This panel was awarded tens of millions of extra dollars due to their plan being judged as one of the best among the state’s 10 councils. The Capital Region council’s area, which includes Glens Falls and War-

QUEENSBURY — While some people are muttering about an uncertain economy, Warren County is experiencing booming retail sales. How much of a boom? The county’s sales tax revenue for 2012 is likely to be the highest on record, county Treasurer Michael Swan predicted on Monday Dec. 24. As of this last week, the county collected $42,613,546 with several weeks of 2012’s revenue not yet collected or reported. The hefty sum represents a $1.1 million yearto-date increase over 2011, or a 2.9 percent hike. A total of $3,309,384 was collected on November ’s sales, a solid increase over 2011. Warren County’s leaders budgeted $42.1 million in sales tax revenue for 2012, and with a month yet uncollected, the revenue has already surpassed 2012’s total by $500,000.

New Year’s Polar Plunge moves to new beach on Lake George urged to bring a towel, a robe or outerwear, and perhaps most important, sneakers or water shoes to protect feet, Nichols said. The event has been moved from Shepard Park Beach for the first time in the event’s colorful history because benthic mats intended to smother invasive Asian Clams are covering the beach and shallow waters at the Shepard Park shoreline. The mats — secured by rebar and sandbags — are to stay in place until spring to be effective in killing off the invasive species. Net proceeds of the registration fee go towards offset-
thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Whether it’s a way to cure a hangover, prove one's bravery or just meet people, the New Year's Day Polar Plunge in Lake George has become a tradition for revelers in the region — as well as capturing some national attention. Now celebrating its 40th year, the event is not only notorious — it’s mentioned in Wikipedia — but it’s downright huge. The past several years, as many as 2,000 people have charged into the waters, so many that the village leaders felt it was necessary to establish a law regulating mass swimming events to protect public safety. The event has also served as a way people express their creativity and humor, through bizarre antics and costumes. The polar swim is like Lake George’s Mardi Gras — and the infectious spirit of the festive event has caught up people of all ages who enjoy the party atmosphere. This year ’s polar plunge is moving from its traditional site of Shepard Park Beach to a venue on Beach Road — either the state’s Million Dol-

MAD RUSH INTO FRIGID WATERS: The first dozen of thousands of revelers head into the waters of Lake George during the 2010 edition of the annual First Day Polar Plunge. This year’s event is scheduled for 1 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 1 on the shoreline off Beach Road — a new site for the 40-year-old event. Registration starts at 10 a.m. at Duffy’s Tavern.

lar Beach or the “Dog Beach” just west of it, according to Nancy Nichols, co-chairman of the New Years Day Polar Plunge sponsor, the Lake George Winter Carnival Committee. Also, the swim event has been moved to 1 p.m., with each additional wave of swimmers past the first 500
charging into the lake each half-hour after that. Registration begins at 10 a.m. at Duffy’s Tavern on Amherst St. The $10 fee buys a commemorative shirt — and for an extra $1 this year, revelers can obtain a First Day button that procures discounts at area restaurants and stores.
Also new this year is a shuttle bus to transport people through the village to the plunge’s new site, and a changing tent — revelers are

A portion of the revenue is also going to local food pantries, to help families in need, Nichols said. “We extend a warm welcome for everyone of all ages to attend and have lots of fun,” she said. “And bring a heated towel if you have one!” Check updates on the Polar Plunge on the Winter Carnival’s hotline at: 2400809 or posted on their website, www.lakegeorgewintercarnival.com.

Warrensburg Central to outsource school meals By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
During a recent lunch period, students move through the lunch line at Warrensburg High School. The Warrensburg Central School Board recently voted 4-3 to turn over their entire food service operation to Aramark Corporation, and the changeover is to occur Jan. 3. Aramark representatives pledged last week that they will be expanding the food options now available to students. Photo by Thom Randall
Aramark was the only firm to submit a formal bid, although Chartwells Inc., which handles Fort Ann Central’s food service, ini-

could access those benefits at qualifying retirement age, he said. Warrensburg Central’s food service operation has cost about $400,000 per year, of which about $350,000 is reimbursed through state and federal aid, leaving a $50,000 average annual deficit for local citizens to shoulder through property taxes, Lawson said. The contract with Aramark specifies that they conduct the cafeteria and kitchen operation on a break-even basis without any local taxpayer subsidy. Some area school districts with outsourced food operations have reported that their contracted firm has not only saved the taxpayer deficit, but paid a cash rebate back to the district. Private enterprise is able to run the operation at a lower cost primarily by curtailing or eliminating employee benefits like state retirement benefits — now costing 21 percent of employees’ salary and generous health care coverage, school officials said. Lawson said the public employees union representing the District’s present food service workers is asking for severance pay for the workers, but that the issue was under negotiation. School administrators have noted that private firms not only save districts money, but they conduct rigorous food-safety training, and have specialists that oversee compliance with nutritional guidelines.
Early rumors circulating that the WCS cafeteria would begin, under the new regime, to serve prepackaged food were false.

tially showed interest in operating Warrensburg’s cafeteria and kitchen. Early rumors circulating that the WCS cafeteria would begin, under the new regime, to serve prepackaged food were false, Czyzak said. “We’ll be cooking all food on site like the existing cafeteria operation,” she said. “We’ll be looking to enhance the food operation and give the kids more options.” Under the school district’s management, the cafeteria was offering hot meals as well as prepared salads and a sandwich option. Czyzak said that Aramark might be expanding choices while making sure that all meals offered met U.S. Department of Agriculture nutritional guidelines. Lawson said the savings under Aramark’s management would be reaped by not having to pay full retirement and health insurance benefits, as swell as establishing “a shrunken pay scale.” Warrensburg had employed nine food service workers, six of whom worked four hours or so per day. Three others work between 6 and 7 & 1/2 hours per day. Starting wage was $8.36 per hour, increasing to about $11 per hour after 20 years. Lawson said that the cafeteria and kitchen employees would be retaining their accrued retirement benefits under the New York State Employee Retirement System, subject to their years of employment.

WARRENSBURG — Due to a recent split decision by the local school board, Warrensburg Central School District will soon be turning over its kitchen and cafeteria operations to private enterprise. The changeover, occurring as of Jan. 3, is anticipated to save taxpayer money, but cut cafeteria employee job benefits. Taking over the cafeteria operations will be Aramark Corporation, which handles food operations in 50 school districts in New York State as well as colleges and various institutions across the nation and internationally. Aramark regional managers were on site for several weeks in December reviewing operations of the Warrensburg cafeterias, which serves breakfast and lunch to about 785 students. Warrensburg Superintendent of Schools Tim Lawson said that the switch to Aramark will save at least $50,000 annually — but food service workers’ hours are likely to be curtailed and most employee benefits will be slashed if not eliminated. Aramark regional manager Noreen Czyzak, at the school last week, said that all present employees were offered jobs, and all had accepted the offer so far. “We absolutely believe in retaining community members,” she said. Aramark is rehiring for the cafeteria manager position held by Linda Bennett, who retired this month after 30 years of service. The Warrensburg Central Schools Board of Education voted Dec. 3 to hire Aramark for a one-year contract, with a four-year renewal option. Next December, the school district and Aramark both must agree to renewing if the arrangement is to continue. The board voted 4-3 on Dec. 3 to approve the switchover to Aramark. Voting in favor were board members Laura Danna, Beth Callahan, Linda Baker Marcella and Doug West. Voting against the changeover were Diane Angell, Paul Weick and John MicGlire.

Cougars’ stellar season advances with win over Whitehall guard and is a “workhorse on defense,” the coach said. Iain Underwood stepped up from Junior Varsity and has been gaining valuable experience. Against Whitehall, Humiston said, Underwood put in his best performance ever. Nick Sapienza, he noted, is a “phenomenal” basketball player that is difficult to defend. “I’ve got ten kids who work really hard, and I can play them anywhere on the court — we have no weaknesses,” Humiston said. “They’ve been battle tested — this year they can step up and make the big shots down the stretch.” Their athleticism is due to playing together for years in team camps and open gym, Humiston continued. “Their work together behind the scenes has paid off in their chemistry,” he said.

thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Racking up one victory after another, the North Warren Boys Basketball team is working toward one of the best seasons in recent history. Friday Dec. 21, excited fans poured out of the North Warren gymnasium sporting smiles after they witnessed yet another action-packed game — in which the boys varsity team doubled their opponent’s score. Combining hot shooting from a wealth of players and aggressive defense, the Cougars defeated the Whitehall Railroaders by a score of 84 to 37. The game boosted their season record to 6-1 or 5-1 in the ultra-competitive Adirondack League. The turnovers forced by the Cougar defense, including deflected passes, led to the high scoring — accomplished by no less than nine players. Sophomore Nick Sapienza led his team with 18 points, backed up by Senior Ethan Schenke with 15, Nick’s older brother Anthony Sapienza with 12, Cross-Country phenomenon Junior Ian Underwood with 11, Junior Justice Parker with 10, Senior Robert French with 5 and Junior Josef Strauss with 5, plus both Junior Robert Wallace and Sophomore Jacob Dunkley with 4 points. Junior Dan Hill, while not on the scoreboard, contributed in the effort as well. Anthony Sapienza, Schenke and Strauss each scored a three-pointer. Cougar Coach jason Humiston said this depth in player talent is a key element of the team’s success in 2012.. “We’re hard for opponents to defend,” he said. “They can’t focus on one or two players because we’ve always got five guys on the floor that can hurt them.” The team’s up-tempo game effort was no less than incredible, as the Cougars outscored Whitehall 57-17 in the second and third quarters, Humiston said. “Our defense has been phenomenal this year,” he said. “Against Whitehall, we boxed out well and every shot of theirs was contested.” Leading up to the Whitehall contest was an 80-52 win Dec. 17 over Hadley Luzerne, a 49-47 defeat of the talented Fort Ann team on Dec. 14, and a 80-52 win Dec. 14 over the evercompetitive Corinth. In the game against Fort Ann, the Cougars engineered a dramatic late-game rally to win. North Warren trailed 43-34 after three quarters, but outscored the Cardinals 15-6 to cap-

ture the key league victory. Ethan Schenke hit two consecutive 3-pointers with about a minute left to give North Warren its winning margin. Against Fort Ann, Nick Sapienza scored 15 points, Schenke followed with 12, Anthony Sapienza scored 7, Robert French contributed 6, Justice Parker tallied 5, and Iain Underwood and Robert Wallace scored two each. After the Whitehall game, Humiston mentioned a few of the players’ contributions: Ethan Schenke serves as point
ARGYLE — The Burghers put forth a valiant effort Friday Dec. 21 against the number-one ranked D-division boys basketball team in New York State. The Burghers held Argyle to 19 points in the first quarter, but the Scots’ offense gained traction afterwards. Joey Lufkin of the Scots tallied 37 points and eight rebounds to lead Argyle in the win. The Scots outscored Warrensburg 6227 in the second and third quarters to put the game out of reach. Justin Baird led Warrensburg with 13 points, followed by Nick Perrone with 12, Shea Irish and Jeffrey Bentham with 11. The ultra-hot Lufkin hit five three-pointers, and four of his teammates hit one each. Scoring treys for Warrensburg were Justin Baird with two, and Bentham, Perrone and Irish with one each. With the win, Argyle moves to 7-0 for the season and Warrensburg, down a notch to 3-3 in the Adirondack League.
Lake George 64, Fort Edward 42 FORT EDWARD -- Lake George advanced their unbeaten record Friday Dec. 21 as they defeated Fort Edward 64 to 42. Sophomore Joel Wincowski led Lake George with 16 points and Senior Zack Zayachek added 13. Contributing were Senior Greg Rosenthal with nine points, Seniors Connor McCoy with seven, Alex LaBruzzo with six and Tyler Prime with three, plus Senior Nate Fidd, Junior Tyler Brown and Junior Matt Bureau with two apiece. Wincowski tallied four 3-point goals, followed by Zayachek’s 3 and Prime’s one.
Letters to the Editor L. George should support seniors! To the Adirondack Journal: Congratulations, you did it, sensationalism at best. All I asked for at the town meeting to possibly reinstate the monthly trip to the Racino and the $500 per year to help defray some expenses in the operation of the Lake George Senior Center with incetencials (sic), which by the way, was discontinued by the new administration. The seniors never asked for any subsidies from the town to go gambling, unless you consider a once a month trip to Saratoga Racino a heavy financial burden to the taxpayers and the town of Lake George, you have my sincere sympathy. According to your claims, it seems the town is in a worse financial position than the seniors were aware. Our apologies! You also wrote, as per a board member, the monies involved, would better serve the citizens of the town of Lake George by applying it to citizens who can't pay their taxes, insurances, mortgages, their children's college tuitions, medical bills, etc..... Sorry, we didn't realize the L.G. Senior Citizens were such a burden to our community.

local seniors to the Saratoga Racino. Particularly in tough economic times — when taxes are increasing yet many people have lost income and are stressed to pay their bills — citizens are indeed questioning the role of government and why it should pay through property taxes for recreational activities for a relatively few local citizens. They argue that such activities perhaps should be paid through voluntary donations rather than taxes, which are involuntary. Also, please note that our article did mention your statements supporting the trips, as well as observing that the seniors received a stipend from the Racino for gaming purposes, thus weren’t necessarily gambling with their own money. Please note that we at the Adirondack Journal are committed to supporting our area seniors and we have done so through covering their activities quite closely — and we fully intend to continue doing so. There’s no question that our seniors have through the years made considerable contributions to our community and our nation!)
New Wbg. health center: added space for pediatrics To the Adirondack Journal: We are pleased that the Adirondack Jour-
nal is keeping the public informed about the changes and improvements coming with the new Warrensburg Health Center — “Warrensburg Health Center plans revealed,” Dec. 1 edition. One area that wasn’t mentioned in the article is our pediatric program, which serves youngsters from many communities. Each year, the Warrensburg Health Center has 11,000 patient visits from children, adolescents and teens. More than 4,000 of these visits are sick youngsters who are seen, without appointments, in the health center ’s urgent care department. Pediatricians are available at the health center five days a week. To make sure that we can take care of everyone, the new health center will include more exam rooms and improved space. We hope that our patients and their parents are as excited about the coming changes as we are. Sincerely, The Pediatric Team: Eugene McTiernan, MD Anjana Poonthota, MD Christina Kay, FNP Judy Budner, RN Lori Bradway, LPN

However, if you wish to crunch numbers, let me say this: every citizen 55 and over, and I feel confident in saying that, paid more taxes, and contributed more to charities than citizens 54 and under in their lifetime. Also keep in mind, the senior citizens were here before you. They fought in wars, and built our country, and now we want to criticize them for wanting to spend some of their social security at the Racino if they so choose? Oh yes, I forgot, they should pay someone's college tuition? I feel your write-up was a slap in our face and a lack of respect to the senior citizens of Lake George, and if this is the way our society is moving, God help our children! Sincerely, John H Herzog President Lake George Senior Citizen (Editor’s Note: Our article merely reported the facts and various opinions aired at the Dec. 10 town board meeting on the issue of the townsupported gaming trips for seniors.

omeone said, in the wake of the horrific tragedy that claimed the lives of 26 individuals in Newton, Connecticut, 20 of them children, that the families had likely already purchased Christmas gifts for the deceased. With the holidays here and the nation not only still in mourning but gripped by a bitter debate centered around guns, it is difficult not to consider how intensely painful it must be for those families right now. It is healthy to grieve, and it is alright to be sad, even angry, but another important thing to remember in all of this is our own loved ones. We should do this year round, but now especially, during the holidays and in the wake of tragedy, pull them close and tell them how much they are loved and cherished. It is not fathomable for many of us to imagine the holidays without our loved ones, and since we do have them here with us, make an extra special effort to tell them, not only that they are loved and cherished, but why they are so important to us and how they fill us with light and love. Also, reach out to neighbors and tell them they are valued, even loved. And not necessarily more importantly, but important all the same, reach out to individuals who are not only alone but who might be struggling. Let those individuals know they are valued, they are noticed, they are heard and they are important too. Since the massacre in Connecticut, much discussion has centered around individuals in need, specifically those with mental health concerns, and how they are not receiving adequate care, how the system is failing them. Let’s not, as a community of caring individuals, fail them either. If anyone knows of an individual who is alone, who might be struggling, who perhaps is avoided by many because he or she seems to also avoid everyone, offer a smile, a handshake, a hug, perhaps some kind words to show such people that they are cared for and important. Often, some people struggle through horrific circumstances in life and walk around thinking they are unimportant and no one cares about them, and that simple act of caring can, at times, be enough to push that individual toward a path of healing. Try to listen if someone you offer kindness to wants to talk. Many people feel they are never listened to, and for them, all they might need is some small form of acknowledgement, something slightly more than that courteous hello or how are you today. It’s the holidays, and no matter what you believe this time of year, it seems that no one would likely be disagreeable to a little love and compassion. It might make more difference in the world than you realize.

Ring in the New Year 2013
I
don’t know about you, but I’ll be happy to turn the page on 2012 and look forward to the optimism 2013 will ring in, a few hours from now. 2012 had its moments but by and large it was filled with more bad memories and anger filled drama than we’ve experienced in the last decade. As we close out the year we’ve yet to resolve the fiscal cliff and all the battles that come with the looming debt, tax rates and out-of-control spending. But then, on the positive side, if you’re reading this we’ve survived the Mayan Calendar prediction that the world would come to an end at 6 a.m. on Dec. 21 so from that perspective one could assume 2012 could have been worse. It just seems like 2012 left us hanging in so many different ways. The election didn’t seem to resolve any issues. The economy hasn’t shown any clear direction toward recovery or recession. Gasoline prices continue to ebb and flow at the upper limits of way too high. Health care hasn’t gotten any cheaper and there still appears to be as much ranker over where the Affordable Health Care Act will take us, as bureaucrats continue to interpret and draft the legislation which will likely be debated in the courts for years. Recovery from Hurricane Sandy’s effects on the east coast has still left many homeless and without a clear vision of their future. FEMA funds and insurance coverage has been slow reaching those affected communities and the economic effects may take years for those impacted to fully recover. On the world scene Benghazi, Iran, the Middle East, North Korea and Afghanistan continue to be trouble spots and pose dangerous threats to world stability in addition to the financial crises in Spain, Greece and other European countries. Facebook has yet to live up to its record IPO offering providing a return on the investments made by many who sought to acquire the darling social media company. Groupon sees its popularity slumping and even one of the world’s largest
cruise ships, the Coasta Condordia, that ran aground back in January near Giglio Island, Italy, still sits precariously on its side awaiting a final outcome on its Dan Alexander removal. Thoughts from Behind the Pressline Of course our year was brought to a close with the tragic events at Sandy Hook Elementary School where 26 innocent lives were taken in a few short minutes by a young gunman. That on the heels of the gunman in Denver who killed 14 while they watched the newest Batman movie. These shootings and others not involving as many casualties have sparked new interest in gun and assault rifle legislation which has resulted in a massive buying frenzy for guns, assault rifles and ammunition. For all these reasons and more I’m looking forward to turning the page on 2012 and hoping that we can begin to address many of these issues that cry out for resolution, cooperation, understanding and compromise. Our country is craving some feel good uplifting news that begins to send the signal that we are on the right path and better days are ahead for all her people. Adversity they say builds character and during the last several years we’ve seen our share. Certainly many in our country have seen far, far more than its share, but if we’ve learned anything from our past we know we must forge ahead, accepting the trials we face and learning from the events of the day or we are destined to repeat our errors of the past. On behalf of all of us at Denton Publications and New Market Press we sincerely hope your 2013 is full of prosperity and joy for you, your family, your community, our country and this small planet we share and call home.

100 Years Ago - December 1912 Same name, probably no connection Mrs. Lizzie Blow of 24 Third St., Glens Falls, lies in the hospital in that city suffering from six knife wounds in her shoulders and one in the back of her head, inflicted by her husband, George Blow, after a quarrel they had on Monday night, Dec. 30, 1912, near the intersection of South and First Streets. Mrs. Blow remonstrated with her husband for whipping their 18-year-old daughter, Mabel and Blow became so enraged that he seized her by the collar and plunged the knife into her shoulders six times. She screamed for help and he threatened to cut her throat if she did not keep still. Driven by desperate fear, the woman managed to break away from her husband and ran screaming across the street in the direction of the business section of the city. Faint and bleeding, the injured woman staggered inside a nearby house and told the startled occupants what had occurred and the police and Dr. Floyd Palmer were notified. After the physician had dressed the woman’s wounds, she was taken to the Glens Falls Hospital. Chief of Police Fred C. Jenkins was notified and he summoned all of the officers of the force on duty and sent them out in different directions to search for Blow. The man was arrested three hours later at the home of his mother in Fort Edward. When questioned by the police, he denied all knowledge of the crime. It is expected that the wounded woman’s condition will definitely be known in the next few days after which Blow will be arraigned either on the charge of assault in the first degree or that of murder. The Blows have been married about 21 years but they have not lived together for many years until six months ago. The father is alleged to have whipped the daughter frequently and a week ago Mrs. Blow refused to allow him in the house for that reason.
Monday he visited the house when she was absent and whipped the girl yet again and the mother strongly objected when he told her about it when they met in the street. The assailant is now in city jail. (Note…The name on the villain in this tale is not “Blow.” He actually bore the exact same name, first and last, as a highly respectable, well-known local gentleman of my acquaintance, living here now, who, I have no doubt, has absolutely no connection in his family tree with this miserable wretch. In order to not embarrass him, I fictionalized the name.)
Christmas in the good old days Christmas was a quiet day in Warrensburgh. Services were held at St. Cecilia’s and Holy Cross churches. The work of winding evergreen for the decoration of the Church of the Holy Cross was done in the parish rooms to perfection this year. The beautiful weather was tempting for a walk or a drive, but after the church going crowds had dispersed at noon few people were seen on the streets. Family reunions were held in many houses and it was there that the day was most enjoyed. The programs printed in the Warrensburgh News were much appreciated and fully enjoyed by large congregations. The snow storm on Tuesday, Dec. 24, 1912, while light, saved us from a green Christmas and was very acceptable. The air was crisp and cold after the storm and Tuesday night, Christmas eve, was a perfect winter night.
Strange but true An unusual story came as the result of the terrible wind in Graphite recently which blew part of the roof off a barn and through the side of a house in New Hague and so badly injured Elmer Shattuck that he died from his injuries. He was buried Dec. 22, 1912.
Comrades reunite in eternity News was received on Dec. 17, 1912 that Hiram Jebo, a native of Warrensburgh, had died at Tupper Lake. He was a tent mate of Benjamin Cilley, of Warrensburgh, during their service together in the Civil War. The men enlisted on the same day and received
their discharge at the same time. Mr. Cilley was much affected by the news of his old comrade’s death.
Death in the news Claude Branch, 21, died in Warrensburgh on Friday, Dec. 27, 1912 at the home of Benjamin Whipple with whom he had made his home since the death of his father, Leonard Branch, some years ago. The young man was taken ill in Chestertown where he was employed by A.R. Waddell, just three weeks before his death. He was brought back home here and died the following day. The boy is survived by four brothers, Robert, Henry, William and Dorrence Branch. Burial was in the Warrensburgh Cemetery. Judd S. Fish, 38, of Bolton died Sunday afternoon, Dec. 15, 1912 after only a few weeks illness. The deceased was formerly a student of the Warrensburgh High School. William J. Chilson, father of Prof. John B. Chilson, principal of the Warrensburgh High School, died the night of Jan. 1, 1913 at his home in Luzerne after a long illness of stomach trouble. Prof. Chilson had been at his father ’s bedside since Dec. 24, 1912 and was with him when he died. The deceased was a veteran of the Civil War. (Note…”Afflictions sore long time I bore. Physicians was in vain.”…1873 epitaph found in an old graveyard.)
Disease ravishes family The typhoid fever has about ran its course in the family of Samuel Weller in Lewisville, Warrensburgh after afflicting them for two and a half months. Mr. Weller was first taken with the illness in September and before he recovered his wife became ill with the disease and a while later it attacked Evangeline, their daughter. She is currently making a slow recovery under the care of Dr. Allen Parker.
New marriage law Bert Fry of Stony Creek and Miss Lillian Lanfear of Warrensburgh were married by the Rev. A.T. Murdock on Christmas day, Dec. 25, 1912 at the Methodist Episcopal parsonage in Stony Creek.

Reaching out to Newtown PTA The Warrensburg PTSA has reached out to the PTA in Newtown, Ct. to offer whatever help they can give in the wake of the horrific shooting incident at Sandy hook Elementary School. The Newtown PTA has asked their Warrensburg counterparts to spread the word about a snowflake drive they are having through their organization. The snowflakes eventually will be used to decorate Chalk Hill, a former school in the neighboring municipality of Monroe where the Sandy Hook elementary children will be attending classes for the immediate future. While work is ongoing to coordinating a collection effort for Fawn Hollow Elementary in Newtown, representatives of Warrensburg PTSA wish to share this information on the Newtown school district’s behalf. Remember, no two snowflakes are alike, so get creative. For ideas, see: www.kerliandanimals.blogspot.com/2009/12/tutorialhow-to-make-lovely-snowflakes.html Send snowflakes to Connecticut PTSA, 60 Connolly Parkway, Building 12, Suite 103, Hamden, CT 06514, by January 12.
Ideas for fulfilling family fun The holiday break is an ideal time to relax and spend some fun times with your children, rather than getting caught up in all the hustle and bustle. How about taking a long walk with them and just listen to what they have to tell you? Just let them talk while you listen. We all remember what it was like to be a child and it seemed like your parents never stopped talking and you just had to listen. Studies have shown that parents who listen have much more well-rounded children, because they are serving as good role models. So ask yourself how you want your child to turn out — Do you want them to be compassionate and listen to others? Another idea may be to play some board games — or read to them and have them read to you. A fun game idea that I found while surfing the Internet was drawing some different pictures on 20 to 30 pieces of scrap paper and turning them upside-down. Each person then gets a turn to flip over 3 to 5 pieces and make up a story from the pictures they see. As I write this, our first winter storm is on its way to drop 6 to 9 inches of snow on us, so my plans will include a building a snow man, the first one in three years!
Dozens of people collaborated in our town’s heart-warming holiday charity, and we hear their efforts are much appreciated. Cheryl Kenyon has told me that many area residents were very pleased to be on the list to receive Christmas Baskets this year. Pastor Nathan and Amber Herrmann will be hosting a New Year ’s Eve party at their home at 6 p.m. Dec. 31 and they invite the public to attend. A warm “Thank You” goes out to all the members of Thurman Fire Co. for so kindly adopting many children on the Christmas holiday, making sure they had a few toys under the tree — Job well done! Barbara Turner also expressed deep appreciation to all those planning or turning out for a fundraiser to help her deal with burdensome expenses while she fights off cancer. The party, held at the Thurman Town Hall in mid-November, featured no less than 98 gift baskets which were raffled off. Also, her friends sold T-shirts to those attending — and the town hall was filled to capacity, demonstrating the community’s generosity and caring attitude, Turner said. “Everyone was so wonderful,” Turner said. “I can’t imagine how I could ever pay you all back — Thanks from the bottom of my heart!”
Activities & events in the hills There was an error in last week’s edition of the Thurman column in regard to the Sugar Loaf Seniors Club. The group will indeed be holding meetings in January, February, and March on the third Saturday of the month at 11:30 a.m. Membership dues of $10 will be collected at the January meeting.

Applicants for marriage licenses will currently be required to give the name of the clergyman who is to perform the ceremony. The new law is that to not report a marriage performed to the Registrar of Vital Statistics will result in a stiff fine. (Note…What a blessing this was for scores of genealogists than yet unborn!)
Local news, near and far The chief executioner of death in the winter and spring months is pneumonia and the season is well at hand. On Sunday evening, Dec. 22, 1912, a load of people from Johnsburgh attended the revival meetings at Sodom. Miss Allora Phelan, teacher at the high school in Chestertown, has gone to Cherry Valley to spend the holiday with her parents. Miss Julia O’Keefe closed her school in district No. 10, North Thurman on Friday, Dec. 20, 1912 and returned to her home in Hadley. Miss Nina Hathaway closed her school in the Harrington Hill district on Monday, Dec. 23, 1912 and returned to her home in Greenwich. C.E. Dickinson is building a new wagon shed on his barn at Trout Lake, Bolton. Julius MacKinstry of Adirondack, killed a yearling bull that weighed 423 pounds. Harry Carpenter has pneumonia. Ralph Hill, son of Scott Hill of Trout Lake, Bolton was operated upon for appendicitis at the Albany Hospital. In Thurman, Holden Kenyon, while piling logs with his grandson, Leo A. Baker in the woods on Friday, Dec. 20, 1912, fell on the frozen ground and broke his nose. Sanford Kenyon killed a pig that weighed 410 pounds.
Looking back in time from 1912 One hundred and five years ago, Dec. 28,1807, the Warrensburgh First Baptist church was founded. The Warrensburgh Grist mill was built 88 years ago in 1824 on River street. (Note…Much later, on Dec. 28, 1976 the Grist Mill beside the Schroon River was opened as a restaurant, tavern and craft shop by Nancy Fitler and operated by Barbara McLaughlin.) Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.

Those who are having difficulties getting their orange bags of trash to the transfer station may contact Jim Desourdy at 623-4254 and he will take them to the facility for $5 per week. The Thurman town hall will be closed Dec. 28 and Dec. 31 for floor maintenance, and closed on Jan. 1 in observance of the New Year ’s Day holiday.
Jack Wax Party help needed Let’s not forget about the Jack Wax Party to be held March 9 from. To be a part of the fun, contact me, Kathy Templeton, at 623-2967. This year marks 53 years this event has taken place, and all the proceeds go to the American Cancer Society.

History of New Year’s revelry New Year ’s is the world's most popular and universally celebrated festival. The origin of celebrating New Year ’s Day dates back to the era of emperors who established a special day to observe the end of one year and the beginning of the next. In 46 B.C., Roman emperor Julius Caesar officially declared Jan. 1 to begin the new year. At that time, Romans worshiped the god Janus who was said to have two faces, one looking forward and the other looking backward. The month of January was named after this Roman god and it prompted the emperor to establish January as “the gate” to the New Year, as implied by the meaning of Janus’ name. People adopted the Julian calendar, and in doing so observed January as first month of the year. About 500 years later, Pope Gregory XIII abolished the Julian calendar and introduced the Gregorian calendar which incorporated a leap year after every four years to accommodate the true length of the year, the earth’s annual trip in orbit around the sun. Finally, in 1582, it was settled that Gregorian calendar was set to celebrate New Year on the first day of January.

Stec praised and razzed as he heads off to Albany one at a time out of your backpack,” Frasier said. Stec was the target of several quips from people referring to his tendency to be long-winded. While Glens Falls Third Ward supervisor Bud Taylor praised Stec for his ongoing support of human services issues, he said that the legislature might have to extend its sessions to accommodate his speeches. Stec fired back, “I was made for filibusters,” prompting laughter from many. In providing an example of brevity, Lake George Supervisor Dennis Dickinson wished Stec well as he repeated children’s author Dr. Seuss's seven-word speech he gave at a college graduation: “Good morning; Good job; good luck; goodbye.” Stec was for a moment almost at a loss for words.

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Presiding over his last Warren County Board of Supervisors meeting before he assumes his new position Jan. 1, state Assemblyman-elect Dan Stec reflected Friday, Dec. 21 on the board’s accomplishments during his tenure as Chairman — and the other county supervisors offered up witty barbs and best wishes. Stec said achievements of the board included keeping county tax increases at a minimum, rebuilding the county’s depleted financial reserves from $3 million to $12 million, rebuilding infrastructure including four bridges, resolving personnel problems in the county Social Services Department, and taking a leadership statewide in combatting water-borne invasive species. The accomplishments on the latter issue include Asian clam control efforts and moving toward establishing a mandatory boat inspection and decontamination law, Stec said. “We put our money where our mouth is,” Stec said. “We took the ball over the goal line in Warren County, and the state can learn a lot from us.” Queensbury Supervisor David Strainer praised Stec for his integrity in politics. “You can be proud you went up through the system,” Strainer said. “You didn’t buy your way into office — You are going to do a great job in Albany.” Glens Falls Supervisor Dan Girard added his thoughts. “You have been one of the hardest working supervisors — you have the whole picture of what’s really going on,” he said. “You will be a great representative of our county.” Several county supervisors presented Stec with gifts. Stec received a mantel clock from Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty, chosen by his peers to succeed Stec as county board chairman, and Stony Creek Supervisor Frank Thomas, who is to be the next county Finance Committee chairman. “We’ll miss your leadership,” Thomas said as the gift was presented. Stec replied afterwards, “You’ll be getting an upgrade,” referring to Geraghty.

push-button that broadcasts “No” in various voices. She indicated that the device would be useful in his legislative work. Also, county Emergency Services Director Brian LaFlure gave Stec a red corded telephone handset — resembling the White House hotline — to plug into his cell phone so he could keep in touch, while in Albany, with his Warren County comrades. Another gag gift Stec received was a backpack full of rocks from Johnsburg Supervisor Ron Vanselow and Hague Supervisor Edna Frasier, representing a metaphor Stec has used to describe the county’s frustrations over the state passing down its responsibilities to its counties without providing funding — The state, he has said again and again, is urging their counties’ leaders to hike ever faster up a slope as the state’s legislators add rocks to the hikers’ backpacks.

Lake George region a big winner Among the projects and organizations funded in the area were: • $308,00 to Warren County’s projects relating to the First Wilderness Heritage Corridor along the Saratoga-North Creek railroad in Saratoga and Warren counties. Projects include restoration of Warrensburg’s historic Floyd Bennett bandstand and design of a new 31.5-acre waterfront park on the Schroon River off Rte. 418 in Warrensburg — at the site of the former Warrensburg Board & Paper Mill, which for decades was a condemned brownfield. • $544,500 to the town of Lake George for their Gateway Improvement project along state Rte. 9 including the construction of a landscaped median, porous pavement, erosion control and stormwater management, pedestrian safety, beautification and roadway landscaping — on the major gateway to the Lake George region. • $600,0000 to Hacker Boat Co., Silver Bay on Lake George, for plant expansion. The firm is to invest $5.4 million and create 31 new jobs. • $400,000 to Hudson Headwaters Health Network for the construction of a new Warrensburg Health Center. •$300,000 to the town of Chester and the Warren County Soil & Water Conservation District toward their Schroon Lake Watershed Management Plan projects, which include construction of stormwater abatement work, roadside erosion control, and a voluntary on-site wastewater treatment system pump out and water conservation program, plus Eurasian milfoil control. • $750,000 towards developing the Charles Wood Park — the former Gaslight Village property.

Gore Mountain from page 1 past week, opening new trails and lifts, and this fresh dumping of snow is expected to open even more terrain. “We’ll just evaluate after the snow comes through,” Stanton said, adding that the snow could help open up some of the glades and connector trails. Most of the ski season days, so far, have been warm, with some rain, but the nights have been cold enough to make snow. And Gore snowmakers have used every opportunity to cover trails with snow. The ski center was able to increase much of its open terrain this past weekend. On Friday, Dec. 21, there were five lifts and 15 trails open — 25 percent of the terrain — with a base depth of 11-19 inches. By Saturday, Dec. 22, there were seven lifts
Adirondack Journal - 15
Glens Falls region fares well • $500,000 to Glens Falls for building a parking garage on Hudson Avenue to augment downtown revitalization. The 450-car garage is to complement a $24 million mixed-use development in the city center. • $137,201 to the The Hyde Collection to present its 2013 exhibition “Modern Nature: Georgia O'Keeffe & Lake George.” • $100,000 to the area BOCES agency for training unemployed workers for technical manufacturing jobs. • $184,000 to the city of Glens Falls to prepare plans for Pruyn’s Island redevelopment and a design of a waterfront promenade, plus plans for enhancements to the Feeder Canal. The grants also go towards various stormwater abatement projects, to study the possible relocation of the Finch Paper wood yard, to develop new zoning design guidelines, to enhance the Murray St. streetscape, and for a wastewater engineering study focusing on Platt St. • $465,000 to construct a pipeline to the Glens Falls sewer plant for Ames Goldsmith Corporation’s wastewater in order to treat their nitrate-laden effluent. • $50,000 to Davidson Brothers Brewery to expand their craft beer brewing operations in Glens Falls. • $125,000 to Warren-Washington counties ARC towards construction of a kitchen and cafeteria at their Queensbury location — to be used as training site and for distribution of agricultural products from Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties.
Regional grants are generous Awards of regional interest include: • $2 million to Adirondack Economic Development Corp. in Saranac Lake for their regional Community Transforma-
and 17 trails open, and by Monday, Dec. 24, there were seven lifts and 25 trails open — 40 percent of the terrain — with a base of 1424 inches. By Wednesday, Dec. 26, there were 11 lifts and 36 trails open — 56 percent of the terrain — with a base depth of 15-25 inches. That’s every lift but three — the Hudson Chair (Ski Bowl), High Peaks Chair and Burnt Ridge Quad — and the High Peaks Chair was set to open Dec. 27. The North Creek Ski Bowl is now fully operational — minus the Hudson Chair — with tubing, alpine skiing and snowboarding on the Village Slopes. In addition to the 800foot lift-serviced tubing lanes and the Village Chair, Gore began offering snowshoeing and nordic skiing as well (including rentals). “We are working on a 2K loop that will incorporate, but not interfere with, the areas we presently use for tubing and skiing,” said
tion Tourism Fund which loans money for tourism-related ventures throughout the North Country. • $1 million for an elevated boardwalk through the woods with interactive exhibits at the Natural History Museum of the Adirondacks, Tupper Lake. $2.5 million for the Municipal Water & Wastewater Infrastructure Support Fund for municipal water, sewer and road upgrades — with communities participating in setting their own priorities. • $1.7 million toward broadband connections worth $2.1 million that would serve most hamlets in Hamilton County where none previously existed. • $108,000 to the to the Adirondack Association of Towns & Villages for development of an Adirondack Park recreation web portal to promote tourism and recreation in the Adirondacks. • $465,000 towards construction and equipping of a new $1.3 million, 7,500 square-feet slaughterhouse and retails outlet at Ticonderoga’s Adirondack Meat Co., a project expected to provide a new market opportunities for farmers raising livestock. • $1.75 million to International Paper ’s Ticonderoga mill for conversion to natural gas. • Upgrades worth $221,073 to Adirondack Mountain Club’s Wilderness Campground at Heart Lake, including new tent sites and lean-tos, well, washhouse and septic.

Gore General Manager Mike Pratt. “Multiuse terrain at the North Creek Ski Bowl increases the diversity of our winter activities, so more people can enjoy this region's recreational opportunities.” Stanton said Gore looks forward to welcoming regional nordic teams that might want to practice at the Ski Bowl, plus visitors coming to North Creek by road or rail. “The close proximity of the Ski Bowl to the train station also offers all guests of the Saratoga-North Creek Railway an easy way to spend part of their day on the snow, if they are looking for an alternative to skiing or
snowboarding,” Stanton said. Gore also held some events this past weekend. The Lumberjack Log Jam freestyle contest was held on Dec. 22 on the Lower Sleighride trail, and Gore welcomed its first NYSEF race of the season on the lowest portion of Showcase Dec. 22-23. Also, the completely renovated Tannery Pub & Restaurant in the Gore Mountain Base Lodge — complete with brand-new kitchen, bar and taps, seating, and bathrooms — kicked off its busy live music schedule.

Sales tax from page 1 The total sales tax revenue is likely to be as much as $47.2 million, granting a $5.1 million surplus to county residents. Half of the sales tax revenue the county receives is paid out to the local towns, and the other half is retained by the county. If the $47.2 million total is attained, as county leaders now predict, it will be one of the highest totals on record and perhaps the highest ever, Swan said on Christmas Eve. “Sales tax is coming in at a good pace,” he said. “If we get $4 million more, it would be a phenomenal year.” Swan said that fuel prices have fallen recently, but they are still a touch higher than last year — and are not likely to skew the sales tax figures much. He said that automobile sales were likely the chief factor in the heavy increase of tax revenue. “Detroit is selling a ton of cars through our local dealers,” he said. But general retail sales seem to be robust also, he said, predicting a very strong holiday revenues for area businesses. “I was at the mall yesterday and the stores were packed,” he said. “There are a lot of people spending money right now.”

A robust crowd of local residents gathered Sunday Dec. 16 to sing Christmas carols at various homes and other locations around town. Mark and Linda Perry organized the activity — and Kathy Spahn helped by compiling a list of people to visit. About 24 carolers met at the Bolton Town Hall where a school bus, piloted by Craig Hannon, picked them up and took them “over the river and through the woods” around our beloved rural town, taking us to six residences, where the group’s remarkable harmony was well appreciated. The group then was dropped off at the Town Hall and they proceeded to sing their way around the downtown area, visiting six more homes. Linda Perry made Christmas cookies which were left at the homes. The efforts of all the carolers spread holiday cheer to a good number of our local residents.
