North Creek church takes worship into nature Adirondack Church Without Walls an alternative to traditional church By Christopher South
chris@suncommunitynews.com
NORTH CREEK Ñ Rev. Lucy Harris said she was attending an El Salvador church that had only one wall when she became aware that everything outside was coming inside: dogs, birds and the sounds of the city.
Ò I thought, Ô This is what the kingdom is like. People are a part whether they know it or not,Õ Ó Harris said. She liked the idea of a church service being a part of the community, but rather than invite the community in, she decided to stake the church out into the community, and the concept of the Adirondack Church Without Walls (ADK ChurchWoW) was born. Part of a Ò 1,001 New Worshipping CommunitiesÓ initiative of the Presbyterian Church (USA), Harris said the ADK ChurchWoW is an alternative to the tra-
ditional church, which has worshippers being taught, but otherwise uninvolved. Ò People find they can take a part in leading the service. For some, the more traditional church seems very head-trippy, over your head, dry, not engaging. We are trying to creative worship experiences where everyone there feels engaged in what is going on,Ó Harris said. Harris said there are other people who might feel disengaged, if not disinvited by a traditional church. An example is a family with a son who has autism. She said if their son feels stressed by the
group and vocalizes it, they can move 10 or 15 feet away and give him space. She said the ADK ChurchWoW has had visitors with psycho or social anxieties, or people with cognitive limitations. Ò I have found a lot of people who have a background where, in their experience with church, they had a sense where the church is very exclusive, whether about sexual orientation, what you believeÉ Ó Harris said. Ò I have met some people who are not sure they want to sign-on to a certain doctrine.Ó >> See CHURCH | pg. 8
LandÊ bankÊ constitutionalÊ amendmentÊ headsÊ toÊ voters
If approved, Health and Safety Land Account would create a 250-acre land bank in the Adk’s By Pete DeMola
pete@suncommunitynews.com
NEWCOMB Ñ Voters in November will decide if the state should create a land bank to aid municipalities with routine infrastructure and communications projects on state land. The state Assembly approved the legislation last week, and the question will now appear on the ballot as a referendum in November. The Health and Safety Land Account would create a 250-acre land bank in the Adirondacks and Catskills. Localities could utilize the bank to conduct public infrastructure projects on state Forest Preserve without having to amend the constitution each time, a lengthy process. >> See LAND BANK | pg. 8

Local towns engage in YMCA fundraising race Horicon pledge literally one-ups Chestertown in donation arms race By Christopher South
chris@suncommunitynews.com
CHESTERTOWN Ñ Chestertown has authorized a $3,500 gift to the Family YMCA of the Glens Falls Area as part of a $120,000 fundraising effort. Town Supervisor Craig Leggett said while there was a motion made for a $5,000 donation to the YMCA, he was only able to find $3,500 in the budget. Two days later, at its June 15 meeting, the Horicon Town Board authorized a $5,001 donation to the YMCA in an apparent attempt to one-up its neighbor. Horicon Supervisor Matt Simpson laughed when asked about the contribution, saying he had spoken to
Leggett earlier about the donation amount. When Horicon Councilman Robert Olson made the motion for the resolution authorizing the donation, he included the amount of $5,001 Ñ one dollar more than the Town of Chester planned to donate. Brian Bearor, chief executive officer of the Family YMCA of the Glens Falls Area, told the Chester Town Board two families donated a combined $50,000 as a matching grant. The YMCA needs to raise $50,000 through donations to receive the match. When contacted on Tuesday, he said the Himoff Family, which donated the former Susie Q Restaurant building to the YMCA, and the StewartÕ s/Dake Family had each offered up to $25,000 if the YMCA could raise matching amounts from the community. Ò ItÕ s part of our overall goal of raising $120,000,Ó Bearor said. The remaining $20,000 would come in the form of grants. Two thermometer-shaped signs, one at the Adirondack Center and one at the Glens Falls National Bank in Chestertown, would indicate the progress they are making in the campaign. Bearor said the YMCA offers a literacy program for kids going into first and second grades. He said they have begun the Y Achievers 6 to 8th graders, held after school during school year. The center is also offering a STEAM program Ñ science, technology engineering, arts and mathematics Ñ in collaboration with the schools. The center holds a once-a-month teen night during the school year, and will sponsor Ò Thursday Night Live.Ó
There are also senior programs, including the Lunch and Learn speaker program, and the center is beginning a movie discussion night. Bearor said the center is looking at instituting a senior wellness program to include group exercise. Youth programming is mostly free, and drop-in programs, such as a movie night, are normally $5. The YMCA Adirondack Center is located at 148 Tannery Pond Rd., Brant Lake. For more information, call 494-4422 or visit glensfallsymca.org/adkcenter.

Survey reveals Five Towns largely unknown to travelers Region remains a mystery despite Essex Chain, Boreas publicity By Pete DeMola
pete@suncommunitynews.com
NORTH HUDSON Ñ The results are in for an travel study of the communities most closely linked to Boreas Ponds. The main takeaway: The Upper Hudson Recreation Hub has a heavy lift when it bridging the awareness gap between more well-known attractions like Old Forge, Lake Placid and Lake George. Ò (The results) reinforce some of the traditional things weÕ ve already been talking about,Ó said Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism CEO James McKenna. ROOST conducted the survey to determine traveler perception, behavior and demands related to the central Adirondack towns of Minerva, North Hudson, Newcomb, Indian Lake and Long Lake. The 748 respondents were split into three segments: Adirondack Park residents who have visited one of the Five Towns, visitors who have not, and non-residents. Indian Lake and Long Lake led the pack among residents and travelers who said they planned on visiting within the next two years. Elsewhere, favorites like Old Forge, Inlet, Lake Placid, Saranac Lake and Lake George remained favorites. Old Forge, Lake Placid, Lake George and Whiteface-Wilmington had the smallest awareness gap between visitors and prospective guests, demonstrating their ongoing star wattage. Newcomb and North Hudson, despite making headlines over Boreas Ponds
and the proposed Gateway to the Adirondacks, lagged behind when it comes to prospective trips from those who have not yet visited. Morehouse, Malone and Lake ClearPaul SmithÕ s all ranked at the bottom of the pack. The numbers were comparable when it comes to if respondents would recommend the destinations to a friend as a vacation destination. The study also attempted to glean what recreational activities came to mind at which locations. Canoeing, kayaking and hiking remained the most popular activities among all. Lake George is known for dining and boating, while hunting, hiking and snowmobiling were high on the list for the Five Towns. But when pinpointing awareness of activities in the Five Towns, a gulf emerged:
Knowledge of most activities clocked in at under 15 percent. The outlier was whitewater rafting, where awareness doubled Ñ likely due to the Adirondack Challenge that sees the governor and state officials visiting Indian Lake each summer. All groups said they preferred traditional lodging like motels and hotels over alternatives, including beds and breakfasts, AirBnB and vacation rentals. As the Upper Hudson Recreation Hub gains momentum, ROOST aims to assemble a marketing program that imparts the importance of destination planning. Ò (The survey) helps everyone understands what the assets are, and thatÕ s the part we think is valuable,Ó McKenna said. North Hudson Supervisor Ron Moore said he expects the Gateway project will significantly raise the regionÕ s profile.
The bump will hopefully drive visitors to lesser-known areas of the Adirondack Park beyond the congested Route 73 corridor, he said. Ò Hopefully that will help educate people that there other things they can do,Ó he said. Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Farber, who represents Morehouse, acknowledged the awareness gap. Ò I think weÕ ve started to develop some of the building blocks in developing the recreational aspect,Ó Farber said. Ò This marketing strategy is how do you weave together the Five Towns as sort of a minidestination?Ó A good plan, he said, will incorporate all recreational aspects. Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston said he looked forward to the Adirondack Park Agency classifying Boreas Ponds, a process that has dragged into summer following last winterÕ s public hearing process. Ò You can preserve the environment, but also recreate on it Ñ thatÕ s what it should be about,Ó Preston said. The survey was distributed to participants of ROOSTÕ s annual leisure travel information study, and those who indicated that they had been to one of the Five Towns. The Long Lake Parks, Recreation & Tourism office and Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce also distributed the survey to their email lists.A new survey from the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism attempted to discern travel patterns and perceptions of the Five Towns, including Indian Lake, the site of Gov. Andrew CuomoÕ s Adirondack Challenge, pictured here in 2015. ABOVE: file photo

WalkbackÊ of Ê federalÊ overtimeÊ regulationsÊ welcome
A
s the White House lurches from crisis to crisis, and Congress finds they cannot pass legislation despite holding a one-party majority, we can be forgiven for thinking that Washington, D.C. is frozen in a state of inaction and paralysis. But we did take notice of one subtle policy shift that flew under the radar last week: The Department of Labor is quietly backing away from some of the most troublesome business regulations imposed under the Obama administration Ñ including the pending new overtime rule. The new regulations double the salary threshold for which employees are entitled to time-and-a-half pay for working overtime. While a federal judge blocked the Labor Department from enforcing the regulation last November, employers had already started complying with the rule. This put small businesses in a pickle: Either move those who fill management roles up to make them immune from the regulations, or cobble together an hourly pay structure. Sounds good in theory. But small businesses cannot always absorb the cost of doubling that salary threshold, which now sits at $47,476 annually, a number that would be automatically updated every three years. The regulations, contrary to their intended purpose, have had the effect of severely kneecapping creative sectors like the media industry where long hours come with the territory, and grit and ambition is required to advance burgeoning careers. What happened with the overtime rule, as Politico reported, is technical: While the Labor Department defended its authority to set a salary threshold in determining who qualifies for overtime, the agency did not actually defend the rule itself. Ò In fact, it gave a very strong indication this week that it doesnÕ t support the rule,Ó Politico reported. The Department also sent a request for comments about the overtime rule to the White House for review, the first step towards reform. The agency will also seek public comment on a new salary threshold. This is welcome news not only for our industry, but for all small businesses in the North Country who are groaning under the weight of crippling state and federal regulations. As we have opined before, the narrative of worker exploitation posed by advocates of the policy is wrong and misleading. Small businesses Ñ especially those in the rural U.S. Ñ simply cannot shoulder these increases without incurring significant financial or operational blowbacks. Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta earlier this month acknowledged the strains, admitting while the cost of living is rising, the regulations could also Ò create a stressÓ on businesses, according to the Washington Post. WeÕ d also like to add that comparing minimum wage restaurant jobs to beat reporters is apples and oranges, where the hourly workload is wildly divergent depending on the task, as well as countless other variables. But this much is clear: If this policy is upheld, we envision career pathways becoming cut
off, throttling the ambition and creativity of ambitious young professionals. There are tangible effects, too, because despite the rule, life continues in all of its unpredictable glory, and the news keeps happening and doesnÕ t take into account when the person chronicling it reaches their allotted 40 hours. The result, unfortunately, is a lose-lose scenario because work ultimately gets left undone. And the community suffers, as well, when news holes emerge due the staffing shortages. Of course, this isnÕ t all about us Ñ The same goes for the political sphere and fashion industry, where internships are par for the course for young graduates. The system is a mess, and weÕ ll continue to monitor how this unfolds. President Donald Trump had said during the 2016 campaign that he hoped small businesses would be exempted. Now we hope Ñ like the rest of the country Ñ that his less-glamorous policy initiatives do not get derailed by further unwelcome distractions.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
RebuttingÊ theÊ pro-ParisÊ Ê plaidoyer Our SunÕ s spell-check shrank CO-2 100-fold and Mr. PaganoÕ s pouncing highlit how tiny a trace gas it is. Even he concedes our furnace-in-the-sky hugely outheats all of us, though his uncited source lops 55% off that disparity (mine: http://www.schulphysik.de/ klima/klima2003/groessen.html). Relevant it is: Without we wouldnÕ t be here to spar! Though embarrassingly absurd, the outgone PrezÕ s EPA did demonize growth-sustaining CO-2 as Ò pollutionÓ to push The ManÕ s Agenda (google & see). The Ò greenhouseÓ analogy, moreover, is junk, though typical of whatÕ s peddled as Ò scienceÓ (http://hockeyschtick.blogspot.com/2013/08/why-atmosphere-isnot-greenhouse.html). As for solar panels, my own are far-from-Ó alternativeÓ back-ups vs. blackouts (https://wattsupwiththat. com/2014/09/06/analysis-solar-wind-power-costsare-huge-compared-to-natural-gas-fired-generation/). My windpower APA permit IÕ ll wait to use for Vertical
Axis Wind Turbines (pls google), not waste on yesteryear windmills. 27 years inside the UN, including IPCC, cured me of the naivetŽ evident in quoting polls & NASA. Surely Mr. Pagano, bowing to Washington Post fact-checks, wonÕ t diss the New York Times indictment of NASA-run National Weather Service phantom records (http:// www.nytimes.com/1991/08/18/us/in-tucson-it-snot-the-heat-it-s-the-thermometers.html). Moreover, should you & I buy NASA pontifications, even though their Ames Research Center, for instance, tries to cook up headlines by sticking a thermometer at Badwater (Death Valley) into a nature-made oven (pix & specs at http://www.john-daly.com/stations/badwater.htm)? Adirondack Regional Airport records & their keepers deserve respect, not dissing from Mr. Pagano. ThereÕ s nothing Ò anecdotalÓ about them or my 116+ years of annals from Indian Lake Dam. It should make Mr. Pagano & all of us stop and think that at the Dam Ð even now undistorted by the self-evident Urban Heat Island Effect megatons of asphalt, tall buildings, people, cars & heat ducts have Ð the 103F peak heat hit in1911, not the 1990Õ s, let alone 2000-anything. Ditto at Death ValleyÕ s credible Furnace Creek station: 134F in 1913!
Canon memorial service draws hundreds Late Newcomb supervisor eulogized as faithful public servant By Pete DeMola
pete@suncommunitynews.com
NEWCOMB Ñ Farewell, Mr. Adirondack. George Canon, the Newcomb supervisor who rose from abject poverty to take a leading role in shaping policy in the Adirondack Park, was laid to rest on Saturday. Hundreds braved a torrential downpour and turned out for the memorial service at Newcomb Central for Canon, who died on June 18 at 78. The receiving line snaked around the auditorium, and an overflow room accommodated mourners in the gymnasium. State lawmakers Dan Stec and Betty Little joined dozens of state and local officials, as well as representatives from environmental groups, to pay tribute to the late politician. Ò I used to call him King Midas,Ó said Michael Shaughnessy, a childhood friend. Ò Everything he touched turned to gold.Ó Shaughnessy, 77, recalled a happy-go-lucky kid who excelled at sports and whose ambition was evident from an early age. Ò If something needed to be done, George did it,Ó he said. Lowell Stringer said Canon was like a brother to him and recalled outdoor adventures with his pal. The duo fished every pond in Newcomb, and embarked on a salmon expedition to Alaska exactly one year ago to the day. Ò HeÕ s the best friend a guy could have,Ó Stringer said. Ò He was unreal, and he helped a lot of people out.Ó As mourners greeted CanonÕ s survivors, a slideshow scrolled through his life, countless photos of the diminutive lawmaker over the years Ñ always with a smile, and often with a trademark cocktail. Newcomb Central Superintendent Clark Ò SkipÓ Hults, who is also an ordained minister, eulogized Canon as a friend, mentor, boss and family man. The commonality, he said, was his dedication to public service. Ò To all of us, he will forever be the heart of Newcomb and of the Adirondacks,Ó Hults said. Canon rose from humble beginnings and graduated from Newcomb Central 60 years ago this week as class valedictorian. After attending Albany Business College, he returned to Newcomb to work at National Lead Company. He entered politics after the mine closed, where he ascended to the leadership of numerous organizations, including the Adirondack Association of Towns and Villages and the Association of Towns.
Canon was also a member of the Adirondack Local Government Review Board and served as chairman of the Essex County Board of Supervisors. While doing so, he facilitated projects in his community Ñ the preservation of Camp Santanoni and the creation of the High Peaks Golf Club were chief highlights Ñ while ensuring the rights of year-round residents of the Adirondack Park were safeguarded. Ò As George would say, Ô Not bad for a guy who grew up with dirt floors in a tar paper shack,Õ Ó Hults said. Hults cited the Ò Parable of the TalentsÓ in which a master put workers in charge of his goods when he went away on a trip. Upon his return, the stewards who made wise investments were rewarded. Ò Well done, good and faithful servant,Ó Hults said. Canon is already likely at work in the afterlife, he said. Ò I believe he has his marching orders,Ó Hults said, Ò and heÕ s going to be telling others to do the marching.Ó Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Basil Seggos attended on behalf of the governorÕ s office, and read a statement from Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who said Canon Ò embodied public service for generationsÓ and was someone he was Ò proud to call a friend.Ó More than 200 people attended the ceremony, delivered before a picture of Canon in his youth, dashingly handsome and grinning in a flannel shirt. The slideshow was later set to music, including Louis ArmstrongÕ s Ò What a Wonderful World.Ó Local folk singer Dan Berggren also performed. Ò ThereÕ s a lesson IÕ m learning from the towering pines,Ó he sang. Torrential downpours cast a pall over the Adirondacks all morning, putting the kibosh on plans to hold a Ò dry toastÓ at St. ThereseÕ s Cemetery. Ò George would not want ladies up to their knees in mud,Ó said Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston. But, he admitted, it was Ò a dry toast which George probably wouldnÕ t want be a part of.Ó Ò HereÕ s to the legend of the Adirondacks,Ó Preston said. Ò You will never be forgotten, my friend.Ó Ò Hear hear,Ó the room said. By then, the rain had stopped and everyone spilled out into the sunlight.

cOMMENTARy
Colin Read
Mayor of Plattsburgh,
From the Mayor
Millenials and Modern Cities merica has experienced many transformations. Rural areas go along for the ride. Our first nations were native Americans who came over a land bridge from Siberia perhaps 20 millennia ago. They soon populated every corner of North and South America. They lived in familial villages, including our region. European settlers landed in colonies that were formed around peoples who shared a common nation rather than a common family. WeÕ d probably call them urban. But, as more settlers arrived, they fanned out across our nation to homestead and farm. Our nation become rural. Then, with the U.S. version of the industrial revolution, our grand cities such as New York, Buffalo, Detroit, and Chicago thrived. Residents are drawn to these cities because of what they can uniquely offer. Our cities are a place that can celebrate the arts and music, culture and entertainment, food and drink, education, healthcare, shopping, parks, quaint streets, and industry. Mostly, though, cities attract us to each other, and encourage us to establish networks of like-minded people. A concentrated population then offers something for everybody, and the diversity that makes things interesting. Our elderly citizens recall the days when Plattsburgh had streetcars and ferries. Downtown was an exciting place that remained walkable, and offered a wide range of goods and services so our residents could be well-fed, well-clothed, and well pampered. In those days, residents did not need cars. People promenaded around town on lazy summer afternoons, and enjoyed watching and being watched, shopping and selling their wares. Our active living retired citizens still want this sense of community and buzz of activity. They donÕ t want to worry about a car or parking, and they donÕ t want yards to mow. They do want a lively and walkable community. They also enjoy millennials, with whom they share much. Both prefer not to have a car, and enjoy urban apartment dwelling. They like lazy afternoons sitting outdoors at local restaurants or coffee houses. They want a place to walk their dog, and stroll with children. They coexist nicely in our downtown cores. Both these groups, active living seniors and millennials, form the basis of modern urbanism. And both will hopefully act as the anchors for revitalized downtowns. There was an old-school urbanism that theorized we just need to build something big and people will come. Burlington developed a center of mass to do just that almost half a century ago. An urban downtown mall helped anchor their Church Street. That is a risky proposition nowadays. Most urban areas are finding it almost impossible to attract a national caliber anchor store. Instead, vibrant urban areas offer a diversity of unique boutiques, lots of pedestrian-friendly green spaces, bright and modern second and third floor apartments, and plenty of activities within walking distance. Developers will do their part in our modern urban utopias if we do ours. These investors are leery of the failed Ò build something and hope people will comeÓ mantra. Instead, they want to have civic leaders help make for an interesting and attractive downtown for their target populations, which are increasingly these same millennials and active living seniors. We do our part by constructing pedestrian friendly downtowns, with access to the lake and river, an abounding history, and natural beauty. In Plattsburgh, we simply accentuate and capitalize on our assets. Plattsburgh has an ace-in-the-hole for this reinvention. The state has seen the wisdom to invest $10 million in our downtown revitalization. Plattsburgh will soon roll out our redefinition of its downtown. WeÕ ll see a more vibrant, liveable, and proudful downtown that has an air of excitement and acts as a magnet for millennials and urbanites of all ages. Then, in a complete inversion of Ò build it and they will come,Ó developers will follow and invest in downtown housing and light commercial space. Residents will flock to these new spaces not because they want to live in such apartments or condominiums, but because they want to be part of a vibrant downtown. This is the new urbanism and a vision for downtown. And it is the pressing reason why we should also get our fiscal ship righted. Upon such a firm foundation and bright vision will come a sustainable city. readc@cityofplattsburgh.ny,gov

A LITTLE NAME DROPPING Many years ago, well known historian and eccentric Howard Mason used to write a popular newspaper column titled Ò Backward Glances,Ó where he used to reminisce about long-dead people he knew who once lived in the Glens Falls, Cleverdale, Pattens Mills, area. I was very pleased when Glens Falls Historian Wayne Wright gifted me with a copy of HowardÕ s book back in 2015. Howard C. Mason, 87, died July 19, 1969. I often think of Howard when I find myself thinking of people, mostly dead and gone, some I knew personally and some I didnÕ t, who once lived in Warrensburg and the surrounding area. Last week, June 24, I wrote about Frank LaRocque, a young man who worked in the Warrensburgh Woolen Mill back in 1917. I wondered if Frank was related to Jerry LaRocque who once ran the Fairyland Movie Theatre across the street from todayÕ s history museum. The same day the newspaper came out, I read the new copy of the Warrensburgh Historical Quarterly in which my good friend, Rita Ferraro wrote a fine article about Joe Aiken who also worked in the Woolen Mill at the same time as Frank did and later quit his job to join the army during World War I. JoeÕ s son, Lester Aiken, married Kitty Langworthy and Lester died in 1948 in an automobile accident two weeks after the wedding. This was nine years before I arrived in Warrensburg, but I remember people still talking about that awful tragedy. Kitty later married my good friend, Austin Perry and they ran a prosperous appliance store in todayÕ s liquor store building, owned today by Rick and Kathy Galusha. Austin and Kitty were also known for owning beautiful horses at their ranch, located at the old Judd house, which was built prior to 1789, situated above the Judd Bridge, at the south end of town. Austin, a very handsome and nice man, was later a successful member of the Warrensburg Town Board before he died several years ago. One thought leads to another memory and life goes on in Warrensburg. I like to get on the telephone with my old friend, Arthur Moffitt and we can really hash out some good stories about the good old days. Ò The saying is that Ò the past is a bucket of ashes,Ó but I donÕ t believe it for a minute.

It is expected that the action will be brought to trial in Supreme Court in May, 1917 in Lake George. (Update: Despite the fight to prevent a tuberculosis hospital from being built there, one was constructed and it eventually became known as Westmount Sanatorium. It officially closed on Sept. 30, 1957 as a tuberculosis hospital.

Black Bear, a Pottersville landmark, is for sale Restaurant has been in the Stetson family for 67 years By Christopher South
chris@suncommunitynews.com
POTTERSVILLE Ñ Anyone who has passed by the intersection of State Route 9 and Valley Farm Road has undoubtedly stopped a time or two at the Black Bear Restaurant and Bar, and probably spent more time there. Ò Just about everyone in the North Country has worked here,Ó said owner Robert Ò ButchÓ Stetson, who runs the landmark business along with wife Patti. StetsonÕ s parents, Frank and Delva Stetson, bought the restaurant in 19491950. The building goes back to the 1920s when was Ò a walkup-window place with gas pumps,Ó Patti said. When the business was started, there was no bar. Stetson, who has lived in Pottersville nearly all his life, said at one time the Black Bear was a Greyhound Bus stop, and was a refueling station for the buses. Ò The bar actually started (in the 1950s) as a waiting station,Ó Patti said. Stetson has always worked in the Black Bear, even helping to cook breakfast before he went to school. Growing up in, and finally owning the business, Stetson said he has done everything in the restaurant, from peeling potatoes and tending bar to performing the maintenance. The Black Bear, Patti said, is known for its daily-roasted turkey. Ò We have turkey dinners, hot turkey sandwiches, club sandwichesÉ and everyone knows itÕ s the real deal,Ó Patti said. The Black Bear is also known for its chicken wings in popular flavors/temperatures: mild, medium, hot, garlic-parmesan and barbecue. Patti credited Ò the girlsÓ who work there with coming up with a new specialty item Ð Ò Bear DroppingsÓ Ð which are tater tots, with bacon, cheese and ranch dressing. Stetson purchased the business from his mother in 1970. He said the 1970s and 1980s were the heyday for the Black Bear, and many Native American steelworkers passed through Pottersville on their way to work on skyscrapers and bridges in New York City. Entertainment has been a part of the Black Bear for a long time. Ò We used to have bands come up from the Glens Falls area,Ó Stetson said, Ò but we did away with the live music. It ran its course, and we couldnÕ t keep the crowd past midnight.Ó The Black Bear still hosts karaoke on Friday nights, which it has done for 20 years. Stetson said over the years, the biggest hit to their business came when the state was trying to figure out what the legal drinking age should be; raising it to 19 before setting it at 21. He said today there are just not as many people passing through Pottersville as before, but that is not the reason the Black Bear Restaurant and Bar is for sale. The Stetsons said after the 67 years the family has owned the business itÕ s time to retire. The Stetsons said they would like to be able to come into the Black Bear and simply relax. As it is now, they canÕ t walk in the door and just enjoy a drink at the bar with friends without looking at or hearing about what needs to be done. The Stetsons didnÕ t say if Ò the girlsÓ come with the business. Patti said their core employees are Ò the greatest,Ó with many of them staying 10 years or longer. Their manager, Cissy, is a second generation employee who started working at the Black Bear when she was 14. Her mother, Rose, worked there since she was 16, and a cook, Fran, retired from the Black Bear after 25 years. The Black Bar Restaurant and Bar is located in Pottersville on Route 9 near Exit 26 on the Northway. For more information call (518) 494-9972. ABOVE: Butch and Patti Stetson are shown outside their Black Bear Restaurant and Bar in Pottersville. The business has been operating in Pottersville for over 67 years.

Harris said she talks to people who have serious questions and doubts, and she believes these people can teach her the most. Ò In attempting to answer their questions, it is helping me to understand what I believe,Ó she said. Harris said the Ò one-sided feeling of traditional churchesÓ is off-putting, for some, but especially for millennials. She said many in their 20s and 30s are put off by notions from what you have to wear to church, to how services go, or issues church has supported or not supported. Harris said she does a reading from the Bible, then she follows it with a reading from another sources, whether it be poetry from Khalil Gibran or an essay from Chief Joseph on caring for the land. She said she will reflect on those readings for a minute and a half to two
minutes and encourage people to share thoughts or questions. Ò ItÕ s more organic and less of me standing up front leading a congregation. ItÕ s more of a community experience,Ó Harris said. The readings and sharing is followed by corporate prayer. Harris said she tries to incorporate multisensory stimulus for those with different learning styles, sometimes using drums, blowing bubbles to represent prayers. She said being surrounded by wind, the sun, birds and animals adds to the sensory element. ADK ChurchWoW meets once per month, and is next meeting on July 9 at 5 p.m., at the Ski Bowl in North Creek. The theme will be Ò A Celebration of Freedom.Ó RIGHT: The Rev.

LAND BANK << Continued from | p. 1
Eligible projects include environmental infrastructure, public utility lines, highway and bridge improvements and municipal water projects. The amendment would also aid the construction of bike paths between Adirondack communities. If approved, localities will be able swap out state-owned land for their help in purchasing land elsewhere Ñ not necessarily in the same community. State Sen. Betty Little (R-Queensbury) said she canÕ t think of any senators who have sponsored as many amendments as she has. Ò This amendment and the enabling legislation has literally been years in the making and is the result of seemingly countless meetings and lengthy discussions,Ó said Little, who thanked her colleagues, including state Assemblymen Dan Stec, Billy Jones and Assembly Environmental Conservation Chairman Steve Englebright. Stec called the proposed amendment Ò a great victory for Adirondack and Catskill communities.Ó Local officials said they donÕ t have any projects in the hopper, but itÕ s nice to know the opportunity will be there in the future. Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Farber cited past problems when National Grid attempted to lay poles along a country road on the north side of Piseco Lake. The poles could be placed, but not anchored. In this era of changing weather patterns, culvert pipes may need to replaced with larger units to allow for greater water volumes. Ò WeÕ re planning for 500-year floods versus 100-year floods,Ó Farber said. Ò Best practices really dictates a larger pipe. This will allow us to address those kinds of issues.Ó Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston called the proposal, which has been passed both houses of the state legislature twice in different legislative sessions, a Ò common senseÓ tool. Ò I donÕ t see any downsides at all,Ó Preston said.
North Hudson Supervisor Ron Moore said the land bank will help all communities in the Adirondack Park. Ò We donÕ t have an issue right now, but there could be problems at any time,Ó Moore said. Ò It takes two years to do that work.Ó Tupper Lake in 2009 required a constitutional amendment to approve utility lines. The proposed amendment is also supported by environmental groups. Ò We are pleased to have been part the team of stakeholders who helped reach this agreement,Ó said Adirondack Council Executive Director William C. Janeway. Ò If approved by the voters in November, this will foster a more vibrant local economy while respecting the integrity and legacy of Ô forever wildÕ land protections.Ó Protect the Adirondacks said expansion of broadband fiber will help provide educational and economic development opportunities to remote areas. Stakeholders agreed the second legislative approval of the resolution would be accompanied by Ò enabling legislation,Ó or the process of how the amendment would be carried out and reviewed by the state Department of Environmental Conservation. Ò Enabling legislation has sometimes been left until after an amendment is voted upon in a statewide election,Ó Janeway said. Ò Environmental organizations, including the Adirondack Council, felt that voters would be more likely to approve the amendment if they were certain of how its various, complicated provisions would be carried out before they had to cast their ballots.Ó Peter Bauer, executive director of Protect, said the enabling legislation is important to the basic functioning and management of the Forest Preserve. Ò Some larger projects will require legislative review after the DEC review in a process similar to a municipal parklands alienation process,Ó Bauer said. The proposed amendment passed the Senate earlier this year. The statewide referendum is on Nov. 7. ABOVE: Voters this fall will vote on the creation of a proposed land bank designed to streamline infrastructure and utility projects on state Forest Preserve.

Progress has been accomplished, Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson said June 26. Meanwhile, the beach was open for swimming after intermittent closures, reeopening June 24 by the state Department of Environmental Conservation after new water quality tests conducted a day or two earlier showed levels of bacteria below the stateÕ s action thresholds. It had been closed for three days beforehand due to E. coli bacteria counts that exceeded the state standards. The effort by state agencies and local work crews along with environmental group representatives involved inspecting and testing sanitary and storm sewer pipes at the southern end of the lake, conducting smoke and dye tests, as well as operating a robotic camera and specialized powerful vacuum device in the sewer lines. Where sewers were clogged with noxious waste, they were cleaned up, he said. Ò A lot has been accomplished this week,Ó Dickinson said, noting that a lot of work was conducted along Beach Road, plus around the lakeshore properties and roads east of Million Dollar Beach, as well as down West Brook Road. Ò WeÕ ve inspected all of the townÕ s 200 storm sewer and sanitary sewer manholes,Ó he continued. Dickinson said that in conducting their work, the crews uncovered some substantial problems. Ò We opened up a manhole on Cedar Lane and the stench was disgusting,Ó he said.

‘Watering Tub’ still a matter of concern for Horicon Regional attraction has failed tests for coliform four times in five months By Christopher South
chris@suncommunitynews.com
BRANT LAKE Ñ The Town of Horicon is continuing to post a Ò Notice of Non-PotabilityÓ on the townÕ s website, warning residents and visitors the state Department of Health is strongly recommending people not drink water from the Ò Watering Tub.Ó Town Supervisor Matt Simpson said the Watering Tub, a spring-fed water source in Brant Lake, has failed tests for coliform four times in five months. The stateÕ s recommendation is a disappointment to thousands of people who come to the spring, he said. Simpson said he has even had people call from Albany to see if the spring was open before making the trip. Ò WeÕ ve sanitized everything, and we get a clean test and the next month it fails,Ó Simpson said.
Although the water fails for coliform, Simpson said, he has been told the coliform isnÕ t the issue, but that coliform takes the same pathway as E.coli, which has been cause for closing Million Dollar Beach in Lake George several times this spring. Officials have blamed the rain and storm water runoff for closing the lake. Simpson said the area has received 40 percent more rain this year than last. Ò WeÕ ve had to close the spring, and after four times I canÕ t safely protect the public,Ó Simpson said. Keeping surface water out of the spring is not an easy fix. Ò The board has authorized me to talk to our town engineer and we are going to come up with a plan for what we can do, for what we are up against,Ó Simpson said. Simpson said he believes the entire structure at the Tub, specifically a concrete block wall with a roof that surrounds the spring, needs to be rebuilt. But the town has a lot of other priorities now, and he is hoping people will get over the shock of not having the water before the town attempts to correct the
situation. Ò I am confident we are going to get this thing solved, but it will take time to ensure itÕ s done right,Ó Simpson said. In other business, the Town Board authorized the hiring of lifeguards for the beaches on Mill Pond and in Adirondack. Hiring lifeguards has not been easy. Ò WeÕ ve had an issue trying to find lifeguards for the town, but we started working with Chester and have our programs working in concert,Ó Simpson said. The lifeguard program supervisor is a Chester employee. Ò We did this last year, the first year we did it, and it worked out well,Ó Simpson said. The supervisor said the program has started offering swimming lessons, and will continue this year. The board authorized the town to pay the lifeguards at $13.40 per hour, but as of Tuesday, Simpson did not know how many guards would be on staff.
Arthur Buezo to rock the rafters at Nettle Meadow WARRENSBURG Ñ Nettle Meadow Farm will again host the Ò Cheese JamÓ concert series, the retired-animal sanctuaryÕ s summer fundraiser. On July 14, the series will feature Arthur Buezo, known since 2011 for his vocals and guitar playing with The Blind Owl Band from Saranac Lake. At Nettle Meadow, Buezo will offer a solo performance, showcasing his gritty Americana sound. Opening for Buezo will be Rochester singer-songwriter Danny Mills, whose music tends to folk and bluegrass with outlaw country influence. Locally sourced beer and plates of Nettle MeadowÕ s cheeses will be available. Admission is $10 and all proceeds support the Kemp Sanctuary. For most of its early years, the century-old barn at Nettle Meadow Farm housed prize livestock, and the massive loft would have been piled to the rafters with hay cut from the farm. Today, the horse stalls are home to some of the 100-plus rescued and retired animals of the farmÕ s Kemp Sanctuary, a non-profit corporation formed by farm owners Sheila Flanagan and Lorraine Lambiase. These days the loft serves as a rustic venue for events, including Ò Cheese Jam.Ó Visit kempsanctuaryatnettlemeadow.org for more information.

Trolley service returns By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
WARRENSBURG Ñ The chief form of public transportation for the Queen Village in the early 1900s is returning to Warrensburg this summer. The trolley service that now runs in the summer between Glens Falls and Lake George now extends to Warrensburg six days per week. Greater Glens Falls Transit will be routing three trolley buses per day, Mondays through Saturdays, from Lake George to Warrensburg. They leave Beach Road in
www.suncommunitynews.com
the village at 9:15 a.m., 2:15 p.m. and 5:45 p.m. headed to Warrensburg, arriving there about 20 minutes afterwards. The trolley stop in Lake George is located beside the Steel Pier. In Warrensburg, the stop is located on Richards Avenue beside the Warrensburg Health Center on Main Street. Trolleys are to leave Warrensburg at 9:40 a.m., 2:40 p.m. and 6:10 p.m. on those six days. The fare will be $2 one way and passengers riding between Warrensburg and Lake George can transfer to take a trolley to Queensbury and Glens Falls for 50 cents more. This service between Lake George and Queensbury/Glens Falls Ñ with trolleys running daily every 20 minutes Ñ is a popular route, particularly with foreign workers, for shopping, appointments and commuting to work. The transit agency also offers trips many times daily from Lake George to Bolton Landing.
The Sun NE/AJ • July 8, 2017 | 11
Scott Sopczyk, transportation director for Greater Glens Falls Transit, said this week that this extension of service to Warrensburg is a pilot program that runs through Labor Day. This fall, his agency will be evaluating the ridership and deciding whether to offer it again next year, he said. Several years ago, Greater Glens Falls Transit ran a trolley from Lake George to Thurman Station to meet trains headed to North Creek on the Saratoga-North Creek Railway. The service, provided in conjunction with the railway to boost tourist train ridership, was discontinued at the end of that summer for lack of passengers. In spring 2015, Warrensburg entrepreneur Ash Anand proposed a bus service several times daily from Queensbury and Glens Falls and the initiative was hailed at a town meeting. This proposal became mired in regulatory issues, and was never realized. For further details on the new trolley service, call 792-1086.

Painted Pony Championship Rodeo’s 2017 events start this weekend By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE GEORGE Ñ One of the premier rodeos in the northeastern U.S. began its 2017 season last weekend. Painted Pony Championship Rodeo has launched its annual summer schedule of three weekly rodeos and all are invited to witness the dramatic action. Evenings at Painted Pony start with a Texas-style barbecue buffet beginning at 6 p.m. and serving continues until the rodeo begins at 8 p.m. Held on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays through Labor Day, up to 100 or more cowboys and cowgirls compete at Painted Pony Rodeo each evening to earn points towards earning a berth in national championship finals in their sport. The competition features bareback and saddle bronc riding; calf and team roping; steer wrestling; cowgirlsÕ breakaway roping and barrel racing; and bull riding, the crowd favorite. The competition includes rodeo clowns
and a professional announcer. Specialty events like audience dance contests are held between the rodeo events. Covered grandstands mean the crowd can enjoy the action regardless of less-than-ideal weather. The Painted Pony is well known among rodeo stars across the nation, as its bucking stock are annually chosen for national finals competition because they are athletic and rowdy animals. Just this spring, six of their animals were chosen for the Dodge Ram Circuit Finals Rodeo in Florida. During the evening, the venueÕ s concession stand sells rodeo souvenirs, western clothing, as well as beer and hamburgers. Rodeo fans are encouraged to bring a blanket or chairs. Afterwards, people from all walks of life join competitors to share socializing and music from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. in Painted PonyÕ s Longhorn Saloon. Tickets can be purchased at a modest, discounted prices online at paintedponyrodeo.com or at the Painted PonyÕ s main
office. Children under three are free. For details, including group rates, call the Painted Pony at 696-2421. Founded in 1953 by Don Ò Wild HorseÓ Baxter, the Painted Pony Rodeo has for 64 years offered an iconic experience of American culture Ñ ItÕ s considered the oldest weekly rodeo in the nation. Shana Graham, who owns and operates Painted Pony with her husband Shawn, said Tuesday that her venue offers a rare and unique experience. Ò We say Painted Pony is where the pavement ends and the West begins,Ó she said. Ò ItÕ s where our western heritage comes alive!Ó The Painted Pony Rodeo is located at 703 Howe Road in Lake Luzerne, five miles from Lake George Village.
Grimacing as he digs in his heels to halt a charging 550-pound steer and flip it on its side, Olin Ellsworth of Warrensburg competes in a rodeo in New Jersey. Ellsworth — who won the 2016 First Frontier Steer Wrestling Championship —will be among the cowboys competing Saturday at Painted Pony Rodeo of Lake Luzerne, which is launching their 2017 season of weekly rodeos this weekend — and some crowdthrilling action is expected. To purchase discounted tickets for the Friday or Saturday rodeos, with or without a Texas-Style barbecue buffet beforehand, see paintedponyrodeo.com. Photo provided
