Vets support limiting funeral protests

CHESTERTOWN — The Friends of the Chester Library will be holding its fourth annual Wine Tasting & Silent Auction May 15, and reservations to attend the event are due by May 3. To be held at the Friends Lake Inn from 1 to 4 p.m., the event features Friends Lake Inn’s awardwinning wine list and hospitality. Also, the event is considered a premier social event in the North Country.

Friends of the Library officials expressed appreciation this week for the generosity of John and Trudy Phillips of Friends Lake Inn plus the many local merchants and artisans who donate items for the auction. Through these donations, the Friends group has been able to provide equipment and materials for the library.

From the proceeds of this fundraiser, the group has provided money for new computers, book shelves, window shades, and many new books and videos for the library.

Reservations for the event are $25 and can be made at the library or by mailing a check payable to the Friends of the Chester Library, P.O. Box 451, Chestertown, NY 12817.

For details, call the library at 494-5384.

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — As Warren County leaders convened April 15 to consider local laws including a measure to protect the sanctity of funerals, six Chestertown-area veterans talked in the county Supervisors’ chambers.

Korean War Veteran Curt Castner gazed at the American flag in the corner of the room.

“I believe in American freedoms and rights of free speech,” he said.

“But if my son was killed in a conflict, I wouldn’t want protesters outside his funeral shouting they were glad he was dead.”

In the wake of last month’s U.S. Supreme Court decision upholding the right of a Kansas church to hold disruptive anti-gay protests outside military funerals, the Warren County Board of Supervisors is proposing a law that prohibits protests within 750 feet of funerals, funeral processions and burial ceremonies one hour before, during and one hour after they occur.

Chestertown veterans — including (from right) Harry Smith, Lewis Wentworth, Louis Russo, Ron Robert, Curt Castner and Henry Frasier — listen to discussion of pending issues at a Warren County board meeting April 15 as they wait for county supervisors to pass a resolution restricting protests at funerals. The measure is subject to a public hearing set for May 20.

BOLTON LANDING — Eighteen months ago, Brittany LaFoy was near death, trapped for nearly two days in a wrecked car that had careened off the road into the woods in Warrensburg.

Sunday, May 1, a fundraiser is being held for LaFoy, 25, to help pay for her ongoing rehabilitation costs and medical expenses. The benefit event will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. at Pumpernickel’s Restaurant in Bolton.

Last week, Brittany and her mother Tammy LaFoy-Gray talked of Brittany’s ongoing recovery from the near-death experience, and how the horrific event unfolded.

Apparently, a determined, thorough search effort by her father, mother, and thenboyfriend Mitchell Knapp saved Brittany from dying alone in the crushed vehicle, which had veered off the roadway late at

night out of sight off an embankment of Rte. 9 north of Warrensburg.

Brittany went out after work on the night of Friday Oct. 2, 2009, and her baby son was at Knapp’s house. He called Brittany’s parents early Saturday morning, saying he knew something was wrong because she wouldn’t leave her son for so long without checking in.

It wouldn’t be like Brittany, Tammy said, to just spend the night at a friend’s house, without telling everyone.

Police were called that morning, and they began a search, of area roadways — as well as homes for runaways — and their effort turned up no leads, Tammy continued.

Tammy came home from a wedding Saturday at 5:30 p.m., and she and her husband Louis Gray started a two-day effort which started out with calling Brittany’s friends, area taverns, and traveling roads throughout the area to see where she might be.

Just one year ago, on April 28, community pillar George R. Nemec passed away. George was known for his ardent support of so many community efforts, and his heartfelt generosity, as well as his good humor.

So many people in town think of the many hours he dedicated to Warrensburg — as a fireman, through the Chamber of Commerce, or helping out families in need.

Also, George helped build a business that is a landmark in town. Our sympathies go out to his wife, Nancy Nemec, son Chris, and other family members.

Locals reminisce at car-racing exhibit

By Thom Randall

WARRENSBURG — At the Warrensburg Museum of Local History Sunday, Jean Wells scrutinized one of the many driver rosters and news articles depicting stock car racing held locally in the 1950s and 1960s.

With a smile prompted by fond memories, she read off a half-dozen race drivers’ names, recalling the bygone action at the Ashland Park racetrack, now a residential subdivision behind Ashe’s Hotel.

“There’s one of Dad’s cars,” she said, recalling that her father Gilbert Wells had frequently raced there. A race bill exhibited on the Museum wall bore testimony that he’d won third place in a particular showdown.

“It was a terrible track — full of holes, and racing would raise great clouds of dust,” Wells added.

Wells and Lois Secor shared memories of how stock-car race competition at Ashland Park at times became aggressive and downright fierce.

Wells recalled how one driver from Vermont routinely ran other drivers off the track, causing collisions and rollover crashes. One time, she and her friends were standing atop a scorer ’s table for a good view, and they leapt back 10 feet or more to avoid a careening sedan which crushed the table, she said.

Nearby, Brian and Bruce Keith, looking at photos of old racing sedans parked at the Messenger House, recalled how they had lived across Hudson Street and would get their thrills as children by crawling into the cars at night and pretend they were race car drivers.

“We used to love to crawl in through the windows and play in those stock cars,” Bruce said.

Dozens of people visited the museum Sunday to see the exhibit on racing at Ashland Park, and they were videotaped as they shared their memories, so the recollections could be preserved for posterity.

Museum Director Steve Parisi said

he was pleased with turnout, estimating that about 50 attended the exhibit.

“I’m thrilled with the response of townspeople,” he said. “This exhibit brought us to the attention of a lot of people who wouldn’t otherwise be museum-goers.

The exhibit of stock car racing was one of several specialized displays or exhibitions the museum has held since it reopened in 2009, including local sports activities, and the role of factory workers — primary garment mill and sawmill employees — in shaping the local economy.

The latter ongoing exhibit brought dozens of former factory workers to-

gether last year for a reception at the Museum, when they shared memories of the factory life, not only with each other, but with younger generations that know Warrensburg only in its post-Industrial age status.

The museum, which re-opened in 2009 with new carefully curated and professionally presented displays, is attracting more people than ever.

Parisi noted the boosted attendance in a recent report to the Warrensburg Town Board.

“Attendance is up — more people are finding us,” he said. “They may have known we were here, but it took them a while to come in.”

Adirondack Journal Editorial

The train is back — get on board

T

hey’ve finally done it. After years of back and forth among Warren County supervisors regarding the passenger train that runs from North Creek to Corinth — during which time they dumped hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars into a line often characterized as “the train to nowhere” — they have committed to giving it a wholehearted effort this time.

Six months of contractual negotiations between the Warren County Board of Supervisors and potential operators has led to an agreement with Iowa Pacific Holdings LLC. The company hopes to have freight trains running by July.

Supervisors should be commended for this agreement, which promises to be a financial boon to the county. It’s estimated the railroad will produce $82,000 in revenue through both tourist and freight traffic the first year of operation, compared to the $19,500 generated in 2010.

For the first time in a long time, Warren County should see a substantive return on the $8 million in grant money used to refurbish the dilapidated railroad infrastructure, in hopes the region would reap the rewards through trains carrying skiers and tourists to the region.

In reality, that failed to happen, leaving local taxpayers crying foul as county leaders continued to throw good money after bad. Complicating matters was the agreement that grant monies would have to be paid back if the railroad weren’t used for its original intent.

Enter Iowa Pacific.

The company handed Warren County a proposed contract — inches thick — in December of 2010, saying they saw an opportunity worth investing in. They said they weren’t afraid to make it happen in upstate New York or inside the Blue Line.

This air of confidence from a company with a long history of successfully operating railroads — it already owns six — is a welcome breath of fresh air.

Perhaps supervisors should have done it right the first time with this type of agreement instead of a line dedicated to a tourist train — which Ed Ellis, the president of Iowa Pacific Holdings LLC called a losing venture — but it now appears there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel.

And it could not have come at a better time.

The withering economic infrastructure of the Adirondack Park has been making local politicians, business owners and residents sweat for years.

The reintroduction of freight on the lines of the Saratoga and North Creek Railroad will do much more than make the rails profitable, according to Ellis. Under the new contract, tourists trains will continue on the lines and will be joined by trains hauling freight — potentially the best of both worlds. The presence of both will also open up opportunities for bigger and better recreational opportunities including ski trains and commuter services — to name a few.

Lastly, as the tracks continue from Corinth to the Amtrak lines of Saratoga and beyond, the possibility becomes very real of boarding a train in North Creek and rolling into Penn Station in New York City several hours later.

That is just the sort of economic boost to this region that people like former Johnsburg Supervisor Bill Thomas envisioned when he championed for a county takeover of the railroad lines a decade ago.

It now appears the train to nowhere is indeed going somewhere.

A brief history of Iowa Pacific Formed in March of 2001 to acquire railroads and create rail-related businesses, Iowa Pacific focuses on small connectorrails with annual revenues of $10 million and less. It has successfully acquired and operated six railroads and adds Saratoga and North Creek Railway as its first in New York state. Iowa Pacific boasts hundreds of years of rail-industry experience and continuously seeks opportunities to increase rail freight business on railroads across the country through growth of existing traffic, adding lines, relocation and expansion.

mountain, the grand structure was torn down in the early 1960s, and the stone from its walls was used to build the town garage.

•100 Years Ago – April-May 1911• A slow, painful spring The Bakers Mills village school and the Edwards Hill district school are closed because of the measles, which have a firm grasp on the area and are the cause of many deaths.

Farmers are planting early potatoes. They are liable to get chilled if this cold weather continues. The night of May 1, 1911 had severe lightning, thunder and wind storm.

On Easter Sunday, the weather was fair, but a cold blast from the north made the occasion quite uncomfortable for those who ventured out without their winter overgarments.

Elmer Streeter of South Horicon has made 650 pounds of maple sugar during a season that started out slowly but to everyone’s amazement, the sap just keeps on running.

Veteran suffers violent death Henry Hill, an aged veteran of the Civil War, was found dead on the morning of April 29, 1911 on the ground at the north end of the Bolton House, on Lower Main St. in Warrensburgh. His body was terribly crushed and shattered, his right leg being fractured in two places and the right arm and lower jaw broken. He had fallen from the piazza roof upon which opened the window of the room he had occupied in the third story of the hotel. He had evidently been dead for several hours.

Hill lived with his family on Harrington Hill in the southern part of town. He was in the habit of coming to the village occasionally and sometimes would stay for two or three days at the Bolton House. He was always assigned to a room in the northwest corner and on the third floor of the building.

Frequently, it is said, he would roam about

the house at night only partially awake. It is believed that on this occasion he crept through one of the front windows opening from his room onto the piazza roof and lost his balance and pitched headforemost to the ground about 20 feet below. No outcry was heard by anyone in the building. At 5:30 in the morning the house was opened and the hosteler, Billings Monroe discovered the body and rushed to inform Harry Bolton, the hotel’s owner. Dr. Griffin, after he had examined the body, stated that the man had been dead for several hours.

Mr. Hill would have been 73 years old in August and had been a resident of Warrensburgh since boyhood. He was a carpenter by trade and was known for his skill and honesty. He leaves a widow, three sons, Walter, Bertram and Jay and a daughter, Mrs. Ambrose Griffin, all of Warrensburgh. His funeral was held at the Baptist Church.

Bad luck strikes butcher Hubert Carroll conducts a meat market in Indian Lake and while closing the door one night recently he stumbled and pushed his left hand through the glass portion of the door. The arteries of his wrist were severed and but for the timely aid of Drs. Bonesteel and Stevenson, the injured man would have bled to death. He is under treatment at the Albany Hospital.

Local herb healer dies George Henry Newton, 72, formerly of Horicon, died April 17, 1911 at the home of his son, Albert James Newton in Schenectady. He was born May 10, 1839 in Fort Ann but he spent most of his life in our area. He was twice married.

The deceased was a veteran of the Civil War having served in Colonel Chrysler ’s regiment. He was a cousin of the late Dr. Ira Frazier, a herbalist of Horicon and Lansing-

burgh, who was famous for his extensive knowledge of roots and herbs. This talent also seemed natural to Mr. Newton and people often came many miles to receive his aid and advise in cases of illness. He was noted for his generosity and no matter who sought his aid at any time of the day or night, he was there to offer his liberal response.

Griffing homestead spruces up The Griffing homestead is undergoing extensive improvements preparatory to its occupancy this summer by the owners, Grace C. Merrill and her father, Dr. Cyrus S. Merrill of Albany. Hardwood floors are being laid by James Hall in all rooms in the first story and the building is being painted, inside and out by John J. Archer and Herbert March.

Dr. and Miss Merrill are expected to arrive the latter part of May and they will remain until fall. (Note: This house was built by Grace’s maternal grandfather, businessman Stephen Griffing II, who starting in 1857 was three times supervisor of Warrensburgh. Today it houses Grace’s Restaurant.)

Warrensburgh news A new trolley car built for the Hudson Valley railroad arrived in Warrensburgh on April 30, 1911 for the first time. The coach is somewhat larger than the old cars and it holds far more people. The fittings are very handsome.

A bright, bouncing baby boy, named Charles Frederick Burhans, Jr., arrived in Warrensburgh to join the family of Charles and Eva Burhans. He has a dainty little sister, Helen Burhans who is four years old.

(Note: the Burhans mansion stood on “Burhans Hill,” now known as Pine Tree Lane, directly behind today’s Town Hall. It was indeed the showplace of the “Queen Village.” Made of stone from Hackinsack

Hydrant flushing The town of Bolton will be flushing hydrants from May 2 through May 6, during the hours of 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Some discoloration of water is likely to occur during this period, town officials said this week. Consumers are advised to check water conditions before doing laundry to avoid stains. It is recommended that residents flush their water heaters to prevent future problems.

Fire leaves family homeless Edward Dimmick’s farmhouse was burned April 30, 1911 with nearly all of its contents destroyed. The chimney burned out and set fire to the roof and the shingles were so dry it was impossible with the meager facilities at hand to stop the blaze. The family dinner was cooking on the new steel range that cost $68 and was destroyed together with all the maple sugar and syrup made on the farm this spring. There was $400 insurance on the building but the household goods destroyed were a total loss.

News around Thurman Spring housecleaning with all its many terrors is upon us once again.

Mrs. Corda Elwell and Mrs. Cora Kenyon of Athol recently walked seven miles to the home of Mrs. Elwell’s father, in Dartmouth.

Mr. Combs brought them back the next day.

While J.W. Cameron and a young man were in the woods cutting wood, Mr. Cameron went to cut off a limb from the tree they were sawing up and received a severe bruise on one of his feet and he is now going around on crutches.

Elder Edwin H. Hovey of Maple Street, Athol, has sold his Guinea hens to Frank Cameron. John Kenyon is also adding these fowls to his stock of poultry. David Frost has had good success in hatching chickens this spring. “Old Speckle arose from off her nest and cackled with much vigor, as if to say, “That egg I laid, no hen can lay a bigger.”

Taking care of your deck The deck is the heart of a back yard. It’s where the family gathers for dinner, the perfect spot for grilling, a great place to hang out with friends and the ideal location for relaxing after a long day. Whether you’re thinking of building a new deck or your old one needs resurfacing, be sure and choose the right decking product: choose real wood.

Building a Deck. Thinking of building a brand new deck? What a great way to enhance your back yard!

According to the 2010-2011 Cost vs. Value Report from Remodeling magazine, homeowners can expect to recoup 72.8 percent (on average) of the cost of building a wood deck vs. only 66.2 percent if building with composites. Deck substructures are built using pressure-treated wood anyway; if it’s strong and durable enough to hold up your deck, it’s strong enough to actually be your decking surface.

Pressure-treated wood is a builder favorite and has been the number one decking material for decades. It’s natural, real — and it looks fantastic.

Resurfacing a deck. If you already have a wood deck but it’s more than 20 years old, consider a resurfacing project. This is where the decking surface is replaced, while the substructure remains. (It’s always a good idea to have a decking professional check the entire deck for soundness.) Resurfacing is easy, and it’s a great way to refresh your outdoor living areas without blowing your budget.

Maintaining a deck. Every building material designed for outdoor use requires maintenance; luckily, real wood decks are very easy to maintain. Once a year, check your deck to see if it needs cleaning or perhaps another coat of sealant. Perform the cup of water test: if a cup of water poured on the deck boards immediately soaks into the wood, it's time to apply water repellant.

Community Briefs NW school board to discuss raises CHESTERTOWN — A special meeting of the North Warren Central Board of Education has been called for 6 p.m. Monday, May 2 to reconsider aspects of the school district’s 2011-12 budget.

Under the spending plan, the local tax levy would increase 2.8 percent from 201011, reaching $8.56 million. Total spending, however, is to decrease from $12.54 million to $12.36 million.

The school officials are slated to discuss whether to leave money in the budget ear-

marked for 3 percent salary increases for administrative staff.

At a recent special meeting, an initiative to grant the increases was defeated, but apparently the money to cover the raises was left in the budget.

NW Business Expo set for Horicon BRANT LAKE — The North Warren Chamber of Commerce will hold its firstever Business Expo at the Horicon Community Center on Wednesday, May 4 from 3 to 7 p.m. A wide variety of local businesses and

voluntary organizations will be represented, with their leaders meeting members of the Chester-Horicon community. The free event features food and door prizes for the public.

Also, the Adirondack Mountain Garden Club and Cornell Cooperative extension will be on hand offering gardening tips.

A special business-to-business session is planned between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m., and all organizations and enterprises are invited to participate. A panel discussion on how to use social media websites like Facebook and Twitter will be presented by Sara Mannix of Mannix Marketing of Glens Falls.

Discipline your children thoughtfully. Never discipline your child when you are upset. Give yourself time to calm down. Remember that discipline is a way to teach your child. Use privileges to encourage good behavior and time-outs to help your child regain control.

“Our doors are always open”

Examine your behavior. Abuse is not just physical.

Both words and actions can inflict deep, lasting wounds. Be a nurturing parent. Use your actions to show children and other adults that conflicts can be settled without hitting or yelling.

Teach children their rights. When children are taught they are special and have the right to be safe, they are less likely to think abuse is their fault, and more likely to report an offender.

Know what child abuse is. Physical and sexual abuse clearly constitute maltreatment, but so does neglect, or the failure of parents or other caregivers to provide a child with needed food, clothing, and care. Children can also be emotionally abused when they are rejected, berated, or continuously isolated.

k c i r r e H ecca J.

Reb

Know the signs. Unexplained injuries aren’t the only signs of abuse. Depression, fear of a certain adult, difficulty trusting others or making friends, sudden changes in eating or sleeping patterns, inappropriate sexual behavior, poor hygiene, secrecy, and hostility are often signs of family problems and may indicate a child is being neglected or physically, sexually, or emotionally abused.

Report abuse. If you witness a child being harmed or see evidence of abuse, make a report to your state’s child protective services department or local police. When talking to a child about abuse, listen carefully, assure the child that he or she did the right thing by telling an adult, and affirm that he or she is not responsible for what happened.

The impact of child maltreatment can be profound.

Research shows that child maltreatment is associated with adverse health and mental health outcomes in chidren and families, and those negative affects can last a lifetime. In addition to the impact on the child, child abuse and neglect affect various systems - including physical and mental health, law enforcement, judicial and public social services, and nonprofit agencies as they respond to the incident and support the victim.

One analysis of the immediate and long-term economic impact of child abuse and neglect suggests that child maltreatment costs the nation as much as $258 million each day, or approximately $94 billion each year.

LaFoy from page 1 A friend reported that Brittany was supposed to go to the Black Bear Restaurant in Pottersville, and Tammy and Louis searched the roads that Brittany might have taken home. Their search continued through the night into Sunday.

Police came to their Diamond Point home mid-afternoon Sunday, and reported that Brittany’s cell phone sent active signals to a nearby tower that indicated she was within a five-mile radius of Warrensburg, LaFoyGrey recalled.

The couple intensified their search efforts along Rte. 9, Hudson Ave. Extension and Pack Forest roads.

On the highways, Louis Gray drove down the wrong side of the road so he could lean out the window with a flashlight and get a closer look at where LaFoy might be, Tammy recalled.

In the darkness Saturday night, Gray’s risky approach yielded results. By the light of his flashlight, Gray saw a glimmer off some reflective material off an embankment, and stopped their car.

“Oh my God, it’s Brittany,” he cried out, Terry recalled. She said he then ran to Brittany’s crushed car as she exited their car, crying, to summon help from a

passerby on Rte. 9. Terry said it appeared Brittany’s car had clipped a guardrail, then hit a telephone pole, and plunged down the embankment.

Gray reached through a window, and rubbed Brittany’s forehead, and she uttered in a near-whisper that she was cold, Tammy said.

Brittany was barely conscious, laying across the car ’s console, bleeding and badly injured, she recalled.

In response, Gray took off his sweatshirt and wrapped her in it while Terry waved a car down, and police were called.

State Police, Warren County Sheriff ’s officers and Warrensburg firefighters responded within a few minutes, Terry recalled.

Members of the Warrensburg Fire Co. used hydraulic tools to peel back the roof, because the doors were jammed — while police called a medical helicopter.

Soon after, Brittany was flown to Albany Medical Center, and she was determined to be in critical condition.

She was treated in Albany Medical Center for a month, and was released for a lengthy stay in Sunnyview Rehabilitation Hospital in Schenectady to regain mobility.

In the crash, Brittany LaFoy suffered three strokes that left her with paralysis

on her left side, a shattered jaw, and traumatic brain injury.

Tammy said Knapp was extremely attentive and helpful through the difficult process of her initial rebound from a state near death. He attended to all her needs, and he and Louis Gray routinely carried her everywhere from one place to another because she could hardly move.

“Doctors didn’t expect her to live,” Tammy LaFoyGray said. “Mitchell helped her through it all, day and night.”

Also providing vital help were Mitchell’s mother Wendy and sister Gail, Tammy said.

Month by month, Brittany regained mobility through extensive physical and occupational therapy, much of it administered at home by her parents, Brittany said.

“My Dad is a beast — he really pushes me on the exercises,” she said.

Recently, Brittany has been walking, and regaining some of the activities she enjoyed, including spending time with her three-year-old son Anthony.

Her days are now spent in rehabilitation exercises and doctors appointments, along with chatting on Facebook.

“Yes, I’m alive, but I have a lot to deal with,” she said,

noting that she has almost no use of her left hand, which is dominant.

Brittany said she’s found inspiration from the recovery of fellow Warrensburg High School alumnus Mason Hamilton, also of Diamond Point, who has been recovering from a snowmobile crash early last year.

Also providing inspiration was the experience of Scott Remington of Brant Lake, who was severely injured a decade ago in a logging accident, and has since raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for spinal cord research.

“It’s amazing what they’ve been through,” Brittany said.

Doctors have said Brittany is now ready to drive a car, but it needs to be equipped with expensive controls, for which some proceeds from the fundraiser at Pumpernickel’s will go towards.

The restaurant is located at 4571 Lake Shore Drive, Bolton Landing. The event includes a buffet dinner for $6, music by Mike LaPoint, plus a variety of raffles including gift baskets filled with donated goods and gift certificates from area businesses. Those unable to attend may call Cindy Jennings of Chestertown at 7449083 or Jodi Connally of Bolton Landing at 744-3901.

Methodists to hold supper NORTH CREEK — Again this year, the North Creek United Methodist Church will hold a roast pork dinner on the Saturday night of White Water Weekend — May 7. The menu will consist of roast pork, mashed potatoes, gravy, seasonal vegetables, homemade rolls and pies, coffee, tea or milk. Dinner will be served from 5 to 7 p.m. with takeouts available between 4 and 5. The cost is $9 for adults and $5 for children under 10.

Stamp club to meet GLENS FALLS — The regular monthly meeting of the Adirondack Stamp Club will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 11 in the Holden Room of Crandall Library, Glen St. The program is “Bicycles on Stamps” by collector Tom Noonan. The program is free. For details, call 745-1303.

Nursery school LAKE GEORGE — Caldwell Presbyterian Nursery School located at 71 Montcalm St. in Lake George will be hosting an open house and registration event Monday, May 2 from noon to 1 p.m. for prospective students Caldwell Presbyterian Nursery School offers activities designed to encourage the student’s independence and positive self-esteem.

Two-, three-, and five-day programs are available for 3-, 4-, and 5-year olds. For details, call the school at 668-4236 or the Caldwell Presbyterian Church office at 668-2613.

Ladies May Tea set for Wevertown JOHNSBURG — Annual Women’s May Tea, 1-3 p.m. at Wevertown Community Center, intersection of Routes 8/28; sponsored by United Methodist Church of Riparius, Wevertown and Johnsburg. Savories, sweets and tea, “Art of Aprons” on display, music by Nashville recording artists Patricia Reynolds and Jim Dunn, $5 per person, formal wear invited but not required — all welcome.

Youth to compete in pitch, hit & run event GLENS FALLS — The Glens Falls Golden Eagles Baseball Team is hosting a Pitch, Hit & Run competition May 7 at East Field on Dix Avenue. The event is for area youth ages ages 7 through 14.

Registration is to begin at 9 a.m. with competition to follow. This free program, sponsored by Major League Baseball, is designed to provide youth with an opportunity to compete in an event that recognizes individual achievement in basic baseball and softball skills.

Competitors are divided into four age divisions, and have the chance to advance through regional, state and national competition, including events at Major League ballparks and the National Finals at the 2011 Major League AllStar game.

Participants must bring a copy of their birth certificate and fill out a registration and waiver form. For details, contact Darin Williams at 223-0820 or via email at: dwilliams@glensfallsgoldeneagles.com.

Among those walking the stations of the cross from one site to another in Lake George in observance of Good Friday were Dina Viola of Lake George, her two nieces from downstate, and Bill Wattendorf of Lake George. Area pastors and parishioners alike said this year’s walk drew more than in recent years, reflecting a strong yearning for the spiritual as well as a vibrant ecumenical spirit prevailing in Lake George.

Veterans from page 1 The board of supervisors voted in favor of the local law, setting a public hearing at 10 a.m. May 20 on the measure.

This county law is more restrictive than a proposed federal Sanctity of Eternal Rest for Veterans Act that would set a minimum distance for protests at 300 feet for funerals and 500 feet for funeral processions — a bill introduced by U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand last week.

“This common sense legislation will ensure our heroes are buried with the honor and dignity they deserve,” Gillibrand said in a prepared statement released the day the bill was introduced in the U.S. Senate by a bipartisan group of lawmakers.

The laws were introduced in response to the protests held at military funerals across the nation by the Westboro Baptist Church, whose members say that the deaths of U.S. soldiers are a sign of divine punishment for our nation’s tolerance of homosexuality. The church has conducted more than 30,000

demonstrations in 450 cities or more over the last two decades, it is estimated.

Friday, Castner and five other members of Chestertown V.F.W. Post 5513 attended the Warren County Supervisors board meeting to show their support for protecting the sanctity of funerals, and the right of citizens to grieve in peace.

Ron Robert, Commander of the V.F.W. post, said he was troubled by the recent Supreme Court decision, which overturned a lower court decision granting a multi-million-dollar award to a man who sued the Westboro church after they held a protest at the funeral of his son, a U.S. Marine killed in Iraq.

“The Supreme Court decision was unfortunate, but you can’t argue with them upholding the principle of freedom of speech,” he said. “It’s good, however, that local towns and counties can pass restrictions like this on funeral protests.”

World War II veteran Lewis Wentworth agreed, noting that the Patriot Guard Riders, a motorcyclists’ group that routinely shields military funerals from such protests, had locally provid-

ed a valued and thoughtful service in protecting the rights of those grieving, while showing support for soldiers who sacrificed their lives for freedom.

At a 2009 funeral held in Chestertown for U.S. Army soldier Jeremiah Monroe, who was killed in Afghanistan, a regional chapter of the Patriot Guard Riders had more than a dozen members forming a ceremonial color guard at the funeral as well as escorting Monroe’s hearse.

In telling supervisors Friday of area veterans’ support for the law, Robert said the heavy turnout of Patriot Guard Riders and veterans in Chestertown had likely dissuaded the Westboro Baptists protesters from disrupting the solemn ceremonies for Monroe.

“People have the right to free speech, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, but how about the happiness of our grieving families of soldiers who’ve sacrificed their lives for these freedoms,” he said. “These restrictions you’re considering are definitely a step in the right direction.”

Minutes later, the unanimous vote of the county supervisors to enact the measure limiting funeral protests was met with robust applause.

News of the Week

Warren County approves rail contract Kyle Petty excited to Saratoga and North Creek Railway to be unveiled this summer

come to Lake Placid

By Lindsay Yandon

keith@denpubs.com

By Keith Lobdell

lindsay@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — The future of the Warren County rail line was solidified last Friday when the Warren County Board of Supervisors voted to approve Iowa Pacific Holdings, LLC as the new rail operator.

After months of deliberation and with the blessing of Warren County supervisors, Iowa Pacific anticipates that tourist and recreational trains will again be running on the tracks

by July.

Newly named Saratoga and North Creek Railway, the tracks will soon reopen to freight. Iowa Pacific president, Ed Ellis was unsure, as of last week, when exactly the freight would resume.

The approval was not without concern from serveral supervisors at Friday’s meeting. Some voiced worry about the possibility of derailments, resulting in freight being spilled into the Hudson River. As a result, no hazardous substances will be hauled on the line.

A public authority was also formed to manage and oversee the operations of both the new operator and the rail itself.

Once viewed as a tax burden in Warren County, the rail line has approached a new monetary deal under Iowa Pacific. They will be responsible for all track repairs up to $50,000, a required $5 million in insurance and the taxes, which amount to about $14,000 a year.

On the other hand, closing the line would be even more costly. Without a contracted operator, Warren County would

be responsible for the repayment of close to $8 million in originally received for the establishment of the line.

In the beginning of negotiations, Ellis was considerate of the county’s cost concerns.

"Our goal is for the railway not to cost Warren County a dime, but to be a benefit," he said.

Further, the deal guarantees the county will receive at least $82,000 in revenue during the first year of operation, compared to the $19,500 it received last year.

Overall, the contract was a great compromise, according to Johnsburg Supervisor Sterling Goodspeed.

“The tourist train has always been nice, but to see a proposal with that kind of depth is exciting,” he said.

Once a considerable concern among local residents and business owners, the absence or delay of an operator would cancel many traditional events. Many viewed the train as having a significant economic impact on communities like North Creek.

Iowa Pacific plans to continue train-related events like Race the Train and Thomas the Tank or events of the like as well introduce commuter and ski trains to the lines.

LAKE PLACID — When the 175 motorcycles roll out of Lake Placid on May 7, Kyle Petty will be leading the charge.

The veteran NASCAR racer and commentator will start the Kyle Petty Ride for Charity in Lake Placid, a ride in its 17th year that will be taking a new route for many of the riders.

“Some of these places we are going to the first time and so the riders are excited about seeing the new places,” Petty said about the annual fundraiser. “Its just fun.

A lot of times at a fuel Kyle Petty stop there will be race fans that come out and want to see the bikes and donate to the charity. It’s pretty cool.”

Petty said that the bikes that are part of the charity ride will start to unload in Lake Placid on Wednesday, May 5, with the riders to follow.

“People will start coming on Thursday and Friday, so there will be a lot of bikes in town,” Petty said. “The people that ride are the greatest people in the world. They give a week of their time and it is for a good cause.”

Bringing the ride to Lake Placid had a lot to do with his friends in racing, including Geoff Bodine, who had held recently an annual bobsledding event at Mount Van Hoevenberg.

“A group that goes on the ride with us every year, including Geoff, had been up there for that and they just kept raving about how nice Lake Placid was,” Petty said.

The Ride for Charity started as a unique way for NASCAR drivers and crew members to return to their race shops in North Carolina after an annual race in California.

“There was a group that came with the idea after one of the California races to ride from there back to North Carolina,” Petty said. “When we started, we just raised money for different children's charities and children's hospitals.”

Now, the majority of the funds go to the Victory Junction Camp, a camp founded by the Petty’s to honor the memory of Adam Petty, who was killed in a racing accident 11 years ago.

“Adam started racing when he was 12 or so messing with go-karts and started moving up just like the guys at the local tracks there,” Petty said. “We had talked about doing something after the accident. We had been to a camp on one of our charity rides. We had talked about how cool it would be to have something like that and the camp tied into everything else that we were doing.”

Petty said that the camp fit in with the causes that Adam was championing before his death.

“He was doing a lot with Sprint to connect children’s hospitals together, and it all tied into the stuff that we were doing and the stuff that he was doing,” Petty said.

Petty said that he was looking forward to the ride, and that people would know when the group of 175 bikers was leaving Lake Placid.

“By that time on Saturday, they might be happy to see us go,” he joked. “They will hear us, though.”

WCS softball team takes on legendary squad

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Monday afternoon, the Warrensburg High School Softball team tackled a storied squad that’s for years been atop the Adirondack League, and the young Burghers put up a good fight despite a 14-10 loss in this Adirondack League opener.

Monday’s game between Warrensburg and Hartford was a showdown between two Freshman pitchers on teams that sported radically new lineups due to graduation of their respective starters in 2010.

Hartford’s Christina Petteys, the younger sister of the champion Hartford pitcher Jackie Petteys who led her team to several Adirondack League championships, showed she had the right DNA to get the job done Monday.

She tallied 10 strikeouts in the game, an effort that would undoubtedly make her sister proud, Tanager fans said.

Her power didn’t faze the Burgher

batters, however, as they managed to connect with a number of her throws.

Midway in the game, Hartford Coach Brian Petteys, Christina’s father, took her out and put Charissa Lewis, another Freshman, to give her some competitive experience.

Her wild pitches, however, in the bottom of the 7th inning, allowed five runs for the Burghers, as they judged the throws carefully and earned walk after walk in the last inning.

Coach Petteys voiced high compliments for the youthful Burgher squad.

“Warrensburg did very well putting the bat on the ball, and they didn’t commit too many errors,” he said.

“They stayed right in there against a hard pitcher of ours.”

Particularly in the very beginning.

On the first pitch of the game, Burgher Marissa Hayes stuck her bat out and connected with a Petteys pitch for a triple, which she unsuccessfully attempted to stretch to a home run.

Hayes’ feat boosted the girls confidence, and they continued a good fight

against the championship team.

Christina Petteys won the game, however, with her speed and her savvy change-up — which caught the Burghers off guard.

On the mound for Warrensburg was Mika Morehouse, who showed considerable poise despite moving up from Modified ball this year.

Burgher Coach Brent Bertrand said he had faith in Mika’s future.

“She kept her composure, pitching the whole game,” he said. “She’s got talent, and she’s going to be amazing in the years to come.”

For Hartford, Brittany Brayman went 3 for 5 with a three-run home run to lead the Tanager offense.

Brayman also tallied a triple and a single, and she racked up eight RBIs. Petteys and Charissa Lewis hit a double and single each.

For Warrensburg, Katie Riddle hit two singles and Kerrigan Roth hit a single.

Hartford advances to 4-1 overall, and Warrensburg drops to 0-3.

from page 1 Iowa Pacific. They will be responsible for all track repairs up to $50,000, a required $5 million in insurance and the taxes, which amount to about $14,000 a year.

On the other hand, closing the line would be even more costly. Without a contracted operator, Warren County would be responsible for the repayment of close to $8 million in originally received for the establishment of the line.

In the beginning of negotiations, Ellis was considerate of the county’s cost concerns.

"Our goal is for the railway not to cost Warren County a dime, but to be a benefit," he said.

Further, the deal guarantees the county will receive at least $82,000 in

revenue during the first year of operation, compared to the $19,500 it received last year.

Overall, the contract was a great compromise, according to Johnsburg Supervisor Sterling Goodspeed.

“The tourist train has always been nice, but to see a proposal with that kind of depth is exciting,” he said.

Once a considerable concern among local residents and business owners, the absence or delay of an operator would cancel many traditional events.

Many viewed the train as having a significant economic impact on communities like North Creek.

Iowa Pacific plans to continue train-related events like Race the Train and Thomas the Tank or events of the like as well introduce commuter and ski trains to the lines.

www.adirondack-journal.com getting acquainted with so many filling the elected positions in town. Grace said she will be celebrating a birthday in June, and thought it was time to retire.

We wish you a happy retirement, Grace!

Arlene Baker called in a mention of appreciation this week for a fellow Thurmanite.

“To the kind lady who lives on Garnet Lake Road, a special Thank You for sending a birthday card,” she said, describing the woman as someone who is always thinking of others before she thinks of herself.

EMS billing worries some folks

Personal news

With the pending changes to the local emergency medical services, many folks are now asking what they’d do if a family member needs help.

The local squad apparently is converting from a free service to one that bills for its responses.

Many who have been attended to recently by the Warrensburg Squad while the Thurman squad was relatively inactive have received bills — many hundreds of dollars per trip, and they’re worried.

What will the people with average incomes do?

Well, the answer is that the Warrensburg emergency squad — and the local Thurman squad use the practice of “soft billing,” which means that patients should forward the bill to their health insurance company or Medicaid if they are so covered.

If not, the squad will forgive and forget the bill for those of limited means, and those who have plenty of money, of course, should still pay to keep our local EMS services appropriately funded.

But the question remains, why has Thurman lost so many of their volunteers, so paid staffing is necessary? Not only volunteers for emergency medical services, but for the TOPS weight-loss program and so many other functions in town?

I think it’s because people are so busy supporting their families and trying to survive, so they have less time to pursue the other community-oriented activities.

However, I think it would be far better if people lived more in harmony with the Golden Rule rather than making decisions solely for financial gain.

Get Well wishes go out to Ken Ackley, Liz Kennedy, Charlotte Brandt, Earle Dibble, Joe Mosher, to Tom Wunchel, and to all who are feeling ill at this time.

Sympathy goes out to the family of James Lamphier who recently passed away in Texas.

News from Town Hall The town of Thurman is seeking proposals for the potential location and construction of a new highway garage.

The tentative assessment roll was completed on May 1. Other dates and times will be published in an upcoming issue of the Adirondack Journal.
