Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider meets Gov. David Paterson prior to the governor’s announcement that ferry service would begin at the site of the former Lake Champlain Bridge.
Ferry service begins at former bridge site By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Ferry service is now operating near the site of the former Lake Champlain Bridge. New York Gov. David Paterson visited the site Jan. 24 to announce the service and issue an apology. “I want to apologize to those on both sides of the lake for this situation,” he said. “This has been more than a loss of a bridge. It’s the loss of a way of life for the last eight decades.” Paterson said the Crown Point ferry will help bring normalcy to the local residents, but he vowed to press forward on the construction of a new span. “Only a new bridge will restore economic development and give a new quality of life to those who live and work on the shores of Lake Champlain,” the governor said.
I want to apologize to “ those on both sides of the lake...This has been more than the loss of a bridge.
”
— Gov. David Paterson The Lake Champlain Bridge, which connects Crown Point and Chimney Point, Vt., closed Oct. 16 when engineers deemed it structurally unsafe. Opened in 1929, it was demolished Dec. 21 to make way for a new bridge, which is expected to be completed by summer 2011. More than 4,000 vehicles a day used the bridge. “The free ferry service will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week until the new bridge opens,” Paterson said. The ferry will accommodate 50 cars

PORT HENRY — A final public hearing on the proposed dissolution of Port Henry will be held Thursday, Feb. 11. The meeting will be at 7 p.m. at the Port Henry Knights of Columbus at 4253 Main St. Village trustees will present the final dissolution plan to the public. The public will then be given the opportunity to ask questions and share their thoughts, opinions and input. Immediately following the public hearing, the board will hold a special meeting to adopt a resolution placing dissolution on the village election ballot. That vote will be Tuesday, March 16. At that time registered voters of the village will decide on the future existence of Port Henry. A joint village/town dissolution steering committee has been conducting a dissolution study since the early fall of 2009 with assistance from the study consultant, the Rochester-based Center for Governmental Research (CGR). The study is funded through a state grant. After several committee meetings, public meetings and a public hearing, the steering committee submitted the final dissolution plan to the village board Dec. 22. The board reviewed the final dissolution plan and formally adopted the plan by resolution at the Jan. 14 board meeting. All information regarding the dissolution study, including the final dissolution plan, may be obtained at www.cgr.org/porthenry or at the village office located at 4303 Main St.

Rotary auction to assist community projects Northern Lake George club to hold event following Hague dinner By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SILVER BAY — The Northern Lake George Rotary Club is looking for help. The club is seeking donations for its annual auction to be held as part of the Beste Scholarship dinner Saturday, Feb. 13. The dinner is held annually in conjunction with the Hague Winter Weekend. The dinner will be at 6 p.m. Saturday at the Hague fire house. The buffet dinner will be an Italian meal. Tickets are $15 for adults. The meal is being catered by Silver Bay YMCA of the Adirondacks. Following the dinner the annual Beste Scholarships will be awarded and the Northern Lake George Rotary Club will
host its auction. “The Rotary Club of Northern Lake George is dedicated to serving our neighbors, community, country and world,” said President Michelle Benedict. “Whether in supplying musical instruments to middle school children, helping with Boy Scout projects, donating food to pantries, giving to Tiny Tim, providing scholarships to high school students, helping our volunteer fire departments, sponsoring international exchange students or sending donations to needy children in other countries, we are there. “Our community support goes to Ticonderoga, Hague, Bolton and Putnam and in 2010 we have budgeted over $7,000 for our outreach purposes, all of which we must raise ourselves,” she said. People interested in making a donation can contact auction chairpeople Julie Cook at 543-6421, Beth Navitsky at 5436929 or Chip Devenger at 543-8833 ext 215. “Some of the (auction) proceeds we make will go towards helping fund the scholarship for our Ticonderoga students and the the rest will go towards community needs,” Navitsky said. “Throughout the year we receive many letters re-
questing funding for community and world wide projects. The auction along with other fund raisers will allow us to continue to see these projects go forward.” For information on the Winter Weekend call the Hague Chamber of Commerce at 543-6441.

PUTNAM — The Lake George Association has announced a new planning project for the town of Putnam. The LGA has just signed an agreement with the US Army Corps of Engineers to move forward with a stormwater planning project. The project will evaluate the current stormwater infrastructure in Putnam within the Lake George Watershed. “We’re looking at culverts, streams, roadside ditches, trenches and direct flows from the road,” according to Randy Rath, LGA project manager. “Some of the existing infrastructure is just not adequate to handle the sediment and nutrient loading into the lake.” The project will look at the Putnam lakefront communities of Gull Bay, Glenburnie and Black Point Road. “Stormwater runoff has been identified as the primary source of nutrient, bacterial contaminant and pollutant loading to Lake George in several studies,” according to the workplan of the USACOE Project Agreement. Surface runoff contributes 83 percent of the phosphorous loading to the lake. Stormwater collection is mostly directed into the lake and not contained or slowed by any method. The project locations include areas of steep terrain, narrow road crossings, almost no road shoulders, and clay soils, all of which present challenges to managing stormwater runoff. “The project will start with documenting the existing stormwater infrastructure followed by a limited hydrologic analysis on the identified sites that need improvement,” Rath said. “The identified stormwater sites will be prioritized and recommendations will be made. There is concern about the beaver dam that is located in the Glenburnie area and it will receive a full evaluation for a catastrophic dam failure. The analysis will provide any associated impacts for that scenario.” The project is part of the USACOE Planning Assistance for States Program and is a 50/50 match program. The USACOE is providing $65,000 for this project. “The LGA is contributing the cash match of $30,000 toward the project and will be adding, along with the town of Putnam, $35,000 in in-kind services to complete the local match for the planning grant,” according to LGA Executive Director Walt Lender of Ticonderoga. “We feel that there are many opportunities to improve the stormwater infrastructure along the lake in Putnam and other communities. “Rural communities like Putnam just have not had the resources available to them to identify and fix many stormwater hot spots. We hope this program will be one of many which will provide assistance to our local governments and help them protect Lake George,” continued Lender. The LGA’s in-kind services will include collecting all available geographic data and the physical collection and analysis of points in the Gull Bay area. The planning project should be completed by the end of 2011. The final recommendations generated from the stormwater investigation will used to put together a request for technical assistance from the Watershed Environmental Assistance Program. The Watershed Environmental Assistance Program operates via the Lake Champlain Basin Program in cooperation with the USACOE. If accepted as a viable project, it will receive 65 percent federal funding with a 35 percent local match.

Dolback will show, for the first time, earlier views of the ruins before they were stabilized and restored. He will celebrate the (Crown Point) Lake Champlain Bridge with old postcards and photos depicting the original roadway and bridge construction in the 1920s. “Little did we know in 2009 as we celebrated the 400th anniversary of Samuel de Champlain’s explorations, honoring Champlain and the lake he named for himself, rededicating the Rodin sculpture on the Champlain Memorial Lighthouse and placing Puz-

APA must be reformed By Fred Monroe
GUESTVIEWPOINT
Executive Director Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board
Region’s economic life is at stake
T
he Local Government Review Board does not believe that the APA should be abolished. We do believe that the APA needs to be reined in and its governing Act revised. Very clear evidence of this need is seen in recent cases where the Adirondack Park Agency threatened or attempted an enforcement action that was dropped or overturned: the Sandy Lewis farm worker housing case, the Leroy Douglas "wetlands" road case, the John Maye case about whether his house was illegally built on an existing foundation - which drew heated opposition in Lake George and other Adirondack communities and was widely reported in all Adirondack media – is more evidence of an agency overstepping its bounds. The APA is an administrative agency trying to act like a legislative body – attempting to create law and then enforce that law when it doesn't have the legal right to do so. • We believe that the primary issue in the Adirondacks, as it has been for 20 years or more, is that so much of the state's focus has been on land acquisition that any effort to encourage and protect the economic lives of the communities has been cast aside. The recent Adirondack Park Regional Assessment project Report bore this all out: The decline in school enrollment is steeper and the median age of the population is rising more rapidly than elsewhere. Household incomes are lower than in much of New York State. Sparse populations and regulatory practices have contributed to a lag in private sector investment in businesses, most notably in lack of broadband communication and data transfer infrastructure. The park-wide loss of

private sector jobs has been somewhat offset temporarily by job increases in public health care, education and government employment. The creation of permanent jobs that pay living wages and provide benefits on which a family can depend is the most fundamental need in Adirondack communities. While jobs are needed in every community in New York State, few other communities' economic deterioration is so closely associated with the state's as the communities of the Adirondack Park. • Local input and consent is the foundation of any successful project in the Adirondacks. Local officials are deeply knowledgeable about the needs of their towns and villages as well as how their towns and land uses fit in to the SLMP. The Agency was envisioned to work cooperatively with governments and landowners to preserve and foster vibrant hamlets as well as protect state Forest Preserve. But as recent times have shown – with three former members of the Adirondack Council on the agency's Board – the Agency seems more interested in targeting landowners than targeting problems. It is an inappropriate closeness – one that the environmental lobby would be upset about if the APA Board were made up of large developers or business people. • Along the same lines as local input on projects, we need more local input on the APA nominees. In order to more fully include the perspectives of the full-time residents of the Adirondacks, the five local commissioners appointed by the Governor for the Adirondack Park Agency Board should be chose from a list submitted by us each time there is an opening, as was informally done under some previous governors. • We believe there should be opportunity for judicial review of the APA's decisions by local government - but the Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board does not have standing to seek judicial review. A court decision in 1982 ruled that because the APA act didn't explicitly state that the Review Board had standing, it doesn't. The Attorney General also argued in the multi-county, multitown lawsuit against the APA, regarding the 2008 regulations, that the counties and towns lacked both capacity to sue the Agency and standing. We are seeking to change that because that means current legal decisions that directly affect the financial condition, municipal services, future growth, and programs of local governments are being made in the absence of those officials who are elected by their communities to represent the concerns of their constituents. • We have been reviewing the Tug Hill Commission's structure and mission as one example of what we'd like to see happen at the Adirondack Park Agency -- where the executive law that creates it says it is geared toward the "conservation and productive use of the natural resources of the region, strengthening the long-term economy, employment, cultural and social resources, and the general well-being of the rural communities." • We're working with local officials and Review Board members -- as well as our residents and businesses -- for input on other questions or concerns they may have. In short, without reining in the Adirondack Park Agency, and creating economic opportunities, quality employment and affordable housing (among other needs) in the Adirondack Park, the economic life of the region will continue to deteriorate.

Government must be open L
ast summer, First Lady Michelle Obama was criticized for having hired an “unprecedented number of staffers” to “cater to her every whim and to satisfy her every request in the midst of the Great Recession.” An e-mail campaign followed that included information stating that with 22 staffers with combined annual salaries of $1.6 million, the First Lady had amassed an army of employees greater than any before her. The e-mail claimed that prior first ladies had nowhere near as many employees, saying Jackie Kennedy, Rosalynn Carter and Laura Bush had just one while even Hillary Clinton had only three. The truth, of course, lay somewhere in between. When contacted by the national media, Katie McCormick Lelyveld, Michelle Obama’s press secretary, actually put the first lady’s office staff at 24. That may indeed be the largest of any first lady to date. But other assertions were way off. Hillary Clinton actually had 19 staffers answering directly to her, while Laura Bush wasn’t far behind with 18 and $1.4 million in annual salaries. In this instance the media did its job. Disclosure not only gave Americans the facts to form their own conclusions but also dispelled the hearsay that all too often runs rampant in politics. As common as this is at the federal level, it is perhaps even more so on the local level. It is for this reason that I want to publicly commend our Essex County Board of Supervisors for tackling the sensitive issue of its own hiring practices by forming an ethics committee subject to public scrutiny. Have there been instances in which relatives have received preferential treatment in obtaining a job at the county? Personally, I don’t believe so. I know many hard working county employees I’d be proud to work alongside in the private sector. I honestly don’t believe anyone was handed a job simply because of their last name. I believe County Manager Dan Palmer when he says — like any private sector employer — that a department head would want to choose the most qualified, hardest working person for the job. After all, you’re only as good as the individuals you surround yourself with. But do I believe the public has a right to know when a department head hires a direct relative or that of a county supervisor? Definitely. Unlike the private sector, county government is answerable to the taxpayer. To make informed decisions about elected officials and the policies they put in place, the public needs to know these facts. More so, they have the right to know. If for nothing else than, as in the case of Obama, to

Multi-stacking to magnify those savings
I
n previous columns, I’ve discussed coupon stacking at great length. It’s one of the easiest ways not only to reduce the cost of items we’re buying but also to get items for free. Many stores allow shoppers to stack one store coupon and one manufacturer coupon together, which gives us an even deeper discount on the same item. Just a few days ago I purchased a $2.50 tube of toothpaste. I used a $1.50 manufacturer coupon for the toothpaste and I added to it a $1 store-issued coupon for the same toothpaste. With a total of $2.50 in coupon value, the toothpaste was free! And free is, of course, my favorite price to pay. Store coupons are offered in different formats, so it’s important to note which kinds your stores offer. Do some research. Many stores print their store coupons in a weekly flyer. Others offer printable coupons on the store’s Web site. Still others offer store coupons electronically. These electronic coupons can be loaded to your shoppers’ card and stacked with manufacturer coupons for additional savings. Now, when we combine coupon stacking with other deals running at the store at the same time, our savings increase even more. What’s better than stacking? Multi-stacking! When we multi-stack at the store, we use both store and manufacturer coupons and take advantage of additional moneyback deals involved. These additional deals typically offer instant savings at the register or a money-back coupon (commonly called a Catalina) that prints at the register for savings on a subsequent shopping trip. Here’s an example. One of my stores recently advertised a sale offering a Catalina coupon good for $5 off your next shopping trip if you purchased any two items in the flyer. When I see an advertisement like this, I immediately look for the items that are going to be the best deals — typically, the items for which I already have both store and manufacturer coupons. During this particular sale, the store had triple-packs of baby wipes on sale for $5.99. Buying two items in the promotion will earn me a $5 coupon for my next shopping trip. To keep track of my savings, I always figure that $5 savings into my current shopping trip. I may pay that $5 out-of-pocket at the register to buy these items today but I get it right back in the form of a Catalina good for $5 off my next shopping trip. So, buying two packages of wipes costs $11.98 but I’ll get $5 of that back at checkout. That essentially brings the cost of the two packages of wipes down to $6.98 for 2 packages.
To bring the price down further, we’re going to stack coupons here, too! I had a manufacturer coupon for $2 off 2 packages of wipes. The wipes were also on my electronic store coupons for $1.50 off each package. So, stacking these coupons together yields another $5 in savings. After coupons, I paid $6.98 for the two triple-packs of baby wipes and I received the $5 Catalina coupon at the register. Since I got $5 of my original $6.98 back, the end cost of these two items was just $1.98! Triple-packs of baby wipes at less than a dollar a package? That’s a great price … made possible by By Jill Cataldo multi-stacking! Consider that each triplepack started out at $5.99 before all of these discounts were put together. Any time I see sales at the supermarket that involve money-back promotions, I always look for both store and manufacturer coupons to help reduce the final price I pay even further. In the weeks ahead, I’ll show you more examples of multi-stacking and explain how to make the most out of these promotions.

To the Times of Ti:
To the Times of Ti:
Hi! I am turning 75 years old, of a century, this coming June and I was thinking that there might be some folks out there in Times of Ti land that might like to share some memories along with me. At my age I sorta can’t remember things like I use to! Over the years I have had some good care keepers and that has helped me keep in pretty good shape. My bones are made of steel and they are holding up fine and maybe a little attention is needed around my brick joints here and there, but my big problem now, like many others at my age, is my ‘memberin’ things. And this is where maybe your kind readers could help out. Over the years so many folks have been part of my life and I would like to meet up with them again. My earliest recollection is of young military lads that were with the 106th Ambulance Company of the National Guards. Later as time went on there were many other young men around here and they belonged to this and that company or regiment. What do you remember? I can’t remember the number that passed through my doors to help fight our enemies in far away lands. Most recently some of them had to go land called Iraq. Oh, how I would like to see their faces and hear their stories again! Sometimes I think of those good times when basketball and other sports were played on my courts. How many times have I been decorated to the rafters and the music played late into the night? Do you remember? There are occasions when I hear faint echoes from the many young kids who hooted and hollered and had the time of their life here. Often my kitchen was full of clattered while numerous meals were being prepared. Schools, training classes and a place to bunk brought so many more through my doors. So many stories to tell, but I just can’t remember them all! Please, readers — you out there in Times of Ti land — refresh my memory. At 75, it doesn’t bother me to ask for a little help from time to time so I have asked my good friend Bill Dolback, Ticonderoga’s historian to help me. If any of you would like to share your memories, pictures or an old souvenir would be good, but anything that can help us jog the old grey cells would be appreciated. You can call Bill at 585-6662, or if it’s easier, drop into the Community Building and leave your remembrances with the Ticonderoga town clerk. If I get enough responses, I feel we should consider a party and celebrate the past 75 years! What do you think? Thank you. Old Ti Armory
Ti Arts appreciative To the Times of Ti: Ticonderoga Arts wants to thank Jim Gilbert for his generous donation of building space at 84 Montcalm St. for our organization. Because of Jim’s support of the arts, our gallery got its start. During the two years we were located in LaChute Square, the number of contributing local artists grew from eight to 18. Though his generosity, Ticonderoga Arts became a reality. Thank you, Jim! Jerry Cooper Ticonderoga Arts Chairman
Auxiliary thankful To the Times of Ti: The Port Henry Fire Department Auxiliary once again finds itself thanking the community for the support generated for the second annual toy drive. The first part of our toy drive this year began with our first Christmas in July/Community Day held at Port Henry Beach on July 11. We have many people to thank that made this event a success: Marge and Frank Seguin, operators of the Port Henry Beach, for use of their facilities and allowing us to hold our event at the beach; Greg and Laura Muniz of George’s Restaurant for your party supplies; Catherine Sprague a/k/a Penelope for entertaining the children and playing Christmas music; Walt Wojewodzic of Gene’s for ordering our barbecue supplies; firemen Brian Venne, Rich Defelice, Danny Bryant, Nestor Rodriguez and Phil Smith for helping the auxiliary with set up and clean up; Haley Waldron for donating your time all day; the PTA who purchased a vendor spot to support the auxiliary; Candy and Tom Baker and Keith Peters for delivering and letting us use your fast plopping chicken; our area local businesses who donated items for the Chinese Auction; to everyone who donated items for our local food pantry, brought a new toy for the toy drive, purchased ducks, raffle tickets or a spot on the board for the chicken plop; and last but not least, we thank all of the children who played tug of war, ball toss, ring toss, golf putt, participated in the treasure hunt, and firemen boot relay race---we commend you for your patience, manners and fairness during the Reindeer Games. You were a great group! We had various winners throughout the day for the Chinese Auction, raffles and guessing games. The winners of the fully decorated Christmas trees donning red, black and silver ornaments were Ariel Beebe and Grace Harker. It took less than 20 seconds for Candy an Tom Bakers’ chicken to go into the cage and do its businesses, before making Travis Sharp a $50 winner in the chicken plop event. The big event of the day was the duck race; 200 plastic yellow ducks were sent down Mill Brook racing to the finish line. Winners were: Alex Rich $100; Laura Muniz $50; Bill Carpenter $25. Becky Cuttings’ duck came in last place, earning her the booby prize, a floating water noodle. Thank you auxiliary members Laura Venne and Jeannie Ball for retrieving all of the ducks. We know the water was as cold as the air, even though it was July! Last, but not least, we would like to thank Santa for finding the time in his busy schedule to make an appearance in Port Henry in the middle of July, but next year Santa please know that it won’t be necessary to bring the North Pole weather with you. The second part of our toy drive started in November with toy drop-off boxes and change buckets being placed throughout the community. In addition to the individual community support, area businesses also contributed monetary donations. Working jointly with Families First, St. Patrick’s Church and Moriah Central School’s Adopt-aFamily, we joined together to make sure each family on the lists received presents under the tree Christmas morning. That alone is a wonderful feeling. We could not have done it without each other and without the individual and business community support. A special thank you goes out to Laurie and Jim Scorsome and Marilyn and Chuck Vanderhoof. Thank you for everything you did! It seems there is always a fundraiser or activity going on in our town. Our area businesses get asked to donate all of the time. With Christmas being the season of giving, and even through these tough economic times, the support received this time of year was truly overwhelming. On behalf of the PHFD auxiliary we would like to say thank you everyone and that we truly appreciate the community we live in and the support that is always generated.

Jeannie Ball, Vice President; Laura Venne, Secretary; Lynsey Bilodeau, Treasurer; Members Paula Huchro, Gail Waldron, Billie Jo O’Donnell, Tina Martin, Erin Pooler, Boni Edwards, Beth Slycord, Emily Fortier, Laura Muniz, Tonya Vassar, Shannon Brassard and Joan Daby

This past year has been a great stress on so many people. Our small food pantry had met all the requests for food. This would not have been possible without the support of many individuals, organizations, and businesses. Thanks are needed to be given! It is impossible to list all the individuals. You know who you and we thank you for the cash, the food items, the gift certificates and practical supplies. There are two individuals who do need special recognition Pat Sawyer and Kathy Hyatt. They sort, arrange and give out the bulk of the needed items. The loss of the ferry also lost one of our contributors. However, the following helped us have success: the Boy Scouts, the Cub Scouts, Crown Point Central School for the various drives at all grade levels, the U.S. Postal service drives, the Past Masters and Wardens of the Masons, the United Methodist Women, Frenchman’s Family Restaurant, the First Congregational Church, Mac’s Market. A special thanks goes the the United Methodist Church for providing us with a place to have the pantry. Jesus said: “Where were you when I was Hungry?” Thanks for helping to be the helpers.

Good government is open government, and it should be the job of not only the media but the public as a whole to demand that. Following the article we published a few weeks ago reporting that Sandy Lewis addressed the county board urging full disclosure with the county’s hiring practices, we were criticized on a number of fronts. We were criticized for singling out people. We were criticized for not having the facts straight when the article
first broke — for sensationalizing a non-issue in the interest of “selling papers.” (My personal favorite, considering our papers are free.) Valid arguments, although ones I would dispute. The facts in this case were anything but easy to acquire, and they remain not fully disclosed to this day. Nevertheless, Lewis and the subsequent media coverage at least started a dialogue — one that has led to greater transparency. Call it the journalist in me — but I can’t see the downside to that. John Gereau is managing editor of Denton Publications. Comments on this and other columns and articles are welcome at www.denpubs.com.

CROWN POINT • TIMES OF TI - 15
Coast Guard Auxiliary plans Crown Point meeting CROWN POINT — The Bridge Flotilla will be hold its February meeting at the Crown Point Telephone Co conference room Monday, Feb. 15, at 7 p.m. Anyone interested in joining the Coast Guard Auxiliary is encouraged to attend. Entrance is through the door off the company parking area. Promptness is required as the door is locked at 7 p.m. for security reasons. Flotilla 15-13 is looking for new members. Because of the
Crown Point From page 1 each trip and will be operated by the Lake Champlain Ferry Transportation Co. The press conference featured remarks by Paterson, Gee, New York State Sen. Betty Little, New York Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward, Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider, Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava, Vermont Agency of Transportation Secretary David Dill and Vermont Rep. Diane Lanpher. Each took a turn thanking commuters for their patience and praising each other — particularly Paterson — for reacting to the situation so quickly. “The bridge closure has turned lives upside down,” Little said. “Things won’t return to normal until the new bridge is built and opened, but today marks a significant step forward to help commuters, families, farmers, businesses and others who have been enduring a very difficult situation since Oct. 16. Working with Gov. Paterson, administration officials and state and local representatives, I look forward to seeing quick progress on building a new bridge. I do want to take this opportunity that recognize and thank the workers who have put in the long hours
bridge construction and the ferry operations, it will be a busy season on Lake Champlain. The auxiliary will be available and operating a number of patrols throughout the summer for assistance and information to the boating fraternity. In addition to the patrols, Flotilla 15-13 will conduct safe boating classes and will be in attendance for Career Day at the Ticonderoga Middle School. Students planning on a
of tough work to make this ferry service possible.” Sayward said, “I am very pleased with this ferry becoming operational, and thank Gov. Paterson and the Department of Transportation, as well as Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas and the Vermont Agency of Transportation, for their efforts on returning this vital interstate lifeline. This is a huge step to alleviate the travel burdens for local communities in New York and Vermont, and I look forward to working with the governor to ensure that a permanent bridge is in place as soon as possible.” Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider said Paterson’s visit was a sign of the governor ’s commitment to the area. “I am so pleased that the governor took time from his overwhelming schedule to travel to Crown Point and speak to the people about the upcoming ferry service,” she said. “I know we appreciate all the work and dedication that has gone into this endeavor. Our time has come." Moriah Supervisor Thomas R. Scozzafava thanked the governor in prepared remarks. “On behalf of our constituents I want to express our sincere thanks to Gov. Paterson for the caring and compassion that he has shown during this very difficult period,” Scozzafava said. “The closure of the Lake Champlain Bridge has
caused untold hardships for many, and the opening of the new ferry crossing will help provide much needed relief.” The governor outlined the steps taken by New York State government, which arranged for public transportation and set up an economic assistance program for businesses, since the bridge closure. But none of those steps are enough, he said, for commuters forced to drive an extra 100 miles to and from work and appointments. Paterson then announced the expansion of New York’s $2.94 million Lake Champlain Bridge Economic Assistance Program. The Essex County Industrial Development Agency will manage a Community Loan Fund for businesses affected by the bridge closure, he said. More information is available by calling the Empire State Development at 1-800-7828369 or by email at champlainbridge@empire.state.ny.us People can also contact the Essex County IDA at 873-9114. Business owners and industries affected by the Lake Champlain Bridge closure can also apply for economic assistance through the Retail Assistance Grant and Increased Travel Cost Grant/Transport Assistance Grant programs. Information on those programs is available online at www.empire.state.ny.us/ChamplainBridge/default.asp
Coast Guard career are encouraged to join the auxiliary. The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary is a uniformed, civilian component of the United States Coast Guard and the Department of Homeland Security. The organization, established by Congress, exists as a force multiplier for the Coast Guard providing boater safety and education, marine safety patrols, vessel inspections as well as many other duties other than law enforcement.

SMART Boards
Donations give Schroon school technology By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — Schroon Lake Central School classes a little smart these days thanks to alumni.
Graduates have donated four “SMART boards” to the school. “SMART boards” project computer scenes from terminals onto a whiteboard allowing an entire class to see it. Touch technology allows teachers to move through lesson plans and programs. “The ‘SMART board’ has greatly increased student participation and excitement. It is great to see them so engaged in learning,” said teacher Cookie Barker. “The potential for classroom application is huge and we are focusing our efforts on expanding professional development in order to meet the needs of today’s learner.” The boards have been donated by the Donald Anslow, Jr.
Schroon accident fatal
Sarah Garcia, a student at Schroon Lake Central School, uses “SMART board” technology in a math class. The school recently received donations to purchase four of the learning tools.
SCHROON LAKE — A Warrensburg man was killed and another critically injured in a snowmobile accident in Schroon Lake Jan. 31. Benjamin A. Round, 21, died and Richard G. Stewart, 33, of Diamond Point injured in the crash. Round was operating a 2002 Yamaha snowmobile westbound on Schroon Lake with Stewart as a passenger when the snowmobile struck a two-foot snow embankment causing the snowmobile to go airborne and eject both riders before crashing on the ice, according to state police. Neither Round nor Stewart were wearing helmets. The investigation revealed both alcohol and speed were contributing factors to the accident, police said. Round was transported by the Schroon Lake Rescue Squad to Moses Ludington Hospital in Ticonderoga, where he was pronounced deceased. Stewart was airlifted to Albany Medical Center, where he is listed in critical condition. An autopsy was performed on Round at the Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake Feb. 1. It determined the cause of death to be blunt force head trauma. The Essex County Corner declared the manner of death as accidental.

Essex County Board of Supervisors Chair Randy Douglas and Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava (center) talk with Gov. David Paterson following a news conference on the opening of the new Crown Point Ferry. They made the case to keep the Moriah Shock Incarceration Facility open.
Scozz takes fight to Albany Moriah supervisor to meet governor about local prison By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com PORT HENRY — Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava will meet with Gov. David Paterson this week to state the case for the Moriah Shock Incarceration Facility. Scozzafava and Randy Douglas, chairman of the Essex County Board of Supervisors, are scheduled to sit down with the governor in Albany Feb. 9. It will be the second time the two local leaders have had face-to-face talks with Paterson about the Moriah prison, which is scheduled to be closed in April 2011 as part of the governor ’s plan to trim the state budget deficit. Scozzafava and Douglas met with Paterson Jan. 24 when the governor was in Crown Point to announce the opening a ferry service there. “I think it went very well,” Scozzafava said of the meeting. “It was brief, maybe five minutes, but he certainly listened to what we had to say. He promised he would look into the reasons they chose Moriah (Shock) and he’d get back to us personally. “We’re going to meet again Feb. 9,” the Moriah supervisor said. The facility in Mineville houses non-violent offenders in a military boot camptype program that involves exercise, physical labor, aca-
demics and substance abuse treatment. It is one of four shock incarceration facilities in the state, housing 170 inmates. With 100 employees, the prison is Moriah’s secondlargest employer. Under Paterson’s proposal no one will lose their job, but Moriah Shock employees would have to transfer to another corrections facility. The community demonstrated its support for the shock facility at a rally Jan. 25 in Port Henry. About 200 people attended, including state Sen. Betty Little and Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward. “The community, employees, everyone is rallying to keep the facility open,” Scozzafava said, noting the people who need to be convinced weren’t at the rally. The governor could spare the Moriah Shock Incarceration Facility or the state legislature could do do it. Little and Sayward have expressed their support for the prison. “The governor has the executive power to save Moriah,” Scozzafava said. “That’s my goal, to convince the governor it’s in the state’s best interest to keep
the prison open.” Scozzafava said the local facility should remain open based on merit. The shock program is successful and the Moriah camp is in excellent condition with a proven track record, he said. Closing the facility would be a blow to Moriah, the supervisor noted. “The next closest facility is 60 miles one way,” Scozzafava said. “That will create a tremendous hardship for employees and force people from our community.”
If Moriah Shock closes there will be ripple affect through the community, Scozzafava said. “We can not afford to lose this facility,” he said. “If it closes we’ve lost those jobs forever. The impact on small businesses in the town will be substantial.” The Moriah Shock Incarceration Facility was constructed in 1988 as part of a state effort to boost the local economy. That same year Moriah was designated as the lone rural state Economic Development Zone.

Trustees concerned with trash MORIAH — Parts of Moriah stink, literally. Town officials acknowledged garbage is accumulating around some residences in the community, creating health and aesthetic concerns. Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said at the Jan. 12 town board meeting some residents are allowing trash to build up at the homes and are not having it removed. The situation is a violation of both town health and codes laws, he noted. “In the interest of public health we can not allow this situation to continue,” he said, noting the garbage attracts rats and other animals that carry diseases. Scozzafava pointed out a local law adopted last year that makes each property owner in the community responsible for trash disposal. He said if people don’t remove their garbage, the town will do it and the property owner will be charged.

LaPann Memorial Road Race on tap in Hague By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com HAGUE — Area runners will once again honor a local legend when they lace ’em up for the Fred LaPann Memorial Road Race. The 5-mile race is held each year in conjunction with the annual
Scholarship Weekend. This year ’s race will be Saturday, Feb. 13. The race will start and finish at the Hague fire house. The course is an out-and-back race on West Hague Road. Race registration is at 8:15 a.m. and the run begins at 9 a.m. Runners age 19 and younger can com-
pete for free, while adult racers will pay a $7 registration fee. The race is named for LaPann, an accomplished Hague runner who died in 2001. “Fred LaPann was very encouraging to the young runners in our schools,” said Dave Rutkowski, the retired cross country and track
coach at Ticonderoga High School and a member of the LaChute Road Runners Club. “Fred was instrumental in the establishment of the LaChute Road Runners, whose primary purpose is to promote running to the youth of our area,” he said. “He was a great role model, and
was always willing to take kids to road races,” Rutkowski added. “He was very challenging to the rest of us by being very fast. We measured our success by how close we were to Fred LaPann at a race. On top of all of this he was humble about his ability. Fred was, and still is, ‘The Champ of Hague.’”
Schroon uniforms honor late Mountainside hoopster By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — The Schroon Lake Central School girls basketball team is looking sharp this season. Not only has their play been good, the Wildcats are sporting new home and away uniforms thanks to a donation. Betsi and Mike Calhoun donated money for the uniforms in memory of their late daughter, Misty. A former Mountainside Christian Academy (Class of 1996) player, Misty grew up in Schroon Lake. She died in a car accident in 2002. “Mrs. Calhoun came to a game and saw our uniforms were old and in disrepair,” explained Coach Lee Silvernail. “She approached the school and offered to donate money for new uniforms.” The uniforms were badly needed, the coach said. “The numbers were falling off our old uniforms,” Silvernail said. “They were torn and faded. They were pretty beat up.” Silvernail said he and his players appreciate the Calhouns’ gift. Betsi Calhoun remembers seeing the Wildcats play in their old uniforms. “I was sitting in the

Calhoun said her family is pleased they could help the Schroon Lake girls team. “Most of the girls know about Misty,” she said. “She
was an all-out player; she loved the game. “She was a wonderful girl, a wonderful Christian,” she added. “People loved her. She was going into counseling and wanted to work with teen-age girls. We thought
this was something we could do in her memory. I know she would be pleased.” The Lady Wildcats are pleased, too. “The girls varsity basketball team and I appreciate what Mrs. Betsi Calhoun has
done in order for our team to have new uniforms,” said Mindy Whitty, a senior player. “We have not had new uniforms in over 10 years. Our first game with the new uniforms, we felt so determined with them on and we
went on to beat Bolton Landing. “She donated money towards the uniforms in memory of her daughter,” Whitty said. “They look outstanding and we are proud to wear them.”

A woodland playground refound
Buffalo Rock is a huge glacial erratic located at the base of the cliffs of Cobble Hill in Elizabethtown.
O
in the lower elevations of the Boquet Valley, the ‘shoes proved beneficial the higher we went. The climb was short but steep and we were at the base of the cliffs in less than an hour ’s time. Memories from boyhood days bounced around in my noggin as we crested a small rise overlooking the village of Elizabethtown and the Pleasant Valley beyond. I winced with the realization that my last visit had occurred when my daughter was just six years old and it was hard to swallow the fact that she’ll soon be graduating college in the spring. The climb to Cobble was always one of my favorites. Peering down on the valley below, you couldn’t see many people, and if you did; they were very small and far away and they didn’t much matter. We were boys then, without the cares, responsibilities and common grievances of grown men. We played among the boulders and in caves, which sheltered ice all summer long. The place offered mystery and an escape from the summer ’s heat. There was Hollow Rock, a towering, forty-foot monolith with a small cave in the pitted stone and a short distance beyond laid the Buffalo Stone, a near perfect, natural sculpture that resembled a buffalo at rest. This was a playground in my youth, and it looked the same, with forests, cliffs and caves. As I negotiated my way over, through and around the vast expanse of snowcovered boulders, it became difficult to disguise my delight. I had the sensation of viewing the scene through a child’s eyes. Though the hollowed cave was much smaller than I remembered, in retrospect, it was likely because I’d grown so much larger. But Buffalo Rock, it was still huge! It was enjoyable to share the journey with a friend and to recall those younger days, which often feel so far away. Yet on such familiar ground, it was easy to recapture the mood, the excitement of discovery and the sheer pleasure of again sharing a ‘secret spot’ with someone for the first time. And I will admit, it was encouraging to know that I can still make it back up there. Amid the hustle and bustle of everyday life, adults often forget the definition of recreation, a process of re-creating and re-learning how to play. It is a vital exercise that is restorative of self and spirit and when practiced in a woodland setting; it can be especially effective in enabling one to recapture their youth. The famed psychiatrist Sigmund Freud, once a visitor to the Adirondacks, defined wilderness as “a special place, where a man can become lost and yet find himself in the process.” It’s good for the soul to become lost on occasion, even if it is difficult to erase that wide grin from your face upon being found.
ver the course of the past week, I’ve had the opportunity to enjoy a number of winter ’s recreational, pleasures, from skiing to skating to snowshoeing to sledding and more. Regardless of the deep freeze that settled in last week, skiers and skaters, sledders and anglers were out in force. While snow depths still vary considerably depending on the location, there remains plenty of the white stuff to go around. In fact, in the Champlain Valley, a new record was established as January’s accumulated snowfall of 48.5 inches set an historic standard for the month. But before the climate change naysayers attempt to use the new record as evidence to refute global warming; it is important to note that 28.5 inches of the snowfall was delivered in just one storm. We should not forget that the oddball weather also delivered over two inches of rain, flash floods, 50 mph gale force winds and 55-degree days, in January. Such extremes provide an alarming indication of the weather we can expect in the future. It is a more reliable index than the freak snowstorm that dumped over two feet of snow. The experts agree that with continued climate change, such extremes in weather will no longer be considered extreme. In fact, such oddities are likely to become the norm as thaws and heavy rains, soaring heat and extended droughts combine with bitter cold, biting winds and deep snows in an escalating, seesaw pattern of variations in weather. The Adirondacks will experience earlier ice outs and fewer ski days, wetter summers and hunting seasons that pass with little or no snow cover. Drier springs and searing summers will bring lower water levels and deplete oxygen content. Oxygen deficient fish will become sluggish and algae growth will flourish. The effects of climate change will bring major affects to our traditional patterns of outdoor recreation. The decade of the 1990’s delivered the warmest weather in recorded history, following on the tail of the 1980’s and the ‘70’s. The changes will occur in our lifetime and will impact everything from tourism to transportation and flood control to home heating. We may actually be living Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray in a time that will be known as “the good old days.” Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net Such thoughts were on my mind last week, as I snowshoed through a mixed hardwood forest on my way to visit some old familiar, childhood haunts located on Cobble Hill in Elizabethtown. Elizabeth Lee, a local guide, naturalist and outdoor writer from Westport accompanied me on the trip. The purpose of the trek, beyond the simple pleasures of enjoying the winter woods, was to revisit the site of the many boyhood adventures I had experienced in a wild, boulder strewn, landscape located at the base of Cobble Hill’s sheer cliffs. Although it is considered just a mere hill, Cobble dominates the local landscape and looms large over the village, in the valley below. In the eyes of the local kids, it was huge. It was our Mount Marcy and every climb was an adventure.

tate environmental officials should be releasing deer harvest figures for 2009 any day now, but indications are that northern zone totals could be down by as much as 20 percent. DEC Wildlife Biologist Ed Reed said he’s been told by Albany staff to expect deer take results “in early February.” If the indications ring true, the overall northern zone take could be in the neighborhood of 27,000-29,000 deer, down from 33,938 in 2008 and 31,797 in 2007. Nevertheless, the DEC believes statewide totals will remain fairly flat from 2008, or slightly below the 222,979 deer taken during the 2008 season. That compares to 219,141 taken in 2007, and 189,108 in 2006. The highest total came in 2002 when hunters took 308,216 deer, 128,292 of which were bucks. Reed attributed the poor northern zone take to difficult weather conditions, saying the deer simply weren’t moving as much during daylight hours. From my personal experience, that certainly was the case, although some areas that got hit hardest by harsh conditions last winter seemed to have less deer this season than usual. Near my home in Westport, however, the deer are out in force. I counted 37 merrily feeding away in one field a few evenings ago. It doesn’t appear as if last winter had much of an effect on the herd there.
Silver Bullet Meanwhile, Dick Johndrow, AKA “Silver Bullet,” sent me a photo of a massive 20-pointer he scored for a 41year-old hunter from Long Island. It is pictured above. Johndrow serves as measurer chairman for the New York State Big Buck Club. The 20-pointer, taken with a bow on Oct. 26, 2009 by Bjorn Holubar, scored a net Boone & Crockett 202 and 5/8 inches, making it the number two non-typical buck killed with a bow in the state. The deer weighed 210 pounds, had 10 non-typical points including a unique drop tine and had an inside spread of 20 and 3/8 inches. The deer was dropped at 43 yards with a Bowtech Mighty Mite Bow and a 100-grain Muzzy broadhead. Bjorn, according to Johndrow, hunted a total of 60 days last fall.

On the move For a caregiver, one of the most anxiety-causing side effects of dementia is wandering. With this diagnosis, caregivers come to expect severe memory loss and confusion as to time and place, but usually they are not prepared for the constant “watch” they must have on their loved one. Nearly 60 percent of all people with dementia wander, especially in the middle stages. There are many facets to this unpredictable behavior, and the causes are as numerous as the tactics people have used to curtail them. In the end, knowing an individual’s personality, prior lifestyle and triggers which may send them “on the move” will make all the difference.
Knowledge is key If a previous homemaker was accustomed to retrieving hr children from the bus every day at 3:30 pm, and as a senior with dementia, she wanders at that time habitually, it’s time to connect the dots. Her wandering pattern is the reason people wake up at the same time each morning without an alarm clock. Those set schedules become a part of the person. No two individuals have identical life experiences and past daily routines; not even driving or walking habits.
