Seniors want town to keep giving $ for gaming trips

ELIZABETHTOWN

IN WARRENSBURG

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Local senior citizens aren’t happy their taxpayer-subsidized trips to a gambling parlor were discontinued — and they expressed their objections to the Lake George Town Board at their monthly meeting Monday Dec. 10.

A dozen seniors expressed their dissatisfaction that they are no longer driven monthly at the expense of the town to the Saratoga Casino and Raceway, commonly known as the Saratoga Racino.

“Our seniors enjoy and look forward to these Racino trips,” Lake George Senior Citizens Club President John Herzog said to the town board. “Transportation for the elderly is vital.”

Under the previous town administration, the town provided its diesel trolley for seniors’ trips to the Racino and other outings, Herzog said.

“Other communities support their seniors,” he said, “But we’re moving backward.

Herzog chided the board that they were the most affluent municipality in the

Santa brings joy, gifts to Chestertown

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Becky and Jim Tucci stood at the end of a long line in the Chester Municipal Center, waiting for the arrival of Santa Claus. Their children — Isabella, 5,Gianna, 3, and Nico, 2, had their hands full — they

were holding greeting cards they created to give to the jolly man whose generosity is legendary.

Becky Tucci looked at their excited expressions and smiled.

“The Chestertown Santa is better than the mall Santa, because he’s so much more personable,” she said.

Santa’s visit to Chestertown, a premier seasonal event in northern Warren County, is sponsored by Chester-

town Rotary Club. This year was the Rotarian’s 40th edition of the everpopular event.

The visit is considered unique in the North Country, because it features the presentation of a valuable gift, whether it’s a doll, model truck, robot, computer game, puzzle or educational toy.

Warren County leaders award bed tax grants

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY – Warren County leaders demonstrated solid support for upcounty transportation Monday Dec. 10 as they voted to award $26,000 to the North Creek Business

Alliance for its tourist shuttle service.

This occupancy tax allocation for the shuttle service represents a 63 percent increase over the county’s 2012 grant.

The Business Alliance has been seeking to purchase a compact bus or diesel trolley to replace the 5-pas-

senger electric golf cart it now uses to transport people at no charge through town — in an effort to boost economic activity.

This shuttle has been vital in getting people around North Creek, particularly from the train station to downtown enterprises, Alliance officials have said.

This shuttle service is extremely important in transporting visitors who arrive in North Creek as passengers on the Saratoga-North Creek Railway, but the existing electric cart can’t handle the 300 to 400 people who routinely arrive on the train, according to the Alliance’s grant application.

Property donated to Historical Society Area developer and Warrensburg resident Richard Emerson has donated 2.7 acres of riverside property to the Warrensburgh Historical Society.

Paul Gilchrist, president of the group, made the announcement Friday, Dec. 7 at the Society’s annual meeting and holiday dinner held at Lizzie Keays restaurant.

The 2.7 acres of property, located across the river from

the Grist Mill Restaurant, was the historical site of the Burhans tannery and John Smith’s sawmill and electrical generation plant, Gilchrist said.

Emerson had planned to build multi-story condominiums on the site, but the project ran into regulatory obstacles, Society officials said.

The land is assessed at over $30,000, and Society members said they were thrilled about the donation.

Gilchrist reviewed the activities and programs of the Society during 2012.

New this year was the exposition of old farm and logging machinery presented in October by Tom Davis at his property on Lamb Hill Road

in Diamond Point. The demonstration of his antique machinery was educational and quite well received, Gilchrist said.

The Society has continued building a relationship with Warrensburg’s schools, and the effort is lead by Mark Brown and Rosemary Maher, Gilchrist said. A year ago, John Burns’ high school environmental science students presented research projects on the history of commercial, manufacturing or business sites in town This year ’s students are working on their projects now, and presentations will be in mid-December.

Gilchrist noted that Delbert Chambers of Thurman has curated and presented several remarkable holiday exhibits at the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History. Last year, he organized the museum’s holiday exhibit “My Dolly,” featuring 70 dolls loaned by local citi-

Next year, an exhibit of doll houses is planned.

Gilchrist also noted that the Society held a major planning forum at in March to develop ideas for the future of the Historical Museum and the Society, and the session was productive.

The summer exhibit at the museum, “Rural Agricultural History” by Brittany Hastings, was authoritative, informative and well attended, Gilchrist noted.

Also new this year for the Historical Society was a croquet challenge held in August at the Warren County Rural Heritage Day at the county fairgrounds. This croquet game featured a friendly first-ever challenge amongst county supervisors, and six of them competed. It is anticipated that the event will be held annually.

The following day, the society’s annual croquet tournament and picnic was held and an accompanying raffle featured two Old Town canoes.

Gilchrist also observed that the Society’s annual

Town of Lake George ramps up invasives fight

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — The Lake George Town Board has backed up their chief executive’s commitment to curbing invasive species in Lake George.

Monday Dec. 10, The town council approved a resolution supporting mandatory inspection of all boats entering the waters of Lake George — and suggested the program should be paid through either a hike in county sales tax or a boost in boat registration fees.

The resolution proclaims support for Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson’s commitment to enact a law requiring inspection and certification of boats before they are launched — and if invasives are discovered, the vessels would have to be decontaminated. The measure also calls for the town and village of Lake George to cooperate on establishing at

least one wash station.

Responding to Dickinson’s urgings, Warren County Supervisors serving on two county committees unanimously passed a resolution recently to draft a similar boat inspection and decontamination law for all the lakes and ponds across the county.

Dickinson reiterated how action in 2013 is important to stem the encroachment of Asian clams, quagga mussels, and other non-native creatures and plants which are now choking out recreation and compromising water quality in hundreds of lakes across the U.S. “Go online and see about these invasives,” Dickinson said to townspeople attending the Dec. 10 meeting. “It’s really scary.”

Dickinson said either mandatory inspection or a moratorium on launching boats was necessary as a stop-gap measure to control the spread of the species

while efforts are underway to raise $2 million to bankroll control efforts, primarily covering shallow invested areas of the lake with benthic mats to smother Asian Clams.

He said that quick action was needed to prevent the infestation from becoming too large to manage.

He warned that in May, Asian Clams colonies existed on four acres, and by October, the nuisance clams had spread to 23 acres.

Dickinson said he and other county supervisors planned to solicit the support on the initiative from the leaders of all the towns and two other counties surrounding lake, then lobby state legislators and executive branch for their support in both enacting protective laws and funding invasives control measures.

The lake is owned by the state, yet they have balked at supporting a boat inspection and decontamination pro-

This May, leaders of local towns convened to pledge support for ridding Lake George of invasive species.

Dec. 10, the Lake George Town Board passed a resolution calling for mandatory inspection of all vessels for invasives — requiring decontamination if necessary — before the boats are launched on Lake George. The resolution suggests that the county sales tax be raised 1/4 of 1 percent or boat registration fees be hiked to pay for inspection and decontamination stations surrounding Lake George.

gram, he said.

“We have some momentum here,” Dickinson said.

“I’ll be asking for resolutions from every town as well as Washington and Essex counties.”

Essex County’s own fiscal cliff Don’t worry, be happy

T

he latest estimate of the world’s demise has humanity’s fate sealed on Dec. 21, the Winter Solstice. If we manage to survive, historians will no doubt write about how we avoided certain doom only to face another, equally apocalyptic threat—the dreaded fiscal cliff. Yes, we might finally see the culmination of our elected official’s inability to accomplish anything of benefit to the rest of us, and it all seems so surreal, so distant, so beyond our control.

But there is a way to get closer to the action, and all it takes is a trip to Essex County, home of the North Country’s own fiscal cliff debacle.

Essex County’s fiscal cliff is not quite of the same magnitude as its big brother, but its proceedings do reflect a similar indecisive bickering that has been playing out at the national level. There are a lot of numbers and figures and percentages involved, but the bottom line is, if the Essex County board fails to start thinking ahead, things could become much worse in the upcoming years, regardless of who’s in charge.

Essex County Manager Dan Palmer knows this, and he has officially removed himself from the equation as of Jan. 1. His announcement to retire came after he failed to convince county supervisors to accept a 3-year budget plan, and he isn’t going out without a few parting words. Palmer has warned the board that its current course, which will likely see the wounded budget haphazardly stitched together by the fund balance, is a dangerous one at best.

Here’s how it works: Essex County collects taxes from its citizens and uses that money to pay for all kinds of services.

There are things that have a known budget, like money allotted to pay county employees salaries, and there are things that are budgeted for, like road work, that might come in under that budget. The unused tax money is the fund balance, and it is particularly good for dealing with emergencies, such as the spring storm of 2011 and damage incurred by Tropical Storm Irene, which depleted the fund balance by $2.8 million last year.

Essex County’s current course will see it utilizing that fund balance money to the tune of about $7 million to balance the county budget and meet the tax cap. The $2.8 million that went toward post-Irene re-

pairs is eventually supposed to be repaid by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, but it should be put back where it belongs — in the fund balance. The same can be said for the other $4 million or so of fund balance money that is being used to keep the tax levy down. As Irene taught us, the fund balance can come in handy, but the current budget proposal would only leave about a $1 million in there if FEMA doesn’t come through, and that’s a scary thought considering the damage that has been incurred by storms in recent years.

The kicker here is that the county tabled one of the more solid proposals — raising the occupancy tax to 5 percent, a 2 percent increase. The increase might not be popular among hoteliers, particularly the small scale operations, who fear that the extra charge would result in a decrease in tourism. But would a 2-percent increase, which amounts to $3 more for a $150-anight room, really deter people that much?

It might be worth including something like that in the budget, considering County Treasurer Mike Diskin projects it will bring in $1.2 million.

The occupancy tax certainly wouldn’t solve all of Essex County’s problems, but it would exhibit a modicum of foresight on the part of Essex County supervisors. The time to patch holes and wait until next year to see if they’ve sprung a leak is long gone — now is the time for action and making decisions that will have positive and expected long-term consequences. Dan Palmer knows it, which is refreshing until you realize that is also why he’s retiring — he doesn’t have faith that the current board can accomplish this, and he doesn’t want to be standing next to that dam when it bursts.

At a recent meeting, Town of Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said that personnel is the elephant in the room, and that the county needs to consider consolidating some of its staff, which is probably true, but the real elephant in the room isn’t the pachyderm — it’s the people feeding it.

I

come from a long line of worriers.

As a youngster and even as an adult I found it difficult to understand why mom would worry about the smallest of things. When you’re young, life’s an adventure. Each day brings new opportunity. Today it may have rained but tomorrow is sure to be sunny and bright.

Tomorrow was always a new day, full of opportunity, new events that would shape the day and the world. Change was good. Change was exciting. Change was welcomed.

So why is it that as you age, not only do things start to sag, hair grows grey and recedes and your concern for things both in your control and beyond, begin to weigh heavy on your mind? Change is not so good. Change brings turmoil and confusion. Change is uncomfortable and triggers resistance.

Mom, and her mom before her, would stress out over the big news of the day as well as the every day tasks. Tested by the great depression, two world wars, an evolving cold war, Korean Conflict, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, assassinations, riots in the street and political corruption, they had plenty of big things to worry about.

Looking back their world went from one major crisis event to another. Despite their fears and concerns there was always an optimism that things would turnout okay. There was a happiness that calmed the underlining fears. They had faith, they had family, they had a society that somehow gave them an inner confidence.

They were told that they had nothing to fear but fear itself. So they went about the tasks of the days building their lives and their future, focused on their jobs, their family and their dependence on each other.

As I age I find myself more stressed than in my early years. Not only do I worry about the big issues of the day, national and international events, but even the little things seem to be a greater concern than they once did. There are plenty

of major issues to fret about as the world turns and there is always any Dan Alexander number of Thoughts from little things Behind the Pressline in life to bring about heartburn and sleepless nights.

Is worrying about life’s ups and downs hardwired into my DNA, a hereditary trait, or is it just a function of aging? Or, does it come about as you begin to realize your plans for the future don’t always work out given the ebb and flow of an ever changing landscape and with those you share the world.

A recent survey revealed that a resilient attitude may be the secret to aging successfully. In fact they believe a positive attitude may be more important to aging than good physical health. So there may be some truth to the old wives tale of worrying one’s self to death.

So the bottom line is this; Mayan calendar predicting the end of the world on December 21st of this year; fiscal cliff looming on the horizon; financial struggles; personal concerns; what to write in next week’s column…. Hey, bring em on.

There is little we can’t overcome if we approach things with a positive, can do attitude.

If we’ve learned anything through out time there will always be issues beyond our control and as mere humans we are fallible, destined to trip up. We only make things worse for ourselves if we dwell on the negative. We need to be responsible for our actions but we only go around once so we need to make the most of what we’ve been given, keep our focus on the future and our optimism high. Life is short. Every day is a gift, which is why they call it the “present.”

100 Years Ago • December, 1912 Sam Pasco, cornered & captured Sam Pasco, Thurman desperado and wild man, after being pursued by the Warren County Sheriff and his deputies, was captured without a struggle after breaking his parole and getting caught at it. He began serving his ten-year sentence Dec. 26, 1912.

He had his chance at freedom but lost it when he let his arrogance and his disdain for the law get the best of him.

Alvin “Sam” Pasco, the legendary Thurman bad man, who has been a fugitive from justice since Dec. 6, 1912, was captured by Sheriff T.J. Smith and deputies the evening of Dec. 19, 1912 at the farm of Alvin Combs in the town of Moreau, Saratoga County. The officers got the drop on Pasco before he was aware of their presence and his arrest was affected before the bloodshed which had been feared. Sam had been indicted by the grand jury in October for grand larceny in stealing timber from the lands of Lewis Everts in Thurman.

When he was arraigned before Justice Raley in the Nov. 1912 term of county court and pleaded guilty, he was sentenced to 10 years in Dannemora Prison but the sentence was suspended upon the condition that he would leave Warren County in 10 days and remain away for 10 years.

Pasco promised he would relieve the county of his presence and said he intended to go to Canada. He returned to Thurman while his parole was effective and after 10 days he was allotted yet another five days grace period to complete his preparations for departure. The limit was again reached and yet Sam continued to linger and he was seen around town armed with a rifle and making threats against townspeople who had incurred his wrath and dislike. He boasted that he had no intention of leaving the county and would shoot any officer who attempted to arrest him.

Judge Raley immediately issued a warrant for his arrest and placed it in the hands of Sheriff Smith. Pasco said that he would rather die than go back to Dannemora where he had already previously served one term.

It was assumed that he would make a desperate fight rather than submit to arrest.

Sheriff Smith learned that Sam had secured a position with the Griffin Lumber Co.y of Hudson Falls and was working on the company’s farm in Moreau getting out lumber.

Dec. 19, Sheriff Thomas J. Smith, Deputy Sheriff George Dougrey, William Hackett and Constable John Malan went to the Combs farm in an automobile and surrounded the house. Through a window they saw Pasco with a burning match in his hand ready to light a lamp. Sam lit the lamp and at the same time saw Dougrey through the window and before he had time to move, Hackett and Malan entered the room through an unlocked door, each with a drawn revolver. Hackett said, “Sam, throw up your hands” and the trapped man submitted without a struggle. Handcuffs were put on him and he was driven to the county jail in Lake George.

Monday morning he was taken before the judge and his lawyer T. Edward Singleton pleaded for mercy promising the judge that his client would immediately leave the county. The judge was having none of it and declined clemency for a second time and Sam was taken to Clinton Prison at Dannemora the day after Christmas, too late to celebrate the holiday there.

In the opinion of his fellow Thurman townspeople, among whom his whole life had been spent, he was deserving of no mercy as they believe that he is entirely without principle and is indeed a man to be feared.

His foolish defiance and apparent contempt for the law was a characteristic act of his bravado.

(Note: It is a fact of life that good men who do good deeds and sit peacefully at night before the fire are soon forgotten after their de-

mise. Benjamin Franklin once said that if you do not wish to be forgotten as soon as you are dead and rotten, manage to do something in your lifetime, either good or bad, that will be worth writing about long after you are dead and gone. Here it is 100 years later and we are still talking about the adventures of Sam Pasco, the Adirondack legend.)

Alice C. Thaw to wed The former Countess of Yarmouth, Alice C. Thaw, will marry Geoffrey W. Whitney of Boston. She married the Earl of Yarmouth on 1903 and divorced him in England in 1908, two years after her brother, Harry K. Thaw had shot and killed architect Sanford White in 1906 in front of a restaurant full of people at Madison Square Garden in New York city.

Her marriage to Mr. Whitney will probably take place in the spring and be one of the big society events of Pittsburgh where the former Countess is currently living with her mother. (Note: I told the outrageous story of the countess’ brother, the late Harry Kendall Thaw, whose lavish home was in Bolton Landing, in this column in the Nov. 17, 2012 edition of the Adirondack Journal.)

Killed in an instant Charles Brummagin of Glens Falls, while walking on the Hudson Valley railroad track between that city and Hudson Falls on the evening of Dec. !9, 1912, was struck by a trolley car and instantly killed.

He had just stepped from the other track to avoid a southbound car and walking with his head bent down and did not see the car that struck him. At 1 a.m. the next morning his brother-in-law, James Zeto, who recognized his clothing, identified the body. The unfortunate man left a widow and three small children.

Fort William Henry Hotel to reopen The new Fort William Henry Hotel at Lake George will reopen for the winter season on Dec. 21, 1912. The management of Mortimer M. Kelly and the D.&H. railroad will un-

for a while, then each child gets a chance to tell him what item they most want to open on Christmas morning. Every child will receive a gift from Santa at this free event.

Christmas charity prevails here In an annual charitable tradition, about 50 Christmas Baskets were prepared Saturday Dec. 8 for delivery to various households in town — and the residents of Thurman truly stepped up to the challenge of filling them.

Assembled by a dozen or more local volunteers, the baskets were delivered to people who would be alone on the holidays, to local elderly, and to families who have been facing challenging circumstances.

Many residents dropped off such items as homemade baked goods and other savory edibles. A troop of Brownie Girl Scouts made cookies and brownies — very fitting indeed Sheila Flanagan of Nettle Meadow Farm brought down some of her delicious chèvre, which added a fancy little touch to the baskets. Another resident made assorted miniloaves of bread which were hot out the oven and had such a savory aroma.

One person donated gourmet tangerines and juice oranges obtained at Trader Joe’s.

The baskets, which included non-perishable food items as well, were topped off with crafts created by local third-grade students. The Warrensburg Elementary pupils fashioned wooden spoons into charming reindeer.

Those who chose not to bake, had prior obligations or could not be there, made monetary contributions.

The many volunteers included Susan Jennings, Gail Needham, Paula Hubert, Karma Smith, Sally Feihel, Cheryl Kenyon plus Judd and Lisa, and others.

Susan said volunteering to assemble the baskets had a special meaning for her and brought back good memories, as she recalls that when she was in her youth, her parents Fred and Emily Martin were delivered a basket for several years.

I must say, one of the reasons why I love this small community so much is the way everyone gets together in a time of need.

The volunteers had a great time enjoying each other ’s company while assembling these holiday baskets To sign up for a family member or friend to receive a basket next year — or to receive one yourself, call Cheryl Kenyon at 623-9718.

Christmas Party coming up Break out your “Sunday best” and clean those camera lenses, because Santa Claus is coming to town —Thurman Town Hall that is. Jolly old Saint Nicholas is sure to delight children of all ages when he visits from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday Dec. 15. Once Santa arrives, he visits with the children

News from Thurman Town Hall The Town is now accepting letters of interest for an open position on the Board of Assessment Review. Anyone interested should submit a letter to the Town Clerk. Mail the letters to Thurman Town Hall, P.O. Box 29, Athol NY 12810; or via fax at: 623-4292.

The town Occupancy Tax Committee will be meeting at 10:30 a.m. Dec. 21 in the Town Hall to review the applications submitted for event funding. This is an open meeting and residents are welcome to attend.

The Thurman transfer station’s hours of operation are noon to 3 p.m.on Wednesday, and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

The required bags for household trash can be purchased either at the Thurman Town Hall or the town transfer station. The days and hours to purchase them at the Town Hall are as follows: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Mondays and Tuesdays, and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesdays. On Thursdays, see Sue Baker for garbage bags 9 a.m. to noon, and on Fridays, hours vary. Call first at 623-4588 to make sure they will be available.

Those who are having difficulty transporting their orange bags of trash to the transfer station are urged to contact Jim Desourdy at 623-4254 — he will take them to the transfer station for $5 per week.

Now is the time to be creative The Christmas holiday is just a wonderful time of the year for most, however some are less fortunate and this time of year brings stress.

Going back to old-time traditions is not only is fun and fulfilling, but it can also save some hard-earned cash. Perhaps using a skill you have to make a gift instead of purchasing it, or maybe putting fruit into stockings for your little ones to snack on while waiting to open their presents — both are good ideas. Making something as a gift is also very personal and thoughtful — and it also downplays the materialism that unfortunately has increasingly been associated with Christmas.

Going back to the simpler way not only relieves stress and tends to have more meaning, but it also just seems like the right thing for us to do.

Holiday activities in the hills Don’t miss your chance to hear Christian country recording artist Jay Witham in concert Dec. 16 at the Thurman Baptist Church. Witham will be performing at 12:45 p.m. and has pastored churches throughout New England and the Northeast since 1975.

The church members will be going out Christmas caroling on Dec. 22 at 6 p.m. and afterwards will be partaking of refreshments at Myrtle Buyce’s home. All are welcome.

Pastor Nathan and Amber Herrmann will be hosting a New Year ’s Eve party at their home on Dec. 31 at 6 p.m. and they invite the public to attend any of these events.

doubtedly leave nothing undone to make this one of the most successful and enjoyable seasons on historic Lake George.

A toboggan slide one-eighth of a mile long extends from the hotel to the lake. Two rinks, one on the tennis court and the other on the lake, each brilliantly lighted with real electric lights at night are available to the guests.

A large fleet of ice boats, some equipped with gasoline engines are also provided by the hotel management. The hotel’s hockey team will be composed of some of the finest players obtainable. Snowshoeing, skiing and other winter sports will be enjoyed. A vast marble-pillared porch faces the lake and tea is often served there so that the guests might sip their beverage and enjoy the magnificent view of the lake. The new hotel building is fireproof and pleasantly equipped and furnished.

New method to eradicate pests Disheartened housekeepers, weary of long struggles against the presence of bedbugs, cockroaches, fleas, clothes moths, ants, house flies, rats and mice, may take heart for the government agricultural department has found a remedy in hydrocyanic acid gas. It will drive human beings out of their homes but they can return later on and the nasty pests trapped inside the house can not.

News roundabout The revival meetings closed Sunday evening, Dec. 15, 1912 in Bakers Mills. The Rev. Frank Johnson and the Rev. Fred Perkins have currently left for Sodom where they will conduct future meetings.

Harry Pasco, a former resident of Thurman, who left two years ago to relocate in Davison, Michigan, was married Dec. 5, 1912 to Miss Estella Lambert of that place.

A carload of 1913 Ford touring cars has arrived at the Empire garage in Glens Falls.

The machines show a marked improvement over the 1912 model and are receiving much favorable comment. The most notable improvement is in the body and the machine sells for $90 less than the 1912 model.

Jackwax Party has long history Planning for the 2013 Jack Wax Party in March is now underway — and anyone who can help in any way, call me, Kathy Templeton, at 623-2967.

This event features great socializing, an all-you-can eat buffet and it’s topped off with a dessert of genuine jack wax, or maple syrup on snow. The event also annually features mountain music.

Jack wax parties have been held by North Country folks forever, and this confection, it has been said, probably originated with the Native Americans.

In a Thurman diary from 1930, the writer tells of a jack wax party held at Athol Methodist Church, which once stood between town hall and the Harris House.

This event raised funds for the church, but one year the call went out to help the family of a young local boy stricken by leukemia. The next year, the church had closed and the young boy's life had been lost. Organizers decided to carry on the tradition of hosting the meal, and to donate the funds to the American Cancer Society. This year marks 53 years that the dinner has been held for this purpose.

Greetings from our retiring judge Thurman’s Hon. Filomena Riviello would like to sincerely thank the people of Thurman for giving her the opportunity to serve as their Town Justice for the past four years.

Riviello adds that it has been truly and honor and privilege.

Upcoming activities and events The Thurman Quilting Group holds their meetings every Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the town hall. Bring your knitting, sewing, or quilting projects and make some new friends. For details, contact Myra at 623-2633.

The county-sponsored senior bus service to Glens Falls runs on the second and fourth Friday of every month. It will run Friday, Dec. 21 and is free to seniors age 60 and over.

This will be the last trip of 2012 and also the last chance to do some holiday shopping before Christmas. Those who wish to go, call Laura by Wednesday, Dec. 19 at 623-9281.

December 15, 2012 $500 to $5,500; the North Country Triathlon, doubled to $4,000; the Girls and Boys State Volleyball tournaments, doubled to $1,500; and UpYonda Farm, up 50 percent to $4,500 for their educational program series.

Bed tax grants from page 1 Alliance officials could not be reached early this week.

The grant application notes that the shuttle service, coupled with the railway, has been a key element in transforming North Creek from an isolated but historic hamlet into a destination resort town.

The document also notes the boosted economic activity and new jobs created by the railway and the shuttle, citing that full funding of the shuttle service would be responsible for generating 11,390 “bed nights,” or overnight stays in the upcounty region. The application also noted that obtaining a new shuttle was important for accommodating people with mobility limitations.

Johnsburg Supervisor Ron Vanselow commented that although the occupancy tax grant of $26,000 was $12,000 short of the Alliance’s request, it would allow for purchase of a shuttle of some kind to allow substantial expansion of the service. The town of Johnsburg has already pledged $10,000 for the shuttle operation for 2013.

In divvying up the occupancy tax money Dec. 10, county leaders allocated a total of $391,500 to help bankroll local events that are expected to bring overnight visitors into the area.

A committee of a half-dozen county supervisors took several hours to decide on the sum for each sponsoring organization.

Requests submitted approached $700,000, and the supervisors determined the grant sums in two rounds of consideration, amending a subcommittee’s initial recommendations.

Major events receive support Two of the county’s five major events in terms of overnight stays — Americade motorcycle rally and the Adirondack Hot Air Balloon Festival, received $50,000 and $25,000 respectively.

Two other main events had their funding reduced —the state high school boys basketball championship tournament received a grant of $30,500, or $2,500 less than their request to match last year ’s level. The Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce was awarded $19,000 for their World’s Largest Garage Sale event, a reduction of $1,000 due to their 2012 sale operating $400 under budget.

The Adirondack Nationals Car Show,

Some events see grants reduced Receiving decreases were two enterprises of the Bolton Landing Chamber of Commerce: Girlfriends Getaway, down $1,000 to $5,000; “Crossroads of the French & Indian War Encampment, down $1,000 to $9,000.

Also experiencing decreases were: Last of the Mohicans Outdoor Drama, down 21 percent to $16,500 — despite testimony that it generated 1,850 bed nights and the popular show won national awards; Lake George Winter Carnival, down $500 to $14,500; Gore Mountain Chamber ’s Adventure Festival, reduced 40 percent to $3,000; Lake George Performance Weekend, down 33 percent to $2,000; Lake George Restaurant Week, down 50 percent to $1,000; Lake George Chamber ’s Canadian Visitor program, down $500 to $3,500; and the Marcella Sembrich Opera Museum, down 25 percent to $1,500.

Special awards appropriated Among the Warren County supervisors reviewing occupancy tax grant applications Dec. 10 were (clockwise, from left): Edna Frasier of Hague, Dennis Dickinson of Lake George, Bill Kenny of Glens Falls and Ralph Bentley of Horicon.

which annually attracts capacity crowds to Lake George for two days, received $27,500, an increase of $2,500 over 2012 to help bankroll their 25th annual show in 2013.

Centurion Cycling, which received $20,000 last year, had their $15,000 request reduced to a grant of $11,500, because the group had a carryover of funds from lastyear ’s bicycle event, downsized after their 2012 request was made.

The Hudson Valley Volunteer Firemen's Association convention, funded with $20,000 or more in the past, was granted $17,500 despite a request for $40,000 and a claim that the group’s massive parades and conventions generate 10,500 “bed nights” in the area. The group is going to hold a convention in Queensbury rather than Lake George as has been traditional.

New appropriations slated The Hyde Collection was granted $18,500 to help publicize their new exhibit, “Modern Nature: Georgia O’Keeffe & Lake George,”

which is expected to draw people from around the world, generating a predicted 5,050 bed nights.

Newly funded for 2013 were: The Lake George Music Festival, $4,000 for their classical music concerts; the Lake George Elvis Festival, $6,500 for their 10th annual edition; Sunkiss Balloon Festival, $1,500; Gore Chamber ’s Outdoor Education Seminars, a sum of $500; Improv Records, $2,000 for their Haunted Halloween Bash and their “Creekend” fest set for April 26 and 27; Lake George Community Band, $2,500 for their Community Band Festival and their Concert series — both held in Lake George; and $2,000 to the lake George Chamber for its local Oktoberfest; and to Ed Zibro of Lake George, $3,000 for his expo of motorcycle accessories at the old county fairgrounds — entitled Warrensburg Bike Rally.

Receiving increases from 2012 were: the Lake George Triathlon, up from $11,000 to $12,000; the Adirondack Theater Fest, up

Events receiving special awards, to be drawn out of the county’s $320,00 treasury of reserve occupancy tax funds, are Big Top Circus, $15,000; Adirondack Sports Complex — The Dome for its softball tournament series, a sum of $25,000, and Eastern NY Marine Trades, $1,500 for their boat show.

Prior to the awards, event sponsors took their turn pitching their plans. Joe Altieri of the New York State Public High School Athletic Association, seeking a grant for the state volleyball tournaments, noted his group was bringing the state softball tournaments to Queensbury in 2014, 2015 and 2016. He said that his organization likes to bring tournaments to the area because of affordable accommodations, bed tax incentives, and “great local support” featuring enthusiastic volunteers.

Chris Dutcher of Americade noted that their rally was faring far better than its competitors elsewhere, but it required far more work in promotion and advertising to keep the attendance up in recent years, due to the national economic uncertainty.

Alexander Lombard of the Lake George Music Festival noted that his multi-week series represented a distinctive cultural attraction, attracting tourists of an upscale demographic to the area.

Letters to the Editor Lake George needs solid plan for future growth To the Adirondack Journal: In referencing the Dec. 8 article “Mayor seeks input over zoning, high rise hotels in Lake George,” writer unknown, “…many believe that high-rise hotels in the Village would alter the status quo” is far from the findings of The Lake George Citizens’ Group.

A six-story hotel alters the character of the Village in its Adirondack, lakeside, rural setting. The majority of the citizens in the com-

munity — residents and many business owners —are opposed to a structure six stories high in the center of the Village. A number of people believe it could be tolerated at the southern or northern ends.

The vast majority of the community believes and supports change in the Village however, it’s a matter of what that change should be. We are a developed hamlet in the Adirondack Park, but we have not stayed up with the times or needs of the current tourist.

We need a solid plan for the future before we grab on to a developer ’s idea just to get a potentially harmful, irreversible change.

Yes, we need investors, but let’s not just

Thurman EMS needs your support To the Adirondack Journal: How absurd!

Only a handful of people attended the Thurman Town Board meeting last week.

They were told that the majority of people in the town do not want taxes raised even if that means losing another service — this year, it’s emergency medical services.

When was the last time you got a credit card bill or a bank statement in the mail that did not show the right amount and you did not question it?

So, why is it that only a handful of people attended the most important meeting of the year in Thurman when the town council is determining the budget?

Why is it that the majority do not attend to question where their hard-earned money is going to be spent for the upcoming year?

You allow board members to decide how to spend your tax money and HOPE they do right by you.

When are you really going to start caring?

Is it when you call 911 and expect a dedicated member of the Thurman EMS or fire company to show up to help you?

I guess our society has blinders on, and if you can not get immediate gratification for spending that hard-earned dollar, apparently it does not count.

The holiday season is coming upon us fast; please look into the eyes of your beloved family members, friends and neighbors.

Then explain to them why the latest gadget or that extra cup of cappuccino was so much more important than taking that money to support the EMS agency that may one day need to be there to save their life or your own.

I believe people still care and have heart.

Sometimes, it takes disaster or trauma for many people to wake up from the all-too-

natural routine of life.

Your town budget this year only allocated Thurman EMS enough money for the ambulance payment which is turned right back into the town's hands. No other monetary support was budgeted for our dedicated EMS agency.

Please find it in your heart to send as much money now as you can to Thurman EMS. Other avenues can be researched on how to keep the agency’s doors open, or perhaps there’s a chance the town’s majority will stand up to require that the town board truly starts caring about the people they serve — those who pay the board members’ wages.

This is written as a Town of Thurman citizen that has had too many rude awakenings in my lifetime to know how important seconds count when an EMS agency responds.

Live a meaningful life, in which you care about the people that walk life with you and that you pass by every day — not obsessing over the next materialistic thing you can buy that is bought but soon forgotten. This message is not only to my community but to all that may be next to decide if a life is more important than the almighty dollar.

Do not take for granted that in our rural area, another town’s EMS company can reach local citizens in time, considering that the neighboring agency needs to give priority to their own community, like they should.

To all dedicated EMS workers, firefighters and Medivac Personnel in the region, Thank You for always being there in our many times of great need!

Chestertown Santa from page 1 Gazing at the lengthy lineup of excited children, Rotarian Rich Dwyer of Chestertown offered his thoughts.

“Families come from all over — North Creek, Schroon Lake, or wherever,” he said.

“When we hand out presents to these kids, I love to see their faces, it’s fantastic,” Dwyer said. “And for some of them, this will be all they’ll get for Christmas — and we’re happy to help out.”

Waiting in the hallway was Brenda Prosser of Pottersville, who brought her daughters Jolene and Loretta, her niece, her mother-in-law and grandchildren.

“This is something really special for the

www.adirondackjournal.com family to do together,” she said.

Meanwhile, Wayne Williams and Scott and Ruth Joseph and Wayne Williams of Adirondack Gospel Trio, performed traditional Christmas carols — Ruth on Violin, Scott on Guitar, Mandolin and Banjo, and Wayne on Guitar and French Horn, with all three contributing vocals..

Outside, Chris Boggia of Circle B Ranch conducted hayrides in his horse-drawn wagon.

Taking pictures of children with Santa, printing the photos and assembling them in mats for hours Saturday were Rotarians Bob Case, Artie Gangeri, John Hagmann, Al Muench, Jim Fregoe, David Schlansker, and Larry Hodgson, among others. The latter two were the primary photographers. In the

holiday spirit, Fregoe sported elf slippers and a joker ’s hat.

Hand-wrapping the presents this year, were Nancy Fregoe, Pat Vogel, Dawn Fregoe and Maureen Dwyer, among others.

Arianna Howe, 9, had a surprise for Santa when she sat on his lap and asked for a drum for Christmas. She presented Santa and Mrs. Claus with gifts — a tie for the big elf and a snowman for his patient wife.

After the rare gift exchange, Arianna headed into the hallway to listen to acoustic Christmas music.

Adirondack Journal - 9 “They’re always getting stuff for me, so it’s time I gave them something back,” she said.

Arianna passed by Kristy Mills, who was watching her son Joey, 3, open a gift from Santa of a toy car carrier.

As the youngster reacted with joy, Mills smiled.

“This is so great, to bring the community together, and provide this for the kids at no cost,” she said. “It gets the kids excited and into the holiday spirit before Christmas.”

During a holiday craft session held Saturday, Dec. 10 by the Chester Library, Abby Joseph, 12, adds some decorative touches to a gingerbread while her brother James, 10, ponders the next upgrade to the edible residence.

Teamwork, free-will shooting are keys to Burghers’ success

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com

In a fourth-quarter time out during a recent game against Fort Edward, Warrensburg High School basketball players listen to coach Bob Hummel’s tips on how to preserve their lead. Warrensburg won the game 77 to 55 under the mentorship of Hummel, who has served as a coach for Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

WARRENSBURG — Smiling, Kevin Geraghty scrawled some final data into a scoring book, snapped it shut and walked across the hardwoods toward the Warrensburg High School gymnasium lobby.

He had just witnessed a high-energy boys basketball game Friday Dec. 7 in which the Burghers combined a fast-moving defense and a freewheeling offense to defeat Fort Edward by a score of 77 to 55.

The athletic show Geraghty just witnessed was impressive, he said, noting it reminded him of years ago when Warrensburg was annually a top contender in the Adirondack League.

Geraghty ought to know — he’s been a scorekeeper at Warrensburg basketball games for 44 years.

“Our new coach is positive with the players and they like his coaching style,” Geraghty said about Bob Hummel, who’s served at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute as a basketball coach. ”Bob Hummel allows them ‘free will’ to shoot and they’re shooting well — and they enjoy playing together.”

This free-will shooting, taking opportunities rather than executing plays by rote, apparently paid off against Fort Edward.

No less than 27 points of the Burghers’ score was due to three-pointers — six Warrensburg player hit a total of nine threepointers.

Forward Tyler Wilcox said after the game he and the players appreciated Hummel’s flexible offense, which made playing basketball that much more fun.

“It’s also about pushing the ball down the floor, and controlling the tempo — not let-

ting the opponent set up their half-court defense,” Wilcox said.

Minutes after a post-game debriefing in the locker room, Hummel offered his thoughts of this auspicious start of the 20122013 basketball season 2-0 in the league, a record which three days later had improved to 3-0 after a 72-42 win over Bolton.

“Our players are definitely attentive and they try hard to do what I want them to do,” he said, noting they were positioning themselves to spread out the opponent’s defense, muscling inside for rebounds, and meeting his challenge on offensive rebounds: sinking one rebound shot for every two missed first shots.

Hummel praised Justin Baird for his performance in the game against Fort Edward.

Baird shot 16 of his 18 points in the second half.

“Justin drove it inside, shot well, or kicked it out his teammates so they could take shots,” the coach said. “He made really good decisions with the basketball.”

Hummel also praised Wilcox’s rebounding and sinking those repeat shots. Hummel added that after Wilcox committed several fouls, he controlled his play and was able to remain in the game and make vital contributions.

“He played really well in foul trouble, and this will serve us well later in the season,” he said.

Scoring was spread out well among the players, testifying to their teamwork and collaborative spirit. Backing up Baird were Shea Irish with 14 points, Wilcox with 10, Nick Perrone with 6 points, Adam Langworthy with 8 points, Nolan Maltbie with 6 — and contributing 5 points each were Jeff Bentham, Jake Nemec and Joe Brunelle.

Church plans Christmas gathering Open House set at Conservancy The Lake George Land Conservancy is hosting a Holiday Open House from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday Dec. 18 at its office at 4905 Lake Shore Drive. The public is welcome to stop in to meet the staff, enjoy tasty holiday treats, see a new slide show of beautiful Lake George images, and learn about current projects like Round the Lake Challenge.

Information will also be offered about the area’s preserves and trails, including the newest trails at Amy’s Park, Cat and Thomas Mountains Preserves, Gull Bay Preserve and the Schumann Preserve at Pilot Knob. Reservations are not required. For more information, contact Cornelia Wells at 6449673 or cwells@lglc.org.

Don’t forget the annual Christmas Bird Count sponsored by the Conservancy. "Volunteer citizen scientists" nationwide assist the Audubon Society in observing birds, and volunteers in the Bolton Landing and southern Lake George

The Solid Rock Assembly of God Church at 11 Church Hill Road is holding a Christmas gathering at 6 p.m. Sunday Dec. 16 in their fellowship hall. All in the area are extended a heartfelt welcome to enjoy a warm time of fellowship, music, games, dessert and coffee.

Up Yonda gets a small boost On Dec. 10, Up Yonda Educational Farm received a small increase in their support from the county through an occupancy tax grant.

Warren County supervisors decided to raise their annual bed tax stipend from $3,000 to $4,500 — and considering the valuable programs Up Yonda presents, we applaud the move. This marvelous community resource not only welcomes visitors, but hosts many school children through the region to learn about nature and ecological issues.

We at the Adirondack Journal would like to see the county’s support for Up Yonda boosted to pre-recession levels so the facility can restore the programs that were cut due to the tough economic times.

Pete Olesheski of Up Yonda Farm tells Kindergarteners from Johnsburg about maple sugaring in a session at Up Yonda Farm in March. The environmental education facility is considered a valuable resource for not only visitors but local families, with its nature walks, displays of wildlife, snowshoeing expeditions and educational sessions.

MCDONALD’S OF WARRENSBURG Warrensburg, NY • 518-623-3323 20955

Lake George Town Board member Fran Heinrich replied that while only a few seniors sought to attend the Racino, thousands of other town citizens wanted their property taxes kept as low as possible.

“We represent 3,700 people,” she said, noting that many property owners experienced financial stress paying their taxes.

“Some of our residents can’t pay their taxes, their health insurance, or tuition for their children to go to ACC,” she said.

Mentioning the insurance and liability problems with the town transporting seniors to remote destinations, Heinrich suggested that the seniors carpool in various club members’ cars. But several seniors replied that they can’t obtain a group discount that way, and they wanted to socialize on the way to the Racino.

Lena Chase, 95, said she could drive a 42-passenger school bus. She also said the Racino trips didn’t really involve gambling, because the facility staked each senior with $25 to start off with.

Heinrich replied that the seniors could hold bake sales to hire a licensed driver to pilot the town 15-passenger bus.

That vehicle was recently acquired to replace the trolley, Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson explained, because the trolley wasn’t built for prevailing speed on the I-87 Northway — the only practical route to the Racino and other outof-town destinations.

The trolley was also aging and prone to breaking down.

Dickinson said, noting that he didn’t want to see the seniors stranded.

The trolley has since been limited to leisurely in-town trips, he noted.

Kitty Bernardo, a member of the club, said the 15-passenger shuttle bus the town was now providing for the seniors was unsafe, as it had bench seats that were longitudinal like commuter trains, rather than standard bus seating.”That bus has no railings, no handholds — it is not safe,” she said.

“Seniors could fly across from one side to another and go through a window.”

Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson replied that he would meet with the seniors at their next club meeting Jan. 3 to hear their concerns and help them meet their needs. He said later the own’s shuttle bus could easily be retrofitted with seats in a standard row arrangement.

“The town is invested in our youth and senior citizens,” he said. “We have your interests at heart.”

Progress on youth program The board heard from town councilman Vinnie Crocitto that he was working with other town Youth Commission members to comply with the state Health Department requirements for the town summer recreation program for youth. State officials cited the town last year for not applying for a “Summer camp” permit, and for not having a Medical Director on staff, for not having an official safety plan, nor obtaining immunization and medical records on children attending, as well as keeping a medical log and provid-

ing for special medical and dietary needs — requirements that local officials have said are unwarranted.

Crocitto said that the town might be partnering with the Lake George School District in expanding their bus garage, now used as a headquarters for the summer program due to its proximity to tennis courts, sports fields and the lake. He said that such an expansion might allow the commission to use the garage as a summer youth program headquarters.

Grants awarded to local events The board also appropriated occupancy tax grants to three events — a sum of $1,500 for St. James’ Episcopal Church’s Hot Rod Happening; up to $2,000 to Sean Quirk’s East Coast Snocross Races set for Jan. 26 and 27 in the Charles Wood Park; and up to $2,000 to Norm Dasher ’s annual Lake George Performance Weekend.

In other business at the meeting, the Lake George town board: • Heard from board member Marisa Muratori that the town was establishing an annual Community Stewardship Award, and that nominations were now being sought; • Were informed that progress was underway on permits and plans for the new Price Chopper just off Northway Exit 23; • Noted that two vacancies on town panels are open as of Dec. 31 — a seat on the Planning Board to be vacated by Ed LaFerriere, and a seat on the Board of Assessment Review, occupied by Thomas Roach for 27 years. Dickinson praised both men for their dedicated service through the years; •Voted to raise by $92 an annual sum of $1,808 paid to employees who opt out of town-bankrolled health insurance; •Approved purchase of a new 3/4-ton pickup truck with a plow, on state contract, for $34,251; • Voted to adjust caps on employees health insurance to partially offset the boosted premiums the employees were facing this year. Dickinson noted that without the adjustments, employees would be receiving from $500 to $1,459 less in take home pay.

Dickinson said that the adjustments would cost the town taxpayers about $16,000.

“We appreciate the job our employees do, and we don’t want to lose any of them.”

The board voted to enact the changes.

This kind of toy story could spoil your Christmas forever shaun@denpubs.com NORTH COUNTRY—There’s nothing like a little lead poisoning to ruin the holiday spirit.

But this time of year doesn’t have to be wrought with danger, as long as consumers know what to look for.

To help, the Vermont Public Interest Research Group released its annual holiday toy guide, Trouble in Toyland, and tried to spread a little holiday awareness this season.

Lauren Hierl, VPIRG’s environmental health advocate, said the study was conducted by a team of researchers who test various toys for hazards such as choking, toxic chemical content and loud noise levels.

VPIRG also works to strengthen regulations on toy manufacturers, particularly

where toxins are concerned.

“There are some regulations for toys on the federal level, but there is a need for broader regulations of these things,” Hierl said. “These are things that adults shouldn’t be exposed to, either.”

Chemicals like lead, phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA) can’t be seen, but they can cause lasting damage, especially on a developing child’s body.

“We’ve tackled some of the chemicals, but there are more than 84,000 chemicals on the market today, so it’s really hard to do them all one at a time,” Hierl said. “Most of the ones we focus on are the chemicals of concern that bioaccumulate, so they are persistent in the environment and they stick around in our bodies.”

Hierl said that the chemicals aren’t put in toys with the intent of harming children, but

that doesn’t make them any safer.

For example, lead is cheap and abundant, and is often used in products such as toys, jewelry, paint, hair conditioner and air fresheners.

Exposure to lead has been linked to health problems that include learning disabilities, lack of muscular coordination, decreased fertility and memory and concentration problems.

Phthalates are used to soften plastics and increase their flexibility and can be found in products like clothing, cosmetics, perfumes, food packaging and toys.

They are classified as endocrine disruptors and have been linked to health issues that include birth defects, reproductive damage, genital abnormalities in young boys, and decreased sperm mobility and concentration in men.

BPA is a common additive in some plastics that is actually a synthetic estrogen that was developed as a pregnancy aid.

BPA can be found in plastics such as baby bottles, water bottles and plastic food containers and has been linked to health problems including reproductive disorders, cancer, increased health effects associated with

aging and developmental and behavioral issues.

“It really is one of these things where the more you learn the scarier it is,” Hierl said.

Aside from doing research, one thing consumers can do to protect themselves and their families is look at the recycle symbols on a product before purchasing it.

A recycle symbol that contains the number three, six or seven should be avoided because it might contain chemicals that have nasty side effects.

Potential dangers in toys aren’t just caused by toxins, though, and there are other things that parents can look for to protect their children.

Toys that make noise can cause hearing damage in children.

Toys with small parts can also create a choking hazard, especially in young children. Hierl said an easy way to avoid buying something that could obstruct a child’s airway is to refrain from buying toys that contain loose parts that can easily fit into a toilet paper tube.

Little magnets, plastic game pieces and marbles should all be avoided for children under the age of three.
