Where has all the diesel gone?

Kickerville Mobil still open, but without fueling services

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

LONG LAKE — The Kickerville Mobil Station has been without gas or diesel for about a month, with no firm date for the fuel to return.

A tank replacement project is expected to be complete, “sometime next year,” according to Melodie Dutheil , station employee.

Remaining services are business as usual, with daily specials, deli items and a full one of groceries.

Signs on the pumps state there’s no diesel or gas available. Such notice hasn’t posed any major issues said Long Lake Town Supervisor Clark Seaman.

“Initially, there were a couple inquiries,” he said of calls that came to the town office.

“People were quick to figure it out,” he said of

finding the closest diesel pump, as Stewart’s Shop, the other gas station in town, doesn’t offer diesel.

“It depends which way you’re going,” he said of where customers head to fill up.

Tupper Lake to the North and Indian Lake to the South are the closest locations, Seaman believed.

At Stewart’s Shops, an employee said they’ve not seen much of an increase in gas customers.

Kickerville Mobil Station has been under the ownership of David Lamos for three years. Amos did not return a request for comment.

Around town, rumors that the station of closing and that the building has no heat are not true, said Dutheil.

She said some of the lack of heat rumors may have been prompted by a temporary heating equipment issue that was solved last winter.

A sign at the Kickerville Mobil station in Long Lake tells customers the business is no longer providing gas or diesel fuel services. A tank replacement is expected sometime within the next year.

CHESTERTOWN — The excitement is building in Chestertown, as Bright Beginnings readies to open.

The new child care center is tucked away at 18 Be At Ease Lane, a hidden little drive off Route 9. The setting is serene, with Panther Mountain the beautiful landscape overlooking the soon to be installed play yard. Upon first inspection, you might think the property is a new build. Instead, it’s a compete renovation of a former gym.

Three rooms await infants though school age children all full stocked for fun and learning.

“This is my dream job,” said owner Carrie Remington of deciding to open the facility. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in childhood education from SUNY Plattsburgh and followed it up with her Master’s in curriculum, instruction and special education from Concordia.

Her knowledge of preschool learning will be an asset to the children who attend the center, as she will lead the pre-school room.

“It’s data driven instruction,” she said of the curriculum, focusing on the needs of the children, with kindergarten readiness a priority for that age group.

While letters, counting and early literacy will be a focal point for the group, “There will be a lot of learning through play,” she said.

“Pre-school is my favorite. I really can’t wait to get going.”

For now, Remington is waiting what is hopefully her last review by the state Office of Children and Family Services.

“They’ve been wonderful.

They take all my calls and have helped me every step of the way,” she said of the oversight in getting licensed.

She’s currently wrapping up some minor details in the facility which should be her final tasks to complete. >> Story Continued | pg. 3

Planning board seeks comment on firehouse plans

By Bill Quinlivan

news@suncommunitynews.com

INDIAN LAKE — The December meeting of the Indian Lake Planning Board played to a standing room only crowd of concerned citizens and members of the Indian Lake Board of Fire Commissioners and Volunteer Fire Department members.

At issue is the garnering of public comment regarding the Planning Board’s consideration of the approval of a conditional use permit for the relocation of the Town Fire Hall to the 50year old building that previously housed the IGA market in town.

The Indian Lake Fire District 1 Board of Fire Commissioners submitted the application to the Planning Board for a conditional use permit to convert the former market building into a fire hall because of the need for a larger space than what ILVFD has in the current Fire Hall on Route 28 in town next to the Stewart’s.

The Board of Fire Commissioners has hired Bernier, Carr and Associates (BCA) as engineers for the project of transforming the former market building into a new fire hall.

Andrew Jackson, BCA project architect was present at the December planning board meeting, as was David Tomney, attorney representing the Board of Fire Commissioners.

Together, they presented a set of basic architectural and site plans to illustrate the interior and exterior appearance of the building, its egress and parking lot layout associated with the one-acre property. The plans exhibited a fire hall having an Adirondack Style façade

She credits her husband Cody, whom she will celebrate her one-year anniversary with this week, and her father-in-law, Rick Monroe of R&B Construction, with support and encouragement in the major undertaking.

She purchase the property just over a year ago, with Monroe’s vision and handiwork a major piece in it’s completion.

Some unique items, like a child’s urinal in the bathroom, came after insistence of Remington’s father, John VanDerwarker.

Toys, books and even some of the furniture came by way of family, friends and community members, after learning the center was in the works.

“I really hope that once I am up and running to be able to give back to the community,” she said.

While she will man the pre-school room, she’s already got two staff members on board for the toddler and infant room.

Though not concrete yet, Remington is hopeful to be part of a new state program encouraging a continuum of care, allowing in-

with three garage doors that would accommodate as many as six trucks, offices and restroom facilities.

As far as parking, the plans reflected a total of nine spaces available for public use, seven directly behind the small town park at the front and center of the parking lot and two additional spaces in the right rear of the lot in front of the Fire Hall.

The plans as presented showed the rest of the lot devoted to a horseshoe-shaped driveway allowing the Fire trucks easy entrance and exit from the Fire Hall to the T-shaped Intersection of Route 28 and Route 30. Additional parking spaces restricted for use by Fire Hall personnel were shown on the plan on the North side of the building.

During the presentation, both Jackson and Tomney made much of the point that designated public parking spots would be shared with the two adjoining businesses. There was also some mention of the possibility of diagonal parking spaces being added along the North side of Pine’s Store, but those were not indicated on the plan. BCA estimates that the cost of acquisition of the former market building and its transition into a Fire Hall would be $1.6 million.

The one-acre property sits between Pine’s General Store and the Indian Lake Restaurant, Tavern and Liquor Store and, in addition, abuts the seven-acre Townsend property.

This seven-acre property was a car dealership and service station, as well as being the location of the former Jane and Cathy’s restaurant and a Laundromat. The property extends up behind businesses on Main Street reaching as fants and toddlers to be in a mixed setting. It allows care providers to remain with the same children from infant through potty-training, when they typically move to a pre-school setting.

“If you have a two-year old you’ve had all along, you’ll know how to comfort them.

You’re going to know that child,” said Jessica West who will take charge of the toddler room.

She’s got a Master’s in education, as well, and look forward to bringing that knowledge with her.

If the center is allowed to utilize the continuum of care model, they’ll join only one other full care facility in the state to conduct the new practice.

While the official opening date is expected in the near future, Remington is currently creating her roster and enrolling children while awaiting the nod from the state. She’ll be open Monday through Friday, but like the curriculum, her hours will be driven by the needs of the families.

For enrollment information, pricing and other details, contact Remington at 518-4940046.

far North as the Indian Lake Post Office.

Many see this as important to the decision of the Fire Hall’s relocation because the Townsend property is part of the subject property of the Hamlets III initiative and will be part of the focus of an upcoming Comprehensive Plan for the town of Indian Lake.

The Chazen Companies of Queensbury have been contracted to develop the Comprehensive Plan in conjunction with an Indian Lake Planning Committee made up of community residents.

During the presentation of the plans to those in attendance, Attorney, David Tomney, explained that the current owner of the market building, Rouses Point Construction, Burlington, Vt., was extremely anxious to get the process moving forward.

As such, the submission of the conditional use permit for consideration to the Indian Lake Planning Board was the most logical step in the process to show progress to the owner, while being both fiscally and logistically responsible to the best interest of the Board of Fire Commissioners and the Community at large.

Though the general consensus of those attending the meeting was that the Fire Department does need and deserves a larger and more adequate facility. However, there were a number of concerns shared across many of the attendees: • The former market building is considered by many as the center of the economic hub of the town and there was much questioning as to whether this is the appropriate location for a Fire Hall. This was by far the most widely

shared opinion of those commenting.

• Connected to the above point, the abutment of the proposed location for the Fire Hall to the Townsend Property in the opinion of many speaking during the meeting has an important limiting effect on the revitalization focus of the upcoming Comprehensive Plan and indeed severely limits the vision of the Hamlets III initiative.

• Many in attendance voiced the opinion that the consideration of the appropriate location of a new Fire Hall should be rolled into the needs to be considered by the upcoming Comprehensive Plan and not considered outside of the plan development.

• Some number of attendees raised concerns over the estimate of $1.6 million seeming to be too high vs. research that they had done on buildings of a similar size accomplished with new construction. This estimate was also addressed by some in attendance and questioned with regard to funding by the residents having to cover with taxes the necessary bonds to be used to fund the project.

• Questions were raised regarding the fact that the farmers’ market and other festivities have been successfully using the parking lot.

Attendees wanted to know where festivities were supposed to be held if the Fire Hall is relocated to this site. This objection was met with provision that the old Fire Hall would be used for some training activities as well as be made available as a community center of sorts once modifications to that building were undertaken to make it more comfortable for such uses. >> Story Continued | pg. 12

Issue Divide

e can talk all we want about how to best address these repeated mass killing events, but our leaders continue to miss the most important step.

You do not build a house or construct a child’s Christmas toy in one simple step. You start at the base and work your way to the finish. It requires different tools and skills to address each unique aspect. It also requires patience and the recognition of time while paying close attention to the directions.

These soft target killing sprees must stop and our leaders repeatedly make the same mistake every single time by using them to promote their political agendas and vow to put “our” arms around an issue that is just too big to address with only one approach.

Ask yourself, what have any of our leaders done to address these issues in the last 25 years, except talk and blame the other party for their failure for not building bi-partisan consensus on the other side?

First and foremost we need to keep dangerous people away from destructive weapons of all types.

We know that potential weapons today include not just guns but knives, cars, planes, explosives, poisons, gases, alcohol & drugs, unstable people, and in some cases even religion.

We know most of those items by themselves are valuable everyday items in our lives but when mixed incorrectly or used by misdirected individuals they can and have become deadly.

You can not address all those items and the many more I’ve neglects to include with one approach. It requires us to divide the issues and address each individually, the same way you construct a home, build a shelving unit or put together a child’s toy…. One focused step at a time.

I learned a long time ago when taking over troubled businesses; you do your best to set priorities and try to fix one thing each day. After many days you’ve made headway. After many months you are on your way to solving problems.

After many years your efforts begin to pay dividends.

Unfortunately, there will always be more problems to solve and in order to keep the dividends flowing, the same process must continually be applied to the new problems that will undoubtedly arise in the future.

Cooler heads need to prevail

L

ike everyone else, we’re struggling to understand this rash of violence at home and abroad.

The nature of these attacks is hard to stomach and it’s difficult to understand what’s driving them.

We’re unsettled and saddened by not only this jarring violence, but also feel as if we’ve entered an uncertain new era as the dueling threads of terrorism and mass shootings have seemingly wound themselves together to form a new breed of unpleasantness.

Not surprisingly, the rash of tragedies has led to a jittery public.

There’s been no shortage of politicians seizing on this fear and capitalizing on the tragedies before all the facts are known.

Both sides have been quick to assign blame, be it on the availability of guns or what some perceive to be lax national security policies.

Muslim leaders across the United States are already reporting a new wave of xenophobic sentiment and hateful episodes not seen since the Sept. 11 attacks.

The fear-mongering being spewed against Islam by several GOP presidential hopefuls, including Donald Trump and Ben Carson, has been particularly odious, including calls for a national registry and the closing of mosques.

ISIS, who took responsibility for the Paris attacks, thrives on this knee-jerk reaction.

This escalation of rhetoric plays into their hands and is used as a recruitment tool, attracting disaffected people like Tashfeen Malik, the San Bernardino perpetrator whom authorities believe was radicalized by the terrorist group.

The combination of widespread access to guns and hate speech is a noxious combination.

Shaming American Muslims and putting them on the defense is not the answer.

But neither is sweeping gun control reform.

With 300 million firearms circulating in the US, any policy seeking to restrict firearms from circulation will not work.

In the wake of these shootings, more and more guns are being pumped into the country’s national bloodstream. It’s a weapons boomlet fueled by those seeking safety and as a possible bulwark against future legislation.

The actions are amplified by officials like Paul Van Blarcum, the Ulster County Sheriff who sparked a firestorm last week when he urged licensed gun owners to carry their weapons in public.

How about Europe? Haven’t they nipped mass shootings in the bud?

While advocates point at Australia’s massive gun buyback program following a 1996 mass shooting as a success that helped curb gun homicide, the same program is unlikely to be successful here, owing to both our sacrosanct gun culture, our porous borders and our climate of entrenched political polarization.

More sensible solutions, as others have pointed out, are universal background checks, longer waiting periods and banning sales of firearms to those on the country’s no fly lists.

The American public agrees with these proposals.

An October Gallup poll, which was taken shortly after a mass shooting left 9 dead at an Oregon college, determined 55 percent of Americans said they supported stricter gun control laws.

In that same poll, 86 percent of Americans said they favored legislation that would require universal background checks for all gun purchases in the US, while a recent Quinnipiac poll found 77 percent of respondents were in favor of closing the so-called terror gap, the loophole that allows those on the fed-

eral government’s terrorist watch list to purchase firearms.

That measure was defeated by the Senate GOP last week, and was one that President Obama took them to task for in his address on Sunday night.

We agree with the president that lawmakers should immediately get to work on crafting policies that will protect the American public, but throwing legislation at the problem does little but appease the party faithful.

At the same time, it should be made easier to flag the mentally ill.

While we’re not calling for a McCarthy-type system of citizen surveillance and spying, it might not be a bad idea for all of us to be more alert of our surroundings and alert authorities of red flags as they pop up.

Time and time again after these incidents, we’ve learned the perps have left a long trail of unheeded alarm bells prior to committing their heinous acts, but it goes unreported due to onerous privacy laws, cutbacks in mental health funding or other loopholes.

To be clear, while we continue to have serious reservations about our state’s controversial gun control legislation, the SAFE Act provision giving judges the power to strip firearms from those found to be mentally unfit is a model that should be emulated nationwide.

We cannot, however, get behind the calls from the far left to outright ban semi-automatic weapons like the ones used by the perpetrators in San Bernardino, Colorado Springs and in other massacre sites across the US. As we’ve seen here in New York, it would make otherwise law-abiding citizens criminals, while loopholes would undoubtedly arise that would circumvent the regulations.

Criminals would still secure weapons, leaving the public increasingly at the mercy of law enforcement agencies for their protection, while their trustworthiness and credibility has also been called into question in a parallel national debate.

We cannot entirely legislate our way out of what has become a national crisis, but failure to act is no longer an option.

COMMENTARY

GiveÊ toÊ UnitedÊ Way

FeelÊ goodÊ aboutÊ giving

To the Editor: Our community has experienced some tough times in the past few years.

Many of your friends, neighbors and coworkers need help today that they didn’t need 2 or 3 years ago.

The United Way campaign is one of the easiest ways to help give back to our community because 100 percent of the funds raised stay here in Clinton, Essex and Franklin Counties and directly support programs and services provided by our 42 partner agencies.

I am passionate about this campaign because I have seen firsthand just where a large percentage of our community stands today-our neighbors are hurting. But our community has always demonstrated the willingness to volunteer and contribute to these 35 United Way agencies who serve more than 80,000 people every year-and that number continues to grow.

Our campaign has an aggressive goal-to raise $725,000 this year. To achieve this year. To achieve this goal, we have to engage more members of our community. If you have not donated in the past, you are the one that can make a difference in the lives of your neighbors who need it most. Consider the few dollars you spend each week on coffee.

We always have had wonderful people here in Clinton, Essex and Franklin Counties that truly care about their neighbors...and that is what really makes our community great.

If you have a United Way campaign at your workplace, please support it and talk up the need and value to our community to your friends, family and coworkers. If you don’t have an employee campaign but would like to give to the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc., please call 5630028. You can also visit our website unitedwayadk.org, for more information on the 42 agencies served or to view our campaign video.

Kathy Snow Plattsburgh

To the Editor: The Adirondack region has over 750 nonprofit organizations listed with New York’s Department of State. This group, as a whole, does a number of things daily that touch all of our lives. Some organizations are protecting our life-sustaining environment for the future; many others are helping our youth grow up to be strong, responsible, contributing members of our community; some deal with the horrors of domestic abuse of women and children; and several agencies help those near the end of their lives.

In the small towns that make up most of the Adirondack region, the nonprofit sector is best represented by the people. When you give to a charity, an organization, or even an institution, what you’re really doing is supporting the people that make it tick.

When you give to PRIDE of Ticonderoga, you’re helping the staff and volunteers invest in the community’s future. When you give to High Peaks Hospice, you help people like Joseph Dufour and Brenda Stevens provide the best possible care for their patients in Warren County. Your donations help the dedicated volunteers at the Adirondack Community Outreach Center provide clothing, food, mentoring, and many other services in North Creek and Johnsburg. A gift to the Indian Lake Library means Nancy Berkowitz and her team can operate an excellent community resource for residents of Hamilton County.

We could go on and on. We hope you will look within your own community to see the many and increasing needs that require our attention—even as we remain vigilant about needs elsewhere. With issues like family economic instability, and costs of living increases, many more people will need support in the coming months, and perhaps years.

Our charitable dollars can have a direct and often immediate impact on helping people meet basic needs. If the economy is affecting those of us fortunate enough not to think about putting food on our table, then imagine the impact it’s having on those who almost always need to think about the source of their next meal or rent check.

Make giving back a family affair by involving children, parents, siblings and others in your giving decisions. Consider making a financial gift or volunteering your time for a local charity.

Please consider contacting Adirondack Foundation to discuss how we can partner with you to give back or visit AdirondackGives.org to make an immediate impact today.

PrayÊ forÊ theÊ USA! To the Editor: As Trump said on TV “Pray for the victims of the terrorist attack, then be prepared for World War III. It is not coming, it is here.”

A sheriff down south of here said, “If you have a pistol permit, start carrying.”

I would like to go one step further. If you have a carry permit, call your local sheriff and request he opens up his department pistol range to citizens and provide his firearms training staff to qualify you in safety, marksmanship, and firearms law. Just because you own a hand gun no more makes you a marksman then a hammer makes you a carpenter!

I would urge each and every gun owner to call Cuomo and not ask but demand the gun stupid act be repealed. We need to go back to being a nation of armed marksmen and women. Armed citizens stopped the Japanese from continuing from Hawaii to California at the beginning of WWII. Most of the local conservation clubs have shooting ranges. Maybe the police could use them to train shooters. Something tells me, we are going to need a citizen militia very soon.

Stay safe, stay armed, keeping the faith.

George Phillips Chestertown

Alexander From page 4

once again for the people.

I fear that’s a risky gamble but it shows how desperate many are becoming.

With the world in turmoil, a frustrated electorate at home, a government that is paralyzed by in-fighting, and a national media that no longer serves as the nation’s watchdog, the nation’s voters must figure out a way to put aside its partisan interests and make a critical decision in the best interest of the entire nation, if not the world.

The nation has always found a way to select the right leader at the right time.

Our system of government and the American people will once again be put to the test as designed by our nation’s founders to cut through the bragging and over-stated, unrealistic promises to make a choice in 2016. Let us hope we make the right choice and set the nation on a new course to prosperity and peace.

DENIM DAYS

When the Indian Lake Central School Faculty and Staff put on their jeans for a Denim Day, it seems they reach for ones with deep pockets. Two times a month during the school year, teachers and staff set aside a day to wear jeans to school. In return for dressing comfortably, they make a donation to a specific community organization. Fundraising efforts in November are for Operation Santa.

This non-profit organization began in Hudson Falls forty years ago as a way to help families in need at the holidays. Indian Lake Faculty Association has proudly participated with this organization for 38 years. Funds that are raised for Operation Santa benefit families in the Indian Lake community by providing money for clothing and food for the holidays. Two Denim days were held in November so children in our community will be warmer this winter.

Little Bits Christmas Music Gordie Little

Columnist

S

ome radio stations began playing Christmas music before Halloween.

I love the holidays, but this is a bit much. Back in my radio days, we had strict rules about when the carols and secular songs were spun on the turntables (yes, there were turntables at that time).

After Thanksgiving, there was only one per hour. They became more frequent as December 25th grew closer. It wasn’t the 18th that the Christmas music was “wall-to-wall.” We wrote, produced and recorded numerous, special Christmas programs. We played many parts as we repeated some of the same shows each year and added new ones.

It was hard, but happy work for those of us in that medium way back when. I, for one, remember them with great fondness. We broadcast live from area churches. We played dozens of school musical presentations.

We did our bit to spread Christmas joy using all 1,000 watts of radio transmitter power. The season was magical and we tried to keep it that way.

Some of that wonder, charm and delight has been worn thin by garrulous glitter and mandatory gift-giving. We all get caught up in the process, but at our house, Kaye and I struggle to keep it beautiful and simple, at least in our hearts.

That’s not easy with such a huge family, but we firmly believe that LOVE is the essence of it all and we have plenty to go around. Our taste in holiday music ranges from the ridiculous to the sublime. “I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas” would fit the former and “We Three Kings” would define the latter.

I’ll wager none of you recall who recorded the hippopotamus song. It was Gayla Peevey who was just 10 in 1953 when radio stations began to play it regularly. I am pleased that there are still those who can sing the lyrics with Kaye and me. It was a favorite for our late son, Gary.

It’s also possible you are not familiar with the Plattsburgh connection attached to “We Three Kings.” I’m here to fill in the blanks. It was penned by John Henry Hopkins, Jr. in 1857. He wrote both the words and music for a New York City Christmas pageant. It wasn’t published until 1863. Hopkins graduated from UVM and became rector of Trinity Episcopal Church, Plattsburgh in 1872.

He would no doubt stir in his grave if he heard the sacrilegious lyrics we applied to his wonderful carol when we were kids.

Smoking on a rubber cigar, indeed.

I beg you not to forget the traditional carols as you try to keep up with the frantic rush of the season. But we must also let our hair down occasionally and sing silly songs like “Hippopotamus.”

And, if anybody cares, It is proper to refer to hippopotamuses as the plural, if you feel silly talking about hippopotami.

EYE ON THE ARTS

I heart u!

I love the collective us, those who live in Northern New York.

There is no reason to tiptoe around the subject: we know it, and they know it. The people from the country, or even the suburbs, are different than those who live in urban environments.

Some say the difference is because we don’t have the same opportunities as urbanites; others think it’s because they don’t have the same opportunities we enjoy. Both are probably true.

Awesome After living in large cities, small cities, the suburbs and rural areas, I believe rural areas have a disproportionate number of people who go above what is required. Because of their moxie, leadership skills or cleverness they bring a spark, and because of it, the event or project is even better.

Baby, it’s dark out there For example, we see more stars than those living in a city, it’s a fact. On a clear night, free of light pollution, we can see galaxies of stars. Not everyone has access to a majestic evening sky — it’s a lifestyle choice.

Museum celebration The Clinton County Historical Association will present their annual Holiday Open House at the Clinton County Museum. The two-day event is Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 12 - 13, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The public is encouraged to attend without charge. Take a self-guided tour and see their unique

Gordie, please pass the yellow crayon However, those historians weren’t satisfied. They wanted to make their open house even better.

They “turned up the volume” by inviting a local man about town: Gordie Little. Little is curious by nature, so he will be stopping by the open house on Saturday, Dec. 12 from 1 to 3 p.m. After checking his favorite exhibits, Little will sign copies of his recently-published coloring book for adults. The book, titled “Little’s G littles,” can be purchased at the museum store. The Clinton County Museum is located at 98 Ohio Avenue in Plattsburgh. For more information about this program, please contact the Clinton County Historical Association at 561-0340.

A few more notes The Keene Valley Congregational Church will be jamming when the Market Street Brass performs a mix of seasonal music. The six local musicians are from Keene, Keene Valley, and Chestertown.

The ensemble will assemble in Keene Valley on Dec. 20 at 4 p.m. Students are free and there is a suggested donation of $10 for others.

Falalalalala Three dynamic musical groups will take the stage for a free concert at St. Peter’s Church on Cornelia Street in Plattsburgh on Saturday, Dec. 12. Champlain Valley’s Sweet Carolines, who we all know and love, are presenting a program called “Towne Meeting.” The outfit is known for their powerful vocal harmonies, eclectic musical styles and their wicked sense of humor. As if that wasn’t enough, the Cumberland Bay Show Chorus is also in the lineup.

Don’t miss this heartwarming musical event for the entire family.

Thought from around the campfire Several years ago, we had some friends visit. They were from a densely populated area. While they were here, we didn’t do anything special, just the usual country stuff. On the way home, smelling like a campfire, Jack made an observation: “All your friends tell a good story.”

I hadn’t realized it before, but I knew he was right.

“We spend time outside looking at stars, walking in the woods, and like tonight, encircling a bonfire,” I said. “We are frequently in situations that encourage conversation. We’ve had practice telling tales and spinning yarns.”

In the not too distant future, I will be describing’s the night I saw the Geminids meteors, you can take my word for it.

I frequently use information sent to me by our readers — put your newest adventure or upcoming activity into the mix. My email is linda@suncommunitynews.

Thanks for sending in your ideas, you people are awesome!

Pictured above: A model train show comes to Glens Falls on Sunday Dec. 13 from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. The show will be held in two locations. The larger venue is the Civic Center in Heritage Hall located at 1 Civic Center Plaza. A movie, and the club’s setups will be 190 Glen Street. Admission is $5 for adults and free for anyone 12.and under. Call 518-260-5189 or email upstatemodelrailroaders. com

Star light, star bright At the same time I discovered the observatory, I read about the Geminids Meteor Shower, which is happening now. The observation area will not be open to the public that night. It will be up to you to see the light show, if interested, pay attention.

The Geminids meteors are bright and appear multicolored, which is a bonus for an already spectacular event. These meteors seem to originate from the Gemini constellation (look it up) and span from Dec. 7 - 17. At the peak, Sunday, Dec. 12 and Monday, Dec. 13, on a clear night there will be around 120 sightings per hour.

Optimum visibility is either mid-evening, between 9 to 10 p.m., or between midnight and dawn. The waxing crescent moon provides a cover of darkness for the meteor shower.

Remember: You want a clear night. Next, find a location void of extraneous lights. Finally, look up.

Affiliates of the observatory: Way to bring it by sharing the information!

Thank you.

Kicking it up In Tupper Lake, there are numerous wild places to see amazing twinklings from above. However, it wasn’t enough for some people in Tupper Lake — they want more. As a result of their desire and tenacity coupled with member donations, they kicked it up a bit.

Now Tupper Lake has a place called the Adirondack Public Observatory (APO).

Additionally, there is an affiliated outdoor space called Roll Off the Roof Observatory (RORO). I assume the name came from the extremely steep roof. At ROR, they offer free public stargazings with an astronomer and the use of some of their equipment. These sessions are on the first and third Fridays of the month, from now until Labor Day, weather permitting. There is no preregistration: it’s first-come, first- served.

Observations begin 30 minutes after sunset.

Before heading out, make sure it is a cloudless sky. That information is available by calling 359-6317 or 359-3538. You can also go to their website, apobservatory.org or visit their Facebook page.

The ROR is at 178 Big Wolf Road in Tupper Lake. Plus, there is a map on the website.

Well done, astronomers from Tupper Lake. Well done.

Return of the leagues: MVAC, CVAC back for basketball

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — While the move to the Northern Soccer Division seems here to stay, the same cannot be said for the Northern Basketball League.

After the two year, three division experiment started, it is now over, as Section VII basketball will return to the traditional two conference format of the Mountain Valley Athletic Conference and Champlain Valley Athletic Conference.

However, the change back to the traditional leagues does not come without some changes.

Lake Placid, who had their boys team in the MVAC and girls team in the CVAC prior to the NBL, will now play entirely in the MVAC. Another defector from the CVAC is Seton Catholic, who will now play in Northern Division of the MVAC. While previously under a three-division format, the MVAC will return to a Northern and Southern division for the 2015-16 season. Northern Division schools include Chazy, Seton Catholic, Willsboro, Westport, Elizabethtown-Lewis, Keene and Lake Placid.

Wells, Crown Point, Indian Lake/Long Lake, Minerva/Newcomb, Schroon Lake and Johnsburg make up the Southern Division.

The CVAC will also return to a two-division format, with Plattsburgh High, Saranac, Peru, Beekmantown and Northeastern Clinton making up Division I, while AuSable Valley, Northern Adirondack, Saranac Lake, Moriah and Ticonderoga will make up Division II.

Classification Some changes have also come to where teams will be classified come sectional playoff time.

Six teams will vie for the Class B title as Peru, who has been a Class A school for the past two seasons, returns to Class B to join Beekmantown, Northeastern Clinton, Plattsburgh High, Saranac and Saranac Lake.

Four teams will vie for the Class C title, with Northern Adirondack, who played Class D in boys soccer, opting to stay in Class C for

basketball, being joined by Northern Adirondack, Seton Catholic and Ticonderoga.

As always, the biggest pool of potential Section VII champions comes from Class D. Lake Placid, whose girls played as a Class C team, will now play solely as a Class D team, along with Moriah, who boasts both defending sectional champions and the two-time consecutively state semifinalists in its boys program.

Joining those teams in the Class D mix are Chazy, Crown Point, Elizabethtown-Lewis, Indian Lake/Long Lake, Johnsburg, Keene, Minerva/Newcomb, Schroon Lake, Wells, Westport and Willsboro.

The defending sectional champions include the Moriah boys (state semifinalist) and girls in Class D, Northern Adirondack boys and girls (state finalists) in Class C, Saranac girls and Plattsburgh boys in Class B and the Peru boys and girls in Class A.

Playoffs While the regular season is still over two months from completion, the sectional playoffs will begin Tuesday, Feb. 16: Tuesday, Feb. 16 - Class B girls quarterfinals, Class D girls preliminary round Wednesday, Feb. 17 - Class B boys quarterfinals, Class D boys preliminary round, Class C girls semifinals (at Beekmantown) Thursday, Feb. 18 - Class C boys semifinals (at Beekmantown) Friday, Feb. 19 - Class B girls semifinals (at Northern Adirondack), Class D girls quarterfinals Saturday, Feb. 20 - Class B boys semifinals (at Northern Adirondack), Class D boys quarterfinals Tuesday, Feb. 23 - Class D girls semifinals (at AuSable Valley) Wednesday, Feb. 24 - Class D boys semifinals (at AuSable Valley) Friday, Feb. 26 - Section VII girls championships at PSUC Fieldhouse (Class D 4:30 p.m., Class C 6:15 p.m., Class B 8 p.m.)

Saturday, Feb. 27 - Section VII boys championships at PSUC Fieldhouse (Class D noon, Class C 1:45 p.m., Class B 3:30 p.m.)

While Angie Stellabotte (left) and the Schroon Lake Wildcats return to Division II of the Mountain and Valley Athletic Conference, Samantha Spear and the Peru Eagles return to Division I of the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference as well as into the Class B championship picture, dropping from Class A, where they had been the previous two years.

States The Section VII/Class C winners will receive a bye to the regional championship game, which will be played Saturday, March 5, at the Fieldhouse. The Class D champions will have to face the Section X winner for the right to play the Section II champion in the regional final, with boys playing in Section II and girls playing at the Fieldhouse. The Class

B champions will start their state playoffs at the Section II champion, hoping to advance to travel to the Section X champion with a trip to the final four on the line.

The NYSPHSAA boys state championships will be held March 11-13 at the Glens Falls Civic Center, while the girls state championships will be held on the same dates at Hudson Valley Community College.

nother week has past. The weeks seem to go much faster the older we get. We try to fit so much in each week. Are we taking the time to enjoy the season? So far our season sure has been a mild one.The frost has really been heavy but pretty on the trees in the early morning hours.

Hunting season is now over. There was no snow for tracking. Hope the hunters did get to do some hiking and enjoy the great woods.

Oh! I remember when dad use to get up early and get the horses ready to load the wagon for their journey to move hunting parties in the woods. Some times the weather would be so bad. Snow falling off the trees down dads neck as he past the low branches. Now the tea,s are not allowed to go in the woods. How times change as so often we are told what to do and not do. Still the Adirondacks are beautiful.

On Dec. 6, Nancy Tutungian Berger was in concert at 3 pm at the Methodist Church in North River and at 6 p.m. at the Oneida Community Church in Queensbury. What a beautiful time joining in with her as she sang Christmas Carols.

Fred and Ruth Allen from Union Beach, New Jersey enjoyed a few days at their River House at the Glen. They shared with the Sodom Community Church families some of the foods from their Food Pantry so folks could have extras to prepare for the

Christmas holiday.

Nathan Lorensen took quite a fall and had to go by ambulance to the hospital but was checked out and everything was okay. Only some bruises.

Scotty Jo Millington has to have some extensive surgery on his eye and area to remove cancer, Alonzo Conlon and son, Aaron took a hike to Big Shanty on Saturday morning. They put up a tarp to sleep under. Quite nippy before morning. They enjoyed a little hunting in the area that Bert Robbins use to hunt. Also, Earl and Daisy Allen. One of my childhood memories dad sitting on watch and Mom took Fred and I “barking” on the cobble to try and spook a deer to dad.

Suzy Virgil, Annie and Kayla Millington, Keisha Sprague, Dezore and Khaleah Cleveland and I went to Queensbury to do some Christmas shopping for the Community Compassions. We all enjoyed going to Pizza Hut for supper. Fun time.

Geneva Wolfe is at Tri-County Nursing Home for rehab.

The Community Choir did a wonderful job singing at the Tannery Pond on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon.

Another reminder that the Sodom Community will have their Christmas Program at 6 pm on Dec. 13th. Everyone is welcome.

Happy Birthday to: Naomi Noel, Jeffrey Morehouse, Patrick Morehouse, Caden Allen, Harlee Bradway, Dale Millington, Josie Gadway, Sara Cleveland, Leland(Le) Morehouse, Jean Russell, Joan Fowler, Sheila Hitchcock Morehouse, Yanden Cleveland, Larry Bacon, Kailey Hayes,

November 2015 will be remembered as being warmer than normal and near record dry, with only a trace of snow. It was not an encouraging start to the Winter sports season nor was it great for hunters.

The average high temperature was 48.5 degrees and the average low was 26.7 degrees giving us an average of 37.6 degrees, 2.5 degrees above normal and the 6th warmest on record. The warmest November was in 1999 when the average temperature was 40.2 degrees. The coldest was in 2013 when the average was 30.4 degrees. The highest temperature, 66 degrees, was recorded on Nov. 12, and the lowest, 14 degrees, was recorded Nov. 14, Nov. 19 and Nov. 24. There were 794 degree days bringing our seasonal total to 1574.

Melted precipitation, mostly in the form of rain, was 1.52 inches, 2.01 inches below normal and the second driest on record. The

driest November was in 2012 when only 0.67 inches was measured. The wettest November was in 1983 when 7.16 inches fell. Our seasonal total is now 35.83 inches, 3.14 inches below normal. There were 13 days with measurable precipitation, with the greatest amount, 0.54 inches, falling on Nov. 19.

Snowfall for the month was a great disappointment for those who are ski enthusiasts as only a trace was recorded here in Riparius.

Only a trace also fell in 2004, 2006, and 2009.

The November with the most snowfall was in 1997 when 21.1 inches fell. Last year we had a very snowy Thanksgiving as 15 inches blanketed the area making it a very white Thanksgiving.

The river reached it highest level, 4.70 feet on Nov. 2, and its lowest level, 3.47 feet, on Nov. 12.

Stec sets town hall meeting series NORTH CREEK — Assemblyman Dan Stec had scheduled a series of town hall meetings throughout his district in December. Each of the four town hall meetings will take place in one of the counties Stec represents.The public is encouraged to attend. One will be held Tuesday, Dec. 13, from 4 until 6 p.m. at the Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek.

Church to hold candlelight Christmas Eve service NORTH RIVER — The North River United Methodist Church will be holding an early candlelight Christmas Eve Service Sunday, Dec. 20, at 7 p.m. Pastor Steve Andrews will preside over this service. All are welcome. The church is located on 194 13th Lake Road. For more information contact Amy Sabattis 251-2519.

Fire house << Continued from | p. 3

• Another concern shared by many of the attendees was the fact that the parking available to visitors in the summer months would be drastically reduced from what is now available given that shown on the plan. It was pointed out that this was especially true for both residents and visitors having campers and boat trailers in tow.

• Questions of traffic safety were raised over the fire trucks having to enter the busy intersection of Routes 28 and 30, especially in the summer months.

• A number of questions were raised by attendees regarding the property already owned by the Board of Commissioners on Benton Road across from the Highway Department and why that is no longer being considered an appropriate site for a new fire hall. Commissioners in attendance responded that the cost of building from the ground up was estimated at nearly $4 million, but it was not made clear in the conversation if that estimate was indeed based on building a facility that was indeed an “apples to apples cost comparison” to the current one proposed.

• There were also a number of objections raised by attendees who felt that not enough potential locations had been looked at for the siting of the new Fire Hall and strong suggestions that other locations should be sought and other structural resources searched given the $1.6 million estimate to utilize the former market building in the center of town.

Moving forward, it is expected that the application may also be subject to review by the Lake Champlain – Lake George Regional Planning Board. Even if the conditional use permit were granted by the Indian Lake Planning Board, the purchase of the market building would be the subject of a permissive referendum.

The Planning Board requested the applicant prepare a revised set of plans showing the addition of the parking spaces discussed and elements discussed with regard to areas of the property on the East and South of the building. The revised plans to be submitted should also clearly reflect property lines per a recent survey. These revised plans should be made available for the next meeting of the Planning Board at 7 p.m. on Jan. 6, at the Town Hall on Pelon Road.

The public comment period remains open and those wishing to comment should forward comments to arrive before Jan. 6 to: Irene Hutchins, Planning / Zoning Board Secretary, P.O. Box 730, Indian Lake, N.Y., 12842.

Law practices to merge

GLENS FALLS — Two well-known regional law firms have announced plans to merge their practices and expand services available to their clients.

Kimberly M. Wells and Sterling T. Goodspeed have agreed to join their two firms with offices in Glens Falls and Johnsburg.

“The idea is to provide a broad spectrum of legal services both to the Glens Falls area and the entire Adirondack Region,” Wells said.

The new firm, Wells & Goodspeed will maintain physical offices at 40 Dix Avenue, Glens Falls and at the intersection of Rtes 8 and 28 in Johnsburg.

“Merging our two offices permits us to make more legal services available in the Adirondacks while adding depth to the Glens Falls practice,” Wells said.

In addition to handling real estate matters, estate planning, divorce and family court practice, the new firm will add criminal defense to its service areas.

Goodspeed, who served two terms as Warren County District Attorney and ten years as Hamilton County Assistant District Attorney will again handle defense work as he concluded his prosecution work to facilitate the merger.

“Kim and I were opposed to each other in a difficult trial some years ago,” Goodspeed recalled. “I always remembered her as a skilled practitioner and importantly, a good person. The idea of working together to build something of significance is something we both find exciting.”

The firm will joined by associated Linda Richards, who brings with her two decades in the U.S. Air Force Jag Corps, as well as experience as an administrative hearing officer.

Additionally, paralegal and support staff joining the newly merged firm include Sandra Dubay, paralegal, Susan Goodspeed, paralegal and Sarah Brennan, legal secretary.

The merger is effective Tuesday, Dec. 1, and the two firms can be reached at both 743-0455 and 251-2702.

Holiday luncheon announced LONG LAKE — The friends of the Long Lake Library will hold its annual ladies holiday luncheon Wednesday, Dec. 16, at St. Henry’s Parish Center.
