On June 19, nearly 1,400 participants poured into the Clinton County Fair- grounds raising donations for the non- profit organization which currently to- tal more than $185,000. Three hundred survivors of the disease were at the event wearing purple shirts as proof the disease “can’t win,” as keynote speaker Gordon J. Hazel stated. In his speech, Hazel, who is current- ly battling pancreatic cancer, had words of advice which he strongly emphasized “I mean, everyone eventually dies from something,” Hazel said. “But, it’s impor- tant, it’s very impor- tant, to know that hu- man beings have sur- vived every cancer known to man. So, I might die. This might eventually take my life. It might not. Either way, I’m telling you tonight, it cannot win.” Hazel, who many may know as the former executive director of the Joint Council for Economic Opportunity of Clinton and Franklin Counties, had some difficulty during his speech, as medicine he is currently taking affects his vocal cords. “I almost declined the invitation to speak here today,” Hazel explained during his speech. But, then he reminded the crowd “cancer can’t win.” “I thought about that and I said, ‘If I decline this invitation to speak ... I’m declining because I can’t talk very well. And I can’t talk very well because I’m taking a medication to fight cancer,’” said Hazel. “So, if I didn’t come, I would have given that cancer some kind of power over me and I absolute- ly refuse to do that and let it win.” See RELAY, page 15 By Jeremiah S.

CHAMPLAIN — The efforts of Clinton CountyClerk and Champlain resident John H. Zurlo havenot gone unnoticed.
During the Town of Champlain Republican Par-ty’s annual spaghetti dinner June 19, Zurlo wasrecognized for his accomplishments and contri-butions to the town, county and surrounding area.
Committee chairman Oliver M. Barie applaud-ed Zurlo, a man whom he has known for severalyears and has give a great deal to the community.
The committee reflected on Zurlo’s 42 years ofservice to the county, serving first as a Champlaintown councilman, then as Clinton County Legis-lator for Area One and most recently as countyclerk. He was also lauded for his numerous con-tributions to civic and nonprofit organizations, in-cluding Rotary International, Kiwanis Club Inter-national and the Knights of Columbus, amongothers.
When the committee was deciding how to hon-or Zurlo, Barie said the best way they knew howwas to name him their Citizen of the Year.
“I have spent the majority of my week trying tocontemplate a worthy ‘thank you,’ or even a wor-thy reward,” said Barie. “And, then I rememberedwhat Jesus said, and I realized the only way ofthanking a man like John would be to give him theworld.”
“The only problem is,” Barie continued, “Johnwould look at you straight in the eyes and say
there has to be someone more deserving thanhim.”
Barie presented Zurlo with a plaque which read“In Grateful Recognition of your Devoted Serviceand Outstanding Contributions to the Communi-ty.”
State Sen. Elizabeth O’C. Little, R-Queensbury,was also among the dignitaries in attendance whoapplauded Zurlo for his career. Little, who hasknown Zurlo and his wife, Mary, for several years,presented him with a certificate honoring his serv-ice.
“John’s done so much for the community, somuch for Champlain and so much for ClintonCounty,” said Little. “And, to be here tonight inhis presence and in your presence is really impor-tant ... He’s done a great job and I’m very proudto be able to call him a friend.”
Zurlo said he was touched the party set asidethe evening to honor him and that so many of hisfriends — nearly 200 people overall — were ableto make it to the event.
“I really appreciated them honoring me for myyears of service working for the party and for thepeople of the area and the county,” said Zurlo. “Iwas impressed so many of my friends came to seeme. I never would have expected to see so manypeople.”
In addition to his career with the county, Zurlowas commended for his work as an educator, hav-ing served as a high school business teacher for 34years with the Northeastern Clinton CentralSchool District before his retirement in 1994.

According to the National Institute on Aging, healthscams and the marketing of unproven cures havebeen around for many years. Today, there are more
ways than ever to sell these untested products. Sadly, olderpeople are often the target of such scams.
The problem is serious. Untested remedies may be harm-ful. They may get in the way of medicines prescribed by yourdoctor. They may also waste money. And, sometimes, usingthese products keeps people from getting the medical treat-ment they need.
Health scams prey on people who are frightened or inpain. Living with a chronic health problem is hard. It’s easyto see why people might fall for a false promise of a quickand painless cure.
These scams usually target diseases that have no cures,like diabetes, arthritis, and Alzheimer ’s disease. You maysee ads for:
• Anti-aging medications. • Arthritis remedies. If you are thinking about any new
treatment, such as diet, a device, or another arthritis prod-uct, talk with your doctor first.
• Cancer cures. Scam artists prey on a fear of cancer.• Memory aids. Many people worry about losing their
memory as they age.
• Dietary supplements.Some vitamins may be help-ful but supplements may bebad for people taking certainmedicines or with some med-ical conditions.
• Health insurance. Somecompanies offer coveragethat promises more than it in-tends to deliver. Find out ifthe company and agent are li-censed in your state.
The Federal Trade Com-mission can help you spotfraud. The Food and DrugAdministration protects the public by assuring the safety ofprescription drugs, biological products, medical devices,food, cosmetics, and radiation-emitting products. Gettingthe facts about health care products can help protect youfrom health scams.

Having a computer network at home is becomingmore the rule than the exception with many homenetworks using 802.11b/g wireless technology.
Perhaps for some home networks, a wireless system ac-counts for the whole enchilada.
Wireless 802.11b/g is a mature technology that workswell, but the technology may not have the desired through-put as more and more devices are added to the network oras we try streaming video content from a media PC to thetelevision. Of course, an upgrade to the newer 802.11n wire-less standard offers faster throughput, but we cannot justbuy a new router. All the devices to be used must also haveupdated or new wireless adapters to take advantage of the802.11n standard. So what are the options?
One option, called powerline networking, takes advan-tage of the existing network in nearly all homes today — ACutility power. The network signals travel across the AC pow-er lines which are all connected at the circuit breaker panel.If the AC wiring in the house is in good shape, powerlinenetworking is shown to work very well.
It’s as simple as plugging in one device about the size ofa typical AC timer in the outlet where a network connectionis desired and another device near the entry point of thebroadband service. Within seconds the devices “find” each
other and are ready for use;complete the connection onboth sides with Ethernet ca-bles to the network device.
The cost of a simple two-outlet system is typically lessthan $100. A known problemwith powerline networkingis the use of AC filteringsurge protectors. Filteringsurge protectors see networksignals as small ripples in theAC power and filter themout; eliminating those fromthe electrical path betweendevices should take care ofthat issue.

6 - CLINTON TODAY www.Denpubs.com SATURDAY June 27, 2009
Look to your local library(The following is a letter from Colleen Pelletier addressed to
WIRY 1340 radio personality Ducky Drake. Pelletier asked to haveit submitted to Letters to the Editor)
Dear Mr. Drake,Every time I hear you say “is it just me…” I know you are
about to expound on yet another criticism of our city. To-day’s commentary (June 6) showed just how woefully un-dereducated you are on the role that a public library playsin our community and in communities worldwide. Even incountries that have socialism, totalitarianism, communismor monarchies as their form of government, public librariesexist.
The role of the public library in our democratic commu-nity is one that is offered to all people on an equal opportu-nity basis. You suggested in your commentary that other li-braries could pick up the slack if we were to close to savethe city money. Feinberg Library at SUNY Plattsburgh isavailable free to students and faculty, but other people haveto pay to check out books or do Interlibrary Loan. Also, youreceive free Internet access only if you are a student or a fac-ulty member and there are no computers available for gen-eral public use.
We, on the other hand, provide these services to everyone,no matter who you are (and yes, this includes you Mr.Drake). You also suggested the city school libraries could bethe primary library for school children. School libraries areonly open when school is open. What happens when chil-dren doing homework need reference materials? Also, whathappens when those same children are working on a projectso specific, such as local history, that their school librarydoes not have the resources they need?
What about people who work all day and enjoy going tothe library to access the Internet or find a good book, movieor magazine? School libraries and Feinberg Library do notprovide general interest reading materials such as novels,magazines or, in the case of Feinberg Library, children’s pic-ture books — nor do they provide DVDs or talking books forthe patron’s enjoyment. Even if we were to give them $1 mil-lion to $2 million dollars, I doubt they could bring their col-lections up to the standard of our library for general read-ing material and Internet access because they, like us, haveshrinking budgets. You also suggested that the Clinton-Es-sex-Franklin Library System could take over our job and pro-vide all the services that we do. CEF is not open to the pub-lic and they have an extremely small staff because of that.Their primary function is to help all the small libraries in theClinton, Essex and Franklin counties by providing them withdirection and guidance in running a library. They also oper-ate the Bookmobile in areas that have no public library orfor the people who have problems accessing their public li-brary. Senior citizens fall into this category as well somesmall schools in the three counties.
We provide all of the services mentioned above in addi-tion to many more, including a very popular Summer Read-ing Program to encourage children to read during the sum-mer. We offer programs such as a Tai Chi class, chess cluband video game days as well as a community meeting spaceand two art exhibits.
Plattsburgh Public Library is the central library for theClinton-Essex-Franklin Library System which allows us toget special funding from the state to purchase materials inthe adult non-fiction category. These materials are availableto anyone in the three counties with a library card from anyof the member libraries. People can come to Plattsburgh Pub-lic Library to access these materials or they can request themthrough our Interlibrary Loan System. Patrons can accessour on-line card catalog through our web site (www.platts-burghlib.org) and request items that way. We provide accessto databases that we subscribe to for our patrons which canbe accessed through our Web site with a library card fromPlattsburgh Public Library or one of the automated memberlibraries.
I know Mr. Drake that I have used a lot of terminology inthis letter that you may not be familiar with. If you do nothave your own personal dictionary in which to look up thesewords, may I suggest that you make good use of your localpublic library. You could even call them and ask them on thephone for the definitions if you couldn’t get to the libraryfor some reason. To borrow a phrase from one of my favoriteNorth Country people and your former co-worker, “Have anice day and drive carefully.”
Colleen PelletierPlattsburgh
It’s no secret that I love $1 sales at the grocery store.They’re one of the easiest ways to get items for free –and who doesn’t like getting something for free?
For example, when a bag of frozen vegetables is on salefor $1 and I use a $1 coupon, the coupon’s value essentially“pays” for the vegetables – they’re free.
But what if the frozen vegetable happens to be on sale for75 cents and you use a $1 coupon? This is an example of whatcouponers call overage – and it’s one of my favorite aspectsof couponing. Overage 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 hap-pens to that extra 25 cents? At checkout, most stores will ap-ply the extra quarter to the rest of the items I purchase thatday. So, if during the same shopping trip I also buy somebakery rolls for $1.25, the extra quarter of coupon overage isautomatically applied to the rest of my total. In this exam-ple, after giving the cashier my $1 vegetables coupon I wouldowe just $1 in cash for the rolls.
Overage can play a big role in reducing your total grocerybill. If I have many items in the same transaction, each witha coupon that exceeds the value of what I’m buying, I cangain several dollars of overage. That overage can be used tobuy anything: fruit, vegetables, dairy or whatever I’d like.With a family of five, I can always find plenty of other itemsthat my household needs.
However, it’s important to remember that no store is go-ing to give a shopper cash back for overage. I can’t walk intomy local grocery store with that $1 coupon, buy the 75-centvegetables and then ask for a quarter in change. It just does-n’t work that way. But because I’m also buying other items
during the same trip, couponoverage helps save money oneverything else I take home.
When I explain overage inmy coupon classes I’m some-times asked if this is “rippingoff the store.” The answer is,No! Remember, the manufac-turer that issued my $1 veg-etables coupon will reim-burse the store not only $1for the full value of mycoupon but also an addition-al 8 to 12 cents per coupon.(Read the fine print on yourcoupon and you’ll find this spelled out.) So, think of yourcoupons as if they were cash. If I hand the cashier a $1 billto pay for my 75-cent vegetables and $1.25 rolls, the extra 25cents over the cost of the vegetables isn’t lost – it comes offthe price of the rolls.
Most stores automatically allow overage. A few reservethe right to “adjust down” the value of your coupon to thepoint that the item is free, but the shopper does not receivethe overage. To determine how your store handles couponoverages, ask your store for a copy of its coupon policy.

vices, the club is able to provide com-munications for emergency officials insituations where other means of com-munication aren’t accessible, he ex-plained.
“The Ice Storm in 1998 is a perfect ex-ample,” he said. “The club was able toprovide communications when othermeans weren’t available. If we had an-other emergency like that, we could beactivated again to assist in communi-cations in Clinton, Essex and Franklincounties — wherever we might beneeded.”
The club — which has provided com-munications for events like the TupperLake Tinman Triathalon, Lake PlacidIronman Triathalon, and the Platts-burgh YMCA Y-Tri held at Point auRoche State Park — has been able to dojust that with the use of an ambulanceit received from CVPH Medical Centera few years ago, said Donivan. The am-bulance was retrofitted with the neces-sary equipment to communicate withother amateur radios, essentially mak-ing it an emergency communications
vehicle. “If it came to a really drastic meas-
ure where the county needed a mobilecommand station, we could move itwherever they need it,” said Donivan.
The ARRL Field Day — scheduled forthis Saturday, June 27, and Sunday,June 28 — is a perfect opportunity toshowcase what the club can do, saidclub president Daniel L. Jerry, WestChazy.
“The Field Day is a national weekendonce a year where hams get togetherand simulate an emergency communi-cations activation,” explained Jerry.“We gather together at noon on Satur-day and erect antennas, set up ourequipment and get on the air as fast aswe can, getting in contact with othergroups doing the same thing all overthe country.”
However, amateur radio operatingisn’t all work, and this weekend’sevent will show that, said Donivan.The community is greatly encouragedto come out to learn more about whatcan also be a fun hobby by trying out
the radios first-hand, he said.“People might find they have quite
an interest in this when they try it out,especially when they’re able to talk topeople in places like Europe or Aus-tralia,” said Donivan. “I’ve talked topeople all over the world. It’s fun.”
“We certainly invite and encouragepeople to come and see what’s goingon,” said Jerry.
The ARRL Field Day will be held justoutside the village of Dannemora onDouglas Road, from noon Saturday tonoon Sunday.
If someone wanted to get their li-cense either day, licensed examinerswill be on-hand to administer tests aswell, said Donivan. And, if they missthe test, the club offers them locallyevery other month in Plattsburgh, headded.

CHAZY — William H. Miner Agricultural Research Insti-tute is taking part in a new research project in conjunctionwith the Nutrient Management Spear Program at CornellUniversity, Ithaca.
The project, which is funded through the Northern NewYork Agricultural Development Program and New YorkFarm Viability Institute, will consist of field trials to evalu-ate various manure application practices.
The goal of the project is “to determine the impact of dif-ferent manure application methods on nitrogen conserva-tion, residue management, and corn crop yield,” said Cor-nell graduate student Anne Place, who is working with theNMSP.
“Results from this research will help farmers in NorthernNew York determine manure incorporation practices thatcan maximize nitrogen utilization with minimal soil distur-bance,” further explained agronomist Eric Young, who re-cently joined the staff at Miner Institute.
Researchers are evaluating surface application of manurewithout incorporation into the soil, shallow incorporationof manure with an aeration tool, and chisel incorporation,and a farmer selected incorporation tool at 10 farmsthroughout New York.
“Most farms, including the Miner Institute, selected thechisel plow as the third treatment,” said Dr. Quirine M. Ket-terings, who is serving as lead investigator for the project.
Place collects soil samples before and after manure appli-cations, at planting time, at sidedress time and when thecorn is harvested. The samples are tested for nitrate levels,nutrient content, moisture and soil nitrogen supply poten-tial using the Illinois Soil Nitrogen Test.
The research also includes data on soil compaction,residue coverage, late season stalk nitrate levels, and corncrop yield and quality.
“Our first year results in Northern New York were im-pacted by rainy weather causing saturated soil most of thespring and generally poor stands of corn at the trial field atMiner Institute,” said Place. “Although the [ISNT] indicat-ed the soil nitrogen supply potential was high, the soggy soilconditions caused root development problems and low ni-trogen availability and nitrogen uptake. The [PresidedressSoil Nitrogen Test] and late season stalk nitrate results wereconsistent with field observations.”
In addition, a late summer storm that damaged the corncrop at the Miner Institute resulted in low crop yield data.
“What we have learned so far from the Miner Institute tri-al is that adding nitrogen will not overcome poor growingconditions, such as early season wetness,” said Ketterings.“We expect this second year of trials will provide a new op-portunity to evaluate manure application methods underdifferent weather and field conditions.”
The Miner Institute is one of 10 dairy farm trial sites lo-cated across New York State and has worked with Cornell’sNutrient Management Spear Program since 2000.
The William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute, lo-cated at 1034 Miner Farm Road, will host an open house thisSaturday, June 27, offering the public free guided tours ofthe facilities and demonstrations. The event, which will runfrom 12-4 p.m., will give the public an opportunity to learnabout the latest research projects such as the partnershipwith Cornell University and to meet with staff and students.
The open house will also feature the premiere of the in-stitute’s new video,”Miner Institute: 100 Years and Grow-ing,” produced by Paul Frederick Productions.
For more information about the institute or this Satur-day’s open house, contact Amy Bedard at 846-7121, ext. 149,or visit the institute’s Web site, www.whminer.org.
Manure application practices beingevaluated at Chazy’s Miner Institute Public reminded of open house this Saturday beginning at noon
William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute and Cornell University are researching the most effective practices of manure applica-tion. The research involves collecting soil samples before and after manure applications and when corn is planted and harvested.

Though the project hastaken since the 1990s to com-plete, Kasprzak said he wasproud to see it finally cometo fruition.
“This parcel has been de-veloped as a park to remainforever open and wild forthe people of Plattsburgh,New York, and the region,”said the mayor, who empha-sized the importance of suchdevelopments. “Developing
and preserving open spaceto benefit the general publicshould be a priority for alladministrations and it hasbeen for many administra-tions prior to me even beinghere today.”
Kasprzak applauded theefforts of past city mayorsJack Stewart and DanielStewart and their adminis-trations for getting the de-velopment to where it standstoday.
Daniel Stewart said he al-ways envisioned the daywould come when the citywas able to take advantageof the property's location forall to enjoy. And, thoughmany compare Plattsburghto Burlington, Vt., he said,Plattsburgh has an advan-tage over its neighboringcity across the lake.
“Look at Burlington's wa-terfront park and look at thisproperty,” said Daniel Stew-art. “Tell me which one has abetter view, access and abil-ity of use for the constituen-cy. Plattsburgh does.”
“Very few cities can saythey have what we have,”the former mayor continued.“And, for decades to come,people will enjoy what westarted a decade ago.”
Other enhancements arein discussion for the water-front area, Daniel Stewartsaid, adding he will workwith Kasprzak to ensure anypotential improvements goforward.

SARANAC —Seventeen-year-oldMarissa Horton is passionate about re-solving the negative impacts overpop-ulation has on horses across the coun-try.
The Saranac High School seniorearned the title of Senior Level Presen-tation Champion at the New York State4-H Horse Public Presentation for herspeech titled “Unwanted Horse.” Hor-ton, who has been involved with 4-Hfor the past 11 years, gave the speech atCornell University in Ithaca May 16,and it’s a topic which she’s very con-cerned about.
“This is a topic I’ve always been in-terested in because due to our econo-my and some natural disasters thathave occurred in different parts of ourcountry, the number of unwanted hors-es is getting to be a humongous prob-lem,” said Horton.
Horton, who has competed at thestate level competition for the past fouryears, said she spent roughly three tofour months researching the topicwhich has been widely reported in themedia.
“There are unwanted horses every-where — farms, places that house racehorses and even where backyard own-ers just no longer want their horses,”said Horton. “This is something that’sjust going to get worse if people aren’tinformed about it. They won’t knowwhat to do when this problem getsworse.”
The 2007 closure of the final three re-maining horse slaughterhouses in theUnited States have also contributed tothe number of unwanted horses, saidHorton. The slaughterhouses, untilthat time, helped keep the horse popu-lation in check.
In her presentation, Horton givesproposals of how to resolve the issue,based off examples given by the Amer-ican Horse Council.
“Throughout the presentation Ishared what they are suggesting and acouple of those things were encourag-
ing owners to do things like leasinghorses to someone who doesn’t haveone or donating your horses to thera-peutic riding centers or colleges or con-tacting local rescue facilities,” she said.
Now having the state title under herbelt, Horton will present her speech atvarious 4-H exhibits, including the up-coming Clinton County Fair in Mor-risonville and New York State Fair inSyracuse. The next step will be to bringher presentation to the National 4-HHorse Public Presentation in Kentuckythis November.
The requirement of participating inthe national competition is having themost up-to-date information possible,said Horton.
“I’ve been reading and researchingmy topic every day since [winning thestate competition],” she said. “Sincethis problem is something that’s hap-pening right now and is just gettingworse, every single day there are more
stories and more proposals to solve thisproblem.”
“It’s a topic that’s constantly chang-ing and with that, my presentation hasto constantly be changing with it,” sheadded.
Horton would have actually quali-fied for nationals last year when shewas a junior, but juniors are restrictedfrom moving on to the national com-petition, she said.
“You can only go when you’re a sen-ior,” she explained.
However, she now looks forward tocompeting in November. In order to doso, Horton said she was told there willbe approximately $400-$500 in associ-ated expenses.
Those interested in making a dona-tion toward Horton’s expenses maycontact Alexa King or DarleneMedeiros at the Clinton County officeof Cornell Cooperative Extension at561-7450.

Momentum Track Club,”James Medeiros explainedof the former BeekmantownCentral School track coach.“He’s now moved out of thearea and the club kind of dis-banded.”
However, both Matt andJames Medeiros explained
two local runners, SherodLuscombe and WillyWatkins decided to beginNLTC nearly five years ago,but have since looked tosomeone else to continue theclub.
“That’s when Mattstepped up,” James
Medeiros said. “I didn’t re-ally want Matt to kind of gointo this by himself. Not thathe can’t handle it ... but I’vebeen around and experiencecounts. Anything I can do tohelp him, I will, but he callsthe shots.”
Matt Medeiros admits thenew role has been stressful,but in the long run he can seethe benefits.
“To see people out theredoing stuff they want to doand have fun doing it; if wecan put on events like thatmore and more, we’ll growas a sport, which will begood,” he explained.
Matt Medeiros’ first stepin growing the sport of trackand field was to host the AllComers meet, which raised$150 toward the club.
“Since [Luscombe andWatson] formed [the club],it’s been pretty much roadevents,” Matt Medeirossaid. “And, I’m trying to getmore track involved. Ex-pand it so it’s not just roadrunning.”
For the event, MattMedeiros put together raceswhich may not be typicallyseen during a regular trackand field meet, includingspecial events for childrenand a distance medley relayin which four people run a
different distance.“When I put the event
schedule together I putsome distances that youmight not normally see onan outdoor track and maybejust get some more people,”he explained. “But the [five-kilometer] was the big eventthat most people wanted todo, so next year that’s defi-nitely going to be in there forsure. Some of the otherevents might not be.”
One of the goals of the AllComers meet was to get fam-ilies involved, said MattMedeiros, as well as increasemembership for NLTC.
“This area has got talentand it just needs to betapped,” he said.”
“As people get out of highschool, get out of college,and they’ve done track andcross country, they’re look-ing for an outlet to havesomething to train for, be-cause they’re still athletes,”James Medeiros said. “Noteveryone’s going to go playin the softball league, or thebasketball league. It justdoesn’t work that way. Run-ning is that type of sport thatyou can continually do andnot worry whether or notyou’re going to make a teamor not.”
If interested in becoming amember of NLTC, visitwww.nlrunners.com or callMatt Medeiros at 524-1269.
“There’s a lot of naturalsin this club. It just needs togrow,” Matt Medeiros said.“It’s going to take awhile,but you got to start some-where.”

Throughout the rest of his speech, Hazelgave uplifting thoughts about cancer, in-cluding how he laughs at cancer every nightwhen he goes to bed.
“When you have cancer and you can laughabout it, do it,” Hazel urged. “Do it and saveyour worry.”
Hazel added he didn’t find cancer to befunny, but because it gives people enoughworry, people should “let it give you somelaughs for a change.”
“Laughter is good for the heart. It’s goodfor the mind, body. It’s good for the soul,”he said. “So, we need to laugh more.”
Plattsburgh’s Relay for Life chairmanMark Brown Jr. said Hazel is among othersurvivors who speak every year during theannual event.
“Every year we have a survivor speaker,”Brown explained. “Somebody whose beenthrough it, who can offer some words of en-couragement and can relate more easily toall of those people wearing purple shirts.”
Brown added it is the people who wear the
purple shirts, who people are most excitedto see.
“They’re the reason that we know whatwe’re doing matters,” he said. “Because if itdidn’t matter, and it wasn’t helping, our sur-vivor counts wouldn’t be increasing everyyear.”
In the end, Brown found this year ’s Relayfor Life to be a huge success. There were 103teams, 100 more survivors than last year,and Plattsburgh reached its goal of 261 reg-istrants for the CPS3 cancer preventionstudy.
“It’s become such a huge event; there’spractically no one in the community thatdoesn’t help,” Brown said. “The thousandsof people that showed up that day to cometo the event and raised money, who donat-ed money, without them we wouldn’t be atwhere we’re at right now.”
American Cancer Society community ex-ecutive Joan Brown said she expects theamount raised to surpass $200,000 after allcorporate sponsors and donations come in.

When Tom Yacovella peered overthe side of his 12-foot SeaNymph at the potential record-
setting brookie below, he said a quickprayer.
“I said, ‘God, just let me get this one in theboat and I promise I’ll be good,’” he saidwith a laugh.
Minutes later, Yacovella’s prayers wereanswered as he eased the 5-pound, 4-ouncebrookie to the net. At just 21-inches, the foot-ball-shaped female had a massive girth of 15inches.
He caught the monster June 7 on RaquetteLake in 24 feet of water on a three-and-a-half-inch Rapala. Yacovella described thefight as “vicious” and said he is still amazed he was able toboat the fish by himself.
The fish has been certified by the state and appears to havebroken the former state record set by Jesse Yousey in 2006by five ounces. An official state announcement is pending.
While Yacovella has 52-plus years of brook trout fishingexperience under his belt, he said he never thought he’dhold one of the most coveted freshwater records in the state.
In fact, he didn’t set out that spring day to set a record —only beat his personal best of a four-pounder.
But, as fate would have it, the Utica-based wildlife artistand avid outdoorsman managed both.
For Yacovella, it was the ultimate culmination of a lifelonglove affair with native brookies.
“I’m still in shock, it seems surreal,” Yacovella said. “I ab-solutely love brook trout. I think they are the purest strainin the Northeast.”
Although humble about the feat, Yacovella is most cer-tainly deserving of the big fish. Those who know him are
well aware of his attention to detail — a factevident in his artwork as well as his outdoorpursuits.
In a recent discussion about the record fish,Yacovella quoted French chemist Louis Pas-teur, who said “chance favors the preparedmind.”
“In other words, the harder you work atsomething, the luckier you get,” Yacovellasaid. “Sure, there is luck involved, but themore prepared you are the better your chanceof success.”
From that perspective, Yacovella is a stu-dent of the brookie. From the conditions ofthe day to line weight and color, Yacovella leftlittle to chance. He chose to fish June 7 “be-
cause there was a slight ripple and it was overcast,” and be-cause “the black flies were at their worst.”
On smaller ponds, Yacovella runs the age-old favorite ofa Lake Clear Wabbler and a worm. On larger water, like Ra-quette, he prefers a minnow imitation. He runs 6-pound testto a three-way swivel, with a pencil-lead sinker pulling itdown and a 48-inch, 4-pound leader to a floating Rapala.
“I feel that keeps the lure tracking straight and gives it themost realistic action,” he said.
Because Yacovella runs such a light leader, he constantlychecks for frays and changes them often. He prefers steel-head rods of 9-feet or longer with a fast-action tip, to ensurethe fish is fighting the pole and not the reel or line — andrelies on back reeling big fish instead of his drag.
Finally, Yacovella studies thermoclines, and intentionallyweighted his Rapala that day to run at 24 feet — above thelakers and below the smallmouths.
It was a combination the big brookie found irresistible.Ironically, when the brookie was being certified by Dave
Erway, the fisheries biologist in the Department of Environ-mental Conservation’s Utica office, a three-inch minnowwas found in the fish’s gullet.
“I told my buddies I intentionally matched the hatch,” Ya-covella said with another quick laugh.
To be certified for a state record, a brook trout must be dis-sected by a state biologist like Erway who counts its pyloriccaeca — or the finger-like projections in the small intestines.Brookies have between 20-55, splake between 65-90 and lak-ers between 95-200.
Yacovella’s fish had 37, making it easily certifiable.While Yacovella has been fishing Raquette for years, he
readily admits the number of brookies he’s taken there arefew.
Still, he held no doubt Raquette had the potential to pro-duce a slammer — he’d seen evidence of that on a past icefishing trip.
So, he intentionally targeted the species, and said he wascontent to wait all day if need be, which he very nearly did.The trip began at 5:30 a.m. and Yacovella’s fish hit at 3:30 inthe afternoon.
It was his only hit of the day.“In my mind, anything that gets that big is either lucky or
selective, so you have to be prepared to put in your time,”he said.
Other photographs of Yacovella’s trophy fish can be seenon his Web site, www.tomyacovella.com.
