Tyler and Nicholas Millett discuss strategies about how to rescue Santa and Mrs. Claus prior to boarding the “Candy Cane” Train at the depot in North Creek Friday, Dec. 6. Part of the “Lights On” festivities in North Creek, the “Candy Cane” Train was a new attraction this year. Children were asked to board the train and “rescue” Santa and Mrs. Clause whose sleigh had become stuck, and deliver the famous duo back to North Creek.

Johnsburg grad seeking to make a ski film here ByThom Randall thom@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK Ñ Cory Gazaille, whoÕ s been studying fimmaking after graduating from Johnsburg High School in 2010, is seeking to produce a ski film shot in the lower Adirondacks.

On Dec. 6, Gazaille, who was raised in Thurman, discussed his ideas and shared his plans for the undertaking.

Rather than make the routine ski action film that shows one stunt after another, Gazaille is seeking to give people a taste of life in the lower Adirondacks, offer a

glimpse into the local culture, while portraying the beauty of the landscape here.

Also, he plans to accomplish it with flourishes of cinematic style normally reserved for narrative filmmaking rather than documentaries, he said, noting that he intends to market the finished work to various film festivals Ò I not only want to give insights into life here, but I want to explore how rural life the Adirondacks is so different than metropolitan areas,Ó he said. Ò ItÕ s remarkable that everything is so different, yet we are within driving distance from AlbanyÓ Martin Fahy and Ben Richards of North

Creek, as well as Liam Harrison of North River are to be skier-actors in the film, Gazaille said. Vinny Varsalona of New Jersey has been lined up as a cinematographer.

Gazaille is to serve as writer, director of photography and producer.

After graduation from Johnsburg High, GazailleÕ s been attending the Savannah School of Art & Design in Georgia. HeÕ s in his senior year at the college.

Already, heÕ s shot and produced a two short films with a similar approach, one on skateboarding and the other on kayaking.

Ann Hornbeck fiber art quilts on display at town library JOHNSBURG Ñ The Corner Gallery of the Town of Johnsburg Library is currently displaying the colorful and imaginative fiber art quilts of Ann Hornbeck. Ann has been sewing since she was in seventh grade. Over the years, she made many of her own and her daughterÕ s clothes, at least until her daughter thought it was not Ò coolÓ to wear mom-made clothes.

Ann taught Social Studies for 32 years at Minerva Central School, retiring in 2002. She then decided to educate herself about the art of quilting and attended classes in the Glens Falls area for traditional quilting methods.

When she had the opportunity to learn about Gee Bend Alabama Quilts and to see the quilts in a show at the Whitney Art Museum in New York City, it changed her whole perspective on quilting. As Ann says about the Gee Bend Quilts, Ò Just wonderful free composition, no rules just color, shape and art.Ó She attends a number of weeklong Quilting by the Lake workshops, held every summer in central New York, where she finds many fiber artists with unlimited imaginations and superior technical skill.

The pieces in the show have been done since 2002. Ann quilts in a dedicated room that her

husband, Peter, had created for her. It has two sky lights, a large design board and lots of shelving. Importantly, it has no phone, so no interruptions, but it does have a radio which gets good reception of NPR. She quilts primarily when the weather is terrible.

She uses a very good sewing machine with all the bells and whistles, and a wide variety of materials, but primarily cotton fabrics. She will buy a fabric that she loves and eventually use it in one project or another. The fabric comes from all kinds of places, and Ann insists that she is not a fabric snob, although she says great thread is critical so she does buy the best on sale if at all possible.

Her work is truly amazing art. It will be on display at the Corner Gallery through January.

The library is open on Wednesday from 11-5; on Thursday from 11-7; Friday from 11-5; and on Saturday from 10-2. The library is located at 210 Main Street in North Creek, across from the Tannery Pond Community Center. Call 2514343 for information on programs and exhibits.

The Minerva Christmas Bazaar: A great event!

By Mike Corey

denpubs@denpubs.com MINERVA Ñ The gymnasium at Minerva Central School was buzzing with music, voices, and positive energy the afternoon and evening of Friday, Dec. 6. With the likes of Santa and Mrs. Claus gracing the gym and taking Christmas present orders while sitting in very comfortable chairs, the air was alive with fun and Christmas Spirit. In short, it was the place to be.

The annual Minerva Christmas Bazaar theme was Ò Christmas in the Mountains,Ó and the crowds of people who came to the school certainly got a good taste of what the holiday in Minerva is all about. There was something for just about everyone at the bazaar. Looking for a great bowl of soup? It was there. How about a beautiful wreath for your door? Cookies of every style and sugar content? Tree ornaments, hand-made cards, maple jelly, Christmasthemed fabrics, jewelry, doggie treats, apple pies, amazing craft items. These things and

more were there.

And the music? It was tough to beat! For all your Christmas music needs (and most of us have them), the MCS seventh grade guitar players under the direction of Sabrina LaPointe played many seasonal favorites. Additionally, groups of MCS music students and adults entertained with their own special renditions of holiday favorites.

The list of vendor participants was impressive: Minerva Service Organization, Sleeping Giants Seniors, Minerva Historical Society, Minerva PTSO, Dollars for Scholars, Maple Knoll Farm, White Water Manor, Planet Minerva, MSC Student Council (with their community memory tree), Shannon StoneÕ s Cozy CafŽ , MSC Yearbook, MCS Alumni, Minerva Rescue Squad, Operation Santa, individual artisans, and more.

It was a great time and a great place to find yourself on a Friday evening. The holiday spirit was there Ð one didnÕ t have to search for it. Congratulations to the Minerva Historical Society (and especially Kathy Halloran) for organizing a wonderful event.

MCS Seventh Grade student guitar players entertain.

Last of the season

A

fter enjoying one last, long day of hunting, I sat out on my back porch deck to watch the sun set. I stayed out long enough to see the stars begin to sparkle in the night sky.

It had been a good day to be in the woods and on the hunt.

There had been adequate snow cover to illustrate the comings and goings of deer, and all sorts of other woodland creatures. Even a few winter moths were in the air, fluttering by and catching my eye with a I finished up the last day by taking the long route back to camp, which went up and over a long ridge that features stunning vistas of the surrounding hills and mountains.

I decided to go up there because I hadnÕ t climbed the ridge even once during the entire season.

The hike took me through some thick spruce, and lots of open hardwoods, but surely the finest part of my final journey was the time I spent sitting alone, atop a huge glacial erratic that is set on the edge of a wide open field of moss.

WeÕ ve always referred to the clearing as the Big Grassy, even though the moss is so thick, it feels like youÕ re walking on a big, down mattress.

I guess my urge to hike over the hill was my one last chance to grasp for a little bit of the pieces and places that were still left in my season.

This year, I didnÕ t get into the woods near as often as I have in the past. It appears there were more responsibilities this year, and less time to escape them. It canÕ t be that IÕ m slowing down!

Overall, the season was a productive one, with a few nice bucks taken. The high point came when Poppy, the oldest member of our crew, took a buck on the first hunt of the morning of the season. The deer was promptly dressed, dragged back to camp and hung before the morningÕ s coffee even had a chance to cool.

When the Big Game Hunting season officially came to a conclusion on Sunday, Dec. 8, I expect there were many sportsmen and women celebrating another year of outdoor adventures.

Whether a tag was filled during their annual fall forays is likely inconsequential.

The Minerva Service Organization offers up amazing cookies.

Sara Paige-Hodges and Dakota Bennett dish out free hot chocolate.

Too often, there is too much emphasis placed on the Ò take,Ó with little regard for the Ò give.Ó After having spent many of my years in the pursuit of fish, fowl and game, IÕ ve come to realize and understand the true rewards.

Certainly, there are benefits of the wild harvest which may include medallions of venison loin, smoked wild turkey or fresh salmon. These are the tangible, and tasteful rewards of the hunt.

Such physical aspects of the wild pursuit and harvest are readily available. But whatÕ s often overlooked are an equal measure of benefits that are rarely considered, except by those who share them of course.

Surely there are the physical health benefits achieved through long hours of hiking, climbing and occasionally dragging. There are also the important skill sets required in the process of putting together the necessary organization, planning and preparation to put on the hunt.

It has been widely acknowledged that any amount of time we spend in natural surroundings is more beneficial than a comparable duration of time spent indoors.

In fact, it is likely the camaraderie and regular tomfoolery of camp life that remains the most overlooked aspect of the sporting life. There is no sleep so deep to compare with a camp sleep.

Despite the usual snoring, wheezing and an occasional toot or two, there is nothing like a soft bed and a warm stove to restore the weary bones and sore muscles of a hunter whoÕ s been busy tromping through the thick woods since before dawn.

Camp life is an experience that provides great stress relief, offers fine companionship and delivers a host of other positive benefits, including personal responsibility, punctuality and of course, compassion, communication and freedom.

Hunting camp is a most unique location where men can become boys and boys can become men. IÕ ve been reduced to tears on many occasions, when I was laughing so hard it hurt.

Unfortunately, less than 7 percent of the nationÕ s population continues to take to the hunt. Overall, participation levels continue to hold solid, due to the consistent influx of female hunters.

All across the nation, traditional deer camps have been bringing in does to keep the numbers up. Hunters do indeed need to cross the gender line.

Hunting is an age old activity that helps to sharpen our senses, steel our resolve, improve our memory and hone our hereditary predatory skills. It is a natural activity Ithat requires regular practice to restore our innate hunting skills.

It also provides us with the opportunity to experience and explore the concrete matters of both life and death.

There is a unique change that comes over a person when they are far removed from typical human interactions. It is a process thatÕ s been described as the Ò freedom of the hills.Ó It comes

Snow moths, aka Winter Moths often appear in the late Fall woods on warm days. The warmer weather often stirs them to come out from under leafy cover and fly about erratically. The sight of something white flickering in the distance, always seems to catch a whitetail hunter’s attention, especially when viewed out of the corner of an eye. I’ve spun around more than once to see nothing but a moth. from a unique combination of primitive living and primeval adventure. Anglers certainly get a taste of it on occasion, but only hunters have to deal with it head on.

Freedom is likely the greatest reward a hunter receives in return for putting in their time in the woods. For many, it is the only such opportunity they have available throughout the entire year to shed the worries and responsibilities of everyday life.

For many, it provides welcome and well earned relief. And there are still a few intrusions from those who have to deal with cell phones, and those who have to deal with the folks who deal with cell phones.

Cell phones certainly provide a valuable purpose, but as an irate camper once pointed out; Ò If they can get ahold of you on the damn phone, they can get ahold of me. I go to camp in order to escape such intrusions.Ó For those of us who continue to live by a sporting calendar, the seasons will continue to be defined by the outdoor activities that are available, rather than by some simple dates printed on an appointment calendar.

In the process, the seasons will continue to present new realities and provide unique challenges as weather patterns fluctuate, forests change and time passes more swiftly than before.

Through it all, there will remain only one core tenet, which can only be found huddled around a warm stove on a cold evening in camp. Camps may come and go, in all shapes, sizes and comfort ranges.

But it isnÕ t the physical structure of camp that provides the main attraction. It is the camaraderie of the hunt, of the shared chores, and the near misses that must be shared.

The season is officially over, and my next trip into camp will probably require skis. IÕ ll likely be back soon to seal up a few cracks; rodent-proof a few holes and pack out one last load.

Then, IÕ ll sit and stare at the coals which glow in the stove and begin planning for next yearÕ s adventure. Maybe IÕ ll start the year by climbing the far ridge, while I still have the energy.

Support the ‘preferred alternative’

EditorÕ s Note: At the time of this printing, the Adirondack Park Agency was poised to make an historic classification of thousands of acres of former Finch Pruyn land, known as the Essex Chain of Lakes. The following is a joint statement from Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Chairman William Farber and Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randall Douglas regarding a new proposed classification known as the ‘preferred alternative.’

T

he proposed APA Classification map released last week for the Essex Chain of Lakes sustains some key recreational priorities for Essex and Hamilton counties, particularly within the five towns that represent the Upper Hudson River Hub while providing protections for the most sensitive environmental areas.

The establishment of a Wild Forest designation for key portions of the property will enhance recreational connections between our towns, and therefore economic opportunity for all of them. Plus, as we sustain the opportunity to connect these communities to the Forest Preserve, we cater to a broad group of recreational users and tie in our businesses back to the opportunity of the natural resource.

Of particular importance to our communities has been: * Connecting the communities directly together, for recreational opportunities from mountain biking to snowmobiling * Assuring the general public access which is close and proximate to the Essex Chain, the Cedar River, and the Hudson River The packet released appears to assure the opportunities for those priorities and much more!

The recommendation represents a tremendous amount of hard work, collaboration and compromises on the parts of the local communities, stakeholders, the APA and the state Department of Environmental Conservation. The result is a classification map which appears to weave together a rich maze of public comments, while achieving natural resource protection and fostering future economic opportunity.

Breaking down traditional parochial boundaries and thinking is not easy, particularly in the Adirondacks. The efforts that these five towns have made to come together, plan together and, frankly, stand together, should be applauded and emulated going forward. The local governments deserve particular credit for their efforts to invite public input through community meetings, to foster productive dialogue through group planning exercises and, yes, to take the time to listen and understand the positions of those with differing views.

When it comes to the Adirondacks being heard, this stands as a great success.

It would appear that the State Agencies have been listening to all of us, as have Elected Officials right up to Governor Cuomo. It must be noted, that Governor CuomoÕ s willingness to come to the Park yet again, and listen to the concerns of the people involved, deserves our deep gratitude. Beyond that, Governor Cuomo demonstrated a deep understanding of Adirondack Park dynamic, when he suggested that Adirondack leaders should be talking more directly to each other. Governor CuomoÕ s view, that there existed an opportunity here, to respect the highest priority needs of the towns and the highest priorities of the environmental constituencies, may be about to play out, for the betterment of the Adirondack Park.

Did our communities and constituents get everything we wanted in the proposed Essex Chain designation? Of course not! Nor should anyone have expected that one parcel of land could ultimately be classified in a way that would allow it to be everything for everyone. But the opportunities that could soon be before Essex and Hamilton Counties to provide unparalleled recreational opportunities and spur important new economic activity are exciting and historic, and set the stage for a much brighter future for our communities.

Essex and Hamilton counties are the only two counties located entirely within the Adirondack Park, and represent more than 2.4 million of the ParkÕ s total 6 million acres. Adirondack Park. Even more significant, roughly 45 percent of Essex County and roughly 65 percent of Hamilton County are made up of state Forest Preserve land.

A community with heart

Letters to the Editor

To the News Enterprise:

I am the volunteer director of the Johnsburg Food Pantry in North Creek and I wanted to share some recent experiences I have had. As with all other food pantries in the area, ours has had a decrease in funding and an increase in the number of families needing our services. As a result, our shelves are often depleted after a Tuesday distribution, leaving us wondering how we will be able to get enough food to feed all of those in our community who need it. Several amazing things have happened to make our continuing possible.

First, the local churches throughout the Johnsburg community have created a non-ending stream of donations on a regular basis all year. Recently, the local Cub Scout troop did a collection and when I walked into the pantry building after theyÕ d dropped off their collection, I burst into tears. They had gathered enough food to fill all of our tables. I was absolutely awed by the overwhelming generosity of the members of our own community who give through their churches and gave to the Cub Scouts and filled our shelves.

Knowing our problem from the Ô insideÕ , several of our volunteers made crafts using their own time and creativity to sell and raise additional monies. In addition, the Lights On Committee gave us a table at the Copperfield last weekend and we collected even more food and financial donations.

Finally, each year, Gore Mountain discounts skiers tickets in return for a food donation and so far this year, we have had several vans full of non-perishable foods donated through Gore.

This weekend, the small North River Church will assemble 150 plates of homemade Christmas cookies to be included in the Christmas dinner baskets the pantry will be distributing. The people of our community and organizations like our churches and Gore Mountain have assured that we will be able to feed our deserving community members through 2013. Where else would one find such caring and generosity but in this wonderful North Country community of Johnsburg?

The Pantry isnÕ t out of the woods yet, and will continue to need such caring donations in order to manage in 2014, but IÕ m feeling so full of love and caring for all that these various individuals and organizations have done to help others. I hope everyone who has given will celebrate the holidays this year with warmth in their hearts knowing that theyÕ ve made a difference for so many of their neighbors. I feel so proud to live in a community with such a big heart.

Anita L. Abrams, North River

Reaction to viewpoint To the News Enterprise:

The Viewpoint by Dalton of CFES was a diatribe about the cost of a college education. DaltonÕ s presentation gave short shrift to the factors affecting the pricing of college tuition and used statistics in a questionable fashion.

For example, he states that Ò over the past five years, tuition at public four-year colleges increased 27 percent beyond inflation while at private colleges that increase is 13 percent.Ó There are three problems here. First, private tuition has been market priced. Public colleges have tuition subsidized by the stateÕ s tax payers.

Second, tuition is paid in dollars. The 27 percent increase in public college tuition since 2008 is about $1900, while that for a private college would be $3600 for the 13 percent increase.

Third, the states have cut their support for public higher education from around 75 percent to 20 percent or less of the collegesÕ instruction budgets. Reported cuts for this year include: CA: 20, PA: 19, NH: 20-plus. Additionally, the Federal government has cut funding to colleges. As state and federal subsidizing of colleges declines, you can expect tuition at public colleges to approach market prices.

Dalton: Ò . . . have failed to curb spending on bricks and mortar . . . Ó At state colleges it takes 4-6 years for buildings to go from proposal to completion. New construction has to be approved at the state level. Building needs recognized in 2008 would be coming on line this year, just in time to provide space for the additional students arising from the CFES programs.

Other Dalton issues include tenured professors and too much spending on technology. The tenure matter is a discussion for a separate letter. Suffice to say that tenure is not the same as seniority in a union shop. Ò Too much technologyÓ ? What should these colleges provide, clay tablets and a pointed sticks?

Many state universities are municipalities. Many have populations larger than any municipality in Essex or Clinton County: 20,000 or more students. Because they were established by state legislatures in rural areas, many provide water, sewer, fire, police, EMT, garbage removal, road repair, building and grounds maintenance, adjudication and other services one might find in a municipality. Those costs increase as state support decreases. As the university Ò ownsÓ the land, property tax revenue is not possible. Universities have to meet state and federal codes, mandates and so on, many of which do not apply to private colleges.

Dalton applauds the proposed federal college rating system. But, one need not wait for the government to rank colleges. The U.S. News and World Report and SmartMoney periodicals are doing this. Also, there are ratings out for the best programs in many fields, compiled by the respective professional organizations, for example: engineering, architecture, etc.

JOHNSBURG Ñ Retired Glens Falls obstetrician/ gynecologist Doctor Dan OÕ Keeffe was the featured speaker at Johnsburg Historical SocietyÕ s annual holiday luncheon. The event, held at Inn on Gore Restaurant in North Creek on Dec. 2, was attended by 36 members and guests.

At age 92, the remarkable Doctor Dan is energetic, tall, straight, charming, still plays tennis three times a week, and has an impressive memory and a gift for storytelling. His hilarious tales are recounted in his newly released book, Ò Ride Up, Slide Down,Ó co-written with his cousin Mary Cunningham Moro.

Doctor Dan, a 1938 graduate of North Creek High School, talked about the early days of skiing on Gore Mountain, the primitive equipment, the old rope tows, the truck rides up the mountain, the boarding houses and the Ski Patrol. He delighted the audience with tales of midnight outhouse relocations, skipjacking races, and skating on Mill Pond. The underlying theme of his talk was his love for the people and his appreciation for the privilege of growing up in a wonderland of natural beauty and recreational opportunities.

At the Johnsburg Historical Society business meeting prior to Doctor DanÕ s presentation, Nominating Chair Sally Heidrich presented the slate of officers and board members for 2014: Delbert Chambers, David Braley, Larry Carr, Michelle San Antonio, Lyle Dye, Sally Heidrich, Kathy Maiorana, and two new members, John Stafford and Jack Masten. The slate was passed unanimously.

All are welcome to JHS open meetings the first Monday of each month at 11 a.m. at Wevertown Community Center. For more information call 251-5788.

Gazaille, who attended Warrensburg High School for a short time years ago, said heÕ s intending to shoot the ski film on Gore Mountain and other area slopes. Ò I know the area and its resources and the local people,Ó he said.

If equipment and sponsors are lined up in several weeks, he may start shooting initial sequences of the film as early as late January, he said. Ò People up in our area are more connected with the natural environment, and I want to communicate that,Ó he said.

“Through this film, I want to bring others back to nature.Ó

At the Christmas tree Ò Lights On,Ó Supervisor Ron Vanselow welcomed all, Arnheiter listed the events for the weekend, Pastor Wayne Schoonmaker led a candle light service, and Pastor Don Allen offered prayer amidst community caroling led by Denise Conti.

This year, Saratoga North Creek Railroad (SNCRR) added the Ò Candy CaneÓ train, an original Canadian National railroad car from the early 1920Õ s, according to Stephen Flemmer, a SNCRR mechanic, who assisted with the painting and restoration of the car. It was decorated in total elf fashion by Thomas and friends. Christmas elves rounded up children after the tree lighting, to play an active role, riding the train to find the stranded Santa and Mrs. Claus, whose sleigh had gotten stuck. While warming up in the train station, there was elf karaoke, storytelling, and a delectable buffet of amazing foods and cookies, all donated by businesses and local residents for the overflowing crowd. Then the packed train took off with excited children, parents, and grandparents to rescue Santa.

Ludmila and Frank Cofone from Indian Lake rode the train with their 8-month-old daughter, Nicole. They took lots of pictures to relive the adventure with her when sheÕ s old enough. Mason Englert, a 6-year-old North Creek resident, said he is asking Santa for: Ò A Lego flatbed and dirt bike,Ó and when asked what his favorite part of the train ride was, he said, Ò finding Santa and Mrs. Claus.Ó And that was certainly true for the other riders, proved by the escalating noise level and their excited focus, as the crowd first spotted Santa and Mrs. Claus outside the train, to their boarding the train and visiting with each rider on the way back to town.

One elf, Luisa Sherman, Director of Marketing at SNCRR, dressed in authentic elf fashion. Ò I could do this every night,Ó Sherman said.

Arnheiter said sheÕ d like to thank the Town of Johnsburg, North Creek Rotary and Community Bank for their donations. Ò We are especially grateful for the 50 FOR 250 Sponsors, who purchased vouchers (created and delivered into back packs by Lisa Solomon and Rachael Shafer) to give the parents information about the Candy Cane Train,Ó Arnheiter said.

The following businesses, Arnheiter said, helped make the event possible: Chuck Barton of BartonÕ s supported Indian Lake students; Creative Stage Lighting (George and Lilly Studnicky) adopted Minerva students; Mark and Brenda Carpenter of Upstate Insurance adopted North Warren students; Paul Buckman of Buckman Family Fuels gave vouchers to North Warren Students; and David and Carol Crikelair and their partners Tom and Kathy Doughty of Front street Mountain Development at Ski Bowl Village, donated vouchers for Johnsburg Central School students to take Ò this new adventure train ride.Ó Arnheiter also thanked the live radio broadcast from 95.5 Regional Radio from Glens Falls, which helped to advertise the weekend events and inspired an extra train trip than the three scheduled on Saturday to accommodate all children.

The sponsorship of the radio marketing was made possible

by Basil and Wicks, Hudson River Trading Co., the Town of Johnsburg and the Business Alliance Craft Fair which was held at the Copperfield Inn. Saturday morning there was a large turnout for the holiday parade, organized by Pat Connor and Theresa Lane. This year it was bigger and better, with individuals, businesses, fire departments, and non-profits all participating to make this parade so successful. Ron Vanselow wore his Santa hat and rode with Wayne Bukovinsky on the North Country Hardship float.

Afterward, the crowd moved into the ballroom at the Copperfield Inn to see and support local vendors by buying their handmade crafts, art, jewelry, and food.

Last, but not least, the North Country Singers performed twice in Ò A Holiday CelebrationÓ with the Holiday ChildrenÕ s Choir, The JCS Jazz Band, dancers, and Bernadette Speach and Jeffrey Schanzer at Tannery Pond Community Center, under the baton of Musical Director Conti. Ò It was a delightful event. The children were adorable and remind us what the holidays and community is all about,Ó Deb Cunningham said.

Gallagher, High Peaks Hospice team up

Martha believes that such a unique instrument, made from unused, abandoned, homeless, Ò harplessÓ pieces of wood, must surely have a special calling in the world. Before this harp even arrived at MarthaÕ s door, it had claimed its purpose in life; to help and heal through music. Martha admits that she has never related to her harps in human terms, as in having a gender or a name. But The Orphan Harp was different right from the very start and she had claimed her own name - her name is Hope.
