By Pete DeMola pete@denpubs.com

NORTH HUDSON — A teenager is dead, and 55 passengers were taken to area hospitals with injuries after a tour bus veered off the shoulder on Interstate 87 and onto the median on Friday morning, July 18.

The deceased has been identified by state police as 14-year-old Chelssy Mercier of Quebec.

New York State Police Major Richard Smith III said Mercier was partially ejected from the vehicle, which then came to rest on her. After responders used jacks to lift the bus, resuscitation efforts by passerby, and state police were unsuccessful.

Two scoops of love: Cannon’s celebrate first year of Lakeway

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ă‘ Three years ago, Marybeth and Jim Cannon ventured across Lake Champlain to the Best Fourth of the North, the much-feted Independence Day bash in this former Revolutionary War fort town.

As the Vermonters strolled Montcalm Street under the fireworks, they noticed a vanilla building that needed a dose of chocolate. “We were just taking a walk before the fireworks and were thinking this would be a good place to have an ice cream,Ă“ said Marybeth.

But their hopes melted when they learned that the townÕ s main drag was bereft of ice cream.

Shortly before Independence Day last year, the pair transformed the overgrown and Ò sadlookingÓ building into Lakeway Ice Cream and Cafe, a happy placeÉ with sprinkles.

The pair prides themselves on their handdipped waffle cones wrapped in American flags, a patriotic touch that compliments the red, white and blue interior.

Marybeth hand drips them in chocolate. Ă’ Then we put on sprinkles and nuts,Ă“ she said.

She was jazzed over an imminent new product arrival, twinkle nut, a combination of candy and nuts. Ò ItÕ s fun! IÕ m excited about that.Ó The twosome lauded their 42 flavors of hard Hershey’s ice cream. Ò My husband loves ice cream, we want to make people smile,Ó said Marybeth.

Jim said frosty treats are the key to thawing

even the most frozen of hearts. Ò We get a grin from ear to ear, theyÕ re happy,Ó he said, referring to hungry customers. Ò You should see the adults when they come in here, they want to try to sample every single kind with their hands against the counter.Ó The cherry on top of the coupleÕ s matrimonial swirl is their three kinds of low-fat, no sugar-added ice cream for diabetics: turtle sundae,

vanilla and chocolate. Ò Very rich and very creamy, which makes it delicious,Ó said Marybeth. Ò Even the low fat, they add more fruit to compensate.Ó Ò People say itÕ s wonderful tasting,� said Jim. Ò Loaded with nuts,Ó added

Lakeway, located across from the town hall, also serves other fare, including black angus burgers, frozen Greek yogurt (Ă’ ItĂ• s very healthy!Ă“ ), milkshakes (Ă’ We donĂ• t add syrups!Ă“ ) and Cape Cod chicken (Ă’ ItĂ• s tremendous!Ă“ ) For a weekend treat, the pair serves breakfast sandwiches on bagels. “They’re city bagels,â€? said Jim. Crispy on the outside and soft in the center, the couple buys them half-baked and finishes baking them in Ticonderoga. Ă’ People from the city come in because they know we carry those,â€? said Jim. Ă’ We just kinda have fun with what we have,Ă“ added Marybeth. Ă’ We want people to have a very happy, definitely family-oriented experience in our ice cream shop.Ă“ Lakeview Ice Cream and Cafe: Monday-Friday from 10:30 a.m to 9 p.m and weekends from 9 a.m to 9 p.m. 133 Montcalm Street.

All hail the King

overnor Andrew Cuomo traveled to Indian Lake and North Creek last weekend for the Adirondack Challenge, the daylong extravaganza designed to promote recreation and tourism in the Adirondacks to downstate lawmakers and their urban constituents.

And of course, to the press, who were given access to some of the most powerful people in the state padding around in their flip-flops with the tacit understanding that they would beam these telegenic photo-ops directly into the living rooms of the American public, a display of Mad Menlevel public relations ingenuity.

While it may be tempting for skeptical residents to write the effort off as a highly-choreographed dog and pony show Ñ and it is easy to scoff at the pageantry that bordered on high art, the political triangulation and the prime cuts of red meat thrown to an attention-starved population Ñ the governor should be recognized for his outreach to a region that has been left in the doghouse for far too long. Ò Yeah, yeah, yeah,Ó youÕ re probably thinking. Ò Of course the woodchucks at my local newspaper are dazzled by the high-powered wattage.

How typical.”

But his record speaks for itself.

Finch Pruyn. Cuomo hammered out the compromise deal that will allow access to the 69,000 acres previously controlled by the timber company to all user groups, those arriving on both mechanized sleds and foot-powered Keds. The North CountryÕ s future has been beholden for too long to downstate environmental do-gooders who treat the region as their personal playground, caring little for the people who live here and even less about their economic futures. WeÕ re happy to have a leader who isnÕ t afraid to buck their aggressive lobbying efforts and craft a plan that ensured both sides walked away with partial victories.

Funding. Cruising from the media attention generated by his trip down the Hudson, Team Cuomo used the spotlight to announce funding for another round of projects that will expand recreational opportunities in the Central Adirondacks, including $750,000 to upgrade the Abanakee Dam on the Indian River. ThatÕ s huge.

Another quarter-million will be allotted for the development of facilities and trails that advocates hope will transform the region into a premier equestrian destination. Some might call it political pandering, others may scoff that the money was destined for the community anyway, just under a different name from a different agency at another time. We call it smart politics.

Promotion. Cuomo has spoken repeatedly on his love for the Adirondacks, a seed planted dur-

ing childhood getaways. This soft spot has blossomed into his tenure as the stateÕ s top elected official and has now bloomed into huge marketing pushes, including a $40 million advertising campaign that his office says has boosted visitations to the state by 4.2 percent last year, double the national average. North Country tourism is a $1.1 billion industry, generating $144 million in state and local taxes. We call any official who broadcasts our attractions to the wider world by simply inviting his colleagues in government for a weekend trip a visionary.

Hyuck! Like we said, we’re not starry-eyed simpletons who get gooey whenever the governor bats his eyelashes at us. Please.

We still disagree on many issues, including the Gap Elimination Adjustment that has left rural school districts in dire straits; the SAFE Act that has whipped gun owners into a fury and the property tax freeze that will force North Country officials to demonstrate shared services to give taxpayers a miniscule rebate check, pioneering governance our elected officials have been doing for years out of necessity with zero recognition from the state.

But those are all indicative of the upstate-downstate dynamic that cleaves New York, a divide that sees officials representing constituents from worldÕ s leading city serving in the same legislative body as officials presiding over the most empty and remote land tracts in the country, the cosmopolitan hum versus the blackfly buzz.

The state’s highest elected official has to rule from the center to be effective. Cuomo has done that, which means that our victories must be tempered with bitterness. He’s walked the line well and should be commended for being a masterful political operator and a sincere advocate for the North Country.

While itÕ s only a matter of time until Cuomo will aggravate us with another foolish proposal or budget deal, whether offering to bankroll college degrees for criminals or continuing to dance around delicate issues like fracking, we hope that we can settle our future differences here in the Adirondacks with another athletic challenge, one inspired by another strong New York Governor who had a friend in the North Country: WeÕ ll call it the Teddy Roosevelt Challenge, an event designed to engage lawmakers in bareknuckle boxing, endurance horseback races and singlestick, a full-combat sport using cudgels, at Tahawus, the abandoned mining village in Newcomb.

Like you said yourself, governor, the best is yet to come Ñ you ainÕ t seen nothing yet. Ñ

Five people were jailed in Ticonderoga on July 3! Yes, there was a massive jailing at Walmart to raise money for the Ticonderoga Festival Guild.

The convicts were Walt Lender, Executive Director of Lake George Association and father of five (Walt’s children came to beg for bail money to secure his release); Madeline Pelkey was next in the jail and rattled her chains to add money to the bail pot. Bill Grinnell, Ticonderoga Supervisor (pictured above), raised a generous sum of “stay in jail” money.; Hannah Black, 10, proved that people have a soft heart for youngsters who beg for mercy; Walt Thorne had support from his fellow runners and did a fantastic job pleading to the plight of a senior to benefit young children. His cry of “help an old man, help the kids,” made an impact. The folks in the jail did an outstanding job of raising money for the Ticonderoga Festival Guild’s children’s concert series.

North Hudson Supervisor Responds There have been a lot of words, both written and spoken, regarding the Town of North Hudson’s interest in acquiring the former Frontier Town properties. Some have said or implied that both the North Hudson Town Board and the Essex County Board of Supervisors have conducted their discussions on this matter in secretive sessions behind closed doors. I would disagree with those that feel this way and would ask that you review the minutes of those meetings, and those articles, which the press published in regard to them. I would also ask how is it that those who make these accusations would know how we conduct those board meetings, because until recently they never were present at them. Had they been present, they would have known as far back as December that there were discussions regarding the purchase of the former Frontier Town properties. The information that they put forth is only partial information, used to spin the story to their advantage. The result is that the public is misinformed and not fully made aware of all of the facts. My purpose here is to try to present the facts to the best of my ability.

First, when the discussion of an upcoming tax foreclosure sale first opened last fall, I began discussing with the Town Board the possibility of the Town trying to acquire it. In December the Board authorized me to try to negotiate the transfer of those properties to the Town. Our concern was that after nearly ten years in the hands of the private sector, the property had been neglected and had decayed to the point where three buildings had to be condemned, while the owners were asking at various times in excess of $700,000 for the property. Our fear was that once again this property would fall into similar fate.

The Town Board felt that if we were to acquire it, we could develop some of the property for recreational use, as it adjoins our existing multi-use trail system. Additionally we could work in conjunction with the IDA to develop an area to attract business investors. To my recollection, I have never stated that we wished to develop a mine or market timber on this property as has been reported. Again, our interest is to expand recreational opportunities, which would attract people to the town, which, in turn, we

Viewpoint hope, would lead to business development in the town.

The Town made an offer to the County to purchase the property for taxes owed, minus interest and penalties. The offer was declined and eventually the Frontier Town/Republic Steel Task Force was assigned with the task of providing a recommendation to the full Board of Supervisors as to how to best proceed with sale of those properties. That recommendation was to combine four of the Frontier Town parcels and establish a minimum reserve bid of taxes owed for the property as of the April, 30 sale date. That was estimated to be a little more than $146,000. The recommendation of the Task Force was accepted by the full Board of Supervisors.

Both the Plattsburgh Press and Denton Publications reported the details in March. This information was available to the public; it was not a secret or part of some clandestine plan. Unfortunately, at the time of the auction, when the high bid for these properties was reached, no mention of the reserve was made. Had a statement been made, such as the minimum reserve bid has not been met; it would have saved everyone from the frustration we all feel. There are some auctions, which I am aware of, that start the bidding at the reserve bid. This also would have had a much better result.

That being said, the terms of the contract clearly state that the Board of Supervisors may accept or reject any bid for any reason. I am told that this was also announced at the auction and so should have been clear to everyone. As the bid of $49,500 was far less than the reserve of taxes owed, the Board of Supervisors rejected it. At the next meeting of the North Hudson Town Board I asked how they wished me to proceed. By unanimous vote, I was directed to offer the County $60,000 for the properties.

That pretty much brings us to the present. I would have never, in my wildest imagination, thought that this issue would have escalated to the point that it has.

With that in mind, I made a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors that we try to reach a compromise. My recommendations for that compromise were the minimum that I felt would ensure a permanent, long-term use of the lands for recreational uses. The counter offer made from George Moore did not ensure a permanent, long-term opportunity for the Town of North Hudson.

These are the facts. I believe they can be verified through vari-

ous newspaper articles and the various meeting minutes. Again, this was not some last minute, secretive plan hatched the day after the auction, but rather a discussion that has been, and is, ongoing since last fall.

I have no personal axe to grind with George Moore. I wrote him twice advising him of the upcoming auction and of the lot in the middle of the A Frame parking lot, which we hoped he would be able to acquire, as it would then make that property whole. I am only looking out for what I believe is in the best interest of our Town. I have the greatest respect for anyone that has accomplished what he has in his lifetime. I understand and respect the fact that he would like to make reasonable profit on his investment. I would hope that he could understand and respect the fact that I am only doing what I feel is in the best interest of the economic future of the Town of North Hudson.

Finally, we, very simply, are trying to improve the TownÕ s economic future. To do that we felt that if we were able to maximize the recreational opportunities that will become available with the establishment of a snowmobile connector from Palmer Pond to Newcomb, Minerva, Long Lake, Indian Lake and points west, along with the future state acquisition of the Boreas Ponds tract, that maybe that would attract business growth. I have said we would be happy to get our $60,000 investment back, or even give the property to the right business. If that would create jobs and get the property back on the tax roll, our $60,000 investment would be considered a great success. We are not speculating on this property. We are not seeking any profit; we are only seeking business growth through the recreational opportunities that are possible with the above mentioned State plans in the North Hudson and greater 5 Towns, Upper Hudson Recreation Hub area.

As has been publicized, a petition was circulated to bring this to a vote. Although the petition was invalid for a number of reasons, the town board voted to bring this to public referendum. This may be the most important decision this Town will make in recent memory. It will decide our economic future. I think the question boils down to, does the Town of North Hudson want to control it’s own destiny, or does it want George Moore to?

Ronald Moore, Supervisor Town of North Hudson

Festival Guild announces new director in Judy Walker

TICONDEROGA Ñ The Ticonderoga Festival Guild has appointed Judy Walker as Director, replacing Cathie Burdick, who retired on May 31 after holding the Executive DirectorÕ s position for 17 years.

Judy is relatively new to Ticonderoga, having purchased a home in town five years ago then retiring here with her husband Ed three years ago.

“My first summer in Ticonderoga I was amazed by the number and variety of programs offered to people of all ages,Ó Walker said. Ò I took my grandchildren to a few Arts Trek performances and thought the programs were great fun for the children and adults as well. When offered an opportunity to join the Ticonderoga Festival Guild, two years ago, I took it because I wanted to help bring performing arts to Ticonderoga and the surrounding areas. Ò Moving to the DirectorÕ s position is a big step for me,Ó she added. Ò Fortunately Cathie Burdick did an outstanding job of lining up the 2014 programs so the transition is going well. Now we need to make sure we successfully deliver everything she scheduled.Ó The Arts Trek programs for children will be held in the Knights of Columbus pavilion (behind the Knights of Columbus Hall on

Montcalm Street in Ticonderoga) on Wednesday mornings at 10:15 a.m. All programs are free but donations from grandparents or parents are always gratefully accepted.

The season line up is: Storytelling and Dulcimer Playing by Tim VanEgmond on July 9: Hansel & Gretel a Childrens’ Opera by the Seagle Colony on July 16; “Rachel and Paul Revere Ride Again!” by Jessa Piaia and Lee Reithmiller on July 23; “Songs of

the American Revolution” by Tom Callinan on July 30; “David and GoliathÓ by the Adirondack Shakespeare Company on Aug. 6; and Jim Napolitano and the Nappy’s Puppets will perform Ò Father Goose Tales,Ó Aug. 13.

Two annual family events are scheduled – Ticonderoga Talent Night July 29 at 7 p.m. ($5 admission fee) and the Ticonderoga Community Band will perform a free concert Aug. 11 at 6:30 p.m.

Both programs will be held at the Knights of Columbus Pavilion.

On Aug. 16, the Patriot Brass will present an old fashioned Band Concert at 5 p.m. at the Gazebo in the Park. The Patriot Brass members are professional brass and percussion musicians who perform at low cost for veterans at parades, ceremonies, fundraisers and more.

The Curbstone Chorus will return to Ticonderoga on Sept. 14 at 3 p.m. to perform at the Ticonderoga High School. They are members of the Barbershop Harmony Society and have earned a reputation as an outstanding male barbershop harmony chorus.

The Ticonderoga Festival Guild is looking forward to sharing these programs during the summer where Ticonderoga celebrates 250 years of existence.

CENTER: Cathie Burdick turns over the Ticonderoga Festival Guild Director’s Book to Judy Walker, the new Director.

CROWN POINT Ñ The popular Lake Champlain Bridge connects history as well as the states of Vermont and New York. A tour has been created for everyone who is interested in learning more about the history of what one can see while walking across the arched bridge.

On Sunday, July 27, 2014, starting at 1:00 p.m., state historic site managers Elsa Gilbertson (Chimney Point, VT) and Tom Hughes (at Crown Point NY) will lead a two-hour guided roundtrip walk across the bridgeÕ s sidewalks.

Tour-goers may park at Crown Point State Historic Site and meet at the entrance to the siteÕ s museum. The fee is $6 for adults, free for children under 15, and includes sameday admission to both the Chimney Point and Crown Point museums after the tour.

Comfortable footwear and sunscreen are suggested. The scenic views are remarkable, so binoculars and still photography are welcome.

Over the centuries, this crossing has been used by woodlands Indians, the French, the British and Americans. The narrow channel passage for water vessels and the peninsulas, or points, on the east and west sides made it one of the most strategic military locations along Lake Champlain throughout the 1700s.

The $76 million replacement Lake Champlain Bridge opened in 2011. The construction cost was 80 percent federally funded.

July 26, 2014 DonnellyÕ s wife, Chantele, who was traveling in another vehicle with other members of their party, placed the initial 911 call.

He and his son, Matthieu, 17, approached the bus and started pulling the injured out of the overturned bus.

Stephane estimated he was driving between 65 and 68 miles per hour while preparing to pass. Ò ThatÕ s the speed limit,Ó he said. Ò I opened the top and people started getting out,Ó Matthieu said. Ò Some people were hurt, some cuts. A lot of blood, not big injuries. People were in shock.Ó Matthieu and Stephen assisted authorities in translation efforts from French to English.

The family was on their way to Clearwater, Fla. They said they will continue with their travels.

Smith commended the family later at a press conference without releasing their names. Ò Each family risked their own safety and did everything they could,Ó he said. Ò They need to be commended for the human value of their efforts.Ó A collision reconstruction unit will study where and why the bus left the road and where it traveled. New York State Department of Transportation officials will also open an investigation, Smith said.

The bus will be transferred to the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit in Ray Brook. Ò We still have whatÕ s commonly referred to as a Ô black boxÕ

Authorities will download that data to help piece together the causes, he said. Ò It will give us some indication what was going

on.Ó State and federal agencies were on the scene alongside members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Ò We will coordinate with what the passengers believed happened and put that together with the evidence,Ó Smith said.

On Friday evening, a tour bus emblazoned with the name “Menard” waited in ECH’s parking lot to ferry the survivors back to Canada. Inside, investigators from the state policeÕ s Bureau of Criminal Investigation attempted to piece together what had happened.

Outside, a scrum of reporters from Canadian news agencies remained as 17 patients were brought in from Glens Falls and Moses-Ludington for transport back to Canada.

ECH vans later blocked the press from the survivors as they boarded the bus for the long drive back.

Online, a Facebook page for Mercier, a brunette with a mischevious smile, had been set up. Ò I was in the bus,Ó wrote Alain Blais in French. Ò My condolence to the family, parents and friends.Ó Ò I was also on the bus,Ó wrote Veronique Blais. Ò All my thoughts and prayers go out to you.Ó Ò As a Dad who loves my two girls of 15 and 11, and his boy of 13, I can only humbly offer to the parents and friends my sincere condolences,” wrote Richard Desgagne. “Keep in your memories and treasure the moments that allowed you to live this small shooting star.Ó

Food co-op launches campaign

TICONDEROGA Ñ The Ticonderoga Natural Foods Co-op will launch its Ô LetÕ s Open the DoorsÕ campaign to recruit new member-owners needed to open a market in downtown Ticonderoga. The summer-long membership drive will kick-off at StreetFest in Ticonderoga on Saturday, July 26. Membership applications will be on-hand at the Co-opÕ s table located in front of the PRIDE of Ticonderoga office located at 111 Montcalm Street.

The Ticonderoga Natural Foods Co-op (TNFC) will be member-owned but open to the public. The Co-op will connect local consumers with the abundant, high-quality foods and agricultural products from the Adirondacks, Champlain Valley and neighboring regions. Member-owners make a one-time $250 equity investment– a share in the co-op and receive benefits including store discounts, rebates when the Co-op earns a surplus income, and a voice in the Co-opÕ s decision making. Ò The Ticonderoga Natural Foods Co-op came out of a community conversation back in 2012 about the lack of a locally owned grocery store in Ticonderoga. In the months since then, we have assembled a steering committee, held a logo contest, and written the co-opÕ s by-laws,Ó said TNFC Steering Committee Member, Sharon Reynolds. Ò This campaign is about taking the momentum we have built to the next level and actively recruiting member-owners of the Co-op. We need investments from at least 300 new member-owners to make it happen. Simply put, the faster we can bring them aboard, the faster we can open the store.Ó Ò After months of work, itÕ s exciting to be at the point where we can launch this campaign and give people the opportunity to get in on the ground floor,” said TNFC Steering Committee Member, Eric Stoddard. Ò ItÕ s not every day that you can say you helped start a cooperative business that will make a major improvement in our community. And it’s definitely not every grocery store you walk into that you can say you own and have a say in its future. But thatÕ s exactly what new co-op member-owners will be able to do once they join.Ó The mission of the Ticonderoga Natural Foods Co-op is to create and support a community-owned Co-op that believes in the importance of healthy living, sustainability and offering locally produced products. We are committed to providing high quality goods and services at affordable prices through member-participation and employment opportunities. For more information on becoming a member, please visit www.ticfoodcoop.blogspot. com, www.facebook.com/ticonderogacoop, call 518-585-6366, or email: tifoodcoop@gmail.com.

Adirondack Distance Festival deemed an economic driver

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — An Ohio university researched the effect of the Adirondack Marathon Distance Festival on the North Country economy and found favorable results.

Shawn Rohlin, Ph.D., an economics professor at Kent State University’s College of Business Administration, was joined by graduate students in analyzing the impact of the annual races run through Schroon and Chestertown and reported a $1 million impact in the local economy for the 2013 event. Ò This study highlights the strong positive effect the Adirondack Marathon has on the local economy,Ó Rohlin said in a release. Ò With a large percentage of runners being from out-oftown, the majority of the economic impact came from non-local participants spending money while visiting the area for the race. Overall, the race brought roughly $1 million additionally to the region, which increased local residentsÕ earnings by over $300,000.Ó The boost came from many expected areas, as the 2013 races drew 1,266 runners from throughout the United States - including Alaska - along with international runners from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Costa Rica, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong, Slovakia and the United Kingdom. Main sectors impacted included lodging, restaurants, entertainment and bars. Ò It is stunning when you look at the number of countries that have been represented from around the world,” race director Joel

Schroon Lake Central names honor rolls SCHROON — Schroon Lake Central School has announced its honor rolls for the final marking period of the 2013-14 school year.

12th Grade High Honors - Sam Foote, Shannon Garland, Megan Hall, Rhiannon Hoffman, Caitlyn Jarrell, Justin Lough, Ian Lowe, Thang Loung , Caleb Maisonville, Eric Paradis, Robert Rose, Grant Thatcher, Abigail Veverka, Abigail Wisser Honors – Kiana Fiore, Marissa Gero, Meghan Hedden, Travis Hood , Desiree Lanoue Alexis Subra, Tyler Swartwout 11th Grade High Honors – Jack Higgins, Joelle Kowalka, Joseph Maisonville, Tanner Stone, Mor-

Friedman said. Ò And it is gratifying to know that most runners leave here with such a positive image of the race and community.

Each year runners come from most U.S. states and throughout Canada. Other countries that have been represented: Australia, Brazil, Belgium, Bolivia, Egypt, France, Great Britain, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Mexico, Morocco, St. Maarten, Nigeria, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Costa Rica, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong and Slovakia.”

RohlinÕ s research said the event also generates an, Ò employment effectÓ that is equal to 10.4 full-time jobs for the area. Ò We knew the Adirondack Marathon Distance Festival had a significant impact on the local economy, but I was wowed to see the research results compiled by Kent State University,” Friedman said.

Patrick Siler, executive director of the Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce, said another key impact of the festival is how it extends the summer season into the fall. Ò The Adirondack Marathon is a perfect example of the fantastic events the Schroon Lake Region and the broader Adirondack Park have to offer after the summer ends,Ó Siler said. Ò Many visitors from other parts of the country might only think of the Adirondacks as a perfect summer destination. The chamber and its members are working hard to spread the word about what our region has to offer in the autumn, winter, and spring as well: unparalleled natural beauty, of course, but also great events and attractions. We owe a great deal to the volunteers and organizers that make the marathon possible because it draws an incredible number of visitors from all over the world to our region, sub-

stantially strengthening our economic viability as a year-round destination.Ó Ò ItÕ s a great tool to give us the opportunity to demonstrate to local businesses the strength of the Adirondack Marathon Distance Festival,Ó Friedman said. Ò I believe the marathon represents the best of Schroon Lake and our neighboring communities.Ó Another positive of the marathon, according to Friedman, is how it brings local communities together. Ò What sets the marathon apart from other local events is the extraordinary community support it engenders,Ó he said. Ò The almost 700 volunteers from the area that turn out year after year, rain or shine, they are the engine that powers the event. In fact the runnersÕ perception of our event is that the entire community turns out. There is no doubt that the spirit of the community is elevated on race weekend. We may be a small town, but we are mighty.Ó The 2014 Adirondack Marathon Distance Festival takes place Sept. 27-28 in the towns of Schroon Lake and Chestertown.
