Elvis tribute artist Riley Jenkins, 15, of Clarksville Tenn. sings a song made famous by the ‘King of Rock ’n Roll’ during the May 30 opening concert of the five-day Lake George Elvis Festival. Enjoyed by hundreds of Presley fans, the festival featured performances by the nation’s leading Elvis tribute artists, cruises on the lake, appearances by several of the performers around Lake George Village, and a preliminary competition leading to the sanctioned Graceland Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest scheduled for August in Memphis. Local entrepreneur Jason Sherry — ElvisFestival.com president — co-founded the Lake George festival in 2004, and has since established Elvis festivals in a half-dozen other cities, including Chicago and Las Vegas.

NORTH CREEK | Mike Wilson, a senior at Johnsburg Central School and member of North Creek Volunteer Fire Department, was recognized last month as a new Eagle Scout, scouting’s highest honor. For many years, Mike was an active
member of North Creek Troop 36, but completed his Eagle requirements through Chestertown Troop 30. Few Boy Scouts get to this level of recognition and responsibility. Successful candidates must complete at least 21 merit badges as well as plan and implement a service project. Eagles must also have a track record of troop leadership and a successful Board of Review result. North Creek Volunteer Fire Department member Drew Briggs traced Wilson’s rise from a Explorer Program participant to a junior firefighter before becoming a full member. » Scout Cont. on pg. 7

LAKE GEORGE | The Warren County Board of Supervisors have recognized Serena Ruzbacki and Jessica Young, two women who overcame years-long obstacles and graduated from a two-year SUNY Adirondack program, and who will be pursuing degrees at four-year colleges. Ruzbacki, 23, grew up moving back and forth between her parents’ homes in Minerva and Johnsburg, graduating from the Minerva Central School. In her final semester of high school, she was taking one college class per day while struggling with undiagnosed mental health issues. Ruzbacki was eventually diagnosed with bipolar disorder after a suicide attempt.

TICONDEROGA | State agencies are holding the salt. The state Department of Transportation will use less of the substance this winter in a pilot program designed to monitor the environmental impacts of its application, a practice watchdogs contend is the modern-day equivalent to acid rain. A test area in Lake George will cover a 17-mile stretch of Route 9N from the Village of Lake George to the Town of Bolton. The Mirror Lake test area will be launched on a 16-mile stretch of state Route 86 starting at Old Military Road that passes through North Elba, Wilmington and the Village of Lake Placid. » Salt Cont. on pg. 9
