Saranac Lake Winter Carnival set to begin

CARNIVAL TIME

ELIZABETHTOWN

LAKE PLACID — The 31st Lake Placid Loppet, presented by High Peaks Cyclery, cross-country ski races will be held Saturday, Jan. 26, at the Olympic Sports Complex Cross Country Ski Center, in Lake Placid. The Lake Placid Loppet has established itself as one of the best events of its kind in the country. Over the past 30 years, thousands of skiers have enjoyed skiing and racing on the challenging Mt. Van Hoevenberg trails at the Olympic Sports Complex. As a member of the American Ski Marathon Series, this event attracts hundreds of skiers from across the United States and Canada. It consists of a 50 kilometer Loppet (30.1 miles) and a 25-kilometer Kort Loppet (about 15 miles). Traditionally, the race has been held in early-February, however; organizers have decided to move the event up by one week, taking into consideration the Craftsbury, Vt. race and the desire of many skiers wanting to participate in as many Loppet races as possible during the winter. The cost to participate in the Loppet or Kort Loppet, which includes an awards banquet, is $70 before Jan. 23. After that date the cost is $80. No registration available on race day. There will be classic technique and free technique race starts for both the 25K and 50K races. Bib pickup will run from 3-8 p.m. in the cross country lodge, Friday, Jan. 25, and on race day, bib pick-up runs from 7-8:30 a.m. There is no race day registration.

LPHS Winter Carnival celebrates 70 LAKE PLACID — The 70th Lake Placid High School Winter Carnival will take place from Thursday, Jan. 31 through Saturday, Feb. 2. Opening Ceremonies will be at 11:30 a.m. on Jan. 31 in the LPHS Auditorium. Coronation will be at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 2, followed by the SnoBall Hop at 8 p.m. in the LPHS gymnasium. This year, the Winter Carnival King and Queen Coronation and SnoBall Hop theme is Ancient

Egypt, hosted by the Class of 2016. The Lake Placid Central School Class of 2025 will provide entertainment for the Coronation proceedings. In 1944, Mr. Romeo Proulx, Supervising Principal of Lake Placid High School, along with Bob Connelly, Doris Keane, Isabelle Warner Farrell, Gertrude Powers and Howard Page initiated the LPHS Winter Carnival with the volunteer assistance of faculty, parents and local residents.

It was complete with sculpturing, ski races, coronation and “icicle hop.” Much has changed in 69 years, but students and faculty still gather together for intramural competitions among grades nine through 12 from pie eating to snow volleyball, the sing-thing (how well your class performs the LPHS Alma Mater) to broomball, the high school classes compete from noon on Thursday through 2:01 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 1. While the high

school competes, the middle school students will ski, skate, toboggan and have fun in the snow at the North Elba Toboggan run on Thursday afternoon, and at Whiteface Mountain or Mount Van Hoevenberg on Friday. The Olympic Regional Development Authority and the North Elba Park District donate time and help coordinate these activities for our Middle Schoolers. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

SARANAC LAKE — The Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee is feverishly making last-minute preparations for the 2013 event to be held Feb. 1-10 so the entire community can enjoy some time “Under the Sea.” Committee members meet at 6 p.m. every Wednesday in January in the large group instruction room of the Saranac Lake High School and have a variety of topics to discuss at each meeting. “Meanwhile, members of the Ice Palace Workers 101 have been dropping off equipment at Pontiac Bay so they're ready to cut ice blocks when Mother Nature is ready to give them the ice,” said Winter Carnival Committee Chairman Jeff Dickson. “We're confident that the 'Under the Sea' theme will be a huge success with 10 days full of family-oriented events and a beautiful Ice Palace on the shore of Lake Flower.” The updated schedule of events has been posted on the Winter Carnival website, www.saranaclakewintercarnival.com. •Carnival Court: High school, elementary school and college members of the Carnival Court have already been chosen and can be seen on the Winter Carnival website. The archbishop is Kristaps Meimis and chamberlain is Chris Kollmer. The prince is Eric Stender and princess is Anastasia Hull. Attendants to the king and queen are Vanessa Salamy and Nicholas Bayruns. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5
