ELIZABETHTOWN — A once-cancelled debate betweencandidates for Essex County District Attorney has been re-instated after a challenger agreed to participate.

Republican-endorsed candidate Kristy Sprague had orig-inally declined an invitation to participate in an Aug. 27 de-bate scheduled at Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School, cit-ing a desire to wait until after the Sept. 15 primary election.

After a conversation with Adirondack Daily Enterpriseeditor Peter Crowley, however, Sprague ultimately decidedto join the debate.

“When Peter Crowley called me I suggested to him thatthere may still be a forum that can be used on Aug. 27,” saidSprague. “He thought it a great idea, and I guess we are backon.”

Sprague said she was never opposed to a debate, but wasconcerned about getting information to voters, and espe-cially encouraging undecided voters to attend the debate.

“Open lines of communication and information sharingwas all we needed from the beginning to get a debate sched-uled,” said Sprague.

Incumbent Julie Garcia, who has won the endorsement ofEssex County Democrats, is still planning to run againstSprague in the Republican primary. She said she is delight-ed to hear there will be a debate.

“The timing is perfect as the debate is scheduled beforethe Sept. 15 primary election,” Garcia said. “As the Repub-lican incumbent, and in the interest of fairness, I want myopponent to have the opportunity to meet with the voters ofour county before the primary.”

A panel comprised of journalists from local news mediaagencies — including Denton Publications — will presentquestions to the candidates, some of which will be questionssubmitted by the public.

Both candidates said they are ready to present their majorpoints in public.

“We have implemented many changes in the DA's Officeover the last few years,” said Garcia. “I am looking forwardto discussing our achievements at the debate.”

“I am an open and up-front candidate that welcomes thisdebate with much enthusiasm and look forward to speakingto all of the voters of Essex County,” said Sprague. “I wouldlove for them to hear my views as the endorsed Republicancandidate and compare them to the views of my Democrat-ic opponent.”

With the beautifulsummer weath-er finally mak-

ing an appearance, manydog owners are taking theirhappy pups on long walksto enjoy the sun. It's impor-tant to keep in mind a fewrules of etiquette when tak-ing your dog into a publicplace. Here are a few tips:

When walking your dogin public, first keep in mindthat not everyone is a "dog" person - somepeople actively dislike or even fear dogs.Remember to respect the personal space ofnot only other dog walkers, but people ingeneral. Your dog should not be able tojump on them or sniff their legs unlessthey encourage his attention! Be used tocorrecting your dog if he does not walk inline with you. You should be in control ofyour canine friend - not the other wayaround!

Another reason it's so crucial to havegood control of your dog is that an en-counter between two dogs can turn badquickly - even if your dog is well-trained.If your dog starts to growl, don't just ad-monish it; get its attention through a quicktug on the leash and let it know that youwon't put up with that mood. If your dog

is having too much trouble,remove it from the situationas quickly as possible.

Finally, if possible, trainyour dog to use your yardas his bathroom - not theneighbor's yard or the localpark. If he does insist onmaking his deposits in pub-lic places, it is proper man-ners to clean up after him.Your dog can be encouragedto use your yard by offering

treats as rewards.Our featured pet this week is Angel, an

adorable cream-colored Chihuahua wholives up to her name. Angel's owner couldno longer care for her in hopes that shewould find a family to give her lots of at-tention and cuddles. She is a very petiteyoung lady who just wants to be loved.Despite her small size, Angel has a hugeheart with plenty of room for everyone inyour family. She wants nothing better to dothen lounge on your lap and love you for-ever.

If you haven't stopped by the shelter inawhile, please check our list of adoptablepets online, or come by to visit us in per-son! We may have exactly the best friendyou are looking for.

Well, the Fourth of July is nowbehind us and the summerevents will come along rapidly.

The parade in Essex was good and hadquite a few entries. The rain did not holdback for the entries or the bystanders. Weare very proud of the newly organizedgroup of musicians from Willsboro that ledthe parade off; great job. It is always greatto get to meet and see friends on this dayand renew friendships. I noticed therewere several out of town relatives back fora visit.

The days ahead offer some excitingevents that the public is encouraged to at-tend. The Willsboro United MethodistChurch will be holding a large food sale onSat. July 11 in front of the IGA Store start-ing at 9 a.m., and on the same day therewill be a Quilt Exhibit at the MethodistChurch, which starts at 10 a.m. Be sure tostop in and see the great hand work of lo-cal quilters. The Heritage Society is offer-ing a walking tour of Old Willsborough onSat. July 11 with Ron Bruno as the narratoron the tour. Those interested are to meet atthe Museum by 9 a.m. It goes until 12.There is no set charge but a donation aremost welcome.

The United Methodist Women have aguest speaker, Lori St. Germain, for theirJuly 14 meeting, 1 p.m. at the church. Ms.St. Germain will share her experiences as aU.S.O singer for the troops during theDesert Storm era. The Paine Memorial Li-brary’s Annual Meeting will be on Thurs-day, July 16 at 3:30 p.m. David Reutherwill share his experiences with Publishing

Well, a little rain didn't keep thecrowd away from our Fourthof July parade, or dampen any-

body's spirits as far as I could tell. It cer-tainly didn't stop our able announcer,Ernie LaPine, who had to ad-lib a littlewhen the registration papers about thevarious floats and vehicles got wet and hecouldn't read them. As Ernie told me, noone ever accused him of freezing up infront of a microphone.

Ernie even said he thought the crowdwas a little bigger this year than in yearspast.

"I thought it went great," he said. "Itseems to be growing over the years."

Ernie also pointed out that a lot of creditgoes to Carol Schwoebel, who took overorganizing the event a few years back,when it was in danger of being cancelled.So we all owe Carol a big thank-you, alongwith all the other volunteers (including herhusband, Jeff) who worked so hard tomake the day such a big success.

I'd say that I owe Carol a bigger thank-you than most, since I was lucky enough tobe offered a spot on the coolest ride of all,the gorgeous old 1919 Model-T firetruckthat is the pride of the Westport Number 1Hose Company. As someone who's neverhad any trouble at all getting in touch withhis inner child, I jumped at the opportuni-

ty, naturally.And let's not forget all the fun at Lee

Park after the parade. The canoe and trikeraces, plus the Ice Cream Social and Pro-fessor Marvel's magic show, courtesy ofthe Christopher Emmet Hallowell Fund,also had a bigger crowd than ever. Thosewho knew Christopher know what a won-derful way this is to honor the memory ofhis fun-loving and generous spirit.

That evening Ernie LaPine and othertale-spinners had a good crowd of childrenof all ages for Story Hour. Among thespine-tingling stories Ernie regaled themwith was one about Joseph Terry's grave,which can be seen up on Steele WoodsRoad.

If I've piqued your curiosity about thistale, come to Story Hour next year. I'msure Ernie can be persuaded to tell itagain.

But here's a story Ernie told me that Ican share with you. Did you see the twounicyclists in the parade? They were SteveGratto and his 11-year-old son, who hap-pened to be driving through town whenthey got caught in the line of cars stoppedfor the parade.

So what did they do? They got their uni-cycles out of the car and joined in. Steveeven juggled while he rode. How's that forad-libbing?

Angel

Gretna Strong Jerdo died on July4th and, once more, one of thestraight shooting, honest, long

time residents of Reber and Whallonsburghas left us. We remember Gretna and twin,Etna, as they grew and became the solidcitizens so important to this area.

I don’t know about some of you folk, butI like reading “letters to the editor.” Unlikemost newspapers which use pre-written ar-ticles, these letters tend to reflect local po-sitions, most often polemic, and sometimessingular. I always, like to grade them, like,I used to, like, grade college freshman pa-pers. Last week’s News had four letters.Three pulled down “passing grades;” theywere succinct and prepared without pre-tentiousness. The fourth got an F, becauseit committed the most egregious writingfault: plagiarism. The writer never identi-fied the source of his material. Shame,shame, Marx would have been upset atsuch sophomoric pandering.

M of the Old Burt writes that her hus-

band beats her whenever she tries to tellhim she doesn’t like to be beaten.

“He tells me he loves me and that beat-ing me is merely an expression of hislove,” she writes. She goes on to say “Henever listens to my cries of pain. How can Iget his attention?”

Dear M, the best way to get his attentionand change his indifference to you is to raphim with a six foot 2x4.

What a July 4th parade in Essex! Walkingpoliticians, 78 pounds of flying candy, thecontinuously improving Police Pipe Bandfrom P-Burg, shortcake with freshly pickedstrawberries, lotsa floats, and theMethodist Sunday School float with ourgrandchildren on it, which should havewon second prize, but was robbed. Lastly,the Firemen’s gut wrenching, heartburn-ing, sausage, onions and green peppers onbuns cooked with all natural organicgrease made any fireworks unnecessary.The other fireworks will be ignited on July11.

WESTPORT — The race ison for Westport’s highestelected position.

Real estate broker BruceWare has announced his can-didacy for Westport townsupervisor, a post that hasbeen held by Dan Connellfor the better part of adecade.

“I’ve been thinking aboutdoing this for a while,” saidWare, who frequently at-tends town, school, and oth-er community meetings.With his two children soonreaching adulthood, he sawthis as the appropriate timeto take a more active role.

“I realized that if youwant to set the agenda, youreally have to be at the headof the table,” he said.

Ware, 52, has lived year-round in Westport since 1989when he and his wife, Car-olyn, took over operations atErnie’s Market. In 1993 hebecame licensed in real es-tate and has owned WeichertRealtors Venture North As-sociates since 1996. This willbe his first run for an electedpublic office.

Ware said he’s noticed asteady loss of jobs in West-port over the past five years;a trend that he hopes to re-verse if elected.

“I’m alarmed at the waythings are going, and think Ican make a difference for thecommunity,” he said.

Ware said he’d like to

bring a more proactive ap-proach to town government,using his experience in busi-ness to attract more jobs andyear-round residents toWestport.

“I hope to get the commu-nity more involved withgovernment,” said Ware.“The taxpayers are con-cerned about how their mon-ey is being spent.”

If elected, Ware said hisplan is to continue as a realestate broker, but wouldtake a more hands-off ap-proach to selling homes. Hesaid he had difficulty imag-ining any situations wherethere might be a conflict ofinterests between the twopositions.

“My capacity as a realtoris really selling the town ofWestport to people whodon’t know it,” he said, not-ing that he could only bene-fit by improving conditionsin the town. “If there is aconflict, I think you have toidentify that, but I don’t pic-ture there being one.”

Ware will likely face offagainst another Republicanwho has thrown his hat intothe ring: Bruce Dunning.Ware plans to circulate peti-tions as an independent can-didate and will also seek theendorsement of the Conser-vative party.

“I have a lot of respect forDan Connell,” Ware added,“but I take exception to thedirection the town is going.I think the people want achange.”

Now in his fourth term,

Connell, 64, has put in hisbid for re-election and islooking to continue manag-ing some of the major proj-ects that he’s undertaken forthe town.

“Basically, I’m running onmy record,” said Connell, “arecord that I think shows alot of leadership in West-port.”

During Connell’s admin-istration, more than $10 mil-lion in grants and low-inter-est loans have been securedfor town infrastructure suchas parks and playgrounds,water and sewer systems,roads, and the architecturalplanning of a shared munic-ipal garage.

“All of the water and sew-er systems, we were told bythe state of New York we hadto do,” said Connell, addingthat spending control is an-other one of his major goals.He said that town staffinglevels have been cut by morethan a third to that end.

Connell said he hopes to

continue oversee the pro-posed hamlet expansion inWestport so that people whowant to settle in the townhave more space to buildhomes.

“If re-elected, I will con-tinue to work to control tax-es at both the town andcounty level,” said Connell,“and also to maintain the in-frastructure in the town ofWestport.

Connell, a retired EssexCounty Cornell CooperativeExtension agent, said he in-tends to remain a full-timetown supervisor if re-elect-ed, and will continue to de-bate issues he feels are im-portant at the county level.

“I think sometimes peopleforget that’s part of the job,”he said.

Letters to the EditorDefense of Morse not deserved

To the editor:(To the writer of last week’s letter to the editor entitled “Ar-

ticle on former supervisor appaling”)The title of your letter to the editor should have read "ap-

palling former supervisor." The previous incident you refer toso casually killed one woman and almost killed another. Dev-astated is what Mr. Anson was when he witnessed the murderof his sister and the serious injuries to his wife. Thanks to this“kind” man, Mrs. Anson never had a day without pain for thelast 23 years of her life. The appalling former supervisor does-n't deserve your defense.

I've mentioned before that dollar sales paired with dollarcoupons are one of my favorite ways to get free items at thegrocery store. Another easy way is through double-coupon

promotions.Double-coupon promotions are exciting! Many stores will

match a coupon's face value and pass the savings on to you, theshopper. Some stores double coupons every day, while others runspecial double coupon promotions certain days of the week ortimes of the year. In some cases, stores may even offer triple-coupon days. Regardless of how your stores handle doublecoupons, they are a great way to save even more money and getitems for free.

Here's how coupon doubling works. If you have a 50-centcoupon, the cashier will scan it at the register and give you $1 offyour item. Coupon doubling becomes even more fun when thedoubled value equals the value of the item you're buying. Let'ssay you are buying a 2-liter bottle of soda that was on sale for adollar. With a 50-cent coupon doubled to $1, your bottle of sodais free! The store matches the coupon's value of 50 cents and youpay nothing.

So what happens if your doubled coupon value exceeds thecost of the item? During a recent double-coupon sale at a majorretailer I purchased a $3.50 bottle of shampoo. I had a $2 coupon;the store doubled the coupon's value to $4. Now, as I've men-tioned in a previous column, many stores do allow what coupon-ers call overage, when the value of a coupon exceeds the cost ofan item. In the case of overage, the extra value is applied to therest of your total. However, stores that double coupons typicallydo not give overage. In this instance, the $2 coupon would dou-ble to a $4 value, but since the item is $3.50, the store will "adjustdown" the value to match the cost of the item, making it free.

It's important to check your store's policy on doublingcoupons, too. Policies on coupon doubling vary by store and re-tail chain. Some stores may double all coupons up to 50 cents or

$1. Other stores may doublecoupons up to $2. Some storeswill not double printable Inter-net coupons. Ask your store fora copy of its coupon policy, ei-ther at the store's service count-er or online via the store's Website.

What if your store doesn'tdouble coupons? Don't worry.You can still be a Super-Couponer even without doublecoupon promotions. I have no-ticed that double coupons tendto be a regional phenomenon.In many markets, grocery storesmay not offer double coupons at all. This is the case where I live,in the suburbs of Chicago, where major grocery stores simplydon't offer double coupons. In fact, to find grocery stores that of-fer double coupons I travel 40 minutes away from the city, so Irarely get to take part in these promotions. I shop every week at astore that does not offer coupon doubling, and I still do very wellat cutting my grocery bill significantly.

At least one major retailer has started offering double-couponpromotions nationwide during certain times of the year. They'redefinitely worth watching for! With the current state of the econ-omy, I would guess we'll see other retailers taking part in similarpromotions in the weeks and months ahead.

Double the Savings, Double the Fun

The phrase, The Boys of Summer was penned in abook about the 1950’s Brooklyn Dodgers.Mineville's Johnny Podres figured prominently in

finally bringing a World Series Championship to thebridesmaid Dodgers. Year after year, the Dodgers wouldrace out to a regular season championship only to lose tothe talent loaded Yankees or the much hated New YorkBaseball Giants. It was an era in which baseball enjoyed itsgreatest popularity. Perhaps that extraordinary popularitycame from the connection that people felt to the playersthat were often community members.

In many ways, the Boys of Summer, including JohnnyPodres, represented the last generation of professionalbaseball players that had a relatively ordinary life outsidebaseball. Professional baseball players like Duke Snyderand Gil Hodges lived in ordinary homes in local neighbor-hoods. There were no multi-millionaire baseball super-stars. There were superstars; however, the distance be-tween them and ordinary people was relatively smallwhen contemporary players are considered.

An elderly gentleman that I know told me a story thatexemplifies just how different players were from that era.He was at a ball game that featured the Brooklyn Dodgersand the New York Baseball Giants, though he wasn’t sureof the year. He sat behind the Giants dugout where LeoDurocher managed the team. Ed Stankey, the controversialsecond baseman is alleged to have shown up in the dugoutlate and not fully dressed to play. Durocher is said to havelined him out with volley after volley of excoriating curs-ing. Stankey was heard to say in response that he was latebecause he needed to mow the lawn at home. Stankey in-formed Durocher that he needed to return home to finishthe job before his wife kicked him out of the house.

Durocher would have noneof it and Stankey did playthat day.

The occurrence of aStankey-like event today inprofessional baseball is un-thinkable. While many base-ball players of the JohnnyPodres era worked a job inthe off season, that likeli-hood today is probably rare. Yogi Berra said in an inter-view that winning the World Series provided a strong fi-nancial incentive because if you won the World Series youdid not have to work in the off season. Some would saythat something important was lost when the Boys of Sum-mer passed into history. Some say the Boys of Summer arestill around.

As summer is upon us, Little League Baseball will takeplace in communities around Essex County. As fans andparents, attending games is a way to support our localyouth. While in attendance, remember that more innocenttime when the Boys of Summer called Ebbets Field home.Pictures of many of the players of that era, show themsmiling. It left you feeling that they were happy to playbaseball. Let our Boys of Summer enjoy baseball this sum-mer. Help to keep the smiles on their faces. Let the gamebe about them playing the game of baseball. Don’t make itabout you by criticizing umpires, coaches or players. Thesmell of freshly cut grass, the crack of the bat and the closecall at home, that’s baseball. Remember, all kids count.

the caller to services such aschildcare, mental healthprofessionals, food pantriesand government assistanceprograms.

During off hours, arecording will greet callerswith directions to call backduring regular businesshours.

“The service is reallythere to provide callers withthe information that theyneed to access services thatare available in our regionand close to their home,” ex-plained Bernardi, whoserved as chairman of asteering committee estab-lished by the United Way forthe system’s development.

When the committee firstbegan examining how thesystem would be estab-lished, various models andprototypes of programswere considered. The com-mittee ultimately decided to

contract with an existing callcenter in the Hudson Valleyregion to develop and oper-ate the service. The annualoperating cost of the systemis approximately $85,000 —a fraction of the estimated$350,000-$500,000 cost thecommittee found it wouldtake to establish and operatea new call center here.

The cost of planning anddeveloping the system wasfunded by a combination oflocal in-kind resources andthrough 2-1-1 New York, theorganization which facili-tates the implementation of2-1-1 systems. The overallcost to operate the system isbeing funded through acombination of public-pri-vate partnerships such asthe United Way, major giftsand endowments and statefunding.

Essex Town SupervisorRonald Jackson, who alsoserved on the steering com-mittee, said now the serviceis here, it will be a benefit to

all who use it.“It makes it easier for peo-

ple to get the informationthey need ... particularly intimes of crisis,” Jacksonsaid, referring to how the 9-1-1 system can sometimesreceive many nonemergencycalls. “It’ll help take some ofthe load off 9-1-1 and freethem up to focus on theemergency services forwhich they’re needed.”

“We believe this will be anextremely valuable servicefor residents throughout theregion,” added Bernardi,“not only for the day-to-dayhealth and human serviceneeds, but also in times ofdisaster when communica-tion and information be-comes even that much morecritical.”

In addition to the three-digit phone number, a toll-free number has been estab-lished in the unlikely eventservice through 2-1-1 is un-available. That number is 1-888-774-0289.

CROWN POINT — The aging ChamplainBridge that connects Crown Point with Ver-mont will be renovated or replaced beginningin 2013.

The New York State Department of Trans-portation has announced it has reached anagreement with the Vermont Agency ofTransportation on a $50.1 million project.

That’s goods news, Crown Point Supervi-sor Dale French said.

“It’s not in great shape,” French said of thespan. “There are some huge loads — 100,000pounds — that cross that bridge every day. Itlooks bad, but I guess it’s safe. The state keepschecking it.”

The bridge is owned by both New York andVermont, although New York has been en-trusted with the bridge’s maintenance. Undera prior agreement, the two states will sharethe cost of rehabilitation or replacement.

“The project is in a preliminary planningstage,” DOT spokesman Peter Van Keurensaid. “Construction is tentatively planned tobegin in 2013.”

HTNB Corporation of New York City hasbeen selected as design consultant. Optionsinclude rehabilitation or replacement of theexisting bridge.

The 80-year-old bridge accommodates ap-proximately 3,400 vehicles each day.

The existing structure is a combination of athru-truss, deck-truss and deck plate girdersmeasuring 2,184 feet in length on 14 spans.

The bridge received a “yellow flag” fromthe state in 2007 indicating it was in need ofrepair. Repairs to the bridge were completedin late 2008, and included removing looseconcrete, doweling reinforcement into exist-ing concrete and pouring new concrete piercaps. The “yellow flag” designation has sincebeen removed.

One of the first tasks the HTNB Corpora-tion will complete is an evaluation of the ex-isting structure to determine the feasibility ofrehabilitating the bridge, including cost ofthe work and potential impacts to motorists,

according to a DOT statement. All optionswill be identified and evaluated and publicinput will be solicited before progressing aparticular alternative.

A public advisory committee formed threeyears ago, consisting of representatives fromNew York and Vermont, will have a say in thefinal plans.

French serves on that committee. He ex-pects a fight between preservation groupswho want to save the historic bridge and oth-ers who want a new bridge.

“The preservationists will be the loudest,”French said. “But it would be really nice tosee a new bridge that would accommodatepedestrians and bicyclists.”

The advisory committee hasn’t met in morethan a year, French said, but when it did dis-cussions centered on a new bridge to be con-structed just south of the existing span. Thecurrent bridge would remain open two yearswhile the new one was built, French said.

A new bridge has two major advantagesover a renovation project, French said. Itwould be cheaper and it would allow for con-tinued traffic flow.

Because of its construction type, French,who is an engineer, said, the current bridgecan’t be repaired one lane at a time. It wouldhave to be renovated while closed.

“Closing that bridge would create a state ofemergency,” French said. “We have sharedemergency services across the lake, not tomention the economic impact.”

A temporary “military-style” bridge coulduse used during a renovation project, he said.That would interfere with lake traffic,though.

Public information meetings will be sched-uled during the project’s design phase to pro-vide an opportunity for community input.

The public can comment on the project byemailing [email protected], writing NYSDOT, RegionOne Design, 328 State Street, Schenectady12305, Attn: James C. Boni, P.E., or calling388-0200.

Willsboro roadconstructionin the works

By Matt [email protected]

WILLSBORO — With significant public outcry regardingthe condition of State Route 22 between Willsboro and I-87Exit 33, state officials are making it known that the road isnot being ignored.

A petition signed by 1,200 local residents calling for re-pairs to the road was recently submitted to state represen-tatives and state Department of Transportation officials.

Spokesman for Sen. Elizabeth Little’s office Daniel Ma-cEntee said, “Senator Little has had meetings about theneeded repairs of Route 22 and is trying to keep it high onthe list of DOT projects.”

MacEntee added that Little had pushed for the addition ofan expanded shoulder for use as a bike path, but that theclose proximity of the road to wetlands and other obstaclesmay make that an impossibility.

DOT spokesman Peter Van Keuren confirmed that thereare plans in the works to make repairs on the eight-mile sec-tion of road.

“We are currently investigating the need for pavement re-pair and shoulder repair,” said Van Keuren. “Our ability toaccomplish this work is heavily dependent upon our limit-ed resources and its other needs.”

Van Keuren said that project letting is slated for March2010 with construction expected to begin as early as May2010.

“The objective of the project is to correct the identifiedpavement deficiencies and restore the pavement to goodcondition and ride-ability, which will provide a service lifeof 12 years,” said Van Keuren. Other objectives include ad-dressing guard rail issues and rehabilitating drainage infra-structure.

“The 2005 Transportation Bond Act included $2 million forthis work,” he added. “Our intent is to design a project thataddresses the entire length, but will likely be broken intoshorter pieces for construction dictated by available fund-ing.”

Willsboro Central School hosted the Willsboro-Essex senior citizen luncheon in June. Students in Mrs. Eldred’s Family and Con-sumer Science class acted as waiters and waitresses for the luncheon.

ELIZABETHTOWN — Aproposal to get all elected of-ficials in line with health in-surance contributionssparked a heated debateamong Essex County supervi-sors July 6.

Moriah Supervisor ThomasScozzafava introduced a sur-prise resolution to addressthe issue of one board mem-ber refusing to make contri-butions for health insurancebenefits.

At the June 15 PersonnelCommittee meeting, St. Ar-mand Supervisor JoyceMorency admitted to beingthe only supervisor not mak-ing contributions after West-port Supervisor Daniel Con-nell initiated discussion onthe topic.

Connell argued thatMorency’s refusal to con-tribute may appear to be in vi-olation of the county’s board-approved employee policymanual, which requires con-tributions from both unionmembers and departmentheads.

Morency claimed that therequirement shouldn’t applyto elected officials, however;especially those who hadbeen serving since before con-tributions were first requiredin 1999. Having been in herpost since 1981, Morency iscurrently the longest-tenuredsupervisor on the board.

“The board knows that Ihave always gotten my insur-ance, and somewhere alongthe line many of them startedbeing told they had to payand they are,” she said at theJune 15 meeting. “I have beentold that I would be grandfa-thered in because of my yearsof devotion to Essex County.”

Scozzafava’s proposed res-olution would require “all

elected officials, both part-time and full-time” to con-tribute toward their health in-surance benefits in the samemanner as other county em-ployees. The resolutionpassed, but not without op-position.

“If we decide to give spe-cial treatment in regards tohealth care insurance, we’regoing to hear about it fromour constituents,” said Scoz-zafava, arguing that electedofficials in neighboring coun-ties, who have similar payand benefits, are also re-quired to contribute.

“It does make us look likeelitists when we are dis-cussing special policies forthe board of supervisors,”said Connell in agreement.

Randy Douglas, supervisorof Jay, said the resolution wasbeing introduced premature-ly and should instead bebrought up at the next meet-ing of the Personnel Commit-tee, which he chairs.

“I don’t think it should bedecided today,” said Douglas,saying he had been workingwith County Manager DanielPalmer and County AttorneyDan Manning to analyze thecounty’s policy.

“Why couldn’t this havebeen shared with col-leagues?” Douglas asked,criticizing Scozzafava for in-troducing the resolutionwithout warning.

Douglas moved to table theresolution, but the motion didnot garner enough support topass. Supervisors MichaelMcSweeney (D-Minerva),George Canon (R-Newcomb),Roby Politi (R-North Elba),Robert Dobie (D-North Hud-son), Lori Lincoln-Spooner(R-Willsboro), and RandyPreston (I-Wilmington) allvoted in favor of tabling.

County Manager DanielPalmer explained how thebenefits included in renegoti-

ated CSEA contracts are tra-ditionally adopted into thepolicy manual and apply toelected officials. The last revi-sions were made in 2005, andrecent changes in the contractare in the process of beingwritten into the manual.

“The intent was to make itequal for everyone,” Palmersaid.

Elizabethtown SupervisorNoel Merrihew called the res-olution unnecessary and re-dundant, saying it called forthe enforcement of a policythat was already in place.

“This is an issue we need toaddress,” Scozzafava coun-tered. “We have a policythat’s not being enforced for-mally across the board.”

Merrihew said Morencysimply wanted to review thelanguage in the policy manu-al to see if an exception couldbe made in her case.

“If it’s determined she’s notgrandfathered in, Ms. Moren-cy will contribute,” said Mer-rihew.

All board members presentvoted in favor of the resolu-tion with the exception ofCanon and Morency, whoboth abstained.

said or how he felt.”“We’re here now, stand-

ing on this stage, looking atour family and friends andwondering what we’ve got-ten ourselves into,” Whiteadded. “After this summer,our lives will be changedand we’ll be completely re-liant on everything we’velearned during our days atElizabethtown-Lewis Cen-tral School. Thank Godwe’ve been guided this far.”

White concluded, “It iswith great joy that we acceptour diplomas tonight, butour pride is in more than apiece of paper. It is in know-ing that we have come onestep closer to achieving ourdreams, and that is why weface you tonight not regretting the past, but looking forward to thefuture.”

Willsboro Central SchoolThe 26 graduates of Willsboro Central School reflected on mem-

ories they shared throughout their education.“It has been a long 13 years from kindergarten to our senior year,

but we seemed to make it through,” said salutatorian Kristen Ho-taling. “We have had some great memories both here at our newschool and back at the old school. This day is a once-in-a-lifetimeexperience for both ourselves and everyone who made it possible.”

Briana Reynolds, valedictorian of the class, read a speech basedon the alphabet.

“F stands for friends forever,” she said. “Our class is small andat one point you are friends with everyone, but it takes the badtimes to bring out the true friends that you’ll never forget no mat-ter where you go or who you meet.

“G stands for growing. As time passed, we each grew in manydifferent ways, but the biggest was growing up. No matter howmuch that happens, we will forever stay young.”

Keene Central SchoolThe Keene Central School Class of 2009 know that they are prod-

ucts of their hometown, and are prepared to take the next step.“Life is unexpected, just like the wilderness that is right outside

these doors,” said Reed. “Believe me when I say, despite how wellyou know the trail, you never know exactly what you will face.”

“From the beginning of your hike, there are bugs; in your ears,up your nose, in your eyes, in your mouth; biting, buzzing every-where. Occasionally you inhale them, and they just won’t leave.There is never any use for bug repellent because it never seems towork. There is always a really big fat horse fly that won’t stop both-ering you and even though you want to slap it, you don’t, you’rejust waiting for the right time.”

Valedictorian Alicia Ashe likened the class’s maturing to theprocess of boiling maple sap for syrup.

“We were the sap entering the school as five-year-olds,” she said.“The elementary teachers got us ready for what was coming in thenext years. The middle and high school teachers have been care-fully watching us and waiting for our brains to be filled with ele-

mentary knowledge so that they could soon have the opportunityto gather us.”

“It doesn’t always turn out the same,” Ashe added. “There aredifferent grades such as A, B, Dark, Light, or Fancy, but that’s okaybecause everyone has their own taste in syrup. Fortunately, every-one in the class is different; we all strive to do and experience var-ied things with our lives.”

“Real maple syrup is valuable. It’s not everywhere and in everystore. That’s the way I look at the class of 2009; valuable and rare.It takes forty gallons of sap to make one gallon of maple syrup. Ittakes lots of education to make one professional. Whether it is torun your own lawn care business, become a nurse, a surveyor, ajournalist, a forest ranger, or a doctor of pharmacy, we all havesomething to give in this world, and we are ready.”

they make the transition fromvaudeville to burlesque.

“It’s got a lot of differentlayers to it,” said Hughes. “Itborders on corny from time totime, but it’s also kind ofgrown-up.”

“The music for this show isone of the most memorablescores ever written,” Hughesadded, noting famous songs

like “Let Me Entertain You”and “Everything’s ComingUp Roses.”

Elizabethtown’s own An-gel Marvin portrays MommaRose, the ultimate stagemother who pushes her twoyoung girls into the spotlight.

“It’s a bigger role than I an-ticipated,” said Marvin, whodescribed the experience ofplaying the vivacious charac-ter as intense. “She’s a bull-dozer. When she’s notsinging, she’s yelling.”

She is joined by a cast of 24talented performers, ageseight and up from throughoutthe Champlain Valley. Theproduction is directed by Su-san Hughes, choreographedby Jackie Robertin and ac-companied by pianist Jen-nifer Moore and percussionistGuy Szalkowski.

“It’s got everything,” saidMarvin, “cute kids, dancing,strippers, and a great story.”

Performances begin July 15and continue until July 26,

with shows Wednesdaythrough Saturday at 7:30 p.m.and Sunday at 5 p.m. Ticketsare $17, with the exception ofWednesday evening, whenadmission is pay-what-you-can.

Floats came in all shapes and sizes during the Westport Fourth of July festivities.

SATURDAY July 11, 2009 www.Denpubs.com VALLEY NEWS - 15

Istill remember the day I got my firstfishing pole. It was a white Shake-speare WonderRod with a closed

faced Zebco 202 reel.Unlike the bike I rode at the time, my

first fishing rod was not a “hand medown” item. It was a birthday present andit was brand new. I spent as much timepractice casting in the backyard as I did onthe river.

Currently, according to the RecreationalBoating and Fishing Foundation, there aremore than 50 million active anglers in theUnited States.

The vast majority of active anglers claimthey learned to fish because “someone”once took the time to introduce them to thesport. Typically, it was a father, uncle orgrandfather that provided this introduc-tion. However, in recent years there havebeen some dramatic shifts in American so-ciety. Today, nearly 50 percent of American

children are raised in a sin-gle parent family. In 2008,our society passed anotherthreshold as more childrenwere born to an unwedmother than to wedded cou-ples.

Nearly 67 percent of allanglers claim that “Dad”took them on their first fish-ing trip. If “Dad” has a di-minishing role in introduc-ing new anglers today, andothers don’t step in to fillthe void, how will the sportof angling be passed to fu-ture generations?

The gift of fishing is stillsomething special and thosewho don’t fish may neverknow what they havemissed, unless those of uswho fish take the opportu-nity to share it.

Fishing with children: Do it nowRecreational boating and fishing rank

high among America’s favorite sporting ac-tivities. More people fish than play golfand tennis combined. The surest way toensure longevity of the sport is by in-creased public awareness. Children that be-come committed anglers quickly developan awareness and appreciation of the needfor protecting, conserving and restoringAmerica’s aquatic natural resources.

Today’s children will be the the nextgeneration of American anglers, or not.With the vast angling resources availableacross the Adirondacks, parents and educa-tors, it would be negligent to deny childrenthe necessary knowledge and skills to ef-fectively utilize such resources.

As a parent, I’d prefer that my child wasout wading on a local stream than hangingout on a street corner.

Tips and techniques for young anglers

There are a few key points that parentsshould be aware of when venturing outwith children on an angling adventure. You don’t need a boat full of fancy gear.Often, it’s much easier to fish from shore.Always be positive and enthusiastic; makefishing a fun and enjoyable activity.

Let the kids gain competency by practicecasting on the lawn at home. Provide a tar-get such as an apple basket to improve ac-curacy.

Watch the weather and insure that out-ings are short, exciting and productive.Pick a place that is easy to get to, comfort-able, and safe.

Bring along plenty of snacks, lunch, wa-ter, sunscreen, insect repellent, swimsuits,towels and first aid basics.

Make the trip comfortable for everyoneand above all have patience with snaggedlines, lost tackle and missed fish. Praisethem often, you will accomplish more withpositive feedback than a reprimand.

Target species most likely for successsuch as perch, sunnies or rock bass and uselive bait such as worms, minnows orgrasshoppers.

They don’t have to catch the largest fishin the pond, but due to a shorter attentionspan, they must have activity. The keypoint is to fish where action is assured toavoid boredom. Keep it simple and use reli-able equipment that is intended fornovices. A short rod with a push button,spin casting reel is much easier to use thana long rod with an open face spinning reel.

For smaller children, drill a hole in thehandle of the rod and attach a lanyard. Tiethe lanyard to the boat or a belt buckle incase they drop the rod. Often kids will re-lease the whole rod when letting go of the‘push button’ on the reel. This simple tipmay save you from “fishing for a rod.”

Crimp the barb on all hooks. This makesit much easier to release the fish, a kid or aparent.

Protect the children and make certain

that they al-ways wearsunglasseswhen anyonehas a rod inhand. A bar-bless hookcan easily beremoved from a finger or a foot, but notfrom an eyeball.

Spread anglers out. Make certain they areat least 10 feet apart and watch for othersbefore casting. Use a bobber if possible, itwill provide a visual clue to signal a bite. Italso gives kids something to watch to stayattentive.

Leave your rod at home since the trip isall about a kid’s fishing adventure. If possi-ble, bring along someone their age to sharethe adventure with.

Look for water bugs, turtles, frogs,beavers or loons. Let them play with min-nows or worms. Let them experience na-ture. Most of all, fishing should be fun, nota chore.

Take a camera along. After the trip, getprints in the kid’s hands as soon as possi-ble, so they can share the adventure withothers. Encourage them to write a shortstory to accompany the photos, it can pro-vide helpful feedback for future trips.

Show respect for the environment andthe water. Teach water safety and in a boat,make certain everyone wears a PFD (leadby example).

Make each outing an adventure. Involvechildren in the planning for the day, lookover maps, draw up a list and let them as-sist in the decision making process.

It should be their special time! A big partof the fun is in the preparation. Let themhelp with the tackle, digging worms orcatching grasshoppers.

Most of all, strive to depart before thefish do, always leave them wantingmore.

Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman resid-ing in Ray Brook. Contact him at [email protected]

Take a kid fishing,before it’s too late!

When it comes to fishing, quantity is more important to childrenthan quality. When introcuding children to the sport, it's best totarget 'easy to catch' species such as perch, sunfish or rock bassrather than the more selective species.

Douglas. “As far as competition, it’s probably thehighest caliber of teams we’ve had since restart-ing the tournament for its 40th year.”

Festivities begin Friday at 5 p.m. with a Pee Weesoftball game between the Jay/Black Brook Patri-ots and the Peru Yankees. At 7 p.m. the AmericanLegion Post #504 Color Guard will present theflags as Michaela Bushey and Susan Richards singthe national anthems of both Canada and theUnited States, respectively.

The competition kicks off with a 7 p.m. gamebetween the Quyon Combat Flyers of Ottowa, On-tario and North Line Utilities of Au Sable Forks.At 9 p.m. another Au Sable Forks team, GordonOil, will face the Mountain Brook Lodge/OttowaBlitz combined team.

Games resume on Saturday beginning at 9 a.m.and continue through the afternoon and evening.

Round-robin play continues Sunday morningwith playoffs in the afternoon.

Tournament organizers are expecting the tour-nament to be well-attended.

“Each year it has a huge economic impact; notonly here in Au Sable Forks, but in Wilimington,Lake Placid, and Keeseville,” he said, noting thatthe hundreds of visiting athletes and spectatorspatronize local merchants, lodging, and campingsites.

Past tournaments have donated proceeds tofamilies of individuals who had conditions suchas ALS or Cystic Fibrosis. This year ’s tournamentwill benefit a group of area residents who have re-cently been diagnosed with similar devastatingdiseases.

“We’ve been very successful in the past fewyears raising funds for families in need in ourcommunity,” said Douglas. “We’re going to con-tinue to do that as long as we have a successfulweekend.”
