ELIZABETHTOWN — It appears that politics do indeed make for strange bedfellows as a majority of Essex County Republican supervisors are backing a Democrat for the soon-toTom be vacant Scozzafava board of supervisors chairmanship, while the Democrats have thrown their support behind a highprofile Republican. The term of current board Chairwoman Cathy Moses expires Jan. Randy 1, and the Douglas board will convene to elect a new leader at the annual organizational meeting on Jan. 4. Competing for the seat, which comes with a hefty pay raise, are Democratic Jay Supervisor Randy Douglas and the oft-vocal Republican Moriah Supervisor, Tom Scozzafava. Following Scozzafava’s vocal support of District Attorney Julie Garcia in her failed reelection bid against GOP nominee Kristy

SCHROON LAKE — The current economic situation has had a huge impact on the number of families seeking assistance, as well as limiting those able to give this holiday season. As children’s heads are filled with thoughts of Santa, the elves at Christmas Express are very busy and extremely concerned about how they will fulfill all those Christmas wishes that create holiday memories and magic. As in numerous years past, toys are gathered from within the community for approximately 50 local children, ranging from infants to 13 years old and then those special items are delivered to each household. “The most touching part of this entire process hits you when your read the ‘wishes,’ the requests are for items like warm boots or a baby doll, they are so sweet and simple, not extravagant, it touches your heart,” explained supporter Patti Mehm. The Wish Trees are set up in The Towne Store and Grand Union. The children have designated specific items that they are hoping to receive this year – which are listed on each “Wish.” After taking a “Wish” each unwrapped gift should be

Local man struck by vehicle while jogging and killed FIRST Ti PD: ‘This is still an open investigation’ By John Gereau
johng@denpubs.com
TICONDEROGA — A well-known Ticonderoga native was struck and killed early in the morning Dec. 2 as he jogged along the roadside near the intersection of Route 22 and Shore Airport
Road, police said. Police identified the man as Anthony “Tony” Morette, a popular local runner and community activist. Morette, 60, was found lying on the side of the road just after 5 a.m. by three men who were on their way to go hunting. Morette was still
conscious when emergency personnel arrived and able to give a partial description of the truck he said had struck him. He later died of internal injuries at Moses Ludington Hospital. As of press time Dec. 8, Ticonderoga police were still searching for the vehicle that struck Morette. It was

Ticonderoga High School saw this as an opportunity to give back to the town by participating in this program. The FBLA Chapter has adopted Calkins Place and Amherst Avenue. These streets were chosen because
they are located around the high school. Students thought that keeping the streets clean around the school would set a good example. The first clean up was on Saturday Oct. 24 with 10 stu-

In addition to cleaning their adopted streets the group cleaned up Lake George Avenue from Montcalm to Calkins.

Morette From page 1 to avoid having tunnel vision.” Most importantly, the department is seeking the public’s assistance in the case, he stressed. “We have several leads, but the public’s assistance is needed,” he said. “We’re asking anyone who may have been in the area that morning to please contact us. This is still an open investigation.” Johns urged anyone with information about the incident to contact the Ti PD at 585-2205. Morette was an electrician by trade and was known for offering the use of his bucket truck to the town to hang holiday lights and banners for local events. Morette, who was a lifelong resident of Ticonderoga, was the former assistant fire chief there and Essex County fire inspector. He also was very active as a volunteer for Fort Ti and was known locally for his devotion to Mount Defiance where he would create a holiday light display each year that could be seen for miles. Morette leaves behind his longtime wife, Susan, a daughter Kristi of New Jersey and a sister, Ann.

Ti Quiz Bowl Team off to a stellar start TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Sentinel Quiz Bowl team is off to an excellent start again this year in the Post Star Academic Bowl played in Queensbury. Currently in 3rd place, the Sentinels faced a tough challenge from Corinth on Wednesday, Dec. 2, ultimately winning 310-195. Led by high scorers Ben Chapman and Adriana Clark, the Sentinels had a perfect 60 second round for the second time this season answering 10 questions about inventors and their inventions. In order to sharpen their competitive skills, the Sentinels are also braving the Charlotte-Essex ferry on Friday, Dec. 2 to play in the PHAT III So. Burlington quiz tournament hosted by the Vermont NEA. The Sentinels will field two teams this year and hope to once again be competitive against the much larger Vermont and New York teams who attend. Last year the Sentinels were the “small schools” champions of the tournament. Thanks to the continued generosity of International Paper Company of Ticonderoga, the Quiz Bowl team has team tshirts this year with the team’s “clawing brain” logo designed by last year ’s co-captain David Mallon. This year ’s team is lead by Captain Ben Chapman and veteran players Adriana Clark, Tory Walters, Andrew terSteege, Alan Zhang, and Christy Faucher. New members of the Sentinel team include Jon Ferguson, Anita Zhang, Michael Fuller, Keeley Andrusko, Ashley Costello, Riley Chapman, Miranda terSteege, Michael Barber, Hannah Herbst, Hayli Carlson and Markie teRiele. Ms. Bagneschi has volunteered again this year to both chaperone tournaments and support the team during matches.

New zoning laws will reflect downtown revitalization effort TICONDEROGA — Revisions being considered to Ticonderoga’s zoning law are intended to support Ticonderoga’s downtown revitalization efforts.

HOW TO REACH
plan was to promote downtown revitalization. Proposed changes will make it easier to open a business within an existing downtown building. The permitting and review process for new or expanding downtown businesses will be streamlined to encourage appropriate businesses to seek a downtown location. Guidelines will help ensure than any new buildings construction or existing buildings substantially renovated are compatible with the historic character of the downtown business district. Standards are being revised so that new buildings will be built at the edge of the sidewalk with parking to the side or rear to maintain downtown’s pedestrian character and scale. The revised regulations will allow for small businesses, like the Corner Market or Ti Pi, and home businesses in the residential neighborhoods of the former village. Most nonresidential uses will be reviewed by the Planning Board, so neighbors will have an opportunity to comment on proposed businesses and will be protected from adverse impacts. The Zoning Revision Committee will be working on the
law into spring 2010, and will prepare drafts of each section for public review and comment. To access drafts and other information, follow the Zoning and Planning Board link on the town website,www.townofticonderoga.org, or contact Brandy Saxton at 546-7470. A public information meeting on the zoning districts and map has been scheduled for 7 p.m., Jan. 11 at the Ticonderoga Community Building auditorium. This project is funded by a Quality Communities grant from the New York State Department of State.

Food pantry benefits Residents unite over from recent events bridge closure To the Times of Ti: The Ticonderoga Food Pantry has had two very successful events benefiting our work. The Scouts, of Pack 72 and Cub Scouts 72 held a food drive recently. The volunteers of the Food Pantry wish to express sincere appreciation to the Scout members for their hard work in less than ideal weather. We thank their dedicated leaders and Wal Mart for this event. The CP Rail Holiday Train arrived to help begin the Holiday Season, on November 30th. CP Rail has been doing this event for many years, reminding everyone that there is hunger in our midst. The brightly lighted train is an awesome sight indeed. This year the event's location needed to change due to the bridge closure. The new plan worked smoothly thanks to the support and planning of Ticonderoga Town: Supervisor, Board, Police Department, Highway Department, as well as the School Board and Fort Ticonderoga. A special Thanks to CP Rail for including Ticonderoga on their list of stops. International Paper Company assisted the event and all help is sincerely appreciated. We appreciate the support we continue to receive from members of the community! On behalf of the Food Pantry volunteers! Thank you one and all for these outstanding events. Margaret H.

To the Times of Ti: I wanted to share with your readers the impact that on, small community can have if they dare to think big! In this day of financial crises and "Bridge woes," it might be easy to wring your hands and say, "woe is me!" After all, what"can I do when the representative bodies of two States as well the the National Legislatures are unable to affect any type of "quick fix" for the concerns we, in the North Country share. Sir, I'm here to tell you, the folks of Crown Point have joined together and recognized what change prayer and collective efforts makes. On Wednesday, Nov. 25, the major businesses including Frenchman's Restaurant, Crown Point Citgo, Crown Point Discount, Gunnison's, Maple Ridge Restaurant, the "girls" at the United States Post Office, Crown Point Telephone Company, Champlain Bank, as well as the faith communities of Crown Point United Methodist Church, Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church and First Congregational Church dug into their budgets, their memberships, and working staff to ensure that Crown Point residents who could not afford a meal or those who were eating alone were able to celebrate Thanksgiving in a "traditional" manner. I am proud to tell you that each business and faith community made it possible for more than 150 residents were fed. Further, there were close to 100 meals delivered to the homes of shut-ins or enjoyed in the dinning room of Frenchman's Restaurant. Those who ate "in", were served with dignity by staff who donated their considerable time and skill. I can also tell you that this diverse collection of individuals and groups joined together, in seamless manner to prepare, cook, and deliver this gracious meal. These selfless efforts ensured that the needs of this community were met. Mr. Editor, don't ever believe the person who states that "community spirit" is dead. I am proud to be part of a community that has proof positive that it is alive and well. Rev. David C. Hirtle Pastor, First Congregational Church Crown Point, NY 12928
Live and let live To the Times of Ti: The town we live in is very close knit everyone knows everybody. Some concerned citizens in this town in which we reside in have made it known that we shouldnt be doing certain activities in our back yard/ on our property, that can be considered endangering our children & granchildren, even if they are not. Concerned citizens as they are , we have lived in this town for many years.We never have /never will harm any child/children that resides here. We are law abiding citizens, we've raised our children to be honest,loving, compassionate and truthful. We've done our best to get along with our neighbors. All we ask in return is when you have a problem with us, please come to us first, so that we may work it out. There isn't anything gained by going behind our backs to solve the problem, that just makes a bigger one!! Where is the freedom of speech these days? We have tried to talk things out with this one citizen.My husband is a disabled veteran, he's felt that his freedom of speech has been compromised, we both feel that we have to “walk on egg shells” while in our own yard, and be in fear that this one concerned citizen will report what next on us? Joyce & Kevin Anderson, Crown Point
Veteran honored To the Times of Ti: This letter is to thank Mr. Keith Barber and the girls and boys of the 5th grade elementary school. We, the following veterans were invited on Nov. 10 to give a presentation about veterans in honor of veterans day. There was Mrs. Nancy Pauquette, past qtr. of the VFW post 146, Mr. Charles Messier, present Commander of American Legion post 224, Mr. Tom Provancha, chairman of VFW post 146, camping are and myself, Gusher Smith, adjutant of VFW post 146. Mr. Barber started things off with a video of a little girl and her grandfather telling her what it meant to be a veteran. It was really informative. Then each veteran told their story of what they did in the service. Nancy was first up and told what she did in Desert Storm. Charlie was next and he too was in Desert Storm and Quoit. Then came Tom, he was in the air force during the Viet Nam conflict. I came last and went way back to 1942 and WW2. Mr Barber stopped at my house a short time late and gave me a pack of “Thank You” letters from each girl and boy who attended that session. It made me feel so good that i just had to let the public know about this event. Charles, “Gusher” Smith Adj. VFW post 146, Ticonderoga

How ‘Catalina’ coupons can help you save
I
f you’ve shopped for groceries at a large supermarket, you’ve undoubtedly noticed the long “string” of coupons that print out at the register along with your store receipt. These checkout coupons, or “Catalinas,” as coupon shoppers commonly call them, are incredibly valuable to coupon shoppers. (Catalina Marketing Corp. introduced the computer system that issues checkout coupons about 25 years ago, although the company says it’s not sure how or why shoppers picked up on the name.) If you’ve ever taken a look at the kinds of Catalinas that print after your shopping trip, you’ll notice that they typically fall into three categories: money-off coupons for specific products, coupons for money off on your next shopping trip or alerts of upcoming sales. A shopper receives money-off Catalinas when the UPCs of certain items in their cart are scanned at checkout time. The register “sees” a certain brand or type of item you are purchasing and spits out a Catalina that offers a discount on a competing item that you may consider purchasing in the future. Last week I purchased a certain brand of apple juice and received a $1 checkout coupon for a competitor ’s brand of apple juice. You may even receive a coupon for a free item! Just in the last month, I bought one variety of pet treats and received a coupon for a free package of treats from a competing brand. A couple of weeks later, I bought one brand of yogurt and received a Catalina for a free 4-pack of a competitor ’s brand of yogurt. The second type of Catalina is issued during a general money-back sale at the store. You may see a store ad that states, “Buy any 10 products in this group and receive $10 off your next order.” That $10 sav-
ings comes in the form of a checkout coupon good for $10 off your next shopping trip. The discount is good on anything in the store. It’s just like having $10 cash to spend. The third kind of checkout coupon is an “alert.” These coupon alerts aren’t technically coupons, since they don’t offer money off anything in particular, but they do contain details of an upBy Jill Cataldo coming sale at the store. These “secret” sales are typically not advertised in any of the store’s flyers, so these checkout alerts are the only way shoppers can get in on the savings. Unfortunately, many shoppers consistently overlook the value of checkout coupons. It’s true that carrying a long, somewhat cumbersome ticker-tape of Catalinas with your receipt as you exit the store can be a mild annoyance. But the value of all three of these varieties of coupon cannot be overstated. They’re all important, and you should save them all. I certainly do! © CTW Features

TICONDEROGA — Ti High School teachers Debbie Breitenbach and Amy Crannell participated in this year ’s Symposium for High School and College English Teachers hosted by Adirondack Community College, entitled “Connecting and Communicating.” The Symposium sessions, including a working lunch, provided extensive opportunities for educators to learn from experts in various aspects of communication on the college level as well as sharing with one another the challenges and successes of strategies used in schools throughout the region. Included in the sessions were a panel discussion in which teachers, professors, high school students, newly minted college students, and recent graduates looked at “Bridging the Expectation Gap” between what we do and think we need to do in high school and what is actually required of students when they get to college. Other sessions dealt with the potential benefits and evils of text messaging, the advantages and pitfalls of on-line college courses, supporting non-traditional students, creative approaches to the study of grammar and motivating senior high school students up to graduation. A piece shared by the ACC staff was an excerpt from Randy Pausch’s The Last Lecture entitled “No Job is Beneath You.” The idea put forward is that good honest work isn’t beneath anyone; everybody earns his/her way up the ladder of success. Both teachers agree that symposia of this kind as well as other conferences offered throughout the year promote ever better instruction, helping to maintain Ticonderoga’s ongoing goals of educational excellence and increasing equity among the students of the community.

CFES conference held in Bolton Landing BOLTON LANDING — Ten Adirondack educators played a key role at the annual CFES (College For Every Student) National Conference in Bolton Landing on Nov. 13 and 14, 2009. The two-day event brought together educators from 125 schools and 50 college partners in 20 states and the District of Columbia. Educators from Peru, Willsboro, Crown Point, Lake Placid, Minerva, and Ticonderoga Central Schools— along with colleagues at Paul Smith’s College, Clinton Community College, and SUNY Plattsburgh— led discussions, panels, and workshops. Dr. Stephen C. Light, Associate Dean of Arts and Science at SUNY Plattsburgh, was recognized for outstanding achievement in creating and sustaining school-and-college partnerships when he received the Mario Peña Award. The award is given to educators who “help CFES develop and expand schoolcollege collaborations thereby increasing college access and success for underserved youth.” CFES President Rick Dalton said the Mario Peña Award was a tribute to Light’s longstanding commitment and hands-on approach: “One thing about a college partnership is, you set it up and that’s all you’ve done. In order to work, these partnerships take constant care and feeding. That’s what Steve has done.”
The other Adirondack educators presenting at the conference were Chris Mazzella of Peru CSD, Laura Eldred of Willsboro CSD, Elaine Dixon of Crown Point CSD, Principal Heidi Kelly of Minerva CSD, Principal Bruce Tubbs of Ticonderoga Middle School, President John Jablonski of Clinton Community College, and President John Mills of Paul
Smith’s College. Former Lake Placid Superintendent Ernie Stretton serves on the CFES Board of Directors and Steve Boyce, formerly of Ticonderoga CSD, is a CFES Program Director. College for Every Student is a national non-profit organization based in Cornwall, VT. Since 1991, CFES has worked with over
100,000 students, and currently serves 132 schools in 20 states and the District of Columbia. Of the 1,600 CFES Scholars who graduated from high school in 2009, 97 percent are now enrolled in college.

Dissolution committee to host public hearing PORT HENRY — The Village of Port Henry/Town of Moriah Dissolution Study Committee will hold its official public hearing on its report and plan for the dissolution of the village on Thursday, Dec. 17 at 7 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus, 4253 Main Street, Port Henry. After presenting various dissolution scenarios to the public at two public meetings in November, and getting feedback from Village and Town board members and community members, the Committee met in early December to develop its proposed Dissolution Plan. The Dec. 17 hearing will be residents’ opportunity to comment on the Dissolution Plan before it is finalized by the Committee and submitted to the Village Board. The committee urges residents of the village and Town to attend the hearing and learn about the service, fiscal and tax implications of the Dissolution Plan. The report and plan are available at www.cgr.org/porthenry. Village Mayor Ernest Guerin noted, “Residents need factual information in order to make an informed decision. We expect the question of dissolution to go to referendum in March 2010.” The Dissolution Study Committee is a joint Village/Town committee that has been conducting the dissolution study since early fall. The Committee has been assisted by the Rochester-based Center for Governmental Research (CGR). The study is funded through a state grant. Following its official public hearing, the Committee will finalize its report and plan and submit them to the Village Board. The board will be responsible for taking the next steps for putting the proposed plan on the March 2010 ballot. If Village voters approve dissolving the Village, dissolution would take effect on December 31, 2011.

County From page 1 Sprague, a discernable rift in the party continues to make things unpredictable in Essex County. “The party is definitely divided after the DA race,” Scozzafava said. “But we need to heal the party or die as individuals.” Chair of the BOS finance committee, Scozzafava has publicly butted heads with county manager Dan Palmer. He noted that according to his count, he has the support of eight or nine supervisors, many of whom are Democrats. There are 18 towns in Essex County and, if his count is accurate, a tie isn’t out of the question. Scozzafava said he has been told by his Republican backers that if a tie were to occur, they would support Douglas. “I knew that I would probably be a long shot when I decided to seek the seat,” Scozzafava said. “I am not good at biting my tongue, so it may be best if I wasn’t seated in that chair.” Democratic Westport Supervisor Dan Connell is joining him in the bid as a candidate for vice-chair, while Douglas has tapped North Elba Supervisor Robi Politi, creating an additional geographic dynamic, pitting supervisors from the county’s west against supervisors from the county’s east. Politi has recently renewed his call for the sale of the county-owned Horace Nye Nursing Home – a $4 million annual expense. For his part, Douglas was recently appointed to the executive committee of the New York State Association of Counties. He is chair of the county transportation sub-committee and was highly involved in the rerouting of the county public transportation system following the closure of the Champlain Bridge. According to Republican St. Armand Supervisor Joyce Morency, the vast majority of GOP support is behind Douglas. “I think it somewhat boils down to the recent election and Tom’s support of Garcia,” Morency said. As of Jan. 1, Republicans will hold a 10 to five edge over Democrats on the 18-member board. In 2002, Scozzafava unsuccessfully challenged Teresa Sayward for the 113th District state Assembly seat, but did however manage to pull the support of several prominent county Republicans. Douglas could not be reached for comment.

12 - TIMES OF TI • CROWN POINT
SATURDAY December 12, 2009
Meetings set to discuss future of CP Bridge TICONDEROGA — State officials will hold a series of meetings today in LaChute Hall on Montcalm Street to receive feedback from the public regarding design plans for the replacement bridge at Crown Point as well as ideas for commemorating the historic bridge that will soon be demolished. Three identical public meetings, each including a brief formal presentation followed by time for general questions and answers and time for the public to view displays will be held on Saturday, Dec. 12 at 9:30 a.m., 12:30 and 3:30 p.m. The purpose of these “open house” sessions will be to provide an opportunity to receive further input from interested parties. The goal, according to state Department of Transportation officials, is to assure that the new bridge is built as quickly as possible, and that it is aesthetically compatible within the context of the community and the environment. During the presentations, project team members will review the design criteria for the new bridge and the feasible bridge types available for consideration. Attendees will be asked for input regarding features that should be included in the design, such as sidewalks, bicycle lanes, lighting and materials used, as well as the style of the new bridge. Options for commemorating the historic bridge will also be presented and discussed. The meeting will also address demolition plans for the existing bridge including when and how it is likely to occur. Staff from both NYSDOT and Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) will be available following the formal portion of each meeting to discuss this information.
In addition to being open to the general public, “consulting parties” as defined under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act who are interested in participating in the Lake Champlain Bridge replacement project are invited to attend the public meeting and to submit a written request to become a consulting party to both NYSDOT and VTrans at R01-LakeChamplainBridge@dot.state.ny.us. Interested parties should include information about their experience and a statement explaining why they believe their participation would contribute to a consideration of the project's effects on historic properties. The Lake Champlain Bridge was closed for safety reasons on Oct. 16 after it was discovered that piers supporting the bridge were dangerously deteriorated. The bridge provided a vital link for employment, commerce and medical care between Crown Point, New York, and Addison, Vermont. If the meeting needs to be postponed due to inclement weather, an announcement will be posted online at www.nysdot.gov/lakechamplainbridge and will be emailed to those who have signed up for updates on the Lake Champlain Bridge. If this becomes the case, the meeting would be held on Sunday, Dec. 13, at the same time and place. According to the state DOT, this is an inclusive process, and serious consideration will be given to the input received from those who live in the area and depend on the connection between Vermont and New York State. In addition to receiving feedback from those who attend the public meetings, comments may be sent to NYSDOT via the project e-mail account at R01LakeChamplainBridge@dot.state.ny.us.
Crown Point Central School celebrated spirit week recently. It was celebrated with theme days for each day of the week. Tuesday was Twin Day or Impersonate a Teacher Day, Wednesday was Grade Color Day, Thursday was Black and White Day with a Pep Rally in the afternoon, and lastly Friday was Hat Day. Shown above is Keegan Choffat and John Eric Budwick doing a skit during the Pep Rally featuring the proper way to recycle.

Arthur A. Clarke May 25, 1940 - November 28, 2009 MINEVILLE — Arthur A. Clarke, better known by his family and friends as Art, went to the House of the Lord on November 28, 2009 surrounded by family, after a long courageous battle with cancer. Art was born on May 25, 1940 in Crown Point, NY, the son of the late Allen and Lillian Clarke. Art was married to Bonita Vaughan on June 26, 1999, a warm sunny day in the center of her beautiful flower garden with family and friends in attendance helping to celebrate their event. Art was a very talented automotive mechanic and enjoyed working on cars in his garage and was known best by his many “car buffs” as “Mr. Chevy.” Afavorite saying among his many clients and friends was: “If the car don’t start, call Art Clarke,” and they did. He also built his own cars and motors in the 1960’s as he was an avid racer at the North Hudson Drag Strip, where he won many trophies. Besides his wife Bonnie, Art is survived by his sons Robin Clarke and wife Tina of Westport, NY, Chris Clarke of Texas, Dale Clarke and wife Elizabeth of Redford, NY a daughter Becky Mjelde of Portland, OR. Brothers James Clarke of Williamstown, NJ and Randy Clarke of Crown Point, NY. His mother-in-law Anita Farnsworth of Westport, NY.

Sisters-in-law Debbie Dickinson of North Hero, VT and Donna Towne of Berlin, VT. Grandchildren, Chase and Josh Clarke, Brendan and Tyler Clarke, Courtney and Christopher Clarke, Kaitlyn Clarke, and Liam Mjelde, several nieces and nephews. At his request there will be no calling hours. Funeral services were held 2 p.m. Tuesday December 1, at the Moriah Methodist Church with burial following in the South Moriah Cemetery. Friends and family celebrated Art’s life at the Moriah Firehouse immediately after. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Art may be made to the American Cancer Society or to the Moriah Ambulance Fund.

John "Jack" Alson Broadhead
Michael C. Manning
July 19, 1926 - December 6, 2009
March 4, 1948 - December 1, 2009
TICONDEROGA — John "Jack" Alson Broadhead, 83, of Ticonderoga, passed away at his home on Sunday, December 6, 2009. Jack was born in Brooklyn, NY on July 19, 1926, the son of David Taylor Broadhead and Alene Johnson Broadhead. Jack spent his childhood years in Jamestown, NY and then later in Wellsville, NY. In 1943, Jack enlisted in the Army Air Corps while still a high school student. He was called to active duty in January of 1945. When peace was declared in July of 1945, Jack continued to serve his country stateside. He graduated from Wellsville High School, class of 1946 and enrolled in Sampson College. While attending Sampson, Jack met Peggy Raynor, a student at nearby Hobart and William Smith College (Geneva, NY). They later eloped and were married in February of 1948. After he and Peg moved to Rochester, NY, Jack began a management training program with F.W. Woolworth Co. In 1953, Jack, Peg and their young daughter, Cynthia moved to Ticonderoga, where Jack managed the Woolworth Store. They loved the scenic beauty of the Adirondacks and decided to make Ticonderoga their permanent home. Jack ended up changing careers, and went to work for International Paper Co. as part of the accounting department. Jack spent many active years serving his community. He served as an Elder in the Congregational Church, was a member of the EMA Board, a long-time member of the Board of Directors at the Ticonderoga Country Club, and also served as commissioner and treasurer of the Ticonderoga Fire Department. His greatest love was playing tennis; he taught tennis at North Country Community College for many years. Jack was also an avid reader and Civil War buff. He excelled at swimming, and enjoyed canoeing, hunting, and hiking in his beloved Adirondack Mountains. Jack's retirement from International Paper Co. in 1985 coincided with the loss of his dearly loved dachshunds, Tristan and Isolde. His co-workers banded together and presented him with a beautiful daschshund puppy as a retirement gift. "Frank" became Jack's constant companion through many of his retirement years. Jack is survived by Peg Broadhead, his wife of 61 years; his daughter Cynthia Ellison of Brandenburg, KY; and his granddaughter, Karris Villalba of Nashville, TN. During his long illness, Jack received excellent and loving care at home from High Peaks Hospice. His family has expressed their wish that anyone who wants to remember Jack in a special way, send a gift in memory to High Peaks Hospice, P.O. Box 192, Port Henry, NY 12974. At Jack's request, there will be no calling hours or services. Arrangements are under the direction of the Wilcox & Regan Funeral Home of Ticonderoga.

Grace E. "Betty" (Densmore) Braisted August 25, 1921 - December 3, 2009 SILVER BAY — Grace E. "Betty" (Densmore) Braisted, 88, of Silver Bay, passed away on Thursday, December 3, 2009 at the Heritage Commons Nursing Home in Ticonderoga. She was born on August 25, 1921 at the Valley View Farm in South Ticonderoga, the daughter of Westill and Louise Shepard Densmore. Betty enjoyed her life on the farm, where she lived until she graduated from Ticonderoga High School in 1938. For a time after graduating from high school, inspired by her brother's love of flying and possibly by the pilots of W.W. II, they both took flying lessons, bought a small plane, and made solo flights out of the Westport Airfield. Unfortunately, their plane was stolen and crashed, and that was the end of her flying adventures. During W.W. II, Betty was trained by the U.S. Weather Bureau and was stationed in Pittsburgh and Albany. After the war, in 1946, she married John M. Braisted of Silver Bay, who pre-deceased her in 2005. She was a long-time member of the First United Methodist Church of Ticonderoga and enjoyed singing in the choir and playing in the handbell choir. Betty retired from the U.S. Postal Service in 1985, after many years of service at the Silver Bay Post Office, working with her long-time friend and postmaster, Ethel Andrus. All her life, Betty loved music, especially barbershop singing, and was active in several area choruses and quartets, including chapters in Ticonderoga, Plattsburgh and Glens Falls, and traveled with her choruses to many regional competitions. Fond memories include family trips in the fall to Cape Cod and Maine, some trips to Florida, and time spent at the family dock in Oneida Bay in the summers. But by far, her greatest joy was spending time with her grandchildren as they grew from infants to young adults, and their visits always continued to brighten her days. Survivors include two daughters, Kathryn L. Santaniello and her husband, Sal of Silver Bay and their children, Ted, SJ, and Teri and their families; and Mary A. Kaier and her husband, Bill of Queensbury and their children, Jeff and Andy; and one son James W. Braisted and his wife, Erica of Silver Bay and their children, Tasha, Treva, Toni and Tara and families. She is also survived by her brother, Floyd Densmore of Ticonderoga and his children, Alan, Warren, Gray and Peggy and their families. Relatives and friends called Sunday, December 6, 2009 from 2 - 4 p.m. at the Wilcox & Regan Funeral Home, 11 Algonkin St., Ticonderoga. A Funeral Service took place on Monday, December 7, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. at the First United Methodist Church of Ticonderoga, with the Rev. Scott Tyler, Pastor, officiating. Interment followed at the family plot of the Valley View Cemetery in South Ticonderoga. Donations in Betty's name may be made to Hague Fire Department, Hague, NY 12836.

For many retailers hoping to end the year with a profit, the season “officially” starts on what is known as Black Friday. The Friday following Thanksgiving is called Black Friday in reference to the fact that many retailers operate in the “red” all year and thanks to this most important holiday shopping day, this is when they finally start to turn a profit.

Economically speaking, doing this helps to keep businesses open and people employed. These local businesses support local charities and non-profit organizations. Business taxes help support local governments. Don’t fight huge crowds at the mall and spend hours in lines that never seem to end searching for something that has just been sold out. Doesn’t it make more sense, take less time and save lots of money (in gas alone), to shop your local merchants? This year relax, knowing you’ve saved money, time and your sanity, and find the perfect present in your own home town!
This is why shopping locally is so important for the holiday season.

WPTZ to host Toys for Kids
Ti thrift shop sets hours
PLATTSBURGH — NewsChannel 5 has partnered once again with the Marine Corps League and the Salvation Army for its tenth annual “Toys for Kids” campaign. This year ’s campaign is sponsored by Citizen’s Bank and Della Auto Group. Now through Christmas Eve, viewers are invited to drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the station’s locations in Colchester and Plattsburgh during regular business hours Monday through Friday. Alternatively, toys may be placed in one of the many red toy collection barrels located at businesses and organizations all across the region. NewsChannel 5 Chief Meteorologist Tom Messner is again spokesperson for the campaign. A list of barrel locations for those who would like to donate toys can be found on the station’s website, wptz.com. Application information for people who need toy/gift assistance is also available on the site.
TICONDEROGA — The Thrift Shop at the Ticonderoga First United Methodist Church will be open for shoppers on a special day and time, Friday Dec. 18 from 3 - 7 p.m. “Due to many requests from folks who are not able to come to the shop on Wednesdays and Saturdays when the shop is regularly open from 9 to 2, we’ve added this opportunity for evening holiday shopping,” said Betty Rettig, Thrift Shop Committee chairperson. “Many great bargains can be found year round and we’re hoping to further meet the needs of the community by possibly offering evening hours on a regular basis in the future.” Gift certificates are also available at The Thrift Shop, which is located in the lower level of the fellowship wing of the church. The Methodist church and thrift shop are located at 1045 Wicker Street, up the hill from the hospital entrance in Ticonderoga. Staffed by volunteers, the Thrift Shop is an Outreach Ministry of the Church. Call the shop at 585-2242 or the church office at 585-7995 for more information.

Event planned for local children
Hours set for Second Blessings
PUTNAM — Parents who wish to do some last minute Christmas shopping are encouraged to bring their children, ages 5-12, to the Putnam United Presbyterian Church for a fun filled morning of Christmas crafts, movies, scavenger hunt, stories, music, and gingerbread house decorating on Saturday, Dec. 19, from 9 a.m. - noon. Whatever the children make, they will take home, including a self-decorated gingerbread house. Here's a chance for a few uninterrupted hours before Christmas, and for children and their friends to enjoy a hands-on Christmas season morning. The church is located at 365 Co. Rt. 3 off Rt. 22 in Putnam. Call the church at 547-8378 or Silke Huntington, 499-1779 for more information.
TICONDEROGA — Children are invited to have breakfast with Santa on Sunday, Dec. 20 from 7-10:30 a.m. at the Ticonderoga Elks Lodge. Come have a delicious buffet breakfast and meet Santa. Donations greatfully accepted. Sponsored by Ticonderoga Elks Lodge, Boy Scout Troop 72, and Cub Scout Pack 72.
CROWN POINT — The all-volunteer thrift shop, Second Blessings, sponsored by First Congregational Church of Crown Point and staffed by volunteers from across the community closed for the winter months. Second Blessings is housed in the General John Hammond Chapel located on the corners of Creek Road and NYS Route 9N/22. The Building, constructed of beautiful red brick, was the private home of the Hammond's and constructed in the early 1820's. Hence, there is little to no insulation throughout the building. While there is an oil burner, it's efficiency is limited. As an aside, the Kosmider family has all-but completed renovating the beautiful Auditorium located on the second floor of this historic building. Once used as a public meeting place, it will again be available following it's completion! Due to the excellent supply of clothing: winter coats, sweaters and other warm clothing, plans are in the the making to open the doors on Tuesday, Dec. 15 between 10-3 p.m. to allow our patrons one last opportunity to take home needed items. During the winter months, Second Blessings will be available to answer any call during an emergency by calling the Church at 597-3398.

Holiday on a budget This year, most families are affected by economic setbacks and need to cut back on holiday spending. Ways to maximize the holiday spirit without spending a bundle: Go on a “home-cation”: This is an economical alternative to going on a vacation. If you like to camp, set up tents or sleeping bags in the backyard or in one room of the house and read stories with flashlights. Turn your kitchen into a restaurant and let the kids design a menu and order from it, or play at being chef and server. Connect by computer: “Visit” for free with friends and family. All you need is an internet connection and a webcam, a small video camera that attaches to your computer. It videos you, so that your friend at the other end of the line can see you on his computer screen. Webcams cost as little as $20. Sign up for Skype, a free service that lets you talk over the internet using your computer’s speakers instead of a phone. To sign up for Skype, visit www.skype.com. Send e-mail holiday greetings: Save on cards and postage by e-mailing family and friends a holiday message. Create personal holiday decorations: Create a holiday feel for your home by trimming the tree and windows with art created by the family. Host a potluck party: While you may be used to cooking for the entire family and friends, ask each guest to bring a dish to your party or holiday meal. (Taken from Grand-Parenting News)
What is respite? More than any other service respite is what family caregivers want most. The primary purpose of respite care is to provide relief from the extraordinary and intensive demands of ongoing care to someone with special needs, thereby strengthening the family’s ability to provide care. Respite care is planned and proactive. Respite means taking a break before extreme stress and crisis occurs. A respite can be as simple as lying on the couch with the lights dimmed listening to your favorite music, especially if you do it on a regular basis. What you do on a respite break, regardless of its length, is up to you. It has to meet your needs, break your tensions, and renew your spirit. It needs to be the right medicine to cure, or at least ameliorate your current stress. It needs to be for you, precisely because you do so much for others and because you deserve it. Next time you feel guilty for even thinking about taking a break, remember it is only partially for your benefit. Your loved one will reap a great deal of the benefit as well. Respite is the primary mechanism you have as a family caregiver to refill your tank and thereby keep on going. (Information revised from National Family Caregivers Association)

OUTDOORS • TIMES OF TI - 25
2009 season grinds to a halt The snow arrives ... finally! E arly in the week, the region finally received the first significant snowfall of the season. Of course, the snow didn't arrive until after the hunting season had ended. This year ’s season proved to be one of the warmest and snow-free hunting seasons on record. Without snow cover for tracking, the odds of seeing deer fall firmly on the side of the whitetail. It was a long season and I'm glad it's over. Now, I hope to focus my attention on those plump, ruffed grouse that were so evident when I had a deer rifle in my hand. For the sake of the local economy, I hope the current snowstorm is significant enough to jump start the ski season. If not, it appears that there’s more on the way. It’s amazing the different scene that a few inches of fresh snow can produce. A carpet of snow can instantly obliterate the accumulated debris of a season, with a fresh, clean, white scene.
Cougars in the news North Country Public Radio (NCPR) recently aired a two part series on mountain lions in the North Country. The program revealed a growing number of mountain lion sightings that have been reported across the region. The NCPR report also detailed an alleged mountain lion attack on horses that occurred this summer in St. Lawrence County this past summer. I have visited the topic of mountain lions in previous articles and I continue to receive numerous emails, letters and phone calls regarding such sightings. Although I have never witnessed a lion, I firmly believe what others have reported, including my own siblings. Known as a Ghost cat, Catamount, Puma, Painter, Panther, Mountain lion or Cougar, the nation's largest cat was at one time distributed across the North American continent from southern Canada to the tip of South America. However, there has been no solid evidence of its existence in the Adirondacks since the last bounty was paid in the late 1880’s. Oddly, the last cougar in New York was taken in St. Lawrence County, where the towns of Degrasse, Russell and Canton remain a hot bed of most recent sightings.
Current cougar knowledge Most outdoor travelers recognize and understand the restorative aspects of nature. It’s a fact that is evident when one witnesses how rapidly a field returns to forest. Nature works quickly. Consider the fact that moose have repatriated the park with a viable breeding population in less than 30 years and accomplished the feat without any human intervention. They came back on their own when the time, and the land, was ripe. Beaver, considered extinct at the turn of the century, were restocked in the Adirondacks beginning in the early 1900’s. By the early 1920’s, beaver were so plentiful that the state was forced to reopen a trapping season on the animal. Currently, the park’s beaver population is considerable. In fact, wildlife biologists believe it was the beaver that actually brought back the moose, through the creation of new wetland habitat. In the west, mountain lion populations have already started to boom, with states like Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado declaring the cats completely recovered. Officials believe that changes in habitat are responsible for cougar returning to Northwest Kansas, Minnesota, Michigan, South Carolina, Tennessee and Iowa. A population of nearly 500 cats is believed to inhabit southern Ontario’s Algonquin Park. There have also been sightings reported in Vermont, New Brunswick, Quebec, Maine and Massachusetts. Some believe that the slow reappearance of the animals in the east could be the movements of these large ranging cats. Increased protection of wild lands and reduced human hunting pressure may have helped cougar and other predators by protecting the animals and the prey they eat. “Nationwide, there's obviously a wildlife population expansion that's occurring,” explained an official with the Kansas Department of Wildlife, “In the prairie and Midwest, predators like black bears, wolves, and bobcats are beginning to return to spots where they haven't been seen in years. While most news about the environment may be of doom and gloom, I think the cougar is a real wildlife success story.”
someone would eventually discover a roadkilled cat. Others chalk the sightings up to a case of mistaken identity or released cats. The released cat theory is highly credible. The United States has a huge, underground market for exotic cats, such as African lions, tigers and even mountain lions. While cute at a young age, these cats become increasingly aggressive and dominant. Even after owners have them declawed, they are still dangerous animals. Tired of the liabilities of owning a dangerous cat, and no longer able to afford the 8-10 pounds of meat the cats require daily, it’s understandable that an owner can come to release a pet into the wild. The most farfetched, yet commonly reported mountain lion story is the theory that the state, with the knowledge and/or assistance of various environmental groups, has been secretly releasing mountain lions and/or wolves across the park for many years. How, why or with what funds the groups have accomplished such a secret feat has never been fully explained to me. In the story, the ‘Men in Black’ now wear green and never tell anybody what they’re up to. Witnesses claim that “state officials,” (usually a local Environmental Conservation Officer) secretly take a microchip out of the dead cat and swear the witnesses to silence. If this is the case, we better bundle our children and lock the door whenever they come by in that spaceship with flashing lights. Released animals, never having fended for themselves in the wild, often show little fear of humans. In fact, some believe they will gravitate toward humans looking for food. Possibly, this explains why there seem to be a number of cougar sitings in one location for about a month, then the cats are never again seen. It would be very difficult for a declawed cat to obtain food or to defend itself from dogs. Without claws, a cat couldn’t climb a tree to escape a pack of dogs or coyotes. This may also explain why no one ever finds the remains of cats. As a rule, coyotes generally don’t leave much behind. Despite numerous pockets of wild, remote lands, wildlife officials do not believe that a viable, self-sustaining population of mountain lions exists in the park. Most experts agree that the released pet theory explains the majority of such sightings. However, nature is rarely reliable, it remains in a state of flux. The likelihood of cougars traveling a wildlife corridor from Ontario’s Algonquin Park across the St. Lawrence River into New York, as some have suggested, is quite feasible. However, I still can’t understand how such a cat could travel unseen from the St. Lawrence River to Willsboro or Minerva, Newcomb or McKeever, Thurman or Thendara or any of the two dozen other locations that I’ve relieved reports from. For further information or to report cougar sightings please visit the Eastern cougar Network at www.cougarnet.org/northeast.htm

s you read this we’ll be closing the curtains on another northern zone hunting season. This time of year is always a tad deflating. Cleaning out the fridge at camp. Making ice fishing plans with lifetime hunting chums that rarely materialize. If only hunting season lasted all year ... the world would be a happier place. Except for the deer, of course. Oh, and the hunting camp widows. At least the newly wed ones who still miss you when you’re gone. For my crew this season will be marked by a number of great memories — culminating in one of the largest deer we’ve taken in years. Nevertheless, like most camps, we saw a lot less deer this season, especially does. I’ve heard the same almost universally across the board. Crews that traditionally put a baker ’s dozen on the meat pole hung maybe half that this year. Interestingly, though, state wildlife officials are predicting that the overall take will be up slightly higher than last year. Senior Wildlife Biologist Ed Reed told me that, in spite of the anecdotal evidence, the “reported take to date is actually a little ahead of last year.” “We won’t know how this translates into a calculated take until after the season when we can determine the reporting take,” he said. Reed did say hunters also told him they believe the deer herd seemed smaller this year, and said his personal experience in the woods also followed that trend. But, he made a good point in that the weather definitely didn’t make life easy on us. “The weather was horrible for deer hunting most of the season with no snow cover and warm temperatures. The deer just weren’t moving much, especially during the daylight hours, although I did see quite a bit of buck sign in the woods. Our deer check efforts at meat cutters seemed to be low early in the season, but the past couple of weeks have picked up considerably,” Reed said. A look at local buck contests shows a similar trend, with a majority of the bucks weighed in the past couple weeks, though most are reporting less deer overall. The weather gods did smile on us the final weekend, and most had at least a day with tracking snow — even in the valleys. I know a handful of local camps took advantage. The Euba Mills Outlaws in New Russia, for example, more than doubled their season-long take in one weekend, and, word is some guy from E-town named Rabbit broke a long buckless lull with a big-tined eight. Good stuff. John Gereau is managing editor of Denton Publications and an avid outdoorsmen. He can be reached at johng@denpubs.com.

Cougars in the East Despite such facts, New York state wildlife biologists do not believe that there is a cougar comeback occurring in the state. They cite a lack of physical evidence such as scat, hair, DNA or a carcass. With the growing popularity of ‘Trail Cameras,’ there’s a strong likelihood that somebody would eventually capture a photo of a cat. Likewise, the train of thought goes, if cougars are often being witnessed along the roadways,
Gary Varmette of Crown Point submitted this photograph of a spike horn piebald deer he shot in Saratoga County on the opening day of the southern zone season, Nov. 21. The deer was approximately 70 percent white with patches of brown and grey. Pictured with Varmette is his cousin, Larry Beemis.
Bill Kohen, of Elizabethtown, shot this massive 8-pointer on the last day of the 2009 northern zone season. The buck weighed 182 pounds after being run ragged chasing does and sparring with other bucks for dominance.
