End Distracted Driving
Mar. 27, 2018 7:30 a.m.
Attorney Drew Palcsik received his Juris Doctorate from Northeastern University and had been practicing law since 1998. He initially received his Masters of Social Work and decided the best way he could advocate for the injured, was to become a lawyer and help them navigate the legal system. Drew is the father of three sons, Owen, Lucas, and Julian. Drew lives in Middlebury, VT where he enjoys skiing, cycling, and running with his sons.
Drew began offering the End Distracted Driving presentation after hearing the presentation's creator, Joel Feldman, speak about losing his daughter Casey to a distracted driver at the age of 21. Drew has reached over 1,000 youth and adults over the past year and a half. It is his goal to prevent anyone from being injured or killed by careless driving behaviors.

Stem Cell Therepy
May 22, 2018 7:30 a.m.
native of France, Dr Bonnabesse completed a Scientific studies at the University of St-Jerome in Marseilles where he receives an associate degree in Science (DEUG). He then moved to Burlington, Vermont, where he completed a bachelor’s degree in Zoology and Chemistry. He then obtained his Doctor of Medicine Diploma in 1996 from the University of Vermont. Afterward, he successfully completed a 4 year residency in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University Medical Center of Loma Linda in Southern California. Dr. Bonnabesse, then, went on to complete an Interventional Pain and Spine Fellowship in Colton, California, which he successfully completed in 2002. Dr Bonnabesse maintains dual Board certification in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation through the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and his Pain Certification through the American Board of Medical Specialties.
After the birth of their first child, Dr Bonnabesse and his wife returned to the North East, and in 2004 , Dr. Bonnabesse founded Champlain Spine and Pain Management in Plattsburgh. Since then, the practice has grown from one provider to 5 providers. In 2009, Dr Bonnabesse moved its practice to their brand new state of the art medical building to offer better comfort to their patients, and ease of care with on-site XR and ultrasound guided treatments. Dr Bonnabesse also created, 9 years ago, an interventional pain fellowship, which has allowed him to teach his interventional techniques to many physicians from across the country. Dr Bonnabesse’s philosophy, when it comes to his specialty, is that “there is no gain in pain”, and what he enjoys the most about his work, is to be able to improve his patient’s quality of life: “there is nothing more satisfying that to enable a woman to be able to carry her child or grand-child without excruciating pain, to allow a person to keep their job or to enable an outdoor person to return to his or her hobby. It is extremely gratifying to know that, at the end of the day, someone will able to sleep through the night without being awakened by pain”. At the end of the day it is really about making a positive difference in someone’s life”. Dr. Bonnabesse enjoys spending his free time with his family which includes his wife, 2 children, and 3 dogs. He really enjoys the outdoors, and the beauty of our region. He has also been a competitive tennis player for over 35 years playing at the regional and national levels, both in France and in the US. He also enjoys international food and foreign languages. |

Jun. 30, 2018 8:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
Schneider & Palcsik is partnering with the Town of Plattsburgh from 8am-11:30am to offer a free bike rodeo. We are looking for volunteers for our booths that teach the basics: how to fit a helmet, how to check your bike before you ride, and how to signal a turn. We are making it more interactive than a traditional Bike Rode by offering some on-bike crash avoidance menuvers along with how to scan, signal and turn smoothly while riding. It is our hope to get more people to ride their bike, but with proper education so people stay safe.
We are currently looking for volunteers for the booths. We will provide all of the educational materials before the event so volunteers can feel confident about what they will teach. |

Local edibles
Jul. 10, 2018
While growing up in Plattsburgh, Jane Desotelle helped her parents raise and sell gladioli and berries from their garden. This experience and visits to her grandmother’s large garden in Ohio fostered in Jane an intense appreciation for plants. As a young woman, she sold vegetables and set out to learn everything she could about the traditional uses of herbs. When friends kept asking for the herbal tea mixes she made, Jane decided to found her company, Underwood Herbs, to reach a wider audience. Long before the current interest in “eating local,” Jane advocated for farmers markets and built her business through direct contact with her customers. All of Jane’s products are made from sustainably-harvested wild plants. At the end of summer, Jane begins cutting balsam boughs for the hundreds of traditional holiday wreaths she makes and sells each December. Recognizing that development projects often destroy wild plants, Jane has started a botanical sanctuary at her home, where she has been able to coax fruit out of such finicky plants as May apples. |

Mini Project with Alliance for Positive Health - Opioid Crisis
Jul. 17, 2018 7:30 a.m.
Diana Aguglia, the Director of the Alliance for Positive Health in Plattsburgh, plays an active role in SPARCC efforts. APH does needle exchange. They also provide services for prevention and support of people living with HIV/AIDS. The APH makes kits that they distribute. Diana will talk about the opioid crisis and then we will use 30 minutes for making kits. With 25 people making simple kits for 30 m we could put together a lot of them. Learn More: http://www.allianceforpositivehealth.org
From Tom D.: Diana can speak to the opioid crisis in a meaningful way. She can explain what SPARCC is and all that SPARCC is doing to bring organizations together to combat the opioid crisis in our community as well as educate our community to reduce the stigma of addition. She can also bring a list of ways our club could partner with SPARCC and further their efforts in an incredible way. SPARCC is a coalition of community service groups. With the backing of a motivated volunteer organization, SPARCC could really ascend into the premier regional resource for the opioid crisis Some of the statistics are staggering. For example, there have been approximately 187 successful overdose reversals using NARCAN kits supplied by Alliance for Positive Health since 2015. That would have been nearly 200 additional deaths associated with heroin in just the past few years! I also believe that our club would love the opportunity to volunteer and help an organization like the Alliance for Positive Health. By having part of our meeting be a volunteer opportunity (assembling kits) our club could make an immediate impact and not have to find time outside of our morning meeting. We are all busy and have a number of commitments. Bringing the volunteering to our members during a meeting is a great idea!

Speakers
Welcome Remarks Laurie Williams
Foundation of CVPH Kerry Haley
NYS Health Foundation Bronwyn Starr
Town of Plattsburgh Supervisor Michael Cashman
Saranac River Greenway Trail Board Member Sara Rowden
Closing Remarks Laurie Williams
Background: LaPierre Lane Riverway is the first completed spur of the Saranac River Greenway Trail. It is an important piece of the Clinton County and Town of Plattsburgh Lake Champlain and Saranac River Waterfront Revitalization plan. The project also supports the University of VT Health Network at CVPH and the Clinton County Health Departments Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). Part of the CHIP plans mission is to provide permanent and sustainable opportunities to reduce chronic disease among our residents that include physical activity for all ages and abilities.
Every effort was made to provide nontraditional physical activity opportunities for all ages and abilities. The project also successfully merged the environmental attributes of a wetlands eco-system with public use. The Town of Plattsburgh will assume stewardship of this public/private partnership for future generations to enjoy and value. |
