County’s CEO to retire, take over top post at Tri-County

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — In the wake of pending budget cuts, Warren County’s chief executive is retiring and taking over a similar position as Administrator at Adirondack Tri-County Nursing Home in North Creek.

As county supervisors praised his three years of service to the county, Payne said Monday he was looking forward to his new position, which is effective early November.

“It’s an excellent op- Warren County Administrator Hal portunity for me at Tri- Payne talked in his office Monday County, and the job al- about taking over the position of lows me to stay in Warren administrator at Tri-County Nursing Home.

County,” he said.

Photo by Thom Randall Before taking the post as county Administrator, Payne was the top executive at the county’s Westmount Nursing Home.

Payne will be receiving his pension stemming from his work for Warren County, plus the salary at Tri-County, an independent entity.

His decision to move on materialized not long ago as county Supervisors were cutting government jobs — and most recently, looking to eliminate some management positions and consolidate duties. Payne was a key player in the recent process of evaluating functions and personnel posts in various county departments and recommending changes to boost efficiency and cut costs.

One of the suggestions raised in the past several weeks has been to eliminate the county Administrator post and divide the its duties between other management personnel.

Both Payne and county Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe said that the suggestion was not a reason for Payne stepping down.

Monroe said that as a result of Payne’s pending departure, county supervisors now need to decide how to structure the top level of local government.

Warren County’s elected leaders can choose to take over week-to-week management of the county operations and workforce, or they can choose to again hire someone to shoulder those duties, he said.

Great sale a success despite rainy forecast

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Karen Martin of Amsterdam scurried through her friend’s front yard early Monday afternoon packing up leftover merchandise she didn't sell over the weekend dur-

ing the World’s Largest Garage Sale.

For nearly four days, Martin and her daughter Jackie Ellis of Lake George and her friend Karen from Amsterdam, an antique dealer, hosted hundreds of browsers at their yard sale on Library Avenue Extension, and sold more merchandise than they had anticipated,

Martin said.

Their sales included arrays of household furnishings, odd decorative items, furs and clothing culled from estate sales, yard sales and family stashes in storage units, Martin said.

way budget.

If this tentative budget were accepted without revision — which is unlikely — the town property tax rate would increase from $3.40 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation in 2009 to $3.44 per thousand, a 1.2 percent increase.

The tentative budget calls for spending $2.7 million, offset by $1.3 million in revenues,\ and $254,101 in unexpended balance, leaving $1.13 million to be raised by taxes.

The tentative budget, subject to changes, was reviewed at a special town board meeting held Monday afternoon.

The town board is set to reconvene at 4:30 p.m. Oct. 19 to continue drafting the spending plan. Formulation of a preliminary budget, which will then go to public hearing, must occur by by Nov. 5 under state law, which calls for a final budget to be approved

by Dec. 15, officials said.

The main factor in the highway department budget increase, Town Supervisor Geraghty said, is a 3.5 percent increase in wages of eight highway department employees, mandated by a union contract signed last year. The average annual earnings of a highway employee is $42,375, he said.

A variety of expense reductions were already made to the budget, town board members said, to offset a 40 percent increase this year in pension contributions for town employees — a contribution that’s mandated by the state.

Town board seeks further spending cuts

At Monday’s meeting, several board members made suggestions for more budget cuts.

Geraghty suggested the board should consider reducing the cost of town employees’ health care benefits by increasing their co-pay for medical visits from $25 to $35.

This increase would save a full 4 percent of the projected annual $458,000 cost of the employees’ health care benefits, or about $18,000, he said.

Councilman Austin Markey suggested that the town’s summer concert series, a weekly tradition at the bandstand for decades, be discontinued or funding them should cease. He said that only 20 or so people attend the concerts weekly, and it seems like the same 20 individuals attend each time.

Eliminating funding for the concerts would save the town taxpayers $3,500. Markey suggested that instead of hiring bands, the town could promote weekly “open mike” nights.

Markey also suggested cutting the number of teenagers who were employed in the town’s Youth Summer Recreation program. Personnel costs of the program total $17,000, he said.

Markey said that on some days, more teen staff members attended the program than participants.

Both Markey and Geraghty said they had reservations about cutting these payroll costs, because the Summer Recreation program provided a valuable first employment

experience for local teenagers, and such job opportunities for youth were becoming scarce.

Markey also suggested cutting allocations for fuel expenses due to recent reductions in fuel prices.

Geraghty warned that the unexpended balance in the town’s water district budget was being depleted with annual shortfalls in revenue.

He said that the town water fund has $286,000 in annual expenses, but brings in $190,000 from water rents.

He suggested that the board consider logging town property to raise cash to offset the shortfall, or sell some land.

If the town activates the water meters and starts billing according to use, townspeople would cut their usage dramatically, slashing the water district’s operation and maintenance costs, he said. Studies have shown that municipalities converting to meters reduce water consumption by 35 percent, board members said.

Geraghty said water metering would mean increases for those who used very large quantities, and a reduction in costs for the remaining customers.

He said that rumors of metering tripling the water bills of local seniors was false, and that they’d continue to receive a substantial discount.

Board members said they’d be scrutinizing the budget, looking for opportunities to trim expenses.

Acclaimed ‘Student Connection’ to cease operations Lake George agency aided foreign student workers, area employers LAKE GEORGE — The village-sponsored agency that has arranged housing and employment for thousands of foreign students will soon be closing down permanently, Mayor Robert Blais announced Monday afternoon.

Lake George Village’s Student Connection — founded about a decade ago to assure that foreign student workers had decent, affordable housing and good workplace conditions — will cease operations as of Nov. 1, Blais said.

Directors of the organization met recently with the Mayor and notified him that operation of the office, staffing and services of the not-for-profit organization was no longer economically feasible, Blais said.

The Student Connection board members and their lone employee, Geri Sullivan, cited several factors that contributed to the decline in revenues, as well as the decrease in number of students and employers using the Connection.

The Town and Village of Lake George each annually provided $6,000 to the operation.

Connection board President Dan Garay said many employers were using outside firms to book their foreign students, decreasing much-needed revenues. Other employers overestimated their needs for the summer season this year, causing layoffs of some students as well, he added. Also, some businesses that signed up for students refused them employment when they arrived this year due to the slow start of the summer, he said.

A foreign worker rides his bike to work in Bolton Landing during late July 2008. The Student Connection, a Lake George Village-sponsored agency that for a decade assured decent, affordable housing and helped arrange decent jobs for foreign workers, will cease operations permanently as of Nov. 1, village Mayor Robert Blais said Monday.

Journal file photo by Jonathan Alexander

One outside firm that does not work with the Connection brought as many as 150 students to the area. The Connection charges a small fee per student to find them summer jobs and housing, and works with several outside firms that solicit and pre-screen the students — primarily from Eastern European countries — and arrange for their transportation.

Several employers cut back on their needs this year due to the economy and many students also lost the ability to secure two jobs, which many of them desire. The Student Connection once registered over 350 employees annually, and this year ’s total was less than 80.

Garay, Sullivan and board member Chuck Luke all expressed disappointment that the

students now would lack a “home away from home.”

Through its existence, Student Connection served as a place to go with complaints about unfair labor practices, substandard housing, emergency needs, or just as a place to “hang out,” e-mail home and meet other students.

In recent years, students’ complaints over housing and labor conditions were infrequent — a fact which some have attributed to the continuing work of the Student Connection.

Members of the Connection secured jobs for interested students, arranged and inspected housing, arranged medical needs, secured transportation and offered a valuable resource for them in times of emergencies, Blais and others have said.

Such work by the agency did not go unnoticed. In 1998, the Connection received a statewide award in 1998 for its innovative services.

The agency was originally founded after village officials discovered that foreign student workers were being packed into motel rooms and charged exorbitant rates for summer housing. Also, in an era that good employees were scarce, the agency helped area businesses by providing educated workers who characteristically were diligent and motivated.

Monday, Blais reminisced about the agency’s successes.

“The loss of the Connection will create a large void in the necessary services that foreign students need when they arrive in a strange town,” Blais said. “I can still vividly remember students back in 1998 getting off the bus and not knowing where to go — not a nice welcome to our country.”

Best-kept secrets: Do you know your limits?

I

'm sure everyone has seen a sale like this. The grocery store will offer a great, bargain price on an item, the kind of item you might like to buy quite a few of at a time. But then, the store's advertisement says, in small print, "Limit 4."

If you've been reading this column for a while and saving all of your weekly coupon inserts, it's likely that you have accumulated multiple coupons for the same item. For this example, assume you've been watching your store's sale fliers and waiting for yogurt cups to go on sale. Finally, there they are, four for $1, a great price!

But then, of course, you're disappointed to note that you can only buy four cups of yogurt. Time for the fourth, best-kept couponing "secret": Secret #4: How to 'Unlimit' Purchase Limits.

At most stores, when a sale item is advertised "limit 4," it does not refer to the number of total items of that type but, rather, the variety of each item. With the yogurt example, above, you would not be limited to four cups of yogurt. You'd be limited to four vanilla, four peach, four blueberry, four banana and so on.

How does this work? When purchase limits are put into place for a sale, most stores set the register to limit four scans at the sale price on the bar code of that product. But each variety of a product has its own unique bar code. So, while the advertisement may lead us to believe that we can buy just four yogurt cups, we can actually buy four of each flavor. If 12-packs of soda are on sale "limit 5," we can buy five 12-packs of each variety of soda.

As long as you don't exceed the purchase limit on each flavor, type, or variety of an item you can essentially take home as many of that item as you want or need that day - and in turn, buy as many as you have coupons for. It's a great way to beat the pricing game, too, because sales with purchase limits typically offer an item at a low price in the store's pricing cycle, too. When the price hits that low, it's the right time to buy as many as you will need or use until

the price drops again.

So, let's see how this sale could work in my favor. Because I've saved my coupon inserts, I have six coupons for 50 cents off four cups of yogurt. I'm not limited to just buying four cups; I'll buy 24 today! 24 yogurt cups may seem like a lot to buy at one time, but in comparing the expiration dates with the amount of yogurt our household will likely consume over the next month, I know that our family of five will eat it long beBy Jill Cataldo fore it expires. I buy 4 cups of each flavor that I want, never exceeding the purchase limit of four for any of the flavors. And wait until you see what I pay.

With a 50-cent coupon for each four I buy, my yogurt now costs me just $3 for 24 cups, or just 12.5 cents each! That's a fantastic price for yogurt cups. By waiting to use my yogurt coupons until yogurt was deeply discounted, I saved even more.

I've mentioned this before, but the grocery stores in my neighborhood do not double coupons. But around the country, many stores do. Imagine if I were shopping in a store that doubled coupons! each 50-cent coupon would double to $1 in value and all the yogurt would be free. Now that's super-couponing!

•100 Years Ago – Sept.-Oct., 1909• President visits for tri-centennial William Howard Taft, 52, our 27th president, passed through this area in September to travel to Fort Ticonderoga to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the voyages by Samuel de Champlain and Henry Hudson. (Note…1909 was the first year of Taft’s presidency. He died in Washington, D.C. in 1930.)

Fire ravishes North Creek store Siegel Brother ’s dry goods store at North Creek burned to the ground Sept. 23, 1909 at 3 a.m. The proprietors were away and the only one there was a young clerk. The fire, which began in the front of the store, gained much headway before it was discovered. A bucket brigade and hard work saved the adjoining buildings. The entire contents of the store were destroyed and there was only partial insurance.

Bakers Mills namesake dies John P. Baker, 83, who has been feeble all summer, died Sept. 17, 1909 of old age. He leaves a widow and a son, and also a daughter by his first marriage that lives in Nebraska.

He was the brother of Mrs. Daniel Wilcox.

The deceased was born in 1826 near The Glen and came to Bakers Mills about 40 years ago when lumbering was booming. He bought a considerable amount of land and soon purchased and ran the Warren Hitchcock lumber mill. He cleared land, built a dam and a saw and grist mill where he has done business continuously ever since until a few years ago when his son, Charles Baker took over.

The Post Office there was named Bakers Mills as his was the only mill there at the time. John P. Baker is buried in the Bates Cemetery.

Hunters abound in Stony Creek, panther seen Many large bucks have been taken out of the forest by hunters in West Stony Creek. In Knowelhurst the streets are lined with hunting parties going into to and coming out of the woods. Many automobiles are seen and some fine deer are displayed by proud hunters.

There is excitement in that area about a large North American panther which was recently seen on Wheeler Mountain in Harrisburg, by Mr. Hodson of Luzerne. He is an old panther hunter who says that this one, grayish in color, is the largest one he ever saw. (Note: Jessica Laube of Newcomb apparently saw a black cougar or mountain lion July 30 this year wandering down Tahawus Rd. while she was out for an evening stroll.)

Hotel Ruliff linked to bad luck As a result of an automobile accident Sunday Sept. 26, 1909, on the highway near the gravel beds in North Caldwell (Lake George), Marion Frazier, son of M.H. Frazier, proprietor of the Hotel Ruliff (north corner of Glen and South streets, Glens Falls), had his leg broken in three places above the knee.

Young Frazier had been to Chestertown and when rounding a curve, another machine was running north, and a carriage was also in the road, so it was a case of either taking the ditch or a head-on collision. The ditch received the decision and the south bound auto turned once and a half over, but Frazier was the only one to receive serious injuries.

In another incident, Mrs. Edward Corrigan, of Kentucky, died at the home of her niece, Mrs. W.M. Hill, of Sandy Hill (Hudson Falls), where she had been taken by ambulance. The two ladies had been standing in front of the Hotel Ruliff in Glens Falls waiting for a car to take them to Warrensburgh to the home of Mrs. Corrigan’s sister, Mrs. Sarah Wallace, when Mrs. Corrigan suffered a stroke.

Mr. Corrigan, a well-known horseman, arrived in time for the funeral.

Stackhouse dead in bed Miss Charlotte Stackhouse, 24, daughter of Orange Stackhouse, employed as a domestic in Glens Falls, was found dead in her bed at the home of her employer, Eugene Derby.

Miss Stackhouse, being subject to epilepsy, may have had an attack during the night, and turning on her side with her face downward against the pillow, suffocated. Her remains were taken to her parents’ home in Johnsburgh.

Evil killer strikes down horses A fine pair of young horses owned by James Shanahan, of Katz’s Corners, turned out to pasture at Thurman, were poisoned with Paris Green and died one day apart. They were four and five years old, respectively, iron gray, well matched and one of the handsomest teams in this locality – probably worth $450 to $500. The poison was scattered on the grass in the field by some person or persons at present unknown and a determined effort is being made to apprehend who ever is guilty of this diabolic crime.

(Note… Katz’s Corners, sometimes called Cat’s Corners, is at the Warrensburg end of the Thurman Bridge at the start of Hickory Hill Road.)

Deaths in the news Fremont Bolster, a former resident of Warrensburgh, was the victim of a fatal accident at Comstock when he was struck in the darkness by a bicycle which another person was riding. Death ensued 24 hours after the accident.

The nine-year old son of Delbert Tucker of Stony Creek, was taken to the Glens Falls Hospital by Dr. G.H. Aldrich and in the afternoon was operated upon by Dr. T.H. Cunningham for appendicitis. The boy is in critical condition and there is little hope for his recovery.

Developments in Warrensburgh A killing frost struck Warrensburgh Sept. 18, 1909.

There is no close to this year ’s straw hat season as they can be worn this winter with ear lappers.

The leaves are fast assuming their usual autumn hue. A mild winter is expected as the wind seems to continue south by southwest.

SATURDAY October 10, 2009

There was a big break in the water main near the Shirt Factory caused by a sand hole in the pipe.

James Harrison has set a new high average raising potatoes this year on a two-acre patch of the Griffing homestead, of which he is superintendent for Dr. Cyrus S. Merrill, of Albany, and some of his big tubers weigh two pounds and a quarter. (Note…The Griffing homestead is now Grace’s Bed and Breakfast, in the center of town).

L.T. Eldridge is the potato winner to date with one weighing two and a half pounds. Claude Waddell has three tubers collectively weighing six and a half pounds. Potatoes are selling this year for 75 cents a bushel.

Charles Wade came home from the Albany Hospital where his eye had been operated upon for cataracts by Dr. Cyrus S. Merrill and his sight has been restored to full use.

Miss Jennie Tubbs, of Oak Street, is prepared to accept pupils on the piano at their home.

A son, Walter L. Needham, was born to Mr. and Mrs. Edson Needham of Warrensburgh while Mrs. Needham was staying at the home of her father, George VanShaick at Sandy Hill (Hudson Falls).

Allen Russell has given up his job in W.H. Straight’s Livery to go north with Lewis Bidwell after deer.

(Note…Straight’s Livery was in the stone building just north of Grace’s Pub.) The official board of the Warrensburgh Methodist Episcopal Church has voted to purchase a communion set with 250 cups from a well-known house.

News roundabout It is believed that every town and city will soon be required to place a large signboard on top of their tallest building on which will be printed the name of the town for the information of passing airship pilots.

The Delaware and Hudson Co. has announced plans to rebuild the Fort William Henry Hotel at Lake George which was destroyed by fire early this summer. The new hotel will be fireproof in construction Alfred Ingraham of Lake George, is building the new Methodist Episcopal Church in North Thurman and the work is progressing rapidly.

The Rev. Mr. Hovey, of Welcome, Oswego County, preached Oct. 3, 1909 at the Kenyontown Baptist Church.

(Note…Soon after, Rev. Edwin Hovey married Mary Hadden, widow of Miles Frost of Thurman and historical documents don’t reveal what happened to them thereafter.)

Camp Thieriot in Chestertown is being put in shape for the winter. The piazza is being encased in glass, which not only looks well but helps keep the place warm. (Note…Driving east up Thieriot Avenue the Thieriot house was the first one on the left and the glass encased porch is still there after all these years. Albert died in 1915 and his wife, Phoebe Watson died in 1934,) Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.

It's time to reconsider sales tax option and slash the property tax burden

T

alk among Warren County leaders has resurfaced about raising the sales tax from 7 to 8 percent, a move that could shift about $15 million off the backs of property owners.

The discussion has erupted again because since June, county leaders have been firing employees, paring down the county's expenses, cutting programs to the bone, yet

they're still facing a $2 million budget deficit as they are attempting to keep the tax rates the same as last year.

County revenues, however, have fallen sharply, whether it's a $3.2 million drop in sales tax projected for this year, or a $600,000 decrease in bed tax receipts.

Pair that with a $1.6 million increase in subsidy necessary for the Hudson Falls trash plant, and a $1.2 million increase in contribution to retirement benefits for county employees, and the financial distress intensifies.

Add onto that the increased program costs the state is shifting to local municipalities — including $500,000 additional to administrate the food stamp program — and the county property owners are facing a staggering increase in taxes for 2010 and beyond.

Meanwhile, some of the needs of the citizens, many of which the county is mandated to take care of, are soaring.

The county Health Services department has more cases than ever, yet they may have to drastically cut their care due to downsized staffing.

Social Services caseloads have increased 35 to 65 percent, depending on the program — so this is not the time to cut staffing in the Social Services department as the county leaders have been doing.

They have been considering eliminating one of two attorneys who argue cases in court concerning abuse and neglect of children, seeking to change custody arrangements and have the children placed in safe, loving homes.

Cutting the legal staff in half puts children at risk.

This is just one of many positions, up to 40, that are on the chopping block.

Already, our roadways have suffered, with far less mileage of new paving being laid down this year than in prior years, and there are more potholes and substandard roadways around the county than in recent history.

But with the record foreclosures and oppressive tax burden, county taxpayers can't afford to have property taxes raised.

Why not raise the sales tax to 8 percent? Only five of the state's 672 counties have sales tax less than 8 percent, and they include Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties.

The basic problem is chiefly with ever-increasing state mandates on counties to provide unfunded services.

Opponents to a sales tax hike say that sales taxes are regressive, hurting the poor more than the wealthy.

But I disagree. A large percentage of our county's economy is based on either tourists, or wealthy part-year residents, both of whom consume a tremendous amount of

goods and services that are taxed. Three percent of taxable sales already brings $45 million into the county. In addition, remember that groceries and medicine are non-taxable.

Also, any dollar raised as a tax on consumption — which is primarily a matter of personal choice — reduces a mandated, unavoidable property tax which is not a matter of personal

By Thom Randall choice.

Opponents of a sales tax hike also say that taxes would discourage tourism, but this is likely not true. Remember how many vocal citizens claimed the 3 percent bed tax now charged at hotels and motels would repel visitors?

Since the bed tax has been imposed, we've enjoyed a string of outstanding seasons for tourism.

Citizens wary of a sales tax increase should consider Lake Luzerne Supervisor Gene Merlino’s calculations. He estimates that a 1 percent sales tax offers a net gain by most county taxpayers of $280 per year. At that rate, a citizen would have to spend $28,000 for taxable goods and services to break even.

The opposition to raising sales tax in April deep-sixed the concept until late 2010, because the county leaders would have to request enabling legislation from the state to allow a sales tax increase.

But now is the time to take steps forward.

Many in April thought government excess should be trimmed before any sales tax increase was considered.

But the services and programs have now been cut substantially, and it's now time to boost the revenue and support the 8 percent sales tax rate — as long as the $15 million or so in new revenue is dedicated to reducing property taxes, rather than bloating the county bureaucracy like occurred in the mid-1990s through 2008.

Special days in ‘God’s Country’ Kenyontown Church anniversary attracts many

T

he Kenyontown Methodist Church’s recent 100th anniversary celebration was quite a wonderful gathering to share the joy of the founding of the small church located on Valley Rd. in Thurman.

More than 50 people came from near and far to enjoy the day in an old-fashioned church. This is one of the few churches left that is original, with no additions constructed through its century of existence, except for the handicapped access in front.

Like in the old days, the church still has a nearby outhouse for emergency use.

The very old colored windows with etched designs bear the names of the families who purchased them years long ago. Unfortunately the old wood stove which stood in the back of the church and provided heat in winter has been removed, and a toad stool bearing one Bible verse — about 2 feet long — which was painstakingly burnt into the fungus by church member Mabel Lillibridge and placed in the entrance way is also gone. However, the original bell, the original pews and pulpit still remain like in bygone days, plus song books from the old days and the original Bible donated by a Reverend Warden.

Speakers at the anniversary celebration on Sunday Sept.

13 were the Reverend David Newkirk — now retired, Nellie Hintz, and Patty Mollack. Also participating in the service was a famous gospel duo from Indian Lake, Patty Yates and Jim Dunn, singing some inspirational songs in harmony. Guests at the event enjoyed a tour of the church as well as a covered-dish barbecue while meeting new friends and neighbors at the gathering. Th event was all organized by Theresa and Jeff Grants and other church members.

Church services are regularly held on Sundays at 11 a.m., and parish extend a warm welcome for all to attend.

Abandoned pets becoming a problem Many neighbors have been having problems with cats and kittens being dropped off at or near their homes. If this happens to you, call Dexter Baker, the animal control officer at 623-9810 or reach him on his cell phone at 2323912.

Events and activities in Thurman

Folks celebrating birthdays his week are Mary Valastro, Elizabeth Dimick on Oct. 10; Hial Hall III, Cy Combs, and Bill Davidson on Oct. 11; Mister Richard Needham and Jason Kenyon on Oct. 12; Patty Darton, Doris Baker and Craig Baker on Oct. 13; and Jonathan Moon on Oct. 15.

Couples celebrating anniversaries this week include Mary and Rodney Kenyon, 39 years on Oct. 10; Ed and Herma Baker, 58 years; and Brian and Donna Davis, 9 years on Oct. 14.

offered for 25 cents, treadle sewing machines in a wooden cabinet were $14, pails of house paint were 59 cents a gallon, wallpaper was 3 cents per double roll, and road wagons and road carts for horses to pull were $12 to $30. A fancy surrey could be purchased for about $75, sheep shears were 32 cents, coal furnaces: $27, and violins: $3.75 and up. Gold-filled pocket watches were a mere $6.95, diamond rings: $3, hand ice cream freezers $1.92, and so much more. I noticed that was only a limited selection of clothing in the 1,185-page catalog.

We can surely notice that enterprises who normally send out junk mail have cut their budgets along with the rest of us — when we see occasionally that our mailboxes only have outgoing mail. We had all better start sending out more letters and cards or maybe our faithful postal workers will end up like out telephone operators, our electric meter readers or those service station employees in the old days who ran out to pump gas into your car.

Thanks for the many phone calls after reading the article describing public reaction to the “swingers” club during the town board meeting on Sept. 15. Even though I appreciate both opinions, for and against, I did not write the entire article, and I was not at the board meeting, although our editor was.

Have you planned a good deed or an act of kindness to perform for the world-wide Make a Difference Day to be held on Oct. 24?

A weird storm ripped through the Kenyontown area in the early evening hours on Sept. 28.

The storm started with fierce winds taking lawn chairs and ornaments and other debris for a spin, then came a few big flashes of lightening before we got pelted with downpour of a rain and hailstones with strong winds making it sound fierce. Fortunately, Thurmanites did not lose power.

Some of our fair-weather neighbors are heading south for the winter months, leaving us all to do the shoveling and plowing, Thanks folks!

within a three-mile radius, he said.

The first stage of upgrades — expected by early November — will initially support up to 96 DSL customers, with the capacity of another 96 available several weeks later.

“This is vital infrastructure for the economies of rural communities,” Pitkin said Monday. “Whether it’s the marketing of craft businesses or kids taking college courses over the Internet, a lot of good things will happen with upgrades to our Internet service.”

Many Thurman residents can now connect to the Internet via satellite, but such service can be interrupted by cloud cover or storms. It also is not inexpensive, costing customers about $90 per month.

In contrast, DSL is generally available at about $40 per month for the highest 3megabyte service, and about $20 for the 1-megabyte version.

Authorities said Monday that the slowest DSL, the 1megabyte version, is 15-

miles of Parker ’s Crossroads in the north end of town, he said.

Pitkin said the DSL upgrades would be an initial step in bringing affordable but fast Internet service to Thurman.

He’s hoping that CBN Connect, which is launching an effort to bring optical-cable Internet service to rural upstate areas, will be bringing its service to Thurman.

This trunk line, CBN officials say, would be offered to various Internet service providers, who would build out the “last mile” link to subscribing households in rural areas. With the trunk line open to all providers, competition would force Internet service prices down, they say.

CBN Connect, a not-forprofit broadband developer, submitted a grant application in August for $22 million in stimulus money to construct a regional broadband trunk-line loop through rural upstate regions including northern Warren County.

Pitkin said he’d be lobbying for the CBN trunk line to run through Thurman.

“We understand that CBN Connect’s fiber-optic project is moving along,” Pitkin said. “This could bring serious high speed Internet service to Thurman.”

times faster than 56-kilobyte dial-up service, which most Thurman residents use. The 3-megabyte edition is about 45 times faster.

The speed of data transmission, however, decreases in relation to the distance from the terminal.

Pitkin, who owns a construction enterprise, said the introduction of DSL service will make a remarkable difference in conducting business online. He noted that high speed Internet service is vital to various local businesses, like Nettle Meadow Goat Farm which sells its cheese nationally to individuals and various outlets.

“Often, when I try to download something, I get bumped off before the process is completed,” he said, noting that many businesses in Thurman can’t conduct a viable, efficient transactions over the Internet because of a lack of fast digital access. “Dial-up moves at snail speed.”

Pitkin said he’s heard that if this first DSL offering is well accepted, Verizon will undertake a similar upgrade as soon as next summer to a second remote terminal at Parker ’s Crossroads, off Valley Road.

This second phase of DSL upgrade, if launched, will serve a substantial number of families residing within 3

Posing after examining a Secci disc which helps scientists gauge the transparency and purity of water, are Bolton Central students (left to right) Caroline Clesceri, Andi Pfau and Kenzie Tennent.

BOLTON LANDING — Bolton Central middle school students got a first-hand look recently at how environmental scientists monitor the water quality of Lake George.

On Sept. 29 and 30, the seventh and sixth grade classes participated in the Floating Classroom on Lake George, an experience offered by the Lake George Association to boost awareness of environmental issues related to waterways.

The Floating Classroom experience for the Bolton students program began in the morning on the waters of Lake George with students participating in experiments to determine the water purity of the lake. Students checked clarity, temperature and microscopic plankton to scientifically determine the quality of the lakewater, while hearing about the importance of citizens being active stewards of the lake environment — and how clean water is important to all.

In the afternoon sessions, the students went to a feeder stream to investigate the water that empties into Lake George to see how the upstream environment and stormwater runoff impacts the watershed of Lake George.

Launched by the LAke George Association in 1991, the Floating Classroom program is considered a remarkable success. More than 1,000 students participate each season in the program, which is gaining in popularity.

7 Myths About Breast Cancer 1. Myth: I’m too young to worry about breast cancer.

Fact: While it’s true that your breast cancer risk increases as you get older, the fact is that women of all ages are at risk for developing breast cancer.

2. Myth: There’s never been a case of breast cancer in my family so I don’t need to worry about it happening to me.

Fact: The truth is the majority of women diagnosed with breast cancer don’t have a family history of this devastating cancer. However, if your mother, sister, or grandmother ever had breast cancer your risk is significantly increased.

3. Myth: I don’t have a mutated BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene so I’m sure breast cancer is not in my future.

Fact: Don’t fool yourself! Not having a mutated BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene does not mean you won’t get breast cancer.

Actually, the truth is that almost all women (90 to 95 percent) diagnosed with breast cancer have neither a family history nor mutated BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene, according to the American Cancer Society.

4. Myth: The majority of women diagnosed with breast cancer had more than one risk factor prior to diagnosis.

Fact: All women are at risk for developing breast cancer whether they have known risk factors. In fact, the majority

of breast cancer patients had no known risk factors, other than being female, for this frightening disease.

5. Myth: Breast cancer is preventable.

Fact: Although a drug classified as an antiestrogen called,Tamoxifen may decrease breast cancer risk in certain women, the cause of breast cancer remains unknown and is not completely preventable.The real key to surviving breast cancer is early detection and treatment.

6. Myth: Having yearly mammograms will expose me to too much radiation and cancer will occur as a result.

Fact: According to the American College of Radiology, the benefits of annual mammograms far outweigh any risks that may occur because of the minute amount of radiation used during this screening and diagnostic procedure.

7. Myth: I’m not going to breastfeed because breastfeeding would increase my risk of getting breast cancer.

Fact: Just the opposite is true.

Breastfeeding may actually decrease the risk of perimenopausal breast cancer.

If you are due for your annual mammogram, here are some important things to know about The Breast Center at Glens Falls Hospital: • The Breast Center offers the latest in digital screening technology at both Glens Falls Hospital and The Greenwich Regional Medical Center. This full field digital mammography system helps doctors detect breast cancer in its earliest stages by providing sharper, more detailed images of your breast tissue.

Even so, the hours before a final diagnosis can be extremely stressful.The Breast Center staff does everything possible to reduce this period of uncertainty. Working with experienced radiologists and your doctor, they quickly schedule ultrasounds and other tests at The Breast Center’s Glens Falls Hospital location to help you quickly determine the cause of any abnormality.

• The Breast Center offers minimally invasive breast biopsies at its Glens Falls Hospital location. If you have a breast abnormality that requires further diagnosis,The Breast Center offers non-surgical, minimally invasive breast biopsies that provide doctors with the most accurate information as quickly as possible, and minimize your discomfort.

• Specially trained nurses are here to help you. If an abnormality is detected, and a biopsy is required, you will be assigned a specially trained nurse as your personal support and education provider.

• The Breast Center partners with the doctors of Adirondack Radiology Associates, who provide expert review and analysis of your breast images and work closely with your doctor if additional testing is required. All of the images at The Breast Center are reviewed locally, not transmitted to out-of-town facilities.

• The Breast Center is part of the The C. R. Wood Cancer Center.

1) Highest risk answer: d. As you age, your risk of getting breast cancer increases.

2) Highest risk answer: b. Caucasian women are diagnosed with breast cancer more often than African-Americans, Latinas and Asian-Americans, according to BreastCancer.org. But African-American women are more likely to die from the disease, possibly because they develop faster-growing tumors, according to the American Cancer Society.

3) Highest risk answer: c. Only a fraction of breast cancer cases are associated with a family history of the disease, but if a first-degree relative has had breast cancer, your risk doubles, according to the American Cancer Society.

4) Highest risk answer: a.Women who get their periods early (12 or younger) or go through menopause after age 55 have a slightly increased risk of breast cancer, according to BreastCancer.org.

5) Highest risk answer: d. Pregnancy is believed to lower breast cancer risk because it stops the menstrual cycle for nine months, according to BreastCancer.org.

6) Highest risk answer: a. According to the American Cancer Society, some studies have shown that breastfeeding lowers your breast cancer risk slightly, particularly in women who nurse for one-and-a-half or two years.

7) Highest risk answer: c. A large 2007 study showed that breast cancer risk increased when combination HRT (estrogen and progestin) was used by menopausal and postmenopausal women, according to BreastCancer.org.

8) Highest answer: b. If you’re overweight or obese, or if you eat a high-fat diet, you increase your risk of breast cancer.

9) Highest risk answer: a. Research has shown that five hours of exercise a week may lower the risk of breast cancer.

10) Highest risk answer: c. To keep your breast cancer risk low, you want your estrogen levels to be low.Your liver helps to regulate the estrogen levels in your system, but drinking too much alcohol may affect the liver’s ability to do its job.

You have 1, 2 or 3 risk factors:You have very few risk factors for breast cancer, but you should discuss them with your doctor.

You have 4, 5 or 6 risk factors:You have some risk factors for breast cancer, so you should discuss them with your doctor.

Gary Martin of Martin’s Lumber in Thurman talks with visitors during the 2008 Fall Farm Tour about the how timber is processed in his sawmill to produce lumber. This year’s edition of the popular Farm Tour is set for this weekend.

THURMAN — The pace of life slows down a bit during fall in rural northern Warren County, giving folks who work the land a chance to dust off their hospitality, open the barn doors and invite the public in.

This year the annual Thurman Farm Fall Tour will be held Saturday and Sunday Oct. 10 and 11, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days.

Valley Road Maple Farm will open an hour early each day to serve homemade pancakes dripping with pure Thurman maple syrup, as well as conducting tours and displaying wares.

Whitefield’s Farm on Mountain Rd. will stay open until 6 p.m., showing off their poultry, pigs and produce, and inviting young guests to decorate pumpkins.

Around the corner at Adirondack Gold Maple Farm, old “Tapper,” the legendary sugar-maker, will take kids young and old to the sugarbush to see where syrup comes from, while others at the farm will offer a wide range of tempting maple products and introduce a new line of soaps and lotions created by Sally Feihel of Adirondack Suds and Scents.

Young Burghers tangle with Corinth in defensive battle CORINTH — The Warrensburg youth football teams met some formidable foes Saturday night under the lights in Corinth.

Whether it’s the feeling of performing onstage. or the brilliance of the lights illuminating the team colors against the backdrop of the green, misty grass, playing under the lights is every young players dream. Win or lose, players come away with a feeling of accomplishment, and these tough young kids played to the best of their ability Saturday night.

In their matchup, the junior Burghers came out swinging, throwing for a 20-yard gain on their first offensive play.

Quarterback Dan Monthony tallied an impressive four for eight, with two receptions caught by Evan MacDuff and one apiece to Greg Shambo and Mike Baker. Tailback Jacob Johnson rushed for 105 yards against the Tomahawks, but the young Burghers’ offensive squad was not able to put points on the board. But their defense did in the form of a safety.

The game was a very hard-fought defensive contest.

Regardless of the final score of Corinth 14, Warrensburg, 2, the Burgher players tallied considerable accomplishments.

Chris Wilson racked up a sack, Greg Shambo had a fumble recovery and Will Schwarz led the team with 7 tackles. But it was Corinth’s defense that secured the win as they kept Warrensburg out of their end zone. Even when the Burghers had two chances at first-and-goal the Tomahawks would not break, stuffing everything that was attempted against them.

The senior Burghers’ game was delayed due to thunderstorms in the area, but as soon as the storms passed in the sky, the thunder rolled on the field. Once again it was a defensive game. The Tomahawks put six points on the board in the first quarter but their extra-point kick attempt was denied when it hit the goal post. The next two quarters were scoreless when both defenses buckled down and stopped the opposing offenses in their tracks. Jacob Nemec gave an outstanding defensive performance for the Burghers.

In the fourth quarter, the Burghers engineered an impressive drive, with great contributions from Joe Schuster, Brandon Schwarz and Ian Hayes. Joe Schuster took the ball in for a touchdown to tie the game, and Brandon Schwarz ran up the middle on the extra-point conversion to take the lead.

With less than seven minutes left, the Tomahawks got possession of the ball. Using up more than five minutes of the clock, they drove the ball 70 yards downfield for a touchdown. The kick attempt was good, putting the Tomahawks up 14-7.

The Burghers then had about 90 seconds left for an attempt to tie the game. After 40 yards and a resilient offensive attack, they just ran out of time.

The Warrensburg coaching staff was proud of each player ’s effort Saturday, with coaches stating that it was just one of those days when the opponent plays a little bit better.

This Saturday, the Burghers meet up against Ticonderoga on the Warrensburg recreation field. The junior squad begins play at 10 a.m., and the seniors take to the field immediately afterwards. All are welcome to attend and see these young athletes play their hearts out.

Burgher Quarterback Dan Monthony drops back to throw a pass to receiver Greg Shambo for a 20-yard gain during Saturday’s game against Corinth.

LG #13 Jenna Bechard (second from right) scores Lake George's second and final goal against Corinth during a key matchup Monday. Defending the Tomahawk’s net is goalie Celeste White and Nicole Bovee (center). Katelyn Callahan scored the first goal in the league win, while Warrior Chelsea Obarowski made three saves to preserve a shutout.

Payne From page 1 administration, you need to hire an exceptionally good administrator or you'll flounder,” Monroe said.

“You have to conduct and exhaustive search for the right person and be very careful in selecting them.”

Among his duties, Payne negotiated with the officials of the county’s various unions, helped prepare budgets and identify potential cost savings, monitored performance of various county departments and their managers, researched cost-cutting initiatives, evaluated state reimbursements and grant opportunities, and lobbied with state officials on behalf of the county, Monroe said.

Replacing Payne would be very difficult, he said.

“Hal’s done a really good job — He’s extremely knowledgeable and is on top of all the details,” Monroe said. “He always obtains the information we need to make decisions.”

If the county Supervisors decide to eliminate the Administrator post to save its nearly-$100,000 salary, then some of the duties, including basic budget research, could be taken over by existing employees, Monroe said.

Payne said he wouldn’t feel bad if his job were axed.

“Maybe my retirement could save a couple of jobs here at the county,” he said.

We’re going through tough times, and it’s not getting any better.”

Payne, who served as interim administrator of TriCounty about two years ago, said he was looking forward to his new post.

“Tri-County has an excellent facility and an outstanding staff,” he said, noting that the nursing home features outpatient physical therapy and rehabilitation, and is conveniently adjacent to a Hudson Headwaters Health Network clinic.

“Tri-County has a great staff and management team, and they provide excellent care.”

Payne said he is eager to get involved in North Creek, which he said was a dynamic, emerging community, with its expanded ski facilities, new downtown businesses, and renovated streetscape.

“North Creek has a rural small-town feeling, but it also has a lot to offer for culture and recreation,” he said.

Area officials: we’ll fight to keep Adirondack road signs

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com

New blog to provide forum for outdoor topics B

y the time you read this I will have a new blog setup on our Web site designed to allow sportsman an opportunity to exchange stories and ideas. I hope to give some insight into what is and isn’t working for me at any given time and perhaps start a dialogue with others who enjoy the outdoor pursuits as much as I do.

I definitely don’t profess to know it all, and would love to learn new hunting and fishing practices that have proven successful, so feel free to go to www.denpubs.com and drop me a line.

I also strongly encourage questions — from whether the ice is gone from a particular pond to where heritage strains of brookies have been stocked to the politics behind proposed state environmental policies. If I can’t answer you I’ll do my best to research an answer — or I’ll just make it up. (Kidding, of course).

Hopefully, if I can’t answer it, one of our bloggers can.

As I said, I don’t profess to know it all, but there is power in numbers. Combine our collective experience and we will all be better for it.

I plan to share some of our on-line banter in future columns.

I can also share an unlimited number of photographs online, so I strongly encourage you to submit your pictures by e-mail to me at johng@denpubs.com or by snail mail to 14 Hand Ave., Elizabethtown N.Y. 12932.

Speaking of great photos, Jim Hotaling from the Willsboro Fish and Game submitted a picture of the club’s youth pheasant hunt that took place Sept. 26. The hunt is open to youth ages 12-15 and gives young hunters an opportunity to experience some pheasant hunting action behind experienced dogs and their handlers. Another is planned for Oct. 11. For information about the hunt, give Hotaling a call at 963-7430 or John Oliver at 963-4421.

Hunter’s screening scheduled The annual hunter ’s health screening which is offered free-of-charge to anyone who shows up with his or her 2009 hunting license will take place this year on Thursday, Oct. 22 from 5-7 p.m.

The screening is designed to give hunters a review of their overall health before they exert themselves in the woods in search of deer.

The health clinic will assess blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol and oxygen levels. Hospital staff will also check vision, height and weight, providing an overall health picture. Participants will also have an EKG reading taken, which measures heart health. A team of nurses and lab staff, led by Dr. Moisan, will conduct the health screening. They will then be able to discuss concerns and offer advice.

The hospital lobby will be filled with information related to hunting. There will be a representative from the Sheriff ’s Department offering free gun locks and the state Department of Conservation will be on-hand to answer questions. There will be safety information, recipes, prize drawings and snacks.

Salerno brothers Tony and Pat will also be on hand to answer questions and offer hunting tips. The Salerno family has produced a number of hunting videos and has been featured in national publications.

Ward Lumber to host 17th annual buck contest Ward Lumber Company is once again hosting its annual buck contest, though this year they have added a prize drawn at random for any size buck entered.

Anyone is eligible and need only take their buck to Ward Lumber in Jay during business hours to have it weighed and entered. Business hours are Monday - Friday, 7 a.m. - 5 p.m. and Saturday, 8 a.m. - 2 p.m.

A winner in each category will be selected after Dec. 5.

Each winner will each receive a $100 Ward Lumber Gift Card.

All hunters entering will be photographed with their bucks, and if you supply an e-mail address, they will email the photo to you. All contestants will also receive a baseball cap just for entering.

John Gereau is managing editor of Denton Publications and an avid outdoorsman. He can be reached at johng@denpubs.com.

WARRENSBURG — In an unusual show of solidarity, Adirondack-area politicians, environmentalists and state officials lobbied this week to preserve the traditional color scheme of signs designating landmarks, waterways and natural attractions in the Adirondacks and the Catskills.

For about 80 years, those roadside informational signs in the Catskill and Adirondack preserves have traditionally been brown with yellow letters, unlike other areas in the state and across the nation.

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has periodically sought to have those traditional signs replaced with new ones in the color scheme for national park markers — brown with white letters.

Oct. 1, a summit meeting about the signs with the FHWA included more than 40 people from the state Dept. of Transportation, the state Department of Environmental Conservation, regional politicians, the Adirondack Park Agency — and the Adirondack Park agency’s nemesis, the APA Local Government Review Board — and representatives of environmental groups including Protect the Adirondacks.

They all urged the FHWA not to require replacement of the familiar brown-and-yellow color scheme.

“The Federal Highway Administration has an overriding concern that they like to have consistency nationally,” said Warren County Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe, who also serves as Executive Director of the APA Local Government Review Road.

“But the yellow-on-brown signs really are identified with the Adirondacks.”

Monday, the Warren County Traffic Safety Board voted to urge the FHWA to retain the traditional color scheme of the signs. A similar resolution is expected from the county Board of Supervisors.

FHWA spokesman Jonathan Mueller said federal officials are listening to all parties and taking all input into account.

Adirondack-style road signs — those traditional brown signs with yellow letters — are an endangered species, since the Federal Highway Administration has been seeking to standardize sign style and colors nationwide. Adirondack environmentalists, local officials and state government officials have formed a rare alliance in their lobbying effort to keep the brown-and-yellow signs.

“The Federal Highway Administration and the state Department of Transportation are working together to determine the best options for signage within the Adirondacks,” he said, adding that quick recognition and safety are factors for choosing white letters.

But APA Executive Director Terry Martino, who sent a letter to FHWA defending the yellow letters, disagreed.

“Based on DOT expertise, the agency does not agree with the FHWA that the brown and yellow coloring presents a safety concern,” Martino said.

Adirondack Park Agency Chairman Curt Stiles said that periodically, the state Dept. of Transportation has been able to convince FHWA officials to retain the brown-and-yellow signs by successfully obtaining a waiver from the federal standards.

“I don’t know anyone who thinks white on brown is a good idea,” he said.

“We can win this.”

Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty said that replacing thousands of signs through the Adirondacks and Catskills — just to change the color of the letters — was a frivolous, costly idea. Each town in the Adirondacks would need to pay tens of thousands of dollars needlessly to make the

changeover, he said.

“This is another governmental waste of money that’s expensive to taxpayers.”

But state DOT Regional II Director Michael Shamma said that the FHWA was re-drafting their national standards as they do periodically, and they were likely to listen to the opinions of area officials.

The brown and yellow signs have been used since the 1920s by the state Dept. of Environmental Conservation to designate their facilities as well as natural landmarks. This DEC color scheme pre-dates all national parks, he said.

“Absolutely no one would deny that the Adirondacks and Catskills are very special places and those signs are part of our cultural heritage,” he said.

Monroe said he hopes that the FHWA officials respect that heritage.

“They should get the information out to the public then solicit opinion, rather than the normal governmental routine in which they determine policy, then seek public input.”

Jon Alexander, Assistant News Director of radio station WNBZ, contributed to this report.

Annual graveyard walks planned

Public invited to environmental forum

WARRENSBURG— The Warrensburgh Historical Society is holding its 9th annual series of 9th Graveyard Walks and Dinner With The Dead featuring actors and history enthusiasts portraying noted townspeople from past eras who are buried in the 160-year-old Warrensburg Cemetery. Attendees will find out the impact that John G. Smith, Lizzie Keays, Lewis Thomson, Mabel Tucker and Isabelle Cornell had on the town of Warrensburg, an event organizer said.

These five "ghosts" will be spirited around town, telling the interesting stories of their past lives in Warrensburg.

Graveyard Walks will be conducted at 7 p.m. sharp at the Warrensburg Cemetery on two consecutive Fridays. On Friday Oct. 23, the walk will be followed by a gourmet dessert buffet at the Cornerstone Victorian B&B on upper Main Street. The price for this event is $10 per person.

The second walk will be held Friday Oct. 30 and includes desserts at the Maher residence, 2 Cloverleaf Dr. (just north of cemetery). The price for that event is $6 per person. To reserve tickets for either event, call 623-3436. These walks are popular and space is limited, so call early. It is recommended that spectators wear warm clothing and carry flashlights.

On Sunday Oct. 25 at 6 p.m., a full course "Dinner With The Dead" will be served at Grace's Restaurant at The Griffin House, 3 Hudson Street. Diners will be visited by ghosts of the past between courses. Entree choices are Roast Pork Tenderloin, Baked Salmon en Croute, Chicken Dijon, or Penne Pasta with Pesto Sauce, Roasted Red Peppers, Black Olives and Spinach. Price, including tax and tip is $35. Call Grace's at 623-2449 before Thursday Oct. 22 for reservations and menu choices.

LAKE GEORGE — Regional conservation officials and Lake George Village Mayor Robert Blais has invited the public to the upcoming annual Water Quality Protection and Resource Conservation Forum set for Tuesday, Oct. 13 at the Fort William Henry Conference Center.

The event is sponsored by the 25 member organizations of the Lake George Watershed Coalition.

This year’s forum topic is “ Watershed Protection- Headwaters, Streams & Riparian Corridors.”

Attendees are invited to take an active part throughout the day.

Each session will provide ample time for questions and followup on the topic presented.

Sale From page 1 — we had a traffic jam in the roadway here,” she said. “Next year, we’ll bring more stuff.”

Event officials had expected a washout for this year ’s edition of the great sale, as rain was predicted throughout the weekend.

But while some were scared off by the forecast, the result was that traffic moved a little better, and the weekend was more manageable, said Lynn Smith, President of the Warrensburg

Physical Therapy center to hold open house WARRENSBURG — Adirondack Physical Therapy & Fitness is holding an open house Friday afternoon Oct. 16 to introduce area residents to their services and facilities.

Scheduled to be held from 4 to 6 p.m., all are welcome to attend, tour the facility at River Street Plaza and hear about how physical therapy can improve people’s mobility and improve one’s quality of life.

Refreshments prepared by Lizzie Keays Restaurant will be available at the event, which is being held in conjunction with Physical Therapy Month, observed in October.

The business serves people with a variety of issues, including all kinds of fractures and bone breaks, sports related injuries as well as dislocations of the disc and problems with a degenerative spinal conditions.

The enterprise was opened about two years ago by Natalie Barber, who is joined in the practice by two other physical therapists.

Adirondack Physical Therapy & Fitness may be reached at 6854220.

Chamber of Commerce, which for decades has sponsored the nationally famous event.

“I think we had about 30,000 shoppers over three days,” she said. It was a good turnout.”

Smith said vendors of inexpensive and moderately priced merchandise yielded solid revenues, but those marketing high-end antiques reported they had meager receipts for perhaps the first -time ever.

The chamber rented 137 spaces, substantially fewer than the 200-plus of prior years, as vendors continued their trend of seeking sites on private prop-

erty where they could set up for four days, rather than two as the Chamber allows.

Martin was one of those who did well at the sale — but perhaps it was due to the free entertainment she and her friends offered the shoppers, whether it was an impromptu vaudeville skit, a sly joke, donning 1930s furs — or a maneuver that might have been responsible for making the weekend so enjoyable for so many: her sunshine dance, which her daughter swore chased away the rain.

SATURDAY October 10, 2009

Burn Ban From page 1 The unanimous vote protesting the no-burn policy occurred at the Adirondack Park Agency Local Government Review Board meeting in Johnsburg.

Cathy Moses and Fred Monroe, top elected leaders of Essex and Warren counties respectively, voted for the resolution requesting that DEC continue to allow burning of brush up to 6" in diameter that local residents deposit at landfills.

Recently revised DEC regulations prohibit the municipal burning, but these rules allow towns to issue individual permits to residents of towns with less than 20,000 residents.

Moses said that prohibiting towns from centralized burning at a safe, monitored site while allowing individual permits to be issued boosts the danger of wildfires while likely causing the degradation of air quality. She serves as chair of the Essex County Board of Supervisors.

"This new regulation is insane -- allowing residents to burn but not allowing town employees to burn brush under a controlled situation at landfills just doesn't make sense," she said.

Fred Monroe, Moses' counterpart in Warren County, said that the new regulation was illogical and would place yet another burden on Adirondack towns in processing and disposing of brush residents take to local landfills.

Monday, DEC spokeswoman Lori Severino defended the new rule.

“With a limited number of individuals burning at separate times, there won’t be a great quantity of pollutants released at once, and it’s not going to be a huge problem, “ she said.

“Individuals burn on a much smaller scale than what a landfill would do.”

She said it was DEC’s intent to keep the air clean and limit the amount of carbon dioxide, smoke and particulates released into the air.

“The main reasoning hbehind this policy is to reduce harmful air pollution and avoid harmful wildfires,” she said.

But Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty, who also is president of the local fire company, said the new DEC regulation would likely increase wildfires, while creating an unreasonable burden on local fire agencies.

If residents burn the brush themselves on their own land, there will likely be far more calls reporting smoke conditions that local fire companies need to respond to, whether there's a true emergency or not. Plus, he said, more wildfires are likely to occur without the close monitoring that is routine at municipal landfills.

"This new regulation will run our fire companies ragged," he said. "This is ridiculous."

Severino, however said that if anyone is violating their permit, local police agencies and fire officers are empowered and expected to respond — in the absence of now-scarce DEC rangers.

Until two weeks ago, the town of Warrensburg burned brush on Fridays and Saturdays at their landfill.

While DEC is encouraging towns to grind up the brush rather than burn it, a commercial grade chipper that towns would need would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and likely add payroll costs to man the equipment, Moses said.

She also said that more people on the edge of hamlets would likely seek permits and burn brush on their property, bothering neighbors with breathing conditions.

She and Geraghty also said that that the boosted unsupervised

ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 19 burning by individuals might increase burning of household trash, which routinely creates hazardous smoke, including dioxins when plastic is burned.

"The DEC has created themselves a nightmare," Moses said.

However, a statewide ban on burning any trash also goes into effect on Oct. 14, but Moses said that if residents get a permit to burn brush, they are likely to throw trash on the flames, which can release mutagenic, carcinogenic and toxic smoke.

Geraghty said that DEC rangers — cut in number in recent years — wouldn't be able to properly process the permits and monitor the open burning.

Geraghty and Moses also said that a ban on municipal burning might mean more brush deposited on roadsides, which would mean more work and higher expenses for taxpayers who would be footing the bill for cleanup.

"The towns and local taxpayers shouldn't have to deal with this," Moses said.
