TICONDEROGA — The courtyard of the Heritage Commons Nursing Home provided the setting as Inter-Lakes Health staff and board of directors hosted the May Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce After-Business Mixer. Chamber members and guests were given a tour of the Inter-Lakes Health Care facility and nursing home. Professional and administrative staff was on hand in each of the departments, where they readily shared all that Inter-Lakes has to offer our community. “Those in attendance were extremely impressed with the updated technology and equipment not often seen in rural hospitals,” said Sandra Bolton, Inter-Lakes board chairwoman. “The new digital mammogram machine and bone density-scanning device were especially impressive as was the physical therapy department and lab.” In addition, Medical Director Dr. Sue Freyhofer provided an overview of rural health care and its challenges. David Yoke and Richard Gordon from Liberty Affordable Housing shared architectural drawings of the proposed renovation of the Moses Ludington Hospital. An application for a federal grant has been submitted and it is expected that the review process will be completed in the next few months. The grant would provide the means to renovate the old hospital and create 18 senior citizen housing units. Should the project come to fruition there will be “lights on the hill again,” stated Yoke, assistant director of Liberty Housing. In addition the grant would help save a historic landmark that has long been a centerpiece of the Ticonderoga community, he noted. “The chamber mixer was a great success with community members and hospital personnel sharing a positive vision for our community,” Bolton said.

Rotary welcomes French visitors Exchange group tours Ti Cartoon Museum, Silver Bay By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Xavier Righini didn’t realize the role his country played in American history until he visited the Ticonderoga area. “You have much history here,” the French visitor said. “We French have been here many, many years.” Righini was one of five French visitors brought to the area recently by the Group Study Exchange sponsored by Rotary. After having breakfast with the Northern Lake George Rotary Club at Silver Bay, the group visited the Ticonderoga Cartoon Museum and Fort Ticonderoga. The local stop was part of a two-week visit to the United States. Righini learned a great deal about his nation’s role in the French and Indian War and American Revolution, he said. “It’s been a wonderful experience,” said Cecile Levenez as she toured the cartoon museum. “Americans are very open-minded people and very friendly. I feel welcomed.” Joining Righini and Levenez on the tour were Francois Roche, Sevastien Ferrarini and Francois Prats. Stan Burdick, a Rotary member and director of the Ti Cartoon Museum, gave the group a tour of his facility, pointing out French influences on American cartooning. “They’re fascinated with our history and the lake (Lake George),” said Beth Barton-Navitsky, who served as a guide along with fellow Rotarian Diane Dickson. “At Silver Bay they hated to leave; they couldn’t believe how beautiful the lake is,” Barton-Navitsky said. “I think they’ve enjoyed their visit.”

Bed race added to Ti’s July 4th line up By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A tradition will return during this year ’s “Best Fourth in the North” celebration. A bed race will be held along
Ticonderoga’s Montcalm Street following the Montcalm Mile and before the annual July 4th parade. “We encourage individual, associations, organizations and businesses to participate,” said Molly Bechard of the July 4th committee,
noting Ti used to host a bed race. “We hope to bring back something fun and something that people look forward to watching.” The 24th annual Montcalm Mile will race along the parade route at 1:45 p.m. It will be followed by the

bed race and then the annual parade at 2 p.m. The bed race will start at the Ti fire house and end at the Heritage Museum. It will feature five-member teams. “At the halfway point there will be a fire drill,” Bechard said. “The (team) member on the bed will have to take a pusher ’s spot and a pusher will have to become a rider. Silly costumes are encouraged, but please keep in mind this is a family event.” There will be a $25 registration fee for each team. A section of the fire house parking lot will be set aside for beds. Registration, rules and registration forms for the race can be obtained on line at best4thinthenorth.com or at Century 21. Tentative plans call for a fourday celebration in 2010. Festivities in Bicentennial Park are expected to start Thursday, July 1, with the annual amusement rides, games, vendors and entertainment. Bands The Heard and Lord Howe are scheduled to perform in the park on Friday. Daniel Ray Edwards will return for a Saturday performance. The committee is arranging to have an Elvis impersonator perform on Sunday prior to the annual fireworks display. Sunday will also feature the annual Montcalm Mile road race and
the traditional July 4th parade. The annual Montcalm Mile will start in front of Wicker Ford on Wicker Street and proceed down Montcalm Street to the finish at the Heritage Museum. A record field of more than 200 runners competed in the 2009 Montcalm Mile. Race director Jim Cunningham hopes to top that mark this year. It’s a downhill course that virtually assures runners of personal bests and attracts most of the region’s top athletes. Also attracting runners is the fact the race is run minutes prior to Ticonderoga’s annual Fourth of July parade, which means hundreds of spectators line the course offering encouragement. Registration starts at 1 p.m. at Wicker Ford. For entry information contact Cunningham, 26 Amherst Ave., Ticonderoga (Email jim4c4@yahoo.com). Race information can also be found online at the LaChute Road Runners Club website — www.lachute.us Entry fee is $8 for adults and $4 for children younger than age 16. Awards will be presented to all finishers. Age group results will be posted on the web site. www.lachute.us The male course record is held by Rick Bush who ran the mile in 4 minutes, 3 seconds. The women’s record is held by Dana Ostrander Bush in 4:41.

Fort Ticonderoga recently hosted a College For Every Student peer mentoring workshop for students in area school districts.
Fort Ti hosts area CFES students TICONDEROGA — Most people visit Fort Ticonderoga to learn about “America’s fort.” Yet the 50 students from schools throughout the Adirondack region who came to the Fort’s Mars Education Center recently weren’t thinking about the site’s history. Quite the opposite. They were arming themselves for the future by sharing ideas and activities with their fellow students from around the region. A Peer Mentoring Best Practices Workshop was held at the fort. The Adirondack schools represented at the workshop are among the 130 schools
and districts nationwide that are part of College For Every Student. Based in Cornwall, Vt., CFES is a nonprofit organization committed to helping underserved youth prepare for, gain access to, and succeed in college. “Today was a fabulous networking opportunity,” said Missy Wilkins, CFES director of mentoring. “Everyone had something of value to share, and everyone left energized and fortified with new ideas that will strengthen their mentoring programs.” The 50 Adirondack students, ranging from grades 4-12, came from as far away
as Keeseville and Fort Covington and as close by as Ticonderoga. Yet in spite of their regional commonality, each school’s program was unique in design and appeal. Ticonderoga wants to try out Northern Adirondack’s Relay for Life and mentormentee breakfasts next year. Keeseville Elementary School students wanted to hear more about Ticonderoga’s annual kayaking trip and recent fundraising efforts for a mentor-mentee trip to Boston. “It is good to hear what other schools in the area are doing for mentoring because you can't stand still.

You have to hear from others to keep growing and learning. Even little ideas can morph and grow into something unexpected, something exciting,” said Samantha Eggleston, middle school guidance counselor at Ticonderoga. Following the workshop, the students had lunch and toured the fort prior to heading back to their schools.

6 - TIMES OF TI • OPINION
SATURDAY June 12, 2010
Vote yes on Ti school budget To the Times of Ti: Mr. (Rudy) Meola’s recent Times of Ti letter prompted this response. Ticonderoga’s school budget defeat reflects a sorry day since it deflects from our children’s educational wellbeing in a 21st century educational environment. Our school board officials are competent, conscientious citizens who eschew a “business as usual” approach and espouse high performance standards from district employees. Through their Excellence in Education advocacy and under the leadership of an exceptional superintendent and an enthusiastic staff, our district has achieved national recognition as an outstanding educational institution. Constructive criticism is healthy
but singling out the superintendent with subtle slurs seems peevish and petty. Administrative salaries are comparable to similar districts and staff salaries are determined by union negotiations. High salaried positions will disappear by attrition. Considering current economic conditions, school budgets are a challenge. District leaders realize the present fiscal crisis and endeavor to maintain minimal costs without diminishing quality education. Unfortunately, unfunded state mandates and the No Child Left Behind Act hinder budget modifications. Increased property assessments and a differentiated tax rate for Essex and Warren counties compound the dilemma. We should focus on school finance
reform by lobbying state legislators to abolish school funding through property taxation and adopt a more equitable means to fund education. As a previous generation sacrificed for our education; we should follow. It is time to accentuate the positive; latch on to the affirmative; and stop messing with the in-betweens — our students and their instructional providers. Let us reverse May 18th’s budget decision and support our most precious commodity, our children. Please say yes on the June 15 budget vote to ensure “Sentinels for Success.” Virginia LaPointe Ticonderoga
School board has little regard for taxpayers To the Times of Ti: One would wonder when the tax payer of Ticonderoga will demand transparency when it comes to the Ticonderoga school budget. I also would like to point that we employ teachers and administration to run a school system, not point fingers or make comments about the outcome of a budget vote, far as

the hard working people of Hague are concerned they are as much a part of our district as the people of Ticonderoga are. Why after a massive building project is under way are we asked to accept a spending increase of this nature? All one has to do is look around Moriah and Crown Point, they have made the hard decisions to try to keep the spending at a reasonable level. In conclusion one would be inclined to feel that the administration and the Ticonderoga school board have very little regard for the tax payer of Ticonderoga. William McCaughlin Ticonderoga
Please support Ti school budget To the Times of Ti: I am writing in response to the negative publicity that has been circulating throughout Ticonderoga and Hague toward Ticonderoga Central Schools’ teachers and administration. In tough economic times it is easy to look for the nearest whipping post to take out our frustrations, especially in any area within which we have some measure of control, i.e., voting on the school budget. I understand that nearly all property assessments were raised, town and county budgets increased, and largely because of the building program, the school budget shows an increase. I am not exempt; however, I believe that this anger regarding salaries and benefits of Ticonderoga Central Schools is misplaced. When you assess teacher compensation know that all teachers must have a master ’s degree or higher to teach in Ticonderoga Central Schools, which involves much time and money. Teachers are at school by 7:30 a.m. and even though students leave about 3, most teachers do not. There are meetings, evening calls from parents, papers to correct, grades to enter and plans to be formulated. Lunch is 20-30 minutes and there are no guaranteed 15minute breaks that other workers enjoy. Teachers’ contracts are for 10 months; therefore, weeks in the summer spent preparing for the next year is a gift to the district. For many years salaries at Ticonderoga were very much below the average of other comparable schools and to compensate better benefits were offered. However, during the past few contract settlements, salaries have increased, but benefits have decreased. It has been an uphill struggle for the teaching staff to be paid a decent wage and it is time to give teaching the credibility it deserves. Kindly remember that these dedicated public servants are spending with your children the bulk of their day and thus have a great deal of influence on them. Don’t you think it is important that the school’s administration be able to attract the best and the brightest to teach your children? That ability to attract a competent teaching staff is directly correlated to the “excellence” of the school district as well as the salary and benefit package offered. The business of a school is people — children to be exact and they are our future. Voters of Ticonderoga: Ticonderoga Central Schools is one of our town’s greatest assets. Many cuts have already been made to trim costs and if the school goes to a contingency budget, the results will be far-reaching. Please vote yes on June 15. Lois Gunning Ticonderoga

Letters reveal Moriah history Tough times for teachers By Joan Daby
Moriah
The following are letters written by Ellen D. Witherbee Atwell in 1899 and 1900 to her nephew Tyler Reed Woodbridge of Victor, Colo. She was age 64 at that time. She tells of her family life, traditions, and some facts of history relating to the Witherbee family, handed down by her parents and grandparents, written at Port Henry. These letters were sent to me from Bill Knowlton of Liverpool in 2002. Ellen Atwell was his great aunt. This the fourth installment in a series that continues in the Times of Ti the second week of each month.
Reflections Reflections
“Her skirt was gored and narrow. The waist was about two inches in length under the arm and was low in the neck. I think she said she had six yards and a piece left. She had a Bombazine outside garment, either red or lined with red, and many other pomps and vanities. Nice garments lasted for many years and Mother was well supplied before she was married. They were afterwards made over for the children. I remember her wedding dress. Father always wore a swallow-tailed coat and a stovepipe hat with a stock around his neck. After they were married she went back to Massachusetts for a visit. When she returned they went to their new home in Crown Point and lived in a house which is still standing near the bridge. It was a very rough place and the Vermonters called the inhabitants “Alguinne.s” Everyone there was poor and there was no money; people usually having to barter something for groceries and sometimes having to take their pay in wheat. Ashes were taken at the stores. To such a place they came, with only their hands to begin life with. But they were happy in each other and went cheerfully to work. In connection with the Tannery there was a shoe shop and women were hired to bind the shoes - Mother helped to do that - anyway boarding the men and doing her work. Owing to the scarcity of money, which was necessary to
by Joan Daby, Historian
carry on such a business, the Tannery was not a success, so at Mother ’s request, Father, who had no taste for farming, bought a farm which made a home, and, by hard work of both of them, a comfortable living. His tastes were for mechanics but few opportunities came his way without capital. The village contained a saw mill, grist mill, tavern, blacksmith shop, and a furnace which failed before it was blown in! There were also a store, a schoolhouse, and a number of dwelling houses. Five children were born in the village, and I the sixth soon after we moved to the farm. But although I was born a farmer I had no love for it. They moved before the house was finished. It was on the brow of the hill overlooking Puts Creek. We looked down on Stair Falls which was a part of the farm and was considered a valuable water power, but owing to the introduction of steam, it was never utilized. The home remained unfinished a few years as they decided to move it near the road. Three of us were born before it was moved, a one after. While the house was being moved we went into the new barn for the day, expecting it would be ready for us by night; but half way up the hill it had to stop so we slept in the house that night, partly standing. It made such an impression on us children that Tom (Aunt Ell’s brother) remembers it distinctly, although he was not born till the next Fall!! (Oct. 10, 1843) This was a family joke! After a time the house was finished. It had two large front rooms well lighted, a kitchen, pantry, bedroom and closet back, with nice rooms above.” Joan Daby is town of Moriah historian.
These are tough times for teachers. Positions are being cut, salaries frozen and benefits diminished as school boards struggle with a weak economy and government mandates. Making life even tougher are frustrated taxpayers who feel teachers are over-paid and under-worked. They fail to recognize the financial investment teachers have made, and continue to make, to earn certification. They don’t understand teachers are 10-month employees who do not have summers off. Some mean-spirited people have taken to slandering teachers anonymously on line. They post teacher salaries, which are and should be public information, without any explanation of their duties in an attempt to stir jealousy and anger. As a group, teachers must feel embattled. It would be easy to understand if they responded in kind, but that hasn’t been the case. Our teachers have been, and remain, dedicated to their students in spite of all the slings and arrows directed at them. I’ll admit I’m bias. I’m married to a Schroon Lake teacher and have close friends who teach in every area school. But while that may make me bias, it also gives me a unique perspective. I’ve answered the phone late at night and on weekends when students call asking for help with assignments and personal problems. Our family has changed its schedule to allow for Saturday morning and after-school review sessions. I see papers being graded at night and plans being made on week-
ends. I’ve questioned a personal expense to find that a classroom or student needed something extra. My wife is a great teacher, I’m proud to say. But she’s not the only one. Our schools are filled with dedicated professionals. People should find out what really happens at school. Ticonderoga High School has teachers and students working from 7 a.m. to late at night virtually every day. Whether it’s Nelson Shapiro rehearsing with the jazz band at 7 a.m. or Don Kaupelis conducting math review until 8:30 p.m., learning is a day-long job. It should be pointed out teachers aren’t paid overtime. They don’t benefit from the extra hours — but their students do. Every school in our area has been affected by the recession. Moriah teachers are now in difficult contract talks, Crown Point and Schroon Lake teachers have agreed to pay freezes and Ti teachers have agreed to reduce a scheduled pay raise. All have made benefit concessions. Have you heard any teachers complain? No, they’re just thinking about preparing their students for final exams. Given New York’s financial position, it’s easy to see tough times lie ahead for schools. Difficult decisions, many affecting teachers, will have to made in the years to come. It’s important that those decisions be made by an informed public and not a group of anonymous internet cowards. Our teachers — and students — deserve at least that much.

Hancock House event June 14
Student art show slated TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Historical Society and Ticonderoga Arts will host a Very Special Art Show on Monday, June 14, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Hancock House downstairs in the Ticonderoga Arts Gallery. The show will showcase the Johnny Vic-inspired tiles designed by fourth grade art students at Ticonderoga Elementary School. Author and Ticonderoga alumnus Ann Rich Duncan visited the fourth grade students in March to talk about her Johnny Vic series of adventure books. With his magical metal detector, Johnny Vic travels back through time
to meet the last person who touched the object he scans. In doing so, he meets important people of history and witnesses historical events. As a result of reading the books, the fourth grade students, led by art teacher Kerry Fingland, created art works inspired by the Johnny Vic stories. These art works have been professionally transferred to 5x7 inch tiles. The tiles will be the highlight of the art show along with the fourth grade artists who will be ready to tell their stories. Artists from Ticonderoga Arts will greet the young artists and engage
them in conversation, sharing their insight. Duncan will be on hand to offer her Johnny Vic series of books for sale at a book signing table. Bill Dolback, president of the Ticonderoga Historical Society, will lead a private tour of the Hancock House. An art show reception with parents, teachers, friends and the community is planned. For additional information, contact the Ticonderoga Historical Society at tihistory@verizon.net or 585-7868.

TICONDEROGA — Lake George Association stewards are once again on duty at boat launches around Lake George for the summer, inspecting boats and educating boaters on how to prevent the spread of invasive species. Coordinated by the LGA, the program seeks to contain the spread of three species already present in Lake George: eurasian watermilfoil, zebra mussels and curly-leaf pondweed as well as a possible fourth — brittle naiad — which was found and removed from Dunham’s Bay last summer. The program also helps prevent new invasive species

from being introduced, such as spiny waterflea and water chestnut, which are present in nearby water bodies. Stewards Lee Peters, Monika LaPlante, Mark Altwerger and Brendan Carberry were trained in inspection, identification and data collection by the LGA and at the Adirondack Watershed Institute at Paul Smiths College, in cooperation with the Adirondack Park Invasive Plant Program and the Lake Champlain Basin Program. LGA stewards will be located at Norowal Marina and other launches in the south end, and Mossy Point, Hague town launch and Rogers Rock in the north end on weekends throughout the summer. In addition to inspecting the boats for aquatic invasive species, the stewards will also remind boaters of the DEC firewood regulation, new in 2009, which limits the transport of untreated wood to 50 miles, in an effort to protect forests from insect invaders, such as the Emerald Ash Borer and Asian Longhorned Beetle, which have had a devastating impact on tree populations in the Great Lakes and the Northeast regions. Emergency funding for the program this year was provided by the town of Hague, the town of Bolton Local Development Corporation and the Lake George Park Commission. “In past years, the LGA has received funds from New York State through the Lake George Watershed Coalition to run this essential prevention model program, which is respected across New York and New England," said Walt Lender of Ticonderoga, LGA executive director. “We are grateful to secure funding from other sources this year, including grant funding provided by the Helen V. Froelich Foundation. Without preventative measures like this, Lake George could suffer the kind of devastating impact, both ecologically and economically, that we've seen in other lakes.” Last summer, the stewards inspected 3,886 boats and collected 162 samples, with 75 of those being invasive species. The invasive samples included 48 specimens of eurasian watermilfoil, 13 of curly-leaf pondweed, seven of zebra mussels, and seven of water chestnut.

Heritage Commons CNA cited for efforts TICONDEROGA — Liz LaPointe has been recognized for her work as a certified nursing assistant at Heritage Commons Residential Healthcare in Ticonderoga. She will represent the Ti facility at the Association of Nursing Service Administrators banquet in Albany,
where nursing homes can bring their best CNAs for an evening of dining and fun. LaPointe has also been nominated to receive the 2010 Employee of Distinction award sponsored by New York Association of Homes & Services for the Aging.
LaPointe has been working for the Ti facility for over 30 years. “She exemplifies to all of us what it means to be a good employee,” said Mary Ellen Ellithorpe, director of nursing. “She is pleasant, motivated, reliable, dedicated, and good at what she does. She brings smiles
to our residents and helps them through their difficult times with respect and dignity. We are lucky to have Liz on our team.” People interested in the CNA program can call Brenda Dushane, assistant director of nurses at Heritage Commons, at 585-3805.

Ticonderoga street art project becoming visible TICONDEROGA — Local residents and visitors are invited to downtown Ticonderoga to view a new outdoor art project now under way through September. To date, the project has 25 paid sponsors and a dozen completed soldiers have already made their debut in front of several buildings along Montcalm Street. The remainder are expected to appear in the very near future. The Montcalm Street Partnership will still accept sponsor entries up to June 15 provided more artists volunteers may be found. “The response to this new project has been wonderful, and our community is in for a real treat,” said Sue Rathbun, chairman of the Montcalm Street Partnership. “Some of the entries resemble authentic soldiers, some resemble other gentlemen of distinction, some are whimsical, and all are very clever.” Rathbun proposed the project idea to the partnership’s promotion committee after seeing the many figures George DeMers of Adirondack Furniture by George kept placing on the street in front of his Montcalm Street business. DeMers agreed to make the templates for the project, and the TMSP committee sought the sponsors and artists. “All deserve a huge thanks in making this project possible,” Rathbun said. “Talented artists include students from the four Ticonderoga schools plus many other area residents who have generously volunteered their time.

10 - TIMES OF TI • TICONDEROGA
SATURDAY June 12, 2010
Senior aids troops TICONDEROGA — Rachel Rafferty, a senior at Ticonderoga High School, recently spent time outside of a local store working on her senior project. She studied America’s current involvement in Afghanistan and decided to fundraise and collect goods to send to local servicemen and women who are stationed in Afghanistan. As part of her awareness and donation campaign, Rafferty also offered ReMIND.org dog tags and information about the Bob Woodruff Foundation that helps returning veterans in their transition back to their families and life at home to her fellow students at school and to shoppers who stopped by her display. Woodruff and his wife Lee are summer residents in Silver Bay. Rafferty’s efforts yielded 24 military boxes which she has mailed to five different units who have local service personnel in their ranks, including Tom Bush, John Burke and Robert Underwood who are serving in the Army and Chris Blasdell and James Cavanaugh who are Marines, all stationed in Afghanistan. Rafferty raised over $300 to use toward purchases and mailing costs. She is also sending a donation of $250 to the Woodruff Foundation. Senior projects are multi-disciplinary projects that have been required of all of Ticonderoga’s seniors since 1990. Kim Powers and Bridget McCarthy currently run the program for THS.
Ashley Bartlett helps Rachel Rafferty with her senior project. Rafferty studied America’s current involvement in Afghanistan and decided to fundraise and collect goods to send to local servicemen and women who are stationed in Afghanistan.

SATURDAY June 12, 2010
Ti From page 1 noon to 8 p.m. at the Hague Community Center and at Ticonderoga High School. If the budget is again rejected, law requires the district to go directly to a contingency budget, a level set by the state that limits spending. The proposal is virtually a contingency budget and calls for a 4.77 percent increase in the tax levy. Spending in the revised budget is down 0.2 percent from current levels. The increase in the revised plan is attributed to the on-going $23.8 million building and renovation project approved by voters in 2007. “The district is very concerned about the impact a contingency budget would have on the community,” Superintendent John McDonald said. “Groups would have to pay to use school facilities under a contingency budget — Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, dance recitals, the Fourth of July Committee and many others use school facilities. A lot of community groups depend on the use of school facilities for the success of their program. “We also want to respect the results of the vote,” he added. “People want less spending.” A proposed $18.3 million spending plan was defeated by a 521-421 count May 18. The revised budget plan totals $18,105,991, down $279,081 from the initial proposal. The amount to be raised by taxes in the revised budget is $9,581,358, down from $9,740,039 in the rejected spending plan.
Superintendent John McDonald McDonald noted the help of Ti teachers in cutting the spending plan. In the original proposal teachers agreed to switch health insurance programs, which will save the district $150,000 a year. In the revised budget teachers also agreed to give up 0.55 percent of a scheduled pay increase that will save the district $31,081 and agreed to $25,000 in cuts to supplies, which they will cover through out-of-pocket expense. Teachers also agreed to freeze coaching and adviser pay, saving $19,000. The revised plan calls for the purchase of two 32-passenger buses instead of two 68-passenger buses, a savings of $100,000; the elimination of pre-kindergarten transportation, a savings of $50,000; the elimination of the Young Scholars program, saving $25,000; cutting field trips in half,
saving $15,000; cutting afterschool detention in half, saving $8,000; and cutting summer Building Leadership Team work, saving $6,000. “We had a large list of cuts we considered,” McDonald said. “We went through the budget line by line. We met with both associations (instructional and non-instructional) and prioritized in an effort to get as close to contingency as possible.” The revised spending plan is $26,000 above the state-mandated contingency budget. It’s been a difficult budget year, McDonald said. The district is scheduled to receive a $435,000 cut in state aid in 2010-11 and debt service on the building project increased by $290,418. That means the district faced a $725,418 deficit without addressing any other increased costs. In the original budget proposal the Ti school board cut 7.5 positions — 5 percent of its teaching staff, consolidated bus routes, eliminated out-of-district conferences, cut department chairmanships, slashed the music enrichment program and cut the high school student mentoring program. Those cuts remains in the revised version. The staff cuts — two elementary teachers, two middle school teachers, a high school teacher, an administrator, a bus driver and a teacher aide — will save the district $432,000. The other cuts total $149,249.

Flag Day
jamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and George Washington revolted against Great Britain, then President Lincoln freed the slaves which ensued freedom to all Americans. “People want their freedom because, as modern day Americans, we know no other way. Without freedom we wouldn’t be able to show who we really are. People want to be able to express their emotions, briefs, freedom of press and religious views openly without any fears of being persecuted. “These rights did not come easily. Americans fought and died for these rights starting with the Revolutionary War, through the present day conflict in the Middle East. Both my grandfathers fought, one in World War II and the other in Korea. They made these sacrifices so that my family and I can enjoy the American Dream of today. Although I never met either of them, I am very proud of their service. “Equality, a right of Americans, was an important issue to the late President Kennedy. He believed that regardless of race, creed or color all Americans should be treated equally. “In conclusion, we should all understand that the American Dream has a price. The price for that, for over 200 years our soldiers fought and died to keep our freedom. Every time I say the Pledge of Allegiance I remember all the sacrifices and I say, thank you.” In 1907 the Order of Elks declared June 14 as Flag Day. In 1911 the Grand Lodge directed all local lodges to observe Flag Day. In 1949, President Harry Truman, a member of the Elks, designated June 14 as Flag Day by signing an act of Congress.
From page 1 said Lori Fox, St. Mary’s social studies teacher. “The girls thought very hard about what the American Dream is and what it means to them and their future. Everyone at St. Mary’s School is proud of their achievements.” O’Neill and Spaulding will read their winning essays at the Flag Day event. Spaulding’s essay reads: “What is the American Dream? We have many dreams, but one stands out above the rest. It is the dream that created our country, a dream we will fight to the death for, if we must. It is the dream of freedom. “Let’s go back, back to the year 1620 when the Pilgrims landed in Massachusetts. They sailed for months to escape religious persecution in England. Around 140 years later, the descendants of those very settlers fought for their own idea of freedom. They dreamt of the freedom of being their own country, creating their own rules and governing themselves. Today we are still reminded of their hard work, they created homes and cultivated the land. Their blood was shed for the dreams they believed in. We are also reminded of their sorrow in the hardships they endured to create a better future for their families. “In conclusion, the American Dream is freedom. There is a lot of work needed to achieve any dream.” O’Neill’s essay reads: “The American dream is freedom and equality. We, as people, have this because of past Americans. Great people such as Ben-

Crown Point may form chamber CROWN POINT — The construction of a new Lake Champlain Bridge is expected to bring hundreds of workers to Crown Point, making it an economic opportunity for local merchants. To prepare, the community may form its own chamber of commerce. “Crown Point needs its own identity,” said Bethany Kosmider, town supervisor. “We are in the eyes of the nation with our bridge project and we need to become opportunists. Crown Point will be on the map.”

A group of Crown Point residents met June 9 to discuss the formation of a local chamber. It agreed to meet again June 23 at 3 p.m. at the town hall. “It’s just a proposal; we’re exploring the idea,” said Nancy Ockrin, who is chair of the exploratory committee. Currently Crown Point businesses can join the Ticonderoga Area Chamber Bethany Kosmider of Commerce. The Ti chamber has 160 members, 15 from Crown Point. Ockrin, who operates the Stoney Lonesome Bed & Breakfast in Crown Point, said the initial meeting generated a lot • FRESH FISH • FRESH FISH • FRESH FISH •
Merchants hope to capitalize on new bridge construction
of ideas. “I think the consensus of that meeting was that we need a web presence and not be in the shadow of the Ti chamber,” Ockrin said. “We don’t have the numbers Ti has, but maybe we can form a low-key chamber that will allow us non-profit status to pursue some of these ideas. “I’m a member of the Ti chamber and think they do a fabulous job. This is just another angle for us to pursue,” Ockrin said. The town is not formally involved in the formation of a chamber, Kosmider said, but elected officials plan to support local businesses any way possible, Kosmider said. “People are eager to get going,” Kosmider said. “It looks like it’s probably going to happen.” Barb Brassard, executive director of the Ti chamber, said her group will assist Crown Point merchants in any way possible. “The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce applauds Crown Point businesses for recognizing the value of group promotion and taking the initiative to organize,” she said. “As an area chamber of commerce serving an extended region including Crown Point, Hague, Putnam and surrounding areas, we have an excellent relationship working with other chambers and community partners,” Brassard added. “There is strength in numbers when we work regionally and the Ticonderoga Area Chamber has an 85 year track record.” Crown Point had its own chamber of commerce in 1956 and 1957. A chamber of commerce is a local organization of businesses whose goal is to further the interests of member businesses and their communities.

Schroon From page 1 proposed $7.4 million budget in balloting May 18 by a 242203 margin. The school board has revised that original proposal, trimming $160,802. The new proposal calls for a budget of $7,286,413. That’s a 0.86 percent decease from the current budget of $7,349,590. The revised proposed tax levy totals $5,731,913. That’s a 2.63 percent increase from the present levy of $5,585,090. The spending plan rejected by voters in May called for a 5.5 percent tax increase. To limit spending in the original 2010-11 budget proposal, Schroon Lake teachers agreed to a one-year contract calling for no pay increase. Administrators also agreed to a pay freeze. The proposed budget also cut $34,721 from custodian services, eliminated the $14,000 summer school program, saved $5,000 by merging bus runs, cut $3,000 from instructional development and saved $3,000 by limiting the annual school trip to New York City to every-other year. All those cuts remain in the revised budget, plus a $10,000 cut in supplies, the elimination of a $22,000 minivan purchase, a savings of $11,850 by cutting junior varsity basketball, a savings of $6,400 by eliminating late bus runs, a savings of $2,250 by eliminating drug education services and a savings of $425 in school board supplies. Since the original budget was proposed, the board has also learned its debt service on the district building project will be $63,177 less than anticipated. Voters also rejected a proposition to purchase a bus, 245179, in May. That proposition, to buy a bus at a cost not to exceed $95,000, will appear again on the June 15 ballot. If the budget is rejected, state law requires the district to adopt a contingency budget. The revised budget plan is already at contingency levels, but the law would restrict equipment purchases and building use by non-school groups.

Mineville
Polling place to stay open By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com MINEVILLE — Plans to close a polling station in Mineville have been scrapped. Supervisor Tom Scozzafava told the Moriah town board May 11 the Essex County Board of Elections no longer has plans to shut down polling places in Mineville, AuSable Forks, Wadhams and Keene. Scozzafava said he and other supervisors argued against the closures in the interest of making voting accessible to all residents. “To the credit of the board of elections,” he said, “they listened to us.” In the town of Moriah the board of elections plan was to merge polling places in Mineville and Moriah. Those are the town’s largest voting districts, Scozzafava said. “Moriah has 1,100 registered voters and Mineville-Witherbee about 800,” the supervisor said. “Potentially there would have been 2,000 people trying to vote in Moriah. I don’t think it would have worked. It wasn’t feasible.” The polls were being closed to save money and avoid buying additional electronic voting machines. Scozzafava said money is a non-issue since the electronic voting machines are being purchased with grant money. The changes would have taken effect with the September primary election.

New equipment improves Moriah access TV PORT HENRY — Moriah’s public access television channel has made major improvements thanks to new equipment. In March the town approved a 30-day trial of digital technology. After getting a positive report on the experiment, the board approved the $6,350 equipment purchase recently. The new technology has been a great benefit to the channel, which is operated by Moriah Central School, but has come with frustrations, explained Emmett Hoops, school
technology coordinator. “The equipment itself is excellent,” he said. “I have a much lower opinion of their technical support. They’re not used to dealing with someone from the stone age. Our point of reference was far away from their expertise.” Kim Harvish, who oversees Channel 17 for Moriah Central School, said the new equipment is good — but is a big change. “I’ve been frustrated,” she said. “We’ve gone from VHS tapes to a totally different animal.” Hoops and Harvish agreed, though, the new equipment is a major improvement for

The new system allows for a schedule of programming, better quality of picture and sound, immediate access from a remote location in the event of a school or town emergency and an improved and updated message board. The channel is also now in sync with the school website, Hoops said. The major problem is converting VHS tape to a digital format, Harvish said. The school is investigating the purchase of a digital camera that would eliminate that problem, she said.

Section champions crowned Moriah wins Class D title; Schroon upset
Ticonderoga, Crown Point win in softball
Ryan Mascarenas fired a three-hitter to lead Moriah past Westport-Keene, 7-3, in the Section VII Class D baseball tournament championship game June 4. The win put the Vikings into the state tournament against Section X champion Chateaugay June 7. Working on three days rest, Mascarenas held Westport-Keene in check. He fanned two, walked two and was assisted by a solid defense. Eric Baker had two hits to key the Moriah offense. After taking a 1-0 lad in the opening inning, the Vikings rallied for three runs in the second. Baker, Jud Zelinski and Justin Cutting had hits in the uprising as Moriah raced to a 4-0 advantage. Moriah iced the game with two more runs in the fifth on RBI hits by Baker and Jimmy Curran for a 7-1 lead.
Ticonderoga claimed its fourth consecutive Section VII Class C softball title with a 6-1 win against Northern Adirondack June 2. The victory moves Ticonderoga into the state tournament. Haley Best paced the Sentinels, throwing a two-hitter. Best looked like an unlikely star in the opening inning as NAC grabbed a 1-0 lead on a pair of base knocks. She settled down, though, and didn’t allow another hit in the game as she shut out the Cougars over the final six innings. Ashley St. Andrews led the Ti offense. She had a double, two triples and three runs batted in. Ticonderoga tied the game in the first inning on a run-scoring double by St. Andrews. A St. Andrews triple gave Ti a 2-1 lead in the second. The Sentinels rallied for three scores in the fourth inning on an error and hits by Taylor Ward, Taylor Denno and St. Andrews. Chelsea Budwick gave Ti its final run in the sixth inning by stealing home.
Moriah advances Moriah reached the Section VII Class D baseball tournament championship game with a stunning comeback. Trailing 7-1 in their final at bat, the Vikings rallied to beat Chazy, 8-7, June 1. Ryan Mascarenas and Tim Breeyear walked to start the winning rally. Larry Wintle reached on an infield hit to load the bases for Moriah. Following a fielder ’s choice, Jud Zelinski walked to force in a run. Justin Cutting followed with a runscoring single to make it 7-3 and Chazy changed pitchers. Ron Schofield greeted the new hurler with a RBI single making it 7-4, but Moriah’s next hitter fanned. Down to their final out, the Vikings got a two-run single from Jimmy Curran to make it 7-6. Mascarenas followed with an infield hit to score the tying run. Moriah won the game in its next at bat as Chazy pitcher Ricky Osier was called for a balk, sending Curran home with the gamewinner. Eric Baker, working in relief, was the winning pitcher.
Mike Mascarenas pitched Moriah to the Section VII Class D baseball championship. Photo by Matt Bosley ment June 1. Kevin Russell was the star for Westport-Keene. He had four hits, driving home two runs, and hurled a two-hitter, fanning 12. Top-seed Schroon Lake jumped to a 2-0 lead. Anthony Vanderwalker singled in the second inning. He stole second and third and scored on an infield out to give the Wildcats a 1-0 edge. Lance Paradis walked in the third inning for Schroon
and advanced to third on a hit by Jeffrey Armstrong. Paradis scored on a double steal to give the ‘Cats a 2-0 advantage. Schroon Lake didn’t get another hit, though, as Russell dominated the remainder of the contest. Westport-Keene scratched out a run in the fourth and rallied for three scores in the fifth to secure the win. Russell’s two-run triple was the key blow.
Crown Point wins title Crown Point raced to a big lead and went on to beat Lake Placid, 6-3, in the Section VII Class D softball tournament championship game. It’s the fifth straight section title for the Panthers and their seventh in the last eight years. The Panthers earned a berth in the state tournament with the win. Lindsay Brace, working 5 1/3 innings in relief, was the winning pitcher. She fanned 11 batters. Lauren Brace, Jessica Potter and Alex Macey each had two hits for the champions. Crown Point struck for three runs in the first inning on a run-scoring single by Macey and a two-run double by Lauren Brace. After Placid managed a run in the second inning, the Panthers made it 6-1 in the bottom half of the frame. Chelsea Dushane knocked in two runs with a hit and eventually scored on a wild pitch.

here is a famous quote attributed to an old Montana flyfishing guide which goes something like: “Trout don’t live in no ugly places.” While trout waters almost always seem to possess a high degree of water clarity, scenic beauty and cool temperatures, the opposite holds true for bass. Bass live and thrive in some of the ugliest waters known to man. When I think of bass waters, descriptive terms such as dark, murky, warm, weedy and nasty come to mind. After all, bass are a warm water species renowned for seeking structure. Structure is an accepted euphemism for “lots of crap in the water to get snagged on.” It’s bass crap, the old pilings, thick weeds, downed trees, roots and stumps, rocky shoals, cribbing or anything that has sunk to the bottom of a lake. Find it and you’ll likely find bass. Bass remain the most popular game fish in the country, pursued by the common man. They are also the most widely distributed fish species in the United States, which now shares the World Record for bass with Japan, of all places. Bass go hand in hand with Skoal, Budweiser and NASCAR. In fact, I’ve been told that bass fishermen are really just off-season snowmobilers that couldn’t get tickets to NASCAR. We’re not talking about speckled beauties or iridescent rainbows that fall prey to tiny flies cast on delicate leaders and fine tippets. We’re talking about hogs, big ol' bucket-mouthed, tackle bustin’ monsters with a bad attitude, dude! Bass are the type of fish that require a baitcasting reel
spooled with Razor Wire, attached to a rod so stiff it could be used for a pry bar in a pinch. Bass can be fished from shore with a simple minnow and a bobber or out of a sparkling bass boat that goes 75 mph and is decked out with a collection of angling gizmos that cost more than my house. In the Adirondacks, bass are possibly the most overlooked of all our angling resources. Bass inhabit more waters than trout, hey are easy to catch, great to fight and make a fine meal. They are simply a fun and entertaining species. Although bass season doesn’t officially open until the third Saturday in June, in New York, the species can now be taken year ‘round, on a catch and release basis. And while there have been claims that taking bass off their spawn beds harms the population, recent research proves otherwise. A University of Florida (UF) study, published in Transactions of the American Fisheries Society magazine, indicates otherwise. “We found that in most cases, spawning area closures won’t improve bass populations,” explained co-author Mike Allen, a fisheries professor with UF’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. “If you lose some nests,
Whether practicing catch and release or catch and eat, anglers should be aware of the most common mistakes of bass fishing. Possibly the most common error is an ill prepared fishing outfit. Anglers should check rod guides for nicks and abrasions, oil the reel and set the drag properly as bass are one of the most unforgiving of all freshwater game fish and consistently challenge both the angler ’s skill and the quality of their equipment. Always start the new season by respooling with fresh line, and check the line’s expiration date before purchasing it. Another common error is a lack of patience, casting and retrieving too fast. Remember, occasionally bass must to be coaxed into taking your bait, give them time. Give the lure or bait action. Bass are a major predator and must be induced to attack. If you aren’t getting strikes, change the retrieve, faster, slower, twitchy or steady, until you find out how they want it. Stay in the game! Don’t let a lull in the action break your concentration. Fish hard from the beginning to the end, and don’t take a break while you still have a rod in your hand. Fish like you mean it or go home! Set the hook slow, but set it hard! Most anglers don’t realize that bass do not strike a lure fished below the surface in the same manner they take a lure on the surface. Below the surface, bass will approach a lure or worm and inhale it. They accomplish this by flaring their gills and suck in the offering along with nearly two gallons of water. Bass don’t strike sub-surface; they inhale. Anglers using rubber soft baits should recognize this behavior and lower their rod tip on the first indication of a take. A brief pause before setting the hook will almost always result in a hook-up, while an instant set usually takes the bait out of their mouth.
