Renovations to new library building near completion CHAZY — The new home for the Chazy Public Library is nearing completion. Emily Castine, president of the library’s board of di- rectors, said a two-year process to relocate the li- brary from its current home on State Route 9 in the ham- let of Chazy is coming to a close as crews finish interior work at the new location on Fiske Road. The library will relocate to the former office of the late Dr. George W. Clark, located around the corner from the Stewart’s Shop on State Route 9. “We’ve got shelving going up this week, which we hope to have totally in- stalled by Wednesday,” Cas- tine said in an interview Monday afternoon. “We’re going to then be expecting our cabinetry and our circu- lation desk to be next.” “Everything seems to be going along quite well,” she added. Furnishings for the new library’s reading rooms are also on order, Castine also noted. The project began two years when the library re- ceived a matching grant to cover the cost of making the building handicap-accessi- ble and renovating its ground floor, said Castine. That grant was for $160,000, with Friends of the Library, the library’s fundraising arm, required to provide $80,000. Through various fundrais- ers and charitable dona- tions, the organization was able to do so, said Castine. The second and current phase has consisted of pro- SARANAC — Julieann Carter has been tracing family histories for friends and family for nearly three decades. And, when she was diagnosed last year with Ramsay Hunt syndrome — a con- dition which can cause partial paraly- sis, it limited her ability to travel and left her looking for a way to occupy her time. “One day, I went to the Saranac Country Store, and someone there men- tioned they wished there was a ge- nealogical society nearby,” said Carter. “So, for the next couple days I pon- dered the idea.” It wasn’t long before pondering turned to action.

The crew which put inseveral hours of work on theproject consisted of Chen-

evert and friends NancyBaker, Kay Papin, JudyMousseau, Mary Racicotand Geri Favreau.

“It was a lot of work forus girls, but we had somehelp,” said Chenevert, cred-iting village trustees BrianB. Jefferson and Francis J.Baker for contributing theirown time and money to-ward the project.

“We’re just hoping a lotmore people will use [thegazebo] now and enjoy it,”said Chenevert. “It reallyadds to the beauty of ourvillage.”

“I checked with FatherDon Kramberg,” said Carter,referring to the pastor of theChurch of the Assumption inRedford, “and I told him myintentions. He thought itwas a good idea.”

Kramberg gave Carterpermission for the new ge-nealogical society to meet inthe basement of the churchrectory, which Carter saidgave the group more thanenough space.

“I thought it looked goodwhen they showed it to me,”said Carter. “It was justright. I thought we could al-ways start out small thereand it gives us room as weget bigger.”

The group soon came to-gether under the name“Saranac Valley CCNY andCanada Genealogy Society,”with CCNY standing for“Clinton County, NewYork,” said Carter.

“We decided to do that tomake the name shorter,” shesaid.

Carter joined with friendsand fellow local history-en-thusiasts John Gould,Colleen Seney, Mary Scott,and John Tedford and thegroup was off and running.

The Northern New Yorkand Canadian GenealogicalSociety, particularly GloriaPratt, said Carter, helped gether group going by donatingseveral books which are nowused to help people tracetheir family histories. Kar-goe Carpet Cleaner ownerand operator Chuck Kargoealso donated computers and

office supplies to help thegroup get established, sheadded.

“We can’t thank themenough for all they’vedone,” said Carter.  “Itmeans a great deal to us.”

The donations havehelped people learn moreabout old photographs intheir family photo albumsand answer questions aboutfamiliar locations in thearea.

“What we always hearabout in our area are storiesof the War of 1812 and themilitary, which is great,don’t get me wrong. I lovehearing these stories,” saidCarter. “But, what about theeveryday people, the com-mon folk? That’s harder tofind information about.”

“We want to help peoplewith those little unsolvedmysteries,” said Seney. “We

want to help them learnmore about their lovedones.”

The genealogical societymeets in the church rectoryoff Clinton Street the lastThursday of each month at 6p.m. The next event to beheld by the group will be aspaghetti dinner fundraiserat American Legion Post1618, 275 Wilson Road, thisSaturday, Nov. 12.

The dinner will begin at 4p.m. and cost $6.50 per per-son. The event will include a50-50 drawing, raffles andentertainment by DJ LouAllen. Proceeds will go to-ward the purchasing ofbooks needed to help peopletrace their family histories.

After-school programscancelled as a resultBy Katherine [email protected]

SARANAC — A generator failure atSaranac Central School has promptedemergency action by the school boardand left after-school programs in thedark last week.

During the regular meeting of theSaranac Central School District boardmeeting Nov. 1, the board approved anemergency plan to replace the school’s45-year-old generator. The 100-kilowattdiesel generator is expected to cost ap-proximately $200,000.

Without an emergency source of elec-tricity in place, the district was forced tosuspend all after-school activities lastweek, including a high school fall con-cert scheduled Nov. 2.

As a temporary fix, the district rent-ed a 75-kilowatt generator until the per-manent one was installed Nov. 4.

Superintendent Kenneth O. Cringlesaid the generator failure at the SaranacMiddle/High School campus showedhow important the need for system up-dates are immediately.

“That's the problem with aging sys-tems, most of the time you can repairthem, but they are extremely costly;that’s the disadvantage,“ Cringle said.

Not replacing these systems would“cost taxpayers much more in the longrun, escalating repair cost, and in situa-tions like this it’s really going to hit ushard if we do not have time to replacesomething,” he said.

For the past few years the generatorhas consistently failed, been repaired,and failed again, prompting the boardto include its replacement in a $5.6 mil-lion capital improvement plan.

That plan, which includes updatingenergy and safety systems, is being paid

for by a state EXCEL grant, with no im-pact to local taxpayers. EXCEL grantsare available to all public school dis-tricts in New York State and may beused for energy, technology and safetyimprovements.

Unfortunately, the unexpected failureof the generator forced the school boardto rent the temporary generator andmake the generator ’s replacement anemergency project, instead of having itreplaced as part of the planned capitalimprovements.

Nevertheless, Cringle said about 90percent of the $200,000 emergency proj-ect can be covered from an emergencyaid from the state, including the rentalof the temporary generator.

“So, the downside is we have to usefund balance monies, because we didn'thave it planned, but the upside is we'll

be able to recuperate 90 percent of it be-cause of eligibility for building aid,”Cringle said. “It shouldn't affect taxes.We'll still use some fund balance wedidn't plan on using but we certainlywon't use it to the tune of $200,000.”

The generator, in case of power out-ages, is the school’s emergency back upfor any electrical failure including light-ing, heating, and the coolers for thecafeteria.

Cringle said the board was under theimpression there were backup batterysystems the school could have used inthe meantime, but it was determinedthat alternative was too costly. The bat-teries cost $15,000 a year.

The board is expected to enter into aformal contract to replace the generatorduring its next regular board meetingTuesday, Nov. 15.

Generator failure forces emergency action

The generator at Saranac Central School failed last week, prompting an emergency expendi-ture and the cancellation of after-school activities. The board of education is expected to en-ter into a formal contract to replace the generator during its next regular board meeting Tues-day, Nov. 15.

“Our fundraising team hasdone a great job, and we receivedsome sizable donations fromroom namings,” said Castine,noting higher-level donors wereable to have a room named afterthem in the new library.

“The second year has been alittle harder, but things are com-ing right along,” she added.

What will help the overall costof the move — estimated between$240,000 and $250,000 — will bethe efforts of Friends of the Li-brary and grants like the ones al-

ready received, said Castine. Lastweek, Castine said she was noti-fied the library was awarded a$10,000 grant from the Charles R.Wood Foundation through theAdirondack Community Trust.

“We were so delighted,” Cas-tine said of the news. “Every-thing just seems to be coming to-gether.”

The library is set to move to itsnew location Saturday, Nov. 26,with help of the Chazy LionsClub.

“It’s a great effort on their partand very generous,” said Cas-tine. “We’re so appreciative ofthem.”

An official grand opening isexpected to be held in December,with details forthcoming.

North Countryman Editorial

Clarity in government is essen-tial for the participation ofthe people. In few places is

that clarity as important as a town orcity budget.

The town budget has a great impacton people's daily lives. But manybudgets presented to citizens, espe-cially in smaller towns, are difficult toread. The documents are full of abbre-viations and tightly-packed figuresthat may capture the spirit and themost essential information on thebudget process, but it’s meaningless tomost citizens.

A budget summary or narrative canbe helpful. The issue with one of theseattached to a budget that citizens can'tread is that they don't know exactlyhow trustworthy or inclusive the in-formation is; they can't verify it ontheir own. This is a tall hurdle thatmakes it hard for constituents to feelempowered.

The role of government is the au-thoritative allocation of scarce re-sources. Towns' budget officers areworking to stay under the 2 percenttax cap, and for some towns this canmean a few thousand dollars up ordown. With that little wiggle room, in-formed feedback from constituents ismore valuable than usual this budgetyear.

The role of citizens is to hold theirrepresentatives accountable. If the citi-zens can't account for the money theirgovernment is spending, they're miss-ing out on participating in the mostimportant function of their governingbody.

The problem with many of thesepublicly distributed documents is theirextreme brevity. There's a lot of infor-mation to put in there, but handingout small books for public review isawfully inefficient. Paper's not whatit used to be in this 21st century.

Space was a consideration in those

bygone days before data bits flewthrough cables and airwaves, bringingus funny cats and free news articles.Now, all that bandwidth required forMittens' latest mishap can easily ac-commodate a bigger document packedwith easier-to-digest line items.

A modern revolution in informationdesign provides many solutions to thatproblem.

Cook County, Ill. made a visualiza-tion tool called “Look at Cook” avail-able online for its citizens. The toolfeatures an interactive line graphshowing year-to-year spending, withline items that can be drilled downthrough until users see exactly wheretheir town’s money is spent. The pro-gram is an open source, meaning it’sfree to use, though it does requiresome amount of technical expertise.

In Portsmouth, N.H., a city councilcandidate named Jack Thorsen hasposted a tool that shows the municipalbudget in a pie chart. That by itself isnothing impressive, but as soon as theuser hovers their mouse cursor overthe graphic it comes alive, spinningand expanding.

When a slice of the chart is clicked,say “Library,” a list opens to the rightof the chart, documenting how the li-brary funds are spent exactly, fromovertime to postage to book-binding.Thorsen is developing his visualiza-tion tool as a business venture.

At a time when citizens and budgetofficers are calling for more creativityin allocating those scarce resources, alittle creativity in presenting the budg-et can make community input a lotmore valuable.

This editorial is the collaborative opin-ion of a board comprised of Thom Randall,Fred Herbst, Lou V arricchio, Keith Lob-dell, Jeremiah Papineau, Andy Flynn andJohn Gereau. Comments may be directed [email protected].

Spending plans need to bepresented in readable form It’s been called a mira-

cle. Others call it anecessity. And yet by

some it’s a matter of his-toric proportion. But nomatter what you call it ourtwo year and a month sen-tence of life in the NorthCountry without the LakeChamplain Bridge has nowcome to an end.

Estimated to take up toeight years to rebuild, thespan, condemned in Octo-ber of 2009, had stood for over 81 years.The new bridge erected in the same his-toric spot now stands as a shining exam-ple of what can be accomplished evenwhen the odds are not in your favor.

The public was repeatedly told justbefore its closure, that the bridge wassafe. Then like a lightning strike thebridge was closed and within a fewweeks completely demolished. Anychance of a reprieve for the old girl wassent to the bottom on that cold snowyDecember day.

Like so many things in life we take forgranted, none of us living in the regionimagined life without this major arterybetween New York and Vermont. Thedevastation on family lives, work sched-ules, interstate commerce and medicalnecessities seemed almost unbearable atthe time. Locals were quick to realize anextraordinary effort was an absolutemust, but the thought of getting twostate governments, the federal govern-ment and a host of bureaucratic agen-cies to come together, recognize thegravity of the situation and respondrapidly, even knowing what we knownow today, seemed like a lot to expect.

We all owe a considerable amount tothe many volunteer organizers who ral-lied to the cause, all of our local electedofficials who joined in the effort, thestate agency workers and the two gover-nors and their staffs all who clearly un-derstood the significant importance ofthe bridge between Crown Point, NYand Addison, VT.

At a time when the economy was al-ready struggling and in an area where

critical mass does not existin comparison to morepopulated regions, thenew Champlain LakeBridge stands today as ashining monument to whatpeople and governmentcan accomplish when trulypressed for a quick realis-tic solution to a dire prob-lem.

Perhaps like those whowere here when the firstLake Champlain Bridge

was erected in 1929, every time theywent by the bridge or travel across itsspan they remembered what travel waslike before the bridge stood. Neveragain in our life times will we ever takethe bridge for granted nor forget thosedays before the Lake Champlain FerryTransportation Company was able to re-store a temporary passage across thelake. Never again will any of us who de-pend on the bridge for our livelihoods,or even a day of relaxed travel ever for-got what life was like without that allimportant link.

And we should never forget all thosewho worked night and day through thefrigid cold of our North Country win-ters, nor the blistering summer heat torestore the bridge. The bridge stands asa proud marker to the Bridge Coalitionand all those who played a role in itsrestoration. None of us will ever crossthis bridge or any bridge again withoutthinking of its importance to the peoplewho live there and have come to dependso heavily on the strength of its exis-tence.

True, heart felt “Appreciation” is atremendous gift, and it’s the ribbon ontop of that shining new bridge that onceagain graces our beautiful Lake Cham-plain. May we never again think of any-thing but true appreciation for it andthose who helped make it happen when-ever it comes into sight.

Iwill admit that I am one ofthose people who always try topostpone turning on the heat.

While I could argue that I want toconserve energy or keep my heatingbill low, I think it is really denial. Idon’t want to fully admit that winteris approaching.

By this point, there is no denyingthe approaching winter. The heat ison, the air is dry and my humidifiersare out and in full use. While humid-ifiers are great for us during the win-ter months, I also run them for myhouseplants.

Most houseplants prefer humidity levels of 40 to50 percent. Unfortunately, the air inside our cen-trally-heated homes usually falls somewhere nearthe 10 to 30 percent range during the winter. Tohouseplants (especially tropical houseplants), thiscan feel like living in the desert.

If your houseplants are showing any of the fol-lowing symptoms, the air around them may be toodry: leaf tips are brown and shriveled, leaf edgesare turning yellow and wilting, buds and flowersare shriveling and falling off, or the plant is drop-ping leaves.

Humidifiers are a great way to increase the rela-tive humidity in your home during the wintermonths. I have several large humidifiers running inmy house during the winter. But, you don’t need toraise the humidity of your entire house, just confine

your plants and your humidifier toa single room.

Certain rooms in the house, likebathrooms, kitchens and laundryrooms, tend to have higher relative-ly humidity (moister air). As long asthey offer plants adequate exposureto light, consider temporarily relo-cating sensitive plants to theserooms during the winter season.

Another method for increasingthe relative humidity around yourhouseplants is to place them ontrays or saucers filled with pebblesand water. The bottoms of the pots

should remain above the level of the water to pre-vent the roots from standing in water. As waterevaporates from the pebble tray, it will increase thehumidity in the air surrounding the plants.

Many people try to increase the humidity bymisting with a water bottle. Unfortunately, thismethod is not as effective as other humidity in-creasing methods. Over misting your plants canalso lead to fungal growth, especially if the plantremains wet during the night.

Sound budget developedThe Town of Peru’s Preliminary Budget for 2012 is ready for

public scrutiny and the town’s tax levy is well below the 2 per-cent cap. Tax levies for Town General, Town Highway re-mained the same as the 2011 levy. The Town Sere tax levy in-creased by 2 percent due to increased NYS Retirement and em-ployee health insurance costs, but did meet the tax cap re-quirement of no more than 2 percent. The Valcour Sewer Dis-

trict tax levy decreased fromlast year due to the retirementof a bond that was secured topay for much-neededrepair/upgrade work in thatdistrict. The Peru Water Districttax levy decreased due to anupcoming bond retirementwhich will occur after next yearbegins. The 2012 budget in-cludes a 1.5 percent cost of liv-ing raised for town employees,both elected and appointed.

The 2012 town budget taxlevy is a direct result of the hardwork of the town board,

Brandy McDonald, Kregg Bruno, Sue Polhemus and Jim Dou-glass and all of the department heads and staff of the town. Iwould like to thank them for the time and energy they allspent in producing a budget that still provides the high levelof services that town residents have come to expect. Through-out the process, they made sound economic decisions that al-lowed us to absorb increased mandated costs with little effectupon the taxpayer. I also would like to express my apprecia-tion for the hard work of all town employees throughout thispast year, a year that sometimes strained our ability to accom-plish what was needed on behalf of the town’s residents. Yourefforts are greatly appreciated

United Way helps manyAs a town and county supervisor, I know first-hand that

government is not always the answer for all of our needs. Wehave to rely on many other services and people who are thereto lend a helping hand.

How would you feel to know there was an organizationthere to help when your elderly parents, children, grandchil-dren, friends or neighbors needed assistance? I’ll tell you howI feel — relieved and thankful and that is exactly how youshould feel knowing United Way of the Adirondack Region ishere in our tri-county communities.

We are very fortunate to have United Way and the 39 part-ner agencies striding to be a leader in community partnershipbuilding and to increase the organized capacity of people tocare for one another.

For these organizations to maintain the capability to pro-vide much needed services, we have to reach deep into ourhearts and give a donation that you can afford — remember,there is no donation too small; every little bit helps.

A wise friend once of mine once said, “that separately weaccomplish little, but together we can accomplish the extraor-dinary.”

Thank you for your continued generosity and support to-wards the United Way of the Adirondacks Inc.

Since I hadsuch agreat re-

sponse to myLunchbox 101 se-ries, I have decid-ed to continue theseries on a month-ly basis through-out the schoolyear. Now that theweather is gettingcooler, I like toknow my kids willhave somethingwarm in their bellies for lunch.Some simple ideas are to pack left-overs from the night before like:

• Spaghetti• Mac and cheese• Raviolis• Baked ziti or lasagna• Cooked rice with leftover meat

and/or veggies• Beans and riceSome other ideas that have gone

over well are:• Oatmeal — try to make it inter-

esting. My girls like it with peanutbutter and a little agave syrup, oryou can try my pumpkin oatmealrecipe from last week’s article.

• Warm soup witha cheese sandwich orsome cheese andcrackers — Tomatosoup is great here,but I have also heat-ed up a broth andadded fun shapedpastas.

• You can findhealthier versions ofchicken nuggets orhomemade chickenstrips with dippingsauce on the side.

Food safety is very important, sobe sure to purchase a thermos tokeep food warm/hot untillunchtime. I’d love to hear some ofyour healthy lunchbox ideas. Feelfree to e-mail me your ideas andyou may get your idea or recipefeatured in a future addition ofLunchbox 101.

ELCS teachertalks experiencewith therapydog ‘Rowdy’By Keith [email protected]

PLATTSBURGH — Stu-dents in the Council for Ex-ceptional Students at SUNYPlattsburgh were excited tomeet their guest of honor ata Nov. 3 event, and maybegive him a little rub behindthe ears.

The guest was Rowdy,who for the last eight yearshas teamed with Elizabeth-town-Lewis math teacherRalph Holzhauer to helpstudents at the school inreading and writing.

Holzhauer said he wasused to the attention goingto his four-legged partner.

“I’ve gotten used to walk-ing through the halls andthe kids saying hi to Rowdybut not to me,” Holzhauertold the group of studentsand others who attendedthe presentation at the An-gell Center on the PSUCcampus. “I’m just the mathteacher on the other end ofthe leash.”

Holzhauer said that Row-dy, a Newfoundland, hasbeen trained in numerousareas and has received Ver-satile Newfoundland recog-nition.

“It’s like being named tothe hall of fame for hisbreed,” Holzhauer said.

Holzhauer talked abouthow Rowdy is used withstudents in the elementaryclasses with dog-assistededucation and therapy, in-cluding reading and writingprograms, special instruc-tion programs, assisted ac-tivities and therapies andextra curricular activities.

Holzhauer said theyounger students will cometo his high school mathroom, located upstairs with,“the big kids.”

“At first, one of the con-cerns for the kids was com-ing up with the big kids,”Holzhauer said. “I don’tknow how he does it, butRowdy always knows whenthey are coming and will an-nounce their presence witha bark or two and that helps.Of course, its great in themorning when you have amath student who may notbe quite awake and to watchthem jump when he barks.”

Holzhauer said school of-ficials have been very excit-ed about how Rowdy hashelped out and gave exam-ples of how he was able tohelp students in writing andreading.

“One sixth grader wrotethat, ‘even if you didn’t readthe best, he would alwayslisten and love you.’ Thatstudent is now in ninth-grade, and Rowdy looks

forward to her coming ineach morning, so it hascome full circle,” he said.

Holzhauer also said olderstudents have been able toread to Rowdy in their for-eign language classes.

“Some of the kids whoread to Rowdy in elemen-tary school convinced theirFrench teacher to let themread their stories that theyhad written in French tohim,” Holzhauer said,adding, “Of course, he’smulti-lingual, so he stillseemed to understand andhe still listened.”

Holzhauer also gave anexample of how the pro-gram had worked with writ-ing.

“The first year of this, Ihad the second gradeteacher coming up to mewith tears in her eyes, ask-ing me to read a story a stu-dent had written,” he said.“It was a long story aboutRowdy. Then she told methat it was the first time thatthis student had ever writ-ten anything in class.”

Over the last eight years,Holzhauer said he thoughtevery student in the schoolhad at one time or anotherhad personal interactionswith Rowdy, whetherthrough reading in the littlesection of the high schoolmath classroom or in otherareas of the school day.

“I have been teaching for36 years,” Holzhauer said.

“After eight years withRowdy, I honestly can saythat I do not remember whatit was like without him.”

Sean Sullivan, a junior atPlattsburgh State and presi-dent of the Council for Ex-ceptional Students, who or-ganized the event, said theywere interested in howHolzhauer and Rowdy had

worked together in school.“We found out through

Connie Marsh (advisor tothe council) about Ralphand Rowdy and the waythat Rowdy is used to helpin the school,” Sullivansaid. “I think that it is a veryvaluable tool and kids likethe interaction with thedog.”

Members of the Council for Exceptional Students at SUNY Plattsburghget a chance to pet Rowdy before the Nov. 3 presentation by “the mathteacher on the other end of the leash,” Ralph Holzhauer.

Taste of Home Cooking School a success, organizers say

College students learn about ‘fur under the desk’

By Jeremiah S. [email protected]

PLATTSBURGH — The Crete Me-morial Civic Center was “packed”asDenton Publications and other finesponsors hosted the second annualTaste of Home Cooking School Nov.5.

Ed Coats, associate publisher ofDenton Publications and New Mar-ket Press, who has been organizingTaste of Home locally since first of-fering it in Burlington, Vt., six yearsago, said attendance for this year ’sevent exceeded his expectations.

“It was fantastic,” said Coats.“Though we don’t have the finalnumbers yet, we know we increasedour attendance from last year ... Itwas a packed house.”

Last year ’s event saw more than1,100 people turn out for cookingdemonstrations from chef MichaelBarna. This year, Eric Villegas wasthe featured culinary specialist. Vil-legas — who has owned two restau-rants, written two cookbooks, andearned two regional Emmy awardsfor his popular television show,“Fork in the Road with Eric Ville-gas” — wowed the crowd, saidCoats.

“Eric was great,” said Coats. “Hereally got the crowd going andshowed off some really amazingrecipes.”

Many people approached Coatsand the rest of the Denton Publica-tions staff who were on-hand for theevent, telling them how they en-joyed Villegas’ show and the varietyof vendors, said Coats.

“People loved the goodie bags,too,” said Coats, referring to thefree gift bags given to attendees.

The whole event, noted Coats,could not have happened withoutthe support of the vendors, atten-dees and sponsors Price Chopper,Wilson's Appliance Center, and Per-rywinkle’s Fine Jewelry.

Coats also credited the City ofPlattsburgh Recreation Departmentfor their hard work and departmentdirector Steve Peters.

“Steve and his staff are always apleasure to work with,” said Coats.

The show went so well, saidCoats, there’s already been talk ofhosting another in the spring, ratherthan waiting until next fall.

“We’re not sure at this point if wewill, but this event keeps gettingbigger and bigger, so who knows,”said Coats.

Vt. Gov. Shumlin,NY Lt. Gov. Duffyhelp cut ribbonBy Andy [email protected]

CROWN POINT — Hun-dreds of people lined up tocross the new $76 millionLake Champlain BridgeMonday, Nov. 7 — bicyclists,walkers, runners and, final-ly, the motorists.

First they had to get pastNew York Lt. Gov. RobertDuffy, Vermont Gov. PeterShumlin and a group of VIPsgiving speeches and cuttinga golden ribbon. Once thehour-long ceremony wasover, around 3:30 p.m., thepodium was removed, thewhite chairs stacked againstthe guard rail, and thecrowds streamed across thebridge to Vermont.

It had been more than twoyears since the 1929 bridgeclosed here on Oct. 16, 2009.Commuters and visitors hadto take a free ferry to get be-tween Crown Point, N.Y.and Addison, Vt. when theservice opened on Feb. 1,2010. The loss of the oldbridge was described multi-ple times as “an inconven-ience.”

While politicians lament-ed the old bridge — remem-bered well by more than adozen ’29ers who had beenat the original Aug. 26, 1929bridge opening — Nov. 7,2011 was the beginning of anew chapter in the history of

Lake Champlain.“I want to point out that

this is day one,” said Rep.Bill Owens, D-Plattsburgh.“We’re going to count for-ward from here.”

The concept of linking thetwo states with a new bridgewas a common theme amongthe speakers.

“When I looked out, as Iwas coming today, I saw thehands of the community, ofthe state of New York andthe federal governmentreaching out to one anotherto bring New York and Ver-mont back together again,”Owens said.

While some spoke of thebridge as a metaphor — con-necting the common valuesof Vermonters and NewYorkers in the ChamplainValley — others described itas a transportation link es-sential to the everyday livesof residents.

“It’s more than concreteand steel,” said New YorkAssemblywoman TeresaSayward, R-Willsboro. “It isthe link that the North Coun-try has to the closest traumaunit, and many ambulancesrun back and forth acrossthis bridge.”

Between Oct. 16, 2009 andFeb. 1, 2010, people had todrive around the old bridgesite to get to the other side, acommute of more than 100miles for work, hospital vis-its, vacations, etc. While theabsence of a bridge was abarrier, the presence of abridge is being seen as a steptoward normalcy.

“It’s a place where fire

companies run back andforth between Addison, Vt.and Crown Point and con-versely from Addison tohelp each other,” Saywardsaid. “It’s farmers who haveto cross this bridge to feedtheir cattle and to get theircrops. It’s people travelinginto New England, it’s NewEnglanders traveling intoNew York ... Today, your lifebegins again.”

Shumlin marveled at thespeed of the bridge’s con-struction.

“This is the best exampleof government serving peo-ple and getting things donethat you’ll find anywhere in

the nation,” Shumlin said.Duffy concurred. “If you were to turn on the

media and the news tonightand any story on any givenday, you hear about what’swrong with government.You hear all the bad thingsthat are going on in thisworld,” Duffy said. “And to-day, we get to celebrate whatis right ... to be where we aretoday in literally two years’time is nothing short of amiracle.”

Other speakers includedNew York State Departmentof Transportation Commis-sioner Joan McDonald; SueMinter, deputy secretary of

the Vermont Agency ofTransportation; VermontState Rep. Diane Lanpher, D-Vergennes; Jonathan Mc-Dade, New York division ad-ministrator for the FederalHighway Administration;Karen Hennessy (New York)and Lorraine Franklin (Ver-mont), co-chairs of the LakeChamplain Bridge Commu-nity; Crown Point Town Su-pervisor Bethany Kosmider;and New York Sen. Betty Lit-tle, R-Queensbury.

“I don’t know that you canhave a better bridge,” Littlesaid.

The new Network TiedArch Bridge is a steel struc-

ture with an arch along thecenter span. It was designedby Ted Zoli and built by Flat-iron Construction. Thebridge’s design makes itsafer than the previousstructure and will ensure atleast a 75-year service life.Key bridge components aredesigned to be easily re-placeable to reduce mainte-nance costs. Travel lanes are11 feet wide, with 5-footshoulders that will help ac-commodate larger trucksand farm vehicles, as well asprovide ample room for bi-cyclists. Sidewalks are fea-tured on both sides of thebridge.

New Lake Champlain Bridge opens with ceremony

Motorists travel between Crown Point, N.Y. and Addison, Vt. on the Lake Champlain Bridge around 4 p.m. Monday, Nov. 7 shortly after the newspan opened. More photos of the bridge opening ceremony can be found on-line at www.denpubs.com.

SCHUYLER FALLS —Planning has begun to re-place an aging bridge in the

hamlet of Morrisonville.Representatives from the

state Department of Trans-portation will hold a publicinformation meeting Tues-day, Nov. 15, to provide in-

formation and answer ques-tions about a project beingproposed by the state to re-place the State Route 22Bbridge over the Saranac Riv-er in downtown Mor-

risonville.“It’s an old, old bridge,”

Schuyler Falls Town Super-visor Harold Ormsby saidof the circa 1948 structure.“It’s needed to be replacedfor quite a few years.”

NYSDOT engineer DavidMoffatt said the state hasbeen examining replacingthe bridge for the past threeyears though noted the cur-rent structure is not consid-ered unsafe.

“There are just somestructural issues, rust andthings like that,” said Mof-fatt. “It’s just old.”

The replacing of thebridge — which could hap-pen as late summer 2013and wrap by fall 2014 — isnecessary before it gets tothe point where it would beunsafe, said Moffatt.

“It’s just to make suresomething doesn’t hap-pen,” emphasized Moffatt.“There is no critical issue.”

The estimated $9 millionbridge replacement projectwould be federally-fundedand involve building a tem-porary bridge adjacent tothe existing one as it is de-molished, said Moffatt.Temporary traffic signalswould be installed to regu-late traffic

and curbing, sidewalksand associated waterlineswill be replaced.

“It will be a slight incon-venience for motorists, butit shouldn’t be that bad,” hesaid.

The alternative wouldhave been to provide alengthy detour for traffic,which Moffatt said wouldlikely have not been favor-able for those who frequent-ly use the current bridge.

The new bridge will alsobe a steel truss structurewith an arch design similarto the current one. The newstructure will also have

wider lanes, added Moffatt. “As I understand it, there

have been accidents therebefore. This would hopeful-ly correct that,” said Mof-fatt.

Ormsby agreed the inter-section — specifically thewidth of the lanes them-selves on the bridge — hasbeen a potential accidentwaiting to happen over theyears.

“When you get one truckand another going throughthere, it’s tight,” said Orms-by.

As he understands it, thenew bridge will also behigher over the river, saidOrsmby.

“Which is good, becausewe’ve had ice jams [underthe bridge] before. Not inquite a few years, but it hashappened,” the supervisorsaid.

The Nov. 15 meeting willbe held from 5 to 7 p.m. atthe Schuyler Falls TownHall, 997 Mason St., in Mor-risonville.

Those interested in moreinformation on the projectmay contact Moffatt at 1-315-785-2303 or send corre-spondence to: David Mof-fatt, P.E., Region 7 Design,NYS Department of Trans-portation, Dulles State Of-fice Bldg., 317 WashingtonSt., Watertown N.Y. 13601.

The State Route 22B bridge which spans the Saranac River in downtown Morrisonville is scheduled to be re-placed in late summer 2013. A meeting will be held Tuesday, Nov. 15, to provide the public with informationon the project.

PLATTSBURGH — The Section VII fallsports season has come to an end, but not forall, as champions in soccer, football, crosscountry, volleyball and swimming now pre-pare for regional and state competition.

FootballClass B

The Peru Indians jumped out to a 21-0 leadthen held on as the Beekmantown Eaglesscored 14 unanswered and may have scoredthe tying touchdown if not for a strange playduring the Section VII Class B title gameNov. 5.

The Indians, who captured the title with a21-14 score, were able to force a fumble afterBeekmantown’s Luke Weaver had caught apass and ran for what appeared to be a 66-yard scoring play. However, the officialsnever blew their whistles, and Peru recov-ered the fumble.

“The officials said that he had nevercrossed the plane,” Beekmantown headcoach Jamie Lozier said. “However, we did-n’t do anything in the first half and it is frus-trating when we prepared as hard as we didthroughout the week and then had a lot ofthings go wrong.”

“I would have preferred to have ended alittle better on defense, “Peru head coachNick Damiani said. “We did a nice job defen-sively through the first three quarters, butthe combinations of Carter Frechette andLuke Weaver started clicking. They playedtough, and they had an opportunity to getthe ball and tie the game.”

Damiani said that the title was somethingthat would sink in later on, and that the teamwould enjoy it until it was time to preparefor Schalmont on Monday.

“I told them to enjoy tonight and tomor-row, then on Monday we come back to thepractice field and do it all over again. Wewant to take Section VII football down toSection II and make some noise.”

Class CThe Saranac Lake Red Storm rolled out to

a 57-0 lead, while the AuSable Valley Patri-ots scored twice in the fourth quarter as theStorm advanced to face Hoosick Falls for thesecond straight year in the Class C regionals

with a 57-16 win Nov. 5.Matt Phelan combined 42 yards rushing

and a touchdown with 184 yards and fourtouchdowns passing to pace the SaranacLake offense.

Boys soccerClass B

The Beekmantown Eagles proved thattheir semifinal win over the NortheasternClinton Cougars was not a fluke as the third-seeded Eagles scored a 1-0 win over the fifth-ranked team in the state, the PlattsburghHornets, to capture the Class B title.

“I was looking up the field and was ableto run through the ball,” Austin Burl, whoscored the lone goal for the Eagles, said.

“We focused 100 percent and made surethat we played every ball out in each gameof the sectionals,” sweeper Keon Jahan-bakhsh said.

“We are on a roll right now and I wouldlike to see this team go deep into the statetournament,” Eagles head coach Ryan Loucysaid.

Class CThe Northern Adirondack Bobcats jumped

out to an early lead over the Lake Placid BlueBombers and did not look back in scoring the3-0 win.

Nolan Ferguson scored in the fourthminute of the game off an assist from ScottKellett, while Shane Trudeau connected on apass from Josh Rabideau in the 17th minuteand Justin Kellett scored 1:13 seconds laterto give the Bobcats a 3-0 lead that wouldhold for the rest of the contest.

Ethan Mousseau made seven saves in thewin for the Bobcats, who advanced to re-gional play with a record of 7-8-0. J.P. Mor-rison made 14 saves in the loss, as the BlueBombers finished the 2011 season with arecord of 5-9-0.

Class DThe Chazy Eagles took their first lead in

168 minutes of play against the WillsboroWarriors in the Nov. 5 Class D championshipgame, and were able to hold the 1-0 advan-tage for 72 more minutes in scoring a ClassD championship.

“I knew that I had to get the ball on net asfast as I could,” Hunter Dominy, who scoredthe goal for the Eagles, said. “I still thought

that the game could go either way. We toldourselves that we were not losing tonight.”

Sweeper Nathan Reynolds said that thedefensive plan was to make sure that every-one on Chazy knew where prolific Willsboroscorer Clay Sherman was at all times.

“We put pressure on him all the time,”Reynolds said. “You have to give credit toWillsboro, they are a great team and we hadto come together as a team and work as hardas we have to get the win.”

“I had faith that we would play a strongdefensive game, but with as much time wasleft and how good Willsboro is, I wasn’t sureif we were safe,” Eagles head coach RobMcAuliffe said. “We tried to get to Shermanearly before he could do anything with pos-session.”

“This was by far the best of the threegames,” Willsboro head coach Andy Leesaid. “It was back and forth, 50-50 paly. Theyhappened to get us today.”

Along with the team play, Lee said that hewas impressed with the play of seniorsweeper Dakota Sayward, who played thegame with a torn MCL and partially tornACL.

“Dakota was out there for everything andhe left his heart out there,” Lee said. “It wastwo great defensive efforts. Chazy is knownfor the offense and scoring, but it is their de-

fense that shines in games like this.”

Girls soccerClass B

Jess Huber scored the lone goal of thegame on a Kallie Villemaire assist in thethird minute of the game as the unbeatenBeekmantown Lady Eagles scored the 1-0win against the Lady Hornets of PlattsburghHigh Nov. 4.

“We have worked well with each otherthroughout the season,” Huber said of herconnection with Villemaire.

“I saw her open in the middle and I knewthat if I could get the ball in that she wouldbe able to finish,” Villemaire said. “We workgood together.”

“Right from the beginning, this team start-ed working hard and we try to concentrateon the basics of soccer,” Eagles head coachErin Norris said. “I always tell them that Iwant a goal in the first two minutes. We havea pair of dynamic scorers up front in Kallieand Jess and they have compatible speeds

and they work well together.”

Class CHaley Brandes opened the scoring in the

17th minute, when she headed a cross fromMackenzie Kemmerer to open the scoring at1-0 as the Lake Placid Blue Bombers scoreda 3-0 win against the Seton Catholic LadyKnights for the Class C girls title.

Ayla Thompson then scored in the 47thminute on an assist from Brook Reid. Reidscored the final goal of the game for the BlueBombers in the 68th minute on a Payton Bar-ney assist.

Liz Leff made two saves in the champi-onship victory for the Blue Bombers (11-4-2),picking up her ninth shutout of the season.

Shannon Olsen made 15 saves in the lossfor the Knights, who ended the 2011 seasonwith a record of 8-10-0.

Class DCaitlyn LaPier and Megan Reynolds each

scored two goals and tallied one assist as theChazy Lady Eagles scored a 5-1 victory overthe Elizabethtown-Lewis Lady Lions fortheir seventh straight Section VII/Class Dgirls title.

“I think that it is just as sweet every time,”LaPier said. “They are great competition anda great program at ELCS. We look forward toplaying them every time.”

“In every game have worked just as hardto get to this goal, and it feels great,”Reynolds said. “The team connected in somany different ways this year and we havea lot of connection.”

“Every year, our mission is to go back intothe state tournament,” Eagles head coachKarin Sherman-Trombley said. “Elizabeth-town always comes at us aggressive andhard and the defense has been remarkable.”
