Local woman celebrates 100th birthday.
fred@denpubs.com PORT HENRY Ñ Jamie Velsini is a lucky guy, times two. The Mineville man is getting married Aug. 31 and last week claimed a $1 million state lottery prize. But donÕ t expect his life to change. Ò NothingÕ s going to change,Ó Velsini said at a ceremony June 14 with state lottery offi cials. “I like my life just the way it is. Maybe things will be a bit easier now.Ó Will his wedding be bigger than originally planned? No. Ò WeÕ re not going to change a thing; weÕ re not going to change,Ó said Erin Bigelow, Velsini’s fi ancee. “This will help pay for the wedding, but weÕ re not changing anything.Ó Velsini said heÕ ll use the lottery prize to pay for his wedding and to help family. Velsini won $1 million on the lotteryÕ s Fabulous Fortune scratch-off game. He purchased the ticket at StewartÕ s Shop in Port Henry on May 20. “I stopped at Stewart’s to buy gas,Ó he recalled. Ò When I went inside I saw the lottery ticket and just felt lucky.Ó After returning to his truck, Velsini scratched the ticket.

Supervisor hopes gas pipeline can be extended IP project may bring natural gas to community By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — An alternative energy source may be coming to Ticonderoga. Vermont Gas Systems offi cials have told town leaders a natural gas pipeline planned to serve the International Paper Co. mill in Ti could be extended into other portions of the community.
“Vermont Gas is optimistic about the potential for natural gas expansion beyond IP,” Ti Supervisor Deb Malaney said. “We’re probably talking about 2015.” Donna Wadsworth, IP spokeswoman, said the 2015 date is when IP expects to have natural gas service. It could take several years longer to extend the service to the community, she said. Vermont Gas Systems has plans to extend a natural-gas pipeline from the South Burlington area to provide service to Vergennes and Middlebury, Vt. Those plans, known as the Addison Natural Gas Project, include a pipeline under Lake Champlain to the Ticonderoga mill.

International Paper is planning an $8-10 million conversion of the millÕ s power and recovery boilers to fi re from natural gas. The boilers now use fuel oil. Natural gas would be about 43 percent cheaper than the fuel oil for residential customers. IP gets its fuel at a lower price because it buys such a large volume, Wadsworth said. A $1.75 million state grant through the North Country Regional Economic Development Council will assist the Ticonderoga mill with the conversion to natural gas. CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

any spill of five gallons or more,” Malaney said. “It was a small spill and our highway workers were unaware they had to report it.Ó An anonymous person reported the spill to the DEC and made Ticonderoga officials aware of their obligation to make full disclosure. At that time, several days after the spill, Ticonderoga filed a formal report with the DEC. Ticonderoga could have been fined $37,000 a day for each day the spill was unreported Ñ that could have cost Ticonderoga about $400,000. “It (the fine) could have been a lot worse, so I think the DEC was very fair with us,” Malaney said. “Still, I’m certainly not satisfied this happened. This just can’t happen. The problem is, this is our second spill in three years.Ó A gasoline spill in 2010 cost Ticonderoga $275,000 in fines, remediation of the affected area and corrective actions. In that incident about two gallons of gasoline was spilled on the floor of the Ticonderoga highway garage. The spill was immediately cleaned up. An unnamed community member learned of the accident and reported it to the DEC. That led to a DEC investigation. While investigating the spill, the DEC officer saw an abandoned drain in the garage floor. Further investigation revealed the drain led to a dry well outside the garage. The drain and dry well were installed when the highway garage was built in 1953 and had not been used since the 1970s. Concerned about possible past contamination, DEC ordered Ticonderoga to have soil samples taken from around the highway garage. Those samples revealed pollution. More than 1,000 tons of contaminated soil had to be removed from the highway garage site. Besides removing polluted soil, the highway department was required to connect the floor drain to the public sewer system, upgrade its containment systems, improve its fuel storage area and keep smaller amounts of fuel on site. Those actions and fines cost Ticonderoga $275,000, Malaney said. The latest fine will be paid from the highway department’s equipment fund and will have no impact on the townÕ s 2013 budget, Malaney said.

Mural graces downtown Ticonderoga By Fred Herbst

TICONDEROGA — A blank wall in downtown Ticonderoga is now a mural, depicting the community located between two lakes. The north wall of the Ti Barbershop building on Champlain Avenue is now a work of art thanks to a Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance project. “If you haven’t noticed the mural yet, please take a ride or walk past JayÕ s Sunoco and enjoy the transformation of the Ti Barber Shop building,” said Chattie Van Wert, alliance executive director. “It is the result of a private building

Last June several Ticonderoga buildings were targeted for potential murals and a contest created to attract artists. No artists expressed interest, though. Ò That could have been the end of the story,Ó Van Wert said. “In October 2012, a few interested and determined individuals started coming together to keep the mural vision alive for the side of the Ti Barber Shop building The building owner and town barber, Maryann Andrushko, was ready to work with someone to design an image and paint it on the side of her building.

Graduation advice from the staff here at Denton Publications
From reporter Katherine Clark: Ò Right now is a time of endless possibilities. Which can seem liberating or crushing. Looking back it is hard to imagine that my classmates and I at 18 and younger were capable of making the decisions that determined the course of our entire lives. Our lives went in different directions based on the colleges we attended, the majors we picked and changed or the jobs we were hired into. At the time that I graduated high school I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life but I really had no idea how I would get there. Everyone told me journalism is a dying field that will have little to no jobs by the time I graduated. The fact that I was able to start writing professionally within a year of graduating college and stay within the Adirondack Park still amazes me. My best advice to graduating seniors is to keep your mentors close, stay true to your passions, choose friends who will be a true support to your goals in life and career and not an anchor against the current of your success, and be open to taking paths you might not have planned to take.Ó From Assistant Managing Editor Andy Flynn: “Do what you love. It’s not always easy in this world, with bills and the need for health insurance. Sometimes a higher-paying job can take you on a side trip of sorts, but always strive for finding that happy place. Life is too short.Ó From Valley News Editor Keith Lobdell: “I am going to take a pair of statements I have heard from the former NFL player, coach and current football analyst Herm Edwards. The first is, ‘nothing good EVER happens after 2 a.m.’ Be young, have fun, but know your limitations. The second is, Ô donÕ t press send!Õ Think before you blog, tweet, post, message, whatever. Once you press send, you can hit delete as quickly as possible, but what you just sent is out there forever. Make sure that nothing in your youth ever comes back to haunt you in the real world.Ó From Publisher Dan Alexander: “Many attitudes regarding careers and work-life expectations have changed since I left high school in the early 1970s, but if I had one piece of advice to offer it would be this. Dedication to the job youÕ ve accepted and recognizing the job is not about you itÕ s about the goals of the organization you work for. By putting your organization first you’ll never have to worry about career advancements, your talents will be sought out by others as recognition of your efforts. No task is too small to put your name on and a positive giving attitude will still take you farther then a self centered Ô WhatÕ s-in-it-for-meÕ approach ever will.Ó From Times of Ti Editor Fred Herbst: “Graduates, there’s bad news and good news on your commencement. The bad news is you are no where near as special, talented or gifted as people are telling you today. In fact, you — like the rest of us — are pretty ordinary. The goods news is that ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things every day. They raise families. They build communities. They educate others. They defend our country. The list of extraordinary accomplishments by ordinary people is endless. They do it through hard work, sacrifice and commitment. No less is expected of you.” From Managing Editor John Gereau: “One of the best graduation speeches I have had the privilege of hearing was delivered in 2012 by actor Salman Kahn to the graduating class at MIT. In summary, Kahn told the graduates to live life like it was their second time through it Ñ like a genie magically appeared before them at age 70 and allowed them to travel back to age 18 and do it all over again, affording the opportunity to change the parts they later regretted. As you travel along the rocky road of life, keep that advice in mind. How would you treat those you love and what life altering decisions would you make if it were your second chance to do so? Lastly, treat your parents and your knees kindly. You will miss them both when they are gone.Ó

Remember to honor those who gave their lives not only on Memorial Day, but everyday by saluting the flag. When you place your hand over your heart during the Pledge of Allegiance, National Anthem, Taps or the presentation of the American flag it will make you proud to be a Citizen of the United States and it just might make the person next to you do the same.

I am wondering why contractor Pat Armstrong got fined $500 for allegedly mudding a part of BurleighÕ s Bay. He was repairing a water line on the roadside part of a cement wall that borders the lake. BurleighÕ s Bay has always been known for its beautiful bullhead fishing; when the wind blew right and caused a big roil in the bay. The muddy water that the DEC fined him for was actually caused by this roil. Now, on the other side of the coin, the State of New York is allowing tons and tons of sediment to go into Lake George via Northwest Bay Brook, approximately 300 yards upstream from a boat launch site next to the Northwest Bay Brook that crosses Route 9N in the town of Bolton Landing. Why isn’t the state being fined? Albert Powvorznik Ticonderoga

Ti woman celebrates 100th birthday By Fred Herbst II.
fred@denpubs.com
TICONDEROGA — Hazel Straight doesn’t understand all the fuss. “I don’t know who cares about this,” Hazel said the day after her 100th birthday at Heritage Commons in Ticonderoga. “It’s no big deal.Ó Others disagree. Ò She a remarkable woman,Ó said Nancy Sheldon, HazelÕ s daughter. “It’s funny, we’d always said she was tough. And when she goes to the doctor, he always says she’s tough. I guess thatÕ s the word. SheÕ s tough. Ò SheÕ s smart, too,Ó Nancy added. Ò She remembers everything. Sometimes I have to call her when I can’t remember things.” Hazel was born June 11, 1913. She grew up in Richford, Vt. As a young woman she moved to New Hampshire to take a job in a photography studio. Eventually she found her way to Elizabethtown, where she met her husband Leo Cole. The couple had two daughters, Jean and Beverly, before Leo died in a hunting accident at age 29. “I don’t like to talk about that,” Hazel said. “It was a sad time.” Hazel then met Charles Straight. They married and moved to a home on Prospect Avenue in Port Henry. The couple had two daughters, Nancy and Cheryl. They raised their family with Charles working in mines for Republic Steel and Hazel taking care of the four girls. Charles died in 1989. The couple was married nearly 50 years. Hazel then moved to Lord Howe Estates in Ticonderoga. She lived on her own in an apartment there until a recent bout with pneumonia. She is now recovering at Heritage Commons, but plans to get back to her home soon. “I really want to get back to my apartment,” she said. “It’s nice here, but I can’t wait to get home.” Hazel has lived through the Great Depression, World War II, the nuclear age, the moon landing and much more. “A lot of ups and downs,” she said. “I guess that’s life.”
She recalled the hardships of food rationing during World War
Ò You needed a coupon just to buy a can of beans,Ó she said. Ò We had big gardens.Ó Hazel didnÕ t plan on becoming 100 years old. “I never thought much about it,” she said. “Then I started thinking that maybe I shouldn’t live that long. A lot of friends and family are gone.Ó Hazel credits her longevity to good habits and good genes. She doesnÕ t smoke or drink. Her mother lived to age 92. Her sisters lived well into their 90s. She doesnÕ t have many plans for the future, but still enjoys sewing and crocheting. Hazel marked her 100th birthday with a small party that included family and friends. “It was a nice day,” she said. “My daughter (Nancy) was here and some friends.Ó Nancy said a bigger celebration will be held when Hazel gets back to her apartment.
Hazel Straight celebrated her 100th birthday June 11 at Heritage Commons in Ticonderoga. She lived in Port Henry before moving to Ti.

Gas pipeline From page 1 IP’s 20-mile section of the pipeline is expected to be completed in 2015. Planning is now under way and construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2014. “Right now the focus is getting natural gas to IP,” Malaney said. Ò After that everyone agrees there is a good possibility the line could be extended to other areas. “The key will be Vermont Gas needs to fi nd an energy partner on New York,Ó she added. Ò Everyone seems to think the outlook is good.Ó Vermont Gas, based in South Burlington, said the line will travel near Route 116, then over to Vergennes on one spur and down to Middlebury on another. The pipeline isn’t being extended from Chittenden County solely for IP; it will also benefi t some communities along the route by providing them with natural-gas service. According to a statement from Vermont Gas, the Ticonderoga project is good for Vermont. “More than 15 percent of the wood supplied to the mill comes from sustainably-managed Vermont forests,Ó the statement reads. “The mill has 600 employees and an additional 700 independent loggers and truckers from New York and Vermont who directly earn a living by providing wood and fi ber to the mill. “After the Addison Natural Gas Project was launched, International Paper contacted Vermont Gas,” it continues. “Conversion to natural gas as a primary purchased fuel will lower energy costs for the mill and signifi cantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Vermont Gas has entered into an agreement with International Paper to provide gas to the mill in 2015 at no cost to Vermont residents or Vermont Gas customers. Clarah Slattery enjoyed having her face painted during the annual St. Mary’s School carnival in Ticonderoga.

Registration fees may increase ELIZABETHTOWN — It may soon cost more to register an automobile in Essex County. Members of the Essex County Finance Committee voted to draft a local law that would require residents of the county to pay a Highway Reuse Tax of $5 per year for passenger vehicles and $10 for commercial vehicles. Finance Committee chairman Tom Scozzafava said the idea had been discussed during budget subcommittee meetings and with Essex County Clerk Joe Provoncha, with estimates earning the county between $200,000 and $300,000 in increased annual revenue. Scozzafava said that the revenue would be used specifi cally for infrastructure. Ò This additional money will be used solely for highway and bridges,Ó he said. Ò The idea is to keep this additional money off the tax levy. This makes more sense to, instead of supporting your infrastructure off of property tax, support it more off the vehicles that use the roads.Ó County Attorney Daniel Manning said each of the surrounding counties has enacted a Highway Reuse Tax, which would also allow for exemptions on farm equipment and any vehicles whose use is already qualifi ed as tax exempt by the state. Scozzafava said that he knew there would be debate any time people see a new tax put in place, but he felt the reuse tax would shift the support for roadwork away from the county tax levy. Ò Everyone that goes in and registers a vehicle will give everyone a chance to pay their fair share and not being doing more or less based on property tax,Ó he said. Ò This is what we should have been doing a long time ago where you take stuff off the tax rolls that can be done through fees. It may be a new tax, but it is going to help you on the fl ip side.” The resolution to draft the local law for the fee passed 7-1, with Newcomb Supervisor George Canon absent and Westport Supervisor Dan Connell casting the lone dissenting vote. “I think that this is the third time that this has been brought up,” Connell said. “The folks that are in my community have been dead set against this and I will vote no. It is another tax as far as they are concerned.Ó Manning said that once the local law goes through the necessary political channels, a public hearing would be held, most likely prior to the Sept. 3 regular board meeting. Ò This will most likely be ready to go to public hearing in September,Ó he said.

Strawberry Festival slated in Crown Point Annual event June 30 By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — The ninth annual Crown Point Strawberry Festival promises to be bigger and better than ever. The event, sponsored by the First Congregational Church, will be held in the town park Sunday, June 30, 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. “I expect the park to be full that day,” Pastor David Hirtle of the First Congregational Church said. “The Strawberry Festival has become a pretty popular event. “The idea is to showcase Crown Point in a friendly, family atmosphere,Ó he added. Ò WeÕ re not interested in making money, thatÕ s why thereÕ s no charge for vendors. All we really hope to do is break even and have a great day.Ó The festival continues to grow. This year a classic car show will be added to the event. Tom Neddo is organizing that part of the
festival along with the Champlain Valley Cruisers Club. “This year, we are pleased to partner with Champlain Valley Classic Cars who will bring up to 30 beautiful, classic vehicles as eye-candy for all of us,Ó Hirtle said. Ò There will be vendors-a-plenty to make attendance a great experience.Ó The festival will also include the churchÕ s Ò famousÓ strawberry shortcakes made with local berries, strawberry ice cream sundaes provided by Stewarts, burgers, hot dogs, sausage, Pepsi products, onions and peppers, barbecue by Crown Point Bar-B-Que and PeggyÕ s Ò famousÓ michigan sauce. Meat will be provided by McKenzie’s Classic Meats. There will even be WiFi available during the event, provided by CPTELCO. The band Loose Connections will perform, amusement rides will be provided by Amyland Amusement, there will be a Ò Jump for Joy” bounce tent and raffl es for items donated by local businesses. The festival started nine years ago when church member Charlie Harrington, now the town supervisor, had an abundance of
strawberries and suggested a social. “Charlie had a bumper group and suggested we do something,” Hirtle recalled. “It’s turned out to be a great success. “The fi rst two years we had two full days of activities,” he added, Ò but we decided to consolidate things into one day and get the community more involved. Now itÕ s one of the best days of the year in Crown Point.” The First Congregational Church of Crown Point traces its history to 1804. Proceeds from the strawberry festival will be used to support its historic buildings as well as provide funds for outreach programs in the community as well as fuel, food and heating assistance. Ò We have helped to organize and participated in a Thanksgiving dinner for those in the community who would not have adequate food to mark the holiday,Ó Hirtle said. Ò We also run and staff Second Blessings thrift shop here in Crown Point. This outreach is provided on a donation basis only. Items in our shop are given, even without a donation to those in need.Ó
Bait and Tackle will supply the food for grilling. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. Ò All members and prospective members are encouraged to attend,Ó said Nancy Ockrin, chamber co-chairwoman. Ò This is a chance to network with old friends and meet new ones. The business community, local non-profi ts and invested communityminded individuals have been working well together for the past two years for the benefi t of Crown Point and surrounding locale. Ò We are here for you,Ó Ockrin said. Ò This is a labor of love and our desire is to simply continue to promote all the benefi ts and beauty of living in this section of the Adirondacks.Ó The chamber slogan is “Building a Bridge to a Strong and Dynamic Community,” which was adopted during the construction of the new Lake Champlain Bridge. The Crown Point chamber was formed two years ago while the bridge was being built. The group has two new offi cers this year — Cindy Bodette as treasurer and Wendy Terbeek as secretary. Ó We continue to grow,Ó Ockrin said, Ó and most recently welcomed Adirondack Dental Health Associates, Wagon Wheel Restaurant, Lakeside Regional Church and Mountain Petroleum.” The Crown Point Chamber of Commerce has contributed to school scholarships, the annual community Thanksgiving dinner, Relay for Life, Hammond Library outreach, Crop Walk, Penfi eld Museum and its events, town beautifi cation, the New York/ Vermont Bridge 5K race, Monitor Bay fi shing clinic, Monitor Bay Park celebration, Memorial Day events, Crown Point Trunk or Treat, Crown Point Bridge celebration and the Crown Point Visitor’s Center renovation celebration, The June 25 door prizes will be provided by Norm’s Bait and

Schroon Lake archers on target Students qualify for national tournament By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com
SCHROON LAKE — Schroon Lake students aim to please. In fact, their aim is so good, a quintet is among the best in the state. Shannon Garland, Sam Foote, Dawson DeZalia, Derek DeZalia and Megan Hall have distinguished themselves as archers. Competing in the National Archery in Schools Program, Garland and Hall, both juniors, each qualified for the national championship tournament in Louisville, Ky. Hall finished third and Garland fifth in the New York State tournament. The top five archers in the state event qualified for nationals. Foote, also a junior, missed qualifying for the national tourney by a single point and was 11th in the state. Derek DeZalia, a freshman, finished 20th of 556 competitors in the state tournament, while Dawson DeZalia was the top fourth grader in the event. After completing a unit on archery in physical education class at Schroon Lake Central School, a group of students decided they wanted to pursue the sport further. Mike Sharp, a physical education teacher at Schroon Lake, agreed to mentor the students, who practiced at 7 a.m. starting in January as they readied for the state tourney. “Archery is one of my passions,” Sharp said. “I encourage students to try. It’s a great sport — it’s an individual challenge. YouÕ re always competing against yourself as well as your opponents. “I’m really proud of these kids,” he continued. “They were very dedicated and it paid off. No one expected to have the kind of success we had.Ó That surprise is the main reason Garland and Hall won’t compete at the national tournament. Ò We didnÕ t plan on this,Ó Sharp explained. Ò ThereÕ s no money in our budget to send kids to Louisville. It’s too bad, but hopefully next year we can go.Ó Sharp and Lee Silvernail, another Schroon Lake physical education teacher, are both certified by the state Department of Environmental Conservation to run archery programs. Every student in the grades 7-12 take archery in physical education, although Sharp hopes to soon expand the program to lower grades. All the schoolÕ s equipment Ñ bows, arrows, targets Ñ were purchased

with a DEC grant. Ò WeÕ re seeing more interest in archery,Ó Sharp commented. “We just started an after-school program and I’m seeing some new faces. That’s cool. I think the success of Megan, Shannon, Sam, Derek and Dawson has helped generate some interest in school.Ó Archery is one of the fastest-growing sports in the United States. Since December 2011, individual membership in USA Ar-
chery has jumped 25 percent, while the number of clubs has nearly doubled, to 540 from 279. Struggling to keep pace with the demand for instructors, the organization recently moved part of its certification course online to speed the process. Much of that interest is traced to the youth book series and movie “The Hunger Games.” In “The Hunger Games” main character Katniss Everdeen, the 16-year-old bow-wielding heroine, is such a good shot that she hits squirrels in the eye.
Ti hurdler ninth in nation
TICONDEROGA — Jay Hebert of Ticonderoga recorded the ninth best time in the 110-meter hurdles at the New Balance National Outdoor Championships in track and field action June 15. Hebert finished second in his preliminary heat in 14.35 seconds at the national championship meet in Greensboro, N.C. The top eight runners advanced to the final. Wellington Zara of Swarthmore, Pa., won the event in 13.95 seconds. Hebert won the Division II (small school) championship in the 110-meter hurdles at the New York State Public High School Athletic Association championship meet in Middletown June 8. Hebert was clocked in 14.33 seconds to win the NYSPHAA title. He was second in the Federation race, running a personal-best 14.04 seconds. He was beaten by 9/100s of a second by Connetquot’s John Stallworth. The NYSPHAA includes all the stateÕ s public schools while the Federation includes both public and private schools. Hebert won the outdoor state and Federation 110-meter hurdle crowns in 2012 as a sophomore. The Ticonderoga High School hurdler also won a pair of state titles at this yearÕ s New York State Public High School Athletic Association indoor track championships March 2.

Roe Pond Invitational attracts large crowd
WITHERBEE — Despite wet weather, the 23rd Roe Pond Invitational for Kids was a rousing success, according to Brian Venne of the Moriah youth commission. “Saturday, May 25, 2013, day not fit for man or beast,” Venne said. “Just 54 young anglers and their happy parents. Rain, wind, cold, other than that, a perfect day for fishing. Fishing was steady, many nice fish landed, many wet hats, shirts, and pants, but the quest for the big one was bright and calm. “My wet hat off to all of you brave anglers,” he said. “I wish I could list the winners, but heavy rain and light paper do not make a good combination. So our winners are known only to themselves and their cold, soggy parents. We can all say everyone was a winner.Ó The first place winner received a $25 cash prize. Second and third place each received a rod and reel. Each participant received a rod and reel combo donated by South Bend Tackle Company and the Lunkerville Fishing Show. “All and all, a good day fishing if you enjoy being cold and wet,” Venne said. “As a diehard fisherman, every day is a good fishing day. Tight lines & good fishing!”

Grass fed M
Turtles, turtles everywhere
I
t has been a very wet and truly wild week in the woods, but in between the raindrops there was a lot of fun to be had, and the wildlife has been abundant. Black fl ies have been brutal, while dragonfl ies have been busy and turtles have been everywhere, depositing their eggs on sandy shorelines. For interested parties who may have missed the notice, the Adirondack Park Agency has also been busy hosting meetings to determine land classifi cations for several parcels of wild lands recently acquired from The Nature Conservancy. Among the parcels is a vast tract of land near Newcomb that was the longtime home of The Gooley Club, a sportsman’s club of the fi rst order. There is also a newly purchased tract that holds great promise for providing a safe takeout for paddlers, anglers and others who wish to journey on a comfortable fl at water fl oat trip along the remote upper sections of the Hudson River. There is a possibility the tract will be classifi ed appropriately to allow motorized access to a Ô take out Ô siteÕ so that paddlers can exit the river just above the wild Hudson River Gorge. The potential of access to and from the Hudson stillwater may provide a vital increase in usage which would bring more visitors to the small town of Newcomb. The Hudson River stillwater take out is necessary for casual paddlers who donÕ t car to tackle the heavy waters of the raging Hudson River Gorge. The Agency has issued a Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement on the proposed classifi cation of State lands in Essex and Hamilton Counties. The Agency has proposed seven classifi cation alternatives for these lands. Public comment is invited until July 19, 2013. The APA has already hosted hearings at their offi ces in Ray Brook, as well as in Newcomb, Indian Lake and New York City. The hearings have been well attended, especially with representatives from the various environmental advocacy groups. However, there has been a noticeable lack of support and input from the sporting community. I recently spoke with Jason Kemper, Chairman of the NYS Conservation Fund Advisory board who has been attending the APA hearings. Sadly, he has been one of the very few voices advocating for the sporting community. Kemper wants to get the word out that members of the sporting community need to be represented at the hearing to ensure the new land classifi cations are able provide and support access for all user groups and remain open and available for hunting and fi shing. If the classifi cation of the new lands eventually do not favor access for sportsmen, snowmobilers lands and other traditional users, the responsibility will be directly on the lack of support and advocacy from these user. The initial APA Hearing in Ray Brook attracted only three representatives from sportsman’s groups. In order to protect the traditional uses, the sporting community must make their voices heard! The schedule of APA Land Use Classifi cation Hearings will continue on: • June 25 at Indian Lake Central School in Indian Lake, 6 p.m. • July 1. The Harley School, Rochester, 7 p.m.
• July 2. DEC Headquarters, 625 Broadway, Albany, 1 p.m. • July 2. Warren County Offi ces, Lake George, 7 p.m. Written comments can also be submitted until July 19 to APA Deputy Director James Connolly at P.O. Box 99, Ray Brook, NY 12977 at Public comment is invited until July 19, 2013. http://apa.ny.gov/ or apa_slmp@gw.dec.state.ny.us
What to do?
A recent study conducted for the Essex County Visitors Center reveals visitors to the Adirondack region are primarily outdoor oriented and prefer hotel accommodations to other types, and spent $82 for every occupancy tax dollar spent on marketing in 2012. These results should come as no great surprise, really. I ‘ve yet to meet a visitor who has traveled to Essex County to attend an opera! The vast majority of our visitors come for the natural attractions, and as parents, we must do more to ensure our children learn to appreciate this fact. We must also make sure our local youth have appropriate opportunities to enjoy the local surroundings. Adirondackers have always raised their children with a solid connection to the environment. It has helped to shape their character and foster an understanding of natural processes. It is a vital component of our regions culture and huge part of the North Country ‘s heritage. The Adirondack Interpretive Center has been making this initiative their mission for several years. The staff has been providing a wide range of outdoor skill education programs, and they plan to continue it next weekend with a series on Fly Fishing hosted by Adirondack guide Rick Kovacs. Kovacs is an accomplished fl yfi sherman, who operates Packbasket Adventures in the sprawling northern metropolis of Wanakena, which is located up Cranberry way. Rick travels annually to the AIC in Newcomb to present programs on fl yfi shing, and to visit a community of comparable size to his own. The program is designed for beginners and intermediate level fl yfi shing enthusiasts. Topics will include: Insects important to fl y fi shing, fl y fi shing in the Adirondacks, correction of fl y casting mistakes for intermediates, gear selection and fl y lines, basic fl y casting for beginners, and fl y tying. Weather permitting, participants will have the chance to practice their skills on the water. Fly fi shing rods are available to rent for a $25 fee. Advance registration is required, $25 per person per session, call 518-582-2000 or email aic@esf.edu. Bring your lunch to each workshop. The workshop provides a great opportunity for local residents, as well as visitors to learn the ins and outs of fl yfi shing just in time to enjoy New York’s Free Fishing Days next weekend on June 29-30.

ore than 25 years ago I was involved in the effort to promote grazing management. During the early years, grassland management for feeding beef or dairy cows was not promoted by the agricultural universities, or most of the conservation agencies at the federal, state or local levels. Pasture was old style farming and the Ag. By Rich Redman Professors were pushing the new and improved model of farming. Universities utilized grant money from chemical and fertilizer companies to do studies, so they towed the company mantra of bigger is better, get big or get out, keep the cows in the barn, and use our latest new and improved product to improve your bottom line, which was really the salesmanÕ s and the companyÕ s bottom line. The times havenÕ t changed for many products! The times have changed for pasture though. Here it is, 25 years later and grazing management has been accepted by many farmers to improve their bottom line. Grazing grass reduces manure handling costs and energy costs, improves soil health and herd health by getting the cows out of the barn and on grass pastures where nature intended them to be in the fi rst place. I recently attended two grazing meetings, one in Essex County, NY and the other in Wells, Vermont. At both meetings, grassland production was based on quality soils and the benefi t of having abundant organic matter to supply nutrients and energy to growing plants. Grazing consultants, including myself, have a variety of options on how to graze. For reseeding and establishing clover, there are times when nubbing the grass down to the dirt and drilling or spreading clover or perennial ryegrass seed works. Letting the cows push the seed and organic matter into the soil with their hoofs gets the job done. Drilling into sod works also, BUT, it must be done when the grasses are nubbed down, and there is plenty of moisture to allow the young plants to get established. If the grasses get too high, they will shade out the clovers that are trying to grow. Traditional grass management is to graze when the grass was about 9 inches high and down to 4 or 5 inches to get the fresh growing high protein feed. Basically it was a take half, leave half approach. This allowed the high protein grasses to be grazed, and enough leaf left for photosynthesis. High grass grazing is now being looked at as another option. High grass grazing is letting the grass get even higher, to maybe 20 inches and just taking the top third of the plant. The actual height will depend on the species of plant growing. REGROWTH TIME is critical to allow the leaves to grow as high as possible without the plant going to seed head stage, and to allow the roots to grow deeper and build organic matter. By grazing the top 1.3 of the plant, the cow gets the Ò creamÓ off the top. The remaining plant is left or trampled until the next time the cows rotate through the paddock. The benefi ts are that some organic matter is pushed into the ground by the cows hooves slowly building up the soil, the leaves that are left are longer so the plant grows faster due to increase photosynthesis of the plant leaf and the cows get the high energy or cream off the top of the plant for their use. The long grass residue left protects the soil from drying out and keeps the soil microbes happy so they do their thing breaking down organic matter and releasing nutrients to the grass plants. For beef operations, I feel the high grass grazing approach is fi ne, but I am not sold 100 percent yet on how dairy cow milk production would be on higher grazed grasses. The farmer would have to do a comparison and see what happens in the bulk tank to know the truth. That would be an easy test to perform on the farm. Another added benefi t that is a marketing plus for grassland agriculture in general is that organic matter stores carbon. By building up your soils, you are storing carbon instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. It was said that if agriculture went with more perennial species like grass there would be a great reduction in atmospheric carbon. It will be the farmers who will save the world, not the politicians! Agriculture is booming in our area. Grass fed beef is making great strides lately as a better and healthier food for the consumer. The growth of Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) operations, grass fed beef and vegetable operations; many driven by some of todayÕ s younger generation are pushing the envelope on new and different products for the consumer. High tunnels, irrigation and specialty crops are growing throughout the nation. There are about 14 of us grazing people out there that are involved in a Holistic Grazing Management program where we are constantly learning about grassland management for wildlife, beef and dairy cow grazing, organic matter buildup and carbon sequestration. It’s all about the ecology of grasslands and cattle. You must learn to look at the whole thing and understand how it works; not just looking at a piece of the ecology pie! I will try to keep you all informed as we all learn. We all must keep learning until the day we die. We will probably learn something then, when we step across that threshold! But I am in no hurry! I would like to thank Ed Schillawski of the Seedway Company for their donation. A special thank you to both the Lincoln and Larson families for taking the time out of their busy day to share their farm experiences with all of the tour folks. Thank You to Ian Mitchell Innes from South Africa for a great presentation on mob stocking and to Jenn Colby of the UVM Center for Sustainable Agriculture.
