaps even shelter. Shunning isn’t a solution, it is a punishment and there refugees have had enough.

When we see in their faces our own beloved families, then it is harder to turn away.

ResponseÊ toÊ DonÊ Sage

To The Editor: As Troop Commander of New York State Police Troop B, I read with great interest the letter published recently in the Sun Community News by Schroon Town Board member Don Sage. In his letter, Mr. Sage accuses the State Police of harassment, intimidation and entrapment of participants at the annual Schroon Lake Ice Fishing Derby, which was held on the first weekend of March.

I’ll be blunt: There is absolutely no truth to his allegations.

The State Police did not add any extra patrols for the event. We had our regular number of Troopers patrolling in Essex County for the weekend.

Because highway safety is a critically important part of our mission, Troopers patrolled the highways around the lake to ensure the safety of Derby participants and members of the public. The results were not extraordinary, with only two arrests, both for drinking and driving.

The members of Troop B, including myself, take great pride in the fact that we get to live and work in one of the most beautiful areas of our country. We are committed to providing the best possible service to our communities with the utmost professionalism. That commitment extends to ensuring that the events that define the North Country and bring visitors to our region are successful and safe.

I am always available to our residents and community leaders. Please don’t hesitate to contact me at Troop B headquarters with any concerns.

ObamaÕ sÊ debtÊ forÊ theÊ nextÊ generationÊ

To the Editor: One legacy that President Obama has blessed us with, and Hillary and Bernie wish to enhance, is spending, and therefore, debt.

Congress doesn’t seem to mind it either. The recent bipartisan budget deal is $4.3 trillion dollars of spending for which there is only 3.7 trillion of revenue. That’s a $550 billion deficit, which is $1,500 million a day of new debt.

Obama tells us that everything is fine and not to believe the naysayers.

However, the naysayers include the non-political professionals in the Congressional Budget Office, the Office of Management and Budget, and major financial publications who continue to say your debt is very bad.

The budget includes $750 million of free Obamacare for illegal aliens, but 300 fewer border guards. Free smart phones are also being handed out to illegals. The Democrats are currently trying to arrange free lawyers for illegal aliens. Cuba has demanded $100 billion of your cash. Iran was given a boatload of your cash in the form of interest on frozen assets, completely unnecessary. Obama also wants to take Puerto Rico’s debt and make it your debt. North Korea will be talking to the Bank of Obama soon.

All this Obama benevolence just means you and your kids are deeper in debt because nothing’s free. The money is being borrowed on your behalf, which makes you and your children the debtors, not a government that has no money of its own. The debt you are responsible for just blew by $19 trillion dollars and will be over $20 trillion by the time Obama leaves office.

It will have doubled during his eight years. The $10 trillion of debt during Obama’s term matches the total of all the other presidents combined.

Hillary and Bernie are running a classic liberal free stuff campaign. They claim they’ll get the loot needed from Wall Street, but neither Wall Street nor the rich have $1,500 million a day to chip in. It’s a pretend notion that won’t happen. The rich can help, but the Progressive Liberal Income Redistribution Plan (PLIRP)will ultimately involve the middle class, as Obamacare has already proven. It will come back to you debtors to cover the free stuff, the debt, and PLIRP. You and your children. Oh, by the way, you’ll need to borrow $63,000 for each Syrian refugee and/or Islamic terrorist that Obama relocates to your neighborhood, none of whom properly vetted.

Someday soon your government, or other governments, will require you to pay the debt you owe. It’s currently $60,000 for each of us, including the kids. I wonder what the kids will think as they realize what’s been done to them? You won’t have to send in a check for 60K, but higher taxes will come for the 50 percent that pay taxes and your 401k/IRA’s will be fair game; it’s already been proposed.

InternetÊ anÊ amazing,Ê essentialÊ tool

To the Editor: Whether we like it or not, the internet is rapidly becoming a necessary part of life. I recently had an experience that provides a prime example of how life can be improved by this amazing tool. I, frankly, couldn’t have even considered at home in Essex County.

I was out of town recently and developed a debilitating sinus infection.

Because I had access to the internet, the option of having a virtual consultation with a physician was suddenly an option. I logged in, provided my credit card (for the $40 fee) and after a 15 minute video appointment with the doctor, I went to a local pharmacy to pick up my prescription.

These types of internet applications are going to become more prevalent in the way we live and access services. It is hard to comprehend that in many communities within the Adirondacks, there is antiquated internet access (or in some neighborhoods such as mine, none).

If we want to maintain a decent quality of life, attract visitors, encourage businesses to be established or have citizens move within the Blue Line, it is imperative that everyone has decent access to this amazing tool.

COMMENTARY

TakingÊ inÊ refugees:Ê PoliticallyÊ correctÊ orÊ justÊ naive?Ê

Little Bits

To the Editor: I read your editorial re: “Taking in refugees will be good for the Adirondack Park.”

I can only conclude that you on the editorial board are either trying your hardest to be politically correct or you are incredibly naive.

Let’s take a look at your “common sense” reasoning.

First, jobs. You state that immigrants don’t share the mindset of being on public assistance. The Center for Immigration Studies has found that 49% of “legal” immigrants receive some form of public assistance compared to 30% of natural born citizens. The percentage for “illegal” immigrants is even higher. You state businesses can’t find employees. The unemployment rate in the Adirondacks is 10.2%. (Largely, I believe, as a result of the APA’s restrictive intrusion on homeowners and businesses.) The average for New York State is 5.7%. Yeah, that’s what we need… more people looking for work.

Second, schools. You seem to think that importing Muslims will help build up the school systems throughout the area. I live downstate. My wife is a school teacher in NYC. I can assure you of this. More and more private and charter schools are opening up down there. Why? The more “immigrants” the public school system is forced to absorb, the more parents are trying desperately to get their kids out.

Third, diversity. You need look no further than Dearborn, Michigan where the city voted, under pressure from the Muslim community, to allow Sharia law. That’s great if you agree with the death penalty for not believing in Allah or a woman getting stoned to death for having sex out of wedlock. Or how about Cologne, Germany, where 1,000 women were assaulted, sexually and physically, on New Years Eve by hoards of Muslim men. Or, how about Marseille, France, which is now called the “most dangerous city in Europe” because the 40% Muslim population has completely taken over the city. If you happen to be non-Muslim, you can’t even walk the streets without being harassed or assaulted.

While I totally understand feeling badly for the refugees, especially the women and children, reality sometimes gets in the way. This country is $19 trillion in debt. The infrastructure is falling apart. Jobs are disappearing.

And you (and the North Country Refugee Collaboration Project) want to take on more? Really?

Bill Bendel, Chestertown/Long Island

GoodÊ olÕ Ê boysÊ shakingÊ inÊ theirÊ boots

To the Editor: Find it strange that Donald Trump instills so much fear in the Republican leadership.

He’s not what they wanted, nor did they expect him to succeed.

Why do they hate him more than a Democrat whose desire is to destroy personal rights granted by the constitution or a democratic socialist who is preaching class warfare as did Karl Marx, Trotsky and Adolf Hitler?

The answer is very simple: Donald Trump is the first presidential candidate in the history of the United States who was not groomed and primped and led by the “Good Old Boys in the Back Room” and the public loves it.

Because there is a candidate who does not “shut up, toe the line and do as you’re told.”

Boehner can’t control him. Mitch McConnell can’t control him. The “Good Old Boys in the Back Room” are scared stiff because he might upset their plans for running the country. And now, the DNC is starting to fear him because Democrats who are not happy with what the “Democratic Good Old Boys in the Back Room” have been doing, are turning to Trump.

And he might upset their plans.

It’s unreal. I’ve been involved in politics at one level or another since my birth. My father was a town supervisor when I was born. As far back as I can remember, the public has complained about them darn politicians and the shady backroom deals. And now that we have somebody who might, and I repeat might, not be part of the darn politicians and their shady backroom deals, we’re scared.

We listen to John Boehner and Mitch McConnell and the rest of the “Good Old Boys in the Back Room” tell us what an evil man Donald Trump is and we freaking believe them.

Think about it.

We quiver in our beds in fear of Donald Trump because the Democratic and Republican Party leadership, that we all hate and distrust, tell us to quiver in our beds in fear. We can’t make up our minds because we would rather be shafted by a system we know will shaft us, than take a chance on something different.

In closing, I want to remind everyone that the Republicans used to gnash their teeth and wring their hands and yes, quiver in their beds in fear because they were the minority in the Congress and President Obama could do pretty much as he pleased. Just in case you didn’t know it, after gaining control, our Republican Congress votes in favor of the president’s bills more often now than before when it was a minority.

Silly sap stories Gordie Little

Columnist

I

t’’s time for a few silly sap stories. Pardon the alliteration, but I wrote this on St. Patrick’s Day and that always makes me silly. The Little ancestors migrated from the Scottish Highlands to Northern Ireland in the 17th century and thence to America in 1848.

The transition into spring unlocks the cobwebs of my mind.

Poignant memories bubble up and I’m blessed to retrieve some of them at this time of year.

I can’t recall the first time I tasted maple syrup, but I would guess I was about 8 when we moved to Carthage from downstate. Sugar on snow came a bit later at age 12 in Massena Center. Don’t know what that is?

Google it.

At 13, I was working in a huge sugar bush. The owner was about 6 feet 4 and I was a foot shorter.

I was tasked with following him as he shouldered an odd-looking gasoline motor with an auger used to drill tap holes. I carried the taps and drove them into each hole.

Easy, you say? Not for me, wading through deep snow with my stubby legs as I tried to keep up with him, was a challenge I never faced before or since. But, I stuck it out. His wife was an excellent cook and her stick-to-the ribs kitchen concoctions made it all worthwhile.

I have no idea how many trees he tapped, but I understand his sugar bush was one of the largest in the area at that time. By today’s standards with endless miles of plastic tubing, pumps and modern equipment, it would no doubt pale by comparison.

A bit later, in Moira, we had several tall maples in the front yard. My mom allowed me to gather sap and boil it down on her ancient kerosene stove in a copper boiler. It seemed to take forever, but the end product was to die for, especially with waffles made on our cast iron stove-top waffle maker.

I often sampled the sap right out of the buckets and loved it, but never dreamed it would someday become a commercial product on its own. My mother always warned that drinking too much of it would turn my stomach and digestive system into a growling nightmare that would keep me on the throne, if you know what I mean.

My best friend in high school was Theron Rockhill who lived on a small farm outside of town.

We loved to ride bareback on his work horses around an abandoned race track. We also enjoyed many hours in his sugar shack, boiling maple sap over a wood fire. Those were the days.

What’s up with that new product you can find on your grocery shelves these days? From what I hear, it’s pure maple sap, straight from the trees to you. Chill it and chug-a-lug. Why didn’t I think of that?

Easter egg hunt draws 150 More than 5,000 eggs hidden for event at Minerva Central

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

MINERVA — Diane and Steve Colletti, owners of It’s About Thyme, surpassed their goal by 1,000 and set a new record over the weekend, getting more than 5,000 Easter eggs onto the field at Minerva Central School.

“It was wonderful. It went smoothly and everyone was happy,” said Colletti on Monday.

The idea came after a not-so-great experience for her son, now a teenager, at a similar event. In that instance, the children were lumped together at the start, leaving the little ones with no eggs to find.

Colletti decided to create an egg hunt on her own, with more than enough eggs to go around. The hunt starts with the participants spread out around the field, single file, with bigger items in the center to attract the older children.

The Colletti’s host the event for the public for free, giving out a spectacular amount of gifts and prizes. This year, more than 150 children showed up.

In addition to the eggs, over 100 baskets were awarded.

There are goodie bags for every child that doesn’t win another prize.

The jelly bean count winner took home a prize for a close guess — 4,500 for the jar filled with 4,331. “I counted every one of them myself,” said Colletti.

This year, three bikes went to excited participants, and a tablet was a coveted item for the teen prize.

Adults don’t go empty handed, either, with flowers and gift baskets for them, as well.

As if the Colletti’s needed anything else on their plate, the hunt was conducted as they were preparing to open their business for another season on April 29.

From then on, they’ll be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., seven days a week.

Colletti has added a line of hand-blown glass items, all her own creation.

They’ll wrap up the 2016 season with fall events including cider, doughnuts and wagon rides on the weekends. Like the Easter event, the couple offers it all for free.

“It’s really something my grandmother would have done. I guess I get it from her,” said Colletti. “It’s really for the kids. I just want everyone to be happy.”

State hoops championships a family affair for Stahls Steve, John and Joe all participate in NYSPHSAA championship weekend

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

GLENS FALLS — Standing atop the rows of fans at the Glens Falls Civic Center March 12, Steve and John Stahl watched as the Class C championship game played out.

While Steve was wearing what one who just watched his nephew, Joe, play in the Class D championship game would usually wear, John was dressed in a suit and tie, because he had work to do.

All three were involved in the NYSPHSAA basketball championships the weekend of March 11-13, with John officiating a boys semifinal March 11 and the Class B championship March 12, both in Glens Falls.

His cousin, Joe, played in the championships for Moriah, while John’s father, Steve, officiated games at the girls championships in Troy.

“It means a lot having been here so many years with my dad — it’s special,” said John about officiating his first games at the pinnacle of state hoops. “With my father refereeing for so long

and at the state level, I wanted to follow in his footsteps, and I could not have asked for a better role model.”

Prior to returning to the North Country as a member of the southern board of referees this season, John has also been officiating games in the Syracuse area, also having been on the whistle for numerous Division III college games.

“I enjoy the camaraderie with the other officials and everyone else who is there for the same reason,” he said. “I have also enjoyed working more with my dad and uncle Jimmy (Stahl, Joe’s father).

“It’s great to see your son officiating for the first time at the final four,” Steve said. “He is a better official in his way than I ever was.”

While John is just getting started as a “big game” official in high school, Steve worked his eighth final four between Glens Falls and Troy.

“I got to officiate some very good teams from Section X in Canton and Huelveton,” Steve said.

However, he made sure he was able to make the trip from the Class D girls semifinals Saturday back to the Civic Center for John’s game at 7:15 p.m., having also attended his first game, a Class C semifinal.

Before the game, Steve said he offered John advice.

“I told him to listen to the more experienced officials and what they have to say,” Steve said. “As far as the game, I told him to do what he has done all year, because that is what got him noticed and to this point.”

While Steve and John Stahl worked the sidelines over the weekend, Joe Stahl was also hard at work as a member of the Moriah Vikings varsity boys basketball team, who overcame a 16-point deficit in the semifinals before falling to Oriskany in the Class D title game.

“It has been a great experience to come here and play for the past two seasons,” Joe said. “Then getting to watch my uncle and Johnny ref some games has been pretty cool.”

Joe’s father, Jim, has been behind the whistle for a quartet of championship weekends in Troy.

“It has been a nice time for the family for almost 30 years now,” Jim said. “We have had the chance to officiate and watch our kids play. Now, to see Johnny come down and work his first final four is amazing.”

And, while Joe Stahl still has two years left as a member of the Vikings, someday you may see him roaming the sidelines of Troy or Binghamton, as well.

“I might consider it,” Joe said of his hoops future beyond a playing career. “Everyone in my family, including my mom (Val), has done it, so it’s kind of become a family tradition.”
