            Empire State Development announced today that Beta Technologies received a $20 million state grant to help with the $41 million expansion of their technology campus at Plattsburgh International Airport. Beta Technologies is a aerospace industry leader and an important asset to the North Country’s transportation manufacturing sector.

            “Congratulations to Beta Technologies!” said Assemblyman Billy Jones (D-Chateaugay Lake). “Beta Technologies is at the cutting edge of electric aerospace engineering, and, remarkably, this technology is manufactured right here in the North Country. After attending meetings with the Beta Technologies team and State and County officials, I am confident that this funding will not only continue to expand the manufacturing transportation sector but will also create jobs and more opportunities for young students in the region through their partnership with CV-TEC to be at the forefront of these new technologies. Beta Technologies is a major player in aerospace technology, and I want to thank Clinton County for securing this funding.”

Event to benefit CVPH Nursing scholarships

PLATTSBURGH, NY (11/29/2023) – Residents are invited to run for a good Claus as part of the first-ever Santa Dash 5K Run/Walk. The event is being held on Saturday, December 9^th at Valcour Brewing Company in partnership with Adirondack Coast Events, with an 11:00 a.m. race start time.

Proceeds will go toward scholarships supporting nurses at The University of Vermont Health Network-Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital (CVPH) who are seeking to further their education and grow professionally.

“Part of being a nurse requires us to always learn and look for ways to provide even better care for our patients,” CVPH Director of Nursing Research and Clinical Practice Abby Bennett, MSN, MBA, RN says. “Taking part in this event is a fun way to help care for your community.”

Bennett adds that money raised from the Santa Dash will help nurses take additional classes, pursue certifications, attend conferences and conduct research.

“All of those opportunities mean our nurses can ensure that the best evidence-based practices are in place at our hospital while providing care at the highest levels of their license. And that leads to a better patient experience the moment you come to us,” Bennett says. “We are very appreciative of the support from our community, and we can’t wait for a sea of Santas to hit the course around Valcour Brewing.”

Participants are encouraged to dress in their favorite, family friendly, and festive Santa outfits – while also keeping the cold weather in mind. Santa hats will be handed out to the first 50 registered individuals.

Additionally, there will be a toy collection at the event, with all toys being donated to the Clinton County Christmas Bureau. Anyone interested in donating is encouraged to bring a brand new, unwrapped and unopened toy. The Christmas Bureau says it is especially in need of toys for teenage boys.

Registration is $25 per person and can be completed online at the Adirondack Coast Events website. You can also register in person on the day of the race starting at 10:30 a.m.

CEO David Neeleman “We fly to places that other people don’t fly”
