Essex County PLAY WILL PAY HOMAGE opposes new TO THE PAST state tax plan Worst case: New PILOT proposal could cost county almost $1 billion By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | A new executive budget proposal on how to pay land taxes within the Adirondack Park drew the ire of Essex County lawmakers on Monday. County Real Property Services Director Charli Lewis reported that meeting the proposal to change the way the state pays land taxes from its current form into a PILOT program could cost the county as much as $950 million if state-owned property ultimately became exempt. “The plan is to freeze the tax rate at the 2018 school and 2018 town and county, then it would only grow based on cost of living or market value adjustment, whichever one is less,” Lewis said. Lewis added there could also be a loss of nearly $4 million in taxable value if the state passes a 480-B tax exemption, allowing smaller land owners to enter into woodland protection deals with the state. » State tax plax Cont. on pg. 2

MORIAH | Twenty years of drama at Moriah Central School will be celebrated by an original play this spring. Drama Club adviser Melissa Reilly said the play is a time-travel story using many of the characters and props from two decades of Moriah productions. She said school alumni who appeared in previous plays may want to return for an encore. “I went through 20 years of performances and found scenes,” she said. “This is something we’ve been talking about. We knew we wanted a time-travel play. We have 10 alumni so far who want to come back.” She also found props from many previous plays that will be incorporated

into the new production. The play’s premise is that Moriah is going to shut down drama and everyone must work together to prevent it. “Previous plays have had a lack of magic, but not this one,” she said. “Good fairies and witches come and grant them a gift of time travel. But there are also bad fairies who want to stop them.” Th rough time travel, the students can find help. “They collect magical characters: Robin Hood, Cinderella, the Baker’s Wife,” Reilly said. The play has lots of chase scenes, and some cameos in those chases. “We’re trying to incorporate the personalities of the actors in the characters,” she said. “In order to create convincing improvisational dialogue for characters, the students need the characters’ back stories, personalities, motivation, etc. which I provide for them,” Reilly said. “We’ve done a great job finding the ‘voices’ of characters of old.” “It’s fun trying to become the character,” student Jon Gibbs said. “I love drama.”

Reilly can be contacted by email at mreilly@moriahk12.org. The play will be performed on the Moriah stage the weekend of May 18. “The script outline was written with a team of alumni and current students,” Reilly said. “Some veteran actors are using improvisation to create the very funny dialog. Because this is our script, we have the flexibility of writing and rewriting to fit our cast.” Student Brittany Werber said they’re still working on the production. “Whatever comes to mind we say,” she said. “We don’t know our characters yet. It’s definitely a different experience.” Drama productions at Moriah started with “The Wizard of Oz,” she said, as a joint class project in 1998. “The following year, the Drama Club was created and has grown each year,” Reilly said. “We wouldn’t still be going if not for everybody’s help.” The nostalgic school play may became an annual event at Moriah, she said. “We hop to continue to tradition of facilitating a weekend of zany humor at Moriah each spring for many years to come,” Reilly said. ■

» State tax plan Cont. from pg. 1 Under the PILOT program, Lewis estimated that if it were in effect this year, the effect of the proposal would increase the overall tax rate in Essex County by 52cents per $1,000 of assessed property value. “If we raise the same levy that we raised last year, you are looking at an 8 percent increase across the board,” Essex County Manager Dan Palmer said. “The only difference is how the state pays their share of the taxes. Gov. Patterson once said they were going to stop paying taxes on APA land and there was enough backlash at the time it did not happen.” Lewis said the state would reimburse counties for the 480-B only if it had a 1 percent impact on the tax levy, which would mean Essex County would have to lose roughly $68 million to qualify. Palmer added the state is the majority shareholder of the Adirondack Park.

“When you own 51 percent of the property, you are a major player in how the taxes are paid and this could be a tremendous shot at the local taxpayers,” he said.

BITTER RESPONSE

“They are telling you what the PILOT agreement is and you have no say in the matter,” Palmer added. “You don’t have that anywhere else.” Essex Supervisor Ron Jackson said he’s long expected the announcement. “They take our lands and with that take our building rights and public land,” he said. “You can see where this is heading and they are going to end up not paying any taxes and we are going to have to pick up the costs for the services the people who come through here demand. It is what we have all been afraid of and now it is coming to a reality.” Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow said, “This is why I hate the state.”

Members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors are not pleased with a pair of new proposals by the state of New York which would potentially ween Adirondack communities of millions in tax dollars. File photo He continued: “They speak with a forked tongue, they do not practice what they preach. They tell you to do shared services and tell you you can’t do what you are already doing. Who do they represent? Not our taxpayers.” Lewis Supervisor Jim Monty said he has heard a lot of proposals from Gov. Andrew Cuomo over the past week, but none that help those who live within the Blue Line. “He has a lot of great ways to make the North Country prosper, but none of them are in the Park, and it’s just another step to force the people who live in the Adirondack Park out,” Monty said. “If they don’t pay their taxes, then that is another step to get people to leave and then they will have ‘their’ park to themselves.”

“If we open the door up and let them let their foot in and they will get to a point where they will only pay what they damn well want to please,” said Newcomb Supervisor Robin DeLoria. “We should put our foot down in lead, and not in paper. It will hurt locals more than we could imagine.” “This is something that should be at the top of our list when we go down to Albany,” said Ron Moore of North Hudson. “We need to circle the wagons on this.” Essex County Board of Supervisors Vice Chairman Shaun Gillilland said the board will have a chance to address this concern with state lawmakers at a meeting with state lawmakers later this week. ■

Adirondack lawmakers call for higher cell phone towers

BERF

State Sen. Betty Little and Assemblymen Billy Jones and Dan Stec say ensuring higher towers to improve cell phone reception is a chief priority during this year’s legislative session. Photo by DJ Alexander

Towers necessary for public safety, say state lawmakers

said. “Fewer of them, but more coverage.” It’s a key issue the senator said she’ll be pursuing during the current legislative session. Past cell towers in Duane and Paul Smiths were height-restricted by the Adirondack Park Agency, she said. But shorter towers result in less coverage, she said. At Paul Smiths, students resorted to lining up at a single spot by the lake to snatch a signal. Environmental groups have raised concerns over the impact of towers on the viewshed, but the senator believes the attitude towards the structures has softened in recent years. And recent cosmetic improvements have made towers less intrusive, she said. “Maybe I’m totally wrong, but I don’t believe people object to seeing a cell tower anymore,” Little said. “The trees grow, and I haven’t seen a cell tower yet that grows.”

PLATTSBURGH | With the state nearing the home stretch on its universal broadband project, state Sen. Betty Little and Assemblymen Billy Jones and Dan Stec are pivoting to ensure better cell phone reception for local visitors and residents. The lawmakers jointly called for higher cell towers in the Adirondack Park at a legislative breakfast in Plattsburgh last week. The measure will not only aid in communication, but is critical for health, public safety and the economy, the officials said at the North Country Chamber of Commerce-sponsored event. “I want to see taller cell towers,” Little

PROPOSED LEGISLATION

In addition to highlighting the need for higher cell towers, Little has sponsored legislation designed to improve telecommunications by cutting back regulations on the installation of new wireless equipment. Wireless infrastructure providers can now bring targeted improvements through the installation of small cell networks on existing utilities, Little said.

on existing facilities — including the exemption of minor modifications from local zoning and permitting laws — would help attract investment by providing a “predictable and more cost-effective path forward” for providers, according to the senator. Relaxing regulatory efforts, said Little, may also incentivize wireless carriers to maximize co-location at existing sites rather than construct new ones. The Wireless Broadband Eligible Facility Permitting Act would amend existing law to provide for a uniform municipal regulation and permitting process. While supported by providers like AT&T, the New York State Conference of Mayors and Municipal Officials disapproves of the bill, citing a loss of local autonomy and vague language that may lend itself to litigation. Furthermore, the default approval of wireless installations may lead to equipment being installed on uninspected equipment, a measure that may lead to safety concerns. “This legislation would greatly hinder those efforts as well as the efforts of municipal officials to insure the wireless technology is safely installed,” the group wrote in a memo. Little is undeterred and said improving communications technology is a matter of life and death — especially in the Adirondacks. “I’m hopeful having a statewide, uniform process for eligible wireless facility upgrades will encourage the wireless industry’s continued capital deployment in the state,” Little wrote in a recent op-ed. “I couldn’t overstate how needed this is in the North Country.” She cited a conversation with the widow of a motorist who died on the Adirondack Northway with his phone on his chest. “(He was) unable to make the 911 connection that would have saved his life and prevented the severe frostbite and emotional trauma his wife suffered on a very cold January night alone in the Adirondacks,” Little wrote. ■

zones — and that’s to say nothing of the lack of coverage deep in the Adirondack interior. He oversaw the installation of two towers when he chaired the Franklin County Legislature, and questioned if the environmental impacts differ when it comes to height. “It’s just as environmentally harmful to put up a 60-foot tower as it is a 90-foot tower,” he said. “Why don’t we put up higher towers and less of them?” he said. “You can make them very pretty now.” Stec likened the evolution of acceptance of the structures to the faded furor surrounding fire towers decades ago. The state Department of Environmental Conservation was pushing to remove the structures in order to preserve the vista, he said. “They were trying to tear them down 30 years ago. Now they’re preserving them and putting money back into them.” The time is now right for a “reasonable, intelligent approach” to cell towers, he said. “I think we’ll be surprised at the lack of resistance to a reasonable height increase that’s going to improve that,” Stec said. The Adirondack Council has been outspoken against a loosening of cell tower rules in the past, but didn’t immediately respond for comment before this story went to print on Tuesday morning.

County ups pay for bus drivers Essex County increases wages, but asks state to ease training restrictions By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | The Essex County Board of Supervisors went ahead with a proposed resolution to increase the rate of pay for their bus drivers, but not without discussing their concerns over a lack of drivers. “We have had a number of those who have gone down to take the test and have not been able to pass it,” said Manager Dan Palmer on Monday. “I think the state has a disconnect between what it takes to drive a bus and a full CDL license.” “This is a statewide issue, not just Essex County,” Lewis Supervisor Jim Monty said. “I think this is one way to help, but I think the state also needs to back off some of the restrictions.”

Minerva Supervisor Stephen McNally said regulations were most likely not going to change. “You see an issue with a bus driving incident every week,” McNally said. “You are not going to be able to lighten the restrictions.” “I think it is a big responsibility driving the bus, whether its one person or 10 people,” Schroon Supervisor Mike Marnell said. “I think if anything, the rules will become more strict.” Marnell also said he felt instead of raising the drivers one pay grade from level 5 to level 6, they should increase the drivers to a level 7. “I stand by my recommendation that this stays at a grade 6,” Palmer replied. “These are some of the best funded programs in the state. If you are going to fund them, you have to have drivers. If you are unable to get drivers because they are not passing the tests, then it becomes incumbent on the state to take a look at and see why so many are not passing the test.” Palmer said many drivers are being asked to make precise sweeps on their buses, including going under the bus, which are not needed. “To require them to get under the bus and determine if they are mechanically sound to be on the road is too much,”

Essex County bus drivers will see an increase in their pay, but lawmakers feel more should be done to help increase the number of qualified candidates by the state. File photo

Palmer said. “That is why we have bus mechanics, I think the disconnect comes with something like this.” The busing program is an strong program in Essex County, which includes the bus program in Lake Placid, he said. “I think one of the big parts as to why Lake Placid has been successful in landing some of these events is because of transportation, but to have transportation, you have to have drivers,” he said. ■

Holdup woman pleads guilty Christine Tomko helped rob the Hague Market By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

Christine Tomko

HAGUE | The woman who helped her boyfriend hold up the Hague Market and shoot the owner has pleaded guilty in Warren County Court. Christine W. Tomko, 28, Thurman, entered guilty pleas to felony first-degree robbery for the market stickup and burglary for one of

File photo

the break-ins she and boyfriend Vittorio L. Campano, 26, did before they went to the store. She accepted a plea agreement to 12 to 24 years in state prison when she is sentenced. Tomko admitted that on April 25, 2017 she went to the general store in Route 8 in Hague with Campano and acted as a lookout and driver for him. Campano has already pleaded guilty to attempted murder and other crimes, and is expected to be sentenced to 30 years in state prison. He shot store owner Jim Rypkema four times in the torso with a stolen .22-caliber handgun and stole less than $100 from the store. Tomko said she went in the store first to check for customers, bought a bag of potato

chips, then came out and told Campano there was no one else inside except Rypkema. Campano wore a mask and he and Tomko then went back in and held up the store. She did not wear a mask. The pair were caught two days later after State Police circulated a description of a car parked near the store during the robbery that was caught on surveillance video. Tomko had posted on her Facebook page that she needed gas money for a new job in Saratoga Springs. After her arrest, her page was flooded with comments from people telling her she didn’t have to shoot someone to get it. Tomko was represented by attorney Greg Teresi. ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

I believe in America

Last week, I reﬂected on an event from the past but didn’t have the space to bring it into the By Dan Alexander context of today’s • PUBLISHER • governmental affairs. I believe in America, even with all her faults, warts and indisputable past. I believe each generation has the opportunity to learn from the past, and do their best not to erase the past, but to correct where needed. I believe in the rule of law, fairness and equality for all who call America home. I believe we are each responsible for pulling our weight, working hard and helping others who are less fortunate. I believe in a Supreme Being who has blessed our nation and expects the very best from each of us. These are the beliefs that were consistent with my upbringing at home, in school, at church, and through our media culture. Right always triumphed, even against might. I am a little confused at some of today’s cultural changes. Not long ago, nearly every American could readily agree with those statements made above. Today in some circles, it’s a risk to even go on the record making such declarations. The recent release of the controversial Republican FISA memo and the yet to be released interpretations from the Democrats and the judicial system is a reﬂection on how things have changed. Interpretation implies that the base facts have different definitions leading to different outcomes. I learned growing up that nothing was more important to our belief in America than basic fairness. When you were wrong or wronged someone, else no matter how trivial, you were required to own up to it and apologize. Today with facts so blurred, I wonder if we’ve lost our way and how this current state of affairs will play out in future generations. Will they find the solutions that evade us today? Will some major unforeseen tragic event bring us back to a more united front or will the various factions cause the further splintering of our country? It seems clear given the outrageous language and actions we see coming from our leaders that we need a major course correction to get back on track. Civility, respect, and the truth must surface above all else. I for one believe in America and pray that our best days are still ahead as we find our way out of this current state of unrest. ■

From the Editorial Board

Kudos to the state on broadband. Now it’s up to the public to hold providers accountable The state is nearing the end of its fouryear quest to provide universal broadband by the end of 2018. Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the disbursement of the third and final round of grant monies in a visit to Plattsburgh last week. The governor announced nearly $210 million in direct state investment. Altogether, the state has pledged $500 million, which will be topped with $170 million in federal funds and an equal amount of private monies, making the initiative a $1 billion-plus undertaking. Once the projects have been implemented, the state promises 100 percent broadband access statewide. To further break it down, 99.9 percent of New Yorkers will have high speed access, which the state has defined as 100 megabits per second. That leaves the remaining 0.1 percent of the state’s most “rural and remote areas” — which we can only assume is the Adirondacks — to receive speeds of 25 mbps. Zeroing on any more precise numbers is a crapshoot, as the state and winning grant providers have said it’s too early to provide that information. But while the numbers seem infinitesimal, broadband means life and death for our Adirondack communities. Even just one household or U.S. Census block left behind could be devastating. The state pledges that the remaining fraction will be covered through satellite service offering speeds of at least 25 mbps. “One-hundred percent internet access in the North Country,” Cuomo assured

An artist’s work, and his conduct, should be separate To the Editor: Elizabeth Izzo demonstrated a well-balanced approach to the news of the National Gallery of Art decision to cancel the Chuck Close exhibit (The Sun, Feb. 3, 2018). Elizabeth writes, “... it’s important to note that the court of public opinion and the court of law are two separate things,” implying allegations of sexual misconduct without judicial review are not sufficient grounds for punishment. Yet, the National Gallery decided to punish this artist by denying him the crowning achievement to his long, successful career. In closing, she asks: “Should an artist’s conduct and the work he created be separate, too?” She left this a rhetorical question. I’ll provide the answer. Yes! The Uffizi Gallery in Florence

So here’s the question: Does it really count as a win if homes are ostensibly wired for broadband, but the service doesn’t work? Don’t take it from us, but rather your friends and neighbors across the Adirondacks — from Wilmington to Chesterfield to Indian Lake — who have called us for years with their concerns about Frontier Communications. We’ve even spoken with some folks who have indicated they will move because they’re so frustrated. We want to be clear that we support the New NY Broadband Program, and state officials have worked tirelessly in tackling such a visionary project. They deserve to be commended, and so does the governor. The program has seen many roadblocks — many of which are outside of Albany’s control, including financial hiccups from providers and the utility companies who must work in tandem with them to install equipment. Ultimately, the task of monitoring these projects after their completion falls to the state Public Service Commission, who promised to work closely with the BPO to ensure that companies receiving awards, including Frontier, provide good customer service. The state has done their part. Now it’s up to customers to ensure their complaints are funneled to the appropriate place, and exercise their rights as consumers to hold these tech companies accountable. -The Sun Editorial Board ■

has not sealed a gallery dedicated to Renaissance master Caravaggio, a known thug and cold-blooded murderer, nor removed his paintings. Botticelli was proactive and burned many of his own paintings when he learned that the Church had condemned them as immoral. The works of Picasso, a serial misogynist, have not been removed from the public eye. Poor Chuck Close, wheelchairbound for over 40 years, re-inventor of the art of portraiture, a modern master assured of his place in the pantheon of history’s great artists, finds himself crucified in the court of public opinion. Long after those who have proven politics to be the deciding factor to show an artist’s work will have fallen into the dustbin of history, Chuck Close will be remembered as the great artist he is. Oh, and poor Charlie Rose. I ask only rhetorically, what man has not found himself, at some point, in that embarrassing, awkward position of pursuing what he

dignitaries last week. Details on the satellite service are still fuzzy, state lawmakers admitted. We’ve heard some local residents criticize the state for throwing in the towel and saying “good enough.” We disagree with that. Thirty percent of New Yorkers, or about 2.4 million locations, lacked access to broadband when the state Broadband Program Office launched the program in 2015. It’s no small feat to wire not only the state’s most remote places, but arguably the most isolated communities in the entire country. The state really has entered unchartered territory with this project, which is said to be studied by other states as a blueprint. However, we do have concerns about handing so much grant money to companies like Frontier Communications, who appear to have a long track record of providing sub-par service to existing subscribers. We reported this week that Frontier has been the recipient of nearly $44 million in state funds, including nearly $10 million as part of last week’s announcement. Concerns about their service are prolific across the North Country, with even the Essex County Board of Supervisors chairman arguing the Connecticut-based provider shouldn’t be awarded funds if they cannot provide the service — especially to existing customers. Frontier hasn’t really done anything to assuage our concerns, issuing only vague promises that subscribers will receive 100 mbps.

We want leaders — not children To the Editor: I was reading the Feb. 3 edition. How tired I am becoming with the antics of our elected so-called leaders. In the opinion section, I read that the state purchased more land and removed it from the tax rolls. Also in the same article, they admit that the state is facing a $4.4 billion shortfall. It does not sound like fiscal leadership to me. Then in the letters section, I read how childish that one party’s politicians are acting just trying to get elected. We the people want leaders not children, like those who acted like spoiled children at the State of the Union.

Also the letter on the media is an opinion that I cannot understand. I have stopped reading the Post Star because of its leftleaning stance (perceived or not, my opinion) along with declining content and increased cost. Pat Farrell, Brant Lake ■

I’m in my late 60s, have a reasonably secure retirement income and am not likely ever to be a burden on the public purse. With that said, I am not the sort of immigrant we need. We have an aging population that over the next few decades, will place an increasing burden on taxpayers unless we do something about it. » Letters Cont. on pg. 7 or omissions or typographic errors.

» Letters Cont. from pg. 6 The answer is not, as Paul Ryan and others suggest, to slash Social Security and Medicare benefits. Rather, it is to reverse the demographic trend by encouraging increased immigration, particularly of young people with a long working life ahead of them. Last September, President Trump took 800,000 DACA beneficiaries hostage and is now offering to release them for a ransom that consists of his beloved wall and a set of proposals that would drastically reduce legal immigration. Exactly the wrong direction. We need to have a rational debate on immigration policy that strikes a balance among three principles: First, we need to meet the needs of employers

for a well-balanced, well-trained workforce, be it for dairy farm workers in New York or Ph.Ds in Silicon Valley, and to encourage creativity, diversity and entrepreneurship. Secondly, we should show compassion for those already here by allowing them to sponsor members of their immediate families, promoting family cohesion. Finally, we must live up to our international responsibilities towards refugees who are fleeing conflict and persecution. It is shameful that we have done so little at a time when refugee migration is at its highest since the second world war. It’s time to elevate the discussion on immigration to a real policy debate and not just fear-mongering and hostage-taking. Alan Brown, Saranac Lake ■

Is paid homeschooling the answer? What if we paid parents $20,000 per student, per year, to home school their children? If you have two By Frank Pagano kids, that’s a $40,000 • GUEST COLUMNIST • salary, $20 an hour, to stay home with your children and teach them. If this sounds like another harebrained socialist giveaway, read on. Our school district spends about $25,000 annually per student for public education. A 2017 study in the International Journal of Business and Social Research concluded that “the home school educational environment is as effective as the traditional public school model for both males and females at all grade levels.” Most other studies referenced in the article found that home schooling is far superior, yielding college ready students by age 16. If only a quarter of the parents opted for this program, our little school district would save $1 million annually. Families wouldn’t need two wage earners, so the cost of going to work (driving, day care, cafeteria food, clothing, et cetera) would be eliminated. A 2016 survey by CareerBuilder estimated that the average employee spends about $3,000 per year just to go to work. The intangible benefits are more significant. Safety is a big one. The government says 21 percent of public school students from ages 12-18 are bullied. That problem essentially goes away. There are, on average, 15 crimes per 1,000 public school students in the United States. That’s quadruple the national crime rate. One in four high schoolers report that “someone had offered, sold, or given them an illegal drug on school property” in 2016. School buses are 20 times more fatal but, due to hysteria surrounding school shootings, most schools now resemble minimum security detention facilities. So students dutifully prac-

tice lineup and lockdown procedures, which may benefit them later in life if they become incarcerated. Meanwhile, at least in this state, many school districts don’t require students to wear seat belts while riding on buses! Home schoolers don’t have any of these risks. Another insidious problem, thankfully not around here, is gang recruitment inside public schools. A recent article in the New Yorker describes the tragedy of Long Island children preyed upon by MS-13. Socialization and athletics are often cited as compelling reasons not to home school. There’s no research to support the perceived under-socialization of home schoolers. It can be argued that our public school culture (destructive cliques, bullying, violence, drug, tobacco and alcohol abuse, etcetera) traumatizes children. The traditional practice of grade level segregation by age leads to social stratification. Meanwhile the home-schooled student learns in a safer place and spends more time with a diverse age group. School team athletics can’t be replicated at home but teams exist outside of school (such as Little League). And individual youth athletes (gymnasts, for example) competing at the highest levels are home schooled by necessity. Call me a traditionalist but with our schools ranked among the lowest in the OECD, aren’t academics way more important than school sports? Besides academics, cost and safety the home schooled student is less likely to retreat into destructive cliques and outsource their individuality to them. A student who learns to think independently, informing themselves by critical thinking, will naturally be more resistant to commercial marketing (which permeates our schools) and government propaganda. So — that may ultimately be the reason why this idea will go nowhere. ■ — Frank Pagano lives in Jay

Olympic Update

Olympic Villages open in Pyeongchang Olympic Truce depicted by mural as in all games since Turin in 2006

Pyeongchang 2018 Olympic Villages opened doors to their athlete’s quarters last week, ready to welcome some 2,900 By Kim Dedam competitors for the XXIII Winter Games on Feb. 9. • COLUMNIST • A few U.S. teams arrived over last weekend, including TeamUSA speedskaters. Longtrack speedskater Brian Hansen shared photos of the new digs, including one tweet of the ice track he had nearly to himself. Hansen is from Illinois. International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach visited the athletes’ rooms, venues and athletic training facilities, dining commons and living quarters ahead of the formal opening. “This village will allow the athletes not only to prepare for competition but it will allow the athletes to enjoy the spirit of the Olympic Games and to show what the Olympic Games are about,” he said in a news announcement. “They are about getting to know each other, they are about making friends, they are about understanding each other, they

are about competing with each other but at the same time sharing your meal and celebrating together. And this will all happen here in this place, in this Olympic Village.” The IOC President visited the Gangneung Olympic Village, where most athletes competing in the ice events will live during the games. He also visited the coastal venues where he saw the Curling Centre, Hockey 1, Gangneung Ice Arena and Gangneung Oval. On Monday, Feb. 5, Bach inaugurated the official Olympic Truce Mural. According to Olympic history, “the Olympic Truce dates back to Ancient Greece, where athletes, artists and their families, as well as ordinary pilgrims, could travel in total safety to participate in or attend the Olympic Games, and return afterwards to their respective countries.” Since the 2006 Olympic Winter Games in Turin, the truce has been represented by a mural. And athletes and officials who take part in the Games are invited to sign it, inspiring peace through sport, IOC said in unveiling the truce on Monday. “Given the special circumstances, the time and place of these Olympic Winter Games, it should be clear for everyone why this Olympic Truce is as relevant today as it was in ancient times. “More than ever, the world needs the Olympic values of peace and friendship,”

The Olympic Village in PyeongChang unveils the Olympic Truce Mural, created by South Korean artist Jaeseok Lee Photo by IOC/Greg Martin IOC President Bach said. Last November, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the resolution “Building a peaceful and better world through sport and the Olympic Ideal.” The consensus for the Olympic Truce resolution included both the Republic of Korea and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, as well as the future hosts of the Olympic Games: Japan, China, France and the United States of America. “The resolution calls on the nations of the world to uphold the Olympic Truce from seven days before the start of the Olympic Games in February 2018 until seven days after the Paralympic Games,” IOC said. “This is an opportunity to recognise the power of sport to bring the world together in peaceful competition and create oppor-

tunities for dialogue and reconciliation.” The Opening Ceremony begins on Friday, Feb. 9. It will be aired live on NBC stations, starting at 6 a.m. EST. NBC will replay the ceremony on Friday evening beginning at 8 p.m. EST. ■ — Kim Dedam will be writing a column on all things Olympic-related as the 2018 Winter Olympic Games commence on Feb. 9.

» Sheriff Cont. from pg. 1 By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga Town Police Department has a new acting chief in Michael Mawn. Mawn, a retired New York State Police trooper who lives in Brant Lake, has been a part-time officer on the Ticonderoga force since mid 2017. He takes over for Acting Chief Michael LaVallie, who works for the Warren County Sheriff’s Department and was helping the town until a permanent chief could be hired. LaVallie issued a public statement on his departure. “Doing what one feels is in the best interest of public safety, to give the absolute best quality of service, and what is expected by the public of the department, is not always politically correct,” LaVallie said. “A man can stand by one’s word and integrity and at the end of the day, that is what is owed of the fine men and woman that make the Ticonderoga Police Department. So be it.” Social media postings said there was a difference of opinion between the acting chief and town officials on promotion of an officer to the rank of investigator. Ticonderoga Police haven’t had a full-time investigator since 2014. LaVallie had already submitted a resignation letter effective Feb. 26, because he’d only planned to take the job for a limited period, but changed it to take effect Jan. 29. Ticonderoga Town Supervisor Joseph Giordano said he could not comment on why

LaVallie left because it’s a personnel matter. “I am grateful to Mike Mawn for wanting to step up into the police chief ’s position,” Giordano said. “With his 26 years of experience with the New York State Police and his eight months on the job in Ti, he sees the potential for the Ticonderoga Police Department and is eager to get to work elevating its level of service to the community.” Chief Mark Johns has been on administrative leave since last year and is expected to retire in March, after which officials have said a new chief will be hired. There will be a state Civil Service test for police chief held in March. After that, based on the results of the test, a list of certified candidates will be presented to the town to use in hiring a new chief. Mawn served with State Police Troop L on Long Island for 22 years before retiring. Prior to that, he was assigned to Troop B from 1992-95. “When they get a viable list of candidates my time (as acting chief) will come to an end,” Mawn said. “I have a pension restriction. The likely scenario is they’ll get a list of candidates, I will be on the list, but the other candidates will be offered the job first.” Mawn said he could request a state 211 waiver for two years to serve as chief if no one else was qualified from the test who wanted the job, but that would be unlikely to happen. He said as acting police chief he will strive for professionalism. “They had a need and I filled it,” he said. “I intend to do the best job possible.” Ticonderoga has about five full-time and five part-time officers at present. ■

The Magnificent Seven of the Olympics Seven North Country residents off to Korea

CODIE BASCUE

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | Seven athletes with local ties to the Olympic region we call home will be making their way to Pyeongchang, South Korea at the end of this week as they begin to chase their dreams of Olympic Glory at the 2018 Winter Games. From rookies to veterans spanning four Olympiads, here are the six local athletes to cheer for over the next two weeks.

LOWELL BAILEY

Bailey, a former standout for Lake Placid and the University of Vermont, will be competing in his fourth Olympics for Team USA. Last winter, Bailey won the 20km World Championship crown in biathlon, becoming the first American to ever win a world title. He also became the first athlete named to the 2018 Olympic team. His best Olympic finishes have been eighth in the individual race at the 2014 Sochi games and ninth in the team relay in the 2006 Torino games.

Bascue was also a member of the Whitehall varsity bobsled team, which trains in Lake Placid and is the only known school-sanctioned team in the country. Bascue recently piloted his team to victory in the Lake Placid World Cup event, helping him claim one of three driver seats for Team USA.

TOMMY BIESEMEYER

The Keene native and alum received his first Team USA nod this year, and will compete in downhill. Beisemeyer started skiing at Whiteface Mountain when he was three years old and started skiing competitively when he was 12 years old, winning the overall NorAM Cup title in 2010. Biesemeyer one of several athletes to come into the Olympic program through the New York Ski Education Foundation.

TIM BURKE

Burke, who enters his fourth Winter Olympic Games along with Bailey, was a standout athlete at Saranac Lake Central School. He has been one of the sport’s top athletes, notching several World Cup podium finishes. At the 2013 world championships, he won a silver medal in the 20km individual competition, becoming the second U.S. man ever to win a world championship medal.

Her best World Cup finish was a bronze medal at the 2017 championships. She began her sliding career as a brakewoman, before moving to the front of the sled where she has driven to not only an Olympic bronze medal, but also a world championship bronze medal and several World Cup podium finishes.

For centuries, man has had an abiding passion for building with stone. It provides strength, elegance and enduring protection. It is resilient, and timeless. The Chippewa (or Ojibwa) are among the largest groups of Native Americans throughout North America and Canada. Their name stands for “the good humans” or “the good people”, meaning those who are on the right path given to them by the Creator. These words aptly describe the passion of the people who harvest the earth’s bounty with dignity and respect, to produce products of alluring beauty and eternal strength. They are the people of Chippewa Stone. 3 Ryder Road, Whitehall, NY 12887 518.499.9090 • Fax: 518.499.9099 chippewastone1@aol.com

From the sidelines

You get 1,000 and you get 1,000!

Everyone is getting $1,000! Points, that is. The explosion of 1,000point scorers has truly been remarkable this year, as 10 By Keith Lobdell players will have hit the mark • SPORTS EDITOR • as of this week, with the potential for at least two more, if not three, adding to that list. Evan Graney got the 1,000-point ball rolling, followed by Hannah Schwoebel, Dylan Trombley, Joel Martineau, Andrew Cutaiar, Joey Stahl, Gretchen Zalis, Paige Chilton, Maddie Pratt and Rylee Hollister. Still to come, most likely, are Lillian Dechene and McKenzie Sprague. If Moriah goes deep in to the playoffs, there could also be Maddie Olcott, making 13 for the season. So, we did some digging and the first answer is yes, this will be the biggest class of 1,000-point scorers in Section VII history. The seven players who recorded the mark in the last week alone equals the previous high mark, set just last year and before in 2001. The number of 1,000-point members has been steadily increasing throughout the years. Heading into the 1980s, only 18 players — all male — had made the list going back as far as 1948, an average of 4.5 per decade. In the 1980s, 13 players made the cut, with the biggest years being 1981 and 1987, when two players each made the list. That number more than doubled in the 1990s, as 36 players made the 1,000-point mark, including Section VII all-time leading scorers Julie Moore (Westport ‘92, 2,388) and Dan Munson (Beekmantown ‘99, 1,696). In the first decade of the 21st century, 44 more names were added to the list, which includes Section VII’s second leading female scorer Courtney Coryea (NCCS ‘06, 1,909). And so far in the 2010s, 35 names have made the list with 36 and 37 expected, well on pace to beating the previous decade. It also brings us the second leading scorer in Section VII boy’s history in Adam Jaquish (Moriah ‘16, 1,690). The next question I asked myself is who has the most 1,000-point scorers of schools in the section. The answer was partially surprising. While Northeastern Clinton was not the surprise with 12 (eight girls, four boys), it was who they were tied with — Westport, who also has 12 players (seven girls, five boys), with both adding one this year (Schwoebel, Hollister). Not every school has a 1,000-point scorer, but most do, and most have multiple members on the list. Over the past two years, Ticonderoga and Seton Catholic have seen a change to the top of that list with Kevin Murray last year and Graney this year — and more may come there, too. All in all, it has made for a very exciting season of basketball as we roll into the regular season stretch run and sectional playoffs. ■

MORIAH | Andrew Cutaiar and Joey Stahl have been playing basketball against each other for a long time. On Jan. 30, both met as Cutaiar’s Plattsburgh High team hosted Stahl and the top-ranked Moriah Vikings with the Hornets shooter 10 points away from 1,000 for his career. Meanwhile, Stahl was 39 points away, which seemed like a stretch to get in one game, even for Vikings head coach Brian Cross. “I didn’t bring a game ball with me, so I had no thought that he could do it tonight,” Cross said. Yet, there they both were at the end of the game, sharing the game ball and smiling for the cameras as Cutaiar scored 13 points (1,003 career) and Stahl an impressive 40 points (1,001 career) in a 96-64 Viking victory. “If there is anyone in the Section I would want to share this night with, it would be Joey Stahl,” said Cutaiar about the friendship between the pair. “It was just a special day and to see him make it here too made it more special.” “It was great because he would come down the court and I would tell him ‘not this possession’” said Stahl after the game. “Then he got me, and he started saying the same thing to me.” Both Cross and PHS coach Jim Manchester said they cannot recall ever having two players hit the milestone on the same night. “I am happy for both of them,” Manchester said. “I am happy for Andrew and his family, especially his father, who have been working so hard for this moment for a number of years. “As for Joey, he is just one of those players — he is going to be missed as a player in this Section next season, but for an opposing coach like me, I’ll be able to get more sleep knowing

he’s no longer here,” Manchester joked. While Cutaiar became the fifth player this season to reach the 1,000 point barrier (Evan Graney, Hannah Schwoebel, Dylan Trombley, Joel Martineau), Stahl became the sixth and second member of the Vikings to reach the mark, preceded by Trombley. “My teammates deserve all of the credit,” Stahl said. “They are the ones who find me in open positions and we have grown so much together and accomplished some great things.” “You put Joey and Dylan together, and they have been the backbone of this team,” Cross said. “The have 88 wins together and could get to 100 wins as a duo if we can keep performing well. They have been great leaders and great players to have on the court.” ■

TICONDEROGA| For the AuSable Valley Patriots, it was business as usual the past three years at the Section VII bowling championships at North Bowl Lanes Feb. 3. For the Beekmantown Lady Eagles, however, it was anything but. The Eagles needed an impressive afternoon session in order to overcome a more than 200-pin deficit to the Peru Lady Indians in order the reclaim the Section VII girls title, a feat they were able to do with strong games in the fourth and fifth turns. “We knew we were going to be a little sluggish early and we were with a slower team, and it just kinda got us out of our usual routine,” said Beekmantown senior Cheyenne Reeves. » Bowling Cont. on pg. 15

» Bowling Cont. from pg. 14 “We came off the morning a little tired and I just told them it was time to get (going). We just weren’t feeling it but I knew the second half of the day we would come in and kick some butt.” “It was nerve wracking because we knew we were behind but we knew we would be good if we all came out and did our best,” added Morgan Burnell, who claimed the individual title for the day For the Patriots, it was a wire-to-wire win which placed them atop the podium. “This has been great,” said Ryan Thomas, who earned the overall boy’s title as well with his team. “Most kids do not get the chance to do this and this has been a great team to be apart of. Thomas added be had motivation for the day. “My dad and I had a bet if I finished over 1,300 for the day he would get me some kind of award,” Thomas said. “I still don’t know what it is yet.”

“It feels really good, especially for us seniors, that we were able to end this off with the goal we wanted to accomplish,” said Tyler Light, one of three seniors on the team with Thomas and Tyler Atkins. “It felt good to have a lead throughout and not have the pressure on us that if one roll didn’t go well, it could hurt us.” It has been an amazing experience to be part of teams going to states,” said Atkins. “This has been a great team and we have had some fun times.” “It has been fun to three-peat with these kinds,” coach Jeff Miller said. “If one of this kids is struggling, the other kids are there to pick them up. It’s fun to watch.” Ticonderoga coach Donna Fleury agreed the team was fun to watch, even as an opponent. “They are not only great bowlers but a great bunch of kids and our team always loves to play them,” said Fleury. The two sophomores on the team also expressed how they would miss their teammates.

“Being around these seniors is always getting to be a part of their positive energy,” said sophomore Troy McDonald. “They are just positive energy. I will miss that and getting the chance just to bowl with them next season.” “It has been a special team,” said Logan Martineau. “It has been fun to compete and to win the title with them.”

STATE TEAM

Along with the bowlers who were part of the sectional championship teams, six others are named to the Section VII team which will represent the regional competition. They include: Girls: Kathryn Bowman (Peru), Katelynn Miller (AVCS), Sabrina Phair (NCCS), Leita Ciolek (Peru), Madison Cragle (Peru), Kayla Gay (Willsboro). Alternate: Sarah Williams (Peru) Boys: Axel Dedrick (Ti), Gavin Fleury (Ti), Jacob Deyo (BCS), Gabe Sisco (NCCS), Nick Dorrance (Saranac), Matt Fall (Saranac). Alternate: Sidney Burnell (Beekmantown). The NYSPHSAA bowling championships are set for March 10-11 at the OnCenter in Syracuse. ■

Wildcats sweep rivalry series against Panthers and rode that momentum in the second half. We were down 14 with 2:20 left to play in the second and were finally able to get some shots to fall and cut their lead to four at halftime with a three-pointer by Andrew at the buzzer.” Andrew Pelkey led the Wildcats with 14 points, while Collin Bresnahan scored 13 and Cian Bresnahan added 8. “They have been solid additions to our program,” Silvernail said about the Bresnahans. “They are two very coachable hardworking kids and have been very accepting of their role on the team. In this game we talked about moving the ball more to find the open guys, they had a lot of attention on Andrew and this led to some easy baskets for the Bresnahan brothers.” Micha Stout scored 6 points, while Jordan DeZalia had 5.

SCHROON| It was a sweep for the Schroon Lake boy’s and girl’s varsity basketball teams this week as they took on MVAC Division II rival Crown Point to close out the month of January.

BOY’S RALLY

In the Jan. 30 opener of the series, the Wildcats rallied in the second half on both sides of the ball, allowing only 10 points to the Panthers while scoring 27 to earn a 48-35 victory. “We switched defenses late in the second quarter and went to a zone which was really effective in disrupting their rhythm offensively,” Schroon Lake coach Lee Silvernail said. “In the first quarter, we were getting a lot of good looks but the shots weren’t falling our way. Shots started to fall and we made a nice run to cut into their lead going into halftime

15 points to lead all scorers, while Reese Celotti added 6. Silvernail said the team will focus on defensive intensity as they play their final two games of the regular season. “We are at our best when we can control the tempo with our defense and keeps teams under 45 points,” he said. “It is important because from the start of sectionals we are going to see nothing but quality teams. The league is deep with quality teams this year.”

LADY WILDCATS WIN

For the Lady Wildcats, it was a strong message from the start as they outscored Crown Point 24-14 in the opening half of their Jan. 31 game en route to a 54-34 win. Grace Higgins led the Wildcats with 16 points in the game while Emily Maison-

Evan Graney makes history again Ti sharpshooter best in school history By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

TICONDEROGA | For the second time this year, Evan Graney did not have an idea of what was about to happen until right before. “I had an idea when he was drawing up plays for me to score even though I wasn’t hitting very much, but I didn’t really think about it,” said Graney of the plays leading up to his bucket, which made him the leading scorer in Ticonderoga Central School history against Northeastern Clinton Central School (NCCS) on Jan. 30. “It’s pretty cool,” said Graney after the game, “It’s never been a definite goal of mine, but it’s definitely an honor. Outscoring my uncle (Brendan) feels really good. He’s helped me so much along the way, and it makes it even better.” Brendan finished his career as the second leading scorer in Sentinel history at 1,290, one point shy of Bill Brennan, who set the mark at 1,291 over 30 years ago. Evan finished the win against the Cougars with 16 points, giving him 1,294 for his career. Coach Joe Defayette said they treated this milestone the same way they treated his quest for 1,000 points — “in silence.” “We didn’t talk about it,” Defayette said. “We were trying to get it over with so we didn’t have to think about it down the road.”

Once Graney hit the milestone shot in the third quarter, the game was stopped and a presentation was led by NCCS coach Robb Garrand. “At that point, I had an idea,” Graney said. “I’d like to thank Northeastern Clinton for doing this for me tonight. It was really generous of them.” “I’d like to second that,” Defayette said. “I would like to thank Robb and everyone up here because it was really nice.” Graney also got to share the moment with another person who has been on his bench throughout his high school career in Ticonderoga assistant and father Michael Graney. “It was really neat,” Evan said. “He’s been right by my side ever since I started playing basketball, so it was really cool to have him with me.” The night was one in what has been numerous accolades to flow in for the senior three-sport athlete, who has played in a state title football game, regional final basketball and baseball game, and has been named to the all-state team in two sports. For Evan, however, he was more worried about the outcome of the game and where the team can go from here. “Yeah, it’s a special moment, but at the end of the day, it’s about winning games,” he said. “If we win, that would be better than this record or other accomplishments.” — Jill Lobdell contributed to this story

ville, Wisdom Reel and Malena Gereau each scored 11. Alora Beapr added 6. For the Lady Panthers, Hannah Palmer scored 18 to lead all scorers, while Shawna McIntosh added 8. “A good win against a strong Crown Point team,” coach Dave Williams said. “The Lady Wildcats are having consistent scoring with several players. We are playing good team defense and working together on both ends of the court.” Williams said their unselfish play makes the team a “joy” to watch. “Lots of assists and the passing is excellent,” Williams said. “Over the year, we have had five different players as leading scorers. Wisdom Reel and Grace Higgens are developing as strong post players with good rebounding ability. We have been getting stronger as the season progresses.” ■

Crafters fill classes Moriah chamber holds Make-and-Take classes By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

PORT HENRY | Moriah Chamber of Commerce officials are hoping craft artist Pamela Lemza Putnam’s classes will keep attracting more people to downtown Port Henry. The first Make-and-Take class at the Moriah chamber offices attracted dozens of craft enthusiasts. “This is exactly what we were looking for: something new to bring people to our business district,” said chamber assistant Cathy LaFountain. “Before or after the class the participants are shopping and eating downtown. It’s increased foot traffic a lot.” Lemza Putnam owns Maiden by the Lake crafts, and her next class on March 1 also has no vacancies. The 2 p.m. session on Saturday, March 10 class still has openings.

“I’ll be running a third home-sign class at the Moriah Chamber of Commerce in Port Henry,” Lemza Putnam said. “You’ll have the opportunity to create the three-foot home sign in either white or black paint. I will teach you how to ‘crackle,’ learn how to make your own boxwood wreath for the ‘O’ and also how to stencil. The sign is very adaptable as you can change the boxwood wreath out for a different look or season by simply adding a colorful berry pick wreath.” All supplies are provided to make a one of a kind home decor sign along with coffee/ soda and snacks. “We paint on board, with chalk paint, create a Home Sweet Home board, then clamp a Mason jar to the board,” she said. “You’ll customize the look with your own colors.” The cost of a class is $40. The maximum number of students for each class is 12, and she normally does two a day. Her Facebook page is at: facebook.com/Maidenbythelake/. Participants can sign up on line. More classes are planned, she said. “These are fun projects for a cold winter day,” she said. ■

4th annual Ticonderoga Area Mom Prom returns Charity night out for women planned By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga Mom Prom is headed to the beach this year. The 4th-annual Ticonderoga Area Mom Prom is Saturday, March 24 from 7–11 p.m. at the Ticonderoga EMA Club at 9 Maplewood Drive. The theme of the event is “Sea You At The Beach.” The prom is a benefit to help support the Best 4th in the North Celebration and the Ticonderoga Tiny Tim Program. No one has to be a mother to attend, but they must be at least 21 years old. “Join us for a ladies night out for charity,” said Mom Prom Chair Starr Smith. “Save the date, get your ticket, and pull out that old prom, bridesmaid or wedding dress, or try something new, you could even wear a pantsuit.

Tony DiFebbo TICONDEROGA | Tony DiFebbo, 91, died Jan. 22, 2018 at Albany Medical Center following a brief illness. A lifelong resident of Ticonderoga, he was born March 8, 1926 to Giovanni and Maria DiFebbo. He married Jean White of Westport in 1948. They were married 60 years until her death on 2008. He was also predeceased by a brother, Louis, in 2008. A World War II veteran, Tony joined the army after graduation from Ticonderoga High School in 1943. He served with the 99th Infantry Division, nicknamed the “Battle Babies” because of their youth and inexperience. He fought at the Battle of the Bulge, the single largest and bloodiest battle for American forces in World War II. More than 19,000 Americans died in the battle. His unit also captured the famed Ludendorff Bridge at Remagen, which allowed allied troops to advance into Germany. Achieving the rank of sergeant, Tony was proud of his service and remained friends with many of his fellow soldiers through the years. He made an Honor Flight in 2015 with other veterans to visit the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. Following the war he returned to Ticonderoga and worked in the lab at International Paper for a year before taking a job with the Ticonderoga Power Co., which was later purchased by Niagara Mohawk. He worked 38 years for Niagara Mohawk, retiring in 1986 as a district manager. Tony was a communicant of St. Mary’s Church in Ticonderoga. He was member of the Ticonderoga Knights of Columbus, the Ticonderoga Veterans of Foreign Wars and Ticonderoga Kiwanis. Tony was a kind, generous and thoughtful man, known for his gardening and meticulous lawn care. In the 1970s he and Jean were recognized by the Ticonderoga Chamber of Commerce for their beautification efforts. He is survived by a nephew, Tom DiFebbo of Knoxville, Tennessee; two nieces, Mary Ann Vager of Largo, Florida, and Linda Kineer of Knoxville, Tennessee; his sister-in-law, Jeanne DiFebbo of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida; and many friends. There will be a memorial and graveside service scheduled in the spring. Donations in Tony’s memory may be made to St. Mary’s Church, 12 Father Joques Place, Ticonderoga 12883. ■

TICONDEROGA | Sherry H. Clark, 97, passed away peacefully on Jan. 11, 2018 in Charlotte, North Carolina. He was a resident of Ticonderoga for 91 years, and more recently lived in Midland, Michigan and Charlotte, North Carolina. He was born in Ticonderoga on Nov. 10, 1920, the son of Glen and Ruby (Porter) Clark. Sherry was a proud U.S. Army veteran having served in the pacific theatre during Word War II. He was a longtime employee of International Paper’s Ticonderoga Mill. After his retirement at age 62, he continued to remain active over three decades doing things he enjoyed, including long walks, mowing lawns and working at the Ticonderoga Fire Department. In 2011 he moved to Midland, Michigan to be with his son and daughter-in-law, where he enjoyed the local baseball team and long drives in the Michigan countryside. He moved to North Carolina in 2017 with his son’s family. Apart from his parents, Sherry was predeceased by his wife Flossie, his son Bob and his brother Perry, all of Ticonderoga. Survivors include his son Jim Clark and daughter-inlaw Diane of Denver, North Carolina; his grandson Doug Clark and wife Mavis of Bellevue, Kentucky; granddaughter Colleen Dixon and husband Jacob of Shelby, North Carolina; and granddaughter Carrie Rourke and husband Ian of Albany. He is also survived by three great-grandchildren. A private burial service will be held in Ticonderoga in the spring. To offer online condolences, please visit wilcoxandreganfuneralhome.com. ■

Grant will study chocolate history Fort Ticonderoga will research how treat was produced By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | Fort Ticonderoga will be awash in chocolate this summer. Mars Wrigley Confectionery recently awarded Fort Ticonderoga a Forrest E. Mars Jr. Chocolate History Grant for a project entitled “A Sea of Chocolate: Cocoa Cargoes in the Anglo Atlantic.” The fort will use the grant to research and develop a new program highlighting chocolate consumption and distribution by the British Royal Navy on Lake Champlain, said Beth L. Hill, Fort Ticonderoga president and chief executive officer. “Fort Ticonderoga is extremely grateful to Mars Wrigley Confectionery, and especially the Heritage Chocolate Society established by Forrest E. Mars Jr. for this generous grant,” said Hill. “Forrest was passionate about chocolate and history. We are so thrilled to have this opportunity to engage our growing audience in the history of chocolate at Ticonderoga and connect its story to the broader Atlantic world in the 18th century. “We are committed to partnering with the Heritage Chocolate Society to further study

and communicate chocolate’s rich history and its role on past and present cultures.” She said the $10,000 grant supports research on naval history and the transportation of chocolate found in manuscript, archaeological, and object collections. The grant will also fund the development of educational program material to be utilized for student programs and for the general public; and the implementation of the new chocolate maritime initiative at Fort Ticonderoga. Forrest E. Mars Jr. was the billionaire scion of the reclusive family that produced the Milky Way candy bar and M&Ms, and who helped build Mars Inc. into the world’s largest confectionery company. He died in 2016 in Seattle at age 84. Mars was a benefactor of Fort Ticonderoga while he was alive. During the 1781 military campaign featured this year at Fort Ticonderoga, visitors will discover how chocolate was shipped and prepared for British sailors and soldiers at Ticonderoga, said Stuart Lilie, Fort Ticonderoga vice president of Public History and Operations. “Being a tropical crop shipped across the ocean, chocolate is an essential tool to express the strategic importance of Ticonderoga along the water corridor of Lake Champlain and the Hudson River in 1781,” said Lilie. “This educational initiative will integrate new research and American Heritage Chocolate produced by Mars Wrigley Confectionery into a lively program (about) the broader network

Fort Ticonderoga recently was awarded a Forrest E. Mars Jr. Chocolate History Research Grant at the 14th-annual banquet of the Heritage Chocolate Society held at The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

around the globe who accessed over 200 archives, libraries, museums and private collections to reveal chocolate’s origin and history in the Americas, and the result was American Heritage Chocolate. ■

APA approves Boreas Ponds classification

The agency on Thursday engaged in a marathon four-hour meeting summarizing the ecological makeup of the parcel and detailing existing infrastructure. The APA also approved classifications for 99 other parcels on Friday, including MacIntyre East and West and the Casey Brook Tract.

RAY BROOK | The Adirondack Park Agency formally approved the classification of the Boreas Ponds Tract on Friday, creating the largest Wilderness area in the northeastern United States.
