Public input wanted for proposed regional trail network Adirondack Community-based Trails and Lodging System aims to broaden hiking experience, revitalize communities

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Are you into nature but are clueless on how to pitch a tent or build a campfire? Do you have inexperienced guests in town? Getting older? Or are you still hardcore, but want a few luxuries waiting for you at the end of your journey?

An ambitious new project aims to broaden the hiking experience for everyone, and give local towns an economic jump start in the process.

The Adirondack Community-based Trails and Lodging System (ACTLS) project seeks to develop a series of trail networks across the region. Key locations will include lodging facilities at the end of a day-long trek, each containing varying amenities.

Hatched by a pair of local educators with years of wilderness experience, the project is now only in its conceptual stages, and was formally rolled out earlier this year at the Adirondack Research Consortium’s annual conference in Lake Placid.

After experiencing a hut-to-hut system in New Zealand, Joe Dadey, a former Paul Smith’s College professor, returned statewide and mulled over his experience: “What would that like look like in the Adirondacks?”

The Methow Valley Recreational Trail Sys-

tem in Washington, a network of 120 miles of cross-country ski trails surrounded by national wilderness, provided additional inspiration, Dadey said.

That network, according to their website, generated $4.5 million in spending directly, another $4.1 million indirectly, and an additional $2.7 million annually through related industry earnings in the region. Over 200 seasonal full- and part-time jobs can be also directly attributed to the network.

A similar system in the Adirondack Park would promote the outdoors and wellness while also aiding in economic development, Dadey said. The network could also provide opportunities for people who don’t ordinarily experience the backcountry.

Dadey and his partner, Jack Drury, will host a series of nine community workshops across the Adirondacks this fall to gather

public input.

The first session was held in Star Lake on Tuesday. Subsequent sessions are scheduled for Old Forge, Saranac, Lake Placid, Lake George, Elizabethtown, Ticonderoga and Tupper Lake, with the final session slated for Paul Smith’s on Nov. 15.

The project is in its embryonic stages, and possible trail networks exist only within a conceptual framework.

But Dadey and Drury hope to leverage public knowledge with these sessions, gleaning input on existing trails and prospective new ones and their connections, as well as potential lodging facilities.

Routes floated earlier this spring include a North Creek to Indian Lake circuit that may incorporate rafting. >> See TRAILS | pg. 19

GLENS FALLS — Dozens of high-profile Republicans rescinded their support of Donald Trump over the weekend after an audio tape revealed the presidential candidate bragging about groping women using vulgar language.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) was not among them.

“Donald Trump’s inappropriate, offensive comments are just wrong - No matter when he said them or whatever the context,” Stefanik said on Friday. “I hope his apology is sincere.”

Stefanik’s Democratic opponent Mike Derrick was quick to seize on her comments, branding Stefanik as a “party loyalist” and an “establishment sellout” for her continued support of the Republican nominee, which he called “downright reprehensible.”

Bolton Veterans Memorial revitalized, 31 names added

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

BOLTON LANDING — Several dozen more residents of the town of Bolton are now publicly commemorated — for generations to come — hailing their service to the nation.

On Oct. 6, monument craftsman Matt Peake etched 31 additional names of soldiers who fought in various wars and conflicts on behalf of the U.S. to the 926 already engraved on the monuments at the Bolton Veterans Memorial Plaza.

Local resident J. Buckley “Buck” Bryan watched Peake aim a specialized sandblaster in a template that etched the names into the granite monuments under the titles of the respective wars they served.

Bryan had reason to monitor the work: He had paid for not only the etching of the names, but also $190,000 + for the halfdozen monuments and the entire memorial plaza in the center of Bolton Landing, which this summer, had its 15th anniversary.

Dedicated in June 2001, the plaza also includes features a statue of a World War I doughboy soldier, a sculpture of a Fallen Soldier Battlefield Cross, a bronze casting of a Scout on reconnaissance and an antique 1906 cannon.

With some veterans stopping by Oct. 6 to see their names memorialized for centuries to come, Bryan reflected on why he undertook the mission.

“I’ve been very fortunate in my life, and I’ve always believed in giving back to the community that’s been so good to me,” he said.

Bryan is a retired airline pilot and a real estate and securities investor. He’s served as a ski patrol member, as an assistant ski school director at both Gore and West mountains, and as a professor of business at SUNY Adirondack.

His most prominent role in the region,

however, has been as a philanthropist. In the mid-2000s, he donated $1.6 million to SUNY Adirondack’s Regional Higher Education Center, which is now named in his honor.

At the ceremony dedicating the J. Buckley Bryan educational center in 2008, Bryan noted he didn’t go to college until he was 45 years old. He earned two associate degrees from SUNY Adirondack — one in 1987 and the other 1994.

Bolton’s original veterans memorial was initially just the doughboy statue, erected in 1921 to recognize three local residents who fought and died in World War I: Vinton Roger Wells, Allen Mills Seaman and George James Beers.

Then in 1999, Bryan, a veteran, along with members of the local American Legion Post #961 and other Bolton citizens, planned and commissioned five granite monuments bearing 869 names of soldiers from all wars and conflicts, and they incorporated various statues, sculptures and other features into a memorial plaza.

A total of 31 bronze works were situated in the plaza. In 2004, 57 names of veterans were added to the granite slabs.

The plaza now honors veterans from all wars, from the French and Indian War of the mid-1700s and the Revolutionary War two decades later, up to the recent Gulf War. The memorial plaza’s recent revitalization includes a rehabilitation of the cannon, which includes re-painting of the artifact now underway at Warrensburg Car Care. It also included restoration of the statues.

Despite his decades of commitment to leading the effort to develop and revitalize the memorial plaza, Bryan deflected credit to those residents whose names have been engraved in the granite slabs.

“I’m proud to say that at least one Bolton resident served in every major conflict involving the U.S.,” he said.

J. Buckley ‘Buck’ Bryan describes his 17-year effort to develop the Bolton Veterans Memorial plaza a few weeks before 31 names were added Oct. 6 to the plaza’s half-dozen granite monuments. Bryan stands in the plaza beside a bronze statue of a Word War I doughboy soldier in action — a sculpture that is being refurbished along with a 1906 cannon which is now being painted at Warrensburg Car Care. Bryan and members of a local citizen’s advisory committee have conducted many hours of planning and designing the plaza, as well as conducting research gathering and verifying soldiers’ names — now approaching 1,000 — which have been etched into the granite slabs. Bryan, a noted area philanthropist, has bankrolled the project, which to date has cost nearly $200,000.

Peake added 31 veterans’ names to the granite monuments in an ongoing effort to update the memorial, dedicated to Bolton residents who served in wars and conflicts from the French & Indian War to the recent Gulf War. Bryan has underwritten the cost of the memorial plaza and spearheaded its development, leading a citizens advisory committee which conducted research to identify and commemorate all those who served the nation.

Lake George Harvest Festival to offer activities for all ages Event slated for weekend of Oct 21-23

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — Hearty food, craft beer and wine, artisans, live music — plus an array of children’s activities — are expected to draw thousands to the area next weekend for the new Lake George Fall Festival.

Set for Friday Oct. 21 through Sunday Oct. 23, the event is to celebrate fall flavors and family fun, festival producer Tony Morreale said this week.

“The Harvest Festival is about crunchy leaves, apple pie and flannels — that warm and cozy feeling of fall,” he said.

“People will be getting into the groove of cool.”

The festival features a half-dozen or more food trucks, craft beer and wine tastings, a long lineup of vendors, and a robust roster of rock ‘n roll and country music performers.

Vendors are to include craft artisans and antique dealers as well as the Harvest Bakery, offering pumpkin and apple pies in addition to maple confections.

Activities for children include rides, magic shows, bounce houses, face painting, pumpkin coloring, games and a contest.

Fireworks, featuring fall colors, are set to cap off activities on Saturday evening.

Also, the festival features a tourism expo of various regional destinations and accommodations, who will be offering deals for vacations and getaways.

Local enterprises participating include the new Marriott Courtyard, the Stony Creek Ranch Resort, The Boathouse, Holiday Inn Resort, Garnet Hill Lodge and The Lodges at Cresthaven.

The weekend event starts at 3 p.m. Friday and extends through 8 p.m, featuring the bands Funk Evolution and Formula 5.

The festival resumes on Sunday from noon to 8 p.m. with the following groups on stage: Capital Zen, Vatrano Road, Dashboard Anthem, UPG, the Bob Barker Band and Moriah Formica.

Sunday, the festival reopens at noon for a six-hour stint, with the bands Sirsy, Country Fresh and Madison Vendenberg on stage.

Beverage tastings are to be offered by at least 10 breweries and cideries, hailing from Lake Placid to Long Island. Samplings of wine are to be provided by Adirondack Winery of Lake George.

Amanda Metzger of the Lake George Chamber of Commerce said she was enthusiastic about the new festival, not only due to its varied aspects, but because of the quality of the bands that are to perform.

“I’m really excited to see the fantastic music lineup,” she said. “It will be a great weekend for people to come up to Lake George and enjoy everything the festival has to offer.”

The festival also has a charitable aspect — a portion of the proceeds will go to Autism Speaks, a leading research and advocacy organization for the syndrome.

The festival, a debut event for Lake George, was awarded a total of $15,000 in occupancy tax support from Warren County and the town and village of Lake George, doubtlessly due to its array of activities and expectations that it will draw people to the area during a shoulder season.

Morreale said the Harvest Festival will be achieving that mission.

“People will be coming to Lake George, staying overnight, patronizing the businesses that are open,” he said. “It’s our focus to boost tourism in the village after Labor Day, and we’re pushing the envelope as hard as we can, catering to people of all ages.”

He predicted that the Harvest Festival will be an enduring fall attraction for Lake George.

“I wanted to get the momentum going for future years,” he said, inviting people to bring their family and friends to Lake George for the weekend.

Donations sought for auction to help Sgt. Eddie Ryan recovery Benefit dinner set for Oct. 30

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — Donations of goods and services are now being sought for a silent auction and raffles at the upcoming second annual community benefit dinner for former U.S. Marine Sgt. Eddie Ryan.

More than 11 years ago, Ryan was shot in the head while serving in Iraq, and he’s since been recovering steadily from a traumatic brain injury.

A sustained routine of physical therapy sessions have been crucial for Ryan’s progress, and a community-based committee has for two years organized dinners in his honor to raise money to pay for the specialized therapies not covered by the Veterans Administration.

The next benefit dinner is set for 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday Oct. 30 at the Glens Falls Elks Lodge, 32 Cronin Road in

Queensbury.

Sgt. Ryan has made tremendous progress over the past year and was recently able to stand up briefly, with assistance, from his wheelchair for the first time in 11 years, Amanda Metzger of the Lake George Chamber of Commerce said this week.

“Sgt. Ryan is now working on balance and is hopeful about being able to stand and eventually walk again without assistance,” she said. “This would not be possible without the additional physical therapy sessions.”

Metzger, a member of the committee helping Ryan recover, said more donated items and services are urgently needed for the benefit dinner’s auction.

“Without the community’s support, it would be extremely difficult for the family to obtain the specialized physical therapy sessions which have prompted his ongoing recovery,” she said. “It means a lot to the family that the community recognizes the sacrifices that Eddie has made for our nation — and that local citizens feel inspired to respond.”

Event coordinator Scott Walton, a Ryan family friend, said the Ryans were “very special people,” and that Eddie Ryan

Hague Oktoberfest celebration a success, say organizers Festival draws 900 visitors, record number of vendors

HAGUE — The 8th Annual Hague Oktoberfest, held Sept. 16-19, was a tremendous success, according to organizers.

The event attracted more than 900 visitors along with a record number of craftsmen and vendors.

Attendees enjoyed perusing a wide variety of merchandise in the vendor alley, beer supplied by Adirondack

Brewery, food from Rainer’s at the Ramada and Emerald’s and live music.

Younger visitors were delighted by Penelope the Clown and enjoyed a variety of games.

For the adults, the games included the Men’s Keg Toss (Winner: John Ripp of Hulett’s Landing); the Women’s (Jen Pasquini of Hague and Florida, NY) and the Miss Oktoberfest Contest, won by Sandy Rypkema of Hague.

The weekend concluded with a non-denominational lakeside service led by the

Reverend Bruce Tamlyn.

All proceeds from the event – including the money taken in from the 50-50 raffle – will go to support area youth programs, including $500 to the Ticonderoga Backpack Program, $1,500 to the Beste Scholarship Fund and $500 toward a college scholarship for a Hague student planning to study science, technology, engineering or math.

Organizers wish to thank the 60 volunteers and local businesses who made the event possible.

joined the Marine Corps shortly after Sept. 11, 2001 because he wanted to fight terrorism and keep our homeland safe.

Walton added that he was thankful that 300 people attended the benefit dinner last year, and their donations paid for dozens of physical therapy sessions. Walton predicted that 450 people or more would be attending to help Sgt. Ryan continue his recovery.

“After Sgt. Ryan was shot, doctors didn’t expect him to live, but now he can speak Spanish — it’s amazing how he’s recovering — the kid is a miracle,” he said. “ So many people have been very helpful with Eddie Ryan’s recovery,” he said. “This is all about everybody’s love for Eddie.”

All proceeds of the event go to Sgt. Ryan and his family, which resides in the town of Lake George, to pay for physical therapy. To donate items to be auctioned at the community spaghetti dinner, call Scott Walton at 518-791-4268.

People are encouraged to obtain advance tickets to the event, for $15, by calling the above phone number.

Johnsburg students awarded for academic achievement JOHNSBURG — A scholarship recognition assembly, sponsored by the Johnsburg Central School Teachers Association, was held on Sept. 29.

The event featured guest speaker Nadeen Kipp. The assembly was to recognize academic achievement during the 2015-2016 school year.

The students honored at the assembly included: In grade 11; Kersten Mason, Amara Mitchell, James Morris, V. In grade 10; Taylor Dwyer, Emma Hagadorn, Brendan Tomb, Casey Tomb, Seamus Tomb. In grade 9; Ava Anderson, Thomas Fuller, Novalee Gadway and Kenneth Mulvey.

y nature, we are each unique and different.

We want to pursue our own path in life and in nearly everything we do.

It’s that free spirit quality that has made our country so successful and creative.

Last week, the country celebrated Manufacturing Week with events peppered from north to south. Creating and building products that meet the population’s ever-growing needs is not only a highly satisfying career, but one with handsome rewards also.

Plattsburgh, site of the new Institute of Advanced Manufacturing (IAM) at Clinton Community College, served as a host site for a number of manufacturers from around the region. The panel discussion revealed several interesting new developments that might surprise those among us who think of manufacturing plants as dark and dirty, performing monotonous work.

Another purpose of the gathering was to celebrate the success our region enjoys having these production facilities located here and to remind parents, teachers and students of the tremendous career opportunities available in the manufacturing fields today.

IAM will be a state-of-theart facility designed to support advanced manufacturing throughout the region when it opens next fall and will provide the region with the perfect assets to attract and train our growing population.

Most manufacturing facilities pay approximately 20 percent more than the area’s going pay rates. Technical education degrees are far less expensive than liberal art degrees and are more likely to be achieved with far fewer college loans to pay back.

Most workers today are cross trained in more than one area of expertise and are provided greater opportunity for advancement, especially with baby boomers leaving the work force at high numbers.

Management no longer calls all the shots. They’ve learned most line workers have superior ideas when it comes to streamlining operations. Today’s worker actively seeks the opportunity to take a more active role improving the work flow and product design and management encourages this participation.

Training opportunities today far exceed what has been available in the past, and with new technology and a greater demand for green manufacturing taking place, workers play a more important role than ever before.

Clearly our industrial plants today are nothing like the smoke-filled plants our grandfather and great grandfathers worked in years ago. These lean and clean facilities offer stability and tremendous economic hope for our communities and the lives we build around them.

Go newspapers!

T

he second presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton on Oct. 9 was among the most dark and dreary we’ve ever seen, and we admit we were sitting on the edge of our seats for the first 15 minutes watching this surreal spectacle crackle with tension.

Two stories framed the surrealistic showdown more than any other: The first was Trump boasting about groping women, a story that cast the political world into upheaval just hours before the event.

The second was the revelations that the real estate magnate (legally) used a $916 million loss to avoid paying taxes.

These were the two of the biggest stories of the campaign. And they were both broken by newspapers — not cable networks, social media, websites or talk radio, but good old-fashioned newspapers.

The Washington Post and the New York Times picked up the stories that the television networks punted on.

That’s not a small feat considering the industry has laid off 40 percent of its reporters over the past decade.

The media has become a popular punching bag during this election cycle, and we’ve seen the discussion veer both ways: We’re heroes or villains depending on the beholder. Some even say that the choice between two disliked candidates is our fault because we didn’t do our jobs in the first place by vetting them — or that the media has been shielding one candidate or another.

There is some degree of truth to those criticisms.

National media companies have sadly become monopolies and have enjoyed too great an influence over the public’s flow of information, which in many cases, has now gone away from fair reporting to tipping the scales.

But it’s a discussion that will percolate long after the election.

Love or hate the press, it’s undisputed that newspapers continue to play a vital role in shaping the country’s debate, setting the tone and driving the national discourse — including the investigative work that fueled Sunday’s debate, as well as the other dogged, thorough and comprehensive work that has shaped this campaign.

The same applies to the local level.

But the future remains uncharted as the newspaper industry continues to navigate choppy waters.

Luckily for us, the pendulum is swinging back to print, and people more than ever are turning to their local newspapers for comprehensive and indepth reporting.

We’re reminded of something comedian John Oliver said in his much-discussed “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” segment on the challenges that face the newspaper biz, which made headlines earlier this summer for its defense of good reporting paired with a few hard truths.

“A big part of the blame is on us and our willingness to pay for the work that journalists produce,” Oliver said. “We’ve just grown accustomed to getting our news for free, and the longer we get something for free, the less willing we’re likely to pay for it.”

Bingo.

While Oliver made a lot of other assertions we disagree with — newspapers needn’t forsake investigative reporting at the expense of clickbait — we can’t emphasize enough that print plays a critical role in the media’s food chain, and that their gradual erosion would lead to a society run amok.

Small, private organizations such as ours are attempting to set a new course and return local media control to the grassroots where there is a balance of control between the media owner(s) and the community.

We’re a free publication made possible through advertising. So if you enjoy quality reporting, and have a vested interest in your community, frequent the businesses whose support make it possible for us to bring you the quality of reporting that shapes discussions across the North Country.

StefanikÊ endorsementÊ Ô indefensibleÕÊ To the Editor: If anyone had any doubts about Donald Trump’s sleazy and misogynistic attitude toward women, those doubts were dispelled by the latest Trump tapes.

This adds to the list of groups he despises — Mexicans, immigrants, the disabled, war heroes — the list goes on.

Republican congresswoman Elise Stefanik has said that Trump’s remarks are “inappropriate,” “offensive” and “wrong” yet she continues to endorse him.

Her endorsement is indicative of a larger problem: instead of using her own best judgement and voting in the interests of the people she represents, she

A

just toes the Party line.

For example, she voted to weaken Clean Air regulations in July 2015, a move that is contrary to the interests of her own district. Emissions from power plants in the Midwest are responsible for the acid rain which has already caused so much damage to Adirondack lakes and trees, and the legislation she voted for will increase that potential.

Her votes and her endorsement of Trump are indefensible and contradict her claim to be an independent voice in Congress. It is clear that her primary goal is to advance her own political career, and the best way to achieve this is to unquestioningly support the party leadership, regardless of the impact on her own constituents.

ENDORSEMENT POLICY

s we approach the upcoming election season we want to make an important distinction regarding candidate endorsements. With a free distribution in excess of 60,000 homes, our papers are inundated every election cycle with candidate endorsements. The only source of revenue our community publications receive to offset the cost of print, delivery and overhead is paid notices and advertisements. All candidate endorsements must now run either in the form of an advertisement or a paid endorsement notice and include the name of the individual making the en-

dorsement. The paid endorsement notice can be purchased in three sizes — a quick 50 words or less for $15; a 51-175 word endorsement for $50 or a 176-300 word endorsement for $75.

A paid advertisement will be based on standard advertising rates taking into consideration size and frequency according to the current rate card at the open advertising rate. For rates call Ashley at 873-6368 ext 105 or email ashley@denpubs.com.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

COMMENTARY

Redefining Trump’s ‘genius’

TiÊ CropÊ WalkÊ leadsÊ toÊ realÊ results

To the Editor: As a veteran and a taxpayer, I have to wonder what it would take to be a Trump supporter!

First Trump gets four deferments so he won’t be drafted and now it turns out he doesn’t even pay taxes to help pay for our military.

His supporters say this makes him a genius, but I say it makes him a coward who sends others to die so he can continue to not pay his fair share of taxes.

His latest attack against Hillary with regard to her “fidelity” to her husband is likened to hitting himself in the foot with a sledgehammer. He is a man who cheated on his first and second wives in public while married, trying to bring reproach on someone else!

His charitable foundation is a sham as it is nothing more than a “tax free” bank for Trump to use for a $20,000 portrait of himself and God knows what else.

Again, his supporters say this was a stroke of “genius!” I will admit Trump is a genius at pulling the wool over the eyes of his supporters, but it ends there.

I would guess if his supporters didn’t pay their federal taxes for two decades that they would be pounding rocks in Leavenworth prison!

Then there’s the business of Trump cheating thousands who spent money at his failed university! Florida’s Attorney General Pam Bondi, a Trump friend, dropped an investigation called for by Florida residents who were swindled after taking a contribution, and I would suppose this was also genius.

I think the word “genius” needs to be redefined as meaning “Someone who cheats, swindles and dodges responsibility!”

God Bless America.

To the Editor: Everyone is invited to join us on Oct. 15 in the annual Ticonderoga CROP Walk. We will meet at 1 p.m. at the Heritage Museum in Bicentennial Park for a 1, 2, or 4 mile walk. If you’d rather not walk, a car will drive you.

Wonderful things have been happening around the world with the funds raised by the 114,000 participants countrywide.

The UN reports that there are 50 percent fewer hungry people than 25 years ago. As a village gets a clean water supply, local families can plant their own crops and even have a goat or lamb. When mothers and children don’t have to walk for hours to find water they might even have time for school. When disaster strikes, our monies quickly go to help.

Last year, $2,700 was shared between our food banks in Crown Point, Hague and Ticonderoga.

You can call us to sign up or go one line at crophungerwalk.org/ticonderogany.

We also have a Facebook page (Ticonderoga Area CROP Walk) where photos from past years are posted.

Please invite a friend to come walk with you on Saturday, Oct. 15 at 1 p.m.

To the Editor: The saying is: “Like father like son.”

Young Trump put his silver tongue and foot in his mouth in public when he commented about gas chambers being heated.

Donald Trump Jr. — they did not heat gas chambers. They just pulled a plug. Zyklon B came from the shower heads and millions of people were gassed in this horrible way.

In the 1930s, when I was an elementary student, a nice gentleman showed up one day and told us if we were eating apricots, try to put the pits in a jar — and when the jar was full, to turn it in for a lollypop or candy, our choice.

We did well to eat apricots and collect pits.

In the meantime, my dad had a meeting at the temple and found out about this glorious collection of pits.

It was for Zyklon B manufacturing.

Thank God the season to harvest is short for apricots, for it was used to manufacture Zyklon B. To this day, when I eat apricots, I dispose of the pits properly and say a kiddush for the souls of the murdered Jews.

ThurmanÊ FallÊ FarmÊ TourÊ drewÊ hundredsÊ toÊ smallÊ town To the Editor: The annual Thurman Fall Farm Tour is over. Our small town welcomed hundreds of guests from near and far.

According to the hosts of the seven tour sites, guests came with an enthusiasm and curiosity to learn about our Thurman farms through demonstrations, tours and talks, and felt embraced by local hospitality.

They got pointers on how to read a llama’s body language, how maple products and quilts are made, how Windsor chairs are charmed out of lumber and jewelry out of silver.

Some tried unsuccessfully to lift a 450 pound timber by brute strength, then learned that, with a block and tackle, the job was possible. They nailed autographed boards to a new barn; they took hay rides; they painted and catapulted pumpkins, sampled foods and sat down for hearty county meals.

They voted for best quilts, scarecrows and most cleverly upcycled “stuff ” (with one voter marking his contest ballot for Donald Trump.)

When the day was over, the happy hosts reported that it had been their busiest Fall Farm Tour ever.

We credit this success to the cooperation among the hosts of the sites, each doing his or her own part to create an enticing attraction, some pouring hundreds of dollars into staff and samples, putting the needs of the event ahead of those of the individual.

Volunteers from the Thurman Station Association helped promote the event through press releases, social media, brochure distribution, banner hanging and sign posting. Everyone did what they could to make Oct. 8 a success. And that spirit of cooperation was the best part of the day, and the best part of our small community.

The Thurman Fall Farm Tour was made possible, in part, by Warren County occupancy tax dollars re-granted by the Thurman Station Association, with help from the First Wilderness Heritage Corridor, and funding through the NYS Department of State under Title 11 of the Environmental Protection Fund.

Ô RealityÊ checkÕ Ê onÊ MikeÊ Pence To the Editor: If you are a woman: Indiana joins North Dakota with the most restrictive laws against woman’s health. Not only Planned Parenthood, but the ability of a woman to make a choice even in cases of rape.

If you are a worker: Mike Pence used his own campaign money to repeal Indiana’s common construction wage laws. Workers in Indiana now do more work for less.

If you believe in education: Mike Pence declined an 80 million dollar grant that would have established a statewide Pre-K system.

His state has a D+ rating for the state’s infrastructure. Two interstate bridge closures.

His state’s per capita income dropped to 38th in the nation Seniors: He voted to privatize Social Security. And wants to voucher-ize Medicare!

Really folks? Think again!

HoldingÊ myÊ noseÊ onÊ ElectionÊ Day To the Editor: I am writing in response to the many letters in support of Donald Trump

by Mr. Windle of Putnam.

From the tone of his letters, I assume that he considers Trump to be the second coming of the Messiah.

Actually, the man is the biggest con artist since P.T. Barnum. I wouldn’t even consider him for dog catcher.

We don’t need an incompetent in the White House. We already have enough of them in Congress.

As for Hillary, I am not fond of her either. Bernie was my choice.

I don’t know much about Gary Johnson, as the media has chosen to ignore his very existence.

I have considered sitting this one out, but that doesn’t solve the problem.

So on Election Day, I will go to the polls and hold my nose and pick the least obnoxious one of the bunch.

Building better drugs Faster in the United States Peter J. Pitts

Columnist

B

reast cancer surgeon Dr. Laura Esserman sings to her patients as they go under anesthesia. She tackles any song request, whether it’s a top 40 hit or a Broadway ballad. This same patient-centric attitude drove Dr. Esserman to participate in adaptive clinical trials, a game-changing way to test new medications.

It’s past time that other researchers think beyond traditional clinical trials. Adaptive trials can make drug testing both more efficient and accurate. If regulators were to encourage greater use of adaptive trials and facilitate sharing of electronic health record data, researchers could deliver better drugs to patients, faster.

In a traditional clinical trial, researchers plan out every element of the trial -- from the number of participants to the type of data to be collected -- before they begin testing. They stick to this rigid master plan until the trial is complete.

But in an adaptive trial, researchers pre-plan certain modifications that they can make part-way through the trial, based on the results they’ve uncovered so far.

Think of it in terms of mapping a run. A runner might look at a map and realize that at one point, the road will fork. Instead of deciding whether to go left or right before he ever begins jogging, he might choose to postpone the choice until actually reaches the fork. Perhaps he’d like to observe which path is muddier or which path has less traffic -- and he’ll only know when he gets there.

Similarly, researchers administering adaptive clinical trials can modify their tests as they make observations. Like the runner, they have to pre-plan what choices they’ll make and when. But the more flexible trial formula enables them to alter the trial in response to real-world results.

Dr. Esserman’s trial, for example, personalized testing by splitting breast cancer patients into different groups depending on various measurements of their health. She tested a combination of therapies on these patients -- and only continued testing those that were found initially effective. By not having to run a dud treatment through the course of a standard clinical trial, the adaptive design reduced the cost, time, and number of patients needed for the trial.

The FDA currently permits adaptive trials in limited instances.

Letting researchers use this model more often would improve the drug development process.

Another way to improve the process is to enable doctors, insurers, and drug companies to share data on patients’ health outcomes after they take new FDA-approved medicines. By analyzing this data, they could uncover patterns that can’t be detected even in the largest clinical trials.

Changing regulations to permit greater sharing of such data would help researchers unveil rare side effects, complications, or “miracle” results that crop up.

Adaptive trials and increased data sharing would deliver better medicines to patients faster and with greater safety. That’s something to sing about.

Peter J. Pitts, a former FDA Associate Commissioner, is the president and co-founder of the Center for Medicine in the Public Interest.

EYE ON THE ARTS

Art as a ‘reflection of us all’

J

ohn Lennon, born this month in 1940, once said that his role in society, or any artist’s or poet’s role, is to try to express what we all feel.

“Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.”

The importance of authenticity in art cannot be understated. I believe that the perception of authenticity is key — even the people most removed from the art world can have the ability to see whether an artist is being truthful or deceptive.

When an artist is truthful, they have a special power; their work and uninhibited expression can truly inspire and garner genuine empathy.

Being relatable — or creating something that is universal — is oftentimes an effect of authenticity rather than of a goal set by the artist.

There are artists, musicians and writers abound in the North Country, all of whom host events every week to offer up their work for residents and visitors to experience.

Here are a few of their efforts: ROTA Studio and Gallery in Plattsburgh will host a performance by Jay Arner and Adrian Aardvark on Oct. 15. Jay Arner is a Vancouver-based synth-pop performer.

NY21: One debate down, two to go

First debate a sedate affair that sees candidates discussing trade, economy, veterans issues — and creepy clowns

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ALBANY — Candidates for New York’s 21st Congressional District met last week on the debate stage for the first time.

But despite the increasingly-hostile tenor of the race — the campaigns trade broadsides almost daily in a three-way battle royale — the debate was relatively muted as each candidate outlined their views on the economy, foreign policy and tax reform.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) is seeking to defend her seat against Mike Derrick, a retired army colonel from Peru, and Matt Funiciello, a Glens Falls bakery owner.

TAX REFORM In the wake of revelations that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump filed losses of $916 million on his taxes, all broadly agreed tax reform is needed.

Derrick called the system “rigged.”

“Our entire tax code, corporate and personal, needs to be redone so that it accounts for these kinds of things and people pay their fair share,” he said.

Stefanik said the current tax code was “riddled with special interest loopholes” and called for a “flatter, fairer, simpler tax code” that helps “pro-growth policies” while also helping working families.

The freshman lawmaker said she was confident Congress would work with whoever is elected to the White House next month to embark on policy changes, including a proposal put forth by the House GOP last December.

“I think a Republican Congress can

Mike Derrick, Matt Funiciello and Rep. Elise Stefanik participated in a debate in at the Time Warner Cable Studio in Albany on Oct. 3, 2016.

make that happen no matter who is in the White House,” Stefanik said.

Funiciello said the two major parties aren’t doing enough to expand the discussion.

The candidate called for a 10 percent flat tax, and a wealth tax of 3 percent on those with more than $10 million in assets.

These themes, and their delivery, set the contours for the hour-long debate moderated by “Capital Tonight” host Liz Benjamin and Time Warner Cable reporters Matt Hunter and Brian Dwyer: Stefanik largely discussed her record and pointed at a broad list of accomplishments and policy proposals; Derrick offered general brushstrokes on the issues,

and Funiciello reveled in blasting the two-party system for not going far enough with the policies he said are necessary to pull the nation back from the precipice.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Stefanik defended last year’s $63 million state-brokered deal that saw Alcoa retain 600 union jobs at their Massena aluminum plant through massive subsidies, citing the number of working families who would be effected by its closure.

But to bolster the sagging economy at the federal level, the lawmaker pointed at the roadmap she has sketched out during her two-years in office. That includes working with Canada to strengthen transnational economic partnerships and

workforce development efforts.

Stefanik also referred to legislation like last year’s $305 billion highway bill as beneficial for the local economy.

Derrick called for widespread infrastructure investments through a national infrastructure land bank.

“We put in seed money from the federal government, and then we leverage private and public funds, and we create the capital that we need to invest in our country to bring back some of these towns, some of these rust belt towns that have fallen so far behind,” he said.

Funiciello said: “They can talk about it, but they won’t do it,” referring to the major parties. >> See DEBATE | pg. 11

Debate << Continued from | p. 10

And he referred to the Alcoa subsidies as, “One of those big nice cardboard checks that politicians like to stand with as if they’ve actually done something. No you haven’t — you’ve just given welfare to a massive corporation,” he said.

A better use of those funds, he said, would be their allocation to retraining efforts.

TRADE Sparks flew in the otherwise mild debate when the candidates squared off on the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the proposed trade pact between the U.S. and 11 other nations designed to keep China in check.

“I would not have voted for TPA as Congresswoman Stefanik did,” Derrick said, referring to the fast-track authority that allows the administration to negotiate deals before they head to Congress.

Derrick said the TPP is “unfair” and would put constituents at a disadvantage.

Funiciello said free trade is “global wage slavery” and called Stefanik’s vote “unconstitutional.”

“That’s fast-track, that’s not how things should be negotiated — not in secret, we live in a democracy,” he said.

Stefanik said: “I don’t support TPP.” She added: “It’s clear that the TPP will not pass, and that’s because I’m a member of Congress and I’m one of the majority members and voices that said, ‘This is something that my district doesn’t support.’”

Stefanik said she had reservations on how the legislation would address dairy provisions; environmental standards and currency manipulation. But it is still important that Congress has a vote in any future deals.

On Derrick not supporting TPA, Stefanik said: “That means he doesn’t support fair trade and he doesn’t support congressional authority.”

“If you vote to fast-track the TPP, it is logical that you then support it, and she has flipped on this under pressure,” Derrick said. “This is a contrast on what she says and what she has done.”

“Mike clearly doesn’t understand the difference between TPA and TPP,” Stefanik shot back. “Mike Derrick actually had to correct his first campaign ad because he didn’t know the difference between TPA and TPP.” VETERANS ISSUES Stefanik touted her efforts to aid the district’s veterans since taking office, including helping constituents reclaim $1 million in VA benefits and getting legislation passed to assist caregivers of wounded veterans.

Wait time issues at the VA clinic continue to be a concern, she said, and more efforts should be made to har-

ness technology and utilize local health providers.

“I don’t support privatizing the VA. But I do think when you’re in a rural area, you need to give veterans the option to access care through the VA Choice Program, which was a bipartisan bill that passed in the previous Congress.”

Derrick said he and his wife, also a veteran, have an ongoing relationship with the VA. “Access to care for those of us that are in rural areas is the key issue here,” Derrick said.

The candidate called for enhancing community-based outpatient clinics to offer more services. Derrick also criticized Stefanik for voting for a recent appropriations bill that reduced expenditures for veterans programs.

Stefanik said that vote was “well-funded.”

“I will continue to vote in support of funding for the VA,” Stefanik said.

Funiciello also criticized that vote, and said single-payer healthcare would remedy issues at the VA. “A lot of soldiers I talked to this past year are not particularly impressed with that decision, and are very upset,” Funiciello said. “It directly impacts a lot of real human beings.”

PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS Funiciello said he supports Green Party candidate Jill Stein.

But in response to a moderator’s question, he admitted working with Congress might be troublesome.

“Look at how well they work with each other right now, which is not at all. They’re not doing anything of value.”

Derrick called Trump a “liar” and a “cheat.”

“I support Hillary Clinton because she brings with her ideas,” Derrick said, citing the candidate’s infrastructure and Medicare expansion proposals. (He also cited the overturn of Citizens United, which Benjamin noted would require cooperation from both Congress and the Supreme Court.)

And Stefanik discussed her rationale for supporting Trump, offering a list of ironplated GOP orthodoxy, including the need for tax reform, reducing regulations, replacing the Affordable Care Act, preserving gun rights and the future of the Supreme Court.

“I don’t support Trump’s proposals to ban people from the country based upon their religious affiliation,” Stefanik admitted.

“That’s an issue where I disagree.”

LIGHTNING STRIKES The candidates also outlined strategies for combatting terrorism, immigration reform and how they

would help farmers located in the North Country counties declared as disaster areas by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Stefanik said she is pushing for a more stringent classification that would free up more resources for droughtaffected farmers in Jefferson and Lewis counties.

The exchange resulted in Funiciello calling for farmers to pull out of meat and dairy farming altogether, citing their contribution to global warming.

“Livestock agriculture was determined in 2006 to be the root cause,” Funiciello said. “Our consumption of meat and dairy was actually the issue.”

Benjamin appeared stunned: “Are you suggesting that farmers in the North Country should all get out of the meat business?” she said.

“Oh, absolutely,” Funiciello said.

The Green Party candidate also said he would not be in favor of using experimental drone technology to provide high-speed internet to underserved areas in the Adirondack Park.

“Are the drones going to be successful at sending those signals back and forth as they are at killing our enemies in the Middle East?” Funiciello said. “Because if they are, then I don’t want them to be doing that over the Adirondack Park.”

Despite their policy differences and minor spats, all three found common ground in at least a few areas.

During the lightning round, each candidate agreed that vehicles should not be allowed in the Boreas Pond Tract, and that people were overreacting to the epidemic of clown sightings sweeping the nation.

“But it is creepy,” Stefanik said.

The next debate is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 17 at SUNY Adirondack in Queensbury. The third and final debate is scheduled for Oct. 24 in Plattsburgh.

Golden Days of October

M

Teens “rock the center” with DJ Lindsay Meade at the first Teens Only Welcome Back Dance at the North Creek Tannery Pond Center last month.

y first submission to the paper 18 years ago was about the beauty of autumn in the North Country. I would be remiss if I failed to write on this subject again.

October is a golden month. I’ve heard the word “golden” used to describe something really good, something special.

October is a special month here in the Adirondacks. The changing color of leaves makes our little corner of the earth beautiful.

My land is ringed with maple trees. When I sit at the kitchen table and look out of the windows over the sink, I see yellow, gold, orange and red leaves. These are all warm colors and, although the days are cool and the nights cooler still, there is golden warmth to October.

In my front yard stands a big old maple. There used to be two maple trees standing sentinel. One was felled after a lightening strike split it in two. There’s no telling how long its partner will remain. The trunk has a large hollowed out section.

But each fall she sports a mane of golden leaves.

I have visitors every evening. My four footed friends are drawn to the old apple tree whose branches are laden with ripe fruit. I enjoy watching the deer as they graze on my land.

There is a big black cat that stalks the premises. It walked past the deer without incident.

The pastoral beauty of October is short lived. Soon the golden leaves will cover the ground. We must enjoy it while it lasts. Kilmer said it well: “I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree.”

Meet the Candidates Night set for Oct. 20 in Thurman

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

ATHOL — Candidates for local and regional offices will be presenting their views to the public at a Meet the Candidates Night set for 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Oct. 20 in the Thurman Town Hall.

In local races to be decided Nov. 8, voters will choose who is to fill two Thurman town board seats. Former Thurman Town Clerk Cynthia Hyde will be challenging incumbent board member Susan Shepler for a threeyear term; and Kathy Templeton, chair of the Thurman Democratic Party, is challenging incumbent town board member Gail Seaman for a one-year seat.

This non-partisan event is to be moderated

by Thom Randall, founder of the Adirondack Journal and free-lance reporter, as well as Kathy Smith of the Chestertown Chamber of Commerce. The event is sponsored by the Friends of Thurman and Sun Community News.

Beginning at 6:45 p.m., citizens can obtain sanctioned 3”x 5” cards from the event moderator, on which they can write questions, one per card, to be directed to the Town Board candidates, who will each have 90 seconds to answer. The questions will be gathered from the audience at 7 p.m. and then will be reviewed, edited if necessary and collated.

The use of sanctioned cards only is to provide a more diverse set of questions from a greater number of citizens, rather than a few

dominating the course of the discussions.

According to the guidelines of the League of Women Voters which moderates debates nationwide, submitted questions that read as political statements or allegations will be rephrased by the moderator toward issue-based questions, to allow for appropriate discussion of the underlying topic.

Each of the Town Board candidates will have the opportunity to make a two-minute opening statement on their qualifications, experience and goals in office. If a candidate is mentioned by another candidate in their response to a question or their initial presentation, the candidate mentioned is allowed a one-minute response. Candidates will also have an opportunity to present a 90-second closing statement.

Candidates may also be offering campaign materials to the public at the event.

Several regional candidates have said they plan to attend: incumbent 114th District state Assemblyman Dan Stec (R-Queensbury) and his Green Party challenger Robin Barkenhagen; Steve Ruzbacki, Green Party candidate for the 45th District of the state Senate; and Matt Funiciello, Green Party candidate for U.S. Congress, 21st District.

Also, Ted Wilson and Rob Smith, two candidates for Warren County Family Court judge are scheduled to attend.

Cynthia Hyde has submitted a letter citing that she may not be able to attend due to a prior commitment.

Saratoga-North Creek Railway to offer weekend stays in Pullman train cars

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Passengers on the Saratoga-North Creek Railway will soon be offered a novel experience — a throwback to a more gracious era of travel a century ago.

As of Jan. 13, the railway is to begin offering a ski-train service in which passengers stay for two nights in one of three Pullman sleeping cars parked on a side track in North Creek.

This premium service will accommodate up to 53 passengers.

Saratoga-North Creek Railway General Manager Justin Gonyo announced the new service Sept. 22 at a Warren County

Public Works Committee meeting.

“This is a very unique service, something you really can’t get anywhere else in the nation, reminiscent of the old Denver-Rio Grande ski trains out west,” he said, noting that the Pullman overnight initiative “rebrands” Saratoga-North Creek Railway’s conventional ski train service which was cut back due to declining ridership last year.

After connecting with Amtrack’s northbound Adirondack trains from New York City, the new Pullman ski trains, complete with luxury lounge cars and dining cars, will be departing the Saratoga Springs station at 1 p.m. Fridays to spend two days in North Creek.

The ski trains will return to Saratoga Springs at 6 p.m. Sunday,

providing a connection with the southbound Amtrack train.

During the trips, passengers can enjoy beverages and hors d’oeuvres. The return trip will feature a full dinner aboard the train.

Gonyo said the North Creek station will be totally renovated — transformed to resemble a rustic lodge with a bar, pool tables, shuffleboard games, rustic couches and televisions — to accommodate the new Pullman service passengers.

When these trains arrive in North Creek, passengers can step into this renovated station that resembles an rustic but upscale hotel lobby, have their ski equipment stored, then relax and socialize, he said.

Warriors to battle Fort Ann for league title

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — For decades, Lake George High School has fielded soccer teams loaded with scholar-athletes, that not only have won championships, but have embodied good sportsmanship.

Thei school’ssoccer programs, among the first to be launched in the region, have won the respect of coaches, sports fans and commentators across the region.

This year is no exception.

The 2016 Lake George boys soccer team is enjoying a nearperfect season, with a win-loss record of 12-1 in the Adirondack League and 13-2 overall.

On Friday Oct. 14 at 4:30 p.m., the team competes against Fort Ann for the Adirondack League championship, in a game on the Hudson Falls High School soccer field, neutral ground

for the two squads.

Fort Ann’s 2016 season record as of Oct. 12 is 15-0 overall, 11 months after winning their first-ever Class D state championship in the sport. The team is now ranked No. 1 in New York State for Class D. The Warriors’ one league loss this year was on Oct. 3 to Fort Ann in overtime. Their other loss was against Peru, a Class B school ranked among the top 10 in the state.

Blake White, lake George boys soccer coach for 35 years, expressed confidence that his team will be very competitive against Fort Ann this second time around. He said his team was expecting to reverse the tables on Fort Ann for the overtime loss.

“The first time, we were up 1-0, but we didn’t take advantage of our opportunities,” he said. “In the first half we had possession of the ball 65 percent of the time and later we misfired. We fell into their game instead of having them play our

game. We’ll do better this time.”

The Warriors have had a spectacular season otherwise, scoring 96 goals in 2016 as of Oct. 11, and with the goals likely to be scored in their final regular-season game Oct. 12, the team will presumably set a school record for goals scored.

Pre-season, White was concerned about his team’s defense, because three of his four 2015 All-Star defenders graduated in June. But the younger players have more than stepped up, he said, noting they’ve only given up 5 goals this year.

Due to their outstanding season record, the Warriors are now ranked No. 9 in the state for Class C. “Our players are a great group — they’re very together,” he said. “This is the best team I’ve ever had in my career — We have speed, skill and a lot of experience; a great combination.

The players remember getting knocked out of Sectionals last year and want to see how much further they can go. If they bring their top game to each matchup, well be tough to beat.”

WarEagles cruise over Granville, now eyeing Sectional play

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — The Lake GeorgeHadley Luzerne football team regained their momentum Oct. 7 as they defeated Granville 30-6, preserving an opportunity to earn a berth in Section II’s Class C Northern Division tournament.

A balanced offensive attack aided by solid blocking gave the WarEagles the victory, coach Jeff Bennett said Monday, recalling the game.

“This is the best our offensive line has blocked all year long,” he said.

Running back Nick Motta scored two touchdowns — one in the first quarter and

the second one in the next stanza — and Quarterback Shane McCabe followed with a 22-yard touchdown run of his own to establish their initial 24-0 scoring advantage.

Conversions on these three touchdowns were successful, with Konnor McHugh scoring the first on a run, Clay Moody scoring the second likewise and McHugh accomplishing the third via a pass.

Granville answered the trio of touchdowns with one of their own later in the second quarter, with Darren McKittrick carrying the ball into the end zone.

Moody scored the final WarEagles touchdown on a short run in the third quarter, and soon after Bennett freely substituted, giving all his athletes playing time.

Bennett praised McCabe for his play-making, as well as his athleticism against Granville.

“McCabe was outstanding — he both ran and threw the ball well,” he said.

Lake George’s offense was relentless, maintaining the ball through much of the game, Bennett continued.

“We had several long drives that chewed up the clock and we effectively put the ball in the end zone when we needed to,” he said, noting the WarEagles’ ground game totalled more than 300 yards.

“Running back Clay Moody had a fantastic game — he’s very physical and tough to take to the ground,” the coach added.

Bennett said Granville put up a formidable

fight.

“Granville is a very physical team and they played tough — they never stopped regardless of the score,” he said. “It was a very good game.”

The victory improves the WarEagles’ season to 3-1 in their division and 4-2 overall.

To compete in the post-season, the WarEagles will have to beat top-seeded Hoosic Valley Saturday Oct. 15 on the Indians’ home turf, Bennett said.

“They’re big and holding down first place in our division, but I like the matchup,” he said. “Our kids are pumped up — they’re excited and working hard in practice.”

WCS volleyball team wins one for their mentor

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg High School Volleyball team gave its new coach Davida Paniccia a gift this past week — the first league win of her coaching career.

The Burghers beat Corinth 3 sets to 2 in an Adirondack League game held Oct. 6 in Tomahawk territory.

The game was a rematch from an earlier non-league showdown between the two teams, which ended up 3-1 in favor of the Burghers.

As of Tuesday, the Warrensburg squad was 1-9 in Adirondack League play and 2-11 overall. They were scheduled to face Granville on Oct. 12 to close out their 2016 season.

Davida Paniccia, an English teacher at Warrensburg Central, began coaching volleyball in September following former Burgher volleyball coach Robin Mahler.

Although Mahler had made considerable progress in rebuilding the languishing program, she was edged out of the coaching role as of this year due to a provision in the local teacher’s union contract.

Paniccia has had limited exposure to volleyball and coaching, but she has embraced a positive attitude towards the sport and the future of the volleyball program at Warrensburg Central.

A 2009 graduate of Warrensburg High, Paniccia didn’t play volleyball for the school, but was a member of the Burgher hockey team that fought their way into the state finals.

Paniccia studied English and education at SUNY Oswego, and she’s now pursuing graduate studies at SUNY Albany in Curriculum Development and instructional techniques.

Earlier in the season, Paniccia talked about how she was dedicated to working with her players to build skills, sportsmanship, and

knowledge of the game.

“I’m working toward the girls playing as a cohesive team,” she said. “This is a great group of athletes, and I’m excited for the future — they give the sport their all in every practice.”

In the Oct. 26 game against Corinth, the Burghers did indeed give it maximum effort. They were down 2-0 and on the road to defeat when they battled back, winning two extremely close sets and they then sealed the victory by dominating the final 35 volleys.

The set scores were 18-25, 21-25, 27-25, 2826 and 10-25.

For the win, veteran senior Jayden Cain had nine assists, three kills and nine aces. Junior Kelly Angell, an experienced player had five kills, three digs and four aces. The matchup was Corinth’s annual Pink game — donations were collected in this year’s edition, and the proceeds were donated to two local families, each of which with a member fighting cancer.

NY-21 << Continued from | p. 1

who has a shockingly consistent record of objectifying and belittling women, not to mention veterans and Gold Star families?”

Derrick said.

“If Congresswoman Stefanik was really an independent voice, why has she not broken from her party leaders in joining the droves of others rejecting Trump, and where is her voice when he makes comments like this?”

In what has shaped up to one of the most explosive moments of the presidential campaign, the revelations of the comments by the Washington Post, caught by a hot mic during a 2005 taping of NBC’s Access Hollywood, cast the Trump campaign into crisis.

Derrick gleefully hammered Stefanik on social media all weekend, using the hashtag #EstablishmentElise as his campaign sent fundraising pitches to supporters.

A Stefanik campaign spokesman did not respond for comment.

Derrick, a retired army colonel, has made tying Trump to Stefanik a central part of his campaign, and has criticized the freshman lawmaker in the wake of numerous controversies throughout the election, including Trump’s comments last week that returning combat veterans are “not strong” and “can’t handle it.”

And a campaign commercial released last week further sought to cement that connection with voters, featuring an audio clip of Stefanik expressing support for the candidate juxtaposed with footage of Trump mocking a disabled reporter, among other controversial statements.

UNEASY RELATIONSHIP Stefanik, first elected in 2014, has avoided discussing the real estate developer, and has generally remained silent on national politics during the tumultuous election cycle. The lawmaker also pointedly declined to attend the GOP National Convention, opting instead to tour the district.

But the youngest woman ever elected to Congress offered her most full-throated support yet — if not an impersonal one — for Trump during last week’s congressional debate in Albany.

Stefanik offered a list of iron-plated party orthodoxy, including the need for tax reform, reducing regulations, replacing the Affordable Care Act, preserving gun rights and the future of the Supreme Court, as her rationale for supporting his campaign.

“I don’t support Trump’s proposals to ban people from the country based upon their religious affiliation,” Stefanik admitted. “That’s an issue where I disagree.”

Stefanik also criticized Trump for his failure to release his tax returns. “I think it raises the issue of transparency and comprehensive tax reform,” Stefanik said.

GROWING TIDE Stefanik joins the raft of Republicans who have denounced his comments while stopping short of rescinding support for the controversial figure.

House Speaker Paul Ryan said on Friday he was “sickened” by Trump’s comments and withdrew an invitation for a joint campaign appearance in Wisconsin over the weekend.

A number of high-profile party leaders have withdrawn their support, including Sen. John McCain, the party’s nominee in 2008, Sen. Mike Crapo and Sen. Kelly Ayotte.

Senate Republican Conference Chairman John Thune said Trump should step aside in favor of Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. And Stefanik’s colleague Rep. John Katko, a Republican who represents the Syracuse area, called Trump’s comments “offensive and disgusting.”

“His comments cannot be justified and crosses every line you can imagine,” he told Syracuse.com.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo, too, waded into the debate on Saturday.

“I think it was disgusting on a basic human level,” Cuomo told NY1. “And I think the Republican politicians in this state have to condemn the activity, condemn the verbiage – silence is acceptance and no New Yorker should accept what was said here.”

Cuomo added: “Any Republican politician in this state who continues to stand with Trump is going to be unseated very soon in the political arena because no New Yorker will tolerate this.”

And on Sunday, Essex County Democratic Committee Chairman Bethany Kosmider urged her Republican counterparts to “repudiate and disavow” their support for Trump.

SOCIAL MEDIA DELUGE A spirited discussion unfolded on Stefanik’s Facebook page over the weekend.

By Monday, her original statement had nearly 200 comments, reflecting the rhetoric pervading the nuclear-level national discourse which has only amplified after Sunday’s combative presidential debate.

Many applauded her position.

“You had my vote before, you have my vote now and I applaud you for wording it perfect,” wrote a man under the name Kirk Gilchrist.” Thanks for your leadership and willingness. Most would have simply been quiet. In my mind, this is great leadership.”

Others said she had already said too much: “You just lost my vote Ms. Stefanik, and my support and your lawn sign just went in my garbage can,” wrote Thomas C. Powlin. “Very disappointed and regretting I donated to your campaign.”

But the overwhelming majority appeared to blast the law-

maker for not taking a more firm stand: “Your continued support for Donald Trump is vile and a disgrace to women everywhere,” said Nora Frateschi Miller.

“You will no longer be under consideration for my vote. He needs to quit while he can.”

Stefanik, for her part, has avoided further comment since the controversy emerged late Friday.

Derrick continued to play offense on Monday, releasing statements from a number of women across the district expressing their outrage.

“As a young woman from the North Country and an elected official, I keep holding out hope that Elise Stefanik will make good on her promises to represent me in a way that I can be proud of,” said Town of Plattsburgh Councilwoman Meg LeFevre. “Personal and professional success in the North Country, especially for women, is not possible without the support of other women and men who respect, inspire and uplift us every day. Stefanik cannot call herself a role model to our young girls while continuing to support Donald Trump.”

PARTISAN DIVIDE A POLITICO/Morning Consult poll released on Sunday revealed a sharp divide over the leaked tape.

According to the poll, 74 percent of Republican voters said party officials should continue to support Trump. Just 13 percent think the party shouldn’t back him.

While that same poll revealed Clinton leads Trump in the four-way race for the White House by four points, 42 percent to 38 percent, a NBC/WSJ poll released Monday shows Clinton with an 11 point lead.

It’s unclear what the backlash would mean for local races.

The New York Times reported on Monday Ryan told GOP lawmakers that his sole priority for the remainder of the election would be to defend congressional Republicans.

Trump scored decisive victories in New York during the Republican primary, winning all 12 counties in the congressional district with 52.7 percent of the vote.

And Stefanik carved out a 19-point victory over challenger Aaron Woolf, a Democrat, in 2014.

Just four weeks ahead of the congressional race, polling in the three-way race remains scant. But registrations in New York have surged before the Oct. 14 deadline.

A record number of new voters have enrolled in the state Department of Motor Vehicles’ automated online system last month, the governor’s office announced last week.

The website processed more than 140,600 applications, including more than 78,400 applications from first-time voters, an all-time high in both categories.

That’s in comparison to 9,200 voter registration applications, including nearly 3,400 from first-time voters, last year.

And in September 2012, the website processed more than 13,700, including nearly 5,200 from first time voters.

Collaborative efforts like these were among the brightest parts of his tenure leading the agency, he said.

“It almost makes me wish I was commissioner again — but not quite,” Martens said.

“It’s these types of projects that hold the key to the future of the Adirondack Park.”

<< Continued from | p. 1

A route between Northville and Lake Placid could include an overnight stop in Long Lake and connect travelers to both the backcountry and frontcountry.

And a Lake Placid-Keene route could include Newcomb, an experience that would allow participants to experience the Santanoni Preserve and McIntyre Tract.

Possible networks, of course, also hinge on the progress of a state Department of Conservation recreation trail in the central Adirondacks and the future classification of Boreas Ponds.

But each route would ideally begin and end in a community.

“Instead of communities competing against each other, this connects communities,” Dadey said.

Existing lodging, Drury said, would be utilized whenever possible. Organizers envision those services existing on a spectrum from “rustic to five-star,” from lean-tos and yurt-type structures to places like the Hotel Saranac.

Some could be full-service, while others may contain a small-but-dry sleeping space.

“It’s got to be a quality service — it can’t be a yawner,” Drury said.

Quality lodging, in part, is a key to success, he said. Other critical planks include worldclass trails, public and private partnerships and dependable transportation infrastructure and services: If participants traverse from Point A to B, for instance, how do they get back to their vehicle?

All of these questions will be hashed out during the hearings.

Underpinning the proposed system are demographic changes, both at home and shifting trend in global travel preferences.

The Adirondack Community-based Trails and Lodging System project aims to develop a series of trail networks across the region. Key locations will include lodging facilities at the end of a day-long trek, each with varying amenities. A series of workshops will be held across the Adirondack Park began on Oct. 11, and will conclude on Nov. 15 at Paul Smith’s College.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD Walking remains a popular activity for the aging population, particularly family walks, which are growing in popularity.

And internationally, foreign guests aren’t necessarily looking for high risk adventure, said the organizers, but are rather seeking authentic nature experiences that aren’t disorienting or stressful.

Of course, challenges remain.

Funding appears to be heavily reliant on state funds — the Department of State, who awarded them a $50,000 grant last week, is currently bankrolling the effort — and the organization needs more torchbearers to help champion the project.

Local leaders said they were optimistic.

“Anytime that you can find something to attract tourism to the area, there’s going to be a benefit to town,” said Saranac Councilman Jerry Delaney, a member of the project’s advisory committee.

If guests like what they see, they may relocate here, Delaney said, which would have the additional benefit of services springing

up within the community and saving residents a trip to Plattsburgh.

“I’m excited about it,” said Indian Lake Supervisor Brian Wells. “This is a novel idea.”

Offering guests the ability to stay overnight on state land, he said, is one of the reasons why he can support limited state land acquisitions.

But Wells also cited concerns about access. It may be difficult, for instance, to ferry in supplies to campers if roads do not allow motorized vehicles, or if the land is privately owned.

The project must also hash out the legalities governing the construction of enclosed structures on state land, the supervisor said.

“Are we going to be allowed to put a yurt on state property?” Wells asked. “There’s got to be some give and take.”

The ACTLS already has friends in high places.

Former DEC commissioner Joseph Martens expressed delight over the proposal during its rollout in May.

Community leaders, planners, economic developers, outdoor enthusiasts, lodging owners and those interested in the development of Adirondack hut-to-hut routes are encouraged to attend.

Workshops will be held in the following locations: Star Lake: Tuesday, Oct. 11 at 7 p.m. Clifton-Fine School Old Forge: Thursday, Oct. 13 at 7 p.m. Town Building Saranac: Wednesday, Oct. 19 at 7 p.m. Saranac Town Hall Ticonderoga: Thursday Oct. 20 at 7 p.m. Community Building Elizabethtown: Monday, Oct. 24 at 7 p.m. United Church of Christ Lake George: Wednesday, Oct. 26 at 7 p.m. Lake George Town Hall, Tupper Lake: Tuesday, Nov. 1 at 6 p.m. Goff-Nelson Library Lake Placid: Thursday, Nov. 10 at 7 p.m. The Conference Center Paul Smiths: Tuesday, Nov. 15 at 7 p.m. Paul Smith’s College: Joan Weill Student Center For those unable to attend meetings, a website will be available to provide input at adirondacktrailsandlodging.org/wiki-map.
