Mohican Area Growth Foundation works to secure grant for more bike paths

LOUDONVILLE — The Mohican Area Growth Foundation wants to connect the Loudonville Mohican Bike Path to Mohican State Park.

Right now, the path ends on the west side of State Route 3, meaning if trail users want to continue to Mohican State Park, they must cross State Route 3.

Councilmember Matt Armstrong said the MAGF is working through options to secure funding to expand the bike path at Loudonville’s Village Council meeting Sept. 2.

Armstrong is vice president of MAGF.

He said the first option is to partner with the American Electric Power Foundation to create a shared utility and multi-use trail corridor.

AEP is building new transmission lines on the east side of State Route 3. Officials believe the transmission line corridor right-of-way would make adequate space to accompany a bike trail.

Armstrong said this option is promising because AEP will have to clear the area of trees to create a path for the power lines, which means most of MAGF’s work will involve paving.

In a document attached to the meeting agenda, MAGF said this trail option would span roughly three-quarters of a mile and cost an estimated $765,000.

But Amrstrong said the most promising option would be to work with Mohican State Park to designate the path a special project.

The designation allows Mohican State Park to secure additional funding so the park does not have to dip into its general fund.

Armstrong said the park’s cable bridge is an example of a special project. It was funded through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

MAGF previously worked with Mohican State Park’s manager to get right-of-way on the park land and applied for ODNR’s Clean Ohio Trails Fund grant.

The grant is designed for local governments and park districts to apply, not for state-owned land, so…

Munsee

Native heroes fought and died for the American revolution. Their sacrifices couldn’t protect them.

Tribal leaders hoped that by providing crucial support, they might earn favor with colonial leaders and secure protection for their remaining territory.

But their sacrifices were not enough. In the generations that followed, the Stockbridge-Munsee were dispossessed of their homelands and pushed westward — first into New York, then into Wisconsin.

As the United States marks 250 years since its founding, the country still struggles to remember the Native people who fought to bring it into being.

Today, the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohicans are working to change that. In Massachusetts, the tribe recently reclaimed several hundred acres of ancestral land, including part of Monument Mountain. In the town of Stockbridge, a joint commission now works to foster ties between tribal members and local residents. And in Wisconsin, the Mohican Veterans carry two Eagle Staffs — one traditional, one commemorative — to honor Native soldiers who fought in every American war since the Revolution.

“We did what we could because it is in our blood to be a warrior and defend what was justly ours,” said Robert Little, commander of the Mohican Veterans. “But after helping the American colonies for their cause, we were treated with such greed. Our land was swindled out from under us.”

Other Native American tribes also participated in the American Revolution. Some allied with the revolutionaries, others with the British, and still others fractured internally — divided by kinship, geography, and the grim calculus of survival.

Jonathan Lane, executive director of Revolution 250, said the anniversary has spurred historians and institutions to confront the long-overlooked role of Native peoples.

“It is astounding when you learn, for instance, that more than 150 Indigenous people participated in the Siege of Boston,” he said. “The Mashpee Wampanoag sent 25 men off to war, and I think only one came…

Nanticoke Tribe overcomes fundraising woes, gears up for annual powwow

Why Should Delaware Care? 
While the Sussex County-based Nanticoke Indian Tribe faced fundraising setbacks this past month, the Tribe has bounced back and appears to be flourishing ahead of its annual powwow and new cultural center renovations. This momentum for the Delaware tribe stands out amid federal funding cuts for tribal organizations. 

Preparations for the upcoming Nanticoke Indian Tribe powwow – an annual event celebrating the tribe’s culture and traditions that draws more than 10,000 attendees – were not all smooth sailing for the tribe. Just three weeks out from the event, scheduled for Sept. 6 and 7, the Sussex County-based tribe was facing a $30,000 funding shortage. 

Within 10 days of launching a GoFundMe campaign to close that gap, however, more than 130 community members came together to donate the additional money the group needed to fully carry out the annual event. 

Make sense of the decisions shaping Delaware.

Now, between the flurry of community financial support and the tribe breaking ground on a new community center last week, Nanticoke Assistant Chief Farrah Norwood-Stigall said members of the tribe are feeling the forward momentum heading into their 47th annual powwow. 

“We’re totally excited,” Norwood-Stigall said. “I like to say the powwow is pretty much a living classroom for people.”

Slated to be held at Hudson Fields in Milton on Sept. 6-7, the two-day powwow will feature dancing, drum circles, church services, and an all-around effort to educate people about Native American culture, Norwood-Stigall said.

Calamity Hour Tops Pocono’s Monday Card

Sophomore filly Calamity Hour overcame a very difficult first-over trip to take the $21,233 conditioned pacing distaff feature in 1:52.1 on Monday afternoon, Sept. 1 at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania.

Favoured in the headline contest, Calamity Hour waited in fourth early as chief rival Odds On Aces Full (Matt Kakaley) passed the first three poles in :27.3, :57 and 1:25.3 while in front. The daughter of Huntsville-Also Encouraging started an uncovered move down the backstretch, quickly reached the pacesetter and then grinded away inexorably and worked by the game leader late while posting a 1-1/4-length decision. Odds On Aces Full stayed for second and Papis Opinion (Jack Pelling) was third.

Deborah Daguet trains Calamity Hour for Donald MacRae of Vernon Bridge, P.E.I., and her own Daguet Racing LLC. Calamity Hour was driven by Anthony Napolitano, who had a total of four victories on the day to lead the horsemen, including wins in all three of the claiming handicap trots. (Two of those winners are trained by Anthony Faulkner, the only conditioning doubler on the day.)

The feature was for “non-winners of five races” company; there were also three $20,548 contests for horses in the basic “non-winners of four races” bracket. In the section for male pacers, the Always B Miki-Benear gelding Laugh Shop streaked to his third win in his last four starts in 1:50.4, with potential pocket rocket Chief Bogo (Ridge Warren) staying close but still finishing 1-1/2 lengths shy in a :27.3 last quarter.  Matt Kakaley drove Laugh Shop for trainer Jill Wine and the partnership of Samuel Abdoo and Wine Stable.

Simon Allard, himself a three-time winner on the day, drove both of the trotting co-feature winners, both of them clocking a 1:55 mile. The Braggart-Marisa Hall gelding Last Of Braggert (spelling verified) paid…

Haldimand leaders push local priorities at provincial AMO conference

HALDIMAND—All six of Haldimand’s ward councillors joined Mayor Shelley Ann Bentley and MPP Bobbi Ann Brady at this year’s Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) conference in Ottawa from August 17 to 20.

OTTAWA—Mayor Shelley Ann Bentley, MPP Bobbi Ann Brady, and Councillor Brad Adams discussed critical infrastructure issues like the Argyle St. bridge with Transportation Minister Prabmeet Singh Sarkaria.

Brady took part in all six County delegations at the conference:

  • Ministry of Health – more support needed for the development of an age-friendly Haldimand
  • Ministry of Energy and Mines – opportunities to support Ontario’s clean energy goals
  • Ministry of Economic Development and Job Creation – infrastructure needs for the employment lands in Nanticoke and Caledonia
  • Ministry of Indigenous Affairs – the need for provincial direction in developing a meaningful, legally and culturally appropriate Indigenous consultation framework
  • Ministry of Long Term Care – the expansion of Edgewater Gardens and the critical need for more LTC options
  • Ministry of Children, Community, and Social Services – the need for funding to address social service gaps in rural and Indigenous communities

Bentley said, “Attending AMO is an important opportunity to connect with provincial leaders and advocate for the needs and priorities of our residents. … Direct, face-to-face meetings help us build relationships, highlight important local issues, and work toward solutions that will improve the quality of life for everyone who calls Haldimand home.”

In a message to The Press afterwards, Brady said, “We were able to reiterate our desperation on having shovels in the ground at Edgewater Gardens and attempt to pinpoint why the project is not moving forward. Mayor Bentley and I were also able to sit down with Energy Minister Stephen Lecce to discuss the desire for an energy project in Nanticoke.”

She…
