Thurman ponders future of its emergency squad Service, personnel controversy aired

By Carol LaGrasse denpubs@denpubs.com ATHOL — The contentious issues of the local emergency squad’s finances, response times and personnel matters were aired Sunday in a special town board meeting.

Since January, the Thurman Town Board has been withholding its annual payment of $33,800 to the Thurman Emergency Squad, pending an audit of its books that would explain to the town board’s satisfaction that the squad needs the funds in light of the squad’s existing fund balance.

Supervisor Lawrence “Red” Pitkin said at the meeting Sunday that the emergency squad still had $42,000 in its checking account balance at the end of November.

“Our concern is there’s a lot of money sitting there and we didn’t see calls being responded to,” he said.

The squad’s cash balance might be justified, but in December the directors discharged the treasurer, Suzie Baker who could explain the accounts. The squad’s board also prompted the sheriff ’s department to visit her home several months ago and threaten her with arrest if she did not turn over the books, which she immediately did. Some have criticized the action as groundless.

Last month, Baker and her son Dexter Baker, were booted out of the squad, which the Bakers contend was unfounded and conducted without a proper vote.

At Sunday’s meeting, squad captain George McKinney said that the squad presently has no treasurer. The audit for the town board was due last month, but when February was up and the squad failed to produce a written audit, the town board extended the deadline to the end of March, when Pitkin called the meeting to discuss matters with the squad.

It was apparent, judging from complaints from the crowded audience, that the people of Thurman expected the audit to be produced. There still was no audit.

McKinney blamed for the delay of the audit on it being too difficult.

“The auditor is going through and trying to figure out where all the checks were spent on what,” he said.

Townspeople in the meeting rebutted McKinney’s remark.

Jean Coulard, the past treasurer, spoke up emphatically, “Any auditor who can’t work from her books has got a problem. I trained her.”

Those who’ve seen Baker ’s books have said that each expense is carefully categorized and tallied neatly, and subtotals are penned for each month.

Town officials have questioned more than merely the accumulated fund balance and the delayed audit. Pitkin said that the number of responses by Thurman’s ambulance had recently dropped dramatically, from 9 of 20 received during

Bogus crash call prompts investigation

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — A report of a serious rollover crash over the Warren County emergency two-way radio system about two weeks ago sent firefighters and emergency medical people scrambling, but the call was bogus, county officials said Thursday.

Emergency Coordinator Brian LaFlure said a series of three calls reported the crash and they originated from a particular mobile radio installed in a car or truck.

ing for the accident," he said. "This type of action puts our emergency responders in jeopardy, if they are racing all over trying to find the crash — these are dedicated people, and it raises their adrenaline level for nothing."

The incident is prompting the county to upgrade and activate a secure radio system that will identify the identification of the caller, and lock out radios that aren't authorized. At this point, the county has no way of determining who the radio calling in belongs to, nor the location of the call.

North Warren girl boosts schoolmates’ awareness of epilepsy

North Warren Central seventh grader Alex Nuwer, along with her mother Laurie (center) and History teacher Jean Kubaryk (right) hold one of the many T-shirts — proclaiming her campaign to raise awareness of epilepsy — that were worn Friday by teachers at her school.

Alex and two members of the North Warren Emergency Squad passed out informational leaflets on seizure disorders to students at the school as another aspect of Alex’s campaign.

coming a geneticist or neuroendocrinologist — to discover more about seizure disorders, in order to help people with the condition, she said.

So far, she has an outstanding start, considering her high grades and dedication to her studies, her teachers said.

Alex, a seventh grader, is taking a high-school level online course in Psychology and is excelling in all courses. She’s maintained high honor roll status and has been involved in the regional Young Scholars program for three years.

Her hard work also extends to her extracurricular activities at North Warren. Alex is a goalie in Modified field Hock-

ey, and serves as pitcher and first base for her Modified softball team.

Also, she is involved in chorus and plays a variety of instruments, including clarinet, flute, oboe, and piano, as well as taking on a role recently in the upcoming school musical, Willy Wonka.

Kubaryk predicted that Alex might someday graduate as the Valedictorian of her class before heading out into the world and making substantial contributions to society.

“Alex is an incredibly bright student and humble about her intelligence,” Kubaryk said.

CHESTERTOWN — Alex Nuwer, a 13-year old honor student at North Warren Central School, is concerned that youth and adults don’t know enough about a medical condition that effects 2.7 million Americans.

This week, she launched a mission at her school to raise awareness about epilepsy — a term which encompasses various seizure disorders from many known and unknown causes, she said in an interview Monday.

“People need to understand it’s not a disease, and they can’t catch it from you,” she said with a smile. “The seizures are caused by an abnormal burst of electricity in a person’s body, and if people see someone having one, they shouldn’t be afraid, but they should make sure help is available.”

Alex knows about seizures first-hand. At age 11, after having several seizures, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Encephalopathy — a rare form of epilepsy caused by one’s thyroid being attacked by antibodies.

Friday, Alex and several friends — including Bill Gardner and Mary Oberdorf of the North Warren Emergency Squad — passed out information on seizure disorders to students to help boost their awareness, along with purple ribbons, a symbol of support for those with the condition.

Alex said that her mother

and father, Laurie and David Nuwer — and her siblings Erica and Gage — earlier had helped cut and glue the ribbons, numbering more than 300.

Laurie Newer said that Alex designed the informational flyers, which include Alex’s personal experience with the disorder, and that Nicole and John Howe produced them on their computer and folded about 250 of them for distribution amongst students and the public.

While the materials were being distributed Friday, North Warren teachers were wearing T-shirts that showed support for this educational campaign.

Emblazoned with the slogan “Epilepsy Awareness — Talk about it,” the T-shirts were funded by Laurie’s mother-inlaw.

Alex wore one of the shirts Friday, and many of her classmates signed it in a show of support, Alex said.

Also, she and Mason Hamilton of Diamond Point, who was partially paralyzed in a recent snowmobile crash, recently exchanged inspirational Tshirts. He posted a photo of himself wearing Alex’s Epilepsy Awareness shirt on his Facebook page, which now has 1,057 fans. In turn, Alex wore Hamilton’s T-shirt on Friday, and it bears the message “Strength — True Greatness Comes When You are Tested.”

While Alex was in Chestertown Friday — National Epilepsy Awareness Day — her U.S. History teacher Jean Kubaryk was in Washington

Exotic zoo proposed for Lake George Village

By Brendan Manley denpubs@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Granville animal handler Cindy Bardin thinks it’s about time Lake George Village had a zoo to offer both locals and visitors, and she knows just the spot for it: the beleaguered former Gaslight Village property. Last week Bardin and partner Kathy Gilbert presented their plan to the Warren County Board of Supervisors, and they are now awaiting feedback.

Although Bardin said the board seemed receptive to the proposal, one potential stumbling block is land ownership.

The Gaslight property is public land, yet Bardin’s theoretical zoo and “Jungle Room”— an outgrowth of her event/party business, Exotic Animal Experience — would be a privately owned venture. Bardin personally owns and cares for the various animals that would reside at the zoo (including tigers, cougars, foxes and monkeys), and has the necessary fencing, but doesn’t currently have development capital. A partnership in some form would be a necessity.

“I think it would be good for tourism, and would serve the area even in the winter,” Bardin said, struggling to be heard over a baboon screeching for a bottle in the background.

“The Opera House would make the perfect monkey dome.”

Bardin could use it. A recent divorcee, she says she desperately needs to find a new home for her animals, and feels Lake George, with its stream of summer visitors and local population, yet no nearby zoo, offers the perfect locale. Prior to the Gaslight proposal, she spent five months in discussions with Six Flags Great Escape, which had expressed interest in expanding its petting zoo. Ultimately the company deemed the required renovations too expensive to justify, and declined to tackle the venture, prompting Bardin to explore options in the public sector. However, the reaction to her brief speech at the recent county public meeting concerning Gaslight Village didn’t quite reassure her of the plan’s potential for acceptance.

“The public wasn’t very nice to me,” Bardin said. “One person said the zoo should only have Adirondack animals.

Why would I do that? Animals are animals.”

Those that she encountered at the public hearing, however, had turned out to demand that the Opera House and Cavalcade of Cars buildings on the Gaslight property be demolished, and not used for events, festivals — or this latest proposal, a zoo.

But motivated by an obvious passion for their work, Bardin and Gilbert are hopeful they will eventually find the right spot for their venture. The public proposal is still a viable option, and if a private investor comes along first, she’d be more than happy to explore that avenue, as well. Either way, she believes the area can only benefit from the zoo’s presence.

“I have happy, handle-able animals, that all respond to their names, and show off when called,” she adds. “They’d definitely bring people back to the area.”

Bolton Health Committee marks 80 years On April 15, the Bolton Health Committee will be celebrating 80 years of service — eight full decades of attending to the varied needs of local individuals and families.

On behalf of the community, we join with Boltonians in thanking all past and present members of this committee for enriching the Bolton area with their compassion and dedication. According to the group’s mission statement, their purpose is to “take care of some of the smaller needs of the community members in a quiet, confidential manner, assisting with food, fuel clothing, and emergency funds after disasters, holiday gifts and special health care needs."

This week, local attorney Gordon Garlick noted that this committee was officially formed April 15, 1930.

Fair weather gives towns’ finances a boost

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — A balmy, dry winter may have curtailed skiing and snowmobiling in the area, but it apparently has produced rewards for taxpayers.

The good weather has boosted municipal treasuries with money not spent on road salt and sand as well as the slashed costs of fuel, vehicle maintenance and personnel overtime.

Several towns reported substantial savings this week that have accrued over the winter season, which has been kind to local residents.

To date, the Warrensburg has used about 600 tons of road salt less than last year, and at $62 per ton, that’s about $37,200 in savings alone.

The cost of hauling 135 or so truckloads of sand will also be saved, as well as drastic reductions in the routine winter overtime pay for eight plow truck drivers, Town Highway Superintendent Ed Pennock said.

This savings, he said, extends to wear and tear on equipment as well as fuel, which is considerably more expensive than last year.

Pennock said that total savings to taxpayers because of the light winter could total about $75,000.

“We’ve had a decent winter, and hopefully we can hold the line from here on,” he said. “But this is assuming we don’t have any surprise spring snowstorms — I’ve seen a couple of good April doozies before.”

The Town of Horicon usually buys 900 tons of salt, but this year, their highway crews have only spread only 375 tons over the 203.5 lane-miles that they plow, town Highway Superintendent Paul Smith said. Last February alone, the town spent $18,000 on salt and sand, he said.

over an average season amounts to $12,000 to $15,000, he said. Savings on personnel overtime costs, he estimated, could be an additional $10,000 to $12,000.

The Town of Lake George also had substantial savings, despite their mere 37.1 lane-miles of roadway they clear.

The light winter meant a savings of $11,500 on salt, plus $1,200 to $3,000 on overtime, and a $6,500 reduction in fuel costs, Lake George Superintendent of Highways Hollis Ovitt said. Last year, the Lake George plow crews were out 23 times, compared to this year ’s 16, he said.

“If it holds like it is, we’ll be fine,” Ovitt said.

In the town of Chester, savings are more dramatic, because of the extensive miles of highway the employees plow.

Chester Highway Superintendent Gary Clark said Monday his crew has 110 miles of roadway to plow, and they use an average of 1,200 tons of salt, a figure that can go upwards to 1,800 if a winter is rough.

This year, however, his crew only used 800 tons, representing a savings of about $14,000. Fuel used for the winter road clearing was only 4,000 gallons, down from an average of 9,500 gallons.

At $2.40 per gallon, that’s $13,200 saved this year. Overtime in winter 2009 was about 133 hours per crew member, and with 11 on duty, that amounted to 1,463 hours, or $36,575.

An average year, however, Clark said, averages 200 hours per man, or $55,000 or so in total.

“This has been a very good winter, budget-wise,” he said.

InBrief Protect yourself from flamingo invasion THURMAN — Beginning in April, flocks of pink plastic flamingos are likely to be seen landing in one yard after another in town if a fundraiser by the Thurman Cemetery Committee takes flight as planned.

This Flamingo invasion is an effort to raise money for the Committee’s Gravestone Preservation workshop planned for this summer.

For a small donation Cemetery Committee members will come to a residence to remove the birds, and for a little extra, the person donating can 'flock' anyone else in town.

The Committee will also be offering “Flamingo Flocking Insurance Policies” which protect households from being flocked. For details, contact Evelyn at 623-2505, or Diane at 623-2128. All proceeds are going to the Gravestone Preservation Workshop.

On June 5, the Cemetery Committee has arranged for Jonathan Appell, a professional gravestone conservator and monumental mason to lead a hands-on workshop at the Pendell Cemetery in Thurman. He uses burying grounds to demonstrate and perform treatments for the most common gravestone and monument preservation dilemmas, including cleaning, resetting tilted stones and rejoining fractured tablet stones. Sign in will begin at 8:30, the fee is $30 per person and each person should bring a bagged lunch. The Cemetery Committee will also be videotaping the Workshop and a copy of the video will be available for and additional fee.

Workshop size is limited, registration ends and fees are due

by May 14, 2010. Call Evelyn at 623-2505 to sign up or for more information.

We plan to add a second corporate office in South Glens Falls for our newly acquired Loomis & LaPann insurance agency to provide additional convenience and new opportunities in our communities.”

Mr. Lilley indicated, “We are extremely pleased to have the opportunity to join forces with Arrow and Glens Falls National Bank. This affiliation will allow us to add to the services we provide. Quality customer service has been the benchmark for both Glens Falls National Bank and Loomis & LaPann for over 150 years.”

T

he maple sugar season closed with only one good run of sap. The crop is the smallest in years, but it is of superior quality. George Codner of West Stony Creek usually makes 250 to 300 gallons of syrup and so far he has only made 60 gallons.

Since March 27, the weather in this vicinity has been unprecedented, very warm and more like June than the beginning of April. Many pansy beds are in full bloom. Seth A. Reed of Ridge St. cut asparagus April 10 from his garden.

Frank Dunn murdered John Harper of Fort Ann has received a communication from Frederick Zorn of Susitna Station, Alaska, stating that Frank Dunn, formerly of this area, was murdered in a roadhouse on Jan. 26, 1910 in Alaska.

Mr. Zorn was a former boatman who worked on the Champlain Canal. Dunn was said to have been shot and killed by a man named Ralph Williams in the roadhouse and now his body lies in a grave some 2,000 feet from the scene of the crime. (Note…The Dunn family was among the very earliest settlers of Johnsburgh Corners after 1790 when John Thurman first brought settlers to that area.)

Child burned in freak accident Amelia Marcellus, 14, who was staying at the John Rhodes residence at Burnhamville — between Warrensburgh and Thurman — was horribly burned Sunday morning, April 17, 1910 and it is feared that her injuries may prove fatal.

The girl was making her morning toilet at 7 a.m. in a third story room of the house. She had a small hand lamp burning on a table and blew into the chimney to extinguish it. The flame shot up and came in contact with her hair, which was loose. In a moment she was in flames and ran screaming toward the stairs.

Mrs. Rhodes, who was on the second floor with her baby in her arms, ran up the stairs and grasped the girl, pulling her into the room below. Then laying the baby down, she procured a pail of water from a sink in the room and threw it upon the screaming sufferer and extinguished the flames.

The poor creature had been terribly burned about the chest and upper part of the body. Dr. Cunningham dressed the wounds and tried to relieve the excruciating suffering and shock which the flames that caused. Her face was not much affected but both ears were badly burned. Her condition is critical.

Amelia is a lovable child. She is one of a large family of children scattered by the death of their mother. The father

Famous photographer dies George W. Conkey, 72, died Tuesday, April 19, 1910 at his home in Glens Falls. He was the first photographer in all of Warren County.

(Note…George Conkey, the son of John and Hester Conkey, was born in 1837 in New York City. He was an artist who came to Glens Falls to work as an instructor in 1861 and went on to make the first photograph in Warren County. He married Miss Mary E. Leonard of Albany.

He became so successful as a photographer that he opened his own gallery opposite the post office on Warren St. I have seen several of his photographs taken of people and places in Lake George and they are magnificent. An original Conkey photograph is pricey today. I used to own one and in 2003 I lost it when my house burned)

Let go of my knife!

Cassius Varnum of North Caldwell was arrested April 18, 1910 by Constable W.H. Ovitt on a charge of petty larceny preferred by Frank E. White, who alleged that Varnum stole a valuable butcher knife from his meat market after it burned last fall in Warrensburgh. The knife was recovered and Justice Hodgson sentenced him to 10 days in the County Jail.

Man makes hard landing Edward LaPaige fell from the state dam at Indian Lake on April 16, 1910 and died soon after from his injuries.

LaPaige had spent the day in Indian Lake and had started home with his two sons, 13 and 14 years old. Headed across the lake from Sabael, the man was some what intoxicated and the boys led him carefully across the apex of the dam. When he safely reached the other side he turned around to go back alone and fell over the lower side of the big reservoir to a bed of rocks below, striking on his head.

He was carried to his home and a doctor was called. The accident happened at 7 p.m. and by the morning, he was dead. He left a widow and five children.

Deaths in the news Benjamin P. Young, 36, of Chestertown died of pneumonia. His father, two sisters and six brothers survive him.

Robert S. Armstrong, 77, died April 3, 1910 of diseases incident to old age and heart difficulty at his home in Johnsburgh. He is survived by a widow and two sons, J. Noble Armstrong, with whom he resided and Harry Armstrong of Newcomb.

Joseph Boyce, 58, died Sunday, April 3, 1910 quite sudWashington, DC.-based research organization said, “While the supply of exhibit space in the United States has expanded steadily, the demand (for such space) ….has actually plummeted.”

Some folks can really be confused by the facts. Warren County presently has nine existing meeting or trade show facilities. Most are owned privately and are not filled to capacity. Watch out fellow Warren County taxpayers! If another dollar of our money gets put into rehabilitating these ancient carnival buildings, we will continue on our way to creating a white elephant and a money-devouring sinkhole.

Applaud murphy for vote!

To the editor: Thank you to Congressman Scott Murphy for voting in favor of health care reform. Supporting this bill is fiscally responsible and represents the largest deficit reduction measure passed in more than a decade. This bill will reduce the deficit by $143 billion over the next ten years and $1.2 trillion within two decades.

Representative Murphy’s vote in favor of the health care reform bill is good for the long-term economic health of our region and beyond. Thanks to the health care reform bill more than 8,600 individuals in our district with pre-existing conditions will finally be able to obtain health insurance.

Scott Murphy opposed the original bill that passed the house because it did not do enough to control overall health costs.

The bill he voted for last week makes a realistic start at controlling the cost of health care, not only to individuals and small business, but to the American people as a whole.

The expense of extending health insurance coverage to 32 million Americans will be neutralized by savings and revenues from other government sources. The impact of the historic bill will benefit all segments of the American public.

This health care reform bill provides financial relief and access to health care insurance for young adults, seniors, children with illnesses, high-risk uninsured individuals, and small businesses, while protecting community health centers, primary care doctors and the disabled.

Rep. Scott Murphy should be applauded for his positions on this historic health care reform bill. His due diligence protected the interests of the voters throughout our district, while making unprecedented strides in making health care affordable and accessible to all Americans. Thank you, Congressman Murphy!

denly at his home near Edgecomb Pond, Bolton. Internment was in the Huddle Cemetery.

Michael Clifford, 78, an old and respected citizen of Olmstedville, died at home April 3, 1910. He had been in failing health for years. Burial was in St. Mary’s Cemetery.

Music Hall entertainment offered John S. Woodward will sing a selection from “The Country Minister” at Warrensburgh’s Music Hall, the beautiful tenor solo, “On the Road to Mandelay,” which he rendered with great success in several cities at concerts given by the Union College Glee Club of Schenectady.

Colin Coe’s pretty operetta, “The Cadet’s Picnic,” was successfully presented by pupils of the Warrensburgh High School at the Music Hall April 1, 1910, under the direction of Principal John B. Chilson with Miss Maude Thayer as accompanist to a fair-sized audience. The proceeds were about $35 which was donated to the Washington trip fund for the graduating class.

Vaudeville performances direct from the Empire Theatre, Glens Falls, under the management of J.P. Garretson, gave performances at Music Hall on April 12 and 15, 1910.

(The Music Hall was on the corner of Main and Adirondack streets in Warrensburg. It burned in 1950, several days after Christmas. My late husband, Merv Hadden used to play basketball up on the second floor in the ballroom with his team when he was in high school.)

News roundabout A movement is on foot with the probable likelihood of success for the establishment of a much-needed tuberculosis hospital in Warren County. (Is this Westmount Infirmary?)

The big, new pipe organ for the Methodist Episcopal Church arrived Monday, April 11, 1910, in Warrensburgh.

Miss Clara Richards is having 2,000 little pine tree transplants set out on the hillside opposite her residence, “The Elms .“ Edward Noble is superintending the planting.

(Note…Clara Richards and her sister, Mrs. Rowland C. (Mary) Kellogg once lived at their family home, “The Elms,” today called “The Pillars,” and the adjoining Richards Avenue in Warrensburg, is named for them. In 1901 they founded the Richards Library.)

In West Stony Creek, Ray Schuman is building a fire boat which will soon be ready to launch on Harrisburgh Lake. Wilbur Perkins started his sawmill and has quite a stock of logs on hand to saw into boards.

Henry Raymond of Riparius is suffering from erysipelas.

Etson Hitchcock of Bakers Mills has been suffering with rheumatism for several years and is now much worse.

Martin Breen of South Glens Falls ate frankfurters and died of ptomaine poisoning the next day.

Town Board ignored citizens’ objections To the editor: Regarding the Warrensburg Town Board’s decision March 11 to rezone Stewart Farrar Ave. and Elm St. in order for Stewart’s to relocate their gas station and store; as a very close neighbor to this project and as a Warrensburg real estate Broker, I am disappointed, puzzled and angry at the Board’s approval — except f or the Nay vote of Board member John Alexander.

Thank you, John!

Yes, the Board listened to us. But it was very obvious their minds were set, totally ignoring the 450-plus signatures on petitions presented by 20 very concerned citizens, ignoring the many letters, ignoring the many valid reasons from citizens who spoke their three minutes, also ignoring fellow residents who voices were not heard — the Richards Library patrons, the children who walk to school, the parishioners of the First Presbyterian Church and the many families that use the facilities at the town recreation field. The voices of more than half of Warrensburg voters were not heard! The vote was taken to rezone, and the board just approved it.

As octogenarian, my husband and I have been long-time patients of Hudson Headwaters Health Network — the current owners of the property seeking to sell to Stewart’s — and hopefully we will remain so. We applaud Dr. John Rugge for what he and HHHN have accomplished for Warrensburg and our neighboring towns — health facilities that are much needed, and this is more than awesome!

This relocation of the Stewart’s convenience store is not in the best interest of this town that we love. We ask the town officials to please listen to the majority of Warrensburg voters! We understand many legal dollars are being spent to further this project. Isn’t it possible with this adverse publicity, other legitimate buyers would come forward for this valuable residential property on Stewart Farrar St.? I feel strongly as a Realtor this project will definitely devalue the adjoining residences and ultimately other properties.

And as a neighbor, my husband and I are just beginning to really enjoy our residence since LeCount Real Estate has moved uptown.

WARRENSBURG • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 7

The next Board of Education meeting is set for 7 p.m.

April 19 in the high school library.

Race set for elementary playground fundraiser Fundraiser set for youth mission

T

en teen parishioners of St. Cecilia's Catholic Church are headed south on a work mission this summer, and the parish is holding a fundraiser to bankroll the trip.

The church will hold a spaghetti dinner from 4 to 7:30 p.m. Saturday April 17 at the Masonic Lodge at 3893 Main St. Take-outs will be available, and the cost is $10 for adults and $5 for children. Musical entertainment and basket raffles will also be offered at the dinner.

St. Cecilia’s youth group coordinator Phyllis Welsh will be overseeing the trip of the group, accompanied by four chaperones, to Charlotte, North Carolina.

The Warrensburg youth will be working in this Catholic Heart Work mission from July 3 through July 11 alongside more than 300 other teens from all over the U.S. The teens will be cleaning up yards, painting and accomplishing many household and yard chores. Phyllis Welsh said this week she hopes that by taking the teens on a trip away from home to do work, they will return to Warrensburg with new skills and enthusiasm for various clean up and rehabilitation efforts.

The group needs $4,000 to fund the trip, so its organizers are hoping for a good turnout at the fundraiser.

Citizen of Year nominations sought The Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce is now seeking nominations for their annual Citizen of the Year award.

Nomination forms are available at the Warrensburg Town Hall, Richards Library and the Chamber of Commerce headquarters on Main St.. Chamber officials asked that when nominating someone for this honor, consider what volunteer work they have done to benefit the entire community. Applications will be accepted by mailing the form

by May 1 to: Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce, 3847 Main St., Warrensburg, NY 12885. The Citizen of the Year will be chosen at the May meeting of the Chamber ’s board of directors, and will be honored at a Chamber banquet in June.

A roster of past Citizen of the Year honorees is mounted on plaques in the town hall, and the list is available by calling the Chamber of Commerce office at 623-2161. Questions on nominations are also welcome.

WCS alumni news The Warrensburg Central School Class of 1960 will be celebrating its 50th reunion at this year's alumni dinner on August 7 at the Fort William Henry Resort.

Those WCS attendees graduates of Warrensburg School not receiving the annual newsletter sent out at the end of May, call Alice at 623-3618 and offer your mailing address and class year to be added to the mailing list.

The Alumni Association announced this week it will again be sponsoring three $400 scholarships this June to deserving graduates, thanks to the fundraisers at the annual dinner and the generosity of individual alumni.

The annual dues are $5 and checks may be sent to Maureen Sprague, 1664 Schroon River Rd., Warrensburg, NY 12885. Dues help the organization — but they are not required to attend the dinner. Details on the dinner will be published in the newsletter with an RSVP reservation form. Set aside the date and plan to attend!

School Board focuses on semantics The one public outcome of a special meeting March 22 of the Warrensburg Central Board of Education, was the decision to change the name of a monthly award series. It was decided by a vote of 5 to 3 board members, to change the WCS Student Special Achievement award to the Board of Education Student Recognition award.

This decision was the only decision made on record, but the board members met behind closed doors to discuss the school Superintendent’s annual evaluation.

A new footrace has been launched locally in an effort to raise money to provide equipment for a new Elementary school playground. Named the 5K Burgher Dash, the race is to be held May 15 beginning at 9:30 a.m. The race course starts at the Elementary School on James Street.

Water will be available along the course. Cotton T-shirts will be available to the first 250 participants. Awards are to be handed out to the top three finishers overall in the male and female divisions. A children’s fun-run will be held after the 5K event, and prizes will be given for all children who participate.

The advance entry fee for the adults’ 5K entry is $20, and these discounted entries should be postmarked by April 30. Race-day entries are $25.

Race registration packets are available in the cafeteria from 7:30 to 9:15 a.m. on race day, or early pickup is available Friday May 14 from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Elementary School cafeteria.

No refunds are to be made. The entry fees collected are considered a donation to the Warrensburg Elementary School Playground Equipment fund. For details, contact Anne Downs at 623-9747 or via email at: downesa@wcsd.org or Chris Brown at 623-5055 or cbbrown21@aol.com

Warrensburg planning efforts continue Back in 2006 the Town Board hired the municipal planners Elan Associates to oversee a survey and help local residents devise a comprehensive plan for Warrensburg, A number of representatives from various groups, including the local historical society, the town council and beautification group volunteered to serve on a committee to help Warrensburg achieve its full potential as it faces its future.

Last summer, a survey polling town residents and tourists for the ideas and visions for Warrensburg’s future was conducted. The results will be presented in a public meeting set for April 27, from 6- 9 p.m. at the Warrensburg Elementary School.

The survey results will also be posted on the town’s website, www.townofwarrensburg.org.

I for one would like to see some action taken to reduce some of the vacant, run-down and deserted storefronts and make our town more attractive to new business as well as new residents.

I discussed this concern recently with town councilman John Alexander, and he said he believes this comprehensive plan could help things move forward. This is fine with me, but when?

A stakeholders meeting will be held April 20, and it is intended to include various local organizations. Those who haven’t been notified, or to seek answers to planning questions, contact the town planning office at 623-9514.

Hike for Hope event coming up The American Society for Suicide Prevention will host Hike for Hope/Cody's Climb on Sunday May 23, from 9 a.m. to noon. The hike is up up Prospect Mountain in Lake George. Check-in time is from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.

Last year, the inaugural Cody's Climb helped educate the community about suicide prevention. Over 150 people, including a large number of students, participated and raised over $12,000 to support community education, research and survivor outreach programs.

This four-mile hike culminates with a ceremony at the summit, including guest speakers, food, raffles, prizes and music by the group Filming Ohio.

Please note that the Hike for Hope will use the paved road up Prospect ; there will be no use of the mountain trails and transportation will be available to the summit for those who would prefer not to walk the full distance.

Willows Bistro resumes evening readings WARRENSBURG — April 8 marks the return of evening sessions for the Second Thursday Readings series at Willows Bistro, 3749 Main St. as regional writers present selections from their works.

The authors are scheduled to read short and entertaining selections from their prose and poetry in a program open to the public at no charge.

Opening this month’s 7 p.m. program will be L.R. Warner of Elizabethtown, author of From the Blackest Cloud, a book based on her experience of living in the North Country in the mid-1900s and raising a child with cerebral palsy.

She is likely to bring copies of the book, and proceeds from sales benefit Upstate Cerebral Palsy. Also reading will be Kathleen O’Day of Warrensburg, whose works include stories of her teaching experiences in Native American reservation schools. Doug Deneen of Warrensburg, whose memoir pieces have been called amusing and poignant, will share new material.

The program will end with unparalleled whining, as Minerva resident Carol Gregson, known as the “Pottersville Complainer,” airs complaints she compiled over the winter.

The watercolors of Laura Neadle, primarily landscapes and still lifes, will be on display.

Writers interested in appearing at future readings are advised to sign up well in advance. To apply, stop in at Willows, call 504-4344 or email PersisGranger@aol.com.

LaFlure said that county officials have a recording of the voice reporting the crash, and they are analyzing it to determine who made the call. Already, LaFlure's staff has sent out a recording of the bogus calls to fire chiefs and emergency squad captains so they can help determine the identity of the culprit.

VanNess said the County Sheriff's Office, with the assistance of LaFlure's agency, have launched a criminal investigation and that the perpetrator, if identified, would be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law — perhaps prompting a felony charge.

The calls had a fair amount

LaFlure said that the county owns old two-way radios, without caller i.d. capability, installed in dozens of fire trucks and ambulances operated by many volunteer emergency responder agencies.

He said that Warren County will soon be abandoning these units — no longer offering service or support for them.

"We’re getting out of the radio business," he said.

Within months, LaFlure said, the county will be requiring that all emergency agencies in Warren County procure and use the newer radio systems, and they will eventually be locking out radios from access to central dispatch that are not authorized.

10 - ADIRONDACK JOURNAL • THURMAN

Our town needs the caring and compassion that was always shown by the Emergency Squad members. Remember folks, even back in Indian days that tribes only had one chief.

Please urge the town to sign the contract to provide us essential emergency care.

Jackwax Party delights many Easter brings local families together Easter came early this year on April 4, and the holiday will bring a gathering of family members in many homes in the area. Soon our fair-weather friends will be returning from the south, which was not warm this year. We welcome them all back, as we wish everyone Happy Easter.

Churches welcome all on this special Easter morning, Sunday April 4.

The Kenyontown Methodist Church, Valley Rd., will start with a midmorning pancake breakfast at 10 a.m. followed by the Sunday Easter service at 11 a.m.

The Thurman Baptist Church, South Johnsburg Rd., will have a “Son Rise” service at 11 a.m..

The Christ Community Church, on Athol Rd., also has a Son Rise special service at 7 a.m. which will be followed by a pancake and sausage breakfast. Easter services at 11 a.m.

Easter is not just a time for candy and bunnies bringing baskets, nor just for getting pretty new clothes.

Bring your family to a church of your choice to fully immerse your family in the spiritual aspects of the day.

Missing photo mystery resolved The case of the missing picture of Elmer Buyce, taken off the wall of the Thurman Town Hall, has been solved. As soon as the March 21 Adirondack Journal was distributed, the person involved -- honest and thoughtful -- called to say the picture of Elmer was borrowed to hang on the wall at the local Baptist Church for the recent party which honored Elmer and Myrtle. By the time this gets to print it will once again be returned to the Town Hall.

As you tackle the challenging chore of spring cleaning and sorting things, remember to keep a box handy to put the items in that you wish to put in your garage sale in conjunction with the townwide sale, set for May 14, 15 and 16.

Our ambulance corps is vital Have you all taken notice that we could lose the services of our emergency squad? You may or may not need ambulance services right now, but you never know when you could be the one dialing 911. It could be for your neighbor, for a nearby car accident, or for a family member.

This is why our emergency squad is in need of our help, not only in recruiting new members, but also in letting them know that they have public support.

Unfortunately because of some misunderstandings and harsh words between a few members, the whole town and its residents may have to suffer in emergency situations.

As of March 20 the $38,000 or so in annual funding from the town was still withheld, and that leaves our squad without a contract. So now we need to beg our squad, and our town board members to bury the hatchet, to get together to make decisions and not subject our town to the political dirt now prevalent in government generally.

Emergency Squad From page 1 the last three months of 2009 to only 3 of 24 from January through March.

Ordinarily, the county dispatchers radio squads in nearby towns if the hometown ambulance crew doesn’t respond within six minutes. Apparently, the county dispatch system had stopped relying on the Thurman squad to respond to emergency calls in the town, officials said.

But McKinney said that nothing had changed — the squad was continuing its established routine of “mutual aid” with Warrensburg.

However, Chris Norton, Assistant county EMS Coordinator said that all calls from Thurman are sent to Warrensburg Emergency Squad to be dispatched immediately.

Thurman’s decline in responses correlates to the squad’s board suspending then expelling the Bakers. This mother-and-son team, residing near the EMS building, had responded quickly to almost every call, townspeople said.

Grievances against the squad for removing the treasurer and her son were expressed by people present at the meeting. For instance, Bob Russell, a squad member, said from the audience, “I could always count on their being there.”

McKinney expressed interest in acquiring paid staffers. But he added there was no present plan for staff to come to sleep at the squad house. There is no television, he said.

“I was looking if we have the money to put in a room,” he said. “We don’t have the facilities to support volunteers.”

He said that Newcomb has only 50 to 70 calls a year, but has a $170,000 budget.

“The only way we’ll get people there is a paid staff,” he said.

Pitkin disputed the idea.

“I don’t see how Thurman can afford it,” he said.

On Saturday March 14 the Thurman town hall was crowded to overflowing with folks of all ages enjoying the annual Jackwax Party — socializing, sampling the savory dishes in the buffet of homemade entrees, finished off with sugar on snow. Over 180 adults, plus children and helpers all enjoyed a very tasty covered dish dinner and a total of $1,800 will be given to the American Cancer Crusade, plus a donation from Bard medical devices company.

Helen Baker, the lady who annually organizes the Jackwax party every year, expresses thanks to her family members including Craig Baker, Kylie and Amanda Baker for their help.

Thanks also go to the Warren County Ramblers band, Jack Toney, the Golden Corral and the Whitefields for their donations. Also very appreciated are the Jackwax helpers including Mary Fish, the Ligons, Paula Hubert, George Chonko, the youth detention group, Courtney Baker, Becky Parker, Wendy Davis, Katelyn Keller, Kathy Zimmerman, and the M. Kenyons. For the donation of maple syrup, thanks go to Jim Galusha, D&D Needham, Marc Kenyon, Mike Hill and partner, Stuart Baker and Yves Fontaine and Floyd Baker. A big Thank You also goes out to all the people who brought in food dishes and drinks — without your help we couldn’t hold this special event. Also, we think of Jean Reynolds, who for decades organized this annual event.

Over the fence Several calls came in concerning the gripes published in the March 20 Adirondack Journal. One was on the cemetery committee money which the town took over and put in an account for cemetery use. Therefore it can be used at any time for any purchases, we hear, and now the slips have to be turned in at the town hall for reimbursement.

Many called about the Emergency Medical Services dilemma. See our coverage this week on the issue.

We do seem to get plenty of responses — except when we ask for volunteers — and why is that?

The local maple syrup producers said the “sap running” season was very short this year. Expect to pay more for the home made syrup, they said this week The last day to pay property taxes at the town hall was on March 27. Payments must now be sent directly to the Warren County Treasurer.

Burning permits can be picked up at the Thurman Town Clerk’s office on or after May 15.

Special days in Thurman Happy Birthday wishes go out this week to Robin Witz and Don Haskell on April 3; to Nathan Galusha, Louis Mosher, and Darcie Carpenter on April 4; to John Parker and Jim Galusha on April 5; to Karen Reynolds, Ed Wells, Terry Vernum and Missy Rounds on April 7; to Barb Wagner, Bob Sullivan, and to Bruce Sherman on April 8. We wish you all a happy day.

Anniversary wishes go out to Ruth and Art Wadsworth on April 5, to Ken and Steph Gossen on April 6, to Jen and Will Hill on April 7, and to Fran and Jerry Remington on April 9.

McKinney said that daytime calls presented a big problem, considering that people were busy working.

McKinney said that EMS squads all over the state are facing ever more restrictive training requirements.

“The state is shoving everything down our throats,” he said. Pitkin sympathized, noting he looked into training to become an EMT, and it required three hours per week for six months.

McKinney proposed adding an EMS staffer to the town payroll, with the town assigning duties during the many hours not responding to emergencies.

“He could clean up cemeteries,” McKinney said.

Pitkin, however, expressed reservations about paid staffing.

“You’re asking me to pay for drivers, an ambulance, and our people are getting billed?” he said.

A discussion ensued about “soft” billing for services, a practice when patients and their insurance companies are billed, but the charges are not pursued with individuals if the person who is served by the ambulance cannot afford it.

The Warrensburg emergency squad captain Steve Emerson said that even with payments for ambulance service the squad finances were “very hard.” He said that Medicaid reimburses only $70 and Medicare $270 per call. Pitkin said that the most soft billing would bring in annually would be $42,000, not enough to underwrite paid daytime staff.

Jill Nelson, who had ALS certification and was Thurman squad’s past president until she discontinued her membership, said billing for services would displace donations.

“If we go to a paid squad, once we start billing, we can kiss our $6,000 donations goodbye,” she said.

Various other options for the squad were discussed.

Norton suggested the Thurman squad be-

SATURDAY April 3, 2010 Get Well wishes go out to Cal Engle, Mary Winslow, Elmer Buyce, Ed Brown and Iva Hall and Cliff Dureau. Also, we’re all grieving the loss of John Cooper, long-time school crossing guard, who passed away this week.

Town job positions now open Applications are now being sought for job openings in the Thurman town summer recreation program. Positions are now open for a director — minimum age, 18 — for two counselors, at least age 14 — and one assistant counselor, a minimum of age 13.

Application forms are now available at the town hall. The deadline for submitting them is April 30 and they can be dropped off at the town hall or sent to P.O. Box 29, Athol.

Local fundraiser deemed a success The Girl Scout troops from Warrensburg and Thurman recently completed their food drive for 2010 and helped to fill food pantries in both towns. A big Thank You goes out to the troop members and to Lisa Baker of Drexel Rd. who has been a Girl Scout leader for 22 years.

The daffodil sale in our area totaled $700 in donations to the American Cancer crusade. Thanks go to Ruth Near and Lenny Baker who helped at the Warrensburg Elementary School alongside Lisa Baker, head of the daffodil sales.

Events and activities planned The John Thurman Historical Society will meet at 7 p.m.

Tuesday April 6 at the town hall. Two special guests will be featured: Edward Buyck and Winslow Homer, two artists of the north woods. Meetings are open to the public.

The Thurman Volunteer Fire company will meet at 7 p.m.

Monday April 5 when they will elect officers for the upcoming year. The group’s meetings are open to the public.

The Southern Adirondack Four-Wheeler Club hopes to see as many of its members attend its next meeting at 7 p.m. Friday April 9 at the Thurman Town Hall. Prospective members are also urged to attend.

The Thurman Emergency Medical Services Squad will be holding a “members only” meeting at 6 p.m. Sunday April 4 to discuss the recent issues that have emerged. The group’s regular meeting is scheduled for April 18. To join the squad, call 623-9014 and leave a message, or stop by the April 18 meeting.

The Gleaning food distribution will occur at the town hall at 10 a.m. Tuesday April 6. This free food program is open to all Thurman residents. Bring clean used bags in which to take home the distributed food.

The free bus service for all residents age 60 or over will pick seniors up at home for a shopping trip to Glens Falls on Friday April 9. Those who wish to go call Laura at 623-9281

by Wednesday.

Easter party planned Bring the children to the town hall to meet the Easter Bunny on Saturday April 3 at the annual town Easter party and egg hunt.

This family event is set for 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. and all are invited to attend and enjoy this seasonal celebration.

Children from infants to age 12 are welcome and should be accompanied by an adult. An Easter bonnet contest is being held, and snacks will be available. This event is sponsored by the Thurman Youth Commission.

ing absorbed into the Warrensburg agency, making Thurman a substation. He said such an arrangement would boost oversight and efficiency, while allowing immediate adoption of Warrensburg’s practice of billing.

The issue of Thurman’s Advanced Life Support certification being at risk, due to its recent low transport figures and slow response rate, was discussed.

Councilman James Ligon asked Norton about the possibility that the county was thinking of combining all its EMS agencies.

Norton said discussions of the concept have

been aired, and said such a decision was up to the regional Mountain Lakes EMS Council.

Emerson said that that Warrensburg taking over Thurman’s calls would not be his first choice. He encouraged the squad and town to work out their issues.

McKinney said that he did not want to see the dissolution of the Thurman squad.

Pitkin, McKinney, Emerson, and Norton agreed to meet in several weeks to work out the issues.

OUTDOORS • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 11

Trout season is here!

B

y all indications, area anglers will soon be enjoying the earliest ‘ice out’ in recent memory. Currently, ponds in the Saranac Lake area are on the cusp of opening up, while numerous waters to the south and west have already shed winter ’s white cap.

Many local ponds are already sporting the telltale ‘spider webs’ which indicate their ice is soon to go. The shorelines of most ponds are also beginning to open up, which will provide productive angling opportunities around trees, brush, outlets and inlets.

Areas around inlets will provide some of the best early season opportunities especially on waters with smelt populations, as the annual run of the slim, silvery swimmers typically begins soon after the full Sap Moon, which passed on March 30th.

Over the course of my first 20 years of guiding, I rarely provided a fishing trip on the ponds prior to the first weekend in May. In fact, there were several years when the ice cover prevented access to the ponds until Mothers Day weekend.

However, for the past dozen years, I’ve usually had a boat on the ponds during the month of April, but rarely as early as the season opener.

Boater’s Seat Belt Law Anglers planning to jumpstart the trout season with an early visit to the ponds, should be aware of Section 40, Subdivision 1 of the NYS Navigation Law which requires “each person on board pleasure vessels less than twenty-one feet, including rowboats, canoes, and kayaks must wear a securely fastened United States Coast Guard approved personal flotation device of an appropriate size when such vessel is underway between November first and May first.”

Failure to wear a lifejacket is a violation of the Navigation Law and is punishable by a fine of not less than $25 nor more than $100, applicable to either the operator and/or the owner of the vessel.

The new, ‘Cold Water Boating’ regulation is similar to NY state’s mandatory seatbelt law and affects all boaters in vessels under 21 feet in length during the months when emersion in cold water poses the greatest danger to boaters. A seat cushion doesn’t count; a PFD must be worn.

A long road in the Adirondacks Last weekend I journeyed to Hamilton, NY for the 29th annual Rendezvous of the NYS Outdoor Guides Association.

The gathering was well attended and the seminars provided participants with a wealth of outdoor knowledge.

The featured speaker was Jerry Jenkins, a well-known botanist, naturalist and the author of The Adirondack Atlas, as well as the soon to be released book, Climate Change in the Adirondacks: The Path to Sustainability.

Jenkins' address, which focused primarily on the affects of climate change on the Adirondacks, was an eye-opener for many of the assembled outdoorsmen and women.

He illustrated the presentation with a combination of charts and graphs, which provided insights into the effects that can be expected as temperatures continue to rise over the next century.

Predictions included a diminishing number of winter days with snow cover, a later freezing over of lakes and ponds and earlier ice outs. Seasons will no longer be as distinctive

as the length of winter diminishes.

Summers will be hotter and drier and the boreal forest will gradually disappear, along with many common species of birds and wildlife.

Weather extremes will become more common, with heavier rains, hotter days and even greater snowfalls.

The most notable change will be cultural, as the region’s long history of winter sports will become increasingly vulnerable to the warming climate. As Jenkins sadly noted, “The ski, the snowshoe and the snowmobile are as much Adirondack symbols as the guideboat or the paddle.”

After traveling south through the Adirondack communities of Long Lake, Raquette Lake and Old Forge, which were all nearly snowless, I found Jenkins’ presentation especially disturbing.

On the return trip north, I traveled Route 8 from Ohio to Morehouse to Speculator, and finally from Wells to Schroon Lake. Along the route, I found scant evidence of a hard winter. A few lakes were already open and there were no towering snowbanks along the roadside; rivers weren’t roaring with high water and only a few riverbanks were cluttered with blocks of ice.

Following a hunting season that offered just a single day of actual tracking snow, the growing evidence of global warming is difficult to deny.

In concept, as Jenkins explained, climate change can be arrested, however the process will require a worldwide effort of concerned citizens and others with the political will to make a difference. The process will require major sacrifices and new forms of energy consumption and development.

Unfortunately, the longer we forestall implementation of such measures, the sooner we will suffer the consequences.

The saddest irony of the whole equation is that our parents toiled through the Great Depression, and then saved the world in World War II. They were the “Greatest Generation.”

They lived to see a man on the moon, and gave birth to a generation that wanted to give back to the earth. However, at some point along the route, the 70’s environmentalists became more concerned with a big house on the hill and two SUV’s in the yard.

Greenbacks replaced green stripes as an overtly consumptive tenor overtook a generation that had promised to make a difference. At our current rate of consumption, I often won-

A wide expanse of open water near the Browns Tract Inlet on Raquette Lake awaits anglers as a new trout season begins. der about the world our children will inherit. Will it look anything like it did when we were given the responsibility for it? Will we become the “Damnedest Generation”?
