WEST CHAZY — When entering theschools of the Beekmantown SchoolDistrict, it may be difficult to see thechanges that have taken place in thepast few months. However, from newfloor tiles, to additional security cam-eras, to a new roof, the changes havebeen many — and were said to be well-needed.

“It’s not really what a lot of peoplesee ... but the upgrades to the facilitywere needed,” explained project repre-sentative Don Strong, a former BCS em-ployee. “The state of New York sup-plied us the money to do it.”

The plans for the renovations of thefour schools in the district — Cumber-land Head Elementary School, Beek-mantown Elementary School, Beek-mantown Middle School, and Beek-mantown High School — began in 2008,following the approval of the district’sbudget plan, which is required to re-ceive money from the state.

“We presented to the voters last yeara proposition for approving $6,655,455towards the EXCEL project,” explainedsuperintendent Scott A. Amo. “That re-quires voter approval, however voterapproval on it did not increase theamounts of money the taxpayers wereresponsible for, because it was avail-able through the state.”

EXCEL, which stands for Expandingour Children’s Education and Learn-ing, “provides funds from the state tooffset costs relating to health and safe-ty projects,” according to the proposi-tion provided by BCS.

According to Amo, every five years,the school is required to submit a FiveYear Capital Improvement Plan to thestate.

“We forecast out what our improve-ment needs are, such as when war-ranties are up on roofs, the plumbingand heating, et cetera,” said Amo.

With the financial support from EX-CEL, the district was able to tackle allthe safety-related issues the schoolfaced.

Safety is one of the major considera-tions by EXCEL in order for schools tobe approved for the money. Others in-clude education technology, energy,physical capacity expansion, and ac-cessibility. Additionally, expansionand accessibility were taken into con-sideration by the middle school whenthey asked to have an additional serv-ing line in the cafeteria.

“Generally, what I’m hearing fromthe principals as well as the food serv-ice director, Roxann Barnes, is that thestudents are quieter in general goingthrough and in the cafeteria,” saidAmo. “They’re certainly getting servedquicker, which cuts down on any of thein-line discipline issues that might oth-erwise arise while you’re waiting yourturn to get fed.”

The school also saw some major up-grades to the football field, althoughthe EXCEL project did not help pay forit.

“The whole project started off with arequest again for separate propositionpresented to the voters last spring,” ex-plained Amo. “Whether or not theywould be willing to take money from

our fund balance and apply it directlyto the purchase and installation of thebleachers.”

Due to safety concerns, the bleachershad to be taken down last year at theconclusion of the football season.

“With going to the voters we saw anopportunity to take down the oldwooden structure that was the pressbox and match it with the design, at-tach it to the bleachers,” Amo ex-plained.

Other additions to the field includenew sod and fencing.

“The comments so far have beenvery, very positive,” added Amo.

The football field is now completeand the EXCEL projects are nearingcompletion.

“We’re waiting right now for our 800kilowatt generator,” said Strong.“We’ll become a shelter and we’ll ....have kitchen facilities.”

Strong explained the school is nowset up in case of emergencies like theIce Storm of 1998.

“Let’s face it, something like thatmay never happen again, but we justplug the fuel into it and away we go,”he said.

With the end of the projects in sight,Amo was very appreciative of the workdone.

“A tip of the hat to our buildings andgrounds staff who just did an incredi-ble amount of work this year,” he said.

Do you feel there is excessive spending in government?

The day hardly goes by without someone mentioningH1N1, also referred to as “Swine Flu.” Whether it isH1N1 or seasonal flu, a few simple steps will go a

long ways in helping to prevent getting the flu. Protect your-self by following a few simple steps:

• Get your flu shot

• Wash your hands often with soap and warm water. Al-cohol-based hand cleansers are also effective

• Avoid people who are ill

• Stay home if you are sick

• Use tissues when you cough, sneeze or spit, and disposeof the tissue in a covered trash bin

• Keep hands away from your face. Avoid touching youreyes, nose or mouth

• Clean shared space and items such as telephone receivers,steering wheels, and other shared items and/or equipment

• Refrain from sharing personal items such as forks,

spoons, toothbrushes andtowels

Although these all seemlike common sense sugges-tions and quite simple, we toooften forget to follow them inearnest.

Remember, the best pre-ventive medicine is to simplyfollow good sanitary meas-ures every day and to assist inthe prevention of seasonal fluby getting your annual flu shot.

The use of lithium-ion battery technology has growntremendously in many devices from laptops to pow-er tools and now electric cars. Batteries made with

the technology are shown to have some advantages over pre-vious technologies such as nickel-cadmium and nickel-metalhydride.

Batteries produce electric power because of the reaction be-tween the anode and cathode. What mainly separatesrechargeable from disposable batteries is the anode/cathodereaction is easily reversed in rechargeable batteries but not indisposable ones. The reversing of the charge is exactly whatcharges the rechargeable battery and is due to the materialsused in the battery design.

The materials are also what separate the many rechargeablebattery technologies. The name of each technology type oftenrefers to the materials used or the main material used. Lithi-um-ion batteries use lithium, nickel-cadmium batteries usenickel oxide hydroxide with a cadmium electrode and soforth. The materials used also play a big part in creating char-acteristics such as charging time, self-discharge, the numberof charge/discharge cycles and more.

Lithium-ion battery use has grown because the battery islighter than other types and does not display the “memory ef-fect” nickel-cadmium batteries display. They also sit on the

shelf much better. On thedown-side, they lose capacityover time of about 20 percenta year or more if subjected tohigher temperatures regular-ly.

Two companies have im-proved on the lithium-ion de-sign. Sony has produced abattery using an olivine-typelithium iron phosphate whileToshiba has the SCiB with anadvertised life span of 6,000 charge/discharge cycles and arecharge to 90 percent capacity time of five minutes. Whilethe SCiB has an overall lower output, imagine an electric carthat could be plugged in and almost completely recharged inthe time it takes to have a cup of coffee.

Last week, I introduced you to some of the fun waysshoppers can make “Buy one, get one free” (BOGO)sales even more rewarding. Anytime we can buy one

item and get another free, we’re essentially buying two at halfprice each. So how do we make a half-off sale even better?With coupons, of course! Here’s the third “best-kept secret”of couponing:

Use two coupons during a BOGO saleAt most stores, you can use one coupon per purchase. Even

though you’re buying one item and getting another “free,” it’snot truly free. You still have to go through the act of “pur-chasing” it at the register (the store won’t allow you to justpick up the “free” jar and take it home, will they?) If you livein an area that collects sales tax on groceries, you must stillpay sales tax on the “free” item.

So, it’s best to think of BOGO sales as buying two for theprice of one. As long as you’re buying two items, even if oneis full-price and one is free, you can use a coupon on each itemyou’re buying. You’re buying two items, so you can use twocoupons.

Here’s an example illustrating why this is a great idea. Mygrocery store has organic pasta sauces on sale for $3, “Buyone, get one free.” And even though the register rings themup as $3 for the first jar and $0 for the second, it is still possi-ble for me to present a coupon on each jar for additional sav-ings.

For this sale, I have two $1 coupons for the pasta sauce. Us-ing one coupon for each jar I purchase brings my cost downto just $1 for two jars, or 50 cents each! That’s a great price forany pasta sauce, especially organic.

Now, many grocery storeshandle BOGO sales different-ly. With a sale like the one Ioutlined above, most stores’registers will ring the sale asone $3 jar and one $0 jar. Oth-er grocery stores may ap-proach the same BOGO saleby ringing up each item at$1.50 each. Either way, youcan still use a coupon on eachitem and get each jar of pastasauce for 50 cents.

Are you ready for a bonus tip? If your store “splits” BOGOprices into half for each item, you only have to buy one of theitems to get it for that price! So, if you only had one pastasauce coupon, you could buy just one jar, get it for the $1.50price, use a $1 coupon on it, and still take it home for 50 cents.

To determine which way your store handles BOGO sales,look at your receipt the next time you buy items promoted ina BOGO sale. If the register rings one at full price and one atzero, you must buy two to receive the price. If it rings eachone at half of full price, you will be able to buy just one of theitems involved in the sale and receive it for half the price with-out buying the second item.

When I was 18, I couldn’t get enough of “Three DaysGrace” self-titled album — especially the song “IHate Everything About You.” From the slow

acoustics at the beginning to the all-out rage the lead vocalistbrings forth in the chorus, I listed to the song on repeat throughthe summer of 2003.

I have fond memories of that summer, which was in betweenhigh school and college. Even to this day, when I hear that song,I think back to the end of my teenage years.

This feeling is exactly what composer and pianist Adrian Carris hoping to bring back to people in the Northern Tier.

Carr received a decentralization grant from the New YorkState Council of the Arts earlier this year, and used some of itto create a music appreciation club. As someone who is alwayslistening to music, I immediately decided to write an articleback in February in hopes of attracting more people to the club.I visited Dodge Memorial Library in Rouses Point Feb. 24, where Carr was dis-cussing with the club how to interpret music in movies. I was hooked.

I had brought my “Dirty Dancing” soundtrack along, thinking I may as wellparticipate in the discussion to get a true sense of what the club was about. Bydiscussing the songs from the album, I was able to appreciate the soundtrackI’d listened to for so many years, so much more.

I returned to the club twice more, becoming more and more interested in mu-sic every time. The club took a hiatus during the summer, but is returning to the

library this Tuesday, Sept. 29 at 7 p.m., where Carr hopes totransport people back to when they were 18.

“Everybody has great memories of music they listened towhen they were a teenager,” said Carr. “It doesn’t matter whenyou grew up, everybody has a great memory of a song when youwere a teenager.”

Carr hopes people will attend the aptly-named “Music Ap-preciation Club,” and bring their favorite album or song fromwhen they were 18 — to find a commonality of what made mu-sic so great as a teenager.

“By the time you’re 30,” said Carr, “you don’t have the samefeeling about the music, so let’s go back to when we were 18 andfigure out what was really great about this and maybe we an getin touch with that again and create a little more interest now.”

As someone who plans on attending the club once again, Istrongly encourage people to participate. It’s enjoyable for all

ages and is an open discussion. Carr encourages people to bring CDs or MP3s. The library does not have a

music system that operates cassettes or records.For more information about the club, call the library at 297-6242.

“Our little group likes to get together to do thingsfor charity and we thought this would be a great op-portunity to do something in our backyard,” saidBurger.

Burger joined friends Cathie Davenport, GinaDoty, Jane Emerson, Sherry Jubert, Ann Maynardand Sheryl Patch in machine-piecing the quilt, sheexplained. Friend Carole Meier then machine-quilt-ed the creation. In all, Burger estimated the womenput 850 hours of combined labor into the quilt.

That dedication was driven by each woman’s ap-preciation for the Glenwood Cemetery, she said.

“It’s such a beautiful place. There’s so much his-tory in terms of the families who are interred there,”said Burger. “This is just our way of doing some-thing that benefits our community. This project hasmade us feel very good.”

Marshall E. Maynard, president of the GlenwoodCemetery Association board of directors, said it was

a pleasant surprise to learn the ladies were interest-ed in helping the association in such a way.

“We’re always short of money. We simply take inless than we have to spend,” said Maynard. “I wasvery happy when they told me they were doing thisquilt for us.”

The group has begun selling raffle tickets for thequilt, to which the community has already begun togive an overwhelming response, she said.

“We initially had 500 tickets printed,” said Burg-er. “We ended up having to print more because weran out.”

Raffle tickets are being sold through the month ofOctober and may be purchased for $5 each or inbooks of six for $25, with all proceeds benefiting thecemetery association. Tickets may be purchased bycontacting Burger at 846-3255, Maynard at 846-7561,Jean Yakey at 298-5161, Mary Gordon at 236-5682, orBeverly Maynard at 298-3813 or 846-7390.

The exact date of the drawing has yet to be final-ized, but will be published in an upcoming editionof the North Countryman.

Oakland, a two-year-oldGerman Shepherd withthe Champlain ValleySearch and Rescue K9Unit, was recently injuredduring a training exercise.The cost of a surgery torepair his severely tornAchilles tendon and reha-bilitation is estimated atas much as $5,000.

By Jeremiah S. [email protected]

KEESEVILLE — Oakland is asearch dog who spends his daystraining to save the lives of others.Now, he’s the one who needs saving.

The 2-year-old German Shepherdis part of the Champlain ValleySearch and Rescue K9 Unit, an inde-pendent, nonprofit organizationbased in Keeseville. Recently, Oak-land was performing advanced ob-stacle training when he fell and severely tore hisAchilles tendon, said Shannon Bresett, a dog handlerand co-founder of the search and rescue unit.

Bresett and her husband, Christopher, a fellow doghandler and co-founder of the unit, were in theAdirondack Mountains with Oakland and other dogsfrom the unit on a routine training exercise when theinjury occurred, she explained.

“We noticed he had a slight limp, but we didn’tthink much of it because that happens from time totime on exercises,” she said. “Then, we noticed hewould not put any pressure on his leg whatsoever.”

Bresett and her husband took Oakland to a veteri-narian for further examination where it was foundOakland had a severe tear in his Achilles tendon.

“It’s not completely severed, because if it were,he’d have no control over it,” said Bresett. “He cankeep it upright, but it’s hanging on by a thread.”

Though Oakland hasn’t shown signs of being inpain — as much as a dog can show, said Bresett — hewill need surgery to correct his injury. Estimates re-ceived show the surgery will cost approximately$2,500, with necessary rehabilitation therapy bring-ing the expense to nearly $5,000.

“I have no problem putting that much money intohim,” said Bresett, “it’s just being a nonprofit, we runprimarily on donations and mainly on fundingthrough our own pockets.”

While their main concern is for Oakland’s well-be-ing, said Bresett, the search and rescue unit does de-

pend on the service dogslike Oakland can provide.And, considering the unitof seven dogs and eight vol-unteers serves a 100-mileradius from the village ofKeeseville — extendingnorth to the Canadian bor-der and south to WarrenCounty and to points in be-tween — Oakland’s surgeryis crucial, she said.

“It’s just amazing thatone dog equals the efforts of about a hundred peo-ple,” said Bresett. “Even volunteer organizations likethe fire departments realize that if you let the dogsgo in first [in a search and rescue operation], you’recovering a lot more ground and the percentage tofind the person alive becomes greater.”

“Maybe I’m biased, but I think it’s an importantcause,” she added. “I’ve just seen the difference thathaving dogs on searches makes.”

Every day Oakland’s tendon remains unrepaired,the more difficult his surgery will become, said Bre-sett. And, without the full use of his now injured leg,he will essentially become unable to serve the unit,for which he was just recently nationally-certified.

“I think it’s important for people to realize thatwe’re a volunteer organization and though this issomething that’s like a hobby for us, we take it veryseriously,” Bresett emphasized. “We train these dogsat least four hours a day, plus work full-time jobs ...and we’re out there giving public presentations.Hopefully, we’re a service people will never have toutilize, but it’s good to know we’re there if they do.”

Those wishing to make a contribution to theChamplain Valley Search and Rescue K9 Unit towardOakland’s surgery may do so by sending tax-de-ductible donations in care of the organization to 27Beach St., Keeseville N.Y. 12944.

The slaughter of bass inLake Champlain

I just can't take standing by and notsaying something about the utter slaugh-ter of Lake Champlain’s bass population.

As you know I’m a native of Platts-burgh and have been scuba diving in thislake since 1963 and a scuba instructorsince 1974. Never in these past 40 yearshave I seen the amount of devastation tothe bass population as I’ve seen in thelast 3 years.

Not only are hundreds of smallmouthbass killed during EACH tournament,but hundreds are presently dying slowagonizing deaths on the bottom of the lake after each tourna-ment. These slow-dying bass have hooks and leaders still intheir mouths, with some of the leaders caught on the bottomholding these fish from free-swimming and finding food. It’spitiful to see them becoming malnourished and dying so slow-ly.

As divers we also see many bass with ripped gills andmouths trying to breath also dying slowly while laying on thebottom. Ever seen the way the tournament “champs” are hold-ing these fish for the photo op?

In addition to this, us divers are also noticing the “absence”of many bass in places where they once thrived. Why are theynot there? Because they’ve been pulled out of their native nest-ing sites and cruelly transported to their eventual deaths forweigh-in. What I’ve been personally noticing is that less andless bass are in the lake. We cannot simply pull out 8,000 bassin two weekends without severly devastating the population.We are literally killing the “golden goose” with so many ofthese tournaments. Can’t anyone else see this?

Every boater at the Plattsburgh Boat Basin knows that afterany still-living bass are released post weigh-in, they congre-gate under the boats at our marina. It’s then “fair game” for

any local fisherman to sit on the dock and literally fish thesebass until their buckets are full up. Again totally removingthese “breeders” from the lake.

In summary, here are my contentions:1) The bass tournaments are rapidly depleting the bass stock

in Lake Champlain. I predict that within 5 years there will beno more bass in Lake Champlain. By then the tournament or-ganizers will have found other lakes to ravage.

2) The “trophy” bass being wiped out are the “breeders”critical to the bass population’s future.

3) The immediate bass kills post-tournament are just the tipof the iceberg. Hundereds are dying slowly on the lake bot-tom with hooks and leaders still in their mouths. Many moreare dying slowly with destroyed gills and mouths.

I beseach the powers that be to begin limiting the amountand durations of these bass tournaments before there are nobass left in the lake. Such a shame it would be to totally wipeout one of the last native species of this lake in the name ofgreed.

P L AT T S B U R G H — T h eUpstate New York Tea Partyhas begun its movement toshake up Washington, D.C.

Coordinator Mark Barie ofRouses Point opened thefirst meeting of the UN-YTEA Party to a standing-room only crowd at thePlattsburgh-North CountryChamber of Commerce Sept.20. The meeting, set againstthe backdrop screen of theWeb site www.USDebt-Clock.org — which showsthe growth of governmentdebt by the second — drewmore than 140 people.

During the meeting, theUNYTEA group gave anoverview of the independ-ent political committee’smission to combat excessivegovernment spending andreduce taxes and the size ofgovernment. The groupplans to do so through letter-writing campaigns, sponsor-ing public debates, directmail efforts and TEA Partyrallies to “send a message to

their elected representativesin Washington,” noted Barie.

“We are a grassroots or-ganization of North Countryresidents who believe thatpartisan politics must giveway to common sense anddollars and cents,” Bariesaid. “We cannot spend ourway out of debt, nor shouldwe insist on taxing thosewho work in the name ofthose who won’t.”

The UNYTEA will joinnearly 750 other similarly-formed groups around thecountry who are not affiliat-ed with any political partybut who are concerned andfrightened about the direc-tion in which the country isheaded and believe theyhave a patriotic duty tostand up and make a differ-ence, as their forefathers didmany years ago.

The group is actively look-ing to build its membershipin the North Country, withthe goal of 1,000 members bythis time next year. Al-though, given the enthusi-asm of the participants todate, Barie said he wouldn't

be surprised reached thatnumber very quickly.

“We will work tirelessly toensure that we only sendthose individuals to Wash-ington,” Barie said, “regard-less of their party affiliation,who believe that those thatgovern least, govern bestand that the American sys-tem of Free Enterprise is theonly proven system of suc-cess for generations tocome.”

Recognition was given toJonathan Nelson, who iscredited with initiating thegroup first gathering in Trin-ity Park. Also introducedwere members of the steer-ing committee, which in-cluded Nelson, John Ianelli,Greg Laduke, Dr. John Mid-dleton, Kirk Stallsmith, JimWemett), and John VanNat-ten. In addition to the steer-ing committee, the group islooking for coordinators forevery county, town and vil-lage in the North Country.

The group also heard fromlocal individuals who at-tended a recent TEA Partyrally in Washington, D.C.with more than 1.5 millionpeople in attendance. Pic-tures of the rally and im-pressions of those in atten-dance were shared with thegroup.

The meeting closed withseveral individuals in theaudience adding comments,concerns an support to themission of the UNYTEA.

The group’s next eventwill be a healthcare forum tobe held tentatively Sunday,Oct. 4, in which all three can-didates for the 23rd Con-gressional District seat —Republication Assembly-woman Dierdre Scozzafava,Democratic Party candidateBill Owens and Conserva-tive Party candidate DougHoffman — have been invit-ed to attend. To date, onlyHoffman has accepted an in-vitation but the event isplanned to be held regard-less of the other candidates’attendance.

Recognizing Samuel de ChamplainThe 400th anniversary of Samuel de Champlain’s discovery of thelake that bears his name was celebrated as the town of Crown Pointhosted a rededication of its renovated Champlain Memorial Light-house Sept. 19. The rededication was considered to be the high-light event of this year’s Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricen-tennial celebration, which also recognizes explorer Henry Hudsonand engineer and inventor Robert Fulton. A bust by French sculp-tor Auguste Rodin adorns the front of the lighthouse, and was agift to the people of the Champlain Valley from France when thelighthouse was originally dedicated. It was built in 1858 and con-verted into a monument to the French explorer and dedicated in1912. The work by Rodin, called “La France,” was recently re-moved, restored and replaced on the lighthouse with enhancedsecurity measures. It was part of a $2 million renovation project atthe lighthouse and adjacent pier. The dignitaries in attendance forthe rededication included Vermont state Gov. James H. Douglas,right, and New York State Environmental Conservation Commis-sioner Alexander B. “Pete” Grannis, at left. The two are seen sign-ing the international proclamation rededicating the lighthouse.Pierre Vimont, Ambassador of France to the United States, not pic-tured, also signed the compact.

Earlier this month,I visited TheWhitetail Summit

2009 hosted at the SportsDome in Queensbury.Although attendance lev-els were lower thanexpected, the eventoffered numerous highquality exhibits and awide range of interestingseminars. It was a goodstart toward building aquality show that willhopefully grow into anannual event.

I stuck around to attend The WhitetailSummit dinner sponsored by Trijicon andwatch as Vermont deer hunting legend, LarryBenoit, was inducted into the newly created,Whitetail Hall of Fame, as its first member.Benoit’s sons, Lanny and Shane, accepted theaward on their father's behalf.

Among the camo clad crew, one enthusiaststood out. Karen Turner, aka the VermontHuntress was notable for one simple reason.She was a female and she represents thefastest growing constituency among an everdiminishing breed of outdoor enthusiasts,hunters.

Whitetail deer are a hunter ’s equivalent ofbass. And like bass, whitetail deer are wide-ly distributed across most of the country.Relatively easily accessible, whitetails arethe most commonly hunted big game animalin North America. They are a blue collar ani-mal, the prey of Joe Sixpack.

Despite the fact whitetail deer are pursuedpredominantly by rural, white males, womenconstitute the fastest growing segment of thehunting fraternity today.

Over the past decade, an interesting andimportant trend has quietly taken placeacross the wild lands of North America.Women are taking to the woods in ever

increasing numbers. They pos-sess more effective outdoorskills and a greater level of con-fidence than ever before.

Hunting, fishing adventuresare no longer the exclusivedomain of the male of thespecies. Nor, in reality, werethey ever!

Women were the originalcampers, from the earliest days,in almost all corners of the earth.Aboriginal people relied onwomen to prepare shelters, tomake clothes, gather the water,cook the meals and tend to thenecessities essential to insure

survival of their people. Women made the decisions of when to

move and where to camp. Meanwhile, themen hunted and went to war. It’s not surpris-ing many Native American nations werematriarchal societies.

As ‘civilized’ society grew and matured, itevolved to the point where a women’s placewas considered to be the home, while themen were expected to roam. The wildernesswas considered a hostile environment to betamed. It was not a place fit for a lady.

Although numerous examples remain ofpioneer women taking to the woods, theAmerican society came to accept the factwoodland travel and wilderness adventureswere primarily a male dominated environ-ment.

The massive Brandreth Park, with over30,000 acres stretching from Raquette Lake toLong Lake, is considered the largest, singlefamily owned parcel in the Adirondacks.

From the turn of the century and well intothe 1900’s, a local hunter by the name of PaulBrandreth hunted these lands. Paul was aninternationally recognized expert on huntingwhitetail deer and wrote of his adventures inForest and Stream, Woods and Waters and

other national publications. He even pub-lished a book on hunting whitetails. It is stillconsidered one of the finest ever written onthe subject.

However, despite being one of the fore-most authorities on the topic, Paul neverattended the fabled New York SportsmanShow. He never set foot in the Explorers Clubnor shared a cigar with Teddy Rooseveltwhile recounting tales of the hunt.

The reason Paul Brandreth never shared inany of the common delights for a man of thehunt, was because he was a she. PaulineBrandreth wrote under the pen name Paul. Itwas the only way she could be published, forat the time, no one would believe a womanknew anything about hunting whitetail deer.

Luckily, for both genders, this attitude israpidly slipping into oblivion. Today, thereare female forest rangers, EnCon officers andfire jumpers. Women now rate highly ashunting and fishing guides, two pursuitsconsidered the bastions of traditional guidedadventures.

Women are also leading trips for whitewa-ter rafting, ski touring, backpacking, rockclimbing and ice climbing. They form thecore of wilderness education programs andrepresent nearly 72 percent of the member-ship of the National Association ofInterpreters, a professional organization ofcertified naturalists. Women now constitutethe majority of instructors teaching the nextgeneration about the out of doors.

Women have more opportunities today todevelop the skills and knowledge necessaryfor wilderness adventures. At the same timethey are acquiring these tools, they are alsoempowering themselves to better utilize thistraining, often while teaching others.

Additionally, as women began to takeadvantage of the opportunities to enjoywilderness adventures, the outdoor industrytook notice.

In 1984, Kelty, Inc., a premier manufactur-

er of backpacks, introduced the KeltyWoman, a backpack specifically designed forthe female frame. Kelty was one of the firstin the outdoor industry to recognize thepotential for manufacturing and marketingproducts specifically for women. Previously,women had to use smaller sized men’sequipment or products made for children.However, this equipment didn’t fit, feel orlook right.

How quickly the tide turned. Today,equipment technology features lighter,stronger materials that are easier to use andcarry. These products are more accessiblethan ever since they are often designed, man-ufactured and marketed by women forwomen.

Companies such as Browning, Marlin andRugar now produce firearms specificallydesigned and sized for women. So doesOrvis, LL Bean and a host of outdoor equip-ment and apparel manufacturers.

Furthermore, the advent of gender specificgear has made skill sets and technique moreimportant than brute strength. Materialssuch as kevlar have dramatically reducedproduct weight, while graphite hasimproved performance. Today, there aremore women paddling remote regions andcasting a flyrod than ever before.

Removing the ‘macho’ element from theoutdoor experience has opened new horizonsof adventure travel to a segment of the pop-ulation that is appreciative, considerate ofthe environment and in many cases, ‘just funto be with.’

Gentlemen be advised! The next time youencounter someone you thought was just a“Babe in the Woods,” keep an eye on her.You may learn a thing or two!

Women are now a strong presence in the outdoors
