Brookies discovered in lake where pollution had killed other ﬁsh By Tim Rowland

Angel Marvin and sons Louis and Ben ready for race

STAFF WRITER

By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

ELIZ A BE T HTOWN | The N YC Marathon is a long-planned fun day Sunday for one Elizabethtown family. Angel Marvin and her two sons, Louis Scaglione, 25, and Ben Scaglione, 30, are running the avenues together. They’re not sure yet who will set the pace or cross the finish line first. But the trio began virtual training together earlier this year. “My mother is up in E’town while my brother is in Florida, so we haven’t been able to run together much at all,” Louis said from his home in Manhattan. “We have the same run tracking app on our phones, so we all kind of monitor each other’s progress as we post our runs and keep each other accountable in that way.” The idea of running the famed marathon came up as Louis watched the race from his windows above First Avenue last year.

LAKE PLACID | Nestled amidst the highest of the High Peaks at an elevation of nearly 3,000 feet, Lake Colden is higher than many mountains in the Adirondack Park. That elevation made it particularly susceptible to acid rain produced by coal-fired power plants in the Midwest, and by 1987, this increased acidity had killed all of Lake Colden’s fish. In 2004, the state checked Lake Colden again — still no fish. In 2011, nothing. But in early October, the Department of Environmental Conservation and Adirondack Lakes Survey Corporation announced an “amazing” surprise. A self-sustaining population of brook trout has taken hold in Lake Colden. The find represents the progress the nation has made in reducing the acidity of rain and snowfall. But it also represents a mystery: No one knows how the fish got there. Lake Colden is shallow and cold, covering 40 acres at a maximum depth of 25 feet. Upstream is the nine-acre Avalanche Lake, but it still remains too acidic for fish to survive. “At this point we are still looking into how the brook trout were re-established,” the DEC said in an email correspondence. “We have collected samples of genetic material that may shed some light on this subject. They were not stocked by DEC.” See TROUT » pg. 3

Essex County 4-H adds welding, tractor clubs Applications at 4-H Open House on Nov. 4 By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

LEWIS | Essex County 4-H is adding a new kind of hands-on explorers club, welding. It may be the only club of its type in New York. And as local 4-H programs gear up for the 2020 year, the new group will open to youth ages 13 to 18 throughout Essex County. The idea came up at the county fair this year. “I was approached with the idea during Fair Week,” 4-H spokeswoman Linda Gillilland told the Sun.

“And through a generous grant from the Pearsall Adirondack Foundation, I’ll be able to buy safety equipment for the teenagers who participate. Welding sparked the idea for a Tractor Club, so this is very exciting also.” Essex County-wide 4-H clubs also include Incredible Edibles (kitchen science)and a Cloverbud Café for children ages 5 to 8. There is also a Green Thumbs horticulture club, Adk Barks Dog club, Equi-Riders horse lovers’ club, and Microsoft Tech Changemakers digital literacy, Gillilland said. Many 4-H programs throughout Essex County lead programs in bluegrass music, babysitter training, livestock, horsemanship, environmental science, natural resources and a variety of STEAM projects.

JAY | Candidates for the Jay town board debated how best to make improvements on scant resources in a jurisdiction that tourists tend to speed on by on their way to the hotels and restaurants of Wilmington and Lake Placid. The candidates agreed on the need to pay highway workers more, and to improve parks and attract new business and residents — but a scant budget and community

sentiment against breaking the state-guided 2% tax cap makes this difficult. Three seats are up for grabs on the board Tuesday. By virtue of winning a primary to replace a board member who resigned midterm, Knut Sauer is virtually assured of winning one. Four candidates are competing for the two remaining seats: Incumbent Tom McDonald, a Republican; Adam Coolidge, an independent candidate on the Community First party line; Democrat Wayne Frederick; and John Sheldrake, on the Republican and Independent Honesty party lines. Also attending the debate was Essex County Clerk candidate Kari Ratliff, who is running as an independent candidate on the Time4Change ballot line. The debate was hosted by the nonpartisan Adirondacks Indivisible community action group. See CANDIDATES » pg. 6

Community Bank named Winter Empire State Games sponsor through 2022 LAKE PLACID | Community Bank, N.A. will return as the Title Sponsor of the Empire State Winter Games for the next three years (20202022). The extended partnership begins this January when the ESWGs celebrates 40 years of competition in the Adirondack region. “We’re excited to continue our partnership with the Empire State Winter Games,” Community Bank Chief Executive Officer Mark Tryniski said. “At Community Bank N.A., we’re more than a bank. We are members of the community that live, work and play here in the North Country. We’re proud to sponsor the Games that gives us a chance to celebrate our state’s love of winter sports and cheer on local participants.” Throughout its more than 150-year history, Community Bank has remained committed to a community-focused approach that puts its neighbors and customers first, including offering financial support to its communities through in-kind donations and volunteer service. It has been the title sponsor of the Empire State Winter Games, which contributes to the North Country’s economy, for four consecutive years. The bank is based in New York State but has more than 240 branches across Upstate New York,

region’s Olympic heritage and legacy is alive and well and the ESWG brings participants as close as they can get to that feeling. The Games are an unforgettable experience for all that compete and moreover it’s an incredible opportunity for our athletes that come from over 15 states and three countries, to form lasting friendships and enrich their lives in a way that they never forget.” Athletes, clubs, families and spectators can use the ESWG website (www.empirestatewintergames.com) and social media (@ eswgames) for event details and updates.

Colden was stocked back in the 1920s, and perhaps these or other brookies survived in cleaner streams flowing into Lake Colden. “Albeit speculative, there is precedent for brook trout maintaining populations in tributaries with viable water quality,” the DEC said.

improve air quality statewide have resulted in cleaner air, and now we have even more evidence that all species can benefit from decisions based on sound science and investments in effective policies.” But Seggos and conservation groups warned that the success may be short lived if the current administration

continues to roll back clean air measures enacted by previous presidents and congresses. According to a Carnegie Mellon study, American air quality worsened in 2017-18 for the first time in years. The cited cause was a combination of western wildfires and the Trump administration’s failure to enforce the Clean Air Act that was passed in 1963. The Lake Colden fish population shows evidence of being around for several years, and is “relatively stable,” the DEC said. The news is encouraging for other high-altitude lakes in the park, which the DEC and ALSC have been monitoring through the years. “From the 1990 ALSC Interpretive Report we know that 1,469 lakes were sampled by ALSC, and 352 of those waters were fishless,” the DEC said. “Of those 352 waters approximately 106 waters were estimated to be fishless due to the addition of man-made mineral acidity.” The groups are performing advanced chemical studies of 42 bodies of water, and as a result 19 have been stocked with trout on an experimental basis. “The recovery from acidity appears to be ongoing in some waters and continued improvement may allow us to stock waters in the future that are not currently ready to stock,” the DEC said. Hardy anglers can fish Lake Coldon — getting there isn’t easy — but use of baitfish is prohibited. Pollution isn’t the only thing threatening trout — many populations have been wiped out by the introduction of predatory fish such as bass into a lake or pond. ■

Stewart’s Shops opens into new, larger space in E’town

Photos by Kim Dedam

Gas service area closed for upgrade, demolition of old store By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | Stewart’s Shops moved into its new, larger grocery and deli space here on Wednesday, completing the first phase of its expansion plan. The next step closes the gas pumps for redevelopment of

the service area and demolition of the old store building. “The new shop will open (Wednesday),” Stewart’s Shops spokeswoman Erica Komoroske said Tuesday. “The new shop in Elizabethtown is part of our $50 million investment to meet our growing customer needs, offering a wider variety of food and beverage options, and to make their shopping experience even easier.” There will be a beer cave in the new store, along with a deli and seating area. The store will expand gasoline service with four new gas pumps, including diesel. “Gas construction usually takes four to five weeks. We will

be adding diesel to this shop, and we are going from two dispensers to four. We anticipate pumping at the shop on Dec. 10,” Komoroske said. “We are pleased to bring Elizabethtown a brand new Stewart’s Shop; so many residents rely on Stewart’s as their grocery store, ice cream and coffee shop, diner and a community meeting place.” Stewart’s Shops will host an official grand opening celebration with a ribbon cutting Dec. 20. The larger format Elizabethtown shop was one of five the Saratoga Springs-based company opened in the region this year in addition to renovations at other locations. ■

It’s time Americans stepped up and learned about First Amendment By Judy Patrick GUEST COLUMNIST

The First Amendment isn’t getting the appreciation and respect it deserves. Increasingly battered and misunderstood, it needs all the support it can get as divisive politics and advancing technologies drag us in new directions. Many Americans don’t even know the basics. Of the five freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment, 71 percent of Americans can name at least one, according to the 2019 State of The First Amendment poll by the non-profit Freedom Forum Institute. That’s certainly an improvement over 2018, when a pitiful 60 percent of those polled could name at least one of the five freedoms. But consider this: Of the 1,007 Americans polled for the 2019 survey, just six people correctly named all five freedoms. In case the pollsters call you next year: The First Amendment guarantees freedom of speech, the press, religion and the right to petition and the right to assembly. Better yet: We all need to work harder at being citizens who understand our rights, our responsibilities, how government works and what we value. These powerful First Amendment freedoms, for example, give us all the courage to be independent thinkers and to live our lives how we want to. They allow us to challenge authority in ways unheard of in so many other parts of the world. It enables the press to act independently, hold government accountable and tilt at the occasional windmill.

Letters

Gene Policinski, president of the Freedom Forum Institute, said these freedoms help define who we are as Americans. For him, the First Amendment is the “blue collar amendment” – because it’s such a workhorse, going to work every day in a real down-to-earth way. Yet confusion is increasing. More people in this year’s survey incorrectly thought the First Amendment includes the right to vote (up to 14 percent from 2 percent in 2018) and the right to bear arms (up to 16 percent from 9 percent in 2018). There is some good news. The poll did not find substantial erosion in trust in journalism with 72 percent of those polled agreeing that it’s important for our democracy that the news media act as a government watchdog, down from 73 percent in 2018. Policinski, however, worries that result may be skewed, reflecting people’s loyalty to their individual “information bubbles.” The emergence of powerful social media platforms has also muddied the waters; 65 percent of those polled agreed that social media companies such as Facebook and Twitter violate users’ First Amendment rights when they ban people. They don’t. The First Amendment’s protections apply to the government, not private companies. But the First Amendment presents us with all sorts of emotional and intellectual challenges. It’s easy to support free speech when we agree with what’s being said. It’s far more challenging when we disagree or abhor what is being said, printed, painted, built or sung. Indeed, the First Amendment has challenged us as a society as we have debated topics such as school prayer, flag burning,

Freedom of Speech, Norman Rockwell, Oil on canvas, Saturday Evening Post, February 20, 1943 (© 1943 SEPS: Licensed by Curtis Publishing, Indianapolis, IN; Norman Rockwell Museum Collection). printing classified information, curfews, the teaching of evolution, protests at military funerals, blue laws, Christmas displays in public parks and mandatory measles vaccinations. The rhetoric around such issues can be alienating. An increasing number of us, for example, think the First Amendment goes too far in the rights it guarantees (29 percent in 2019, up from 23 percent in 2018 and 2017). Maybe we just need another Norman Rockwell for an idealistic re-boot. In the 1940s, as the U.S. headed into what would become World War II, Rockwell’s series of freedom paintings helped

Frederick also said local residents need to be encouraged to shop at home instead of “driving to Keeseville to save 25 cents.” Coolidge said Jay might not have a lot of storefronts, but it has more hidden commerce than meets the eye. “I don’t think people realize how many businesses we have in this town,” he said. Because commerce is going digital, “There’s no reason why we can’t have business and infrastructure here,” he said. Coolidge also said the town needs a Chamber of Commerce to help with promotion. The candidates agreed that Jay needs to increase its tax base, which would allow its budget to grow. McDonald said surveys have indicated the need for more residential housing, which he said should be encouraged. Without new revenue, the budget remains constrained. “We go through it line by line and our budget is very

public libraries had a publicly accessible computer – and today for libraries who serve patrons in rural areas where internet access is impossible, free WiFi access is a lifeline 24/7, even when the library is closed. With libraries being increasingly called upon to assist state government in its initiatives (the upcoming 2020 Census is but one example), it’s time for Governor Cuomo to update his thinking and actions about libraries. He needs to make a bold new investment in our libraries to provide them with the needed resources to provide all New Yorkers with 21st Century library service. Libraries are a cornerstone of New York’s education and civic infrastructure. Governor Cuomo needs to invest in libraries.

To the Editor: With the coming of autumn, thoughts turn to the rapidly approaching new year, and with it a new Executive Budget for New York State. In each of his last three budgets Governor Andrew Cuomo has made a baffling decision; repeatedly removing increases in Library funding enacted by the Legislature during the previous year. The Governor’s repeated $5M budget cut to Library Aid demonstrates either ignorance or apathy to the vital role that libraries play in our north country communities. Despite the rapidly evolving function of libraries in meeting the needs of all New Yorkers, last year Governor Cuomo proposed Library Aid at just 1% above where it had been funded two decades earlier in 1999. In 1999, less than one third of

Americans understand the freedoms at stake. His four iconic works captured parts of the First Amendment (freedom of speech and religion) and added the freedoms to be free of want and fear. Despite President Franklin Roosevelt’s oratory, the “four freedoms” he outlined in 1941 speech failed to resonate with the public in a meaningful way. For help, the White House reached out to the nation’s artists and musicians. “[Rockwell] wanted to interpret them in a way the average American could understand,” said Stephanie Plunkett, chief curator of the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Mass. But it was a challenge. “The Four Freedoms are so darned high blown. Somehow I just couldn’t get my mind around it,” Rockwell is quoted as saying. But by using scenarios from real life in small-town America, did just that. Rockwell’s “Freedom of Speech,” featuring a man standing up and speaking up in a crowded meeting room, was based on an actual town meeting in Arlington, Vt. The man was a farmer unhappy with a school project that would increase his taxes. “He gave his opinion, nodded his head and sat down,” Plunkett said. Rockwell’s idealistic “Four Freedoms” have remained popular, both providing a sense of what led America to World War II and as underscoring ideals that remain important throughout in the world, Plunkett said. ■ — Judy Patrick is the Executive VP for Editorial Development for the New York Press Association.

tight,” he said. “It’s really tough.” Sheldrake, a former board member, agreed that “We have to provide for our needs and services without hurting the taxpayers.” Sheldrake, in his opening statement, cited his experience with a number of organizations, including the senior citizen club, Cornell extension office and various town committees. He said he was instrumental in sewer and water projects, and supported the local food pantry and restoration of the East Branch of the Ausable River. McDonald, who has served on the board for 12 years, said improvements under his watch include outdoor boiler and junkyard laws. “If we’ve got a town that looks junky, people are just going to drive on through,” he said. Coolidge said he favors low taxes, but there are some areas where the town has to step up, such as funding the highway department, where employees have left for better pay elsewhere. “We’re losing a vast amount of knowledge and experience,” he said. As an opportunity for more revenue, Coolidge cited the

2023 University Games in Lake Placid, which will be “twice as big as the Olympics” and create spinoff opportunities for communities like Jay. Frederick said the town has lost ground in terms of businesses and services such as flood prevention. “We’re missing a lot of things that we used to have,” he said. He said investment and promotion can help revive the town. Sauer said the town board needs “a breath of fresh air” and members who “can turn the economic tide around.” He said the town should be able to parlay its mountains, rivers and trails into tourist and investment dollars. County Clerk candidate Ratliff, an employee of the Department of Motor Vehicles, said she is running because the offices controlled by the clerk, including the DMV, have become oppressive places to work. “Morale needs to be improved,” she said. “There is too much favoritism, and that needs to stop.” Ratliff said she would also maximize revenue potential in the office, and that happier employees will provide better public service. Employees “are not going to wake up in the morning and dread coming to work,” she said. ■

‘THEY PACK LOVE IN THOSE SHOEBOXES’ Operation Christmas Child aims to bring smiles locally and across the world By Andrea VanValkenburg STAFF WRITER

PLATTSBURGH | For millions of children across the world, living without basic necessities is a harsh reality and the idea of gifts a foreign concept. That’s what local volunteers are working to change this holiday season as they gear up for Operation Christmas Child.

DROP-OFF LOCATIONS: First Assembly of God in Plattsburgh (central location locally) Christ and St. John’s Episcopal Church in Champlain Westport Bible Church in Westport Shiloh Baptist Church in Malone High Peaks Church in Saranac Lake Hours vary between locations, but all are accepting donations during the national collection drive Nov. 18-Nov. 25 ■

POLICE BLOTTER

Willsboro woman arrested after alleged attack

WILLSBORO | A local woman is facing charges after police say she attacked another woman and threatened her with a knife. Kara M. O’Hara, 28, was arrested Oct. 20 in connection with the alleged assault earlier that month

when she allegedly punched and kicked another woman in the Willsboro area. O’Hara is now facing charges of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, third-degree assault and third-degree menacing. She was released on her own recognizance following arraignment in Willsboro Town Court and will reappear in court at a later date to face the allegations. ■

From MARATHON » pg. 1

“I texted my mother about the constant cheering, which didn’t let up for the entire day. The adrenaline and energy was incredibly infectious and made you want to be a part of it. We kinda floated the idea of ‘what if we tried to get into the race and run together?’ I didn’t at all expect it to come to fruition,” Louis said. “But here we are.” “There’s definitely going to be some brotherly competition between Louis and I, without a doubt,” Ben said from his home in Florida. “Trying to keep up with him will either be the driving force that leads to me finishing the race or the catalyst for my collapse halfway through. Who can say.” Training has been part of the plan all along. “I’m not quite as regimented in my training and I think I assume I’ll be able to handle it when the time comes,” Ben said. “I don’t really have a set pace in mind since this is my first marathon. But if I run a slower time than my mom I’ll never hear the end of it.” For Angel, the finish line and year-long training with her sons — even across many miles — is the thing. “I think the boys each want to beat the other to the finish line, but I know that neither has any idea what 26.2 miles will be like. In the end I know we’ll just be happy to finish, and To the Editor, I write to inform your readers as to why they should vote for Julie Garcia for State Supreme Court Justice, 4th Judicial District, in the upcoming election on November 5th. Julie is a North Country native, born and raised in Essex County, and is the only candidate running to fill one of the four Supreme Court vacancies that lives and works in the North Country. The citizens of the northern and rural counties in this district deserve to have a sitting Supreme Court Justice who understands the needs and struggles which are unique to rural areas. In a district that stretches geographically from Schenectady up to the Canadian border, it makes sense to have justices on the bench who represent all areas contained in its boundaries, not just the southern counties. Julie Garcia was the first woman ever elected as Essex County District Attorney and has practiced in state and federal courts throughout this district for the last 20 years. She has been both a prosecutor and a defense attorney, a representative of parties to civil proceedings, and an attorney for children that were the subject of custody and juvenile delinquency proceedings. Her vast and varied experience are not her only qualifications for this position, however. Her character, strength, sense of self, and dedication to what is right are what make her a rare human being, and an exceptional candidate for this important job. Raised in Witherbee, NY with her 5 siblings, within walking distance from the iron ore pit where her family members worked in the mines, Julie has the kind of grit and tenacity borne from an upbringing where nothing was handed to her freely, but was earned through hard work and perseverance. Her fortitude is also evident in the fact that she spent 14 years working her way through college waitressing, bartending, and working for the paper mill among other jobs to earn her degree in social work from Siena. Julie is the kind of person who is invigorated and called to action by the challenges she encounters, and never backs down in the face of hardship. Julie is also a person to whom family means everything. When she was just starting her career as an Assistant District Attorney down in Suffolk County, her mother and sister both tragically perished months apart, their deaths a result of their struggles with addiction. Julies sister left behind three children, and Julie moved back up to the North Country, obtained custody of her two young nieces, and proceeded to raise them amidst the support of their surviving family members. While Julie generally does not advertise this turn of events in her life, it may indeed be the strongest testament to who she is and what she stands for. Please consider voting for Julie Garcia for Supreme Court Justice, 4th Judicial District this November 5th. Claudia K. Braymer Glens Falls Paid for by the committee to Elect Julie Garcia

“It touched my heart,” volunteer Robert Turek said about when he first learned about the nationwide initiative through Samaritan’s Purse, an International Relief Organization. “The fact these children have never received a Christmas gift. And it’s not just the gift; they pack love in those shoeboxes.” The shoeboxes are what local volunteers are now hoping the community will help fill and ship to the deserving hands of kids across the world. “Many of the kids have never received a gift before,” Rita Alford, Samaritan’s Purse northeast region area coordinator said. “They’re simple gifts to us, but to them it’s extravagant.” Each shoebox is stuffed with everything from basic hygiene items, school supplies and small toys and trinkets, designed specifically by gender and age group. The international effort started in a Bosnian orphanage 25 years ago, and has since seen shoeboxes into the hands of 168 million children in more than 100 countries. “And we have an 11 million goal worldwide this year,” Alford said of the upcoming shoebox-drive in mid-November. Last year, local volunteers collected nearly 9,500 shoeboxes, which made their way to four countries, including Tanzania. Alford was one of the few who were able to travel to the impoverished country to see the boxes handed out. “It’s a surprise for the kids, and they go through all kinds of emotions,” she recalled of the life changing experience. Each shoebox contains what volunteers call a “wow item” - a soccer ball, dolls, tools for older boys and little games. “The stuffed animals are always a hit, and sunglasses are universal.” She said the priceless smiles on their faces makes the

annual drive even more rewarding. “It’s just incredible, and they can’t believe it’s all for them.” ■

TO HELP: The shoebox drive is being held Nov. 18-Nov. 25. Volunteers ask that each shoebox is filled with non-liquid hygiene items, school supplies, small clothing or footwear items, such as flip flops, and an age-appropriate wow gift, all of which should be unwrapped from packaging. There’s a $9 shipping fee for each box and the child’s appropriate gender and age should be labeled. Volunteers can also include a personalized letter and track the gift as it travels overseas. Alford said those interested “can participate by packing shoeboxes, they can also donate items at one of our drop-off locations or help with shipping by making a check out to Samaritan’s Purse. People can also volunteer at our drop-off sites.” A special drop-off event is being held Nov. 9 at Chic Fil-A in Plattsburgh, where residents can drop off their packed shoeboxes and get a free chicken sandwich for their participation. Those interested can find more information on the drive, age groups, suggested gift items, how to make a donation, volunteer options, printable gift tags and more on Samaritan’s Purse’s website www. samaritanspurse.org or by email Alford at alfordr@ plattsburghag.org. ■

Man allegedly drove lawn mower drunk on road LEWIS | Police say a local man is facing felony charges after he allegedly drove a lawn mower drunk and on the wrong side of the road. The incident happened Oct. 15, when, Lewisbased State Police say, Glen A. Hall was stopped in

whoever gets over the line first won’t be shy about claiming bragging rights, I’m sure. I know it won’t be me,” she quipped. Louis is counting on his height and legs to hit that finish line first. He initially planned to run with his mom. “When mom brought my brother into the fold, all of it changed. I knew it would be competitive between Ben and I, and it added a little more urgency and focus to my training. T.B.D. who comes out on top, but he’s got short legs, so I like my odds.” Louis said his pacing goal early in training was to hit a 4- or 4.5-hour time for the entire race. “As I’ve gotten deeper into training that goal has slowly turned into’ let’s just finish this thing without stopping and hope we can walk after,’” he said. “I would love to keep my minute-per-mile pace sub 10 at least, fingers crossed.” Angel has her goal set, too: “I’m aiming for under five hours.” “For me, I’m sort of winging it a bit more than either my mom or brother,” Ben said. “The whole process has been a huge learning experience,” Louis allowed. “There’s so much to take into consideration like rehydration stops; how to keep my nipples from being chaffed out of existence when I’m running for hours at a time; how to best get calories into your system during long runs.” To the Editor, Julie Garcia for Supreme Court Justice: I am a lifelong Republican, retired Warren County Undersheriff and am entering my 50th year as a volunteer firefighter. With this experience, I have met and interacted with many people, including attorneys. Julie Garcia is an inspiration to any young person growing up in rural New York with a desire to be an educated professional with a strong drive to help others. This election should not be based on party affiliation, but should be about the candidates background, experience and ethics. Having known Julie Garcia over the years, I have watched her work hard and always be there for her entire family. As a prosecutor and defense attorney, she was always unbiased with every case no matter who the person was, financial status or political affiliation. She truly is a remarkable person in every sense and I know she would fairly represent the 4th Judicial District as a Supreme Court Justice. I urge you to vote for Julie Garcia on election day. Robert E. Swan, Chestertown Paid for by the Committee to Elect Julia Garcia

No matter the finish time, one big goal has been accomplished. “I think what drew us all to competing in the marathon together was the distance we’ve all experienced over the past couple years,” Ben mused. “Since Louis and I each graduated college, I feel like our family has become a little more separated. This was an awesome suggestion to get us all working towards a common goal and feeling a little bit closer to each other, despite the geographical distance between us.” An app is available to download ahead of the race on Sunday. It can be used to track runner and progress in the race: TCS NYCMarathon. The app is free on the App Store and on Google Play. The race starts at 8:30 a.m. on Sunday and draws around 50,000 runners. Last year, the average finish time was 04:40:22, and runners from 129 different countries raised a combined $40 million for charity. ■

To the Editor, I am writing to urge your readers to get out and vote for Julie Garcia for Supreme Court Justice in the Fourth Judicial District on November 5th. She is the ONLY North Country candidate in this race. Despite being a registered Republican, and despite there being four openings for this position, I will be voting ONLY for Julie Garcia for Supreme Court. Judicial elections are no place to demonstrate a persons blind loyalty to their political party. Judgeships should be chosen by putting aside political agendas and choosing people, not parties. Because I have known Julie for 26 years, I know without a doubt that she is the best person for this job. Her 20-plus years of experience as an attorney are unparalleled by the other candidates. There is a reason she was elected as the first woman District Attorney in Essex County she is a pioneer, a fighter for what is right, and a person who sticks to her principles no matter what the situation or the cost. Julie Garcia is full of life and has an infectious energy that inspires you to get out there and advocate for what you believe in. Her tenacity is just one more reason, out of countless others, why you should vote for Julie Garcia on November 5th, or during the early voting period beginning on October 26th. Although the ballot says vote for ANY four, I will be voting for ONLY Julie since it is important to me to elect a North Country candidate.

TI FEDERAL CREDIT UNION TO CHANGE TO TRAILNORTH NORTH COUNTRY | Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union has announced that they will be changing their name to TrailNorth Federal Credit Union on Jan. 1, 2020. The name change reflects the company’s effort to reach more members after their most recent charter expansion in 2018 that increased their field of membership to include the counties of Essex, Washington, Warren, Clinton and Franklin in New York and Addison County in Vermont. “This larger field of membership will lay the foundation for long-term growth allowing the Credit Union to provide cutting-edge products and services to more members for many years to come,” a press release said. “As we expand into additional New York counties and Vermont, it is imperative that we remain relevant and accessible in our industry. Careful thought went into making this decision. The credit union conducted analysis including a number of surveys – both of its current members and those in outlying counties and communities. The survey results indicated that our current name, limits our ability to demonstrate that our services are available to those outside of Ticonderoga. The name TrailNorth Federal Credit Union was chosen to reflect the fact

Lovable Lucas is looking for a lap By Breyanna Villani COLUMNIST

Doing the right thing for members has guided the Credit Union through many changes in the past and being focused on those values will guide them through this change as well.” For more information regarding the name change, visit tfcunow.com/trailnorth. ■

Lucas is another adorable white and tabby cat looking for his furever home. This 4-year-old is a really well-rounded kitty, who delights people with his playful antics. He loves to play fetch with his toys and prefers some lap time every day. While most cats are not a big fan of water, Lucas likes to play around in it and doesn’t mind getting his paws wet. Afterwards, he takes a bath, as this cat enjoys being clean and tidy. However, Lucas’s situation is different from most of our other shelter cats. That’s because Lucas is a bit of a special-needs case, as he is feline leukemia positive. What does this mean for Lucas? For him, it means he gets to live the luxurious life of an indoors-only cat. What does that mean for a potential adopter? Read on to learn more about feline leukemia, Lucas, and living with both. Feline leukemia is a confusing name, as it is not a blood cancer. It is an incurable virus that is present in 2-3% of US cats (Cornell Feline Health Center). This virus is moderately contagious and is mostly transmitted between cats through infected saliva, which is why it is important to keep feline leukemia positive cats separated from other cats who have not been vaccinated. It can also be transmitted through other bodily fluids. As the virus can affect almost any organ system in a cat’s body, it can be difficult to tell if a cat is infected and what appears to be a healthy cat can still transmit the virus. Feline leukemia results in a compromised immune system and can often lead to secondary health problems. What does life with feline leukemia mean for Lucas and his potential adopters? As the virus only affects felines, Lucas can live among other species with no fear of transmission. Lucas can live with other cats, but they must be adult cats who have had the vaccination, and it must be kept up yearly. Lucas should have twice-yearly vet visits, to monitor his health. He should

As the shelter environment isn’t great for his health, Lucas is currently living in a foster situation. His foster parents tell us that he is a happy and healthy cat, who loves to play with his catnip pillows and also hide them under furniture. They say that he plays in the wet shower in the mornings and in the evenings, he runs to meet them at the door. Lucas’ lifespan will be shorter than that of most other indoor cats, but with proper attention to his health he should still enjoy the long and fulfilling life of an indoor cat. The only thing this lovable boy is missing in his life is his forever home with that warm lap. Are you the one to make Lucas’ life complete? Please visit our website or call the shelter for more information on Lucas. For more information on feline leukemia, please visit the ASPCA’s comprehensive page on common cat diseases. ■

ECH Auxiliary awards $5,000 in scholarships to students ELIZABETHTOWN | The UVM Health Network - Elizabethtown Community Hospital recently welcomed 15 new students to its paramedic education program, now in its second year. The hospital auxiliary awarded $1,000 scholarships to five of the incoming students through a newly-established scholarship fund. Laura Sells-Doyle, president of the UVM Health Network-Elizabethtown Community Hospital Auxiliary, said the scholarship fund was created in 2018. “Shortly after the paramedic education program began, we set aside dollars to support it. This is an investment not only in the future of these students but also in our community’s emergency medical services.” “For more than a decade, our dedicated members have worked to raise money to improve the patient experience and promote the health of our community,” said SellsDoyle. The Auxiliary has a long tradition of supporting a range of hospital departments and programs. In recent years, funds raised through annual events like the Dinner@8 and the Doc Lopez Run for Health, have helped to sponsor community health clinics and support the purchase of equipment for patients.

2019 SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS COMMITTED TO THEIR COMMUNITIES

For Nabeel Hameed of Lewis, the auxiliary scholarship award will help defray the cost of tuition, which totals $5,200 per student. The auxiliary scholarship, according to Hameed, is helping to support the next generation of prehospital providers. “It’s a comfort to patients when they know their paramedic,” Hameed. “I want to become a paramedic so I can give back to the community that raised me and the Auxiliary is helping me do just that.” As an auxiliary scholarship recipient,

Department of Health accredited program. “Many of these students also juggle part- or full-time jobs,” added Barry, “so a local program makes this next career step for EMTs a possibility.” Paramedics build on their EMT training to develop advanced skills to carry out procedures such as such as administering medications, orally and intravenously; performing airway management; and learning to resuscitate and support patients with lifethreatening problems such as heart attacks and traumatic injuries. The UVM Health Network-Elizabethtown Community Hospital designed the program to minimize tuition and travel costs, offering classrooms in Lewis, Malone and Queensbury and a virtual classroom online. The course prepares students to sit for the New York State Paramedic Certification exam and to go on to offer high-quality pre-hospital care. “Graduates of the paramedic program are ready to respond to a range of emergencies from heart attacks to traumatic injuries,” Barry said. “There is a growing need for paramedics in our region and across New York State. With this program, we have been able to grow our own paramedics to help meet this need.” Donations to the Paramedic Education Program Scholarship Fund may be made by mail to the UVM Health NetworkElizabet htow n Communit y Hospital Auxiliary, 75 Park St., Elizabethtown, NY 12932. For more information, visit UVMHealth.org/ECH or call 518-873-3003. ■

The Elizabethtown Community Hospital awards $5,000 in scholarships to area students involved in paramedic program. Photo provided Hameed is joined by four area students, each of whom was selected by paramedic education program staff for a demonstrated commitment to their community. Shannon Dunklee, who has seven years’ experience as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) in Fort Edward, New York, hopes to become a flight paramedic in the region. Richard Long and Allison Vrooman, from Whitehall, New York, are actively engaged in sustaining and expanding local emergency services. For North Creek native, M ichelle SanAntonio, becoming a paramedic will be the next step in a career change inspired by her, “love of caring for the community.” Each of the recipients also received support from the Richard Beebe Memorial Scholarship Fund. Beebe was a paramedic, registered nurse, author and educator from Albany, New York who

was a mentor to many paramedics in the region.

YEAR TWO FOR NEW PARAMEDIC EDUCATION PROGRAM

“Before we started this program, students would have to travel more than a hundred miles to participate in a paramedic certificate program,” said Bruce Barry, director of the paramedic program at the UVM Health Network - Elizabethtown Community Hospital. The program, launched in 2018 to address a shortage of local paramedic education opportunities, is the region’s first New York State

WESTPORT | Champlain Area Trails (CATS) officials announced that Derek Rogers has been hired as the organization’s first development director. Before moving to the Adirondacks earlier this year, Rogers worked for the Nature Conservancy (TNC) on Long Island for 11 years. No stranger to the Champlain Valley, he graduated from SUNY Plattsburgh, where he met his wife, Elizabeth. They have a 14-month old daughter named Phoebe and just bought a house on Willsboro Point. A dedicated birder and ornithological expert, Rogers participated in donor development and cultivation efforts for TNC, including event coordination and guiding donor trips and programs to many parts of the world. Rogers will play a major role in raising the funds for CATS to advance the organization’s mission to save land and make hiking trails that link communities, connect people with nature, and promote economic vitality. “I’ve admired the work that CATS does for some time and I’m thrilled to help the organization grow and achieve its goals,” he said. “I can hardly wait to hike all the trails, and I’m especially pleased to help expand the programs into Clinton County

and then into the southern part of the valley.” The development director position was supported with funding from the New York State Conservation Partnership Program (NYSCPP) and New Derek Rogers York’s Environmental Photo provided Protection Fund. The NYSCPP is administered by the Land Trust Alliance in coordination with the state Department of Environmental Conservation. “As we pursue the goal of having hiking trails connect our towns, we’re grateful that this grant will help us move down that path,” said CATS Executive Director Chris Maron. “And we’re very happy to have someone with Derek’s skill set and interest join the staff. I think birders in the area will also rejoice.!” Champlain Area Trails is a nonprofit organization that creates and maintains hiking and cross-country ski trails in the Champlain Valley. CATS is an accredited land trust working to conserve natural communities, farmland, clean water and scenic vistas. Information on future CATS events and activities is available on the organization’s website, champlainareatrails.com, and by following CATS on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Saranac Lake is also no stranger to the Section VII/Class C finals, having played for the title last season against Seton Catholic. This season, the Red Storm used a 39th minute goal from Nicholas Kelting on a Colter Cheney-Seymour assist to give Saranac Lake all the offense it would need in a 1-0 win over Northern Adirondack. The defense was stout throughout, as Zach Churco was called on to make a pair of saves as the Red Storm limited the Bobcats two four total shots, two on net. Lucas Smart returned to the goalie position for the Bobcats and made nine saves. ■

BLUE BOMBERS RETURN

After missing out on the sectional finals for the first time after five straight championships, the Blue Bombers punched their ticket back into the Class C finals with a 1-0 win over a scrappy AuSable Valley team Oct. 26. Cooper Grady scored in the 48th minute of play on an assist from Sebastian Narvaez, while the Lake Placid defense kept the Patriots away from the net.

RED STORM RETURN TO C FINALS By Nathanael LePage WRITER

SARANAC LAKE | The Saranac Lake varsity football team earned a shot at the Section VII/Class B Championship with a 21-7 win over Saranac Saturday at Wilson Raymond Field. The Red Storm defense bailed out its offense in the first half, holding the Chiefs scoreless despite four turnovers. “We had things rolling in the first half, we just didn’t protect the ball,” Saranac Lake head coach Eric Bennett said. “The second half was more of the same, except we protected the ball. It was nice to see our run game clicking.”

The only score of the first half was a 78-yard pass from the Red Storm’s Rhett Darrah, who found Sam Donaldson open at the right hash marks. “I faked to the other side, and I knew Sam would be wide open,” Darrah said. “He’s the fastest kid on our team. I just threw it up there and waited for Sam to get under it.” Despite the turnovers, momentum remained with Saranac Lake, and the Red Storm nearly doubled their lead with the final play before halftime, falling at the 1-yard line. The second half was cleaner for the home team, with no more turnovers and two more scores. A 1-yard thirdquarter touchdown run by Logan Brown and a 14-yard

scramble by Darrah in the opening minute of the fourth quarter extended the lead to three possessions. Brown also came up big defensively, with an interception in the fourth quarter stymieing the Chiefs and allowing the Red Storm to run out more of the clock. “I knew that there was a guy behind me not covered, and I saw my boys rushing the quarterback,” Brown said. “When they tipped that pass, I saw that ball lollipop and I knew I had it.” Saranac’s retooled offense finally scored with two minutes remaining, with a 13-yard touchdown run by Garrett Adolfo, but were unable to mount a comeback. With only three days of practice before the game, Adolfo took over at the quarterback position this week as the coaching staff tried to resolve some of the team’s late-season offensive struggles. “We tried to change up our offense a little bit, to get the ball in more people’s hands and get out of the pocket a little bit more,” Chiefs coach Dylan Everlith said. “[Adolfo] was very effective.” While Adolfo made only one completion for 22 yards, compared to Darrah’s 187 yards through the air, he led the Chiefs with 113 rushing yards, followed by Hunter Devins with 96. On the ground, the Red Storm were led by Ben Munn’s 137 yards. With the win, Saranac Lake advance to face AuSable Valley in for the Class C sectional championship at noon Saturday, at Plattsburgh High School. Bennett said his team knows they will have to respond to a talented Patriots offense to win the game. “We expect to see some dynamic players that are making plays all over the field,” Bennett said. The Red Storm were on the losing end of the regular-season matchup with the Patriots, and Brown said the team knows they need to avoid making the game harder for themselves with penalties. “That’s what we did in Ausable,” Brown said. “We shot ourselves in the foot. We’re the reason we lost that game. We killed ourselves, we self-destructed.” Bennett said his team’s ability to recognize and respond to those self-inflicted wounds would determine what kind of game it will be Saturday. “If we play mistake-free football, we feel good,” Bennett said. “If we don’t, we’ll be in a dog fight.” ■

Red Storm boys, girls clinch CVAC titles By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CLINTONVILLE | Last year, the Saranac Lake boys cross country team was the dominant force in the sport, winning the CVAC regular season title on their way to sweeping all the titles, including the Class C state championship. The girls wanted in on that feeling. With a 27-28 win over Saranac Oct. 22 at AuSable Valley, the Lady Red Storm clinched their first CVAC regular season title in 10 years, joining the boys team, who also secured a second straight league title. “We are pleased for both teams to clinch the CVAC regular season title,” said coach Bill Peer. ”For our girls it has been several years since winning the regular season title and we are glad to see their hard work pay off. The girl’s race with Saranac, the perennial CVAC power, was as close as they come.

“On the boys side our guys continue to compete and strive to get better, we are fortunate to have a boys team that works so hard,” Peer added. “It’s good for our team,” said Katie Samperi. “We watched the boys win last year and we wanted to have that feeling for ourselves so badly.” “It definitely took a lot of learning to work with all of the runners on our team and this is a breakthrough for us, but we cannot let down,” added Gwen Mader. “Bill and I have been working with the team for quite a number of years, Saranac is a really good team and they are always top competition, so it is very nice to win this regular season title for the first time in 10 years,” said coach Joe Garso. “Peru is no slouch, either. They are a solid team and we cannot let our guard down at any time. We have to maintain what we have got.” In the girls race, the Red Storm also scored a 20-41 win over AuSable Valley, while Saranac scored wins of

19-42 over AuSable Valley and 18-43 over Lake Placid. The Patriots scored a 27-28 win over Lake Placid. Rachael Woodruff of Saranac led all runners to the line in a time of 19:30, followed by Lily Potthast of AuSable Valley in 19:56).

REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE

CANDIDATES ** * JOE PROVONCHA ESSEX COUNTY CLERK

How quickly the time goes! In the four years since I was last elected County Clerk, so much has changed within the Office. Our records are now available online, we have implemented electronic filing and recording, and we have been working steadily to preserve the historic permanent documents in our care. I am pleased to report that the County Clerk’s Office has successfully written six consecutive New York State Archives grant applications, resulting in $274,000 for records management projects. In October 2018, I had the privilege of accepting, on behalf of the Office, the NYS Archives William H. Kelly Award for excellence in local government archival program development. Public feedback on our DMV Offices is very positive. We are known for our friendly workers and short wait times. The Ticonderoga Satellite Office remains popular. Customers travel from all over the North Country to do their DMV transactions with us. After 7 terms as County Clerk, I still enjoy coming to work. I look forward to my interactions with you, the residents of Essex County, and there are several projects that I would like to see through to completion. I believe I can continue to offer something positive and productive to Essex County and its constituents. I am, therefore, respectfully asking for your vote on November 5th.

THIS IS THE ENDORSED LEADERSHIP TEAM ASKING FOR YOUR VOTE ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5TH. THE POLLS ARE OPEN IN YOUR TOWN FROM 6:00 AM UNTIL 9:00 PM. EARLY VOTING is also available this year at the ESSEX COUNTY PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING, 702 STOWERSVILLE RD., LEWIS NY. THE BUILDING IS ACCESSIBLE TO ALL VOTERS. VOTING HOURS ARE AS FOLLOWS: Saturday, October 26: 9:00am - 2:00pm • Sunday, October 27: 9:00am - 2:00pm • Monday, October 28: 12:00pm - 8:00pm Tuesday, October 29: 9:00am - 5:00pm • Wednesday, October 30: 12:00pm - 8:00pm • Thursday, October 31: 9:00am - 5:00pm Friday, November 1: 9:00am - 5:00pm • Saturday, november 2: 9:00am - 2:00pm • Sunday, November 3: 9:00am - 2:00pm VOTERS CASTING A BALLOT DURING EARLY VOTING WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE ON ELECTION DAY.

SHAUN GILLILLAND

JAY RAND

WILLSBORO

Under Shaun’s leadership the following was accomplished or about to be: $90,000 in grants to renovate the Adsit cabin, the oldest log cabin in America on a foundation; $600,000 grant and a $1.7 million interest free loan which rebuilt the sewer plant with new technology; bringing new businesses to town; obtained private donations plus a $30,000 grant to build pavilion for our Farmer’s Market; $60,000 for our waterfront revitalization; $80,000 to make Historical Museum repairs and $100,00 for replacement of our Veteran’s memorial. All done with grants, hard work and the sweat of town employees - not a lot of tax dollars. I’m asking for your vote on Tuesday, November 5th So you and I can continue future improvements and critical needs. Thank you.

CLAYTON BARBER CHESTERFIELD

After serving as town councilman for six years, I wanted to continue my service by running for town supervisor. During my tenure, I have been effective in improving the town water and rebuilding the Auger Pond dam. As co-chair of our Hometown Hero Banner program, I’m still excited to be part of a program recognizing our citizens’ who serve and have served. I have served as the exalted ruler of the Keeseville Elks Lodge and have enjoyed working with the Keeseville Business Association. I will work hard to bring more revenue into our area to keep taxes down. I will work hand-in-hand with the ECIDA to revitalize the attention needed to our vacant commerce park. We must stabilize taxes and improve the economy so we can keep a workforce and allow our seniors to keep their homes.

LAKE PLACID

Born and raised in Lake Placid. Graduate of Lake Placid Schools and University of Colorado. Member US Ski Jumping Olympic Team. If Elected, I will dedicate myself Fulltime as North Elba Supervisor. My priorities are: Maintain and improve our quality of life in our neighborhoods for our residents and children, protect our environment and water quality, promote affordable housing for longtime and future residents, support our First Responders, Public Safety Officials, School District and Educators, Maintain North Elba’s important role with Essex County Board of Supervisors. Married for 42 years with 3 daughters and 6 Grandchildren. Community Experience: North Elba Town Board since 1988. Deputy Supervisor for 3 supervisors. Served on multiple Town Board Committees. Retired from ORDA after 32 years.

MARGARET “MEG” WOOD SCHROON LAKE

My career includes being a longtime business owner and volunteer in community organizations; 113th Assembly District director; executive director of High Peaks Hospice and Schroon town council member. This is a career in management, constituent services and working together with various organizations to enhance our quality of life-a career of constant commitment. Success for Schroon can be achieved through regular assessment of community assets and needs, as well as long range planning and fiscal responsibility. To further our goals, I will work with the public, town employees and council to review, and update as needed, our town policies and regulations. I will work to keep our needs before the Albany lawmakers and expand our economic base as we protect our natural assets.

ROY HOLZER

EMILY PHILLIPS

WILMINGTON

At age 54, Roy Holzer is running for Wilmington Town Supervisor. A native of his community, Holzer was first elected to Town Councilman at the age of 18. He served in that capacity for 12 years, 2 years as deputy Supervisor and 4 years as Town Supervisor. He is a honoree member of the Wilmington Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad having volunteered for over 25 years. Roy has always been part of his community. He and his wife Becky owned and operated the Little Super Market for over 22 years. “I hope my record speaks for itself” Holzer stated. All things Wilmington has always been my number one priority. After 20 years off from elected office, I am ready to serve again if the Wilmington Voters so choose.

ESSEX

As Supervisor for the Town of Essex it will be my priority to bridge the divisions in our community by leading a fiscally responsible, transparent and openminded government that is fair and consistent to all. It is critical that our Essex Hamlet water treatment plant be completed in a timely manner that has the least financial impact on property owners in the district. Important to me is prioritizing families by creating an environment that incentivizes affordable housing and job opportunities as well as providing resources to support the healthy growth of our children. Children that one day will heed the call to come home and reinvest in their community, as I have. Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
