Across the country, children, coaches and parents continue to look for a balance between competition and sportsmanship. . For parents and coaches, keeping the lines of communication open and having r~ alistic expectations may be the way to keep· the game positive, but it can sometimes be a struggle. Many coaches believe the pressure some parents put on young athletes is a direct result of society's trend to push children at a younger age. Many children today 'are involved in organized sports as young as age 3. A lot of parents see it is a way to socialize and learn, but others hope it is the start of a successful athletic career. Guilderland youth soccer coach Tara Camardo said she fears that parents and chilo ~ dren feel that if they are not actively involved at a young age, they may never be able to catch up. "Sports 'are supposed to be a great way for children to find a path for themselves, to be part of something, part of a team. r worry that some kids may be left behind because . they were not on a team from an earliest age possible. It is important for coaches and organizations to make sure they give every child an opportunity, no matter what," said Camardo.

Although residents overwhelmingly approved the 20072008 school budget (see related story on page 22), outgoing board member Richard Svenson said he believes there is room for caution regarding the funding of future school elections, referring to events in a nearby district. The teachers union in the Guilderland school district endorsed two candidates and attempted to fund those candidates by giving each a $500 contribution. Svenson said he believed teachers unions should not be financially contributing to a school board candidate. "It just bothered me som~ what that unions were going that far in a district not too far o Concerns Page ;C2 Momentum is building for Jim Grady in his attempt to become the next Bethlehem supervisor.

The endorsement means Grady's name will appear on two lines this fall as he tries to unseatinterim Supervisor Jack Cunningham, a who took over followingTheresa Egan's resignatiori in April. "They contacted me and asked me if r was interested," said Grady, who Grady interviewed in front of the committee last week. Grady, who considers himself a fiscal conservative, said he would not run on a line that is not consistent with his own philosophy. 'Taxes are the biggest problem facing the town," said Grady, who is punctuating his campaign by attempting to donate 25,000 trees to residents this year. "r started planting trees in 1976 and ifs a way to keep me connected to trees and the importance of the environment."· Grady said he has already handed out up to 4,000 trees in the past month including free Colorado blue spruce, Norway spruce, and Serbian spruce trees.

Bouck was processed and Buckle up blitz begins this week New York State Police Troop G is holding a "Buckle Up New York" campaign from Monday, May 21, through Saturday. June 3. The campaign is part of the state's "zero tolerance" seat belt enforcement blitz that will combine the efforts of . more than 500 police agencies statewide. Troopers, deputies and local police across the state will staff safety restraint checkpoints and dedicated patrols in the ongoing "Click it or Ticket -- Buckle Up New York" campaign. The Memorial Day holiday. weekend is considered the unofficial opening of the summer travel season. .. "Buckling up clearly saves lives. and if you don't. you will be ticketed," said Major Patricia M. Groeber, Troop G ·commander. "Unfortunately, too many New Yorkers still need a reminder, and we're going to provide it." Recent statistics indicate that roughly 15 percent of motorists in New York still fail to wear safety restraints, and police believe the number is higher during nighttime hours. . "It's tragic and unnecessary, but someone we know will likely die or be unnecessarily injured for failing to take one simple step: buckling up," Groeber said. ':It really is a matter of life and death." According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), highway crashes killed 33,329 motor vehicle occupants during 2006 and more than 55 percent of those victims were not wearing their safety restraints. Crashes also kill more children between the ages of 2 and 14 than any other cause. Last year during Buckle Up America Week, which included the Memorial Day holiday weekend. state police investigated six fatal crashes in New York that claimed nine lives. Authorities believe four of those killed would likely be alive today if they had been wearing seatbelts. During that same period. troopers issued 10,695 safety restraint citations. including 293 for child seat violations. Law enforcement agencies in New York initiated the Buckle Up New York campaign in 1999. Highway· safety advocates said they hope New York will ultimately surpass the 90 percent mark for seat belt use. . Several trees in a wooded area next to Hamagrael school were recently cut down to make room for more parking space. The work is part of the district.-wide $93 million construction project in the Bethlehem school district. Gregg Nolte. district facilities director. said 28 new parking spaces would be created in August when the project is complete. Nolte said the new spaces will create a safer drop-off environment at the school. Submitted photo- From brushes to Baba Ghanoush, you'll find the best things at Delaware Plaza.

"I believe that by leveraging any experience in the private and public sectors, it will enable me to contribute to the legislative process in a positive way." Theresa and David Pillittere's backyard at 75 Henderson Road in Glenmont was named a Wildlife Habitat by the National Wildlife Federation for attracting a variety of birds, butterflies and other wildlife that help add diversity the local environment. "We're thrilled," said Theresa Pillitiere. "We always thought of our backyard as a natural habitat." For a site to be considered a Wildlife Habitat, certain criteria need to be met. "A site must provide food, water, cover and places to raise young," said Mary Burnette, spokeswoman for the NWF. There are currently 75,000 certified habitats nationwide, with about 2,000 of those in New York "The number of people trying to receive certification has -escalated the past few years because of habitat loss in communities," Burnette added. Creating a wildlife habitat, according to the NWF, also reduces pollution that can lead to global warming. The average size 01, a habitat is between one-third to one-half acre and can be found on urban balconies and thousandacre areas. The Pillitieres said they have been maintaining and adding to their habitat site since they purchased the Henderson Road~ property 13 years ago. Recently spotted wildlife include a blue heron, the steady flow of blue jays, bluebirds and robins one can find in many~backyards and woods throughout the Northeast. "We have a rohin's nest in one of our trees at eye level," said Pillitiere. There are two main area~ to the Pillitieres' habitat: a large perennial garden on one side and a "forever wild" area on the other side of the property. "It's always a work in progress. Like life, it's always a journey," Pillitiere said. Theresa Pillitiere works on the garden when she comes home from work, and her husband, David, who recently retired, spends much of the day maintaining the site. At night, they sit out on their deck and watch the wildlife come and go. "We are trying to give back and keep a part of this land forever wild," Pillitiere said. The Pillitieres will receive a one-year subscription to the award-winning National Wildlife magazine and receive an NWF special outdoor sign designating their yard or garden as wildlife-friendly.

Cotrofeld holds a degree in accounting and has been employed by General Electric since 1968. He has spent the past 16 years as government contract negotiator and administrator for GE Global Research. "Mr. Cotrofeld is well qualified to serve the residents of the 34th district," said Albany County Majority Leader Frank Commisso, D-Albany. .Cotrofeld is also a treasurer for the Bethlehem Town Democratic Committee and a member of the Albany County Democratic Committee.

He asked for a green Gatorade, a red Gatorade and sour Nerds. I repeated his order, stalling for time. It was my first time staffing the concession stand at the softball field. I had no idea where any of those items were. Why didn't the kid just order a hot dog? Hot dogs are $1.50, and I know where to find them. The veteran concession stand workers had assured the newbies to not worry about locating the items. They said to just ask. the kids. I wanted to appear knowledgeable and professional. I figured I'd do a quick search first and only ask for help if necessary. I turned around and faced the shelves of candy. Luckily, I immediately spotted the Nerds box. It was on the top row. I reached in and saw that there were different varieties. Please let there be the sour kind, I thought to myself. I found them. Meanwhile my husband had retrieved the Gatorade bottles from the refrigerated drink unit I checked the price board and did the math in my head: Two drinks at $1.50 cents each plus 50 cents for the candy. ''That will be $3.50," I told the customer. His little brother replied, "But he only has $4." Were they trying to trick me? "Four dollars is more," explained the older child to the younger one. I gave the 50 cents change and wondered if a parent would ever see those quarters. I had felt a certain amount of pressure waiting for customers inside the concession stand. Would I be able to locate the foods? Would I charge the correct price? Would I calculate the correct change? What if I dropped som'ething? What if a big crowd arrived at once? I needn't have worried. The Take me out to the crowd. The kids ask for hot dogs and Gatorade. Nobody wants the nice sandwich I made.

After all, I found the sour Nerds and Rainbow Rice Krispies treats, I made proper change without a calculator, and I remembered to place the $20 bill in the special compartment in the cash box. Maybe next time I'd have the opportunity and confidence to don the plastic gloves and serve the hot dogs or take the fresh·baked cookies out of the oven. After that, who knows, maybe I could open my own restaurant. I like being at the softball games, more than I would have imagined. And it's not because I'm a big sports fan. In fact, I'm . not much into ;tports at all. A few weeks into softball season, my lO-year-old asked me to give her two reasons why '1 don't play sports. First I wondered what precipitated the question and why she had' requested "two reasons." Why didn't she just say, "What is the reason you don't play sports?" Did she assume there were multiple reasons, but that I'd only give one? Did she worry that I'd have a long list of reasons and just wanted a short answer? Then I wondered if I'd have trouble falling asleep if I engaged in a discussion about my in soccer. Elementary-school age children have the opportunity to play in sports leagues, learn skills, and most importantly, be . a part of a team. I watch these games as an adult and I see that lots of kids strike out and lots of kids get called out at first And at least at this point, in girls' softball, the kids don't get down on one another. ~ TIME WARNER WEEKLVWEATHER ~ CABLE Chief Meteorologist Mike Bono Rivers & Recreation Albany Almanac Record hi h/low/ ear AVERAGE HIGH 73° _Day Wednesday, May 23 Thursday, May 24 Friday, May 25 Saturday, May 26 Sunday, May 27 Monday, May 28 Tuesday, May 29 " AVERAGE LOW 50° HighNear 93°/1964 92°/1964 94°/1981 94°/1914 94°/1914 91°/1911 93°/1931 LowNear 36°/1967 29°/1963 30°/1956 38°/1972 30°/1969 33°/1994 34°/1956 ANNUAL PRECIPITATION 15.17 inches as of Friday, May 18th 1.67 inches above average This River Levels Sun & Moon eek in weather May 29, 1995 On Memorial Day in Great Barrington an F3 tornado formed from a supercell thunderstorm in the Hudson Valley.

Residents also approved a bus proposition authorizing the purchase of four buses at a cost not to exceed $360,000. The vote count for the proposition was 876to-641. In the school board elections, in which seven candidates vied for five seats on the board, the following candidates won seats: Jeffrey Sorensen with 894 votes; John Vadney with 891; Cynthia Elliott, an incumbent, with 886; Tracey Traver with 877; and Mike Varney, an incumbent, with 802. Not elected were John Semenick, an incumbent, with 640 votes, and Keith Livengood, who received 532 votes. The top three vote getters received three·year terms, the fourth won a two·year unexpired term and the fifth a one-year, unexpired term. "I'd like to thank all of the voters for their support and encouragement. We are ecstatic that we are able to continue moving the district forward in a good way," s.aid Superintendent Vicki Wright. The budget will increase spending by 3.51 percent and the amount to be raised by taxes by 4.45 percent. The tax increase is the lowest proposed in RCS in the past four years and would result - when combined with property reassessments taking place in Coeymans - in tax rate decreases in three of the district's four towns. The proposed budget is also $80,000 less than the district could have spent under a contingency budget. Passage of the bu.dget adds another half-day of prekindergarten. The budget restores afterschool programs cut over the past two years; increases nursing coverage in the schools to meet increased student needs; restores foreign language classes to seventh grade; and provides funding for Project Lead the Way, which would institute a new technology curriculum starting in the seventh grade next year that would help students understand the real life implications of the technology, math and science skills they are learning. The budget also provides funding to continue community access to the district's facilities, including the continuing education program and Aquatics Center.

Matters of Opinion Spotlight Losers are winners, too Nothing is harder than watching your own child experience disappointment, especially publicly. Perhapsthis is why some parents turn into brutes at sporting events, loudly coaching their own children from the sidelines, sometimes chastising them, and worst of all, berating players on the opposite team or questioning a coach or referee's motives. With all sporting .contests, there's a winner and a loser. Our Page 1 centerpiece this week addresses some issues about kids and sports. Kids can learn early life lessons from sports. It's great when coaches of 4- and 5-year-olds tell them that the game was a tie. It's also good that every little one gets time on the field - even if they spend it picking daisies instead of staying with the play. Pretty quickly, though, kids figure out that one team scores more than the other, and here's where coaches and parents really need to be the grown-ups. There's no crime in losing; it's the best opportunity for performance assessment, re-evaluation and figuring out how to do better next time. Learning to accept losses gracefully and congratulating the better players are valuable lessons. If we teach our children to say, "I can do better next time," then study the person who did better in the game, we give them a great tool for parts of life that will involve things more important than a home run. , As they move through life, rather than envy the person who scored more points, got a better grade, got that promotion or bought a bigger house, they will learn from them rather than feel cheated. Teaching kids to evaluate losses can also let kids find the places where they fit best. If baseball's not their sport, maybe soccer is. If no sport is their sport, they can look into things that really get them inspired and be successful there. The greatest lesson to be learned from participating in sports is being part of the -team, not just an individual. Let's not cheat our children of a lesson they can use for. the rest of their lives. Editorial We~kdays with Harry Point of View By CARl SCRIBNER scribnerc@spotlightnews.com The writer is the reporterJor the Burnt Hills and Milton editions oj Spotlight Newspapers. It began with a phone call on a day snow was falling. The call was from an old acquaintance, whom I'd written about years ago when she retired from teaching in Ballston Spa and her· co-workers built a tree house in her backyard, where she could lounge and read. I don't think Marian did much lounging in the limbs of that willow tree, and perhaps not much reading. Marian's husband, Harry, who is 85, had a long-term illness that I never concerned myself with. He rarely ventured outside; I don't remember seeing him watch any of the progress of that tree house. Harry was a writer, I knew that, but I didn't have time to take any interest in learning about his work. N01" six or so years later, Marian was calling me with a question: Did i have the time to help Harry with his writing, mostly typing but a bit of editing? I really didn't have time.. With three children, freelance writing work and a regular reporting beat with Spotlight Newspapers, I'm generally strung out. But something in Marian's voice made me agree to visit her and Harry later that week. The snow subsided. Marian's driveway was glazed with ice as I slopped through the slush and tapped the Victorian knocker on their chipping yellow door. Marian looked exactly the same. But as soon as I was inside the house, I was struck by a sharp odor and the steady sound of chugging machinery. Harry sat in a large leather recliner that took up much of the liVing room. The humming machine was his respirator.

I was shocked, however, to walk past Hamagrael School on McGuffey Lane last week and witness more than 100 beautiful trees being cut down on the lovely scho()l grounds. In addition, trees across the field on the side toward the Delmar Bypass are also scheduled to be cut down! The purpose of this project, I learned, was for a parking lot for 28 cars and also to expand the playing fields. I urge concerned citizens and taxpayers to think carefully ofwhat may happen to our neighboring trees in the future and to follow in detail the Bethlehem School District publication "Highlights." According to the May issue, Leaders thank hometown heroes about 67 percent of eligible students ride district buses each day: State law requires the district to have a seat available for about 97 percent of eligible students. Today there were 15 cars parked along McGuffey Lane in front of the school. Several parents were picking up the~ children from school.

Dodie Seagle Delmar Pesticides aren't necessary Editor, The Spotlight: It is not necessary for the town ofBethlehem to spread potentially hazardous toxic chemicals on the athletic fields at Elm Avenue Park or Colonial Acres Golf Course to try to stop the spread of grubs in the turf. Milky spore (Bacillus popilliae) is an environmentally friendly alternative that is easy to apply and does not pose any harmful threat to children or pets. According to Cornell University, between 1939 and 1953, more than lOOtons of spore powder was applied to turf in more than 160,000 sites in the U.S. as part of a government program. Larval numbers in the turf decreased 10- to 2O-fold· and the population stabilized at this new low level with corresponding reductions in the levels of adult beetle damage. (www.nysaes.comell. edu/ ent/biocontrol/pathogens/ bacillus-popilliae.htrn1) According to the U.S EPA, spores of Bacillus popilliae infect larvae (grubs) ofJapanese beetles, eventually killing the larvae and preventing their development into adult beetles. As a pesticide active ingredient, .' the spores of this bacteriuni are approved for use on lawns and ornament~l plants around residential areas. The spores also infect larvae of some closely related beetles, but do not infect other non-target organisms, such as other insects, birds, mammals, earthworms, and plants. No harm is expected to humans or the environment from use of pesticide products containing spores of B. popilliae. http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/ b iope sticid es/ ingre dien ts/ factsheets/factsheet_054502.htm Before they j.ump to a potentially hazardous conclusion, I urge the town of Bethlehem to take a look at the Web site of the maker of Milky spore, st. Gabriel Laboratories at www. milkyspore.com/milkyspore.htm and consider using :his product.

I didn't know until readingthearticle "GrubsA Gnawing Concern" (Spotlight, May 16) that Bethlehem had passed such a law. The city ofAIbany had theforesightto adopt a similar policy years ago, and withinthenextfuwyearsIexpectrnany more townships will do the same. Ifs appalling to me that parents are callingfortheuse ofpesticides where their children play. I would ask the parents who are concerned about possible ''twistedan\des'' on the fields to do a bit of research into the longterm, very serious effects pesticide exposure can have on children. Children are more susceptible to pesticide exposure. They take in y~~ i ca • for more of it relative to body weight than adults. According to beyondpesticides. org, the u.s. EPA, NationalAcademy of Sciences, and American Public Health Association, among others, have voiced concerns about the danga1hatpesticidesposetochi\dren The body of evidence in scientific literature shows that pesticide exposure can adversely affect a child's neurological, respiratory, innnune,and endocrine system, even at low levels. Several pesticides are also known to cause or exacerbate asthma symptoms. Pesticide residue last much longer than the 24hourperiodlisledonthelittlesigns posted by the 1awri care companies. Ifs my opinion that people who try to achieve perrect lawns are selfish andfuolish. Whatawaste oftime and money, not to mention the damage caused to our enviromnent, and to human and pet health as well. Bethlehemresidentsshouldconsider themselves very lucky they don't have to deal with pesticide exposure on town property.

Locally, the disorder hasn't yet posed a problem. Last weekend, Indian Ladder Farms received 26 hives to aid in its pollination process, all of which are healthy, said Anne Kelly, Indian Ladder hobbyist beekeeper. Because of the thousands .of apple blossoms on the farm, Kelly said, bees play an integral role in pollinating the apple trees. This is a task that Kelly speculated would be impossible to do by hand.

Siena and Saratoga Battlefield team up to explore site's historic impact By GRAHAM S. PARKER parkerg@spotlightnews.com Siena College's history department and the Saratoga National Battlefield will join forces to further explore the historical significance of the Revolutionary War battle that lasted two months in the fall of 1777. The Center for Revolutionary Era Studies has been formed to further promote programs both academic and available to the public. It is the hope of both entities . that the new center will mirror a jointprogram between Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania and the site of the historic Civil War battle fought nearby. The Saratoga Battlefield is an epicenter of Revolutionary and pre-Revolutionary War landmarks, school and park officials said. It is an otherwise untapped resource that, until the announcement of the center, has been little more than the site of one of the most important battles fought on American soil and in thewotld. "TIns is a great opportunity. We've had a good relationship with Siena over the years and have always talked about expanding that," said Frank Dean, superintendent of the battlefield park. The park and school decided last month to move on forming the center without any additiollal federal funding to the park in the pipeline, Dean said. The center has contacted U.S. Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-Hudson in the hopes of landing more federal funding. The center and additional funding had been a mission of former Republican congressman John Sweeney, who Gillibrand defeated last year. Part of the talks over the years has been to expand the park's resources at the battle site, said Dean. That would include a new building to house the center and serve as the foremost resource in the nation for the study of the Revolutionary War era, he said. The new center will focus on the region's role in the fight for American independence and refocus the park's mission to "This is a great opportunity. We've had a good relationship with Siena over the years and have always talked about expanding that. " Frank Dean increase its historical visibility. The American success at the Battle of Saratoga was key in landing French support for the remainder of the war. And it helped foster not only American independence but also the fledgling country's place in the world, said Dean. In spite of its significance, the farm where that battle was fought garners less attention than Gettysburg, he said. Through the center, the site will be opened to a new acadenric focus, one that has been certified by the state education department, and it is gaining the interest of area colleges and public and private schools. In June, the center will offer its first program, a teacher's workshop that has been designed to help nriddle and high school social studies teachers create a new curriculum integrating the Revolutionary era.

"The only thing that we've had that dealt with the Revolutionary War was courses. There was never a center," said Jim Harrison, head of Siena's history department. Siena has sent history students to works as interns at the park in the past, he said. But they never had the opportunities that will come from the new center. The college has created a Certificate for Revolutionary Era Studies in conjunction with the center, he said. The 18-credithour program delves into the history, literature and a number of aspects of that era, said Harrison. Next year, students in the program will be developing media content for the battlefield and offer new narratives on the battle and its impact on the war and area at large. It's about tapping a new resource, said Harrison. "You have everything in your backyard here, and the interesting thing is that no colleges try to mine that. The area is just so rich in Revolutionary era history and there are no college ties to these historic sites," Harrison said.

In fact, 54 percent of northeastern households with children under 18 will bring them along on their Memorial Day vacation this year. Some tips for families traveling with children: • Take regular breaks for you child - occasionally stop at a rest area or a trinket shop to help break up the trip • When possible, coordinate summer travel according your child's nap schedule - if your child sleeps well in the car. • Pack some toys, books and games to keep YOllr child busy in the car. Research for MemQrial Day travel is based on routing requests made at the AAA Hudson Valley Clubs as well as a national survey of 2,000 adults by the Travet Industry Association ofArn.erican, which conducts special research forMA hile warm weather is welcomed by most people, spring and summer can bring certain dangers to pets. A Ka!,sas State University veterinarian says pet owners should be alert to seasonal health issues. According to Dr. Susan Nelson, veterinarian and'clinical assistant professor at K-State's College of Veterinary Medicine, heat exhaustion is a common ailment of pets during summer months. "It's best to exercise pets during the morning or evening hours to avoid the direct sun," Nelson said. "It's also crucial to have plenty of fresh water available and shade for protection. Cats tend to handle heat better than dogs, but both should be given extra care." The intense light from the summer sun can damage your pet's skin, including sunburn. "Pets with lighter-colored coats, especially white or shaved animals, need to be kept out of intense light," Nelson said: "It's best to k'eep pets in the shade during peak hours and use sunscreen or a protective 'jacket. Repeated sun exposure often leads to a serious form of cancer in white cats. Owners should be aware of red patchy areas_on the ears and nose." Summer heat can be a danger to pets' food as well. "Like people, pets naturally eat less during warm weather; however it's important to watch for pet food ,sP9ilage in the heat," Nelson said. "Canned food should not be left out after feeding because of the warm weather and the amount ,of insectsit will attract." Allergies are common in the spring, both for humans and pets. "Cats and dogs can have seasonal allergies just like us, especially during the spring from pollen and grass," Nelson said. "While some do sneeze and have watery eyes, most pets show allergies through skin rashes and itching, sometimes making the animal miserable. If your pet is being bothered by allergies, you should contact your veterinarian for advice." Fleas and ticks are health concerns year-round for pet owners, although summer months intensify the problem. ''The best products to treat and prevent ticks and fleas are available from your veterinarian; other t9Pically applied products aren'tas effective," Nelson said. ''There are numerous diseases that come from fleas and ticks that harm cats, dogs and people, so prevention is very important. Pet owners should also be aware of mosquito, chigger and fly bites which can be irritating and are especially common on outdoor animals." Shaving their coats may be beneficial to some pets, Nelson • said. "There are some benefits from shaving your pet's hair," she said. "It prevents mats, which can be a hiding place for maggots, and it can make them more comfortable in the heat. It's easier to locate ticks and fleas if the coat is trimmed and it's more comfortable for the animal." Rainy weather sometimes leads to standing water, which puts pets at more risk to contract the dangerous disease leptospirosis. Nelson said pet owners should be cautious of their pet's envrronment, including standing water in the animal's area. .

Nelson suggests making summer' travel enjoyable for owners and pets alike. "There is the option of boarding your cat or dog. Be sure that your pet is updated on all vaccines and make reservations well ahead of the day. If leaving a pet with family or friends, be sure they know the pet's routine, have the phone number for your vet available and give them signed consent form so your vet can do what's needed in case of an emergency. "If your pet is traveling with you, have a health certificate. Try taking short trips and try tranquilizing medication before long trips. It's also helpful to bring comforting items from home as well as food and any medications. Always make sure your pet has some type of identification such as tags, tattoos or a micro chip."

While it's great that you're getting more exercise, don't forget to incorporate smart eating habits with increased activity. Fueling your body with healthy snack choices helps keep energy levels high. But many snacks we consider as sources of energy and nutrition are actually loaded with sugar and preservatives. Another common pitfall is to avoid snacking . altogether, and rely on two to three big meals to provide all the nutrients and sustainable energy you need for the day. o Smart snacking is a very important part of our daily diet," says registered dietitian and health educator Allegra Burton, MPH, RD. "By eating small portions balanced with protein and complex carbohydrates throughout the day, we continually fuel our bodies with the nutrients we need to stay healthy and energized." Burton says picking the right Plan ahead so yau have plenty 01 healthy snacks when you're out and about during the summer months. snac};:s can be challenging, especially when you're hungry or on. the go. She shares five easy . tips to carry &ough your next trip or outdoor adventure. oPlan aheac. Before you head to fr_e lake for be weekend or a famiy road trip, plan 00 a variety Df s:lacking options to satisfy everyone. Burt0n recommends fresh fruit, a minure of nuts and dried fruit, low-Jolt striag cheese, and plenty of b<Xtled water. oSnack small and snack often. Whether you're going to the gym, on a walk, or to the amusement park or beach, throw some treats in the car or your backpack. Allnatural products like SOYJOY, a baked nutrition bar made with whole soy and real fruit, are great because they are just the right size, taste great and provide even sustained energy. Keep a variety of flavors on-hand since more options will keep you more likely to come back for more of what's good for you. . • Mix it up. There are many smart snacking options to choose from every day. One day you could - have fruit and nuts, the next day yOgl!rt or veggies with a low fat bean dip. Variety will keep your taste buds from getting bored and will encourage you to keep -reaching fur healthier snacks. o Give in, not up. It's hard to resist a cold, sweet treat on a warm day at the beach or family barbecue. Rather than avoiding moderate indulgences, flex your snack smarts. Choose low-fat frozen yogurt and lean toward dark chocolate over milk or white chocolate since it has antioxidants that are good for your heart And remember, it's all about portion control. o Match snack with activity. Make sure to pack snacks appropriate for your activity. For example, perishable or bulky foods don't make sense if you're embarking on a hike. Instead pack all-natural snacks placed- in baggies such as trail mix, and cutup veggies that are easy to carry and stash in your backpack.

Attendees of Alive at Five can also sample an array of summer favorites such as ice-cold beer, fresh-squeezed lemonade, cotton candy and delicious barbecue from some of the area's local vendors. The concerts are held at the Albany Riverfront Park in the Corning Preserve every Thursday starting June 7 and ending Aug. 16. to create tasty barbecue meals: oGo lean: Choose white-meat poultry without the skin and lean cuts of meat, such as sirloin, flank or tendeiloin. oTry turkey: Many barbecue favorites now have turkey substitutes providing a leaner, lower-calorie option. Try making hamburgers with ground turkey instead of ground beef or grill up a seasoned turkey bratwurst, like J ennie-O Beer 'N Turkey Bratwurst· oFlame-broil fruit For a lowcalorie dessert, try fruit on the grill! Lightly brush cut fruit such as apples, pears and peaches - with canola oil, add a dash of cinnamon, place on skewers and grill for about three minutes. Safe grilling "Preparing and serving grilled entrees and side dishes in warm weather can be tricky," Hanson says. "Keeping fuod safe should be a top priority." Here are some food safety tips: o Keep it cool: To prevent bacteria growth, keep perishable foods, like potato salad, in the refrigerator or a cooler until just before serving. Also, always thaw meat in the refrigerator or cooler, never at room temperature or in the sun. oTrust the temp: Bring your meat thermometer; cook hamburger and pork to 160 degrees F and chicken and turkey .to 165 degrees F. Here's a good rule: if the juices do not run clear, keep cooking. oWhen in doubt, throw it out After the meal, throwaway any leftovers that have become wet or have been left out for one hour on hot days.

'The list includes geographical sites, buildings, cemeteries, schools and homes," said Blodgett. 'There are some references to early Milton residents listed as well. But this is very much a work-in-process." Listings of the historic locations have long been available, but the new compilation, while not definitive, pulls together information from many resources. The list is available to view at Milton Town Hall. The listing is an open-ended document from the settlement period of the mid-1700s through the mid-1900s. The list breaks up the town into the Middle Line Road area along Route 67 to Route 29; the northwest quadrant in the Rock City Falls area; the northeast quadrant in North Milton and the Rowland Hollow areas; the southeast quadrant encompassing Craneville, Factory Village and the Bloodville areas; and the .southwest· quadrant of West Milton, Clute's Corners and Spier's Corners. "The finished document should not be considered as an absolutely complete or finished document," said' Blodgett. "As time progresses and more recent significant historic places reach the 50year mark, they will be added to the inventory." In the Middle line Road area, sites included are the Patchin home and family cemetery on the west side of the road, and Winterwood Farm on the east side of Middle Line Road. The farm was the location for the 1990s filming of the Robert Redford movie 'The Horse Whisperer." In the Rock City Falls area, the list includes the Grenell/ Hoyt Cemetery, which has monuments dating from 1798 to 1932, and the Hatch Mill located ..

The list includes sites in the West Milton area such as the Pioneer Paper Mill, built before 1853, but abandoned in the 1930s, and the Kesselring site, established in 1948. Blodgett said she plans to soon have the inventory accessible to town residents wanting to brush up on their local history. "It's been done before in different resource forms, but now we have it on one list for quick reference," said Blodgett ''We hope to eventually have it all online." A peek at town history Along the Kayaderosseras Creek, the town was crossed by Native American trails used for hunting and fishing in the rich lands of the "Crooked Stream."

Paper mills dominated, but there were also cotton mills, foundries, tanneries and leather factories, wheel shops, lumber and cabinetry mills, and limestone quarries and kilns in addition to the saw mills, grist mills, and blacksmith shops set up when the settlers first came. Communities including Rock City Falls, West Milton, Milton Center, Craneville, Factory Village, Bloodville and Rowland's Hollow were clustered in the mill areas where churches, schools, stores, hotels and boarding houses were situated.

After the opening of the Erie Canal in 1825, the entire AlbanyI Arbor Hill area grew rapidly, thanks to a thriving lumbering business at the terminus of 1;he canal. In 1848, Thomas Worth Olcott purchased the mansion and his descendants resided there until 1948 when they deeded the structure to theACRA to insure its preservation as a historic • housel By DICK BUYER news@spotlightnews.com A , bottle <if wine discovered in 1970 by archaeologists in Albany's Ten Broeck Mansion and later sold at an auction generated sufficient funds to preserve the structure for future generations, according to Sue Kastan, executive director of the Albany County Historical Association (ACRA), owner of the historical dwelling. Today, the Ten Broeck Mansion in Albany offers visitors a view of a home representing the elegant lifestyle of a rich Dutch clan in the late 1700 to 1800s. It was built in 1798 and called "Prospecf' because of its commanding view of the Hudson River. It was built as a retirement home for the Ten Broecks, a prominent family of the era. Abraham Ten 'Broeck served the city, state and country in various roles during Albany's Colonial years. :-Ie was a military commander during the Revolutonary War: Albany's mayor from 1779 to 1798; a state senator; jt:.dge; ar;d first presideDt of the Bank of Albany and the city's publk library. Priorto his marriage in :'763, Abraham was an aJ:prentice in business with his brother-in- law, Robert Livingston, famous in his own right. "He married Elizabeth, nee Van Rensselaer," said Kastan, "and in 1748, they built the house on 5 acres ofland outside the city leased from his wife's family who were patroons." Elizabeth's parents lived in the Van Rensselaer Manor House located north of Albany along today's Broadway. The couple had two daughters and one son. One of the women married and moved to Stillwater, and her sister remained a spinster.. By the 1800s, said Kastan, in addition to the couple and their children, 10 black slaves also lived in the house. By 1810, Elizabeth had released six. Ten Broeck died in 1810 and Elizabeth, three years later. There were several owners of the mansion after that. Originally, the mansion was constructed in the Federal style, rectangular museum open to the public. The Olcotts -father and son - collected wines, which included a rare variety of French Bordeaux wines plus varietals from extinct grapes, lost to blight. In 1970, one valuable wine bottle was discovered - the one that provided sufficient funds to repair the roof and the 18th -century brickwork. On a tour, visitors can observe 13 rooms on three floors, plus three bathrooms and granite fixtures. Kastan said the mansion's fine furnishings reflect the style and the best of local craftsmanship that would have been found in homes of wealthy families in mid-19th century. In a sense, viewing portraits of some members of the Ten Broeck clan and other notables of the time period done by local artists of the era, provides a dose of realistic ambience to any visit. A tour of the mansion enables a visitor to sense the life and furniture of a prospero.lS family during the city's Colonial period. For information about tours, call 436-9826. Beginning in May, the regular tour schedule is Thursdays and Fridays, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Saturdays and Sundays 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults; $4 for seniors and students; and $3 for children 12 and under.

The Eagles defeated Ballston Spa 14-6 last Monday to assure themselves a .500 Suburban Council record and a spot in the class AA playoffs, which begin Thursday. "I have everybody ready to go Thursday," said Bethlehem coach Rob Helm. "We'll get the pitching. We just have to play defense and score some runs." The Eagles will find out Wednesday who their first·round opponent will be, though they have been working the phones to get an idea which team they will face. "We don'tkoowyet because we have to see where Queensbury fits in," said Helm. "We think they will take one of the Big 10 spots, so depending on which spot they take, we'll have to see where everyone else falls in." Bethlehem (7-7 league, 99 overall) had been in siinilar positions two of the previous three seasons, only to come up short by one win. In 2004 and 2006, the Eagles lost their final two league games tq finish 6-8. Bethlehem made certain there would be no suspense this year. The Eagles had one of their best offensive games in last Monday's win, with Matt Nash and Raody Bowers leading the way with two hits apiece. Things fell apart for Bethlehem in last Tuesday's 8-3 loss to Averill Park. The Eagles committed five errors and didn't have much pop at the plate, other than a solo home run from Nash. "Averill Park went out there and beat us," said Helm. Bethlehem finished the regular season with a pair of nonleague games against Ballston Spa Monday and Troy Tuesday. Helm said he's using the games to get his team warmed up for what he perceives as a wide-open Sectional field. ''There's one team that has stood out, and thafs Guilderland. And to teU you the truth, anyone can beat Guilderland," said Helm. • Junior Eagles Adyenture Camp Summer Fun for Campers entering 1st, 2nd & 3rd grades • June 25 - August 31, 2007 • Lunch ~ Snacks Provided • Open 7 AM - 6 PM • Field Trips • Red Cross Swinuning Lessons • Small Group Size - 24 Campers • Partial-week schedule available For Information Call: 463-8091 Junior Eagles Adventure Camp 397 Rt. 9W, Glenmont, NY 12077 (At the Comer of Feura Bush Road) Operated by Bethlehem Preschool, Jnc. D Success (From Page 46) Having played the game, Gait had a unique perspective on what worked on the field. "It allowed me to understand the features of the products and the performance· benefits associated," he said. "That's something we use everyday and we incorporate into the way we develop the product. I'm not about cosmetics, I'm not about 'me too' products. I'm about trying to develop unique performance ,benefits that are new for the consumer or uniquely different from my competition." The innovations Gait and his company have come up with deBeer has eight patents and 20 patents pending - are generally subtle. One of his most recent innovations is a palmless glove that improves a player's hold on the lacrosse stick. "Most players would wear gloves on the field, but they'd take them off as soon as they got off the field or started tossing the ball around in the backyard," Gait said. Gait was nearly born with a lacrosse stick in his hands. Growing up in Victoria, British Columbia, he and his twin brother Gary picked up the sport when they were young. By the time they reached Syracuse University in 1987, they had already developed an on-field rapport unlike any seen in the United States. "We actually developed a lot of our skills together practicing with each other, and a lot of our creative ideas were developed by us putting our heads together and trying to be deceptive," said Gait. "The nice thing was we could try out our ideas on each other. You can't prove that something works when you're practicing alone. By having each other, we could prove our ideas because one of us would be able to play defense on the other." The twins continued playing together off and on after graduating Syracuse. The final go-around came in 2005 when Paul joined Gary for th" National Lacrosse League's Colorado Mammoth's final five games. "It made playiog easier because it would be like playing on the same team for 30 years. You're going to koowyour fellow player's habits, and I certainly knew Gary's tendencies and· habits," said Gait. . Since settling down in upstate New York, Gait has tracked lacrosse's growth in the United States and is pleased with its progress. "The last 20 yeHs, the average growth in participation is 10 percent," said Gait. "It's also spread out regionally. The Northeast now represents 70 percent of participation, with the other 30 percent spread out across the rest of the country. But (Northeast participation) was a lot closer to 80 percent 20 years ago __" With more American children picking up lacrosse sticks, Gait said ifs important that his company pursues that demographic. "We gear our equipment really toward the 8- to 15-yearold lacrosse player. That's the time in a kid's lacrosse career that you can sway his mind on what brand he's going to continue to play with, especially at the varsity level," he said. Gait's strategy has worked well. His company is No.1 in the United States for women's lacrosse equipment sales and No. 3 in men's lacrosse equipment sales. . D Stars current Section II stars to its men's and women's lacrosse teams next year including Guilderland's Nikki Branchini and Bethlehem's MattJohnson and Tee Ladouceur. That's the most Section II seniors I can remember committing to one Division I school. Our region still lags far behind central New York, Long Island, northern New Jersey and Maryland in producing Division I talent, but the gap is beginning to narrow. And as more Section II players step into starring roles, you can bet more college lacrosse coaches are going to spend time recruiting around here. At least, we have some area players to keep an eye on this weekend at the NCAA championships in Baltimore. That's something we haven't always had, but it's something that could become a trend in the future. "We're probably the fastest growing of all the manufacturers, except for maybe some of the upstarts," said Gait. And with lacrosse's continued growth - both in the Capital District and nationally - Gait's company has the chance to continue growing. "Lacrosse has grown steadily, and I don't see it slowing down," he said.

Sports Spotlight • Paul Gait displays some of his lacrosse gear allhe Guilderland headquarters of J deBeer and Son Manufacturers. The success story continues One half of famous lacrosse duo guides local company By ROB JONAS jonasr@spotlightnews.com Paul Gait made a career out of being an innovative lacrosse player. Now, he's making a living as an innovative lacrosse equipment manufacturer. Gait is in his third year as president of J. deBeer and Son in Guilderland, where his Gait line of lacrosse equipment is created. "It's something I've always wanted to do, and when 1finished (playing) at Syracuse University, 1 kind of set that as my goal," said Gait "I had always tinkered with my lacrosse equipment - my lacrosse (stick) heads and gloves - so 1 knew 1 enjoyed to do that" Gait is no newcomer to the industry. He started selling lacrosse equipment the day he graduated from Syracuse in 1990, and he's been designing sticks, pads and other gear for deBeer since 1996. All the while, Gait played professionally in the indoor National Lacrosse League, as well as helping the Canadian national team win outdoor world championships in 1990, 1994, 1998 and 2002. He retired from professional lacrosse in 2005. "I don't miss it like a lot of people think 1 would because 1 get to work with it every day," said Gait, a United States Lacrosse Hall ofFamer. "Plus, 1played a lot 1 played more than 95 percent of lacrosse players out there. 1 kind of got it out of my system." Gait's first introduction to deBeer was when he met former president Jim Muhlfelder in 1994,shortly after leaving SIX and starting his own lacrosse eqnipment store ill Syracuse. . "He was just starting up a product line," Gait said "He was explaining his business - he was a baseball/softball company, and they were moving away from baseball/softball and just getting started in this lacrosse thing. They started by producing the first high-strength lacrosse handle, which was really popular at the time. And in some of our conversations, he had expressed about how he was looking to expand the line and develop protective equipment and lacrosse heads along the way. "That got me to thinking, here he ~as looking for someone with lacrosse expertise, and given my playing expertise and my desire to get involved in the R&D (research and development) side, it just worked out" Gait worked out of his home in Syracuse for the first eight years of his relationship with deBeer, but moved to the Capital District when he succeeded Muhlfelder in 2004. "I enjoy working with the people here," said Gait ''Working with a group that challenges themselves, I'm a big believer in that We tend to be understaffed for the amount of business we do, which 1 like. It puts a lot of pressure on our employees, and they usually step up and answer the call." o Success Page 44 Section II stars shine on national stage The University atAlbanymen's lacrosse team may no longer be involved in the NCAA playoffs, but the Albany area still has a vested interest in the tournament Four Section II graduates - Cornell's Casey Lewis (Shenendehowa), Johns Hopkins' Mark Bryan (Niskayuna) and Delaware's Noah Fossner and Phil Rollins (both Niskayuna) - are still playing for the national title.

There is also a distinction' between youth programs, typically sponsored by municipalities or other nonprofit groups, and interscholastic athletic programs offered by area school districts. New York State Public High School Athletic Association Executive "Director Nina Van Erk said schools included in the association provide an emphasis on what she calls the "four Cs." "Character, civility, citizenship and competence," said Van Erk. "I would add a fifth ... commitment." . The association is focused on children in grades seven through 12, and, Van Erk said, students are competing under the guidance of school administrators and certified coaches. 'We don't try to promote a positive atmosphere. We do promote a positive atmosphere," she said. "Our programs should not be to win at all costs." . Like Svare, Van Erk encourages a focus on teaching the fundamentals. "Kids should not be taught to esteem themselves based on the scoreboard," said Randy By ANN MARIE FRENCH news@spotlightnews.com As the weather warms, schools have begun their' spring athletic programs and many area towns have started their own youth programs designed to introduce kids to a variety of sports. Participation in sports has long been regarded as an easy way for children to stay active and fit, and there are benefits that extend beyond the physical exertion. "Sports are wonderful lifebuilding kinds of experiences," said Bruce Svare, a psychology professor with the University at Albany as well as the director of the National Institute for Sports Reform. 'They can be a very positive outlet for kids." Experts say the key to reaping that valuable experience lies with the coaches and parents who must ensure that a child is participating in an environment designed to bring out his or her best. Svare said sometimes involving kids in sports can actually occur too' early. "Four years old is a time for kids to be exploring," he said. D Example (From Page 1) to put it into perspective. Camardo said she makes it a point to have the children learn that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but either way you do it together as a team. "Children need to see their parents feel proud of them no matter what their role is on the team," said Camardo. Affiong parents with kids in sports a common theme seems to be, "enjoy it while they are still young." Smiles and laughter are usually dominant on any given Tball field, and mothers, like Christina Carras of Guilderland, say at that level you do not see too much competitiveness in parents, but, Carras said, it does creep up quickly. She also said it is important for parents to remember that many coaches are simply volunteers. They are often parents with full-time jobs and families, in addition to coaching. 'When I hear parents complain about how a coach is doing his or her job, I get frustrated. Parents need to remember these are just people helping out, doing their best," s.aid Carras. Carras also said she makes it a point to remind her son Andrew, who is on his first year of all-star Little League baseball team, that he is part of an entire team. "I tell my son that they win as a team and lose as a team, everyone is in it together," said Carras. 0 Teaching by example There are plenty of stories about parents who show a lack of sportsmanship themselves, like the hockey dad in Worchester, Mass., who in 2000, beat up the coach after a dispute over a son's play time. It sounds almost too absurd to be true, but it is an example of o how an athlete's parent can go from being supportive to being a bully. In theory, being on an athletic team, in a club, or in the marching band are all supposed to be facets of a child's life, a way to make them feel part of something. . Mohonasen School Athletic Director Joseph Scalice said the school tries to be clear about expectations by holding a meeting for parents and athletes at the beginning of each season. At that time, they discuss rules and procedures. "One area that I do talk about is sportsmanship. I will meet with a spectator or 'athlete if I feel their actions are unsportsmanlike and are a negative reflection of our school. We discuss what is expected of them as a spectator or an athlete," said Scalise. Taking turns Gregg Dort, of Ballston Spa, has coached T-ball, youth so-ccer and Pop Warner football. Having been involved with sports his entire life, he said his philosophy is all kids share ·equal playing time and all kids play every position. He said his stance is sometimes unpopular with other coaches and some parents. "I take great pride in showing my players that they all deserve a chance to play, regardless of opinions from other teams and coaches. I spend time dUring the off-hours making charts and tracking players' time and positions to insure that all my players have played in every position and have shared the game time equally," said Dort. Dort said he has had parents ask questions like, 'Why did you put little Johnnie in as quarterback, we think he is too small." His answer is always, "He deserves to play, and if that child gets excited about playing this year and wants to play again next year, then I will have done my job." "Smiles are always better Cale, a Clifton Park psychologist who hosts the Web site www.terrificparenting.com. "Only a small percent are going to be superstars." "Kids can have a great experience to the extent that we are clear about the value of effort over outcome," added Cale. Indeed, Van Erk s)lggests that while student athletes will build leadership skills, those skills translate into team-building skills. "A child may not be the best, but might be the most integral part of the team," said Van Erk. In basketball, the child who scores the basket would not·be able to do so without the help of a child whO makes the assist. In additi<,m to ieadership and team-building skills, children learn ethics, sportsmanship, fair play and how to be a good winner, said Svare. "Sports is about having fun, about play, about socializing and learning some skills," said Svare. Cale and Svare said developing a positive experience for children in sports falls to the parents.. Both encourage parents to really examine the organization that they are considering involving their child in and make sure the focus is placed on the appropriate values. "It is important when parents begin to participate, they choose carefully the atmosphere," said Cale. Experts say parents should encourage children to participate in a wide variety of sports as well as different positions within the same sport. Too often, said Svare, children appear to excel at a particular sport and are encouraged to take on that sport as a specialty. He said that often children reach puberty . and are able to excel at athletic skills they once did not. "Kids at an early age should be sampling lots of different . sports," said Svare. "Up to the age of 13, kids should be getting involved in a lot of different activities including those that are not sports related. ... Sports at ·the youth level are really about building better people." . . than wins," said Dort. . not before it is too late. support one another, whether Dort said the greatest comAthletic director for Burnt it's the members of their own pliment to him as a coach is Hills-Ballston Lake schools teams or athletes on other when parents thank him for Robert McGuire echoed the teams.
