GLENS FALLS — Despite contrary weather that scuttled several launches, the 40th edition of the Adirondack Balloon Festival was a rousing success and well attended, the event’s CEO said soon after it concluded its four day run Sept. 23.

“Thursday’s kickoff event in Crandall Park was the biggest ever and Friday brought the biggest crowd in history to the airport,” he said, referring to the Floyd Bennett Airport in Queensbury where most of the weekend’s events were held.

While persistent wind routinely kept most balloons grounded over many of the scheduled launches, Saturday morning the full contingent of 100-plus balloons took to the air before heavy rain hampered activities Saturday night.

The clear, still air Sunday morning prompted another mass ascension of 50+ balloons, in honor of festival founder Walt Grishkot, who CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Over three decades, a local community event has earned national notoriety.

It’s not merely a matter of its colossal size, its the nature of the beast that consumes Warrensburg for one weekend — no, almost a full week now —

each autumn.

The World’s Largest Garage Sale has set records and launched knock-off events. It’s helped local families cope with winter fuel bills or depleted 401k’s. It’s earned its place in the Guinness Book of Records. Most of all, it’s given Warrensburg a measure of fame.

The event occurs over an extended weekend during which a mass of humanity and vehicles swallow this

The massive event grew out of a local Chamber of Commerce committee formed to devise a way to boost local commerce, Steve Parisi recalled this week. Thirty-three years ago, Parisi and Jane LeCount, until recently a real estate broker, and Gene Magee of Thurman and

peaceful, laid-back town for a frenzy of bargain hunting. Its popularity is unquestionable, considering a swarming mile-long crowd annually browses amongst wares from hundreds of vendors and items at 1,000 or more garage sales in the vicinity.

Merlin Hathaway — founder of Daggett Lake Campgrounds, shared their strategies at a meeting held at Hathaway’s home.

“The idea was to figure out how to get people to stop in Warrensburg on Columbus Day weekend rather than driving right through,” Parisi said, noting suggestions like a kayak race

were shared. “I thought, what do Warrensburg residents really do best, and the thought came to me — a community garage sale — Warrensburg residents don’t ski or kayak — but they love garage sales.”

In 1980, the debut edition was called the “First Annual Street Sale and Flea Market.”

Plant blue & gold for Bicentennial WARRENSBURG — Local residents are urged to plan ahead in an effort to plant blue and gold flowers through town to celebrate Warrensburg’s Bicentennial in 2013.

Requests have been aired by town leaders and representatives of Warrensburgh Beautification for local citizens to plant flowers bearing the town’s signature colors.

Residents are requested to check with local garden centers, and ask them to have these colors available in abundance.

All residents are encouraged to purchase blue and gold flowering bulbs this fall, while municipal employees will be planting blue and gold Spring bulbs to provide a visual kick off of the Bicentennial year.

“Spring flowering bulbs are the answer for an early shot of color, and planted in mass will truly make a statement,” Beautification official Teresa Whalen said. “This fall, don't

Toys at the History Museum WARRENSBURG — Antique toys are now being sought from area residents by the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History in preparation for its holiday exhibit, which runs from Dec. 1 through Jan. 16.

Entitled "Our Toys," the exhibit will feature vintage toys borrowed from members of the community as well as from the museum collection. Anyone willing to lend a favorite toy from their childhood is encouraged to submit it to the Museum personnel.

The museum is looking for such toys as erector sets, trains, Lincoln Logs, cars & trucks, dreidels, letter blocks, board games, etc. The older the better, and "well-played-with" condition is okay.

For a submission form, contact Delbert Chambers at 6233514 or: whs7396@yahoo.com. Deadline for submissions is Nov. 15, but earlier would be helpful. The toys will be re-

Assembly candidates offer differing views at Queensbury High School debate Sept. 25 thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Facing off in a political debate, state Assembly candidates Dan Stec and Dennis Tarantino both contended Tuesday, Sept. 25 they will best represent the voters of the 114th Assembly District.

Stec is the Republican candidate and supervisor of the town of Queensbury, and Tarantino is the Democratic candidate, employed as an attorney in Glens Falls.

The forum, sponsored by the Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce, was held in Queensbury High School.

While both agreed that economic expansion and job creation was a primary legislative concern, the two offered opposing views on several issues including hiking the minimum wage.

Stec said increasing the minimum wage would throttle economic expansion and put people out of work. “The economy is fragile, and New York has the nextto-worst business climate,� he said. “Business owners say raising the minimum wage would do more harm

for advancing legislation.

Stec cited his years of service as Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors, working effectively with both Democrats and fellow Republicans.

Tarantino said if elected, he’d establish an association of North Country state legislators, meeting regularly to discuss issues and reach a consensus.

Stec identified his top legislative priorities as shrinking the cost of state government, promoting economic development, improving infrastructure — highways and bridges as well as broadband access — as well as rolling back unfunded mandates that now stifle small businesses as well as local government.

Tarantino said he sought to curb excessive governmental regulations and unfunded mandates, boost the North Country economy, bolster environmental pro-

tection, promote tourism and work to consolidate the state’s 108 agencies.

Stec called for the state to call a halt to its land purchases in the Adirondacks, a statement that prompted loud cheers from the audience of about 400. He said that the $50 million in state Environmental Protection fund money now earmarked for acquiring 69,000 acres of forest land in southern Essex County ought to be spent on curbing invasive species in Lake George.

Tarantino indicated support for the pending purchase. “There’s another side to this issue,� citing that the supervisors of the towns of North Hudson and Newcomb both supported the transaction that has been advanced by Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Both said that attending to the needs of U.S. veterans was of primary importance.

than good and cause layoffs.�

But Tarantino said he supported an increase, saying that it would spur economic activity, raise workers’ standard of living, and reduce public assistance payments. “I strongly advocate raising the minimum wage,� he said, noting that it is now is barely above the federal poverty level. “An increase is not going to cost jobs, and it’s the right thing to do for low-income families — working people need the raise.�

Tarantino said he was seeking the Assembly post because he wanted to advance the progress made during the Cuomo administration. As a member of the majority, Tarantino said he’d collaborate with fellow Democrats and steer more state money now spent downstate to address upstate issues. “I want to see that we in the North Country get our fair share,� he said.

Both said they were dedicated to get things accomplished in a bipartisan manner.

Tarantino said he had years of experience in compromise, a necessary skill

Citizens pitch ideas to boost commerce, jobs in Warrensburg

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — A group of local residents have proposed ideas and pledged to take action to boost commerce and create jobs in town.

Members of the Warrensburg Economic Development Committee recently shared a variety of ideas and set a course of action.

The group proposed to explore establishing incentives to prompt new businesses to fill vacant storefronts; and to become a resource for both existing and new businesses to help them meet challenges, obtain financing and deal with regulatory hurdles.

Also, the group said they wanted to look into pursuing development of mass transit

solutions; to encourage buying local products to keep money circulating in the community; as well as promote development of sustainable, environmentally compatible industries — in conjunction with healthy lifestyles.

Warrensburg town board and school board member Linda Baker Marcella, who established the committee on behalf of the town, said that development of local “green” industry would provide jobs that would entice young adults into staying in their hometown, keeping local families intact. She said that she’s heard that a wide variety of generous grants and low-interest loans are available for establishing enterprises that are involved with data processing and technology.

Marcella told the Warrensburg Town Board Sept. 12 that the Warrensburg Economic Development Committee members are working to become well-informed about such opportunities and resources, so they can help launch and expand jobs opportunities that will keep local people employed here.

Marcella also said the group intends to help either existing or prospective businesses line up a qualified workforce, by getting training courses established in local schools to focus on needed specific technological skills.

The group members have pledged to take specific steps toward their goals, including drafting a plan for a Buy Local program; holding a Warrensburg Fall Business Forum

to hear specific local concerns; and researching economic development programs of other similar communities, she said.

Marcella said she was enthusiastic about the ideas raised and the volunteers on the committee. It includes two bankers, Marcella Towers and Dennis Martinez; town code enforcement officer Chris Belden; town supervisor Kevin Geraghty; town historian Sandi Parisi; citizens Ruth Fruda, Vicki Shelden and Anna Busser; and municipal executive Mike Mender, who has served as assistant mayor of Glens Falls for several administrations, Marcella said.

“These are all people who believe in Warrensburg and are committed to economic development and creating new local jobs,” she said.

Burghers stun Salem with final power drive in football game

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — With sheer guts and determination, the Warrensburg football players engineered a game-ending 78-yard drive — and a dramatic comeback win — Saturday Sept. 22 against Salem.

And it was the players themselves who determined how to accomplish it, coach Mike Leonbruno said.

With time expiring on the clock and nearly 80 yards to go downfield, Leonbruno called for the team to run the ball outside so the squad could perhaps pick up more than 3 to 4 yards per carry through the congested middle — the team’s signature play this year. The team’s core players, however, asked to stick to grinding it out up the middle, Leonbruno said.

“I let them go with it, and that’s what took us down the field for the touchdown,” he said, noting their 14-play, 78 yard drive that ended up in a touchdown. “I am extremely proud of them.”

Sophomore Quarterback Marcus Perrone punched it over the goal line in a three-yard run with only 27 seconds on the clock. Colt Ovitt then added on the game-winning two-point conversion run so his team beat Salem 14 to 13.

Warrensburg’s earlier touchdown came in the second quarter, when Marcus Perrone tossed a well-aimed pass to Sophomore tight end Shea Irish, who grabbed the ball for a

22-yard gain.

Leonbruno is quite aware of a new determination, enthusiasm, and confidence in his players — first noted by Burgher fans when the team crushed Bishop Gibbons a week earlier, 64 to 18 to break various recent-history scoring records at Warrensburg High.

He said that his players applied their confidence and determination at about 8 minutes left in Saturday’s game when Salem scored their final touchdown, and the Burghers fumbled — and the contest seemed to be mired in the ailment that’s been plaguing the Burghers for years: turnovers.

Unlike in prior similar situations, the players didn’t give up hope, Leonbruno said.

“That is when we would have crumbled, but they stayed tough and proved themselves,” Leonbruno said. “It was very exciting.”

Rather than let the powerful Salem team put the game out of reach, the Burghers gutted it out, with their defense regaining the ball on their own 22-yard-line with Salem unable to make a first down to get into the Burgher red zone.

That’s when the Burghers accomplished their final grindit-out drive for the win.

It wasn’t easy, however, to get to that last-chance effort.

Warrensburg had suffered three fumbles. Worse, they allowed Salem to gain a quick score early in the game when one of Salem’s linebackers blocked a punt and fell on the ball in the end zone for their debut touchdown.

“To come back like they did, our players showed grit and confidence,” Leonbruno said, vowing to redouble instruction on skills that might avoid such frequent turnovers.

The Burgher linemen had their job cut out for them Saturday, because Salem was big, fast, strong and physical.

They proved themselves, however, by keeping Salem’s potent offense in check, or mowing down opponents so their talented runningbacks — as light as 134 pounds — could move downfield.

Leonbruno said that his team’s power plays through the middle have their advantage — they not only move the ball downfield, they wear the opponent’s defense down, which opens up scoring opportunities, he said.

Not only was the Burgher line effective in their blocking, but the offensive proved their depth. Malachai Prosser led the Burgher rushers with 101 yards on 20 carries, followed

by Nolan Maltbie with 31 yards on 7 plays, and Connor Scott with 25 yards on four carries. Ovitt tallied 14 yards on four plays.

Although the team earns credit for ground-gaining, Perrone completed four of five passes for 96 yards. Prosser hit two of three for 50 yards.

Also key in the effort was the Burgher defense, which Leonbruno said has improved lately.

“I’ve been trying to get the kids to tackle lower, and they’re doing it — they tackled well against Salem,” he said.

“The game was an awesome effort.”

Chestertown Car Hop deemed a success by Business Alliance Business Alliance notes CHESTERTOWN — Organizers of the Car Hop held recently in Chestertown say the event was a great success with about 120 people turning out to enjoy the vintage vehicles and $120 raised on the 50-50 raffle.

Seventeen cars participated in the car show on the grounds of Panther Mountain Inn, whose proprietor Don Butler donated the trophies. Winning first place was Holly Palmer and her 1962 Chevy Impala SS, 2nd Place, Chris Marinelli's 1966 Chevy Chevelle, 3rd Place: Mike Smith's 71 Dodge Demon, and 4th Place: Mike D'Angelico's 1967 Olds Delmont.

Prime rib dinners were offered and the cars rode up to the Pine Tree Motel as well as taking a few laps up and down Main Street. The last Car Hop of the season is to be held Oct. 19 and Gallo Realty will be donating the trophies.

The Tin Tepee Campground is sponsoring a Toys for Tots

ATV poker run on Oct. 13. Entry fee is $10 and everyone is asked to bring a new unwrapped gift. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and there are various trails and stations set up as destinations where participating ATV riders can obtain cards for their poker hand. For details, contact Tin Tepee at 494-5555 or through the web page www.toysfortots.com.

The Tri-lakes Business Alliance officials have noted that plans are progressing well for their Main Street Garage Sale event, set for Oct. 6 and 7 Garnet Signs has donated a banner which is hanging on the fence in front of the Chamber of Commerce to promote the sale, and about a dozen individuals have reserved their free spaces in the Glens Falls National Bank parking lot as well as Tri-Lakes Storage. As of Friday, Sept. 21, nine individuals signed up for their home-based sales to be depicted

on the map. The sale will be run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Winter is approaching and Alliance representatives will again be attending the Chester Town Board meetings to advocate possible re-opening of Theriot Ave — keeping a small lane unplowed — and leaving the east sidewalk on Main St. through town unplowed to allow direct access for snowmobiles from the Rte 8 and Rte. 9 traffic signal. Alliance members have noted that such easier access into downtown by snowmobilers would be a huge benefit to all restaurants and retail stores on Main St. The next Town Board meeting is at 7 p.m. Oct. 9. it was announced that Brandon Himoff developed a Facebook page for the Alliance, and all everyone is invited to sign on and “Like” the group, which has its next meeting at 9 a.m. Friday, Oct. 5 at the Panther Mountain Inn.

Adirondack Journal Editorial

Don’t miss Museum Day opportunity “We don’t have the money” is one of the biggest reasons we hear from people who don’t visit museums. And with the price of gas and some admission fees, we can understand. But this weekend, you can’t use that excuse.

More than 1,400 museums throughout the U.S. are taking part in the Smithsonian magazine’s Museum Day Live! event on Saturday, Sept. 29, and there is a participating museum located within a two-hour drive for most of our readers. The admission is free.

There is one hitch; you have to present an online ticket at the museum. Tickets can be obtained from filling out a request on the magazine’s website, www.smithsonianmag.com. You will then be sent an electronic ticket for two (by email), which you have to print. Only one ticket per household and email address is permitted, and you have to specify which museum you will be visiting, as it will be printed on the ticket.

We are happy to report that the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake and the Lake Placid Olympic Museum are participating in Museum Day Live!

Unfortunately, there are a number of great museums in the region that are not participating, and that concerns us.

By all accounts, Museum Day Live! is a successful program, according to Smithsonian officials, who say it encourages learning and the spread of knowledge nationwide. The event emulates the free-admission policy of all the Smithsonian Institution’s museums in Washington, D.C. and it fulfills Smithsonian Media’s mission to make cultural education accessible to everyone.

In 2011, more than 350,000 museum goers took advantage of this opportunity, and more than 400,000 people are expected to participate in 2012.

Those going to Blue Mountain Lake are in luck, as Museum Day Live! falls on the same day as the Adirondack Museum’s Fall Festival.

As museums continue to struggle financially, some facilities are faced with the possibility of closure, and that reality gets us thinking about the value of museums

September 29, 2012

and why it’s important to support them.

Officials at the North Creek Depot Museum, for example, say they could not stay open without the financial support from the town of Johnsburg. The town’s annual subsidy of the museum was recently questioned, and hearts sank among the museum’s managers when faced with the thought of a reduction or elimination of town taxpayer money for operations.

Why even have a museum? Although museums attract tourists and therefore help the local economy, that’s not really why they’re important.

Museums define us. They create a sense of place by interpreting our history. Furthermore, they tell us where we’ve come from and, because most things in life come in cycles, they tell us where we’re going.

Through artifacts, museums tell our story. That connection between the past and the present is educational, yes, but it’s also something we need as human beings.

We are social creatures, but we don’t sit around campfires anymore handing down stories from generation to generation as our early ancestors did. For the most part, history is no longer communicated through the oral tradition; it is a function of society handled by museums.

For this reason, we’d like to see all museums in the Adirondack region sign up with the Smithsonian as a partner and offer free admission to their museums during the 2013 Museum Day Live!

Although museums will see their proceeds from admission fees fall on Saturday, one day couldn’t possibly hurt their bottom line. It may indeed help, as people spend more money in the gift shops and food counters.

And it’s a great promotional tool. As the Adirondack Museum and the Lake Placid Olympic Museum will undoubtedly find out this year, Museum Day Live! is a great opportunity to get some free publicity.

This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Shaun Kittle, Keith Lobdell, Stephen Bartlett, Andy Flynn, Katherine Clark and John Gereau.

Accountability check up

A

few weeks ago I suggested readers continue to check out sites like Factcheck.org and OpenSecrets.org so they could balance out the facts from the over-exaggerated spin that all political candidates seem compelled to use. Several readers asked that I periodically use this column to check in on the presidential candidates and provide an update to see who is saying what and how accurate the claims being made are.

Prior to the upcoming October head-tohead debates, the candidates are crisscrossing the country providing their standard stump speeches. Here’s what Factcheck.org has to say about the two candidate’s stump spins: President Obama correctly states that manufacturing jobs have increased by more than half a million since hitting bottom, but he fails to mention that the number regained is less than half the total lost since he took office. The president claims that “renewable” energy production has doubled on his watch, which isn’t true (only wind and solar have doubled). He also claims he’d increase the tax rate on high-income earners to no more than they paid under Bill Clinton, when the truth is they’d pay more because of new taxes imposed to pay for the Affordable Health Care Act. He says “independent analysis” validates that his plan would cut $4 trillion from the deficit. But that total is inflated by $1 trillion in “savings” from winding down wars that he has promised to end anyway. He accuses Romney of proposing to raise taxes by $2,000 on middle-income taxpayers, when Romney has clearly stated that he wouldn’t do any such thing. He attacks Romney’s plan for Medicare as a “voucher” system that would leave seniors “at the mercy of insurance companies,” when the fact is, it’s structured the same as the system Obama’s health care law sets up for subsidizing private insurance for persons under age 65.

In turn Governor Romney says the president “said by now (unemployment) would be down to 5.4 percent.” But Romney is referring to a speculative report issued at the beginning of Obama’s presidency containing projections — not promises. Those projections relied on prevailing economic models that quickly proved to have underestimated the depths of the recession at that time. Romney says median family income dropped $5,000 under Obama. That’s an exaggeration. The true loss of inflationadjusted, median family income was $3,290

during Obama’s first three years.

Romney’s figure is based on a report that covers a period that inDan Alexander cludes 13 months Thoughts from before Obama Behind the Pressline took office. Romney says health insurance premiums have gone up $2,500 under Obama. The actual increase has been $1,700, most of which was absorbed by employers and only a small part of which is attributable to the health care law. Romney blames Obama for the cost of gasoline doubling, but that’s misleading. Gasoline prices happened to be unusually low when Obama took office due to the recession and financial crisis. Romney said Obama “cut Medicare by $716 billion to pay for Obamacare,” but these cuts in the future growth of spending prolong the life of the Medicare trust fund, stretching the program’s finances out longer than they would last otherwise.

As the campaigns continue to churn I wonder if, as a nation, we don’t need to rethink a two-term presidency and instead opt for a single six-year term. This president, who is at his best when campaigning, appears to have abandoned his full-time job as president, instead favoring fund raising events and campaign speeches. In my lifetime I’ve not seen any successful second terms. The president has an important job to do and growing our economy, controlling spending and the situation in the Middle East demand far more attention than he is giving them. The assassination of our ambassador and three other Americans, and the failure to quickly recognize and respond to the terrorist attack on our embassy clearly shows where his priorities lie.

Instead of defending the Constitution and this country, as he is sworn to do as president, I think his actions are sending the wrong message to radicals who wish serious harm to our nation. He has far harsher words for his opponent than for those burning our flag. We expect our president to be focused on governing, not campaigning. I think the country would be far better off if our president spent more time worrying about the nation’s business and less time about their legacy, which seems to dominate their second terms.

•100 Years Ago - Sept. 1912•

Thurman station burglarized The Delaware and Hudson railroad station at Thurman was burglarized the Saturday night Sept. 21, 1912 and $26, mostly in silver, was stolen. “Dick” Baker, a well known Thurman character, was arrested Monday for the crime and he is now in the county jail at Lake George to await the action of the Grand Jury.

Station agent L.T. Spencer, contrary to his usual custom, left the change he had on hand in the station on Saturday night. He went after it Sunday morning and found it gone. A broken window with a ladder leaning against the building on the outside showed where the thief had entered.

Baker went into a store in Thurman on Sunday to make a purchase and boastfully exhibited considerable silver money. Learning of this Spencer prompted his arrest.

Sheriff Smith and a D.&H. detective took him in charge and to them he confessed the crime. He was charged with burglary in the third degree. Dick Baker, about 30 , has served one term in Dannemora Prison for the same crime.

Hotels engulfed in flames one of the most popular summer hotels in the region, the Friends Lake House, near Chestertown, was destroyed by fire Saturday afternoon, Sept. 21, 1912. The property, owned and conducted by Daniel J. Murphy, was valued at $10,000 and insured for $3,500.

The fire broke out at 3 p.m. in a room in the second story of the building and spread rapidly. The neighbors quickly rallied to the rescue and joined the hotel force in fighting the flames but with little effect. The Chestertown Fire Department rushed in their chemical engine as soon as possible but arrived too late to be of any use. Twelve hotel guests got out safely but little of the hotel furnish-

ings was saved.

The house had accommodations for 100 guests and was in the process of closing up a very successful season. The hotel will be rebuilt this winter in time for the opening of the 1913 season.

Yet another blaze occurred at the Agawam, a summer hotel at Diamond Point owned by Warren Middleworth of Hudson Falls. It was destroyed by fire the night of Sept. 30, 1912, entailing a loss of $15,000.

Part of the furniture was saved and when help arrived the heat was so intense that nobody could enter the building. The only occupants at the time of the fire were Mr. and Mrs. Middleworth and their son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Middleworth, visiting from California. There are no plans to rebuild the hotel.

In other hotel news, the Hotel Uncas, a popular summer resort near Silver Bay on Lake George, was sold recently to Dr. James Burtt of New York City who will make extensive improvements.

Japanese duo’s double suicide The double funeral of General Count Maresuke Nogi, Supreme Military Councilor of Japan and his wife, the Countess Nogi, was held with impressive ceremonies at the Aoyama Cemetery in the presence of enormous crowds.

The Count and Countess had ended their lives by stabbing themselves with a sword on the night of Sept. 13, 1912 as the body of the late Emperor Mutsuhito passed out of Tokyo on its way to the imperial tomb at Momoyama. The body of Japan’s great war general was borne on a gun carriage while the casket containing the body of the Countess was in a hearse.

Teetotaler sounds off It is a well-known fact that the drinking of intoxicating liquors is responsible for a large percentage of the crime committed in our land and is the direct cause of the broken

History tour’s detour enjoyed On Sept. 15, the John Thurman Historical Society hosted an educational guided tour of historic homes and properties in Thurman, an annual event for 19 years.

The tour, titled "A Guided Jaunt into Homes and History," began with an informal luncheon at the Town Hall with guests sitting down to a home-cooked meal of soup, dinner rolls and a beverage.

A trolley transported many of the attendees, while others drove. In-depth visits were conducted to four sites including the Griffing Farm on Rte. 418 — with special focus on its years as the Russell Boarding house. During that visit, Ann and Al Rohe were very hospitable, offering guests to help themselves to their delicious Concord grapes, -which were delicious. The Rohe’s hospitality was so overwhelming that the tour organizers forgot a visit to the adjacent Griffing Cemetery. Buyce Farm on Buyce Road was also on the tour.

Myrtle Buyce still lives on the old farm, however she no longer farms the property. Myrtle is a very sweet lady and she welcomed tour participants into her home.

The next stop was the former Chalet Francais on Combs Road, which has served as a farmhouse, a guest ranch, a four-star restaurant, an abbey, and now is the private home of Randall Oppitz. After visiting the Chalet Francais, the trolley driver was relieved of his duties and many guests drove down to visit the Griffing Cemetery. It was an enjoyable day trip.

Those who have a historic site they’d like on a future tour, call Joan Harris at 623-2007 or Perky Granger at 623-9305.

Stay healthy, take a self-exam October is designated as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and since its inception more than 25 years ago, the annual event has been vital in promoting awareness of breast cancer issues.

Women are urged to take their health into their own hands and conduct a breast self-exam monthly, ideally on the same day of each month. Many women may not know that a mammogram is now recommended once at the age of 35 and every two years after the age of 40, unless an abnormality is detected — if so, every year after it was first detected.

Here’s a reminder for our adult female readers to conduct a self-exam, and loved ones can ask their female partners if they have indeed performed one. Incidentally, it’s not just women who can get breast cancer — men can as well.

Fall Farm Tour coming up The Thurman Fall Farm Tour is approaching, and many Thurman residents may be surprised by all there is to see and do in Thurman.

This celebration of local rural culture, set for Saturday Oct. 6 and Sunday Oct. 7, features sugarhouse tours, a craft show,

hearts of thousands of wives and mothers — besides figuring largely as a factor in our divorce courts and absolutely wrecking the lives of multitudes of men. We should surely not believe that Jesus Christ, were He on earth today, would advocate the placing of intoxicants within convenient and easy reach of the people whom he died to save.

How can we pray “Lead Us Not Into Temptation” while by our own volition we make it practically impossible for many of our fellow men to resist temptation? — Pastor Frank M. LaMar, Minerva.

Little boy gone to Heaven James Gerald McCloskey, 2 , died Sept. 14, 1912 at Schroon Lake after an illness of only a few days. He was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. James P. McCloskey and was of a bright, loving disposition who won the hearts of all who knew him. So full of happiness and sunshine, he will long be remembered by all who had ever met the cheery little fellow.

The small white casket was covered with many wreaths and bouquets of flowers from the many friends of his family and in his hand were a few of the wild flowers little Gerald had been especially fond of in his short life. He was buried Sept. 16, 1912 in the family plot at Schroon Lake. “Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep, from which none ever wake to weep.”

Citizen passes away William Needham, 57, died after several weeks duration of an illness of liver and heart trouble on the morning of Sept. 26, 1912 at 5 o’clock at his home on Hoag Avenue, Warrensburgh. He leaves a widow and one son, Orlin (“Orlie”) Needham of Thurman, three brothers, Leroy, Clarence and Charles Needham, and three sisters, Mrs. Orrin Perkins, Mrs. John Corbett and Mrs. William Mosher.

Looking backward from 1912

1787 that the Caldwell (now Lake George) patent was granted. (Note: James Caldwell, an Albany merchant, purchased the patent from Udney Hay for 1,595 acres at the southwestern end of Lake George which made him at that time the area’s chief landowner. By 1810 he owned 7,000 acres covering most of the land at the head of Lake George. He died in 1829.) It was 38 years ago, Sept. 26, 1874 that the cornerstone of the Sacred Heart Church in Lake George was laid.

News roundabout The Democratic State Convention in session at Syracuse nominated William Sulzer, representative in Congress from New York City, for governor and Martin H. Glynn of Albany for Lieutenant governor. Present governor John A. Dix was turned down for re-election.

A petition asking for the appointment of a committee to examine into the competency of Ella Flansburgh of the Town of Thurman was granted by County Judge George S. Raley at a session of County Court.

Harry Floyd and Miss Julia Haff, both of Adirondack, were married by the Rev. L.T. Cole on Sept. 18, 1912 at the Methodist Episcopal Church in Chestertown.

Mrs. John Ferris died at her home in North Chester after an illness of several months, during which she bore her sufferings with rare patience and fortitude. She is survived by her husband whose faithful companion she has been for many long years.

C.H. Glassbrook, proprietor of the Warrensburgh-Chestertown stage line, has purchased an automobile stage for his route, a 16-passenger Stanley Steamer, exactly like the one on the Warrensburgh-Thurman route. It will make two trips daily.

Mrs. Lawrence Pratt and Mrs. Thomas Maloney picked in a field near the McGann farm on Horicon Avenue, Warrensburgh enough raspberries to make them each a pie.

This is remarkable for this time of year.

O’Neill secures Primary win in Stony Creek town board race

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com STONY CREEK — Special ballots counted last week confirmed John F. O’Neill’s win over John Fieldstadt in a recent Primary election to determine the Republican candidate for Stony Creek Town Board.

Eleven absentee ballots and one affidavit ballot widened O’Neill’s margin of victory in the G.O.P. primary.

The machine vote announced on election night tallied 34-27 favoring O’Neill, and on Sept. 20, the margin grew to 42-31.

After the paper ballots were counted,

O’Neill said he was happy with the voter support.

“This definitely was a nail-biter,” he said while on duty at the Thurman emergency squad headquarters. “It’s too early for a victory dance, but I’m excited about the November election — and now I’ve got to hit the campaign trail.”

O’Neill said that between now and the November election, he’d be gathering input from local citizens.

“I intend to get a feel for what the voters are looking for and what direction the town of Stony Creek wants to go in — and I’ll be going forward from there,” he said.

O'Neill serves on three area emergency re-

sponder agencies in northern Warren County — in the towns of Thurman, Warrensburg, and his hometown of Stony Creek. He graduated from Hadley-Luzerne High School.

O’Neill serves as vice president of the Stony Creek Volunteer Fire Co. & Rescue Squad, and he is assistant captain of Thurman Emergency Medical Services.

Among O’Neill’s objectives, if elected, are pursuing creative ways to boost local tourism and commerce, assisting in the completion of a local trail system, and establishing new snowmobile trails displaced by the resumption of train traffic over the county railroad tracks.

O’Neill, 26, is the son of John T. O'Neill, a

renowned country singer/guitarist who served the town as supervisor for about a quarter century until his death in 2003.

In the November general election, O’Neill faces John Thomas, who is running on an independent ticket for an unexpired term on the town board.

The candidates are running for a seat last held by William Liebl, who retired in June due to health issues. He served on the Stony Creek Town Board for about two decades.

The November election is for a one-year term on the board. In 2013, the board seat will again be subject to an election.

Lake George Rotary Club helps Mito Hope and Help WARRENSBURG — One of Mito Hope and Help’s latest fundraising endeavors involved helping the Lake George Rotary Club with its annual Americade raffle ticket sales.

In return, Mito Hope and Help received a generous donation of $500 from the Lake George Rotary Club.

Mito Hope and Help is a local non profit sponsored program of NYSARC Inc., Warren Washington Counties Chapters. Catherine LaFond-Evans founded the organization in the memory of her daughter, Randi Evans, September 2010.

At its website, www.mitohopeandhelp.com, the group informs visitors of important Mito issues as well as offer support and advocacy to our local Mito community. They continually strive to make Randi’s dream a reality. Randi envisioned a day when Mito patients, of all ages, have the appropriate medical care and support services which is so desperately needed! “Mito” is an abbreviation for mitochondrial diseases. There is no cure for these poorly understood, complex, progressive and incurable diseases affecting hundreds in northeastern New York alone. Complicating matters, there are very few doctors trained who are capable of recognizing, diagnosing and caring for those with Mito. Therefore, many individuals are misdiagnosed or go undiagnosed for years.

One in 4,000 individuals have a mitochondrial disease. There are various forms of the

Under new owners, Lazy River Farms makes changes

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Considering the response from the public over several months of new ownership, Lazy River Farms Garden Center is facing a promising future, the enterprise’s general manager Katie Galusha said Sept. 7.

“In May and June, we were slammed,” she said. “People enjoy our services and inventory as well as our expanded hours.”

The business, bought from Tom Hughes in February, is now owned by Dan and Pat Galusha and Tom Longe. It reopened in early May, and since then has been received with enthusiasm by area residents, Katie Galusha said.

The business is located at 3620 state Rte. 9 between Warrensburg McDonald’s and the Mobil station, in Lake George just south of the Warrensburg town line.

The enterprise is offering a wide variety of shrubs, landscaping plants and trees, as well as seasonal flowers, she said.

Lazy River Farm’s resident horticulturist, Veronica Ross, is on hand to help area citizens solve gardening and landscaping dilemmas. Ross has deep experience in her field, including employment at the Bronx Zoo as a horticulturist.

Lazy River Farms’ inventory now includes landscaping statues and sculptures, clay pots, solar lighting, terrariums, maple syrup, and some garden supplies including mulch.

Over the past several months, they’ve been offering a wide variety of perennials, annuals and hanging floral baskets.

The enterprise has a commitment to high-quality plants, and this has prompted the Lazy River staff to grow a substantial amount on their own, Galusha said, noting they planted 2,440 hardy mums this year.

Next year, Lazy River may be expanding their offerings to

In several weeks, the enterprise will be bringing back a popular attraction that won the hearts of so many people over a decade ago – a haunted house located in the old barn on their riverside property. The attraction will be open in the weeks leading up to Halloween, Galusha said.

Hudson Headwaters honors three philanthropists

By Shaun Kittle

shaun@denpubs.com BRANT LAKE — The Hudson Headwaters Health Network held its seventh annual Community Champions dinner Sept. 9 at Point O’Pines on Brant Lake.

The dinner raised money to support HHHN, and honored three people — Carl Lamm of Chester and Elise and Woody Widlund of North Creek — for making a difference in their communitys.

Lamm founded the Helper ’s Fund in September 1997.

Since then, the fund has helped more than 200 families and individuals experiencing difficult times in the Tri-Lakes area of Warren and Essex counties cover expenses for things like heating bills, clothing and medical assistance.

“The Helper ’s Fund tends to be low key,” said Howard Nelson, executive director of HHHN. “They very quietly go in and help people out.”

The banquet also honored Elise and William Widlund,

who designed, built and donated the Tannery Pond Community Center to Johnsburg in 2002.

The community center has since become one of the premier landmarks in the community and is host to educational programs, art exhibitions and stage performances.

In 2008, the couple also renovated a house in North River and donated it to the Adirondack Community Trust and in 2011, the Widlunds established a donor-advised endowment trust at ACT, the Samwise Fund, to perpetuate their philanthropy.

The Hudson Headwaters Health Network Foundation will be a benefactor of that fund.

The HHHN began in 1981 and now has 15 health centers around the region, from Champlain to Moreau.

Combined, the centers help more than 60,000 people a year who cannot otherwise get the health care they need.

There were more than 300 people at the banquet, which raised more than $100,000 to support the community health network.

Partners Bobby O’Leary & entrepreneur and IndyCar Series team owner Mike Lanigan have brought their antique company to town to level the playing field.

Everyone says they pay the highest price, there’s only one way you can be sure, check everybody else out first then come to Tiquehunter Antiques, and then you’ll know.

Owens, Doheny spar in congressional debate

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — In a public political showdown, U.S. Rep. Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh) and G.O.P. challenger Matt Doheny clashed over issues of health care, Social Security reform and labor-union organizing.

The two offered a variety of conflicting views during a debate held Tuesday Sept. 25 at Queensbury High School, just weeks before they face off in the November general election to represent the new 21st Congressional District.

About 400 people attended the debate, many of them voicing cheers or jeers — particularly over the national Affordable Health Care Act, also dubbed “Obamacare.”

Doheny said he opposed the Employee Free Choice Act, commonly known as “cardcheck,” which deletes a present a requirement for secret balloting in union organizing or recruiting.

He said that enactment of the legislation would crimp job creation and hamper small business growth.

“I have a deep belief in freedom and fairness,” Doheny said. “Secret ballots are a fundamental American principle.

Owens said he supported card check because it aided wage earners in their quest for fair pay and decent work conditions.

“Seventy percent of the economy is consumer purchasing, and I support the middle class,” he said.

Both said bolstering the economy was their prime objective, but they differed on ways of achieving that goal. While Doheny focused on easing regulations and taxes on entrepreneurs to create new jobs, Owens countered that there were 3,000 unfilled job positions in the region that required skills that applicants don’t now possess.

Owens said he was working with workforce investment boards and private groups to make appropriate training available so thousands of area residents could take on these positions — and boost the economy.

“My focus is clearly on getting those jobs

filled,” he said, noting that workers needed new skills to operate computer-driven manufacturing equipment.

In response, Doheny said that easing regulations now crimping small businesses would allow them to become more competitive and allow expansion — and result in job creation. He said he personally toured more than 100 businesses this summer, and most all the entrepreneurs told him that rolling back regulations was critical to their survival or expansion.

“I’ve heard from the business owners that Washington has run amuck with regulations,” he said, noting he supported the Regulatory Freeze for Jobs Act, which makes it more difficult for government to impose new regulations that have a negative impact of more than $100 million on the economy.

Owens voted against the measure, Doheny noted.

“Excessive regulation slows down job growth and kills the spirit of those who create jobs,” he said.

Owens countered that he indeed supported reducing needless regulations.

Health care legislation was the most contentious issue of the debate, one of a series of three to be held for the candidates before Election Day. “If elected, I will work to repeal and replace Obamacare,” Doheny said, prompting a chorus of simultaneous boos and cheers from the crowd. Owens voted for the Act in 2010.

Doheny said the legislation was expensive, would prompt employers to opt out of employee insurance plans, and put the power of health care into the hands of the national Independent Payment Advisory Board — while not addressing the issue of tort reform, which he said would reduce health care costs.

“Obamacare allows 15 unelected people to have complete power over our health care, and this is unconstitutional and I won’t stand for it,” Doheny said.

He also criticized the Affordable Care Act for its pending provision to impose a 2.3

izens live, and it cannot be tampered with.”

Owens added that for a high percentage of elderly in our region, Social Security provides their main source of income.

“I want to make sure any changes are focused on the needs of the people,” he said.

Doheny responded that without major reform, Social Security would be insolvent in 22 to 25 years.

“We can’t put our heads in the sand and pretend that the problems will go away,” he said, citing that age and earnings eligibility rules would have to change to protect the system.

Green Party candidate Donald Hassig of Colton also participated in the debate. He said he supported a raise in Social Security benefits to a floor of $1,500 per month, advocated government-supported free health care and free education for all. He also said he opposed corporate farming, stronger environmental protection.

Hassig also urged withdrawal from the World Trade organization, an action he said would create 30 million new jobs for Americans, reducing unemployment to zero percent.

percent excise tax on the revenue of medical device manufacturers, a major employer in the region.

Owens countered that he favored amending the Affordable Care Act rather than repealing it. He said it was vital to protect the health of citizens — by forcing insurance companies to provide coverage for pre-existing conditions, by extending coverage for college students up to age 26 under their parents’ health plans, and by banning insurance companies from cancelling insurance of those who are ill.

“If the Affordable Care Act is replaced, any new legislation must address these issues,” Owens said.

The candidates also sparred on Social Security reform.

Owens said he didn’t agree with Doheny’s intent to make Social Security solvent by raising the full eligibility age from 66 to 67, or eliminating benefits to the wealthy, or shifting Social Security payments into private retirement investment accounts.

“Attempts to privatize Social Security are very concerning,” Owens said. “Social Security is the floor upon which many of our cit-

A day with dog and gun, rod or rifle

This nice bull moose was recently discovered feeding along the banks of the Ausable River, in the late afternoon. Moose are currently paired as they approach the peak of their annual breeding. Both moose, and moose calls have become a rather common occurrence across the Adirondacks in recent years.

ecent weather patterns have finally begun to exhibit a distinctly autumnal turn, the pace of life has begun to slow down, following a rather extended and tiresome, tourist season. The expected influx of leaf peppers will surely flood into the region over the next few weeks, just as the annual Big Game Hunting Season begins to unfold.

It is that time of year again, when sportsmen and women are challenged to decide what to do, as there are simply too many options with trout and salmon beginning the spawn, as whitetails and black bear are lurking in the forests and birds are migrating overhead.

It is a time that makes sportsmen and women smile as the woods begin to take on a fiery glow. It’s a time when we return to our roots and game animals become nervous.

Soon pickup trucks will again line the back roads and camo caps and buffalo plaid jackets will again be the primary fashion of the forest. Big Buck Contests will be the lottery of the day, and the question, “Didja git yur’s yet?” will serve as a common greeting, whether at church, the local Post Office or the grocery store.

Over the next few weeks, good friends will gather in old cabins to tell even older stories as part of a process of sharing a sporting tradition that spans generations. Time will slow down, darkness will come early and sleep will come easy. For outdoor enthusiasts, it simply can’t arrive soon enough.

Autumn is the time when a true freedom of the hills becomes most apparent. Although it represents but a small segment of the calendar year, the fall is a timeframe when the woods become a domain inhabited primarily by the locals.

While the hikers, bikers and paddlers will still be out in force, the locals will continue to take to the woods in ever increasing numbers.

Rifles and packbaskets that have been handed down from father to son to grandson will be slung upon a new set of shoulders. These tools of the trade will travel along the well worn trails, and through the same swamps over which they have passed for generations.

Undeniably, the sporting life is the common glue that continues to bind the far netherlands of the park together. It is an undeniable heritage that links all of the user groups together in a

The term "camp" has been used to describe a wide variety of woodland structures ranging from the most luxurious to the rustic and not quite elegant. Regardless of shape or size, all camps are designed with a common thread, to provide a simple shelter where we can go to escape the confines and conveniences of modern culture and it confounding conformities.

shared passion for outdoor adventure.

Despite the park’s widely diverse interest groups, it is a common love of the land that continues to link all woodland wanderers with an historic lineage of hunters and gatherers.

We must learn to accept the fact that we share a common, predatory heredity, and despite our various woodland pursuits; we are all linked by a shared passion for the outdoor life, and the pleasures we enjoy while traveling to and through such wild lands.

It is a passion that remains at the very depths of our existence. We all carry this same genetic stew in our packs, and whether we decide to satisfy our innate craving for the hunt with a camera, a paddle or a .30-.30, Winchester, the fact remains, we remain indelibly linked by our shared love of the land.

It is interesting to note, that a common love of nature and our desire to recreate on wild lands is not just a fleeting preoccupation. Quite obviously, it has been around for over a century as is evident in the following passage taken from the Seventh Report of the Forest, Fish and Game Commission, New York, in 1902.

One hundred and ten years have passed since these words were first penned, but they ring as true today, as there were when first put to paper.

“The hills have also lost, to some extent, the health-giving qualities of the soft woods, with their fragrant germ-destroying odors, the efficacy of which in curing disease is universally admitted.

The air of this region is pure, clear, humid and at all times invigorating, forming one of the attractions and sources of pleasure to the tourist just from the heated, noisome atmosphere of an overcrowded city.

As soon as the sun lowers in the west the temperature drops, and be the day ever so hot, the evening is cool, and the atmosphere tonic. People from inland places who are suffering from insomnia, generally experience little or no trouble in obtaining refreshing sleep with its resultant health and strength.

The pursuit which takes us afield and gives us rest and exercise combined, and increases our resources by broadening our interest in nature, is not merely a pastime, but a recreation benefiting both mind and body, and better preparing us for our duties as citizens of the State.

No one would think of asserting that the value of New York's game animals was to be reckoned in the terms of the bill-of-fare. A few thousand dollars would express their wealth to the butcher or restaurateur, but to the true sportsman they are an exhaustless mine of wealth.

A day with dog and gun, rod or rifle may bring small return from a pecuniary point of view, but who can calculate the amount of physical good and pure enjoyment it has afforded?

Game bag and creel may, indeed, be empty, while our mind is full of stimulating experiences, all increasing our eagerness to take to the field again.

So the hunter of birds with opera glass and camera finds an even deeper pleasure in his excursions into their haunts and study of their ways; a pleasure for which no accounting of the value of birds to the State can ignore.”

VIEWPOINT Defining the line between fact and fiction

hen scientists push for regulations to keep non-native species out of Lake Champlain, they aren’t doing it to intentionally ruin someone’s livlihood—they are doing it to protect one of the region’s largest resources, something we all benefit from.

Shaun Kittle Howard Hammond’s column, Invasives: Fact or Fiction, reflects a trend in our society to dismiss science as suspect when it doesn’t coincide with one’s views regarding a particular issue.

But science and beliefs are two different things. Much like beliefs, the role of science is to answer questions, but unlike beliefs, scientific conclusions are based upon data gleaned from observation and experimentation. As Hammond shows us, those answers aren’t always nice to hear, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be heeded.

While this is an admittedly brief definition of the scientific process, it still cuts to the core of the matter: Hammond has dismissed scientific research in favor of his belief regarding what Lake Champlain should be—a haven for bass fishing. It’s an extraordinarily narrow view considering the vast array of interests invested in this resource.

The North Country has, at its disposal, a lake whose surface area is about 490 square miles. For residents of the region, Lake Champlain is an aqueous economic engine whose value cannot be measured in gallons or miles. Its sheer size might imply that it is impervious to an assault of any kind, but the lake is comprised of many working parts, and is potentially vulnerable if any of those parts are disturbed.

To be clear, Hammond raises a good point when he writes that not every foreign species is detrimental to the lake’s health. He does, however, fail to recognize an important distinction: the terms non-native and invasive are not interchangeable.

Non-native species are those not indigenous to an ecosystem. In Lake Champlain, rainbow trout are nonnative. Invasive takes the definition of non-native one step further by adding that the non-native species in question will or is likely to cause harm to human health, the environment or the economy of the region it inhabits. Zebra mussels and Eurasian milfoil are examples of invasive species presently found in Lake Champlain.

The distinction is important to note, because, while Hammond is correct that ecosystems do change, he neglects to acknowledge that change is not always good.

Science, and history, have taught us that invasive species can seriously affect the biodiversity, and therefore the health, of an ecosystem.

For example, zebra mussels in Lake Champlain are outcompeting native mussels for resources, coating water intake pipes and slicing the feet of non-suspecting swimmers. If that isn’t bad enough, in Lakes Erie and Ontario zebra mussels have been attributed to botulism outbreaks in local waterfowl and bass.

But don’t take my word for it. There is plenty of information out there, and, contrary to Hammond’s assertion, there are also peer-reviewed, scientific journal articles written as well. One of them, “Strategic Plan for Lake Champlain Fisheries,” can be found online at glfc.org/pubs/SpecialPubs/2010-03.pdf. Among its contributors is Mark Malchoff, whom, ironically enough, Hammond mentions in his column.

The article answers Hammond’s main query regarding how invasive species are harmful, and was written as a collaboration of nine scientists and peer reviewed by 14 scientists, all of whose credentials are listed. The document also references 40 scientific papers used throughout the research process, all of which can be accessed for further research.

It’s true that experts don’t know exactly how species like round gobies will affect the ecology of Lake Champlain, and that’s the point. The only way they will know for sure is by studying the effects after it happens, and by then the damage might already be done.

The real question here isn’t “What if there is no harm?” it’s “Why take the risk?”

Adirondack Journal - 17

Balloon festival from page 1 died last year. With the sunny skies, the experience was inspirational, Donahue said, capping off a remarkable weekend.

“We can’t control the weather of course, but regardless of the conditions, everything was overwhelmingly positive this year,” Donahue said.

Governor Cuomo paid a surprise visit to the event on Saturday, congratulating Donahue about how such a large, complex event was run by volunteers yet had such a substantial effect on tourism regionally.

There were lots of tailgating parties, a dozen or more marriage proposals, one wedding, more busloads of visitors ever, plus coverage by all four Capital Region television stations, Donahue said. One news network broadcast live through the weekend, he said. “it was an incredible, action-packed weekend,” Donahue said.

At the opening ceremonies Thursday afternoon, smiling spectators greeted friends, chatted with balloonists and shared memories of earlier festivals. Balloonists and festival organizers said it was one of the largest crowds ever in Crandall Park.

A substantial crowd surrounding a giant birthday-cake balloon — no less than 80 feet tall — cheered when the craft was inflated.

Among those hailing the balloon liftoffs were Doug and Yvette Mahan of Lindenhurst NY, on a weekend getaway from Long Island with their children Casey, 17 and Duncan, 9.

"We've been to many balloon festivals — where you're separated from the balloons by a fence," Doug Mahan said.

"Here, you can talk with the pilots and help out on their crew — you can mix with the pilots up close and personal."

Scott Wetzel was among a half-dozen local volunteers selling clothing, posters, mugs and other merchandise com-

Garage sale beginnings from page 1 In that first year, about 50 vendors were situated in one location, downtown in the Warrensburg Health Center parking lot.

By the second year, Jim Kinneally, a regional outdoors writer and television personality, suggested the “World’s Largest Garage Sale” moniker to boost the sale’s notoriety. Kinneally was a friend of Warren County tourism chief and promoter Doris Herwig, Parisi recalled.

Kinneally’s scheme apparently worked.

In the first year, about 1,000 people attended, to the delight of the committee. But in only two years, the crowd grew exponentially to 20,000 or 30,000, LeCount said.

“It snowballed, the sale REALLY snowballed,” she said. LeCount and Parisi continued to manage the sale in those early years.

memorating the festival's 40th anniversary.

"This is by far the biggest crowd I've seen for years on the festival's opening night — and the enthusiasm is incredible," Wetzel said. He's the soon-to-be brother-in-law of Mark Donahue.

Wetzel said festival volunteers were answering questions — primarily giving directions to first-time attendees — over the festival's hotline, which was ringing non-stop, and through the event's Facebook page.

"This year, there's tons of bus tours headed here," he added, noting the festival was named a top 100 destination on the continent by the American Bus Association.

Nearby, Joan Grishkot of Glens Falls sat in a folding chair, greeting pilots, volunteers and spectators. Her late husband Walt founded and ran the festival with her support. She gazed at the giant birthday-cake balloon, declaring the festival's 40th year.

"It seems like yesterday that this festival started up," she said. "I'm so thankful younger people have taken it over and are running it. I can't imagine our community without it."

One sale site with several dozen spaces soon grew to 500+ vendor spaces at six sanctioned sites, plus dozens of other private congregate sites through town. Several dozen individual yard sales through town mushroomed to 1,000 or more. Other communities from Maine to California heard of the sale’s fame, and launched knockoff events.

The early years of the World’s Largest included an auction each day, and Jim Galusha of Thurman was the auctioneer, LeCount recalled this week.

These debut years were casual and fun, LeCount said. In one of those early auctions, John Hall Sr. of Thurman, the famed area lawyer, donated a donkey to the Garage Sale committee to be auctioned, LeCount said, recalling how during this particular auction, she was near the stage and watching the action as she shared a bottle of wine with Magee.

household goods, tools — or virtually anything imaginable —it’s for sale at Warrensburg’s huge sale. Useful or useless, you’re bound to find it here.

The event begins this year at 9 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 29 and runs until dusk, with the same hours for Sunday Sept. 30.

And these are just the sanctioned hours — the advance sales start up to two days earlier, in some cases before dawn.

The event is not just about bargains. There’s also a streetfair atmosphere, with plenty of carnival food: from “blooming” onions and fried bread, to ethnic food creations — and home-cooked delicacies prepared by local churches and community groups. For those seeking the bizarre confections, there’s deep-fried Oreo cookies.

The event, which lives up to its title, annually attracts tens of thousands of people. Some media representatives — caught up in the frenzy — have several years claimed as many as 100,000 attendees.

Residents extend a warm welcome to town, and invite all visitors to come back and enjoy a vacation here when the true character of the town is evident, when there are a mere 3,800 year-round residents here.

World’s Largest coordinator Lynn Smith said this week that the sale is likely to be larger than ever, as more vendors

How to survive the great sale: The Adirondack Journal offers some practical tips, however, to make your stay this weekend more pleasant. Here’s the scoop on how to avoid frustration of crushing traffic and maximizing your bargain-hunting exhilaration: •Arrive early on Thursday or Friday, check into an area inn or motel, and get into town before 7:15 a.m. A lot of vendors are setting up Friday anyway, and many savvy shoppers who know this are getting “first pick” of a wide range of wares.

the challenges of size, setting up out-oftown parking lots served by shuttle busses.

Back in the early 1980s, the Street Sale, also called the Whale of a Sale, grew so fast it created unanticipated problems, Parisi and LeCount recalled. Parisi said that early on, Jerry Quintal of Oscar ’s Smoke House complained that the crowd in town had gotten so big the traffic prevented Quintal’s many Columbus Day Weekend customers from getting to his store.

“So we moved the sale up one week, and we didn’t miss a beat,” recalled Parisi, noting that Herwig had told the Chamber the Great Sale prompted the largest county sales tax receipts for any weekend over the calendar year.

“Within four years, the World’s Largest Garage Sale was colossal,” Parisi said.

“We created our own holiday — We pushed the right button for Warrensburg.”

•If you do arrive Saturday, take the Northway to exits 22, 24 or 25. Avoid Northway Exit 23, the primary road into Warrensburg, since it becomes very congested. By 8:30 or 9 a.m. Saturday, traffic can be backed up for more than a mile.

•From Exit 22, turn left onto Rte. 9 and drive just a few miles north to Warrensburg.

•From Exit 24, go south on Schroon River Road and park at the Warren County Fairgrounds or the Warrensburg High School where shuttle buses will take shoppers in and out of town. Or, from Exit 25, head south out of Chestertown on Rte. 9 into Warrensburg.

Here are some further tips for garage sale enjoyment:.

•Dress in layers as Adirondack weather is unpredictable.

•Bring a backpack so you can haul your bargains home.

•When parking your car, be courteous and stay off private property unless invited. Don’t block driveways, fire hydrants or public access. No trailers or recreational vehicles may be parked along roadways. They will be ticketed. Many vehicles end up towed each year.

•From Friday Sept. 28 through Sunday Sept. 30, there is no parking on Main St. from the bandstand to Stewart Farrar Avenue, likewise on Horicon Avenue. and Marc Bruce Park at Hudson and Third sts.

•Wear comfortable shoes because you will walk a lot.

You never know what treasure is just another block away.

“A man bid the donkey up to the price of $3,000, then donated the cash to the Chamber of Commerce — but he told us to keep the donkey,” she said. “We really had fun back then.”

LeCount said the purpose was not only about getting people to stop in town, but to help people pay their fall property taxes and winter fuel bills.

“We not only wanted local people to make money for the winter to come, but provide an event for the tourists during such a lovely time of the year,” LeCount said.

Succeeding years saw the crowd grow to 70,000 or more — some observers have estimated as many as 100,000 people in town over the weekend. Traffic has backed up during the sale up to two miles on the Northway to get into town on the weekend’s Saturday morning, with frustrating gridlock downtown.

“We have dozens more vendors than last year, and the Sale is definitely on the rebound,” she said.

Also likely to add to the crowd this year is more intensive advertising in the Capital Region. She also advised people coming from the Albany area to be aware that the weekend construction on the “twin bridges” over the Mohawk River north of Northway Exit 7 are likely to cause traffic delays of up to an hour — another good reason to come up on Thursday or Friday. Motorists can travel up state Rte. 146 rather than the Northway and avoid the delays, however.

Donahue, Walk Grishkot's successor, leaned over and asked Joan Grishkot a question about vendors' contracts, before taking a break to watch a liftoff.

"We couldn't do this without Joan — she's a huge part of this event, and she's like my second mother," he said. "I'm ecstatic about the crowd today."

Donahue watched dozens of parents and their children cheer a liftoff.

"It was Walt's philosophy that the community owns the event, and that's why it continues to be operated by a nonprofit organization and run strictly by volunteers," Donahue said.

About 40 yards away, John and Melinda Lee, and their three young children watched a liftoff. In her mother's arms, Gwendolyn, 2, waved to a multi-color balloon as it took to the air, while 18-month-old J.T., 18 months, watched the spectacle wide-eyed, riding on his dad's shoulders.

The couple has attended the balloon festival ever since they moved to Queensbury four years ago, John Lee said.

"To us, this symbolizes the start of autumn," he said. "With everything that goes on around here, this event sets the tone."

Nearby, Leta Lynch of Lake George aimed her new iPad at an inflating balloon, taking photos from various angles, soon after she'd recorded images of various smiling people in the crowd gazing skyward.

"I love the festival here in Crandall Park — it's oriented toward families, and it's so much fun for everyone."

Nearby, Carol Pluta of Saratoga Springs held a guide rope on her family's balloon, Friendship Too. Pluta and her husband and son attended the festival for years, serving on other balloonists' crews, before acquiring a balloon.

"We got totally hooked on ballooning," she said. Since 1997, their own balloon has been among the 100-plus craft featured at the festival.

"This year, the crowd is way larger than usual," Pluta added. "There was a traffic jam at 3 p.m., two hours before the ceremonies started. People love this festival, because it’s up-close and personal."

Youth football teams face tough foes

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS — The Warrensburg youth football teams have experienced two challenging weeks recently, enduring defeats against talented teams.

On Sept. 22, the third week of the 2012 season, Warrensburg’s 5th and 6th grade squad lost to Glens Falls 32-8 on the mini-Indians’ home field.

The Little Burghers were derailed due to defense, whether it was their own or their opponent’s, coach Gary Baker said.

“We had a rough outing versus Glens Falls,” he said. ”We had two good drives that we could not finish against a tough goal-line stand, and combine that with our defense not executing good tackling, and it‘s tough to win.”

But Baker noted his optimism for upcoming games.

“Today was a setback from where we thought we were, but it was not all bad,” he said. “The kids got to play on Glens Falls’ beautiful turf field and we had some young men do some good things.”

Burgher Jesse Griffin accomplished a run of 57 yards and played well on defense, Evan Macduff led Warrensburg on the ground with 94 rushing yards, and Chris Wilson —who arrived after the start of the game — immediately ran on the field and scored a safety as soon as he was in play.

Also on Sept. 22, the Burgher 3rd and 4th squad lost 20-7 at home versus Ft. Edward.

Little Burghers battle Corinth On Sept 15, the elder youth football squad battled Corinth on the Burgher home field, losing 30 to 16.

Warrensburg was led by Evan Macduff rushing an amazing 27 times for 220 yards with two touchdowns — and completing a pass of 20 yards to tight end Bradon Bailey.

Maclane Baker threw two extra-point conversions to Hunter Mosher and Chris Wilson respectively.

The Burgher defense was led by Peyton

Sports - Adirondack Journal - 19

Olden, Nolan McNeil and Hunter Mosher.

Coach Baker said his team’s early mistakes were tough to overcome, and that’s what made the difference in the outcome.

“We turned the ball over twice early in the game, and then we could never recover,” he said. “When you give Corinth a short field to work with, they make you pay.”

The Burgher team members, however, showed character, he said.

“We were shut out the first half, but the boys rallied in the second behind some key injuries to a couple of starters which included an ambulance being called in.”

Baker said the injury on the field was a “reality check” for him that prompted tears in his eyes.

“Watching a young man being taken by ambulance, I transformed from a coach to a father of 25 boys,” he said. “You spend four years with these kids and they become like one of your own.”

The Burgher player was released later from the hospital with an arm injury, Baker said.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with him and our other hurt players,” Baker said, thanking the members of Warrensburg EMS and others for their speedy response.

The elder mini-Burgher squad wasn’t the only local team facing challenges Sept. 15.

Also facing defeat that Saturday was the Burgher 3rd and 4th grade squad.

In that contest, Corinth beat Warrensburg 25 to 6. The Burghers were led by Hunter McKenna rushing 10 times for 107 yards and one touchdown with Hope Boland, Jordan Mallory, Zach Carpenter, Jesse Giron and Dillon Winchell tallying an additional 115 yards. The Burgher defense was led by Hunter Mckenna, Hope Boland, Zach Shambo and Hunter Nemec.

After the game against Corinth, Coach Mike Curtis said, “The team played with a lot of heart today and each week they seem to improve more and more.”

Next up for both Burgher squads is a matchup Saturday Sept. 29 against Lake George on the Warriors’ home field.

The above comparison only shows subscribers to the Press Republican and postal deliveries made by Denton Publications in the same zip codes. Newsstand sales and bulk drop distribution is not represented. Doing so would not substantially alter the differential.

We are not suggesting you not place

information in the Press Republican, it plays a valuable communication role in our region.

We do think however, it’s important that you understand the significant differences between our delivered quantity in comparison to theirs and recognize that missing 49,157 homes and business locations in your immediate market

could significantly impact your results. Compare the zip codes most important to your event or business and see if adding that Denton publication to your media mix makes sense for your efforts. Call our office today and schedule an appointment to learn about your locally owned community publications and web sites.
