Auffredou was appointed to the post in a vote by the county Board of Supervisors. On Sept. 26, he steps into the position held for two decades by County Administrator Paul Dusek, who retained the position of county Attorney while undertaking the additional role of administrator in March 2010. The dual workloads had meant long work weeks for Dusek, who sought to CONTINUED ON PAGE 20

The blaze was called in just before 7 a.m. Aug. 22, according to Warrens-

He said that when he arrived, flames were shooting out if the historic threestory Emerson railroad coal bin beside Mill Avenue.

As a result, many government leaders report their budgets will require cuts and they need mandate relief.

The tax cap is set at 2 percent or the average of the na-

The cap could be overridden by a 60 percent vote of a governing body.

Unfunded and underfunded mandates include legal requirements that a local district provide a program,

School opening information released for Warrensburg Central WARRENSBURG —On Tuesday, Sept. 6, school starts for all Warrensburg Central students, from pre-kindergarten to 12th grade.

Before school begins, several events have been scheduled to help students transition back to school, according to Superintendent Tim Lawson.

Visitation day will be held for pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students only on from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 1. Students and parents are invited to visit the classroom, meet the teachers, and have refreshments.

A picnic for 7th graders and their parents will be held Sept. 1, starting at 5:30 p.m. in the high school cafetorium.

On Tuesday, Sept. 6 only, students in prekindergarten and kindergarten will have a shortened school day. The morning prekindergarten session is from 8 to 10 a.m.; the afternoon pre-kindergarten class is from noon until 2 p.m. On Sept. 6 only, kindergarten is from 8 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. for bus students, with parent pick-ups at 11:35 a.m.

On Wednesday, Sept. 7 and after, pre-k and kindergarten will follow their regular schedules.

The regular full-day schedule for students in first grade through sixth grade starts Sept.

6. The school day begins at 8:10 a.m., and ends at 2:50 p.m. for bus students and 2:55 for students who walk home.

All parents and students must enter the main front entrance of Warrensburg Elementary. For safety reasons, no student should be dropped in the back of the school. That area is for use by school buses and staff only.

Parents can either drop their child at the front curb or park in the designated front parking lot and walk their child in. It is ex-

pected that the front circle area will be congested on the first day of school, so parents are urged to park on either Elm St. or Library Avenue for easier access. At dismissal, parents are to wait in the entrance foyer or outside the kindergarten or main entrances.

Parents may enter the building to meet their children at 2:55 p.m.

High School schedule set Students at Warrensburg High School start their day at 8 a.m. on Sept. 6. Students are to report to their first period class on Sept. 6, except for seventh and eighth graders, who will meet in the cafetorium for

a brief assembly. An assembly for ninth-12th grade students will be held after the Junior High assembly. For safety reasons, parents are also reminded to drop off their high school students only in the designated areas.

Student schedules for grades 7 through 12 will tentatively be mailed Aug. 29. Students should bring their schedules to school on the first day. If changes are necessary, school counselors will be available on Sept. 6 to make adjustments.

The school district will be continuing its PRIDE program this fall. Students will have the expectations for behavior in the hallway,

classrooms, on the bus, and in the cafeteria reinforced during the morning assembly.

All Varsity and Junior Varsity teams have begun practicing. Any student who would still like to try out for a team should contact Athletic Director Steve Nolan at 623-2861, ext. 227.

Modified practices will begin as follows: Football, Sept. 1, 3 to 5 p.m. at the high school; Field Hockey, Sept. 1, 3 to 5 p.m. at the high school; Soccer, Sept. 1, 3 to 4:30 p.m. at the elementary school; Volleyball, Sept. 6, 3 to 4:15 p.m. at the high school, room 200.

All athletes need a blue card, health status sheet and a participation form.

Required forms can be found at the school website, www.wcsd.org on the Athletics link.

Again this year, a shuttle bus will transport students who want to walk to the elementary school and then get bussed to the high school. This bus departs from the rear of the elementary school each morning at 7:40 a.m. In the afternoon, a shuttle will transport high school students to the elementary school at 2:55 p.m.

This year breakfast is $1.00 and lunch is $1.75. Reduced price lunch is 25 cents. If parents believe they qualify for free or reducedprice meals, they should complete the application form in the front of the Parent-Student Handbook, which each student will receive on the first day of school, and return the application to the cafeteria manager as soon as possible. The form is also available at the district website.

Parents and friends are encouraged to take advantage of all the information posted on the district website, from free and reduced lunch applications to school lunch menus to teachers’ assignments.

LG board mulls holiday lights, illegal knives, streetscape upgrades

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — The “Holiday Lights Spectacle” installation proposed for downtown may now be a little less spectacular, due to decisions reached last week by the Lake George Village Board.

Village officials are now seeking out additional proposals for the design, installation and operation of a holiday lighting display that was until recently envisioned as lavish, extensive lighting displays — synchronized to music — in Shepard Park and on downtown buildings.

A conceptual proposal for the lighting installation drafted by Adirondack Studios cited that such a display could cost as much as $750,000. The hefty price tag prompted board members to ask village trustee Ray Perry to obtain concepts from other sources.

Perry said he’d already contacted Idea Partners principal John Sahler and Drew Hickman of Holiday Technologies, a specialist in animated light shows from Kansas.

Luisa Craige-Sherman and Patty Kirkpatrick of the Lake George Business partnership said that the $5,000 the town and village have jointly earmarked for designing the light show would be better spent on upgrading existing lighting and repairing existing infrastructure, including public bathrooms, park benches, curbs and signage.

“We have to make sure that what we have now is as it should be,” Craige-Sherman said.

Kirkpatrick said that coordinating a synchronized display

of lighted trees on the west side of Canada Street during the off-season would be difficult, as the lights draw electricity from the individual businesses, which might be closed down for the season. Perry replied that the lighted trees would then clearly indicate the businesses that were open.

Village Mayor Robert Blais said the light show, synchronized to music, could be centered in Shepard Park, with a display including lighting installations on top of the village sewer pumping station next to the beach.

“It would provide a great pedestrian show,” he said.

Perry said that an extensive animated lighting show would draw thousands of tourists to Lake George, boosting the economy in the winter months.

He said that the cost of the installation, perhaps $250,000 or so, could be paid from occupancy tax funds.

“A lighting display would certainly put more heads in beds,” he said.

In other business: • Blais commended Town Clerk Darlene Gunther for 25 years of service to the village, and presented her with a certificate of recognition from the New York Council of Mayors.

• Blais announced that the work to complete upgrading the streetscape along the west side of Canada St. has been delayed until mid-October. Finishing up the work was postponed so enterprises along Canada St. wouldn’t have their foot traffic curtailed, Blais said.

• Also, the Trustees moved ahead on plans of upgrading the streetscape of the east side of Canada St. in front of Shep-

Fort William Henry Resort chefs win ‘Taste of Albany’ food competition LAKE GEORGE – Chefs representing the Fort William Henry Resort shared first place in the annual “A Taste of Albany” charity fundraiser held recently.

Executive Chef Anthony Teta and Chef Melissa Doney represented Fort William Henry at the event, in which more than 40 prestigious Capital District restaurants participated.

The event raised more than $75,000 for the work of the Interfaith Partnership for the Homeless.

Also winning the competition was the noted Albany

eatery 677 Prime.

Event attendees voted by “blind taste” for their favorites entries from the top restaurants within 100 miles of the Capital Region, including Yono’s, Central Steak and Grappa 72, the Fort’s Chef Teta said.

“It’s a great event and a real honor to be recognized among all of these extraordinary chefs,” said Teta, who has worked at Fort William Henry for more than five years.

Doney is no stranger to culinary competition. She was a contestant in Season 8 of the Fox television show,

“Hell’s Kitchen” featuring celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.

“We are so proud of Tony and Melissa,” said Robert Flacke Sr., President of the Fort William Henry Corp.

“Our guests are well aware of their significant culinary skills and now the Albany community has also been given the heads up that a trip up North is well worth it.”

ard Park. They voted to hire Saratoga Associates to draw up plans for upgrades. Blais said the work would be accomplished by village employees, saving about $200,000 from a prior plan to hire a contractor to do the work.

• Blais described the efforts under way to persuade local businesses retailing knives that are legal to sell but illegal to possess. He cited a 16-year-old who was recently arrested by Delmar police for illegal possession of a weapon, and the misdemeanor is jeopardizing his plans for a legal career, Blais said. The boy had won the knife in Leonelli’s arcade in Lake George. The arcade owner, Charles Leonelli, has since removed the knives from his inventory, and paid for the boy’s legal fees, Blais said. Two of several other merchants carrying similar knives have been contacted and have agreed to remove them from sale, Blais said.

• Tim Shudt was named new Chief Sewer Plant Operator for the village, replacing Reggie Burlingame who is ready to retire but is continuing temporarily as a consultant to train Shudt.

• The board approved contracting with Computel Consultants of Earlville, NY to audit utility and cable bills back to 1995 to uncover any overpayment. The village would pay 45 percent of any amount recovered to Computel as payment for their investigation. The full amount of future savings due to reduced charges, however, would be reaped by the village, Blais said.

• Trustees commended village employee Howard Greenholz for finding a tourist’s cell phone and taking action to return it to him.

This will mark the event’s 10th year, and it's been a good tool for introducing people to the town, said Paul Hai of the Adirondack Ecological Center, who is a member of the event committee. For the past two years, and again this year, the weekend will host Teddy Roosevelt.

“We've dug him up, pumped him full of

Red Bull, and he’s here,” said Hai. In an effort to get Roosevelt in a different setting, Hai asked him to talk at the Interpretive Center about life as a sportsman.

As vice-president, Roosevelt was hiking Mount Marcy when he received news that President William McKinley was ailing after being shot the week prior. He then embarked on his famous night-time ride to the nearest train station, in North Creek.

The local connection to the illustrious president is memorialized with a busy weekend of activities around Newcomb. A schedule of events can be found under the Events heading on www.newcombny.com.

Adirondack Journal Editorial

With another sports season, a few reminders on behavior

W

August 27, 2011

www.adirondack-journal.com

hile all area high schools will be officially opening their doors to students in the next two weeks, many of those students have already found their way back to the facilities’ athletic fields.

Almost every sport will have started practicing for the upcoming fall 2011 high school sports season by the end of August, all with eyes on athletic excellence, quality competition and, in the case of varsity teams, a chance to chase the goal of a sectional or even state championship.

The first games are set to take place Labor Day weekend, with a full set of Northern Football Conference games on tap, quickly to be followed by the new Section VII unified soccer season and Section X soccer season, as well as the volleyball, cross country, girls swimming and cheerleading seasons.

This is just the beginning to a new year of sports in all three seasons: fall, winter and spring, where student athletes will take to the field, pool, mats and courts to try their best.

With that comes a few reminders about making sure that the student athletes, coaches and officials enjoy the season, as well as those who come to watch their children, family, friends and alma mater play.

First, when it comes to modified and junior varsity sports, let’s remember that there are no championships here. Sure, it’s nice to win, but these levels are to prepare student athletes for the varsity levels.

Coaches need to remember that these are the levels where fundamentals and implementation happen and coach accordingly. It would surprise a lot of people how many modified teams who win very few games then turn into varsity teams that wins sectional titles.

Also, this is something that parents and fans have to remember. You may question why a certain move took place, but remember that coaches on these levels are trying to give athletes as much experience as possible, which might not always be in the same interest as winning the game.

When it comes to varsity sports, make sure that the competition stays on the field. Nothing is more embarrassing than seeing fans taunt each other and opposing teams because they feel it is helping their team. It’s not. It’s embarrassing them, the

school and, more importantly, the person doing the taunting.

No one goes to work the next day and says, “Did you see how so-and-so screamed at the ref for a bad call and then ran down to the sidelines to confront the coach after the game. They have real team spirit.” Instead they say, “Did you see how so-and-so screamed at the ref for a bad call and then ran down to the sidelines to confront the coach after the game. They’re a real jerk.”

Unfortunately, this type of behavior can be promoted when people are allowed to anonymously post derogatory comments about other teams, officials and coaches on websites, or have those comments seen in print. You can’t trumpet the cause of sportsmanship in one breath and then provide a platform for malicious and hurtful speak in another.

Student athletes need to remember the same. There is no need for name-calling, derogatory remarks or insults in the midst of competition. If you think you need to do it because your sports role model does it, you have the wrong role model.

Enjoy the competition. Enjoy playing against your peers in athletic contests.

Former opponents can be close friends after the games end, and the glory days are retold to children and grandchildren, or even right after the final buzzer sounds.

This also leads to being a good sport.

There is no need to insult or talk bad about a team after a game is finished, because the game is just that — finished.

Over.

What would be great is when the endof-game lineup takes place, every player and coach meant what they said when they went through that line, instead of walking through like a zombie mumbling out, “good game” or “nice job.” Be sincere in victory and defeat.

So, to all who are ready for another scholastic sports season, here is to a safe, fun and, hopefully, sportsmanship-filled year of competition.

This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Lou Varricchio, Keith Lobdell, Jeremiah Papineau, Andy Flynn and John Gereau. Comments may be directed to denpubs@denpubs.com.

•100 Years Ago – Aug. 1911• Exciting news from afar In Warrensburgh barber shops and around local places where men congregate to smoke their pipes and converse, the big news that excites aviation fans comes from Chicago where two deaths marked the fourth day of the great aviation meet there. William C. Badger, the son of a Pittsburgh millionaire and St. Croix Johnstone, a Chicago boy, both met a spectacular death when they went down in a blaze of glory before their shocked and adoring fans and the news quickly spread across the country.

William Badger was a national hero, a daredevil former automobile racer and the idol of every schoolboy. The accident he suffered took place before the eyes of thousands of people as he was attempting some spectacular maneuvers. One of the wings of his flying machine came in contact with the bank of a deep gully and in an instant the plane went to pieces. Badger was picked up unconscious, bleeding from a dozen wounds. His back was broken and death soon followed in the ambulance. There was a frenzied rush to the crash site and police had difficulty in preserving order.

That same day, St. Croix Johnstone was a half-mile off shore when his motor blew up.

www.adirondack-journal.com

Hugh A. Robinson, in his hydroplane, swooped down from 300 feet in the air in a thrilling but vain attempt at rescue. Johnstone fell under his monoplane and was carried down under his engine. A fleet of motor boats recovered his dead body.

through a heavy partition into the dye room.

Fortunately there was no one in its path, two men having finished some work there only the night before. The engine was temporarily repaired and operations were resumed the next day.

Prominent lady dies

Big party in Thurman

Mrs. Walter Pasco, 71, died of heart trouble at 4 a.m. Aug. 4, 1911 at her home on River St., Warrensburgh, after an illness of only an hour. She had been subject to similar attacks for several years and she had been feeling unusually well of late and her death was a shock to her family.

She had been a highly respected resident of this village for 28 years having come here with her family from Johnsburgh. She is survived by her husband, one son, Delbert E. Pasco and a daughter, Mrs. George W. Davison of Glens Falls. Burial was in the Warrensburgh Cemetery. (Note: Mrs. Pasco lived in the big white house on the corner of Commercial Avenue, next door to Pasco’s hardware store, now Curtis Lumber.)

During the month of August 1911 Henry Griffing has been entertaining at the old Griffing homestead near Thurman Station — a house party composed of his nearest kin.

For several years the party has been an annual event. Attending from Warrensburgh were family members Frederick Osborne and daughter, Mrs. Orley Hazelton.

The old house was the birthplace of Mr. Griffing and his sister, Mrs. Taylor and there they passed their childhood days with their parents, Nathaniel and Susan Boyd Griffing.

The building was an old-fashioned farm house of the better class and was, in its day, a mansion. It is delightfully situated on a rise of ground and is surrounded by some magnificent shade trees and though a century old, it is in excellent condition having been well cared for. Last spring, Mr. Griffing made many improvements, especially in the interior. The house is filled with one of the finest and most valuable collections of old furniture in this area. Mr. Griffing is a connoisseur of fine antiques. (Note: Henry’s

Explosion at the Woolen Mill The cylinder head of the steam engine at the plant of the Warrensburgh Woolen Mill on Milton Avenue blew out recently just before the machinery had been started for the day. The part was hurled with terrific force

Adirondack Journal - 7 grandfather, Stephen Griffing Sr., a veteran and officer in the American Revolution and his wife, Elizabeth Uhl settled in Thurman in the house opposite the present day Thurman bridge in 1800. Frederick Osborne married Helen Griffing, the sister of Henry Griffing.

The old Griffing cemetery is close by. The Griffing homestead is still standing, one of the oldest houses in Warren County. For many years it has been the home of Deliah Walter.)

Theatre has new manager T.J. Lynch of Utica has assumed the management of the Empire Theatre in Glens Falls for the lessees, the Shuberts of New York City, succeeding James A. Holden who resigned in order to give his entire attention to his duties as New York State Historian to which office he was appointed by Gov. John A. Dix quite some time ago. Mr. Lynch is a young man but has an extended experience in the theatrical business. (Note: In 1898, the barns of the Lake George Stage Coach Co. were demolished to make room for the Empire Theatre which opened on South St., Glens Falls on Oct. 6, 1899 when the play, “Way Down East” was performed there. The theatre drew some of the nations biggest musical acts of its time during the late 1800s and early 1900s. The theatre was very popular among Warrensburgh people who were able to travel there and back on the trolley.) Since 1950, the building sat in limbo until it was bought for renovation in 2008 by developer Michael Kaidas.)

Good people, bad accidents Mrs. N.J. Kenyon, while going down the steps at the side entrance to the Warrensburgh shirt factory, Aug. 30, 1911, fell and doubling one of her legs under her broke a bone near the ankle, a bad break on account of the location. Dr. Cunningham and Dr. Griffin attended her.

In other news further down the street, while playing near Hockaday’s Harness Shop on Friday, Aug. 25, 1911, Harry Whipple, the 10-year-old son of Charles Whipple of Lewisville (River St. area) cut his right foot on an old scythe, nearly severing two toes. Dr. Griffin decided that amputation would be necessary but later decided to try to save the injured members using five stitches to close the wound.

News from near and far

The cast of the Last of the Mohicans Outdoor Drama presented its last shows of 2011 this past weekend. Here they pose with Hollywood celebrity Ralph Macchio Jr., who is a renowned actor, director, and former star of the “Karate Kid.” Macchio and his parents recently attended the show, which had prompted rave reviews in its new expansive outdoor setting at Wild West Ranch off Bloody Pond Road in Lake George. For more information, visit online at www.LastoftheMohicans.org or call 681-1574.

The good news from afar is that almost four-fifths of the total excavation to be done on the Panama Canal has been completed.

Mrs. Goldie Fritzer gave birth to a baby girl, in the Jewish Maternity Hospital, weighing 14 pounds 10 ounces, breaking the hospital’s record. Mrs. Fritzer was married at the age of 17 and now she is 40 years old.

Of her 17, nine of them are still living.

Letters to the Editor Spend funds to eradicate clams, not to buy land To the Adirondack Journal: The existence of Asian clams in Lake George is a very serious invasive problem with unimaginable consequences.

I applaud those involved in research, as well as our local government for their rapid response. However, the use of bed tax dollars is only a Band-Aid, and in my opinion, a misuse of that fund.

The state Environmental Protection Fund, which is derived from fishing license sales, marine gas taxes and boat registrations, is designed and appropriated for the protection of our precious water and land resource management. Unfortunately, the state Department of Environmental Conservation is hoarding those funds to purchase more land— which they are unable to care for!

I encourage everyone to contact your local elected political representatives to lobby state DEC officials and encourage them to change their course of direction and take care of the precious land and water that we are so fortunate to already have.

Patrick Mannix Queensbury

Looking for more leadership in America To the Adirondack Journal: This is in response to Dan Alexander ’s editorial.

I couldn’t agree more on the need for confident and broad reaching leadership, or it’s going to take forever to get out of this mess.

Part of the mess are systems (health care,

taxes, schools, etc.) that are both antiquated and very poorly designed; the US (especially) has been getting by pretty nicely, ever since WWII was won by the Allies, and we could “afford” to be stupid. Now, we are in terrible trouble.

Bush was an excellent leader for getting things done, in the context of this constant no holds barred fight between Republicans and Democrats; unfortunately, most of his major ideas arguably made things much worse. Obama would be a terrific leader (bold and confident and collaborating) if the political parties were cooperating, but his style is severely dampened by the Republican declared goal of making him fail, no matter what the cost. We all lose.

One key to a successful path out, I believe, would be the desire and action to create solutions that are respectful of everyone affected. The controversy over gay marriage is a case in point. I am sympathetic to keeping “marriage” as it has been traditionally defined—but, NOT at the expense of gay persons and their loving relationships and families. If we can back a different label that infers the same respect and guarantees the same legal advantages and security for the equivalent of marriage between gay persons, I think there will be much wider support, and then we move on to the next issue, and the next issue, and …

We need to respect and support the rich and the poor, the intellectually educated and the experience educated, gifted leaders along with those of us content to follow and work together, Christians and Muslims and all other religions—the list will get very lengthy, but the principle has to be applied everywhere! Easier said than done, but we have to start with the paramount goal of real

and effective respect and support for all, or we are screwed, in my opinion.

APA to lead economic policy? No way!

To the Adirondack Journal: It looks like the environmentalists are running scared. They are desperately arguing that the Adirondack Park Agency should become the economic czar for the towns and villages in these mountains.

Their self-serving proposal is a reaction to the obstacles that are forming to their influence over the future inside the Adirondack Blue Line. The local governments are vigorously exerting leadership to grow the North Country economy. Our local leaders have faced up to the bad news about declining school enrollments, the exit of youth, and other disheartening statistics reported in the 2009 Adirondack research report that local towns and counties commissioned. These local officials are taking the lead to change the direction of the economy.

And, most ironically for the enviro-agenda, Governor Andrew Cuomo has designated economic development regions for the entire state without singling out an Adirondack region for separate treatment. Instead, he has logically divided the Adirondack area so that a part of the area is included in each economic development region containing the relevant population center where that geographic part of the Adirondacks is commercially connected.

What could be worse for the radical environmental agenda than for our Governor to

have failed to confirm the environmentalists’ “Indian Reservation” concept for the Adirondacks, first officially pronounced in the 1990 report commissioned by Gov. Mario Cuomo, known as the recommendations of the Twenty-first Century Commission on the Adirondacks?

More than 20 years ago local people successfully rose up in anger against the economic and culturally destructive recommendations of that report.

The APA was a central part of the action leading up to the report and the effort to implement it. The report had been preceded a year earlier by the secret designation of the region as the U.N. Champlain-Adirondack Biosphere Reserve; the application was penned by an environmental planner at the APA. The report was followed by legislation to fully implement almost every detail, written by the APA’s then-executive director.

Isolation of the Adirondacks as a separate economic region where the APA “leads” economic policy would be the worst scenario for the future of the more than 100 towns and villages located in these 12 mountainous counties.

The sudden push by environmental powerhouses, most notably the Adirondack Council, to enthrone the detestable Adirondack Park Agency as the czar for economic development in the Adirondacks is a desperate, deceptive move.

As my beloved mother-in-law used to say: “You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.”

The statistics are staggering:

By Bonnie Sprinkle, AFAA Certified Personal Trainer Surgeon General Richard H. Carmona recently stated: “Obesity is a health crisis. It’s the fastest-growing cause of disease & death in America. And it’s completely preventable.” The statistics are staggering: Nearly two out of every three Americans are overweight or obese.

One out of every eight deaths in America is caused by an illness directly related to obesity.

According to BMI measurements; just 13% of adults were obese in 1960; more than 30% met the criteria by 1999, current figures are nearly 65%. That is disturbing information. Can we rush into poor health any faster? So many health conditions are preventable, yet many folks refuse to make even simple lifestyle changes that could reduce risk of those conditions. In 2000 the US Department of health published Healthy People 2010, a series of health objectives . with a goal of reducing obesity to 15% by the end of 2010. Well now….. Hummm….. that one certainly backfired. Not only are we not at 15% but it has grown to almost 65%. Public Health officials are currently working on developing new goals for Healthy People 2020. The plan calls for cutting calories and exercising more. Now it ought to be dawning on us that as a society something is wrong with this. It’s been tried for the last few decades with the results being increasing obesity rather than decreasing it.

Side effects of obesity are metabolic syndrome & type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is the 6th leading cause of death in the U.S., greatly increasing a persons risk of heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, nervous system disorders and amputations. Conditions associated with Metabolic syndrome (MeS) are sleep apnea, aging, hormonal imbalances such as hypothyroidism or adrenal insufficiency. I believe as the medical community learns more about MeS, that it will be discovered how it truly disrupts quality and enjoyment of life.

Information regarding improving ones health is everywhere. Availability of gyms, health clubs & community group fitness classes have grown in staggering numbers in recent years. Yoga, pilates, boot camp, zumba, & volleyball are available on a daily basis, even in our local small towns. Warm weather allows us to walk, bike, kayak, run or jog and is available anytime. Yet getting fit seems to elude most participants. Many believe more is better, over-training abounds. Eat less, exercise more, some say it’s that simple. For most people it certainly has not been that simple. Lose some and gain back even more. Lose some more, lose energy and give up again & again.

The old belief of exercise more and eat less has again proven itself wrong. It is more complex than that, but is it difficult to understand? The last few decades were filled with year after year of the next “new” diet, the next “new” diet pill or the greatest “new” sculpting routine, now even surgery has been added to the mix of options. Weight is lost, sometimes lots of weight, but is body fat percentage reduced? More of the same old thing just recycled to appear new. Look at the latest aerobic trends, remakes of the same old aerobic dance.

Marketed to a new audience most who are too young to remember the aerobic dance classes of the 80’s. The only real difference is that leg warmers and headbands have given way to newer fashion trends. Now it’s the $100 pair of dance pants, the latest sneakers and you’re ready to go.

Exercise or even just daily activities must be supported with adequate fuel in order to support bodily functions and allow the body to reduce body fat. We do “need” nourishment in the form of whole foods in order to lower body fat percentages and therefore lose weight. We’re doomed as long as we try to lose weight and get healthy by suppressing the appetite. It seems the harder we work on fitness the more elusive it becomes. No wonder people give up after a few attempts. Every spring there is the new fitness push, only to over-do, over-train...go all out for a few weeks and then burn out and quit within a few weeks.

Are we ready for another decade of the same? Each of us can make the changes needed. Are you making quality real food choices or are you depending on a packaged treat? Are you staying mobile and active?

Surveys show that only about 5% of Americans participate in some type of daily exercise. A good place to start would be 3 days a week for about 30 minutes of moderate activity for the inactive but otherwise healthy person. Maybe start introducing a new or extra vegetable each week, start eating breakfast, drink more water. Don’t force it just get a plan and build on it, each week add something new and get rid of something bad. Slow and steady and in a few weeks you’ll start to see changes. Not the dramatic weight loss of TV shows but a realistic gradual weight loss that also results in body fat reduction. It’s up to us to change this trend before it reaches into another generation of Americans. We are responsible for your own well-being.

Health and fitness without equipment getting more exercise while you’re doing something else We all know we need to keep active for the sake of health and fitness. It is hard to avoid all the messages that tout daily exercise or urge us to buy into some kind of fitness plan. Suppose we do not have time to join a gym, break out exercise videos, or even go for a walk every day. How can we exercise under those circumstances? Accumulate minutes. It doesn’t matter if you have no exercise equipment. You don’t need it to follow these suggestions.

The Surgeon General’s Report on Physical Activity and Health recommends that everyone accumulate thirty minutes of moderate intense activity every day or almost every day.

“Accumulate” means that we don’t have to do it all at once. “Moderate intensity” means that we begin to feel warm and slightly out of breath as we’re doing it. You can conscientiously work toward total body fitness even without a formal daily exercise program.

It’s not practical to think of doing one minute of moderately intense activity thirty times a day.

It takes more than a minute to get the heart-rate up far enough to count. But it is practical to add five or ten minutes of physical activity several times a day. Be very intentional about it, and you can you can enhance your health and fitness without completely changing your daily routine.

Most people spend most of the day either at home or at work. We can achieve the greatest improvements to health and fitness by making adjustments there. Most of us also spend time shopping or otherwise doing things somewhere else besides home or work. It should be a simple matter to apply the same principles that help enhance total body fitness to what we can do in these other places.

Exercise at home Total body fitness, of course, requires attention to what you eat and balanced daily exercise.

Balanced exercise means attention to aerobic training, resistance (weight) training, and stretching. How can we work the various kinds of exercise into what we do around the house as a matter of course?

Do you have stairs in your home? Go up and down them at every opportunity. Now, I have always done that without intending to. Wherever I am, something I want--my glasses, my shoes, my pencil--is bound to be somewhere else, likely as not upstairs or downstairs.

Once it dawned on me that my inefficiency was giving me daily exercise opportunity, I stopped getting upset with myself. Now, I will deliberately carry groceries, trash, reading material, or whatever up or down in two or more trips even if I am capable of holding it all at once. Stair climbing is a kind of aerobic exercise. Carrying something moderately heavy up the stairs adds an element of weight training--especially if we don’t just carry it, but lift it or curl it or otherwise move it around as we walk.

Whether you have stairs or not, you don’t always have to walk normally from room to room.

March instead; make sure to lift your knees to about waist level. If you’ve ever marched in a band, you know you have to pace yourself to go five yards in eight steps. You get better exercise by marching than by ordinary walking for just a little more time.

Or, for a variation, do walking lunges. Do one lunge, lift the back foot in front of you and immediately walk into another lunge on the other foot. Keep it up till you get where you’re going. Don’t worry if it feels or looks silly. You’re working on health and fitness. Whether marching or lunging, carrying something moderately heavy enhances the effect.

Do you watch television? Don’t just sit there or lie there on the couch. At least during commercial breaks, get up and march in place or do any other kind exercise: jumping jacks, lunges (including lateral lunges), pushups, sit-ups, crunches, squats, any pilates or yoga moves you know, etc. It’s also a good time to stretch This article is about daily exercise without equipment, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use it if you have some. If you have a stability ball, sit on that during the program. In fact, once you learn a number of basic exercises with it, you can do an uninterrupted exercise routine in front of the television. The same goes for resistance bands, dumbbells, and whatever other similar equipment you might have.

Whatever housework you do, from vacuuming to gardening count toward your daily exercise.

Gardening is probably strenuous enough on its own. Other activities may require some creative enhancements to turn them into exercise of moderate intensity. Use your imagination and enjoy yourself, keeping in mind the ultimate goal of total body fitness.

Make indoor mold growth a distant memory When mold begins to grow, homeowners will notice a less-than-welcoming aroma often characterized as musty. In addition, mold growth, which is most common in areas of the home like the kitchen, bathroom and basement where humidity and moisture levels are higher, can be unsightly and unhealthy. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine linked indoor exposure to mold with upper respiratory tract symptoms, cough and wheeze in people who, prior to exposure, were healthy. The IOM also found exposure to mold can exacerbate asthma conditions for people who already have asthma and even linked respiratory illness in otherwise healthy children to exposure to mold.

What such research highlights is the emphasis homeowners must place on removing mold from their homes. While mold is a natural part of the environment that is impossible to eliminate entirely, homeowners can take steps to stop mold growth in their homes and protect themselves and their families along the way. When addressing a mold problem, keep in mind the potentially negative impact mold can have on your health and dress accordingly. Wear long sleeves, gloves, protective goggles, and even a mask or respirator that covers the nose and mouth to reduce your risk of developing a respiratory illness. * Fix leaky pipes and additional water problems. Mold growth can cause cosmetic damage that can never be repaired. But fixing leaky pipes and addressing other water problems, including leaky windows, is a good way to stop future mold growth and prevent further cosmetic damage to the home. * Scrub and dry moldy surfaces. When addressing moldy surfaces, scrub them hard with detergent and water.

Once finished, dry the surfaces thoroughly. Going forward, routinely clean areas of the home that have had mold growth in the past. * Discard certain materials that fall victim to mold. Porous or absorbent surfaces will likely need to be discarded once they have been victimized by mold growth. Ceiling tiles and carpets, for example, are especially difficult to rid of mold once it's settled in because the mold finds cracks and crevices in which it essentially hides from cleaning. In such cases, it's best to simply discard the items and have them replaced. * Do not mask the mold problem. Painting or caulking over mold won't work. When applied to moldy surfaces, paint typically cracks. Instead of wasting paint and time, scrub and dry the surfaces, making sure all the mold is gone, and then paint or caulk. * Leave big jobs to the pros. Smaller mold growths can be addressed by the average homeowner. However, when mold growth is especially large or mold has grown on valuable items, including heirlooms, it's best to hire a professional. When doing so, try to find one a friend or neighbor can recommend, as not all mold-removal specialists are created equal. If it's hard to find a recommendation, look for a specialist who is affiliated with a professional organization.Such organizations typically insist their members have a certain level of experience and training before they can become members.

by Al in rustic themes. Al also crafts a variety of rustic Adirondack furniture, from Adirondack chairs to a wide variety of custom furniture. Nearly all of the wood used in his creations is sustainably harvested right from the property.

Their work is showcased in a historic 1804 Griffing homestead farmhouse.

Skylar Ladson, granddaughter of Irv West on High St., swam beside sharks as she celebrated her 12th birthday on Aug. 9 at a swimming party in a “shark tank” pool in Las Vegas. Many guests attended in celebration of her birthday.

Note that Skylar received a gift of a $50 bill for her birthday, and she turned around and presented it to her mother, who had just been laid off from work, to help pay for household expenses. This girl is one in a million!

About 25 friends and relatives got together Aug. 13 to enjoy a picnic lunch at Echo Lake in Warrensburg. The weather was a delight after so many days of extremely hot temperatures.

Folks enjoyed catching up on all the family news and the opportunity of getting together. Guests came from the Schenectady and Galway areas, as well as closer points including Bolton, Glens Falls, and Thurman.

The youngest member of the family attending was Isaiah Cuva, 8, son of Jessica Varnum Cuva of Gansevoort, and the eldest were Beatrice (Russell) Bevins, 88, and her husband Guy Bevins, who’s a similar age. The couple is from Glens Falls.

They play country rock, or as it’s now known, “American roots music.” Whatever you call it, The Stony Creek Band is the real deal, and they’ve been rocking venues in the northeastern U.S. since the late 1970s.

They feature original tunes as well as some covers, and they have quite a following, not only from the lower Adirondacks, but from all over.

Their concert will be topped off with fireworks, and we hear it’s likely to be an impressive aerial display.

Solar-powered parking meters proposed for West Brook Road

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com

Katie Cassavant and Jason Smegal, of Pittsfield, Mass., inspect one of the pay-and-display meters the village of Lake George installed this year along Canada St. The solar-powered meters accept coins and bills but not credit cards. Officials of the town of Lake George are now considering going one step further — installing pay stations that accept credit cards to serve about 75 parking spaces along property they own on West Brook Road.

LAKE GEORGE — As soon as next summer, West Brook Road will likely have solar-powered parking meters that accept credit-card payments, according to an initiative now under consideration by the Lake George Town Board.

The Town Board is seeking to provide convenient paid parking for visitors, while taxpayers of the town are likely to reap $30,000 or more annually in revenue, Lake George Town Supervisor Frank McCoy said Aug. 22.

McCoy said that over the past several days, he had contacted the town board members with the idea, and they had pledged their support.

Three pay-and-display meters would serve about 75 spaces along the eastbound and westbound lanes of West Brook Road that the town owns, and the village government is planning a similar installation on their short east portion of the westbound lane, McCoy said. This spring, the village installed three of the pay-and-display stations along Canada St., and they’ve experienced considerable use, officials have said.

Parking yields considerable revenue for local government coffers. Last summer, the village reaped $458,500 from parking meters, including about $337,000 from Canada Street alone.

Unlike most all the village meters, the town’s proposed pay-and-display meters will be equipped to charge credit and debit cards by satellite hookup, and accept U.S. bills and coins as well as Canadian cash, McCoy said. Such meters offer the convenience of allowing parking without searching out businesses that will exchange quarters for bills, he said.

Also, the smart meters allow charging for day-long parking so visitors don’t have to repeatedly hike back to their meters to prevent an overtime parking ticket, he said, noting the devices also are self-auditing and defeat pilferage.

The meters cost about $12,000 apiece, and the initial cost of the meters will likely be paid off in a little more than a year, McCoy said.

The meters should take in $30,000 to $40,000 per year and offer some relief for local taxpayers, he said.

“With the tax cap coming up this next year, we have to take a look at generating all the revenue we can,” McCoy said.

This initiative of metered parking along West Brook Road is under consideration in conjunction with the upcoming development of West Brook environmental park.

Aug. 19, consulting planners for the village and Warren County unveiled an ambitious project to build three pedestrian bridges across West Brook — including one with an observation tower — and construct an entrance building develop an amphitheater.

To date, the West Brook park has been envisioned to include a 2.5-acre festival area with public parking, as well as walking and bicycling trails, wildlife-filled marshes, and scenic overlooks.

The festival staging area in the park will be overseen by the county and village, and used for the major events like Americade, the Lake George Car Show as well as community events, craft shows and themed festivals.

A public skateboarding venue is now included for the environmental park, which has a primary purpose of naturally filtering and purifying stormwater before it reaches Lake George.

Fort William Henry re-enacts outpost’s surrender LAKE GEORGE — The 254th anniversary of the surrender of Fort William Henry occurred about two weeks ago, and a ceremony involving re-enactors was held on the grounds of the restored fort to observe the occasion.

At noon on Aug. 9 — about the same time as the original surrender — re-enactors representing British forces under Lieutenant Colonel Munro marched out of the Fort William Henry Museum accompanied with fife and drum. On the lawn of the Fort William Henry Hotel, the British were met by the leader of the French and Indian forces, the Marquis de Montcalm. The terms of surrender were read aloud by Montcalm, and Munro turned over his sword and control of the fort to Montcalm.

The re-enactors consisted of staff of the Fort William Hen-

ry Museum. The part of the Marquis de Montcalm was played by lead guide Daniel Donahue, and Munro was played by Stephen McGee, also a guide at the fort.

The group then marched to the military cemetery for a wreath laying ceremony. After a short speech by Montcalm, a bagpiper played “Amazing Grace,” followed by a musket volley in salute.

The event was sponsored by the Fort William Henry Museum and the French & Indian War Society, a group formed in 1999 by a area historians, archaeologists and enthusiasts working to foster a continuing appreciation for the Lake George region’s involvement in this pivotal event in American History.

When Crossing roads, please look at the Bus Driver. Wait for the Driver to motion you to cross.

Then cross 10 feet out away from the front of the bus. The Driver wants to be able to see your child, while the child can see the driver in-turn.

Instruct your child NEVER to bend down to pick up a dropped item. He/She should go directly to the bus and tell the Driver that he/she dropped an item.

The Driver will tell the child what to do. Keep in mind that it might be advisable to leave the item where it was dropped. If it is unsafe to pick up the item, it is better to replace the item than to justify losing a child’s life. This cannot be replaced.

The bus stop is not a play area—wait at least 15 feet away from the road area.

All items brought on the bus must be held on the child’s lap.

Any toys that are brought in their tote bags must remain in the bags. It is very easy for a ball, toy truck, etc. to roll in the aisle, possibly interfering with the controls. In the event of a sudden stop, loose items become missiles.

No gum chewing or lollipops are to be eaten on the bus. They can be swallowed and are dangerous.

No food or drinks may be consumed on the bus.

The emergency exit handles must NEVER be played with. They are not toys.

No heads, hands, or arms are to be out of the windows at any time. The danger of injuries from signs, tree branches, or other vehicles is likely.

Do NOT poke holes in the seats or tear off any pieces of tape. The seats are very costly to repair.

Remain in your seat for the entire ride. Do NOT leave the seat until the bus has completely stopped.

River Street fire from page 1 “The coal bin structure was totally involved,” he said. “It was a very fast-moving fire producing intense heat.”

Two nearby structures, one housing Glendale Antiques and another used solely for storage, were also in flames. All three buildings are owned by Glenda and Kent Duell of Thurman.

Hall and other Warrensburg firefighters arriving soon afterwards immediately got to work attempting to save nearby buildings, he said.

The fire had erupted in the metal-sided R&D Transmission building about 30 feet away, but firefighters and the transmission repair employees put out the blaze before it could ignite explosive pressurized gases used for welding as well as petroleum substances.

The heat from the blaze destroyed seven vehicles, two boats and a camper-trailer, Hall said. Most if not all were owned by the Duells, and several of them were not insured for casualty loss.

The fire’s heat also shattered windows in the River Street Plaza building and CWI building across Mill St, both of which suffered substantial damage to their siding.

Glenda Duell, on her way back from a trip to Virginia, said via cell phone that she and her husband Kent, her son Karl Jr. and other relatives had suffered substantial losses because the destroyed buildings had been used to store personal belongings of family members.

“My son Karl lost everything,” she said, noting that his possessions, tools, and his workshop at the site were destroyed. Due to the blaze, Kent Duell lost all his construction equipment, tools, and a substantial amount of building materials, as well as several vehicles.

The coal bin, the Glendale Antiques building and the adjacent storage shed were full of household goods, furniture, personal items, tools, equipment and antiques, she said.

“There was tons of stuff stored there,” she said.

Several of the vehicles, including a vintage 1972 Triumph, and two boats were as far as 40 feet away from the raging fire — and apparently they burst into flames due to the intense heat.

The carriage-house apartment building closer to River St. that the Duells also own endured substantial damage.

The building housed the Duells’ son Karl Jr., his new wife Karen, and their two-month old baby. They were at home at

the time of the fire, Glenda Duell said.

The fire’s intense heat shattered their bedroom window and kitchen window, and the mini-blinds in the windows behind the glass were melted.

Glenda Duell said Karl became aware of the fire, ran out to move several of the vehicles, but was repelled by the intense heat. His truck and car were destroyed in the fire.

Firefighters from Bolton, Chester were on the scene with fire engines, and Lake George firefighters attacked the blaze from their tower truck. Also responding were firefighters from Thurman, North Queensbury, and Queensbury Central. Hadley-Luzerne firefighters were on alert. A total of 75 firefighters were on the scene, about 20 of them from Warrensburg, Hall estimated.

The firefighters collaborated to crate a curtain of water on several sides of the burning structures, Hall said, to contain the damage due to the inferno.

Duell said that about six weeks ago, an unknown vandal started a fire in the coal bin, and that it smoldered for days, but was extinguished, and she blamed the most recent blaze on arson.

Hall, however said that investigators determined the fire

may have been caused by a cigarette discarded by someone let into one of the buildings to inspect antiques.

The Aug. 22 blaze charred a nearby power pole, melted utility lines, cutting off power to about 10 customers, National Grid employees on the scene said.

At noon Aug. 22, Warren County Public Works employees were poised to push down the charred remains of the coal bin building so they wouldn’t fall into Mill St. While smoke was still emerging from the remains of the coal bin building, Hall said that the damage was substantial, and that state and county fire Cause & Origin team members were on the scene investigating the blaze.

“This is the biggest structure fire we’ve had here in quite some time,” he said.

At about 6:45 p.m., Kent and Glenda Duell arrived on site to see the damage. Dozens of their friends offered condolences as Kent and Glenda gazed at the charred wreckage.

“This looks like Ground Zero,” Kent Duell said with a steely gaze. “This is unreal.”

“At least everyone’s alive, and that’s all that really matters,” Glenda Duell replied.

save the county the $100,000 or so salary accompanying the post.

Dusek said that Auffredou was selected from four candidates who were interviewed a month ago for the post by Dusek, County Board of Supervisors Chairman Dan Stec and several other county supervisors.

“Martin has a great reputation in the community, and he’s a very competent attorney,” Dusek said. “He will serve the county well.”

After the appointment, Auffredou said he was looking forward to the work accompanying the position.

“This is a great privilege and honor for me,” he said. “I’m very pleased the supervisors think highly enough of me to select me.”

“I’ve got a lot of work ahead,” he added.

Both the county Personnel Committee and

the full board endorsed hiring Auffredou at a salary of $110,000. That sum prompted Bolton Supervisor Ron Conover, Glens Falls Ward 1 Supervisor Dan Girard, and Queensbury at-large Supervisor David Strainer all to cast “No” votes for the appointment — on the basis that the salary should be lower for starting pay.

Auffredou has decades of experience in practicing municipal law, as well as the specialties of education, environmental and labor law, as well as zoning and land-use matters. He is a principal attorney with the law firm Bartlett, Stewart, Pontiff and Rhodes.

Auffredou now serves as attorney for a number of towns, villages and school districts in the region. Also, Auffredou has served as counsel for the Lake George Park Commission for about 18 years.

Dusek’s service to Warren County as County Attorney — particularly in the past year in dual roles — prompted robust applause from the supervisors at the Aug. 19 meeting.

Region feels effects of Va. earthquake

By Jon Hochschartner jonh@denpubs.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — An earthquake struck the East Coast the afternoon of Tuesday, Aug. 23.

The 5.8 magnitude earthquake with an epicenter near Mineral, Va. struck around 1:51 p.m., according to the United States Geological Survey. The location is 38 miles northwest of Richmond and 84 miles southwest of Washington, D.C. The quake prompted evacuations at the Pentagon, White House, and Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C..

Some tourist attractions, such as the Washington Monument, were closed to the public.

The quake was felt from Michigan to Maine, as far south as North Carolina, and throughout the Adirondack region.

Jon Zander works in an office on Mirror Lake Drive in Lake Placid. He said it felt like a “semi-truck was driving a little too close to the building.”

“My office mate and I just stopped what we were doing and looked at each other,” he said, adding that his coworker asked if they were experiencing an earthquake.

Zander responded by saying, “I think we are.”

Essex County Director of Emergency Services Don Jaquish said though numerous people had called 911, there were no reports of damage. The earthquake was felt in Elizabethtown around 1:55 p.m. lasting a little less than 3 minutes.

Jane Hooper, the director of community relations at Elizabethtown Community Hospital said the earthquake was felt at the medical center.

“It was like a slow kind of rumble,” Hooper said. “I don’t think it affected the hospital, but we could feel it.”

Samantha Roy of Elizabethtown said she felt the quake.

“I was on the phone with a friend of mine, and I was like ‘Oh my God, my house is shaking,’” Roy said,

adding that when she told her dad, he said that he thought she was on drugs.

Dina Garvey, who works for the Essex County Board of Supervisors said, “Honestly, I didn’t think it was an earthquake. I kind of felt the chair move a little bit.”

Keene Supervisor William Ferebee said town residents, including him, felt the earthquake.

“In fact, I called Don Jaquish to make sure Little Porter hadn’t slid off into Keene Valley,” Ferebee said.

The supervisor said he planned on checking the site of the town’s ongoing landslide the afternoon of Aug. 23 to see if the earthquake had affect the site. His office had received a number of concerned calls from people in the town, but no damage was reported.

Check the website www.DenPubs.com for a video of Elizabethtown residents responding to the earthquake.

Moose Festival returns to Indian Lake in September

By John Grybos

jgrybos@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — Barks, bellows and grunts. Moos and moans. With a range like that, contestants at the town's first-ever moose-calling imitation competition have their work cut out for them.

Slated for Saturday, Sept. 24 from 2 to 4 p.m., the calling contest is the big new event at the Great Adirondack Moose Festival, said Brenda Valentine, one of the event organizers.

“It's a hoot,” she said.

It's actually more like a foghorn, said Ed Kanze, an author and nature guide who'll judge the competition.

The low ululations make the sound travel, especially helpful when the beasts navigate foggy autumn forests.

He's joked that the grand prize for the best moose mime will be enticing one of the animals out of the forest. Though it's silly to think it might happen, he said, it's not completely impossible.

Mating season for these massive mammals, which can reach 1,200

pounds and six feet at the shoulder, is ramping up along with the festival. Males are the loudest, said Kanze, and at their most creative when luring potential mates.

He's busy with homework studying the noises, and he doesn't think that the moose's calls are too low for human females to imitate.

“We'll make sure we have gender fairness in the event,” he said.

His criteria for judging will include accuracy, but spirit is important, too. The winner will be someone who takes the contest seriously enough to sound like a moose and is enthusiastic enough to make the proceedings enjoyable.

“I'd like this to be fun, I'd like there to be an element of comedy,” Kanze said.

The festival, in its second year, will run Sept 24 and 25, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m each day. Valentine said the first year set the bar high.

“We were overwhelmed with tourists coming into the area to possibly see a moose,” she said.

They did have at least one moose sighting last year, said Valentine, and they ask people to log sightings with the organizers.

Tax cap from page 1 William Ferebee, supervisor of Keene, said the cap definitely will affect his town, though he wasn’t sure yet if it would require budget cuts.

The state comptroller ’s guidelines regarding the cap, according to Ferebee, have so far not been clear “at all.”

What if, for an unseen reason, Ferebee said, the town had to hire a lawyer, the cost of whom would place the budget over the tax cap? What would the town do?

“Really we don’t know the ground rules yet,” Ferebee said.

Keene employees haven’t seen a pay raise in three years, and in order to grant a pay raise, Ferebee said he’d need to cut from unmandated programs.

“I’m opposed to the cap,” Ferebee said. “If there was a cap on state mandates, that would be a different story.”

Village of Lake George Mayor Robert Blais

The event is put on by the Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce, with the goal of raising funds for the organization and bringing people in to the town.

The moose is a charismatic animal, said Kanze. Everybody loves the moose, wants to learn about it, wants to see it, he said.

Kanze said Indian Lake is a great destination. Though he's traveled the world, Indian Lake ranks highly as a favorite spot.

He grew up downstate in Westchester County, but he's descended from early Hamilton County settlers.

As a child, he spent a week every year around Indian Lake, and the area holds fond boyhood memories for him. He said he's honored to be invited to judge the competition, and being part of the town's festivities is meaningful and joyful.

Though the state Department of Environmental Conservation puts the moose population at 300 to 500 animals, they're spread around the six million acres of wilderness in the park. Kanze said Indian Lake and its 50,000-acre Moose River Plains are a hot spot, however.

said the cap would require cuts in his budget.

Lake George committed to a $3.1 million improvement to its wastewater treatment plant and pump station, which will eat up a large portion of the upcoming budget.

As a result, the village will have to consider employee layoffs and holding fewer tourist events such as fireworks and park concerts, he said.

The long-tenured mayor supervisor said he was opposed to the tax cap so long as it was not balanced with mandate relief.

Minerva Supervisor Sue Montgomery Corey said the tax cap would require cuts in her town, but she wasn’t sure where in the budget.

“Everything needs to be reviewed,” Montgomery Corey said.

The Minerva supervisor said she thought the idea of managing costs was a good one, but living with a cap without mandate relief is “going to be tough.”

Ticonderoga Supervisor Debra Malaney said cuts were inevitable in her town be-

The comeback of the animals to the Adirondacks shows how the park today is wilder than it was a hundred years ago, said Kanze.

The festival will also offer guided tours, fly-fishing demonstrations, an Adirondack Quilt Show and Sale, Backcountry Safety Program with wilderness tips, an OldFashioned Turkey Shoot, a Moose Scavenger Hunt, sidewalk sales, Logging in the Adirondacks with

cause of the tax cap. She’s asked all departments to find at least 10 percent cuts in their budgets.

“Everything is on the table,” Malaney said.

Still, the Ticonderoga supervisor said she supported the cap, seeing it from the perspective of both a homeowner and a municipal leader.

“People need relief from taxes,” Malaney said. “We need to be able to afford to live here.”

The Ticonderoga supervisor said she wanted to know what a town was supposed to do in the unforseen event infrastructure is broken, and fixing it would put the budget over the cap.

Town of Plattsburgh Supervisor Bernie Bassett said he was optimistic cuts would not be required from his budget as a result of the cap.

“We’re a lean, mean machine,” the Plattsburgh supervisor said. “We operate very frugally.”

Still, he wasn’t certain Plattsburgh would

escape cuts due to the town’s lack of a general tax, and because some of the details of the cap remain unclear.

Bassett had mixed feelings about the cap, saying it represented a “broad-brush” approach.

“The tax cap is there for good purposes,” the Plattsburgh supervisor said. “The motive, the incentive, has merit. The question is ‘Can we do it?’”

While Bassett believes Plattsburgh can, he isn’t so confident about other towns.

Peru Supervisor Peter Glushko said he didn’t think the 2 percent cap was going to represent a hardship for his town.

“We are in no way anticipating that we’re going to exceed that,” Glushko said, adding that taxes have been decreasing or staying level in his town for the past two years.

The Peru supervisor described his position on the tax cap as “qualified support.”

“They have to really start tackling these unfunded mandates that come down,” Glushko said.
