PLATTSBURGH — The United Way of theAdirondack Region Inc. has officially begun its2010-11 fundraising campaign.

The nonprofit organization — which helpspartnering agencies in Clinton, Essex andFranklin counties — announced at its annualcampaign kick-off breakfast Sept. 16, it aims toraise $750,000.

John C. Bernardi, the nonprofit organization’sexecutive director, explained the amount reflectsboth a continued need throughout the regionand the inclusion of partnering agencies inFranklin County to be helped by the local Unit-ed Way.

“Our United Way is evolving. We’re growing,we’re evolving and we’re adapting,” saidBernardi. “If there was ever a time we needed toraise more money, now is the time.”

Kirk A. Stallsmith, general manager of thePlattsburgh Georgia-Pacific facility, who servesas chairperson of this year ’s United Wayfundraising campaign team, said he hopes tobuild on the success of last year ’s campaign,which raised $700,000 for the United Way’s morethan 30 partner agencies.

“We’re very blessed to have a group of peoplein the community with heart and commitment tothe community,” Stallsmith said of pastfundraising campaign supporters.

Though the local United Way now coversthree counties and is aiming to raise an addition-

al $50,000 this year, Stallsmith said he feels con-fident people will see the need and once againstep up to the plate to help.

“The challenge is there and I think we’re upto it,” he said.

Bernardi credited the work of the fundraisingcampaign for knocking on doors and asking peo-ple to dig a little deeper into their pockets thisyear to help the less fortunate through UnitedWay.

“There’s just a great deal of synergy and en-ergy and enthusiasm and it’s helped us be ableto reach out to places that we’ve not been able toreach before,” said Bernardi. “I think we’ve builta network that has been really productive for us.That is what makes the difference, people with-in organizations who are passionate about it andare willing to put time and effort into it. That’swhat makes the campaign successful.”

During the event, Bernardi announced thisyear ’s “pacesetters” — businesses and individ-uals who begin early fundraising efforts — whohave so far raised $164,719.84, bringing the cam-paign to 22 percent of its overall goal.

Bernardi said the money pledged so far is apromising sign of the campaign reaching its goaland building upon the more than 80,000 peoplethe United Way was able to help last year alone.

“It is a huge challenge and we’re counting onpeople throughout the region to step up to theplate,” said Bernardi. “And, at the end of the day,it doesn’t matter how much the dollar amountis. What matters most is how many people we’reable to impact in a positive way.

Those wishing to make contributions towardthe local United Way campaign may send dona-tions in care of United Way of the AdirondackRegion, 45 Tom Miller Road, Plattsburgh N.Y.12901. Donations may also be arranged througha payroll deduction, which may be arrangedthrough one’s employer.

PLATTSBURGH — The State Universityof New York at Plattsburgh’s student-runnewspaper, Cardinal Points, has earned aplace in the Associated Collegiate Press Hallof Fame.

The paper qualified for the honor by win-ning its 10th ACP All-American Award in an11-year span. An induction ceremony willbe held during the 89th annual NationalCollege Media Convention in Louisville,Ky., in October.

Also being honored at that event areSUNY Plattsburgh students Bradley Kastenof Hampton Bays, and Jameson Sempey ofRidge. They designed a two-page spreadabout international students that has be-come a Pacemaker finalist for infographicdesign.

This is another tremendous honor, saidCardinal Points advisor and Journalism De-partment chair Shawn Murphy, who calledthe Pacemaker the “Pulitzer of college me-dia.”

The All-American Award, the Hall ofFame placement and the Pacemaker nomi-nation are all part of a string of nationalnewspaper honors that began not long afterMurphy took over as newspaper advisor in1997.

SUNY Plattsburgh journalism alumnaJennifer Meschinelli remembers Murphy’searly days as advisor. She was the first Car-

dinal Points editor to work with him. “From the first moment he got here, he

said it was going to be an award-winningnewspaper,” said Meschinelli, who is nowthe special publications editor for the Press-Republican and an adjunct journalism lec-turer at the college. “It was a tall order.”

But, coupling these high expectationswith a lot of work evaluating student ef-forts, Murphy became the driving force be-hind these honors, said Meschinelli.

“Editors and staff have come and gone,but in the past 14 years there’s been one con-stant. That’s Shawn Murphy,” she said.

Murphy, on the other hand, credits hisstudents.

“This award is not my award; it belongsto every student-journalist whom I’ve hadthe pleasure of advising on Cardinal Pointssince I arrived in Plattsburgh in 1997,” Mur-phy said. “I am merely the coach on the side-lines who offers advice about how this Car-dinal Points team can improve their journal-istic game.”

With that thought in mind, Murphy saidof the award, “I was thrilled for all the stu-dent-journalists whom I have advised andwho produced not just a quality newspaperfor a campus audience, but a journalisticlegacy.”

BEEKMANTOWN — The efforts of ateacher in the Beekmantown Central SchoolDistrict have not gone unnoticed.

Sixth grade science teacher Colleen Pan-dolph of Peru has been selected as a finalistfrom New York State for the PresidentialAwards for Excellence in Mathematics andScience Teaching. Pandolph, who was nom-inated by former Beekmantown MiddleSchool principal Sue Coonrod, was selectedby a state selection committee of her peers.

The news was a pleasant surprise, saidPandolph, who has been teaching for theschool district for the past nine years.

“It’s quite an honor,” said the Ver-montville native and State University ofNew York at Plattsburgh graduate, “but Iwould rather bring recognition to the schoolthan myself. I have great colleagues, a greatteam of teachers I work with at the sixth

grade level. The entire middle school is sup-portive.”

Principal James Knight said he is proud ofPandolph’s accomplishment and the recog-nition which demonstrates the caliber ofteaching staff within the school district.

“Colleen is a perfect candidate for thislevel of recognition, due to her humble na-ture a dedication to students,” said Knight.“I am confident that an award of this mag-nitude is not something she ever sought af-ter as an educator, but it is the recognitionshe deserves as a teacher of high quality.”

Knight went on to say Beekmantown Mid-dle School benefits from the Pandolph’srecognition by “allowing the spotlight to bedrawn to one of its staff members who is atrue representation of the entire staff as awhole.”

Pandolph’s nomination will be reviewedby a national selection committee in Wash-ington, D.C. The committee will determinethe winner of the Presidential Award thiswinter.

MORRISONVILLE — Kevin Sharpis coming to the Clinton County Fair-grounds.

The nationally-recognized moti-vational speaker, entertainer and 20-year cancer survivor will make anappearance Sunday, Oct. 3, as athank you event from the Platts-burgh Relay for Life committee.Sharp was scheduled to be the sur-vivorship speaker at the Relay forLife event at the fairgrounds in June,but had to postpone due to a medicalsituation, said local Relay for Lifepublic relations representative Bon-nie L. Berry.

“He was supposed to come in forjust an hour,” Berry said of the Juneevent, “Eagle Country 97.5, Pepsi,and World Warehouse [and Distribu-tion] were the three who brought himin with contributions. But, now he’llbe coming here for a couple hours.”

“He said he would come back andhe’s coming back,” added Berry.

“This is wonderful.”The Oct. 3 event will be free of

charge to the community and includea performance from The Boobie Sis-ters, a breast cancer survivor troupe,and remarks from Relay for Lifechairman Mark Brown Jr. In additionto speaking and performing, Sharpwill be on-hand to sign autographs atthe event.

The people of the North Countryare to thank for another successfulyear of raising money for the Amer-ican Cancer Society through Relayfor Life, said Berry, adding to the im-portance of hosting the upcomingevent.

“We’re so grateful to our commu-nity for raising $231,000 for cancerresearch,” said Berry, who noted thatamount exceeded the committee’sgoal by $21,000. “That’s amazing tothink our small community raisedthat much money. The only waywe’re going to find a cure for canceris through research. And, our smallcommunity is making gains towardfinding that cure.”

It’s been said the best way to help theeconomy is often to shop locally. Thisidea has sparked a campaign known as

$25 on the 25th.The main goal of the campaign is to get peo-

ple to spend at least $25 in a locally shop orrestaurant this Saturday, Sept. 25.

The campaign originally began with theNew York Press Association in an effort to“create some excitement in downtownsacross the state,” according to NYPA execu-tive director Michelle Rea.

“Essentially the publishers came to theboard and talked about how downtown mer-chants and Main Street merchants have been

really suffering for quite some time and theyfelt the newspapers should do something,”said Rea. “To make citizens aware of how vi-tal the role is that downtown merchants playin distinguishing communities from one an-other.”

Rea explained NYPA felt that by newspa-pers banding together across the state, therewould be more publicity. To help spread theword, they teamed up with the New YorkState Economic Development Council and theNew York State Conference of Mayors to getthe campaign up and running.

“Statistically, it’s proven that if the localresidents support local businesses that thereis a benefit to the community and to the busi-nesses,” said Plattsburgh Mayor Donald M.Kasprzak. “I believe that the efforts by the lo-cal business community deserves as muchsupport as possible by the residents of the cityof Plattsburgh and I strongly urge and hopethat local residents support the local mer-chants as much as possible on the 25th andcontinue to support them throughout theyear.”

NYSEDC executive director Brian McMa-hon explained shopping local actually hasnumerous benefits.

“When we spend money in our communi-ty it comes back to us in the form of increasedsales tax dollars, which get reinvested backinto the community,” said McMahon. “But,

more importantly … I think it reintroducesand reacquaints the community with thequality and diversity of retail establishmentswithin their community.”

The diversity of the establishments is whatRea considers another important aspect of thecampaign.

“If we were all just big areas plastered withbig box stores and chain restaurants, Platts-burgh wouldn’t be any different than Albany,wouldn’t be any different than Syracuse,” shesaid. “A unique brand of merchandising andmenus and décor is what sets us each apartfrom one another.”

Economically, Rea broke down the differ-ence between money being spent at local mer-chants, compared to big box stores.

“If a person or a family spends $100 amonth with local merchants, $45 of that $100

stays local, circulating locally,” she ex-plained. “If that same family spends $100with a big box store, $14 of those dollars staylocal. So, the impact for not only the mer-chants themselves, but also the municipal ar-eas, in terms of payroll dollars recirculatingand whatnot, it’s huge, it’s really significant.

Rea said if people show enough support forthe project, NYPA hopes to have the cam-paign happen more than once a year.

“People need to remember that if you don’twant those stores to go missing or thoserestaurants to go missing, you need to sup-port them,” she said.

PLATTSBURGH — Karen Gaffney has al-ways believed there’s nothing she can’t do.Now, she can add swimming across LakeChamplain to her list of achievements.

Despite being born with Down syndrome, achromosomal disorder which affects hundredsof thousands of people in the United Statesalone, Gaffney has challenged herself to showpeople living with Down syndrome are able todo many of the same things people without thecondition can do. Her latest evidence came asshe stepped upon the shore of Plattsburgh CityBeach Sept. 18, after swimming more than 8.5miles across Lake Champlain from SouthHero, Vt., adding to her list of completedaquatic challenges that includes swimmingacross Lake Tahoe, Boston Harbor and theEnglish Channel.

“It was something new and different and Ilove doing something new and challenging,”said the 39-year-old Gaffney, who also suffersfrom hip dysplasia.

Escorted across the lake by a team of pacers— swimming alongside her and on kayak, boat

and jet skis — Gaffney completed her person-al challenge in less than six hours. However, itwas an easier challenge than her lifelong bat-tle to overcome the feeling of being different,she said.

When she addressed a crowd of more than1,200 people the following day at Melissa L.Penfield Park, during the 13th annual BuddyWalk, Gaffney spoke about how much more ofa challenge living with Down syndrome canbe.

“Classrooms, school hallways, cafeteriasand gyms can be pretty lonely places for peo-ple like me. Once we’re all out of school it canbe even lonelier,” she said. “I’d like to sit at atable in a cafeteria and have others sit downnext to me rather than pass me by or get upwhen I sit down. I would like to look up andsee a friendly smile rather than look up andsee someone look away.”

Though acceptance and understanding ofpeople living with Down syndrome hasgrown, there is still stigma in the world andignorance of the ability of someone with thedisorder. That’s one of the reasons Cindy Rotzorganizes the Buddy Walk each year with herhusband, Tracy, in honor of their son, Brett,who has Down syndrome. The Rotzes areworking to break down the negative barriersthat stand in the way of people like their son,Gaffney, and countless others.

“We want everyone to see their abilities, nottheir disabilities,” said Cindy Rotz. “It’s im-portant we bring people like Karen in to see allthe great things people with Down syndromeare able to do. Everyone can learn from her.”

“What Karen does shows people if you put

your mind to something and you work hard,regardless of who you are or what you have ordon’t have, you can persevere if you put thework in,” said Tracy Rotz. “She’s done a tonfor our walk and hopefully she’s brought moreattention [to Down syndrome] and has giventhem more understanding.”

The most important message Gaffney want-ed people to take home was physical differ-ences many often associate with Down syn-drome don’t define what someone with Downsyndrome can do or who they are, she said.

“I know on the outside we look different, wetalk differently, we walk differently. But, onthe inside, we’re more like you,” Gaffney toldthe crowd. “We want the same things you do.We want good friends. We want to belong. Justtaking a seat next to me can make a big differ-ence.”

“We all want to have friends to share thingswith, learn things from and blame things on,”she added, laughing. “So, you see, we areprobably more alike than we are different.”

Karen Gaffney gets assistance as she walks onto the shore of Plattsburgh City Beach Sept. 18 after completing aswim from South Hero, Vt., across Lake Champlain. Gaffney was the featured speaker at the 13th annual BuddyWalk the following day, focusing on how people with Down syndrome have the ability to do many great things.

PLATTSBURGH — Fifty-two-hun-dred rallies took place in 181 coun-tries last October to “inspire theworld to rise to the challenge of theclimate crisis.” On Sunday, Oct. 10,also known as 10/10/10, environ-mentalist Bill McKibben hopes theworld will continue to meet the chal-lenge.

McKibben, who created 350.org,visited the State University of NewYork at Plattsburgh Sept. 14 to lectureto a packed house the importance ofworking to change legislation thatwill hopefully save the planet.

350.org is an international cam-paign working to “unite the worldaround solutions to the climate cri-sis.” In other words, scientists be-lieve the safe limit of carbon dioxidein the atmosphere is 350 parts permillion. The figure is currently at 392.

During his lecture, McKibben ex-plained a paper came out from NASAscientist James Hansen and his teamwhich explained the idea of 350.

“’For the first time,’ they said, ‘We haveenough data to put a real numerical valueon our peril.’ They said, ‘If any amount of

carbon dioxide in the atmosphere exceeded350 parts per million was not compatiblewith the planet on which civilization devel-oped and to which life on earth is adapt,’”McKibben paraphrased. “It’s not some

problem for the future, it’s hap-pening right now. We are too highand that’s why the Arctic is melt-ing and Russia is catching on fireand Pakistan is drowning. There istoo much carbon in the atmos-phere.”

The current carbon dioxide inthe atmosphere has already in-creased the earth’s temperature byone degree from overconsumptionof coal, gas and oil, leading to themelting of the arctic.

“The temperature, in the courseof this century, will rise somethingon the border of five or six de-grees,” said McKibben. “If one de-gree is enough to melt the Arctic,we would be wise not to find outwhat five or six degrees will do.”

Working with six students fromMiddlebury College, McKibbenexplained during his lecture theyworked with people all around theworld to help get rallies to takeplace, in an effort to create politi-cal change.

According to 350.org, CNNcalled it “The most widespread day of polit-ical action in the planet’s history.”

Now, the creators of 350.org are takingthis year to encourage people to “get to

work.”On 10/10/10 McKibben said, “We’re

we’re holding not a global political rally likelast year, but a global work party, we’re call-ing it. All around the world people will bedoing interesting things — putting up solarpanels, digging community gardens, har-vesting community gardens, laying downbike paths.”

McKibben hopes at the end of the daypeople will then contact their political lead-ers and urge them to “hammer out some leg-islation.”

“It’s important to do it in October and itwill be important to do it for the next fewyears … to see if we can build a movementbig enough, angry enough sometimes, ur-gent enough, passionate enough, beautifulenough to wield some real power,” he said.

However, McKibben admitted it’s possi-ble there is nothing that can be done to makethe change.

“There are scientists who think that wehave waited too long to begin this task,” hesaid. “Clearly we’ve raised the temperatureof the earth one degree and there’s anotherdegree in the pipeline that we no longer cando much about with the carbon alreadyemitted. But, there’s a big difference be-tween two degrees and six degrees andthat’s the question we face, whether it willbe a difficult century, or an impossible one.”

Adrienne Dionne, pastry chef for DeLish by Irises Cupcake Bakeshopand Gourmet Deli, holds a plate of apple cider cupcakes in the shape ofapples. DeLish is set to open Friday, Oct. 1, at its location on City HallPlace.

BByy KKaatthheerriinnee CCrreeppeeaauuSpecial to Denton Publications

PLATTSBURGH — The long-await-ed opening of DeLish by Irises Cup-cake Bakeshop and Gourmet Deli willsoon be here.

DeLish is set to open Friday, Oct. 1,in the newly-renovated former Oasislocation next door to Irises Café andWine Bar on City Hall Place. When thevacancy occurred last winter, Irisesowner Carol McLean knew she couldpair the nationwide popularity of cup-cakes with the locally-loved confec-tions of Irises.

“They’re cupcakes. They’re fun. It’sa feel-good business,” said McLean.“And, it’s really worthwhile seeingpeople smile when they see all the dif-ferent cupcakes.”

One of McLean’s staff, pastry chefAdrienne Dionne, has been using herbaking degree from the AmericanCulinary Institute at Hyde Park to cre-ate delicious desserts for the staff andpatrons of Irises for the past two years.Dionne’s cupcake creativity is one ofthe main reasons behind McLean’s de-cision to open a bakeshop right nextdoor.

While the logo cupcakes are the“stars of the show,” McLean knows theimportance of offering variety. The

menu at DeLish also includes pastriesof all sorts, freshly-baked bread,breakfast pizzas, gourmet deli sand-wiches, paninis, and salads. The drinkmenu is simple, but superior, with asampling of locally-roasted coffee andloose leaf teas. The weekend menuwill feature select gluten-freedesserts. Seasonal offerings will alsohave a presence on the menu. For theharvest season, for example, Dionnehas been developing an apple cidercupcake.

Dionne, another fan of variety, hasno shortage of cupcake flavor combi-nations, nor any shortage of cupcaketesters. The bakeshop manager andhead baker has been hard at work, try-ing new flavors for her signaturebaked good, of which the staff at Iris-es has very willingly sampled.

Some favorites? A classic choice, thechocolate peanut butter cupcake, withpeanut butter frosting; a twist on aseemingly simple idea, the almond joycupcake, which uses a creamy almondfilling; and after-dinner cocktail vari-eties.

“My favorite is the margarita cup-cake,” admits McLean, which featuresa tequila syrup-soaked lime-flavoredcake.

The kitchen will be kept running byDionne and an assistant baker, while

patrons will be able to enjoy brunchand dessert items straight from thekitchen in the cozy 12-seated diningarea or grab a breakfast sandwich togo from the deli case. McLean hopes toopen a pantry from which customerscan browse and shop. The pantry,which will occupy the space betweenIrises and DeLish, will stock interna-tional specialty foods, such as hard tofind cooking ingredients for the ad-venturous baker.

“[The pantry] complements thebusiness because it has products wealready use, like gourmet and uniqueproducts. It comes as second nature tous to use them as a retail items,” ex-plains McLean.

In addition to the expansion plansof the bakery and pantry, DeLish willalso allow for outdoor seating duringthe summer and fall of next year.

DeLish will aim to offer some tastefor every taste, and even if customersaren’t able to stop by their downtownlocation, DeLish will cater nearbyevents with breakfast and lunch menuitems. The expansive menu will beavailable on-line soon, attached to theIrises Café Web site.

The business may be reached at 324-4100.

HEMMINGFORD, Que. — The AlainFortin Foundation is something CherylFortin wishes would never have to have beenestablished, but it’s an organization that’sdone much good in the Hemmingford com-munity for the past 15 years.

The foundation was named after her broth-er-in-law whose life was lost in a tragic boat-ing accident on Lake Champlain in 1995.However, rather than let his memory fade,his family decided to establish the founda-tion with a purpose of helping his hometownof Hemmingford.

“Alain was very interested in helping theyoung and the old,” said Fortin. “The ex-tremes of the community. The year before hedied, he was actually standing outside — andit was one of the worst winter days — ring-ing the bell for the Salvation Army in Hem-mingford on a blustery, wintry day. We wantto continue to carry forward things he’s donein the past like that.”

The main way Alain’s family has been ableto do that has been to host a special golf tour-nament each year at the Hemmingford GolfClub. The one-club tournament — whichchallenges golfers to use one golf club

throughout the 18-hole match — was thekind of game Alain enjoyed, said Fortin.

“Alain would get together with friendsand they would play with one club the entiregame and see how well they did,” recalledFortin. “It was just for fun.”

“I’ve played it that way a few times and it’sdefinitely a challenge,” she added, laughing.

Over the past fourteen years, the AlainFortin Foundation has raised nearly $60,000for a variety of causes. The tournament hashelped Hemmingford’s Christmas BasketFund, which supplies underprivileged fami-lies in the community with food and giftsduring the holidays, and even helped the“Don’t Sit Home Alone Christmas Eve Sup-per” at the Witsend Resto Pub provide near-ly 40 people with a Christmas dinner andgifts. The generosity of the foundation is alsofelt year-round in donations made to localschools, sports teams, and the Guides andScouts of Hemmingford.

Last year, the foundation — through theassistance of Pharmacie Catherine Plamon-don — purchased a wheelchair for the Ser-vice d’Action bénévole, which helps providetransportation for the disabled to medicalappointments. This year, the foundationaims to help provide necessary equipment toa senior living facility being built in Hem-

mingford.The success of the annual golf tournament

is what makes it all happen, said Fortin.“It’s a lot of work, but it’s definitely worth

it in the end,” she said.The 15th annual Alain Fortin Foundation

One-Club Golf Tournament will be held Sun-day, Sept. 26. The deadline to register is tech-nically Monday, Sept. 20, however Fortinsaid tee time slots are traditionally left open

for last-minute registrants. Dinner is includ-ed in the $75 cost of registration though din-ner or golf registration may be paid for sep-arately.

For more information or to register, con-tact Fortin at 1-450-247-3731

Donations to the Alain Fortin Foundationmay also be sent in care of the foundation to306 Route 219, Hemmingford, QC J0L 1H0.

ROOTS - A local media personality has been demanding to dis - cuss my Plattsburgh roots. I’m a Navy brat, and my roots were the many Naval stations where my father was based. After more than 15 years of loose association with Plattsburgh, I choose to live here - not simply because my family was here, although it is, and not simply because of the volume of retired military and their impact on the city.

There are many of us who have chosen the North Country and have a lot to offer. We have lived in and participated in other municipalities around the country and around the state that have faced the same issues facing Plattsburgh today. We have seen what has worked, and we have seen what hasn’t worked - knowledge that can help right now.

Plattsburgh belongs to everyone who lives here, and everyone has ideas that deserve to be heard. Solutions come through open discussion. Please join in.

PLATTSBURGH — When Roy Hurd lost his home in LakeClear to a devastating fire in July, he lost everything.

“It’s been kind of crazy,” said Hurd, a well-known localsinger and songwriter and Redford native. “Some days, itfeels like things are okay and getting back to normal and oth-er times it kind of hits me when I go to reach for somethingwe don’t have anymore or we think about something we lostthat we hadn’t thought about. Things with strong emotionalconnections to history or the people we’ve known over theyears.”

Hurd and his wife, Amy Kohanski, weren’t home at thetime of the fire, which is something Hurd is extremely thank-ful for, he said. And, out of tragedy, Hurd said he gained anewfound appreciation for “what’s important.”

“We’re fortunate no one was home at the time. Somethinglike this helps you understand what’s important and reallymakes you thankful for friends and family,” said Hurd.

That’s the focus of a new song born from the loss he andhis wife suffered, said Hurd, he titled “The More PermanentThings.”

“Those are the things I set my heart on because the otherthings are not permanent at all,” said Hurd, who is now liv-

ing with his wife in an apartment they’ve rented in SaranacLake.

Though Hurd’s home was insured there are still somethings that will be irreplaceable, like keepsakes and even aspecial edition Fender guitar that was given to him as a gift.

Longtime friend Timothy C. Hartnett was with Hurd andKohanski when they learned of the tragedy.

“We were out to eat and had just finished our meal andRoy’s phone rang,” recalled Hartnett. “He didn’t answer itbecause he didn’t recognize the number. It rang again and hestill didn’t answer it. Then, it rang a third time and I said,‘Roy, maybe you better pick it up. It could be an emergency.’”

Little did Hartnett know, he was right. The call ended upbeing from one of Hurd’s neighbors telling him his housewas on fire.

“It was just terrible,” Hartnett said of the news.Not long after, Hartnett rallied many of Hurd’s musician

friends to put together a concert for Hurd and his wife, bothto entertain them and to help them raise money for anythings they may need that their insurance doesn’t cover.

“I just felt, with Roy being a musician, it was only fittingthe music community pull together to do a benefit concert,”said Hartnett.

It didn’t take long for more than a dozen acts to come to-gether.

“It’s just indicative of the love people havefor Roy,” said Hartnett. “The great thing isit’s not going to be just a benefit, it’s going tobe a reunion bringing together all of Roy’sfriends from over the years.”

Hurd said he was touched when he learnedso many people plan to turn out to offer theirsupport.

“I’ve written and sing songs about theunique beauty of this region and the peoplearound here for decades,” said Hurd, “but, tobe on the receiving end of such kindness andsuch support is overwhelming.”

The benefit concert will be held this Sun-day, Sept. 26, at the Krazy Horse Saloon, 14Margaret St., this Sunday beginning at 12p.m. Entertainment will be provided by theBlind Pig Blues Band, Celia Evans, CrossingNorth, Eat. Sleep. Funk., Eileen Egan Mack,Howard Jennings, Junior Barber, Lady Luck,Lucky Boyz, Mark Elliott, Mike Kennedy, Na-talie Ward Band, Speedy Arnold, StrictlySunday, Vince Consoli, and Zip City BluesBand with Chas Eller. Hurd will also performat the event with Meadow Merry.

The event will include a silent auction. Re-freshments will be served. The cost is a $10donation at the door for adults and $5 forchildren.

Those interested in donating items towardthe silent auction may contact Bill Betts at561-5395. Donations of food for the eventmay be arranged through Lynn Schneider bycalling 578-2807.

Hartnett may be reached at 645-5321 formore information or for those wishing to vol-unteer at the event. Those unable to attendthe benefit may still send donations in care ofHurd to 9 Station Road, Saranac Lake, N.Y.12983.
