Moriah town board coming ‘home’ PORT HENRY — After

nearly

two decades on the road, Moriah’s town board meetings will return home in 2012.

The meetings will be held at the newly expanded and renovated court building, adjacent to the town hall at Park Place in Port Henry.

“We haven’t held regular board meetings on town property in a long time,” Supervisor Tom Scozzafava

said. “It’s going to be nice to be back.”

With Scozzafava and Moriah trustees placing an emphasis on open government and public participation, attendance at town board meetings in the late 1980s and 1990s grew to the point meetings could no longer be held in the supervisor ’s chambers.

Ticonderoga • Times of Ti - 3

Officials seek return of surveys Information key to grant funding

the project. That’s good news, but local officials are hoping for a better deal with the help of residents.

In 2009 the state Department of Health ordered Ti to replace or cover the Gooseneck reservoir, which was created in 1931. The town developed a plan to replace the reservoir with tanks, but a recent inspection discovered problems with the Gooseneck dam and with transmission lines, Taylor explained.

Gooseneck was designed to serve the entire town, but over time demand exceeded Gooseneck’s capacity. In 1965 a Lake George water supply was developed for emergency use.

Eventually Lake George water became necessary to meet daily demand.

During the most recent inspection the state also found problems at the Baldwin Road filtration plant that handles Lake George water.

At the urging of state officials, Ticonderoga then began considering an upgrade of the entire water system, utilizing groundwater sources. Preliminary engineering studies have identified five possible aquifers in Ticonderoga that could be water sources, Taylor noted.

At its October meeting the town board authorized bonding up to $2.7 million to search for groundwater. It’s hoped $2 million of that will come as a state grant.

Facing a state order to have a new water plan in place by Dec. 31, the town plans to begin test well drilling this fall.

Once test wells are complete, final plans will be designed to take advantage of the best water source.

Assuming water is found, the project will begin in the spring and be completed in July 2015.

Information on the project is available on the town website at townofticonderoga.com

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga officials are pleading with residents to return surveys mailed to them two weeks ago.

The confidential income surveys were sent to water customers in October. The information is needed to seek grant money for a $13.8 million water project.

“The response thus far has been fair to good, but a long way from the 65 percent response we need,” said Sue Huestis, Ti water and sewer clerk.

The surveys are crucial if Ticonderoga is to qualify for grant funding, trustee Wayne Taylor said.

“We’re pleading with people to please participate,” Taylor said. “This is very important.”

“If we don’t get responses by mail, representatives of the town will be knocking on doors,” Huestis said. “We have to get this information.”

Taylor said Ticonderoga is likely to get at least a $2 million grant to start the project, if the surveys are completed.

Facing a state mandate, the town of Ticonderoga is about to begin a comprehensive water system upgrade.

Town officials hope to replace the existing water system, which draws water from Lake George and Gooseneck Pond, with a series of wells.

The proposed groundwater project is estimated to cost up to $13.8 million.

That’s actually a bargain. The state Department of Health has ordered Ticonderoga to either replace Gooseneck or cover it. Covering the reservoir carries an estimated cost of $31 million. The state has also ordered repairs to the Lake George water system that could cost another $12-24 million.

Ticonderoga has been declared a hardship case by the state, which makes it eligible for a no-interest loan to cover

ELECT BRENT VOSBURG Essex County Clerk I am running for the position of Essex County Clerk in the November 8, 2011 election. I am asking for your support and for your vote. For the last twenty years, we have not had a choice in who is to be our County Clerk for the next four years. The United States is a democracy, which means the voters should have a choice when they go to elect a public official. Now there is a choice. My points are listed below: I will be accessible to the public.

I will bring back integrity, accountability, honesty and accept responsibility.

I will treat all employees, taxpayers and citizens with respect.

I will be willing to assist and conduct research for people without them having to make an appointment.

I will cut needless expenditures by paying closer attention to the budget and expenses as well as eliminate overstaffing through attrition and with proper cross-training.

I will make a point to be visible in the community, and will visit each town on a regular basis as time allows.

I will perform the duties of the Essex County Clerk’s office that are required only.

I will not make promises I cannot keep, nor set expectations so high they become unreachable.

Paid for by the Committee to elect Brent Vosburg

27890

I worked in the clerk’s office for four years as the Executive Deputy County Clerk and am very familiar with how it is supposed to function. With over twenty years in the banking industry, I understand the importance of controlling costs as well. I believe I can do a better job! Thank you.

Times of Ti Editorial

Viewpoint

Opportunity is knocking Exercise your right to vote our future depends on it I

W

e’ve all heard the mantra about how we should exercise our duty to vote.

It’s repeated often, particularly as fall descends and election signs start cropping up alongside area roadways.

Although this year ’s election focuses on candidates for county or community posts rather than high-profile state or national races, local government is where the citizenry can exert the greatest influence — and change in government most often occurs from the ground up.

But such clout exists only in the hands of those that turn out and cast their ballots.

County and town supervisors craft budgets, devise laws, and craft policy that sets the course of our government as well as the day-to-day delivery of public services — and determines the very nature of our communities in the future.

And this year, participation in this ultimate privilege of democracy is more important than ever.

Considering the pressing issues that face our area towns and counties, it is indeed vitally important for all eligible citizens to cast their vote and help set the course of our local governments.

Each municipality in the Adirondacks is struggling with budgetary problems — deciding how to balance soaring operational expenses despite slashed state aid. They are grappling with new expensive mandates and soaring employee health care and retirement costs in a time that the public is struggling financially.

In addition, the core areas of the Adirondacks have been losing population at an alarming rate — primari-

ly due to lack of private-sector job opportunities at salaries that can even approach metropolitan areas.

Our area families have become more and more dependent on income from public-sector jobs — which in turn hike local taxes, shackling economic growth.

And while the world has moved fast into an era when high-speed broadband interconnectivity is vital for prosperity, areas of the Adirondack region now have no such access.

Our communities and counties throughout the region need the most savvy, informed leaders at the helm — to collaborate on crafting sound public policy, influence state and federal officials to make needed changes, and make hard decisions on the quality and level of services government will be providing.

Hopefully you’ve studied the issues and evaluated the candidates — examining campaign flyers, attending the various Meet the Candidates events, and scrutinizing the politicians’ qualifications and abilities.

The more research, the better.

Because throughout the Adirondacks, we need leaders who cannot only devise clever sound bites or utter political jargon, but can help seek out new, innovative solutions to our pressing issues.

Cast a vote this Tuesday — an informed vote.

Our future depends on it.

Setting the record straight

To the Times of Ti:

Kudos to outdoor writer Joe Hackett for his recent column in the Times of Ti, “The hunt is on.” He covered every spectrum of the sport we call deer hunting and hit upon the two most important parts, which most outdoor writers neglect, tradition and sharing of knowledge and skills from the older hunters to the new ones starting.

The article teaches respect, not only for the deer, the outdoors, but for those who have gone before us and handed down the ways. I have known Joe as a fellow guide and outdoor writer for over 30 years. In my opinion, this is one of his finest articles. Keep up the good work, Joe. Bob Bearor Schroon Lake

Pantry volunteers appreciative To the Times of Ti: The volunteers of the Ticonderoga Food Pantry wishes to send a message of appreciation to those you supported our recent pancake supper.

A special thanks to the Ti Elks, Ray and his kitchen crew did an outstanding job for us, and are sincerely appreciated.

Word has just been received from CP Rail...the Holiday Train will arrive in Ticonderoga on Nov. 28 at 3:50.

We thank the communities of Ticonderoga and Putnam for their continued support which makes our work possible.

As a reminder, the pantry is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 11 a.m. to noon except holidays.

Trick or treat?

To the Times of Ti:

Election time is just a few weeks away, and we have an obligation to become informed before we enter the voting booth if we want to make wise choices. There are many ways to do that.

One is to ask questions of the right people, people with knowledge you can trust. Another is to go to meetings and become involved in what your town is doing, a third is simply to read available material whether it is past minutes from the board or something available on-line like comptroller ’s report and assessments.

One place not to get information is from signs painted on plywood.

Bethany (Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider) has made mistakes which is expected from a first term in office with no prior experience or help; the errors and oversights of those who have held offices for over 20 years is another thing.

Whether deceitful or just plain sloppy bookkeeping, mistakes cost all of us more money.

Crown Point is a town in turmoil, and we have an opportunity in November to return it to stability by re-electing those who have worked so hard to find the root cause of problems and make this a town we can be proud of.

The change to a single assessor has taken our focus off what is important. And even with that, who is to say if it was handled differently that the results would not have been the same?

I strongly suggest you go to osc.state.ny.us/localgov/audits/towns/2011/crownpoint.pdf and read the state comptroller ’s report. It references the (town) board as well as our town clerk. If it is too long to read, at least read the second half. If you don’t have a computer ask your neighbor to print it off for you.

Become informed, then decide who you want to hold the office.

Still unsure? Pray about it, God may just be waiting to hear from you!

A recent letter (Robert Patnode, Don and Kathy Barber, Sharon and John Hieber, Melissa and Chuck Langlais and Jerry Morse) from Crown Point listed problems the current supervisor inherited from her predecessor.

As predecessor I know better what was left behind than a few individuals who drank the Kool-Aid served by the current administration.

What she inherited was a new $3.3 million district 1 water system ($1.9 million grant and $1.4 million 20 year no interest loan). The entire district had new meters installed with outside readers. In 2009 we were on the verge of getting another grant to finish the system on Main Street. I was one (the unpaid one) of the two licensed operators required for the system.

As for lack of help during her transition _ if you can’t do the job don’t run for the office. After 14 years I was ready for a change and didn’t try too hard for re-election. I did hope a decent person would succeed me — can’t have everything.

To clear up some of the untruths of the last election — Yes I did graduate from Clarkson University Class of 1970. Yes I did work as a nuclear power design/construction engineer.

No I never drove a truck.

Other things left behind— a $250,000+ fund balance. A money-making camp site with power and water, new bathrooms, new electrical service and a DEC permit to operate.

A money-making marina with a boat launch, new electrical system, $75,000 of new docks and plans for a new seawall with a $250,000 grant pending.

These improvements and many others were completed with grant moneys and nearly always by town employees including myself. (Grants totaled over $4 million.)

And, by the way, I never tried to take away the right of the people to vote.

To the Times of Ti: There’s a funny line from “Funny Girl,” where Barbara Streisand says, in her best Brooklynese, “. . . the dope’s been duped.” Gov. Cuomo’s endorsement of Ms. (Crown Point Supervisor Bethany) Kosmider brought this line to mind.

When you endorse someone, you’re saying: I approve, think highly of, favor, stand by or value this person. If your recommendation is well placed, everyone wins, but if not, there are consequences to all. To the person receiving such accolades, if she fails to live up to them because she is less than competent in her ability, I say it’s unfair to her because it places her in an untenable position, being in over her head, causing her much stress and humiliation.

And, is it fair to her constituents, who rely upon her judgments; decisions that affect our wallets and lifestyles? Someone wrote that there’s “standing room only” at her meetings, as though it were a good thing. Yes, there’s standing room only, but not because we’re experiencing great governance at work, but rather because everyone is curious to see Ms. Kosmider’s next train wreck, and, sadly, they’re never disappointed.

As for the governor, I recommend that he not rubber stamp everything that crosses his desk. I don’t want to see my governor look foolish, but when he endorses someone who doesn’t live up to even minimum expectations, it reflects poorly on him.

Endorsements should not be handed out like treats on Halloween; unless, governor, you’re playing a trick on the voters.

Mary Capek Crown Point

Supports justice candidate To the Times of Ti: On Nov. 8 Crown Point voters will be asked to elect a town justice. This position is one that should not be taken lightly as the outcome could influence every citizen of Crown Point.

The town deserves someone who will dispense justice in a fair manner regardless of standing in the community. Someone who understands that standards are to be met and every case should stand or fall on its own merits.

Town resident Marge Hurlburt meets this criteria and has the education to work with families who may need the court’s services. Being a lifelong resident of Essex County Marge has worked with families and children’s programs and knows the needs of the community. As a long-time resident Marge is prepared to carry out the duties entrusted to her!

On Nov. 8 I urge Crown Point residents to elect Marge Hurlburt to the office of town justice.

Class thankful To the Times of Ti: The Moriah Central School Class of 2012 would like to thank Kellie Valentine (manager of Stewart’s in Port Henry), Sue Zelinski and Rachel Cutting for all of their support during our football season at Moriah Central School. We so appreciate all that you did.

‘Coexistence or no existence’ To the Times of Ti: There are a multitude of topics in our constantly evolving culture which have become extremely controversial. Everyone, we will assume for the moment, starts out with the best of intentions. They have unshakable faith in what they belief in their hearts to be true.

If you start talking with someone who does not share your particular perspective on a personally vital issue you might not be able to politely drop the topic and move on to something else less problematic. So, you persist on pushing forward with your own personal, deeply held perspectives. Emotions start to run wild and very quickly these intense feelings escalate into anger and hate. With blood vessels bulging in your face, you leave this verbal altercation behind, making mental notes of the seditious thoughts that have come to define your new enemy.

You go back to those who hold your ideology in common and you express the horrors of your most recent encounter. You reaffirm with one another that these thoughts are indeed abhorrent and that your way is the only way. All the members of your group go out and they do exactly the same thing that you have done.

We are now however, living in a time when years have been whittled down to nanoseconds and distance is meaningless. In a far shorter time than might have been expected two warring factions are face to face on the battle field and the young soldiers you have recruited think that they are on their Xboxes, but they are not are they? Now they must fight to the death in order to prove that you are right. Who is the winner here, can anyone see a winner out on the field?

That brings us now to an alternate option. Rewind a bit to the point where you started to feel your emotions run wild.

Pause for a moment and count to three or perhaps to 10 if you have gotten yourself really worked up. While you are counting do a little multi-tasking and think! When, since the dawn of civilization, has anger and hate ever led to anything else other than yet another apocalyptic blood bath? Is this really what you want? I think not!

So you finish counting and you say instead, “We do not have to be the same in order to be friends.” We are all intimately connected with one another. We breathe the same air and drink the same water. Our children go to school together and we are all worried about the economy. We are all struggling from one pay check to the next and we all, for the most part, try our best to be good people. I may not agree with you and you might be different, but diversity is good, diversity is essential, for the survival of the larger system upon which all of us without exception are totally dependent.

Unfortunately we all know that it is not that simple. Albert Einstein puts our dilemma quite well when he says: “We have changed many things but we have not changed the fundamental way in which we think and thus we drift toward an unparalleled catastrophe of our own making.”

There is one final quote with which I would end. It is by Piet Hein, a Danish scientist, mathematician, inventor, author and poet who first published in April 1940. Piet Hein was also an active participant in the resistance movement. He is a shining example and a reminder of the incredible power of the word.

“Coexistence or no existence.”

That much at least is simple.

Roger Frary Putnam Station

Vote for Harrington To the Times of Ti: Charles Harrington is running for Crown Point supervisor. An intelligent and educated man, he has been a teacher and businessman his entire adult life. From his business experience he knows the value of a dollar and how to use it efficiently. He has common sense and knows how to interact with people. He knows enough to seek guidance from those who have preceded him and take advantage of their experience and knowledge. He knows that whenever possible it is better for our town to hire local people with knowledge of our unique culture rather than out-of-towners.

Running for councilman is Charles Mazurowski. His 19 years of serve to Crown Point and 12 years as a supervisor are widely known and his experience cannot be questioned.

We really need that expertise at this critical point in time in Crown Point.

Also running for councilman is Tara Peters. Because of the situation Crown Point is in financially, we feel Tara’s qualifications are impressive and fit the need. A bachelor ’s degree in business management and experience as an auditor are just what we need to help put Crown Point back on solid footing. All small towns are struggling and someone with this kind of background will certainly help smooth out the rough spots our town is facing. We need experienced and educated people who know what they are doing, not people who are flying by the seat of their pants and expecting everything to work out OK. You either understand finance or you don’t. Supervisor Kosmider and Councilman Dushane do not. Their blunders are costing the town of Crown Point money. Crown Point absolutely cannot afford another term with these two people making such important decisions with our money.

Please vote on Nov. 8. Vote for Harrington, Mazurowski, Peters and Wood.

Suzanne Harper Crown Point

Silvestri is honest To the Times of Ti: It is very difficult to assess the qualifications of a candidate for the New York Supreme Court, particularly if the voter has had no professional contact with the candidates.

I have known and worked with John Silvestri for over 25 years, and I have found him to be a hard working, honest, courteous, fair and intelligent individual. In my opinion, he has all the qualities a voter would require of a New York State Supreme Court Judge.

Save the summer youth program Defeat Kosmider To the Times of Ti:

To the Times of Ti:

I read with great disappointment that the Ticonderoga town board is considering cutting the youth summer program in its 2012 budget. Three of our children attended the program this past summer and they had a fantastic experience. It is a great program and worthy of another look.

With obesity, particularly childhood obesity, becoming such a concern in our nation, there is nothing more important than giving our children every opportunity to get out and enjoy our outdoor resources. This program provides an opportunity for our town’s young people to do something active, enriching, and positive. And one of the best aspects of the program is the daily trip to the town beach on Lake George.

The Ti beach is the only public access that the town of Ticonderoga has on Lake George. We should be doing all we can to encourage its use. Bringing the summer program children out to the beach each day is an ideal way of encouraging children to make the lake a part of their lives. And with so many lakes and rivers in our region, children need skills like swimming and water safety that they get as part of their time at the beach. Just a few years ago, the Lake George Association helped secure a grant from Sen. (Betty) Little and managed the project to build a beautiful new beach building primarily to serve the needs of the hundreds of children who came out to the beach each day. The old building was just not capable of supporting the activity. The new building is attractive, functional, low-maintenance, and should not be allowed to drift off into disuse. It is a $100,000+ investment that should be utilized by all.

In addition to the time at the beach, the summer program kept the children active in other ways. They went bowling.

They took walks. They played on the new playground. They biked to the beach. They played sports and took part in a track and field day.

The Ti youth summer program is also educational. The children learned bike safety. They spent time at the library.

They were exposed to culture at the Arts Trek and Heritage Museum programs. They went out on the LGA’s Floating Classroom to learn about Lake George and our region’s environment which was provided to the children through a grant at no cost.

Many of the enriching activities cost little or nothing themselves. The program needs funding to cover the costs of the dedicated counselors who guide and watch over the children. Incidentally, this provides summer jobs for local college-age people which generate some economic development.

I encourage the board members to sharpen their pencils – and I know from my own work that that is a daunting task— and look elsewhere for places to cut, not the summer youth program. Our children should not be the ones who suffer from rising health insurance premiums, unfunded mandates and rising utilities costs.

This program provides activities, education, and supervised access to the outdoors. I don’t want to see us end up with a community of sedentary young people parked in front of the TV or video game all summer. Not every working family can find a way to get out and enjoy all the summer activities that this program offers.

I implore the board, don’t close down the program. Give the children an opportunity to get out and do something and enjoy our natural resources. Ask participants to chip in a little more to cover the costs. Seek more free or subsidized activities like the Floating Classsroom and Arts Trek. Find more creative ways to keep this valuable program. It’s one of the few things that we offer our youth in this area that is equally accessible to everyone.

Walt Lender Ticonderoga Walt Lender is executive director of the Lake George Association.

In the decades we have lived in Crown Point, we have no memory of having to have security guards at the door of a town meeting. In her short time in office Bethany Kosmider so far has: • Created chaos and dissension and divided the town.

• Stripped us of the right to vote on an issue we had a legal right to vote on.

• Fired a civil servant (certified) without a hearing and now we are having to pay for a lawsuit.

• Hired an out-of-town water/sewer person (not certified) and then had to pay someone to train him. (See town website).

• Abruptly fired two office employees yet still praised one for her good work. (See town website).

• Failed to make Monitor Bay a viable source of revenue (campaign promise).

• Started a website which we pay for every month and never kept it updated so we would know what was to be discussed at town meetings.

• Neglected to mention to the townspeople that the new assessors stated salary did not include FICA, etc.

• Hired security guards and a police escort home at taxpayer expense for the meeting held in July.

• Hired a more expensive lawyer from Glens Falls (bypassing cheaper local attorneys).

• Failed to file required monthly financial reports for months at a time (public record).

• Always has an excuse…”Somebody gave me the wrong figures” – “It’s the computer ’s fault” – and probably the dog at her homework too.

We need to vote for Charles Harrington, Charles Mazurowski and Tara Peters and take back our town. Heed the battle cry and “Can the Kos.” Election Day is Nov 8.

Support for highway super To the Times of Ti: I have been following this (Hague) election debate from its inception and I am alarmed at the denigrating remark made by Mr. (EJ) Siwek toward the current highway superintendent, Don Smith.

For the record, Mr. Siwek says Dan Belden asked him to run.

Not true and denied by Mr. Belden when he was asked by many people. Dan even has a Don Smith sign on his lawn, but no Siwek sign. At candidates night I specifically asked Mr. Siwek if he had a CDL license and the answer was no, if he had ever driven a snow plow at night like the highway personnel do and the answer was no. Based on his resume wouldn’t he have been known as a project engineer and the answer was yes.

Mr. Siwek is a eloquent speaker but a candidate without any experience for this job. Mr. Siwek speaks of his background and experience but I am informed he is or was a educator. He says he has operated a range of equipment, but gives no specifics as to where and when.

The superintendent’s job has been adequately filled by the veteran Highway Superintendent Don Smith for the past four years and I would encourage the knowledgeable voters of Hague to vote for Don Smith. He has the experience, Mr. Siwek has the rhetoric.

Gene Moran Hague

Penfield dam a concern To the Times of Ti:

Assessor bids farewell To the Times of Ti: I would like to take this opportunity to thank you (Crown Point residents) for your support for the past 37 years. I have served the town in several different positions: town justice, town councilman, deputy supervisor, assessor and as of late chairman of the assessors. During this time I have worked under five different supervisors and I don’t know how to say this any other way then to just simply say that (Bethany) Kosmider has created a mess. She has not accomplished one thing that she said she would 1 year and 10 months ago.

On leaving this job, I took a good hard look at the people’s assessments that have been doing all the whining, complaining and personal attacking with assessments, articles and pictures of properties in the newspaper. Laura Harvey seems to be doing most of the whining. Harvey has been to the review board for the last three years to get her assessment lowered – she pays a total school tax bill of $0.

So, I will let you be the judge. Compare this tax amount to your ’s. Maybe we should pay her to live in Crown Point?

There is good news for Laura, the bridge to Vermont will be open soon and if she is that dissatisfied with the town of Crown Point then maybe she should take it!

Carl Ross Crown Point

During Hurricane/Tropical Storm Irene Penfield Pond and its dam threatened the residences in the valley below the dam. Life and property were in jeopardy.

Crown Point Town Supervisor Bethany Kosmider notified the DEC (state Department of Environmental Conservation) of the danger posed by the issues at Penfield.

The front banks of Penfield Pond were reinforced with many sand bags, thanks to the coordinated efforts of Councilman Bob Patnode, concerned citizens and the prisoners from Moriah Shock. Thank you, you all know who you are.

I received an alert from the NYS Alert System saying Penfield Pond would begin to be lowered by Saturday, Sept. 24, three feet at a time. I have seen only limited work done on the pond, the bank next to the dam being compromised to allow drainage of a number of feet.

I contacted the DEC on Oct. 21. The agent informed me lowering the pond was a temporary fix to put the pond at a safer level. The agent said the owners were responsible for the dam. The owners must have the dam inspected by a certified dam inspector, then advise the DEC by January of the action recommended and follow through (remove the dam completely, repair the damn if possible or replace it).

The dam at Penfield is very old, being man-made to develop a private pond for its sport fishermen. How ironic; a private pond on a public waterway, that the public does not have access to, putting the public at risk.

A central calendar of events is important L

ast month I talked about what exactly is a chamber of commerce, the role a chamber plays within the community, as well as briefly reviewed all that the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce Chamber Connection does.

This month I want to discuss the importance of a central calendar of events for the area. The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce keeps an online area calendar with dates and information on events, meetings and more.

The chamber is working to improve the calendar of events in order to become a central calendar for the area. The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce is looking for area businesses, organizations and committees to share their event information as well as a schedule of upcoming events if they are available.

We are asking everyone to share their event information with the chamber to ensure we have the most up to date information on the online calendar.

The calendar will serve as a central location for community members, organizations and visitors in finding events within the area as well as a referencing tool used when planning future events in the Ticonderoga area.

In addition to sharing your event information we are asking all of you before setting a date for a new event to please reference the calendar to try to eliminate conflicts and overlapping events.

"Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success."-- Henry Ford In order to work together to better serve the community and visitors, it is important to create a centralized calendar where information about events can be shared not only to promote the area but to eliminate scheduling conflicts. We strongly encourage everyone to please share information on upcoming events on a regular basis and as soon as the information is available. If you have a yearly calendar available please share that schedule with the chamber.

Event information can be emailed to chamberinfo@ticonderogany.com or dropped off at the chamber office which is located at 94 Montcalm St. in downtown Ticonderoga.

The chamber is working on a new website which will also have a new calendar of events. It will have a community calendar and a visitor calendar. In addition people will be able to submit their events online.

To learn more about the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce visit www.ticonderogany.com or visit us at 94 Montcalm St., Suite 1 in downtown Ticonderoga.

The TACC serves, markets and promotes the Ticonderoga area including Ticonderoga, Crown Point, Hague, Moriah and Putnam.

We encourage you to all become a fan of the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce on facebook and follow TiconderogaADK on twitter to stay up to date with news, events, see photos and more.

Ti programs forced to move from Armory

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Damage from a boiler explosion last spring and a subsequent legal fight have forced Ticonderoga to move its senior citizen program from the Armory.

Six months after a blast destroyed one boiler and seriously damaged another, the Armory still has no heat.

With cold weather approaching, town officials have moved the Ticonderoga Senior Center to the lower floor of the Community Building at 132 Montcalm St. The phone number remains the same, 585-6050. It is open 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays and is closed on holidays and whenever the Community Building is closed.

The Armory also served as home to the Adirondack Community Action Program nutrition site. That program has been moved to the Ticonderoga Veterans of Foreign Wars Post on Shore Airport Road.

The Ticonderoga youth commission after-school, youth cheerleading and biddy basketball programs all remain at the Armory — for now.

“My plan is to stay at the Armory until I can’t,” said Marge Hurlburt, Ti youth director. “I think we’ll be fine until the middle of November; it all depends on how cold it gets.”

The after-school program includes activities, socialization and exercise as well as time for homework. Students in kindergarten through grade 5 attend Monday and Tuesday and students in grades 6 to 12 Wednesday. If there is no school or early dismissal because of weather, the programs are canceled. There are vending machines located on site for students to purchase snacks. For more information, call Marge Hurlburt 597-4135 or 5861052.

An oil-fired boiler exploded at the building last April.

The blast destroyed one boiler and seriously damaged another, leaving the facility without heat.

A subsequent legal dispute has prevented the town from making repairs.

The town’s insurance carrier agreed to pay $93,119 to cover the replacement of the boilers and other damage.

That was the good news for Ti. The bad news was the insurance company believed negligence on the part of the boiler installation company or the boiler maintenance firm caused the explosion.

The insurance company wanted to recoup its payment to the town from the responsible party. That meant a lengthy investigation. Ticonderoga could not make repairs until the investigators were done studying the damaged boilers.

The investigation is complete and Ticonderoga is now seeking bids to install a new heating system in the Armory. Temporary heat will be installed as quickly as possible to prevent frost damage and to make the building comfortable for workers.

It’s not certain if that temporary heat will be enough to allow youth programs to continue in the building.

Once temporary heat is in the Armory, work will begin on a permanent solution.

Ticonderoga car show winners advance Vehicles selected for ‘elite’ event

TICONDEROGA — The Best of Show Car and Best of Show Truck chosen at the 2011 Ticonderoga Area Car Show, held last August in Bicentennial Park, have moved on to a regional event.

Best of Show Car winner Larry Huestis of Ticonderoga and Best of Show Truck winner Butch and Marsha Morse of Whitehall received a Super Wheel Qualifier certificate giving the winners a chance to represent the Ticonderoga area Oct. 1 in Boston at the Cruisin’ New England Super Wheels Showdown, held at City Plaza.

There both finished in the top three and were invited to the Cruisin’ New England Elite Show at the Mohegan Sun Casino Uncas Grand Ballroom in Uncasville, Conn. That show will be held June 31 and July 1, 2012.

“Vehicles came from all over New England, New York, and New Jersey. It turned out to be one of the best showdowns in recent years,” stated Paul Mennett of Cruisin’ New England Productions Inc. “You should be proud that both of your choices will be part of next years’ Elite Dream Machines. This speaks to the quality of vehicles at your show.”

“The Ticonderoga Area Car Show wouldn’t be possible without the continued dedication of volunteers and participants over the past 19 years. We are proud and honored that the Best of Show Car and Best of Show truck from the 2011 show were recently chosen to move on to the Super Wheel Elite Show at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut, said Matthew Courtright, Ti chamber executive director. “On behalf of the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce and the entire community, we wish Larry Huestis and Butch and Marsha Morse the best of luck.”

Fort Ti, college partner on project TICONDEROGA — Graduate students from New York University’s Preston Robert Tish Center for Hospitality, Tourism and Sports Management are partnering with Fort Ticonderoga as part of their work in a Cultural Heritage Tourism class.

The students are developing a concept for the Fort Ticonderoga’s learning campus as part of the fort’s comprehensive plan.

The partnership was initiated by Mike Konzen, principal of PGAV Destinations, and board member for the Friends of The Tisch Center – Hospitality and Tourism. PGAV Destinations is developing Fort Ticonderoga’s comprehensive plan.

The first phase of the plan is expected to be complete in December 2011.

As part of the project the students and their professor, Dr. Sharr Prohaska, visited Fort Ticonderoga recently to learn about the fort’s history, programs, marketing plan, partnerships and educational opportunities as a year-round learning campus.

The class project will focus on the opportunities related to learning experiences connected with the fort’s developing historic trades program and museum studies, as well as other areas such as land and water management, horticulture and geology.

Prohaska said the visit was “a wonderful educational ex-

perience in a new world of discovery for the students who are from several countries including Uzbekistan, China, and the United States.”

The students expressed that the visit made clear the magnitude of opportunities available at Fort Ticonderoga to develop as major destination and year-round learning campus.

Prohaska concluded, “The potential is endless as it is such an American treasure.”

Fort Ticonderoga Executive Director Beth Hill emphasized that the project is an example of what the multi-disciplined learning campus can include. According to Hill, Fort Ticonderoga in many ways has already begun the development of the concept through its university partnerships, seminars and workshops.

“The learning campus offers us the opportunity to widen our audience and broaden the season to offer year-round experiences at one of North America’s most significant and beautiful historic sites,” Hill said.

Ti church to mark anniversary Methodists to celebrate 200 years

TICONDEROGA — The 200th anniversary of Methodism in Ticonderoga will be celebrated at the First United Methodist Church on Sunday, Nov. 13.

Everyone is welcome to join in the festivities that will begin at the 10:30 a.m. service. For this Sunday, the 8:30 service will not be held.

Many former pastors, district superintendents, their families and area clergy have been invited to the special celebration honoring 200 years of continuous Methodism in

Ticonderoga.

“Surely many stories will be shared about the rich heritage the congregation and the community share,” said Betty Rettig of the church. “Members and friends of the church as well as the community are encouraged to attend.”

Following the worship service led by Pastor Scott Tyler, a luncheon will be served in Fellowship Hall. Reservations for the dinner must be made in advance, preferably by Nov. 7, by calling the church office at 585-7995.

An updated booklet about the church’s ministry and service in the community will be available at the celebration. Members of the 200th anniversary committee, Sandy

••••• TIMES

Hurlburt Trepanier, Grace Trombley and Linda Moore have been researching and planning for over a year for this event.

The First United Methodist Church located at 1045 Wicker St. (Route 9N) in Ticonderoga was previously located on Montcalm Street in the downtown area of Ti. “Generations of faithful members attended services there until 1964 when the present building was opened,” Rettig said. “The site for many community events as well as weddings and funerals, the First United Methodist Church is looking forward to another century of spiritual and community involvement. “

Marnell takes aim at high insurance costs

Schroon Lake • Times of Ti - 15

Has Your Heating Company Been Sold?

Are You Concerned About Receiving Personal, Courteous And Quick Service?

Schroon supervisor candidate

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — Cutting employee insurance and retirement costs will be a priority for Michael Marnell if he becomes town of Schroon supervisor.

Marnell is running for the office on the Republican and Independent lines in the Nov. 5 general election. He is opposed by Meg Wood, who is running as an Independent.

Dennis Christian will also appear on the ballot, but he has withdrawn from the race.

Cathy Moses, the incumbent Schroon supervisor, is not seeking re-election this fall.

Marnell said the rising costs of employee health insurance and retirement are the top issues facing Schroon residents, along with unfunded state mandates.

“I’ll research the possibility that Essex County and all towns use a competitive bid process to seek lower premiums,” Marnell said. “Unfunded mandates by New York State will have to be proven they are absolutely necessary Michael Marnell or receive (state) funding.”

Marnell, a former restaurant and motel owner, has long been involved in Schroon affairs.

He served 20 years as town highway superintendent and spent 10 years on the town board.

He also served five years on the Schroon Lake Central School Board of Education.

Marnell doesn’t believe major changes are needed in Schroon.

“Fortunately for the town of Schroon and Essex County, Cathy Moses has done an excellent job,” he said. “The town looks great. I will continue to maintain these projects.

“After 20 years of service as superintendent of highways and working as a builder I will have ideas and methods to do various maintenance,” he added. “We need to consolidate equipment, share services within the town between all departments and remember we are all working for the taxpayers in Schroon Lake.”

Marnell is confident he can be an effective town supervisor.

“Based on my past experience I have proven to be a hard worker and a good supervisor,” he said. “I will be available at all times. I will continue to support special projects for all age groups.

“I will find ways to cut energy costs,” he added. “I will continue to contact the New York State Department of Transportation in Albany urging them to make improvements on Route 9 south of Schroon. I will also urge Time Warner to continue extending service lines. Verizon will also be urged to upgrade.”

Schroon voters will also be voting on other town offices.

Republican Clara Phibbs and Democrat Mark Whitney, both incumbents, are running for re-election to two open town board seats. They are being challenged by Republican Donald Sage, a former trustee, and Independent Bruce Caza.

There is also a race for highway superintendent. Incumbent Dana Shaughnessy, a Republican, is facing Independent Dale Pecor.

Running unopposed in Schroon are Republican Patricia Savarie for town clerk/tax collector and independents Richard Newell and Richard Schoenstadt for assessors. All are incumbents.

Wood sees need for greater technology Schroon supervisor candidate

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — Meg Wood believes Schroon’s future lies in technology.

Wood is running for the office as an Independent in the Nov. 5 general election. She is opposed by Michael Marnell, who is running on the Republican and Independent lines. Dennis Christian will also appear on the ballot, but he has withdrawn from the race.

Cathy Moses, the incumbent Schroon supervisor, is not seeking re-election this fall.

Wood thinks increased access to phone and Internet communication should be a top priority for the community.

“Our greatest issue is pursuing cellular and broadband communications capabilities for all residents to support educational, economic and social opportunities equal to other regions of New York State,” Wood said. “I will continue to work with federal, state and local officials, regional organizations and state agencies to create business models that will bring wireless infrastructure and service providers, as well as the necessary funding, to our region.”

Wood is a member of the Schroon town board and has served the last nine years as 113th Assembly District director for Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward. She has also been an agent/broker at the Wood Agency for 25 years.

The next Schroon town supervisor will face serious financial challenges, Wood noted.

“We’re facing decreasing financial resources needed to maintain our town’s infrastructure, to support municipal fire protection, ambulance and other local services,” she said. “We have to work creatively with residents, businesses and local organizations to enhance the unique qualities of

Schroon Lake.”

Wood feels she is the best candidate to serve Schroon residents as their supervisor.

“Experience as a business owner has given me understanding of the challenges in managing fi-

nances, employees and changing economic situations,” she said. “As a district director for the Assembly, I have strong experience with legislation, government programs and state agency personnel, assessing economic development opportunities, grants management and serving the needs of North Country constituents as well as working with elected officials from across the Adirondack Park. As a member of the Schroon town council, I have knowledge of the issues we face every day, confidence in our future and the desire to serve our town.”

Schroon voters will also be voting on other town offices.

Dale Pecor ~ Independent For Schroon Lake Highway Superintendent Self-Employed Contractor for 16 years Employed by Schroon Lake Highway Department from 1997-2002.

My past experience includes delegating responsibilities and budgeting to complete projects both small and large. Honesty is the best practice whether working with customers or a community. I am running for Highway Superintendent because I’m certain I can make a difference in the maintenance of not only our roads but our equipment and Highway Buildings. I will work diligently with the men at the Highway Department as well as the other Department Heads. I look forward to working with the board members and on community affairs. If elected, I will direct my attention to the issues at hand such as, Installing shoulder stone on the roads that were black topped months ago. Clean up brush and trees (the remnants of Irene), clean ditches and shoulders, and maintain surfaces of our primary, secondary, and seasonal roads.

Water rates to increase for some residents in Moriah Village decision impacts district 3

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com MORIAH — A group of Moriah water customers are in line for a price hike — and there’s nothing town officials can do about it.

Water District 3, which serves 14 homes along Route 9N/22 south of Port Henry, will pay more for water beginning in May. Since the district is separated from Moriah’s other water districts by the village of Port Henry, the town buys water from the village to service the area.

Port Henry, citing financial loses in its water operation, is raising rates in the village by 39 percent, from $3.89 per 1,000 gallons to $5.40. The village is also increasing the rate it charges Moriah for water going to District 3. The town will pass that price increase along to customers, Moriah Supervi-

sor Tom Scozzafava said.

“The residents there will see a substantial increase in their cost for water,” Scozzafava said of District 3. “The town board has no control over this.”

Even with the price increase, Scozzafava said, it’s cheaper to buy water from the village than to attempt to connect District 3 with other Moriah water systems.

The district doesn’t have water meters now, so the annual user charge will go from $334 to $465, the same 39 percent increase village residents are getting.

There will be public hearing on the rate increase Thursday, Nov. 10, at 5:40 p.m. at the Moriah courthouse, adjacent to the town hall at Park Place in Port Henry.

Individual water meters will be installed in the future, Scozzafava said.

“In fairness to the people in that district, we’ll install meters,” Scozzafava said. “People should only pay for what they actually use.”

Once meters are installed, the gallon rate will be used instead, he said.

Cheney Mountain trail work continues with final 200 feet

Pat Moore

to the Team

with over 25 years experience

MORIAH — Volunteers and members of Champlain Area Trails (CATS) are looking to finish the work needed to bring the complete Cheney Mountain Trail to life.

“We made it almost all the way to the great view, but simply ran out of time,” Stuart Jerdo, who helped organize the Oct. 8 project to create the new Cheney Mountain Trail on Pelfershire Road in Moriah, said. “So on Saturday, Nov. 5, we’re asking volunteers to join us in hiking to the top and clearing the final 200 feet of trail.”

The town of Moriah is partnering with CATS to develop the trail for families, friends, and lone hikers to go up a short and sometimes steep trail to see amazing views of the Champlain Valley and High Peaks.

“The best time for good views is after the leaves fall,” Chris Maron, executive director of CATS, said. “So we’re getting people together for a hike to see the views and then finish with clearing the final few hundred feet of trail. We invite hikers and volunteers to come out on

Saturday morning to cut tree limbs and saplings, remove fallen logs, and clear brush.”

“Champlain Area Trails is creating trails that link New York’s Champlain Valley communities,” Maron said.

The Cheney Mountain Trail Day begins at 8:30 a.m. Nov. 5 and will last until about noon.

People should meet on Pelfershire Road, about 1.3 miles west of Rt. 22/9N. Please bring gloves, loppers, and hand saws. The town will also provide tools.

For more details, call 962-2287 or email champlaintrails@gmail.com.

building in Mineville, the Iron Center museum in Port Henry and, most recently, the Knights of Columbus in Port Henry.

“We’re very appreciative to all the community organizations throughout the years,” Scozzafava said.

“They’ve been very helpful.”

Moriah has paid $75 a month for the use of a meeting hall for its meetings. Returning to it own building, the town will no longer spend that $900 a year.

The first meeting at Champlain Valley Tech building trades instructor Kevin Shaw, left, shakes the courthouse will be hands with students at the June dedication of the renovated Moriah court Thursday, Nov. 10. The house. Classes from Yandon Dillon Educational Center in Mineville built the building is not yet handicap accessible, but the addition to the court house for the town.

Knights of Columbus is not available on that date forcing Moriah trustees to make a move. The December town board meeting will likely be at the Knights of Columbus, Scozzafava said, with all meetings at the court building starting in January.

It’s been three years in the making, but the town of Moriah has a renovated, expanded court thanks to a group of students.

Champlain Valley Tech students constructed an 864-square-foot addition on the Moriah court, helping the town meet a state mandate and giving the community an updated structure.

New York State had mandated court expansion in Moriah since 2008. Steven Gold of the New York State Office of Court Administration told the Moriah town board in June 2008 its 12x14-foot room that served as Moriah town court was inadequate and needed to be addressed.

The town had plans to erect its own modular building to house its court and police department adjacent to the town hall at Park Place in Port Henry. That project was shelved when the cost soared. Originally expected to cost about $170,000, estimates for a new court building reached as high as $500,000 because of state regulations and mandates.

Town trustees then considered several short-term solutions to the court situation, before deciding to ask CV Tech to construct an addition.

Scozzafava said the court project, with the help of students, cost the town about $50,000.

The project was financed by a grant from the state Office of Court Administration.

This is not the first time CV Tech students have gained experience while helping Moriah residents. They built an entire home as part of a low-income housing project two years ago. They’ve also built the town trash transfer station building and erected an addition on the town water treatment plant that included installation of garage doors.

MORIAH — Hundreds of Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union (TFCU) members and others from the community visited the credit union Oct. 17-21 to partake in International Credit Union Week festivities.

Events kicked off Oct. 17 at TFCU’s Ticonderoga office with the second annual Shred Fest – a free paper shredding event, aimed at increasing public awareness of identity theft prevention.

Participants were invited to bring personally identifying documents and a non-perishable food item for donation to the area food pantries, in exchange for free paper-shredding. Shred Fest continued on Oct. 18 at TFCU’s Port Henry and Elizabethtown branches.

TFCU staff greeted participants and gave informational brochures with tips to avoid identity theft. Over 3,000 pounds of paper was securely destroyed in a mobile shredding truck. Proceeds from the recycling of paper generated by Shred Fest totaled $300 and was donated to the area food pantries.

The Credit Union Week celebration continued with member appreciation barbecues. Staff at each of TFCU’s three branches served several hundred free lunches.

“Credit Union Week provides an opportunity for our staff to interact with our

play in their communities.

Differing from banks, credit unions do not pay dividends to outside shareholders.

Rather, earnings are returned to their members in the form of lower loan rates, higher interest rates on deposits and lower or no transaction fees.

Kosmider to focus on infrastructure Crown Point supervisor candidate

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Crown Point faces major infrastructure problems, according to Supervisor Bethany Kosmider, that will be a priority if she’s elected to a second term.

Kosmider is running for re-election on the Democratic line in the Nov. 8 general election. She’s being challenged by Republican Charles Harrington.

“Our greatest issue is our infrastructure,” Kosmider said. “Two water mains are in dire need of replacement – one being dated to 1890 and the other is asbestos coated. Our sidewalks are in disrepair and, after Hurricane Irene, our roads and bridges are damaged.

“I am hoping that a grant applied for originally before I took office, and updated each year, will be awarded to the town to replace

the water main,” she said.

“Many of our issues, wa“I have applied for FEMA terfront development, re(Federal Emergency Manpair of town buildings and agement Agency) funding need for business, can be for the damage to the roads more attainable with a and bridges.

“I feel people should vote for me as I strive

for fairness and equality for all,” Kosmider said. “I advocate for the people and put the future of our town in the forefront. I am practical, resourceful and dedicated to the job. I have only been in office for 22 months and I have accomplished many tasks and implemented many new changes that were in the best interest of the people.”

Crown Point voters will also be filling other offices Election Day. Four candidates are vying for two town board seats. Republican incumbent Charles Mazurowski and incumbent Independent Yvonne Dushane are facing Republican Tara Peters and Independent Sherlene Simpson Barrows.

Highway Superintendent Eugene Ingleston is seeking re-election unopposed. He is a Republican.

Harrington makes trust a major issue Crown Point supervisor candidate

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Trust is the key platform in Charles Harrington’s campaign for Crown Point supervisor.

Harrington, a Republican, is running against incumbent Democrat Bethany Kosmider in the Nov. 8 general election.

Kosmider ’s first term has been marked by a controversial decision to eliminate the town’s elected three-member board of assessors in favor of a sole, appointed assessor. Harrington believes that decision should have been made by voters in a public referendum.

“I’ll work to restore trust that was violated by the actions of the current supervisor and supporting council members in changing the assessment system without a local referendum,” Harrington said of his top priority as supervisor. “The responsibility of government is to remedy issues, not to create them.

“I will keep all board members and the general populace informed of concerns facing the town,” he said. “I will listen to and respect the general populace. When important decisions need to be made that will affect the way government functions, referendums need to be employed thereby establishing home rule.”

Harrington also believes Crown Point has infrastructure problems that must be addressed.

“The maintenance and modernization of infrastructure is critical to the health and safety of citizenry,” Harrington

said. “I will work toward this by respecting tax dollars in all areas and creating a means of transparency with town council members and the general public.

I will make sure to establish an atmosphere of trust with other elected officials, town employees and residents.”

Harrington is a retired teacher and owner of a greenhouse in Charles Harrington Crown Point. He has served on the Crown Point Central School board of education, the Champlain valley Educational Services board, the Cornell Cooperative Extension board and the Essex County Arts Council. He earned a bachelor ’s degree from Keene State College and has done graduate work at SUNY Plattsburgh, the University of Vermont and Castleton State College.

Harrington believes he’s the right person to be Crown Point supervisor.

“I realize the importance and responsibilities of local government,” he said. “I will remain focused on the issues, consult with all council members, be mentored by those with experience and not be intimidated by seemingly overwhelm-

ing tasks. I will remain honest and forthright involving all issues. I will respect the wishes of the people and do my best to help establish and maintain an atmosphere of safety, honor, respect and trustworthiness with all people. I will not be afraid to say I made a mistake and as a result research alternative solutions.”

Crown Point voters will also be filling other offices Election Day. Four candidates are vying for two town board seats. Republican incumbent Charles Mazurowski and incumbent Independent Yvonne Dushane are facing Republican Tara Peters and Independent Sherlene Simpson Barrows.

CROWN POINT — A Crown Point church will honor local veterans during a special service.

The First Congregational Church of Crown Point will host its third annual Veteran’s Recognition and Appreciation Sunday Nov. 6. The event will be part of the regular 9:30 a.m. worship service.

The First Congregational Church of Crown Point is, appropriately, located on the town’s Veterans Park.

“Veterans from local VFWs, American Legions, Disabled American Veterans (DAV), as well as individual veterans have been invited to share this time of gratitude for sacrifices that they have made for our country and our communities,” the Rev. David Hurtle, pastor, said.

Essex County Veterans Affairs Agent Timothy Pierce will speak.

“Did you realize that it is estimated that the men and women who are part of The Greatest Generation and served during the second World War are dying at a rate of 1,000 per week?,” Hirtle said. “Did you know that thousands of men and women fought, were wounded and died and their efforts were under or never acknowledged? Did you know that the majority of men and women serving in the Middle East are members of a local guard or reserve unit?

“Let us make this Veterans Day our opportunity to gather as a community and give thanks for the commitment these veterans showed to their country by raising their hands and serving this great nation.”

The service is open to the public. There will be a fellowship period following the service. Coffee will be served.

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Gov. Andrew Cuomo has endorsed Bethany Kosmider in her bid to be re-elected Crown Point supervisor.

It’s believed to the first time a governor has ever formally endorsed a local supervisor candidate.

“I consider it an honor to be recognized for my work by Gov. Cuomo,” Kosmider said. “I am energized and more determined to continue in my quest for equality and fairness of all our citizens, while making Crown Point an attractive choice to visit, live and work.”

Kosmider, a Democrat, is being challenged by Republican Charles Harrington.

“New York needs local leaders like Beth Kosmider,” Cuomo said. “Her commitment to fiscal responsibility and fairness serves Crown Point and

New York well.

“In her first term in office, Supervisor Kosmider is working to secure the resources needed to improve Crown Point’s water system and other infrastructure,” the governor said.

“She is working to secure FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) reimbursement to help Crown Point recover from spring floods and Hurricane Irene. She is currently seeking support to help the town rebuild the Monitor Bay retaining wall.

“Supervisor Kosmider has also been working to reduce the cost and improve the effectiveness of town government by moving from three elected assessors to one appointed assessor and implementing a drug testing policy for town employees who operate heavy equipment,” Cuomo added.

Kosmider led an effort to eliminate Crown Point’s three-member,

elected board of assessors in favor of a sole appointed assessor. The move, which was approved by the town board by a 3-2 vote, has proven to be controversial.

Kosmider and her supporters claimed the sole assessor will save Crown Point taxpayers money. They also point out nine other towns in the county have made the switch to a sole assessor, which has been recommended by the state as a way to consolidate and shrink government.

Crown Point’s elected assessors and their supporters have been outspoken in their opposition to the change. They have don’t believe the change will save money and believe the issue should have been decided by a townwide referendum of voters.

The pro-elected assessor faction has endorsed Harrington. Signs throughout the community call for Kosmider to be ousted from office.

Harrington did not return calls

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has endorsed Bethany Kosmider in her bid to be re-elected Crown Point supervisor. It’s believed to be the first time a governor has ever formally endorsed a local supervisor candidate. seeking comment on the governor’s decision to involve himself in the Crown Point race.

The endorsement by Cuomo is important, Kosmider said.

“I am elated and proud to receive Gov. Cuomo’s endorsement,” Kosmider said. “His support makes me want to work harder on behalf of the citizens of Crown Point.”

Crown Point struggling to meet tax cap with 2012 spending plan Preliminary budget up 4.9 percent

increase. Crown Point has not adopted such a law.

A public hearing on the preliminary budget will be held Wednesday, Nov. 9, at 6 p.m. at the Crown Point fire house.

The preliminary spending plan totals $1,873,443. That’s a $132,672 increase — 7.6 percent — from the present budget of $1,740,771.

The preliminary tax levy for 2012 is $1,092.153. That’s an increase of $51,675 — 4.9 percent — from the present tax levy of $1,040,478.

Kosmider and Walters said the town board will meet after the public hearing to get the tax levy down to 2 percent or below. How they reduce the levy and by how much are the questions.

The board can make cuts to services, programs, salaries and other line items. It can use its fund balance to reduce the tax burden. Or, it can reduce the levy by a combination of cuts and fund balance use.

Crown Point has a healthy fund balance. The town has an extra $271,440 in its general fund and another $182,648 in its highway budget.

“We have fund balance if we chose to use it,” Kosmider said.

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — The 2012 Crown Point town budget will meet the new state 2 percent tax cap.

How and by how much remains to be seen.

The town board adopted a $1.87 million preliminary budget during a special meeting Nov. 1. That preliminary spending plan calls for a 4.9 percent tax increase — more than twice the 2 percent state tax cap.

“We’re going to be under the cap,” Supervisor Bethany Kosmider said. “I’m not pleased with this budget. We have work to do.”

Trustee Tom Walters agreed.

“At this point we’re above the (tax) cap,” he said. “We have to get below it; we have no choice.”

The state tax cap law allows municipalities to exceed the 2 percent increase, but only if they adopt a local law allowing for the

A Sad Day in Crown Point

“If we can’t find another way, it’ll have to be fund balance.”

Walters agreed using fund balance is a possible solution, but he’s wary of reducing the town’s “rainy day” money.

“It might be a mistake to use too much of the fund balance,” Walters said. “You like to keep that fund balance for a rainy day.”

The preliminary 2012 budget cuts no services, employee positions or programs.

Complicating the budget planning is employee health insurance. The town board has received three different estimates on the cost of health insurance for next year, ranging from $49,000 to $83,000. The preliminary budget includes the higher health insurance projection. If the cost is less, that helps lower the tax levy.

Kosmider believes the budget can be reduced significantly before its adoption.

“I won’t be satisfied with 2 percent,” she said. “I want it to be less than that. That’s my goal.”

Walters doesn’t know if less than 2 percent is possible.

“It’s nice to have goals,” he said. “We’ve done well with taxes over the years. The state wants 2 percent or less. We’ve done that for years without the state telling us to.”

UNDECIDED? Take the test below

It is a sad day for Crown Point when people stoop so low as to steal campaign signs of Bethany Kosmider and Yvonne DuShane.

Although the opposition has signs that are vindictive and slanderous, no one has been so inconsiderate or hateful enough to steal, deface or destroy them.

Points

1. Do you believe that ALL people hooked up to our town water & Sewer Systems should be Charged?

Yes No

5 1

Give the people of Crown Point some credit – the latest signs to be put up assume that we do not have minds of our own and have to be told who to vote for.

2. Do you want those who hold offices in our town to be held accountable?

Yes No

4 1

Decisions were made that some people disagree with. These decisions were made by a majority of the Town Board members who believe that this is what is best for all the taxpayers of Crown Point.

3. Do you welcome fair , equitable & accurate assessments?

Yes No

4 1

4. Do you want to see open & transparent government in Crown Point?

Yes No

4 1

5. Would you like regular and consistent hours at the Town Clerk’s office?

Yes No

3 1

6 Do you believe that people in office who Yes are doing a good job should be reelected No & those who aren’t Shouldn’t?

5 1

The issue now is not losing the right to vote, it is the loss of power for a certain few. They just can’t stand the thought of it.

They want to continue to run Crown Point as they have for years for their benefit alone, instead of letting the rest of the people have a say in what is going on in their town.

CROWN POINT — The 26th annual Crown Point Junior Miss program will be held Saturday, Nov. 12, at 7 p.m. at the Crown Point Central school auditorium.

Tickets are being pre-sold at the school office and the Champlain National Bank for $7. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m.

Participating this year are Hailey White, Brittani Boyle, Ashley Anderson, Jordan Popp, Kortney Scheuer and Julieanne Glebus.

The junior class will present a fashion show featuring prom dresses and tuxes from the Fashion Corner in Port Henry.

The program also has seven third grade girls as part of the Little Sister program.

There will be many items, gift certificates and baskets that will be raffled which were donated by area business to sponsor the scholarship fund.

“The committee would like to thank everyone throughout the area that sponsors the program every year,” said Jill Spring, program chairwoman.

The Junior Miss program will become the

Distinguished Young Women program.

“After struggling for years to explain the program which has provided college scholarships and life enhancing opportunities for young women since 1958, America’s Junior Miss has a new name, Distinguished Young Women,” Spring said. “Crown Point's Junior Miss will adopt the new name becoming Distinguished Young Women of Crown Point effective at this year ’s program. The new name describes the young women who participate. They are accomplished, intelligent, service-oriented and ambitious.

“The only changes to the program beside the name change is no bouquet of flowers is present to the winner and next year the girls will wear knee-length dress to get away from the beauty pageant look,” she said. “The categories and percentages are the same.”

For moe information call Spring at 5973789.

Monitor Bay play area deemed unsafe

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Crown Point’s insurance carrier isn’t playing around. It’s declared the playground at Monitor Bay campsite to be unsafe.

“It’s in bad shape,” Supervisor Bethany Kosmider said of the playground. “Our insurance company does an inspection of town property every year. One of their concerns is the playground. They want it addressed.”

To solve the problem the town is seeking a $20,000 grant from the state Department of

Parks and Recreation.

If successful, Crown Point will have to provide a 25 percent match to the grant. Kosmider said the match will be in the form of in-kind services.

New York Municipal Reciprocal Insurance, the town’s insurance provider, said the Monitor Bay playground needs to have its equipment upgraded and a soft surface, such as sand or rubber bits, needs to be placed under the playground equipment.

Kosmider said town officials would like to refurbish the playground as well as construct a barbecue pit and a picnic pavilion at

Monitor Bay. The price tag for the entire project is $50,000, which is more than the town can afford right now.

“We’ve decided to approach the project in small steps,” Kosmider said. “We need to take care of the safety issues first, so that

means the playground is a priority.”

If Crown Point does not receive the grant, officials have two choices. They can close the existing playground or they can seek volunteer labor and donations to upgrade the play area.

We are just days from the November elections and I want to thank all who have supported me in my effort to be re-elected. For the past 2 years, I have worked hard to earn your trust by solving issues and assisting all of our citizens.

I have tried to structure our town government so that it works for all the people.

We are always in the midst of changes, updates, improvements and compliances.

There is much planning still to be done.

Our children are our future and for them to remain in our community and raise their children, we must work together to create new opportunities, by attracting business, jobs and tourism to our community, promoting education and instilling self-respect. If we do not meet these challenges, then they will look elsewhere for their future. We look to our senior citizens to mentor the next generation but they also need our help. As neighbors, we must be there for them.

The following excerpts are from letters of thanks written by townspeople whom I have helped while in office.

“Bethany, you have been a refreshing change as Supervisor of Crown Point. You listened to issues and concerns and actively sought to find solutions that have been successful for all parties included. Thank you, Bethany.”

Robin Barnett, Crown Point “It takes a good listener and one with inspiration and foresight. You definitely have those vital essentials to establish the foundations for positive change and should not be discouraged. I think that you also have the fortitude not to “destroy” the vast history and strength of Crown Point citizens.”

Anita Reichelt, Crown Point A town needs to be run as a business and I have encouraged townspeople to become involved in government. Many of you have gladly answered the call.

Community spirit is alive and well in Crown Point through many committees having been formed and our new Crown Point Chamber. Positive attitudes build a bright future.

If I am re-elected, I will continue to work hard for you every day to make Crown Point a better place to live. That is one thing all of us--Republicans, Democrats, Independents and Conservatives--can agree on. Please help to continue to move Crown Point forward by re-electing me on November 8th. These last two years have shown how, despite differences of opinion, we can work together for the betterment of our town and it’s citizens.

Vikings stun Tupper Lake in 28-20 finals win

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com The Moriah Vikings are the three-time defending Section VII/Class D champions, and on Oct. 28, they proved that the only way to be the champ is to beat them.

The Vikings set up another finals clash with rival Ticonderoga as Tom Ida opened the game with an 81-yard kickoff return and Jessup Calkins had a 67-yard kickoff return and a pair of interceptions to lead their team past the secondseeded Tupper Lake Lumberjacks, 28-20.

“I saw the hole open up and the wedge worked and we had good blocking,” Calkins said about his third quarter scamper that gave the Vikings a 21-14 lead. “It’s a new season to when you get to sectionals, and this is a great way to start the season.”

Calkins said that he was able to read the Lumberjack quarterback, Morgan Stevens, on both of his interceptions.

“I was able to read the play and I caught the ball,” he said.

“That’s a pretty good night for just about anyone,” Vikings head coach Don Tesar said after the game. “The first interception was a key play, and the second one was, too. The kickoff was the biggest of the three, because they had just tied the score at 14-14 and it gave us another spark.”

Another spark was the opening return by Ida, who also ran the ball 16 times for 111 yards and a second touchdown.

“I think that this team that we have has to get on the board first for the momentum,” Tesar said.

“When I saw the ball go under Jeff Greenough, I pickled up the ball,” Ida said. “We are told to go to the middle and when I got their

the return team had crashed to the middle, so I took it out to the sideline, beat the man out there and got to the end zone.”

Special teams were key in the game, as the Ida kick return and a 50-yard punt return that deflected off a Moriah player and into the hands of Lumberjack Garrett Planty were the only scores of the first half.

The Lumberjacks also missed on two of three two-point conversion attempts, including on following a 30-yard score by Tim Ropas (12 carries, 81 yards) late in the fourth quarter. Ropas got the ball on the conversion attempt, but was stopped short of the goal line, leaving the score at 21-20 in favor of the Vikings.

The Lumberjacks then attempted an onside kick, which deflected off a Tupper Lake player before going 10 yards, giving the ball to Moriah.

Ida then scored on a 33-yard run to give the Vikings a 28-20 lead.

On the ensuing drive, the Vikings capped the game with a sack and forced fumble by Justin Cutting (who also recovered a fumble as the halftime horn sounded), and tackles for losses on pass plays

by Trevor Cheney (14-yard loss) and Skyler Graham(two-yard loss).

Tesar said that the momentum that led the Vikings to the Section VII/Class D title game came from their other win in 2011 against the AuSable Valley Patriots.

“We played well the whole game,” Tesar said. “Against Saranac, we showed that we could play that smash mouth style that we want to play and that has just carried into sectionals.”

“I wasn’t surprised how physical they were tonight - I was probably more surprised the first time we played the, with some of the things that we were able to do

then,” Lumberjacks head coach Dennis Klossner said. “I felt that we got everything that we could out of our kids tonight. It’s tough to comeback like they had to every time, especially after you give up a kickoff return. They kept their heads up and kept playing.”

For the Vikings, Landon Cross, who returned to the quarterback position to replace an injured Cole Gaddor, ran for 48 yards and one touchdown while completing oneof-two passes for 23 yards to Travis Nephew. Taylor Whalen added 29 yards and Cheney added 22 yards as well as 1.5 tackles for loss and a half of a sack.

Carlo Calabrese had 3.5 sacks and a forced fumble, as the Vikings caused the Lumberjacks to run 20 plays that resulted in no gain or negative yardage, while the Vikings only had four.

Jordan Garrow finished with 90 yards on 17 carries, while Stone Keniston added 29 yards. Mitch Keniston had 46 yards receiving on four catches.

The Vikings (2-7) faced the Sentinels in the Class D finals Friday, while the Lumberjacks finish the season at 6-3.

“We have to stop that running game,” Tesar said about the renewal of the rivalry. “It’s not just a one person attack.”

“We have to come to practice prepared and be mentally tough from the start to the end of the game,” Ida said.

Ticonderoga wins Ticonderoga used its power running game and defense to beat Plattsburgh, 32-0, in a Northern Football Conference crossover game Oct. 27.

The Sentinels ran for 318 yards as they cruised to a 25-0 lead at the

Nate Lenhart completed all three of his pass attempts in the first half for 32 yards, including his touchdown strike to Lawrie.

Tanner Wright led the Sentinels with 74 rushing yards. Lenhart rushed three times for 66 yards.

Troy LaBounty had a big game on the Ticonderoga line. On offense he helped lead the running attack, while on defense he had an interception and recovered a fumble in the end zone for the Ti’s lone second-half score.

Ticonderoga Jujutsu club taking students TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Jujutsu Club is holding open enrollment for its fall classes.

Traditional jujutsu is an ancient Japanese martial art that utilizes not only punches and kicks, but also throws, joint locking techniques and grappling. Matsukazi Ryu Jujutsu is a practical system of self-defense based upon ancient Japanese forms of combat adapted for modern use. The student will learn how to break an opponent’s balance in order to apply these techniques. The combination of these techniques arms a disciple of Matzukazi Ryu Jujutsu with a very real method of self defense.

This is practical self-defense, excellent exercise and a great way to develop and maintain balance and strength.

History of the Hunt

B

88932

efore the beginnings of basic civilization, the human race survived primarily on their gathering, foraging, scavenging and hunting skills. It was part of an evolutionary tract that occurred simultaneously around the world.

Hunting as a means of gathering food is truly an ancient activity. This age old, pursuit has essentially been conducted on a regular basis around the globe for tens of thousands of years.

Although hunting methods have been refined over the years, with the use of new tools for the hunt and the establishment of game laws and conservation efforts, the purpose is still the same. Hunting in 2011, remains as it was in 201, the only difference are the tools of the take.

There is illustrated evidence of early hunts painted on cave walls all across Europe and Asia. High on the soaring, stone cliffs of Canyon de Chelly in northern Arizona, there remain numerous ‘Indian billboards’ which feature pictographs of the deer, antelope, turkey and ducks that were once plentiful in the region.

Passing travelers read these signs, and understand the message. Over the course of time, various nomadic Native peoples began to settle in other similarly fertile, game rich environments.

In the Southwest, it appears early man hunted primarily in groups, using first, spears and eventually bows and arrows, to harvest wild animals.

As agricultural societies began to establish a presence in North America, bows revolutionized the efficiency of these ‘hunter-gatherers.’ The animals provided the people with food, clothing, shelter and tools.

Eventually, their hunting strategies were refined to utilize such techniques as herding animals into a box canyon, stampeding them over a cliff, or driving them from safe shelter by employing the use of fire.

The earliest known archaeological evidence establishing the use of bow and arrow comes from Western Europe, where some Mousterian sites are dated to approximately 40,000 years ago.

The earliest evidence for the use of the bow and arrow

The Ticonderoga Jujutsu Club is a Black Belt school. TJC instructors hold black belt rank in several martial arts disciplines and regularly train in these arts. The TJC is affiliated with the Matsukazi Ryu Karate, Kobudo, Jujutsu and Aikido Federation headquartered at the Karate Center of Glens Falls.

The federation’s chief instructor is Hanshi (Teacher of Master Teachers) Paul Fracchia.

Hanshi Fracchia is the founder of Matsukazi Ryu Jujutsu and has over 40 years of martial arts experience. He holds the rank of ninth degree black belt. He is a much sought after instructor in Karate, Judo, Jujutsu, and Kobudo (ancient weapons) and regularly teaches seminars throughout the United States.

TJC students will also have the opportunity

in North America comes from the Arctic regions, where a number of local Alaskan complexes grouped into the Paleoarctic Tradition from 9000 to 6000 B.C. More recent research indicates evidence of bow and arrow technology dating back to 12,000, and possibly even 13,000 years ago in the Americas.

From the very first eras of pre-civilization, there is evidence that women maintained the role of caring for the home, raising children and preparing the food brought in by the men.

Men were the hunters, but women largely ran the show.

They decided where and when to make camp, and they were integral in fostering the group’s survival. Indeed, women were responsible for the development of the first established societies in North America.

Eventually, as European civilization advanced with the domestication of animals and the development of agricultural methods, hunting was no longer required for society’s subsistence. As a result, hunting evolved into an activity conducted primarily for entertainment, rather than survival. Hunting was pursued almost exclusively by men, seeking “game.”

The pursuit of game animals was eventually considered a luxury. It became a leisure activity conducted primarily on the large private estates of the European upper class.

By the 1830’s, the British Parliament established the Game Act of 1831 in order to protect game birds by establishing a closed season when they could not be legally taken.

The act also established the need for providing game licenses and the appointment of gamekeepers. The Game Act still covers the protection of British hares, pheasants, partridges, grouse, or moor game and black game.

The Game Licenses Act 1860 extended the definition to include woodcock, snipe, rabbit and deer.

By the 1700’s, members of the British High Society no longer needed to harvest wild game to insure their survival. However, such was not the case in ‘The Colonies,’ where many American pioneers were employed as subsistence hunters.

Eventually, their descendants formed the core of America’s hunting fraternity, and helped to develop the North American model of wildlife management.

A key element in the development of sport hunting and fishing in North American was an 1842 US Supreme Court ruling which set the foundation in U.S. common law for the principle that wildlife resources are owned by no one, rather they are to be held in trust by government for the benefit of present and future generations.

Hunting and angling remain the cornerstones of the

to train in Glens Falls, as well as participate in seminars at other dojos (training halls) throughout the state.

Martial arts programs help improve confidence and self-esteem. The structure and repetition of these programs aid in increasing focus and concentration.

The Ticonderoga Jujutsu Club is open to boys, girls, men and women. It offers a youth program (ages 12 -15), and an adult program for age 16 and older. No previous martial arts training is required.

The club meets on Thursday evenings from 7 to 8 p.m. at the Ticonderoga Community Building auditorium (DMV entrance). For more information call 585-6454 or come to a class.

North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. These activities continue to be the primary source of funding for conservation efforts in North America. Through a built-in excise tax on all hunting, angling and shooting sports equipment, and the sale of sporting licenses, hunters and anglers have generated more than $10 billion toward wildlife conservation since 1937.

Although conservation efforts have traditionally focused on game species, non-hunted species reap the rewards as well. The vast wetlands that have been protected for ducks, the forests saved for deer and the grasslands for pheasants have helped to save countless non-game species from peril.

Hunters and anglers have invested billions in wildlife and its future. They understand conservation and the vital role sportsmen play.

Often, sportsmen get a bad rap due to the actions of a tiny minority of unethical or irresponsible hunters. Many of the bird species that were once endangered by market hunters, were eventually saved by sportsman’s dollars.

Birders can hunt their prey ‘with opera glasses’ today, because sportsmen understand and appreciate the intrinsic value of all species, not just the “game.”

The Most Dangerous Animal in North America

It is hard to believe that two of the most dangerous animals in the United States can appear to be so innocent.

Photo by Joe Hacket

The months of October and November are peak times for deer-car collisions. Currently, there are over one million collisions between deer and automobiles in the United States.

The average cost of damage caused by these deer encounters went up by over 2 percent last year, to $3,171 per occasion.

Annually, about 150 deer/car collisions result in fatalities to the driver or passengers. Additionally, over 10,000 people are seriously injured in these accidents and over one billion dollars in damage occurs.

Not only are whitetail deer the most hunted animal in North America, they are also the most dangerous and deadliest species of wildlife in the country. Encounters with whitetails result in more fatalities annually, than all of the run-ins with snakes, wolves, bears, scorpion, American Bison, alligators, coyotes, spiders, sharks and mountain lions, combined! Bambi is only cute, until she bounces off the front fender.

I write this letter in support of the re-election of Joseph A. Provoncha as Essex County Clerk.

For 22 years I had the privilege and honor of serving as a NYS Supreme Court Justice, retiring in the year 2000 and returning to private practice.

He has done so in a highly professional manner, ensuring that everyone is served with courtesy and in a timely manner. His willingness to assist those in their need of services at the Essex County Clerk’s Office is legendary.

For the last eight years, I have served as Confidential Law Clerk to the Honorable Stephen A. Ferradino, Justice of the State Supreme Court. My legal education includes training to be a certified mediator.

The Independent Judicial Election Qualification Commission for the Fourth Judicial District has found me qualified for election to the Judicial Office of Supreme Court.

I have experience, knowledge and demeanor to perform the duties of a New York State Supreme Court Judge. I will apply sound legal principles, honesty and integrity to this position. Being tough but fair and having the courage to make very difficult decisions, with common sense and compassion, is the hallmark of a good judge.

4th Judicial District: Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Fulton, Hamilton, Montgomery, St. Lawrence, Saratoga, Schenectady, Warren and Washington Counties

As a long term resident of Saratoga County with deep family roots in this area, I am well acquainted with the concerns and issues confronting my neighbors and fellow citizens.

Vote for the experienced candidate - Robert J. Chauvin for New York State Supreme Court Judge on November 8th, 2011

I possess over 30 years of relevant judicial and business experience. I am experienced, qualified and ready to serve I respectfully ask for your vote November 8th. Voters will select three candidates for the State Supreme Court’s Fourth Judicial District. Remember, when you pick three, start with me!

I write this letter in support of the re-election of Supreme Court Justice John Lahtinen and the election of Attorney Ann Crowell and Attorney Robert Chauvin as Supreme Court Justices for the Fourth Judicial District.

Judge Lahtinen is no stranger to our area. He was born and raised in Port Henry. In 1999 he was appointed and thereafter elected as a Supreme Court Judge. In 2000 he was appointed by the Governor to join our Appellate Division, Third Department, as an Associate Justice, where he has served with distinction for the past 11 years. Judge Lahtinen’s judicial opinions have helped to shape the laws of this state. When a judge exhibits exceptional dedication, skill and commitment to the law as Judge Lahtinen has and will, we should preserve that judge’s status for as long as possible.

Attorney Ann Crowell and Attorney Robert Chauvin, based on my personal knowledge, are each highly qualified candidates for election to be Supreme Court Justices. Each of them seek the election from the County of Saratoga where the vacancies occur.

Attorney Crowell is the first woman to be nominated for the office of Supreme Court Justice in the history of the Fourth Judicial District. For the past 11 years, she has served as the Law Clerk of Supreme Court Justice Hon. Steven Ferandino. A law clerk serves to assist a judge in legal research and in writing legal decisions. A clerkship serves as a great background to any attorney seeking election as a judge.

Attorney Robert Chauvin has a background of experience, knowledge and demeanor to perform the duties of a Supreme Court Justice.

Justice John Lahtinen, Attorney Ann Crowell and Attorney Robert Chauvin have been nominated by both the Republican Party and Conservative Party Judicial Nominating Committees for the Fourth Judicial District. I endorse all three candidates for election without reservation.

Please support these three candidates on election day, November 8, 2011.

Dominick J. Viscardi, Supreme Court Justice (Ret.)
