QUEENSBURY — Union worker Jerry Girard stood behind a banner among a dozen of his peers welcoming U.S. Sen Schumer (DNY) Monday Feb. 20 to a plot of land in Tech Meadows business park — where his pipefitters’ union will soon be constructing a training center. The facility is envisioned to instruct job-seekers and workers from all over northern New York in high-technology skills.

As Schumer read from a prepared statement about how he’d lobby for $750,000 to $1 million in federal job training funds for the training center, he paused to gather his thoughts.

Jerry Girard, of Warrensburg and Glens Falls, tilted his hard-hat and finished the senator ’s sentence.

“Local jobs for local people,” Girard said.

Schumer smiled, and seconded the thought.

“We want Glens Falls at the center of the action, with

this weekend with a host of family-oriented activities — despite a lack of snow or lake ice, Carnival organizers said Monday.

Headlining the two-day winter festival will be the Children’s Olympics at 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, followed

by the traditional crowd-favorite, the Polar Plunge at 3 p.m., featuring dozens of swimmers braving the frigid waters.

While the motorized races atop the lake are shelved due to the lack of ice, a wide variety of activities will be re

County leaders gamble on fire training facility

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com

Local footraces join forces Two early-summer fundraising footraces in Warrensburg have been combined into one that is dedicated this year to the late Brent Bertrand, the beloved local high school technology teacher, mentor and coach.

The Warrensburg community-based Playground Fund and the regional High Peaks Hospice agency have joined forces to present the Burgher Dash/Run for your Life 5K footrace, to be held Saturday June 2.

High Peaks development director Sunday Conine, a Warrensburg High School graduate, said she felt the race dedication was an appropriate way to honor Bertrand’s memory and celebrate his attributes that inspired so many students.

Bertrand, who died unexpectedly in January, was once Conine’s shop teacher. “‘Mr. B’, as he was affectionately known, had a singular knack of making each student feel special and valued,” she said, noting that the collaboration was with the intention to expand the hospice agency’s reach and increase participation.

QUEENSBURY — With a grant deadline looming and taxpayer money at risk, Warren County's leaders decided Feb. 17 to purchase a $119,000 prefabricated building as the initial facility of a bicounty firefighters' training center.

The Warren County Board of Supervisors cast their vote of approval after assessing the risks of spending $200,000 or more on the building which might not be reimbursed if the building were not erected and ready for use by March 31, when a deadline for a state grant is effective. The grant covers about 90 percent of the costs.

Five county supervisors – Fred Monroe of Chester, William Kenny and Bud Taylor from Glens Falls and Matt Sokol and William Mason of Queensbury voted against going ahead with constructing the building.

Monroe argued that the project, despite its merits, posed a risk for taxpayer money if the building wasn't in place in less than six weeks, and that other similar grant money might be available in the future. But the other 15 supervisors voted for constructing the building after hearing the pleas of

county Emergency Services Director Brian LaFlure.

“I implore you to move ahead with this, it's a great project,” he said, noting that firefighters from all over, including those employed by area paper mills, would likely be using it.

This “mask confidence” instructional building would be used to train firefighters from the two counties, familiarizing them with firefighting strategies and equipment.

The Washington County Board of Supervisors, partners in the project, also approved the building purchase Feb. 17.

The facility is to be constructed off Queensbury Ave. in Queensbury.

For years, area firefighters have had to travel for hours to attend training sessions. The building is the first facility of a fire training campus, which has been envisioned for nearly a decade.

In the mid-2000s, a $4.7 million structure had been proposed, originally at Adirondack Community College. The conceptual center was moved to a 32acre site near the Warren County airport after concerns were raised. The project has been envisioned as a method of boosting membership in local fire departments as well as keeping firefighters' training up-to-date.

LaFlure noted that the county has a $146,000 set aside in a capital fund for the project, but $200,000 in engineering services will need to be spent on the center, a figure that prompted questions from Queensbury Supervisor-at-large David Strainer.

But two upcounty supervisors expressed solid support.

“We owe it to our emergency volunteers, and it's time to move ahead on this,” Horicon Town Supervisor Ralph Bentley said.

“It's a bit of a gamble, but the facility is much needed and it will be a well-used facility,” Thurman Town Supervisor Evelyn Wood said, moments before the affirmative vote occurred.

Property tax exemption deadline approaching WA R R E N S B U R G — Property tax exemptions have to be filed for by March 1, in order to be eligible for tax reductions in the 2012 2013 year.

Resident property owners may be eligible for four different exemptions on their primary residence: • Basic STAR is a school tax exemption that the property owner only needs to ap-

ply for once. It has no age requirement, but the applicant’s federally adjusted gross income must be less than $500,000.

• Senior Enhanced STAR is a school tax exemption for property owners that turn 65 or older during 2012 and have a federally adjusted gross income of $79,050 or less. Property owner must register and qualify annual-

ly with their local assessor.

• Senior Low Income exemption applies to School plus town and county taxes.

The applicant must be 65 and meet income requirements. Property owner must register and qualify annually with the assessor.

• Veteran’s Exemption applies to county and town taxes only. The resident property owner must have

been honorably discharged from active duty. The spouse of the veteran, and the unremarried surviving spouse of the veteran and a Gold Star parent may also be eligible.

Property owners are urged to check with their local assessor for more details before the March 1 deadline.

All exemptions, which must be filed by March 1, and they require that the owner live on the property as their primary residence.

Wbg. leaders weigh new zoning laws, shift in streetlight costs

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Development of light commercial enterprises and home-based offices are to be encouraged in the Kings Addition neighborhood, according to suggested zoning changes presented Feb. 3 to the Town Board.

The proposals are an outgrowth of the recently completed town Comprehensive Plan which outlines various strategies for economic and job growth, community revitalization and hamlet sustainability.

Jaclyn Hakes, former principal planner for Saratoga Springs and now with Elan Planning, presented the zoning map to Warrensburg town board members.

The zoning changes — which include reducing the number of districts from 11 districts to seven as well as including provisions intended for more land-use flexibility — are subject to public hearings set for 7 p.m. March 7 and March 14.

The Comprehensive Plan, developed by local citizens over two years, calls for encouraging the development of apartments in second stories above downtown storefronts, fostering home-based businesses, establishing downtown architectural design guidelines, and boosting access to local recreational resources.

During the meeting, the town board debated dissolving the lighting district, which provides street lights through most of the hamlet. The action would shift the cost of the street lighting, $85,000 or so annually, from just the district residents to all property owners in the town.

Now, district residents pay 36 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation for the lights. If the district were dissolved, all residents would pay 24 or 25 cents per thousand for the lighting through the general town tax.

Town board member Linda Marcella, who owns property several miles north of the

hamlet, said the proposal was flawed.

“Should people who receive no benefit from the lighting have to pay for it?” she said.

Board member John Alexander responded that the street lights are boost public safety for all town residents, as everyone travels through the hamlet, or conducts their business there — and the streetlights minimize nighttime traffic problems.

“While some object to what they call ‘light pollution,’ others see it as a matter of providing walkability and commerce downtown,” he said.

Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty, while professing neutrality on the issue, said that the streetlights can be compared with the

landfill — not everyone uses it, but they all share the expense.

“The lights are important to the community,” he said, adding that he had no strong opinions on the issue. Another public hearing on the issue is to be held in March.

In other business, Geraghty announced that the town board will likely be raising the maximum income limit on senior exemptions on town taxes from $12,000 to $18,000 or higher. He noted that Warrensburg has one of the lowest income caps among all Warren County communities, and an increase was overdue.

Geraghty observed that commercial customers of the town water system were having their meters installed and activated. This

is an initial effort in converting from a flat fee system towards having all water customers pay for actual gallons used.

Board member Bryan Rounds said commercial meters were now being read to provide baseline data to establish equitable charges that would adequately cover the local water district’s costs.

“It’s a work in progress,” he said.

Geraghty noted that the car wash property on Richards Ave. downtown, which was excavated years ago to remove petroleum pollution, would likely be cleared later this year by the state for redevelopment.

Geraghty noted that a public information session on the car wash environmental cleanup is set for 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday Feb. 21 at the state Department of Environmental Conservation headquarters in Warrensburg on Hudson St. Extension. Geraghty remarked that DEC’s pending sign-off on the project was welcome but overdue.

With the car wash soon to be available for redevelopment, he said, one designated brownfield would be left in town — the former Warrensburg Board & Paper Mill on state Rte. 418. Located on the banks of Queen Village Pond, the plot will someday host a town park, Geraghty said.

Concluding the board meeting, Jane LeCount suggested that senior housing be developed on hillside property behind Holy Cross Episcopal Church. Resident Ruth Fruda, however, noted that while such a development might be scenic, it would be handier for seniors to walk to downtown businesses if such apartments were built in the hamlet, rather than on a hillside.

At this point, Steve Parisi stood up and noted that LeCount, who is in her eighties and now officially retiring from real estate sales — had been the co-founder of the World’s Largest Garage Sale, which started as a small fest and now commands nationwide fame. The audience responded with a round of applause for LeCount.

AT&T fires up new cell phone tower in region, offers more coverage THURMAN — AT&T recently announced the activation of a new mobile broadband cell site in Warren County.

New areas of coverage for residents and businesses in Adirondack Park include Daggett Pond, Pack Forest Lake and along Route 28 between Warrensburg and Wevertown.

“Every activation means better economic opportunity and improved life saving communication here in the Adirondacks,” said Sen. Betty Little (R-Queensbury). “AT&T understands the uniqueness of our region and has worked very closely with us, local elected officials and the Adirondack Park Agency to expand coverage. I’m thankful for their continuing effort and each new success.”

With mobile broadband speeds, AT&T customers can surf

the Web, download files faster, and enjoy the latest interactive mobile applications.

The new cell site is one part of AT&T’s ongoing efforts to drive investment and innovation to deliver the nation’s best, most advanced mobile broadband experience for customers.

“Our goal is for our customers to have an extraordinary experience throughout Adirondack Park. As part of the community, we’re always looking for new opportunities to provide enhanced coverage, and our investment in the local wireless network is just one way we’re accomplishing that and helping to drive the local economy,” said Robert Holliday, vice president and general manager Upstate New York AT&T.

Sen. Schumer from page 1

Backed up by steamfitters’ union members, U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer (left) talks at a press conference Monday Feb. 20 about how he’ll be lobbying for a federal grant of $750,000 to $1 million to bankroll technical training in hazardous materials cleanup, to be offered at the union’s training center soon to be constructed in Tech Meadows business park in Queensbury. Glens Falls Mayor Jack Diamond, (right) welcomed Schumer to the city-owned park.

local workers getting the jobs that are available — and I will go to bat and do what I can to bring this grant home,” he said.

Schumer talked Monday at a press conference attended by about 50 business leaders about his support of job growth and economic development in the Glens Falls region and the state’s northern counties.

He noted how General Electric’s ongoing $1 billion PCB dredging project, in its initial phase, had employed 500 workers around the clock, and they had received intensive training hazardous materials handling. But many of those at work on the GE project cleaning up the Hudson River were brought in from neighboring states due to their advanced skills, Schumer said.

A local training center, focusing on developing such skills, could combat this importation of workers, he said, adding that specialized skills were also needed by potential employees of the GlobalFoundries semiconductor plant recently established in Malta.

“I want workers here to be ‘in’ on the action,” Schumer said. “This will help train people for good-paying jobs for which there’s a real need.”

Local No. 773 of the United Association of Plumbers & Steamfitters is seeking this U.S. Environmental Protection Agency brownfields grant that would bankroll training in hazardous materials cleanup procedures.

The union represents workers, many of them in the construction or technical trades, from Saratoga County north to the Canadian border.

Schumer said the EPA grant would also train workers in lead paint removal and asbestos abatement.

Scott Martel, the union’s business manager, said such training would be hosted at their $5 million 18,000-square-feet training center, which is expected to be constructed and in use by the end of this year.

from page 1 advice from a financial consultant, Swan said.

“Let's strike while the iron's hot,” he said, urging the supervisors to take advantage of interest rates before they might increase.

“Let's do this quickly.”

Swan noted that the refinancing idea had emerged from talk circulating during the recent New York State Association of Counties convention in Albany.

County Administrator Paul Dusek warned the supervisors that there was no guarantee of savings, because a drastic change in prevailing interest rates could occur while arranging for the refinancing — a process that could take until March 20 or so. If interest rates jump within the next 30 days, the county could ditch the refinancing effort, Dusek said, just before putting the bond out for bid.

“We're not going to do a negative deal,” he said.

In other business, the county board: • Approved a law granting Warren County planners the authority to review planning and zoning issues referred to them by local towns – effectively taking place of the county planning

at Tech Meadows — is expected to include a “clean room” environment intended to arm workers with specialized skills necessary for jobs in the semiconductor, solar power and medical device industries, Glens Falls Economic Development Director Ed Bartholomew said.

“This center will train new workers and retrain those already employed, giving them the opportunity for good jobs,” he said.

Plans for the 40-acre park call for it to host eight buildings totaling well over 400,000 square feet. Situated in Queensbury but owned by Glens Falls, the park is located off the intersection of Luzerne and Veterans roads, just northeast of Northway Exit 18.

In welcoming Schumer to Tech Meadows, Glens Falls Mayor Jack Diamond noted that the two building sites nearest Luzerne Road are “shovel ready” — complete with water and sewer lines paid with a $765,336 grant Schumer helped obtain in 2010. Those sewer and water lines are expected to be extended to the other six lots this year, Diamond said, adding that he expects the training center ’s presence to prompt other enterprises to locate in Tech Meadows.

“This center will spark a snowball effect and fill up the park,” he predicted.

Schumer noted that greater Glens Falls and the Capital Region were gaining jobs faster than most all areas of the state.

“I wish everywhere in New York State was doing as well as Glens Falls,” he said.

More flood aid forthcoming?

On another topic, Schumer said he was aware of the 2011 flood devastation in Essex, Schoharie, Greene and northern Warren counties, and he would be lobbying for money to be released as soon as possible for area communities to restore infrastructure.

He noted he’d fought for the recent commitment of $200 million in a “second wave” of funds to recover from flood damages and rebuild. Schumer aide Steve Mann said this new funding was primarily targeted to spur economic development in flood-ravaged areas.

board, which was recently disbanded.

• Authorized the sale of two parcels of land known as the old Glens Falls-Lake George Road to adjoining property owner Daniel Ellsworth at the price of $2,100.

• Approved the use of the county airport this year for two hot-air balloon fests – the Adirondack Balloon Festival in September and the Sunkiss Balloon Festival in July.

• Passed a resolution seeking a Home Rule request from the state legislature to enable formation of a railway authority for the county in conjunction with the town of Corinth. The county's legal advisors say a railway authority would streamline the cumbersome decision-making process involved in overseeing the revitalized rail operations through the county, while limiting taxpayers' liability exposure.

• Voted to move the Warrensburg senior mealsite from the First United Methodist Church parish hall to the Countryside Adult Home as soon as the state Dept. of Health approves Countryside as a new site.

• Approved spending $15,000 on infrastructure

needs of the Big Apple Circus for their two-week series of shows at Charles Wood Park in Lake George, where the renowned circus' “big-top” tent will be erected.

• Authorized the changeover of the westbound lane of West Brook Road to be converted into a parking lot and to change the configuration of entrances and exits.

• Decided to allow United Health Care and Fidelis Care to review and assist with Medicaid Managed Care applications at the county Municipal Center, with a goal of reducing the Medicaid costs that the county taxpayers shoulder.

• Expanded the authority of the county Tourism Director to execute agreements and spend money with various contractors and vendors – increasing the expenditure limit without county board approval up to $2,000.

• Voted to establish an “Alive at 25” driver safety program for county residents ages 16 to 25.

www.adirondackjournal.com Many in town recall that years ago we took our own leftovers to the dump and then sat in our cars and watched the hungry bears rummage through the dump for a snack!

Activities and events in the hills

Over the fence This crazy weather in the southern Adirondacks — ranging from near zero to temperatures in the 40s — hasn't been seen here for at least a generation. Some local folks were astonished to note that on Feb. 10, they had several little crocus flowers sprouting already. According to some climate experts, global warming has been causing the jetstream to shift from year to year, often bringing temperate weather up north.

Those Thurman residents who are unable to take their garbage and recyclables to the town transfer station, call Irv West – he said he's likely to do it for a contribution of any amount. Money contributed beyond the cost of fuel will be used to fund the work he does with troubled youth. Residents can call West from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. any day at 623-3987 to arrange a pick-up time. If you get his voice mail, leave a message and he'll call back.

In addition, several other local men have offered to pick up trash for their neighbors.

Also, despite the great distances between settlements in town, Ace Carting has offered to pick up trash for households in the towns of Thurman and Johnsburg. They are now picking up trash weekly for about 100 families, despite regardless of the high cost of their fuel required for their garbage truck. Ace Carting furnishes each household with one can for garbage and another for all recyclables. All for a monthly payment that is competitive with curbside pickup in metropolitan areas.

placing the spectator events. Children’s games, crafts and zumba will be offered from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. both days inside King Neptune’s Restaurant.

Back again this week by popular demand is the ATV poker run, which had 65 participants this past week, and games for youth and adults, whether it’s a hula hoop contest or a horseshoe competition.

Monster truck rides, a big hit this year, will be offered at the Charles Wood Park, where tethered balloon rides will also be offered.

Also popular has been the Tubby Tube slide in Shepard Park.

The Carnival’s annual Chicken-Wing Cookoff will take place at noon Saturday near the Shepard's Park pier, and Rich Moran's Professional Scuba Center personnel will be conducting ice diving demonstrations

both days.

Also planned for the Carnival this weekend is a chicken wing cookoff, the last in four cooking competitions that have prompted a record participation.

A bonfire on Shepard Park beach, to be held at Saturday at 4 p.m., has been a crowd favorite each Saturday in February.

It features marshmallow roasting and participants creating their own s’mores with the savory ingredients provided. This heartwarming family activity, with Richie Ortiz leading campfire songs, is followed by fireworks.

Both Saturday and Sunday, activities include a children's mini-zoo — on Saturday from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. with alpacas, and on Sunday from noon to 2 p.m. featuring mini-donkeys.

To top off the conclusion of the Winter Carnival, a raffle drawing will be held at 3:30 p.m. Sunday for a new snowmobile. Raffle

The ladies' Bible study group of Thurman Baptist Church welcomes everyone to stop by their meeting at 9:30 a.m.

Tuesday Feb. 28 at the church on South Johnsburg Road. For directions or details, call 623-2007.

The Thurman quilting club has expanded its series of sessions to every Monday evening, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Monday Feb. 27 and all are welcome to attend — particularly all crafters, whether it's knitting, crocheting or whatever. Drop in and enjoy the socializing – even those who just need an evening out. Monday The Glens Falls YMCA will be opening their doors from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday March 2 for all children ages 5 through 11 for a free night of crafts, games, open gym and swimming.

News from town hall A job position as town hall cleaner is open, and a two positions on the Board of Assessment Review, with five-year tenures, are also open. To apply for these positions, send a letter of interest to P.O. Box 129, Athol, 12810. Include phone number and other vital details. The deadline for applications is March 9.

On March 1, celebrating are Ricky Bartlett, Jackie Dingman, Mattie Castro, Melissa Vanselous and Tammy Moon, and on tickets are available at the Winter Carnival headquarters in Shepard's Park, and entrants do not have to be present to win.

Event spokeswoman Nancy Nichols said Monday that she expected this weekend’s Carnival finale for 2012 to host large crowds despite the lack of ice.

She said that the Carnival organizers had demonstrated forethought several years ago, when there was no ice, to plan a wide range of family-oriented events on shore.

“We got double-whammied this year with the lack of ice and lack of snow,” she said. “But we’ve become very inventive with our activities.”

The weekly cook-offs was one of the new events.

This past week, it was so popular that a waiting line extended far into Shepard Park, Nichols said.

Adirondack Journal Editorial

Boat washing plan needs more scrutiny

N

o one would argue that efforts should be taken to keep Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) out of the Queen of American Lakes.

No one would argue that the introduction of these species is detrimental to the ecosystem, to water quality, to intakes and pipes, or that it costs millions to eradicate them once introduced.

No one would argue that the lake steward program, overseen by the Lake George Association, has been a success, or that legislation making it illegal to introduce invasive species into Lake George was ill-conceived.

All of that makes perfect sense.

What doesn’t make sense is the agenda of a minority of the Lake George Park Commission whose goal seems to be gating every boat launch and placing uniformed invasive species police in place to inspect every vessel.

What doesn’t make sense is to punish the boaters who cannot afford a pricey dock slip yet still want to enjoy this breathtaking lake as often as those who can.

What doesn’t make sense is to drive away the area’s life-blood in the form of tourists, fishermen and day-trippers with expensive boat washing fees and long lines when they can easily travel to other communities to spend their money without the headaches.

Yet that is what we see materializing should the boat washing plan forge ahead as proposed by the Committee on Invasive Species Spread Prevention — a three-man subset of the Lake George Park Commission.

The group has been lobbying hard with local officials and environmental groups for a full scale, lake-wide boat inspection and washing program that would place sentries at boat launches, and send boats suspected of contamination to a central washing facility, where they would be hosed down with 140-degree water.

At an average of $30 a pop.

In theory, the idea of asking transient boaters to wash their boats before launching in Lake George is a good one. It has been the objective of the LGA’s lake steward program since its inception.

But the plan currently on the table seems to evoke more questions than provide answers.

For example — when would the launches be open to the public? Fishermen like to get an early start, others like to watch the Thursday night fireworks downtown. Would launches be open at these times?

And how about the mandatory two-week drying period required after a boat is pulled from the water. If you’re lucky, we get about a

three-month boating season in these parts. If you have to wait two weeks between launches, that would allow about six times out without a $30 washdown.

It is expensive enough for those who live off the lake to access it — asking them to fork over $30 several times a year is simply not practical.

The lake was put here for everyone to enjoy.

Let’s keep it that way.

At the same time, this system would rely on the word of the person launching the boat.

If faced with the decision of telling a little white lie to the 21-year-old sunburned sentry or sitting in an hour-long line to pay $30 for a boat scrubbing, how do you think many will answer?

The plan might be less discriminatory and the lake might be better protected by just mandating that all boats be washed down.

Then there’s the cost of operation. The state Department of Environmental Conservation — with its ever-shrinking budget —doesn’t seem to want to touch this one with a 10-foot pole.

But the vast majority of launches dotting the lake are private. Should these businesses be required to pick up the cost of overseeing the program?

Who will pay for the $250,000 wash stations?

The state? You’d have a better chance of taking up a collection among waterfront owners.

And, finally, will all the expense and extra hassle truly keep invasives from Lake George?

Can anyone actually say with certainty if any of this will have a benefit at a reasonable cost?

The answer, of course, is no.

Invasives can be introduced from a bait bucket, from migrant waterfowl, on the bottoms of cartop boats and unemptied bilges.

Does that mean the Park Commission should ignore the threat?

Absolutely not.

But much more research needs to be done before commissioners pull the trigger on a plan that seems to have been contrived in backroom secrecy with input from a select few.

For a plan of this magnitude to be accepted, all the stakeholders need to be involved in the process and a referendum may be in order.

Only then will the majority support it and get behind the effort of keeping invasives from our waters.

•100 Years Ago – Feb.-March 1912• Construction worker killed Charles Flynn, 22, of Corinth, a workman in the employ of Warren Curtis Jr., in the construction of the new Corinth dam across the Hudson River, was killed the afternoon of March 6, 1912 by being pinned between a wheel of a wagon which he, with five others, was loading with sand and a five-ton piece of frozen sand and stones, which suddenly detached itself from the bank where they were working. Work was being rushed on the dam in an effort to complete it before the spring freshets set in.

The body was horrible mangled by the impact and the injured man lived only 15 minutes.

Corinth dam brings power With the completion of the Corinth dam in the near future, flooding a large area of land from Corinth to Luzerne and far up the Sacandaga River, power will be furnished for a large pulp and paper mill.

Also, thousands of dollars will be expended in building homes for the paper men who will be brought to that section.

On the Luzerne side of the river a large and up-to-date electric plant will be erected to furnish light and power for the villages of Corinth and Luzerne.

In other Corinth news, a petition bearing the signatures of 20 freeholders of the village asking for the extension of the corporation line of the village in an easterly direction was presented Feb. 28, 1912 to the board of village trustees.

Weather madness experienced One day recently a young man passed through Chestertown driving two dogs hitched to a sleigh. With all the cold and snow and seeing the fur-clad driver and the dog team, a person standing on the street could easily imagine himself to be in the

Washington’s birthday anniversary on Feb. 22, 1912 will be remembered because of the great variety of weather. The day began with a snowstorm which turned into rain, accompanied by thunder and lightening - a regular summer-type shower which again changed to snow and a heavy wind. The day ended with a small blizzard. On Feb. 26, 1912, 12 and a half inches fell on Bakers Mills.

It was indeed a day to sit by the coal fire, dream about spring and peruse the blooming catalogue of seeds which is found in nearly every home these days which is prepared to cater to the needs of those ambitious men who think to raise the vegetables and gather greens that look just like the pictures that adorn the pages of the book.

Tuesday, March 12, 1912 will be the 24th anniversary of the Great Blizzard of 1888, which is remembered by the older inhabitants as “some storm.” Nobody living ever knew of such a storm, either before or since.

Warrensburgh’s elite auto club A carload of Buick automobiles, shipped direct from the factory at Flint, Mich. to Miller Brothers of Glens Falls, arrived March 5, 1912 at the local freight station. Some of these have already been purchased by local enthusiasts and the remainder is on display downtown.

In Warrensburgh, G.W. Dickinson has sold his four-passenger Buick tonneau to S.E. Johnson and has purchased a five-passenger touring car of the same make. Mrs. L.W. Emerson has purchased a five-passenger Overland touring car. Thomas J. Smith and Frank W. Smith have each disposed of their automobiles and will appear this season with a Cadillac touring car and a Cadillac torpedo car, respectively.

J.K. Heffron will make his debut in automobile circles behind a 35 horsepower Buick roadster and John J. Smith has qualified for

full membership by the purchase of an Overland roadster. He asserts, however, that he will buy a “real car” as soon as he becomes accustomed to the mechanism of “the beast.”

Griffing genealogy published Henry Griffing, after years of research and arduous effort, has had the great pleasure of seeing published a complete genealogy of the Griffing family under the title, “Stephen Griffing, His Ancestory and Descendants.”

The work was completed by Mrs. Edith Willoughby West of Glens Falls and was printed by Bullard Press of that city. The volume contains many photographs and was designed as a memorial to early Thurman settler, Stephen Griffing, Henry Griffing’s grandfather, with a detailed record of his ancestry and descendants listing 581 members of the family.

The record begins with Jasper Griffing, born in Wales in 1648 who emigrated to America. He died in 1718 and left five children. Stephen Griffing and his wife, Elizabeth Uhl moved to Warren County in the spring of 1800 and established their home in Thurman. They had 11 children. (No: The Griffing genealogy book is considered one of the most important works available of early Warren County history and is valued by local historians as it contains many facts not recorded elsewhere. In 1988 in Boston, it was my good fortune to buy an even earlier Griffing history written by family member Clara Jeannette Stone.

It is rumored that the Griffings were descended from Llewellyn “Griffith” Llewellyn, the last prince of Wales. Jasper and Hannah Griffing actually had 18 children, but records of only five of them -Jasper, John, Edward, Robert and Susanna Griffing – survive. Hannah, worn out from childbirth, died in 1699 when she was only 46 years old. Jasper died in 1718 when he was 70.

Grace Merrill Magee, who died here in 1979, was the granddaughter of Stephen Griffing II, lumberman, assemblyman and Warrensburgh hotel owner, whose former home became in recent years the Merrill Magee House, and later the Griffin House Restaurant, now closed.)

Senator Emerson buys cottage Senator James A. Emerson of Warrensburgh, will donate the most of his time this summer to his Leland Hotel property at Schroon Lake. He has bought the Taylor property adjoining the Leland House and will fit up a cottage there for the occupancy of himself and family. Schroon Lake has for many years been called “A Little Paradise,” and glimmered in the moonlight just down the hill from the Leland House. (Note: The Leland House burned in a spectacular fire Dec. 14, 1938. The Sagamore Hotel at Bolton Landing had burned only a few weeks earlier. It was the end of a golden era, a time when a terrible war was bearing down upon our nation.)

News roundabout Joseph A. Aiken has been granted a divorce from Bertha McElroy Aiken by Supreme Court Justice Charles C. VanKirk.

The couple was married in Warrensburgh in 1907. They have no children. Mr. Aiken is still a resident of Warrensburgh but Mrs. Aiken has been employed in Glens Falls for several years.

The Sherman House at Moriah, the property of John R. Carson, which was burned to the ground in August 1910, is to be rebuilt.

Lumber for the new building is being drawn to the site.

Charles Remington of Chestertown, drove to Warrensburgh and found that there was enough wind to fly a kite on Spruce Mountain. Charles Glassbrook was obliged to go to Warrensburgh with a cutter Feb. 27, 1912 in order to get the mail through the snow drifts.

Letters to the Editor

With levy, library would remain independent To the Adirondack Journal: Readers of the Adirondack Journal may also have read an article in the Feb. 14 Post-Star reporting on the recent Warrensburg School Board meeting at which there was discussion of a voting booth at the school district election in May for Richards Library’s proposition for a levy to support its operating budget. The article contained errors unrelated to anything discussed at the school board meeting and revealed misunderstanding of the levy.

The article says that if the levy passes, the library would “become a quasi-public entity with its taxpayer-generated revenue administered by the school district.”

This is incorrect. Richards Library’s charter status as an association (private) library would not change. Its revenue absolutely would not be administered by the school district; the law doesn’t permit it.

State law provides that the school district conduct the vote and collect the tax, turning the money directly over to the library to be administered by the trustees according to their own budget.

The school has no role whatsoever in determining or administering the library’s budget. Many private association

I’m all for advancing technology, but I’m just not certain we aren’t on the slippery slope with cute little devices.

You might disagree, but ask yourself these questions and then tell me we aren’t at least starting to slip a little on that slope: •Have you spent more on accessories than on your mobile unit?

•Do you have over 30 apps installed and use them all?

•Do you have alarms telling you when to do everything in your life?

•Do you read about your phone on your phone?

•Have you cut back on necessities to afford your month mobile bill?

•Have you forgot your mobile and felt withdrawal symptoms all day until you’re reunited?

•Do you meet people who use the same mobile as you, and you can only talk about the device?

•Have you felt that sinking feeling of panic when you touch your pocket/purse and it’s gone?

libraries all over the state receive funding by this method, including many in this area.

The Post-Star article also says, “The library has seen its endowment plummet in recent years, as expansion efforts at the facility have gone well over budget.” This implies that the endowment plummeted because of the building project.

No, the endowment plummeted because of the debacles in the stock market over the past dozen years. The endowment, established by the founders a century ago, is separate from the building fund, which comes from donations.

The trustees are making great efforts to inform voters that the levy is not part of the school budget and has nothing to do with the school. It would be unfortunate if the Post-Star ’s errors set back those efforts.

Schools should stop promoting witchcraft To the Adirondack Journal: This is a reply to Lauralee Allen’s response to my earlier letter to the editor.

I wrote concerning the court-recognized religion of Witchcraft/Wicca which is being promoted unlawfully by the state in the U.S. public school system.

Where’s the public outcry toward this religious promotion? The facts as to Harry Potter speak for themselves.

I don’t want any state religion foisted upon unsuspecting and trusting children.

If Witches and Wiccans, who don’t believe in Satan or that he even exists, want to place their faith in Mother Earth, rocks, trees, rivers, streams or anything else — that’s their decision and privilege. They have freedom of religion and thought. If the deity of Witchcraft/Wicca meets their needs, let them freely exercise that freedom, but not in government educational systems.

Since the Ten Commandments have been considered by the courts to be harmful to those that may read and obey them, what has replaced that mode of proven and historically accepted morality? Where was the public outcry when all this was going down against Christianity?

The last two sentences of my earlier letter asked questions that need answers: Where’s the helpful, moral direction that children need? Is it in occult and Satanic principles being taught to them by the media and school teachers through the occult books of Harry Potter? Perhaps the Rede or the Law of Three has been deemed a suitable replacement?

The Harry Potter craze is merely a repackaging of Witchcraft/Wicca that exposes children to a religion, to the occult and demon powers that affect children spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and /or physically in a way that the Ten Commandments never would. Harry Potter promotes meditation, transfiguration of humans into other beings or animals, fortune telling, reincarnation, occult spells, curses, vampires, demonism, and can lead to Satanism. Over time children will adapt to the “dark world” of the occult and are not even aware of it’s dangers. Even most of the informed who are participating in the Wicca craft advise against involvement with spirit beings. A whole generation of kids are now on the internet trying to enroll in schools of Witchcraft and Wizardry such as Harry Potter ’s school. Harry Potter books teach children a whole new set of behavior patterns and values. When kids are corrected by parents, teachers, or others

in authority, they learn to cast spells or curses in order to get revenge. It doesn’t require a great intellect to evaluate such practices.

First Amendment rights should be respected To the Adirondack Journal: Regarding Dr. Lynne Macco’s letter to the editor in which she took issue with Dan Alexander ’s “Viewpoint” article about our First Amendment rights. In her letter, she stated that she believes “it’s important for every American to have access to quality health care and the facts.”

I couldn’t agree more.

Dr. Macco puts forth her contention that the “emergency contraception” pill, or Plan B, is not an abortion pill. She quotes a statement by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists determining that E. C. pills “will not cause an abortion.”

In fact, this is a matter of interpretation. These pills can work to “prevent pregnancy” in different ways: by delaying or stopping ovulation, by preventing fertilization, or, if fertilization has already taken place, preventing the fertilized embryo (a human being) from attaching to the uterus. In other words, if the pills work in the third way, they can act as an abortifacient.

But if this is true, how can the ACOG say what they say?

Simple: years ago they “determined” that pregnancy occurs, not at the moment of conception, but when the fertilized embryo implants in the uterus. Anything before implantation is not pregnancy. No pregnancy — no abortion; problem solved. The problem with these semantics: From a moral and scientific viewpoint human life begins at conception.

Dr. Macco goes on to claim that the Affordable Care Act does not affect emergency contraception because Plan B is available “over the counter.”

“It will remain available over the counter at the pharmacy regardless of this act,” she states. This gives the impression that, because the pill is available over the counter, it won’t be available through a prescription. In fact, it would make more sense to me that, if it were available for free through the insurance provider, that’s how it’s going to get purchased.

This debate is about private and religious groups, as well as individual employers, being forced to provide these products as part of “preventative care.”

It prompts the questions: What “disease” do these products prevent? How could a pill that’s classified by the World Health Organization as a Group 1 carcinogen be included as “preventative care?” We’re not debating about emergency blood transfusions or liver transplants here — we’re talking about avoiding pregnancy. Last I knew, contraceptives were available at the local Stewart’s just above the Rolaids.

Finally, Dr. Macco’s taking Mr. Alexander to task for his alleged misuse of terms distracts from the point of his article. Regardless of anyone’s differing viewpoints on the use of these drugs, it is an obvious, flagrant violation of the First Amendment to force a religious group to participate in something that violates their religious beliefs.

Program mulled for L.G. boat disinfection LAKE GEORGE — Prompted by lobbying from environmentalists and resolutions enacted by local municipalities, members of the Lake George Park Commission are now taking steps toward making their proposed boat inspection and decontamination law a reality.

Feb. 3, the Commission’s Invasives Species Spread Prevention Committee discussed establishing a trial boat inspection and vessel disinfection program within several months at Norowal Marina.

While the trial program features voluntary compliance, the proposed law would require all boats, before they are launched on Lake George, to be thoroughly inspected — and if deemed necessary — sent to a vessel-washing station to be decontaminated.

Already, the Park Commission has a law in place that prohibits placing a boat in Lake George that bears any invasive species — but since the law doesn’t require every boat to be inspected, it doesn’t necessarily have any impact on protecting the lake, environmentalists have argued. Also, because it includes no comprehensive inspection program nor remedial requirements, the law has little practical effect.

Environmental experts have noted that to protect Lake George from widespread infestation and degradation, action is needed.

The fast spread of invasive plants and mussels in Lake Tahoe and Lake Mead have shown that it is far easier and 50 to 100 times cheaper to prevent invasives from taking hold in a lake versus trying to combat their propagation once they’ve become established.

The Lake George Association has been conducting a voluntary boat inspection program for two years.

During summer 2011, the LGA’s “Lake Stewards” at six boat launches inspected 8,584 boats for invasive species, removed suspicious specimens from 52 boats prior to launch, and educated over 19,000 people about the threats of invasive species.

Both the Lake George Village Board

Lake George Library dinner slated LAKE GEORGE — The Caldwell-Lake George Library’s second annual benefit dinner will be held from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. March 1 at East Cove restaurant off Rte. 9L. The theme "Be a Friend," has been adopted to kick-start the organization of a library friends group. Featured at the event is a drawing for door prize and a 50/50 raffle.

Reservations are appreciated, particularly for large parties. To RSVP, call 668-5265. Proceeds will go towards future library building projects. For information on the fundraiser, contact Cheryl Dybas at 668-5591 or: cdybas@yahoo.com.

Also, the trustees of the library invite the public to an organizational meeting for a Friends of the Caldwell-Lake George Library to be held at 7 p.m. Monday, March 5 in the library. A “Friends” group is envisioned to support the library in many ways, including obtaining new materials and sponsoring fundraising projects. Refreshments will be served.

Knitting to benefit others

In 2010, volunteers place mats designed to curb the spread of Asian Clams in Lake George. Environmentalists have noted that it is 50 to 100 times cheaper to prevent invasives from taking hold in a lake versus trying to combat their propagation once they’ve become established. The Lake George Park Commission is considering a law requiring inspection of all boats, before they are launched in the lake, for the presence of invasive species and mandating remedial disinfection, if needed. and the Lake George Town Board have passed resolutions in support of a law requiring inspections of all boats placed in Lake George for the presence of invasive species, and mandatory decontamination by washing, if necessary.

The law would require marinas and other private boat launch owners and homeowners’ associations to make sure all boats comply with the process.

Boats from other bodies of water have been blamed for importing invasive species such as Asian clams or Eurasian Milfoil, which have spread rapidly and prompted a multi-milliondollar invasives control effort in Lake George.

But the state Department of Environmental Conservation has yet to offer their opinion on mandatory inspection.

Meanwhile, sportsmen’s groups

have raised a variety of concerns about the proposed law.

They argue that the law favors the wealthy, who can avoid repeated inspections during a season by leaving their boat docked in the lake from spring to fall.

Also, the law restricts fishermen who routinely seek to get out on the lake early in the morning for prime angling.

Then there’s the $30 fee for the washdown. Also, the proposed law calls for a two-week drying period before a boat is reintroduced into Lake George, which is likely to further restrict the use of the lake by sportsmen.

Marina owners have also expressed their concerns about the proposal, citing how it is likely to cause congestion at their facilities and frustrate customers, as well as prompt boaters to seek out other lakes for recreation.

LAKE GEORGE — Although most of the storefronts downtown are dark during winter, Caffe Vero is full of activity now, particularly on late Tuesday afternoons when it regularly hosts a group of needlework enthusiasts called the Knit Wits.

This group of six to ten women, who routinely enjoy conversation and coffee for about an hour weekly while they knit and crochet, was started as an outreach project for St. James Episcopal Church.

Knit Wits founder Michele Hotko has said the purpose of the group is socializing while knitting or crocheting for social concerns.

The group’s first project years ago was to knit caps for a troop of soldiers being deployed to Iraq. The goal was to knit 117 caps, one for each soldier in the company. Since the project started the group has given more than 650 caps to the National Guard to distribute to soldiers being deployed to the Middle East.

Projects now planned include creating prayer shawls, afghans, lap robes, caps for babies and toddlers — plus hats, scarves and mittens for local families in need.

All are invited to attend a needlework session, whether it’s to knit or crochet, learn about the crafts, or just to socialize. Caffé Vero is located at 185 Canada St. Supporting Healthy Families Program beginning Tuesday, February 28th from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in Queensbury. This new six-week program combines tried and true basic parenting tools with healthy lifestyle skills. It is a unique opportunity for parents/caregivers to learn how to foster healthy relationships while learning both about discipline and nutrition.

The Supporting Healthy Families Program is targeted to parents/caregivers with children in the pre-school years – a time when eating behaviors are developed and parents can be confused on how to parent and nurture a growing child. The program is free, fun, interactive and will provide cooking demo’s, prizes, and incentives in a supportive setting.

Pre-registration is requested by calling Cornell Cooperative Extension at 668-4881 or 623-3291.

BIG APPEAL!

In this economy, homeowners are watching every penny...just because money is tight doesn’t mean every renovation plan has to be cast aside. Smaller projects can revitalize a room without a big investment.

Homeowners who don’t have much to spend still don’t want to compromise quality with smaller improvements. Therefore, they’re often thinking of big appeal, albeit on a smallers cale.

To get started, homeowners should look at the rooms they use the most and begin there.

What’s the point of starting in a guest room or renovating the basement if it’s rarely used? Put available funds to work on the rooms that get seen.

Living room re-dos can be achieved with some accessory changes and perhapes a new piece of furniture. Change a glass coffee table for an earthy leather ottoman that can also store toys or throw pillows. A simple swap of window treatments can dramatically change the look of the room.

Now is the time to change princess prints for bolder graphics for sophistication. All it often takes is a little paint and some new bed linens to achieve the look.

For a dramatic change in a home with hardwood floors being hidden by carpeting, take the weekend to pull up the carpeting and reveal the floors beneath. A little sanding and resealing is often all it takes to bring out the beauty of the wood. And that will instantly provide value while increasing aesthetic appeal.

Another simple and very inexpensive way to renovate a home is to reduce. By removing clutter and items that are simply collecting dust, homeowners can breathe new life into spaces.

Rearranging furniture is also another option.

For example, the kitchen is a popular room in many homes. If budget doesn’t allow for a rehaul of appliances or cabinetry, think about less expensive ways to modify the space. A

Beach Party beguiles revelers at Bolton highway garage

By Wauneata Waller

denpubs@denpubs.com BOLTON — There’s nothing unusual about the connection between the town Highway garage and sand. In winter, the two have a close relationship.

However, on Saturday, Feb. 18, the town garage’s sand wasn’t being employed to keep the roads safe — it was used to create an indoor beach, where kids enjoyed digging and building sand castles.

But this transformation went beyond a simple, singular summer scene.

The enormous highway department bay was turned into a tropical oasis with brightly colored balloons and streamers. It was a

fully outfitted venue for Bolton Library’s third annual Cabin Fever Beach Party — with plenty of room for the 150 attending.

With all the guests outfitted in tropical garb, partyers had to be reminded — despite the falling snow — that it was really February.

Local musicians kicked off the evening with high-spirited renditions of favorite tunes mixed with original music — and they continued to perform throughout the night.

Those without a dance partner could rent a inflated monkey to dance with for $1. At least 30 people, exhibiting a social spirit, took advantage of this offer.

Good music, festive decorations and good socializing weren’t all that was pleasing to

the senses. Buffet tables were filled with savory dishes that guests brought to share.

Also, Boltonian Sue Ferdinand’s artistry was evident, also, as she painted exquisite decorations on faces of many of those attending — young, and young-at-heart.

Becky Herrick was the high bidder in a silent auction, and she took home a Kindle Fire tablet. Also, the party provided a good startup for a raffle — with a grand prize of $2,000 — that will be completed during the library’s book sale in July.

Emma Calautti, one of the event organizers, praised the volunteers who decorated the town garage, as well as the highway workers, town employees, musicians, volunteer chefs, plus those who helped in a myri-

Conservancy offers scholarships BOLTON — The Lake George Land Conservancy has launched a program of granting scholarship awards to high school seniors based on the ecological awareness demonstrated though a submitted essay.

High school seniors from Lake George Central, Bolton Central and Ticonderoga — districts that are situated primarily in the Lake George watershed — are eligible to enter, as are home-schooled students in these communities.

One $500 first-place and one $250 second-place prize will be awarded and an additional $250 will be awarded to the first-place student’s school science program.

To apply, students must submit an essay between 1,000 and 2,000 words addressing the question: “If you were elected the Wizard Mayor of the Lake George watershed, what would your first three projects be, and why?”

Essays must be received by April 1, and should be submitted via email to hbartonbenedict@lglc.org. A panel of Lake George Land Conservancy directors and staff will review the entries, to be judged on demonstrated knowledge of Lake George and creativity. Award decisions will be announced by June 1.

For details, contact Helen Barton Benedict, LGLC’s development manager, at 644-9673 or email hbartonbenedict@lglc.org, or see: www.lglc.org for more details.

Plan now for casino trip Justine Tiger While eyeing a career in Marketing, she is aiming to attain a spot on the U.S. World Cup Soccer team.

Justine, the daughter of John and Tracy Tiger, started her soccer career as a 3-year-old, when her parents enrolled her in a summer soccer camp conducted by the Glens Falls YMCA. In elementary school, she competed in co-ed recreational league soccer. As a sixth grader, she was invited to play on a Premier team based at the Clifton Park Sportsplex.

These younger years, she recalled, really advanced her skills. During that

time, Justine got serious about training, and she set her sights on competing on a Division I college soccer program. She started practicing with the BCS Varsity soccer squad in 7th grade.

Justine was recruited by Coastal Carolina —and awarded a full scholarship — after scouts saw her play last year in a tournament held in Virginia.

Last week, Justine exhibited enthusiasm over delving into college-level soccer.

“I’m so excited, I can’t wait,” she said.

B O LTO N L A N D I N G — Te e n a g e r Justine Tiger, a part-time Bolton resident and former Bolton Central student, signed a commitment Feb. 1 to play Women’s Soccer for Coastal Carolina University, a Big South Conference Division I school. She will begin her academic and sports pursuits there this August .

Though Justine has attended Shaker High in Latham since 2009, she is and remains a Bolton Landing resident, as is her family. Justine was born in Glens Falls and spent her first 15 years in Bolton.

In 2009, her last year attending Bolton High, she played on the Varsity Soccer and Varsity Basketball teams as a Freshman.

For the latter squad, she was starting point guard in 9th grade, after playing on Varsity a year earlier.

During 2009, she was named to the All-Star Soccer team of the Mountain & Valley Athletic Conference as a Freshman. She won a similar award the year before for BCS as an 8th grade Varsity player, when she was one of the top scorers. Justine was considered a key element in her team placing first in Section VII Northern Division for both 2008 and 2009.

At Shaker High, she has been the top scorer for the school’s Girls Soccer team during her Sophomore and Junior years.

Justine plans to major in Marketing and Communications at Coastal Carolina.

“Bolton Landing has the best volunteers – decorators who are experts in transforming a garage into a tropical delight, a band that is better than any you have ever paid to hear, a bonfire expert, beach builders, and people who are not afraid to dance with monkeys — and many, many more,” she said.

Calautti continued that the volunteers’ dedication was underscored by a concluding surprise — she arrived at the town garage on Sunday morning to find that Mitch Monroe and his family had already been there and cleaned up the entire venue.

Bolton Library officials note that anything left behind at the event is now ready for pickup at the library.

NYSDEC Commissioner Joe Martens enjoys a day away from the office, as he visits Camp Santanoni.

A

which include The Adirondack Nature Conservancy, the NYSDEC, Adirondack Architectural Heritage (AARCH) and the Town of Newcomb.

The effort was achieved through the foresight of a dedicated group of enthusiastic preservationists, aided by a politically savvy, Town Supervisor and willing State Officials.

Located at the end of a marvelously maintained, five mile long, carriage road, the camp complex is bordered by the Vanderwhacker Wild Forest and the surrounding High Peaks Wilderness. It overlooks Newcomb Lake, and the stillwaters of Lower Duck Hole. It remains a diamond in the rough, and that is its greatest draw.

This winter, the NYSDEC, AARCH, the Town of Newcomb, and SUNY-ESF's Adirondack Interpretive Center have been hosting special weekends for cross-country skiers and snowshoers to enable to them to visit the Gatelodge and Main Lodge. The events allow visitor to enjoy interpretive tours with AARCH staff, and to warm up at the Artist's Studio before their return trip. The last of the "open house weekends" will be hosted on March 17-18.

Mike Frenette, the camp’s resident caretaker, carpenter and caregiver, informed the visiting press corps that over 200 guests had traveled to the camp over the past weekend. He claimed it was the largest crowd he has ever witnessed, in any season. Without the benefit of Frenette’s fine and friendly care, it is doubtful the camp would still be intact, due to the unrelenting attacks of nature. From shoveling the roofs, to

s the winter season begins to show signs of winding down, visions of an early ice out have begun to dance through my head like sugar-plums on Christmas Eve. Although the ‘winter that wasn’t’ has yet to produce the deep, lush snowfall that skiers dream of; the season has certainly provided some interesting pockets of opportunity.

A recent ski trip through the Route of the Seven Carries, from Paul Smiths to Lake Clear offered a gentle blend of woodland romps and flat ice flings, filled with an interesting assortment of animal tracks which included otter, deer, bobcat and even moose. The cover on the lake ice was ideal for ski skating, and there was plenty of snow in the woods. In the course of a full day’s travel over seven carries and across eight water bodies, I never encountered another traveler.

A few days later, I encountered crowds and challenging ski conditions at the Mt. Van Hoevenberg Nordic Ski Center in Lake Placid. Featuring meager snow cover, and an icy, hard packed base, the former Olympic ski trails were in rough shape. I found far less traffic, and much better trail conditions the following day at the Paul Smiths VIC, even though there was a race in progress.

However, the best ski conditions I encountered during a full week of adventuring were found in the village of Newcomb, where I enjoyed a gentle ski over generous snow while taking an interesting journey into Great Camp Santanoni. My visit to the Land of the South-Slope'rs in Newcomb coincided with an official, NYSDEC press event, which was available by invitation only.

CHESTERTOWN — Apparently nothing will stop this treasured, decades-old tradition in the North Country.

Although this winter has yielded nearly no snowfall, the Krazy Downhill Derby sledding race will continue as planned Saturday, Feb. 25 at the Dynamite Hill Recreation Area, due to plenty of man-made snow on the slope.

For 36 years, local residents have fashioned weird craft — anything from simple cardboard creations to complex or bizarre feats of engineering — to slide down Dynamite Hill.

This year, with slopes all over the North Country merely green and grassy, the Krazy Derby will depend on a snowmaking machine the town purchased several years ago.
