Horicon a step closer to updated zoning

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

HORICON — Inconsistencies in town zoning created from incorporating laws from other municipalities is about to be remedied with a new zoning plan, a project five years in the making.

“These things take time,” said Supervisor Matt Simpson.

Simpson said he was pleased with the changes crafted by the town administration in cooperation with the Adirondack Park Agency.

“We had to clarify and clean up what didn’t make sense,” he said.

Some of those odd rules involved dock shapes.

The old zoning specified particular shapes of docks, while ruling out others.

“We don’t care what shape, really, as long as it meets safety and setbacks,” Simpson said of the new guidelines.

Because of the inconsistencies with zoning, residents were frequently applying for variances, which can be time-consuming and costly to certain projects.

The town’s website alerts residents to those issues, telling them to plan ahead.

“Please be aware,” it reads, “variance applications usually take three months to complete.”

The town board is expected to accept the revisions to zoning at the April 21 meeting, but that doesn’t make the changes official.

Following that, two public hearing will be held, though only one is required by law.

“We want to make sure those with seasonal residences can attend, too,” said Simpson.

He expects to set the hearings in June and July. A formal adoption of the revisions would come at some point later.

Simpson said the new zoning ordinance will be posted on the town website after the April 21 meeting.

LAKE GEORGE — Following two successful years as a pilot program, the Lake George Park Commission is expected to make the boat inspection program permanent with a vote April 8.

Data from the two seasons, along with continued and recent feedback from the community, had proven the program to be successful.

“The state has already gone through the regulations and determined they are appropriate,” said Pat Dowd, Lake George Association communications director, meaning Friday’s vote is the last step in the program’s approval.

A public meeting held last week generated few comments.

Some changes have been made to the program based on the Commission’s finding the first year.

With few boats entering the lake, and absence of reproductive cycles of the invasive species in early spring, the program has been bumped to begin May 1, rather than its original April 1 start date.

Trout Lake, situated west of Lake George, feeds Huddle Brook, which meanders along both sides of route 48 until it reaches Lake George, will now also be included in the program.

While there will be no specific inspection site, the homeowners associations with launches will direct inspections and boat cleanings, said Dowd.

The program grew out of a lake steward program managed and run by the LGA for six years before the Park Commission’s program came into being, noted Dowd. He attributed the public’s welcome reception to the program, in part, because the that relationship established with boaters early on.

In its two years, 48,081 boaters were processed through the seven inspection stations and decontaminated 2,895 vessels.

Wine and Food Festival prepares to return

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE— Organizers of the Adirondack Wine and Food Festival have their eyes set on doubling attendance at the event when it returns for its second year, June 25 and 26.

A $63,000 state grant, awarded under the Taste NY initiative, will be used to attract attendees from all over New England.

Last summer, the event missed a goal of 3,000 visitors, attracting 2,500, despite much rain falling the week prior.

Carmela and Roberto Mastrantoni own MezzaLuna restaurant, along with Lake George Olive Oil Co. Carmela was on hand for a kick-off celebration in the tasting room at Adirondack Winery last week, where the new goal of 5,000 attendants was announced.

“I think we’ll get even more than that,” said Carmela.

There was nothing but rave reviews from those that came last summer, said organizers. Word is out locally about the event, she said, and the advertising campaign looks promising.

“It’s a good time, too, being the end of June because sales can still be soft then,” said Carmela.

Students from the SUNY Adirondack Culinary Arts Program will be using Lake George Olive Oil Co. products when they return with cooking demonstrations at a dedicated tent.

Adirondack Festivals LLC, which presents the festival this year, was formed by winery owners Sasha and Michael Pardy.

Sasha said the presence of vendors will increase numbers, as reflected by visitor feedback forms.

An additional of 12 vendors this year will bring the total to 50.

Other local wineries, breweries, distilleries, wineries, breweries, and artisan food producers will offer samples along with full-size products for sale.

The event will also receive $15,000 in funding from Warren County Supervisors based on anticipated occupancy tax revenues. Events which serve alcohol typically increase overnight stays, said county officials.

Demographics tracking ticket sales look promising as well, said Sasha, based on website hits and social media followers.

The festival’s demographic is women ages 25 to 44, shown to have strong buying power.

Statistics show wine tourists have a 16 percent higher income than the average among general tourists, Sasha said.

Mayor Robert Blais addressed the crowd of about 40 at the winery last week.

“In one year, the Adirondack Wine and Food Festival has become one of the premier events of the North Country.

It’s everything we hope for with our Festival Commons,” he said.

The festival will return to

Corruption of power

o what extent are the candidates, the parties, the endorsers and the media willing to go to influence the American electorate in order to achieve their aspirations in the upcoming elections?

To date, election year 2016 has been beyond comprehension, and it seems we are in store for many more unbelievable chapters before this story is complete.

Sadly it’s all part of the posturing for power and influence and we are all guilty of playing along.

With every Twitter message, political rally, news flash, poll, town hall, debate, private meeting, interview, broadcast and threat of suit or criminal charges we are hooked: hook, line and sinker.

For many years a significant portion of our population ignored the elections, not interested in getting sucked into the commotion, but given the state of the economy and the tumultuous world conditions, many are making an exception this year.

With the stakes now reaching a new high as a result of Justice Scalia’s untimely passing many have now come to realize we have three key branches of government hanging in the balance.

At stake is more than just the White House. Key issues of importance to you will all be in play. Issues such as the rising debt, abortion, woman’s rights, climate change, health care, immigration, veterans affairs, gun control, separation of church and state, unions, trade, voting rights, affirmative action, tax reform, military action and terrorist threats, make this an election where every vote could impact your life.

Is it any wonder those vying for power are pulling no punches and stooping to new lows or highs depending on your point of view?

It is possible we will see both conventions contested much to the delight of the nation’s media who in past years have greatly curtailed convention coverage?

In an election that began with the strong possibility of a dynasty race between another Clinton and Bush, instead we’ve seen theater, drama, record crowds, and surprises at every turn. Anything but the same old thing.

So impassioned has the debate gotten that many feel if their candidate isn’t chosen they will stay home. But with so much at stake and passions running so high are we more likely to see a three or four or even five party race all the way into the fall?

Let’s just hope whoever gets there has enough fight left in them to govern the country once they survive the election.

On-time budget comes at what expense?

F

or the sixth year in a row, state leaders have delivered a timely budget.

On Monday, after getting the greenlight from the state legislature, Gov. Andrew Cuomo formally signed two of his most carefullywatched initiatives into law, enacting a statewide $15 minimum wage plan and 12-week paid family leave policy.

While state legislators were familiar with the broad contours of the proposals, details remained scant until the eleventh-hour when the freshly-inked bills sailed across lawmaker desks.

With the April 1 deadline looming, lawmakers were expected to cast their votes within hours on legislation that will undoubtedly transform the private sector.

Bills ordinarily require three days of debate, a requirement embedded in the state constitution.

But a mechanism called the message of necessity allows the governor to force immediate votes on legislation.

That’s what happened last week… and what has happened each year for the past four years.

While vital to the sound operation of our state, passing an on-time budget doesn’t really necessitate Cuomo waving his magic wand — or in this case, pen — invoking his special powers.

Government watchdog groups have described the practice of prioritizing timeliness over policy details as “political theater.”

Assemblyman Dan Stec (R-114th-Queensbury) has also pointed out the

folly of shoving policy through, a process he said keeps pending legislation shielded from lawmakers, the public and the press alike.

We agree.

This isn’t the first time the governor has evoked this executive perk.

You might recall the SAFE Act, the gun control legislation the governor pushed through within weeks of a deadly 2012 mass shooting.

Lawmakers never had a chance. Three years later, details on the controversial policy continue to trickle out.

Gov. Cuomo deserves respect for righting a budget process that has historically been dysfunctional. And it should be noted that his predecessors have used the device far more than he has.

But we also think sweeping changes in state policy, especially when they’re hammered out by three men in a room, is problematic. Perhaps it doesn’t rise to the occasion of mustache-twirling villainy, but certainly is opaque and questionable — especially considering the fetid gutter that constitutes Albany politics.

The New Yorkers who have repeatedly raised concerns about these policies, which are now law, deserve better.

Never Trump

To the Editor: I spent 24 years of service to our country in the USAF. I served for myself, family, and fellow Americans to keep the barbarians at the gates; protecting our freedoms of speech, religion, the press and the pursuit of happiness.

Today, I am exercising freedom of speech to declare to my fellow Republicans that I cannot support Mr. Donald Trump to represent our party in the coming race for president.

My greatest political disappointment was the defeat of Sen. John McCain in the 2008 Presidential election. I was also very disappointed more recently when Mr. Trump disregarded Sen. McCain’s service by implying that he was not a war hero because he was captured by the North Vietnamese.

I realized that Mr. Trump, a man who has not served his country in any way, had no idea of how difficult it must have been during five years of captivity for Sen. McCain to remain a strong patriot who inspired the other captives.

Now that Mr. Trump has talked about leaving NATO and possibly allowing Japan, South Korea, and others to have nuclear weapons, I realize that he also has no idea about how to defend our country.

But it also really bothers me that he has a lack of respect and common courtesy for those who dare to disagree with him. I guess freedom of speech is not a high priority for him, unless of course it is his speech.

For me, our freedoms guaranteed under the Constitution and Bill of Rights are the most precious gift our founding fathers gave to us. Therefore if you choose to use your freedom to vote for Mr. Trump, I respect your right to do so, even if I disagree with you.

But I ask you, would Mr. Trump respect your exercise of such freedom if you did not support him? Or would you be just another person to disparage, call names, and crudely verbally attack, like Senator Rubio, former Governor Jeb Bush, Senator Cruz and so many women that I have lost count.

Exercise your right to vote as I will; but I will never vote for Mr. Trump, even if it means another Democrat in the White House.

Yes, I believe they will preserve our freedoms better than Mr. Trump will.

Elizabethtown voters lack privacy

To the Editor: On Election Day, residents of Elizabethtown do not have privacy when filling out their ballots. The privacy of the voting booth, which voters in other towns have, is not available to voters in Elizabethtown, the County Seat.

Elizabethtown citizens vote in the town hall meeting room, which is too small to hold the standard, curtained voting booths. These curtained booths offer both privacy and prevent voters from being distracted by lines of people at the inspector’s tables.

Instead, in Elizabethtown, there are two small tables, side by side, near the back door. As people fill out their ballots, the public enters and exits through the door. Low plastic walls (chest high) on three sides separate these two polling spaces.

When a voter finishes filling in the ballot at one table, they must walk behind the voter who is still filling out their ballot at the next table. Ballots being filled out are visible to other people.

In addition, the low partitions expose the person voting to the line of people waiting to sign in. This voting in an open room, without privacy curtains, can make a voter feel conspicuous, rushed and distracted by others who are talking to the inspectors, and friends.

All voters should be able to vote behind a privacy curtain. 800 people are registered to vote in Elizabethtown, and over 500 show up regularly to cast their ballots. The lack of space and the resulting lack of privacy make it imperative that the Board of Elections relocate the voting place to a larger location in Elizabethtown.

There are other places in Elizabethtown big enough to accommodate the curtained voting booths.

Two possible locations are the Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School or the Elizabethtown Fire Hall. A public school is used in Ticonderoga and a fire hall is used Crown Point, so there should be no problem moving the polling place to one of these larger locations for the up coming elections.

If you want the same privacy, which is provided to other voters in other towns, call the Board of Elections at 873-3476 or 873-3478 and let them know how you feel.

Sage rhetoric cowardly, hateful

Thank you from the WPTSO

To the Editor: I read with disgust the accusations of an elected official of a neighboring community that the state police harassed, intimidated and or entrapped participants of the annual Schroon Lake Ice Fishing Derby.

This is typical hateful rhetoric from another cowardly elected official who hates the police, and who has no clue what is going on in the real world.

Instead of thanking the police for removing two more drunken imbeciles — who made the irresponsible decision to get in their vehicles after getting drunk and thought it was okay to drive — from our roads, this town board member decided it was more constructive to accuse the troopers, (who put their lives on the line every day), of egregious behavior, simply outrageous, especially coming from an elected official.

I hope the good people of Schroon Lake give this guy the boot next time he comes up for reelection because quite frankly, having that mentality from an elected official in a neighboring community is scary.

How many other officials think like this? Did the community voice outrage at his accusations? Who ever voted for this joker should think again next time around.

There are enough cop-haters in the world — we surely do not need to have them in office where they can really do damage. Maybe the people who were arrested are friends of Sage and he is speaking out in their defence. Maybe that should be looked into (Just saying!)

Thanks to the troopers who protect us every single day of the year. I am sure there are more of us who stick up for the troopers than those who are haters and left-wing radicals. When a police officer screws up, they are dealt with as they should be, what Sage accuses the cops of comes out of pure radical left wing hatred.

Trump, a national obsession To the Editor: Donald Trump? There’s almost nothing else people want to talk about these days. Where’s this national obsession taking us?

People love the guy because he’s “not establishment.” Last week a writer enthused that he was the first such candidate in U.S. history. I don’t know where that leaves men such as Washington, Jackson, Lincoln, Perot or Debs. Are Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Bernie Sanders “establishment”, too?

Anyway, when Trump talks he sounds just like the rest of us, right? Or maybe the guy on the bar stool next to us just before the 2 a.m. call. But does that mean we want a president who curses, mocks and stammers disjointed, incomplete sentences in his public pronouncements?

Well, Trump embodies and channels our collective anger, doesn’t he?

I don’t know about you, but I seldom make my best decisions in anger.

It’s hard to believe that Trump is really the conservative he says he is, or even a Republican, since he’s never been one before now.

But, I admit, people can change. It’s just that he seems to be campaigning against the things he spent his life doing. If you close your eyes, it’s almost like he’s campaigning against himself.

And Mr. Trump, when you’re waving your “family” Bible at the crowds, couldn’t you please at least get one that doesn’t look like it’s still in the cellophane wrapper?

Last time I looked, it’s not just angry men who vote. If half of Republican women are going to refuse to vote for Trump (as a recent poll shows), because of the way he speaks about women, incites his supporters to violence, laughs at the lame, and ridicules decent people; then is it going to be possible for him to carry even a single state in November?

I can’t think of a better way to roll out the red carpet for President Hillary Clinton, who is otherwise the most beatable candidate in decades.

They say Hillary might even be indicted before the election. But Mr. Trump goes her one better. He already has a trial date set for committing fraud with “Trump University.” It’s scheduled to begin right after the primaries end. Perfect timing.

Trump is like a pied piper, leading us toward an election debacle that’ll likely cause the Republican Party to lose the senate and perhaps the house, too, and eventually lead to a Supreme Court almost entirely absent of constitutionalists.

I believe Trump’s nomination will spell the end of the Republican Party, which ultimately might be a good thing, assuming the Republic can survive long enough to weather the changing of the guard.

Maybe we need to think this through a little more carefully.

Keep the arts alive To the Editor: I am the Arts Grant Coordinator for the Adirondack Quad-County Decentralization Grant Program administered by the Arts Center in Blue Mountain Lake and made possible through the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

For a full list of the projects awarded, please visit our website at adirondackarts.org.

Please feel free to email me any time throughout the year with questions about fundable projects or for more information on the granting process at kathy@adirondackarts.org.

I’d also like to thank the Essex County Board of Supervisors for allowing me to acknowledge the program and recipients at a recent board meeting in Elizabethtown.

I’m looking forward to working with you all again on 2017 arts projects.

Fear of violent refugees “unrealistic” To the Editor: Regarding Bill Bendel’s letter, “Taking in refugees: Politically correct or just naive?”

Bill Bendel’s criticism of the Sun Community News Editorial Board’s editorial (“Taking in refugees will be good for the Adirondack Park”) is so far removed from reality, it would be more appropriate for The Onion.

In fact, his allegation about Dearborn, Michigan adopting Sharia law was lifted from the National Report, which prides itself on its outrageous fictional satire. I live in Old Forge and run a business here, and your editorial is spot-on.

Mr. Bendel, if you really believe everything you wrote, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn that I’d like to sell to you-cheap!

While Al Baker’s similarly-critical letter is at least more based in reality, he overstates, by a tremendous margin, the actual threat from foreign-born terrorists to American civilians.

If you look back over the past decade, the odds of being killed here by a foreign-born terrorist is significantly less than being shot and killed by a toddler, and would not come close to being among the top 500 causes of death in this country.

That threat has been hyped by our government-military-industrial-security complex, so it isn’t surprising that so many people, like Mr. Baker, have this unrealistic fear.

But there are thousands of things that Americans could do to make themselves safer in far more effective ways than blocking refugees from coming here.

It has been pointed out that there has been only one period in American history when undocumented immigrants posed a real threat to Americans who were already here, and that was when the original settlers came here from Europe!

Increasing minimum wage will aid job growth To the Editor: I’m writing this in response to the letter, “Minimum wage increase will curb job growth, kill small businesses” submitted by Fred Erickson, of Chestertown.

You sir, are 100 percent wrong: This will not kill job growth and it will not kill small businesses. If the small businesses were 100 percent ready for a day like this, then the owners would and can start paying that wage per hour.

Second, there has been a lot of misinformation that has been put out there by many people, including Rep. Elise Stefanik. This is to set the record straight about this issue and will give anyone a better fighting chance to get out of poverty and to get off of welfare.

Why is there 60 percent of the people on welfare without any hope of a better future: Is it because the jobs market is so bad? Why have people who cannot get a fair job get off of that and go without?

In closing, this will put more money back into the economy and it will also generate more jobs creation then ever before people.

The small business owners should have prepared for this day to happen, period.

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Kaye’s 90th birthday Gordie Little

Columnist

F

or our family, April 14 will be tantamount to all the holidays together.

Catherine M. Little will celebrate her 90th birthday with family and friends at our house. I call her Catherine the great. She is my wife.

If you’re a regular reader of this column, you know about Kaye, born in a massive April snowstorm on property that is now Camp Jericho off the Rand Hill Road. I have always had the highest regard for the distaff side and I suppose it began with my mother who read the Holy Bible and the Reader’s Digest to me before I was weaned.

Genesis, Chapter 1, verse 3: “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.” My mother said “light” was my first word. I have embraced a brilliant portion of the light for the past 42 years since Kaye and I were married in the Old Base Chapel.

Most of you know her as the source of my strength. She accepted me into her arms and we melded our families into what I have referred to as a winning combination involving 13 children. We now celebrate 20 grandchildren and 37 great grandchildren.

She takes little credit, but I sing her praises at every opportunity.

She has always been by my side in ways you might not know. She laid out my clothes each day when I worked on the radio. White shirt, necktie, sport coat, matching trousers and socks. They were all lined up on the bed every morning. She took pride in presenting me to the public on a pedestal that I didn’t always deserve.

When I began writing seriously, she critiqued every word and still does. She shuns the spotlight, while herself offering a bright source of my light.

Having been raised in a preacher’s home, I gained an early appreciation for the Holy Bible and grew up with the King James version.

Case in point? A passage in Proverbs that epitomizes the old saying, “A good woman is hard to find.” King James translated it as, “Who can find a virtuous woman?

For her price is far above rubies.”

A modern version reads, “A good woman is hard to find, and worth far more than diamonds.”

Today, I opened a Holy Bible given to me by my late father with his hand-written message inside: “Gordon, I couldn’t face up to life without the words of this book— read it carefully and prayerfully— Dad.” Yes, I have sung the “Hymn to a Good Wife” over and over and have embraced the modern translation that says, “Her husband trusts her without reserve, and never has reason to regret it. Never spiteful, she treats him generously all her life long.” I especially love the end: “The woman to be admired and praised is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God. Give her everything she deserves!

Festoon her life with praises!”

I can’t think of a better way than to say it right here: Happy birthday, my darling and thank you for saving me from certain degradation.

North Ministry serves many organizations through benefit QUEENSBURY — With their wide range of programs all showing increases in service, North Country Ministry is raising hopes as well as funds during its upcoming spring gals.

“Spotlight on Broadway” will take place Friday, April 29, at the Hiland Park Country Club. Tickets are available that include a live auction featuring auctioneer Martin Seelye as well as a silent auction, raffles, and in keeping with the theme, performances of favorite Broadway show tunes.

Proceeds of the fundraiser will benefit North Country Ministry’s ongoing services which operate out of the organization’s two centers in North Creek and Warrensburg. Among the programs North Country Ministry provides is its Emergency Assistance Fund which goes hand-in-hand with caseworker advocacy and referral services. “We are committed to addressing each client’s needs with respect for their unique situation, said Judy Carr, executive director.

Advocacy is when North Country Ministry’s representative contacts and speaks on behalf of a client to other organizations or programs which ma benefit the client. Referral occurs when the client is directed to apply for assistance of some form under an outside program.

“Advocacy is not always a quick process, but it is an effective way to assist individuals and families,” said Rebecca Bammert. “Through advocacy, we address the root of the problem, combining emergency assistance to sometimes address the immediate need while identifying programs the client may be eligible for and helping them to get set up with those pro-

grams to have a better outcome in the long run.”

North Country Ministry’s Emergency Assistance Fund provides limited but financial aid to try to stem the long-term effects of an immediate financial crisis. “Someone is employed and their car breaks down for example,” said Carr. “If they cannot afford to repair the car, they will be at risk of losing their job due to lack of transportation. If that happens, the client and the client’s family if there are dependents, could easily lose the ability to be self-sufficient long-term. Our emergency assistance is designed to try to support people as they navigate an immedi-

ate crisis and get them back to their usual way of life.”

In addition to the above services, they also runs a food pantry with health insurance and SNAP advisors on hand when the pantry is open. The organization has a Baby’s Place program which provides clothing, diapers and other infant items to families in need and is supplemented by both a play group and a grant-funded program to provide new infant and child car seats to those who qualify. There is a Family Clothing Center, the Gathering Place weekly community meal, affordable efficiency apartments for adults, and the Furniture Barn.

Library to hold bead weaving class STONY CREEK — The Stony Creek Library will be offering a bead weaving class with instructor Jeannie Thomma Saturday, April 30, at the Stony Creek Town Hall, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

This is a four hour workshop. The focus will be on the peyote stitch, and the many variations that it offers for creating beaded jewels. No experience is required. All materials will be provided. Class size is limited and registration is required.

Call the Stony Creek Library at 696-5911 to enroll. Leave a name and phone number and people will receive confirmation if they will be part of the class.

Library to host fundraiser dinner LAKE GEORGE — The Caldwell Lake George Library will host their fifth annual fundraising dinner Thursday, April 14, at the East Cove Restaurant, from 5 to 8 p.m. There will be basket raffles and 50/50 drawing. A percent of dinner proceeds will be earmarked for the new Circulation Area in the Library. Attendees can order from the menu and reservations can be made at 668-5265. Baskets will be available for viewing in Library and tickets can be purchased there.

EYE ON THE ARTS

Passion

V

an Gogh once said that it is “good to love many things … whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is well done.”

Passion is essential to more than art: it is essential to living a fulfilled life. To be passionate is to be driven to do more, driven to be more. And while staying home is comfortable and relaxing, it oftentimes takes more to get inspired.

It takes venturing out; it takes experiencing something new or something unique and broadening one’s interests. One of the great things about the Adirondacks is the plentiful opportunities around to do so. Here are a few events happening around the area this week. Attend one and who knows – passion may be inspired where you once thought there was none.

The Adirondack Shakespeare Company will return to The Upper Jay Art Center with a performance of “The Merchant of Venice” on April 9. “The Merchant of Venice” follows a merchant in 16th-century Venice who must default on a large loan provided by an abused Jewish moneylender. The play was first performed in 1605. The ADK Shakespeare Company was formed in May of 2008. Since then, co-founders Patrick Siler and Tara Bradway have worked to grow the Shakespeare project into a flourishing not-for-profit, professional theatre company serving the Adirondacks. The company’s performance will begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults and free for children under twelve. For more information, contact the Upper Jay Art Center at (518) 946-8315.

John Nemeth will perform at Saranac Lake’s BluSeed Studios on April 11. John Nemeth, winner of the 2015 BMA’s Best Blues/Soul Album, has been described as one of the “new faces of soul and blues.” Nemeth has been nominated for over 14 awards. The concert starts at 7 p.m.

Tickets are $18 for non-members. Reservations can be made by calling BluSeed Studios at 518891-3799 or by emailing admin@bluseedstudios.org.

The Champlain Valley Film Series will screen “BROOKLYN” at the Whallonsburg Grange Hall on April 9. The Academy Award-nominated film follows the deeply moving, passionate love story of a young Irish immigrant in 1950s Brooklyn. This one-time screening will begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $6 for adults and $3 for minors. For more information, contact info@ cvfilms.org.

On April 14, the Crandall Public Library in Glens Falls will host a concert by Canadian folk band Ozere. Ozere takes equal inspiration from chamber groups and folk bands, combining bluegrass, Celtic, jazz, Klezmer, Afro Cuban and classical music to create a unique sound.

Drawing comparisons to the Goat Rodeo Sessions and Tin Hat Trio, Ozere has garnered much acclaim following the release of their debut full-length album,“Finding Anyplace,” in October 2015. Tickets to the show are free. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. This concert is part of the Folklife Concert Series, produced by the Folklife Center at Crandall Public Library, and made possible in part by the Friends of Crandall Public Library and the New York State Council on the Arts Folk Arts Program. For more information, contact the library at 518-792-6508.

Ahead of Mother’s Day on May 8, the Strand Center for the Arts in Plattsburgh will offer two crafting classes for children. The first class will show attendees how to make a clay flower pot using the slab and mold technique.

This class, ages five and up, will be held on April 10 at 9 a.m. Reservations are $35 and include all materials. The second class will focus on paper stencils, wallpaper and craft foam. It will also be held on April 10, starting one hour later at 10 a.m. Reservations for this class are $45 and also includes all materials. For more information, or to reserve a spot in one of these classes, contact the Strand at 518-563-1604.

One Hundred Years Ago – April, 1916 Lake George man meets untimely death Dolphus J. Brown, 53, a prominent and widely known resident of Lake George, was instantly killed about 4 o’clock Tuesday afternoon, April 4, 1916, in an automobile accident which occurred on the Bolton Road, about a mile from the village, near the Peabody place.

Mr. Brown was a candidate for Democratic Committeeman for the town of Caldwell (Lake George) in the primaries and was engaged in transporting voters to and from the polling place.

He was returning to the village after carrying some men to their homes and was alone. There was no one in the vehicle when the accident occurred and therefore the exact manner in which the unfortunate man met his death can only be surmised. It is believed that his car skidded on the wet road, whirled about, struck the fence by the roadside. Then crashed into a tree and overturned.

Mr. Brown’s body was pinned under the machine and was found with one side of the car body resting on his head. There was a hole of considerable size in his skull over the right eye which is believed to have been caused by striking a board in the fence before the car overturned. If this is the case it was this injury which caused his death.

The accident was discovered by Mr. L.C. Wilmarth, of Glens Falls, who was passing by in his automobile and saw the wrecked car and stopped to investigate. He discovered a man’s leg protruding from beneath the machine and tried to release the body but was unable to do so, He ascertained that the man was dead and went for help. The machine was lifted and the body was removed to the Brown home on the lake shore of the village.

The man’s widow was formerly Miss Nellie Lewis, daughter of B.M. Lewis, of Glens Falls, formerly of Warrensburgh. Dolphus and Nellie Brown were married in Warrensburgh and

had three children. He was the senior member of the hardware firm of D.J. Brown and Company and was engaged in lumbering. Burial was in the Lake George Union Cemetery.

New Warrensburgh construction Several new buildings are going up in various parts of the village. Building operations now in progress on the Marion Park tract, just north of the village, indicate that hard times have not deterred lot owners from going forward with their home building plans.

Linsey Murdock has a two-story house nearly completed.

Edward Noble is building on the lot adjoining Mr. Murdocks’s property and Mrs. William Drake has a pretty bungalow in course of construction on what is known as King’s Addition, a section opened eighteen years ago and now nearly all built up.

Charles Roberts has a cellar now nearly ready for his new home on Warren Street and Mr. Fred Young has completed a house on the site of the one burned last year on the same street. The Cunningham farm land on Library Avenue was divided into building lots last summer which sold rapidly.

Grant Turner is preparing to build two houses this summer near the Cunningham farm house. George E. Farrar is building a house on Library Avenue and other lot owners expect to begin similar operations this season.

(Note – It would be interesting to know if these houses, all now a hundred years old, are still standing. The Cunningham farm house is today on the north corner of Library Avenue and Milton Avenue, once a convalescent home and now a boarding house. The George E. Farrar house is, I expect, the house on the north side of Library Avenue where the late

pharmacist Clyde Farrar lived until his death. I believe the Edward Noble house to be on Echo Lake. If anyone has any information on these structures and know who is living in them today, I would be happy to hear from you.

Warrensburgh Historical Society President Paul Gilchrist has been doing some interesting research on the whereabouts of the building, believed to be still standing, that housed the original Methodist Episcopal Church here. The 2016 historical calendar put out this year by the historical society not only shows a historic view of King’s Addition (area behind Top’s Grocery store) but also shows thirteen views of some of the town’s most historic homes. )

Good news for widows Probably more than 500 women living in Northern New York, besides an unknown number who would be restored to the Federal widow’s pension roll, will be benefited by the enactment of a bill now before the House of Representatives. It is expected to be favorably considered there. The bill is designed to increase from $12 per month the pension allowance of a widow who was the lawful wife of a veteran during the war and provides that all the widows shall receive $20 a month upon attaining the age of seventy years.

Civil War widow dies Mrs. Abigail Combs Smith, 83, of Warrensburgh, died Thursday night, April 11, 1916, from the effects of the grip after an illness of several weeks. She was the mother of twelve children and one step-daughter, ten of whom survive her.

She had twenty-seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Her first husband was John Combs, a veteran of the Civil War. She was a member of the Baptist Church.

Urgent notice The people of East Thurman wish it to be understood that only people who are married can live together here and any disorderly houses in East Thurman will be dealt with severely if they are not cleaned up at once.

Grand jury to consider new charges after infant death North Creek father remains in jail since assault

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — The case against a North Creek man

whose three-week old daughter died after an assault will be brought in front of a Warren County grand jury Friday, according to Warren County District Attorney Kate Hogan.

Nicholas Jones, 24, was arrested and charged by state police March 28 with first-degree assault, a class B felony; reckless assault of a child, a class D felony, and endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor.

The infant, Gabriella Rose Parker, clung to life for two days before succumbing to suffering injuries authorities said were inflicted by Jones.

Hogan did not comment on what additional charges would follow in light of the child’s death.

An autopsy was scheduled to be performed at Albany Medical Center last week, however, any results would be considered evidence and would not be made public by Hogan.

Records show the child was born March 6 at the Glens Falls Hospital to Jones and Nicole Parker.

The pair, according to police, shared a home in North Creek, where police were summoned at approximately 5 a.m.

March 28 for an emergency involving a 22-day-old infant who was reported to not be breathing.

Jones remains in Warren County Jail.

Bartender challenge returns to Basil and Wick’s

christina@denpubs.com

NORTH CREEK — When the BARRED! Adirondack Bartender Challenge returns to Basil and Wick’s April 9, there will be at least one familiar face in the crowd.

Liquid Chef and Whiteface Lodge bartender Zach Blair will be there but unlike last year, he won’t be competing. This round, he’ll be judging and giving the crowd a spectacular bartending demonstration, honed in part, in case he competed again this year.

He’s taken mixology to new heights, crafting his cocktails from information he gains from the customer, through a series of questions.

“Do you prefer sweet or savory? Tokyo or LA?” he said he asks, until he zeroes in on a custom drink about 15 questions later.

In the past year, he estimates he’s created about 2,000 original cocktails.

He’s a fan of classic drinks, though sticks to an occasional beer or bourbon for himself.

His craft though, is creating an experience along with the drink.

“I don’t always hit it out of the park,” he said, but more often than not, he’s made a great drink and a new fan to follow his work.

One time he recalled that wasn’t such a great time, was his own performance in BARRED! last year.

“I spilled my drink,” he said. He said he felt a bit out of his element, with the local competitors drawing from the crowd they were familiar with. The necessity of speed was something he hadn’t worked with before, either.

He’ll be able to put that experience to use Saturday, when he serves as a judge.

“I’ll see how they are using the materials…holding jiggers,” he said, in addition to assessing the flavors and presentations.

“Does it flow together? There has to be balance,” he said.

Sisters Kim and Pam Ladd, authors of “Happy Hour in the High Peaks: An Adirondack Bar Guide,” initially decided to host the event in several territories, with a follow up grand championship. It was inspired by the Food Network’s reality television show Chopped, where competing chefs receive a supply of mystery ingredients they must use to create a finished dish.

Blair was just one of the competitors from all over the Adirondack region and as far south as Troy to attend. That attendance made duplicating the contest unnecessary.

In addition, Kim said Basil and Wick’s staff did such a great job, they decided to keep it at the one location.

One change the Ladds did decide, however, was to

Man charged on DWI counts LAKE GEORGE — James T. Hughes, 40 of Lake George, was arrested by the Warren County Sheriff ’s department Saturday, April 2, at approximately 3:02 a.m.

Hughes allegedly was pulled over in a 1998 Dodge Dakota pickup truck at the intersection of Philips and Cortland Street after he failed to use his turn signal. While speaking to police, he was allegedly determined to under the influence while driving.

Hughes was arrested and charged with D-felony DWI, felony AUO, operating out of ignition interlock restrictions, unlicensed operation and failing to signal. Hughes has two previous DWI convictions within the past 10 years leading to the Felony DWI charge. His operating privilege in New York is also currently revoked for DWI resulting in the felony AUO charge, said police.

He is being held in the Warren County Correctional Facility pending arraignment.

bump the event from the winter into the spring.

In addition to Blair, judges this time around are Adirondack Almanack founder and editor John Warren, SUNY Adirondack culinary arts instructor Kathy Waite and Essex County attorney Julie Garcia.

Judges will evaluate each contestant on presentation, technique, creativity and taste.

Prior to the competition, Blair will give his bartending demo.

The first-place winner will receive a trophy, $100 cash and bragging rights. Second and third place prizes will also be awarded. Schroon Lake’s Mark Piper, musician and voiceover professional, will emcee the competition.

Spots to compete were nearly filled last week, but there’s plenty of room for spectators, said Ladd.

The fun gets started at 2 p.m. April 9 and is expected to last until about 4:30 p.m. at Basil and Wick’s, 3195 state Route 28, North Creek. There is no charge for admission to the event.

For more information contact Basil and Wick’s at 251-3100 or Happy Hour in the High Peaks at happyhourinthehighpeaks@ yahoo.com.

Bolton and Schroon Lake schools merge baseball and softball programs

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

BOLTON LANDING —The baseball and softball athletes of Bolton Central School have embarked on a new experience this spring — playing side-by-side with their counterparts from Schroon Lake Central School.

With an intent to preserve their traditional baseball and softball programs despite their declining enrollment, Bolton and Schroon Lake school districts have merged their spring sports at the varsity, junior varsity and modified levels. The two schools have about 200 students — Bolton’s pre-kindergarten through 12th grade enrollment is listed as 188, and Schroon Lake’s is 220.

The schools’ combined baseball and softball teams will be competing in Mountain Valley Athletic Conference MVAC of Section VII. Bolton Central Athletic Director Francisco Roca said the initiative has merit, and strengthens the athletic programs at both schools.

“Our number one priority is for our students to have as many athletic opportunities as possible,” he said, noting that the merger would allow student-athletes to receive age-appropriate sports training and competition through modified, junior varsity and varsity levels.

Roca said that in recent years, there’s been a diminishing number of Bolton students signing up for softball. Those turning out this year for the sport, however, will be joining with some experienced talented players — Schroon Lake’s softball team was a Section VII Class D finalist last year, ending with a 9-5 winning record.

The Bolton-Schroon Lake merger also has substantial benefits for Schroon Lake, as the school was unable to field a baseball team at any level last year. The merged programs will mean the Schroon Lake students will be joining Bolton baseball players who have for decades been very competitive.

Roca said that practices for each sport would be held alternately at the two schools, which are about a half-hour’s busride and 25 miles apart.

Bolton Central superintendent Michael Graney said that since Bolton Central doesn’t have a competition-level baseball field, games hosted by Bolton will be played at East Field in Glens Falls, but the baseball games hosted by Schroon Lake would be held on the Wildcat’s regulation home field. Softball games will alternate between the two schools, as both districts have fields appropriate for competition softball.

Graney said the 2016 joint varsity baseball team has 17 players, four from Schroon Lake and 13 from Bolton; and the merged varsity softball team has 21 players, 11 from Schroon lake and 10 from Bolton.

“So far, it’s been real positive — the kids are getting along great, and the schools’ athletic directors and transportation employees are making it all work,” Graney said.

“Both communities are supportive, and athletes are getting experience and training at appropriate levels,” he added, noting that the merger avoids drafting Freshmen players onto varsity teams before they receive adequate experience on Junior Varsity squads. “This is a win-win situation for both school districts,” he said.

Two years ago, Bolton and Warrensburg merged their boys soccer and girls soccer programs. Last year, the two schools extended the collaboration, with joint football, field hockey, volleyball and cross-country teams. In winter 2014-15, Bolton merged its alpine skiing program with Lake George Central.

Schroon Lake Superintendent Stephen Gratto praised the joint spring sports venture with Bolton.

“Since we don’t have enough players to field a baseball team and Bolton doesn’t have enough for a softball team, it’s a good deal for both schools,” he said. “This merger provides a big benefit, and we’re really happy about how things are turning out.”

Roca said the combined baseball and softball programs will be fielding a lot of talent for 2016 and in the years to come.

“Both programs combined will be tough, very competitive,” he said. “Perhaps, we’ll even be challenging for a title.”

Burghers strike back in seventh to beat Cougars Was it due to the Twilight Zone?

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — With a dramatic 11th-hour offensive surge, the Warrensburg Varsity Baseball team accomplished a 7-6 come-from-behind victory March 29 in over North Warren.

Enduring not only the Cougars’ potent ballplaying but frigid temperatures, the Burghers reversed a 6-4 Cougar lead in the bottom of the 7th inning with three runs on two hits combined with some aggressive base running.

In that last-chance stanza, Burgher catcher Brady Rounds hit a single, then stole two bases on a passed ball followed by a wild pitch. Backup pitcher rookie Zach Smith walked, then stole second.

With one out, a wild pitch was thrown and Rounds slid into home to score, and Smith followed on an overthrow back to the mound.

John Kelly, another new player for the Burghers, then scrutinized pitches to turn a full count into a walk, then stole second, advancing to third on a passed ball.

John LeFebvre then took a walk, followed by a grounder hit by Mark Monthony to the Cougar third baseman, sending Kelly to home plate, a split-second before the ball arrived for the

winning score.

Early in the game, the Burghers had taken a 4-0 lead with good base running and a solo home run clobbered by veteran three-sport athlete Jake Nemec.

Burgher coach Rex Reynolds said he was proud of his team, considering the talent that the Cougars have.

“North Warren is a very good ball club,” he said. “I am pleased with the determination my players showed against them.”

The Burghers, however, may have had some paranormal help in their victory, Reynolds said.

On Warrensburg’s historic Library Avenue Field, which Reynolds said has been like the “Twilight Zone” for opponents, the Burghers have lost only three or so games over the past four years.

In the Cougar-Burgher showdown, Justin Needham hit a home run, Tyler Peet batted 4 for 4, Ryan Fish was 2 for 4 scoring two runs and Justin Needham tallied three RBIs and pitcher Ryan Fish and his closer together tallied 11 strikeouts.

For the Burghers, Monthony was 2 for 5 and an RBI, Joe Turner was 2 for 4 and Brady Rounds was 2 for 2.

Burgher pitchers Turner and Nemec together tallied 10 strikeouts.

Cougars are connecting in season debut

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

CHESTERTOWN — North Warren Baseball Coach Josh Gifford said pre-season he’d be counting on his batters to be productive at the plate — and during the first week of area high school baseball, his players delivered for him.

The Cougars have tallied 22 hits in two consecutive games — against Warrensburg on March 29 and Salem March 30.

North Warren won 10-1 over Salem with a strong pitching performance from James Hayes, as well as a string of hits and good base-running from batters throughout the Cougar lineup.

Playing a complete game, Hayes recorded 16 strikeouts. Hayes mixed his wily fastballs with off-speed pitches. Midway in the game, he accomplished eight strikeouts in a row.

“Hayes kept them guessing all afternoon,” Gifford said.

Tyler Peet was 3 for 4 at bat, slamming a triple. Ryan Fish also hit a triple as well as tallying two RBI’s and two runs. Dylan Baker hit a double in this second game of the season.

Gifford said he was proud of his team’s strong start, which continues the winning string of six victories out of seven games that finished off the 2015 season. Fans were happy for this win against Salem, particularly since North Warren has a reputation of slow seasonal starts.

“Everyone is doing well at this point — they’ve bought into the program,” Gifford said. “Our players are working hard on their conditioning and they’re stronger, which has given them confidence.”

Gifford said that Hayes was warming up in the first inning, when gave up one to the Generals. After that scoring run, however, he got into his groove and kept the the Salem batters at bay for the remainder of the game.

The prior day, North Warren lost to Warrensburg 7-6 after the Burghers overcame a 6-4 Cougar lead by staging three runs on two hits and some stolen bases, concluding with a fielder’s choice RBI. During these first two games, Cougar batters were connecting, providing a promise of an action-packed season. Leading the charge was North Warren first baseman/pitcher Tyler Peet, 4 of 4 at bat during the Salem showdown and 7 of 8 over the first two games, including a double and a triple, Gifford said.

“Tyler has gotten stronger and his confidence is rising,” Gifford said.

“He’s absolutely crushing the ball.”

County floats possible spot for emergency rigs Plan calls to move equipment into Perkins Recycling property

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — A half-decade discussion on where to house hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of county Office of Emergency Services equipment, took a step toward a temporary solution last week.

The action, however, did not please Brian LaFlure, the county’s emergency services director.

“Unbelievable,” he said when the Warren County Finance Committee resolved to task Public Works Superintendent Jeff Tennyson with assessing the cost to move the equipment, which is currently sitting outside, to the empty portion of the county-owned former Perkins Recycling property on Warren Street.

“I can’t fit the equipment in there. I can’t get it in the driveway,” he said as he walked out of the room.

While he’d taken a seat along the wall during the meeting, he’d not been asked any questions by committee members.

In January, LaFlure made a presentation to the Public Safety Committee, asking supervisors to consider his sketches for a simple metal kit structure.

It would come with a price tag, he estimated, of $120,000, and would include electricity, a cement floor and one heated bay for a hazardous materials spill response equipment trailer.

While the idea of building a new building had been bantered about for years with no action, the idea seemed to gain traction during this round as state auditors, reported LaFlure, said the equipment, purchased with grant money, could not be kept outside.

The Public Safety Committee then moved the proposal to the board’s Finance Committee to find funding up to $150,000 for the project this year.

Thurman Supervisor and Public Safety Committee Chair Evelyn Wood, though not on the Finance Committee, was present at the Finance Committee.

“We weren’t called and we weren’t invited,” she said to the Finance Committee, when learning some members had taken a tour of the Perkins building.

“I can see where we are going,” she said, in response to the lack of consideration for the resolution as passed on from her committee.

Queensbury-at-Large Supervisor Rachel Seeber acknowl-

edged “the elephant in the room,” noting, “There’s tension between Brian (LaFlure’s) and Jeff (Tennyson’s) departments…

We spent money of an engineer and then do nothing with that.”

That initial report gave an estimate of $781,000 to build a new building.

LaFlure had been saying for five years he needed a building, yet no movement took place until an auditor said the same thing, said Wood. She noted the vast difference in the committee’s approval of $5.7 million to SUNY Adirondack for its STEM project.

Glens Falls 2nd Ward Supervisor Peter McDevitt said comparing the two was “apples and oranges.”

While some supervisors had concerns that storing the equipment alongside cardboard recycling could be a possible fire hazard, it was also mentioned that the current tenant could, at some point, vacate the building, leaving more room for the county.

In the end, the committee agreed to have Tennyson establish a cost to convert the empty portion of the building to fit the needs of the emergency equipment, currently suggested to be about $20,000.

Horicon Supervisor Matt Simpson explained how the tour of the building came about. “We were presented with different option,” he said. “I was going to research the information.”

Some committee members did apologize to Wood for excluding her.

“I didn’t feel left out,” she said “I didn’t even know I was left out.”

Libertarian chapter forming in county Voters tired of twoparty system, says temporary chairman

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

GLENS FALLS —The first meeting hasn’t been conducted yet, but Christopher Schmidt, newly appointed temporary chairman of the Warren County chapter of the Libertarian Party, is ready to tackle local issues.

“We won’t be running candidates this upcoming election in November 2016, as far as we know,” he said, giving the chapter time to focus on those issues.

Some of those issues have been bantered about recently, such as the constitutionality of the voting structure for the county board of supervisors.

Others have been of interest to Schmidt for some time, as he’s kept himself involved as a political activist.

“I think its pretty straight forward in how it applies,” he said of the one person, one vote rule he says is being violated.

Schmidt advocated for equal voting wards in Queensbury in 2012.

He operates a local quarterly newspaper, “The Observation Post,” and led a campaign in 2010 for the Glens Falls Police Department to reduce the use of tasers It was that work locally that put him on the radar for the New York State Libertarian Party, selecting him for his new role.

He’s also concerned with the disconnect with officials and the public with drug abuse and homelessness.

“There’s a lot of drug use in our region. There’s a lot of taboo surrounding a (homeless) shelter and a rehab center within the city,” he said.

While the problems have been acknowledged, “more needs to be done to address it,” he said.

There are strengths, too, he’d like to see developed: “The medical field growing here.”

Partnering with SUNY Adironack, he said, “could bring more programs and other conservation efforts.”

Schmidt helped form the committee for sustainability at SUNY Adirondack. That cause, he said, can extend to the county government.

“There other ways to help the economic landscape,” he said. “One is with operational costs. It’s 2016, its ridiculous; these buildings should be paying for themselves,” he

Christopher Schmidt said of the county buildings.

Not all on the list are local issues.

He’s a strong advocate for the Second Amendment and expects the Safe Act to also be a topic the chapter addresses, though the main focus will be on promoting the party’s message and fielding candidates for elected office starting next year.

The informal introductory meeting will discuss some of these issues, while assembling a list of county officers and volunteers.

Schmidt reported good feedback so far from those

wishing to join the chapter, or support their efforts as a neutral party.

“Many Republicans are sick of their party. Democrats are sick of their party.

People that stand on substance, what we have to offer going to resonate,” he said.

The meeting is free to the public and is set for 6:30 p.m.

April 13 at Rock Hill Bakehouse Café on Exchange Street in Glens Falls.

Stec blasts lack of transparency in state budget process

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — State legislators are patting themselves on the back this week for passing a sixth on-time budget.

But Assemblyman Dan Stec (R-114thQueensbury) is hopping mad about the process.

The state constitution requires lawmakers to allow three days to pass from the time a bill is introduced to when it comes up for a vote.

The so-called “message of necessity” mechanism allows lawmakers to skirt the process in the event of an emergency.

Stec, a Republican, scorched the Democratic-led Assembly for invoking the policy for a fourth consecutive year.

“They’re getting more daring in their use of it,” Stec said. “It’s intent is for emergency legislation, not, ‘Oh, we’re surprised April 1 is here!’”

The mechanism was invoked as the budget

H

deadline approached shortly before midnight on April 1.

Stec’s motion to delay the vote was defeated.

Lawmakers didn’t receive the 702-page budget until 11:48 p.m., Stec said — just four hours before the vote, and before legislators had a chance to read it.

The state budget consists of 10 separate bills, Stec said.

The debt service bill is usually fully-aged, he explained, including this year, when it arrived three days before deadline.

The other nine are a mixed bag.

But all of them required a message of necessity this year.

While legal, Stec said usage of the mechanism isn’t in “the spirit of the Constitution.”

“It’s not about a late night,” he said. “The public has a constitutional right to view legislation.”

Since taking office in 2011, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has made delivering on-time budgets a point of pride, bringing a degree of stabil-

ello Patrons and Friends!

Thank goodness, spring has finally arrived! All I have to say is, let the golfing begin!

Hopefully, continuous nice weather will begin, the flowers will start to bloom and our new Outdoor Reading Area will get a lot of use. This week’s column will contain a lot of information, some of it will be repeated info, but the rest is strictly library policy that needs to be reviewed. So, here we go: Library Hours: Since the first of this year, the library instituted new hours and they are as follows: Monday, Wednesday, Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Tuesday and Thursday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Saturday 9 a.m. to noon and closed on Sundays.

Library Services: The library can provide you with black & white copies for $0.15 per copy; $0.30 for double-sided; color copies for $0.25 per copy; $0.50 for double-sided. We also have fax services for $1 per sheet and we do not charge for the cover sheet on out-going faxes. We can also receive a fax for you at $1 per sheet, however, we will charge for the incoming cover sheet, if there is one. Our fax number is 623-2426, in case you are wondering. We can also scan documents to your Flash Drive for free, but copies from it will incur the above stated prices.

Library Programs: Throughout the year the library provides FREE programs for children and adults. We advertise these programs within the library and on our webpage therichardslibrary.com or therichardslibrary.org. They are also on our Facebook page at facebook.com/Richards Library. We will also put out Public Service Announcements on WCKM, 98.5

ity to a process that was often months behind schedule under his predecessors.

This year’s $154 billion spending plan contained several pieces of legislation that required deep analysis, said Stec, including paid family leave and the minimum wage increase.

New York City will go to $15 per hour within three years, while upstate has until 2021 to get to $12.50, with future increases based on the economic climate.

Stec said lawmakers didn’t know the details.

“It wasn’t as simple as the number is $15,” Stec said. “They came up with a hybrid.”

The lawmaker said the lack of debate reminded him of the mystery surrounding the SAFE Act, the controversial gun control legislation passed in 2013 following the Sandy Hook mass shooting.

“People were angry and they should be,” Stec said. “It’s unreasonable to not allow the public access to these bills.”

FM and when I am not suffering from amnesia (or “Mad Cow”), I send flyers to the surrounding libraries advertising our programs. For all children’s programs, an adult, parent or legal guardian, must attend with the child. Snacks and drinks are allowed, but we ask that the drinks be in re-sealable containers to prevent spillage.

Computer Usage: We request that all patrons that would like to use our desk top computers, please stop by the Circulation Desk first, to check in. All patrons may sign out one of our laptops as long as any accrued fines are below $5 for adults and $2 for children and teens.

Also, when using the desktop or laptop computers, cell phone usage is not allowed, nor are drinks and food allowed in the area of the computers. Cell phone calls may be made between the entry doors at the Elm Street entrance or down by the Library Avenue entrance. When the weather is hospitable, you can make your calls outside of either entrance. But to be additionally clear, no cell phone calls are allowed in the library. This is to protect your privacy and so our patrons are not disturbed by your conversations. We thank you for your co-operation.

Children: First off, we want and encourage children to use the library. However, there are some specific rules parents/ guardians must be made aware of. Children can use the library to play/work on computers, read a book, play games or do their homework as long as they are respectful of the other patrons and follow library rules and directions of the Director and/or staff. If any child or group of children need to be reminded several times about this, they will be asked to leave, but they can return the next day. Once a child/children

Assemblyman Dan Stec addresses the state assembly on Friday, April 1.

enters the library to do any of the above, and then they leave the library, they are done for the day in the library. This is to curtail the “in and out” syndrome and allow us to maintain accurate attendance figures. If children are constantly coming in and out of the library this distracts the staff from attending to the other patrons or trying to remember if the children have already been counted. Again, they are welcome to come back the next day. Now this brings me to a very important point. The library staff are not trained or on hand to perform daycare, babysitting duties or operate as a “latch key” center for pre-teens and teens of any age. We are entirely engaged in circulation, reference and other library related duties. Also, the library and its staff are not responsible for the welfare of children who are left unattended.

The library is, however, a safe haven for children if they feel they are in jeopardy. No child will ever be turned away if they feel they are in danger. For more information concerning this, please read the Policy on Unattended Children in the Library that is located near the desktop computer area or please refer to NYS Social Service Law, Section 371, Subdivision 4-a.

Finally, some upcoming events slated for the library. Again, please go to our webpage or Facebook page, listed above, to keep up-to-date with the events happening at the library. On Saturday, April 9, Dean Moore, from Up Yonda Farms will be presenting a program called “Critters in the Litter” at 10 a.m.

Find out what lurks in litter and your garbage cans! Kids will love it! Sounds gross, so I will be there! As an early reminder, Lotus Loves Literacy will be presenting its second annual Poetry Slam Thursday, April 21, at The Lodge on Echo Lake, at 6 p.m. Proceeds will be going to The World Awareness Children’s Museum and The Richards Library. Call Maggie for additional information or to enter at 478-8069.

That’s it for this week friends! See you in two weeks!
