LAKE PLACID — The National Volunteer Week Committee is now accepting nominations for North Elba/Lake Placid's 2013 Distinguished Volunteer(s). National Volunteer Week began in 1974 when President Richard Nixon signed an executive order establishing the week as an annual celebration of volunteering. The Town of North Elba and the Village of Lake Placid will both sign proclamations declaring the week of May 12-18, as National Volunteer Week, an event that celebrates and thanks one of the communities’ most valuable assets; its volunteers. The National Volunteer Week Committee is planning a celebration on Saturday, May 18, with a tree planting ceremony in honor of all community volunteers followed by a ceremony and reception recognizing all of the nominees and naming of the 2013 Distinguished Volunteer of the Year. The Committee is now accepting nominations from any individual or organization for this award, and nominations must be received by Wednesday, May 1. Any previous candidates may be re-nominated. A Distinguished Volunteer award will be given in recognition of a lifetime of activity and effort on behalf of the Town of North Elba and/or the Village of Lake Placid. Volunteers do not have to reside in North Elba/Lake Placid but the Organization that they have been nomi-

News good at Adk. Regional Airport By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com HARRIETSTOWN — The Adirondack Regional Airport in Harrietstown has had a good year, according to manager Corey Hurwitch. Hurwitch said the airport has been very active with commercial service, private usage and military usage, which all leads to more spending at the runway’s pumps. “We focused on increasing our fuel sales and that has been the biggest thing this year because we have been able to increase our fuel sales,” Hurwitch said. “We need to work to become a little bit more self sustained and a little less reliant on the tax payers.” Hurwitch said that with their commercial partner, Cape Air, service continues to expand.

Local officers train in Lake Placid By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — Two officers stood next to the men’s bathroom, weapons drawn. One slowly moved out around the corner, looking down the hallway for an active shooter. The other stood behind him, ready to move. As one, the two officers moved from room to room,

making sure each was clear. Eventually, they came upon a room with people, and the sound of gunfire erupted. The sequence of events was part of two days of intensive training March 20-21 at a former office complex in Lake Placid held for local New York State Police, Sheriff’s departments, municipal police and DEC law enforcement, among others.

“This has been in the planning stages for several months, and our major was very happy to host the training here,” Lt. Patrick Ryan, Assistant Zone III Commander for NYSP Troop B in Lewis, said. “We were very fortunate to find a place like this to hold this very dynamic and focused training.” “The fact that they brought all of these resources up here

for local departments was really great,” Tupper Lake Police Officer Wesley Hoyt said. “I do not think that I have received training like this since I was in the service.” Ryan said that the active shooter training had been offered for the past three years, however, those interested in attending had to travel to Albany or further to participate.

Ian Pounds to speak at Adirondack Center for Writing SARANAC LAKE — Join the Adirondack Center for Writing in welcoming a man who has sailed around the world, homesteaded on a deserted Alaskan island, and studied Elizabethan Literature – Ian Pounds. More recently, Pounds spent four years (and counting) teaching orphans in Afghanistan. He’ll present a creative monologue on Thursday April 18 at the Pendragon Theatre in Saranac Lake, including music, short video, and striking images of his volunteer work in Kabul. Admission is only $5 and free for students. Pounds will recount the humorous and inspiring story of his solo journey to Afghanistan as a response to a splintered life, landing him as the only westerner in an orphanage in Kabul. After four years teaching over 300 boys and girls representative of all regions and races, Pounds gives unique insight to the people and the country of America's longest conflict. Ultimately this is the tale of how, in living among children of war a man discovers how truly a land, its people and a broken heart can become Undestroyed.

That’s 480 seconds, so if we wait for more people to show up on scene valuable time is lost, so now we focus on the first two officers that arrive.” A total of 58 officers attended the training, which included NYSP, Lake Placid Police, Saranac Lake Police, Tupper Lake Police, Plattsburgh Police, DEC Law Enforcement, St. Lawrence County Sheriff ’s Department and Tribal Police, among others.

SARANAC LAKE — Community members will again have a chance to vote on the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival theme this year, as Winter Carnival Committee members Wednesday, March 20 chose five potential theme ideas for 2014. Since the end of the 2013 Carnival, Committee members collected dozens of theme ideas, some that were resubmitted from past years and others that were collected fresh from the community this year. With each member casting three votes, five theme ideas rose to the top. In alphabetical order, they are: Adirondack Fiesta, Age of Aquarius (1960s), Ancient Egypt, Celtic Carnival, and Wizards & Dragons in the Mountains. Those interested in voting for their favorite theme from this list can either contact a Committee member with their selection or submit a vote on the Winter Carnival Facebook page or through the contact section on the Carnival’s website saranaclakewintercarnival.com. It is also tradition in Saranac Lake for readers of the Adirondack Daily Enterprise to vote for their favorite theme in an online poll at adirondackdailyenterprise.com. The Winter Carnival Committee will use the poll results to make its final decision on the 2014 Winter Carnival theme. The dates of the poll have not yet been chosen. “This year, the community suggested more than 50 theme ideas that came into the Committee through Facebook, emails and conversations,” said newly elected Committee Chairman Eric Foster. “The enthusiasm and imagination were terrific. It was a challenge to narrow the list down. We would like to get the community's view on their favorite for 2014.” The votes will be then tallied for the Committee’s April 17 meeting at the high school, where members will make a final decision. The 2014 Winter Carnival will take place Jan. 31 to Feb. 9.

Canada’s border policy Holy Days still relevant T should be revisited W

e all make mistakes. Sometimes, they can cost us money, a job, or even earn us time in jail. As individuals, we can learn from those mistakes, smooth over the rough patch our life has become, and move on to become positive forces within our communities. In all but the most extreme circumstances, our society makes allowances for such things. We live and we learn. Now, try explaining that to a border control officer on the way to Montreal with a mini van full of family members looking forward to spending a day at the Biodome. Chances are, if you have had more than two arrestable offenses in your lifetime you'll be making a quick U-turn back onto I-87 and will soon find yourself discussing other options with your perturbed family. This is a familiar scenario in the North Country, one that is as frustrating as it is puzzling. If you haven't heard this one before, take note—if you have committed two arrestable offenses in your lifetime, you can be denied access to Canada. Some offenses, like a DUI, a lesser form of a DWI in New York State, only take one strike before you’re out. Canada has a deal with the U.S. that allows its officers access to U.S. databases; specifically, arrest records. Some infractions, like driving while under the influence, are considered serious crimes in Canada. On the surface, it doesn't seem so bad. They're just trying to keep criminals at bay, right? But what about the man who was a hellion in college, and was arrested for defacing a street sign one night, and for getting into a bar fight another. Sure, those things should be punished, but there is a line between scofflaw and malefactor. Let's fast forward 20 years. That same hellion is now married, the head of a company, has two children he’s now getting ready to put through college, and is

an active member of his community, the same one he raised a ruckus in as a 20something. Is he not redeemed? At what point should someone's dues be paid? The DUI issue recently came up at a press conference held at the North Country Chamber of Commerce to discuss the economic relationship between the United States and Canada. It was a cheery affair, complete with resplendent hope for co-operation and the economic growth of both countries. Companies will transcend the border, jobs will be created and we’ll all live happily together. But there's a hitch. If a company from Canada is built in Plattsburgh and requires its workers to be trained in Canada, those who can't cross the border are out of luck. There are ways around this, but the process can take up to a year to complete. To simply apply for an application to be granted entry can cost between $200 and $1,000, and there is no guarantee you will be allowed into Canada afterward. In some corners of the North Country, there is some animosity toward Canadians. It’s been mentioned in editorials throughout the region, and it was brought up at the chamber meeting. Perhaps making it easier to get into the country would be a logical first step to improving understanding for one another. Both countries would benefit from easier access, not only in tourist dollars, but in terms of the newly proposed job growth, too. We are not trivializing the seriousness of drinking and driving, but it does seem prudent for Canada to begin rethinking its “no tolerance” policy. It will only serve to strengthen the ties between two countries whose ties are already strong. Drawing the line at felonies is a better way to keep the criminals out while still allowing those of us who have made a mistake to get on with our lives and get into Canada.

here seems to be so much head shaking craziness all around us these days. From senseless shootings and violence, out of control politics, over the top excesses that challenge others to push the envelope to even further extremes, to worries about unmanned drones flying overhead and home appliances spying and sharing valuable personal information. So many of today’s modern creations boggle the mind, even from just a short while back in time. But are we using them for the betterment of our society or are they becoming the catalyst that drive us to these wild extreme measures? I can remember a time not long ago when life was slower and it seemed as though the majority of the country shared similar values. Collectively the nation knew right from wrong and in doing so kept us focused on life’s daily challenges, family and a shared sense of community. These values are still on display today but we also know that many among us are afraid to speak out and express their views for fear of retaliation or humiliation. As a nation we’ve become more driven by a vocal minority then a silent majority. The computing power of today’s cheapest smart phone far exceeds the computing power used by the NASA space capsule that first put man on the Moon. It seems the power and capabilities of these little devices are increasing so rapidly one has to wonder where it will lead. And are these technological marvels becoming too smart and too controlling over our lives? Technology and its inventions can be a distraction that changes the focus of human purpose. I’m concerned that many of the problems facing society today are driven by a material belief that is placing greater faith in human self reliance than placing our trust in God, the true creator and supreme being. As we prepare for the celebrations of Passover and Easter, once again we see government entities opting for political correctness by removing the word Easter from traditional celebrations in schools and communities. They claim to be doing so out of fear of offending but in reality it is fear of lawsuits by a small but vocal minority. Like Christmas, Easter has become increasingly commercialized. But by removing

the true meaning, we allow the holiday to become nothing more than a Hallmark event. We no longer collectiveDan Alexander ly look for divine Thoughts from support and no Behind the Pressline longer speak out when obvious actions erode the origins of our nation built on the freedoms endowed by our creator. I wonder if in time, as technology expands and we become more and more reliant on technology, will it be used wisely? Can we maintain control over the information or will it be used to negatively affect society? I also wonder if something as remarkable as the smart phone is becoming the golden idol of choice in society today? Are we becoming seduced by its capabilities, its dynamic intelligence and vibrant display? People seem so captivated by their phones today they simply can’t put them down. The smart phone allure is so powerful it is having serious effects on both workplace productivity and personal relationships. Now don’t get me wrong, I too am a smart phone user but as this technology advances we must not let it be the central point around which our lives revolve. Personal relationships, love of family and neighbor and the recognition of our creator must remain paramount in our lives or the problems that plague our society will only grow worse. Our ability to solve interpersonal disagreements won’t happen when our mind, eyes and thumbs are focused on the cyber world, a capable distraction, but never the end all. Faith-based democracies, like the United States and Israel, are places where the freedom to practice and express ones faith has flourished and survived, because they’ve remained true to their founding origins. These are important facts to keep in mind this week as we celebrate the holy events of Passover and Easter, keeping in mind their historical relevance, which is very much still a priority in our lives today.

A day at the Adk Sportsmans Dinner

Diversity of wildlife depends on a diversity of forests, fields, and weedy edges, which provide a variety of habitats. Photo by Rich Redman

Farmers: True caretakers of the land

s has been my custom in recent years, I spent the third Saturday of March at the Adirondack Sportsmans Dinner in Schroon Lake. The annual gathering, which is hosted annually by a group of local ministries, continues to draw a diverse group of sportsmen and women, and similar outdoor travelers from all walks of life. Despite an initial impression that I had stumbled upon a redneck reunion, I soon realized the attendees spanned the spectrum of North Country folks ranging from loggers and carpenters to school teachers and physicians. A similarly eclectic mix could likely be found sharing similar stories in any local bar room, ball field, firehouse or at the local church following a Sunday service. As the guests began to pile out of their old, rusted pickup trucks and similarly battered, 4WD vehicles, it was obvious that camo caps were the most common fashion accessory, while blue jeans with the faded circle of a ‘chew can’ on the back pocket ran a close second. Their vehicles soon filled the parking lots, and it was obvious they all shared a common thread. I began reading bumper stickers, and it was apparent a sea of Red had flooded into a Blue state. God, guns and strong beliefs about both the NRA and the APA, were the most common theme. They were friends and neighbors from across the North Country, and even though most of them had never met before, they shared backgrounds and participated in similar pursuits. They followed the same traditions; whether man, woman or child, and they were united by the shared commonality of enjoying an outdoor life. By the day’s end, many memories were made and friendships renewed. I’m glad I was invited, it sure was a nice segue to spring. After sharing the day with a group of old friends that I hadn’t even met yet, I traveled further down the Northway to attend the annual rendezvous of the NYS Outdoor Guides Association. The rendezvous provides an opportunity for prospective guides to take the NYSDEC guides license exam, and it also provides further opportunities for training and certification for member guides. Like the old trapper ’s Rendezvous of the Rockies, the current day gatherings provide member guides with the opportunity to share the company of like-minded professionals, and to compare notes, tips and tall tales. As usual, there were more tall tales than truths, and plenty of laughs. However, I was also involved in a more serious discussion concerning a response I had sent to a request the association had received for a guide. Earlier in the year, a gentleman had sent a request to members of the association seeking the services of a licensed guide to assist him in achieving the goal of becoming an Adirondack ’46er. Although he had already climbed several of the high peaks, he wanted to hire a guide to help him tackle some of the more remote peaks which require a base camp. His request described a desire to find a competent, experienced guide to help him achieve his goal. I had considered responding to his request, until I discovered the caveat he had included, which read simply, “and please, no hunters.” I reread his request, which was pretty simply and straight forward. Hunters need not reply. He wanted a competent woodsman, or woman to accompany him up and down the High Peaks. But, if the competent guide also happened to be a hunter, then he was for some reason, no longer safe or competent company. It was the first time I had experienced discrimination based exclusively on my choice of recreational activities. It didn’t sting, but it was an insult to all fellow hunters. It wasn’t a matter of race, or creed, or religion, or any other persuasion. I was unqualified simply because I hunted. Needless to say, I responded to the request in rather firm terms, and I asked fellow members to consider the obvious discrimination. I also questioned the board if the association would be willing to accept an equally discriminatory request for a guide who was not gay, disabled, Irish, blind or blond. They had to consider the situation from a different frame of mind. Should a potential customer be allowed to dictate the particular lifestyle pursuits of a potential guide, which are irrelevant to the individual‘s skills in the woods?

y career with the Soil Conservation Service, now renamed the Natural Resources Conservation Service, spanned 27-plus years and three counties; Washington, Clinton and Essex. I have come to know most of the farmers in the By Rich Redman Lake Champlain Valley, and many are personal friends. I have the deepest respect for their way of life; they are the true caretakers of the land! Over the years, I have heard all the horror stories about hunters on their property, such as poaching, damaged fences, gates left open, garbage left behind, torn up wet fields by trucks, and trees cut down, so they could get a better view from their tree stand. And some hunters wonder why they can’t get permission to hunt farmland. This is my view of farm life: Spring is near, so planting season will be under way on nearby farms. The moldboard plow, chisel plow or other implements of tillage will be out scratching the earth’s back. Mechanical horse power supplied by diesel or in some cases, the real deal horse power of the Belgium will be the beast of burden. Once disked, the planter will do its job, placing the seed into the soil. Smooth as glass fields will be planted to corn, alfalfa, soybeans and grass hay crops. Apple trees have been winter pruned and fertilized for a new season’s bounty. Land management practices such as manure spreading, fertilization, insect and weed control, are all part of the plan. The apple grower must have a quality product to sell. For dairy and beef operations, the goals are quality crops for milk and beef production. Natures’ curse of frost, floods, drought and pests, merge with humanities curse: taxes, breakdowns and labor shortages to plague the farmer’s ability to survive. Feeds must be stored and fed out all winter long to produce the milk, cheese, yogurt, grains, vegetables, sweet corn, apples, berries, and juicy steaks we all enjoy. A year’s worth of crops must be put up in our short growing season, so the farmer can earn a year’s worth of income. It all hinges on sunlight, soil, moisture, nutrients, animal health, mechanical skills and a farmer’s skill at multitasking all of the variables. Livelihoods depend on the heartbeat of the growing season. The wildlife, harvests the same quality feed as the dairy, beef cow or human. It’s not rocket science. It’s quality feed! Mature grasses, legumes and grains all produce seeds. These crops feed the birds. Weeds left along field edges provide seeds for birds like the Snow Bunting which migrates south to our area to spend the winter. Is it any wonder the wildlife population near active farms is always higher. Food is the key. In addition to feed, there is cover. Hedgerows, brush piles, stream beds, woodlands and wetlands all provide habitat that is managed by the local farmer. Woodlands produce acorns, tree seeds, stump sprouts and growing root suckers. Young tender shoots of saplings such as red maple, sugar maple and oak all provide browse. Aspen buds feed grouse while wild apples provide high energy feed. Like two habitat gears meshing, cropland and woodlots provide the diversity for many species. Wildlife, such as squirrels, deer, turkeys and ruffed grouse are more plentiful on managed lands than unmanaged forested areas. Saw logs for lumber, pulp for paper, chips for bio-energy, fire wood, maple syrup, and wildlife habitat are all produced by managed forested acres. Working landscapes provide food for farm and forest wildlife, along with the economic ability and opportunities for families to thrive. So, the next time you hunt a woodlot, fish a brook, or flush a bird from an open grassy field, think about the family that owes its livelihood to that land. Many farmers I know would let folks hunt the property, but they should be given the respect of being asked first. Hunting their land is a privilege given to you by the farmer, so help them out. Ask if you can contribute to buy some bags of corn, seed or fertilizer. Ask about a hunting lease, and paying the hunting lease insurance costs. Earn the privilege of hunting the caretakers land. This column is dedicated to the memory of Ralph and Cecile Evens, the heavenly caretakers of Windy Valley Farm.

Conservation

Conversations

Snow cover makes for an easy portage when hauling a guideboat into the ponds, early in the season. To the gentleman’s credit, he realized the serious issues that were raised due to the nature of his request. In addition, he had the intestinal fortitude to contact me directly to discuss the matter, which proved to be an eye opening experience for both of us.

National survey of hunters and anglers My limited experience with discrimination, prompted me to consider whether anglers and hunters should be considered ‘minorities. According to a recent National Survey, outdoorsmen and women tend to be Republican and conservative voters, who view conservation as important as gun rights. They express support and concern about a number of conservation issues including access to public lands, global warming solutions, clean water protections and protecting our children’s future. Although more than 75 percent of the nation’s population supports hunting, less than 7 percent of the population actually gets out in the field. The hunting population is heavily male (89 percent), white (only 6 percent of hunters declared themselves nonwhite) and educated, with 53 percent having attended college. A recent US Fish and Wildlife Service survey, which is conducted every five years indicates the number of hunters and anglers age 16 and older rose from 33.9 million in 2006 to 37.4 million in 2011. Nationally, 33.1 million people fished while 13.7 million hunted. The national survey reaffirms that hunters and anglers are still a small portion of the overall population, about 6 percent nationally, about 38 million Americans hunt and fish annually. According to the most recent survey, hunting is most popular among those aged 45 to 54 (3.1 million), closely followed by the next age group, 55-64 (2.8 million). Together, those two groups make up 43 percent of the U.S. hunting population. The heavy representation of older men does not bode well for hunting’s future. Hunters and anglers favor restoring Clean Water Act protections to wetlands and waterways in order to protect our health and important fish and wildlife habitat. They also agree that children are not spending enough time outdoors. Which creates a problem and a threat to wildlife conservation in America. Unfortunately, more than two out of three sportsmen now live in metropolitan areas, where their children grow up less familiar with firearms, or fishing poles, and far removed from daily contact with field and stream. As a result, they are often uncomfortable with the pursuit of game as sport. According to the survey, 47 percent believe that gun rights are important, but conservation is just as important. Another 37 percent believe that gun rights are the most important issue facing sportsmen, while 13 percent believe that gun rights are not as important as conservation issues. Hunters and anglers want public lands protected and they want access to public lands that to date have been inaccessible and they want the government to take their needs and desires into account when issuing oil and gas leases. Outdoor recreation in this country contributes $730 billion a year to the U.S. economy. These hunters and anglers believe global warming is occurring and believe we have a moral responsibility to confront global warming to protect our children’s future. They also believe that global warming is a cause of the recent hot temperatures we have experienced. From the point of safety, it is important to note firearms are involved in less than 1 percent of all accidental fatalities. More Americans are killed in accidents involving vending machines than guns. Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.

Respect decision, locals To the Valley News: Since the Article 78 lawsuit was filed against the APA one year ago by PROTECT the Adirondacks, Sierra Club, Thompson, and Harrison regarding the Adirondack Club permit, people throughout the Adirondack Park felt that the Plaintiffs actions were frivolous and selfishly driven. So, it was rewarding to see that Supreme Court Judge Platkin had similar feelings in his ruling issued last Thursday. Even some of the Plaintiffs members have questioned whether their dollars are being wasted on something so frivolous. It was also fulfilling that much of what Judge Platikin wrote could be viewed as a certain degree of chastising of the Plaintiffs. Stating that, “the untailored and excessively broad nature of the (Plaintiffs) disclosure request, and the substantial delay, expense and other burdens attendant to the requested disclosure, considerations of reason and good sense compel the denial of this motion.” In other words, your actions have no merit. But, don't let it surprise any of us, that while Tupper Lake and surrounding region suffer greater economic difficulties at the hands of PROTECT and the Sierra Club, they will argue that they have the best interest of the Park and its people, and will look at appealing the decision or taking a different tact. What they attempt to prove through the numerous lawsuits they enjoy filing, only shows that they have no

interest in building common ground for the entire Park ecosystem. They lack credibility, so they attempt to use the court system to bully their philosophical positions onto the very Agency responsible for Park oversight. The actions of these groups, and their supporting members, has shown their selfish motives have nothing to do with the environment, and will continue to further divide the interests of the Adirondack Park.

ACT. I agree with those that claim there are provisions of the SAFE Act that are ill conceived and unclear, but I also think that it includes provisions that are reasonable. The Board’s resolution in favor of repeal rather than amendment of the SAFE ACT, its invocation of the Second Amendment in support of repeal, and the Board’s failure to offer suggested changes, perpetrates the unfounded notion that all gun control laws are a violation of the Second Amendment. This is a point I tried to make, unsuccessfully, at the meeting: The U.S. Supreme Court’s gun control decisions of 2008 and 2010 made it clear that the Second Amendment is “not a right to keep and carry any weapons whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose.” As one expert notes, “the American right to bear arms has alway coexisted with gun regulation. The Founding Fathers had gun laws so restrictive that today’s NRA leaders would never support them.” Justice Scalia’s majority opinion upholding an individual right to bear arms was limited to the facts of the case: the use of a handgun for self protection in the home. Lower court decision since the Supreme Court’s decisions have upheld many different gun control laws. In his nuanced opinion, Justice Scalia noted that Supreme Court’s opinion should not cast doubt on a wide range of gun laws. I am a strong supporter of hunting as a sport and as a way of controlling species overpopulation. The County’s repeal resolution draws no distinction between the legitimate interest of hunters, and those who hold the radical view, as a number of the audience members asserted, that the Second Amendment bars any restriction on the ownership and use of firearms including bans on weapons whose purposes are not for hunting but to kill humans.

Biologists to speak at Paul Smith’s PAUL SMITHS — Two biologists who discovered a new species of primate in the Congo will speak at the Paul Smith's College Fisheries and Wildlife Seminar Series, which will feature two talks next week. Terese and John Hart will give a talk Friday, March 29, titled "Discovery and protection of Okapi, Bonobo, and a new species of monkey in a central Congolese forest." "Their discovery is remarkable," says Prof. Eric Simandle. "It is rare to find a new animal species, rarer yet to find a new vertebrate species, and virtually unheard of to discover a new species of primate." Their talk will focus on conservation of the species including threats, and community-based conservation. Two other Fisheries and Wildlife Seminar talks are scheduled this semester: – Nicholas Gotelli, Friday, April 5, "Specimen-based modeling, stopping rules and the extinction of the ivory-billed woodpecker." – Kenneth Nussear, Friday, April 19, "Conservation of the Threatened Desert Tortoise: a Multidisciplinary Approach." The seminars, which are free and open to the public, take place from 10:10-11 a.m. in the Freer Auditorium.

Airport Continued from page 1 “Cape Air has continued on and ever since they have been here, they have increased their passengers,” he said. “We are working toward building more and more with them. The fourth and fifth flights that they offer during the summertime are un-subsidized so we are working more toward self substantiality.” Hurwitch added the military use of the airport has added to the air traffic. “Fort Drum was looking for a quiet airport where they will not interfere with other air traffic and there are no noise complaints,” he said. “Through that, we increased the amount of jet (fuel) sold to them by 50,000 gallons. We had a lot of Blackhawk helicopters come in for training. This was really a takeoff year for our partnership with the military.” The airport has also been a hub for charter flights. “We started off the year with some hockey charters for the Frozen Four in Lake Placid,” Hurwitch said. “It is good to get these in and to be a part of the major events in the area.” Along with increases to use, Hurwitch said the airport is always looking for funding lines and new partners to help with expansion.

BluSeed Continued from page 1 All ability levels are invited to discover a new, way to make linoleum prints. The silk cut technique is described as cutting through butter, the possibility of long, flowing organic lines, easy removal of large areas, easy stenciling, a variety of marks and no tension in the wrists or fingers. The silk-cut linoleum is imported from Australia. The cost of the workshop is $65/person and includes all materials. Space is very limited so you are encouraged to call ahead and reserve your spot. BluSeed Studios is also offering an “Open Studio Day” on Sunday, April 7, for the workshop participants. Interested participants can sign-up for a two-hour studio ses-
