Carousel arrives in Lake George

KITCHEN QUEEN

This Week ELIZABETHTOWN

IN WARRENSBURG

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — In several weeks, Lake George is likely to have a more festive atmosphere due to an installation underway this week at a landmark downtown enterprise.

A colorful carousel, complete with two chariots, 30 horses, two twirling tubs and 1,200 lights, was being installed April 16 near the corner of Beach Rd. and Canada St., off the patio of a series of eateries owned by Tom Zeppieri and Theodore Cervini.

The imported Italian carousel is to be flanked by a bumper car attraction on one side and bumper boats on the other, replacing the former Putts N Prizes miniature golf course, which in recent years fell into disrepair.

The carousel is the first one installed in the village since Charlie Wood brought one to Gaslight Village many decades ago, said Luisa Craige-Sherman, director of the Lake George Business Partnership.

“This carousel is unique in the village, and it will have CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

WARRENSBURG— 15 candidates have stepped forward to fill nine open positions on boards of education in northern Warren County school districts in the readership

area of the Adirondack Journal.

The two races prompting the most candidates were Lake George and Warrensburg, where there’s been the most controversy over budget issues in recent years.

All races are determined by choosing the candidates receiving the most votes, rather than candi-

er school enhancements.

Before the show, she told Adirondack Journal reporter Katie Clark that she was surprised that year after year the demand for tickets for her Lake George appearances remains strong — that people would actually pay to see her in person again and again.

Town ready to launch fund drive for bandstand upgrades

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The most prominent landmark in the town of Warrensburg has suffered substantial decay, and local government officials want to see it refurbished.

The Floyd Bennett Memorial Bandstand was built and dedicated in 1926 to the aviator who flew Richard Byrd on the duo’s historic attempt to reach the north pole in 1926.

For many decades since, the image of the bandstand has been used as the logo representing Warrensburg to the world.

But in recent years, the bandstand hasn’t appeared as pristine as its pictures, with rotting columns, cracking brickwork and peeling paint.

Since 2009, town officials have been seeking grants to restore the bandstand to its glo-

ry, but to date, they’ve been declined.

Wednesday April 11, Warrensburg town board members — frustrated over the lack of state aid — said they were set to launch a public fundraising drive to bankroll the bandstand’s reconstruction.

Board members said they’d likely be contacting individuals and people in town, asking them to contribute towards the $225,000 or so needed to refurbish the bandstand, a project that would include rebuilding its crumbling foundation, updating its aging plumbing and electrical fixtures, and installing modern, handicapped-accessible public rest rooms.

Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty suggested that individuals and enterprises be solicited to “adopt” a column on the bandstand, perhaps for $10,000.

At the April 11 meeting, local resident Alan Hall Sr. proclaimed he was committing

meet town code.

Discussion has also emerged, Rounds reported, on the fabric garages and shelters that people have been erecting in recent years on their properties. Town board members noted that other municipalities had wrestled with ordinances to regulate or ban them. Rounds suggested that perhaps such fabric shelters should be prohibited from front yards.

A public hearing is set for 7 p.m. May 9 on amendments to the town zoning code, Geraghty said.

“Residents should remember, this is a working document — a work in progress, subject to change,” he said.

Also at the April 11 meeting, the Warrensburg Town Board: • approved an Occupancy Tax grant of $2,916 to the Warrensburg Historical Society for promotional materials and advertising; •endorsed an application from the Adirondack Rural Health Network for $3,000 to repair and refurbish the town’s two basketball courts off Sanford St.; •invited all local residents to participate in the Earth Day cleanup event set for Sunday April 22, in which people will be removing litter from trails up Hackensack Mountain as well as on sidewalks and other property through town. Those participating are asked to meet at the town hall at 11 a.m.; • announced that a workshop meeting between officials of the towns of Lake George and Warrensburg would be held at 3 p.m.

April 23 in the Warrensburg town hall, primarily to discuss water service to the proposed Price Chopper supermarket development on Prosser Rd. near Northway Exit 23.

• heard from Supervisor Geraghty that several commercial entities are interested in purchasing the former car wash property on Richards Ave. that was remediated for underground petroleum pollution, and reuse of the property has recently been cleared by the state Department of Environmental Conservation.

$1,000 to the restoration, and challenged others in the audience to match his pledge.

Geraghty said that one opportunity remained at this point for grant funding, and that was the First Wilderness Corridor Initiative. He said he was meeting with Warren County Planner Wayne LaMothe this week to explore submitting a grant application under this program.

In other business, the town board approved contracting with National Grid to install energy-saving fixtures at the town hall and other local government facilities.

The initial cost of the upgrades, about $11,000, would be amortized over many months by the firm. But by cutting electricity use, the project would yield a net savings of about $170 per month in National Grid bills.

Additionally, Geraghty informed the town board that there are about 800 more water meters to be installed in local homes before the town starts charging by gallons rather than arbitrary units. With town employees swapping out new meters for older models in local homes at a rate of 8 per day, Geraghty said the project would likely be completed by October. Local businesses are already paying for water by the gallons used — plus a flat rate — as all the commercial meters have been installed.

Also, board member Bryan Rounds said that the town’s zoning committee is discussing various amendments to the town’s zoning ordinance. One of these regulations would restrict people from parking their recreational vehicles within a certain minimum distance to their property line — and Rounds said such regulations ought to be left up to common sense and neighborly consideration. Also, discussion has been aired, Rounds said, about updating the sign ordinance and whether to “grandfather” existing non-conforming signs that don’t meet town regulations. Board member Linda Marcella suggested that town law should specify that if an enterprise replaces its sign, it should

proprietor Claudia Wheeler has used to train them.

The day’s events are to include Wheeler offering demonstrations of the Paso Finos breed, known for their smooth four-beat lateral gait.

Young visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a pony ride, visit with the barnyard chickens or pet the resident rabbit.Having tallied 30 years’ experience in animal care and training, Wheeler will likely be talking with visitors about her horse training techniques based on animal instinct, body language and communication.

She’s learned such natural training techniques from a number of experts, in-

cluding Pat Parelli, John Lyons and Monty Roberts — the famed "Horse Whisperer."

Wheeler will also likely be answering questions about animal care and nutrition, as well as equine Reiki — and her array of services including riding lessons.

Visitors are welcome to bring a bag lunch to enjoy at her picnic table while appreciating the local scenic views.

SERVING THE DISTINCT NEEDS OF SENIORS

An Adirondack Journal reader called this week, posing the question of why in the past many rural households routinely saved bees wax for years. The woman that called said she remembers her mom using pieces of it to straighten out the gnarly thread to sew with. Evidently, in years gone by thread was not as smooth and easy to work with and drawing it over the beeswax put a finish on it. The other use that we know of was rubbing a 3- or 4-inch piece back and forth over the fiddle string, employing it as rosin.

Adirondack Journal Editorial

Online historic newspapers an asset

F

or years, loyal readers, researchers and editorial staffers have yearned to flip through back issues of the various papers owned

by Denton Publications, whether they want information from two years in the past, 20 years ago or all the way back in the 1800s. Well, we have some good news.

We recently signed an agreement with the Potsdam-based Northern New York Library Network to have News Enterprise issues from 1924 to the present digitized and placed on a searchable website. We will soon be part of the Northern New York Historical Newspapers project, located online at http://news.nnyln.net.

The Northern New York Library Network is a consortium of public, academic and specialized libraries chartered to improve library service for North Country residents. It has a long history of newspaper preservation, including preservation microfilming in the 1980s and local coordination of the New York State Newspaper Project in the 1990s.

In 2004, the network launched Northern New York Historical Newspapers to enhance access to the region’s local history. Serving seven counties — Essex, Franklin, Clinton, St. Lawrence, Lewis, Jefferson and Oswego — the online collection now contains almost 2.3 million pages from 52 newspapers. The newspapers span more than 200 years.

The oldest issues on the website come from the Plattsburgh Republican and date from 1811, three years before the famed Battle of Plattsburgh during the War of 1812. In the April 12, 1811 issue, we find out who has mail left at the post office, who died that week, who got married, who wrote letters to the editor, and which state senators’ seats needed to be filled during the lieutenant governor ’s election.

For the history buff, the genealogy hobbyist and the serious researcher, Northern New York Historical Newspapers is a treasure trove of information.

People can easily get mesmerized by the volumes of stories here. Time flies when you are having fun learning about local history.

The process of digitizing the News Enterprise from 1924 to the present will be routine. The Adirondack Museum’s librarian has graciously given us permission to use their microfilm copies of

April 21, 2012

the paper and will loan them to the NNYLN. The microfilm will be scanned, and the images will be run through optical character recognition (OCR) software and be indexed. The indexed images will then be placed on the Network’s web server, interfaced with a search engine and made available to the public over the Internet.

When we began researching this project in February, we didn’t know how much the digitization project would cost or where we would put the issues online. After all, the Northern New York Historical Newspapers project does not serve most of the News Enterprise’s readership: the Warren County town of Johnsburg and the Hamilton County towns of Indian Lake and Long Lake.

Luckily, our paper serves the Essex County towns of Minerva and Newcomb, so we were welcomed into the Network’s family.

And, because we are part of the family, digitizing the News Enterprise will be free for us. We can’t thank the Network and the Adirondack Museum enough for their generosity.

We’re not sure when the back issues of the News Enterprise will be available online, but we’re hoping it will be sometime in 2012. We hope to get even more historic newspapers online in the future.

Other newspapers in the Denton lineage currently available on Northern New York Newspapers are the Ticonderoga Sentinel (forefather of the Times of Ti), the Rouses Point North Countryman (forefather of the North Countryman) and the Essex County Republican (forefather of the Valley News).

Our history is there: “This issue of the Essex County Republican begins a new chapter in this paper ’s long and distinguished career of service to its many North Country readers,” began the May 10, 1968 issue of the Essex County Republican, announcing that Denton Publications had acquired the Essex County Republican.

April 21, 2012

•100 Years Ago – April 1912• Horse attempts suicide?

Driven to despair by the recent increase of “buzz-wagons” or automobiles in Warrensburgh, a local horse cut his throat with a pane of glass.

Viewing the trend with deep concern — and seeing in this the eventual decay of his race, a philosophical horse owned by R.D. Cowles of Lewisville, philosophized to such an extent April 19, 1912 that he became mentally unbalanced and in a moment of desperate despondency was determined to “shuffle” off this mortal string of vertebrae.

The animal thrust his head through the pane of glass which separated him from the outside world of smoke - belching vehicles and a couple of rubbed his head neck several times against the jagged edge of the broken window pane. However, he did not know how much a horse could stand — although one of the arteries in the neck was severed, he still tarried in this world of worry and woe.

Local veterinary surgeon Dr. Alfred J. Pitcher was summoned and he closed the wound with a number of stitches. The horse is now making a rapid progress toward recovery.

Fire rescue sets a record The Glens Falls Fire Department established a record on the morning of April 14, 1912 by extinguishing in 45 minutes a stubborn fire which broke out in the Linehan Hotel, a three-story structure at 57 Glen St. and at the same time rescuing four persons from the second and third stories by means of ladders. The building’s damage was estimated at about $1,000 which was covered by insurance.

The only person injured was Harvey Delavarge, a man about 70 years old and a Civil War veteran. The old man occupied the

room in which the fire started, a small apartment in the rear of the barroom. He was rescued by several firemen but not before the hair was burned from his head and his left hand was burned.

The fire was discovered by Miss Nora Linehan, the proprietor ’s daughter who occupied a room on the third story. She tried to put out the fire but was unsuccessful and had to arouse help. Her mother, Mrs. Linehan, on the second floor, escaped in her nightclothes. She was taken down a ladder by a fireman.

Two men boarders were rescued in a similar manner from a third story just as they were about to jump out of the window. It is thought that the fire started by carelessly discarded cigar stubs. Happily, no lives were lost.

Spring brings happy changes Lake George is now practically clear of ice, the largest part of it having gone out the night of April 21, 1912.

The snow has all disappeared in West Stony Creek and the grass is looking quite green in many places thereabouts. Six large deer were seen in the early morning back of the Perkins place. Two large flocks of wild geese passed over a few days ago, flying toward Lake George.

A number of automobiles, just out of winter storage, were buzzing around town in Minerva on Sunday afternoon, April 21, 1912 for the first time this season. Everyone is invited to the home of David Jones for a maple sugar social.

Work started in the Gore Mountain garnet mines in North River for the season on Monday morning, April 22, 1912, with a small crew of men. William Ross and his wife went April 22, 1912 to Foxlair Camp in Bakers Mills where they will be employed for the summer by Richard A. Hudnut. Robert Ward of Sodom will work there also.

Fancy new rig in town Soper & Somerville have purchased a 20passenger Stanley Steamer auto stage with baggage carrier for their WarrensburghThurman mail and passenger route. It is expected that the machine will be put in service on April 29, 1912. George Moore is now at the factory learning to run it.

Gift made to the library The Warrensburgh News has presented Richards Library with a bound volume of our village newspaper for 1910 through 1911. A great deal of emphasis is made at all library meetings on the duty of the library in compiling local biography and history. The great value of possessing The News in bound form can be readily appreciated.

(The Warrensburgh News and its successor newspapers, the Warrensburg-Lake George News and Adirondack Journal, continued to be bound and presented to the library through the 1990s.)

Seeking site for fish hatchery It is possible that the new fish hatchery to be built in Warrensburgh will be established during the present season. The location has not yet been decided upon but the local fishermen are of the opinion that the most desirable site is on the big brook, where it comes down from Harrington Hill and empties into the Schroon River. The brook never dries up and its waters are always pure as well as plentiful. (Note: This site was not chosen.

The hatchery was built on the old Ben Glynn farm in Warrensburgh, on the banks of the Hudson River.)

Business thriving in area Frank G. and Marshal B. Stone have sold their Warrensburgh barbershop business to Roscoe Hadden, who recently graduated from the Moler Barber Institute in New York City, and will conduct a drug store in another part of the same building, now occupied

by W.L. Smith’s lunch room and ice cream parlor. Mr. Smith will move his business into a store formerly occupied by H.B. Sanders.

Dickinson & Bertrand, at their Rexall store in Warrensburgh, will make their customers a big ice cream soda at their soda fountain with all fresh fruit for 19 cents.

Alonzo H. Sherman, at his new store in the Pasko block, will sell new Dayton & Haverford bicycles, a high grade wheel, from $22 to $27. Repairing is promptly done. Call Warrensburgh 6F21 on the telephone.

Herbert Tripp has opened a grain store on the old post office building in Stony Creek.

News roundabout A summary of all industries of New York State, in cities of from 10,000 to 50,000, issued by the census bureau for 1909, shows that Glens Falls has 68 industries employing 3,048 people.

How many Warrensburgh wives will join a Cincinnati woman in her demand for a curfew law be put into effect compelling husbands to be in their own homes every night at 9 o’clock?

Mrs. O.J. Lewis drove from Riverbank to Bolton Landing recently. O.J. Lewis walked beside the rig all the way. Mrs. Lewis and the mud are gaining too much for the poor horse to pull.

Nearly everybody in Sodom has a cold.

J.D. Dunn is building a piazza on his house in Garnet and H.F. Kenyon is building a new chimney on his house there. Allie Pasco has moved his family into Charles Smith’s tenant house on High St. in Athol. Walter Glassbrook of Stony Creek is a student at the Troy Business College.

Thought for the Day: The human soul weighs 30 grams according to Dr. Ivan Kerstoff of St. Petersburg, Russia. He placed a dying man on a weighing machine which registered that decrease. Similar experiments with animals showed no diminution of weight at death.

Letters to the Editor Thanks for library story To the Adirondack Journal: Thanks to the Adirondack Journal for publishing a fine article about Richards Library in its April 14 issue. I’d like to elaborate a little further: Averaged over the entire service area, the proposed levy for the library would mean an annual payment of $18 for a property assessed at $100,000. (The amount would vary a bit among the several towns in the service area due to their different equalization rates.) If the $100,000 property were home to a family of three, that would be $6 per capita per year. For a family of six, it would be $3 per capita.

Since the payment is based on the value of the property, not the number of people living there, a larger family would pay less per capita than a smaller family, given equal property value.

Every other library in Warren County receives more than triple the public funding level of Richards Library — they average five times the level — and only three of the 53 libraries in the four-county Southern Adirondack Library System receive as low a level. The levy will result in the entire service area contributing to support the library’s operations, not just the town of Warrensburg, which comprises only two-thirds of the population served.

Richards Library provided service for more than 100 years at no cost to the public, but now it must ask for help in order to survive. Public funding for its operating budget will enable the library to use its diminishing general fund balance to complete the new addition at no further cost to the public. This will mean more services, programs, computers and high-tech devices, exhibition space, comfortable seating, community meeting room, and handicapped access.

The levy request will be Proposition #3 on the May 15 school ballot, even though the library has no affiliation with the school.

Paul Gilchrist Diamond Point Richards Library Trustee

Loves the Richards Library To the Adirondack Journal: I love the Richard’s Library! I’m a recent transplant to Warrensburg from flatlander territory (Brooklyn, N.Y.) and the location of the town library was on of my first questions.

Everything about my library is special from the moment I push open the wood/glass door to view the massive fireplace to when I leave and walk down the long pathway to the street.

Keeping it funded at the proposed level will only cost individual taxpayers about $1.50/month and it is SO WORTH this small expense.

MacMillen Construction moves into former Chester firehouse Joins forces with architect

By Katherine Clark

denpubs@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — MacMillen Construction has recently joined forces with an architect as well as establishing a new headquarters downtown.

In 2000, MacMillen Construction owner John MacMillen launched his business, working out of his home in Chestertown.

This January, MacMillen, along with architectural designer Michael Rice, opened their new shop at the former Chestertown Fire Department firehall at 20 Church St. The new headquarters and collaboration

with Rice means the enterprise can provide a wider range of services, MacMillen said this week.

“We have expanded to offer our customers every element here they need to build their dream home,” he said.

Rice, owner of Rice Architectural Design of Warrensburg, had worked with MacMillen since 2007 and the two combined their skills to build Adirondack-style homes.

After 11 years working in his house, MacMillen said his family business had outgrown his shop and expansion was the next step.

“We have the room here to house everything we need for our business,” MacMillen said, referring to the historic local firehall.

This new location offers a full design and construction services, backed up by with a wide range of experience provided by Rice, MacMillen and his wife, and their six employees.

MacMillen said his company can now offer assistance at all phases of new home construction or remodeling including finding and procuring suitable land, architecture and design, building a home and upgrading

the landscaping.

MacMillen said that his collaboration with Rice offers customers a single source for all their construction project needs.

“We can do it all — we can excavate, design and build all in-house,” he said.

MacMillen Construction can be contacted at: (518) 494-3616 or via email at: johnmacmillen@macmillenconstruction.com.

Warrensburg water billing changes WARRENSBURG — Commercial customers of the Warrensburg Water District recently received a quarterly bill, the first under a new billing system under the town’s new commercial rate and usage charges.

The commercial rate is $390 per year or $97.50 per quarter. The usage rate is $3.90 per 1,000 gallons of water used. Commercial

WARRENSBURG — A presentation of three acclaimed films on the topics of sustainable agriculture and the local food movement will be presented by Warrensburgh Beautification in cooperation with the Adirondack Mountain Garden Club, Adirondack Harvest and the newly formed Adirondack Farm-to-Pantry Initiative. The free series will be held in the coming weeks at Grind N Gears Cafe at 3897 Main St. in Warrensburg. Owned and operated

by Warrensburg native Sarah Morgan, this enterprise promotes exercise and healthy eating, using local

ingredients whenever possible. The event is free.

The first film in the series, “Dirt! The Movie, will be presented at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 26. This film explores the environmental, economic, social and political impact of soil, from its pristine state to its degradation.

The second film, “Food, Inc.,” will be presented at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 10. The documentary exposes how the nation’s food supply is controlled by corporations that often put profit ahead of public health, the environment, and the livelihood of the American farmer, according to Teresa Whalen, an organizer of the event.

The third film, “Small

Farms Rising,” will be presented at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 24.

This one-hour documentary includes extensive footage of the daily work of first-generation farmers in the Adirondacks and the Champlain Valley who have reinvented family farming operations through innovative approaches, Whalen said. Small-scale agriculture is depicted in the film as a benefit to the health of local economies and the communities they serve — if supported by community demand.

Adirondack Harvest partnered with Mountain Lakes PBS and photographer/director/ Ben Stechschulte to produce this film.

Rachael Ray talks about life in Adirondacks, offers advice to youth

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — I sat in the Lake George High School library, awaiting the arrival of celebrity talkshow host Rachael Ray who was offering media interviews prior to her annual local benefit show April 12 .

The celebrity chef entered the room, and without turning around, I immediately recognized her voice.

There were many questions I sought to ask Rachael Ray about her hit television shows, her bestselling cookbooks, her extensive charity work; but I was most interested in relating to her as the girl once voted “Most Creative” at Lake George High — the girl from the Adirondacks that grew up to take over the world, one recipe at a time.

First off, I admitted to her that I was doing my best not to jump up and down like a school girl, and she responded to my frank admission with cool assurance.

AJ: You were voted “Most Creative” in high school — was this a factor in launching your career?

RR: “Was I really? I don’t even remember that, but all right, good for me!” — (laughs).

AJ: What were some of your early creative talents, and how do you get to use them now?

RR: “I loved to draw; I loved to write. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson were my favorite teachers (at Lake George Elementary). My homeroom was the art studio. I liked the Wilsons so much I’d find any reason to hang out with them. We didn’t have jewelry-making and photography and all that, but I used to like to draw and paint. Now, I doodle a bit, but I don’t draw as much as I’d like to.

“And, I love photography. I make picture-books all the time I’m obsessed with iBooks. My dog gets her own book. Every year she loves to go apple picking, And she thinks all the apples are juicy balls and I take the same pictures

Celebrity chef and talk show host Rachael Ray instructs Natalie DiStefano of Ballston Spa how to prepare Chicken Cordon Bleu during her annual benefit show at Lake George High School, Ray’s alma mater. Held Thursday, April 12 in the school auditorium, it was the first time in the show’s history that an audience member was invited onstage to help concoct an entree.

Rachael Ray from page 1 She also talked of her appreciation for her hometown in Lake George and beauty of the lower Adirondacks — and how it kept bringing her back to her hideaway vacation home in Lake Luzerne — more than ever in recent years.

Her Luzerne home provided a welcome respite, she said, from the grind of taping more than 1,000 television episodes per year for the five shows she hosts, either daily or weekly, she said.

“The more I travel and the older I get — like the Wizard of Oz says — ‘There’s no place like home.’”

Hometown Rachael Ray fans Kari Badger of Fort Edward and Kathy Akler of Queensbury, who had center-section second-row seats, said they've been fans of Rachael Ray since she appeared on Albany television WRGB-6’s “30-minute meals” segments and in local Price Chopper commercials.

The two laughed about how in one early show, she set off the studio’s smoke alarm and created havoc.

“She’s come a long way since,” Badger quipped.

While Badger and Akler were veteran fans attending the Lake George show, newlywed Rita Dejnozka of Saratoga County was seeing Rachael Ray in person for the first time.

She said that Rachael Ray might as well be her secret accomplice in her kitchen.

“I like how she uses everyday ingredients that I’d actually have in my fridge or cabinets,” she said. “Her cookbooks have very simple meals that really impress my husband — but he doesn’t have any idea how easy they really are.”

April Whetstone of Ballston Spa brought her daughter Shalyn, 9, to see the perky, durable star in person.

Whetstone said Shalyn enjoys cooking often, playing the role of Rachael Ray in the kitchen while she prepares food, as if she has a studio audience before her. Her favorite dish, she said, was Rachael's Mini-Meaty Loaf, baked up in a muffin pan.

“I like how Rachael pours ingredients, like me, in her hands and tosses it into the dish,” she said. “It’s measuring with love, as my mother used to say.”

Besides Shalyn, there were dozens of other young fans in the audience. One of them was Sydney Eggleston, 10, who traveled from Maine to see her. She had drawn up a

sign calling attention to her long-distance trek, but the long-distance fan award was presented to someone from Ohio.

“She’s my most famous cooker,” Sydney said, swooning after she was recognized by the celebrity chef.

For the first time ever in the Lake George benefit show, Rachael invited a child onstage to help prepare a recipe.

Natalie DiStefano, 10, of Ballston Spa was the lucky child chosen to be Rachael Ray’s sidekick.

Following Ray’s instruction, the girl pounded a chicken breast with a mallet with abandon, and sprinkled it with seasonings to make a version of Chicken Cordon Bleu.

Afterward, the girl was nearly speechless about her work beside Ray in front of the crowd.

“It was really amazing,” Natalie said.

“She’s like — my idol.”

The show ended with a lot of check-passing as well as the megastar receiving bouquets and gifts.

While Ray had raised about $20,000 for the school, Lake George Alumni Association President Tom Roach presented her with a donation to Ray’s renowned charity, Yum-O, which has been recently fighting childhood obesity and advocating good nutrition.

Roach also presented Rachael Ray with a $200 gift certificate to Oscar ’s Smoke House of Warrensburg — and Ray squealed with delight.

“There’s nothing I don’t like at Oscar ’s,” she said. “I’m going there tomorrow.”

Ray said that on her television shows and at home, she cooks with Oscar ’s bacon exclusively. Other favorites of hers, are Oscar ’s Triple-X super-sharp Cheddar cheese, their smoked boneless leg of lamb, smoked chicken breast and every variety of jerky that the renowned enterprise produces.

Oscar ’s wasn’t the only local business Rachael Ray praised. She also lauded the Lake George Baking Company, that not only bakes rolls for the annual show, but this year created a huge 10-tiered-cake thanking her for her decade of hosting the local benefit.

The cake’s giant inscription read, “Ten Years Our Star, Rachael Ray.” The creation was presented to the celebrity by bakery owners Carl “Buster” Alberino and his wife Debbie — and Rachael Ray responded with grins and hugs for them.

Watching Ray react with joy, the international star ’s mother Elsa Ray commented on how Rachael as a teen worked long hours on weekends and in summers alongside family

Song & Story Swap scheduled LAKE LUZERNE — Anyone with a song to sing or a story to tell is invited to join a Song & Story Swap event from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday, April 21 at the Adirondack Folk School.

The free event is to be hosted by Brant Lake native Colleen Cleveland. Participants will be sharing songs, stories and poems, whether they have experience at it or not. All are invited to the informal event, whether it is to participate or just listen.

Traditional Arts in Upstate New York or TAUNY, a nonprofit organization, is dedicated to showcasing the folk culture including those reminiscent of traditional gatherings in parlors, kitchens, grange halls, and hotel and tavern barrooms — which once occurred routinely in the Adirondacks.

Material shared by those in attendance may be added to TAUNY’s archival collection, and posted on TAUNY’s web-

every year at Hicks Apple Orchard and their corn maze, as well as the Adirondack Balloon Festival. My husband John and I make books of our travels, and it’s funny, no one in my family likes having their picture taken, most especially me. because it’s part of my job. But when we travel, I think we’re the only people in the world that have travel books with several hundred pictures each and with no pictures of any one we know.”

AJ: You’ve definitely had the opportunity to go to a lot of places and do a lot of things — you’ve seen so much....

RR: “I’m very lucky to see so much of the world, but this is where I live!”

AJ: What amazes you most when you come back with fresh eyes?

RR: “How beautiful where I grew up is — and my appreciation for it just grows the older I get. I love Italy very much —I was married there, my family is from there, my husband’s family is from there and it’s the place I most love to travel — but the only place I really feel at home is the Adirondacks. “ AJ: When you come back, what stands out the most?

RR: “I love coming over the Northway over the big hill and see the Great Escape — it was Storytown when I was a little kid — then I see the mountains and I know I’m home and I always get a little chill.

“In the fall I love coming over that crest and seeing the colorful foliage. And in the summer I like to see the bright green of the mountains.

“The air smells different here. Just everything is different here. I love how dark the sky still gets, not as black as I remember as a kid, and the winters aren’t as cold now — this last winter was heartbreaking, absolutely crushing. I’d gotten new toboggans for Christmas and we dug a new toboggan run about a half-mile long in the forest and we never got to use it.

We never got enough snow from Christmas until now.

“That breaks my heart —

Offering advice to Lake George students, she told them to delve into their career with passion.

“Work harder than the next person, and don’t complain about it,” she said. “Then you’ll always get noticed, no matter what

Raise your own chickens!

WARRENSBURG — Cornell Cooperative Extension of Warren County will be holding a program on “Raising Backyard Chickens” on Monday, April 30 from 6:30 p.m – 8:30. p.m at the Extension headquarters at 377 Schroon River Road in Warrensburg.

Topics will include review of breeds, feeding, shelter, gen-

when I was a kid we used to have the big winter carnival out on the lake and when my mom was a kid they used to have horse races out on the ice and this year, wow, I never went ice skating or anything — it was crazy.”

AJ: What kind of business ventures would you like to pursue in the future?

RR: “You know I’ve wanted for years to open my own slider bar/burger bar in New York City but I haven’t gotten around to it yet. I have a very full, happy life and what ever time off I get, I am really happy being home (in Luzerne) in the woods and cooking. My husband has a little studio, more like a big music studio over the garage now and we put up sound-proofing so he can just stay in there all day and bang the drums and play the guitar — and I can just stay alone in the kitchen. (Her husband, John Cusimano, is lead singer of the rock group The Cringe.) Often, we invite our friends up to eat all the food I cook. I’m happy to kind of do nothing.”

AJ: Any advice for Lake George area students about achieving their dreams?

RR: “Work harder than the next person, don’t complain about it, and you'll always get noticed, no matter what job you’re doing, and you'll find an opportunity occurs that you didn't see coming.

“And have a sense of humor — don't take yourself or your studies or your food too seriously. In life you have to remember it's going to be a mixture of hard work and a certain amount of luck. At the end of the day, the only real choice you have is to laugh or cry.

“You'll get sick, you'll get well, you'll get happy, you'll get sad, you'll maybe get rich, maybe not, but you'll always have a choice: are you going to laugh about it or cry about it? My mom told me that was my grandfather ’s advice, and I'll tell it to anybody who will listen — it’s the only true thing I know.”

Workmen install a chariot coach on a carousel being erected this week near the southeast corner of Beach Road and Canada St. in downtown Lake George Village. The carousel, along with its accompanying bumpercar attraction and bumper boat ride, is expected to be well-received by families seeking new activities.

a broader appeal than miniature-golf, Craige-Sherman said. “Plus it adds an amazing visual element.”

She said the carousel would undoubtedly become a local landmark — in a prime downtown location.

“As a gateway block into the village center, it’s important to have something that’s so eye-catching and appealing,” she said. “And at night with all its carousel lights, it will be spectacu-

traction recently from the mall’s owners and brought it to Lake George.

“It’s a nice family-oriented attraction that has a broad appeal,” Zeppieri said April 16 as workmen assembled the ride.

Six days earlier, four Amish workmen built a large gazebo on site in a mere 18 hours as an enclosure to the carousel, Zeppieri added.

Overlooking the trio of amusement rides will be a patio, primarily for a new restaurant Zeppieri and Cervini are now developing in what was once was a Kentucky Fried Chicken and was last a gift shop.

The eatery, named “At the Hop,” will be a 1950s-style diner, complete with retrojukeboxes at the tables. The partners’ mini-mall also includes an revamped amusement center with Skee-Ball and an imported interactive shooting gallery that returns blasts of water towards patrons successfully hitting targets.

The mini-mall includes a pizzeria titled “Slice” and a yet-to-be-named sandwich

shop that is to occupy the storefront that hosted a Quizno’s sub shop.

Billed as the nation’s oldest golf course, the forerunner to Putts N Prizes was constructed in 1929. But Zeppieri said it hadn’t been much of an attraction in recent years.

“The golf course had outlived its usefulness,” he said. Craige-Sherman noted that it was hard for the tiny course to compete with the four or so other expansive courses nearby.

Tom and Kim Zeppieri, who hail from Rensselaer, had bought the course and the mini-mall in 1994, giving it a variety of upgrades, then selling it in 2007 to Holly Raj for $2 million. The Zeppieris own and operate an amuse-

The Holly Raj group had sought last year to convert a portion of the mini-mall into a multi-level tavern, but ran into regulatory issues and financial troubles. The Zeppieris, who were holding the mortgage in this sale, re-acquired the property in September 2011.

Lake George Village Deputy Mayor John Earl said this week that he and other village board members had seen the carousel and appreciated the improvements on the high-profile corner.

“The carousel looks really good, and it should be quite an attraction to families,” he said.

Zeppieri said his intent was to transform the corner into a an array of attractions with broad appeal.

“We’ll be offering fun family activities,” he said of the carousel and bumper rides.

The Venetian carousel, built by Bertazzon of Italy, was formerly in use inside the Macon Mall in Macon, Ga. During a period of the mall’s decline during the national recession, the carousel was put into storage.

This is a light, jewel red colored wine with gads of ripe red fruit on the nose The aromas are primarily cherry and red plum, but there’s also a Diet Coke characteristic to the nose. The palate is fresh and fruity with ripe cherry and pomegranate flavors. The tannins are light and the finish, short. If fresh and fruity is what you like, then you may enjoy this Pinot Noir.

This wine from southern Burgundy is crisp with green apple and tart lemon notes, not at all oaky, and finishes with hints of mango and banana. Moderate body, enough to give it a little bit of heft.

Seniors key to LG baseball success Lady Warriors looking to top league

By Andy Flynn

Warriors Baseball ROSTER

andy@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Erik Hoover returns for his fourth season as head coach of the Lake George varsity baseball team and will rely on his upperclassmen to provide strength, speed and leadership this year.

The Warriors lost four starters due to graduation, including JD Jenkins, Jack Clark, Greg Stoya and Alex Liucci. Their record in 2011 was 12-2 in Adirondack League play and 15-3 overall.

“We have motivated players this spring competing for positions,” Hoover said. “We have a lot of speed this year, and we’re going to rely on the veteran leadership of Connor McCoy, Peter Fisher, Lee McCabe and Willy Blunt to help guide the new additions to our team.”

There are several players to watch, one pitcher and two sluggers. McCoy, a junior, was on the first team all conference in 2011.

A varsity player since ninth grade, he led the team in wins for the past two years and boasts a 10-1 overall record with a sub-2 ERA. And seniors Lee McCabe and Peter Fisher both batted with a .408 average in 2011.

Junior Willy Blunt is also one to watch. A varsity starter since ninth grade, he anchors the outfield and batted with a .380 average last season.

The 2012 starting lineup is: Willy Blunt, Connor McCoy, Peter Fisher, Lee McCabe, Charles Barber, Marty Zivica, Joey Farrel, Craig Keenan and Ryan Matthews.

“Sean was the anchor of our defense playing a superb center field for us last year and will also be counted on to take his talents to the mound this season,” Andrejkovics said. “Sean also led the team in a number of offensive categories leading the team in batting average, hits and runs batted in.”

Senior Mitchell Jordan will also be back, providing much-needed defensive.

“Mitchell is very athletic and will take over at shortstop, be counted on to provide a dominate presence on the mound as well as in the middle of our lineup,” Andrejkovics said.

Bump returns to coach Lady Burghers softball team

By Andy Flynn

Burghers Softball ROSTER

andy@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The Lady Burghers head into the 2012 softball season in good hands, as longtime head coach Mary Ann Bump returns after being sidelined last year because of an injury.

While Bump was recovering, veteran softball coach Brent Bertrand took over, but they won only a couple of games in 2011.

Then tragedy struck on Jan. 10 this year when Bertrand died of natural causes at the age of 54. As a technology teacher, he had spent 28 years with the school. From 1986 to 2003, he served as junior varsity softball coach, and he also served three years as varsity softball coach, most recently in 2011.

Now Bump is back, and she’s getting to know her team and the league all over again.

WARRENSBURG — With six seniors, the well-seasoned Warrensburg varsity baseball team will try to recapture some of the magic they made last spring.

The Burghers went 10-7 overall and 7-4 in Adirondack League play in 2011. It was a short season because of the weather.

This year, head coach Rex Reynolds returns for his 10th year to build upon some of last year ’s successes.

They put up 65 runs in their first four wins, which helped them find some confidence at the plate.

It was that confidence that boosted them to a big comebehind-win against a strong Whitehall team at home on the Library Avenue field.

“There is no doubt that our varsity teams take inspiration playing on that diamond from the many great teams that called that field home in years past,” Reynolds said. “That stuff you can't buy in a store.”

“We will see who steps in to fill the shoes of the backbones of the 2011 team, Nick Monroe, John Joseph and Aaron Seeley,” Reynolds said. “We will seek to competitive every night we take the field. We are not where we need to be yet but I am confident we will gel and come together.”

The newcomers to watch are junior Korynn Raymond (SS/P), sophomore Makayla Baker (C) and freshman Karlee Duell (utility).

The starting lineup will be: Korynn Raymond , Merissa Hayse, Mika Morehouse, Kerrigan Roth, Karlee Duell, Chiaraa Russo, Braydin Smith, Katie Riddle and Makayla Baker.

“The Lady Burghers have great intentions of turning last season’s record around,” Bump said. “We have a lot of youth but a lot of depth. “We are anchored by one senior and one freshman with 14 juniors and sophomores in between.”

North Wa r ren NW baseball team looks to youth Lady Cougars rebuilding in 2012

By Andy Flynn

By Andy Flynn

Cougars Baseball ROSTER

andy@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — With the loss of seven seniors, the North Warren varsity baseball team is looking to its young players to win games while they rebuild for the future, according to head coach Jason Humiston.

“We look to (senior) Kristian Seeley, who hit .375 last year, and (junior) Ethan Schenke, who hit .345 last season, for leadership,” Humiston said. “A lot rests on these two for our pitching duties as well as offense.”

In 2011, the Cougars went 3-9 overall and 3-7 in Adirondack League play. This year, the coach says, their success will only come from a strong foundation, consistent play and a positive attitude.

“This year ’s team is young and many players will be asked to play multiple positions,” Humiston said. “The point of emphasis is just do the little things consistently.

Proper backups, playing with confidence is something we lack right now.”

Humiston said he’s looking forward to the season. Having played some games already, he has a feel for what the team needs.

CHESTERTOWN — Jeremy Whipple will spend his first year as head coach of the Lady Cougar varsity softball team rebuilding with a set of young and inexperienced Kat Strauss players.

“We have only four players left over from last year ’s team, but the younger players are stepping up and learning quickly,” Whipple said. “I am proud of the hard work that the team has been putting in, and look forward to having a good year.”

In 2011, the team won one game in 10 tries.

This year, they can only improve. And they’ll need the help of their veteran ballplayers.

“Our key players are going to be our four seniors: Kat Strauss in the infield, Charissa
