Keeseville dissolution timeline discussed
100 LOOPS FOR 100 DAYS
ELIZABETHTOWN

CATS clears Wadhams trail
KEESEVILLE — The village of Keeseville has started down the road that could lead to the end of the incorporated municipality. Mayor Dale Holderman and New York Department of State representative Sean Maguire spoke to members of the Board of Trustees and residents Feb. 12 about the next steps in the dissolution process. "We are accepting the vote as legal tonight, and our time clock starts tonight for 180 days," Holderman said. "We have that time to present this dissolution plan to the public. We will probably have one or two public hearings on it and take into consideration the comments of the public. Then we will come back as a board and approve a plan."

ELIZABETHTOWN — Eight ElizabethtownLewis students made their way to Boston recently to participate in the Harvard Model UN. “It was a great year,” Model UN co-advisor Pete Castine said. “This was the 60th anniversary of the Harvard model UN and the 20th year that we have
sent a team from ELCS to it. The kids were prepared really well and had spent three months meeting and researching to know the country and the topics they would be representing.” The ELCS contingent represented Australia during the event, which saw students on several different committees and panels. “They did really well,”
co-advisor Kate McCormick said. “We brought a couple of newer students into the process, and everyone was able to participate and speak once they got over that initial shock.” “It was kind of unexpected, the vast amount of kids that you are there with,”said junior Geeg Dedam, who attended his first Harvard UN. “There were about 3,000 kids in

one room, and it was interesting to meet kids from all over the world and hear their thoughts and views on the topics that were brought up.” “There were so many different people from so many different countries,” said freshman and firstyear attendee Emma Disogra. “It was really cool to meet them and learn from each other.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 8
KEESEVILLE — The Essex County Public Health has confirmed another raccoon with rabies in the Village of Keeseville. There were 19 confirmed cases of rabies reported to the ECPH in 2012 and only nine confirmed cases reported in 2011. This year there have already been two confirmed cases of rabid animals, a skunk and a raccoon. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

On Feb. 14, Valentine’s Day, Simon and Amanda Cording exchanged vows at the Westport Town Hall with town clerk Sheila Borden officiating at the ceremony. On hand to witness the service were Lawrence and Dorothy Bliss, Borden’s parents, who celebrated their 68th wedding anniversary Feb. 22. The Cordings had been married three months earlier by Borden, and renewed their vows. Said Simon, “I love her more now than I did three months ago. We knew that we were going to have to renew our vows, and Valentines Day seemed like the perfect opportunity to do that.”

ave you visited our "animals available for adoption" link on our website lately? Sponsored by Petfinder, our list of animals includes information about each of our dogs or cats who are searching for their "forever home." At this time, we have nearly 50 pets who are hoping to be home before the first buds of Spring. Available pets are of all ages, sizes, and breeds; often including many purebred pooches as well as wonderful mixed breeds! If you would like to learn more about one of our available animals, our shelter staff can give you the "inside scoop" on each pet's personality and history. And of course, there is no substitute for meeting our animals in purr-son! Our featured pet today is Kim, a sweetnatured Collie/Hound mix who arrived at our shelter with her sister Courtney. Kim is about 8 months old, with a smooth ivory coat highlighted with tan markings and floppy Hound ears. This pretty young lady has a gentle temperament and gets along well with both staff and other dogs

at the shelter. She and her sister are working on mastering their "leash manners" and have been making terrific progress. They are super-friendly and eager to please. If you are seeking a family dog who is young enough to still have some puppy in them, Kim is the canine for you. If you have a little extra room in your home, why not consider adopting BOTH Kim and her sister and doubling the doggy kisses and wagging tails?

he Depot Theatre Gallery will be hosting an opening reception on Friday, Feb. 22, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. for North Country artist, Becky Pace. The Gallery will show her collection titled, “Water, Mountain, Sky” and will feature wine from a local winery, Amazing Grace Vineyard. The show will run through March 31. There's a great sale going on at the Elizabethtown Thrift Shop.

opefully we haven’t had our last snow of the season, but if we do get another storm (and March always seems to bring one) here’s a very important request that I’d like to pass on to you from the hard-working folks at the town shed. When you go to plow out your driveway, please do not leave a pile of snow in the road. Push it off to the side so that it’s completely off the roadway and will not cause a dangerous obstruction to motorists or to the town plowtrucks. The general lack of snow has crimped our style a bit when it comes to skiing and snowboarding, but to make up for it the Westport Youth Commission has invented LEGO Day. Bring your kids (and a snack to share) to the Town Hall on Sunday, February 24 from 1 to 4 p.m. and let ‘em loose on the LEGOs provided for free. See what marvelous constructions they can put together. Space ships, buildings, vehicles, robots, aircraft, submarines, superheroes— the possibilities are endless. There’s no competition and no limit to the fun. All Westport students grades K-12 are wel-
come. North Country artist Becky Pace will celebrate her show “Water, Mountain, Sky” in the Depot Theatre Gallery with an opening reception on Friday, Feb. 22 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Local winery Amazing Grace Vineyard will offer free wine tastings at the opening, along with glasses of wine and bottles for purchase. The show runs until March 31. Becky studied design at the Cleveland Institute of Art and currently makes her home in the village of Peru. Her work has been exhibited at area galleries and is in private collections throughout the North Country. Her light-infused, allegorical paintings capture the distilled beauty of remote North Country landscapes—winter mornings up in the high country, secluded marshes, and sunlit, windswept shorelines. Dramatic and colorful, her paintings are filled with alternating patterns of movement and stillness. Come meet her and enjoy a glass of wine—and, if you choose to invest wisely, go home with both some beautiful art and some fine white or red.

ndy Buchanan’s four part series on the history of American agriculture winds up next Tuesday, Feb. 26, with a talk on current day farming, including a look back at the farm crisis of the 1980’s and the rise of big-time agribusiness. Andy is a lecturer in history at UVM and one of Whallonsburg’s more prominent scholars. Although Andy’s talks are ending, there’s more to come with a group discussion with local farmers on March 5 concerning the future of organic farming, followed by a lecture on modern day selfsufficiency on March 12 and finally a talk on March 19 on what 19th century Adirondackers ate. The talks all start at 7:30 and the place is the Whallonsburg Grange. This Saturday night, Feb. 23, a band from Burlington takes the stage at the Grange. They’re called PossumHaw, they play folk and bluegrass and they’ve released three albums since 2005. The show starts at 7:30 p.m. and tickets are $10. By the way, possumhaw is a common name for a native deciduous holly also known as winterberry.

ur snow is going away fast, even though the weather is rather cold so it looks like spring will be here soon. That makes me realize that it will not be long and our fair weather friends will be thinking about returning fairly soon. It also makes those that make Maple syrup that it is time to get out those sap buckets. If you are interested in making your own syrup, I noted that Poko-O-McCready and the outdoor Ed Center are celebrated January as Maple Month. They offered some workshops to help educate those interested in this subject to learn more about its production. They are doing some great educational things up there, so watch for their informative newsletters around town. I learned this week that the Willsboro/Essex Rescue Squads have now combined their efforts into one unit to server both communities. They expressed a concern as now the drivers upon demand could come from either town, and they may not always be familiar with some of the house streets and numbers. They would find it most helpful if we would put our house numbers out on our mail boxes or near the road in some way, this would be most helpful especially for night time calls. They do a great job to serve us and time lost in finding our house could make a big difference for those in need. I was able to attend a nice meet and greet
gathering for Dan Stec, our new State Assemblyman this past Friday evening. This was held in the cafeteria of the Common Wealth building and there were county and local officials as well as several business persons in attendance. He seems eager to represent us in Albany and was open to hearing our concerns for his support in the days ahead. That is a great building for holding such events. This last week is the mid-winter break for our school children, hard to believe that the school year is at the half way point. It was a pleasure for me to be able to conduct the Sunday Service at the Essex Community church this last Sunday, this is such a beautiful church and they serve the community of Essex very well. The New Beginnings group will be gathering for a supper meal at Rick's Restaurant on Sunday, Feb. 24, at 5 p.m. This is a group of interested widows and widowers that enjoy each other's company and a meal together; so if interested just come and join us. Happy Birthday to: Alan Hutchins Feb. 21, Hunter Whalen Feb. 21, Alex Shephard Feb. 2/22, Jackie Wade Feb. 22, Lorena Hanna Feb. 23, John Sayward Feb. 23, Mae Mero Feb. 23, Sandy Delaney Feb. 25, Lauren Page, Feb.26, Sherman Randall Feb. 26, Lyle Mason Feb. 27, Rolland Mitchell Feb. 28, Cleo Lobdell Feb. 28.

The ravens around here are getting very vocal. Most of the year they make boastful triple caws to announce their dominance in their particular territory. More or less they’re saying to other ravens I’m the top bird around here and this is my turf. These days, however, the calls are a jumble of bubbling belches, abrupt barks and otherworldly guffaws. It’s mating season, you see, and any strange sound coming from the sky about now is probably just a raven seeking a mate. Ginny was delighted to be served a dog cookie at the town hall during a recent visit to get a dump ticket. Town Clerk Audrey Hoskins keeps a box of them in her desk, and Ginny knows exactly which drawer in the desk. Mrs. Hoskins only requires a hand shake to receive a cookie, but Ginny is happy to demonstrate all of her tricks, including roll over and play dead if it means an extra cookie. She rolls over very adeptly, but is usually too excited to play dead correctly. She’ll lie still, but can’t stop from wagging her tail. They must be good cookies.

Continued from page 1 Holderman also outlined the process to bring the dissolution plan to a permissive referendum if 25 percent of village residents signed a petition within 45 days of the village accepting the plan. "The vote is a vote to approve or not approve the plan that the trustees accept," Holderman said. "If the plan was voted down then, the process would be stopped." Holderman added that if the plan were voted down, his understanding was that there would be a four-year moratorium on another dissolution vote, which Maguire contested. "The four-year moratorium is only on the first vote (whether to move forward with the dissolution process)," Maguire said. "If the permissive referendum should fail, there is no moratorium. The
Rabies Continued from page 1 Director of Preventative Services Susan Allott said in 2011 there were only 40 animals submitted to Essex County for rabies testing and in 2012 there were 61 animals submitted for testing. “We had significantly more submissions in 2012 because there have been more human contact exposures,” Allott said. “I really
of the
way the law is written, it is non-specific as to what happens after. Conventional thinking is that you presented the best plan to the public and it was not accepted." Maguire said that if a referendum were to defeat the plan, the village would have options as well as the residents who are registered voters. "It grants the board the opportunity to amend the plan," Maguire said. "It grants the board the latitude to present a revised plan. You could face another petition. You could represent the same plan. It could be a vicious cycle." Maguire also said he was concerned that the state was being seen in a bad light in the process. "There is an opinion piece that says we are going out there to dissolve village by village," he said. "We are here to try to help you through the process." Dissolution Committee
member Linda Guimond addressed the board during the meeting, stating that she felt the village was not talking enough about the work that the group had done. "There is a plan that has been presented to you," Guimond said. "We worked hard for nine months to put this plan together." Holderman said that the village will use the plan as a base, as well as public input, to create a finalized plan. "I think that there is a perceived notion that we are going to change the plan that has been presented to us," Holderman said. "It is our job to present the best possible plan to the residents. We have the plan that has been presented to us, but we have not looked at it yet." Guimond also recommended that officials from the two towns affected by potential dissolution, Chesterfield and Ausable, be part of the process
over the next 180 days. "They are going to make their own plans," she said. "I would almost hope that the Village Board would want to work with the two towns. I would think that I would only make our community better to work as a whole and not as polar opposites." Holderman said that whether the two sides work together or not, there is no guarantee that either town will respect the wishes of the village once it is gone. "The village is a corporation. If the corporation makes an agreement and the corporation dissolves, there is no more entity," Holderman said. "You have a one-sided contract from that point out." Trustee Kathleen Klages talked about the economics of dissolution, saying she felt a large majority of the houses in the village were going to be negatively impacted by dissolution.
want to get the message out for how people can avoid or minimize their exposure to rabid animals.” Allott said the ECPH recommends these prevention actions: ·Be sure all your animals – pets and livestock – are up to date on rabies vaccinations; ·Feed pets indoors and don’t leave pets outside unattended;
·Don’t feed, touch or adopt wild or stray animals; ·Tightly cap garbage cans and avoid attracting wild animals to your yard with birdseed or other food; ECPH department states that if your pet has contact with saliva or brain tissue of a suspected rabid animal contact your veterinarian for medical care and contact ECPH at 873-3500 to determine what additional fol-
low-up may be needed. If you have been exposed to saliva or brain tissue of a suspected rabid animal: ·Wash all wounds thoroughly with soap and water; ·Seek medical attention immediately; ·Report animal bites or possible rabies exposures to ECPH at 873-3500. ECPH will submit wild animals and bats for rabies testing if they have had contact with humans or pets or have displayed unusual behavior.

Relocating Otis Lane Bridge Get serious ... please! not worth the investment L
T
he eight-year fight to replace the aged Otis bridge, carrying Otis Lane over the Boquet River just south of Elizabethtown, is finally nearing an end. The new span — which cost the county $250,000 — will be rated for loads of up to 40 tons, where the old 1914 Otis Bridge was only rated for three tons, making it impassable to emergency vehicles and log trucks. County leaders, to their credit, stepped to the plate and addressed this public safety issue. But did they need to spend taxpayer dollars to relocate the old rusted bridge to the Essex County Fairgrounds where it will be used as a footbridge? There are a lot of aged historic structures owned by the county — the old county jail is one example. Should they all be transported to the county fairground for the sake of posterity? With the price of iron near historic levels, wouldn’t the old bridge have significant salvage value? And, while the bridge was listed on the National Inventory for Historic Bridges, let’s be realistic — the span has little historic significance. The covered bridge in Jay has historical significance. The old Lake Champlain bridge that was blown to smithereens had historical significance. This rusted old tangle of iron does not. So why spend the money to move it to Westport so a few fairgoers can us it as a catchall for discarded fried dough and half eaten corn dogs? Then, to add insult to injury, the old bridge got stuck at the traffic light in Elizabethtown Feb. 7 en route to the county fairgrounds, holding up morning commuters for nearly 20 minutes. It seems making a 45-degree turn with a 40-foot bridge is no simple task — especially during rush hour. It got stuck again in the S-turns just past the Elizabethtown Library leaving town. Was this headache really warranted? The Essex County DPW did an outstanding job replacing the former bridge. The county was responsible for the old bridge, it had become a public safety issue, and county highway workers stepped in and replaced it. But the old bridge should have been cut up on site and sold for its salvage value. There is a reason the state of New York did not try and save the old Lake Champlain bridge or relocate it somewhere for the sake of prosperity. It had significant historic value to thousands of local residents. But saving it was cost prohibitive. So was the relocation of the Otis Bridge, albeit on a much smaller level. No matter what the cost of relocating it, however, we believe the money and time invested could have been better spent on a more worthwhile county project. There are other bridges that need immediate attention. Ford Bridge and Martin’s Bridge, both in Schroon, and Moriah Center Bridge in Moriah have all been red-flagged for replacement in 2013. Wouldn’t the money and time spent on relocating the Otis Bridge been better spent at those locations? These are very trying economic times. Spending the money to save and relocate an old rusty bridge for use at a fairground that may itself soon be on the chopping block was not a prudent financial decision. Our county supervisors need to spend more time prioritizing what they spend our tax dollars on and less time holding up morning commuters.

ast week we witnessed the annual drawing of the battle lines during the State of the Union Address presented by President Obama with rebuttals from Senators Rubio and Paul. Our political system continues its dysfunctional method of running the country. It seems in unison with the national media, once known for being the watchdogs of political shortcomings. Instead, the national media continues to be ineffective in its role to police ill-mannered, self-serving political figures. One has to wonder how much more of this behavior we can tolerate. Republican Sen. Rand Paul gave the Tea Party rebuttal 12 hours before the president delivered his speech. Paul’s speech was sarcastic and ended with a call for the president to be tried for treason and banished from the country. Comparing the president’s not-yet-given speech to one worthy of Iran President Ahmadinejad, Sen. Paul called the speech: “Full of empty promises and bald-faced lies we’ve come to expect from President Obama who tonight made a case for his own impeachment.” Obviously Sen. Paul is not a fan of Dale Carnegie’s book: “How to Win Friends and Influence People.” Sen. Paul’s prebuttal was preceeded earlier in the day when Speaker of the House Boehner made the comment; “I don’t think he (President Obama) has the guts to do it. He doesn’t have the courage to take on the liberal side of his own party – never has.” In fact, the speaker said, judging by the tone and tenor during the Inaugural Address: “I would expect tonight to be more partisan.” The president, for his part, didn’t leave his critics without cause to cry and lament. He laid out plans for debt reduction, tax code overhaul, enhanced job creation, minimum wage, climate control, immigration reform, education improvements, defense and foreign trade. His big bully-pulpit ended with examples of families affected by gun violence in the audience, as he challenged members of the Congress and Senate repeatedly with: “They deserve a vote.” The president called for cuts to spending on things like education, job training, Medicare and Social Security benefits to reduce the deficit. “Deficit reduction alone is not an economic plan,” Obama said. He also recycled a frequently used phrase from the past, assuring the nation none of this would cost the country a “single dime.” “Let's set party interests aside and work to pass a budget that replaces reckless cuts with smart savings and wise investments in our future. And let's
do it without the brinksmanship that stresses consumers and scares off investors. The greatest nation on earth cannot keep Dan Alexander conducting its Thoughts from business by driftBehind the Pressline ing from one manufactured crisis to the next,” the president said. The president knows that the divided Congress may not fall in line behind any of his priorities, specifically mentioning climate change, but said he'd move forward with or without their support. “If Congress won't act soon to protect future generations, I will,” Obama said. “I will direct my cabinet to come up with executive actions we can take now, and in the future, to reduce pollution, prepare our communities for the consequences of climate change and speed the transition to more sustainable sources of energy.” These and more comments were made to a sustained standing ovation from Democrats in the chamber while Republicans and Speaker Boehner sat silent. The president’s speech lasted long enough that by the time Sen. Rubio appeared for his rebuttal, I, like many others, had long fallen asleep. According to media reports the next morning the only thing they wanted to cover was his groping awkwardly for a quick drink of water. Rubio made it clear that while the president doesn’t believe we can create a path for prosperity by cutting spending, he and the Republicans do not believe we can tax our way to economic growth. Thus gridlock is safely preserved for yet another term as our political representatives do their best to pit citizen against citizen. Sadly, it seems no one in Washington is prepared to get down to business and find the common ground that requires both spending cuts and tax overhauls. Neither side seems ready to do anything more than grandstand and place blame on the other side, while we see costs and debts on the rise and the economy continue to struggle. It’s time we all contact our representatives on both sides of the aisle and say: “Get serious….please! For all our sakes!” Dan Alexander is president and CEO of Denton Publications.

Thanks for support
Disagrees with column
To the Valley News: On behalf of the Elizabethtown Social Center, I would like to thank both Bub's Pizza and Stewart's Shops for their regular support of our Teen Rec Program. When Cora Putnam Hale created the Social Center, she desired that it would offer “the greatest good for the greatest number,” expressly indicating that the youth of our town should not be overlooked. We are proud to continue a seventy-four-year tradition of providing a safe, structured recreational environment for the teens of our community. This is a tremendous asset to our small, rural town which is limited in options for healthy teen recreation. Stewart's Shops and Bub's Pizza generously contribute to the fulfillment of Mrs Hale's vision with donations of gift certificates. These gift certificates offer a fantastic way for us to give prizes and incentives in our Teen Rec programs throughout the year. They play an important role in retaining the interest and attendance of our youth so they are less likely to choose unhealthy alternatives. It is an honor to support local businesses that are so generous in their support of our community. Arin Burdo, Director Elizabethtown Social Center
To the Valley News: Citing no specific evidence Dan Alexander tells us that discrimination in the work place against women is no big problem. The big problem he says are government laws prohibiting unequal pay for equal work. These regulations, he says, are a drag on business enterprise, on self-sufficiency, on the development of our children's character and on much else. Hence the elegant title of his editorial: "America: Land of Mediocrity". Hence also his equally thoughtful suggestion that if you think you are underpaid find yourself another job. Assuming, I suppose he means but doesn't say, if these days you can find it. This wisdom is supported by what Mr. Alexander summarizes as his vast experience in the business world. Actually, to add a little reality to his experience, women's wages still lag behind those of men by about 20 percent. The figures differ from one to another industry or profession and from one to another region and state. Since these are median figures you know there are pockets of enterprise where women fare even worse. So the U.S. Bureau of Statistics tells us and so does the U.S. Census --no feminist mouthpieces these. But since Mr. Alexander probably distrusts government statistics, let me cite from a recent issue of the very conservative Forbes Magazine, voice of large business corporations: according to a 2012 study, Forbes reports: "Full-time, year-round women workers earn and average of $36,931 compared to men's $47,715 --or 76 cents to every dollar earned." You do have to wonder what put this particular bee in Mr. Alexander's bonnet. He complains that the government requires you to fill out forms, proving your business doesn't discriminate. Well how much time can that take? Some smart secretary can't do it in a couple of hours? Or one of the guys that do all the journalism? Or is that the rub? Dan Alexander believes profoundly in free enterprise unburdened by government regulations. That's his privilege. So is acquiring a small rural newspaper and using it to broadcast his personal views across the countryside. It’s not exactly what our forefathers meant by a free press. Nor is "find yourself another job" what the 14th Amendment means by "equal protection of the laws." But never mind. What some of us would like from the Valley News is fewer mediocre editorials and a little more varied opinion. Carl Resek, Westport

Shooting the messenger’ To the Valley News: It’s been my habit not to ignore Malcolm Martin, or his ilk, so I shall not ignore his Letter to the Editor from Dec. 22. Malcolm takes his usual approach of shooting the messenger since he won‘t, or can‘t, debate the message. He states my comments are false, but doesn’t mention which ones. He seems to think my concern regarding the budget, and the law, should be settled in the Supervisors office, but I prefer to talk with the entire Board about such things in a public meeting. That’s what the meetings are for. Secret talks don’t interest me, but transparency and open, honest government does and it‘s missing right now. Malcolm crossed a line for me when he states that I’m a “quitter “ who years ago quit the Elizabethtown Vol. Fire Dept. Malcolm, as does his ilk, is lying about this. I served 20 years as a vol. fireman, 14 of which as sec./treasurer. I retired at 20 years and am officially listed as such. It can be extraordinarily hard and sometimes dangerous work. The men and women who are willing to do this must be commended. The list of active and retired members is long, but I didn’t see Malcolm’s name on that list. Later I served as a Fire Commissioner for three years, which shares a long list of volunteers. I didn’t see Malcolm’s name on that list. I also served as a School Board member for five and a half years, in two stints. The list of volunteers for that duty was long, but I didn’t see Malcolm’s name on that list. I served six and a half years on the Town Board before resigning. The list is also long for the folks willing to step up and take the responsibility, but I didn’t see Malcolm’s name on that list either. That adds up to 35 years, Malcolm. How many years of volunteer work have you done? I can assure you, Malcolm, that I will not quit informing the public about the issues that concern us all, which include the miscues of the present Elizabethtown Town Board. My loyalty is to the Town, not past Supervisors or present Councilpersons and to profess otherwise is profoundly stupid. How odd that you accuse me of it, yet you blindly defend the current Supervisor, and her Team, regardless of the issue. Are you happy Malcolm, that your taxes are going up 5.41 percent, rather than the less then 3.5
percent that’s been represented? Having said that, I give thanks each and every day that you are on her team and not mine. Don’t give up Malcolm, for you truly help the cause. Ken Fenimore Elizabethtown P.S. The sod and topsoil for the new hole at the golf course that Malcolm refers to, actually is town property. It came from the town owned right of way for the new road past the Bartley/Gough property, which is the access to the new Otis Bridge. The new road is the tradeoff which allows the old road to be given to Supervisor Bartley, which enhances the value of her property.
Help with tournament To the Valley News: I was recently invited by the members of the AuSable Forks Fire Department to assist with securing ads for the annual program they produce for their Soft-Pitch Tournament, to be hosted July 19 to 21. As I am soliciting North Country businesses and community members, it has been brought to my attention of how many people are not aware that the Fire Department has produced an advertisement program for the past 22 years. The annual Labor Day program is another booklet that several community members did not know existed. One of the possible reasons for this could be that we are a very active community and several other annual events, such as the annual Jay Fire Department’s Fourth of July Celebration, the annual Upper Jay Ooze Ball and the annual AuSable Forks Fast-Pitch Tournament, also produce a booklet. It was truly an honor for me to be invited to assist the AuSable Forks Fire Department with the production of their annual program. Anyone interested in placing an ad may call me at: home, 647-5337; or via cell, 578-1333. There is also an Events Page on Facebook: AuSable Forks Fire Department’s Softball Booklet for 2013. Your support is much needed and greatly appreciated, not only for this booklet that I am working on but for the others mentioned. Proceeds generated from each are disbursed back to the community in some helpful capacity. Let’s make it fun, positive and play ball. Cookie Kurz AuSable Forks

CATS works on trail in Wadhams Beer tent at Essex County Fair WADHAMS — More than 40 volunteers hit the trail with Champlain Area Trails last Saturday to clear the new Field and Forest Trail connecting Wadhams to the Bobcat Trail. CATS plans for the trail to eventually reach Whallonsburg and then extend to Essex. “We had a beautiful sunny day, perfect for being outside with friends. People of all ages came from across the Adirondacks and beyond to show their support and lend a hand clearing the trail.” said Chris Maron, Executive Director of CATS. “This beautiful new trail is an important part of our plans to create a footpath between Westport and Essex.” Local resident and business owner Kevin Shaw brought his two young girls to be part of the trail crew. “I’m excited to have this great trail right in town- it’s a perfect location right by the Boquet River with lots of park- Four-year old Otis Van Deusen carries a branch during the CATS trail ing and easy access,” Shaw project. said. “It will be a fun ski in the winter and a footpath through the hemlock forest. Even in the summer we’ll come out to walk the little ones dragged brush off the trail and pulled loose branches out of the way. through the woods and fields.” The new Field and Forest Trail will open Landowner Matt Foley, who allows the trail to cross his property, had cleared fallen soon.

will be addressed again for 2014 By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — While they would not be looking to bring it in until 2014, the Essex County Agricultural Society is again looking at bringing alcohol sales back to the annual fair. Westport Supervisor and Fairgrounds Committee Chairman Dan Connell said during the Feb. 13 DPW Committee meeting that the society would be putting a plan together that would look at allowing alcohol sales at the 2014 Essex County Fair. He said that the proposal would not be for this year because of the expenses involved. “Last year, we had went out and got a license and a beer tent and we can't afford to look at the beer tent unless we know well in advance that we are going to be able to do this and not have paid for things that we cannot get a refund for,” Connell said. “We are not asking for a resolution in 2013, but we are probably going to have to come back in 2014 if this fair is going to survive.” Connell said that after attending the recent New York State Association of Fairs annual meeting in Rochester, he felt that the county’s approach to alcohol sales at the fair was, “totally out of step with where everyone else in New York state is going.” “Most fairs are selling alcohol in a controlled environment and it is a huge part of their revenue,” Connell said. “We have a neighboring fair (he later said Franklin County) that is bringing in Vince Gill. I went
to one of their people and said that there was no way they made enough money to afford bringing him in, and they said they will make $6,000 on the one night that Vince Gill is there in beer sales alone. The last time they had a really big show there, they did $10,000 in sales in a three hour period.” Connell admitted that the factors in favor of Franklin County were the stage are being much bigger than the one in Westport and the way Franklin County markets to the Canadian audience, but that alcohol sales could still be a major revenue source for the fair. “Gov. Cuomo has talked about the importance of promoting local breweries and wineries at the fair,” Connell said. “I am not sure the fair is going to survive if we do not make some changes. I hate to say it, but alcohol draws people.” In 2012, the county Board of Supervisors voted to not allow alcohol sales on the grounds during fair week after being presented with a plan by Connell. Many voting against the sales said they were concerned there would be increased cases of violence and other issues that were not fit for a family-friendly event.

Essex County may have found favor in sales tax hike fight keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — During a recent lobbying day in Albany, Randy Douglas thinks that the fight to raise Essex County’s sales tax to 4 percent may be starting to turn in their favor. Douglas, the County Board Chairman from Jay, reported during the Feb. 13 Finance Committee meeting that he and Vice Chairman Bill Ferebee of Keene got the chance to speak to Gov. Andrew Cuomo about allowing counties to impose home rule to increase the sales tax. The discussions were held during a lobbying day by the New York State Association of Counties annual conference. “We had a game plan to hit him with the home rule stuff and when we hit him with
six, eight counties right in a row it opened his eyes to what this really means to the smaller counties like ours,” Douglas said. “When he got to Bill and I he said, ‘I've heard it.’” The county currently sits at a 3.75 percent sales tax, which lawmakers want to increase to 4. Despite efforts in recent years to get the change, the state Legislature has never granted approval. Douglas said that he also had the chance to speak with state Sen. Betty Little about the issue, and that he would be looking for her help as well as the help of Assemblymen Dan Stec.
Bond for bridge work As the Essex County Department of Public Works continues to deal with the aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene, Commissioner
Model UN Continued from page 1 “There were as many people there from other countries as there were Americans,” said sophomore Sage Allott, who also went to her first conference. “We went up and introduced ourself to as many people as possible. I spent time
Anthony LaVigne told members of the DPW Committee Feb. 13 that more funding was needed to fix bridges. The committee moved a resolution to bond for up to $4,345,000 for bridge construction. LaVigne said that the funding would help the county catch up on its fiveyear plan, which was turned on its side after recent natural disasters. “The funding is for an additional seven bridges,” LaVigne said. “We try to anticipate how much the project is going to cost through all phases. This is really a rough estimate of what I am going to need but I do know that these bridges have to be addressed soon.” LaVigne said that with the department falling behind schedule, they have received three red flags on bridges that they were not
with some Costa Rican kids, and I still talk to them.” “We were both really nervous because we were new and in our own little world away from the rest of our classmates,” said Kyra Schaefer, who was attending her first conference as a sophomore and partnered with Allott. “We eventually figured it all out and had a lot of fun.” Sophomore Wesley Whalen attended his second Harvard UN this year. “There were a lot more people from different areas of the world this year,” Whalen said. “We did a lot more public speaking and talking about the topics we had prepared for.” “I knew what to expect, and I was not overwhelmed — it was not as scary,” said sophomore Will Tompkins, who also attended his second conference. “It was interesting to hear the perspectives of the different countries.” The student delegation also included junior Terry Thomas and junior Corinne White, who was the head delegate for her school. “It’s cool to see how everyone has changed by the end, and they were all very confident,” White said. “We have been able to become a lot more involved in the process and work
anticipating. He added that funding through bonding allowed the county to use its CHIPs funding for roadway repairs. “CHIPs funding has stayed at the same level while costs continue to go up,” he said. Currently, the county is working on the replacement of the Otis Lane Bridge. “The new bridge steel is being installed and the work was accomplished with both county and contracted personnel,” he said. LaVigne also said that the county will be working on the Adirondack Loj Road Bridge in the spring. “A temporary bridge will be installed sometime in the spring with the construction on a replacement bridge starting soon thereafter.” For more on Essex County Board of Supervisors, visit valleynewsadk.com

UPPER JAY — Celtic rock band Callanach will perform at the Upper Jay Art Center on Saturday, Feb. 23. The band’s name is a Gaelic word meaning “loud,” but Ryan Rovito said that doesn’t translate into abrasive. “I like music that can change my mood,” Rovito said. “This will be a very high energy show.” The Rochester quintet will utilize drums, bass, fiddle, banjo and guitars to produce that energy, and Rovito said dancing is a common by product of their songs. The band mostly plays originals, but some listeners might recognize the fiddle part for the band’s song “Get Jiggy,” as part of the theme for the movie “Last of the Mohicans.” Callanach has played throughout New York State, but for Rovito playing in the Adirondacks is like a homecoming. Rovito grew up in Gloversville in the southern Adirondacks and has family scattered throughout the park.
Presently, the band has one E.P. and one full length album, “Walk On Up,” and is hoping to record a new album this spring. They are also beginning to get noticed on a larger scale, too. Their song "Irish Pubs" was recently nominated for "Best Celtic Rock Song in 2012" by the Celtic Radio Music Awards. It is currently in the top three running, and listener votes will determine the outcome.
“Everyone who attends this Saturday should expect dancing,” Rovito said. “Making that happen is always our goal.” The show will begin at 8 p.m. and there is a $10 suggested donation to attend. For more information on Callanach, visit www.callanach.com The Upper Jay Art Center is located at the corner of Springfield Rd. and Rt. 9N in Upper Jay.

Ford, Estes win high jump events to make state meet Valley Leaders: By Keith Lobdell
Regular season
keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — AuSable Valley indoor track and field athletes Paul Ford and Ashlee Estes had been the best at clearing the high jump bar throughout the 2012-13 Section VII indoor track season. On Feb. 16, they solidified their foothold on the event by both winning the NYSPHSAA state qualifier meet at the Plattsburgh State Fieldhouse. Estes, a junior, opened the day for the Patriots by capturing the girls high jump event and a trip to the state meet in Cornell with a jump of 4’6”. Estes was the only competitor to clear the mark and went for a season best with the bar raised to 4’8”, but was unable to make the height on three attempts. “I have done 4’7” a lot this year, and I wanted to set a personal best,” Estes said. This is Estes’ first time qualifying for the state tournament after just missing a spot on last year ’s team. “I was so close last year and didn’t get in. This was my goal to make it this year,” Estes said. “I am going to jump a lot over the nest two weeks and work on my execution because I expect to see a lot of good jumpers down there.” Ford, a senior who qualified for states last year in the high jump and the 55m hurdles, had an easier path in winning the state qualifying event than he did the previous week at the sectional championships when he won in a jump-off. Ford, who has cleared 6’0” throughout the

There is going to be a lot of jumping over the next two weeks.” Ford said that he was proud to be going back to the state meet. “Seeing the guys that jump down there, it is cool to watch and it is a nice feeling to be down there and be part of that group,” Ford

said. “I know now that I do not need to feel intimidated, and that I just need to focus on my own jumps because those are the ones that matter to me.” The high jump will be the final field event for both the boys and girls at the NYSPHSAA state championship meet Saturday, March 2. The events will be held at Barton Hall on the campus of Cornell University.
State Championship qualifiers Including Paul Ford and Ashlee Estes, a total of six local athletes will be making their way to NYSPHSAA championship events next weekend, including: •Hank McCormick and Gavin Friedrich of AuSable Valley both qualified for the state boyʼs swimming championships. The event will be held at Webster-Schroeder High School in Rochester, with preliminary rounds starting Friday, March 1, at noon and continuing at the same time Saturday, March 2. •Michael McDonald of AuSable Valley and Gabi Yeager of Willsboro will compete in the state bowling championships, which will be held at Strike nʼ Spare Lanes in Syracuse.

Celebrating the tradition of celebration A grand Ice Palace has always served as a centerpiece of Saranac Lake's Annual Winter Carnival, which was celebrated for the 115th year in 2013.
O
n Saturday, Feb. 23, residents of Saranac Lake will again be joined by visitors from across the region to help carry on a spirit of celebration that has kept a festive atmosphere alive in the community for several weeks. The event will be the Third Annual Musicians Unite for North County Food Pantries, and it will be hosted at the Adirondack Carousel on the corner of Depot St. and Bloomingdale Avenue beginning at 10:45 a.m. The all-day, family-friendly, free concert will include over a dozen acts ranging from folk to blues to rock, and even a bagpiper! It’s certain to be a good time, and it’s certainly for a good cause, as proceeds from the concert will benefit food pantries in Saranac Lake, Vermontville, Brighton, and Duane. Attendees may bring donations of cash and/or non-perishable foods. Actually, Saturday’s event will be another in a long line of parties that Saranac Lake first began hosting over a century ago. The recent 115th Annual Winter Carnival was just the latest in a long and proud heritage of celebrations that first began with efforts to help tuberculosis patients, aka ‘lungers’ deal with being cooped up indoors for long periods of time. The aliment was also known as the winter blues, or cabin fever. There is no doubt that Saranac Lakers enjoy a good celebration, and they certainly know how to throw a party. The strange hereditary trait may have been inherited from a time when the

Or it may simply have come from a need to keep moving to stay warm in a mountain town that receives regular notoriety for being ranked as the coldest location in the nation. In recent years, the peaceful community has been somewhat overshadowed by their neighbors down the line in Lake Placid, in terms of an overall capacity to consistently party hardy. Admittedly, weekend visitors tend to lend a hand in enhancing Lake Placid’s reputation as a party town. As everyone knows, it’s always easy to let your hair down, when you’re from out of town. Back in the 1930’s and ‘40’s when Saranac Lake’s population
included several thousand temporary residents ‘taking the cure’, there were over 25 bar rooms in operation, and there were likely many others that served drinks under the table. During the Prohibition era, there were many adventurers who traveled north to Canada for a ‘ fishing’ expedition’. Although they often neglected to bring along rods, reels, tackle, or creels, the spacious trunk of their Packard was usually filled to capacity on the return trip. Conveniently, the village was located along a route popular with bootleggers, who regularly spirited spirits from Montreal to New York, in those early days. Following the repeal of prohibition in 1932, the bar trade returned to Saranac Lake in a big way. At the time, there was little else to offer TB’ers in terms of entertainment, and most patients were required to spend their time in bed, or lounging on a cure porch. Radio was limited and television was not yet available. As a result, TB patients, also known as ‘consumptives,’ often utilized the consumption of alcohol to satisfy their entertainment needs. With a long held tradition of sharing both their celebrations and compassion with neighbors and visitors alike, it’s no wonder Saranac Lake has been ranked among The 100 Best Small Towns in America, no. 1 in New York, and no. 11 in the USA. And for those brave souls who dare to venture off for a late night, bar-hopping expedition through the town, it’s easy to understand why National Geographic Adventure Magazine ranked Saranac Lake among the 100 Best Adventure Towns in America.

United Way announces it met 95 percent of the 2013 campaign goal By Shaun Kittle
shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH —The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. raised most of its campaign goal for 2012. Even though they fell short—the campaign brought in $736,250, that’s $38,750 less than the goal of $775,000—United Way volunteers said that isn't anything to be ashamed of. “For us, it isn’t just about measuring the dollars and cents, it’s about measuring the level of impact we’re able to make throughout the region,” said John Bernardi, Executive Director of United Way of the Adirondack Region. “We do anticipate that we will be able to substantially meet the health and human service needs at a similar level to past years, and for that we’re very proud,” Those service needs include 41 health and human-service organizations in Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties, whose agencies provide help to about 80,000 people throughout the region each year. “I always prayed that we would be able to meet the needs of the North Country and at 95 percent, that’s what we got,” said Gayle Alexander, the 2013 Campaign Chair. Dan Alexander, the 2009 Campaign Chair, said several factors, such as a sluggish economy and 2012’s looming fiscal cliff, might have con-
tributed to the United Way falling short of its goal, but that those things were just evidence of a greater good amongst North Country citizens. “This perhaps may compare to an overwhelmingly greater amount of generosity from people this year than in past years,” Mr. Alexander said. “The amount that was raised in this economy is an overwhelming success.” The United Way has been collecting donations and distributing 100 percent of them to various local agencies and charities since 1949. Since so many organizations need help, there is an extensive process to allocating the funds. Some donations are designated by donors to go directly toward specific agencies but other funds, like the community impact fund, are available to partner agencies on a competitive basis. A volunteer board of community members reviews applications for funding and makes a recommendations to the United Way Board of Directors, who makes the final decisions. “In many respects, that’s what makes the United Way so unique,” Bernardi said. “There are so many levels of accountability and impact for the community, and every dollar is used for its intended purpose.” Bernardi said that another unique benefit of donating to the United Way is that donors can contribute via payroll deductions. Many smaller agencies and charities don’t have the resources to offer that service.
The benefit, Bernardi said, is that it might be easier for someone to give $10 a week than to give $500 in one lump sum. Of all the services the United Way helps support, Bernardi said mental health is one that has needed assistance most in recent years. Dale Anne Wolter, who co-leads the Champlain Valley Chapter of the Compassionate Friends with her friend, Sophie Mitsglou, echoed the need for more funding for mental health services. The group helps family members who have

Burke said many of the learners who benefit from their programs were unsuccessful in a traditional classroom setting, but by working

Both Wolter and Mitsglou have lost a child in a car accident, and they helped each other go through the grieving process. They have been involved with Compassionate Friends for about 15 years, and Woltner began volunteering for the United Way about 3 years ago. one-on-one with a trained volunteer tutor, they improve not only their education but their self-esteem as well. The tournaments will begin at 12:30 p.m. with registration and the first of three games will begin at 1 p.m. Prizes will go to the top three winners. Burke said prizes will vary and include gift certificates to local businesses in Saranac Lake and Port Henry. Registration cost is $10 per person- refreshments included. For more information about the tournament or to register contact the main Literacy Volunteers office in Port Henry at 5463008 or the Saranac Lake office at 891-5567.
