I’LL HAVE SOME

This Week ELIZABETHTOWN

Looking for a sign

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Doreen Ossenkops of North Hudson believes that businesses in the Adirondack Park are being discriminated against.

That is what she told members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors when she addressed them Aug. 5 to voice concern about being told to remove signage for her business, the Adirondack Buffalo Company, from near the exit ramp off Exit 29 of the Adirondack Northway (I-87).

Ossenkops told the board that she had previously taken the signs down under a previous state Department of Transportation order but put them back up after her state representative told her it was okay. Ò (Sen.) Betty Little told us that a law had been passed and because we were a local farm, that we were able to put the signs back up,Ó Ossenkops said. “Then we received notification to take down our signs or we would be fined $100,000 per day and we would be charged with the removal and disposal of them.Ó

New town clock dedicated at Elizabethtown Comm.

Church

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Parishioners and community members gathered around the front of the United Church of Christ in Elizabethtown Aug. 4 to dedicate a new face for the town clock.

Rev. Fred Shaw and Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley spoke during the dedication of the new town clocks,

both placed atop the church with one facing north toward the former school and one facing west toward Main Street. Ò We have been stewards of this town clock for many years and we come here today to dedicate a new clock,Ó Shaw said. Ò It is a privilege to continue to be the stewards of this new town clock and bell.Ó During the dedication, Shaw read from a letter written by Melba Wrisley, one of three local residents who are still alive

that witnessed the dedication of the original clock in 1928, along with Helen Richards and Katherine Carson. Another resident, Paul Norton, passed away a week prior to the dedication. Ò Mrs. Hale came into each class to talk about the clock, and told us that if we listened to the clock, then we would never be late to class,Ó Shaw read from Wrisley.

Bartley also announced that one of the former clock faces will be displayed in town, either at the town hall or the Adirondack History Center Museum. Ò This is an interesting event historically because there was no town hall in 1928 and that is how the town clock came to be here,Ó Bartley said. Ò They are beautiful pieces of art and Elizabethtown history.”

Rev. Fred Shaw speaks to the crowd gathered for the dedication of the new town clock at the United Church of Christ in Elizabethtown Aug. 4. Parishoners and residents dodged the raindrops to attend the event.

Festival, Canal Splash hope to draw large crowds with music, fun

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com WESTPORT — Coming off its biggest draw of the year, the town of Westport hopes to keep the visitors coming with a pair of events Saturday, Aug. 10.

The annual Westport Festival Day in Ballard Park will be joined by the New York State Canal Splash celebration, which will be held locally at the Westport Marina.

Canal Splash

The Westport Canal Splash is part of a state-wide weekend celebrating the waterways of New York with festivities along the Champlain and Erie Canal water systems.

Events start at 11 a.m., with a book signing

by Thea Lewis, author of Ò Ghosts & Legends of Lake Champlain,” until 1 p.m. Also on hand will be James Arnosky, author of Ò Monster Hunt,Ó and Ò Shimmer and Splash,Ó who will sign books from 1 to 3 p.m.

During the singings, the Meter Maids will sing acappella four-part harmony at the Galley Restaurant. The quartet from the Champlain Valley Sweet Adeline Chorus includes members Carla Brassard, Carole Harsh, Jennifer Scofield and the chorus director Cherie LaDuke.

The Meter Maids will perform as part of the Canal Splash, one of two events in Westport Aug. 10.

Festival Day

Westport Festival Day has evolved into a day of music, food and fun, with an assist from a local jazz artist.

According to Nancy Decker of the Westport Heritage House Association, Westport Native and jazz trumpeter Taylor Haskins has gathered a few local friends to join him on stage in the Ballard Park Pavilion at the Westport Festival on Aug. 10, from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m.

The lineup begins at 11:30 a.m. with Haskins,

who will perform folk, rock and jazz music.

He will be followed by the Camp Dudley Boys Choir singing traditionals. Joan Crane and Steven Feinbloom then take to the stage, followed by bluegrass and folk artists Staber and Chas-

noff. The concluding act will be the Wadhams Waddlers.

Between acts, there will be open-mic sessions, which will feature local singers. Those interested in performing for the open-mic portion can register by the food token table starting at 11 a.m. the day of the festival.

Along with music, there will be a 5K Fun Run starting at the Library Lawn, up Stevenson Road and ending at the Library Lawn. Registration starts at 10:30 a.m., with race starting at 11 a.m. Ò HalsteadÕ s BarÓ will feature food and drinks provided by the Wadhams and Westport Volunteer Fire Departments, the Masonic Lodge and the Wadhams Library (tokens may be purchased for food and refreshments). There will also be the “Main Street Market,” with more than 20 craft vendors.

For those looking for art, the Spirit of Place Art Show and Ò The Bucket List,Ó silent auctions will be held, ending at 3 and 3:30 p.m., respectively.

Wild Character Snake, Rattle and Roll The Timber Rattlesnake is the Adirondack Park’s only poisonous snake. For a viper, it’s pretty laid back. The rocky highlands above Lake Champlain are the northern extreme of its range, which dips to the Gulf Coast of Texas. Here, it sleeps in, coming out around May, a month after its southern cousins. It stays sleepy for a while, then eventually orders rodents, smaller snakes and amphibians for dinner. Timber rattlers rarely strike at a person unless cornered and usually issue several warning rattles. www.exploringnature.org There are no recorded deaths from wild rattlesnake bites in the Adirondacks. Still an Endangered Species, it’s illegal to harm one, so don’t even think about it. Another reason we’re so...

Our featured pet this week is Clarence, a Siamese-Tabby/mix with a very unusual coat.

Clarence is a very handsome boy who always gets lots of compliments! He has sparkling blue eyes that are just a wee bit crossed which gives him a slightly befuddled look and only adds to his charm. His silky coat is a lovely mix of Siamese and Tabby. Clarence’s has a sweet, affectionate personality, with a soft little meow that simply begs you to come pick him up for a cuddle. We believe Clarence is still an adolescent, less than 2 years old - still with plenty of youthful energy and zest for life, but mature enough to leave your shoelaces alone and keep his litterbox tidy! With a quiet introduction this regal guy would fit into any household.

Please stop by our NEW shelter and check out Clarence and all our wonderful animals.

The annual summer procession of houseguests reached a near overload last weekend with five adults and two dogs staying with us. Ginny, the chief dog hereabouts, accepts other dogs guardedly, and had run-ins with both of her visitors. The human guests took in Essex Day and then we all went to AuSable Chasm. I hadn’t been there since they got rid of the iconic wooden boats years ago and switched to big inflatable whitewater rafts. I am not fond of heights and forgot about the long stretches of perilous walkway that cling to the cliff sides, dangerously far above the river.

We got thoroughly soaked going down the rapids, but as a reward for our bravery introduced our guests to the North Country’s most beloved contribution to the culinary cannon, the Michigan red hot. With onions, of course.

Indian Bay Marina back in business after flooding damage

By Laura Achouatte

denpubs@denpubs.com WILLSBORO Ñ This summer Õ s recent flooding on June 28 had no critical effects for Indian Bay Marina in Willsboro because they were ready this time.

With many daysÕ worth of rain and saturation, the marina withstood the rising water because of the renovations that Patricia Schwennker, along with brother and co-owner Joe Walsh, had recently completed on the marina and restaurant that took quite a beating in the flooding of 2011, with the building actually starting to float in the raised water. Ò There was really nothing that happened this time around,Ó said Schwennker. Ò We are quite prepared now, the building is higher than it used to be.Ó Indian Bay Marina was closed for nearly two years before reopening this summer. A lot of renovations have been done to salvage the business and bring it back up to par for the seasonal bouts of customers that frequent the marina, the staff that work there, and for Patty and Joe. Along with the actual building being raised two and half feet, the building now boasts

really been a tough experience. But, we really had a lot of support, and even when we had to lay off our staff because the marina was flooded with a foot and a half of water and ruined, they have all come back, every one of them.Ó Now that Indian Bay is up and running, the marina and restaurant is open seven days a week, spring, summer, and fall. Aside from

the damage it has incurred, the new marina came out the victor with new additions such as the mug chiller, air-conditioning, and sliding doors to the patio. Ò After having water sitting in here for weeks, and all the time it took, the marina is more accessible, and yes, I think that business has increased due to the new renovations,Ó said Schwennker. Ò We really have to thank everyone who supported us and helped us out.Ó Contributing to the re-build of Indian Bay were many friends and neighbors who helped clear out debris and damage right after the flood. Many other businesses and friends worked closely with Patty and Joe to get the building to where it needed to be, such as Dave Gowans Construction, Sheehan and Sons (who helped raise the building and do new stone work), Jimmy Lee and Rick Mero (for painting), Alan Gardner (HVAC), Nick from B&G Equipment, Michael from Mr. Sub in Albany, and patrons Bill and Marilyn Lloyd, who have honorary seats at the bar for their contribution and support.

To support Indian Bay Marina and check out the new renovations and additions since the flood of 2011, stop by the restaurant on Willsboro Point off Corlear Drive.

County fairs an important part of summer

T

he North Country is now in the midst of the annual tradition that is all about fried dough, Ferris wheels and derby

cars.

Counties throughout the state are holding their annual county fairs and festivals throughout the months of July and August.

Clinton County and Essex County have already wrapped up their shows for 2013, while Franklin County and Addison County, Vt., run through this weekend and the Washington County Fair kicks in on Aug. 19 and runs through Aug. 25.

For many communities, the county fair represents the peak of summer activities. The provide a chance for people to come together on an annual basis and provides a chance for young and old to show their crafts and promote their passions. It gives families a less expensive option when it comes to providing entertainment like rides and shows for their children then one might find at other theme parks in the region.

Most of the fairs here continue to focus on the world of agriculture, which is making a strong comeback. The world of the local farmer has experienced a renaissance of sorts during the past 10 years, and while there are still plenty of dairy farms with cattle to show and display, local produce farms are also given a county-wide stage to show and sell what they harvest.

4-H and Future Farmer’s of America organizations build their entire year around the one week every year that they have to shine at the county fair. Whether it is through competition like horse and cattle shows or displaying what they were able to do as a group, the county fair is the biggest stage that they may have the entire year. Most also conduct a major portion of their fundraising at fairs through raffles and dairy stands, selling milk, ice cream and more to help fair-goers beat the summer heat.

Fairs have also become a stage for local talent. From daily concerts for bands and performers, Ò living the dream,Ó to talent search competitions for all ages, fairs give kids and adults alike a chance to step into the spotlight in a fun and family-friendly arena.

VoiceYourOpinion Denton Publications welcomes letters to the editor.

• Letters can be sent to its offices, 14 Hand Avenue, PO Box 338, Elizabethtown, 12932 or e-mailed to johng@denpubs. com • Letters can also be submitted online at

At the same time, we would be remiss if we did not take a moment to thank all of those who make these events possible. A lot of times, all fair boards and fair leaders hear is negativity, but we want to commend them for the work they do. While the lay person only sees what happens the couple days before the fair opens through the few days past closing, members of local fair boards and agricultural societies start planning for their week of events almost as soon as the gates close. In Essex County, organizers were talking about midway and fair date options for 2014 two days before the 2013 fair ended.

It’s a lot of hard work to find the perfect fit of carnival, entertainment and attractions at the right price, and it seems the only time anyone speaks up is when — in their opinion — that fit is not right.

Not us. We want to thank you all for making the summer a little more fun for everyone at prices that are much more reasonable then any other venues can offer. Your hard work and dedication to your county and those you serve is sincerely appreciated.

We canÕ t let this editorial end without a quick word out to the Essex County Board of Supervisors. WeÕ ve heard the rumblings about shuttering the 165-year-old fair and they are quite concerning. The Essex County Fair is vital to the core of what makes Essex County a rich tradition of agriculture and conservation. Many people have sacrificed hours, blood, sweat and personal funds to make the fairgrounds and fair what it is today. ItÕ s a tradition that needs to be embraced, not used as a political chip. It should be an event organizations like the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) promote and support financially as it is part of the region they represent as the county tourism advocate.

Let us speak for many who would tell you, we want this fair, we need this fair.

So to all, get out and enjoy some time at the fair Ñ any fair Ñ and thank those who work so hard to make them possible. Ñ

Cooperation May Equal Survival

C

enturies ago, American industrialists like Rockefeller and Carnegie took Charles Darwin’s theory of the “survival of the fittest” to justify the exploitation of workers and the subsequent inequality that followed.

The long legs of these philosophies remains in effect today where wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few wealthy individuals or families like the Waltons of Wal-Mart fame.

This is the tangible expression in reality, that concentrating wealth among the few is what is best for our society as a whole. The government has also created laws that seem to support this premise as many wealthy people are afforded special treatment when it comes to paying an equitable share of taxes.

This issue was so famously championed by Warren Buffet the richest man in the world at one time, whose tax rate was less than his secretary who made $60,000 a year. This issue of wealth concentration was briefly in the news as the ninety nine per centers demonstrated against the one per centers who held most of the wealth in America. Curiously, the movement quickly lost energy and vanished.

Though often quoted and referenced, DarwinÕ s theories have been used in a manner that is inconsistent with his beliefs about the human race.

In his 1871 book, The Descent of Man, Darwin offered that humans had succeeded as a species because of traits like cooperation, caring and selflessness.

Darwin wrote that Ò those communities with the greater number of most sympathetic people would flourish and would rear the most offspring.Ó Darwin believed that wealth sharing and cooperation were more consistent with his observations about human survival than the elitism and the rigid hierarchy that dominates contemporary corporate culture. DarwinÕ s early observations seem to explain how much of our culture is currently arranged.

research to develop an evolutionary theory of human development. He identified two uniquely human elements that made humans interdependent and therefore fostered cooperation. Food was essential to the survival of our fledgling ancestors some two million years ago.

Cooling climates lead to vast open plains that required our ancestors to adapt to this new environment or perish.

They lacked the ability to hunt the large carnivores of the period and instead became scavengers of the carcasses of these large predators. The fossil record reveals that while the skeletal remains have numerous carnivore teeth marks, so do the carcasses have marks from stone tools that were used to glean the remaining flesh form the animals.

Unlike jungle dwellers, who could independently gather fruits or nuts for themselves, these early humans had to work together. As they approached the remains of a carcass they had to insure that people were on the lookout for predators that might attack them while others removed the remaining meat from the bones that then would have been shared with everyone.

These behaviors resulted in a form of natural selections that favored cooperation. There is some evidence that humans that did not adapt these sharing behaviors may have been banished.

Today researchers have shown that this evolutionary legacy of cooperation remains strong in humans, young children who are too young to have been taught cooperation have these behaviors.

A study in the journal, Nature, demonstrated that when three year old children obtained food through cooperative efforts they were much more likely to share the food than when achieved individually.

The second element of TomaselloÕ s theory holds that certain kinds of commerce are more in line with human evolution than others. Through language, cooperative food gathering and unique rituals humans developed a human interdependence not seen elsewhere.

This interdependence lead to cooperation beyond small scale cooperation to culture wide cooperative efforts that lead to greater solidarity. Corporations are the antithesis of these evolutionary lineages. Corporations impose a linear conformity that may, in time prove unworkable for the human race. More and more modern businesses around the world are run as cooperatives where a group of people set the economic and operational philosophy of the business.

Within these cooperatives control is more regional and less centralized and more open to the wishes of employees.

The single imperative of traditional corporations is to return a profit to investors. This reason alone may explain why so many Americans working in a corporate culture are unhappy and alienated from the corporation.

Often the outcomes of the corporation are not to benefit the immediate community but rather a remote group of investors that have no connection to the lives or the labors of the employees. Perhaps in time and from necessity, the Ò survival of the fitness” will be relegated to an obscure corner of our national psyche.

The challenges that face us as a nation, a planet and as the human race may finally force us to revert to the cooperative strategies that helped to create the human race, a race that in my opinion we are starting to look less certain.

Remember, all kids count.

PLATTSBURGH — The Travis Capen Memorial Scholarship Golf Tournamentwill be held Sept. 19, with a noon start time at The Barracks in Plattsburgh. Format will be a four person scramble. Cost is $200 per team with $20 optional skins.

Doreen Ossenkops speaks to the Essex County Board of Supervisors.

Road signs

Continued from page 1 Ossenkops said the signage has made a big difference for her business. Ò Since the signs went back up, our business has gone up dramatically,Ó she said. Ò I feel business people in the Adirondack Park are being discriminated against. No other part of the state has to deal with this. It is not only a hardship for us but for all of the businesses in the Adirondacks that cannot have signs up to let people know how to get there.Ó Ossenkops said the state gave her an extension until Labor Day to remove the signs, but in her mind, more needs to be done. Ò We did get an extension, which will help us with the summer month but will not help us in the fall, which is normally a busy time for us,Ó she said. Ò I want to put in my two cents for the businesses not only in Essex County but throughout the Adirondack Park that we feel we are being discriminated against.Ó The county board agreed with Ossenkops, passing a resolution, “urging New York State to amend transportation law to allow signage on exit and entrance ramps on the Adirondack Northway within the Adirondack Park.Ó Ò Sen. Little and (North Hudson Supervisor) Mr. (Ronald) Moore were in Albany recently advocating on your behalf and (Minerva Supervisor) Mrs. Montgomery-Corey and I jumped in on that to support you,” County Chairman Randy Douglas of Jay said. Ò We will advocate on your behalf.Ó Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley said the resolution was about more than just providing added advertisement for local businesses. Ò I live on Route 9 near Route 73 in New Russia and people stop in the middle of the night at my house to ask where to find gas or for directions because there are no signs, so it can become a public safety issue as well,Ó Bartley said.

Depot Theatre

Continued from page 1 McCormick, who has been at the Depot for 34 of the companyÕ s 35 years, is excited for this yearÕ s event, especially since it is being held at DaCy Meadow Farms, located at 7103 Route 9N between the theater and I-87.

The Gala, McCormick explained, is a coming out party of sorts for DaCy Meadow as well. The farm, which features farm-to-table Ò localvoreÓ dining and lodging, has hosted smaller events such as weddings, but never a celebration on this scale. Ò ItÕ s a very new experience, and they are working very hard, theyÕ re adding a lot of aspects to their facility in preparation for the gala, as a groundworks for doing other such events there,” McCormick said.

The Gala, their biggest fundraising event of the year, will benefit the Depot Theatre’s professional theater programs, as well as their outreach and youth activities. Ò ItÕ s kind of a really kicky, fun experience,” McCormick said. Ò I think one of the things that a theater can do is to do an event (like this) really well.

ThereÕ s always surprises to it and itÕ s always whimsical.Ó

Amazing Grace Vinyard and Winery in Chazy will be providing table wine for the Gala, and GioiosaÕ s Wine and Spirits from Plattsburgh is providing the champagne. Other major sponsors are Lake Placid Pub and Brewery in Lake Placid and WhistlePig Rye Whiskey in Shelburne, Vt. Ò WeÕ re almost ready. Fortunately we have another two weeks to prepare,Ó said Managing Director Angel Wuellner.

In the midst of the preparations for the Gala, the show Boeing-Boeing is nearing its closing Aug. 4. The theater company is preparing to unveil their newest show, the musical Funked Up Fairy Tales starting Aug. 9. Also in the works is Lombardi, a play about legendary football coach Vince Lombardi.

The theaterÕ s lobby is also currently playing host to to a Ò sap bucket art show,Ó where local artists were given a sap bucket to use as their canvas.

The colorful buckets ring the walls above the historic train depot benches.

There is also a jurried art show slated to run from Aug. 21 to Sept. 18.

Those interested in attending the Gala can contact the Depot Theatre box office at 518-962-4449.

NCCC budget

Continued from page 1 $14,625,300, with $1,190,000 as Essex County’s share.

Out of the Essex County share, which has remained steady for the past three years, $1,140,000 will go toward the expense of operating while $50,000 will be put toward the Capital Building Fund.

The lone vote against the funding was WillsboroÕ s Ed Hatch, who said last week that he does not feel the county can afford paying for the institution. Ò I will continue to vote no because I do not believe we can afford it,Ó Hatch said. Ò We are going to hear the same rhetoric in November and here these people sit in and never get cut back. I do not think that this is in the best interest in what community colleges are for.Ó Prior to the vote, the county held a public hearing on the matter, which received no public comments in person or written.

Both Essex and Franklin counties are asked to approve matching amounts for the support of the college, which has campuses in Saranac Lake, Malone and Ticonderoga.

Book N Blanket Players present Pride and Prejudice musical KEENE VALLEY — This year marks the 200th anniversary of the publication of Jane AustenÕ s novel Ò Pride and PrejudiceÓ so what could be more appropriate than the production of a new musical adapted from her classic novel.

Kathleen Recchia of Jay (who has portrayed poet Emily Dickinson throughout the North Country) has been working on this musical for about six years but it wasnÕ t until the subject matter captured the interest of her musicianson Sam that the project zoomed into high gear and became a reality.

Recchia has written all the lyrics and some of the melodies, but, as she says, Ò IÕ m just a plunker. IÕ ve never taken any music theory course and donÕ t follow any musical rules. So I needed someone - in this case, my son - to make music out of all this.Ó Other musicians have offered guidance, tips and some sort of framework along the way, but it is recent Keene Central School graduate, Sam Balzac, who has put it all together including overture, scene change music, and orchestration.

The play will be produced through the Book & Blanket Players Youth Theatre sponsored by East Branch Friends of the Arts. It will be per-

formed on Saturday, Aug. 10 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Aug. 11 at 3 p.m., following a week-long intensive theatre workshop at Keene Central School in Keene Valley.

Recchia has directed these musicals with the kids before, including an original musical that she and her son wrote called, Ò Road to Dannemora.Ó But she is concerned that this year will be even more challenging. Ò IÕ ve left much of Jane AustenÕ s language intact because I love it so. But it will be like teaching the kids Shakespeare,Ó she said.

The cast of this original musical production of Ò Pride and PrejudiceÓ consists of 27 students ranging in age from 8 to 18. Balzac (who is also assistant directing) will take on the role of Mr. Darcy. Jessica Kemp of Saranac Lake is Elizabeth Bennet. The kids are primarily from the North Country but there are even students from the Catskills, Long Island, and Massachusetts, coming to join the North Country cast.

The performances are free but donations will be accepted to help defray costs.

For reservations or to learn more about the musical, “Pride and Prejudice” call 946-8323 and check out the facebook page for Book & Blanket Players.

“Pride and Prejudice, the Musical,” will open at Keene Central School Aug. 10.

Dozens of authors slated for big night at Hoss’s Aug. 13 Adirondack Authors Night enters 29th year

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com LONG LAKE — The big red-and-white tent behind Hoss’s Country Corner will be jam-packed with authors, artists and musicians Tuesday, Aug. 13 during the 29th Annual Adirondack Authors Night.

As of press time, there were 81 authors signed up, according to Lorrie Hosley, of HossÕ s.

Last year there were 70 and it was pretty full. Ò So everybody better be praying for nice weather,Ó Hosley said. Ò If thereÕ s nice weather, thereÕ s no problem, but if we all have to get under the tent with the sides down, weÕ re going to be pretty squished.Ó One reason for the increase is that many authors simply remembered to keep the date open, and many were available this year. Adirondack Authors Night happens the same evening each year, from 7 to 9 p.m. the second Tuesday in August.

Another reason is the increase in new books, which are typically released during the summer reading season, and the Authors Night is one place to see them first, get them signed and ask the authors questions.

Ò There are a lot of new books out there,Ó Hosley said. Ò ItÕ s pretty exciting.Ó People are welcome to bring copies of books they own to get them signed. Or theyÕ ll have plenty of reading material to buy for the long winter reading season. There is no admission for this event.

Some of the attending authors with new fiction and non-fiction books include: Phil Brown, Ò Adirondack Paddling”; Carol Gregson, “Wet Socks”; Yvona Fast, “Garden Gourmet” cookbook”; Kim and Pam Ladd, Ò Happy Hour in the High PeaksÓ ; Justin and Carol VanRiper, “Adirondack Kids 13: The Blackfly Bad GuyÓ ; Mason Smith, Ò Far AlaskaÓ ; and Gail Huntley, “Conquering the Wild.” Plus, folk musician Dan Berggren has a new CD, “Tongues in Trees,Ó and author/illustrator Sheri Amsel has a new illustrated Champlain Valley map.

The other authors and musicians will be: •Speedy Arnold •Jodi Auborn • Lynne Ballou •Larry Brahan •Nancy Best •Hallie Bond •Patti Brooks •Neal Burdick •Diane Chase •Dave Cilley •Caleb Davis •Barbara Delaney •Dave Donohue •Russell Dunn

Jill Jones and author Larry Gooley, of Bloated Toe Enterprises, will be at the 29th annual Adirondack Authors Night from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 13 at Hoss’s Country Corner in Long Lake.

Ò Allison (McGahay, Republican Commissioner) and I actually started in the office at about the same time and we compliment each others skills very well,Ó Whitney added.

Whitney steps into the Democratic chair post a little more than a month before the

September primaries. Ò It is a very important local election year and the primaries are less than five weeks away,Ó Whitney said. Ò Everyone in this office will work hard to make sure that the primary and November elections run smoothly.Ó Whitney was approved by the county board during its Aug. 5 monthly full board meeting, but not unanimous-

ly. Sixteen supervisors voted in favor of the appointment including Chesterfield’s Gerald Morrow and ElizabethtownÕ s Margaret Bartley, who offered and seconded the resolution, respectively.

North Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore voted against the appointment, while Westport Supervisor Dan Connell was absent.

The Essex County Demo-

cratic Committee, led by former Crown Point Supervisor Bethany Kosmider, made the recommendation to hire Whitney on July 25. The recommendation was brought before the county Ways and Means Committee before heading to the full board, where Moore was the lone dissenting vote both times.

Winter Carnival book to be released SARANAC LAKE — Hungry Bear Publishing will release the first book to explore the history and culture of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Thursday, Aug. 15 during the Third Thursday Art Walk.

Author Andy Flynn will be signing copies of his latest book, “Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Memories,” from 5 to 7:30 p.m. in front of Rice Furniture at 43 Main St., Saranac Lake, as part of the Art Walk festivities. This will be the official release of the book.

“Saranac Lake will finally have a book to celebrate its largest and most important special event, the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival,” Flynn said. Ò IÕ m excited to be able to produce this volume for a community that has given so much to me and my family. It would not have been possible without the support of the Winter Carnival Committee, our business sponsors, and the dozens of people we interviewed.”

“Memories” is 440 pages and includes 75 interviews, more than 300 photos, history and essays from Flynn and others. It also includes a full timeline compiled by Saranac Lake historians and images of all the Garry Trudeau buttons from 1981 to 2013. The book is told in the oral history tradition, meaning the interviews were printed as they were spoken. Ò I felt it was important to tell the history of the Winter Carnival in the first person,” Flynn said. Ò These are the voices of the people who have made the Winter Carnival what it is today, from organizers to residents and tourists.”

This book answers the question, Ò What is the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival?” Flynn uses the

2012 and 2013 Winter Carnivals as examples of how this 10-day festival is operated. Readers will get a behind-the scenes view from Carnival Committee members, and they will meet residents, visitors and royalty who have memories to share.

The 10 chapters are: The Theme; Carnival Committee; Ice Palace; Royalty; Gala Parade; Other Events; Community Life; Some History; Mementos; and The Future. The chapter sponsors are the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, Casualty Actuarial Services LLC, Blue Line Brewery, Lakeview Deli, Rice Furniture, Small Fortune Studio and WoodyÕ s Brats & Hots.

The Saranac Lake Winter Carnival dates to 1897, when the Pontiac Club held a one-day festival and now includes a communitywide celebration with an Ice Palace, two parades, three fireworks displays, and a number of sports and cultural events. It is held in early February each year.

Flynn is the author of the six-volume Ò Adirondack AtticÓ book series and is currently the Assistant Managing Editor for Denton Publications in Elizabethtown, where he also serves as Editor of the North Creek News Enterprise.

He is also a correspondent for North Country Public Radio and a member of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee.

Learn more about ordering a copy of Ò Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Memories” on the Hungry Bear Publishing website or by calling Andy Flynn at (518) 891-5559. The book retails for $24.95. For more information, visit www. hungrybearpublishing.com.

Bridge workshops set Harpist Martha Gallagher to Guided hike slated ESSEX Ñ Martha Gallagher will perform her one-woman show, The Wonders of This World, as part of the Essex Community Concert Series at The Essex Community Church, 2743 NYS Rt. 22, on Aug. 9 at 7:30 p.m.

Proceeds from the event will go to support the Essex Community Concert Series. Admission is a $10 donation.

Gallagher, an acclaimed singer and songwriter affectionately known in the region as Ò The Adirondack Harper,Ó adds the unusual twist in that her instrument of choice is the harp. She dispels the stereotypical image of the harp, playing her original songs that range from wailing blues to Latin grooves, from touches of Celtic to Classical inspirations, and from Swingin’ Jazz to richly varied contemporary Americana/folk/roots. With the comfort of a natural-born storyteller and actress, she weaves together the array of musical, poetic and theatrical elements, creating a one-woman show full of insights, inspirations, humor, warmth and joy.

Gallagher ’s most current CD, The Water is Wide, was created as a benefit in 2011 for Irene flood relief in the Adirondacks, raising over 14,000. When not on tour, Gallagher resides in the Adirondack region of northeastern upstate NY. For more information email adkharper@adkharper.com.

These workshops, led by Certified Backwoods Instructor Sean Kullman, will instruct participants in how to select nearby trees for bridge construction, move and prepare them for use, and build a natural bridge. Ò Our trails go through forests and fields with the goal of having them link our communities,” said Chris Maron, CATS’ executive director. Ò They cross streams and wet areas where bridges would be very helpful. At many sites, using nearby trees is the most practical way to build

The Joyful Youth Choir

Local teens come together in song

Fun runs conclude Monday

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE — Teens from St. AlexanderÕ s in Morrisonville, St. AugustineÕ s in Peru and The Roman Catholic Community of Keeseville have come together to form the Joyful Youth Choir.

Formed in the spirit of Pope Emeritus Benedict’s “Year of Faith,” the choirÕ s goal is to involve students in sharing their faith through music.

The choir, consisting of 16 teens from the three parishes, is mentored by Ron Goddeau and pianist/conductor Dennis Frisbie, both from Peru. Ò WeÕ re fortunate that there was enough talent across the three parishes that, even though we have a really small group, we were lucky enough to have a good cross section of voices,” said co-organizer Brenda Smith.

The group has been rehearsing for 12 weeks, and their unique arrange-

ments and classic favorites are nearly ready to be unveiled. They perform various styles of music, including songs like Ò Lord of the Dance,Ó “Swing Low Sweet Chariot,” and Ò When the Saints Go Marching In.Ó Ò ItÕ s something a little bit different that hasnÕ t been tried in this

area,Ó said Goddeau.

“You always hear about the kids who are in trouble. These are the kids you donÕ t hear about,Ó Goddeau added.

The Joyful Youth Choir will perform Aug. 17 at 7 p.m. at St. Augustine’s Church in Peru, and Aug. 18 at

7 p.m. at St. John the Baptist Church in Keeseville.

Above: The Joyful Youth Choir take a break during a recent rehearsal. Pianist/ conductor Dennis Frisbie is to the far right.

CLINTONVILLE — Thirty two competitors, the most in the series to date, participated in the AuSable Valley Fun Run/Walk Aug. 5 at AuSable Valley Middle School High School. The final in the series will be Monday, Aug. 12.
