TICONDEROGA — WinterFest will return to Ticonderoga Saturday, Feb. 11. It will be the third annual day of outdoor recreation. “The goal of WinterFest remains the same,” said John Bartlett, an event organizer, “to get people out and involved, to help beat the winter blues. Whether it is to help combat childhood obesity or just a break from cabin fever, WinterFest is designed to provide the community and area visitors with the opportunity to be more physically active. Ideally, we hope to get families and their children involved.” WinterFest 2012 will be held 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in and around Ticonderoga’s Bicentennial Park. It will feature sledding, ice skating, broomball, snowshoeing, snowmobile rides and a fun run. The main sponsors for the day of outdoor activities are the town of Ticonderoga, Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership, Ticonderoga Central Schools, Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, Ticonderoga Kiwanis and the Adirondack Trailriders.

Port Henry boy makes history PORT HENRY — Harrison Rich wanted a place in history. Nov. 7 he got it. Rich, a sixth grade student at Moriah Central School, was officially
the first person to cross the new Champlain Bridge when it opened Nov. 7. “I thought it would be pretty cool to be the first one across the bridge; to have a place in history,” he said. “I did it.” Rich’s accomplishment came after days of planning. “My father and I went to the
bridge the day before it opened so I could be the first across, but we couldn’t get over it,” said Rich, the son of Dallas and Staley Rich of Port Henry. “But the day the bridge opened my mom took me and told me to go ahead.” Rich methodically worked his way through the crowd until he was standing directly behind the digni-

“In our quest to reach this mission we have championed, in whole or part, many projects,” Dedrick noted. “Some of our projects have included the Percy Thompson Memorial Park, including the playground, the gazebo and many park benches; the Ticonderoga municipal beach, senior citizens holiday luncheon, Easter Egg hunt, high school/middle school bridge building contest, and a sponsor of a Little League team. But we need your help. We are able to help our communities through many fundraiser endeavors. With your help the Kiwanis club can continue to accomplish its mission.”

VALENTINE’S DAY IS COMING SOON! February 14th!
The Kiwanis are now selling tickets for their annual “Win at 55” contest. Participants are asked to guess the date and time the temperature in Ticonderoga will reach 55 degrees. “‘Win at 55’ is one way to keep folk’s spirits high during the winter months and to raise funds for the many community projects that Ti Kiwanis undertakes each year,” said Bill Bolton of the civic group. “With a $5 donation you get to guess the day and hour you think the air temperature will reach 55 degrees,” he explained. “The person who comes closest to guessing that magic moment will win $500, with a second and third prize of $300 and $200 respectively.” Tickets will be sold through Feb. 20 and the 55 degree day will be recorded after Feb. 28. The temperature will be measured at the weather station located at the Downing residence on the Portage in Ticonderoga and may be checked at www.weatherundergound.com. Ti Kiwanis members are selling tickets throughout the community. “All monies raised will be used to improve our community and or help area children,” Bolton said. “Last year Ti Kiwanis supported improvements in the playground equipment at the Percy Thompson Memorial Park and the Ti Elementary School. Kiwanis also sponsors the annual Easter Egg Hunt, senior citizens holiday luncheon and a Little League team. The club also gave over $11,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors in 2011. “Ticonderoga Kiwanis is dedicated to improving our community and helping children both locally and worldwide,” he said. “Help us help others by buying a chance to ‘Win at 55’.” Bob Dedrick, a Kiwanis member, is proud of the work done by the civic group. “The Ticonderoga Kiwanis is a thriving organization of men, women and youth, who are dedicated to serving children and improving the quality of life,” he said. “One of our missions calls each of us to provide, through our club, a practical means to form and foster enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to build a better community.

Ice fishing tournament planned in Ti for Feb. 12 By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga “Best Fourth in the North” committee normally hopes for warm, sunny skies. Ice has never been a concern. It will be Sunday, Feb. 12. That’s when the group, which plans the annual Ticonderoga July 4th celebration, will host its inaugural Pan Fish Tournament. The ice fishing tourney will be held at the Ticonderoga ferry landing on Lake Champlain 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Entry fee is $20
a person or a family of three members. “In addition to being a fundraiser for the ‘Best Fourth in the North’ celebration the committee wanted to host an event for the community, youth, families and area visitors during the winter season,” said John Sheehan, a committee member and tournament organizer. “With the support of the committee, the Hague Fish & Game Club and co-organizer Shawn Hayes we are able to not only provide a great event for the community, but remind people that the ‘Best Fourth in the North’ committee is working year round for the Ticonderoga area.” Prizes will be 40 percent of the entry fees. If 100 people reg-
ister the first place prize will be $400, Sheehan pointed out. There will also be a $100 for the largest fish caught of any species. “Any child under the age of 14 will be entered to a raffle for a lifetime fishing license,” Sheehan said. “In addition $200 of the event’s profits will be put toward future outdoor youth activities.” Participants can pre-register or register at event. Registration the date of the event will be 7:30 to 9:30 a.m Advance registration forms are available at the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce, Norm’s Bait & Tackle in Crown Point and online at www.best4thinthenorth.com.

Understand the symptoms of mental illness
I
t has been reported now in several media outlets that the level of prescribers for psychiatric patients is dangerously low. The need far outweighs what is available for those suffering from mental illness. What this basically boils down to is that patients are not adequately receiving the services they desperately need to maintain their mental health. This has already resulted in many patients turning to the emergency room for medications, some of them then being checked into the mental health unit because their needs were not met and their mental health deteriorated. Another sad aspect of all of this is the stigma of mental illness, a grave reality for many who are already suffering, their condition compounded by a society that often does not understand the symptoms they are witnessing. It happens all too often with, for example, the clinically depressed. Loved ones, friends, colleagues, cannot understand why they cannot get out of bed and spend their days crying and in despair. Individuals who do not understand this illness, often out of a desire to help, driven by fear though, will tell them to exercise, eat right, just get up and do something, not understanding why they are bed ridden and unable to muster the energy for what appears to them to be normal, every day and often simple tasks. It happens to individuals with bipolar disorder, often after they have been swept away by mania and act out recklessly, impulsively and destructively. Those who witness the behaviors and who do not understand the illness, often treat the sufferer as though they were not succumbing to symptoms of their disease but willingly engaging in the behaviors that at times define their illness. It is easy to see why there would be symptoms around mental illness. When people break their legs they are in casts and if they do not utilize their crutches they are likely to fall over and hurt themselves or someone else. But those around them understand that they have an injured leg, and that is why they cannot stand upright on their own. If someone has a weak heart, that individual will require heart medication and that person's heart will not function prop-
erly, also an illness or ailment that is easy to understand, even though, like mental illness, it is not seen. But mental illness is different, even though the irrational behaviors of the mentally ill make perfect sense as the brain controls actions and thoughts and if it is not functioning properly, then people are going to behave in ways that do not appear normal to society. No one who is mentally ill asked for the illness, but it is the hand they were dealt and must live with. An estimated 26.2 percent of Americans — more than 57 million people — age 18 and older suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Mental disorders are the leading cause of disability in the United States. In 2004, 32,439 people died by suicide in the United States. More than 90 percent of people who kill themselves have a diagnosable mental disorder. Fewer than one-third of adults and onehalf of children with a diagnosable mental disorder receive mental health services in a given year. Organizations such as Behavioral Health Services North are doing all they can to remedy the lack of prescribers in the area and ensure those suffering from mental illnesses receive the care they need. Until that happens, people suffering from a mental disorder are going to have to live with the extra burden that lack in care results in. But the population as a whole can take a simple step that would relieve the burden caused by the stigma of mental illness by educating itself and providing the benefit of the doubt when coming across the possible symptoms of mental illness. It seems no one would pick on or judge or avoid an individual who was displaying symptoms from heart disease. Then why would we do that to an individual displaying symptoms brought on by the brain not functioning properly? Many of us do, but we shouldn't.

Letters to the Editor
Christmas campaign a success Teachers must earn respect To the Times of Ti:
To the Times of Ti:
The Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign did very well in Ticonderoga this past Christmas! We raised about 6.5 percent more than we did in 2010, and we were just a $100 shy of our best year so far which was in 2009. Thank you to the Wal-Mart Supercenter and the Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union for allowing us to set up kettles at your locations! Thank you to the Times of Ti for publishing numerous articles about our efforts! We had over 90 volunteers. Thank you to everyone that gave us food, coffee and hot chocolate! Thank you to all the generous people who donated money to the kettles! It’s all greatly appreciated! To all the volunteers — thank you very much Leah Bree, Sarah Aunchman, Jeannine Wright, Kyle Shambo, Maegan Shambo, Jim and Connie Wells, Rick, Chris and Steven Bussey, Richard and Patricia Buell, Terry Brooks, Dan Lee, Jimmy Brooks, Chuck Dolloff, Jean McKee, Vickie Trudeau, Julie Newsome, Mary McDougal, Linda Ives, Karen Sheets, Logan Schryer, Tatum Trombley, Wally McGuinness, Sue Allen, Scott McGuinness, Shelly, Brooke and Alex Plunkett, Randy Carroll, from the Kiwanis ClubBob Dedrick, Joe McCranels, Howard Rathbun, Ken and Enid Engler, Joyce Barker, Leslie Midgley, Steve Boyce, Bill Bolton, John Bartlett, Art Hatfield, Ross and Nancy Kelley, Lena Robtoy, and Don and Sue Johnson from the Credit Union-Renee Scuderi, Shauna Alkinburgh, Regina Ezzo, Jeanne McMurtry, Dawn Wranosky, Jody Belden, Pam Nolan, Michelle Corson, Debbie Yaw, Shawn Hayes, Deanna Coburn, Judy Porter, Karen Bennett and Jodi Petro, from the Northern Lake George Rotary Club-Bob Whitaker, Merribeth Elling, Chip Devenger, Diane Dickson, Carolyn Close, Beth Navitsky, Stan Burdick, Walter Thorne, Michelle Benedict and Julie Cook from The Ticonderoga National Honor Society- Adviser Deb Breitenbach, Anthony Costello, Riley Chapman, Brandon Russell, Hannah Herbst, Joseph Gonyeau, Paige Hughes, Anita Zhang, Allen Zhang, Gracie Ginn, Katie Palandrani, Michael Watts and Megan Schryer, and finally from Mountain Lake Services-Supervisors Pam Morse, Claire LaFountain and Susan Boyle-Volunteers Eric Charlton, Michael Avery, Joseph Colon and Darby McLaughlin.

Ti school has earned support To the Times of Ti: I have read several letters recently that have begun again the bashing of Ticonderoga Central Schools. I respect your opinion, but I don’t believe you have an understanding of the value of the school to the children, to area organizations, to the culture of the town and to all our citizens as a whole. Saturday, Jan. 21, I had a most pleasant and rewarding experience at Ticonderoga Elementary/Middle School. Kiwanis Club of Ticonderoga sponsored a Bridge Building Contest for students from Ti Middle and High School, St. Mary’s and Crown Point High School. There were probably 50-60 students who took part in this. Many townspeople were on hand, as well as (Ti school superintendent) John McDonald Jr., (Ti Elementary/Middle School principal) Bruce Tubbs and several teachers. As I arrived I was surprised to see so many kids entering the school. Apparently, as well as the bridge building there were several other activities being held at the school. These were play practice, music practice and a zumba class to mention a few. The hall and rooms were a buzz with activity. It is easy to be critical of the teachers and the school, but I would suggest that everyone should stop to consider the part our school plays in this town. I point out that had the budget been voted down last year when it was presented to the public a second time, there would be no activities in the schools – no organizations could have used the buildings and no students could have had those extracurricular experiences. To my knowledge, there is no other building available where kids can meet to socialize as well as share music, sports, exercise, acting and learning even on a weekend. If you are dissatisfied with taxes as a whole, I suggest that you may want to consider Essex County tax rates approved by the board of supervisors who overrode the state 2 percent cap on the tax rate increases and approved a tax rate increase of roughly 10 percent. I believe that several surrounding counties held their increases to 2 percent. Also, let me remind you that the teachers and administrators at Ticonderoga Central Schools have taken a pay freeze for two years now, but Essex County workers refused to take any kind of a freeze – not even to save their co-workers jobs. Where is the outrage about that? I ask you to take a moment to weigh the benefits to the Ticonderoga and surrounding communities offered by Ticonderoga Central Schools in contrast to the benefits that citizens receive from Essex County’s operations. It seems to me that Ticonderoga Central Schools has earned our support. Essex County Government? Not so much. Lois Gunning Ticonderoga
Supporting the revolution To the Times of Ti:
I think the reasons given for respect for teachers in your opinion piece is self serving to teachers. All respect given to individuals is either earned by them or forced, such as in the military. It can also be forced by peer pressure with the penalty of being marginalized by ridicule if that respect is not given. I remember teachers from my childhood but only 10 percent of them made an impression that was lasting and favorable because those few teachers inspired interest and curiosity on my part through a quality curriculum and personal enthusiasm. As a result they had my respect, and they were remembered. The quality of education in my youth was far superior to what it is today because then there was not the level of government involvement that we have today. The state I lived in then had little involvement in education. State control of schools as well as curriculum has crippled education. Removal of discipline from the classroom has forced some of our best teachers to quit. The teachers union, which at times is needed, has done more harm than good, as is true with most unions. In my community teachers make more money than most other working people, so the union hasn't failed in that respect. There are many reasons I will not put teachers on a pedestal above other citizens. I think it only fair to see them as equals.They are citizens just like the rest of us, both good and bad. As far as state funding goes I would like to see the state get out of the education business. The only interest the state has in education is to see to it that students learn nothing that might make them savvy voters. Otherwise the status quo of corruption, bribery and lying in politics might come to an end. Because we live in a system where democracy has failed, and we feel powerless to change things, we tend to use a lot of denial when discussing anything government, and education in New York is government, and its control is subtle and unyealding. The politicians of our state will never underestimate the value of an uninformed public. Teachers are a part of that shortcoming, as are we all. Jeff MacMakin Putnam
Editorial Perfect Timing To the Times of Ti: All I can say is “WOW, perfect timing for this editorial.” Through the “Creating Healthy Places Grant” Cornell Cooperative Extension is currently searching to hire a Healthy Foods Educator. The primary responsibility of this program is to educate store owners as to the benefits of consuming healthy fresh produce and to increased visibility and availability of healthful foods in their stores. The educator ’s secondary responsibility would be to teach consumers about health benefits of eating fresh, locally grown produce resulting in the more demand and increased shelf space for the healthy alternatives. Through this program we are hoping to address many of the issues your editorial hit upon. I would like to highlight other programs Cornell Cooperative Extension is involved with to combat the growing epidemic of obesity and poor nutrition choices. In February, Cornell Cooperative Extension will offer a pilot program to help parents and primary caregivers of pre-school children navigate the world of nutrition, physical activity, and parenting through Supporting Healthy Families 2012 which is funded by the Glens Falls Foundation. According to the White House Task Force on Obesity, one in five children are obese by the age of 6. Among low income families, the risk rises to one in three children. This fun, interactive six-week program will explore research based parenting principles matched to healthy lifestyle principles and is facilitated by Cooperative Extension parenting and nutrition educators. This six week program is free of charge and will be held in Queensbury. For the last eleven years Cornell Cooperative Extension in Warren County has facilitated the Eat Smart New York (ESNY) Nutrition Education program. This is a free program for families and individuals who are eligible to receive Food Stamps. ESNY is an exciting program where nutrition educators will meet with you either individually or in a group, in your home or community setting, to help you learn about: nutrition, meal planning, healthy food shopping on a budget, cooking and food safety, weight control and physical activity, and much more. Again, this is a free program and the only cost to you is your time and the benefits last a life time. Cornell Cooperative Extension also has a wealth of information on growing your own fruits and vegetables. We have a dedicated team of Master Gardeners who would love to get you started in planning your first garden. If you do not have space for a garden contact our Community Gardens Coordinator to find a local community garden near you. If you have any question regarding these program contact Cornell Cooperative Extension of Warren County 518623-3291 or 668-4881. Amy Sabattis Public Relations Coordinator, Cornell Cooperative Extension
Please consider this letter an applaud for the Denton editorial “We Need A Food Revolution!” The concept of creating supportive environments in which we make the healthiest choices the easiest choices is one supported by health professionals. Most would agree individuals are responsible for the choices s/he makes. However the perspective that individuals are solely responsible for eating healthfully and getting plenty of activity not only puts a heavy burden on individual, but also does not take into consideration the context in which individuals live. Research shows that places in which we live, work and play (homes, schools, work, stores, neighborhoods, etc) may either discourage or support health. Research shows that people are healthier when their convenient and grocery stores have abundant stocks of healthy and affordable food. Essex County Public Health (ECPH) currently has a grant called Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work and Play in Essex County. This grant is the primary program funding source for ECPH to conduct chronic disease (obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer) prevention activities. Strategies are identified by the Centers for Disease Control and NYS Department of Health and implemented locally. Grant activities are environmental, policy, and systems based – population-wide – approaches to prevent chronic disease. They include accessibility of nutritious foods and opportunities for physical activity. Specific to the need for a food revolution, action is occurring locally. In the past 1-½ years, this grant has provided seven Buy Local food racks in partnership with multiple farmers and local store owners; provided 50 Buy Local signs in partnership with Adirondack Harvest, farms, farms stands and stores; provided eight Farmers' Market signs in partnership Adirondack Harvest, and farmers' market coordinators; provided 5,000 Buy Local Food Guides highlighting local farms, farm stands, farmers markets and restaurants serving local produce; supported the creation of two new community gardens in partnership with local hosting organizations; and supported two community kitchen restoration projects. Over the next year Essex County Public Health will continue with ongoing support of four community gardens; establishing a process for gleaning and preserving foods for distribution at local venues in partnership with farmers, community kitchens and others; promote the use of SNAP and WIC dollars for the purchase of fruits and vegetables; increasing availability and visibility of fresh fruits and vegetables with farmers and local venues; creating and distributing a “Buy Local” Food Guide 2012; and implementing the “Fit Pix” incentive program at local venues. Through the Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work and Play grant Essex County Public Health has been a part of the food revolution. There is still much work to be done.

Editorial Perfect Timing To the Times of Ti: Teens and parents should be aware of a dangerous new trend – a synthetic marijuana product commonly called K2 or Spice which can be purchased by teens legally and locally. We know that local teens are using K2 and we are very concerned. Please join our efforts to combat this drug in our community. K2 is manufactured as incense or potpourri with the warning “not for human consumption” but marketed as a legal marijuana substitute. A synthetic THC chemical is added to produce a high similar to marijuana but with side effects including tachycardia (fast, racing heartbeat), seizures, hallucinations, paranoid behavior, non-responsiveness, heart attack and death. The sale of K2 is legal in most US states, but banned in dozens of countries. The NY Senate passed legislation to ban the sale of K2 but the Assembly bill is currently stalled in committee. Please contact our local Assembly Member, Theresa Sayward, to express support for this bill. This can be done easily on the Assembly website – assembly.state.ny.us – or by calling her district office at 8733803. Since the sale of K2 is legal, it can be purchased by teens on the internet, at “head shops” and at some convenience stores, especially those frequented by trucker drivers as it is used by truck drivers to stay awake. Please join us in our concern for the youth of our community by sharing this information with teens and their parents, and contacting Assembly Member Sayward. We also urge the local press to inform the public about this dangerous trend.

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A group of Ticonderoga Middle School students have been hard at work outside the classroom. The eighth grade Living Biology class has been raising money for a pair of field trip and a school project. “Two of the goals we set in the beginning of the year were to participate in two out-of-town field trip experiences,” said Janet Mallon, who teaches the Regents class. “Massive fundraising needed to be done to achieve that goal. Another goal was to help complete the middle school nature trail project.” The first goal is being realized today. Students are in New York City to visit the American Museum of Natural History. The cost of the trip is about $1,300, Mallon noted, all of it secured by students. The next goal is a trip to the Minds On “DNA in the Courtroom” workshop in Glens Falls March 20. That trip will cost up to $625. “Many fundraising avenues have been pursued,” Mallon said. “Box Tops for Education are still being collected and redeemed. The

Students held a Thanksgiving pie raffle, selling tickets in the cafeteria for two weeks before the Thanksgiving break. Cans were collected at football games and in the school and then the cans were redeemed for the deposit money.” The student council is organizing a “Gum Chewing Day.” Those proceeds will

The upkeep of the trails is an ongoing task that Mallon incorporates into her teaching about ecology and environmental stewardship. ‘We would like to thank all the people and organizations in the area that have helped us toward reaching our goals for this year,” Mallon said. “It takes a lot of hard work over a long period of time from many, many generous people and organizations.”

Proposed zoning changes go to planning board Adoption expected in March By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga planning board is reviewing proposed revisions to the town’s zoning law. The new zoning law, which town officials hope to adopt in March, has also been sent to neighboring towns and counties for review as a courtesy, Ti Supervisor Deb Malaney said. A public hearing on the proposed zoning law was held in December and the town board will continue to accept written comments until it takes action to adopt the meas-
ure. Written comments on the zoning changes can Emailed to Malaney at debmalaney@nycap.rr.com or mailed to the Community Building, Montcalm Street, Ticonderoga 12883. The proposed law is available at the town clerk’s office as well as online at www.townofticonderoga.org The zoning revision project is funded by a Quality Communities grant from the New York State Department of State. That grant expires March 31. Malaney said the town board hopes to adopt the proposed law before the grant expires. The existing Ticonderoga zoning law is 30 years old, Malaney said. It has been amend-
ed 20 times. In 2009 a resident’s committee with the help of a paid consultant, Brandy Saxton of PlaceSense in Port Henry, began a complete review of the law. “The existing zoning law is at a point where, in some areas, in contradicts itself and leaves the town open to legal challenges,” Malaney said. “A revision of the zoning law is also part of our comprehensive plan and has been requested by many businesspeople.” Saxton pointed out the public has been invited to participate throughout the process. There was a town-wide mailing in June 2010 to notify residents about the project and opportunities to have input on the changes being drafted. There were nine public informa-
tion meetings and throughout the process drafts were posted online and available for review at the town office. Malaney and Saxton agree the proposed revised zoning plan will have little affect on most people. “There are no radical changes in the existing zoning law,” Malaney said. “It creates a blueprint for sensible, future growth.” Matt Fuller, town attorney, said the proposed law, if adopted, will have no impact on existing structures. They will be grandfathered under the new law. The proposed zoning changes focus on three keys areas, according to Saxton — commercial property, downtown and lakefront properties.

Anglers are limited to three salmon, which must be at least 15 inches; two lake trout, which must be at least 18 inches; five northern pike, which must be at least 18 inches; and five perch of any size. There are no limits on pickerel. Because of the large number of entries officials will not accept any lake trout or pike less than 24 inches. Officials ask that all smaller fish be returned to the lake unless fishermen plan on eating them.
Any discrepancies and/or decisions will be decided by the committee. All cash prizes will be awarded at the clubhouse after the 4 p.m. close of fishing on Sunday. Door prizes donated by area merchants, members and friends of the club will be drawn hourly on both days. A prize list will be posted at the club. People who would like to donate a prize should contact the club. Weather permitting, there will be marked vehicles on the lake to pick up fish and bring them to the club for weigh-in so that anglers do not have to leave their tip-ups or fishing area. There will be no pick-up service after 3:30 p.m. on either day. The fish will be displayed at the club with the fisherman’s name and ticket number until they are picked up. A pasta dinner will be served at the club starting at 5 p.m. on Sunday for $10. On Sunday there will be hot dogs for $1.50, hamburgers for $2 and chili for $2. The club bar will be open Friday noon – 9 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday at noon for members and guests. Fishermen are urged to remember the VHS disease and DEC regulations. Anglers are allowed no more then 100 bait fish at a time. Bait must come from a shop that has certified bait or be bait caught in Schroon Lake. Bait cannot come from one lake to another in an effort to stop the spread of this disease. People must use smelt caught in Schroon Lake. People may not take any smelt off the lake at any time, which means fishermen must use what they catch the same day. State environmental conservation and the New York State police will be present and checking licenses and registrations as well as tip-up’s. People should bring all licenses and registrations. For further information or to confirm mail-in registrations call Drew Hanchett at 532-7953.

Young artists sought for Moriah project Grant received for banners
By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com PORT HENRY — Young artists are being sought in Moriah to help with a local history project. The Sherman Free Library in Port Henry has received a New York State Developing Community Arts Grant to fund the creation of 10 banners and stories relating to local history. Children ages 8 to 12 can participate in the project. “Moriah and Port Henry have a long his-
tory of creative artists and craftspeople,” Jackie Viestenz, Sherman Free Library director, said. “And now, thanks to a New York State Developing Community Arts Grant, kids 8-12 will have a chance to make original art celebrating our town’s history.” The “10 Banners/10 Stories” project will feature local artist Linda Smyth working with children in choosing historic themes and designing 10 different banners that showcase them. “I know of kids who really want to do this because they take pride in their town,” Smyth said. “The idea is that we will meet
with local historians and look at some of the wonderful historic postcards and books at the Sherman Free Library.” Then, Smyth and the children will discuss possible themes with the goal of making 10 distinctive, weatherproof banners that will go up around downtown Port Henry this summer. “Made of heavy-duty materials the banners should last for several years if we put them away in the winter,” Smyth said. Eventually, a book will be published with the help of local writers Jeff Kelly and Frank Martin. The book will include pictures of
each banner and brief essays by the children about each banner theme. The grant provides for the majority of banner costs, but Smyth and team will need additional donations to fund brackets and publishing expenses for the banner book. “If we receive enough local donations,” Smyth said, “we can expand this project to make custom banners for many more locations across Moriah.” Children interested in taking part in the project can contact Viestenz at the library, call 546-7461 or Email shermanfreelibrary@yahoo.com
Port Henry from page 1 told me he wanted to be the first person across the bridge. I told him as soon as the ribbon was cut to go for it.” Rich did, running as hard as he could to beat the crowd. Nearing the end of the nearly half mile bridge he tired and began to walk. “I had to start running again,” he said. “I was afraid someone would catch me and get across first.” No one did. Rich was recognized for his accomplishment during a ceremony at Moriah Central School Jan. 12. Lanpher presented Rich with a framed photo of him running across the span that day. Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward of New York gave Rich a certificate from the state Assembly marking his feat. “People who have dreams and initiative will be the leaders of tomorrow,” Sayward said. “Harrison certainly had a dream and he made it come true.” Lanpher told students how she and Sayward worked with many others to make the new bridge a reality. The belief their work was important carried them though difficult times, she said. “I’m inspired by this young man,” Lanpher said of Rich. “We believed we could build a bridge. He believed he could be the first one across. People who believe can accomplish great things.” The old Lake Champlain Bridge was immediately closed Oct. 16, 2009, when state transportation officials, without warning, declared it unsafe. The bridge served about 3,000 vehicles a day, meaning people who used the bridge daily to reach their jobs, health care facilities, grocery stores and other necessities were forced to take detours lasting up to four hours.

He was honored recently by New York Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward, center, and Vermont House Rep. Diane Lanpher. led to the closure of businesses on both sides of the lake and crippled tourism. A temporary ferry service was installed to link Crown Point and Addison, Vt. The bridge was demolished in December 2009 and construction started on a new bridge in June 2010. The new bridge opened Nov. 7, 2011. As part of the program honoring Rich, Lanpher and Sayward answered students’ questions about the bridge. Students seemed particularly interested in the cost of the project. Estimates for a new bridge and the temporary ferry service were $81 million, Lanpher said. The actual cost will be
about $120 million. Estimates for the bridge construction alone, she said, were $69 million. The final cost will be about $74 million. Sayward praised Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas and New York Gov. David Paterson, both now out of office, for their help in expediting the bridge replacement. “The loss of the bridge was a huge tragedy for our communities,” Val Stahl, Moriah Elementary School principal, said. “It affected all of us, our parents, our families. We want to thank Assemblywoman Sayward and Rep. Lanpher for facilitating the building of a new bridge in such a fast manner.”

Crown Point • Times of Ti - 15
Crown Point native key to tunnel project Murdock helped with Lincoln Tunnel By Lawrence P. Gooley timesofti@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — By most accounts, the Lincoln Tunnel is the world’s busiest vehicular tunnel. It actually consists of three tunnels, or tubes, and accommodates about 43 million vehicles per year, or about 120,000 per day. It was opened in 1937, 10 years after the Holland Tunnel (about three miles south) began handling traffic. And a North Country man was instrumental to the success of both tunnel systems. Charles Watson Murdock, a native of Crown Point, worked closely with some of the best engineers in American history, playing a key role in solving a problem unique to tunnels for vehicles with gasoline-powered engines. Murdock was born on Feb. 11, 1889, to Andrew and Mary Murdock. After entering the Sherman Collegiate Institute (a prep school in Moriah), he attended Middlebury College in Vermont, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree, and then RPI in Troy, graduating in 1912 as a civil engineer. Following a stint with the New York Telephone Company, he accepted a position with the Public Service Commission, 1st District, New York City in 1913. During the next several years, a pressing problem developed in Murdock’s field of work. The automobile had taken hold in America, and with the proliferation of cars in New York City, gridlock became routine. There were far too many vehicles on the road, clogging thoroughfares with major traffic jams, particularly at bridges. Ferries helped, but the wait was long. The solution of adding more bridges and more ferries carried several additional problems. After studying the issues, experts decided that tunnels were the best option. Plenty of tunnels had been dug in the past to accommodate trains, water pipelines, and subway systems. The advent of the automobile introduced new problems in anything but the shortest of tunnels. The gasoline engine emitted poisonous gases, primarily carbon monoxide. The problem vexing engineers was how to discharge those deadly gases from tunnels to make the air safe. No method had yet been devised to fill long tunnels (like the planned 1.6-mile Holland) with safe and breathable air. Slow traffic, stalled cars, and accidents could keep citizens within a tunnel for lengthy periods. All the while, every vehicle would be pumping poisonous gas into an enclosed space, with deadly results. From among several options, the method proposed by Clifford Holland was chosen. On his team of engineers was
Charles Murdock, who was then employed by the New York State Bridge and Tunnel Commission and the New Jersey Interstate Bridge and Tunnel Commission. (Clifford Holland died just two days before the two tunnels from east and west were joined. The project was renamed in his honor.) Several dozen structures requiring innovative and exceptional engineering skills have been called “the Eighth Wonder of the World.” Among them is the Holland Tunnel, “the world’s first mechanically ventilated underwater vehicular tunnel.” That long-winded description is very important—the Holland’s machine-powered air-handling system became the standard blueprint for automobile tunnels the world over for the next seven decades. Charles Murdock was deeply involved in its design, development, and implementation. In 1921, he conducted subway ventilation tests at the University of Illinois. Further work—highly detailed, exhaustive experimentation—was done in a test tunnel created in an old mine near Bruceton, Pa., duplicating the Holland site. The data from those testing facilities formed a basis for the creation of the Holland Tunnel’s ventilation system. In the process, the engineering team also developed and used the first reliable automated carbon monoxide detector (with kudos from miners and canaries alike, no doubt). The giant tubes that formed the highway tunnels were separated into three horizontal layers. The middle layer handled traffic; the bottom layer conducted fresh air throughout the tunnel; and the top layer pulled the poisonous gases upward for removal. The system was driven by four 10-story ventilation towers, two on each side of the river. Together they housed 84 fans of 8 feet in diameter—half provided fresh air, which
NORM’S BAIT & TACKLE
flowed through slits in the tunnel floor, and the other half expelled “dirty” air and gases skyward. The system provided a complete change in the tunnel’s air every 90 seconds. Should it ever fail, thousands of lives were at risk. For that reason, extreme safety measures were built into the system. Power to the fans was supplied from six independent sources, three on each side of the river, and each capable of powering the entire tunnel on its own. Due to Murdock’s great expertise, he was later chosen to oversee the installation of the ventilation system on the Lincoln Tunnel. Fifty-six fans performed the air-handling duties, and twenty men covered three shifts around the clock, monitoring the carbon monoxide instruments. Motorists commented that the air they breathed in the Lincoln Tunnel was far cleaner than what they breathed daily in the city. In 1938, the year after the Lincoln Tunnel opened, Murdock’s presentation, “Ventilating the Lincoln Vehicular Tunnel” was made before the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, setting the standard for similar tunnels around the world. By 1947, ten years after the Lincoln Tunnel opened, Murdock’s work was praised as a modern wonder. It had operated perfectly for a full decade—none of the backup systems were called into use during that time. Among jobs in other states, Murdock consulted on the East River Mountain Tunnel in West Virginia; Big Walker Mountain Tunnel in Virginia; and the Baltimore Tunnel (Outer Tunnel) in Maryland. He also worked on the Riverfront & Elysian Fields Expressway in Louisiana, and Route I-695’s Connector D in Boston. Charles Murdock remained with the Port Authority of New York for more than 25 years. The Crown Point native is linked to some of the most important engineering work of the twentieth century. He died in Volusia, Fla., in 1970 at the age of 81. This story was provided by Tom Hughes, manager of the Crown Point State Historic Site.

10 Fun, Meaningful, and Romantic Ideas 1) ‘Heart Attack’: First, choose a friend, neighbor, teacher, family member, or person in need. Or, do this for mom/dad (or in each of the kids’ rooms). Cut out many heart shaped cards and write down things you love about that person on each card. Then, place those cards all over the yard (or room) of the person you are ‘heart attacking’. 2) ‘I Love You’ Phone Calls, Emails, and Letters: Pick up the phone, send an email, or write a letter to family members, friends, or a ‘special’ someone and tell them how much you love and appreciate them. Isn’t it interesting how the meaning, significance, and celebration of holidays change for each of us over time. For example, Valentine’s Day begins as a fun day where kids make cards and give heart shaped candies to classmates. It then transforms into a day where teenagers have ‘crushes’ and buy roses for someone special. And eventually, it becomes a day where couples become unselfish and say and do things for their significant other. This holiday allows us the opportunity to more fully possess and demonstrate the very attribute and characteristic that defines the purpose of our existence, the solution to every problem, and the foundation of personal happiness – love! Here are listed 10 fun, meaningful, and even romantic ideas that are the perfect Valentine’s traditions and activities for any family, couple, or individual.
3) First Date: Recreate your first date; or if possible, visit the place you went on your first date. 4) Meals Should be RED with Lots of Sugar: Have cookies for breakfast, make a cake for lunch, have the kids choose what they want for dinner, etc. But, everything needs to be RED!
7) Love Notes: Write little notes of reasons why you love someone and leave them randomly around the house. It could be for mom, dad, the kids, etc. You could leave these notes in many places, but here are a few ideas: under their pillow, in dad’s briefcase, under the lid of the washer, in the microwave, the shower, in the kids backpacks, etc. 8) Heart Cookies Handout: As a family, make many heart shaped cookies and deliver them to family, friends, neighbors, or people who may not have a ‘Valentine.’ 9) Love Letters Scrapbook: Parents will write a small note for each child of why they love them, and the children will do the same. Then, give each person their letters, read them, and then store them in a scrapbook year by year. 10) ‘I Love You’ Tablecloth: Get a white table cloth and pull it out each year for Valentines. Everyone will write on the table cloth each year little things they love about their parents and siblings.
5) Valentine Gifts: Identify a family or children in need and give them Valentine’s. Go to the local orphanage, visit sick kids at the hospital, go to the homeless shelter, etc. – and give these people food, clothes, toys, books, cookies, and especially some ‘Valentines.’

The Details
The bride wore a gown from David’s Bridal. Her custommade Chantilly lace veil and straps with a keyhole back yoke were designed and constructed by Sally Taibe, the mother of the bride. The gown has since been donated to “Brides for Breast Cancer.” The bridesmaids wore black dresses from Macy’s with the hope that they will actually be worn again (recycled) as little black cocktail dresses. The groom and groomsmen wore tuxedos from The Men’s Warehouse. Hair and makeup were done at Studio 71. The platinum rings were from Tiffany’s.
The Rehearsal Dinner The bride, groom, wedding party, parents of the bride, mother of the groom, close family, and friends enjoyed a rehearsal dinner at the Boardwalk in Lake George Village. The mother of the groom made homemade chocolates as favors and also provided custom made napkin rings, and topiary trees to decorate the tables. The topiary trees were used again at the church and donated for the church’s use.
Flowers for the wedding party were from Price Chopper. Plants to decorate the church from Price Chopper and Garden Time were then planted on church grounds after the ceremony. A pine tree memorialized the groom’s father and was taken by the couple to plant at their home. Each guest received a Norway spruce tree plug obtained from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation as a wedding favor. The favor tag was also made of recycled paper. Many of the guests have reported that the trees have been potted or planted already. The Unity Candle was made of palm wax by the Adirondack Chandler at the Shirt Factory. Reception centerpieces, also from Price Chopper were made of recycled glass and contained miniature white rosebushes, which guests also took home to plant.

ELIZABETHTOWN — In a meeting that lasted all of 27 minutes, the Essex County Ways and Means Committee passed a number of resolutions onto the full board Jan. 26. The Ways and Means Committee, usually scheduled to meet the last Monday of the month, met on Thursday due to the upcoming New York State Association of Counties conference in Albany, which several board members attended. All resolutions passed by the committee will be considered by the full board under the weighted voting system at the regular February Board meeting, scheduled for Monday, Feb. 6, at 10 a.m. Among the resolutions, the committee approved a pair of increases to the cost of services provided through the Public Health Department, including upping the amount of vaccinations offered from $10 per vaccination to $17, raising the cost of Certified Home Health Agency skilled nursing visits from $190 to $205 per visit and Home Health Aide visits from $50 to $55 per visit. The board also passed a pair of resolutions concerning the potential sale of the Horace Nye Nursing Home in Elizabethtown. The first was to authorize a Request for Proposals for a Phase One Environmental Evaluation of the facility, while the second was to solicit quotes for title work that needs to be done on the property. The board passed a resolution to increase the hours of the Finance Deputy in the County Treasurer ’s office from 35 to 40 hours per week. “This was proposed in the budget for 2012 in our meetings,” Treasurer Michael Diskin said. “When they approved the resolution for salaries for the year, they had the salary at 35 hours.” Diskin said that the position has incurred extra responsibilities since the elimination of one position from the department and the loss of another part-time spot. “We eliminated one position and we got rid of a part time position, so there is actually a significant savings by having this person add five hours per week to her work schedule,” Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said. “We are streamlining the department.” In resolutions from the floor, Lewis Supervisor David Blades asked for a resolution concerning the banning for sale or consumption of substances that can be used to make synthetic marijuana. “A new epidemic in this region is the use of synthetic marijuana,” Blades said. “Thirty-eight states have taken action to control one or more of the chemicals used to create synthetic marijuana and I am requesting action at the state level restricting the use or sale of these products.” Westport Supervisor Daniel Connell, who chairs the legislative committee, said that his group would start meeting after the regular monthly board meeting. Chairman and Jay Supervisor Randall “Randy” Douglas said that he wanted to committee to look at specific topics that the county could focus on when talking to federal legislators. “When we went down to Washington last year, we had a big list of issues and only a certain amount of time to meet with them,” Douglas said. “We want this committee to focus on some specific ideas or projects that we can really hit hard when we go down there this year.”
Keeseville deaths ruled double suicide By Katherine Clark
katherine@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE— The death of a Keeseville couple has been ruled as a double suicide. The deaths of Anthony W. Kusalonis, 54, and Teresa L. Fleury, 49, were caused by self inflicted gunshot wounds to the head at their 23 Hollywood Ave. home, according to a release by the Plattsburgh-based State Police. State Police were called to the home Kusalonis and Fluery shared on Jan. 28 at 7:06 p.m. Troopers discovered Kusalonis lying in the front yard with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Police later entered the trailer and found Fleury dead. Two handguns were recovered from the scene located next to each victim. State Police Lt. Scott Heggelke said the investigation included interviews and forensic evidence. Police received a call from a relative of Kusalonis who had completed suicide minutes before his relative arrived at the Hollywood Ave, home, according to Heggelke. Autopsies were performed at the Adirondack Medical Center on Jan. 29 by Dr. Jolie Rodriguez. Essex County Coroner Kelly Valentine ruled the manner of deaths as suicide.

Cat talk on a cold day L
ast week, I traveled to Whallonsburg to attend a lecture on bobcats in the Adirondacks. By the time I arrived, there were over 50 cars in the small lot, and the Grange Hall was nearly filled to capacity. There is no doubt about it, Adirondackers are curious about their cats. The event featured renowned tracker and naturalist, Sue Morse, who offered an educational and entertaining program, which combined personal observations with hard science, along with a mix of animal calls and extraordinary photography. The purpose of the program was to familiarize the audience with one of the region's most elusive creatures, the bobcat, and the extraordinary landscape it calls home. The event was sponsored by the Northeast Wilderness Trust, a Vermont-based organization responsible for conserving over 8,500 acres of wild lands throughout the northeast, since 2002. Although the organization has maintained a relatively low profile in the Adirondacks, their mission involves a comprehensive effort to create and conserve a series of linked wild lands that will permit wildlife to reestablish migration corridors throughout the vast, Northern Forest, which encompasses existing boreal forest tracts from New York to Maine and beyond into Canada. The concept of a 'wildway' is based on the science of wildlife corridors, which have been verified by observtion of the annual migrations of numerous species,ranging from birds to fish to game animals. In a sense, the fish-ladder on the Boquet River at Willsboro is a wildway. The structure was established to allow landlocked Atlantic Salmon to utilize traditional migration routes to access their historic spawning grounds upstream. After the combination of mill dams, poor water quality, and overfishing had essentially extripated the species from most area rivers by the late 1960’s, an aggressive, restocking program, combined with major cleanup efforts and a new fishladder allowed the king of sportfish to pass beyond the remnants of an old mill dam to return to their historic upstream domain.
The proposed, Split Rock Wildway is a wildlife corridor which is intended to link the Split Rock Wild Forest and the Jay Mountain Wilderness Area to the Champlain Valley and Lake Champlain. The Wildway will incorporate a diversity of natural communities in the northern forest ecosystem, including a variety of forests, rivers, wetlands, floodplains, and sub-alpine flora. “It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men’s hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.” — Robert Louis Stevenson. The wildway will incorporate numerous major flyways for hawk, songbirds, and waterfowl as well as habitat for a variety of wildlife, including mink, otter, beaver, whitetail deer, fisher and bobcats, as well as the northernmost population of eastern timber rattlesnakes. According to the Northeast Wilderness Trust, a majority of the lands proposed for the Wildway are currently in private hands, and at risk of subdivision and habitate fragmentation. Unfortunately, land preservation is a very unpopular topic in the Adirondacks. In fact, in many circles, it is an outright abomination. However, the concept of preserving, and enhancing wildlife habitate is not a foreign language to most sportsmen and women. Surely, it is not a dirty word among the birders, wildlife watchers, and the other 93 percent of travelers who continue to regularly travel and spend their hard-earned money in our neck of the woods. Certainly there are going to be critics, naysayers and non-believers who will cast doubt on the concept of megalinks and wildlife corridors. Who’s going to believe that moose, bear, deer or wildcats, are going to return to follow in the tracks of their forebears. It’s plain foolish, non-
Wild areas attract wildlife, and the wild characters that seek to hunt them in such surroundings. sense! Or is it? In just the past two years, wildlife biologists have confirmed the presence of wild mountain and wild wolf having returned to the region. For unknown reasons, truly wild lands have a real tendency to attract truly wild animals. Ask a dedicated whitetail hunter to explain why deer are always taken from the same,‘Farthest Lost Runway’ where their great grandad, grandad and father all shot their ’s. Or ask a trapper why he places his sets in a natural funnel between two brooks, or ask a duck hunter why he returns to the trapper familiar section of the big marsh year after year. They learn from observation, and so do creatures of the wild. Bears have generational trails to food sources such as berry patches or cherry trees, which their cubs learn to follow, and so on and so on. These are just a few of the links in corridors which had been established well before country roads, interstates or even hiking trails intruded on nature’s way. When moose first began to venture into New York state back in the late 1970's, they didn’t simply walk across the Champlain Bridge, or take the Essex Ferry. They did what every previous generation of moose had done, they swam across the lake. Megalinks and corridor restoration efforts are largely a concept foreign to man. The effort does not ask man to, “Build it and they will come,” rather it implores, “Don’t build it, so they’ll have room to come.” Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook.
