E L I Z A B E T H T O W N —Staff and residents of the Ho-race Nye Nursing Hometook time June 14 to honorthe American flag and thosewho served it currently liv-ing at the facility.

Twenty-one veterans and11 veteran spouses were partof the annual Flag Day cere-mony at the nursing home,where the facility was the re-cipient of a new flag andpole to be placed in the vet-erans activities room.

“We had come here on atour and the veterans that

were here let us know thatthey did not have a flag intheir recreation room,”Gregg Lee, Adjutant for Dis-abled American Veterans,said. “We are here today togive them the gift of a flagthat will be here and thatthey can call their own.”

The pole was giftedthrough Danny Kaifetz ofAdirondack Flagpoles.

“Nothing is more impor-tant on Flag Day then honor-ing those who have servedunder her,” Kaifetz said.

“The Stars and Stripes arethe symbol of this great na-tion,” Tim Pierce, Directorfor New York State VeteransAffairs, said. “It is a symbolof our many conflicts andwars, but it is also a symbolof each of our duty.”

Elizabethtown SupervisorMargaret Bartley talkedabout an experience that

made her better appreciatethe flag, traveling betweenthe former West and EastGermany.

“When we crossed over tothe east, there were machineguns on every corner andthere were no smiles,” Bart-

ley said. “When I was com-ing back into West Berlin, Isaw the flag on the BerlinWall flying proudly. That’swhen I knew what that sym-bol meant. It meant that Iwould be on the safe side,the free side.”

Illustrator draws outstories for studentsBy Katherine [email protected]

ELIZABETHTOWN —Preschool students atElizabethtown-LewisCentral School receiveda special guest from chil-dren’s book author andillustrator, Steven Kel-logg on June 15.

The students had aninteractive lesson withKellogg as he told themhow he became inspiredfor his book’s characterswhile drawing them tolife before the children’seyes.

“I love my job writingillustrative books forkids and I hope you likethem too,” he said to theclass.

With excited volume, he described his adventures ofPinkerton, the main character in his series of books based onhis first pet, a dog. Kellogg started by describing his child-hood, longing for a pet and not being able to convince hismother with, “please, can we keep him?”

As an adult, he was able to get Pinkerton, a very large doghe described as, “doing everything upside down!”

“This dog represented my mother ’s revenge,” Kellogg toldthe children as he drew out the character on a piece of paper.

Kellogg said he felt his Pinkerton was unique - a one of akind - and wanted to share the story of his dog. He said hisbooks were published in many languages and after a shortwhile he started to receive letters from fans.

“Turns out my Pinkerton was like many other dogs,” Kel-logg said. “I was surprised by the number of two and fourlegged companions out there that people wrote about thatwere like Pinkerton. It made me want to write even more ad-ventures of Pinkerton.”

After describing the story of Pinkerton, Kellogg sharedmore of his books with the students and allowed them tokeep the picture of Pinkerton.

Drinkwine said she was happy Kellogg and his illustrativecharacters could visit her classroom.

Steven Kellogg reads from his books toJessica Drinkwine’s preschool class atElizabethtown-Lewis Central School.

Next steps outlined in HNNH saleBy Keith [email protected]

ELIZABETHTOWN — So what happensnow?

Members of the Essex County personnelcommittee asked that question June 18 con-cerning the now approved sale of the HoraceNye Nursing Home to the Centers For Special-ty Care out of New York City.

During the Board of Supervisors Clerk re-port, Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafavaasked if there was any material that wouldhelp current staff members of the facility ex-plore their options.

"I really think need we need to sit down withthe staff at the home and talk to them abouttheir options, and if there are openings in thecounty, (see) if they will be able to transfer, andwhat else is available to them," Scozzafavasaid. "There are a lot of questions that theyhave."

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartleysaid that there was a concern about vacationtime and sick time when the New York privatefirm bought the then-owned Fulton County fa-cility.

"Most of that is spelled out in the contract,"County Manager Dan Palmer said. "If theyhave accumulated vacation time their optionsare in the contract."

Palmer also said that the group planning topurchase the Horace Nye Home has alreadybeen talking to county officials and the em-ployee's union about the potential change-

over."Centers for Specialty Care have already

been in contact with CSEA about the transferof the employees from public to private,"Palmer said. "I know that there has been somecommunications as far as the transfer of theunion."

Minerva Supervisor Sue Montgomery-Corey asked if there was something that couldalso be put together for those who are servedby the facility.

"I think that it would also be helpful if wecould put something together for the familiesof the residents," Corey said. "They want toknow, and I am also wondering what are thenext steps."

Palmer said that everything at this point wascentered around the contract of sale.

"Dan Manning is working on that and thelanguage for the contract," he said.

Palmer added that Centers for SpecialtyCare had developed a transition plan that theyhad used with previous sales and would againuse with the Horace Nye Home.

"They will come in to meet with the employ-ees and come in to meet with the residents andtheir families," he said. "They really have thisdown to what they want to do. We will nothave a firm table until the contract of sale hasbeen complete, but we can work something upto let them know what the next steps are."

Corey felt that would aid in the transition."It would be important for them to know

that there is a plan in place and that they willbe coming in to meet with everyone, and thatthere is a time table to that," she said.


LEWIS — NYCO Minerals may finallyhave its deal with the state of New York.

After four years of talks, the Assembly En-vironmental Conservation Committee hasunanimously backed a proposed amend-ment to the state Constitution Article 14which would allow for a land swap betweenthe state and the company.

“Hopefully this does get through the Leg-islature,” Lewis Supervisor David Bladessaid. “This would be a swap of lands that areadjoining where one has a considerableamount of minerals.”

Blades said that Lewis would not be theonly town that would benefit if the landswap was agreed to in the state Legislature.

“It’s a benefit for the town of Lewis as wellas for the town of Willsboro,” Blades said.

“The towns really are partners in this be-cause Lewis has the mines while Willsborois where the processing takes place. This re-ally is beneficial to the economy of the en-tire county.”

Blades said that the state would be receiv-ing a good parcel of land in the swap.

“They are getting a great property thatthey can classify as Forever Wild,” he said.

The amendment is part of a package dealto make changes to Article 14, as it is cou-pled with a clause that would end the landdispute between the state and more than 200residents of Township 40 in Raquette Lake.The amendment would grant clear titles tothe property owners, while setting up a fundthat landowners would have to pay into forfuture state land acquisitions.

The amendment must be passed by twoconsecutive state Legislatures and ratifiedby New York voters.

State land swap may clear way forNYCO mining to keep producing

Most Ticonderoga HighSchool students weresleeping-in the morn-

ing of June 12. Classes had endedthe day before and a little shuteyewas in order after a long schoolyear.

Not for Jay Hebert. While others were dreaming of

future success, Hebert was work-ing to make his dreams a reality.The rising junior was on theschool track, working out. That’swhy Hebert is a champion.

Hebert has established himselfas one of the most successful Sec-tion VII track and field athletesever.

Hebert won the New York StatePublic High School Athletic Asso-ciation small-school championshipJune 9 in the 110-meter hurdles.He then won the New York Feder-ation championship, which pitsthe top eight runners from schoolsof all sizes against each other.

Hebert went undefeated thisseason with a best time of 14.07seconds — the fastest time in NewYork and the fourth fastest highschool time in the nation, accord-ing to his coach. The Olympic Bqualifying standard is 13.72 sec-onds. He’s only 1.2 seconds awayfrom the world record in the 110hurdles held by Cuba’s DayronRobles.

Ti Coach Walter Thorne believesHebert can run in the Olympics,but the Sentinel champion is morereserved than his coach.

“That’s too far away to thinkabout,” Hebert said. “I just wantto work hard, improve and run incollege.”

Hebert is just one championarea residents can take pride in.Section VII athletes won threestate titles at the track and field

championships June 8 and 9. Alsobringing home championshipswere Dan Lennon of Peru in theDivision II 3,200-meter run, andthe Beekmantown 400-meter relayteam of Jess Huber, MikaelaFrechette, Kallie Villemaire andCourtney Wilson.

Hebert and Lennon ran in thehigh school national champi-onship track meet last weekend inGreensboro, N.C., proving theirmettle once again.

Hebert finished second in hisheat of the 110-meter hurdles inthe “emerging elite” class.

Lennon battled all the way be-fore finishing third in the 5,000-meter championship race. He alsoadded a 22nd place finish in thechampionship two-mile race.Lennon, who graduates this week-end, will take his talents to theSyracuse University cross countryand track programs in the fall.

What makes a champion? Cer-tainly talent plays a huge role. Sodoes work ethic.

Kenyan distance runners, whodominate distance runningthroughout the world, often com-ment, “Somewhere, right now, oneof my competitors is running.” It’sa reminder that dedication cannever wane.

Jay Hebert, Dan Lennon and ahandful of others, although stillyoung, know that. It’s one of thereasons they’re champions —champions we can all be proud of.

Athletes win titles, deliverpride for entire region That question is being asked, not only in

this country, but around the world, in thepast few years. In New Orleans, Birming-

ham, Mobile and Huntsville the discussion has tak-en center stage with the announcement that thisfall they will cease publishing a daily print productand will instead be switching to an online publica-tion, with a print product only 3 times per week.

The situation in the above named communities isimportant to watch. For one, the ownership is thesame as The Cleveland Plain Dealer, where report-edly there were meetings recently to quell concernsthere. But in general, the daily newspaper revenue-model dilemma is happening across America, in-cluding here in the North Country. In Canada simi-lar moves are taking place in Calgary, Edmontonand Ottawa. Newspapers are not going to becomeextinct, but they are facing the types of challengesthey’ve been unaccustomed with dealing.

Toward the end of the last century, daily newspa-pers enjoyed healthy bottom lines and became pop-ular investment opportunities. Unfortunately, theirprimary mission was not so much with an eye onfuture technology investments and research as itwas on maximizing the bottom line. They mustnow face the realization that there is no easy fixthat will allow them to maintain their profit mar-gins and at the same time reclaim the lofty statusthey once enjoyed.

Many daily newspapers blame the downfall onpeople reading their news online for free whiledropping their paid subscription. The revenuemodel they have been accustomed to operating un-der was based on 80 percent adverting revenuesand 20 percent circulation revenues. As paid sub-scriptions continue to drop, advertising revenueswere affected. In 2005, daily newspapers registered$47 billion in ad revenues and by 2010 they weredown to $22.8 billion.

While the dailies try to reposition themselveswith paywalls, reduced print days, outsourcingcertain tasks while trimming staff and news cover-age, not all types of newspapers have abandonedtheir true mission. About 45 minutes fromAsheville, in Yancey County, North Carolina,where the population is less than 18,000,the Yancey County News won two major journal-ism awards in 2011, its first year of publishing—theE.W. Scripps Award for Distinguished Service tothe First Amendment and the Ancil Payne Awardfor Ethics in Journalism. The Yancey CountyNews is a weekly, available online for free as wellas in print, with a circulation of 1,200 copies and amasthead that lists only two people as staff—hus-

band and wifeJonathan and SusanAustin.

Being a newspaper isnot about all the trap-pings that come withrunning a large, prof-itable business. Largecorporate or publiclytraded companies maynot be the best stew-ards of newspapers inthe future as therenowned Poynter In-stitute for Media Studies in St. Petersburg, Fla. re-cently reported. Officials acknowledge their tradi-tional revenue source, the Tampa Bay Times, can nolonger finance its parent organi zation. The insti-tute, which owns the Tampa Bay Times, has tradi-tionally relied on dividends from the paper, as wellas tuition, foundation support and donations. Theinstitute once received dividends—millions annu-ally—from the Tampa Bay Times, but those checksare no longer being cut.

In its raw form a newspaper is still what it hasalways been about, it’s a partnership with the com-munity it serves. The community provides the fi-nancial support while the newspaper holds up itsend by being the community watch dog, reportingon hometown events, providing the local mer-chants with a proven advertising medium and be-ing the hometown cheerleader. Yes, to stay in busi-ness you must run a profitable operation or youcan’t sustain the effort, but what still counts to thecommunity you serve is providing the platform forpublishing local news and useful advertising infor-mation that readers find of value and can afford.

This community newspaper has had to face someof the same financial challenges as our area dailycounterparts, but while they have released staff re-cently as a result of outsourcing and cutbackswe’ve added six experienced staff castoffs in recentweeks, with more in the wings. We are continuingto expand our digital offering, which will remainfree, and we look to the future with promise andoptimism as we continue to live up to our foundersmotto of being “more than a community newspa-per, we’re a community service.” In the end, thereal problem lies with the newspaper investorswho require profit priority over the informationalneeds of the local community.

Remember school times

They have donned their graduationrobes, adjusted their tassels andnow they walk the last walk while

Pomp and Circumstance plays in the back-ground.They willwalk theirlast walk ashigh schoolstudents andwill never behigh schoolstudentsagain.

For some,this will bethe last dayin theirschool forev-er. Most ofthe graduates will be itching to graduate,to move on to the next chapter in theirlives. It won’t be until sometime later thatthey will realize the momentous signifi-cance of this day.

For parents, this day will be an occasionfor enormous joy and pride and at least alittle sadness. Many will remember theirchildren in footed pajamas with a bowl ofcheerios spilling on the floor as theywalked quickly across the kitchen floor.The time between then and now will seemunmercifully too short. For some parents,the nest will now be empty and this day,more than any other day will signal tothem that their child will soon be gone.

High school graduation will be the cere-mony that announces that this leg of life’sjourney is over. While high school gradua-tion is an ending it is also signals thedawning of a new and exciting horizon.The specter of the unknown, the challengeof leaving the security of a school familyand the security of the adults that raisedthe graduate is a major step towards matu-rity.

Some graduates will extend their aca-demic pursuit by entering college, somewill serve in the military and some will en-ter the work world right from high school.Whatever their choices might be, they have

prepared themselves for what lies beforethem.

Graduation from high school is valida-tion that they are ready to surmount what-ever challenges are ahead. High schoolgraduation is proof of character, tenacity,optimism and courage. Graduation is atime for summing up and taking an ac-count of what has accomplished, what hasnot and what new direction will be em-barked upon.

Several speeches will be delivered atgraduation and they will speak to selfless-ness and idealism. “Find your passion,your strengths and plug them into theworld around you.” “We all have a respon-sibility to make the world a better placethan how we found it.” Perhaps a popularteacher, the school principal or superin-tendent will charge the graduates to go outand change the world. To carry their almamater with them as they go.

Then the moment will come that willnever come again, they will walk across thestage, receive their diploma and move theirtassel to the other side, they have graduat-

ed. Cameras will flash, tears will be shed,and big hugs will be meted out to everyonepresent.

Graduates will line up to receive congrat-ulations and to say their final good byes.They will be saying goodbye to teachers thathave been their mentors, their instructors,their counselor, the speaker of stern wordswhen needed and a thoughtful shoulder tolean on at times. They will be saying good-bye to their friends, friends that have beenwith them since Kindergarten in many in-stances. They will be saying goodbye totheir entire school community rich with somany memories. They will also be sayinggoodbye to the familiar comfort of a secureschool routine.

Today, the certainty offered by theirschool community will end. The partnershipthat was shared by their parents and theirschool on their behalf will also end. Thoughthey are saying goodbye, many special mem-ories will be indelibly etched in their hearts.

“Carpi Diem” graduates. Remember, all kids count. Reach the writer at [email protected].

Kids Count By Scot Hurlburt

My day in jail

While the day may have started out slow, my chanceto follow along with the officers at the Essex CountyJail went by faster than any in recent memory.

The morning started at 6:30 a.m., when I met Capt. Tom Mur-phy in the lobby to the Public Safety Building in Lewis. He tookme down to the morning briefing,where it was announced that thejail was currently filled with 95 in-mates - with three others whowould be coming at the end of theweek to serve weekend jail sen-tences.

Following the briefing, wewalked into the jail facility,through several locked doors thatwere controlled by a central area,and awaited shift change.

That was the slowest part of theday, because while I am workingon it, I have very little patience.Officers from the morning shiftwaited with those from the night shift as the supervisors madesure that everyone was present and accounted - both officersand inmates.

After that, it was into the jail with the officer I was assignedto, Nathan Denton. We started the day in B Block, where the fe-male population was housed and being served breakfast. Dentondid mail call while there, yelling out names and handing mailout to inmates. Three inmates who were not lucky enough to getmail came up asking - almost imploring - if Denton was surethat was all the mail for the day. One even claimed her mail wasbeing withheld.

That was one of the first glimpses into what the consequenceswere for those who made the choices that had them wearing theECCF sweatshirts - the lack of outside contact and the desire toattain it.

I was shown the other blocks, including the segregation andworkers areas, as well as A and C blocks.

A block was where I next got a taste of what poor choices canlead to. The big debate of the morning in the most populatedmale area was the fact that some of the inmates were not al-lowed to watch the end of game one of the NBA Finals betweenthe Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder (first question:why would you want to watch the NBA, but that’s for anothercolumn). The game, which started after 9 p.m., lasted well afterlights out at 11 p.m., and the call was made that game one of aseven game series was not that important (again, has there everbeen an NBA game that important since Jordon retired, but I di-gress).

Either way, it was an issue that came up because the people inthere made choices that now restrict their ability to do whatthose on the outside can do - watch something past 11 p.m.

(It was also an issue that was forgotten as the officer oversee-ing the block said that the inmates turned from complainingabout not watching the game to why I did not ask them anyquestions after I left the area).

Another was watching some of the inmates walk around therecreation area. The enclosed space included a stationary standthat could be used for pullups or other exercises, a sky light andtables, but was confined to an area where it would take manylaps to walk a mile. When I walk, I go around the town, which isa lot more challenging and fun.

I also got to see the officers book a pair of new residents,which was again eye-opening. The officers worked with thesoon-to-be inmates to make sure that they were stable, able tohave all of the information they needed, and in one case, lookedup a phone number for someone that needed to call a familymember to ask about bail.

All of them said that working with the people coming throughbooking and being civil with them will allow the person headinginto the jail to drop the defenses that they may have had up withthe arresting officer, although they added that is not always thecase.

In the end, I left the facility over five hours after I entered. Butwith as busy as Denton and the other officers were, it seemedlike I had only been there for a couple of hours after the shiftswere changed.

So, a big thank you to the officers who let me hang aroundand pester them with questions while they were being kept verybusy by their tennants. Stay safe and thanks for the visit.

The Tank by Keith Lobdell

Taxpayers lied toTo the Valley News:On June 5, 2012, the Essex County

board of Supervisors threw the resi-dents of Horace Nye Home under aspeeding bus . Not all of them wereparty to this miscarriage. I want tothank Mr. Scozzafava, Mr. Morrow,Ms. Boisen, Mr. Moore, Mr. Marnell,and Mr. Hatch for their support of theresidents of the nursing home andyou will always be remembered foryour dedication to keeping the homeopened. Bless you all.

One supervisor said the failings ofthe nursing home was basically thefault of the governing body of EssexCounty. I couldn‘t agree more. Theyare not smart enough to be in chargeof our county. They are there just fortheir own benefit. One in an inter-view with the Adirondack Explorersaid he would like to invest $500,000in the fish hatchery which was sup-pose to close down, yet they contin-ue to put monies into the hatchery;$30,000 for a truck, $10,000 for polesfor nets, and I can't wait for the nextround of spending for it. If you checkthe stocking report put out this year,you would understand why heprefers fish over the elderly. Anotherhas the fair grounds and needs fundsfrom the county to run. Fun andgames over the elderly, great chose.Then you have one that sees that hisfamily gets the openings in the coun-ty and when there is an out cry, theyput together an ethics committee, af-ter all the damage has been done. An-

other wants the state to purchaseconservation easements instead ofacquiring full title to the land so theycan keep their leases and have exclu-sive hunting and fishing rights at theexpense of state tax payers for landspurchased by the Adirondack NatureConservancy, the Finch, Pruyn lands.As Neil Woodworth said," The Goo-ley Club's idea of a conservationeasement would exclude the public.The public would in effect be payingfor the Gooley Club's playgroundthrough taxes." paid by the state onthe easement lands. The others saythey voted to cut taxes for the peoplethey represent yet the way it was ex-plained even by selling the nursinghome we will not see a reduction inour taxes. A wise man once said, ‘Thesuperior man understands what isright; the inferior man understandswhat will sell."

The taxpayers have been sold a biglie.

The whole process from beginningto end has been done according towhat certain board members wanted,

right or wrong as long as it was donetheir way. lt's time to Contact the At-torney Generals office and ask for aninvestigation of the procedures takenby the board of supervisors to see ifall is above board and legal, if therewas any conflict of interest in the saleof Horace Nye Home. We deserve atleast that.

Memorial Day 2012 is now inour rear view mirror. Theday has passed, but aptly

is not out of sight in our hearts, mindsand vision. Nor should it be. As weapproach Independence Day, it is ap-propriate to view the issue of villageof Saranac Lake police responsethrough the prism these two holidaysprovides.

First, let us agree quite plainly thatno police officer should ever be in dan-ger due to politics. Nor should they beexpected to warm the bench when an-other officer is in danger. In the case ofofficer safety, mutual aid must beseamless and immediate. Therefore,universal mutual aid to officers in dis-tress should be codified through statelegislation. It’s important to note thataccording to The Valley News, MayorRabideau correctly stated that thereare appropriate exceptions such as ex-treme danger and/or humane reasons.Our police officers are amazing, andjust want to do their job. Let’s takethem right out of the political equa-tion, and protect them so they can pro-tect us. Let’s give our local communi-ties the backup they need too, by mak-ing mutual aid in extreme circum-stances such as officer safety, a Statepolicy. But let’s not confuse this withroutine police work.

Second, we must honor our most ba-sic American tenets, one of which isthat we abhor taxation without repre-sentation. In the case of Saranac Lake,

we have a village that pays hundredsof thousands of dollars a year to taxingentities that provide little to no servic-es in return. Yet that same village pro-vides services such as basic law en-forcement to those taxing entitieswithout compensation. It’s completelybackwards.

We fought for Independence fromBritain over this very issue. We wonthat war. Then we declared war onBritain in 1812 because they wereabusing us again. In that case theywere harassing our ships and pressingAmericans and British ex patriots intomilitary service to the Crown. We wonthat war as well. As with more recentwars, the fallen heroes of our earliestwars gave everything for our freedomtoo.

Do we somehow now imagine thatit wasn’t OK for Britain to tax us with-out representation or press our sailorsinto service to the Crown, but it’s OKif we tax each other without represen-tation or expect police service for free?

Let’s be fair. The towns that tax thevillage of Saranac Lake are in a toughspot. Fifty percent or more of theirbudget is caused by unfunded statemandates. The problem is broken atthe state level. But is it correct to taxanyone or anything just because wecan? Where does that end? Taxes arenecessary for legitimate governmentactivity, but in America they shouldnever be levied without getting a legit-imate service in return!

There have been a plethora of politi-

cians who have held hearings aboutthe problem. Elected officials at everylevel acknowledging the problem iscrippling their ability to govern effec-tively. However, once the hearings areover, nothing really changes.

Third, as a minimum the village ofSaranac Lake should either receive re-imbursement for its police response toneighboring municipalities. Thisshould be in the form of offsets to itstax bill, or direct payment for thoseservices when rendered outside villagemunicipal bounds.

Fourth, the state must then pass sig-nificant mandate reform legislation,starting with an all-out assault on themulti-billion dollar problem of Medi-caid fraud, waste, and abuse. Thisshould be followed in short order byan amendment to our state constitu-tion outlawing unfunded mandates.We cannot continue to pay lip serviceto this problem.

Finally, we must challenge the polit-ical status quo. One certain way to fixthis problem is by making SaranacLake a city. I know there is little politi-cal will for this amongst several of theregion’s long-time politicians, but that,too, can be changed.

Westport Health Center to be remodeled through state HEAL grantBy Keith [email protected]

WESTPORT — The Westport Health Cen-ter will be getting a facelift.

Last week, Gov. Andrew Cuomo an-nounced that $301.1 million in HEAL NYgrants will help 40 hospitals and nursinghomes across the state, including $20.2 mil-lion to the North Country.

CPI, the company that owns both CVPHin Plattsburgh and the Elizabethtown Com-munity Hospital, received $7,309,572 inHEAL funding, with $5,639,000 for remod-eling and renovation at CVPH which will re-sult in approximately 22 private rooms.

The other $1,670,572 will be used to reno-vate and build an addition onto the ECH-controlled Westport Health Center, accord-ing to spokesperson Jane Hooper.

“We have been wanting to do some workat the health center and have been lookingfor the funding that has now come throughthe HEAL NY grant,” Hooper said. “This

gives us the funds to renovate and do someaddition work.”

Hooper said that the work to be donewould help with efficiency at the site.

“We want to have a more efficient use ofspace as well as creating some additionalspace,” she said.

While planning for the project is in thevery early stages, Hooper said that the ad-dition would be new clinical space andwould add about 3,500 square feet to the fa-cility.

The project will also allow for updates ofinterior rooms, mechanical and electricalsystems, technology infrastructure, HVACand other utilities.

“We are still in the early stages,” Hoopersaid. “We have a meeting with the architectnext week to go over the preliminary de-signs and thoughts. More information willfollow as plans are finalized.”

Hooper said that the hospital is also re-quired to apply for a certificate of need fromthe state (for big projects or when new serv-

ices are added). “We would hope that since the state gave

us the funding, they will approve the work,”

she said.Work is expected to begin this fall and last

through the winter.

“We believe that we have acandidate, but no one is readyto make any official announce-ments,” Essex County Demo-cratic Committee Chair SueMontgomery Corey said, notcommenting on whether thatcandidate was Tarantino.

“We are looking forward toa great race, whoever the can-didate is,” she added.

Currently, the only officialcandidate in the field to re-place Sayward is anotherQueensbury resident, Repub-lican Supervisor Dan Stec,who also chairs the WarrenCounty Board of Supervisors.

After Sayward announcedthat she was retiring, Stec wasjoined by fellow GOP mem-bers Bob Reagan and Evelyn

Wood. On the Democraticside, all eyes were on Jay Su-pervisor and Essex CountyBoard Chair Randy Douglas,until he announced that hewould not seek the position.

Since, there has been littleword if the “blue party” wouldtab anyone for the race untilthe past week.

Essex County RepublicanChairman Ron Jackson of Es-sex said that he knew therewould be an eventual chal-lenger for Stec to face in No-vember.

“We knew that this wouldbe a contested race from thebeginning,” Jackson said. “If itis Dennis, he ran against Tere-sa in his first time around. I donot know him that well, but Ido know Dan (Stec) and he willbe an absolutely wonderful

representative for the 114thdistrict and for Essex County.He has been putting in the timeand learning the issues and hehas got the experience as a su-pervisor and county chair.”

Stec advisor Win Belangersaid that he was “surprised”by the potential choice ofTarantino, but not the fact thatthe race could now be contest-ed.

“It’s very fair to say that ifthey did not field a candidate,something was wrong with thesystem,” Belanger said.

Even though he has not offi-cially entered the race, Taran-tino has picked up the en-dorsement of his party inevery county that lies withinthe 114th Assembly District,including Essex, Warren,Washington and Saratoga.

Tarantino currently has lawoffices in Glens Falls.

DohenyContinued from page 1

“We will work very hardfor him and he will be proudof us,” Morency said.

“The supervisors are fol-lowing the lead of the Repub-lican Committee,” EssexCounty GOP Chair Ron Jack-son said. “This is the secondtime that we have endorsedhim. We feel that he is thebest qualified to represent usand to get the jobs issuestraightened out and workon getting the economy backon track.”

Doheny said that he wasgrateful for the endorse-

ment.“This endorsement means

a lot to me,” Doheny said.“You supervisors are thepeople who are on the frontlines of the challenges thatwe face. I have met witheveryone and we are going towork hard with you to getthe economy back on track.”

Doheny has also been en-dorsed by New York StateSen. Betty Little.

“We pushed to cut spend-ing and close our multi-bil-lion dollar deficit in NewYork,” Little said via a June11 press release. “Our feder-al government should be ex-pected to do the same. I have

the utmost confidence thatMatt Doheny will be a leaderin this effort, and that’s whyI’m pleased to endorse him.”

Doheny is facing a June 26primary against KellieGreene in the race top be theRepublican nominee for the23rd Congressional District,a seat that is currently heldby Plattsburgh Democrat BillOwens.

Doheny was one of ninecandidates who attempted toseek the party nomination af-ter then congressman JohnMcHugh was tabbed to bethe Secretary of the Army in2009, eventually losing out toDede Scozzafava, who

dropped out of the race threedays before the election andendorsed Owens.

In 2010, Doheny won hisparty’s primary against LakePlacid accountant DouglasHoffman, who then ran as aConservative and was point-ed to as the reason why Do-heny lost a close race toOwens after receiving 6 per-cent of the General Electionvote.

Also on June 26, three can-didates are vying for the Re-publican nomination to facecurrent Sen. Kirsten Gilli-brand, including WendyLong, Bob Turner and GeorgeMaragos.

Vandalism arrestsContinued from page 1

Nothing was stolen and no significantdamage was sustained to the building. In-vestigation at the scene revealed that un-known persons had entered the schoolthrough a side door and proceeded to ran-domly throw eggs, milk and flour on allthree floors, forcing school to be delayed anhour to clean up the mess.

“It was very disheartening for everyone tostart the day like this,” Lake Placid Superin-

tendent Randy Richards said. “The custodi-ans worked to clean it up and as faculty andstaff came in they jumped in to help.”

Richards estimated the property damageto be a few hundred dollars for the installa-tion of new locks but said the greatest lossthe school suffered was time.

“This seems to be more of a prank becausenothing was damaged, but it’s not funny,” hesaid.

Richards said the overall tone at the schoolwas most people seemed pleased onWednesday that some of those responsible

had been caught.“Everyone is very relieved and hope this

sends a message out that if you want to dothese crazy things we will get the police in-volved,” Richards said.

Though the first two students arrested areseniors, Richards does not believe this was asenior prank.

“Our students have been sympathetic andapologetic to the teachers and custodianswho had to clean this,” Richards said. “Thiswas not a senior class act, just a group ofrogue individuals.”

The suspects may only see a small amountof school suspension due to the upcomingschool testing, but Richards said it is very“doubtful” those who participated in thevandalism will be allowed to participate ingraduation on June 22.

The female and the 18-year-old male stu-dents are scheduled to appear in the villageof Lake Placid Justice Court on June 27, at 7 p.m. to answer to the charges.

The 17-year-old male will appear in courtat a later date.

North Elba tries last move to keep skatepark equipment in townBy Andy [email protected]

LAKE PLACID — Members of the NorthElba Town Board Tuesday, June 12 decidedto keep working with the Lake Placid Cen-tral School District to find a way to keepthe town’s skateboard park equipment inthe Olympic Village.

If they cannot find a solution locally, theequipment may be given to another com-munity, possibly Saranac Lake.

Right now school officials are concernedabout liability if they take down the fencesurrounding the equipment, currently lo-cated on school property next to the Ship-man Youth Center on Cummins Road, andleave it unsupervised, according to TownBoard members. The only way to cover li-ability now is to pay someone to supervisethe park, which town officials have triedin the past and decided it’s not worth theinvestment for the small number of peoplewho had used it.

Dan Leff urged Town Board membersJune 12 to keep the skatepark in LakePlacid. In addition to the $100,000 securedby former Town Supervisor Shirley Seney,Leff donated $35,000 of his own money forpark’s equipment. His son, Brian, de-signed it. Both were at the June 12 meet-ing, along with park builder Pat Ledger.

“I simply wanted to show up and saythank you and say it’s the right call,” DanLeff told board members about their deci-sion to wait another month to find a wayto keep the skatepark in Lake Placid.

“We understand you’re the primarystakeholder, and it is very much appreci-ated by the community,” Town SupervisorRoby Politi said. “We had (Councilman)Bob (Miller) working on this for over ayear trying to solve the problem. We

thought we had it solved at one point withORDA; unfortunately, that didn’t materi-alize.”

Town officials said they had tried tomove the equipment to another venue intown, but there was no suitable locationand ORDA didn’t want it.

Members of the Saranac Lake SkateparkCommittee were in attendance, offeringsupport and saying that skateboardersthere would like the equipment. While

Town Board members were expected todiscuss the equipment June 12 and possi-bly make a decision who they would giveit to — Saranac Lake or Wilmington havebeen mentioned as possible candidates —the supervisor said they didn’t have tomake a decision that night.

“Quite frankly, it ’s been sitting overthere for a year without a lot of use,” Poli-ti said. “Thirty days probably isn’t goingto make a difference.”

Councilman Miller said he had askedLPCS Superintendent Randy Richards ifthe school would be willing to take downthe fence around the skatepark, but liabil-ity was a concern. One idea is to have theShipman Youth Center lease the land, tak-ing the school off the liability.

“We’re stil l waiting for an answer,”Miller said.

While Town Board members reiteratedthat they want to find a way to keep theskatepark in Lake Placid, they don’t wantto see it sit idle just to keep it in town.

“If we can’t problem solve this, I stillwant to see kids use it,” Miller said. “Andthere are some very nice folks here fromSaranac Lake.”

The issue is expected to be on the agen-da during the next Town Board meeting,scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 10 at theNorth Elba Town House in Saranac Lake.

Stage set for Depot Theatre season to open with ‘Careless Love’By Keith [email protected]

WESTPORT — The lights are ready tocome up on another season of theater at theWestport train depot.

The Depot Theatre will open its 2012 sea-son with “Careless Love,” which has alreadystolen the heart of managing director AngelWuellner.

“This first show is the one that I have beenlooking forward to, and it is living up to thehype in rehearsals,” said Wuellner, who wasnamed as the new director in February. “Ileft the practice singing the songs, and thatis what you want, people leaving a musicalsinging the songs.”

The show opens the 2012 season on Friday,

June 22, with an opening reception follow-ing the performance. It will run through July8, and be followed by “The Hound of theBaskervilles,” running from July 13 throughJuly 29.

“Three actors play all of the parts and tellthe story, so it is kind of a comedic take on aclassic Sherlock Holmes tale,” Wuellnersaid.

The third show of the season is “The Mar-velous Wonderettes,” which runs from Aug.3 until Aug. 19.

“It’s about three high school students inthe 1950s who meet back up at their class re-union, and it features all of the girl groupsongs from the 50s and 60s that everyoneknows the words to, like ‘Mr. Sandman’ and‘It’s My Party,’” Wuellner said.

The final show is “Real women HaveCurves,” from Aug. 24 through Sept. 9.

“It is a coming-of-age comedy that we arelooking forward to at the end of the season,”Wuellner said.

There will also be six Tonight Only per-formances featuring local acts along withother groups July 3, 18 and 25 and Aug. 8, 15and 29.

Along with opening night receptions, theDepot Theatre will also return with NameYour Own Price Nights, which will be heldon the first Monday of each production.

“We want everyone who wants to comehere and enjoy a show to be able to come,”Wuellner said. “This was something thatwas very popular last year and we wantedto make sure that it continued.”

New to the productions will be a Talk Backsession, which will be held on the firstThursday of each production.

“It’s a chance for the audience to ask ques-tions and get answers from the artistic stafffor each one of the performances,” Wuellnersaid.

Wuellner said that she was excited for thenew season to start, her first at the Depot.

“These past few months have been excit-ing and non-stop,” she said. “The summercame fast, but it is going to be a great one.We have a great team here and even therewas a lot of work, there are a lot of willingpeople to put in the work.”

Westport students give back by cleaning Ballard Park waterfrontBy Katherine [email protected]

WESTPORT — Students at WestportCen-tral School made an effort to give back to thelocal community and practice good citizen-ship with a day of cleaning at the beach onJune 14.

Students in grades 3 through 6 took theday to go to Ballard Park on Route 9N, rak-ing grass clippings and sand, and movingstones and sticks from the shoreline to helpprepare the beach for summer swimmers.

“This is a great opportunity for our stu-dents to participate and be active in main-taining their community,” elementaryschool teacher Michelle Rawson said.

Bill Johnston, president of the BallardPark Foundation, said he was very pleasedthe students came out to help at the park.

“This is a great opportunity to help con-tribute to the community, and we also wantthem to realize this beach is for them and isopen to the public,” Johnston said.

This is the first, of hopefully many morecleanup days Westport Central School willparticipate in Rawson said.

“I hope this project becomes an annualevent because it shows students the value ofdonating their time to help,” Rawson said.“So that all can enjoy this beautiful commu-nity,”

Upon arrival at Ballard Park, Johnsonthanked the students for coming to help.

“I am so glad you’re coming down to help,we need all the help we can get,” Johnstonsaid.

The students were enjoying the nice

weather, and laughing and talking tofriends and classmates, as they cleaned thearea.

“It’s really important to help,” third grad-er Mallorie Waldron said as she swept offthe beach steps and removed the old leaves.

She said she was happy to help out the parkand keep it clean.

“Things get done faster and keep cleanmore when people help out,” Waldron said.

The program is not only a green initiativebut is part of WCSD’s initiative to give backto the community, Rawson said.

“This project is something we started thisyear; however, we have done other commu-nity service collections in the past. We de-cided that this year we would donate morethan money,” Rawson said.

Every year, WCSD teaches character edu-cation. Community service is one of thetraits.

Other projects have included “Pennies forPets,” which was donated to the WestportSPCA, the third and fourth grades collectedmoney to donate to Haiti coined “Hope forHaiti.”

Supplies for the clean up were donated byCamp Dudley.

Ballard Park, a local spot that communitymembers can enjoy, has a public beach, out-door stage for Shakespeare in the Park anda lovely garden to sit and enjoy. Johnstonsaid he hopes with the help of the commu-nity the park will continue to be a greatplace for all to enjoy.

“We all want this case resolved as soonas possible but obviously I must see all ev-idence the case has to offer,” O’Bryan said.

Restitution Assistant District Attorney Michelle

Bowen submitted to the court $10,158.16in expenses documented by Crane Moun-tain Valley Horse Rescue (CMVHR) to carefor the horse, named Pops, from the timehe was brought to their rescue on May 21,2010 to present.

Willsboro Mountain Road repair project to finally be completedBy Keith [email protected]

WILLSBORO — After two years of letters,phone calls and pleading with the state De-partment of Transportation, Willsboro Su-pervisor Ed Hatch has received good newsabout Willsboro Mountain Road.

The pass, which connects the towns ofWillsboro and Chesterfield along with Exit33 of the Adirondack Northway, will be re-paved this summer, according to DOT offi-cials.

The first two miles of the road were re-paved over the past two years, but the re-mainder of the project had been halted, withstate budget woes being blamed.

Hatch often spoke about the matter, andoffered resolutions as a member of the EssexCounty Board of Supervisors imploring thestate to take the matter seriously.

“This is a very dangerous road,” Hatchsaid. “The current condition is bad and itneeds to be addressed.”

Hatch said that he was pleased that thestate had finally decided to finish the workon the remaining five miles of WillsboroMountain.

“All of the letters and coverage by the lo-cal news have finally paid off,” he said. “Weare grateful to those who kept this issue outthere in the public eye.”

Work on the project will be starting July 9and is expected to be done in a short periodof time. Motorists can expect delays duringthe project, as some lanes may be reduced insize and alternating one-way traffic may alsobe used by DOT workers.

Funding became available after Gov. An-drew Cuomo announced the creation of a $15billion Works Program though the FederalTransportation Jobs Act.

Dissolution study optionsoutlined at public meetingBy Keith [email protected]

KEESEVILLE — While the consultants presented two ver-sions of a Keeseville without government, it may have beenthe third that raised the most eyebrows.

Consultants Peter Fairweather and Tim Weidmann pre-sented two options during the May 23 public meeting of theKeeseville Dissolution Committee, each with a different out-come when it came to any potential (or lack of) savings fortaxpayers.

“The first is one would have all non-redundant servicescontinue and be paid for by the former village properties, ba-sically looking like the world does now but without a villageentity,” Weidmann said, adding that it would lead to tax rateincreases for properties inside the former village district.

According to their “most likely” figures, the tax rate for avillage resident living in the town of Ausable would increaseone percent and a village resident in Chesterfield would in-crease 3 percent. Both town tax rates would decrease signif-icantly (19 percent in Ausable, 18 percent in Chesterfield).

“We have commonly agreed that no one likes this option,”Weidmann said. “No one wants an option where their taxesgo up.”

Under the second options, special districts and otherspending would be combined into the budgets of the twotowns. Under that option, village residents in Ausable andChesterfield would see significant decreases to their tax rates(38 and 47 percent, respectively), while the towns would alsosee a savings thanks to added state funding revenue for con-solidation services (9 and 10 percent).

“We were able to determine an amount of savings in eacharea based on how similar the services are,” Weidmann said.

After the consultants presented their options, however,Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow added a third thatwould show even further savings, stating that he felt the con-sultants had been too conservative.

“I went through each one of these items and I know thatwe can do it for even less then they are saying,” Morrow said.“We do not need to add any new people at the town or anynew expenses to keep these services available.”

One service that would no longer be provided under eitheroption two or three would be garbage pick up.

“The committee came to a decision that it was somethingthat could be removed,” Weidmann said.

With all three options, Weidmann said that there would bethe elimination of village jobs. Also, any village debts, includ-ing retirement and other legacy costs, would carry over ontoonly the village taxpayers.

Fairweather said that through the process, the group triedto look at as many options as possible.

“We are looking at all of the options that we feel are outthere,” Fairweather said at the meeting. “There are a lot ofdifferent ways to look at a study like this and the question isnot just about should the village dissolve or not.”

“These are all educated guesses because this is the futureand you cannot predict that,” Weidmann said.

The consultants said that they looked at three questionswhile doing the draft study: services that are currently pro-vided that would no longer be provided in a dissolution ofthe village government, how much the remaining serviceswould cost the towns and how should those remaining serv-ices be paid for.

The Keeseville Dissolution Committee next meets onThursday, June 28, at 5 p.m. at the village hall to further re-vise the dissolution study and move toward the beginningphases of a dissolution plan, which takes one option andbuilds a plan for the elimination of village services around it.


UPPER JAY — A dispute over the damagedone to the Upper Jay firehouse that ap-peared to be headed to court has been settledthrough the help of Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

The governor ’s office announced June 13that a deal had been reached through theState Insurance Fund between the Town ofJay, the Upper Jay Volunteer Fire Companyand the insurance company VFIS that willallow the company to rebuild and relocatetheir facilities.

“This takes the roadblocks out of the way,”Jay Supervisor Randy Douglas said. “Now,the Upper Jay Fire Company will be able tostart the process of applying for FEMA fund-ing and relocating.”

The firehouse, located along Route 9Nalong the East Branch of the Ausable River,was destroyed by flood waters from TropicalStorm Irene Aug. 28 of last year.

Following the devastation, the Jay codeenforcement officer concluded that the dam-age to the building was greater than 50-per-cent of the appraised value of the site, whichwas disputed by the insurance company,which had started to file for legal action be-fore the settlement was reached.

Because of the lawsuit, the insuranceclaim was held up, which was needed by thefire company to pursue FEMA funding to re-

place their facility.“They have to have the insurance settle-

ment claim to submit to FEMA before thatcan take that next step,” Douglas said. “Thisresult that the governor was key to boths set-tles the potential lawsuit and allows the firecompany to move forward with the claim.”

Along with the claim, the fire company

will also be able to move the firehouse fromits current location to Valley Road.

“The current building is on the 100-yearflood plane and has been flooded numeroustimes, but never anything like this,” Douglassaid. “The fire company has been looking ata piece of land on Valley Road and can nowstart the process to get there.”

Douglas said that FEMA and state repre-sentatives would be in the region next weekto survey the damage throughout Upper Jay,including the firehouse.

The deal was reached through the State In-surance Fund and the governor ’s office.

“I saw firsthand the destruction that Hur-ricane Irene caused in Upper Jay and otherlocal communities in the North Country,”Cuomo said in a prepared statement. “I ampleased that the state was able to help in thisagreement that will allow for the firehouseto be moved to a new location, and save tax-payers from having to foot the bill thatwould have accompanied litigation.”

“Gov. Cuomo and his administration havebeen enormously helpful and supportive,and their work to forge this agreement is an-other example of that commitment,” StateSen. Betty Little said. “Our first responderswere heroes during and in the days andweeks following the storm. I’m very pleasedto see Upper Jay moving closer to havingtheir firehouse operational again.”

“This is another example of the coopera-tion Gov. Cuomo has fostered to assist ourNorth Country communities in rebuildingafter Tropical Storm Irene,” State Assembly-woman Teresa Sayward said. “The Upper JayFire Company will be able to rebuild in a safelocation and continue to provide the dedi-cated service to the community that theyhave done for generations.”

Lindine wins Leadville qualifierWILMINGTON — Justin Lindine (New

Salem, Mass.) was the first rider to cross thefinish line, taking top honors in the secondannual Wilmington/Whiteface 100K moun-tain bike race (WW100) held Sunday, June17, at Whiteface Mountain, in Wilmington.Lindine completed the 69-mile long race infour hours, 19 minutes, 15.97 seconds.

The finish earned the pro cyclist his sec-ond trip back to the Leadville 100 MTB(LT100), where he was 28th overall last year.

“This was an awesome race and compet-ing here has been a goal of mine all seasonlong,” said the winded Lindine followingthe race. “I wanted to go back to Leadville,so winning here was a sure way of doingthat.”

Last year ’s inaugural WW100 race meas-ured 57 miles, but an additional 12 mileswere added to this year ’s event, which fea-tured a combination of single track, dirt andpaved roads, jeeping trails and back countryroads.

“The race and the distance felt a lot likeLeadville,” remarked the women’s firstplace finisher Rebecca Rusch (Ketchum, Ida-ho), who has won three times in Leadville.“All the way through it’s a super toughcourse, especially when you get to the ski re-sort, all the ups and downs are challenging.

“It’s really a good course, a great townand the people are so supportive.”

Rusch completed here race in 5:02:28.29and was 21st overall. The out and backcourse took the field of 358 cyclists throughthe northern New York towns of Wilming-ton, Jay, Keene, Lewis and Elizabethtownbefore returning to the Olympic mountainfor a final climb of 2,500 feet. The cyclistsalso tackled two additional mountainclimbs, Jay Mountain and SaddlebackMountain, not once, but twice and both ofthese climbs were more than 750 metersapiece.

“Fortunately for me this is my type ofcourse,” added the men’s second place fin-isher Dereck Treadwell (Laurens, N.Y.), whowas clocked in 4:22:22.56. “I do pretty wellon the climbs and I seemed to handle the up-hills here pretty well, I think it’s because of

my running and triathlon background.”In only his third-ever mountain bike race,

2010 Olympic Nordic Combined championBill Demong (Vermontville) finished fifthoverall. Demong, whose first career moun-tain bike race was the LT100 last year, wherehe was 34th, finished in 4:42:32.67.

“That was brutal,” he said afterward.“Coming down Whiteface, I was saying I’mgoing to be happy when this is over. I’m su-per psyched that I finished fifth. I was un-der the impression that this was a 62-milelong race and I learned only this morningthat the race was actually closer to 70-milesthat was a little shocking.”

Seventy of Sunday’s athletes are nowmaking plans to race in the Aug. 11 LT100.Thirty-five of the LT100 qualifying spotswere awarded based on performance in eachdivision for men and women, and the other35 were distributed randomly from a pool ofall racers, who finished under the maximumcutoff time, which was eight hours.

North Elba approves items for Ironman, RR trail, dog control officerBy Andy [email protected]

LAKE PLACID — Members of the NorthElba Town Board Tuesday, June 12 made de-cisions regarding the multi-use trail alongthe train tracks through Ray Brook, IronmanLake Placid and the dog control officer.

Town Board members approved a five-year host agreement for Ironman LakePlacid, a world-class triathlon held heresince 1999. It is the second oldest Ironman inNorth America.

The event, scheduled for July 22 this year,features a 2.4-mile swim on Mirror Lake,112-mile bike race through the towns ofKeene, Jay and Wilmington, a 26.2-mile runand a finish at the Olympic Speed Skating

Oval. It is operated by the World TriathlonCorp., based in Florida.

“We are recognized as one of the mostpopular (Ironman) events, and so we have avery good arrangement with them,” Super-visor Roby Politi said. “Lake Placid’s verypopular, the athletes love to come here, andIronman recognizes that and wants to con-tinue.”

The Ironman contract now needs approvalfrom the village of Lake Placid and the Re-gional Office of Sustainable Tourism(ROOST). Jim McKenna, executive directorof ROOST, told the Essex County Board ofSupervisors June 11 that Ironman brings in$50-$60 million of direct spending to thetown of North Elba over the life of the five-year contract. That doesn’t include econom-ic multipliers or sales tax revenue.

Town Board members June 12 also decid-ed to enter into contract negotiations withCreighton Manning Engineering for the de-sign of the Lake Placid to Saranac Lake Mul-ti-use Trail along the railroad tracks.Creighton Manning has worked on a num-ber of local projects, including the U.S.Olympic Training Center, Adirondack Re-gional Airport and the unit managementplans for Whiteface and Gore mountains.

The multi-use trail along the railroadtracks has been a contentious issue, withmembers of the recently formed AdirondackRecreational Trail Advocates (ARTA) in fa-vor of tearing up the tracks and creating amulti-use recreational trail from Lake Placidto Old Forge. The town, however, is movingforward with a trail adjacent to the railroadtracks between Saranac Lake and Lake

Placid, which are currently used in the sum-mer by a tourist train operated by theAdirondack Scenic Railroad.

In other business, Town Board membersdecided to hire former Lake Placid PoliceChief Scott Monroe as the town’s new dogcontrol officer for $10,000 a year. This will bea one-year contract, and he will be an inde-pendent contractor.

“I think he’s a great choice,” said Council-man Jay Rand.

This won’t cost the town extra money, asthe dog control officer funds have alreadybeen budgeted for 2012. The position will becovered by the town’s insurance. And allcalls will be handled through the village dis-patch so they can be properly documented.

“We don’t want people calling Scott athome,” Councilman Bob Miller said.

Although the recentweather patternshave been decidedly

summer-like, the actual sum-mer season did not officiallybegin until Wednesday, June20th. It seems like we havebeen enjoying summer sinceMarch!

However, for many eageranglers the true summer actu-ally arrived just a few daysago, with the Opening Day ofbass season on Saturday, June16th.

Bass fishing, like apple pie and the Fourth of July, hasbecome an American tradition. Bass are one of the mostwidely distributed of all freshwater game fish species, andthey are to be found almost anywhere there is water and aforage base.

In fact, Andy Griffith and Opie opened the popular tele-vision program Mayberry RFD, while toting an impressivestringer of bass back from the fishing hole. Bass, Bubba,and beer, these are American traditions.

Alaska is the only state in the union without a bass pop-ulation, which is too bad because bass can actually befished through the ice. Hawaii received the state’s firstbass when they arrived by boat, likely while being trans-ported for introduction into Japan in 1925. That was theyear Akabishi Tetsuma, a Japanese businessman shippedover seven-dozen largemouth bass from California’s

Ashino Lake for introduction to the island nation.Although American servicemen that were stationed in

Japan after the war enjoyed the opportunity to fish forbass, the non-native fish is still considered an invasivespecies. Many Japanese anglers would prefer to see iteliminated.

It is an unfortunate perspective, since it was a Japaneselargemouth bass that captured the current world recordlargemouth, when a 22-pound, 5-ounce largemouth wastaken from Lake Biwa on July 2, 2009.

The monster largemouth fell for a live bluegill on areservoir near Tokyo that was offered up by Japanese an-gler, Manabu Kurita. His catch topped the historic worldrecord by only one ounce.

George Perry had established the bass World Record onGeorgia's Montgomery Lake way back in June 2, 1932. Itwas, and still is one of angling’s oldest remaining worldrecords.

There’s still a lot of controversy surrounding the issue.Even though the Japanese largemouth tipped the scales at22 pounds, 5 ounces, which topped the current bass recordby a full ounce, the International Game Fish Associationrequires potential record fish to outweigh the old recordby at least 2 ounces. The IGFA, which certifies game fishrecords worldwide, ruled the record a tie, and now, bothfish jointly hold the World Record.

When Manabu Kurita was awarded the World Recordfor Largemouth Bass in 2009, it constituted the secondtime in five years that a Japanese angler had intruded on ablue blooded, American tradition.

The first occasion happened in Plattsburgh, NY, whenJapan finally topped the United States at it’s own game.Short of knocking off the New York Yankees in the WorldSeries, there had never been such an upset in modern daysports.

The initial incident occurred on June 24, 2004, whenShinichi Fukae of Osaka, Japan, the reigning Japan BassAngler of the Year, made professional bass fishing history

by fending off his closest American challenger to win thecoveted Land O’Lakes Angler of the Year title. Fukae’swin marked the first time in the 36-year history of profes-sional bass fishing, that someone earned angler of the yeartitles in two countries, and it occurred on Lake Champlainof all places.

Is it any wonder that Gary Yamamoto manufacturesSenko’s, which have rapidly become the most popular, andlikely the most productive softbait ever? Maybe the USshould never have allowed either baseball, or bass to betaken out of the country.
