According to community development di-rector Melissa M. McManus, a project adviso-ry committee which has been meeting sinceJanuary recently approved a concept sketchconsisting of several improvements to theMontgomery Street park. The sketch, drawnup by Elan Planning and Design Inc., Sarato-ga Springs, includes the construction of a for-mal walkway connecting the park from theRouses Point Civic Center on Lake Street tothe village’s waterfront properties alongMontgomery Street.

“The village is looking at doing a lot of siteimprovement, which would include addition-al tree planting and landscaping to enhancethe park setting,” explained McManus. “Thiswill hopefully encourage people to come andsit and enjoy the lake and contemplate the sac-rifices our veterans have made for us over theyears.”

The improvements to Veterans Park willalso include installing a brick “plaza” aroundthe base of the park’s flagpole, which would

CHAMPLAIN — Local zoningregulations require stores tohave handicapped-accessibleparking. Some stores even allotparking spaces for people withchildren. But, reserved parkingspaces for veterans? That is ararity.

On Veterans Day 2008, WillardMartin pulled into the parkinglot of Price Chopper in Cham-plain and found the perfectparking spot.

“We were looking for a park-ing place and somebody said‘Well there’s one down at theend,’ so we went down there andthere was that sign,” Martin ex-plained, who is the quartermas-ter for Veterans of Foreign WarsPost 1418.

The sign Martin was referringto looks similar to a handi-capped-accessible sign except itreads “Veteran’s Parking. Res-

CHAZY — Though pa-trons of Chazy Public Li-brary already know aboutwhat it has to offer, someyounger members of thecommunity were recentlygiven a formal introductionto the library and all its serv-ices.

On June 23, kindergarten-ers from Chazy Central Rur-al School were given a tourof the library by its director,Francie Fairchild. Everyyear, Fairchild invites theschool’s kindergarten class-es as a way of helping thestudents learn more aboutthings like the library’s In-ternet access, numerousbooks, and programs forchildren.

“With summer coming up,it’s very helpful to keep thereading skills there,” saidCCRS kindergarten teacherDanielle Rovers, “and it’s anice resource for parentsthat don’t always want to go

out and buy the new booksfor their kids when they canjust go and borrow from thelibrary.”

Fairchild said she usuallyjust reads a story to the chil-dren and tells them a littlebit about the library, but thisyear, she had some extrahelp.

Retired teachers DianeSabourin and EstherDominy came to the libraryand told stories about bugsand did some arts and craftsprojects related to the theme.

“Kids love bugs; adultsdon’t,” Sabourin explained.“We both tend to work inthemes and it’s that time ofyear. We could have focusedon summer, we just got start-ed on bugs.”

“I think they’re doing asuperb, wonderful job,”Fairchild said of Dominyand Sabourin. “I hope theycome back every year.”

Fairchild also noticedwhile Sabourin and Dominyworked with the children,they introduced various li-

brary terms into the story-time, which will help thechildren in future visits tothe library.

One of the main reasonswhy it was important for thestudents to visit the libraryis because many of them hadnever been there.

“We do try to do that so atleast they have that expo-sure one time and maybespark the interest in the fu-ture,” Rovers explained.

“It’s just to make it a littlemore special and be a placewhere they bring their par-ents to,” said Sabourin.

Sabourin also saw the im-portance for the children tovisit the library, because it isa part of the community.

“I was reading ... aboutfield trips,” she explained.“Schools cutting field tripsand taking advantage ofwhat’s in the community.That’s important because infirst or second grade, theydiscuss the community andwhat’s there and theyshould be learning the re-

sources that are right there.”Rovers said when the stu-

dents returned to the school,they were very excited aboutwhere they had been, and es-pecially about the bags theywere able to take home withthem.

“[Dominy and Sabourin]had put together a little bagand in the bag they had abookmark listing all thetimes of the upcoming sum-mer events. They were veryexcited to have that to takehome.”

According to the National Institutes of Health, goutoccurs when needle-like crystals of uric acid buildup in connective tissue, in the joint space between

two bones, or in both. Most people with gout have too muchuric acid in their blood, a condition called hyperuricemia.Uric acid is a substance that results from the breakdown ofpurines, which are part of all human tissue and are found inmany foods.

Gout frequently first attacks the joints in the big toe. Theaffected joint may become swollen, red or warm. Attacksusually occur at night. To confirm a diagnosis of gout, thedoctor inserts a needle into the inflamed joint and draws asample of synovial fluid, the substance that lubricates ajoint. A laboratory technician places some of the fluid on aslide and looks for uric acid crystals under a microscope. Ifuric acid crystals are found in the fluid surrounding thejoint, the person usually has gout.

Physicians often prescribe high doses of non-steroidalanti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs, or steroids for a sud-den attack of gout. NSAIDs are taken by mouth and corti-costeroids are either taken by mouth or injected into the af-fected joint. Patients often begin to improve within a few

hours of treatment, and theattack usually goes awaycompletely within a week orso.

Researchers have discov-ered some of the risk factorsfor gout. Some people withgout have a family history ofthe disease. In addition to in-herited traits, diet, weight,and alcohol play a role in thedevelopment of gout. Thedisease is more common inmen.

Different types of arthritishave different symptoms. Ingeneral, people with most forms of arthritis have pain andstiffness in their joints.

Keeping computer software updated is importantmaintenance for both operation and security inter-ests. Updates are needed for the operating system,

applications and utility programs such as the antivirus/an-tispyware solutions. When it comes to the operating systemI ask “what’s your spack?”

Spack is a geek term meaning “service pack” which is con-sidered to be a major software update. Operating systemsare routinely updated through a hotfix or security updatebut Spacks are a culmination of many minor changes that,taken all together, are considered major. Currently WindowsXP is at SP3 while Vista is at SP2.

One method to see the level is to right-click on “My Com-puter” (“Computer” in Vista) and select “properties” fromthe menu. On XP, the System Properties dialog box appearswith the desired info located on the General tab. The info in-cludes the operating system version, OS type (32 or 64-bit)and current Service Pack level. On Vista, the info is nottabbed as it is with XP but it does normally appear on theinitial page.

Typically the Windows update mechanism will install Ser-vice Packs automatically. Another way is to do a manual in-stallation, which includes downloading the file (makingsure the Spack matches the operating system as 32 or 64-bit)and then running it. Know that some Service Packs require

other Service Packs beforethey can be installed. If I re-member correctly WindowsVista SP2 requires the PC toalready have SP1 before in-stalling SP2 so a little home-work goes a long way towardsuccess.

Spacks come as .exe fileswhich are self extracting ex-ecutables. Close and saveany work in progress andbackup everything impor-tant, then double-click thedownloaded file to start theprocedure. When complete,the downloaded .exe file may be deleted. Visit microsoft.comfor more information.

Let’s get to the of the matter... Quality Fencing!

It’s no secret that I love $1sales at the grocery store.They’re one of the easiest

ways to get items for free – andwho doesn’t like getting some-thing for free?

For example, when a bag offrozen vegetables is on sale for $1and I use a $1 coupon, the coupon’svalue essentially “pays” for thevegetables – they’re free.

But what if the frozen vegetablehappens to be on sale for 75 centsand you use a $1 coupon? This is anexample of what couponers calloverage – and it’s one of my fa-vorite aspects of couponing. Over-age occurs when the value of yourcoupon exceeds the cost of the item

you’re buying.If I use a $1 coupon on the 75-

cent vegetables, what happens tothat extra 25 cents? At checkout,most stores will apply the extraquarter to the rest of the items Ipurchase that day. So, if during thesame shopping trip I also buy somebakery rolls for $1.25, the extraquarter of coupon overage is auto-matically applied to the rest of mytotal. In this example, after givingthe cashier my $1 vegetablescoupon I would owe just $1 in cashfor the rolls.

Overage can play a big role in re-ducing your total grocery bill. If Ihave many items in the same trans-action, each with a coupon that ex-

ceeds the value of what I’m buying,I can gain several dollars of over-age. That overage can be used tobuy anything: fruit, vegetables,dairy or whatever I’d like. With afamily of five, I can always findplenty of other items that myhousehold needs.

However, it’s important to re-member that no store is going togive a shopper cash back for over-age. I can’t walk into my local gro-cery store with that $1 coupon, buythe 75-cent vegetables and then askfor a quarter in change. It just does-n’t work that way. But because I’malso buying other items during thesame trip, coupon overage helpssave money on everything else I

take home.When I explain overage in my

coupon classes I’m sometimesasked if this is “ripping off thestore.” The answer is, No! Remem-ber, the manufacturer that issuedmy $1 vegetables coupon will re-imburse the store not only $1 forthe full value of my coupon butalso an additional 8 to 12 cents percoupon. (Read the fine print onyour coupon and you’ll find thisspelled out.) So, think of yourcoupons as if they were cash. If Ihand the cashier a $1 bill to pay formy 75-cent vegetables and $1.25rolls, the extra 25 cents over thecost of the vegetables isn’t lost – itcomes off the price of the rolls.

Most stores automatically allowoverage. A few reserve the right to“adjust down” the value of yourcoupon to the point that the item isfree, but the shopper does not re-ceive the overage. To determinehow your store handles couponoverages, ask your store for a copyof its coupon policy.

More Coupon Queen — Use coupons and start getting paid to shop

It’s time to answer some questions fromreaders like you who are learning to Su-per-Coupon:

Dear Jill,I never knew that I could stack a store

coupon and a manufacturer coupon that Iclipped from the newspaper. After picking upthis tip I learned from you, I am already sav-ing a lot! Here’s my question. One local gro-cery store I like publishes its store coupons inthe weekly flyer. Another store puts them onits Web site, which somehow transfers themto your store card. How does this work? Is itworth trying?

Dear Shopper,Many grocery stores offer store coupons

that can be electronically loaded to yourstore’s shopper loyalty card. Here’s how itworks.

If your store offers electronic coupons, vis-it the store’s Web site and look for the couponarea. You’ll be prompted to input the numberof your shopper loyalty card. If it’s your firsttime visiting the site, you may also be askedto register for a free account. Once you signin, a list of current coupons will appear.

At some grocery chains, the coupons thatappear on your screen are tailored to you,

based on your purchase history collectedthrough use of your loyalty card. If you’vepurchased diapers in the past you might re-ceive discounts on other baby items. If you’vepurchased pet food you may see coupons forpet treats and supplies. You also may receivediscounts for a brand thatcompetes directly with aproduct that you purchaseregularly. At other grocerychains, all Web site visitorsare offered the same selec-tion of electronic coupons.

Regardless of how a storedetermines the assortmentof coupons available toyou, loading them ontoyour shopper ’s card isquite simple. Typically, thestore’s Web site either loadsall of the available couponsto your card automaticallyor it will prompt you toclick the specific offers you’d like to add.Once they’re added, you’re ready to shop!You don’t even need to print the page fromthe Web site; the discounts will register auto-matically when your card is scanned at theregister.

Ready for the best part of electroniccoupons? Because they’re tied to your shop-

per ’s card they function as store coupons, soyou can “stack” manufacturer coupons on topof them for even bigger savings. If you havea $1 electronic coupon for apple juice and adda manufacturer ’s 50-cent coupon you’ll savea total of $1.50.

Dear Jill,Do you ever have problems

with cashiers? I went to thestore yesterday with somecoupons I printed from the In-ternet and the cashier told methey didn’t take Internetcoupons. But I printed thecoupons right from the store’sown Web site. Is there anythingI can do?

Dear Shopper,I’ve heard this question from

other shoppers. I, too, havegone to the store with a fistful

of Internet coupons, ready to slash my gro-cery bill dramatically, only to hear “We don’ttake Internet coupons.” This can be frustrat-ing to a shopper who knows that the storehas always taken them in the past and, asyou said, the store offers the printablecoupons on its own Web site.

So what’s a shopper to do? The answer can

be found in the store’s own coupon policy.Many stores publish their coupon policies on-line so that shoppers can read them beforecoming to the store. If your store doesn’t haveits policy online e-mail them and ask for acopy or ask for one at the customer servicecounter when you visit the store.

Coupon policies are a shopper ’s bestfriend. They outline almost everything youcould ever want to know about coupons.Does the store double coupons? Does it ac-cept Internet coupons? Are there limits onhow many coupons a shopper can use?Armed with these answers, you’ll be betterprepared to shop at your favorite store. Inmany cases, you’ll also learn what I suspectis true in your case – that the store does ac-cept Internet coupons (especially if the storeoffers them on its own site!) It appears thatyour cashier was simply confused about thestore’s policy.

Reader mail: How to handle e-coupons and confused cashiers

Queen By Jill Cataldo

served for those who served.”“I’ve never seen anything like that,

anywhere,” Martin said.Though the sign has been there for

more than six months, Martin ap-proached Denton Publications afternot seeing any recognition of the des-ignations in the media.

“I’ve been looking for some kind ofacknowledgement,” Martin said. “Tomake it known.”

But, where did the sign come from?“I came in one day and it was there.

It was a pleasant surprise,” said Cham-plain Price Chopper store managerJames Black, who assumed the corpo-rate stores of Price Chopper chose to

put it there.However, it was the store’s landlord

Ernest Pomerleau of Pomerleau RealEstate in Burlington, Vt., who had theparking spaces created.

“We own a lot of shopping centersaround [Upstate] New York and Ver-mont,” Pomerleau explained. “We do alot of work with the military here.”

Pomerleau said his business oftensupports Christmas parties and otherevents for families of the military, es-pecially for those who have membersserving overseas.

“Some time last year, [the NationalGuard] came to us and said ‘We’re hav-ing this idea; another way to support

or honor our troops ... Would you con-sider in your parking lots, putting up alittle sign?’”

After agreeing to the idea, Pomer-leau secured parking spaces at thestores he owns as a “nice tribute to peo-ple who have served all the majorwars.”

“I’ve been called ‘child killer,’ ‘mur-derer ’ and what have you,” said Mar-tin. “But, you see something like thatand it makes you feel a little better.”

“There’s a lot of young people fromaround here that are overseas and theycome back ... they like to hear they’rebeing appreciated,” he added.

ParkingFrom page 1

also be replaced, and additional parking to the south end ofthe parcel.

Further north on Montgomery Street, enhancements to aformer beach area owned by the village would also be made,including establishing a kayak launching site. Permit appli-cations have been filed with the state to create additionalparking there for those wishing to access the park and thewaterfront area, said McManus.

“That site would be connected to Veterans Park and theshoreline walkway with ornamental street lighting,” saidMcManus. “It would continue the existing street lighting wehave up and down Montgomery Street by the pier and alongto Route 2.”

The cost of the project is expected be covered by a $130,000grant the village received from the Department of State Di-vision of Coastal Resources, said McManus. Village Depart-ment of Public Works crews will perform as much of thework as possible through in-kind services, as a way of meet-ing matching funds requirements of the grant, said Mc-Manus.

The concept sketch for Veterans Park, which was most re-cently approved by the village’s board of trustees and DPW,has now been forwarded on to the Department of State forapproval, said McManus. The village will need the state’sapproval before any work can begin. It’s most likely, how-ever, work won’t begin until later this year, with the major-ity of work to be completed in the spring, she said.

Portions of the project not handled by the DPW will needto be put out for bid, which is a process that would likelytake place over the winter, McManus added.

Mayor George A. Rivers said the hard work of the projectadvisory committee will make all the difference when theproject is complete.

“The work they’ve done is very important,” said Rivers.“This will be a project that will complete our waterfront de-velopment along Montgomery Street straight through toRoute 2. This will create a nice area for people to enjoy LakeChamplain and maybe have a picnic if they want whilethey’re on the waterfront. I think this is going to be a verynice project for everyone to enjoy.”

U.S. and Canadian citizens wanting to cross the border tocarry a passport or other form of single-document proof ofcitizenship and identity as of June 1.

Despite the new regulations, Corsaro said there has beenno noticeable effect on the amount of traffic or length of waittimes at the border.

“We really have nothing to indicate that traffic is up ordown because of WHTI,” said Corsaro.

That may be due, in part, to the Customs and Border Pro-tection’s more lenient than anticipated enforcement of theregulations, still allowing motorists to cross without whatCorsaro referred to as “a WHTI-compliant document.”

Documents suitable for U.S. citizens for border crossinginclude a U.S. Passport, U.S. Passport Card, New York StateEnhanced Driver License and NEXUS card. Canadian citi-zens are required to have a Canadian passport, Quebec En-hanced Driver License or NEXUS card.

“We’re still in the informed compliance stage,” explainedCorsaro, stating motorists would be expected to complyonce informed when crossing the border without properWHTI-compliant documentation. “We will not refuse a citi-zen entry into the United States if their only violation is theydon’t have a WHTI-compliant document. We’ll continue toeducate them.”

There is no definitive timeframe as to when Customs andBorder Protection, which is overseen by the Department ofHomeland Security, will make having WHTI-compliant doc-

umentation mandatory, said Corsaro.“We’re waiting for further guidance from the [Department

of Homeland Security], but we’ll be in the informed com-pliance stage until further direction,” he said.

Corsaro also noted children younger than 16 years old arestill able to travel across both sides of the border with a validbirth certificate when traveling with their family. Childrenages 16-19 traveling with organizations such as schoolgroups are also able to present only a valid birth certificatewhen crossing, he added.

According to Clinton County Clerk John H. Zurlo, the av-erage wait time for a passport or passport card once an ap-plication has been filed is about four to six weeks. Theamount of time it takes to receive an enhanced driver licenseis about 10 days.

The Clinton County Clerk’s office has processed morethan 3,000 applications for enhanced driver licenses, com-monly referred to as EDLs, since being first made availablelast September.

For more information regarding enhanced driver licensesor other documentation available for crossing the border,contact the Clinton County Clerk’s office at 565-4700 or vis-it www.nydmv.state.ny.us/edl.htm.

The Customs and Border Protection Web site,www.cbp.gov, and WHTI Web site, www.getyouhome.gov,also have information about cross-border travel require-ments and how to obtain necessary documentation.

himself to begin one at his church.“Our youth group went out, the Boy Scouts came and they

started collecting food on a very small scale,” explainedGillette. “Then, as the program continued to grow, I recog-nized I couldn’t do it myself and Wendell and Diane[Brooks] took over. They’re the ones that keep the programmoving and running smoothly.”

The Brookses began volunteering with the Mooers FoodPantry in 2002, following retirement and their move fromEllenburg to Mooers in 2000.

“We had a lot of time on our hands,” explained DianeBrooks.

She saw the importance of helping others including chil-dren and seniors citizens who often come to the food pantry.

“We had a 92-year-old lady come in here last year and shesaid, ‘I’ve lived in the same home all my life and I’ve nev-er had to ask for help,’” she recalled. “She said, ‘I either hadto have money for food or leave my home,’ and she apolo-gized and I said, ‘Lady, just come with me.’ That’s whatwe’re here for.”

The Mooers Food Pantry has grown to help people inRouses Point, Champlain, Chazy, West Chazy, Altona, El-lenburg, Mooers, and Mooers Forks, seeing 16-17 familiesper week. It is a project of the community, said Gillette, notjust the church.

In order to receive food from the food pantry, familieshave to register, and are only allowed to come once everyother month. They must also bring proof of residency, whichcan be in the form of a bill, for example.

The food handed out to needy families comes from thehelp of the Regional Food Bank in Latham, which the Moo-ers Food Pantry became a part of a year ago.

“It’s a lot of paperwork and two or three times we triedand gave up,” Diane Brooks explained of joining the Re-gional Food Bank.

However, with the help of her daughter-in-law, JuanitaBrooks, who heads another food shelf in New York, theyeventually became certified.

“Even though they have a lot of rules and regulations wehave to follow ... the good points outweigh the bad,” shesaid. “We couldn’t keep going on donations.”

The Mooers Food Pantry receives $3,200 every year ingrant money from the Regional Food Bank, to help purchasefood, which can come from salvage, donation, co-op, or theU.S. Department of Agriculture.

However, despite help from the food bank, the MooersFood Pantry can always receive help from the community.

“I can’t think of anything that we’re oversupplied in,” Di-ane Brooks said.

If interested in donating food or money to the food pantry,contributions may be sent to P.O. Box 221, Mooers N.Y.12958, in care of Pastor John Gillette, Food Shelf.

FoodFrom page 1

The cost of the 41items in May camein at $95.16, down

from $96.22 in April, but upfrom last May’s cost of$91.60.

Prices decreased on pro-duce, meats, miscellaneous,and dairy. Prices increasedslightly on frozen foods anddrinks and remained virtual-ly unchanged on cannedgoods and breads, cerealsand grains. For the year,prices were up in nearly allcategories with the exception of dairy, which continued todecline.

Produce saw the biggest decrease at seven percent for themonth, with potatoes showing the biggest monthly declineof 15 percent. Carrots and onions were slightly down fromlast year ’s prices.

In the frozen food department, haddock soared to $7.49 apound and all prices were up for the year.

Canned goods were only up slightly from last month butwere up 15 percent from last year ’s prices, lead by increas-es in the price of Star Kist chunk light tuna and Green Giantpeas.

Meat was the only category down overall for the year, withpork chops showing the biggest decline at 24 percent.Whole frying chickens, however, were up 12 percent.

Breads, cereals and grains were virtually unchanged forboth the month and year, with decreases in bread prices bal-anced by increases in Kelloggs Corn Flakes and River rice.

The miscellaneous items of Oreo cookies and vegetable oilwere 23 percent more expensive this month than May, 2008.

As has been reported in the news, dairy prices continue tofall, with decreases in all prices in this category. This de-crease is a continuing concern for local dairy farmers.

Seasonal reminderAsparagus and rhubarb are ripening in local gardens.

Strawberry picking has begun. The citrus season is over, butlemons and limes are still in season. Bing cherries, mangoesand pineapple are in season, but expensive!

The Market Basket is a monthly report based on a survey of 41food items commonly purchased by consumers. The SUNY Platts-burgh Office of Institutional Research collects data for the reportfrom four major supermarkets in the Plattsburgh area. The reportis then compiled as a community service sponsored by the Tech-nical Assistance Center and the SUNY Plattsburgh Office of In-stitutional Advancement.

Market basket is downWhile perennials come and go all summer long a

few make a big show and need a little attentionafter blooming to keep their good looks.

Lupines do well in our cooler climate but are absolutemagnets for aphids. The best way to deal with them is to cutthe entire flower stalk to the ground as soon as the flowersfade. New, attractive leaves will quickly regrow and you’llbe able to enjoy the showy leaves all summer.

The trick to making peonies look their best is to prunethem back pretty hard after flowering. It’s obvious where theflowers were, huge seed heads are left behind. But ratherthan just cutting off the seed pods, use a pair of hand clip-pers to cut each flowering branch back by about half. Bymaking the cut well into the leaf canopy the cut is hiddenand the result is a well shaped shrub with no blunt, stubbybranches.

Baptisia or false indigo is another shrub-like perennialthat takes up even more space than my peonies. Both bap-tisia and peonies die to the ground over the winter so theydon’t have woody stems like true shrub, but they take up somuch space on their own they’re considered shrub-like inform. This is fine as long as you give them enough room

Both baptisia and peonies are long-lived and unlike mostperennials they don’t need or like to be divided. Choose thesite carefully for either of these plants then sit back andwatch the show.

Watch out for wild parsnipWild parsnip is just beginning to bloom along roadsides

this week so here’s my annual warning don’t touch this

plant! It causes huge, wateryblisters on your skin that canleave scars that last for years.It’s not quite as itchy as poi-son ivy but makes its victimsjust as miserable.

Be on the lookout; it’squite easy to see from yourcar along roadsides rightnow. It has yellow-green flat-topped flowers on uprightplants about 30-36 inchestall. It reminds me of a yel-lowish Queen Anne’s lace al-though up close the leavesare quite different.

Your skin needs to come into contact with the leaves andthen be exposed to sunlight for the reaction to occur. Be es-pecially careful when weed-whacking or using a push-mow-er. Wear long pants and long sleeves when working near thisplant. Regular mowing will keep it in check but it reproducesby seed so it will keep coming back.

CHAZY — Though one ofthe smallest schools in theregion with only 38 graduat-ing seniors, Chazy CentralRural School proved theycan still be just as successful,receiving more nearly$448,000 in scholarships.

CCRS’s class of 2009 heldtheir commencement cere-monies June 26 where stu-dents took their final walkthrough the school’s audito-rium.

“I can physically feel thetension here tonight — an in-ternal struggle within usall,” said senior addressspeaker Christopher Brew-ster, “a desire to springthrough that door into thewide open and waitingworld pitted against a wantto stay here in the safety andcomfort of our closestfriends. “It’s as if we allknow there lies a city of goldbeyond the next rise, wait-ing for us, and yet we areafraid to leave the safety ofour village of clay.”

Brewster related aftergrowing up together, “it will

be hard to leave these con-nections, but we have to pic-ture in our mind that city ofgold lying over the next risein the land.”

“How much identity isthere before seconds lendthemselves to minutes tohours to days to weeks, tofortnights to months to yearsto decades to centuries?How is it unique personsemerge from the masses —the seas of humanity,” askedBrewster.

He also emphasized theymust all learn to become in-dividuals while staying awhole.

“We have to capture in ourhearts what we are feelingright now, at this instant. Wehave to maintain an ethos ofhope and youth,” said Brew-ster. “We are rising up fromone stage and passing in-stantly into another. Tenhappy miles down in lifeand 10,000 glorious milesleft to go.”

The ceremony ended withthe presentation of theirdiplomas by Kevin Mulli-gan, principal of Chazy, thesinging of the “Alma Mater”and “The Gold and White,”the class song.

Chazy graduates ready to experience the world

PLATTSBURGH — The Adiron-dack Young Professionals are invit-ing members of the business com-munity to learn more about theirorganization and, more important-ly, to join.

The nonprofitcivic organizationknown as ADKYPhosted an officialmembership driveat the Naked TurtleJune 25, with aturnout that came asa pleasant surpriseto organizers whowere anxious tospread the wordabout the group.

Michael S. Cash-man, president of the ADKYPboard of directors, said he consid-ered the event a celebration of ac-complishments of the past but,even more, “the launch for biggerand better things to come.” Thepoint of offering formal member-ships for the organization, saidCashman, was to set the stage forthat launch and further legitimizethe efforts of the group’s active —yet until now, informal — mem-bers.

“The membership’s voice andparticipation is important in fur-ther developing ADKYP into a re-gional group that helps to articu-late our interests and needs asyoung professionals in the NorthCountry and Adirondacks,” saidCashman. “I am very proud of AD-

KYP’s accomplishments, but Iknow we are poised for greaterthings to come with more involve-ment.”

Keri Mack, ADKYP board of di-rectors secretary and organizer ofthe membership drive, said in-volvement appears to already be

on the rise, withan overwhelmingnumber of peoplejoining the AD-KYP ranks.

“I’m reallypleased by theamount of sup-port we receivedfor the event. Weeasily had morethan 100 peoplein attendance andas many as 60people register

for memberships,” said Mack.Those signing up were able to

learn more about the organiza-tion’s history, which dates back to2007. ADKYP, Cashman explained,was the result of collaborationsmade during the North CountryRegional Workforce InvestmentBoard’s North Country LeadershipProgram. That program consistedof a core group of people whohelped make the organizationwhat it is today, he said.

John M. VanNatten, chairman ofthe Workforce Investment Board,credited the ADKYP board of di-rectors for their ambition in bring-ing what was once an informal or-ganization to a 501(c)(3) nonprofitorganization with a clear missionof creating networking opportuni-

ties for young professionals.“This is an important organiza-

tion for growth and developmenteconomically in the North Coun-try,” said VanNatten. “It’s truly im-portant to recruit and retain youngprofessionals in this community.”

“We support it 100 percent,” headded.

Garry F. Douglas, president ofthe Plattsburgh-North CountryChamber of Commerce, also ap-plauded the young professionalsfor taking an interest in businessand community affairs to bringabout positive change to the area.

“[ADKYP] is an important new

component of business and eco-nomic development in the region,”said Douglas. “We appreciate whatyou’re doing. What you’re doing isimportant and it’s going to be animportant part of our endeavorsand strategies going forward.”

However, it will take the work ofmany to continue to expand AD-KYP, said Cashman, and he’s look-ing to the people of the communi-ty to help make that happen.

“Not only do we hope you willjoin us, but we hope you will reachout to your coworkers, friends,family and neighbors to encouragetheir involvement,” said Cashman.

Those who weren’t able to attendthe membership event, are stillable to get in on the ground floor,added Mack. Individual, familyand business memberships areavailable at various rates, eachpaired with discount cards thatgive members deals at area busi-nesses.

“There is still a chance to becomeone of the founding members of agroup we consider to be unlike anyother in the area,” said Mack.

For more information, call 335-8125 or send an e-mail to [email protected].

ADKYP membership drive deemed success, organizers say

The Adirondack Young Professionals attracted more than 60 formal members to their organization following a membershipdrive at the Naked Turtle in Plattsburgh June 25.

PLATTSBURGH — Thecity of Plattsburgh willamong cities across the na-tion protesting “fiscal irre-sponsibility” in Washington,D.C., and Albany this Fourthof July.

A “Tea Party” will be heldat this Saturday, July 4, atTrinity Park on City HallPlace beginning at 10 a.m.The event is mirrored afterthe infamous Boston Tea Par-ty held in December 1773 inwhich colonists protestedtaxes of the British govern-ment.

According to co-organiz-ers of the event, JonathanNelson and Oliver M. Barie,this will mark Plattsburgh’ssecond protest by local resi-dents in three months.April’s Tea Party attractednearly 100 protestors, a num-ber which Nelson and Barieexpect to double this Satur-day.

“We cannot just sit here

and watch as our govern-ment creates massive debtfor generations to come,”said Nelson.

“Our government thinks itcan spend its way out ofdebt,” added Barie. “I maybe only 19, but even I knowthat the answer to massivedebt is not more of thesame.”

The program will includean open microphone sessionwith a maximum of two min-

utes for any person wishingto speak in support of fiscalresponsibility. The protestwill last approximately onehour and will conclude witha tribute to the original Inde-pendence Day.

Attendees are encouragedto bring flags and homemadesigns. Those wishing to as-sist or make donations tocover expenses are asked tocontact Barie at 420-2486 orNelson at 569-7574.

Summer is a time for swimming, boating and enjoying the heat.

It is important to follow some simple safety rules to ensure everyone has a safe and happy summer

Sun Safety - Be sure kids are properly protected from the sun. Items such as sunblock, hats and sunglasses can help protect the skin. It is good to limit exposure to the sun during the middle of the day. Also, be sure kids drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration. Water Safety - Whether at the pool or the beach. It is important to follow some basic water safety rules. Kids should always swim with a partner, and have an adult nearby. Remind your children to walk (not run) around the pool as the cement may be slippery. Also, an adult should check to make sure the water is deep enough before kids are allowed to dive. There are probably rules posted at public pools. It is a good idea to go over these. Families can work together to create and post rules at their home pool. Bike, Roller Blade, & Scooter Safety - Kids should always wear a helmet. This is a law in many areas. Check with your local police department for specific laws in your community. Kneepads and elbow pads are also useful for softening the blow in case of falls. Camping Safety - Campfires are great, but it is important to know the safety procedures before starting a fire. An adult should always start the campfire and be present while it is lit. A lot of plan - ning goes into a safe camp site. Families should have a plan of what to do if the get separated.

Family Talk About Drinking

At Anheuser-Busch, we believe the sooner parents teach their kids the responsibilities of drinking, the more likely it is the kids will decide not to drink before they’re of age - and to drink responsibly, if they choose to drink, when they become adults.

With this in mind, we’ve developed “Family Talk About Drinking,” a series of informative guides written with the help of experts in family counseling and alcohol education. Call for your copies today, because it’s never too soon to start talking to your kids about drinking.

PLATTSBURGH — Forty-six stu-dents from Seton Catholic Centralhave now begun their journey intothe real world, experiencing life af-ter high school.

The school hosted its 20th annu-al commencement exercises at theState University of New York atPlattsburgh Hawkins Hall June 20,as graduation speakers reminiscedabout time spent at the parochialschool and looked toward the fu-ture.

Valedictorian Genna M. Hartungreflected on her high school careeras a time when memories weremade. Each laugh, each tear, eachmistake and each success made thestudents who they are today, saidHartung, with each moment intheir lives being just as importantas the other.

“It is also within minutes andseconds that a life can change: ababy is born, a loved one dies, or agraduation ceremony com-mences,” said Hartung. “It is in-teresting how life can be so definedby such a minute passage of time.”

Statistically, the passing mo-ments are insignificant, Hartungsaid.

“In the lifetime ofthe average Ameri-can, we will experi-ence over 2 billionseconds,” she said.“In reality, it iswithin these briefbut numerousmemories that weare truly affected,for all these mo-ments combinedare what createlasting memoriesand impressionsthat we are sure tonever forget.”

During her ad-dress, salutatorianAndrea M. May-nard said she willalso miss her fellowstudents, which shelikened to the in-gredients of arecipe for the idealclass.

“Our class, the dough that wehave created, is a perfect mixtureof every parent and every teacher;taking their lessons, their guid-ance, their support,” said May-nard. “When we started our jour-ney, we let the dough set, the chem-ical reactions begin, the friend-

ships to form, the family to devel-op. And, when the time is wasright, we put it in the oven to let itbake.”

Graduation was what Maynardconsidered the completion of thatbaking, creating a metaphoricalloaf “whose unique recipe will

never again be recreated.”The challenge which liesbefore Maynard and herfellow students, she said,is to begin a new recipefor success in life afterhigh school.

“As we begin, I chal-lenge you, my classmates, to constantlystrive to improve yourown recipe, to set goalsfor yourself, and toachieve great things,” shesaid. “I ask that you takethe skills; the love, thefaith, and the creativitythat we have learned hereand use them to never set-tle for second best.”

The school’s vice prin-cipal and athletic directorGary R. Ryan, who servedas featured speaker forthe event, drew from his36 years experience as aneducator, administrator

and coach to give the graduates theadvice of avoiding being one thingin life — average.

“Average is the best of the worst,worst of the best,” said Ryan. “Doyou want to be average? Do youwant to be the worst of best? Doyou want to be best of the worst? I

don’t think so, because I’ve dealtwith many of you. You’re not aver-age.”

“You have been given the oppor-tunity to be above average,” Ryancontinued, “and you have that op-portunity in front of you for therest of your life.”

Mark L. Barie, president of theschool’s education council, recog-nized that same quality in thegraduates which he said helped thegraduates reach one of the first ofmany milestones in their lives.

“Together, all of you representthe long and illustrious legacy ofSeton Catholic Central,” saidBarie. “And, should there come aday, weeks, months and even yearsfrom now, you are asked ‘Wheredid you go to school?’ I hope andpray that you will say, ‘I am a grad-uate of Seton Catholic Central, andthere is no finer school in all of theNorth Country.’”

The school’s principal, the Rev.Msgr. Robert Aucoin, also com-mended the friends and family ofthe graduates in attendance forhelping the students get to theirspecial day.

“We recognize each of you hasplayed a special role in the lives ofour graduates,” Aucoin said. “Youare therefore special to all of us.”

PLATTSBURGH — Choices andadventures are what the salutatori-an and valedictorian of Northeast-ern Clinton Central School focusedon when speaking to their 130classmates during the school’scommencement ceremonies June25.

The ceremony was held at theState University of New York atPlattsburgh Field House where thestudents walked in, smiling proud-ly, and listened to salutatorian Re-bekah Grim as she helped them tounderstand the phrase “Life isabout choices.”

“How our lives play out dependson the choices we make along theway,” Grim said. “When we areyoung, the choices are simple andfew, yet we make them each day. Aswe get older, we are faced withmore difficult choices — we chooseour friends, our goals for the fu-ture, and how we plan to obtainthem.”

Grim recognized the choices sheand her classmates made grewwith them until they became highschool seniors.

“This year was undoubtedlyfilled with the biggest decisions wehave ever had to make,” she said.“We chose whether or not to attendcollege, which colleges to apply to,which one to enroll in, and what wewill study while we are there.”

In the end, Grim felt her mostvaluable lesson learned at NCCSwas “the power of choices.”

“After we leave here tonight, Ihope everyone in this room will usethat power wisely and continue tochoose not only what is best forthemselves, but what is best forthose that surround them,” shesaid.

“Graduation is a new beginning,the start of our new life,” said vale-dictorian Sylvia Horne. “Soon, wewill be off on our own, away fromour parents in completely new sur-roundings. However, we must notmake a habit of overlooking the ex-perience of the last four years.”

Horne compared high school toan adventure, including the upsand downs — mountains and val-leys.

“At times, high school was one ofthe most grueling, burdening expe-riences of our lives,” she said.

However, Horne felt if her class-mates could forget “the up hills

and think back upon the downhills,” they could leave graduationwith “completely different memo-ries of where we spent some of themost altering times of our exis-tence.”

Horne also recognized in anyjourney there are guides and men-tors to lead the way, of which shenoted teachers and parents.

“Without our teachers, most ofthe knowledge we have acquiredwould not exist,” Horne said.

“Lastly,” she added, “I wouldlike to acknowledge those whowere our greatest mentors throughthis long yet fulfilling adventure —our parents.”

Realizing graduation is a mo-ment many parents are “apprehen-sive of,” Horne knew they under-stood “everything they have donehas been for this day.”

“Our parents know that all of thelove and guidance that they havegiven us will prepare us for what-ever obstacles we must face in thepath of life,” she said.

At the end of her speech, Hornequoted Don Williams Jr. stating,“‘The road of life twists and turnsand no two directions are ever thesame. Yet our lessons come fromthe journey, not the destination.’”

NCCS hands out 130 diplomas to graduating seniors

MORRISONVILLE — New York State Po-lice have made two arrests in connectionwith a rash of brush fires in the Mor-risonville area.

Chad R. Smith, 17, and a 15-year-old male,whose name was not released due to his age,were arrested June 28 each on counts of fifth-degree arson. The arrests occurred after anextensive investigation into more than 20brush fires which occurred within the Mor-risonville Fire District since April.

Eric R. Day, director of the Clinton Coun-ty Office of Emergency Services, said the ar-rests, which were made following an inter-

view of the subjects by state police, come asa relief to local fire departments.

“Morrisonville and other fire departmentshave been kept pretty busy with these fires,so it’s good to finally have a cause in hand,”said Day. “Arson is a tough crime to solve,so it’s good to finally have an answer.”

The first reported suspicious fire occurredApril 13, when brush was set on fire near atrail leading into the woods at MacombReservation State Park, off Norrisville Road.Subsequent suspicious fires were set in theweeks that followed, in rural locations suchas Kent Falls and Turner roads in the townof Schuyler Falls as well as Military Turn-pike and Banker, Bullis, Brown, Irish Settle-ment and Rand Hill roads in the town of

Plattsburgh. Other fires occurred closer tothe Morrisonville Volunteer Fire Depart-ment within the hamlet of Morrisonville offMason, River and Ladue streets.

One of the largest fires was one that oc-curred May 25 in an approximately two-milearea behind the Clinton County Fair-grounds.

However, through the cooperation of lawenforcement, fire and emergency manage-ment agencies, Day said he is glad to see thecase brought to what he believes will be anend.

“I am happy no one, including either ofthe two young men, or any of the fire serv-ice first responders were injured or killed asa result of these fires,” Day further stated in

a press release.“I, as Eric, am glad to see hopefully some

closure to the fires,” said Morrisonville Vol-unteer Fire Department Chief Francis E.Brousseau. “This has been very taxing on allof us who have had to deal with these un-fortunate circumstances. I would like to saythanks to all of the outside agencies and de-partments who have worked really hard infighting the fires and also investigatingthem.”

Smith was issued an appearance ticket forTown of Schuyler Falls Court for Thursday,July 2. The 15-year-old male was issued anappearance ticket for Clinton County Fami-ly Court and released to the custody of hismother.

PLATTSBURGH — The new regional 2-1-1 telephone system is now on-line after near-ly three years of planning and development.

During a press conference held June 30,John C. Bernardi, executive director of theUnited Way of Clinton and Essex Counties,stated the system is now available for use inClinton, Essex and Franklin counties.

The system operates simi-lar to the 9-1-1 emergencyand 4-1-1 information sys-tems, said Bernardi, allow-ing callers to dial — at nocost — a three-digit numberto be connected with healthand human serviceproviders in the tri-countyarea. The service, which isaccessible by dialing 2-1-1from a cellular or landlinephone, will connect callerswith a central call centerwhere an operator is avail-able from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days aweek. The operator is then able to refer thecaller to services such as childcare, mentalhealth professionals, food pantries and gov-ernment assistance programs.

During off hours, a recording will greetcallers with directions to call back duringregular business hours.

“The service is really there to providecallers with the information that they needto access services that are available in our re-gion and close to their home,” explainedBernardi, who served as chairman of a steer-ing committee established by the UnitedWay for the system’s development.

When the committee first began examin-ing how the system would be established,various models and prototypes of programswere considered. The committee ultimatelydecided to contract with an existing call cen-

ter in the Hudson Valley region to developand operate the service. The annual operat-ing cost of the system is approximately$85,000 — a fraction of the estimated$350,000-$500,000 cost the committee foundit would take to establish and operate a newcall center here.

The cost of planning and developing thesystem was funded by a combination of lo-cal in-kind resources and through 2-1-1 NewYork, the organization which facilitates theimplementation of 2-1-1 systems. The over-

all cost to operate the systemis being funded through acombination of public-pri-vate partnerships such asthe United Way, major giftsand endowments and statefunding.

Clinton County LegislatorSara E. Rowden, D-Area 4,who also served on the steer-ing committee, said she feelsthe system will provideservices in a professional,comprehensive format of the

emergency 9-1-1 system.“When you need services and you don’t

know where to go, sometimes the emotion-al part of that makes it very hard to call theright place,” said Rowden. “This is a muchmore efficient way, more cost effective wayto make sure people get the right services.”

“We believe this will be an extremelyvaluable service for residents throughoutthe region,” added Bernardi, “not only forthe day-to-day health and human serviceneeds, but also in times of disaster whencommunication and information becomeseven that much more critical.”

In addition to the three-digit phone num-ber, a toll-free number has been establishedin the unlikely event service through 2-1-1is unavailable. That number is 1-888-774-0289.

Tri-county 2-1-1 system service now available

Carter, director of the Clinton County Office for the Aging,seen here, among others.

This week’s theme: “Unknown Endings”

Solution to last week’s puzzleSolution to last week’s puzzle


I’ve had several peopleask me if I knew any-thing about the purple

triangles that resemble box-kites which have been turn-ing up in trees along Adiron-dack roadsides.

I inquired at the DEC andwas told the devices are be-ing used to trap and monitorthe spread of a rather nastyinvasive beetle called theEmerald Ash Borer.

Originally discovered insoutheastern Michigan in2002, the beetle has slowly migrated east and was just re-cently discovered in the southern part of New York State.

That’s bad news for the more than 900 million ash trees inthe state — a number that makes up about seven percent ofall the trees here.

As its name implies, the Emerald Ash Borer gnaws its wayinto the trunk of a tree. Damage is done by the larvae, whichfeed in tunnels called galleries just below the bark.

The serpentine galleries disrupt water and nutrient trans-port, causing branches, and eventually the entire tree, to die.

In the past seven years, the beetle has been linked to thedestruction of more than 70 million ash trees. DEC officialsare rightfully concerned at the presence of the beetle in NY,thus the purple triangles hanging in local trees.

The primary method of transport is through untreatedfirewood, which is why the DEC has banned out-of-statefirewood and restricted intrastate transport of firewood thathas not been kiln dried to 50 miles.

Still, that is a tough regulation to police. Attempting tostop hundreds of thousands of campers from tossing a few

sticks of firewood into their trunk before visiting theAdirondacks is a tough order to fill.

Nevertheless, conservationists say it is crucial if we’d liketo avoid economic and environmental impacts, the likes ofwhich have not been seen since the Chestnut Blight or DutchElm Disease.

“This discovery emphasizes the need to establish a na-tional early detection network around major ports of entryso we can intercept these pests before they become estab-lished,” said Troy Weldy, director of Ecological Managementfor The Nature Conservancy. “It is also important for citi-zens to understand that these pests are easily transported infirewood. We ask everyone to do their part by only burningwood close to where they buy it."

DEC Commissioner Pete Grannis had similar sentiments.“This is yet another wake-up call for all New Yorkers that

invasive species pose a grave threat to the health of our nat-ural resources and ecosystems, and ultimately, our econo-my. Tough but practical measures, such as quarantines, fire-wood regulations, public education and other regulatory ac-tions will continue to be needed if we are to limit the dam-age from EAB and other invasives.”

What to look forAdult beetles leave distinctive D-shaped exit holes in the

outer bark of the branches and the trunk. Other signs of in-fection include tree canopy dieback, yellowing, extensivesprouting from the roots and trunk (called "epicormicshoots") and browning of leaves. Infested trees may also ex-hibit woodpecker damage from larvae extraction. Reportsuspected damage to the state by calling 1-866-640-0652.

Emerald Ash Borer found in New York

The picture above shows damage caused to an ash tree by the Emer-ald Ash Borer, a non-native beetle that has found its way to New YorkState. Conservation officials fear the beetle, shown in the picture in-set, could devestate a part of the state’s 900 million ash trees. TheEmerald Ash Borer has metallic green wing covers and a copperyred or purple abdomen; it is small enough to fit easily on a penny.
