Trekonderoga draws crowd Ticonderoga “Star Trek” convention featured stars from the original series

Lee Meriwether at Trekonderoga

Meriwether, who guest starred on Star Trek, was joined by Nichelle Nichols, Lt. Uhura, and Walter Koenig, Ensign Chekov, at this year’s Trekonderoga Aug. 25-27

TICONDEROGA | Fans of “Star Trek” headed for Ticonderoga last weekend to attend Trekonderoga and meet some of the actors from the original 1960s show. By Lohr McKinstry Trekonderoga coordinator • STA FF W RITER • James Cawley said 600 people had registered for the 3rd-annual convention and another 400 for the Elvis Presley show he does as an Elvis tribute artist. It was Cawley who recreated the 1960s Enterprise sets in a converted supermarket in downtown Ticonderoga, using the original plans from the show. The operation is now licensed by CBS as the Star Trek Original Series Set Tour. “You can see what it’s like when they were making the show,” Cawley said. “People who are fans of the show feel reverent when they see this.” This year Trekonderoga had Nichelle Nichols and Walter Koenig appearing with guests stars from the series that included Lee Meriwether. Nichols was Lt. Uhura, while Koenig played Ensign Chekov. “It’s been very hectic,” Cawley said. “It’s bigger with Nichelle and Walter coming.” » Trekonderoga Cont. on pg. 16-17

Grand marshal is town leader Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava named parade marshal By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

PORT HENRY | Longtime Moriah Town Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava has been named grand marshal of the 128th Port Henry-Moriah Labor Day Parade.

Scozzafava was chosen because of his continuing commitment to improving the quality of life in the town of Moriah, Moriah Chamber of Commerce President Cathy Sprague said. “It’s for his 30 years of community service,” she said “We had many calls and many letters and the grand marshal is Tom. It’s about time.

» Bollback Cont. from pg. 1 SCHROON LAKE | Although born in Brooklyn, Harry Bollback has spent close to 80 years in Schroon Lake. Still, Bollback has a lot of thoughts about the world at large. Sitting in a screened-in porch at his residence on the shore of Schroon Lake on Aug. 24, Bollback said he addressed the graduating class of the Word of Life Bible Institute the previous Sunday. “I told them three things about the world,” Bollback said. “The first is the world is getting smaller.” Bollback went to Brazil as a Christian missionary around 1950. At the time, it took 14 days by boat to get from New York to Brazil. Once there, it took 48 days traveling by canoe to reach the area where the Xavante indian tribe were located. On a more recent trip to visit the Xavante, the flight from Sao Paulo took just 18 minutes. Bollback’s second point was that the world is getting bigger — population-wise. At the same time, the world is getting younger. “About 3.2 billion people are now 24 years old or younger,” he said. Bollback has seen a number of the 72 countries where Word of Life has a campus, although he once vowed never to leave the United States again. Bollback was born in 1925. He started taking piano lessons at a young age, even though it was a hardship for his father to cover the cost. “My parents were both interested in music and wanted us all to learn to play music. My father, who was earning $30 per week, paid

www.suncommunitynews.com

$10 a week for my music lessons at Carnegie Hall,” Bollback said. Bollback attended a Jack Wyrtzen radio ministry, where he answered a call for a young man to play piano for a prison ministry at Rikers Island. His first time playing was Dec. 7, 1941. He said he was unaware of the attack on Pearl Harbor at the time. Bollback was being paid 50 cents each time he performed and later joined the ministry staff at $10 per week. After he graduated high school in 1943, he joined the U.S. Marine Corps. Serving in the corps is still a matter of pride for the 92-year-old. In his autobiography, “One Incredible Journey,” Bollback said the war made him tough, which served him well in his missionary work in Brazil. Bollback was part of the U.S. invasion of the tiny South Pacific island of Peleliu, where of nearly 200 men in his company, he was one of only seven who was not killed or wounded. Forty percent of the 1st Marine Division were killed or wounded in that battle. Bollback would later be part of the invasion of Okinawa and served in China before being discharged and returning to join up with Wyrtzen. After returning home from the war was when he vowed never to leave the United States again. In his 76 years with Word of Life, he has traveled to numerous countries. About eight or nine years ago, Bollback started his involvement with VFW Post 5513 in Chestertown. According to post commander, Harry Brundage, his wife Lois first suggested to Bollback that he get involved with the VFW. “He said he never would because all those guys do is sit around and drink,” Brundage

Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

said. “We meet at the American Legion hall, and they don’t even have a bar.” Brundage got Bollback to attend a meeting, and the first thing in the door he was offered a beer from the refrigerator, which he declined. Bollback did remain, joined the VFW, and he helped raise $88,000 to build the all-wars veterans memorial in front of Chester Town Hall. ■

Typo leads to do-or-die for Grinnell Sept. 12 GOP primary could decide Ti super election By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | An incorrect date at the top of his independent petition could mean former town supervisor William “Bill” Grinnell’s run for his former seat could be over by mid-September. The error was found when he submitted the petition to the Essex County Board of Elections during the Aug. 15-22 filing deadline. The board ruled the petition invalid, leaving Grinnell vulnerable in the upcoming GOP primary between himself

and incumbent supervisor Joseph Giordano, “There was a typo in the date for the general election so apparently, my petitions were not acceptable,” Grinnell said. The former supervisor, whom Giordano defeated in 2015, also questioned how he has seen what he believes were recent errors treated. “We had a candidate lose an election because their name was spelled wrong on a write-in vote, but last election we had a person elected when I know votes were accepted when the name was spelled wrong,” Grinnell said. “It makes me wonder if spelling errors on ballots are more or less offensive then a typo on a header.” Grinnell was still weighing whether or not to challenge the decision by the Board of Elections, but is ready to face Giordano in the Sept. 12 Republican primary, knowing if he does not win the primary, he is out of the general election. “We will work very hard heading up to the Republican primary and hope that will be enough to carry us forward,” he said. Giordano will be a part of the November general election no matter the outcome of the primary, as his independent petition was accepted by the Board of Elections. Also in Ticonderoga, the four-way Republican race for town council could be narrowed to three, as Fred Provoncha was the only candidate not to have an independent petition. Joyce Cooper, Heath Towne and David Woods each

filed successful independent petitions.

HARRINGTON IN, UNOPPOSED

In Crown Point, Charlie Harrington is back on the ballot for town supervisor after having his party petition denied by the board. The incumbent is running unopposed so far with no other petitions having been filed. Supervisors in southern Essex County running unopposed in the upcoming election include Stephen McNally of Minerva, Tom Scozzafava of Moriah, Robin DeLoria of Newcomb and Michael Marnell of Schroon.

NEW FACES

Along with independent-only supervisor candidates, the filing process entered several other new candidates into different races. In the race for Minerva highway superintendent, Scott Fish joined the race as an independent petitioner to make it a threeway vote between himself, Jonathan Fish and Timothy Sheehan. All races could be impacted by the possibility of a write-in candidate. While write-in candidates have been often viewed as “long-shots,” that has not been the case recently as Giordano defeated Grinnell in the 2015 race for Ticonderoga town supervisor, while three candidates — Mark Davenport, Linda Smith and James Curran swept the seats up for election in Port Henry on a pro-dissolution platform in March 2016. ■

» NCCC Cont. from pg. 1 ELIZABETHTOWN | The Essex County Board of Supervisors tentatively approved North Country Community College’s proposed 2017-18 spending plan on Monday. Approval of the $14,518,251 budget came after lawmakers earlier this month sought more clarity on enrollment numbers and the development of a long-term strategic plan for the college. Lawmakers also accused NCCC of obscuring the results of a study exploring the feasibility of converting the former Lowe’s in Ticonderoga into a trade-focused satellite campus. But the two sides, which have sparred frequently over the years, reached somewhat of a détente after NCCC Board of Trustees Chairman Stephen Reed promised a more collaborative relationship with lawmakers moving forward. “The issues are complex,” Reed said. “We’re working on them, and we want to partner with you when we’re working on them.” “Nothing that is practical and would benefit the college is off the table,” Reed said. However, he said, “strategic plans tend to have a short shelf life.” Reed agreed with Roby Politi (I-North Elba) that meetings between lawmakers, board members and perhaps even school district superintendents several times a year would be conducive. “At your discretion, we’ll sit down and make a schedule for these meetings,” Reed said. The total funding contribution for both Essex and Franklin counties would remain

the same as the present year at $2,480,000 each, and students will see a 2 percent increase in tuition for an annual cost of $4,692.

ENROLLMENT CONCERNS

The budget assumes an enrollment of 975 full-time enrollments (FTE) from traditional students and another 180 FTE from the Second Change Pell Program for prisoners at local incarceration facilities — an 8 percent increase over current levels. College officials last year had said enrollment was projected to decline by 14.2 percent for the 2016-17 academic year, but said investments in online courses, new scholarships for nontraditional students and federal changes concerning bridge programs were promising new developments. Five-hundred and thirty Essex County students were enrolled at the college’s three campuses in the 2016-17 academic year. But just 28 were Class of 2016 graduates from high schools in Essex County. A NCCC enrollment report revealed a handful of Essex County high schools sent zero 2016 grads to the school, including Keene Central, Minerva Central, Moriah Central, Newcomb Central, Schroon Lake Central and Willsboro Central. Reed said it’s important to note the number of non-traditional, returning students, and that the reasons for attending school elsewhere are complicated. Furthermore, he said, cost is always a factor when determining course offerings

The Times of Ti Sun | September 2, 2017 • 5

there has to be more communication there,” he said. “That’s what we’re losing our students to other colleges.” Joe Pete Wilson (D-Keene) said he continued to have “structural concerns” moving forward. Without the Pell grants, he said, NCCC would be operating at an annual deficit of about $750,000. “That’s just a fundamental bottom line for me,” Wilson said. The Essex County Board of Supervisors Ways & Means Committee voted 16-0 in favor of the budget. Wes Miga (D-Newcomb) was excused. ■

— especially when considering programming across three campuses. “It’s a little bit like the chicken and the egg,” Reed said. “Obviously a college as small as ours is going to have fewer offerings made possible.” Lawmakers have long said NCCC, which has campuses in Saranac Lake, Ticonderoga and Malone, needs to diversity their course offerings past liberal arts. “We’re spending a lot of money, and we’re not really enticing the students of Essex County to go up there, and that’s a concern to me,” said Stephen McNally (D-Minerva). McNally said students in his community opt to go to SUNY Adirondack in Warren County. Tom Scozzafava (R-Moriah), an electrician by training, called for a broader emphasis on the trades. “There’s a large chasm that exists between the college and our local school districts, and

The Essex County Board of Supervisors approved North Country Community College’s proposed 2017-18 spending plan on Monday, Aug. 28, 2017. Despite voting in favor of the plan, Keene Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson (center left), said he continues to harbor concerns over the school’s long-term economic sustainability. Photo by Pete DeMola

Blessing or From the Editor Curse? Cooperative Extension must take

Who wouldn’t love to pocket a cool $758 million? Last week’s prize was the biggest undiBy Dan Alexander vided lottery jackpot • PUBLISHER • in U.S. history. As wonderful and worry-resolving as it may sound being thrust into that much money all at once, it can be as much a curse as it is a blessing. Mavis Wanczyk will become the target for many charities, newfound and long lost friends, professional money managers, legal representatives, relatives and sadly, a number of unscrupulous scammers who would love an opportunity to share in her prize winnings. It is not a new story. We’ve heard about it before from the likes of stage and screen stars, professional sports athletes and prior lottery winners. Money, especially that much money, no one average middle-class person is prepared to deal with on their own. Mavis will be forced to trust others assisting her in the management and disbursement of such a large fund. Common sense mandates that she can’t just take it home and put it in the mattress for safekeeping. Herein lies the dilemma we see all around us: Money causes as many problems as it solves. The trappings of money are seen every day all around us. From the small store clerk whose fingers are caught in the till to halls of government where the money flows in huge amounts. How many of us laid down our hard-earned funds and bought lottery tickets in the hopes of being where Mavis is today? What would a significant number of our population do just to have a tiny fraction of what she won? It’s tantalizing just to think about how you would use those dollars and how happy you could make those around you feel, but sadly it’s never a one and done type of thing. The needs and requests keep coming and the need to preserve and grow what you’ve got only eats into your carefree days. It’s easy to see why some become addicted to gambling or far worse professions when money clouds the picture and warps one’s commoner thinking. It takes a very unique person to remain normal under such conditions and so when I make the following recommendation, hold me to it, should I ever find myself in a windfall. No one person should never be awarded that much money. A couple of million is hard enough, but that much money is just too much. ■

ownership of ailing structure By Pete DeMola EDITOR

An Essex County Board of Supervisors subcommittee tasked with detailing the fate of the county-owned CCE Building in Westport has released their long-awaited formal report. The task force on Monday presented several options to county lawmakers. Following years of neglect, a full scale restoration will cost $2.3 million, with conversion to a three-season structure clocking in at about $786,000. Engineers have said the building is borderline uninhabitable and poses a serious safety hazard to the county employees currently housed there. The options presented by the task force are good ones, and they clearly have given what’s shaping up to be a contentious issue their due diligence. But we think the county should simply facilitate a transfer to Cornell Cooperative Extension as soon as possible and be done with it. The President of the Essex County CCE Board of Directors has indicated that it may be a desirable option. So if CCE wants it, give it to them. The county should have the building appraised and sign over the paperwork as soon as possible. We’ve been reporting from the local gov-

ernment trenches long enough to see how large-scale renovation projects of government-owned property go: Rehabilitation projects carry with them a prolonged search for grant funds, reams of paperwork and endless procedural motions guiding every step of the process. Once shovels hit the ground, costs skyrocket due to the state’s prevailing wage rates. (See: The soaring cost of the county nutrition building at the same location.) And owing to the board of supervisors system, a majority of lawmakers simply aren’t vested in the project because it’s not in their community, and probably aren’t the most informed when it comes to their decision-making. The community is understandably skittish over the building’s future, and people have a right to be rattled. The project has symbolic overtones, and for many, this isn’t just about rehabilitating a historic building, but rather ensuring the survival of a unique rural culture. The CCE Building serves as a community hub. Their programming has made endless contributions to the region over the years, and serves as a critical spoke in the development of our children and sustaining the local economy. However, the county doesn’t have the resources to renovate and maintain the building, nor should they be the sole vanguards for preserving this culture. The burden is just too much, nor should they be asked

Letters to the Editor

Government nickel-and-diming reminiscent of Russia

To the Editor: I’ve heard from several sources that an American citizen has to be very careful if visiting — say, the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia — that they don’t get their pockets picked. Both sources reported that half the people in their tour group were “picked” even after having been forewarned. St. Petersburg has nothing on the government of New York state. Last week, I purchased a very nice used vehicle when someone offered me the proverbial “offer I could not refuse.” I expected to pay the 8 percent sales tax on the vehicle, even though I think it is a form of “government overreach” we hear so much about these days. The sales tax had already been paid when that vehicle was purchased new and again when the seller I met bought it only a few months ago. Because I teach basic math up at Moriah Shock as a literacy volunteer, I was able to multiply the purchase price by .08 and got $1,468.80. However, when I was told by the nice lady at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) in Elizabethtown that I should write a check to the Essex County Clerk for $1,600.36, I asked for a breakdown of the additional fees. Two were obvious: $60 title fee and $25 for new plates. That left something like $46.95 unaccounted for, so I asked what that ad-

to shoulder it alone. Cooperative Extension should do the right thing and immediately take ownership of the building to ensure programing and this culture remains intact. With their state and federal partnership paired with private funding streams, Cooperative Extension is better positioned to absorb these renovation costs than the county, and secure the funding necessary to restore the building back to its former glory. Essex County, however, shouldn’t be completely left off the hook. County lawmakers should tweak their annual funding formula to ensure that same level of programming is maintained — if not slightly boosted. It’s important to note the building hasn’t always been county owned. The structure was originally built by a private citizen in 1924 and given to the county about 15 years later. So deeding it back to private ownership would be a return to its roots. The county has more pressing issues it should be dealing with, like tackling the opiate crisis, exploring the creation of a county-wide emergency medical services system and implementing massive statemandated reforms in providing legal services to the poor. Pouring resources into an ailing building should not be among them. ■

ditional tax was all about. The answer was: $28.25 is the “annual fee” and $18.70 is a “retention fee.” Neither person at the BMV could tell me what those fees are for. It wouldn’t do me any good if I got a good explanation from (Supervisor) Joseph Provoncha: I’ve paid the fees so I could license my “new” vehicle. But I thought I’d share with your readers the fact that there is a strong parallel between the pickpockets in St. Petersburg and those working for the state of New York in Elizabethtown. Sincerely, Jim Davis, Westport ■

Dealing with Civil War history

To the Editor: There seems to a deliberate lapse in logic on the part of Publisher Dan Alexander in his opinion piece, “Misguided Efforts.” He wrote that slavery was at the core, but the war was fought over states’ rights. But that was the state’s right for its residents to buy, sell and own other human beings, which was a vision statement that was way past its prime, even in the 1860s. Deal with the true history of the Civil War, past the posturing, past the statues and past those bogus Confederate flags and glory in how far we have come since those dark days.

Annual garden club fundraiser looms The Carillon Garden Club will host a luncheon and card party By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

HAGUE | The Carillon Garden Club is holding its benefit Luncheon and Card and Game Party at the Hague Community Center on Route 8. The annual event is Thursday, Sept. 21 at 11:30 a.m. The annual happening is a major fundraiser for the club, » Letters Cont. from pg. 6

States’ rights is a euphemism for defending slavery

To the Editor: Yes, Dan Alexander, “what took place 150 years ago really affects us today.” It doesn’t “ just present an opportunity for some to further divide our nation.” Mr. Alexander is referring to the “willful defacing of monuments meant to memorialize historic events,” meaning Confederate monuments. Unmentioned was the controversy surrounding monument relocation, commonly defended as respectable public memorials. “While slavery was at its core,” he asserts “the war was fought over states’ rights” — indeed, the “right” to own slaves! States’ rights is a euphemism for defending the institution of slavery. The Confederate Vice President said the war’s “cornerstone rests upon the great truth, that the negro

is not equal to the white man; that slavery — subordination to the superior race — is his natural and normal condition. This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth.” Events such as those that led to Charlottesville only “go against the grain of conventional thinking” if we restrict thinkers to the dominant culture. But the United States of America is a republic — where majority passions are deliberately tempered by minority rights. Confederate monuments, as the mayor of New Orleans said, were originally “erected purposefully to send a strong message to all who walked in their shadows about who was still in charge.” Given the golden opportunity to denounce racism, our president equivocated. Any competent leader knows that divisiveness exploited by unscrupulous politicians and sensational media should be countered by uniting us through truth, then reconciliation. Frank Pagano, Jay ■

» CCE Cont. from pg. 1 ELIZABETHTOWN | The county’s fairgrounds subcommittee on Monday rolled out their long-awaited report on the ailing Cornell Cooperative Extension Building in Westport. The price tag for a full restoration effort is $2.3 million. Just about every component of the wooden structure is compromised, said Todd Hodgson, a county-employed environmental manager, from the piers holding up the building to the need for asbestos remediation in the attic. The building was originally designed for three-season use, and the installation of a year-round heating has accelerated the structure’s deterioration. County officials said their paramount concern was public safety — particularly considering the retro-engineered electrical system poses an immediate fire risk. “These areas are not fireproof,” Hodgson said. The building would also need to be made code- and Americans with Disabilities Act- compliant. Essex County Deputy Superintendent of Public Works Jim Dougan estimated full restoration would take 18 months. But, he said, funding remains a concern. “We came up with a $2.3 million project

with no immediately identifiable source of funding,” he said. A second option is a conversion to a threeseason building, a $785,644 undertaking. The remaining options include simply doing nothing, demolition or a handover to Cornell Cooperative Extension, the contract agency occupying the Sisco Street structure along with Soil & Water. However, county officials said demolition — which would cost $260,565 — has never been seriously discussed, and saving the building has always been the chief priority. “The goal has really always been to save the structure,” said Essex County Vice Chairman Shaun Gillilland, who heads the task force. On demolition, Dougan seconded: “I don’t think anyone is considering that.” Lawmakers did note handing the building over to CCE was also an option. But the immediate safety concerns would have to first be alleviated. “This building is in terrible shape,” Gillilland said. While no decisions have been made, county officials are already eying grant opportunities: The county put in a $500,000 grant application to the New York’s State Historic Preservation Office, with all but $100,000 going to a possible building project (the re-

mainder would be used to restore the cupola of the Old Essex County Courthouse). The most recent round of Consolidated Funding Applications was due July 28, and Dougan said the county also put in a grant to the state Department of State.

NO DEADLINE SET

Dougan asked lawmakers to weigh their options. A firm deadline has not been set for lawmakers to make a decision. Regardless of their decision, the 10 contract agency employees housed in the facility will have to be relocated — at least temporarily. County officials are eying the purchase of the Jehovah’s Witness building in Lewis as a possible site for office space. “The upgrades would be minimal,” Gillilland said, citing a $10,000 investment to convert the site to house workers. The septic system is sufficient for the intended use, he said. But the decision to relocate staffers has generated concern from the community, primarily in Westport. At least 75 residents signed a petition protesting the tentative move, citing the loss of jobs in a community that is already economically struggling. Michael “Ike” Tyler (R-Westport), who voted against a previous resolution autho-

rizing the county to enter negotiations to purchase the Lewis property, asked the task force to consider securing temporary office space in Westport. “I will tell you I’ve been inundated with phone calls,” he said. Charles Harrington (R-Crown Point) serves as the board’s liaison with CCE. “(The CCE Board) realized that this situation has to be resolved, and the remedy no matter what you do is a hard pill,” Harrington said. “They do realize today the board of supervisors are their advocates, and the board of supervisors wants to do the right thing.” Tom Scozzafava (R-Moriah) said preservation and relocation are two different issues, and should have never gotten tangled up with one another. “It’s unfortunate that the politics of this building and the Lewis building got mixed up together,” he said. “If there’s reasonable space available in Westport, then that’s the option that we should go with.” Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston acknowledged the county was in a tough spot. “I’m not in favor of doing away with the building,” he said, stressing his commitment to renovation. “But I don’t know where we’re going to come up with $2.3 million.” ■

Moriah Chamber of Commerce offering an escape on the Escape The Moriah Chamber of Commerce has a boat cruise on Lake Champlain By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

MORIAH | The Moriah Chamber of Commerce Lake Champlain Boat Cruise on Lake Champlain is being billed as “Escape on the Escape.” The cruise starts at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 10 aboard Basin Harbor Resort’s 47-foot-long boat, “Escape.”

Boarding is at the Port Henry Marina, next to the state Boat Launch Site. The two-hour cruise with Capt. Marty Ferris is $20 for chamber members and $25 for non-members. Tickets are available for purchase at the Glens Falls National Bank branch in Port Henry and chamber offices. “It’s our big summer fundraiser,”

Moriah Chamber President Cathy Sprague said. “The money we raise from this event pays for chamber events like the Port Henry Labor Day Parade. “The passengers will have some great views of the new Champlain Bridge from the lake,” Sprague continued. “Capt. Ferris will give us a good cruise. He’ll also do narration on the

history of the lake and its geology.” The boat will head north by historic Camp Dudley in Westport, a summer camp for boys established after the Civil War, and on to Barn Rock and The Palisades. Continuing along the New York shore, the Escape will stop in Snake Den Harbor to see an eagle’s nest, then at the site of the former iron

mines in Ore Bed Harbor. Following that, the ship will continue to Split Rock Point, then turn around to cruise by Diamond Island, on down the lake near Basin Harbor, and south along the Vermont shore past Button Bay and Hospital Creek. A cash bar will be available on the boat. ■

Free dinner is a crowd pleaser The Ticonderoga Methodist Church is offering mac and cheese

By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | Students carry backpacks that are their faithful companions throughout the school year, holding books and lunches and necessary gear. With that in mind, a Blessing of the Backpacks will be performed by Pastor Scott Tyler at First United Methodist Church in Ticonderoga during morning worship at the 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. services on Sunday, Sept. 3. For those who may not be able to attend a service on Labor Day Sunday, there will be another opportunity on Sunday, Sept. 10, which is also Sunday School Rally Day. “Everyone is encouraged to bring their faithful and strong back pack to church to receive special blessings for a new season,” the church’s Betty Rettig said. “ Even young two and three year old children, college students and adults use backpacks to help get

their important things safely to new adventures each day and home again.” A brief meditation and gift will be given, she said. On Sunday, Sept. 10, children in preschool through middle school will attend the beginning of the 10:30 a.m. service in the sanctuary to hear the Children’s Message given by Tyler and then go to their respective age-group classes, where they will have a Bible-based lesson. Crafts, songs and life lessons will all be part of the Sunday School experience. After Sunday School, children will join their families for the fellowship coffee time following the worship service. ■

Conservation Conversations

Dances with turtles Every once in a while I will get a phone call, a letter or an email from someone who has a concern or would like some direction on a problem. Recently I received a call from a By Rich Redman local fellow who has traveled back and • COLUMNIST • forth to work over the same stretch of highway for the last thirteen years. Tom Briggs of Moriah works as a blasting driller at NYCO in Lewis and travels the Lincoln Pond Road daily — same path, same time. When you drive the road daily, you see the subtle changes. Maybe it’s the weather, maybe wildlife, or the day to day change of a construction site; a kind of time lapse photography. You mentally take that picture every day and program the changes. Tom has an eye for wildlife. He noticed and noted the times when the turtles build their nests near Lincoln Pond. He pointed out that the second and third weeks of June are prime time for turtles to come ashore and scrap out a hollow to deposit their eggs into. Sometimes they cross the road, and sometimes they don’t make it. He has seen drivers deliberately crush the turtles. While walking the shoreline, he pointed out nesting sites. As a guy who drives the Lincoln Pond Road daily, he sees the turtles make their nests, and notes their locations. Tom has also noticed that the new guard rails along the causeway were installed at the same time the turtles were involved in their nesting. Without a doubt, some nests were trampled by the construction, plus others are being destroyed by the foot traffic off the causeway. Tom wanted to point out that most people don’t know the nests are there. If they knew, they may have a respect for the area and stay off the banks. Tom wasn’t sure what to do, and asked if I could help. I said I’ll write an article and call it “Dances with Turtles,” not as humorous, but out of respect.

So, I am letting you know about the nests and maybe — that’s a big maybe — the Lincoln Pond people and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation could put up a sign warning folks, or even designate off-limit areas during the nesting period so the turtles have a chance. It may be too late for this season, but life continues next spring and the following springs. The areas could have some sand spread where turtles could lay eggs and maybe have an easier time digging out a nest. It’s too late for this year, but not for the future. This could be done on many road side ponds, not just on Lincoln Pond, as an educational tool. To some people this will be foolish, but many will appreciate what Tom Briggs of Moriah is trying to do. It’s a simple thing. We are all part of the ecology. There is no reason to smash and destroy wildlife nests. Let’s give them a chance to live too. According to a Native American website, turtles play positive roles in the folklore of many Native American tribes. In the creation myths of some East Coast tribes (such as the Iroquois and Lenape) the Great Spirit created their homeland by placing earth on the back of a giant turtle. This is why some contemporary Native Americans refer to North America by the name “Turtle Island.” Turtles are a symbol of the earth in many different Native cultures. In other tribes, turtles are often associated with healing, wisdom, and spirituality. Tom Briggs, I and many others respect the circle of life. For many of us, it’s simple: we give a damn and appreciate seeing living things live. We all dance with something! ■

Medical taxi passenger convicted on drug count A Ticonderoga man admitted he had cocaine in his underwear By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | A Ticonderoga man who hid cocaine while riding in a medical taxi has been convicted of drug possession during a jury trial. Tasheen Carrow, 40, of Corona and Ti-

conderoga, pleaded guilty during a recess of his jury trial in Essex County Court to one count of 3rd degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a felony. Carrow admitted that on Jan. 30 he possessed eight grams of crack cocaine secreted inside his boxer shorts, which he intended to sell at a future time, the Essex County

District Attorney’s Office said. The drugs were found on the defendant as a result of a pat-frisk search by a New York State Police trooper whose dog had alerted him to the inside of a Medicaid transportation taxicab that Carrow and two others were traveling in. The taxi cab had been stopped by Essex County Sheriff’s Department deputies for

speeding and failure to keep right. The Ticonderoga Police Department was also involved in the arrest. Carrow remains in jail on $50,000 cash or $100,000 bond and is scheduled to be sentenced as a second felony drug offender on Oct. 11. He faces a maximum sentence of up to 12 years. ■

Cafe celebrates first anniversary Sept. 5 Ticonderoga’s Burleigh’s Luncheonette has a 1950s theme By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | Burleigh’s Luncheonette has long been an anchor in Ticonderoga’s downtown business district, serving good food with lots of local camaraderie. Co-owners Mark and Donald Barber say they made the right decision a year ago when they purchased the restaurant with their mother, Debbie. Their one year anniversary in business is coming up on Tuesday, Sept. 5. On that day, dine-in and pick-up order customers only

can enter their names for a chance to win two $50 gift certificates. Mark manages the eatery, while his father, Donald, does the cooking. “We want to thank everybody for their patronage,” Mark said. “Business has been very good. Our f irst year in town has been incredible.” He said they kept the waitstaff from the previous owners, the Treadway family, and the patrons remained loyal. “Our customers have been like family,” Mark said. “We’ve made many friends.” They also did façade improvements, like

a new awning, but kept the place’s 1950s theme, complete with original booths and Lone Ranger lunchboxes on display. The restaurant’s menu stayed about the same, Mark said. “We didn’t really change the menu,” he said. “It was a good menu already. People liked it.” “We knew what we had was good,” Donald added. “We also do lunch specials every day, and dinner specials Friday and Saturday. ”

Burleigh’s Luncheonette at 121 Montcalm St. is open Friday and Saturday from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m., and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The café is closed Sunday.

Meriwether, who also played Catwoman in the 1966 “Batman” movie, said she was having a great time.

“I like meeting the fans,” she said. “Everyone has been very gracious.” Cawley said Meriwether was a pleasure to work with. “She is beautiful and amazing,” he said. Abbe Pabon, 52, of Peekskill traveled hours to get to the event. “I had a nice time,” she said. “I am the youngest of the first-run ‘Star Trek’ fans. I recall vividly watching ‘The Way to Eden’ (episode) in its first run and that was it – I knew who Kirk and Spock were before I was 3 1/2 years old. So next year’s Trekonderoga will kick off my 50th anniversary as a ‘Star Trek’ fan.” She got a set tour with Cawley himself conducting it, and went to the Trekonderoga dinner event, where she was delighted to be seated next to Meriwether. “BarBara Luna and Lee Meriwether were sitting at my table for the Friday dinner, one on each side,” Pabon said. Luna, a frequent 1960s and ‘70s TV guest star, was the captain’s girlfriend on the “Mirror, Mirror” episode of “Star Trek.” Cawley had praise for the new “Star Trek: Discovery” series CBS is launching this month. “I’m excited,” he said. “Give them a chance.” Some fans have said the new show seems to be a departure from “Star Trek” canon, but Cawley said it hasn’t even premiered yet, and many of the props and sets look like just updated versions of the originals. “Star Trek: Discovery” tales place 10 years before the time in which the original series was set. The Star Trek Original Series Set Tour has really taken off, Cawley said. “We are seeing lots of foot traffic,” he said. “It’s been great for the downtown.” ■ LEFT: James Cawley welcomes actor and author John Carrigan to the sets.

Creating Healthy Schools and Communities grant to bolster public health

PLATTSBURGH | Six municipalities were recently awarded funding through the Clinton County Health Department’s Creating Healthy Schools and Communities grant. Th is year’s recipients include the towns of Altona, Dannemora, Mooers, Moriah and Ticonderoga and the Village of Chateaugay. Complete Streets is a program designed to make walking, biking, driving and playing safer and easier for residents. This year’s round of funding will support the purchase of surfacing materials, traffic calming materials, updated recreational equipment and benches. “In such rural communities, a Complete Street looks different than it would in urban areas,” said Karissa Kilmer, CCHD public health educator. “There are often large distances between services such as grocery stores and recreation facilities making it difficult for people without access to transportation.” The goal is to raise awareness and help our communities make it safe for residents to get out and be physically active, she said.

Paine gets Marquis de Montcalm Award Fort Ticonderoga has bestowed its most prestigious honor. By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | Fort Ticonderoga has confered its Marquis de Montcalm Award on Peter S. Paine Jr. The award is Fort Ticonderoga’s highest honor and was given in recognition of Paine’s years of leadership and service to the museum. Paine was given a reproduction of a Chevalier of the Order of Saint Louis, a prestigious French medal given to the Marquis de Montcalm in 1757. “Peter is a force of nature,” Fort Ticonderoga Association Board Chairman Sanford W. Morhouse. “He exudes competence and inspires confidence in others. “Peter took the helm during Fort Ticonderoga’s darkest hour in 2008. Under his leadership, he put the organization’s finances in order, preserved the museum’s priceless collections, completed the construction of the Mars Education Center, brought order to governance, attracted new and talented board members, and hired Beth Hill, the (current) president and chief executive officer.” It was in those years that the fort considered selling some of its collections, laid off employees and saw attendance plummet. Paine, a lifelong resident of Willsboro and New York City, was elected as a member of the Fort Ticonderoga Association in 1990. He served several terms on the Board of Trustees, was elected chairman in 2008 and served in that role until Jan. 1, 2013. Since that time, Paine has served as a trustee emeritus. The award was presented at Fort Ticonderoga’s annual Summer Gala held at Fort Ticonderoga. ■ The Marquis de Montcalm Award was recently presented to Peter PAine of Willsboro. From left are: Beth L.

Local races firm up as candidates file petitions Randy Preston to face challenger in Wilmington in vote, but last election we had a person elected when I know votes were accepted when the name was spelled wrong,” Grinnell said. “It makes me wonder if spelling errors on ballots are more or less offensive then a typo on a header.” Grinnell was still weighing whether or not to challenge the decision by the Board of Elections, but is ready to face Giordano in the Sept. 12 Republican primary, knowing if he does not win the primary, he is out of the general election. “We will work very hard heading up to the Republican primary and hope that will be enough to carry us forward,” he said. Also in Ticonderoga, the four-way Republican race for town council could be narrowed to three, as Fred Provoncha was the only candidate not to have an independent petition. Joyce Cooper, Heath Towne and David Woods each filed successful independent petitions. In Crown Point, Charlie Harrington is back on the ballot for town supervisor after having his party petition denied by the board. The incumbent is running unopposed. Three incumbent supervisors have announced they will not seek re-election: Ed Gardner of Essex, Charlie Whitson, Jr. of St. Armand and Wes Miga of Newcomb. The candidates seeking to replace them — Ron Jackson, Dean Montroy and Robin DeLoria, respectively — are running unop-

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | Several anticipated races for town supervisor never materialized as the time came and passed for independent petitions to be filed to the Essex County Board of Elections. Out of the 83 petitions filed, only one set up a new race for supervisor, while another race could be decided at the Sept. 12 primary. In Wilmington, incumbent supervisor and Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston will be opposed by Thomas Sibalski. Both only filed independent petitions. In the only other contested supervisor race in the county, incumbent Ticonderoga supervisor Joe Giordano filed an independent petition, as did former supervisor and challenger William “Bill” Grinnell. However, Grinnell’s petition was deemed not acceptable and was thrown out. “There was a typo in the date for the general election so apparently, my petitions were not acceptable,” Grinnell said. The former supervisor also questioned how he has seen what he believes were recent errors treated. “We had a candidate lose an election because their name was spelled wrong on a write-

posed as their successors. Incumbent supervisors running unopposed in the upcoming election include Noel Merrihew of Elizabethtown, Jim Monty of Lewis, Stephen McNally of Minerva, Tom Scozzafava of Moriah, Michael Tyler of Westport, Shaun Gillilland of Willsboro, Archie Depo of Jay, Joe Pete Wilson of Keene, Michael Marnell of Schroon, Robi Politi, who entered the race as the lone candidate for supervisor from North Elba with an independent petition.

Along with independent-only supervisor candidates, the filing process entered several other new candidates into different races, In Lewis, Republican petitioner Lisa Cole will be challenged by Vaneessa Cross for the position of town clerk. Ann Cunnion, who had previously submitted a petition to run for the position of town council in Essex, withdrew from that campaign and is now running as an independent petitioner for the position of town clerk/tax collector against Alicia Kelly. Claire LaPine will still be a candidate for town board, while the other seat has been filed for election via and independent petition by Ken Hughes. Dean Dietrich became the sole candidate for the position of North Elba town justice, while Patrick Mitchell joined the race for a position on the Chesterfield town council along

with Clayton Barber and Richard Klages. Elizabethtown also had a third candidate for town council join the fray, as Jay Heald filed an independent petition and will face off against Cathleen Ruesser and William Wright. Jon Favro filed an independent petition for town council in North Elba, while Diane Lansing filed a petition for the position of assessor in Essex and Bruce Caza for the same position in North Hudson. In Jay, the position of highway superintendent has become a four-person race as independent petitioners Erin Himmel and William Lincoln joined Kevin Zaumetzer and John Pulsifer. William Skufca will run for the same position in Wilmington as a so far uncontested candidate. In the race for Minerva highway superintendent, Scott Fish joined the race to make it a three-way vote between himself, Jonathan Fish and Timothy Sheehan. All races could be impacted by the possibility of a write-in candidate. While write-in candidates have been often viewed as long-shots, that has not been the case recently as Joe Giordano defeated William Grinnell in the 2015 race for Ticonderoga town supervisor, while three candidates — Mark Davenport, Linda Smith and James Curran — swept the seats up for election in Port Henry on a pro-dissolution platform in March of 2016. ■

Essex County Fair a huge hit, say organizers Attendance, concessions way up in 2017 By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

WESTPORT | A Saturday which drew three times as many patrons helped springboard the 169th Essex County Fair into a successful venture in 2017. “Last year, we had 5,186 people paid through the gate in 2016,” said fair director Bridget Brown. “Through Saturday of this year, we were at 4,586 and I know we put at least 2,500 through the gate on Sunday. The memberships and concessions were also up.” One of the biggest factors in a successful five days of festivities and shows was the weather. Despite a heavy, consistent rainfall on Friday morning, the week featured nothing but sunny weather from Wednesday, Aug. 16 through Sunday, Aug. 20. “We could not have asked for better weather,” Brown said. “We definitely deserved it after last year. Rain is a reason the Saturday number was so low last year.” Another factor, which has continued to grow over the past few years, has been the number of events which feature local residents taking to the county racetrack for a number of events, including the youth Power Wheels demolition derby, pull and mud bog contest; trailer races (cars have trailers attached for a 30-lap feature on the quarter mile track); truck derby and burn-out contest. “The trailer race really took off this year,” Brown said. “Mike McCray took the initiative on these projects. When the race first started, it had five cars and now we had double digits. I think events like these are the ones that will continue to grow.” The fireworks on the opening night of the fair also drew a crowd, as did the annual Egglefield Ford demolition derby, which had cars entering through the noon hour. “I was surprised our numbers were down for the number of

cars in the derby, but the gate for the derby was way up,” Brown said. “We also had a big draw on Saturday for the truck pulls.” Brown said Friday was the slowest day at the fair. “The rain may have had something to do with that,” Brown said. “We did have a lot of people in the tractor pull, which lasted well past midnight.” Overall, Brown said she had heard nothing negative about the week. “I feel like it was a dream,” she said. “Next year will be our

170th annual fair, so we are hopeful we can get more vendors, grow our upper end and make improvements through grants to our cattle area. I think we are really starting to turn a corner and get back on track.” ■

The Essex County Fair saw significant increases in attendance and revenues for themselves and vendors after a strong week with clear skis and attractions which invited local residents to become part of the action. Photo by Jill Lobdell

Sentinels seek Class D three-peat By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga varsity football team has held the edge over their Class D rival for the past two years in late October. While losing several key players to graduation, the Sentinels will look to stay atop the sectional and league standings with the help of a pair of returning players. “Having a third-year quarterback in Evan Graney and a third-year linebacker in Jevyn Granger to lead the offensive and defensive sides of the ball is a strength for this squad,”

head coach Scott Nephew said. “We have a handful of three year varsity players that will provide solid leadership for the many varsity newcomers on this year’s team.” Along with Graney and Granger, the Sentinels also return linebacker Hayden Scuderi, who had a solid season in 2016 after breaking onto the scene in the Sentinels state championship run two years ago. Michael DuShane returns to play tight end and on the defensive line, while Trevor Parent returns as a running back and linebacker. The team also returns a pair of linemen in Sawyer Veneto and Brandin

Plumadore. “Our goals — as always — are to get better everyday, focus on everyday, working toward the game of the week,” Nephew said. “We need to be playing our best football week nine against what will be a very good Moriah football team.” Nephew said as the teams round into form, the more he looks forward to their progression as a Sentinel squad. “We need to have players step up into their roles on the team and stay focused on us, not any outside factors,” Nephew said. “We need to stay focused on Ticonderoga Football, and the things that we need to do as a football team.” ■

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga varsity cross country teams will look to improve throughout the season as they advance towards sectionals and states. “We will lack the depth we have had in recent years, but expect to improve greatly as the season progresses,” coach Jay Wells said. “On the guys side we will look for leadership from Caleb Pike while Sierra Stacey will lead the ladies. They are both coming off a solid summer of training and are excited to help the team get more competitive as we move through the season.” Wells said the goal is to get multiple kids from both teams to the state championships while winning as many meets as possible. The Lady Sentinels return a pair of state competitors in Stacey along with Madison Flora.

HaiLee Hearburg

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga varsity girl’s soccer team lost double-digit players to graduation in 2016, but will still look to use their speed to compete with the teams in Division II of the Northern Soccer League. Coach Tina Russell, who will lead the team along with Kathy Tubbs, said while they lost more members then needed to fill a starting lineup, there will be experience returning to the pitch. “Even though the Sentinels lost 13 players to graduation, 11 players are returning from last years team,” Russell said. “Those returning players will be called upon to help bring the new players up to speed. This is a must in order to have team success. With a need to improve the overall skill level of the team, the girls have been working hard and they continue to improve each day. Team speed continues to be our biggest asset.” ■

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CROWN POINT | A team loaded with returning talent and a schedule featuring games against the elite of Class D has the Panther varsity boy’s soccer team poised for big things in 2017. “We return 12 players from last year’s team,” coach Randy Pertak said. “We have a very solid core of seniors, juniors and sophomores. This team has played together for several years now and we have a lot of key skilled players and role players. They have had success over the last couple of years and hope to continue to build upon that and make a strong run in sectional play.” Pertak said conditioning has been a key in the preseason, along with learning a new formation of attack and defense. “With a couple of new additions learning to communicate on both the defensive and the offensive side of the ball is going to be key,” he added. “Senior Hunter Pertak and junior Zach Spalding will key the attacking third for the Panthers, while Cade DeBrobander and junior Reese Cellotti will work midfield.

CROWN POINT | The Crown Point varsity girl’s soccer team is ready to make the next step as the look to claim the Division III throne in 2017. “Our goal for the season is to finally win the Division III championship,” said coach Jayna Anderson. “This I believe is highly likely as long as everyone stays fit and healthy. We have a small roster of 15 so any injuries could be detrimental.” Anderson said the key for the Panters was a roster which has strengths in all thirds of the pitch. “Hannah Palmer has stepped up to play in goal this year and she is fantastic,” Anderson said. “She is extremely athletic and it will be hard to score on her. She was a 1st team MVAC all star last year. “Our defense of Christina

Simpson, Bailey Noel and Emily Russell have all started and had plenty of game experience in the back field,” Anderson continued. “We also have senior Shayla Trepanier who is new to the team but is not lacking in confidence or ability. Our midfield will be led by returning Juniors Shawna McIntosh and Taylor Noel, senior Mickaela Gunnison and sophomore Mya Pertak. “Our frontline is a returning force for several years running now,” said Anderson. “We have left wing all star player Kayli Stone, center striker and also an all-star Torrie Vradenburg and right wing stand out and 1st team MVAC player last year Swade Potter. These three work extremely well together. They are fast and agile and crosses will be flying in from both directions.” While a veteran roster, Anderson said new players will also be key. “Our newcomers are sophomores Hailey Rukat, who will be helping in the midfield and defense, and Maddison Nadeau who will be our back up goalie and helping in the

Vikings want D title back Lady Vikings improving By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PORT HENRY | Despite what you may have heard, Moriah is still in the heart of football country. As the school comes off a year where they won a state championship in basketball, the Viking boys of fall are ready to return the Section VII/Class D title to where they believe it rightfully belongs, and they are bringing a core of experienced players to help them overcome rival Ticonderoga come late October. “We return 16 players from last year’s team with nine starters on the offensive and defensive side of the ball,” Moriah coach Don Tesar said. He’s also bringing some depth as well. “We have 31 players on this year’s roster so we have team depth,” he said. Up front will be a key for the Vikings as they return four of their linemen, including Mike Rollins, Alex Larrow, Derek Manfred and Jacob Gibeau. They will set up the running and throwing game led by senior quarterback Dylan Trombley, who threw for over 1,000 yards last season.

“We also return our top two receivers from last in Connor Anderson and Ryan Flack,” said Tesar. Dewey Snyder, Ryan Flack and Jerin Sargent are also players who will look to make an impact for the Vikings this season. While the Vikings are set for the season, they know it all comes down to the Class D title game between the red and purple. “Every team wants to win their section and advance in the state playoffs and eventually the state championship in Syracuse,” Tesar said. “It is not an easy road and it’s hard enough to get out of our section. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication. “Our year will be a success if we are able to run and throw the ball consistently and not be one dimensional,” he said. “Defensively we have to be aggressive and communicate with each other.” For now, the team is focused on preparing for game one. “We are getting prepared and ready in short period of time,” he said. “Leadership from all the returners is important in getting all the underclassmen prepared for the season.” ■

“These athletes are well rounded. I believe our defense is solid and our offense will be competitive,” said coach Christina Slattery. Returning players include Sophie Bryant, Hailey Crossman, Samantha Hayes, Emily Manfred, Bailey Marcil, Madison Olcott, Lillian Perry, McKenzie Sprague, Makayla Stockwell and Stephania Zelinski. Newcomers include Sarah Anderson, Juliette Baker, Dyani Bryant, Sydney Langey, Madison Morgan, Morgan Sadowski, Somer Scorsome and Bailey White. ■

SCHROON LAKE

Lady Wildcats seek divisional glory By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

SCHROON | The Schroon Lake varsity girls soccer team is hoping their past two years of growth will lead to a top position in Division III of the Northern Soccer League in 2017. “We want to be the Division III champions this season,” coach MaryLou Shaughnessy said. “We came close last year only losing to Keene in division play, both times only giving up one goal. We also played in our first sectional game in over five years for girls varsity and we held Lake Placid in 1-1 tie through the third and fourth quarters until losing in the second overtime of sectionals.” The Wildcats will look to a core of five senior standouts, led by Alora Bearor at the goalie position. “The seniors all bring a talent and energy to the field,” Shaughnessy said. “Alora is an impressive power in the back as our main goalie, Amanda Grey is an outstanding defender and will prove it will be hard to get around her. Sam Grey has the determination to defend our goal and she has the speed to outrun anyone, Abi Belrose will be our top scorer with her fancy footwork on the

front line along with the consistent and steady support of Emily Maisonville controlling midfield.” Shaughnessy said there will be several contributors from the underclassmen as well. “Sienna Secor will be a strong force on defense, Lily Slyman and Dani Ramirez will work well together on the front line,” she said. “Grace Higgens will help control midfield with Emily but is also a force on the front line. Alysen Bruce is a valuable player in any position on the field. Cortney Lebel can shine as an offensive player or defender. My Sophomores and my Freshman will bring an energy and enthusiasm to the team while polishing their skills during practices and games. They have speed, energy, heart and commitment” For Shaughnessy, the key to the season comes down to how hard her squad works in practice. “We want to work on ball control and be a team with 100 percent commitment to give it our all when we are on the field,” she said, adding, “we have the speed, experience and heart to be the best and give 100 percent. “Our year will be a success if we are able to use our speed and ball control

skills to move past opponents and put the ball in the net first and fast. This should be an outstanding year for the Lady Wildcats!” ■

Wildcats ready to run By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

SCHROON | In each of the last two seasons, the Schroon Lake varsity cross country program has been low in numbers, but has sent members of the squad to the NYSPHSAA championship meet. Now, a group of six runners will seek to follow in the footsteps of Angie Stellabotte and Levi Williams and be the next Wildcat runner to advance to states. Under the direction of David and Heather Williams along with Terry Wisser, the 2017 squad includes seniors Ben Wisser, Megan Charboneau and Joe Slayterpryce; along with junior James Joesph, freshman Justice Kowal and eighth grader Shelbie Rice. “Schroon Lake is running as individuals with representation at varsity girls and boys and girls modified,” David Williams said. “Veteran Ben Wisser is returning as a senior with a goal to run at the states this year. Our year will be a success if we enjoy the sport of running.” ■

SCHROON | It will be a mixture of experience and youth which will help lead the Wildcats onto the field in 2017. “The core and strength of the wild cats come from our experience, flexibility in the midfield and our new additions to the team,” coach Derrick Denteh said. “Our team goals is to improve our chemistry one game at a time and make a run in the playoffs.” Micha Stout and Jordan DeZalia are expected to help lead the team, while Cian and Collin Bresnahan are a pair of newcomers who previously played for the Mountainside Christian Academy team. “An Important part of preseason will be conditioning, defining our roles, and setting our objectives,” Denteh said. “Our year will be successful if we work hard each day, stay healthy, have fun, and believe in one another.” ■
