SUMMER ROOFING SPECIAL

By Matt [email protected]

ELIZABETHTOWN — One ofthe area’s oldest businesses will beshowing its appreciation to thecommunity next weekend as itmarks a major milestone.

Egglefield Bros. Ford in Eliza-bethtown will celebrate its 100thanniversary as a Ford dealer Aug.1 with a community event featur-ing music, food, and a parade ofFord vehicles from throughout thepast century.

“The only reason we’re here isbecause of the community,” saiddealer principal Dennis Egglefield.“It’s basically a get-together and a‘thank you’ weekend bash for ouremployees and our customers.”

In 1910, Egglefield’s great-grandfather, Wilbur B. Egglefield,established a dealership in NewRussia that started with just threevehicles. The dealership moved toits current location in 1919.

“We’re one of the oldest in thecountry,” said Egglefield, notinghow only eight other dealershipsnationwide can claim to be older.

All these years later, Egglefield

Bros. has remained a family-owned and operated buisiness.Egglefield’s son, Cory, operates thecompany’s second location, HighPeaks Ford, on State Route 86 inRay Brook, making Egglefield afifth-generation business.

“We’ve worked hard to take careof our customers and support ourcommunity,” said Egglefield.“We’ve all gone at it with the samepassion.”

The celebration will gather morethan 200 vehicles from everydecade of Egglefield Bros. history.Attendees will be able to view a1914 Model T, A wide array of 60’sera sports cars, the new modelsnow on sale, and everything in be-tween.

Egglefield said the dealership isstill looking for entries for its pa-rade.

“Anbody with an old Ford iswelcome,” he said. “They don’thave to be show cars.”

The event kicks off at 10 a.m.when the vehicles will begin mak-ing processions, 10 to 15 at a time,along Court Street. A disc jockeywill be playing music well into theafternoon, and refreshments will

be available as well.“It’s just a great opportunity for

people to get together for the day

and talk Ford,” said Egglefield.The event is free and open to the

public. For more information, con-

tact Egglefield Bros. at 873-6551 orvisit their Web site at www.eggle-fieldbros.com.

Along time summer resident, Hec-tor Richard, will become a cente-narian as he turns 100 years old

July 25. He was born in 1910 on a farm inLacolle, Québec. The 1918 flu took his par-ents. In 1928, he came to the U.S., marriedin 1935, and became a citizen in 1959. Hewas self-employed in the carpentry busi-ness in the Albany area until he establisheda camp here in Willsboro in 1959. His win-ters are now spent in Florida. His answerto longevity is to stay positive and active.He golfed, waterskied and wind-surfedwell into his 80s and 90s. He says a gooddiet, a little nip of brandy and good geneshelps one to reach this age.

Reminder of the hard work of the towncomprehensive plan steering committee isdoing: They’ve reached another level forthe public to review. Interested members ofthe public are invited to attend a forumSaturday, July 24, at 9 a.m. at the Common-

wealth Fashions cafeteria. They are seekingthe public’s input. The next Heritage pro-gram will be Friday, July 23, at 7 p.m. atthe Visitor ’s Center. The program is enti-tled, “William H. Miner, Why All theMyths?” The public is welcome to attend.

All interested elementary age childrenare invited to attend the Summer Ecumeni-cal Bible School the week of Aug. 16-20,each morning. The theme is “Galactic Blast:A Cosmic Adventure Praising God.” It willbe held at the Willsboro Methodist Church.

Essex Day is coming up soon with lots ofactivity. Saturday, Aug. 7, from 10 a.m. to 3p.m. County fairs are starting up — TheEssex County Fair will be Aug. 11 to 15. Ihear they are going to have several familyfarms on display.

Happy Birthday: Howard Mero 7/25,Mattie Russell 7/27, Danica Bridge 7/28,John Bigelow 7/29, James Barber 7/30, Bar-bara Brockney 7/30.

Here’s the latest in the ongoingsaga of the municipal buildingproject Westport voters narrowly

rejected in June. I wrote a few weeks agothe town board, following the recommen-dation of the committee tasked with plan-ning the project, intended to put the sameplan back up for another vote in Septem-ber.

That may no longer be the case. Thecommittee met again July 12, when tworesidents put forward an alternative planthey said would allow separate structuresfor each entity — fire house, town shed,renovated town hall, school bus garage —for less than $2 million total.

Supervisor Dan Connell told me it’s un-certain where we go from here. The com-mittee will meet again Tuesday, July 27, at6 p.m. in the town hall, followed by theregular town board meeting at 7 p.m. Theplan is to decide whether to go ahead withanother vote on the original project. Thetwo residents with the alternative plan

have now joined the committee, so their in-put will be part of the picture. The publicis welcome at these meetings. Though Ican’t attend them, I’ll try to keep you post-ed.

The second annual Westport CentralSchool alumni picnic will be held at LeePark Friday, July 30, from 5 to 8 p.m.Alumni, friends and family are encouragedto bring a dish to pass in addition to chairsand pictures to share. More than two dozenalumni attended last year and many moreare expected this year.

And Saturday, July 31, from 6 to 9 p.m.Ballard Park is hosting its annual fundrais-ing event, which provides the funds neces-sary to maintain the park’s splendor for allto enjoy. This year ’s theme is “Bring-Back-the-Beach Party.” Over the years, the beachbank has eroded and Ballard Park’s nextmajor project is to stabilize the bank andrejuvenate the beach area. Please helpbring it back. For information, call 962-8220.

This weekend is looking pretty busyin our neighborhood. First is theweekly Farmers’ Market on Friday

night. Saturday will have flowers bloomingas the library holds its benefit KeesevilleGarden Tour. The free summer readingprogram is continuing at the library Mon-day, July 26, from 10-11 a.m., with thetheme of Squish Squash Freshwater andWetlands discussion. For the last week,while the children are enjoying story time,parents can enjoy the wonderful paintingson display and for sale as done by localartist Judith Corilgano. The library’s sum-mer hours are Mondays, Wednesdays andFridays, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 1 to 7p.m., and Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 11a.m. to 5 p.m. The library is closed Satur-days and Sundays. Visit on-line at www.ce-fls.org/keeseville.htm or call 834-9054 formore information.

Also, this Saturday, July 24, the Ironmanwill be running down in Lake Placid, sotraffic may be heavier than usual off Exit

34 of the Northway. Proceed with cautionand sheer on the hard-working athletes.

I am thrilled to find so many events go-ing on in our community, but I find, withmy son, we can find lots to do even on qui-et days. We have taken to walking alongthe AuSable River and around the down-town area of Keeseville, taking in all thesights from the bridges and the steep stairsleading up to Pleasant Street from belownear the Riverside Tavern.

After an spectacular initial walk, wehave taken to carrying our cameras withus, as well as a garbage bag and gloves.The area is not horribly overrun with trash,but the simple beauty available to us canso easily be ruined by even one scrap ofgarbage. My son and I have found that,while it is easy for one person to carelesslydiscard litter into our community, it is justas easy for us to pick it up and get rid of it.And then the next person will just see thebeauty. Enjoy it.

The sewer project in the village ismuch in evidence now, with treecutting opposite the fire house and

land clearing behind the library, where amajor pump station will be located.Sewage from around the village will flowby gravity to the rear of the ECHO parkinglot, where it will be pumped uphill to thetreatment plant. The treatment plant willbe started first, followed by the collectionsystem. It’s expected that work will start inthe village streets in about a month.

Apparently, we’re having a very goodyear for rattlesnakes, as calls about prob-lem snakes are on the increase. The snakesin question are timber rattlesnakes, Cro-talus horridus, which are native fromsouthern New Hampshire to the GulfCoast. In Essex, they dwell in the SplitRock Mountain area, preferring deciduoushardwoods and rugged terrain. These arelarge, stocky snakes that average from 3 to5 feet in length, and are active from Aprilto mid-October. They feed on small mam-

mals as well as birds and frogs, and othersnakes. They are well camouflaged and canbe difficult to spot. They make a buzzingsound like an angry bee, not a rattle at all.If you are hiking and hear a loud buzzing,stop, stay calm and look around. Backaway slowly if you can, or if the snake isvery close, stand still, don’t move, andwait for him to leave. Timber rattlers cantravel up to 3 miles from their dens seek-ing prey. The Whallons Bay and CoucheyHill areas are where they most commonlyencounter humans, although about 20years ago a nest was found in Whallons-burg.

It’s been dry in my vegetable garden, butthe sweet corn and pole beans are delight-ed with the hot weather. Our water well israther limited in capacity, which meanssharing the hose with Amy. She incorrectlythinks flowers have the same importanceas vegetables, but with careful scheduling,all of our gardens get their fair share.

We are now well into the heart ofsummer — and flea season —in the Upstate NY area. This is

also the time of year when many un-neutered cats and dogs have their young.Unfortunately, fleas are just as likely tomake a home in the fur of a kitten or pup-py as they would be in an adult animal.For these fur babies, the complications pre-sented by a flea infestation can be evenmore troublesome than for the adult ani-mal.

Flea infestations can lead to both stan-dard anemia and a much more dangerousform known as Haemobartonellosis, whichis caused by a microorganism. In addition,fleas and tapeworms are nearly synony-mous in young animals. Clearly, we wantto protect our youngest dogs and cats, butwhat treatment is considered safe at thisage? The following are a few pointersabout flea control from about.com.

First, control flea infestations in thehome. Wash all bedding thoroughly. Vac-cum carpets on a daily basis using newvacuum cleaner bags. Insect “bombs” canbe used, but with caution; the chemicals re-leased are harmful to all animal life, andyou may want to consider professional ap-plication if you pursue this route. Hire aprofessional to treat outdoor areas.

As for your pet herself, begin with athorough brushing using a flea comb.Shake the comb periodically over a jar ofdiluted bleach to kill any fleas. A mild,non-insecticidal pet or baby shampoo issufficient after brushing. Advantage fleacontrol documents safety for kittens asyoung as eight weeks of age, but we rec-ommend you do not use any chemical fleacontrol products on your young animalwithout your veterinarian’s supervision.

Our featured pet this week is Jax, a JackRussell Terrier mix. Jax is a sensitive cutiewho is often shy around new people, buthis curiosity gets the better of him very

quickly once he gets to know you. Aftersome introductions and some chin-scratch-ing, you may find this playful sweetheartwill never leave your side. Jax gets alongwell with other dogs and loves his walks.If you are looking for a small dog who isaffectionate and enjoys the outdoors, Jaxmay be the pup for you.

By Susan Doolittle The following items of note appeared on this date in the pages of our local newspapers. The Essex County Republican 1897 CROWN POINT - Crown Point is to have a new and valuable industry and we wish them all suc - cess. It will be remembered that ex-Governor Flower during his campaign speeches always counseled the farmers to make such good butter and cheese that it would be in demand the world over. Crown Point, always noted for the production of sweet, pure, but - ter, is now turning attention to cheese making. The Sherman Cheese Factory Company has been organ - ized and a building will be erected on Woodlawn Farms with the latest improved machinery for the manufacture of cheese. The building will be com - pleted and everything in readiness for business September 1. MORIAH - About three o’clock Sunday afternoon the bells sounded the fire alarm and soon the streets were full of people looking for the fire. It was soon learned that the fire was at Mrs. Long’s house on South Main street. The fire department responded promptly, and hoses were quickly laid and water playing on the fire, which was soon fully under con - trol. It was perfectly calm at the time, so adjoining property was not endangered. Mrs. Long is an old lady, and Mrs. Tinney her daughter, who lives with her, was out for a walk. From the best information gained, it seems that the fire started from the improper management of an oil stove, and there being no water in the house, Mrs. Long was helpless, and no one being near at the time, the fire made rapid headway before an alarm could be given. Had there been a faucet in the house the fire could have been extinguished with a few pails of water after the first

help arrived. The building was damaged some three hundred dollars with no insurance. The fire depart - ment are deserving of great credit for their prompt and valiant work, much credit is also due to some persons who were not firemen. It was noticeable that a strong new hose laid from the Church Street hydrant was very useful, and by its aid the firemen were enabled to do most excellent service. The Adirondack Record- Elizabethtown Post 1937 WILMINGTON - Residents and visitors to the little hamlet of Wilmington last Sunday heard Rev. R. Alexander Jardine, the curate who married the Duke of Windsor and Wallis War-field in France recently in defiance of the head of the Church of England. He spoke at 8 a.m. at the Methodist Episcopal church at the foot of Whiteface mountain. Three thousand miles from his home parish, St. Paul’s of Darlington, England, Rev. Jardine was the guest of Miss Avis Seed at her summer camp in Wilmington, where he remained until Monday, having arrived there last Friday for a “well earned rest.” From there he left for Baltimore, Maryland, to keep a speaking engage - ment, following which he plans to visit the cities of the mid-west on his way to the western coast. AUSABLE FORKS - A swarm of honey bees circled the home of Rev. and D. S. Clute in the Jersey section of the village on Monday of last week and decided that an unused chimney of the Clute home would make an ideal home from which to make their fre - quent trips for honey, and descended into what they planned to make their home. On Tuesday one of the little visitors, apparently objected to the close approach of the “hive” of he and his companions and stung the young intruder.

Aline from “The Big Lebowski” or aphrase uttered by major league pitch-er, Preacher Roe; both are correct. The

phrase captures the imponderable randomnessof life and luck or the lack there of.

I was involved in a horrible car accidentwhere the driver of the other car died. He cameacross the road at just the right time to hit ushead on. If he had been traveling two tenths ofa mile an hour slower maybe he would have hitthe back of our car or if he were traveling a milean hour slower or we were traveling faster, hemight have missed us completely. Is this the in-finite serendipity of the cosmos in play or a sta-tistical likelihood that everyone that drives orrides in a car encounters?

Recently, Major league pitcher, Dallas Bradenpitched a perfect game — no hits, no walks andno errors. Braden is only the 19th pitcher since1880, to pitch a perfect game. Braden’s careerrecord of 18 wins and 23 losses makes theachievement even more remarkable. Was it luckor simply random perfection that sometimes ex-presses itself so magnificently, albeit on rare oc-casions?

General George Custer of Little Big Hornfame, was fond of saying he had a destiny thatcould not be denied. He led charges during theCivil War that caused him to have at least 11horses shot out from under him with only oneunremarkable injury. During the French and In-dian War, George Washington, later PresidentWashington, had two horses shot from underhim and on four different occasions, bullets

passed through hisclothes without in-juring him. Was di-vine providencesomehow preserv-ing Washington fora greater fate?

Maybe ForestGump was moreprofound than I have credited him with being.Forest’s familiar refrain “For no particular rea-son” or “Life is like a box of chocolates, younever know what you are going to get,” speaksto the capricious and unpredictable nature oflife. I would speculate that a critical differencein the great men that I have mentioned andmany of the rest of us is that they must haveabandoned their fears to their fate.

Many of us have more regret about things wedidn’t do than the things we did do; perhapswe were either too insecure or could not endurethe perceived embarrassment, should we fail.

In my life I have known a few people of faithand they seem to be most at ease with what lifehas in store for them. I admire them for theircourage and their resilience. Maybe the mean-ing of not being eaten by the bear today is reallyappreciating the gift each day is — another dayto love your children, hug your life partner, en-joy your friends, appreciate nature and to dosomething good for someone else. Remember,all kids count.

Some days you get the bear;some days the bear gets you

Kids Count By Scot Hurlburt

More than 2,600 athletes will enter Mirror Lake Saturday,July 25 for the swim start of the 12th annual IronmanLake Placid, and more than 3,500 volunteers will be

there to support and promote their successful finish.As spectators, we can certainly appreciate the hard work and

dedication that goes into training for and finishing the gruelingrace that combines a 2.4-mile swim and a 112-mile bike followedby a full marathon.

But as residents of the region, we should have an even greaterappreciation for the volunteers that ensure the success of thelargest one-day annual event held here.

The statistics have changed during the last 12 years, and I justlearned more than two-thirds of the Ironman Lake Placid volun-teers are from outside the region. That means most are overnightvisitors — effectively using up their vacation time to support ourcommunity. That’s huge.

Why do they do it? For the team T-shirt? No, they do it forthemselves; to be part of something big. Many are just glad tohave the opportunity to support an event that is so important totheir beloved Lake Placid and the Adirondacks. It’s an emotional-ly-charged, fast-paced, feel-good event, even when it rains. Somevolunteers have supported the event since the beginning, makingthe trek to Lake Placid 11 years in a row just to “work” 4-, 8-, 12-hour (and in some cases longer) shifts.

This is not a new trend. Volunteer vacations are popular. “Vol-untourism” is a way for people to do something good while expe-riencing a destination. We’re extremely fortunate to have a prod-uct worthy of these valuable visitors’ efforts.

Who benefits? The destination — or more specifically, the resi-dents of the region. The event generates an economic impact ofabout $9 million for Essex County, a combination of multiple ath-lete pre-race visits and the activity during the days surroundingthe race.

Aside from the direct economic benefits, the event keeps Lake

Placid’s name in the limelight through major worldwide media.The competition further promotes the healthy lifestyle we enjoyhere, has positively influenced many local youth, and supportsLake Placid’s brand as a world-renowned sports tourism destina-tion. And of course, the swim, bike and run takes place across ourAdirondack landscape, highlighting the backdrop for the outdooractivities that drive the largest percentage of visitors to the region.

Events are a valuable commodity. The Lake Placid Horse Shows,Can-Am hockey tournaments, rugby, lacrosse, the Lake Placidmarathon and the Lake Placid Film Forum, for example, expose adiverse demographic to the destination and increase visitationduring traditionally slower periods. The “weatherproof” nature ofthese events makes them a powerful economic driver — No matterthe meteorologic circumstances, attendees are guaranteed to behere for the planned dates.

The value of events merits their prioritization from a destinationmarketing perspective, and the Regional Office of SustainableTourism/Lake Placid CVB dedicates a staff person to the cause.

As part of her responsibilities, Kathy Pfohl, director of commu-nity relations and events, oversees the entire Ironman Volunteer —no small feat. Kathy is responsible for a tiered management sys-tem, with more than 80 volunteer captains who direct their respec-tive “teams” of volunteers.

In addition to our visiting volunteers, the region enjoys atremendous resident volunteer base for a long list of events, com-mittees, organizations, and more. This, along with a range of ac-commodations and venues makes us well-positioned to achieve agoal as a destination; to host a perfect blend of events, leisuretravelers, sports tourism, meetings and conventions — increasing-ly scheduled outside traditional travel seasons — in order to be-come a true year-round destination.

In the immediate future, though, we hope that those not volun-teering will come watch Ironman. The start is spectacular, and thefinish line is inspirational. Cheer on the athletes who have workedso hard, and don’t forget to thank the volunteers for making it allpossible!

LAKE PLACID — It’s been almost eight years since San-dra Izzo competed in the Lake Placid Ironman triathlon.Still, this Lake Placid resident had a special reason to signup for this year ’s event.

This time, Izzo won’t be competing for herself. She’ll alsobe raising funds for a cause close to her heart through theJanus Charity Challenge.

The program, sponsored by the Janus investment manage-ment firm, allows athletes to choose a nonprofit to benefitfrom donations. Janus also makes additional contributionsto the beneficiaries of the top fundraisers for each of the full-distance U.S. Ironman races.

“Through their generosity and commitment, Janus Chari-ty Challenge athletes are making the most of a greatfundraising opportunity,” said Casey Cortese, assistant vicepresident of Janus Corporate Sponsorships. “These triath-letes are taking their race to a higher level by providingmuch-needed support for nonprofit organizations through-out the country.”

For her charity, Izzo chose Rachel’s Vineyard, an after-abortion healing program.

The organization offers healing retreats to anyone strug-gling with the emotional and spiritual pain of abortion. Op-erating nationally since 1994, the program has helped morethan 100,000 people in its small group settings.

Izzo has been a volunteer for Rachel’s Vineyard since 2006when the program was first offered at Camp Guggenheimnear Saranac Lake. The Catholic Diocese of Ogdensburg,

which includes much of the North Country, holds Rachel’sVineyard retreats there twice annually.

Izzo said there is a continually growing need for the helpRachel’s Vineyard can offer.

“Abortion is a silent wound which women carry secretly,sometimes for years, and this pain can affect every aspect oftheir life,” said Izzo, noting how she’s seen first-hand thepain people bear. “Those hurting need to know they are notalone and that confidential help is available.”

Izzo said the idea of raising money for Rachel’s Vineyardwas her main motivation for competing in the Ironman thisyear.

“I don’t think I would have done it if I didn’t do it for this,”she said.

That motivation will be a big factor for Izzo as she com-petes Sunday, July 25. Though she completed the 2.4 mileswim, 112-mile bike, and 26.2-mile run four times before, thelast try came in 2002.

Still, the 50-year old mother has at least 20 years of racingexperience and is optimistic she can go the distance in LakePlacid.

“If I just finish, I will be ecstatic for Rachel’s Vineyard,”she said. “Any time I’ll be very happy with.”

To make a contribution to fundraising efforts for Izzo orany of the other 250 athletes participating in the Janus Char-ity Challenge, visit www.januscharitychallenge.com andclick “How to Donate.” Donations must be made by Satur-day, July 24, at 2 p.m. to be eligible for Janus contributions.

Donations can also be made to Rachel’s Vineyard at anytime by calling Izzo at 523-2410 or sending a check payableto Rachel’s Vineyard to 15 Old Military Road, Lake Placid,N.Y., 12946. All donations are tax deductible.

The 12th annual Ironman USA will be held in Lake Placidthis Sunday and spectators can track Izzo’s progress live onrace day by visiting www.ironmanlive.com.

Local Ironwoman runs for a cause

Lake Placid resident Sandra Izzo will be raising funds for theRachel’s Vineyard after-abortion healing program as she com-petes in Ironman USA 2010 in Lake Placid Sundya, July 25.

I know I am not alone, In missing a Dear Dad who passed on

For all of those missing their Dads, & for my siblings & myself.....Thanks Dad for always being there.

There are so many “Men” who take fatherhood lightly They either run away before their child is born,

Sometimes shortly thereafter, Sometimes when a toddler, sometimes grad school, Sometimes College.

At any point a “child” is hurt, Their life deeply affected, Their Father left when they became an inconvenience,

A nuisance, a monetary drain, just to much for “the Man.” Thanks Dad, for being a real true Dad, From my birth to your death & beyond

A man of integrity, high moral value & commitment, and thank you to all Dads who take the responsibility of

human life as seriously as they should. A better world depends upon it.

SARANAC LAKE — A proposal to charterSaranac Lake as a city is going to need a sig-nificant makeover before it has the supportto become reality.

Officials from the village and towns thatcomprise Saranac Lake met at the Harriet-stown town hall July 14 to review a feasibil-ity study commissioned by the Saranac LakeArea Government Restructuring Committee.

Their response was that making SaranacLake a city could lead to too much lost rev-enue for the three towns and two counties inwhich it’s located.

The joint committee, comprised of repre-sentatives from the village and the towns ofHarrietstown, North Elba and St. Armand,have been meeting with the New Paltz-basedFairweather Consulting firm for the past 12months to find ways to reduce overlappinglayers of government in the area and reducecosts to taxpayers.

Fairweather Consulting’s Tim Weidemannpresented an overview of the study, whichexamined the three most feasible options forrestructuring. Village dissolution and thecreation of a coterminous town-village wereconsidered, but ultimately rejected becausethey were either too complicated to imple-ment or created too much of a tax burden forresidents outside the village.

In contrast, creation of a city was found tobe a relatively simple solution that wouldamount to significant long-term savings fortaxpayers in the village while having a min-imal negative impact on the towns.

Still, many representatives from the townsfelt the impact on their tax base was under-estimated in the study, and said many ques-tions are still left unanswered about the fis-cal effects of chartering a city.

Creation of a city would remove the threetowns’ jurisdiction from Saranac Lake, re-quiring residents to pay property taxes onlyto the city government. Weidemann said thecity would provide the same services as thevillage plus a few additional ones, leading toa slight savings to taxpayers within its bor-ders.

But chartering Saranac Lake as a citywould remove some of the towns’ most high-ly valued property, leaving a significant gapfor the rest of the town’s residents to fill.

According to North Elba town supervisorRoby Politi, his town would lose roughly $90million in assessed value, the equivalent of$175,000 in annual property tax revenue.

Both Politi and St. Armand supervisorJoyce Morency expressed concern over thefact that, as a city, Saranac Lake could poten-tially preempt its sales tax and occupancytax revenues from the county.

“Some 700 rooms in North Elba would belost in terms of bed tax,” said Politi.

“New York’s cities have the option to pre-empt sales tax,” said Weidemann. “Thisstudy assumes that this city will not.”

“We’ve been down this road before,” Poli-ti added. “If the leaders of my communitythought this was doable, don’t you thinkLake Placid would quickly become a city?”

Saranac Lake village trustee Jeff Branch,who was the only village official present atthe meeting, urged town leaders not to dis-miss the idea of a city.

“What do you say to the people in yourtown who have a 69 percent increase in theirtaxes?” Branch asked Politi, referring to thestudy’s estimated fiscal impact of villagedissolution.

“The things we’ve brought up tonight arethe same things we’ve been bringing up allalong,” said Harrietstown councilman RonKeough. “Out of all the options, it looks likethe city is the best option, but how we makeit fair for everybody is what we need to workon.”

North Elba councilman Derek Doty sug-gested a possible compromise involving rev-enue sharing. Other town leaders indicatedsuch a deal may be necessary to gain theirsupport for a city charter.

Quick Facts:• The last time a city was chartered in New

York State was 1940.• Establishing a city requires the approval

of the State Legislature. Historically, the leg-islature has not approved the establishmentof a city without the support of its neighbor-ing local governments.

• If Saranac Lake were to become a city, itwould be the third-least populous city in thestate with a population of 5,041.

• Only three of New York’s 61 cities cur-rently have a population below 6,000. Thecity of Sherill, with a population of 3,147, isthe least populous and the only city whereresidents also pay town taxes.

• Only two other cities in New York Statereside in two counties: Geneva and NewYork City. Both preempt their counties’ salestax.

City proposal met with skepticism

North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi was amongthe toughest critics of a proposal to establishSaranac Lake as a city. Many officials from thethree separate towns where Saranac Lake is lo-cated agree more work needs to be done on theplan before it can move forward.

journey meant to trace the steps of the re-gion’s earliest explorers and settlers.

“Our decision to bring the Grand Tour toNew York State was motivated by our ongo-ing desire to offer a unique bicycle tourismexperience in new regions and particularlyalong different routes,” explained JoëlleSévigny, executive director of Vélo QuébecÉvénements et Voyages. “Following in thefootsteps of Champlain, this edition of theGrand Tour will be both rich in history andan opportunity to showcase all that bicycletourism has to offer in the Quebec–New Yorkcorridor.”

In preparation for the event, tourism part-ners in Warren, Washington, Essex and Clin-ton counties are organizing accommoda-tions and entertainment in each of cyclists’destinations to help provide a memorableexperience.

Ticonderoga is marked as the second “cy-clist village” on the journey where tour par-ticipants will be making two overnight staysand will be encouraged to make optionalscenic detours through some of the sur-rounding towns and villages.

“We want to help them see our beautifularea and provide the hospitality that willmake them feel welcome,” said Barb Bras-sard, executive director of the TiconderogaArea Chamber of Commerce.

The tour route sends cyclists throughWestport and Willsboro and past AuSable

Chasm on their way north toward ClintonCommunity College for another overnightstay.

“This is a huge event for the North Coun-try,” stated Garry Douglas, president andchief executive officer of the Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce. “Itmeans 2,000 visitors coming to experienceour region, and drawing wide attention toLake Champlain as a biking destination.”

One of the greatest advantages of “LeGrand Tour” may be the impact it is likely tohave on the region, both economically andpromotionally. Tour organizers estimate rid-ers spend more than $300,000 in the regionsthey travel through during the tour. Thesame study showed 83 percent of partici-pants intend to return to the regions they ex-plored during their visit.

Kim Rielly, director of communicationsfor the Lake Placid/Essex County Visitor ’sBureau, agreed there will be both a short-and long-term impact.

“Of course, while they are in the area, par-ticipants will have the opportunity to sam-ple our attractions, historic sites, restaurantsand retail shops,” she said, “and although alarge number of them are camping, thegroup’s support staff and some of the cy-clists have booked every room in town.”

In addition, said Rielly, the cyclists willget a chance to experience first-hand the va-riety of attractions this region offers andmay get a better awareness of the area’sclose proximity to Montréal and the rest ofQuébec, encouraging them to return for fu-ture visits.

Historical presentationhighlights vigilantes inthe Adirondacks

WILMINGTON — The Wilmington His-torical Society invites you to their program"Have You Seen That Vigilante Man?" withhistorian and author Amy Godine to be heldFriday, July 30, at 7 p.m. at the WilmingtonCommunity Center on Springfield Road.

Godine, a frequent contributor to Adiron-dack Life magazine, explains how the dark-er side of American mob justice was not con-fined to the Deep South or the Far West.Adirondack history is ablaze with flashes of“frontier justice,” from farmers giving chaseto horse thieves to “townie” raids on strik-ing immigrant miners to the anti-Catholicrallies of the Ku Klux Klan. Godine’s anec-dotal history of Adirondack vigilantismplumbs a regional legacy with deep, endur-ing roots, and considers what about theNorth Country made it fertile and forgivingground for outlaw activity.

The “Have You Seen That VigilanteMan?” program is free and open to the pub-lic. Refreshments will be served. For furtherinformation, contact Karen Peters at 524-1023 or Merri Peck at 946- 7627.

The event, which is quicklyevolving into one of the re-gion’s premiere family-friend-ly arts and craft fairs, drewmore than 2,000 people duringits inaugural year.

“Downtown Ticonderogawill become a festive pedestri-an mall with food, live enter-tainment, interesting things tosee, and opportunities to pur-chase unique crafts and gifts,”said organizer Sue Rathbun,who chairs the TiconderogaMontcalm Partnership, spon-sor of Streetfest.

shine Laundry to ChamplainAvenue at Glens Falls Nation-al Bank.

The street will close at 8 a.m.for set-up, with the event kick-ing off at 10 a.m. Fort Ticon-deroga’s award-winning Fifeand Drum Corps will open theevent with a performancedown the center of the street,followed by other musicalgroups who will provide liveentertainment throughout theday.

Main Street will be filledwith arts and craft vendors,specialty food kiosks, side-walk sales, a farmers market,and a display of antique cars,boats and other exhibitors.

There will be plenty for kidsto do as well, with hands-onarts demonstrations and Pene-lope the Clown offering facepainting and balloon artthroughout the day.

Participating vendors willrange from artisans specializ-ing in wood crafts, toys, jewel-ry, glass and rustic furniture tofood vendors offering tastytreats like snow-cones, deep-

fried Oreos, fried dough andother specialties.

In addition, downtownbusinesses will join the fraywith kiosks and specials, cre-ating a downtown atmospherenot unlike Burlington’s popu-lar Church Street.

“Our first Streetfest lastyear was a great success,”Rathbun said, noting planningfor this year ’s event beganeven earlier. “We’re deter-mined that this year will bebigger and better. We look for-ward to welcoming peoplefrom the whole area of north-ern New York, as well as ourfriends from across LakeChamplain in Vermont.”

The event will close at 4p.m. with the street reopeningto vehicles at 5 p.m. A list ofparticipating crafters, car andboat dealers and the locationof each will be available to vis-itors as they enter either end ofStreetfest.

July 24, 2010 ww ww ww .. tt hh ee vv aa ll ll ee yy nn ee ww ss .. oo rr gg Valley News - 25

Last week, residents of Dannemora were excitedto learn of a large moose feeding from a birdfeeder in the side yard of a local residence on the

General Leroy Manor Road.In the heat of the day, as temperatures topped the 90-

degree mark, a large crowd of on-lookers gathered alongthe highway while attempting to get a glimpse of themassive animal.

The numerous cars parked along the roadside soondrew the attention of the state police, who dispersed thecrowd of spectators.

The moose apparently appeared to be in distress andwhen it later collapsed, troopers called the Department ofEnvironmental Conservation.

A state DEC wildlife biologist responding to the scenefound a yearling moose that was believed to have diedfrom heat stroke.

Upon examination, thebiologist reported theyoung, bull moose had aninternal body cavity tem-perature of 107 degrees. Itwas believed to have diedof heat stroke, which typi-cally sets in when bodytemperatures reach 104 de-grees.

Moose are a circumpolar, boreal species. They are typi-cally found in the cooler climates of boreal forest areasacross the Northern Hemisphere.

While they thrive in such cold weather environments,moose are easily stressed by overheating, and by otherfactors such as predators, or the prying eyes of specta-tors.

They don’t do well in situations where there is a com-bination of high heat and humidity. In such conditions,they prefer spending time in water.

However, it wasn’t heat that did him last week. Thenecropsy performed by DEC revealed the true cause ofdeath was brain worm, a neurological disease commonlytransmitted by white-tailed deer.

By DEC estimates, there are currently between 500 to600 moose in the state. Brainworm is a major concern, ac-cording to DEC wildlife biologist Ed Reed, who ex-plained, “Brainworm is still a problem. That’s probablywhy the moose in Dannemora was still wandering aroundin the heat. We’ve been seeing problems with brain wormprimarily in areas with high deer densities such as Rens-selaer and Washington counties, where the deer densityis greater than 8-10 animals per square mile. ”

“Deer have brain worm but it doesn’t affect them as itdoes moose. Deer pass the nematode in their feces, whereit is picked up by snails, which act as a host”, Reed re-vealed, “And they [snails] deposit it on the leaves andgrass.”

Moose, which are primarily browsing animals that eatthe leaves, twigs, and buds of hardwood and softwoodtrees.

It is easy to see how the animals can contract brainworm, which frequently causes cerebrospinal nematodia-sis, a disease of the nervous system, that often, results indeath. They can consume nearly 40-60 pounds of browseevery day.

Fortunately for moose, the deer density in the Adiron-dacks ranks among the lowest in the entire state. It is oneof the major factors responsible for their return and ulti-mate survival. In fact, the moose that died in Dannemoramay not have been a local resident, since the animals areknown to travel great distances.

The animal’s tendency to range far and wide has creat-ed additional problems. Due to their propensity to travel,

a moose could be in Washington County one week and inClinton County by the next. This ranginess is also re-sponsible for the ever growing danger of vehicle/moosecollisions.

This is some good news for people that happen to ex-perience a close encounter with a moose while driving, asthe New York State Legislature has amended section 11-0915 of the Environmental Conservation Law concerningthe disposition of moose carcasses resulting from vehiclecollisions.

The revised amendment now allows people who acci-dentally kill a moose and damage their motor vehicle, toobtain a permit that allow them to keep the carcass.While the measure offers little consolation for wreckingtheir car, a large quantity of moose steaks and burgerscan certainly serve supplement the family budget whilethe car is undergoing repair.

Moose dies in Dannemora

Moose, such as this one photographed in a garden in downtownLake Placid last year, have become a common sight in theAdirondacks in recent years. They have been known to frequentresidential areas, as the photograph confirms.
