CHAZY — When 15-year-old Josh LaFountainwas diagnosed with We-gener ’s disease, it was adiagnosis that took hisfamily by surprise.

Josh’s mother, KellyLaFountain, recalled itwas in January when she was givingher son a haircut that something didn’tseem quite right.

“I noticed he had a bump behind hisright ear,” she said.

The next day, LaFountain took herson to the family doctor who thencalled for Josh to have a computed to-mography, or CT scan. Originally, Joshwas found to have a swollen lymphnode, she said, though it soon turnedout to be more.

“About a week later, he started get-ting an ear infection on the same side,”LaFountain said.

The LaFountains returned to theirdoctor and Josh was prescribed antibi-otics to treat the infection. However,before he used all of his prescription,

Josh developed asinus infection.

The Lafoun-tains went backto their doctoronce again, re-ceiving a differ-ent antibioticprescription forthe infections,though Josh’s

health continued to worsen, said hismother. He began to have chronicbloody noses and was in constant dis-comfort, she added.

“We spent February to March visit-ing ear, nose and throat specialists,”said LaFountain, who noted the spe-cialists also could find nothing elsewrong with Josh. “They just kepttelling him to take Sudafed and Adviland keep up with the antibiotics.”

The family did just that and eventried to go about their daily life asusual, said LaFountain, includingtaking a planned family vacation toFlorida. However, while on the trip,Josh’s sinus issues were worseningand he developed a low-grade fever.

Softball tournament to benefit memorial scholarship fundEvent to be held in memory of Stephanie Heath, Courtney Alexander Sept. 5 and 6

By Sarah L. [email protected]

WEST PLATTSBURGH —Ever since a car accidentclaimed the lives of Saranacteens Stephanie Heath andCourtney Alexander March31, the community has joined to to help theirfamilies in any way possible.

Bill LeBeau, neighbor and friend of Jill Heath,Stephanie’s mother, is no exception.

“At the time it happened, [Heath] was so over-whelmed with people and I kind of just sat backand I mentioned to her, anything I can do, Iwould try to do for her,” LeBeau explained.

Now, five months later, LeBeau has workedwith Heath and Cindy Alexander, Courtney’smother, to put together an Old School SoftballTournament, to be held at the American LegionPost 1619, Saturday, Sept. 5, and Sunday, Sept. 6.

Currently, LeBeau is looking for softball teamsto sign up for the tournament, which is a $150

entry fee. All proceeds from the tourna-ment will be matched by the AmericanLegion.

“It’s all going to go into the girls’scholarship fund,” said Heath.

The Stephanie and Courtney Memor-ial Scholarship Fund was established tohelp a Saranac Senior High School sen-ior who is looking to become a nurse,

and does not have a full scholarship to attendcollege.

Alexander explained both of the girls hadplanned on becoming nurses and were alreadyaccepted into the program at Clinton Communi-ty College.

Both Alexander and Heath felt a scholarshipfund was appropriate, because their daughterswere always the first to step up and help some-one in need.

“When the girls passed away, there were threefamilies that didn’t have enough money to buyannouncements for their graduation,” recalled

See TOURNAMENT, page 16

“The community isnot going to let thesegirls go away.”

PLATTSBURGH — Debbie Thorn-ton has been friends with RenéArnold for nearly 20 years andwould do anything for her.

When the Morrisonville womanwas diagnosed with advancedbreast cancer earlier this year,Thornton was by her friend’s side,offering to help in any way shecould.

“René would do the same for any-one else. She’s just a kind-hearted,giving person,” Thornton said.

As a single mother of two teenagesons, Arnold has been doing her bestto keep her spirits up, particularlyfor her boys, Thornton said.

“She’s been handling this as bestshe can. I don’t know if I could be asstrong as she is,” said Thornton.“She’s giving it her all.”

“René’s a special person and it’sterrible for her to have to go throughthis at 46 years old — it’s not good

at any age,” she added.Kathleen Rushford, who works

with Arnold at the Wyeth Pharma-ceuticals research facility in Chazy,said she and her fellow co-workershave felt a void withoutArnold since she’s beenout of work because ofher illness.

“We all miss her,” saidRushford.

As a sign of their sup-port, Rushford has joinedwith Thornton and someof Arnold’s other friendsand co-workers to hold abenefit this Sunday, Aug.23, in her honor. The benefit, whichwill assist Arnold with her medicalexpenses, will be held at Veterans ofForeign Wars Post 125, 116 BoyntonAve., beginning at 12 p.m.

As word spread of the benefit andArnold’s condition, many peoplehave offered their support as well,said Rushford.

Employees from the Wyeth Phar-maceuticals facility in Rouses Point

and the Clinton County Sheriff ’s De-partment in Plattsburgh — bothwhere Arnold previously worked —have also shown their support bymaking contributions toward the

benefit, saidRushford. In ad-dition, localbusinesses fromthe Mor-risonville-Plattsburgharea andArnold’s home-town of TupperLake have con-tributed toward

the event.“Everyone has been really great,”

Rushford said. “I really hope thisbenefit goes well for her. She de-serves that.”

“She’d be the first one doing thisfor someone else,” said Thornton.“Seeing how many people really docare for her would really boost hermorale.”

The cost of the spaghetti dinner

will be $10 per person and includesalad, garlic bread and a dessert. Thedesserts are being made by employ-ees at the Wyeth facilities in Chazyand Rouses Point and friends ofArnold.

“We really want to thank all ofthem,” she said.

Michigans will also be served,with those purchasing a dinner to re-ceive a ticket to vote in a michigansauce contest. The winner of the con-test will have a donation made intheir name to benefit Arnold.

The event will also include a 50-50drawing, raffles and auctions, allwhich will also benefit Arnold. En-tertainment will be provided by theband Heartland Express and DJservice Lisa and Company.

Those unable to attend the benefitand who would still like to make acontribution toward Arnold’s med-ical expenses, may do so by sendingdonations to her at 9 Grace St., Mor-risonville, N.Y. 12962.

R O U S E S P O I N T —According to villageclerk Carol A. Hanfield,an article in the July 25edition of the NorthCountryman containedan error regarding a newvillage ordinance fordog control.

The article inadver-tently stated it would beillegal for all dogs todefecate or urinate onpublic property or prop-erty other than that ofthe owner. Hanfield not-ed the law actually statessuch action is only ille-gal if the dog does “cre-ate a nuisance by defe-cating, urinating or dig-ging on public propertyor private property ofsaid owner.”

“Our attorney ex-plained that that meansif an individual has adog or dogs and nevercleans up their yard andit creates a nuisance bythe smell or for whatev-er reason then the neigh-bor could file chargesagainst the owner of thedog,” Hanfield ex-plained.

Questions about theordinance may be direct-ed to the village office at297-5502.

Most people are aware UV radiation can burn ourskin, but may not realize exposure to UV radia-tion can harm the eyes or other components of

solar radiation can also affect vision. According to the American Optometric Association, there

are three types of UV radiation: UV-C is absorbed by theozone layer and does not present any threat; UV-A and UV-B radiation can have adverse long- and short-term effects onthe eyes and vision.

Research has shown exposure to small amounts of UV ra-diation over a period of many years increases the chance ofdeveloping a cataract and may cause damage to the retina,a nerve-rich lining of the eye used for seeing. Additionally,chronic exposure to shorter wavelength visible light (i.e.blue and violet light) may also be harmful to the retina.

The longer the eyes are exposed to solar radiation, thegreater the risk of developing such conditions as cataractsor macular degeneration later in life. It is not known howmuch exposure to solar radiation will cause damage. TheAOA recommends wearing quality sunglasses that offer UVprotection and wearing a hat or cap with a wide brim when-ever you spend time outdoors.

To provide adequate pro-tection for your eyes, sun-glasses should block out 99to 100 percent of both UV-Aand UV-B radiation; screenout 75 to 90 percent of visiblelight; be perfectly matched incolor and free of distortionand imperfection; and havelenses that are gray for prop-er color recognition.

Don’t forget protection forchildren and teenagers.Wrap around frames can pro-vide additional protectionfrom the harmful solar radiation.

Also, be sure to see your doctor of optometry at least everytwo years for a comprehensive eye examination.

Last week, I mentioned pairing dollar coupons withdollar sales at the grocery store are one of my favoriteways to get items for free. Another easy way? Dou-

ble-coupon days.Coupon “doubling” occurs when a store matches a

coupon’s face value and passes the added bonus savings onto you, the shopper. Here’s how it works. When you go to thecheckout and hand the cashier a 50-cent coupon during dou-ble-coupon days, the cashier scans it and the cash register au-tomatically doubles the value of that coupon to $1. You re-ceive a dollar savings on one item with one 50-cent coupon.

Grocery stores handle double-coupon promotions differ-ently. Some stores double coupons up to a certain amountevery day. Others offer double-coupon promotions on certaindays of the week or certain weeks of the month. Still othersoffer double coupons on some days and triple coupons on oth-ers. During a triple-coupon promotion, a 50-cent coupon isworth $1.50.

These sales are definitely worth checking out because storesthat double coupons make it very easy for shoppers to get gro-ceries for free or at big discounts. However, in my experience,many stores have specific rules for the ways they doublecoupons. You’ll want to refer to your store’s coupon policy todetermine exactly how your store handles these promotions.Visit the store’s Web site for the information or ask for a copyof the guidelines next time you’re shopping.

For example, one national grocery store chain will doubleall coupons worth up to 55 cents every day of the week. An-other national chain doubles coupons up to $2 each, but theyonly run this promotion for one week each month. Somestores will double Internet coupons, others won’t. It’s impor-tant to find out exactly how your store handles doubles so youaren’t disappointed at the checkout.

Let’s go back to our example from last week, the “dollarsale” at the grocery store. Our store has many items on salefor $1, including cans of soup, toothbrushes and bags offrozen vegetables. Our store also doubles coupons up to $1 invalue. How can we get things for free? Well, any coupon witha value of 50 cents will automatically be doubled to $1. I havea 50-cent coupon for the soup, a 55-cent coupon for the tooth-

brush and a 75-cent couponfor the vegetables. With thosethree coupons doubling invalue, I’ll be taking home acan of soup, a toothbrush, anda bag of frozen veggies allfree.

It’s important to note, too,coupons typically do not dou-ble over the value of the item.This is different from the waysome stores handle “over-age,” which is when yourcoupon’s value exceeds thecost of the item you’re buy-ing. At many stores, using a $1 coupon on an item that is onsale for 75 cents will not only give you that item for free, itwill also take an extra quarter off your total purchase. This isthe overage value that was left over after your $1 coupon paidfor your 75-cent item. However, when a store offers doublecoupons, they’re matching the coupon’s value out of theirown pocket. So, using a $2 coupon on a $3.79 bottle of spraycleaner will get you the cleaner for free, as the coupon dou-bles up to $4, but it will not give you that extra 21 cents inoverage. However, you’ll be taking items home for free, andwho doesn’t love that?

Now, don’t fret if you no stores double coupons in yourarea. Coupon doubling tends to be a regional phenomenon.Here in the Chicago area, none of our grocery stores doublecoupons, ever! The closest stores that do are 45 minutes fromwhere I live. (And yes, I take “coupon field trips” to them onoccasion.) But I do the bulk of my weekly shopping in a storethat does not double coupons, and I still manage to cut mybill by half or better with coupons each week.

Twice the fun with double-coupon days

The most important part of any computer is the data,period. The data could be a work document, Excelspreadsheet, a group of pictures or even an appli-

cation that’s hard to get your hands on. If deemed importantenough, users should take the time to back it up. Backing updata can be accomplished automatically or manually, todaywe look at two automatic options.

The first option uses a flash drive. These small, easy-to-use devices have been around long enough to render floppydrives obsolete. Microsoft users have access to a nice appli-cation called the Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager. Thisapplication will help you automatically backup and restoredata to and from a flash drive. The functionality built into itallows users to make an already easy-to-use device even eas-ier. Go to microsoft.com and search for it by name. The in-stallation file is called “UFDSetupWizard.msi” and it is asmall program at 670KB.

The second option is for people who work on more thanone PC and would like automatic synchronization offiles/folders between the computers. Syncing a file on onePC to another is what provides the redundancy of data. Theoption relies on a Web service called Microsoft Live Sync andit works on both Apple and Windows computers.

The service requires a Windows Live account, which is free

to establish. Go tosync.live.com and create anaccount or log in with yourexisting account. Oncelogged in, download the1.38MB program called“WindowsLiveSync.msi”and install on each PC youwant synced. Complete theprocess by specifying whichfiles/folders to sync on eachcomputer.

Live Sync does not keepcopies of anything; it simplyacts as a conduit betweenmultiple PCs. At present, Microsoft does not limit theamount of data that can be synced.

PLATTSBURGH — As September drawscloser, so does the annual commemoration ofthe Battle of Plattsburgh.

During a press conference held at City HallAug. 18, Battle of Plattsburgh Commemora-tion Committee co-chairpersons Gary Van-Cour and Christopher “Kit” Booth announcedplans for the upcoming event, to be held Mon-day, Sept. 7, through Sunday, Sept. 13.

The committee has put together a host ofhistorical reenactments, musical performanc-es and other family-oriented activities forwhat will be its 12th annual event, said Van-Cour.

Most people already identify the week-longevent as a historical commemoration, Van-Cour said. However, the week has also cometo be know for its entertainment and for beinga cultural event.

“We specifically call it a commemorationand not a celebration or festival because welike to bring attention to the sacrifices thatwere made on all sides,” said Vancour. “Wehave, yes, a historic event, but we also have amusical event and we want people to take ad-vantage of that.”

“I’d say that there’s something there foreverybody,” he added.

The annual cost of the event is approxi-mately $90,000, said Booth, and is largely pos-sible due to the generosity of 30-40 majorsponsors, some of which include Key Bank,NBT Bank, Eagle’s Nest Veterinary Hospital,

Northern Insuring and the Plattsburgh NoonRotary Club. Sales of buttons which give peo-ple access to all Battle of Plattsburgh eventshave also helped continue the event, Boothnoted

“Those are all significant amounts of mon-ey but every penny we get helps as well,” saidBooth. “It boggles my mind that how generousthis community is over and over and overagain.”

This year, the Battle of Plattsburgh Com-memoration Committee also received $5,550through a Lake Champlain Basin ProgramQuadricentennial grant, which Booth andVancour both acknowledged as helping sig-nificantly.

“That’s probably a one-time thing, but we’revery appreciative of that,” said Booth.

The Battle of Plattsburgh will tie in with thisyear ’s Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricen-tennial, which, in part, celebrates French ex-plorer Samuel de Champlain’s exploration ofthe region.

The most prominent tie, said VanCour, willbe the theme of the commemoration’s annualparade, which will be called “The French Con-nection.” Grand marshals of this year ’s paradewill be Celine R. Paquette, Champlain, co-chair of the Hudson-Fulton-ChamplainQuadricentennial Commission, and ClaudeVachon, a Quebec representative of the Parlia-ment of Canada.

More details about the Battle of PlattsburghCommemoration are available on-line atwww.battleofplattsburgh.org, including a fullschedule of events.

On top of all that, he was becomingmore lethargic and started limping onone of his legs.

LaFountain said she and Josh’s father,Mickey, soon noticed the leg on whichJosh was limping was actually swollen,prompting them to take their son to theemergency room at Orlando RegionalMedical Center. Routine blood workperformed there showed Josh’s kidneyfunction was deteriorating and he haddeveloped a blood clot in his left leg. Itwas then he was transferred to ArnoldPalmer Children’s Hospital, also in Or-lando.

The LaFountains canceled their returnflight to stay with Josh while he was inthe hospital and later learned he wouldrequire more extensive medical treat-ment. LaFountain said their family wastold the safest way to transport their sonto Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burling-ton, Vt., was by air ambulance.

“The only way the company wouldtransport Josh is if we paid up front,”said LaFountain. “Luckily, we had acredit card with a limit high enough wecould charge it.”

Upon Josh’s arrival, doctors at Fletch-er Allen performed a kidney biopsy andmore blood tests, ultimately confirm heindeed has Wegener ’s disease, a veryrare, incurable autoimmune disease inwhich blood vessels are inflamed.

“The treatment for this disease con-sists of a combination of a high dose ofsteroids and chemotherapy drugs,” saidJosh’s mother. “It’s not curable; it’streatable. He’ll always live with this dis-ease.”

The heavy regimen of medication Joshis on is geared toward putting his dis-ease in remission, though, if that hap-pens, there is always the chance it couldcome back, she said. Eventually, Joshwill need a kidney transplant.

Currently, the LaFountains are seek-ing the consultation of a doctor fromBoston Medical Center who specializesin Wegener ’s disease. The doctor, saidJosh’s mother, is reviewing her son’srecords to determine whether or notJosh is in remission at this point and todevelop a plan of action for furthertreatment.

The belief is that Josh is indeed in re-mission, she said, however even if he is,he’ll still need to remain on some formsof medication. Once he’s deemed in re-mission, he’ll still have to wait six to 12months before he can even receive a kid-ney transplant.

“Right now, it’s just watch and wait,”she said.

But, friends of the LaFountains aren’twaiting.

Deborah Dragoon, a family friendwho works with Josh’s mother at WyethPharmaceuticals research facility inChazy, is joining with her fellow co-workers to host a benefit next Saturday,Aug. 29, in Josh’s honor. The benefit —

to be held at Veterans of Foreign WarsPost 1418 on St. John Road in Champlain— will be to help with medical expens-es accrued by the LaFountains, includ-ing covering the cost of the medivacservice from Orlando to Burlington. TheLaFountains are currently in negotia-tions with their insurance company re-garding covering the cost of the service,which amounts to more than $15,000.

“They’re in a situation where theyneed a little more than what insurance isgoing to cover and that’s what we’rehere for,” said Dragoon.

“We’re very appreciative of every-thing she’s doing and our co-workersfamily and friends for helping us,” saidLaFountain. “Deb started this ballrolling and we really appreciate it.”

The benefit will be held next Saturdayfrom 12-8 p.m. and consist of michigan,hamburger and hot dog dinners and sev-eral family-oriented activities. Enter-tainment will be provided by the BlindPigs Blues Band from 12-2 p.m. and anauction of donated items will be heldfrom 2-4 p.m.

During the event, a representativefrom Fletcher Allen will be on-hand todiscuss the kidney donation process.

Those interested in being tested to be-come a kidney donor, but unable to at-tend the benefit, may also contact thetransplant coordinator at Fletcher Allenat 1-802-847-4291. Donations toward thebenefit may be arranged by contactingDragoon at 493-3120.

tions are part of the second phase of atwo-phase project, the first of which in-volved installing new boilers last sum-mer. The second phase consists mainly ofinstalling new heating units, lighting,flooring and ceilings in the building’sclassrooms and hallways, all of whichMulligan expects to be complete by thebeginning of the new school year Tues-day, Sept. 8.

“This building is now over 40 years old,so you have heating units, for example,that were in place that are no longermade. Getting parts for them is very dif-ficult,” said Mulligan. “It’s going to be amuch more efficient system in place. Thelighting will be better, more conducive toacademic learning versus the old lightingsystem.”

The lighting being installed will bemore energy-efficient, said Mulligan. Theunits will be equipped with sensors to de-tect sunlight, dimming accordingly whenpossible and relying less on electric pow-er.

“There’s certainly going to be somecost savings in the electric bill,” said Mul-ligan.

The school’s exterior and grounds haveseen the beginning installation of a newroof, masonry work and the installationof new sidewalks — the last of which wasa much-needed improvement, said Mulli-gan.

“We’ve had a number of our walkways

that, over the course of time with heavingin the winter time and spring time,they’ve cracked and posed potential safe-ty issues,” he said.

The rest of the second phase, whichMulligan refers to as “Phase 2B,” will becompleted next summer when renova-tions to the elementary level classroomsand the remainder of the roofwork arecompleted.

“They’re actually ahead of the game onthe roof,” said Mulligan, who noted themajority of the work has been completed.

Throughout the course of the project,the school district has been working witharchitectural and engineering firmBernier and Carr Associates, Watertown,and general contractor Neagley & ChaseConstruction Company, South Burling-ton, Vt. The district has also utilized theservices of William J. Murray Inc., K & LPlumbing and Heating, Titan Roofing,and Monahan Brothers Inc., with the con-tractors all working “very well together”to minimize the amount of work that willbe done as students return in the fall.

“I’ve been assured the school will beready when the students return,” saidMulligan, adding he acknowledges thereis “much to be done” in the next fewweeks.

“The ambience of the school will bemuch nicer — new and improved as theysay,” he added.

PLATTSBURGH — PineHarbour Assisted Living israising money and is look-ing to the community for itssupport.

Terrianne D. Pavone, PineHarbour ’s community rela-tions director, said the facil-ity is looking to raise ap-proximately $80,000 to pur-chase a handicap-accessiblepassenger van or bus totransport their residents.Currently, Pine Harbour uti-lizes the Clinton CountyPublic Transportation sys-tem when residents need tobe transported.

Though Pavone gavemuch credit to the CCPT sys-tem, the facility would liketo be able to offer their morethan 50 residents an in-house transportation option.

“We’d like to have ourown van so we can take ourresidents to outings like go-ing out for ice cream or go-ing to the mall,” saidPavone. “Our residents arevery active and with the van,we’d be able to take themeverywhere. It would justopen up a world of possibil-ities for them.”

Those possibilities,Pavone added, could in-clude transporting residentsto and from other leisurelytrips to places like museumsand important trips such asdoctor appointments.

The actual model of van orbus Pine Harbour will pur-sue purchasing has not yetbeen decided, thoughPavone said the facilitywould need a vehicleequipped with a wheelchairlift and likely able to accom-modate 10 or so passengers.Due to the cost, Pine Har-bour is also examining pur-chasing the vehicle with oth-

er assisted living organiza-tions and sharing its use.

“We’d like to be able tohave the van within a year,”said Pavone.

Pine Harbour kicked offtheir fundraising effortsduring their second annualluau Aug. 9, which was wellattended, said Pavone. Sev-eral more events will be heldwithin the next year, includ-ing a casino night, trivianight and communitygarage sale. The first eventto be specifically held toraise money for the van willbe a spaghetti dinner andsilent auction. Though thedate has not officially beenset, Pavone said she expectsit will be held this fall andhas already begun planningfor the dinner and gatheringdonations from local busi-nesses for the auction.

“There are so many thingswe’re going to be doingwithin the next year,” saidPavone. “We decided ratherthan waiting to win the lot-tery, we’d go out and workto get this.”

“We’re so very fortunateto have our residents herewith us, so we want to doeven more to give back tothem,” Pavone continued.“We want to be able to offerthem that and be able tomake choices that enrichtheir lives. It’s very impor-tant to us.”

Those interested in con-tributing toward Pine Har-bour ’s fundraising effortsmay send donations in careof the Pine Harbour VanFund to 15 New HampshireSt., Plattsburgh, N.Y. 12903.

For more information,contact Pavone at 561-5307or via e-mail [email protected].

“If anyone has any ideasabout a fundraiser, we’d beopen to hearing about them,too,” she added.

PLATTSBURGH — It’s beena year in the making.

On Aug. 12, an estimated200 people stood outside theClinton County GovernmentCenter waiting to see what ablack drape on the building’sbrick wall would reveal.

It took 1,000 students, theClinton County Legislators,the Clinton County historianAnastasia Pratt, and the workof three dedicated women toproduce a historic mosaic mu-ral that is expected to last forhundreds of years.

Retired teacher SandraMorse and artists Sue Youngand Bucky Seiden spent thelast year working with sev-enth-graders in the nineschools in the county to createthe 36-foot long mural whichmerged history and art in theclassroom.

“This project was done aspart of the Quadricentennialcelebration and it will stand asa visible rendering of the his-tory of Clinton County,” saidLegislator James R. LangleyJr., R-Area 7, during his speechbefore the unveiling of themural, “from the pre-colonial

times through the late 19thcentury.”

“I was fortunate to have thisopportunity to visit Peru Cen-tral School to see for myself,not only the amount of timeand energy dedicated to themosaic, but also the amount ofpride and enthusiasm thesestudents have for the project,”Langley added. “It is truly re-markable.”

Legislator Harry McManus,D-Area 1, also spoke beforethe unveiling of the project ti-tled, “Clinton County HistoryThrough the Eyes of its Chil-dren,” stating the county is apart of Samuel de Cham-plain’s legacy.

“In the 16th century, Samuelde Champlain’s dream for anew world and a new human-ity was where people from dif-ferent cultures could live to-gether in peace and harmony,”said McManus. “It was rootedin the Renaissance and in-spired the Enlightenment pe-riod in our history. ClintonCounty is part of that legacy.”

“Our Quadricentennial pur-pose was to celebrate its histo-ry and heritage, but we alsowanted the project to be last-ing and visible,” McManusadded. “This mosaic had all

the parameters, an additionthat will welcome generationsof Clinton County residents totheir government center.”

Following his speech, Mc-Manus called on eight stu-dents who were part of theproject to come forth and helpbring down the drape thatcovered the mural.

Soon after it was revealed,the crowd merged forward toget a closer look at the mosaic,with many students searchingto find their own tiles.

“Everyone we talked to ...was just amazed at how itcame out,” said Morse. “Be-cause most people had not seeany of it before it was un-veiled, which was good.”

“The students that werethere, I think, were thrilled tosee how their tiles were put inthe whole design,” addedMorse.

Since the unveiling, Morsehas been to the mural twice.

“Every time I have gone upthere, there have been at leasttwo people, and often peoplewith cameras, who are takingpictures and looking at it,” shesaid. “I do think it’s going tobring a lot of joy to the peoplewho go to the governmentcenter.”

Mosaic mural unveiled after year-long effort

Two students who helped create the mosaic mural on the Clinton County Government Center in Plattsburgh, take in the finished projectafter unveiling the mural during a special ceremony Aug. 12. More photos of the unveiling may be found on-line at www.denpubs.com.

In my last column, Isummarized data fromthe recently released,

Adirondack Park RegionalAssessment Report. The doc-ument researched issuesconcerning local communi-ties, residents and the eco-nomic state of the region.

The report detailed a num-ber of disturbing trends thatshould be of great concern toall Adirondack residents orany others who care aboutthe park.

The Adirondack Park hasoften been touted as a model for conserva-tion and preservation where “man and na-ture coexist, side by side, in a sustainablefashion.”

If population trends continue at the cur-rent rate, however, the model will soon beobsolete. It may remain a park, but therewill be far fewer people and little or no sus-tainable economy.

While there is no denying the fact that theAdirondacks remain a unique and beautifulplace, the statistics reveal a rather seedy sidethat is hidden in the underbelly of the park.

According to the report, the Adirondackpopulation is aging at a pace roughly threetimes the national average. Smaller com-munities that form the core of the park areatrophying. Second home owners and sea-sonal residents now constitute a majority inthese communities.

Some Hamilton County communities havebeen described as “dark towns,” becausethere isn’t a single light shining from a win-dow in the winter. Villages have been shut-tered for the winter when the majority of res-idents are second home owners.

“Inside the park” residents are on averagefive years older than residents of the stateand communities inside the Blue Line haveexperienced an increase in median age ofnearly nine years while the median age ofout of the park residents has risen by onlythree years in the same timeframe.

Of greatest concern is a notable decline inresidents under the age of 10 and a growingexodus of residents between the ages of 20and 35 (the child bearing years).

Students in grades K-12 represent only13.5 percent of the park’s population, ascompared to 18 percent nationally.

School enrollments in the park have de-creased by 329 students annually through-out the current decade, which is equivalentto the loss of one average size Adirondackschool district every 19 months.

Schools are the epicenter of a community.When a community can no longer afford aschool system, it is the societal equivalent ofheart failure.

A community without children will notsurvive. Schools define a place. They are thethread that holds the social fabric of a com-munity together. Schools are the society’scenter, a place for alumni to return and fam-ilies to meet. Its the place were sports, the-atre, concerts and other events happen.

Dr. Russell Rider, a community physicianbased in Long Lake explained, “Our popu-lation is going to further contract. The peo-

ple having children now arethe school teachers, they’reusually younger than most.But, what happens whenthere aren’t enough childrento support a school?”

When consolidation forcesrival schools to form as aunit, it further dilutes a com-munity’s spirit and inde-pendence. It is difficult to ac-cept former opponents asteammates, especially whenyou’ve grown up listening tostories about the rivalries.

Adirondackers, as a ruleare a very independent lot, they are proudof their hometowns and want them to re-main the same. Unfortunately, for many rea-sons, the reality of the situation points in theopposite direction.

There is no denying the fact that theAdirondacks have become a state sponsored(one out of every three jobs in the park iswith the government) and a state createdplayground. Many of the region’s most ex-clusive resorts cater primarily, as they oftentout, to the “wealthiest one percent of theworld.”

While the region may be within a daysdrive of over 120 million visitors, it is alsoaccessible in less than one hour ’s journey viaprivate jet.

The region may not have many contrac-tors employed in the construction of afford-able housing for local residents, but there isstill a huge demand for workers to constructprivate hangars at local airports or build lav-ish lakefront camps.

Historians labeled the period from the late1880’s through the early 1900’s as the “HeyDays of the Adirondacks.” It was a timewhen towns grew, commerce prospered andgrand hotels created a bubble of economicactivity.

While numerous Adirondack style “GreatCamps” sprouted up across the park duringthe Hey Days, there have been more, mod-ern day “Great Camps” built in the Tri-Lakes region over the last decade, than therewere historically existing in total across theentire park.

The current lull in the building industry,due primarily to the economic condition ofour country, has forced many local contrac-tors to seek work elsewhere.

Many local roofers, masons and carpen-ters are now working on the road outside theBlue Line. The same workers were previ-ously busy all season building new camps.

Ironically, in some instances, the state ofthe national economy was negatively influ-enced by the very bankers and investmentbrokers whose camps these guys built.

Is it any wonder that our local communi-ties are hemorrhaging their youth? What isleft for kids to do? What do they have to lookforward to? Are there any truly viable op-portunities for sustainable, year-round em-ployment?

And what do we have to offer to the youthof the park in terms of positive opportuni-ties for entertainment? Where are theirhangouts if there isn’t a local diner, bowl-ing alley, movie theatre, private gym or aplace to swim?

It would be wonderful if all of the park’sresident youth enjoyed outdoor activities,but we know that isn’t the case. Some indi-viduals are made for that life, many are not.

With such a glaring lack of opportunitiesfor positive recreational outlets, it’s no won-der that the allure of negative recreationaloutlets has become so enticing.

Last summer, I ran into a group ofteenagers along a remote stretch of theSchroon River, near the salmon weir inNorth Hudson. There were a few tents set upand a couple of pickup trucks.

I asked the group what was the draw thatbrought them into the woods? Why werethey visiting such a lonely, out of the way lo-cation?

I was hoping their answer would be be-cause they wanted to enjoy the deep woods,the rushing waters or experience the soli-tude of wilderness. I imagined they hadcome to fish, to swim and to sit around thecampfire. Unfortunately, they told me thetruth!

“We come out here to get away fromeveryone, not because we like it here, there’sjust no other place to hangout and have a

beer!” explained one teen.“Since we can’t legally drink until we’re

21, we’ve got to hide. And that’s why there’salways trash left behind. We don’t want tobe caught with a bunch of empties in thetruck on the way home.”

There was no talk about the beauty of thepristine wilderness, no conversation aboutloons, brook trout or soaring mountainpeaks. The conversation centered on the lackof entertainment. Sure, they could alwayshunt or fish or hike or bike, but we must re-member that teens will be teens.

“If we had a local hangout, it would bereal cool,” explained a red-haired fellow.“But, we’d still have to come back here todrink our beer.”

It’s a sad statement on the state of the parkwhen the main draw of wilderness for ouryouth, is a place to sneak a beer. What doesit say about our future?

Currently, the scholarship has been set up where one stu-dent will be chosen to receive $500 after their first semesterand another will be chosen as a back up. If the first studentpasses their first semester, they will receive the scholarshipmoney, if not, it will go to the second student.

“Right now it’s small, and we know it’s small,” saidHeath. “If I had my choice, and I’m sure if Cindy had herchoice, and I was Donald Trump, I would pay for the fouryears. But until we get enough money in [the fund] and getit established and get it built, that’s what we want to do.”

The tournament is planned to be held annual to help buildthe funds for the scholarship.

LeBeau, who has been on the American Legion softballleague for 30 years, decided to have the tournament playedwith wooden bats, and a 2/1 start — where hitters will al-ready have two balls and one strike when they get up to bat,to move the game along faster. There will also be a 12-footarc limit, to even the playing field.

“There’s going to be some old timers playing and proba-bly some women playing and younger kids playing,”LeBeau explained. “So, 12-foot is basically just [lobbing] itin there so they can hit it plain as day.”

The winner of the tournament will receive a trophy witha picture of Stephanie and Courtney on it. But LeBeau hopesthe trophy will be placed in the SSHS trophy case.

“Every year we’ll put who won the tournament on the bot-tom; we’ll just put the team name and it will stay in theschool.”

Other events planned for the weekend are a horseshoetournament, music, food, raffles, auctions, and kid activi-ties including a bouncy house. Events will be held from 9a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

“There’s going to be something for everyone,” saidAlexander.

“Everybody that finds out wants to help and do some-thing,” LeBeau said. “Which is great.”
