Heritage Festival, Youth Fair Sat. WARRENSBURG — Warren County will again have a full-fledged fair as in past decades, as the Warren County Rural Heritage Festival & Youth Fair is held this weekend on the county fairgrounds off Schroon River Road.

On Saturday, Aug. 11, the Heritage Festival and Youth Fair promises a day of family fun with displays and demonstrations of traditional skills, tools and crafts of bygone days, as well as the familiar annual county youth fair talent show, horse show and youth produce and craft competitions.

Due to a new partnership between the Warren County Historical Society and the 4H program of Cornell Cooperative Extension, the daylong event will feature a square dance, horseshoe and croquet competitions, 19th century game and story telling, one of the event organizers said. The event is set for 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

“The Heritage Festival and Fair will explore and celebrate our rural traditions of work and play from

Village won’t budge on park ownership

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Turning away from a tentative agreement made two months ago, Lake George Village leaders don’t want to give up any portion of the 38 percent of the Charles Wood

Park they own to allow the town to regain ownership, Mayor Blais announced Wednesday Aug. I. His announcement — that the village was backing off its earlier pledge to redistribute ownership in even thirds between the county, town and village — surprised and irked county leaders, as well as Lake George Town Supervisor

Dennis Dickinson.

“I’m disappointed and upset,” Dickinson said. “We all should be equal players in the project.”

Glens Falls Ward 5 Supervisor Bill Kenny characterized the apparent lack of cooperation as “childish.”

Blais made the announcement soon after county Administrator Paul Dusek

QUEENSBURY — With Warren County’s Westmount nursing home facing future financial losses predicted to total millions of dollars, county supervisors voted unanimously Thursday Aug. 2 to explore

privatizing the facility.

County Administrator Paul Dusek developed and presented the proposal Aug. 2 to the supervisors serving on the county Budget Committee, who then gave the initiative — to issue a Request for Proposals for the facility’s future operation — their overwhelming support.

Rather than envisioning it as a

“fire sale” — dumping it for cash as other counties across the state have done — county Administrator Paul Dusek said that privatizing Westmount might be more of a publicprivate partnership that could benefit everyone.

He cited the resounding success of the Warren County railroad, which was a floundering concern until the

McDonald is facing three charges of fourth-degree Criminal Mischief, and a charge of third-degree Criminal Trespass stemming from a June 29 incident. Police said that she threw her body weight against a door at the Public Works office building, damaging the door and its frame, then broke into the building and went upstairs, fell asleep and urinated on two office chairs, spending the night without permission of county officials. She was found partially clad and passed out on the floor by employees showing up for work. Police said she’d partially consumed a 12-pack of beer found in the building. Her case was adjourned to a later date.

Moffitt, 29, of Rock Avenue Chestertown, was arraigned on charges of Driving While Intoxicated, leaving the scene of a personal injury accident, unreasonable speed, moving from lane unsafely, unlicensed operator, and several traffic infractions based on an incident at 4:46 a.m. July 12 on Lake Avenue when he veered off the road, ran through a brick lamp post and crashed into a tree, police said.

They also said he refused to take a blood-alcohol test at Glens Falls Hospital.

What's so special about the Adirondack Park?

Stories from the Wild #6

So...we have two meat-eating plants right here in the Adirondacks?

Ever think you'd feel sorry for a bug?

Meet the Sundew and the Pitcher plants, both smarter than the average Adirondack bear. The Sundew tricks insects into touching the sticky stems on its leaves.

When the insect lands, the plant strangles the poor little guy.

Meanwhile, the Pitcher dines on insects tartare by enticing them with a sweet liquid pool in its body. So, here we have it, vegetation that isn't vegan.

If you actually want to find these scary plants, they grow in the waterlogged bogs full of peat, sphagnum moss and other water-loving plants. Note: if you're a bug, stand clear. Head south. (Many Adirondackers would happily support that, anyway.)

Route 9 paving to be extended through W’burg

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Paving work on state Rt. 9 in the Warrensburg-Lake George area is expected to continue into fall, a state Department of Transportation spokeswoman said this week.

A new asphalt surface stretching from Lake George Village to a point just south of Warrensburg was completed this past week.

In the coming weeks, the new ribbon of fresh smooth pavement is to be extended from Baker ’s Crossing Road north through the Warrensburg hamlet to Morehouse Road, DOT spokeswoman Carol Breen said.

Work has been scheduled to begin by the end of October and be completed

by December, but it may be accomplished sooner, she said. DOT officials are discussing a schedule change with the paving contractor, proposing that the project begin soon after Labor Day and be finished before the first week in October, she said.

Local officials said it was vital for the paving project not to be ongoing during the annual Worlds’s Largest Garage Sale, which is to be held this year on Saturday Sept. 29 and Sunday Sept. 30. The event annually brings many thousands of vehicles into town, backing up traffic for miles.

Breen said that DOT officials sought to comply.

As of Aug. 3, a new asphalt surface was applied northward to a point just south of the Warrensburg town line. Work on re-paving Rt. 9 through Warrensburg is expected to begin in the coming weeks, and town officials are hoping the work doesn’t conflict with the World’s Largest Garage Sale event, set for the end of September.

“We are working with the contractor and town officials to determine paving dates that will have the least impact on traffic,” she said. “The final schedule is yet to be determined.”

Warrensburg Town Supervisor

Kevin Geraghty said he hadn’t shared conversations on the issue with any representative of DOT, but he had heard that the paving project was to extend to the Warrensburg-Chester town line several miles north of downtown.

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com HORICON — The Ron Rising family’s home was heavily damaged by fire in late June, and their friends and relatives are holding a fundraiser to help them get recover from their losses, relatives said this week.

A $20 donation can be made at the at door, or $15 in advance. All are welcome to attend. Identification is required for consumption of adult beverages.

The fundraiser will include a Chinese auction, 50-50 draw-

ings, door prizes, as well as good times.

Entertainment includes deejay John Murphy, and performances by the ‘Technical Difficulty’ band and members of the group Halfstep.

The Risings had no insurance on their house on Harris Road in Brant Lake, and they are raising three young children. The family is temporarily staying with Ron’s partner ’s parents.

“They lost nearly everything they owned,” Rich Rising said. “We’re all doing everything we can to help them out.”

Is there hope for a sequel?

E

veryone likes to get away for a while, to escape their worries and the daily grind and escape, even if it is just for a couple of hours.

One of the best ways to do that is by going to the movies, where audiences are taken on an adventure, made to laugh or cry, and even given a chance to think.

Don’t believe us? Then let’s look at the numbers. The top three grossing movies of 2011 (“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II,” “Transformers: Dark of the Moon,” and “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides”) made $947.5 million.

However, people throughout the North Country may soon lose their access to Hollywood, and it will be Hollywood’s fault.

You see, by the end of next year, every motion picture studio will be making the changeover to 100-percent digital distribution. Your children will soon view 35mm film in the same way they view dial-up internet connections, phones with cords, floppy disks and cell phones you could not text on.

So how are the movie companies helping theaters out? In the case of several small, independently owned local establishments, they are not. Their message is loud and clear: either pay an average of $100,000 per screen to convert to digital or find yourself as extinct as the featured characters in “Jurassic Park.”

Another option is to lease the digital equipment from the movie companies. Sounds good, right? Wrong. Any theater that entered into a lease would be under the control of, “the man,” only being able to show the movies given to them by the companies. For places like the Palace Theater in Lake Placid, the Hollywood in Au Sable Forks or the Strand in Schroon Lake, this would mean all of the special shows that they put on during the holidays or to support local volunteers would go out the window.

The cold truth is, why would the movie companies care about these three theatres, when they only have seven screens total ?

(Palace - 4, Hollywood - 2, Strand - 1) Why would they care about the one-screen State Theater in Tupper Lake, the one-screen Strand in Plattsburgh, the single screen at the Indian Lake Theater, or the two screens at the Glen Drive-In of Queensbury? That’s a grand total of 12 screens.

Think about that. In the entirety of the Adirondack Park, there are only nine movie

screens (the Glen and Plattsburgh Strand are located outside the Blue Line). Why would big movie companies care about these theaters when there are 21 screens between the Cumberland 12 and Regal Cinemas 8?

While Cumberland is an independent multiplex, Regal Cinemas at Champlain Centre also has the backing of 6,463 screens in 555 locations across the United States. Again, why would big companies care about nine screens in an area the size of several states when they have all of these others? Another case of the little man getting stepped on.

And if you are thinking that this is no big deal, here’s some data for you. According to a study done by the Adirondack Film Society, the local Adirondack movie screens attract over $11 million in spending to the region each year. That is almost $1.3 million in estimated sales tax revenue (state and local) that is desperately needed by the communities and counties that make up the park. That is another big hit when you add the fact that another big man—the state—is keeping the little man down with a two-percent tax cap.

These theaters need to survive. They need the help of the state and their local communities, or they are going to be gone forever. We urge the North Country Regional Economic Development Council to do all that they can to provide funding so these theaters can purchase their own digital projectors and screens so they can continue to provide entertainment to their communities. We note that it is also alarming that during a press conference last week, those who have been seeking grant funds for this undertaking said that they were refused entrance into the NCREDC funding pool because they were, “five minutes late,” in submitting their application. We thought the NCREDC was here to work with local businesses, not add more red tape to their plight.

Luckily, the group was able to get in an application for a consolidated grant directly to the state, which we feel must be approved.

If not, this could be the biggest cliffhanger ever seen for these local theaters, with no hopes of a sequel.

Four more years of gridlock

G

ridlock, and the continued widening of the gap between the two political parties on the federal level, leaves most Americans questioning how we will ever resolve the many problems facing the nation.

Both parties have taken political spin mastery to outrageous new levels. Playing to the outer limits of their political bases has done nothing positive for the country and thus it leaves only division, anger, confusion and misinformation among the masses.

More and more American citizens are realizing that neither party has their best interests at heart. Playing chicken, showing complete disrespect for each other and the offices they hold, leaving the country deep in debt while failing to control spending and yet promising that their party alone can solve the ever growing problems facing our nation is leaving citizens with little choice and opportunity. The American political system is now seriously broken and no one in a leadership role nor established party seems prepared to modify their approach in an effort to fix it. Instead this election is shaping up to be just another head bashing, over promising, negative and deeply dividing event sure to leave many frustrated voters wondering how much longer we can tolerate the sad state of the country.

It’s doubtful we will see well recognized national figures break ranks from the established parties, join together and provide serious solutions while proving their genuine sincerity. I fear we will be left once again hoping something will change. We need to face the simple fact that neither party candidate will win with a national mandate, thus forcing the losing party to dig in their heels even further causing even greater stonewalling, and the only things growing will be gridlock, unemployment and the national debt. We all know it’s going to happen like the car accident that happens before your eyes in slow motion. Gridlock is the only thing Washington has mastered over the last 20 years and it ensures the status quo of “If we can’t win then we’ll keep you from being successful at all costs so we have a better chance next time around.” That game may work for the politicians but it’s done little for the country and its future generations.

Somehow, some way we need to break this cycle and scare the “you know what” out of the two established parties. They need to understand that they stand, oh so close, to the abyss, and the American public won’t tolerate this foolishness any longer. The big question is, is there a nationally recognized and well fi-

nanced figure out there who could step in at this late date and make a serious bid for the presidency? The inDan Alexander dividual or group Thoughts from Behind the Pressline would have to be very well established, not seen as a polarizing figure, have unlimited funds and be fearless in the face of a tremendous onslaught from both parties.

While such a candidacy might not succeed, it could be just enough to bring the two parties to the simple realization that they had better find solutions now or surely be prepared to face an even tougher challenge in 2016.

Currently there are five major third or alternative parties in the United States and dozens of lesser-known third parties. Gary Johnson, the former governor of New Mexico, ran for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, running on a platform based on legalization of marijuana, and is the leading candidate for the Libertarian party nomination.

Despite dropping out of the Republican race a week before the Iowa caucuses, Mr. Johnson has not given up his hopes of competing for the White House in November. Having switched to the third party, Mr. Johnson said he is confident that he will be one of three people to compete in all 50 states in the fall along with Jim Gray, a former California judge, as his vice presidential running mate.

I find it hard to believe Mr. Johnson’s candidacy will have an impact on the results this fall. Despite how frustrated the American public may be with the Washington leadership, and the current two established choices, a third party candidate like Mr. Johnson is just not up to the monumental task of even making a dent in the 2012 political scene. But a serious dent is exactly what’s needed to shake up the established parties and bring them back to getting things done. Until the two parties see their existence and power seriously threatened, why should they alter the good thing they have going? It’s sad but it seems no one is prepared to save us from yet another four years of gridlock reruns, Washington bickering and further indebtedness, and that is my greatest fear of exactly what we’ll have more of regardless of who we elect in 2012.

News near and far •100 Years Ago – Aug. 1912•

Death came in the night “Hey, dig my grave will you!” shouted George Taylor on the afternoon of Aug. 5, 1912 to Edward Noble, Sexton of the Warrensburgh Cemetery, who was at work there when Taylor was passing by. The words were said in a light-hearted jest, but the next morning Noble did the job and assisted in lowering into the grave the terribly mangled body of the jester.

Taylor was trampled to death by a horse in Mrs. Ann Torrence’s barn on Third St.during the night. The man had been employed as hostler at the Agricultural Hotel (now Ashe’s Hotel). He had been there about a year and a half, coming to Warrensburgh from a job in Lake George. He was one of the many good natured, irresponsible characters who float about the country, little to be depended upon, principally because of the use of intoxicants.

Just five days before he died, Taylor went to the pasture after the cows and did not return until Saturday. Landlord Henry Ashe then informed him that forbearance had ceased to be a virtue and discharged him.

The man asked permission of Asa Bunker, brother of Mrs. Torrence, who lives with her, to occupy for a few nights a room in the loft of her barn and his request was granted.

Mr. Bunker says that when he locked the barn Monday night Aug. 5, Taylor was all right. When he went to do the chores about 5 o’clock Tuesday morning he found the man’s lifeless body in the box stall with the horse, horribly mangled by the horse’s feet while the animal was cowering in a corner.

Taylor was lying face downward with one arm drawn up evidently in an effort to protect his face. The body was cold and stiff showing that he had been dead for several hours. Just how the accident occurred will never be known.

H.L. Smith, who lives in the adjoining house, heard the horse kicking and squeal-

ing about 10 o’clock Monday night and it was without doubt then that the tragedy occurred. The horse is a gentle animal and the owner is unable to account for its action.

Coroner Burt of Lake George gave a verdict of accidental death. The body was in such a condition that immediate burial was necessary and as Taylor left no money, Overseer of the Poor John J. Archer took charge of the body and superintended the burial. George Taylor was originally from Port Henry.

Singer issues bad notes New York vocalist Griffith Hughes, who spent a week in Warrensburgh early in July and was the subject of a brief write-up in the Warrensburgh News, was arrested Wednesday evening, July 31, 1912 at the Baptist Church in Ticonderoga, just after he had sung with the choir the closing hymn of the weekly prayer meeting.

The offense for which Hughes was taken into custody and to which he confessed his guilt was passing a worthless check for $20 at the Hotel Worden, Lake George in payment for a bill for board. When informed of the charge against him, the young man confessed that it was true and than collapsed.

He was under the care of a physician for several hours and his plight aroused much sympathy among the congregation that had so greatly enjoyed his really fine singing. His voice was much admired by all who were privileged to hear him. They therefore raised sufficient money to make the check good and the case against the baritone soloist was dropped.

Hughes played the same game at the Warren House in Warrensburgh. When he left his bill was $10 and he gave Landlord O’Connor a worthless check for $15 and received $5 in change. He was in such a hurry to leave that he left some of his baggage behind. It was found that he also passed a bogus check at a prominent hotel in Rutland, Vt.

Country-folk duet Dick Staber and Judith Chasnoff

Folk/country group to perform Thurman’s weekly Concert & Market in the Park Aug. 13 will present the folk and bluegrass harmonies of Staber & Chasnoff with Daryl Smith beginning at 7 p.m. in the pavilion in Thurman’s recreational field behind the town hall in Athol.

Dick Staber on mandolin and Judith Chasnoff on guitar have performed together since 1993, Staber on mandolin with Judith Chasnoff on guitar. Together, they offer engaging harmonies that have deep country roots. In the Thurman concert, they are joined by Daryl Smith on banjo. Young and old alike will enjoy this free concert, and there is a wonderful playground on site.

The Saber-Chasnoff group has played at many bluegrass festivals around the region. Thurman Emergency Medical services will be operating a concession stand with refreshments for the audience.

Vendors, gardeners and artisans are still being sought for this ongoing concert series. Call 623-9649 for details.

Activities and events in the hills The Thurman Fire Department holds their monthly meetings on Friday of the first full week of the month, which will be Aug. 10 this month — the gathering convenes at 7 p.m.

Stop in and say “Hello” and see how you can become a volunteer.

The Sugar Loaf Mountain Seniors Club meets on the third Wednesday of the month at 6 p.m., and the next meeting will be Aug. 15 at the Thurman Town Hall. There will be a covered dish dinner with a short business meeting following, during which upcoming day trips are to be discussed. This fun-loving club has room for more members and membership is still only $10 per year.

Many area seniors may not be able to attend their gather-

Elderly Chester resident dead One of the oldest residents of the town of Chester, known as “Aunt Jane Wells,” passed away the morning of July 24, 1912 at the old homestead on the lane road on The Gore, where she had made her home with her two sons, William and Arthur Wells. She was the widow of Francis Wells and for many years she had been in ill health and was unable to be up and about for the past year, but although she was 80 years old her death came as a shock to all who knew her.

Mrs. Wells was the mother of seven surviving children, James, Daniel, Woodard, William and Arthur Wells, all of Igerna as well as Amarilla West and Elijah Wells, 19 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.

She had been an active member of the North Chester Baptist Church for 52 years. Jane Wells led a Christian life and the world was better for her having lived and her hope and patience through suffering these last years is a lesson to all.

Deaths in the news Henry Brown, 58, of North Creek, died June 28, 1912 at Eagle’s Nest Club, Blue Mountain Lake, of which he had been superintendent for ten years. He leaves a widow and two daughters, Geraldine and Pauline Brown, all of North Creek. The deceased was highly esteemed.

Winifred M. Chambers, 16, died Sunday afternoon, July 27, 1912 at the home of her father, Robert Chambers of Lake George.

The body of Mrs. O.B. Proy of Somerville, Mass., was brought to Warrensburgh, where she was formerly a resident, on July 29, 1912.

She died at her summer home after an illness of only 45 minutes.

ings, so if anyone can provide a ride to and from these meetings, it would be greatly appreciated. This may be the only opportunity some seniors have to socialize with fellow residents. Those who have questions or can provide transportation, call Norma at 623-9425.

The Thurman Fire Company meets on Fridays of the first full week of the month, which this month is Aug. 17 at 7 p.m.

New members are always welcome just stop in to see how you can volunteer!

Warren County Public Health will be holding a Rabies Clinic from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday Aug 18 at the Thurman Fire House, located at 368 Athol Road. A $10 donation is requested for each pet. No one will be turned away due to financial hardship. Dogs must be on leashes and cats in carriers. For more information call 761-6580.

Pets must be three months of age to receive their first immunization, which will afford them protection for one year.

The next shot, which is a booster, will afford protection for three years and is required one year after the first shot was given. From then on, every three years a booster should be given to protect one’s pet. Both initial and booster shots are given at all clinics scheduled by Warren County Public Health.

Stop in and meet the members of the Thurman Quilting Group in one of their routine gatherings. They hold their meetings every Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the town hall. Bring your quilting, knitting, crocheting, or sewing project and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee while visiting with your friends and neighbors. For details, contact Myra at 623-2633.

Quilters assist stricken children Avis Russell is a member of two quilting groups; one is in Florida and the other is right here in Thurman. The group in Florida makes blankets for veterans, newborns and parents of deceased newborns. She started creating handmade pillowcases for children battling cancer— to be distributed at Albany Medical Center — when she visited a quilting show and met a young woman who inspired her.

Each pillowcase is made with three different pieces of fabric and has a theme. the quilts are constructed with a basic case, the hem and a thin decorative strip or piping in between. There are no raw edge seams, all are double-sewn.

The children get to take the pillow case home with them when they leave the hospital. There is much work required for the pillowcases to be received at Albany Medical Center.

Hats Off Avis — job well done!

Over the fence Did you miss this past month’s Gleaning food distribution? All Thurman residents can stop in at the town hall in times of need without waiting for the scheduled monthly distribution date..

Donations of food are always welcome. Those who would like to volunteer an hour or more of their time, contact the town hall at 623-9649.

The Thurman Station Association is now a member of the Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce. An open meeting at was held Aug. 1 to discuss this year's Fall Farm Tour and other topics. The next meeting will be held on Sept. 12 at 6 p.m. New members are always welcome.

The greatest volcanic eruption thus far in the 20th century took place June 6, 1912 as Novarupta in Alaska began a series of explosive episodes over a 60-hour period.

Seneca Ray Stoddard of Glens Falls has issued his 1912 automobile road map of the Adirondacks. It is handsomely printed with colored lines showing state roads completed and in process of construction. The map sells for 50 cents and is indispensable for traveling autoists. These maps are the best that can be procured of this region.

The state road is closed between Warrensburgh and Chestertown as they are blasting at the Devil’s Kitchen area and it is not safe to go near there. (Note:“The Devil’s Kitchen” is the impressive high stone wall formation on the side of the mountain at the east side of Rt. 9 half way between Warrensburgh and Chestertown.)

Scarcity of feed owing to the lack of rain has risen the price of milk in Bolton Landing to seven cents a quart.

Park ownership from page 1 detailed what the shares were worth, and how much money the three municipalities would exchange to reallocate the shares and settle up lingering inter-municipal debts.

The one-third-each financial settlement called for the town pay $529,770 to purchase 33 shares from the county, and for the village to pay the county $103,184 to give up 5 shares to the town.

Mayor Blais said that for the village to pay to give up its shares – which it obtained at a hefty discount – was a bad deal for village citizens.

“We’ve made some very good business decisions — we got a good deal, and we don’t want to spend any money to decrease our ownership position,“ Blais said.

The discord over ownership has roots in the Town of Lake George’s action, under a previous administration, to sell its 19 percent portion to the village for $210,000, after a dispute erupted about what buildings in the park’s festival space should be demolished.

Since the project’s inception, Warren County has owned 62 percent of the park, with the town and village each starting out with 19 percent. The village’s share doubled to 38 percent with the sale, was underwritten by environmental groups.

The new town board, under the leadership of new town supervisor Dennis Dickinson, sought this year to reclaim its former ownership position, and the tentative agreement was reached in June for the three parties to reallocate shares to one-third each.

Wednesday, Blais suggested the town buy whatever shares they wanted from the county and not the village.

Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty and Thurman Supervisor Evelyn Wood both suggested the county sell all but one or two shares in the project.

“Considering this squabbling, the county should sell all but 1 percent of its portion to the town,” he said.

Wood echoed the point.

“The county should get out of the project,” she said. “We shouldn’t have county taxpayers’ money in this.”

Dickinson, Dusek and park project committee chairman Fred Monroe responded, however, that for the county to reduce its portion so drastically would put state and private grants at risk.

“It sends a terrible message to all the pro-

ject’s supporters for us to back out of it,” he said. “This is a $10 million project, and the county has only $1.4 million invested – it represents a huge value.”

Monroe added that the agreement to develop the park, crafted between the three municipalities and three major environmental groups many years ago with the state’s blessing, would be difficult if not impossible to exit.

“It’s not within the county’s power to disband the conservation easement,” he said.

Visibly irritated with the complexity of the ownership settlement sums that Dusek had prepared – which included expenses not repaid to the county by the village, Geraghty questioned why there was no apparent central oversight of finances.

He called for a “point person” to handle the accounting for the park project. Dusek said that such duties were never assigned by the Board of Supervisors, but his office would temporarily undertake those tasks and prepare a list of payments to be exchanged.

County Board of Supervisors Chairman Dan Stec said that the county would be considering Blais’ proposal that the county sell splitting its shares evenly with the town — so they’d each hold 31 shares, while the village retains 38.

“Apparently the town leadership is experiencing ‘sticker shock,’” he said, adding that decisions affecting the project require approval of all three parties anyway since the deed for the park lists the three municipalities as “tenants in common.”

“The exact amount of shares each party owns doesn’t really matter,” he said.

The only aspect where ownership portion would matter, is in divvying up profits or debts, and Stec said no net profits are expected from the venture The revenue from renting the festival space and parking revenue is offset by a variety of costs, including maintenance of the entire park, most of which is reserved for wetlands to purify stormwater flowing into the lake.

After the meeting, Dickinson moderated his reactions, saying that he understood why the village would balk at paying $103,184 to give away five shares, and he added that for the town to pay more than $500,000 to regain ownership would be a strain on the town budget. He said he would be meeting this next week with county officials to go over figures and seek a compromise, if possible.

“As a new town supervisor, I want to be cautious with taxpayers’ money,” he said.

Hundreds turn out to clean up Lake George litter

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — As many as several hundred local citizens of all ages picked up trash and litter Saturday Aug. 4 from the waters, beaches and watershed of Lake George.

The annual lakewide event, titled Keep the Queen Clean — Lake George Cleanup Day, was organized by the Fund for Lake George and its associated agency, the Lake George Waterkeeper.

“It was a great day,” Kathy Bozony of The Fund said on Monday Aug. 6, after many dozens of bags were picked up and gathered for disposal.

Bozony prepared a list Aug. 6 detailing dozens of beaches, waterfront stretches, and islands of Lake George that were cleaned up by crews of volunteers. She said far more than 100 people registered with her agency, and about as many worked on the cleanup effort without officially signing up.

Bozony requested that those volunteers who didn’t register but worked cleaning up Aug. 4 around the lake submit photographs and details of their accomplishments to: info@lakegeorgewaterkeeper.org so her group can compile records of the event.

“This effort emphasizes our dependence on and appreciation for this special lake, and

CHESTERTOWN — Three years ago, Jeremiah Monroe of Brant Lake, a U.S. Army soldier, died in combat in Afghanistan.

Since then, local people have paid heartfelt tribute to Monroe for his service to the country by participating in the annual Jeremiah Monroe Memorial Golf Tournament, established by members of the Monroe family.

The proceeds of the event are contributed to the Wounded Warrior Project, a non-profit group that aids injured soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan — with therapy, counseling and prosthetics.

Through the tournament, now in its third year, lives of other soldiers are healed and uplifted, representatives of the charity have noted.

This year, a total of 64 golfers participated in this living tribute to Jeremiah Monroe.

With this year ’s tournament proceeds, a total of $23,455 has been raised for the Wounded Warrior charity, according to Nikki Monroe Rising, a cousin of Jeremiah’s.

NOW OPEN UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — The history, traditions, tools and lifestyle of the trappers, explorers and fur traders of America’s bygone eras will come to life next weekend as an encampment of the American Mountain Men occurs at the Adirondack Museum.

Visitors to the museum Friday Aug. 17 and Saturday Aug. 18 will be experiencing compelling demonstrations of tomahawk and knife throwing, and campfire cooking by re-enactors belonging to this national organization. Pelts, furs, and firearms associated with the early American rustic life will be on display.

Mountain men are powerful symbols of America's wild

frontier a museum representative said this week.

Legends about mountain men continue to fascinate because many of the tales are true: their lives were rough, and despite an amazing ability to survive in the wilderness, they faced death on a regular basis, she said.

Founded in 1968, the American Mountain Men group researches the history, traditions, and lifestyle of these frontiersmen.

Members work toward mastery of the primitive skills of both the original mountain men and Native Americans. The group prides itself on the accuracy and authenticity of its interpretation, she said.

WARRENSBURG — Keen competition is expected this weekend in two different events involving what would normally be considered a genteel, civilized sport.

Two croquet contests are planned, including the annual Sticky Wicket tournament set for Sunday Aug. 12 — sponsored by the Warrensburgh Historical Society.

But another preview croquet event, set for a day earlier, has caused a buzz in the region as well as a few smiles among potential participants.

A croquet competition among Warren County Supervisors is planned for 12:30 p.m. Saturday in conjunction with the Warren County Rural Heritage Festival & Youth Fair, set for the county fairgrounds off Schroon River Road.

Five supervisors have committed for this showdown among politicians, who may occasionally bump into one another on the golf course. Committed are Evelyn Wood of Thurman, Ron Vanselow of Johnsburg, Gene Merlino of Lake Luzerne, David Strainer of Queensbury, and Peter McDevitt of Glens

winners, would likely be prompting more publicity for the Heritage Festival and Youth Fair — which he said needed more notoriety.

“I’m very excited about this,” he said.

On Sunday Aug. 12, the 16th annual Sticky Wicket Croquet Tournament & Picnic will be held at the county Fish Hatchery park in Warrensburg off Echo Lake Road. The event begins at 11 am, with sign-up for the tournament. Players on three courses will vie for the coveted Sticky Wicket Trophy.

The free annual "bring-a-dish" picnic begins at 12:30 pm. The Society provides grilled chicken and beverages.

The Sticky Wicket tourney is considered an entertaining event for both participants and spectators. Attendees are welcome to dress in historic garb if they wish. Competitors may pre-register by contacting Delbert Chambers at 623-3514.

All donations are to benefit the work of the Warrensburgh Historical Society. For details, call 623-2207 or see: www.whs12885.org Also, the Warrensburgh Historical Society will be hosting a display at the Heritage Festival, detailing its work in conjunction with the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History.

Tickets for a raffle featuring two Old Town kayaks will be on sale at both events. The winning ticket will be drawn Sunday at the conclusion of the Sticky Wicket tourney.

There is a kiosk with information about Floyd and his accomplishments near the bandstand.

Balloon fest, Lake George receive national attention thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — The Adirondack Balloon Festival has been named one of the top 100 events for 2013 in North America by the American Bus Association, Warren County tourism officials announced Wednesday Aug. 1.

County Group Tour Promoter Tanya Brand told county supervisors that the designation would give the balloon festival additional visibility among tour planners across the U.S. and in Canada.

“This is a big deal,” Brand said, noting that national media are likely to showcase the winners when the news is made public in a month or two. “The top 100 events will receive worldwide attention.”

h l 9tnnua

She also noted that the Warren County Department of Tourism sponsors the American Bus Association tour operator binder, which is distributed to more than 250 tour planners. Not only will the balloon fest’s “Top 100 Event” award be heralded in color on the binder's front cover, but so will a variety of other destinations and attractions in the county.

Warren County, particularly Lake George, has also been gaining some national and international attention in other ways, Brand said.

County Tourism personnel recently hosted a representative from Audley Travel, a leading luxury and adventure travel agency from Great Britain. Their representative spent a day in the Lake George area and experienced a guided ride on the Saratoga-

North Creek Railway, visited The Sagamore Resort and Boathouse Bed and Breakfast, stopped in at Lake George Holiday Inn as well as Oscar ’s Smoke House in Warrensburg, took a dinner cruise on the Saint Sacrament, and stayed overnight at The Georgian.

The representative for Audley Travel, which is to open a Manhattan office next year, was enthusiastic and said she’d be recommending Warren County as a destination, Brand said, adding that she is hosting several more travel representatives soon. Included in these “familiarization tours” are such destinations as Prospect Mountain, Lake George Dinner Theatre, Fort William Henry, Pottersville’s Natural Stone Bridge & Caves and Railroads on Parade, Adirondack Winery in Lake George and downtown Bolton Landing and the Algonquin Restaurant just south of town.

Some area accommodations and attractions are already experiencing an increase in business this year, Brand reported. She said the Saratoga-North Creek Railway sold out their trips for two days this week, and they’ve booked train rides for 70 busloads of tourists to date for 2012. She also said The Sagamore Resort also sold out one recent weekday, and the Boathouse is sold out for July and August, and the Lake George Dinner Theatre is experiencing increased business.

Also, Brand reported that the International Coleman Collectors Club convention held

in Lake George earlier this summer broke club records for attendance — higher than any of their other conventions held elsewhere for decades across the nation.

County Tourism Director Kate Johnson noted that CNN.com just posted Lake George as one of five top getaways for metropolitan New York city residents.

The website, complete with sweeping vistas of Lake George, touts the “classic summer nostalgia” of mini-golf, ice cream stands and T-shirt shops in the village, as well as The Sagamore Hotel as a premier place for family vacations.

“New York City dwellers might be shocked at how low restaurant prices are,” the website article says about Lake George Village eateries.

“Meals are comforting and good,” it continues, noting that the village is not necessarily a “foodie paradise.”

Horicon Day 2012: hot, popular, eventful

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BRANT LAKE — Scorching weather didn’t deter people from flocking to the local community festival that’s fast become a beloved tradition.

A crowd of hundreds attended Horicon Day on Saturday Aug. 4, with far more children participating than in the prior two years of the festival, event organizers reported.

This may have been because of an expanded lineup of games and activities, Margaret Holmes and Matt Simpson said.

“Our new rock wall was going ‘full bore’ all day long with four solid hours of action,” Simpson said. “There were more kids in the crowd, all day long, than last year.”

Also, the new attraction of a dunking booth was popular, observers said. Citizens got to take a shot at Horicon Town Board members Bob Olson and Matt Simpson, as well as Zoning Administrator Gary McMeekin. A large number of North Warren students also volunteered to get plunged into the water — as a respite from the heat, Simpson said.

“It was great to get dunked,” he said of his own refreshing forays into the water tank. “I enjoyed the day off from normal things.”

Temperatures as high as 95 degrees may have shortened families’ visits to Horicon Days — held at the town hall on Rte. 8 — but it certainly didn’t stop people from attending, Simpson said.

He noted that Paul Holmes had seen the forecast Friday, and had hurried to construct a misting apparatus that would provide a fun cooling-off station for Horicon Days attendees.

Children particularly enjoyed the station which sprayed people with a fine mist of water, he said.

A crowd of more than 70 people enjoyed the spaghettiand-meatball dinner prepared and served by the employees of Tin Teepee Campground, Simpson said.

A large crowd gathered afterwards to hear the Steven L. Smith Band and watch the colorful fireworks display that followed, Simpson said. Brant Lake Taxi provided a shuttle for people who had to park in remote parking areas, Simpson added.

“The band was fantastic and the fireworks were awesome,” he said. Margaret Holmes said dozens of cars parked around the Mill Pond to see the aerial show.

The event’s vendors reported slightly less browsers, but substantially more sales, Holmes said.

“Our crafters said that people seemed to be buying more this year,” she said.

Among those attending was Matt Doheny (R-Watertown), candidate for the 21st District, U.S. Congress. He is challenging U.S. Rep. Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh) for the position.

Doheny circulated in the crowd for a while, greeting others attending as he sought support, Simpson said.

Horicon Day’s classic car and boat shows were very popular, Simpson said, noting that standout vehicles included a flawless restored Mustang and a 1950s Chrysler New Yorker.

“There were some marvelous vehicles on display,” he said.

Holmes said that Warren County’s “Safe Child” fingerprinting event was considered a big success with the county Sheriff ’s representatives, as 40 children participated.

The video show of local resident and noted Adirondack photographer Carl Heilman was popular, and Heilman presented an impromptu encore presentation, Holmes said. The local Boy Scouts “Monkey Bridge,” with its rope walking course, was a fun activity for children, she added.

The pie-eating contest not only included youth competing, but a contest was also held for adults, to test their stomach capacities. Holmes said with some adults hesitant to participate, children gladly filled the roster in the adult division.

Horicon Day’s community softball game pitted men and women — a good number of them middle-aged — against

North Warren High School students. After the high schoolers started slamming home runs, the umpires gave the oldsters a break, calling strikes for their team’s pitches that appeared out of the strike zone, Holmes said.

“Everyone had a lot of fun,” she said.

Holmes said that the popularity of Horicon Day was due in part to extensive publicity and advertising. She also praised local minister Kevin Radford for setting up and managing the new www.horiconday.com website.

Simpson said plans were already being discussed for next year. He said that a shuttle might be set up to transport attendees from remote parking lots all day long, and not merely for the fireworks show.

Holmes said the work of the many volunteers’ work in planning the 2012 event paid off, particularly because Horicon Day was a treasured local tradition.

“It’s so nice to see area families coming together for a community event like this,” she concluded.

During Horicon Day activities Aug. 4, Dennis Doyle of Brant Lake (left) shows Tom Crescitelli of Bolton the Adirondack guideboat that he built.

Doyle’s craft was one of many boats displayed at the event.

18 - Adirondack Journal mittee endorsed the concept of soliciting proposals as Dusek described, and the initiative was forwarded to the county’s Human Services Committee. The measure will likely be subject to consideration within weeks by the full county Board of Supervisors.

The proposal was undertaken in light of the operating deficits Westmount is now experiencing, and projections of how state and federal subsidies are to decrease substantially by 2012, Dusek said.

This year, Westmount applied $1.2 million of its reserve funds toward its operating budget and still had a shortfall of $584,000 bankrolled by the taxpayers.

This operating shortfall is expected by 2016 to balloon to about $6 million, accord-

Nursing home from page 1 and the railway blossomed to surpass expectations.

In a similar fashion, the county could ask for private firms to submit proposals, that would have such minimum guarantees as: 1) Continued care of residents and the county’s elderly, including providing for those depending on Medicaid and Medicare; 2) Expanding the nursing home population or range of services — like developing assisted living facilities, adult day care and/or rehabilitation care; 3) Retaining existing employees; and 4) Creating new jobs.

The Supervisors serving on the county Budget Com-

ing to financial projections prepared several weeks ago

by Dusek.

At the Aug. 2 meeting, Westmount Comptroller Becky Henkel said she believed there would be a lower deficits than those Dusek cited.

The supervisors, particularly Warrensburg Supervisor and county Budget officer Kevin Geraghty — as well as Chester Supervisor Fred Monroe — cited the need to continue to provide care for the county’s elderly who depend on Medicaid and Medicare.

Monroe noted that many nursing homes now turn away Medicaid recipients because the reimbursement pays far less than the services actually cost.

Westmount Director Barbara Taggart also said the

Warren County Supervisors voted Aug. 2 to seek proposals from private companies to operate Westmount Nursing Home, with a mandate that services be expanded, existing staff be retained, new jobs be created and that Medicaid patients would be accommodated.

county should continue its mission to serve all, regardless of ability to pay.

“Westmount residents grew up here, worked here, raised families here,” she said. “Caring for them is a moral issue.”

She also noted that 28 percent of Westmount’s patients were private-pay, which historically bolstered the home’s finances. County officials said this percentage was far higher than most municipally operated nursing homes across the state.

Supporting the initiative, Horicon Supervisor Ralph Bentley noted that shutting Westmount down would continue to cost the taxpayers anyway, as the county would be required to pay the Medicaid costs of the infirm elderly cared for elsewhere.

Dusek predicted that private firms would consider operating Westmount as an attractive proposition, due to its proximity to the Northway — which would be convenient for private-pay Capital Region families visiting their loved ones, and because it has a cogeneration plant on site that can provide heat and electricity inexpensively for the nursing home. He also noted the ample acreage available surrounding the home, the adjacent municipal water and sewer services, as well as the skilled existing staff.

Dusek’s plan includes hiring a professional marketing firm to assist with drafting the request for proposals.

Neighboring Essex County and Washington County have recently taken action to privatize their nursing

homes. Essex County’s facility, Horace Nye Nursing Home, has been operating at a substantial loss, and Washington County’s Pleasant Valley Home has also been operating at a loss as well as being cited for various clinical violations.

Warren County Board of

Supervisors Chairman Dan Stec said he supported the initiative to solicit proposals from private companies to operate Westmount, via either lease or purchase.

“This is a very prudent exercise for us to undertake,” he said. “And it costs us nearly nothing.”
