The County Health Rankings place Clinton County in the bottom quarter of counties in New York State on the measure of access to physical activity. One-quarter of residents report being physically inactive, which contributes to the high rates of obesity among children and adults in the county. Recent population-based health improvement initiatives have focused on increasing residents’ physical activity levels. In 2017, NYSHealth awarded The Foundation of Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital (CVPH) a grant to develop a portion of the Saranac River trail, the Lapierre Lane Riverway, to increase physical activity and outdoor recreation opportunities for community members. Under this grant, CVPH will partner with the Town of Plattsburg and other local businesses to extend the Saranac River Trail Greenway and develop the Lapierre Lane Riverway. Situated along the shores of the Saranac River, the Riverway will offer access to water for kayaking; a deck for fishing; a healing garden; a nature-inspired playground; physical activity stations for senior citizens; and a loop trail for walking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, jogging, and biking. It will also include markers for historical facts and local flora, fauna, and fish species along the waterway, as well as offer environmental programming that will be provided to local schools. By providing year-round, low-cost opportunities for physical activity, the Lapierre Lane Riverway also ensures that low-income residents have access to these resources. The Riverway is accessible by public transportation and within walking distance to a low-income senior housing development. Following the development of the Riverway, CVPH will publish a "How To" document to guide other rural New York communities in creating public spaces that encourage residents to be physically active. |

Attorney Drew Palcsik received his Juris Doctorate from Northeastern University and had been practicing law since 1998.

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.
