SARANAC LAKE — In celebration of Small Business Saturday and the 2012 Holiday season, the Village of Saranac Lake Community Development Department, in partnership with Mountain Lake PBS, released a video on the new Borderless North website and YouTube
that encourages shoppers to shop local in Saranac Lake during the holiday season. The video, which is available at borderlessnorth.org/videos /the-12-gifts-of-saranaclake-shop-local, is set to the music of “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” and features owners, employees, and cus-

tomers from twelve downtown businesses singing about unique gifts and products that are available. The idea behind the video was to find a fun way to highlight the unique shopping opportunities that exist in Downtown Saranac Lake. By matching the creative nature of downtown mer-

WILMINGTON — Special Olympian athletes are practicing on White Face Mountain as their final training session together before they athletes compete in 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games in South Korea. Over 151 athletes from 37 states with the help of 60 area volunteers were in the Wilmington and Lake Placid from Dec. 11 through the 14. The athletes were coasting down the slopes at Whiteface, skating at the Olympic ice rink, and cross country training near the ski jumps. “This is the only time they train together with their fellow athletes in their sport or as team USA before heading off to world games,” Kimberly Purdy, director of communications for special olympics team USA said. “It’s interesting you bring all these athletes in from different states and they go from what we call state mode to sport mode they come in and representing their state to representing their USA.” Purdy said we were thrilled to be here the athletes were very excited to train at the former olympic site. The coming together of the athletes was the first time that team USA Special Olympics has come together as one prior to the 213 games. “The athletes and coaches were chosen months ago and the athletes work with coaches in their own state,” Purdy said. “But when you go to world games you have a world games coach so this is truely the first time all of us have come together. It’s been an amazing week. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

Zonker heads ‘Under the Sea’ on Saranac Lake Winter Carnival button SARANAC LAKE — “Doonesbury” cartoonist Garry Trudeau this week released his button design for the 2013 Saranac Lake Winter Carnival. Using the theme “Under the Sea,” Trudeau’s illustration shows “Doonesbury" character Zonker Harris dressed in blue trunks swimming underwater with a school of fish. Trudeau, who was raised in Saranac Lake, has been creating the Winter Carnival button design since 1981. Learn more about “Doonesbury” at doonesbury.slate.com. Buttons will go on sale this week in locations throughout the village of Saranac Lake, and a list of stores carrying them will be available on the Winter Carnival website soon. The buttons are $3 each. The next meeting of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee will be at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 19 in the large group instruction room of the Saranac Lake High
School. The Committee starts meeting weekly the first week of January. The meeting schedule is Jan. 2, 9, 16, 23 and 30 at 6 p.m. at the high school. The Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee, Inc. is a not-for-profit group of volunteers dedicated to organizing an annual mid-winter festival during the first two weeks of February. This 10-day, communitywide event traces its roots to a one-day Carnival held in 1897 by the Pontiac Club. The Carnival honors its heritage every year by building an Ice Palace from blocks of ice harvested from Lake Flower ’s Pontiac Bay, where Carnival events have been traditionally held for generations. For more information, visit the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival web site at www.saranaclakewintercarnival.com. The 2013 Carnival will take place Feb. 1-10.

Historic Saranac Lake receives preservation grant SARANAC LAKE — The Preservation League of New York State recently announced a grant to the not-for-profit group Historic Saranac Lake. The League made a grant of $6,500 toward the cost of completing a survey to inform a National Register Historic District nomination for the Helen Hill neighborhood. The Helen Hill neighborhood includes a number of “cure cottages,” dating back to when Saranac Lake was a popular destination for patients to “take the cure,” or be treated for tuberculosis. The “cure” consisted in resting in fresh air as much as possible, even in bitterly cold weather, combined with a high calorie diet, moderate exercise when possible, and efforts to keep the patients’ spirits up. Houses in the neighborhood represent a
variety of architectural styles, yet all retain distinguishing “cure cottage” features such as large glassed-in porches. These houses are threatened with inappropriate alterations, vacancy, and demolition by neglect. The National Register nomination, if successful, would enable building owners within the survey boundary to take advantage of New York State Rehabilitation Tax Credits. Adirondack Architectural Heritage, the project consultant, will research about 100 houses in the Helen Hill neighborhood for inclusion in the proposed historic district. “We launched this project because the neighborhood boasts such a high concentration of buildings illustrating Saranac Lake’s unique history as a tuberculosis health resort,” said Historic Saranac Lake’s Executive Director, Amy Catania.
Video Continued from page 1 a chance to promote Borderless North, its new online and on-air initiative that serves the Tri-Lakes, Plattsburgh, and Montreal. The magazine takes an up-close look into the life, history, and landscape that surrounds us. The on-air program is broadcast every Thursday at 8:30PM. “Our locally-owned Village businesses, not just those in Downtown, give so much to our community,” Mayor Clyde Rabideau said. “I encourage everyone to catch the spirit of this fun video and give back to our businesses and shop local this holiday season. Better yet, share the video with your friends and family who live out of town and encourage them to shop in Saranac Lake.”

Stars on Ice back in Lake Placid LAKE PLACID — The country’s premier figure skating production, Stars on Ice, is proud to announce the return of one of the sport’s most cherished athletes, Olympic Gold Medalist, World Champion and Three-Time U.S. National Champion, Dorothy Hamill. One of the most beloved American sports icons, Hamill won the hearts of skating fans around the world with her dominant performance in taking Gold at the 1976 Winter Olympic Games in Innsbruck, Austria. Hamill is credited with developing a new skating move; a camel spin that turns into a sit spin, which became known as the "Hamill Camel." The bobbed hairstyle that she wore during her Olympic performance started a fad, and she quickly became "America's Sweetheart." Joining a cast of Olympic, World and National Champion skaters on the 2012-13 Tour,
Hamill will help bid a fond farewell to longtime cast member Kurt Browning, who will be giving his final U.S. tour performances. The Stars on Ice “Now & Then” Tour will kick-off with a special performance at the Olympic Center in Lake Placid on Sunday, Dec. 30, at 7:30 p.m. The Emmy Award-winning production will be made into a one-hour syndicated television special, recording in Japan during a brief January tour. The special will be shown on network affiliates across the country this winter. Visit starsonice.com or check your local listings for more details on when you can see the highlights of the 2012-2013 show. Special on-ice seating is available upon request. Group discounts are available for parties of 10 or more. Tickets start at $25 and are available via starsonice.com, by phone at 523-3330 and the Olympic Center Box Office.

Athletes came from all over the county to practice. Linda Mills Director for the Special Olympics in Broward County Florida, said the opportunity for her athletes was great. “Whiteface was the largest mountain they’ve skied, its more scaled to the mountains they are going to see in Korea.” Mills said. In the athletes home state, training consists of sand and ocean views as opposed to the snow and mountain views in Wilmington. Mills said the athletes train with real skis and boots on the sand at John Llyod’s State Park at Danai Beach, Fla. “They do figure-eight races and get comfortable with the skis,” Mills said. “Some trainers feel our athletes are more ready for the snow than athletes with training near snow.” Amy Dugan, Director of Marketing and Communications for Special Olympics North America, said the Special Olympics is a global movement, with 4 million athletes in 170 nations. The first special games in the US were in 1968. Eunice Kennedy, sister of president John F. Kennedy, was the founder. The Kennedys, a famously athletic family, had a sister named Rosemary with an intellectual disability. “Eunice said well my sister can do all of those things

Merry Christmas! T
his week people around the world will celebrate Christmas. Regardless of one’s religious beliefs, there’s no denying Christmas is the world’s preeminent holiday. Its ideals of peace, love and joy are transcendent. And who doesn’t enjoy giving and receiving gifts? The look on a child’s face on Christmas morning makes the allure of Christmas easy to understand. Mankind has done its best to diminish Christmas over the centuries. War, hatred, prejudice, commercialism and a slew of other problems have taken a toll on us. Last week 20 elementary school children in Connecticut were murdered. That incomprehensible tragedy has no doubt cast a long shadow on this season’s holiday, but nothing has kept Christmas from steamrolling through time. We anticipate Christmas each year just as our parents, grandparents and thousands of other ancestors did. Christmas has certainly changed. While the Christian celebration of the birth of Jesus remains the central aspect of the holiday, there’s no denying it has become much more secular, much more commercialized. But through all the changes, Christmas remains the most important day on the calendar. This week families all over the world will gather to share the Christmas holiday. Dinners, gifts and stories from Christmas past will be part of the celebrations. These are particularly good days for most children. As Christmas nears their excitement builds. Just one more holiday television special and they may explode in a fit of spontaneous human enthusiasm. Christmas is all good for children. They’re not stressed about holiday shopping, not worried about getting the house ready for company. It should be just as good for adults. While it’s bound to be a few hectic days leading up to Christmas, take a few moments here and there to relax and enjoy the holiday spirit all around us. No amount of stress will keep Christmas from coming. We know that from the Dr. Seuss classic “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” It’s the story of the Grinch, an evil creature determined to stop Christmas from coming, who becomes a good-hearted being who finally understands the meaning of Christmas. After stealing all the village’s Christmas gifts the Grinch realizes he failed; Christmas had arrived anyway. “Maybe Christmas,” he thought, “doesn’t come from a store. “Maybe Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!” Christmas certainly does mean more. We shouldn’t need fictional children’s stories to remind us of that. As we celebrate perhaps we should think back to the very first Christmas. It gave the world hope of something better, much better. It placed love above all else. Love and hope. There can be no greater gifts. Merry Christmas!

We must turn tragedy into hope
T
his is normally the time of year when our thoughts turn to family, joy and the Christmas miracle, born in a manger some 2,000 years ago. Christmas 2012 will unfortunately forever be marred and remembered for the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School that took the lives of 20 young children and six brave teachers who desperately tried in vain to shield those lives from the evil that exists within our society. Politically, some may disagree with the term evil and choose instead to excuse the young man blamed for this event as being disturbed. But while many talk of armed guards at all schools, banning weapons of all kinds and greater protection, common sense tells us that events like these can never be completely prevented. Society must look at the culture we’ve created, the attitudes we’ve taken toward each other, the lack of respect and even the anger expressed when we disagree, on even the simplest of issues. Many will ask where was God? How could he allow this to happen? The Son of God made it clear, His Father ’s Kingdom is not of the earth. Man has been given dominion over this land. God gave us 10 simple rules to live by, but politically man has continued to say we know better. God did not allow this tragedy to happen. He has given us freedom of choice, but how we choose to use that freedom is all about our every day lives and the values and beliefs engrained in our culture. Over the last few years, on this our last issue before Christmas, I have written about my wishes for mankind. I hope you’ll join me this year in adding them to your wish list and together maybe we’ll see fewer of these horrific, unexplainable events that shake and shape this world we must all share. I wish for greater respect for all humans. That those who carry weapons and seek to do harm as an expression of hatred toward others, or even themselves that they could just respect people of different views, faith, skin color, sexual orientation or nationality. They call it world peace. I’m sure we all would love to witness it, even if only for a day. I wish for great opportunity for all children. To be raised in safe homes by loving parents, with food on the table, a warm roof overhead, a safe education system that prepares them for fruitful lives full of promise and a lifetime of Christmases everyday. I wish for the end to the many dreaded diseases, ailments and birth defects that affect the population. I see so many brave individuals who face life
with these burdens and do so with such courage and inspiration. I wish more people could experience faith in a supreme being and openly pracDan Alexander tice their faith by atThoughts from Behind the Pressline tending services each week and recognize that only through our trust in God will we overcome much of what troubles our world today. I wish more folks of good fortune would share some of what they have with others less fortunate. We all witness those who give from the heart regularly even at times when they don’t have much. Just imagine a world full of people helping and caring for each other. I wish our government and all governments would put aside their bickering and seek compromise for the people they govern by finding the common ground and recognizing the important leadership roles they play in advancing a God loving and peaceful society. I wish for Christmas 2012 to be a turning point in a world that seems to have lost its way. Despite remarkable technology, advancements in the medical and scientific fields we need the saving grace of the miracle child born so many years ago. Many may say the wishes above are nothing but fanciful dreams, but all those fanciful dreams could become reality if each of us were to embrace them and make them our own. It’s amazing what a little hope, faith and love can do in your life if you let them in and share them with all who you come in contact. Let’s face it, with all of our running around, Christmas preparations and gifting this season at the end of the day wouldn’t you rather trade all the gifts under this year ’s tree for any of the wishes listed above or at the very least that last Friday never occurred for those innocent souls in Connecticut? On behalf of the staff and family here at Denton Publications I would like to wish you and your family a very joyous and safe holiday, a prosperous new year and for my last wish, that you are granted all of your prayers and wishes. Please remember in your prayers all those affected by the tragedy in Connecticut and may God bless us one and all. Dan Alexander is owner and publisher of Denton Publications.

5 Essex County sells Horace Nye
In a heated meeting that was interrupted several times by members of the audience, the Essex County Board of Supervisors voted by a two-thirds majority, 2,683-1,233 (weighted vote), to sell the county-run nursing home to Centers for Specialized Care for $4,050,000 at its June 5 regular board meeting. Supervisors voting for the sale of the home included Jay Supervisor and Board Chairman Randy Douglas, Charles Harrington of Crown Point, Margaret Bartley of Elizabethtown, William Ferebee of Keene, David Blades of Lewis, Sue Montgomery Corey of Minerva, George Canon of Newcomb, Roby Politi of North Elba, Joyce Morency of St. Armand, Deb Malaney of Ticonderoga, Daniel Connell of Westport and Randy Preston of Wilmington. Moriah’s Tom Scozzafava, Gerald Morrow of Chesterfield, Sharon Boisen of Essex, Ronald Moore of North Hudson, Michael Marnell of Schroon and Ed Hatch of Willsboro voted against the sale. The county is currently in negotiations with Centers for Specialized care to come together on a contract of sale. Once in place, it will take about a year for state clearance.

Rail trail debate
Bruce the Moose
The simple euthanasia of a moose in the Wilmington Notch turned into a firestorm of protests and defending the decision to kill the injured animal, which earned the name Bruce the Moose. “Certainly euthanizing the moose wasn’t the outcome we wanted or hoped for, but it ended up being the most humane choice for the moose,” Lance Durfey (of the Department of Environmental Conservation) said. “We were hearing that people didn’t think what was done was right or they were angry the moose had to be euthanized, but what was done was part of the protocol for our department,” Durfey said. “We get involved when wildlife is impacting people, it’s one of our department’s responsibilities.” “The question is was there were any alternatives? They didn’t ask if there were any alternatives,” Pam Smith said. “What’s the difference of them taking him out sedated or dead?”
Members of the Saranac Lake Village Board Monday, Sept. 24 voted to ask the state Department of Transportation (DOT) and Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to “quickly review and update” the Remsen-Lake Placid Travel Corridor Unit Management Plan (UMP), which was last updated in 1995. The corridor is a railroad right-of-way currently used by the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society for tourist excursions along portions of the track, around Thendara (near Old Forge) and between Saranac Lake and Lake Placid. ARPS favors building a multi-use recreation path next to the rails between Tupper Lake and Lake Placid. The Adirondack Recreational Trail Advocates group favors taking out the tracks and replacing them with a recreation path. In the summer, both groups in the railway controversy had lobbied the Saranac Lake Village Board and other boards throughout the Tri-Lakes to choose a side. Some — such as the North Elba Town Board — sided with ARTA to get rid of the tracks. Others, such as the Harrietstown Town Board, lobbied the DEC and DOT to update the UMP.
APA rules, PROTECT! sues over ACR
The Adirondack Park Agency (APA) Jan. 20 approved the controversial Adirondack Club and Resort project in Tupper Lake with a 10-1 vote. At the Big Tupper Ski Area, mountain manager Bill Mozdzier, lift manager Clifford LaMere and volunteer T.J. King stood by their phones, waiting for the latest updates from the Adirondack Park Agency's Jan. 20 meeting. When the word came that the Adirondack Club and Resort permit had been approved, LaMere was moved to tears. “It’s emotional, it’s amazing, it’s a long time coming,” LaMere said. “I started in this process three years ago to revive and maintain the mountain and it’s just phenomenal.” In March, Protect the Adirondacks, based out of Schenectady, along with the Atlantic Chapter of the Sierra Club and three Tupper Lake landowners sued the Adirondack Park Agency, the Department of Environmental Conservation, and the developer of the 700plus unit ACR project in Tupper Lake. “It is now up to Gov. Cuomo, who has proven he can get things done in Albany, to give the agency charged with preserving the largest natural area east of the Mississippi,” said former APA Executive Director Bob Glennon, who is the attorney for the lawsuit.

TUPPER LAKE — The Adirondack Public Observatory announces a lecture presented by Dr. Joshua Thomas to be held Friday Dec. 28, at 7 p.m. at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake. There are two comets recently discovered that are heading toward the sun and will pass close to the earth. In fact, the comets are expected to be bright enough to be seen by the naked eye, and possibly so bright that they would be visible during the day. This talk will cover some basic information about how comets work. Where do comets come from? What are comets made of? Why do comets have two tails? Why do we have Jupiter to thank for the impending visits of these two comets next year? Dr. Thomas, a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at Clarkson University, currently teaches introductory physics classes and will be teaching an astrophysics course in the spring semester. He received a B.S. in Physics with a concentration in Astrophysics in 2004 , an M.S. in Physics in 2006, and a PhD. in Physics in August 2012, all from the University of Toledo. He is also involved with the restoration and upgrade of the Reynolds Obser-

Life and death ... in a small town
B
orn in 1956, I remain the product of a lifetime spent primarily in small town America. One of my earliest memories is of watching a stampede of cows race by me, as they left the pasture to be fed. I recall greeting them with a polite “Hello Cow!” as they hurtled past the open gate. I also remember my mother’s frantic calls, as she ran up the hill to save me from the thundering herd. The memory comes from a time when we lived on Wheelbarrow Hill Road, near Great Barrington, Massachusetts, where my father worked as the principal at a local elementary school. During the summers, Dad also served as a riflery instructor at a local summer camp. My life was pretty much normal for a 195060’s era kid. It was a time when children were still kept relatively innocent to adult affairs. Telephone calls were dialed with just three numbers and television shows were mostly westerns. ‘Beatles’ were still just insects we collected to mount on pins in a little cardboard box. I was just another innocent kid in an innocent age, until I started school. That is when I learned to fear the ‘Commies!’ I don’t really remember when I was first introduced to the concept of hating the Commies, but I do recall the first time I was instructed to hide under my desk
at school for an air-raid drill. My initial fears were soon overcome, when I realized the horde of chewing gum stuck to the bottom of the classroom desks. In following years, I came to appreciate the threat of Commie attacks, especially after the air-raid drill sirens saved me from a particular test I had never bothered to prepare for. The best of all were the air raid drills that required students to huddle in the hallways. There were a lot of shenanigans going on when we were all crouched down and lined up, head to butt along the cinderblock walls. None of our teachers every bothered to explain how the old block walls would actually protect us from an atomic blast. However, as youngsters we dutifully followed instructions from our teachers, and cursed the Commies, even if we didn’t understand why. It certainly was a far different time. I realized the Commies were really out to get us in the spring of 1960, when airplanes rattled the windows of our house on Rugar Street in Plattsburgh. Our house was directly in the flight path. Throughout the dark night, bombers left Plattsburgh Air Force Base in response to the shooting down of a U-2 spy plane piloted by Col. Gary Powers. Those damned commies! Despite experiencing such disturbing incidents at such an early age, I remained relatively oblivious to the realities and dangers of the adult world, probably because it was also very easy to get lost in the western culture. And by western culture, I mean television shows such as Wagon Train, Roy Rogers, Bonanza, Have Gun Will Travel, Johnny Yuma, Maverick, Gunsmoke and dozens more. With westerns, it was easy to figure out who the good guys were because they always wore the white hats! Back then, my favorite toy was a pearl handled, six shooter, and all little boys played with guns, some of them even had caps that would spark, bang and send smoke in the air. Looking back through the eyes of age, I never really consid-
Valley News - 7 ered the fact that guns actually killed people. The reality that guns were dangerous weapons simply wasn’t on my radar screen, despite the fact that President John F. Kennedy had been shot and killed when I was in second grade. The realities, and the accompanying terrors of the power of a gun came to me unexpectedly in 1966, when a crazy man by the name of Charles Whitman climbed to the top of an observatory tower on the campus of the University of Texas. He killed 14 people and wounded 12. Like most people in the country, I was stunned and scared. At the time, my father worked at Plattsburgh State, and it sure seemed to me that there were a lot of towers on that campus. I believe the incident signaled the end of innocence for many citizens of the Boomer Generation. I know it did for me. Unfortunately, the insanity did not end there, and it appears such events have continued seemingly unabated. It also appears they are becoming more frequent, and our responses have been less effective. Like most of the nation, my heart sunk as word of the most recent such incident rattled across the television news and other media outlets. As I listened to unfolding news of the massacre, there was an old fear rumbling in the back of my mind. It was a ping of fate that hadn’t been disturbed since the 1960’s. It struck a particular nerve, as my younger brother now serves as principal for the Red Hook Elementary School, which is located less than a half hour’s drive from Sandy Hook. My heartfelt sorrow and prayers now go out to yet another traumatized town in small, town America. Connecticut Governor Malloy summed it up when he explained, “evil visited this community today. “ I know there never be an explanation, since there is no rational answer for an irrational act. However, as a nation, we must begin to work together on a process to put an end to such madness. And we should all remember, “There but for the grace of God…” Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.
