LAKE GEORGE — The Warren County supervisor with the longest tenure in recent history has decided he’s ready to step down.

Lake George Supervisor Louis Tessier, who’s been elected 14 times to public office in Louis Tessier Lake George, has decided not to run again in November for another term.

Tessier revealed his intentions this week.

“I’ll be 81 years old in July, and after 26 years in office, it’s time for a younger person to take over,” he said. “I want to do some other things in my life.”

Tessier was elected to the Lake George Town Board in 1981, and he was elected town supervisor in 1983. Since his entry into politics, he’s won 14 consecutive elections.

Tessier served as chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors from 1996 to 2000, after a five-year stint as county budget officer.

Tessier identified his major accomplishment during his tenure as lining up support to build the Scoville Learning Center at Adirondack Community College, against nearly overwhelming political opposition.

Supervisors were concerned about longterm debt, but he engineered an agreement between Warren and Washington counties to pay cash for the building, which became a centerpiece of the ACC campus, and a center of student activity. At that time, the county had an unexpended reserve funds of $16.5 million, many times the level now. It was built in 1997.

Tessier also was a strong advocate for tourism as well as fiscal responsibility. At the town level, he successfully worked to consolidate town and village services to save taxpayer money. Also, he worked to modernize the Diamond Point water system.

Recently, he’s been a staunch advocate of

Americade rally draws large crowds

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Recent months’ economic news didn’t substantially dampen attendance at this past week’s Americade motorcycle rally, government and event officials said Tuesday.

The mother of all touring motorcycle rallies was too much of a draw and has a loyal following that’s not deterred by angst over the nation’s economic woes, they said.

Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said that

REAL ESTATE

BODY SHOP & SERVICE CENTER “Quality Service at a Fair Price Since 1982”

LAKE GEORGE — The phrases of God Bless America, sung by Dave Studnicky of North Creek echoed off the cliffs atop Prospect Mountain during the 40th annual P.O.W. /M.I.A. Ceremony held Sunday.

U.S. Army Reserve Sgt. Bruce Sears, guest speaker for the event, gave a crisp salute to the American flag as it was lowered to half-staff in honor of our nation’s soldiers missing in action or held as prisoners of war.

A North Creek resident, Sears has recently returned from Iraq after his second tour of duty in the Mideast.

Sears told the dozens of veterans and citizens attending of how Abraham Lincoln had called for a rebirth of liberty, relating it to the soldiers whose fate is still unknown.

“We cherish freedom, and we cannot forget that these brave people were born out of sacrifice, bravery and devotion to a purpose larger than self,” he said. “By our gathering here, we have shown we have not forgotten you.”

Sears said that while serving in

Americade, which is estimated to bring in an average of $46 million annually to area businesses and residents, was nearly as strong as ever.

“Americade week is undoubtedly the largest week of the entire summer season, in numbers and in revenue,” he said, estimating this year ’s crowd was down 8 percent or so from recent years, which set records.

Those area businesses surveyed Monday reported strong revenue for this year ’s event. Most echoed Blais’ estimates, while others said they’d had their best crowds and

“We’re certainly very fortunate to have such a well-run rally as Americade, that folks want to come back to, year after year,” Blais said. “I speak to hundreds of attendees, and they repeatedly praise Americade’s organization and activities.”

Americade organizer Bill Dutcher also said he was happy with the turnout, and that a late surge of day-trippers made up for an expected decline in pre-registrants.

Regional quadricentennial map to promote upper Hudson River Region

By Jon Alexander jonathan@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — A proposed map of the Upper Hudson River region has gained support with local governments, as many area towns and two county boards have pledged funds for its printing and distribution.

The tourist map, the brainchild of former Warren County Tourism Department staffer Pam Morin, is designed to promote the Hudson River region stretching from the Saratoga County town of Halfmoon to Hamilton County’s Lake Tear of the Clouds.

Featuring the area’s natural attractions with a historical flair, the map focuses on this year's quadricentennial of the discovery of the Hudson River by explorer Henry Hudson.

The map will include information on certain businesses in each community as well as historical places and points of interest, she said.

A similar map depicting the lower stretches of the Hudson River has already been published. Promoting towns

along the Hudson from New York City to Albany, the map has served as a prototype for the upper Hudson map that Morin has been developing.

“Planning and marketing along the Hudson is very strong in the southern part of the state,” Morin said. “Every town which sits along the Hudson will be represented.”

Morin said that towns of Lake Luzerne, Lake George, Warrensburg, Chester and Hague have already donated $3,000 to the project for printing and production costs which are slated to begin this coming September. This past week, Johnsburg contributed $1,500 to the cause.

Numerous additional towns have pledged funds.

“This is not a chamber project. All the money collected goes to the map,” North Warren Chamber of Commerce President Greg Beckler said. “The North Warren Chamber would simply act as home base.”

The North Warren Chamber of Commerce has been championing the Upper Hudson regional map since its inception.

Morin has said that no donations are being sought from private entities, but individual chambers of commerce would have to decide which businesses were represented on the map.

“There obviously isn't enough room for each and every business,” she said. “That would be something the local chambers would have to decide.”

This revelation has caused some concern among local officials.

“If Marsha's makes it and the Copperfield doesn't, I could see some tension arising over something like this,” Johnsburg Supervisor Sterling Goodspeed said June 2.

The first edition is set to be released in early October and it could be as many as 75,000 copies, Morin said.

CHESTERTOWN — A regional contingent of the We the People 2009 Continental Congress will be meeting for the first time on June 18 at Dynamite Hill recreation area off state Rte. 8.

Group members said they would be discussing political corruption in Albany and what steps are being taken by the We the People organization in attempting to alleviate the problem. We the People is is a nonpartisan group with no interest in political party affiliations, the representative said, citing that the group’s main focus is to make people aware of citizens’ rights under the U.S. Constitution.

WCS administrator leaves position for larger district

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The financial executive of the Warrensburg Central School District has resigned to take a similar position at Hudson Falls Central School District.

Kevin Polunci, business manager at Warrensburg Central for the past three years, said Monday he was leaving his post as of June 30.

“My tenure in Warrensburg was an excellent experience and I thoroughly enjoyed working with the faculty and staff,” he said. “But taking on the position in Hudson Falls is an advancement, obviously, to my career.”

Hudson Falls has about 2,400 students enrolled and an operating budget of about $39.5 million, contrasted to about 850 students and an operating budget of $19.3 million at Warrensburg Central.

Polunci’s annually salary will be $98,000 at Hudson Falls, a boost from his $89,000 at Warrensburg. Just last year, his salary had been hiked at Warrensburg Central from $74,000.

Polunci said his major accomplishment during his tenure at Warrensburg Central was establishing new procedures and policies in the district according to state law.

When he arrived in the District, it had been cited by the state Comptroller ’s office in a 2005 official audit with 11 discrepancies, and correcting those

shortcomings was a main undertaking of his for months.

Polunci tightened cash-handling controls and increased record-keeping practices, district officials said. He also separated various duties to prevent potential problems, and realigned budgetary accounting so fewer financial emergencies would arise after the budget was drafted.

Polunci, 33 years old, also dealt with delivering education in Warrensburg with tightened resources. This past year, he and the school board teamed up to cut the 2009-10 budget by $181,905 for the upcoming year, or a 0.94 percent decrease. The result was a resounding budget approval by a vote of 607 to 173 among District voters, a margin unmatched in recent history.

Prior to his stint in Warrensburg, Polunci was a state aid planning specialist for a large BOCES district in the Capital Region. Before that, he was a business administrator intern at Stillwater Central, a role he took on at the age of 24.

Warrensburg school district officials said this experience served Polunci well.

“In setting up additional finance and cash controls, Kevin has brought our school district into a new era,” Warrensburg Superintendent of Schools Tim Lawson said Tuesday. “He’ll be sorely missed, and very difficult to replace.”

Monday the school board appointed

“

I’ll be 81 years old in July, and after 26 years in office, it’s time for a younger person to take over. I want to do some other things in my life

”

— Lou Tessier refurbishing the Gaslight Village buildings, against formidable opposition, for use as festival and event headquarters.

He has said the buildings would attract events and festivals, boosting tourism in the area.

Recently, he’s been grooming his ally town councilman Frank McCoy as a viable candidate as town Supervisor.

McCoy isn’t likely to run unchallenged.

Others are seeking the post, apparently. Names mentioned around town, or those interviewed by the town Republican Committee for candidacy, include village entrepreneur John Carr, Jamie Green, former councilman George McGowan, Tom McKinney, and Fran Heinrich.

Tessier was known to respond to the needs of his constituents, particularly the elderly, Warren County Administrator Hal Payne said Tuesday.

“He’s been a strong advocate for his constituents,” Payne said. “Whether it’s from his town or across the county, he’s made decisions with their benefit in mind,” Payne said noting that Tessier focused on health care and tourism.

Tessier was diagnosed with prostate cancer last summer, and he underwent radiation treatments, which he completed eight months ago. He said Sunday that health considerations weren’t what prompted him to retire from his post.

“I’m ready to spend time with my grandchildren,” he said.

Iraq, he had been stationed at Camp Spiker, named for Michael Spiker, a serviceman who was the first soldier of the conflict to be listed as missing in action. The daily respects that other soldiers paid him daily, brought meaning to their mission, he said.

“POWs and MIAs touch our lives every day, but we may not know it,” Sears said.

Sears recalled how he looked up to fellow local resident Joe Miner, who’d been a prisoner of war, and came home to North Creek to serve as a firefighter and scout leader.

Sears noted with pride that he was now following in Miner ’s footsteps, serving as a firefighter and leader of the same scout troop.

The Johnsburg High School Band, 90 pieces strong, offered several patriotic selections for the ceremony.

About half the participants in the mountaintop ceremony were motorcyclists, who were invited to be involved for the second consecutive year by North Creek Legionnaire Terry Waterston, who has organized the Prospect Mountain POW-MIA ceremony for 18 years.

Wearing their club “colors” emblazoned on their leather jackets, the several dozen bikers had earlier led a two-wheeled procession to the summit to launch the event.

During the ceremony’s proceedings, the bikers, representing the Patriot Guard, Legion Guard and Red Knights motorcycle groups, stood at attention holding large American flags, as they had in their thunderous parade up the mountain.

Holding one of the flags in the lineup, biker Don Amorosi said he had joined the ceremony to show families of missing soldiers that they will always be remembered.

“I don’t care if you’re on two wheels, four wheels or 18 wheels, participating in an event like this is terribly important in raising the visibility of the POW-MIA issue,” he said. “We have an obligation to keep it in the forefront among Americans.”

After the ceremony, participants and spectators socialized were presented with refreshments at the Lake George American Legion Post No. 374.

SATURDAY June 13, 2009

Rally From page 1 reported their best year ever for demonstration rides. They reported it was the most demonstration rides they had conducted ever at any rally, anywhere, Dutcher said.

While paid entries and attendance figures weren’t yet tallied, the parking lot next to the rally’s TourExpo hosted far more vehicles, and vendors were very happy with the heavy attendance, he said.

“Vendors were very, very pleased,” he said. “There were enormous crowds Saturday morning in particular.”

Dutcher said that while 2009 Americade attendance may have experienced a decline of several percentage points, other rallies nationally were down 35 percent or more, or had been cancelled.

He said Friday night’s Americade party held at the Great Escape was the largest ever.

“With the gloom and doom in the news, motorcyclists were particularly delighted to come out to Americade and just have fun, see old friends and enjoy themselves.”

Dimming the cheer for Blais and Dutcher, however, was the growing influence of the non-Americade bikers, who drive into town to pose as outlaws and raise a ruckus.

Early Saturday morning, some partyers tangled with county Sheriff ’s officers, leading to minor injuries among police.

Blais also said that vandalism was a problem, as 85 municipal trash cans, heaping with garbage, up and down Canada Street were overturned late Saturday night, causing a mess through the village.

Also, public rest room doors were kicked in, and flowers were yanked out of planters, Blais said.

“Some motorcyclists not connected with Americade come up here and create a lot of chaos on the streets, and it’s an unfortunate byproduct of having a motorcycle rally — what is otherwise a fabulous week for the community,” Blais said, noting “immense” crowds clogging the village Saturday.

But for bikers, whether true touring enthusiasts or not, the spectacle of the village streets hosting many thousands of bikers, many on bizarre and unique, customized vehicles, provided a remarkable show.

LAKE GEORGE • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 5

Motorcyclists in town for Americade take a look Sunday at a customized Kawasaki Hayabusa that includes nitrous oxide tanks for a power boost, custom suspension and artistically-designed chrome, fashioned in the theme of eagle claws. Onlookers estimated the bike might cost more than $120,000. Comparing rides and accessories and swapping stories are traditionally a favorite pastime at Americade, and this year was no different.

•100 Years Ago – June, 1909• Band of gypsies rolls through town

A

caravan of gypsy wanderers arrived in Warrensburgh on June 9, 1909 and were up to all of their old tricks by swapping horses and telling for-

tunes.

They make an easy living. The gypsy women, in gaudy apparel, read palms and the men doctor up their old plug horses to pass muster to the unwary. They seem to enjoy their simple life living in tents and wagons. The children are lithe of limb with clear eyes and pink cheeks and they are seldom sick. They play with their pet dogs and gather wild flowers from the field to sell for pennies.

When the band tires of one place, or are ordered to leave, they move on. “They fold their tents like the Arabs and silently steal away.”

‘Buffalo Bill’ Cody in Glens Falls show The world-renowned union of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show and Pawnee Bill’s Far East Show will be in Glens Falls June 18, 1909 and the excitement there is growing. In the Wild West segment, Col. William F. Cody, the last of the great scouts, will appear in the saddle on his famous white horse, Isham, at every performance, showing some remarkable exhibitions of expert horsemanship. (Note: William F. Cody got the name “Buffalo Bill” in 1867 when he was chief of scouts under General Crook and claimed to have killed 4,280 bison. He toured for many years with his Wild West show which made him an American legend. His later partnership with Gordon W. Lillie, known as “Pawnee Bill,” was not as successful. Cody was a close friend of “Bronco” Charley Miller of Glens Falls, who toured with him and the show for five years in America and Europe.)

Coroner called to investigate death Ruth Holcomb, the six-week-old girl baby of Mr. and Mrs. Asa Holcomb of Knowelhurst, Stony Creek area, was found dead in bed with her mother on Saturday morning, June 5, 1909. Coroner Dr. G.H. Aldrich of Creek Centre was sent to investigate the case and he decided that she was either accidentally smothered or strangled.

Matriarch of Smith family dies Maria Smith, 84, widow of the late Hon. Richard P. Smith, died June 27, 1909 at her home in South Horicon after a lingering illness and old age. She was a lifelong resi-

dent of Horicon and was well loved by all who knew her.

Burial was in the Chestertown Cemetery. (Note…Maria Smith raised a large and honorable family who prospered in Warrensburgh in many different business ventures, She was the grandmother of Frank Smith who was town Supervisor from 1926 until 1931 when he died while still in office. He spent little time behind his desk and was always on the road with his dog, “Bubbles” sitting on the car seat beside him, as he kept in touch with the voters who loved and supported him.)

News roundabout There was a frost on June 8, 1909. Now and than as the month wears on, some person or other has the temerity to wear a straw hat with hope in their heart. The Wilson-Root Co. store in Glens Falls has Knox straws for $4 each and also caps for the boys.

The Warrensburgh high school team gleefully defeated the Lake George Union team nine on the local baseball diamond, 12 to 0.

John Tubbs, editor of the Warrensburgh News, has a fine old violin for sale. It has a sweet, strong tone, and is in first-class condition…$1,000. (Note: John Tubbs called his own special violin, “The Old Squire.” He loved his violin, according to his daughter, author Margaret Louise Tubbs.)

In Riparius, Louis Laprarie lost a horse. Fred Jenks is working for Charles Vilander at the new mill in Garnet.

Mrs. Louisa Rigney, of North Thurman, died of the grippe and advanced old age.

The condition of C. Fred Wheeler, who has suffered intensely from gallstones for three weeks at his home on Fourth Ave., Warrensburgh, is somewhat improved.

Wallace Scofield of West Stony Creek, who is quite elderly, was taken with hemorrhage of the head and bled constantly freely for nearly two days and nights. He is somewhat better.

William H. Faxon, of Chestertown, has opened up his graphite mine on Hague Mountain and he has built a new road into the mines.

The North Creek Electric Co. has its dam well under way with a fair prospect that electric lights will be installed there locally this coming fall.

L.W. Brooks is building a shanty near Seymour Stevens’ place at Knowelhurst — near Stony Creek — and expects to commence peeling hemlock bark for Ned Garnar and also for Finch, Pruyn, of Glens Falls. (Note…Hemlock bark, which contained tannic acid, was used extensively in making leather. When the hemlock tree supply was exhausted in the Adirondacks, the leather industry left the

region.)

Charles Baumaline has resumed his duties as chef at the Adirondack Hotel (now the site of Rite Aid Pharmacy) in Warrensburgh. Allie J. Pasco has leased the Loon Lake Inn in Chester.

Prisoner ingests poison, delays journey Anthony Chadwick, the Glens Falls criminal who apparently tried to kill his ex-lover with dynamite, attempted to end his life with poison and was dangerously ill in Plattsburgh. He was finally so recovered on June 2, 1909 that he was able to continue the journey to the Dannemora State Prison with jailers Adelbert Brown and Constable C.J. Buckley. (Note: Anthony Chadwick, a former Glens Falls special policeman, threw a dynamite bomb on Dec. 31, 1908 into a double tenement house on New Alley St. where his former paramour, Mrs. John Anderson lived. The lady wasn’t home at the time, but her little daughter was badly injured by flying glass.)

Bargain real estate offered S.B. Smith, Warrensburgh’s real estate and insurance dealer, has a “good little farm” less than three-quarters of a mile from town, 22 acres, a six- room house, poultry house, productive two-acre garden and nice, clean well water, all for $325. Listed also is a residence on lower River St. adjoining J.F. Cameron’s store, with nine rooms, a cellar, veranda, the house is in excellent condition, for $1,000. (Note…This latter house, next to the Milton Ave. bridge is still standing. My late husband, Mervin Hadden was born there in 1917. Cameron’s store was next door where the empty lot exists now, across from Curtis Lumber.)

Looking to the hereafter Many years ago. Orrin VanDusen of West Mountain, had two caskets made from a large oak tree which grew on his farm, in which the bodies of himself and his wife were to be placed for burial. On Wednesday, May 26, 1909, undertaker A.J. Woodard of Luzerne was called to the VanDusen homestead to take charge of the funeral of Mrs. VanDusen, 86 years old. Mr. VanDusen, 92, will join her when the time comes for his departure from this life. (Note: I have been to VanDusen Rd. in West Glens Fall, many times over the years and have often wondered about the origin of the name. My friend, Maurice Combs, whose family has strong ties to Thurman, has his business there.)

meal with chicken breasts this week, I know that because they were at their low price point last week, it will be about 3 months before I see them at that great price again. Last week, I bought enough chicken to last my family until they’re offered again at a low price.

But I didn’t pay $1.79/pound for my chicken. I paid $1.29/pound. I used a 50-cent coupon for each package I purchased, but the coupons I used weren’t offered in this week’s paper. The coupons I used were several months old – not expired, just older than this current week.

Now, if you currently use coupons, let me guess how you do it: Your Sunday newspaper arrives. You page through the coupon inserts, clipping out the items you want to buy this week … and you throw the insert away. But this is the No. 1 mistake most coupon users make.

Why is this a mistake? Grocery stores’ best sales rarely coincide with the week coupons for these items appear in the newspaper. The grocery store knows weeks in advance what coupons are coming out in the paper. They also know that most people who use coupons will cut them and use them the same week that they came in the newspaper. So, the grocery store will typically put some of the coupon products on sale – just not at their lowest price points. Shoppers will think they’re getting a deal, but the store has enticed you into purchasing at a higher price – even with your coupon. If you use your coupons when the chicken is on sale for $3.29/pound, you won’t have them anymore when the chicken’s price drops below the $2.00/pound mark

Dozens of customized tow trucks of all varieties and capacities were on display the weekend of May 30 during the annual Lake George Tow Show held on Fort William Henry Resort grounds. The high-tech rigs, most sporting wild paint jobs, flashy chrome and some with trick lighting, delighted browsers Saturday and Sunday. The event was sponsored by Eastern States Towing & Recovery Association.

Until next week, I’ll leave you with an exciting example of another reason you should save your coupons. Pairing a $1 coupon with a $1 sale results in free items! Now, you may be thinking, “Really? Is it that easy?” You be the judge.

By Jill Cataldo This week, pasta, cartons of lemonade, instant potatoes and toothbrushes were on sale at my store for $1 each. I redeemed a $1 coupon for each of those items, so they were free to me.

But in each case, the coupons I used came from inserts published weeks ago; a shopper wouldn’t find them in the current week’s inserts. Shoppers who clip coupons the old-fashioned way might not have needed a toothbrush three months ago, when the $1-off coupon ran in the paper. So, they threw the insert away. Super-Couponers keep their inserts. They understand that the coupons inside may provide them with the chance to land a free item in the future.

Why throw away money? © CTW Features

ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 7 STAIRS GOT YOU DOWN? YOU NEED A STAIRLIFT!

McHugh picked for Secretary of the Army

By Jon Alexander jonathan@denpubs.com WASHINGTON — Local Congressman Rep. John M. McHugh, R-Pierrepont Manor, was tapped by President Barack Obama for the cabinet level Secretary of the Army vacancy June 2. If confirmed, McHugh would not only add another member of the GOP to the Democratic President's cabinet, but would also result in a vacancy in yet another upstate congressional seat.

McHugh is the ranking Republican on the House Armed Services Committee and represents New York’s 23rd Congressional District which includes most of the Adirondack region including all or parts of Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton and St. Lawrence counties.

His district includes the city of Plattsburgh, as well as

communities surrounding the Army installation, Fort Drum.

“It is his service over the past 16 years in Congress as a champion for our men and women in uniform that uniquely qualifies him to lead our army,” Obama said at a White House press conference June 2. “Just ask the soldiers he has always fought for in his district at Fort Drum.”

If confirmed, McHugh would give Bush Administration hold-over Secretary of Defense Robert Gates another moderate GOP voice at the Pentagon.

“John is committed to keeping America's Army the best trained and the best supplied for many years,” Obama said. “John knows that we must reform the way the Pentagon does business — as Secretary he will lead our push to save taxpayers millions of

dollars.”

For his part, McHugh feels the job transcends party politics.

“Although we have our political differences, at the end of the day, Republican and Democrats will work for the common good,” McHugh said. “I am nothing more than the latest in a growing line of individuals of differing political persuasions who have been provided by President Obama the opportunity to head and answer to new important and challenging problems facing this country.”

McHugh's nomination continues the Obama Administration‘s practice of plucking moderate Republicans for cabinet-level seats.

Shortly after the news of McHugh’s nomination, area politicians praised the President’s choice.

“As a senator and assemblywoman, I have had the pleasure of working closely with Congressman John McHugh on many issues important to the North Country,” said state Sen. Elizabeth O’C. Little, R-Queensbury.

“He has always come through with help whenever I asked. I have valued our friendship as much as our professional relationship.

“Today’s news of his nomination as Secretary of the Army is very exciting,” Little continued. “While I am going to miss having him represent and serve our region, I am looking forward to seeing him serve our entire nation.

His credentials and his leadership ability are superb and I have no doubt in his ability to do a tremendous job.”

McHugh will likely begin the Senate confirmation process over the next week.

eports of a peacock in the neighborhood have been coming in — and we hear he’s often seen often in the roadways, so drive with care. This peacock also can fly and therefore he can get away from the people trying to catch this lovely bird. He has apparently been on the loose for about a week, scampering and parading from one location to another nearby homestead. As of the last report, he had traveled about three miles to a farm that just happens to have another peacock - the female of the species, Maybe the strutting male bird has found a home at last.

During the May 31 power outage, did any readers have to walk like I did years ago to a nearby brook to get a pail of water? The high winds and fallen trees left us in the dark for only about four -and-a-half hours, and of course our water pumps were silent, cutting off our water supply.

Are you spending the summer in Thurman? Do you leave us in the cold weather? How about writing down some of your thoughts, feelings and experiences in our hometown. Such writings are welcome for the local Historical Quarterly, to share with others. Call 623-9305 or send the narratives or essays to 168 Garnet Lake Rd, Warrensburg, NY 12885.

Do any readers have wicker baskets of various sizes that they no longer want or have a use for? The Thurman Christmas Basket Committee will be in need of baskets this winter, so readers are asked to consider donating them.

Call Helen at 623-2909 to help out.

Personal news The Adirondack Good Sams Club hosted three local couples for an enjoyable a Memorial Day weekend at a park in Greenfield, Mass. Enjoying a weekend away were Fred and Shirley Wendling, Russ and Paula Hubert, and Vern and Joan Harris and daughter Dee. Russ Howe and his wife Nereide of Long Island said were honored when they were asked to attend and to be judges at the recent Lake George Elvis Festival. Russ himself was an Elvis impersonator singer a few years ago in our area. Their six-year-old son Ryan spent home quality time with his grandmother Geri Howe while his parents were judging. Their free time was spent at their Mud St. home in Thurman.

Get Well wishes go out to local residents Charlie Bills, Joe Mosher, Jackie Dingman, Irene Lamphier, Doreen Cooper, Pearl Cameron, and Bob Dibble.

Study: monied ‘Boomers’ drive area tourism Adirondack Pavement Chief complaints? Closed stores, black flies

By Jon Alexander jonathan@denpubs.com LONG LAKE — Financially endowed and aesthetically charged, baby boomers are the driving force behind the Adirondack tourist economy, according to a recent study conducted by the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA).

“We are looking at tourism as a means of viable economic development,” ANCA Executive Director Terry Martino said June 4. “We are moving forward with such research in order to help local communities market themselves.”

This Scenic Byways Market Assessment was based on a survey conducted in August and September 2008. It included a dozen open-ended questions seeking to determine why people come to the park and what they are looking for, Martino said.

It was released this week in conjunction with ANCA’s unveiling of the scenic thor-

oughfare website www.adirondackscenicbyways.org.

“What I found the most striking is that people have an interest in communities that border wilderness,” Martino said. “It seems that people value the interaction between nature and a community.”

According to the data, 32 percent of the 328 survey respondents said that it was their first time visiting the Adirondack Park. Over 70 percent indicated that they visit the region in general and are not looking for a specific community.

“It’s amazing how strong people's emotional connections are to the Park,” ANCA Marketing Consultant Susan Fuller said. “We found that the people who come here are world travelers who are willing to pay more for luxury.”

Fuller said that the primary Adirondack tourist demographic consists of “Baby Boomers,” or those in their 60s and early 70s.

“Boomers view travel as a

necessity instead of a luxury,” Fuller said. “They come to pursue their own interests.”

Adirondack tourists are monied, well traveled and looking for a wilderness experience and scenic vistas combined with cosmopolitan offerings like lectures and world-class hospitality, the survey findings report.

“One of the biggest complaints was people noticing that some businesses had already closed for the season — the other was black flies,” Fuller said. “The local business community needs to be looking to enhance their experience.”

Over 95 percent of respondents said that they were primarily interested in recreational opportunities.

ANCA has received roughly $320,000 in federal and state grants to develop and promote regional scenic byways. The site focuses on the Adirondack Trail Scenic Byway, the Central Adirondack Trail Scenic Byway — which passes through Long Lake — and the Olympic Scenic Byway.

“Byways are a way to get people to not only come to a particular place, but to explore our communities,” Fuller said. “84 million people live within a day’s drive of the Park and they are all great prospects for us.”

WARRENSBURG — A man characterized as the Good Samaritan of Warrensburg has been named Citizen of the Year by the Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce.

Retired teacher and local cemetery superintendent Peter Haggerty has been awarded the honor.

For years, Haggerty has been responding to the needs of others without being asked, quietly volunteering his time and talents to make lives brighter in town, Chamber President Lynn Smith said Monday.

“This guy is phenomenal — Peter helps people, families, kids, the elderly — by seeing a need and doing what needs to be done,” she said. “He runs errands, takes stuff to the dump for them, helps them move, tutors students whose parents can’t afford it, you name it.”

When told of the award, which is normally accompanied by a tribute banquet, Haggerty asked to remain out of the spotlight, Smith said. The two decided that the money that the Chamber would have spent on the affair be redirected to charity, Smith said.

“Peter is very down-to-earth, very low-key,” she said.

“He’s a genuine person.”

One of Haggerty’s four daughters, Lyn Haggerty, noted that her father and her mother Judy have taken in many people through the years into their household, providing room, board and friendship for people in transition or in tough situations.

“People who don’t have someplace to go end up living with my parents,” she said. “He’d say ‘If I can help some-

body, then that’s what I should do.”

Josie Baker of Warrensburg, was one of those taken into the Haggerty household and helped out immensely, she said this week. Years ago, Baker and her four young daughters were welcomed into the Haggerty home, and they were given a boost when they needed it, Baker recalled.

“They were gracious then, and they are gracious now, and we’ve been friends ever since,” she said. “Peter would do anything for anybody.”

Baker said Haggerty cuts wood and delivers it to those he knows need wood to keep warm in winter. Baker said she knew he routinely took care of a woman’s landscaping, and he shovels people out in winter, all without seeking compensation.

“Peter does a lot of odd jobs for people,” she said. “He’s there for anyone that needs him.”

At age 55, Haggerty retired in 1996 from a 30-year tenure as an Earth Science teacher at Hudson Falls High School.

Lynn Haggerty said her father and mother shun materialism, showing little interest in travel and possessions. Instead, their money goes to charity, she said.

Local resident Jean Hadden said that Haggerty showed up to help out after a fire tore through her home in 2003. Haggerty worked for weeks, helping her salvage her household goods and collected historical materials.

“Peter always has a ready, helping hand for those who need it, looking for no fanfare and expecting nothing in return,” she said, noting his humility. “He has cleared dead trees on my property, dug holes to plant new trees, sanded my dooryard in winter to prevent me from falling, and delivered meals to me on holidays.”

On and off since 1979, the Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce has chosen local people for the Citizen of the Year Award, recognizing their engagement in community affairs, their prominence in community development, or service to others.

Here’s a rundown of the prior Citizen of the Year award winners, according to the Chamber records: Kathy Quintal and Bunny Gonzales were jointly awarded in 2008 for enriching the lives of hundreds of area children. For Gonzales, it was her 22 years of year-round work on Operation Reindeer, by distributing food and toys to children in needy families at Christmas time. For Quintal, the award was prompted by her decades of work on behalf of a variety of local community organizations, primarily Girl Scouts, Little League, the local school booster club, and the Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce.

For 2007, Jan Higgins was awarded for her work in youth development through her decades of operating the Hobby Horse preschool, teaching youngsters about caring for others and the elements of social responsibility.

He helps maintain the United Methodist Church and has helped out painting for North Country Ministry’s outreach center. He also volunteers at the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History and delivers Meals on Wheels, Hadden said.

“He’s always ready to help, and in most cases, people don’t need to ask for assistance,” she said.

Citizens From page 10 Lenore Smith was awarded in 2006, primarily for her work — a lot of it hands-on effort — in buying up distressed properties and rehabilitating them into attractive residences and apartment houses. Her rehabilitation and stewardship of properties has been a substantial influence in beautifying the town.

In 2000, Andrew Sprague was awarded for his work in youth character development. Sprague worked for Warren County Cornell Cooperative Extension, mentoring a variety of youth groups. Sprague’s work leading wilderness expeditions was considered instrumental in building self-reliance and resourcefulness in hundreds of area youth.

Town Councilman and local ranch owner Austin Perry was awarded in 1996. He was instrumental in bringing affordable senior housing to town, as well as boosting medical services locally and in the southern Adirondacks through his work on behalf of Hudson Headwaters Health Network. He was also an effective advocate for seniors’ issues in the area.

Jerry Quintal, owner of famed Oscar ’s Meats in Warrensburg was awarded in 1995. Quintal was recognized for helping with Chamber projects and community events, as well as supporting various local charities. Quintal’s claim to fame in later years was his tenure as town supervisor from 1998 through 2005. During his terms, he launched the Warrensburg Industrial Park, initiated the town curfew and boosted police protection in town. Also, he was a leader locally in Internet marketing for Oscar ’s, familiarizing people internationally with Warrensburg.

In 1994, former Warren County Sheriff Fred Lamy was named Citizen of the Year. Lamy brought the county’s law enforcement agency into the modern age, computerizing its dispatch operations, bringing enhanced 911 services to the county, bringing high technology to law enforcement and many other critical accomplishments. Also, the Lake George police force was absorbed into the county Sheriff ’s Department during his tenure. For his work, he received many statewide awards and brought recognition to the county. He was appointed by Gov. Pataki in 1999 to serve on the state Commission of Correction, a tenure he completed last year.

In 1993, Jack Toney, owner of Jacob & Toney’s Meat Store of the North, was named Citizen of the Year. He has been a a silent backer of many high-profile efforts at the school and in community economic development, as well as being a mainstay of the business community. Also, he served as a director of Hudson Headwaters Health Network during its years of substantial expansion. All his community work didn’t take away from his time behind his store counter, personally serving customers and dispensing philosophy and

his political views.

James A. Baker, former director of the Warren County Office for the Aging, was the award winner in 1992. Due to his abiding concern for the elderly, Baker worked to expand the agency’s programs and outreach. Baker also has been a prominent lay minister, attending to other people’s spiritual needs and more worldly concerns, too.

In 1991, Lorraine Morey was named Citizen of the Year, primarily for her work with children and various charities.

For many years, she was a scout and 4H leader, and was active for 52 years in the work of the Warrensburg United Methodist Church, particularly in fundraisers. Her charitable work included raising money tirelessly for the Florence LaPoint’s community charities, primarily Operation Santa Claus.

In 1990, Louise Hall was awarded for her work, both in the outreach work of the United Method Church and her substantial service to youth as leader of Boy and Cub Scouts.

In 1989, Calvin and Jeannette Engle were awarded joint Citizens of the Year. Together, they operated Engle’s Dept.

Store, a retail landmark in town well into the 1980s. Cal was also immersed in the work of various community organizations, and he served as town supervisor from 1984 through 1987. During his tenure, the town launched the preliminary efforts to develop a sewer system and bring community planning to town.

In 1988 Mabel Tucker was awarded Citizen of the Year.

For decades, she was Town Historian, chronicling the towns events and its residents’ lives, and helping hundreds of people with genealogical research.

In 1987, Maurice Richards was awarded. He was recognized for his community service, primarily through a variety of civic organizations, including the local Masonic Lodge.

In 1986, the awardee was Jennie Cameron, librarian of the Richards Library in Warrensburg from the mid-1940s through 1990. Her work began as assistant librarian in the mid 1930s. Committed to service for the community, she instituted story hours and advocated for the library’s children's room addition in the 1960s, as well as its extensive renovation in 1970s. She and other librarians in the area helped launch the Southern Adirondack Library System, a regional media exchange network.

In 1985, Charles Hastings was named Citizen of the Year, primarily for his decades of tenure as a town official, including 20 years as town supervisor, serving between 1964 and 1984. Perhaps his most notable accomplishment was buying a grand home on Main St. to accommodate the town Senior Citizens Center.

In 1984, Steve Parisi received the award. At the time, he was awarded for his work organizing and promoting the Chamber ’s World’s Largest Garage Sale and other community work. Nowadays, as director of the Warrensburg Mu-

seum of Local History, Parisi is immersed in preserving and presenting Warrensburg’s bygone days. Parisi and others have devoted thousands of hours to preparing exhibits, artifacts and photographs, along with new interpretive signs and materials at the museum, set to reopen this summer. He is also a co-owner of a leading Bed and Breakfast operation.

In 1983, the entire Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. received the award. This organization was lauded for its extensive community service, through its longstanding sponsorship of holiday and family-oriented events, including visits with Santa, the town Halloween Parade and the Smokeeater ’s Jamboree. Their service also includes sponsoring dozens of teams and offering an array of scholarships. In recent years, they’ve taken their commitment further, sponsoring the local high school after-Prom party, holding the annual community Seniors Thanksgiving Dinner, sponsoring summer AAU basketball, and presenting the annual Sept. 11 Memorial Service, which grows in prominence and popularity each year.

In 1982, Jane LeCount won the Citizen of the Year award.

LeCount helped launch the World’s Largest Garage Sale, working tirelessly through the years and taking it to a level of national renown. She also has since the 1970s boosted this town through continual promotional work, besides being a local pillar in the real estate business regardless of market conditions. She also has been involved in a wide variety of community groups and charitable efforts.

In 1981, Florence LaPoint was named Citizen of the Year, and it was no surprise to any local resident. For decades, she and her mother worked for many months each year raising money for their Operation Santa Claus, then shopped for toys and clothes for area needy families, then spent countless hours wrapping the presents with other volunteers. She also operated a dance studio out of her home, and several generations of children learned dance routines from her. Lapoint’s Broadway-style dance recitals, with proceeds going to charity, filled the local gymnasium to capacity. Her chief vocation, however, was that of a teacher at Warrensburg Elementary, and in her classrooms, children learned about charity and caring for others as well as academics.

In 1980, Warrensburg’s Senior Citizens as a group received the Chamber ’s award, for the dozens of ways they individually donate their time to community service, as well as through the local Fifty-Plus group.

In 1979, Isabel Cornell received the Citizen of the Year award. Cornell founded the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History in the mid-1970s, then worked there for years, collecting artifacts and displaying them for the public’s enjoyment and edification. After her death in the 1980s, her husband carried on the tradition of operating the town museum.

Warrensburg Elementary student Lane Saville, 10, has won two feature races at Turkey Trot Raceway in Argyle, and he’s garnering more wins as the season progresses, his parents Kirsten and Kelly Saville said Monday.

Lane races in the Junior No. 1 Rookie class in a custom vehicle that weighs around 200 pounds.

Lane said his goal was to live up to the sticker on his helmet, which reads, “Second

place is not an option.”

Lane said Monday he was aiming to win as many of the 2009 season’s 17 remaining races as he could “I love to go as fast as I can,” he said.

Kirsten said she was proud of her son’s accomplishments, as it was his first year racing.

“Our generous sponsors make this possible,” she said.

Area businesses contributing to the cost and upkeep of Lane’s vehicle include Nemec’s Sport Shop, Warrensburg NAPA Auto Parts, Warrensburg Car Care, Oscar ’s Smoke House, Braley & Noxon Hardware, D.A. Collins, Kubricky Construction, and Adirondack Barbell.

BOLTON LANDING • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 13

Bolton art students garner recognition for work BOLTON LANDING — Several students from Bolton Central School received recognition recently for having their artwork chosen to be included in a regional juried art show.

Three Bolton High school students had their works chosen out of more than 1,200 entries in the Hyde Collection’s recent 18th annual Regional Juried High School Art Exhibition.

The exhibition is a yearly showcase of high school art students’ talent and creativity, allowing them to experience the preparation, submission, and jurying process, museum officials said.

The students submitting artwork for the 2009 competition hailed from 40 area schools spanning five counties.

The Bolton High School students whose artworks were chosen, are Sophomore Emma Cady, Junior Taylor Barrack, and Meredith Chamberlain.

Bolton Central Superintendent of Schools Raymond Ciccarelli said the school community was proud that these students were representing Bolton in the Hyde competition.

Their teacher is Amie O’Rourke.

The Hyde Collection’s Executive Director David F. Setford noted, “Year after year, area students impress us with the caliber of their work.”

Taking a break during a recent school day are Bolton Central Art Instructor Amie O'Rourke and her students, Emma Cady, Meredith Chamberlain and Taylor Barrack. These three students had their work included in The Hyde Museum’s recent annual prestigious juried student art exhibit.

Bolton’s prom-goers fought sleep as they enjoyed activities (Editor’s Note: Bolton Central’s recent postprom party was a success, with the community working together to provide fun and safe activities. The Bolton Parent-Teacher Organization organized the event, based on the generous sponsorship of a large number of businesses, organizations and individuals in Bolton. Sixty-two students attended the event, and school officials said they were encouraged by the enthusiasm and support the students demonstrated.. Laser Tag, go-carts, bumper cars and a rock-climbing wall were among the many activities available to students at the party’s headquarters, Adventure Racing of Queensbury.

A variety of prizes were raffled off, including a grand prize of a 27” flat-screen television. After the party, students were bussed back to the Bolton Firehouse where a pancake breakfast was served by the Fire Company’s Ladies Auxiliary.

BCS Junior Matt Peterson wrote the following narrative on his perspective of the evening.)

BOLTON LANDING — Arriving at Adventure Racing in Queensbury, soon after much dancing and socializing at the Sagamore Resort, Bolton prom-goers were unsure as to how actively they’d would be spending the next six hours. An hour or so later, laser tag, go-karts, and bumper cars began to become a somewhat repetitive process when, just in time, the availability of the rock wall provided a new frontier available for our entertainment. Thanks to the free pizza, sodas and cookies, we were all wired just enough to make it to 4 a.m. with minimum go-kart time lost to sleep, which was ever more alluring as each hour passed.

The incentive of free raffle prizes given out at the end of the party also managed to keep many people on their feet, whether they were fully conscious or not. Although we were kept entertained, at the end of the party, we all indeed desired one thing that could not come fast enough: sleep.

Bolton Central prom-goers have some sustenance to keep sleep at bay during their recent afterprom party at Adventure Racing, Queensbury, so they can log more hours of rock-wall climbing, gokart racing, bumper-car bashing and Laser-Tag blasting.

Angling: entertainment or threat?

S

It gets in your pores, man

S

everal of my childhood summers were spent at my grandparents’ fishing cabin, deep in the black-fly infested wilds of northern Quebec.

The experience was great not only for myself and the boatload of cousins who accompanied me, but also our parents who were able to ditch us for two months without the overhead of a traditional summer camp.

There were moose. There were bear. There was manbearpig. Well, not the real manbearpig, but we did have a neighbor named Lionel who resembled something between a heavyweight boxer and a fur coat.

He’d drink Canadian whiskey, laugh and slap our backs so hard you’d swear your eyes had popped clear out of your skull. Then, he’d mumble something in French Canadian, point and laugh some more.

At least we thought it was French Canadian. It could have been some booze-created dialect that required soaking the listener with tobacco-tainted spittle.

Either way we couldn’t make out a darn thing the manbearpig said. Which is probably how Gram wanted it. God forbid we returned to grade school the next year spewing French Canadian obscenities at our classmates through tobacco-tainted spittle.

As entertaining as we found old Lionel, however, nothing could top the never-ending string of pranks my cousins and I would play on one another to wallow away the hot summer days.

It seemed little was sacred and Gram — as long as no one got bruised or bloodied — would more-often-thannot applaud the creativity of the prankster and chide the gullibility of the prankee.

Perhaps my all-time favorite, however, was played out on my cousin, Mike, by my brother, Brian. The year was 1980 and the pair agreed to hike to a small pond directly behind camp.

Bored with the pace of the fishing, Brian decided to bet Mike $10 he couldn’t walk the length of a 30-foot log that hung precariously over the water.

Without hesitation, Mike said, “I could if I take off my shoes.”

Out he went, inch-by-inch, balancing himself with outstretched arms while delicately placing one bare foot before the other until he finally reached the spindly tip of the fallen tree.

“See,” Mike said triumphantly, spinning slowly to face where Brian stood watching. But, Brian was no longer there. Instead, he had taken up a perch at the other end of the log and began leaping up and down, causing Mike’s end to wabble like a teeter-totter.

“Aaaauuuggghhh,” Mike wailed and began running down the log toward safety. Two steps into the sprint, the realization hit he wasn’t going to make it and he launched himself toward shore — only to land in three feet of water and six feet of black pond muck.

When he emerged, he looked like a cross between a Siamese cat and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

I’m not sure where the Siamese cat analogy came from, but trust me, he looked really unsightly — and smelled even worse.

Ironically, Lionel’s camp contained one of the only indoor showers for miles, so, we stuffed Mike in and scrubbed him raw with common household cleaners.

I say ironically because one would not consider a device that aids in the pursuit of personal hygiene to top Lionel’s list of favored camp amenities. Or, even the common household cleaner part — but anyway, I digress.

Unfortunately, for Mike, black pond muck is like great soul music — it gets in your pores, man.

In fact, I saw him just last year at a family gathering and he still stunk a bit like wet socks in the rear of the family van.

I am kidding, of course. Great soul music doesn’t really get in your pores, man. Black pond muck, on the other hand, is like the International Paper waste treatment plant in mid-August. You can smell it from Quebec.

If it makes you feel any better, Mike — I spoke to Brian, and he’s got your $10.

Roe Pond tournament a big hit

By Brian Venne The 19th Annual Roe Pond Fishing Tournament for Kids was held on Saturday, May 30. The fishing was fast and furious and so were the bugs.

Plenty of large fish were lost, and no anglers were hooked.

A great day of fishing was had by all.

This years winners were: • Ages 2-4 Christopher Patterson at 2 pounds, 5 ounces.

• Ages 5-7 Matt Deihl at 1 pound, 15 ounces.

• Ages 8-10 Kadie Shelmicin at 2 pounds, 7 ounces (Lunker of the Day!), Matty McCray at 2 pounds, 6 ounces and McKenzie Peters at 2 pounds, 1 ounce.

• Ages 11-13 Cole Gaddor at 2 pounds, 6 ounces and Alex Lashway at 2 pounds.

• Ages 14-15 Unfortunately our Tournament Official has misplaced these winners as well as third place in ages 11-13.

I humbly apologize for not having them. My first senior moment!

All first place winners received cash, second and third place received poles and every angler received a bag of fishing lures.

Our 20th year will be in 2010 and we are hoping to make our 20th Annual Tournament a very memorable one. Please practice catch and release.

Remember Roe Pond is a Designated Childrens Fishing Pond. No adult fishing is allowed.

Please teach sportsmanship, for these young anglers will be our future leaders.

Thank you!

A very special Thank you to Steve Lamere and able Technician Chris. Without the Essex County Fish Hatchery there would be no Tournament for kids. You gentlemen do a tremendous job raising huge fish!

Thank you to Jamie Wilson our Highway Superintendent and dedicated employees of the Moriah Highway Department. You gentlemen are our un-sung hero's for your before the Tournament work.

A special thanks to Edward Roberts, Superintendent of Building and Grounds and Officer Arthur Brassard for handling the traffic. A very special thank you to Whitetails Unlimited for your gourmet hot dogs and soda, you make the Tournament a memorable event. To our Town Supervisor, Tom Scozzafava and Councilman Tony Harvish, Paul Salerno, Tom Anderson and Rick Carpenter for your support and not campaigning.

Thank you Tom Olcott for volunteering to drive the truck on our stocking spree. You don't talk much but you take up less room than Jamie. Thank you to Dain Venne for wearing hip-boots loading and unloading our fish. It's nice to see someone else getting cold and wet. Hope you come back next year. Thank you to Rose French for being our official Photographer. A very special thank you to our sponsors, without your generous donations our prizes would be very meager. Thank you Bezon’s Bait & Tackle, Norm’s Bait & Tackle, Adirondacks Whitetails Unlimited, Ballsom Hollow, Port Henry Service Center, Walts Propane, Harland Funeral Home, Black Ash Club, Back to Health Chiropractic, Port Henry Mobil, Boni's Bistro, Nephew Insurance, Adirondack Wireless, Mineville Oil, Grover Hills Deli, Mineville Pharmacy, Larrows Garage, Essex County Leathernecks, Boyeas Grocery& Deli, Salerno & Son Plumbing, Scozzafava Electric, Dick Curran Sr., Moriah Youth Sports Program, Feeder Club, Port Henry Pools and Stewarts for the coffee and doughnuts.

A special thank you to the guys who make it all happen, Joe (Coonrod) Rodriguez, Mike Aitner, Chip Perry Sr., Mike and Jason Vargo and Tom Langey. Without your dedication this Tournament would not be 19 years old. The Town of Moriah thanks you. Looking forward to #20.

port fishing is one of the most popular recreational pursuits available in this country. It is an activity that is shared by nearly one out of every three American citizens.

There are numerous opportunities to fish in every state. Angling is also a very economical recreational activity. After the purchase of a fishing license and an initial investment for a rod, reel and terminal tackle; most anglers can pursue the sport for less than $10 a day.

In today’s economy, that’s less expensive than it costs to go to a movie, the theater or a ball game.

And if anglers return home with their catch, the expenses of the day easily balance out. It’s fun, healthy and cheap entertainment with the added benefit of providing a good meal.

Fish makes an ideal human food. It’s nutritious, high in protein, minerals, vitamins and beneficial omega oils. Yet, it is also low in fat and cholesterol.

And fish are pursued outdoors, in the fresh air among wonderful settings. As a wise old angler once claimed, “Trout don’t live in no ugly places!”

Eating fish may even make you smarter and improve your performance on intellectual tests. Recent studies have revealed that eating fish actually speeds up brain waves and increases concentration. But if you are already fishing, you’re probably smart enough.

As a family activity, there are few opportunities that allow adults and children to participate on such equal footing. Angling is a pursuit that permits parents and children to equally share in the fun; despite the differences of age, size, strength or stamina.

For most North Country residents, convenient angling opportunities can usually be found within just a few mile of home. If you can hold a rod, you can fish.

Rock snot continues to spread Unfortunately, the greatest threat to our area fisheries continues to expand its reach. It has already reared its ugly head in the Champlain watershed.

Due to modern day transportation, anglers can easily fish a variety of rivers in the course of a day’s travel. It is alarming that just a single, traveling angler has the potential to infect a half dozen waters.

The NYSDEC has confirmed the presence of the invasive algae didymo (Didymosphenia geminata) on a number of major sportfishing rivers in New York state.

The algae, known to persist on the main Delaware River, as well as the East and West Branch, had also infected the Batten Kill. Most recently, it’s presence was confirmed in the Esopus Creek in Ulster County.

Currently, didymo is not known to be present in any other New York waterways, but it’s spread is certain to continue. There are no known methods for controlling or eradicating didymo once it infests a water body.

It has already devastated the trout streams of New Zealand, where it is considered a dangerous enough biosecurity threat that there is a penalty of up to 5 years in jail and $100,000 for knowingly spreading it.

Several rivers in Vermont and New Hampshire, including the upper Connecticut, the White River, Mad River and the Batten Kill are infested with the snot.

Unlike most aquatic invasive plants, didymo can grow on either flowing or still waters. It carpets stream bottoms with a thick, gooey carpet-like growth, thus it’s nickname.

In addition to making footing difficult, didymo can rapidly limit the abundance of bottom dwelling organisms, such as the crayfish, leeches and insects that provide fish with feed, such as caddis, stone and may flies.

Anglers, kayakers, canoeists, tubers, boaters and others engaging in water-based recreation can unknowingly spread didymo.

A single cell of the microscopic algae can cling to waders, boots, boats, clothing, lures, hooks, fishing line and other equipment, where it can remain viable for several weeks, even under seemingly dry conditions.

Absorbent items, such as felt-soled waders, wet suits, life jackets require thorough treatment. A single cell can last up to a month on flies, flyline or a spinning reel; just waiting to infest a new watershed.

While there is considerable uncertainty concerning didymo, the main area of agreement among fisheries biologists across the Northeast is that education and spread prevention is the best strategy.

Lessons from New Zealand make it quite clear that human anglers are the primary carriers, although it can be carried by birds, beaver, otter and other aquatic furbearers.

Since didymo can stay alive on gear for months, it is vitally important that anglers disinfect gear after use particularly, when traveling between fishing locations, even on different stretches of the same river.

The accepted practice is referred to as the “Check-Clean-Dry” approach. It entails checking gear to remove visible lumps, followed by cleaning and soaking all equipment in a 5 percent solution of detergent with water at least 140 degrees (1 cup mixed with a gallon of hot water) or in a 2 percent bleach solution. Then, dry the gear completely before storage.

Though it poses no real health risks, it can significantly compromise a river's value, and adversely affect an entire region's economy through a reduction in fisheries, tourism and even hydropower.

Just one angler can cause irreparable damage to an entire ecosystem; please don’t be the one.

Cancer benefit turns into community fundraiser

‘Community Conversation’ set for June 16 LAKE GEORGE -- Local adults and youth are invited to come together for a third “Community Conversation,” to discuss activities and facilities available for youth in the region. This meeting is expected to focus on the progress the community has made recently, and what needs to be done to continue the progress in the future.

The event will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Tuesday June 16, in the cafeteria at Lake George Junior-Senior High School. Refreshments will be served and child care will be provided.

This “Community Conversation” is a collaboration sponsored by various area agencies, the Lake George schools and the students themselves. Two previous meetings drew nearly 90 people each, and a group of Lake George students have been meeting weekly since September.

Topics for discussion include development of a skateboard park, a teen center, and perhaps a stronger connection with the Glens Falls YMCA, and new ideas for activities in town. For details, contact Bill Toscano at 746-2391 or by e-mail at btoscano@co.washington.ny .us .

NEW YORK — Representatives of Verizon Wireless announced the company’s plans last week to activate at least 10 new cell phone towers this summer across the North Country.

Verizon spokesman John O’Malley said the towers should be operating by the end of the year.

“We’re very excited about these various projects – they will be beneficial to the North Country,” he said.

O’Malley wouldn’t provide specifics on tower location. But he said the new projects will provide Verizon with 90 cell towers in the company's northern network, including 26 cell sites within the Adirondack Park.

Currently, the company has six applications pending with the Adirondack Park Agency. The list includes two towers in the Town of Wells and single towers in Westport, Duane, Wilmington and Queensbury.

One of the company’s goals has been to bring better service to the I-87 Northway. To date, Verizon Wireless has activated four of its planned 13 new sites to bring service to a previously uncovered stretch of the highway.

Marquett Smith, president of Verizon’s upstate region, said the new cell sites reflect the company’s commitment to providing reliable wireless service.

“We’ve taken the lead on expanding wireless service throughout the Adirondack region, both inside the park and outside,” Smith said. “We believe wireless service is essential to the people who live in the region.”

The new towers will provide increased cell phone service, as KEY: GF=Glens Falls; BL=Bolton; CHS=Chester; HA=Hague; HOR=Horicon; JBG=Johnsburg; well as access to Mobile Broadband, Verizon’s high-speed wire- LG=Lake George; LUZ=Lake Luzerne; QBY=Queensbury; SC=Stony Creek; THR=Thurman; and WBG= Warrensburg. less Internet service.

STONY CREEK — Last June a fundraiser took place at the Stony Creek Inn for owner Dot Bartell and husband John Fickel to help defray medical expenses from their battles with cancer. The event was a success, with outpourings of generosity in donations and volunteerism from the whole community, allowing for Dot and John to ease their journey to wellness, friends said.

In keeping with the spirit of that event, an annual fundraiser is planned to mark the anniversary. This year the event will take place on Saturday June 13, from 1 to 5 p.m., with a long lineup of regional bands performing.

Proceeds from the event will equally benefit Cindy’s Retreat and the SAM Fund.

Cindy’s Retreat is held twice annually at Silver Bay, on northern Lake George. The retreat enables women living with the stress of cancer to improve the quality of their lives. The SAM Fund provides emergency funds to Southern Adirondack Musicians and their families facing hardships due to illness and accidents.

There will be music, food, silent auction, and raffles at this fundraiser, set again at the Stony Creek Inn. A tentative lineup of performers includes Adrenaline Hayride, The Blue Billies, the Stony Creek Band, Johnny & the Triumphs, Kevin Maul, Tim Wechgelaer, and Nelson Rock. Those who can’t attend, checks can be made out to Cindy’s Retreat or The SAM Fund and may be mailed to Stony Creek Inn, PO Box 184, Stony Creek, NY, 12878. For details, call the Stony Creek Inn at 696-2394.
