KONCIKOWSKI REMEMBERED AS TENACIOUS, ENTERPRISING

Water Slide World owner dies By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

Adirondacks to be alive, again, with the sound of music

LAKE GEORGE | Noted local entrepreneur and area land developer Gary S. Koncikowski, 70, owner of Water Slide World in Lake George, died unexpectedly May 24 — and several of his friends shared memories this week of their shared experiences.

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

‘WORLD-CLASS ENTREPRENEUR’

Koncikowski grew up in Argyle and helped run his family’s farm beginning at the age of 10 when his father died. He graduated from Argyle Central School in 1965, then pursued a degree in Business Management at SUNY Albany. “Gary was very enterprising,” Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson said Monday, noting that Koncikowski was one of his fi rst clients when he opened his surveying business, D.L. Dickinson Associates, in 1978. “Gary was a world-class entrepreneur — he built subdivisions all over Warren County.” » Koncikowski Cont. on pg. 2
