Eventually, all keen gardeners are asked the inevitable question: why spend so much time weeding, pl anting, digging and doing all those other backbreaking jobs? The answer is simple and hard to deny: gardenin g is an enjoyable pastime, good for our health and for our environment which, you have to admit, is in great need of our help these days.

Recent studies are conclusive; those who garden have better control of day-to-day stress which affec ts so many people nowadays. A Canadian researcher, who no doubt loves to play with words, has said that it isn’t just plants which grow in our gardens. There is also self-esteem, optimism, friendship, creativity, satisfaction, etc. This scientist could have added patience to the list, as well as the humility learnt from plant s which take longer to give good results despite all our loving, tender care. On a physical level, gardening is a lso a great way of keeping in shape, on condition that we don’t insist on lifting and carrying objects which are too heavy for us.

It should also be mentioned that gardening helps us to communicate. Plant enthusiasts know how impor tant it is to talk to other gardening fans in order to learn about new horticultural trends or to discover n ew tricks. You have to admit that gardening is an excellent pretext for opening doors of communication and expandin g your circle of friends.

As far as the environment is concerned, there are numerous advantages to being a gardening fan. Firs t of all, plants produce oxygen as well as absorbing carbon dioxide, a subject which preoccupies more and more of our politicians. Clearly, plants help to reduce atmospheric pollution by attracting, primarily to their leaves, dust, ashes, pollen and other particles circulating in the air. So it’s not surprising that many hospitals are now giving more importance to plants.

Another advantage to our environment concerns temperature control. The presence of plants helps to l ower room temperature as well as helping to increase relative humidity levels and reduce heat in urban ce nters.

Various studies have also shown that plants help to reduce noise pollution. It is for this reason th at municipalities will now often plant walls of vegetation in neighborhoods bordering main roads. It ha s been demonstrated that foliage one meter thick growing vertically blocks 8 to 10 decibels.

Another important point to make is that plants improve water quality. How do they do this? By slowin g down surface water run off, plants allow the water to permeate the soil as well as helping to control flo oding and fighting erosion, a phenomenon which has become an increasing reality over the last few years with t he climate changes we are experiencing.

Finally, we must all recognize the fact that plants attract birds and other animal species. Encourag ing plant life is one way of maintaining biological diversity, not forgetting the pleasure which derives from observing the spectacle of the many bird species in our gardens.

Gardening is an enjoyable pastime which improves our health as well as our environment.

It isn’t all that long ago that garden centers could only offer us a very limited choice in perennia l plants; those plants which grow back every spring over a period of many years. Today, however, we have a huge rang e to choose from and every year dozens of new varieties are available to us.

Whether you are looking for perennials for sunny or shady corners, moist ground or sloping areas, ga rden centers will be able to supply all your needs in different sizes ranging from 10 cm to 2-liter pots. If you have the necessary budget, the larger size pots will allow your flower beds to bloom much sooner.

Unlike annual flowers, which must be planted every spring, perennials stay in the same spot for many years. This means that good planning is required before making any purchases. During the first years, it is better to have flower beds which are fairly empty rather than being obliged to eliminate certain plants during the second year because of overcrowding.

When the time comes to make your choices, think about limiting yourself in terms of colour. If you d on’t do this your flower bed will give the impression of looking very much like a pizza! A new trend in gard ening consists of creating contrasts with the foliage of your perennials. You should be aware of the fact that many perennials draw attention because of their foliage rather than their flowers. Two examples of this are the heuc hera and the hosta.

When planting perennials, it is important to mix some good compost and fertilizer into the soil in o rder for the plant to establish itself quickly. To avoid disappointment, you should position all the pots on the flowerbed in such a way as to be able to visualize the layout of the plants. This is a simple way of distributing them according to height at maturity, color, etc.

Once this task is completed, the soil should be kept moist for several weeks in order to help the pl ants establish themselves in their new home. You should also keep the flower bed free of weeds, removing them as they appear.

If you love tall perennials, such as delphiniums, it is important to support them with tutors so the y will not be damaged on windy days.

As the gardening season is relatively short in most regions of Canada, not many gardeners like to cu t back their plants in the springtime. So, because we are eager to see the first flowers in bloom, we hesit ate to remove young shoots. However, gardeners should be aware that even though pinching the first shoots may dela y flowering slightly, the number of flowers you will see blossoming on your plants will certainly make up for it. The pinching method entails holding the young shoot between the thumb and index finger and snapping it o ff just above a leaf.

There are perennials for every type of garden, for sunny or shaded corners, for moist ground or for sloping areas.

PLATTSBURGH — It was more than ayear ago Alek Duprey’s father, RandyDuprey, succumbed to scleroderma, anautoimmune disease. And, though he’sonly 2 years old, Alek knows there’ssomething special about Sunday, June13.

“It’s dada’s walk,” he said.The walk which Alek referred to is the

second annual Scleroderma Walk inMemory of Randy Duprey. It was a yearago the first walk was held in Randy’smemory to raise money for The Sclero-derma Foundation. The event, organ-ized by Randy’s wife and Alek’s mother,Kate Duprey, raised nearly $15,000 forscleroderma research and raised aware-ness of the crippling disease.

“It’s a special day,” Duprey said of theevent. “It raises money for the founda-tion and it’s a day Alek knows is to keephis father ’s memory alive.”

The basic formula for this year ’s event

will remain the same, said Duprey. In ad-dition to the walk/run, the event will in-clude a bake sale, face painting, a 50/50drawing, and live entertainment.

“We’re going to have all the samethings as last year, because it was so suc-cessful, I didn’t want to change much,”said Duprey. “We just added a bouncehouse for the kids.”

A silent auction will return this year,featuring tickets to a New York Metsgame, a boy’s bicycle, gift certificatesand gift baskets.

“The items are just rolling in,” saidDuprey.

Participants will also receive a T-shirtand bag, with those raising $250 or morefor the foundation receiving a fleece sta-dium blanket.

Duprey said she’d like to see as manyparticipants or more this year. Lastyear ’s event saw 313 people walking forthe cause.

“This year, we have on-line registra-tion, and we’ve already got 39 peoplesigned up,” said Duprey. “We have a

Facebook page that has 178 confirmedguests and another 319 maybe showingup.”

Whatever it takes to bring more peo-ple in and raise money for The Sclero-derma Foundation, is what Duprey iswilling to do, she said. Especially con-sidering she recently learned scleroder-ma is now believed to be geneticallylinked in 1 in 100 cases.

“So, I have reason more than ever tofind a cure for this disease,” Duprey saidas she looked at her son. “I really hopewe can do as well for the foundation thisyear, if not, better. We just want to do thevery best we can for them.”

The June 13 walk will again be held atthe Beekmantown Town Hall Park, 571Spellman Road, beginning with registra-tion at 9 a.m., and the walk/run to beginat 10:15 a.m.

For more information about the walk,including how to make donations to-ward the event, visit Duprey’s Web siteat www.thedupreyfamily.blogspot.com.

PLATTSBURGH — In to-day’s world, roads are typical-ly more vehicle-friendly thanthey are for cyclists and pedes-trians. However, CompleteStreets is working to changethat.

The Clinton County HealthDepartment will be offeringtraining Wednesday, June 23,on the Complete Streets planfor safer communities for pedestrians and bicyclists.

According to CCHD public information officer Laurie Williams, the health department be-gan focusing on Complete Streets as a way of building a healthier community.

“We’re doing it by looking at permanent and sustainable change,” said Williams. “Thosepermanent, sustainable changes are through policy changes, system changes, and built envi-ronment changes.”

Complete Streets is a part of the built environment change as it can add sidewalks, bikelanes, more crossing opportunities, bus lanes, bus shelters, and more.

“It provides additional opportunities for increased physical activity in our communities,broadening it out so that people and their families can use a roadway,” Williams explained.

“Roadways are to be shared — by bikers, by pedestrians, by cars.”The training program will provide “planning strategies and ba-

sic design and maintenance principles used in pedestrian and bicy-cle-friendly communities,” according to a brochure from CompleteStreets. “Participants will also learn how to do a community assess-ment for walkability and bike-ability.”

Although the training program, which is free of charge, is aimedtoward local officials, planning board members and council mem-bers, Williams said others can attend as well.

“We certainly invite those to this training who have a real inter-est in biking and making our communities more walkable,” shesaid.

She also realizes it may be a burden for some officials to do thetraining during the workweek.

“We understand that these are volunteers, but this is very impor-tant,” Williams said.

“This is an opportunity to be a part of a process in Clinton Coun-ty to get residents healthier,” she added. “To help our residents tobe healthier. The more people that learn about it, the more theseconcepts and these changes become part of the social norm.”

Williams also said by implementing the Complete Streets pro-gram, it won’t necessarily mean changes for all current streets.

“What it will do is it will set up our streets in future development to be usable and biker-friendly, pedestrian-friendly as well as vehicle-friendly,” she said.

“Some of the current streets can [be changed],” Williams added. “You have to do what’sreasonable and affordable in the community.”

The training program, will be held from 8:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at CCHD, 133 Margaret St.,in the second floor meeting room. Registration is required by next Friday, June 11. There willbe another Complete Streets training program in Rouses Point, Wednesday, Sept. 22.

For more information about either session, call 565-4993.

LAKE PLACID — For 10 years,the United Way of the AdirondackRegion has helped raise moneyfor organizations in the tri-coun-ty area through a golf tournament.

However, the golf tournament,which will be held Thursday, June17, is not your typical tourna-ment.

When the tournament was cre-ated by Michael Mannix — formerexecutive director of then theUnited Way of Clinton and EssexCounties — the plan was to makeit a fundraising event with

celebrities.“He thought that this would be

something different by gettingOlympians,” explained UnitedWay administrative coordinatorKathy Snow. “It puts a differentspin on it.”

Teams of three people sign upfor the tournament and either anOlympian or a local celebrity willbe the fourth player.

“It’s a fun event,” said Snow.Registration for the day begins

at 8 a.m., with tee off time at 10a.m. However, there’s more to theday than just golf.

Players begin with a continen-tal breakfast and end the day witha barbecue. Throughout the dayprizes are given out as well as tro-phies.

“They have money holes, thelongest drive award, the closest tothe pin,” Snow explained.“There’s two trophies that are giv-en out for first place net and first

place gross.”One of the trophies is in memo-

ry of Mannix, while the other is inmemory of Jack Shea — a formerOlympian.

“He was a double gold-medalwinner speedskater in LakePlacid,” explained Snow.

The prizes and awards giventhroughout the day are to encour-age people to join the tournament,which averages $12,000 in pro-ceeds.

“It goes for a good cause,”Snow said. “The whole proceedsgoes to help the United Way andthe partner agencies.”

To register for the golf classic orto become a sponsor, visit theUnited Way office at 45 TomMiller Road, call 563-0028, or vis-it www.unitedwayadk.org. Thecost is $500 for a team of three,which includes greens fees, cart,free raffle gifts, and breakfast anddinner.

PLATTSBURGH — Motion of theOcean is making some waves.

The alternative rock and metalband — which consists of StaceySenecal on vocals, Travis Lauten-schuetz and Adam Bruno on guitar,Joey Gillespie on drums and vocals,and Bryan Lacy on bass — formedin late 2009. Lautenschuetz hadbeen recording with Bruno's oldband, and both became interestedin forming a band together.

“So, when Adam's band dis-banded, we got down to businessand just tried finding the bestgroup of musicians that we couldfind,” said Lautenschuetz.

The first step was finding adrummer. After going througha few people, Lautenschuetzsuggested an old friend, JoeyGillespie, who he went to highschool with.

“When we first got together andjammed, we clicked instantly,” Lautenschuetzsaid.

The next step was to find a bassist. Gillespiesuggested his cousin, Bryan Lacy, to fill in onbass.

“I said to Joey that we could try him out, andonce again we clicked,” said Lautenschuetz.

All that was left was to find a vocalist.Though the original plan was for Bruno to takeon the task, he wasn’t what the band envi-

sioned and the search was on to bring in some-one else.

That person was Stacey Senecal.“The majority of the local music scene con-sisted of male vocalists, and we knew right

from the start that we wanted toseparate ourselves from otherbands up here,” said Lautenschuetz.“We tried her out, and at the firstpractice we knew that we wanted tokeep her, and so we did.”

The band’s first show was last No-vember at the Oraja Hooka Lounge onBrinkerhoff Street, just weeks before itclosed.

“I will never forget it,” said Lauten-schuetz. “The place was packed fullfront to back and you could barelymove.”

Since then, the band has developed alarge fan base through shows in the cityat Olive Ridley's and Coffee Camp, Cock-tails in Morrisonville and various base-ment shows around the North Country.

March was an especially good month forMotion of the Ocean. That was when theband took first place at the Olive Ridley’sRockin' Ridley's Battle of the Bands compe-tition. It was also when the band releasedtheir self-produced debut album, “Page Dri-

ve,” featuring five original songs.They’ve kept the momentum going by book-

ing shows like ones at this year ’s Relay forLife, Clinton County Fair and at HigherGround in Burlington, Vt.

“It feels great to know that you're playingon a stage where so many great musicians haveplayed,” Lautenschuetz said of HigherGround. “Both national and international actshave passed through those doors, and it's re-ally an awesome feeling.”

The band’s many musical influences —which include Rise Against, Rage Against theMachine Slipknot, A Day to Remember, andEpica, among others — is what Senecal saidleads them to play“such a wide variety of mu-sic that its hard to stand by one genre.”

“What I love the most about [Motion of theOcean] is that we can play with both sides ofthe local spectrum,” she said. “From black anddeath metal to hardcore to pop rock, we havea song that fits each. We like to focus on theheavy stuff mostly.”

“I think what sets us apart is our ability todo anything we set our mind to,” she added.

(Editor’s Note: Motion of the Ocean will be play-ing this Friday, June 4, at Coffee Camp on MargaretStreet. The show begins at 7 p.m. and include per-formances from Sink or Swim and Bright Light Mo-tion. The cost is $5 at the door. Check out the bandon Facebook, MySpace and YouTube by searchingkeyword “Motion of the Ocean.” The band will alsoperform at this year’s Relay for Life at the ClintonCounty Fairgrounds in Morrisonville June 18-19.)
