Rodeo dreams

Stannard earns spot in pro circuit

By Christina Scanlon

CHESTERTOWN — The Grayrider Ranch in Chestertown is a relatively new venture for Theresa Stannard and her husband, George.

They are hopeful that when Theresa joins George in retirement from the New York State Police, the ranch will be in full swing.

It’s not the only recent challenge for Theresa to take on, as she quickly earned a spot in the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association, just months after deciding to up her game from amateur status.

Theresa, now 39, credits her path from an upbringing with strong values.

“We grew up with responsibility,” she said of her childhood >> Story Continued | pg. 2

NEWCOMB—The public comment period is open concerning proposed amendments to the Camp Santanoni Historic Area Unit Management Plan. The Adirondack Park Agency will accept comments through Jan. 29.

The purpose of the plan, according to an APA press release, “is to establish a management regime to preserve the important historic structures and maintain improvements to Camp Santanoni in a manner that enhances the public’s enjoyment and understanding of the Forest Preserve.”

The plan suggests continuation of limited signage, installation of a fire alarm system and fire retardant coatings on all buildings and enhanced state Department of Environmental Conservation response to fires and other emergencies.

A cultural landscape study is also proposed as part of the plan, to aid the DEC in a better understanding of how landscape modification and management led to the development and operation of Camp Santanoni. This knowledge will be used to guide the future management and interpretation of the historic area which encompass 32.2 acres of land and include: the Gate Lodge Complex, the Farm Complex, the Main Camp Complex and the Newcomb Lake Road. The plan further breaks down proposals for each section: • At the Gate Lodge Complex, a new pole barn will accommodate operation and maintenance equipment needs, creation of a portion of a major snowmobile trail to pass through the complex, public snowmobile use will continue to be prohibited in the historic area.

• The the Farm Complex, a replica of the barn on the surviving foundation will be constructed to restore the interpretive and administrative functions of the complex, adjustment the boundary to incorporate the about 2.5 acres of surviving remnants of the apple orchard and vegetable garden and incorporated into the Historic Area., while reducing boundaries around the main Farm Complex, with an equal area reclassified to Wild Forest. Management of the landscape to maintain the look and feel of a working farm.

• At the Main Camp Complex, develop a water source for firefighting at the Duck Hole Bridge on Newcomb Lake, add a pumpable tank privy or Clivus‐Multrum toilet to accommodate visitor use. >> Story Continued | pg. 12

Early days, ponies and Uncle Bill “I learned bareback. When the pony wasn’t fast enough, I’d move up to a faster one,” she said. They were her father’s working ponies, short and strong, built for pulling. It wasn’t long before she’d outgrown ponies.

Her uncle Bill Ryder was a bachelor. She and her brothers, “were like his kids,” she said.

At age 12 or 13, she recalled, Ryder introduced her to something that would heavily influence and shape the direction of her life.

“It was my first Gymkhana,” she said of the event, consisting of patterned horse races. It was barrel racing that struck Theresa. “That was the beginning,” she said.

She made friends with girls competing in the Adirondack Gymkhana Association. It was then, she graduated from ponies to horses, as her friends allowed her to ride theirs.

At age 14, her parents made a deal with her.

“If I worked and saved my money, they’d match it,” she said. By the end of the summer she’d earned $250. With $500 in her pocket she bought her first horse.

She named her Satin Beauty and she had her for the next five years.

“She taught me a lot, but I plateaued on her,” she recalled. “She wasn’t fast enough.”

She’d been working every job she could at Ridin’ Hy Ranch, from lifeguard to house-

Getting faster, Pete and a fateful week It was on Pete, now 26 and retired to Theresa’s back field, that she began competing in barrel racing.

“I never won money on Pete until the week my uncle Bill died,” she stated, with silence to follow during an interview in her home this week.

She doesn’t need to say another word to explain the impact Ryder continues to have on her life.

It’s on her face and it’s in her daily life, working on her horse three or four times a week, and a newly installed booth at her ranch overlooking the ring carries Bill’s name.

“He was a huge inspiration. He’s a huge influence,” she said, pouring over photos of the day her husband and sons, Colton and Tristan, surprised her with the booth dedicated to Bill.

The week he died unexpectedly in a car crash was the same week she was to leave for college in Brockport, having completed two years at SUNY Adirondack. It was there, her life took direction into law enforcement.

The long gray line She took her state police test while still in college, earning a spot in the academy at age 24.

“People are familiar with the ‘thin blue line’,” she said, but New York State Troopers know the term long gray line.

“The uniforms haven’t changed since they were started in 1917,” she said, noting it was two women that took charge in the department’s creation.

The “Gray Rider” monument stands at the State Police Academy in Albany, and helped the Stannards arrive at the name Grayrider Ranch, now with a sprawling 200 acres off Igerna Road.

Theresa said discipline is the common theme between her racing and police work. Both also require confidence, which seems odd that for, at least a brief moment, Theresa felt lacking in that category.

Niks and the pro circuit Today, she races 8-year-old Niks, purchased six years ago as a “green” horse.

“I think he had 30 days of riding,” she recalled of her first days with him. She wasn’t sure right away how he’d end up as a racer. “He needed to mature physically and mentally,” she said.

There came a time, though, when Niks was turning 5 and she was pregnant with her now3-year-old, she took him for training to have him ready for racing by the time she was ready to ride.

With the baby in a stroller, she’d squeeze in workouts with Niks, in between her 12-hour shifts on duty.

It’s that kind of dedication that led her down the next successful path and had her in the running for Rookie of the Year with the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association.

“At first I thought, I can’t compete with those girls,” she said of the first idea at earning her pro card.

To do so, she’d have to get a permit, renewing it every year until she’d earned $1,000 in winnings on the pro circuit. At that time, she could essentially “go pro.”

It took her just seven months.

George says she’s humble, but he knew all along she had it.

Through the summer, her times placed her among the best in competition around the Northeast. She was looking like the woman to beat as she held the top-spot for Rookie of the Year.

That dream was dashed when Niks had a temporary health issue, easily fixed once Theresa figured it out.

“He’s my partner. I have to listen to him,” she said, but for a bit, she didn’t understand why he would sometimes not cooperate, when others he was dead-on.

“He had a little trickle of blood on his nose,” she said. It tipped her off to an issue he was having when adrenaline would expand his capillaries, giving him the sensation in his lungs that he was drowning.

A simple shot remedied that, though the races she lost in the meantime bumped her out of contention.

She ended the 2015 year ranked 341 in the country and 19 in the First Frontier Division, comprised of competitors from Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia.

Competing with other top ranked women has further raised Theresa’s competitive spirit.

The 2016 year began in October and she’s off to a great start, placing second at the Adirondack Stampede Charity Rodeo in Glens Falls last month.

The world championship for barrel racing is held each year in Las Vegas. When asked if she’d like to be there some day, she just smiles.

“Yeah, that’d be nice.”

Rotary volunteers help bring Christmas spirit to Tri County

By Bill Quinlivan

news@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Members of the North Creek Rotary Club descended on the Tri County Nursing and Rehabilitation Center at around 7 a.m. on Dec. 4.

Their mission was to quietly build and decorate the facility’s Christmas trees early enough to surprise the residents as they entered the common areas where the trees are placed.

Of course, the North Creek Rotarians wanted to help imbue the Center and its residents with the cheer and delight of the holiday season.

In all, there were 10 volunteers from the club, and as they do every week (usually at Marsha’s Restaurant in North Creek), they conducted their meeting over breakfast in the dining hall before setting upon the happy task at hand.

Two large trees had already been assembled by the Center’s staff and stood in the

halls awaiting lights and decoration by the Rotarians. A smaller tree awaited assembly by the in a large community room that also serves as a music center for the residents.

The volunteers were able to finish all the lights and decoration before the residents began to finish morning activities in their respective rooms and start to enter the common spaces of the center.

“The North Creek Rotary Club has, for years, begun our Holiday Season with a meeting at the Adirondack Tri-County Nursing Home where we volunteer our services to help decorate the facility,” said Robin De Armas, President, North Creek Rotary. “This year, our efforts were rewarded additionally in that John Mace, a Rotarian from Scotia, who is a patient at the facility undergoing rehabilitation was able to join us at the meeting. Adirondack Tri-County Nursing Home is an invaluable asset to our community and many of our Rotarians are involved including Administrator Hal Payne and Board Chair Karen Smith, both former Presidents of the North Creek Rotary.”

Minerva Central School sings out for Christmas

By Mike Corey

news@suncommunitynews.com

MINERVA — The gymnasium at Minerva Central School was alive with the sounds of holiday music the evening of Dec. 9 as a large crowd came out of their houses to enjoy some great entertainment.

Beginning with the Pre-K chorus and their fine rendition of “Jingle Bells” and ending with a fun sing-along medley of Christmas favorites, the concert had plenty of terrific musical selections.

Under the able direction of MCS Music Director Sabrina LaPointe, the K-3 chorus, 4-6 elementary chorus, concert band, and senior chorus all sang and played beautifully. Soloists from the elementary and senior chorus groups provided extra assists for their respective full chorus tunes: It’s Snow Fun/It’s no Fun! and That’s Christmas to Me. There was no snow on the ground in Minerva that day, but this didn’t put a damper on the holiday spirit at MCS. Thanks to all school staff, teachers, and of course students for making this such an enjoyable concert. Thanks to all parents, family and friends for coming out to support these concert performers.

What’s fair?

he United States of America was built on the basic concept of providing fair and equitable treatment for her citizens.

The freedoms we enjoy today have been earned through trial and error but also through sacrifice and death. As a nation we have overcome much, but much still needs addressed.

Our nation has always strived for an even playing field built on what is fair to all. But history has taught us there are always two sides to the argument of “what’s fair” and depending on which side of the argument you were on determined just how fair we really are.

If you were a black slave during the infancy of the nation and suffered at the hands of a hard task master this nation certainly didn’t seem very fair. Even after Lincoln freed the slaves and right into today many will argue the scales of justice are still not evenly balanced.

We take great pride in a judicial system that seeks a fair trial for all by a jury of their peers and a political system that deliberates over laws that seek to improve and perfect the inequities within the nation.

We currently find ourselves in the midst of several battles and the goal of fairness to all keeps coming up in nearly every discussion and issue we face. Far too many are questioning just what is fair.

The recent terror threats have some calling for us to close our borders to those of the Muslim faith when trying to enter the nation.

Many minorities do not believe they are treated fairly by law enforcement nor the courts.

We can’t even agree on what is a fair description of those who have entered and live in our nation without authorized paperwork.

Some call them “undocumented immigrants” while others consider them “illegal aliens.” How will we ever arrive at a fair plan for them if we can’t even agree on the proper terminology for them.

Some women believe that men have far too much control in society and that an unfair divide exists in what they are paid for performing the same job in the workforce. Many entry level employees working for minimum wage are unable to provide for their basic necessities and believe a higher wage is only fair.

Law abiding citizens are outraged that their second

Real reform needed in Essex County

B

y all outward indications, the Essex County Board of Supervisors demonstrated a surgical approach to this year’s budget process.

Lawmakers consolidated positions and departments, measures they said would eliminate redundancy and save taxpayer money.

They urged officials to look for possible savings in dark corners, like fees paid on retirement funds.

Spending for most contract agencies was held flat, while several major equipment purchases were put on hold.

Perhaps most surprisingly, supervisors didn’t squabble when the county manager strongly urged them to stick to the five-year plan, a blueprint which forecasts sizable tax increases for at least three more years.

It’s because of this belt-tightening that the levy was kept at a moderate 6 percent hike (but still well above the state tax cap).

Unpleasant, sure. But that’s the result of gorging on your savings for years to keep taxes artificially low.

Governance is not easy in this new era of permanent fiscal austerity.

For the most part, officials followed the rules of the current playbook: Cut, scrimp, save.

But at the eleventh hour, right before the budget vote, supervisors gave themselves raises.

One lawmaker questioned the wisdom of doing so beforehand.

After a brief debate, and a chorus line of “it’s real tough to be a supervisor” excuses, a motion to nix the increases was defeated.

At best, the pay bump comes across as failing to understand the optics of a county slowly easing out of fiscal distress.

At worst, it is myopic and self-serving.

We think it’s a little of both, especially the timing, which came immediately after lawmakers spent the morning stripping contract agencies of their requested funding increases, a measure that amounted to a $30,000 savings in a $96.5 million spending plan.

In what’s become an annual routine, supervisors engaged in this artfully choreographed display of fiscal window dressing designed to show constituents they were serious about savings.

What it amounts to is shuffling the deck chairs around on the Titanic: It all means nothing without measureable institutional reform.

If they weren’t in the crosshairs, lawmakers might tend to agree.

After all, they’re the first to complain about being hogtied by unfunded state mandates, which seem to gobble up a ever-growing slice of finite resources each year: Medicaid, insurance, retirement, all of them culprits, to say nothing of the minimum wage storm looming on the horizon, policy that is expected to drive up costs for local governments.

Lawmakers also lament state tax policy — towns must make up the difference for state-held forest lands, much of which some argue is under-assessed — and other boogeymen they say unfairly penalize municipalities within the Adirondack Park.

They’re correct in that these elements automatically handicap the county.

But so does their very own system of governance.

What do the salary increases have to do with reform?

The supervisors say their 3 percent pay bumps — about $500 per year for the rank and file — are required in order to ensure the jobs remain competitive in the marketplace.

Therefore, better pay will attract a younger, more qualified crowd to public service, they argued.

We disagree.

Like we saw in the last election cycle, there are many reasons why young professionals choose not to run for elected office.

But pay is not one of them.

It’s time.

The county’s archaic governing system requires a full-time commitment.

Elected supervisors are tasked with presiding over both their towns and over county business, leaving no room for a full-time career.

As such, most county lawmakers are retirees embarking on a second career as politicians after spending their working lives in the public, private and military sectors.

But in counties that have a legislature, like St. Lawrence, Clinton and Franklin, legislators have other full-time professional jobs, as do the part-time town supervisors.

It’s a system that allows a more diverse range of participation and viewpoints from the public.

As we’ve pointed out before, Essex County’s antiquated system discourages broad participation and encourages people to make politics their life occupation.

If the Essex County Board of Supervisors is serious about commitment to the taxpayers, then they should vote to disband in favor of a board of legislators, not waste time with the equivalent of peering underneath their desks for loose change.

This shouldn’t be misinterpreted as a criticism of lawmaker job performance, but rather of the institution itself, which is unsustainable and costly.

Since widespread mandate reform is unlikely, and costs will continue to rise, perhaps the most powerful statement and commitment supervisors can do to keep costs down is to reform their own institution.

Even if it means voting to eliminate their own full-time position.

LETTERS

CartoonÊ wentÊ tooÊ far!

To the editor: In a surpassing feat of ineptitude, The Sun has managed to publish a cartoon that cannot help but deeply offend most women (The Sun, Dec. 12, 2015). The cartoon depicts a Muslim woman, unflatteringly drawn, her midsection strapped with explosives as she holds a detonator in her hand, who appears to be singing, while the caption reads “I am woman, hear me roar.” These words are taken from the feminist song from the 1970’s sung

by Helen Reddy.

Here in the North Country, where unreconstructed sexism is still alive, well and functioning, a cartoon like this one is likely to bring a smile to the faces of many adult white males, who would find comfort and solace in the newspaper’s circulation of an image that links Anglo-American feminism with acts of terrorism, as in your cartoon. Those smiles are not indications of male humor, but are driven by male fear of women, which has deep psychological roots in western consciousness. They reflect a belief that any woman who asserts herself–who refuses to be obedient–causes untold harm to others.

I am not qualified to speak with any depth about Islam, but as a EuroAmerican I suspect that becoming a suicide bomber–male or female–may be an act of self-sacrifice, but it is hardly an act of self-assertion or selfempowerment. The cartoon juxtaposes a suicide bomber with women’s claiming of freedom from male dominance, it links apples with oranges, two contradictory and mutually exclusive ideas. Since the suicide bomber depicted happens to be recognizably female, the two contradictory ideas are resolved by reference to the imaged person’s female gender.

While we might argue about the many other assaults on reason that this cartoon represents, we should be clear that overall the cartoon invites hostility toward women in general, western motifs and Islamic motifs here coming together in a representation of universal woman as hate-object.

I would hope that The Sun, having published this bit of hate mongering, would profoundly rethink its editorial principles and strategies in the future.

TheÊ DonaldÊ isÊ rightÊ aboutÊ MuslimÊ immigration To the editor: To start off, I have to make it clear I am not and never have been a fan of the Donald.

He is prone to say the most outrageous things but with this said, he is not always wrong. Halting the immigration of Muslims into this country until we can be sure of their motives is a good idea. If you listen close he’s not talking about closing the borders for all time against all Muslims, just a halt so we can put in place a plan that will give us a better chance of catching those who wish to harm us. If it saves just one life, it will be worth it.

Also for years I have heard how we should be more like Europe. The French are halting Muslim emigration and raiding and closing down Mosques, arresting and deporting individuals and they’ve closed down their border. But the Donald proposes this and he is a bigot. It’s okay for the French?

I know there are those who are going to cry about how this goes against our principles. When did they become a suicide pact?

Will you be there to comfort the loved ones of those killed because you insisted we let all in no matter what.

The safety of this country and it’s citizens is what we should be focused on. If that is selfish so be it.

I would feel better knowing all had been done to keep my country safe.

LetÕ sÊ saveÊ ourÊ hospital!

To the editor: I drafted this letter over six months ago, but hesitated writing it, and hesitated having it printed in The Sun for fear that I would lose my job at InterLakes Health. As “luck” would have it, I was recently laid off. Thus I no longer have that worry to stay my hand.

If you agree that the Ticonderoga Community needs its hospital as is please let Senator Little know at: Senator Elizabeth Little 5 Warren St, Suite 3 Glens Falls, NY 12801 743-0968 or little@nysenate.gov.

This is a letter I recently drafted to Senator Little: I am writing this letter to you out of my concern over the plans Inter-Lakes Health Adult Home/ Moses-Ludington Hospital Interim-CEO Mr. Rod Boula has for this critical access hospital.

There are several problems with this plan.

1. Although MLH is a small rural hospital, it can treat a variety of health problems, and do so in a local town setting so our community does not necessarily have to travel considerable distances for this level of care. These include IV antibiotics for stubborn infections, monitoring of fluids and Lasix administration for pancreatitis, postsurgical rehab, medications and monitoring for COPD exacerbations and asthma flares to list just a few.

2. Additionally, MLH admits some ER patients as “observation status” patients. That means they keep a close eye on patients with symptoms that my or may not evolve into more complicated problems, e.g. Atypical chest pain, ruling out acute coronary syndrome or MI. Sometimes someone has a small bowel obstruction that can be cleared up by just administering fluids and pain medications and keeping the patient N.P.O (“nothing by mouth”).

Mr. Boula’s plan is that to transfer all these patients up to “his”hospital in Elizabethtown (Elizabethtown Community Hospital) using our limited ambulance resources to do so. The problem here is two-fold: Limited ambulance services.

A. If a patient is brought to the MLH ER with stroke-like symptoms, speedy transfer to a higher level of care facility is of the utmost essence.

There is a small window of time that patients can be treated with anti-clotting medication. I foresee a problem with our local ambulance services being tied up transporting other ER patients for the 50-minute one-way trip to Elizabethtown for observation admissions.

B. Additionally, there are patients who are reluctant at being admitted to the hospital setting at all, even locally. I am concerned that even more patients will refuse the trip to Elizabethtown and simply walk out of the ER AMA (“Against medical advice”) and thus jeopardize their outcomes.

3. Lastly, Moses-Ludington Hospital offers hospice care to our community in an easy-to-get-to, quiet and comfortable setting for folks going through the end-of-life process. Loved ones can visit them easily and frequently. This service will no longer be offered to our community; it will now be taking place in Elizabethtown. What impact do you imagine this will have folks having to drive nearly 2-hour round-trip drive to Elizabethtown to spend the last days and moments with these hospice patients? What about the difficult and dangerous driving conditions in the winter? What about people who don’t have cars and can’t afford to hire a cab?

Senator Little, if there’s anything you can do for us, it would be very much appreciated. We here in Ticonderoga really need your help.

Laurel Carroll Ticonderoga

StandÊ upÊ toÊ theÊ NRA To the editor: I am encouraged that you, like others, are beginning to agree that some form of gun regulation is called for amidst the proliferation of weapons in our increasingly wild-west society. However, I disagree that more background checks are an adequate response, or that only the “far left” favors an outright ban on semi-automatic weapons. The entire nation has shied away from stringent gun regulation largely because of past decisions from the Supreme Court. But even the justices have lately refused to even consider overturning a ban on semi-automatic weapons by the city of Highland Park, limiting the second amendment right to those weapons needed for hunting or self-defense. They are not blind to the growing dangers of unrestricted gun ownership. Each month, new communities vote for the same restrictions.

No background check would have prevented the sale of weapons to the San Bernadino terrorists. What good are background checks, when the Republican Party, as a matter of policy, has refused to even prevent those on “no-fly” lists for terrorist risks from purchasing lethal weapons? Now, with every terrorist event, the NRA uses the occasion to raise the sales and profits of the gun industry at the ultimate expense of public safety. To anyone who has closely studied the issue, the rate of gun violence in this country is tied directly to the massive over-armament of our society. It exists nowhere else in the world where gun ownership is limited.

Don’t get me wrong, I know we live in the North Country where hunting is a way of life, but even hunters don’t make the argument that the next deer should be killed with an AK-47. With every new mass killing, the portion of our society that would welcome sensible limitations on gun ownership grows. It isn’t an issue of the “far left.” It is an issue of when enough people will stand up to the NRA and the gun industry to demand common sense.

Half-measures are no longer enough.

Dick Barney Ticonderoga

BeÊ waryÊ of Ê ambulanceÊ districts To the editor: The towns of Willsboro and Essex are going over their 2016 tax cap in order to establish a new combined town ambulance district. The district would be controlled by the town boards and would allow charging for the use of the ambulance service to the patient. This is an example of putting the cart before the horse.

In Willsboro the voters voted on the new district and then after the approval, the actual cost of a 12 percent tax increase was printed in the Valley News Sun. The town supervisor, in a news letter, paid for by the taxpayers, told us the tax cap would be only .75 percent of the required 2 percent cap.

The NY State Law required that before going over the 2 percent tax cap of the budget, a public hearing for taxpayers must be held and approved by the town board.

And, a county board of legislators over a county board of supervisors would save about $1 million over a five-year period.

Ed Hatch Willsboro To see this letter in its entirety, please go to suncommunitynews.com

Alexander From page 4

amendment rights are being threatened with every act of gun violence while families of those killed by guns cry out for stiffer gun controls.

Even presidential candidates and the president himself feel they are treated unfairly at times by the media and even by members of their own party.

Sports leagues like the NFL use instant replay to ensure they get the calls right, but ask anyone who watches the games and they’ll tell you the calls are as unacceptable as ever. Perhaps even worse now then before instant replay.

In an imperfect world as much as we try, fairness is as elusive as ever which is why in this season of giving and forgiving let’s all recognize the two sides of what’s fair in our daily lives. Try to see things from the other person’s perspective. The simple gifts like tolerance go a long way and a little fairness is all any of us ask for in our daily lives.

The big question is, are we ready to work together by taking the first steps to correct the problems or are we just going to keep arguing and fight about what and where the real problems are?

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Christmas Memories Gordie Little

Columnist

“Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree.” You have no doubt been singing that carol lately. I am a bit distressed to learn that some of my friends have opted to forego the tree entirely this year. They say they are either overwhelmed or disenchanted by how secular and mercenary the season has become.

It is certainly a country mile from the ones from my early youth. When I was five, the only Santa I saw before the actual day was in my book entitled “A Visit from St. Nicholas.” My dad would sometimes drive us twenty miles from Westchester to New York City to view the animated Santa and his elves in Macy’s store window.

There was no television and we were never allowed to attend movies. But, each of us had a green, felt stocking hung by the fireplace with a tiny, celluloid Santa on top. Presents were few, but an orange and a jackknife were sufficient to elicit squeals of joy.

One year, my brother Jim and I wanted a sled more than anything else, but our dad was a poor preacher and there was not enough money for such luxuries.

One Christmas, though, my dad asked us to go out on the porch to see if any snow had fallen overnight. We did as we were told and there, against the wall was a beautiful six-foot-long Flexible Flyer sled with real red metal runners.

We laughed and cried and didn’t care that it had already been used by some other family. Our dad told us many years later that he found it in a secondhand store and saved money from donating a pint of blood to the Grasslands Hospital to buy it for us.

We had a sparse, but real Christmas tree, decorated with mostly homemade ornaments involving construction paper looping chains, popcorn and cranberries on string and old, handed down electric lights with fat bulbs; but it was our tree and for us, it was the best in the world.

There were no outdoor lights as far as I can remember. The fabulous displays these days are a more recent addition.

Our stories of trudging through the woods and cutting fresh Christmas trees with our kids back in the day, are heartwarming and sometimes hilarious. In recent years, we have opted for the artificial variety. Kaye is the decorator does a magnificent job.

Our great grandchildren enjoy coming in to push the start buttons on our musical plush creatures that play Christmas songs.

If you could see Kaye and I making them all sing in the stores, you would probably have us taken away and incarcerated.

We hope your Christmas is merry and that you take time to embrace the simple things including the real meaning of Christmas.

Remember, the star of Bethlehem was far brighter than the twinkling bulbs on our tree.

Johnsburg bridge installed

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

JOHNSBURG — Town highway workers were putting the finishing touches on the temporary bridge on Garnet Lake Road Friday, Dec. 11, after a smooth and speedy install the day before.

“From the time the crane got to the yard until we were done, I’d say it was five hours,” said town Highway Superintendent Daniel Hitchcock.

“We didn’t get to the site until noon and two hours later it was done. Once it was on the pad, it was only about 30 minutes of work,” he said.

Two men used t-handles that came with the bridge to open it up from its hinged position.

Prep work had precast cement footers in place. Those footers, at $55 for a block measuring two feet by two feet by six feet, provided additional savings for the project.

“It was cheaper to buy these than have cement poured. We can take them out after we are done and use them on another project,” he said.

The cost of the crane use was estimated at $6,000.

The structure was purchased for $47,000 last month after an engineer’s report deemed Garnet Lake Road Bridge in danger of collapse.

It was one of four named in the report, all with major repairs or replacement necessary, with an estimated total of $750,000 in work to be done over the next 18 months.

The Garnet Lake Road bridge required immediate action as traffic was already restricted to one lane and winter weather prevented a start until spring.

With several other bridge projects looming, the purchase price for the temporary bridge was worth it, said Hitchcock. Renting the equipment was expected to cost $37,000 for one year.

The town could also rent out the 50-foot structure in the future to other towns for similar projects.

“I tell everyone it’s a beautiful bridge,” Hitchcock joked. “Maybe I’ve been here too long if I’m saying a bridge is beautiful.”

Schroon chamber continues Holiday Express event SCHROON — The Schroon Lake Children’s Holiday Express committee have asked everyone to check out the holiday trees located at the Schroon Lake Top’s Supermarket and at the Schroon Lake Dollar General Store. Each of the trees have little mitten ornaments on them that list the age of a child in need and what their wish is for Christmas. If anybody would like to be one of Santa’s elves and help make a child’s wish come true this year, stop by one of these two stores and pick up a mitten or two and fulfill their wishes. All presents can be returned to the store (there are buckets near the trees) and they will make sure that Santa receives these items to be delivered on Christmas Eve. For any questions email chamber@schroonlakechamber. org or call 532-7675 and speak with Chamber Director, Tammy Whitty-Brown.
