State soothes skittish Adirondack officials on broadband process

As universal broadband deadline comes into focus, locals pressuring state to deliver

LAKE PLACID — The long road to universal broadband coverage in the state begins and ends in Lake Placid.

It’s been two years since Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul traveled to the Olympic Village to introduce the ambitious plan to fully wire the state with high-speed internet by the end of 2018.

“This is like being in the room when they decided to fund the Erie Canal,” Hochul said to a rockstar-like reception.

The state has pledged up to $500 million, which will be leveraged with private investment through three rounds of grant funding, the last of which will open for bids later this spring.

Officials from the state Broadband Program Office (BPO) returned to Lake Placid last week to brief local officials on their progress. But the mood was far less celebratory, and officials were greeted by skeptical town supervisors in a half-empty ballroom.

The good: The state has already allocated $266 million, a number that reaches $344 million when paired with private funds. Ten North Country counties have seen $40 million in direct state investment, providing service to a collective 17,064 households, many of whom had viewed broadband as an unobtainable fantasy.

Once-dead zones have flickered to life, and what was once unthinkable — like streaming video — flicker from remote homes down country lanes.

Commitments as a result of the first two phases — the most recent round of grants was announced last month — will result in 98 percent of the state receiving speeds of up to 100 megabytes per second or higher, according to the BPO. State and local officials agree that the service is critical for the region’s economic livelihood, and stories abound about students and local businesses who must piggybank on public hotspots for vital access.

But more than two-thirds of eligible households in the 12-county district await the service: According to the BPO, 36,828 households fall short of the 100 mbps tar-

get — about 59 percent of them in the Tri County area.

As they attempt to mop up the remaining areas, state officials say they remain fully committed to the project despite its hiccups — including delayed grant reimbursements, faulty U.S. census maps and anxiety by local officials that the remote homes along the socalled “last mile” may be left out.

“Two-thirds of the town of Dannemora does not receive internet,” said Dannemora Supervisor Bill Chase. “We’ve got 1,500 homes in the town.”

LocalÊ bizÊ buoyedÊ overÊ Boreas-relatedÊ grants

NEWCOMB — The Nature Conservancy pledged to provide $500,000 in grant funding for small businesses last May when they inked the deal to sell Boreas Ponds Tract to the state.

The funds, said the nonprofit, would help small businesses accommodate the anticipated influx of visitors scrambling to experience the lands that had been under private ownership for over a century.

Now one dozen local businesses and nonprofits across the Upper Hudson received those funds last week as part of a competitive microenterprise grant program, including outfits in Long Lake, Indian Lake, Newcomb, North Hudson and Newcomb.

The ADK Trading Post in Long Lake received $28,882 for new equipment and to market the year-round popular general store on Route 30, just north of downtown.

“We’re going to increase our inventory of outdoor supplies, and we’re pretty excited,” said Vickie Sandiford, owner.

Five years after opening the business, some of their kitchen equipment is dated and needs to be replaced, Sandiford said.

A new panini board will aid during peak season when the hotspot doles out thousands

of sandwiches the old-fashioned way — as will a new outdoor tent designed to shield hungry visitors.

“We’re hoping Boreas Ponds adventurers will stop,” Sandiford said.

So does Morningside Camps and Cottages, located adjacent to the Minerva Town Beach, who hopes their $30,255 award will aid in facilitating more themed events — especially during shoulder seasons.

“We’re trying to become a venue in addition to a resort,” said Manager David LaBar. Ideally new equipment — tables, chairs and cooking equipment — will cut down in expenses, and will help in hosting more festivals, weddings and festival-type events, like arts and crafts fairs.

“It’s a seed,” LaBar said. “It’s a catalyst that’s going to help me.”

LaBar said once people visit the region and see firsthand what it has to offer — including Boreas Ponds — they will return.

“We’re trying not only to bring them here, but connect (visitors) to the features and assets it has,” he said.

Michael Lenhart, of Yogi-Bear’s Adirondack Jellystone Park in North Hudson, said the funds will fill a much-needed gap in overnight lodging infrastructure. >> See BOREAS | pg. 5

MILESTONES: Simon Gardner and Debbie Palmatier, two veterans of the Minerva Volunteer Fire Department & Rescue Squad, recently completed the training necessary to become Advanced Emergency Medical Technicians. After a half-year of classes and state testing, the new level will allow Gardner and Palmatier to start IVs and administer IV fluids, provide emergency medications, and perform endotracheal intubation.

Lawsuit over Shaw Road to be settled Cash Settlement between owner, town

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — A long-standing legal dispute between a local landowner and the town of Lake George was resolved this week as the town board approved a cash settlement.

On April 10, the Lake George town board voted to accept a payment of $4,000 from Salvador to settle litigation against him for damage caused to Shaw Road Extension by his logging activities during years prior to 2013.

The town highway superintendent and zoning officer had determined in 2013 that timber harvesting by Salvador had caused depressions in the road, and the town initiated a lawsuit against him in September 2013 to recover $14,000 in damages plus legal fees.

Shaw Road branches off from Flat Rock Road, situated between Lake George and Diamond Point.

Shaw Road is townowned, and Shaw Road Extension is privately owned.

Town officials contended that the damage was caused by logging trucks that were too heavy for the roadway.

In 2013, a contractor estimated repairs to the road to cost $14,255, but Salvador sought assurances that

he would not be paying for more than the actual damages the logging activity had caused.

Salvador is considered a government watchdog, frequently attending meetings of the towns of Queensbury and Lake George as well as Warren County, questioning various governmental actions — urging municipalities to follow specific provi-

sions of state and local laws.

Monday, Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson said that the $4,000 to be obtained through the settlement would be enough to pay for repairs.

“Wee made an offer that we thought was more than equitable, and he accepted it,” Dickinson said.

Young girl wrestler honored by Lake George officials

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — The Village of Lake George’s annual meeting started off with a bang April 3 as Elizabeth Fram, whacked the table with the gavel.

Elizabeth, 8 years old, had just been named “Assistant Mayor” for the day — which brought a smile to her face — Just a few week earlier, she had predicted she’d someday be mayor of the village she loves.

Mayor Robert Blais honored her at the meeting, primarily because she won a state championship in youth wrestling by placing first in a recent tournament that hosted 1,460 competitors.

Elizabeth Fram won first place for all female youth wrestlers born from 2008 through 2011 weighing between 55 and 58 pounds in the tournament, sponsored by the New York Wrestling Association for Youth and held March 19 at Oneonta Community College.

During the 2017 season up through April 3, Elizabeth had accumulated a 29-3 record in wrestling, primarily against young male opponents.

Elizabeth Fram broke into a broad smile when she was asked how her wrestling career began.

She said that when she was five years old — learning gymnastics and a member of a youth cheerleading squad — a wrestling coach passed

out flyers for the youth wrestling club in Glens Falls, and she decided to try it out.

“I thought I was interested, and I wanted to do it,” she said with a grin.

“She then took to wrestling like a fish to water,” her mother Laura Fram added, noting that Elizabeth’s workouts in gymnastics and cheerleading — both unusual for boys — had provided her with agility and “situational awareness” vital for wrestling competition.

Beginning at age five, she started training with the Drillmasters School of Wrestling in Butler, N.J. Among her coaches there were Gene Mills, twice a national champion and named an All-American wrestler four times. She currently is coached by Ron Jones, a two-time All-American who coached wrestling at Rutgers University for six years.

Elizabeth’s first year wrestling, she won two matches but lost 13, but she didn’t quit — her love of the sport prompted her to keep training for three more years.

She is involved in both club wrestling and the youth team sponsored by Glens Falls school district.

April 2, she wrestled in preliminary matches held by the mid-Atlantic Wrestling Association, and she qualified to compete in a 17-state tournament.

Her wrestling accomplishments are particularly impressive, considering that as a very young child she was diagnosed with a bone tumor and had lengthy medical treatment and physical therapy — which is what brought her to Glens Falls originally.

Academically, she is outstanding, Laura Fram reports, citing that she studies mathematics and

reading far beyond her grade level, and that at age 4 Elizabeth taught herself to speak Spanish utilizing an online course. She now speaks Spanish at a high school level, her mother said.

Elizabeth has also delved into community service. She’s organized a campaign to collect and redeem returnable containers go raise money for the Open Door Mission in Glens Falls. This effort started years ago when her first-grade teacher suggested Elizabeth and her classmates take on projects that would “change the world,” Laura said. The assignment prompted Elizabeth to begin a routine of picking up garbage around Lake George — to both help the environment and aid people in need through the Open Door Mission.

Elizabeth then convinced various restaurants, taverns and the Lake George Fire Dept. to save their cans for her campaign to help others.

As for her prediction that she’d someday be mayor of Lake George, she wrote in an essay — published in the Glens Falls Chronicle — that she wanted to help create a future in which people were less dependent on computers, they’d have devised cures for diseases, and wars would be non-existent.

Elizabeth Fram, 8, slams a gavel on the table April 3 to start the Lake George Village Board’s annual meeting, as Mayor Robert Blais observes. Blais named Elizabeth “Assistant Mayor of the Day” for her various accomplishments. Elizabeth is a state champion youth wrestler who excels academically and is committed to community service.

Lake George cleanup days approaching this month

LAKE GEORGE — The town of Lake George is asking local property owners to do their part in tidying up the municipality.

The annual town of Lake George Spring Clean-Up effort, involving the curbside pickup of brush, is to be held from Monday, April 24 through Friday, May 26 — a week longer than in recent years Town highway workers will pick up brush tied in bundles so

that one man can handle them, and no longer than eight feet long. Branches must be no more than 3 inches in diameter.

Leaves do not have to be bagged, but if they are, a paper biodegradable bag must be used. Curbside pickup of brush will end May 26.

The bags and piles of yard waste must be free of rocks, stones and debris — they will not be picked up if they contain these items.

There will be no curbside pickup of solid refuse such as appliances or furniture.

After May 26, brush and leaves may be taken by residents to the town Transfer Station, located on Transfer Road. Town employees thank residents for their cooperation.

DEC: Frontier Town project needs to be completed ‘ASAP’ As pieces rapidly fall into place, state brass say Gateway to the Adirondacks project is critical in continuing to drive visitation to the Adirondack Park

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH HUDSON — While the state can often be opaque, little ambiguity exists when it comes to their plans to transform Frontier Town into what they hope will be a regional tourism powerhouse.

“We have a team in place and are working on implementation faster than we’ve moved before,” state Department of Environmental Conservation Executive Deputy Commissioner Kenneth Lynch told local officials at a conference last week.

Even as the state budget hung in limbo — several high-profile policy initiatives were stalled as lawmakers negotiated with the governor before a deal was reached late-Friday — a series of Frontier Town-related developments firmly thudded into place.

The first was the inclusion of up to $32 million in last week’s budget extender, part of $16.4 billion in economic development funding statewide.

The funds, peeled from the DEC’s Adventure NY program, cemented the plan to transform the deteriorating former wild west theme park into a tourist hub that includes camping and cottages, a visitors center and a brewery, among other amenities, alongside the Schroon River.

Several days after the extender was passed, the Nature Conservancy rolled out $500,000 in small business grants, part of a sweetener hammered out last May when the group sold the Boreas Ponds Tract to the state.

The parcel is anticipated to boost visitation to the southern High Peaks once state agencies announce a recreational plan later this year, and the grants are intended to help small businesses position themselves to accommodate the influx of visitors.

Over 11,000 public comments were registered during last winter’s public comment process.

“We anticipate the Agency Board will deliberate on the classification package this spring,” said Keith McKeever, a spokesman for the Adirondack Park Agency.

Essex County last week received $121,618 from a separate funding stream to facilitate the assessment process for the 290-acre Frontier Town site — including studies of ground water systems and the ecological landscape along surveys to determine the water and sewer demand for the proposed project site.

North Hudson Supervisor Ron Moore said the county is working with the state to nail down conservation easements before the state takes ownership of the parcel.

Moore said it’s important for the town to retain lifetime ownership of their sand pits and to ensure logging rights.

A network of recreational trails also runs through 240 town-owned acres.

“The ultimate goal is the property will be transferred to the state in a conservation easement,” Moore said.

And in anticipation of increased traffic for both projects, the state Department of Transportation commenced work to repair the Northway bridge over the Branch River at Exit 29 last week— the main entry point to both Frontier Town and the Boreas Tract.

The $2.4 million repair project, slated to be completed at the end of the year, includes replacing bridge joints and highway guardrail, repairing concrete and repaving the road.

The recent flurry of activity follows nearly two decades of inactivity since the theme park closed in 1998.

Lawmakers debated for years over what to do with the parcel, which they seized over unpaid taxes, and even engaged in lengthy litigation with a neighboring landowner over its purchase at a tax sale in 2014.

Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism CEO James McKenna told Essex County lawmakers the rest of the state is following the project very closely.

“I think it’s going to be a long-term major benefit from across the region,” McKenna said. “From the tourism point of view, it certainly puts us in a very good position.”

Now that the state is firmly at the rudder, Lynch said the Frontier Town project is the proof in the pudding that underscores the commitment by Gov. Andrew Cuomo and DEC Commissioner Basil Seggos to ensuring Adirondack investment.

“That went from a concept, a high level master plan last month, to a real project that needs to be completed ASAP,” Lynch said. “We’re hitting the ground running.

“We’re really looking forward to real results quickly.”

whether it be through the final phase of grants or through another vehicle.

“Everything that is underserved in the entire state is available for bidding,” said Jeffrey S. Nordhaus, executive vice president of innovation and broadband at Empire State Development. “Every census block has a designated amount of support attached to it.”

The final round of some $220 million has been paired with an additional accelerant, $170 million in federal funds awarded to the state by the Federal Communications Commission.

While the North Country’s rugged terrain has provided unique challenges as the state attempts to tackle a project without precedent — if successful, New York will be the first state to have universal broadband coverage — perhaps one of the most vexing is determining which areas are actually served.

Local officials have long said the U.S. Census Bureau maps used by the state to stitch together the reverse auctions for bidders are inaccurate and may leave people out because they represent those areas as already being wired.

“My extreme belief is they are operating on extremely flawed data,” said Essex County Board of Supervisors Vice Chairman Shaun Gillilland, a long-time critic of the program.

Gillilland knows from experience: His own home is listed as served — not an uncommon refrain from officials across the North Country, many of whom rely on spotty DSL or satellite service, as Gillilland does.

Others have said the maps show state forestry roads, or abandoned farmhouses, as served.

But in Willsboro, a largely seasonal economy where single country lanes separate neighbors included in grant packages from those who are left out, this distinction is important, Gillilland said.

Nordhaus admitted the maps can be inaccurate as a result of their “one served, all served” format.

“We know it’s imperfect, so it’s important for communities to understand where there is service, and where there is not service,” he told officials.

He added: “If there’s an error, we’ll correct it.”

CHARTER MERGER The mapping is just one concern that has local officials questioning if the state can deliver on its promises.

Another is their ability to wrangle in telecom giants like Verizon and Charter.

The former has declined to participate in the program to date, which means another provider will have to overbuild on their service area, an expensive prospect, and

The Sun NE/AJ • April 15, 2017 | 5

not always an attractive one for local providers wary over entering a larger competitor’s market.

Charter’s penchant for privacy has sparked concerns over where exactly they will build out as part of last year’s merger with Time Warner Cable.

As part of that $70 billion agreement, the state Public Service Commission required what is now the nation’s second-largest cable provider to improve broadband access for 145,000 rural and low-income households by 2020.

The requirement, which has a price tag of $300 million, requires them to hit benchmarks every year.

While the telecommunications giant is in the process of digitizing networks for legacy customers, Charter is not required to disclose their current or planned service areas under a confidentiality clause: the Connecticut-based provider claims that information is proprietary.

The areas where Charter will not build out are available for bidding: the state BPO has that information; local officials do not.

As they continue to fend off inquiries from their constituents, local officials say they are in a holding pattern when it comes to seeing which remaining areas may be served by these expansions.

The lack of clarity has resulted in some degree of sleuthing: Supervisors are now relying on a process of reverse divination by examining the areas already served, and trying to retroactively trace the areas that may be eventually included — particularly those final stretches upon which work is increasingly expensive.

“I think I’m going to be left in the dark in one corner of my town,” said Adirondack Local Government Review Board Chairman Jerry Delaney, who also serves as a town councilman in Saranac in Clinton County. “I’m concerned we will not be able to get the coverage that Charter plans to get buildout for.”

Delaney tried in vain to determine which remaining areas in his community will be covered.

But details remain elusive, and concerns are mounting as the lists of willing providers winnows ahead of the Aug. 15 application deadline.

While grateful that the state pushed Charter on expanding their coverage area, “I’m pretty frustrated with the information we can have about Charter,” Delaney said.

The confidentiality has also sparked tension that local providers cannot expand into those areas at the risk of violating non-compete agreements.

“Charter is holding them hostage,” Chase said.

Mohawk Networks, a Bombaybased provider, is now working with localities across Clinton County to survey possible installation areas.

“It does impact us greatly,” said

Boreas << Continued from | p. 1

The campgrounds received $31,423 for a new prefabricated bunkhouse and equipment to serve excursion groups along the Schroon River.

“We expect a lot of large family groups, and many diversified types of groups,” Lenhart said of the upcoming influx into Boreas.

The bunkhouse will also serve transient populations — like utility crews and tree trimmers — as they touch down for week-long jobs in the region.

“We get a lot of demand for this,” Lenhart said.

Improvements at the Masten House Fine Lodging and Retreat Center, a historic mansion located in the Upper Works Historic District in Newcomb, will also aid in lodging.

The funds will allow the upgrade of the caretaker’s house on the property, among other measures designed to make the historic facility more equipped to serve as a new overnight inn, group retreat and conference destination, said Paul Hai,

Brenna Susice, a spokeswoman on Charter’s confidentiality.

Charter’s next 90-day implementation plan is due May 18, 2017.

“We are currently engaged in an extensive and thoughtful review of areas across upstate NY that lack access to our state-of-the-art broadband, TV and voice services,” said Andrew Russell, a Charter spokesman, in an email. “As part of this process, we are pleased to work with interested parties to review potential deployment opportunities, and will continue to do so.”

“The town board will do everything we can to ensure no area in Saranac is left out during this process,” Delaney said.

SLOW SPEEDS The project has also thrust into the spotlight existing problems with the broadband providers currently serving the North Country.

As the state continues to dole out grants, stakeholders question if the providers themselves can deliver on their promises.

Frontier Communications received $7.3 million in funds last month for service expansions to Black Brook, Ausable, Jay and Newcomb.

But subscribers in places like Indian Lake, Chesterfield and Wilmington have long complained that Frontier’s service is slower than advertised.

“I continue to receive complaints weekly about people paying for service from Frontier and not getting it, and then when they try to resolve it, it goes nowhere,” said Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston, who represents Wilmington.

Preston said he personally filed a complaint with the state Attorney General’s Office against Frontier for charging people for services they are alledgedly not receiving.

And in his town’s quarterly newsletter, he encouraged residents to contract the state office themselves.

“The AG is taking action against Charter for poor service, and the service with Frontier is far worse,” Preston wrote, referring to Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s lawsuit against the provider, which was filed in January.

Frontier Communications did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment on the allegations.

NEW FRONTIER? Local officials are also bedeviled by the snafus as part of the effort’s predecessor, Connect NY. While that program was ultimately successful in wiring some of the state’s most remote areas — including much of Hamilton County, which does not even have a permanent traffic light — other areas are patiently awaiting service nearly five years after a provider received grants, but stumbled over a series of roadblocks, including North Hud-

son, Schroon, Minerva and Newcomb in southern Essex County.

“The irony is that the fiber runs through town,” said Newcomb Supervisor Wes Miga.

Miga said he was confident the town would receive service now that they’ve been included in two proposals.

But Chase, the Dannemora supervisor, had a more dim outlook, citing the stalled Lyon Mountain Broadband and Bellmont North Next Generation Broadband projects, a combined $1.9 million effort that would provide service to those communities.

“It’s not fair to the towns involved in the program,” he said.

The state said they have made policy changes to both expedite grant disbursements and to ensure providers must have the capital necessary to move the projects forward once the bids have been awarded.

“We made dramatic improvements and changes to the Broadband Program Office since that time,” Nordhaus said. “(Providers) have to be fully funded.”

Officials across the region are closely keeping an eye on that provider, Slic Network Solutions, particularly as they have continued to receive funds, including $3.7 million last month for a project in Keene (Slic did not receive funding in the first phase).

Nordhaus defended the state’s progress, citing the groundbreaking nature of the initiative.

“No one has ever done this before,” he said.

Like other officials smarting over the snags, North Hudson Supervisor Ron Moore remained skeptical.

“Four years later, not a cable has been laid,” Moore said.

Moore has reason to be nervous: His town, while home to just 240 year-round residents, is also the epicenter of another ambitious state effort: The $32 million project to transform the Frontier Town theme park into a regional tourism hub, and one that is reliant on cuttingedge technology.

The long-delayed broadband project would have wired those parcels, which now only have DSL service provided by Verizon — the same company sitting out the program, and who have not committed to Round 3.

“We don’t have it now, and we will need to have it by the time Frontier Town comes to fruition,” Moore said.

Just hours before that briefing, officials from the state Department of Environmental Conservation said they were working at a blistering clip to expedite the project.

“We have a team in place and are working on implementation faster than we’ve moved before,” said DEC Executive Deputy Commissioner Kenneth Lynch.

TOP OF THE NINTH

associate director of the SUNY ESF Newcomb Campus, and leader of the Northern Forest Institute, which is responsible for management of the facility.

Wayfinding signage will make the site easier to find for visitors, including those visiting the Gateway and Boreas Ponds.

“It’s an absolutely remarkable spot, but not a spot everyone can find right away,” Hai said.

Hai sees the investments by the state and the Nature Conservancy, which have been long in the works, as part of a critical effort to tie the region together into a comprehensive package, not only when it comes to linking the campus to the town of Newcomb, but also on a regional level.

“The Montreal-Albany corridor and everything in between — we’re really starting to raise awareness,” Hai said. “We’re really excited for the college to be a part of this.”

Lenhart said a strong local business community is critical in supporting the Gateway to the Adirondacks project that will transform Frontier Town into a tourism hub.

“We need to help (Paradox Brewery) as a private enterprise to get more commercial development in there to draw the

As the state prepares to enter the endgame, localities also need to be assertive in educating their office on the exact makeup on the ground in their communities, Nordhaus said, and determining exactly which homes have not been included in the current mapping.

Nordhaus sailed through a PowerPoint presentation, which included efforts localities can undertake to ensure all homes are covered: “Counties can help by undertaking their own mapping efforts,” read a slide.

Other suggestions included setting up local taskforces, streamlining permitting processes, identifying a single point of contract for the state BPO, facilitating outreach with providers, creating project checklists and becoming aware of existing franchise agreements that may need to be renegotiated.

Nordhaus also encouraged elected officials to attend the BPO’s bidder conference next month.

“At the end of the day, it’s a public-private partnership,” Nordhaus said.

Essex County was a prime recipient of funds last month, with about a half-dozen locales receiving commitments from Frontier and Slic, among other local providers.

Gillilland, the Essex County official, is open to the idea of localities becoming more active in aiding the state with their mapping efforts — “If they ask, I can drive around and show them,” he said of painting a picture on the ground — but is also concerned that time may be running out, and the state BPO’s olive branch may be too little, too late.

“All of a sudden we’re going to jump in and form a team to determine the permitting progress?”

Gillilland said. “That’s going to be a real problem.”

Gillilland said Essex County would be happy to conduct a mapping effort, but ticked off an alphabet soup of agencies that would need to be brought in to help streamline permitting.

“This is definitely the top of the ninth inning there,” he said. “If that’s the case, they better reach out to localities and counties as soon as possible so we mobilize this effort.”

At the town level, Preston said: “The town will step up to the plate to try to make sure that this is accurate.”

Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Farber urged his colleagues in local government to stay positive.

“I encourage you to take this with absolutely no cynicism, because you have the same interests as the BPO has,” Farber said. “We’re now trying to build the toughest of the toughest.”

On the projects that have been leapfrogged: “Nobody’s abandoning those projects,” he said.

For the state, failure is not an option.

“The projects have to be done by 2018,” said Nordhaus.

public in,” he said, referring to the Schroon-based craft brewery’s $4 million expansion project.

As part of a separate funding stream, Essex County received nearly $122,000 to make reinforcements for the town-owned Minerva Lake Dam. Other grant recipients include the Adirondack Hotel, Raquette River Outfitters, Adirondack Growl & Grub and the Coner (Long Lake), Trailhead Resort, Scoops Ice Cream and Cloudsplitter Outfitters (Newcomb), and the Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce.

The microenterprise grant program is administered by the Essex County Industrial Development Agency.

“The economic impact of this program will help businesses become more sustainable and profitable,” said Co-Executive Director of Essex County IDA Carol Calabrese in a statement.

Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism CEO James McKenna said previous rounds of microenterprise funding have resulted in success stories.

“I think we’re going to see that in this round,” McKenna said.

Protesters at summit reek of hypocrisy

R

ep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) has taken a lot of heat this winter for her refusal to hold town hall events.

The lawmaker has dismissed them as unproductive, referring to unruly affairs by her colleagues across the nation.

Stefanik has instead opted for small group events, saying they are more productive. The congresswoman also touts telephone town halls and her “Coffee With Your Congresswoman” events, among other outreach efforts.

Constituents have largely hailed the personal meetings, and have recounted pleasant encounters with Stefanik, who is always described as polite, attentive and genuinely receptive to their concerns.

And Stefanik will host a televised town hall on May 8. You can knock the representative for her policies and her preference for scripted settings, but you certainly can’t accuse her of dodging her constituents.

That’s why we’re surprised when we learned that a coalition of progressive activists held a private conclave in Paul Smiths last week — one that was closed to the press.

Instead, a breathless press release sailed into our inboxes early Monday touting the “impressive display of the engagement in the democratic process”

and the energy created at this “unprecedented gathering.”

Over 60 grassroots organizations participated.

This summit commenced as progressive groups continue to mobilize and determine how they will combat mounting concerns over the Trump administration and how GOP-led policies on Capitol Hill will trickle down to local residents.

They’ve held numerous protests outside of Stefanik’s office, even going as far as holding up cardboard tombstones while laying on the ground, an exercise in childish theatrics — in other words, a media stunt.

We’ve sounded off before on the new trend of ‘communication via press release’ that has supplanted politicians’ traditional relationships with the media.

Where politicians in the past were happy to engage in lengthy off-the-record chats with reporters and editorial boards, those opportunities are winnowing as officials grow increasingly polished, skittish and guarded.

Despite the root causes, this penchant for privacy is an alarming trend, one that sets a bad precedent, and even more so when progressive groups are taking a page from this playbook.

It should be noted this trend extends far past our

remote congressional district, and deep into the halls of the White House, where the press is under attack like never before: Not only are reporters publicly derided at daily briefings, but White House officials decry any coverage that does not fit their narrative as “fake news” and have declared journalists to be an “enemy of the people.”

It’s overall an erosion of the Fourth Estate that should be sacrosanct. These trends are alarming no matter which side of the political aisle you stand on, and only seek to further polarize the public.

These are changing times and while new methods of communication continue to develop, the key here is transparency and no backroom deals.

Obviously, when it comes to locking out the press, we’re biased: But the bottom line is who will report with accuracy who met with who, why they met and the outcome of the meeting?

Perhaps as they rally against everything they purport to be wrong with the political system, and rally against the normalization of questionable policies, these progressive activist groups should also take a look in the mirror.

The ravaging of the Plattsburgh City Retirees Point of View

Gary J. Brandstetter

cityretireesassociation@charter.net

O

n Oct. 8, 2015, then-Mayor James Calnon announced he was taking away the health insurance that was contractually guaranteed for retirees on Medicare and replacing it with a sub-standard Humana plan.

Most retirees’ contracts explicitly state that if the city replaced the health care for retirees, it must be with a plan that is “as good or better than the plan it replaces.”

At the time, he touted that this Humana plan was better than the plan we had and the councilors believed him and voted for it with a couple of requirements; that the prior authorizations not exceed the current plan limits and that the network must be nationwide and comprehensive.

They apparently thought they could get away with this because the retirees were the weakest group and were not organized, but a retirees association was formed and we hired labor attorneys to fight for our rights.

Our attorneys quickly determined that the Humana plan was a terrible plan compared to what we had and we filed for a temporary restraining order, which after reviewing the Humana plan, the New York State Supreme Court granted us.

On Feb. 1, 2016, we were granted a temporary injunction. In his decision, Supreme Court Judge Robert Muller ruled that the Humana plan did not meet the standards set forth in the city’s own resolution. So, on Feb. 18, 2016, the Common Council voted to do away with the original resolution and not require that the replacement plan be as good or better, universal and comprehensive and mirror the requirements of the required plan in place.

This vote, essentially, admitted to everyone that the Humana plan was not a good plan — but the city didn’t care and decided to continue fighting in court, potentially wasting hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars at a time when they were broke!

Amazing.

The honorable thing to have done was admit they were wrong, undo the Humana plan and put everyone back on the Blue Cross Blue Shield plan.

As the city continued with the forced Humana plan, it became evident to everyone that it was a horrible

plan. Even Councilor Mike Kelly (Ward 2) eventually called it “a stinker of a plan.”

Then Humana announced that it was pulling out of northern New York. That left former Mayor Calnon in another conundrum: what to do with those transferred to Humana. His solution was to simply transfer everyone to another sub-standard health care plan almost identical to Humana offered by United Health Care.

Calnon called for a special session of the Common Council to vote on that resolution, but by then, the councilors had become much more educated and voted it down.

During the discussion, Councilors Rachelle Armstrong (Ward 1), Paul O’Connell (Ward 4) and Kelly all asked the mayor what would happen if the resolution was voted down. He stated, three times, that those on Humana would be put back on the Blue plan. That was a reason it was voted down.

But is that what Mayor Calnon did? No. He signed an agreement with Excellus to replace Humana without bringing the proposal to a vote of the Common Council! King James!

In the decision dated Feb. 1, 2016, Judge Muller stated: “The petitioners [retirees] have demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits.”

He continued: “The court further finds that the petitioners have demonstrated irreparable harm if the injunction is not granted.”

In the same decision he notes, “irreparable injury has been defined as that which can not be repaired, restored or adequately compensated in money, or where the compensation can not be safely measured.

Here the loss of coverage under the Blue plan can not be recovered by an award for money damages along, especially not to individual petitioners [names deleted for privacy reasons] who have significant health problems.”

The city’s only argument against this was that they would incur additional costs each month, proving that they do not care about their employees — that it is money they are concerned with.

All of the members of the PCRA understand and appreciate that costs must be considered, but we say to the taxpayers: we are not the cause of the city’s financial problems.

Mayor Calnon frittered away a $6.4 million reserve because he didn’t want to give the firefighters a retroactive raise. The problems the city faces has been the result of years of financial irresponsibility. These health

premiums coming due were no surprise.

The Supreme Court Judge replied to that argument by stating: “The court finds that a loss or reduction in health care coverage outweighs any possible monetary loss to the city,” and he granted the temporary injunction.

Mayor Calnon did create the Health Care Taskforce to look into alternatives that were as good or better than the retirees currently have.

Their representatives at First Niagara succinctly stated that there was nothing in the marketplace that was as good or better than what we currently have.

But we met and investigated what might be offered as a good alternative that would also save the city money. Myself and retired police chief Herbert Carpenter, who were invited to the meetings, really felt that we had a good alternative to offer — but the city put restrictions and requirements on it, and made it unacceptable.

So the retired employees of the City of Plattsburgh, who spent most of their lives in service to the citizens of the city, are forced to continue fighting in court for our rights.

These are the people who responded to burglaries and murders, putting their lives on the line. These are the people who answered your calls for help when there was a fire of a medical emergency.

The people who plowed your streets and repaired broken water mains when it was 20 below zero and made sure, no matter what the weather or the danger, that you had cheap, reliable electricity. And now after as much as 40+ years of service, the city is telling them that money is more important than their health and lives!

When Mayoral Candidate Colin Read announced his candidacy, he stated on National Public Radio — when asked his opinion of what Mayor Calnon was doing to the retirees — that he felt “it is not only illegal, it is also immoral and unethical.” Yet we continue with the same policies and attitudes under his administration.

Benjamin Franklin said: “There is no better measure of a person than whether or not they keep their word.” Wise words from a very wise man. We sincerely urge the Mayor and the Common Council to adopt their mantra.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Ô MiracleÊ onÊ IceÕ Ê returnÊ bringsÊ backÊ StefanikÊ meetingÊ worthÊ theÊ effort happyÊ memories To the Editor: To the Editor: How wonderful to look at the television and see something uplifting.

A lot of memories as the events in Lake Placid are unfolding, with the return of the “Miracle on Ice” team, and the curtain call.

My father and his friend helped build many of the structures for the 1932 Olympics. He had many stories to tell of that exciting time.

Over the years this complex has housed and hosted many events. The last time I was able to attend was “INSPIRE: A Call to Love.” Wonderful.

The 1980 Olympics, when the “game of history-making event” took place, our church group went to the opening ceremonies and were to be picked up at Petrove School in Saranac Lake, by bus — which never arrived. We stood in the frigid cold, sang songs, said prayers for the event and went home very disappointed.

My husband, on errands for his employer, was in Lake Placid when the roof of the arena nearly blew off with the roar from the crowd as Team USA won the game that has resounded all these years. And now these dear and special team members are back. Their gracious manner and happy smiles are the medicine these times need to show people anyuthing is possible and that dreams do come true. When the world needs lifting up it is times like this that raise us aup and set our feet on higher ground — or in this case, a pair of skates and the will to win.

Hats off to these heroes who showed us what can happen when the team plays their best for the good of all. Miracles happen and dreams do come true. God bless each one. We need more miracles on ice.

PeruÊ CSDÊ shouldÊ lookÊ localÊ inÊ superintendentÊ search To the Editor: I have resided in the Peru Central School District for nearly 50 years.

In recent years, there has been a big turnover of school superintendents and everytime a search is conducted to fill the position, the school board seeks candidates from out of the area and ignores of shows little interest in hiring a local person.

The result has been a big turnover as the candidates are poorly vetted and little is known of their background except what appears on their required documents.

According to a recent article in the newspaper last week, the board interviewed three candidates; they were all from other areas and apparently did not have the required “vision” the board feels is necessary for the position.

Every other school district in Clinton County has superintendents from the local area and they seem to be doing just fine!

I believe the board would achieve better results if they took a good look at some of the folks in our own backyard, with roots in the area and the desire for long-term committment.

Instead of “vision,” the search should be for a candidate that is a good communicator with excellent supervisory and administrative skills and a sincere desire to serve this community.

It’s time the board reboots its computer and googles “local talent” — they might be surprised by the results.

MedicaidÊ taxiÊ self-reportingÊ Ô likeÊ theÊ foxesÊ guardingÊ theÊ henhouseÕ To the Editor: Interesting article in The Sun, dated April 1, regarding medical answering services — known better as the shifty medical transport business.

MAS was instituted by the NYS Department of Health and our illustrious governor Andrew Cuomo. This is all tied in with Medicaid services. This should be paid for by the state, but the costs have been put on the back of the property owners in Essex County with Cuomo’s unfunded mandates.

I do not know if you people realize it or not, but around 72 percent of your property taxes are unfunded mandates from Gov. Cuomo in Albany. This means the property owners in Essex County are paying for services which are mandated by the state and not paid for by the state which are not owed by you as a taxpayer.

This is why you are having your property taken away: because you could not afford all of those expenses being foisted upon you illegally in your tax bills. Non-property owners pay none of this.

This healthcare Medicaid taxi is a prime example of an expense of something put in your tax bill that you did not request nor negotiate for.

Why did Essex County pay $400,000 in 2012 and now that same cost has risen up 800 percent to $3.2 million?

Fraud charges by drivers for trips they never made and charged against their contract with MAS, a Syracuse-based call center, which facilitates the dispatch service is what has increased this bill. Asking MAS to self-report this fraud in this business is the same as the foxes guarding the henhouse. Who else, besides me, is PO’d at this?

Ten women from Lake Placid and Saranac Lake met with Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) on April 1 to discuss several concerns. Although securing a meeting date was a weeks-long process, it was worth the effort.

We encourage others to schedule meetings with Congresswoman Stefanik and to communicate their experience with fellow constituents.

Healthcare, particularly proposals that would leave millions uninsured and do nothing to address affordability and accessibility, was discussed.

We asked the Congresswoman to reach across the aisle to craft a “Medicare for All” plan, eliminating or strictly regulating for-profit insurance — a major cause of high healthcare costs in the U.S. We spent considerable time discussing climate change and the environment, especially as they relate to the economy of the North Country, which is dependent on wilderness, clean air, and clean waterways for tourism.

We emphasized that the future lies not in an economy based on oil and gas production and burning of fossil fuels, but on the production and installation of renewable energy alternatives.

We encouraged Ms. Stefanik to support NIH funding which is essential for local biotech businesses and our research institutions such as the Trudeau Institute.

Finally, we expressed concerns regarding any decrease in funding for preschool special education, Head Start, and the Free and Reduced Lunch Program. Early education and service assistance for the 0-5 population provide a necessary start for future generations of community members; therefore, we also emphasized the restoration of Early Intervention funds.

Rep. Stefanik was gracious, extending the allotted time to complete our dialogue. We are pleased that Rep. Stefanik will host a series of “Coffees with the Congresswoman,” open to all.

We look forward to seeing her and fellow constituents at one of these events soon.

WelcomingÊ AmishÊ toÊ region To the Editor: Thank you Pete DeMola for your fine article in the April 8 issue of The Sun. More than that, thank you to the Amish community for coming to the Champlain Valley, bringing to life the foundation of all economy: that of viable farming.

Reclaiming farm land before it is completely reforested or over-run with briers and brush is truly a blessing. Farming, raising food and fiber always was the foundation for a healthy life in any community and theirs is and will be no exception.

As for the town, country and state road safety: all public sectors need to make, buy, install perhaps hundreds of caution signs with the Amish buggy symbol, as our terrain with all the curves will need them for safe passage for all.

Anyone who has travel through an Amish farm community is aware of these necessary signs.

Back to the topic of economy (that of targeted tourism): If this community, once established engages in direct commerce with the public, selling their home made products, tourism could well be effected in a positive way.

That brings back the topic of the commercial park in Westport: What business expansions can be attracted to the site that favor tourists as well as provide a year around internet business?

Ah, the farming foundation of an economy sparks the imagination!

Again, thank you Pete DeMola for your article and more than that, a big thank you to the Amish community for choosing to move to the Champlain Valley.

Susan C. Sherman Westport

DisenchantedÊ withÊ Stefanik To the Editor: To Rep. Stefanik: I am a Democrat, but I have the ability to cross party lines. I never vote for an individual because they belong to a designated party. I vote for the candidate because I believe that person will do what is best for the people and not for what is best for the party.

I voted for you because I thought that you possessed the ability to think for yourself and not be a puppet of the political system. During the past few months, I have become disenchanted with your actions — or lack of action.

Your words suggest that you lean toward one thing, yet your feet are firmly planted in the ground of your party.

You say that you are for the welfare of the environment, yet you voted to allow coal mines to dump waste into the streams. You say that you want to stop global warming if it doesn’t interfere with big business.

You will soon be voting on the new medical plan that is supported by the Republicans. (Editor’s note: The vote on the AHCA, the replacement bill for the ACA, was cancelled by House leadership before lawmakers could vote.)

We have a medical plan. It might not be the best, but it has helped millions of Americans. If your car needed new brakes, would you get rid of it and buy a new car? Use the medical plan that is in existence and make the necessary changes over time.

Speak up and do what is good for the people whom you represent. Vote for what will benefit the people and the world, and not for what is the belief of your party.

You were born with a heart and a brain. Use them. I’d rather go to my grave as a radical than to be classified as a puppet.

Behind the Pressline Predictable and unpredictable

Dan Alexander

Publisher/CEO

C

urrent events continue to define a very unique time in the history of our na-

tion.

Some of the events you could see coming months ago, while others continue to shake conventional thinking and have us all wondering just what to expect next.

Party dysfunction grew even worse when the Senate decided, along party lines, to exercise the so called “nuclear option” and remove the filibuster to confirm Supreme Court Nominee Neil Gorsuch.

These developments will continue to divide the country, but they were easily predictable given the toxic political climate and won’t make a major change in the operation of either institution.

The Gorsuch appointment returns the high court to where it was before the death of Judge Scalia. Should another appointment be necessary, under President Trump with the GOP in charge of the Senate, nothing will hold them back from appointing a strict conservative. The Democrats now have no leverage until the tables turn back in their favor, and that is just plain bad for the country as the future of the court will sway heavily right or left with no rationale for appointing a moderate nominee.

While the Russian debate rages on as the current tug of war between the two political parties, most eyes were on the coming visit from China President Xi to see how President Trump would match up against another powerful leader. Moments before the formal dinner at Mar-a-Lago ended special reports began flashing across television sets and radio broadcasts to inform the nation that President Trump had unleashed 60 Tomahawk missiles heading to a Syrian airfield, as the US attacked the war torn nation for its chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians earlier in the week, using a deadly nerve agent.

The aggressive move underscored Trump’s tough talk during the campaign, but few would have predicted it to take place while engaged in his first meeting with President Xi. If we’ve come to understand anything in the early days of the Trump Administration we should remember to be prepared for the unexpected. With all the world seemingly on a short fuse given the ongoing civil war in Syria, North Korean missal tests, Russia and China both flexing their military muscle as well as the ongoing terrorist attacks, President Trump made a bold statement to all nations that America would stand up and be heard when other nations take actions contrary to international law. The limited military action was sufficient to send a signal to friend and foe alike that the country’s prior predictable behavior was no longer so predictable.

Unpredictability can be a benefit or a liability, but keeping other nations guessing our next move, in the short term, might be our best strategy while the new administration continues building out its foreign policy.

REMEMBERING BACK OVER THE YEARS Everything changes while everything remains the same.

Looking today at the teeming, industrious streets of Warrensburg, it is hard indeed to visualize what the town must have looked like at its beginning, when 99 percent of the area was forest land.

In the year 1786 one lone settler, William Bond, lived here, down on a piece of property near Bond’s Pond, currently known as Echo Lake. He must have grown tired of the solitude as he is said to have later moved his family north, toward the Chestertown area. From there they disappeared forever into the twilight zone.

Josiah Woodward came in 1787 and Aaron Varnum came in 1788. Timothy Stow came next and he took up residence at what is today the old Austin Perry ranch property overlooking the Schroon River bridge below. Samuel Judd moved on the property in 1789 and the bridge has hence been named the “Judd Bridge.”

David Hadden was a late comer: he didn’t get here from Greene County until 1836 and settled on “Hadden Hill,” now known as Ridge Street.

So long ago there were so many good people that once traversed our streets — that are now long dead and gone.

A MIGHTY RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT The Schroon River has always been an important part of the town which greatly influenced the history of the place and made it into a once major industrial town.

On April 4, 1913 the river, greatly swollen by heavy spring rains that fell almost without ceasing, reached its crest on a Saturday night when it was believed to be the highest it had ever been known to become since 1869 when it was only two inches higher. The Woolen Mill Bridge, now known as the Milton Avenue Bridge, was of great concern and in great danger as it was threatened with destruction.

By April 24, 1913, the largest jam of logs ever known by

river men located in the nearby Hudson River was lodged for more than a week between Thurman and Stony Creek. It extended up the river four and a half miles, a solid mass of spruce pulp logs. It must have been quite a sight.

LOOKING TOWARD MOVE PEACEFUL TIMES In getting out my old 1962 copies of the Warrensburg News, it is time to look back at more peaceful times here in town in the hope that readers will recognize someone they knew or see something that brings back a fond memory. I was very happy this week to receive several nice phone calls to that effect. In 1960 there were 2,907 citizens living here, about half of what is here today.

AROUND TOWN: BITS AND PIECES Mr. and Mrs. Walton P. Millward, of Warrensburg, sailed April 1, 1962 on the ship S.S. France for a three month tour of Europe. (Update: “Ozzie” Millward’s popular drug store was located on Main Street approximately where Jack Toney is today installing his new gas pumps.)

The discovery of the body of sixteen year old James Parker, of Johnsburg, Garnet Lake, ended a three day search. His body was located in about twenty feet of water, 150 feet off shore.

Marcus Bruce, Warrensburg automobile dealer, has a nice 1953 Buick, four door sedan, for sale for $49 and a clean 1954 Buick for $79 at his new place of business, 624 Glen Street, Glens Falls.

LakeÊ George,Ê No.Ê WarrenÊ prevailÊ inÊ earlyÊ seasonÊ games

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — Baseball teams of northern Warren County had split results this last week as they began their 2017 seasons.

Lake George beat Hadley-Luzerne 9-1 in the Warriors’ league opener — and their first baseball game of the year.

The Warriors had 14 hits to the Eagles’ 5, while Tony Abrantes was on the mound leading the defense.

The game featured two doubles by Shane McCabe and one each by Abrantes and Connor Vidnansky. McCabe went 3 for 4 at bat;

Alex Jones went 2 for 3 including 2 singles; Connor Vidnansky went 2 for 2 including an RBI; and Abrantes went 2 for 3 including an RBI. North Warren won its first two games of the season with two different pitchers at the helm. April 10, the Cougars beat Corinth 3-1 in a league contest with James Hayes on the mound.

North Warren had five hits to Corinth’s four.

Both Dylan Baker and Tyler Peet hit doubles. Baker was two for three, and had an RBI. Peet hit a triple. Joe Phelps was 1-3 and hit an RBI. Hayes had a complete game, strik-

ing out seven batters and allowing 4 hits. For Corinth, pitcher Connor Nichols tallied 11 strikeouts.

April 5, North Warren won a non-league game to Hadley-Luzerne by a score of 6-3, achieving 8 hits to the Eagles’ 7. The Cougars’ victory was earned by pitcher Dylan Baker, who was 1 for 2 at the plate, scored a run plus hit a double and an RBI. His teammate Joe Phelps hit two doubles and an RBI as he tallied 2 for 4 at the plate.

Warrensburg Central’s baseball team has struggled out of the gate for 2017 — but both fortunately were non-league games.

On April 10, the Burghers lost to Granville

LAKE GEORGE — Although late-season snowfall delayed spring sports action for 2016, softball teams in northern Warren County enjoyed a solid start to the season over their first few games this week.

The Lake George softball team started off their 2017 campaign demonstrating their strength, as they steamrolled Hadley Luzerne 17-0 on April 10, five days after edging out larger B school Hudson Falls by a score of 5-3. Both games featured standout sophomore All-Star pitcher Rebecca Jaeger on the mound for the Warriors.

Against Hadley-Luzerne, Lake George enjoyed a blowout 10run third inning after achieving two runs in the first, followed with three runs in the second. Their scoring ended with two more runs in the fourth inning as Jaeger kept the Eagles scoreless.

Over the Adirondack League opener, Lake George had 12 hits to Hadley-Luzerne’s one. Abby Baertschi hit a triple, Logan Clarke tallied 3 for 4 including 2 RBIs, Alysia Kane was 3 for 3 with 3 RBIs, Tyler Berman got on base three times, Rachel Jaeger scored three times, and Julia Heunemann judged the pitches well to earn two walks and get on base with a hit.

Against Hudson Falls April 5, scoring for both teams started in the third inning with Lake George accomplishing 4 runs, with Hudson Falls answering with 1. In the final inning, Hudson Falls added two, and Lake George had one. Over the game, Lake George had 14 hits to Hudson Falls’ 7.

Highlights include Naesha Kelly of Hudson Falls clobbering a home run and her teammate Kate Lapan hitting two doubles.

For Lake George, Rachel Layton tallied 3 for 4 at the plate, plus scoring a run; Julia Heunemann recording 3 for 4 with two runs scored; Tyler Bergman 2 for 4 with two RBIs; and Abby Baertschi tallying 2 for 3 including an RBI. Warrensburg High School also showed strength in their first week of play, winning two of three games, including their league opener against Granville April 10. All three featured freshman pitcher Sophie Reed demonstrating her potential after taking over for four-year pitcher Bethaney Galusha who graduated in June.

The Burghers beat the Sentinels 5-1, scoring one run each in the first and third innings, followed by three runs in the fourth. Granville achieved their sole run in the second inning. Reed held the Sentinels to four hits while the Burghers got 7 off Granville’s pitcher Bre Greenough.

Burgher highlights include a triple hit by Dianne Curtis; Britanny Frasier going 2 for 3 including a double and an RBI, and Jordan Hill tallying 2 for 4 with an RBI. Greenough did her part on defense for the Sentinels, getting 8 strikeouts.

On April 7, Warrensburg was edged out 15-2 in a nonleague game against Hadley-

Luzerne, although the Burghers tallied 18 hits to the Eagles’ 15.

The Burghers won their season opener against Hartford 8-5 in a non-league game played April 5. Warrensburg had a late game rally with four runs in the seventh inning and three in the ninth to beat Hartford.

Britanny Frasier slugged two doubles, scored three runs and hit two RBIs; while Dianne Curtis was 2 for 4. Reed had two strikeouts and four walks, and was 1 for 4 at the plate.

North Warren won one game and lost two in starting their 2017 season. Sophomore Brooke French pitched all three games.

On April 10, the Cougars lost their league opener to Corinth 9-3 in a league game which featured Sarah Stewart hitting a triple, plus Madasyn Bush and Alyssa Kramer hitting one double each. Bush was 2 for 3 in the effort.

North Warren edged out Hadley-Luzerne April 5 by a score of 11-10 in a non-league game that had fans in suspense until the last out.

After North Warren got seven runs in the first inning, HadleyLuzerne fought their way back, particularly in the last two stanzas in this highly competitive game. Brooke French, hit a double as did Sydney Gagnon (4 for 4), while Madasyn Bush hit two doubles, and Sarah Stewart smashed a home run.

Two days earlier, Hartford edged out North Warren 11 to 10 in a non-league game. The Cougars amassed six runs in the final stanza in their comeback effort. They tallied nine hits to Hartford’s eight overall. Highlights of the Cougar effort included a double by Sydney Gagnon. Both Madasyn Bush and Gagnon went 2 for 4 in the game.

10-6 after losing to Hartford 11-3 five days earlier. Joe Turner was on the mound for both games.

Against the Sentinels, the Burghers had six hits to Granville’s 11. Turner went 2 for 4 with 3 RBIs, and Evan MacDuff went 2 for 4 with 2 RBIs. Against Hartford on April 5, Warrensburg had two hits to Hartford’s eight. For Warrensburg, Zach Smith went 1-2 with a walk and two runs scored.

On the mound for Hartford was eighth grade pitcher Peyton Ottens who earned his first varsity win as well as hitting a double.
