WIPS is Study shows lots of tourists coming back Visitors to Essex County responded to marketing By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | Essex County’s tourism marketing agency says visitors spent $63 each last year for every dollar

Ticonderoga’s radio station is returning as an Internet broadcaster

spent on getting them here. Lake Placid-based Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism President James McKenna recently told the County Board of Supervisors that his agency does an analysis of tourist visitation every year. He said research firm PlaceMaking did the 2016 study, sending surveys by postal mail or email. Around 5,000 of 25,000 visitors who

were contacted responded, about 20 percent. “The demographics are going younger all the time, so that’s a good sign for us,” he said. “We have more variety in yearround (activities), which is good for jobs and everything else.” Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava (R-Moriah) pointed out that fishing tourism was high in Essex County, due to many fishing tournaments held on Lake Champlain. » Tourism Cont. on pg. 5

TICONDEROGA | Fans of defunct radio station WIPS will be happy to know it’s coming back. Now called “Super Station WIPS” and broadcasting over the Internet and through a smartphone app, the station should be up and running by Jan. 1, 2018, new owner Robert Streeter says. Streeter, who had various roles at the station in the 1970s and ‘80s, including announcing, advertising sales, sports and news, was in the Ticonderoga area recently to talk about his plans for WIPS. » WIPS Cont. on pg. 2

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga Natural Foods Co-Operative is ending the year with lots of participation and increased products. Manager Penny Monjeau said membership is up to 355, a significant increase over last tear. “We had a good summer,” she said. “We managed to achieve a lofty goal. It really is excellent.” People have been very supportive of the co-op since it opened in 2015, she said. “There’s a lot of love for the co-op,” she said. “We’ve also increased our stock. We restock weekly. We have a lot of different products.” Monjeau said co-operatives began in England in 1844 when people got together to sell their wares. “The benefit is there for farms, businesspeople,” she said. “There are 20 different farmers I can help

sell for. I’m one person working for everybody. “We want to support our local farmers and we want people to shop local. There’s a benefit to high quality, flavorful, fresh food that isn’t always available elsewhere.” The co-op sells nutritious, regionally-produced foods, she said. “People are trying to have better diets,” Monjeau said. “When you focus on quality you get a better diet. When you eat nutritional foods you do better in the long run. You focus on quality and get healthy bodies.” They can order and stock some things people ask for, she said. “We’re a consumer co-operative, so members suggest the production and distribution of the food supply at the co-operative,” she said. “We can help you with your food goals. If you’re a foodie or a gourmet, we can help.” This year, at Thanksgiving they will have local fresh turkeys available. “You can sign up for them, even order one with all the trimmings,” she said. “We’re working to meet as many needs as we can in the community.” The co-op at 111 Montcalm St. is one of the draws to Ticonderoga’s downtown, she said. Also, people don’t have to be members to shop there, although members get to buy at a discount. » Co-op Cont. on pg. 5

» WIPS Cont. from pg. 1 The station went off the air in 2008, citing financial difficulties. Its last owner was the late Gregg Trask, a former announcer at the station. Trask had moved the studios from Ticonderoga to Crown Point when he bought the broadcaster in 2005, but Streeter, who uses the air name J. Walter Scott, said local station personnel will now work at home and the station will originate from his data center in Conneaut, Ohio. General Manager Fred Provoncha of Ticonderoga is already lining up coverage, and programs like Talk of the Town and Swap Shop will return with daily news and sports broadcasts, Streeter said. “We want to blend the old history with new

technology,” Streeter said. “It’s impossible to bring WIPS back as we knew it at 1250 (kHz). They turned the (FCC) license back in.” Broadcasting over the Internet means people can’t listen in their cars, unless they have a cellular data connection, but they can have it on in homes and businesses. “I don’t think there are many people with as much experience at WIPS as I have,” Streeter said. “There’s a void in local news, local sports in the (Ticonderoga radio) market.” He said even though he’d relocated to Ohio he always missed the Ticonderoga area. “I love this place,” he said. “My heart is here.” People have clamored for the station, he said, on social media. “Why did they go out of business?” He

Owner Robert Streeter (right) and General Manager Fred Provoncha are bringing WIPS back as an Internet station starting on Jan. 1, 2018. Photo by Lohr McKinstry said. “They told me the market eroded. There wasn’t enough ad revenue.” He said the music WIPS played was a jumble of genres, but he has a solution to that. “We’re going to have not one, but six radio stations (streams) in Ti, each with a different genre,” he said. “We’ll have rock, country and western, contemporary Christian, Oldies, easy listening and current hits.” He said they’ll work with Ticonderoga Town Police to get news, just like the late David Downing, the station’s original news director, did. “We’ll write those stories and deliver them,” he said. “We’ll have local news every hour. We’ll present both sides; we’re politically neutral. In sports, we’ll bring the Sentinels, Panthers and Vikings back.” Those are the school mascots for Ticonderoga, Crown Point and Moriah. He said he plans play-by-play coverage of major high school games, just like WIPS used to do. “We’ll bring our local kids back to radio,” he said. “We’ll stream live from the games to our studio and out to our listeners.” The station will use the old WIPS jingle, “In the shadow of the great stone fortress,

this is WIPS, Ticonderoga, New York.” Instead of being down the street from Fort Ticonderoga, as it once was, the studio will be at his state-of-the-art broadcast facility in Ohio, he said, transmitting a 256k stream for high quality audio. Streeter also plans to place remote microphones at Ticonderoga and Moriah Chambers of Commerce for regular informational broadcasts. He said he’ll do the news at first, and Talk of the Town and Swap Shop will probably start in May 2018. “I’m not Dave Downing, but I get by,” he said, referring to Downing’s distinctive deep voice. “I do have a radio voice. My heart has always been behind the microphone. “Radio has always been in my blood.” He said he’s contracted with a talent agency in Los Angeles for professional voice actors to do work for the station. “We want to give the North Country something people can be proud of,” he said. “We’re going to make a difference. On Jan. 1, 2018, we’ll change the face of the North Country.” Contact WIPS News at rsj@nwpa.com, or call 518 278-0007. ■

something of interest.” New to TiCeltic this year will be artisan vendors selling high-quality wares from 2 until 6 p.m., including Vermont Celtic Company, Champlain Orchards, Betty’s Funny Farm and others. Vendors interested in reserving space should contact the Hancock House as soon as possible, as space is limited. October’s traditional Halloween celebration has its roots in the ancient Celtic New Year, so this year’s celebration will feature story telling, face painting and mask making activities for children, Dolback said. During the afternoon, several historic programs will be offered, as well as the exhibit “Irish in the Adirondacks” on loan from the Irish-American Museum in Albany. All activities until 6 p.m. are free to the public. A $10 ticket is required for the evening’s musical offerings. Beginning at 6 p.m., the haunting traditional melodies of Celtic music will fill the Hancock House grounds as Vermont-based bands Rowan and Gypsy Reel perform, followed by local favorite the Almost Celtic Loose Monkey Band. A complete schedule of events, as well as additional information regarding TiCeltic can be found at the Ticonderoga Historical Society website, on Facebook or by calling the Hancock House at 518-585-7868. ■

Photo provided » Tourism Cont. from pg. 1 McKenna said the study shows 525,000 visitors were impacted by ROOST marketing, and generated $146.4 million in leisure visitor revenue. The Leisure Travel Information Study results provide comprehensive traveler demographic insight for Essex, Franklin and Hamilton counties, he said. In addition to providing demographic data and trends, the study’s intent is to measure the effectiveness of ROOST’s marketing programs, to measure the return-on-investment ratio for public marketing expenditures and the conversion rate factor, which represents the number of leads who actually visited the region, McKenna said. Leads represent the contact information collected from individuals who responded to ROOST’s destination marketing efforts, such as online contest entries or newsletter sign ups. Although lakeplacid.com received 1.1 million unique visitors in 2016, the survey takes only trackable leads into consideration. By including Franklin and Hamilton counties’ data in the

study for the first time, both key regional consistencies and county differences emerged in the results. ROOST spent $2.33 million in tourism marketing for all three counties combined. Based on those figures, the study found that the three counties’ combined return-on-investment from ROOST was $63 for every $1 spent on marketing. The study said outdoor activities were the largest draw to the area, followed by dining and shopping, and sightseeing in third place. The average stay was 3.9 nights, and most people came in July and August, with an average age in the early fifties. “The results of this study contribute to our data-driven decisions, informing our ongoing marketing strategies,” said McKenna. He said each county has unique characteristics, and they will continue promoting them in different ways. ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Church dinners With all the world and national turmoil buzzing about, sometimes we forget the really important things By Dan Alexander that are happening • PUBLISHER • in our own backyard. There is nothing as important as a community that unites behind a common cause. Putting differences aside and focusing on a goal with a simple outcome. The good people in southeast Texas, the southern East Coast, Florida, the Keys and Caribbean Islands and especially those in Puerto Rico understand the value of community. Any community that has faced tough challenges understands that the basis for dealing with those challenges started long before the crisis hit. The connections made when communities come together to accomplish simple tasks like organizing a project as simple as a church dinner, service club event, school project, or community fair cannot be underestimated. It could be a car wash, a pancake breakfast or a community festival. It begins with a brave few who step forward to take the lead and champion the event. The word goes out for volunteers. Community members across all spectrums chip in donating time, supplies, labor, prizes and all forms of support. Planning, marketing, logistics, shopping, cooking, preparations for setting up the venue and servers all rally around the event to ensure success. Neighbors from far and wide lend their financial support by coming out to enjoy being part of something larger than self. At these events, we come to better understand the connections that bind us together and the tremendous value of a unified community. The value of spending time with our neighbors at events like these are what prepare us when tough times and tragedy strikes home and we know they arrive when we least expect them such as the horrific event in Las Vegas last Sunday night. The process of organizing and planning over and over throughout the years allows the community the opportunity to know many things about their neighbor’s skill sets and resources. All of which will be relied upon when it counts the most. The online world certainly has its place in today’s society, but nothing can replace the face-to-face smile and helping hand that occurs between neighbors when they share their efforts and breaks bread with a new found friend or lifelong pal while joining in the community effort. It is events like these that make all communities the very special places we call home. ■

Guest viewpoint Immigrant deportations as a humanitarian crisis By Robert Harsh, Champlain Valley Friends of Refugees GUEST V IEW POINT

The number of illegal immigrants seeking asylum status across the Canadian border north of Plattsburgh will this month likely exceed 4,000, including Haitians whose temporary asylum here following hurricane devastation and epidemic in Haiti is now ending. As a result, Canadian authorities are currently rushing to find and erect temporary housing for fleeing immigrants. The humanitarian consequences for illegal immigrants and their families facing deportation are deeply disrupting and troubling. Immigrant children born in the United States are citizens of this country (“birthers”) and may therefore be separated from their families and sent to orphanages in the U.S. as their parents are forced back across the border. At the same time, industries that have employed undocumented aliens at minimal wages without benefits or adequate health care are already experiencing a lack of workers as immigrants — typically hard-working and law-abiding — are arrested and deported. (Locally, substantial numbers of illegal immigrants work on farms in Vermont and slate factories on the Vermont/New York border further south near Granville.) Churches, service agencies, concerned individuals and legal organizations are working to address these issues, including St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Fort Edward;

an organization of immigration lawyers (Capital Region Immigration Collaborative) in Albany; the Volunteer Lawyers Project in Buffalo, and individual citizens willing to shelter immigrants in their homes along their journeys out of the country. In addition, our local Champlain Valley Friends of Refugees in April hosted a rally at the Underground Railroad Museum in Keeseville to highlight the inhumanity of Trump exclusionary policies and ICE-enforced deportations — now increased nationwide by 40 percent — for even traffic and other minor offenses. Most recently, the protected DACA status of over 800,000 young illegal immigrants (the Dreamers) has been suspended by President Trump pending an action by Congress in the next six months to preserve the program. And while numerous colleges have voiced support for their DACA students and refused to aid in their identification and deportation, ICE searches and seizures have left even these legal immigrants in jeopardy of sacrificing their educations and jobs. Our volunteer Friends of Refugees organization (website at adirondack-friends-ofrefugees.com), which since January 2016, has focused mostly on activities and services for vetted refugees settled in the Burlington, Vermont area, is now moving forward to also address the urgency of immigrant deportation issues generally and locally at the Canadian border just north of Plattsburgh. We are confident that many local residents

Letters

Thanks for the hyper-partisanship

To the Editor: The Sun Community News Editorial Board opinion from Sept. 30 seems to suggest that the hyper-partisanship that currently exists in our country is a result of the past nine months of a Donald Trump presidency. I would suggest that the past nine years is the time frame that has created this unhelpful, and perhaps dangerous, level of hyper-partisanship. Th is started during the tenure of Barack Obama and quite possibly was planned. It’s become clear over a period of years that Washington D.C. is no longer acting in the best interest of most Americans and is a complete mess, both parties. Voters responded to this by electing Donald Trump, probably out of frustration and perhaps not entirely confident of the outcome, but it was preferable to the Clinton deceit dynasty and a likely progressive left Supreme Court which would have been a huge game changer. Since the election of Trump, the progressive left, led by their mainstream media, has been in total meltdown in their efforts to destroy Trump. They were so close to a socialist type progressive victory, but it slipped away and now we have continuing hair on fire hyper-partisanship. I submit that Donald Trump hasn’t given us this mess, but rather this mess has given us Donald Trump. The Democrat left is in no mood to wait and see if it works out, so they obstruct and attack, the Republicans dither, and we Americans wait and wonder. ■ Ken Fenimore, Elizabethtown

have felt moved to address these issues while others can connect with efforts already in place in the region and with the resources and interactive conversation available on this website. Meanwhile, others who oppose this perspective and these efforts will instead argue that illegal immigrants are in fact “getting what they deserve” in choosing unauthorized entry into the country to take jobs away from native workers. (Jamaican workers picking apples locally enter the country lawfully and seasonally through a government-administered foreign worker program.) There are, indeed, determined, logical, and heartfelt arguments on both sides of this issue, though the crime rate among illegal Mexican immigrants — whom President Trump has characterized as “rapists” and “bad hombres” — has consistently remained lower than that of native citizens. Nevertheless, an act of illegal immigration is still a crime in this narrowed battlefield of contending perspectives, and perhaps this bitter debate will continue undiminished as long as comprehensive, fair-minded reform of immigration laws remains on the Congressional back burner. In the meantime, the poorest and most desperate of our immigrant neighbors and their children will continue to pay a nearly unbearable cost of living in their working and family lives among us. ■ — Bob Harsh is a guest contributor and his views do not reflect the opinion of the Sun Community News Editorial Board.

Give Stefanik a break

To the Editor: I am astounded at what is going on in our country and especially here locally. We have gone from a proud free country to a land of bickering and obstinacy. Locally, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) is being branded and opposed before she even commits to a position. On the repeal and replace bills, she stated she has not seen the Senate version, and until she does, she will not commit to a vote yea or nay. I would hope that everyone understands this position. I personally don’t want anyone in office that would automatically vote for or against anything before knowing the content. It is easy to get headlines by the “sticks and stones” kids games, but isn’t it better to save the name calling and playground antics until you have a real issue? I have known Stefanik since she first ran, was impressed then and now with her ability to see the entire picture and take whatever stand she feels best suits her constituents. If you buy a house, you can be sure it will not have all of the facets you want or desire — the same is true for the bills that come before our government officials to vote on. Our representatives must make an educated decision on what does the most good and the least harm in what is before them. I believe Stefanik has demonstrated just this and will continue to represent the North Country in the best interests of the citizens she represents. ■ Richard Cutting, Elizabethtown » Letters Cont. on pg. 7

It’s not about the money. Shelters take in more than six million animals every year, and because there aren’t enough good homes for all of them, about half must be euthanized. Every time we purchase a puppy from a breeder or pet store, it denies a home to a dog in a shelter whose life may depend on being adopted. Purchasing puppies not only exacerbates the homeless-animal overpopulation crisis, it supports the cruel puppy mill industry. Puppies raised at these mass-breeding factories are denied companionship, exercise, and adequate veterinary care. It’s why dogs sold at pet stores, who typically come from mills, are often sickly and difficult to socialize. There’s no need to shop around. Shelters offer all the love and companionship we need. ■ Craig Shapiro, PETA Foundation, Norfolk, VA

Concerns over rail car storage plan

To the Editor: We are very concerned with the Iowa Pacific’s plan to move and store old rail cars in the Adirondack Park. They tried this scheme in the past, but were stopped when the public and the Warren County Board of Supervisors objected. The rail company has not lived up to their promises made in the contract. The only profitable use of the rail corridor north of North Creek this year has been for recreation, including the Revolution Rail Company rail bikes. The recreational use of the rail corridor is obviously the future. Anyone who has been on the rail trail between Lake George and Glens Falls knows how popular it is and how it is used by both residents and tourists. We recently biked the P’tit Train du Nord in Canada. One night, we stayed at a bed and breakfast in a small town about the size of Minerva. The owner opened the business there three years ago because of the rail trail and told us that almost all his business comes from the P’tit Train. He said that approximately 400,000 people, both residents and tourists, use the rail trail each year. It’s used by bicyclists, walkers, snowmobilers and skiers. It’s an economic engine for that region. With a rail trail between Saratoga and North Creek, we could have a similar economic engine here. We will lose that potential if the old cars make their way here for storage. Instead of economic opportunity, we’ll have a junk yard. The Warren County Board of Supervisors should do everything in its power to keep this storage plan from happening. The board needs to find a way, and quickly, to stop the movement of the old cars on the county-owned tracks. ■ Richard and Anne Morse, Warrensburg

Stop the cruel puppy mill industry

To the Editor: Reports of an online scam in which consumers who are shopping for puppies are being duped out of their payments are a reminder that we should never purchase our animal companions — online or from a pet store or breeder.

Where are the details, Mr. President? To the Editor: Dear Mr. President: Please explain what you mean. You said that you would make America great again. What does that mean? How will we know when we are great again? Many of us Americans are certain that we are a great country and always have been. What are the specifics of a health care law that would be “ cheaper and better?” We are waiting for your details. You said “the US military is a mess.” What is specifically wrong with it? What are you doing to fix it? Who has a military that is better and stronger than ours? What are your plans for fixing it? You have said that Clinton is a liar, Obama is a liar, Cruz is a liar, the media are a liars. What are their specific lies? How do you know they are lies? You said that Putin is a better leader than Obama. How do you know this? What is your definition of leadership in a democratic society? You recently spoke of increasing American involvement in the war in Afghanistan. What are your expected outcomes? What is your definition of “winning,” and how will that

To the Editor: Let’s get one thing cleared up: The protests started by Colin Kaepernick and others have nothing to do with the flag. It is a protest over the many instances of police shootings of unarmed black people. Prior to cell phones, there was always some question as to the veracity of people who claimed the police were overreacting when someone was shot by the police. There is no doubt now that the police are, at times, using excessive force. If you were as interested in helping bring people together over these issues, you would have called for a discussion of the issue of police procedures and even perhaps some clarification in the laws over the lengths police could go when stopping a suspect. Instead you put on your snark hat and wrote “when we can’t even put aside our differences for a few hours to watch athletic millionaires concuss each other.” I find this sentiment pathetic. Our “bloviator in chief ” only jumped on the issue to create a fissure in the body public and to shore up his popularity with his supporters. Your editorial just assisted in the division. Thanks for nothing. ■ Scott Scharhag, Champlain

Lynn Earl Harrington

TICONDEROGA | Lynn Earl Harrington, 79, of Ticonderoga and Zephyrhills, Florida, died Sept. 24, 2017 at Gulfside Hospice in Zephyrhills. He was born April 26,1938 to Earle Clayton and Harriett (Howe) Harrington in Ticonderoga. Lynn is survived by his wife of 58 years, Deann (Wakeman) Harrington; two sons, Dale (Sheila) Harrington of Ticonderoga and Steve (Diane) Harrington of Talking Rock, Georgia; one daughter, Penny Dee (Bradley) Bushell of Darien, Connecticut; one brother, Earl (Sally) Harrington of Putnam Station; seven grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by three brothers, Clayton, John and James Harrington and one great granddaughter, Abigail Cooper. Lynn retired from International Paper after 39 years of service, where he began as floor sweeper and worked his way up to superintendent of maintenance, working at several mills in the Northeast. Upon retirement Lynn and his wife moved into their motor home and traveled the United States and Canada for 15 years, helping build houses with Habitat for Humanity, and working in disaster areas with the Methodist Nomads. He was a U.S. Army veteran who greatly valued his tour of duty and travel in Europe.

country be ruled after the war is won? What will be America’s role in Afghanistan then? You recently said at the UN meeting, that the 2015 nuclear arms deal with Iran was “one of the worst and most onesided transactions the United States has ever entered into.” What makes it so bad? What are the specifics about the deal that you are referring to? What would constitute a better deal? And what are your strategies for improving the Iran transaction? Finally, Mr. President, do you have specifics to back up anything you say? Leadership in a democratic society requires a grasp of factual details to clarify one’s political/ governmental positions. Where are YOUR factual details? ■ Edward Welch, Johnsburg

Don’t be fooled by bogus claims. The comparison between The SUN’s United States Postal Service circulation and what others may tell you or imply is like comparing a watermelon to a grape!! We hear from customers on occasion, “X-Publication Rep says you SUN folks are full of it with your distribution numbers.” Then we show them the third party, proven facts. Frankly, we just love to compare the real, veriﬁable numbers, because when we do, the competition simply shrinks like a raisin! We are so conﬁdent in our weekly circulation facts, we’ll give $1,000 to any local charity for any other print media who can prove their weekly circulation comes even close to how many homes The SUN reaches in Clinton, Essex, Franklin and Warren Counties.

» Video King Cont. from pg. 1 By Pete DeMola EDITOR

TICONDEROGA | The door dinged and patrons lost themselves in long rows of movies. Brightly-colored posters drew attention to recent blockbusters. A rack advertised DVDs for sale and soft drinks for just $1. The only thing missing was the scent of buttery, theatre-style popcorn. If it wasn’t for the rows of television shows like “Orange Is the New Black” and “iZombie,” you might be forgiven that it wasn’t 1993, but rather 2017 — and video stores are quickly becoming a historical curiosity. “There’s not many of us left,” said Darren Witherbee, owner of Video King on Montcalm Street. While scores of rental stores have closed or shifted their focus to video games or hosting live-action roleplay in order to remain sustainable, Witherbee remains staunchly dedicated to the art of celluloid. Film is an escape, he said. “I love movies — it takes you away from all of the stuff that goes on in this world.” In a throwback to their 1980s and 1990s heyday, Video King receives new releases every Tuesday. Rentals are $4 for two days, roughly comparable to prices a decade ago. Some 4,500 catalog items are available for rental and purchase, with new videos available to buy for between $5 and $8. Several dozen regulars continue to utilize package details — including four rentals for seven days for $12 — which they renew weekly. And catalog flicks are just $1. “It’s unbelievably cheap,” Witherbee said. “Cheaper than Redbox,” referring to the automated kiosk stationed at the nearby WalMart, an existential threat. Witherbee, 44, has always been drawn to movies, recalling childhood days spent entirely at the now-shuttered Doc’s Video. “I was in there constantly,” he said. “One

day, I told myself I was going to own a video store. This was my dream even as a little kid.” Witherbee learned the ropes as an employee in 2005. After a series of professional detours and hurdles, he took ownership of Video King in Oct. 2008. The regional chain was a once-common presence throughout the northeast. “I’m the last one,” he said. The current location is his fourth in downtown Ticonderoga. As he shuttles between storefronts, Witherbee has seen his fortunes decline. The businessman cleared $125,000 gross revenue in 2008, a number that’s been slashed in half. He works seven days per week, and estimated he paid himself about $13,000 last year. “It’s not easy,” Witherbee said. “Believe me. It’s very, very rough.” It’s been a decade since the industry took a nosedive. There were some 30,000 video stores in the U.S. in 1989, according to Flavorwire. The number dwindled to 6,000 in 2014. At the height of their powers, Blockbuster Video alone operated more than 9,000 outlets, bringing in $6 billion in annual revenue, according to Forbes. After the company declared bankruptcy in 2010, just several dozen remain today, and myriad other chains have gone out of business entirely. For Witherbee, customer service is key. He greeted patrons by name from behind the cash register on a recent weekday afternoon. Straight-to-DVD films have become more commonplace in the industry, and are increasingly drawing bigger names, including megastars like Bruce Willis. There are so many upstart production companies, Witherbee said, it’s often difficult to discern quality. But his customers depend on him to separate the wheat from the chaff. Witherbee watches as many films as possible, briefing customers on which production companies have developed good reputations, and which have a poor track record when it comes to acting and special effects. Another trend going for Video King is the

Video King owner Darren Witherbee, 44, said he is one of just a handful video store operators left in the region. Photo by Pete DeMola remote character of the Adirondack Park. Seasonal residents are among his best customers. They come to unwind the oldfashioned way — offline and outdoors — and venture into town whenever they need weekend entertainment. “Quite a few families like it up here — that’s how I get through my summers,” he said. Locals are the opposite. After being cooped up all winter, many hit the ground running once the weather thaws and don’t look back. The lack of widespread broadband access means many residents cannot use streaming services like Amazon, Hulu and Netflix, all of which have devoured the rental market. Witherbee knows the service will eventually become universal, citing ongoing efforts to fully wire the state by the end of 2018. WalMart also poses a challenge. The retail colossus offers new releases for purchase immediately, whereas Video King must wait to sell new titles for four weeks after their release as per their contract with the distributor. Even following Hollywood trends in the hopes that some magic will rub off is no longer reliable as it once was. The 2014 superhero flick “Guardians of the Galaxy” was a smash hit, and Witherbee made money on it.

He banked on a repeat when the sequel was released on DVD in August, ordering eight copies. But it fell flat with his customers, and he took a hit in the pocketbook. Even the traditional distribution model is declining as more and more companies are opting to release films online. Most major film studios no longer even print posters for rental outlets. The latest on display — “Nebraska” and “The Wolf of Wall Street” — were both released in late-2013. Unlike other rental outlets who have tweaked their business model to adapt to the modern landscape, Witherbee doesn’t see video games as a way to bolster business, namely because many companies have switched to online gameplay. He shudders at what will happen once his regulars, which he estimates number three dozen, start to decline. “I don’t make money now. I don’t see it in the future getting any better. It’s just an uphill battle,” Witherbee said. While video stores are no longer the epicenter of weekend nightlife, Witherbee sees staying open as part of a higher calling to serve a community with scant entertainment options. “I don’t know how much longer I can go,” Witherbee admitted. “But I’m going to go as long as I can. It’s important for me to stay open.” ■

My journey to recovery By Karissa, TiNADA Coalition Battling addiction and winning has been the hardest thing I have had to do. It was a five year battle of trying to get and stay clean. I had periods of clean time, but never was able to make it past six months. I tried inpatient rehabs, intensive outpatients, and medication assisted treatment (MAT). Nothing working for the long term. Why couldn’t I stop using for good? People say that it takes a person to hit their bottom before they can take this seriously and beat the demon. For me, this was so far from the truth, because once I hit a bottom and thought I could only go up from there, I would hit an even bigger bottom. It saddens me to see addiction have the stigma it does. When I was a child, I didn’t say, “When I grow up, I want to be a drug addict.” I struggled with peer pressure: I had no idea who I was and using made me feel like everything was okay. Sadly, it only took one time using opioids for me to get hooked. It happened at a time in my life when I was so broken from my marriage. I started out with recreational drinking and using cocaine while I was out, but that quickly progressed to using cocaine daily. Afraid that I was taking this too far, I checked into rehab and while I was there I was offered opioids. I instantly loved the feeling and left rehab with an even bigger problem then what I showed up with. The opioids ruled my life.

Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

TiNada I went to outpatient and tried to stop for fear of them taking over my life, but I was already in over my head. This cycle of using and trying to get help lasted for five years. I was finally arrested, and what should have been the worst day of my life turned out to be one of the best. I applied for a program called “drug court” so I could avoid prison and not miss out on five years of my children’s lives. I had already wasted five and now that I was starting to see things clearly, I understood that they deserved so much better. How ignorant of me to think I was not affecting my children with my drug-using way of life just because I didn’t use directly in front of them. I was accepted into drug court and had to start 90 recovery meetings in 90 days. This proved to be so hard, seeing how Ticonderoga had only a few support group meetings. A friend and I took it upon ourselves to find a place to start a Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meeting and we did just that. A couple months after that was up and running successfully, I scheduled a meeting with the pastor of Cornerstone Alliance Church and wanted to start another meeting. I just couldn’t understand how people knew there was such a problem in the area with drugs yet it seemed like they were doing nothing to help. Pastor Charlie jumped right in and he never looked back. Together he and I started the first Celebrate Recovery (CR) meeting in the area. The awesome thing about CR is that it differs from NA and AA meetings in that it is not just for addicts. It’s for anyone with a hurt, a habit or a hang up. Fast forward a year and a half later and here I am — still sober!

So what was missing? How did I make it past six months of sobriety, something I couldn’t do previously? It was how I chose to handle recovery: the getting clean part is easy, it’s maintaining that proves to be difficult. I go to three meetings a week religiously and I have a strong relationship with Jesus — something I didn’t think I was good enough to have. Pastor Charlie and his wife and a couple from Brant Lake that come here every Tuesday to pray for addicts in the area took me under their wings and believed in me. They helped me to foster a relationship with Christ and here I am today, about to graduate drug court, living in my own home with my children who are so happy to have their mommy back, starting my photography business up again, and trying to help other addicts have the same. If I could offer any advice to anyone struggling and wanting long term sobriety, I would say come to meetings, trust in the people that are there to help you and don’t forget about your spirituality. So many people get clean and then plateau because they are still spiritually broken. Addiction is, after all, a physical, mental, and spiritual disease and recovery has to address all three of these areas. I invite anyone interested in chatting informally about addiction or recovery in a comfortable setting to come for coffee and dessert this Thursday, Oct. 12, at 20 Amherst Ave. I’ll be there from 6:30-7:30 p.m. along with some of my friends from the TiNADA Coalition. Hope you can make it — we’d love to see you! ■ — Krista has shared her story as part of an ongoing colloboration between the Sun Community News and TiNADA. This column is the third in a six-part series chronicling the journey to recovery.

“HAIR OF THE DOG”

deroga Historical Society, is giving a presentation called “Good-bye Canvas – Bonjour to Steam.” The program is in the downstairs program room at the Hancock House at 6 Moses Circle on Friday, Oct. 13, at 7 p.m., and is free to the public, with light refreshments served. Thousands of years before Christ was born, men paddled their boats with their hands, eventually discovering oars, and then came sails – and then the use of oars with sails, Lamb said. “With a faster way of travel, thus began exploration of the world,” he said. Moving through thousands of years to the 1770s, Scotsman James Watts developed the steam engine and then a centrifugal governor in 1788, subsequently creating the beginning of the industrial revolution. And this sets the scene for another in-depth historical program about ships by Lamb, a naval historian, marine engineer, and Scotsman. This program by Lamb is one of an expanded series of programs, events and activities planned at the society. “The society invites you to take this opportunity to join your friends at the Hancock House for Bob’s presentation, which is a part of the society’s celebration of the 200th anniversary of steamboats on our region’s lakes, said William Dolback, president of the Historical Society. “A steamboat exhibit is now in an upstairs exhibit room, which we hope people will take an opportunity to visit.” The Ticonderoga Historical Society is open Wednesdays through Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, contact the Ticonderoga Historical Society at 518-585-7868; email tihistory@bridgepoint1.com. ■

From the Sidelines RIVALRY GAME THIRLLER

In round one, the rivalry between Moriah and Ticonderoga was evBy Keith Lobdell erything you could have • SPORTS EDITOR • wanted, as the Vikings jumped out to a lead, the Sentinels responded with 20 straight points, the Vikings score a touchdown and make an impressive goal line stand to give themselves one more chance before falling to Ticonderoga, 20-16. Ticonderoga went back to an old friend in the second half, pulling the read-option out of the playbook to great effect. Evan Graney ran for 120 yards and one touchdown in the second half after being limited to just two yards in the first. Trevor Parent added 82 yards while Hayden Scuderi ran for 79 yards and a score. Graney threw just three passes, connecting on two for three yards with a scoring strike to Russ Gallo, who caught both passes completed. Gallo was called on to replace the injured Jevyn Granger, who went down with a leg issue early in the game. Along with catching the touchdown pass, Gallo made a key interception in the second half. “I just play my game and do what I can for the team,” Gallo said. “We all work hard.” “Russ is a kid that does a lot of things for us that do not show up in the scorebook, but he is a big part of this team,” coach Scott Nephew said. “He got a chance and made a big interception for us and caught the touchdown pass.” It was reminiscent of two years ago, when Scuderi replaced an injured Caleb Munson and made huge plays on the defensive side of the ball to help the Sentinels get to the Carrier Dome. On the Moriah side of the ball, Connor Anderson had a strong game, rushing for 134 yards and a touchdown, while Matt Pelkey scored another on 36 yards. Dylan Trombley was limited to 75 passing yards and two interceptions, with the second coming on a hail Mary type play at the end of the first half. The Sentinels (5-0) travel to Plattsburgh High School this Friday, while Moriah will host Saranac Lake, also on Friday night.

IN THE MIX

In what was one of the craziest weeks in girl’s Division II soccer, the Moriah Lady Vikings are still in the mix for the top seed in Class D, tied with Chazy for the top record in the division at 6-3-1 as of printing. It was an up-and-down week for the Vikings, scoring a 1-0 win over Northern Adirondack as Madison Olcott scored on a Stephania Zelinski assist and Samantha Hayes had three saves in the shutout. The tables were turned on Monday, however, as the Vikings dropped a 3-0 contest against Lake Placid, with Hayes making nine saves.

BIG WIN

The Lady Sentinels scored a big win Oct. 3 against Seton Catholic as Meg McDonald, Summer Snyder and Emily Pike scored in a 3-1 win against the Lady Knights. Aubrey Smith made 11 saves in the win. Smith made 17 saves against Chazy in a 4-1 loss in which the team played well, as Chloe Rocque scored the lone goal of the game. Omni Bezon scored in a 2-1 loss against Lake Placid, with Sarah Bresett picking up the assist and Smith making 13 saves, Ben Wisser scored an individual victory in the CVAC cross country meet held in Champlain, recording a time of 15:35. Ticonderoga’s Caleb Pike followed in fourth place at 16:58.

BOYS SOCCER SHOWCASE

Crown Point and Schroon Lake came together for the second time this season Oct. 2, as Noah Spaulding opened scoring for the Panthers before Collin Bresnahan responded for the Wildcats, Zach Spaulding would give Crown Point the lead heading into the second half before Ryan Hannemann scored to level the Wildcats at 2-2. After that, it was all Crown Point, as Zach Spaulding scored twice and Hunter Pertak added an insurance goal as the Panthers came away with a 5-2. Jacob Norton made 13 saves for the Panthers, while Harrison Gereau turned away 10 shots for the Wildcats. In non-league play, Norton made 15 saves as the Chazy Eagles scored a 6-0 win over the Panthers.

SCHROON LAKE

The Lady Wildcats dropped a 1-0 contest against Johnsburg Oct. 3, with Taylor Dwyer scoring the lone goal and Alora Bearor making 12 saves for the Wildcats. The Wildcats were able to earn a 2-1 overtime victory over Willsboro Sept. 27, as Abi Belrose scored the game-winner in overtime, her second of the game after scoring the equalizer in the second half. Bearor made seven saves in the win.

CROWN POINT

The Lady Panthers kept pace with Johnsburg Oct. 3 with a 7-0 win against Minerva-Newcomb as Torrie Vradenburg and Swade Potter each scored two goals, while Kayli Stone, Shawna McIntosh and Hannah Palmer also scored. Palmer also made seven saves in net. The Panthers also scored a win over Wells, 5-0, as the Panthers held a 47-9 advantage in shots. Hannah Palmer made six saves in the win. The lone setback of the Division III season so far came at the hands of Johnsburg, who scored a 3-2 victory Sept. 27. Hannah Palmer racked up 34 saves in the loss, while Swade Potter and Torrie Vradenburg scored the goals. ■

The Town of Moriah is seeking to develop the waterfront at Bulwagga Bay Campground.

Town fights against derelict properties The Moriah Town Council wants abandoned homes cleaned up By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

MORIAH | Although many residents would like that, abandoned and zombie homes in the Town of Moriah can’t just be demolished, Town Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava says. The town has recently had numerous complaints about vacant houses that are unsafe, Scoz-

zafava said at a recent Town Council meeting. Scozzafava said he met with Town Attorney John Silvestri over property maintenance issues and condemnation of property. “You can’t just go in and bulldoze them over,” Scozzafava said. “You have to have a court order. He (Silvestri) is researching that and will get back to us. “Everybody wants these properties cleaned up and I want them cleaned up. You have to do it legally.” He said once tickets are issued by the Town Building Codes Department, they go to town court.

“The court makes the final determination as to what’s going to happen,” Scozzafava said. “It’s out of our hands.” The town is moving along with plans to develop the Lake Champlain waterfront it owns at the Bulwagga Bay Campground. Councilor Luci Carpenter said she’s working on getting a waterfront consultant to seek developers and funding. “We need to amend and continue contract services with Crane Associates,” she said. “Everything will be funded with a DEC (state Department of Environmental Conservation) Smart Growth grant.

Community party is planned The Moriah Chamber of Commerce offers Halloween fun By Lohr McKinstry STA FF W RITER

PORT HENRY | The Moriah Chamber of Commerce will sponsor a community Halloween party at its downtown offices.

The free party is from 2 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 22 at chamber offices at 4317 Main St. in Port Henry. Cider and donuts will be served and activities will include pumpkin painting and crafts. Children of all ages are urged to wear their costumes, chamber President Cathy Sprague said. “This event is for children and adults, anyone who wants to stop in,” she said. “It’s a pre-Halloween party for all ages.” Port Henry and Moriah have a strong trick-or-treating tradition, she said, with groups of kids going door-to-door through

‘We’re moving forward on this. There’s a task list with an estimated budget line.” Crane Associates of Burlington, Vt. prepared a waterfront revitalization study that showed the best use would be to expand the campground with cabins and yurts or even lease it for a hotel. Scozzafava said the town attorney told him leasing the campground is subject to a mandatory referendum. “The people would decide,” he said. The board voted to enter into negotiation for contract extension with consultant Michael Crane, and will vote when the cost is known. ■

the town to get candy from residents. Trick-or-treating is on Halloween, which is Tuesday, Oct. 31 this year, she said. The party was scheduled so it wouldn’t interfere with the regular trick-or-treat activities. The chamber has already filled the community with brightly-garbed scarecrows for Halloween. ■

Six county regional HAZMAT training

The clock read 5 a.m. I was already awake and thinking about the day ahead. It’s Sept. 16, and training is scheduled in the North Country. The black Essex County HAZMAT By Rich Redman diesel pickup pulled into the driveway • COLUMNIST • and off I went with a group of guys up to Franklin County for a yearly multi-county Hazmat training session. We pulled into the Fort Covington Fire Department joining up with firefighters, hazmat technicians, EMTs, Franklin County Sheriffs, New York State Police, CSX railroad staff and Department of Homeland Security personnel. The parking lot was filled with fire engines, Hazmat trucks and trailers, squad cars and EMS vehicles. High “T” was flowing; no prescription was needed by the guys here. This was no back yard local yokel incident we were going to participate in. This was the real deal; a fullfledged incident railroad training to prepare the group of us to work and train together, find our weak links, solve problems and prepare for the real event; an event we hope never happens, but odds are, it will someday. It was a humid 80 plus degree day and donning a level A plastic bubble suit with an air pack strapped on your back was not something we were really excited to do. There were thoughts of picnics with acoustic music, fishing or sailing out on Lake Champlain and enjoying a few adult beverages under a shade tree in many of our heads, as preferred adventures, but we are committed neighbors that care about our community, so we do what we do. Some were paid firefighters like the Glens Falls

Conservation Conversations (Warren County), Plattsburgh (Clinton) and Ogdensburg (Saint Lawrence) teams, while others are paid through work, like the International Paper team, part of Essex County’s Hazmat Team. Volunteer teams consisted of Essex, Washington, and Franklin County along with EMS assistance from Bombay. Whether paid or volunteer, it doesn’t matter. We are all on the same regional team working as one. Once the initial signing in and safety briefing was completed, we headed to the training location. The site was alongside the CSX railroad tracks where there was a mock railcar leak. At long range and up wind, it was determined by binoculars that the railcar was leaking chlorine based on the signage on the rail tank car and the color of the gas plume. Simulated smoky chlorine gas was the leaking from under the railcar. Chlorine gas is deadly and can kill if inhaled. This meant a level A chemical spill suit with a selfcontained breathing apparatus would be needed by entry teams. It was also noted that three victims were near the car, immobilized by the vapors (the victims for training purposes are Rescue Randy dummies). While the command was organizing teams, the decontamination (DECON) tent was set up. No one enters a contaminated hot zone site until all components of decon are set up. Once decon was ready, the reconnaissance team did the initial entry to check on the victims and radio back to command what the next entry teams would need for equipment to remove the victims and control the leak. If a victim was able to move on their own they would be helped out. If not, they would be strapped down to a plastic sked and two level A suited team members would pull them to the DECON site to be decontaminated and medically evaluated. Due to the heat and extreme humidity, entry teams were only on air and on site for no longer than twenty

minutes before they went into the DECON area. Once the suit was cleaned of any chemicals, it was taken off and the teams went to rehab and medical to be checked out. Hydration was a big factor, so plenty of water was needed. I was with the last team (Essex County) to go in. Greg Quain and I extricated the last body from the leaking car. We carried it off the tanker and set it on the sked, strapped it down and pulled it to the DECON area. Once we got into the shade and out of our greenhouse effect, humidified sweat steaming level A suits, and air packs we breathed cool fresh air, chilled out, and went through the medical check. Blood pressure, body temperature, pulse rate and oxygen level all checked out OK. We were good to go another day. After a briefing and evaluation, we had a meal and returned to base. It was a good day, not quite a picnic at the beach, but for the dedicated group of guys and gals who take this serious; it was a very good day and well spent. Power nap time! P.S. Tom and Jeannette: Sorry I didn’t make it to your picnic. I was a little busy! ■

Westport resident heads to Puerto Rico for Hurricane Maria relief efforts Crown Point-based Avery Energy at forefront of relief efforts By Pete DeMola EDITOR

ELIZABETHTOWN | As Puerto Rico digs out after Hurricane Maria slammed the island last month, killing at least 16 people and wiping out the electricity grid, a local resident has shipped out to aid in recovery efforts. Simon Mitchell, a driver for the Crown Point-based fuel oil company Avery Energy, left for Puerto Rico on Monday. Mitchell’s truck is already on route: A barge containing vehicles, food, water and temporary housing for relief workers left from the Port of Jacksonville in Florida last week on a six-day trip to the U.S. territory. “There’s quite a bit of uncertainty involved,” Mitchell told The Sun before he left. “But it’s a

once-in-a-lifetime experience the way I look at it. I’m nervous, but excited at the same time.” Mitchell recently returned from Florida, where Hurricane Irma made landfall earlier this month. The Westport resident made it as far as the central part of the state, where he was a part of a fleet of drivers tasked with setting up a temporary depot to fill emergency response vehicles, including police cars, ambulances and fire trucks. Damage there was minimal, he said, mainly blown-down tree limbs. But others in his crew went to Key West where they saw the extent of the Category 5 hurricane’s damage firsthand. “There was boats capsized, RV parks with campers tipped over on their sides, roofs blown off — everything you can imagine was torn up,” said Mitchell. Avery Energy has longstanding ties to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. As the series of storms began to gather momentum in late-August, owner Will Deyo

just wanted to slip away from work for two days to go camping. But it wasn’t meant to be, and he found himself in the campgrounds office doing FEMA paperwork. Within eight hours, one of his trucks was on the way to Florida. Two more followed on Sept. 13. “They were looking for trucks and people, and we jumped at the chance to help,” Deyo said in a phone interview. Mitchell was told to expect to spend at least 45 days on Puerto Rico, which is home to about 3.4 million people. “When they hit the ground, it’s going to be a rough situation,” Deyo said. “We don’t expect to have much contact. It’s 45 days, and could be longer.” Mitchell, Deyo said, is making a big sacrifice — especially considering how much time he’s already put in. Since Hurricane Maria slammed into the island on Sept. 20, a humanitarian crisis has

emerged as millions remain without water, food and access to basic health services. Joining federal efforts, New York has played a leading role in recovery operations, deploying the national guard, state police and shipments of supplies as part of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Empire State Relief and Recovery Effort — including a deployment of 72 Port Authority personnel Friday morning. The Empire State is home to about 1.2 million Puerto Ricans, and the governor visited the island earlier this week. “We are responsive both as Americans and in this state,” Cuomo said. “In Puerto Rico, they are American citizens we have to remember. Virgin Islands, they are American citizens. So we respond as Americans, and in New York, we respond as New Yorkers.” Deyo has long been involved in state and local charitable efforts. “We love to be a part of anything we can do to help in the community, and in this case, the world,” he said. ■

United Way kicks off fundraising drive Annual fundraiser seeks $725,000 goal in 2017 By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | The United Way spent time with the Essex County Board of Supervisors Oct. 2 addressing the issue of poverty in the region.

“Poverty is alive and well in our region,” Executive Director John Bernardi said. “It has changed the way it looks since the Great Depression to the War on Poverty in the mid 60s.” Bernardi said the working poor are working several jobs to make ends meet. But it’s barely enough for thousands of local residents. “If you are an individual who makes $12,000, the federal government would have you believe they are not in poverty,” Bernardi said. “For an individual in Essex County, you have to

be making $23,000 as an individual and a family of four needs to be making $60,000 to even begin to live without services that your departments provide.” Bernardi said the United Way is there to help municipalities to find help for the needs of their residents. “Reach out to us. Often times, people are looking for resources and they do not know where to turn,” he said. “I welcome the opportunity to get a call from each of you to help address a need and help someone out.”

Lewis supervisor and new member of the United Way board Jim Monty challenged the members of the board to donate to the program. “If we all pitched in a $20 a (pay) check, that is easily $10,000 just from the board!” Monty said. “It becomes easy to so our employees when we have already led by example.” The United Way campaign goal for 2017 is $725,000.
