Wild Center unveils new eco-friendly heating system

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com TUPPER LAKE — For the first time in state history, a large-scale institution will be heated with a regionally manufactured, high-efficiency heating system, powered by renewable, locally grown pulp.

The Wild Center Natural History Museum in Tupper Lake unveiled its plan to construct a $400,000, wood pellet burning gasification heating system, which the manufacturer claims can reach efficiency ratings of 90 percent.

The system uses solar arrays in concert with wood pellets to heat water and reduce the need for traditional propane-burning boiler systems.

The system is manufactured by ACT Bioenergy Inc. of Schenectady and, for state and local officials, could be a method to create not only greater environmental sustainability, but also reinvent the sustainable wood harvesting economy of the park.

The Director of the DEC Forest Utilization Program Sloane Crawford said wood burning heating systems make sense for the region as they could serve a threepronged approach to dealing with energy efficiency, energy independence and local economic viability concerns.

“Community-scale wood energy – by community scale I’m talking municipal buildings, small commercial buildings, things like that – do not use a lot of wood compared to other uses of wood,” he said.

Crawford said there are approximately 1 million acres of recognized sustainably-managed woodlands in the state, and over 610,000 in the park.

Over 100 million tons of lowgrade pulpwood could be harvested while keeping the growth to harvest ratio at one to one, putting people back to work while feeding a new market, he said.

In 2006, about 170 million cubic feet of lumber was harvested in New York. Roughly 75 million was low-grade pulp, most of which was shipped to paper mills.

Local government officials have long argued that creating working forests is a primary key to a viable Adirondack economy, and Crawford said that new pulpwood markets could be a seminal event for the region.

Program Manager of Environmental Research at the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) Mark Watson said that there is a push in Albany to use the Adirondacks as a model for future development of an eco-neutral lifestyle.

Ironman commits to Lake Placid through 2012

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — Local town officials are in high spirits after yet another Lake Placid Ironman event has given a boost to local businesses and triathlon organizers have offered to extend their commitment to the village for the next three years.

The annual triathlon, owned and organized by the World Triathlon Corporation, represents one of six full-distance Ironman events in the continental United States. It draws over 2,200 athletes, 3,500 volunteers, and thousands of spectators to Lake Placid and the surrounding region each year.

“This world-class event is similar to other prestigious events hosted by Lake Placid,” said Lake Placid Mayor Craig Randall. “The economic impact of Ironman is significant to our entire region, it flows to our many area shops, restaurants, lodging and related support services, and to everyone they employ.”

On July 27, the day following this year ’s event, the Lake Placid/Essex County Visitors’ Bureau joined leaders from the Village of Lake Placid and the

More than 2,200 athletes began the ninth annual Ford Ironman Lake Placid Triathlon with a 2.4 mile swim around Mirror Lake July 26. This sight will remain a familiar one in Lake Placid as Ironman’s governing body has extended their contract with local municipalities through the year 2012.

towns of North Elba, Jay, Wilmington, and Keene in announcing an extension of their contract with WTC to host the Ford Ironman Lake Placid through 2012.

Randall said despite recent changes in WTC ownership, the extended con-

tract was very similar to those of the past as far as village obligations.

“Ford Ironman Lake Placid has played a large part in the history of the sport in the United States and has become a hub for the triathlon community,”

said Shane Facteau, Ironman's director of operations. “We are excited to be back for another three years.”

The extended contract comes as welcome news to local government leaders, many of whom lauded the

Lake Placid Ironman as a boon to the local economy.

“The Town of Wilmington is excited to learn that Ironman will continue to be with us, it has been an economic engine for the region and the state, filling our

Local man battles tumor, triathlon

By Linda Dolly and Kevin McKee denpubs@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — Joel Harwood just wants to have fun; Ironman style.

Harwood, 41, of Elizabethtown, was one of more than 2,200 athletes from across the globe competing in the ninth annual Ford Ironman Lake Placid triathlon July 26, the grueling race where each participant must complete a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bicycle ride and a 26.2-mile marathon.

“I have always had an interest in the Ironman. I saw the Ironman a couple of years ago, and just loved it. I wanted to compete.”

But Harwood had other reasons for going after his goals. In 2007, he won a months-long battle with a brain tumor.

“When I had the tumor, it and some friends pushed me to do it,” he said prior to the race.

“I'm very happy I'm able to be in the race. On Sunday I'm going to go out there and have fun.”

After training for nine months, Harwood felt ready.

As dawn broke that morning, the streets of Lake Placid were nearly empty. Traffic to much of Lake Placid was closed from 5 a.m. until the last racer able to qualify crossed the finish line at midnight.

A steady steam of cars stopped in front of the Olympic Speed Skating Oval on Main

Street to drop off athletes. The air was thick with the smell of magic markers as dozens of volunteers in blue T-shirts wrote the identifying race number on the arms and legs of the roughly 2,500 participants.

Harwood was flanked by two friends and trainers, Michael Manosh and Tim Rielly, who offered last minute advice. He credited Manosh, a co-worker and two-time Ironman finisher, with helping him outline a training schedule to compete in the challenge.

By 7 a.m. over 2,000 swimmers, all outfitted in black wet-suits and color coded swimcaps, were in Mirror Lake, listening as The National Anthem played on loudspeakers.

Then, with a blast of sound, the water came alive with arms, legs and splashing water.

During the 2.4 mile swim, and throughout the day, motivating high-energy music filled the air. Portions of the race were lined with fences to protect the athletes and offer intimate viewing for spectators.

The fences were lined with fans, many of them in special T-Shirts created for the day.

You could spot a cluster of fans by the color of their shirts.

Closer inspection told you who they were cheering for or offered other triathlon thoughts like “Real men wear lycra” or “You run... I'll nap.”

Harwood had his own posse, all of them clad in bright orange T-Shirts that read

Joel Harwood of Elizabethtown still managed to muster a smile as he crossed the finish line in the 2009 Lake Placid Ironman triathlon July 26. Harwood, who was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2007, had made it a personal goal to complete the grueling race.

APA legislation fails to garner Assembly support denpubs@denpubs.com

ALBANY — Three bills proposed by the Adirondack Park Agency failed to garner support from state legislators and have not seen the floor of the State Assembly because no sponsor for the bills could be found, APA officials said this week. The lack of support leaves agency officials scrambling to rework the bills in time for the next legislative session.

APA Board of Commissioners Chairman Curt Stiles blamed old biases for lack of support from Adirondack area legislators.

“These bills have nothing to do with the environment,” Stiles said. “They were about the fabric of the park and how the agency does business.”

The three bills included a measure that would increase the number of structures permitted in moderate- and low-intensity zones to allow the construction of affordable housing. This legislation would allow up to four structures to be built on a lot that would typically only support one, provided they share a common septic system.

The lack of affordable housing in the Adirondacks has for decades been a primary agenda item for local government officials, who argue that low wages combined with soaring property costs are pricing year-round residents out of the housing market.

The second bill would set up a fund meant to be used by Adirondack towns and villages for planning or zoning studies and the creation of comprehensive or master plans.

According to APA legal counsel John Banta, the funds would be raised through surcharges attached to building permit applications.

The third bill would change the way the agency does busi-

ness, officials said.

It would expand the amount of time the agency has to review a proposed project from 60 to 90 days and in some cases no longer require public hearings to be held, provisions that have concerned some Adirondack landowners.

But APA officials stress that an applicant could still request a hearing.

According to APA spokesman Keith McKeever, the third bill would streamline the permitting process and allow the agency to give every potential building project its due diligence.

But for local Assemblywoman and ranking Republican on the Environmental Conservation Committee Teresa Sayward, the implication that public hearings could potentially be circumvented left her with no choice but to not sponsor the bills in their present form.

“The bills weren’t in the shape we would have liked them to be,” Sayward said. “There were some things that needed to be changed – the public hearing provision for one – and I expect to see them again very soon with some of these changes made.”

Sayward said that Adirondack residents often feel that their opinions are ignored by state agencies.

“There has always been a bone of contention in the Adirondacks among the local people that their voices aren’t heard,” she said. “We thought it best to move all three bills together instead of in pieces.”

The planning fund and affordable housing initiatives have gained the support of the Adirondack Local Government Review Board, but the Agency Streamlining Bill has some local officials concerned.

APA officials said they expect the bills to be reintroduced in the fall legislative session after some revisions are made.

From page 1 “Ironman Joel Harwood 2009” on the front and "Team Harwood" on the back.

In Lake Placid, Harwood's supporters included his wife, Barbara; children, Claire and Hugh; parents, brothers, sisters, several nieces and nephews, and many friends. In Keene, his in-laws, Al and AnnaBell Kurtz, and other friends were waiting along the race route to offer further encouragement.

At least three times during the race, he found Barbara in the crowd and kissed her. Later, when asked if she thought about her husband’s, brain tumor during the race, Barbara shook her head.

“We don't think about it much anymore,” she said. “He was diagnosed, we did what we could to address it, and we were lucky.”

Although Barbara claims she doesn't spend much time thinking about Joel's illness, she could easily rattle off dates and numbers of significance surrounding it.

Diagnosed with the tumor in February 2007, he quickly underwent surgery to remove it, followed by several weeks of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. By June 2007, he had a clear brain scan.

“We keep watching,” she said. “Last week another scan showed Joel was tumor-free.”

But now Joel had another battle on his hands: completing one of the most demanding athletic events in the world.

Late into the evening, he did just that, finishing the race with a time of 14 hours, 39 minutes and 42 seconds.

On July 27, the day after the Ironman, Harwood replayed the race.

“It went exactly how I had planned it in terms of training and my finish time,” he said. “I had a good swim and a strong bike ride.”

“The run was hard,” he added. “I ran the whole race between aid stations and walked up the hills. At that point my legs would only allow me to run so fast, so I ran as fast as I could.”

Joel said he was most amazed by the thousands of volunteers who facilitated the event, assisting athletes, providing security, and even picking up trash.

“The whole race was fun for me,” said Joel. “People were encouraging and complementing us (the athletes) throughout the race. It really felt good.”

Joel's children offered their own insight on the race. Hugh, 13, summed up his thoughts in four words: “Exciting, proud, happy, exhilarating.”

“I'm really proud of my Dad's accomplishment,” said Claire, age 15, “140.6 miles of exercising is really something.”

Now that Joel has finally become an Ironman, he has some other goals in mind.

“Maybe I should go for a bike ride,” he said jokingly to Barbara the day following the race, “but I won’t. I think I'll just watch some TV, drink some beer and sleep.”

APA allows extra public hearing

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — Adirondack Park Agency officials have agreed to grant one final public hearing concerning the reclassification of 12,500 acres of recently acquired land surrounding Lows Lake – including the lakebed itself.

Early this week, Harrietstown officials requested the additional hearing. Harrietstown Supervisor Larry Miller told WNBZ that local sportsman and outdoors clubs had contacted him, stating the three previous public hearings were either too far from the local area or held at a time when many couldn’t attend.

“They felt it was too far for individuals in the Tri-Lakes area to go to and they felt there would be the possibility of a great number of individuals who would want to participate,” he said.

The previous public hearings were held earlier this month in Long Lake, Wanakena and Albany.

Miller offered the Harrietstown Hall as a potential site for the additional hearing, but APA legal counsel John Banta said it will instead be held at the agency headquarters in Ray Brook. The hearing is scheduled for Monday, Aug. 10 at 6:30 p.m., Banta said.

The APA has proposed a plan that would reclassify most of the land as wilderness. The access road and the two 100year old dams that are responsible for the lake’s existence would be classified as primitive, according to the APA plan.

A consistently contentious issue, if adopted Lows Lake and the surrounding land would be added to the Five Ponds Wilderness Area.

The matter turned especially divisive when, after an Adirondack Mountain Club lawsuit, the agency adopted a measure that will forever ban floatplane access to Lows Lake as of December 31, 2011.

The lake is a favorite site of canoeists and bass fisherman alike, but some canoeists had complained that the planes were disrupting their wilderness experience. The mountain

club then successfully argued that continued floatplane access was contrary to the State Land Master Plan.

Before the total ban, the Department of Environmental Conservation had proposed a 10-year extension to floatplane access citing the high percentage of revenue the floatplane operators generate from trips to Lows Lake.

Local government officials are now troubled by the assertion that a lake bottom could potentially be classified as “wilderness,” a move they say is precedent-setting. Franklin County Legislator Paul Maroun sent a letter to APA Chairman Curt Stiles earlier this week expressing as much.

“It’s not a common practice; it is a precedent-setting issue actually. What I am concerned about is two things: One, this has very serious implications for Lake Placid, Cranberry Lake and even the Raquette River. We may have to extract docks that are in there already,” he said. “If they (the APA) claim riparian rights, that means what’s under the water would belong to the State of New York now.”

Maroun said the state has enough problems paying the taxes on the land it already owns. Adding lakebeds would only increase the tax-burden on the state, he said.

But for environmentalists, these measures are an appropriate and necessary step in assuring the wild character of the Bog River Flow.

SARANAC LAKE — The Saranac Lake Youth Center Board of Directors announced Friday that Executive Director Elizabeth Carless will be leaving the organization for a new job in Lake Placid.

Board President Doug Zobel said Carless sent a resignation letter to the board via email, effective July 30. She’ll take a job at AdWorkshop in Lake Placid, which Zobel says is more in line with her background and experience.

Zobel says Carless was a proactive leader for the youth center, and an asset that will be missed.

Carless to leave post at youth center denpubs@denpubs.com

Kate Ellers, of Lake Placid, and Amy Ignatuk, of Upper Jay, have joined the staff of the Adirondack Chapter of The Nature Conservancy and the Adirondack Land Trust. As summer interns, they are exploring the field of conservation, working side-by-side with professional staff in environmental stewardship, scientific research, communications, and fundraising.

“She’s done a fantastic job,” he said.

“She was super organized, super motivated, she was very good in all aspects.

She was wonderful with the kids; she was wonderful from the business end as far as being proactive about getting out into the community, getting the center well-known, getting ads onto the radio and into the newspaper. She was a huge, huge asset for the youth center in the time that she was here.”

Carless could not be reached for comment. Zobel said the board has placed an advertisement in the paper to rehire for the position.

“It sort of leaves us a little bit up in the air because traditionally it’s been a hard position to fill and keep filled,” he

said.

In the mean time, Zobel said the board will work together to fulfill the executive director ’s duties for the youth center.

“We sort of have a dwindling board right now,” he said. “We have maybe six core members, and last year when we were looking for an interim director before we found Elizabeth, we all took turns patching in keeping the center open when we were each available.”

Carless was hugely popular with the youth at the center, and is widely credited with fixing the center ’s image with the community and making the youth center a safe place for kids to hang out.

motels and restaurants and generating a large amount of revenue for us all,” said Wilmington supervisor Randy Preston.

In Saranac Lake, too, the economic impact is evident.

According to Saranac Lake Area Chamber of Commerce director Sylvie Nelson, hotels and motels there usually find themselves sold out during the weekend.

“We’re all in one big region, and we benefit from each other in that respect,” she said.

According to North Elba

supervisor Roby Politi, the Ironman event has an economic impact of about $10 million in the area, and generates roughly $800,000 in sales tax revenue for Essex County each year. Though it’s too early for any actual figures, he said there was no reason to believe this year was any different.

Politi said he relieved reports that hundreds of athletes were lining up July 27 to register for Lake Placid’s 2010 Ironman event, and that nearly all the available slots have already been filled.

“So next year there should be just as many (people),” he said.

Harrietstown to test for chloride leaching

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — The Town of Harrietstown is taking proactive steps to make sure its salt and sand storage area isn’t contaminating Lake Colby.

Supervisor Larry Miller said performing a chloride test at the site of the highway garage on John Munn Road is a good idea, considering the Village of Saranac Lake just avoided a potential lawsuit over its salt pile on Van Buren Street.

“We want to avoid going through a similar situation,” Miller said. “We have an open salt pile – we know that, we realize that.”

In June, the Adirondack Council filed a notice of intent to sue with the village. Spokesman John Sheehan told WNBZ the salt was leaching into Colby Brook and contaminating Lake Colby. Shoreowners say they’ve been monitoring the situation since 2003, and that chloride levels have been rising consistently.

The lawsuit threat prompted the state Department of Environmental Conservation to file a consent order with the village. Officials on both sides agreed to alleviate the problem by covering and/or moving the pile until a permanent solution could be reached.

Miller says Harrietstown will seek help from Paul Smith’s College for the testing.

“I’ve spoken with their president, John Mills, and he says he’ll see if the college’s environmental program can do the testing for us,” he said.

If that arrangement falls through, the board said it would allow Miller to contact Canton-based environmental firm Atlantic Testing Laboratories. He added that some concerns have been raised that Harrietstown’s salt pile could be contributing to the Lake Colby contamination.

Along with testing at the John Munn Road site, samples will be taken from three existing test wells at neighboring Griffith Energy. That will provide feedback on chloride levels in the wetlands surrounding the town garage.

This fall, Miller says the town will proceed with plans to erect a storage facility for the sand and salt pile on John Munn Road. Whether or not the village signs on for a sharedservices plan remains up in the air.

Earlier in July, Harrietstown said it would not share a storage shed or pole barn at the village-owned site on Van Buren Street – leading some to believe that the town had no interest in collaborating with the village.

Miller clarified the town’s stance last week.

“We have every intention of working with the village on this,” he said. “But we want to do it at the town’s site.”

“We’ve been trying to work with the village to do a sandsalt shed together,” Miller said. “I think this board, in the fall, will be looking at some type of proposal if we don’t get our Green Innovation Grant in August, as to some way of covering or building a salt shed and maybe downsizing what we need to do if we have to go it alone – though we would rather share and work with the village to do that.”

The federally funded Green Innovation Grant would give the town $800,000 to use toward the construction of a polebarn or storage shed to cover sand and salt. The grant requires a 10 percent match, although Miller noted it can be fulfilled through in-kind services.

Miller added that the town already has the preliminary goahead from the Adirondack Park Agency for the potential construction of a storage facility.

Two arrested for armed robbery SARANAC LAKE — Saranac Lake Police arrested two Lake Placid men last week after they allegedly attempted to rob a man by threatening him with a fake handgun.

Lawrence Callaghan, 27, and Michael Hirach, 22, both of Lake Placid, were each arrested July 23 and charged with attempted robbery in the second degree, a Class D felony, as well as assault and menacing.

According to police, the two men allegedly held up another male who was parking his car in a village parking lot between Broadway and Church Street around 9:30 p.m. July 22. The victim was not identified.

“He was exiting his vehicle when one of the attackers grabbed him by the throat and thrust a gun to his head while forcing him back into the car,” police said in a statement.

“The attacker threatened to shoot the victim if did not give him money.”

Police say the victim was able to push the attacker away and exit the car.

“The two attackers punched and kicked at the victim, knocking him to the ground,” said police.

After a brief struggle, the victim was reportedly able to break free and called police on his cell phone as the attackers fled.

An investigation secured eviHirach Callaghan dence and statements leading to the identity of the two attackers, who police arrested the following day. The investigation also revealed that the gun allegedly used in the hold-up was a plastic replica handgun.

Both suspects were arraigned and remanded to Franklin County Jail in lieu of bail.

Curious portrayals of men today A

t the risk of dating myself, I grew up watching television shows like Father Knows Best, the Walton’s, Leave it to Beaver, the Andy Griffin Show, Happy Days, the Beverly Hillbilly’s, Green Acres and the Brady Bunch. In most of these shows, father was portrayed as wise, unselfish, courageous, rational and largely unflappable. Granted, Oliver Douglas, the lead character from Green Acres was sometimes portrayed as a self important gas bag and Jed Clammpet the lead male, character from the Beverly Hillbillies was sometimes guilty of an utterly implausible naiveté.

Mike Brady, the father from the Brady Bunch not only always knew exactly what to do and say to his wife and children; he delivered his always enlightened words with the soothing and modulated cadence of an empathetic psychotherapist. Mr. Brady’s knowledge was so broad that once, when the family visited the Grand Canyon, he was able to tell the children about the rich traditions of the Hopi Indians of the area in a way that would have put a tour guide to shame.

Contrast these portrayals of men as wise and rational with the male characters of King of Queens, Everybody Loves Raymond or Home Improvement, to mention just a few.

Tim, the lead character from Home Improvement is largely a self indulgent buffoon. He has little to offer his wife or children in the way of family leadership. In fact, Tim is often rescued by his wife and children. Tim is helplessly bereft most of the time while he attempts to express himself as a self described “macho man.”

Raymond, the male lead in Everybody Loves Raymond comes closer to being any ordinary person, albeit a “childlike” adult. Raymond spends much of his time trying to figure out his marriage and more specifically his high performance wife. Raymond’s parents are ever present in his life and persistently insert themselves in ways that certain-

ly undermines him and, not coincidently, his marriage.

Raymond has no insight into this obvious and destructive intrusion by his parents.

One consistent theme in these humorous sitcoms is the role of the wife. The wife in each of these shows is a highly capable, attractive and intelligent woman who must act the long suffering woman who leads her

By Scot Hurlburt clueless husband around by the nose.

The men in these shows seem to mess up just about everything, even the most elementary problem is too much for them. While certain stereotypes from the past needed correcting, such as those foisted upon women, depicting men as fools in the process seems a bit curious to me.

I’m not sure what this cultural shift means for men and maybe these portrayals are part of a necessary, if not understood by me, evolution in cultural norms. Additionally, I wonder what effect these depictions are having on young people. Do they see their fathers as the feckless twits they seem to be on so many contemporary sitcoms?

I wonder what John Walton would have said about men being portrayed as fools in popular culture? I suspect that he would have shook his head, said goodnight to John Boy and went to bed, just as I am about to do. Remember, all kids count.

Look for Coupons in All the Right Places When people hear how much money I save each week on my grocery bill by using coupons, there are those who conclude that I must use secret, special coupons that the rest of the world isn't clued into. In one of my coupon classes a woman asked, "Where do you find these coupons? I noticed my friend has different coupons in her paper than I do."

Well, there's a reason for that. Did you know that the coupons you receive in your Sunday newspaper can be different depending on which paper you subscribe to? At times, companies wishing to reach different market areas will offer coupon promotions to specific newspapers. While all Sunday papers have coupon inserts, the coupons may vary depending on which paper you receive.

I subscribe to two papers on Sunday, our local town newspaper and the big Chicago newspaper. While many times both papers will carry the same coupons, there are also times when one paper will have more or different coupons than another. The fact that different newspapers carry different coupons is usually - pardon the pun - news to most people.

Obviously, I love coupons, and I enjoy receiving both newspapers on Sunday, not only to keep up on the local and regional news but also to maximize the number of coupons I get each week. Depending on where you live, it may be worth your while to see what coupons are available in each newspaper.

While the newspapers inserts are always going to be the primary and best source for coupons, another good place to find coupons is on the Internet. Hundreds of product manufacturers and grocery stores themselves offer printable coupons for their products.

Printing coupons from the Internet is easy to do. Browse to the Web site of the manufacturer of the product you're interested in. Look for a link to print coupons and select the ones you would like to print. Some Web sites may ask you to register for a free account. Others may ask you to install their plug-in that will allow you to print their coupons each time you visit. Then, simply click the Print Coupons link and the coupons will be sent right to your printer. It's good to note, too, that you're allowed to print most Internet coupons

twice. Make sure to go back and print another set if you'd like to buy more than one of each item, which is always a smart idea when the price is low.

Check your store's Web site for coupons, too. Many stores offer printable coupons on their Web sites and some will also offer electronic coupons that you can load to your shopper's discount card digitally, via the

By Jill Cataldo store's Web site. This is an even easier way to use coupons since you don't need to print them out at all.

Another great place to find good coupons is in grocery stores themselves. Don't forget to look for coupons in the aisles near the products you're shopping for. There are coupon dispensers and displays throughout the grocery store. You'd be surprised how many times you might find an item on sale for $1 ... and a dispenser full of $1 coupons right above it. Take advantage of both. Remember, pairing a $1 coupon with a $1 sale is one of the easiest ways to get groceries for free.

Next week, I'll answer some more questions from readers like you. If you're getting started with coupons or you're a seasoned couponer with a question, please feel free to e-mail it to me at jill@ctwfeatures.com. Your answer may appear in a future column.

while Devin Corwall of Blacksburg, Va. holds the male record with a time of 45:09.

The race will begin at Riverside Station at 9 a.m. following a “whistle blow.” Spectators are welcome to cheer on their favorite participant as they ride the train to North Creek.

Participants and spectators can board the train at 8 a.m. at the North Creek Depot and ride to Riverside Station, allowing for an opportunity to see the course prior to the event.

Numerous prizes will be handed out, with the top-three finishers in both men’s and women’s divisions receiving tickets for a Hudson River rafting trip.

Following the race, about 75 children take part in the Family Fun Run. North Creek’s Main Street is closed down while “future” Race the Train runners dash to the finish line.

The cost of the race this year (including train ride, food, and t-shirt) is $25 for adults and $20 for those 19 and under. Students attending Johnsburg Central School may run for $10. The cost of the Family Fun Run is $5.

Runners can register at active.com or call 518-251-2602 for additional information, Arsenault said.

RIPARIUS — For the eighth year, runners will scramble to beat the scenic railroad train over its 8.4-mile trip from Riverside Station in Riparius to the North Creek Depot during the celebrated Race the Train event set for Aug. 1.

What was intended as a small, local event has become a huge regional draw, attracting runners from all corners of the Northeast.

Each year, this enthusiasm has increased, as runners from all over the state — and in some cases nation — trek to the Adirondacks for the event.

“While we first intended to host a local running race, I learned that some local folks thought it would be cool to do something, such as biking along the train tracks,” event co-organizer Ann Arsenault said. “What was originally thought to become a small local event, Race the Train now welcomes runners of all ages and abilities and brings in people from all over New York and neighboring states.”

In 2008, nearly 300 participants ran in the event, and more are likely this year.

The current record holders are Megan Holden of Ballston Spa with a time of 52:48,

ccording to the National Center for Summer Learning (NCSL), children experience learning losses when not engaged in educational activities for extended periods of time.

Commonly referred to as summer slide, this overall decline in learning leaves many parents wondering how they can keep their children's minds actively engaged outside of the classroom. Get them involved in a summer arts program. There are also a lot of fun and educational activities at your local library.

Another way to keep your children's minds active this summer is to be sure they read Kidsville News! Encourage them to work the puzzles, read the educational articles and draw a picture and send it

Religious leaders from the Tri-Lakes region lead a service of re-dedication July 12 for the Pine Ridge cemetery in Saranac Lake. The cemetery had been vandalized in late May when several Jewish headstones were knocked down. (R to L): Rev. Brok Baker, St. Eustace Episcopal Church; Rev. Joann White, First Presbyterian Church; Rabbi Alec Friedmann, Lake Placid Synagogue; Rev. Ann Gaillard, Church of St. Luke; and Father Tom Kornmeyer, St. Bernard's Church. Not shown: Rev. Mark Demers, Adirondack Community Church.

Wild Center From page 1 statement for the Wild Center is to ignite an enduring passion for the Adirondacks, where people and nature can thrive together and set an example for the world” he said.

“Well here in New York, in the Adirondacks, in Tupper Lake we are certainly setting an example for the world.”

NYSERDA officials said that funding is in place for research strategies for sustainability infrastructure for municipalities, schools and non-profits. The next step is funding for implementation of the plans, but at present such money is not accessible.

The planning for the Wild Center was largely funded by $300,000 in NYSERDA grants.

But for Wild Center Executive Director Stephanie Ratcliffe, the program and what it represents for the future of the park is well worth the expense. She said that the museum will continue to push forward research that attempts to better the environment and the quality of life for Adirondack residents.

“A visitor sent us a note recently, thanking us for all the work we have done on climate change and he called us a lab of innovation,” she said. “That was quite a compliment, we love the sound of that and that’s exactly where the Wild Center wants to be.”

The museum is currently seeking funding for the implementation of the heating system.

The system will be independently monitored by researchers from Clarkson University to assess its effectiveness and applied efficiency.

SARANAC LAKE — Saranac Lake ArtWorks is inviting artists to come participate in the first Adirondack Plein Air Festival held in the community.

Scheduled for Aug. 21-23, the festival will feature both amateur and professional artists creating art outdoors on location. Members of the public are invited to come watch these painters, sculptors, and illustrators at work.

“Plein Air” means working in the “open air” and usually applies to painters, but this event welcomes artists using any media appropriate for outdoor use, including photographers.

Artists will have the weekend to work at locations of their choice, then enter the work in a Show and Sale from 3-6 p.m. Aug. 23. in the John Black Room at the historic Trudeau Lab on Church St. This will be a great opportunity for people to meet the artists and collect unique works of art.

In addition to the Show & Sale, a fund-raising event is planned for Saturday morning at the Adirondack Artists’ Guild Gallery, 52 Main St., Saranac Lake.

All artists who register for the Plein Air Festival will receive a 5x7 panel, paper, or pre-cut mat (depending upon their choice of media).

From 10 a.m. until noon on Saturday, artists will be asked to “Paint the Town” – they may set up anywhere they wish within the village

ot sure how many actually noticed, but I’ve been somewhat preoccupied lately and have failed in my task of producing this column for the past couple of weeks. But, alas, I am back — much to the chagrin of my family and friends who are too often the fodder for the material contained herein.

Speaking of that, I ran into my cousin Mike last weekend, who was none too happy about the column I wrote about him awhile back. He said he doesn’t recall the incident in question.

Sounds a little like a Bill Clinton response to me ... selective amnesia. But, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt.

I’m just glad I’m the only one in the family with a forum to divulge long-lost secrets. I’d be scared to see some of my own aged stories divulged in print.

I am really glad to see the Elizabethtown Fish and Game Club reenergized. A lot of the credit should go to people like Alta Longware and club president Angie Wallace who were recently instrumental in organizing a local fishing derby on Lincoln Pond.

The turnout was phenomenal for the first event, with more than 150 adult and youth anglers attending and the fishing was fast and furious. Prizes and food for the barbecue lunch were all graciously donated by area businesses including Big Papa’s Tackle, Cobble Hill, Deer’s Head, Bub’s Pizza and Deli, Westport Hotel, the AuSable Inn, Outdoor News, Stewart’s, Cabela’s, and Dick’s Sporting Goods.

“Their contributions and the work of many volunteers made the derby a huge success,” Wallace said.

A complete list of winners appears on this page with photographs of the event.

The club is still looking for new members and meets the first Thursday of each month at

the club site on Maple Road in Elizabethtown.

All are invited to attend.

Dinner begins at 6 p.m., followed by a short business meeting and outdoor activities for kids.

For more information, call Wallace at 8733277.

I know one thing — the debate showed just how loyal our freshman Senator Kirsten Gillibrand is going to be to the constituency who put her in Washington.

On this debate, she came down squarely on the side of inner-city Democrats and voted “no.” As did Chuck Schumer, of course, but not before both used the debate as a bully pulpit for anti-gun rhetoric.

“The Thune amendment would invite chaos in our cities,” Gillibrand said about the proposal. Schumer added, “The passage of this amendment would have done more to threaten the safety of New Yorkers than anything since the repeal of the assault weapons ban.”

First of all, the assault weapons ban wasn’t repealed, it was allowed to expire and rioting in the streets hasn’t exactly transpired as a result.

Violent crime has steadily dropped before,

Gun incidents are now at an all-time low, while gun and ammunition sales are at an alltime high.

Further, statistics have proven time and again violent crime plummets in areas in which the citizenry is allowed licensed, concealed carry.

There is a lot to be said for the old adage that when seconds count, the police are just minutes away.

Handgun debate For those who haven’t heard, federal legislation that would have allowed those who hold a pistol permit to transport a handgun into nearly any other state fell short in the Senate last week by just two votes.

The move died for a number of reasons, most notably the fact opponents said it would undermine tough requirements put in place by some states for the issuance of a license to conceal a handgun — like mandatory training courses and background checks. New York and California are two such states.

Others argued the move was unconstitutional and would restrict states’ rights by forcing them to accept other states’ gun carry permits.

The first Annual Elizabethtown Fish and Game Club Fishing Derby was held on Lincoln Pond Sunday, July 12. The children competed for the greatest total length of five fish. The winners of each group were: Age 5 and under: Sierra Bronson with 11 3/4 inches; Ages 6-11: first place- Alex Larrow with 52 1/4 inches and second place was Savannah Bronson with 51 inches; Ages 12-15: first place was Nicolas Paquin with 94 3/4 inches and second place was Justin Heald with 85 inches.

The adults competed in several categories including the greatest weight of each pike and bass.

The first place pike winner was Shane Bronson with a weight of 4-pound, 10 ounces and second place was Scott Hutchins for a 3-pound, 11 ounce catch. The first place bass winner was Richard Lieberman with a weight of 4-pound, 8 ounces and second place was Matt Lieberman with a 4pound, 1 ounce bass.

Zach Hart won the longest crappie competition with a 12-inch fish.

The overall winners took home a variety of prizes including cash, caps, tackle boxes, rods and reels, and more, all donated by local merchants.

Brothers Marvin to benefit from golf tourney huge at this point because his attitude could make or break him.”

Besides golf, one thing helping to keep the boys’ spirits up has been the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the national organization that grants wishes for children with life-threatening illnesses.

In January, the Make-A-Wish foundation granted Brock an all-expenses-paid trip with Smitty and Connor to LaQuinta, Calif. for the Bob Hope Classic, a pro-celebrity golf tournament, where he had the chance to get a lesson from golf legend Arnold Palmer.

Just weeks ago, Connor had his Make-AWish granted when he, together with Brock and Smitty, were flown out to Scotland to attend this year ’s British Open.

“He said his favorite part was walking down the 15th fairway with John Daly,” Roemischer said. The trio also took some time to visit the world’s oldest golf course at the nearby St. Andrews Links.

Since the foundation has done so much for their family, Roemischer said the tournament in Westport will include contests to raise funds for Make-A-Wish in addition to Brock and Connor ’s medical fund. Most of all, though, the event itself represents something for the boys to look forward to.

“It’s just one of those little things we can do that is so huge for them,” she said. “It give them a little sparkle in their eye; a little more joy in their life.”

Check-in for the tournament is at 9 a.m.

Aug. 21. The format will be a four-man scramble with a 10 a.m. shotgun start. An entry fee of $75 per golfer includes 18 holes of golf, cart, food, on-course refreshments and prizes.

Several local businesses have already offered to contribute as green and tee sponsors, but Roemischer said more are still needed.

Pre-registration for participants, along with payment, is due by Aug. 14. More information, including an online registration application, can be found at www.brockssave.9k.com or by sending an email to margotroemischer@yahoo.com.

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Two teenage brothers faced with a life-threatening heart condition are inviting golfers from around the North Country to join them once again for a day out on the greens.

The second annual Brock and Connor Marvin Golf Tournament will be held at The Westport Country Club Friday Aug. 21, a fundraiser to support the two boys, who anticipate exorbitant out-of-pocket medical expenses.

After he suffered a heart attack in April 2008, doctors discovered 15-year-old Brock Marvin had dilated cardiomyopathy, a disease that causes the heart to grow three times its normal size and pump blood at a rate significantly lower than the average person.

Since then, Brock’s father, Walter “Smitty” Marvin III, mother Darlene Mitchell and stepmother, Margot Roemischer, have undertaken a continued effort to seek effective treatment for him, and raise funds to pay for it.

Last year ’s tournament, held at the Lake Placid Club, drew over 140 golfers and raised more than $12,000 for a medical trust fund set up to do just that. This year ’s tournament has some additional goals, however.

Last fall, the Marvins decided to have 13year-old Connor tested for the disease, too, since it is often the result of a genetic defect.

In March, doctors confirmed the test as positive.

“His heart had already started to enlarge at that time,” said Roemischer, noting that the early detection will hopefully provide an advantage in treatment.

Though both boys have been able to lead a relatively normal lifestyle, they have each had pacemakers implanted to prevent cardiac arrest and have had to give up any activities that will elevate their heart rate. As a result, golf has become one of their favorite sports.

Treatment for the disease is limited, and many patients eventually require heart

Brock, Smitty, and Connor Marvin, enjoy a walk down the 18th fairway on the Old Course at St. Andrews Links in Fife, Scotland. The three visited the site during a trip to the 2009 British Open that was paid for by the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Brock and Connor, who have both been diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy, will be the beneficiaries of a golf tournament scheduled for Aug. 21 at the Westport Country Club. transplants. A new treatment involving adult stem cells has shown promising results, but is extremely expensive and not widely available.

“We want to have a monetary foundation for these boys, because they’re going to have to go through this their whole lives,” said Roemischer. “Health insurance will cover much of it, but not all.”

Though doctors say Brock’s condition has worsened, it is currently manageable through medication and his pacemaker, Roemischer said, but the family is assessing his status on a day-to-day basis and it’s likely he’ll need a heart transplant within the next two years.

“His whole disposition is remarkably strong and optimistic,” she said, “which is
