Local man battles Brothers Marvin to benefit from golf tourney tumor, triathlon By Matt Bosley

ELIZABETHTOWN — Two teenage brothers faced with a life-threatening heart condition are inviting golfers from around the North Country to join them once again for a day out on the greens. The second annual Brock and Connor Marvin Golf Tournament will be held at The Westport Country Club Friday Aug. 21, a fundraiser to support the two boys, who anticipate exorbitant out-of-pocket medical expenses. After he suffered a heart attack in April 2008, doctors discovered 15-year-old Brock Marvin had dilated cardiomyopathy, a disease that causes the heart to grow three times its normal size and pump blood at a rate significantly lower than the average person. Since then, Brock’s father, Walter “Smitty” Marvin III, mother Darlene Mitchell and stepmother, Margot Roemischer, have undertaken a continued effort to seek effective treatment for him, and raise funds to pay for it. Last year ’s tournament, held at the Lake Placid Club, drew over 140 golfers and raised more than $12,000 for a medical trust fund set up to do just that. This year ’s tournament has some additional goals, however. Last fall, the Marvins decided to have 13year-old Connor tested for the disease, too, since it is often the result of a genetic defect. In March, doctors confirmed the test as positive.
See MARVIN, page 15 LAKE PLACID — Joel Harwood just wants to have fun; Ironman style. Harwood, 41, of Elizabethtown, was one of more than 2,200 athletes from across the globe competing in the ninth annual Ford Ironman Lake Placid triathlon July 26, the grueling race where each participant must complete a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bicycle ride and a 26.2-mile marathon. “I have always had an interest in the Ironman. I saw the Ironman a couple of years ago, and just loved it. I wanted to compete.” But Harwood had other reasons for going after his goals. In 2007, he won a monthslong battle with a brain tumor. “When I had the tumor, it and some friends pushed me to do it,” he said prior to the race. “I'm very happy I'm able to be in the race. On Sunday I'm going to go out there and have fun.” After training for nine months, Harwood felt ready. As dawn broke that morning, the streets of Lake Placid were nearly empty. Traffic to much of Lake Placid was closed from 5 a.m. until the last racer able to qualify crossed the finish line at midnight.

Brock, Smitty, and Connor Marvin, enjoy a walk down the 18th fairway on the Old Course at St. Andrews Links in Fife, Scotland. The three visited the site during a trip to the 2009 British Open that was paid for by the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Brock and Connor, who have both been diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy, will be the beneficiaries of a golf tournament scheduled for Aug. 21 at the Westport Country Club.
Chesterfield to open new visitors’ center By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com
The historic Estes House, located next to AuSable Chasm, has been turned over to the town of Chesterfield for use as a visitors’ interpretive center. The building will house exhibits assembled by the North Country Underground Railroad Historical Association. It is slated to open in June 2010.
AUSABLE CHASM — Thanks to three-way partnership between a business, town, and nonprofit organization, a historic building near AuSable Chasm is taking on new life. The Estes House, a 19th century sandstone home overlooking Rainbow Falls, was recently donated by the AuSable Chasm Corporation for use as the Town of Chesterfield’s new Visitors’ Interpretive Center. The exchange was celebrated July 27 with a ceremonial key passing. “It’s just a good thing for the community,” said AuSable Chasm Corp. Executive Director Tim Bressette, noting how the building has sat unused for over a decade. The building was originally built as the home of Herbert Estes, a Civil War veteran and superintendent of the AuSable Horse Nail Company in the late 1800s. Later, it served as the residence for Chasm management. As part of the agreement, the town will own the building and be responsible for renovating and maintaining it. In exchange, donation of the building acts as matching funds for

Westport grads reflect on experiences By Matt Bosley
Farmers’ Market
matt@denpubs.com WESTPORT — The 16 graduates of Westport Central School’s Class of 2009 are leaving well prepared for the next steps in their lives, and with an appreciation for the community that has molded them. At their graduation ceremony June 27, class salutatorian Sean Davis thanked school faculty and staff for providing a top notch education. “This combination of support and academics gives the Westport Community a certain feel,” said Davis. “I’ve come to realize over the years that the ‘x-factor ’ for that feeling is simply great people. From the kindergartners to the old timers, the people around here are second to none in my book, and it’s been an honor for me to be able to spend the last few years of my life around such amazing people.” Davis, who transferred to the school in sixth grade, fondly recalled his experiences building relationships with his fellow classmates through participation in sports, drama productions, and other extracurricular activities. “People familiar with this group will tell you that we have some real characters here, and I can certainly confirm that,” he said. “We have never been taken with trying to be like everybody else.” “Now we’re all about to leave the cozy confines of Westport Central, looking to build upon our current accomplishments,” Davis added. “Having seen the talents of each and every member of our class I have no doubt that we will all find some success in our future endeavors.” Class valedictorian Zachary Sherman recalled how, since first coming to Westport as a kindergartner, he had anxiously awaited graduation. “Over the last few weeks, I realized this is it, and I wasn’t as excited as I thought I would be. I began thinking about all the great times I’ve had with my classmates and with other former and current students.”

There are seven of us that have remained here since kindergarten and I’m sure they feel the same way, maybe not right now, but soon.” Sherman, too, credited the school with preparing students well for the road ahead, but emphasized how much his fellow classmates would be missed. “Congratulations to all of you for sticking through 13 years of learning, and I wish each of you the best of luck with your young, brilliant future.” said Sherman. “I know we’ve been groomed for success.”

Westport Regatta sets sail Aug. 1 WESTPORT — The 12th annual Westport Challenge Sail Regatta is set to set sail on Lake Champlain, Saturday, Aug. 1. The race has become a perennial favorite in Westport, where boats of all shapes and sizes make their summer home on the lake. “It's hard to believe that just 12 years ago, only seven boats participated in this race, and today we may have more than 20,” remarked race organizer Dee Carroll. “My favorite part of the race is seeing all the sails filling the bay.” More than 20 boats in three divisions including Class-A, Class-B, J-24 Class, and Campers, will sail towards Barber's Point, then over to Scotch Bonnet on the Vermont shore and then back to the Westport Marina. “There's something very pure in harnessing the wind, then throw in a race, fun and competition and it makes for a great social event,” added Peter Brooks of Brooks-Reineman Group of Merrill Lynch, who has sponsored the race for the last five years. “Westport is a great summer community and this is another event that helps put it on the map as another place to be in the summer and adds another layer of beauty to an already

ats off to the Willsboro & Essex Catholic Churches. They have planned and carried out some special events each month in the year of 2009 to help celebrate their 100-year heritage. They recently held their morning mass down at Noblewood Park overlooking Lake Champlain. Reports are that it was a beautiful service, and many stayed for a picnic after the service. They had the most representation in our Quad Parade in early June; very impressive. They will be having their Parish Bazaar this weekend. This is a fun and rewarding event held at the Essex St. John’s Church. Their big Anniversary Mass will be held on Aug. 23. They represent a great Christian presence in our community. Did you notice the new sign at the Willsboro Fire Hall? The Old Time Folk Craft Fair went off without a hitch and there was a lot of activities in and around the community all day Saturday. A very lucky child has a great new playhouse in Tony Stoker ’s backyard. Congratulations to Rick’s Place as they celebrate their 5 year anniversary of being in business. A big thank you to a wonderful program put on recently for the senior citizens by the Nutrition site and the Office of the Aging. Thanks to Krissy Leerkes and Dennis Everleth for putting the event together and they said that around 70 seniors took advantage of the opportunity to gather infor-
mation that could be of assistance to them and also enjoy a nice lunch. Our community does have a service of loaning out some hospital-type equipment at no cost. This equipment has been moved once again to a new location and if anyone is interested in finding out if a needed item is available, they need to call Janice Allen to make arrangements. Our records of past loans is not in good order, so I am asking if you do have some of our equipment still in use, could you let Janice know so the records can be updated, call 963-8912. So please do not try to return items any longer at the old trailer side in back of the old school. The Library’s Annual Used Book Sale will be on Friday, Aug. 7, with the preview sale between 5 and 8 p.m. Then the next day, Saturday Aug. 8, is the general sale from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. this is your chance to get you reading supply at low prices. Also check out their art exhibits presently on display in the main lobby.

N
ext weekend is the Westport Heritage Festival, which promises to be more exciting than ever in this Quadricentennial year of Samuel de Champlain's epic voyage. The festival itself takes place in three main venues, the Heritage House, Ballard Park, and the Marina, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 8. I'll give a summary in a moment. More information may be found at the Chamber of Commerce Web site, westportnycom. First, though, you've got several outstanding choices for Friday night, Aug. 7. If you went to Westport Central, come to the first ever WCS alumni picnic at Lee Park, which starts at 5 p.m. It's a potluck affair, so bring a dish and picnic supplies (chairs, blankets, etc.) and share some memories with your old friends. At 6 o'clock the Federated Church presents "Eat, Drink, and Be Married," a lasagna dinner with an interactive murder mystery. The delicious drama is set in a Las Vegas chapel, where Blackjack White meets death as he bursts into the wedding of his eloping daughter, Virgen White. Can you figure out whodunnit? Call Ernie or Alta LaPine at 962-4465 for info or tickets. Finally, the Depot Theatre's third show, "Heroes," opens at 8 o'clock the same evening and runs until Aug. 16. Directed by Chris Jones, who also plays the role of Gustave, it’s the hilarious story of three WWI vets who hatch a plan to "escape" from their retirement home. Call the Depot at 962-4449. If you eat lightly and time it out to the split second, you might be able to make it to all three events. But you'd better get a good night's sleep, because you won't want to miss a thing the next day. At 10 a.m. things get rolling with the tra-
ditional Foot Race from Camp Dudley to Ballard Park. But it's really all about boats. The Antique Boat Show goes all day at the Marina and culminates in the Boat Parade at 4 p.m. You can take a tour on the canal schooner the Lois McClure, enjoy a longboat ride from the old Inn dock, and go see the 1776 gunboat Philadelphia, which will be docked at the Yacht Club. All afternoon there will be fun games in Ballard Park, craft vendors and displays, mouthwatering michigans sold by your volunteer firefighters, ice cream sold by the 4-H Clubs, and drinks sold by the Chamber. At 6 o'clock the winner of the raffle for the beautiful Westport Chair (with a stained glass insert by Kip Trienens of Westport Trading Company) will be drawn, so make sure you get your ticket before then. The day ends with fireworks at 9:30. Have a great festival!
AVHFH hosting golf tourney Aug. 3 WESTPORT — The AuSable Valley Habitat for Humanity is holding a Golf Outing Monday, Aug. 3, at the Westport Country Club. The event will be a scramble with a shotgun start at 12 p.m. Prizes will be awarded. After the event there will be a BBQ at the clubhouse. All are invited to attend and participate. Foursomes, can participate for $100 per person. Singles are also welcome. For more information, call Bill Serjak at 576-2225. HFH is building a new house in Whallonsburg and the Golf Outing is the major fundraiser. The funds raised will be used for the house.

irst let me tell you that I have carefully “calibrated” the following 372 words at a 12.345 offensive level. I always calibrate my articles to equally offend people. Essex Days are here and starting up on Aug. 1. On tap are 50-plus vendors and sidewalk action. The Lois McClure, the replica canal boat, arrives and will offer free tours during the day and an ecumenical service on deck with sea based hymns at 5:30 p.m. Come back on the 2nd and watch it depart with banners and flags flying. Something new is also scheduled with the Essex Town Historian hosting a “Talkin’ Room” that features local farmers talking about their farm life in the 20th century. Scheduled farm folk are Charlie Martin, Norma Goff, Ray Wrisley, Martha Cross, Don Shambo, and Vesta Springs. The “talking” begins at 11 so come and listen, even participate. “Sunshine Boys,” that Neil Simon chestnut, is next up to bat for the ETC group. I’ve always liked Neil Simon plays because you can see the lines coming and the answers arriving five minutes before they start. They’re like one of my little leaguers
telling me that they like to see a very slow fastball to hit. Have you seen the refurbished Grange Hall? If not, a good way to do so is when the BRTF’ers put on “Pippin,” their play next week featuring a creative bunch of six- to 12-year-olds. Oh, I forgot to tell you that the “Talkin’ Room” is going to take place in the Essex Town Hall, while the Lois McClure will be at the Essex Marina dock. Strange things found in the P-Burg Paper: “Hydrant training set in Dannemora.” Now they don’t say what the Dannemora hydrants are going to be trained to do, but I anticipate that close order drill is not going to be included. After the training, people in Dannemora will have cloudy water. No reason giving, but I wonder if it will be because the hydrants will sweat a lot during their arduous training. Will there be a graduation ceremony? Also noticed in the same issue that someone is advertising factory delivery of trusses to work sites. I thought that people had operations instead of wearing trusses. Or could those black belts that people in Sam’s wear be the delivered trusses?

Summertime means children experience learning loss
A
ccording to the National Center for Summer Learning (NCSL), children experience learning losses when not engaged in educational activities for extended periods of time. Commonly referred to as summer slide, this overall decline in learning leaves many parents wondering how they can keep their children's minds actively engaged outside of the classroom. Get them involved in a summer arts program. There are also a lot of fun and educational activities at your local library. Another way to keep your children's minds active this summer is to be sure they read Kidsville News! Encourage them to work the puzzles, read the educational articles and draw a picture and send it to Truman! Also, be sure to click on the Parent/teacher resource link on our website at www.kidsvillenews.com/northernny, download the worksheets that correspond to Kidsville News content and work with your children to complete them. There are lots of interesting articles that you and your children can share. The August edition will be distributed at the beginning of August. Pick one up at the library or any of the business listed in our ad in your local Denton Publication. Kidsville News is the free, fun and educational monthly newspaper for the children, parents, and teachers of the North Country, serving grades K-5. If your child is not receiving Kidsville News please contact your school or our offices at 873-6368 x207.
WESTPORT — The 10th annual Westport Heritage Festival will take place Saturday, Aug. 8, and will celebrate 400 years of boating on Lake Champlain. The festival, which benefits the Westport Heritage House, begins at 10 a.m. with a fun race from Camp Dudley to Ballard Park and concludes with a fireworks display, beginning at 9:30 p.m. In between, there’s plenty of activity for the entire family. “This is the single fundraiser for the Heritage House and it’s a great event that brings together the entire community,” remarked Nancy Decker, the festival’s chairwoman. “Each year there’s a lot to see and do, but this year I’m particularly excited because of many of the new activities and events.” One of the new events added to the festival is the bike decorating contest. Youngsters are encouraged to bring their bike decorated in one of three categories: funniest, most patriotic and “back to the future,” to be judged at the Ballard Park pavilion, beginning at 4:30 p.m. The Westport Quadricentennial Committee is also looking for items to place in its time capsule that will be ‘buried’ during the festival.
“We would like to have items that represent our town,” stated Decker. “We’re still trying to find an appropriate place to ‘bury’ the capsule, but this is a way to leave Westport’s historical footprint behind for the future.” Other events highlighting the festival include the Lake Champlain antique and classic boat show with a parade of boats and the Lois McClure at the marina, the Philadelphia II at the Yacht Club dock, the Plein Air silent auction and the themed basket silent auction. In addition there will be a wide array of music performed at the Ballard Pavilion. The line-up features the Dudley Rhythm Ramblers from 1:30-2:30 p.m., James Mayo with the Dudley Choir from 2:303:30 p.m., and Atlantic Crossing from 7-9 p.m. There will also be music at the Yacht Club dock, from 2-4 p.m., with Chris Layer and Pete Sutherland. Access to the festival is free with tokens being sold near the beverage tent for the food. Raffle tickets and pins can also be purchased and all proceeds benefit the Westport Heritage House.

The connotation of the word “accident” is that it was out of anyone’s control or unpreventible. Are these “accidents” really unpreventible? Is there no way to avoid them? Certainly accidents are unintentional; no one tries to hit another car on purpose. No driver intentionally drives off the road into a tree. But when you analyze these crashes, in almost every case, someone violated a traffic law. Did they just happen or were there things that could have been done to prevent them from happening? Did the vehicle that hit another vehicle cross the center line because one driver was adjusting the radio and took his eyes and mind off his driving for a few seconds? Was the driver that went off the road while rounding that curve going too fast? Did the driver that lost control on a snowy road not realize that he/she was going too fast for the slippery road conditions? Maybe the word “accident” could be used to describe an otherwise vigilant driver that was unable to avoid a tree that suddenly fell across the road. This could be considered out of anyone’s control, but consider the case of St. Louis Cardinal pitcher Josh Hancock, who was tragically killed in 2007 when his rented SUV slammed into the back of a tow truck that was stopped on the highway, lights flashing, at the scene of a previous crash. As described in the book “Traffic” by Tom Vanderbuilt, Hancock (who had just days before crashed his own SUV) had a BAC nearly twice the legal limit, was speeding, was not wearing a seat belt, and was on a cell phone at the time of the crash. Can this possibly be called an “accident”? Describing our involvement in “accidents” takes away,
or at least minimizes, our own responsibility. It seems to provide a protective cover for our poor driving behaviors. It suggests that the 40,000 or so fatalities every year in the United States just happen, and there is nothing we can do to prevent it. How wrong. But it won’t really change until we as drivers realize that this complex task actually requires skill, intelligent decisions, and full attention both mentally and physically to the control of the vehicle you are operating. So, change your thinking from accidents being something that just happens to crashes or collisions, and the fact that they actually are predictable and preventable.

ADIRONDACK Curious portrayals of men today CRYPTOGRAM A t the risk of dating myself, I grew up watching television shows like Father Knows Best, the Walton’s, Leave it to Beaver, the Andy Griffin Show, Happy Days, the Beverly Hillbilly’s, Green Acres and the Brady Bunch. In most of these shows, father was portrayed as wise, unselfish, courageous, rational and largely unflappable. Granted, Oliver Douglas, the lead character from Green Acres was sometimes portrayed as a self important gas bag and Jed Clammpet the lead male, character from the Beverly Hillbillies was sometimes guilty of an utterly implausible naiveté. Mike Brady, the father from the Brady Bunch not only always knew exactly what to do and say to his wife and children; he delivered his always enlightened words with the soothing and modulated cadence of an empathetic psychotherapist. Mr. Brady’s knowledge was so broad that once, when the family visited the Grand Canyon, he was able to tell the children about the rich traditions of the Hopi Indians of the area in a way that would have put a tour guide to shame. Contrast these portrayals of men as wise and rational with the male characters of King of Queens, Everybody Loves Raymond or Home Improvement, to mention just a few. Tim, the lead character from Home Improvement is largely a self indulgent buffoon. He has little to offer his wife or children in the way of family leadership. In fact, Tim is often rescued by his wife and children. Tim is helplessly bereft most of the time while he attempts to express himself as a self described “macho man.” Raymond, the male lead in Everybody Loves Raymond comes closer to being any ordinary person, albeit a “childlike” adult. Raymond spends much of his time trying to figure out his marriage and more specifically his high per-

formance wife. Raymond’s parents are ever present in his life and persistently insert themselves in ways that certainly undermines him and, not coincidently, his marriage. Raymond has no insight into this obvious and destructive intrusion by his parents. By Scot Hurlburt One consistent theme in these humorous sitcoms is the role of the wife. The wife in each of these shows is a highly capable, attractive and intelligent woman who must act the long suffering woman who leads her clueless husband around by the nose. The men in these shows seem to mess up just about everything, even the most elementary problem is too much for them. While certain stereotypes from the past needed correcting, such as those foisted upon women, depicting men as fools in the process seems a bit curious to me. I’m not sure what this cultural shift means for men and maybe these portrayals are part of a necessary, if not understood by me, evolution in cultural norms. Additionally, I wonder what effect these depictions are having on young people. Do they see their fathers as the feckless twits they seem to be on so many contemporary sitcoms? I wonder what John Walton would have said about men being portrayed as fools in popular culture? I suspect that he would have shook his head, said goodnight to John Boy and went to bed, just as I am about to do. Remember, all kids count.

Look for Coupons in All the Right Places
W
hen people hear how much money I save each week on my grocery bill by using coupons, there are those who conclude that I must use secret, special coupons that the rest of the world isn't clued into. In one of my coupon classes a woman asked, "Where do you find these coupons? I noticed my friend has different coupons in her paper than I do." Well, there's a reason for that. Did you know that the coupons you receive in your Sunday newspaper can be different depending on which paper you subscribe to? At times, companies wishing to reach different market areas will offer coupon promotions to specific newspapers. While all Sunday papers have coupon inserts, the coupons may vary depending on which paper you receive. I subscribe to two papers on Sunday, our local town newspaper and the big Chicago newspaper. While many times both papers will carry the same coupons, there are also times when one paper will have more or different coupons than another. The fact that different newspapers carry different coupons is usually - pardon the pun - news to most people. Obviously, I love coupons, and I enjoy receiving both newspapers on Sunday, not only to keep up on the local and regional news but also to maximize the number of coupons I get each week. Depending on where you live, it may be worth your while to see what coupons are available in each newspaper. While the newspapers inserts are always going to be the primary and best source for coupons, another good place to find coupons is on the Internet. Hundreds of product manufacturers and grocery stores themselves offer printable coupons for their products. Printing coupons from the Internet is easy to do. Browse to the Web site of the manufacturer of the product you're interested in. Look for a link to print coupons and select the ones you would like to print. Some Web sites may ask you to register for a free account. Others may ask you to install their plugin that will allow you to print their coupons each time you
visit. Then, simply click the Print Coupons link and the coupons will be sent right to your printer. It's good to note, too, that you're allowed to print most Internet coupons twice. Make sure to go back and print another set if you'd like to buy more than one of each item, which is always a smart idea when the price is By Jill Cataldo low. Check your store's Web site for coupons, too. Many stores offer printable coupons on their Web sites and some will also offer electronic coupons that you can load to your shopper's discount card digitally, via the store's Web site. This is an even easier way to use coupons since you don't need to print them out at all. Another great place to find good coupons is in grocery stores themselves. Don't forget to look for coupons in the aisles near the products you're shopping for. There are coupon dispensers and displays throughout the grocery store. You'd be surprised how many times you might find an item on sale for $1 ... and a dispenser full of $1 coupons right above it. Take advantage of both. Remember, pairing a $1 coupon with a $1 sale is one of the easiest ways to get groceries for free. Next week, I'll answer some more questions from readers like you. If you're getting started with coupons or you're a seasoned couponer with a question, please feel free to e-mail it to me at jill@ctwfeatures.com. Your answer may appear in a future column.

Garcia not qualified for DA
Roadside littering inexcusable To the editor: I am outraged at the disrespect some people have for our country. While men and women fight and die for us, people are driving down the road of our beautiful country and throwing their bags of garbage out the window because they don’t want to spend the 75 cents to take it to the dump. Whoever is doing this ought to be ashamed. God Bless America? You are a hypocrite! We live in these beautiful mountains, but some people just don’t care. I don’t understand the ignorance of people sometimes. It is hurting our Adirondacks, the animals and people that love and respect where we live. Wake up! Sarah Gledhill, Elizabethtown
Golf tourney a success To the editor: The Westport Central Sports Recognition Club would like to thank all involved in our second annual golf tournament. We would like to thank our host, John Hall, and his staff at the Westport Country Club; Eric Gay, Ike Tyler, Laura Napper, Linda Bigelow, and our DJ, John Mehan. Also, please support the following businesses and individuals who helped sponsor the outing: Dr. John Gallagher, Julie Garcia, The Village Meat Market, Indian Bay Marina, Toto’s Bar, CableCom of Willsboro, Chucks Plumbing and Heating, Trolling Tina’s Charters, The Old Dock Restaurant, The Rudder Club Restaurant, Pepsi, Plattsburgh Distributing, Treadwell Farms, Ernie’s Market, The Sportsman’s Diner, Old Adirondack Furniture, Egglefield Ford, and Zebra-Tech. Finally, a big thanks to all the players and we hope to see all of you again next year.
To the editor: Four years ago, my family met with then-candidate Garcia and listened to her false messages and inflated experience. Believing her, we worked hard aiding her campaign. Now, four years later, I am obligated to write this letter. She is simply not qualified for the job. I don’t care if she runs under the banner of the Republican, Democratic, Liberal, Independent, Whig, or Tory Party; she is not qualified for the job. She promised she would personally prosecute cases and would be a hands-on District Attorney. Has anyone actually seen her in Court questioning witnesses and personally presenting a case? We do not read about the number of cases lost by her office, only the small few they have won; again, none personally prosecuted by her. She is now accusing the party leaders of conspiring to get rid of her, yet forgets how she got herself the nomination four years ago! She wasn’t upset then and fling accusations, did she? This imaginary conspiracy would never have developed if she had simply done the job she was elected to do; the job she promised to do. Any political party has an obligation to find the best qualified candidate for the job. Her record, or lack of one, demonstrates she is not the person for this job. Anyone using the Freedom of Information Law can go to any court in this county and personally check her record. I do not know Ms. Sprague, but am certainly hoping to meet her and will support her. When I see her name in the paper or television, it is because she has successfully prosecuted another case.

WHALLONSBURG — A troupe of 23 young actors from five area towns got to work July 20 rehearsing their summer dance steps for Boquet River Theatre Festival’s production of “Willy Wonka Junior.” Based on the famous book “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” the musical tells the timeless story of the world famous candy man and his quest to find an heir. It features well known songs such as “The Candy Man,” “Pure Imagination,”
“Oompa Loompa” and “I Want it Now.” The excited group learned new songs for this summer's children's theatre production of Willy Wonka Junior in the newly restored Whallonsburg Grange Hall. When they aren’t learning lines, songs and choreography, the children have creative art projects to work on. They will rehearse from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day ahead of opening night. Willy Wonka opens at the Grange Hall on Aug. 7 and

TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce’s 17th annual Antique & Classic Car Show will have a new element this summer. A concert by local Elvis-impersonator Jim Cawley will kick off the show. “The King in Concert – An Elvis Tribute” starring Cawley will be performed Saturday, Aug. 1, at the EMA in Ticonderoga at 7 p.m. Tickets are on sale for $15 in advance or $18 at the door. Call 585-6619 for additional information or to buy tickets. The car show weekend begins Saturday with a poker run starting at 12:30 p.m. at Adam’s Rib Restaurant. Throughout the afternoon, the Ticonderoga Farmers’ Market will be offering a variety of produce and assorted goods, all locally grown and produced. Cawley’s Elvis Tribute caps off the evening. On Sunday, Aug. 2, the Ticonderoga car show — a Super Wheels qualifying show — runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Bicentennial Park. More than 300 antique and classic vehicles will be on display. Food and entertainment will be available throughout the day, as will music, games, prizes and more. There will be more than 100 trophies awarded in 35 different classes.

Morrow said the town applied for and received four grants totaling $559,300 that will aid in the renovation of the historic building, including asbestos removal, handicap accessibility, and a new, more efficient heating system. Renovations are expected to be completed in time for the facility to open next June. “This is the perfect place for a visitors’ center, down at the chasm, because of the thousands of tourists that come through there every year,” Morrow said. AuSable Chasm staff will continue to mow the lawn on the property, and the company will provide water and sewer services to the building at no cost to the town. In turn, the company hopes to benefit from the center as an added attraction. “I think it will make people’s experience of visiting the chasm more fulfilling,” said Bressette.

exhibits and office space for the North Country Underground Railroad Historical Association, a nonprofit organization that studies the way abolitionists helped escaped slaves make their way to Canada through the Champlain Valley. Volunteers from the organization will be responsible for staffing the center, which will remain open from June through October. School groups will be allowed to make reservations for tours through the winter to view the experiential Underground Railroad exhibits. “We have descendants of people who escaped from slavery living in the Adirondacks, and we have descendants of abolitionists,” said Don Papson, president of NCUGRHA. Although the building has no direct historical ties to the Underground Railroad, Papson said it was an excellent location for the historical exhibits because it’s located between Keeseville and Peru, two crucial stops along the Champlain Underground Railroad line. Some descendants “People are ready to celebrate this history, and we are ready to help bring it to them,” said Papson.

Jamie Clark woke up one morning with his face feeling limp. After a call to his doctor, he and his wife immediately went to the ER at ECH. “Obvious signs pointed to Bell’s palsy,” said Mr. Clark. “But the Physician Assistant on duty took the time to investigate further.” It turns out Mr. Clark had Lyme disease and since it was found early, the disease was easily treatable. Instances like this have made the Paul Clark family realize the importance of having a good hospital in their community and why they have chosen to support Elizabethtown Community Hospital.

When seconds count N
ot sure how many actually noticed, but I’ve been somewhat preoccupied lately and have failed in my task of producing this column for the past couple of weeks. But, alas, I am back — much to the chagrin of my family and friends who are too often the fodder for the material contained herein. Speaking of that, I ran into my cousin Mike last weekend, who was none too happy about the column I wrote about him awhile back. He said he doesn’t recall the incident in question. Sounds a little like a Bill Clinton response to me ... selective amnesia. But, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. I’m just glad I’m the only one in the family with a forum to divulge long-lost secrets. I’d be scared to see some of my own aged stories divulged in print. I am really glad to see the Elizabethtown Fish and Game Club reenergized. A lot of the credit should go to people like Alta Longware and club president Angie Wallace who were recently instrumental in organizing a local fishing derby on Lincoln Pond. The turnout was phenomenal for the first event, with more than 150 adult and youth anglers attending and the fishing was fast and furious. Prizes and food for the barbecue lunch were all graciously donated by area businesses including Big Papa’s Tackle, Cobble Hill, Deer’s Head, Bub’s Pizza and Deli, Westport Hotel, the AuSable Inn, Outdoor News, Stewart’s, Cabela’s, and Dick’s Sporting Goods. “Their contributions and the work of many volunteers made the derby a huge success,” Wallace said. A complete list of winners appears on this page with photographs of the event. The club is still looking for new members and meets the first Thursday of each month at the club site on Maple Road in Elizabethtown. All are invited to attend. Dinner begins at 6 p.m., followed by a short business meeting and outdoor activities for kids. For more information, call Wallace at 873-3277.
Handgun debate For those who haven’t heard, federal legislation that would have allowed those who hold a pistol permit to transport a handgun into nearly any other state fell short in the Senate last week by just two votes. The move died for a number of reasons, most notably the fact opponents said it would undermine tough requirements put in place by some states for the issuance of a license to conceal a handgun — like mandatory training courses and background checks. New York and California are two such states.
Others argued the move was unconstitutional and would restrict states’ rights by forcing them to accept other states’ gun carry permits. I’m not sure if either of these are legit. First, there is no live fire requirement in New York, so some of the people who complete the required course to obtain a pistol here will do so without ever having fired one — some without ever having fired a weapon, period. Does that make them more experienced than, say, your average Vermont resident who is allowed to carry a concealed gun without a course or permit? I know one thing — the debate showed just how loyal our freshman Senator Kirsten Gillibrand is going to be to the constituency who put her in Washington. On this debate, she came down squarely on the side of inner-city Democrats and voted “no.” As did Chuck Schumer, of course, but not before both used the debate as a bully pulpit for anti-gun rhetoric. “The Thune amendment would invite chaos in our cities,” Gillibrand said about the proposal. Schumer added, “The passage of this amendment would have done more to threaten the safety of New Yorkers than anything since the repeal of the assault weapons ban.” First of all, the assault weapons ban wasn’t repealed, it was allowed to expire and rioting in the streets hasn’t exactly transpired as a result. Violent crime has steadily dropped before, during and since the expiration of the ban. Gun incidents are now at an all-time low, while gun and ammunition sales are at an all-time high. Further, statistics have proven time and again violent crime plummets in areas in which the citizenry is allowed licensed, concealed carry. There is a lot to be said for the old adage that when seconds count, the police are just minutes away. So, while the “sky is falling” rhetoric spewed by Gillibrand and Schumer may bode well to their following in New York City, we common sense upstaters know better.

Marvin From page 1 “His heart had already started to enlarge at that time,” said Roemischer, noting that the early detection will hopefully provide an advantage in treatment. Though both boys have been able to lead a relatively normal lifestyle, they have each had pacemakers implanted to prevent cardiac arrest and have had to give up any activities that will elevate their heart rate. As a result, golf has become one of their favorite sports. Treatment for the disease is limited, and many patients eventually require heart transplants. A new treatment involving adult stem cells has shown promising results, but is extremely expensive and not widely available. “We want to have a monetary foundation for these boys, because they’re going to have to go through this their whole lives,” said Roemischer. “Health insurance will cover much of it, but not all.” Though doctors say Brock’s condition has worsened, it is currently manageable through medication and his pacemaker,
Roemischer said, but the family is assessing his status on a day-to-day basis and it’s likely he’ll need a heart transplant within the next two years. “His whole disposition is remarkably strong and optimistic,” she said, “which is huge at this point because his attitude could make or break him.” Besides golf, one thing helping to keep the boys’ spirits up has been the Make-AWish Foundation, the national organization that grants wishes for children with life-threatening illnesses. In January, the Make-A-Wish foundation granted Brock an all-expenses-paid trip with Smitty and Connor to LaQuinta, Calif. for the Bob Hope Classic, a procelebrity golf tournament, where he had the chance to get a lesson from golf legend Arnold Palmer. Just weeks ago, Connor had his MakeA-Wish granted when he, together with Brock and Smitty, were flown out to Scotland to attend this year’s British Open. “He said his favorite part was walking down the 15th fairway with John Daly,” Roemischer said. The trio also took some time to visit the world’s oldest golf course at the nearby St. Andrews Links.
Since the foundation has done so much for their family, Roemischer said the tournament in Westport will include contests to raise funds for Make-A-Wish in addition to Brock and Connor’s medical fund. Most of all, though, the event itself represents something for the boys to look forward to. “It’s just one of those little things we can do that is so huge for them,” she said. “It give them a little sparkle in their eye; a little more joy in their life.” Check-in for the tournament is at 9 a.m. Aug. 21. The format will be a four-man scramble with a 10 a.m. shotgun start. An entry fee of $75 per golfer includes 18 holes of golf, cart, food, on-course refreshments and prizes. Several local businesses have already offered to contribute as green and tee sponsors, but Roemischer said more are still needed. Pre-registration for participants, along with payment, is due by Aug. 14. More information, including an online registration application, can be found at www.brockssave.9k.com or by sending an e-mail to margotroemischer@yahoo.com.

Harwood From page 1 A steady steam of cars stopped in front of the Olympic Speed Skating Oval on Main Street to drop off athletes. The air was thick with the smell of magic markers as dozens of volunteers in blue T-shirts wrote the identifying race number on the arms and legs of the roughly 2,500 participants. Harwood was flanked by two friends and trainers, Michael Manosh and Tim Rielly, who offered last minute advice. He credited Manosh, a co-worker and two-time Ironman finisher, with helping him outline a training schedule to compete in the challenge. By 7 a.m. over 2,000 swimmers, all outfitted in black wet-suits and color coded swim-caps, were in Mirror Lake, listening as The National Anthem played on loudspeakers. Then, with a blast of sound, the water came alive with arms, legs and splashing water. During the 2.4 mile swim, and throughout the day, motivating high-energy music
filled the air. Portions of the race were lined with fences to protect the athletes and offer intimate viewing for spectators. The fences were lined with fans, many of them in special T-Shirts created for the day. You could spot a cluster of fans by the color of their shirts. Closer inspection told you who they were cheering for or offered other triathlon thoughts like “Real men wear lycra” or “You run... I'll nap.” Harwood had his own posse, all of them clad in bright orange T-Shirts that read “Ironman Joel Harwood 2009” on the front and "Team Harwood" on the back. In Lake Placid, Harwood's supporters included his wife, Barbara; children, Claire and Hugh; parents, brothers, sisters, several nieces and nephews, and many friends. In Keene, his in-laws, Al and AnnaBell Kurtz, and other friends were waiting along the race route to offer further encouragement. At least three times during the race, he found Barbara in the crowd and kissed her. Later, when asked if she thought about her husband’s, brain tumor during the race,
SATURDAY August 1, 2009
Barbara shook her head. “We don't think about it much anymore,” she said. “He was diagnosed, we did what we could to address it, and we were lucky.” Although Barbara claims she doesn't spend much time thinking about Joel's illness, she could easily rattle off dates and numbers of significance surrounding it. Diagnosed with the tumor in February 2007, he quickly underwent surgery to remove it, followed by several weeks of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. By June 2007, he had a clear brain scan. “We keep watching,” she said. “Last week another scan showed Joel was tumorfree.” But now Joel had another battle on his hands: completing one of the most demanding athletic events in the world. Late into the evening, he did just that, finishing the race with a time of 14 hours, 39 minutes and 42 seconds. On July 27, the day after the Ironman, Harwood replayed the race. “It went exactly how I had planned it in terms of training and my finish time,” he said. “I had a good swim and a strong bike
ride.” “The run was hard,” he added. “I ran the whole race between aid stations and walked up the hills. At that point my legs would only allow me to run so fast, so I ran as fast as I could.” Joel said he was most amazed by the thousands of volunteers who facilitated the event, assisting athletes, providing security, and even picking up trash. “The whole race was fun for me,” said Joel. “People were encouraging and complementing us (the athletes) throughout the race. It really felt good.” Joel's children offered their own insight on the race. Hugh, 13, summed up his thoughts in four words: “Exciting, proud, happy, exhilarating.” “I'm really proud of my Dad's accomplishment,” said Claire, age 15, “140.6 miles of exercising is really something.” Now that Joel has finally become an Ironman, he has some other goals in mind. “Maybe I should go for a bike ride,” he said jokingly to Barbara the day following the race, “but I won’t. I think I'll just watch some TV, drink some beer and sleep.”
